Hello Storm,

where is the ending line between "good" shipping and "bad" shipping?

I'm talking about fictional characters AND real persons from various media and genres ,canon and non-canon.

As a BL fan and mostly a fanfic reader for almost 15+ years (!), four years ago Jikook became my first rps couple and I decided it will be definitely the LAST .

Some limits and boundaries around BTS' shipping community got crossed several times with poor taste and insane thoughts .

So now I started to questioning things ..for example, maybe it's better to go back to canon BL-media, leave the members alone and focusing - only musically speaking - to the group ?

Going cold turkey on Ao3 ? Avoiding shipping AND supporting spaces in general?

Too many questions and I admit I'm a overthinker, but after the Tkk french book maybe is really getting out of control for everyone.

Hello my love! As a very avid shipper since a very young age, who before Jikook, doesn't really engage in RPS spaces either, I 1000% get what you mean. So here is where I'm going to link you to a bunch of different posts I've made before that cover this topic. Will you come back and let me know if they helped or not? 💜

This post covers the question what is shipping culture in kpop

This post is about the question, what are ship wars?

This post is I think where I draw that line of what is good shipping (supporting Jikook as individuals and potentially queer ones at that) and bad shipping.

Dealing with rumors about RPS ships by shippers post here

Respecting Privacy Post here

And here is my post where I talk about fanfiction in real person ships. You'll notice the tkkr hate book is an example that falls directly under my "things not to do and cross lines and aren't okay" paragraph. Lol

In the end, do whatever you are most comfortable with. Outside of my blog and a few others, I do not engage with a ton of RPS fics. I read some that are sent to me from friends I trust to engage in that stuff nicely and correctly and that's basically it. I've gotten a few recs from here also and only read the ones that sounded like I would be comfortable with. In fandom spaces, you have to interact with them in whatever way works best for you personally. And if you can quit ao3 cold turkey, I would so shocked and impressed 😂 I could never. I have 10 ao3 tabs open right now lmfao

Hope those posts help 💜💜💜

My one concern for Rlainarin in Wind and Truth, is that like-

yes we are getting more time with Renarin than ever before (which I will forever be ecstatic about) but he is, Yk, still a side character at this point. He’s getting more, but the bar is pretty damn low.

So, I think Sanderson has a difficult thing to balance here. He has to pull off the romance in as satisfying a way possible, while not letting it consume their entire characters in this book. (Take time to note here that while RENARIN is getting more time than ever, Rlain is only promised to be in the Renarin segments. Tbh I’m expecting him to get sorta the same time as in ROW or a bit less.)

so I kind of think, with the time we have, there are two likely options. And I’m probably wrong, but here’s what I think:

A; They have a well fleshed-out (for side characters) romance, that is decently well-written but absorbs their POV chapters a lot and while great, will be a little disappointing because we want them to be doing their own things as well. This is the less likely one.

B; The characters get their own stuff to do with mini-arcs probably, and then get the occasional chapter progressing their romance, which is otherwise kinda background. Bad news with this one is that it may mean we don’t get full closure…. But hey that’s what fanfic is for. Probably more likely.

I think most people would prefer B, and it is more likely, so- yay!

As much as I’d love both options, we have to admit at some point that they are not the main characters (for some reason-) yet at least. Hang in there for another decade Renarin, we’ll get there.

anyway I did not really think this through a whole bunch and I’m not expecting to be right but hey. That’s just a theory.

A GAAAY THEORYYY

[thegazette5]

I've found out that reita is gone three months later

so yesterday at night, august 15, I found out that reita was dead... and I couldn't' believe it, it was so surreal and I cried reading the words of ruki for him. it pains me to know the gazette members were friends, mostly reita and uruha that used to know way before.

tbh I haven't listened to the gazette since 2016

I met the gazette's music at 18 or something like that and

now I'm 36 and I have clinic depression and when the gazette made their second world tour, the country I live in it's close to argentina, I had a friend who had an argentinian friend that got me a front row ticket for the gazette concert, I got the flight tickets for me and my friend, and then I had a shitty nationality that didn't let me go anywhere (I already changed my nationality) anyway, I didn't get the visa to argentina, I was so sad I wanted to end everything. I went straight to the psychiatrist, it was the first time I really wanted to end everything, every bad thing that had happened to me, not being able to got to the gazette's concert was the last blow, and someone I thought as my best friend back then, she got to go and it made me so sad and angry 'cause she wasn't even a real fan compared to me, she just happened to listen to their songs that year and go (she dedicated ito to me 'cause she missed me, and hell I told her 'bout that song's meaning, that's my proof she wasn't a fan)

so I stopped listening to the gazette, but this year I felt like listening to, and last night I was listening to layla by eric clapton because a kaleido star's fanfic I was reading with the characters layla and yuri, and I wanted a name for the main female character of the book I was trying to write, I thought layla was cool, but there's already too many L in my main male character's name, so I thought of reila (I thought it was reira) and there was "what happened to reita the gazette" on the search while I was looking for reila's lyrics, I thought it was a illness or accident, but no, reita is gone.

I found out that reita is gone while listening to eric clapton playing guitar.

I went to wikipedia and I thought a troll edited the page, a horrible joke, but it was real and it means I'll never go to a the gazette's concert in my life, maybe I still can, but it won't be the same without reita, he is the gazette and he is my fave bassist and I remember when I was young and grew up with the gazette's songs, I got excited just by watching their pvs on the screen, everytime I read their interviews were so inspiring, just a bunch of young adult friends that decided to pursue the same dream together. I wish I had that kind of friends, and let's face it, most jrock groups break after a few years, the gazette were friends with the same dream that lasted over two decades, they were losers that had each other and followed their dreams and made them come true and to me the gazette isn't one of the best rock/metal groups of japan, to me they're one of the best in this whole universe.

and I went to two aerosmith lives where they were in their 60s and I dreamed of the the gazette were going to rock 'til they were old in his 70s.

tbh I'm curious about reita's passing, I want to know why, last year matthew perry died and I love friends, it was shocking, but I did know why, however asian artists are more discreet than western ones and we may never now about what happened to reita. there's so many rumours and the gazette haven't released new songs since 2021? I guess there'll be a new bassist and I won't hate on him, but it won't be the same.

reita was so young, not 45 or 47, he was 42 and I don't want to believe in the horrible rumours. whatever happened to him, it was his life, if there's heaven, another life or another world I hope he's in peace.

and I'm hurt and I'm not ready to listen to the gazette music yet.

Hiiii can I request prince chuuya x reader in an arranged marriage?

