I know those editors must not be the most thorough but I just *have* to say that Ghostmaker's name is supposed to be written as "Minh Khoa" or "Minh-Khoa" guys...because it's Vietnamese and we've been running around trying to figure what the heck his last name was supposed to be from or how would his name make sense as a whole since he's supposed to be Singaporean with a Viet name and a Muslim last name.
Like I love him but DC please walk me through the process what's his specific background who are his parents and WHY this name.
SEAsian king btw no doubts.

For the ask game <3
A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.
C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.
H - What is your favorite source text for fandom stuff (e.g., TV shows, movies, books, anime, Western animation, etc.)?
J - Name a fandom you didn’t think about until you saw it all over Tumblr. (You don’t have to care about it or follow it; it just has to be something that Tumblr made you aware of.)
heyyy thank you for the ask teehee 🤭🤭 ik i literally reblogged this from your account LMAO so thank you, this was very considerate
i'm going to be answering most of these in regards to bully :)
these responses are gonna be a bit long so strap your boots on cowboys
A - ships i currently like
i am alwayssss thinking about bif/derby (berby 🥺) because they are my BOYS!! however, lately i was talking to my s/o about a post i made about unlikely prep ships (that apparently doesn't fucking exist because i couldn't find it again and had a mental breakdown over it), it reminded me of my love for bryce/vance!!!
when the bully discord was still a thing, me and my friends talked about unlikely ships and how u can basically ship... any two characters together. i don't remember how exactly we landed on bryce/vance, but it made sense to me and really settled into my heart lol. idk how to justify it other than wow! it just works. but if someone wants to know more, pls do feel free to send me an ask
other than that, i've really been into bryce/chad recently... they wrestle at night :)))
C - a ship i will never like
bro don't burn me at the stake for this, but there is one ship i just do not get behind, and anyone who knows me will know it but...
smopkins.
when i first played bully, which was two years ago, it was me revisiting it YEARS after i first discovered it as a young kid, and so i actually knew what shipping was lol. the first ship that came to mind for me was petey/gary, and while that is def popular in its own regard, it really surprised me to see how crazy people were for smopkins.
there's nothing wrong with the ship, i think a lot of art for it is cute (i have a good amount saved), and the fics certainly pack some emotion, but it just didn't click with me, and it never will lmao. and i think some people are too crazy about it, but that goes for ships in every fandom.
other than that, i don't really care for gord/vance. i did at some point, but i'm a jimmy/gord guy myself lol. it's still soooo so cute though.
H - favorite fandom source
well, obviously i like bully a whole lot LMAOO. there's a lot of freedom with the amount of side characters rockstar filled the game with, and they all have a surprising amount of personality put into them. there are endless situations to put all of them in with the small amount we've been given, and often this fandom just doesn't take advantage of it lol
other than bully though, i'm casually into borderlands and i used to have a haikyuu phase, so i check up on those two fandoms occasionally. i also LOVEEEEE the karate kid trilogy and watch the show that's out now (i have my gripes with it but whatever smh). i also like checking up on the rpg ib and one punch man every now and then. oooh and i can't forget detroit: become human.
J - fandom introduced to me through tumblr
uhhh none come to mind if i'm being honest haha. i don't really look at my feed unless i'm bored, so i'm only on tumblr to browse through tags for fandoms i know and post my own content.
i guess i didn't know the homestuck fandom was still active? LMAOOOO
thank you so much for these asks!!! i will make my way through the rest in my inbox <3

ACOTAR THINK PIECE: ELAIN ARCHERON, UNTOUCHABLE
*DISCLAIMER*
This will be a long post.
Please take the time to read this post in its entirety and truly reflect on the message I am trying to send before commenting. My goal is to use my background in Gender and Women’s Studies to deconstruct the comments I have seen on Tumblr and Twitter and bring awareness to the ACOTAR fandom.
The reason I am tagging “Elriel” in this post is to call attention to the arguments in the Elriel fandom that: weaponize Elain’s femalehood to shame real life people for their opinions about Elain’s character and her relationship with Lucien; victimize Elain’s character in fandom discussions; and coddle Elain’s character, which limits fandom discussions about her narrative development and prevents the ACOTAR fandom from holding Elain accountable for her actions and inactions in the same way that the fandom holds other characters accountable for their actions and inactions. It is for these reasons that I WILL NOT remove the “Elriel” tag from this post because all of the above points contribute to the toxic discourse surrounding Elain’s character.
I urge those who use these arguments to understand their implications, why they are problematic, regardless of intent, and reexamine their contributions to the ACOTAR fandom. I WILL NOT tolerate anyone who tries to twist my words and say I am attacking people and their personal shipping preferences. In fact, I AM CRITIQUING THE ARGUMENTS THEMSELVES NOT THE PEOPLE USING THE ARGUMENTS.
Also, I highly encourage the Elriel fandom to read this post because it addresses how the concept of choice as an argument enables arguments to exploit social justice and feminist languge in order to vilify Elucien shippers, among other problematic things.
Elain Archeron is one of the most polarizing characters in the ACOTAR fandom. Though opinions about Elain vary, arguments in the Elriel fandom cite society’s perception of traditional female characters in comparison to non-traditional female characters as the reason behind the hate, and this belief is used to provide an explanation as to why other characters in the series are favored over her. In the series, Elain is portrayed in a wholly positive light and this image carries over into the Elriel fandom, painting her character as a good and kind female who has been unfairly wronged and a victim of circumstances that were out of her control. When arguments in the Elriel fandom oppose other viewpoints in the fandom, they fall into one of three categories:
Category 1: Weaponize Elain’s femalehood to shame real life people for their opinions
Maybe people who hate Elain are just jealous of her in a weird way similar to when someone hates the pretty, nice, and charming girl in school just because she is too perfect
Disliking Elain is misogynistic
What happened to feminism? What happened to women supporting women? What happened to she can say no? All of that disappears the second you force Elain to be with Lucien
Elain antis are misogynistic
All Eluciens are Elain antis
Antis claiming they’re feminists when in reality they hate on Elain and Feyre but love Nesta
Elain antis are such sore losers. Y’all were that bunch of people who could not get over being rejected from hanging out with the cool kids so y’all are projecting your hatred towards pretty people now to get validation
I don’t get how Elain’s love for gardening equals boring for some people. I’m sorry your misogyny finds traditionally feminine activities boring
Why are you attacking a female? What did Elain do? Where are your feminist voices?
The fandom is misogynistic towards Elain
If people loved Elain they would ship Elriel
If you hate Elain it says a lot about your feelings toward women
If you hate Elain because she has no “development” then you must hate Azriel because otherwise you’re misogynistic
Eluciens are turned off by the idea of a woman that has the autonomy to reject a man for the simple reason that it is her choice
Eluciens are all about feminism and “it’s HER choice” until it comes down to females not wanting a male
Eluciens don’t respect Elain’s feelings when they ship her with someone that was part of her trauma and makes her feel uncomfortable
The way some Elucien shippers completely disregard how uncomfortable Elain is around Lucien is so hilariously not funny. Prioritizing being mates over Elain’s feelings is just regressive
It’s hard as a fan of Elain to see someone ship her with a person who makes her physically uncomfortable to be around. Wouldn’t you want both characters to be happy to be around each other
Imagine if SJM saw all the awful things her “stans” had to say about Elain
It’s true that we know comparatively little about her, but is she really boring or do you just not value stereotypically feminine traits?
So y’all are just gonna tell me you prefer Elucien over Elriel? Even though Lucien treats Elain as if she’s something that belongs to him? The only reason he wants to be with her is because she’s his mate, he doesn’t respect her, doesn’t treat her as his equal, even though that’s what mates should be? He doesn’t bother to look past what’s on the outside to see her for who she is. And Elain is obviously repulsed by the idea that she should belong to anyone or have no choice in who she can be with. Azriel is her friend and the only person who sees her quiet strength. He has so much faith in her, in her abilities; he’s the one who kept her company when no one else did, he’s the only one who bothered to see her for more than her brokenness. You’re going to tell me you still prefer Elucien over Elriel?
The more I see Gwynriels that ship Elucien out of their hate for Elain, the less I can understand Elain stans that ship Elucien. Pls Elain has made it very clear that she doesn’t want Lucien, why would you ship her with him? Do you hate her too? Smh
The real question would be, if you care and understand Elain why would you ship her with Lucien (where she canonically shrinks when he is near)?
People crying over Helion and Lucien’s mom not getting to be with each other and her being forced into a relationship she didn’t want, but also ship Elucien? Just say you hate Elain
When Elain’s book is out, Gwyn stans will look like clowns and I will laugh because they set her up by shipping her with Azriel just because they hate Elain. Watch them play the victims now because Elriels are clapping back the hate they’ve sent towards Elain
As romantic as wanting girl who is visibly uncomfortable around a guy who caused her trauma to end up with the said guy. Guess their standards for romance are in hell
Category 2: Victimize Elain’s character
Gwynriels only want Gwyn with Azriel because they despise Elain
Gwyn stans and Gwynriels are Elain antis
No one in the books dislike Elain, so why are there so many people who do?
Elain hasn’t done anything wrong or questionable to warrant the hate she gets
Not having Elain’s POV makes it easy for people to be swayed a certain way about her character if you already don’t relate to her in some way
It’s been years since this series came out and we haven’t gotten a lick of an Elain POV, but people still hate her for what? We don’t know her thoughts, dreams, or aspirations
We haven’t even had Elain’s perspective yet and people are passing these judgments off on her
Elain antis who say she’s boring are just cruel when she has obvious symptoms of PTSD like Feyre and Nesta
Gwyn is one of the most overhyped characters and that’s only because most people hate Elain and they couldn’t wait to find a random girl to ship Azriel with
Nesta was abusive to her sisters but Elain (who has only ever been kind) is painted as the villain
From the text we know that Elain is the epitome of feminine stereotypes (gentle, gardening, baking, non confrontational for the most part). Yet people still call her boring or deny that she has any interesting character traits?
You can’t love Nesta and hate Elain
People hate Elain because of internalized misogyny and lack of taste. All the girl does is tend to her garden and mind her business and they treat her worse than Tamlin
Does Gwyn deserve all this support? Of course yes! She is amazing! But where’s that support when Elain was in the same situation as she? Where’s that support for her right now? Why do they idolize Gwyn for her interactions with Azriel and hate Elain for having any interaction with him?
