Halloween dress-up, let's go!!!
Assignment: "Dress up as ghosts".
Status: Yes. They're ghosts. Just really different types of ghosts
#fanart#danny fenton/m'gann m'orzz#spearmint ship#i love them so much#yes M'gann is a White Lady#and before anyone hypothetically comes at me saying that White Lady should be all just white/have black hair but i have my reasons#in universe is: they decided to dress up “normal way” and it turned out that M'gann as a Martian was allergic to most make-up products#and in the end she threw some flour on her face and called it a day#and the meta reason is: I haven't drew Megan enough to believe she'd be recognizable with different hairstyle and without her color pallette#anyway#i love White Lady ghosts#like i can't even express how much i love them like aesthetically#and from the backstory standpoint#they're just neat imo#they're also really popular in Poland (my beloved motherland *patriotic sounding eagle noise because eagle is National Emblem of Poland :D*)#like you can trip on them#nearly every caslte has either White Lady or some cursed knight or *both*#and we have a lot of castles (though not a lot with original decor because fucking Red Army; sorry it makes me emotional)#but like to emphasise how many White Ladies we have#my uni's main building has one and it's not even a castle anymore#her story is really cool too#it involves Iron Maiden patricide and in some versions a lovestory#it also won't derail this post but I'd love to share it if someone is interested#halloween#happy halloween#dpxdc#dp x dc#dc x dp#wandixx arts#have a nice day dear stranger who got to this part

Slcbsks its okay no worries I just wanted to know if there was a fic of it!! I’ve read your other works and gosh darn it they are so good!! Omg embarrassing that I also got the name of the bleeding wires au wrong km😭
Anyway, I hope you’re having a ✨fantastic✨ day!! I hope there will be another part to the drabble!! I wanna know what happens after ✨the kiss✨😩🤌
dw about getting the name wrong, ‘bloodied’ is basically the same as ‘bleeding’ LMAO. also thank you for reading my other works!! it means a lot that you enjoy them so much 💞💞 do u have a particular fav :3 (other than bleeding wires LOL)
im assuming youre talking about that suggestive obedience drabble that ended w a kiss. i wasn’t planning on writing a direct continuation for it tbh LMAO. buttttttt okay ill let you in on a secret on how i imagine it to go since ur so nice <3
sun kisses you and it’s like the entire world freezes. you don’t know how to react—don’t know how to process anything of what you’re feeling. the frigidity of the room along your bare skin. the way his hand grips at your side squeezing squeezing squeezing. the intensity with which he presses the lines of his static smile against your mouth.
it—you recognize faintly—is a bit like pressing your lips against a wall. immovable. there is no motion, no push and pull, give and take. there is only him, him him him. pressing down onto you. holding you. letting you feel the gentle vibrations in his chassis, the almost violent whirring of his fans. you feel like you’ve been coated in static, numb and distantly tingly. you have to suppress a shiver.
and beyond the buzzing emptiness of your brain, the shock and surprise of what is now happening—it clicks that sun is kissing you.
the same sun who makes jabs at humanity more often than is comfortable. who criticizes you from time or time or gives you backhanded compliments. who bothers you even if you don’t feel like talking. who tells you about all the nitty gritty thoughts he has. who looks down at all that you are and doesn’t really see you, you think, past your blood and flesh and bones. who has never shown an ounce of interest in you in this manner.
(you don’t realize that he has been showing interest, all this time. he just never realized it himself, never quite processed that certain actions he has taken is his way of showing he actually… likes you. more so than others.
and you were just too unused to his quirks and particulars to be able to properly read him.)
and you are so, so confused.
you’d just wanted to poke back at him, for his stupid experiment he said he was conducting. that’s what you tell yourself—incessantly in your mind, repeating it over and over until it seems less like a lie. you wanted to see if there was anything past that complex he wears like some kind of thick skin. you never.... you never imagined things would come to this. you are afraid of what it means, deep down.
and so, you reach your hands up to his chassis, and give him a gentle push back.
it's like he has to tear himself away, staring down at you with pupils that have dilated so much, it's like there are full moons in his eyes. your gaze flicks across his faceplate, analyzing.
"sun," you say quietly, your lips numb. that's all it takes.
he steps back—abrupt and sharp—the rays along his faceplate twitching and stuttering. his hand snaps away from your side like it has been burned, and you can see the way his gaze darts about. like he is a cornered animal, confused and startled.
"friend, i—" he starts, then forcefully stops. his hand clutches at the front of his chassis for a moment, scrambling for something you're not sure he has. he shakes his head, minute, then turns his back to you.
"your shift is over," he says, oddly stilted. something sinks, deep within your chest. "put your clothes back on and get out."
and then he leaves. you can only stand there, getting steadily colder and colder, your heart a jumbled mess.
#star gazing with shay#a nonny mouse#bleeding wires au#i like to imagine tht during arc1 sun actually shows u quite a bit of kindness at times#he brushes it off of course and so do u#but he just has these instances where he's soft with u in particular--waaaay down the line#and then he realizes one day and hes like why am i like this? why do i keep thinking about u like this?#and of course comes to the wrong conclusion#<- that may be a bit contradictory to stuff ive said before for this au but i think sprinkling in some nice moments at the plex#is better so that reader can like... have a bit of a soft spot for him? like their exchanges cant all be passive aggressive all the time yk#maybe you have a hard time with a parent and sun swoops in to help you#or maybe you stick up for sun to someone who doesnt believe he's sentient#and it just builds up and up and up for sun until he catches feels for u--but he doesnt know it and misinterprets it#cuz he's bad with emotions#and poor u... u dont realize he's down bad for u until it's too late

