LIAR LIAR CHAPTER DROPPP i cheered you cheered we all cheered

MY JAW DROPPED when tsumiki is the one kamo likes, i ruled her out as a possibility BUT IM GLAD TO KNOW THAT WONT CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS

im glad to see theyve truly never changed. just like in kindergarten, mermaid is still bizarrely lying and porcupine is humbling her lmfao i love them

also.. correct me if im wrong, but i was reading thru since you mentioned there was in fact a weird love shape happening with megs, y/n and someone else, but why have we ruled out the possibility of SOMEONE else being into megumi,?? 🤨🤔 like, some other girl comes and tries to split up mermaid and porcupine, and its kinda where y/n realizes her feelinfs for him cuz i love her but she is CLUELESS!!

anyways as always, your writing is amazinf?? like genuinely you can tell the passion you have for your work translates into what you write, its amazing

(this is me comifn up with liar liar predictions btw)

a long and juicy ask in my inbox? i cheered, you cheered, we all cheered 😋

i thought everyone forgot tsumiki would be an option — i was hoping for it so it could be more of a surprise but ig it worked out all the same 🫣 but yes indeed, i’m just as glad as you are 🥳

the title of the story is quite literally liar, liar, like if lying wasn’t illegal in college applications, girlypop would absolutely lie her way into an awesome theatre school or smth 💀 (and then megumi would be part of law enforcement and bait her out).

now THAT prediction… i mean, you’re right, everyone kinda forgot that a love triangle can go both ways here —> two ppl competing for y/n OR two people competing for megumi 👀 i’m not gonna say anything. like you mentioned before, you’re going in this blindfolded, and i’m not allowing you to take it off until the end 😋

clueless is correct, she’s absolutely clueless, and megumi’s not any better tbh

‘you can tell the passion you have for your work translates into what you write, it’s amazing’

so, that’s crazy! (i’m blushing)

ty so very much for ur support and love, i genuinely look forward to more of ur predictions and stuff. you could type in a full stop in my inbox and i’d eat that up 😫

your comic of erik "kidnapping" charles is living rent free in my head... I can't stop thinking of a scenario where somebody didn't get the memo about the vacation/kidnapping thing they've got going on and bursts into erik's Evil LairTM of the week to rescue the poor professor only to be mentally scarred at finding him making out nasty style with magneto

i cant stress enough how fast i went to draw this as soon as i got the chance god help any new x-man to the team

I see too many people punch down on blitz while expressing love for stolas :( like some people don't even try to understand why blitz acts the way he does in the context of his relationship with stolas and it irks me

like we as the audience can see that stolas is very genuine about his romantic feelings for blitz at this point, but despite the effort stolas puts in it doesn't just erase his behavior in their relationship initially (plus yknow the power imbalance that very clearly affects the way blitz sees their relationship). calling blitz an imp in condescending ways ("my impish little plaything" "imps like yourself", etc). there being a heavy focus on sex in their relationship (+ intimacy between the two of them being solely transactional for a lot of their relationship), heavy flirting when its clearly unwanted.. (I love stolas and this isn't meant to be slander, just observations and its okay to acknowledge his negative traits/actions)

I feel like you don't need to be Einstein to gather that all those little comments and factors are going to affect the way blitz feels about stolas/himself, or reacts to when stolas gives him genuine affection (which is deny deny deny that its even real bc up until this point.. how could it not be bullshit like everything else?)

add in the fact that blitz is starting to harbor very real feelings for stolas and that is obviously going to be so fucking scary for someone in his situation. also blitz's abysmal self worth on top of it all is probably gonna make it hard for him to accept that someone like stolas could really genuinely care for him.

tl;dr people beg for mental illness representation and when you don't get the idealized version (ie stolas) you resort to demonizing? this happened with pearl from su as well lol sometimes traumatized or hurt people lash out/isolate/push people away and no one is saying it's healthy or good, but its a very real experience that I wish ppl had more sympathy for.

In your honest opinion, do you think Lighter would date anyone he deems as an honorable, honest, respectful and trustworthy person?

I mean, considering how harsh living in the Outer Ring is and Lighter’s own backstory, I don’t think Lighter would care if he dates a man, woman or nonbinary person because he knows there’s more problems in their world than dating someone by their gender. He did see Pompey brutally turned into an Ethereal and Caesar almost dying in front of him after all, so dating a good person regardless of their gender is the least of his problems.

