#yes-I-exist-shutup ask

[rekikiri]

1. Rant to me about a book you absolutely hate!!!!!! (For the ask game)

ahhh I’m so glad you picked this one!! Thanks for the ask!

so I don’t have a lot of books I can think of that I hated but the first to come to mind that I hated (and finished) was She Drives Me Crazy by Kelly Quindlen (warning that this got super long so I’m doing a see more for it)

let me preface this that it is my opinion and if you like it that is totally fine!! also spoiler warning

okay for starters, fake dating is something I enjoy quite a bit! I really love fake dating, but I’m usually not a huge fan if it is to make someone else jealous tho which is a big part of Scottie’s motivation, so already off to a bad start.

Scottie is the main character here. Her and irene are supposedly enemies, but the events that make them hate each other are just not comparable to me. The reason Scottie hated Irene was LITERALLY A MISCOMMUNICATION. It would’ve been so quick and easy to clear it up but instead she hated Irene and was so mean to her (explained later)

There’s an incident at the start of the series where there’s a small car accident between the two and Irene needs her car repaired. Irene’s mom insisted that she had to pay for it, and to do so she would’ve likely need to quit cheer to get a job to cover it. So in the meantime, they’re carpooling. Scottie and her girlfriend had broken up not long before the book starts so Scottie offers to pay Irene $1000 to fake date her to make her ex jealous (which is just insane, you are 17 years old, a relationship is not worth it if you are needing to spend money to fake date a pretty girl to make her jealous). They only even broke up because her girlfriend was moved to another school haha not even out of STATE just a little bit away.

Scottie talks about Irene being mean but she really isn’t?? Like Scottie is so much meaner to Irene and is super judgmental.

Here are some examples of things scottie did to Irene (using a book review to confirm my info for this because I read this like 2+ years ago and it just has stuck with me so might be some slight inaccuracies)

1. Tells irene she is “too stupid” and that’s why she didn’t get into an AP class

2. Purposefully makes Irene spill her coffee on herself while driving her to school (then does the stupid ‘name three songs’ thing about the Green Day shirt Irene was wearing)

3. Said its misogynistic that cheerleaders always cheered for the boys sports and told Irene that cheer wasn’t a real sport anyways (multiple times) and insists that she didn’t deserve the student athlete of the year award even tho she worked her ass off to deserve it (and damn if that ain’t some misogynistic bullshit if you ask me)

Here’s a quote I found in the reviews that is a big reason why I fucking hate scottie

"It's not my fault you're so fucking insecure about being a cheerleader or that no one, including your own mother, takes you seriously about it."

That’s just so fucked up, I’m sorry. I would never fucking date her if she said that shit to me

NOT TO MENTION

Wanna know what Irene did that was supposedly so awful?

Had Scottie’s car towed. And it wasn’t even malicious! She accidentally had Scottie’s car towed when she was trying to have someone else’s towed to prevent them from driving drunk after a party they were at. Like if I were Scottie id be pretty pissed but like ? Just make her pay the fucking fee to get it back. Don’t need to be a huge bitch about it. She would’ve known it was an accident too if she just TALKED TO HER, but no, decided Irene was her worst enemy ever

And we find out about what happened after Scottie kissed her ex at a party after her and irene are sorta getting together for real, and brings the car issue up when irene is upset with her for it. Like I’m sorry you’re only going to bring up the awful “oh you towed my car” thing when you just kissed your ex when you’re with her??? Nope not comparable whatsoever I’m sorry

AND when she asked Irene to fake date her, Irene wasn’t out!! She was out to her family but Scottie really put her in a shitty situation with her offer. She either had to get a job and quit cheer (which if I remember correctly was how she planned to get a college scholarship!!!) OR she could fake date this mean girl for money and out herself in the process. I hated that and that’s only the smallest of things

Small thing too is that apparently the book was set where I live?? Funny that it even mentions where they are from because I have not a single memory of any specific thing that would make me think it is set here haha

Anyways yeah if you made it this far, thank you for hearing my bitchy book thoughts. I cannot think of a single other book that I’ve read start to finish that I dislike enough to say this much about it (I’m very good at knowing if ill hate a book before I start it and I’m very easy to please as is)

[crunchy-rocc]

Hey hey!! Your taking rqs right?? May I have Neil and Allison friendship banter pretty pleasee (sorry if ur not taking rqs tho!!)

man tries skincare for the first time ever

[thefoxholecast]

Hey oh my gosh!!!! Im currently listening to yalls latest ep and you mention jone mireau (correct me if I spelt that wrong cause I probably have) and you said he does SCULPTING !!!!! You said that it doesnt have anything to do with Jean.... BUT JEREMY ASKS JEAN TO COME TO POTTERY CLASSES WITH HIM.