Alright, I liked this idea but it wasn't specific enough to turn into a story, plus I don't think I could turn this into anything other than a oneshot, so... Here's a oneshot I'm quite proud of! Unless this wasn't for the event, in that case, here's your oneshot!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

You didn't want this. Why did this happen?! You came from a very rich family, your parents being owners of a HUGE business. You don't know how business stuff works (It's a fanfic I ain't doing a whole bunch of research as to why this very specific scenario could ever take place) but for some reason, you and THE PRINCE had to get MARRIED! You despised this fact, but it was for the business... Well... You didn't care, you didn't want to get married to some snobby prince with anger issues. Prince Chuuya was known for his horrible anger issues, he was pretty scary... You hated him, but alas, the wedding day is today. You sigh as the makeup artist finishes your makeup. Yes. Your parents got you a makeup artist.

"It's your special day, you're getting married!" Was their reasoning. You tried pretending to be sick, but your damn parents could see right through you. They were acting so sweet to you, but that's just because they're gonna make money off this marriage.

The makeup artist has to push you through the doors of the church, and you ungracefully stumble into the room. with all these people around there's no use in running. You gaze up at your soon-to-be husband, pissed off by the vail covering your eyes. Sure you can still see, but it still angered you. Chuuya notices your gaze as you walk down the isle and scowls, rolling his eyes. You shoot him a glare before tripping over nothing, falling face first into the carpet atop the grass. Some of the audience gasps, while others give a light chuckle. You were surprised to see Chuuya holding in his laughter. Either way you're incredibly embarrassed.

"I'm ok!" You scurry to your feet. You frown as you realize you ruined the flowers, they were pretty, but whatever. You continue to walk and blah blah blah. When you finally reach the end of the isle, the sun shines in your eyes as you try to look at Chuuya, looking away because of the sun. Chuuya wears his normal scowl. You don't listen to anything that's going on until

"You may kiss the bride."

You were disgusted, you didn't want to kiss this.. this idiot! He leans in, you're heart beats loudly... Why were you so flustered?! Why was he hot?! He leans in super close, his lips gently brushing against yours, close enough to seem like you two were kissing. The crowd cheers as the hot sun beams down. You throw the (ruined) bouquet out into the crowd, some fat, rich man catches it. You cringe, looking at your new husband. He smirks

"Your face is red"

"Shut up!!!"

"HEY! NO YOU SHUT UP!" You're guys parents shoot you glares and you both quickly shut up. The death stare he gives you tells you all you need to know about how he feels... he doesn't like you.

Throughout the next month of living in the palace, Chuuya doesn't even acknowledge you. Maybe the occasional glare while eating dinner or passing by in the halls, but that's it. Until... One day his overbearing parents announce you two don't love eachother as much as you should, and they're sending you both on a couples vacation where you're sharing a bed in a hotel room! You both groan at the same time

"HEY! YOU CANT GROAN AT THE SAME TIME AS ME!" Chuuya yells at you

"I DID IT FIRST, YOURE THE ONE WHO COPIED ME!!" You defend. Chuuyas about to yell again when his parents intervene

"This is what we mean." His mom sighs "You two have to get along, if you're both gonna be king and queen, you at least have to have the ability to collaborate. The only reason you're sharing a bed is because your father is a sucker for enemies to lovers trope"

And so, they send you and the angry redhead end up in a hotel room.. together... You avoid eachother all day, until bedtime...

"Alright dumbass, there's only one bed, so you have to sleep on the floor." Chuuya collapses on the bed, exhausted from the day he's had.

"I'm, excuse me? Oh hell nah" you push him over, scooting in next to him on the Queen sized mattress. A vain pops out of his head

"There's not enough room for both of us!!"

"Yes there is!!" You hiss. He pushes you off the bed. After you get up, you lunge at him, using your body weight to throw the both of you off the bed, landing on top of him. You burst out laughing, and he gives a slight chuckle, though quickly hid behind the usual scowl. You fall onto his chest while laughing over the situation and adrenaline.

"Get off of me!" A faint blush covers his cheeks

"Ah, sorry." You're laughter dies down but the smile on your face unwavering as you climb onto the bed, relaxing and giggling. Chuuya finally gives in and rolls over you purposely. A small shriek escapes your lips as he does so, but then... He smashes his lips against yours... Well that was unexpected...

Cotl Fanfic - Thoughts & Opinions?

So, this is the first post on this new account and it's a question for my Cult of the Lamb fandom pookies. I just recently got the game and I'm obsessed with it and have been thinking about writing a BUNCH of fanfiction.

So I wanted notes and suggestions on some things, and I might even make polls on some of them, starting most importantly with the topic below:

Gender, Pronouns, and Sexuality that are so far, are solely based on vibes and what I've seen the rest of the fandom agreeing on (And canon of course):

- The Lamb's identity will probs change depending on the fic type, but for most of them they will be assigned male at birth, He/They & Pansexual. Simple and sweet because our lamb boi is just tryna SURVIVE out here in a cult of idiots that can't even cook their own food or clean up their own shit. (Is this just me wanting to write more he/they characters in my stories because I'm he/they? Yes. Yes, it is folks.)

- Narinder is transgender male He/Him. I'm making him transgender male because I said so. I want more trans rep guys, leave me alone. & Homosexual because if his whole vibe and personality doesn't scream gay angsty emo cat I don't know what else in this world does.

- Leshy is cisgender He/Him. I can imagine him experimenting with they/them though. I may include something on that... If anyone has any notes on that I'm all ears. Best Bi. His level of chaos just radiates ADHD bisexual with way too much energy and free time.

- Heket is cis-gender She/Her. The only girlie in the family, fates have mercy on her and her patience. A lesbian for sure. I think the whole fandom just sort of agrees on this, right? With like, lots of wives because she is a highkey baddie? At least that's the impression I've been given based on all of her fanart and simps.

- Calamari- Sorry, I mean Kallamar, is cis-gendered He/Him. I was thinking of making him a transgender man too? Idk, I've just been told the cis's need rep too, and it made me gag and now I want to wave my magic writer wand and make all the characters trans and nonbinary. Opinions on that are welcome. Anyway. A pansexual, and I hear he canonically had multiple spouses? Despite looking like he has zero rizz. I mean, damn. Good for him I guess. Go squid boy, go.

In this, he's gonna be single though, because I like the idea of him struggling to find new spouses and Heket laughing at his struggle.

- Shamura is absolutely nonbinary they/them. A friend has told me this is canon, and that people may gun for my fucking throat if I change it. Not that I really want to, it fits. Shamura is lowkey one of my favorites. I just like spiders. I'm also deeply afraid of them and cry if I see them irl. I also think they're bisexual in the exact opposite way as Leshy, in that they are a calm, mildly tired wine aunt of the family, mixed with the senile grandparent that snores loudly then stops and everyone pauses and looks at each other like 'Are... Are they fucking dead?'

