The Rookie timeline drives me bonkers.
Nolan and Bailey decided to try for a baby literally seconds after the Chenford break-up. But in this episode (6x7 which is only 1 day long), Nolan consoles Bailey that it’s only been TWO WEEKS.
But when Grey talks to Tim about his first day back on patrol, he says he’s been reprimanded for reckless behavior and broken up with his girlfriend WITHIN THE LAST WEEK.
This somewhat confirms my suspicion that the writers for Nolan and Bailey don’t talk to the writers for Chenford.
The Bailan team is dishing out love and happiness. The Chenford team is trying the dig the hole deeper each with each episode and enjoys watching their main characters struggle.
The Bailan team LOVES cheesy lines, awkward scenes, and sexy references that are anything but sexy. The Chenford team seems to be preferring soul-crushing breakups, a strong theme of dishonesty, and a focus on mental health.
It’s like watching two different shows that cross over each other occasionally.
#chenford#the rookie#lucy chen#tim bradford#tim bradford x lucy chen#bailan#the rookie 6x7#the rookie spoilers#the writers can’t use a clock or a calendar#two different writing teams#I swear

they girlbossed Sally Jackson
#pjo#pjo tv#riordanverse#sally jackson#this shall be my non-spoiler only review of the show so far#just watched the first two episodes - they were good!#i might make a post about Percy's char so far cause i am very pleasantly surprised so far with the adhd experience vibes#my compliments to the writing team for the good good disabled character rep in this script#very pleased with almost all the characters and plot so far#my only one i'm iffy on is Sally as mentioned ^ they girlbossed her#like. book sally is most defined by her kindness and perseverance. this sally is just kind of. tough. she's tough. girlboss.#which is not necessarily a bad thing? she's still a fine character she's just different#also only semi-spoiler in my review: Chris is there! Love that Chris is there#he's just there! but i am a rogue demigod enjoyer#so his presence alone is appreciated

