Alexander Claremont-Diaz would like the record to show that he is not, in fact, a brat.

Alexander Claremont-Diaz would like the record to show that he is not, in fact, a brat.

“This is slander upon my person.” His drink sloshes wildly over the edges of his cup as he gesticulates, not to anyone in particular but to the world at large. “Give me the fucking BDSM test link; I will prove it to you assholes right now, and I expect a full apology when I’m done.”

The test comes back 96% brat. Alex sulks for the rest of the night.

super curious about your chapter 10 notes will they be coming soon?

firstly BLESS you for asking. i tend to think of the author's notes as an extreme personal indulgence so actually love that you want em lmao

i do have some notes but was actually saving them to post chapter 10 and 11 together! so not to spam everyone more than i already do (lol). so expect a bumper AN for chapter eleven. but i do have a little bonus meta i am about to post that relates to chapter 10 so hope that will suffice for now!

#beasts #yes it's about sirius and ginny #because of who i am as a person #thanks for asking anon!

You know what? Screw integrity, posting thirst traps it is! Step one: take a popular character, and put them in an apron!

(Pretty sure I’m doing it right!)

#master chief #Halo #halo games #master chef #strike a pose! #could I have just cut out some white fabric. tied it onto him. and called it an apron? #yes yes I could #but I CHOSE to instead spend an hour making a perfectly fitted and hemmed apron to his exact specifications instead #because of who I am as a person

Well, I have just had a surprise. Instead of getting a deer necklace, in this playthrough I have a puma necklace. Are you able to explain what determines what necklace the Speaker receives? Are there more animal types?

the necklace is based on what your personality stats are at the time of the conversation. there are 4 different types: Deer (for "cordial" Speakers, or those with a friendly disposition), Mockingbird (for "impudent" or sarcastic Speakers), Puma (for "aloof" or quiet Speakers), and Badger (for anyone who doesn't fall into the other categories)

which type of necklace you got ultimately won't play a major role, and is just for flavor... what you choose to do with the necklace, on the other hand, could be important later on ;)

#speaker game #I chose those animals after a frankly ridiculous amount of time searching new agey 'mystical animal associations' #because of who I am as a person

seven sentence sunday

i’m not actively writing anything right now but here’s a wip that i have to fix and adjust after my mcat this friday hehe. 

tagging everyone who’s tagged me in a writing/wip game lately: @deareddie @nymika-arts @fcntasmas @woodchoc-magnum @captain-hen ily guys <3

“Not if I go through all the back roads,” comes a faint voice on the other end, just as warm as her brother’s, heavy with concern that feels too intimate for her to listen in to it.

Instantly, Adriana knows who this is — someone she and Sophia tease Eddie endlessly about.

They’ve met Buck briefly, at Eddie’s probationary ceremony. His pride in her brother had been spilling from him, unabashed about the glossy tears that shone in his bright blue eyes. Adriana had noticed the way Eddie’s gaze immediately found Buck’s after Christopher, as if he would only allow himself the moment if it meant his partner could be with him in it.

And she’d noticed the way Eddie’s arms had wrapped tightly around his best friend, patting him on the back and guiding him over to Christopher, where they’d immediately fallen naturally into a conversation that had spoken volumes about this new family unit that Eddie had found himself immersed in.

There are ten years between her and Eddie. He’d enlisted just after she’d turned eight, and was gone shortly after that. Any memories she’s held onto of him are of him braiding her hair gently where her mother would yank too hard, or dropping her off at school before disappearing into the high school across the street, or her having to walk across the street to wait for him after his baseball practices to go home.

tagging @bieddiediaz @oneawkwardcookie @ao3theskyisblue and anyone who hasn’t done this yet!

#zee's writing process #seven sentence sunday #tag games #fic tag games #writing tag games #im struggling because now i have ages to adjust and lore to adjust #and somehow they keep making eddie's backstory so sossososososo tragic #and i have to lean into that #because of who i am as a person

Am I restarting CotL again so I can take the Pit Fight ritual instead of the Wedding and unlock that in the postgame so I can marry a tsundere cat boy without anyone else asking first? MAYBE SO.

