To anyone who followed for my Elder Scrolls content

I wanna make an announcement just in case you’re lingering here. I’ve been doodling for the fandom less and less, so I will not be focusing as much on that type of content as much. Maybe I’ll post occasionally in it. Yet not as often. However, I will still be lurking, liking, and interacting with all the artists I follow because I still love TES.

Prior to this I did make a post that one day I wanted to make merch for Morrowind, but my current situation and my focuses have shifted to Baldur’s Gate 3. So I apologize in advanced. Should I come back to eventually make said merch or anything related, I will let everyone know!

If those following me only subbed for TES, you can feel free to unfollow if BG3 isn’t your cup of tea. I’ll be seeing ya guys : )

#angie speaks #op speaks #genuinely am sorry for lack of TES #I love the content and fandom on tumblr but also I’ve shifted my focused #I’ll be lurking and reblogging still and interacting when I can

it has been brought to my attention that some folks are calling tommy/buck/eddie “tedduck” and personally?? i refuse and reject this. because why tedduck when it can be bummie

bummie is the way

it has two letters from each name, plus it’s got “bum” in it. what more can you ask for

#i refuse and reject tedduck #i know i am but a shadow lurking in this fandom #but the visceral reaction i had reading ‘tedduck’ lmaooo #i can’t #sorry to the tedduckers #tedduck #bummie #lmao #i just had to say something #at least my groupchat gets it 🫡

I’m gonna say something that’s probably not going to be well received in certain circles so let me start by saying this: I believe, with only a few rare exceptions, that you should be able to ship whatever speaks to you the most. And just because I don’t ship something doesn’t mean it’s wrong for anyone else to ship it, and the same for things I do ship, no one else has to ship it too. Who you do or don’t ship will never be a reason I pass judgment on you, ever. Live your best life.

That being said, I want to talk about Horikoshi and straight ships.

(And bakudeku.)

Here’s the thing: Hori has written straight ships into MHA and he’s done it so masterfully that it’s made me ship them without even realizing it. I don’t know if we can call them canon because as far as I know no ship is actually canon yet, but what is canon is the care Hori put into building these relationships.

Kirimina. Hori wrote in a backstory that parallels bkdk that I just adore. There is something about Kiri looking up to Mina and being so inspired by her bravery that it shapes the hero he becomes that is such good content. They’ve had multiple mid-battle moments of protecting and helping each other. I ship Kirimina so hard because of the canon Hori gave us.

I am a low key Denki/Hitoshi shipper but season six kinda hit me in the face with whatever we’re calling Kyouka/Denki these days and now I guess I’m a multi-shipper???? That is how hard Hori hit me with the Kyouka/Denki feels. And he did it the same way as Kirimina, because we have years of content of Kyouka teasing Denki mercilessly, plus the cultural festival band, so when they’re separated in Season 6 and Denki has this intense moment of realization that she’s who he needs to be brave for and it actually works??? I’m a goner.

Heck, I ship todomomo too you guys though I can’t blame Hori for that one, that’s just me being me. The point is that I ship it because the characters Hori gave me struck a chord inside.

But there is one straight ship Hori never once made me ship.

Every time izu*cha showed up I just kinda endured it? It just wasn’t for me. I didn’t see two kids with chemistry, I saw two kids who didn’t know who they were or what they wanted fumbling their way through a will they/won’t they without either of them seeming all that invested in it.

In six seasons and nearly 400 chapters and multiple times revisiting the story I have never once felt any inclination to ship izu*cha

Hori can write straight ships. Hori made me ship his secondary straight ships nearly effortlessly. So if izu*cha was meant to be canon why have I never once felt the chemistry?

You know who has the chemistry? Bakudeku. But here’s the thing: I wasn’t thinking about Katsuki as a possible love interest for Izuku the first time I watched the entire story. I honestly wasn’t paying much attention to him at all, he was everything I didn’t like on the surface so I more or less ignored him despite Izuku holding onto him for dear life. Katsuki never once colored my opinion of izu*cha, they did that all on their own.

It wasn’t until after my first watch through, when I was hungry for more and trolling around tumblr, that I realized people shipped Katsuki and Izuku and it was literally like something out of alignment popped into place in my head.

Oh. Duh. That’s the ship.

I went from zero to a million in a handful of seconds because the chemistry was there, the backstory was there, and boy are Izuku and Katsuki loud about how obsessed they are with each other. Just like Kirimina, just like Denki and Kyouka, Hori planted the seeds throughout the entire series so that when it was brought to my attention everything about the narrative and character development supported it.

And I have to take a moment to explain my dislike of Katsuki at first: I honestly fell for the surface-level interpretation of his character and then kinda wrote him off without much more thought. Which is insane to think about because you can’t really understand MHA without Katsuki, he is so integral to the story as a whole that any version of it without him is skewed so far out of alignment that it’s not even the same story anymore. But I just saw angry boy who yells for no reason and put Katsuki in a box and left it at that.

