First, feel free to give us the deliciousness of Lily’s conversation with her roommates about the dorm parties.

Second, I also hc that Lily wasn’t all that popular; she’s not only freely hanging out with a guy who calls Muggleborns slurs and calling this guy her best friend, she is actively making excuses for him. I absolutely see her roommates as side eyeing the fuck out of her for this and kind of holding her at a distance. They find her nice enough to hang out with and it’s not horrible in the dorms, and they’re encouraging her to end her friendship with Snape (in large part because they are genuinely worried she’s going to be murdered because of it, such as by Voldemort ordering Snape to kill her as initiation, Snape killing her to prove to his wannabe Death Eater friends that he’s not defending Muggleborns and he’s going to join with them, someone like Avery killing her because she’s a mudblood he has easy access to because of her friendship with one of his roommates, etc. Like, a large chunk of people near Lily thought she’d die because of this friendship and they turned out to be right albeit in a way they never expected), but they’re not super close to her because she is implicitly defending her best friend’s prejudice and thereby saying she doesn’t care what’s happening to everyone else because of it. Mary in particular is hardcore judging her

anon i am putting it on my absurdly long list of ideas-to-write (which has expanded suddenly?? out of nowhere?? i was in a writing/fandom slump literally three weeks ago) as we speak. as the asks come in. i will write it into the tumblr post box if nothing else.

but. but. yes! u get it! i think lily made a decision that made sense to her, obviously not knowing how the WW works and sticking to her safe space in a world that's so different and so alien to her, right? she's also the kind who'll double down instead of admitting she might be wrong and the slightly codependent/possessive friendship snily has doesnt help. and in the beginning, her roommates did try--for a long time. they tried to explain the blood dynamics, talk about snape as a person, how she's setting herself up for failure etc but lily's firmly entrenched in her 'not like other muggleborns' complex atp so she takes all their words like attacks (similar to james/sirius on the train). it just doesnt help. and that pushes her deeper towards snape as well. its like a terrible cycle.

many others lose patience with her after a while and just maintain a distance. a few are downright mean but lily gives back as good as she gets. sirius has no patience and james is too kind (unless it comes to snape himself). all of it just adds to the confusion the poor girl must be feeling.

i also talked ab it a while but i do think that, as the years go by, and snape's ~friends transform into junior DEs (and him too), all of lily's disagreements w him happen in private while her support of him is public. that can also lead to a skewed picture, especially for other halfbloods/muggleborns. bc what is this girl doing????

#lily evans #idk i find it fascinating #also fills me with spiteful satisfaction to have an iteration of lily that's not loved by everyone--the opposite actually #bc for so long ive read Perfect Lily and idiotic bully james #and it just. put me on edge #so this is rly just an annoyed response lol #but then i started thinking ab it #and drawing irl parallels #and i feel like u can make it make sense #pen’s asks

helllooo could i rq hu tao & tartaglia w creator reader who's been having rly rly vivid night terrors from their prev life ?? if that makes sense , if not im so sorry lol😭😭

Genshin x Creator nightmares

A/N: I actually love this idea very very much so I really hope that I did it justice! Thank you so much for requesting! But honestly you can request whenever! I adore all ideas hehe I looooove creator reader content!! But can you tell I'm a Childe simp?👀

Summary: You're having bad nightmares about your Previous life, you have your acolytes to pull you out of them though.

Characters: Hu Tao & Tartaglia. (Separate.)

Vivid Loss.

No. Not again. That alarm... You're usually just woken by one of your acolytes, so why is that dreaded sound of the alarm blaring through your sleep induced haze?

Opening your eyes, your old room came into view with genshin playing on a screen across from you. Dread rapidly filled you, hands clutching onto the soft sheets laid against you. It's happening again, you're back to that absolute hell. Standing up, you moved over to the screen that held genshin within - trying to log in. Why wouldn't it let you in? It was a dream, wasn't it? Where you were free.

Free from education and work, free from your past horrors and current ones. Where was Venti when you needed him? Couldn't he make this horrible place as free as Mondstat? Shutting your eyes tightly, everything swirled in your mind. All of the horrible responsibilities and situations you were in, all of the horrible feelings returned tenfold. This was it, wasn't it? You were 'home'. That horrible ringing began once again - pitchy and annoying. The signal of always waking up forcefully day after day to endure utter hell. You couldn't do this anymore. You couldn't do it -

"Take me back." Your voice was but a whisper clawing against your throat daring to turn itself into a scream.

"Take me BACK!"

"... -ace." Sounds… so familiar.

Hu Tao.

"Your Grace!" Feels too real. So real. A hand was soon upon your shoulder, shaking you ever so gently. The words continued to spill from their mouth, concern etched upon their face. Yes… they used to call you that when you were there. When you were within your true home. Wait, this is your home. Is that… them?

"Hu Tao?" She instantly sighed in relief, helping you sit up against the mountain of pillows you had obtained within your adobe.

"Finally! I kept trying to wake you, Your Grace." She smiled widely at you, oh how you missed that smile of hers. That twinkle in her eyes always warmed your soul, you knew she adored you. "You were having another nightmare! It's not good to have so many, you know." Sighing and shaking your head a little, your eyes gazed around the room trying to once again gain stability. During the silence she shuffled herself to sit beside you, a curious gaze in her eyes. "Sometimes it helps to talk about it - would you wanna?" It wouldn't hurt to talk about it, would it? Even if it's just a little, maybe it'll help the dreams subside and all connections of your past will leave you to your new life in Teyvat.

Gently you took her hand within your own and her lighter attitude soon turned into a more serious one. She adores you after all and promises to always listen.

"My dreams have been plagued by the time I spent in the life before this one; just the thought alone is enough to make me feel sick. Thinking I'm there again without you fills me with more dread than I can even begin to express. Please don't leave me…" She stayed silent for a moment, eyes wide before she regained her usual composure. Taking a light breath in, she began to speak.

Tartaglia.

