im quite sad its become a trend in the fire emblem fanbase to hate three houses for being too popular. ive been into this series since i was a kid and i think its awesome wonderful and amazing that a game in the series was able to take off to such success and new heights and im so happy for the series
(also yknow. all the sales means we're going to get like. way more fire emblem games. whats the issue)
like i dunno whenever i try to bring up three houses in a fire emblem space im usually just met with responses of "oh that game is So overrated" "uugh its so slow the monastery is just padding until you get to a battle" "engage is so underrated and miles better than it" "the storys not even that good, people are just convincing themselves it is" blah blah blah
i know they wanna sound different but they just sound rude and kind of boring honestly
i get peoples main reason for hating 3h: its popular, super popular, different, and a lot of people only play it and no other fe games
but like..... i want to put that into perspective:
the nintendo switch is one of the best selling video game consoles of all time. there are literally millions upon millions of people who only have a nintendo switch and no other console, letalone a 3ds or a gameboy advance. many people who only play three houses literally just have a switch
the only other fire emblem game on switch is engage (which i love!!), an anniversary game celebrating the series thats intentionally parallel to three houses by being lighthearted and silly. while it is amazing, most people love three houses for its character and stories, they dont Want something like engage cause its the total opposite of three houses.
actually, i believe in an interview nintendo confirmed 3h and engage were developed at the same time and intended to be parallels
and now a lot of arguments i hear
"just get a 3ds" thats a Lot Of Money. i mean i love awakening with all my heart its such a fantastic amazing game. but that is like. a big investment. thats a reallyyy big investment
"just emulate it" not everyone has a computer, and outside of tumblr (and twitter, the most popular place for piracy) many feel uncomfortable pirating something. and if they dont have a computer, not many people wanna risk downloading potentially suspicious stuff on their phone
"just mod your 3ds" combines the above issues. you need a computer for that. and a proper sd card. and, you know, a 3ds. its actually really expensive to mod your 3ds memes aside. a lot of people love three houses as a fun fantasy story they can get into, they dont wanna make all these leaps and jumps to try the other games
"just watch a playthrough" is a LOT better argument!! and i agree and i do that! ive been watching a path of radiance longplay lately its awesome! but this brings me to my next point
acting like someone isnt a "true fan" of the series because they havent played every game... is such an insult to the series, and its games
in fact, if you think like that, you honestly just view these games as content rather than games honestly??? i mean. is one game just not enough?? people cant just enjoy one video game???
fire emblem games are long and have a Lot of stuff in them. im personally very slow at playing games so i can take a month or so to beat a game, and a lot of others do too! life has a lot of stuff to do, games to many are more of a distraction or fun hobby
and that takes me back to my point. expecting someone to literally just grind and clear through a whole checklist of Really Long SRPGS is like. dumb! honestly!
like. you have somehow taken the fun act of "playing a video game" and turned it into literal work. why would you do that.
like most of the people that made three houses so well selling are just... grown ups who have a nintendo switch and wanted a fun fantasy story driven rpg. why do they have to bend over backwards and spend all their money to play like 10 other video games to appease some angry person on the internet trying to convince themself that 3h is bad
idk, i think its dumb and im disappointed in the fire emblem fanbase that hating three houses has become a trend. i think we should appreciate that our series is able to soar to such heights and that we are bound to get a lot more fire emblem in the future. i love the series and want whats best for it so this makes me so happy
oh and also, yknow, three houses is literally fantastic. like one of the best games on switch and one of my all time favorite games. i mean i like awakening more but i dont really care if someone hasnt played awakening. live your life have fun its not that deep yknow??
also. come on. we have like, the concerningly angry fanbase of a certain nintendo fighting game that is mad nintendo put nintendo characters in the game (but fine with a disney character and like 20 square enix characters) breathing down our neck constantly. we already got enough drama why do we have to fight amidst ourselves????????

to add on to the humans are space orcs/earth is the universe's australia, sensing. my therapist has recently explained that its not normal the way i know who and where someone is by their footsteps. not just the sound, but the vibrations. if someone isnt purposely walking on light feet, i can tell who and where they are, even with headphones blaring. imagine a human on a ship and the awe-filled terror itd earn from their non-human crewmates.
edit: ive realized i wasnt clear enough in my intentions. im not saying "if you can tell peoples footsteps apart, youve been ✨️ T R A U M A T I Z E D ✨️ d-(^♡^)-b ". its about the inherent panic in Not hearing the steppies and therefore Not having the time to prepare yourself for whoever might be approaching and essentially being ambushed. also, being able to tell if someone is normalTM, happy, sad, et cetera. the combined terror of not being given time to make oneself "presentable" for whoevers coming, And Also whoever has just seemingly teleported is fucking pissed, which is never good. Anyways, enjoy!!! \(^o^)/
Gilith enters the library, searching for Human Raven. They seem to be found most often either here or in one of the many gardens on the ship. Human Alex said he'd likely find them here today.
Gilith pokes his head through the doorway, not seeing Human Raven, but before he can move on, a voice calls out from one of the high-backed chairs decorating the library.
"Hello Lithy, what do you need?"
Gilith sputters, "Wha- Human Raven, how did you know it was me?" Gilith makes his way over to the chair that held Human Raven in a twisted knot that, when Human Raven stood up, would surely leave a horrifying crunch Human Alex had likened to a human candy that exploded in one's mouth.
"You've got some loud stompers, Lithy."
"I do not know what that means, Human Raven."
Raven stands, causing Gilith to flinch at many snaps and crackles of their bones settling into place, and smiles up at his towering form.
"What did you need?"
Gilith notices more and more Human Raven's greetings. He thought maybe they could hear him coming, but they greeted him while wearing ear speakers, the volume so loud, Gilith could hear it from a few feet away.
Humans did not have psychic skills, and the only other human who seemed capable of a preemptive greeting was Human Alex. The two seemed to share all of their off-hours, so maybe that was where he could find his answers.
Gilith scoured the many gardens, stopping just outside of the doorway. He could hear Human Alex and Human Raven chattering to each other, but neither seemed to notice his presence.
In an attempt not to disturb them, he walked with what Human Bea had described as "tip-toes". A challenging feat, considering his round flat feet, but he managed.
Both Human Raven and Human Alex had their backs to him, so he coughed in the same way Human Bea often did to get everyone's attention.
The reaction he got was unexpected when both Human Raven and Human Alex flinched so hard their shoulders seemed to lock.
"My apologies! I didn't mean to startle you," he rushed over, but stopped short when they both flinched again. He recoiled his hand.
"It's ok, Lithy," Raven says, voice slightly choked. "Just give us a sec."
"Oh. Okay." Gilith turned his eyes down.
"What-" Alex started, his voice sounding as though it was rubbed raw. He cleared his throat and tried again. "What can we do for you, Gilith?"
"I did not have anything specific to talk to you about. I wanted to..." he trails off. "I wanted to inform you of the new plants we are picking up at the next trade planet."
Gilith feels his face twist with the lie, but now didn't seem like a good time to ask.
His desire to understand, however, doesn't fade after the incident. It only makes his hunger grow.
Instead of bothering Human Alex or Human Raven, Gilith decides to ask Human Bea, who does not sense him before he greets her.
"Hello, Human Bea."
"Yes, hello, Gilith. Is everything okay?"
"I have question."
Bea tilts her head. "Ask away."
"Are you- humans- able to detect someone before you see them?"
Bea's face softens into an aching sort of frown. "Not naturally."
"What do you mean?"
She takes a breath, seemingly preparing herself. "Well, most people are able to live in a relatively safe place. But some people aren't as lucky. Some people have to memorize the falls of others' feet. It's a learned survival tactic."
"I don't understand," Gilith says, his face wrinkling in confusion.
"Some people aren't safe, so for the ones who weren't born with the good luck of a safe home, they have to know who and where someone is. They have to know if they need to hide or prepare themself. They have to know if they're in danger or not."
Gilith feels his whole body go slack as a wave of sadness washes over him at the memory of Human Raven and Human Alex's reaction to his sudden appearance.
"I have loud stompers."
Bea's face scrunches up as though she's trying not to laugh. "You do. You have safe stompers, too."

