Is the couple from A Silent Voice technically bully x victim

Like I know he isn't anymore by the time they fall for each other

But technically wouldn't they fall under that category 🤔

#i ask this bc everyone hates b x v #but like....listen #they might be the only exception #bc they don't have the typical bully x victim traits that make the trope toxic #shes not like oh i love u even tho u beat me up #and hes completely out of the bully zone when he actually falls for her #and the forgiveness she gives him is super sincere and treated right #so #ill give the b x v trope 1 point #if they count LOL #sidrabbles #a silent voice

unfortunately those Cutting and Deep h3ather havril3sky ask polly "here's why you're lonely/here's the empathy failure holding you back" excerpts everyone loves to post

are just permanently recontextualized for me by her series of op-eds about how everyone in her family is an incomprehensible one-dimensional pod beast with completely unlovable preferences for things like "starbucks drinks" and "conversations about their lives", which she tolerates, with enormous difficulty, only through a sense of duty and a bunch of rationalizations about how actually it makes her sexier and cooler that she's willing to endure it

#like. i don't actually know enough about the typical content of one of her Actually You're Failing To Do This Empathetic Basic Mental Action #And That's Why You Have No Friends In Your Thirties and/or Are Constantly Beating Yourself Up For Things columns #because i'm a little generically allergic to that kind of thing #but the excerpts seemed pretty reasonable? sensible people i respect like them? the written content was always the kind of thing that seems #like something a reasonable person might form as a generalized observation based on their social experiences? #but uh. she DOES have an op ed about how listening to her husband tell her about the walk he went on is an experience she only gets through #by imagining that tolerating it makes her beautiful and feminine by contrast to his grizzled broken-down Man Nature #so i. feel like that should have some ramifications for her likely ability to do social modeling and give actually good advice #box opener

Why is being into swing and big band and ragtime seen as so weird. I thought we liked music here. Am I supposed to rephrase it as "retro jazzcore" or something or can I just listen to Benny Goodman on Spotify in 2024

#music talk #''omg that's so typical for you 🙄'' well ok I'm flattered you think I have taste! #''lol you listen to electro swing? as long as you don't start listening to actual 20s stuff'' what if I told you I liked the 20s stuff more #also the ''such transmasc music'' I thought transguy music was 100 gecs and Cavetown the ones I talk to rarely even know who #Cab Calloway is

do yall have multiple sides of your extended family that do not get along? and for some reason at one family reunion with group A someone from group B showed up who had a nasty divorce or something with someone from group A? so everyone who was at the reunion is like what the fuck are you doing here we were doing fine. but the person from group B is already eating the food and putting their shoes on the couch and generally being a nuisance?

thats what it feels like when goyim force their ways into intracommunity jewish discussions such as zionism. yall are shoving your way into places that arent not yours and acting as if you belong right there. yes you can learn and i encourage you to but you need to leave jewish community discussions to jewish people. yet you are here, eating the proverbial mac n cheese and putting your muddy boots on the fuzzy throw blanket.

#jumblr #jewish #i would have less of a problem with goyim in some jewish spaces if yall knew when to shut up and listen #but you typically don't

You’re a snake, I can see it in your face.

VENGEANCE FOR RIZE AND KURONA! SHE’S AWESOME! vote for Hakatori.  that’s a link to the poll and one of the best bits of propaganda that’s been written for her yet.

sunday funday, let’s play a tag game 🌞 thank you maurycy my best friend maurycy @kwiatuszku for tagging me: put your ‘on repeat’ on shuffle and list the first 10 songs. let’s see where this journey takes me!

1. the bottom of it - fruit bats. yes of course it’s the first one that comes up, I’ve been listening to your summer heat playlist on loooooop for two weeks now. or three?

2. ushme uturbe - kalush orchestra & bbno$. uncharacteristically, two genres I love more than most expect are electronic and rap.

3. sen katarzyny II - jacek kaczmarski. yeah spring and summer means hiking and hiking without fail gives me the polish sung poetry disease.

4. bring back the color - san holo and aurora. can’t say no to anything new by aurora!

5. feel your weight - rhye and poolside. the only way to make rhye better is to involve poolside, you know?

6. lipstick lover - janelle monae. on repeat since it came out, especially now that it’s so hot outside. 

7. musiałaś ty dziewce - kapela ze wsi warszawa. again, being in the mountains does things to me and I keep returning to this one song in particular.

8. gambino - daria ze śląska. heard it for the first time while getting home drunk basically through the same route that she sings about. weird feeling!