"Huh, so your remembrance of your past life really won't leave you be will it? I think it's about time we give it its own funeral - dont you? To finally put it to rest and to allow you to move to your life truly and fully here! A good idea, right?" Hu Tao grinned at you before continuing. "I'm here! If you need some assistance, I'm here to give it my all to the very end, your grace! Shall we do this?" With your approval, she's soon standing and grinning. "Well then, are you ready to say goodbye to it?"

"Ajax!" His name in the form of a scream ripped from your throat as you sat up breathing heaving and trembling beneath the covers. The door soon finally burst open and a worried Tartaglia stood there with his weapon gripped within his fist along with a Serious yet angry look etched upon his face. How dare something upset you? His love - his divine creator. Seeing no immediate threat, he rushed over to your side with a softer gaze within his eyes.

"My love - another nightmare?" Nodding softly, his fingertips found themselves brushing soft patterns against your hand to try and coax you to lessen your grip on the blankets. "That's okay, I'm here now." His voice was so soothing yet so grounding. However tears soon began to pool within your eyes and once your gaze met his own? Even though he too could practically hear his heart shatter, it took everything in him to not bring you into his arms right there and then. "May I hold you, my grace?" All it took was a gentle yes to be within his protective and warm embrace. "Nobody can take you away from me, my love. Nothing will ever take you away from this world or my arms." Sniffling, you buried your face against his neck.

"But what if it does? And... and then what if I wake up and this is just a dream?" You felt his grip tighten a little around you all whilst his heart hammered against his chest at the thought. These thoughts... How dare they upset you? He will do anything to help you and soothe your mind.

"Then I will tear Teyvat apart to get to you. I will destroy every realm and bring them to their knees if it means I could hold you safely once again." Exhale. "Don't you see, my love? There isn't anything that I won't do for you." A smile was soon upon your lips at his words and loyalty. "Let's try and sleep again my divine, you'll be right in my arms when you awake."

this is for all the newbies on tumblr following me who have come here from tiktok or twitter. just some things i learned from being on this hellsite for so long lol

if ur writing something that's more than about 1k words or so please PLEASE for the love of god use the 'keep reading' option. on mobile all u have to do is type :readmore: in a separate line and itll make it. dont trust the expand shit bc im p sure that doesnt work on mobile or on people's blogs.

im sure u heard this a lot from other people but REBLOG SHIT!! DONT JUST LIKE THINGS!! bc it'll circulate posts more and yeah (liking isnt a problem imo but reblogs are just better. nd i dont think spam liking rly does anything ngl)

also the more u interact with someone the more likely they are to interact with u!! the fellas on tumblr are just some Guys lmao. u might make a friend!!

don't have a blank blog. just dont. add a profile picture and decorate it a little pls or u will be thought of as a bot and blocked

the op of a post you rb can see the tags you put on it!! doesnt matter if u rb it from someone else!

DONT CLOG TAGS!! tag ur stuff appropriately (including TWs), i dont wanna see your personal shit in the bnha tag

do NOT embed links in asks. people have been doxxed before. make sure you paste the link in

ik tumblr got rid of the character limit in asks but personally i think splitting up your ask into multiple (if its very very long) makes the post shorter and better to scroll thru. plus the op can ss the multiple asks and put it in their response

if u reblog something and tag it, thats for organization on ur own blog. it wont show up in tags so it wont be spam.

b careful that you're not copying tags the op put on the post that's clearly their own voice/words. idk its just annoying bad vibes LMAO

adding this bc a lot of people have deactivated bc of it but DONT SEND HATE ASKS! i feel like this should be obvious but apparently not. if u dont agree/like someone then just block them, ez. no need to make it a big deal, these are people on here, not robots.

#go to sleep shay it's late o'clock #also b careful w what info u reveal on here etc etc #esp if ur a minor #i think i covered everything but yeh #hopefully this helps someone LMAOOO

Answering asks #1

I thought it'd be easier to answer asks in a batch! Also I am so sorry it took me so long to get to them! I've been all over the place aaa I'm sorry! Anyhow, I hope you enjoy my responses ;w;!!!

I'm embarrassed of that video honestly T_T I feel like I was being too mean in it? That's basically it! And in general I lowkey wanna remake it! So stay tuned for that :>

Of course! I would say credit isn't rly necessary for me! As long as you don't claim my art as yours, I'm chill with it! :D

Thank you so so much!!! AAA I'm always so happy when ppl tell me they enjoyed my Grelle animation ;w;!!! It's one of my fave recent creations hihi!

To answer your question- what I love most about Grelle is the concept behind her character. Like it has sm potential to be so interesting. I love fucked up women, I love fucked up LGBT characters, and she's both!! Though I would say the way her character is almost always reduced to a joke and a comic relief is annoying to me. Like I love that she's silly and goofy and flirty don't get me wrong, it's moreso the fact it feels like the show is laughing at her rather than with her :(!!

I don't rly have headcanons I dislike... well outside the man!Grelle headcanon. Like I'm sorry that removes everything i find interesting about her character! Her relationship with gender, femininity, theatrics and motherhood is some of my fave stuff about her, so making her a dude kinda makes me yawn.

Anyhow to stop myself from going off about Grelle I just wanna say thank you sm again for this sweet message!! ;W;

I own the DVD! The subtitles are only compatable with the DVD, so if you wanna watch the Stageplay you gotta get your own copy ;;!

I got annoyed with not having all my art in one place XD that's why I deleted the sketchblog! You can find some reposted sketches on here!

This is the sweetest anon omg thank you!! But I gotta ask, when you say I have your dream artstyle I wonder which one you mean? XD I feel like I change my artstyle slightly every week LOL. (I love experimenting hihi)

Thank you for the kind words tho ;w; it really means a lot!!!

Aww I'm so happy you enjoyed my modern AU designs for them!! Thank you so much :'D I'll be on the lookout for your fic btw! 👀

And I doodled a little modern AU Cielois for you, to apologize for how long it took me to answer this ;W;! Hope you enjoy the sillies!

@porfiriea

People in my puter saying nice things makes me happy :')

Srsly tho, thank you for this sweet ask, I'm always nervous when opening my inbox so I'm really happy I got such a kind message upon reopening!

