Camp Camp S5E1 opinions (spoilers)
I just watched the new episode of Camp Camp and nobody cares but here's what I have to say, first:
(this is your disclaimer to please watch the new episode LEGALLY and in a way that supports the creators. Even if that means blocking spoilers for a bit so you can watch it for free when it's available. It's a small team, and they deserve all the support they can get because making cartoons is hard!)
All this is my opinion, if you disagree, let me know! I genuinely want to discuss it. If you agree with me, then feel free to vent along with me and we can be excited or dissapointed together. The show qualifies as art and is open to criticism. Also WARNING: SPOILERS FOR THE NEW SEASON PREMIERE OF CAMP CAMP!
Ok with all that garbage out of the way, here's what I have to say:
Likes:
• Max’s new voice is pretty good. I got used to it pretty quick. Props to the VA!
• Dolph’s new design is cute. I totally understand why they changed it and the redesign is good.
• DAVID WITH GUN. DAVID WITH GUN.
•I think the idea of the whole camp hating the trio is funny and I kind of wish they made it real even though it went against the point of the episode kind of.
• The part where the trio is shaming Preston and they all move in sync was the one part that made me laugh. I love when they're all being goofy together.
• I liked the idea with the circle in the dirt at first because I thought it was just Max’s way of illustrating a point and I thought it was cute how he included his friends. Started as a nice moment
• Nurf lovingly flipping them off was funny.
• my gwenvid heart was soaring. They were very cute and I wish we got a more overt gwenvid moment as a send-off. Like, it doesn't have to be made canon and can stay subtle but something for the fans would have been nice.
• Gwen’s new voice did a good job. Slightly different vibe to her but it wasn't bad at all. I liked it. It was an interesting change and I didn't mind at all.
• The scene with Max and David’s hike was beautiful and the best part of the episode by far. They're both so in character, they are well-written and their dynamic is so sweet, and the message rings true. It was a nice moment and something I think Max needed to hear.
• “somebody. Fucking. Has to.” GUYS WHEN I TELL YOU I FJGKRNGKRHDNR WHAT A CALLBACK. I wish they made David’s reaction a little longer and made it more of a moment because I nearly missed it at first but once I heard it I got so excited. Really, Max’s whole pep talk in that moment is very good.
• The camera is such a thoughtful and fitting gift for Max because he's struggling with letting go of camp, and the fact he uses it himself too makes it all the more sweet.
• My lil Makki heart jumped when Max came back and Nikki shouts his name. It was sweet, the excitement and joy in her voice. I forgot it was meant to be a joke at first honestly it was so sincere.
• the animation was great! I loved the facial animations, especially on David and Nikki. Idk why those two had such good expressions but I'm not complaining.
• the trio. They're such besties. I'm love them.
• Honestly the fight cloud with Nikki and Neil was fun idk why I liked watching them wrastle. Children fighting is amusing.
• I'm glad Gwen finally got recognized for her talent. It’s a running theme throughout the show that Gwen is more talented and capable than she lets on and this was a fine way to end it. Good for her.
• Whe- WUH- THE ENDING. WHERE ARE THEY GONNA GO FROM HERE? I AM EXCITED AND INTRIGUED
Dislikes:
• opening narration was unnecessary
• wish they introduced Dolph’s new look more organically. It deserves to be it’s own moment.
• why can't Nikki write? She's 9 not 4. She was never stupid.
• plot is all over the place. It's like two or three episodes smashed into one and there's not enough extra time for any of them. It lacks focus. If it were up to me I would have cut out the first half with the social media app and the trio trying to get people to like them. It felt like filler.
• it's just not very funny. There was maybe one joke that made me laugh. And not even hard. Camp Camp is usually pretty funny to me so I don't get what happened. The comedy is all so slow despite the plot being so crammed so I wonder if the delivery was faster if we would have more time for plot. Anyway, they just lacked any sort of setup or punchline. Just nothing jokes.
• Why does Max go along with trying not to be bossy? He clearly didn't care before and the way it's written it isn't implied he's doing it for his friends. It's like he suddenly did care about being liked out of nowhere. I think it would have been funny and made more sense if maybe Nikki or Neil made him play along, like Nikki bit him until he stopped.
• the circle thing. It was a cute idea at first because I thought Max was just making some kind of metaphor, and I thought that it was cute. I wish they kept it like that and just made it a sweet moment of Max expressing his devotion to his friends in his own way but instead they stay in the circle and are just unfunny for a few minutes and then Nikki says they ran away?? Like first of all why are you running away and also no, you didn't run away because you're still at camp. WHY ARE THEY IN THE CIRCLE IT DOES NOTHING FOR THE PLOT AND MAKES NO SENSE?
• I HATED THE CLOSE-UP OF NIKKI’S NOSE SO MUCH IT WAS SO UNFUNNY WHY IS SHE MADE TO BE SO UNLIKABLE FOR THAT ONE BIT JUST SO MAX CAN LOOK AT HER IN DISGUST IT WAS SO BAD
• Is it just me or do they keep playing sad music like... A lot? It just keeps popping up every other scene and at some point it just became funny to me. It's so badly paced out lol
• I mentioned Max’s pep talk was good and it was but also I wish that it was in a better written context. Like, I think it would have been a better end to the cliff scene instead of a way to motivate David to... fight a robot cause... He thinks he can't... Because reasons? It doesn't make a whole lot of sense and I think that it's supposed to connect but it really doesn't.
• Too much Preston. Never liked Preston never will. Why did he talk so much.
• the running gag of everyone being like “oooookay” when the trio assumes they hate them is just... So unfunny omg
• This episode suffers from season 4 syndrome, which was a characteristic of season 4 that I heavily disliked where they sacrifice the outrageous personalities of the characters to have them sit around and discuss life lessons that aren't even that profound to begin with. It's boring, unnatural, and uncharacteristic. At least make it funny. I don't want to see them sit on the ground and calmly discuss basic friendship lessons like I KNOW THAT NOW PLEASE DO SOMETHING INTERESTING.
• I wish David and Max got a better goodbye. I kind of liked David’s line of “That's good enough for me.” but I wish they expanded on it. Maybe have Max struggle to be sincere and make it more obvious that he's trying to act tough and David still sees through it. So he's like “I get that's you're struggling to be sincere so ill take what I can get because I appreciate the effort.”
Overall, it was kind of a mixed bag. It had some very VERY good moments and a lot of good ideas, but I think it was messy and didn't use it's time well, as well as not taking advantage of a lot of potential jokes. I understand that they likely had limitations but they tried to tackle too much with one episode. If I were to change anything I would cut the first half and work on giving the characters a more clear and smooth arc from beginning to end. Pick a focus and stick to it! Still, I'm excited to see where this will go!

Main FAQ
First of all, let's make it clear - this blog is my home. You're not a "customer" and you're not "always right", you are a guest. If you don't like anything that happens here, just leave, scroll away or block. I will not change anything just because you don't like it.
Before sending an ask, please also check my bio. Surprisingly a lot of people don't do even that. Let's go.
Can I use your work for a profile picture/wallpaper on my device? Can I print your stuff?
You can take my work for personal use if you don't get any profit from it. If it's online - credit me.
Can I dub/translate your comics?
Yes but with few conditions.
1. You credit me as an original creator. If it's a video you put the credits in the video, not in the description. If it's a post you put them in the post itself, not in the comments.
2. You do not put your watermark on my work/do not erase my watermark. You also don't colour it/don't "fix" it. It's my work and my work alone.
3. You do not change the dialogue/add phrases that weren't said by the characters. Again, it is my work, it's my interpretation and I will not tolerate you taking my work and changing it to your liking.
4. If you want to profit from my work - you don't have my permission.
5. You take down videos/posts with my work if I ask you to.
If any of these don't suit you - you don't have my permission.
Can I make an AI bot of your character?
Hard no. Roleplay bots are almost always using public fanfiction without the consent of the authors, not paying for their hard work but using it for profit, it's theft and I'm not going to contribute to that. I'm already considering removing my own bots from Character AI, as ch.ai still doesn't tell the public how they're training their bots so we'll see about that.
Anything that is absolutely off the table when sending an ask?
- Please don't vent to me. I'm not a professional phycologist and I never agreed to play the role of one. I also avoid questions like "I had a bad day, can you draw[ ]?" because after them my inbox becomes a venting place. Please seek professional help if you feel like every day is worse than the previous.
- Please do not send me anything NS///FW. As much as I can support suggestive content, explicit stuff will be immediately deleted and if you make me uncomfortable I probably will block you. No hard feelings but Tumblr is an SFW place for me. If you see me reblog something not SFW, it was probably made by my friend or with previous discussion and proper mature labels for everything.
Can I send you a DM, not an ask?
After some not-very-pleasant experiences that made me uncomfortable, I closed my DM's for everyone except my mutuals. But you're still free to send me asks about anything(within reasonable limits ofc).
Can I write a fic based on your art? Can I use your ideas in my works?
About ideas - ask first. I can get protective over one idea but completely don't care about the other one. If I said yes, credit me as an original source.
Can I draw a fanart/write you a fic?
Of course!! I'm absolutely happy to see anything! Also please tag me when you're done. If it's one of my au's - use specific tags for fanart so even if dumb Tumblr doesn't send me your tag, I will eventually bump into it browsing the tag!<3 (you can also tag me again if you think I didn't see your fan work, I absolutely don't mind!!) Also, feel free to drop an ask with a link too!
Can I tag you in other stuff?
As I already said you can absolutely tag me for any type of fan content(it doesn't even need to be yours). Memes are fine too, just don't do it every day alright?
Why don’t you answer my ask?
It can be one of these reasons:
1. I want to answer your ask with an art piece/comic. It takes time.
2. Your question contains spoilers so I'm keeping it for later when the truth can be revealed =]
3. I'm busy. Yeah.
4. I've already answered something similar/I don't want to answer your question so your ask got deleted.
When will you continue working on [insert whatever]?