do you know why vale seems to have a soft spot for pedrosa?
there's not any single one reason, I don't think, but here's are a few contributing factors that come to mind:
history! in large part because of the honda link, dani's the alien he's known the longest... valentino was the number one honda rider at a time at which dani was honda's rising star. photo on the right is from the 2001 honda celebrations at the last race of the season (when dani was sixteen); from oxley's valentino rossi: all his races: "that night vale celebrated in style at a raucous honda victory party, where he taught honda youngsters daijiro kato and dani pedrosa how to drink". they've known each other forever! valentino was getting teenage dani drunk! quite natural to be fond of someone you've seen grow up like that, even if they are being moulded to be your next big rival
circumstance! the way it basically works with valentino is that if you want to have a feud with him, you generally need to have a title fight with him when you’re already ‘established’ rivals (ignore marc, that’s its own thing, 2015 is a freaky season). biaggi and valentino were enemies headed into 2001 and then were worse enemies, he was cool with sete in year one but not year two, mostly *wiggles hand* the same with casey and jorge… feuds aren't build overnight. valentino and dani weren’t ever really direct title rivals - closest they got was 2006 and 2008, but in both cases valentino probably didn’t see dani as his main problem that year. there wasn't really any competitive necessity for valentino to get nasty... also with one or two notable exceptions, valentino did kinda have dani handled in their actual wheel-to-wheel fights, which let’s face it probably didn’t hurt
yapping! so this is just a theory but it’s one I believe strongly in. you know how valentino loves to talk, right? the thing about pressers and podiums is that you're always going to have a few regular attendees, if you will, corresponding to the front runners in any given year. now, unfortunately for valentino, there were periods of time where almost every other regular attendee was someone he had pretty active beef with. that doesn’t mean he always avoided yapping at them, but relatively speaking you want a guy you can build up some good repartee with to pass the time. dani was his guy… less complicated than casey and jorge, plus dani is polite enough to go along with it and maybe even enjoy chatting to valentino (it’s been known to happen). pressers can be boring and at podiums you're still full of adrenaline, valentino wants to share a joke with someone! my completely unscientific sense is that valentino does this a lot with dani around 2008-ish to 2012, then for two years marc is the number one yap victim, then for a while it’s a bit…? oddly valentino does seem to chat quite a lot with jorge in 2015... he likes to throw in a quirky behavioural pattern sometimes to keep you guessing. anyway then in 2016 he is Actively Ignoring two of these men so vale goes!! hi there dani!! and takes it from there (though the field is more mixed up post-2015 so he becomes more of an opportunistic yapper). in general, valentino will chat to pretty much anyone with A Few Exceptions, but he does usually have a bit of an order of preference
dani’s personality! now, obviously dani is very much capable of feuds, but he’s not that naturally combative a character. valentino generally needs a competitive justification for beef, though some personal animosity can help too… but he never really hated any of that trio of young riders to come through. valentino's known dani forever, he’s been around dani a fair bit because of their respective statuses in the sport, dani isn’t going out of his way to pick fights with valentino, so no reason not to get on! he does clearly quite like chatting to dani and seems pretty fond of him even towards the start of the alien era, at a time in which it was broadly expected that dani not casey would emerge as vale's primary challenger... god knows if the relationship would have soured if dani had assumed that mantle (probably at least a little lol) but failing that, valentino does just seem to quite like him. y’know, sometimes it’s like that
They Have Also Had Their Disagreements, But There Hasn’t Been Much Cause For It To Escalate Further. these disagreements have tended to be over racing standards, where dani is generally in the ‘you people are all insane’ camp and valentino is generally in the ‘ah it’s fine’ camp (though, obviously, there is nuance here… cf vale also criticising sic over the le mans 2011 incident that left dani with the broken collarbone). generally, they don't get into direct conflict over it, more of an underlying difference in positions (hey, aragon 2013 is an example)... but there’s been dani’s suggestion that valentino’s sepang 2015 stance is inconsistent with his generally laissez faire approach, and also some other isolated little scuffles over the years like say 2017 aragon (see below). pretty small scale stuff in the grand scheme of things and if you've been on-track rivals for that long it's kinda inevitable you'll eventually disagree about some stuff, but perhaps worth bringing up
went through all of the alien combos in my head and these two slot in just behind dani/casey as probably the two most consistently beef-free inter-alien relationships? dani/casey gets extra credit for surviving The Teammate Test. but, y'know, the thing about valentino is that he's a sociable, outgoing guy... he likes talking to people... he's actually interested in them... he's a decent conversationalist, easy to get on with, all that stuff. so if you expose valentino to this nice fella who at most was like... perhaps a bit more reserved towards the start of his time in the premier class (partly due to his mentor's approach), but really was generally pretty chill... well, if valentino isn't given any reason to hate dani, then default state is that he won't. good on them etc
#valentino took the team dani or team jorge thing too seriously and had already decided he hated jorge based on vibes#so he was like oh i guess i’ll be a dani fan. he just pretended not to notice the reconciliation... in his head they're both still beefing#valentino paid dani off for estoril 2006 and he’s been nice to him ever since to keep him quiet#not because he's worried everyone will know he tried to rig the title but because he's embarrassed it didn't work#valentino had a long con planned to use dani to psychologically torment jorge but their reconciliation scuppered his schemes#valentino felt so guilty about not offering dani the chair he brought to the sepang 2006 podium#DESPITE dani’s knee being fucked that he’s been trying to repent ever since#valentino got really excited at jerez 2008 to stand on a podium where the other two were the ones involved in an active feud....#a feud rekindled by dani's refusal to shake jorge's hand at qatar. so vale's always been grateful to dani for this special experience#valentino has such poor posture that the natural incline of his back makes it easy for him to talk right into dani's ears#valentino said in his autobiography he finds short people funny when they're angry. dani’s short and was weird around jorge#valentino had a feud arc planned with dani for 2010 (he wanted a different one every year) but broke his leg and never got round to it#brr brr#//#batsplat responds#alien tag#in all seriousness if there is a silver bullet reason they get on that i've never come across please feel free to write in#need to just make sure everyone has noticed sete in the background of that 2006 photo. has everyone seen him

I procrastinated putting my idea onto paper so long I had to change it from SpringFest to Summer Nights BUT. Squits :]
#splatoon#my art#my OCs#the squits#all text is translatable!#top text reads 'Summer Nights Splatfest'#middle right reads '2024'#bottom right reads 'Go team Shiver! <3'#bottom left reads 'June and Basil <3'#i also tried and somewhat failed to imply June wrote her name but Basil wrote everything else#the actual hell the writing put me through. WHY DO NO SCRIPTS HAVE NUMBERS AND LETTERS. WHY IS THERE NO SYMBOLS#i had to use two different scripts for the writing vs the numbers and then stole the ! from the alternan script