It’s not even a ship war anymore, they just hate Elain
People hate Elain for no reason
Some of y’all don’t like feminine traits and it shows
We know less about Eris and Helion but people don’t call them boring. Why would rejecting femininity make Elain more interesting?
Elain has had a lot forced upon her
The main reason I believe most people love Gwyn so much is to get Azriel away from Elain. It’s not a secret that Elain has been a widely hated character for years so suddenly we get a new female who has a minimal amount of interactions with Azriel and BOOM. New ship that once again doesn’t make sense (just like Azriel x Emerie after ACOFAS)
Elain hasn’t done something so terrible for her to get this hate. At this point some of you are just being misogynistic and you don’t want to accept it. Don’t call yourselves feminists and then say bs like this, it’s embarrassing. She’s pretty and everyone agreed to hate on her
Just a personal feeling, but I feel like a lot of the Elain hate stems from internalized misogyny. That to be a strong female lead, you need to pick up a sword and fight. That to be strong, you need to adapt traditionally masculine traits
Elain is feminine. She is beautiful. She loves to bake and garden. She is docile, quiet, observant, and a people-pleaser. All traditionally feminine traits. Yet for some reason, she’s like the worst in these people’s eyes?
I think also maybe a lot of people can’t relate to her femininity? That her being so beautiful and quiet doesn’t allow for the people who dislike her not to self-insert? Most of the hate stems from people not wanting Elain to be with Azriel. It’s mean, but maybe the people who hate Elain literally just can’t self-insert if they have a story and that’s why they’re vehemently against it?
Poor Elain. The Cauldron dealt her a bad deal. Upon emerging as Fae, she is immediately declared by Lucien as his mate, never mind that she was already engaged to a prick. Her love life is not good
It blows my mind how they really think that they can compare all the shit that Elain gets with some dumb jokes about Gwyn on Twitter (and yes, the “hate” towards her started mostly because Elriels are clapping back, it was bound to happen)
I would think of it as anti-feminist with Elain and Lucien because she has consistently stated that she does not want him so if she was forced to embrace the bond that would be taking away her right to have a choice but with Az she feels comfortable around so if they were mates then Elain would be happy and feel safe which again should be the priority for women to feel safe in their relationships with anything and to not be forced into any type of situation aka the mating bond in this
Category 3: Coddle Elain’s character
Elain has value the way she is, in all her domestic girly glory. Not every character has to be badass
We don’t speak of Elain’s flaws frequently because everyone else already speaks badly of her, mainly in an unfair way
There is definitely something deeper going on with Elain but by no means will she ever be evil or any less feminine. That goes against everything we already know about her
It’s ok to critique Elain because she needs growth but y’all keep forgetting the shit her and her sisters went through
The last “bad” thing Elain did in ACOTAR was not help Feyre when they were impoverished and I’m tired of people acting like she’s a terrible character when it was their father’s responsibility. It happened 4 books ago and Feyre has forgiven both Nesta and Elain
Elain’s character and the evil Elain theory are a great example of the trend where people only consider female characters interesting if they reject femininity
We don’t know enough to hate Elain
Many people want Elain to turn evil (which in my opinion seems to come from a place of internalized misogyny)
However we don’t tend to talk about her faults, at least not publicly, as that has been, and still is, done to death, and I--personally, at least--find it much more fun to theorise about potentially interesting aspects of the overall plot, than dwell on negatives
And ultimately, I would be shocked if Elain has a more karmically-charged story than Nesta, considering that Elain’s “wrongs” are so much less severe and bad than Nesta’s, and Elain has already apologized for them (or paid the price in other ways, like through what Graysen did)
I guess I also think Elain has suffered and been punished enough. I hope her story is about finding hope in terrible situations, and learning to love her new life, and choosing her own path after everything that has been done to her. I don’t think she needs to be punished anymore or face any additional trauma
Also, why is she being judged on her decisions as a human at all? Fae are monsters to humans! They enslaved them for thousands of years, and the Wall was erected to keep them out
Like I’m sorry, but think Elain would want to leave her ONLY FAMILY AND FRIENDS for the Spring Court where she has no one because--oh look, lots of flowers!--is the craziest thing I have ever heard
Her sisters are in the Night Court. Her nephew is in the Night Court. Her closest friends (Nuala and Cerridwen) are in the Night Court. Her love interest is in the Night Court. Her extended family is in the Night Court. Her home is in the Night Court
SJM isn’t going to keep two sisters together and split up the third. Especially not keep Feyre and Nesta together and separate Elain. They were either all going to end up in separate places, or together. Not 2 here and 1 there
Compared to the other female characters in the series, Elain is the only character whose femalehood is at the center of conversations; this is because arguments in the Elriel fandom fixate on it when discussing her character. While Elain, Feyre, Nesta, and Mor are all representations of white womanhood and white beauty, Elain epitomizes the most fragile version of white womanhood. It’s easy to blame society’s perception of traditional female characters in comparison to non-traditional female characters when it comes to the discourse surrounding Elain’s character because it: falls in line with the fixation on Elain’s femalehood to silence opposing viewpoints; is a simplistic explanation that fails to tackle the underlying issues with Elain as a character, the same issues that are downplayed in-universe; absolves Elain of her wrongdoings; prevents the ACOTAR fandom from holding Elain accountable for her actions and inactions within the series; and diminishes the impact Elain’s actions and inactions have on those around her. It’s not that Elain is hated in the fandom because she’s a traditional female character; it’s the fact that arguments in the Elriel fandom deflect a critical analysis of Elain’s character because she’s a traditional female character who embodies the ideal white woman in need of protection. White fans and white-aligned fans of color, especially white women, have a tendency to vehemently defend, gatekeep, and coddle white female characters in fandom; this makes it difficult for other fans to engage in critical discussions about these white female characters because they’re viewed as flawless and all around perfect characters despite evidence to the contrary. Since Elain is viewed positively by the other characters in the series, it has rendered her character untouchable to any perceived slight or criticism in fandom discussions because those negative opinions challenge what has been said about her character thus far. And as a result, her character has been placed on a pedestal and implicitly hailed as the epitome of white womanhood; and when she’s criticized, it’s seen as a direct attack against white womanhood. Arguments in the Elriel fandom: exploit feminist language and perpetuate white feminist tactics under the guise of defending Elain’s character; center Elain in conversations about female oppression in the ACOTAR world and uphold white feminist ideologies in their critique of ACOTAR’s patriarchal society; and use the fragile white woman narrative to victimize Elain in Lucien’s presence, playing into racial biases that are associated with white supremacy’s defense of white womanhood.
Feminism is a social movement that seeks to promote equality and equity to all genders, and feminists work toward eradicating gender disparities on a macro-level, in addition to challenging gender biases on a micro-level. As feminism became more mainstream, a flat and oversimplified version of feminism emerged: mainstream feminism. The mainstream feminist movement is meant to represent all women, but rarely does it center conversations around issues that concern most women. The problem with mainstream feminism is that it’s just a popularized version of white feminism. White feminism has relied extensively on an individualized understanding of women’s oppression, exclusively from the lens of privileged white women. White feminism only focuses on the oppression experienced by white, able-bodied, affluent, educated, cishet women; and it views gender as the key mode of privileged white women’s oppression, isolated from the privileges granted by their other social identities. White women can be and are oppressed under the patriarchy but only because they are women; their identity as women does not exempt them from the privileges granted by their whiteness. The term white feminist does not mean any feminist who is white, but refers to feminists who prioritize the concerns of privileged white women as though they are representative of all women. However, the term is not exclusive to white people. Because white feminism is so pervasive, people of other racial and ethnic backgrounds often buy into white feminism, believing that if they work hard enough, they may be able to reap its rewards.
Just like white feminism, mainstream feminism only recognizes the identity of being a woman, assumes that all women share common experiences of gender oppression, fails to address other social identities in relation to overlapping systems of oppression, and disregards privilege in relation to various social identities. Just like white feminism, mainstream feminism is palatable because it doesn’t seek to challenge the systems in place, instead its goal is to succeed within them. Essentially, mainstream feminism and white feminism are extensions of performative feminism. Performative feminism is a type of performative activism that’s used to describe feminist views that are surface level and solely for the benefit of one type of person. It’s a pretense which often has nothing to do with genuine activism. Arguments in the Elriel fandom normalize and promote performative feminism because the topic of feminism is only referenced when discussing Elain. This indicates that these arguments are engaging in disingenuous discourse to push a personal agenda within the ACOTAR fandom, and it becomes more apparent when they use white feminist tactics to shut down opposing viewpoints:
White feminists weaponize and exploit feminist language to silence the opinions of other women, especially when they’re called out for their problematic behaviors
White feminists use the phrase “Women supporting women” to defend other white feminists who exhibit problematic behaviors instead of holding them accountable 
White feminists weaponize phrases like “Women supporting women” and “You just hate women” to attack other women who disagree with them on any given topic
White feminists use phrases like “All women face challenges” and “Stop pitting women against each other” to sidestep conversations about privilege
White feminists divert conversations away from privilege and towards the Trauma Olympics to equate their struggles to the oppression of marginalized people 
White feminists skirt around the realities of other forms of oppression and discrimination, downplaying the experiences of marginalized people
White feminists diminish or ignore the ways in which gender oppression affects other marginalized people
White feminists paint those they harmed as aggressive, mean, or divisive when confronted with the ways they have harmed a marginalized group
White feminists deflect criticism by focusing on the anger or emotions being expressed rather than the issue that is being discussed, invalidating the concerns of marginalized people
White feminists speak over marginalized voices in an attempt to sound “woke”
White feminists get defensive and insist there’s no way they could be a part of the problem because of what they’ve done to help marginalized groups already 
White feminists say they don’t see color in an attempt to obscure racial issues that need to be addressed
White feminists center and victimize themselves in conversations about racism, which derails necessary conversations from taking place
White feminists who are white weaponize the intersectionality of their race and gender to avoid accountability
Feminism is not meant to be approached from an individualistic perspective nor is it only about addressing the experiences of privileged white women, it involves addressing the intersections of race, class, gender, sexuality, (dis)ability, and other social identities as well; and it involves addressing how these social identities relate to privilege. Moreover, feminism is not about women upholding complete loyalty to other women because of a shared gender identity, and to claim that it does implies that women should be held to different emotional standards than men. If men are able to dislike and criticize other individual men, real or fictional, without their characters being compromised, why aren’t women granted that same privilege?
