#would've been annoying to do anyways so im not mad

[37-shadows-in-a-trenchcoat]

Hello, you FREAKS. Its me, the ORIGINAL Shadow, here to. Yap about shit. I guess.

This blog is created by me, however apparently every single other version of me in the multiverse has to use this aswell. I genuinely don't know why. Best guess i have, is that the universe hates me. All versions of me. Or whatever.

This blog is mostly because I'm bored as shit, and also I need to put my insanity SOMEWHERE. So, im subjecting YOU GUYS to it. Also, feel free to ask questions n stuff. Actually, most of this will be me answering questions. Probably. I dunno.

I'd list my name, sexuality, pronouns, species, current home, stuff like that, but it varies a LOT, so...I guess I can just drop mine, and leave the option for any other versions of me to add their bullshit?

Shadow Prime, obviously, but I'll sign off my bullshit with like. OG!Shadow. AroAce, She/her or They/them, Living Shadow. I'm the original, and obviously the best. Uhhh what else. Oh yeah. I'm like. 45. Old as shit for you humans, pretty damn young for my species. So fuck off. My home is TECHNICALLY the Shadow Realm, however I visit Earth a bunch. Basically 50/50. [-OG!Shadow]

Sleep Paralysis Demon Shadow. SPD!Shadow. Aroace. They/Them, It/Its. Sleep Paralysis Demon. I don't remember. How old I. Am. Over 100. At least. I don't. Have a home. I go wherever. The sleep paralysis takes me. [-SPD!Shadow]

Hiya! NatGeo Shadow here! I guess the short of that would be NG!Shadow? I dunno. I've never really thought that hard about sexuality and all that jazz! I suppose AroAce sounds about right! Any and all pronouns are fine! I'm actually not sure what I am! Closest thing to describe me would be Living Shadow, but I'm far beyond the concept of species! I have no age, either! Been around a VERY long time though! I'm what humans call a Nomad! Don't got a home! I go where I'm needed! [-NG!Shadow]

Okay seriously whats up with NG!Shadow. Like. What the fuck. [-DT!Shadow]

You learn not to question it. [-OG!Shadow]

>:3 [-NG!Shadow]

Greetings. Shadow Goddess Shadow, SG!Shadow for short. AroAce, They/She. Living Shadow turned Goddess. 348. I live in the Land of the Gods. [-SG!Shadow]

:0 THERES A VERSION OF US THATS A GOD??? ADDRESS. IMMEDIATELY. I NEED TO ADD YOU TO THE SHADOWPEDIA. [-NG!Shadow]

Why do they sound so. Shudders. Responsible. Wait, Shadowpedia?? What the fuck is that??? [-OG!Shadow]

Jesus fuck dont you dare insult me like that. For your information, Ponfri was threatening to just not let me have a tumblr unless I acted professional. Oh noooo, cats out of the bag,,, whatever will I doooo... [-SG!Shadow]

Thought so. [-SPD!Shadow]

QJSHSJ HI. Okay uhhhh Dimension Traveler Shadow, DT!Shadow for short. AroAce(wow, a LOT of me's are AroAce), She/they, Living Shadow. I'm....Oh Goddesses, I lost track. Uhhh. 47...? 48? Somewhere in that age range. My home is technically the Shadow Realm mixed with earth, 50/50, same as OG!Shadow, though i haven't actually been there in years. Been bouncing around universes quite a lot. [-DT!Shadow]

Why, hello. Hm...I suppose I'm the only one still going by our actual name. Queen Shadow will suffice, I suppose. Q!Shadow for short. AroAce, She/her. I am a Living Shadow of course. 45 years old, and my home is the Shadow Realm. I have no idea why so many other versions of myself have enjoyed earth to the point of living there, but oh well. Goodbye lovelies! [-Q!Shadow]

Sniff. Sup freaks, I'm Villain Shadow, V!Shadow for short. Aroace, all pronouns, and. Unfortunately Living Shadow :3. Uhhhhhh probably around 130? I stopped keeping track after i started committing lots and lots of forever sleeps :33333. I MOSTLY live on earth, but i DO visit the Shadow Realm a bunch. Just to confirm I didn't miss any stragglers. Yknow? Teehee :3333 [-V!Shadow]

Hello!!! I'm Kid Shadow, K!Shadow for short! Or at least thats what NG!Shadow calls me! I don't know what an aroace is but if everyone else here is that then sure! Uhhh! She/her? I guess? I'm a Living Shadow, and I'm 12! Auntie says that I'll be big and strong and dangerous once I'm 31 though! I don't know what an earth is, but I live in the Shadow Realm!!! [-K!Shadow]

Hi!!!!! OOC Shadow here! My main blog is @shadow-the-artist-idiot if you weren't aware!

This blog is mostly exists because I thought itd be silly, so if people also happen to enjoy it, then thats just a plus!

Full disclosure, i have a LOT of Shadow AUs, so this post is prone to change as I add more. I'm not gonna post art or reblog stuff probably, unless its related to these characters, so most of the content here will just be in character shenanigans.

I'm gonna use "#Character Yapping" for general in character posts, and "#OOC!Shadow" for ooc posts! I also put the shortened versions of the AU names in the tags, so if you want to see content from one of them specifically you can. I also do incharacter yapping in the tags, so if you want to, make sure to check out the tags! this one will be the exception, but most other posts will have it.

I hope you enjoy! Feel free to ask questions and stuff!!!

A little bit of this chapter was actually p good but the rest was literally nothing. Like. What are we doing. What do you mean one more chapter left.

Spoilers in tags

[gaesnek]

tw: kinda long vent post :/

So my friend (if you see this i'm not mad or anything at you i'm not gonna shoot the messenger, i'm kinda too dissociated rn to be mad at anyone anyways) just texted me like lists from other ppl in our friendgroup (and adjacent) of all the things I do/say that annoy them or make them uncomfortable and i. i don't fucking know. some of the points are definitely valid (i'm well aware im not the best person (please don't read this as me trying to excuse/explain away anything, i'm not, and don't give me pity points)) and I get that most of us really aren't confrontational people but like it would've been nice to know in the moment instead of in a fuckoff long list of everything i've done that made someone uncomfortable/weirded out and that I never realized it. Some of the stuff was from like a decent while ago that i've stopped doing too or stuff I don't even remember happening (my memory is really shit so I wouldn't be surprised (god I would be SO easy to gaslight (but that's not whats happening here I trust these people enough to not lie to me))). Some of the stuff is probably over exaggerated, I think, or just like a complete misunderstanding of the situation but like. idfk I just, i don't want to lose another friend group especially one that I really love all the people in it but like if I annoy them this much maybe we weren't ever that close and I should leave.

was going to put these in the tags but realized they would be outside of the keep reading thing:

#at least there's the euphoria from actually being able to cry for once heh #between nearly having a panic attack in school from my teacher deadnaming me (among other things but that was the final straw) and this #i #it's been a shit day #idk why but the one thing that cuts deeper than anything else they listed was just "clingy" even though I know it's true #maybe it's because i know it's true

supergirl rebirth is annoying to me for cwsg related reasons, but also because n52 kara did not have to be changed so drastically in order to fit in as a more "traditional" supergirl. like at most she needed a new costume and a secret identity (and i'd change zor el + alura's characterizations, which is something that sg rebirth didn't even really do), but other than that she really was not that different or worse off from previous iterations of supergirl—especially towards the end of her series. she was living in new york among humans! she wanted to build a normal life for herself! she had a job! something that both pre and post crisis kara had done! it would've been so simple to build something off of that in her rebirth series instead of aging her down for the millionth time and cw-ifying her.

n52 supergirl has such a funny reputation of being this needlessly edgy grimdark version of the character when, in reality, the series just let her experience the full range of emotions that losing krypton and everyone she's ever known and loved would cause her in a way that hadn't really been done before—AND it still let her be kind and compassionate. it's like. 30% kara being sad that krypton was destroyed, 30% kara being angry at how she's treated by humans and her authority figures (zor, alura, and clark), and 40% kara forming deep bonds and friendships with people with similar experiences as her and protecting people around her from danger because she WANTS to !! crazy to me that dc traded all that in for fucking CW SUPERGIRL..... anyway im not mad or anything.