Imagine falling in love with the person you hate (and thought hated you back) after they die
Having all of your misconceptions and biases about that person torn down after they’re already gone
It starts small— you learn something about them that goes against what you think of them and don’t say anything because it’s rude to disrespect the dead but that little knowledge keeps popping up again and again and again
You investigate, just a little, just to prove yourself right and can scoff at everyone else for being wrong
You learn you were wrong
You don’t know how to feel about it
You try to justify it to yourself. You remember all the other reasons as to why you hated them. You only made one mistaken judgment about them.
You try to avoid anything that has to do with them— you didn’t even like them so what does it matter?
But their death is everywhere
Friends and family post about the fun times they had with them
Speak of all the good things about them
Openly mourn losing someone they loved
More people speak up
People that weren’t close but knew them
It’s like all anyone has to say about them is good things but all you would have to say is bad things
Why do they get to know the good things but all you ever got was the bad?
You didn’t think it was possible to hate someone more
What did you do wrong?
You don’t mean to, but somehow you find yourself conversing with one of their closest friends
It slips out, in a moment of bitterness— a sarcastic remark about their so-called good nature that was better saved behind your tongue
The slap was deserved, you’ll admit
The words…
“They admired you so much.”
You’d have preferred to be slapped a second time rather than be lied to straight to your face
You hated them and They hated you
That’s how it’s always been and how it always would have been if they were still alive
Nothing was ever gonna change that
Nothing should have
But the words haunt you
For your own peace of mind you need to prove yourself right
You start digging into they’re interactions with others— you learn things about them like this
Find videos of their laugh, photos of their smile
Things you never got to witness yourself because they were so cold to you and you were cold to them in return
You discover what kind of jokes they liked, what hobbies would have them grinning and activities that had them ranting, what sort of food they’d eat or avoid
You discover a whole different person than the one you knew
…thought you knew?
You finally find it, evidence of they’re dislike and hate for you
Or you thought you did
The video is old, hidden in all the other posts of their parents social media, but the date is the same as when you two first met
You rewatch it for hours
But the words and actions never change
“They were so cool!” They’re smiling, hands waving about as they continue to rant about you. They start to blush as they bemoan the terrible first of impression they made.
They’re very dramatic. It’s cute.
You were wrong — about everything
And how did it all start?
Over a misunderstanding, yeah
But you have to be honest — even if it’s just with yourself
It was also your own insecurities twisting your perception of the situation
And now you’re left with the realization that they died knowing you hated them—
When you’re just now discovering what kind of person they really were too late
—And you can never make up for it
#wisteriavines#writing#writing prompt#ship dynamics#I guess#honestly does this make sense?#falling in love with a dead person#all of this came to me in a dream btw#they two are in the same sport but different team sorta thing#MC (you) is becoming well known#and They are just starting out#what sport specifically? well in my dream it was figure skating#but I think this could work with any other sport#there was a lot more angst in my dream considering how They died#but that’s not the focus of this post and honestly would be a whole plot of its own#I don’t want to get in to

Because I need to work on my WIPs and not add another I'm putting this out into the stratosphere, please as always (and literally any concept you see me throw around even if i wrote a fic about it i want more stories) feel free to steal it, draw it, write it, or use it to distract yourself from the pain radiating from the massive cut in your foot that has decided to just bleed all night (oddly specific bunny is not okay) anywhosers
-royalty au
-red is like the sole prince of a small nation, Pallet, his mom is the queen, despite the nation being small , they are increadibly strong thanks to pokemon trainer prince who beats everyone
-rocket nation with king gio had been attacking and waging a full out war but Red's pushed them back, now rocket nation is trying to form alliances, so Red's mom has to the do same thing
-a neighboring nation, Oakland (ha) had always fought with Red's nation over resources or something, but rocket is attacking them so they form an alliance
-and to form an alliance King Samuel sends his grandson Green to be married off
-cause daisy's the oldest so she'll be queen, and honestly the king thinks green is shit at everything so getting rid of him is a weight off his shoulders
-and green is pissed cause he's a strong trainer and had been doing a lot to protect his nation but his grandfather doesn't care
-red and green immediately hate each other but like they're married so they have to be around each other
-and green like snuck his pokemon with him and keeps sneaking away to train and eventually red catches him training and is like hey wait you like pokemon battling
-all the while rocket is forming alliances and planning a sinister take over of pallet then Oakland
-red and green bond over training
-and like all of the nobels and military leaders treat green like he's just arm candy but now Red's like hey wait you actually know stuff and are almost as strong as me
-green starts coming to planning sessions and the elite 4 generals dont take him serious or whatever then red is like okay go battle him
-green kicks their asses and earns their respect
-they do planning and training and all the while red and green are falling for each other but neither will admit it, cause they think the other just sees this as duty or whatever
-finally the battle comes rocket vs. everyone else
-it's going well until green gets hurt, like maybe he and red are joking around on the battlefield some cause it's easy and they're kinda having fun and flirting a bit, but then someone sneaks and stabs green or whatever
-one of the elite 4 take green away to medics and red goes feral (think achilles) he beats giovanni for good
-all of the allies meet up to divvy up rocket's territories, and green is like hanging on by a thread or whatever and his grandfather is like who cares he only exists to further Oakland's control
-red is pissed threatening to wage ware against oakland
-daisy ends up finding out green is hurt and immediately comes to pallet to see him (cause she actually loves her brother) and that calms red down
-red's mom ends up somehow getting oak to step down as king and daisy becomes queen
-green gets better and red's like hey i know you don't love me and were just forced into this by your grandfather so here is this country called Viridian it's yours youre the king now
-and before green can be like wait im in love with you too, red fucks off to mt. silver (cause of course right)
-green is devastated, red is devastated
-the story is over... or is it???
-it isn't obviously, cause bunny has to have her happy ending cause real life sucks ass so fantasy has to be great in the end
-prince gold from johto makes friends with green, hears the story, and how technically green and red are 100% still married
-so he and his merry band of mischief makers (silver, lyra, kris) go on a journey to bring red down
-they make up some story about green being in trouble
-red obviously rushes down the mountain to save green, but like green's just hanging out in his castle bored as hell playing spoons with alakazam or something
-he see's red and rushes to him and they embrace and kiss
-and green's like i can't stand it i'm in love with you and red's like oh shit me too
-then they merge viridian and pallet and have a second more fun wedding where it's happy instead of an arranged thing
-and they live happily ever after
#two princes au#like that one song from the 90s#did this one make sense#eh who cares it was stuck in my head#reguri#nameless shipping#namelessshipping#idk if i want it as original or nameless#like you could have fun with the gym leaders being leaders of different countries#so like everyone evil in the manga is evil in the story#but i also like big buff stoic red as a prince#but i love pokespe red too#maybe someone write one of each#a good writer (so obviously not me lol) could get a whole big ass story out of this#originalshipping#thanks for putting up with my bullshit team!

