hi melty face anon! 😊i saw ur ask earlier today and now im not busy so i can finally actually go thru it and answer it LOL!
your friends sound like nice normal casual fans so cheers to that! the side by side for the lulugirl description vs the fyp of possibly one of the gayest most downbad fanbases is also pretty funny LMAO yall rlly found a way to bond over the most unexpected mutual interest 🤣 do u guys ever send eachother an edit and the other is like ‘actually i already had that one liked 😝’
yeah i agree it rlly is hard out there for new fans rn the ‘you just had to be there’ thing is js completely true. like theres so much to explain that you have to either have been there or u gotta crawl into my brain and see for yourself 🤷‍♀️. the disconnect between new/old fans is tough like its not really their fault for being new wave but why did the new wave have to be crazy invasive 😭? yeah i dont blame other blog people for not having the energy to reexplain old stuff or not wanting to go find links everytime someone asks 😭 its pretty nice some anons go through the trouble of finding them tho. they got a W community fr✊(side note i like how i know exactly what your talking abt having seen other blogs LMAO). about the paige obsessed fans i do agree they have a problem with trying to find out every little bit of info about her like some kind of trend hyper fixation. however sorry but i dont think i see the connection to specifically highschool students 🤷‍♀️. i think plenty of people of all ages have joined the popularity wave and while the actually chronically obsessed ones are most likely younger (like i dont really see a 50 year old discovering tumblr to find out every little detail abt a college bb player 🤣) i dont feel like its all high schoolers esp bc theres plenty of college students on here supporting the true delulu agenda 😭.
no literally abt the pazzi tags thats so true, honestly tho the majority of the videos in the pazzi tag on any site is all still a bunch of random italian stuff LMAO (if anyones curious just look on instagram scroll for like 5 seconds and italian stuff pops up 😭). the publicity for the game was truly amazing but sadly the secret society couldnt stay hidden forever 🥲 my entire life tumblr has been known as like a dead site so i was really shocked that tiktok somehow found it like she really blew up so hard yall rediscovered tumblr for her!?!? like i said tumblrs always been a niche kinda dead website unless you stumbled across it when you were younger and saw something it in. there arent tons of people out there who want to run blogs for things they like anymore. i dont blame new people for not knowing the tumblr lore (you js had to be there in the 2000s) i dont even remember how i discovered tumblr 😭 i havent even always been an active user like now i js knew it existed and my head recognized it as a media site and i never thought more to it. i wonder what the tumblr discovery pipelines are 🤣.
i get what u mean abt blogging you thoughts .the line between speculating because your curious and wanna know but also trying not to feel creepy is so hard because you really cant deny that its creepy to be looking closely at someones life like that😭 but its like yeah i dont judge other ppl bc i like reading abt it and talking abt it😭😭😭. having an interest in smth and wanting to show your interest is literally js so human and to have to holdback your interest because the thing your interested its creepy to be TOO interested is the most frustrating thing 🥲 if i had friends who would hear out my thoughts i would not have a tumblr blog. the purpose of my blog really is simply just me wanting to talk abt smth i like with people. how i see it is keeping thoughts to yourself isnt as fun bc like who will give you a second perspective on your theories!
LMFAO they really are a family they in this together frl. i think the sense of exclusivity comes a little from the fact that they’ve been interacting with eachother for a while and have seemlessly connected with eachothers views over time so its js rlly easy to be talk about basically anything when you know all abt the other people your talking with. anyways i love your asks i js like laying down and reading it all while writing my response its so entertaining i think ive been writing this for like 2 hrs im watching baby driver on the side😭. im on the last sentence of ur ask🎉!! about my grammar and spelling its jsut like i type what im thinking and i dont wanna go back and reread it to see where there needs to be a comma 😫 LMAO. its not even just when im high but when im high i care even less 😅. you wished you were high 😯 pookie do u smoke like that? i wanna know all abt it

Hi! I am writing a dating show bts fanfic and need producers aka some lovely authors or beta readers who won’t mind to helping me with ideas from time to time ;_;
Help me please ;;
If you want to help, contact me and I will add you to the google doc party/brainstorming session :]
My goal is to make it really interactive with audience/reader voting and stuff. (We will see how that goes :'D)
Here is the beginning of the story to entice you further!
---
Gangnam Girlfriend: Korea’s #1 Celebrity Dating Show with your Host, International Super Star, Jin!
“Hi yall! I’m y/n! I am so excited for this opportunity! What do I want from this experience? I want to find someone who can embrace our differences!” you cheer, looking directly at the camera. “How was that?” you turn to the production staff, lowering your voice to its normal register. 
“Hmm one more time, more excited,” the staff member waves his arms over his head. Ugh. Exactly how much more excited can you act?
Did you really want to do this? Not really, your agency convinced you. As a foreigner, you didn’t have many options, a struggling actor working in Korea’s film industry put you in a very specific box, and in order to get out of that box, you needed to make a name for yourself. Show them the real you. At least, that’s what your manager kept telling you, convincing you to take part in this dating show. It was the hottest thing on Korean TV at the moment, and you were very much single and alone, so you thought, why not kill two birds with one stone?
You repeat the script they provided for you, animated and cheerful and so not your actual personality. “How about we try something a bit different? Answer my questions.”
“Okay.”
“Why did you come here?”
‘To make my manager happy,’ is what you really wanted to say. “It’s hard to date as a foreigner. I’m getting older,” you shift, worried how the camera is picking up your expressions, can they see your laugh lines, your blemishes? “If I can find love with someone who also works in this industry, I think, I’d like that.” you nod, smiling.
“What is your type?”
“Hmm someone funny, smart, knows how to cook. If they were an actor too or maybe even an artist. Well anyone, BUT an idol!” you laugh.
“You would prefer not to date an idol? That’s something we don’t hear a lot on this show.”
“Well, I’ve been in relationships where we’ve had to hide our status. It was...horrible. I hate it. I’m old enough to realize, I don’t want a partner who is ashamed to be seen in public with me. I want to go on a date on the Han river and not have to worry about hiding my relationship. I want to be shown off. Idols have dating bans and there's so much stigma, that once we leave this show I would be afraid they’d want to continue our relationship in private. I don’t want that. I have pride, you know? I want to be happily shown off, not hidden away.”
“Ahh, I understand. Would you give an idol a chance?”
“I don’t know.” you grimace. “Why, are there lots of idols this season?” you laugh, joking, but the uneasiness from the staff makes you worried, chest tightening at the idea.
“I am here to show my real self to the Korean audience. I’m taking this seriously. I want to find love.”
The producer sees your sincerity and nods to the cameraman. He’s been in the industry a long time and knows these shows are stepping stones for actors and musicians to further their careers. Professionals want to look like perfect boyfriends and girlfriends to build a stronger fanbase, so your sincerity is a nice change. Good, because he plans to make this season one of a kind!
“You probably won’t like our new host this season, then!” 
“Why do you say that?”
“Our new host is Kim Seokjin from BTS.”
“K-Kim Seokj-jin?” 
“From BTS.”
“From BTS.”
---
So, I need contestants that are not BTS members (I'm not saying that they won't show up >_>). I am still on the fence on whether I want to use other idols or OCs. They can also be modeled after your fav Korean singer/actor/idol. I know old school idols, but not that many new ones. So, any and all suggestions will be welcomed and appreciated <3. I've never done a collab before so here is me shooting my shot at all the bts authors out there :'D <333

Tues 1 June ‘21
Harry was out and wandering the streets of London today, seen in the park and out to eat and all over just doing his thing all alone but for his lil blue bandana- happy pride month to all! Along with the bandana were the dick necklace and more stripey shorts like the Golden video ones; no beanie this warm day, just a white cap. More pictures of Louis today too, but not FROM today, just more of him lookin good at the wedding- plus one so many people were waiting for, yes! There’s Hot Luke!
Liam checked in today while he was on his way to do another podcast, something with a “smart entrepreneurial” person, and he followed Steven Bartlett, an investor, author (“Happy Sexy Millionaire”) and podcast host (“The Diary Of A CEO”) so that’s a clear enough announcement of that I’d say. He also posted to recommend a track from Wolverhampton singer/producer S-X (and followed him and said guys please check out my friend), and to tell us he’d be going live on insta later but alas, later came and went with only a message saying his podcast recording had run over but maybe tomorrow, and dropped by the discord to leave some messages here and there and tell people to “be nice and kind to each other!” (strongly advise some actual moderation too though sir, haven’t we SEEN that simply telling your fanbase to TPWK doesn’t work??) and to confide that he had a new song ready to go for some time soon but “PS don’t tell anyone” UM you told us that the other day but OKAY. He posted a new link to the discord so more fans can join.
Niall wished Tom Holland a happy birthday and said things, so many things, and even more exciting promo is yet to come; he and Anne Marie will be on RTE tomorrow but also-- they’ll perform on Jimmy Fallon June 7!! Today’s interviewer really went hard on 1D Qs so, “We never really saw ourselves as these big stars, we were just lunatics going around the place, like kids just having fun and at the end of the night we would just get up on stage and play it to 70.000 people, it nearly became in a way half normal," and "It's cool when you think about it like that, you have been part of so many people's lives around the world for so long... I mean the longer it lasts, the better for me cause I absolutely love what I do!" and “They’re all good. Babies, movies, and tunes. Everyone’s doing good. Everyone’s just going along with it and having fun,” but also “The worst one I'm getting now is 'oh I used to be such a fan' and you're like 'uh what happened, you're not happy with it anymore?'... And I'm actually like 'why? did my music not suffice?” lol ouch. But he also told this little anecdote and it sounds like they played his solo stuff so that’s something right? “I remember one time I was at dinner in Milan with my manager & we walked in & could tell straight away that someone had noticed me. There was more bread on the table than ever in any restaurant. They played 4 of my songs back to back.”
And Zayn commented on a post about his recent release with a little thank you prayer hands-- the tweet said “zayn malik making yellow metal- cathartic about racism, xenophobia, immigration, political interests and self-esteem and self-improvement. do yall realize how important are the things that zayn said with music in 24 minutes? no artist has dared so much, kin”. He doesn’t come around to comment on things much but when he does he really makes it count huh? Well said OP, hell yeah.

Okay, can I requests all free! boys (maybe add for albert and kaede too) with s/o who is youtuber (they s/o is pretty famous though) and what kinds of video would they like to do together. I love your writing and tq for it and don't forget to stay safe🥰🥰
Hey lovely! 💕 i love this request so imma pump it out rn (hey Free! queens haven’t seen yall in a while, how we doing? 😎)
Im just gonna do for style 5 + Albert and Kaede for now but let me know if you want the rest 😉
This is actually something I’ve thought about a lot so lets get into it 🤩
Did i proof read this? No ❤️
Haru:
Tumblr media
He’s that boyfriend who supports you in everything you’re doing while simultaneously having absolutely no clue what you’re doing
For example; vlogging absolutely boggled his mind at first
“Who are you talking to?”
