hiatus notice
// Yo. Sooooooooo. I have been trying to find the right words to pop in here but it's been kinda hard haha. I had to find time to elaborate how I felt but that icon up there is basically a little mood rn towards how Owari's story has turned out to be.
Spoilers ahead so please skip if you have not caught up with the latest chapter yet!
I just want to clarify I still am in absolute adoration of the Yuichiro I have loved for so so many years; the admiration I feel for him, the fondness of my comfort character is still there. Writing as Yuichiro has allowed me to treasure some of the best memories here on tumblr and outside as it allowed me to meet my wife and some of my best friends so I will always always be grateful to this fandom and my muse.
Guren, the novels, Ferid and Crowley, the Shinoa squad- I guess I enjoyed up to Mika's resurrection as a demon. After that, everything went kinda downhill. Don't know if it's Kagami's fault, perhaps the editors rushing him so too many ideas are squeezed in together. Idk.
I think the last chapter was such a disappointment that I have to take a further step back from the series until I get some spark back to enjoy again writing as my muse as I have always done.
Crowley did not deserve to go that way, he was such a MASSIVE piece of the story, Horn and Chess- it felt dry, I didn't even feel anything at all when we've all been waiting for this talk between them FOR YEARS. That was made me realise-
damn that sucks. I shed tears for Guren, I sobbed for Yuichiro's grief. What happened to that feeling and connection I had with this serie?
I will be going to Japan in a month or so and I will bring with me my Yu keychain, go to Nagoya just to feel the nostalgia of the good old times haha.
I hope you guys are all doing well and staying safe as always! I hope you understand and as I said already in some previous posts, I'm into the Genshin fandom rn so if you ever want to do a crossover and write over there please don't be afraid to keep in touch heh!
#vivitalks#ooc#puts my heart on here#it does suck#to lose the understanding of something you used to find so so so easy to love

im really not a fan of Rick's recent trend of recycling bits of his writing that got a good reaction the first time and acting as if that's a valid substitute for. actually bothering to write something original a second time around. It's clearly just there as a callback and nothing more.
It's "Nico's rage exploded" and "Percy's rage exploded" with the exact same paragraph formatting. It's CoTG having titles like "My Singing Makes Things Worse, and Everyone Is Totally Shocked" (reference to TLO, when Percy says he thinks his singing would cause an avalanche) or "Pretty Much the Best Good-Night Kiss Ever" (reference to TLO "Pretty much the best underwater kiss of all time") or any other number of near word-for-word references to the first series. It's Nico calling Percy "seaweed brain" in Un Natale Mezzosangue (when Percy says in TTC that anybody but Annabeth calling him that is a major offense). It's Nico and Will falling into Tartarus in TSATS word-for-word referencing Percy and Annabeth in House of Hades, despite it not making any sense for their characters (and otherwise being written as Percabeth 2™). It's the show making huge changes but keeping random "fan-favorite references" (mostly overusing "seaweed brain" and "wise girl" and emphasizing percabeth) only because they're popular in-jokes and considering that a faithful enough adaptation to market it heavily as such. It's lazy writing.
And it's a disservice to the series and to the audience, because it clearly shows Rick doesn't have original ideas anymore (though given all his writing is heavily derivative to begin with, it begs the question how much was original in the first place and how much he has difficulty when he doesn't have a structured mythological plot to work from) and that there is an expectation that the audience will just sit down and accept that behavior hook-line-and-sinker. Everything recently is clearly such lip-service to the audience, either in retcons that are overt speaking-to-camera acknowledgements of things he's been criticized on or wink-wink-nudge-nudges of community in-jokes that have no business in the actual text (see: over-use of ship names in canon). Especially since Rick tends to be about 5 years behind on the fandom uptake. It's just so disappointing to see.
#pjo#riordanverse#tsats crit#pjo tv crit#rr crit#< OH BOY A TRIPLE#MCGA's reference to Jason's concussions in the chapter titles is on thin ice but can stay for now#callbacks can work! in-jokes and references can work! see: Percy's dam joke in Son of Neptune#or Percy in the musical making the joke about his singing causing an avalanche as a reference to TLO#or any other number of references in the musical#but you need to know when they belong and when they ABSOLUTELY DO NOT#and when it's a fun nod and when it just feels like you're copying your own homework#a great example actually - i was recently reading an *excellent* fic by @vivitalks#and in it Jason uses the phrase ''you knock me out'' as a fun nod to Jason's ''you're a knock-out'' in TLH#that's a good little reference! that's how you do it!#a character who has already used one phrase uses a similar phrase. because theyre the type of person to say that phrase.#that's already been established. and it highlights something about their character that they return to that phrase#in that fic it highlights that Jason is a total dork especially when it comes to romance#Percy's ''dam'' joke reference in SoN works because it's only used once very briefly and it's very quickly brushed by#and it's literally Percy making a reference to his own past and acknowledging that he's doing that. it's his own in-joke! that's reasonable#it's not reasonable to expect FOUR DIFFERENT PEOPLE to have the EXACT SAME REACTION to FALLING INTO SUPERHELL#especially when they're established to all be EXTREMELY DIFFERENT CHARACTERS with DIFFERENT DYNAMICS#long post //

