This bedtime story is for the lovely @konnorhasapen

Just rhymes

There’s a whole lotta hatin goin on out there. A whole lotta stress polluting the air, a whole lotta ego, a whole lotta fear, a whole lotta fighting and blame everywhere.

There’s a whole lotta war and not enough peace. A whole lotta law, yet murders increase. People dying in the streets, gun men rollin with police. There’s a whole lotta spies, and blinkered eyes, a whole lotta toxins, some coke with your fries? 

A whole lotta fake shit on repeat, a whole lotta hate in just one tweet. There's a war on climate, a war on meat, a war on breathing & speaking & heat. There’s a whole lotta rhythm, a whole lot of beat, a whole lotta truth that shall defeat, a light in the darkness, revealing the lies, shining upon us, Jah lions must rise

People getting busy, heads down in the sand, land grab, fuckin money grab, this shit is outta hand. Billions sent to corporate accounts, trillions given to banks. Get up, stand up it’s time to denounce, the corrupt the crooks & the cranks, the motherfuckers bringing us down, the banking cartel running this town. 

You preach about equality then hate on me for my POV. Your talk is cheap, it’s hypocrisy. You live in a cage but think you’re free. It makes me laugh, superiority, I’m better than you, my genealogy, my looks, my brains, my no apologies. My cars, my chains, my known felonies. My boat, my jet, my house in Belize, my bank accounts full, no tax bitch, please. 

I’m super fly when the stakes are high, got stocks to sell and crypto to buy, got cash piling up, I don’t even try, my rocks are blinding, they’ll make you cry and when you see it ain’t no lie, watch me wave my last goodbye, I’ll live it up to the day I die, with no regrets and no reply. 

This is the now, let it go. This is the future, let it flow. This is the present, own the show. Blazing in the afterglow, now you get it, now you know. Only love, reap & sow, only realness, feel me bro? Only music, flights and blow, only good times, up and go, only high, never low, only sky, not down below, sometimes fire, sometimes snow, sometimes fast & sometimes slow.

Get me in the studio. Drop the bass, new audio, words are dollars, values grow. Always winning, never owe. This is my scenario, new pad, new car, new barrio, new watch, new shades, new deals and so, new dealers name is Mario. Sometimes yes, sometimes no, see ya down in Mexico. Never mind the status quo, get the cheddar, get the dough. It’s all about the balance yo, roll the dice, you’re on death row. 

alt ending in Solar Lunacy chap 2 where instead of faceplanting sun lands on u and u fukcing die

my unpopular dsmp opinions, some of which genuinely should be popular

c!dream has crossed the moral event horizon and is irredeemable. once you cross that threshold, you're no longer a 'morally grey' character.

pre-recorded, heavily produced lore killed the lore. it was cool, sure, but you completely misunderstand the magic that the smp had when people watched it initially. the story is improv and that's how we like it. we can tell the cc's have lost interest in it, you can admit that to us, we'll understand, just stop lying to me.

c!dream's pov isn't necessary to understand his character or his motivations. if you've watched literally any c!primeboys stream he's basically spelled it out for you.

i don't understand how fans can dislike l'manberg or have claimed to be against it since the beginning. i honestly don't get it. what's so bad about wanting your own spot where you make your own rules and skirt accountability that has been used to technically oppress you before - and, before someone who never saw the earlier streams tries to disagree with this, the og l'manberg crew were imprisoned for shit that everyone else on the server was practically encouraged to do. also, what do you have against fun and happiness?

i think some of you forget that 'hybrids' aren't a thing, discounting c!ranboo. there's no piglin hybrids, c!techno is just a pig. there's no avian hybrids, c!phil is just a man with wings. there's no creeper hybrids, c!sam is just a creeper who's indecently exposed from the hips down. canonically there's no hybrids, and therefore no hybrid discrimination. people ran with that concept too much.

the loss and the fanon rewriting of the early lore up until pogtopia has ruined fandom perception of c!dream and the og l'manberg boys. c!tommy is more morally white than you think he is, and c!dream has always been a villain - he massacres and he kills and he destroys and he schemes and he always has broken his own rules. no wonder the boys wanted their own space after how they were treated.

i think ranboo oftentimes forgets his own lore. he brings stuff up that c!ranboo may have done, such as exploding the community house to frame c!tommy, holding onto Cat, and it goes absolutely nowhere. we've gotten all of these developments in his story but they have never been expanded on, and we're nowhere closer to figuring out his relationship to c!dream and what his other side is and honestly i see no hope that we'll be any closer to knowing even by the end of the year.

your characters don't all have to be morally grey for the story itself to be morally grey. this is fiction - some people can be nothing but evil and others can be nothing but good. being purely good or evil doesn't mean that you're one dimensional, either.

c!dream apologists have ruined c!dream for me. he's not a good person. how about you let me enjoy a villain for who he actually is, rather for than your percieved woobified ragdoll you pass off as c!dream.

the story was better when there was a central writer. it was brilliant back when wilbur wrote it to be that the environment drives the characters and the story, and it was really good in early s2 up until techno's execution day when it was more character driven. since then, the amount of autonomy people have over their characters without any central 'director', as it were, has been a detriment to the story overall. there needs to still be one overarching figure or director or writer.

not everyone is a main character. just because they have a pov, doesn't mean they're a main character. some characters have such little impact on the overall plot and describing everyone as a main character oversaturates the story and makes some characters seem more important than they are.

the egg lore had so much potential up until it didn't. all that built up threat that we were expecting and we still don't even know what the egg wants really other than just controlling people. does it hatch?

genuinely, if there's no major plot developments by the end of the year (and let's be honest, it's a very big possibility at this point), a few of the more prominent members of the server should do a podcast style stream talking about where the story would have gone, because at least then we would have gotten somewhat closer to a conclusion.

c!techno is a villain and an asshole and a bad person. he stops caring for people once their interests don't align with his or if they look at him funny. he makes meta-jokes about his own tyrannical and oppressive nature. stop taking that away from him. he's a bad person. cc!techno does a fabulous job portraying that in a comedic manner and the balancing of him being a deeply flawed person with deeply flawed morals and ideas with his comedically-portrayed stubbornness and lack of willingness to hear out opposing viewpoints is incredible. i want to like characters who are arseholes for the sake of being arseholes, and who refuse to take into account the hurt they've caused either out of self-righteousness or because they don't care, so let me. he's the anti-peacemaker, LET ME HIM ENJOY HIM FOR THAT!!!!

i think tommy and wilbur's way of doing lore is my favourite. relies heavily on improv, voice acting, sprite acting and facial expressions. really shows off the acting props and they pull off the emotional moments well for the insanity of the creative medium.

i'm not a fan of fan-music. i find songs about media i'm into difficult to listen to. coincidentally i'm also not a fan of shit like slam poetry or live music/musicals/pantomimes.

the death of l'manberg killed people's motivation to go on the server casually. i've talked about it more in depth before, but destroying what was a central, driving environment for the story killed momentum and motivation. imagine in an episode of she-ra, the princess alliance just nuke the freight zone and all of the members of the horde just have to deal with it. that would be shit.

until season 3 has some momentum, i'm counting the end of the smp as january 20th. that had a conclusion. season 3 has... whores, technoblade and tommyinnit. that's about it.

i wasn't a fan of the development of c!tubbo joining las nevadas. i preferred snowchester and the walled city conflict. give c!tubbo some backbone and some badassery. also tubbo where's the fucking nuke bro if you're shelving that plotline just tell us on like an alt stream what the plan was i beg

add like 2 or 3 new people to the server so that michael mcchill has someone to talk to and so that there's something always happening on the server. it gives the og's more motivation to return if things are happening in and out of canon and it'll help with momentum, and who knows? maybe they can write their own story/stories.

i really think that c!sam is an underrated character. he's multilayered, extremely interesting, and the dichotomy of his loyalty to his job and how far down the rabbithole that's taken him versus the genuine love he has for his friends that drives him to do what he does out of wanting to do right by them is brilliant. i don't talk about c!sam enough.

