#its all projection baby

[bleue-flora]

Wait... Dream was born on August 12, 1999 and Dream was arrested in the Disc Finale on January 20, 2021 soo... wait, wait, wait, that means he was only 21 when he was imprisoned for life in a small lava covered box!... Did I do that math right? 21?! Man was barely able to drink legally in the United States and they gave him a life sentence in a boiling cell with nothing but lava, raw potatoes, a clock, and some books?!... oh my god...

#sorry.... I just... give me a minute to process... I mean I knew we were close in age but I guess I never really thought about it #sometimes I forget it happened all the way back in 2021 and just... wow. #and Tommy would have been 16 so getting his driver's license in most states... The age gap is like that of my siblings and huh... #my brother can be a real prick... its a weird thought to imagine him getting through in prison just for messing with us... damn... #dreblr #c!dream #this is fine #don't mind me researching for my lastest maddening project..... i can't stop thinking about Dream being Sam's project....... #I'd blame my job but... let's be honest the prison arc lives rent free in my brain lol XD #dsmp #dsmp dream #dream smp #dreamwastaken #no one does it like c!dream #prison arc #pandora's vault #dishing up lore #kinda? I guess... #lore thoughts #ouch... I'm older than c!dream was in prison now... poor baby... :'(

wait speaking of getting isekia'd via truck, a couple weeks back me and a friend on were talking abt portal fantasy/isekai tropes (mostly bc i was infodumping abt rz again), and it made me think abt a fun concept for an ocverse. tho its possible similar things have been done obvs with just how inflated the genre is, just hear me out OK

story starts in the normal world, with a typical Nerdy Guy going about his daily life, expositing about how he feels bored and longs for adventure and magic, just like in all of his favorite media. as he's crossing the street, distracted by his mobile game, he doesn't notice The Truck(tm) coming straight towards him. except he's not hit by it- he's pushed out of the way in the last second, saved by a passing girl who gets hit in his place. this is who the story is about now.

mc gets sent to that sort of intermediary dimension that some isekai have, where she meets the Goddess Lady or whatever that was in charge of the whole isekai situation. goddess lady proceeds to freak out, because she nabbed the wrong person, and she's going to be in SO MUCH TROUBLE. she starts questioning the mc, only to find out that this kid has a good social life, does well in school, is in sports, and has barely ever played a video game. basically the opposite of the socially introverted, underachieving, repressed, genre-aware guy she was supposed to have reincarnated. for the sake of fulfilling somekinda hero prophesy or whatever. and the mc kinda bargains to be sent to the fantasy world anyway bc, well, its that or death i guess. so the two of them kinda have to team up to course-correct this mix-up.

mc is kinda given a list of tasks to do that basically mirror how a typical story like this Would Go, expected to fall in line with the tropes in order to achieve the ultimate goal, but kinda ends up failing at all of them... or not? failing backwards, maybe. doing it in a way different from how its meant to go- using the wrong formula, but somehow getting the right solution. while sort of continuing to question the insanity of the whole situation, and the nature of this whole fantasy world. just fucking up all the tropes.

but a layer i'd wanna add on top of all that is the fact that the hero prophesy (or whatever) called for a man. so upon arriving to this new world, the mc is basically put into a "gender swapped" body and... doesnt seem to mind. this isnt an uncommon isekai trope either, but i hardly see it tackled with much care to really explore whole Gender Thing beyond gags about the "mismatch" (which can be in poor taste) or the conclusion that "well because their Body is now this gender, their gender identity changes to match" which i feel is a pretty shallow and binary take-away to draw abt bodies and identity.

but i think there can be more to explore w the prospect if you actually wanna get into gender stuff. in this case, i'd particularly wanna get into the idea of imposter syndrome. the main character was not MEANT to be... the main character. seen as a phony fighting tooth and nail to meet expectations, and constantly fumbling. not a real hero, or a real man. but its meant to be an act anyway, so why does that bother her? it was like that back on earth too, trying as hard as possible to be the perfect girl. a good social life, does well in school, is in sports.... but that good girl thing always felt fake too. or desperate. what was she trying to prove? how long as this BEEN bothering her, actually? why does it feel easier to breathe in this body, despite everything? the way this whole act makes her happy is scary, because its fake isn't it? but wait, which part was fake? the before or after? is it all fake? isn't this all just a mistake?

was it really a mistake? who is more heroic; a guy too focused on a mobile game to pay attention to those around him, or the person who risked their life to save a stranger? but the hero prophesy was for a "man," right? what does that even mean?