[jxcotts]

what's your honest opinion about the love interests? (both mcl and eldarya)

for example, no matter how handsome some of them are, I just can't like them (in fact, most of them are annoying to me)

ugh no yall gonna hate me forever lmao- ANYWAYS🥹

nath & nevra: they are so similar, their story, behavior so its pretty easy to love them both (i mean if they r your type lol), they can do no wrong😎 i cant really express my love for them, but yall know how much they mean to me so WHATEVER, just stan them !

armin: ahh he's such a cutie but also was very thoughtless, he did some bad shit in high school, but idk i just love him so much, best friends brother AND the gamer boyfriend trope are VERY entertaining💋

kentin: yeah well im not that okay w going from good boy to bad boy bc why???? and he was pretty rude to candy, when they were childhood friends and she did nothing wrong to him so i didnt understand it, but when he changed he was such a cutie. alternate life kentin is just ughhh THE CUTEST.

castiel: the good girl x bad boy trope is awesome, but sometimes he's an asshole, especially when he teases nath (high school), hate him for that, but his character development was cool and tbh i really REALLY like him w amber so... i have to say that she would've been the better choice, not candy. DON'T HATE ME. they were just more interesting TO ME. he and candy r lovely as friends tho <3

priya & hyun: they are cute and good friends! priya deserves everything and more <3

rayan: unpopolar opinion: hes ugly. and what the fuck. a teacher? lol.

eric: 😆 you dont want me to talk about this shithead, worst """love interest""" ever. please, you cant even call him as it lmao

lysander: well... ah please dont exile me, but hes a colorless character. the whole person is boring as hell to me.

ezarel: MAN I MISS HIM SM... hes such a silly character, im mad beemoov didnt bring him back in s2 and that nevra never talks abt him when they were like brothers. id love to see him and miiko in ep 20 (im a delulu<3).

leiftan: idk i just love his demonic side and his obsession with erika in s1🤭🤭 he's so supportive, but in s2 his story is so sad lol, he deserves better. he's not even that happy anymore-,, i love the tension between him and nevra lmaoo

valkyon: :) i love him as a friend and he def deserves so much better. i wish they could bring him back:/

uhh... help. ill be short.

the traitors: so... lance in s1 was EVERYTHING. i loved how cute he was with erika once or twice lol, but still, as the enemy its something. i just dont understand why beemoov didnt see the potential in season ONE ; the enemies to lovers trope would have been the greatest. seriously. uhm... no comment for season 2. i hate him as much as i can, lets be honest he looks like an annoying rat (SORRY) and im sorry beemoov, but i will NOT accept the enemies to lovers NOW after he killed his brother. erika had every opportunity to kill him, but ofc beemoov, keep him.

yeah about mathieu, hes as colorless as lysander, but even more.

manifesting an execution for both <3 (still a delulu😘)

if you still like me after all this, i love u:')

The ways Ted Lasso has changed my life!!

Ted Lasso is the reason I started therapy again and decided to actually fix all the things I've suppressed and not wanted to fix!

This week there are two things that happened that made me go: if this happened even 6 months ago I would be a wreck and I wouldn't even be functioning right now!

The first thing was at work on Monday I had a long day and had to leave, we were screen printing and started late, so I had to leave in the middle of it, now I'm there to help out bc my friend owns the business and they're really busy rn so they need people, but the guy I was working with was told really late that we were screen printing so he was frustrated that he wasn't told till just before.

However, normally in my head I internalize and think people are mad at me all the time for everything, so I literally said to myself "he's not mad at me, he's annoyed that they were starting late and he wasn't informed and I've been there all day, and I'm helping out, they appreciate any time I can give them.

All of which are not things I would normally tell myself and a behavior I wouldn't normally stop in the middle of

The second thing that happened was today, I was in the drive thru line in starbucks (mind you the starbucks that MY MOM WORKS AT, while she was working, and where I'm FRIENDS WITH ALL THE EMPLOYEES) and there's this guy behind me, he honked and was waving his hand out of his window, I could hear him through my closed window and I'm thinking "he's crazy, idk who he's talking to" then he GETS OUT OF HIS CAR, a litteral shiver goes down my spine bc I don't know what he's gonna do and I'm in shock, he gets up to my window and yells at me to move forward bc the person behind him can't order, I moved forward AN INCH bc there wasn't that much space ahead of me. He walks back to his car.

I'm frozen by the way, then I start crying bc it's traumatizing and I'm trying to be fine so I don't meltdown before work, but I get to the window and just start sobbing, I tell my mom and one of my friends, they deal w it

Apparently he acted like nothing happened and was gaslighting my mom, but the lady behind him (who he was doing this for) said that it made her uncomfortable and she almost called the police, and she felt so bad that this happened. Like im not overreacting, even someone who didn't have to take the brunt was uncomfortable (that's very validating)

But later I calm myself down and I'm thinking about in terms of "what's going on in his life where he thought that was okay" and "he must be having a shitty day to act like that" and this is something that would've made me INCONSOLABLE for a very long time about 6 months ago, but I'm not, I think I'm more level headed about it looking back even several hours after it happened than most people probably would've

Anyway all this to say that Ted Lasso has helped me in so many ways that I'm really starting to see a difference in the ways I react to traumatic situations and when it comes to generally overthinking things!

Hi :)

I just read "in silent screams" chapter two and it was absolutely amazing. I have never hated or been mad at wanda in the ifiss/ilgoss universe, but she really annoyed me in this chapter and I got a bit mad at her, but then in the end of the chapter i felt sorry for her, so im not mad anymore😅. I really fucking hate vision in this story and especially after he didn't use a condom, like thats so fuckt up to do without her consent, but thankfully she didn't get pregnant by it, if i remember corectly wanda didn'treally have that big if a problem with vision in ilgoss and i realky don'tunderstandthat after this chapter like how can she not hate him!!! I look forward to reading the next chapter.

Have a good day/night

-🐮

Hi there! Wow, thanks for giving the positive feedback first and for reading this very uncomfortable piece. I have to commend your pain/hate-tolerance if Wanda never angered you in IFISS/ILGOSS lol.

Vision was her "friend" or whatever. Vision got hurt and was in a coma, wasn't able to finish his course. Needed a bit of therapy to recover from his brain injury caused by R's attack on him. Wanda knows that and pities him, thinks he already got what he deserved. And she's concentrated on her own guilt, because that would've never happened anyway if she didn't decide it was a good idea to fvck one of her students. So instead of blaming him, she blames herself.

P.S. I laughed so hard at this: i felt sorry for her, so im not mad anymore because there's a Filipino term for when you give in so easily for someone at the slightest shift in the situation. It's the word "marupok" and we use it a lot when it comes to someone who loves/dotes on a person so much they ether give in or forgive so easily.

[ssvperboy]

i am a little annoyed about something so pls. just allow me to rant for a moment bc its what im good at lmao

my mom went into the ER bc she's peri-menopausal and she's been feeling a lot of pain in her abdomen/like, pretty heavy cramps. we initially summed it up to peri-menopausal pain from what she had described, but its persisted for the last 3 days and has not gone down at all... it's been affecting her every movement so she said "im going to the er, my friend is comign with me, pls stay home" and as much as i definitely would've gone, I: 1) know she's not going alone, 2) called her an uber so she didn't have to drive and 3) am being updated constantly. i also work tomorrow morning and she and her friend do not, hence why she asked her friend to go.

cut to my dad (who has never spent a night in the hospital with my mom since i was fucking born who has spent one DAY in the hospital with me and my mom once bc i had terrible cramps and couldnt walk and needed someone to carry me out of the house, BUT he was mad the whole time he was there 🤨) having a good ol' discussion with himself (technically with me but i have started ignoring anything he says bc hes just been pissing me off for months now ngl) about how i should be the one there with her and how could i let her go alone and a bunch of great, nice shit to really hammer away at my conscious--which btw, he didn't even NEED to do that bc i already feel guilty for not going. i literally feel guilty for everything all the time, so that wasn't necessary. BUT i know my mom doesn't want me there, she wants someone who understands what shes going through (i offered to go many times before she just outright said no)

unfortunately, i could not hold my tongue and i said "would u go?" bc the obvious answer is no. i've been accompanying my mom to the ER since i could have a proper conversation because he's refused. for years. so why now? (its bc theyre fighting). tell me why this man got in the car and went to the ER so he could stay with her? and i mean, yes, GOOD. THANK FUCK, actually. love my dad loads but lately (and mostly always, ngl) he's been an extremely selfish pos while under the impression that he's not being selfish at all??? idk what the fuck u call that.

anyway. he was all "okay.... bye i guess.... i am going now.... good bye" like.... 👀 just go???? anywayl. good for him for actually submitting to his role has a husband. i love that for him.

