said this in the tags of a previous post from like 5 minutes ago but does anyone have any angsty / hurt/comforty zukka fic ideas they cba to write/want me to write? (bcz there are seriously not enough of those like how the fuck have i read like all of them on ao3 that interest me??? anyways conditions(?) for what i write under the cut)

i don’t like aus much so pls don’t include any (just a personal preference // canon divergence is one idm as much but don’t love)

when it comes to hurt/comfort it doesn’t have to be them comforting eachother (me personally i love those “hakoda finds out accidentally and zuko freaks the fuck out bcz fire nation homophobia but sokka’s just insanely embarrassed and hakoda’s a rlly good dad abt it” fics, also love the idea of iroh talking to zuko abt stuff or other members of the gaang finding out+talking abt it)

would prefer if it either included a focus on either queer stuff/coming out or outing/homophobia discussions/etc or mental illness shit (eg. zukos extreme daddy issues or shit like sh/suicide bcz fuck you i like what i like)

piggy backing off that i have no idea how to write mcd so pls don’t suggest it

am cool with making it zukki/suzukka instead of just zukka

the ship itself doesn’t have to be main focus of the fic i just want them in there

idm at all writing stuff that implies/references sex and i don’t really mind including actual sexual content but i’ve never written smut before and don’t wanna write smthn rn thats nsfw-focused so if u include that in ur prompt just be aware i might have to skip and imply the scene or i might not write it bcz yay writers block (it’s connected i promise-)

VERY happy to make either of them autistic and will probably write zuko like that anyway

PLEASE if u have an idea but think it’s cringe or weird or whatever just send it (on anon if u want) and if u have an idea but are not sure if it fits just send it with a disclaimer, i’d rather have a lot of bad ideas like what happens everytime i ask for bsd ideas than nothing bcz the eldritch horrors have maybe allowed me to write for the first time in ages and i rlly wanna put a fic out

please don’t be super vague i’m too autistic for that 😭

plz send the requests as asks, not a reblog or comment (just so i have them all in the same place)

sorry this was kinda long and idk if anyone’ll respond to this but yeah there’s srsly not enough of this kinda fic in this fandom (and i’m not even gonna mention how i wrote my kyoshi fic in april and it’s STILL the only fic like that abt her so what the fuck)

oh also yeah my ao3 is Raines_Adopted_Son

Oh, yeah. Really the only downside to writing fics is when a character is vastly diff from you. Now I have to teach myself all these things that they would be knowledgeable in. Agreed, I feel like the androids could be committing all these crimes and get away with it, especially the more advance ones like Connor and Nines

A Court of Thorns and Roses? I’ve seen that title floating around. There is an artist I follow who mentioned it before but I don’t really know anything about it. Oh, I’ve read the Giver and the other books in the series. I had a friend who owned the books so I read them. I don’t really remember what happens in them since it’s been so long. The book is called Queer Transfigurations: Boys Love Media in Asia by James Welker. What I like about the book is that they have more than one voice (21 contributors specializing in different fields) to analyze the subject material. Tho I’m not sure how popular the book is so I don’t know if it’ll be in bookstores

Ok, I’ll just start with meatbun and mxtx novel carrds

Meat bun:

2ha - https://erhainfo.carrd.co/

Yuwu - https://stainsoffilth.carrd.co/#

Bab - https://babmeatbun.carrd.co/

MXTX

Tgcf - https://stanhualian.carrd.co/

Mdzs - https://stanwangxian.carrd.co/

Svsss- https://svsssmxtx.carrd.co/#

No worries about not knowing chinese! English is one of the more popular languages that they are translated into. Spanish? What words do you know in spanish??? I know spanish as well! It makes me happy when others know other languages even if it is just a couple words!!

Other works that I’ve enjoyed that should still have english translations up; I’ve added both the carrds and direct link to the english translations:

https://qi-weishang.carrd.co/ (https://chrysanthemumgarden.com/novel-tl/twf/ - direct link to the english translation)

https://dpubfttb.carrd.co/ (https://chrysanthemumgarden.com/novel-tl/dpubftb/ - direct link to the english translation)

https://misvil.carrd.co/# (https://chrysanthemumgarden.com/novel-tl/misvil/ - direct link to the english translation)

https://tihc.carrd.co/#about (two diff groups translated parts of the story so I don’t have a direct link to the english translations but you can find them in the link section of the carrd!)

