Hii! Hope you're doing great.
Can you do dorm leaders of twisted wonderland with a mute or blind reader? ( male reader)
It's okay if not and thanks! (āæāā”ā)
This is a very fun one to do cuz I love to see disability rep in fanfics (especially as a disabled person!) I hope you donāt mind that I did deaf and blind!

Riddle:ļæ½ļæ½
he just thinks youāre ignoring him at first when he yells at you to go to specific areas you donāt know, which leads to many instances of the collar being put on youĀ
He gets curious when he sees deuce leading you around everywhereĀ
Started to get suspicious when he found out you do all your essays and readings through the computer
Yeah heās not the type to figure out you are blind on his own
Finally comes to a head as youāre painting the roses, he comes behind you and goes āNO THOSE ARE BLUE NOT RED! WHAT, ARE YOU BLIND OR SOMETHING?āĀ
Awkward silence begins and it finally clicksĀ
Poor boy is apologetic beyond belief and will do anything in his power to make up for it
Goes out of his way to make sure every single corner in the heartslabyul form has a cushion against it so you wonāt hurt yourselfĀ
āIām so sorry (name) I promise I didnāt know. Please, if thereās any way we can accommodate you more, let myself or Trey know!ā

Leona:
at first, he sees you as weak, an easy target
Until he tries to sneak up on you and get an elbow straight to the gut
He can tell right away that you donāt let being blind hold you back and DAMN does he respect it
Jack is given the duty of being your eyes, seeing as you have numeral classes together and are both freshmen
He adds a detail to spelldrive so you can play, making it so the disc beeps when itās close to you so you can catch itĀ
He will never admit that his instincts are telling him to take the small weak cub under his wing
āLook, in this dorm itās survival of the fittest. If youāve spent this long at NRC without being taken out by a dumbass, you got what it takes to be part of the dormā

Azul:
because of the Sea Witch stories, it became mandatory for all merfolk to learn some version of sign language
He can easily spot you are deaf and tries to strike up a deal first, only he mixes it up in his mind and signs ādateā insteadĀ
Both of you are blushing messes but why not?Ā
You help to properly teach him and the tweels proper sign language and in return you now have 3 powerful and influential men there to protect you at any timeĀ
āI must ask, do you think it would be a fruitful venture to hold a paid for sign language class? Of course the proceeds would go to a charity! That charity being getting you those hearing aids youāve been wantingā

Kalim:
Is very confused as you donāt seem to hear him at all, making him practically yell
Jamil has to be the one to tell him that you could just be deaf
This mans is FLUENT in sign and will have the best gossip to tell you that only you two can hearĀ
Jamil is happy cuz it keeps him out of trouble and keeps the dorm quiet
Until Kalim realizes he can raise the music so you can feel the bassĀ
āIsnāt this awesome! I knew youād love this song! Everyone deserves the chance to party in Scarabia!ā

Vil:
he has worked with plenty of people so itās no surprise he knows how to signĀ
During the SDC, he makes sure you have a seat closest to the speakers so you can feel the vibrations the bestĀ
Offers several times to make you a hearing potion but accepts that it is a part of you that you wish to keepĀ
ASL is now mandatory to learn in the Pomefiore dorm (with permission from Crowley who sees this as an opportunity to show how inclusive his school is)
ā(Name) how does this seat work for you? Is it close enough to the speaker? Or would you rather have an interpreter? Just let me know potatoā

Idia:
it makes him feel so relaxed to know you canāt see him
You enjoy video games AND you canāt clock his looks? Hell yes
Heās ringing up STYX right away to sent a Cerberus unit as a guide dog for youĀ
If you are up to it, he would love to make cyber eyes for you to give you sight back
Gets super excited hanging out with you and lets himself be himself because in his eyes you canāt see him so you donāt judge himĀ
ā-and yeah! He should be all set up for your fingerprint id! If any problems happen, like normies trying to get in your way, he has an op defense modeā
Malleus:
by FAR the most protective of you
Since you canāt see, he worries others will take advantage of that and he is NOT having that
He is your person guard dragon and will follow you around everywhereĀ Ā
Has set up his nest in Diasomnia (because I like the idea that he keeps dragon instincts like nesting and hoarding) to include a tactile pathway to both the bathroom and door so you have more sense of freedom
If he canāt guard you, Lilia will. Lilia is a lot more ferocious in his guarding as he had blind soldiers when he was a general
āChild of man, if you need anything, money is no problem. I could get you set up with working eyes if you would like. But if you prefer how you are, thatās alright tooā

Hii!! I was thinking about buck and the concept of home and his different romantic relationships with it cause i realized with buck asking tmmy to live together they established a patern that was already there of course but well, this being the last one and having this patern aswell, it settles it in my mind. We know it was there with abby obviously he moved into her house, then with ali she helped him look for the loft and was supposed to stay there when she was in the city, then taylor where they try to move in together then well everything we know that follows, the couch of it all etc and then natalia where nothing is talked about it in that sense but well him saying lets pick a couch together was pretty much also an implication. Im sorry if you talked about this before but yes i was thinking about this because FICS lol and the connection eddie already has through all of bucks relationships ("this is eddies house im not really a guest") and the potential it could have in the future if they decide to make a direct parallel to abby. Feel free to just send me a link if youve already talked about it. And as always thank you for your insight š
Hi darling. I don't think I talked about this all that recently, and if I did I mostly talked about it in the sense that the loft is a symbol of Buck's failed relationships and that I would like it if Buck made the choice to move on his own the last time someone was talking about the loft burning down lol. But yeah, Buck asking Tommy to move in solidified the way Buck jumps because he's scared. It's not something discussed, it's a reaction to something else, I guess with Ali not that much but he did get the place with her in mind and I would assume she decorated it too, that being her job and all. But asking Taylor to move in to trap her with him, asking Tommy to move in because he's insecure, even the couch with Natalia probably would've been explored a bit further if she had stuck around (I will never let go of the conspiracy theory that the Marisol moving in plot was a bucktalia plot they repurposed). The Abby of it all is interesting because he "accidentally" moves in, he is helping her with her mom's death and ends up lingering, so it isn't a conscious choice, it was Buck being all in. And it's interesting that his reaction to feeling insecure in his relationships is that all in movement, because it didn't work before, but he still acts as if making things that serious will make them love.
