#i should just write a fic shouldn't i

[careful-wish]

I know that Eddie had to die bc plot reasons yada yada

But they could have done that in season 5. We had so many deaths deaths in 4 (tho Max did end up living). The stakes are higher in season 5 and having a beloved character die halfway through would have had such an emotional impact

But also Eddie and Argyle not being included in season 5 with the other older kids feel like a joke, especially Argyle.

Nancy is the only one of the older teens (now young adults) to have a real close friendship with someone (Barb). Could probably argue Eddie too bc of Gareth, Jeff, and that other guy in Hellfire but they're younger than him so Idk how long they've been friends or how close they actually are.

In s4, though it's through super unlikely circumstances, Eddie does develop friendships with Steve, Nancy, and Robin. Probably, he already has had some interaction with Robin and Jonathan in the past due to the fact all three were considered weirdos or freaks (Jonathan was The School Freak(tm)) but he had no interaction with Jonathan this season.

Jonathan after being apart from Nancy for a few months then meets Argyle and they become pretty close mates, weed aside. Jonathan finally has someone he can talk to and open up to, and you can tell Argyle genuinely does care for Jonathan and is a LITERAL ride-or-die for him.

Why, WHY did they take Eddie and Argyle away? Yeah, we get the monster-hunting trio back in s5 along with Robin and Vickie in the group, but why'd they take Argyle away? He is also wanted by the government and knows everything. We're just going back to Jonathan having no friends, Nancy really having to confront what happened to Barb, and only Steve having a best mate? Why does Steve get to keep his best friend and Jonathan doesn't?

Also, the group would have been a little bigger than the Party but the dynamics and just absolute chaos would have been amazing.

Steve realising he is absolutely outnumbered by nerds and that he is not the leader, that role goes to Nancy and her babygurl Jonathan.

Vickie being introduced in a group that has several very loud ppl (Steve, Argyle, Robin), joins them immediately and Jonathan goes insane bc the four chatter like kookaburras at three am.

Nancy insisting they need to be discreet and Argyle explaining that while yeah, having an all black van would be cool but bad guys have those too and they would blend in better with a pizza van bc "Who would question the pizza man, Wheeler?"

Eddie secretly having tons of respect for Jonathan and nearly falls over himself trying to make up for the fact he tried to push another guy at Jonathan's girlfriend. Also develops similar respect for Nancy and feels guilty after seeing how happy Nancy is with Jonathan, and also realising it was never his, Robin, Steve, or anyone else's decision what Nancy does or who she wants to be with, it's all her.

Vickie learning about everything but still not knowing the kids very well and fellow newcomer Argyle is like "Idk about the others but Little Byers and Wheelie-boy are good, and of course our amazing super-powered little friend"

Steve discreetly being a terrible wingman for Robin without accidentally outing her. She comes out to Nancy first, then Argyle on accident after they have a weed sesh ("You're good, Batman's sidekick, boobies are great"), and of course ends up with Vickie.

Mike being the one of the Party Vickie ends up bonding with the most, mainly so they can make fun of Steve together but also other reasons

Anyway, we were robbed of these seven chaos nerds being a group together.

And if Eddie were to die halfway through, the turmoil. Dies similar to s4, Dustin is there, but it not only affects Dustin and Hellfire, but the other six he'd started becoming close with.

Continuing the JJK posting: Gojo is such a mystifying character.

Action show where swinging out the gate you introduce a character who is so incredibly powerful you then have to, before every fight, establish why Gojo can't just show up and fix the problem in seconds. His existence weakens the stakes of everything. The rest of the show you are backflipping ridding yourself of him. He jobs two major bad guys off the gate and every subsequent extensive fight with them feels like cleaning up his leftovers. Put him in a box, he's ruining the game balance. So absolutely broken. As a writer it makes your job so difficult, but it's also the entire point of him. "Hey I want to write the single most badass character of all time who can do the most insane shit but I will also engage with that", rock on king.

I think he's most interesting when understood as somebody who is fundamentally alien and removed from ordinary human thought processes. In his world there is absolutely nothing he cannot do, and the thought 'maybe I can't do something' just doesn't occur to him. He is capable of doing whatever he wants and of killing anybody who tries to stop him from doing what he wants. If he is not doing something, it is because he does not want to do it. If he wants to do something (kill all of his superiors) and he's not doing it, it's because he doesn't think it's the most effective route towards what he has decided to do. I think this informs the majority of his actions (and, importantly, what he doesn't do)(murder). I think he's reasoned out that you should have a general reason to do things, and it feels like sheer luck that he places value and meaning in human life, and as such you shouldn't kill them without a strong reason. Watching the flashback arc, if I hadn't seen a) JJK and b) Naruto and you asked me which shitty teen became a law abiding school teacher and which became a mass murderer I would have guessed the wrong ones.

