Hey guys!! Sorry for the lack of posts recently! I entered a hole in the wall and when I got out I realized I didn't know how long I'd been in there, or where I was, or who I am, and I'm not sure that I'm still the person who entered that hole however long ago. Anyway, the normal posting schedule will resume as soon as I remember what my normal posting schedule was, and if I'm still the person who had that posting schedule!

Haihaiaihaihi!!!! I reallllllllllllly like ur Angry Yan x comfort reader drabbles!!! I'm someone you'd call an absolute night owl, and maybe even someone with a big mouth. I'm always up for saying what I liek and fighting people I think are dumb. (Verbally. Most of the time.)
At night, (if the day hasn't beat my ass) I'm an insane lunatic who rambles to herself. think of me like a cat. very judgy one. (but if the day has beat my ass and I'm crying on the floor i'm just going to sleep in my tears) (jk no tears cowgirls don't cry/j)
TL;DR: I'm a bitch and I like to yapp, but I love going insane at night and talking and rambling like there's no tomorrow. That or I'm out cold like ice. There's no in-between. (btw kinda willing)
sorry i wrote this at 12:56 am and I am sick so I feel a bit silly nyahahah just a little nayahah
MEOWWWWW bounCES OFF YOUR walls very politely.
If you can't make sense of my gibberish please tell me and i'll rewrite it later when i feel more sane.
Hii!! Thanks so much for the ask (and for the very polite meows and wall-bouncing :3)!! I hope I managed to correctly translate your stream of thoughts <3
Angry ! Yandere Headcanons here !
Sorry it's been a bit since I've posted!! I get pretty busy this time of year so I've been writing where I can!
But please still send asks, I love receiving them!! :D
Find my Masterlist here !
Please enjoy!!<33
Tumblr media
❥ Angry ! Yandere who cannot help but be in awe of you as he listens to your extensive ramblings of your topic of choice, the two of you have all the time in the world after all!
❥ Angry ! Yandere who was initially worried your talkative nature would be replaced with a shell of yourself when he first took you as his, but very quickly - as soon as you woke up, actually - that that would not be the case and found himself thrilled to hear your defiant words (he would soon teach you, but this was a great first step in your adjustment!)
❥ Angry ! Yandere who cannot find it within him to be made angry by your words, (almost) no matter what you say - at least towards you, other people on the other hand are an entirely different story - even with your extreme lack of filter, which makes him more lenient with you than he would in other areas (making back-talk your only real way to be defiant). Although this can change at the drop of a hat if his mood is already rough, that forgiving attitude being nowhere to be seen even with that usually tolerance.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who immensely enjoys not needing to punish you - it makes him proud that the two of you have come so far since he first brought you here - his moods are made even better by your chatterbox personality which supplies him a near-continuous source of peace, basking in it.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who takes great pleasure in the sound of your voice, especially when he’s falling asleep while you stay up for hours, long into the night. Your babble like white noise or pleasant rain sounds for him (and only him) to fall asleep to.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who doesn’t mind if you stay up late playing video games or working on a hobby - as long as you can sit on the bed with him whilst doing so as to let him sleep on or near you.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who minds immensely if you are the type to get up and move around a lot, needing to be up and moving not only takes the sounds of your voice move farther away from his ears but it stops him from being able to loop his arms around your waist or rest his head against you - this will only end in you being tied up and unable to leave him, which may be uncomfortable but he’s too busy cuddling you to sleep to notice.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who will put his foot down if he feels your staying up late is having negative effects. He’ll disallow caffeinated drinks and tie you to the bed at night but if you’re still unable to sleep then he’ll go straight to the sleeping pills to solve this issue, having zero patience to try any more methods which he feels will be unhelpful.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who loves the nights all energy escapes you (naturally, without the pills) and you are left practically passed out wherever you had decided to sit that evening, leaving you very pliable for cuddling without the rope or bindings in the way.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who feels pity for his Darling when the struggles of the day come crashing down a little too harshly, leaving you teary and unwelcome to the idea of moving from your chosen spot on the basement floor.
❥ Angry ! Yandere who either just scoops you up from the floor, depositing you on the bed and joining you for a cuddle-fest or joins you on the floor with some blankets and pillows, ready to get comfy where you are. He hopes to provide an ounce of the comfort you provide him by the hour just from being in your near-presence...

hi! for the yandere turtles, is there any chance of the reader de-yanderifying them over time? like teaching them healthy boundaries and stuff? love ur writing btw <3
Im not sure if this is was supposed to be a request or not, but since my requests are technically closed, I'm just going to answer it 'normally'. Sorry it took a while for me to answer, I was trying to figure out how to go about it. Merry Christmas y'all.
It got kinda long so I put it under a cut-
I personally think theoretically yes, but I will personally not write it(at this time. Feelings change or there mught be a good request idk). In no way, shape, or form do I think the yandere genre should be painted in a good light, and to me, this feels like it could be. The idea of de-yanderefying someone feels too close to the "I can fix them" mindset, and I personally hate that because to me, it seems like someone could try and argue that this behavior is more or less excusable. To me, this falls into the same area as "Yandere (Y/n)/Reader", which is another trope im uncomfortable with as it feels more like its being acted out for some reason. Obviously, I wrote one of those, so no, I don't actually think it's the same as actually being yandere or some other sick and twisted mindset in real life. Now I'm not trying to sit up on a high horse and condem people who like this trope, sometimes I think it's written well and I do like it, it's just not something I plan on dipping my toes in at this moment in time.