@eemoo1o That is so lovely to hear like?? The fact my animation (here it is if you haven't seen it!) inspired your drive to write more?? Omg... Thank you thank you thank you for this wondeful message!!! Even if it's been a month or so since I posted it, I love getting people's thoughts on my animations :'D!!! No matter how recent or old they are! I always appreciate it!!!

Thank you for liking my Grelle <3333 I love drawing her the most. I love drawing unhinged characters (especially unhinged women hehe), and Grelle is particularly fun because not only is she red (one of my favorite colors!!) she also has sharp teeth which are always fun to draw. In general, anime characters are fun to stylize because I have the freedom to adapt their features in my style!!! So I'm really really happy you like my Grelle :')

Here! Have a scrapped sketch frame from the animation as a thank you ;w;!

Also sorry for the slightly delayed response!!! I love doing these silly little doodles of my persona to show my appreciation for these kind messages which is why they sometimes take a little to get to! :')

(Also I really love your fanfic The Story of Grelle The Reaper!!! It's one of my favorites in the fandom!)

the crazy thing is i didnt even need to move back w my parents immediately the leasing office just told me i would have to give a 60 days notice to get myself off lease hence responsible for my half of rent during that period and then they told my ex something different (that i dont have to give 60 days) and we confirmed w them so lol. that kinda changes everything. i could have found a place in raleigh or whatever idk but i already immediately got discharged from my therapy program bc i thought i couldnt stay in raleigh anymore so this is rly annoying its like constant whiplash LOL. and now i got a man in charlotte to so idk what to do. i prob need time to recharge anyway so im just staying w my parents for now but i dont view it as a sustainable environment thats good for me in the long term so ig ill just figure out what i wanna do. but anyway would habe been cool if the leasing office knew what was up Last week before they told me wrong information but

brainworms about the dami cuts tims line issue again ohhh my god

tim just not... mentioning exactly what damian did when he taps dick in to get to the bottom of it? like there isnt an. indication that it was a potentially lethal action. and there are so many interpretations for why he wouldn't see fit to share this information and not one of them is mentally well of him

dicks response being like c'mon tim at least pick a harder password. it only took him 6 hours to crack :/

"here i'll make the password to your unhinged contingency plans one of our injokes :)" BABYGIRLS YOU ARE BOTH INSANE. YOU ARE BOTH INSANE PEOPLE.

the reveal that damians entry was like. blatantly among the contingencies for The Good Guys, but like, since DICK wasnt on there, damian very reasonably takes that to mean hes still on the outside of the us vs them in tims mind. (and hes not even like. wrong, except the concept of "us" is... extremely nebulous to tim at this point. and he also just feels like if dick goes bad he, tim, might as well just lay down and die.) which damian cares about enough that he needed to kill tim about it (<- fine and normal, damians never done a thing wrong in his life)

(pause to weep about the "its not fair" panel)

honestly though my favorite part genuinely is that it did not at all occur to dick to chastise damian for essentially picking the lock on tims super secret diary and then not liking what he found in it? never even crossed dicks mind. tim should simply get better locks or, failing that, never write down stuff other people might find and be upset by. just keep it all locked up in your noggin like i do :)

dick like DID have a point that tim should have learned from bruces mistakes re contingency plans but like. the issue with bruce was that the info got leaked and a Villain tm used it to take down the Good Guys tm. the issue in *this* situation is an ally read it and got his feelings hurt. and the ally is a traumatized 10 year old. SO LIKE.

yeah you know what youre right dickie. just change the passwords. its fine. everythings fine.

also. god. i will never stop finding the self-fulfilling prophecy spiral (ie, "you don't trust me and that hurts so i might as well be worthy of your distrust") compelling. damian sweetie you can kill tim as much as you need to until you feel better

hrgrffgh the only like. solid indication that tim feels unsafe re damian is when he says to dick "you get it, right?" and references the league which like. okay. so you're not still worried about murder attempts from Damian.* youre worried about ra's. and you're being a jerkface.

*TBHHHH cutting tims line was not... okay actually i have a lot to say about damians mental state that doesnt rly fit in the bullet point format but i don't actually think damian was Attempting Murder this time so much as stewing and then abruptly lashing out without having fully conceptualized the consequences, and i can and will back up this opinion in a court of law,

but ohhhh my godddddddddd damian. sweetie

also like obligatory disclaimer tim doesnt really care that much about murder attempts on his person lol hes a superhero it comes with the territory. its always funny to me when ppl act like tims beef with damian is over any of the legit reasons he could have to have beef, like. no its the irrational petty ones dude 100%. (did i say its funny to me. i meant annoying)

#dc #still going thru my drafts lol #that last point. if anyone reads it in bad faith ill attack with my fangs and claws #i support (some of) tims wrongs and i think him having beef with a 10yo is funny #🤷

no one cares under the cut <3

(this is literally just my stream of consciousness being jotted down ksjdke)

LRJWKDHKWJDKEJDKEJWKW. this person i went to school with. has made me make her TWO!!!!!!! custom necklaces. and then said “oh sorry i can’t pay for that :/“ once i’m finished. and it’s MY FAULT for not making her pay first but i thought maybe the first time was just a fluke or something ??? she ghosted me for 3 weeks and then said “yeah i can’t afford this sorry :/“ when i ALSO!!!!! was going to sell her a custom for extremely cheap/materials only cost bc i knew she was going thru it and i think everyone deserves some dopamine. just very annoyed about it <3

and also i spent so much time and effort and money on my latest collection and got 3 orders and i feel rly devastated over it! it’s absolutely no one’s fault like i totally understand no one has disposable income rn and also it was a very niche project. i think i’m mostly upset that i was rly proud of it and thought i outdid myself and then it didn’t work out how i wanted :/ absolutely cannot blame anyone it’s just such a gamble and it’s hard to navigate. like sometimes people will be so into something i didn’t think they’d like and then other times it’s radio silence <\3 and i’m not sure how to traverse that but it’ll come with time!

