#ed’s so fucking adorable

[piratecaptainscaptainpirates]

Ed: babe

Stede: mm?

Ed: what are you doing

Stede: cuddling you? Obviously? Do you not like it?

Ed: no, it's - did you just bite me???

Stede:

Ed: because like that's fine. It's cool. I like that, even. But we're just snuggling right now.

Stede:

Ed: not judging. But we're not doing any sex things right now, so I'm just curious about -

Stede: you're being really cute

Ed: huh

Stede: you're being just so fucking adorable right now. Looking up at me with your big eyes! And your sweet face!

Ed:

Ed: so you bit me about it

Stede: yeah it's like - cuteness aggression is a thing, Edward.

Ed: okay but you usually see that with, like, kids holding cute baby animals too tight, right, and not - wait wait wait. Do you see me as a cute baby animal

Stede: you are pretty kittenish.

Ed: so you'd bite a kitten

Stede: you're twisting my words here and you know it

#ofmd #our flag means death #you know ed is so fucking adorable that sometimes stede bites him. you KNOW this

Guess who just found the clip of Con O'Neill talking about how Taika Waititi said that Ed's and Izzy's relationship are like Jesus' and Judas' in Jesus Christ Superstar? THIS GUYYY

#i watched the musical with my mom a few years ago #it was fucking BANGER #Judas and Jesus were both played by a queer man #and you can only imagine the drama. the tension. the energy #but anyway #it's literally SO fucking them I'm losing my mind #Jcss!judas is literally SO Izzy coded #and jcss!Jesus reminds me a lot of that calmer version of Ed #and well. Jesus dies and it's Judas' fault #the soft side of Ed is also dead in the beginning of the show #at least partially by the fault of Izzy #and they both come to regret that #but most importantly #they both adore the other so very much #at the same time as they hate him #GAHHH #ofmd #our flag means death #izzy hands #edward teach #blackbeard

gotham is literally the worst show bcuz nowhere else have i instantly loved a character and then absolutely hated them by the end but still unable to renounce my love for them

#ed.... babygirl you were EVERYTHING and then got so fucking annoying by s4 and 5 BUT I STILL LOVE YOU ‼️ #youre such a stupid lil bitch but auuughh i still adore you #(multiple times throughout s3-5 i went 'god this is literally how oswald feels. i am in his shoes this is hell') #gotham #nygmobblepot #2am ramblings.. this show Will Not tear it's meat hooks out of me!!!!

[cryptix23]

I still think Stede and Izzy should make out. Just a little. As a treat.

#ofmd #stizzy #is that their ship name? #they don't outwardly hate each other like they used to so it wouldn't be quite as messy but it would still be awkward and great #altho stede getting more assertive and izzy genuinely being like 'shit fuck stede is hot now oh no' would be fun #i adore stede and ed i just find the developing dynamic of Ed's two closest people to be fascinating #and think they should make out about it

[taikawaititisbellypudge]

Also in the teaser for next week when Ed says “let’s just avoid all near-death scenarios” is that a morning after scene?? Because it sure looked like a morning after scene to me

#ofmd s2 #ofmd spoilers #ofmd s2 spoilers #like they were totally laying in bed together right?? #and Stede’s shirtless and Ed is maybe in a robe? #tbh I was watching on my phone in my car so the picture quality was shit #fuck im so excited #adoring this season

woooo ok well time to stop looking at furthering education options for right now. It's just overwhelming. I have genuinely zero direction right now so I can't narrow down the most useful degree when I don't even know what I'd be putting it towards. 4-year is very much expected of me, so I need to find SOMETHING, but I'm really coming up empty right now. Sigh. Just kind of complaining. I know this is THE MOST NORMAL FEELING EVER for being my age, but that doesn't make it any easier.

#long tags. i'm just talkin' and spiralin'. as you do over these things. #like. ok I took cultural geography and ADORED it #I love the sociology aspect of it #but a sociology degree wouldn't be good for me because I couldn't work in that field #I love the demographic/statistical/methodological aspect of it #but that requires math which is the number one thing I CAN'T do #the other side is the more social work based things that are like. ok how and why does xyz problem form in xyz communities or locations #and how can we fix it #everything gets to me and i'd get REALLY fucking sad really quickly in a social work sort of setting #and like i've BEEN the kid with 5 social workers and it's not an environment I would ever go back into. even on the other side of it #so i can't do the logical aspect of it and i can't do the more human based aspect of it #I know an english degree would be something I could do. my aunt and grandmother have one #and it's a wide enough net that I can use it for a lot of career paths. it leaves options wide open #and there's cultural studies within that that would connect to the sociological things I like studying #minus the more math prominent aspects of it #and once I DO find a job i need to make sure it's one i can physically do with my EDS POTS MCAS bullshittery #which is a WHOLE ASS OTHER THING #but i don't need this all figured out on a random monday evening #this is without me worrying about housing and employment during school and being able to handle it all with the adhd demons #bc sometimes two courses online is too much for me bc ADHD and pots brain fog. bc tldr i never have enough oxygeon or blood in my brain #which makes thinking difficult #and just. AUGH i do not need to figure it out right now!!!!!!!!!!!!1 #this has STOPPED BEING USEFUL #only posting this bc i know other people feel the same sort of 'lost' otherwise i'd save it for my therapist #but this is tumblr so like i can just say shit here. if you think it's annoying you can leave ily but this is my house

just needed to say but its 100% ok to write characters out-of-character.