Anyway, this is a long post, but I needed to get this out there before I started writing stuff for this fandom. Any opinions are welcome, but no bullying other people's thoughts, and be chill guys.

Fr. I'm like a skittish cat, you'll scare me away, and then no one gets fanfiction.

[whattheflameo-linbeifong]

my personal thoughts/headcanons on shipping lin, in case anyone is wondering:

Lin is not straight. A bottom line headcanon for me is that during/post TLOK, if she ends up with someone long term, that someone is a woman. Maybe Lin is a lesbian who was suffering from comphet when she was younger; maybe she still feels attraction to a man every now and then, but either way, after how things ended with Tenzin she decided she was done with men and their bullshit and would only be dating women. Am I projecting? Well, shhhh

Honestly, there's not really any character that we see on screen in Korra that I think would be a good fit for her. Maybe if Kya was more fleshed out or Izumi had more than like, two lines - maybe if either of them had ever really interacted with her so we could understand how they get along - but as things are I just don't have any evidence and can't even say I feel the vibes. She would probably fit best with another earthbender (or an airbender, I was going to say RIP to that idea post-Linzin breakup, but then I realized that there could be someone among the new airbenders) for reasons I may or may not expand on in fanfic I may or may not write

She comes across to me as a very difficult person whose partner would have to be someone pretty special. They'd simultaneously have to have thick enough skin to handle the ways she can be brash and emotionally unavailable, while delicate enough to get through her shell and help her open up and process things without spooking her or making her feel cornered. And of course they would have to be someone she knows is 100% trustworthy, because if her partner were to share something that she wanted to stay private, she would be mortified. (I need to clarify that I don't mean like, the normal amount of mortified that you would expect from anyone in this situation; I mean, like, her privacy and space to process her feelings, trauma, etc. in her own way and on her own time is one of the things she values most, and if she let someone in to that part of herself and they betrayed her it would probably be her breaking point. Again, am I projecting? Well, shhhh.) IMO OurImpavidHeroine's OC Lozan fills this role really well (and Impavid really gets Lin in general), it's just that - as I already said - I really don't see Lin ending up with a man long term.

She's incredibly physical when she's in a relationship. Earthbenders as a whole are a pretty physical bunch just thanks to the nature of the element, but when you have seismic sense, it makes sex mind-blowing and intense every time because you can feel your partner with your earthbending as well as your non-bending senses. (I may or may not expand on this more in fanfic I may or may not write)

Honestly at the end of the day I ship her with myself 🤷 but I get the vibe that's not terribly uncommon with Lin fans lol

@purlty23 tagged me in This game and I'm super excited about it! (I tried to reblog the original post and just tack on but tumblr hates me)

Thanks Blue, this was so fun!

I'm tagging: @amara-among-the-stars, @mac-and-thefox, @littlemoon-beam, @divine-misfortune and whoever else also wants to expose their sins to the internet. Under the cut, because LONG.

Xena Warrior Princess - Passive Enjoyer Only passive because I was too young to be anything else. Barely counts, except that this show was my first real obsession so I have to include it. I dressed up as Xena for halloween when I was like…5. The pictures are incredible.

Good Charlotte - Mostly passive As is a trend with a lot of these, I wrote a little fan fic, and daydreamed a thousand scenarios, but never shared any of it. I was mildy obsessed with Benji Martin, but I didn't really get involved beyond that.

LOTR - Creative Enjoyer The first fan-fic I ever posted on the internet (I was twelve, people were mean). I didn't make any friends within the fandom. But I was so determined to write for it that I had an entire novel planned out--that eventually became an original book idea instead.

Harry Potter- Mostly Passive I read a lot of HP fanfic, but not as much as others. I didn't get involved in online conversations. I did dabble in writing some fics that I hid from the world and never finished.

The Boston Red Sox - Creative Enjoyer Ok. Now you know why I said I was exposing myself. Look I was like 12-14. My best friend and I filled entire notebooks with our MANY chaptered fic that spanned the entire 2004 Red Sox Season, that we started the day they won the world series that year. We hand wrote it all, I transcribed it into my computer where it still exists somewhere. It was our EVERYTHING. And it has never (and will never) see the light of day. I may have posted some Red Sox fic on the internet in my Live Journal days, and I made a bunch of online friends within that community, but they never saw THE fic.

Rammstein - Creative Enjoyer Again, my best friend and I had a notebook with a long form rammstein fic in. We didn't go as far with this one. And I didn't get involved in any online communities. Though, our love for Rammstein lived a lot longer than our fic writing did.

Twilight - Creative Enjoyer In that I wrote and posted a single fic about Alice.

Lost - Passive Enjoyer. I read a billion Skate fics. Probably thought about writing my own, but I don't think I ever actually did. Was obsessed with this show until the last season. I still have never seen the last episode.

Vampire Academy (THE BOOKS) - Passive Enjoyer. Not a lot online. Read some fic. Was so obsessed with this book that I started to write a fanfic where we got to see some of the story from Dimitri's persepective and accidentally created and entire new plot and new characters and accidentally created my own CHILD of an original novel because of it.

Grishaverse (Shadow and Bone/Six of Crows/Rule of Wolves) - Passive Enjoyer Loved these books. Loved every single character. Read as much fanfic as I could find. Accidentally spoiled a death in one of the books with fanfiction.

Avenged Sevenfold - Creative Enjoyer Short lived. Read some INCREDIBLE fics on the basically defunct site Mibba and thought "I can do that" and was fighting for my life in college. Wrote a few chapters of a fic. Got decent feedback. Got bored immediately.

Supernatural - passive enjoyer Read some fic. Took me like 15 tries to actually get through the whole show. Adored it, never went very far with it.

Marvel (Specifically The Winter Soldier) - Passive Enjoyer. I should have been a creative enjoyer, but was too afraid to write anything or put myself out there. (I spent all of my time after high school/college thinking that fanfic was a waste of time and I should never write it because I needed to be serious. What a waste). Still mildly obsessed with BuckyNat. I adore Bucky and Black Widow. If they put out another good movie I could see myself falling down that rabbit hole and actually letting myself land. The trailer for The Winter Soldier changed my brain chemistry (nevermind the whole move).

Fallout 4 - Passive Enjoyer I could read Sole Survivor/Paladin Danse fics every day forever. I know that's insane. Stop looking at me like that.

