Sasuke X Reader [Best Friend] [Part 2]

[A/N] I do not own any of the characters present in this story, nor do I own the GIF that is featured. I do hold ownership over the story itself, please do not re-post it anywhere. Thanks! <3

It’s been 5 years since you broke up with Itachi and started dating Sasuke. You two have graduated from school (Sasuke received a degree in criminal justice and you double majored in forensic investigation and in communications). You two have been living together and you both applied to the National Police Agency. Sasuke was hired as an investigator and you as a liaison for the department. It was while you were out celebrating your new jobs with your friends that Sasuke ended up proposing to you. It wasn’t a big fancy ring, but you thought it was perfect.

The two of you decide to have your wedding in 2 years time. That gives you enough time to comfortably plan, save money, and accumulate time off. The first thing you decided to work on was the guest list. After work one night you and Sasuke sat on the sofa. You have a legal pad in your lap and are chewing on a pen. You both decide that you want a small ceremony and a small wedding party. Sasuke selected Naruto as his man-of-honor and you chose one of your closest friends.

The two of you decide to invite your friends from school, that’s about 24 people between the 2 of you. Then family, you quickly made a list of all your family members that you want to invite conferring with your fiance along the way. Then you start on the Uchiha family. You quickly scribble down Mikoto and Fugaku, then you write an ‘I’ before stopping your pen. You pause and look at the legal pad. Then you look up at Sasuke. He looks back at you with a head tilt. He leans over to see what you were writing before he lets out a sigh. Sasuke pulls the legal pad from your hands and shifts so the two of you are sitting side by side.

“We should talk about that huh.” He states wrapping his arm around you. Things between the two brothers had been tense for the first year after you and Itachi broke up. Sasuke was pissed for so long, and the rage resurfaced every time your feelings of insecurity were brought up. Obviously not at you. But you weren’t quite the same after Itachi cheated on you. Things started to look to be on the mend after all three of you started working at the same place. It was big enough that interacting regularly was out of the question, but you often had to work with Itachi and his team to prepare public statements. Sasuke saw him on a more regular basis. The two would be called in for their opinions on the harder cases their father was handed, and Mikoto frequently demanded family dinners. So while the relationships were improving, your heart still had a scar on it.

“Do you want him there?” You ask him keeping your voice neutral. He rolls his eyes,

“This isn’t about me-”

“He is your brother Sasuke, and this is our wedding.” You emphasize turning toward him more. “If you want him there, then I want him there.” You place your hands on his face and press your forehead against his. “I don’t want what happened to still be a problem. We have moved on with our lives. I love you with all of my heart and I want to marry you no matter who is at our wedding.” You finish by pressing your lips to Sasukes. He presses into you, wrapping his arms around you and drawing you in to straddle his lap. You let out a hearty laugh at the action and smile down at him.

“I want to invite Itachi,” Sasuke says. You smile at him then lean back towards the table, Sasuke stabilizing you as you do so. You messily scribble Itachi’s name on to the growing list. You drop the pen back on the table and wrap your arms around Sasuke’s neck again.

That was almost a month ago. The plans were steadily made, month by month. Currently, you are sitting at a bakery with Mikoto and Sakura sipping coffee and tasting cakes. Since Sasuke is practically repulsed by anything that is branded as a sweet, you brought the two ladies with to help you decide. Sakura and you are talking about the pros and cons of ordering flowers through the Yamanaka shop compared to others (presently you have more pros than cons). Mikoto was silently sipping on her coffee, she carefully set the cup down and cleared her throat sending a smile your way.

“Have you decided on the guest list? Sasuke says you were working on it the last time I saw him.” She asks with a gentle smile on her face.

“We have, but the problem I’m having is,” You recap the last conversation you had with your fiance, the two girls listen in a rapt manner. “I really don’t want to dwell on the past. But sometimes when I see Itachi my breath still catches and my heart skips, in a bad way. The worst part is that I still struggle with what happened.” You tell them. The two of them sat quietly thinking over what you had said.

“Have you considered seeking counseling?” Mikoto asked setting her cup down.

“What, like, get my head shrunk?’ You asked confused by her question.

“No no. You and Itachi going to couples counseling. Most divorce couples seek it out, it could be beneficial to you.” She explained.

“Hm.” You took her suggestion into consideration, you’d have to talk to Sasuke about it, but if it would help alleviate the tension between you and Itachi, it might be worth it.

“Well, what cake do you guys like?” You ask your guests in front of you, hoping to switch topics.

---

That day when you got home, Sasuke was already working on dinner. You walked into the kitchen and stepped up behind him wrapping your arms around his waist and pressing your face into his back. He stirred the food in the pan he was working with. Sasuke placed one hand over both of yours and soothingly rub his fingers over yours.

“How was cake testing?” He asked going back to cooking.

“Hn.” You responded drawing a laugh from him.

“That bad huh?” Sasuke questioned.

“Hmmmmm. Well, it wasn’t bad per se, we chose a cake flavor. But, your mom made a suggestion.” You trailed off, still thinking about what she said.

“What’s that?”

“She suggested that Itachi and I go to couples counseling to resolve what happened before.” You explain tightening your grip on Sasuke, pressing your nose between his should blades. Sasuke let out a sigh before turning the burner off. With you still ‘attached’ to him he maneuvered to grab two bowls to serve dinner. He grabs the now full bowls and starts to walk to the living room, you’re still holding on to him and awkwardly walk with him. Sasuke sets the bowls down on the kotatsu, then sits on the floor pulling you down into his lap.

“Tell me what you think about it.” Sasuke says, keeping his voice neutral, indicating he wants to genuinely hear your thoughts. He begins to eat the noodles he prepared waiting for you to speak. You sit silently thinking about your response while also slowly eating the food he prepared. When you were halfway through your food you had your thoughts in order. You place your bowl down and tuck yourself back into Sasuke with a sigh.

“Your mom suggested that Itachi and I see a therapist that specializes in divorce counseling. I think if it can help mend the relationship between us and him, then we should consider it. I- I’m still struggling with what happened. And I don’ know how to make it any better.” You confess feeling your throat tighten. “And I don’t say this to make you feel bad, or anything like that.” The tears are now pooling in your eyes. “You are so amazing and supportive, and Sasuke, I love you so much.” Sobs have broken through fully acknowledging what you hadn’t before. Sasuke set his bowl down and wrapped you up in his arms, firmly squeezing you.

“Whatever we need to do to assure you feel the best, we will do it.” He says pressing his lips to the top of your head. You turn fully into Sasuke wrapping your arms around him and crying into his chest while he soothingly rubs your back.

---

The next day at work you approach Itachi on your lunch break.

“Can I talk to you for a minute.” You ask him, there are a few other people standing around in his office. And he looks slightly surprised to see you.

“Yes, please everyone if you will excuse us.” The others left the room and you took a seat in front of Itachi’s desk while he closed the door. Once closed he sat down in front of you. The tension is thick in the air.

“What’s up?” He hesitantly asks you. You watch as he fidgets with the ring on his finger. The ring he had since highschool when he was hanging out with those kids that Fugaku hated. If you remember correctly the group called themselves Akatsuki, or something like that. Itachi developed this nervous tick early on. He would spin the ring around his finger, and on the days he tried to hide it from his dad, he wore it on a chain around his neck and he would drag the chain up and down. One week he needed your help hiding the ring, his dad said if he saw said item again, he would throw the ring away and send Itachi to the boonies of Japan. It had been a bad week for Fugaku, the office was getting ready to try a massive case, and he had been more than tense. So Itachi placed the chain with the ring on it around your neck and asked you to keep it safe. You were insanely giddy. Honestly, you secretly hoped he would eventually propose the same way. A shot dream.

The thought made you smile and you were brought back to reality when Itachi shifted forward, resting his forearms on his desk (still fidgeting with his ring). You took a large shuddered breath, looking down at your hands as you laced them together glancing at your new favorite ring.

“Sasuke and I would like it if you attend our wedding.” You state, your eyes moving up to look in his. Itachi’s eyes widened slightly at your statement. “Um, but before that, I kinda need … something from … you.” You tinker off, the nerves back tenfold. Your gaze drops away from his once more, and you begin ringing your hands together tightly squeezing one then the other.

“If I can help you in any way, I would be glad to.” Itachi softly murmurs, but it felt loud in the quiet office. Engulfed in the silence once more you struggled to find your words. Itachi was using that work tone on you. Just like Sasuke, he was keeping his voice in a neutral tone. Gauging you without influencing you with his tone.

“I-I, need you to go to therapy with me.” You tell him. Your hands in a vice grip of each other. You heart beating fast and breath coming short.

Suddenly two chilled hands are pressed against yours and Itachi is kneeling next to you. Carefully he pried your hands apart, he hated when you did this explaining that he didn’t like that you inadvertently caused yourself harm, and he held them in his. You look over into his eyes and realize that tears had flooded your own and you were holding your breath attempting to suppress the sobs bubbling in your chest.

“Breath,” He cooed, using his thumbs to rub the back of your hands. A shuddered breath rips its way through your throat and the next thing you know you are full blown sobbing in your ex-boyfriend-soon-to-be-brother-in-law’s office. For a few moments the two of you sit there, Itachi doing his best to soothe you and you crying. Eventually, you calm down, Itachi grabs a kleenex from his desk and hands it to you. You clean up your face, and take a few calming breaths.

“What did you have in mind for therapy?” Itachi asked, looking up at you from his kneeling position. You take a few breaths and explain to him what you had been researching. By the end, you and Itachi decide that next Saturday you will go together to check some counselor offices.

---

On Saturday, the two of you shopped around until you found a counseling office that you both liked. The two of you set up a time to come back for your first appointment. It is as you are leaving that the therapist comes back out to greet the two of you.

“I forgot! I have some homework that the two of you need to do before next week.” She explains. She hands each of you a sheet with instructions on it and tells the two of you not to let the other see it. Afterwards, the two of you head to a tea shop located near by and sit down for a drink.

The two of you sit down at one of the tables while you wait for your tea. Both of you fingering the papers you were handed. You glance over at Itachi as a familiar sweet smell permeates the air, dango. You see his nose twitch as a display is set on the counter where everyone was ordering. Itachi has a longing gaze in his eyes, you know it is his favorite snack, but he was frequently reprimanded for enjoying sweets so much. With a laugh to yourself you stand from your seat mentioning that you will be right back. You walk up to the counter and order a plate of dango for the two of you to share. When you get back to the table Itachi has unfolded his paper and is looking it over. You see a furrow to his brow that lifts when you set the plate down. He smiles at the trat and you sit down once more.

