okay so this is a stupid game that I came up with in my last post and I kinda wanna do it but it is Dumb fjfj
so IF I wrote a story (3k words) that was a murder mystery but did it without adding any names to it until the end, would you read it? Like I write the entire thing, we do polls on what the murder weapon is, what was being fought about before they died, what memory from their past, etc. and then I randomise the names and then post it. Would that be funny? I think it would be and be like an Experience, but it wouldn't be perfect and would be a bit dumb so like is that something I should do??? I'll have some time hopefully soon and I'm fully down for some stupid, so lmk what you think djfj
#murder mystery au#sunshine writes#hsmtmts#this is dumb but seems so fun would people be down to read it?#and take part in the polls and such#idk i kinda want it to be a group thing yknow idk

girl help im thinking of a major oc rehaul again
#okay. pains me to consider this twice with the main group now. but im thinking of downsizing the mcs to just asha and valerie#NOT because im ignoring skylar thats actually why this is difficult to see if its a betterchoice bc i love their relationship w asha#and i do love them being taken in by atlas but like. im wondering if its necessary#and if itll serve asha's character better if she's aloof and cold bc they've been so isolated#and valerie is the one to bring her down from that. but then that feels weird when skylar is there#and skylar couldve had that effect on her yknow and its weird that they dont since theyre so close#like idk how to make that work without making asha come across as more unlikable than they should be#bc then the implication is ''skylar is really enthusiastic and always trying to get asha to try new things and she doesnt#but then val does that while showing her kindness so clearly skylar doesnt mean as much to asha''#skylar does get an arc regarding their relationship with asha but it also feels too similar to quinn's arc w atlas#and i was trying to make it a parallel but it feels less like that and more like retreadingground since im telling both stories#or i want to anyways#and like. skylar wouldn't be kicked out of the story they'd still appear and be a character!#a main character in fact! theyre extremely important to the plot they're arguably the heart of it#(which is another reason im so conflicted)#they may appear later in the story and join later? but then they feel kinda similar to valerie augh#also im soooo attached to skylar and asha being adopted siblings :( thats been a thing since like my very very first draft#my first doodles of these characters were them hanging out and being siblings#maybe ill try and figure out a best of both worlds scenario where they can keep beingsiblings#but asha spends a lot of time with valerie alone at first#echoed voice

i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one
his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.
ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication
ok yknow what Edit: i shouldve made it even more explicit at the end of this post, i hadnt thought i would need to since i started the post with this, but i think a few too many people are missing my point so i just wanna clarify. i shouldnt have said 'really clashed' and left it at that because yeah they did, but it wasnt just their opposite methods of communication, it is also very much that toshiro was experiencing microaggressions via laios. it may have been unintentional on laios's part, but it still happened and wore him down, made it harder for him to communicate on top of both the more subtle social cues that he was raised with and his own communication difficulties. i also want to say that the fandom reaction to toshiro and the complete ignorance of this point is also racist tbh or at the very least ignorant. i understand that the anime did not cover this panel, and neither did the manga, as this was an omake, but im gonna be real with you guys. there are enough context clues within the story to clue you into this. if you didnt pick up on it thats ok, but i think this is a good lesson in picking up subtext in the stories that youre watching and/or reading. kui shouldnt have to explicitly say 'by the way laios was racist to toshiro' for this point to be understood, and at the very least, when the author portrays a character in a sympathetic light (as kui clearly does) it should make you question Why they are doing so and what makes them sympathetic, rather than youre immediate and only reaction to be 'well i hated what this guy did/said so i hate them and they suck'. idk exactly how to finish this, just. idk. question your biases and gut reactions to things you see in media and stories, and think about whether or not theres subtext that youre missing.
#dunmeshi#dungeon meshi#shuro dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#toshiro nakamoto#dont get me wrong i understand relating to a character and hating whoever wrongs them cause youre protective or you relate really hard#but i think toshiros been getting the short end of the stick for a long time now 😭#even his love for falin is misunderstood#he literally states all the reasons he likes her#and none of them are superficial#but hes so closed off and has such difficulty expressing himself that instead of asking her out or smth he just#proposed to her out of the blue 😭#leading a lot of ppl to just assume that he went 'white woman spotted' and proposed#do Not misunderstand me i am#a HUGE farcille stan#obviously#but i dont think toshiros feelings are surface level and i think theyre absolutely crucial to understanding him and his motivations#as a character in this story

Can you do a Jordan li fanfic, where the reader thinks there’s something going on between Jordan and Marie.. bit of jealousy and angst thanksss love
Idk how angsty you wanted it to be so I ended it with fluff (kinda but not really)
Jealousy, Jealousy
Jordan Li x Reader
Summary: you were never one to get jealous. Until Marie Moreau entered the picture.
WARNINGS: some angst, jealous reader, clueless Jordan
----------------------------------------------------------
You were never one to be jealous. You had established that when you had first gotten with Jordan.
Hell, half the time you two watched movies together, you both would spend it talking about which hot actors you'd fuck.
And, Jordan talking to other attractive people in real life never bothered you either. Hell, your whole friend group was full of gorgeous people.
But then, Marie Moreau entered the picture.
At first you didn't have a problem, seeing as Jordan absolutely did not fuck with Marie due to the whole Top Five bullshit.
But then they started to get closer, they began talking more, and it didn't involve as many arguments.
Now, it's not like Jordan had stopped paying attention to you all together, in fact, they still spent every day (and night) with you, and nothing really changed.
You wanted it to stay that way, but your jealousy had gotten the best of you.
The closer the two of them got, the more distance you decided to put between yourself and your partner in crime.
Of course, this utterly confused poor Jordan, but she thought that maybe you were just having a rough week.
So, when you suddenly had left their side during a party (after getting deep into conversation with Marie), she had decided to investigate.
It was Cate who had gotten to you first.
She had caught you in the bathroom with choked cries coming from one of the stalls.
