Zane's identity issues.
Currently thinking about how in earlier seasons (particularly season 1 and possession) they wanted Zane to act differently than he was, whether that was by making him malfunction or making fun of his 'odd' behaviors
and then how in later seasons Zane seems to consistently lose himself, willingly or not
like he becomes the emperor and then he becomes a detective, and then a pirate captain
it's almost like at some point Zane becomes too scared to be himself (i mean that version of himself became the emperor, right?) and he knows that his friends don't like that version of him either (they've all but chased him out because of it...)
and then we get dragons' rising where he emerges AGAIN after missing so many years, and now he can't even put his own value onto Pixel, he just kind of stays home because at least he can plug himself directly into technology (he can become who his friends want him to be)
and then he finds out about the Zane festival and, amazing! maybe people do like him for who he is!
But the whole thing just seems to boil him down to a robot, the first awful truth about his identity that he realized (don't even get me started on him failing all of the tasks to be Zane's look-alike)
and he had accepted being a nindroid at the time, but slowly over time people begun to see him as 'the robot'
There's something so profoundly sad to me about Zane and his fight to be himself, to be more than just a weapon, or battery, or 'the nindroid'
Zane so desperately wants to be who he knows he is, but the world seems to put him in a box and it's easier to just make himself fit.

I have a lecture at 9. I have an alarm set for 8. It is 2am. I have just started a 20,000 word fanfiction. Why do I hate myself?

i’m absolutely in love with the jegulily band au. i hope one of you guys end up writing it! it would be so good. (absolutely no pressure)
thank you!! it started as a completely random idea last night but i've actually grown attached to it in this short amount of time hahaha it's so fun to play around with!
not sure if it will be written but @aithusarosekiller has a google doc ready so we'll see! maybe i'll write some snippets for the au too, but that's only if i have enough time. i'll probably post them here on tumblr.
summer break is near so we'll see if i can schedule working on it along with my other WIPs

Does anyone here have experience with the Modern Orthodox movement? I've been thinking of checking out a few of the more egalitarian shuls in my city (I know a few have mixed seating and are open to people who don't keep shomer/aren't fully observant) but I'm curious if they're open to LGBT people too?

Hey folks
I don’t usually post things like this, but I figured I’d give it a go!
I wrote this one shot Solangelo fic (finished it last night at like 2am). It focuses on Will as a sort of character study after TSATS. I had a lot of ideas based on the little things we learned about him through the book, and since I wasn’t seeing many fanfics with this idea I decided to write my own!
Anyways, if you’re interested here it is, I’d love to hear people’s thoughts and discuss this blond boy with others :)