“What’s it say?” You ask him, curious to know if he will give in to your prodding. Instead he smiles at you and folds his paper up.

“You know I can’t tell you. You’ll find out next week.” He tells you grabbing one of the sticks from the plate between you too. You smile at him, knowing there is no way he will tell you anything until next week.

The two of you enjoy your tea and treats. Reveling in the conversations you have and laughing like you two hadn’t for a number of years. At the end of your time together you both say goodbye and head your separate ways. On the bus back to your apartment you find yourself crying silently remembering how things used to be.

---

During work the next week you were tasked to assist Itachi and his team to prepare evidence that will help the prosecutor convict an at large criminal. It seemed easier to work with everyone now that some of the tension was alleviated between you and Itachi. During your lunch breaks you would pop into Sasuke’s office to hang out with him, providing the two of you a break from the gruesum elements of your jobs. Then it was back to work for the rest of the day before you went home with your finance for dinner.

On Friday you and Sasuke ordered takeout and sat at the kotatsu to eat. Dinner was put away and you pulled out the homework you were given. You had been putting it off for the whole week, but seeing as you were going to the office tomorrow you should probably fill it out. Sasuke came back in and sat down behind you wrapping his arms around you.

“What are you doing?” He asked, resting his head against your shoulder.

“Homework,” You tell him. Sasuke gives a confused grunt in return and you explained it to him. Sasuke sat up and read the paper over your shoulder.

“At this mediation office we work on positive separations. To do this, your first task is to write a letter to the person you are separating from about all the positive attributes they possess.” Sasuke read outloud. “Hn.” was his response as he tucked his head into your shoulder and closed his eyes. The two of you sat in silence momentarily before he broke it once more. “You better start writing, I want to go to bed soon.” Sasuke said, pulling you tighter to him and snuggling into your back drawing a laugh from you. So you started writing.

---

The next day found you and Itachi sitting side by side across from the councilor in her office. She told the two of you to call her Koi, a nickname she gained from childhood due to her soothing mannerisms. Koi sat there smiling at the two of you, a notepad in hand, and waited. She asked you to read your letter and upon her request your throat grew dry and tight. You took a shuddering breath, drank a sip of tea set in front of you and clutched your papers in your hand.

“Dear Itachi,” You started a quiver to your voice. “You and I have known one another for almost 20 years, and because of this I have come to know you inside and out. Every expression your eyes make, even when you think no one else knows what they mean, I do. I have been in love with you since I was 7 years old,” You say with a laugh, in turn getting Itachi to laugh as well. “ Because of this, there are a few things that I want you to know about yourself that you often neglect. First of all, I love how sure of yourself you are. You have always been comfortable with who you are even when the world has pushed back against you. Being with you made me grow in my own confidence. Second, you have so much love in your heart, and I am glad to witness it nearly every day. From the care and hard work you put into your job every day. You make sure that the people who deserve justice get it, and I am so proud of you for that. I also see the love you have for your family-” Your voice breaks at this point forcing you to take a breath before you continue “You were the pillar of support for Sasuke and I when we were growing up, and you still are to both of us. I see the love you have for your mother and father, the way you keep the Uchiha house together makes this blatantly obvious. Finally, the security that you offer. You have always been someone that I could confide in, in my life. I am thankful for the love you showed me for nearly 5 years, and although it isn’t the same type of love now I still feel it.” Again you have to stop to compose yourself through the tears. “Itachi Uchiha, you were the love of my life for so many years and I am grateful for all the time we spent together. With love, Me.” You finish folding the paper up and sitting back in your seat with your arms crossed. Koi leans forward and hand you a tissue, which you use to wipe your face.

“Thank you,” Koi says with a smile, “Okay, Itachi, would you please read your letter now.” She says turning her gaze to him. You also turn to look at the Uchiha seated next to you and his eyes are locked on you with one of the saddest expressions you have ever seen him wear.

“My dearest love,” He starts, and immediately you are clutching your shirt with the hand not holding the kleenex. He hadn’t called you that in nearly 5 years. “I feel as though there is so much to say, and only a little time to say it all. You are the first person to have so much of my heart. One of the earliest memories I have of us is when you were about 8 years old, the first time you told me you loved me. And the first time you said you were going to marry me.” Itachi said with a smile, the memory made you grin as well. “You came into my life because of your outgoing personality and your convictions and those same qualities made me want to keep you in my life. My favorite thing about you is that you are a great friend. You are always there to offer a hand to whoever needs it regardless of the cost to you. You are as selfless as they come, frequently giving up your happiness in favor of others. You are the kindest human being I have ever known, but you don’t let people take you for granted. You work hard every day to prove your worth to those around you, personally I think you work too hard some days.” Itachi pauses to clear his throat, you continue to watch him, tears fully streaming down your face. “My dearest, you shine brighter than any observable star in our galaxy. And everyday I am proud of the progress you have made. I believe that I am a lucky man because I was given the chance to love you and have you love me in return. There is not one thing that I like about you above any other trait. I love everything about you, because it all makes you who you are. Sincerely, Itachi” He finishes and tears are officially brimming in his eyes as well.

Itachi sat back in his chair, gently resting his letter in his lap, his hand rose quickly and brushed any tears that may have accumulated from his eyes.

“I am glad to see that the two of you still have positive feelings for one another.” Koi said “That will make this process easier moving forward.” Your meeting wrapped up, and the two of you quickly parted ways after the fact. You got home and found Sasuke resting on the couch with a book.

“Welcome back,” He lazily drawled, “How did it go?” You simply smiled and walked over to him. Sasuke sat up a little straighter when he saw that your eyes were red. “What happened?” He barely managed to ask before you threw yourself down on top of him. You laid with your chest pressed to his and your legs in between his. You wrap your arms around his neck and press your face into his shoulder.

“It went well,” You tell him. Sasuke deposits the book to the side and wraps his arms around your waist. His hands rub soothingly up and down your back as you two snuggle. “I love you.” You whisper into his shoulder.

“I love you too.” Sasuke replies, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.

---

It's been about four months since you and Itachi started seeking counseling. Youtwo go the first Saturday of every month and you have already noticed vast improvements in your relationship. The two of you are back to being friends and you can see that it has brought ease to those around you, especially your fiance. Things continue to look up for everyone, and you are excited for your upcoming wedding.

Wrong Food Order Moon Knight Headcanons

How the 3 guys react to recieving the wrong food take away order! I have no idea why I was thinking about this, (also the first creative writing I've done in like 5 years.)

Steven

Notices immediately and goes up to the register.

Completely goes into customer service mode. (The ‘I also work with the public, I know how rude they can be so I am being the nicest person alive’, which isn’t very difficult for Steven.)

“I’m so sorry, but I was meant to get ‘X’ but I’ve got ‘Y’. Yeah, no, not your fault, mistakes happen all the time don’t they? No need to rush or anything. Thank you, cheers!”

The staff are absolutely besotted with him. He’s so polite and understanding. You can bet if he goes there regularly he’s a favourite customer. Servers have a little fight over who’s going to take his order. If he orders the same thing a lot you can bet it’s ready for him the second he steps food in the building.

If his order gets messed up then you know he’s going to be offered his money back. No questions, because it’s him.

“No, you don’t need to do that. Don’t want to rob you blind!”

He is getting free things. All the free things. He’s just too nice.

Marc

Notices a few steps out of the building.

He just wanted to enjoy his food. Just wanted things to be easy

Sighs internally for a solid minute.

So much so that if Steven wasn’t co-conscious at the time he sure is now.

“What’s wrong Marc?”

“They gave me the wrong order.”

“Alright, just go back in and explain. We’re literally still outside of the place.”

He’ll shift his weight from one foot to the other a little.

“Marc?”

“Yeah, no, it’s fine. I don’t want to cause a fuss.”

It’s tiring having to talk to people, having to explain. It’s busy inside and he doesn’t want to be a burden, to make people’s jobs more difficult.

“Do you want me to do it?” Steven looks at him from the shop window reflection.

“Yeah.”

Steven fronts and it’s Extreme Nice Customer Time as he goes in and gets the correct order, even if he wrinkles his nose a bit at having to order meat.

Jake

Doesn’t even order.

He’ll look in the window and think about what he wants. How hungry he is.

But it’s a luxury he doesn’t deserve. He can eat at home.

The idea of waiting in line and interacting with people is so much it’s crushing.

Sure when he’s on a mission he’s in control, confident, the most sure of himself he ever feels. Because he’s doing things for someone else. Following orders.

Even when he fronts to protect Marc and Steven it’s different. He has a task. He has a purpose – to keep them alive.

This, though, this is difficult. This is something he wants, even if it’s just a small thing. And it’s just. So. Difficult.

“What do you want mate?” Steven’s voice takes him a little by surprise. He didn’t even realise he was conscious.

“Oh, nothing.”

“I don’t think that’s the truth now, is it?”

The way Steven fronts is different from Marc or Jake, dreamlike. Similar to a mixture of losing your balance or the sensation just before you fall asleep.

It’s near impossible for Steven or Marc to front from Jake if he’s doing a job, if he has a goal in mind. But the second Jake feels unfocused, feels the sadness creeping in it’s painfully easy.

Steven goes in and orders, listening to Jake as he tells him exactly what he wants. (Steven would double check everything was correct before he left as well, just in case.)

He’d go and find somewhere nice to sit. Quiet, and preferably a park or somewhere near nature before he’d leave Jake holding his order.

“There you go mate. Enjoy!”

Jake would smile and sit, watching the ducks and dog walkers.

I just wanted to say I love all the content where it’s along the lines of Marc or Jake saying, ‘Hey Steven ordered no meat!’ (Genuinely warms my heart!) And I know this headcanon is very different, I just really like Steven looking out for Marc and Jake in this way and wanted to share! (Thank you so much if you managed to read this far!)

Red Peafowl - Assumptions and Theories

Now that I am semi-confident that there won't be any more important announcement for Red Peafowl until the 25th (because I think the last two mystery announcement were the Main Character and Main Love Interest) I am ready to write up my Red Peafowl assumptions/theories/wishes post.

Edit: There has been another update with the plot and some images of either the pilot trailer or the actual series link here. Once again thanks to @mysterygrl20 for putting the post with the google trnaslation here on tumbrl.

Going to use as basis for my information @blmpff post here; @mysterygrl20 individual posts tag here; and the mdl plot synopsis here; along with the synopsis I read on cast announcment articles that goes like this: The drama tells the story of Lu Yi Peng, a former police officer who decides to live with Shuai on an island, raising birds. However, he realizes that the person he once had a relationship with is a powerful mafia boss.