When I can. I'm not pausing my things just to spite you. Most of the time I'm just busy or I simply don't have the energy to do anything. To everyone who says stuff like "oh well we've been waiting for a few months already!!" - I'm not here to entertain you. I'm here to have fun and share it with other people and you're currently ruining it. I will block anyone who is doing this continuously.
Can you draw my characters?
For free? No, I don't accept requests like that. You can commission me though. When my commissions are open of course. I will open DMs when it happens.
What content are you okay/not okay with?
Admiring of any of these in real life: terrorism, racism, rape, war, sexism, misogyny, transphobia, homo/queerphobia, pedophilia, sex trafficking, mental illnesses. If the content tries to show how terrible these things are I am mostly okay with it.
Is there anything I should watch out for on your page?
Dark themes, suggestive themes, and sometimes negative ones. I'm not afraid to draw violence, blood and gore. Dark humour. In general, I don't recommend anyone who's under 16 to be here but it's always your responsibility for what you're about to see.
In your bio, it says russians DNI? Is it about every russian or only those who support the war?
I don't care if you're a good russian or not, I don't care about your opinions and worldview. I don't want you in here. I have no time nor desire to try and understand how good you are. As a Ukrainian, I have all the right to tell all russians and people who admire anything connected to them to go fuck yourself. It's my safe place and I don't feel safe with zz's in it. Do you feel like I'm being "too categorical"? Don't make it my problem and leave. End of conversation.
Even WITHOUT war context (which I actually huge and should NOT be ignored) this post explains pretty well why this boundary exists.
What is your stance on reposting your artwork/fics?
The only cases when I allow reposting are dubs/translations with credits and all the other rules that I mentioned earlier. In other cases, no, do not repost my artwork. Doesn’t matter if you credit, I said no.
I saw your art somewhere but I'm sure you weren't the one to post it.
I post on Tumblr and Tiktok, my nickname always contains "xitsen" in it. You also could possibly see the dubs of my stuff on YouTube, as I allow these. Please send me an ask with a link to the repost if it's somewhere else. I will try to solve the situation myself.
Can I use your work as a reference? Can I trace/copy it?
Reference? Yes. If it's very obvious - credit me too. Trace/copy? No. No. And no. It's straight-up stealing.
What pronouns do you use?
She/they. Please don't refer to me in masculine terms.
What art program(s) do you use? Drawing tablet? Brushes?
For art pieces 90% of the time it's Paint Tool Sai 2, sometimes Photoshop and Krita. For animations, it's rather Toon Boom Premium or Krita.
My tablet is fucking 6 years old, Wacom something. They don't sell these anymore so I couldn't even find the model lmao.
Brushes - standard SAI brushes, watercolour for shading and brush for line art. If it's textured I use my custom one, you can create it yourself if you use SAI.
Tumblr media
Don't mind the text quality please lmao. I literally had to copy it from Google for English translation. But the settings are mine yeah
Your "r" looks like "z"-
I know. Just let me be with my handwriting please lmao.
If you struggle with reading it this post with my alphabet can help you.
Why do you call [character] a whore??
It's an inside joke that suddenly became bigger than we expected. A silly, a funny, a goofy. It's not slut shaming if you thought it was. I love to joke about characters being whores in the most affectionate and lighthearted way possible even when the character clearly has no bitches. It even doesn't need to be sexual. Just a hee-hee ha-ha.
Probably gonna update it in future because I'm fucking sure I forgor something.

heyooo I just started writing fan fic and I really have no idea what I'm doing haha, can you explain how you draft and edit and write you long fics? i don't know what to do besides just starting at the beginning and writing to the end. (also sending this to multiple writiers so I can get lots of opinions)
Hi anon! I’m really flattered you’ve reached out <33
An amorphous list of advice from someone who has written over 300k words in under a year:
Make sure to note all your ideas for the fic down. You will not remember your plot twist thought up on the walk home in a few hours - *write it down!* It could be gushing to a friend about it or a notepad or whatever - and then make sure to compile it wherever you’re keeping your ideas for that fic. 
Be kind to yourself! Sometimes it takes weeks or months to write a scene the way you want it - maybe you aren’t inspired, maybe you can’t get it to Work, maybe, maybe - don’t beat yourself up about it. It’s art. There is no timeline. 
Likewise, if you’re new: I’d really recommend against a longfic! Do some oneshots first - seeing a work to completion and posting it will really help your confidence. A longfic is a long commitment, and if you end up changing plans or abandoning it it can be very discouraging for you to have that incomplete work be one of your first. It’s like training for a marathon :D
Get a bullet point list if you can of scenes you want to do or information/things that need to happen for those scenes to make sense. Even if you don’t have the details - I have the note ‘they find Tary in hell, because he overheard them and thought it was an adventurous place to be’ in my main fic doc. I didn’t know *how* they were going to meet him, or under what context, and figured that out as I wrote. You don’t need to break it up by chapter, just timeline. 
Speaking of timeline, here’s a neat trick: muse is a fickle thing, you don’t *have* to trudge through content you don’t want to write to get to the good stuff. I usually prefer to - I like having the full emotional context for scenes clear in my head - but when writer’s block gets me I’ll often jump to self indulgent writing something fun I’ve wanted to get to. You can always go back and edit things and add in a scene later, so long as you haven’t posted yet…
… which is why I strongly, strongly, strongly recommend having a buffer when you can, or at least letting a chapter sit overnight while you sleep on it. I get the urge to post something you just made, hot off the press, but you would not believe the number of typos or inconsistencies I find after reading things over with fresh eyes. This is true for both oneshots and longfics - the chapters y’all are seeing for Two for joy were mostly complete around November during NaNoWriMo! It also means you have room to go back and edit things - if you stumble on a cool plot twist you can foreshadow it more effectively, or if a character arc changed in ways you didn’t expect you can lay more groundwork for it. It’s less stressful knowing that if gradschool goes to hell I’ve got… hang on… 13 weeks of wiggle room while still keeping to my schedule. And even if it did run out - this is free content, people would understand if I went on hiatus for a bit. You have all the time in the world - use it!
BUT, in a similar vein, feedback and encouragement are super important to keeping your muse up. Which is why I strongly recommend having a friend or two in fandom you can bombard with snippets and spoilers and ideas! One for sorrow / Two for joy would likely have sputtered and fizzled out without @rightpastnowhere, @katia-dreamer, @burr-ell, @essayofthoughts, @romeoandjulietyouwish - and the fandom community I found early on that were so excited for the fic! Engage with your commenters, they can make for really great friends, betas and/or tormented souls when you offhand chuck your most evil plot twists at them >:D 
Remember that fanfic is supposed to be fun. You’re having fun. You’re writing, for free. I’ve mostly written for Critical Role as a fandom, but I promise you it’s not as scary as you might think it is. I haven’t gotten a single nasty comment or anon yet, despite, uhhhh, breaking up my OTP and piling angst galore on people (and making Vax trans). By in large, it's a supportive space - but don't be afraid to curate it to your needs. Writing is for you and whatever you want to get out of it: validation for your ideas/HCs/skill, new friendships and a sense of community, improving your own skill, self-indulgent things you want to see in fiction, working through trauma, hella hot porn, etc. We’re all allowed to look to fic for different things, If it stops being what you need, if it feels like work, like a chore? You can drop it. 
Hope this was of some help!

Omg hey, I just discovered your blog and I have fallen in love. Another goyuu fan in the non JPN fandom!! I'm so happy!
Anyways, I just saw your post asking for ideas/trope and it's been a little while so I'm not too sure if it's still open. Any case, just sharing one of my favourite that's been living in my head rent free for years: Haunted AU or Cursed AU. Gojo/Yuuji turning into a ghost/curse after death and haunting their living counterpart.
Sidenote: Are you an anime only or are you ok with manga spoilers?
hello!! glad to see fellow fans and make more goyuu friends!! they're just so cute and hot together it's insane <3
and yeah! i'm all for hearing what ideas people have~ of course, i'll end up deciding myself if i wanna draw one or nah, but i'm always open for discussions and headcanons in general, because that's how we can connect as a goyuu community better!! <3
no lie, like curse!gojo aus are very *chef's kiss*. because like imagine being that. just strongest of them all, feared by everyone, and then in comes a soft boy, with pink hair and the sun in his eyes, and you just get wrapped around their finger like.
and if they both are curses and haunting their counterparts, that just sounds chaotic and interesting!! like man. whoah. couldn't even imagine what kind of shenanigans could start up...!
I read the manga, but I also follow the anime. I'm not like fully caught up with the manga at the moment, but I do know what's going on. haven't had time to read due to work and what not so that's meh. I'm mostly rolling around on twitter and ao3 and enjoying the amazing art and fics people are writing!
but man. that one chapter? it hurt me so bad. like gege why. fucking unbelievable. good thing one can ignore canon and just be like: nah, that didn't happen. instead goyuu married and are happy together, thank you very much!
thank you for sending in an ask! <3 @yuu33

Doraemon Movie Review: Nobita in the Wan-Nyan Spacetime Odyssey (2004)
What is Doraemon? The title character of the Doraemon manga and anime is a blue robotic cat from the 22nd Century who keeps an array of high-tech gadgets in a portable pocket dimension on his belly, and has traveled from the future to improve the fortunes of a hapless schoolboy named Nobita. Although relatively obscure in the English-speaking world, Doraemon is a Mickey-Mouse-level cultural icon in East Asia (and some other regions, too). The Doraemon franchise was a big part of my childhood, and there are still elements of it that I enjoy now.
Doraemon has released theatrical films almost annually since 1980, most of which involve Nobita and his friends (kind Shizuka, brash Gian, and crafty Suneo) getting swept into adventures thanks to Doraemon's gadgets. Despite being of potentially broad appeal to fans of science fiction and animated films, there are very few English reviews of the Doraemon movies, so I'm embarking on a project to write about all the films that have come out so far. Good luck to me…
Tumblr media
Movie premise: Nobita does something about the local stray problem by sending abandoned dogs and cats to a safe haven 300 million years ago. The stray animals then start their own civilization.