Sorry, this response was so short. Idk why but lately I’ve been feeling so drained 🙃😭. Maybe I just need a long nap 😴

XD Yeah! That's it basically! It's why I stress so much over writing Vash. Man's got like, 100+ years of knowledge in there and a lot of details are not shared about Gunsmoke/No Man's Land. And them androids gotta have books and books of knowledge up in there. Those of the RK line can pre-generate outcomes and choose the best suited one, and oh boy, I'm gonna have to put way more effort and thought into their actions than any other character I think I've written so far, and I already have to do this with a few characters I'm writing fics for currently that take a lot of brain power. There's a fic I wanna write for a fandom I have not posted for yet, and I just… Worry that I won't be able to properly capture the character in question because he's just so different from me and in canon, he's kinda like Vash in that he puts up a front and I honestly… Can't tell what's an act and what's not. He's very eccentric and I… XD Fear I won't be able to capture it, or how he really feels inside. I really wanna write it though. At some point, but probably not any time soon. My thought process was basically: "Oh shit. They'd make the best yanderes. 👀"

:0 Oh cool! XD I don't either! I think the way I heard about it was I was listening to someone's book reviews on Youtube? For a while, I was super into trying to find good book series that suited my tastes, but I kinda fell into the habit of just buying books and never reading them? <.< I lost interest in a lot of hobbies I enjoyed a lot before and reading happened to be one of them. I've started to get back into it now, but… Yeah. !! I thought there were more books beyond it! I'll have to look out for them in the future, see if the store I buy books at get them eventually. Surprised me to see it on the shelf, you know? It's an older book, and quite a few go out of print after a while, leaving me looking on places like Amazon for used copies. I honestly don't remember much of the series either, I'll be honest, just that it's about a boy and a baby his family is taking care of? I just remember it was really dark and the first book left on a cliffhanger. :0 Oh wow! 21! That's amazing! I don't know either. :/ I don't think I've seen it where I live, but I'll keep an eye out!

:0 Omg! Thank you so much! I'm gonna be pulling all of these up lol.

Yeah, Spanish! :D You too?!? Awesome! X'D Oh gosh! My Spanish has gotten super rusty! I've forgotten a lot. It's only the kinds of things you'd learn taking it for two years in high school, simple stuff like hotel and restaurant questions, how to introduce yourself, say your age and the days of the week, food names, emotions, feelings, creating simple sentences,… I let myself fall off if I'm honest mostly because I really had no opportunity to actually use it in my daily life beyond actively trying and going out of my way and/or going into online Spanish spaces as I don't know many Spanish speakers around here.

:0 Oh cool! Thank you so much! I will be checking all of these out!

Hey, no worries! Put your needs first, okay? Stay hydrated, take some time to yourself to just relax and rest. Take as long as you need to respond to me, okay? Don't ever feel pressured.

maybe this is unhinged bc it’s been a whole year now but your peter fics are some of the best writing ive ever read, i swear i think about them like once a week and go back and reread them and ive been doing that for the whole year now 😭 and they still make me blush and giggle and kick my feet as if i was reading it for the first time. thank you for sharing your art, for bringing me so much joy this year, for everything ❤️

(wanted to add onto the last ask) - i just saw some of your recent posts and i’m even more emotional now, learning you’re also southeast asian. no wonder i’ve felt so SEEN in your fics. from a fellow queer asian, thank you endlessly <3

this is seriously the sweetest and kindest message ive ever gotten in my inbox and ever. i literally almost cried when i read this and when i reread it. im so so happy that you resonated with my fics and the fact that you’ve been rereading them over the last year makes me want to sob omg i honestly cant believe it’s been that long already. i haven’t been writing as much as i’d like in recent months bc school has been on my ass 24/7 but knowing that you’ve been enjoying my work makes me want to write more. literature is such a wonderful medium and im glad i got to share this year with you in whatever capacity

im so glad my fics make you feel seen. growing up as a queer asian, i turned to fanfics bc i wanted to be part of the stories that i saw on screen. we don’t get represented that often in media, and when we do, we’re usually stereotyped to hell. i just wanted to be seen and heard and loved. i want to go on adventures and experience amazing worlds. i also want other people to feel that. writing has always been a super personal thing for me. i only write things i can put myself in and i am very careful with trying to include as many people as i can. white-coding has been a super big issue ive noticed in fics and i never want to make people feel the way i do when i realize that the piece was not written for me and never meant for me

thank you for reading my work and thank you for enjoying it as much as i enjoyed writing it. it will always be for you and for me and for all of us who are never seen or heard

#i am sorry i took a bit to reply but i wanted to be able to sit down and take my time responding to your ask!!#also ILY AND I HOPE THE BEST FOR YOU ALWAYS #and omg learning that a fic writer is also SEA/viet brings me so much joy i too feel so seen #i haven’t written for peter in a long time but i think that was the peak on my tumblr career #maybe i should start writing for him again #those wips aren’t going to get done themselves #asks #anon

HUGE NOT ME SPOILERS THROUGH THE WHOLE POST!!!