Also going to tag @respectthepetty for helping me narrowing down the leads (YinWar/MossBank) and for sharing my madness over this crazy ass BL already.

Going to start by saying that I think the three mystery characters are the villain, the hero and the love interest. I am also going to work under the assumption that while the last two will be revealed on the 25th (I am leaning on YinWar at the present thanks to a comment made by @amos-reviews-main [hope you don't mind the tag] under the last announcment) the third one our villain will stay a mystery.

Let's beging

ASSUMPTION N#1

Given that there seems to be a significant event in the past we are either getting two timelines (similar to kiseki dear to me but more evenly split between past and present) or the events from the past will be a mystery to the viewers to be slowly revealed using flashbacks.

Both of the plots hint at this, the character description for the hero and the fact that some of the stuff in other character description also seem to hint that they were part of what happen in the past.

If the second non mdl plot is more accurate something brings our hero back to town and into dealing with the mafia. Which leads me to

ASSUMPTION N#2

Cooheart character will be intrumental to bringing his brother our hero back into the fold. His character description hints at him being the biggest point of the contention between our main couple and that he has some kind of accident.

Another character that has an accident is Gun's character.

Also there is a doctor nurse in the cast list.

Edit: Cooheart's character accident is the past, and it has left him with a disability. I do still believe that he will get someone involved in all of this.

Either Gun's accident involves Cooheart's character (not on purpouse) in the present or Cooheart's character had an accident in the past and is now seeing a doctor regularly.

ASSUMPTION N#3

Like I mention earlier I think our third mystery character is the villain. His body dissapeared = No body no murder = he is still alive. That is just the biggest writing rule ever.

If the actor for that character doesn't get revelead it means that one of the other actor is actually that character pretending to be someone else (probably one of the cops or a character that doesn't interact with the love interest for obvious reasons). If they do have a seperate actor that probably means that at least one if not more of our big cast is secretely working for him.

ASSUMPTION N#4

There are only two genres that benift from having such a big cast and making sure they all have identifiable characteristics and fan anticipation: Mysteries or Something with a high body count.

It means that our cast of characters are either Suspects or Victims or Both.

EDIT: It's a mystery. I do still believe some of the people from the big cast are going to die.

Either way I do think that a lot of the new people will end up dying at some point during the series.

ASSUMPTION N#5

Themes. If this show has decent writing I can already ID 3 themes.

The new tendency in bl fandom to romanticize the mafia. See Lee's character being a human trafficker and our lead being potentially not that great either.

The cops, and how they are not there to protect and serve and how much the crime fight is really a sham. See Frank's character being an undercover cop (a plot line that usually has a the undercover cop come out on the other side with a semi-broken relationship to his job)

Toxic Ships (a la: Kinnporsche, Hannibal and Interview with the Vampire)

About the last one: I have a personal metric on wether or not I enjoy a toxic "problematic" ship

Do you get the sense/vibe from the writing that the creator/writers of the show knows this is fucked. And I don't mean a lampshade comment with someone saying "This is not healty" and everything resuming as normal.

Is there a point in which the dynamic becomes more equal. As in no matter which character is objectively "worse" is there a point where it feels like the characters are on equal footing, on the same side, Hannibal does this really well for example.

Some ships that don't pass the test are: Twilight, 50 Shades, R*ylo; TharnType and every ship on Love Syndrome (do not ever watch that BL I am serious)

ASSUMPTION N#6

Ships.

FrankLee are obviously our second couple. They are both super relevant to the potential themes, they are obviously trying to pair braind (this is their third BL) and they were also announced first.

Boun and the Doctor are giving me crumbs ship vibe. They are both potentially important chartacters. But I feel like with all of this their relationship might have the least ammount of dedicated screen time.

Now the last one is less of an assumption and more of a wish really.

Max-Coohearth > now listen I know that Cooheart has a love interest already, Rome one of the first new guys announced in the cast. But Listen the fact they are already dating doesn't bode well for them. Cooheart is a super important character and it makes sense that his "proper" love interest would be someone in the mafia proper.

Plus Cooheart deserves it ok. I loved both of his major roles (uwma and my only 12%), but he wasn't allowed to be a proper sexy queer guy in either of them. Have you seen his instagram feed? It's picture after picture of him in sexy outfits. Let this man be in a high heat realtionship, put in a skirt. He deserves it and so do we.

Also Max from iconic pair MaxTul pair with Cooheart will heal people. It would totally fix me. And if they give this to me I will forgive anything and everything this show does wrong seriously I will be like: I was wrong on everything and the plot is not that good, but they give me MaxCooheart so 10/10.

Also the character description for Max's character makes me think that catchphrase they mention might be something similar to the English phrase: "Who's Your Daddy?" and [this is @respectthepetty's fault, I didn't use to have such glee about a possibly daddy kink] seeing Max Nattapol uttering the phrase Who's Your Daddy and potentially having a DaddyKink relationship with Cooheart is something I didn't know I needed but now I desperately desire.

#txt #red peafowl #red peafowl the series #i'm done #as you can see this show is already making crazy #i don't picture this going away anytime soon #i mentioned it in other tags before but I will say it again #i am hoping this will have good or at least decent writing #but all i really need with this cast is this being entartaining #and to not romanticising r*pe like th*rnt*pe and love s*ndrome #if you do toxic make it toxic proper be aware of it embrace it do it with a fucking purpose #also: forget the cast announcements i want to know who the writers are

indeed, anon. i'm sure it means a lot for LO that you're willing to lie so blatantly. 1. that user they mentioned? not one of my followers or regular users who interact with my content. if you go to their blog, literally the only one that reblogued from any of us was this post. for the record, it was the post where i posted the screenshot of LO using the r-slur against her critics and Brittany commenting that LO later changed it to "crackhead".

i can't speak for the other blogs though. at least they didn't ring any bells for me. just in case it's needed too: i'm stubbornly clear about how i don't want anyone reading my blog to go interact with LO in any sort of way. the goal here is deplatforming and you can't deplatform someone if you just keep validating their platform with more social interactions. not to mention that anything you say to her is just more for her victim narrative. 2. one reblog post. zero likes. the rest of their interaction are miscelanious posts that have nothing to do with either LO or our blogs. is that what "regularly interact with" means now? but even if they did "regularly" interacted with any of us... again, we're all pretty adamant about not harassing or bothering LO because it'll always be useless. so clearly this person is not listening to us either and went out of their way to go against what we try to do. i'm not happy about this person going off on LO like they did either. 3. let me get this straight. when we say that some anons write the exact same as LO does and we can recognize the tone, or it's just pathetically obvious in some other way, that's us building conspiracy theories because we can't accept that someone might actually like LO. those two things have nothing to do with each other in the first place, LO is capable of using sockpuppet accounts and also there being people who for some reason think they like her, those are not mutually exclusive, but that's what LO has said before. but when this unconfirmed anon that nobody know who they are say that they recognize the writing style of some of the anon messages we get with this other random tumblr user who only wrote something by themselves once, oh, now that's a valid thought process. to clarify, they might be right for all i know. i have no clue. i just know that this user went against LO in the most unnecessary way possible and it did nothing but anyone, so i hope at least it was worth it for them because certainly it wasn't for us. they might have also send us some anons for all i care. i just question the double standard here. when we do it, it's a conspiracy. when other people to it to defend LO, no, that's just being a smart person who just notices this kind of things. 4. "showing people 5+ instances of you being directly contacted by the blog"... what is this even talking about? what other 5+ instances are they refering to? i only just found out about this one user going on their own. this one user i might have seen once in my activity notifications and never again. where are those other blogs who are part of this side of tumblr doing this? 5. "everything going on with Poppy last month has also been very helpful." i'm so glad, anon, that you're able to be so honest and say that you're glad that Poppy violated the consent of a survivor of CSA to the point that she destroyed his trust. i almost respect that. or do you mean the multiple allegations of abuse against her that have nothing to do with us or LO? the ones that LO has majorly ignored? while treating Poppy like a potential victim only after she put the testimony of Courtney behind a paywall? truly, i'm fascinated with how you see a sex pest harming people, using them and discarding them as "helpful" to keep the good reputation of your favorite youtuber. indeed, the sign of a well adjusted and moral person with their priorities in the right places. thank god that all those people were negatively affected by Poppy so it could serve you to keep protecting a proven groomer. i bet all those victims will be delighted to know that their experiences were useful for you. but really, what i can expect from a fan of the woman who has said more victim blaming things that are more aboherrent than that? you two truly deserve each other.

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog.

I’m Redley. Relatively new to Tumblr still, but I’ve been finding that I’m comfy here. Though it still feels awkward (thanks, dysphoria), I prefer she/her pronouns. I don’t mind they/them, but… meh. Note that Redley is neither my legal or chosen name; it is solely a handle, and I will only tell you my chosen name if I feel comfortable with you. If I extend that trust, please treat it with respect. If you don’t, I will remember.

Here’s the main stuff I’m comfortable sharing or want you to know about me:

1) I’m transfem, but haven’t had an opportunity to do much actual transitioning yet. Dislike my voice, adore my hair. My luscious, glorious, flowing hair.

1.5) I am likely pansexual, but I haven’t done enough research to know for sure. All I know is, people are… well, people are hot.

2) I live in Florida, but was not raised here. The climate and scenery are nice; the local government sucks ass though. Also, I miss snow.

3) I’m a diagnosed autistic, falling somewhere on the high-functioning end of the spectrum. I’m on prescribed antidepressants, but have not been able to find a psychologist/psychiatrist yet because it’s fucking Florida.

4) There are a lot of things and people I don’t understand, but I’m always open to learning. Trying new food is a special passion of mine, and I’ve met some quite fascinating new people since starting this blog. (*eoughck* @potentially-a-poser *aucghk* @analogue-system *ahem*)

5) I will not tolerate hateful behavior. You will be immediately blocked for shit like denying any of the shades of aro/ace individuals as being part of the LGBTQIA+ community. If you see me spreading misinformation or saying something that excludes members of the community, please tell me. I’ll research the matter, as well as review any sources you send me.

5.5) okay so I think I’m demiromantic

6) I do not mind being tagged or sent asks or otherwise brought into conversations. People who abuse that will likely get blocked, but whatever your social anxiety is telling you probably comes nowhere near ‘abuse’ in my book. Anonymous asks are enabled, but that can likewise change if the feature is abused. Hate asks will be blocked, naturally.

