audio rp is cringe yeah yeah blah blah all that stuff
the main reason it’s perceived as cringe is not only because of the poor quality of a lot of them, but also because no one is willing to take them seriously.
literally every piece of fictional, entertainment media created is just people pretending. the magic happens by convincing the audience that what’s happening in a film or a book is real. or (a better way of wording it would be) by evoking strong emotions, so that even though the media is fake, those emotions are real. and they compel the audience to immerse themselves further in this fake universe. if the audience allows it, that is.
if you were to watch a film and completely disregard the intent behind all of the scripting, acting etc and just view it as people playing pretend, then it’s very easy to see it as cringe. that’s why so many people say they couldn’t be an actor. by taking media seriously, it heightens the immersion and overall experience. with poor quality literature and films, it’s very hard to take them seriously, even if the concept is great. i think that can be applied to audio role plays.
if people would genuinely sit back and immerse themselves in the universes that these creators make, i think they’d find them really enjoyable and these audios wouldn’t be looked down upon as much as they currently are. sure, its hard to look past the poor quality of some of them, but this is such a niche branch of media with so little general acceptance, i think it’s fair to allow people’s audios to not have the same level of quality as media created by megalithic corporations. but no, they’re made fun of to the point where people create reaction videos to them, laughing at every word and refusing to accept that this is just another way of expressing a story (a more immersive way than others if you ask me).
also, some audio role plays are just cringe. that’s not gonna change. i can’t stand 90% of them bc the voice acting is so bad and unserious, and they’re practically just fan service for horny, lonely people 😭 this whole ramble is mostly about those few gems that are the channels ive managed to find amongst all the neko yandere mommy daddy mafia boss deep voice shit. there’s bad films and books out there that are cringey and fan-servicey, but one bad version of one of those doesn’t impact the public’s view of the rest. why does it only apply to this medium?

not to sound like an annoying karen, but i honestly, truly feel that netflix has fucked up the kdrama genre for good.
just 10-ish years ago, there were kdramas that the big 3 korean channels (SBS, MBC, KBS) would broadcast and then there were kdramas that the main cable channels (jTBC and tvN) would broadcast. and between those groupings, you got everything. you got 16-20 episodes of dramas that had heartfelt writing, filmed with bright colors, filmed with concise plots, that most of the time, ended WELL. you got a GOOD ending that was complete. the works felt authentically south korean. yes, there were cheesy tropes and moments that made you cringe, but it felt so real. and you had SO many kdramas airing during the week! you couldn't keep track of just how many!
cut to netflix coming in and making it big with kdramas with squid game and some romantic works and then suddenly they (and disney+) are making these short kdramas, less than 10 episodes, with generic filters, generic plots, and poorly written scripts that are just mere shadows of what kdramas used to be. they end shitty 90% of the time. and worst of all, they feel like american shows. and no, i don't mean sex scenes or action scenes because hey, i love change there, but i mean the entire VIBES are just off. they're not the kdramas i fell in love with, the ones that felt so human. and thanks to these big, foreign companies coming in, the main broadcast channels have basically shut down 1/2 their timeslots, and so many dramas aren't even getting aired these days.
yes times change progress is great robots will probably replace us all in a few years blah blah, but it's really depressing to me personally since i have such fond memories of the utter joy of kdramas, especially from the golden era of 2008-2017. and while there are some that escape the netflix!americanized! curse, it's unfortunately the majority that remain nothing but commercial puppets, rather than authentic entertainment.

I think some people just literally can't comprehend that other people are different from them like different values different ways of thinking and don't share your same anxieties. it comes out in full force on social media some people look so stupid always asking questions like "why would so and so do blah blah blah" are you really asking that with your full ass out rn? are you seriously asking why people aren't you? cringe main character ass behavior

The Fire of All Hells
“I can’t fucking do this anymore, holy shit. She’s killing me.”
“Killing you? I don’t think it’s that serious, man.” Gareth laughs.
“No.” Eddie says harshly. “If you heard what she was saying yesterday… holy fuck, you’d understand. She is killing me.” He groans. 
“Well, dude, you know what you could do?” Jeff replies sarcastically.
Eddie, Jeff, and Gareth were all setting up in the drama room and you figured you’d show up a little early with the cookies you made after Eddie left you yesterday. 
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
While you didn’t play DnD, you were an odd sort of an ‘unofficial’ member. You and Eddie have been friends forever so it was kind of pushed into your lap when he wanted to start his little club. And since it was a group of dimwit boys, you unwarrantedly became the founding mother of the club… alongside the founding father, Eddie— who, have it be noted, has zero organizational capabilities, not an ounce of time management skills, and absolutely no faith entrusted in him by any school faculty members. And for all of those reasons, that is why you were roped into this weird little club.
Eddie practically begged for you to be the one to ask the teachers to start the group. His far from perfect rep with them would have made the teachers obviously turn him down… but you on the other hand… you're liked enough, get good enough grades, and although have been tied to Eddie in numerous ways (including physically that one time when Eddie bought industrial level handcuffs, brought them to school to show off, cuffed you and him together to demonstrate, realized he lost the keys, and then you both spend the day cuffed together until Wayne got home to saw you free), you keep out of trouble for the most part. 
After a week of Eddie groveling and a few deals set between you too, you gave in. At the time, you were in your freshman year, and Eddie was promised Wayne’s old van once he got his license, so he set the deal that he would drive you to school and home everyday (which now that you're both in your senior year, it’s a promise that he has mostly held up overtime). He also promised his eternal friendship, which was already a given so that barely sweetened the deal. It’s kind of foggy at this point, being so long ago, but you’re sure he also bought you some other shit, probably stole you some beer too, because god knows you two were fiends for any alcohol back then. 
Since you had to ask to start up the club, it was your name under the club registry so it was always the drama teacher up your ass about making sure everything was cleaned properly, put away, no food left behind because of the mice… blah blah blah. So yeah… you’re practically the sole standing reason hellfire exists at Hawkins High but you don’t like to think about that… if you think too hard about it, you can’t help but cringe internally. You don’t mind their little group but you’d rather not be known as their leader— that’s all Eddie.
You knew Eddie because his dad and your dad were friends back in high school. The only difference between the two men was when your mom got pregnant with you, your dad cleaned up his life. Eddie’s dad on the other hand was the first to get a girl pregnant out of the two of them— which coincidentally happened in the same year; however, Eddie’s dad couldn’t quite give up his lifestyle. He tried for a bit, he really did, especially after Eddie’s mom skipped town, but it was just hard for him. It didn’t help when he got an injury doing some kind of labor job either. The doctors prescribed him some heavy pain medicine and that’s kind of when everything went to shit. 
As a kid you never noticed. At 8 years old, you were oblivious to the havoc being dragged through the lives of everyone around you. You thought it was all fun and games. Eddie had come and stayed with your family for a few weeks and you thought it was the best. It was like a giant sleepover, probably the closest thing you’ve ever had to a sibling. 
Then Wayne came into the picture. He was living down south, working as a truck driver. Once his brother got his sentence, he moved up, got the trailer, got a job at the plant, and started taking care of Eddie. He was a saint in the body of a mean-looking, tough talking trucker. Not really mean though, he’s a big ole softy, he just doesn’t let most people know that. 
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
You take a step further into the drama room, not purposefully trying to eavesdrop, you just didn’t mean to interrupt their conversation so abruptly.
“I can’t do that.” Eddie says flatly.
“You can dude. There’s no way she doesn’t know already. Everyone already thinks you’re together since you touch her nonstop. Seriously. You’re like, attached to her at all times.” Gareth says.
