Seven(ish) Sentence Sunday 🍩

Tagged by @diazsdimples & @wikiangela

Guess who got the first chapter of Rival Firefighters 🚒 beta’d today and is working on a summary and tags so they can post it next week? 😃😃😃. I am so so sooooo excited to start posting! (still have that last chapter to finish but it’s almost done and I really don’t wanna wait anymore to start sharing this story).

Today’s snippet isn’t from Rivals though, but from LA Lonely 🏙️, the other wip taking over my brain atm.

Prev snippet here.

Buck arrives at dispatch for lunch with Maddie ten minutes early. It’s his day off and he’s finished all his errands with time to spare so instead of waiting the last ten minutes in the car, he decides to head up to the break room. He may also be secretly hoping that by coming in a bit earlier, there may still be a danish left in the pastry box dispatch gets delivered every morning.

He spies the pastry box and makes a beeline for it, letting out a small cheer of victory when he opens the lid and spies a couple of donuts and a blueberry danish. He grabs the danish and takes a bite, groaning and wiggling his shoulders in a happy little shimmy as the buttery pastry floods his tastebuds.

Turning around to find a seat and wait for Maddie, Buck immediately freezes because sitting down at one of the tables and looking right at him is Eddie. Hot hook up Eddie. Chris’s dad Eddie. Eddie from the coffee shop. That Eddie. His eyes are shining bright with amusement and he’s biting his bottom lip trying to suppress a smile.

If the ground could open up and swallow him whole, that would be great.

Buck chews the remaining bite of danish thoroughly before swallowing, not wanting to have another choking on bread situation. One of those is enough for one lifetime thank you very much.

“Uh, any chance you can pretend you didn’t see that?”

“Nope, not a chance.” Eddie says, an amused grin finally breaking free and okay it’s really unfair how one smile from him has Buck’s heart fluttering.

ROTTMNT Theory: Donatello's Hidden Role

After rewatching ROTTMNT (shorts and movie included), I realized something about Donnie's character that I've hardly seen anyone mention, and I'm going to talk about it in depth here.

I'll assume you've already watched the series and dive right in, but spoiler warning under the cut in case you care about that.

Let me start with something seemingly off topic. Raph is the oldest of the four brothers, which landed him the responsibility of keeping his younger siblings safe when their father was unavailable. (Not trying to bash Splinter. He's gradually grown to be a better parent later on, but you can't deny he was fairly neglectful in the beginning of the series)

The constant pressure Raph went through was brought up in the episode "Anatawa Hitorijanai", and then the movie showed he still struggles with it now.

He's constantly shouldering the burden of being their family's sole protector, but is this the truth? What if I told you there are actually two protectors in the family? And that the other one was Donnie all along?

When you look closely, Donnie is surprisingly protective of his loved ones. I did a tally of how often each brother exhibits what could be protective behavior, and Donnie was in second place (29) after Raph (35). Some of these choices are debatable, but here's a bunch of examples as pictures.

Would you believe me if I told you I still have a couple smaller examples I had to leave out due to the picture limit? And that's not even including the few moments where Donnie and Raph ever-so-subtly parallel each other.

All things considered, Donnie and Raph aren't so different. Raph is the primary protector who faces the threats head-on with his physical strength, while Donnie is the secondary protector who tends to use more distant methods with his tech and wit. However, when push comes to shove, Donnie will also step up to take direct action when he deems it necessary.

They may be the brains and the brawn, but they both use their respective skills to defend and support their family.

#analysis #rise donnie #rottmnt #Donatello #Raphael #Sorry in advanced if the pictures have trouble loading #But seriously #I would love to see more of Donnie and Raph's dynamic if we get season 3! #Interestingly enough Donnie seems to be the least outwardly protective of Leo #Maybe the sibling rivalry makes him too prideful to show it as much #even though we know his protective instincts definitely extend to Leo as well #Alternatively there are a couple clues pointing toward Donnie seeing Leo as intelligent #so maybe he has a little faith in that? #The disaster twins are complex to say the least #I actually have quite a few extra examples I could share #but some of them are more debatable than others #I changed the tag from 'theory' to 'analysis' but I'm keeping the title the same

That Taylor-Hero interaction restored my health back to full GOOD EPISODE

#oh how I missed this silly podcast #dndads #dndads s2 ep 51 #I don't get the title of this one though 🤔 #dndads spoilers #dungeons and daddies #hero oak swallows garcia #taylor swift dndads #I don't have much to say though there was just a lot of really good bits #I will say if there's one thing when I heard the knock on the wall I was *kinda* really hoping it would be Grant #Also when they called Erin I was like ''LARK IS THERE TOO GUUYS USE HIM AAAAA'' #🥰 But at least we got Hero

So for those who, like myself, no longer have x/twitter and perhaps weren't aware, Seven Seas has come under fire again due to a recent licensing announcement.

