You know I am surprise Sebek that is never jealous to anyone who is close to Yuu. It is a boys school and I can imagine some have crushes on her.
#jk jk it's a total tragedy for sebek if he ever loves the same person as the one malleus loves#i swear malleus just loves the company#or is he#he did give me a little heart throb at the masquerade but that's all just yet#i can't really imagine anyone else likes her#malleus draconia#because partly i really don't plan of shipping her in the first place#sebek was a total surprise development fhsdshdh#this question arose at the time she was being shoved to jack#i can see that jack is totally someone to be jealous at ha ha; he is a total hunk#but i feel like sebek see him as a solid trustable friend than a snatcher who would disrespect him#i did think of a scenario from how sebek is jealous of malleus drinking coffee with silver that goes like...#yuu talking to silver; sebek be like “WHAT WHY ARE U TALKING TO SILVER MORE”#and yuu be like “bcs silver whispers when he talks”#and stubborn as he is sebek be like “I CAN TALK IN WHISPER TOO”#and he sat there and tried so hard to whisper which pretty much end up as at the very least normal talking voice#and Sebek just “GRRR NGRHRHHRH!!!!!! YOU'LL SEE I'LL WHISPER PROPERLY ONE DAY!!!! AND U'LL HANG OOUT WITH ME MORE”#fjsdsdj#but i don't even know what would yuu talk with silver#i didn't even realize before that silver is actually in 2nd class#they look so same age#yuu be like - . - to everyone anyhow#she just keeps the guy act while brushing off the thought whether the others already know she is a girl or not#sebek zigvolt#twst yuu#twst mc#twisted wonderland#twst#fanart

Ok SO
Canonically his dad is a cop and there are a couple jokes about his parents not loving him, dudes dad straight up said "actually, do we love you?" Like sir damn anyways im taking that and running with it SO
Giving him a fucked up situation of him and his dad always butting heads and both of them escalating things constantly, and as he got older the ends to the arguments went from getting grounded or punished to getting kicked out or Duncan just leaving, probably escalating to his dad kicking him out semi regularly and eventually his mom or dad telling him to come back home to make a kinda fucked up cycle
And like i know they gave the convict kid a cop dad for the laugh like its not that deep at ALL
but like that sets up sucha fucked power dynamic and i want to use that
and we never find out what got Duncan sent to juvie for the first time, its said off screen while some characters are spilling embarrassing or dark secrets and in my fucked up world either he accumulated a couple charges while he was kicked out, indirectly the fault of his dad
or worse but more tempting
he got kicked out and his dad arrested him for trespassing
so like idk i just love the idea of a pyromaniac, vandal convict who has no respect for authority or mutual trust having the tragic backstory that his first time getting arrested was at the hands of his father
#daddy issues deluxe edition#duncan angst post complete#Duncan doesn't know how to de-escalate and needs to get the last word#he gets that from his dad btw#so running away is almost like winning#idk how Canadian cops are so im using american cop mentality#which is typically the “shoot first ask questions later” mentality#i think despite his Dad caring about him hed do hurtful shit and only regret it later#and i sincerely doubt they'd talk about it#so it just drives a deeper wedge and makes whats “normal” that more intense#:D#i love taking things too seriously i love overthinking behavior#duncan total drama#jester jabbers#headcannon#angst#total drama#idk man