also also i finally got into a fucking markettt but it’s on a day i’d usually work. and my boss won’t take over for me and let me go! even though she knows how much it means to me and how much it would help me! and i have covered for her NUMEROUS!!!!! times so she could go to fucking concerts. CONCERTS!!!!! and she won’t let me go to something that would actually help me significantly both professionally and financially! on top of her tormenting me and making me cry. i have done everything for her so blindly for almost two years… i even made a sheet for the day she’d have to take over with a to-do list and responsibilities AND ran it by my team who was happy to cover for me. and i told her i’d be there until i HAD to leave for the market. and she still said NO!!!! without even hearing me out! i fucking hate her i hate my job i hate how i’ve been feeling i. ugh. ugh.

also x3 my grandfather died on friday and i feel a little torn up about it bc on one hand we weren’t close but on the other we could have been. so i��m grieving who he could have been to me. and he was my last grandparent so that feels very bizarre. and i have to be work during his viewing and funeral. lol

ok <3 thanks if you read this sorry i’m like this xox

my cousin and aunt are coming to visit next week and it's gonna be such an annoying and insufferable time... asking god why it has to be now when I rly need to focus on setting myself up for the semester, like im so nervous abt grad school and the unfriendly pace of it and how it starts picking up speed so I want to help myself out by being on top of it and I need time and space for that 🧘🏽‍♂️

my cousin gets on my last nerve and I do feel for her but she has just as much agency as the rest of us and she's 30 yo and needs to take responsibility for her life instead of taking out her unhappiness on everyone else,, I was talking to my mom and sister abt how I think she hates me lol and my sister was like she does bc she's jealous and intimidated by you and my mom goes everyone's jealous of you lmaooo but it's so mind boggling cuz she has just as much room to do what ive done in making choices and changes that I know will make me happy . today I was saying all this to my mom abt her and my mom goes not everyone's as lucky as you 🙄.. and yes I am lucky in many ways but I also carved out this life for myself piece by piece, my mom hates to give me credit but that's bc I pried my life from her hands oops . all of this is there but what rly boils my blood abt my cousins behavior is how she tries to manipulate /use /bully my sister bc she's so young one day I'm gonna punch her in the face

#like she'll wait til i leave the room to ask my sister heavy questions and she'll vent and dump all her emotions on her #shes always saying the weirdest shit!#and obviously she doesnt fuck w me bc i cant stand her bs and ill tell her the truth #tragic that we grew up together and used to be so close and shes supposed to be like an older sister to me #but she tossed me aside and now wants to be rly close to my sister #and im not even bitter its just like. we could be just as happy as when we were kids if u were normalllll #im just sad it all changed somewhere along the way

i cant stop thinking abt this so i have to take it to tumblr, but GODDDDDDDD this is SUCH a ctntduo song in the perspective of cquackity im collapsing to the ground and exploding into a million pieces

ive been a fan of this song for a very long time, but for some reason never realized how much of a ctntduo (well, mostly cquackity) song it is. i rly rly would love to write down ALLLL my thoughts on this bc im unreasonably brainrotting rn - but FUCK am i terrible at analysis, so ill just give some simple 1k word food for thought. feel very welcome to add on any more interpretations

these lyrics kinda speak for themselves i mean cmon

Catch my breath and hold it for me I'm wasting my time, trying to make up my mind

im not rly sure how to interpret the first line other than a kiss (especially shotgunning, with the mention of the cigarette later on n just general "catching my breath")? and im so sorry

but, if we are to commit to the kiss narrative; the second line would be cq trying to figure out as to whether hes in love with cwil, "wasting [his] time, trying to make up [his] mind". he sees this as a waste of time not only because it frustrates him and its smth so difficult to figure out compared to how miniscule it seems, but he knows cwilbur will just leave him eventually anyway, so why is he thinking so much about it?

also the "and hold it for me" line could be accentuated by cq wanting cwil to hold onto smth of his (in this case his breath ig lmao). coincidentally tying into his desperation for legacy - but in a much more personal and intimate way

I'm sitting here as the chandelier is whispering in my ear Saying, can I get a cigarette? No you'll never be mine

idunno how to interpret cwilbur as a chandelier (if i saw him as the sun of their dynamic then that would def be smth, but that title belongs to cq). if thought of broadly, could be cq viewing him as smth of value? his light? a holder of many candles? just a pretty object? fuck knows

but, nonetheless; the "chandelier" is cwilbur, whispering into cquackitys ear, either literally whispering into his ear, or just cwil trying to persuade him. could be some sort of silly mind game where he'll ask if he can get a cigarette, in his little cwilbur way, and somehow get smth out of it. like, he'll ask, and wether he does or doesnt get the cigarette, thatll insinuate smth. the "im sitting here" is just cq sitting in his office as cwilbur annoys him btw lol

cq then declines. he tells himself cwilbur will never be his, so he shouldnt try, its not worth it. (the line could be interpreted as a way of saying "we'll never be in such a peaceful setting where you can ask smth from me so casually", idunno)

and if we're going into the shotgunning side of things; cwilbur could be asking for a cigarette to do the same thing quackity did to him - resulting in the "no youll never be mine" as cquackitys (mental or vocal) response. like, "no, your breath will never be my possesion (mine)". AND AND if we're stretching this further; the "no youll never be mine" could mean cquackity not wanting to hold onto smth of cwilburs, not wanting to commit to a thing he knows will fall apart (or, also, evaporate haha). this can be seen competitively aswell

Can you come around tonight? And sing me a lullaby

even if cquackity tells cwil to get out of his country, and keeps pushing him away, he doesnt actually mean it. he wants cwil to come and he likes their competition, their dynamic, the attention, and he realizes hes lonely without it

the lullaby could either mean cq wanting cwil to sing him a song like at nikis bday party, or just wanting comfort from his rival. he could be yearning for their relationship to become softer, more vulnerable, less hateful, something so sweet as a lullaby, even if he knows its impossible

Just take my heart and break it Can you come around tonight?