On February 21st, Seven Seas announced that they had secured the rights to license the Kinnporsche novels into the English language:

This announcement was met with both positive and negative reaction; the negative focusing mainly on two points. The first being that Daemi, the authors for the original Kinnporsche novel, were already under fire for their behaviours and treatment towards an actor in the KP drama, among other questionable behaviours.

But the other main negative reaction stemmed not from the novel or authors that were licensed, but towards Seven Seas themselves.

Kinnporsche is the first Thai BL novel of this kind to be licensed under the Seven Seas name. Yet Seven Seas has caused upset because, despite coming from a different country entirely, they have still decided to brand Kinnporsche as a danmei title.

Many fans took to social media explaining why this was an incorrect thing to do, yet rather than listening to them as well as both the Chinese and Thai communities, they instead decided to edit their websites definition on what danmei means:

For those that perhaps aren't already aware, danmei as a genre specifically applies to Chinese works. It does not apply to any other outside country - and that includes Thai.

It isn't just China that has a unique name for their male/male genre novels. In Japan, similar titles can be called yaoi. Thai takes inspiration from the Japanese name for this genre, often referring to their works as Y.

"Although the term boys-love, or its abbreviation “BL”, is more prevalently used internationally to denote the genre, it is more commonly referred to as waai (วาย) or “Y” in Thai. This term is derived from the first letter of the Romanized spelling of the Japanese expression for the genre yaoi. The term waai functions as an adjective and can be added, according to Thai grammar, after any media formats, such as siirii waai (“Y” series), niyaai waai (“Y” novels), kaatuun waai (“Y” comics). So, the next time you encounter “Y” alongside any Thai series, you will now be able to recognize it as belonging to the BL genre." (source)

While boys' love is the overarching umbrella for all these genres, it is both important and respectful to refer to the genre name of the given country of origin for a novel. Seven Seas has chosen not to do this, and instead has decided to band everything together under the danmei umbrella. This is both wrong and misleading.

If Seven Seas wants to publish such works under a more open branch, they'd be better rebranding under the boys' love term. But they won't, due to the success they've already achieved from their past releases of Chinese danmei. It isn't fair to other Asian, non-Chinese releases to not be referred to by their own title of the genre. Many of these potential new releases we're seeing are the first to come from certain countries - do they not deserve the same respect upon release as others?

I've been in fandom a long time - long enough to see the Japanese yaoi genre grow from being something rarely known in the west to something that's grown hugely popular. I've been here from the beginning of these danmei releases in the past recent years. While seeing how reintroducing stories to new audiences can come with its own difficulties and growing pains, we've come far along enough in the years that there is little excuse for Seven Seas not to show more care and respect when it comes to the way they handle these things; especially given how they've already received backlash in the past with their danmei releases when it's come to concerns over translation, treatment of translators and their work, the decline in quality vs. the rise in time between volume releases, as well as arguments that they don't always do the required research into licensing a title beforehand.

Don't get me wrong, I love that Seven Seas is bringing some of our favorite titles over to us. I just wish that the people behind them cared a little more, especially when it comes to these sorts of things which could very easily be rectified/researched into in the first place.

#seven seas entertainment #seven seas #seven seas critical #kinnporsche #i know i'm arriving a week late with the starbucks on this #but i've been sitting on my feelings on this since i read about kinnporsche being licensed via reddit #and i wanted to say something instead of sighing in frustration whenever i see something else about this situation #i'm not even that big into thai boys love and it didn't even take me a moment to do the basic research into the genre #(i am planning to watch kinnporsche eventually though. i'm just slow on starting it lmao) #for a company that's planning to license more titles under it seven seas could have at least done that.

my aesthetics :

the second quarter quell generation, pt one (aka the generation with all the principal characters’ parents, and then also haymitch)