“Oh I’m just vlogging, do you wanna say hi?”
“Vlogging?”
“Yes, say hi.”
“BuT tO wHo?”
After a while he gets used to it though
“You’re vlogging? Hey guys.”
You have to beg him to be in videos otherwise he won’t do it
When he does though it’s usually a good old “How well do we know each other challenge” and sometimes you can even manage to rope him into one of those “picking each others clothes” videos
He’ll make appearances in vlogs though
Actually quite likes holding the camera
He ends up seeing fans in public and when they come up to him he’s like “👁👄👁 how do you know who i am?” But after the initial shock he’s really nice to them
Will facetime you so they can say hi
Absolutely 100% gains a fanbase of his own
All the comments under your videos with him are the funniest things ever with some gems such as:
“Haru really said 😐(😍🥰)😐”
“POV: ur the camera seeing Haru actually smiling ❤️👄❤️”
“#saveharu”
Makoto:
Tumblr media
Supportive king!!!
Hands down your number one fan
He’s always offering to help you with your videos
Is always down with being in videos with you
His favourite thing is making videos like story times and doing gaming videos with you
Which are usually pretty chaotic and funny
The gaming videos provide your subs with a lot of cute y/n-makoto content
“Babe I suck at this”
“No you don’t, you’re the best” he says it really quietly while smashing buttons and taking his game very seriously
Vlogs are the best too, he talks to the camera like he’s on a FaceTime
“Oh! Hey guys, how are you all doing? I hope you’re doing good.”
Your fans love him
You’ve earned the “mom and dad” title
Since they love him so much you often let him take over daily vlogs
“Hey guys. Y/n isn’t feeling great today so you’re stuck with me!”
The comment section:
“Hi dad 🥺😭”
“Imagine having a boyfriend who loves u enough to literally do your job for you when you’re sick 😭😭😭😭”
“Whose gonna tell y/n that her boyfriend contemplated bringing home like 5 different cats 😳”
Everyone wants you to give him an e-boy transformation
You’re still trying to convince him
Rei:
Tumblr media
I think he’d really enjoy doing videos with you
Not camera shy at all
The man has a lot to say
His partner has a beautiful online presence and he’s super proud of you!
He’d love making videos that have a little bit of competitiveness to them
Loves a challenge
Playing boyfriend tags with him is stressful af because he has the date of everything you’ve ever done memorised
Absolutely BODIES the swapping clothes for a day videos
He’s a really good sport and your fans really like him
“Rei looks better in a skirt than I do, you guys...”
“I simply can’t help my calf muscles, my love.”
Not great with vlogging
The comments you get:
“Rei when the vlog camera comes out in the mall 🙈 i do not see🙈”
“I wanna see them wear matching outfits 👀”
“Y/n please ask Rei to start up a studying channel 😭”
You actually rope him into making a study tips video with you
To be fair he does most of the talking and you just listen and look at him like 🤩🥰
He loves interacting with fans
He’s always liking and commenting on fan edits of you on Instagram
Nagisa:
Tumblr media
Jenna and Julien. Jenna and Julien. Jenna and Julien. Jenna and Julien.
Most chaotic baby on camera
Craft! Videos!
Also chaotic challenges
King of gaming videos
He also is willing to let you put make up on him
“Nagisa, I’m begging you, please sit still.”
Absolutely does not sit still but gives you a lil kiss
He’s so sweet on and off camera
Most of your vlog content is just him doing golden retriever boy stuff
Your audience adore him
Videos come up in your suggestions and they’re all like, “Nagisa being chaotic for ten minutes straight”, “Y/n trying to get Nagisa to pay attention for 4 minutes.”
He gets so excited when your doing videos together, “Yeah guys, this is actually my channel now. I’m taking it over.”
“No he isn’t.”
“Yes I am. Sorry babe but you’re fired.”
Mr. Steal your channel
Rin:
Tumblr media
😍😍😍 am i right?
First of all; he’s such a heart throb
Your fans are obsessed with him
He always wants you to work out with him so you decide to get some content out of it
Video gems like “Eating like my olympian Boyfriend for a week”
“RinRin, how the fuck are you even still alive?”
“It’s a salad, Y/n, not a bowl of air.”
“Who the fuck orders a salad at a restaurant, Rin?”
“I’m so sorry that you guys have to hear this profanity.” He says to the camera as if he doesn’t swear every five seconds
Those are usually the types of videos you guys make together
The comments you guys get when he’s feeling lovey in a video
“Oh to be Y/n 😓”
“Alexa, play sweater weather by the neighbourhood”
“The way he looks at her. Im in pain.”
“If they ever break up, i want you to put me down.”
Vlogging at the movies is hilarious because 99% of the time when you come out he’s crying
“Guys please stop telling Rin to take his shirt off on camera, he literally can’t say no and it’s distracting.”
Rin swimming content is highly requested
And what can you say? You give the people what they want 😌✨
Albert:
Tumblr media
He’s into it
Once the camera comes on, this man becomes a comedic legend
“Hey guys, today we’re uh, doing something. I’m gonna be honest I don’t know, I didn’t ask. My girlfriend pulls out the camera and I do what I’m told.”
“We’re going to give you different aesthetics.”
He’s like 🤗 “oh okay go for it”
Very complient
He’s down for absolutely anything
“Content is content baby”
Sometimes he just comes into your video room and hijacks your videos
“Thought I’d pop in and say hi”
And by pop in and say hi he actually means sit beside you and look at the camera like he’s on The Office
Oh my god do the fans love this man
He trolls them
He sees comments like, “Y/n is so cute! 😍” and he’s like, “That’s why she has a boyfriend.”
They love him though and if he sees them out in public he’s super sweet
Kaede:
Tumblr media
(Im ngl this dude kinda scares me)
Probably has to be coaxed into making videos with you
I get the impression that this man is cocky on camera
Did someone say ✨pda✨
“K, I’m making a video”
“So?”
Doesn’t really interact with fans
Or pay too much attention when he’s actually filming with you
He doesn’t really care but he does it because it makes you happy
He’s more responsive when it comes to vlogs
“I’ve convinced y/n to come to the pool with me, she doesn’t swim but she looks hot in a swimsuit. Not as good as I do, but still.”
You have to cut a lot of the stuff he says out of videos
He makes so many innuendos
✨comments✨:
“It’s the way Kaede doesn’t care about literally anything for me 🙈”
“Someone please check on Y/n, she’s TIRED 😩😓.”

hypothetically, if I were to write a fix-it/rewrite au fic, (thinking of starting at s5 but debating starting earlier) what are some storylines you’d take out/change, characters you’d save/kill, and specifically changes to sam’s character/arcs you’d like bc i need ideas
ok. ok. I'm gonna try to not go completely off the fucking rails while I write this up but I gotchu (also these r all just my own hot n spicy takes so like. pick what u like, it's all goodie goodie)
• no time passing differently in hell. literally four months is ~Enough!~ a year is enougghh!!!!!! like I get that they wanted to make hell this horrible unreachable thing but u can still like... get that across without having it be this unfathomable chunk of time out of a persons life. like sam was down there with TWO very pissed off angel's for 180 years??? how can he still speak english??? how does dean remember ANYTHING about his old life when mentally more than half of it was spent being endlessly tortured until he finally cracked??? its just.... Too Much...
• ON that note, I feel like later on they never rlly had sam and dean bond over the fact that like... they are genuinely the ONLY two people on earth who have survived actual hell. I mean we got that one off line from dean at some point but??
• no chuck as god. just a greasy greasy rat man getting insane stories projected into his brain. and on the topic of that.... I dont like the reflection of the real life fanbase in the spn universe??? they're pulp fiction novels, it should be all like 50 year old + ladies who picked them up at the local bargain bin, not b*cky r*sen
• I like... WANNA say smth abt s4..... bc I think the way that they handled things were a little out of character BUT I also think that was lind of the point??? like the angels and demons were manipulating them to say/do things they would normally never say/do to eachother to drive a big enough wedge between then that they would eventually say yes to being the vessels. like it hurts to watch sooo much but it did drive the plot forward in a very particular way that probably couldnt have happened otherwise. that being said, when the levee breaks makes me sad, and I dont want to see sam crying for his dead mother alone in a basement! cest la vie.
• sam and dean.... are Friends...,, why did we all forget that..... watch hell house and maybe I'll calm down.....
• PSYCHIC SAM!!!!!! you all know me. you know how I feel about psychic sam... robbed. s4 finale rlly had sam like "drinking that much demon blood has truly changed me forever..... theres no going back now...... 😔😔" like ok. ok. where are your superpowers. where are they.
• I wish some of the other special children had made it out :(( I really liked andy and ava (also sam finding other friend who are like him??? queer allegory??? spare queer allegory?????)
• I also dont think the roadhouse shouldve burned down!!! that shouldve been a Staple Location like Bobby's house. same w Missouri's, literally why did we only visit her once.
• ur sending an ask to my blog so I assume this is just a given for u but!!! we're takin away the misogyny. we're takin away the fetishization! anything that would be given the greenlight by joss whedon we are putting straight in the trash. <3
• this is mostly a thing in later seasons like. idk 9-15, but no ppl knowing who the winchesters are. they are NOBODIES. they pop up like little meerkats and fuck everything up beyond repair.
• also no fancy tech. no iphone 76z or whatever the fuck. sam has an ipod 1. the wheel is so stuck he can barely press play anymore. remember when he literally just tore off the top casing off his laptop and threw it away? more of that.
• no nice clothes. NO nice clothes we fuckin hate that. everything sam and dean own was purchased pre 1995 and dean is an expert at removing blood stains and sewing up jackets. dean will walk into a laundromat with a tide pen and just start goin for it like that scene in deadpool.
• tbh.... I feel like the issues in later seasons are really this massive horrible domino effect. like I could say heres how to fix s7-10 but the fact is if shit hadnt gone down lile it had in s7 s10 would be a different story entirely.
• I am gonna do it tho bc I suck <3
• s6: soulless sam was funney but did that really go anywhere? no. tbh I dont remember what happened w cas and I'm just not going to look it up. it's just not in the cards for tonight. dean w lisa.... ehh.... I've discussed this at wayy too much length w mushroom and we both agreed that dean would probably keep hunting to keep his mind off things and to try and honor sams sacrifice. I guess theres an argument to be made for the fact that it kind of was Sam's dying wish that dean just go fin her and live a normal life but... idk. purgatory was. . indeed a Concept..... that could have maybe gone somewhere if it didnt rapidly spiral into....