9. prada rave - da vosk docta. so good for those early june nights while exploring the thrills of the city! 

10. paris, texas - lana del rey and syml. I got to hear the instrumental during syml’s live performance in warsaw and it has a special place in my heart given how much I love his music.

and I think the rule is to tag 10 people as well, goodness me. another cop out in my standard fashion: if you’d like to do this, consider yourself tagged 🌞 but tag me so I can see 🖤

#tag games #I listen to very typically mainstream music on spotify because I listen to it exclusively in the car #and my other 'personal niche' account on spotify apparently doesn't have that on repeat playlist? I think because I don't really... #repeat songs there?

saw this Good Shirts shirt and had to put it on sabine. i guess this is a modern AU, i don't know, don't worry about it

(quick warning, if you decide to browse through the good shirts site some via the credit link, be mindful of the fact that there's. there's some wild shit in there. very much nsfw.)

bonus:

hey ez was it your idea to have astarion suggest the shirt to her? it was like a few days ago the origin of this joke has absolutely been erased from my brain. anyway it's good.

(first time drawing astarion and it's this. feels right.)

got a couple comments under the tag that contain #bg3 spoilers #bg3 dark urge spoilers so you can skip this if you're trying to avoid those! there's nothing necessary under here, just talking about sabine in the rare chance that anyone outside of my followers actually sees this.

hello. this is my durge, sabine (she/they) and i love her very much. within the limits of the game mechanics she's a wild magic sorcerer + assassin rogue high half elf, in my canon for her outside of bg3 limitations she's a divine soul sorcerer + assassin rogue ?aasimar?aasimar-adjacent?/bhaalspawn-as-a-race-because-that's-what-durge-is-essentially in the shape of a high half elf. if aylin gets to be an aasimar as the child of a god then sabine gets to be at least KIND of one, too, damn it

going the resist!path with her. she's a generally good person who doesn't think she is since her first instinct is always Bite Bite Murder Stab Bite Kill in every situation (even if that's not really her fault). she's trying so hard to Be Good and the more she learns about her pre-amnesia self the more horrified she is, but also like. there are a lot of bad guys she has to go up against in her quest. she can murder bad guys, as a treat! even if she could probably talk at least some of them down. it's fine! she deserves this!

finally, see below for the in-model game for her, and also here's my tag for her. i haven't posted too much yet but oh. oh boy. there WILL be more.

#sabine tag #bg3 dark urge #bg3 astarion #this is my oc blog i don't typically post fanart here. idk what my non-oc character tags should be. so [fandom] [character] works #[fandom] [character] 'tag' for posts i don't want to end up in the more common tag probably #technically sabine is only like. partially an OC. durge has their own thing going on that larian wrote. #but listen. listen. this is my fucking child. she goes on the oc blog. fuck you

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ❤️

As I said on my first fic rec post, I have written very many fics and I love almost all of them, so I can't pick FAVORITES so much as CATEGORIES, and this category is going to be "Fics Joanna Made Me Write Outside My Comfort Zone Because It's Good For Me Or Something"

Whenever I view the moon on the battlefield This was the FIRST fic I wrote outside of ANS fandom, and if that was not already out of my usual groove enough, it's also from the POV of one of the minor characters in Hakuouki, Shimada Kai. The concept was originally conceived while I was streaming a playthrough for the obiyuki discord-- Yamazaki (our best boy) and Shimada are both spies and spend quite a bit of time off screen, so we kept running into scenes and being like "how AWKWARD is it for those two to be watching this right now?" And so when it finally came time for me to throw my hat into the yamachi ring...Joanna asked for THIS to be the fic. You know. Instead of one where Yamazaki and Chizuru actually kiss or whatever. Sigh.

The Most Perverse Creature in the World Listen. I know there are people out there who LOVE xReader fics. I'm happy for you, truly. I am not one of them. But after answering the fandom fuck/marry/kill game (otherwise known as only one bed/slow burn/enemies to lovers) with small littler blurbs about the kind of story I would write for the older gentlemen in ANS (Shidan, Lata & Haruka), SOME PEOPLE got very invested in Haruka's little enemies-to-lovers blurb. Some people made puppy eyes. Some people made puppy eyes and then got very sick after, and I AM A GOOD FRIEND and wrote ONE CHAPTER and have never known a day of peace since. Six years later it's up to thirteen chapters, has a very complicated plot involving the politics of taxing oral sex, and I've learned how to effectively write in 2nd person.