Ok this might be an unpopular opinion but someones gotta say it...
Cassandra is a better Casey Jones than Casey Jr
Ive gotta be honest... i think casey jr is a kinda mid and i dont particularly think all the fanfare about him is warranted LOL
I want to note real quick that i dont DISLIKE him! He is a good character who only got as much development that a 2 hour movie could give him, and he filled and satisfied the role he needed to play in the movie, but the way the fandom latched onto him over the og casey... kinda makes me raise a brow
(Essay/rant about the prioritization of casey jr vs og casey under the cut :P)
Tumblr media
Fandom spaces love a traumatized boy from the future, and believe me i do too! But the amount of attention given to casey jr after being revealed as casey is a wild amount compared to the amount of attention the original casey gets. Maybe its just me getting into rottmnt after the movie aired, but this seems a little baised?
Not only that, but the amount of... idk the best way i can think to describe it is infantilization of casey jrs character isnt helping my opinion of him. It feels like most content surrounding him babify him and reduce him only to his trauma post movie. I understand that it can be interesting to explore his trauma now that he no longer lives in the literal apocalypse, but it feels strange to see him reduced to someone who cant get around on his own and lives with the turtles when the original pitch for the movies ending has him leave to explore the world, which i feel is very appropriate for him and wish they had kept it in
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the movie when april shows us where the og casey has been and what shes been doing throughout the film, it tells us that casey is friends april which in theory, shouldve also shown us that she and the turtles are friends to some degree as well and should already have her place established within the group as this generations casey jones
Tumblr media
However the final shot of the movie is a group shot of the family+casey jr, which subtlety implies that he's the new casey instead, and that this is the main cast moving forward (should it move forward *sob*). While both caseys being considered in the main cast could be true, it does strike me as a little odd that this was the final direction the rot team decided on for the official ending versus the scrapped ending, especially because it complicates the pre-established canon. It wouldve been one thing if our og casey was a different character, but that isnt the case.. y... (<_<)
Tumblr media
Casey jr is an interesting character though! And i can understand why he appeals to fans, especially as his character post movie is fun to expand on aswell as developing his past involved with future versions of the main5, but one (me lol) could argue that the og casey is just as interesting of a character to delve into as she was involved, when you boil it down, a cult most of her life, and that concept, as well as the guilt she could hold for working with the foot and releasing the shredder, ontop of trying to befriend and gain the turtles and aprils trust are also intriguing concepts that could be explored, yet finding content that mentions her at all beyond her relation to casey jr is scarce
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It feels as though shes been reduced to a background character within the fandom despite being a reoccuring character for the entire show.
For the two seasons of rottmnt that we did get, we are shown just what kind of character casey is and her possible dynamics with the turtles+april. Shes passionate and powerful and beyond determined to prove her worth and reach her goals. Shes also playful and reckless, a side that fits well with the main cast and their humor and, if the show was given more time, couldve developed naturally as the newest addition to the family as most caseys are. I could also argue that her characterization fits that of previous caseys more than casey jrs does (though i will admit that considering the plot of the movie, i cant positively say what hed be like outside of life or death scenarios, but i also cant imagine hes going to make a 180 in personality without it feeling jarring and ooc)
Tumblr media
Now, i wont ignore the fact that her arc was cut horribly short and her involvement in the movie was quite literally a brief mention, both of which definitely play into how under appreciated she is. But at the same time it almost feels like everyone, including the show runners, have willingly pushed her aside for this new boy version to fill the role of casey jones. Hell, even when you look up rottmnt casey jones, cassandra barely shows up. Its casey jr which further proves my point
Idk, TLDR im pretty disappointed that despite being a consistent character for the entire show, no one seems to write or acknowledge her and if she is mentioned, its only relevant to push forward casey jrs character development or a brief cameo. As much as i do love casey jr (i can feel like hes mid and i can like him!) it seems like most people forget about the original casey, or favor casey jr in her place and she deserves more love and credit than shes given!

