Anyway needless to say, college is showing me a whole slew of people who are using laptops in school for the first time and they're so bad at it. They're so bad at taking notes too. They're so bad at everything

I’m really glad that ao3 doesn’t have an actual pro-ai policy at the moment! I’m planning on doing some research on what Unseeliekey brought up just to at least understand what he’s talking about. I was honestly really confused and freaked out reading what he was saying. But yeah, I’m sad too. You’ve got the right to remain right here with me and it’s a little more fun when I’m with you are two of the fics that made me not only get pretty into Saiou but also made me more attached to DR and into reading fanfiction in general. And it’s just like really upsetting to see something that had that much of an effect on me be gone and know that not everyone who is in the fandom or will get into the fandom will be able to see that.
I also really hope that there’s some sort of way to glaze works too. Making stuff inaccessible to guests is always sad. When I first started reading fanfiction I was a guest and like a lot of people don’t use accounts for various reasons and it’s just sad to think about account locked stuff. And it would be so nice if the ais would just Not. Like why can’t they???? Why???
Anyway, right now I don’t think there’s any full proof, everyone will be able to be happy way to prevent the ai scraping but I’m sure you’ll figure something out that’ll be alright for at least what can be done at the moment. Your works are very cool. I really, really love them. They bring me lots of joy. Thank you for all the joy. It’s super awesome.
okay this is a REALLY long answer because i went on a whole rant so im going to cut this for people who are just scrolling normally. but also im totally going to put this into my pinned tag
a lot of what was said was like. Half true. my counterpoint to him saying that ao3 supports cp or rape or sexual assault is that no matter where you go on the internet, you will find shit like that. EVERYWHERE. ao3 doesnt support it i really seriously doubt that anyone outside of those spaces supports shit like that but ao3 is an ARCHIVE. and when you put things in the archive, you are allowed to submit whatever the fuck you want. setting rules on what could be put into the archive automatically means that other fics, which explore the topic in a critical, non-fetishistic way, are ALSO up to scrutiny. fics that explore the psyche of trauma victims? they might not be allowed. regular degular fetish content, no minors involved? completely up to scrutiny. im really not a fan of censorship OR some of the shit on the internet, but i can only control ONE THING and thats what i allow myself to see. i really dont like people saying that ao3 deserves to be taken down because of that because then that would mean twitter deserves to go down, social media as a whole deserves to go down, and just generally i dont trust people who push the "think of the CHILDREN" argument. you see republicans push that when theyre trying to ban trans or gay people out of existence so INSTANTLY alarm bells start going off in my head, not to imply that i think every single person who pushes that argument in this context is republican or right-wing. just bothers me and looks like a red flag
and to instantly get it out of the way im not involved in the fucking proship/anti discourse that whole distinction feels like destruction of critical thinking antis are often puritanicals and would kill me if they saw what i write in nameless and gasp at published books that delve into topics they think are off limits and many of the proshippers ive come across are weirdos who think that its totally normal to write romance between minors and adults in a positive light like its NORMAL and that we shouldnt think less of people who do that but fyi i am totally thinking less of people who do that and im totally thinking less of people who hate me for writing my unhealthy/toxic/abusive/codependent relationships that dont even fetishise those kinds of relationships like GET OVER IT!!!! BE NORMAL!!! GO OUTSIDE LICK A DOORKNOB KISS A GIRL DO SOMETHING!!!!!
if there is ever any advice i can give to people its to form your own opinions and dont try to put a strict solid label on your opinion because sometimes you will betray your label and youll think to yourself "am i even really that thing......." people are complex and hold many different opinions that sometimes contradict one another and thats fine. logic your shit out dont fall for charming little labels that pin you strictly on one side of an argument it makes you less likely to actually reach a point where you have a strong opinion that makes sense AND can compromise and thus bring someone more onto your side. forever
ANYWAY YEAH! i settled on making it so my osomatsu san fics go account only on the 20th and then also some of my older danganronpa single chapters go account only with them, but the multichapters im currently working on will go account only when theyre finished, with exceptions for when theres rumours going around of a scrape. makes me so oo oodofooafgofjgj mad GRRAAGGHGHGGHG
but thank you i am glad to bring joy to people's lives. readers and comments bring me a ton of joy and im glad that i can give that back to everyone ^_^ i seriously cannot thank readers and commenters enough like i never feel like i get it across well enough how grateful i am for everyone who reads my stories and gives me kudos and the people who comment like. it brings me so much joy that i cannot properly verbalise EVER

About High Guardian Spice
So, I have some thoughts after seeing a whole bunch of opinions of people who have seen the show. A lot good, a lot bad. And I figured I'd write down how I feel about it. I haven't watched it though, nor am I planning on watching it. As I refuse giving crunchyroll any money whatsoever.
I've seen a whole bunch of videos on the topic, and I have to say, a lot of them are repeating each other. "It's trash" "It's pandering" blah blah. Yes, I too am not too fond of the whole man hating down with cis mentality. I however have never been trans, so I can't put myself into that headshpace (even though the whole hating thing goes too far for me and I feel like these people need therapy) but with every critisism video of the show the whole arguement gets older and older. They're just repeating each other. The only ones that were honest and had a good well informed opinion were the clownfish people and the Vtuber Natalie with this video right here
I haven't seen the show, but from what I can tell it's a steven universe type show, that uses PNG assets from pexels.com. Though, it's not as terrible as some people make it out to be. It's I guess just a show that's not for me, and thats alright. I wasn't going to watch it anyway.
I'm not saying that people who complain about the show aren't valid. There are a lot of valid reasons to hate the show. Like I mentioned before, a show looking more like a Cartoon Network show shouldn't be on crunchyroll funded by money that people assumed wouldve gone to Japan. That's about my only gripe.