She knocked on the stall door, "Y/n? That you?"
You sniffed, trying to wipe away your tears quickly, "y-yeah, what's, uh, what's up?" You ask with a stuttered breath.
Cate's brows furrowed in concern, "I just wanted to know if you're okay. Jordan's looking for you."
You leaned your head against the stall door, "are they doing it alone? Or are they with Marie?" Her name dripped off your tongue like poison.
Cate immediately knew what was going on with you by the way you spoke about Marie, and she sighed, "alone. Jordan's really worried about you, yknow."
You scoffed, "Sure, she is."
Cate rolled her eyes, "I thought you never get jealous. You seem pretty jealous to me."
You pause for a moment, "...I'm not jealous." You state defensively, crossing your arms.
"Oh, you SO are. If you weren't, you wouldn't be so distant from her as of lately." Cate stated.
"Nuh uh."
"Y/n you were literally crying like two seconds ago. Don't make me come in there and force you to admit it." She threatened, leaning onto the door.
You frowned, "I just... the way Marie keeps looking at Jordan is the same way I look at them. And Jordan..." You're voice trailed off, scared that if you were to finish the sentence, you would start crying again.
Cate sighs for the second time, "open the door."
"Cate-"
"Y/n, open this stall door right now."
You groan, standing up and unlocking the door, pushing it open slightly so as not to hit Cate.
Cate opens the door wider, putting her hands on her hips, "I assure you that there is nothing going on between Jordan and Marie. It's your jealousy talking."
"But, Cate-" you began, but she cuts you off.
"Y/n, I know what jealousy looks like. I also know what it's like to be jealous. You see things that aren't actually happening. Talk to them."
You shake your head, "I can't."
Cate puts her gloved hands on your shoulders, "you can, and you will. The solution to your problem is to talk to them. Avoidance causes more problems than it solves."
You groan once more, "fine. But I'm not gonna be happy about it. I know what I saw." You tell her before walking out of the bathroom.
"Uh huh, sure you do." She replies as she watches you leave.
----------------------------------------------------------
"Y/n, there you are! I've been looking everywhere for you!" Jordan exclaims as she finds you in the crowd.
The frown didn't leave your lips as you replied, "I was just going to the bathroom."
Jordan noticed your unimpressed look, and your eyes looked a little red. "What happened?" They asked, concerned.
You refused to look them in the eye, "nothing. I'm fine." You knew you should be following Cate's advice and talking to him about it, but you've always been the type to avoid your problems as best as you could.
But Jordan knew there was a problem. You always looked her in the eyes. "Dont lie to me, please? Just tell me what's up."
You swallowed the lump that began to form in your throat. You really didn't want to fucking deal with this.
Their hands moved to your shoulders, "please look at me." She begged.
You forced your eyes to meet their's, your heart beating just a little bit faster than you would like due to the anxiety of confrontation.
Jordan nodded at you, eyes pleading for you to speak.
You took a deep breath before pushing your fear down, "is there something going on between you and Marie?" You asked bluntly.
Jordan froze at the question, their expression turning to one of hurt at the thought of you not trusting them enough to believe that theyd betray you like that. "What? No! Of course not. What made you think that I would do that to you?" Their hands had let go of your shoulders, her eyes holding a look of betrayl.
And suddenly you felt your heart sink to your stomach. You knew Jordan would never lie to you, and to have that confirmation that it was YOU being the hurtful idiot...
"Jealousy, I guess." You stated, tears beginning to prick your eyes.
Jordan shook their head, as much as they were hurt that you thought she would betray you like that, she also understood the powers that jealousy had.
"It's okay." They replied.
Your eyebrows furrowed in confusion. It wasn't okay. Your jealousy had made you think the worst. It made you not trust them. It wasn't okay at all. You felt like you should be punished, broken up with, and yet...
"No, no its not okay, Jordan. I-I got jealous." You stuttered.
Jordan reached over to cup your face gently in their hands, "everyone gets jealous sometimes, Y/n."
"But I...I don't get jealous. I'm supposed to be immune to jealousy." You replied brokenly.
A soft, small smile appeared across Jordan's lips, wiping away a stray tear that had fallen with her thumb. "You're not immune to emotions, babe. I forgive you."
You didn't want to be forgiven. You wanted Jordan to yell, scream, kick, and punch at you. You wanted them to be angry. They deserved it.
Jordan leaned their forehead against your own, beginning to repeat, "I love you, and I forgive you." Over and over again. She knew you. She knew that you wouldn't forgive yourself. They knew that you wanted to punish yourself, but that's not what they wanted.
And he wanted you to know it.
Because jealousy is normal. It's human. It's an emotion that sometimes can't be avoided.
No one is immune.
----------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly, I got motivation to write. It's pretty long. I wanted to make it more angsty, but my heart couldn't take it, LMAO.
Hope yall enjoyed <3333
-your favourite Jordan Li writer (im kidding)

Made it to chapter 16 today which means Feyre and I have both had our first impressions of Rhysand's Inner Circle and ohhhhhhh boy
Its hard to pinpoint why exactly, but theres something so discomforting about watching them interact. I think the main thing is that for all their "casual-ness", theres still clearly a rigid hierarchy between them and they all seem to 'know their place' so to speak, its not at all like Lucien and Tamlin's relationship in the first book which genuinely felt like a friendship that was unburdened by their status or positions. Like, theres this one moment where Mor and Amren are like kinda bickering with each other i guess, and Feyre remarks that Mor is probably super powerful if she dares talk back against Amren (in an incredibly minor matter Im pretty sure but I already forgor ngl) and because this is the book where Feyre's perspective starts being Objectively Correct all the time, I guess that's true, I guess the only reason someone would dare voice their opinion on something to this friend group is if they were physically more powerful because otherwise you just level a fucking mountain during an argument
Anyway, Im gonna switch topics for a short moment but I promise this diversion is relavant to the point above. So, sometimes when I go into the anti-tags on here looking for criticisms or complaints of the books, I instead find anti-ship posts that are mainly just about trash-talking some ship, mostly ones relating to that whole Elucien/Elriel/Gwynriel shipwar, which I already have thoughts on but I'll save those for later. In any case, one day I stumbled upon this pretty long anti-elriel post about how the gifts Elain gives Azriel on winter solstice arent actually cute and it describes how she gave him like, herbs that help with headaches "because his friends are always giving him headaches" apparently. And then that post went on a whole rant about how insensitive that was of her and that she doesnt actually understand Azriel's dynamic with his close friends, but honestly, judging from this chapter Elain was absolutely spot on
And I usually wouldn't say this because yknow, its only one chapter and we're probably gonna get the nuances of their relationship later, but this is a book written by Sarah J Maas, her characters and their relationships are rarely particularly deep and, more importantly, her writing is incredibly unsubtle. If Azriel was in any way fond of his friends shenaningans I wouldve noticed it, because Feyre wouldve noticed it like 15 times during that whole dinner. But she didnt.
