So I've been following this one guy who gives really good writing advice, but lately he's been: telling people it's OK to skip the Intermission in Homestuck; defending bad writing as a "structural issue" (those poor writers, it's not their fault they've structured their story / writing process in a bad way); priding himself on making a half-assed "unfinished-on-purpose" comic review. This person was my main source of writing advice, so I don't know where to turn to. Any recommendations?

The only other webcomic review guys I’m aware of are the Bad Webcomics Wiki, but if you think I’m too nice on writers, they might be up your speed anyway and oh my god they just posted a review of a SpiderForest comic. Guess it’s time for

The Webcomic Review Reviews Webcomic Reviews

So, this is a review of a SpiderForest comic called “The Guide to a Healthy Relationship” which is a comic about LGBT people, and it’s being reviewed by the Bad Webcomics Wiki, so obviously there’s going to be a whole bunch of slurs, so consider that a content warning and I’m putting the rest of this behind a ReadMore

This is going to be slightly disjointed because the BWW review is disjointed, but I’ll do my best

We’re already in some factual trouble right on line one, since TGtaHR is a traditional webcomic and not a long-scroll mobile-friendly webtoon, nor is it hosted on webtoons.com. Is this nitpicky? Maybe a little, but we’re off to a poor start here.

This comic is just under 200 pages.

I feel like if you’re going to write a big thing attacking a webcomic’s story, you should try to have some kind of understanding of what that story is. I know what the story of Sinfest is, and Sinfest is a confusing nightmare.

Okay, so maybe the reason you think this story is bad is because it’s 2deep4u.

So, in the space of about twenty pages, we learn that Apollo had a friend named Julian who killed himself, and then we cut ahead to Julian drinking on the job, going to a party, taking drunks, and waking up naked in the bathtub covered in beer bottles, and the living room is full of too-hot-for-tumblr passed-out drunks. The Bad Webcomics Wiki calls this “Softcore porn that is never brought up again”, because the Bad Webcomics Wiki is written by high school dropouts for an audience they presume has never read the comic proper.

This debauchery is never brought up again because it’s not relevant to the plot, it’s relevant to the character. Apollo is fucked up because his friend killed himself when he was a teenager, and he deals with being fucked up by retreating into sex, drugs, and rock and roll. That’s what’s being established here. Also being established if you’re paying attention: Apollo has scars on his chest.

In chapter 1, Apollo goes to a party, the entirety of which is dedicated to him walking around naked, and we get a bunch of obviously sexual shots of his dick, clearly catering to the author's gay fetish. His boss goes to his place to check on him, and it is revealed he is a hoarder. This never comes up again.

1. In this scene, there are two panels where you can see Apollo’s penis, one panel where you can see someone’s vomit-covered dick, and two panels where you can see a woman’s breasts. None of these panels of flacid dicks or sagging boobs are sexual, though. The dicks are unpowered, it doesn’t make a bit of difference guys, the balls are inert.

2. What the fuck is a “gay fetish” and how it different from just “being gay”.

3. I don’t know the author, even though we’re both in SpiderForest, so I don’t know where Dani The Carutor lies in the whole gender spectrum thingamabob, but I will note that “Dani” is usually short for Danielle. So maybe it’s not a safe assumption that the author is a man? I dunno. That’s just me, guessing people’s genders by screen name is hard, so I try not to lest I embarrass myself.

4.So, when you say Apollo is a “hoarder”, you link to a page showing his room is disgusting and covered in garbage

Is your takeaway from these panels....that Apollo is some kind of fanatic garbage collector? That his room is full of garbage because he actively works at having as much garbage as possible because he wants it?

There are a couple pages explaining Apollo's purple special snowflake eyes with some snowflake "disability".