It wasn’t until I was willing to give his character a second look that I started understanding him, and more importantly, his relationship with Izuku. And it helped that when bkdk was presented to me as a ship that my brain understood immediately why it worked. The canon source material supports bkdk at every possible moment.

I really don’t think it does the same for izu*cha.

#bkdk #bakudeku #I’m being very deliberate about not including actual ship names for the one ship I’m arguing against here #because the shippers for that ship deserve to have their tag filled with positivity and I am not trying to rain on anyone’s parade #mainly I’m just word vomiting something I’ve been thinking a lot about while tumblr lurking #and I guess you could say that Hori doesn’t actually know how to write a solid romance and mistakes his way into it three separate times #but izu*cha reads to me like the token het ship for the main character that Hori doesn’t want to write but has to #there’s no care being put into it except how it highlights the other ships for the two characters #anyway #good for you if you made it this far in to my rambling #or maybe I’m sorry is the better thing to say 😂

I know how I mostly reblog popular audio drama stuff. Because I love and adore it, yeah

but also? my brain is full of smallest stories being amazing.

While my own post is. less. in the sea of Everything I love about that medium…

I do appreciate and give all the stars to every podcast that make my soul sing.

This space is very divergent and yet I don’t feel like an outsider anywhere

All the warm and fuzzy feeling but horrific monstrous stories being directly told in my ears

(yup I can’t add more tags but I do give my heart to more indie podcasts to live there)

is your url a reference to revelation 14:19?? sorry this is so random i was reading the bible for a class and suddenly something clicked

In a roundabout way, but also it's so much sillier than that. It's a grapes of wrath reference, because in the depths of my early CQL obsession I was idly poking around on tumblr and concluded that I should make an account, so as to spare my friends and family. I didn't think very hard about what my name should be- I just went oh, angry grape, the grapes of wrath, winepress of wrath, fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword dada dada dada haha purple. Naturally since all roads lead back to Wei Wuxian this bit

The baby has a cold. Here, take this blanket. It's wool. It was my mother's blanket—take it for the baby. This is the thing to bomb. This is the beginning—from "I" to "we."

popped into my head and made me think about Wei Wuxian and the people he makes his families with & particularly about a-yuan, for values of my mother's blanket that amount to "my necromancy" and "my sister's soup" and eventually "my life!" I know! I promise I know. Even at the time I was aware it was a deeply silly and thematically inconsistent through-line. I picked the first things I could think of because I needed a place to vomit out my thoughts and feelings and was rapidly approaching the end of my bff's patience for the topic and years later here i am.

#me in late 2019 looking at a random object: is this about wei wuxian???#it's not that it was impossible to have a conversation with me that was not about cql. however the possibility that i was thinking about it #lurked in the hearts of my nearest and dearest and not without cause #anyway i apologize to steinbeck but not to mxtx or the cql team because they made me like this #i don't even like steinbeck!!! i am broadly allergic to early 20th cent american literature with maybe two exceptions #however. however i can still acknowledge that i did him dirty there.#sorry to him!!! also ok sorry to mxtx and the cql team even if they did poison my brain #i could have looked at an onion thought of radishes and done great violence against dostoevsky #i do still wish we'd gone with grape of wrath for the bad steinbeck allusions tho #kill the man that's starving you!!!

--- Small IRL Update;; (Semi-Hiatus!) Sorry I've been a bit less active lately, (as if I was super active to begin with but I was trying!). Recently had to pick up a second job to make some ends meet and working two of them has been kicking my ass. 14 hour workdays are tough going an leave barely enough time for sleep let alone writing- that said, I'm trying to settle and acclimate my body to the schedule and once that happens I should be a bit more active and engaging. Sorry to anyone this might inconvenience.

--- The best way to reach me (and to plot or just talk about muses in general!) is on Discord at Vivisekt#8556 or vivisekt. Lmk who you are if you add me. I'll be lurking on the dash and like I said, I'll do my best to try and be present when my body doesn't want to collapse the second I get home. Rip. This will end soon enough, thanks for your patience!

#out of shadows | ooc |--;#ugh the reason i haven't been on as much #or writing as much as i was trying to earlier this week #i am just so physically exhausted #and i just got over a cold (it's not fully done yet)#and once my body is used to the 14 hr days i'll go back to being fine #but until i get used to it i'm just #dragGING AND I'M SORRY #and i'm battling internal issues as well and trying not to succumb to my own hea #d #bleh #ANYWAYS #i'm lurking #add me on disco or s/t

writing today's prompt and slapped in the face by the fact none of five's first companions chose to travel with him. Adric stowed away with four, Nyssa had nowhere else to go, and Tegan wanted nothing to do with him. And for someone who is such an amalgamation of his companions, that is heartbreaking.

#five #oh my baby. does distant self loathing lurk under there somewhere? or just a feeling of being unwelcome and uncomfortable?#arghhhh it's two am now i will hopefully finish this on the way/at work tomorrow and post it from there. sorry!!! vibes on original fic #changed with this realisation. hopefully i have the data to do it.