Its especially bad for Cassian and Azriel because it feels like Cassian thinks they have this great rapport but Azriel just genuinely kinda dislikes him. Not to mention that whole fucking mess with Azriel and Mor and Cassian and Mor having sex so she wouldnt get married off or whatever, good god how is every conversation between them not insanely awkward
Even beyond that, idk man, theyre all just so insufferable. I dont understand how Amren, ancient eldritch being trapped in a fae body that she is, can stand to be around them, I wouldve left them 5 centuries ago if I was her. I guess the explanation is that she finds the government position interesting but its like, youre SECOND to the most boring and annoying man on the planet only kinda ruling over a court that you dont even actually care about from everything Ive heard. Again, if I was in Amren's position I would not be hanging out in an APARTMENT in a boring ass city at the behest of a quartett of stupid bozos, I wouldve weaseled my way into being the personal advisor of Beron or some shit so I could watch the Vanserra Family Drama unfold live
There was one good thing about this discomforting dinner though, and that was how inexplicably gay Cassian was for Rhysand. He was really out there, looking at him with such love, calling him pretty twice in like two minutes being all "I knew I wanted a piece of him the moment I first saw him, the high lord's pretty son" like okay. I know what you are
#istg the most entertainment Ive gotten out of these books so far are the crumbs of homoeroticism#anti acomaf#anti sjm#anti rhysand#anti inner circle#flames and darkness liveblog

okay I read the doc and I have thoughts yeah!! I still believe that some of Alex’s behavior was admittedly inappropriate and a person like him should take time off the internet and get help+I believe it is possible for a person to have 20+ victims, and I think their mindset was “people Alex perpetuated a parasocial relationship with” like idk. groupchat members or smthn. but good lord are people handling this in a really immature and extreme way. I understand being so livid and angry about someone who caused you pain. but that level of just. Everything is so. Yeah!! I’m giving the plaintiffs the benefit of the doubt on the stuff that’s not confirmed yet, but mitchas public statements are just. Not excusable!! Ive personally spoken to these people before, so maybe I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt but like. idk it looks like donut just doesn’t wanna believe that their friend could be acting like that yknow. still weird of them to brush that off though.’Idk. No clue who doctored that Alex photo. I’d like to believe it was a random person stirring the pot, but honestly like. who knows!! sorry if this is all incomprehensible but it’s such a difficult thing for me to believe that these people would go to such lengths out of genuine malice to de platform some ex friend of theirs who behaved kinda shittily. But that doc doesn’t make shit look good!! it really doesn’t !! this whole thing is just awful. Thanks for sharing that document, I’ll have to look more into all this. For right now, it seems like a bunch of young people having an insane high school drama falling out that was publicised in an extremely inappropriate way. just. wild
Hi! I understand fully where you are coming from.
Mitcha's behaviour is one I've been following up close for awhile since this all started. And I don't believe they were a victim if anything other than their own poor mental health.
Mitcha accusing anarchist of faking the sh photo makes no sense. Someone looked it up using reverse image search and found the account.
I genuenly believe Alex is a woman with poor mental health and was suffering from it. She tried seeking validation from a group she thought she could relate with as a Trans woman but due to miscommunication and and people not drawing boundaries, feelings were hurt.
If Alex is a predator, then ven knew and kept it a secret up until it was convenient.
If Alex is innocent, then they all falsely accused someone.
If you want you can DM me to discuss it or just post here. I want to look into different perspectives

what are ur thoughts on bitter-root
sitting here with my hands clasped together. i have so much thoughts on bitter-root
If you've been following me for a while you'll already know that I'm CONVINCED that Bitter-roots writer only read the brief on the Great Khans and didn't pay any attention to their timeline within the games. Let me break it down for you.
The Bitter Springs Massacre was 3 years before the events of Fallout New Vegas and almost immediately following the 1st Battle of Hoover Dam. That means in 3 years Bitter-Root has gone from "child even the Khans don't consider grown enough to be a raider" to "Sergeant in a top ranking highly specialised and decorated sniper unit" that shit doesn't add up IT DOESNT ADD UP!! He explicitly says he wasn't considered old enough for his Khan initiation--which is the Khans threshold between child and adult--but he Was old enough to join the NCRarmy??? These RAIDERS thought he was too baby to be a raider but the fucking NCR said "yep sign here" HELLO?
okay let's say for argument's sake that he took a year out because he was adopted by Major Dhatri and also First Recon Snipers tend to get picked out from basic training sure sure whatever. That's still 2 years to rise to rank of Sergeant he is LITERALLY THE SECOND HIGHEST RANKED MEMBER?? IN 2 OR 3 YEARS?? okay whatever his adopted dad is pulling strings for him or something I don't know ITS STILL DUMB I'm still having to over-explain to patch up these little holes in his story
I've said it before but everything around the Bitter Springs Massacre is awfulllyyyy written. its all so so bad. Like even with laying out all the facts we do have there's still stuff that doesn't make sense. We don't know why Chance is triggered by fires as a result of Bitter Springs, etc. The thing with Bitter-Root is when he says basically that he killed his parents during the confusion UH WHEN DID HE GET TIME TO DO THAT? While he was running through the Red Pass to evacuate? no he would have been shot. In Bitter Springs itself? With that many witnesses? Even in the confusion, it would have been hard to kill two people without anyone noticing ESPICALLY if he was like firing a gun at them or something PEOPLE WOULD HAVE LOOKED idk it just doesn't make sense to me but that's a whole other thing.