People are allowed to like High Guardian Spice too though. And I see a bunch of people on here who do. Which to that I say, more power to you. And if you havent seen it yet and do have a crunchyroll account, I guess give it a watch at least. It might be for you, it might not be.
I don't think HGS is an anime per sé. HGS fits more in the steven universe, adventure time, She-Ra corner. I do think anime can be defined as animation which it liturally is an abbreviation of, but when we're just going off of feel, its just not an anime at all. Anime is Japanese animation. if we're going by that definition it should either be derived from a japanese work, be animated and produced by a japanese studio, or be heavily inspired by anime to the point people are still debating wether it's anime or not (im looking at you, Avatar)
Crunchyroll shouldve invested in animation studios in Japan, who are already struggling to pay their workers properly. We all know that that industry is fucked. If only Crunchyroll did something about that, even a little bit.. but I digress
People always like to claim that Japanese media isn't queer enough. Even though we're living in a world with shows like Revolutionary Girl Utena for example. So it's kind of pretentious to claim that HGS is the first anime ever to welcome LGBT characters. Especially since there is no subtlety in it at all. It's shoved in your face as far as I can tell. I'd hate to use that sentence but I have to, tbh. I would love to see more representation. I'm queer myself. I'd love to see more demi or fully ace characters out there. There is a way to bring it, though. And HGS is too obnoxious about it as far as i can tell from the scenes that ive watched on youtube.
Okay that's it. I didnt expect it to become a full ass book size rant. I just have thoughts.
TLDR people gotta stop whining.

==>Vriska: Visit Dave.
((Long log RP where Dave and Vriska talk about things and just be generally cute. @1neffabl3))
[10:21] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] arrives almost exactly fifteen minutes later, appearifying with a bag of sweets to go with their coffee. She looks frustrated and tired, but gives him a smirk anyway when she steps from the platform. --
[10:21] AG: I got snacks.
[10:22] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] turns quickly towards the platform when the transportalizer goes off, giving Vriska a small smile. Two coffee cups in his hands, he walks towards her from the kitchen gesturing one at her. --
[10:22] TG: i see. thank you. i forgot about the snack part. got two cups of coffee. you need cream in yours?
[10:23] AG: I'll drink it str8 this time. What did you want to talk a8out?
[10:24] TG: i just wanted to talk in person about the the stuff that we talked about. like the me being real thing, and the dirk thing, and everything pretty much. i just wanted to see you, too.
[10:25] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] takes her coffee with a heavy sigh, sipping it while eyeing him over the rim of the cup. --
[10:25] AG: It's not that deep.
[10:25] AG: None of it is.
[10:27] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] takes a sip as well, then another, exhaling nervously after swallowing the coffee. --
[10:27] TG: i know its not /that/ deep, but i still just wanted to talk about it. im curious. i know curiosity kills the cat, but satisfaction will bring it right back.
[10:27] TG: im the cat in this situation.
[10:27] TG: did you talk about this whole thing with sollux?
[10:28] AG: No. I only warned him like I warned you.
[10:30] TG: about whats going on in a day?
[10:34] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] brushes by him with a nod, her lips pursed when she glances back at him after sitting down on the nearer couch. --
[10:34] AG: Dave that's also not that deep.
[10:34] AG: Your 8rother is an asshole and he's messed with the wrong person. I don't want you thinking I'm trying to white knight you or something.
[10:35] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] purses his lips together in return, taking another sip of his coffee and leaning against the kitchen counter with his elbows. --
[10:36] TG: its a little deep. youre putting your life at risk here, you know? i think thats pretty deep.
[10:36] AG: It's not!
[10:36] TG: i dont think youre trying to white knight me. i just feel bad as us being together was the instigator for the fight happening, and part of me feels guilty. but i already mentioned that.
[10:38] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] scoffs at his wording, rolling her eyes over her coffee cup again. --
[10:38] AG: Now you're looking too deeply into it.
[10:40] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] rolls his eyes back at her, taking another long sip from his cup. He opens his mouth to reply, pauses, and shuts it, mulling over some thoughts in his head. --
[10:40] TG: how am i looking to deep into this?
[10:42] AG: He pro8a8ly.
[10:42] AG: Thinks that this will 8e some grand gesture of how humans are 8etter than us to 8egin with.
[10:43] AG: He's pro8a8ly just using you as an excuse so he doesn't look 8ad over it.
[10:43] AG: He o8viously h8s us, Dave.
[10:44] TG: i know he does. he makes it very clear whenever you guys deign to step on his toes about anything. i dont know why. hes ranted about it before but i never know what to say, or how to reply. i always have the words fall out of my throat when he talks about that kind of stuff.
[10:44] TG: if it was some grand gesture though, i dont think hed use me for it.
[10:48] AG: You think he's actually 8rave enough to just kill one of us to prove a point?
[10:52] TG: i dont think he would, but he might fuck one of us up real bad.
[10:56] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] crosses her legs, the cup resting in her hands against her thigh. The only sounds from her for a while are the quiet taps of her claws against the stoneware as she tries to keep it together. --
[10:56] AG: Dave I... listen. I really sincerely think he plans on just killing me outright and if he does, I pro8a8ly had it coming for taking his 88. 8ut if he does I really don't want you to do anything stupid.
[10:56] AG: You have to make sure Sollux doesn't.
[10:58] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] furrows his eyebrows with a long sigh and finishes the rest of his coffee, setting the empty mug on the counter with a soft 'clink' of ceramic on marble. He hesitates for a brief moment before walking over and sitting on the couch next to Vriska. --
[10:58] TG: i dont know if he has the guts to kill you outright, though. has it been determined if youre allowed to use your abilities?