Ghost - Creative Enjoyer. Finally allowed myself to write whatever the fuck I want and have fun with it and it has changed my entire fucking life. Wish I'd done it sooner. So glad I got to do it now and with all of you. ♥

Hey bestie✨love your fanfics! May I humbly request a Glitchy Rex x insecure reader? Perhaps autistic too? If not thats cool ✨

im gunna answer this in a bulleted headcanon typa post, which is hopefully fine bc if i write One more fanfic, esp w glitchy i Will explode ( and yes i am still procrastinating on the one i have a draft of. i got two of my back teeth pulled out and am recovering so thats my excuse + its so long and too much writing for me to comprehend rn + I do not have many "new" ideas )

newayz, ofc ofc!! we love our autistic couple

glitchy red x insecure ( and autistic ) reader !

♡ guess who's also autistic. thats right babey its glitchy!!!!!!! he's the ADHDtism creature. along with a lot of other stuff. but rlly whatd u expect. he's a red.

♡ due to this, he'll happily listen in on your rambles or partake in activities that make you happy. you got special interests? he might not understand a word of any of it for some things, but he'll happily listen and intake the info and try to add to the conversation by asking questions. he likes your voice as its an extreme comfort of his, so your rambling is very nice.

♡ i like to imagine before he somehow gets out you twos day to day life when hes still inside of the cartridge is just turning it on and you idly rambling to him while he listens, gives input, and updates you on how he is over there. you are a v comforting presence to him and you give him a reason to want to leave.

♡ he himself would ramble so much abt pokemon to you. my mind is mentally metronoming glitchy hcs between "he would hate a lot of pokemon stuff" or "he would be so autistic abt pokemon" . prob changes depending on the time of day and what he's talking abt specifically, but he does like at least explaining or talking about his whole... living situation in the cartridge, along with pokemon and their stats and whats the best for certain gyms, and strats and stuff like that, along with really obscure facts. he's seen it all and he's seen a bunch of different players playstyles, so it's natural to him to have absorbed that kinda info and be interested in it. competitive mf...

he is literally this image.

♡ if you're ever self-deprecating around him or something of the sort, he's going to verbally attack you with compliments. moreso responding with like "What? That's stupid." and maybe following up with a compliment to the part of yourself you insulted, eg "Your face is the prettiest thing I've set eyes on. It's not ugly." he'll also be sure to kiss around that spot more often and compliment you more often and more casually.

♡ similarly, if anyone insults you intentionally or not he is on their ass, like a fucking rabid guard dog if he was present for when it happened. he'll be yelling at them, or quietly telling them off with like, a simple "Shut up." or something, depending on how bad it is. if you feel bad about it he'll once again try to reassure you that you're perfect the way you are to him and that whoever told you that was scum. he likes to be aggressive and make clever yet insulting quips since he doesn't have much of an outlet for his internal rage, and it also makes him act all cool so he sort of enjoys when somebody is being a dick because it just means he can make you watch him verbally destroy them. and he likes to impress you.

♡ if this happens but its like, prolonged harassment, he is literally going to doxx whoevers being a bitch towards you /hj. moreso, he's going to track them down and try to threaten them so badly that they don't do jack shit to you after that.

♡ i like to think glitchy is constantly moving some part of his body. he's pretty impatient, and will usually resort to thumping his foot quietly or drumming his fingers along a table. stuff like that. he will also often shove his hands in his pockets and play around with the fabric inside of it. give him a stressball, that shit will be popped so quickly. he also likes to idly throw something up in the air and catch it if hes reaallly bored. he usually does this w/ his pokeballs.

♡ this is good in a relationship if you like touch, cuz' glitchy will put his attention on you when hes bored or zoning out, and will instead often touch you or kiss you or talk to you. one of his favorite things is brushing his thumb over your hand, or running his hands through your hair or something.

♡ because you are probably pretty open with your interests to him, finding gifts for you comes pretty easy. he also just has a good natural sense for gift-giving, i'd think. like he subconsciously sees something and goes "oh, maybe you'd like that" in his head. don't ask how he gets these, he probably doesn't have money ( he manipulates his glitchy powers to duplicate the item like missingno, or just straight up teleports it to you/your home or something. likely both. )

♡ he really just thinks your the sweetest thing ever, and also you know a looot of stuff he doesn't. he's new in the real world, so watching you explain very specific things that happen in real life to him fascinates him, genuinely... its another reason why he loves your rambles. he could listen to you explain anything with a lovestruck expression ( ...which is constantly a resting neutral expression with a small smile sometimes, he's not super expressive unless hes mad. )

♡ if you're averse to certain foods or textures, he'll learn that quickly, since he does try to cook for you on occasion... maleeewife.. on first impression to most people that aren't you, he acts like he doesn't really care about you but he really really does - he's just not that expressive a lot of the time and he also is awkward with PDA.

♡ he himself probably gets overwhelmed with or icked out by a lot of food tbh so he eats pretty slowly and also has to gradually get used to certain foods with overwhelming flavors. he's used to literally not eating anything so this makes sense. its also the 'tism tho.

♡ he likes to cuddle while you do any activities you like. its comfy and he gets to see what ur doing. win/win.

♡ he's touchstarved but also hates getting touched suddenly. if you are the same he relates. due to this, early on in the relationship he'll instinctively flinch if you touch him w/o warning probably. but the further u get the more he follows you around like a lovesick puppy yearning for your touch

♡ overall he just loves u soooo sooo much.. you can say literally anything to him and he'll hum and nod and go "Uhhuh." with a small tiny little itty bitty smile on his face... this is where he feels safest. in your arms or holding you in his own while you just talk to him.

Say, mind doing a fanfic of (My TADC OC) Mooz’s Friendly Relationship with Kaufmo before Pomni’s Arrival where they are like best pals, and maybe add a scene where he just stands at Kaufmo’s Door after the events of the pilot episode had happened, please?

Here you go. It is going to take place when Mooz first arrived into the Digital World. Hope you don't mind if my oc does appear in this.

A new being popped up onto a stage, suddenly looking around in a state of confusion and panic. Music was playing while a bunch of objects floated around. The being quickly dodged the objects while backing away.

However, he soon found himself accidentally bumping into someone. The being jumped as he watched a purple jackrabbit in magenta overalls, a tall, white king chess piece in a purple robe, and a ribbon-like creature stumble down. The ribbon creature's comedy mask broke, revealing her tragedy face.

The music stopped as everyone turned to look at the being. "Caine, is this one of your NPCs or is this a new sucker?" The jackrabbit asked. "Because if it's a new character, we're gonna have to redo this whole theme song." He had a rather mischievous grin on his face.

"I'm not doing that again," A mix-and-match toy said to the jackrabbit, her arms crossed while she looked unamused.

"Serious, newbie…" A humanoid wax figurine stared at the being. "Please be careful next time. Do you have any idea as to how long it took for us to rehearse that?" She placed her hands on her hips.