Also, I 100% know Lighter respects his s/o’s sexuality. He can’t date anyone if he doesn’t respect their sexuality.

personally, i think he would definitely want someone with a good heart and mind. from what i understood when he was talking about his past and now, it seems that he wants to live an honest life.

i think he’s more concerned about being loved rather than loving someone else. until we know more about his backstory, i don’t have 100% confidence to say that but i think he does find it a little difficult to believe he deserves your love. i think that does sort of affect how he loves and who he decides to love. he seems a little secretive but also telling us tidbits here and there? beating around the bush, being vague while still answering any questions we have for him.

another thing is that i think he would like you to be able to stand your ground especially in the outer ring. whether you can fight or not, as long as you don’t let other people walk over you is what i think he might look for. nonetheless, it is something that he can help you develop over time. he isn’t trying to change you, he just doesn’t want you to get into dangerous situations.

ALSO YES !! I BELIEVE THAT LIGHTER RESPECTS YOUR GENDER AND SEXUALITY !! if he loves you, he loves you. if he feels good around you, and you feel good around him, that’s all that matters. he wants to support you in every way and he will love you no matter what !!

OC-Tober: Day 14: Who/what inspired your OC?

Its a little complicated, and City is a sona of ours so that influences a lot, soo.... I wrote it out like ingredients?

[giantkillerjack]

Uh-oh! You are like, SOOO awkward!!

You're so awkward that it is occasionally mildly uncomfortable for people!

You're so awkward that sometimes people are confused by you and then there are awkward silences!

You're so awkward ...... that ultimately no one is harmed!!

Oh damn!!! What a vile crime you have committed! What an unforgivable thing it is to make a fellow human briefly confused!

Why, if *I* were ever briefly confused and kind of uncomfortable as a result, I'd be devastated.... by the absolute net zero change in my happiness and health! - From which I might never recover!! Yes indeed! No punishment can ever be enough for you!!

So you better absolutely hate yourself for it.

Better be SO MEAN to yourself about every single missed social cue so you don't forget your horrible crime! Meaner than you'd ever dream of being to someone else for the same thing! This is YOUR responsibility!

You need to show the world that you KNOW you are bad by punishing yourself constantly! After all, think of all the people who BENEFIT from you punishing yourself! - No, really! Think about it! Think about who benefits from your pain.

Think of alllllll the definitely-good people that your definitely-necessary self-torment definitely helps! I mean, you can't just cut off their definitely-life-sustaining supply of your suffering, right?? Sure, everyone else has a breaking point, but you're probably the only person in human history who doesn't, right? Best not to question it probably. Sure, it's a symptom that billions of people with trauma have had, but who knows? You could be a one-in-seven-billion exception. Anything's possible!

Instead, better just accept that idea that bullies carry like guns in holsters - the idea that people who have trouble with social cues deserve to suffer. Better carry on the burden they placed on you until you drop. Aid the cause of the callous by enforcing shame and suffering upon yourself extra hard; try your best to do their work for them. They're very busy.

Better not recognize that you need patience and kindness to heal from your trauma. Better not find out that it was trauma rather than personal weakness filling your head with self-hating thoughts. Better not find out it wasn't your fault.

Better not find out that awkwardness is not inherently harmful or unkind, and, in fact, the people who act like it is *are the ones enacting harm and being cruel.*

Better not get righteously angry when you realize just how much unnecessary damage this has done to you. After all, if you get mad, you might realize you deserve better. You might even feel brave enough to DEMAND better! You might build boundaries that keep you safe! You might make other people think they deserve to feel safe too! And we obviously can't be having that, so...

Better not show yourself even a little kindness a little bit at a time.

Better not make a habit out of it after all that practice.

Better not get confident.

Especially if you can't first wipe out every trace of awkward. (And you probably never will. Because people who experience absolute social certainty at all times tend to be insufferable assholes that enforce the status quo. And you just don't have the stock portfolio for that.)

Better not be confident and awkward because then you might confuse and delight people

- you might accidentally end up making other people feel less shame for their social difficulties

- you might make isolated, traumatized, and shy people feel like they deserve to be included in social situations

- you might even make them feel they can be themselves around you

- you might start loving the effect you have on a room

- you might enjoy conversations more

- you might forgive yourself and bounce back from shame more easily and frequently

- you might come to enjoy some of those moments of harmless confusion you cause because NOBODY expects the Confident Awkward, and that can genuinely be an advantage in social situations

- you might stop apologizing so much.

- you might find that socializing is like a video game: it requires practice but also a safe space for it to be fun and positive.

Or if you can't become assertive and confident, better not remain awkward and shy and quiet, and then love and forgive yourself anyway!

Why, it would be carnage!!

In either scenario, you run the risk of finding out that it's not your fault that safe spaces full of kind people can be really hard to find, create, and nurture. You could end up building a skillset that helps you do those things if you're not careful!

If you start giving yourself even the tiniest amount of grace at a time, you will find that you've accessed a gateway drug with extreme long-term side effects:

- You might realize that it was never your fault that it took so long to like yourself.