should be asleep bc i have to be up in like 5 hours, but instead i’m awake and thinking about an idea for a best friend’s brother/college!joel au fic 👀
#like reader is a year or two younger than Joel and best friends with Tommy#and has a massive crush on Joel#reader is inexperienced and a bit shy (especially around joel) and always HEAVILY focused on her academics#and joel is popular guy probably on the college football team and is a bit of a fuckboy#he’s outgoing and the life of the party#and he knows the effect he has on women and he uses that to his advantage#anyway my idea is that Tommy drags reader along to a party and ditches her so she decides to get drunk#and joel has never really looked at her twice because she’s just Tommy’s really shy boring uptight friend#but then he sees a different side of her at the party when she gets drunk and lets loose and actually allows herself to have fun#and Joel somehow ends up having to take care of reader while she’s drunk#and though he won’t admit it to himself or anyone else he actually thinks she’s kind of adorable#and she VERY quickly gets under his skin#but he’s a bit of an immature fuckboy who doesn’t know how to do feelings#also had the idea of their whole friend group going to stay at a lake house during spring break#and Joel being driven absolutely insane having to see her walk around in her cute little bathing suits#yeah idk what this is#but maybe I’ll write it at some point#joel miller#joel miller fic#joel miller x reader#college joel#best friends brother joel#kricket rambles

Another thing I really appreciate about the Underland Chronicles is how it's both grounded but still having a bit of fun. There's SOME thought given to practicality, logistics, and realistic inspiration, but that's held in the same hand as a healthy dose of rule of cool. The people ride on bats and they have acrobatics themed fighting styles that utilize triple bladed swords. Is that practical? Does it even make physical sense? I don't care.
It's grounded in the sense that no one casts a spell, and the nature of free will is left up in the air, but there are prophecies and there are dinosaurs. It feels real but it never feels embarrassed to be fantasy (like SOME OTHER SERIES I WON'T NAME). Sometimes you get scientific justifications for things, and sometimes you don't because it's not important. How do apple trees grow underground? Moving on! No lamp-shading! L+ratio+use your imagination.
#I have a lot of respect for fantasy that's still fantastical but expresses it in novel ways#like the expanse.#those two series are really different but I feel like I enjoy them for similar reasons#they also have a lot of the same things to say about war#idk maybe James a. Corey and Suzanne Collins can team up to write something good omens style#nah that would never happen but I can dream#tuc#the underland chronicles#gregor the overlander#this is one of my less well thought out rants but what can I say I'm procrastinating?

the first chapter of lover boy is really intense on an emotional level because So Many Things happen in quick succession it's like beau barely gets a chance to breathe and process it. meanwhile RR opening chapter is just felix and dorothy arguing in a laundromat.
#i used to have a problem with the lover boy first chapter bc i was like#i know what needs to happen thematically and i know the main plot beat that needs to happen to push it forward#but i didnt have any actual like. action to move to story to that place#in a way that had a causal chain#and now im like um!!!! is too much happening#anyway my other writing problem i realised via this chapter is i worry sooo much about the idea of coincidences#like the idea of just 'letting' something happen...in lb mainly two characters being in the same place at the same time#im like there has to be an intricate explanation for all of this which like yeah thats good to think about#but i also think coincidences are an important part of plot bc first of all coincidences happen#but its also not just the coincidence its the decisions the character s made that got them to that time and place#why they made those decisions and what they do afterwards etc....#anyway! i dont know where i was going with that#RR chapter one.....ngl....its SOOO bad lol#like structurally. the prose is fine#but its been 3 years and 5 different opening scenes for that novel and NONE of them hit#but that's a problem for future me#the thing is most of my ideas now come with an opening but RR never came with an opening just the concept#because the rest of the novel slayyyyys#actually i think out of all 3 my favourite atm is the third book LOL#update literally 10 minutes after writing these tags i have an idea for a new RR opening team that i want to sink my teeth into#6th time's a charm!