Fighting DEMONS rn trying not to get invested in one piece to figure out wtf you're posting about!!!!
come here cyber.... we have this thang
#mp answers#i've been trying so hard not to be annoying to my bnha friends but if you will allow me to push this for this ask let me say 🙏#if you're afraid of the episode count for one piece the manga is a lot quicker read while being just as enjoyable because the art style is#an actual delight. its great its fantastic im absolutely in love with it#the series is soooo good and i know luffy can seem unappealing to people before they start but he's just SUCH a great character & continues#to be even now. the story is SO GOOD the characters are SO GOOD... theres so much lore and world building that its insane#if you read the manga we get 'cover stories' on what's going on with previous characters to see what theyre up to even though we moved on#from where we left them. a lot of these cover stories blend into the main story so well its just seamless#there's one where we get introduced to a character we dont see hundreds of episodes into the anime and they show up like; during the second#saga. the series is about traveling to other islands and every single arc has been tied to another in some way or form that shows up later#even if its sagas and sagas later- it still becomes relevant again!! it's a huge ongoing story and there isnt a single arc that feels like#it has no purpose (sans filler in the anime-but even then!! some filler arcs are really entertaining!)#it's emotional! its sad! its downright stupid and silly but GOD... you can feel the love that oda put into this series and his characters#and the emotions in the expressions and the messages the story gives off it just makes me UEUHGHHAHGHH!!!#it's all about the adventure and the romance of it all! its about the freedom it brings and bringing freedom to others!#its a series where treasure should be a focus given its pirates and the its a giant treasure hunt for the one piece and yet! and yet so man#of the characters treasures are things that are not coins and gems but people and promises and family and and#im going to EXPLODE i love one piece

Looks like that video is about a month & a half after The Trade and trevors broken ankle 😣
re: this video… anon 😭 i had suspicions but it is so much worse to have them confirmed that really was like. trevor’s first Public Appearance without jamie AND post-broken ankle which is traumatic in and of itself no wonder every beat reporter was like ‘oh yeah trevor’s just devastated’
wouldn’t you be miserable too if your best friend just got traded and your body betrayed you and what if it was maybe all your fault!!!
#bestie thank you so much for fact-checking me 🙏🙏🥰🥰 i love when y’all come in my inbox & answer the questions i yell into the void of my tag#we are Suffering about trevor TOGETHER in this house. if i scrolled all the way to the bottom of my drafts i think i could find even more#heartbreaking content from before The Trade but we don’t need to suffer that much otherwise the penguin cup of tea is really irish coffee#confirms ALL of my theories about miserable trevor leaning into mason for comfort because in some universes that’s THEIR boyfriend who left#liv in the replies#trevor zegras#mason mctavish#need to go lay on the floor about this one folks. do you think trevor said he would only do it if mason came if he could sit next to mason#right at the end where people were rushing out not stopping to talk tired by the end of the line and not even thinking just to guarantee he#wouldn’t get asked anything because he still has a hard time believing it’s real he keeps thinking jamie’ll be there especially w/his ankle#i’m sure he doesn’t have a great time with stairs so he probably will nap on the couch sometimes and that moment right when he first wakes#up to the bang of the door and he doesn’t quite know he’s awake yet and he thinks it’s jamie coming in? heartbreaker right there bud. sorry#ALSO because I can’t say it and leave it alone I almost put that last bit strictly in the tags but like. there’s gotta be some part of#trevor that knows it’s nothing to do with him but still naïvely believes that if he’d maybe been there if he hadn’t been injured things#could have worked out differently if he’d been there and it’s his fault his ankle broke and do you remember all the interviews jamie gave#about how you never think you’ll be traded and how strange it is to be moving and now i need you to take that naïveté times 1000 for trevor#who of course he never even pictures jamie leaving they were building the core together!!! why would they ever get rid of him!! and if only#trevor had been there to show how important jamie was. what would he have done? literally nothing but that does not stop the emotional guil#from enveloping trevor like a rain cloud and making him sit in mason’s apartment with ice cream bowl in hand. holistic treatment l