Now to actually answer the question, it really depends on both the scenario, how 'extreme' you're going with the yandere, how long it would take, and how much they're 'de-yanderefied'. Take Mikey for example. I usually try to portray him as delusional and someone who snaps once, and that 'snap' is what turns him fully yandere rather than just toxic. While you could definitely over time get him back to toxic, he can always snap again and he will never be considered a 'normal' relationship. You can only try and break down someone's inner personality so much, and if that toxicity is built into them like in most yandere fiction, I don't believe you could fully revert someone like that to meet societies standards of a normal, functional relationship. Although, this is fiction, so yeah you could definitely. It might just be hard to justify and plan correctly because of the mental hoops yanderes have to jump through to justify their immense abuse and toxicity.
Feel free to debate me on this if you have like, a vastly different opinion, but in my mind you can't really change someone? usually at least. Abusers abuse others and cheaters usually keep cheating. to me, someone who's 'de-yanderefied' is just a yandere waiting to snap again.
TL;DR - Yes, but I don't want to write it.

haii!!! actual lesbian here! you can't be both bi and a lesbian! lesbian means non men that like other non men! ur a non lesbian so you should go kys!!!! ^-^
because we all know what you mean, you don't see us trans girls as woman so you say that bi lesbians exist because you're scared of us transbians!
now go fuck off! your carrds aren't valid sources and lesbians have never liked men!
-From, an actual lesbian <3
fascinating. do you tell everyone you disagree with to kill themselves or am i just special?
it's also really cool how you're putting words in my mouth. bi lesbian as a label has nothing to do with being "scared" of transbians and i'd love to see your source for that claim.
and carrds might not be valid sources, but what about Vintage Queer Literature and newsletters?
Like this newsletter from 1984 talking about bi lesbians being integral to the lesbian community? (oh look at that, it also talks about how Some Lesbians treat them terribly! not much has changed, huh?)
Tumblr media
Or perhaps this excerpt from Lavender Woman, which talks about bi lesbians all the way back in 1973?
Tumblr media
Whoops I dropped this Google Doc full of vintage mentions of bisexual lesbians! Clumsy me! This one also talks about the awful and inaccurate "non-man loving non-man" thing a little) Here's a Masterpost on the history of the term (with cited sources)
I would also like to point out that multigender lesbians exist and that means sometimes a lesbian is also a man. Sorry! You can't just go "lesbian means non-man loving non-man" without excluding tons of butch lesbians and trans lesbians who personally identify as partially men. Did you forget that bigender people are like... real? Genderfluid people? (And before someone tries to imply that I'm implying that binary trans women are "partially men" or something, that's not what i'm saying and you know it. I'm talking about people who personally identify themselves as being both male and another gender)
tl;dr you have drunk the lesbian separatism kool-aid and need to log off because telling people to kill themselves and accusing them of being transmisogynistic with zero proof is abhorrent behavior + if you saw the butches im friends with you'd hurl

i love your art so much! your bio says that your work is not created to be references, does this mean you don't approve of their use as such? i've referenced your art in the past, but i'll stop doing it if it's not what you want. keep up the great work!
tl;dr: I appreciate anyone wanting to use my work for reference but please ask me for permission before you do because i own it and it's basic artist etiquette. (also i may not grant it.)
hello again :)
ah! perfect opportunity for me to explain this whole thing! that was me throwing a tantrum in response to one particular case which was an artist copying one of my photos exactly as it is and was like hmm i'll sell this as a print, and i saw it by chance and was like no wtf thats not ur work to sell... and granted they did credit me but this, along with a few others things both recent and long bothering me, pissed me off enough I put that in my bio. like. there are ways to respecfully create something based off other ppl's work and ways that don't. also ways that just straight up aren't technically legal. i get walked on so much i forgot my rights to my own work.
with that said tho as long as my work is credited or its noted that the art is reference practice and not original art, and not like... further edited or interpreted in the same way an artist wouldn't want their art to be tampered with, especially the fake cgs i sold my soul to make, im mostly fine with it. also ask me for permission before hand bc there are things i don't want other ppl touching. i think i know what ur art blog is and im pretty sure you've been crediting and being very supportive so im okay with it :)
i could write a whole thing about how originality and effort and creative ownership in VP is overlooked but in short, my work are all individually a complete photographic piece that i intend for to be viewed as is. if, say, i blur an image or have little lighting or only include half a subject's face or whatever these are all intentional choices i make in attempts to create emotion and atmosphere etc. idk if i managed to communicate that clearly. basically what im trying to say is, judge me if you will, but i don't think it's selfish for me to want my work to be viewed the way i want it to and for ppl to recognise the effort i put into making it a creative original piece.
now this is just me rambling but in general, while i do appreciate that others will look at my work and think the composition or lighting or whatever is good enough to be a reference, i'm still bothered when thats all they can see (i.e. sees a vp work and think oh hey look what a good ref for my art!!1!), especially if they like see it reposted on pinterest and think its free for the taking…? baffles me how some artists are so aware of the ownership of their own work but fail to give others credit where its due.
a few links for anyone interested enough:
Tumblr media
anyway wordspew over. sorry if this whole thing sounds angry but like. i'm angry. have been for a year ever since i started doing vp. mostly bc of the resposting but still. but yea anyway thanks again for this ask and for being considerate and the support! <3

hey guys do u wanna hear me yapping about how i think angel care and last journey by iyowa fits how i feel ab jacket's mourning after he lost beard and gf? no.?????? ok idc ure still hearing me out!!!!
all the translations referenced!!
last journey / ラストジャーニー [tl source]
angel care / エンゼルケア [tl source]
both translations are by Spicy Sweets!! go check out their blog here :]
og songs if u want to listen to them!!!
last journey / ラストジャーニー [this could make u motion sick, be wary of that!!! take care!!!]
angel care / エンゼルケア
so, for context, last journey is about someone losing their partner / close friend / loved one / whatever else, either due to suicide or something else. and angel care is basically the aftermath, hence the lyrics referencing last journey!!