I am extremely curious about the loft when talking about Buck from now on. Because with the loft being the place Buck's relationships begin and end, the symbolism in the way Ali showed she couldn't handle who he is in there, and Taylor and Tommy kissing him and the respective breakup also happening there, Natalia leaving the dinner date. The choice is not really Buck's. And they use the loft in a very purposeful way on a meta level, even tho there are no walls, there is an obvious divide in the spaces, like the way kitchen, I would say the sides and back of the counter is the space he's comfortable, and it's a space for family, we only see Maddie, Chris, Jee, Eddie, and I think Hen in that space, and the times we see Taylor in it the scene goes south real quick, like when Buck decides she's breaking up with him in 509 and when he tells her about the cheating in 513. The dining room, I would assign the front of the counter and the space with the table, has a lot of more emotionally charged moments but it's a less serious space, it's where Buck keeps most people. The space under the loft is made "for guests" by his mother and it really isn't a space we see Buck a lot in while in a casual mood. The stairs are for uncomfortable truths, like 316 when he's talking about being left behind or when he's waiting for Taylor for the breakup in 518. I'm getting side tracked lol, but the way we now have 3 breakups happening in there is making me eye it. Because the loft is not home, we don't interpret the loft as home. Even going back to 218 when he gets it and the joke Ali makes that he's a "perpetual roommate even in his own place".
And on the other side, we have Eddie's house, "this is Eddie's house, I'm not really a guest", a very interesting line considering at that point we hadn't seen Buck in the house alone, the hangouts we witness are all in the loft, I'm pretty sure the first time we see Buck in the house alone with Eddie and Chris is 403, because 310 has Hen and Denny and 311 is a party, but Buck has a key to the house, we see him in the house when Eddie isn't there, 612 makes a point of showing Buck uncomfortable in his own house just to fall asleep at Eddie's in seconds. He panics and shows up at Eddie's door. So if the speculation is right and Buck ends up at the house after Eddie leaves for Texas it could have some fun connotations for what it means for Buck. Because we did lowkey establish that Buck forces connection by moving in together because "why be apart when they could be together" as if the constant presence is gonna make him feel better, will make the house feel more like home. So what would it mean for him to end up at Eddie's if Eddie isn't there? Would that lead him to the realization that home isn't the house, it is Eddie and Chris and he doesn't need to force that connection? Would it add up to the way he clung to Abby's place because he liked the way she made him feel even though she left him and the house wasn't that anymore? And will that lead to a revelation when Eddie comes back because Abby never did? I don't know if this makes a lot of sense, but let's just say that they used Tommy to solidify most of Buck's bad habits, and one of those is the loft of it all, so something about Buck choosing to leave because he hates that Eddie isn't around anymore and he wants to find him somewhere makes sense to me.
Obviously, there's also the chance of Eddie showing up to the loft and helping change the meaning of it too, but I just have a feeling the houses and the definition of home will play a part in whatever is unfolding.

hi there! im coming from your post on mutsumiās DID in ave mujica, and i saw the point you made about implications of sh regarding sakiko, which i was curious about. i donāt disagree with the idea, but i was wondering where you found those implications?
Hi!
So yeah beyond the specific mindset Sakiko displays and her revisiting important parts of her life just before the Crychic thing happens there are a few clues that can be interpreted that way.
Now, mind you this specifically is from a narrative writing standpoint and is not as applicable to real life because the real life version of this topic is far too complex and sensitive to handle here.
This specifically mentions narrative beats that could be used as indicating a characterization of a single character and the way she interacts with the worldāand how the narrative expects us to parse those clues when interpreting the said character's motives.
The topic below is highly sensitive and might be triggering to people affected by it.
The first bigger clue is the book we see Sakiko read for a split second
From the cover art it's easy to figure out that she is reading "Kokoro" by Natsume Soseki.
The book is essentially multiple interconnected character journeys through solitude and trauma as they are either being affected by sh in their life or considering it as a form of escapism from traumatic experiences and self loathing.
The book also has multiple narrative parallels between Sensei and Sakiko and how they handle trauma, their instinct to alienate themselves from others, etc.
There's actually a pretty apt quote from.the book that nails Sakiko as a character:
"His curt and cold ways were not designed to express his dislike of me, but they were meant rather as a warning to me that I would not want him as a friend. It was because he despised himself that he refused to accept openheartedly the intimacy of others."
The character in question also notably wrestles with the thought that his existence spread misery to others.
This ties to The second narrative clue which is, as I mentioned before, the character mindset. We see it in her stairway freakout where her train of thought is essentially this:


"If I wasn't here."
Now the last clue is a bit flimsy but like I said all of these are from purely narrative standpoint and the actual topic of sh is far more complex than fiction often can handle which is why I personally wouldn't ever dare to use it as a topic if I were to write a story.
The third clue is the wording Sakiko picks in her messages and letter to Uika and the way it matches wording that might be used in a very different kind of letter.


Actually reading the messages really helps to understand why Uika is so freaked out.
There are actually other indicators in the way Sakiko has been written but as far as recent episodes go these are the most overt.