STOP HAVING FUCKING VILLAIN ARCS!!! I'M FUCKIN SICK OF IT!!!! i want to see more characters who see everyone else being absolute selfish, abhorrent cunts and go 'if nobody else is going to be a good person, i fucking will'. GIVE ME SOME MORAL WHITENESS!!! IT'S INTERESTING AND MORALLY GOOD CHARACTERS ARE FUN!!!

let tommyinnit build cobblestone towers. everyone bullied him too much for how ugly they were and the one he built outside of the prison looked genuinely really nice. it gives the boy something to do.

i'm a fan of the revive book and the canon lives system. don't ask me why, but i think it might just be the morbidity of it. it adds to c!dream's god complex persona, and i think the fragility of death itself is a really fun concept. not enough fan cc's have made connections with that and c!mumza, and it could make for cool fanfic.

ranboo your house is fucking ugly. it's an eyesore

c!niki, and to some extent now c!jack and c!fundy, are boring me and ruining my mood. i think c!jack is the closest to being an actually interesting sympathetic villain, mainly because nobody else seems to realise that c!niki is a villain. not a good one imo, but she's a villain. c!jack just has the problem of starting a new project over and over and over and over again and because of the slow in momentum for the primary cast, there hasn't been a lot of recent development for him.

not really a dream smp opinion, but if philza went full geordie accent, i would love it. i want him to, in canon, say shit like 'me n ye' instead of 'me and you' and use geordie dialect. i want him to be physically unintelligible because it's funny.

i don't really know what's up with c!foolish but i think he's a dumbass. he had a while to think about c!q's proposal and then changed his mind about joining the guy to admitted to letting him die just because. moron

i wish there was more c!eret lore. i wish he was an actual king with an actual kingdom and actual subjects and royal advisors. c!eret is far too fucking cool to be the king of nothing and nobody. fatten up the kingdom and the castle with people who work with c!eret, and don't just make it tyrannical and dictator-y to prove the point of the server's 'anarchists'. make it a healthy working environment, please - if you want moral greyness, have 'anarchists' who claim to care about the welfare of the server oppose a kingdom of happy people under a fair and just ruler because their ideologies clash.

the server needs more characters who oppose anarchy in more peaceful ways, or passively wish for systems to be a part of. i think a chaos vs order conflict ending only in mutual understanding where everyone understands that they should just leave each other alone would slot nicely into the story that's been created so far.

you need to have watched all of the previous arcs to understand the story. i've seen people argue that they don't need to know about earlier lore to understand the prison, but that's the equivalent of only watching the final season of pretty little liars and expecting to understand the context of what's going on.

some characters aren't that morally grey. some characters, take c!tommy for example, are definitely on the whiter side for the morality scale, he's just an asshole. he's abrasive and rude and a dickhead but he also doesn't agree with terrorism, he's patriotic, he strives for a better world, he's apologetic, but he's also a fucking BITCH.

you can add onto this if you want, but not if you're a c!dream apologist. nobody likes your opinions

HOW did the lan bros ever reconcile the whole "did you really fight 30+ of our esteemed clan members & break so, so many lan principles?" "did you really stand up at the pledging & swear along with the others to kill wei ying?" THING? like... jiang cheng got a decade-plus to sort out his feelings on his own (yes, he's super traumatized, but this is a lan bros ask. Yunmeng bros reconciliation is its own deal). The lan bros had to look at each other (and AFTER each other) that entire time like HOW

oh they absolutely understood what the other one was about

and to drive that point home, I first gotta refer all of you to: THIS POST by @baoshan-sanren that explains the difference between an individualist and collectivist society, and THIS ONE by @acutebird-fics that talks about LXC’s motivations re: LWJ’s punishment

Basically, LXC knew from day one that a) LWJ was hopeless for WWX and b) that WWX would be trouble, there was just absolutely no guessing how much trouble. There’s a lovely conversation they have about halfway through everything unfolding, when LWJ asks him something along the lines of ‘are there set rules for everything in the world?’ and LXC basically goes ‘look, I thought so too, but then I did A LOT of reading from the one source everyone always told me would have all the answers (aka all the Gusu texts), and turns out... yeah, not so much. Can’t predict EVERYTHING.’.

And this really just precedes everything LWJ goes through because of WWX, on his behalf, and it also explains why LXC never once falters from his side. Is he heartbroken to see LWJ like this, sacrificing so much for the person he loves the most but is incapable of saving? God damn, of course. Is he appropriately horrified, watching him stand against the elders of their own clan? UH-HUH. Is he maybe the one to finally gently knock Wangji out when he won’t stop attacking, apologizing all the way but absolutely determined that this can’t go on any longer? ...I just thought of this and made myself sad, so who knows.

But like, he understands. He’s never shown disparaging LWJ for his choices. He is shown trying and failing to get through to WWX and explain to him that certain people care about him, and if he could please think for one second about those people’s feelings. He wants to protect Wangji with everything he’s got, but he also knows he ultimately has to let him make his own choices, and can’t really save him from the fallout of those.

And true, we never really get to see how LWJ reacts post-punishment, we never get those sweet sweet Twin Jades talks we so deserve, but. LWJ absolutely understands LXC’s choices, too. Because his are his own, and he wouldn’t dream of asking his Sect Leader of a brother to follow him and WWX down that single plank bridge, ever.

And besides, by the time he’s standing up against those sect elders, we’ve been afforded the luxury of his and WWX’s POV for ages, we sympathize. However, if you look at it from literally any other point of view, he’s chosen to defend a mass murderer and a guy who’s disrupted the very fabric of what that culture believes to be right, against his own damn family. It’s romantic for us, because we’re supposed to see it that way, but holy shit, dude. Like, from the point of view of someone raised in an individualistic society, of course it’s brave and heartwrenching and ultimately amazing, what both LWJ and especially WWX do, but when you take the time and learn a little bit about just how big of an issue disrespecting the dead like that is to that culture (I can’t claim to be an expert, others would have to take over here), you realize, okay, wow. This is kind of a big deal. 

As to why LXC went along with LWJ’s punishment in the wake of all that? I refer you to the posts linked at the top, they’re both very important to this part of the discussion. It’s honestly doing the characters a bit of a disservice, not considering other angles and points of view, but to get back to the point of this ask and answer, fics where LWJ goes around actively hating LXC in the wake of all that do not sit well with me - like, he is aware which hill he’s chosen to die on, so to speak. Does he regret it? Abso-fuckin-lutely not. Is he going to accept the punishment anyway? Yeah. Is he going to understand that LXC did what was in his power to support him when it mattered, but ultimately had an entire sect to think of? Come on, of course.

In a perfect selfish individualistic move, LXC could have said fuck it and stood by LWJ’s side, refused the punishment the elders came up with, et cetera. Hell, we could spend ages speculating about what would have happened differently if he’d, say, sheltered the Wen, or even spoken out a bit more loudly in their favor. But we absolutely cannot take these characters and regard them outside their circumstances, outside their responsibilities and duties. WWX makes breaking the rules look easy, LWJ suffers for it but it’s ultimately framed as this grand romantic dramatic thing. LXC does his damnedest to keep his sect afloat while also being scared shitless for his little brother, probably, but we are not afforded the luxury of that POV, now are we.

In conclusion, I don’t think for a second that these two could ever hate each other, or look at each other and suddenly not recognize who the other one’s become. Unlike JC and WWX, these two don’t have any secrets in front of each other. They don’t feel the need to keep any, because the other one knows them as well as he knows his own heartbeat. They don’t fall into the good old ‘I’m going to protect you and not tell you about it and never talk about our feelings and it’ll work out somehow’ emotionally repressive grooves. Of course they have their issues, and of course Wangji probably resents everyone who tries to talk some sense into him immediately after WWX’s death, but this is Xichen we’re talking about. Wangji cried in front of him and only him when they were little kids, and he can cry in front of him now, only half because of the bandages Xichen is changing on his back.

Even after everything, especially after everything, there just simply isn’t a place for hating their brother in either of their hearts, is the point I’m trying to make, I guess.