• s7!!! I mean. jesus christ. I know some people like this one but jesus christ. the way they literally couldnt commit to having sam have genuine mental health problems after centuries in hell or to just magically wipe them away..... bobby dying halfway thru.... charlie was a bright spot I suppose, but her intro is not my fave episode w her.... idk what the fuck happened w cas, I guess he was god. the leviathan designs were kinda neat but like oh my fucking god it wasnt worth it.
• s8: uh. rough start. idk why the turn tables so suddenly and dean's like "why didnt u look for me >:((" bc??? yall agreed not to???? at the VERY least they couldve had sam been like "I legitimately had no reason to think u werent dead and in heaven and tha wouldve been a little rude of me to pull u out of that." but we went for ~drama~ to make it spicy I guess. ouygh. bunkers there!!! that was cool!!! MoL is a cool concept!!! altho... it doesn kinda contradict the whole sam and dean are nobodies thing... idk. trials of hell was like... cool in theory but bad in practice unless they were planning on ending the show for realskies. and they did not.
• s9: uhh... hated gadreel! hated that shit! wish they had spun that whole storyline to be more "hey sam I noticed u were s*icidal should we maybe address that??" or even like.... I mean dean probably couldve just TOLD sam abt his plan, he had already convinced him to stay alive by that point??? there was no reason to lie!!! plus the betrayal of gadreel not being who he said he was wouldve been like. literally enough drama, we didnt need to fracture the team again. and cas was??? where exactly??? be was human for at least half of that season but hey didnt know what to do w him so they chucked him in a convenience store??? good lord.
• s10: got no suggestions for that one, just toss it
• s11: ok... shes cute.... we can forgive her.... the lore is shaky at best but the episodes SLAP and the characterization is *chefs kiss*. it's been a hot minute since I've seen it so if smth sucked I dont remember and I plan to keep it that way!!!!
• s12: n.. no. no mary. no mary unless we're doing it right. and I promise u doing it right was not poorly ripping off kingsman. couldve brought back bobby!!! if they desperately wanted some drama couldve brought back john!!! actually fuck that, no way
• s13-15: no thoughts, only jack kline <3

Did you ever make that joker tier list, I always like seeing what people think of all the different ones. Though if they put Romero last I can no longer respect them.
LMAO I DID! I think I’ve made it kind of obvious in this blog but I... don’t... particularly... care... for... the joker.... unless he’s, y’know, fun to watch. Cause he’s a clown, and clowns are supposed to be entertaining. But since you politely brought it up, and and because I have a deep respect for mutual Romero-lovers, I guess this would be a good time to explain my rankings and just discuss my general thoughts on each clown:
Tumblr media
General Thoughts:
For the most part, I don’t really care for the Joker. This is hardly an uncommon opinion here on tumblr, but I definitely fall on the side of the fandom that feels that he gets too much attention from DC. I get WHY they use him so often for films and comics, and I don’t have anything against *most* folks who consider them their favorite Batman villain, but at this point he’s used more for shock value and as a crutch instead of anything interesting. Like, instead of giving attention to the other Rogues, writers (at least for the comics) will try and make up some bullshit story that they can shoehorn the Joker into, ‘cause it sells. It’s tiring, and I feel like the character has lost his meaning; I can only read so many stories about the Joker, I don’t fucking know, wearing a suit made from dead babies and Jason Todd’s flayed corpse before I get sick of it.
I’m at the point where I’ll like any Joker who’s just fun to watch. I genuinely respect those who prefer darker interpretations of the character, but that isn’t me; I vastly prefer the lighthearted takes on him, because... at this point... writers who use the “cleaner” version of him tend to be more creative, since they actually have to write a Joker story that doesn’t rely on gore/torture porn.
TIER ONE:
Joker Baby: Self explanatory. Joker Baby is thematic, thoughtful, and intense. Everytime I watch this video, I shiver with fear and pleasure; something primal in me awakens whenever Joker Baby runs his fingers through his spray-on dyed hair, and ends up smearing green paint on his forehead- it represents the inner turmoil, the chaos, that resides within the disturbed body that is Joker Baby. Nothing can ever hope to top the artistic and cultural impact Joker Baby has had on society.
TIER TWO:
Batman Ninja: I genuinely believe that Batman Ninja is one of the most fun, organic, and creative things to come out from the Batman side of DC comics in like... hmmm... a decade, maybe (I could talk for hours about how much I love this movie but that’s something for a future post). This Joker is easily, and unironically my favorite interpretation of the character, period. I love his energy, his design, everything. This is the most fun I’ve ever had watching a Joker on-screen, and for that I’ve gotta give the film credit where it is due.
Batman ‘66: I looooove Caesar Romero. Batman ‘66 in general is one of my favorite pieces of Batman media, and I absolutely adore this Joker. The show is pure, genuine fun, and it’s nice to turn my brain off and watch a show where the entire cast was allowed to goof around. This Joker is just a cute, goofy little clown-man who likes to commit crimes, go surfing, turn Gotham’s water reserve into gelatin, and have wild orgies with Penguin, Catwoman, and the Riddler. I massively appreciate the hustle. I love his little mustache and his facial expressions. I’d give him a chaste little kiss on the cheek if I could.
The Batman: EXTREMELY CONTROVERSIAL TAKE BUT. I think TB!Joker is better than what people will give him credit for. I can only imagine how stressful it must have been to be the first Batman cartoon to follow BTAS and the writers for this show knew they were gonna be fucked no matter what they did with the Joker, so they just decided to try something completely different with him. Personally, I appreciate the new direction- he has a fun, unhinged energy. I’ve placed him higher than BTAS/BTNA!Joker simply because The Batman was the show that got me into the Rogues in the first place, and I’m just a bit closer to this Joker because of it. Also his vampire form was cool as FUCK in Batman Vs. Dracula and the scene where he gets drenched in blood at a blood bank is fucking awesome.
Batman the Animated Series/The New Adventures: Everyone loves BTAS’s Joker, and I’m no exception. Mark Hamill is fucking great, and the writers clearly knew the character well enough to create a version of him that can be fun and threatening. As an aside, I unironically like his redesign in BTNA- I remember Hamill mentioning somewhere that he thought it was neat that this Joker looked more like a shark (I’ll see if I can find a source on that... I think he said it in an interview with Kevin Smith?) and I kinda agree with him. the redesigns in the final season are hit or miss, but I didn’t get why so many people bitched about the Joker’s new look.
Batman Unlimited: Hear me out... Hear me out... Clown... funny... and cute... He wears a little crown and gives Solomon Grundy a little smooch on the cheek and it is as delightful as it sounds. Yes the Batman Unlimited films literally only exist to sell toys but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy them on some ironic level.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
TIER THREE:
Lego Batman: He’s a gay icon. He has the range. Enough said.
White Knight: This is just a genuinely good, original take on the character, and the art in White Knight is absolutely gorgeous. 
Arkham: My friends and I joke that this Joker is basically a more unhinged version of BTAS! Joker and... yeah. I’m glad Hamill and Paul Dini got to fuck around with the character more, but I never really dwelled on the Joker parts of the games like I might have for other characters. I definitely liked him the most in Arkham Asylum, as he was more fun to watch. Arkham City was fiiiiine, but I think I replayed the game so much that I kinda got fatigued with everything about it. Genuinely hated his part in Origins, and I was pissed that he stole the attention from Black Mask and Bane (who’s the best fucking part of Origins IMO). I’ll admit that I... Haven’t... played... Knight yet (I have it on PC but my laptop is too wimpy to run it) but like... He’s dead at that point, so I’d assume he isn’t the main point of that game anyway. I love Mark Hamill and the fact I can personally beat the shit out of this Joker, so he’s ranked up pretty high for those reasons.
TIER FOUR:
Batman ‘89: TBH this Joker should be a rank higher, but I’m too lazy to hop onto PicsArt to change it. NIcholson was an excellent choice, and I apprecaite how this Joker makes use of the playful and unhinged aspects of the character. Also, his outfits are cute, and I love the museum scene.
Brave and the Bold: Technically this Joker SHOULD be ranked higher since he’s literally based on the more lighthearted comics in the 60′s but... ehhh... I haven’t really watched BATB so I don’t have any strong opinions on the show and how it handles the character. he’s ranked this high through beause I appreciate what they were going for.
Golden Age: The quality of comics are always subjective, based on the creative team behind them. Some I’ll like more, others less so, It’s kind of hard to rank the pre-52 comic version of the Joker because of this.
TIER FIVE:
Killing Joke: Read it, didn’t care for it. I acknowledge how massive the impact this comic had on... everything, but just because I recognize how important this graphic novel is, doesn’t mean I have to like it.
The Dark Knight: Ledger did an excellent job with the role, but uhh... I’m kind of sick of the alt-right chuds who are out there sucking this Joker’s dick. The fanbase definitely ruined the character for me.
TIER SIX:
99′: Eh
Endgame: No
Suicide Squad: NO
Death of the Family: Hate him. Despise him. Lame stupid dumb little edgy bitch.
Gotham (Jeremiah): I don’t particulary care for Gotham in general, but the only reason I ranked this Joker over Jerome is beause I thought it was kinda funny to see that they made him a little rat-man, and I liked watching all the fujoshi on here cry and complain that they can’t ship this version of the joker with the pre-pubescent Bruce Wayne in the show bc he’s too ugly.
Gotham (Jerome): stop shippping this freak (who is fucking eighteen years old) with a literal twelve year old child. what the FUCK is wrong with yall.
UNRANKED:
The Joker (2019): I don’t plan on watching this film, nor will I ever. I know this is ironic, coming from someone who runs a Rogue blog, but stuff that focuses primarily on a character’s deteriorating mental health makes me reaaaaallllllyyyyy anxious (it’s kind of a phobia) and considering that I don’t particularly the Joker, I have no reason to watch something I know will only give my dumb ADHD-ass intrusive throughts.

This Got Out of Hand (and we’re out of paint): Marvus Xoloto ♦♠Reader
yall i swear i’m gonna get on writing stuff that actually got requested but this idea wouldn’t release me until I’d finished it so here we fuckin go
Tumblr media
This simply could not stand.
Black flirting and romance, once upon a time, was a concept utterly foreign to you. It had taken roughly three conversations with Tegiri and Polypa on the topic (and a lot of time spent around Galekh and Tagora) before it had registered to you as anything more than consistent hate fucking and passive aggressive remarks. 