7) I would prefer being asked before you directly message me. If you don’t, there is a possibility you’ll be blocked, but it’s not a guarantee. I don’t want me and my friends’ conversations getting buried by anything.

8) If you consistently and frequently post tiktok/reddit memes with little to no commentary, I may block you simply out of annoyance should you repeatedly show up on my dash. It’s not personal. If something about you makes me suspicious or uncomfortable, but not outright offended, I’ll most likely notify you of my reason before I block you.

9) Age: pick a number between 1 and 100 because it’s none of your fucking business. None of you are entitled to any of my personal information, regardless of the reason. I will share only what I want.

My Behaviors

There are certain things I gravitate towards or away from on this site. Here’s some:

1) I am most likely to follow people who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, are mentally ill, or are dealing with some variety of personality disorder. This is mostly just due to the fact that I find the most common ground with those people. But even those who I have little common ground with, I’ll tend to find very interesting.

2) I don’t mind things like roleplay and hornyposting on my dash, but will almost certainly not interact myself, or make original posts in that category. More extreme examples won’t necessarily get you blocked or unfollowed, but… well, my filtered tags list may grow.

3) I don’t always tag reblogs. This may mean that my followers will see random things that caught my interest. It could be art, shitposting, tender affirmations, politics, or just goofy-ass Tumblr shit. If something I regularly reblog/post about bothers you and isn’t properly tagged, let me know.

4) I am discovering that maybe, I might, perhaps, be a little bit nosy. When I see someone receiving hate or suffering and stressed, I am likely to take it upon myself to do or say something to try to make them feel better. If I bother you with this, I will not be hurt or offended if you block me. In general, I will do my best to be respectful of it when people draw boundaries, so don’t hesitate to draw any you feel necessary.

5) If your intentions are pure, you will likely find that I try to be forgiving and/or understanding of your mistakes, at least in regards to interacting with me. (The /or is a very important distinction.)

6) I will often be attracted to dark, tragic, or dystopic works of art/fiction. I get a form of catharsis from such media, and some of my writing will reflect that.

That’s about it.

That’s all the important stuff I can think of, aside from tags which are at the end. Still, this post may be updated or rewritten in the future. In general, just be kind and open-minded, and we’ll get along fine. Even if you disagree with me, as long as you are civil and rational about things, I’ll likely have no problem interacting with you.

Be safe, and be yourself! <3

20 QUESTIONS FOR FIC WRITERS

1. HOW MANY WORKS DO YOU HAVE ON AO3?

129 . . . i write exclusively short oneshots so take that with a grain of salt.

2. WHAT'S YOUR TOTAL AO3 WORD COUNT?

362,664 which is a feat for ME!

3. WHAT FANDOMS DO YOU WRITE FOR?

semi-regularly:

bbc merlin

marvel (spider-man)

percy jackson

dc (batman and superman)

have written and posted for:

doctor who

house md

grishaverse (the grisha trilogy and six of crows)

alex stern series

the raven cycle / the dreamer trilogy

goncharov (😭)

harry potter

the 100

the magicians

anne with an e

to all the boys i've loved before

4. TOP 5 FICS BY KUDOS?

ACCIDENTAL HEROISM / the batman (2022)

THE JONES-WATSON-PARKERS / mcu spider-man

MYTH CALLS ME LEGEND / bbc merlin

BRING ME HOME / percy jackson

YOU'RE THERE WITH OPEN ARMS / bbc merlin

merlin fandom . . . you will always be famous to ME!

5. DO YOU RESPOND TO COMMENTS?

yes, always (or at least i try).

6. WHAT'S THE FIC YOU WROTE WITH THE ANGSTIEST ENDING?

hmmm . . . WAIT. LAFF. this is so funny because i think it's FINAL GOODBYE, my sole goncharov fic because goncharov dies at the end. fr though, maybe WE CAN MEET AGAIN SOMEWHERE which is a pjo fic where i killed percy off lmao. i have since realized that i apparently don't write a lot of angst . . . an interesting to note about myself for sure!

7. WHAT'S THE FIC YOU WROTE WITH THE HAPPIEST ENDING?

due to the nature of my writing—short oneshots—they all mostly end happily! maybe IN THE NIGHT (mergwenthur with platonic merthur and merwen and romantic arwen) because it was just soft all the way down!

8. DO YOU GET HATE ON FICS?

no, i don't think so.

9. DO YOU WRITE SMUT?

sometimes. the mood just has to strike yk <3

10. DO YOU WRITE CROSSOVERS?

uhh if you mean characters from Fandom A meet and interact with characters from Fandom B then no? i have written fic inspired by other fandoms, but those would be AUs then . . . i'll go with no.

11. HAVE YOU EVER HAD A FIC STOLEN?

not to my knowledge!

12. HAVE YOU EVER HAD A FIC TRANSLATED?

nope. some people have asked though! i was deeply honoured but i like to keep my fics on ao3 instead of any other site and they wanted to post elsewhere.

13. HAVE YOU EVER CO-WRITTEN A FIC BEFORE?

wait. i just remembered, oh my god. SCREAM. does 13 year old me's rp count? because that would retroactively change my answer to the crossover question since i DID do that. it was so godawful and was probably 100k—started out as bbc sherlock fic and then bbc merlin got in there along with doctor who and supernatural and probably every fandom under the sun after that. we never posted that anywhere (thank GOD) but what a time. i don't co-write now. not for any particular reason, but i don't think it's come up.

14. WHAT'S YOUR ALL TIME-FAVOURITE SHIP?

see, this question is so hard because i write and consume so much different media. at the moment, in my current doctor who phase, i'll say tenrose! ask me during a different phase and you will get a different answer hehehe <3

15. WHAT'S A WIP YOU WANT TO FINISH BUT DOUBT YOU WILL?

all of four of them 😭 one reason i write oneshots is because my interests wanes so fast. you'll be hard pressed to find me in the same hyperfixation for longer than a few months, but i always come back eventually. specifically, RENEGADE'S RETURN (dc dick grayson-centric) would be the WIP imo because i posted that with no intention to finish it. all the other ones i had hopes, but this one . . . no </3

16. WHAT ARE YOUR WRITING STRENGTHS?

prose and characterisation. i think i'm getting pretty good at writing in the pov character's voice. like if you take my house md fic and compare it to . . . i don't know my raven cycle fic, i think the voices are distinct enough even with my same writing style:

HOUSE MD: New Orleans sticks to House’s skin. It reminds him of the Philippines. Long days baking under the sun, oppressive heat blanketing his entire body, sweat pooling at the top of his lip. At least when he was in the Philippines, he wore shorts and a tank top to cool down. Currently, there are about three layers on his chest—undershirt, button-up, blazer—and the AC in this place wheezes and puffs out mildly cold air like an overweight asthmatic kid attempting to run a marathon. THE RAVEN CYCLE: Adam Parrish does not have many things. A bare IKEA mattress, various pieces of makeshift furniture made out of cardboard, and a three-dollar rug he found at a sale. It’s not much, but it’s his and he’s proud of it. Sometimes, though, pride doesn’t discount how hot Virginia summers are. His skin is sticky with it, the light cotton of his shirt clinging to him, restlessness twisting under his skin.

i tried to pick two snippets that are generally about the same thing (summer heat!). at least to Me, this seems different enough in tone, but you know. vibes!

17. WHAT ARE YOUR WRITING WEAKNESSES?

my inability to write long form is genuinely not only a weakness but so so so detrimental to me fr. every fic i have written can EASILY be at least 25k EACH. probably more (definitely more) because i write the moments in between or . . . [sigh] let me say this instead. with longfic, there's usually a moment or a scene that you want to get to, the whole fic is culminating to that scene so you write thousands upon thousands of words to get to where the that scene would make sense in context, yes? well. for Me . . . i just write The Scene™

18. THOUGHTS ON WRITING DIALOGUE IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE?

i'd fuck up google translate so fast (and have), so something like "they speak in spanish" or "'hi, how are you?' they ask in spanish" would be preferable to me.

19. FIRST FANDOM YOU WROTE FOR?

definitely pjo percabeth fic at the age of like . . . ten (10). i posted it on ffnet and have since scrubbed from the internet.

20. FAVOURITE FIC YOU'VE EVER WRITTEN?

funnily enough i created a series which is just fav fics that i've written which sounds so egotistical, but whatever. there are 13 works in there, i believe, and most of them are merlin lol. but in recent memory it has to be a tie between JUDAS KISS and THREAD OF GOLD (both arwen fic !!!) because i experimented with my writing sooooo much there, JUDAS KISS being first person and THREAD OF GOLD being second person. i typically write a close third person pov especially for fic. my prose is wired for that, but it was so fun to try to do that for first and second anddddd i got some banger lines out of it so a win's a win!

THREAD OF GOLD: Your father’s presence is larger than life. Larger than love. It looms. It casts shadows long enough to hide every hope and dream you’ve ever had for yourself. JUDAS KISS: All I can think about is Arthur. His rage is fine as a blade, sharpened by the betrayal I have dealt him.

#idk why it’s missing lines on desktop for Me but on mobile it’s normal.. tumblr u stupid stupid site #tag games #not merlin #text #tais toi lys

Ooooo I love your responses! I personally prefer numbers just because it’s easier for me to remember but I do respect noxcrew’s decision to make the event less sweaty lol. I realised after I sent the ask you had a post about missing buildmart (the beloved).

The question about players like Sapnap came as the reddit had a small discussion on if he would return. Most people agree that there’s no reason for why he can’t play unlike certain people (cough cough Punz) but if he does return that’s a different question. He doesn’t have many close friends who play regularly, he hasn’t been playing minecraft since Punz and George were called out and it’s well known that Sapnap is hard to put into a team. He can’t be PG, he only wants to play with some friends and Scott himself said that Sapnap is hard to put into a team because of said reasons. But I wanted to see an opinion outside of reddit lol.

Anyway more questions:

1, what do you think the new game is?

2, how do you feel about people claiming that the event is better because lots of ex dsmp members aren’t playing as much? Not counting the ones who were called out for horrible things, just former dsmp members not playing Eg, Philza, Tommyinnit, Foolish (Which is a wild take as Hbomb and CPK are ex-dsmp players and 3/4 of blue this mcc were so…)

3, what’s better, the new or old parkour warrior?

4, do you think someone in modern mcc could break Techno’s coin record?

5, the most difficult question yet, because Joel was playing mcc before becoming a hermit, should Hbomb have to play with Joel again to add him to his hermit list or do we add Joel to H’s hermit list without them playing together again?