Marble and Sandstone by red_camellia

rating: G words: 12,937 chapters: 2/2 

author summary: Miya Atsumu only cares about volleyball and nothing else. That is, until he develops a strange obsession with the marble statue of a young man that seems vaguely familiar in his university's arts department. One day that statue comes alive as the very real Sakusa Kiyoomi, and they are left with the mystery of why Sakusa Kiyoomi was turned into a statue and only came back to life when Atsumu touched him. Their new-found connection and the strange mystery turns Atsumu's life upside down, not least because of his growing feelings for Sakusa.

Well, if Atsumu’s being honest with himself, it started way before that, but he’s not, so that’s besides the point. And thankfully, he’s just petty enough to blame all of his problems on a thirteen year old girl.

rating: T words: 5,137 chapters: 1/1

author summary: Kuroo’s gaze flits over to the utensil. His eyes bulge out of his skull. “Wh—is that a meat hammer? Put it back!” Akaashi’s head recoils back in confusion. “I don’t understand the problem here.” “Why on Earth have you got a fucking meat hammer? We aren’t going to kill somebody!” “Well,” Akaashi begins, clearly taken aback, “I apologise for assuming. I had heard Kenma-san had been hurt in school and after getting a message from both of you to meet late at night, I merely filled in the blanks and assumed we were going to beat someone up, for lack of a better term.” “Not literally! I meant metaphorically, or figuratively, or something!” “Idiomically?” “That isn’t a word, Bokuto-san.” “Jesus Christ,” Kuroo groans, dropping his head into his hands. “We're going to jail."

my notes: bokuaka and kuroo are ready to beat someone up for kenma!! and we stan!! 

Cherry Pits and Cat Tattoos by strawberryriver

rating: G words: 6,141 chapters: 1/1

author summary: 

Kuroo has been in communication with his soulmate ever since they were kids. They've known each other for so long that he never really worried about when or how he would meet them. At least, not until he meets the roommate of Bokuto's soulmate.Soulmate AU in which things written on your skin show up on your soulmate. Companion piece/same AU as Serendipty

--------------------

Kuroo Tetsurou liked to write on his arms. Despite his mother's half-serious warnings about “ink poisoning” or staining his skin, he insisted on marking his arms and legs wherever he could. Not like his best-friend-since-always Bokuto Koutaro, who had to write on his arms or he’d forget to breathe, but artfully. He’d draw designs, animals, the occasional chemical compound. The whole idea behind soulmates fascinated him: how one person could mark their arm and someone potentially thousands of miles away, would have that same mark appear. The amount of articles, studies, and books he’d read about the topic, even at a young age, could put an undergrad researcher to shame.

my notes: again with the soulmate au bc i cannot help myself. but really cute!!! probably gonna read this again later!

my notes: a very good voice actor au. there is some misunderstanding on hanamaki’s part bc he didnt finish listening to matsukawa, and this is really cute and i love matsuhana. 

In A Quiet Night, All Sounds Carry by levyovochka

rating: E words: 4,794 chapters: 1/1

authors summary: “Ah, ah, Too—!”

Hanamaki hates his university dorm.

“—ru, let me cum, please!”

Hold up. That’s a fucking understatement. Let him rephrase it: Hanamaki loathes his university dorm with passion. Detest the damned abomination, abhors it—

“—ru! Coming, coming—”

It has only been a month and Hanamaki already wants to die.

my notes: as u can guess minor iwaoi // rlly well written and bottom hanamaki rights and maybe my favourite matsuhana smutfic??? and hooh boy i simp for matsukawa

call me maybe by totooru

rating: T words: 33,689 chapters: 14/14

author summary: Hanamaki texts the wrong number when trying to extort tips out of Oikawa in order to defeat Iwaizumi in arm wrestling, and then continues to text the witty stranger who had answered.

my notes: minor iwaoi, daisuga, bokuaka // god i think this is my favourite matsuhana fic overall, maybe in general, but my god is it great. this is probably a common rec, but its understandable as to why it is. basically au where makki texts matsun (who goes to karasuno) instead of oikawa for tips to beat iwaizumi at an arm wrestling match. but they keep messaging. and holy shit i love their conversations. please read this, it is 256/10

there we go!! i might go a part two with more ships (kagehina, tsukkiyama and iwaoi) but this took up way to much time lol. i have an essay due in a couple hours. but hope u like these fics as much as i do!!

opinions from someone six months behind on dsmp lore

im so fuckin salty mate i just rewatched like 3 of tommy's vods and as 0 of you know i am a tommy apologist.

first: all this is lighthearted except about c!sam i fuckin hate that guy like genuinely loathe him (sorry not sorry, as i said im a tommy apologist). from here on out unless i specify otherwise these are all talking about the characters. im not here for discourse or anything just here to have a good time lmao

second: FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM see i haven't been Keeping Up With The SMP so i just thought sam was a little bit of a dick trappin techno in prison because techno was the only POV i'd watched at that point bc i am a cc!TECHNOBLADE ORIGINAL (i am also a technoblade apologist but i never took any side on the betrayal because i didn't know anything about it. no my stance is not changing yes i can be an apologist for both characters) but that's besides the point, i knew sam and quackity were working together and mmmm i hated quackity almost as much as i hate dream but holy shit. holy shit. rewatching tommy's vods has given me a whole new perspective.

new perspective number 1: FUCK SAM FUCK SAM

NP #2: MAYBE QUACKITY WAS RIGHT, YOU KNOW. WHICH IS KINDA CONFLICTING BECAUSE FUCK SAM RIGHT??? BUT ALSO MAYBE QUACKITY WAS RIGHT. SIMPLY FUCK DREAM TO HELL AND BACK FUCK HIM TO HELL AND BACK I WILL FUCKING E N D H I M.

np #3: i already knew this but it's only been cemented that tommy can do no wrong.

np #4: i am a dsmp OG as well. i fell off around november/december/whenever ghostbur arrived. i had ghostbur for five minutes and i liked him but i wasn't really sure of him because i didn't know what purpose he would serve for the narrative. however, rewatching tommy's vods, i am so mad. i am so mad. I have never hated a character more than i have hated Dream because he got rid of my SWEET FUCKER GHOSTBUR. NO. IT'S NOT TOMMY'S FAULT. IT'S FUCKING SAM'S FAULT. HE LITERALLY SAID "I LET YOU DIE IN THERE." THE ENTIRE REASON GHOSTBUR IS GONE IS BECAUSE SAM LET TOMMY DIE SO DREAM KNEW IT WORKED. source: trust me bro im 1000iq

np #5: i had ghostbur for a day and a half and something happened to him. something fucking happened to him. SOMETHING FUCKING HAPPENED TO GHOSTBUR IM GONNA RIOT IN THE FUCKING STREETS--

np #6: ok this is actual criticism but revivebur doesn't feel in character. i don't know much past that first long stream with him and tommy going around everywhere but he feels arbitrarily changed and his knowledge and motivations and the things he says don't coincide. it really doesn't make sense. i do not understand his character. it's very clear that he's buttering everyone up to do some major thing (what in the fuck is the project) but also ?????why.

please talk to me in the replies i am lonely it is 2am.

Bro you have destroyed me, utterly and absolutely destroyed me with ch 19. I am STILL CRYING and I am NOT OK but OH MY GOD ITS S O G O O D. The whole end of chapter dialogue I was just bawling and internally screaming and oh my god Anakin what did you expect to happen did YOU FORGET HOW STABBING PEOPLE WORKS I’m not ok but I’m also so floored by how good LT is 24 fuckin 7 and I love you even if you hurt me lmaoooo

Thank you!!! (im sorry lol)

LT Spoilers: When I sketched out the scene and hit on the exchange of “You were the one trying to kill me” / “But I didn’t want you to die!” I felt like I had unlocked something fundamental about Anakin and the whole scene unfolded from there. “Why?” / “You needed me to” unlocked Obi-Wan’s POV in a similar way.