[10:58] TG: i wont do anything stupid.
[10:58] TG: ill try to stop sollux, but i dont know if ill be able to.
[11:01] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] looks at him for a moment before dropping her gaze to the cup. --
[11:01] AG: I won't use my powers 8ecause I don't need to.
[11:01] AG: I already called him a coward for hiding 8ehind his god tier.
[11:02] TG: his god tier is probably the only reason he thinks he can take you at all.
[11:09] AG: I don't know.
[11:09] AG: I haven't even talked to Nepeta a8out it yet.
[11:10] TG: i think you should at least tell her its going to happen.
[11:10] TG: is it tomorrow?
[11:10] AG: I think the day after tomorrow, since it happened this morning in earth time.
[11:13] TG: then id tell nepeta tomorrow, if you can.
[11:13] TG: she needs to know.
[11:14] AG: I know.
[11:14] AG: 8ut I don't want her getting angry with me.
[11:15] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] shrugs, her lips pursed again. --
[11:16] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] shrugs at her shrug, putting his hands on his knees afterwards and fiddling with the fabric of his jeans. --
[11:16] TG: i think shed be more angry if you didnt tell her, or told her at the last minute.
[11:16] TG: i know that she probably doesnt want you to fight, but if you told her why she might be more understanding.
[11:18] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] scoffs again, softly. This time more to herself. He can't see the frown tugging at her lips through the curtain of her hair but it's deep and full of pain. --
[11:18] AG: How could he say things a8out you like that?
[11:18] AG: Do you even care?
[11:22] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] eyebrows furrow deeper at her question. It took him by surprise, that's for sure. He takes a few moments to collect his thoughts, his brain whirring at a mile a minute. --
[11:22] TG: i think at this point im just used to it, thats all. it doesnt even register until its too late, and im already upset.
[11:25] AG: Fight 8ack.
[11:25] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] speaks the words softly, almost nothing but a whisper. --
[11:29] TG: how? with words? with phsyical fighting?
[11:30] TG: im weak, vriska. dirk knows exactly what buttons to push to make me back off. i can try to fight back though ive just.
[11:30] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] pauses, closing his eyes thoughtfully. --
[11:30] TG: never thought about it.
[11:32] AG: You aren't weak, stupid.
[11:32] AG: Don't 8e a coward.
[11:32] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] looks up finally, glaring at him. --
[11:32] AG: I don't fall for cowards.
[11:36] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] falls silent at her words, eyes wide. --
[11:36] TG: fall for?
[11:39] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] clicks her tongue, standing suddenly. --
[11:39] AG: It's not that deep.
[11:39] TG: i know its not that deep but. just surprised.
[11:39] TG: i wont be a coward anymore.
[11:40] AG: Stand up to him then! Tell him you're pissed a8out what he said!
[11:41] TG: now?
[11:41] AG: Whenever.
[11:41] TG: soon.
[11:41] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] sighs. --
[11:42] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] looks over at Vriska with a worried look. He clasps his hands together and wrings them anxiously. --
[11:42] TG: i. in the morning.
[11:42] TG: i promise.
[11:42] AG: Don't do it for me. Do it for yourself.
[11:42] TG: im doing it for myself.
[11:43] TG: youve just given me the kick in the ass to do it.
[11:43] AG: Good!!!!!!!!
[11:43] TG: im. sorry.
[11:43] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] sighs. --
[11:45] AG: For what now?
[11:45] TG: im sorry for being like this tonight. i dont mean to be like this. im nervous about confronting him (as i always am), im nervous for YOU, im nervous about a lot of things. i just. can you stay the night tonight? you dont have to if you have things to do.
[11:49] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] blinks, her arms crossing under her chest. --
[11:49] AG: If you want me to I will. For as long as I can at least.
[11:50] TG: i do want you to. thats why i asked, silly.
[11:50] TG: you dont mind?
[11:50] AG: Nah. It 8eats sitting around in my quarters stewing all light.
[11:50] AG: Just.
[11:50] TG: you can instead stew here, with me.
[11:50] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] looks him in the eyes with a steady gaze. --
[11:51] AG: Don't read into it too much, okay?
[11:51] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] returns her stare, nodding at her request. --
[11:51] TG: i wont read into it at all. pinky promise.
[11:52] AG: Okay good. I wouldn't want you getting too attached right 8efore I might not 8e around anymore.
[11:53] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] smiles slightly, moving to sit right beside him. --
[11:53] TG: i mean, it might be too late for that, considering im asking you to stay and keep me company, but dont read into that too much, alright?
[11:53] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] returns her smile with one of his own, reaching up and freeing his hair from his ponytail, shaking it free. --
[11:58] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] chuckles softly, leaning over to wrap her arms around him tightly. --
[11:58] AG: I hope it isn't too l8.
[11:58] TG: too l8 for what?
[11:58] AG: Attachment.
[12:00] TG: i hope its not either.
[12:00] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] tentatively places a tiny kiss on her forehead. very tentatively! --
[12:01] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] glances up at him, a sincere smile stretched across her lips. He should consider himself lucky, being one of three people to have ever seen it. --
[12:05] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] smiles back when her smile stretches across her face. She looks absolutely radiant. His cheeks are tinted a subtle red in the dim light of his apartment. He places another kiss on her forehead, firmer this time. --
[12:09] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] laughs softly, reaching up to poke his nose. --
[12:09] AG: 8y the way.
[12:09] AG: You're too warm.
[12:14] TG: you like how warm i am. im like a sexy version of a hot water bottle.
[12:14] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] kisses the tip of her nose at her poking his! --
[12:19] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] rolls her eyes, shoving him away without much force behind it. --
[12:19] AG: Don't get ahead of yourself.
