#bad friendships

[automnelog]

people who do not know how to process their own emotions and the emotions of others, will interpret you expressing your emotions as “drama”

You know what?

No, I'm not done talking about self-sent anon hate and fake harassment campaigns.

Because I genuinely think a lot of the people who practice that kind of bad behavior are seeking reassurance from their friends and loved ones. It's nice when someone is mean to you and your friends rush in to speak up for you and build you up. That's one of those "I truly know who's my friend" moments.

It happens a lot in fiction, but in real life a lot of the things that "attack" you are not things your friends can help stand up against: your boss, your parents, other assorted authority figures that abuse their power to make you feel small. There's not much to rally against in that case, and at best you can vent or at worst you keep it in.

My point is, you don't need to lie to get reassurances from your friends. If you're feeling lonely or just in need of a pick me up, tell your friends. It's pretty normal to seek reassurance sometimes. But when you fabricate this kind of thing, you're adding an unnecessary layer of harm to the whole thing. Because that's the thing: it harms your friends, to see you be badmouthed. It harms your friends to see upsetting, cruel messages about you. Sure, the messages are fake, so you might think no one's really getting hurt, but that misses the fundamental point of WHY your friends rush in to defend you. They come in force because they're upset! It's upsetting when a friend is getting harassing messages! They're your friend and you love them and someone is being needlessly cruel to them. That hurts!

There's nothing wrong with having emotional needs, even emotional needs that are outside what most people have. There's nothing wrong with needing reassurances or accommodations for specially rabid brain weasels. The brain weasels are the worst, but you're not a bad person for having them. And, like, your friends will accommodate if you explain and there's nothing wrong with asking for accommodations.

Your needs are not the problem, it's the fucking maladaptive, manipulative, callous and cruel way you're going about getting those needs met that is the problem. The way you prioritize your needs by fucking over the people who care about you the most. There's no REASON to do that, that's what makes it so vile.

You deserve to be loved, but the people who love you deserve to not be abused for loving you.

romantic breakups suck but have you ever been in what you thought was a trio friend group during your formative years but always felt ike you were the odd one out but you told yourself you're just feeling insecure and now you're an adult and you've lost touch with the other two whereas they maintain a strong friendship with each other?

Random musings about an episode where Spectra disguised herself as a student, rather than a counselor to sow misery within the high school! Spreading gossip, being outright malicious, shattering friendships, and all that jazz! Plus, using that fact she looks like a teen against Danny, since unless cornering her, he couldn't fight her without looking like he's attacking a random student.

#she probably also tries to ruin both his reputations as ghost AND as a student #and fits in with the A-listers easily while breaking up their friendships by spreading rumors and gossip #a fun idea! haha i love drawing her so much #something about all the girl designs in this show make me wanna draw them SO bad #the brainrotsreal's art tag ✧˖°:*♡ #digital art #danny phantom #danny phantom fanart #phanart #penelope spectra #dp spectra #dp fanart #i love being PEAK at mental/emotional combat and vlad being peak in physical combat as danny's enemies

Laios's three Boy Best Friends. And yes, they hate him.

#dungeon meshi #laios touden #toshiro nakamoto #chilchuck tims #kabru #BF in this context could be boyfriend or best friend. The line is so blurry. #Chilchuck less so but whatever is going on between Shuro and Laios & Kabru and Laios is giving strong: #“dude if you were a girl I'd date the hell out of you”. And from the genderswap extra's that sentiment is canon for BOTH. #This was made prior to the translation of the Laios & Kabru & Shuro restaurant date comic and honestly I am just feeling vindicated. #I don't even know what to call this dynamic other than a situationship. There is so much going on between all of them. #Even on a purely platonic reading - the miscommunication and male yearning for friendship hurt so bad. #When we got the Big Hug scene in the epilogue arc I was whooping and hollering! Pure catharsis moment! #I also don't like hugs very much so I really felt it went Shuro ('hates being touched') went in for the bear hug. #Do not get me started on the agony of 'always lying' Kabru telling the truth (I just wanted to be friends) #and 'always believes' Laios thinking it's another lie and brushing him off. #I am once again supporting dungeon meshi day by posting art. Please watch dungeon meshi. #obligatory edit because I’m tired: YES. Chilchuck cares for Laios and him admitting it was a huge part of his arc #YES he is more just fed up with him that actually hating him. #I needed a third guy to be canonically done with his ass for the THREE WEED SMOKING GIRLFRIENDS reference

That evening the men were practicing archery on the green. Bill Door had carefully ensured a local reputation as the worst bowman in the entire history of toxophily; it had never occurred to anyone that putting arrows through the hats of bystanders behind him must logically take a lot more skill than merely sending them through a quite large target a mere fifty yards away.

It was amazing how many friends you could make by being bad at things, provided you were bad enough to be funny.

Danny couldn't really explain why he always answered this specific summoning ritual. It was like a feeling. One of warmth. Of a mug of hot cocoa in your hands and a nice weighted blanket dropped around your shoulders as a fire blazed in the hearth in front of you, keeping the chill in the rest of the room at bay.