Anyway, the way I like to think of him, he's a raging narcissist with a god complex to match. Horrifically, he's actually a good teacher, but he is also a teacher as an ego/'raising my child army' thing. He would be the kind of mother who is a good mother but lowkey had kids also as an ego/unconditional love/lots of attention/'surely my child will worship me' thing. Gets randomly into new hobbies, obsesses over them, gorges himself on the novelty factor, before dropping them in a week once he gets too good at them. Rinse and repeat. The only hobby that does not eventually grow boring is annoying people, so it's his only hobby. Geto told him age 15 that he'll never have any friends if he keeps on casually reminding people that they live on his sufferance, so he developed another back-up hobby more conducive for friendship of helping people forget that they live on his sufferance. This has convinced him that he's a god of subterfuge, intrigue, and trickery. Does eat women out, but is convinced that this makes him God's gift to women, and is actually pretty terrible in bed because his partner's desires never even occur to him. Is convinced he's as good at sex as he is everything else. Sex is actually the one thing he's bad at, but he's not ready to hear that.

In S1 he overall left me with the general impression that his entire idea of how high school worked was sourced from anime, and as such decided that being a teacher involved nothing but field trips, sports games, beach episodes, sports festivals, etc. Did not know how the classroom component worked so he skips it. Jossed, but also left me convinced that it would be very funny if he was an immortal 150-whatever years old and had founded the high school himself out of, you guessed it, an ego thing, and never once properly learned how high schools worked and just arbitrarily made his own aging students the new principals so he could continue engaging in training the kids who are too Misfit (TM) to get apprenticeships and living his fun slice of life anime life and raising a child army of kids who will worship him any day now. Annnyyyy day now. Any day now.

#jujutsu kaisen #jjk #gojo satoru #jjk gojo #jujutsu gojo #my posts #this makes it sound as if i hate him and think he's a terrible person #to be clear i think he's great and i just find characters most interesting when theyre terrible #watching the show i was just generally waiting for it to follow up on his established teenage homicidality #explain why and when he stopped being two thin hairs from murdering everyone he disliked #but they didn't so i have to suppose he's just chilled out a little #fic authors arent going far enough with him. i dont think his brain should resemble a human persons. #the 'i am above humanity' thing shouldn't be an angst thing it should be a factor of his psychology #thank you dora for stealth co-writing this post love you #might write the immortal thing might not. writing such a weird POV does sound fun to me though; id like to do it #itll either be very easy or very very hard #it feels like genuine straight-up luck that gojo's an active good guy. liike what.

sooooo... *twirls her hair* how many asks should i send until kuwagami art. jk as well. the real question will be: does it happen often that someone else’s art inspires you? in fandom spaces specifically

well you see it’s like a loyalty card program, every 10 asks or so you get a complimentary kuwagami

just kidding you can just breathe in my direction and I’ll be tempted to draw them. kuwagami blast! (you've caught me on a... just okay art day lol)

(people still like kabedons, right?)

anyway for my actual answer: in terms of direct inspiration, it doesn't really happen much? the last two times i did art directly based on someone else's work is probably this one from this fic, and also that time i drew art of someone else's judgment au. oh! and there's that moriohpsycho art based on this comic! (filthyguts' work is so very. hgngngghh. very good.) nothing else really comes to mind, and when i think of the other things i've been into recently there hasn't been as much opportunity for that to happen...

flex and herds = strong fixation but lmao. almost nobody else made stuff about them. nobody is surprised umineko = surprisingly i don't read much umineko fanfiction? and in terms of illustration, i certainly picked up imagery and indirect inspiration but nothing concrete enough for me to give an example... now that i think about it, i did once draw andromalius from redaction/sunny, but that was years ago, and also mostly because i was acquainted with the writer. ...i don't have that artwork on hand right now death note = didn't really get involved with the fandom + i enjoyed my own ideas well enough! ...i can't recall if i drew long-hair-L art before or after seeing other artists do it. and as for everything else the same kind of reasoning applies. didn't really get involved with the fandom or wasn't really compelled to make art in response to stuff i saw, or i just don't remember anymore.