Apollo has Ocular Albinism, which is a real condition that really exists, and really does give you purple eyes. It also gives you major vision problems, which are the context in which it gets brought up, because Apollo needs help crossing the road because he can’t see well enough in the light. So I don’t know what the scare quotes around “disability” are for. He can’t see. You could, if you were so inclined, connect this plot point with the way the chapter titles are named after mental conditions, and start to formulate some coherent critique with the seemingly cavalier way this comic uses disability, but that would require thought. It might even require research into difficult topics, because you’d ideally not want to make a fool of yourself talking about things you didn’t understand well enough to talk competently about.

Chapter 2 is the most pointless, as it is basically there to confirm what we already know so the author can insert a cringy buzzword (see image below)

Okay, so a couple of things

1. In what fucking universe is “tranny” an SJW buzzword? What the fuck are you even talking about?

2. Having the protagonist of your comic say someone is “smart, for a tranny” is like the least SJW thing you could possibly do.

3. Perhaps “Apollo is asking someone for help but casually insults her causing her to leave” is some kind of “character” moment? The author of this review is so /pol/-poisoned that they have no ability to understand “context” or “characterization” or basically any thing that exists.

4.Your list of the comic’s characters includes this bon mot:

So what the fuck? That’s so stupid I’d think it was an intentionally hypocritical joke if I had any reason to believe you were capable of it.

Chapter 3 is dedicated to revealing the boyfriend shit

I should point out that Apollo and Julian being boyfriends is something the BWW invented, the comic itself clearly states they were “best friends”, not boy friends. Couple of dudes being prudes.

Apollo believes that Julian faked his own death, which fucked up Apollo for years, and now that they’ve met each other Julian keeps ghosting him. Apollo’s motives for chasing Julian around are extremely clear.

That’s a scene transition, bay-bee!

Apollo finally gets ahold of Julian. Julian blows him off and Apollo gives up. There’s then a clear scene transition to Apollo, at a restaurant, talking about what we just saw. This is a perfectly clear scene transition, with a transitory panel and everything to indicate that this is the next day. It’s certainly more clear than Apollo waking up in jail in chapter 2 which you skipped over. Are you actually reading this comic at all?

You are such a fucking moron, holy shit.

Julian got beat up for being trans. It’s unclear if he’s actually trans or just a feminine-looking cis dude, but regardless it was bad enough to traumatize him and this all happened when he knew Apollo, who calls Julian his “best friend”, and says things like

There’s literally two dots here, and you’re unable to connect them. Galia even has the same hairstyle as Julian to make it visually obvious This Is What The Reference and you still missed it.

Julian and Apollo walk around the woods in their underwear for no reason whatsoever. Julian takes some drugs or something, and passes out?

Hm. Why does Julian go outside at night? I wonder if that’s explained in the comic?

Oh, I see. He went outside to smoke. But why did Apollo go outside at night?

Oh, he was looking out the window and saw Julian mysteriously go off into the woods. I guess that’s explained, too. I guess you just missed those pages

Julian takes some drugs or something, and passes out?

Huh, I wonder why Julian was asleep

Oh, he has Insomnia, so he took something called Halcion. I wonder what that is.

Oh, it’s a prescription insomnia medication. And you shouldn’t take alcohol with it, wow Julian is dealing with a super pushy alcoholic I should file that information away for later, like how knowing Wellbutrin’s side effects in teenagers were critical to understand Drop Out. Luckily webcomics are comics, on the web, and I can look this up!

He is then woken up by the fatty side character punching him. Somehow, Julian destroyed the kitchen, even though he was passed out - this is never explained, and makes no fucking sense

Sigh.

So, here are some hints as to what happened.

Julian has bruises all over his body, which you have consistently failed to notice.

Daniel, Julian’s friendly boyfriend, has like no negative reaction whatsoever to Brandon, some random dude, punching Julian in the fucking face

He even takes Brandon’s side and basically implants the idea that Julian did it into Julian’s head, and that last panel is rather threatening.