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
Eddie’s always been touchy. Always. Gareth’s not wrong, he always has some part of himself connected to you, whether it’s a knee under the table or an arm around your shoulder, that’s just how he’s always been. He’s never shied away from physical touch and that’s normal for you two after all these years. He was your first hug with a boy, first hand hold with a boy, first kiss, second kiss. It’s always been innocent enough though, he’s your best friend after all, it just so happens to be that he’s a boy. Not a boy boy. Just a boy. 
At 7 years old that’s when you two had first kissed. Then again at 10.
The first time, he was making you play some stupid game where he was a knight and you were a princess and according to him, obviously the knight had to kiss the princess. The second time he wanted to ‘practice’ playing spin the bottle. It was only the two of you so you had thought it was a dumb idea but it was Summer and you had been banished from the trailer after spending the weekend blasting the TV and probably stopping Wayne from getting any rest. 
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
Summer of 1978
Eddie had spun the bottle 27 times before it finally landed on you. 27 times. You still remember counting each failed spin, laughter getting rowdier and rowdier at your best friend's terrible luck. The 27th time, he lit up like a damn Christmas tree when the neck of the bottle finally slowed, landing point blank in your direction. You couldn’t help the laughing fit that overcame you and you had thrown yourself backwards, clenching your aching stomach, head softly hitting the dirt floor of the forest clearing you two frequented. That’s when Eddie snuck up and stole the kiss. 
You would have let him kiss you, cause that was all part of the game after all. You both had agreed on the rules before starting, but that didn’t stop your surprise when his scrawny little 11 year old body fell over yours. 
You still remember distinctly the way he had grabbed your hands to pull them away from where you were holding your stomach. He pinned them both beside your head, similar to when you’d wrestle, and he looked at you with the biggest signature Eddie Munson smirk known to man. At this point, you were stronger than him still and could have easily tossed him off but it shocked you having him so close and so quickly. It took you by surprise so much so that it knocked all the giggles from you. You just laid there, in Eddie’s hold. His smirk fell and after a moment, he dipped his face to yours, and he kissed you for the second time. 
“Gross Eddie!” You shrieked when you felt his slimy tongue harshly poking past your lower lip and into your mouth. He started to get up off you but you were embarrassed, so you pushed him making him land harshly on his butt. 
“It’s called a French kiss.” Eddie stated matter of factly, face scrunched, hands rubbing over his lower back that stung from the impact of his landing. 
“It’s disgusting and you smell like cheezies.” You say pushing yourself up from the ground and wiping his spit off your mouth. 
“It’s practice.” He huffed. “And you taste like cheezies. It’s not just me.”
“I do not!” You shrieked before hauling yourself up into a standing position ready to stomp away from him. You were already embarrassed by Eddie shocking you into silence, then him telling you that you tasted like cheezies… even at 10 years old you knew that’s not what a boy would want to taste during a kiss. 
“We ate cheezies, Strat.” Eddie said, rolling his eyes at you. 
‘Strat’ was a nickname that your dad started. He was the guitar guy, and spent a lot of time teaching you and Eddie about music since you were toddlers. Once you got old enough to actually hold a guitar, he had two that he’d let you both mess around with; a Fender Stratocaster and a Fender Jaguar. The strat was a pretty baby blue colour that you adored, so naturally, you always called dibs on it, and Eddie got the red Jag. Your dad would call you both ‘Strat’ and ‘Jag’ and unfortunately the nickname stuck for you and you only— probably because you would whine and cry about the strat if Eddie tried to steal it from you. 
At the roll of Eddie's eyes, that really set you off. You turned, stomping your feet back to the trailer park.
“Hey, I like cheezies, Strat! Don’t go!” Eddie called after you. “We’re not done playing, you still have to spin!”
“I’m telling Wayne!” You screamed, running faster to the trailer once you heard Eddie’s clumsy steps behind you. 
“No! Please, don’t!” He yelled back pleadingly, making you smile to yourself revengefully. You heard his steps quicken behind you so you sprinted, making it to the door of the trailer in record speed. 
You threw open the door, startling Wayne who was sat on the couch, and just as you were about to speak you felt Eddie’s hand clamp around your mouth from behind. 
“Edward Munson. You take your hands off that girl.” Wayne warned sternly. 
“B-but-”, Eddie began before you interrupted him by elbowing him in the stomach.
“Yeah. Hands off.” You said turning to face Eddie as he held onto his stomach. You smirked at him and he sent you pleading eyes not to tell. You weren’t going to. That never was your plan, you just wanted to see him squirm as payback for him embarrassing you. 
“Ohhhhh Wayne.” You sang. Eddie’s eyes widening, his features turning increasingly pleading for you not to tell on him. 
“What in god's name happened to you, you’re covered in dirt, missy.” Wayne said ignoring you. He stood from the couch, making his way over to you before his hands were patting at your back trying to get the dirt off. Your face fell and you couldn’t think of a response. 
“She-she… we were playing a game and-” Eddie’s pleading look stopped and his gaze dropped to the floor. You could tell he was about to rat himself out. This boy couldn’t keep one secret from Wayne…
“I fell and Eddie helped me up.” You interject. Eddie’s gaze locked into yours, eyes wide before relaxing, sending you a small smile when he realized what you were doing. 
“Her mom’s gonna kill us both, boy. You better go find her some clothes so I can throw these ones in the wash.” Wayne huffed.
Eddie ran into the trailer to his room.
“Clean clothes too, boy! Don’t give her dirty stuff!” Wayne yelled when Eddie was taking too long. 
“I know Wayne.” Eddie yelled back, voice full of attitude. 
After a few moments, he emerged, with his favourite Black Sabbath shirt that your dad bought for him for his birthday last year and a pair of plaid pajama bottoms. 
“Go change, missy.” Wayne gruffed, patting you on the back. 
Back in Eddie’s room you both sat on his floor reading his comics.
“You look pretty in that shirt.” Eddie said, interrupting the silence.
“Shut up Edward. I still don’t forgive you for trying to french kiss me.” You say, cheeks turning hot in anger, prompting you to pick up the closest discarded piece of clothing from his messy floor to throw at him. 
“I'm sorry! It was just for practice.” Eddie groaned dramatically. 
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
Before you both reached puberty it was all hugs, holding hands, sharing seats, sharing beds, just being innocently close to each other. After puberty his touchness did simmer a bit. Albeit not much though. Eddie still barely knows what personal space is, but he’s not grabbing at your hand every second like he did when you were kids. 
“I don’t always touch her! Besides, it’s always been like that since we were kids, it’s normal.” Eddie says, focusing his attention on setting up.
“There’s nothing normal about the way you act around her.” Gareth says with a laugh. 
“Yeah. You love her.” Jeff teases. 
“And that’s the fucking problem. Thanks for really rubbing it in guys.” Eddie says exasperatedly, throwing his bag of dice onto the table carelessly. 
“Just ask her out.” Jeff says, patting Eddie on the back as he slouches down onto the table.
“Oh great idea! Strat, I fucking love you. Please, go out on a date with me and potentionally fuck up our lifelong friendship. Great idea guys. Thank you so much.” Eddie says sarcastically. 
During Eddie’s spiel he had picked up his bag of dice again. Finishing his scornful remark, he had thrown it down on the table, this time the dice falling out and skidding across the floor, most of them landing at your feet. 
All three boys turn at once, moving to pick up the dice before they spotted you. 
“Shit.” Gareth says, filling the silence of the room. 
You look at Eddie and he’s gone pale, his whole face null of expression. 