- You might realize that you were always worth talking to, even when you didn't like yourself and communication felt impossibly difficult.

- You might realize that you'll still be worth talking to even if communication becomes harder as you age and/or experience disability.

- You might come to know that you deserve to be heard even on bad days when words come slow and blurry.

You might discover that you were always deserving of kindness, first and foremost from yourself.

So. As you can see, it's FAR too much of a risk to start granting your awkward self free pardons for your many heinous and harmless crimes. Better to just leave it there.

the downside of being told you could be a lawyer when you were younger: they probably wanted your teeny-bopper ass to stfu

the upside of being told you could be a lawyer when you were younger: seeing red when a certain distant Family Member suggests they should just take your sh*t and rifle through it bc 'no one ever knows what you're doing on that anyway' and proceeding to look up court statutes case precedents and an Excel spreadsheet list of reasons why this will get your ass sued since i am no longer said teeny-bopper

who: jia & @thecjwelfordwhere: the bright sparks stall

STILL HIGH ON THE ENERGY FROM THE PARADE, jia was beaming as she put down the finishing touches at the arts and crafts table before the event actually got started. she was buzzing with excitement, hoping that the kids from her class, as well as their parents of course, would show up to do some fun pieces of art. there were a few tables under their tent where different groups could sit and make their creations together. "now ... do we have enough glitter ?" she looked over, spotting cj dressed completely in silver, with stars adorning his face. "cj, are you following ? do we have glitter ? also, where is the self drying clay ?"

Even through the fog on uncertainty and confusion The little doe finds her way and gets home to give this story a satisfying conclusion

Crys stares at the man in front of her, much taller than her, elegant, with a regal air to him and something that calls to her. "You... I know you." Crys whispers. There are flashes of moments in her mind, he was there but his name... his name...

Her heart beats fast in her chest, her breath catches and her cheeks feel slightly warm.

He chuckles. "I would surely hope so."

He places a hand at her cheek and she feels compelled to nuzzle into his warmth. He smells like... mate. Her mate, safe.

"I heard about your... predicament." His eyes soften. "I'm sorry you had to go through that. You were never in any real danger at least, but if I had noticed sooner..." He sighs. "No matter, all is well now. Welcome home, my dear Crystalfly (Jīngdié)" He murmurs lovingly in Liyuen.

Crys' eyes widen. "Jīngdié... T-That is...!"

It's like everything falls back into place, like her world flips on it's axe and she spins, her head pounds and she shuts her eyes tightly, stumbling back. Strong arms catch her and she gasps, taking a few moments to compose herself back again.

Oh this past week was a nightmare.

She looks up at the handsome man holding her. Her archon, her lord, her beloved, her mate.

Over 400 years and she still blushes like a teenager.

"Zhongliiii..." She whines, her eyes watering. "I was so scared!!" She clings to him, sobbing.

"Oh dear." He pats her softly, rubbing circles on her back to comfort her.

---

"Thank you SO much Kazuha." She nods at him, immensely grateful. "I don't think I could've kept my cool and found my way back so fast without you."

"No need to worry about that, I'm glad."

"You have my gratitude as well, young man." Zhongli adds. His amber eyes glint in interest, perhaps he catches something special about the ronin.

"Hm, as I said, I'm happy to meet and help a new friend." Kazuha inhales deeply and smiles, maybe catching something particular in the air.

"Oh! Rinrin, what are you and Alhaitham doing here? Are you on vacation?" Crys turns to her friend, now excited to see her again.

"We were worried about you. I tried contacting you multiple times but... nothing worked, we knew something must have happened." She exchanges a look with her husband. "Alhaitham wanted some help with a little project of his on ancient Liyue scriptures or dialects or something of the like hehe."

"I see, sure I can try to help! But right now I'm so tired... I want to sleep for a full day or more." She groans. And cuddles, she definitely wants cuddles. "Hm, I should probably send a letter to Palais Mermonia... Oh, and the Grand Narukami Shrine, I wonder if I can recover whatever belongings I left or lost at Inazuma." She sighs in defeat.

"One thing at a time, dear."

Meirin nods. "Rest is important. Ah, but now I'm wondering... what kind of youkai could do something like that, and how did they even get your name?"

"Actually I think I do know the answer myself." Crys says, she turns to Zhongli. "I recall getting a letter from you shortly before my returning date and you happened to address me as 'my dear crystalfly' as usual didn't you?"

"Oh. That is correct." So it was his fault?

Crys huffs. "Next time I go to Inazuma I will hunt down the youkai who did this." Her eyes narrow, hands at her hips.

"Woah, rare instance of Spring Bringer being violent."

It was good to be back...