#OK I NEED TO STOP engaging with 911 ship wars but i have ONE MORE THING to say (probably lying)#i think it’s genuinely concerning how many people believe a ship has to have years of emotional connection before you’re allowed to ship it#like. imo you should be allowed to ship characters for any reason#crackships and rarepairs exist for a reason#secondly and probably more importantly#i think it’s really weird how many people are uncomfortable with the idea of gay sex#not in general but like#people were saying they were uncomfortable and weirded out because#an actor vaguely insinuated that the fictional character he plays would enjoy having gay sex with his partner#like people were calling him a freak#I THINK THATS WEIRD AND CONCERNING#it’s giving ‘my ship doesn’t have sex they make love while holding hands’#i think it ties into the first point#relationships are allowed to be built off attraction#you don’t need years and years of bonding for your relationship to be valid#and i think the visceral reaction against bucktommy because they’re not besties who share a kid is borderline homophobic#like there are plenty of valid reasons to dislike tommy and bucktommy like tommys previous behaviour#but being sooo against a ship based on the fact that there wasn’t enough ‘build up’ and that they don’t have a deep emotional bond#weird#and i don’t think it’s fetishisation to enjoy a canon couple im sorry that’s just a fucking crazy take#like it’s insane to me that apparently enjoying a gay ship is fetishisation unless it meets certain ‘emotional bonding’ criteria#also bathena is one of the most beloved ships on the show and their ‘build up’ was one date and a church hangout#and no one claims that they’re rushed and underdeveloped and that’s why one of them should be written off the show#like i said i think there’s a lot of valid reasons to dislike the ship (even if i do enjoy it)#but some of the arguments i’ve seen are just weird and i think you guys need to look at why it makes you uncomfortable#engage with other fandoms with more diverse ships and maybe you’ll calm down a little#911 discourse#for clarity the tumblr fandom seems to be okay but 911twt is an actual hell scape

Anyway Gale bg3 is demisexual and astarion bg3 is some flavor of aroace they’re ours now sorry not sorry
#Gale doesn’t even kiss you for the longest time - he’s building an emotional bond#his sex scene is less about sex and more about using physicality to express his emotions#astarion takes the whole game to be interested in sex with you for sex#he starts out using you for protection#then explicitly says he doesn’t want anyone to think of him in terms of sex#and has been sex averse for the last 200 years#it has been 200 odd years since he’s been actually sexually interested in someone#and if he’s ascended he’s back to using sex to manipulate#if he’s rejected the ritual he’s interested in sex for intimacy and outside of that appears to disassociate#and he’s definitely some flavor of aromantic#his romantic life lines up with his sex life - it’s been a tool for the last 200 years and you are the first person he’s had feelings for

Okay I was not expecting to write E-rated fanfic tonight but apparently I can bash 4k of Sloan gaslighting and manipulating Julian in under 4 hours and I'm slightly worried at how easy that was 😅😅
In other news, if anyone's into Sloanshir, there's a new fic on the block :P
#sloanshir#you know when a fic practically writes itself?#yeah. that.#there's definitely still some internalised purity culture hangin around telling me i shouldn't be this proud of writing pure filth#but tbf it's only like#50% filth?#40%?#there's a LOT of emotional build-up and Julian angst too 😀#WSB