"Calm down, snow princess~." The jackrabbit said her, grinning.

"Uh, who are you people?" The being asked. "Where exactly am I?"

"Take it easy, new stuff," A ragdoll said. "We've all been there on our first day of coming here. But you eventually get used to this."

"My, my!" A floating AI whose "face" resembled teeth flew down to the being. "It appears that a new human has entered this realm! And what is your name!?"

"My name…?" The being tried to say something. But then he realized that he couldn't remember his real name. "I-I can't remember! Why?"

"Nobody remembers their name when they arrive here," A being in a yellow clown outfit said. "I'm Kaufmo, by the way. Perhaps I can help you pick out a name?"

"Uh, sure?" The being asked. "What name do you have in mind, Kaufmo?"

"How about…Mooz?" Kaufmo suggested.

"Mooz?" The jackrabbit scoffed. "Is that all you could come up with, Kaufy?"

"Shut it, Jax!" The mix-and-match toy said, glaring at Jax before turning to Mooz. "But welcome to your new home, Mooz… Zooble, by the way… Over there is Gangle…" She nodded to the ribbonoid creature. "…Kinger…" Next to her was the white king chess piece. "…And Ragatha." She nodded at the ragdoll. "Crystal must have left to go guard." She noticed that the aformentioned wax figurine had left.

"I see you met Kaufmo," Ragatha said. "Maybe he can introduce you to the others." A smile was on her face.

"My comedy mask is broken," Gangle sobbed.

"GAH!" Kinger yelped at the sight of Gangle before calming himself down. "Oh, Gangle! You startled me!"

(Later)

Time went by for Mooz. He had gotten used to how things worked around in the Digital World. Plus, he and Kaufmo became the bestest of friends.

The two did everything together. Whether it would be something as simple as cracking jokes or doing one of Caine's in-house adventures, they always had fun.

Life in the Digital World was fun for them. Until one evening, Mooz decided to ask his friend something.

"Kaufmo, as crazy as this may sound, do you believe that there's an exit?" Mooz asked.

Kaufmo went silent for a bit. He thought about it rather deeply. "Huh, up until now, I never gave it much thought," Kaufmo admitted. "I would ask Caine, but you know how he is. However, if it makes you feel better, I can try to find out if there really is one."

"You mean this wholeheartedly?" Mooz asked.

"You bet!" Kaufmo flashed a smile. "That's what friends are for!"

(Present)

Mooz now stood in front of the door to Kaufmo's now vacant room. The only difference was that his friend's face now had a red x over it. He only visited this place whenever nobody else was around.

"Hey, Kaufmo," Mooz softly said to himself. "Though, I know you're no longer here, I just wanted to tell you about this new member. Her name is Pomni. She's a bit shaken up, but if you had met her, you would have helped her get used to things around here."

He gave a sad sigh, slight regret appearing on his face. Why did he have ask Kaufmo about an exit? After asking, his clown friend became determined to find one. And at the cost of his sanity.

The day that Pomni arrived was also the day that Kaufmo abstracted. And to think that Ragatha was looking forward to introducing him to Pomni…

Maybe if he hadn't said anything about an exit, Kaufmo would still be here. The majority of his friends have since been abstracted for the same reason and are now in the cellar.

"I'll miss you always, Kaufmo." Mooz turned around to face away from the door. "There may be a day where we will be reunited. Along with our other friends. If possible, I look forward to it. I'll keep smiling and making others for you, my best friend."

Without another word, Mooz walked down the hallway, leaving Kaufmo's door behind.

have you watched game of thrones and/or house of the dragon?? if so, who are your favs?

me, with Daenerys plastered all over my blog: no, I have not seen the show and I don't have any favourites

lmao

I have seen the original GoT but I haven't seen House of The Dragon yet. I really want to watch it, but again - I need to be the right headspace to watch something new and I HAVE NOT been in the right headspace lately. But I have seen so many gifs of Alicent all over my dash and I KNOOOW I just know that when I watch the show, she is gonna hit all my fav character points (sad backstory, big sad wet eyes, repressed queerness, many parent issues, etc.) so expect 20 Alicent fics to flood your space as soon as I do watch HOTD

It's so funny, because I watched GoT TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE FINALE AIRED. My sister and her then gf were so into GoT and they watched all of S7 and S8 as it was airing in our living room and FOR WEEKS they tried to convince me to watch it, and I did not give a single fuck. And they watched the Battle of Winterfell on full fucking blast while I was trying to sleep, and I was like "can you not" and they were like "well this is important and blah blah" and I was like "well if you're gonna watch the show well I'm trying to sleep this damn loud then I guess I'll just fucking watch it too" and they were like "no, you have to start from the beginning because there's lore"

SO THEY ANNOYED ME INTO WATCHING IT

so I watched 7 whole seasons (and like 6 eps of Season 8) like a week before the finale aired. and as you may know from the reputation and content of Season 8, I was sorely disappointed and MAD very quickly

the show as a whole is a really great show and I am so mad that they fumbled the ending SO BADLY. but I do really love rewatching the show and then not watching S8 <3

and as far as my favourite characters:

(and I need to write fanfiction about all these characters. and I do have a bunch of unfinished GoT fanfiction in my drafts lmao)

DAENERYS TARGARYEN !!!!!!!!! my queen, the true queen, the only and only queen. in my head, she ended S8 on the Iron Throne and peace was restored and everyone was happy and that's it

Sandor Clegane - strangely one of my favs. I really want to write fics about him. he is one of those perfect "mean and cold, but turns out to be somewhat 'good'" characters that is SO MUCH FUN and I love his backstory and the way he is with Sansa and Arya (also, "someone is gonna die for some fucking chickens" lives in my head rent free forever)

Jojen Reed - I have more bias toward him because he's played by TBS. but we love a disabled/chronically ill king. and he inspired my all time favourite quote in the whole series "just because some people will always need help, doesn't mean they aren't worth helping"

Sansa Stark - again, queen. I love the arc she went through and her ending on the show is one of the only good ones. she is one of the only satisfying characters in S8, but I love her the whole way through because even though she starts out as a terrible ignorant brat, it makes her transformation so much more satisfying

Arya Stark - every time she's on screen, I cheer. I love her so much

Tyrion Lannister - king. he is clever and unironically sexy. last year when I was rewatching GoT, one of my favourite 'falling asleep to this' fanfic fantasy ideas was an in depth storyline with Tyrion as the love interest. I want to write fanfiction for him so badly. the moment when he gave Bran the disabled riding saddle was the moment I fell in love with him and it was just hits from there

PODRICK !!!!! - canonically gets bitches and supposedly the only person who knew how to make a girl cum (canon)??? HE'S ICONIC AND I LOVE HIM