Well this isnt the way meeting you was meant to go."
Were the first words that slipped from your mouth when you found yourself tied up, sitting on a shitty wooden chair in the interrogation room of the 141 base. The dumb grin that you had was enough to piss of the lieutenant of the group landing you a punch to the face that left you with a bleeding nose and a look of irratation. How you had even gotten to the base was a question they were definitely going to have to ask.
You had disappeared after your initial meeting with laswell and vanish from tge radar. Well tgat was until you showed up at the base, sliding in through a closing door behind a few entering soldiers. You had managed to stay unfound until you diliberately exposed yourself to price, nearly jumpscaring him when you appeared behind him. Doing that also led to your unconsiousness as prices reaction lead him to wacking you full force with his wing into the side wall of his office.
-
Outside the interrogation the other 3 stood, in a full scale conversation while looking through the oneway glass at you. You were just like Laswell described. Fairly tall 6,3 or 6,4 by the looks of it, janky scars that ran over your face in several places, semi-muscular build not too much but a good amount that it was impressive and to top it all off the pointy ears at the side of your head that was being barely cover by the blackish-blue mess of hair you had. They had confiscated the weapons you had on you and taken the burner phones aswell most of which only had laswells number.
"What do we do bout 'im. We cant let him join us we know nothin bout 'im and he aint trustworthy." Soap wasnt wrong with his accusations. There hadnt been much on the file laswell had sent over and even with the new founded information that they were given after the meet up it still wasnt enough to determine on whether you would be able to handle being on a taskforce with other monsters.
The harpy and dragon were quiet for a moment before the slamming of the door open and ghost storming out had them jolting. "How on gods earth did he manage to annoy ghost?" "We should be asking a different question, like where the fucker went" at the sound of soaps words both price and gaz looked at the still open door and the empty interrogation room. Taking it upon himself Gaz entered the room just to make sure you werent just playing tricks only for the door to be shut behind him and locked.
-
"Aint you a pretty bird?"
Gaz wasnt expecting you to still be in the room let alone crouching on the roof but the shock of it gave him a chance to fully look over you. Your skin wasnt normal, instead it had a hint of blue most wouldnt notice. A long tail flicking behind you the same midnight blue colour like your hair and small fangs rest on your bottom lip as you smiled, well attempted to, at him.
"You didnt leave?"
-
This is meh. Do I hate it? Yes. Have i the balls to change? Yes but I wont cuz ive put it off for like 3 weeks now 😭

I think that the switch from reddit to tumblr is particularly difficult for me so far, and i know it's just been a few days, but i wonder if other people are having these issues as well, so i thought it might be a decent idea to write out my thoughts here.
-first off, i was a lurker almost exclusively on reddit. Much more introverted, and i only spoke about things i knew or if i knew id get karma for it (being a person with RSD, i kind of hated downvotes, regardless if they were just "useless internet points" or not).
-tumblr requires you to be more interactive and speak out more with its etiquette, by reblogging and so forth (ive read in a few places that comments sections werent used much before the refugees invaded tumblr, which i think seems like a cool positive)
-while there arent any downvotes, i still feel anxious to talk/put myself out there. Am i reblogging right? Are my tags funny? Is my blog a big uninteresting mess?
This isnt a problem with the site itself, but with me obviously. But we are talking about my difficulty here, so it still needs to be said.
-the communities arent built in here like they were with reddit, so you sort of have to find it, and the regular posters who have the kind of quality content you want. This is pretty cool, but vastly different from reddit and im having a tough time getting used to it.
-there's definitely a few people i missed from the reddit communities i was in, and i wish i knew if they were here or not. (Talking about you, u/nepalman230)
All this being said, holy hell, its wild. Im putting my thoughts out here right now, and while it does feel....uncomfy, i think its more because im not used to it. It feels more like shouting out to the void. Maybe itll talk back. Who knows?
But i think this site is very neat, and i love love LOVE how much more inclusive tumblr is. Im straight and a cis male, but there were a lot of toxic communities that would just not let people be who they say they are, and im so glad that all my LGBTQ+ friends have a more inclusive place like this, and that so many have migrated over here. I wish i wouldve come here sooner.
Im also very grateful to all you veteran tumblr users putting in the effort to help us out. Youve put so much out here for us, to help us better understand how to navigate these new waters, and honestly? I'd have been really screwed without the help ive received, because tumblr is really kinda chaotic.
Its good to be here, and i'm hoping i can get over all my dysfunctions and really enjoy this space you've shared with us.

hhhh thinking about my silly headcanons about how hc!Phil met hc!Mumza. quite a long post so be warned ig haha
in my head, Mumza (whos the goddess of death in hc yesyes) has this little like, colosseum, in a dimension seperate from the mortal realm. i call it the In-Between. people show up in the colosseum when they die and Mumza greets them, she takes the mortal down the path of the colosseum, to a little porch at the end, where an old metal bench sits…the view from the porch is just nothingness for as far infinity reaches. they’ll sit down on the bench, and the mortal will tell the goddess the story of their life. when they finish, its like. the final closure. they are finally ready to move on from existence, theyll walk back inside the colosseum, and when Mumza goes back in, they’re gone. theyve moved on:) this is a natural process, it happens with everyone who dies, the mortals kinda just know what to do.
and the In-Between is a home of sorts to her, but she goes to the mortal realm a lot because the In-Between is quite lonely, she doesnt get guests very often. its adorned with trinkets and bits and bobs that she took from the mortal realm because she thought they were pretty hehe, namely the walls are covered in these huge black roses or flowers of some sort. and they stay alive because the place is independent of time and space, like its similar to + has connections with the void, but the void is a part of the mortal realm and the In-Between is not.
Anyway onto Phil. so he dies in s1, ends up in the colosseum, but he isnt ready to move on right. and Mumza thinks its odd because no guest of hers ever died and was like holy shit dude i wasnt meant to die noooooo…..he stays in the colosseum for a while and they get to know eachother, they become friends:) and one day Mumza realizes he can just give up his wings and respawn instead of staying in the In-Between forever and not moving on, so they do that. and he respawns in s2, with no memory of his life from s1 and no wings. he remembers the goddess of death though, and everything from the In-Between.
but Phil gets his wings back when he gets his first elytra. lore-wise its because because the end, being in the void, has the strongest connection to the In-Between, so Mumzas just kind of able to give him back his wings lol. and when he gets his wings, he can finally talk and hang out with her in the mortal realm:D hes not able to do that before he gets his wings because he isnt ‘complete’ yknow. fucks with the universe too much, not good. oh also sometime around here they become girlfriend boyfriend yesyes
ANYWAY. HIS ASS DIES TO THE BABY ZOMBIE AND HE ENDS UP BACK IN THE IN-BETWEEN. they do the same thing as last time, hang out for a little in the colosseum -> wing sacrifice -> crow man respawns in s3 now with no memory of s2 and s1. then he dies before he gets his wings i think,,,but he wasnt alive long enough for that life to ‘count’, per se, so he can respawn again without the wing sacrifice. but!! before he can do that!! hes like oh ive been meaning to ask you *gets down on one knee* Kristin, (literally the goddess of death, who is responsible for moving every soul into nonexistence, who is the strongest being in the world, messes with time and space on a daily basis, and was born with the universe) will you marry me (literally just some guy)
she says yes ofc and big happy,, and then phil goes n respawns in s4, gets his wings, and thats where hes been until now.
also idk where to put this so ill just put it here. my Phil design has these four hearts on his cloak thing, they were all sown on by Kristin when hes been in the In-Between.
Tumblr media
the first death, she put two, to signify his first life and his new, second one. just to remind him ig idk. and then when he died in s2, another was sown on, and in s3, another, so theres the four rn
anyway thats all if you read till here why did you do that but thank you