to me as he is in game Bitter Root just kinda feels like the writers feable attempt at writing a "good" khan raider whose fighting for the "good guys"
My version of Bitter-Root would still be like. a child. a teenager someone as a parallel to Jerry the Punk over in the Khans. You can still have him running around Camp McCarren but yknow sticking around his dad and first recon and maybe you can have Dhatri be conflicted about Bitter-Root's dreams to join First Recon because he knows personally how awful Bitter Springs was because he was the one who had to put a stop to it and doesn't want Bitter-Root in the military at All because he doesn't want to see him grow into a heartless killing machine on Either side??? Show Bitter-Root getting blinded by revenge just as badly as Papa and all the other characters in New Vegas who are struggling to Let Go. Hell maybe he could be in the role he's in in game but he ran away from the Khans and his parents way before Bitter Springs and is more like Manny or Boone's age, and idk maybe we could have something about how he Did freeze when asked to fire on his own people or something idk anything
And this isn't me hating on Bitter-Root because I like the Khans and don't want to see anything negative about them. I do like and implement a lot of what Bitter-Root brings to the table, his parents seeming to be very staunchly of the old Khan way while the group itself has moved away makes for some Very interesting politicking within the Khans. Why else would his dad take him off to take potshots at NCR civilians if not because the Khans current government had outlawed it? Papa says outright that killing civilians is cowardly he cant be so blind that he wouldn't apply it to both sides. We also know that their chief law enforcer Regis looks out for women and cares about their independence and I cant see him being in the position of power that he's in if his opinion on women wasn't the majority yknow? So the way Bitter-Roots dad and his friends treated Bitter-roots mom goes against that. All this implies a weird subset of Khans who stick to the old New Khan ways were they teach kids to kill civilians and treat women poorly. Like a said, very interesting politicking and I love fictional politics

I feel like in general c!sbi got butchered in most common fanfiction trends because writers tended to forgo their canon relationships for much more...cookie cutter ones I guess? There's the bio family fics where Techno, Tommy, and Wilbur are all Phil's kids, the dark fics where Phil is a violently abusive parent to Wilbur and Tommy, the fics where they're portrayed as a seemingly evil group of 'good guys', etc. And there's nothing wrong with people writing these fics, I don't have issues with the individual authors, but it's tiring when these ideas become large enough that they tend to overtake works based off of their actual dynamics. Like. Phil's attempted kindness but complete lack of understanding or connection to Wilbur is interesting!! Tommy, bearing no relation to Phil, being the one to try to bridge the distance between them and being the only person to seek out his advice is interesting! Tommy and Wilbur not being biological brothers who weren't raised together adds layers to their dynamic! Techno's shifting relationship with Tommy over the course of Pogtopia to Doomsday was interesting!!
I also may be off base on this, but I feel like more often than not when an author cracks out 'The Dream Team' as the main antagonists, they're much more likely to have completely different characterization than if an author chose one of them to focus on. IDK. I think many people try to look for tropes to slot characters into, and having multiple characters with complex relationships treated in that way tends to make the results more egregious.
mmhm mmhm -- i'd say that the cc dynamics kiiiiiinda influence a lot here shrug. the idea of "sbi versus dteam" has its roots in conflicts that are decidedly not based on the dream smp roleplay, honestly, and a lot of that carried over into the fanworks that were supposedly based on the dream smp but really took a lot of creative liberties dabbling in elements of both rpf and fic about the server itself.
not that that's a bad thing, or anything! people can write what they want, etc. but it sure did lead to a lot of err misleading? i guess? "advertising" when it came to people's "dsmp AUs" -- maybe confusing is a better word. like, look ooc-ness is something that every fandom has to deal with, but in most fandoms fanon isn't so obviously based on what is still the fandom, but like. a part of the fandom that's technically kinda separated from the fiction of the fandom. most of the time with actors they don't necessarily have a whole career founded on their playing a persona with other people in a context that ISN'T acting yknow? or maybe there is it's not like id know lmao
but yeah the phenomenon of bleedover from cc personas is all too real in this fandom, for better and for worse
#i tend to find that certain 'parts' of the dsmp fandom keep the different parts of the fandom (cc versus c!) more separated as well#which influences their fanworks#my asks !!#disk horse#tw discourse#<- kinda?

Hey i recently got into yttd and i absolutely ADORE your account. May i request a (yandere of course) shin hcs for when you talk back or blow up at him. Because he's very weak i imagine he wont be able to do any physical punishments. Like maybe he does some psychological torture?
(Any pronouns work!)
A/N: ok so we’ve all accepted atp that i’m an on-and-off writer and that part of the process is disappearing for months and coming back w a post, right? right, cool,,,,,anyways theres sm more i wanna add to this one bc i got inspo from a rlly good book + some good fics i found on ye olde quotev but my typing couldnt keep up w my brain <//3
TWs: uhhhh idk, gaslighting, police mention, manipulation? Idk if ths what it is, isolation, violence/abuse mention, forced dependency, mental illness mention (idk if ths a tw but wvr), medication mention
💻tbh at first, he becomes a bit genuinely worried
💻i mean, it’s not like he wouldn’t expect you to not lash out at all
💻all healthy couples have little spats, from time to time!
💻but a part of him kinda thought that he’d be able to keep you docile enough that you’d return his feelings, and this entire thing could be avoided :(
💻that paired with the fact that it was such an extreme reaction, too,,,,
💻all he did was “fix” your phone a bit so that your calls & texts wouldn’t go to anyone besides himself and any family that you have, is all!