cq again thinking falling in love is worthless, or wanting cwilbur to just get it over with and break his heart already so they dont have to keep the painful momentum lingering on. maybe give cq a final reason to truly hate this man

yet even when cquackity wants cwilbur to get it over with, his yearning persists, and he again just wants cwilbur to keep coming, keep pursuing him

its also a juxtaposition to the softness from the pair of lines above these, where cq knows he cant have the lullaby, so might aswell go for what he knows is possible - something harsh. what hes used to

I might be the enemy But nothing quite hits like you (No)

cq acknowledging their rivalry, understanding if cwilbur wouldnt wanna come over or stay with him .

but he also acknowledges the way "nothing quite hits like [cwilbur]", in the metaphorical sense of a drug. hes addicted to their rivalry, aswell as cwilbur as a person. if we wanna stretch this further, it can also funnily coincide with wilburs drug van beginnings, now cwilbur being the drug

the "(no)" in the end could be cq telling himself to stop feeling like this, stop wasting time on his rival, when hes got other things to do. to stop thinking of cwilbur as smth he cant let go of

SOOOOO FUCKING POGTOPIA ERA CORE WAAAAAAA

Take this pen and write for me Oh write me a song and I'll try to forget it

these first 2 lines can be interpreted as nikis bday party, singing and writing (parody) songs to each other. iirc cquackity would ask cwilbur for songs, but dont take my word for that lmao. also a thing to note is cq offering smth to cwilbur (a pen), to get smth in return (a song)

i have some thoughts on the "ill try to forget it" but no clue how to write them down tbh. sorry

Oh I'm standing there, as the man upstairs Comes crashing through the ceiling Saying where's my fucking cigarette? With fire in his eyes

the "man upstairs" is obv cschlatt, "crashing through the ceiling", "fire in his eyes" as hes being harsh and demanding, cq just standing there having to take it. "man upstairs" can be either interpreted as god (which we wont be interpreting as but might aswell mention lmao), or someone in power - which obviously cschlatt is. holding both legal and emotional power over cquackity

this could be either pre-nikis bday party (white house incident), post (the contract signing thing), or just cquackitys time with cschlatt in general

the bitterness of schlatt demanding "wheres my fucking cigarette?", which has him expecting cquackity to give him something, give him what he wants, because he knows he'll get it as cq has no other option - can be juxtaposed by the more gentle whispering request of "can i get a cigarette?" by cwilbur from earlier in the song, where depending on the tone theres a possibility itll have strings attached and be a manipulative tactic, or just be a simple casual request from a friend. if we're going for the softer route; then cwilbur doesnt know whether he'll get what he wants from cq, so he doesnt demand it. he just asks, takes his chance

Can you come around tonight And sing me a lullaby Just take my heart and break it When you come around tonight? I might be the enemy But nothing quite hits like you

my interpretations r the same, but this time, with the "when you come around tonight", he knows cwilbur is coming. its their routine. plus cq no longer has the "(no)" at the ending line, as hes accepted his feelings now

though what could accentuate that difference further is with the last set of lines

But as all my patience Starts to dry And my feet leave skids across the sand Then I'll know that you've won

cq could be growing impatient with cwilburs incompetence, or smth to do with him growing impatient at how theyre afraid of seeing each other after what happened in ho16. theres 100% potential for a better interpretation though

then we have the sands of las nevadas being skid ofc. this could be interpreted as cquackity kicking the sand in frustration at the prospect of wilbur winning or cq losing (haha) his patience. OR with the more proper definition of skidding; cq frantically searching for cwil as hes left for utah, leaving "skids across the sand" (<- and if we're going with this narrative; the "but as my patience starts to dry" applies to him searching for cwil but losing his patience, or losing his patience at how theyre afraid of seeing each other so he takes the first initiative, but not finding him)

he realizes their competition has ended, and while it doesnt particularly fit their characters to have any of them win - in cquackitys perspective it could either be cwil winning as hes gotten a happy ending, or having yet another person in his life leave him in the dust (or, well, sand)

And I'll run Back to where I came from

i actually dont rly know what to interpret this as if im gonna be honest

i guess at face value with the "cq searching for cwil" narrative, him going back to las nevadas, or more specifically his office, sitting down in defeat (also another possible case of cwilbur "winning", cq not being able to find him). could aswell be cq going to the lmanberg crater? if we're taking the "back to where i came from" more seriously. even though cq didnt come from lmanberg, i guess its the closest thing to where he came from in the dsmp in this sense, and ties more into cwilbur

"though what could accentuate that difference further is with the last set of lines"

now going to what i said a little earlier, what i mean by it is what makes cquackitys newfound acceptance more emotional is the way its immediately followed by cwilbur leaving him, his heart being taken and broken just as he asked, but not how he wanted. which makes the word "skid" a lot more potent, as hes frantic in his search for the man hed finally accepted his love for

------

and yknow whats the most fucked up if u havent actually listened to the song yet?? the slot machine noises in the bg. please this is such a cquackity song

also, as im almost done writing all this, i realize the genius page has a few parts of the lyrics wrong that were different in the official spotify lyrics thingy (like the "(no)" from the second set of lines just being an "oh", and the "no youll never be mine" actually being "i know youll never be mine" lmfao) - but i dont think they make much of a difference anyway, so who cares, this is abt psycho-competitive minecraft boys

ok. im done now. if u read it all then i may offer u a kiss. goodbye

#tntduo #c!tntduo #c!quackity #c!wilbur #c!schlatt #<- a little bit #long post #quinnotalk #tumblrimp #Spotify #rb

Instances of Mike “reciprocating” Will

Reciprocate: respond to a gesture or action by making a corresponding one

*this is just from my own head so sry if i get some quotes wrong or what not

In 1x1, Will tells Mike, “it was a 7”, putting party needs above his own. Mike later tells Lucas “Will put the party’s needs before his own”, implying they need to do the same for him.