I am also just so so so glad to hear that the dialogue in that section didn’t end up feeling melodramatic or cringe or any of the thousand other things I had anxiety about haha it felt right to me and it seems like it hit right so that’s what we like to hear!!

these are a few of my faaavorite fics ✨

not that anyone asked for my opinion BUT these are a couple of my… fav deh fics of all time!* they’re all linked to ao3 and i think i have all the authors tagged that i know of that has a tumblr so

*i made this list especially for fics that aren’t, like.. as well known as some of the Popular Fandom Fics, partially bc everyone’s already read them and knows how awesome they are and partially bc otherwise this list would be ten pages long hehe,,, also sorry if you’re seeing this twice, i had to repost bc the links were all broken ?? 

throwing under a readmore bc this is a chunky boy!!!!! keep in mind that these aren’t in any particular order:

in the in-between - chchchchcherrybomb, vinegar-and-glitter (x) [tree bros] – Connor’s turning 27. Evan’s sitting the bar exam. Over and over again. – itsa timeloop au!! i’m not sure if this is a common au or not, but i’ve never read anything else like this before, and ohhhh my god. each chapter is a switch-off from connor’s pov to evan’s pov, and i assume the authors each wrote for one character (?), but oh my god their writing works so well together?? they both have distinct styles and ways of writing but it flows together perfectly,, without spoiling anything, ev and connor’s dynamic in this universe is a lot different to anything else i’ve personally read before, partially because they’re quite a bit older here than in canon (which, while is obviously portrayed, they still are easily recognizable as the characters they are in the musical), and partially because it strays away from the common ‘they’re both misfits/not doing great, but connor is worse for wear and evan has to save him’, which i think is rlly nice.. (also, like, never have i ever considered that evan would want to be a lawyer, but after reading this fic not only am i sold on it but i’m convinced 100% that him being a lawyer could genuinely be fuckin canon) (also also, the evan characterization in this? hands down my favorite out of any fic i’ve ever read tbh) the world building is really incredible too - like, i don’t even want to consider this one a fuckin fic bro because it’s like highkey just this incredible novel?? it also has a completed sequel called it’s always been you (x) that i haven’t finished that takes place after the events of this fic, and so far?? also fucking incredible 15/10 i definitely recommend

lapse - cecropia / @wildflowermonet (x) [tree bros] – “For what it’s worth,” Connor says casually, “I don’t think you should die tonight.” – welcome to another installment of ‘kayla read this and immediately couldn’t think about anything else for a solid consecutive 12 hours’!! evan and connor have really wonderful characterizations in this one too - i’m pretty sure i’ve elaborated on it before but literally my favorite thing is when people actually write evan as more than an anxious kid, and omg this author did that perfectly asfjkdsg - you can see the subtle Growth as he gets more comfortable with connor and jared (and all the other deh characters too bc this fic has a lovely fOUND FAMILY FINISH AT THE END EEE) and it’s just. aaaah. *heart eyes emoji*. it’s set in their senior year, and they form an unsteady friendship and learn to lean on each other and figure out the whole ‘having friends’ thing, midway through evan realizes he’s a-pinin’, it’s just. Great. this fic is relatively new too i think so u def def def should go give it a read and give the author some love!!!!!!!!!!!

to have a friend - demistories / @transanabeth (x) [tree bros] – Pretend to be friends with Connor Murphy, who yells at people and skips class to smoke and pushes people and threw a printer in the second grade, for twenty dollars a week.

Evan closes his hand around the bill and then stuffs it into his pocket.

“I-I’ll do it.” – ok this is one of, if not, the first fic i’ve ever read coming into the fandom, so it of course has a rlly special place in my heart!! it’s a classic ‘fake dating au’, also with switching povs between chapters. connor offers evan 20$ a week to be his fake friend, almost follows through with the events of the musical but doesn’t, finds out about evan’s own attempt, and they just sorta… cope together. it’s a lot of second guessing bc neither of them knows if the other considers the other a friend or not, and ofc when the fake dating part comes in that gets amplified by 10 asdfghj. honestly i think it’s a cooler approach to the fake dating au troupe (the chapter titles are increments of 20$, which honestly is equally cruel as is creative) and is so!! heartwrenching!!! it’s been a while since i’ve read it but i’m pretty sure that i bawled at the twist so >’D

the only thing is that this fic isn’t finished and there isn’t an intention for it to be finished from what i know of(?) - the author included a brief synopsis of the ending to tie loose ends and give a sort of closure to the fic, but that absolutely doesn’t take away from how freaking incredibly written it is and doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give it a read anyway !! i kept up with it while it was a WIP and honestly every time i got the email notification that it updated i dropped everything to fuckin read that shit 😤😤 when i think of deh fics, this is honestly just one of the first that comes to mind for me just bc it was one of the first ones i’ve read, and it just… was so good that i still think about it months after i read the last chapter safkjasf

no comfort in the truth - @nothingunrealistic (x) [kleinsen] – Like everyone in the world, Evan has the last words his soulmate will ever say to him on his skin.

Evan hears a lot of last words during his senior year. – okay if this were an accurate list i’d literally have every drabble soph has ever written down on here but that is entirely beside the point

literally knowing beforehand that this is a kleinsen fic and then reading the summary, u kno this shit is going to be painful ,, honestly this style is one of my fave fic formats (especially when it comes to writing in the canon deh universe) because like ,, it’s simplistic but works really well as a story-telling method?? not everything has to be perfectly strung together and every day doesn’t have to be written out for it to still convey the same like.. impact as a super long fic would, and honestly writing it in like flashes or snippets makes the build up that much more anticipating? bc again when u write within the events of the musical it’s not like u don’t know what’s going to happen,, u can focus less on worldbuilding bc hey, it’s already done for u, and instead write more indepthly about the topic of the soulmate au!! but uhhh REGARDLESS soph is literally the kleinsen matriarch in my eyes, they always write evan and jared w/ Perfect characterization and dynamics and just Ah! this one is angsty, but it has a v nice and hopeful ending, and i *clutches heart* love,,,

nowhere else i’d rather be:  nosecoffee / @nose-coffee​​ (x) [tree bros] – A fake dating au where they’re next door neighbours, Evan bakes, and Connor’s already a little in love with Evan anyway – this one is a series - the first fic kinda Establishes stuff and the second one gets into the whole fake dating thing!! they live in apartments next to each other, evan bakes for connor, they go campin with connor’s family, it’s just….. rlly sweet and i love it

also, it contains this hilarious bit that i haven’t been able to forget about despite finding this fic months ago:

do me a favour - can your heart rate rise a little? - nosecoffee / @nose-coffee​ (x) [treebros]

an au where the hansen family owns an arcade….. honestly what more can i say?? it’s slowburn and treebros and i p much love everything that nosecoffee has written ever so this is no exception obviously

jared and connor vs. the mortifying ordeal of being known - caswell @techconsigliere , puglebug @puglebug (x) [kleinphy] – Jared is admitted to group therapy following the divorce of his mother from his asshole father. What he doesn’t anticipate is that Connor would be there, too. – THE KLEINPHY CONTENT WE ALL DESERVE BEING PROVIDED TO US BY CJ AND EZRA!!! it’s a one-shot with just enough slowburn to keep you 👀 , jared is working through some stuff and after some fumbling connor is w/ him to help him thru it, the end of this fic has my heart aching the entire way through every time i read it and it’s just… *chefs kiss* (i even drew some fanart for it if you’re ever so inclined)

forever going with the flow, but you’re friction - lizzy_stardust_18 @delightfullyanachronistic​ (x) [band trees] – Zoe knew that of all of the things that her mother had expected from the evening, Evan Hansen showing up at her door with his arms full of her drunken daughter was not one of them. – big bet i wasn’t getting through this list without including fiona’s fics, are u crazy??? BUT this one is set a year (?) after the events of canon, zoe’s at a party and evan finds her, and they talk about stuff n’ things - there’s also a sweet moment in there between zoe and cynthia (in which cynthia is Rightfully Skeptical of evan) which is v wholesome and Refreshing because honestly the murphy parents never get written in a good light and fiona does it ~ perfectly ~. lotsa metaphors. evan and zoe are big dorks. evan is a taylor swift stan. what isn’t there to love

i can’t call you a stranger, but i can’t call you up - lizzy_stardust_18 - @delightfullyanachronistic (x) [kleinsen] – Jared fiddled his thumbs. He wished more than anything that he could move to a different seat, but causing a scene at Heidi Hansen’s wedding reception wasn’t exactly high on his to-do list. Besides, he was an adult. He had a job. He ate ramen only three times a week. He could handle a simple social interaction like a real human being. He was lucky that no one else had found their seats at his table yet. It gave him time to gather his wits about him. He drummed his fingers on the table nervously. – jared and evan are forced to talk after the events of canon via sitting next to each other at heidi’s wedding. they argue a bunch bc jared is still rightfully hurt, they discuss TCP and jared’s treatment of evan over the past couple years, they fight it out and then we learn some jared backstory and then there are tears and it ends on a fluffy + hopeful note!! good shit !!!!