Jon Snow - he knows nothing, but he is sexy. I definitely need to write a fic about him. sterling morals, heroism, and canon pussy eater. what's not to love

Ygritte - she is That Bitch. I love her. I need her biblically

TORMUND !!!!!!!!! - "before you stick ya prick inside her, you gotta get her slick as a baby seal" - and that was when I knew I needed him Sexually. I have a Tourmund fic in my drafts lmao

Birenne - she called Jamie a spoiled brat to his face and then fought a bear with her cleavage out. I need to fuck her

Missandei - she is pretty and adorable and she could tell me to fuck off in 17 different languages. I love her so much

Greyworm - I love him so much I cannot even put it into words omg

Gendry - sweaty tits. that is all

[alolanrain]

I just need more Raihan x Ash please I need it anything will do a fanfic a bunch of headcanons anything please I will get on my hands and knees

Please pretty please

Lmao get up off the floor, it’s dirty. I’ll give you some Hc’s and then some Au ones that hop off of that particular one.

\ : Hc

- : addition, just wanted to give a pragraph break.

\- !au: piggybacking off into an au.

(Reminder that the Ash and Raihan I write are respectively usually around 20-22 and 24-24 following the rule if the anime had actually let Ash age through the regions)

\ Scottish accent Raihan is a thing now and it’s not changing. In the morning his voice is almost like fucking velvet and Ash didn’t know how much of a weak, weak mfer he is to a sooth voice until he woke up the morning following their first night falling into bed together. He’s never heard anything like this from Raihan before, despite having such a varied time zones in the last couple of years, and it’s unfair how weak he had gotten.

\ Raihan is a very tall man with still very short doorways half the time. He’s blessed with the halls of Hammerlocke stadium and he thanks the building and its spirits but the other stadiums are not so kind. Their mean and short height, despite Galar being known for having taller people, the stadiums weren’t meant for giants like him.

(Idk much about Catholics and I willfully ignored the Bible teaching my grandma tried to give me as a child so please bare with my description but this is also how I see them.)

\ Raihan is also… very religious in a sense. Nothing like Ash’s more fucked religiousness, nowhere near, but more ridged-almost se angrily criticized. His father was a devout follower of Arceus despite never going to church, the one of the many religions spread across this wide wide world, but his mother was a follower of Zacian and Zazamenta. More free and encourage to run and roam. Though they were stuck in Wyndon, Raihan’s and his Mothers hometown long forgotten for the sake of Rose’s work, and it’s rigid streets. He knew not to say anything

- he plays the part of a devout follow of Arceus during his younger years to please his father, he wasn’t so kind to Mother when she showed who she truly respected in his house and may have threatened Raihan with sugar coated words to make the “right choice”. It’s not until he takes over the gym at a ripe age of late 16 early 17 and gains the respect of his new older employees. They protect him from Rose when Raihan starts to visit the Saints Of Swords and Shields in Hammerlocke. The same church his mother and grandparents went to before.

\ Ash’s religiousness was very fluid but more in a furious turbulent type of way. He grew up in a very devout Arceus town but it replicates Unova a lot more than it should. There’s very little actual Kanto practices until you get out of the town.

- the reason for this was when Oak’s lab was busing with researchers a lot were Unova scientists and fellow Kanto ones. The Unovian people stuck around once Oak’s started to slow down to have his family, turning to farm work around the lab that used to be far into the woods. Bringing more of their family’s over and… really diving into the deep end of holy shit-though Oak has some kind of permanent blind to really notice.

- the moment Ash stepped out of Pallet Town it was like a whole new world-one Delia tried to desperately teach Ash but was shamed upon by fellow Town citizens. Ash doesn’t realize it later until Brock and Misty finally start to question Ash’s actual nationalities because a Kantonian would know these sort of simple things like communal bathing, transportation, and literally anything more technology based besides what was in Oaks lab. It takes a trip back home for them to realize that oh, it’s like that.

- it changes even more the more Ash travels and it developed into the mess of its own thing. It would be a lot better if it weren’t for the damage he has seen across the globe. The hits he’s taken mentally and physically are terribly strong and plenty, it warped a good bit of his rationality and self-worth but in a spiteful i know I’m going to hell for my atonement, but I’m taking Arceus with me regardless type of way.

\-Ta!AuAsh is even worse. It doesn’t help that he can communicate and had put himself on a thin line between god-hood and humanity that has truly recked his sanity.

- has absolutely used the phrase “Pray to your legendary/god, even favor me.” Or something of out of pocket but somehow horrifying note. Since it’s usually followed by a cruel massacre to get the mission done or against villains like Viren and Faba.

\ even though the majority of Ash’s wounds have healed, it’s still like the scars are there and actually on his skin, the pain and tightness is still very much there So massage oils become Ash’s thing. His little self-care act that he doesn’t feel one inch of remorse or guilt for. Had willing friends rub the oils into his shoulder or upper back when he’s particularly achy and tense.

\ Raihans thing is his hair. He’s very particular about his braids and since he’s mainly a weather specialist he has a specific routines for which weather effects actually appear the most during the battle.

\ Ash happily shares his oils with Raihan, who’s a very tall man and doorways are not friends, but Raihan doesn’t share his hair routine. Ash is more then welcome to stay around and watch, maybe try and lay on his back while he’s braiding, but Ash can not fuck with him during this. It’s important to Raihan to look his best and he’s not willing to trust anyone with that part of himself yet.

\ weighted blankets are nothing on Raihan but their everything for Ash and he’s in heaven during winter in Galar. Heavy boyfriend heater plus heavy blanket means sash can sleep in his normal clothes, a tshirt-mostly cropped- and boxers, despite outside of the blanket being cold that frozen icicles forming in wet hair.

\ Ash genuinely likes podcasts over anything for media. Like apps, movies, tv shows can all go bye bye but podcasts can stay. He’s hooked on a few baking ones and criminal story telling.

\ out of all things; fruit, cheese and meat are consumed the most in the house. Bake good excluding as their mostly very unhealthy but so good. It’s mostly Ash as it can be easy snacking when he’s out an about in the back either working on his garden or lightly training his Pokémon.

\ all of Ash’s hoodies are exclusively ‘Raihans’. In reality Raihan just buys pairs of the same hoodie so he can give one to Ash after wearing it for a while, while still having one for himself. He just hides them before Ash gets home.

- Ash is shit at reminding Raihan when he’s taking off and coming back home so who ever he’s with-if they have his phone number-would text him. So mostly Kukui, Burnet, Lance and Drake.

For the first time since 2020, I am feeling the urge to read InuKag fics again???