Now will that get used somehow in the narrative? Who knows, but there's certainly enough clues in her characterization and I'm narrative writing that Sakiko does have a mindset like that and at the very least grapples with self hate which so far now manifests in her actively sacrificing her own time and wellbeing to help Mutsumi.
Which we all know is not going to work out.

Do you have hcs about the relationship experience of SS and the Marauders?
Yes, I have my ideas.
People usually go for the virgin Severus take or the so devoted to Lily that he never had anything with anyone take, but I think we can interpret Voldemortās words as implying that, while he might not have had actual relationships, he at least had some flings. Meaning that, within the Death Eater circle, he was probably encouraged to have affairs with pure-blood women. In fact, I have this personal headcanon that Narcissa used to introduce him to girls, but thatās just my own thing.
Strictly based on canon, I think he did have some casual encounters here and there. When he left Hogwarts, I believe he would have experimented like any young person his age, especially in an environment where things were probably happening. I donāt think he ever had anything serious or a stable relationship, and once Voldemort returned, I imagine he was too stressed, anxious, and overworked to even think about blowing off some steam. But before that? Yeah, why not. I also donāt see him as someone who did it often, but I do think that when he had the need or felt like it, he found ways to get it out of his system, like most people do. No big deal.
James was a virgin until he was with Lily. Classic teenage relationship where they lose it together, and thatās it, nothing more to analyze there.
Remus probably didnāt have any relationships until after Hogwarts, and even then, I doubt they were very successful. He gives off that nice guy vibe: seems super sweet, really kind, but then he gets you pregnant and bolts, you know? I think he probably tried to have things with people, but his self-hatred and low self-esteem always got in the way. Plus, with the whole lycanthropy issue and his constant fear of someone finding out, he likely considered long-term relationships too risky.
Sirius is always portrayed as the guy who probably slept with half the school because itās clear he was very popular with girls and incredibly handsomeāsomething Rowling reminds us of multiple times so we never forget. But I believe Sirius had a massive crush on James, even if he didnāt realize it himself and just saw it as brotherly attachment. I think it wasnāt until James started dating Lily and that codependency was brokenāsince James now had a relationship and was focusing on thatāthat Sirius even started looking elsewhere. What I am certain of is that once they left Hogwarts, he probably slept with as many people as he could, indiscriminately. He was totally the type to always hook up with someone at parties. In fact, I wouldnāt be surprised if, during his months on the run, when Harry sees him looking better (and with short hairāletās remember that when Sirius is doing well, he has short hair), those were periods when he was also having some casual encounters. Because, come on, 12 years in Azkabanāthatās a long time.
I donāt think Peter had much going on. Maybe some flings after leaving school, but nothing serious.
Overall, except for James (for obvious reasons), I donāt see any of them having stable relationships. They had just left school when a war started, and then life got complicated for all of them, each in their own way. They werenāt exactly in the best position to settle down, even in relationships that wouldnāt have led anywhere. If that makes sense.

Chinning
Jax x Reader
Summary: You and your friends tried to hang out, but it was quickly interrupted by Jax, who decides to exhibit some unusual affection towards you.
CW: None
TW: None
AN: This is based on a headcanon of mine that I've been seeing other people have as well. For those that don't know, chinning is what rabbits do as a form of claiming territory and belongings. Still, this story may be interpreted as either romantic or platonic.
~~~~~~~~~~
You had gotten close to Jax over the course of several months. He was...an $!?hole, yes, but he still looked out for you in his own way. That way usually involved playing around with you and standing close, giving the others threatening glares.
He was surprisingly touchy with you compared to the others and usually went out of his way to give you shoulder nudges or hair ruffles. You didn't mind. He could be a little rough at times, but he generally kept it at friendly touches.
You glanced at the clock in the common area. Ugh. It was still broken. The minute hand just spun around in a rapid circle. You flopped on the couch and put an arm over your face. So boooorrredddd. You rolled onto your belly and buried your face in your arms. Maybe a nap would make the time pass faster.
You dozed a bit before feeling a weight on either side of you. You looked up and turns your head to look up and behind yourself. Pomni, Gangle, and Ragatha had joined you and were sitting at your head and feet.
"Hey, Y/N. Mind if we join you?" Ragatha asked.
You shook your head with a stretch and yawn. "Of course not," you said sleepily. "Could always use some company." You shifted so your friends could get more comfortable. Gangle, who sat at your head, absentmindedly played with your hair. You closed your eyes with a little sigh.
You yelped as a weight fell heavily on top of you. You heard Ragatha yell out, "Jax!" Of course. Of course. Of course. You looked up to see the rabbit sitting on your back with his hands propping his head up. He looked down at you with a smug smirk.
"What's up, doc?" he teased. You rolled your eyes.
"You're heavy," you protested. He just shrugged and wiggled to get more comfortable.
"That's rough."
Gangle raised a ribbony hand nervously. "Um. Jax? I think you're hurting the- ACK!" The rabbit shoved the girl off the couch by the face, causing her to land on the floor and break her mask.
"JAX!" Ragatha yelled.
The bunny raised his hands innocently. "Whaaat? She started it," he said with a grin. The doll glared at him. The most evil glare you had ever seen. It looks could kill, Jax would've imploded by now. And he seemed to know that.
"Jeez..." he mumbled. He got up off of you with a grumpy pout. "I'm going, I'm going. Whiny."
You stretched when the bastard was fully off of you and then set your face back in your arms. After a second, you felt something warm nuzzle against your head. You looked up in confusion. "Wha-?"
Jax. It was him. Of course it was. But he was...oddly affectionate? He was nuzzling his cheek and chin against your forehead. You flushed red.
"J-Jax?" you stuttered. "What're you- what're you doing??" You pulled away a little.
The rabbit stood up. He scratched the back of his head. "Oh, don't complain. It's just a nuzzle. See ya." He turned and walked away, waving without looking back at you. You blinked in confusion and rubbed your forehead with the back of your hand.