Tumblr media
"I thought I'd stop by to see you. While tripping on the smoke of our burning love" y'know how from chapter 3 (decadence) onward you see girlfriend in your house, just hanging around, right? i like to think this line kinda parallels that, jacket coming back home to see her again, because no matter what he still probably worried about her and wanted to see if she's okay. especially after what the snuff film producer put her through.
"When the dead body started talking, it devoured what little daily life I had" the missions he was sent on by 50B. what else do i say!!!
"I made it here because I had halfway expectations" also somewhat relating to both 50B and girlfriend, expecting either a house full of russians to beat down on or his beloved girl waiting for him.
Tumblr media
"Your phone died, and you didn't have friends you could go to, so I was worried." beard talking about how there's something going on outside the shop he works at in san francisco, then walking out after hanging up and getting fucking CLAPPED by the nuke.
"I'll get a bit of rest in this freezing, rust-colored world." how jacket felt after losing the one friend he trusted the most, probably being sleepless for like days on end because of how much it fucked him up - or oversleeping, i mean... that's just depression and grieving for u
"Our little home was blown away, but I made it here because I wanted an unraveled love" again, san francisco getting blasted and jacket wishing he could've saved beard somehow, even if that's not possible.
Tumblr media
"I clung onto a dream that wouldn't ever comfort me on our last journey" that part in hlm1 where suddenly jacket sees the world for how it is, the shopkeeper no longer being beard but some bald guy. hence the "dream that wouldn't ever comfort me" part, but that's just me probably looking a little too much into it ^_^"
Tumblr media
what do i say!!!!! that part in the game where gf gets shot and wasn't able to be saved :[
now here's angel care!!!!!!
Tumblr media
"I made it here because I have only one regret" him regretting that he didn't save beard or gf in time. i mean, he couldn't do jack shit but he surely wishes he could.
"My favorite books are all boring now. Those changes rose to the surface along with my beloved" the monotony of life in jail after he shot the grandfather point blank, and then maybe the memory of beard and gf's moments with him surfacing. god. ok this is making me sad why did i do this to myself
"No matter how many times I'm reborn, I can never atone." more of a meta thing, though also you brought it upon yourself by killing mobsters and basically leading to the world pretty much blowing up.
Tumblr media
"I'm sorry for not saving you, I'm sorry for looking away" i explained this like 95954954 times u get it by now
"I savored the loneliness that lingered among my dulled senses. Ahh, if I pretend that I'm burdened by fate, then it'll be fine if I say it'd all for your sake, right?" wanting everything to turn out okay, maybe downplaying how he feels as he thinks it's stupid. i'm looking into it too much god help. idek how to word it at this point
Tumblr media
again, the san francisco incident and that part in / before trauma
Tumblr media
the "I'm sorry" lines are self explainatory, the "as we're reduced to ashes" is the nuke!!!
"Ahh, the world's ending, I loved you" the end of wrong number, it all makes sense.
"Your long journey is over now." both to the player and everyone else, you've done all you did and caused it.
ty for reading my unhinged rant and stream of conscience!!!

Mikoto - 8, 9, 11, and 12!
(I forgot if I sent you an ask already, I'm sorry if I did!)
you MAY have sent an ask for this ask game the first time i reblogged it??? i have no idea actually, but if you did that wouldve been Months ago, so ur good either way dw!
hello this is future 08and09systemtruther: i found the ask and you asked for Mr. John Milgram, not Mikoto! so yippee!
kinda long so. read more be upon ye
8. what is your theory for their crime? if there is general consensus on it in the fandom, do you have any other, not-so-widely-accepted thoughts on it?
no clue!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i honestly dont. really. have a super good idea as to what his crime even was other than he bonked someone, or multiple ppl, with a baseball bat. like. who did he even kill. what was the motive. what did the person(s) he killed do to trigger him into needing to protect himself. and i doubt we'll get answers to these questions until trial 3 considering John is very adamant about protecting Mikoto from the stress that comes with even thinking about that stuff. and John himself said he doesn't even remember a lot of the details and that his memory of it is fuzzy so. fucking RIP us i guess.
anyway. as for... i guess any sort of theory... uh... i've always liked the stalker theory.. though i guess i'm not As sure about it since Double's release but... i just think it explains all the camera imagery nicely.. though there's also other explanations for "being watched" being a theme for Mikoto so... who knows, i sure don't.
as I think about it, I wonder if the victim we see in MeMe getting bonked by Mikoto is maybe one of his coworkers... like... i don't know why Milgram would put so much focus on his Working Life if it didn't have Some connection with the crime... and a connection other than "this was making him so stressed that he was more prone to snapping under pressure"... or else Backdraft would've shown Fuuta in college-- /j. like I really hope he killed his boss, but i don't think that happened unfortunately... i guess it's still possible but... idk.
9. do you forgive/not forgive their crime on its own?
on its own... that would depend on what "on its own" means, exactly... like take everything other than the crime itself out of the equation? if so, then... well. my answer is not a yes or no but is instead:
i don't think you can, nor really should, judge a crime just on its own and not consider anything else about it. as Kotoko put it...