[12:20] TG: ahead of myself how! why are you booing me. im right! im the sexiest water bottle youll ever meet.
[12:20] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] winks! --
[12:20] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] scoffs loudly, throwing herself against the couch with a groan. --
[12:20] AG: Oh gr8, now he's putting on airs.
[12:21] TG: me? put on airs? how very unexpected! theres an impostor in the house.
[12:22] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] continues winking before breaking off into a fit of laughter. --
[12:27] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] groans as she slides off the couch onto the floor, acting as if she's dying from his antics. --
[12:27] AG: Gross, you're too much. I take it 8ack I'm going 8ack to the ship.
[12:27] TG: no you arent. my antics are just enough for you. this is the perfect primetime entertainment to fill up your night.
[12:28] AG: Oh no, I'm getting up as soon as I can gather the strength to go.
[12:28] TG: the strength?
[12:30] AG: I'm dying.
[12:30] TG: of?
[12:31] AG: Em8arrassment.
[12:31] TG: embarrassed? of what? how charming and wonderful and cool i am?
[12:31] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] slides down from the couch next to Vriska, running his hand through his hair with a smile. --
[12:32] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] pouts at him. --
[12:32] AG: You keep saying words I just can't quite understand.
[12:33] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] sneaks a quick kiss on her cheek. --
[12:34] TG: what words would you understand to convey how cool i am?
[12:36] AG: Ones usually starting with an N and ending in erd.
[12:37] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] plants her hand on his face, pushing him away gently. --
[12:37] TG: you cant trick me. that just means nerd!
[12:38] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] pushes him even farther. --
[12:38] AG: Exactly.
[12:39] TG: hey.
[12:39] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] blinks in surprise. --
[12:39] TG: did i say something wrong?
[12:47] AG: No you're just 8eing a huge nerd.
[12:48] TG: YOURE being a huge nerd. its huge nerd city right now, population us.
[12:48] AG: I shouldn't have 8een counted in this census.
[12:49] TG: you did because youre just as big a nerd as i am, if not bigger. our nerd auras rival each other in strength every day.
[12:50] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] groans again, hiding her face in her hands. --
[12:50] AG: Em8arrassing...
[12:52] TG: it isnt. no need to be embarrassed. youre among friends and fellow nerds.
[12:53] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] extends a hand out for her to take, if she'd like. --
[12:54] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] grumbles, taking it with a devious expression playing around her lips. --
[12:55] AG: Well if you say so.
[12:56] TG: whats that look for?
[12:56] AG: What look?
[12:56] TG: that look!
[12:57] AG: This is my regular face.
[12:58] TG: your regular face isnt as devious as this one.
[12:58] AG: So you say.
[12:59] TG: i do say! what are you planning, vriska?
[12:59] AG: Nothing!
[12:59] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] stands up, brushing herself off. --
[12:59] AG: Why do you think I have something planned?
[12:59] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] shrugs, looking up at her from his spot on the floor. --
[01:00] TG: a devious face usually means a plan, but i could be wrong.
[01:01] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] blows him a kiss. --
[01:01] AG: It might.
[01:01] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] blows her a kiss back with a smile. --
[01:01] TG: give me a hint?
[01:03] AG: Nope!
[01:03] TG: vriska! 8(
[01:03] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] stands up quickly, crossing his arms with a pout. --
[01:04] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] shrugs, turning away with a flip of her hair. --
[01:04] AG: You'll find out when you're older.
[01:04] TG: im plenty old, vriska. arent we about the same age?
[01:04] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] pauses. --
[01:05] TG: are you really leaving?
[01:05] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] glances over her shoulder, frowning a little. --
[01:05] AG: No I'm not.
[01:05] AG: 8ut I'm tired.
[01:06] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] nods, biting his lip, before gesturing to the bedroom. --
[01:06] TG: you can always go to bed, if youd like. i dont know if you use beds? some trolls do, right?
[01:06] AG: I do.
[01:07] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] offers her hand with sarcastic daintiness. --
[01:07] AG: Lead the way, sir knight.
[01:07] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] smiles and gently takes her hand, leading her towards the very soft, plush bed in the middle of his bedroom. A few candles are flickering on his bedside table. --
[01:08] TG: here you are, my thief.
[01:08] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] snorts, throwing herself into the bed without much thought. --
[01:08] AG: Ah sleep.
[01:08] TG: you want me to go to bed with you now or slide in when youre asleep? i can write until i hear snoring.
[01:09] AG: I don't snore!!!!!!!!
[01:09] AG: Do what you want, asshat.
[01:09] TG: you definitely snore. 8;)
[01:09] AG: I do not.
[01:09] TG: prove it! im the only one thats able to hear it right now, and boy, do i definitely hear it.
[01:09] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] smiles! --
[01:10] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] rolls her eyes, burying her face in a pillow as she flips him the bird. --
[01:11] AG: I don't snore 8ut you sure do!
[01:20] TG: proof! i need solid proof of this!
[01:21] AG: Oh no I just know you do. It's pretty 8ad.
[01:27] TG: i can 100% guarentee that mine is much more palatable than yours. youre sawing wood all night long, vriska.
[01:27] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] smiles, his tone teasing. --
[01:29] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] clicks her tongue, shaking her head against the pillow. --
[01:29] AG: You wound me.
[01:30] TG: im just teasing. we both snore at the same volume.
[01:30] AG: Or may8e neither of us snore.
[01:31] TG: hm. that could be the case, but then my teasing would have no weight!
[01:32] -- tactileGrandiloquence [TG] sits down on the bed with a soft sigh, running a hand through his hair. --
[01:32] TG: its sleep time for the both of us, i think.