Pomni patted your head. "You ok? That was...weird," she said slowly. You nodded. "Oh, yeah. Fine. Just...confused. Think I should go check on him...?" He never did anything like that. You tried showing him affection outside of friendly nudges, but he always just whined and wriggled away.
Ragatha scoffed and rolled her one non-button eye. "You kidding? He probably just did that to freak everyone out," she grumbled.
You sat up and looked down at your lap. "I know...But still. He doesn't usually act like that. He's too...defensive. His walls are too thick."
Pomni and Gangle looked between each other and then back at you. "You know how he thinks. Go talk to him," the jester agreed. Ragatha gave your arm a squeeze and then hugged you.
"Don't let him bully you, alright?" she muttered.
You smiled and nodded, hugging her back. "I won't. I'll smack him upside the head. I promise."
You got up and jogged along to the direction Jax went. It looked like he went down to his room, so you headed there. You knocked on the door and squealed. You were immediately scooped up by a flurry of purple fur.
"You're back!" Jax hugged you close and closed the door, carrying you to the bed. He tossed you onto it playfully and pounced on you. You squealed in surprise.
"Jax!" you protested. "What're you-?!" You paused when you saw his tail wagging rapidly. Ohhh. So he wanted to play. You grinned at him. "So we're playing it that way, huh?"
He pushed you encouragingly. You pounced on him in return and wrestled with him playfully. He growled and pinned your shoulders down.
"Wow. You're weak," he mocked. You rolled your eyes.
"It's almost Ike you're stronger than me. And always have been," you said sarcastically.
"&$!? yeah, I am." He leaned down and nuzzled his cheek and chin against your face. You spluttered and giggled a little.
"Hey! What're you doing, weirdo?!" You pushed at his face halfheartedly. He just purred softly and nuzzled you more. He let you go and flopped down on his side, resting his face up under your chin.
You smiled at his now peaceful demeanor. You scratched between his ears gently. He adjusted his head so you scritched the base of his ear. As you did, he purred and twitched a little in contentment.
You grabbed the tv remote and turned it on a random show. Jax peeked up from your shoulder to looked at the screen.
You were gonna have to do more research in rabbit behavior.

I find it so interesting that we don't have much Akane info on the new TL!! Makes lot of room for personal interpretations!
Akane and Aoi were definitely still in touch in this new TL but their relationship must've been veryyyy different without the whole confession/rejection and constantly-tip-toeing-the-line-between-ambiguous-and-romantic-relationship dynamic going on.
First of all, Aoi really changed in this world from the changes it indirectely induced in her life : being Teru's acquaintance and having the "engaged" status made her way more..let's say open? Sincere? A lot less well-guarded! She doesn't seem to have as much weigh on her shoulders and yknow she's just more honest!



She just seem overall more willing to express her emotions instead of hiding them! And more straightforward (through this whole new TL arc).
Then, we have a probably very big change in Akane's attitude towards Aoi. With her engaged status, she isn't "available" anymore and he surely didn't do all the "courting" he did in the original TL, not when she is bound to be with someone else (maybe he did when it just started but must've stopped way before the current point in the story). Aoi probably didn't really indulge him either : she had to make her mother happy after her dad left, she couldn't afford to let her down, couldn't let her feelings make the act break.
Then, Akane's public display of affection is probably gone too since Aoi and Teru have to keep up the appearances of a happy couple at school- him interfering too much would create rumors and stuff.
So yeah no constant affirmations of his undying love, no confessions, no rejections either. Just...feelings that are definitely there for each other from what we've seen of Aoi's POV but cannot be acted upon.

No Akane constantly rebuilding himself around her either tho. With that gone, he probably acted more like his "usual" self (the blunt, still intense Akane) around her then. Just his casual personality. (Makes me wonder how he joined the student council in this timeline! Probably not to make Aoi swoon for him this time? What else could there be tho..)
So to me, new TL Akane and Aoi would have a bit more distant relationship, but with much more.."themselves"(?) behaviour around each other than in original TL (not to say they weren't already but..I can't quite pinpoint the word I'm looking for haha. I see their relationship as much less sweet and soft and more of a down to earth one. More toned-down romantic than romantic romantic).
I like to think they used to hangout really often when they were kids, playing in parks like in that one flashback from Aoi, talking to each other through the balcony and meeting at houses...At the start of the engagement Akane was maybe angry? He tried to find some solution to break it off and used to drag Aoi into secret meetings and plans work-throughs to get her out of it. Aoi would think with him, watch him work, smile with him and let him hope, while knowing in the back of her mind that he didn't stand any chance. Inevitably, they grew apart by the years, still longing for each other and wanting something ,but knowing they couldn't have it. This time, they weren't meant to be, or maybe they were, but the ropes fate tied to their hands made shoulders brush and touches linger but forbid them from getting anything more. Anything they wanted.
I like to think that they both are salty about the situation and occasionally take jabs at each other when they feel particularly frustrated. That there's an omnipresent tension between them whenever they interact. There's that acknowledgment of their feelings for each other they both know are there but well that goes unsaid cause what can they do about it anyway?
Sometimes they let their sadness show. They let the other see how much they wished for better circumstances. They're silently confort each other, they act close and let themselves dream a little... And then back to square zero, up again is the wall that separates them, the wall that doesn't let him tell her, the wall that doesn't let her tell him, but is cruel enough to let them dig through it and hang on to that hope. Maybe one day, he thinks; at least one day..she whispers, as they silently dig and dig and pierce holes in that thick, thick wall, never big enough to go through, never small enough to ignore. Two fools dreaming about what could've been, hands bloodied and bruised and dirty but with a miniscule dent to the other side and that's enough to make them continue. Cause they're too stubborn to let go.