💻but really, it was for your own good
💻if you could see all those mean things your ‘friends’ were saying about you, about your relationship in their other group chats?
💻you would be devastated!
💻he was only helping you out a bit
💻seems like you’re kinda overreacting, it wasn’t that bad :////
💻yeah so once gaslight gatekeep girlboss goes out the window, he’s rlly left with no choice;
💻if you’re so angry at him, then leave!
💻go carry out your normal life before you met him!
💻Except with just one phone call, he’s got people all over town on the lookout for you, and actual help from law enforcement out of the question
💻after all, as far as the police & everyone else in town knows, you’re his poor poor darling, sick in the head, whose been refusing to take their medication for quite some time after suffering a traumatic incident
💻and you’ve suddenly run off! how tragic :(
💻and those blunt force trauma injuries that you “mysteriously” woke up with, after getting a bit too violent for his liking in the midst of your little outburst?
💻those aren’t helping your case <//3
💻so yyyyeah,,,,add nobody to believe you to the list of problems you currently have

Not willing to rewatch coz s1 I'm not a huge fan of and s2 is too much emotion for me rn but trying to remember Colin's character through the show. Coz in this season he's definitely all over the place.
Like in s1 I guess you could characterise him as a bit hopeless romantic, quick to fall in love, impulsive, kinda goofy. Definitely a younger brother. You could say easily embarrassed then but honestly the way he acted was hella fucking embarrassing, I'd hide too. Could be a sweet son. Not a bad friend but incredibly oblivious. Held grudges for sure.
Then s2 he was undebatably INSUFFERABLE after his travels. Pretentious and annoying. Not understanding of boundaries or able to let things go (the Maria visits). An experimental drug dude, which yknow good for him. Still v little bro energy, mocking his brothers all the time. Not alot of empathy. Very privileged - I mean they all are but compared to Anthony's level of responsibility he clearly had none. Showed some positive protective instincts, helping out the featheringtons. So in some ways shown to be a better friend but in others WAY worse - talking shit on Pen: unforgivable. So still easily embarrassed. Kind of a little shit but not particularly funny I wouldn't say? That's bendict. Not very opinionated, that's Eloise. Francesca has passion he didn't. Idk just kinda nothing in terms of ways to describe him.
Then s3. Oh boy. Suddenly after yet more travels hes a chronic flirt - no hate just a weird 180. Discovered the joys of group sex at some point - again no hate but tells me nothing about who he is. He doesnt seem to be looking for marriage? Doesnt mention any goals or interests? He says he doesnt care what others think of him but that majorly contradicts everything that came before. Then he says hes been trying to be what society wants - so contradiction again. He considers himself a flirting expert out of nowhere? Okay dude. In a desperate attempt to make them compatible hes suddenly also a gossip? Sure. Also suddenly has a study and is a writer?? Other than writing letter to Pen, where the hell did that come from? Just everyone getting completely sick of hearing his stories? y'all had 2 previous seasons to make them seem compatible, why throw this stuff in now? He's not a romantic, doesnt seem to understand why Pen wants marriage - even though was so quick to get engaged two years ago. He still doesnt have a lot of empathy really. Still easily embarassed. Not much showing him to be a good brother. Still a pretty sweet son and obviously idealised his parents relationship, that's something. Absolutely impulsive - interrupting that dance, good god sir. You could argue he was jealous in s1 so that checks out. The romantic dialogue really paled in comparison to previous seasons but maybe that is in character?
But still I try to think of his personality and Im kinda like ??
Smug. Jealous. Pretty unserious. Privledged. Sometimes protective. A newfound gossip and writer. Self conscious most of the time but other times completely oblivious to peoples social cues. Impulsive for sure. A sweet son. Meh brother. No friends, goals or talents.
I just feel like Daphne and Anthony, by this point in their seasons, were really fleshed out characters and personalities. You knew who they were, their motivations, their histories, their huberis. Its been 3 years and I still feel like we dont know Colin. Maybe because the focus is on Pen? But even then I dont know if they've hugely expanded on her character thus far.
I guess I wonder that for the people who are huge fans of Colin - why? Who do you think he is? What is his character? Do you think its consistent? Does the inconsistency make sense to you somehow? I cant be invested in this dude when I still dont know who he is (also when the actor is okay at best lbr)

This is just a your opinion owl house question, but what do you think was everyone's first reaction to Hunter's scars? Everyone knew about the one on his cheek, but I have no doubt they've seen countless ones on his chest, arms, and legs as he's wandered through the house.
The show itself shows their reactions, albeit very shortly. (I mean your answer is there! Nobody asked about the big scar on his cheek either)
If you mean as a later on, once things are quiet and okay again, I think that...
They probably don't point it out. I think if any one of them saw Hunter looking himself over and expressed sadness, they would come over to comfort.
But I don't think it's a group hug moment.
As Hunter goes around the house, I think maybe the one to express worry and concern would be Camila. You know, just to affirm that he's not in pain or if it's something he's ignoring that needs care.
If Hunter shows them off with no problem using his clothes and body language, I don't think anyone else would see that as an invitation that he is bothered by it and thus; neither should they be. If they acted all worried when he's not - I think he'd just grow insecure about it. You kinda don't point things like that out, yknow? If you do, it would make the person feel othered. Even if it's a "Oh no you poor thing :(" it would have opposite effects.
I rather think the opposite would invite concern. If he covered it up and made an effort to conceal and hide it. Then I think they would approach him about it and try to both comfort, console, and offer him space to vent. Probably end it on a note of encouragement.
You would want someone to not feel bad for their scars after all.
Idk if you've ever met people with scars, whatever self-inflicted or not, trauma related or not. But you kinda don't draw attention to it if it looks related to something that might cause a person distress or forces them to be vulnerable with you about the scars backstory. It's rude and mean.