I thought TSTOE was done dirty in TPOT 10 imo cause Two literally chose a robot as a contestant and realized that robots don’t dream and they didn’t even bother waking robot flower up and use a different teammate
I guess so From an in-universe stand point they probably didn't think about choosing a different contestant, since just slightly altering the win conditions was easier, or maybe they couldn't reverse it (unlikely)
Though what would theoretically been Robot Flower's dream, had she been able to dream. I think in her nightmare TSTOE would've found RF as the actual Flower, because that's what she wanted. But as soon as RF starts to interact with the rest of the dream world, they find out that still no one cares. That it doesn't matter if she's herself her pretending to be someone else, they just don't care. Because let's face it, Robot Flower wants people to care about her, and what would be scarier than to change everything about yourself just to realize it was all in vain
#not adding anything else since you didnt exactly ask for it#but hey if u ever want i can write out what i think all of tstoe's nightmares wouldve been like#the ooc reason was probably really just to make the team lose#since there has to be some sort of balance with voting out contestants from different teams#but idk im not making the show#tpot#tpot 10#the power of two#tpot robot flower

The evil slow creep of it being like "haha these will just be quick little side quests, not much effort at all!" and then noticing each one is getting progressively longer than the last, thus no longer being minimal effort.. auGh....
#The jump of 76 for the first one to 275 for the most recent ghghjb#what can I say.. I am.. The Elaborator.. The Detail Giver..#number six will HAVE to be shorter....!!!!!! !!!!#I fear it's going to look this way but opposite with some of the main character quests. The first character I ever worked on. like their#first quest I added wayy to much information and detail and side options and etc.#Once I got done with all their stuff I was like.... if they're all like this I will NEVER finish.. So then I tried to be very short about#it all. EVERY single interaction cannot have 10 branching dialogue and 5 different endings and blah blah blah.. as much as I wish it could.#Hiring a butler to stand over me all day shouting ''NARROW the scope!!!! REDUCE the options!!! CUT the dialogue!!!'' whilst I sob#and hit backspace on everything once every five minutes#But that means probably the first character I worked on will be very obvious because their quests might have a different#feel than the others and be longer.. I just CAN'T make ALL of them that long. but maybe I could choose one..#Like out of the four characters that will have full quests for them upon release.. maybe I can add another one thats long so at least#TWO of them have weirdly long quests and the one first character doesnt seem so singled out lol#I hear this happens in real life professional games as well (like people complaining that X character doesnt have as much#content in an RPG as some other one does. etc.) so.. perhaps my fears about everyting not being exactlyliterally equal#are not even that worrisome or something that's a major factor. Still lol#It's not really that concerning to me anyways from a 'how will people react to it' perspective (very niche game. hardly anyone#will play it i'd assume. its not like thousands of people shall desscend upon me to criticize even if something was weird like that.#it'd be like. out of the 25 people who ever play it. maybe one of them is like 'yeah it was kinda weird that thosequests were so much#longer than the others. but idk' and that's the extent lol). My concern is more like.. Writing time..#the more I add. the longer it takes for me to finish. So if I keep ednlessly making things forever longer and longer. then it becomes The#Forever Project. which it kind of already is. considering I started it in 2018 and then forgot about it for the most part of 5 years and am#only resuming it now LOL.. I cannot bear to add MORE forever onto that which already is quite Forever-ish#If I wrote everything the ideal way I wish it were then I would either need a full team of writers. or I would finish the game in 2085#so.. alas.. cut cut snip snip..#ANYWAY lol