Hajime Hinata rant (positive)

I typed this one up just now and it’s not nearly as long and i feel bad but here ya go even though literally no one cares

I rlly honestly love Hajime a LOT

with him being the protagonist and you seeing stuff from his pov it’s very, very easy to get invested in him, and yes that’s normal for a protagonist since they ARE the protagonist, but i was just so

god damn intrigued by what was going on with him and felt for him so much throughout the game- i almost cried when it was revealed he was a reserve course student, cause the kid just wanted so badly to have some fucking confidence in himself

and then to have the weird guy, the outcast, the guy who admired /him/ so much in particular, suddenly hate him and constantly insult him? salt in the fuckin wound bro

Plus all the shit with his fucking identity being erased- god that’s a whole other beast

It’s just so god damn heartbreaking

The Hajime Hinata we know got his life stolen from him because of awful, dangerous experiments and transformed into someone who is (in my opinion) awful. Rude, arrogant.

Only to have those memories taken and replaced with a teenage life of murder and sadness

Like??? THATS FUCKED UP

Plus, seeing Hajime be a mixture of very realistic but still trying his hardest to push himself forward, only falling into deep despair for a moment at the end of the game as he struggled with not wanting to essentially FUCKING DIE vs the fate of the world, only to pull himself out and create his own future (with the guidance of chiaki) is just such a lovely, lovely change

I love his development so fucking much

Plus, the juxtaposition of him, (as much as it pains me to say it) a relatively down to earth normal character in terms of personality and design, being surrounded by all these wacky more emotional people is just- It’s funny, and it’s interesting as it sort of serves as foreshadowing to what he really was and I LOVE THAT

I just love Hajime a lot and I don’t mention the kiddo enough so take this long ass rant

Cactus, a Love

I missed this… I hope you did too. Drop me a line and like and reblog!! Validate me! Also this is all written from Harry’s POV cause I never really did that much while writing the bulk of Cactus and we need it.

Cactus, a Love Summary: It wasn’t just Jamie who caught feelings. This kind of love takes two. The Styles Warnings: Fluff, some sexual thoughts and behavior. Intense flirting and some dirty talk. Teasing mentioning of daddy kink.

She was a stunner.

Small and delicate, with tiny hands and platinum blonde hair that fell in thick spirals past her shoulders. She pushed some of that hair off her face as she turned towards him, fingernails painted a brilliant coral and reached to set her cactus shaped mug on the table in front of her.

She stood, pausing to shake out her skirt and he caught sight of few words tattooed under her collarbone in an elegant script. His eyes drifted slightly lower and it took every bit of politeness and gentlemanly manners instilled by his mother to lift his eyes to her face and away from possible the prettiest cleavage he had ever seen.

Honestly.

Shit…. I am fucked.

She smiled, offering her hand to shake. Her free hand nervously smoothed at her pretty, white maxi dress, muscles gliding gently under the smooth tattooed skin of her forearm.

“Jamie Schwartz.”

His eyes jumped to Jeff Bhasker as his hand completely swallowed hers. Jeff grinned.

Ohh… That Jamie Schwartz.

“‘Arry Styles.” He grinned down at her admiring the blush that shaded the bridge of her nose. “Yeh look very pretty today, love.”

The blush deepened. “Uh.. thanks.”

They both sat and despite his best efforts, Harry found himself watching her every move instead of listening, eyes tracing her profile and dancing over any skin she been generous enough to leave bare.

His phone vibrated in his pocket and he dug it out.

Like something you see, bro?

He glared at Jeff.

Maybe focus and stop ogling my guitarist!

He discretely flicked him off and focused on what Mitch was saying.

Shit.

**

This really wasn’t fair…

And what’s worse is he had no one to blame but himself.

Let’s go to the beach, I said… it’ll be fun, I thought.

She lifted her vest top over her head and he wanted to drown himself in the sea.

She was covered in brilliant color from the T-rex tattooed on her foot to her pretty, peach bathing suit to the sleeve that covered her left arm.

She leant over to peel her cutoff shorts down gorgeous, dimpled thighs and he tugged at his swim trunks, hoping the stiffy he was close to sporting wasn’t as obvious as it felt. He cast a look around, checking for pesky photogs who would love a picture of playboy Harry Styles and his problem.

When he turned back, she was stepping out of her shorts. She tried to shake some hair of her face and her sunglasses slipped off her nose and into the sand.

“Well… fuck.” She huffed and Mitch said something to her left, causing her to turn away from Harry.

She’s got a cute bu- Fuck!

She giggled and leant over at the waist to reclaim her sunglasses and Harry wanted to die.

Close to sporting, my fuckin’ arse… Harry groaned and pressed the heels of his hands into his eyes, thinking of anything and everything he could conceive to try and distract him.

When he opened them again, she had straightened and was starting to spread out her beach blanket. He watched, still thirsty as fuck if he was honest, and caught himself moving forward toward her as she lay back on her blanket.

“Help wit’ m’sunscreen, love?”

**

Harry was all but resigned to his fate at this point.

She was beautiful and had been built by some higher power to completely torment him.

It was fact at this point.

She reached behind her to undo her bra and the way she was turned half away from him, afforded him a glimpse of those lovely tits. He sighed and she turned toward him fully, blushing slightly when she caught him looking.

“Dirty boy.”

There it is.

He was glad he had already changed into a pair of soft sleep shorts. It did nothing to hide the evidence of his erection of course, but at least he didn’t have to contend with the compounding effect of knowing her eyes were bare on him.

She slipped his shirt over her head, pretty blue eyes hot on him and tugged it down over her denim shorts. Eyes still on him, damn her, she slowly unbuttoned and unzipped and then let the shorts fall to pool at her ankles.

“Ya okay, Pretty Boy?”

He swallowed thickly and nodded. “Fancy a cuddle, Monster?”

She smirked and moved to her side of the bed. He followed her down and wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her back into his chest. When she chuckled and snuggled back against him, her ass naturally grinding ever so slightly against his hips (and rather obvious erection), he groaned and hid his face in her neck.

“Yer mean.”

She did it again. “I’m not mean. You chose this, you laid out the rules and decided to torture yourself by insisting on sharing a bed nearly every night. This is you, baby-boo.”

“I’m trying to leave your options open.” He huffed and shifted even closer to her. “And I like cuddling you. Sleep better.”

“I’m not complaining about the cuddling, I like cuddling with you too. You smell nice. And I appreciate that you’re trying to be sensitive about this. I just don’t get why you torture yourself.”

He shrugged, chin still on her shoulder. “I dunno… I want this with you, but I know what any connection with me can do to a girl. I’ve seen women harassed by my fans for simply being a friend of a friend who was invited to a dinner party. I don’t want to do that to you.”

“I get that.” She turned her head and kissed his cheek. “I do. And it says so much for your character and the way your mother raised you that you think about it like that. It does.” She smiled against his cheek. “But I also think you sell yourself short. You are worth it, I promise, and any chick doesn’t think so, isn’t worth you worrying yourself sick over, ya know?”

His heart stopped beating, he could swear. “You think I’m worth being chased down and cyber bullied?”

