inspired by the poll asking if you would tell your best friend if you were in love with them

#cuz a lot of ppl on that poll were like #'no way id be afraid of ruining the friendship' #but idk man ive told friends i had a crush on them #and got rejected and like #we just. continued being friends like normal. nothing changed #except they would sometimes tease me about my crush haha #but it wasnt a big deal and didnt effect our friendship #and also getting rejected helps me get over an unrequited crush #so it eventually faded after being told theyre not interested #and we were just best friends still #nbd! #poll

had a conversation with my mom and now i'm curious

If unsure, go grab yourself a pencil and compare to these examples:

"Correct" ways to hold a pencil:

(if you didn't know there were names for these, yea I had no idea either until I started looking stuff up lmao)

"Wrong" ways to hold a pencil:

I'm mostly curious as someone who has always held her pencil wrong. No matter what teachers/my mom ever did to try and teach me (pencil grips, elastic bands, etc) it just never worked. I wanna know how universal this experience is hdKJH

(rb for sample size, etc etc, the usual)

#clamtalk #polls #in my case it probably has to do with the joint hypermobility that my mom wasn't aware I had until too late to accommodate it #So i've always held my pencil in an index grip (or something somewhat like it; my index finger is higher up on the pencil than it should be #Also I put correct/wrong in quotes because like. While yes you could argue inherently there is a 'correct' vs. 'incorrect' way #regarding how much strain an incorrect grip can put on one's hands #I have never personally had issue with how i hold my pencil even if 'wrong.' The only problem I had was when my mom was trying #to force me to change it to hold it 'right.' Because that shit hurt my hands! #Once again probably due to the hypermobility! #So I dunno. Infinite Nuance etc

As we approach the next arc in the story, an outfit change is now on the horizon! The question is, what are our lads going to wear?

(Please also vote in the Lan Wangji poll!)

I am limited in the level of detail that I can add. #but man oh man....this is already a huge step up from where I started. #wwx finally gets to have sleeves....his arms are staying warm #I honestly had a blast coming up with these 4 outfits and I'm very curious to see which one will win! #PLEASE feel free to blast me some constructive criticism too #I *am* doing this to learn (as well as have fun) #forgive me for not having these polls linked until later

it's so funny to me that caleb and veth really did just trade off the job of intensely pining for the other at like the halfway point of the campaign. like, imo, nott in the early days did not behave in any real romantic or even romance-adjacent ways toward him--I imagine it would be very hard to even think in that way when you hate what you look like so much, have such low self-esteem, and are actively lying about your entire past, including a secret husband. caleb, on the other hand, is kind of diving directly back into the sort of relationship he had with astrid and eadwulf. very close, very intimate, we-huddled-for-warmth-together-and-oops-it-led-to-something-else sort of thing. he is the one who expresses that he's fine with it if people think he and nott are romantically together when they're talking to keg. nott is the one who pushes back on that. he calls her his life partner. unknowingly, he compares his feelings for nott to nott's feelings for yeza. his behavior only really starts to change after he finds out about veth's husband because suddenly all of that other stuff is rendered inappropriate in retrospect. but even then he compliments her to yeza over dinner in the most awkward of ways, he admits to being jealous, he calls yeza "a lucky man" to have her, he stares at veth and yeza closed bedroom door for far too long, he creates an entire arcane tower with room for her family just so she'll stay with him. in general, his behavior is not, um, totally and completely platonic about it, you know?

like, veth's feelings for caleb are canonical and therefore indisputable in their existence, but caleb in the early days was not that dissimilar to how veth was acting near the end of the campaign. it really paints a picture of "right person, wrong time" in the way things just didn't line up for them. or, as veth would say: "in another world, maybe"

#i am actually thinking about this because my widobrave 2 poll had so many moments on it that caleb initiated #and i often see it remarked that people think widobrave is entirely one-sided and caleb only treats her as platonic or familial #which. my real answer is that it's just complicated and i don't think he'd ever admit to any romantic feelings being there #but i also. uh. i wouldn't call it platonic or familial. there is some holy fourth dimension that this relationship exists in istg #impossible to explain but it is NOT entirely platonic nor all that familial imo as it stands in canon #this is like. ONE piece of the meta I was trying to figure out how to phrase earlier today. bottom line of it was: #I don't think the caleb/veth romance is entirely one-sided but also it is so so complicated #their relationship changes SO many times. SO much. that's why it's so frustrating that fandom is stuck in episode 13 re: their dynamic #SO MUCH ABOUT THE DYNAMIC CHANGES AFTER EPISODE 13 #even sam reigel himself on talks said there was no reason their relationship wouldn't change/evolve after that #and it did change! it really really did! #widobrave #the mighty nein #caleb widogast #veth brenatto #critical role #inaugurating the new url with a widobrave post. as it should be

[do-you-know-this-adhd-character]

Do you know this (canon) ADHD character?

Proof: All demigods in the Percy Jackson series have ADHD and dyslexia.