#thg #hunger games #haymitch abernathy #Katniss everdeen #Peeta mellark #maysilee donner #thgedit #okay so in order this goes #Haymitch Haymitch’s girl katniss’s parents Peeta’s parents and then the donner twins #i will make a part 2 with the characters if I can think of more than gales parents #if I can’t hazelle and her husband will be retroactively added into this one #myaesthetics #myedit #ya lit aesthetic #ya lit edit #and yeah this may be shameless promo one day for my lil 2nd quarter quell ficcy #which is why the little title for Mr E is confusing !!! because a lot of this is about my made up lore!!! his mom is Maude ivory but she #disappeared when he was a child #which is why Katniss knows nothing about her own gramma!!! #ok anyways if I ever write it all the little titles will make sense but for now they’re confusing because I made this specially for me for #my made up headcanons that make no sense to anyone else lololololol #oh oh oh also I put black eyes in both Katniss’ mom and Peeta’s mom’s edits for a reason!!! #ok so like I always interpreted it that abuse in the merchant class was more common #like what Peeta obviously went through at home was actually normalized in his circle #and it’s also implied Katniss’ mom was shunned by her parents for marrying Katniss’ dad so I figure they couldn’t have been good parents #and then Peeta’s mom Ruby also has blood on her own hands because we know she one day is abusive to her own kids so it’s like #she experienced abuse and then continues the terrible circle #but obviously Katniss’ mom lavender does not! she has other issues though but the young version is so fun to play with #also young Haymitch and his girl here would be the most judgey pretty couple #I have lots of headcanons for them some of which I’ve entwined already into at least one of my fics

they werent lying that knuckles series barely has knuckles in it

#i pirated that shit Btw just so we're clear. also gonna talk about it a little bit in the tags #nothing too spoilery but also might not wanna read if you want to go in knowing absolutely nothing? idk #anyway he WAS a main character still he was present for a decent amount of the first couple episodes #but the amount of screentime he gets just starts dropping after that . hes barely there at all in the second half ??? #and it feels like theres a lot of scenes mostly focusing on wade and his problems and not near as many for knuckles and his whole deal #overall it feels more like a wade show with knuckles in it than a knuckles show with wade in it. which sucks #and human characters having plot relevance isnt the problem here i dont mind human characters at all i think they can be really fun #its the fact that the human characters are taking over the story and spotlight when the show is called knuckles #and all the marketing makes it look like knuckles is the main focus #and i also would have preferred if they just went with a differnet character to be knuckles' human friend #because i dont particulraly care about wade. and the knuckles (and sonic and tails) i know would not be friends with cops </3 #well at least the story wasnt knuckles training wade to be a better cop like a lot of people were expecting but thats like.the bare minimum #also aside from the issues relating to knuckles' screentime (or lack of screentime) i thought the ending was unsatisfying #regardless of all that though there WERE some parts i enjoyed or found kind of funny or whatever. because knuckles so cutesy as always #knuckles being a cute little guy is the most important part of the show actually #and i liked the parts with sonic tails and maddie even if they were only there for like 5 minutes #(i really wish those three had gotten more screentime. i feel like they could have easily worked in at least one more scene with them) #and its a minor thing but the opening sequence is cute. was honestly expecting just a title card or something #overall the show is just . kind of okay i guess. not the worst thing ive ever seen but still disappointing ? idk how to explain.. #my expectations also werent very high in the first place #so maybe im being a bit more generous than i would have been otherwise. idk #and i definitely would not recommend this to anyone who already dislikes the sonic movies . youll probably hate this more #like people who thought the human characters got too much screentime in the second movie would lose their minds if they saw this

ok u know that fake 80s horror movie meme that people did on tiktok well aside from the blatant goncharov plagiarism i feel like the idea isnt inherently bad but trying to convince people the movie is real while giving it an obscure and therefore easily googleable name like zapotha is unwise. like goncharov was always openly fake but the video said they want to convince people zepotha is real. too easy to fact check imo.

#if you want to convince ppl this is a real movie you gotta name it like. using the few things that 80s horror titles are allowed to use.. #its gotta be some kind of combination of #'night of the (xyz)'. the name of a broad category of monster (demon werewolf etc). smth like freak/creep. massacre. #and/or some event that high schoolers would participate in. prom. graduation. camp. slumber party. etc. bonus pts if its a franchise. #like omg have you seen my favorite underrated 80s horror? Vampire Camp III: Night of the Were-Creeps? from 1987? #omg its soooo good you have to check it out. linnea quigley's best role. don't @ me you know im right. #avpost #you gotta give it a really tropey name so people cant like look it up and find nothing. #at the very least if you name it 'night of the ' people will find a ton of other horror movies and assume it's blocking out the right movie #anyway you dont have to watch the rest of the vampire camp series to understand the 3rd movie bc they explain the lore #in a campfire scene at the beginning. so youll be caught up. plus the second one was really weird and hasnt aged well #the first one is kind of a low budget 1981 gem but the bad dialogue and acting is really hard to get past. pretty good gore effects though. #check it out if you like that sort of thing but the series takes off at the 3rd movie. when they make it more horror comedy. #i think its getting a remake soon. directed by a woman!