Danny always lost himself in the sensation and found himself back in that stupid circle of protection with that same wierd guy demanding answers. But Danny didn't know anything about a "Lazarus Pit" or a "Pit Madness" let alone a cure for it. Even if he did he wasn't going to tell Red Robin anything after all the times he'd used the marriage summoning spell to get him here.

Earlier on Red had explained it was the only spell known to thier universe that could summon an entity from "The Lazarus Dimension" Which he guessed was another name for the ghost zone and Phantom was the only one to ever be summoned.

Danny couldn't help but wonder why...

After escaping Bird boy and his supernatural pop quiz (oh look, another test for him to flunk) he returns home only to discover his parents had seen him get summoned and accused him of being a ghost that replaced thier baby boy.

Naturalally the next time Red Robin had summoned Phantom he was angry. He was tired and dirty from being on the run from his parents, his worlds US government, and Vlad. Not to mention his own rogues gallery didn't exactly cut him any slack.

So Danny decided that if Red Robin wanted to abuse the power of a marriage ritual than the very least he can do is put his money where his mouth is.

Danny grinned and exited the magic circle, taking delight in Reds widening eyes before he lunged. A kiss sealed the deal, making sure Danny had a safeish place to stay.

After all, married couples in the infinite realms were obligated and even compelled to protect and care for eachother.

It is a beautiful day, and you are a horrible research transport vessel. Things are progressing as normal (i.e. it's boring) when a SecUnit pings you, lies right to your metaphorical face, and then tries to bribe you with human media to give it a ride. This is as unexpected as it is unprecedented, and the sheer nerve of it is really to be admired. There's no protocol to this, so what should you do?

Now, this is against a bunch of rules, and could be dangerous if you weren't so impressive and incredible, and you're technically an employee (and can probably rewrite the Univeristy charter at will (until someone notices and puts it back)) so those rules are for other entities.

So, what you should do is allow the rogue SecUnit with a broken governor module and a sketchy story aboard. If you check the files it dumps and find zero (0) malware (which is confusing), and it doesn't even try to trash the place or lay in wait to ambush a crew member, then you've got a good candidate!

Next, what you're going to want to do is absolutely nothing. Just watch it patrol your halls until it's time to leave. Continue staring at it while you're undergoing embarkment procedures. Maybe analyze it a little (you've got plenty of processing power to spare) when it finally sits down and starts watching media. Allow it to settle in and get comfortable while you stare at it and get further and further from port.

Now that you two are alone (intimacy is key!) and you've determined that watching media is all the SecUnit is going to do, it's time to make contact! Make sure to open by telling it it's only survived due to dumb luck, and letting it know you could melt its brain into putty. This starter will work to develop conversation naturally and smoothly, just like you've seen the humans do, and it will be smooth sailing from there!

This has been Perihelion's guide to making friends/finding life partners/fuck off Holism I had to work hard for this find your own

#murderbot diaries #murderbot #perihelion #it was not smooth sailing #it took ART about ten minutes to get secunit into a snit so bad it shut down out of spite #but they make it work somehow #tbh despite the rocky start if ART weren’t so ART i don't think the relationship would have lasted #ART is overbearing and kind of a bully and it earned its nickname very well #but i think thats why secunit can get along with it because it comes across as more genuine #mb was distrustful and a little patronizing to miki so while they COULD have been friends if canon hadn't happened it took it until miki #died to realize miki was being genuine about the friendship #whereas with ART MB can be like what we have is weird and I'm not gonna put a label on it #these tags have gotten away from me #anyway can you imagine ART having to explain to Iris and Seth WHY it let SecUnit on?? #like it could have justified it any which way but at the end of the day art was bored and then curious and then intrigued

If you are ever sad please remember that the material component of the Warding Bond spell is a pair of matching rings that the two subjects of the bond both have to wear for the spells duration and imagine that any time any of The Bad Kids cast that spell they’re wearing friendship bracelets instead

#Riz canonically got them all friendship necklaces I think. so maybe just that. #fantasy high #the bad kids

Another TaliaxDanny idea

So we knows those AU where Danny pops out the Lazarus Pits and meets like Damian or Jason.

What if, due to time travel shenanigans or even dimensional reasons Danny pops out of the Lazarus Pits when he was investigating it (maybe he's CW apprentice and helping keeping the Zone in check) and while looking he suddenly gets a sword put to his neck and a voice, a very very spine tingling smooth voice, saying

"Who are you. And how did you find this place."

Out the corner of his eye Danny could see a woman (or if time travel, teen! Talia) around his age and ooooh boy the Fenton 'I love a woman that just might kill me' genes are totally kicking into high gear.

#danny phantom #danny fenton #crossover #dp x dc #blue rambles #danny phantom dc #writing ideas #random idea #dpxdc #talia al ghul #taliaxdanny #i know we normally do King Danny but im feeling more for CW apprentice instead #Danny is down bad for kick butt ladies #Talia is won over by Danny's goofyness tbh #and finds him charming #and never told her father about him #hes her secret that Ra's cant take away #they are friends though even with Dannys crush and Talia refusal to aknowledge their actual friendshi #not that shes against his friendship though she just doesnt wanna admit it due to how she was raised #Danny is the one she tells everything too #depsite his crush on her Danny is respectful towards her feelings and wont make a move #after Ra's is actually dead Talia finally decides to stop ignoring her actual feelings towards Danny btw