[tears-of-boredom]

played the first two episodes of Tell me Why today. damn. still wanna know the context behind why they call her by her first name. and also i kept calling Tyler gay in my mind and i kept reprimanding myself for that because its not a good habit to call literally every dude gay. but also...was i wrong. see if you call every single dude "gay as fuck" you'll be right some of the times at least. world philosophy right there. i have no idea what "world philosophy" means. i just say shit and hope it sounds right most of the times. oh and also i feel bad cuz i dont remember alyson's friend's name, like i somehow mi.....its michael isnt it. yeah theyre name is michael. at least i hope so. anyways so their vibe is so me. like we are on the same wavelenght vibe-wise. except i dont got game like him. man has rizz not gonna lie. smooth mother fucker. i did blush at those dialogues. you know the ones if youve played ep2. my mans got rizz like no other. also he's hot. and has a septum piercing. and i did call him gay as well just out of habit. tbh i really missed the opportunity to call alyson gay. i need to get on that tomorrow when i continue the game. to be honest i think its because i call attractive people gay. i dont know why really, but if i see an attractive person, i will call them gay as fuck. ig because in those moments i myself feel gay? idk. and sorry alyson, ig youre just not my type. girl's real pretty but i like my women with a bit more moustache ya know. and that isnt a way to say that i dont like women. i mean that whole heartedly: i lfind women who have moustaches attractive. mostly just because facial hair looks good on about anyone. clean shaven face aint my thing just in general. which is why im so fucking sad that i cant grow shit on my face. like bro cmon i have testosterone in me. atleast some amount. give me a fucking moustache.

anyways yeah i forgot to say that tyler is hot too. and also one thing is specific: theres one scene where i got this vibe that he wasnt angry at a person because there was a reason to be angry at them, but because, well,, when youve been angry at someone for so long, and people confront you about it, sometimes you just get stuck on like, defending yourself. defending your anger. even if there isnt a reason for it anymore. you dont want to feel like all the time youve been angry at them, you were wrong to be so. and when you get riled up, its hard to calm down and regocnise that forgiving someone in the present, doesnt invalidate the feelings you had of them in the past. and you just get stuck having this tunnel vision where you are angry at this person. doesnt matter why, you just are. because youve always been angry at them.

yeah so, i was probably just reading into that scene a bit too much, but i just related real hard alright. its the one with tyler and alyson talking to brown for the second time. it just fucking hit me. and then there was that later scene with tessa. and,, the vibes were just different. it was much calmer, and no one said anything that would've made him feel the need to be defensive. they had a conversation. and i think, if tyler and brown could manage to let out their steam, and then have a calm conversation, tyler would probably forgive him.

i just. i know that feeling so well. being mad at someone just because, well, you hate them. and you dont even remember why, but wouldnt you be such an asshole if this whole time youve been angry at them for no reason. so you double down. think that whatever it is that made you hate them, it was bad enough to warrant your grudge. and you nitpick all of their actions to find little things that annoy you, or something about their behaviour you didnt like, or maybe you didnt like the tone of voice they used that one time. and when your anger is running out of steam, you remind yourself of all those little things. and its hard to talk to anyone about it, because everytime you do, you find that there isnt really a reason for your feelings. and confronting that is hard, especially if youre doing with the person you are angry at. and the smallest of things they say or do in that calm moment can feel like an attack on your character. belittling you. or maybe they just laugh. and you dont like how lightly they seem to be taking this conversation. they arent taking it seriously. they arent taking you seriously. and you go quiet and add that conversation into the pile of reasons to hate them.

another media post that turned into venting. sorry. and yes that was about my mother, surprise surprise. though ive got testimony from third parties(mys sister), about how my mother sucks, and that evidence will last me for a while. im not even trying to forgive her at this point, im just trying to save myself.

she likes to say that im stubborn and resiliant. when adults ask what kind of person i am. i guess sometimes i feel stubborn in my anger, but that does not last for good things. i have no patience for myself, and no resilience to keep trying. i am pretty stubborn when it comes to proving people wrong. but most of the time im just trying to prove them that im not as good or smart as they think. showing that i dont have "potential for anything, if you set your mind to it". showing that i dont have the strenght to get out of bed. proving that "only a week of school" isnt easy for me.

god okay i dont want a repeat of yesterdays whole ordeal so im forcing myself to cut this now. sorry for the typos, i cant dwell on this longer.

[cupids-chamber]

is that a yanfei pfp omg, my inner and outer yanfei main loves you oh oh oh and and and also screw that dumbass ask this anon sent about yuuka THEY ARE SO INCORRECT GRRR "y'all only like yuuka because she is a girl!1!1!1!1!1!1!"

yeah no fucking shit so many of us like her because it solidifies the place of fem!yuus in the twstverse and stops dumbass people saying "hmph. its a MALE ONLY COLLEGE why do you have a female OC?? Just make a male OC???" (obviously not every person is like this and we should still appreciate masc OCs they matter just as much mwah) but we should denounce people who are so close minded.

like mannnnn that ask made me so annoyed but your response literally summarised everything i would've wanted to put into words but a bit less violent. the audacity they had to send in that dumbass ask smh like damn bitch let people enjoy a new character? so what if it's fem!yuu? like this is one of the times twst isn't being problematic but nah people still gotta have a problem with this and not the other issues (cough cough "Monsieur pyramid" cough cough)

also yuuken was actually pretty hyped up intially did that anon just sleep through an entire period of twst tumblr fandom lmao. i remember people writing so many fics and i haven't seen anyone say jack shit but the moment it's yuuka its "Nooo you're gonna project onto her waaaah!" like pls stfu we are literally just excited for a new character joining our silly fandom and becoming the subject of either a) unimaginable fluff or b) unimaginable angst smh /j

im sorry for taking my silly anger out in your askbox (ofc none of that is directed at you cause you wrote a bomb ass response to them and honestly you really put them in their place!) but that ask just annoyed me so mf much and i been thinking over my anger of it for a day and a half now

love your fics btw I get so mf excited when you post EJFHHEJD I hope you're having a lovely day mwah mwah, feel free to ignore this ask too no pressure 💓

(_____)

NO BECAUSE I HELD MYSELF BACK, I say a lot of shit when I'm mad so it's better I hold myself back in these scenarios. But that's true, like search the Yuuken x reader tag and you'll find a sum of fanfic's, if you go to the yuuka x reader tag.. It's just me!

Sure Yuuka's hyped up, but like you said a decent chunk of it was due to the fact that her existence makes it so no one can attack fem oc's. And yeah a whole other part of the fandom simped for her, but you have got to understand that majority of the twisted wonderland fandom from my experience is homosexual.

Like I know a decent few lesbians, who write twst fanfic, so it's like not much of a shock that people simp for her a lot. And anon has to realize that fanfiction was created so you can self insert yourself in a scenario.

Like making that comment on a fanfic blog, was really fucking stupid ngl. And it seemed misogynistic from my perspective, ngl. I didn't say it because in my humble opinion that might've been "taking it too far"

Anyways, thank you for sharing your opinion, (And it's ok to rant to me as long as your not being rude abt anything) AND THANK YOU FOR ENJOYING MY WORK <3 And abt Yanfei, I've been growing her! I may main her one she gets to lvl 90!