buuuuuuut if we're opening this up to just... pulling ideas from other people? then yeah, all the time, though that kind of goes without saying when you have a creative hobby. ...it's probably going to be hard to come up with examples of this since it's more ambiguous.

there's uhhhhhh... kuwana listens to nickelback which was a @/four-white-trees invention, wasn't it? (EDIT: and @/overdevelopedglasses!) (not tagging in this post so he doesn't feel obligated to read my big ass ask responses 💀) as of writing this, it's not posted but i did end up making kuwagami art based on a nickelback song so. yknow. there's that LMAO

for sawashiro and arakawa, i do sometimes go reference @/todayisafridaynight 's art to help me with my own. ("how did he draw this part of the suit? oh, like that huh? hmm" <- this kind of thing)

and um. i'm not trying to pander to you (at least not this time), but genuinely it's one of the few examples that come to mind at this moment. but when i was writing my first kuwagami fic, i could feel the influence of the ever-changing on my brain... was turning over some of your ideas there...

you remember this? (you even pointed it out in your comment on my fic, and i should've said something then, but whatever i'm saying it now)

that was absolutely because of this

(obligatory poke at anybody else reading this post that you can read passthroughtime's fic here.)

so, um. yeah. not really sure what else to add to that. pretty self evident i think. (i'm always talking about the ever-changing but i don't think i can overstate the impression it left on me at the time)

anyhow there aren't really any other examples off the top of my head! these are all recent examples so they're not so difficult to recall, but there are probably others i've forgotten...

#jitxt #started writing this unsure if i could give many examples and i ended up with more than i expected. nice! #sunny is a very good piece of umineko writing and i should reread it with the author's notes toggled on. and also read redaction #“shouldn't you have read redaction first” n-no. shut up! (besides i think renall said it was fine) #nobody remind me of that 20k note post that's just an uncredited screenshot of sunny. it'll piss me off #as cosmic balance i ought to shill sunny as much as possible #anyway uhhhhhh. the everchanging. #i am awful about receiving compliments (i never know how to respond aside from a rehearsed “thank you”) but i sure am great at giving them! #apologies if i'm laying it on too thick but #1. i am being truthful and #2. i figure it's reparations for all the time i spent as a lurker on the kuwagami ao3 tag #the explosion in my brain when i realised that “the nice person who leaves lots of tags on my kuwagami art” #and “the person who wrote that REALLY FUCKING GOOD FIC” were one and the same. crazy. and now we are mutuals ❤ #it is a little funny thinking of when i'd read your and four-white-trees' work before meeting you #real life foreshadowing for me meeting you both.... #i still have these discord messages of me telling a friend about both your works #basically: (reading an update to the everchanging) wow that was depressing (reading a joke in four-white-trees' fic) nevermind i'm good now #i ought to reread the everchanging and take detailed notes on all the parts i like #just so you know your impact on my brain lol #kuwana calling yagami a pretty boy and meaning it sincerely oh my GOD. rewired my brain

Gonna let myself be negative for a moment here but once I saw a post that wondered wtf was up with the jjk fandom being the embodiment of daddy issues. And whenever I try to read jjk fics on this hellsite I'm instantaneously reminded of that, just smacked in the face with fics that exemplify that sentiment. Like honeybun not to kinkshame but can I please wiggle past your daddy kink to try and find some fluff here?

#Like I hate coquette stuff hate it and I can't take three steps into that tag without finding that shit #And then after that I gotta get past the baby trapping and bimbo fics to find one crumb of fluff #We shouldn't kink shame but we should all think about where our kinks come from #Rambles #Personal #And if you think “just write your own stuff” I do but still #but as I usually joke maybe I'm not fatherless enough to get it #I got a good relationship with my dad

hey so do you think wtv keiko had to deal with growing up with yusuke could be considered a type of parentification