My spoiler-free take: This film contains the right elements to be a great Doraemon movie, but has room for improvement in the handling of its story.
POTENTIAL SPOILERS AFTER THIS POINT
Review: This movie is a landmark, being the last film to come out of the classic Doraemon anime that started in 1979. All the remaining Doraemon movies from here on out were (and will be) released following the 2005 anime reboot.
Befitting the old anime series’ final cinematic hurrah, this film has an interesting art style that almost seems “transitional” between the visuals used for most of the classic series and those of the reboot series. There’s no other Doraemon movie that looks quite like it.
The storyline of Nobita in the Wan-Nyan Spacetime Odyssey has many ingredients that could make a great Doraemon movie: there are time travel shenanigans, emotional connections between the protagonists and movie-exclusive characters, and decent action sequences with creative application of gadgets. However, I thought that the execution of the story was not as fluent as it could have been. There are times when the plot simply moves too fast, leaving little time for major developments to sink in, and the reveal that Sharmee, a cat idol singer who Doraemon falls in love with, was working with the villain would have been more impactful had it not been shown to the audience before being made known to Doraemon.
In addition, the characters make a few strange decisions in the name of plot convenience. For example, at one point most of the protagonists and their allies escape from the villain’s base while knowing that Doraemon is still imprisoned inside, but only decide to go rescue Doraemon after they’ve already left the base. Luckily for them, the villain chooses that very moment to leave the base himself in his time machine, bringing the captive Doraemon with him, which saves the heroes the trouble of having to go back inside. What are the odds?
Also, Doraemon’s romantic subplot with Sharmee felt awkward considering that he was shown going on a date with his girlfriend in the beginning of the movie. (His girlfriend is a regular house cat, if you’re wondering.)
On a different note, it was hard for me not to feel a sense of wistfulness as this movie ended, not so much because of the content of the film itself, but due to its status as one of the last works from the 1979 series, which was the Doraemon anime I grew up with. I think the main voice actors on the current Doraemon anime are excellent, but this movie made me realize how much I’m going to miss the old voice cast.
It’s wild to think about how long this franchise has been going. A child who was the same age as Nobita and his classmates when the first Doraemon movie was released would have been 34 by the time this one came around! And though there has been a changing of the guard, this remarkable robot cat and his friends show no signs of stopping anytime soon.

Tag list below the cut:

I try to tag: fl spoilers, es spoilers, hd spoilers, lf spoilers, bal spoilers, hd spoilers, railway spoilers, nemesis spoilers, smen spoilers, irem spoilers, city in silver spoilers. But be aware I can’t catch everything and this is not a spoiler free blog. I post mature content from time to time, typically tagged with #suggestive.
I tag #sskies playthrough for my liveblogging of the game and #lore discussion for deeper analysis of the games.
For the periodic negative rambling, I also tag #fl crit, #fl negative, #anti smen, #motr response, #motr crit if you want to filter those.
More random/personal things are tagged as: #from the desk of R or #disability tag. Stuff made in cahoots with Prophet is tagged with #two of them and/or #my step blorbos. Check #meme archive or #bad post sunday for funny times.
A little more about me:
I started playing Fallen London in December of 2020 after being recommended to it by a friend, and since that day it has consumed my waking thoughts. I’ve done more or less everything in the game to this point: Railway, Discordance, SMEN, Paramount, Irem. I have played all the ambitions except Light Fingers, but I don’t intend to do that one, though I have friends who told me the whole story minus the triggering parts lol. I’ve finished all four ambitions in Sunless Skies. Don't intend to play Sunless Sea. Still working my way through Mask of the Rose... I wasn't a huge fan of it lol.
I love the Calendar Council/Revolutionaries and I play Black on the chessboard. At the same time, I love the Masters because I love villains and I love bats. The Masters are scary powerful, the Masters are cartoonishly evil, the Masters are fluffye, the Masters are comically incompetent clowns, etc etc. In addition to Fallen London, I love math, literature, and history. Looking at social issues in fiction is important and interesting to me. I'm so very gay for space.
Here’s my first OC introduction post for the archives, although it’s quite outdated at this point.
A final note:
By nature, this blog is an inclusive space. No sort of bigotry or harassment is tolerated here, nor is any sort of “fandom discourse.” I’m too tired for that. It isn’t anyone’s business what fiction someone consumes in their personal time, and it’s your responsibility to avoid content you don’t want to see, and that’s the end of the argument.

how long have you been writing and how was it when you first starting writing?
I feel like I’ve always wrote in some form I’ve always enjoyed creating stories and characters and stuff. I wrote a god awful book in my early teens and then I wrote a slightly better (still atrocious) YA novel when I was 16 I think?
And I stopped for a while but I always had phases of being like Omg I’m in the mood to write a story. So I’d start something on a whim and then give up when I got bored.
I didn’t realise fan fiction was actually a huge thing until i made my old blog back in 2021. I just joined to look at spoilers and art and memes and then I started seeing fics and headcanons and stuff and I was HOOKED. Literally spent days reading and doing nothing else (I think we’ve all been there LOL).
And then I just had a thought like, maybe I should try this? So I wrote my first few fics and they flopped but I had so much fun. I was writing CONSTANTLY back in 2021 so my skill and style changed and improved with each piece and my blog grew quite quickly. But I got really burnt out and sort of fell out of love with it and didn’t post as frequently so when my followers weren’t really around anymore and my work flopped I felt really disheartened and fell out of love with it again.
I’m so so glad I moved here bc that pressure is just totally gone. There are no expectations and obviously nowhere near as many followers as I used to have so I feel so free to just write whatever I want and not really care if it performs well or not. Obviously I feel happy and prideful when it does do well, but I expect the nothing anymore. Tumblr is hard to navigate and know how to succeed on so I just feel better knowing I can write anything I like and feel happy enough to share with you all. Everyone’s been so sweet and supportive and I’m definitely really grateful!
Even back when I first started writing though I was so fuelled by feedback. I used to love sending new chapters of my novels to my friends and hearing how excited they were and stuff, and it’s the same now! Hearing what people like and enjoy and makes them kick their feet in excitement makes me so happy hehehe 💕 sorry for rambling, this was a very sweet ask thank you 🥺

Media Recommendations #44 - A New Start
Tumblr media
Friday 20/01/23
Contents
Lycoris Recoil
Pokemon Scarlet
Thanks to school holidays it has been a really slow start to my year. Haven't committed to any hobbies that seriously, creating art has been sparse considering the free time I have, and I haven't dug into a whole lot of media. But it's OK to take it at whatever pace. Just do you.
In terms of this blog, this is a project i have no intention of giving up this year, and i apologise anyone who's followed me and is disappointed with the lack of articles. As I sit down to write this article now, I am committing to not worry so much about how good my writing is, and just write. Today I am recommending an anime and a videogame. And for my sake and yours, I will try and probably fail to make these recommendations short.
Lycoris Recoil
A-1 Pictures / Spider Lily
Tumblr media
Flipping through my recommendations on this blog and you'll definitely see I have recurring tastes when it comes to anime. I love a good slice of life, and I'm a fan of flashy action, and some notable faves of mine, namely Spy x Family and Sakamoto Days, blend the two together. Lycoris Recoil is another gem in the same vein.
The series is set in a fictional version of Japan where all crime is closely monitored, prevented and covered up by secret organisations of able bodied youth. One such organisation is the Lycoris, spies and assassins that patrol city streets disguised as highschoolers. We follow Takina Inoue, who, due to a lapse of judgement in the field, has been transferred out of HQ to work alongside Chisato Nishikigi, a somewhat unorthodox agent who's CQC and firearm skills are unparalleled.
Tumblr media
The two girls work in a Café named Lyco Reco as a cover, and when a job comes up, their handler, who is also the Café's manager, sends them into the field. Takina starts her new position with the same cold and calculating attitude that was drilled into her by HQ, but Chisato takes a more positive and hopeful outlook on life.
Tumblr media
Chisato impresses on Takina the importance of caring for everyone in the city, and that goes beyond silencing criminals with a gun. It means helping people across the street, delivering sweets, doing errands, and just making life easier in general. Chisato even extends this kindness to opponents in her operations, making sure nobody dies. Everyone has a life, family, friends, and the right to a happy life, and this begins to change how Takina sees her role as a Lycoris.
Tumblr media
I won't go on any further for fear of spoilers, but Lycoris Recoil is a really good gun and martial arts action anime, but also a sweet slice of life about seeing the beauty in caring for others. If my recommendation has your attention, give it a watch.
Pokemon Scarlet / Violet
The Pokemon Company/Game Freak
Tumblr media
I know I'm very late on the bandwagon here, but I had been putting off getting the newest Pokémon game for a while, and only finished my playthrough a week or so ago. Why that is will colour how I'm approaching this review, so before I proceed:
I am a jaded pokemon fan who has been playing for a long time and has found the series to have lost some of its spark. My distaste of the newer generations is made of mostly petty reasons, and I wholly understand at 27, I am not the target audience anymore.
So what did I think? I think Generation 9 of Pokémon is definitely a turn in the right direction. If you have been living under a rock and don't know what this series is about, here's a brief sell:
You play the role of a Pokémon Trainer, one who collects and battles creatures called Pokémon. It is a turn based RPG, where the party is made of 6 Pokemon you catch or trade and can customise on the fly. The aim of the game is to either catch and catalogue every Pokémon available in the game or make a team strong enough to become a Champion, a true master of battle.
At its core, the game does nothing different, in fact, one of the points I praised about Pokémon Legends Arceus (working on the Pokédex), has regressed. But as Reggie Fils-Aime once said: "The game... is fun."
Tumblr media
What is different at is core is freedom. Pokemon Sword/Shield gave us a taste of the concept and failed, but Pokémon SV (after a brief opening section) gives the player the entire region to explore right at the beginning. And instead of the one main progression of the old games (gym battles), there are instead 3 campaigns to complete, in any order if you are daring enough. 1 is the Pokémon League (the gym challenge), 2 is Team Star, a group of troublemakers who need lessons taught, and 3 is the Titan Pokémon and Herba Mystica, a quest to battle bosses and grow your Ride Pokemon.