This all started in June when I FINALLY read the iconic "Freak Attraction" by our esteemed @artistefish (which is PHENOMENAL AND AMAZING BTW PLEASE GO READ IT), but then, just now, I saw that the Smut Queen herself, @keichanz had posted new smut...... 👀👀👀

Aaaaaand suddenly I went hunting for other smutty oneshots to add to my "Marked for Later" fics. For the first time in AGES. Like. Um. Holy shit????

[Ramblings about my "Inuyasha history post-2020" below cut. Tl;dr: I'm lowkey Shook that my love for Inuyasha and InuKag fics is finally, slowly coming back 🥹💕]

Here's the rundown: 2020 happened. I went into quarantine with my parents. I was determined to finally devour a BUNCH of Inuyasha fics I kept meaning to read, and at first I did with great gusto..... but..... as April 2020 crept along, my interest began to wane and depression seized a hold of me.

Then Yashahime was announced. The fandom imploded. I felt nothing. No interest, no worries, no intrigue. NOTHING. It would've scared me if I was capable of feeling it.

Oh eventually, I felt a mild amusement at all of the squabbling and ship wars and all that nonsense (and spawned a whole fucking series of memes as a result lmaooooo). But my love for the fandom/fics had more or less snuffed out. Which sucked for a number of reasons, not least of which were "shit, most of my WIPs are for this fandom fuckfuckfuckfuck" LMAO 🙃

Depressing shit aside, I dove back HARD into the Disney fanfic side of things, on top of other anime titles and old fandoms like Harry Potter. I moved on to other fandoms, partially due to feeling embittered at the Inuyasha fandom for already making my depression over my lack of interest EVEN WORSE with all the in-fighting over Yashahime (which btw, for the record, is NOT a particularly bad show. It's not a GOOD show, per se, I don't have any strong feelings for it either way, but it's NOT the Antichrist™ like fans were making it out to be, sheesh >.> It's just another mediocre sequel for a classic-but-not-particularly-amazing-original-series. Shocking, I know. Moving on)

The only thing keeping me sane about Inuyasha was watching it with my fiancé, from Nov. 2020-Sept. 2021. His delightful commentary breathed life into the series like you wouldn't BELIEVE lmao 🤣

Eventually.... I felt the desire to write again. But it was HARD. 😭

After Shameless was completed in April of 2020, I felt.... empty of Inuyasha fic writing. By a miracle, I managed to update my Big Three WIPs (An Unexpected Encounter -> June 2020; Inuyasha: Prince of Thieves -> July 2020 & Sept. 2022; and Shards of the Sea -> June 2021 & Sept. 2022), but the gaps between updates kept widening, and I only worked on them because they were already partially written/published. I even ended up archiving older ficlets into Tied Together and Bonds Across Time, but had to resist the urge to delete everything and start afresh SEVERAL times since 2021 (which, coincidentally, was around the time the fandom was tearing itself apart over Yashahime bullshit and by bullshit I mean innocuous junk people were losing their goddamn minds over ugh.... 😒)

The handful of other fics I punched out for other fandoms were small, and only posted briefly in the summers of 2020 and 2022.

The latter summer was thanks to my first InuKag written smut in 2 years: Sinful Symphonies.

So, yay! Finally getting a feel for writing again, both for Inuyasha and in general! But I still felt utterly detached from other Inuyasha fics, not because of the writers (are you KIDDING me, half of the reason it was hard to distance myself from the fandom was because of the AMAZING TALENT in this fandom ugggghhh 😭), but because of my personal, complicated feelings with the fandom and series as a whole.

But then I binge-watched the series by myself this May. And finally, decided to buckle down and read Freak Attraction, which I have been meaning to read LONG before 2020, and thus, it became my first Inuyasha bookmarked fic on AO3 in almost 3 years, and first "new" Inuyasha fave as whole since August 2021.

My last Inuyasha bookmarked fic on AO3 was on Nov. 1, 2020 (on ff.net, I read two small MirSan smut fics in August 2021, but these are outliers; I really could not bring myself to read more than those -.-).

My last InuKag bookmarked smut on AO3 was April 7, 2020.

My last REVIEWS I left for an Inuyasha fic (besides the aforementioned fics) were from June-August 2021 for a couple of updated faves (namely Keichanz's Iconic You Rescued Me, which was a ROLLERCOASTER OF FEELS, LEMME TELL YOU).

And now. NOW. AT LAST. THREE WHOLE YEARS after 2020 sucked the joy of Inuyasha fandom/fic from me.... I want to try again. I want to read more again.

Even if it's only a little bit, I would like to find joy here again. 🥺💕

[ssaalexblake]

hilariously, lower decks has given me a Whole new outlook on Voyager as a TV show. I don't think I truly connected with how crap it'd be for the people who Aren't bigshots already until I was given a bunch of these characters as leads on another show.

While Mariner, because of her whole ~thing~ may have had a smooth (yet still unfulfilling and unchallenged) life in that situation due to her own traumas (timelines are being ignored here), Characters who yearn for upward mobility and the chance to be more, Do more, llike Boimler and Tendi, who would be stuck with the prospect of cleaning out the holodeck filters their whole lives... Ouch. That would be verging on the soul destroying.

I think my new star trek pipe dream is an in depth look into the lower decks crew of Voyager. It wasn't easy for the command staff, but having Some power would have been better than none. Having slightly more interesting jobs would be better than true menial labour your whole life.

I also know we got that one episode, but it didn't Really go into what I mean here even if it Is one of my favourites in the show.

And my last star trek pipe dream, for Years, was that somebody would make a movie or show (frankly, i'd have settled for a good fanfic ngl) where Picard and Seven would meet and talk about being borg, and That actually happened, so i'm not writing this one off yet.

(i wrote holodick filters instead of holodeck filters the first time and that is surprisingly accurate in this context yikes)

[kuschelkissen]

Ok. Ok, so... I need to "gush" a bit. This will be a long post, so I'll put it under a cut.

Background: I'm from Germany. In the early 2000s, we had this big anime-themed fanpage called Animexx. I mean, we still have that page, it's just gotten really quiet over there with the rise of Social Media.

Anyway.

That page had/has everything. You could submit fanart, fanfic, doujinshi/fancomics, cosplay photography, you could roleplay, write weblogs, there was a forum, etc, etc. It still feels a bit of a dream, but I loved this page because you could find EVERYTHING there.

That cool cosplayer you saw on the convention? If you went on Animexx, you'd probably find them and could tag them in the photo you took of them (this is still the thing I missed the most when I was more active in cosplay...).

I sometimes look back at my old fanart and fanfic over there and read the nice comments I got.

I think their downfall was mostly the many, many rules regarding fanart quality, cosplay quality, and last but not least, the whims of unfair mods ... but that's a topic for a different post.