I just remembered that one scene from the movie so uhm actually I think Carl actually only cares for TWO people in the diner
#not art 😱#fnaf#the silly au#haven't drawn him a whole lot but from the tiny bits i have i think all thats been gathered is that#pitbull named cupcake is willing to nuke the entire world either bc he was inconvenienced or bc CHICA was inconvenienced#everyone else in the diner is a 9-5 for him like once he's clocked out he's gone 👋 bye have fun with yalls emotional drama#Except. maybe bonnie.#haven't drawn a lot of it either but bonnie & chica are close friends so i think carl would care for him at least A Little more#they could probably relate to each other in terms of. being angry. but most of their connection is based on chica lmao#so being semi friends with bonnie is the closest carl gets to being involved with the drama at all bc like.#carl & chica? not related at all to the founding family. yknow the family that keeps having problems.#bonnie is literally the founders' eldest (and favorite) son so. having him in the dynamic brings along some collateral damage#so carl could technically KNOW about the shit that goes on. bc bonnie tells chica all about it and chica feels obligated to Do Shit about it#but the thing about carl is that he knows when to be like. ok? thats your problem.#like maybe he fails in at least being sympathetic but i just don't think he wants to care that much#he's very selective about what he cares about and what for the things he DOES care for he is INSUFFERABLY PASSIONATE about it#like ohhh no bonnie your fuckass boyfriend is getting drunk every day and your dad & brothers won't listen to you boohoo man figure it out#oh someone didn't like chica's food? can i blow up this entire fucking building then.#carl

if you like rewatching tv shows an ungodly number of times, may i recommend doing a rewatch of only episodes a particular character is in
especially fun if they’re properly missing (in a coma, dead, out of town, in another dimension) from the show for any significant period
(you get to see the character arc without gaps and you can get randomly dropped in the middle of series like wow this would be weird without context huh)
#brought to you by my rewatches of buffy/angel where i just watched episodes with faith#who is just constantly showing up halfway through seasons with no context#this is basically the actual experience of watching the untamed as is huh#i also did angel for buffy seasons 2&3#which like…i’ve watched the end of becoming enought times i don’t cry#but getting all of buffy’s emotion in one go rather than building up over half a season made me cry again#and i did one for darla (fun to see her in s1 of buffy compared to s2 of angel)#(intentionally or not i feel like there’s some good continuity of her character between the two)

watching jjk and man they yap a lot
#why does every character have some type of flashback backstory#this is really setting it up for a bunch of them to die i think#cause it will easily build emotion and make the reader go oh no!#how will they support or fix x thing???#putting that aside they defintely move through the shonen tropes significantly faster and improvements#the animation is also really fucking good#the impacts are awesome and the attacks are like holy shit#like you can FEEL the power difference#and i love when that happens#see one piece at like sabody#lot more female characters than naruto and have more character to them#I really do enjoy the intelligence they give to sukuna#much more interesting that just primal let lose of the nine tails#.txt#jjk

the way people talk about and view mental illness has always been under this veil of sympathy and understanding but really when that energy is most needed it all just vanishes. we have 200 more specific terms for certain symptoms and 2000 more videos on how to stop procrastinating and how to deal with rejection sensitive dysphoria and 50000 new videos on how it's In Your Brain and it's Hereditary and it's Homemade by your Primary Caregivers but people still dont really ...get it. they just dont. the resources available are so hollow. its empty promises. suicide hotline that just gets you insta-detained. therapist you talk in circles with for a third of your income per session. housing program with a wait list that only gets longer. this insistence that you build up a support system with no support. this quietly depleting time frame you have (or feel you have, this very real pressure) in which to get your shit together before you're just another sad statistic. always having to wait until you're at the brink of complete self destruction to get help, and by then. how much damage is already done
it's all just casting shadows on the wall
#i do think healing is possible i have seen that in the world#i do think there ARE good resources but they are few and far between#i think the greatest resource at anyones disposal tends to be something thats hard to build from the ground up#which is: a stable foundation. family members you can fall back on#if we had stuff like ubi. guaranteed housing. i know people here know that already#but truly. truly that is one of the most key things second to the good family that a lot of ppl dont have#wouldnt fix everything but itd be such a good start#every couple decades we reinvent 'moral care' when we realize the institutions for mentally ill ppl are actually like. brutalizing them#the way they have since the beginning#and then those good intentions get bogged down by The System of it all all over again#at some point we have to reckon with the sheer amount of people struggling this way and prepare resources more adequately#have enough people so that everyone can get the amount of support they need and give that support without getting burnt out#thats why we end up wsith this stuff like friendships that cant handle your 'trauma dumping' and 'emotional labor' bc there is...a capacity#for everyone#which is why you need a whole host of people you can trust and confide in. which is hard to get!