#god chapters where barely anything happens except a character's realization about things can be hard ... #im writing another keiko pov chapter and it's hard because well!! #keiko was never really a main focus in the series and as time goes on she gets even less of a focus so i have to fill in these spots #in her personality and views that aren't really explored. im taking a lot of liberties lets say #and idek if it's gonna read as in character cos of that #anyway im tryna say that like. pre series keiko was basically this presence in yusuke's life and he saw her as a pain but he cared #she was there to scold him and cajole him into going to his classes and she was his only friend #now we know atsuko was negligent and idk how involved the yukimuras were in his life but i feel like keiko #whether directly or indirectly was given this duty like you have to keep him outta trouble #you're smart you're mature he needs someone like you. this responsibility just kind of put on her before she can understand the weight of i #and she can't really comprehend that weight until it's abruptly taken from her. yusuke dies and there's no one to shepherd #i feel like keiko should get to be mad about this. this realization of the nature of their dynamic. keiko planning things around yusuke #who's never done that in his life. not because he's purposely being thoughtless but bc he was never the one to have to plan #to think about what their future looks like. he just kinda drifted along and keiko tried to do damage control. it wasn't fair #yusuke is keeping secrets from her she is scared of high school and that he'll die again without her knowing why and it's unfair #so she should get to be mad also because girls getting to be mad is one of my favorite things 👍🏼 #the realization that yusuke won't be lost without her so she shouldn't hinge her life on the expectation that he will be #she worries about yusuke a lot i think. especially after he comes back from the dead. and i think kuwa's presence would help ease that #dread in her heart. it doesn't have to be just me. there's someone who can be there with him always and it doesn't have to be me #the guilty relief of not having to be the sacrifice. but kuwa doesn't mind so maybe it's okay this way #idk just rambles about my fic while i puzzle out how to word it #character analysis #yukimura keiko #yu yu hakusho

[personal and vaguely unnecessary whining underneath, just a bunch of undigisted and personal thoughts about my problems with Creation and Art that mostly just concern myself, but here they are anyway woooo!!!!]

feeling some kind of way about having to concede my artistic calling truly is in fanwork, but, yeah. all of my creative energy really tends towards fanwork, and like. not even the popular kind really, but the long, cerebral, pretentious kind of fanwork that is impossibly costly to produce yet comes with an inherently very limited audience at the end of the road. but every time I try to do something else, something "original", I get frustrated and I feel like I have nothing to say, or that what I have to say isn't really worth saying/that I'm only kind of doing this out of fear of being perceived as illegitimate rather than because of actual passion. I have original ideas, but I don't even really like most of them. it's weird, to have your inner creative fire being so intricately connected to something you will never have legal control over, something you can't really show off/take actual pride in, and something that is, by and large, decried as a waste of talent or time or proper artistic merit.

but yeah, it's the shape of my brain. it's what it is. I'm just not sure how to connect this reality to the rest of my creative/career frustrations. weird place to be, don't love that my brain chose to be like this honestly.

#thoughts #personal #I have spent my entire youth being criticized because of my enthusiasm for fanwork instead of proper creation you could gain accolades for #granted I shouldn't have gotten that kind of pressure before I was even age 10 #but #yeah I know having a brain made for original work doesnt automatically mean you gain recognition and respect #but fanwork is just. not the way to go. #there's a ton of people I know who have a latent condescencion towards me because I write fanwork #in a given style that is pretty hard to parse through #I indeed do refuse to prioritize digestibility and clarity #but I do that in fandom instead of in lit fic!!! because I'm stupid!! my brain is dumb!!! #but yeah I don't know what to tell you all my best and most audacious work is fanwork #it is what it is and I don't think it will change #and I don't think fanwork is shameful or should be considered lesser #why should it be??? #it holds the potential of sitting at the crossroad of deep-cut critique + admiration and love + creative experimentation #in a medium that is deeply entranched within our current era of media consumption and therefore I would argue is inherent commentary #also I wrote for IPs for work and what I did there was much dumber than what I might have written on my own #anyway weird thoughts and weird question marks for my future as the industry is slowly falling apart around me #might delete later but I just. mood post. feeling weird. #deflated professionnally and endlessly energized outside of that even though both are two sides of the same kind of work #a mood for weird and uncertain times I guess

god gave me an easily distracted mind because he knew i’d be far too powerful if he didn’t

if i could focus and finish my wips like i want to, it’d be over for y’all. and we just can’t have that



#✮cat’s rants #fr tho i would have a lovely fic library if i finished my wips. but it's like my brain shuts down the moment i start to write #no matter how much i want to i can't keep focused. im out here taking an hour to write 500 words when really that should take me 20 minutes #especially if i know EXACTLY what i'm gonna write like come on you just have to type out the words in your head it shouldn't be that hard🫠 #you know the distractible podcast? that’s my brain 24/7 lmao #anyway choso drabble coming soon lol #writeblr #writers block #writer problems #procrastination is a bitch #writing is hard