#like item 1 I wanna see if the crush chain leads to a pit fight if I'm not a marriage candidate #that sounds hilarious #item 2 it's awkward to be like 'oh. no I unlocked this ritual because eventually I'm going to fight god and then put a ring on him.' #'I understand the confusion and thank you but no' #much easier to avoid marriage proposals if our cult does not have marriage as A Thing until I wanna do it #tea plays too many games #I'm also writing fanfic about this game. somehow. somewhy. #why isn't somewhy a real word we have somewhat and somehow #anyway yeah I was like 'I want a romantic throughline with my horrible cat god-husband' #so #fic #because of who I am as a person #SHOULD I be replaying when they're gonna release a big expansion this year? #maybe not. maybe I should wait. #AM I going to wait? #uh. signs point to no.

this is a bit from a prompt fill i want to share with y'all tonight or tomorrow!!!

---

If one time is a happenstance and two times is a coincidence, then three times is absolutely a pattern, one Obi-Wan is sober enough to see this time around, even if he’s not quite sure how to handle it.

He’s sitting in his favorite armchair—just the slightest more plush than what used to be Qui-Gon’s favorite, though they’d gotten into many arguments about the same thing (but, since Obi-Wan is alive, he does get the last word)—and Anakin is bustling around in the kitchen.

#too soon??? #lol sorry for the short snippett i am just having fun writing this #and my keyboard is cooperating!!! #honeslty tho idk where this came from #like? it'll probably be 3k #i mean i do know where it came from #it was a prompt fill #someone asked for obi-wan comforting anakin #it's a little to the left of that #because of who i am as a person #but i know a few people whose favorite anakin is this sort of anakin so i am writing it for them <3 #obikin

My best conversations with my siblings happen when we’re either together for a short/pre-determined amount of time (unexpectedly on the bus together), or supposed to be somewhere else (talking in a doorway or another room, when we’re supposed to be with other people)

Turning up at 10.30 for an 11.45 train is a new personal best for me.

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

#ramble #if you say unalive in front of me i will personally kill you with my hands #you just can't muffle and censor and hold someone's hand through some things #some things are horrible. and they should be spoken aloud and they should upset you. because they are horrible #the second we started kidzbopifying the world was the end of taking anything seriously i think #i'm not even joking i've spoken to people older than me who won't even say the world sex #this isn't the playground you're not going to get in trouble just let us say the word!!!!!! #how am i supposed to listen to you when you won't even say the thing you're supposed to be talking about #yes this is the fault of the platforms with their censorship rules but the fact that we all just go along with it like it's not dystopian #you do know it doesn't stop with cursing right. people are already having to censor queer terms because they get flagged as inappropriate

jfc i just saw a "morally grey girlboss" poll and mabel pines was one of the contenders. she's not morally grey she's not a girlboss she's 12 and never makes a single moral decision that's worse than "you have stuff going on but i'm focused on my own problems" what are you fucking talking about

#fan wank / #she's up against characters who have done actual murders #and she's getting a nontrivial amount of votes!!! #yall have brainrot i am sorry #i saw the poll because she was up against one of the MECHANISMS #you know. the band of immortal space pirates that think killing is fun? #i understand that more people watch gf but HOW WAS SHE GETTING ANY VOTES #honestly if i saw her matched against someone i didnt know i'd vote for the person i didnt know. she simply does not meet the requirements

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...