So, when they come across each other they exchange proper greetings, they talk politely and if chapped fingernails and poorly masked cuts are seen, that goes unsaid.
Sometimes, they let themselves indulge. Because in reality, they're as much builders as they're diggers . And this old construction of theirs isn't as thick as they like to pretend. It isn't thick enough to stop their heart from aching. Never thin enough to make them give up on it. Too much to stop them from digging into. Built on the most unsteady grounds , it is bound to crumble again and again and again. And foolish as they are, they let themselves dream a little before putting the bricks back on. Truly, what were they if not dreamers?
And so, they drop the act. It not like they were ever acting anyway : never did they try to deny what they had for each other; they just had to tone it down cause what else but problems would that bring if they didn't?
She calls him "Kane" and he calls her "Ao", the nicknames a mockery of their situation, their actual status that will never be more than "Akane-kun" and "Aoi-san" , their linked fingers a bitter joke and the couple on that big screen dry, cruel, irony of the worst kind.
Still. They let their hands squeeze tighter together, their knees brush gently on the sofa. She doesn't acknowledge it. He doesn't either. And like countless times before, he almost leans in and closes the gap, weren't he wasn't painfully aware of the singular bell displayed on her neck, hauntingly - almost supernaturally glowy, matching with a bracelet he definitely didn't want to think about, especially now.
He leans back and he's sure she caught him. And just like every other time, she turns doesn't say a word, caught up in her thoughts. Just like every other time, he saw a glint in her eyes when he got closer that seemed to yell "Will you do it this time, coward?". And he just knows his own coppers mirrored this. Will I do it this time? That was a funny question, because it was pointless. Because he knows he won't. He wants to - to break that damn line they set up in the sand ever since her mother started requesting for them to see each other less. He wants to let her do what she wants, walk off of that road they built for her. Heck- he wants to be selfish for once. But he knows that he will regret it in the end because what would this do but hurt them? Getting a glimpse of freedom made the ache hurt more and he couldn't bear causing her to be in pain. In the ends he just wants her to be happy.
" My, my, you can't do that to an engaged young-woman, 'Kane ā„" she said after some time. But there was no mischief in her tone and her eyes were oh so sad. It made his heart clench.
"...Right." he answered. I wish you didn't have to be, he wanted to add. He didn't.
...They were truly one of a pair, holding on to this ambiguous relationship for far longer than they should've when rings and shrines and electric blues were in the picure.
But when he looked at her, he knew he could never have it any other way.
Three words hanged heavy on his tongue. He found it hard to let them out, but it was no surprise : ever since this engagement, he forbid himself from ever pronouncing them. He turned his gaze back on her.
I love you, he thought, as he picked a brick back up.
Ahh doomed Aoiaoi I love you..

Wish I were OG TL Terry rn to know more about them..
Trying to get new timeline info to write the fic and i'm dying i have NOTHING on new timeline Akane
I guess Akane becoming depressed/distressed about Aoi engagement happen in the New Timeline too?? Aoi at least doesn't seem surprised by it, just... sad.
She still calls him Akane-kun so they must have contact still?? So how do their convos go, it must be so awkward, save me. And where does Teru fit into all of this? i want to explode-
#tbhk#what possessed me omg#why did I start writing something midway#Please don't mind me just my mind making me yap#3 AM thoughts yknow#lowkey doesn't have anything to do with the og post anymore#I don't even know if that's how I want to think of their new TL relationship#Just posting it cuz I wrote it for like an hour#I do find them being doomed yearners that can't give up cool tho#Some colder interactions with each other and more tension!!#About Teru...I bet Akane still has some kind of rivalry going on with him#I mean he's still in the stud.council and Teru being engaged to Aoi and all#I like to think they're more like casual friends than whatever they are in OG#Casual āfriendsā with some anemosity on Akane's end! (And Teru knows Aoi likes Aoi so he teases)#He can't help but be really interested in them#minamoto treu#akane aoi#aoi akane#late night thoughts#yapping

what if the world supported a kinder framework where listening well was important before the doing of things?

Today (which will be days ago by the time this posts) was one for long stretches of s o l i t u d e to recharge. As often happens on these days, I went down some rabbit holes. Found this unassuming interview of Ben from Dec 2022 and found it encouraging, particularly from 9:00 minutes to 15:00 (the end).
In these last few months before the next US Presidential election, I am choosing to focus on, invest in, imagine, hold space for envisioning how it will be to have a female President. Not that everything will be All Better Now (it wonāt be, not hardly), h o w e v e r, it WILL be different!
And, I for one, am ready for different.
#women talking#sarah polley#love learning more + more about the collaborative + emotionally safe container she created for this film#ben whishaw#acknowledging later on in the interview how the set was decidedly different because it was primarily female actors + creative staff#yeah yeah yeah i know this could get interpreted in A Way#however#i donāt believe respect for compassion + kindness + listening is gender specific e x a c t l yā¦#ā¦itās that many public men in our current world do not exhibit the capacity willingness or ability to live in this way#gender is a social construct

My page for @sheikahzine; about Impaz's duty to her village, empty of people and full of memories.