It’s clear that SJM set up the ACOTAR world to mirror a patriarchal society, and that the imbalance of power between males and females stems from sexism. Arguments in the Elriel fandom analyze the ACOTAR world through a feminist lens to show how ACOTAR’s patriarchal society, to which the mating bond is innately tied, contributes to female oppression and limits their agency. When choice and free will are emphasized as part of Elain’s arc, they imply that Elain, through the mating bond, experiences female oppression under ACOTAR’s patriarchal society because of her identity as a female with that identity being the focal point of her oppression in the world. Elain is one of the most privileged characters in the ACOTAR world: she’s High Fae; she’s the sister of the High Lord and High Lady of the Night Court, which gives her access to wealth and political influence because of that connection; she’s able-bodied; she was magically blessed by the Cauldron; and she lives in Velaris, a place that grants females autonomy and power because of the beliefs of Rhysand and Feyre. Arguments in the Elriel fandom trivialize female oppression in the ACOTAR world because they disregard the fact that Elain’s privileges prevent her from experiencing female oppression in the same way that other marginalized females in the world do. The mating bond being one such example because those around Elain are not forcing the bond on her, instead they’re allowing Elain to reach a decision about the bond for herself; a privilege that other marginalized females in the world probably wouldn’t have. Just because Elain has endured hardships in her life and is a female in a patriarchal society, they do not erase the privileges she holds within the ACOTAR world. The failure to include Elain’s privileges in discussions about Elain being a female in a patriarchal society feeds into white feminist ideologies because white feminism operates from a very narrow perspective; it doesn’t take other intersecting identities into account when it examines gender oppression, leaving no room for discussions about privilege (or lack thereof) in relation to those intersecting identities. When discussing oppression in hierarchical societies, it’s imperative that privilege is also included in the conversation because privilege and oppression are not mutually exclusive; they equally affect the ways in which people navigate those societies through their social identities.
Rather than attributing Elain’s uncomfortability to her new life as a Fae female or the mating bond itself and her trauma to the Cauldron, the King of Hybern, or Ianthe, they’re placed on Lucien to cast his character in a negative light. Moreover, fandom discussions portray Lucien as a possessive character to further emphasize Elain’s discomfort despite the inaccuracy of this characterization in canon. Arguments in the Elriel fandom play into racial biases when it comes to Lucien (a male character of color) because they mischaracterize his character in order to victimize Elain (a white female character), placing her character in the role of the white damsel in distress. In Western society, the concept of womanhood has been conceptualized from a Eurocentric perspective with femininity and feminine attributes favoring white women. It’s the idea that a certain type of femininity is only inherent to white women as they are seen as the embodiment of an ideal womanhood. White womanhood has been a symbol of innocence and purity, and white women have been viewed as fragile beings in need of protection. The reason white womanhood functions within white supremacy is because it’s the same idea that has motivated white men to kill and beat black and brown men. The so-called protection of white women has been used as a justification for the horrific violence committed by white men because black and brown men were stereotyped as aggressive and seen as a threat to the virtue of white women. The white damsel in distress trope considered white women as worthy of protection because of their perceived innocence and purity; women of color were not granted that same treatment because they did not fit into the ideal image of womanhood. Over the years, this trope became a means for white women to exercise limited power in a patriarchal society with white women weaponizing their status as the damsel much to the detriment of black and brown men. It’s through the white damsel in distress trope that white supremacy sustains its dominance in Western society. The misrepresentation of characters of color in fandom, the dismissal of their importance to the overall story, and using them as tools in arguments centered around white characters are the foundation of fandom racism; they’re examples of how racism moves silently in fandom spaces. Instead of examining their behavior and taking constructive criticism from fans of color, white fans will often double down on their bigotry and center their uncomfortability in the conversation when confronted with their complicity in fandom racism. White fans expect fans of color to swallow fandom racism in its many forms in order to not ruin the experience of fandom, dismissing the fact that racism is prevalent in nearly every aspect of society. This mentality ensures that no one is held accountable for the harm they caused and alienates fans of color in fandom spaces.
To reiterate what I mentioned in my first think piece: terms like “oppression”, “the right to choose”, “feminist”, “feminism”, “anti-feminist”, “anti-feminism”, “internalized misogyny”, “misogyny”, “misogynist”, “sexist”, “sexism”, “racist”, “racism”, “classist”, “classism”, “discrimination”, and “patriarchy” are all used in specific ways to draw attention to the plight of marginalized people and challenge those who deny the existence of systems of oppression. Yet these words and their meanings can be twisted to attack, exclude, and invalidate people with differing opinions on any given topic. When social justice and feminist terms are thrown around antagonistically and carelessly to push a personal agenda, it becomes clear that these terms are being used to engage in disingenuous discourse and pursue personal validation rather than being used out of any deep-seated conviction to dismantle systemic oppression. Being an ally, activist, or feminist is not an identity, it’s a practice. It requires: ongoing self-reflection; holding ourselves accountable; listening to marginalized people; educating ourselves; dismantling implicit biases; challenging those around us who are exhibiting problematic behaviors; and action behind our words.
It’s important to be aware of the language that is used within the fandom when defending or critiquing characters and ships. It’s also important to question how an argument is framed and why it’s framed the way that it is to critically examine the intent behind that argument: is it used as a tool to push a personal agenda that reinforces problematic behaviors, or is it used as an opportunity to share, learn, enlighten, and educate?

Tumblr media
Tumblr thought it would be hilarious to delete all my work and not let me answer requests :').
YES I SHALL WRITE THE PLATONIC ANGRY PARENTS-
And thank you-I woke up and was talking to my friend in the morning and my brain just: jojo villain yandere dads. Mudad mudad mudad mudad anger.
Anyways, here they are- Do these even count as headcanons???? I dunno-
Dio, Part 1
Vampire form of course.
First thing first, We all know he'd be a great dad. Protective already, But make him a yandere platonic father? Oh boy, Trust me, You'd be spoiled and treated like royalty.
Now, I'm gonna say in this scenario you were on of his victims child. I'll say you'll be around 5 to eight.
Somehow you managed to catch his eye, Is it because your parent was just as bad as his? You reminded him of his mother? Or maybe you resemble him, and have three moles on your ear. Or, perhaps, A younger joestar? Either way, You somehow had him feeling like a father, and, according to one of my friends, Araki had said DIO would treat his children like they were royalty, And they would be so spoiled.
So, Mudad would end up taking you in, kidnapping, whichever honestly. He'd be holding you like a loving pet owner would, if you got scared, he'd probably be confused. Honestly he'd have you turned into a vampire quickly, as he knew he wouldn't be able to have children as a Vampire.
Truthfully, I think you'd end up never noticing how he'd occasionally pull you closer, or how he'd glare at anyone your age or older going near you. Or how he'd give you some strict rules, Like no dating anyone. E v e r. And why would you ever want to hurt your papa like that?! You wouldn't want to do that, right?! Of course you wouldn't! Dio knew you'd never betray him like that!!
Truth be told, he'd guilt you if you tried to go against his words. But punishments? No no, He'd never actually purposefully hurt you, Unlike his love interest, he'd NEVER want to cause you pain ever. He'd hate himself and wouldn't forgive himself for years. Centuries. Infact, he'd beg for your forgiveness.
The Pillarmen
And satannnaaaaa
First of all, You aren't a pillarchild. You'd most likely be some kind of god, vampire, or a young hamon learner. Or even related to the Joestars or Ceasar.
So, Let's say you're immortal who can walk in the sun. We all know you'd be the joestar side, Right? So, That means you'd end up hating or feeling pity for the pillarmen. First, You'd probably end up trying to make Santana hally when he awakens. Unlike with Joseph, He'd probably know not to attempt to attack you. Let's say you have symbols like Dio Over heaven, We all know how that would work.
You'd end up as a being worshipped by them, probably kidnapped after they destroy the Joestars.
Let's say they defeated Joseph and the others, and you were still a deity, You'd most likely be weaker then them in this scenario. They'd probably treat you like a kitten at first, like a baby before they all felt a connection. As if you were a child of their own, so they'd give you rules. And we all know how rules go with yanderes.
Let's say uh- you fell for a mortal.
"No. No."
[Crush name has fallen from a high place.]
"DADS WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUU-"
"NO CUSSING IN THIS CHRISTIAN MINECRAFT SERVER!"
or something like that :')
Honestly, You'd have bird dad, and a bunch of other dads. Santana would honestly be like the cool big brother honestly. You'd probably want horns too so-
They would totally buy you halloween horns to put on your head so you'd be happy baby
Now, Hamon user? They'd probably find you like a cute animal at first, probably going easy on you like it was a game of tag. Soon, they'd realize how weak and fragile you are, After all, You are just starting hamon. They'd probably kidnap you to spite Joseph and his side at first, before... Well, You didn't expect to become a vampire and treated like royalty when all you've been treated like is uh... Considering Lisalisa is your coach, I'd say you'd be happy if it was someone else doing this for you.
Josephs sibling? WOAH Joseph, When did you get a cute sibling? Pfft, Not your sibling anymore, They just adopted your ex sibling nerd.
But, All jokes aside, They'd probably be surprised that you were more mature then your brother, and...you sorta resemble a certain Coach... Oh, Humans all look the same, haha.
They'd probably kidnap you infront of Joseph just to make him feel guilt and rage, After all, Why not get their prized treasure and make Joseph angry? They'd give you more rules, until Joseph was gone, of course.
And, sadly, Not even you crying would stop them from making you into a vampire infront of your big brother, breaking both of your hearts.
Don't worry you got ice cream later smh.
Ceasars sibling? Mini pancake? Haha, They'd kidnap you as soon as they felt parent like tendencies. No denying them, infact, they'd make sure you saw ceasar get defeated by the ro ck. But don't worry! You have new parents and a brother-! Haha, Poor you.
Part 3 DIO AKA mudad!