“I- Hey.” You stutter, clearing your throat. “I was just gonna drop these off.” You continue, stepping forward to place the container of cookies on the table. 
“Hey Strat.” Jeff says nervously, being the first to snap out of his surprise. “You gonna stay today?” He asks. 
“No, no… gotta help my mom with.. something.” You lie. You were gonna stay. You told the little twerps you’d stay today, but you really have to go now. 
“I swore you told Dustin at lunch that you’d stay?” Gareth says, eyes narrowing in on you. 
“No, I-”
“Hey guys! What’s up?” Grant greets excitedly as he enters the drama room.
“Hey Grant.” You smile before taking steps towards the door.
“Strat? You’re going?” He questions, brows furrowing at you. “Dustin said you were staying and that you had something for us?”
“No, I have to go. Bye guys.” You say, turning quickly before exiting the room.
“What’s up with her?” You hear Grant say to the guys from the hall. 
“Strat! Where you going?” Lucas calls from the other end of the hall. You turn briefly, still walking backwards towards the school exit. 
“Gotta go home! I left cookies for you guys in there.” You say, putting on your best cheery voice before turning and walking as fast as you can out of the school. 
Shit. Eddie was right. He can’t just ask you out. That would be ruining a lifelong friendship. He can’t do that. He can’t like you. You guys are best friends. He can’t do that to you. 
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
At home you flop yourself on your bed. What the fuck are you gonna do?
Nothing. 
You’re going to do nothing. 
You’re going to pretend you didn’t hear that. Eddie doesn’t like you. He doesn’t love you. He’s not ruining your friendship— you won’t let him.
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
You spend the weekend convincing yourself you made up the entire conversation you overheard. Eddie called 6 times since Friday evening, but you needed the time to erase whatever you overheard in the drama room from your memory. 
You spend Sunday evening contemplating if you should even take the ride from Eddie in the morning. He barely shows up Monday mornings so, who knows, maybe you’ll get lucky and won’t have to see him anyways.
You were wrong though. You decided to start your walk, and halfway there, you heard the familiar rumbling of his van approaching before slowing at your side. 
The van halts and you look over to see a fairly normal looking Eddie smiling at you. You try to muster a smile but you know it must look weird because he retracts into himself before motioning for you to get in. 
You stop, contemplating if it’s a good idea before you hear a car coming up the road that makes the decision for you. You quickly hop into the van, buckling yourself in as Eddie starts driving before the car behind him has time to honk. 
“Hey.” Eddie says.
“Hey.” You reply.
For a moment all that’s heard is the rumbling of the van engine. 
“Haven’t heard from you in a while.” He says cautiously.
“Yeah. Sorry. Was busy.” You lie. You spent the whole weekend in bed doing fuck all but thinking about the situation at large. 
“Busy?” Eddie asks. He knew you weren’t busy. You told him a few days that you had no plans. You were supposed to go over to his, but obviously that didn’t happen. 
“Yeah. Busy. My mom needed help with something.” You say, sticking with the same lie from Friday.
“Something?” He questions. Without looking at him, you can tell he's smiling.
“You’re just full of questions, aren’t you?” You say flatly, copying his same avoidant statement from Thursday night when he claimed to be helping Wayne with ‘something’. He huffs a breath out of his nose in what sounds like amusement, but you don’t think this is funny.
You don’t say more and neither does he for the rest of the ride. When you pull into the lot, you both get out before walking into the school. It’s mostly normal, except for the fact that it’s dead silent between the two of you. You don’t think it’s ever been this quiet between you.
When you see Robin, you use her as your escape.
“Robin!” You call. She turns to you and you wave at her. You start walking towards her and out of your periphery, you can see Eddie still trailing beside you. 
“Bye Eddie.” You say, stopping to turn toward him. You can’t look at him though, not in the eyes. You haven’t yet, apart from through the window of the van. 
“Bye Strat.” He says quietly.
You quickly push your way through the halls, leaving Eddie behind until you get to Robin.
“What was that?” She asks as soon as you’re close enough to hear her.
“What was what?” You question.
“What did you say to him, he looked like he was gonna cry?” Robin says furrowing her eyebrows at you.
“I just said bye?” You say.
“Just bye?” She says skeptically. You nod your head at her.
She grabs a book out of her locker, eyes still on you, clearly not believing you. 
“Steve said that those little twerps said something happened.” She says flatly. 
“Like what?” You ask hoping she has some drama that’ll take your mind off of all this.
“Something with you and Eddie.”
“Why’d they say that?” You roll your eyes.
“Cause something did happen?” She says, waiting for you to fill her in but you don’t. 
She stares at you, waiting for you to spill but truly, there’s nothing to spill. You let your eyes roam the hall, feeling awkward under her scrutinizing look before the slamming of her locker startles you. 
“You heard them talking didn’t you?” She asks.
“Heard who?” You ask and you physically feel Robin's annoyance rising. 
“Strat. Stop playing dumb.” She scolds.
“Robin. I’m not playing dumb.” You reply, sticking to your guns. It didn’t happen. You didn’t hear anything. Nothing happened. 
“Strat-” Robin starts, getting interrupted by the first bell. 
“Gotta go Robs! Good talk.” You say before bolting to home room.
You usually sit next to Eddie, but it’s fine. Nothing happened, right? Don’t need to be weird around him, right?
You cross the class to your seat at the back of the room, the spot next to you still empty. Little by little the class fills and by the time the second bell goes, you’re still left sitting alone at the back of the class. 
Halfway through the class, you’re still sitting alone. 
You try to focus on taking notes— especially now since you know you’re gonna have to teach this shit to Eddie who’s currently skipping, but you’re having a hard time focusing. 
When the teacher steps out of the class to get her forgotten worksheets from her office you lean forward in your chair, poking Jeff in the back. 
“Where is he?” You ask, when he turns.
“Seriously?” He laughs. You frown, not appreciating being laughed at right in your face. 
“Yeah. Seriously.” You reply sharply. 
“I think you know the answer to that.” Jeff says before turning forward again. 
Okay. Ouch. You always thought of Jeff as being the nicest out of the three older hellfire guys, but that was cold. 
You didn’t see Eddie for the rest of the day. Matter of fact, you didn’t see him until the next morning when he did the same thing. You had started walking and he drove up behind you, slowing, and you got in. The ride was in complete silence. Not a word or a glance. 
When you got to school, you parted ways immediately, without as much as a goodbye. Eddie didn’t show up to homeroom and Jeff didn’t look your way, not that you would have started a conversation with him after yesterday. 
You had seen Gareth and Grant walking in the hall and you waved. You know they both saw you but they kept walking, not reciprocating your wave, and it really fucking stung. 
That evening you walked home again. Alone.
The next morning, you walked the whole way to school. Alone. No Eddie in homeroom.
You were miserable. And to make matters worse, that morning, the drama teacher called you to his office over the intercom and proceeded to tear you a new one about how things were left in the drama room last Friday. You lied and said you weren’t feeling good and left things a bit of a mess, and that you were very sorry. By the end of the conversation, he was less so scolding you and more so giving you a pitiful look. Maybe you appeared as shitty as you felt, who knows, but you didn’t get detention so at least you got that win. He let you off with a warning instead but made sure to add that if it happens again this Friday, that’s it for your club.
Before lunch you set out to find the only hellfire members that you were certain would not give you the cold shoulder.
“Dustin! Mike!” You called, stopping them before they could enter the cafeteria. You really didn’t want to go in there, knowing Eddie would be there for sure. 
You jogged to catch up with them, both of them stopped right at the door. 