so what if I per se wanted to make another long fic. What If I per se wanted it to have each chapter be inspired and borderline following events from Epic:the musical but it’s Jay’s off screen journey in DR. I’ll outline it saga by saga to demonstrate my idea.
Also no same time frames won’t apply because mentally I could not handle Jay being away from everyone for twenty years. Let alone write that myself. I’m weak and want him living a very full rest of his life.
and pretty much some characters don’t have perfect parallels so they’re very interchangeable.
this is long.
Troy saga- I’m thinking this mostly could have chapters/songs 1-4 be on a field mission Jay is sent to command by the administration. Maybe around or in imperium because they were trying to gain intelligence on the “unethical energy source”.
Also Jay keeps his yin pendant and knows that he’s either married or engaged. He has no clue who but he’s given her a name in his head. For reference sake Penelope.
the issue is my dude has no child. So there is no chance he should mention having one.
Unless he got vaguely stuck with one post memory wipe. Maybe a literal infant at first, but would roughly now be 3-5 by the events of S1. He is left in the administration.
Or we go Nya pregnancy before the merge route, but she found out a week before the merge. They made little cards to tell everyone and he kept it in his wallet that also had his ID. So he knows he has a child, but he has no idea where that is.
because Telemachus doesn't actually know who his father is and I would like to keep that so I can keep the vibe. Acidentally created a need for a child oc, shit.
warriors of the mind would be hard to translate but I could just treat it like a dream sequence. Probably Nya or smth. Maybe she is a figure he thinks he makes up in his head who only appears when he sleeps and he befriends.
he just assumes he’s crazy because realm of madness and all.
cyclops saga- could easily be that second half of that mission where they do find something willing to wipe out his people. However at the end there is this thing where Odysseus is cursed by the cyclops and Poseidon follows him every where. Now because no character is going to be consistent parallels, what if the cyclops was just Ras’s master in hiding for reasons. And also I guess the Poseidon stand in would mostly also be Ras. And one out of three Zeus appearances.
No, I like it so I’m keeping it.
and my good bye could be some dream sequence after he makes it home to his office. It’s of the Nya figure being a manifestation of his own disappointment and is like “okay I’m out”
months have now passed. Maybe a year.
storm saga- Easily could be the entire way back to the realm of madness on the mysterium mission after his appearance in season 2 pt1. People lost their portal devices that day. They make a stop at the cloud kingdom for a deal to ensure safe passage home because writers of fate and such and they give him a thingy/ Euphrasia?. Wind bag. Master of wind. Eh?
Then boom Ras. Shows up like “you hurt my master now I have to kill you.”
people die once more.
Circe saga- I feel that most of it could work out like actually story. Get on island, save men from magic, Hermes is replaced by a helpful messanger dragon of sorts, figure out a way home. Bonus points the witch try’s to prove that all men suck by trying to seduce Jay and he’s just like. “But my hypothetical probably real wife...” That he can barely remember.
point is they’re directed to the remains of the cursed realm or departed realm.
underworld saga- they go to underworld. See parts of their squad. The dead ones. (Bonus points for fitting in an elpeanor moment). Now, tree’s a whole thing with Odysseus seeing his mother. I don’t know if I want it to be that way. Granted grief killing Edna, who was already old, could punch a lot considering he doesn’t even remember her, just vaguely recognises the voice of his mother. Anyway the go see a prophet like. “You can go home this way. And yes you do have a wife/fiancé. However I see her with a very creepy dude.”
yes it’s in the same way as the play.
also the chorus just works so well.
“I see a song of past romance, I see the sacrifice of man, I see tales of betrayals and a brother’s final stand. I see beyond the brink of death, I see you draw your final breath. I see a man who gets to make it home alive. And it’s no longer you.”
Anyway guess who decides to embrace his inner monster.
-thunder saga
Once more very simple one. Go through danger the same way, shit Ras. Thunder bringer is the point where Jay switches sides.
-wisdom saga
this one I have trouble with solely for plot reasons. it mainly because of Telemachus’s role and the suitor plot line. At best I could have it do we can make it the tournament or sources.
I've decided unkown pregnancy route for the kid's origins because it's much easier than the other version. Point is Little boy loves his mother and can't wait to meet his father. Telemachus has a whole battle with antinous over saying natsy shit about his mother, later Athena helps.
Consider this, the kid, still to be named, aged around 6, maybe 7, actually picks a fight with a random child, who disrespects Nya in some way, and who has clearly been raised too violently. At this point the general "punch your way out of this one" conclusion can not be reached but instead replaced with Nya picking up her child and leaving, telling him he should know better than to resort to violence, and instead use his heart.
The entirety of legendary- we'll be fine, for plot aligning reasoning would be the kid feeling akward in the crowded and new environment and being extra vigelant of creeps or general bad people. Also most of we'll be fine probably wouldn't apply well, but we keep Nya telling the child about Jay and how similar they are.
love in paradise would be very hard. Unless....
It's literally a one off where Jay finds himself stuck on an island. Probably stepped on a portal device and is now completely stuck, with no way home. Or even knowing where home is anymore. Instead of regular events, lets say Calypso- stand-in is actually a powerful being that helps him with clearing his mind and healing a bit because the man is a wreck. She's forcing him to self care and he wants to leave. Also I'm gonna give her mind related powers, kinda like neuro.
God games is fun because I could have that just be Nya finding a way to call on the source dragons, specifically energy and begging for some devine intervention. She has to convince many dragons.
Vengance-
I'm not sorry for loving you could either be another dream about Nya that helps him realise she was being genuine. Or It's the calypso stand in who is a shape shifter who tries to convine him to stay by shaping herself into "who he loves most" even though he doesn't know that is and just takes it as a further sign to go and pay the ninja a visit.
The same messanger dragon that helped him with the witch comes by to provide assistance across the sea and to the shore then leaves.
Now this could go down the forbidden Jay route, but here me out, he does find Nokt and the forbidden five randomly and kinda goes off on attacking them. At this point he'll electrocute anything in his way. Then Ras and Arin show up, the tiger man fully healed. Less intentionally and more they all ended up in one place type thing. Fight ensues. A storm approaches.
Arin is encouraged to hide. He actually comprehends the power scaling he's up against and does just that.
During the fight instead of finishing Ras off themselves, the five all stratigically retreat. The strength and at some point they realised you don't want to be on the other end of an electrical shock. Maybe Jay kills the weakest one. for funsies.
He goes for a beaten Ras next, aiming for the kill. He tries his best at least, but doesn't bother to confirm before taking the cloak and hat of one of the five that had been lying on the ground, and walking off to whereever home is.
He notices Arin, does bother much to question the kid on too much, and asks him where the ninja live. Arin just points to the vague direction of the monastery and says "On the mountain outside Ninjago, can't miss it."
And so Jay walks.
thats all I got so far. Until the Ithica saga comes out I guess.
I was very loose with vengance but that saga is all about just getting the vengance.
#wow this is kinda messy and a lot#welp I shoud get writing#*questioning how I could ever pull this off*#This so did not take me two hours to write.#I've been meaning to do this type of thing for a while actually#jay ninjago#ninjago jay#jay walker#Ninjago#spork likes to write#Epic: the musical#au's that aren't completely different from canon#ammi right?#THis will not be read over#If spot of inconsistancy just tell me#When writing I could wierdly feel the shift when this became less admin Jay and more wolf Jay centric.#Definitely left out how Jay gets closer to his team as this goes on