In season 1, Will doesn’t lie to Mike in episode 1, even though Lucas and Dustin tell him to lie, and Mike tells El “friends don’t lie” (reciprocating to Will not being able to lie to him in 1x1) (I’m also pretty sure Mike and Will never lie to each other, except for 4x8 when Will does lie to him)

“The Demogorgon it got me,” Will says to Mike once he revives. Mike then later responds with a D&D campaign where Will is the king (he is responding to Will’s way of dealing with his trauma through D&D) (in the comic, he says that he needs to make Will a hero, not a victim) In season 2, Will says everyone treats him like a baby, beside Mike. He only opens up to Mike. Mike was still being so responsive to Will and caring, but was extremely sensitive to his actual needs and how he’d like to be treated

In s3, there is an obvious lack. But - even Mike’s most likely PROJECTION literally is reciprocating to what Will feels, and WILL CONFIRMS IT

Mike: What did you think? That we would just sit around in my basement and play games for the rest of our lives?

Will: Yeah. I guess I did.

Like, Mike literally says/knows the exact thing Will wants? Why does he have this idea in his head in the first place? HM? And then, “it’s not my fault you don’t like girls,” LOLOLOLOL. It’s the same.

Also, I think another thing to note is that Will is fine without playing D&D ever again, imo, when he puts the D&D stuff away - he’s made rest with it, but then Mike SHOWS RECIPROCATION and is like, “that’s the donation box!” Proving that, yeah, he doesn’t want to stop playing D&D either. WTH are you doing Will???? And then he asks, what if you want to join another party? Which is again, just an interesting thing to ask, and Will says NOT POSSIBLE and Mike GRINS!

And… then in 4x1, Mike shows further reciprocation by being a part of Hellfire, and being annoyed of Lucas choosing Basketball over D&D, LOL, just like Will was with him last season ~ The reciprocation is immaculate. Like, all his attitudes towards D&D is proven to just be complete BS in season 3 with how season 4 starts…

And also how he says “We are not kids anymore” to Will, but then later, to El, says, “sorry I sound like a 7 year old.” Like again ~ feels like an obvious hint towards that whole fight with Will in 3x3 being a complete projection of HIS FEELINGS for WILL that are also CONFIRMED by WILL himself when he says, “yeah, I guess I did” Ugh. Dumb ass, Mike Wheeler.

Anyways onto season 4 ~

4x2 - mike being upset that will does not pay attention to him/barely talking to him, reciprocating will being upset about the same things ;_;

4x4 - mike says he feels like he lost will, reciprocating will’s feelings that he lost MIKE - in the script it’s literally confirmed that this whole CONVERSATION is mike being reciprocal to Will because of ‘yes! Yes makes total sense’ :)

4x5 - mike reciprocating to will’s feelings of it being hard to open up because what if they don’t like the truth? He NODS

4x8 - mike being reciprocal to what will is saying in his speech “about el” but rly he is most likely just projecting because he literally only said that he feels like he ‘lost will’ and was ‘worrying too much about el’ and literally says the same stuff to el, during his monologue, that will said to him in the van… like where was this coming from. Why didn’t you know how to explain it before/know what to say before will explained HIS feelings for you (behind el)

Anyways, Mike is always reciprocating to Will’s feelings, so … if we are following the pattern…

7. If one partner was preparing another partner a bath, what scents would they choose? Would they get the temperature right? Would they leave them to their own devices or offer to wash them (or just their hair or their back)? Would they also undress or join them in a tub?

11. Do they live in their ideal climate? If not, does each partner of the ship wish they were living in the same sort of environment or do they disagree on preferences of weather and traffic and other relevant living-considerations?

12. When they can't have dinner until very late, what sort of meal do they share? Do they skip it? Do they dine out?

14. How often does each partner cry? How do their partners engage or react to the differences in emotion between themselves and their partner(s)?

18. What is a piece of advice or a lesson or a sentiment that each partner imparted on another that they ended up taking to heart or that they hadn't realized they'd needed to hear?

19. When they have to travel, is one partner responsible for travel documents and / or other tasks (like packing), or does each partner handle their own materials? Is one partner more often the designated driver / responsible for their mounts or similar?

(Srry for the late answers!! Thank you for the questions!!🩷) Long post so I will put these under a cut!

7. Hmm I actually wrote a little thing before about ebi in a bath, so I’ll do this one with Ebrietas and Lovelace. I think Lovelace would know all of the little intricate details about Ebrietas’s routine tbh. He thinks Ebrietas smells soft and warm (my brain is like balsam candle?? Warm cotton? Frankincense??? Cinnamon?? Stuff like that) he’d undress him for the bath and use a loofah or a sponge and wash him, he’d use his hands to wash his hair (Ebi’s hair curls up when it’s wet, Lovelace loves to play with it). Depending on the size of the bath tub though, he might get in with him, though Lovelace is rly big (7’6) so he prob wouldn’t fit into a small tub with him. I think Lovelace would be so tender with him though for this sort of thing. 🥺

11. Ebrietas for both Lovelace and Erenville can’t stand the climates they’re both from. He’s a winter baby, he loves the cold, wind, snow, ice, etc. Lovelace doesn’t like the cold, he will complain about it, even Sharlayan is cold to him, but he frequents Sharlayan often not only to visit (annoy) Ebrietas, but for business he just bundles up a lot more. Lovelace travels a lot anyways so he’s been in a bunch of climates, usually when they are somewhere cold, he’ll stay in his cabin instead of being out on the deck of the ship like he usually is. Ebrietas would probably be so cranky if he visited to Golmore jungle, Dalmasca in general unless he was visiting the mountainous regions specifically because of how hot it is there. He’s more like a Veena than a Rava tbh. (He’s accompanying Lovelace and the crew in Tural so he better get ready for that too, Erenville asked him nicely and he hesitantly agreed)

12. Hmm I’ll say Elidilace for this one, usually Lovelace will cook something, for some reason, he doesn’t really trust Elidibus to cook since he doesn’t technically need to eat and probably hasn’t cooked in over 10,000+ years so he would cook the both of them something light. Lovelace grew up eating spicy food, but if he’s dining with someone he knows can’t take it, he’ll accommodate. They’d probably eat stew chicken or a light fish soup or something (Lovelace’s village & people eat Jamaican cuisine cos I’m projecting LOL 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲)