“Hey, do you mind doing me a favor?” You ask, trying to not seem like the shell of a person that you feel like. 
“Yeah? What’s up?” Mike replies. 
“Mr. Joels called me to his office and said if you guys leave the drama room like that again he’s gonna cancel hellfire permanently. Can you tell Eddie?”
“Can’t you tell him?” Mike says before Dustin hits him on the arm.
Dustin turns slightly, peering into the caf and your eyes follow, narrowing in on the person you’re always first to look for in a room. You feel whatever shards of a heart you have left dissolve when you see how miserable he looks too. 
“S-so can you tell him?” You stutter, trying to pull your attention away from Eddie. 
“Strat? Why didn’t you stay on Friday?” Dustin asks quietly.
“B-because.” You stutter again, feeling far too terrible to put up with any more interrogating and far too tired to keep up your lies.
“You heard him didn’t you?” He asks. Yeah. You heard him. You can’t lie to yourself anymore. You can’t pretend you didn’t. It’s not helping anyone. It’s not saving any friendship, because look at this. This isn’t preservation. 
All you can do is nod your head, eyes glued to your shoes.
“He likes you, Strat.” Dustin says. You shake your head, disagreeing. 
“He does.” Mike adds. You shake your head harder.
“No. He said he loves me.” You say, voice coming out croaky, lowering lip jetting out like you're about to cry. 
You bring the palms of your hands to your eyes, pushing until all you can see is black. You’re not about to cry in front of these freshies. You’re not. 
You hear the scuffing of their shoes on the floor before you feel a hand on your arm.
“Hey. It’s okay. Strat. Seriously, we can tell him. Don’t cry.” Dustin coos nervously, obviously not having the intent of making you teary eyed. 
“I’m not crying.” You huff, pulling your hands from your damp eyes. 
“No-yeah! You’re not crying. Don’t worry, we'll tell the guys.” Dustin says genuinely, his demeanor remaining soft yet incredibly nervous. Mike continues looking back into the caf, obviously looking for help from anybody. “So you’re not gonna sit with us?” He asks tentatively. 
You shake your head, not trusting yourself to speak. 
“Well, if you want to come back eventually, uh- we miss you.” He says. You laugh and both boys look taken aback. 
“Gareth and Grant pretended I didn’t exist when I saw them in the hall. Jeff laughed in my face when I asked about Eddie and then proceeded to give me the cold shoulder. They don’t miss me, trust me.” You say, exhaling deeply before standing up straighter, ready to end this conversation.
“We do miss you! Seriously.” Mike adds, looking nervous like it might not be the right thing to say. 
“Thanks guys.” You say, accepting their sentiments. “Tell Lucas I said hey and sorry for running off on him on Friday. And sorry to you guys too, I did say I was going to stay and then I didn’t.” You add before turning on your heels, heading off to the library without waiting for their reply. 
That evening, instead of moping in your room again, you decided to walk to family video. Making matters worse, your dad bought a new distortion pedal for his guitar and he’s been bugging you about getting Eddie to come over to check it out since Sunday. You're clean out of excuses and can’t handle him asking you again tonight, so getting out of the house seems like your best option. Robin usually doesn’t work Wednesday, which leaves Steve closing by himself. You’re not mad at Robin, you just can’t handle the interrogation.
Steve wouldn’t push you for answers like Robin would. He wouldn’t give you the cold shoulder like the other guys. He wouldn’t be the first person you’d hang out with, that of course would be Eddie but… yeah. Steve is a good friend though.
As soon as you walk into the video store you hear Steve calling your name from the register. 
“Hey! Long time no see!” He says happily.
“Yeah. How are you!” You ask, trying to return his chipper attitude but it comes out meek.
“Eh, living the dream.” He says, smiling. He rounds the counter, leaning against it, beside where you’re standing. “And what about you?” He asks, quirking a brow. 
“I’ve been better.” You say honestly. “Mind if I chill with you for a bit?” You ask, looking around the empty store.
“Not at all, in fact, I welcome it.” He laughs, his own eyes grazing the desolate isles.
You take a seat behind the counter with him, just talking about nothing. You can tell Steve’s waiting for you to bring something up though, he keeps giving you knowing looks whenever there’s a lull in conversation. 
When he turns away to help some customers you mentally give yourself a pep talk to talk about it. You’re not going to cry. 
“So… I assume the children and Robin filled you in?” You say, once Steve joins you again after the customers have left.
“That they did.” He says, smiling at you with a nod of his head.
“And?” You say, waiting for him to bombard you like Robin did.
“And what? What do I think?” He asks. You sit back, surprised by his response. 
“I guess.” You say shrugging.
“Well… you and Munson are close. Obviously. Totally and completely close. I can see why you’re like… y’know… freaked out or whatever. In denial, like Robin said.” Steve says, shrugging his shoulders, mirroring your action. 
You look up at Steve in total shock from his extremely validating answer and he just smiles back at you. 
“Don’t you think… Am I not.. in the wrong? I mean, it feels like everybody's mad at me… but like, I don’t know what to do?” You say quietly, stumbling through your thoughts.
“I don’t think you’re in the wrong. Feelings are complicated, there’s not really a right or a wrong.” Steve says genuinely, surprising you.
“Wise.” You laugh.
“Well, you know. I’ve had my fair share of feelings.” Steve laughs.
“How did you know when you- uh…” You trail off. Steve waits patiently for you to speak and you’re beyond thankful for it. “With Nancy, how’d you know?” You say, mustering you all of your courage. 
“I think that’s a little different because we weren’t close friends first, but… it’s hard to say. I guess I just really wanted to be with her, even if it was just hanging out. Thought about her like 24/7. All of that corny shit, like butterflies and blushing and feeling like you can’t breathe.” Steve says, grabbing a tape off the counter and fidgeting with it in his hands.
“Sorry for asking about Nancy.” You say, picking up his discomfort as soon as he starts playing with his hair, pushing it back over and over again.  
“Don’t worry about it, seriously.” He says, reaching a hand across and patting your knee in a friendly manner. 
“I guess, I’m just confused cause… I’ve never thought of Eddie that way, but… maybe I have?” You say, questioning yourself. 
“Hmm.” Steve hums, thinking to himself.
“Like, I feel like Eddie’s my person. He’s the only one that I want to hang out with all the time, and I always think about him… but the butterflies and all that other stuff you said, I don’t know. I feel like Eddie's just Eddie, he doesn’t make me nervous like that. 
“Well that could be because you’ve known him your whole life?” Steve gathers. “And I’m not trying to fuck with your head or anything, but you can’t say you don’t blush at stuff he does. I’ve seen it before.” Steve smiles at you genuinely.
“What?” You scrunch your face. You so do not blush because of Eddie. “When?”
“Halloween. Jonathon was taking all those photos and Eddie kissed you on the cheek for one of them. You seriously went bright as a tomato and there’s photo evidence.” Steve laughs.
You remember that night. You did blush, but you blamed it on the alcohol consumed… even though you only had half a beer at that point. You literally went hot all over and then you blamed it on not eating enough before drinking.
“Oh my god.” You say, mostly for yourself. Eddie had made you blush. He made you blush hard. 
“Am I right?” Steve says smugly. You reach across, hitting Steve on the shoulder but he swats you away with a laugh.
“I hate to say it Steve, but maybe you’re onto something.” You smile in disbelief.
“You people have no faith in me.” Steve says, faking hurt. 
All you can do is smile at him because things are finally starting to make a little more sense. 
“Well, want to keep going or are you tapping out of feelings?” Steve says, quirking his brow at you, making you laugh. 