[01:38] -- aquarelleGrandiloquence [AG] nods, glancing up at him. --

When your crush is angry all the time
Tumblr media
Ch.5
"I don't think fire's all that bad, you know"
3rd person pov
°•○●○•°•○●○•°
As the sun hung high in the sky the h/t haired girl stumbled around the train station in search of a restroom. Y/n had never experienced the mundane tasks a commoner would usually persue on a daily. Things like public transit, or any transit for that matter, were an enigma to her.
So while elder men stared a little too long and young children pointed at her in recognition, she spun in circles like a lost puppy.
"Its just a fucking bathroom, should there be someone here to direct people or something! Ugh and whats with the school girl fetish, these old guy are creeps..." she mumbled to herself continuing to get more and more lost on the platform.
Meanwhile, the rest of 1-A were making their way to internships as well, Midoriya scrolled into some old guys house, Kirishima bumped into his metal replica, and Bakugou held his grump posture and nonchilauntly entered the top 3 heros agency. He was expecting to at least learn something from this guy, or gain real life experience with villains. He never anticipated being scrutinized for his personality. No shit I'm scary, Im trying to kill shitty villains not make teenage girls put a picture of me on their wall.
For the first day of this new challenged everbody seemed to be having a ridiculously mundane time. Not y/n, though. No our main character was going through it, once she made it to the restroom, she got confused by how easily the toilet paper ripped in her hand and spent 20 minutes trying to get at least one whole time out of the stubborn roll. Then, when she opened up her bag to view the new hero-suot her mother helped design...she found strings¿
She ended up having to look at an example picture and read a guide on how to put what where. It took an additional hour considering the tightness of everpiece of fabric and when she stepped out of the stall to look in the mirror, she deadpanned. How could her mother hate her this much? It was already a burden being so sexy, but this? This was crazy.
Tumblr media
She wasnt sure weather she should take a million photos, or never leave the bathroom and cry all day. However when her phone rang, a call from Mr.Woods agency, she realized how late she already must be.
In her rush, y/n also forgot about the creeps men and was recieving many stares, that went unnoticed. Until somebody had the audacity to touch her. It was just a ghost of his finger tips on the underneath of her ass that was no doubt on full display. That would not go accepted, as a girl who had turned her past trauma into nothing but a small personality traits, she wasnt scared. Still, as a woman who absolutely idolizes herself, or so she says, no one in this train station deserved the touch of her perfect, shiny, s/c skin.
The last error that secured her terrible first day was how y/n spun around and grabbed the mans fingertips. When she took a glance at him, he was smiling as if he had acomplished something. Boy was he wrong, only coming to realized so when the y/h girl suddenly had sprouted a vine from his finger.
He watched in fear as it began to grow and wrap around him, all the while the young girl he'd never met before let out a sickening aura that couldve suffocate him then and there. The vine continued to curl up around his middle and ring finger, slowly meeting the flash of his palm.
Once the growing stopped, y/n had almost decided to let him go. A part of her new that her plan wasn't well thought through, and he could be an innocent guy that accidentally touched her.
However, aggression outwayed logic and she looked him deep in the eye.
"You like using these fingers to touch things your not supposed to?"
"N-n-"
"Shhh, dont worry, im just gonna make sure you dont go touching things that arnt yours, okay?" She made an aggresive fist with the hand not touching him and the vine squeezed in. Anyone a foot away would be able to tell, but the both of them could hear how his two fingers snapped and bent under the pressure.
With a satisfied grin at the whispering man, y/n decided he had learned his lesson. Wow look at that, and I didnt even need some manly hero to come save me. Atta girl y/n.
Little did she know that not only did her pro-hero boss come to look for her, but je also saw the whole disaster. He was not pleased to say the least.
Y/n pov
°•○●○•°•○●○•°
As the tree like man sat down in his office chair across from me, all I could do was look to my feet. I didnt feel particularily had about my actions, however, I did feel bad about being late.
While it is fun to be spontanious and act like theres nothing to lose, I wasn't lying when I said I wanted to control the earth aspect of my quirk. Ill never admit it if someone asks, but sometimes the only way I can sleep at night is knowing how strong my quirk is. Knowing that they cant hurt me if I stay strong.
Still, it just seems that as I grow older, the people trying to get to be get bolder and more powerful. Some might even say...they get smarter, too. Thats a scary thought; that if I want to stay alive at all I need to be constantly improving. I am not sure if I want to stay alive or not, but Ill be damned if dying or living isnt my choice.
Feeling the need to break the silence, I began my rant on all the reasons I had come up with that justify my actions. I was planning it on the way out here.
"Look, im sorry mr.woods. I know im not very heroic and shit, but when perverts to pervert things somebody has to do something, and its not like anybody else there would have scared a glance if I didnt save myself-"
"Your wrong."
"Huh- I wasnt done. Anyways i-"
"L/n you are wrong."
"Dude im trying to-"
"There was heroes on patrol, how else did you think i found you? There were real heroes ready to protect you, if you had simply shouted people would have been alarmed of such. I dont understand kids and their need to do everything alone." He rolled his eyes behind his mask and continued to stare at me.
"Excuse me but I dont think your in a place to comment on how I react to myself being touched. He was gonna get my skin dirty and for what, two seconds of his school girl fantasy. Ew."
"Your skin....dirty?"
"Yes, he is nowhere near my standards on someone who should be allowed to touch me...not even a brush of the fingers..ugh!"
"Alright well, I cant get you in trouble because then I get in trouble...so, tell me about your quirk while we go on patrol."
His chair sqeaked against the floor as he stood up and it slid back. Then he motioned for me to follow by painting out the door.