#not a shitpost #serious post #ask to tag #tw trauma #cptsd #c-ptsd #and if so we should TALK about it #because it means there are a whole group of survivors out there whose mental health regularly worsens during holidays #like i know i am most certainly not the only person who feels an undefined Dread hanging over christmas/my birthday/july 4 etc #bc too many shitty things happened during those times and now my brain is hypervigilant bc traditionally these are the Danger Times #and this seems like it would be particularly common for survivors of abusive/dysfunctional households (aka most people with c-ptsd) #because holidays/vacations typically mean 1) the whole family is together/being forced to interact #2) and undergoing external stressors e.g. travel/relatives aka 'outsiders' visiting/routines & coping mechanisms being interrupted etc #3) there is social pressure for this to be a Fun Family Bonding Experience which only highlights the cracks in the foundation #and exposes the common Everything Is Fine/We Are A Happy Family lie #4) the cognitive dissonance of feeling tired/anxious/stressed/afraid during a time when you are 'supposed' to be Making Good Memories #and then everyone is angry/tired/anxious/triggered and things boil over and something or someone goes Very Wrong #weird that i'm posting this in october when halloween is...sort of the ONLY holiday i have only good and happy feelings towards #i got lucky there #also i have positive feelings towards Labor Day but that's for socialist reasons

the injustice of the rat grinders technically playing by the rules and getting lauded for it because they have discipline and are generally Good at School vs the bad kids literally saving the world every other day and having to play catch-up to be acknowledged for it. the way that public school only caters to people who are good at "playing the game" of the education system and anyone that can't function how the school deems you should under its strict policies and conditions is tossed aside and called a failure. how are we feeling, american public school survivors?

#as a disabled person who did well in high school only because i could see how they wanted me to respond #and then as soon as college came and you actually had to like. think and do stuff. i fell apart #i am seeing some truths that. hurt. #fhjy #d20 #dimension 20 #fantasy high

While we're on the topic of De-aging AU's I wanna talk about Jason and Damian if Jason was 14 again real quick.

Do you guys think that Damian looks at this version of Jason, so different from the version he knows, nothing like the person he was told Jason was, and feels uncomfortably seen?

Damian was always told that Jason died because he was reckless, because he disobeyed orders, he was fired as Robin and he got himself killed. A cautionary tale, not a threat to his position. He dismisses Jason because Bruce does, because Dick does, because sometimes even Babs and Alfred do.

That's not the kid that he's looking at now. This Jason is happy, and smart, and full of love that has not yet soured into grief. He hangs on Bruce's every word, trains until his hands bleed and his body gives out to perfect the moves Bruce teaches him. He looks at Bruce with stars in his eyes and he calls him dad.

And Damian can't help but think, that this is the perfect Robin. The perfect son. And if Jason - sweet, loving, strong, Jason - can be fired, can die and have his room locked away and his pictures torn down, can have his last memory as Robin be as A Good Soldier, how could the rest of them ever compete? What could Damian do to stand a chance?

Jason will never grow out of the shadow of Robin, like the rest of them did. As long as Bruce, and Dick, and Babs, and Alfred look at him and see a dead kid who came back wrong, he will never get to be anything else. He will not get to be looked at through who he is now without the shadow of a dead boy looming over him.

And the worst part? Jason is exactly the same person he was back then. Bitter, sure, angry, justifiably, but he is still the boy with too much love in his heart and righteous fury festering in his gut. He is exactly the same boy who threw himself in front of an explosion to save his mother.

(The lines between the mother that betrayed him and the father that disgraced him are so very blurred. Fire or blade or crowbars or fists it does not matter. It ends the same way it always does because Jason Todd always dies, in every universe, in every timeline, Jason dies and crawls out only to be killed again and again and again.)

#dc #jason todd #damian wayne #de aging #I personally am obsessed with the headcanon that they met in the league which lends it's own sense of tragedy #but this is a more canon take on it #Bruce Wayne critical #do you guys think he watched Jason fall back into old routines and is so unbelievably angry because none of it matters #do you think he listens to Jason talk about homework and his grades and his clubs and the colleges he wants to go to #and all he can think of is how unfair it is #that Jason never gets it. That everything about who he was got distorted and exaggerated and there was nothing left of this boy #that the love and blood and late nights never mean anything because this is a ghost walking the halls disproving all the legends #what is the prodigal son to do when he comes home but the locks have changed
