Kaeya would love MCR’s Danger Days, i just know it

[salytierra]

Their epic love story starts like many of the greatest and most memorable tales do: with a dead fish.

Or: The obligatory A/B/O story where the Omega kicks ass, the government promotes injustice, parents are a pain in the ass, and the Alpha is part lizard. Oh! And don't forget the canon-compliant Deus Ex Machina, of course.

So, that’s been it for 2020. 

And now, the weather

I will be permanently removing myself from “Fandom”

Not that anybody cares but here’s the thing: I’m tired of the cycle. 

By cycle I mean: getting into something → getting really into that thing and following a bunch of people, discovering ships theories and niches → reading most of my new OTP’s AO3 → start noticing all the drama, discourse and nonsense on tumblr → start getting really annoyed yet spend a lot of time and energy writing and drawing for the fandom → wake up one day and my hyperfixation is over. I’m no longer interested in the thing, I don’t want to see it, I lost all my WIPs and my completed works no longer bring me pride and joy → I wish I hadn’t wasted so many time on this because it looks so utterly pointless now. → Start unfollowing people and fixing my dash → R·E·P·E·A·T

This has been happening more and more often. I’m 27 and have been doing this since I was 13. I used to last years in fandoms. Now I can barely manage to get interested into something for a couple months. And meanwhile I don’t do anything with myself. I don’t build a reputation or a “sub-career” or something I can show-off or make a name for myself with. Because I keep cycling. 

And it’s always, always toxic. All fandoms are toxic when you dive deep enough. It’s a bunch of people arguing about meaningless crap like it decides the meaning of their life. They look nice on the surface but I’ve been in many, even as just an observer, and I’ve seen the same tired old drama in each of them. It’s a deal on the nerves and takes the worst out of communities. 

It’s going to be hard because ADHD and Hyperfixation, but I’m gonna try to learn how to enjoy media like a normal person. 

And maybe write and draw porn for twitter/reddit if the artistic need strikes lol. At least that is absolutely timeless and universal. 

I don’t know what’s going to become of this blog just yet, I’m not gonna dispose of it like I did with my previous one, but I will do my best not to keep up diving into fandoms. 

Maybe just reblog art, memes and funny posts? Who knows. 

I’m too busy for it now anyway.

Some parting Recs:

- Genshin Impact is an awesome free game if u can’t afford the new Zelda.  - The Fire and Valor trilogy is a fantastic read/listen despite the crappy covers.  - This song.  - Whenever you’re sad look up “angry owls” on google images:

- And last but not least: take a break form tumblr. Seriously, do it. As often as you want because you are not obligated to be here or to cater to people here for free. Your mental health will thank you. 

#thank you for your attention #if you even got this far - congratulations #gods... I feel so old

Hello Kids!

I figured I should pop in to tell you I’m not dead. 

I’m just not really feeling the fandom lately. Maybe I’m getting older, as this seem to happen more often, or maybe it’s my ADHD meds doing some of their stuff...

I’ve also got a new full-time job now. It’s not that much, 8h and no overtime, but my eyes have grown des-accostumed to being glued to the computer screen for a full day, so now I’m avoiding close-up screens when I get out. But I’ve been writing just a bit here and there, might post it soon, might be a while. 

I hope everyone is doing fine. Remember to take care of yourself and don’t stress out over unimportant stuff, or the important stuff you have no power to change! :)

Your art is so beautiful! Wow the line art is just so perfect and you make them so expressive! I love the Zukka drawings! Totally floooooored thank you for blessing the internet with your gifts!!

OH MY GOD THANK YOU!!! ♥

You’re so kind! I’m happy that you liked them!! And sorry for answering late, I’m not much on tumblr these days. 

#awwwwww #nice people #really niceeeee!!! #vanillabutspicy

[salytierra]

I feel kinda down bc I’m not reading any atla fanfiction rn. Not only my subs, or my mutual’s works, but I’m not even making a dent in my read-later list. 

I’m reading a lot, but it’s for other fandoms. I just don’t feel like atla these days and I’m not writing anything either. It just doesn’t grab me. 

And I know I’m not obligated in any way to read anything, but... the thing is that I want to, I really want to. It’s just that I’m not in the right emotional state for that universe and characters in the present. So yeah... there it is.

Sokka: Do you remember when I called you dude and asked you to be my best homie forever? I meant it in a gay way too. 

Zuko: I know, you were down on one knee, proposing.

sokka: why are you looking at me like that, zuko?

toph: because he LIKES you

zuko: i don’t fucking like him

zuko: i fucking LOVE him

sokka:

toph:

zuko: did i say that out loud

#I'm sorry it's just... #what a pair of dumbasses xDD #zukka #atla

follow up to this 💖

zuko did, in fact, eventually Get It, and good times were had by all. despite the initial hiccup, sokka found the whole thing incredibly endearing and would revel in the ability to get a laugh out of their getting-together story every time he told it to someone in the future

#THIS IS SO CUTE OMG #zukka #atla

[salytierra]

concept: after the war ends, iroh is fire lord. azula is being treated, but zuko decides maybe he could use help too and starts therapy. it takes a few years, but he’s finally able to work through some stuff, and learns to let himself be more open and vulnerable. he confesses his feelings for sokka just to get the words out of his stomach, knowing full well it’s unrequited but being pretty calm and accepting of it, not even breaking a sweat or letting his smile falter when sokka, fully taken aback, says sorry, i don’t feel that way about you. their friendship doesn’t suffer. zuko feels much better after getting his feelings off his chest and is looking forward to a point where maybe he finds someone else to fall for, but the confession always kind of sticks in the back of sokka’s mind. cut to several years later, iroh is looking for an ambassador to send to the south pole to represent the fire nation, and asks zuko if he’d be interested. it doesn’t take much convincing. he and sokka spend practically every day working and spending time together, and zuko realizes just how little his feelings have changed over the years; still, he already told sokka how he felt once, he doesn’t feel the need to do so again. meanwhile sokka’s feelings are very quickly changing, but zuko hasn’t said anything and sokka is worried that he’s too late and missed his chance. it takes months and months, time sokka spends accidentally falling more in love, before he decides that the least he can do after zuko was so brave in confessing years ago is to be brave and confess back.