#the end is all questions bc if i ever did anything w this i would want to explore them basically #i dont know if i ever WILL its mostly just a concept im throwing out there for rn. brainstorming #but i think it could be fun #the only other isekai/portal fantasy type ocverse i have is the one w the dream traveling ocs. i wanna get back to them also #so many small oc projects that ive posted abt very briefly but i have not forgotten abt any of them i still think abt it #same w this even if i never really elaborate more on it im sure the idea will stay in my head #its obviously very much in its first draft baby phase rn a lot of ironing out the creases to do if i did wanna follow up in some way #like again its basically just a concept i dont have concrete characters or worldbuilding or anything just ideas. thata all

Excuse me while I ramble about Nine and how he makes me sad when I think about him now because just how does he feel over Sonic bringing the entire fucking shatterverse armada on him because of course Sonic has that at his disposal. Even the goddamn Chaos Cuntcil alright, okey.(you read that wrong read it again)

So apparently everyone just knows this super-special little secret to making and keeping friends that no one ever told him about! Even other versions of himself! Fantastic that is!! Brilliant even!! Fucking amazing!!!

Hes just broken beyond repair like that, huh.

The only person that ever called him a friend wasn't even seeing him for him for great majority of their time spent together and after rejecting a literal paradise in making he brought his other friends(that sure is a lot of them!!) to beat him up and stop him keeping the one solace he ever had (I mean he is still very much destroying the shatterverse, he is doing that and is endangering everything in the process, but this is solely from Nine's perspective and see if he cares because no one cared about him ever, what are other people to him but an obstacle or an enemy)

Just how alone and hurt he is and probably even scared despite the power he now wields, he has true power for the first time in his life leave him alone!!! (Don't, actually. He needs a vibe check really badly, and than prefferably some genuine love and mint tea and healthy amount of isolation to deal withe evrythi g cuz booooi)

And while I previously made a silly little jab about him having unlimited power and only using it to create more robots, I get it!! No shit he's gonna fall back on the only thing that never failed, betrayed or turned his back on him and decided to gather the whole rest of the class to beat him.up!! His tech was the only thing that gave him enough strenght to stand up and say enough is enough and the only thing that probably gave him any semblance of happiness while everything and everyone else around wanted him dead.

Just like now.

Hes also the little guy ever, like he's so short he heads his tails to prop him up to reach tge panels in the eg HQ (I actually forgor the name of that place I'm sorry)

Nine man do you get it do you understand me do even fuckin

#sonic prime #THIS EDGY BABY RAAGH #ive written a novel on this fucker by this point #also no not projecting in the second paragraph at all nuh uh #ooooh the misery #everybody wants to be my enemy- #ignore this its 2am im being irresponsible with my sleeping schedule yet again #miles nine prower #nine the fox #sonic prime spoilers #silly brainworms

K listen I saw Avatar for the forth time last night and I noticed another few things. The big one for me is their use of bro and how different it is for each character. Neteyam only calls Lo’ak bro, his baby bro. That is his little brother and he loves him and that is his nickname for him. You cannot convince me that this doesn’t come somehow from Jake and Tommy and that those motherfuckers didn’t call each other bro. You also can’t convince me Lo’ak didn’t take his constant use of bro from his oh so secret love of Neteyam calling him bro. He calls only three people in the movie bro. He calls Neteyam bro, he calls Spider bro, and he calls Payakan bro. These are his brothers, guys, get the fuck on board with me. 

Neteyam, his big brother, the one who has called him baby bro probably as long as he could remember. Spider, his best friend, one of the only people who fully understands him and always supports him. And Payakan, his spirit brother, a fellow outcast who he connects with on such a deep level. He only calls him bro after their third meeting, when they have developed more of a bond. 

And Spider only calls Lo’ak bro, cause that is his brother. One of the only three people he considers family, and he knows to Lo’ak that is like his lil love language. I’m telling you there are real tears in my eyes. 

#bro (lovingly) #every time one of them says bro its in such a loving way you cannot convince me otherwise #might be projecting cause I only have brothers and male cousins #like 30 of them #and they all say bro and cuz all the time and it makes me feel so surrounded by family love #lo'ak sully #neteyam sully #spider socorro #miles spider socorro #payakan #avatar #avatar the way of water #neteyam: my baby bro! #lo'ak: shut up (don't) #melissa on avatar (cameron) #melissa og #melissa is an english major

Is anyone doing good in the family in the 29 years late au? Also who is still an active vigilante?