Julian took insomnia medicine, and fell asleep, and then got wrongfully blamed for destroying the kitchen by Daniel, who know’s that Julian was passed out and couldn’t have done it. Who actually did destroy the kitchen is a mystery, but Daniel is the most likely culprit.

it transitions into this trippy bullshit with blood, and body horror, and Julian's hair is suddenly short

It’s short because it’s a flashback to when he was a teenager, and he had short hair when he was a teenager so that literate people are able to understand this without getting confuzzled.

Apollo turning into Daniel in this trippy dream sequence is also pretty relevant!

Also, we have random nudity and sexualization of this sick person.

No, we have reveals that he’s in worse physical shape than we thought.

By the way, in your character list, you describe Daniel as

Daniel (Side Character): He may as well be a wall. This guy has no personality whatsoever. No quirks, no interests, no purpose outside of causing superficial melodrama.

If you’ve made it all the way to this point and not picked up on Daniel being an abusive boyfriend and the primary antagonist of the story, you may be beyond hope.

The rest of the chapter is Julian being angsty, and SO ILL while everyone talks about how weird he is

Again, that’s very clearly and obviously not actually what’s happening in the story.

What’s happening isn’t “Julian is sick lol”, it’s “Daniel is working to turn everyone against Julian”. That’s why he destroyed the kitchen and blamed Julian for it; to ensure that the other boys all thought Julian was a nutjob and thus keep them from reaching out to Julian and providing Julian with a guide to a healthy relationship instead of the abusive one he’s currently in. Your inability to read even slightly between the lines isn’t just distressing in terms of your inability to think critically about stories, it’s maybe worrisome re your ability to think about the real world, too. How are you this dense? It’s like watching Star Wars and not picking up that the empire and the rebellion don’t like each other. No wonder you’re confused!

Chapter 5 is still in the works. It jumps the shark right away with Apollo getting drunk and sleeping with Julian's boyfriend. The author makes Apollo the guilty party and not the boyfriend

The comic is fairly clear that Daniel is the bad guy

This webtoon is so convoluted there is no saving it at this point. Each chapter is titled after some mental illness such as 'Monophobia', 'Anxiety', 'Psychosis'. You think they would have some thematic meaning with each chapter being about one of those things. Nope, they're just titled like that to show how EDGY this webtoon is! You can taste the cringe. Julian's mental shit has no rhyme or reason - he will act sick when the plot calls for it, and if it has anything to do with the chapter's title, it is also crazy inaccurate.

The author of this review somehow managed to read the entirety of The Guide to a Healthy Relationship without picking up that Daniel was an abuser. The comic thus seems convoluted to him because he thinks all the things happening are random events without rhyme or reason because he has completely failed to notice the whole plot, which is not subtle. Just....fucking staggering incompetence, as a critic.

Guess you’re stuck with me, anon.

Dion Headcanons I’m pretty much writing as they come to me

Favourite flower: Lavender

Favourite food: Spiced Butternut Squash Soup

Favourite drink: Jasmine Blooming Tea

He’s super duper shy

Literally Asra will catch his eye and he’ll be a blushing mess

Craves affection and cuddles

He is found with Faust cuddling on the couch pretty much whenever he can. He loves her so much. She loves how he’s always so soft because of his knitwear

House is filled with piles of yarn, knitting, etc and Faust loves to snuggle in them

Don’t look under the bed, there’s so many presents under there for Asra that he hasn’t dared to give him

Not like Asra doesn’t already know, but he pretends not to not to embarrass him

Mainly scarves woven with protection spells because Dion gets so worried when he’s on his trips, but Asra seems to like the scarf he already has so it makes Dion freak out and hide it in the pile

When he met and “knew” Muriel, the first thing he did was knit him a jumper

Tall boy must be cold without a shirt afterall?