She turned in his arms and locked eyes with him. “I do, yeah.” She nodded and grasped his face. “I do. Even if we’re just friends. Even if we end up not keeping up with each other in the future and we only see each other at industry parties and we never talk. You are a fantastic human being and you are worth it. That’s why your friends who have been harassed stick around. Not because of money or their fifteen minutes, but because you are wonderful. You gotta believe it though, baby. Doesn’t matter how many times I tell you that if you don’t believe it.”

He nodded and leaned forward to kiss her. “I don’t want you to regret what happens here… between us. I don’t want you to get back to LA, have a bad run-in with the paparazzi and hate me because we fucked when you were vulnerable and I was technically your boss in a weird way and you felt pressured o-”

“I know. I understand. That’s fine. I can wait but you should know that I don’t feel pressured and I don’t feel like there’s a power imbalance or some weird mojo or something. I feel like we’re friends-”

“We are friends… more’n friends, really. I adore you.”

She smiled and Harry felt like the sun was coming out at midnight. She pressed a soft kiss to his nose and cuddled him closer. “I adore you too. I don’t want you angsting over where we stand or feeling like you’re taking advantage of me, ‘cause you’re not, okay? You’re not.”

He nodded and quieted, admiring her bone structure and the tan she had developed in the past month. The sun had added color to her skin but stripped it from her hair, lightening her eyebrows in a way that made her look ethereal and even more angelic than she had previously.

“Yeh’re so beautiful, darling.”

She shied away a bit, but her grasped her chin between his thumb and forefinger. “Yeh are, yeah?”

She smiled and nodded. “Thank you.”

**

He stepped out of the SUV and straightened his silk button-up before handing Jamie out of the car, making sure she was steady in her sky-high sequined Louboutins before dropping her hand and wrapping an arm around her waist, hand landing squarely on her ass.

Normally he’d be keen to keep his hands in appropriate places but he frankly didn’t care tonight. She had been driving him crazy all day, wearing little more than his shirt and a pair of knickers for most of the day as she worked on new music for her band.

Or when she’d been getting ready for their night out, sitting at her vanity in a strapless bra (which did little to contain the loveliness of his girlfriend’s cleavage) and a frankly none-existent scrap of lace (“no panty lines, baby”) as she applied what little make-up she normally wore.

Or when she had turned her back to him, requesting help with the zip or allowed him to help buckle aforementioned sky-high Louboutins that arched her foot in the most delectable way-

“You seem tense, Baby.”

He grunted and swatted lightly at her bum before smoothing his thumb over the buttery, navy suede of her Alice + Olivia dress. “Behave yourself or we won’t make it long at this party.”

She grinned, deep crimson lips wicked. “Yes, Daddy.”

He paused and sighed, before pretending to turn them back towards that car.

“Haz!” She laughed.

“I’m serious, love. Behave.” He started back toward the door to the Viper Room.

She pouted up at him and pressed a kiss to his jaw. “You’re no fun.”

He stopped again and leaned down to speak directly in her ear, not caring in the slightest that this would be plastered all over every tabloid tomorrow- Let them see what she does to me, they’d never question this relationship again. “I have been patient all day, even though yeh know damn well that yeh were doin’ more teasin’ than workin’ today. Test me, love, and I’ll have yeh bent over in a bathroom stall before we can say hello t’anyone.”

Her breath caught in her throat and she swallowed. “Sounds like more fun than this party if ya ask me.”

“Don’t tempt me.”

“But it’s so much fun.” She batted her eyelashes up at him. “Besides… you’re already being bad, why not have even more fun?” She ran her thumb over a wing of the butterfly on his stomach. “They’ve already got an eyeful, yeah? Already broke the internet most likely… It can’t hurt.”

He grinned, leaning forward to press his forehead to hers. “Yer beautiful an’ sexy an’ so very, very mine an’ I love yeh.”

“Right back atcha, stud.”

**

“I don’t know what to wear…” She shifted through her clothes, lip caught between her teeth. Pulling a dress off the rail, she turned toward him. “Is this elopement appropriate?”

He shook his head and came to stand behind her, joining in the search. “Too fancy, they’ll know something is up.”

She sighed and nodded. “Right.”

He grabbed a white chiffon tank dress from the rail and smiled. “This’ll do nicely.”

“Baby, I know we live in LA, but it’s March and it’s still pretty chilly.”

“Right.” He tugged at his lip. “You can wear leggings?”

“Not with chiffon.” She cast an aimless look around the closet.

He shrugged. “It’s not that chilly, wear hose and then you can put something on over it.”

“That’ll work.” She grabbed the hanger from him and marched back into the bedroom. Quickly she took off his ‘Styles’ shirt and laid it on the bed before digging a strapless bra and nude hose out of her underwear drawer.

When she was dressed, she considered herself in the mirror and pulled him over to her side. Satisfied that they ‘went’, she nodded and moved to put on makeup. “What am I wearing over this… jean jacket?”

He shook his head and grabbed his shirt from where she had abandoned it on the bed. “Wear this.”

She turned to him and sucked in a breath. “Ya think?”

He grinned. “It’s gonna be as true for you as it is for me soon, future wife.”

She blinked away tears and smiled. “Shit! We’re getting married.”

“Yeah we are.” He leaned over to kiss her and dropped the shirt in her lap. “Hurry up, Monster. Through waitin’ for ye t’wear me name. Let’s go.”

She took a deep breath and smiled brilliantly and Harry was floored by just how beautiful his future wife was.

As he hoped he would be when she was his wife and the mother of his children.

As he hoped he always would be.

“’ello, yuuchube…” Mickie grinned at the camera, dimples on full display. “That’s how my dad says it… anyways, I have a treat for you today!” The camera panned as he turned it, losing focus for a short moment and then focused in on Harry sitting on the couch, the sound of piano scales being played in the background.

“Mum is teaching Georgie how to play the piano and Dad has been staring at her- probably without blinking! -for like… an hour.”

Video-Harry had his chin propped up on his fist, a notebook of presumably lyrics left open and forgotten in his lap. The smile on his face was soft as he stared just off camera.

“Hey, Baby?”

“Yes, my love?”

“Will you come teach this scale? My hands are too small.”

He grinned and stood, strolling rather leisurely to the piano that came into focus as Mickie followed at a distance. “Of course, anything for my gorgeous wife and my stupendous son.”

Video-Jamie squinted up at Video-Harry as he reached the bench. “Are you buttering me up for a particular reason or just cause?”

“Just ‘cause I love yeh.” He pressed a kiss to her cheek and motioned for her to stand. He slipped onto the bench and patted his thigh, smiling up at Jamie. She settled in his lap with an indulgent smile, brushing hair off his forehead as Harry cuddled Georgie against his side with his other arm. “Okay, Georgie, this is how it goes.”

The camera turned back to Mickie who smiled. “Like… I know that I’m supposed to be grossed out or somethin’... but like that’s how they always are and I’m glad that my dad loves my mum like that.”

“Mickie… baby, what’re you doing?”

“Oops…” He grinned sheepishly and turned the camera back at his parents and younger brother, who had all turned away from the piano. “I’m filmin’, Mum!”

Jaime chuckled, confused. “Filmin’ what?”

The camera jostled, almost like a shrug, as he walked to his parents. “You and Dad…”

“Why?”

Video-Jamie held out a hand for his and Mickie’s hand appeared in frame. “Just… dunno… like the way you and Dad are. Wanted people to see it.”

Harry smiled like he knew where this was going. “How do yeh mean, son?”

“Ya know… like in love and crap. It’s nice.” There was a long pause. “Not everyone’s parents are like that, but I like that you are.”

Jamie turned away from the camera for second to wipe at her eyes.

“Mumma… didn’t mean to make ya cry.” The camera dropped a bit.

“It’s okay, baby. That’s very sweet.”

Georgie nodded. “I like it too.”

Harry grinned and cuddled him closer. “Yeah?”

“‘Cause Mumma’s the prettiest and why wouldn’t you love her, right, Daddy?”

“Exactly, m’boy. Yer mum is the prettiest woman I’ve ever met… and the kindest and the smartest-”

“And the best mum!”