That was before you met Marvus. 
The clown was many things: attractive. Creative. Charismatic. Funny. Way more intelligent than he presented himself as. He was also a shit-starter, would probably pail with Zebruh before he would confess to a genuine emotion without fifteen layers of casual slang and innuendo, and seemed to take intense pleasure in riling you the fuck up whenever he got the chance. One way or another he wormed his way into your head, and suddenly you couldn’t stop hearing his voice in your head even when he wasn’t around. Challenging you, teasing you, testing you, doing his utmost to get you a nice, steaming anger before ruffling your hair with a wink and walking away.
It was also possible you were a little bit smitten with him.
Or maybe a lot. 
Regardless, in time you’d come to understand that it was a mutual thing. For as much as he didn’t show it, you were beginning to read between the many, many lines with the clown. He enjoyed the hell out of you, sure, but he also seemed to find you something of a puzzle. Beyond the fact that you still hadn’t kicked Zebruh to the curb (and he never failed to send you an eye-rolling emoji whenever he appeared in one of your Chittr photos), every story about your past that came up seemed to render him a little bewildered about what it was you’d put up with in order to attain those sweet and lofty fruits of FRIENDSHIP. 
“i mean, lil stab-stab here, lil push off a cliff here, ‘sall gucci sunshine. normal n all that shizz.”  He’d said, in one of his rarer moments of honesty. The fact that both of you had slammed a couple liters of faygo in the aftermath of a particularly exhausting show probably had something to do with it. He lounged on the couch, absently combing fingers through his piles of hair. “but keep hangin out wih m-fers what still wish ya harm, or bloo shizzheads what won’t take no for an answer, that’s a whole other thing, uhearme?”
You’d waved dismissively from your position lying on the floor. You were a little drunk yourself at the time. “Its fine. Usually. And when its not its like….phoo, somehow it gets fine anyways!”
“jus sayin” he said, shifting until he was upside down on the couch, face inches from yours. Close enough that you could see the greasepaint starting to flake off. “need sumbody what can keep ya from gettin urself killed, lil buddy.”
“You volunteering?” You’d crooned. Ok, croon is a strong verb, it was more like slurred, but crooning was the intention is what matters.
“u askin me to?” He smirked, pressing a single claw to your forehead. Internally, you’re pretty sure that’s not how volunteering works, but noticing that isn’t at the top of your hierarchy of needs currently. 
“Mmmmaybe.” You rolled onto your back. You can feel your heart pounding just a bit right now, but somehow your voice is floating even and light. Like you don’t have a care in the world, and this is just one more joke in the scheme of your weird mobius double irony reacharound of a relationship. “Maybe I wanna go all gorlekh with you, what do ya think of that.”
“‘scuse?”
“Gorlekh. Gorgor and Lekh-…..lekh….” You made a dismissive noise, gesticulating your hands wildly as you moved to sit up. “The black one!”
“….ur talkin spades?”
“Yeah! The kissmissies….kissmich….” Wow faygo was no joke on your system. “The hate one. Like I don’t hate you, except I think I do a bit? But like in that weird alien way where I think it just makes me like you more and its confusing but I don’t wanna stop and you’re so damn cute and….and…”
Your voice trails off.
Because the man is honest to globes grinning. No smirk, no lazy half-smile, no lowered eyelids, nothing to give that careful impression that he’s only happy in a chill way. Just a huge, toothy smile that split his face.
Bro that shit was radiant.
“m-fer, u have no idea what ur in for….”
—–
You really hadn’t but you hadn’t had a moment of regret since then.
It was a constant game of one upmanship between you, an intense competition to see who could get who to visibly express their emotions first. Maybe that was unusual by kismesis standards: it didn’t seem much like Tagora and Galekh’s dynamic. But you were enjoying every second of it, and if Marvus had complaints he sure as hell wasn’t voicing them.
The only downside, all told, was the lack of time.You didn’t have hours to build on the tension. More often than not you had moments between shows. Actual antagonism had to be planned in to make sure the point got across without actually getting either of you hurt. After a full day of work he was usually too burnt out for more than light teasing and, to borrow his phrase, “sloppy makeouts”.
Those sloppy makeouts were becoming in themselves the point of your focus.
��-
After one such particular petting session, you glanced at the clock out of the corner of your eye. Fuck, it was late (er….early) and you had a long walk home with your car out of commision. You sighed, pulling yourself off of him with no small amount of protest. “I’ve gotta go.”
“u got some1 else u gotta do this to” he muttered, getting to his feet and brushing himself off. You were starting to realize a denied, overtired Marvus was a grumpy Marvus, which was as endearing as it was needy as hell.
“Maybe~.” You say, enjoying the glint he got in his eyes. You straighten out your clothes for a bit. “Tomorrow?”
“day off tomorrow bruh. clown church” He slipped an arm around you from behind, leaning down by your neck. “which means u can stay here-”
“Mm-mm” You slip free, nudging his face back. “Not tonight. Not here.”
“keep tellin ya juggz don’t spread shizz around” He said, lips pouting out a bit, which forces you to look away.
Denial is part of the game, after all. 
“‘Juggz’ aren’t the only people around here. And I’m not looking to get your fanbase up my ass. I’ve got more than enough people looking to cull me” 
“Hehe, tryna make me jealous ;o)”
You roll your eyes and head for the exit to his dressing room.The cool night air beckons outside, but you find your path suddenly obstructed by his arm. With a huff, you look up at him. “I’m heading ou-Mmm!”
The head turn had allowed him to get a grip on your chin and pull you into another deep kiss. Not a kiss, actually, if there was a word for it you’d describe it as some kind of facial wrestling match. He kissed around your mouth, your cheeks, your eyelids, in rapid succession, all the while insistently rubbing his nose and cheeks against your face as you spluttered. 
“Marvus-I—hey!!” 
With a final peck to the tip of your nose, he drew back grinning ear to ear, face paint now a smeary mess. “have a nice nite, b~” 
And you suddenly found yourself outside, hearing the door lock behind you. 
Oh that little- You snatched your phone out of your pocket and turned on your front facing camera. Sure enough, your face was now suddenly covered in white-grey paint, already caking on your cheeks and making you look like you’d fallen face first into glue.
“Marvus, I’m gonna kill you!” You said, pounding at the door. From the other side you swear you hear him laughing, which is only adding kindling to the fire at this point. 
Great. Perfect. You could either face the long walk home or use your sweatshirt to wipe it off and leave a visible stain on the black sleeves. Fuck it, you won’t be able to make it to Tyzias’s to do laundry for a bit, so you’re gonna have to walk of shame your way home. Fanfuckingtastic.
Practically the second you crossed the threshold your phone buzzed.
therealxoloto: send pics before u clean urself up aight ;o)
Oh he wanted a fucking-
You sent him a well backlit photo of your face, largely covered by an Alternian hand gesture Mallek had taught you.
therealxoloto: hell ye that’s that good shizz
Alien_among_you: you think you’re so funny
therealxoloto: clown church baby lmao
therealxoloto: i’m fxxkin hi lar i OUS
therealxoloto: ♠
Alien_among_you: ♠
You go to bed with cheeks red and chapped from being scrubbed, which was DEFINITELY the only reason they were red.
—-
After that, no kiss was safe, not truly. He’d found a button to press, and he sure as hell wasn’t gonna leave it alone while it still worked. Sometimes he’d led you go days, wipes even, without an incident, only to jump you once you were lulled into a false sense of security. Practically everything you owned had been stained with the stuff with the point, and you’d gotten more mouthfuls of it than you’d care to mention. 
And naturally, this meant war.
It took you some time to figure out an appropriate revenge. Just stealing his paints felt over the line somehow. While you were still figuring out the ropes of clown religion, the fact that you had yet to see a clown without the stuff probably meant it was important. Marvus had only just started cleaning it off in front of you, and while he hadn’t made a big deal out of it, you’d gotten the impression that it was kind of a moment for him.
So, taking the stuff wasn’t an option. All that was left was to thwart it.
Can’t mess up a face already covered.
You waited till he’d left to run an early rehearsal, then quickly raided the vanity, tracking down brushes and setting powder and a couple of those little white brushes. You opened the tins and carefully positioned yourself in front of the mirror. Alright. Ok.
You hadn’t exactly done this before, but how hard could it be to figure out? 
Fifteen minutes later you realized that optimism was a bit misplaced. You weren’t exactly aiming for perfect, but you at least didn’t want it to look like a kid had painted you up. That would give him leverage to flip the teasing back on you, which was not the point of the exerices. You kept have to undo your work. The diamonds edges were too round, or too wide. The eyebrows were uneven. It took you far too long to figure out how to even tape down your natural brows. The makeup wipes were starting to pile up and paint was getting much lower. How the hell did he do this every day, it looked practically effortless-
Footsteps in the hallway. 
Panic rose in your throat as you swept the trash into a nearby can and haphazardly tried to make the vanity look like it had when he left. As they grew closer, you realized your eyebrows were still taped down, and ripping those off in a hurry was probably not the best idea. You practically dove into the bathroom, locking the door behind you.
“¿Yo, I leave my palmhusk in here?” 
You feel a sudden rush of relief. Not your clown. You recognize the voice: Payasa, one of the newer acts. You open the door a crack, seeing a tall juggalette with close cropped hair and a complex design resembling a moth across the center of your face. Damn, you weren’t even managing basic geometric patterns, how the hell did she paint that on every morning?  “Haven’t seen it, sorry.”
“¿damn, sorry ‘bout the intrusion?” The lanky clown starts to leave, before hesitating. “¿uhh…..you doin alright motherfucker?¿Need me to get the big man?” 
“No! No….” you say quickly. “I’m fine.”
“¿alright…?”
A thought occurs to you just before she leaves. Normally it’d be uncomfortable asking, but…you wanted to get this done.“….actually you know what.” You push open the bathroom door. “Could I get some help with something?”
She turns around quickly, gaze eager. Alien or no alien, she’s new here and eager to please. “¿watcha need?”
“I need you to help me put some face paint on.” You say, gesturing pointedly to your eyebrow situation.
You feel a cold spot of dread as the clown’s cheeks go bright purple. Oh globes, is this one of those troll things you’ve just put your foot in. Did you just spit in the face of the mirthful messiahs or something. 
Payasa rubs the back of her head, eyes darting towards the door. “¿er….does Marvus…know about this?”
“Its a surprise for him,” You say quickly. Hoping against hope, because otherwise its back to the drawing board or figure out how to do it yourself.