14. Surprisingly out of any of the pairings, I’d say Lovelace cries the most. He’s the haughty guy, but he’s also doing most of the difficult work as the warrior of light. Sometimes things get to him or his past will open up old wounds and he’ll cry, usually in private. I think Ebrietas and Elidibus see this happen most. Ebrietas isn’t good with dealing with other people’s emotions so he’ll usually sit next to Lovelace silently, just being there as a presence for him. Sometimes he asks Lovelace about it and they’ll have a conversation about it to help ease the pain. Elidibus will be by Lovelace’s side, wiping his tears away, planting kissing on his face, and allowing him to vent. He offers Lovelace, like Ebrietas, a person to lean on if he needs the silence, sometimes Elidibus will talk to him about his past, travels, etc. in case it’s a much needed distraction.

Ebrietas doesn’t cry often and he’s usually very confused and angry at himself when it does happen, he usually won’t notice at first. Lovelace will either stay some ways away from him or embrace him. He usually doesn’t ask why he’s crying, Ebrietas usually will tell him what bothered him, though sometimes he holds back. Erenville will comfort him and ask him if he’s ok, offer to take him on a walk, offer to buy him a confectionery or the like. He’s very patient with him.

18. Oh boy the biggest one I think is Lovelace and Ebrietas. They kind of crack each other open a lot of the time. Ebrietas definitely learned to be more open to talking to (or at least tolerating) other people because of Lovelace being so insistent on being around him. They absolutely were enemies for the longest time, Ebrietas hated him so much at first like clawing at him like a feral cat because someone would dare be so disrespectful to him when everyone who was disrespectful to him was either brutally killed by him or too scared to be because they were scared of being killed by him. Lovelace taught Ebrietas patience whether he likes it or not, he is more patient and approachable now than he was before he met Lovelace. He’s not angry about it, just more resigned now.

19. Lovelace and Erenville for Ebrietas for sure, they both know their ways around. Ebrietas was basically stuck in his family mansion for most of his life so he doesn’t know how to go about travelling other than teleporting. Erenville is good with directions and Lovelace has been flying in airships 90% of his life, he knows his way around, he’s a certified globetrotter. He’s the one in charge of the steering of the airship/ other mount. Ebrietas knows his way around the sea of stars, not hydaelyn so he’s usually leaving that stuff up to them. He’ll pack his own stuff and that’s it.

What are your post-str Shinaya hcs?

this got so long. its my blog i am not putting a read more. deal with it. its shinaya hour

i want and need a role reversal. i want drama. post str shinaya break up without even being together first. ayano keeps waiting for shintaro to Do something because she's like. okay its been 2~ years and by now she CRINGES at remembering how she acted around him so shes like ok i CANNOT cling to him like that AGAIN. if he wants to come around he will but shintaro is yknow. like that. so obviously he fucking doesnt like honestly hes still sort of acting the same around her like less mean but still a bit dismissive, mostly out of embarrassment though cuz mekatrio wants to kill him+harutaka and momo tease him when he has Moments with ayano so he kinda wants to spare himself that embarrassment so hes like sweet in private then cold in public and ayanos like ????????????????????? does he like me or not what is going ON but also ayano and her amazing awesome self steem issues are like he fucking HATES me im the most annoying person in the world !!!!!!

so she eventually keeps her distance and obviously he notices and shintaros like oh fuck i messed UP because now theres like this sort of misunderstanding and the only way to clear it up is healthy communication but you know DAMN WELL he wont do that but somehow he finds it less mortifying to go around looking like a kicked puppy in a wet cardboard box around her desperately trying to get her attention making ayano even MORE confused.

eventually after a while of being in a circus i think hed get the balls to ask her out himself. probably bc of haruka/takane/momo telling him he's a fucking idiot bitch. anyways i think shintaro tries to kiss ayano and they hit their faces against each others and it really hurts💗🙏

btw thats only them getting together i think. but also that's how they break up and get back together over and over and over with like the exact same precedure everytime. on and off shinaya my beloved.

anc duhhh obviously im gonna talk abt the yuukei quartet Have u met me. takanes like another funny part of the whole thing like i know ive talked abt it but im obsessed with codependent shintaka *holds head* bc ayanos jealous of takane for how vulnerable shintaro is with them unlike with her and takane is individually close to both so shes kinda being dragged by both of them but especially shintaro forcing them to play as their relationship therapist and she fucking hates it but someone has to fucking do it apparently because shintaro and ayano cant talk like normal people. haruka keeps more distance than takane like its something they need to do themselves yknow and tells takane they shouldnt rly get in the way but shinaya KEEP going to her and also takanes insane and still feels responsible for shintaro bc (gestures at the whole ene thing) yeah so its tough for her to say no. like takanes obsessed with shintaro plus sees how pathetic shinaya are being and takane enomoto when they decide to obsess over others so they dont have to think about herself am i right😃<- what haruka tells her . she does not appreciate the comment. the whole thing also causing harutaka drama ougghhh shinaya is so messy that theyre contagious. but haruka is the 1 yuukei quartet member with any emotional intelligence so harutaka have actual communciation so theyre more caught up abt this being like a sorta messed up thing between the whole group and their relationships. on and off shinaya ft unwilling(?) relationship therapist takane ft an even more unwilling haruka who just wants his damn girlfriend to stop cancelling their dates to go stop shintaro from crying at ayanos feet begging her to take him back for the second time this month

ok and.........actual Break Up shinaya where its like Enough for ayano bc thats a fucking insane relationship to have so shes like lol maybe i should get therapy👍 and shintaro again is pathetic and desperately trying to gain her affections back but he just looks so pathetic and its funny. they dont rly stop hanging out bc they wouldnt do that and also its not like shintaro will just leave the dan LOL but thru it all the mekatrio are like KILLING HIM with their eyes especially kano god dont get me started on the one sided(?) kanoshin of it all. i love kano and shintaro having this weird fucking tension during the breakup augh kano little meowmeow the amount of self hatred he feels ok im getting sidetracked shinaya ends up together again basically. in my sitcom delusion shintaro finishes his first song Ever and its abt her and then she hears it everywhere and its so damn embarrassing bc theyre broken up but she still likes him so much it makes her look stupid amd the stupid song brings them back together ummmm sorry. my shinaya era (holds head) i will study them under a microscope