Tumblr media
This Ride Pokemon is the other main draw to the game, a Lizard Motorbike Legendary (Koraidon for Scarlet, Miraidon for Violet) who you don't actually get to use in battle until much later, but serves the role of fast transportation. While each of the three questlines can be done whenever, I'd argue the Herba Mystica line is most important because finding these Herbs gives new abilities to your Lizard bike. Swimming, Gliding, Higher Jumps, and climbing on Walls are locked behind these Herbs. I think having to unlock the abilities over time is good, but it means the other campaigns are less important by association.
Tumblr media
The unspoken fourth quest, the Pokédex, is a lot bigger than in past games, but also a lot easier to finish. Like Legends Arceus, all encounterable Pokemon are just walking around, waiting to be walked into. Previously rare Pokémon can be found in large packs on the overworld, and Pokémon who are difficult to evolve can be found in their evolved forms, right alongside their prevolutions. I am undecided whether making the Pokédex more achievable is a good thing or not, but it sure makes it a different experience.
The game is never overly difficult, but challenging enough. You have the option of doing gyms and other challenges in any order, and while you may fight a couple a bit early by accident, level progression never felt too slow and i never needed to stop and grind, a good sign for an RPG. The true ending can not be experienced without the main three campaigns being completed. And for once, the story is good. It is emotional and satisfying to finish.
Tumblr media
So is this the worst Pokemon Generation? Hell no. Is it the best? I don't think so at all. I personally think Pokemon SV were better than Sun/Moon, and Sword/Shield, but it feels disappointing that Legends Arceus was such a highlight for the series for them to just attempt to go back. They did keep a lot of the better parts of Legends Arceus, but it's still not there. I enjoyed my time with Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, and if you like Pokémon games, it is an easy recommend.

Rules
Here are the rules of the blog! Please read these before submitting any asks!
Be respectful of others
I am caught up to the latest chapters and events on the JP server, so requests that contain spoilers are fine, but please state that your ask contains spoilers before writing your request. I know that there are EN server only fans that prefer not to be spoiled and I would really appreciate the extra step!
Please be patient with me! (I work at a bakery and do art commissions so my schedule is pretty packed)
Please limit any headcanon and scenario asks to 5 characters. If you’d like more than 5 characters, feel free to send them in multiple asks.
I’d prefer to keep this blog mainly character x reader so I’ll only be accepting character x reader requests unless specifically stated. Sorry about that! It’s just what I’m most comfortable with writing!
If you need me to do anything like tagging trigger warnings, please let me know! The last thing I want to do is make upset people. (Please be reasonable, though)
I will not write nsfw scenarios and headcanons for underaged characters.
Any asks that do not follow these rules will be deleted.
Matchups and Dorm Sorting
When submitting asks for matchups, please only submit information that you feel comfortable with sharing. Below, I’ve included a list of suggestions for what to include, but please don’t feel pressured to share anything you don’t want to.
Preferred name and/or age
Physical appearance (doesn’t matter too much, but it helps a bit if I’m stuck between two characters.
Personality (How do your friends describe you? What are your strengths and what are your weaknesses?)
Hobbies
If there are any specific groups of characters you’d like me to pick from, please tell me which ones. (Ex: Only third years, or Only Heartslabyul)
Matchups come with a Dorm sorting automatically, but if only want one or the other, please specify.

Terminal Velocity part 4
Series masterlist -please start here!
Themes: idol!verse, developing relationship, slice of life, fluff, angst, smut, includes first time for both, switch dynamics, difficulties of celebrity relationships, friendships with all members, reader from a foreign country
Warnings: negative self thoughts, anxiety, emotional distress, mentions of body image and weight insecurity, explicit sexual content, masturbation, handjob, vaginal fingering, oral sex (m & f receiving), unprotected sex, d/s dynamics, degradation, breeding kink, slight puppy play, rough sex, semi-public sex, physical altercation with minor injuries (not in relationship)
>>> Things are both radically different and surprisingly the same after you reveal your relationship with Chan.  Your day to day routine doesn’t change much; you continue going to work, writing stories and trying your hand at painting, and studying Korean when you can.  There was quite a reaction from a few of your coworkers who happened to be kpop fans, which led to you fielding a variety of questions, including “Is Felix’s voice really that deep,” “Can Jeongin beat Changbin in an arm wrestling contest,” and “Can I have Hwang Hyunjin’s number?”  It’s weird, finally being able to talk about having a boyfriend, to tell people all the sweet things Chan does for you and all the things you miss when you’re not with him.
You grow your relationship with Stay little by little, not wanting to intrude on their space with the boys.  But many of them seem to want to get to know you a bit, some sending you funny edits of Chan, some telling you about what they told the boys on their fanmeeting calls; and others showing love on the first of many photos you begin posting of you and Chan, taking full advantage of the freedom to post as many pictures from your gallery as you want.
Both of you keep each other updated on the little things happening in your lives.  You tell Chan about the art class you’ve begun taking at the local community center and ask him to please gather all the tips he can about working with watercolors from Hyunjin.  Chan starts taking a little more time for himself, getting caught up on a lot of pop culture things he’d missed out on recently, including one particular television craze that had everyone talking.  After hearing his plans to watch it and then getting no response to your texts for hours, you receive a phone call in the middle of the afternoon from your highly-excitable boyfriend.
“Y/n!!”
“Chan!!”
“I - … you - … you just let me watch this show without telling me anything and now I’m having an existential crisis at three in the morning!”
“So you finished Squid Game, huh?  Hey, you said you didn’t want any spoilers.”
“But - … ” he retorts, heaving an exasperated sigh, “... okay well now we need to talk about episode 6 and also about how if you put Seungmin and San together they could be Detective Junho’s long lost brother!”
“Oh my god, right?  I thought it was just me!”
The boys finally (finally!) get to hold a series of concerts in Australia, and you have never seen Chan more excited than when he sends you a picture of him and Felix holding an Australian flag outside the Sydney Airport.  You’re given a whirlwind facetime tour of Chan’s hometown and get to talk to his family for the first time when he visits them during the short bit of free time they have.  You’re out enjoying some late fall activities with your best friend and her boyfriend when you get an impromptu call from Chan to let you see Berry one last time before he heads back to Korea.
“Hey guys, give me just a sec,” you call over to your friends, stepping under a shady tree so you could see better.  “Berry!  Berrr-rrrry!  Hi girl!  Channie is going to miss seeing you sooo much when he goes home and so will I!”
“You bet I am,” he agrees, giving the pup a tight squeeze then sending her over to his mom.  “So, what are you up to today?”
“We’re just out at a park, might stop by this local place that has fresh apples.”
“Ugh, that sounds amazing,” he says dejectedly, “I wish I could be there with you more often.  I still haven’t gotten to meet any of your friends.”
“I know babe, but you will!  Right now you’re getting to see Stay in person again and do what you love on stage!”
“But I also love being with you.”
“Me too, baby.  But I’ll be back with you soon!  My flight’s next weekend!”
“And I’ll be here waiting with the biggest, most squishiest hug you’ve ever had!”
>>>
True to his word, you’re greeted at the dorm with a massive bear hug from Chan, followed by a veritable dog pile from the other members.  You’ve got a lowkey couple of days with them; one of the year end award show’s happening later in the week so they’re finishing up rehearsals and putting on the finishing touches.
You’re strolling through Olympic park with Chan at lunch time the next day, the late fall breeze crisp in the air.  You’ve been observing him in the studio all day, and convinced him to take a break and get some fresh air.  His large, warm hand holds your own, and you’re swinging his arm back and forth like you like to do to cheer yourself up, Chan picking up on your actions easily.
“Hey,” he says, pulling you to his chest and wrapping his arms around your waist, “are you feeling okay?  You’ve seemed preoccupied all day.”
“Yeah, I’m fine I just… ”  How can you say this without sounding completely conceited or jealous?  “I… I envy you sometimes.”
He cocks his head to the side, eyes widening slightly, more in disbelief than in anger, and you try to figure out how to explain what you’re feeling.  “I’m always in awe when I see you work, in the studio or on the stage.  I envy the passion you have, the fact that you had a dream and you chased it and haven’t stopped chasing it.  I’ve never felt like I knew what I wanted to do in life, and seeing you be able to create music, to do something so personal and impact so many people’s lives… well… sometimes, I wish I could do the same, to make some kind of meaningful contribution to the world.”
You feel like you’re being inconsiderate; you know his life doesn’t come easy, that it’s taken a toll on him in certain ways.  But your own principles, as well as your sense of vanity, make you want to be remembered for something, to make an impact on something bigger than yourself, and you wish you knew what you wanted that impact to be a long time ago.  You look up at him, his face still slightly puzzled and you regret trying to bring up this subject.  “I’m sorry I - … That didn’t really make any sense; I shouldn’t’ve said anything… ”
“Hey, hey, hey,” he says, sitting you both on a bench as you lean into his chest, sniffling slightly, “no, no it’s okay sweetheart; I’m not upset, I’m just a little surprised.”  He lets you settle your cheek on his shoulder, smoothing your hair and rubbing your back as he looks down at you.  “I guess I just never really thought of myself as making an impact, cause most of the time I just make songs that I like and throw them out into the world and hope other people will like them too.  But Stay do help me see that I’m bringing joy to some people at least.”
“And as for you,” he adds, tapping your nose lightly and resting his cheek on your head, “it’s perfectly okay to feel the way you feel, but there are two things you should remember.  First, you already contribute to this world, just by being in it.  And second, it’s okay that you haven’t always known what you wanted to do, or are still wondering even now; I might’ve always known what I wanted to do but I know I haven’t reached all of my goals yet.  So you’re not behind, or late, or unusual; you can start at any time.  And if you want to find a way to make an impact, I’ll always be here to support you,” he says, combing your hair behind your ear and cupping your face, “you hear me?”
“Yeah, yeah I do.  Thank you, baby.”
“You’re welcome, angel.”