That's a fair point about numbers, but for me I actually feel like most of the mccs in the late 20s/30s sort of blend together for me? although that could just be how season 3 was

Yeah, those are all also good reasons why he wouldn't. I could see trying to bring him back for like, hype/views, but I hadn't thought about how many of his viable teammates have quit the event LMAO. Probably for the best with the way noxcrew is trying to make things less competitive anyways. If nothing else I will miss having someone to root against, I guess

New questions :D thanks!!

for 1) i have absolutely NO idea. I REALLY hope its a team game, a redstone game would be fun but there's no way they actually would do that so. eh. Maybe something with players on different tracks going through a puzzle course, kind of like that one grid runners room with the pistons? Seems like minecarts are involved, anyways. I'd love to hear any theories you have!

2) People are saying that? that's dumb, lmao. I'm glad to see dt leave, but beyond them? Most of the dsmp crew were great sports and I think one of the best parts of mcc was getting to see different communities interact! I mean, a lot of them are moving past mc as a whole and mcc *has* been running for a very long time now, so I don't blame them for leaving, but I am sad to see them go. Although making room for newcomers is great too, and I love the variety of players we're seeing already for s4

3) new 100% old pkw SUCKED. it wasn't even fun to watch the good players, honestly. I hate old pkw but new pkw is actually really enjoyable! Lot more strategy, a lot more room for players to not feel like deadweight. still not my favorite game but it is honestly one of my favorite movement games

4) I mean, it's theoretically possible, but I don't think it'll ever happen. I mean it's been ages since someone's even broken 4k. I also just don't think we'll see a game lineup with the most high-scoring games, it'd make for a pretty unbalanced roster with basically no team games and that's no fun! but 4k maybe, especially if sg ever returns and the new game is point heavy.

5) woah, heavy hitter. I hadn't thought of that... I wanna say it should count. joel's always been so hermit adjacent anyways, so actually I'm checking now and they haven't teamed since SEASON 1???? No it doesn't count. solely because they should team again

#ty for the ask!! i love your questions these are great #backseat gaming

My Top Posts in 2022:

It’s finally time. What were your favorite works/fics from the past year?

There are two that I can think of which basically made me started writing on this website.

@a-casual-kpopfan - Time - Hyunjin

That is perhaps one of the most creative and saddest stories I had ever read on this website. Maybe people just taboo of writing their kpop favs having illnesses or God forbid, passing away, but this one crossed the line and it delivered.

@yieldtotemptation - EXPERIMENTS ft. Winter

My God is this a banger. Character development? In a smut? Storylines without awkward cursing? 9k words? This is a must read for all, even if you don't really know Aespa, which I don't.

thoughts on choevi?

Based on their vlives and interactions, I would say they are great pals and genuinely care about each other. They are so comfortable with each other and their smiles and laughter are absolutely genuine, viewers and fans can see that too.

As for the trilogy, I don't think Choerry would try to disrupt ViVi's personal love life (unlike Yeojin). I try to write stuff that is at least a *bit* plausible to their personalities shown on camera. Like, I can't envision a scene where Choerry tries to snatch ViVi's boyfriend away, it doesn't match her personality, it's too far-fetched.

So yeah, Choerry will remain uninvolved in this current trilogy, but in the future I'm sure they will have their own duo series!

Unraveled Secrets - Episode 2 (ft. Yeojin)

LOONA ViVi x Male Reader

Word Count: 7469 words

Categories: smut, girl on girl, series

Disclaimer: Here is the second part of the trilogy! This episode happened right after where episode 1 has left off. Also all LOONA members will use stage names in the most part excluding ViVi for familiarity and continuity purposes. Special thanks to @a-casual-kpopfan for proof reading!

They say time is just a perception. If you are doing something you like, it will flow by faster, and vice versa. Waiting is an arduous process, a slow torturing method designed to push your mind and patience to its absolute limits. If things going your way is like a 100 meter dash, then waiting is like a marathon. It’s the pain of going through it.

-7 days till scheduled trip-

“One week.” Kahei murmured.

Your first date in real life. 7 days left. Painful.

Unlike Chuu, who is allegedly booked full until 2054, Kahei had some free time to spare. Usually she would spend her time painting art pieces, hosting V Live from time to time, or just hanging out with other unoccupied members. But now, all she can think of is that day. THAT special first date you two are going to have. Kahei cannot stop herself from overthinking about every single aspect of it. Where should we go? What will we be doing together? And also…what is Yeojin planning anyways? As soon as she thought about that, Yeojin’s words echoed inside Kahei’s brain.

“We’ll have a threesome together unnie! We’ll be fucking all day and all night long! Isn’t it what you asked for?”

Her ears turned red. Her face turned crimson. Her heart was pounding stronger than before. Even her kidneys are pounding, for some reason.

“What is this feeling? Nervousness? It couldn’t be…” Kahei contemplating with herself. “I didn’t even feel like this on my debut stage…what is going on?”

She was completely in her zone, immersed in her own world of thoughts. At this moment, Choerry noticed her unnie was a bit strange today. Kept spacing out, and being oddly quieter than usual. This piqued up Choerry’s interest, so she decided to get to the bottom of this. But to do that, she must rescue Kahei from her own world and bring her back to reality. Choerry asked Kahei if she could join her V Live session, as she needed someone to teach her Cantonese and engage with foreign fans.

My #1 post of 2022

Unraveled Secrets - Episode 1

LOONA ViVi x Male Reader

Word Count: 1421 words

Categories: smut, masturbation, series

Disclaimer: This is my first planned series, so the first episode is quite short! But I'll be sure to take time and really try to bring the most out of it! Also ViVi is my bias, if that is not apparent enough, she deserve more attention honestly, enjoy!

Kahei is always the quiet one in the bunch. Surrounded by high energy girls every single waking moment is tough for her. If Yerim is like a ball of sunshine, Kahei is definitely like a cool breeze at night.

She is known for being the sweet, collective and dorky mat-nae, who would make you seaweed soup as breakfast, but yells at you to clean the dishes if she ever spot one dirty utensil in the sink. That is the Kahei we all know and love.

But being the only foreigner in the group, there are a lot of unknown secrets before her debut. Everything about her past was supposed to be a secret, tucked away into her own mind palace, and she would do anything to protect her most previous moments in life. But that is all about to change.

After a painful and excruciating annual dinner at BBC, LOONA went back to their infamous loonathedorm and finally catch a break.

Hyunjin is annoying Heejin and begging for her attention, Yeojin is taking selfies with some obscure background she managed to find and Olivia Hye is still picking out cotton from her clothes from that explosion incident. You know, just a normal day in loonathedorm.

Irritated by the noise, Kahei grabbed her phone and locked herself in the toilet to minimize the noise pollution. She took a big breath, and beginning to type on her phone rapidly with her skilled fingers. You would have thought that she texted one of the members to express her frustration pent up the entire day, but you would be wrong.

"Oppa, I'm stressed out again today…"

"Kahei-ya, it's okay to blow some steam out from time to time, 24/7 I'll be there."

"…Cheesy as ever."

And there you are, one of the few male contact in her phone, her secret male-friend that only he knows - Jason. The one true friend that stayed with her all the way from her debut until now.

"You really became a full-fledged Korean now huh? Don't we call each other on a first name basis?"

"Well…oppa is easier to type anyway."

"Anything that suits you, I'm fine with it."

A smile beamed across Kahei's face. She knows you are always the considerate one, and the funny one too. If only distance is not a problem, you two would probably hangout everyday single day!

"I'm still stressed out, can't we just do…the usual?"

"Sheesh, you sure is bold with me huh. Alright, ever ready to be of service."

Kahei opened up their secret meet link and video called you. She put her phone on the cistern so that you can see her entire body. Her pale skin and long black hair pairs perfectly with her thin waist and perky chest. She's not on the big side but still it is prominent enough to stand out. Clearly it's not the first time she has been doing this kind of stuff, being an idol is stressful after all.

"Do what you gotta do, Kahei." You murmured, and she begins to remove her clothing, one at a time. She was wearing a white tee with a denim jumpsuit that just overload her with cuteness. It was exactly the same outfit she wore in her debut single MV.

Just as Kahei is about to remove her jumpsuit, an intrusive thought made you interrupt her with a simple but bold request.

"Kahei, can you tie a twin tail for me please?"

"…Never knew you had that kind of fetish, Jason. Just this once okay?" Kahei begrudgingly tied her hair into twin tails, which makes her even cuter in your eyes.

have you considered commenting <3

this is a short rant, so feel free to ignore. It's not directly aimed at you, I just thought of it after I read that tag...

I love commenting on fics, that's the main reason I made an Ao3 account, so I can let authors know I love their work. And it was going great for a while, but right now I'm mentally drained and I still want to leave comments, but at the same time I feel bad about just leaving one word comments when I used to leave at least 5 sentences, so I don't leave any comment because I feel this pressure to comment the best comment ever (tm) even though I know it's not what anyone is expecting. Heck, I write myself and I'd be happy to receive just an emoji as a comment.

But especially with a series where I've been commenting at every chapter I feel like I'd let the down by not putting in more effort to comment, especially if they might recognise me as a regular commentar and suddenly I'm not leaving long elaborate comments. I don't want authors to worry that I didn't like a chapter, when I loved it, I just don't have the word at the moment...

hi!! thank you for wording this the way you did, because i've been having a lot of thoughts about comments on fics lately and you're giving me the excuse to express them <3

first of all, if you've ever commented on anything, know that you're appreciated. i know that it's hard sometimes. for the first couple of years of me using ao3, i barely commented on anything, even though i knew how important comments are. i knew, and i still didn't do much more than leave a kudo, and that's on me. i can only hope those authors got the appreciation they deserve from someone else.

because here's the thing; most of us are doing this for the love of writing, for the love of these characters of whichever fandom is the drug of your choosing, and for the love of sharing. and as someone who's been writing an underperforming series for the past five months, let me tell you that it sucks to write and be passionate and share and receive fuck-all in return. it really sucks. and it's not about the number of interactions or about the analytical quality of the comments or whatever. it's the fact that a lot of the time, once a week or two have passed, we get absolutely nothing. writing gets lost in the tags or buried between more popular fics, and sometimes it feels like an endless uphill battle.

i'm not saying that to complain, i'm just saying that this is hard, sometimes. it's a wonderful hobby and i love it, but it's difficult.

lately, i haven't been writing a lot and i haven't been reading a lot, and if i do read, i mostly do it here, on tumblr. i've always felt there's a certain seriousness about the comments on ao3, even though i'm not sure why. we're all regularly going batshit on tumblr though, and sometimes you just need to reply with a meme of a crying cat, you know? so if your reading tastes can be accomodated on here—because a lot of writers actually cross-post their stuff between platforms—maybe that could be helpful.

but, GOD, let me speak on behalf of every writer i've ever known. i would KILL, and i mean positively MURDER for you if you just left me a single emoji on every chapter or fic you enjoyed. i really mean that. i don't need anything more. you don't need to have smart thoughts or elaborate explanations of why you liked something or didn't. of course those things are appreciated but for the love of god they are not expected. the only thing, and i mean the ONLY thing we want is to know that people read our stuff. and we can't know that if you don't tell us. there's no way of knowing.

i don't look at the likes on my fics. i can't do that to myself anymore, and so those people don't exist for me. that might sound harsh, but the only way for me to keep my sanity is to focus on the few who do comment. who do reblog. who do send asks.

if you're a regular commenter, i will notice. i will not mind if your comment is a single character, or illegible gibberish, or a one page essay, or a line of exclamation marks, or three memes in a trenchcoat. i've gotten intelligent analyses and i've gotten reviews that were just quotes that the readers particularly enjoyed and i've gotten a simple "this was great". all of these are appreciated. all of these are craved.

we're already living in the worst timeline, let's not put unnecessary pressure on ourselves.

and if you want a practical solution for your commenting paralysis, i've found this post indispensable.