TT: When was it exactly that you read my walkthrough? GA: A While Ago [...] GA: Ive Been Experiencing Something Like GA: Impression Whiplash GA: Since That Time [...] GA: At First I Thought You Were Foolish And Incompetent TT: My apologies for whatever misstep I may have taken to dispel that impression. TT: It was an honest mistake, I swear.
If you're still wondering why Rose is my favorite character, observe how she flips on a dime from an ominous justification to flirtatious self-deprecation.
GA: That Was A Very Snarky Remark That Happened Just Now GA: Stratified By Your Signature Varieties Of Insincerity Which Cut Through The Literal Meaning Of The Statement Like Colorful Ribbons GA: And The Net Intent Is Something Maddening To Try To Know GA: Its Meaning I Think Exists At The Inscrutable Nexus Of Semantic Space Where Humor Chafes Against Soft Malice GA: A Place Perhaps The Human Mind Occupies More Comfortably I Dont Know GA: Xenopsychology Isnt My Strong Suit
But trolls like Terezi and Karkat are pretty good at this sort of thing, and Alternians do, in fact, have a concept of sarcasm. Post-Hivebent, it's starting to feel like Kanaya, specifically, struggles with certain social cues.
Tumblr media
Her mind games with Rose were sophisticated, and she put a lot of effort into puzzling them out. It occurs to me that if your first instinct is to logic your way into a friendship, maybe it's because the rules of friendship aren't intuitive to you.
Hell, it's even possible that it's Kanaya's logical approach to relationships that made her such a popular auspistice on Alternia. After all, logic in teenage relationships is in short supply.
GA: Why Dont You Put The Turtle Ruins Down GA: And Return To Your House GA: I Have Sketched Some New Outfits For You That I Think Are Nice GA: We Could Try To Make Them
Tumblr media
That didn't work out too well last time - but I like that you're willing to try again.
Rose is in over her head, but she's no Vriska.
TT: Maybe later. GA: What If There Isnt A Later TT: Well, we already know there won't be. [...] GA: There Not Being A Later Might Happen Sooner Than You Think [...] GA: For You Specifically
Ah, shit.