For some reason you didn’t understand, Felix had asked him to help you with choreography for an upcoming SKZ-Player he wanted to release.  You tried to tell him your experience was limited, and also from many years ago, but he insisted, and you’d be lying if you said you weren’t enjoying it.
Felix picked Latch by Sam Smith, a favorite of yours as well; a song that you would often dance around to in the bathroom getting ready for work.  He told you he wanted to go for more of a traditional jazz vibe, so you’d been experimenting with some choreography at home and were walking through it with him now in the studio.
“I feel like yours looks a bit different than mine.”
“Bend your right knee slightly more,” you say, helping him adjust his posture to compensate.  “There, that should do it.”
Felix was getting the hang of things extremely quickly, as you knew he would.  Hyunjin and Jeongin were in the practice room as well, mainly to observe, offering moral support and resetting the audio whenever Felix wanted to run it again.
“Okay, I think you’re ready to do it on your own this time!” you announce, sliding your back up against the mirror next to Hyunjin.
“Oh no, come on Y/n noona, do it with me one more time, just so I can make sure I have it.”
The pout Felix gives you and the raised eyebrows of Hyunjin convince you quickly enough, and you’re so immersed in getting ready to perform the dance full out that you don’t notice the phone being held up at the front of the room, camera recording.
Felix is nailing every move from what you can see out of the corner of your eye while you dance beside him, having taken easily to learning the calypso, parallel pirouettes, and attitude turns you’d incorporated into the piece.  You try to emulate his power in the isolation section, having learned so much from watching and dancing with him and wanting to make the most of this time to practice your technique.  Your cheeks burn from how bright you’re smiling, the excited cheers of your friends off to the side and the sight of Felix’s equally happy face making you remember what you loved about dancing in the first place - how much joy it brought you to express through your movements.
You finish the routine and congratulate Felix on an incredible job, telling him he is going to kill it when he films for his SKZ-Player a couple days from now.  He has to run to a vocal lesson, and Jeongin’s stomach rumbles loudly just after Felix leaves, causing you to shove a couple won in Hyunjin’s hands and tell him to take himself and Innie for some dinner on the way back to the dorm.  You’ll be waiting for Chan to finish up for a while anyway.
With the space to yourself, you put your playlist on shuffle and start slowly moving around to the music.  When Khalid’s Better comes on you start to really lean in, beginning with a step-touch while snapping your fingers, eyes closing to let the music take you where it wants to.  At the chorus you find yourself swaying your hips sensually, running your hands along your body as you turn in place, wishing that you had a partner to be guiding your way.  You’re so immersed in what you’re doing, you don’t hear the light knock on the door or the creak as it opens to an unexpected guest.  Nearing the end of the song, you’re jumping around, sliding into a casual kick and step and finishing with a couple robotic isolations to the last few notes.
“That was quite a show, baby.”
You nearly jump out of your skin as you whirl to see your boyfriend leaning against the door frame.  “Jesus, Chris, you scared me!”  He smirks, remaining motionless as you walk over and give him a quick kiss before heading to turn off the music that had now shuffled to The Weeknd’s Take My Breath.  “You didn’t text me you were done; I would have come up by you, babe.”
He waves you off, then shoves his hands back in his pockets.  “It’s all good,” he says, his tone slightly clipped, like he’s controlling himself.  “I wanted to come see what you guys were up to anyway.  How’s the routine?”
“It’s amazing, actually, if I do say so myself.  It’s been so wonderful to dance again; I forgot how much I missed it.”  You glance over at him and are taken aback by the fact that he still hasn’t moved, eyes glued to you as you move about the room, straightening things up.  “If you’re looking for one of the boys, they just left.  Felix had his vocal lesson to get to, and Innie and Hyunjin went to get food.”
“So... they’re... not coming back?” he asks, crossing his legs and gazing at the floor.  You stare at him until he raises his eyes to meet yours, desire blazing through them, and the forced nonchalance of his behavior finally clicks.
“Oh, uh... nope,” you shake your head, voice as blissfully unaware as you can force, “I told them I’d take care of closing up the room.”
“Well, we have it booked for the rest of the day,” Chan says, stepping fully inside the door and slipping the shade down over the small window.  You hear the familiar sound of a lock clicking into place and mentally smirk to yourself.
“I wonder what we could possibly do to pass the time…” you respond wistfully, kicking your foot lazily, letting the sarcasm drip into your voice as you turn to face him with the most enticing expression you have, big naive eyes above a knowing, cat-like grin.
He stalks towards you, shaking his head.  “You think you can dance like that for me then act all innocent?”
“To be fair, I didn’t actually know I was dancing for you.”
“There’s no need to play hard to get, angel.  Besides,” he says, grabbing your hips and pulling you flush against him, “I know you’ve always wanted it.”
“Wanted what?”
“To do it,” he whispers, lips brushing against your ear, “here, in the practice room.”
You really have always wanted to, enamored with the idea of watching him fuck you senseless in a room full of mirrors.  But you’re in the mood to play with him a little today, and that also usually helps to bring out his more… aggressive side.  “Who said anything about me wanting to have sex in the practice room?”
His upper body pulls away from you slightly, and you look up to see his face schooled into that particular expression; the one every fan lost their minds over during the infamous online fanmeeting clip.  Eyebrows raised, chin tilted up... daring you to oppose him.
It used to make you weak in the knees.  Now it just makes you want to act up.
“You know that look doesn’t work on me, Christopher,” you say, pulling away from him and starting towards the door, hoping he takes the bait.  You’re abruptly pulled back, twisted in his arms until he has you in a proper hold facing the mirror, one hand around your waist, the other running up your chest to rest gently around your neck.
“Want to try again sweetheart?”
A beat of silence, a smirk on your lips, and then…
“You wish.”
You’re spun around again and shoved roughly against the mirror, wrists on either side of your head, held firmly in place by his strong grasp.
“So it’s going to be like that today, huh?”  He pauses, observing you.  “Color?”
“Green,” you answer immediately, casting your gaze downward, avoiding his eyes as you wait for what you know is coming next.
He nuzzles against your face and neck, surprisingly gentle.  “Hmm… so you don’t want my fingers in that tight pussy?  Rubbing your clit, tweaking your nipples?  Getting you ready to take my cock like a good girl?  Making sure you’re so wet, all I have to do is slip inside and you’ll be full to the brim?”
You like to act coy, like to rile him up and make him work for it.  But the second he starts voicing every dirty thought you’ve ever had about him, every fantasy you’ve ever wanted him to do to you, you find yourself instantly submissive, only wanting to be good for him.  To please him.
“N-No, no, I… I do,” you whimper, fearing he’ll leave you hanging without making your little game worth it.
“Good.  Then strip.”
You eagerly follow his command when he releases your arms, peeling off your sticky clothes.  Chan does the same, leaving on only his boxers.  He throws a sweat towel from the earlier practice down on the floor and pulls you down into his lap, back against his chest, then spreads your legs so they rest outside his own, keeping them apart.  “This okay?”
“Yes,” you whisper, appreciating that even during your rougher scenes, he never fails to check in with you.
He flicks his right index finger over your pert nipple, groping your other breast in his left hand.  You shiver slightly at the touch, arousal heightening the pleasure behind the pain.  You try to look away from your reflection, embarrassed by the sheer explicitness of it, but he grabs your jaw, turning you back towards the mirror.  “Look at you, my pretty girl, always so sensitive.”  He continues his ministrations until you’re squirming, forcing yourself to resist the urge to bat his hand away and bring it to where you really need it.
Finally, he moves his hands down between your thighs, holding open your folds with one while the other strokes long stripes up and down your wet core.  “Dripping wet already, such a needy baby,” he says, swirling his fingers over your clit and dipping them ever so slightly inside you, his touch bringing more anticipation than relief.  You lean your head back, shifting down and spreading your legs open further for him.  “Good girl,” he praises, kissing your temple as he pushes his fingers into you deeper, pressing up against your sensitive spot, making you jolt.  He raises his hand and spreads his fingers, showing you how you soaked them.  Then he parts his lips and licks them up and down, making you whine.
He looks down at where you’ve sunken into his chest, voice mocking.  “What?  You want a taste, too?”
You pout, eyes pleading, and open your mouth for him to plunge his fingers inside.
“Dirty whore wants all her holes filled, isn’t that right?”
You nod, sucking his fingers even further down your throat, urging him to pump them faster.  You’d rather be taking his cock, but you know better than to ask when he’s already being so giving.
“I think it’s time to see if your pussy is as greedy for me as your mouth,” he taunts, removing his fingers and allowing you to speak again, “wouldn’t you agree, baby?”
“Yes please,” you breathe out, letting him shift you up on your knees so you’re on all fours in front of him while he removes his underwear.  You’re so wet you’re nearly dripping onto the towel as he lines himself up behind you.  The scene depicted in the mirror is straight out of one of your fantasies; Chan’s big hands wrapping around your hips to pull you back onto just the tip of his hard length.  Even the slight stretch feels incredible, but just as you’re ready to feel him sink in more, he pulls away.  He continues this, teasing your hole over and over, never going any further, until you’re actively trying to fuck yourself back on his dick.  His strong grip stops your hips as he leans over you.  “You think you’ve been good enough to earn your reward, baby?”
You nod frantically, tears threatening to spill down your cheeks from how badly you need him.
“I don’t know…” he drawls, still hovering just millimeters away from where you need him.
A whine leaves your lips, followed by a weak, drawn out, “Baby… please…”
“How bad do you want it?” he grits out.
“So, s-so bad Channie.  Wanna be your little cum slut.”
He tightens his grip on your hips.  “Show me.  Beg for me.”
“Please, god, Chris… I-I need you,” you moan, voice strangled.  “Want you to fuck me hard and fast.  W-Want your cock so far up my cunt I can see your bulge from inside me, please baby.”
A carnal look like you’ve never seen before flashes across his face, setting you alight.  He lets out what can only be described as a growl, yanking you up off your arms so your back is flush against his chest, giving you the perfect view of the two of you in the mirror.  His hand wraps around your throat as he slams into you, burying himself fully on the first real thrust.  He’s animalistic as he takes you from behind, curling over you, hips furiously chasing yours, almost uncontrollable.