3, 9, 15, and 24 for the fandom asks!

3) What is the best fandom you've ever been involved in? I'm going to say the Samurai Jack fandom only because it's the only one I really interacted with at the peak (i.e. when season 5 came out). I've had a great time with the few I really interacted with, and also just all the Scaramouche content when it was coming out regularly. I'll give a close second to The Muse ARG because I'm sort of following that from the side and having such a fun time with it as it comes out.

9) What are the best things about your current fandom? Honestly, all the friends I've made and the people I talk to about Franmouche. You all know who you are and I love that this obsession has been going on for almost five years. I know Scaramouche I've been obsessed with since March 2017. Pretty sure Franmouche hit my radar back in September 2017, give or take.

15) Is there an obscure ship which you love? Sorry that this is purely a Samurai Jack post XD For starters, there's Franmouche - the French Robot and Scaramouche the Merciless from Samurai Jack. It's my niche ship from a niche show. I think about them all the time a lot. What's the new thing? Yes, I think about them a normal amount... I'm also breaking my heart with Gal x Jared. Gal an OC created by @gravity-what and is Scaramouche's youngest brother. Jared is one of my OCs that was supposed to be a throwaway character for a one shot and well... @nothing-of-a-builder can tell you my track record with those. They're either going to be 20 pages or turn into a chapter story XD Here's the story if anyone is interested

24) What fic do you desperately need to rewrite or edit? Hands down, it's "Never Better." My writing has improved so much since I wrote it and I love the plot. Just needs a revamp via rewrite. There's probably a few old Mr. Freeze stories I have hanging around that could stand for one, but all I care about writing wise is Samurai Jack. I've barely read or written anything else!

Thanks for asking!

#asks are always welcome

Thank you, Malaysia!

A 26 year old boy who has stayed in the one city all his life, one day decides to leave not only his city but his country all together to embark upon a journey in a completely new country where he knows no one. All he has is this new job and flight ticket to a country he has only heard of. He has so many questions on his mind.

Is this company genuine ?

I have heard stories of foreign worker exploitation. What if this company takes away my passport on the first day and make me their slave?

Being vegetarian, will I get decent vegetarian food to eat there?

Where will I stay?

Will I like this new job?

....and so many other questions.

Yes, you guessed it right. This boy is no other than me.

Now looking back, I find myself a bit naive to come to a new country without doing any kind of research. But that naivety and blind trust really has helped me a lot.

My first impression of Malaysia was very good as I was impressed with tall buildings, wide roads, clean surroundings and discipline in traffic. It was a very good learning experience working at a place where there were people from 30 different nationality. Before coming here, I didn't interact much with people from different country and what little I did was very awkward and low in confidence. This was the company where I was regularly interacting with foreigners. I went from being awkward and shy, to talking regularly with them and also making friendships with so many of them. We all exchanged our cultures and traditions with each other and learned a lot from each other.

Since I was very new to this place and had no friends and family I got a lot of time to be with myself. I started to know myself a bit more. I started understanding what I like, what I don't like, how I like etc. It was a truly a defining moment for me. I was discovering myself and it is this phase which actually also defined my career at large. It also gave me the confidence to follow and do things that I love.

I did lot of things on my own like cooking, washing utensils, washing clothes etc. I had never done these things but now since I am staying alone I have to do all of these. Two years in Malaysia and I got married with the love of my life and it was also made possible because I had came to Malaysia. This is a story of it's own which I may or may not share on a public platform.

In these 7 years, I worked with two companies and they have shaped me in different ways. It was also during these 7 years I got an opportunity to work with World Health Organization (WHO) and World Bank (WB) which is an achievement of it's own.

I made some wonderful friends here. Friends that are as good as family and some of them will stay with us forever.

So many things that I owe to Malaysia. Now that I am ending my journey here, I want to say thank you to Malaysia for being so kind and patient with me. Truly, thank you so much. Now to summarize I just want to include some highlights of my 7 years here. All of these observations are compared to my home country India.

Unique Malaysian Things :

Malaysia consists of 3 races majorly. Malaysian, Chinese and Indian (Tamil) and all of them live with peace and harmony.

Malaysian are very patient in general. In an intersection, they will allow other cars to pass first, allowing pedestrians to cross, patiently waiting for someone to pay their parking ticket while in queue and so many other examples.

They are very disciplined drivers as well. They do follow traffic rules.

Malaysia is very safe. You can forget something somewhere and most of the times you will find that thing at same place even after 24 hours.

Food choices of various range. I have had lunch/dinner for 5 RM with a drink and also 100 RM. You can get food according to your budget.

Random Acts of Kindness :

Driver who returned my mobile after I forgot it in the cab.

Stranger who payed for pay and use toilet fee for my mom when my parents were visiting us in Malaysia and I wasn't around to pay.

Two random girls who helped my parents to self check-in their luggage at the airport when they were returning back.

Things Malaysia can improve upon :

Quality of things are not that up-to the mark. We had 5 Gas Lighters in 5 years whereas in India home we are still using a single lighter for 20 years. Toilet jet spray was replaced 4 times in 5 years, whereas in India we haven't changed the jet spray in 15 years.

Too much of single-use plastic. Most of the grocery store charge 0.20 RM for the bags and some of them still give free of charge but still it is too much of plastic and should be banned.

If I had to start over in Malaysia what would I do differently?

Driving - I started driving in Malaysia in my last year but it would have been very helpful if I had learned it earlier. There were few places that we didn't go because there was no reliable way to reach there using public transport or by cab.

Learning Malay - It would have really helped me in various situations to communicate with locals in the language that they are comfortable in.

As my journey ends here and the new one resumes in India I want to say Terima Kasih, Malaysia. See you again!

alright, i’ve tried to keep quiet because i truly believe in karma and wanted this rp to close through the admin’s own actions and not give them any opportunities to blame it on me instead. it also felt like beating a dead horse, because i was sure they’d close the rp after losing a huge proportion of their active members and the majority of their diversity. however, after seeing multiple people sharing their experiences today, they are still posting promo posts and starting their event. so yeah, here’s my experience with @thevillagerp

NOTE: i no longer have screenshots from my conversations with the admins, as i blocked them when i left the rp for the sake of my own mental health, but i did save the text in my drafts, so the messages below are copy pasted. i have not edited them in any way. They also deleted my original anonymous messages off of their blog.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: racism, very vague allusions to homophobia and transphobia

so i was a member of this roleplay for around two months. during my time there, it was startlingly obvious that white fcs were preferred and prioritised, both from the fact that they got more plots and interactions in general and from the fact that admins never promoted diversity on the main. even now, they repeatedly say they “would still love to receive some more male and non-binary apps” while ignoring that they currently have a ratio of 8 fcs of colour to 24 white fcs. their diversity rules at the time were that 1/3 of a mun’s characters had to be played by an fcoc. so people could easily just play one or two white characters.

a while ago, i sent an anonymous message to the main asking if they had considered perhaps changing this rule to be 2/3 characters instead of 1/3, since there were so few muses of colour in the roleplay (as i said before, they’ve since deleted this from their blog so i cannot provide a screenshot). they responded that they had been thinking of upping the character limit to four instead of three, with a rule that 2/4 must be played by an fcoc. i gave them the benefit of the doubt and the time to enact this change, but nothing happened.

so a few weeks later, i sent them this message on anonymous:

I was wondering if you had thought any more about the diversity rules here? I know you said before that you were considering increasing the character limit, but I noticed that hasn’t happened and I wanted to know if that was a change we’re going to see or if you would consider changing the rules in another way? I’m really disheartened by the lack of diversity in the roleplay

at the time there were 18 characters of colour out of a total of over 60. they responded (again, i’m sorry i don’t have the actual wording since they’ve deleted the messages) that they had thought about it and decided against upping the character limit, but instead would be having a weekly “poc acceptance day,” where they would only be accepting apps with fcs of colour. they also said they were doing this “now that the waitlist was mostly cleared,” which meant that the rp was mostly at capacity anyway, so they needed to look more at how to encourage their existing members to promote diversity, since there weren’t spaces open for new people to bring them in.

i responded with another anon expressing my disappointment and pointing out that they had done more to prevent having too many celebrity characters than too few muses of colour, as at the time they had a ban on celebrity muses. i wouldn’t usually suggest a ban on certain fcs, but as it was something they had done for celebrity characters, then i supposed it was a reasonable option.

they didn’t even respond to this message and instead posted on the main asking me to come off anon to discuss it. so i did, and i sent them the following dm:

i didn’t want to come off anon because i honestly feel really ostracised in this group and didn’t want to make it worse, but i don’t want to drop this issue and you aren’t comfortable addressing it publicly so here we are i guess. like i said in my previous message, i really don’t see how a “poc acceptance day” is going to make anywhere near enough of a difference. people will just wait for the opportunity to play their white characters. there are only 18 characters of colour in a roleplay with over 60 characters. that’s less than a third, which is obviously concerning. what’s even more concerning for me is that these characters are more often than not overlooked. i am often ghosted when plotting, or people don’t even reach out at all when i like plotting calls or intro posts. and then i have to watch characters like leo almost exclusively interact with white women (i’m sure that’s not the only example, but it is the first that comes to mind as he is one of the more active characters).

so this issue goes so much deeper than there just not being adequate representation in the rp. i really tried to help, i suggested making it a rule that 2/3 characters need to be poc in my original ask and you mentioned upping the character limit in response. i was worried that my concerns were being brushed aside, but i waited a while to give you the benefit of the doubt and the space to discuss the issue. so you can understand why it was really upsetting today to learn that the one thing you suggested was dropped and instead replaced with something that is barely scratching the surface of the problem. and i don’t know if it was your intention, but by saying that you were waiting for the waitlist to clear, it comes across as not wanting to receive any backlash from people who would want to join with only white characters. and even if people did want to join with faceclaims of colour, they can’t because the waitlist is cleared. like i suggested, you could change the rules so that 2 out of 3 characters must be people of colour. or, as was your proposed idea, up the character limit to four. you could also put a temporary ban on white faceclaims until the ratio evens out. as i mentioned, it’s really distressing that this was something you were willing to do for celebrity characters, but not to aid diversity.

i also just want to make it clear that these have been the only anons i’ve sent, i know you’ve been getting other ones, but those weren’t from me!!