And, for the record, its not something they should be made to feel ashamed for. Personally, I always feel like I'm in the presence of a very strong person who's gone through it.
They don't need my pity. They deserve my respect.
And I think the same goes for Hunter.

Guys can we talk more about that pre gen Ninjago 2023 concept. Having the old elementals as the main cast.
What if the show starts off with Krux and Acronix from the present of the original Ninjago, and they’ve just time travelled to before they were even villains and are just quirky nemeses of the main cast (quirky nod to the original show). Also the serpentine wars are probably also going to be mentioned.
The main cast is
- Garmadon: generally a bossy sassy guy who’s always grumpy bc of the venom and tends to be the leader since he’s the oldest. Despite it all he’s got some social skills and is generally well liked for his power. Currently on the side of good bc the venom hasn’t yet taken over. Has powers of destruction and dark energy.
- wu: Garmadon’s worried younger brother who is just trying to make sure Garmadon doesn’t destroy too much stuff. He’s genuine but also genuinely worse at fitting in with the group bc he’s more introverted (I’m riding off the fact that he decided to write Misako a confession letter instead of talking to her, not even after she didn’t get it). His fighting style relies more on technique than magics ability and it’s still ambiguous whether he has similar powers to Garmadon.
- Ray: didn’t realise he was a fire elemental and comes from a long line of blacksmithing. However when villains attacked his village he decided to become a samurai and defend it. Realises his elemental power throughout the series and learns to control it with the help of Maya. Can seem carefree and laidback and a bit of a joker but can also be incredibly stubborn and determined when he gets into it. Also wu and ray are bffs
- Maya: comes from a long line of water elementals and was trained to be a warrior elemental for most of her life. Hence she has a strict way of doing things and everything she does has to be perfect. She feels great responsibility in being the water elemental as it’s an important and sacred element. She’ll probably have an arc at some point where she learns to be messy and doesn’t have to be perfect all the time, and Ray will probably help her be more relaxed or emotional. She’s usually pretty cool headed but uptight. She’s enthusiastic about training and being organised and can be a bit critical when people don’t take it as seriously as her
(There’s not as much things to go off with these other characters so forgive me if everything else is vague)
- lightning: probably a small town girl who just happened to discover her elemental power but had no idea what to do with it. Maybe she was inspired inspired by the group to become a fighter and is generally pretty new to everything. She’s very bubbly and energetic and extremely talkative and is key on keeping the group together in hard times. However she’s also one of the more self indulgent members, and the one most likely to complain about doing super hard training. Despite that it would be cute if her character arc was about her growing into her powers and leading a more purposeful life, like she learns that she wants to fight bc she cares and not just bc she doesn’t know what to do with her powers. Also the thing with Cliff Gordon is like a celebrity crush running gag which then develops into a “Gordon gets damselled a lot and lightning has to save him” running gag bc I think that would be a cute and kinda silly romance dynamic idk
- earth: (Cole’s grandad) he’s a bit older than the other characters (only in an appearance sense to the spinjitzu bros) and he’s a travelling warrior. He was probably a hugely powerful potential ally that it was important for Garmadon and wu to recruit against the villains. I can imagine him seeming like the stern type but is actually just a dad guy yknow. Like he’s secretly a huge softie who hopes to start a family one day. I can see him and lightning having a mentor apprentice relationship yknow. He’s also got that leader esque vibe that I think it would be interesting if at a crucial point in the story he disagrees with one of Garmadon’s plans and kinda challenges his authority and it causes friction within the group. Also I just checked the wiki and apparently he was also manipulated by Chen and hypnotised by hypnobrai to betray the other elementals so that checks out.
- ice: again a bit older than everyone else but he’s kinda mysterious. Hes a renowned wandering warrior who shows up to save random villages from monsters before disappearing without a trace. Bc of this people are both in awe and suspicious of him. He actually comes to the spinjitzu brothers before they attempt to recruit him because he sees visions of the future and bestows them prophecies and is like “and you’re gonna need my help”. He’s cool like that and probably instigates main plot threads with his visions. This does mean he has room for a “don’t shoot the messenger” arc. But you could do many cool things with him and his future vision. Like he looks cool but is secretly in constant existential crises, which will also link into the general time and back in time them with this show being a pre gen and technically the audience also has future visions. And also the spinjitzu brothers are also operating on prophecies
Over all I love them and I want to draw now haha.

gielinor games s4 premiere... such great entertainment, hyped to watch it as it comes out this year but also bummed I can't binge because i crave the drama!
reactions/spoilers below
V the Victim? more like V the VILLAIN am i right? nah but even tho it's fun that it looks like he's shaping up for an early villain arc, I gotta say, i feel like most people would've made similar choices to him. getting put in the banning in the first ep and finding out on the spot that you pick your own opponent? you got no time to strategize about the value of diff choices, or to gague your own picks against what other people have done... and you look like a cocky fool if you pick someone who's better than you and get knocked out so the only logical thing is to pick someone you think you have a good shot at beating in any sort of challenge... and... no offense to her but based on today's ep and also generally what I know of the other players (some of the newcomers I'm not so familiar with)... she was the obvious choice. it's kinda on Soup too for throwing someone with so much less experience than everyone else in there... not trying to blame him lol it's still good content but it wasn't like there was a group of top tier "don't pick" players and then a group of more easily beatable players, everyone in there this year is pretty intimidating, like there's not even like a j1mmy or tanzoo or virtoso type in there of like someone who's solidly competent all around but definitely less "serious" and competitive than the ppl like b0aty/solo/etc... I guess the one other thing V could've done that probably would've come off less harsh would be to pick one of the newcomers who's mainly a PVPer and just hope it's not a PVP challenge since 1st ep rarely is, but that's risky, cuz if it IS, that just sucks. so yeah, idk why you wouldn't pick the person who openly said "i've never played on a maxed account" lol and I feel bad I would've liked to see if she could go far and score some upsets, sure, tbh I really wish there were more women in the games/in top osrs creators in general but also... in honesty, she stuck out among the bunch. all hopes for the fairer sex on zoepancakes now lol
also the amulet of choice is really interesting, removing the possibility of getting FULL immunity shakes things up, makes it tougher for someone to survive for a long time when constantly getting put in bannings but also there's probably less likelihood of ppl getting put in week after week anyway without mass voting and alliances putting the same people in yknow? and if the tribunal is always shifting and usually made up of strong players, you have to be careful which other strong players you put in, cuz they might come for you in return. (side note: them announcing their individual votes publicly is interesting, i wonder what would happen if they refused to reach consensus and each insisted on picking 3 diff people, or if they had 'consensus' but the one person changed their vote at the last minute solely to look like they didn't want to vote for that person lol). but i get why Victim picked the Sabotage choice, it plays into the villain narrative but he probably was gonna have that/have a target on his back for winning last year anyway, and that's the only one that really helps him bc protection from being picked as a banning opponent is not really attractive since people presumably wouldn't WANT to go against him as a strong competitor.