Kate and Renee are doing good they're both retired and living happily- but main family tho I mean everyone else is still very much an active vigilante everyone except Bruce they're all just trying to get through the day

#plotbunny-bundle #ask #im feeling pretty shitty today #so projection time baby #feel like i haven't really mentioned two bats #so lets rectify that now #duke is going through some trauma #he accidentally trapped himself in a time loop he got himself out but hes not using his powers anymore bc of it #damian actually had a big blow up with dick of all people #which is why damian stays away from blud and hasn't visited gotham unless its an emergency #(i dont know what the blow up was about yet but hey fun of making stories)

how rose pretends to prefer to dress versus the ‘cringe’ way she would actually prefer to dress

#the autism makes it so she cannot stand lace but she HAS to wear it for the Aesthetic #<- what no im not projecting what do you mean #rose lalonde #hsmeta #this isnt to say she doesnt like the first outfit because she absolutely does and she thinks it looks hot asf. its just the Performance #she hates the performance aspect of having to get dressed up all fancy in uncomfortable itchy clothing in order to be taken seriously #and it reminds her of shitty parties mom took her to #kanaya helps make her cute dresses in softer and more comfy fabrics bcuz that’s true love baby 💚💚💚

Hate how in every thread where someone asks for challenge ideas for pz most answers are just 'make it as hard as possible' I dont want to make a run with highest zombie and rarest loot settings, eternal winter, no guns or cars, take all negative traits or whatever! i want a goal other than just 'survive'

the problem isn't that it's too easy to survive, it's that i dont have a point to work towards and then it all feels sort of pointless...

I like challenges like 'get from one end of the map to the other' or 'collect all ingredients + the recipe magazine and make a pizza' collecting all versions of certain items is also fun, as well as giving your character a backstory and goal and rp

if anyone has fun ideas for goals what to do in pz, feel free to leave them in the notes :*

#there are some people who come up with fun ideas but the majority is just edgy gamerbros who suggest you just make it harder and thats all #i dont want to make it harder! i am very content with my sandbox baby settings thats not the problem! #i just want something to work toward not just sort of hole myself up in a safehouse and survive - thats boring #I like working on my base (and gathering specific tools/materials for it) thats cool i guess #i collect toys and plushies and other cute things (and decorate my house with them) #i find cars and farming boring so i havent gotten very far in the skill so i want to work on that more (problem is its boring... but im try #going to a specific place is cool too (driving is hell to me so its a challenge) #anyway fuck the edgelords! making things harder doesnt mean its more fun! #also playing with easier settings is fine and you dont need to make it super hard to prove how badass you are! #anyway im thinking thoughts #mine #project zomboid #pz

Twice stalking Darling at their daycare job, but some of the sharper kids notice him multiple times and he panics and says he's Darling's...uh...boyfriend! A SECRET boyfriend. So they can't tell Darling that he's here to check on them sometimes, ok?

Or maybe he gets Giran to get him through the background check so he can work there, and insist on doing it for free so they're extra happy to hire him. He's really good with the kids and the little ones love how silly he can be. Plus they crawl over him, pull him a million directions, and he can do all sorts of stuff on the playground thanks to his Quirk; everyone can have a Twice and he can cover other people's shifts! If Darling discovers he got the job to stalk them at first, the coworkers and Darling's boss would gently urge them to just get over it because he's working as a volunteer FOR FREE, and he is so useful.

The kids also love that he's basically like a kid himself sometimes. When he does pairing he's so good at it and can build rapport with them instantly, and he keeps humming the songs from daycare during League missions.

#yes this is me projecting about my own job and knowing Twice would have a lot of fun #he'd def be patient with the clients whenever they have meltdowns because he knows how that feels #and he studies their care plans intensely so he knows exactly what they need. its not like they all need a mask like him #also the babies would adore him and literall walk all over him #.bnha #.sillyshit #yandere bnha #.twice #yandere twice #hes dancing during circle time and tearing it the FUCK up lmao #Daycare Darling

It just all feels more pointless now. I think i lost some of the spirit. I dont know if its temporary or how to get it back

#found myself less passionate about my ocs and their stories and about making them real one day #but not in a good way #its not letting me go of my perfectionism or whatever instead its just like. whats the point. theyre not that good anyways #theyre as in the stories #im increasingly aware of the plot holes and the parts that are kind of held together with string in order to make the plot make sense and-- #--im not sure if anyone ever could get as passionate about them as i was? #especially since like. *i* dont feel as passionate abt them as i said. #my main baby my main oc project that i cherished and hoped to make real in some way now feels like i should keep it private. #the other one that i was hoping to make into my first long term project remains unfinished plot-wise and i dont feel motivated to work-- #--on it further #the one that i think has an alright plot that i could share is just kinda in the bg #and also i always felt like i was good at like...symbolism...metaphors...parallels...this kinda stuff #i felt like my stories were something you could dig into #now it feels like i overestimated them #and theyre actually painfully simple and just. idk. feels like theyre not that good #maybe its because i recently didnt have time to work on them? #and fell into a fandom that has a painfully not-deep story where i also often feel like other ppl in the community dont want me there #maybe i gotta get away from that lol #but it doesnt feel like its gonna help. idk what will. #all of this isnt giving me any relief its just making me feel empty and like i thought too greatly of myself #bcs i still want to Make things and stories and now i just feel like im lacking at that??