[id in alt text]
#legend of zelda#loz#twilight princess#loz tp#i'm still reeling that someone sent me an ask about this one.. that they took the time to find my tumblr and tell me they liked it#it really meant a lot; thank you to anyone that stops to leave comments like that. they make me happy#but yeah! here's the usual symbolism ramble:#i thought it'd be cool to have the 'spirits' flowing one way and the cats walking through them the other way#to kinda show the difference in life inhabiting the village in the past and present#link's face is covered because impaz was just waiting for 'the hero' so his clothes are what matters; not his face#and it (hopefully) gives a surreal and intangible sense to 'the hero' she could only hope would actually show up#you can feel free to interpret the glowy blue sheikah as ghosts or just as memories of the past! i couldn't decide either way#the one on the bottom left is oot impa since she's implied to be the village founder. so i guess she would be a ghost actually?#fan art#my art#project stuff#and ahhh the book-- everyone's stuff is so beautiful!!#especially the writing. some of the fics made me really tear up and some were so fun and clever. i really love them#a lot of them captured the sheer burden of the role of the sheikah; all of the time and grief and doubt#i know i always say this stuff about every project but. the people i get to work with in these are truly so skilled every time

song about something you'll never be forgiven for. beepbox link here, and a singalong under the read more :''-)
starting point "ā¦so don't look back" i took your hand and led you astray into the light i fear i might have made a fatal mistake walk in a straight line walk in a straight line i couldn't ask i only hope that sinners are saved but in all honesty, my honor keeps me somewhat afraid walk in a straight line don't dare look behind ā«ā«ā« i had a dream we tried to reach the finishing line but in the silence still the time we killed had come back to life walk in a straight line walk in a straight line the signs had merged into a single "end of the world" where every undead thing was damned to sing "esrever ni gnos a" walk in a straight line ā¦tell me that you're fine ā«ā«ā« walk in a straight line (walk in a straight line) don't dare look behind (don't dare look behind) tell me that you're fine (something that had died) you're still breathing right? (are you satisfied?) walk between the lines (how to save a life) don't dare look behind (change the ending line) reach the end this time (tell a little lie) bring me back to lifeā¦ ā«ā«ā« if i'd look back and held the hands that led me astray into the light i'd proudly cry "this is my final mistake" walk with me this time walk with me this time i should have asked i know the answer's somewhat clichĆ© but was it worth the price and worth the pain? you're fading awayā walk with me this time bring me back to lifeā¦ if i'd look backā¦ if i'd look backā¦ if i'd look backā¦ if i'd look backā¦ if i'd look backā¦ if you'd look--
#i've been sitting on this song for a while now... i really wanted to make a video for it but it's late and i can't afford to stay up#for much longer. and i know if i leave this for tomorrow it won't get finished until like. 839482394 months later.#i'm just glad i was able to sketch something that i don't completely hate LOL#anyways.. many many thoughts and feelings poured into this one#i will say the primary thing that inspired it was killua & gon#and also yhk . They Looked Back#wish i could somehow concisely explain my thought process for the song's original meaning but its somewhat convoluted#i guess in essence it was motivated by the idea of ''what if orpheus really did somehow manage to Not look back?''#''isn't it more tragic that way? that he never looks back and just keeps walking?''#sniffles. yeah. shoutout to killua ''rip to orpheus but I'm Different'' zoldyck for that one#theres a lot of other different ways to interpret the song but that one's still one of my favorites...... lol#okay hugs and kisses and goodnight.... maybe one day i'll be able to make that video of mine. smiles#lalala#fishbowl

examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk
#BEGONE!!! *wizard beam blast leaving a black smoking crater in the middle of the tumblr dashboard*#I think another downside to everyone doing everything on phone apps on shitty tiny screens nowadays is the inability to really see details#of an image and thus its easier to share BLATANTLY fake things like.. even 'good' ai art has pretty obvious tells at this point#but especially MOST of it is not even 'good' and will have details that are clearly off or lines that dont make sense/uneven (like the imag#of a house interior and in the corner there's a cabinet and it has handles as if it has doors that open but there#are no actual doors visible. or both handles are slightly different shapes. So much stuff that looks 'normal' at first glance#but then you can clearly tell it's just added details with no intention or thought behind it. a pattern that starts and then just abruptly#doesn't go anywhere. etc. etc. )#the same thing with how YEARS ago when I followed more fashion type blogs on tumblr and 'colored hair' was a cool ''''New Thing''' instead#of being the norm now basically. and people would share photos of like ombre hair designs and stuff that were CLEARLY photoshop like#you could LITERally see the coloring outside of the lines. blurs of color that extend past the hair line to the rest of the image#or etc. But people would just share them regardless and comment like 'omg i wish I could do this to my hair!' or 'hair goallzzzz!! i#wonder what salon they went to !!' which would make me want to scream and correct them everytime ( i did not lol)#hhhhhhggh... literally view the image on anything close to a full sized screen and You Will SEe#I don't know why it's such a pet peeve of mine. I think just as always I'm obsessed with the reality and truth of things. most of the thing#that annoy me most about people are situations in which people are misinterpreting/misunderstanding how something works or having a misconc#eption about somehting thats easily provable as false or etc. etc. Even if it's harmless for some random woman on facebook to believe that#this AI generated image of a cat shaped coffee machine is actually a real product she could buy somewhere ... I still urgently#wish I could be like 'IT IS ALL AN ILLUSION. YOU SEE???? ITS NOT REALL!!!!! AAAAA' hjhjnj#Like those AI shoes that went around for a while with 1000000s of comments like 'omg LOVE these where can i get them!?' and it's like YOU#CANT!!! YOU CANT GET THEM!!! THEY DONT EXIST!!! THE EYELETS DONT EVEN LINE UP THE SHOES DONT EVEN#MATCH THE PATTERNS ARE GIBBERISH!! HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THEY ARE NOT REAL!??!!' *sobbing in the rain like in some drama movie*#Sorry I'm a pedantic hater who loves truth and accuracy of interpretation and collecting information lol#I think moreso the lacking of context? Like for example I find the enneagram interesting but I nearly ALWAYS preface any talking about it#with ''and I know this is not scientifically accurate it's just an interesting system humans invented to classify ourselve and our traits#and I find it sociologically fascinating the same way I find religion fascinating'. If someone presented personality typing information wit#out that sort of context or was purporting that enneagram types are like 100% solid scientific truth and people should be classified by the#unquestionaingly in daily life or something then.. yeah fuck that. If these images had like disclaimers BIG in the image description somewh#re like 'this is not a real thing it's just an AI generated image I made up' then fine. I still largely disagree with the ethics behind AI#art but at least it's informed. It's the fact that people just post images w/o context or beleive a falsehood about it.. then its aAAAAAA