( for context, they were receiving anons from someone else claiming that they felt left out in the rp ).

i had hoped that coming off anon would show them that this was a very real issue which was affecting their members, as well as giving them a space to discuss it privately instead of on the main. they responded with:

Hi Em, thank you for coming forward. We really, really appreciate it and we understand it’s not an easy thing to do. We also appreciate you flying the flag for diversity so strongly. We can always strive to be better, we are on the same page with you here.

Let us just explain our decision making. Firstly, just to address the waitlist, that was certainly not at all our intention when we brought it up. It was a logistical decision with 5+ applicants having already waited a week for acceptance and aware of their position on a waitlist.

When we decided against upping the character limit (and therefore the 2/4 POC character rule), we thought a POC acceptance day could be a good alternative course of action. In our eyes, this was something that would probably bring more POC characters to the group than the 2/4 rule because we knew there weren’t going to be many muns taking up an additional fourth character. This was a rule we’ve seen other groups enjoy success from so we wanted to try it out here. Plus, we think a day that explicitly highlights diversity every week would bring the message to the forefront of everyone’s minds. As we said, we’re going to monitor this over the next couple of weeks to see if it brings any improvement because we’d really like to have it as an ongoing rule.

The non-POC ban is actually a measure we’ve spoken about too and we are considering putting one in place should this fail. Thank you for raising your concerns, know that we’ve taken them very seriously and we hope that you’ll trust our judgement in trying this rule out first to see where it leads.

first of all, i don’t think i even have to mention the wording of “flying the flag for diversity.” but the real crux of the issue here is that they supposedly wanted me to come off anon to discuss the issue, but instead just explained their idea further and didn’t take anything i said on board. they didn’t even say a single word about how i told them i felt ostracised and regularly got ignored. i knew from speaking to other muns in the rp who played muses of colour (and just from looking at the dash) that they felt the same way too, but of course was only speaking from my own experience.

i thought long and hard about how to respond to this, as i was so disheartened by their unwillingness to listen to their members and the fact that they didn’t care that i felt left out. it felt like they had asked me to come off anon just so they knew who was messaging them and therefore put a target on my back, so honestly the thought of being on the dash or talking to the admins made me incredibly anxious. before i had a chance, however, they responded again with:

Hi hun, we’ve continued discussing this issue over the last couple of days and we wanted to let you know that we’ve decided to put in place a non-POC ban instead. Thank you again for holding a mirror up to the group. We do hope that this will recorrect the balance.

so i waited to see how things would play out. they posted about this new ban here and pinned the post to the top of the main:

[ IMAGE ID: a screenshot from thevillagehq of an admin update, which reads: in the interest of keeping the village a diverse space, we are currently only accepting applications for POCs. please note that any apps or reserves submitted to us for faceclaims that are not POCs will be deleted. we will lift this rule once we see fit.

thank you for your understanding and your efforts in making this group a brighter, more inclusive and diverse place for all. /END ID ]

this rule remained in place for around two weeks, during which time they made almost no effort to promote it. the above post was pinned to the main page, but that was the only mention of the ban anywhere on their page, they didn’t update the rules page or even put a note on the application page about it. during this two week period, the admins posted 10 promo posts, none of which suggested fcs or even mentioned the ban or diversity at all. the ban was then lifted suddenly when the pinned post was removed and the admins just went back to accepting apps with white fcs. the ratio had only evened out in those two weeks (from 18 out of 65 to 24/50) because of people going inactive or leaving, and there was nothing put into place to continue to promote diversity after the lift of the ban. in the three days after the ban was lifted, the admins posted over 10 promo posts, the same amount they had posted during the entirety of the ban. it was clear that they had no intention of actually making changes in their rp and had only done so because i refused to drop the issue.

again, i thought a lot about what i wanted to message them. i knew at this point that they didn’t want to make any real changes, but i still felt like i had to make it clear to them how disappointing their actions were. once again, i was messaged before i even had a chance, this time for bubbling.

as you can see in the above correspondence, i had told the admins point blank that i felt left out and ignored in the rp because of the characters i played (aubrey plaza, mj rodriguez and keiynan lonsdale fcs. all of my characters were queer and used either she/they or they/them pronouns). as a general rule, the only people who wanted to write with me and have interesting plots with me were people who played other muses of colour. the rp had a rule that you must reply to 3+ muns on every character, which i had been doing. i had only been back from my hiatus for a few days at this point and had responded to 6 different open starters the day prior. their message to me read:

Hi hun. There’s something we wanted to address to you directly. It’s been expressed to us by multiple members during these last few weeks that they have felt excluded by your character within the group, especially when it comes to the friend bubble that has formed between Mars, Bowie, Luvena, Asher and others.

While we encourage the development of friendships and trust that this isn’t intentional, we have a zero tolerance for bubble roleplaying at The Village. We are aware that our three mun activity rules have been met by all parties involved, however, bubbling is usually a little more nuanced than that and it seems it has unfortunately begun to create a bit of a divide within the group.

We have already issued individual warnings to a few people within the bubble, however with multiple members still expressing their concerns to us, we decided it would be better to address the group as a whole. We hope that by pointing this out to you, you will try and branch out to your fellow members a little more from now on - and try and be a little more inclusive when it comes to everyone else in the group.

We take such matters very seriously as admins, and while we hope it won’t have to come to this, there will be consequential steps taken should we not see any changes in your interactions in the weeks to come.

as you can imagine, i was incredibly upset to receive this message after already telling them i didn’t get plots from many of their members and they had done nothing. even people who i had previously messaged continued to only write with the same few white characters. i don’t deny that we definitely had a friendship group between our characters, but there were multiple people in that roleplay, including the admins, who only cared about ship plots or plots with the same few muns. me and other people who received the same message had all previously told the admins that people aren’t plotting with us and gotten ignored, so receiving this message made it clear that they neither cared about us nor wanted us in their rp. and so i responded as below:

yeah i literally told you i felt left out because there are multiple people only writing with white characters and you never addressed it, so this message is honestly insulting. i have reached out to almost every new member, responded to multiple open starters and have tried to plot with as many people as possible. like i told you, i am often left on read or people don’t even message me at all. if people do message me, i am usually expected to put in all of the effort and if people aren’t interested in actually developing plots with me then i am obviously not going to force my characters on them. all of my characters are queer, non binary people of colour and the harsh truth of this roleplay is that people don’t care about them. i even wrote out a whole list of 20 detailed suggested connections in an attempt to get more plots and nothing came from that either. i’ve even gotten anonymous hate saying that offering to explain my characters’ pronouns was “patronising,” which i didn’t feel like i could approach you about because, when i told you about how i’m feeling excluded, you didn’t care.

so if i only have actual plots with the people who actually care about my characters, i make no apologies. i also don’t even have threads with half of the characters you named, asher being the only one, and have literally only just come off hiatus. so please explain how i am bubbling, because this really just feels targeted at this point.

you’ve made it endlessly clear that this rp isn’t a safe space for people who want to play diverse characters. the main was practically silent while you had a ban on white faceclaims, which you never actively promoted, and then you dropped that suddenly without putting anything else in place. you also deleted my initial anonymous messages asking about diversity as if you were trying to hide that there was ever an issue. you turned anonymous messages off, so that no one can safely criticise you. because i did that off anon and ever since it has felt like there is a massive target on my back. my characters have been “accidentally” on the activity checks multiple times despite me being on hiatus (people get a notification that they were tagged even if you remove their name from the list btw). plus when i asked for an extension on my hiatus, you said that you would allow it “just this once” which now makes me feel like i can’t come to you if i’m busy. right now, for example, i am in the middle of moving house, but i’m also stressed about trying to stay active because you have made yourselves completely unapproachable.

the ratio only evened out slightly because members left. then suddenly after the ban you’re posting multiple promo posts a day??? you couldn’t get more obvious. i came to you about diversity in good faith, hoping that it was something you were unaware of, but you have made it abundantly clear that you actively do not want to promote diversity in your roleplay, we are just here to be witnesses to your ship. there are multiple members who are actually bubbling who have been brought to your attention, but nothing has been done. leo continues to only write with the same three white and white passing characters. charlotte pretty much only appears to write with leo and post a vague “message me for plots” post that wasn’t even tagged. both of you only put effort into your ship threads with each other and the occasional text threads. even with something like group events: while i’ve been here, there’s been a pride event that neither of your characters were even in new york for (an event where i was the only one reaching out and posting multiple starters, by the way); there was no event last month, and this month all you’re talking about is this housewarming party.

i’m really disheartened that it’s come to this, but i can’t be here anymore. please post unfollows for all my characters. you’ve said multiple times that we should trust you as admins, but this message shows again that i simply can’t do that. from the disregard of trigger warnings, to the way you treated being held accountable for the lack of diversity, to how you respond to people asking for hiatuses, this isn’t a safe space. even if i stayed, the target you have placed on me is making it insufferable to just write my characters in peace.

the other muns who received the same bubbling message (copy pasted btw, we all got the same one word for word) all responded with their own concerns and criticisms in responses of a similar length to mine. none of us received a reply, our unfollows were just posted the next day without any further responses from the admins. a few of the other members who had written and plotted with us chose to leave as well, which the admins wrote off as us just dragging them with us as opposed to them being able to make their own decisions and being aware of the situation (which was incredibly obvious. no promotion of a white fc ban, suddenly being active on the main once they try to stealthily drop the ban, then the majority of their muses of colour leaving???)

i haven’t paid the rp much attention since i left, as i mentioned above i blocked the main and the majority of the members just for my own mental health. but from a quick scroll through today i can see that the only change in diversity rules is that now instead of your third character having to be a poc, it is now your second. however, you still only have to have 1 character out of 3 have a fc of colour. so very little has been done, but of course i’m not surprised in the slightist.

these admins don’t want diversity in their roleplay. if you play any character who isn’t a rich, white, cishet neurotypical, please avoid it at all costs. it’s not in any way a safe environment.