Genuine question, because I don't know a lot about the topic and you're:
If someone identifies as non-binary and genderfluid, which from what I've gathered means something like "human" instead of male or female, doesn't that imply that women are not humans , like whole complete people with richer inner lives? And why is a dislike for (performative) femininity combined with a preference for things that are stereotypically associated with maleness an indicator that one is genderfluid? Does that mean a woman is only a woman if she loves to do make-up, wants to be a mother, only wears skirts, dresses and high heels, shaves daily, is always kind and never angry, has long hair, hates to get dirty and so on? Because I have never met a woman who's exactly like that in my life, but plenty who liked gaming, sports, being loud, opposed to shaving & make-up, who wore pants every day.
I do not believe this is a genuine question, but I'll answer it as if it was, just in case other people have to deal with this, and would like someone who is patient enough to give them the words.
The argument you're making here is something that already stems from a deep logical fallacy in the beginning argument. You assume "If you are neither A nor B, and instead C, you think that A cannot be C."
It is a logical fallacy to say "X implies Y" when it does not do so. By this logic, I also believe men are not human. By this logic, I believe only nb people are human.
Some - but not all - rectangles are squares. Some - but not all - animals are dogs. Some humans are nb.
I have given no information about how I present, nor my interests. I am not going to give you that information, because it's irrelevant. What I need you to understand is that, again, you are making the incorrect logical assumption that "If a person dislikes X and likes Y, they must be Z." For all you know, I dislike performative masculinity and like stereotypically feminine preferences.
You then assume your own statement is correct and move forward with your logic as if I had debated you. This is not a "genuine question" about how nb people work, this is assuming being nb is based on a series of preferences.
As a teacher, I do think it's important to tell you: even if this is coming from a genuinely confused place: you are conducting bad research. You begin with an inherently flawed question, as it biased and assumes a position I must defend against - "why don't you see women as people?" Then you make logical conclusions about my personhood and experiences and ask inflammatory questions as if you were debating me, which I am not interested in doing.
If you were my student, and genuinely curious about how nb people see gender, I'd have no trouble with you asking an out nb content creator. If you're really trying to collect information, ask honestly, without personal bias. Here's some examples of what a genuine question would have looked like:
- Do your preferences play into your gender identity?
- How has being nb informed how you see femininity and masculinity?
- What tools do you use to express your gender?
You are mistaking gender expression and gender roles as being part of my identity.
You are most crucially mistaking being nonbinary as being part of the binary and having to exist "in opposition" to other genders in order for it to "make sense". One of the most freeing things about realizing I was nb is that I don't exist in opposition to anything - and also that all gender works similarly.
Gender is a describing word, and this can be confusing for some people. In general, we tend to learn describing words in binary - short/tall, old/young, kind/mean. Therefore, there are (many) people who think - feminine/masculine must be oppositional. Gender is also a feeling word - and again, these are words that can be taught in opposition to each other. Hungry/sated, happy/sad, feminine/masculine.
But because gender is such a rare type of word - feeling and describing - it exists outside of binary. It exists more like art exists.
Green can exist in opposition to red, but it also just exists as its own color. Blue is a part of green, but it is also a part of yellow - blue is still its own color, and yellow is still its own color, and green is still its own color. One painting titled "still-life with fruit" may be a series of vague colors and boxes. Another may be a hyper-realistic singular plum. They are both how the artist expresses their personal vision of the fruit. They might even be by the same artist! And although we may compare them, they are not opposites.
One song by Hozier is not in opposition to one song by Britney Spears. They are different styles, not oppositional styles. You may choose to see them as oppositional - but that is your personal opinion, and not fact. And some people may feel and experience those songs as being actually incredibly in-line with each other.
This is why we say: gender is a spectrum. That all gender roles are made up. Personality, interests, and experiences may shape how someone sees and feels their gender, but it does not define how they see and feel their gender.
When we question gender roles and gender expression like this, it tends to make people upset. People like me tend to make people upset. So much bigotry is based on the lie that "feminine" and "masculine" are oppositional. Opposition is rigid and important - it keeps white hegemonic structures in power. I don't have time or space in this post to talk about how rigid gender roles/enforced gender expression rules are not just sexist but also racist, classist, ableist, homophobic, and bigoted; but I really recommend you do the research on how disruption of the gender binary might put the patriarchy at risk.
The thing you feel trapped by - that "being a woman" is a complicated series of rules - is exactly the kind of thing a nonbinary person would agree with you about. We have to fight hard to be recognized for what is a basic truth about our identity - of course we don't believe that gender expression is equivalent to gender identity.
And truth be told... I think you kind of knew that. I think you kind of knew all of this. I am going to hope that you are young. I'll tell you this: I was raised by someone who was a far-right extremist catholic asshole. I certainly didn't have the research/knowledge/exposure to interrogate this stuff honestly until I was probably 23.
I am so much happier now. I hope one day you get the same opportunities as I had. I hope you choose to move away from bigotry.
love u anyway. all this in kindness only.
#to be deleted#do i accidentally give my short lesson on gender here? yeah#<3 in this u can tell exactly the age that i taught for 15 years lmao#but also like.#yeah you got me.... i have never met a woman before and i totally think women are only fembots#meanwhile every person who has ever read my writing:#every 3rd week this bitch is on her bullshit about how unfair gender rules for women are#this is actually more to help other nb people whom i KNOW get questions like this#than it is to inform the anon#who like v clearly is not doing this in good faith#this is just like the 10th one i got like this#that first logical jump of - you think ur not male or female but human so therefore#women aren't people#was just SO wild .... like#yeah!!! that's totally a normal thing to assume!#do you think people who are like ''well yeah im from america#but i wouldnt consider myself to be from any particular state''#are actually saying ''i don't think states are american''#hell when i say#im cuban but i obvi grew up in america im just the daughter of an immigrant#nobody is like -- well. raquel. that means u think no americans live in cuba huh#anyway love u bye#okay to reblog#!!#love u