[tethered-heartstrings]

why is posting a fic harder than writing it

#this fic is done and beta'd and ready to post and i'm- #i dont even have a title i am in love with #nothing feels quite right #and i don't know if i should post all 23k at once or chapters? #like i could do it in three chapters but idk which is better #like 7.6k; 6.8k; and 8.6k breakdown #for once i think i actually have a summary but #at least i have a fucking mood board lol #and it doesnt even touch on the ''being perceived and people not liking it'' aspect lmao #need a magic 8 ball that can give me all the answers #maybe i will sleep on it and see if any omnipotent being casts answers into my dreams and shows me the path #i didn't put in this much work to *not* post it lmao #no this isnt priest fic. that has it's own problems though #the speaking clown

[bonefall]

Same anon- wasnt trying to imply that with blossom either! Just wanted to say that it could've been read that way and could be triggering to some, and the fact that no one speaks up felt off, even if its against the code. I've never read the more recent books either, so by the way the posts were spaced it felt like the series goes Df battle > Tempest > Ashfur in the span of a few moons, meaning blossom went from one horrible event to another and was still feeling isolated and shameful. Sorry if anything came off as confrontational or mean!

As for the 'why dont they leave?' thing, I think we all default to how Ravenpaw actually DOES leave and we just apply the same logic. As humans we naturally draw connections, and if we see a situation where a whole clan turns on one cat, we ask why didn't they just do what Ravenpaw (or Dovewing iirc) did and decide they can't deal with this and it's better to move on. It's a pattern that we itch to see fulfilled: Tigerclaw turns everyone on Ravenpaw so he leaves, Dovewing gets her whole clan telling her to do better so she leaves, Blossomfall gets named as a traitor and repeatedly gets dishonor titles to remind her of all her faults- why do cat not leave???

But yeah, if Blossom got to heal, i retract my statement entirely. I just was going off the logic that she felt isolated/cut off and that being told she's better off invisible would just shove her further into that belief. I do wanna ask, do you know what the thing Blossom spoke up about that got her slapped with the title?

Ah, I see! Let me clear up the order of events so far;

ThunderClan's Tempest, shortly after the Great Battle, dealing with the Clan moving on. Contains some parts of the canonical Dovewing's Silence but mostly Bramblestar's Storm

AVOS, with Blossomfall joining the Kin and being rescued sometime towards the end. Still working out some kind of incident where her kits are either stolen, or have to be retrieved-- the sire is not known

Squirrelflight’s Horror, a book about how Bramblestar turns a tense political situation into an excuse to leverage his power to abuse his deputy after feeling slighted.

TBC, which is at least a year after AVOS, with all of Blossomfall's children now being young warriors and her life coming back into order

So Blossomfall is having a pretty long journey here! Her life has been rocky and she can be a really nasty person, but she was brought back into ThunderClan because she is still loved. There are people who really want to see her get better.

And as for when she gets Clearface'd, I'm torn on it either being the first sign and SUPER shocking because it was just the normal amount of Blossom-sass, OR it coming right after the death of Bristlefrost and she argued that

"Bristlefrost was a codebreaker but who cares! She was a warrior of ThunderClan! There's no way that StarClan--"

And then interrupted and quashed with the title.

So, first option, to demonstrate Bramblefake's new level of malice at the earliest possible point and use Bristlefrost's death as the "turning point" of the arc where cruelty becomes violence,

Or, as a direct response to Bristlefrost's death, and the moment where there begins to be suspicion, because Bramblestar is NOT this good at naming.