But he’s ultra intimidated by our Mountain Man so doesn’t dare gift it

Asra takes it to him instead which makes Dion blush so bad

Loves all animals tbh, he’s just so non-threatening they seem to gravitate towards him

Find him cuddled up with Inanna, head resting on her fur and them both asleep

He always has crystals on him to help boost his confidence and magic, but now he always has a little pouch of myrrh attached to him as well

Asra loves making him blush, he’s the one who can do it the most easily bc 1. Dion only has eyes for Asra (not that he would ever say so) and 2. Asra is so cheeky and mischievous it’s easy

Asra will just hug him from behind and Dion will be bright red and stammering

Plz tease him, his face is so cute

Has a cross stitch above his armchair that says “Fuck you Goatman”. Very out of character for this shy bab but Asra was cackling and hung it up

When Julian broke in the shop Dion was lowkey trying not to cry. He froze up and couldn’t say much and he hates himself for acting like that

Still very wary around Julian, he’s not good with such a big personality and feels very awkward. Would want to hide behind Asra for comfort but stands tall (as best as this short baby can at least)

Used to be very self conscious about his body because he has bad scars from his top surgery (I hc that the doctor in Julian would be so annoyed if he ever saw how badly they were done)

From one of his travels Asra brought Dion a cup that he loved, it was so pretty and a marble black, with purple snakes etched into it

One day Faust was playing and didn’t realise that the cup was on the side, and it cracked

He was gutted of course (but Faust got lots of cuddles so she knew she was okay bc he couldn’t be mad at his best girl)

Asra told Dion about kintsugi, when broken ceramics are fixed and cracks are painted in gold, showing that there is still beauty in what is broken

Dion got his scars tattooed in gold asap, and it became his signature colour, always wearing gold eyeliner and painting his toenails, gained a lot more confidence in the way he looked

When he comes back, he tries to hide his scars from Asra, thinks that he doesn’t know about them, or the fact that he is trans

But of course Asra knows, he was there when he got the tattoos done...

When he gets his first outfit from Nadia it’s low cut and shows his scars easily. Will be conflicted between being confident and happy in himself and what people will think when they see. But his usual cloak has been taken away, so gulps and shyly makes his way out

Of course Nadia is kind enough to not say anything and he slowly becomes okay and not worry. His scars are beautiful afterall

Nadia is less pleased about the fact Dion prefers not to wear shoes. He’ll wear them if he has to, but feels more grounded and connected to his powers when he is barefoot. Will wear the shoes he got but as soon as he’s alone he will take them off

If he’s had a bad day you know he’s in the forest, sat against a tree, eyes shut and focusing himself again. He specialises in craft magic and crystals so isn’t sure why he gets so much comfort and power from being in the forest barefoot, but he always gravitates towards it

When Asra sees him in it for the first time in the palace he does a double take, but it so happy to see him confident like this. Also he is so cuteeee

Dion would be very conflicted when he saw the memory of Asra and Julian. This wasn’t the Asra he knew, would Asra treat him that way? Why is he like that? Dion wouldn’t be able to keep up, he’s way too shy and intimidated by that sort of thing. Uses it to confirm that he didn’t have a chance with Asra because he is so unlike Julian and would not be okay with that sort of thing.

Would take a long time to stop worrying about it tbh, even if he and Asra got together, it would pop up in the back of his mind and make him self conscious. He just doesn’t feel good enough, when he’s all Asra wanted

Sometimes feels like he doesn’t need a familiar because he’s so close with Faust (but he really does want that connection with someone)

Because she’s looking from the outside Faust isn’t as clueless as Asra is about Dion’s feelings, but doesn’t say anything because she is so close with Dion as well

Will drop teasing hints though

She’s the one who told Asra about the scarves under the bed. He sneakily took one and put it in his bag. Whenever he’s on a trip, once out of eye sight he will put it on, liking the comfort it brings him. Dion only realises when he sees Asra in the fountain

After some time of being together, Dion will occasionally make teasing remarks to Asra, takes him a lot of confidence so it doesn’t happen often, but when it does it’s brilliant.