"haha wylan walks in on jesper kissing the wrong guy" yes funny but moving on, have you ever wondered why Wylan was up there in the first place. Because the last he'd seen of Jesper was him being yelled at by Colm to explain what was going on or Colm would "tan your hide so bad you won't be able to sit down for two weeks". Everyone else finds Jesper getting full government-named very funny, but to Wylan this threat would not seem empty - that is just what happens when sons make mistakes. Consider that he wanted to check on Jesper, to see if he was alright, because though it's not really addressed directly, the story gives us several moments of Wylan not trusting Colm and trying to "protect" Jesper from him. Wylan had been isolated to the point where he only knew one father-son relationship, or even one relationship at all, which was between him and Van Eck. Why would he trust Colm? Maybe he just wandered into the room for a silly plot convenience, but I think he was there to assess the damage and be there for Jesper in case the thing that happens between fathers and their sons happened to him.
#he lies for jesper in the tomb early on bc - as he puts it - he doesn't want to watch colm go from confused to disappointed to angry#and to him this is just the natural progression of things that he's had no reason to question#you mess up and so your father rips you apart body and spirit. duh. but he doesn't want to see it happen to jesper bc he knows it hurts#like. he can't fathom a relationship that doesn't follow this causality. someone help him#i am very normal and think about wylan's undoubtedly fucked up psyche a normal amount#leigh only got into his head for like 5 chapters total. there's so much that most definitely is in there but was not touched on at all#you dont get treated like that for most of ur very young life and come out cool and fine from it after a couple perspective-changing heists#anyway the kissing the wrong guy thing was pretty funny tbh but i feel like the fandom made it boring. overused!!#i'm normal#wylan van eck#jesper fahey#colm fahey#six of crows#soc#tgt#soc meta

I don’t often acknowledge the fact that Nick Bradshaw canonically died in Top Gun, BUT, if I were to do such a thing it would be like when I was thinking the other night (I know- dangerous) and I was like rip to Nick Bradshaw you woulda LOVED the 2008 classic movie Step Brothers.
#nick goose bradshaw#top gun#top gun maverick#top gun 1986#how the fuck do I tag this#no#seriously#that’s a real question#pete maverick mitchell#tom iceman kazansky#ron slider kerner#idk my head is so empty#but full of shit like this#I posted this in an absolute fit of ‘fuck it we ball’ energy#guys#he WOULD have loved Step Brothers#you know#the 2008 classic I watch every three and a half months#because it’s still one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen#you KNOW he and Maverick would reenact the bunk bed scene#and Ice would just come home and be like#???????#please can it just be normal#and slider would be like thoughts and prayers bro#they can be gay in this if you want btw (they TOTALLY) are#but this was more just my stupid thoughts about how like#if Goose hadn’t died you know he would also watch that movie like every three months#and Bradley would be like please stop referencing it#it’s NOT funny#and he’d ref anyway

kinda (very) ironic that the two allegedly "normal guys" in the total drama franchise have some of the most concerning lore/personalities
#yes im talking abt “cool guy” trent & “normal guy” dave#trent?? that guy is a bucketful of concerning family shit#like what tf is up with his parents? why does nearly everything he do have some sort of concerning connection to his childhood?#what is up with his childhood btw that is the big question. trent concerns me greatly#as for dave why is he Like That?#what the hell happened to him that made him retain such strong (and harmful) attachment issues?#and the germaphobia too but that's another topic#the guy said he's always handled his panic attacks by himself wtf#total drama#td trent#td dave#they should meet up and discuss the shitty stuff that's happened to them i feel like it'd be therapeutic#then again considering their characters i doubt either of them would be up for that (at least not right away)#kit stuff#noahtally-famous#(i forgot if there are any “normal guys” in roti or the reboot. and im not counting rr in this btw)