So I’m a huge not me fan and have been watching since episode 1. Im really trying to kind of process the last episode but idk how to feel about it at all. Not me is a fantastic series and im glad I watched it, but honestly I hated this episode. Not saying it’s bad or anything, but it just wasn’t my taste. Anyway im about to rant so if you don’t wanna see it don’t read lol :””)

1). the Todd black wrap up was so bizarre? and also unrealistic??? how the hell would black have escaped unscathed and put Todd into a coma with all of those body guards, WHO ARE ARMED BTW, protecting Todd. I mean good for black I guess but I don’t understand how it’s logistically possible. I guess I can understand the motive might just be hurt and revenge and be as simple as “imma beat this man up” which is fine ig, but honestly I expected more to come from that scene (I wanted to see black escape and kick ass) and that’s my own damn fault.

2). What happened with tawi?? he just got super angry and then we never saw him again? i think there was a news broadcast about his second in command getting arrested but other than that I have no idea if he is being prosecuted/brought to justice ?? I guess this doesn’t matter as much seeing as how we barely saw tawi anyway, but I’d like to know 😭

3). All of them got happy endings ,.,., honestly watching queer characters make it out on top and be happy and successful is the ONLY thing I want to see, but those endings didn’t fit with the story. They could have if pacing was different or if there was more episodes inbetween, but it felt rushed and fake and not true to the characters. Yok punching Dan and then hugging him? i get that yok has always been head over heals for Dan but the last thing yok said to him was that he should have listened to Dan the first time and never been a part of his life. Sure, 3 weeks had passed and within those three weeks he realized people can change and be forgiven, but it still felt too fast because I as a viewer didn’t see the learning grieving and acceptance that yok had to go through during these past 3 weeks to get to the point where he can forgive Dan. It just felt so rushed and like a bandaid type of ending. For a show that made people feel so deeply for so long, I felt like there wasn’t a lot of care put into the ending and that makes me feel genuinely upset as someone who has been watching these characters grow for the past 14 weeks. I wanted them to have a happy ending, all of them. or at least an open ending that could be happy. but this…. this was a tell and not show kind of ending. We will tell the audience that the characters got a happy ending and try to explain in a quick summary how that happened, but won’t really show anything other than kiss scenes. and for a show that was built off showing the audience feelings and depths and motivations, it really didn’t fit.

4). GRAM??? HELLO?!??? the writers literally do not care about him AT ALL!!! every damn week I was defending the writers saying stuff like “oh it’s because grams a traitor!!! we don’t know his motivations likes dislikes etc because he’s PRETENDING !!!” I was like “don’t worry guys he’s only on screen .5 seconds of each episode because he’s WORKING WITH TAWI OR TODD 🤡🤡”. i really defended their lack of care for gram by creating a whole ass theory. And the worst part is that IT WOULD HAVE ACTUALLY MADE SENSE. but instead here we are. With gram literally just not being a part of the story at all, for literally no damn reason.

5). weird ass plot hole about Dan being the traitor since the beginning (but maybe I’m just stupid and can’t follow along 🤡) I’m guessing it was Dan who sold out their hide out (which I didn’t originally think until this ep) ??? so like Dan was the traitor since the first time he met yok or what???? because I was under the impression that Dan was actively helping them, got found out, and then was the traitor at the end for the drug bust. Especially since that scene with tawis men was very much like “if you don’t stop messing around with that gang I’ll hurt your parents” and he only knew about the gangs hide out for A SINGLE DAY BEFORE TAWIS PEOPLE CAME INTO IT ???? so I didn’t think he sold them out about the garage but I GUESS I WAS WRONG ???

all in all the biggest problem I have with not me is that my expectations were through the roof. This show captivated me for so long and made me care so deeply for these characters and their cause. The fact that the ending left so much to be desired and left me feeling SO incredibly disappointed is a lot for me to process rn lol.

for the ask game: kyle and kenny

tysm for the ask!!

putting these under a read more because i feel bad about making people scroll through it LMAO

for kyle:

Why I like them: WHERE TO BEGIN. kyle’s been one of my absolute favorites for a looong time, and I’m starting to think the top spot is his forever lol. He’s emotionally complex in a really relatable, strangely realistic way, and the episodes that nail his character are some of the best in the show imo. He’s such a little spitfire and it’s so charmingly adorable, and that wrapped up with his fraternal instinct, his martyr complex, and his powerful (but a little weird) moral compass makes him such an intriguing character. Also I think his hair is cute <3

Why I don’t: I think how insufferable he is at times is adorable, so I’m a bad person to answer this question LMAO - if I had to choose something, it would be him throwing his friends under the bus from time to time. Him screwing Kenny over in Jewbilee was hilarious, but still mean :(

Favorite episode (scene if movie): There are so many good ones that it’s impossible to choose! But Guitar Queer-O, You Have 0 Friends, Toilet Paper, Free Willzyx, The Jeffersons, the Black Friday trilogy, Margaritaville, etc. are some of my favorites as well as being really good for his characterization.