Sorry for any spelling mistakes part 1/?

Gonna probably rewrite the whole show with y/n in it!

Y/n pov

I wake up to the sound of the door to my cell room opening and a soft "honey get up and please hold out your wrist" and a guard bashing something into the wall.

I wobbly get up and hold out my wrist, one of the two guards put a band around my wrist.

When shes done her and the other guard start guiding me towards a hall which causes me to slightly freak out but i stay quiet.

As im being walked out i hear someone yell "LET ME GO YOU ASSHOLE".

They put me into a dropship, im being sat down next to a little girl who looks super worried.

I turn my head to her and reach my hand out so she can grab it if she wants "its gonna be okay" i whisper softly to her after she takes my hand.

She squeezes and gives a small smile.

After a bit i hear the voice of chancellor Jaha

"Prisoners of The Ark, hear me now. You've been given a second chance, and as your Chancellor, it is my hope that you see this as not just a chance for you, but a chance for all of us, indeed for mankind itself. We have no idea what is waiting for you down there. If the odds of survival were better, we would've sent others. Frankly, we're sending you because your crimes have made you expendable"

I hear a loud "your dad is a dick Wells"

"Those crimes will be forgiven, your records wiped clean The drop site has been chosen carefully. Before the last war, Mount Weather was a military base built within a mountain. It was to be stocked with enough non-perishables to sustain three hundred people for up to two years." he continues.

"Spacewalk bandit strikes again"

"Whoo!"

"Go, Finn!"

We hear multiple people speak up, making the girl next to me and myself turn to see this Finn guy float around the ship.

"Check it out. Your dad floated me, after all" Finn says to Wells.

"You should strap in before the parachutes deploy" Wells tells Finn with a very annoyed look.

Two other boys also take of their safety belts and start floating around too.

Then i hear a voice i havent heard in a long time

"Hey, you two, stay put if you want to live" its Clarke my sister.

Jaha's voice continues again "Mount Weather is life. You must locate those supplies immediately"

But then Finn speaks up "Hey, you're the traitor who's been in solitary for a year."

Which makes Clarke retort with "You're the idiot who wasted a month of oxygen on an illegal spacewalk"

I roll my eyes before speaking to the girl again "im y/n by the way" i say with a smile "im Charlotte" she says back softly.

We hear softly in the background "Your one responsibility is stay alive" before everything started going wrong, next thing i know we are on the ground.

Everybody gets downstairs and Charlotte and me go down leaving only some people upstairs to see a guard who was already talking "it up, guys" then i hear clarke speak up again "Stop. The air could be toxic" she says making me shake my head and think "we would be dead anyways if the air is toxic"

And the guard as if reading my mind said "If the air is toxic, we're all dead, anyway"

Then i hear another familiar voice "Bellamy?" Which makes the guard turn around and smile with a "My God, look how big you are"

They hug and i aww mentally, the rest of the conversation i dont hear due to me blocking their voices out. Charlotte has already let go of my hand and is standing in the middle of the crowd.

My attention however is pulled back when the dropship doors open which makes me freeze.

Octavia walks out and takes a deep breath before throwing her arms up and yelling "We're back, bitches"

Alot of people cheer loudly and almost everyone runs outside, im still frozen, and argueing with myself on what to do. What if i go out and Clarke is mad im there? She never cared when i was locked up, what if she thinks im ruining this for her?

A hand touches my shoulder and i look up to see a guy with goggles on his forehead "nervous?" He asks with a bashful smile, i quickly nod my head "very" another guy puts his hand on my other shoulder he has a friendly smile on his face "well you can stick with us" he offers making me smile.

"Thanks" i softly say, they let go off my shoulder only to both throw a arm over my shoulders, which results in a mess for a minute before they figure it out.

I snort loudly before covering my nose, which only makes them laugh, after a bit we get out of the dropship, and onto our new home.

My new friends, who have introduced themselves as Jasper and Monty, and i have walked around for a bit, having switched from me in the middle to Jasper in the middle with his arms around our shoulders, we found Clarke and Wells.

"Ah, cool, a map. They got a bar in this town? I'll buy you a beer" Jasper jokes while leading us to Clarke.

"You mind?" Wells asks before pushing Jasper which makes him let go of me and Monty.

A voice speaks up from behind us "Hey, hey, hey, hands off of him. He's with us" its the same voice that yelled at the guards earlier!

I look at the guy and realise he is very attractive, he looks back at me and winks.

I quickly look away before Wells speaks up again "Relax. We're just trying to figure out where we are"

Bellamy walks up behind us and puts his hand on my right shoulder where it connects to my neck,  while standing behind me to my left "We're on the ground. That not good enough for you?" He demands.

"We need to find Mount Weather. You heard my father's message. That has to be our first priority" Wells says trying to make his voice have some authority.

Then i hear the voice again, Octavia,

"Screw your father. What, you think you're in charge here, you and your little Princess?" She says kind of angry before she notices me "y/n" she says and walks to me.

She looks at her brother and playfully swats his hand away from me.

She then quickly pulls me into a hug "its so good to see you again" she whispers into my hair "same to you Tavia" i whisper back.

What i dont notice is a shocked Clarke and a smiling Bellamy standing behind us, Clarke is shocked because she didnt even realise her sister was here, Bellamy was smiling because his sister finally had a friend. Ofcourse he knew about y/n and he knew who she was when he aproached her, he had put his hand on her shoulder so he could pull her away if Wells tried something to her this time.

Octavia stops hugging me as Clarke speaks up again

"Do you think we care who's in charge? We need to get to Mount Weather not because the Chancellor said so, but because the longer we wait, the hungrier we'll get and the harder this'll be. How long do you think we'll last without those supplies? We're looking at a twenty-mile trek, okay? So if we want to get there before dark, we need to leave now"

Bellamy is now standing between Clarke Octavia and y/n, acting as a overprotective barrier, before speaking to the 100, well the 98

"I got a better idea. You two go, find it for us. Let the privileged do the hard work for a change"

Alot of people start saying "YEAH"

Wells dumbly decides to speak up "You're not listening. We all need to go." He wouldve made a point if there wasnt an angry crowd of people who hate his dad.

Murphy smirks before also speaking "Look at this, everybody… The Chancellor of Earth"

After that comment i see something in the corner of my eye and turn to it, it was a falling leave.

I walk away from Octavia and go to the leave, i pick it up and then turn it around multiple times.

As im inspecting the leave a whole arguement breaks out with Murphy and Wells but i dont pay it any mind.

The only thing on my mind right now is this leave.

After a little bit someone aproaches me and sits down next to me "whatcha got there, sunshine" i jump slightly before looking away from the leave and at the older Blake "leave" i say while dumbly before realising he might think i just demanded he leave so i quickly hold it up. He chuckles softly at the panic in my face "its uh very red" he says kinda awkwardly but has a smile on his face "well seeing as you are O's bestfriend, and im her brother i think you and i should become friends" he tells me. Im still looking at him but my face now has a smile "yeah" i softly say "we should" i look away after a bit of eye contact and look at the leave again.

"Oh also your uh new friends and O left to go look for Mount Weather, i tried to stop Octavia from going but" "shes super stubborn" i finish for him which makes him laugh softly. We then sit in silence for a while, it was nice and peaceful. Then i found a small round rock and gasp loudly, making Bellamy look at me with panic in his eyes before realising nothing happened.

He scoffs lightly "way to give a guy a heart attack, sunshine"

I offer a awkward smile before saying "im gonna give this to Via she will love this"

His eyes shine with adoring before he gets up "im gonna go walk around for a bit okay, ill come see you later,  sunshine" he says before ruffling my hair and walking away.

When he walked away i get up and put the stone in the pocket of the skirt i have on, seeing as i got arrested the second i was born the guards took pity on me, both my parents are still alive and because of their jobs they had the choice to keep me or even put me up for adoption for gay parents who couldnt get a kid.