Relieved that I didn't have to talk about all the fake reasons people aren't allowed to touch me, and that I could finally get outside so my quirk would stop suffocating me, I was quick to exit the building.
I'm not sure if its the fact that ive only been using a forth of her, but my quirks side effects have been so shitty recently. To the point that our school nurse estimsted my new rate for being inside for an extended period of time was about three hours.
I havent actually combusted in years, but I've been close and god does it hurt. My chest starts to squeeze and I can feel all the energy drain from my body, then pieces of me start to get hold and cold at the same time.
"So what really is your quirk?"
I looked up at the hero next to me as we continued on down the street of the inner City.
"How much did Aizawa tell you?"
"I-he said...she has all the right elements? And told me I'd figure it out.." He scratched the back of his head.
I smirked at that. Who knew aizawa actually listened to the words I said. I was pretty sure after the whole sulking chrollos dick thing, he would have permanently tuned me out.
"Heh, that raggedy ann bastard" I smile smugly.
"So, what does it mean?"
"Ahh, okay so, did you go to U.A?"
"Um yes kid, why?"
Then im certain je knows of my family, explaining my quirk will be easier. God, this really is my favorite part.
I reached my left hand out, knowing he was right handedly and would respond well to it and then spoke.
"Hi, nice to meet you, im y/n l/n of the elementus royal quirk family."
Once he shook my hand I did a polite curtsey, as I learned in ballet to do that instead of bowing. Its much more fun to do this at family event, where I get to wear big dresses and pretend im important...but this'll have to do.
"The-i-oh shit..." He mumbled the last part in defeat, likely just figuring out what he'd gotten himself in to.
"So, im guessing you've got ...."
"Total control, yup" I confirmed.
"And you wanna focus on earth elements, like what flowers?"
I smirk up at him allowing my aura to put an intimidating facade.
"Actually I was thing more like venus fly traps" as I said traps I let my hands clap together mimicking the plant and bit at the air with my teeth.
He stopped walking and just glanced from side to side, waiting for me to start making sense again.
Until we heard some crying in the distance.
The two of our heads shot over and were met with a strange sight. There were three young boys, looked about 8¿ and a man, hero maybe? Crouched in front of them not looking all that nice. He had spike blonde hair, red eyes, gauntlets on his wris-
"Oh my god its bakugou, look sir! Thats the hot guy I switched schools for!"
"Wha-"
"BAKUGOUUUU!! HEYYY!"
his head slowly shifted from the kids to me and it seemed to only make him more angry. Then, once again I couldn't help but bask in the pure aggression...in his eyes.
They were red, fitting for the anger thry held, but it was beautiful. It was passionate, the way he could yell for hours about god knows what because he cares. He may care about petty things, or silly things, but he always cares so much. So passionately. That I can see it in his eyes.
"Oh my, whAt is this costume deary?"best jeanist spoke from ahead of us as we approach.
"Hi sir, sorry about the skin showing, my quirk is heavily enhanced the more my pours are exposed to the natural elements, especially oxygen. If I was more covered parts of my body would begin to go completely numb. Also doesnt my body look amazing! Im a lot more in shape since you saved me last"
I blamed happily at jeanist. Though we arent neceserilly close, he is definitely a great hero and has always been someone who easily sees through my façaude. Plus his fashion sense is wonderful and I often send him pictures of my outfits. Although he doesnt respond I know he sees them and if they were bad he would be mean about it instead of ignoring it.
"Well. It definitely gives your body..access to that. And the sword?"
Ahh...the sword that I liked to carry. It was now stored in its place on my back.
"Call it a good luck charm, plus, we cant rely only on our quirks, then we are just weak people with strong powers. Rather than strong people."
I was always one to put on a show for him, as I do for lost of pro heroes. Its a lot more fun to say things like your all serious and fancy and smart sometimes. Its my little inside joke with myself, like to laugh at how easily people are awed by it.
Like how even though children were still crying bakgou was staring at me face void of emotion, completely struck at my words.
Definitely not..staring at my body that was exposed. Not eyeing the tight strap that wraps my left leg, that he doesnt know is a funcional lasso.
Noticing him, im quick to avert my attention.
"Hey bakugou~"
"Tch you really went from shitty princess to slutty princess huh?"
"You really went from telling deku you'd be number one hero, to making kids cry on the street, huh?" I challenged
I heard the crying boys laugh a little, just the age reminded me of my brother, Im sure they have nothing in common, but I havent seen any of my brothers in quite some time so I suppose a small part of me was just projecting.
I hated that they were crying, though. Ussually I dont like kids, they are stinky and gross and the main reason people have been ruining my life up til now. However, noticing these three reacting to bakugou in a way I wish emotionally available enough for, it made me feel obligated to help them. Wierd, huh.
"Hey, did that guy use his fire all scary?"
"Yeah, he was gonna kill us"
"Fires scary."
I giggled a bit, I knew fire like the back of my hand. It was the first thing I mastered as a child and the way I see bakugou use it doesnt to the element justice.
"Hm, well, I dont think so...can I show you something?"
The kid in the middle, apparently the braver of them, lifted his gaze from the concrete to meet my eyes. Just as I crouched down to my knees in front of them he nodded up at me.
I smiled at this, proud that I earned his trust for...some odd reason.
My hands formed a cup shape in front of him and I focused my ears so I could hear the blood rushing through my own brain, like waves. This was how I learned to use elements singularly: by using my internally noise to block out everything else.
I first allowed a small line of fire to dance around, now bigger than a candle wick. Then through another, and another as the boy watched carefully. Not yet impressed his face was still caustious. However I continued focusing my energy, feeling my body, the air around me, the heat of the sun, even remember the passion from bakugous crimson eyes.