You lock gazes with him in the mirror as he pounds into you.  The lust in his eyes is intoxicating and you go even more pliant in his grasp, letting him use you for his pleasure.  But he isn’t the only one on the edge of falling apart, the angle he’s fucking you at hitting all the right spots and bringing you to your high faster than ever before.
“God, look how well your pussy swallows my cock, baby.  This fucking cunt was made for me.  Just like you, my perfect girl, you make me feel so good.”
You glance down at where your bodies connect, watch him move in and out of you mercilessly.  His hand on your waist wraps around the front of your body and he presses lightly on your abdomen, revealing the slight outline of his cock inside you.  The sight is so erotic that, without warning, you’re cumming around him, head falling back to his shoulder, your lips parting to let out a groan that slowly morphs into a nearly hysterical laugh as he continues to fuck you through your orgasm, every cell in your body screaming in ecstacy.  With one final thrust he spills inside you, the hot, white liquid filling you full.  You clench around him, milking every drop from his spent cock and relishing the sweet moans the overstimulation draws from him.
After you both regain your senses, Chan gingerly cleans you up, wrapping you in your sweats and his big hoodie.  He leads you down to the showers where you make quick work of washing up, your limbs tingling with that pleasant soreness still left coursing through you.  Time has slipped away from the both of you, and your phones are overflowing with messages from the members, asking where you are.  You book it back to the dorm, arriving home to the seven other boys all crowded around the TV in the living room, who immediately launch into an interrogation.
“There you are; you guys have been gone forever!”
“We were gonna send out a search party!”
“Yeah, what were you guys even doing?”
“We’re here, we’re here, calm down; what’s the big deal?” says Chan, clearly flustered from all the questions about what you and he had been up to, knowing full well you couldn’t really say what you’d been up to.
“We have something to show you!” says a very pleased looking Hyunjin, nodding at Felix, who taps the screen of his computer.  The TV springs to life and a recording starts playing, one that features a certain JYP practice room and two dancers… you and Felix.
You look at the three who’d been in the room with you, who had clearly all been in on this plot.  “This is why you made me run it with you again?!”
“I wanted to get at least one recording of us dancing it together,” says a mopey Felix in the seat closest to where you’re standing, worried by your reaction, milking his big puppy-dog eyes for all they’re worth, “you helped me so much and deserve to see how well it came out!”  You have to admit, it’s really sweet that he wanted to remember it with you, and you are pleasantly surprised with your performance so far.
“I… I guess it is pretty cool,” you say, squeezing his shoulder.  “Thank you Lix.  I had a lot of fun dancing with you.”
The other members have all been watching intently, whooping and clapping at the particularly standout parts of the choreography.  You feel Chan’s arms wrap around you, mouth whispering close to your ear.  “Felix is right, babe; you did a wonderful job with this.  And you haven’t lost your touch, either, you look great next to him.”
You blush at the compliments, even more so when the video ends and all the boys tell you they can’t wait to see the final product of yours and Felix’s hard work after his recording is done.
The sleepy feeling you felt after your earlier… activities… was back in full force, and it seemed it was for Chan as well.  After chatting a bit more, you both excuse yourselves to bed, slipping into your pajamas and washing up for the night.  As you’re sitting on the side of the bed, brushing through your hair, Chan looks at you from his dresser across the room, eyes gazing up from beneath his lowered brow.  “You know, I can’t deny… I’m a little jealous that you danced with Felix before me.”
Your hand stops mid brush, glancing up at him to see that his playful eyes match the lighthearted tone of voice he used, easing your fears that he really was upset.  You put down the brush, pulling one leg up on the bed so you can face him better.  “We’ve danced together plenty of times, baby.”
He pouts a bit more, hands crossing in front of him as he bounces cutely.  “Yeah but, not like real dancing.”
You move to stand in front of him, arms circling his neck.  “Well, I don’t believe you’ve ever asked me to dance with you, Christopher.”
He’s immediately back to confident Mr. Bang, having gotten you where he wanted with his cute behavior.  “Will you dance with me, Miss Y/n?”
“Absolutely.”
He takes your hand and positions you in a proper ballroom hold, his right hand coming to rest on your lower back.  You start moving in a circle, feet somehow finding an easy rhythm despite your lack of experience dancing this way.  Chan seems to have something in mind for what to do about music, his beautiful honey voice filling the quiet room.
“When marimba rhythm starts to play, dance with me, make me sway…”
“Oh a serenade as well,” you laugh, letting him bend you backwards in his arms, “what a gentleman.”  He brings you back up and continues to sing, despite both your giggles getting in the way.
“Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore, hold me close, sway me more…”
You rest your head on his shoulder, slowing down some, and his singing turns to a gentle hum, swaying with you back and forth.
“I’ll always dance with you, Bang Christopher Chan.”

The last day of your visit comes around too quickly, and you find yourself getting the most out of your last hours with Chan, resting across his lap while he works in the studio.  You’re twisting tiny curls into his hair when he suddenly sits up pin straight, hands flying across the keyboard.
“Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I almost forgot to show you this!”
“What is this mysterious project?” you ask, wrapping your arms around his neck and watching him sift through files on his computer.
“You’ll see; I don’t want to ruin the surprise!”
Finally he seems to find the one he’s looking for and tells you to close your eyes.  He pats his hands on the desk lightly in a drum roll, and you open your eyes to a Deadpool logo.  You stare at him eyes wide.
“No.  Way.”
“We’re making an OST for Deadpool 3.  Well, I shouldn’t say making; the track’s already done.  We just sent it off to the studio for approv- ”
“The track is done?!  Oh my god, can I hear it?!”
Chan laughs at your enthusiastic reaction, much like he had almost a year ago when you met him while he was on the exact trip that led him to this moment.  “Yeah, for sure, baby.”
The song is excellent, beyond anything you could have expected, and you’re so damn proud of him, of all the boys.
“They are going to love this, babe.  And so will the audience; it fits the brand so well.”
“I can’t believe it’s been this long in the making and it’s really going to happen.”
“You should be so proud of yourself, Chris.  I’m so proud of you,” you say, pulling him in for a deep kiss that you hope conveys all the love you have for this man.
>>>
It’s coming up on the last few days of December, having just passed the winter solstice.  You’re back at your family’s house for the holidays; you and Chan had talked about getting together but decided against it given his busy schedule and the possibility of bad weather interfering and such.
Just as you’re coming down the stairs on Christmas morning, having opened presents with everyone and gone back up to change, a knock sounds at your door.  Your family usually has a get together with your cousins and close family friends in the evening on Christmas Day, but no one was expected for quite a while.
“I got it!” you call back into the house, hoping to spare your mom the trouble of coming to the door.  Not bothering to look through the peephole, you swing open the door and your mouth drops open in shock.
“Hi angel; Merry Christmas!”
Chan’s standing at your door, bundled in a giant winter coat and wearing the biggest smile you’ve ever seen.  After your brain stops malfunctioning, you fling yourself into his arms, spluttering nonsense about what was he doing here, how did he even get here, what was he thinking coming all this way.
“Well, I got in touch with your mom and we planned to have me surprise you today!” he says, holding your shivering frame, too caught up in each other to think about going inside.
“Shouldn’t we have come to pick you up or something; how did you get here?!”
“Your dad offered to get me, but we thought it might ruin the surprise, so I just took a cab.”
“But what about your presents?!  I sent them a while back cause I didn’t want them to be late and - ”  You cut yourself off when your boyfriend holds up a giant shopping bag, containing all the gifts you’d sent him for your anniversay and Christmas, along with what you assume are his to give to you.
“Brought them with me!”  Chan starts to giggle at your astonished face, cupping your cheeks in his warm, gloved hands.  “We should go inside, baby; you’re gonna catch a cold out here.”
“Yes!  Inside!” you agree, grabbing him by the hand and dragging him into the house.  “Oh my god, you get to meet my family!”
Your family welcomes Chan with open arms, and soon he’s settled down next to you helping you put the finishing touches on a fantastical gingerbread house.
“You know this means we get to celebrate our anniversary in person, right?”
You glance up at him, giving him a confused smile.  “We already did that, baby.  It was perfect.”  It had been perfect, your facetime date complete with homemade dishes and a tense game of Uno.
“Okay, then we’ll re-celebrate it,” he says, pressing his face to your hair.  “I made some plans for us.  Something special.”
“Chris, you shouldn’t have - ”
“Ah, ah; I won’t hear any arguments against it!  We deserve something special for our first one,” he announces, squeezing you tight.  You sigh happily, shaking your head with a laugh.  This hopeless romantic.
Family and friends start arriving around dinner time.  Your heart is racing as you introduce Chan to each one, never having brought a boyfriend home to meet anyone in your family before.  Chan is his normal charismatic self, and fits in easily with everyone.  Your cousins accuse the two of you of cheating when you play a game where you have to match with your partner, and you tell them it’s not cheating, it’s just telepathy, sending Chan a wink.
After dinner, everyone disperses for more games and chatting.  Chan goes to grab you something to drink before you pick a spot to sit down, and while he’s out of your vicinity, the relatives swoop in.
“So, Chris, what do you do for a living?” you overhear your uncle ask Chan, sidling up to him in the kitchen and offering him a drink, which he declines.
“Oh, umm, I’m a musician.”
“Ahh, one of those starving artist types,” your uncle nods obliviously, Chan shooting you a knowing smirk.
“Yeah, something like that,” he responds.
“No way Dad; something like this!” comes a shout from near the TV where your mischievous younger cousin is standing; the cousin who you completely forgot is almost as into K-pop as you are and probably knew who Chan was the second they walked in.  Before you can stop them, the Thunderous music video is playing, Chan’s bright orange hair and bandage-wrapped abs on display.  He covers his face, not even attempting to turn it off, knowing the secret is out, and the rest of the party-goers gather around the screen to watch.  He trudges over to you, burying his face in your shoulder.