Gasp! I had totally forgot about the pottery class!! We will have to rethink our Jean Moreau & Joan Miró parallels.........

[joanofexys]

Dude what happened to your exy confessions blog?!! Its totally fine if you dont have the time im just asking but woah man we miss u

I’ve just been busy and low energy lately! Plus I’m trying to make sure I have everything ready for @aftgsecretsnowflake cause I’m starting that almost exactly when I start uni

I do have asks that I need to queue up and I’ve thought about just throwing them in the queue with no response but I don’t want to run that account as something I don’t even engage with. I want every anon and confession to get a response but I am at the point where I might just tag it and post it anyway

I’ve also just really not been in the mood for tumblr in general. This account is really the only one I’ve been using atm and even then I haven’t really been interacting with anyone or anything at all. In short I’ve just been feeling discouraged and kind of done with everything, I’m not gonna deactivate even though I’ve thought about it, it just might take me a minute to get back into things and actually get caught up with everything I need to do

For the aftg ask game!

3 - Favourite scene(s)?

4 - If you could choose to make one fictional place from the books real, which one?

25 - Your now only allowed to ship Kevin with one person (1) who is it?

All For The Game Ask Game

3. Favorite Scene? - hmmmm there's so many !!! But the one that comes to mind right now is when Andrew gives Neil his phone. It makes me inane every time

4. If you could choose to make one fictional place from the books real, which one? - the foxhole court itself! I'd love to see an exy arena irl

25. You're only allowed to ship Kevin with one person, who is it? - oh this is a TOUGH one !!! I truly think Kevin is Aro so purely for sexual reasons, I'm pairing him with Allison. Unpopular Opinion I think, but I love the idea of the two Baddest Bitches in Exy being FWBs you know

[altruistic-meme]

[dragoncat223]

Plsplspls tell me abt your aftg royal au :0 !!!!!!

SOMEONE FINALLY ASKED YES OK IM SO EXCITED. (I’m writing a lot of this during a coaches college I’m attending this weekend)

Ok, so I imagine that Ichirou runs the main court of the Raven kingdom with an iron fist. Riko runs the smaller, secondary court to keep him occupied.

In order to start building Riko’s court I think Tetsuji killed Lady Kaleigh Day, they went to some finishing school together, in order to claim her son, Kevin.

Nathan Wesninski donated his own son, Nathaniel, to Riko’s court as well. So Keven, Neil, and Riko grow up together.

Meanwhile, Wymack is establishing The Foxhole court. He names Abby queen. They are also close friends with Duchess Betsy Dobson.

Betsy, who is an accomplished swords woman, finds a feral 13 year old in the woods near her manor.

Andrew spends a lot of time just… fucking around in the forest, avoiding the orphanage he lives in. So Betsy offers to train him, and takes him in as her sword son. But before legally adopting him, Tilda Minyard comes for him. She finally let the secret slip about Andrew and Luther dragged Tilda to go get him. Betsy wanted to keep Andrew, but (at this point they’ve known each other for about 2 years) Andrew asked her to trust him and to let him go. She agrees. Two months later, a terrible fire kills Tilda. Andrew comes home to Betsy with Aaron in tow. A week later, Nicky comes to stay with them too.

Eventually, Kevin is tossed aside by Riko, who finds Neil a much more interesting toy. So Kevin runs to Wymack.

I have more, like how Neil comes to the castle, or how the upperclassmen fit into all this. I have a fic written in this au here. If you have any more questions or want to hear/read more please ask!!

hihi !!!!! Im stilll thinking about when the podcast mentioned the etymology of the word exy, do share the post nora made on it 👀 its driving me insane

Absolutely! It's in the Extra Content from her old Blogspot.

Here's the link to the whole post: History of Exy.

And here is the part in the comments section specifically about the etymology of Exy:

Exy originated from "ecstasy". I don't even remember why it was called that, even if I can still track the devolution of the word. エクスタシー (ekusutashii) shortened to エクシー (ekushii) and Americanized as "Exy".