I don't usually include submitter commentary for canonically ADHD characters, but I wanted to share this from one of her submitters:

I figured other people probably already submitted Percy Jackson & Leo Valdez, since they fit the commonly held 'boy who can't sit still' stereotype of ADHD, but I wanted to include Annabeth since ADHD is so underdiagnosed in women and she's easily the most prominent female demigod in the series. Also, a lot of times people with ADHD (and dyslexia) are portrayed as being unintelligent, and Annabeth is the daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom, and is repeatedly shown to be incredibly intelligent.

#poll #canon adhd character #percy jackson #percy jackson and the olympians #pjo #annabeth chase #annabeth pjo #pjo annabeth #it was complete coincidence that i queued this right after posting that thing about having to change the submission form #i just thought it had been a while since i posted a canon character and she was next on the list #but it IS extremely funny to me

#for me personally the first one #then the third and then the second #I do think the third is an upgrade to the second because it feels more natural? the humor isn't as forced and there is a plot. kinda #the second will always be in my heart tho. for jed and oct. everything else is really meh #and the fourth movie?

Can be platonic, romantic, antagonistc, frenemies, however you want to interpret it, just whoever you think has the best dynamic.

#Doctor Who #Classic Who #The Master #Ranger's polls #I've limited it to those that can easily be reduced to trios #so for example I had to leave out Chang Lee and Grace and Five/Ainley/Five's companions #anyway there is of course a Correct answer but a lot of these are good

alternatively, you can pick the one that ✨least scarred✨ you as a child! and then go have an 80s fantasy-themed party to celebrate! glitter is mandatory!

#better drawn mdzs #mdzs #bonus comic #lan wangji #wei wuxian #Its the dawn of a new arc! Which means a new day! And new outfits for our duo as chosen by all of you! #Bte; mxtx never said lwj *wasn't* wearing lingerie under his hanfu the entire time so.... #It makes him feel confident! And he enjoys it! AND he looks good in it. #wwx has NOT yet noticed. He keeps looking away to give lwj privacy while he changes. This is slightly devastating to lwj #at the end of the day he's wearing it for himself but he would like to be acknowledged. #I had a blast drawing this one! Lots of reference searching but I find that part kind of fun too. #I originally was going to have references to all the outfit options but oh man it got cluttered. #I did NOT trust myself to colour in the floor. My markers are getting dry & i wasn't sure about colours. #Thank you all for support with the polls! And for all the very sweet fan art and outfit propaganda! #This one is for all the people who wanted to vote for bikini lwj. Blows you a kiss (platonic).

Whumper-Turned-Caretaker CYOA 1

I'm giving this a try. It's my first time writing something interactive like this so please bear with me.

CW for the series

You linger at the top of the stairs, quietly watching the sleeping form of your basement’s unwilling inhabitant. As if just watching them will help you figure out what to do next.

You’ve had Whumpee for a while. You caught them for your own enjoyment and you’ve kept them locked up down here ever since. You treated them however you pleased, which usually meant them getting hurt. It’s taken its toll on them, but you didn’t really mind that. At least, not before now.

But you had a…an epiphany, maybe, a change of heart, a reformation, whatever you want to categorize it as. Point is, you don’t feel like you should be doing this any longer.

You take a moment to consider what you should do from here. Maybe just letting Whumpee go right away would be the technically right thing to do, but you really don’t want them running straight to the police. It would probably be better for both of you if you helped them recover first, right?

You can patch them up, meet the many needs they have that you’ve been…less than diligent about at best. Take care of them.

Then again, they’re probably behind on sleep. Waking them up to take care of them might actually be worse than leaving them as-is for the time being.

You sigh to yourself. Doing whatever seemed fun in the moment was so much easier than trying to figure out how to do what’s right.

i’m pretty sure this was done on the tlt subreddit once before but i haven’t seen it here and i’m curious to know tumblr’s opinions on the topic! personally i like the second two much more than the first—gtn didn’t really grab me that much and i wouldn’t have even called myself part of the fandom until i decided i might as well give htn a go and immediately got sucked in—but i’m guessing that most people’s experience is different, since the first book seems like the most popular based on the impressions i’ve gotten. also feel free to put in tags where you’d rank the short stories (as yet unsent and doctor sex) relative to the books! i would have stuck those in the poll too but there are. 120 different ways to order 5 unique objects

#personally it’s always going to be ayu >/= htn > ntn > dr sex > gtn for me #i do think that gtn might have had a chance against ntn if i had read gtn in the same mindset that i read nona (i.e. already completely 100% #obsessed with the world and characters) but there’s no way either of them could possibly hope to compete with the EXPERIENCE that is htn #and ayu is absolutely perfect for what what it is (character study of judith subtle worldbuilding exercise etc.) #like that short story more than anything else to me is where it’s clear that muir has written fanfic before because in the best possible way #ayu feels like one of those extremely high-quality 10-15k oneshot fics that you read and find your entire life permanently changed by #also the night that story leaked on this website was my destiel night so i will always have a fondness for it tied to that experience #the locked tomb #polls #if this HAS been done on here then i’m sorry and i’m not trying to steal anyone’s thunder! i just really want to know