[woulddieforloki]

I kind of want to write a fic where Odin is about to banish Thor and Loki's watching it go down and the guilt is eating at him and right before Thor gets yeeted through the Bifrost, Loki yells, "IT WAS ME!" and, because that's actually words (and interesting words at that), Odin actually stops what he's doing to listen instead of just yelling a keyboard smash out loud, and Loki explains that he manipulated Thor into attacking Jotunheim, but it was never supposed to get that far and he's very sorry and it will never happen again. and he thinks he's mitigating the damage but instead Odin just banishes him instead (and he'd banish Thor too but he needs someone to take the throne and tbh what would it say about him as a dad if he has to banish all three of his kids?)

so then Loki ends up getting hit by Jane's car, except he's not an idiot so he doesn't run around screaming at the sky about being hammered and Darcy never has to taze him so he never ends up in the hospital so they're off to a good start already.

and they get to talking (and they're all very confused and operating under completely different understandings of the situation) and Loki figures out he's in Midgard entirely because they don't know what the Nine Realms are and Midgard is the only realm stupid enough not to know that. Jane mentions that they're scientists and Loki just kinda scoffs at that because scientists on Midgard are like childrens' tutors in Asgard, and Jane is equally offended and impressed.

and I choose to think that Odin never takes Loki's magic away the way he did to Thor's because he can't take it away. if he could, he would've done that before they threw him in the dungeon in TDW. so Loki still has his magic so it's pretty easy to convince them that he's a god (and honestly they're more convinced than he is because he just found out that he might possibly be Jotun?)

so they end up taking Loki with them (against Selvig's better judgment) because he sounds like a know-it-all and he ends up pretty much being a know-it-all so that works well for Jane. and actually it kinda maybe works too well? because she starts to fall in love with him and surprise, it's a Lokane fic and he starts to fall for her and they have babies and live happily ever after!

no jk idk what would happen but I'm thinking Mjolnir would still be out there so maybe Loki would go to check it out and he'd probably have better luck with it because he's magic so it's pretty easy to get everyone out of his way but he's definitely not worthy so he can't wield it but it does get them both tangled up with SHIELD probably?

idk apparently I can only thing of Lokane fic ideas if they have no ending so that's all I got lmao

#it feels poetic tbh that my first lokane fic was in the TVA where we last saw Loki #and that this second Lokane fic would be in Thor where we first saw Loki #(and also that the other fic i have with them (platonically) is after Thor 4 where we last see Jane) #i honestly might write this #i shouldn't like if I'm gonna start something new it should be my Loki/Wanda HYDRA fic because I've been thinking about it for months #but i kinda wanna write this one #maybe I'll just start it tonight and maybe write some tomorrow and then throw it in my folder of abandoned wips idk #lokane #also i must add that my other lokane fic also was just a beginning premise and no ending (although i do have one more chapter of it i need #to write and i just CAN'T so i have no excuse to not have one last chapter before i give up) #so this is very much a trend for me lmao #lokane fics are unfinishable i fear </3 #fic idea? #back on my bullshit

You know, I initially planned the Quidditch scene in my longfic partially because I thought it would be cool to see a match from a Beater's perspective (Sirius is a Beater in my longfic, mostly to humour James). Then when I finally got around to writing The Quidditch chapter, it became abundantly clear that - in the particular context that he's in - Sirius doesn't give a fuck about this match and, quite frankly, neither do I at this point.

#does anyone truly care about Quidditch or is it just an excuse for shirtless snogging in the changing room #and giving Harry more reasons to hate Draco in canon #it is such a non-sport after all #taking recommendations for fics that dive into Quidditch as a sport because that sounds cool but I violently realised I cannot write one #maybe I should give this scene to my Sports Friend for feedback but tbh I probably shouldn't subject him to this #harry potter #marauders #writing #also editing to add that writing about a sport in an engaging way seems inherently hard and writing about a team sport especially so #and I personally think it's understandable that Quidditch was written as a sport where everything hinges on 1 dude catching 1 ball #maybe they could have changed it for the movies a little though

While I really like Hanahaki Disease, usually one of my issues with the trope is that they never just get the surgery (or they take far too long to do so), because to me, probably after like two days, I'd run off to get it. I don't think I could justify the thought process of someone that wouldn't get the surgery very well - so I never really bothered to write a fic for it myself. But then I realised I knew a prime character that fits my criteria.