Favorite season/movie: Can’t choose!

Favorite line: There are a ton of good (and more insightful) ones, but I love “Dude, you don’t understand. I’m a Jew. I have a few hangups about killing Jesus.” Just assume that I think all of his lines (especially the ones in his speeches) are wonderful and perfect.

Favorite outfit: is there any other answer other than elf king Kyle? (yes, there is, and it’s either jersey kyle, his weirdly high effort outfit in ‘are you there god? it’s me, Jesus’, and his cute hair in elementary school musical)

OTP: Both K2 and style have a special place in my heart, but I also love cryle - I just want him to be happy 🥺

Brotp: also style and k2, but tokyle is also very appealing especially after the special! i also think kyle + wendy make for an interesting brotp, and I like kyle and bebe as friends too!

Head Canon: I have so many of these, but they’re all super situational and specific, so I’ll just list a general one - I think he’s gay, and I’ll go into detail if anyone’s curious about why!

Unpopular opinion: I’ve mentioned this before, but I reaaaally think people who call Kyle equally as athletic as Stan are really grasping for straws lol. He’s certainly athletic and definitely has a penchant for basketball, but every other sport he’s played has been with every other guy in the class - and his interests in sports in general just isn’t nearly as prominent as Stan’s. The ridiculously sporty Kyle headcanon really isn’t as popular nowadays as it has been in the past, but there are still frequent posts asking why Stan is seen as more athletic than Kyle - to which I respond that it’s true, and you’re also five years late to this debate. The fandom has mostly leveled out when it comes to extreme views of Kyle, so I guess my main unpopular opinion is actually just ‘lay off on this tired old debate’ instead of contradicting a headcanon of the character himself.

A wish: for him to end up happy someday :( he deserves it

An oh-god-please-don’t-ever-happen: Him and Stan ever permanently separating as friends - they need each other 😭

5 words to best describe them: good-natured, self-righteous, temperamental, compassionate, intelligent

My nickname for them: don’t have one!

for kenny:

Why I like them: The Poor Kid will never not tug at my heartstrings. Kenny’s obviously vulgar and crude at a first glance, but the tenderness of his character really is undeniable when you look deeper - he has so much internal struggle and suffering, but he still maintains so much kindness and love for the people he cares about (even 40 years later!) and that makes it really hard not to adore him.

Why I don’t: this implies that there is any reason to dislike Kenny, to which I say nay (all jokes aside, this is actually hard for me to come up with something - if I had to pick a reason why I didn’t get immediately attached to kenny like I did with some other characters, it would just be that he doesn’t have as much of a prominent role in the show - you really have to dig deep or get involved in the fandom to properly appreciate him the way he deserves)

Favorite episode (scene if movie): The Poor Kid!

Favorite season/movie: Again, not good at picking specific seasons, but if the superhero trilogy counts as a movie, then definitely that one.

Favorite line: “I can't die. I've experienced death countless times. Sometimes, I see a bright light. Sometimes, I see Heaven or Hell. But eventually, no matter what, I wake up in my bed wearing my same old clothes. The wort part? No one even remembers me dying. I go to school the next day and everyone is just like "Oh, Hey Kenny," even if they had seen me get decapitated with their own eyes. You want to whine about Curses, Hindsight? You're talking to the wrong fucking cowboy.” With his letter to his friends in Going Native as a close second.

Favorite outfit: Mysterion! With Kenny’s pink metrosexual outfit as a very close second

OTP: K2 is the absolute OTP imo for kenny, but I also have a soft spot for crenny and kendy 🥺

Brotp: stenny and crenny for sure! kenbe is also very cute as a brotp

Head Canon: He’s actually very smart! And you guys have no idea how thrilled I was to see this confirmed in the special. His grades aren’t great because he’s maintaining a job, taking care of his sister, and Mysterion-ing around at night instead of getting sleep and doing his homework, but he’s still super clever.

Unpopular opinion: The general consensus among a solid portion of this fandom is trans girl/genderfluid Kenny, but I really just see Kenny as a more feminine cis guy. I do enjoy content with those headcanons, but I also think the prevalence of them brings to light this fandom’s tendency to take male characters with feminine qualities and make them nb/trans, while suspiciously leaving the more masculine characters as cis. I’m intrigued by the trans girl and nonbinary Kenny headcanons, but I would love to see more solid reasoning other than ‘character wears a dress, therefore must be a girl’.

A wish: give him more screen time!!!

An oh-god-please-don’t-ever-happen: I don’t think it’s likely at this point, but I would hate for them to kill him off for good.

5 words to best describe them: Loyal, selfless, mature, cynical, kind

My nickname for them: don’t have one!