“Tell me when it’s over,” he pleads.
“Oh, stop it, drama queen,” you tease, rubbing his back with a laugh.  “You’re talented, babe; people are going to notice.”
“But why does it have to be when I’m in the room?”
After the video ends and you finally get everyone to stop accosting your boyfriend with questions about K-pop idols, you decide to head into the quieter part of the house, cuddling together with two mugs of hot chocolate.
“Sorry about that,” you sigh, rubbing your temples.
“It’s okay; I’m kinda used to it,” he says, rubbing your shoulder.  “But you know what I don’t think I’ll ever get used to?”
You look into his sparkling eyes, already knowing you feel the exact same about whatever he’s going to say.
“Getting to be here with you.”
>>>
To properly celebrate your anniversary, Chan booked a night for the two of you in one of the city’s fanciest hotels, one you’d only ever dreamed of staying at.  You told him you would have been happy with a cozy night at home, but he said there was no way he wasn’t going all out for your one year anniversary.  The weather had turned chilly that morning, and, along with the holiday atmosphere in the hotel, you’re thoroughly reminded of the day you first met each other, what feels like an eternity ago.
You have dinner reservations planned, but as impatient as you both are, you decide to give each other your gifts (well, the remaining ones you saved specially for your anniversary) as soon as you get to the room.  You’re both sitting cross-legged on the massive king sized bed, your suitcases on the floor to either side of it.  You each pull out a medium-sized rectangular package, the one for him wrapped in holiday-themed Deadpool paper you found at the craft store and yours in a sheet of the pretty purple hanji he’d saved from the roll he bought you all those months ago.
“I want you to open yours second,” you say, setting his gift to the side and opening your hands.
“Alright,” he agrees, handing over your delicately-wrapped present.  You run your fingers along the sides and from the indents you can tell it’s a book of some kind.  You gently ease the paper open and turn the notebook over in your hands.  It has a simple design on the cover, black with tiny purple and silver stars dotting the matte canvas.  Opening it to the first page, you see a date written in the top right hand corner that continues down into a long passage of text written in a familiar looping handwriting.  As you read, it begins to dawn on you where you recognize these words from, flipping through the pages to find more and more familiar phrases you know have left either your mouth or his.
“It’s a transcript of all of our voicemails so far,” he explains, the corners of his mouth turning up in a soft smile.  “We’ve said a lot of stuff in those messages that I don’t want to forget, and, well, our phones only have so much space in them so…”
“You… you wrote all of these down?” you ask, looking at him incredulously.  “Yours and mine, from…  from the beginning?”
“Yeah, I, well… one day my deleted folder of voicemails got too full and I had to clear them all out and I listened to all of yours one last time and knew I wanted to be able to hear them again or at least know what they said, so I wrote them all down and then anytime I would leave one for you I’d jot it down and copy it into the book when I got home and I just loved reading through it and - ”
You lean forward, cutting off his rambling with a tender kiss, careful not to fold any of the book's pages between you.  “This is the most wonderful gift I’ve ever been given.  You have no idea how much I hated getting rid of the old messages when my inbox got too full.  I can’t believe that you - … that I get to keep these because of you.  Thank you,” you whisper, pulling him in again for another kiss.  “Thank you, Chris.”
“You’re welcome, love,” he responds, nuzzling your noses together.  He leans back, clapping his hands together.  “My turn?” he smiles.
You’re a little nervous after the absolutely breathtaking gift he just gave you, but you place the package in his waiting hands.  He feels along the outside as you did, likely realizing it’s also a notebook of sorts.  Ripping the paper, he reveals the binder full of sheet protectors, each one containing an original work of fanart or writing and the personalized notes and letters from the creators to go along with them.
You explain while he turns over the pages gently one by one.  “I know you love watching Stay reactions, and you probably see a lot of art and writing inspired by you all online and stuff, but you can’t possibly see everything.  And you almost never get to hear the messages that people want to say to you along with the gifts.  How they want to tell you how much you mean to them and how you inspire them, bring them joy.  And you deserve to know that.”
He looks up from the book, tears forming in the corners of his eyes.  “How - … how did you…”
“I just, umm, collected some; had people send me things through Twitter and in the mail, so you can have them now.  And you can know how special you are… to them… to me.”
He breathes out a shaky breath and sets the book to the side.  You think for a moment you might have done something wrong but then his arms are wrapping tightly around you, pulling you into his lap and cradling your face against his chest.  “Thank you,” he murmurs.  “This is - … I - … I love this… I love you.”
“You’re welcome, angel,” you say, warmth filling your chest.  “I love you, too.”
Reluctantly, you release one another to get changed for dinner.  He looks stunning, clad in a simple black dress shirt and pants, collar slightly unbuttoned, leading you down the hallway by the hand.  You feel so comfortable in yourself when you’re with him, so confident; he brings out all the best parts of you, and all you want to do is look at him for the rest of your life.
You share a lovely dinner, toasting your anniversary and celebrating with a chocolate lava cake, one much more gaudy than the ones you shared in the summer but equally as enjoyable.  After your meal, you spend a few moments braving the cold on your dimly lit balcony, enjoying the beautiful nighttime view of the city skyline it offers.  Then you lead him inside, already beginning to unbutton his shirt before he has the door completely closed.
Once you’re both bare, he picks you up and holds you in his arms while he kisses you, knowing how much you love when he shows off his strength.  He turns and eases down on the edge of the bed, settling you over his lap, your legs on either side of his.  It reminds you of that first night you were intimate with each other, but unlike that night, there’s not a single ounce of nervousness in your body.  You are perfectly at home in his arms.  You rest your head on his shoulder, whispering in his ear.
“Make love to me, Chris.”
A thrill runs through you when he hums, effortlessly twisting with you in his grasp so you now lay underneath him.  You’ll never get used to this sight, his strong arms propping himself up over you, the way his eyes roam your face, your body, memorizing every inch.  As if somebody might take you away from him.  As if he doesn’t realize you are his and only his.
“I’m yours, angel.  From the first moment I met you, I’ve been yours,” you say, caressing his cheek.  He takes your palm in his hand, placing a tender kiss on your wrist, then traces more up your forearm to your shoulder, across your chest, and back down the other arm.  Your breath catches more and more with each one, his lips leaving an intoxicating sensation in their wake.
“Say it again… please…”
“I’m yours, baby,” you reply, feeling his lips move to the underside of your breast.  He takes a nipple into his mouth, teasing his tongue around the pert little bud, drawing a moan out of you, then makes his way downwards, gentle kisses placed along your sides, over your hips, at the very top of your aching core.
“Again…”
“I - … I’m yours, Chris,” you gasp out, feeling his mouth so close to where you need it.  He ghosts kisses over your thighs as he lays flat on his stomach, cupping his arms beneath your legs and bending his head down between them.  You hear his soft voice float up from between your thighs.
“You are mine.  And I am yours.  Forever.”
You relax into his touch, his thumbs rubbing soft circles against your thighs as his lips meet your swollen clit.  He alternates between laving his tongue between your folds and sucking on the bundle of nerves, pulling it into his mouth and kissing over the skin.  Three long fingers sink into your cunt, spreading it open, already dripping with how desperate you are for him.
“Fuck, you’re so wet,” he whispers, running his lips up your body again until his face is above your own.  “You ready for me, love?”
You nod feverishly, pulling him down for a kiss.  You can taste yourself on his lips, your mind heady with desire.  “Please, Chris… want you.  Want you to show me I’m yours.”
You capture his lips in another heated kiss as he enters you, the slight stretch and tightness of your walls around him dragging a moan out of you both.  He rocks his hips into you slowly, raising his head slightly so he can press kisses to your forehead.  You feel especially at ease tonight, the way his body is caging you in; the way all of him is at your fingertips, your mouth tracing along his collarbone, your hands threading through his hair, cupping his ass, pulling him into you.  He’s surrounding you, inside of you; everything is him, him, him.
The two of you were definitely on the same page about not wanting kids at the moment, maybe not wanting them at all.  But you also loved the intimacy, the commitment that was implied when you brought up the topic in the bedroom.  So you’re not surprised when you hear his next words, but they still send a pleasant warmth through your body, a pulse straight to your core, clenching around his cock buried deep inside you.
“… show everyone you’re mine.  Fill you up with my cum.  Watch you grow swollen with my baby; our baby, who’ll be as perfect as their mother.”
You let out a desperate whimper at his words, clutching him closer as he begins to roll his hips into you faster.  His face is pressed into your neck, kissing and nipping at the skin, the perfect angle for him to hear the filthy phrases falling from your lips.
“Does my pussy feel good around you, baby?  Love the way your cock fills me… only y-you have ever been inside me; can fuck a baby into me...”
“Fuck,” he groans lowly, wrapping one arm under your back, pulling your chest to him, the other hand reaching down to finger two of his digits over your clit, your voice becoming breathless.
“Make me yours, Chris… my perfect boy.”
The praise sends him over the edge, moaning your name while he fucks his cum into you.  His fingers don’t let up, rubbing your pussy raw until you convulse around him, your thighs shaking with the force of the orgasm.
You snuggle in the blankets after getting cleaned up, your head resting on his chest.
“I… uh… actually have one more thing to give you, Y/n.”
You sit up, a mock-indignant scoff accompanying the light pat you give to his chest.  “I knew you gave up far too easily when I made you give your present first.”
“I did, I did,” he laughs, conceding, “but, I think it’ll be worth it.  Can I show it to you now?”
The gentle sincerity in his voice makes your heart warm in your chest.  “I would love that.”
Grabbing his phone from the bedside table, he checks to make sure his earbuds are connected.  He places one in your ear and the other in his, hitting play on his phone, and tears spring to your eyes almost immediately.
It’s a recording of Chan singing a cover.  A cover of All of the Stars by Ed Sheeran.