Be my partner forever?
Hange Zoe x GN reader
“Y/n! Glad to see you arrived.” Hange greeted cheerfully as they ushered you in their apartment. It smelled faintly of cinnamon and spruce. The place was nice and homey and looked unexpectedly clean. No offense to your lab partner but they didnt exactly seem like the most organized person.
“Of course id come, we’re partners in this project after all.” You smiled. You were happy when Hange invited you over for your project. They were a joy of a partner to have, and youve always admired them. Being invited to their house felt like a new step in your friendship, even though it was just for school reasons.
“Here, lets go to my room so we can discuss and research everything that we need. I already did a little bit of research myself beforehand though, so everything we need should be spread out on my floor.” You nodded in affirmation while still surveying your surroundings.
The place seemed very lived in, in a good way. Small knick-knacks littered the surfaces. you were willing to bet that almost each of them had a little story, and that Hange would love to ramble about all of them.
Youve harbored a crush for your eccentric classmate for a while now, and everytime they got excited about something its never failed to make you feel the same excitement they have about whatever it is that they were talking about.
“Here we are, sorry if its a little messy, ive been preoccupied with getting everything we needed.” They sheepishly smiled.
“Its fine, theres no need to apologize especially because it really isnt even all that messy.” You could swear they just let out a breath as you said that.
You made your way to their bed and promptly sat down. You opened your phone to check the details of your project and showed them to Hange. They were sat on the floor and hummed in acknowledgement.
“So, we need to get this vial…” It only took a second for you to find what you were looking for because all the materials were neatly labeled with easy to see stickers.
You could help but comment on their almost out of character neatness. “Wow, these are all very organized! I wish my stuff were this neat.”
“Haha, well i wanted my things to look nice since you were visiting. These chemicals usually arent labeled and i just figure things as i go–” They picked up a beaker and swirled it around as if for emphasis.
They then held an almost embarrased smile. “Heh, and well, that may play a part as to why my glasses are so heavy duty… they explode on me– a lot–”
You giggled softly. “Really? What kind of substances do you experiment with so often where they explode that much?”
They awkwardly chuckled as they averted your gaze. “If I told you youd probably leave.”
“Aw, you should know that some chemicals wont just magically make me leave, but i wont press in the issue. Id gladly stay ignorant if i could continue to be with you.” You chuckled as you sit down beside them and put your hand on their shoulder.
They heat up at the contact and at your words.
They cleared their throat. “Well then– we should uh, start soon yeah?”
“Oh yeah! Sorry, lets start” You looked down to the vial in your hands and tried to remember what to do next.
“I think we mix a few drops of that with this stuff” They held up a beaker so you could see the label.
“Oh yeah! Then the result should be the first common solution for everything else right?”
“Yep! Exactly!” They excitedly chirped.
Time flew by fast as the both of you worked together. Hange already knew all the steps beforehand, but they kept asking you questions and let you do things throughout because you were absolutely adorable when you enthusiastically answered sonething you knew about.
You didnt notice or mind all the questions, even though they were supposedly the smartest kid in class. You were just happy the both of you spending time together.
Hanges hands brushed with yours several times, and almost always it causes them to jolt a little. They cant help it, years of pining can have detrimental effects on a person. Everytime you get something wrong and sheepishly laugh, they find that all they want to do is kiss you and tell you its alright. They find themselves settling with just the latter, as difficult as it is. And every time you thank them for something, the try their hardest not to squeal and roll around the floor in happiness.
Before the both of you knew it, you were almost finished with the project. The sky was already dark yet neither of you wanted this moment to end.
“So, after we do this, we should be done! Working with you has been such a pleasure, I hope youre my lab partner again in the future!”
“I agree! Hell, you should be my lab partner forever, since we both love working with each other so much.” Their eyes widened as they realized the implications of what they said. They quickly scrambled to fix that, they didnt want you to have the wrong idea. Saying that was dumb, they should stop just saying everything that came to mind. Their mind was racing as they spoke.
“Well– i mean, uh, as long as school allows it because, obviously being lab partners forever is just quite impossible and i dont think wed even know each other for that long, i mean not that i dont want to but im just saying and uhh…” Their words stopped in their throat as they felt your hand holding theirs.
“No, I think forever sounds good” You smiled at them as you intertwined your hands together. A newfound confidence has found you. And you were going to make the most of it.
“We could work on something friday night, around… 5pm? Is that okay for you?”
“What– I mean yes! Yes of course im good at that time! Im good whenever!” Their words were failing them, but words really could not show their enthusiasm for your proposition.
“Great! I like the aspect of us working together, and i would like for it to be forever, i also would like to stay close with you forever.”
Hange was a blushing mess and couldnt believe their ears. Were you saying you like them?
They never would have expected this in a thousand years, they were fully expecting you just go on with your life and they would just watch quietly by the side. But your were saying you wanted to be together. With them.
Its almost like a dream come true to them. They could only stare at you wide-eyed as you smiled at them.
After staring at each other for what felt like hours, stood up to stretch.
“I think i have to go now, this has been a great day with you, im hoping we will have many more moments like this in the future.” You winked as put emphasis on the ‘many’, letting their imagination run wild.
“Uh– yeah… same here.”
And with that, you got your bag and left Hange a flustred, blushing mess. Oh how they could not wait for friday.

this isnt an ask, but ive been in a horrible spot with art lately which has never happened to me before. its been really hard to navigate my relationship to it after a lot of things happened to me that were very intertwined with art, and its been hard trying to rediscover my place with it and rekindle that very necessary fire.
coming across your drawings has reminded me of why i love art at all, the amazing act of making things. every piece you make is so incredibly ambitious and unique from each other and beautifully executed and passion driven and clearly made by someone who has amazing visions that want to be shared with the world. things like that piece with engineer's eye and the eye of a storm. i love art as a medium of communication more than anything, to share the way i see things. your work paints such a vivid picture of tf2 and your headcanons and tells so much story in just one page. it has so much character, and its helped push me a little bit more towards recovery in my passions. TLDR your work is really good, keep it up
this is so sweet and pleasurable to hear thank you 😭❤️ some time ago i've been struggling with art myself and had to stop drawing for a while few times to just give myself a rest because i didn't like anything that i draw, but at the moment i'm in a very simple and someway honest relationship with it, i just draw to try something new(honestly i can talk forever about my own relationship with art but i won't do that here), a while ago i worried about how i draw mercs and how their faces are different in every piece, but now that doesn't really bothers me because my point in art is to always try doing different things/add something new in stuff that i already know how to make because i'm in a constant research and brainstorming myself everyday, and also i'm very happy when people notice the symbolism that i sometimes add in my drawings because for me different interpretation of symbolism is the most beautiful thing the human brain can do(besides all that math stuff im not really into it xd)
thank you very much again, i hope your relationship with art will get better someday, love you!

Good to know you're feeling welcome! :D this is our little place in the internet, and we've decided to make it trans and gay as hell (n i gotta say, i did think "they-them gang! :o" when i found out you started using they/them too a while ago X3 ) n if you received this ask more than once, my tumblr bugged out before i could finish, sorry (。_。)
anyways, and sorry if this is long, but Woe- More Tumblr Things Be Upon Ye:
there used to not be an image limit before, causing a few- interesting posts… tho that changed a few years ago and recently, at first the limit being 10 images per post to now 30 images per post (you can also move the images around a bit)
if you plan on staying long term on tumblr and use desktop the most, i recommend getting the browser extensions Xkit &/or New Xkit cuz… yeah, tumblr is pretty nice, but it sometimes gets hard to use. it also adds extra useful things to the tumblr experience, which is nice to have. i'd say tumblr is like living in a cheap apartment in a calm area of the city. the place's great for what it is, just gotta be sure to leave rat traps near holes and dont worry about the Beast down the hall,
speaking of rats, we got an infestation. you may or may not have heard of it with the voter fraudage going with the polls a bit ago; since tumblr has little to No email verification, people outside tumblr buy bots to get in here and start posting malicious links. tho the bots are surprisingly easy to identify (often times blank blogs with very weird descriptions + stolen picture of lady or ai generated. you'll know it when you see it), and the protocol here is block and report spam so staff can deal with it
and btw if you want to keep a post for as long as your blog stands, i recommend rebloggin! thanks to how tumblr is build as, even if the original post or that blog is gone, the reblog will stay with you (+ tags on reblogs dont really make a post expand outside of your own blog, so many use this to create Very intricate personal tag systems to make easier finding posts, bc once a blog gets 1k+ post in it, it gets hard finding anything on it... <- knows this from experience u.u)
oh and last thing before i go again (and something i found out recently), another browser extension ive been loving: Stylus! with it you can customize a ton of sites to your liking And with a specific style found in the archive of this extension, you can change how the dashboard looks! even changing the background to any image you might want :D
so yeah, thats it, for now. i got more info if you want it, just lmk 👉👈
and you probably already noticed this, but there isnt really any word limit for posts or asks around these lands. tho on tags, the character limit on a single tag is 139. but you can put a Lot of tags, so there! be free mx quinn, no character limit holds you down no more ヽ(✿゚▽゚)ノ
Thank you so much for the knowledge!
Some Quinn Facts:
Mx., Ms. and Miss are all acceptable :)
I use “gay as hell” as a sort of tongue-in-cheek shorthand, but I also identify as trans as hell, queer as hell, non-binary as hell, lesbian as hell, and anxious/depressive as hell
I’m a vegetarian
My favorite food is pineapple pizza (controversial, I know)
For a few years in the early 2000s, I was a licensed auctioneer
The most times I’ve ever cried during a movie is 5 times during Happiest Season
I like the idea of books, but I’m bad at reading them
Overalls give me gender euphoria, and I don’t know why
I hope to release a solo album within the next year
I hope to direct a feature-length film by the time I’m 40
Coming out was the best thing I ever did