But Abby basically begged Jaha to put me in the skybox.

Because of that the guards have always been extra nice to me and because i was in solitary my whole life they let me sew stuff so i could atleast do something, everytime the offical clothe makers had left over fabric the guards got their hands on it to give it to me to do with it what i wanted.

Thats how i had a skirt as the only person from the 100.

Luckily for me alot of people gossip so people dont assume im like Clarke and Wells or that my different clothing means im privilaged, almost everyone on the ground knows about why i got locked up.

As i reach the dropship i hear two voices speaking "You know, my father, he begged for mercy in the airlock chamber when your father floated him" its the guy that winked at me and Wells.

The latter who just said "You spelled die wrong, geniuses"

Bellamy who i hadnt even notice walk up adresses the guy and his friends "If you're gonna kill someone, it's probably best not to announce it"

Mystery guy scoffs "You're not really a member of the guard, are you?" He doesnt ask he more demands to know.

Bellamy looks around for a bit and his eyes lock on mine for a second before he turns back to the guy and starts talking "No. The real guard will be here soon unless we stop it. You don't actually think they're gonna forgive your crimes. Even if they do, then what? Guys like us, we're gonna become model citizens now, get jobs, if we're lucky, maybe pick up their trash?"

Another person i dont know speaks up from the group "You got a point?"

Bellamy scoffs "no" he laughs a little and walks closer "i got a question. They locked you up, dumped you down here like lab rats to die. So why are you helping them?"

He asks, the other person looks confussed before scoffing a laugh "the hell we are"

I look at bellamy confused as to what it is he is trying to prove, its like he feels my eyes are on him and he walks up to me and softly grabs my arm right under the wristband holding it up "You're wearing these bracelets, aren't you? Right now, those things are telling them whether or not it's safe to follow us down"

The guy whose name i still dont know talks again, eyeing Bellamy's hand on my arm "Okay. You said we could stop it. How?"

Bellamy notices his glances and moves my arm back down but still holds onto me, not in a weird way but in a protective kind of way.

"Take them off. The Ark will think you're dead, that it's not safe to follow. You follow, Murphy?"

Making me look at him with a weird emotion inside me, i softly try to tug my arm out of his grip but his grip doesnt falter.

Then the guy who i now know is called murphy steps forward to us "Right, and if we do, I mean, what's in it for us?"

Bellamy just smiles and says "Someone has got to help me run things, and it cant be sunshine here"

I gasp offended before remembering there is a crowd and quickly turn my body so its hiding behind the taller and bigger man.

Me doing that results in Bellamy letting me go, he looks at me wondering if im gonna wonder off but i dont.

He ruffles my hair again with a fond smile on his face, before turning back again with a stern cold face.

Murphy takes off his wristband and starts taking other wristbands of from people who are willing.

Wells walks up after Bellamy asks "who is next" with a angry "what the hell are you doing?"

Bellamy turns to face him and opens his arms as if showing something off "We're liberating ourselves. What does it look like?" I sigh thinking this will just turn into an arguement so i walk to the dropship and sit in the door, looking at my wrist band, do i want to take it off?

Soon people are chanting "whatever the hell we want" and then there is a loud sound i jump slightly before putting my hand on my heart in an attempt to calm down.

It doesnt take long for there to be rain, i smile but keep sitting in the drop ship, not really looking to get wet.

I hear Wells talk again "we need to collect this" only for Bellamy to say a simple "whatever the hell you want" and with that hes approaching me and takes off his jacket. He slings it over my shoulders, ruffles my hair again and walks off to stand under a tree and watch the 100 dance and have fun in the rain, our people.

the puppy pack playing just dance:

listen. liam and mason have been playing just dance since forever. they are the masters. they always get the highest score. they may look ridiculous and sweat a lot. but they are the kings. it was david's first christmas present to liam and he didn't like it but smiled and thanked him anyway because "he's really cool and makes my mommy happy". one day mason was at liam's and they were bored so "hey let's play that dancing game david bought you. it seems fun" "ugh fine". mason was right, it was fun. he was actually really good, and liam was a competitive little shit, so he elbowed him and the wii remote slipped out of mason's hand and destroyed the tv. liam's parents weren't happy about it. neither were mason's when they had to pay the geyers for a new tv. luckily, they are older and wiser now and haven't done anything like that again (yet, corey says it's only a matter of time)

corey doesn't want to play with mason and liam because they hate to lose and he's just there to have a good time, but sometimes he agrees to play with mason only when the dance is something coupley and not really a competition. he sings along very loudly and off-key, sometimes lori joins him and everyone hates it ("oh my god shut up" "YOU shut up, alec). once the neighbors thought there was a fight or someone was dying because "god, what the hell is that noise?". also he won liam once and liam refuses to play (alone) with him since then

theo doesn't play because "im not playing some dumb game that doesn't make sense since you can get points and even win just sitting on the couch and shaking the remote". truth is, he just doesn't want to embarrass himself and enjoys being in the back watching his friends (he has friends now!!!:) ) laugh, have fun and be happy. he dances just a couple of times because brett can be very persistent and liam is holding his hand and is pretty and looked so happy when theo agreed the first time. but then liam gets really close to him, (barely) touches theo's waist from behind and theo immediately sits down and he's blushing and refuses to play again. hayden and alec are the only ones who notice and, while they're kind enough to let it go unmentioned, they don't stop laughing at him for 3 hours

brett uses every single opportunity to poke whoever he's dancing with (except lori, obviously) in the butt or slam the side of his hips against theirs (hayden and liam are *this* close to murdering him). 'i like to move it' is his go-to track because he's annoying like that and once he tried to seduce nolan by dancing shirtless. nolan says it didn't work but they all know that's a lie, his face was bright red and every supernatural in the room could tell his chemosignals were going crazy and his heart was beating super fast. also, it almost worked on mason, so... (corey would've been mad about that if it hadn't almost worked on him too)

nolan is very shy but he plays because he wants to Belong and Be Part Of The Group. once he's a little more confident he's surprisingly good?? liam and mason are Not having it and try to convince everyone he's cheating. nolan says it's not his fault he's the only one good enough to get 'perfect' on every move, it's mason's and liam's fault because they're bad at it. mason really wants to break the tv again and lori and corey have to physically stop liam from punching nolan, who liam wishes was still afraid of him. theo thinks they are ridiculous and brett thinks that THEO is ridiculous. nolan thinks they are all ridiculous and should admit that he is the ultimate just dance king

lori and alec don't take the game seriously. they're just singing and jumping and laughing without paying attention to the actual moves. lori gets 1 or 2 stars most of the times but alec sometimes wins because of how hard he's shaking the wii remote ("see? i told you, you don't even have to do the dance right" "C H E A T I N G" "im not!"). alec's favorite person to dance with was nolan because he was shy and he wanted to make him feel comfortable and have fun, but then he proclaimed himself 'the ultimate just dance king' and now his favorite person to dance with is lori, who is really pretty and makes him feel warm inside (she's also really strong, once she lifted him up and alec loved it). lori's and hayden's favorite dance when they play together is the victorious theme song and it's the only dance lori takes seriously and tries to do all the moves right

hayden is obsessed with the fitness mode, she thinks they should play it because it's also fun but she receives an unanimously No everytime she suggests it. one time she forced corey to dance to 'the final countdown' with her but corey gave up after a minute because the jumps were too exhausting. her favorite dance is 'what makes you beautiful' and she and brett fight every time over who gets to be harry ("im pretty sure none of the dancers is actually harry styles" "shut up alec"). she can be pretty competitive sometimes, but she doesn't act like an whiny child like mason and liam ("whatever, you're just jealous of us" "exactly. YOU are a whiny child")

12.01.23

sooo a lot of confusing things happened.

i went to see puss in boots yesterday and the hype is so worth it! im obsessed! it was so good!!!

and guess who i invited to the cinema with me...............

yeah, i know, i don't understand either. i texted him when i was on the train from luzern and he said yes. and so we went together.