I as I did so the many small flames twirled and twisted within eachother forming into a beautiful blue and orange fluctuating flower.
Tumblr media
The boy looked into my hands mouth now agape, tears dried, fear gone. Then, again, for some reasons unbeknownst to me... I felt a sense of pride.
He tapped his friends so they would look up and I continued making my fire into different things, birds, planes, people. The kids were entranced.
I looked back to see the two pros staring at me with a certain level of pride mixer with shock. While bakugou seemed at a loss for words. God knows why this time?
"I don't think fire is all that bad you know..."
"Pft, yeah, I know kid," with that I threw my little flames above their heads and let the sparks fall down of them like shiny glitter. Then, overwhelmed with this horrible feeling in my chest. I retreatdd to my boss for the weak. Was that..happiness? Ew.

definitely you
Alright then. I am going to be honest. I am the most blunt person ever and that is not going to change for this. 
Im very aware ive had an entire day to answer this and im sorry if you kept checking to see if I had answered yet. But I wanted to answer it at the right time so I could give you the best possible answer. 
________________________________________
You asked me “pls help me how to get over people idk”
I dont know either. 
I have been trying for the past 6 years. And I still dont know how. Ill admit my situation is different and that I have never been in your (exact) situation because I have never allowed myself to be. But… I will be damned if I do not at least try and help you. 
To be clear, this is not a how to. I dont know ‘how to’ these are just…tips.. ive learned from two experiences. 
Im not going to lie. Its not going to get easier. Not for a little while in the grand scheme that will be your lifetime. It will seem like forever until one day you look back and go “I was over that so quick”. So right now I want you to get your emotions out. I dont care if you are angry or sad or both. I dont care how you get them out. Punch something, break something, cry, eat a couple pints of ice cream, rant. Just get the emotions out. (if you self harm, PLEASE please please, do not. Message me or call/text your country’s self harm hotline or if you have somone else you can call or talk to do that. you are worth so much, dont put yourself through that) Emotions are not things that are meant to be feared or repressed (trust me on the latter). Emotions are not signs of weakness, but signs strength.  If you need someone to rant to or be there while you cry and go through thoughts and emotions, my messages are ALWAYS open and time is NEVER and issue for me. (that goes for anyone else reading this too) 
After you are thinking better, figure out what you want to do. Who do you want this person to become to you. You said “get over” so im not sure if you ever want to see them again or if you want them out of your life for good. If you want him to still be a friend, start treating him just like another friend. NO special exceptions. If you want him out of your life for good, start ignoring him. I know both sound really hard but thats because they will be. Im going to go farther into the ‘out of your life for good’ because thats more the vibe i got from your ask. Ignoring him wont be easy. Especially the thought of him. Thats ok. Think of him but dont linger. Spare him a thought or two or three but then tell yourself “I dont like him, its just not possible.” Or something very close to that. Its probably not true but tell it to yourself anyway. In time it will be. If there are times when you think of him or getting over him is too hard, have your break down. Its ok. But dont stay there. All this, will be the part of letting go but it will take time. (took me a year for one and im still not over another one after six years but the six years one is a lot different.) 
Chances are, he will never be fully gone. There will probably be random times you still think of him. But ive learned thats one of the prices of liking someone for so long. They say crushes last 4 months and if it lasts longer its love. (yes you can google that) So a tiny itsy bitsy piece of that will never go away. 
Theres one more bit of advice I have. 
You are human. You are strong. You are a woman (im guessing and im sorry if im wrong)! You. Are. Strong. You have made it so far in this fucked up journey we call human life. You are a strong human woman and you dont need a man (or anyone) to validate that or you because you are already valid. You have galaxies and gardens growing within your head. Full of color and life. You have a smile that would chase clouds away on the gloomiest days. You have eyes that shine so bright because they are windows to your stunning soul. And anyone that cant see that and tells you “its not the time” doesnt deserve you! 
Tell yourself that weekly, daily, hourly, I dont care when. But when you are feeling down about him or yourself, or you just feel like you are stuck, tell yourself that. Or reread that if you have to. 
This process is different for everyone and I believe no one can tell you how to do it. You have to figure it out for yourself. But I think and hope these will help you find your way. 
_______
Im not sure if any of that made any sense and everytime I think about it all I think I need to go back and redo it because I sound like I have no idea what I am talking about or trying to say (probably because i dont). But i do know the first bit of advice and the last are what really help/ed me. The middle one…. its just something ive observed over time. 
Alright real talk one last time. I was/am being dead serious. I am/will ALWAYS be here if you need me for ANYTHING just message me or send and ask (rant, questions, cry, someone to just talk to, opinions, positive ‘pep’ talks, anything). If you have anymore questions send another ask or message me. I know messaging might seem intimidating because you cant be anonymous but I wont judge or freak out or react to your username/url if you need me. I find messages easier to help someone but i will still always help people who send in asks too. That goes for anyone reading this. 
I hope this helps you, I really do. 
Xoxo -Donnie

TAZ NORMAL AU THING
THB HOUSEHOLD - MAGNUS, MERLE, TAAKO (And Steven the Fish)
part one / part two / part three
Merle works at Home Depot and is the one keeping most of the plants alive
Magnus is a carpenter. He's got his own lil business going.
Taako works at the gas station and has seen A Lot.
They're all roommates and live together in [Town 1]
Magnus wants a dog but the landlord says no :(((
I feel like Taako still does a bunch of witchcraft-y stuff
At first, Merle does most of then cooking because Taako hates cooking for others but at one point he slowly starts getting back into it and then he's just the only one who cooks.
No one else is allowed in the kitchen. No one. Get out.