#I like controversial girl characters a lot btw #With Dovewing also she is also a special case #She didn't have a ShadowClan to run to and didn't know if Tigerheart would even take her kits since they're Bumblestripe's #And she wanted to get away from her family #She she bolted in a random direction in panic LMAO go girl #Dovewing was willing to ACCEPT solitude not knowing the Guardians were thataways #She would have lived in the woods. At least until she had time to make a decision #But that's a really difficult choice to make logically #And comes from her resentment of Everyone at that moment #ShadowClan was disbanded at that time #And Raven? He's got it made thanks to Barley and the presence of a barn #Though the idea of Blossomfall straightup kicking Smoky out of his barn is very funny #'HEY THIS IS MY BARN-' #*Blossomfall throws him out a window* #That's pretty funny maybe she'll do that for the rebels later #'Hey guys idea. Instead of having rebel camp in the woods we go kick that loser out of his house' #Very Bloss thing to do tbh #'Wow that guy looks kickable. Hey Ivy how fast do you think I can make him cry' #I think in talking about how much she is hurting under it all I can end up obfuscating that she is Mean as a primary trait lmao #She's the meanest person in TC and passes the title back and forth with Berrynose like an Employee of the Month plaque #Mean people can be hurting though

nate please please please please I am shaking you by the shoulders right now no one needs to do this please you can make a actual thought provoking interesting thumbnail for the song you don't need to appeal to clickbait algorithms anymore you're still letting yourself be bound to it people loved your early original songs for what they were without this. please stop doing this please stop changing thumbnails I am going to cry

#literally has done this to multiple thumbnails that were even perfectly okay before #I mean the original for this one wasn't all that good either but this is far worse #massive disappointment when I saw with you change it's so. boring and predictable I have seen it plenty of times before #literal opposite of what he was going for #not to mention SCRAP HEAP DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE SONG TITLE ANYWHERE EXCEPT THE VIDEO ITSELF #nothing left to want became boring too though at least STILL INCLUDED THE TITLE IN IT #does he realize that. THIS is probably just damaging his content further? #I mean he can do whatever he wants and if he's happy with it then fine by me #but do you SEE the traction and views sandcastle kingdoms and paid in exposure got? besides his fnaf songs and parodies #he's ALSO known for phantom! an original song! and I hate that his rebranding of it as a hazbin hotel song actually worked! #because it's not going to continue to! #like dude we all know a lesson in grief has nothing to do with sonic. none of the lyrics tie into anything sonic related whatsoever #ik he's trying to get his stuff out there via the things he was once known for but maybe..... it's time to FULLY let go of that? #bc it's embarrassing to watch and it doesn't feel all that passionate. though he's dropped fandom music he's still very much bound to it #and ADMITS it #please you can make original and thought provoking art! without ties to fandom! idk what you did with your first two original albums #but it wasn't this and you should do it again #I swear nate people love your music for what it is and even though to let go was not my favorite #you still have potential far past what the algorithm is doing to you. none of this is genuine and it's very much present #in how you promote your music. I feel it when I see these thumbnails. I feel it when I watch these videos. it PUTS ME OFF so much #sorry for the rant in the tags and sorry if this is a hot take I hope y'all can see where I'm coming from 👍 #natewantstobattle #nwtb #nathan sharp #nate posting #natewantstobtl

[manchasama]

I am...baffled and disappointed.

I was watching a fansub of the first few Onepiece episodes, and was completely thrown off by them translating nakama as "friend". Like, no? That is not right. Just leave it as nakama please it's so much less offputting than Arlong going "Nami is my friend". That absolutely does not work.

Then on a whim I decided to google what fansubbers would still be using nakama, only to find at some point the fandom became absolutely poisonous about not only the term nakama, but leaving japanese in at all.

"It's a deliberate troll of old fansubbers!" "They just didnt' know how to translate it so they left it in." "It means friend/comrade/crew and they should just have used the REAL word!" "They thought leaving Japanese in made them edgy and cool"

Like...y'all realize YOU sound like the assholes here? Then of course there's the people who are like "You should never leave the japanese in the translation!" purists who I just don't understand. Misconception of words aside, because that is their OTHER argument, if you want it purely english, watch the dub maybe.

There ARE untranslatable concepts, and what I remember is fansubbers used to put their heart and soul into trying to convey the concept instead of literal translations. And sometimes, leaving the original term with a translation of subtleties works better. If you are mad at the fandom for assigning it further meaning beyond that (which I never really...picked up on? Nakama has different meaning for everyone, it's not a one-stop "closer than family" term?? Literally never heard anyone say that except for the people complaining that people say that), then I don't think you like fandom at all.