(i was being weird on the phone with my parents about it so now they think that i have a secret lover lol. like idk i just can't lie to my parents so when they asked me who i went to the cinema with i was like "nobody!!!!" and it sounded very sspicious. so yeah, they believe that im seeing someone new now. but no lol. im just back on my bs.)

after the film we decided to go get a drink (i had green tea) and we had a very strange conversation. i told him about the books ive been reading and how im slowly making my way through kundera's "immortality" but i don't understand any of it. and then we talked about immortality (bc it was also a theme in puss in boots!) in relation to fame and who gets to be famous and who will always be left in the shadows. and then we said something along the lines of "extraordinary people get to be famous and normal people don't". and then i started telling him about how i think that it didn't work out between us bc we're not normal and we need normality to balance things out.

he said that his first relationship was with a normal person and, even though she was amazing, the relationship was boring. and he said that when he realised that i was crazy he found it charming. and it made me blush.

but anyway i started telling him about my zurich friend and my normal boyfriend fantasy and how i just want to fall in love with a normal person and be normal and hold hands. and he said that my zurich friend is very far from normal and how what we had was actually a normal relationship and i was too spoiled to realise it. he predicts that im gonna realise it in the future bc im gonna meet a lot of shitty guys and regret leaving him. but it will be a good learning experience for me.

and yeah he said that im not making sense and im speaking nonsense. and i think he's right bc ever since i isolated myself from society ive just been a bit insane. like im slowly descending into madness which i think is good for me bc i really need to think and analyse things. but at the same time ive become detached from reality. and now i have all these theories about wanting a normal boyfriend and hating the balkans.

then okay girlies bear with me... i missed my last tram and..... slept over at his place... yikes, i know i know.... but he promised we were gonna sleep in different beds (spoiler: we didn't) and we were just gonna drink tea and chat (spoiler: we didn't just drink tea and chat). and uhh im not gonna go into the details but i didn't feel really good. i just felt like... annoyed i guess is the best word to describe it.

i asked him if we could be friends bc i really want to be friends with him. i want to see his future spouse and kids and i want him to see mine. and i want us to be best friends until we die. but he said that if it's definitely over between us as a couple, we're not gonna see each other again. and it made me sad. why so harsh? why can't we just admit that it doesn't work and stay friends? he wouldn't give me an answer.

this morning we talked a bit more about our relationship and normality and stuff. and he said that in order to be a better and more mature person and actually learn from the past, i need to face my fears and confront him. and we can try to be bf/gf again but make an effort this time. and if it doesn't work, at least we would've tried.

so i was thinking about that for the whole day today. weighing the pros and cons and trying to understand what is "délire" and what is actually reasonable. i feel like im missing something in my brain, i swear. why do i never know what's right and wrong? what do i want and what do i not want? i feel like im disabled or something idk.

and then all of a sudden my dad (who i haven't heard from in a while) messages me like "call me now". he's in india now and i thought it was something urgent. so i called him. and the call lasted only 10 minutes (usually he goes on and on about conspiracy theories for like an hour). and this is what he said:

"you need to get back together with B!!! he's a good man. and it's rare in our day and age. there's a slavic genocide going on. and you guys have a problem with homosexuals in europe. and B represents gender values and he's a real man, which is so rare! sure, nobody's perfect i mean look at me. but B has more pros than cons. sure he's lazy, maybe he even goes to see other hoes from time to time. but nobody is perfect and your clock is ticking. you're 23 and healthy, it's the best time to have a child! if you're still unmarried at 30, people are gonna look at you weird. marriage is a status symbol, you know, it doesn't mean anything. you can get divorced. but being divorced at 30 is so much better than never having been married. it shows that you're a serious woman. and you should try to get back with him. organise a theatrical performance or something, i don't know. and tell him that the wedding's in may so he will be keeping busy organising everything. it's better to do things you regret, than regretting not doing things. okay bye!"

what the fuck.

Shout out to @kyokokittykat for the help writing this part!

A Yandere Rantaro x Fem!Reader

"I did this for your own good, I'm doing this out of love, you've been dead without me"

His taunting words echoed in your mind as you're tied in his dorm, how did you get here? Well, it started when you were in the library, you were almost murdered, a metal steel ball rolled on the books and almost got you in the head and would've killed you if Rantaro had not pulled you back. The steel ball hit the harsh ground with a loud thud as he held you close to him, your back is against his now breathing heavily chest, he seemed greatly disturbed and honestly, you're not far from the same thought. Whos trap is this?! 

You looked at Rantaro as he sighed placing a hand on your head messing your hair up "I'm glad I came when I did, you could've been the next victim" He gave you a sweet smile but..how did he know you were there? He had indeed been a bit...stalkerish and creepy before but at least it did pay off to have him as a stalker, he did save your life. 

But something changed since that day, he's been more clingy and more..persistent in hanging out with you and being with you, you also been hearing strange noises outside your dorm window only to find someone staring at you, but before you could see who it was they left, only yo be assumed Rantaro. It's getting a bit excessive and more creepy than you would allow. You need to speak to him and luckily it seemed he wanted to speak to you too, that did worry you, he seemed serious, and knowing him it may not end too well but he did save you, he wouldn't just turn around and hurt you..right? 

Its almost night time when you was supposed to meet Rantaro b[out back behind the school but Kokichi stopped you 

"Heeeyyyyy Y/N! Why are you out so late? That seems kinda suspicious dontcha think~?" He chimed smirking, you sighed annoyed, you didn't want to be late.

"Nothing Kokichi but better yet what are you doing out here?" you asked, he laughed

"I heard Shuichi and Kaito train outside so I wanted to go bother them when they show up! "he grabbed your hand as you tugged back to get lose, now 15 minutes late to your meeting.

"Kokichi now is not the time-"you were cut off when he held you close

 "I know you're meeting that creepy avocado man, he walked by earlier and gave me the creepiest glare! But..It would be a shame if you were taken right out from under his nose! You see I like you and I'm sure we can make this killing game much more interesting together~!" He laughed but then a rather tall shadow appeared behind him 

"It would be a shame wouldn't it be? Too bad they're taken by me"His voice..it was dark, cold and laced with poison, he was not happy, it was Rantaro, he must've gotten worried when you didn't show up and went to look for you only to find you in Kokichis arms, how unfortunate for poor Kokichi Oma.

Kokichi jumped back letting go

 "Oh, it's just you, god you're such a creepy-ass arent you!" He teased the already pissed man who grabbed you pulling you to him. 

"This is your only and final warning Oma, leave Y/N alone and you won't be the reason ill become the blackened got it?" he threatened the other, at first Kokichi laughed but then his smile changed when he noticed how serious the man was 

"Oh well, it's not like I really liked them! It was a lie! Anyways ill go find Shihara-Kun to bother!" he said quickly making his escape.  Rantaro sighed annoyed but then smiled kindly "Now that the pest is gone let's go to my room, we will have our little talk there so there can't be any more interruptions"He seemed so kind yet scary at the same time. You should've rejected, should've said no but instead, you nodded and followed him. 

Once in his room he closed and locked his door, the room was pretty clean and neat, did he even sleep in here? It didn't seem like it, he turned to you and smiled.

"What did you need to speak about Y/N-san(Kun/chan)?" he asked as the question threw you off, you expected him to talk about why he wanted to speak to you. You shallowed thickly as you gathered the courage to tell him.

"Rantaro...You've been a bit..clingy, its been creeping me and the others out, I mean I feel someone is watching me at night and I wouldn't be surprised if it was you!"That came out harsher than you expected but he needed to know that he should back off some. 

His kind smile faded as he gave you a similar look as he adorned when looking at others, it sent shivers down your spine, he walked over as he placed his hands in his pockets 

"Y/N..oh Y/N, you don't understand, you're so nieve it's almost sickening~" His voice was much different, his look as if he's mad but his voice, it was more..as if he's entertained? 

He pulled some rope from his pocket, it wasn't very long but it will do. He was shift as he grabbed you and managed to tie your hands before you could react, but once your hands were bound behind your back he smirked.

