Do you have voice claims for a1/a2?

no one in particular but i imagine them as kinda just .. sweet, soft-spoken people… like they both have voices that would put you at ease

i have this fic in my brain with like. two parts. possibly three. and that's 1) ted teaches trent, of all people, how to make his famous biscuits. this implies a few things:

a) trent is now the biscuit successor. ted's always handing out biscuits. trent finds himself doing the same thing. (this would be the hypothetical third part, if you'll forgive my nonlinearity--trent, and the community, and biscuits.)

b) i like to think trent would enjoy making it bc Autism. idk about yall but i love following a list of precise instructions with little treats along the way with the end result of a thing i can not only hold in my hands but eat??? anyway trent gaining a new hobby for his spare time (that his daughter LOVES to "assist" with lol) and maybe he even starts experimenting himself--the biscuits are never going to be exactly like ted's, but they have something special of their own, too. (and it's still made with love :))

c) ted and trent baking together and the cute (but ultimately bittersweet) shenanigans that ensue.

2) rebecca is missing biscuits with the boss and girl talk, now that ted's gone, when trent hesitantly ducks in with a pink box.

3) again, as beforementioned, trent inadvertently getting roped into making these regularly. first it's one off thing--cheering colin up or it's mentioned that he used to make them for someone ELSE'S kid's birthday and trent knows from experience that's not to be missed, and then it's just. becoming a thing. he is regularly making biscuits now. he is ted's biscuit man successor.

So this is like, fully projection, but I like to imagine that Dia and Doppio are autistic too actually. Doppio being the kind that could never mask well, even if he ended up in trouble because of it, and Dia being the kind that mostly masked by staying quiet and professional despite the stress. A real infofumping/ verbal shutdown kind of pair.

I LOVE THAT A WHOLE LOT!!! yeah omg absolutely- I definitely see Doppio as someone who has special interests and sensory sensitivities especially (and I've always thought he stims by making his ringtone noise idly when he's focusing). I definitely think it's pretty much canon that Diavolo gets meltdowns as well, like, seeing him in his hotel room in his little blanket fort i'm like "oh buddy, yeah, that's a meltdown right there". they're absolutely an infodumping/verbal shutdown kind of pair, i like to imagine a lot of their early correspondence was writing in notebooks back and forth because one or the other of them had gone nonverbal after something happened I also love to hc both of them are also ADHD/AuDHD because they definitely have some things that I super project onto connect to; Doppio's memory issues, of course (and Diavolo acting as his external motivation/guidance because Doppio struggles with holding onto a task/executive function), Diavolo's entire sense of time ESPECIALLY resonates with me- his whole like. Everlasting present, his inability to connect to the past and his outright fear of the future DEEPLY hit me right in the time blindness. It really is like- there is no future and there is no past, there is only Right Now

i love them... most neurodivergent boys of all time, our nuerodivergent kings, the problematic representation we all deserve

hypothetical better teen wolf movie concept keeping the premise to me would be...

15 years later, scott's got a sucky job and shitty apartment and hasn't been home or seen most of his friends in a long time and he can't figure out where his life went wrong but he thinks it was probably the night allison died or maybe even before that when he didn't fight to be with her and he keeps having dreams that it was just a mistake, a trick of the light, and she's out there waiting to be found.

and he's known people who came back to life, who bled out and were buried and reanimated. sure, maybe not human people, but there has to be something... so he searches and searches and he finally finds a possible solution, a ritual, and he can't leave it alone. he has to try.

it might be insane and might not work and god, she was cremated and it's been so long. there's no grave to reach into. nothing to open its eyes. there's nothing left of her but the ash her father melted into a silver amulet he wears always around his neck. argent follows him home when he asks, though his eyes are wounded and bitter.

they're both haunted, scott knows, and when he says, see, maybe that means it's true... that she's out there, argent just shakes his head, having lost so much more than just her and says, that's just grief, scott. grief is a haunting.

the chain of the amulet looks so thin and insignificant against the rings of the great tree.

and it works. it works. she rises from the ash, and it's--

something rises from the ash, but it isn't allison. something smiles with her soft lips and its eyes flash and scott kneels in the grove and knows he has made a horrible, horrible mistake and that he's the only one who can fix it. he yells to the thing who is not allison that he's going to fix it, and when her mouth opens to speak, the night is alive with fireflies.

this sounds soooo dumb but hear me out... your ocs made me believe in love again. i had a really bad breakup a while ago and for ages i couldn't stand love songs anymore and hated anything about couples etc etc. and then i stumbled upon markus and kale and loved them, and long story short, here we are a few months later and i have a much better relationship with love again. so thank you for that lol!!!

THIS IS NOT DUMB AT ALL I ALMOST TEARED UP READING THIS!!! I also do not have the greatest relationship with love, my last break up was also messy and awful so I cope by drawing Markus and Kale finding love in each other the way I feel is healthiest 🥺 Sometimes I feel like they’re kind of dumb because it’s all cheesy and stuff but I’m really really glad they’ve helped at least one person believe in love again.

This world sucks, humans are flawed; they hurt you intentionally or unintentionally and it’s hard to think there is someone out there for you, but all we can do is hope because living a life believing love isn’t real is a miserable life for sure.

shoutout to everyone who wants to infodump but cant string together coherent thoughts to form sentences and instead just look at you like this

characters have to be a little bit awful in ways that you cant defend. its good for the ecosystem. your honor he did do that. He did in fact do that

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"

Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

do you ever see a person and you are overcome with incredible fondness? and you just think "oh." but not in a romantic or sexual way you are just filled with warmth and it makes you happy, it just does. and you think "i'm so happy you exist. i'm happy you are somewhere out there in the world, doing your thing". it's love but also not entirely

like people are lovely and i feel it in my entire chest like a burning candle that smells like roses and a sunny day