“What are you? Dr. Harrington? PhD in love?” You joke, grabbing your own tape off the counter to fiddle with. 
“Oh yeah. Took a lot of heartbreak to get my PhD but hey, if it helps at least one person, maybe it was all worth it.” He laughs.
The conversation lulls for a moment but you quickly break it, deciding you’re not tapping out of your feelings, how could you when you’re so close to understanding?
“Do you think it’ll ruin our friendship? Like what if it doesn’t work out?” You spit out your worst fear, but it doesn’t even phase Steve.
“Well, from what I heard from Robs, how’s your friendship going right now?” Steve says cautiously with a softness to his voice.
“Horrible. I’m miserable. He looks miserable, but I haven’t really talked to him since last Thursday and even then he was acting weird.” You frown thinking about how Eddie looked in the cafeteria, slouched in his seat at the table, eyes all sad, not even talking to the guys— and Eddie is a talker, it’s not fucking normal for him not to be talking.
“Right. And you’re still confused about if you have feelings for him?” Steve asks genuinely, curious but not prying.
“I mean yeah. Like, I pictured Eddie in my life forever, but I never even considered it in that way or really any way at all. I never put much thought into it, ever.” You say honestly. 
“You don’t… you know.. think about him sexually.” Steve asks, grinning. You look down into your lap, shyly and you feel your cheeks heat but it’s an easy question you know the answer to.
“Truthfully? I always blamed it on him being so close to me. Like proximity planted all that shit in my head. And like… obviously I trust him and stuff so, like… if I thought about him like that, I always told myself it’s because I could trust him and that’s it.” You say, hiding in your hands. Steve grabs at your hands, before shooting you an amused smile. He’s so stupid, but this is fucking working, he’s actually making everything make sense. 
“So you’re attracted to him?” Steve says once your blush cools.
“Eddie’s fucking beautiful. I’ve never been shy to say that. Well, except when he was, like, going through puberty, that was scary.” You say widening your eyes, remembering how gangly and extra clumsy he was right after his growth spurt, and the awkward squeaky voice he had for an entire summer before his voice dropped. Steve laughs at you, clearly enjoying the terror that flashes over your face when you remember the first time you found his porn stash that somehow moved in right along with puberty. 
“And… correct me if I’m wrong but you’ve never had a boyfriend, right?” Steve says.
“You are correct.” You say sheepishly. 
“And why’s that?” He asks. You shrug, starting to feel nervous. 
“You don’t have to tell me. I’m not judging you for your choices, just might be helpful to think about?” Steve says softly, leaving it as an optional question with a way out if you so please.
“Yeah. I think, just… dunno. Whenever I’d think about going on a date, I’d always think about Eddie and that would kind of cut the idea short, if that makes sense? Not that I’d think about going on dates with him, just like, if I thought about going on a date it was more so, like… ‘well I usually hang out with Eddie so there’s no time’.” You ramble, nerves getting to you.
“Makes total sense. But you don’t think you associated Eddie with dating because…” Steve leads, leaving open space in his point for you to conclude.
“Because I want to date Eddie?” You say out loud, trying to piece together the puzzle that you’ve been recklessly throwing the pieces around to for far too long. 
“Once again, I’m not trying to make you think any particular way. Just helping you get to your own conclusions. Think of me as an impartial mediator.” Steve says, standing up from his spot, starting to pile some tapes back into a cart. You stand too, starting to help him since you’ve stolen so much of his time. 
“You really should consider getting a PhD or something, cause damn. Much to think about.” You laugh. “When did you get so wise.” You joke, pushing at his shoulder. 
“Yeah. Definitely would never qualify for a PhD, but thanks.” Steve laughs, placing the final VHS from the counter into the basket. “Now, want to do returns with me? Either that or we leave them for Robin tomorrow and when she chews me out I'll totally blame it on you so…” Steve says, tilting his face at you, raising his brows waiting for your response. 
“Already had Robin chew me out enough.” You smile, grabbing the return bin for Steve. 
You ended up staying with Steve until close. After he dropped you off at home, you spent the whole night thinking about everything you talked through with Dr. Harrington. 
Even after a night of contemplation, you kept thinking about it into the next day. You thought about it as you walked by yourself to school, sat through home room alone, ate lunch alone, walked home alone, and spent the evening alone. 
You like Eddie. 
It’s so fucking clear now. 
I mean, every time you’ve ever pictured your future? It’s always been with Eddie. Every dirty thought, every wet dream, every time you touched yourself, it’s always been about Eddie. You don’t go on dates and you’ve never cared to, because you have Eddie. Eddie is your person though and through. 
You don’t just like Eddie. You love him. 
And when that thought crosses your mind, you feel sick. Feels like someone is both tickling you and also absolutely bludgeoning you from the inside out. Is this what butterflies are? Holy fuck. 
When you think about Eddie spilling his guts to Jeff and Gareth in the drama room, you get that feeling and, god, is it horrible. But also… it makes you giddy?
You think about Eddie and suddenly you can’t wipe the stupid grin off your face. You think about his eyes, his nose, his stupid jokes, his laugh, and you get that fluttery feeling.
Deeper into the night you think about Eddie’s lips. You think about his hands, his arms, the way he always is touching you, the ways he could touch you, and you get a different feeling. Like a heat brewing in you. A desire, a neediness. Sure, you’ve thought things about Eddie, but never this purposefully. It makes you squirm in your bed until you get up and go grab water to cool yourself down.
You wake up befuddled with feelings. Like Steve was a fucking train conductor and you just got run over. 
It doesn’t help that you remembered that you kind of fucked this up already. It’s Friday. It’s been a whole week since you overheard him. 
It’s barely been 24 hours of you feeling so full of feelings. If Eddie was sure enough to admit he loved you to the guys, how long has he been feeling like this? If he’s felt anywhere near the way you feel now, he must have been drowning. And you were just letting him. And now, you’ve made him go a week, knowing that you know that he loves you, and you just went awol. 
Your mind goes to what he said in the drama room. 
“She’s killing me.” 
You’ve been killing him. It didn’t make sense at first, but now it does. It makes perfect sense and it took you until 5PM on Friday night to understand it after a long day of skipping school, laying in bed, and stress baking. And you need to stop it.

I’ve seen a few people in recent times being all like “don’t assume dnp to be anything but best friends unless they say it outright they’re a couple you’re making them uncomfortable” or whatever and I can’t help but think… switch out one of them for a girl. If this were a het pair we were looking at I bet these people wouldn’t hesitate to think differently.
Take all the 2009 tweets/dailybooths, the vday vid, the living together for years, going on vacations together, having all the traditions & jokes they have. All the times Dan goes to see Phil’s family. The fact they’ve never been around another human enough for anyone to assume they have a different partner (who they’d never have time for anyway when dnp literally make a big deal of how much time they spend together) Dan literally confirming their relationship was more than romantic (at least at some point) in his coming out video. The double dates they go on with other confirmed couples. How casually they’re talked about as a pair by other people/YouTubers. Slip ups confirming ‘the bed’ ‘the bedroom’ ‘don’t worry guys only I saw Phil’s butt in the mirror not the people on my zoom call” it being known they stayed in a place with 2 bedrooms with another couple in Australia. Posing for naked photos together. One being a literal biological uncle and the other one literally being referred to as a uncle too by the baby’s mother.