also, I have to say, it's a lot more fun to watch now that I've played a lot more in the past year and I'm more familiar with some of the content firsthand, like I had never really done DKs before this year and I might've been looking at that banning like "oh wow idk who has it here, he looks cocky, that's such cheap gear, and she's definitely better equipped" but having done them myself and brainstorming what gear I would bring in my head for this challenge (i was envisioning basically what Victim brought but just a couple more expensive swaps in the mix)... as soon as i saw the gear reveals I was like, yup he wins. The only way he could've lost was if he got too sloppy with the prayer flicking and tanked a 50 from prime and a big hit from supreme at the same time but like... he's clearly confident if he's doing it like that (i mean he's a high level pvmer so i'm sure for anyone who has done enough inferno/raids flicking 2 dks doesn't feel risky) and even if he did mess up once... he can spam eat all his food... it's not that hard to not die at DKs for ONE kill.
and i get she was nervous and didn't want to go too cheap and then die, but i was like girl, if you mainly play iron... you should know how to do DKs in some scuffed gear, right? why the hell are you bringing 2 full barrows sets and a dfs, no way you had a dfs before doing DKs first time on an iron right??? you know it's not necessary. why are you bringing a fury which is barely better than a glory and over 100x the price? lol I know it is so easy to criticize watching it at home and not under pressure but I was like, cmon, have a LITTLE confidence in yourself
lowkey bummed we didn't get to see that challenge with 2 very confident players because that "cheapest fire cape" challenge was so interesting before (tho it also had the speed element) so it would've been interesting to see if it was V up against someone like solomission or framed and they both knew the other was gonna go super low so they had to consider like... cheapest possible food, downgrading shield slot, stuff like that, leading to some genuine risk. ah well maybe there'll be another similar challenge later
anyways. feel bad for her, definitely that surprise rule change was rough for inexperienced players (wouldn't be surprised if the other newcomers are the next targets for ban partners) but it's gonna be a fun dramatic season for sure.
hoping for zoepancakes to get far at least and idk if i'm truly rooting for anyone in particular to win but tbh I love this secret alliance between skillspecs and torvesta so I hope they get far and screw with the other people lol
oh also the main challenge for this episode was awesome i loved it such a fun twist on game knowledge/mind games/memory/speed and the way it got harder each round... i do have to admit settled's strategy was super big brained... who thinks of that in the moment?? lol

I can't, I wanted to finish coloring everyone first, but. I just can't NOT yap about at least one of them. So um. Matsu. He's my favorite I think?
(his necklace and nail polish are the colors of the unit members! I haven't come up with a unit name yet tho,,)
On the left there is Toshiro's (they/he) hand (they're the unit's leader) and on the right is Fumi (she/they) (who's kinda Matsu's friend from middle school)
I love him soooooo much, I may have projected onto him a little with the whole sea autism thing but uhm. I'm not going to give any of them canon labels (except for pronouns) (I want it to be kinda like pjsk itself, but I also just want to be able to play around with ships and their identities), but!!! More about Matsu. Despite not REALLY giving him any labels, he's very much intended to be autistic. He's insane abt marine life (the projecting part lmao) and especially sharks and ESPECIALLY thresher sharks (which is the shark I doodled there beside him with uh other stuff!). Currently he's geberally pretty cheerful and excitable, actually never shuts up, he starts talking and then it's just. Forever. (Not neg I love him so so so so much). He used to kinda get bullied in middle school and Fumi was a very timid child back then and was afraid she'd also get bullied, so she just coudknr bring herself to help, and she kinda blames herself for that right now, she grew to be very confrontational and a bit overprotective of Matsu, and I have like a whole part of the story planned about them coming to terms with everything and learning to not treat Matsu almost as a child as they kinda tenda to do, and I just love these two so much. Am I making sense? Idk this is just a stream of whatever I have going on). By the way!!! The fourth character Seina (she/her) who's completely out of frame in this cropped pic usually keeps Fumi's confrontational and slightly aggressive nature in check, she's overall very caring BUT of course I put some sad story there ue ue whatever (not whatever, I'm insane about her, but I'll talk about Seina more when I finish her part of the reference).