Taako used to work for a fancy restaurant but one day a bunch of people got rlly bad food poisoning and some people even died and he quit and he's been at the gas station ever since
However at one point when Merle and Magnus were watching tv, something about the restaurant came up, new evidence on the case, Sazed's arrest.
“Taako you should come see this”
“I hate the news fuck off?”
“Dude I think you'd actually be Very interested in this come here”
“Uuuggghhhhh- holy shhit my dudes that's my old manager- what the fuck. What the fuck?”
After that he gets back in the swing of cookin' for his friendos.
Merle has two kids and an ex wife
He sends money back to them often enough.
They were kept a secret from Taako and Magnus until one Christmas- i mean Candle Nights in which he got a letter from them and Magnus and Taako got ahold of it
“YOU HAVE CHILDREN?”
“YEAH I DO SHUT UP YOU DIRTY SNEAKS”
It's fine no one is too ‘Holy shit what the fuck’
Prior to THB living together, Magnus lived with his wife, and his father-in-law & mentor, Steven.
They were killed by an explosion planted by the old mayor. Magnus was out of town at the time.
They were expecting a child
Merle and Taako were unaware of this part for a long while. They had to use context clues at first but that gave them the wrong answer and when they confronted Magnus about it, Magnus gave them the fuller story.
They were at Goodwill or something and Magnus got caught up looking at baby shoes.
Merle and Taako added that along with the few times they'd seen Magnus with small child and he got hella choked up and decided something like.
“He's probably just upset he'll never get to have kids y'know.”
“I mean he probably could.”
“He's way too devoted to his dead wife i dont think so pal”
“alright true. so hes sad he can't have kids and grow old with the lady he loves.”
They corner him in his room and talk about it. He's carving something and he mostly stays focused on that when talking until he gets way way way too choked up and has to put it down.
“We- we've talked about... Julia before, yeah?”
“Yyyep.” “Mhmm.”
“Well. Um. Be- before she, she died, we...” shaky hands strike the wood and maybe this isn't a good idea. “We were... expecting. A baby. She was pregnant, and,” he almost cuts his thumb so knife gets to go down now. “...yeah.” 
this is officially worse than what Taako and Merle thought.
It's not a great day.
They'll get better, though.
There's still bad days but they get more manageable.
Flash forward, Taako gets himself a boyfriend.
I need to find a way to work in “Hey thug whats your name” bc thats. how i physically need them to meet. idk how tho.
Anyways they go on their first date at the fuckin' Chug and Squeeze and at first Kravitz isn't entirely sure that it's a date and not just like ‘Two bros, chillin at the Chug&Squeeze, three feet apart cuz they're not gay!’ but it becomes abundantly clear that this is a date
Also followed up when they're walking home, Taako gets a call from Lup that literally just starts out 'hey slut whats up' 'im on a date why are you calling me'
“You're on a DATE? With who? Do I need to beat them up? HEY SKANK WHAT'S YOUR NAME TOUCH MY BABY BROTHER AND DIE“ “LUP WE'RE THE SAME AGE GOODBYE sorry about her anyways um walk me home?”
Kravitz, his face very red because Lup is a very loud girl and most of that conversation was in fact audible to him: ok
What is Merle's relationship? With anyone? It's assumed he's dating Davenport. He also is fond of Lucretia.
“Are you dating Davenport??“ Magnus asks, eyeing him suspiciously.
“I think so.” Merle shrugs.
“Ohh my god. Oh my god.” Taako says from the couch. “Incredible.”
Magnus is the third wheel of forever.
Not just in his friends romantic settings though sometimes Lup and Taako will go on lunch dates and 'hey wanna come' 'yeah sure' flash forward 'ohkay ive said about six words this entire hour'
He'll tag along with Carey and Killian from time to time
Killian isn't. Toooo entirely fond of this but its not often enough to be like 'nope this is too much'
He went with them (the second time) to visit Carey's new [niece/nephew] and got to hold them and he started crying
(Killian later told Taako and Merle about this and it was part of their Clues For Sad Magnus)
(In reality he was just super happy for them because look at this tiny beautiful baby!!! so healthy!!! you made this!!!!! he's a weeper)
(Magnus is a total weeper and you can take that from my dead gay hands)
Both Taako and Merle are allergic to cats
This does not keep Taako from petting street cats though.
Taako is allergic to peanuts and will avoid using them in his cooking if he can get away with it.
The only pets they have is Steven the Fish who lives in a giant tank with some guppies and a sucker fish.
Merle has a few of his plants named.
“This is Beth, Abigail, and Petersburg.” They're well loved.
Taako has a number of herbs and stuff which also have names.
“This is Shub-Niggurath, Yig, Cthylla, and Nyarlathotep.” They're also well loved, but mostly by me.
Taako and Lup sibling dates though.
They happen constantly too. They’ll go to other restaurants together and rant about boyfriends and friends and life.
Sometimes they’ll go shopping together and they’re definitely the most obnoxious customers in the store
THB have like two restaurants they’ll go to like at least once a month
They have an order to tell who’s paying 
One of the restaurants they go to has a gumball machine. Some of the gumballs have Nerds in them.
They’re very passionate about Nerds gumballs.
This is also where Leon works so every few weeks the boys come in and his happiness dies because they’re so loud and yell about the fucking gumballs 
[I wrote a thing about it here read it]
Magnus runs his own little carpentry shop with a few employees who frankly mostly just deliver the stuff and run the money and all that shit. Magnus is mostly the only guy workin’ the wood.
When the time came, he helped Carey propose to Killian. Actually it was a little bit of all three of them, but Magnus and Carey came up with the plan.
He also literally carved her a fucking engagement ring
He was her best man at the wedding.