“¿I…?” The clown grimaces, nervously tugging on one of her many piercings. She seems to be at war with something inside herself. Finally, she swallows and looks back down at you. “¿sure….?”
A relieved look crosses your face. “Thank you so much, I promise I wouldn’t ask otherwise, but I’m pretty hopeless at this. 
“¿heh…no p?” She said, giving you a shy half-smile. “¿did you uh….have a design in mind?”
“Oh, that’s the easy part. I just need you to copy Marvus’ design.”
Another weighty silence. The purple faded, and its hard to tell under the makeup but you think she might have just gone pale, her eyes bulging out of her head.
“….is that….is that not ok?” You say weakly. 
“¿I-….it’s uh, fine!?” She managed to stammer out. The gazes towards the door returned, but after another look at your pleading face she seemed to gather her courage and slam it closed, making you jump. “¿its fine.?¿ Can do it quick, right?¿ Don’t have to be a big deal or nothin…?”
“Uh….sure?”
Payasa drags up a chair to the vanity bench and gestures for you to sit down. Despite the oddness of her behavior, you’re didn’t get this far looking gift clowns in the mouth. You sit down.
She makes quick work of it, though she still seems nervous. Her face keeps going purpler and purpler the longer she paints, and her ears flatten to the side of her skull as she worries her lip with her fangs.
“Are you sure this is ok?” You finally ask. “There’s not like, a rule against this or anything, right? I don’t want you to….I don’t know, commit heresy or something.”
“¿Nah, nah, not heresy, motherfucker.?” She says quickly, dabbing the poff in the setting powder before carefully dusting you. “¿Jus….little unusual is all.?¿But ain’t my place to judge.?”
“Why is it unusual?” True, Marvus seemed to prefer to do his own makeup, but you’d seen other juggalos do each others faces all the time, especially on the rare wipe end Marvus could drag you out to clown church. It had always seemed kind of peaceful. 
“¿I uh….think I’m gonna let Marvus tell ya about that.?” She mutters, putting on the finishing touches. “¿Ain’t sinful, though, promise.?”
“Well….that’s good, I guess.” You help her put the paints away. “Thanks again. His reaction should be worth it, at least.”
She let out a sharp laugh. “¿Yeah, imagine it will…?” She got to her feet, replacing the chair and giving you a lazy, two-fingered salute. “¿Gotta bounce and get ready for my set.?¿have a nice night, little motherfucker.?”
“You too.” Man, what does it say about your life right now that ‘little mothefucker’ read as affectionate. Before you can contemplate that, Payasa leaves the room, closing the door behind her. 
Marvus doesn’t come back for another twenty minutes or so. You lounge on the couch, scrolling through your messages and dicking around with a couple of games you’d downloaded for Diemen. You got so far down the rabbithole that by the time Marvus opened the door you’d almost forgotten what was on your face.
Almost.
“m-fin sound issues, swear 2 fxxkin glob…” He was muttering, twirling his staff absently in his fingers. “sorry i’m-”
He finally turns his eyes on you, and you’re treated to a rare sight.
Marvus Xoloto, speechless. Mouth still halfway open on its way to whatever he’d been planning to say. Eyes slowly tracing your face. You could practically see the question marks popping up over his head.
Its your turn to smirk, tucking your phone back into your pocket as you sit up, tossing your hair back a bit. “Lookin for your makeup rag? Bad news bitch, I’m already co-”
Marvus heads back outside, slamming the door. 
….Ok. Not the reaction you were expecting.
You waited for a second. Was this a bit?
….
Ok ok not a bit not a bit-
You scrambled to your feet, following him out the door.
Instinctively you move towards the green room, but he’s not there. Just a couple of the others, lounging around and hitting each other with squirts of a substance you deeply hope is whipped cream. One of them catches sight of you and their eyes go wide. “….damN, didnT knoW yoU anD xolotO werE therE.”
“Have you seen-….what do you mean there.”
They chuckle, getting up and clapping you on the shoulder, giving you a big goofy grin. “he’S A luckY maN. prettY surE I saW hiM headiN foR thE costumeS closeT. leT A brotheR knoW iF yoU neeD A buckeT oR somethiN, aY”
Coming down to it you wish Marvus’ friends were a little less helpful sometimes. “I…think we’re good. Thanks” You brush past him on your way to the closet, hearing a couple distant “whoops” as you retreated.
The costumes closet is tucked away in a small corner. He’s not there, and for a moment you nearly considered looping back to his dressing room, before-…
Is that muffled screaming?!
Nervously you tap on the door. “Marvus…”
The sound lapses, and there’s a long pause.
“…..ye?”
“You uh, doin alright in there.”
“heh…def b. gucci.”
“You kinda rushed out.”
“…..”
“I’m coming in.”
“…..cool” he says, sounding resigned.
You open the door. Its stuffed to the brim with an array of truly unspeakable clothes. In the blinding sea of color Marvus is practically camouflaged, but you do eventually spot him. Slumping against the back wall, holding a crumpled shirt in his hand that he seems to have been screaming into. His expression is stony and tired in a way you aren’t used to seeing from him, and his eyes aren’t meeting yours.
One of the hardest things you’ve had to figure out about kismesis is when to break kayfabe. Following every barb or prank with an apology kind of defeats the purpose of a kismesis. They’re supposed to let you dangle a bit. But at the same time there are lines that can’t be crossed. You’re not supposed to genuinely hurt them, or force past boundaries they aren’t comfortable being violated.
The issue, especially in Marvus’ case, is figuring out the difference between the two.
You close the door behind you, pressing your back against the cool metal. “So…..I’m getting the impression that this,” You gesture to your face. “May have been a bit more symbolic than was my intention.”
He’s quiet for a long moment. You can see him struggling against himself, probably considering whether or not he should try to laugh it off. In the end though, he just nods.
“And I may have hurt you somehow?”
“u didnt-”He groaned, tilting his head to lean against the wall and closing his eyes tight. “who even did that 2 ya…”
“I….they’re not gonna get in trouble, right?”
He gave you a Look. 
Right. Not his style. “Payasa”
“n she didn’t think to explain y that might give a clown some m-fin pusher problems?”
“She was acting kinda weird about it, but I think she assumed I knew. Or…was maybe a little too scared”
He sighed, breath coming out in a huff. “fxxkin messiahs…” Slowly, he slid down the wall to sit on the ground.
You hesitated a second, before approaching him. Carefully, you slid to sit down next to him, resting your hands on his knees. “…Can you explain it to me? Please?”
His claws traced out patterns in the shirt he was still holding, as his eyes seemed a million miles away. You found your attention drawn to the slow rise and fall in his chest, the tension in his shoulders. He seemed nervous, a weird look on a man who came alive in front of a crowd of millions of rampaging teens. 
“juggz paint iz personal shizz. start workin on the lewk on yer naming day and it keeps changin while you’re changin. lotta symbolism and liturgical shizz go into it but the main thing iz its….u.” He turns over his hands, staring down at them. Faint purple lines run across the palm, a crisscross of old scars. “ur paint’s ur identity. sum mothafucker steals that, they’re stealin u. hell, even gettin some1 else to paint for ya is a big fxxkin deal. ur puttin ur whole identity in their hands and askin em to put it on ya. lotta clowns don’t even let their quadrants paint em”
Your palms go clammy. In your long proud history of fuck-ups, this one didn’t quite take the cake, but it had definitely cut out a larger slice than would be deemed socially appropriate. “I….holy shit, Marv, I’m sorry.”
“sorry?”
“I didn’t realize, this was like, taking something from you. I can take it off-”
You cut off your sentence when you realize his shoulders are shaking.
If he’s fucking crying you are gonna lose your entire mind-
And then a laugh tears out of his throat. Low and throaty and sweet and uncontrollable, the kind of laugh you heard from him maybe once in a blue moon. You’re taken aback (and more than a little flustered). You can only watch, cheeks growing progressively redder as he slowly subsides, hunching up a bit as he tries to catch his breath.
“I…what….”
“fxxkin saviors, b, sumtimes i forget, ufeelme?” He turned to look at you, grinning wide. “forget how alien u are to allathis. i ain’t mad”
“You aren’t?”
“nah lmao”
“….then what was all of this about?!” You say, shoving his shoulder. “I thought you said-”
He catches your wrist, pulling you to straddle his lap. “hey, hey, don make a m-fer bust out the shoosh paps.” He says, tone completely amused as he soothingly strokes your arms. “jus shuddup for a sec and lemme get raw, kk?”
You decidedly have more to say. But… looking at the soft expression on his face you’re having a hard time remembering what it is. In the end you nod for him to continue, settling back at bit against his legs.
He takes your hand, gently unfurling it and caressing circles in the palm with his thumb. “ur paint is u. and the people all in ya life, the 1s that count….they’re also u.” His thumb presses down solidly, shooting sparks up your arm. “told ya, the design grows like u do. pretty much expected once shizz gets serious with some1 ur gonna change things up a bit to reflect that. like chahut. the heavy paint round the sight specs a reference to that little indigo shit she goes craftin with. doesn’t always happen right away, but, when it does…” He releases your hand and moves up to cup your face. Eyes lidding a bit as he contemplates the design, traces the diamonds with his eyes. “pretty fxxkin big deal”
“I…..so, when I….” Your face goes red with the sudden implications, which makes him chuckle.
“yeah lol. kick in the bulge. not xxxactly what i was thinkin i’d see”
“So….that’s why you left?”
His lips press together a bit, and he gives a shrug at least twice as nonchalant as it should be. “…yeah. woulda been trippy even if ya were another purple but knowin u had no fxxkin clue what u did. like watchin a lil squeaker paint prophecies in stick figures. had to get out just to make sure i didn’t do smthn weird as hell”
“…..like what?”
He hums, gripping your chin and dragging you back down to press a soft kiss on your lips. Warm breath fans across your face as he smirks, exposing just a bit more of his fangs than was technically necessary. “show ya when we got more time ;o)”
You groaned. “This is illegal”
“fxxkin arrest me then bih” He patted your thigh, flicking his brows up.
You mutter something treasonous under your breath.
“n-y ways, u should clean urself up” He kissed your forehead. “camera crew$$$ gunna b up my a*s soon”
You sigh. “Right…” Bracing your hands on his shoulders, you push yourself to your feet. “Heaven forbid we appear to visibly be a couple”
“rite? gross lmao”
You shake your head and smile as you head for the door. “Right. Gross.”
“hey.”
Before you can turn around he’s wrapped his arms around you from behind, fitting you neatly to him. He leans down to bury his face in your shoulder, and despite the circumstances that lead you here, you know the only motivation is a desire for closeness. “let me do u up next time” He mumbles, voice rumbling against the skin of your neck. “not mine, but….somethin a yours. find out who u are, ya feel?”