Tumblr media
Q: What do you think about extenuating circumstances? A: I think it's a necessary way of thinking. I don't think that committing a crime in itself is evil, so it's only natural to judge while taking a person's situation into account.
thank you Kotoko for your wisdom. i look forward to seeing your interrogation questions this trial. do not hold back i want to see you in all your traumatized glory.
anyway. yeah. that's my answer i guess. though not to say i believe this for Every Single Crime Ever. i do believe there are crimes where... it's... a little difficult... to look past the inherent nature of it...
that being said i think murder should be legal at a federal level so of course i forgive his crime! /j
tl;dr: yeah i do because i don't think you should judge actions without looking at the whole picture. "i thought you said you dont even know what the details of his crime are--" dont worry about it <3
11. what are your favorite points about their story and the narrative surrounding them?
hm..... well for one I'm always here for bashing the living hell that is The Working Culture, so hell yeah to that 🍻! I'm also a fan of just... the questions it poses about mental illness and culpability and the complications that arise when trying to take those types of extenuating circumstance into account.
of course I like the DID rep, and I think it's done very well so always a fan of that. I like just mentioned this in a post so oops but. as i said there, i really like how his DID isn't only portrayed as super clear-cut alters that like... never blend together. there is a good balance between how distinct they are and how much self agency they have, and then also how they influence each other. imo.
if we get to learn more about his family and what his home life was like growing up... I'm sure I will be a very big fan of that. here's a meme that I'm in love with that's sorta related I guess.
Tumblr media
12. what do you wish would be discussed more often about them in the fandom?
as I was looking for your Possible Past Ask, i found another ask i answered for Mikoto by an anon in which I answered this. and i guess this is still my answer to this question?? so ill just copy and paste it <3
" I wouldn’t say I’m super involved with most of the fandom tbh, so I don’t particularly know all too well what is and isn’t talked about by people… but.. I’d maybe like to see some more discussion on aspects of him that are like… not just about The Alters. since theres a lot more to DID than just having alters, and of course there is more to a person with DID than just their DID. I’m always a slut for talking about psychology and the impacts of trauma, so… perhaps more trauma discussion. I do know there’s already people who talk about this stuff, so tbh this is mostly just what I myself want to eventually get around to talking about but mKFMDF yeah. "
ty for the ask!!

like, I get it, but at the same time, blocking his biggest update acc is a weird move and is also lowkey shooting himself in the foot??? I think some ppl r blowing it way out of proportion, but I do think a lot of the questioning is valid.
it also just gives rads more ammunition to hate on larries as if we don’t have enough of that but 🤷🏻‍♀️ /gen /nm
I genuinely wanna know ur thoughts on it, though, (and uas you recommend??) bc I rly do think a lot of people on twitter are losing the plot
answer below mainly because it ended up long for some reason?
yeah hld does have a lot of followers and especially since louis gets jack shit when it comes to promo, stuff like this is disappointing but it seems clear to me by the severity of the action that louis thinks the harm they're causing outweighs any of the good – like, don't get me wrong ,the streaming parties they've organized in the past as well as fundraisers for charities and stuff have all been incredible but the whole 'superfollower' thing and how they've clearly taken too much joy in the rumors of them actually having connections to louis/harry just show that they've kind of let the attention... get to their heads??? if anything hopefully this blocking will help them gain some perspective – i don't think anyone behind this ua is a bad person or anything and i think some people definitely ARE taking things way too far.
also louis isn't stupid. he's not the type of person to recklessly block a fan account, knowing that it would instantly be noticed and speculated upon by everyone especially since hld's platform is so big.
at the end of the day, i trust louis and his reasons for doing what he did. the thing is, we don't even know fully why he didn't and we probably never will... i saw that ss from someone saying another ua was sending lies to louis and... ngl we literally have zero reason to believe them. for all we know they sent that dm to themselves lol.
as for the 'rads' thing... let's be real, people are always going to find ways to hate on larries and that's unfortunately not going to change, but we don't have to let it bother us. i honestly don't care if people use this as a way to say louis hates larries or whatever because i don't believe that, and neither do any of us frankly, and that's all that matters. if someone tries to say something to you, just block them and try your best to ignore it. while words can definitely hurt, they're still just words. putting that into perspective always helps when people are being nasty (also people being nasty will always say more about them then you).
ALL THAT BEING SAID, this account has been controversial for a WHILE because of how they've handled things and while some solo fans or antis or other non-larries probably have hated on hld because it's a "larry" ua, that's not all they've had a problem with and in that respect, i also don't really care that they may be celebrating this today. that's also partly because i don't really care about what people outside of my own circle/community are saying/doing in ANY context and let me tell you that's a much more pleasant way to experience this fandom lol.
ua recs... ngl i don't follow ANY uas on twitter and never have so i can't really help you 😣 i've never really been someone that needs the fastest updates or news, like immediately when it happens, and have been just fine getting information from my tl/mutuals whenever i log on so i never felt the need to follow any, sorry </3 i'm sure someone else out there will be much more helpful in answering this question though!! and i hope you find them!
final notes (sorry this ended up so long idk how that happened): i think there's definitely some nuance to this topic but at the end of the day, i trust in louis' judgment and that he made the right decision today. i also think people need to move on from this topic because YES some people have absolutely lost the plot on twitter like 😬 pls calm down!!!

Ppl are mad that SW didn't consider yona as the ruler. Sw needs to broaden his outlook cz he rejects the gods for his personal grudge while yona accepts their power to solve problems-wtf. I don't understand their mindset. They hate kyesook for wanting to use the dragons while they hate Sw for not accepting the powers of god. Why ppl think gods in Anyverse are benevolent, saint?
Hi anon!  When I first saw your message, I planned to just reply that I couldn’t see the take(s) you were talking about because I’ve probably blocked/don’t follow the OP(s); but at this point, I’ve definitely seen similar sentiments (and worse!) popping up in other places.  I’ll talk about the overall argument, but before that, I want to encourage you to also block anyone making posts that trouble you.  I don’t know for sure whether you’re the same anon I didn’t publish from last chapter, but regardless, I hope you can pull away from annoying discourse this way.  You can’t un-see a bad take, obviously, but it’s better to curate your fandom experience and set boundaries as soon as possible.  Generic advice, I know, but it helped me and I really hope it helps you. ^^
Anyway, on to The Take.  I’m not gonna talk in detail about the gods’ offenses again because I think that’s a settled issue at this point; they suck, plain and simple, and the suffering they caused out of “love” for Hiryuu can’t be justified by their supposed inherent authority.  Let’s also just skip your first sentence for today, anon, and instead jump into the meat of this Take — that is, that Suwon is narrow-minded and wrong for rejecting the gods’ power because of his Feelings, while Yona is superior, open-minded, and righteous for accepting the power of the gods (and any powers that will help achieve her goals, including the current political powers that make her Feel bad, which is the contrast I assume we’re supposed to be getting at here).  I want to interrogate whether this idea is valid, or at least applicable to canon, and what it really advocates for when you do apply it to canon.