From almost the very beginning of your relationship you’ve told Chan how much this song reminds you of you and him.  It’s by a favorite artist of you both, and tells the story of people falling in love even with physical and emotional distance between them, knowing eventually life will always lead them back together.  To hear him not only sing it, but sing it for you, has you trembling in his arms, clutching onto him as he holds you close, whispering how much he loves you.  Though every line brings emotion, the ones you’ve always loved the most sound the most beautiful to your ears sung in his voice.
I can hear your heart on the radio beat
They’re playing ‘Chasing Cars’ and I thought of us
Back to the time you were lying next to me
I looked across and fell in love
You lock eyes with him when the song ends, wiping the tears from his cheeks as he does to you.  You lean into his palm that stays holding your face, his touch and his voice leaving you breathless.
“I fell for you the moment I met you, Y/n.  I never stopped falling for you; and I never want to.  I love you, more than anything.”
“I love you, too.”

hello!
welcome to my pinned post! (not clickbait)
i'm loyal, i'm an adult and i go by they/them.
i'm also an Actual Anarchist and a writer! i love bees, chickens and homesteading. i have two kids so i talk about them sometimes! i'm around phil's age so, y'know... i'm a huge fan of techno, both cc and c!techno as well as philza and dream. i'm open to fans of everyone, even if we disagree, but i don't like negative posts about any content creator and that is a major factor in who i decide to follow. basically, i try to be as nice as possible but i do believe in 'kindness over niceness'.
🌻 read my fic about the syndicate and dream! 🐝
on this blog you'll find:
🐝 technoblade content! as well as all the members of the syndicate, dream, michael mcchill, and the occasional last life post. 🐝 lots of art! if you're an artist, especially for techno or phil, literally feel free to send me your art to reblog! i try very hard to reblog as much as i can! 🐝 my meta/writing posts! mostly about techno but i also touch on overall themes and c!dream as well 🐝 talk about my dsmp!sona as well as my friend's 🐝 liveblogging! i try to always tag my posts with 'dsmp spoilers' 🐝 posts about my own minecraft game! 🐝 personal posts where i ramble 🐝 talking about my 'dream heals with the syndicate' au
as far as characters/content creators other than techno, i'm really fond of niki, ponk, ranboo, tubbo, badboyhalo, antfrost, phil, michael, foolish, purpled, eret, and slimecicle! i also really like mr. goodtimeswithscar!
i don't dislike any character though i'm occasionally critical of c!sam's actions. i am critical of the fandom sometimes and i'm avidly against the prison/pandora's vault. it's a cool build but i'm a prison abolitionist. my real life anarchist ideals do impact my dsmp opinions but i make a point to acknowledge that the world of minecraft functions differently.
🌻 i don't like drama! please don't involve me in it, thank you <3 🌻 like/reblog spamming is perfectly okay! i actually love seeing it. <3 🌻 i don't/won't post anything negative about the content creators themselves and there isn't anyone i dislike. 🌻 my ask is always open for questions, whether about my opinions or about anarchism or anything else though please understand it might take me awhile to answer. 🌻 it's okay to reblog my posts to add on but try to be respectful/don't derail or be negative on post meant to be positive about a character. 🌻 if we're mutuals, i truly appreciate it if you tag 'mcc discourse' and posts with images of clowns. it's not a big deal but it does help me out! 🌻 feel free to message me just to chat!
a collection of loyal's greatest hits aka my favorite posts:
💛 technoblade & dehumanization 💛 kindness vs. niceness in the dsmp 💛 technoblade & kindness vs. niceness 💛 violence is the only universal language 💛 techno was used as a weapon but isn't one 💛 why justice on the dream smp fails 💛 post prison stream thoughts 💛 dream's healing from the pov of a child abuse victim 💛 technoblade & minimization 💛 cc!techno positivity 💛 'please stop using the term victim complex' 💛 techno & dream vs. dehumanization 💛 yes techno has questioned himself here's the clips 💛 no more angst! 💛 the dsmp & the concept of good vs. evil 💛 why dream being redeemed makes sense

GET TO KNOW ME TAG GAME
Before I start I would just like to say (tw alcohol for now and question 19) sorry for any spelling mistakes or if I ramble a little. To cut a long fuckin story short I mis read the measurements of my shot glasses and so instead of having two cocktails I’ve had the equivalent of four in the space of an hour and a half. Being british, im not gonna let a good drink go to waste either so im onto my third/sixth now.
Tagged by @clints-lucky-arrow (an actual goddess among us mortals)
1. Why did you choose your URL?
So this reason is two-fold. One, I didn’t watch star wars growing up because I was dumb and didn’t understand the politics (it wasn’t until my boyfriend sat me down and explained it literally in January of this year that I actually got it) but I loved Sci-fi and space so the next best thing was Treasure Planet (2003 film, Available on didney+) My favourite scene is the ending when Long John Silver (spoilers) is about leave before he can be arrested and Jim confronts him. Seeing how much his character has grown, Silver says to Jim, “Look at you, glowing like a silver fire. You’re something special, Jim. You’re gonna rattle the stars, you are.” It literally makes me tear up every single time I watch it and its one of my favourite lines of all time. Second, this was actually quoted in one of my favourite book series ‘Throne of glass’ by Sarah J Maas. I adore the character of Celeana and again one of my favourite quotes from TOG is when Queen Elena says to Celeana“ You could rattle the stars. You could do anything, if only you dared.” Every time I read that line I literally get chills and I actually have plans to get this tattooed on me lmao
2. Any side blogs?
Yes my fanfic blog @second-stars-totheright (I like puns and I used to love peter pan)
3. How long have you been on tumblr?
I joined when I was 13 for the fanfiction and lurked for a very long time, just reblogging and liking things until I deleted it when I was 17. Re downloaded the app and got my account back back around February of this year (when I was 19, now 20) and since then I’ve found it much friendlier and actually interacted with people this time around, and actually started posting my work on here!
4. Do you have a queueue tag?
No. This is my general postings blog so I just kind of stick anything funny or worth keeping here, but I probably should make one!
5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?
As I said to read fanfiction (anyone wondering it was 5 seconds of summer fanfiction. Anyone who judges me in the comments its fair game 🥺) but I re-downloaded it this year because I noticed with my work on Wattpad, while I had some do really well (one has gotten 130k+ views) its very difficult to actually interact with readers and get feedback. I’ve only accumulated that high of a number after 5 years of it being on there, and so tumblr is just so much more personal!
6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?
I did it this morning as I was getting tagged in this lmao. I wanted a cartoon girl who looked like me but because I had a specific colouring (ie my hair is black with a blonde streak at the front & my eyes have both blue and green segments because I have heterochromia) I couldn’t find any that looked like me so I recoloured a cartoon girl I found on pinterest.
7. Why did you choose you header?
The white clouds fit the stars theme and it looks pretty with the purple. ✨💜
8. Whats your post with the most notes?
“That girl is a problem | Javier Pena x Agent!Reader part 1” with 105 notes on my fanfic blog.
9. How many mutuals do you have?
I am still a little tumblr idiot when it comes to this so if someone could tell me how to find out I'll edit this
10. How many followers do you have?
72 on here, 107 on my fanfic blog (AND I LOVE ALL OF YOU ACROSS BOTH OF THEM MWAH, MWAH KISSES FOR YOU ALL 💜💜💜)
11. How many people do you follow?
165 (it was 700+ but the other day I unfollowed a bunch of accounts that haven’t been active since I followed them when I was 13. There were LOTS)
12. Have you ever made a shit post?
I mean all you have to do is look at the Nomad memes I make (UNAPOLOGETICALLY I might add 😤) for @clints-lucky-arrow to know I absolutely have. That series has a hold over me im telling you. I black out when I start reading and I awake with a bunch of meme editing apps open and my feelings tugged at from her amazing writing.
13. How often do you use Tumblr each day?
If I’m with my boyfriend which is like two days a week, rarely, but now I’ve finished uni, I’m on here all the god damn time. I feel so comfy and safe interacting with you all, not to mention some of you guys are funny as hell.
14. Did you have a fight with a blog once?
Not really on here, I haven’t received any hate luckily but I prefer not to spoil how comfy I am here with arguing.
15. How do you feel about ‘you need to re-blog this’ posts?
I’m a little confused by this I dunno whether I’ve just never come across any like this or if Stars is being a bimbo on the tl again. However, I only reblog things I’d like to keep for future reference or if something deserves to be shared to everyone else like a fic rec or a piece of art. (As Mack said, I’ve re-blogged so many in the past promising me money or luck and I am still broke as shit so what does that tell you).
16. Do you like tag games?
Yes!! I love reading everyone elses and getting to know my mutals better!
17. Do you like ask games?
Again yesss because it means I get to send love to my mutuals and get to know them better! I tend to not participate though just read their responses because I sometimes feel like I’m bugging people clogging their inboxes even though I know that’s the point idk I’m a hell of an over thinker sometimes 🥳
18. Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?
It’s been said before but @clints-lucky-arrow (wow you rlly owning this post bby girl) but I just remember lurking on Nomad early February and liking and reblogging her chapters so I could keep them to re-read cause that’s how much I instantly loved it and when she followed me I realised who she was and lowkey had a starstruck moment bcus id been ciaght up in her work for weeks and too nervous to make contact. Also @arduadastra, I saw her work all over the pedro tags for so long and now I’ve gotten to know her she is the sweetest girl!! We usually fan over Javier Pena gifs together, she’s solely responsible for ‘That girl is a problem’ bcus of her gif sending at 1am giving me Javi thots and now it’s my most successful one on my blog. And most recently @pedrosgirlx followed me this morning and her work is genuinely some of the best I've seen on here, as I said this morning it is the Sistine Chapel ceiling of Mando art it is actually jaw dropping!! I cant believe all these creators are rlly giving us this content for free and yet being so talented AND the nicest people I’ve ever met!!
19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?
No, although I hold a lot of them dearly as friends. 15/10 would treat you lovelies to a drink of your choice if we ever met (any of you from the uk who drink I’d get you a pitcher from Whetherspoons)
20. Absolutely no pressure tags:
anyone who wants to join! a lot of people I would have tagged have already posted theirs so go for it if you like the look of it!