The genuine love and affection they have for each other. The way they can’t shut up about the other. Being each others biggest fans. The way they have talked hypothetically about getting a pet together (and had a bloody fish) and the main kicker…. Literally been thinking and designing a FOREVER HOME together since 2017 and now live in it. Together. 😱
If this was a girl & boy no one would think different but bc it’s 2 men people be like… we’ll actually they never said it explicitly so blah blah blah. What a weird heteronormative world some still live in
genuinely yeah. a huge part of it is just straight up homophobia, but i think the average person who doesn't really pay attention to them/is completely unfamiliar with them DOES actually look at all that and take away the idea that they're a couple at this point in time.
i think an aspect of it with people who are the most vehemently "they're just friends" is like. a lot of the time that's coming from people who did follow them at some point in time, who were involved with the fandom—and who now are acting from a place of shame and unfettered cringe over their past actions & making that everyone else's problem.
sometimes it is really funny to me when people Just Don't Get It though like... dan and phil aren't FOR them. it's not about people who don't get it and that's not the audience dan and phil are prioritizing. and i'm utterly fucking delighted for them that they've pulled off this level of ambiguity for so long even after coming out.

Drabble: Steve Harrington- Husband
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You had heated some of your girlfriends talking about at one of your weekly brunches. It was to early in the fucking morning for you to process what they were talking about. Bottomless drinks rounding the table, a great summer morning under the patio’s umbrella. “I’m telling you Sarah my boyfriend went crazy in bed, so here’s what you’ve got to do right.” You tired your hardest to not listen in but the more your thoughts dragged you away towards your boyfriend. Steve was probably just waking up according to your watch it was just nearly 9. “Y/n are you listening your Abby said, she was looking very annoyed that she was trying to explain something and you weren’t even trying to look like you were listening.
“What were you talking about Abby?” You asked annoyed that she was ragging you into the conversation. “Like I was saying you call up any of your local places, so for this example I’ll use what I did. I called up the local dinner. Said I was placing a pick up order and of course said what I wanted to order, then I made sure that my boyfriend was around. I already knew what he wanted so I just changed the wording was all.”
All the other women that brunches with us were on their toes, the edges of their seats waiting, yearning for whatever bullshit Abby was going to pull from her hat of jokes. “I said these words, ‘my husband’ would like the blah blah blah. I didn’t even get it hand up the phone before he was dragging me towards the closest s surface. Oh I’m telling you girls he fucked me so good.”
You cringed at the thought and her words. Abby wasn’t afraid of being very vocal about her sex life. That what most of these brunches turned into. Us listening to her talk about her sex life while we ate and drank at eight in the fucking morning. You gave your kisses and got into your car 30 slow minutes later, but the twenty minute drive ad me thinking.
Should you try the idea. How would Steve react? Would he pull you to the bed room, and fuck you senseless? To many thoughts and you weren’t upset with the chance of getting back into the sheets with Steve.
Nearly a whole week went by. Another brunch and this time Abby asked. The rest of girls weather any of them had tried it one their boyfriends yet. Most of the them shook their heads. You just rolled your eyes, but yet again the thought stuck with you for the tenth minute drive home.
“Hey honey you home?” You heard Steve yell out as you shut the front door. “Yeah I just got in” you said. The thought was roaming around, did you plan for it that way, maybe. He came from outside the patio door opening. A sticky sweaty and a little dirty Steve beamed out with a wide and soft smile on his face. “You have fun with the girls?” He asked you before he came to kiss you on the cheek. You only hummed.
The seed had been planted nearly two weeks ago and now it was blooming into a beautiful flower. A beautiful fucking flower. The rest of your day went by smoothly, you and Steve sat down on the couch to watch some movies during lunchtime. Then when dinner came around you couldn’t help yourself but get excited. You hadn’t planned anything for dinner and it didn’t look like Steve had take. Anything out, so from the kitchen at the drawer that was filled with takeout menus you yelled.
“Stevie what do you want from the pizza place on main?” You didn’t think it would take anything but that to get him to come running into the kitchen and let’s be honest you were right. Within a matter of seconds Steve was by your side looking over your shoulder. “Is it a chill day? We doing take out?” Steve asked even though he could already see it littered all over the countertop.
“Yup, I’m feeling pretty lazy. Those girls at brunch wore me out this morning.” You said casually. “Pizza okay baby?” You asked, side eying him. “Yeah can we do half pepperoni and half mushroom? Also some breadsticks, cause you know I love my breadsticks.” He said with a little giggle afterwards. You picked him on his cheek and you moved from the kitchen just a mere few feet away, not even out of the kitchen.
You dialed the number bringing the phone up to your ear and waiting. You answered with a cherry voice. “For delivery I need a large pizza half mushroom and pepperoni. And my husband will add some breadsticks, and two house salads.” I said. I hadn’t looked up not until Steve was wide eyed and tapping me on the shoulder. “Yeah her husband’s want some ranch with his salad!” He yelled into the receiver. I tired to hold I my giggle.
Youset the receiver down and Steve could stop from jumping up and down. “Did you call me husband??” He was yelling. “Do you think of me as your husband baby?” He asked he was getting more and more serious there was a glint behind his eye something different darker, stronger. “Hmm I think of you as my strong loving husband.” You answered softly. He walked closer to me and took me in his arms. “You’ve never been hotter then when you called me your husband.” Steve said, in baited breath. “Never hotter?” You questioned him, but my question never got answered as Steve pulled you and your lips touched rough, teeth scratched each other. Tongues were fighting and tasting each battle wound.
I didn’t know our feet could move in unison and make it up the stairs without falling. When you made it up to the top Steve was rushing to get your clothes off. “Your husbands here he’ll take good care of you tonight.” Ripping clothes off you and him. There was at trail of clothes leading to our bedroom. You guys managed to complete undress by the time we entered through the bedroom door. He pushed you down onto the fluffy mattress cover. “Look at you, all wet and good for your husband huh? All this for me?” He asked, you moaned into his soft and calculated touches.
Yeah that night was awesome in so many fucking ways. The next brunch you had with the girls you told them that you had used the husband line. You turned into the hot new topic story for the rest of brunch that day. That was so damn exciting. When you got home Steve asked you how brunch was with the girls. That morning you had to much to talk.

Small (665 word) segment of one of the various fics I’m working on being put on tumblr in hopes of receiving concrit and predictions because I’m a pantser and have somewhat lost motivation on this and am just generally curious about some feedback? How about that?
Anyway, Vanessa Afton and Ness the Waiter are siblings. That’s it. That’s the fic. Enjoy and warning for brief mention of blood :D
———————————————————
After a firm talk from their father about staying in the storage closet in the back of the pizzeria until he came back to get them, 'some of the animatronics may act odd while they're being taken care of, machinery is dangerous, don't touch anything that's made of metal and could possibly move on its own...' blah blah blah, the two twins were left alone on the storage room. 
Vanessa frowned and side-eyed Ness. "Are you happy now?" she asked, clearly sour about being stuck where they were. 
"Ecstatic!" Ness replied, not even looking at her as he examined every nook and cranny of the closet. He grabbed a broom and jabbed it into a springlock suit, looking with fascination as it snapped shut suddenly and violently. 
"NESS! Dad said not to touch," she scolded. 
"Did I touch it? I think not," he said as he leaned closer, still barely paying attention to her. "Dang... these things could kill someone. Easily. It's almost as though this was made to kill. Either a child or adult!" 
"Then you probably shouldn't have your face less than two inches away from it," was her dry reply. 
"I'm approximately three inches away. Besides, with the springlocks already activated, it's incredibly unlikely that I am in any danger at all. Even if I was, it's worth it!" Ness poked one of the springlocks with a look of glee. 
"You should still step away..." 