if you craft a version of a character that is completely different from the canon character its not necessarily bad writing and that fact alone doesn't make you a bad writer in any capacity.

its ok to use a preexisting character as a starting place to write your own characters even if you're not changing names or changing a lot about them. I've read and adored a bunch of fics where the characters are definitely not like they are in canon and if i saw that version of the character in the show id be so confused. but I'm decidedly not watching the show, im reading your fic and im completely immersed in your version of the character.

using characters as a vessel to make your own story based on your own experiences is not in any way inferior to writing fix-its of canon or adhering exclusively to canon characterizations. not everyone will enjoy it or read it because no tropes or ways of writing will appeal to everyone, but there will always be someone that enjoys your work and appreciates what you do.

writing is fucking difficult no matter which angle you choose to take. and theres no trope or plot or personal experience that you can't write for any character because there are no laws of writing that say you have to stick to your source material.

its still a good idea to tag if you're characters don't adhere to canon characterizations just because like any trope your reader wants to be able to know what they'll be reading beforehand (and it'll help clarify that the mischaracterization is not an accident you forgot to edit but just how you chose to write this character)

basically your writings are still good and valid even if it wouldn't happen in the show. in some cases "they wouldn't do that in the show" is a damn compliment.

#i wrote this with steddie in mind but it applies to most anything methinks #because i canon characterization for steve and fanon don't always line up but that's not a problem #i love that we like exploring different possibilities for his character from what his parents are like to his relationship with the party #and this applies to smut too it doesnt fucking matter how you wanna write it cause we havent seen them have gay sax so its not like we know #and even if we did it doesn't matter! write them however you want dammit #and especially when writing about serious stuff like if you're projecting your experience with eds or chronic pain or abuse or depression #onto a character who doesn't explicitly have that experience #sharing your experience realistically does more good for you and the readers than trying to make the character canon-compliant #and not to say everyone has to like the thongs you write. no writing will make everyone happy. even the most critical acclaimed works dont #make everyone happy (there are people who don't like arcane for crying out loud and thats the most exceptional/adored show I've ever seen) #steddie tumblr #because those are the only fic i read these days #and we have a lot of different popular tropes that aren't canon compliant and i want you guys to know you're epic and cool #fic writing #writing rambles #writing rant #writing positivity #devon thinks sometimes

i truly truly hate that i require sustenance in order to survive

#i do NOT mean this in an ed way i mean this in a 'im nd and the fact that i have to make food and clean up 3x a day makes me have a mental #breakdown at least once a week' way #it's so exhausting and for what. for what. fuck you #and dgmw i adore eating and food but why do i have to need it. just give me kibble that contains all the nutrients i require for a balanced #diet and i will cook and eat real food only if i feel like it. scientists please i can't do this anymore and i have at least another 30 #years left of this i'm over it 🙄

I had the best time of my life pitching a silly little idea to stream tonight and watching them bring it alive even more.

It’s amazing that I can just go “Hey what if Tim stalked villains instead of Batman and get adopted by Ed and Oswald.” And chat immediately goes “Yes and”

Before I know it, Tim is kind of best friends kind of enemies with Red Hood Jason, and they bicker and bully each other constantly but that’s just their fucking dynamic. They argue over whose death is more valid, Jason who actually died or Tim who only died legally. They follow each other around the city sometimes just to fucking annoy each other. Jason isn’t allowed in Oswald’s house because he’s dead and Oz doesn’t want rotting child stinking up his house.

And oh Martin from Gotham is also there, and Tim’s his big brother and it’s fucking great. Tim goes by The Quandary and works alongside Riddler when he’s younger while Martin follows Oswald’s footsteps but somewhere as they age they start to cross over. Tim gets more interested in using business to control Gotham like Oz did. Decides it’s time for a new name, and this one actually kind of gets assigned to him.

Because hey everyone said he looked like that Drake kid who disappeared years ago, whose face haunted the back of milk cartons for years before he was declared dead. They were already calling him Drake. Why not take on the title. Especially when it provides cool dragon branding that no other villain in Gotham has.

And sure Jason is a shit about it, but Tim gets to be a shit right back because Jason just stole Red Hood from Joker.