…..You cover his hands your own, squeezing them tight and biting your lip to hide a grin. “….bold of you to assume there’ll be a next time, bozo”
“c’mon, we both kno u can’t resist the idea of my touchstumps all up in ur nugbone hehe ;o)”
“Sure that sentence would be very sexy to someone who isn’t an alien.” You turn in his grip to face him probably. “….love you.”
“aw, babe, that’s gay lol”
“I taught you what that means and you weaponize it against me? Treason.”
“i’m 1 naughty m-fer.” He kissed your forehead. “love ya 2”
“And…..hope you aren’t attached to this shirt.”
“…wha-”
Acting fast, you yank up his shirt and scrape it across your face, taking as much greasepaint off as you could before breaking free of his grip and bolting out the door. Loud, clowny curse words chase you as you tear through the halls, a smile threatening to break your face in half as you ran.
The road to vengeance is long sometimes, but it sure is sweet.

6. Do you have a certain kind of ship you’re more attracted to? bros being homies okay im so weak for the idiot memelords who all share one singular braincell its wonderful.
7. Are most of your ships “pure” or “problematic”? uhh i think as far as this fandom goes none of my ships are actively being bashed on and theyve all got pretty wholesome dynamics sooo nah? but then like i go and angst them all up so idk if that makes them problematic lol--
8. Who is the most shippable person you can think of? ...fang. probably because i think about him the most and also cause he got one of the best character development arcs and that just gives him a really solid dynamic with other characters //now im just making excuses hes my favorite okay
9. Are there any fandoms you don’t have any ships for? kind of? im kinda neutral on ships like i dont Need them (esp not in canon i actually prefer canon to be shipless bLESS MONSTA) and i don’t bash on any for the most part i can See all ships. but i dont necessarily actively Ship ships all the time yknow? so ig the answer is no...
10. Do characters have to have canon interactions for you to ship them? lmao nope (see kiki ta x ayu yu and probs a dozen other ships that dont come to mind at the moment)
11. What makes a great ship in your own opinion? uhhh dynamic??
12. What drives you away from a ship? lack of dynamic-- shipping for aesthetic is nice but i just appreciate the good art without really connecting to the ship itself yknow
13. Is there anything you ship but refuse to interact with the community for? mm yes. idk i feel like the fanbase is polarized between “soft pure bean with no or few ships” and “thirsty simps 18+ only” and both categories scare me too much to chat ships with lol
14. Has a fanbase ever made you ship or not ship something? Why? yES but not the bbb fanbase thankfully cantsaythesameforthelastfandomuhm
15. Do you like/participate in ship wars? Why or why not? already answered this one
16. Are there any ships you just can’t/don’t understand? What are they? boya. also saifang, come to think of it (the latter is significantly less popular). in both cases i consider them as a familial bond and cant really see them any other way? like i see bbb and yaya as mlm wlw solidarity and sai as an older brother to fang more than anything else so yknow hshsh
17. Are there any popular ships that you just don’t like? What are they? i mean the collective fandom otp is boicest so yknow. not my jam uwu
18. What is your favorite unpopular ship? bruh my otp is unpopular ToT
19. Do you prefer fluff, angst, or smut for your ships? angstangstangst *cough* ill take a nice order of fluff please and thank you kindly uwu
20. Do you prefer bigger fanbases or smaller ones? big fanbase have more content and its easier to find ppl to talk about rarepairs with. small fandom already have so few people its near impossible to find anyone to talk about your toiny ship with and even harder to find fellow fans irl. big fandoms have more potential toxicity tho--
21. Have you ever received hate for a ship you liked? lmao yeah but not for this fandom //probs cause i rarely talk about bbb ships in public anyway lol
22. Do you have any ships that you ship, but would never want to see as canon? all of them. i praise monsta every day for making their content 100% gen and i would never want it any other way bLESS

24. What is your favorite canon ship? *sweats intensely* captain kaizo’s dragonfly ship looks badass wish they kept it instead of the new round thingy he has that looks like it could impale someone- okay but papa zola and mama zila are heckin wholesome i love them and im so glad pipi has good loving parents
25. What are your favorite ships from a dead fandom? i dont think any of my current fandoms are Dead per se..
26. What are your favorite shipping scenes? “the captain praised me, what of it?” “open the door to my heart!” but also mONSTA WHY WOULD YOU DELETE BBB INVITING FANG TO STAY OVER AT HIS HOUSE FROM BBBM2 OTL //at least it meant we got it released internationally early so i could enjoy that much from canada
27. What are your views on reader x canon ships? already answered
28. What is your best shipping advice? whats with all the ship hatin ToT even if yall heathens cant understand multishipping, surely “mind your own damn business” and “live and let live” are easy enough pills to swallow??
29. Do you like OCs (Original Characters)? already answered
30. What are some of your favorite shipping blogs? are there bbb shipping blogs? i know theres the ramenzo one.. i dont think boifang has any active ones and my other ships are too rare to be considered lol yeah im pretty sure the only fandom shipping blogs (if any) would be boicest rip

mr anja, from the bottom of your joth femme lesbian heart, do you really think klance will become canon king? im reading all the fan theories and i am so fucking convinced blease,,, blease do you think yorance has a chance???? (also! sorry if calling you mr upsets you aaa! i just know you use he/him, but im sorry if i assumed incorrectly!!!)
man i dont want to like. upset yall or anything but i dont think so..... ofc if voltron goes ahead and proves my ass wrong then ill go fuck myself KJSNKDJGNJGSK but ive really kind of just lost hope..... this whole show is just fucking wild and lm and jds treat lgbt rep as.. kind of a joke......... they treat it as if the only fanbase for this show is a bunch of cishet girls begging for some ‘hawt yaoiz’ and even if they did decide to make two of the shows most important main characters gay or bi, i feel like they would treat them differently....... more fan servicey...
i just dont trust them to give us what we want.......... i really feel like theyre gonna stick in two alien guys holding hands for one episode and call it ‘gay rep’ and thats it .........................
now on the OTHER HAND .... jeremy has been nothing but a godsend to this fanbase and his spoilers/leaks (whether orchestrated by dreamworks themselves or just genuine slip ups) he’s been giving us hope for actual, canon, explicit rep , even saying that “something was going to happen between two characters” which of course cld mean anything but after his track record of spoiling certain moments in the show (like galra keith) its nice and easy to assume hes being honest about the rep and that its going to be something we’re happy about .............
season seven and plus seasons (as stated by lm and jds) are going to be the more “romance-y” seasons since all of the big hurdles and obstacles are out of the way so obviously once s7 comes out my opinions might change but until then.... my definitive answer is.......... gonna be maybe ....this probably wasnt the answer u were looking for but im just thinking realistically ... hopefully we WILL get something we’re happy with, even if it isnt k+l .........

Yall I’m Finished Needs to Be Done
You know, I’ve always been one of the first people to stick up the for SU fanbase, but this whole SU critics vs Anti SU criticals (or more commonly referred as SU Stans) war really has made me want to distance myself a little. I’m not blaming the SU critics though. They have all the right to criticize the show all they want. Criticism is good for art and you can learn a lot about storytelling by digging deeper into what works and what doesn’t. However Anti SU Criticals are trying to put a stop to that. Anti Critics are some of the most worthless people on this site. They keep repeating the same Dumbass arguments, argue against even the most irrefutable points, and many of them are just terrible people. I find Anti Critical people in general to be toxic and annoying, but the Anti SU crits have taken it to a new level. That’s why I’m going to highlight the one that is definitely the worst one, Yall I’m Finished. 
Tumblr media
He is definitely the worst one for reasons I’ll get to. Maybe it might be better to block or ignore him, but I feel like this would be more fun. I hope to uncover his bullshit fast than the speed of light. Now the point of this post isn’t to encourage harassment of this individual, it’s more to calmly illustrate why being an Anti SU Critical is not worth it. Also this might make for a good laugh. Let’s get into why Y’all I’m Finished needs to just be done. 
First, yes I went through this guy’s entire blog to get the biggest understanding of his blog. I kept seeing his posts in the SU critical tag and he kept saying the most ignorant things ever.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He is most definitely a dedicated Anti SU Critical despite what he says. 
Tumblr media
Dude, I went through your entire blog and almost every post was an SU Critical Critical post. Also your own blog description states “Uncovering Su Critic bullshit at the speed of light”. You are a worse liar than Trump. The last line is definitely the biggest lie because here’s the thing, you are a hypocrite. In fact, I will uncover the depths of his hypocrisy. 
So let’s get into some of the horrible things he has said. Well he defended Concrete to start with. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes, not only did he defend Concrete, but he also states that POC are privileged in this society. Now I’m a white male who came from a upper middle class family and even I know that no, they are not privileged. I don’t know how far up your own white ass to even think that. Yes they get Affirmative Action, but that’s meant to counteract all the disadvantages they get in our society. There’s so much racist bullshit in our society that even I’m exhausted from it, and I can’t even imagine what it’s like to be a POC who has deal with this stuff all the time. I understand why the Angry Black Person stereotype exists, because white people keep giving black people shit to be angry about! 
Though that isn't the only time he said stuff that proves that he probably has spoken to an actual black person. 
Tumblr media
Yes, it does matter. It’s a word that’s been used to dehumanize black people for centuries. I just don’t get white people’s fascination for wanting to use the N-Word. If it’s just a word then there should be no problem with not using it. 
Though that’s nothing, wait to you get to this post. 
Tumblr media
For those who don’t know Terfs are “Feminists” who are transphobic. So he compared people who are criticizing a show to actual bigots. You know, Mad Max Fury Road is one of my favorite movies, but both times I saw it in theaters the people I saw it with didn’t like it. You know what I did. Nothing. I wasn’t mean to them, I wasn’t comparing them to Apartheid, I just accepted that they had a different opinion than me. Why can’t all of you Anti Crits be half as mature as that!? 
Though if he thinks SU Critics are as bad as bigots, I wonder how he will react to an actual bigot. 
Tumblr media
Oh my god. 
Tumblr media
For those who don’t know Gemkorp was a Nazi fan artist of SU. This included a gif art of Connie getting shot in a ditch. So this guy complains about SU Crits all the time, but when it comes to an actual Nazi your response is “They weren’t hurting anyone”. So someone posting about height inconsistencies is ruining the show, but fan art of Connie getting brutally murdered is a ok. Of course, he got rightfully called out on this bullshit, to which he apologized and has a epiphany about what he’s doing. He turned his life around and is now open minded towards other people... I’m lying of course, he doubled down on defending Nazis when got called out. 