Honest to god you'd probably have to be a stand user with a weak or strong stand, or, you were one of his kids he had with a lucky woman who survived and got a naked polaroid of him as a 'wow you lived! Congrats, now go have my kid lmao' gift. Or, Maybe you were a normal kid who was kind to him, even if he,,,,  did some questionable murder infront of you. And maybe you were a young
Now, Let's say you were a strong stand user. He'd end up wanting to use a flesh bud until he realized... He never had a kid, that he knows of, and decided to raise you! At first he'd be upset you had a strong stand like your mudad, but realized you could protect yourself from those dreadful joestars! Congrats, You became a Brando! :) How unlucky, Considering this DIO would probably force vampire masks onto you, or even using fleshbuds as a threat. Either way, You'll always be papas baby!
Yoshikage kira.
Like I said in my first post of this, He'd want to have a nice average life. You having a stand wouldn't be a problem, Since he'd probably convince you Josuke and the others are awful and rude.
Josukes sibling? Well, He'd end up telling you he can help your brother with his murder issue if you come with him. You don't exactly have a choice since Killer queen would easily overpower you if you had disagreed. You'd end up being a normal and peaceful child before long, Infact, He'd have to pretend he had adopted you behind his 'wifes' back.
Hayotos friend he never talks about? Congrats, You are now stuck with a crazy and loving father! And a mother, I suppose. And you get your best friend as a brother! You'd never be able to leave, how sad. But, You'd have your new mom and your dad to talk to-! And killer queen cuddle time.
Now, Let's say you were his own kid. Wowzers! You think its normal for your father to bring women hands home, after all, You are pretty young and your father told you most adults do this. Ah. How enjoyable.
Doppio/Diavolo
Oh dear. You poor child.
Either you were related to trish, and he somehow felt like you wouldn't be a problem before they felt more of a father love towards you, Most likely somehow getting rif of the traitors and your big sister.
"Where's big sister?"
"Don't worry about her, She's spending time with your mother."
Smh quit LIEING you jERK!
But seriously, Doppio would be like the fun mom asking you if you'd like bake cupcakes in his spare time! Read you bed time stories and whatnot! Diavolo would be awkward and "wanna play baseball or whatever kids like to do these days?" Awkward dad alert.
"My kid is fine!"
The kid they kidnapped/raised:
Casually trying to beat another kid with a baseball.❤💚💛
Honestly they'd insult everyone elses kids while here their kid is, casually scared of baseball.
Pucci
Papa priest! We all know he'd adopt you! I head canon him as gay, considering DIO and him were totally a thing.
So, He'd probably have you study Lord DIO bibles, and casually have you hate Jolyne. Probably even give you a stand, And even show you that DIO is the best! Worship! Protect yourself and all that!
Jotaro would probably scare you,  so I can see you holding onto Pucci while Jotaro appears anytime, so pucci would infact love it when you snuggle onto him lime a cute kitten. Hell, you even Sneeze like a kitten!
Honestly You'd be kept under watch 24/7, but you'd think it was normal, after all, Your father would mever do something so awful like Those Joestars claim...right?
Diego
Oh wow- dino dad :)
Let's say you were a big fan of his, Then, Well,You wouldn't mind having him as a dad, Now would you? He is your idol, Right? Yeah. Yeah!
He'd probably carry you around upside down, Hot pants just questioning his sanity as he drops you a million times. Hot pants would probably end up carrying you most of the time.
Mama hot pants and father Diego. Y es.
And, Let's say you were traveling with Johnny. Congrats. You've put yourself in a even worse situation considering Diego would become worried and paranoid over those two idiots hurting you! And he hates the idea of his baby boy/girl/child being hurt by barbarians!!!
Even though he'd probably hurt you on accident if I'm gonna be honest.
Kidnapping isn't a very easy job, so of course he had to knock you out! What was he supposed to do?! Ask you to come stay with him forever?! No! Maybe! HuawhuKaia-
Honestly not too many rules, just don't leave his side ever! Except when going to the bathroom. You'll be tied to his horse. No whining >:(.
Funny Valentine
Honestly what did you think he was going to do? Pick some random child? No no, He'd choose the PERFECT child! You were so lucky! Wow! The daughter of the mos powerful man ever! Lucky you, Right?
No. You don't get alone time unless it's you sleeping or bathing. You wear what he wants, and no.
Dating not allowed. Bad. No no no no no.
"No. No dating. Your lips will fall off."
"but mommys lips didn't-"
"Your face will melt off."
Basically you'd be bossed around and treated like royalty, as long as you listen to you dad!
Honestly I don't know if this is headcanons, if if it isn't feel free to scream at me in the comments-
AND I AM SO SORRY ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO ACTUALLY ANSWER, SO I HOPE YOU SEE THIS AND ARE ABLE TO ENJOY IT??? I GUESS???

Years and years later, and the S/C gaslighting game goes on...
I wrote the post below in January 2018, more than 2 years ago, (I’ve been in the shipper community since 2015 during S1). I ended up rereading it after a new follower @westwind49 , left a comment on the post, saying this:  
“ Thank you. I’ve been feeling like I’m crazy thinking they’re together! I’ve always thought there was more to their story but was feeling bad that maybe I was delusional! So much theatrics! Thanks for clearing the air!❤️”
Thank you, @westwind49 , for allowing me to revisit my not-so-distant self and realize that some of us are still living a “Groundhog Day” of sorts.The most shocking thing about the  post below is that EVERYTHING in it could still be said today. We are still in the same position, with no absolute verification/affirmation of any truth to either S or C’s true reality. They are still playing games, hiding things, lying, and gaslighting. C has still never used “my husband T” or even “my fiance T” together in the same sentence, showed a pic on IG of her together with her “loved one,” or even shown a wedding photo, because don’t you know that wedding photos are just for the bride, her husband, and their family? (That’s C redefining her wedding as a “private” affair, even though her co-worker and family left public breadcrumbs all over the place, and her wedding was included in Vanity Fair as one of the year’s “biggest” weddings!). S would have you believe, even though he won’t post a pic with her, that he’s spending pandemic lockdown in Hawail with a former Playboy bunny. If S and C are in fact with these other people, then why won’t they post pics with them, name them as their SOs, and add some truth to their lives instead of innuendo and gaslighting? It’s just unfathomable to me that two people can spend this much time and energy STILL either living a lie, hiding the truth, or simply implying a certain truth but offering no concrete confirmation of it as an absolute reality.
Here is my January 2018 post:
On sancerre, sushi and Netflix chillin’...
As a PR professional, I am smh at this whole sc fiasco. If s and c feel that no one has a right to peer into their private lives, that’s their choice, even though it’s very hard to achieve if acting is your chosen vocation and you aspire to be a well-known one. However, in order to successfully navigate and reinforce this ‘’hands-off my private life” position, from the outset, and/or especially when things appeared to be getting out of control with perceptions, sc/their agents should have hired sm pr professionals to take over their public actor accounts (and they should have established private accounts to talk/post to each other and their inner circles). With sm pr professionals manning their accounts, a strategy/tactics would have been agreed upon and the public accounts could have been fun but strictly professional promotional banter and understood by fans to be as such. And they would have been much more successful in creating consistent, ongoing messaging and PR for the stars they represented and their shows/movies/appearances. At public appearances, from the beginning, sc should have been less touchy, more professional, and steered clear of all the sexual innuendo (like c does with tobias, with whom she also had an on-screen relationship/chemistry). Sc could have communicated in a fun way at appearances that they were indeed “goofy best friends” but “we’re not dating each other,” and reinforced it at each appearance thru restating the same words and following through with their actions. If c was in a relationship most of this time, she could have curtly mentioned, “I have an SO, Tony McGill, but we’re very private people together so please respect our privacy.” I guarantee you, this invasion of privacy would not have happened bc no one (except maybe stalker Purv) would have shipped s and t. It also would have explained t’s presence at public appearances and their standoffishness (”you know, we’re private people so no public PDA”).The shipper world would have then been focused on just the jc characters and OL, with just a tiny, inert contingent who wanted to ship sc regardless of the facts. The anti-contingent and it’s resultant trolling, hatred and invasion of privacy by both anti’s and sc shippers to prove the are they/aren’t they would have never arisen. Sc could have lived their private lives with dignity and privacy, and they wouldn’t have had to compromise their integrity (or been accused of doing so), and all the gaslighting and blaming an entire loyal segment of fans of being “delusional” and “crazy” wouldn’t have occurred. Even if, as some claim, s is in fact gay, as a professional actress, it wasn’t c’s job to beard for him, especially if she is a “stand in your own power” type of woman (as she appears to be) who wanted to maintain her integrity, privacy, and grow her acting career. Any agent worth their salt would have advised c that bearding and/or misleading fans that you were in a romantic relat with your co-star when you weren’t would be problematic for her. And again, if c really is a woman who stands in her power, she/her agent should have renegotiated any bearding or “overinflate your chemistry with your non-SO co-star” contractual terms with tptb once c was a strongly-established, multiple award-nominated star of  OL, which happened around early 2016. C had that kind of power by then. If the IFH was in fact held to accomplish this, c and s failed miserably at following through by falling back into their sexual-innuendo-laden sm banter and pics of personal time spent together with no SOs in sight (other than at industry events).Many co-stars have shown they can be friendly friends and cutesy together at appearances but still avoid being perceived as having something off-screen. Now I’m sticking around the tumblr shipper fandom to see how this ends bc I still think sc are hiding something. Natural curiosity and anger at being called “delusional,” when I know I’m not, pushes me to find out why this secret is so big that they’ve had to gaslight and abuse so many of their #bestfansever. You can find me on shore with my sancerre and sushi, Netflix and chillin’ and watching the trainwreck that is the sc fandom.
Thank you to (past and present shippers.were named here in the original post). They don’t know what they have/had in you guys … all of us saw the same thing and no, we weren’t delusional. I hope you all stay or at least keep your blogs active for a historical record of the gaslighting and decimation of a loyal fandom.

Desires #10
Pairing: Loki x reader
Summary:  Vanaheim needs allies and since you are the eldest daughter of its king, you are a victim of arranged marriage with one of Odin’s sons - Loki.
Chapter warnings: smut, language, fluff, a bit of angst, bad parenting 
Chapter word count: 1735
A/N: does anyone know why tumblr is hating me again and this time is not allowing me to add more tags? am i not worthy to appear on search results or what?? the same happens every time i try to post anything bucky related smh
Tumblr media
You finally slept well, wrapped in Loki’s arms, his warm breath surrounded your neck. He was tired, too, even though he tried not to show it. You raised your head and kissed the tip of his nose, receiving a wrinkle of it when he yawned.