so im thinking up a few options for myself:
local art market. it happens every second saturday downtown which is a great frequency i think. however i dont know the type of people attending so i dont know if my merch will sell well or at all, and i dont know if they even allow the type of stuff i sell. so this is an iffy one
finding book authors who need illustrations done. i can def do a childrens book illustration if i needed to but id like to find something within my current art style if possible. i'll have to look around and try and find places where ppl are looking for my type of work
sell at conventions. this one's a little tricky bc 1) i have to invest in my stock which is at LEAST $300 for everything i need, 2) im not guaranteed to get on the list of vendors, and 3) these happen very infrequently and i dont know if i can rely on this for steady income
self publish comics. i had thought of this before and i dont think im Currently fit for doing it bc i tend to burn out soooo easily (thats likely a problem with my workflow honestly. its fixable surely) but im hopefully about to get adderall prescribed to me so maybe it'll work out after all lol. unfortunately this isnt an overnight project either though, and i do need to make money Right Now
get into making either live2d vtuber models or 3d models for both vrchat and/or vtubers. i know i know, i cant charge 8k for my first models, but i can at least make a few hundred on a single model. this would be a new skill to learn but its totally possible. theres tutorials and i also vaguely know how to use blender so i can at least try this. i do have fun doing this stuff anyway. im just a lil worried about the level of detail that goes into live2d models, im not super used to detailed designs just yet but its something ive been wanting to put more time and work into, so..
bite the bullet and start putting more work into social media presence and advertising my commissions. i complain about how rough commission work is all the time yes. but genuinely i do enjoy doing commissions for a living. the ONLY reason i complain is because of the inconsistent/low income, and the only reason for That is because i dont have a huge following to the point of where my slots sell out regularly. im no sakimichan. but if i just put in a little more time and work into building a social media presence im sure things will look up in that regard. i just have to fuckin..do it
so ya. these all have pros and cons and im weighing them desperately LOL. if im being honest? im leaning towards three in particular: the vtuber models, building a better social media presence to up my commission demand, and selling at conventions. i can definitely do all three of course, but i have to figure out how to balance everything while learning to do the new things and get good at them. i have no idea how to wrangle social media. ive tried so many things and i keep falling out of it so so easily, its very hard. but fuck dude if 15 year olds on youtube can have 100k subscribers then what the hell am i doing LOL yknow?

so as a little overview for my wips we got
power doesn't guarantee glory:sad gay teens discovering everything they knew about history was a lie (this ones got the most lore)
built on bones and flowers:fantasy steampunk story following a group of queer adults making the world a better place and healing together
the inhuman fascination with the human mind:two humans and two non humans try to answer the question of what it means to be human, i could go on for hours about this one oh god
corrupted royalty wip:something ive been considering abandoning, corrupted royal family and a group of criminals trying to take them down
killer twins:something relatively new i might give up on, a pair of twins who kill people together
six of hearts:havent been working on this one for a while but horror story about a group of six teens and a probably haunted lake
wow all these wips and not a single cishet character
OMG OKAY THEY ALL SOUND AMAZING
power doesn't guarantee glory sounds so interesting and is it like a "we been lied to and now we want to know the truth" or more like "we found out the truth accidentally now what are we going to do about it?" or a third option? either way its an awesome story
built on bones and flowers sounds like its so cool because i think there really arent a lot of books with queer adults healing yk? and if there are then its usually not something most people heard of so that story is really amazing to see and very important because i do feel like most queer books are about younger people? which is still so so important but its great to see adults too because those are just as important
the inhuman fascination with the human mind oh my god yes! this one!! what does it mean to be human and how blurry can it get to what is and isnt considered human? also what are we going by whats human? society or what the higher up people say it is? AHHHH YOU ARE A GENIUS!!! ITS INCREDIBLE I WANNA KNOW EVERYTHING
corrupted royalty wip sounds good and like it could be a fun story but i get if you've lost motivation for it or are no longer as interested in the story why you'd want to abandon it however just wanna say the bad guys actually acting as the good guys and the opposite for the good actually bad guys is one of my favourite tropes because why? why are things the way they are? why are they criminals and why have they chosen to try and do good
killer twins i just let out a laugh at(in a good way) because yeah sure why not have a pair of twins who kill people lol its a great idea and omg think of how they could do it!! do they pretend to be the same murderer? or maybe they work together to kill their victims? or are they competing? idkkk the possibilitys!!
six of hearts is just yes please do they turn on each other? or do they get closer? how does the horror work? is it like paranormal? or is it set irl but the haunting is someone else like a killer or something?
Ooo yayyyy QUEER CHARACTERS SUPREMACY i love it
so yessss your wips sound amazing i love them