First, this argument is, on its face, totally and hilariously invalidated by the newest chapter, which confirms that Suwon has been interested in Zeno for pragmatic reasons ever since he learned of his ~divinely granted~ powers of immortality.  Oh, sure, Suwon hates the gods over a “personal grudge” all right (and we’ll get to you, “personal grudge” in giant scare quotes), but it seems that didn’t stop him from considering putting one of Hiryuu’s own dragons on the throne.  This chapter also reiterates that the dragons will be aiding Kouka as part of their military alliance, an alliance Suwon not only agreed to, but allowed Keishuk to publicly promote via the tournament.  Even before, it’s not as though Suwon’s avoidance of the dragons ever translated to an out-and-out rejection, and he’s never undermined their aid.  So … power of the gods, divine powers, magic, Hiryuu Shit™ — these aren’t so off-limits after all, no?
Now, I’m not saying this new, narrow-minded fanon Suwon who arrogantly rejects the power of the gods in any and all forms doesn’t sound like a super cool and valid guy; in fact, he’s probably only a few degrees removed from Suwon’s actual character and I’d gladly defend him with my life.  Canon Suwon is a little more nuanced, though, because as much as he values people over gods, is traumatized by Hiryuu-adjacent stuffs, and has no interest in the dragons’ powers, he’s also an emotionally intelligent pragmatist.  The dragons are right in front of him right now, and while their existence is generally problematic, they’re better as assets than as enemies or loose cannons.  He’s not gonna cave to their every demand just because they’re powerful (see: when Kija tried to bait him in ch. 189), but he’s never outright rejected them.  In that case, in what particular context does this argument actually have legs?
Well, I’m pretty sure this particular Fanwon emerged from ch. 203/204, specifically, in which Suwon coolly rejects Meinyan’s offer to join forces and seize the dragons from Yona (an offer he would’ve been condemned for accepting ofc), says that he’s sick of all this talk of Hiryuu, and claims that he “doesn’t need it,”* “it” presumably being Hiryuu’s existence and divine power.  Those last two points are the true basis for “Suwon needs to stop rejecting the gods,” evidently — and imo, by examining these points you can see just how deceptive this argument is, that it’s actually centered around a clever rhetorical sleight of hand.
So, Suwon hasn’t been rejecting divine powers in practice; rather, he’s frustrated with the whole issue of divinity and claims he “doesn’t need” Hiryuu.  To which pro-Fanwons say, Hey, that’s bad and wrong!  He needs to stop being frustrated, eat his humble pie and admit he needs Hiryuu/Yona and the dragons!  And like … hang on a moment.  Why?  Really, why?  First of all, they’re already his allies and poised to fight for Kouka if necessary.  The HHB are not demanding that he say he needs them, either; they just want to help themselves and the country while having some freedoms.  And there’s no reason to assume the dragons’ powers are a net good that were absolutely necessary for the nation’s survival, either — I mean, besides Il being a worthless self-proclaimed “placeholder” for Hiryuu and Ruining Everything Ever, when pockets of your nation are just weird dragon cults that contribute nothing to the whole and straight-up kill outsiders for thousands of years, is there really any reason to think it’d be worse off without them …?  Tangent, tangent, I know — anyway, let’s look at where this would actually be applicable.  We all know the real reason Suwon would “need” Hiryuu/Yona/the protagonists: because he’d need to give up his command, his current authority, and probably the throne as well, now that he’s dying of a painful terminal illness.
Time to talk about that “personal grudge” a bit.  We all remember why Suwon is dying of a painful terminal illness, right?  (We also remember that he’s not the only one, right?)  Again, I don’t want to have to review the gods’ awfulness all over again here and I promise that this is not just an appeal to emotion.  Let’s just say Suwon’s grandpa was right and their deaths are the gods’ attempts to call Hiryuu back to heaven.  What “he needs to stop rejecting/admit he needs Hiryuu/gods” really argues for, at its core, is that Suwon needs to submit to the entity killing him and humbly rely on its grace to maybe help save the nation he loves.  That’s a really important distinction, too — this is not an argument that Suwon needs to be saved, but that he needs to surrender all agency and power to his killers’ agents in order to be benevolently granted one dying wish.
And that’s where the rhetorical sleight of hand comes in, the one that reveals that this contrast between Yona and Suwon isn’t parallel at all.  You actually said it yourself, anon, though I’m not sure if that was intentional, verbatim from this original argument, or just a coincidence.  What Suwon is rejecting isn’t the power of the gods, but just the gods; what Yona is accepting isn’t the gods, but just the power of the gods.  They are not rejecting or accepting the heavens on the same, equal terms.  Only one of these characters can actually choose to be empowered by the gods; the other can only choose to submit to being subjected to the gods’ will.
If Suwon submits to “needing” Yona and the HHB, he doesn’t gain “the power of the gods”; he loses what power he has, including his loose hold on the dragons, and his frustrations are never resolved.  Empty throne or no, this is not an argument for Yona’s empowerment, but for Suwon’s disempowerment; it merely tries to justify itself through the false framing of Suwon as an unreasonably prejudiced man next to her.  It is, at core, an argument that Suwon’s pain and striving should be rewarded with loss.