“Hello, dear,” he whispered, softly kissing your lips.
You didn’t answer, just deepened the kiss and dived your fingers into his messy hair. He smiled on your lips and lazily rolled up your nightgown, groaning at the feeling of your soft skin under his fingertips. You pressed your chest onto his, begging for a touch you missed so much. His hand travelled up and squeezed one of your buttocks, releasing a moan that was hidden deep inside your throat.
The door swung open and you had to force yourself not to shut them back with your magic. Loki sighed and moved away slightly.
“What is it-“
“Y/N, I need your help!” Thor’s cry filled the room and you felt electricity sparkle in the air.
Marigold started crying and if your sight could kill, Thor would’ve already been full rigor mortis. Loki got up and walked to the cradle.
“What do you want?” You asked and watched your husband gently take the baby in his arms. You loved that sight.
“Jane… Jane of Earth is ill. You need to help her.” Your brother came closer, visibly worried.
“And why do you think I could?” You frowned.
“You are a healer.”
“I can only heal myself.”
He helplessly looked at you for a second.
“Did you take her to our healers before you decided to harass my wife?” Loki came closer, eyeing his brother.
“They don’t know what it is. The thing inside of her keeps attacking everyone it finds a threat. It’s red and-“
“Ether,” you sighed and got up. “It’s incredibly dangerous, you should get rid of her.”
“I can’t just get rid of her!”
“I don’t want that thing anywhere near my child!” You shouted and clenched your fists, objects around you shook a little. A vase from the table fell on the floor.
A horn sounded in the palace, Loki hugged Marigold a little tighter.
“What’s going on?”
Thor run from your bedroom to the corridor.
“Fights! I need to go to Jane!”
You followed his steps. A bunch of violent criminals was attacking everyone in their grasp, and the sight of smashed skulls on the floor made you nauseous. You quickly shut the door closed before they could see you.
Loki was already dressed in his armour and helmet thanks to his magic, ready to fight. You didn’t want him to. You were so horribly afraid of losing him, you couldn’t let him go.
You shook your head.
“Don’t.”
“Love-“
“I don’t allow it!” You cried and came to him. “You have too much to lose.” You looked at the baby in his arms, at her big, blue eyes matching her skin.
He gently kissed your lips, passing Marigold to you.
“That’s why I need to fight. For you.” He pulled you to himself, his cheek pressed onto your head. “I’ll be fine. I’m a great fighter.”
You smiled sadly. Of course he was, you never doubted it, but it was irrelevant.
“Stay with me. Thor will take care of it all,” you asked, the baby started crying again. “I’m a terrible parent, you are so much better. I can’t lose you, I won’t handle it myself.”
He laughed.
“Why are you having such nasty thoughts, wife? I’ll be safe and sound before you even notice I was gone. I promise.” He kissed you again. “Just wait for me.”
You let him go. He was right. The fights were not so bad, not for the God of Mischief. You were overreacting, hormones were doing their thing and you were panicking without a proper reason.
*
You waited for two days. Patiently. More stressed with each minute.
When the door swung open you were on the edge of a heart attack. He came home, safe and-
It was Thor. He wasn’t smiling, wasn’t happy or lively as always. Your heart was racing again.
“Y/N-“
“Where is he?” You managed to stutter, afraid to find out the answer.
“He was brave.”
You walked a few crooked steps closer to Thor. Marigold was crying but you didn’t hear properly.
“Where is he?” You forgot how to breathe.
“He… He’s gone.” He couldn’t look at you, but your eyes were locked on him. On his weak figure. “He’s dead, sister.”
You shook your head.
“That’s not true. That’s not true!” A mirror broke. “I’m sure he’s alive and well, he promised me-“
“I saw it, Y/N,” he interrupted your talking silently. “I saw him… He’s gone.”
He was so heartbroken, so pale and sad…
Loki was dead.
The love of your life was dead and you never even told him you loved him.
You took a deep breath to say something, but no words escaped your lips.
Your heart was racing, you didn’t breathe, every process your body was doing stopped. A tear flew down your cheek and the last thing you heard before blacking out was Marigold’s cry.
*
When you fluttered your eyes opened for just a mere second you thought you heard Loki’s voice, but then you remembered everything. Loki was dead. Killed by the night elves.
You wanted to cry and vomit at the same time.
“Quite reckless of you to pass out and leave her alone.”
You slowly sat up.
Impossible.
Your heart stopped when you turned and saw Loki lulling Marigold in his arms. Were you dead, too?
He looked at you and smirked, putting her back to her cradle.
“Just don’t be too loud screaming at me, they all think I’m dead and I want it to stay this way.”
Oh, you weren’t dead. But you knew who soon would be.
You clenched your teeth, got up so quickly you didn’t know you could move that fast and slapped Loki so hard you almost couldn’t feel your hand.
“You fucking psycho! Are you out of your mind?! What the fuck were you thinking?!” You kept hitting his chest, tears or anger and relief were dropping on the floor. “I fucking hate you!”
He grabbed your wrists and pulled you to himself, locking you in a tight hug.
“Shush, now.” He kissed your hair and you slowly relaxed, but still couldn’t stop crying. “I’m sorry, love. I’m sorry.”
“Fuck your apologies…” You muttered, but wrapped your arms around his waist and held him close.
“Such rude language you’re using,” he laughed. “I missed you.”
“You’re going to wish you stayed dead.”
He moved away and took your face in his hands.
“Never. I’d rather have the worst, the rudest life with you and our horribly blue daughter.”
“Gods, you are so awful. I can’t believe I love you-“
You widened your eyes. You never said it before and weren’t sure how he would react. It just slipped down your tongue, so naturally.
“I love you, too.” He kissed you gently.
You smiled and happily gave the kiss back, passionately and hard. You thought you lost him, and yet here he was, in your arms. Just as he promised.
His tongue slipped inside your mouth and you were more than glad to give up the fight for dominance. You lost your fingers in his wavy hair, eager for more. He lifted you up and threw you on the bed. His lips found their way to your cheek, left small kisses along your jawline, he bit your earlobe and you curled your toes at the feeling.
“I need you…” he whispered in a husky voice. “I need you all around my cock, begging me to let you come…” He kissed your neck and licked a mark he left there a few days earlier. You were already wet for him, your fingers tried to clumsily untie his armour. “To feel your taste spilled on my tongue.” He reached for the ribbons tying your corset. “To have you whole.”
Your clothes were gone, his needy lips were stealing kisses from you, his hand parted your legs. He lowered himself and kissed your inner thighs, one of his hands travelled up to your breast and pinched your nipple, making you squirm.
“Shush, love, you need to be quiet.” He bit your skin. “Remember, no one knows I’m here.”
You only managed to nod and suddenly his tongue was licking a stripe through your folds. You had to bit your lip not to moan, he caressed your clit, his finger was inside of you. Oh, how you missed that. He was watching you closely, groaned and lifted himself up.
“I can’t do it…” He kissed you sloppily. “I have to have you.”
You wrapped your arms and legs around him and brought him much, much closer.
“Then come and get me.”
With one swift move he was inside of you, shushing your moans with his lips. His pace was torture at first, slow and delicate, but with each thrust was quicker, harder and deeper. It was all you could wish for – to have him buried deep inside, to claim you his, take what you both deserved.
He lifted your leg higher to reach a better angle and this time he had to cover your lips with his hand to mutter your moan. His face was hidden in the crook of your neck, he was inhaling your scent, a scent of home, safety and love.
Your walls clenched around him tighter when you were just two steps away from sweet ecstasy, he fastened his pace and pumped you fiercely into the mattress. Spasms of pleasure took over your body, hand on your lips squeezed your face harder when he reached his top as well, you could swear you saw stars and lightning when he came, spilling his seed inside of you, that addicting warmth adding more to your orgasm.
He was still inside when his thumb caressed your lower lip and he kissed you gently.
“There is one more thing you need to know…” He gasped.
“What is it?” You kissed his neck, ready for more, and more, and for everything he could give you that night.
“I enchanted Odin and locked him in a retirement home. And I am shapeshifting into him, so basically everyone thinks I am Odin.”
“You what?!”

yeah i’m one of those people who go into the anti tag...whyyy?? *shrugs* i’m just personal i guess...(but seriously is there a rule saying you aren’t allowed in an anti tag??).. i see alottt of Iris west hate ovi and West Allen hate ovi again...sometimes i find it funny...like i’m usually cracking up over these posts..dyinggg...one person was all like “ Candice talks so much about “females like Iris having agency.” What the actual fuck?! How does Iris have any independence? It’s a joke. I feel disappointed and let down by the writers each time they show Iris in any scene, Time to finally get rid of her”. (lol but seriously did this make any sense?) okayyy just a thought but might be one of the main reasons she always talks about women having agency bud... Most times I feel pity though...because I don’t know what its like to watch a show and hate the female lead so much but yet keep watching the show..my advice would be to stop...most posts are about the writers ruining the show with all this “West Allen stuff”....I hate WA I can’t stand Iris..WA scenes are awful...look friends...just stop..why put yourself through all that..we know from the comic con interviews and panel that Iris isn’t going anywhere..the writers will keep at WA...chances are they will be married by the end of S4...look don’t put yourselves through all that happiness...stop..purpose in your heart to not watch S4...hmmm sometimes in the anti tag i just..smh..start talking to myself like a crazy person...i swear if i see one more person’s entire argument for hating WA is that...”they have no chemistry” I’m gonna write a really long thingy on tumblr about ....oh wait...anyways...guys...for the last time CHEMISTRY IS SUBJECTIVE.... is that really your entire point..really...*shakes head* sit down. oh and one of my favorites. “I miss the original team flash” [types into google translate] -(i)I miss when Iris had less scenes and was never at star labs...(ii)...I miss Barry and Caitlin standing next to each other and occasionally exchanging words while Cisco is blurred out in the background ..ohhh...sooo yeah i have no idea where i was going with this...it started out with me being upset about the chemistry thing and turned into this...i get you not liking them together...(idk how on Earth that’s possible but *shrugs*) but using chemistry...really...reallyyyy...stappp...just..stap.

Eleven questions, times 4
I was tagged by @stealing-your-kittens , @onceupona-chippedteacup , @smartgirlsaremean, and @grace52373. (*hysterical laughter*) Also, @hedwighood, I never did the new questions part of it when you tagged me, so consider these yours as well!