10 current favourite things about hermitcraft (in no particular order)

1) Proximity chat, first and foremost. As other people have said, it allows for more spontaneous and organic interactions on the server without faffing around with discord channels. In particular, the Hermits Helping Hermits stream yesterday was an absolutely glorious example.

2) Ren's skin having dog ears now. Plus the actual canon explanation for them being that Bdubs accidentally snipped off his actual ears and replaced them surgically during a haircut that somehow went very wrong???

3) Pinkpulse. He went from freaking out when he saw Stress turned his base pink to going all out and having his hair dyed pink and his t-shirt turned pink, like this man really had a full-on mental crisis and came out the other side like “fuck it, pink base looks really good so let’s go nuts with it” and I love that for him.

4) Scar and Bdubs’s realty business war, from fighting over clients (*cough*Xisuma*cough*) to just trying to make their office bigger than the other’s. Anyone else having flashbacks to the tallest house competition from season 6?

5) Hermits pitching in to Tango’s Among Us project and expressing their hope that it’ll be finished soon. I can’t wait to see everyone play, especially the Hermits (Xisuma, Zedaph, etc) who we haven’t seen playing the actual game ALL I WANT IS SOME ZED AMONG US CONTENT IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK

6) Grian's expansion of the barge coinciding with the potential rise of Pacific. I’m personally loving the angst potential of the season 6 Architechs being on opposite sides of a business war. Probably won’t happen (one war per season, Grian) but a writer can dream!

7) Speaking of Mumbo, I have to mention the mental breakdown he had in his last episode (18/03/21). I’m very concerned about this man and someone definitely needs to check on him, but that being said, I absolutely died laughing many times that episode. “Hearing myself talk here, I’m starting to be concerned about my mental state” ME TOO MUMBO

8) Going back a bit, I gotta mention Tango’s reaction to False’s lil Perry the Platypus. As a massive Phineas and Ferb fan, I found it hilarious, endearing, and very relatable when he almost started crying and sang the Perry the Platypus theme song. (thank you for blessing us with this False)

9) Sewer Cats getting busted. Obviously I’m sad that this storyline has come to an end (mostly bc I was living for those Grian/Impulse collabs) but whenever a storyline like this finishes, it feels weirdly liberating as well, cuz who knows what’s gonna happen next! Would anyone have seen the entire Keralis/Cleo Games storyline coming back when Grian decided to build a secret base inside Impulse’s base just to show his viewers that he can do what he wants?

10) The whole HHH stream but particularly Grian in it. Showing up halfway through the stream having done no work so far and saying “you’re welcome” when Ren thanks them for their hard work. Ren: Grian if you’re not in proper Star Wars apparel I’m gonna be upset. Grian: *pause* Imma leave real quick-. Burning diamonds just to piss people off. Acknowledging essential workers. Saying that the best thing Canada ever made was Etho (yes I’ve already made a separate post about this. no i’m not gonna stop talking about it). Admitting that he regularly has Nerf battles with his wife. “You guys shower?”

And that’s it! Hermitcraft is always so good but there’s something about it at the moment that just fills me with joy. And honestly if I was to list every single thing I love about it, I’d be here a full week.

I have more questions because it's no longer 4am lmao.

Does Skeppy fear any animals? I just wanna know if there's any sweet moments of Skeppy clinging to Bad whilst he tries to calm him down.

I'm guessing Bad still hates things like littering and woodcutters but would he ever act particularly strongly about it or would he have more control?

I like how Rat seems to tolerate Skeppy because Bad likes him but would she ever get jealous if Skeppy started pettting another dog?

I have a horrifying image of Bad just spider climbing up a tree to fetch Skeppy. I don't know why but I feel like dude wouldn't even need branches lmao.

What other supernatural creatures/people do they come across? Were there any that were especially dangerous and did they befriend any?

Is Bad much physically stronger than Skeppy? I keep thinking of Skeppy being a little shaz and Bad just one-arm picking him up and slinging him over his shoulder XD.

Does Bad ever get nightmares of the day he became the forest spirit?

How far would Skeppy take stealing? Would he steal something he knows the owner has genuine attachment to? Would he do everything in his power to steal something for Bad even if it means getting hurt?

Who's more likely to protect the other?

Skeppy just minding his business looking at one of Bad's textbooks, turns his head and Bad's just having a tea party with a freaking bear. Surprised the man hasn't had a heart attack yet XD.

What's your favourite thing to imagine them doing?

Is Bsd an adrenaline junky? Or is he scared of more dangerous things like bungee jumping and mountain climbing.

What would their reactions be to rollercoasters?

Do they have a favourite date-night activity?

Everytime I think of this au it brightens my mood!! Thank you for making something so heartwarming!! <3

Glad to see you again :D And yaay, questions!

My pen pressure broke again, I can't finish any sketches for this ask rn, but here's a couple of old messy designs.

1) Comforting and nightmares

Skeppy has a normal, I’d even say adequate level of fear towards wild animals, whilst Bad has it in negative numbers. And, yes, this fun juxtaposition leads to a lot of unfortunate moments of Skeppy nearly dying from heart attack when some of Bad’s animal friends show up unexpectedly, or Bad goes all out for his tea-parties with wild bears or smth.

So, yes, sometimes the comforting hugs are necessary! And no, none of them ever play up the dramaticness of the situation just to drag out the nice comforting moment They do n o t. That’d be very silly and unnecessary, and will deserve a lot of teasing. So, it’s all serious. Not only for the first couple minutes. Yes.

But If you’re looking for comfort-after-actual-hurt – Bad does have to hold and comfort Skeppy, when the stress of trying to not fuck up the good stuff around him gets too strong. And after the nightmares where they are hated and chased by people. Those dreams do not come often, but when they do, Bad is there to hold Skeppy, whisper in his hair that he is alright, that they’re both alright, and that they can handle everything that’s going on right now.

And Bad himself, well. After leaving the town, his nightmares about the night of the ritual stopped almost completely. They come rarely, only when the anxiety gets really bad. Before, in the forest, Bad had them pretty often. It’s one of the reasons he mostly slept not as himself, but in the minds of the animals.

2) Littering

Bad will not maim someone for not getting a candy wrapper in a trashcan, especially if there are people around. But if someone leaves a big mess in the nature, or even (*gasp*) does it regularly, Bad can and will try and teach them a lesson. As in: pull a cautionary (and probably slightly terrifying) prank on the misbehaving person.

It doesn’t always work out as Bad intended, and may even scare some people off anything relating to nature for good, but, according to Bad, it’s still “a fun and useful little hobby to have :3”.

3) Rat

Rat takes a looong time to warm up to any other animals that infringe on her territory. And Skeppy might be a little shit (and his own rights for Bad are debatable) but he is Rat’s territory still (by approximation from Bad). So, she can gatekeep Skeppy a little bit. Not as much as she does Bad, but the man gotta know his place – Rat comes before other dogs for him too.

4) Tree climbing and strength

Oh, Bad can an will climb down a tree like a full-on creepy creature he is: head down, using only his claws, with Skeppy tucked under one arm. Maybe not even upside down, if Skeppy is lucky, and wasn’t too annoying about wanting to stay up on the tree for the night :D

5) Meeting other spn creatures

Oh, that’s a big question (: Yes, they do meet other cryptids, befriend some, and get in trouble with some, and deal with a handful of new and old spn troubles :D

I always thought that Bad and Skeppy’s life after the main story can make a series of short stories (or one big episodic one) dealing with exactly that: the guys traveling around, meeting other cryptids, learning more about themselves and the world, trying to build a life between human and supernatural crisis going on. Just like In The Dark it can based on the mix between the real life and the minecraft-verse events.

I wanted to focus more on finishing the main story first, though, so these stories are not as sought through, I didn’t even write down any of them yet :D

But if you have more concrete questions, ideas, or suggestions (about a specific person, or a specific thing happening) – write me, I’ll think about it, and how it can work with the theme and worldbuilding I have in mind.

6) Stealing + Protectiveness

Skeppy can sometimes forget about, ahem, moral principles, or human decency… emphasis oh “human”. He’s nature and different worldview it gives, it seeps through in his life and actions even more with age. Especially after he’s been away from actual people for a long while. So, I guess, he might at times steal something that is very important to someone, or do something that could be considered weird or rude in general.

And if Bad really needs something, or is in danger – all rules are down. If there is no one to reality check Skeppy, he might proceed to walk on heads, and commit risky and reckless crimes just to help or save Bad.

They both are quite bad with that, the protecting each other thing. Bad, tho, can be more fiscally violent in his protectiveness.

7) Adrenaline and rollercoasters

Well, it’s not that Bad likes adrenaline specifically, he’s just very curious, likes to try new things, and is almost unkillable. So he can just- just go for everything that’s interesting for him with reckless abandon, and if it goes wrong – welp. Bones can heal limbs can regrow, and the cool abandoned caves will not explore themselves. He’ll have to learn to ease up with lack of selfcare though. Because Bad can’t always leave Skeppy to fend for himself, while he heals, and Skeppy does NOT like seeing Bad getting hurt so much, and not caring about himself at all.

This probably comes back to Bad dealing with his spn nature and learning to make peace between it and himself. And to his anxiety, and unhealthy coping mechanisms.

And hey, it’s the same for Skeppy and his lack of adequate moral compass at times :D

There will be a lot of tension and growing they’d have to do in regards to all this.

Also Skeppy is the one who’s really into chasing the thrills :D Man spent nearly half a year annoying probably-murderous-forest-spirit just for little not-boring fun, jeez :DD

Rollercoasters are a no go, tho. They go up in the air, real high, and, once again, Skeppy and highs do not mix, they do not mingle, they will not have tea parties (with or without bears). Unless, of course, Skeppy really needs to prove something. Then he’ll go on a ride, and die an honorable death, and will never admit he screamed all the way through it.

8) Dates

(*insert an innuendo from Skeppy here*) But, ahm, actually I’d say they love going on picnics: getting food, and hanging around in the nature for a while.

And I honestly donno what I like to think about the most… I just really enjoy the vibe and the atmosphere of the whole story, and how Bad and Skeppy interact in general.

It all is a real delight to write about :D