I haven't thought THAT much about these guys' relationships with canon characters, but since we're on the topic of Matsu (are we?? idk at this pojnt), I think at some point he met Emu and they got along pretty well! Maybe even became friends!!! I think they match each other's energy pretty well, even if with all his excitableness (is that a word in english idk) Matsu is still calmer than her, they definitely have some autism to autism comunication going on. Oh!!! Also. I started thinking about the characters' habits and quirks, and I think Matsu would make EXCESSIVE eye contact. This is partially from the impact left not only by ppl bullying him, but just yknow ppl around him as he was growing up. He's learning to be comfortable with not restricting himself around his friends, but *because* he learned that it's pretty much one of the only ways to at least somewhat fit in growing up, it's hard for him. But they care about each other so so so much and I love them. I just started talking about everyone somewhere along the uhh this whole ramble, so Toshiro!!! I haven't said much about them yet. They're actually partially inspired by my super cool and awesome aunt in some aspects of appearance and behavior, but I still piled a bunch of my own stuff to not just copy a real person,,,, anyways. He's the group leader, he pretty much brought everyone together? They all kinda had some sort of connection to each other previously to forming the unit, but uh. I haven't come up with exactly *how* they're gonna end up as a. Group? Band? Ehatever they are. I think I focused way more on their personalities so far, woops. But I'll get there eventually. Anyways. Right, Toshiro. I haven't developed them as much YET, but geneeal appearance stuff: they have vitiligo, pink-ish hair? Overall mostly a pink colorscheme (they're all color-coded yay). He's pretty into crystals and spirituality in general, also has some physical stuff going on (but I haven't exactly figured out what yet), he can't do a lot of physical activity, has kinda weak bones (Seina helps him out a lot when he needs it!!!), Toshiro is overall pretty energetic and tries his best in everything, tho tends to overwork himself a lot bc he's dead set on getting better at everything and making people around him proud and just being reliable. I also plan on expanding on this in the later story, I think so far the themes I put in their unit have a lot to do with letting go of the past (they ALL have that in common), not letting others' expectations ruin you, accepting yourself, all that. I was kinda worried they were walking too close to N25 at first, but I think it's all good actually, esp when I later expand on their story,,,, oh right also Seina. I think she's my second favorite, she's. I love her. ik I said I'm bot giving them any canon labels, but Seina and Fumi are so lesbians and so I love to me. And also I get arospec vibes from Seina BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT I SHOUDL BE TALKING ABOUT. She's kinds the mom friend of the group, always taking care of everyone. As i mentioned, she helps Toshiro with physical tasks when he needs it, keeps Funi out of trouble and also helps Matsu in socially overwhelming situations MY CAT JUST FELL OH MY GOD ok ok she's okay, anyways. But Seina had "failed" to helo a friend in the past, so now she's a bit obsessed with being helpful to everyone as much as she possibly could, or else she feels useless and worthless. And guess what I also plan a whole arc expanding on it and eventually the other members comfort her and they all work on it and the others try to also take care of her, and of course it takes a lot of time, but I like the idea of her uhh healing? Development idk, THIS bring shown slowly and over time. Okay. I think I finished yapping *for now*
I haven't come up with their virtual singers, name of the unit, sekai and A LOOOOTT of other stuff yet, but uhm. I have so many ideas oh god
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE RAMBLE OH MY GOD THEY ALL SOUND SO CUTE SJDJHDNDNDNBFN I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!! this ask feels like were on a voicechat or smthn KSHDNDJD GLAD UR CAT IS OKAY IM
wow thats a lot and you thought abt their stories way more than i did for mine so far like even future developments and stuffs KSHDHDJDKCNFNNF but I LOVE THEIR DYNAMICS!!!!! Matsu has simiar vibes to my 1st pjsk oc Yuno!! theyre both energetic and full of autism so i think they would get along skdjdhbrnf IM ALREADY THINKING ABT MAKING THEM ALL FRIENDS SORRY- SJDNJCNFJD this just makes me so happy i love hearing about others ocs UR MIND!! U MADE THEM ALL SO !!!!
and id LOVE to see all of their designs when youre done with them and THE COLOR CODING!!! I LOVE COLOR CODING SJDHHFJD this is just. awesome i dont even have words just pure excitement at this point
OH ALSO BTW!!! if u wanna do relationships with canon characters i found this chart that might be helpful :3
i have no idea who originally made it cause its been reposted like a shit ton of times but!! its great and helpful in figuring stuff out :3

Oh this femininity convo is superb. I myself have recently started just being myself shamelessly, including wearing what i want without thinking will people like this or react badly or will people be disinterested in me etc I think it can be a big part of how we represent who we are to the world yknow 🤔 like i love long skirts and dresses to death (with pockets especially omg), i hate makeup (for mostly sensory reasons), i dont like shaving my pits even tho ive been told i should many times, i like boots and sneakers but also heels. I love cute delicate and feminine things but also functional and comfortable clothes. my outfits are kinda strange to look at i guess since they dont fit into any niche or aesthetic or even streotypical femininity but are rather an amalgamation of things i like that i think go nicely together and idk if i could even label it. Bc yeah i am a woman who likes feminine things but im a human being, and human beings are extremely complex and have several layers that dont fit into niches or aesthetics or boy girl categories (i also kind of hate aesthetics and how out of control its become everyone thinks they need to fit some aesthetic or category or group to be an acceptable person but yknow let's not even get into that rn bc lol thats a whole conversation by itself)
Point is we all care waaay too much what other people think and we try to fit ourselves into boxes to be acceptable and loved which is fair ig bc who doesnt want to be accepted at the end of the day, but putting on this show is so harmful to us and yet we still insist on the diets and the plastic surgery and shaming others or hating whats different. This isnt a new conversion its thousands of years old, yet we only seem to be going in circles :/
Oh anon I absolutely absolutely LOVE this for you, truly💕 I could not agree more and I think the one thing that really gets on my nerves about this whole thing is the way it is erasing all the multi-faceted dimensions that are inherent to being a human being in the first place--and that is such a deeply insidious and slippery slope to me.
I think the fact that this conversation is so old just shows how deeply important community and belonging is to us--and in a way I think it's a good thing that we are still having it because each and every time we get to improve a little; it means something, in my book at least, that even if we haven't fully succeeded in resolving it we are able, each time we talk about these things, to open a realm of possibility for someone, somewhere. And that's so important 🤍
#also dont get me started on aesthetics i absolutel despiseeeeee what they've become through social media & its Brand Management ethos#i do not need to categorise & package & present every random thing i like sometimes I Just Think Its Neat and we should leave it there ty#ask#anonymous