Mahi: Why what's happening?
Neta: *sigh* turn on the news..... I swear it's always me.
News channel: salmonoids have invaded the barnacle and dime mall. We advise everyone to steer clear of the surrounding area. Volunteers and employees of the grizz-co company must arrive as soon as possible to fix the issue. We will keep you all updated on further information we'll receive. In other news is turf war...... ruining our kids education??
Mhai: holy shit!! The whole mall is flooded!!.... Thank fuck we're on the second floor!!

Mahi: Right? I expected it to be like some sort of depression cave or something.
Mizole: hmm.... So what do you do anyway when you're here?
Mahi: nothing much. Watch TV, play his Nintendo, eat his leftovers, go through his shit........ find some really nice stuff. I took a nice t-shirts and a pair of his old sneakers. They don't fit but they're really nice....... There's a lot of interesting stuff if you look for it.

Mahi: I want my own money.........
Mizole: you don't like Baja?
Mahi: It's not that I don't like him...I like him, he's cool. It's fun to boss him around and tell him what to do. Since he's getting close to Warabi....*eating* They're dating now.......... He's going to be around more often.
Mizole: knowing Warabi. It'll probably be 2 months
Mahi:hehe...... What if Baja wants to move in? We have to buy another mattress... He won't be next to me.. What if Warabi wants to move out again? I'll be here by myself........ again........ what if he forgets me and replaces me with Baja.? A taller better looking vers-
Mizole: *eating* Babe shut up that's not going to happen. Ok? Warabi loves you. He's not just going to replace you with that weenie. I mean look at him....... Look at him Mahi! You can punch him in the face and he'll probably apologize to you! You worry too much babe you'll be fine....... And besides if he moves out you can move in with me.
Mahi: really?... Are we really at that stage?
Mizole: I feel like we are. It's a nice upgrade too, an apartment to a big house in the hills. What do you think?
Mahi: .... ... That sounds nice...... really nice.............. nice big house... We need to keep them together.
Mizole:hahahahahaha.....
_______________________________________________