"Oh Y/N, with your hands tied you look so vulnerable...so delicious," He said as you struggled in the restraints

"R-Rantaro, please! I didn't mean anything bad by what I said-" He cut you off placing  a finger on your mouth "shh, it's not what you said, well..it did aggravate me but I originally planned this already, you just fueled the already growing fire within me~"

"w-what..? Rantaro! Let me go-!"

"I did the for your own good" he started 

"h-huh?"

"I did this out of love, you would've been dead without me"

Your eyes widened as he climbed onto you

"Now you'll be repaying me for what I did with your body~"

He said as he kissed you roughly, you tried to fight back by biting his tongue as he growled "you..you bitch! Cant, you be grateful?!"That seemed to tick him off further as he had a type of survival knife! Where did he get that?? 

he was quick and swift at cutting at your clothing "h-how do you-"

"Don't you know? I'm the Ultimate Survivor, you're in for a treat dear Y/N~"That's his Ultimate? Before you could have the time to think he attacked your neck leaving hickeys as his slender hands explored your now exposed body, you shuttered as his hands were cold but his rings were colder, it didn't help the crystal necklace he wore now dragged along your stomach with every movement he made, so gracefully as if you were some kind of porcelain doll. 

He soon moved down your collar bone leaving more marks as he slipped two fingers into you, it took you by surprise as you yelped and moaned out but quickly biting your lip to prevent any more moans from slipping out. He chuckled moving them at a steady pace

"Already soaked for me Y/N~? Such a naughty girl~" He smirked 

"Unfortunately for you, I'm not a man who patient so this is all the warming up you'll be getting"

"W-what do you mea-Ah~!" He had trusted his hips into your own colliding as he stretched you out, he seemed to take note that you weren't a virgin "who?" he asked, you stayed quiet, not wanting to answer, and looked away. He pulled your face to him 

"Who?" he asked again as one sharp thrust got you in a moaning mess "K-Kaito!"It was true, you two had a one-night stand, I mean what did you expect when putting a bunch of hormonal teenagers together with little to no supervision? 

Either way he was not happy as his movements became rougher and harsher

"Ill be sure to pay that man a visit later"He said annoyed but the pleasure brought him back from his anger, his face melting from an annoyed look to a more pleased face. 

He held onto you as his hips rocked into your own roughly as you couldn't even keep in the moans, you was lost in the pleasure as you noticed his thrusts became more sloppy, you also felt a familiar knot building in your abdomen as you tried to speak "R-Rantaro I-Im-"

"I know I'm going to as well-"He groans in your neck as he released, but the problem was you don't remember him putting anything on. 

"Oh i see you noticed, you're mine and mine only, ill make sure they know~"

That's a lot of words! My longest yet! 1572 words!

MC still being kinda weird, plus an awkward talk on centrism-6/4/22

Hello again! Today was kind of a strange day. I came in on time, and nothing much happened in school (we watched Lady Bird in English class, which is probably the most "coming of age" film I've ever seen, it's entertaining but I can't really feel sympathy for the main character because they go really far with the " no one understands her" trope without giving us any reason to understand her because she's irrational and mean lol, in politics class I didn't have to do anything because it was politics class and I finished the project I was supposed to do agessss ago). Everyone was in today, MC, FW, OF and CW, and with all these people it still felt very awkward. CW was leading most of the conversation talking about how bad the movie Morbius was because he went to see it yesterday, but MC was still very quiet and reserved and I wasn't sure what to say to FW, because I think we're both kinda bad at starting conversations.

After the school day ended, MC and OF and I went to the supermarket to get food and then we sat outside around the side where barely anyone comes and talked. OF, as he usually does, began to talk about politics and stuff (he is an anarchist and pretty far left). Now, I have a running joke, that whenever OF goes on one of his political rants, I would counter it by taking on a persona of one of these politically incorrect radio loudmouths which annoys him. I don't actually believe these things I say and I'm actually quite left wing like him, but a year ago alot of the group were kinda snooty about their political beliefs and if you disagreed they'd look at you like you had two heads and scoff at you (another reason why Anna doesn't get on with the group anymore) you couldn't even joke about not agreeing with them, so I began to slowly poke fun at OF and over time I made bigger and bigger jokes which would eventually make the group less snooty, and for the most part it worked. But today was kinda different.

Same as yesterday, MC was laughing and joking around with my persona, and they began asking what a "centrist" even is (I called myself a centrist because when i was alot younger I fell down the rabbit hole that many newly-pubescent teenagers do of Ben Shapiro videos and feminist-rekt compilations, but I didn't want to be right wing because i wasnt homophobic or anything and I thought centrist sounded smarter at the time because you considered both sides of the argument). OF showed them an article on it and they were like "this shit is genuinely wrong, they have to pick a side", which whether you agree with what they were saying or not, it was mainly just that they had an aura about them like they were waiting for me to say something and their voice had already become raised. I eventually had to clarify that I don't really believe this stuff, which I thought would've been obvious because the points I bring up are really dumb. And OF responded with "of course you're left wing, you're gay", which is its own little can of worms. I'm not gonna sit here and be like "aww right wing gays are so underrepresented" but I just think it sets a bit of a weird standard to be like all gay people have the same views.

Anyways things mellowed out and I went home, after that not much happened. Anna replied to me and she was kinda pissed about MC acting like I was being rude to Anna. She is biased against MC cuz she doesn't like them but to be fair when MC was mad at me for supposedly being rude to Anna, it felt more like a grasp at the moral high ground from the way that they phrased it, and im sure they wouldn't want Anna to be genuinely made fun of for their hyperfixating but it felt like there were also ulterior motives, because they know that I'm also neurodivergent and I talk to Anna everyday, so its not like I dislike her.

Overall, I'm not disagreeing with alot of the stuff that I'm complaining about. I'm complaining because in the past few days, MC has been very quiet and won't talk for the most of the day and then suddenly gets very confronting on different things, usually things that they know I already know about. Idk, I hope this all mellows out soon.

After that, I studied for an Irish exam I suddenly found out was tomorrow and I watched another episode of twin peaks, and now I am in bed finishing this up. Night Night to everyone!

Welp... here we go...

If you dont want spoilers then I recommend you skip this entire post because I do not respect this film at all to not talk about the shit that happens in this film.

⚠️AFTER THIS LINE ITS ALL SPOILERS⚠️

This films wants to be an emotional gut punch but it is so... I your face about it. Emotional beats are either predictable or just... they don't hit. And the ultimate sacrifice from Bhgs at the end while sad just doesn't hit anything. And the plot of "Oh the main villain manipulates the kid to go against his dad and the villain ultimately joins the rival team" is really predictable. And I know that in the end this is a film targeted to kids and thats fine. But this film felt like it was trying to be too hip and too aware (the entire joke about LeBron acting hip and the 'don't dab' comment is just not funny)

The jokes

The jokes in this film do not land for me, albeit 2 (the joke about Sylvestar grabbing Michael B Jordan instead of the actual Michael Jordan was ok and the fact Wiley Coyote was in Mad Max was really cool) ; most the jokes either fell flat or completely missed the mark (this film tried to be hip and modern with its humor and honestly it was more cringe than anything else.

Also idk if this was intentional or not, but can we stop making jokes about how companies are stealing our info and spying on us? We get it Zuckerberg is trash Facebook and other big companies are taking our personal info but seriously it does get old. Mitchell's vs the Machines was at least clever because it was about a big tech company abusing it's power. Space Jam: A New Legacy is about an A.I trying to make himself feel better cause he doesn't feel appreciated and is projecting his issues on a kid he cyberstalked for a whopping 3 minutes.

The Plot

The films Plot is predictable, short, and a around not engaging. The idea of bringing another pro basketball player to aid the Tunes in another wild game for their survival isn't the problem, it's the rest of the Plot that's the problem.

The first film had a simple enough Plot that worked really well (The Tunes have to win a basketball game against roided up aliens or they'll become Amusement Park attractions, and they need a bow retired player to hp them win) Its short and sweet and it works.