I envision p!noah being like little buddy from the splatoon series
Owen throws him at people and he will bite them until they shake him off or go unconscious whichever is first
Will also probably dig stuff out of the ground that he can just detect for whatever reason
Apologies, I got splatoon brainrot really hard and all I think of when I hear “little buddy” is that little bastard salmon
I really need to play Splatoon 3. I love that series but I just haven't had the time or energy to get into the newest game.
And you're spot on there about p!Noah being Owen's little buddy, especially post "reveal".
-
In Greece, these two would make a killer duo for the wrestling challenge since Owen could and would just scoop up Noah and throw him at the opposing team, encouraging him to run wild. And, oh boy, can p!Noah go wild.
Now, both Courtney and Sierra are pretty overconfident in their assured win for this challenge, since Courtney assumes that Noah and Owen are both relatively harmless (since she didn't witness the bus scene) and Sierra's too hyped up on Defending Cody Juice to really care about who she's facing off against - her main priority here is taking our Courtney for disrespecting Cody. Which is their downfall, since when Noah's launched towards the pair like a missile by Owen, neither of them anticipate the sheer carnage he wreaks upon landing. The two of them come out of the challenge with cuts and bruises aplenty, scattered bite and scratch marks still bleeding sluggishly as they scamper out of the ring tailed by a manic bookworm hot on their heels.
Courtney especially never would've thought the little guy had it in him; the wildness of his eyes and the shine of blood against razor-sharp teeth really painted a picture of a feral beast, as opposed to the generally well-kept and mild cynic she'd come to know. She finds herself genuinely fearing for her wellbeing, at least for a moment.
Then, as the girls exit the ring, Noah stops suddenly. He comes to a standstill at the edge of the ring, centimetres away from disqualifying himself, and all signs of his unhinged mania vanish like smoke. Noah lifts himself from the near four-limbed scampering he'd been doing into his usual nonchalant crouch, brushing the dust from his vest, patting down his hair and (reluctantly) wiping the speckles of blood from his nails and teeth. Regaining his usual composure. Then he turns on his heels to saunter across the ring back over to Owen, who at this point is used to Noah's scarily quick code-switching and greets his carnage-wreaking little buddy with a smile, a thumbs up and a big ol' hug! They won the challenge, after all, that's means for celebration!
(When Gwen comes back from her challenge, she asks Courtney what savage animal she was attacked by - as both Courtney and Sierra look about as worse off as Duncan, who was mauled by a bear - and Courtney promptly answers that she doesn't want to talk about it.)
-
I imagine Owen and Noah's dynamic post-London would essentially be the two of them acting like a dog owner and their overzealous puppy, but they switch roles so often the lines get super blurred. One moment Noah's trying to bribe Owen into taking the fall for him with the sweet treats from first class (it works every time), the next Owen's daring Noah to do something dumb and stupid and just dangerous enough to pique his thrill-seeking interest. They share a braincell and neither of them use it.
#listen... i love and cherish all forms of nowen. romantic platonic idc so long as these two have a dynamic. Do Not Seperate Them.#Owen has scary dog privileges thanks to p!Noah but the dog in question is just a really unhinged shih tzu.#adding to the p!Noah “lore” here my mentioning his ability to switch between “normal noah” and “insane noah” at a whim.#just shifting himself from one end of the sanity spectrum to the other like a groan tube. very unnatural and jarring. he's silly like that.#total drama#psycho!noah au#silly ideas#others' ideas#replies#kinda drafty in here (posts from the drafts)#👈 back at it again with the month old drafts. i'm a tumblr professional guys#also splatoon mention twice in a row???? happy mermay guys.

I forgot how awkward kisses in total drama looked. why do their lips come out like that, they look like tiny sharp beaks lol /lh
Anon I’m thinking it’s because the total drama artstyle is just kinda ugly. I love it to death, I can draw in it near perfectly, its just kinda ugly
#I mean this in the most endearing way possible I swear to god#I love the total drama artstyle#but Noah and Trent’s heads are the size of skyscrapers. most of the girls waists are 2 inches wide.#they just kinda look like that so they just kinda kiss like that Yknow#and guys kissing looks twice as offputting cause (and trust me I’ve checked) there’s only one instance in the show where two thin lips kiss#and that was Beth kissing Harold which was 1 an irregular angle and 2 lancered with vomit#so they haven’t drawn thin lips kissing eachother before!!!!!!!!!!!#the girls having visible lips helps make it look a little more normal. alas. it’s still kinda ugly and we love it for it#total drama#Starry has a question#did NOT mean to rant that much. sorry