i am dangerously close to making my own interpretation of superman
#soren.txt#maws needs to come back before i do something insane#anyways. so what i was thinking of was pulling the same idea maws had#with the main cast being significantly younger#and lois treating her internship like a bootcamp. the idea is so funny to me id kinda love to write it#but then she breaks away from this because of superman. the call to adventure if you will#and clark sorta had a rough time growing up because of his powers#maybe some accident happened which caused him to overcorrect himself so he doesn't use his powers at all#so metropolis is a completely new start for him#BUT during his senior year of highschool is when pa dies#so when he comes to metropolis the trauma is still somewhat raw? especially since he spent the next few years#trying to keep a brave face for the sake of ma because he feels like that's all he really *can* do#he may or may not have some guilt because he feels like he could've prevented it from happening to begin with#i think jimmy would be a nice change of pace for him. grounding him a bit more n all.#while lois is practically begging him to join her. clark is very attached to his safe space with jimmy lol#anyways eventually itd get to the point of clois slowburn and lois building a *platonic* relationship with both clark and supes#because as ive expressed before i kinda wanted stupid love triangle shenanigans and also i love slow burn#and im obsessed with the powers connected to emotions trope that im dialing it up a notch

inside out 2 is interesting but it sure is the exact same plot as inside out 1 down to the emotions getting stranded outside hq as a core aspect of rileys isbeliminated and having to start from scratch while joy loses hope and cries while watching memories in a pile of memories that were deemed unimportant before being deus ex machinad by an imaginary cartoon
#inside out 2 spoilers#except joy has not learned her lesson about all emotions and memories being valuable and that she is not in charge#of making the call of which emotions are important. she builds her team up by emphasizing the good they do for riley#and continues to be an absolute control freak who puts an emphasis on her own importance seeming to have learned very little#some could argue that the emotions arent distinct enough or are even too nebulous to be their own emotions#and according to many theories in the subject all emotions come from combining multiple of the core emotions#which is why having nostalgia show up for a gag was... interesting. considering the first movie literally showed us joy and sadness memorie#create nostalgic ones. otherwise i mostly just feel like theyre too disparate and am still shocked how joy is like. the only positive#emotion. period.#anyway yeah it kinda underminded the first movies thesis that all emotions are important and helpful by making anxiety basically plain bad#even despite her explanations of why shes good. like she drops her memory in the sense of self and it immediately sprouts ominously#like idk maybe im just quibbling over foreshadowing in a childrens movie but to keep in line with that original thesis#wouldnt it make more sense to get more corrupt only as anxiety continues to flood it with only her emotion#like basing your entire sense of self and personality/beliefs around one emotion entirely is extremely unhealthy#and like it starts normal and gets more erratic as anxiety becomes the ONLY contributing factor. its probably not that important#okay so joy learns her lesson about the memories. but its still like. girl did you not already basically learn this before

quietly getting more & more annoyed at my housemate & her bf as the evening goes on. thought they were at his house this weekend but they showed up unexpectedly to have loud sex here, left for a little bit, came back in the middle of a fight, and are now watching tv really loudly in between continuing to totally-not-fight-everything's-FINE.
#ctxt#shit chat#they're both rly nice people who genuinely love each other a lot & have been together like 7 years#but in the time i've known them they just keep playing out the same maladaptive patterns together and it's painful to watch#one of them will be irritable for some reason and snap at the other; other responds by airing a deep-seated grievance they've been sittin on#and instead of just. having a conflict about it to its conclusion to resolve the issue they just both fall over themselves apologizing#and spend several hours being really touchy & reactive to little things but overwhelmingly gentle/reassuring/affectionate#person A: *snaps* im sorry baby i didn't mean it i'm just stressed i love you so much can i do anything for you?#person B: no no my love you're fine i'm not mad i understand can i do anything for YOU you're so special i care about you so much#*make out in the kitchen about it a bit. swap roles rinse & repeat*#like i know turning towards a loved one after conflict instead of giving them the cold shoulder is a sign of emotional maturity#and is generally a healthy communication habit#but like. you gotta actually HAVE the conflict first instead of glossing over it the minute difficult emotions come up???#and when they get in these loops i really think they should just. agree on a mutual time out to do their own thing for a day#calm down sort themselves out and then come back together to mend things#instead of just reflexively drawing closer together immediately to try and smother discontent#which just results in them still being upset and now tripping over each other bumping elbows exacerbating things#while being obnoxiously saccharine to cover it up#i mean. 7 yrs is nothing to sneeze at but imo this is. not a sustainable way of relating & building a life together#and it sucks to watch it play out. reminds me of my parents who were blissfully incompatible in a similar way for like 30 years#before it finally blew up spectacularly with a lot of collateral damage earlier this year.