#i think it's time to consider a full rebrand#change the url change the header change the icon#i think i should figure out some way to communicate that#while this blog IS very very very multifandom and multi everything#there are some fandoms that feature more prominently#some on a regular basis some in waves#like teen wolf and taz. two heavy hitters in the rotation#i have some tw urls saved but i feel like vivitalks is my whole deal now#and if i had a tw url and put non tw things on the blog that would feel silly to me#but with no fandom affiliation listed or evident ANYWHERE on the surface of my blog#im worried people seeing my blog just assume i have no fandom loyalties or associations#anyway the odds i change my url are low but not zero#also for the mere fact that this url leads to a version of me that is not just online and I don't know if that's wise#if i changed it once i can change it again right#and the icon and header i really DO need to change#i set both of those like four or five years ago. maybe more#my header is a niall lyric for gods sake that has got to change#anyway. just musings! goodbye now#stuff

hey you're a good person to ask this to: is there somewhere a mini dictionary or some compilation of amber's finner slang? i know there's not a whole lot but i wanted it all in one place and i feel like if it does exist you would know. this is @vivitalks btw on anon bc it's a sideblog
There isn't as far as I know! Gives me the idea to include it on a 'finners' page on the wiki though!
Let me see how many I can remember off the top of my head...
Kela sai - hello
Finner - the crew that hung around joshy, psychic blinkshark warriors.
Guppy - nickname for people to 'indicate a lack of respect,' though she also uses it playfully to those younger than her as far as I can tell so it's probably more like that
Clasper - a word directed at people she doesn't like. Means shark penis.
Bubba - unclear whether this is Finner slang but an endearing nick name which she only calls Oksana / Kodira in the course of the show.
Keppa - short for 'keep up', sort of an 'okay? You got that?' like kapeesh<- never spelt this word only said it idfk how to
That's about all I can think of right now.
#sierra speaks#thank you for the ask!#once again saying to the people who have sent me asks but.not seen them answered; thank u. sorry. im sitting on them#like a mother hen#taz ethersea#the adventure zone ethersea#ethersea#amber gris

OHOHOHOOHOH!!!!! BLESSINGS!!!!! >:) I do LOVE a project and I’ve been meaning to get back into it 👀👀 I think it would be a worthy endeavor while waiting patiently for new chapters to post.
(Also if it wasn’t clear, I fucking adore the way you captured Nico and Jason’s voices, AND Dionysus!!! Like, holy shit, that is Mr. D!!! Frankly, in my humble onion, you have a better grasp on their characters than Ricky boy does. Some of the best characterization I have read in a WHILE. I am so excited to get to read more, AND to be able to create from it!!!! <3 you’re the bomb diggity fr.)
#asks!#HEHEHEHEHEHHEHE my delightful giggling cannot be contained and the world must know#I AM DELIGHTED!!!!!!!!#and this gives me the perfect opportunity to research how to make different types of covers for books because I currently only know the#‘paste a fabric to it and call it a day’ method. this deserves higher honor#(and will help me with future projects!!!!)#EHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHE

// also idk if it's me just overthinking as always but I feel like lately being a Yu RPer or fan in general is not the best stuff hahahhhhh. I read lots of assumptions on Twitter where basically if you like Yu it means you only care about Mikayuu and nothing else and I'm like-
Yeah I love Yucihiro to bits and I'm hella passionate about him as a character, I totally understand his obsession for Mika too and everything else that makes his character who he is but I love Owari and every single character and I just want to enjoy the whole story and dynamics groans
#ooc#vivitalks#I have cookies and joy to give#it's a shame the fandom gets so divided but I guess that happens in a lot of fandoms anyways#I just want to scream about owari in general#I understand Kagami's writing can be uhh not the best sometimes#BUT#at the end of the day its his story and yes Yu and Mika are the main characters of this story damn#ONE DAY WE WILL GET MORE GUREN NOVELS#AND MIKAELA NOVELS TOOa#I'm very hopeful

I'm not sure if someone has made this connection already but Five responding "You know they both die at the end?" to Klaus' Thema and Louise reference as foreshadowing the fact that over the course of the season Five will watch his older self die in front of him and Klaus will be killed via his father's betrayal?? Zero notes absolutely stellar.

In the end, every fandom interpretation was correct, only all at once:
Eren did it to protect his friends
Eren did it for the island’s future
Eren did it to become the common enemy so his friends would be seen as heroes
Eren did it to stop the titan curse
Eren did it because he’s a psychopath
Eren did it for a woman
Eren did it because he was born this way
Eren did it to free Ymir
Eren did it because his memories told him so
Eren did it because he’s free
Eren did it because he is not free
Eren did it without knowing why
and so on and so forth.
The average reader might think this is how you create a multifaceted, deep, complex character.
But you know what you get when you mix all the abandoned drinks into one, at the end of a party? You don’t get a nice cocktail. If you drink that mix of previously perfectly tasty drinks, the only reaction is that you throw up.
#snk spoilers#vivitalks#snk 139#i should’ve expected isym didn’t have a good enough explanation for eren going down this road