Tumblr media
Oh my god. They want everyone who isn’t white dead you idiot!!!
Tumblr media
They’re not all bad!? Nazis are bad by definition. Maybe in 1940s Germany you might have had German soldiers that didn’t hold Nazi beliefs, but being a Nazi in modern day America is inexcusable. Maybe they can be redeemed, but I personally want to protect innocent POC first. 
Tumblr media
They are protecting people! They are trying to stop white supremacists from organizing and hurting people. Would he have the same reaction if they were taking down sites from ISIS!? White Supremacist kill more people in America than ISIS do. 
His “let’s be nice to Nazis” mentality did gain him a fan. 
Tumblr media
Yes, that’s Gemkorps new account giving Y’all I’m finished their seal of approval. Gemkorp is definitely a Nazi with multiple Nazi positive posts which includes them wanting to beat up gay people. Remember when Y’all I’m Finished compared SU Crits to Terfs? 
Now let’s move on to his hypocrisy. We started uncovering it a little with his whole “SU Crits are the devil, but Nazis are harmless” mentality, but let’s dig a little deeper. Let’s start with this post:
Tumblr media
Yes, anyone who has half a brain can spot the obvious hypocrisy in this post. Like it’s just comical at this point. 
Remember how he said that Nazis don’t deserve to die just because they have different beliefs? Yeah. Imagine if he said that SU crits deserved to die just because they criticized the show. 
Tumblr media
Yes, really he really made this post after his whole spiel about how you should be nice to Nazis. Also if you don’t like hearing SU Crits whine anymore than stay out of the fucking tag! I know I’m not the only one who’s said it, but avoiding SU Critical posts are so easy to do! Avoiding Anti Crit posts when you follow SU Critical on the other hand is kind of impossible. Also I just noticed that this guy likes to start of ignorant post with “No Offense”. That doesn’t absolve you from criticism!
Now we have uncovered some pretty hard hypocrisy. You know what would be the ultimate hypocritical thing he could do. He could make an SU Critical post. Of course he wouldn’t do that after everything he said about SU Critical. No one can be that dense...
Tumblr media
Ignoring that what he’s saying is extremely stupid, yes he really did this. He just did this today. I’m laughing my ass off at this. Really man? Really? So according to Yall im finished, SU crits deserve to get hit by a train, yet he just criticized the show. He deserves to get hit by train according to himself. I have never had that  much self loathing and I have depression! 
Now to all of you who told me that you hated SU Critical because they were rude, look at this guy! Now do you see how silly you sounded!

Bring Me A Dream (Pt. 5)
Tumblr media
Summary: You’re still at the park and for some reason Mark feels like quizzing you, good luck!
 Little shorter, but that’s okay! Honestly, full on fluff and whatnot, hopefully you will all enjoy! Also, I edited this late at night and may have missed a few things, but tomorrow I’ll relook over it and what not! Just wanna get this up for yall ;3
Previous        Next 
Check out the masterlist is here :)  
Tags: @kourt-kay @boots-jpg @bananakid42 @mtttme @let-it-go-and-live-again  if you want to be on the tagged list,  just message me and it shall be done!
Enjoy!
~~
      “Look chickadee, it’s you!” Mark exclaims as he points to a little gray bird with a primarily black head of feathers aside from a single white stripe from its beak to the side of its head. Its feathery form bounces about in the tree- slightly jittery but overall it seems to be relaxed as it takes its time just exploring the tree around it. Whether or not Mark meant to be teasing or playful, you smile cheerfully and watch the tiny ball of feathers with adoration.
     “Mark, that is one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen,” You begin a light giggle on your lips, “how on earth am I that adorable little bird?” You’ve seen chickadees before, but you always seem to forget just how precious they are. Your current beaked buddy looks to be the size of your palm, if not smaller.
     Although you aren’t looking, Mark rolls his eyes playfully as a crooked smile slides onto his expression, “I swear you make me be cheesy,” he shakes his head and turns to look at you, “You’re that ‘adorable little bird’ because you’re one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen.” Yet, the raven-haired lad also feels the need to add a quick quip to counter the cheesiness of his previous statement, “Plus, I’ve gotta say, you have a bit of a bird brain.”
     Your head whips over to look at his with eyes wide and brows knitted together, “I do not!” You protest, your lips shifting into a proud smirk, “I think I’m quite smart!”
     Mark raises a teasing brow, “You sure about that?”
     A slightly shocked gasp leaves your lungs and you can’t help the hint of laughter that escapes you- you give him a friendly shove after shaking your head. “You asshole! Yes, I am positive!”
     He hums in thought and strokes his stubble, “You’ll have to prove it…” Mark trails off as he tries to think of a way to ‘test’ you, the moment you see a shit-eating grin cross his face you realize he’s found his solution. “I’m going to give you a test on the most important subject ever, can you guess what it is?” The way his eyebrows wiggle in anticipation gave you a rather good idea of what this ‘subject’ may be.
     “Is it you?”
     “No! Ha I- Oh wait,” Not expecting you to get it, he chuckles sheepishly, “Actually, yes, that is the topic.” A light rouge dusts his cheeks in response to this ounce of embarrassment, you simply proceed to laugh at his silly blunder, “Oh shut up,” it is now his turn to return a friendly shove in your direction, which almost ceases your laughter. A bubble of joyous giggles escaping every now and again. “Are you ready for your test, chickadee?”
     “Ready as I’ll ever be, Markimoo!” You exclaim, being a Dream Maker does have some benefits like being able to access vague memories- though this would still be far easier if he would be asleep and you would be in your true Dream Maker state; a time in which you could assess his memories in depth. Nonetheless, you believe you’ll do fairly well in this test of his. You watch as he prepares the questions in his mind, his lips purse as he tries to think of question, the hand resting on your arm subconsciously traces circles into your skin. Ever since that most delightful chase and him carrying you for about half way across the park, in a rather uncomfortable manner as well, the two of you stopped at a charming park bench under a shady tree. Though, eventually, you’ll return to your previous settlement. For now; however, this bench is just perfect.
     “Okay, we’ll start off easy. What’s my whole name?” The tiny circles stop and instead his eyes land on yours.
     “Mark Edward Fischbach, simple.” You shrug, leaning into him further, “What else you got?”
     He chuckles and tells you what else he has, “And where did I live before L.A?”
     “Cincinnati, Ohio,” Albeit, your answers may roll a far bit too fast off your tongue, but as you assume, his fans could have probably answered quicker than you just did. Mark nods and mumbles something about doing a good job.
     “What did I do in high school? Like, ‘club’ wise?” Mark inquires, and while for a moment you weren’t exactly sure what he meant, you soon come to the realization.
     “Oh! You were in marching band! Trumpet, right?” A bright smile crosses your lips, which Mark returns along with a light laugh.
     “Right,” He assures, and in deciding to throw you a wild ball- he asks a most obscure question, “What was my high school nickname?”
     Your brows knit together as you scan over your mental files for the answer. Whatever it may be, obviously hadn’t been impactful in his life and would be a trivial little fact about himself. “Can I get a hint?” If you can at least have some tidbits of information around the nickname, it may bring up some memories and lead you to the answer.
      You hear him give out an audible and exaggerated sigh, “I guess so.” He ponders quietly for a moment as you try to hold back a giggle from his reaction, “People started calling me it because of a glitter incident.”
     A glitter incident? Glitter is that bothersome and sparkly infestation of colors, isn’t it? Most commonly used in crafts and is noted for its persistence, no matter how hard you try- you can never get rid of that sparkling parasite. A name pops into your heard and you begin to wonder. Maybe that’s it… “Does it rhyme?”
     “It does.”
     “Was it Markle Sparkle?” You ask, unable to withhold a laugh or two due to the silliness of the nickname- if that is what it was.
     “It was!�� He exclaims with his own laughter following, “I was ol’ Markle Sparkle because someone threw glitter all over me.”
     Your laughter only increases as you shake your head, “Oh God, I kind of want you to be Markle Sparkle again,” you say along with a devious, but playful, smirk spreads on your lips.
     Mark shakes his head and pokes your nose as if scolding you for such a thought, “No, he is not making a comeback! Glitter is like the herpes of crafting, I don’t want it in my house,” his boisterous laughter only gets louder and you’re reminded that indeed, you can still hear it from miles away if you want to.
     “Better watch out then, Markimoo!”
     “Says the girl who hardly knows Los Angeles well enough to find a craft store,” He quips with a cocky slanted smile and you blink before proceeding to shake your head again.
     “Alright, you got me there. I can admit when I’m defeated,” You admit and while you’re about to add on, he starts to talk instead.
     “Y’know, while Markle Sparkle won’t be coming back, I actually do have a few other personas who’ve come back lately,” He looks toward you and sees the swirling confusion in your eyes, “Do you know what I mean?”
     While feeling as though you may have an inkling as to what he’s talking about, you’re still uncertain and in case it may somehow relate that beast, you figure letting him explain may be best. So, you offer a nervous chuckle and shake your head, “Not exactly?”
     The glimmer of excitement that lights up in his brown hues tell you that he doesn’t mind explaining at all. In fact,  he’s rather excited and enthusiastic as he begins to talk about this concept of having personas separate from yourself- like a version of yourself in a different reality or universe per se. “So, for a long time on my YouTube channel, my fanbase and I have made these alternate versions of myself. And for a while, they were around every now and again, but now, I’ve really brought them back and they’re becoming something much more than before. It’s always so much fun to make videos as these egos and see all the ideas my fans have about them. It’s the best,” He explains, the smile never leaving his face and the light never leaving his eyes. In return, you gain some of that light as your heart fills with joy from watching him shine while talking about this passion of his.
     “It sounds fun!” You beam, “What are these egos? If you don’t mind me asking.”
     Mark chuckles and shrugs, “Why would I mind?” He sighs happily and starts to name off his most popular egos, “There’s the two ‘main’ egos: Darkiplier and Wilford Warfstache. Then there’s a few others like Googleplier, the Host, Bim Trimmer, Ed Edgar, Dr. Iplier, and the Silver Shepard. There’s a few more, but those are the main ones.”
     You awe at the idea and begin to ponder to yourself how these alters came to be and you can’t help but admire the creativity of both Mark and his fanbase, “There’s so many…” And because of a curious thought, you laugh and look up at the sweetheart, “Out of your egos, which do you think would like me?”
     It’s a simple question but it hard Mark repeating that lovely yet loud laugh of his along with a faint, but visible, blush on his cheeks. With his free hand, he scratches the back of his neck and thinks over your question, “For your own sake, I wouldn’t say Dark or Wilford- maybe even Google. I think Bim Trimmer would like you a lot- probably find you cute,” he quickly offers a cheeky wink, “-though, you might have to compete with Matthias.”