“But Yona submitted to powers that hurt her by coming to the castle!” the hypothetical pro-Fanwon cries.  Quick thinking there, pro-Fanwon!  Too bad that’s not how her arc pans out, nor how anyone ever wanted it to, nor at all comparable to his situation when she’s not dying painfully.  Mountains are often made of the ~indignities~ she suffered, but in truth, Yona almost immediately made the current regime subject to her wants and only continues to grow in power and influence because she has the privilege of divine power.  She always has the unconditional loyalty of the dragons in case things go south.  If Yona cedes ground, she can always gain it back twice over; a fully disempowered, dethroned, dying Suwon would have no way back up and nothing to look forward to.  This is not an issue of which one of them can display more righteous humility because again, the terms are not equal.  Only Suwon is being told to give up his agency because it’s the “right” thing to do.
And … yeah, to be clear, that is totally the point.  For however many people with this approximate viewpoint try to frame it with Facts and Logic about Suwon’s situation, this Take is essentially just a last-ditch justification for AkaYona becoming a vindictive revenge story.  Yona won’t consciously seek vengeance on Suwon, of course, because that would be Bad; she’ll just, you know, take everything good and meaningful away from him, denying him emotional validation as he dies painfully and/or is humiliated by her righteous godliness because the universe contrived that to be her most heroic course of action!  I’m sure those who really love this argument are aware of this, too.  idk if they realize that framing the way a character deals with terminal illness and chronic pain in terms of pride, karma, selfishness, “personal grudges,” etc. is uhhh really fucking gross please stop!, but they definitely at least know that this is the “punishment” they want Suwon to suffer.  You know, a “punishment” that he would’ve suffered no matter what he did in life, because he was born with an incurable disease caused by the same forces that give Yona unbelievable privileges as a god on earth.  This is a punishment for being born sick and daring to have ambitions despite that, really.  Very cool, no terrible implications to unpack there.
Now, do I think Kusanagi herself would subscribe to this false foil and use it to prop up Yona?  Well, I don’t think she’d take it to its logical conclusion by killing Suwon, at least, esp. since Zeno confirmed the issue of the dragons supposedly having a ticking clock themselves.  But the idea that Yona’s acceptance of divine power is somehow a great virtue compared with Suwon’s rejection of it might very well come up, because I think this mangaka is often not very thoughtful about her MC’s privileges and not very empathetic towards certain characters’ situations.  I’m not here to criticize the story, though; I just wanted to give my two cents on this Take anon sent my way.  In conclusion, uhhh thanks for reading if you got this far, I love you
______________
*Now, according to Little Miss, he says he doesn’t “care” why Hiryuu exists/came back, which is much tamer and has somewhat different implications.  I assume the original argument is based on what the fan translation (and probably ET) says and what can be extrapolated from the rest of the chapter, that being that Suwon is tired of this divinity shit being shoved in his face all the time and finds it an unnecessary and harmful distraction from his real goals.

HI hello hi :D can I... can I perhaps get some Tunes? any and all WIP tunes you're in the mood to share!! I love all ur projects c: though if you'd like me to be more specific if you have any from A Modern Ghost Story up your sleeve I would love to hear those 👀👀👀
Ooooh yes yes hello hi!!! Sharing Tunes is my passion,,, also thank you that is so nice asdfjkl;
Very funny because literally today I revamped/remade the A Modern Ghost Story playlist b/c the original didn't have the right vibes. This story is very much just Vibes atm for the most part (at least, aside from Roach), but I will share some of the Vibes Tunes. And also I will share a song or two from the separate Roach Playlist,,,,,, because yes I made a Roach playlist.
Actually one of my favorite things to do, as a lot of people I talk to on discord can attest to, is to take songs from my playlists and analyze them/explain why they relate to that story. I might...do a little of that... here.... Not to the extent that I usually do, but some of it.
Might put this under the cut actually whoops- Sorry I cannot answer asks concisely </3
So the first vibes song that I will share is The Perfect World by Marty Friedman! Just in general the vibes of apathy towards faith and accepting death, and like. Saving yourself and creating our own perfect world instead of relying on external forces... yeah <3 That vibes a lot.
Some lyrics I think are particularly fitting:
Broken people, broken feelings Feeling numb but know they're bleeding Light and darkness bond together "Faith will save you" (Yeah, whatever…)
And then also:
Sometimes we try to feel how things just used to be in yesterdays But never seem to believe in what we see today No one ever make it better, no one ever lives forever Wake me up and let me go
This song's vibes are Impeccable.
Aside from that, other songs that I think vibe pretty well are Along Came A Spider by Czesław Śpiewa (I know it's a song about World War II but the Vibes..... really feels like a good horror song in general), The Business of Paper Stars by Hawthorne Heights (which is apparently about the education system but I am relating it to my OCs because it's got good vibes <3), aaaaand Bird With a Broken Wing by Owl City (idk how to explain this one but just the vibe of like. the idea that ghosts in A Modern Ghost Story are just sad, lonely, scared people).
OKAY so now I want to share a Roach Song. The Roach song I'm thinking of is one I actually used to associate with a different character, but it's a Roach song now. That song is Kiss Me, Kill Me by Mest!!! Specifically I relate this song to their relationship with a character I've deliberately been kinda quiet about, Vulture!!! He'll be explained a bit more in part two of Vultures are Holy Creatures (the Roach Ramble).
The TL;DR of Roach and Vulture's relationship was that it was super nasty and toxic and codependent and it's the reason behind a lot of Roach's persisting self-esteem issues, and that's the vibe I get from this song </3 I'll share some lyrics I like tho:
Our tragedy Seems to be killing everything it sees Like death itself This valentine still looms In the darkest hour, the killing moon If I could do it all again
And also:
Your eyes unwind the tragedy of our lives My eyes went blind Believe when I say Hell burns bright When this night dies Hell burns bright
I kinda wanna type up a full summary/analysis of Kiss Me, Kill Me and why I think it fits Roach and Vulture, but I'm gonna wait at least until after I finish part two of Vultures are Holy Creatures.