Test
Jason Voorhees x reader
Short imagine
Testing out Jason's strength ;)
Warnings: Suggestive Themes
A/n: enjoy ~
You had been up since 5 am with Jason, wanting to get an early start on the day. It was a work day and you could already tell from the muggy air that it was going to be an exceptionally hot day.
Now it was around noon and the heat had only gotton worse, the both of you just about roasting as if you'd been thrown in an oven despite being covered by the shade of the woodsheds roof. Jason had a large axe in hand, swinging the metal blade down with a strong force to chop the wood logs you placed infront of him in half. But, as time went on, you realised that the small crackling you heard wasnt from the wooden logs your boyfriend had been chopping .. no. It was from the splitting wooden handle of the axe Jason had such a tight grip on.
"Baby, isnt that a new axe?" You paused the system of wood cutting you both had and your voice filled his ears beautifully making his heart flutter in his undead chest a little. The man nodded his head with a blank, confused stare before you pointed at the axe in his hands. He opened his fists up to see the axe had been one swing away from snapping in half completely, his head whipping up to look at you, amusement dancing around in his chocolate colored eyes. Laughter rang out into the air, the sound making Jason smile, his mask subtly raising as the apples of his cheeks went round.
"Alright, my love," You began, picking up a smaller log. "Put the axe down real quick and take this." You presented the wood to your partner. "Both hands like this." You explained, both hands on each end of the log. Your boyfriend did as asked, head tilted to the side. "I just want test to see if you can break it in half." You giggled, eyes glimmering in a playful stare. Jason shook his head and the veins from his arms popped furiously as he snapped the log in half effortlessly.
"Oh my god ! Does it hurt your hands?" You walked forward to stand infront of him, taking one of his large hands in your own smaller ones. The man shook his head and refused to pull his hand away until you let go first. He liked the touch. You let him go and handed him another, bigger, log this time and continued the cycle of wood splitting once again. He broke every piece in half like it was a simple twig till you were down to the last 2 logs.
The man had started sweating awhile ago but it wasnt till now did you really pay attention to how he looked. How he would clench his jaw everytime he split a new piece of wood, his jawline sharpening. Beads of sweat rolled down the side of his head, his arms dewy with sweat as well giving his skin a strangely attractive glow. Jason's muscles bulged through the white t-shirt you dressed him in, chest well defined by the tight fit around his body and you could see the outline of those well developed abs from the sweat buildup sketching the outline of the muscles. Finally, his hands. The veins traveled clearly up his arms and his calloused palms looked so rough but treated you with such gentle care. And now you were really starting to sweat...
"Yeah, that's the rest of it. Good job, honey." You praised him for his hardwork while handing him a towel to dry the sweat off with. Your recent train of though had you squirming in need for the man before you and you couldnt find any ounce of patience left in your body.
"Come on, let's go in side, huh? Iv got another idea of what you can do with your hands." You fluttered your eyelashes at him and offered a sly smile that he easily caught onto, quickly following behind you and watching as your hips swayed side to side seductively on the way back to the house.
The days activities werent over just yet ... you two still had some work to do...

the list that makes me and @dentist-brainsurgeon mortal enemies from now on i guess
extremely lengthy explanations under the cut:
i actually think the S+A tier speak for themselves?
S tier: the goats. im aware its full of third versions but they just happen to be extremely good and added some insane shit to already solid base games (ok diamond and pearl werent solid but the foundation was there). replayability is insane for these.
A tier: the Oh Fuck Yeah games. not in any particular order actually. hgss is absolutely the best remake of all, only held back by the few inherent flaws of the Johto region and by not emulating Crystal enough. as much as i like bw, reverting back to only one region of pokemon never sat right by me, but it's been a while since ive played it, and nowadays i make much more of an effort to try out all new mons. so i could change my mind on this.
i liked usum more than sun/moon, if only for the post game. replayability isnt as high because of the cutscenes every 3 steps, and rotom dex is annoying as shit. aside from that, insanely solid story & postgame imo. red/blue and gold/silver are brimming with weird places in their regions and are chock full of in game lore and legends, which i really like. the ruins of alph & pokemon tower are some of the best locations theyve ever made imo
B tier is the "good but couldve been better" tier. lets go is insane for shiny hunting, but it stops at that imo. the new rival is garbo. sun and moon are good, but the postgame + alola in general is just lacking enough in these games that they dont reach A tier for me. loveeed the island challenges tho. alola itself has just such a good vibe. you really feel like its about community rather than competition. legends arceus couldve been insanely good, but i have never felt as ripped out of a pokemon game as i did when i walked through that cave in the coronet region and started seeing stray pixels around my character. which wasnt a one time thing btw this happens to anyones game & every time as far as ive seen. its gonna sound dramatic but this combined with other graphics glitches made it so clear i was playing a game that it just took me out of the adventure entirely. this is where the graphics glitches really started, and they havent stopped since.
C tier: yellow is just kinda there? i dont care for starter pikachu. i want to, but it gets killed when breathed at, so. idk. the gimmick doesnt work that well for me. sword and shield introduced some insane mons that i love and i want to call it solid real bad, but the story was hot garbage even for pokemon standards, and while the wild area was a great idea, the execution was lacking & because what i assume is a time crunch, the towns were boring as shit as well. diamond & pearl are mediocre to bad, with a great story and mediocre to bad execution, and i shouldve put oras in the :( tier, but the postgame is worth it.
actually im gonna rant about oras. i was so hyped for it but, just, ugh. if youre gonna turn a 2d vague not-specified-what-a-character-is-doing-or-feeling player character to 3d, at least do it correctly. 2d sprites where someone can fill in the blanks not seen on screen but hinted at in text (ie expressions, actions like handing someone something) work infinitely better than 3d sprites who show it badly. also still suffers from the desaturation curse that the 3ds games suffer from. postgame was dope, though. shame the mega latis are ugly as shit.
:( tier: garbage, im so sorry. SV's only redeeming factor is the area zero story. there is nothing else in the game that held my attention. fuck the star team, fuck the big pokemon quests, fuck the towns where you cant talk to anyone or find anything interesting or walk into a house and where every shop looks the game. fuck stores not even having an interior anymore. fuck this larger but emptier and stripped down world full of graphical glitches. fuck the weak ass gyms, fuck geeta, and fuck terrastalizing most of all. i will die for Koraidon & the professor fight fucking ruled but that's all the game had to it for me. do any of yall remember the gym leaders besides like, iono and the snowboard man? no you dont, stop lying to me. gen I put more life into lavender town by making a npc reference some ghost hand on your shoulder than SV does for any town, and they only had black and white 32mb cartridges or whatever to work with. for fucking shame gamefreak. give your devs some time to make a halfway functioning game.
firered and leafgreen do nothing new. i will not discuss the sevii islands. what the fuck even was that. boring. same with brilliant diamond and shining pearl. theyre lower than diamond and pearl because why the fuck did they not decide to remake platinum. what the hell was their damage. seriously platinum was RIGHT there. i caught a full odds shiny ghastly in that game and i still dont care about it.
X&Y suffers from. everything.