Asra won’t stop grinning and will smother him in kisses and/or tickles

Just wants a cosy life in the shop with Asra, spending evenings cuddling, reading or knitting, on the couch by the fire

All the excitement from the story will be more than enough for Dion, just wants to rest and enjoy every calm moment with Asra (and Faust)

I can imagine Faust finding the engagement ring Asra buys and deciding to give it to Dion when Asra takes too long to propose.

Dion will start laughing, once he’s over the shock, and give Faust cuddles because she’s just the cutest and is so excited because she obviously did a good job.

Asra will walk in to see what’s so funny

Dion will just turn with a smirk, hold out the ring and let him know that Faust proposed. As in, Faust did and Dion said yes to her

Just to see Asra blush with embarrassment and because of the teasing

Obviously will end up in a cuddle pile and lots of kisses and of course a “yes”

Faust will pop her head up from in between them, “good girl?”

Asra will kiss the top of her head, “best girl”

14/9/’19

So today I was going to go to Logan Pride with some friends, but that didn’t end up happening because I babysat instead. It worked out, though because the person I was going to go with didn’t get to go either. Maybe another time.

My brother had his Homecoming dance today and didn’t have a group to hang out with, so my parents went along with him and his girlfriend. I spent the day watching my siblings. Well, really the only one who needed me to watch them was my youngest sister, but my little brother doesn’t mind hanging out with me either, so that’s what we did.

I went and picked up flowers for my brother and his date, and hung around the house for the most part. I should have cleaned my room, but I can’t find the motivation or the energy. Not to mention that my dysthymia seems to be coming back. I did get to dress up in my most emo looking outfit, complete with spikes, a purple mohawk, and dark eye paint. I even wore my trench coat when I went out.

In the evening my little sister went to hang out with my aunt and I went to hang out with my friend. He is moving to a different city in a few days and hosted a “going away” party in his current apartment. He ha a few of his other friends there, so being the introvert I am I didn’t stay too long. We had pizza and played some games. One was a board game called Labyrinth and the other was Cards Against Humanity. I had never played it before, but I’d seen a lot about it online and I knew it was essentially the offensive/uncensored version of Apples to Apples. I did not win.

But here’s a cool thing! So the group was small and consisted of: 1-my best friend’ 2-his sister, who I’ve been around a lot but I’m not explicitly out to; 3-her boyfriend (?) who I’d just met that night and didn’t seem to know how to refer to me (he mostly just avoided using pronouns where he could but also used a hesitant and uncertain he when it was unavoidable); 4/5 my friend’s friends, a married couple I have met previously (when my hair was longer and I didn’t pass quite so well) who bother referred to me as a she; and 6/7-another couple (unmarried, I think) that I had never before met who seemed super chill. Anyway, I felt comfortable enough in the group that I cracked a couple of jokes about being trans. One was when we got a black card saying, “----. High five bro!” One of the cards given said, “Penises.” I turned to my friend and said, “trans male tears.” He laughed and one of his friends that I’d just met (we’ll call him Julian for simplicity) said, “this card says trans rights.” Another joke I cracked is when Julain’s girlfriend and the wife of the married couple had some sort of solidarity going on between them and said (I don’t remember why), “Uteruses before duderuses!” and, “Ovaries before brovaries!” I said, “but what if someone checks both boxes?” It wasn’t loud and mostly to myself, but Julian heard me. It was at that moment he turned to me and said, “by the way, we didn’t really meet. What’s your name?” I introduced myself and we shook hands. Julian said, “nice to meet you , man.” What I think happened is that he picked up on the (not-so-subtle) hints that I’m a trans man and decided to give me a little bit of gender affirmation. What a dude.