don't speak boyshit I cannot properly explain how absolutely in our heads the Maria/Kamitani pairing is, but like. It's good okay?? Joanna did not so much force me to write this one so much as like...emphatically encourage its existence, to the point where I have a very complicated outline and she routinely reminds me I'll finish it when i'm like. 50. But this is certainly the gateway fic to the OTHER fics for this pairing she DOES want to twist my arm over, SO ON THE LIST IT GOES. I am one of TWO authors in this ship tag, and also one of TWO fics...and yet this is one of my most popular non-ANS fics 🤣

If the Mind Is Willing This is a fic Joanna will HAPPILY admit to being the main driver for, since, as she puts it, "there is no one else who could possibly ever write this fic." Taking TWO very niche concepts (LARP and a SURPRISE FOR LATER) and a very niche pairing (yamachi) would perhaps not have been MY first choice...but Joanna asked for the first chapter as a birthday gift a few years back and here I am, learning a whole new tabletop system and really giving my FBI agent something to talk about at the watercooler.

He Who Studies Evil Of all the niche fics Joanna has convinced me to put to paper (or at least, word document), this is probably takes the top spot. A prequel to my obiyuki Star Trek AU, this covers events about 10 years previous, with Haruka taking over DS9 and immediately being thrown into a political nightmare when he is informed that the Cardassians are in possession of a missing human child. This took...an INORDINATE amount of time to research and write-- I hadn't seen DS9 since I was in high school, and I watched through nearly half a season just to get the timeline right-- but I still REALLY love how it came out. Which is good, because it is definitely one of my least read fics 🤣

i’m sure you’ve talked about it before but you expand more on your thoughts about talia & jason and how their relationship would be? what are some positives and negatives their interactions would bring? (your talia metas are everything)

thank you! on talia's end i think a lot of it would come down to balance and restraint. because there are a lot of unpredictable factors at play and on top of it her tutelage of jason coincides with her last years under her father's thumb so there's parts of herself that she's beginning to close off out of self preservation and exhaustion. that's why i like the placement of under the hood right after the close of lexcorp era even if it obv wasn't intended because it puts her in a place comparatively to take all of the risks after a year of complete physical and emotional isolation. and even then i feel like there would still be a lot of restraint because of the guilt over her part in jason's various massacres. i could see her reprimanding him but in a very cautious and empathetic way so as not to set him off the way bruce would if he was the one lecturing him. so like.. not quite in the realm of mothering but maybe teetering on the edge of it. and i do think talia would try to maintain some distance out of respect for his history. which may or may not fuck with jason emotionally because as possessive as he is of his own grief i do think he'd long for even the smallest semblance of what he thinks he could get. like guarded as he is he would certainly soften to her over time and abide by her guidance even if he didn't necessarily verbalize the fact. i don't really know that i'd see any negatives between them like at worst it would be awkward and strained because he wouldn't be sure of how to place her in his life and she wouldn't want to overstep

#like on one hand i know a lot of people hate shoving talia into that motherhood role at any available opportunity and i do too to be clear #but ig i wouldn't think of this as exemplary of typical 'motherhood' as we know it. it would be motherhood in the sense that she would #come to love him as if he were her own. and in the sense that you could draw parallels between jason entering bruce's life at a time #when he was incredibly lonely and despairing and entering talia's life when she was feeling similarly as well #so there would be that shared experience between her and bruce of jason filling an empty space #but i don't think she would be outright parenting him. although there could be an unspoken truth between them that he would allow her to #eventually. because he would trust her enough by that point to listen to almost anything she said #and he would see her sorrows too and he would care about them because he knows no one else has #that's where i would bring in damian. i think he would help her get him back because he would know how much it means to her #as someone who's been through that situation in the reverse of losing the opportunity to have a relationship with your child #outbox

once again, mlm stories written by and for cishet women are so lesbian porn for cishet men, but at least they're aesthetically pleasing

#listen i'm not judging i am watching this show and enjoying it a lot! #but it is very fun to see the fantasizes of these women #i guess I can't say much cause i was about to compare it to brokeback mountain and i don't know if that was written by a woman #nvm it was lol #but yeah the typical ''i'm having sex with a man for the first time #i'm never done this before. this is so new to me #but yeah lemme bottom and use no lube. we fuck like MEN'' #ahfnjsng #obviously condoms weren't even considered here... what for huh? #oh well... that's the one thing i will always have to ignore lol #except when they skip the sex scene and to prove it happened you get a shot of a condom package open on the nightstand #at least you know they were safe lol #anyways... i'm annoyed a lil bit #angel talks