Harry turned back to Mickie and gathered him into a family hug. “That’s right.”

Jamie wiped at her eyes again. “Y’all…”

A Relationship

ok replying to the last ask from the shortie convo: i have decided that the issue isn’t my unintimidating appearance nor any lack of badassery in my chart, i simply need to start snapping on bitches. no more making excuses just committing a straight up murder, verbally, or maybe i’ll just start swinging. who knows. i Could be giving off that energy you describing but i’m clearly not so it’s probably just that i’ve been holding myself back. fuck that, it’s been too chummy over here i’m gonna start summoning demons n shit. haunting people via the astral plane. going to their house and moving all their furniture an inch to the left so they bump into everything. swapping their lube and laundry detergent. stealing peoples bank account numbers. selling their organs online. fucking their mans. nt’s who wanna try me aboutta catch these HANDS! YALL WANTED TO SEE A SCORPIO YALL GON GET STUNG BITCHES

i’m definitely taking this ego boost and running w it tho. ur right tho us scorpios go hard. in theory i’m like “yeah i’m a p selfish person i always put myself over everyone else even those i care about” when in reality if someone even Breathes incorrectly at any of my like 4.5 people i’ve decided are My People they aboutta feel the wrath of a GOD. i just been cast away too many times to put in that energy for most people tbh it’s hard bc i’m an extrovert snd i Want lots of friends but i’m picky w em. if i find them boring they’re getting left on read. if their sense of humour doesn’t bounce off mine like a motherfucking bouncy castle that you can safely do a triple backflip on, i’m not having it. if they can’t take my roasts with their head held high they ain’t lasting long. this criteria narrows it down to just abt everyone who don’t want me, apparently, and some randos on the internet. LMFAO. then again i’ve had people i just thought were ok and not fun enough to stick around for, be the ones reaching out to me n put the effort in to be my friend and i just 🥺🥴🤩🥺🥺 i’m gonna roast them shitless but if anyone else says so much as a single hair on their head being off i am annihilating their entire bloodline down to the 9th generation. you best not go around telling ppl how soft we are on the inside tho hoe i do Not strap a switchblade to my thigh for people to find out about my romanticism or how i daydream abt just hanging out w my best friends n doing The most domestic and normal things just bc i want to spend more time w them, no, shhh. keep it on the down low. also aquarians tend to scare me in terms of genuine friendships bc y’all so flaky like aquas would tell me “i love u so much ur like my favourite person ever” then ghost my entire existence until i ask them for a tbh on their insta story and turns out they thought i was too much and their friends all hate me, like, i love yalls sense of humour but OUCH. u may projectile vomit at ur taurus moon but that’s like Exactly what u need to balance that shit out cause taurians to be ride or die. like yeah they’re arguably “lazy” by generalisation but that’s just bc their motivation is Extremely tunnel visioned towards whatever makes them happy and if that’s you you’re getting Showered in love n affection and attention and yall stubborn as a brick wall but loyal to a fault. us scorpios need thst shit bro we need that Stability taurians provide, esp since they’re so sturdy they tend to be able to handle our intensity well without being scared off. no taurus slander in this household will be tolerated unless it’s from me 😤😤😤 -felix bi anon

I'm tellliiiing you, you need to start smackin bitches. Cause I've met baby scorps that don't realize they literally are The Babe With The Power, and then full scorps who know that smackin tf out of someone is ONLY A PROBLEM to bitches who know they do shit they deserve to get slapped for 😂

I'm always honestly confused when people say Aquarians are cold or detached or unemotional ☹️because I genuinely don't get it 😭 like, we are some of the most emotional people on fuckin planet earth, to our own detriment—I think we just have an ego problem and we also tend to be extremely contrarian, so whenever someone thinks they know us or what we're about, we pull the rip cord because no one could EVAAAAA, and it's insulting that they think they could 😂 But I've always known Aquarians to be some of the most sensitive bitches, we just don't externalize it because our world is internal, we don't share w the world, we create our own. We are flakier than a fresh baked fuckin Popeyes biscuit tho, that is the gods honest truth. We will decide on the drive to ur place that we're no longer invested and just up and turn around and go back to bed without a word. I think what the outside world intercepts as being cold or aloof in Aquarians is actually just the fact that we really struggle with Casualness and take everything WAY too seriously and are extremely idealistic, and we're so used to being made fun of for being too serious or too passionate that we just like. Stop showing up mentally to a lot of spaces. Especially if what we're excited about is something other people find weird, we jsut go "okay I won't share joy with you anymore cause you're a bitch." I've also never known another Aquarian who doesn't feel an extremely strong sense of intuition, coupled with a really black and white thinking, that makes us quickly gauge how compatible someone's values etc are with ours and if we have an inkling it's not gonna work, we just dip. I'm totally guilty of thinking someone is my kindred spirit and then they say one thing that makes me feel differently and I just cut ties, cause I know that they won't change and I can't abide by our differences, so it feels like an insurmountable problem and we just shut it down and move on. We think too much about shit lmfao. My problem with Taurians has always been that, in my experience, they have this deep emotional capacity because they think of their life through the lense of classic film, so being the hopelessly devoted friend or the lovestruck ingenue is appealing to them for that reason, so they can picture their actions from a 3rd person pov and feel that the audience will react positively to their character. To people/signs that are internally motivated rather than externally, that can read as not being genuine, and that's been my large experience with taurus. I don't hate Taurians, I have a lot of them in my life, but the Taurus in my chart only exacerbates the natural dramatic nature i have and makes me unbearable a lot of the time lmfao. I'm idealistic enough as it is, my moon in taurus just makes me INSANELY emotional about romance and friendships to a degree that keeps me from having them because I NEED it to be storybook, it has to be perfect or I can't handle it. I'd sum up the taurus/Aquarius dynamic as us feeling uneasy about them because they're very driven, but we feel it's for the wrong reasons, if that makes sense.

Wrote a small scene from Axel’s POV about being grilled by a nosy reporter on the topic of his sexy loyal elvish bodyguard. Might go on to do a full scene later (if I feel like it). I’ve unofficially titled this ‘how I write gay characters, apparently’.

Context was a prompt was to write about a character describing their boyfriend. Of course, Axel and Quanti’s relationship is strictly platonic! No homo, bro.

“Can you recall when you first met Qanti?

“Gekhan Qanti,” I corrected. She raised a brow inquisitively at me. “You're not a member of the tribe, you're obliged to use the proper honorific when referring to the chief of a Quaan Warband. Gekhan.” I leaned back in the obnoxiously comfy chair I'd been wrangled into and took a long sip from my tea. Gross. Still, it afforded me a few moments to enjoy her expression of frustration without looking too smug. I set the tea cup down and smiled politely as I could. “If you think I, as a dignitary, am going to sit here and allow you to insult my viceprime you are sorely mistaken, miss.”

“So,” she artfully pushed past my objections, “you would say he is your right hand?”

“My right hand, my left hand, sometimes my right leg, depending on how fucked up I get.”

Her expression was one of many questions, but she appeared to swallow them with a grimace and look to the stack of parchment she'd been handed prior. “Right... so how would you describe Qa-” she inhaled sharply and corrected herself ”... Gekhan Qanti when you first met him?”

I thought for a moment, then smiled and fluttered my eyelashes at the inquisitor. “He was like a gigantic, bronze angel... wrestling with raptors in the desert.”

I kicked my feet up on the table between us, knocking the god awful tea all over the place. “He's an eight foot giant with biceps the size of my fuckin' head. He can chuck a drake calf for half a sight, the fuck am I gonna say about him you couldn't tell just by looking at him?”

“Sir,” her voice was absolutely quivering with restraint. I can't deny, I get off on pushing the buttons on these types of people. “What exactly is the nature of your relationship with the elf known as Qanti? The people have a right to know abo-”

“What exactly are you implying, miss... what was your name again?” I sat up straight now, looking down at her with all the dire seriousness she'd been asking for. Now she shrunk when I looked her in the eye. “Doesn't matter. You're a nobody, sent by some lord to try to get dirt on the 'Tarnished Prince'. And he's probably a no name too in the grand scheme, trying to use money to buy favor with someone on the council. Some other political no-name who'd spread his ass cheeks wide open for my father without a single thought. It's all just a big fuckpile of dudes trying to jerk each other off so the guy on top notices them, and you're just the bottom bitch.”