He glanced over, noticing the worry in her tone. He gave the suit a single, longing glance, before stepping away and glancing at the door. "I'm going to go check on something, stay here," Ness instructed. 
"The curse of idiocy has hit you hard today, I see, you're breaking every that Dad put in place for us. Where are you even going?" 
"I'm not an idiot, and I'll tell you later." 
"You're stupid and I'm going with you." 
"Absolutely not. Just because I'm breaking the rules doesn't mean you should. I'm older, therefore that makes me more responsible." Ness ignored Vanessa's scoff of disagreement. "I know exactly what I'm doing, besides, there's plenty of fun stuff in here!" 
"You know what? It's not even worth arguing with you at this point, dummy. But either you stay here, I come with you, or I'll tell Dad later." 
"You just always have to pull the 'I'll tell Dad' card, don't you?" 
She shrugged. "It works. Why wouldn't I?" 
"You're a little brat sometimes, you know that? But fine. You can come with me," he said with a resigned sigh. "Just stay behind and stay quiet." 
Vanessa nodded, looking slightly anxious but also pleased with herself as Ness pulled open the door. 
He crept through the pizzeria, all the way to the stage curtain, where he cautiously peeked through it to look out into the main room. Ness stifled a gasp as he shoved Vanessa back towards the storage closet. 
"What is it? I want to see!" she whisper-yelled. 
He shook his head, not seeming to be able to find words as his face contorted with a slight panic and he grabbed her hand, attempting to drag her away. 
"Did the endoskeletons scare you? You can be a real baby sometimes," Vanessa taunted. 
Ness shook his head again, motioning for her to hurry up. 
She scoffed in annoyance and ripped her hand free from his grasp. "I'm going to go see." 
"Don't!" he managed to whisper-yell as she peeked through the curtains. 
Ness cringed as Vanessa let out a loud scream of terror, and then he bolted back to the storage room. Perhaps he should've gone to drag his sister back with him, but she had already been caught. It would only be worse if both of them were caught, right? He never should've let her come with him. He never should've asked that they come here. It was too late now, though, Vanessa had already seen her father holding a bloody knife over a mangled body.

you know too much about alpha and omega? enlighten me. what the fuck *were* these movies.
Okay so I probably don’t know much as you think but I did watch the movies when they came out in theaters. So here is a good enough summary of the first movie.
If my memory serves right it starts out with two factions of wolves.
The Alphas who are all blonde and strong and run everything. The Omegas were the dark gray weaker faction who were all kind of losers and hippies. The are all in the same pack. It's almost like Racism... but not. Like the only thing that seems to make you an Alpha or Omega is your fur color. Like there are Alphas who have Omega siblings.
The girl wolf, Kate, is an Alpha. And the main character Humphrey is an Omega and he's in love with her which is not allowed. Alphas and Omegas aren't allowed to mate due to pack law or whatever.
All of this comes to ahead when they are supposed to go to this thing called a Midnight Howl where they basically signal to the other wolves (of the correct status) that they want to mate. Riveting stuff.
Kate is supposed to marry this Alpha from another pack that night but she gets like super embarrassed by how cringe his howl is so she runs away. And when she does that she runs into Humphrey. These two get tranquilized by two human park rangers.
So they are now put in a random National Park to repopulate the area. Disrupting the delicate wolf politics back home. So they basically have to find their way home stop Wolf War 1 and fall in love.
Blah blah blah love wins. Alpha and Omegas can fall in love.
This movie was mediocre at best and forgettable at worst. But apparently it was good enough for them to make five to six more direct to DVD sequels about their dumb kids. The most recent movie being made in 2017 which is wild since the first movie came out in 2010.
It's funny because I literally put this movie franchise on my list of things to make Video Essays on and you asked me this.

Heal me pt2
Warning?: lol Just Az about to pop a blood vessel mostly. Also baby nyx having a breakdown
Pt1
In the morning you woke up in a field.
A FIELD.
Mascara running down your face and lipstick smudged, surrounded by your friends who were also asleep on the hard ground.
“Crap”
Meanwhile back in Velaris
“She just disappeared?!” Azriel yelled
Madja was trying to keep it together but in reality she was terrified for you,her Daughter,adopted or not
Nyx was crying
“She’s gooooooooone,who I I marry nooooooooow?!” He wailed
Elain stood up and picked nyx up from the floor
“I’ll just take him outside” she said
“You lost my Y/NNNNNNNN” his tiny voice cried out as his voice disappeared down the hall as elain tried to shush him
“What If something happens to her” Madja speaks up,worried and angry
“Nothing will,we will find her,this i swear” Rhys declares
“Rhys stop trying to be a superhero and let’s go find her” Nesta sassed,walking out the door to find you
So they all went out searching for you… for 5 hours
And Azriel was going insane.
His head was running a million miles a second after 4 hours they all met up again to discuss a plan
“It’s unlikely she just got lost,she’s been missing since last night and the first 24 hours are the most important…”
Blah blah blah
It was all drowned out,Azriel needed to find you and sitting in this Damn chair talking about a plan,isn’t going to find you
Enough was enough,
He could hardly breathe
His hand hit the table in rage as he stood up,storming out of the room
“Fuck this” he yelled,his Mate needed him
“Azriel sit down-” Feyre tried calming him down
“NO! This isn’t helping find her!” He yelled
“Look,I know your worried but-” Rhys started
“You don’t know anything Rhys” he muttered,about the walk out of the room
“I know she’s your mate!” Rhys called out and Feyre cringed
“What?”
“You’ve been acting out-”
“You looked inside my head Rhys?!” Az yelled
“Your not exactly good at hiding your thoughts when it comes to her” Rhys stated
Azriel stormed out.
Sure he could argue with Rhys and Feyre about invading his privacy and announcing it to everyone else but that wouldn’t help save you
And that was his main priority. From now till forever.
The field
You sat there in the sunny field.
Bored.out of.your damn.MIND.
You were the first one to wake up,you looked over to your friends
Their not dead are they
You thought and you poked them,
They all started to slowly wake up all in as bad a state,or worse than you
And yet your best friend Keira looked at you up and down
“You look like a cat coughed your ass up”
She stated
“Says you”
You friend back
“Are we in a field?!” Your other friends called out
“Yep…”
A Damn field…
A bit short but it’s like 1:23AM where I am so I’ll post more soon
-Issy ❤️

I wanted to shake things up on this account a bit and talk about my Starfield OC for a change. She's a fairly new OC, so she's not very developed yet. Cryx is an explorer and for now her backstory is heavily inspired by Dune (in fact, part of me is considering just taking Arrakis, plunking it into the Starfield universe, and straight up making her a Fremen. I am cringe but I am free). She's my spacefarer, so ofc she becomes a captain and also undergoes the game's main plot (and also falls in love with Sarah :3).

This is, of course, my main boy. He’s a streetkid/rockerboy/netrunner who gets tangled in a web of AI conspiracies and espionage before he goes on the heist to steal the relic. Main story yada yada, tower ending blah blah blah. But, then, he discovers that Johnny’s engram is still intact and helps orchestrate a massive heist to recover Johnny’s engram and original body. They fall in love, of course, and live depressedly yet still lovingly ever after.
I don't usually get much response when I tag folks and I don't want to bother anyone, so if you see this, feel free to use this template and tag me when you do! (and if you want to be added back to a taglist, lmk in the comments).