Rules: 1. Always post rules 2. Answer the questions given by the person who tagged you 3. Write 11 questions of your own 4. Tag 11 people
    First, Christina’s questions!
1. What’s your OTP of all time -- Don’t really have one, old OTPs dim when I move on to new ones. Still like them, but not interested in re-visiting them in fanfic or anything like that.  2. If you could choose any career what would it be? -- I’d like to have a used bookstore that also featured an area where local craftspeople could sell their work.  3. What’s your favourite hot drink? -- I can’t drink anything hot or my face and ears start burning immediately. Hot chocolate if it’s allowed to cool, though. Can’t stand coffee or tea.  4. If you were given the opportunity to travel into space, would you? - No 5. What’s your MBTI? --  I think it was INFJ?  6. Are you more number-y or more word-y? - Definitely word-y! 7. What’s your hair colour and style? -- Brown, just let it fall naturally, usually in a ponytail. Goes a few inches down past my shoulders.  8. What place have you really enjoyed visiting on holiday? - I have vague but fond memories of a lakeshore lodge that my family went to for at least a few summers when I was a child.  9. Do you have pets? -- No 10. Do you like bread? white or wholemeal? - Yes and soft white. Don’t like the nutty taste of whole wheat, or the toughness or things like seeds mixed in.  11. Do you prefer hot temperatures or cold temperatures? - Cold! You can always add a nice snuggly layer of something, but you can’t walk around naked or take off your skin when bare parts of your body are already too hot!  
     Second, Kittens’ questions!
1.You don’t have to name the person, but what’s the one thing you wish you were brave enough to say to someone? -- I’ve pretty much called out all the abusive people in my life in the last couple of years, so can’t think of anything else. 
2. You have the money, you have the time. Where are you going and for how long? -- England. Don’t know for how long, because I’d like the ability to stop and explore an area at leisure if it caught my fancy instead of rushing along from point A to point B on a tightly scheduled itinerary. 
3. Do you have a favorite youtube video? -- Not that I can think of. I’ve seen some funny or cute ones here on tumblr, and sometimes I look up songs by my favourite musicians, but I don’t hang out on the site watching stuff. 
4. What is your go-to, don’t-know-what-else-to-watch movie? -- Don’t have one; I rarely watch movies -- I simply don’t have that kind of attention span. I don’t know if I could come up with more than ten movies that I’ve re-watched a second time in my entire life! I don’t understand how people can repeatedly watch something once they know what’s going to happen. 
5. Is there a song that makes you dance like an idiot regardless of your surroundings? -- First one that springs to mind is The Sleeping Highlander by Tempest. Will be at least bopping in my chair if I hear it!
6. If you could have any animal for a pet, wild or otherwise, what would it be? -- Not sure if I’d consider a horse a ‘pet’, so I’ll stick with a dog -- a rough collie or a Scottish Deerhound or any big, shaggy mutt in need of a home. 
7. Favorite holiday? -- Christmas
8. Do you like those little gel cling window decals? - I’ve never had any, just the plain flat plastic ones. Never felt compelled to buy any, so...neutral?
9. How many pairs of shoes do you own? -- That I can still get on, 3. (Health issues > a lot of foot/ankle swelling > forget about finding anything that fits both feet)
10. How often do you trim your hair? -- I usually chop off a couple of inches once every summer. 
11. Describe your dream house. -- Small to medium sized stone cottage with an already well-established garden with roses growing all over the place. A built-in pool and a wooden privacy fence. Wood floors inside, a room for a library. 
     Third, Smartie’s questions:
1. What’s your go-to comfort food or drink? -- I honestly don’t get the idea of ‘comfort food’. Maybe it’s because I’ve been overweight my entire life, and any food that really tastes good is going to be something that is fattening and would just make me feel guilty for eating it. 
2. Do you collect anything? What and why? -- Books? I keep as many as I have room for, at any rate. And I have a sort-of collection of old/foreign stamps that I’ve saved off of envelopes, which are interesting and don’t take up much space if you just keep them all in a tin. I’d have a LOT more stuffed animals if I wasn’t so hellishly allergic to dust and had more space to display them, because cute! and huggable! As it is, the population is tightly controlled to what fits on top of a storage chest and it’s at maximum capacity. *sigh*
3. What is something that you feel grateful for? -- My tumblr community of friends
4. If you were going to become famous for something, what would you like it be? -- Helping others somehow
5. What is one quality or ability you pride yourself on? -- Fairness
6. What is your most cherished memory? -- Sitting on a fallen tree in a tiny patch of woods (since razed down to build more mini mansions, smh) reading a new book, having escaped from the house at Thanksgiving
7. Why did you choose your profession? If you’re not working now, what’s your dream career?  - I’d run a used bookstore/shop that sells local crafters’ wares.
8. How would you far in a zombie apocalypse? -- I would be an early casualty!
9. Have you ever experienced a supernatural phenomenon? -- Nope
10. What would you most likely be arrested for? -- I have no idea! Unless I finally crack and beat the shit out of some people that deserve it.
11. What’s your favorite swear word? If you don’t swear, what word or phrase do you use to express frustration or anger? -- Shit
    Fourth, Grace’s questions:
1. What is your nickname if you have one? - Nothing irl, Elf or Elfy sometimes on here. 
2. Favorite fandom? -- Rumbelle!
3. Favorite movie? - Lord of the Rings
4. Do you like to shop? - For fun stuff, yes. Or if they actually sold cute clothes in my size at the local stores. Which they don’t. >.>
5. What is your dream career? - Combo used bookstore/shop that sells local crafters’ wares.
6. Favorite food? -- Don’t really have just one. Prime rib is really good, and rare enough to be savoured when I splurge on it. 
7. Favorite alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverage? -- Frozen cokes, or various other slushes -- cherry, lemonade, etc. 
8. Do you ship a couple that is not popular? -- Rush and Mandy, maybe? SGU is such a small fandom already, and some people either blame her for accidentally trapping Rush in the simulation program, or were already such die-hard Rushbellers before even watching the show that they don’t want to picture Rush with anyone else. 
9. Favorite place to go to in the world? -- library (I’m not a traveller!)
10. Do you have a comfort food? -- Not that I can think of
11. Which relative or non relative are you closest too? -- used to be my mom, but no one anymore, really. I’m not good with people irl. 
Fifth (phew!), my questions for anyone who wants to play, and hasn’t been tagged yet!
What colour/pattern sheets are on your bed?
Do you have a favourite decade as far as your musical tastes go?
Sailboat or motor boat for a day on a lake? (or canoe, rowboat, etc.)
Do you have a usual physical ‘type’ of person you’re attracted to?
What’s your favourite thing to make in the kitchen?
Do you have any squicks in fics?
If you have a wall or page-a-day calendar, what’s the subject of it this year?
What do you consider a comfortable room temperature?
What was the first thing that you can remember being really into as a child? 
Do you prefer hand-drawn or computer animation?
If you write fic, which story of yours would you recommend first to someone new to your fandom? If you just read it, which fic by which author?
If you want to do it, and haven’t already been tagged -- @tjmystic, @theherothechampiontheinquisitor, @theheavenlyhinkypanda, @thateruditestranger-thatfucker, @little-inkstone, @ultrareginarules, @theoneandonlylittlebird, @beastlycheese, @the-questionmark-kid, @white-throated-packrat and @mrgoldsdearie.

Tag game
I was tagged by @lovelylangst
rules: Write 92 truths about yourself then tag 25 people Long ass post.
LAST… [1] drink: Grapefruit juice [2] phone call: my fiance @radioactive-earthshine [3] text message: either my fiance or one of the other people in my class [4] song you listened to:  Novocaine by Fall Out Boy [5] time you cried: Night before last? I know I was laughing.
HAVE YOU EVER… [6] dated someone twice: Yeah, just my fiance. [7] been cheated on: Nope. [8] kissed someone and regretted it: Nah. [9] lost someone special: If you mean family, then yes. Otherwise no. [10] been depressed: Low level, never chronic, and I’ve been able to work through things on my own or with my fiance’s help. [11] gotten drunk and thrown up: I’ve never even been drunk. I can’t stand the smell of alcohol, to say nothing about the taste.
LIST 3 FAVOURITE COLORS: [12] Greens (usually a forest or jungle green is at the top) [13] Reds (the brighter the red is the more it has to be in combination with other colors) [14] Black, gold, or brown (kind of a toss-up for me)
IN THE LAST YEAR HAVE YOU… [15] made new friends: Absolutely. [16] fallen out of love: No. [17] laughed until you cried: Hell yes. See my earlier point about crying. [18] found out someone was talking about you: Yup. I tend to leave an impression. [19] met someone who changed you: Not within the last year, no. Well no wait, I lied-- I had an awful teacher at this time of year last year who was so terrible that she was the perfect example to me of what not to do as a teacher. [20] found out who your true friends are: Nope. I’m pretty close with all of my friends and I’m the sort of person who doesn’t put up with ‘fair weather friends’. [21] kissed someone on your facebook list: My fiance.