Anyway to round this off, rather than sharing a bunch more Roach songs, I want to share songs that make me think of the other characters. Because I feel bad about how much I latched onto Roach. I won't share lyrics for all of them, I'll just share the song and explain it briefly.
Sydney Ambrose - Toxic Thoughts by Faith Marie (vibes of Syd's struggles to live up to their own expectations and their relationship with themself) (Fun fact this is also a good song for my OC Ink, but he's not in this story, and that's for very different reasons)
Yara Key - I Don't Daydream Anymore by Unlike Pluto (the vibes of this song are kind of wild but they make me think of Yara's desire to live her life to the fullest and enjoy it while she can rather than dwelling on what comes after)
Oliver Cox - It's Alright by Mother Mother (vibes of Oliver struggling a lot with his own mental health but putting off helping himself in favor of helping others, and him struggling with doubt but still trying to stand strong and have confidence in himself)
Vincent Cruz (new guy) - TV Head by Elliot Lee (vibes with Vincent being raised with very strict standards that he couldn't quite live up to and his need to lie to make others think he's something he's not so they'll like him)
Juno London - Dead Girls by Penelope Scott (honestly could vibe with most of the voids, but for Juno I relate this song to Juno's self-hatred that they mask by being an asshole to everyone, as well as the fact that they aren't a very empathetic person but still make the choice to show compassion, even if their methods are unconventional)
Asher King - Cradles by Sub Urban (also a song that applies to most of the voids, but for Asher this makes me think of her desire to mask her true feelings from others and come off as always cool, collected, and competent)
Apollo - Sleepwalk by Forrest Day (this song once again fits all the voids but for Apollo specifically I think this song fits his struggles trusting himself and his own perception of reality)
Bonus:
Vulture - The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie by Colter Wall (,,,, vibes)

23:54 it's still really weird that we are now in a position where Reynie is the one who is not trusted and Sticky is the one in Curtain's favor
24:13 and here we see Curtain's thinly veiled anger issues shining through
24:21 "the little things matter. Every minor detail, it all matters!" CALLBACK TO MR. BENEDICT TELLING THE CHILDREN THAT THEY ALL MATTER
24:55 "I can tell with complete accuracy when a person is lying." first of all, no. second of all, I cannot wait for him to talk to Constance.
26:33 why is Mr. Benedict graphically explaining the children's potential trauma so funny to me

36:17 oh my gosh it definitely is a body bag, hey Martina
36:25 yep, that's about what I expected
36:36 "whoever did this to me, they're gonna pay" oh girl do I have some bad news for you
37:12 ahhhh, so Martina is the burnt out gifted kid who keeps going out of spite and sheer force of will
37:12 everything makes much more sense now
37:30 ohhhhh my gosh feelings time
Tumblr media
37:44 "I think it's awesome." "Yeah. I know you do." THE SHIPPERS ARE THRIVING
37:54 THEY REALLY WANT TO MAKE THIS AS PAINFUL AS POSSIBLE HUH
38:10 "it's the least I can do" that's an understatement 😬
38:14 AAWWWWW SHKSHSLSBDK
38:20 "I don't know what I'd do without you, Wetherall" STOPPPPP
38:30 HEY BUD UH MAYBE CLOSE YOUR DOOR???
38:38 he's been writing letters to her every night and now he finally gets one back 😭😭
39:34 so Miss Perumal wrote this letter with the intention of it being sent to him, right- why did she write it like that?? 😂
39:34 they've gone to such lengths to communicate in code but the letter kind of undermines that- it was written in such a way that an onlooker would know Reynie was a spy but wouldn't know what he was doing or why. No wonder SQ was pissed
39:41 KATE!!
40:10 BREAKING NEWS: local bastard man treats everyone like shit
40:15 ohhhhh SQ bud please be careful
40:30 "always have time for my son," he said in a clipped voice that implied that he does not have time for his son
40:35 ohhh he's getting RIGHT INTO IT HUH
40:41 you mean to tell me he's never asked about Mr. Curtain's work?? Ever???? Somehow that doesn't seem right to me
40:57 hey uh what if you didn't talk down to SQ at every opportunity
41:02 "would you care to reconsider that answer, son?" "No." DIG THOSE HEELS IN SQ!!!!
41:22 I'm really not digging that Curtain is using the guise of openly expressing his feelings to communicate his anger and his unasked question. Not cool bitch head
41:33 the fact that he didn't answer SQ's spoken question kind of also answers his unspoken question
41:45 "I knew there was something off about that girl. But espionage?" "How do you so convincingly fake a tetherball obsession?" I love that this entire conversation could be about Martina or Kate interchangeably
42:34 WELL THAT'S NOT GOOD
42:36 IF IT WAS THAT EASY TO FIND WITH BINOCULARS HOW HAD THEY NOT BEEN SPOTTED UP UNTIL THIS POINT?!!?#? HOW????
43:05 Kate advocating for Martina with the Society 🥺🥺 the interaction I didn't know I needed
43:58 "I definitely don't like to leave anything unfinished." "That's true, I've seen you eat." PFFFFT
44:05 YESS YOU GO STICKY USE YOUR ACCESS FOR PRIME INTEL
44:19 "well, you can't succeed without me, so..." baby girl you have no idea how right you are
44:28 please let that be Milligan PLEASE LET THAT BE MILLIGAN
44:32 YEAAAAAHHHHH
44:35 I simply adore him
44:45 "would you mind helping me down, please? I'm stuck." Your honor I would die for this man
44:54 oh shit, Martina's tryna sleuth it out herself.. this can't end well
45:04 is she about to find Kate's marbles or something?? Callback to the book?