PLEASE tell me about your Robin headcanons, I'm so curious now.
oh beans i didn't expect a response to my meme! (i mean, it has happened before but my answer was a bit undercooked) normally i'd say my headcanons are cringe and try not to talk about them but THIS TIME i am excited to indulge, mainly to have them written down on my art page :> this may end up being a long boy answer lol
(as a brief preamble, i've pretty much been building off of these robin headcanons since like, middle school or so (at least 5 years) for my smash fanfiction. while the amount of Stuff i've imagined for them might make them a bit different from their original characters, the context of awakening is what prevents me from turning them into full-on oc's)
anyway. i'm not responsible for any damages this may induce. the actual hcs will be under the cut
Both of them
so to start out, both the female and male variants are separate entities rather than like, alternate dimension counterparts. in fact, they're siblings (reeaally starting a bit out there i know). for reference, the girl (younger of the two) is named reflect (a misreading of the japanese name i grew attached to. it is what it is) while the boy is just robin. this is why i usually try drawing them with different clothes so they don't look like clones of each other lol. i like to think some aspects like the shirt and the black robe and tall brown boots are staples of the "tactician" uniform to explain any similarities.
neither have amnesia (since i just.. don't like the trope that much + i wanted to have them remember and reflect on their upbringing y'know). robin is actually a regular, normal blooded dude (which is why i don't really depict him in an evil grima-possessed form). reflect on the other hand did have grima's blood, which tipped off the grimleal in hopes to resurrect grima. however, much like the original awakening story, reflect's mama took her away out of fear of what the grimleal would do to her in pursuit of their goals. due to circumstances that i haven't fully figured out yet, robin was left behind and was raised by daddy dearest validar. reflect was raised by her mama and unaware of the grimleal or that she even had a brother/father at all.
Tumblr media
a fairly old but still good ref of their differences. i definitely took a lot of liberties with reflect obviously (i REALLLLY like robin's original design, main reason why i got so attached to the character, so i kept it pretty true to the original with some details i dont like redrawing sanded off). a lot of design elements developed over the years and came from various sources.
(strap thingies on the side were based on cipher art, stockings are based on heroes art of f!morgan, cloak is partially inspired by the grandmaster design (albeit heavily simplified), shorts... i just thought looked cool, blah blah)
ok enough rambling, time to ramble about them individually
Robin
if it wasn't clear by how i'd often draw robin with a tired/exhausted look on his face, he isn't exactly the most high-energy guy :p he's jaded and sometimes a bit of an asshole to people he doesn't know. pretty unapproachable generally. i hope the fact he was raised by validar would explain why. i imagine validar was particularly bitter about the grima vessel slipping out of his grasp and took some of that out on his remaining child.
his strict upbringing helped him become very proficient in tactics and magic as expected... but also a bit reclusive and not much of a people person. he'd travel around after being sick of validar's shit, which is how he crosses paths with chrom. chrom basically takes him in and lets him work as a tactician for the shepherds, which is an act that causes robin to become very attached and loyal to chrom. i'd say he's an established member for a few years before the events of awakening.
he's kind of unathletic (very skinny bastard) and probably has redditor posture (inspired by how slow of a runner he is in smash bros). magic is much more his "asset" ;) his sword game is mid if he's not wielding the levin sword.
he remains single to the end of awakening's campaign, but historians note he was "really good friends" with chrom (he is attracted to men lol. specifically chrom. but then chrom gets married which complicates things 🥴).
Reflect
in comparison to her male counterpart, she's much more free-spirited and bubbly. she's chill and great at making friends, a bit more accurate to the original. she was also raised to be a tactician, though she is comparatively still a novice. still, she's a quick and enthusiastic learner. i also imagine her to be kind of a risky thrill-seeker.
when she leaves her small community to explore the world, she comes across the burning village in awakening's first chapter, which is how she crosses paths with chrom. she joins his gang to further her learning as a tactician and to make some friends yeeaa!! (i haven't written as much about her as i make mrobin 😛)
she later marries chrom and becomes the mother of lucina.
I sometimes draw her with red hair tied in a black bow-- that's related to some non-fe fanfic stuff that is too convoluted and cringe for this already lengthy and cringe post. but it's an alternate look for her i think is kind of cute 😊
~~~
hopefully that's a sufficient enough answer, my brain always gets really scattered whenever i have to elaborate my robin hcs to someone else. i get a bit self-concious about them because i think i'm so far off-base with their original characters (but can't oc-ify them with some elements being based in the world/story of awakening) that i'll become like. public enemy of the greater robin community. but i know that's a bit ridiculous, so i let loose here as a means to get these many thoughts somewhere on my art page as a reference for when i draw these fellas in the future :)
there's also the separate tangent of their offspring, the morgans (or morgan being the girl, and marc being the boy) but this post is long enough as is so i'll just leave it there :,)

Hi mera Im new to writing fanfics specifically nsfw fanfics was wondering if you had any advice on how I can stop cringing or wanting to cry everytime I write smth. like how am I supposed to write this request when everytime I write "blah bleh cock and balls" I cringe so hard I retreat into my own skin.
This is a bit of a joking ask I'm sure I'll figure it out but if you have any advice on how to write this stuff or coping mechanisms that's be great lmao
Hello! I have some advice to share! ^0^
The trick to writing r18 fanfic is to be shameless about it. Embrace the horny lol. Everyone is here to have a great time and read sheet-gripping, toe-curling smut. >;) Have lots of fun writing it! Most importantly, make sure you feel comfortable doing so. Sometimes you have to hype yourself up in preparation for smut writing in order to avoid the urge to cringe.
Listening to music that sets the mood for a specific nsfw piece is a good way of allowing the writing process to flow, and if you immerse yourself in the scene and music you’ll cringe less (hopefully :D). Slowed and reverb songs are my go-to for most smut scenes. You can also find plenty of playlists online with titles like “songs to listen to when reading/writing smut” or “slowed songs I would get railed to.” These playlists usually include songs that can help with setting the mood for writing nsfw.
You can also choose to write your smut as descriptive or as vague as you want! Do whatever makes you feel comfortable and happy. If describing anatomy in great detail makes you cringe, then there are always ways to skirt around that.
There’s also the oldest trick in the book: writing as you’re experiencing a particular feeling. (Such as writing angst when you’re feeling sad.) You could try writing when you’re horny to see if that helps with anything! Or you could view any type of r18 media to get you into the mindset of smut writing/spark some inspiration.
Those are the main suggestions that come to my mind. I wish you lots of luck in your writing endeavors, anon!!!

ok I hate being a hater as well but this book made me so angry. I was SO excited, waited like 3 years, and...all we got was that?
one thing that im still mad about is that nico barely uses his powers. he raised skeletons once? twice? I like him being this kinda weird, creepy, scary and a bit socially awkward and we just didnt get any of that. this is not the nico I've related to since I first started reading the series! and yeah blah blah the stuff about him being happier and a cringe teenager but im also a cringe teenager and it still sucked.
we're told constantly how tartarus changes people, brings out the worst in them, but instead it seemed like the writers were trying to show how nice and amazing he is. and he is nice! but it shouldn't have been constantly repeated. in other books he's more morally grey and in this it seemed like they were trying to make him this perfect hero or something. Idk. never thought I would dislike a book with my favorite character as the main character, but here we are. we should've at least got one scene where he was a badass.
sorry for the rant I just don't have anyone to talk to about how disappointing this book was lmao
anon you literally said all that i think.
i liked that nico was this weird little guy whose motives were occasionally mysterious and was definitely morally grey with a decent amount of secrets and skeletons in his closet.
the “just another standard hero”-ification of nico kills my soul.
and people are like “OH SO YOU NEVER WANTED HIM TO BE HAPPY??” and… i mean…