I stood up and adjusted my cloak. “They want to slam me in the papers, publish some hydra spit 'love affair' story about the prince to get people off my side. Well, I've got news for you and the people you take it in the ass from. We're soldiers. We fight together. We bleed together. And in a couple days, odds are good we'll die together. And we're gonna do it dragging that fucking monster your boss is trying to blow off his gilded throne. So if you wanna run a hit piece on me, you can print that.”

I moved for the doorway before she could respond. As I let myself out I called back “Also your tea is fucking shit.” Bam, nailed it.

I just had a really weird dream & im writing it here cuz twitter has a character limit

Warning for long text wall, I'm on mobile and can't put it under a cut sorry So things were normal at first, I think? Time kinda jumped around but basically it was a normal day turned apocalypse. Looking back on it it was like a weird parody of devil survivor 2. Anyways. So there were these..3...4 kids? Idk there looked like 4 in this one scene where they played dead and like, rolled into a fancy coffin (this replayed itself like twice? Idk) but in later scenes there was an emphasis on two (an older sister that I'd say was probably 17ish and a younger brother who was maybe 14? Idk low teens at the oldest) and there was some other people, like a lot of people, there were two groups I think aside from the kids? Anywho it went super RPG with random monsters around that were like, OHKO pretty much. There were some SUPER strong ones that if you saw you GTFOd your way out and prayed they didn't follow you. One was a giant squid. It was in a river next to like, the one small fish. One guy went back there a few times to catch the fish and a frog, which always managed to ambush him. The hunting sections were extremely video game like, there was a tutorial and targeting and stuff. It was weird. Also, people sucked at hunting. Like, really sucked. The one character I went POV for was myself, I guess? I don't remember who I was with but I was with three other people, when I was around. Anyways I was trying to keep my goldfish alive in an inflatable ball that kept getting air holes in it and deflating, taping the new holes was annoying. And then a tiger like, broke through the back door (said tiger was one of those oh FUCK GTFO enemies and I reached around it to grab this goldfish (I don't even own a goldfish IRL, priorities) and we somehow got it out? No one died, somehow. And then a lion squeezed in (not of the GTFO variety) and sat on the couch and everyone was freaking out but me? I was cool with this random ass lion just chilling, it was probably gonna kill me in my sleep but yknow. Whatevs man. I like, had an existential crisis in my dream for a brief second. What even. Anyways with the other group of adults, this one dude got separated from his girlfriend in the initial apocalypse happening stuff (which I'll get to in a bit, it's the most fuzzy rn) and I can't remember what he did but he somehow helped out whoever was sending in the monsters? And asked about getting let out of the lockdown - moreso getting his girlfriend out, or being able to get to her - and they laughed at him and said NO ONE gets out of the lockdown. And then my brain jumped back to me with my group and I somehow knew this dude and that convo and some lady asked about "the lists" of ppl who could leave and I said, like "he got it. Everyone's on it." "???" "Everyone's gonna die" (this is where the existential crisis happened) and I don't remember much about those two groups aside from that ANYWHO with the kids. There's supposed to be an adult with them from the weird "hide in a coffin" scene but I don't remember her outside of that so. Probs dead. Idk. Anyways in that scene there was the older sis, younger bro, a set of twins, and a baby. Idk where the twins and baby went. I thought "'no wait, there's a baby, the baby's gotta be here too" a few times, so like..I knew it was a dream but not really? Oh, and they were apparently psychic? The powers never really showed up aside from a mention of them not being able to gain superpowers one way cuz they were among the last of their kind (the adults were referred to as "Hiders". Lowkey feels like that's supposed to be a completely different show.) Anyways the brother and sister got separated, and the younger bro was running around with a group of friends that was pretty big actually? Idk my dreams don't give visuals on people a lot. Anyways a bunch happened to them but I mainly remember running into a random building and there was a pool? With a monster that looked kinda like a lapras? And it shot fire and we all almost died but a random older dude turned it into wood for a sec and that cancelled the magic? We kept running and the thing unfroze and I was positive we were gonna die but it didn't attack? And the dude said they're peaceful in the day, only attack at night. Then there was a series of tunnels, and this boy kept leaving hints for his sister (who's name is Jess, that feels right) and then they bunkered down and waited? Not sure but then one of Jess' friends and another dude and the dude from before I think? Were there and talking like they had been the entire time. It gets fuzzy but I think the friend killed the two dudes for some reason? Something about backstabbing before you get backstabbed. And then she died from something? Not sure, but there was magic bs going on. Jumping to Jess, she was doing some running around and other stuff but I mainly remember one scene where she goes to sleep and wakes up in a coffin surrounded by...sand? Idk it looked like sand. And there were other ppl but they were either passed out or dead so they don't matter. But there WAS this demon like guy Jess seemed to know? It sounded like they had talked before - she def knew who he was. Anyways he kept telling her to go back to sleep and she'd be fine, but something about what he said gave her the idea she could do something to help everyone and when she asked he (hesitantly) explained that, yes, she was in a place that controlled the big GTFO monsters, and she could prevent more from being unleashed, but she would die. They talked for a bit about options (Jess asking, he answering) while Jess fiddled with bottles strewn about in the sand she woke up in (she was mainly asking about what the bottles did, I think, and then she asked about getting up.) Naturally Jess gets up and searches and finds a series of levers (the first is R, though everyone keeps saying the monsters are named after Greek letters? Idk) and she pulls and bends the lever, preventing it from being used again, and my brain kinda skimmed over her shutting down the next few. And then Jess has an army of kids and teens running with her, disrupting the bad dude's plans, and she's shredding this orb thing to pieces and giving those pieces to the kids to further shred. Idk what this thing was but if they got all the pieces again they could put it back together and that'd be BAD. Also Jess managed to break everything except this one last event, which was a bomb raid? Which jumped over to the bros side, and why they ran into that building I think. Anyways, Jess keeps running, and I think she got captured? But my brain jumped to her in the tunnels her bro had left messages in, and she gets to their bunkered down position but he's not there (it's a weird mix of parallel dimensions and time travel, it made sense in dream) but she knows he's SUPPOSED to be there, they just can't see each other and so she leaves her own message. The first is a pic of her in a weird costume with some dude (this happened earlier in the dream, I guess, but I don't remember it?) but she's afraid he won't know what that means so she leaves another saying "it's me, ___, it's Jess" (don't remember the bros name) and these just kinda appear near the bro and he reads them and starts crying (I feel like *I* was crying But I was asleep, so) and he realizes she's gone. Not sure how those conveyed that but they did. The dream ended thereish, but over the course of writing all that I remembered some other stuff: So at first it looked like a city, but a main beginning scene I remember is a group of older folks (like, 60s at the youngest) running from this weird vehicle and if it ran you over you like, turned to mush and melted a hole in the ground. The back tires passed over your mush self and you and the hole were gone. Some people died from this, some people came back like a respawn. Those older ppl plus some others made up the two non-Jess and bro groups later. They kept referencing a married couple who died (last name started with a C I think?) who for some reason had been a major threat to whoever was running this? And another couple, who seemed to be the leaders, were a similar but weaker threat. I'm not sure how, but probably magic. At one point I ran into a building and got separated from my friends in the crowd, ran into the women's bathroom (for some reason the men and women bathrooms ended up connecting in the back) and I sat down against a wall with my phone and 3ds (accurate, sadly no goldfish :c ) and then my grandpa was there holding out a hand to me with a small smile. Nothing really came of that so...yeah. Anyways yeah, that's most of what I remember. There's some other details (I think hunting dude hunted with his brother? And they were part of my group? *shrugs*) but i can't remember them clearly so screw it. TL:DR don't let Snowy sleep, she gets REALLY FUCKIN WEIRD DREAMS
