Unpopular opinion (???) but Colt and Jean would make the best boyfriends out of the Aot boys

Let’s not even talk about how f*cking fun flirting with Colt’s inexperienced ass would be oop

But like seriously the fluster, the confusion and shyness in his eyes but you can still see the longing in them??? Walk with me for a sec lol lemme stop

Alright I’ve seen enough takes on this and while I understand everyone’s viewpoint and validate it I want to give mine bc mine is probably a very niche perspective.

When it comes to the relationship between Gregory and Vanessa, I do view them as siblings. And no not in the umbrella way, not in the “this is the only thing that makes the most sense” sort of way, I mean they have sibling energy period. And I’ll tell you why.

Bc I do not view them as being immediate found family. At all. They have too much trauma both independently and with each other. I don’t even think they’d like each other very much at first. I feel like their initial relationship would be more of a ”you saved me so I’ll return the favor by helping you out” way.

Personally. I don’t think relationships with strong bonds should immediately go into something romantic or familial (maybe it’s cuz I’m raging aroace and very platonic/queerplatonic bc I know that’s an unpopular opinion) but in my eyes, you NEED TO BUILD A FRIENDSHIP FIRST. and I think that’s exactly what they’re gonna do.

They’re gonna slowly and gradually form a friendship, one that most people would think is strange and unusual bc it’s an adult and a child but let’s be fr neither of them are what you’d consider “typical” (yes I personally hc them both being ND. Again, this is my opinion). I also don’t think they don’t really give af what people think. So why would they bother putting a label that they don’t really agree with on them? No imo they won’t do that unless they truly do mean it.

Again, this could very well be projecting. But I am personally someone that doesn’t like being given a “sister” label unless it’s actually meant. Maybe it’s my extreme sibling complex. But I don’t think I’m wrong for feeling that way. And imo, I think overtime they would view each other in the way best friends view each other as siblings. I don’t even think there would even need to be anything legal. But if there was, she would be a legal guardian at best. Bc it still gives the freedom to identify how they choose. And to me, it’s very similar to Lilo and Nani from “Lilo and Stitch.”

Bc I think two things can be true at the same time. Vanessa can be a caregiver, and have some responsibilities when it comes to making sure Gregory is ok and kept safe. But also, she herself needs someone to take care of her. Bc she can’t. And while I do like the idea of Freddy taking care of them both, I also like them taking care of each other.

She definitely has aspects that could be seen as maternal, but I don’t view her as essentially parental. She simply isn’t ready. There’s too much trauma and a bit of emotional immaturity (again not a bad thing, she’s very childlike imo). I think she sees him more equal than that. Not someone that is helpless and needs to be watched 24/7. But someone that needs a little guidance every now and then. And that’s where I think looking up to her in an older sibling kinda way comes in.

She’s like a combined playmate and caregiver. An equal partner but also someone that takes on the worst of the burden so he doesn’t have to. Even though he will do so anyway bc he cares that much about her.

So yea, that’s my take on their relationship. Again, it’s just my opinion, and I understand people not agreeing and wanting something else for them. But this is how I choose to view them, and I don’t think that it’s wrong ❤️

Great googley moogley it’s all going to shit! Every day becomes exponentially more terrifying!

And all perfectly timed to just right at the start of what’s supposed to be my adult life where I get my shit together and be useful and productive!

[foxgloveinspace]

I mean this in the nicest way possible: I wish I was a better friend.

I hate being friends with psych majors who. Apparently have never had a bad experience in therapy bc it means they have never even once considered that therapy might be bad or there might be problems in the psychiatric field at large. Tell me why I was talking to someone about the ways that ODD is like. Extremely racially biased in its diagnosis and typically is either 1 the child acting out bc they are facing some kind of trauma at home or or 2 literally just a black child with adhd and she said “see this is why I love your generation (she’s. Literally 4 years older than me) you guys do so much research on things i never even would have thought of” girl! What do you mean you never thought of it. This isn’t even as a radical of a take as other ones I have within psych like there are many people who mostly believe in the psychiatric system and still say “yeah I don’t diagnose kids with conduct or impulse disorders bc of the way that it can like. Ruin their life” bc it CAN and DOES. Like yes recommend therapy if you feel it would help but. Putting this kid doesn’t trust or listen to authority in there medical files demonstrably makes it less likely for medical professionals (in psych and non psych fields) to listen to their symptoms and help them. It also makes it much easier for those same professionals to force them to undergo treatments they might otherwise not want as them not wanting to do it literally seen as a reason they need it. Anyway that same girl has to explained that even if the cast says she’s bad jk Rowling does definitely still profit off of Harry Potter merch and why the two trans ppl she was with did not want anything to do with it.

**Fic related, scroll past if you don’t care or don’t want spoilers!**

In another not so shocking ramble about me thinking about my own au where a cosmic horror is just chilling in ryomas body, Eagle was unintentional in many ways but I think what I still think about is how it can be interpreted as Ryoma being a system.

I’m not one myself and the concept is still new to me-I only ever knew about DID thanks to Pat from starforce but even with how accurate he is, he only scratched the surface-so until I have someone who is a system read my fic I can’t have a full perspective, but I think even despite the fact Eagle being fused into Ryoma, there is still some metaphorical system parallels to be made.

How Ryoma has clear amnesia barriers, how Eagle was in a sense formed out of his trauma, how what happened to Ryoma to begin with would reasonably cause someone to split into two people to cope, how Eagle arguably has the role of a “protector” and took over Ryomas body when he felt unsafe, how they meet in his “inner world” when Ryoma finally realizes Eagle is in him. Even Kyodai who I leave up to interpretation of being the real deal or not, if going off he’s just apart of Ryomas mind, then he would be another headmate who is mostly is “dormant”, meaning he’s inactive.

I’m really proud with myself that despite my system friends not reading this fic or really being invested in Getter, I could still point to something as a frame of reference I wrote for people to understand the concept a bit better.

why am i only just now as an about-to-be-27 year old fully grown adult figuring out that i am more than likely on the autistic spectrum 🫠

[verdantdaises]

Important question, do you write them as dogs or as people?

Good question!!! I deliberately leave it ambiguous bc I don’t really care what people picture in their heads like idc truly ahaha

Either way they have some fur and are dog men or are humans and have skin it doesn’t matter to me, I do mention skin a bit but people can interpret it however they want :))

🌸🦖🌿?

🌸 Best compliment you ever received?

I feel like it had to be something about my personality. Personality compliments are always top tier for me and then singing compliments are probably next 🩷

🦖 Favorite extinct animal?

Dinosaurs???? I’m sorry I’m awful lol

🌿 Describe your favorite outfit.

Right now I don’t think I have a *favorite* outfit. My go to outfit when I want to look cute is usually a skirt and a top that is either a crop top or I crop myself 😂

I love how “Gregory has PTSD” is an official tag on ao3, but “Vanessa has PTSD” is not…

[chibishortdeath]

Hmmm I kinda want to make a side blog for RPG Maker game development related things to be able to talk to more experienced people in that community, but at the same time I both don’t really think I’d get much attention and don’t want to accidentally spoil my own game (^^ ; ).

I have a rough story, concept doodles, a tileset, some character sprites, an enemy that walks around but can’t initiate battle yet (if I even decide to have a battle system), a couple rooms with some events, and a functioning run button, but I’m still lost on how to do much else at the moment. Especially since this program has the ability for scripting, meaning I’ll probably have to learn and actually retain another coding language.

So, I’m not very far at all lol. Idk how well that’d go over on the established fandom website, but eh.

[astral-catastrophe]

Okay but actually, considering how horrid this person’s been to me, I get to be bitchy