#headcanons #I'm trying to stop apologizing for givint long answers cuz like #u asked also its well known im a talking machine and also its my kageblog. this is EXACTLY what the blog is for.#ask tag #ayashin divorce

🤝 critiquing the thing but enjoying it .. i get you!! honestly idk when you last watched it (after it got cancelled after s2?) and i will say that like. i was watching it for the first time with a friend who was rewatching + he didn't remember much abt them either. but the relationship just has. dubious foundation (imo) that does Not get addressed 😭 i won't say anything on the actual plot of their relationship but don't be worried 😭 im more talking about the state of the writing for both characters because it never seems to get proper resolutions or depth where it desperately needs it

i really enjoy the concept of yja most of the time (s1, most of 2, most of 4) i just wish the writers didnt bite off more than they could handle because i stare at the writing sometimes. that being said. the middle of season 4 is some of the most fun i think i had its genuinely so so good hehe. hope u have fun with it when u get there.. the state of the overall writing for yja i think acts like an inverse bell curve. theres still good to be found tho :]

u dont feel like a newcomer to me!! theres just like. a staggering amount of history and iterations of every character 😭 i feel like ill never get over feeling new either!! at some point u just give up and frankenstein

happy to share more abt kon tho :) im far from an expert like i havent Finished everything hes in or anything like that but from one "anger is an okay response to grief and trauma" defender 2 another i am clinking my glass against urs 🥂

nooo it’s not giving up, frankensteining IS the goal! i’m reading to ADD to the amalgamation, THIS! is my design!!

in all seriousness, i’m glad to hear that yja picks up in later seasons bc i Did stop when it got cancelled, didn’t even know they had as many as 4 seasons tbh. i was rly just gonna return to this thing blind lol, good to know there’s still stuff to look forward to!

i kinda hated romance as a kid tho so i think going into it now with those nostalgia goggles is giving me that expectation anyway. younger me was preparing current me for the worst 😔👊 god i forgot how annoying romantic subplots were in cartoons, my past is coming back to haunt me…

also i totally feel you on never finishing comics, even abt our faves, we are like this 🤝 we’ll get there tho, slowly but surely…

#man don’t even get me started on character frankensteining i have a whole process abt it it’s an Ordeal </3 #danswers #dc #yja #im kinda excited to review s2 it’ll be rly interesting to compare to my s1 thoughts #agh i love documenting my dc thoughts it’s like a personal timeline archive that i’m dragging everyone else into hehe

ive been neglecting my inbox so im answering all the asks rn. sorry...if you’ve been waiting for a response.

yes go ahead!! Also ik it is hard to access my FAQ from the app but btw this is in my FAQ its very comprehensive because I get this type of ask a lot LOL. dw it’s not annoying though its easy to answer and I’m glad ppl like my art enough to use it and also care abt crediting!! its in my faq not because i dont like to answer but more so u guys dont need to ask LOL

thank you!! I dont see much infinity train content ever either. when i was making infinity train fanart everyday i felt like i was on an island LOL...

honestly I feel like cahiers are decent with posca because theyre not really absorbent and posca marks tend to sit on the page as opposed to soaking through anyways. umm i wouldnt like... use it to do a whole posca piece or anything but i use poscas just for pops of color in my sketchbook pretty often and it holds up ok. sometimes u can see the shadow of the color through the paper bc its thin but thats mostly it. i took pics of some sketchbook pgs and how the back of the page looks so you can see for yourself ( cw for bakudeku LOL ) ...theres a lot of like.. normal brush pen ink and india ink that penetrates the paper more like even compared to the black posca

thank you!!!! I love drawing assorted cephalopods... their proportions remind me of drawing digimon characters LOL.

not right now u_u I’m busy.... but you can always email me at [email protected] to check abt it! sometimes i will do commissions even if im busy because it sounds cool LOL...

lol thank you!! idk if i ship(?) them either but its interesting to think about!!! theyre funny characters to bonk together and i feel like most fanart ive seen doesnt address how funny their relationship could be if it were more exploratory i guess

yk that scene is kind of a meme now but it like genuinely still makes me emotional. when colette makes lloyd promise not to tell the others at the end it breaks my heart

yeah here you go

I feel like I’ve probably talked about this before in another ask post but i dont really think about style because its one of those things that artists should try to change depending upon intention, what you’re drawing and what you want to communicate etc. what people often recognize as style are quirks that an artist maintains throughout changing their subject and approach.....ANYWAYS. thats all to say my style probably just comes out of normal stuff like looking at other art and thinking “I want to do that” or trying out different mediums and methods and settling with whatever feels the best LOL. It’s always changing & growing! Because I’m always learning new stuff!

Theres a lot! I really like the scene when daisukes lying awake in bed thinking abt how ken’s heartbeat felt. And the scene when they have a sleepover and ken wakes up first and looks over to daisuke sleeping LOL idk subtle stuff you can read very clearly as like burgeoning queer moments.. theyre recognizable from my own queer childhood and i love that in a kids anime. also at the end of the series when theyre fighting the final boss dude and ken grabs daisukes arm to ask him to jogress but hes shivering and daisuke just turns to say “youre shaking....” and in revenge of diaboromon when ken goads daisuke into endurance running by taunting him about soccer LOL (jock romance). but one i rly want to mention is theres this youtube video about how ken and daisuke’s honorifics change over the course of the series and how significant it is when they switch over to first name basis and honestly i think about it a lot THEY HAVE GREAT SCENES!! I love ken and daisuke

wow!! thats rad... the sad truth is its just my name with like a shitton of letters taken out. sometimes i abbreviate it even further as mrz and i think to myself haha ... mister z.