Long exposition aside, it was a fun night. I left after our last round of CAH because I really don’t like playing games and we were about to play another one. I can handle some games, especially if they’re not fast paced and I’m familiar with how they work, but I’d had my fill of new games that day and the more people we brought in the more stressful it was getting for me. So I politely took my leave. I then went to Walmart to get my house key copied so I could have one myself. Up until this point I just either used the spare key or hoped that the door was unlocked. But not anymore!

post lord of shadows thoughts and predictions

okay time to round up all this shit in one post. this is still all over the place though sorry, it’s in no order just writing shit down as it comes to me. this is going to be super long and spoilery so it’s under a read more

1. I enjoyed Lord of Shadows much more than Lady Midnight. LM was good but it felt very bogged down in character and plot introduction, not its fault it had a lot to introduce lmao. Wasn’t super excited to read los after lm cause it wasn’t that memorable, but now I’m dying for Queen of Air and Darkness. 2. Since LM was (I’m pretty sure been a while) told exclusively through the older kids povs, ty and livvy felt super young despite only be 2 years younger than Julian and Emma, but they really felt like teenagers who are just tired of being treated and seen as children in this one. 3. Um I really feel for Malcolm. Like a lot. Listen I know he went a little of the deep end there, but no one could argue against that he loves Annabel more than anything. All the diary entries and the house he built for them honestly kill me. I really don’t believe he left her alone on purpose which makes me sad because Annabel died believing he betrayed her and that was one of the reasons she killed him. I’m excited to see him before he knew the truth about Annabel in TLH. 4. Speaking of Annabel holy shit. Something is definitely not right with her. I like how powerful she is and she was pretty endearing at the end, she actually kind’ve reminds me of cecily. also I’m dying cause I just remembered while writing this that everyone thought that Livvy looked alike Annabel kill me. I definitely didn’t think she meant to do what she did at the end, obvs an explanation is not an excuse 😏, but she lashes out and then gets scared. she seems to regret killing livvy the moment after it happens and I’m interested to see how this affects her. 5. So I guess with no inquisitor that exile thing is not gonna work. but I still believe that cortana will have something to do with breaking the parabatai bond…it can cut through anything after all. 6. Speaking of cutting through anything EMMA FUCKING BROKE THE MORTAL SWORD. LIKE THAT CAN NOT BE GOOD AT ALL. AND WHAT WAS THAT BLACK SHIT INSIDE OF IT??? 7. I’m scared what Livvy’s death is going to do to Julian because the guy has really been slipping down the mental health slope for a while now. not gonna lie, Julian was TERRIFYING in this book. he really doesn’t give a shit about anyone that isn’t Emma or family. also the red flag for me was when him and Emma were arguing and he smashed that glass, like that is not a good way to take out your anger, but I mean Emma immediately puts a hole in the wall so they’re both not the best examples for how to act in a healthy relationship. also, despite what he told Emma, he seems to be absolutely fine with breaking every other parabatai bond just to be with Emma. listen I love Julian but he seems to be slipping a lil into antagonist territory. 8. Not that Emma wasn’t cutthroat either. she didn’t even consider mercy when it came to Annabel, she was gonna slice right through her, u know until the unseelie king spirited her away. 9. Kit and Ty were adorable. also has it been confirmed that they’re the Wicked Power protagonists? because if not I’m p sure they are. 10. I was so happy to be back at the London Institute. I loved all the little tid and tlh hints everywhere (jem and will’s height charts 😭😭😭) um so Bridget is still super alive somehow uuuuhh?? how??? jessamine is a darling brat as usual. love her. also that line where Magnus said they weren’t the first to think to burn down the blackthorn manor?? tlh reference maybe? 