And Zsasz loves being an Uncle and giving Tim dubious advice and showing him fun ways to kill.

And it’s just a fucking messed up crime family, all because Tim is fucking unhinged and loved what Riddler and Penguin did and he stalked villains because they were ~cool~ and exciting and he’s a fucking freak.

#ravenpuff rambles #god y’all you need to stop by theBoneHouse we have the most amazing discussions #im like actually fucking losing it this idea was so simple when I started and they fucking made it beautiful #just fucking exploded #and I love my fucking unhinged Tim who we all know was one bad day from being a villain anyways #and his fucking adopted parents because Ed went ‘look hes smart and has bad parents like me!’ #and Tim met Oswald and immediately started gushing about being a huge fan and Oz went ‘Oh he can stay.’ #and like honestly isn’t it hilarious for a 13 year old to be running around Gotham leaving clues for riddles #and calling Batman stupid for being outwitted by a child lol idiot #Bruce has no idea who this sassy child is but they won’t let him adopt them and he’s very frustrated by it #god I just adore this idea #maybe I’ll write some of it one day. just for the fun

Yesterday I used "OMFD" to refer to "Our Flag Means Death" and my roommate misunderstood the acronym to mean "oh my fucking dear" and I just think that's adorable

#our flag means death #omfd #and I can imagine ed like. teaching steed how to curse and steed is trying his bestest and he just blurts out. oh my fucking dear #like I can't explain it really that's just so Black Bonnet core #and also just an adorable phrase like. #I want to pick up that phrase and pinch its cheeks #sometimes I remember that there's infinite ways to reorganize the words that make up human language #that no one's ever said before #and oh my fucking dear that's so neat #anyway #linguistics #or whatever #thanks that was my ted talk

-Therapy?-

Well, sometimes I feel like I should hold therapy sessions for myself. writing here on tumblr is kind of like that. i feel like i am on crossroads about well a lot a lot of things.

idk how writing them out is going to help but m scared. for one, my boyfriend gets angry really fast, on important things yes, but angry no doubt. nd for the most of it i find it really hot but sometimes its really scary as well. he hasn't ever gotten angry directly at me and i feel like i never want to be on the receiving end of it. but that's impossible and i know that. m scared he's going to be really aggressive hm.

Also i dont know if i talk too much or come off jobless and distracting to him. he's studying right now and i am holding back the urge to spam him with loads of love and ask him the most random stuff and shower him with feelings. he's always reciprocating and he's the best but i don't want to lose him. i think m annoying him and tiring him out. i really hope he doesn't leave me =(. sometimes i wonder if i just imagine that he loves me but he doesn't really. idk , m so not worth him.

he's obvi going through things right now, and i know these exams are more important to him than me. maybe i should give him space? and i know from a third person view id say " u need to talk to him, communication, communication, communication" . but this is different. this isn't about talking more rather the too much talking.

i hope m not exhausting him hm. my brain is just really fuzzy and fast today and i find everything exciting and jumpy. i love him so much fuck this is going to end up killing me.

also lately i have been seeing alot of these self harm posts and all these well, ed posts and i don't get what the trend is with anorexia. why the fuck do people want to be so thin? i get sh, i sh too sometimes when m low. i think ill see someone for that in the future. i genuinely need to get help because the lows and the highs sometimes get in the way of my normal day and nobody gets it. my friends and family say m just a moody young adult. sigh

well, thats it from me today, adios. i like this blog way better than my old one.

#bpd #therapy #boyfriend #i love you #m o r p h i #he's so fucking cute #he's adorable #mine #ed not ed sheeran #why do you even do it #sh #tw

queerphobes have ruined my life in an indirect way (as well as a direct one, but that one's obvious) like this is so fucking weird.

i'm sitting here trying to enjoy my queer media in peace, while my brain is going through all the comments and complains queerphobes would do, and also giving them the reply I would give... i'm so annoyed with myself right now

#i just wanna enjoy ofmd without thinking about all the comments i'm gonna have to hear from my mother #like everytime they use they/them for jim i go through an entire rehersal of what i'm going to answer when my mother says fucking crap #i can't enjoy all the absolutely ADORABLE ed/steede moments because in my head i have my mother's voice going ''why are there so many gays? #like not everyone is like That'' #and i'm getting upset before i even hear any of those comments lol #i think for my own sake i will not let us watch it as a family... just because i don't want to have a panic attack at every lunch #(like i did when we were watching hannibal and she wouldn't shut up) #but now i'm feeling anxious cause i have to justify WHY i'm retracting the suggestion of this show... #oh well either way i'm going to want to die so it's whatever #at least taika is hot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #angel talks #personal

Stede calling Ed sweetheart in Hell or High Water makes me fiavzndbajcbsgshs

I genuinely worry for my well-being if he would call him that in the series. I think my head would spontaneously combust