This film felt the need to overcomicate it by forcing a dramatic subplot into the fold which, can work. You can have a dramatic subplot while still being a Zany and fun film. But SJ:NL can't seem to decide which to focus on; it goes from zany and over the top one moment moment then gives you tonal whiplash when it jumps to the dramatic bits in the plot.

I genuinely think that this film would've benefited from focusing on the zaniness over the drama, since frankly that's always been the focus of the Looney Tunes

Loony Tunes: Back in Action and Space Jam 1 are two tonaly similar films but both have better comedy and each have their respective dramatic beats, though their both saved for the climax of the film.

LT:BIA and SJ1 both have they're own dramatic subplots (M.J makes the deal with Smackhammer to raise the stakes of the game and J.D has to save his father from the Chairman and his plans. The difference here is that these films, while adding a level of drama, don't let the drama overshadow what tnis film is actually about (the Looney Tunes)

SJ:NL let's the drama completely overshadow the actual Tunes and isn't really engaging (to me anyway)

Also I'd like to say that, while giving this film a video game feel was an interesting concept it just reminded me more of Pixels or The Emoni Movie (though this wasn't NEARLY as bad as the Emoji movie I'll say that)

That's something else about this film. It feels like one big advertisement for everything WB owns (much like how Emoji Movie was one big Smartphone ad) and while that isn't inherently a bad thing it can be a hinderence to the film as well (I wanted to watch the films that cameod in this film more than the actual film itself)

The Characters

Look this is the Tom and Jerry film again, we don't go to this film for LeBron and his fictional family (if some people do then that's fine) but most of us go to see the film for the Tunes and the cartoon asthetic, and there's plenty of that here. But I'd like to actually care about the human characters in this film frankly.

Let's just get this out of the way, LeBron is not a great actor. He tries his best yes but he is not a great actor in this film; he reminds me more of Vin Deisel when he acts (he has a voice yes but he doesn't act physically. It's like he's trying to have his voice match the film but his body isn't in tune with it.

Now I don't wanna hate on kid actors, they do what they can and they're kids. But listen this kid was not interesting at all, and id have rathered the film not include him (or very least make him more interesting other than the "Gosh Dad stop pushing your ways and beliefs onto me" archetype.

The Tunes are fine I have no beef with how they treated the Tunes (all for ONE detail)

The way thsi film treats the Tunes in this film bothers me on so many levels. "Send him to the Rejects" "Losers" The fact that they treat the Looney Tunes like they're some forgotten property is really unsettling to me. The Tunes have never been forgotten the notion that they ARE forgotten bothers me so much, regardless if it's a plot point for the film. The Looney Tunes are some of the most recognizable faces in ask of media, and I get this is supposed to be a "New School vs Old School" message like with the Father vs Son but my God I do not like how this protrays the Tunes.

Speaking of the rejects, let's talk about AL G Rythm.

My God this is the most uninteresting villain and his whole plan is so easy to spot from the start of the film. "Oh look at me, I have a bruised ego cause I feel unappreciated in my time and im gonna project my issues on this kid I cyberstalked while praying KING JAMES would bless me with his support." Holy shit my guy you have a bigger ego than Tony Stark and its more bruised than Bruce Wayne's back after Bane was finished. He is one of the most bland villains I've seen in awhile, and the Goon Squad is no better. The Goon Squad is nothing but cool designs and a refderence to more popular Basketball players (and yeah they're supposed to be cronies but at least make them cronies with personality; the Nerdlucks were funny, had personality, and were an integral part of the story (also the fact that they ACTUALLY HAD THE NERDLUCKS CAMEO in in film but they were rooting against the Tunes just... Ehhhhhhhhhh) And the Goon Squad was boring and didn't add anything say for AL G. stealing the kids algorithm to make his own team.

Also sidenote, them constantly calling him "King James" got really annoying really fast. Like we get you gave yourself that nickname, you're the current too NBA player rn and all that but you don't have to keep saying it my God.

Now what did I actually like about this film. Well quite a bit actually.

For starters, the animation was top notch and everything looked great. I thought the 2D models were a little odd at first (too shiny compared to the faded sleek of the original) but they grew on me. All the CGI models of the Tunes looked really great, say for Sam who just looked really weird to me (probably cause he loses his hat by the end and a CGI Yosemeti Sam without a hat just looks strange)

The Tunes also felt exactly how they should in a Space Jam film, Bugs especially. Yes Daffy was his usual comedic self and I like how they had him try and be the manager of the team instead of a player, and every other Tune was just as zany as usual; honestly of all the Tunes I'm genuinely impressed with how they treated Bugs (till the end)

Bugs was the most interesting to see in the film, wherein every character left Tune World except Bugs and he kinda became this Castaway parody (with his own makeshift Porky Pig dummy) and he was just really lonely and stayed true to the Looney Way and he just wants his family back. That entire subplot is the most interesting part of this film hands down; the only thing about Bugs's arc I didn't like was the end which was predictable, but i was still more invested in Bugs's arc than anyone else's.

Also when they showed the Tunes on the other WB worlds in the Warnerverse that's not the name ik but it's basically the Warnerverse the only Movie refferences that i thought were clever were Mad Max, Austin Powers, and Themyscira. And as much as it pains me to admit it the Rick and Morty Gag with Taz was probably the funniest of them, and I don't even like Rick and Morty anymore.

The Matrix was just eh, Yosemite Sam just didn't land, Game of Thrones was just not funny and I won't apologize. As far as the cameos/refferences in the end I'll say it again, I wanted to watch the movies and shows that cameod more than the film itself. I'm not gonna try to list them off but some highlights were seeing Gremlins, the Mask, every Tim Burton Batman villain/Adam West Batman, Thundercats, and Scooby Doo. Aside from that this was all just one big add for Warner Bros.

So I'm gonna try end this on a note that I know alot of people are gonna bring up or use to say shouldn't be brought up: Nostalgia.

Listen. This film has the same issue that alot of modern film reboots tend to have, which is the fact that it has to match the same hype as the film that came before it.

Now I'd like to say that this isn't gonna be a Power Point on reboots, God knows this is long enough as is, but the issue with alot of reboots is that they try to remake something that more often than not did the media justice the first time around. Robocop, Nightmare on Elm Street, Ghostbusters 2016, litterally every Disney L.A Remake. This isn't to say these films can't be good, or even surpass their predecessors. But more often than not they tend to miss the mark either just barely or drastically.

And here's the thing, this argument can also apply to sequel films that are following up an iconic film that for fhe most part is still very prominent in modern media.

Space Jam has, for better or for worse, remained one of the most iconic films every made, if not for its premise alone. And when they announced a sequel it was only inevitable that people compare it to the original because, let's face it, we want the new film to live up to the original.

We want this new shiny film to live up to the film we all knew growing up as kids and adults, seeing the Tunes on a basketball court for the first time back in the 90s. And frankly, this film did not do that for me.

This film, to me, wants to be what Space Jam already is. But it felt the need to try and thats the first step it failed; it wanted to be hip and aware and make loads of refferences to the original

This film has a similar issue to Ghostbusters:Answer the Call I think, where in it wants to stand on its own two feet, but jt cant help but constantly remind us of a much superior film. We know they've done this before you don't have to keep saying it "We need help with a basketball game Lola!" Been there! Done that!" "So you want me to help you win a high stakes basketball game? One that could very well decide both our fates? Hmmmmm where have I seen that before?"

This film is like that one kid in class who already proved he was right, and is still trying to prove he was right.

If you think this film is great and you enjoy it just as much as the original that's perfectly fine, I'm not gonna try to overshadow your opinions, I just want to share mine.

In the end, I'm gonna rate this film a solid 4/10 (and most of that 4 is the comedy and the animation and the Tunes themselves.) Can you watch this just for the Tunes? Absolutely. Can you like this film more than me? Also absolutely. Do I think this film would've been worth it if I'd have seen it in theaters? No not at all I'm glad I waited for HBO Max.