11. while Mark/Emma will always hold a place in my heart I really warmed up to Emma/Julian and Mark/Cristina/Kieran. btw I really feel like that’s gonna end in polyamory, I think cc has been wanting to write and actual poly relationship ( I love herongraystairs but I don’t think it technically counts going by only canon) for a while now, and while only Mark/Cristina and Mark/Kieran were introduced in lm, Cristina and Kieran def gotta a lot closer in this book and seemed to have a lot of romantic tension. anyway new ot3. 12. if u know anything about me u know I’M A SLUT FOR JEM AND TESSA. anytime they were mentioned I started breathing heavy. still sad they didn’t actually appear in this one, but it seems set up for them to appear in the final one speaking of… 13. listen I love Magnus and I want no harm to come to him but TESSA IS SICK I CANT DEAL WITH THIS. LIKE CAN HER AND JEM JUST BE HAPPY AND HEALTHY WITHOUT SOME INCURABLE ILLNESS HANGING OVER THEM. and like what other warlocks have been affected??? IS CATARINA OKAY? 14. y'all that guy with green skin has gotta be ragnor there is not doubt in my mind. cc has always regretted killing him and I’ve been waiting for this tree colored man to return for a while now. I want to know why he’s in hiding tho and he like bolted when Magnus showed up on the scene. 15. EY YO FUCK THE COHORT AND FUCK ZARA. at first I thought they were a little too cartoony of villains, like there was no complexity to them, they just seem like straight up douche nozzles all the time, but then I remembered that they’re based off real issues right now and people really do think like this sooo. but like Zara is absolutely the worst, how dare and her awful buddies talk shit to my children. everytime anything came out of her mouth I was like-LETS GO. OUTISDE. RIGHT NOW. TRIAL BY COMBAT, YOU LYING SNAKE. 16. I really loved the seelie and unseelie courts and their differences. like I agree cc is a little long winded, but her writing has greatly improved since CoB and it really showed in this one for me. I like the unseelie king and I hope we get to see more of him in the next book, and maybe more of Kieran’s brothers, wouldn’t want to let all those cute faerie boys go to waste. 17. as much as I hate to say it, I’m p sure that the seelie court member that was stolen by the unseelie was Sebastian’s and the seelie queen’s kid. LIKE I HOPE IM SO WRONG AND THAT THAT FUCKING KID DOESNT EXIST BUT ALL SIGNS SEEM TO BE POINTING TO HELL CHILD. 18. speaking of Sebastian, the way cc was talking about him before los came out, I was really expecting something big about him to happen, like his ghost (or demon seed ugh) he was barely even mentioned except closer to the end there. 19. oh yeah I can’t believe Clary’s dead???? like I’ve never been a big fan of clary or jace but the way she talked about like she’s already accepted it killed me. like if this happens it’s going to ruin jace. 20. I’ve become very endeared to Dru throughout los, I think she’s my fav blackthorn besides Julian. she’s chubby which is fucking GREAT and tho the whole pretend I’m not 13 thing with Jaime made me a lil uncomfy, he didn’t really flirt with her or anything and their friendship was really cute. it seems to me cc is setting her up with that Ash kid that appeared for 2 seconds. YO @emmascxrstairs JUST ROCKED MY WHOLE WORLD AND SAID THAT ASH IS THE DEMON SPAWN AND IM MAD BECAUSE OF COURSE HE IS LMAO FLEW RIGHT PAST ME. 21. that’s one thing that kills me with cc books, is that other than the main romances it’s usually super easy to tell who ends with who, and that she feels the need to pair EVERYONE OFF. lmao I was actually wondering why a love interest hadn’t been introduced for Livvy yet (Kit doesn’t count cause after that first kiss, it was real obvs him and ty were gonna be the thing) and then she died and I was like…oh…that’s why. 22. like many predicted, Diana is trans and im crying she’s amazing. her and Gwyn caught me off guard but I’m not gonna lie, they’re really cute. 23. also omg I just thought with livvy dying, what if Julian blames it on himself and the parabatai curse kill me. 24.so yeah all in all 👌👌👌 very good would recommend. now time to get fucking pumped for the last hours

#feel free to ask me about anything but i think i covered fucking everything lmao #lord of shadows #the dark artifices #the mortal instruments #los spoilers