GENERAL… [22] how many of your facebook friends do you know in real life: Uh, most of them? I’m not on facebook all that much anymore, but most of them I’ve at least met face to face. [23] do you have any pets: My adorable ball-of-fluff cat known as Rainy Mazama. [24] do you want to change your name: lol Already did. It was a pain in the ass and I wouldn’t want to do it again. And I still occasionally get mail and things with my birth name. smh [25] what did you do for your last birthday: Went to lunch with my fiance, my mom, my grandma, and my older sister and then proceeded to be ignored by my mom and grandma for the majority of the lunch. It sucked. Red Lobster is garbage, and note just in case anyone is curious: it’s a shitty move to take someone out to lunch for their birthday and then proceed to act like that person isn’t even there. [26] what time did you wake up: 10-something? Daylight savings time, UGH. It would have been 9:00! [27] what were you doing at midnight last night: Just finished watching the first episode of the new season of Samurai Jack, and spent some time on tumblr before crashing. [28] name something you cannot wait for: Season 3 of Young Justice! (I am desperately hoping they bring Eddie in.) [29] when was the last time you saw your mother: x-mas, and she was just as garbage as ever. [30] what is one thing you wish you could change about your life: That my fiance and I weren’t so damned poor and that we had a house of our own built to our specifications. (I miss having easy access to my miniature library.) [31] what are you listening to right now: At the moment just random house noises and the sound of either the washer or the dryer going. [32] have you ever talked to a person named tom: My brother-in-law (my older sister’s husband). He’s one of the best brothers-in-law ever btw. [33] something that is getting on your nerves: People bigoted and/or abusive jackasses. [34] most visited website: Tumblr and Ao3 both. [35] elementary: Was one of the poorest in the district when I went. [36] high school: Was shit when I went there (though some teachers were really good), was also one of the poorest in the district, but now has improved so much that the New York Times apparently raved about it recently. [37] college: Working on my master’s.  [38] hair color: Darkest-brown, almost black, with random silver hairs scattered throughout. (I’ve been getting white/silver hairs since I was 8, and I’ve got this pale patch of hair near my left temple that is going to look really freaking cool whenever it finally goes white or silver.) [39] long or short hair: LONG. (Down past my butt tbh.) [40] do you have a crush on someone: Nope. [41] what do you like about yourself: I like that even with all the crud I’ve been through that I still do my best to do the right thing. I also like the fact that I continuously work to get past any biases I might have. [42] piercings: NOOOOPE. [43]blood type: I don’t even know. I just know that it’s not my mom’s blood-type. [44] nickname: Just my first name, Fira. Though there is my Salish name, in which case it’d be t̓ixʷlm nc̓icn. [45] relationship status: Engaged. [46] zodiac sign: Pisces-Aries cuspal, and for Chinese-- fire tiger. [47] pronouns: jhe/jhur or they/them, either way. [48] fav tv show: I have too many tbh. [49] tattoos: Not opposed to the idea, just haven’t thought of a design that I’d want to live with for the rest of my life. [50] right or left hand: Lefty!
FIRST… [51] surgery: I don’t know. I think there was something to do with my ears when I was a baby? But that might have just been something only my older sister had to deal with. Idk. [52] piercing: Never. [53] best friend: My fiance. [54] sport: Does roughhousing with your older sibling and beating each other senseless with padded fake swords count? [55] vacation: A camping trip when I was about 7 or 8. The instance I’m thinking of I’m pretty sure I’m mixing it together in my head with another time. Maybe one of those times I was 7 and the other time I was 8. Idk. XP [56] pair of trainers: I don’t think I ever had a pair of those shoes.
RIGHT NOW… [57] eating: Nothing (I need to go get something to eat. lol) [58] drinking: Nothing (Same) [59] i’m about to: Eventually get my butt completely out of bed. [60] listening to: An obnoxious room-mate babbling in the hall (and I really wish she’d just shut up). [61] waiting for: My obnoxious room-mate who my fiance and I have dubbed ‘Alfredo-gate’ to shut up. [62] want: To not have to think about homework or the fact of how this quarter has gone down the tubes, for Alfredo-gate to shut her freaking trap, and to have a month or two to just focus on nerdy things (it’d be nice to be able to pause time). [63] get married: To my fiance, absolutely. If it were anyone else, heeeeelllll NO. [64] career: Ideally? Teaching at the college level in gender studies. If I had some classes to focus on nerdy things that’d be cool though.
WHICH IS BETTER… [65] hugs or kisses: Hugs. Kisses are weird to me. [66] lips or eyes: Eyes. Always eyes. [67] shorter or taller: Doesn’t matter. [68] older or younger: Doesn’t matter just so long as the age gap isn’t too huge. [70] nice arms or nice stomach: I don’t care. I prefer the person. [71] sensitive or loud: Sensitive. Loud can have its uses, but there is a point past which it gets to be too much. [72] hook up or relationship: Eeeeeehhhhhh... Let me put it this way--if my fiance hadn’t been as persistent as she has been (not that I mind now), then I wouldn’t be in a relationship. There’s no way in hell I would get into any sort of relationship if the other person wasn’t @radioactive-earthshine. [73] troublemaker or hesitant: A little bit of both. I have my devious streak, but I usually think through the possible consequences before doing something, just to be certain that I think it’s worth it.
HAVE YOU EVER… [74] kissed a stranger? Nope. [75] drank hard liquor? Nooooope. [76] lost glasses/contact lenses? Thankfully no. [77] turned someone down: Yeah. [78] sex on first date? Pfffft. Never even had sex. [79] broken someone’s heart? I think so, but I’m not sure. [80] had your own heart broken? Nope, unless you count some of the crap I realized when I was in my own personal hell (things like my room not actually being mine and just being the place I was ‘allowed’ to occupy, etc). [81] been arrested? Thankfully no. [82] cried when someone died? I tend to go numb first. Tears do eventually kick in, but it’s not my immediate reaction. [83] fallen for a friend? I’m engaged to my fiance... who is my best friend... who I’ve known since high school... and who I love so much that despite being flamingly ACE and ARO (yes in all caps on both of those, I would be amazed if there was anyone more painfully ace and aro than I am), I am going to marry. If that’s not ‘falling for a friend’ then I’m awfully damned close.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN… [84] yourself? Most of the time. [85] miracles? Idk [86] love at first sight? Eeeeehhhhhh.... Debatable. [87] Santa Claus? The actual historical figure, yeah. [88] kiss on the first date? For me, no. For others, depends on the people involved. [89] angels?  Nnnnnnnyyyyyyeeeehhhhnnnnn.... Iiiiiiii dunno. This is one of those things for me of ‘I don’t know if it exists or not but if I saw it then I wouldn’t deny its existence.’
OTHER… [90] current best friend’s name: Angela. [91] eye color: Hazel green. [92] favorite movie: It depends on my mood, but for the moment I’m going to say the ‘80s movie Enemy Mine.
I tag: @radioactive-earthshine, @weirdnonsensefandomstuff, @dizsasqua, @mr-mustache-penis, @coredesignixandnekonee, @puddingmcmuffin, @kitsuberry, @crashtacular, @sounddrive, @hookahpop, @linzerj, @embracesadness, @lifeofblink, @shadowboxmind, and anybody else who cares to do this, just say I tagged you.

Im crying in the school bathroom rn I seriously love wonho so much I'm in pain why is he my ideal guy in every way he's so amazing and handsome and sweet but whO CARES BEVause he don't kno me haha am I right
big mood all the time im always in pain bc he rly................ doesn’t KNOW i would let him shave off my eyebrows if he wanted 2
tardy replies as usual under the cut!
(sorted from oldest to newest)
I wouldn't even care if wonho was a high maintenance boyf tbh I'd just sit and comb his hair all day and tell him he's pretty
hdjkfh this was so long ago but i think i was mostly kidding abt him being a high maintenance bf... like he would do so much giving? but i guess the only thing he’d need is constant reassurance that his s/o loves him imo jfdhgjk... i also think he’d b someone who either doesn’t settle down ever or does it very late in his life!
annie 🌹literary queen ❤️ literally crowned with a laurel wreath! not be drum attic but this midsummer nights monsta au is so!!!! give me sistar as the four star crossed lovers then drag me to h*ll and give me this doctor faustus au i'm itching for with kihyun as faustus and k.will as mephistopheles bc i love to watch my faves s*ffer but don't let me rip until i get my much ado about nothing au with the entire cast of starship ent and a lil cameo from giriboy!
(in refence to this monsta x as shakespearean archetypes ask!) fjdshgkjs shh i lov u... why is k will as mephistopheles so Accurate esp no.mercy k will lmao. um u should write all of these? in fact if... if anyone has mx literary aus.... hmu...... i’ll n*t
another thing about that incident is that it seems like the fan doesn't think Changkyun and Jooheon undersood them?? (an extension i guess they assumed they don't understand english very well) and that's pretty problematic. it seems to me that when they didn't respond the fan assumed they didn't understand and kept repeating it, as a joke. but they literally did That to the two with the most proficient english in the group... it's rly a mess all around. it's disrespectful through and through
(in relation to that gross “d*ddy” incident from a while ago) ik i feel like some intl fans think korea is a land completely culturally and linguistically alienated/divorced from the rest of the world or something and while cultural relativism is real to some extent... the idea that koreans are completely unaware of ~outside~ things is deeply racist. like mostly white ppl think that diasphoric poc are completely Different from them? when my mum went to the states 15 years ago some ppl literally asked her if there were newspapers in china lol...
i just randomly thought of monsta x as sesame street characters mostly bc i wanna see kihyun and wonho duke it out as bert and ernie (kihyun w/ the waste paper bin on his head and wonho asking 'where's the waste paper bin' and kihyun saying 'ask me that again and look into my eyes') and also minhyuk being elmo tbh...
JKGHKJDF PLEASe!!!! when will something like this b photoshopped... minhyuk as elmo is... spot on... i remember once elmo appeared on a now-discontinued late night talk show program i used to watch when i was in primary school and he was like “elmo likes wasabi, that’s why elmo has no eyebrows” and idk why ive never been able to forget this????? very lmh. also this made me think of a monsta x muppets au n minhyuk is the pic of ass-gape kermit.... next post of mine will b monsta x as kermit reaction pics
Hyungkyun is such an under appreciated ship. Like, they just get each other so well? Why do people overlook it. ㅠ.ㅠ Do you have a moment that made you ship them? How would you describe their dynamic?