#personal opinions ahead #whine whine whine #it's just another arm of purity culture #which just makes me wish for sanity in this stupid-ass world #does it lead to hilarious things? #of course #but how joyful was 'keikaku means plan' for people? #how much fun did people have? #was anyone actually butthurt over it? not that i saw #i am just so tired #dubs are like nails on chalkboard for me personally #if you like them absolutely power to you but i do not #and translations like this give me the same 'unable to get into it' thrown off feeling #these are not english shows and they should not feel like it #if the subber had used different words for different situations i could have forgiven it tbh even though i prefer nakama #but arlong??? does not do friends #not like that at least #these bad guys are not yelling about their 'friends' when they are talking/belittling their crews #same thing about things like 'nii-san' #yes it literally means older brother but it's used in many other situations #and just putting the name in instead doesn't convey that #and saying 'bro' works in some situations but not most #just leave it in as a title like god damn #learn a little bit about a language you don't know why don't you #ugh rant over i guess

okay I did it! I fucking did it! I have finally seen EVERY PUPPET MASTER MOVIE ever made and also no one should ever do that actually but I'm not on this hell site to make good decisions okay

#puppet master #i have the weirdest god damn relationship with these movies they have just kinda haunted me since scifi channel in the 90s #so this was An Adventure #still kind of annoyed they wasted 'puppet master: the littlest reich' on a movie NOT about wrecking nazis again #because that is like objectively the funniest b-movie title i've ever heard #oh well at least that timeline will never be revisited ever #and i actually enjoyed blade: the iron cross despite the trainwreck budget #because a) it wasn't the littlest reich and b) it knew exactly the kind of stupid it wanted to be and was completely unapologetic about it #which is kinda my feels on the PM axis movies as a whole except for the bit part human japanese villains #who are excessively uncomfortable to watch and make zero sense for so many reasons #everyone talks about the kamikaze puppet being bad and yes he is but he was also made in a nazi lab and exists for like 5 minutes #so at least his badness like blends in with the rest of the dumb movie #those human chars tho wtf was anyone thinking #oh well though #go to sleep ed

Wrote down a little bullshitted up lineage of primes thing as a treat, and I threw in a few of primes for a gap in between Prime Nova and Nova Prime, the latter is in my list as "Nova Prime 2: electric boogaloo" which is hilarious.

The oc primes:

Prime Proxima, Prime Plerion, Caerulus Prime, Cepheidis Prime, Asterism Prime, Luminus Prime, and Theta prime

#i am aware Luminus Prime is luminous minus the O. that was on purpose because i wanted another –minus prime #I've thought so much about calling a character theta btw #most of these guys and gals in my mind had relatively short reigns as primes and the majority did not have the matrix #(if any) #yes 5/7 use she/her pronouns bc i ran with the first pronouns that popped into my mind with their names #it's an interesting idea that for a while the title of prime came before the first half of the name rather than after #on my list you can also tell when either the primes started to become shittier people or at least when history recording the shitty stuff #i am aware that Caerulus means blue. he is the blue prime. #some of them are named for astronomy terminology!) #Proxima is named for Proxima Centauri #Cepheidis is named for Cepheid Variables / Cepheids which are a type of star #an Asterism is a star formation smaller than a constellation #aaand a Plerion is another name for pulsar wind nebulas! #... the name Imperator is calling to me again though. #again a word i like the sound of and i just think it's bullshit it's wasted on an invalid taxon #maccadam #transformers #ocs #basically all ocs for the sake of ocs #nova prime

#aly.writing #i literally hate it here #the next 2 im working on i want to get ages solidly figured out and also itll just be helpful to give myself a timeline in general even- #-for stuff like boy best friends which'll be happening in the future #and the [redacted] fic which will be in the future also. and the other WIP which will be moreso in the past but ages are important #TECHNICALLY i shouldve done this for desiderium too to more accurately write characters like barbara and kaeya. because i wrote them at the #-age i consider them to be in my head frozen eternally instead of how old they'd be by the end of the traveler's journey which was- #-definitely a MISTAKE but hopefully/probably not a huge one? idk i definitely couldve done better but. i will going forward at least #kinda glad i decided to style the fic the way im styling it though #a) im gonna be forced to learn how to do Very Slightly Fancier things in ao3 to formet #b) i DO get to figure out ages and such just based on my own perception of the characters and itll be a good base timeline for what i write #actually fuck redacted im just gonna start tagging these as im talking about them so i dont have to go back and sort through later #30 seconds posting #aly grief fic #<- i can replace that tag w/ something better once i have a title for it rn i mostly just have the basics