Zombieman. I could write Hanahaki Disease for Zombieman. He literally can't die - it wouldn't mean a thing to him not getting the surgery. (Does this remove some of the stakes involved in the trope or whatever? Perhaps...)

It's okay if the flowers cause him to have holes in his lungs! It'll heal over anyways! He coughs up blood? Just another day for him. If it gets too annoying for him, he could always just - you know, dig into his chest cavity and give the flowers a trim or something because it'll heal over.

I don't know much about flowers (or plants), but I wonder if it would be more plentiful since, uhm. They're growing on a dead body? Isn't it supposed to be like better for them or something since there's more nutrients or something?

I don't think Zombieman can age, so for as long as he lives, he'll always have a reminder. So long as he never lets go of his feelings or he never gets surgery.

This would probably be the only illness he could get in his body since I'd imagine for anything else, his regeneration could just take care of it, no fevers, cold, etc... but unrequited love? That's terminal. (Or in his case, it would be chronic?)

Anyways. Just thoughts. Maybe more if I get the time and willpower.

Do you think the Demon Bull Family will enter the plot again? I think a lot of parallels between MK and Red Son have come around this season and it'd be interesting to explore

Oh please share your Red Son and MK related thoughts with me! I'm not quite sure what you're talking about specifically, but of course the DBK - Wukong / Red Son - MK parallel is always fun.

I don't think the Demon Bull Family will ever be shoved out of the plot entirely, at the VERY least we'll get something like how they were integrated in s4, but with Wukong, Macaque, and DBK all being previous members of the brotherhood I hope we get to explore their relationship a bit more!

I hold onto my crumbs, and so I remember Wukong's little "I've honestly missed that guy" from Revenge of the Spider Queen, and maybe deep down I want that to be explored. It seems like we're going to get into why Wukong stayed up on flower fruit mountain for all that time, and part of that might involve why he sealed DBK away/his feelings on that whole situation. And honestly if DBK is involved, then Red Son is involved. Red Son's admiration for his father is very similar to the admiration MK has for Monkey King, so maybe there's something to be explored there!

#god I should get into fic writing #I've started doing a lot of new things in the lmk fandom so maybe I add that to my list! #Like before this year I hadn't ever written a theory post or any form of meta or done gif making or even edited a video #But now I've tried all those things and I'm having fun! #I haven't written a single fanfic in my life but I have done rp. So maybe I give it a shot! #A convo of Red Son sharing his experiences with his father and MK reflecting on his experiences with Monkey King would be. #So spicy like I'm into that #I think anything I'd write would be very different from what the lmk fandom usually sees and a lot more like the fic from the tdp fandom #but that's just this whole blog asfadsf #look someone out there had to catalog all of the insane writing they shove into this stupid lego show. And after all why not? #Why shouldn't I spend way too much of my free-time doing exactly that? #Why shouldn't I throw all of my crack ideas out there? #asks #lmk #lego monkie kid #lmk analysis #lmk speculation #ummm yeah sure #idk what to tag this post

do you think the people making "tumblr is going to poison the AIs lolol" just. don't know about the decade+ many hundreds of old writing blogs that were writing genuine short fiction and no longer have the ability to login / even know that this is happening to toggle the thing on their old blogs and so are about to have their words scraped in what will be a hugely valuable Get for programs that are actively trying to supplant creative pursuits through parsing the works of every creative they can find, good and bad, or

#like i know tumblr circles can be insular and most people associate rp with like #xreader fic written by very young people or Gimmick blogs but like #there is so much Genuine fiction on this website. #so so so many abandoned/lost/archived blogs #full of Actual writing #this is very sad. like i know some of you are just mad about your data (and you should be! not saying you shouldn't!) but also #this is not just about weird text posts #this is about the creative writing these emulators are (so far poorly) trying to recreate #and in that context there is not really a such thing as bad data (barring something like nightshade) and there is #whether you make sabotage sideblogs or not #such an absolutely MASSIVE amount of actual genuine creative writing on this website #like whatever number you are thinking of. double it. triple it. #there are SO many like. 'ghost' blogs #and urls that have been -blog appended because they've been abandoned since 2012 #there is. SO. much. writing. on this website #and so much of it will go completely unprotected because those blogs aren't actually occupied. #this fuckin sucks dude #like and i mean i don't mean to be like. #.... #i also know that literally every other website except maybe ao3 is doing this so it's not like. there was anywhere else for it to go #but it still sucks you know? #i dunno. i like my hole in the wall website. also this sucks.