do i believe eddie brock is homosexual or even really into men. no. to be honest. however is he gay for that alien. one hundred fucking percent and it's canonical too
#at LEAST one time he has used he/him pronouns for the symbiote#and they are in love mike costa said so. that's his love. his darling.#so. man. hashtag homosexuality. gay stuff happening in there. can't attest to what's going on exactly but i know it's queer#eddie brock is into women and is also in a deep committed relationship with that slime from space#and when the space slime is around he really barely even looks at women. and the slime gets kinda peeved when he does#was gonna say 'looks at other women'. and you know what. yeah. when he looks at other women. except the symbiote is not a girl#my take on the symbiote is that it has No indentification with the human concept of gender. like i think it Gets it. it's picked it up#from living on earth all this time and seeing into people's heads. but it's like. not human.#same with curse words. it doesn't cuss usually. it knows the words and it could use them if it wants. but it doesn't really want#however. DISTINCT from that. i think the way that EDDIE BROCK sees/feels/interprets the symbiote is something more masculine#or at least more aligned with the male side of a gender binary.#partly because of self-identification with the thing that is literally a part of him. and partly cause he's gay for that thing#believer in. he/they/it symbiote. they/them for people who are speaking about it compassionately as if it's a being of its own.#it/its for people who do Not see it as its own person or whose perspective on it is heavily influenced by the fact that it's not human.#and he/him for eddie brock. for purposes not entirely clear to the rest of mankind but absolutely tied to something gay happening there#i have talked about the symbiote's pronouns so many times with so many people in different distinct conversations this week.#currently doing my job as the world's leading thinker on venom pronoun discourse (as in conversation and theorization. not argument)#venomposting#venom

What If Julius and Subaru both met when Julius was a commoner and Subaru got transported Sooner
fun stuff im sure !! but haah okay given julius was a kid when he was a commoner - yeah theyre both kids here!! not sure how old but definitely somewhere before the age of ten. and i think theyd be up to some shenanigans together im sure!! theyre both very mischevious kids (or from what little we know of little kid julius, given iirc tappei hasnt specified just How Much of a "delinquent" little kid julius is okay. but hes definitely the type to sneak out past curfew or something. stay up late reading too, probably. that sort of thing). and also subarus a kid and no way he ISNT missing home poor guy T^TT getting ripped away from home like that is bad enough at seventeen, getting ripped away from home when you are like. no more than eight or something is Bad. but luckily!! im assuming subaru gets found by the juukuliuses (julius's parents probably?) and thats how julius and subaru form their friendship / long-term yearning for each other (if you so desire that) (okay but no way subaru ISNT gonna form long-term yearning for julius flajsdlf). but yes i think julius and subaru would be silly happy kids together and julius's parents would be like oh no this other kid is so lost where is he from :(( but hes so loved by julius already too... well we got another kid under our roof now.
except. julius's parents die in a flood. so i mean. Hypothetically.... either julisuba survive this one first try or subaru dies for the first time. which. ohh god. oh god. oh g -
#IM. IM JUST GONNA LEAVE ON THAT OMINOUS NOTE#yeah so i think this would turn into childhood friends to Possibly Mutual Pining but actually it might not be mutual if you wanna interpret#reinjuli a certain way. but then but THEN later it can become mutual if u so want#like when u know a person for such a long period of time u change over time. u know?? both you and the relationship u have with this person#has its alterations over time!! thats just how it b but if youre meant to be together youll stick it out <3#julisuba in every universe they befriend each other for good is#Bound to be together for the rest of their lives. To Me. they are soulmates to Me okay their relationship is important#regardless of what form it takes!!! they could grow to think of each other like brothers in an au like this if u so desire too!! which i#think would be really touching <3#yeah so. julisuba childhood friends au. shit goes haywire sometimes. its really awful bc subarus a kid so u can imagine the kind of fucked#stuff hes learning rn hahaha. or you can go the happier route and subaru doesnt learn about rbd until later </3#either way. julisuba real. subarus an eldritch horror. these are both crucial facts for every timeline#i think julius would probs be a bit better having a companion by his side from the very beginning throughout all of this for sure!!#and someone who Gets the jealousy / do i want to be with him or Be him ;-;#i have a fondness for reinjulisuba (THE MESSIEST LOVE TRIANGLE YOUVE EVER SEEN)#and ok if subarus an eldritch horror since childhood then he and reinhard are gonna have Even More in common#hooray for childhood joys and traumas!!!!!#also julisuba visit julius's parents graves :(( leave nice flowers there im sure#subaru-joshua hostility begins also. that sort of thing#rezero#re:zero#ask#natsuki subaru#julius juukulius

omfg did you have any content on that post you just posted? the one about leo never shutting up until hes in real pain? because you are very much Correct for that one holy hell it gets me every time
[ cw: violence mention / self sacrifice implied / ]
No content, just something I thought upon when thinking of the movie (something that is on my mind so very often.)
Just, thinking of Leo, when heās separated from everyone and everything, being completely silent. Even being so horrifically beaten as he was, even being in a true nightmare scenario, he is silent in his suffering. Smiles through it, even.
At the moment where it would have been more than justified to make any noise, he stays silent.