SO ANYWAY.

They had - still have - a section for fanarts called "Aikos Lieblinge" - Aiko's favourites (Aiko being one of the mascots of that page). I think they rotate each week? I'm not 100% sure, but it's always 6 pictures that get chosen? Tbh I don't really know how it works, I know you can suggest a fanart for it, and I assume the 6 pictures with the most suggestions get chosen.

Back then, it was a big deal. If you were among Aiko's favourites, you'd get pages after pages of comments. 60-100 comments on your picture were pretty common, really good pictures got even more.

I always looked at that longingly, I usually got maybe 2-6 comments, and the most I got were my very old One Piece fanarts where I actually managed to get around 20, and even 40 comments on one.

SO. ANYWAY.

It finally happened. I've been on this page for 20 years (joined in May 2004 and have never really left, though been inactive every now and then through the years), and today I opened the fanart front page to see...

My Heizuha picture on there! 🥺 I made it! I made it into Aiko's favourites!!

I try not to listen to the tiny voice in my head that keeps grumbling "well, NOW it doesn't matter anymore, it's not like there's still a whole lot of people active over there!", because even though that may be true... this stupid moment just has lifted my mood SO MUCH??

I KNOW it is useless. I'm not gonna get an influx of new followers over there, and a whole bunch of people commenting on my picture(s). But just knowing what it used to be... knowing that there were at least SOME people thinking my stupid little drawing was good enough to be suggested for this...

It makes me incredibly happy ='//)

[icos-x]

Hello. I'm J. You may know me as @icos-3 here on tumblr or as ijacques on AO3. Or (more likely) you don't know me at all, in which case, hi.

This is my reading blog where i reblog fandom stuff I find interesting. I'm not very creative with my reblogs, and often just want to boost something I like so that more people can hopefully see it. Please don't think my needless screaming is because it's bad. It actually means the opposite

My current fandom obsessions, ranked by obsessiveness, are:

Avatar: The Last Airbender (Zukka)

Rise of the Guardians (FrostBunny)

Danny Phantom (Gen)

The Owl House (Gen, Huntlow, Lumity)

Luca (Luberto)

Super Mario Bros (Gen, Bowuigi)

Here are some fanfic/media recommendations:

Fanfics

⭐Sei Meglio di Venti Vespa - Luca (Alberto x Luco, POV: Alberto, Pining, Neurodivergent Alberto, Friends to Lovers, So much pining, Wholesome, Alberto overreacts a bunch) - Good to read, Alberto goes on a whole journey of self acceptance, lots of Italian

⭐I Just Wanna Be Somebody To Someone - Rise of the Guardians (Jack x Aster, Smut, Fluff, Fluff and Smut, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, bonding over loss) - great to read, one of my new favourites! Rated E for Extremely wholesome. And Explicit. This is the first smut fic I've read, okay?

Winter's Frost - Rise of the Guardians (Jack x Aster, mature subjects, Major Character Death, nonconsensual, mind control, true love's kiss, consensual, Fluff and Angst, mostly canon compliant, world building, book elements) - good read, the romance is good, but the end is a painful experience. If you want a happy end, don't read past chapter 17

Senses and a distinct lack of Sensibility - Rise of the Guardians (E. Aster Bunnymund centric, Jack x Aster, Mutual Pining, Aster is a dork, Slow Burn, Fluff and Angst, idiots in love) - great read, would describe as "the perfect fic doesn't exis- wait"

The Boy in the Tower - Rise of the Guardians (Jack Frost & E. Aster Bunnymund centric, Jack x Aster, Rapunzel AU, Jack is rapunzel in this case, Slow Burn, Romance, Child Abuse, Kidnapping, Happy Ending) - really good read, the romance isn't overbearing and feels natural and wholesome, but I wish there were more romantic scenes

The Last Grimwalker - The Owl House (Hunter centric, Grimwalker lore building, ex coven leaders as a plot device, mind control, post season 3, Hunter learns to let others help, Side crew centric, drug usage, potions as drugs, Hunter needs a hug, Cannon Compliant, as far as I could tell at least, except for one part, but that's spoiler territory) - good read, feels like watching an episode of the show at times, but the word "alas" is used a bit too frequently for my tastes

Face to Face - Danny Phantom (Double Danny, shattered soul, self acceptance, Identity Reveal, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff, feels like watching an episode or 20, Ghost catcher as a plot device, world building) - good read, very wholesome

Intricacies of Us - The Owl House (Hunter & Darius, Darius is his father figure, adoption, trauma, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff, Angst) - good read

Echoes - Danny Phantom (Eldritch Danny, No One Knows, Hurt/Comfort, Angst, Hazmat Suit) - good read

⭐A Snapping Sound - Danny Phantom (Mega Angst, Mystery, Horror, Murder Mystery, Major Character Death (and I mean MAJOR), old movie vibes, ghosts in a more traditional sense, great world building, unhappy-happy ending) - great to read, but man have I not yet recovered from this ending

Shift - Danny Phantom (Everyone Knows, first time meeting, Hurt/Comfort, some Angst, lots of swearing, some body horror, Guys in White as a plot device, Sam and her parents don't get along at all, satisfying cliffhanger ending) - a decent read, good ideas and plot

⭐Cooking Mama (Luigi) - Super Mario Bros (Kidnapping as a plot device, Luigi is a parental figure, lots of cooking, Fluff, Found Family, Slow Burn, Bowuigi, Bowser/Luigi, cozy vibes, lots of cooking) - great read, very wholesome, though the movie kinda makes Bowser feel a bit weird for me

Infiltration of the Heart - Super Mario Bros (Kidnapping as a plot device, protective older brother Mario, peach is a little unlikeable imo, lots of fantasy politics, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Autistic Luigi, Ace Luigi, Bowser/Luigi, Luigi is a parental figure, Drama, Alcohol, Luigi gets character development, world building) - good read, romance feels a little forced, but it works imo

Mortified verse - Danny Phantom (Danny is a broken boy, Danny & Clockwork, Clockwork is a parental figure, MASSIVE world building, mega cannon divergence, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Ghost King Danny, space as a setting, Court Drama, Legal Setting, The Fentons get sued by ghosts, child abuse, Greek Myth, Body Horror, clones get more character) - really good read

⭐Something's Wrong With Danny Fenton - Danny Phantom (No One Knows, body horror, bullying, Penelope Spectra as a plot device, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, self hatred, Identity Reveal) - great read

Countdown to Countdown by velinxi (comic, webtoon, superpowers, powers are categorised by flowers, Gay vibes, incomplete) - good read, very angsty, naive protagonist trusts easily and gets hurt a lot