     Laughing, the two of lean in closer to one another, “Is this yet another person I have to meet?”
     “Definitely.”
     “Marvelous!” You decide to shift and simply move to rest your head on his lap, his fingers soon find your hair and begin to mindlessly play with your locks, “So, why not Dark or Wilford?”
     Mark can’t help but shake his head, “Because they aren’t as nice as I am,” he looks up to the clouds and continues speaking, “Dark is practically everything I’m not. He’s manipulative, deceptive, and emotionless. So, if he liked you, it may mean good things for you. While with Wilford, he’s just insane,” he chuckles, “loves to kill and doesn’t see anything wrong with it all while being as bubbly and odd as a wacky reporter. With either ego, you wouldn’t be well off. Which is why it’s a good thing they’re just fictional.”
     For some reason, you an interest in these egos and make a mental note to ask him more about them later on.
      “Jack has one too,” Mark interrupts your thoughts though your eyes light up as you look up at him.
     “Really? Oh we can call him later, right? I’d love to hear about his, as well!” You chime, already wondering about the possibilities of what his egos may include.
     “Course! And until we can, you can always Skype or text him if you want- Signe too.” Mark points out and your love for your Danish friend rekindles and a new excitement bubbles up in your mind at the hope of talking to her soon.
     “Absolutely! I’ve missed them so much.”
     “More than me?”
     You roll yours eyes and smile up at the doof above you, “Hardly, you goofball.”
     “Good, otherwise I wouldn’t buy you anymore slushees.” How dare he! Threatening so significant in your life? What gives himi the right to take away your frozen splendor? Obviously, he sees the shock on your face and bursts into laughter, “Why do you look so offended?”
     “Because it’s my chilled haven!” You explain, trying to hold back the smile on your lips and act serious.
     “I swear, you’re the most passionate person about slushees that I’ve ever met,” Mark raises his brows, amazed by your love for slushees. If you love him half as much as you love those slushees, he thinks that you’d be going all ‘Yandere-chan’ on his ass.
     “Says the guy who almost instantly asked me to cook for him when I came back after months of being away,” You watch as Mark opens his mouth to try and defend himself but then closes it realizing you caught him in a corner, eyes hiding from your own, he chuckles lowly at his own love for very specific food- mainly being anything cooked by you. “Truce?”
     “Truce.”
     Everything is just about packed up into the car as the sun begin to sets on this Californian day. The orange sky mixes in with the clouds to create floating, fluffy forms along the skyline, the rays of the sun give their last effort and shine brightly as they descend, causing trees and bushes to become a silhouette against the plains. Sunsets were something you always found yourself missing when you were back home, as there are no sunsets or sunrises. There are only changes of the blue in the sky- though every now and again the yellow light beams through the clouds and casts in a beautiful and soft light into your world. But here, in the realm of Dreamers, a sunrise or sunset surpasses those short moments in your world every time.
     Mark catches you in your daze and the corners of his lips turn up into a gentle smile, adoring the way you seem to lose yourself in the beauty of nature. Ever since you came into his life, you seemed to do that. And to be completely honest, he finds it unbelievably cute. To be so intuned with nature and being able to take time to simply watch it, he admires that about you. YouTube has made it a bit harder to do that, yet with you, he remembers how to. He may never say it, but Mark’s thankful for that.
     A breath passes his lips as he approaches you and rests his hands on the trunk of his car as he leans against, shifting his weight onto his right leg. “Y’know, it’s almost as radiant as yourself.”
     The little giggle that escapes you warms his heart, the way your face lights up with both embarrassment and pure happiness only adds to that. No matter how cheesy his lines may be, you always laugh- whether it’s because they’re good or just goofy, he isn’t quite sure, though he thinks it may be the latter. “Back at it with the pick-up lines, huh?”
     “What can I say? I’m just that smooth.”
     “You mean you’re just that dorky.”
     “Eh, tomato, tomato, amiright? Besides, you like them.”
     “Regretfully, I do like a few.”
     “And that’s why they’re worth it, if I can have you laugh and like at least a few of them, my mission will be complete,” Mark admits, which earns him a swift kiss on the cheek, rendering him speechless for a moment due to being overjoyed.
     “I think it’s already complete, Markimoo.” He looks over and while you’re still facing the sunset, you sneak a glance from the corner of your eye and for he sees such felicity in those spectacular orbs of yours. Mark wraps an arm around you and pulls you closer to him, which to happily oblige by, and then places a sweet kiss atop your head.
     “Maybe the first part, but I’ve still got a lot in store for you, chickadee. Just you wait.”

ngl as someone who has social anxiety and autism, is terrible at putting my feelings into speech, never feels the need to join in conversations, and hates it when people are forcefully affectionate towards me, jotaro is the most relatable jojo to me and i really identify with him even though he was a shitty dad and an asshole towards his mom. it makes me sad that opinions of him on tumblr are mostly either "omg so hot kyaaa date me jotaro-kun!" or "die you stale piece of bread"
(cont.) like, i know a lot of the jotaro hate blogs’ posts are meant to be jokes, but it still feels like yall are hating him for not being expressive enough and just wanting people to leave him alone, and it kinda hurts bc people i know have called me boring for those exact reasons?? sorry for venting in your inbox tho
hey, anon. the short answer we’d usually give would probablybe something along the lines of, ‘we don’t hate that jotaro is antisocial, it’scause he’s rude and overglorified, blah blah’, but I don’t feel like thataddresses this properly. these asks are respectful and mature, so they’ll be answered in the same fashion.
read more under the cut.
I can’t say that I know what it’s like to be in your shoes,but I do relate to jotaro for similar reasons; I have depression, anxiety, and(thankfully steadily improving) borderline personality disorder. but eventhough I understand his emotional suppression and outbursts, I still can’t letit pass when I’m seeing real people excuse him and even glorify him for thesethings that I personally know do nothing but cause harm. it’s scary that thereare people out there who think unchecked self-destruction and outwardaggression are desirable traits, and unfortunately, jotaro’s character just encourages them. it’s like they don’t understand that people who do harmful things like jotaro does need to at least try to improve foreveryone’s sakes (even if they can’t, in the end, which really is okay), especially as they matureand have families. but as we’ve mentioned many times, jotaro doesn’t try and it’slike nobody aside from a select few ‘haters’ want him to.
I understand that even if jotaro was written as allistic,seeing people hate him for traits that you see in yourself and can’t change hurts – trust me, assomeone who projects onto another one of the crusaders, I know. but jotaro hasa lot more flaws than what you’ve mentioned, and those are the real things we don’tlike about him. as a character, he’s handled incredibly poorly. he’s purposelyrude (he admits to it at the beginning of stardust crusaders (in the manga at least)), his problems areseen in the wrong kind of positive light (not as issues that are acknowledgedand accepted, but as desirable and cool traits, which they are NOT), and hejust lacks respect. araki’s tendency to direct his abuse solely towards womenwho just swoon and go “yes sir~” in response is something that all of us modsalso find disgusting and frankly not funny at all, but these things are notjotaro’s fault. it’s just easier for us to direct these frustrations at afictional character rather than an actual, living person.
of course, that’s not to say that he as a person is okay. he shows time and time again that he doesn’t care about who he’s hurt and the things he’s done wrong (as an adult - we can’t really hold him accountable for his actions in sdc since he was a kid in a scary situation). this is especially painful when he’s doing it to a wife and daughter that he chose to have, such as when jolyne explains calmly that she can’t forgive him for all the emotional pain he caused her and he doesn’t say “i’m sorry” or even “I get it”, he just says that he’s disappointed in her for being upset. I understand that it can be hard to say what you mean in that kind of situation, but it seems like he’s implying that he’s not the one in the wrong, which just isn’t something he’s in the position to be doing.
in short, there’s unfortunately a lot more wrong with jotaro(and particularly how he’s written) than what you brought up. he had greatpotential, but it was all thrown away by araki and the fanbase, who justdecided that he was perfect with all his destructive flaws and never needed toget better whatsoever. as someone who’s dealt and is still dealing with recovery,it’s disheartening to watch. I hope you can understand what I’m getting at, butagain. I just want to let you know that the reasons why we, at least, hate jotarohas very little to do with the traits you brought up and that all of the mods sincerely hopeyou won’t take the hate personally.
I really hope you have a nice day, anon.

my second Big and Experimental Realistic-Type Portrait can be considered ‘finished’ at this point and now is when i wonder..... 
first of all... am i happy with how they turned out? of course i am. but also my crazy brain is like, this is childs play and you will probably look back on them in 1 year and think wow those sucked!! so the question is, do i post them anywhere? twitter probably no, even though more people i know use twitter on the daily and will probably see them. do i want people to see them? kind of, because i spent a whole evening drawing each of them...so i feel like i need some o that sweet ol Instant Gratification And Validation B) 
But also im SO SHY. so, im like, idk if they should go on twitter where all my irl friends and art school friends and Everyone lives. Everyone meaning like, the imaginary people who i imagine would look at them and snicker like, “wtf is up with that ear she drew. Hello? That’s childs play.” (im insecure about some of it. but not actually the ears. i dont want to reveal what parts of the paintings im insecure about because then people wont unsee them. hahaha) also on twitter theres not enough room to explain what they are. (but do they even need an explanation???)
do i put em on tumbly? for some reason the businessman in me says theyre more likely to get ‘stolen’ on here, for some reason, even though, who in their right mind would want to steal them. i don’t know.  Also i have this ridiculous fear that if theyre GOOD pieces of art, which i kind of am a fool not to say they are, then ppl on here are more likely to see them and feel shitty because “WHY CANT I DO THAT!!!” [[PEOPLE. I just spent hours pulling out my hair and years studying how to draw the figure. so like...well anyway i digress]]
the Businessman Businessman in me says, you really should have your own website by now, and these would go nicely on there. to that i say, that’s a lot of work!!!!! and i dont know how to code!!! psshh
so the point im trying to make is, i made some pretty cool portraits of characters for a thing that is SO OBSCURE that the fanbase is /probably/ under 10 people, and on one hand i want to post them somewhere to get some ‘likes’ on the internet for my hard work... on the other hand im shy and embarrassed that i even spent all that time on work that no one commissioned me to do, (i just decided “let me spend some grueling hours painting some boys!!!!”).... SO, they are just gonna stay here on their lonesome in my computey, and may never see social media!!! haha!!!
idk. if you bothered to read this, thanks for reading my over-thinkings and ramblings, yall