#non au ask#violence mention /#self sacrifice /#I stg there are more instances of this in the actual series too but I canāt remember the actual details from the top of my head#Iāll have to do a rewatch someday#but yeah make no mistake heās still that joking boy thatās legitimately who he is as a person#but silence meets him like an old friend the way only a Leo would know#side note but I also think the theme of him and silence kinda ties in to how-#heās the best one at stealth plus the one whoās most likely to go off on his own#silence and isolation are two things that go hand in hand with his character#and what makes rise leo all the more interesting is how much he fights against that#his inclination toward talking and joking and his dependency on being with his brothers as a team works in tandem with his root nature#djjdjdj okay Iām getting pretentious now but I could write a lot about my personal interpretation of Leo as a character#(even though it 100% is prob me just looking too far into things lol but thatās the fun of fiction analysis huh)

One other detail that is interesting is that because the cosplays Shirogane uses have the V3 logo in the eyes if her cospox is real you can make the argument that Danganronpa 1 & 2 are real and the reason they don't activate her cospox is because she is cosplaying "fictional" characters/ocs that just so happen to look like and have the same name as them.
THIS ALSO WORKS I've thought about this before like! How much does she have to modify a real person's outfit before cospox doesn't activate?
The combo of info from the prologue and trial 6 makes v3's ending confusingly open ended, but I kinda like it that way.
#pluto answers#like Yeah I get Why people dont like the ending to an extent#(although I dont relate)#I also dont understand because there's so many ways you could interpret and go with it#You're not stuck on anything bad#you can take or leave so much of what tsumugi says#that the main problem i think a lot of people had (dr1/dr2 and also v3's cast being completely fictional) doesn't have to exist#not if you dont want it to#sorry i dont know what prompted this ghdjskfdsf

Was going to do some oni file digging but got too distracted playing the actual video game. Anyways look at her <3
#rat rambles#oni posting#her icon does not do her justice she is so fucking cute#I fucking adore her#anyways ny thoughts on the new dlc are mostly positive so far although I do have some nitpicks#now to be clear to the fellow lore enjoyers in chat this is a fairly log light dlc unfortunately#which doesnt suprise me since god knows they don't like talking abt dupes too directly in the logs and this dlc is all abt the bionic dupes#which I see as a positive thing generally but I do wish there was a smidgen bit more to justify why they can be printed now#just an extra my log at the start that says woah I found some fancy robo guys in my printing database would have been nice#but other than that I do like the continuing tensions between gravitas and the vexus institute brewing#and I also like the pronoun confirmation on jackie's probably mom I'm glad we're seeing more of her#Im also glad theyve so far had jackie say jack shit abt her probably mom and her going ons I hope it mostly stays that way#I'm open to getting some of jackies words on the family drama but I want it to be shown not told#so like idk. maybe a conversation between them or smth. and keep it vague and up to interpretation#I like my jackie characterization hard to find and unpack#as for the actual gamplay stuff Im definitely enjoying the different playstyle of the bionic dupes a lot so far#I havent gotten far enough into my test run to rly know how they feel in long term colonies but they are quite fun so far#I like how they add some pretty strong early game benefits while also adding a pretty important early research racing#I also enjoy their oxygen tanks but I have noticed that they tend to chose weird and sometimes extremely inconvenient places to refill#I don't think I rly understand their logic for chosing spots yet but I thinkkkk they might be trying to chose somewhere away from general#living areas? I could be wrong though I have seen them recharge directly by cots before but maybe its based on the pod location idk#but yeah this is me screaming at ulti to stop recharging by a tiny spec of oxygen surrounded by slimelung infested polluted oxygen#so basically sending them out to germy or unbreathable environments is theoretically safe most of the time but it's not as safe as a suit#that combined with their adverse reactions to liquid and extreme temperatures does still leave need for athmosuits#which is a good thing to be clear#in theory this also means that oxygen masks can still be of use to a bionic dupe even if it isnt necessary#especially if theyre making large transit that risks them running out of oxygen and trying to refill inside an contaminated area#but yeah if I had one complaint abt the bionic dupes it would be that I wish there were a few more#I get not wanting to bloat the dupe count but you can and will see duplicates within the early game#there isn't a lot of variety with them which makes bionic dupe heavy colonies feel less appealing to me

its really interesting to listen to covers of aimers song bc imo no one really captures the emotion she puts into her singing
#her singing is more hm#breathy? its strong but not powerful#i think?#and a lot of cover artists have strong powerful voices but at least the ones i listen to struggle to put that softer breathiness into their#interpretations#like you know?#admittedly i havent heard as many japanese covers usually i listen to english ones mostly for the transliteration interpretation#it could be a product of language#english doesnt really lend itself to softer tones#like you can hut youd have to really eat the hard T and D and other similar sounds to get that same softness#like enunciate less?#<- i am speaking out of my ass btw#like again im not saying you cant be soft in english like obviously you can people sing like that all the time#its just ive personally noticed that a lot of english singers like. enunciate so much? which like yeah you need to be clear in your singing#so people can actually hear and understand what youre saying but like. have you ever listened to musicals? the way the actors like land so#heavily on the T's and D's is wild like it starts making your music start feeling sanitized and like#as formal and proper english as can be#it doesnt lend itself to conveying emotions bc idk abt you but /i/ dont enunciate so hard#like im jot saying mumble but like. give some freedom to your words? let them flow together and stuff#like not to criticize random people on youtubes singing LMAO like i do like the covers dont get me wrong#but again i dont think ive ever seen someone capture the style or emotion that aimer does and it got me thinking#sometimes i listen to people sing and it gives me the same feeling i got when i lhear commercials on tv in spanish#like that is the most lifeless sanitized basic ass spanish ive ever heard like they are trying so hard to be neutral and it just ends up sou#sounding unnatural bc no one fucking talks like that like come one#idk what im talking abt now ANYWAYS#listen to aimer <3#michi tag