Shoutout to the time a suibaiter got mad at me for writing a fic about suicide like "I HOPE YOU REALIZE THAT TRAUMATIZING SHIT REAL PEOPLE GO THROUGH ISN'T ANGST FOR YOUR GMOD FANFICTION OR WHATEVER" (my good bitch i am literally also suicidal) and then vagueposted about my fic like "THE FANDOMIFICATION OF SUICIDE." You are literally a suibaiter who suibaits people because they draw Benrey as blue lmao

#it's literally so dumb and also pretty infuriating but i have a tendancy to focus on the funny #tis a coping mechanism #tw suicide #suicide #suicide tw #half tempted to rb this to my hlvrai account bc. i'm pretty sure people who follow me follow them but i don't wanna just call people out #i might. uhhh tell me if i should rb it over there #if you wanna know who it is dm me #DO NOT START A WITCH HUNT OR MAKE A CALLOUT POST i do NOT wanna get them mass harassed #cassie rambles #it's kinda funny to me that they got so mad over me writing about suicide in hlvrai #WHEN SUICIDE WAS CANONICALLY IN HLVRAI #GORDON LITERALLY TRIED TO KILL HIMSELF ON SCREEN LIKE. DID WE WATCH THE SAME SERIES #your silly gmod series is not that silly and i can make it less silly and if you wanna get mad at me for it go choke lol #curate your own experience and go to therapy <333 #ALSO THEY'RE A SUIBAITER. A SUIBAITER GETTING MAD AT ME FOR WRITING ABOUT SUICIDE. BRO. #like if this was like a kids show or something i can understand getting mad aboutit but like. #this is a series where the main villain's monologue is a five hundred word dick joke #it honestly would've been so fucking funny if they suibaited me over my suicide fic because i shouldn't be writing about suicide. imagine #also it wasn't like a treated suicide as a joke in that fic?? i was very explicitly ''hey this is not a good thing'' #please gain critical thinking and don't get angry abt suicide fic WHEN YOU ARE LITERALLY A SUIBAITER

fucking hilarious to me that Hayward has now been a part of creating not one but TWO separate gods and he did not think to mention his previous experience even once to his comrades-in-arms the second time around. head empty. literally just carnival music playing in there are all times.

#based solely on vibes it's probably Nirvana #Hayward is a Nirvana fan truth 2k22 #he WANTS to be a boomer but he's a sad Gen X little man #Carpenter is actually everything Hayward thinks he is and wants to be #Paige is too actually #which is why he's a little bit obsessed with both of them #(psychosexually) #(not that either of them would ever desire him carnally and also he'd probably be too afraid to ever make a move so that's a nonstarter) #(but the fact remains that I am *positive* he thinks about them driving away together in a squad car #and leaving him chained to the doors of the police station during an environmental catastrophe #and thinks 'it's weird that I liked that right? I probably shouldn't have been into that? #shouting about how I'd hunt them to the ends of the earth was probably like... tipping my hand a little? I should have played it cool. #dammit Hayward you always do this.' <-- content of Hayward's inner monologue livestreamed directly into my brain) #fuck I don't even have to write fic anymore I can just post the most deranged kink takes about TSV characters into the notes of siltposts #this is not a headcanon btw this is me seeing and perceiving the truth #there is just SO MUCH psychosexual weirdness to how both Paige and Carpenter interact with Hayward and I for one love it #Paige never explaining to her dad that Hayward is NOT her boyfriend lmfao #taking him to her farmhouse where she used to bring her exes #'i made you eggs' #people are not going to like this because no one wants shipping in this fandom and quite frankly it is great that we don't have that here #but you cannot erase the fact that Hayward's sole mode of interaction with other human beings seems to be: #'please bully me in a slightly kinky way' and nearly every character is just like 'ok can do <3' #Paige doesn't flirt-bully anybody else! Carpenter only does it to Hayward and Paige! the other people she bullies is totally platonic #Carpenter clearly bullies Faulkner with purely platonic affection and now even that is basically just for show #but I'm sure if she was in a room with Paige and Hayward she'd be flirt-bullying the absolute SHIT out of Hayward to impress Paige lol #fellas is it homoerotic to handcuff a guy and drive away together into the sunset #siltposting: after hours #siltposting #tsv spoilers #the silt verses spoilers