Stagefright
A soft Dew and Phantom drabble cos i love they. Ive not written anything in years so uh, excuse it if its awful lmao.
Crossposted on Ao3
Word count: 414
----------------‐------------------------‐-
“Places, everyone!” The commotion is now bordering on unorganized
chaos. The first ritual of the tour is about to get underway and with two new ghouls, everything needed to be perfect... or as perfect as it could be.
Not that the new ghouls weren't prepared, they had been practicing with the band for months now, ever since Sunshine moved abbeys and Aether took up a fully administrative based role. But still, there was an air of nervous energy around the band ghouls.
Now, this would be all well and good, if they could find their rhythm guitarist. Phantom had been MIA for a little while now, and for some satan damned reason Dew had been sent to find him. Dew understood Phantom’s apprehension, the fans adored Aether. And while the ghouls loved their fans, they could be a…touch overbearing. The young quintessence ghoul had been noticeably worried about how they’d receive him for a while now.
Pacing through the backstage areas, Dew knew there were only a few places that his bandmate could be seeking refuge in; there was a couple of set rooms for the ghouls to de-glamour, it was most likely that's where Phantom was.
‘Bingo’ Dew rounded the corner into a small, dark room. He was greeted by
a fine mist, along with the missing ghoul cooped up in the furthest corner.
Dew approached carefully, knowing from previous experience that startling an emotional quintessence ghoul isnt going to achieve anything. He crouches down next to Phantom, and speaks uncharacteristically softly to him.
“Hey, they need you up there now, shits about to start.”
However, he gets little to no response, just a flick of the nervous ghoul’s tail to signify that Dew had been heard.
“Look, they won't hate you. Whatever you've gotten into that thick fuckin skull of yours isn't true. They'll adjust, just the same as the rest of the pack did, yeah? Once we’re on stage, just be YOU. Don't waste your energy pretending to be Aether, they'll love you I'm sure of it. Now come on, we have a show to put on.” Dew will be the first to admit that he isn't great at the whole ‘pep talk’ thing, that's more of a Mountain, or Cirrus job, but he's trying, ok?
Dew stands, Phantom’s violet eyes following his movements, and holds a hand out to the other ghoul.
“You coming, or what?”
Phantom sighs and stands on shaky legs, takes Dew’s hand.
“Y-yeah.. Let's do this”

Kamisato Ayato x calm!fem!reader
Genre : fluff
Warning : cussing, and some comments from the dear author
Authors note : jokes on you, I've saved up for gorou and this man since Inazuma was first out just to get a notification that me storage ran out. SO YES I DONT PLAY GENSHIN NOW AND I HAVE A MORE THAN 5000 PRIMO damnnnn..... I think imma kms
________________
youre strolling down in inazuma's streets with your lover, Kamisato Ayato.
As people stares at the two of you, they gasp at the beauty from both lovers, a handsome getleman, and a adorable young lady. (noice)
But after a while, your date has been interupted, but it was always like this so it was fine. As the two noblemen drags ayato away to talk of business, you played with the cats beside the benchs.
usually it only took 10 minutes for ayato to come back to you, but it was already 15 minutes so you got bored and started to pick yourself up to walk around.
as you were strolling. of course not to far so Ayato doesnt get worried, you found a new bubble tea store. And as you see how theyre conversation isnt gonna stop soon, you bought one for yourself as you continue your stroll.
But not like what you expected, Ayato went back, and caught up to you 5 minutes after you started your stroll.
"my apologies darling, I took quite the time didnt I? were you bored" he says with his usual gentle voice. "kinda bored, but it was fine. what did you talked about? is there something new in the commision?"
The two of you then continued your stroll while he talked about the disscussion he just had.
"sweetheart, ive been rambling about all of this noble nonsense on our date, isnt that boring for you?why dont you talked about how youre doing since we didnt really get to meet a lot this week." he says with a a little frustration in his voice. But rather than what he said, you feel like "Just being with you is already very great for me"
Ayato felt like his heart was just struck by an arrow 'j-just what did i do to deserve this adorable creature..' he says in his mind as you continue talking "hearing you talk, and feeling you next to me is very enjoyable for me. So sometimes i just go quite because i want to enjoy hearing your voice, after all, your correct about us s=being busy most of the time" you say with a little pout.
"t-that is very pleasing to hear my love, but are you sure just being with me is enough? dont you want to get some snacks?" 'dear archons how am i gonna go on'
"sure, anything you like. Just be by my side, and dont leave me alone"
and that was the last string that was keeping him from falling in love with you and simping for you harder than before. He just want to keep you just for him.
He then pulls on your waist, went behind you,, wraps his arms around your waist, and rest his nuzzles his face to your cheek.
"your so adorable my love, may I have your permission to lock you up in my mansion to keep you for myself?" he says with a teasing voice
"....its better that you dont do that..."
"ahahaah, of course, now can you share one of my favorite things in the world that your holding right now?"
you then looked at the remaining bubble tea, just 2 bubbles and 1/7 brown sugar milk tea of the glass in your hand then looked at ayatos face beside yours....
"nope" then you took the glass to the hand opposite from ayato and put it up away from him. He tries to reach for it, and when he succeeded, you pulled it to you and slurped the ttwo bubbles with some water leaving the glass to remain with the now only brown sugar milk tea without the bubbles.
".....fine" Ayato spun you arounf to face him the closes the gap between the both of your lips gently and pulled your body closer to his. He then deepens the kiss and steals the one of the boba bubble from your mouth.
"quite good. sweet, but not as sweet as you. now shall we go home?"
"u-uhm" you nod
great thing you were not in a crowded place.