45:26 the absolute MURDER in her eyes
45:31 FUCKIN YIKES
45:41 "the clothes of someone who had given up" ASEJDGEIDNDLFK
45:47 well that's not good
46:00 WELL THAT'S NOT GOOD
46:04 PLEASE let them be on their way already, please
46:14 THEY MADE A BLIMP????
46:17 Goodyear is QUAKING
46:35 why the fuck is Number Two in red, that's upsetting on principle
THEYRE JUST ENDING IT THERE???? goddamnit!!!!
How surreal is it that next week is the finale?? Idk if I'm ready for that????

what r ur opinions on the whole tumblr plus thing?
are you sure you want this, anon? like, i know you asked for it, but i don't think you really understood the extent of what my answer would be, lol.
i'm sorry. but if you want to read my opinion, i'll put it below the cut.
thanks for stopping by, anon. i hope you're having a great day! <3
tl;dr: i think it's a terrible fucking idea.
then again, i accidentally doxxed my maiden name just last night trying to send someone a ko-fi by not double-checking my paypal settings, so idk, maybe my dumb ass would be better off if i could just support my content creators through tumblr instead.
but. that (my dumbassedry) is a separate issue, so let's move on.
listen.
i get it, okay? some people put a lot of work into the content they put on tumblr. and i very much understand the impetus to want to be compensated for that work. and tumblr feeding into that desire makes total sense from the standpoint of both their business model and the feedback i'm sure they've received from some of their top content creators.
i also think paywalls flying across your dash will eventually spell the death of this platform as we know it.
i've been on tumblr on and off before, but never really committed to it like i did this time. and one of the things i genuinely like about tumblr is that i'm not constantly being shown "sponsored content" and that i can access the information and content i want pretty freely.
i've definitely seen other people espouse this as a good thing, too; that there is certainly a more even playing field for content creators here than on instagram or twitter.
pay walls are exclusionary by nature and therefore i fucking hate them. (lookin' at you, news organizations...) what happens when someone really wants to support you but can't afford it? what happens when people get angry that they can no longer see and enjoy the content they've become accustomed to? do we really want to make tumblr the sort of place where your economic status determines which blogs you can interact with?
because if we do, eventually those folks will leave the platform and tumblr will become increasingly insular until it's just an echo chamber for the highest level content creators to pat themselves on the back.
that is my opinion. maybe i'm wrong (i hope i am), but that seems to me the logical conclusion.
there's also the issue of fan content in general and what using paywalls to generate revenue could mean for our freedom to create fan fiction and art. as has been pointed out in many of the posts circulating about this feature, people like me are able to create the content we do because we do it for free.
there is a reason i feel queasy every time i see a writer offering to create fanfiction for a price. that kind of behavior can get you into trouble, and even a small cohort of folks doing that kind of thing can spell trouble for every fan creator out there.
there's a reason anne rice's works are super popular still, but there is 0 fan content available for them. i would hate to see fandoms i love like naruto or bnha be impacted because someone saw an opportunity when paywalls started going up around content that's based on other sources.
idk. maybe part of my issue is just that i don't like change. i don't want my experience here (which has overall been super positive) to suddenly change so that a few people at the top can make some money. (because let's face it, most of us could never hope to make a profit from this service.)
the thing is, tho, i don't really know what the solution is, either. because tumblr has to make money to survive. content creators are not wrong for wanting to be compensated for their work.
i guess my thought is just to keep reblogging and commissioning and using ko-fi (with the proper paypal settings, don't be an idiot like me my god) and hope that by making our content creators feel loved and appreciated we can stave off the slow and inevitable capitalist death of a platform that means a lot to so many people.
i'll get off my soapbox now. if you actually read this whole thing (MY GOODNESS WHY DID YOU DO THAT GO TAKE A NAP YOU POOR SOUL), then i'm sorry, lol.
mostly, tho, i look forward to seeing what y'all think about this service because i'll be honest, the reactions i've seen thus far have been overwhelmingly negative. maybe that's just the particular space i occupy, but i think it's going to be hard for tumblr to justify the service moving forward now that so many people have voiced their displeasure for it.

I'm always afraid to post any DBZ oc because I'm afraid I'll get laughed at or something
IM going to be honest.  theres a good possibility that theres going to be at least one person out there who will think ur oc is silly or make fun of it or something, sometimes just because its a dragon ball oc in general.  i think about this all the time with my own ocs when i make them
BUT !!!!!!  u cant let that stop u from enjoying urself!  even if theres someone that will laugh at ur oc, theres going to be people that love them too!!  i’ll go ahead and say that i am one of those people that supports u >:3 i love seeing people’s creations!  i love seeing how they put their own twists on designs and lore and stuff !!!  feed me the ocs
circling back to the first thing, while theres a possibility that this’ll happen, its not GUARANTEED to happen. like despite how many ridiculous ocs ive made i dont think ive ever gotten made fun of for them ???  which is. VERY SURPRISING TO ME IDK but my point still stands.  plus, even if someone did make fun of me for them, i literally dont give a shit b/c i didnt make them for them lmao. i make my ocs for ME and ME ONLY.  theyre for MY enjoyment!  i encourage you to take this into consideration when you get anxious abt posting your ocs!!  theyre YOURS to enjoy first and foremost and nobody has the right to tell you how to make your ocs. as long as youre having fun and not hurting anybody you shouldnt have to feel ashamed of your own ocs and thats that
sorry this is a lot but tl;dr: POST THEM ANYWAY !!!  who cares what other people think, theyre YOUR ocs, not made for them!  i support you and id love to see them !!!