Baja: are you at least a little worried that he might find out about this?.......... Oh hello
Mahi: hey
Mizole: hm
Baja: you must mizole.... You're the front man of what floor!
Mizole: and?
Baja: I'm a big fan of yours. When Mahi told me that they were dating you. I was really excited to meet you. I've been following your work for a long time. I was a big fan of you when you were with 'the deep sea divers'
Mizole: Yeah I have a lot of fans that's what happens when you have a tale- you know about the deep sea divers?
Baja: yeah! I saw you guys playing at the conch shell club 8 years ago.... Your first rendition of undertow amazing. I mean I like the final cut of it but your first draft was art!
Mizole:.......... You actually like that?
Baja: yeah!... they had a lot of personality in it. Why did you change it? It was so rugged and aggressive now it's all polished now which I love but the original one had such character
Mizole:............... Wow.....uh.......*humph*. You know heh .... when I got signed to a label they wanted a specific genre and all that....hehehe..........* Inhale* ...... What's with the bag and why is it moving?
Baja: oh They're salmonoids. I got some during my volunteer shift at grizz-co. Got a lot of these little guys. I like to eat them raw.....*eating* I got them for you mahi ait tons of them during my shift.
Mahi: nice! Thanks I like to eat them raw too...*eating* They're juicer too
Warabi: *ugh* I can never get used to that.......Any of y'all know Neta 's finflixs password?
Mhai: bassbaba@86
_______________________________________________
Mahi: okay so what's the plot of this?
Warabi: okay, so it takes place during the great turf war. Two soldiers one inkling and one octoling who grew up together and are childhood best friends. And the story switches from backstory to backstory until it goes all the way to present day and then it all comes together during the end of the movie. It's really sad like it's so sad.
Baja: Oh I saw this... We had to watch it in school
Mizole: eh
Neta: Why are y'all in my apartment?!
Mahi: *eat* hey boss. you look like shit.......
Baja: AHHHHH... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I told myself that I wouldn't do this again and I did it again. I'm really sorry I'm so sorry!
Mizole: would you get the fuck up! Stop kissing his ass. It's not going to do shit!
Neta:..................*sigh*........*moan*........... I can't do this today .....*sniff*...... What are you watching?
Warabi: 'war-torn brothers'
Neta: The one based off the book?
Warabi: yeah.....
Neta:............ Cici order something to eat and take a shower okay baby?
Cirrina: ok....You didn't go to my room did you?
Mizole/mahi: no
Cirrina: good Don't want your grody hands all over my stuff.......... Unless it's you baja hi!!
Baja: *waves*
Neta: I'm going to go take a nap......... Maybe have a nice hot bath first........Yeah that sounds nice.......... Nobody bother me and all y'all need to get out of my place by 6!
______________________________________________
Mahi and the gang did not leave around 6 they left around 11 but Neta didn't notice. The minute he got out of the tub he passed out @fish-at-fish-fish-resort
#mizole the shittiest person alive but the best boyfriend to ever exist#mizole used to be in an old underground band called the deep sea divers#It just felt like the perfect time to write this. I always wanted to write Neta doing a big run and now he's doing it. holy shit! yay!#mahi took neta's old sneakers knowing damn well they're too big the guy is a size 12#i was planning on making Warabi knock over his mom's urn but nah#no more sad old man neta moments now for tired middle-aged man neta who just can't catch a break and just wants to nap#question is mahi actually willing to move in with mizol because i was just spitballing when I wrote that#The big one team consisted of neta Warabi candi and cirrina#Baja was also there. it was on a different team and he spent most of the time eating. salmonoids.... feels very disturbing#after two shifts and being revived 16 times Warabi got frustrated and left#neta

Nothing is worse than shipping a rare pair so rare that there is literally not a single piece of media about them in this world
So if I want something I have to make it myself and no one wants that because I am unreliable even to myself
#there’s no one to blame but myself#I put these men in the same story and then had the nerve to think they were cute together#I found the single photo of the two of them standing side by side and let myself get lured in#I can write#but will i?#unlikely#I have three half finished docs already#but i cant#because I already had this man in a different pairing#now I can’t decide which I like better#the other one has allure because it isn’t a rare pair#but when do I like making things easy for myself#never#honestly I blame the WEBTOON#it filled my head with thoughts#their characters had the perfect base#a vampire hybrid and a werewolf#meanwhile my original pair was the hybrid and another vampire#that’s obviously less exciting#what to do now#enhypen#&team#&team k#park sunghoon#but really#Solon#khan#dark moon blood altar#dark moon grey city#rarepair

anyway, go read ikoku nikki.
#ikoku nikki#using the jp title bc iirc theres two english titles and idk which one's the right one: journal with witch or different country diaries#it's a slice of life coming of age story of a teen girl living with her aunt with two completely opposing personalities#the scanlation team really outdid themselves esp the translator#the dialogue feels natural it legit feels like overhearing actual irl convo most of the times#the aunt is only said to be introverted but tbh she's heavily ND coded#theres a genderqueer and aro side characters and their identities are just treated super casually (in a good way)#the bestie being a lesbian was kinda awkward but only when the protag discovered it bc. well. shes a teen kid lol#''i support you'' that gave me a good chuckle every single time#honestly just everyone in this comic in general. their existence and personhood‚ whatever it is‚ never made a big deal out of#(again: in a good way)#like everyone just exist. living their own separate lives. and sometimes their livings conflict with each other but thats just life#it's heartwarming and heartwrenching#it's made me nostalgic of my own teenagehood and looking forward of my 30s and older#it's just life. and i mean it. cant get any more slice of life than this#anyway yeah please do yourself a favour and go read it#now why the fuck did i write all this in the tags instead of the post#ah fuck i now have to screenshot it dont i