it’s bc they’re intp x intj they don’t rly... Understand each other with minimal effort/real communication lmao it’s very efficient. both quiet lil darlings who aren’t emotionally That Open but enjoy their own little space together sometimes?? their dynamic is like... they’re weird in different ways but they’re v chill together. u can tell hyungwon is super fond of changkyun like he has this Expression when ck does anything at all.... i think these two rly love each other’s personalities bc they’re both kind/gentle/peaceful types and their overall ?? vibe is just highly compatible... they’re absolute darlings... v soft together... i can’t think of a favourite moment but i rly rly love their birthday messages for each other last year like changkyun’s message for hyungwon was like “ur rly cool bruh ur rly such a great person” and hyungwon’s message for changkyun was rly... just him obviously doting on him n finding him cute jksfdhg i lov them a lot :(
soyou: i know how to make hair pretty :))) knetz: dirty fckn iljin why can't she be out there being being PRODUCTIVE in society by having babies and learning how to be a good wife for her future husband ://// smh how dare she be successful now when i'm stuck doing what society wants me to do but also anonymously attacking ppl i don't personally know on the internet bc THATS respectable the irony of ugly knetz is so transparent
The whole thing about Knetz and wonho's "scandalous" past reminded me of something. As a PSA to those people who are so insistent and pushy that idols aren't allowed to have sex/date/be anything but straight: Fuck all of you. You do not own these people, and if you really cared about them you'd be happy if they were happy. Like tbh, if anyone that famous and busy could also balance out a relationship at the same time, I'd be so happy for them. It really bugs me how all idols are supposed (1/2)(2/2) have this squeaky clean innocent image where they have to look and act a certain way and have these stupid fucking dating bans because once they don't meet up to that image their success suffers. Idols already give up so much privacy, and the last thing they need is millions of people scrutinizing every little thing they do. I don't even know where I started this rant from, but basically, GIVE IDOLS PRIVACY AND DONT JUDGE THEM FOR THEIR PASTS OR FOR BEING IN RELATIONSHIPS OR WHATEVER
yeth ty for highlighting the gross obsession w purity and productivity (like the first anon said -- a very confucian sort of ideal)... i don’t rly have anything else to add here i think. also i would fight for soyou i fact i would fight lmh who said she was his ideal type in no.mercy era... she’s rly one of my faves and the way she was slandered for the hairdressing thing was one of the most ridiculous things knets ever did lmao honestly yuk
u a kihyun stan now👀👀👀
im a @fhiz​ stan it’s the same thing tbh
ahh so i saw your tags on that jh gifset! as one of the few jh stans (or maybe there are way more than i think there are lol) i rly love his "reversal charm." he has a lot of what i lack as a person: a strong presence and a lot of confidence! i respect him so much as a person alth i rag on him a lot LMAO. sorry if this is a bit long winded but i just rly wanted to put this out there ;;
this is rly cute i lov hearing ppl talk abt their faves lovingly it rly... Heals Me. i think it’s strange how underappreciated jooheon is in this fandom especially bc he’s usually the one who catches ur eye first bc he’s so hyped by starship as being a one-in-a-million talented rapper u know? and he rly shines in mvs and no.mercy but............. y does he have the least fansites jkfhdg ?? you’re v right abt the reversal charm thing but i feel like sometimes it’s very overdone like... on lots of shows he’s asked to do aegyo when rly he should be asked to... idk... rap or dance or something?? i actually think jooheon is the most serious member of monsta x sometimes bc he seems to have a sense that he’s.. the pillar of mx if that makes sense? and that’s why he’s always pushing himself and working tirelessly like he feels very Responsible for this group, more than anyone else. idk if that makes sense!!! i love him and i want him to... unwind a bit bc sometimes he looks so stressed and tired but he still feels the need to pretend to be energetic like my heart rly hurts for him :/ this got so emo im sry i do rly love to hear that u respect him sm i love jooheon stans :(
i can see what u mean about jooheon being 1 of the most masculine. (iirc u also talked abt kihyun being that in a post a while ago) like with his face and his physique he really is striking; his body=like that slim,upside-down Y that you'd learn to draw men w/ in Anatomy 101 , but i think.. ,--not that u asked, but,, i think the jury's still out on if he's comfortable w his masculinity with the way he acts feminine lyk misogynistic comedians Can sound like dead ringers for women,? idk & i take +
(not sure if there was a 2nd part to this? there’s nothing else in my inbox so i’m sry if there was and tumblr ate it) yeth i think i meant that his demeanor is the most ~~masculine~~ whereas i think kihyun is still the most... idk... mature-masculine?? if tht makes sense, and i definitely agree w u on that second point! i didn’t think of that at the time but now that i... do... think abt it... ur right and also the way he comes back from it by putting on the >swag demeanor again in an attempt to polarise it is definitely a bit 👀👀👀 he probably doesn’t want to risk his Manly Rapper Image for real u kno? that said it’s ingrained in kpop that behaving cute --> “girly” entails that sort of “comedic” high-pitched voice + compact body language etc.... like i’m not condoning that ofc but i definitely think it’s broader than this particular case! :/ hm
maybe i'd be doing better in school if i could major in kihyunology ;~; i stan him but i def think we still don't know much about him even after all this time after debut. especially when i look at him compared to wonho who wears his heart on his sleeve (bless him i love wonho sm, gotta protect this bun at all costs!!)...but ya it just makes me wanna learn more about him like who is the real kihyun??
i want to write a kihyun meta when i have time... i feel like i Get him a bit more these days but it’s also very hard to put into words bc u kno when u kinda sorta mb get some1 but it’s a feeling rather than anything conveniently expressable gkjdhfjk.... idk if anyone wants to send in some Kihyun Thoughts + Meta feel free! :>> i don’t think he’s actually... as complex as we sometimes make him out to be lol like his behaviour is actually kind of predictable? more on his later
wait is the february comeback actually true? ugh i'm so conflicted cuz on one hand i'm excited if there's really gonna be a full length album, but i also think they need more rest but then there's the matter of getting their first win and idk i'm super psyched but i'm also worried that the boys are being overworked
i still feel like they had a comeback like yesterday lol like looking at their schedules stresses me out bc they do so much..... im glad wonho got to go to his mum’s cafe recently tho! all we can do is have faith in them rn and when it’s time... stream, buy things if ur able to, spread the news and the hype etc. i am definitely Worried abt some things like the competition they’re up against but.... gotta have faith u kno... and i feel like all active idols are kind of... permanently worked very hard but i think currently only jooheon and shownu are a bit Overloaded. also has the date been confirmed yet... it’s february already...

So i legit reblogged 12 pages of star wars (well mostly tfa and rogue one) content on my blog in the last two weeks or so, while I have reblogged only 17 pages in an entire year lol--most of them happened within 3 months around the time tfa came out. I didn’t even have ANY star wars content before (epi 7) tfa’s trailer came out (that was 2015, two years ago). 
Even though by comparison, I got tens and thousands of spn content on my blog, there is still a bit more sw posts on my blog than usual, obviously. It does seem like ppl r unfollowing me because of that (not complaining, just observing lol). I didn’t count the number but I’ve got to lost at least 100 followers in the last 1-2 weeks, and didn’t gain nearly enough to hide this drop. 
I notice that all the mutuals I’ve been following r slowly hopping off the spn boat , or becoming inactive--kind of like me for months now (my” last 3 days” note counts went below 100 from 2k since the beginning of 2016, and it only went back to 1k couple of days ago bc i have been way more active than usual). So since I haven’t been a little shit lately--actually i barely talk anymore, I can only deduce that the recent drop is mainly caused by 
A. ppl deleting their blogs, ditching spn altogether and thinking i reblog too much spn for them, and 
B. people feeling that I don’t reblog nearly enough spn content for them. 
Here’s the thing, man, I don’t like losing followers lol, esp since I have gained thousands of them over the past 3 years, most of them came from the first 2 years. i know me losing followers right now is mainly caused by me having trouble figuring this blog out atm, but um, the recent dip tells me that i gotta figure my blog out soon lol. I changed my mobile blog pic--it’s a fanart of Charlie (beloved canon lesbian character in supernatural), wearing a jacket (A Gay Thing), with “Star Wars” written in Chinese on her shirt. Keywords: wlw, gay aesthetic, supernatural, star wars, Chinese, and I think these keywords really sum up my blog and esp the current state of my blog and who i am as a person kinda nicely. Lmao. I also changed my update bar and my about pages a little bit, and I’m currently trying to make a new tags page to better reflect current state of my blog, and um, I don’t actually want my content to be all over the place. 
Now, in regards to lack of spn content, I can technically follow more spn blogs to have more spn content on my dash, but um, frankly I dont wanna lol. The amount of spn I have on my blog on a regular basis is the maximum I can allow. Maybe I will generate some spn related content soon....idk....when the season comes back i guess. I have a few gifs and graphic ideas that I need to do anyways. Obviously I can’t and don’t want to have too much spn content on my blog anyways, so, lol. The other other thing is, I’m not sure i’m gonna be in the star wars fandom yet, as matter of fact, I have been trying to find a new fandom to be in since the beginning of 2016 and have failed to do that this whole time. Star Wars series is probably the closest thing to a new fandom to me--Steven Universe being the 2nd closest lol. I’ve got a new ship to be invested in (yet another non-canon gay ship smh), but most importantly a new character to be invested in (not a female character or--i hate to admit it--canonically lgbt, but he’s at least a character of color). However, I know i’m definitely not in the sw fandom right now since I haven’t even generated ANY sw related content (I HAVE IDEAS THOUGH). i just couldn’t stfu in the tags, and I don’t know any sw bloggers either. Also, I really need to re-watch original series and prequels and extended universe content (like the tv series that’s going on right now), and to get myself familiar with all these and maybe fall in love with these, before I can actually be in the fandom ok. Yet I’m more interested in reading the Poe Dameron comic right now than re-watching the prequels and original series again, since I’m more invested in SW franchise’s future, than...its past. 
i’ve never actually jump dramatically from fandoms to fandom before, it’s always been supernatural for me, so I have no idea what to do to actually feel free to put content I’m passionate about on my blog but doesn’t lose too much followers at the same time. (I tried my hardest not to spam people with star wars content by liking these posts first and storing them in my likes as long as possible, and it’s a really tiring process to look for posts in my likes ALL THE TIME, ok, lol, I don’t wanna do that forever ok!! lol!!) As a wlw person of color who’s less and less interested in the spn’s general vibe of...idk....White Americana (with its US centric narrative, sea of white American faces and imagery etc), and more and more disappointed with its continuous and seemingly permanent lack of poc and lgbt characters, I’m losing hope and interest in this show and its characters and even my OTP.  Idk what to do with my blog bc of my increased loss of interest in spn tbh, maybe I should just make a star war sideblog? Last time I made a sideblog, I neglect it for 6 months and I’m still neglecting it lol. So starting anew on tumblr doesnt seem to be what i’m good at. At this point, i’m rly hoping to weed out the ones that switched out of spn fandom completely and the spn bloggers that are unsatisfied with the amount of spn content on my blog, while getting more multifandom blogs to follow me by um...generating multifandom content. Maybe instead of refreshing my dash over and over again, I should just use my drawing pad again, or use my photoshop to make a graphic or edit again, or write a fic make some headcanons, or not procrastinate and finalize my grad school applications and prepare for the next semester.
