RS3's story problems these past few years is a great example of "boring characters cannot carry a good plotline"

#spy's talky things #a clannie is going through egwd in timeline order atm and so i am once again stuck thinking about these things #like the plot points of egwd/zamorakian civil war/fort are all fine #(barring a few character-specific plot points that suck ass + the presentation of those plot points leaving a lot to be desired) #the characters are so ungodly boring. like i just do not give a shit about any of them #and the characters we had lost a lot of development in the ending of edwd and instead became flat #there is a sincere problem if the player characters is saying ''i couldnt have done this without you all :)'' #and i watch the scene like ''who the fuck are half these people'' #great characters can carry a dogshit story but a great story cannot carry boring characters #you know... is it any wonder lorehounds who like to write essays are still on board with the lore #while those who wrote fanfic/drew fanart have fallen off #one is fact oriented and the other is character driven #i love writing a good essay in the tags <3 #add: to everyone reblogging this and adding their own tag essays please by all means keep it up <3

I know everyone likes to joke about Shu’s restricted access to social media and how he would be a menace about Valkyrie’s online presence but I also like to imagine him having an alt just to be incredibly defensive of Ra*bits. And specifically ibara finding out about it due to a suspicious number of French death threats sent to Ra*bits haters. Like the whole account is painfully obviously his but the only posts are replies to people saying mean things about Ra*bits. The conspiracy scene for fans in the Enstars universe must be insane.

#and not just nazuna either. just all of ra*bits. for no particular reason. #shu is THE tsundere and I 100% believe he is Ra*bits stan number one #obviously his favorite is nazuna but he does his due diligence buying merch for the other three #sorry y’all I am plagued by Shu Thoughts atm and it’s making writing very difficult #he by design cannot be the focus of almost any of my historical fantasy AU but that’s the only thing I wanna write. so. #my brain is full of bees I cannot think coherently #Enstars #itsuki shu #ra*bits #yori rambles #I’m sure people have said this before in ways that make more sense but my head hurts and I’m trying to pretend I still feel things

i wanted to spend a bit of time expanding my vocabulary so here are the words i have learnt / accumulated in my reading over the pastr few weeks lmao.

ineffable ( beyond description, love this word ngl ) ambivalence ( i had heard it before but didnt know what it meant lmao. indecision, doubt. ) antiquated ( old fashioned ) subterfuge ( trickery , deceit ) punitive ( intended as punishment ) soporific ( induce drowsiness ) atavistic ( reversion to smth ancient ?? ) incendiary ( combustive ) gravitas ( seriousness of manner ) ferric ( containing iron ) wizened ( wrinkled ) diatribe - ( forceful, verbal attack ) reneging ( go back on a promise ) obsequious ( ready to help for gain in favour ) defenestration ( throw someone out of a window tf ? )( aspersions ( defamation / slander ) nomenclature ( symbols in art / science ) impunity ( exemptions / immunity )

#since i cannot work ive been doing alot of reading so it feels like im doing smth productive when i go oo a new word that might #be cool for writing at some point #i read go to the gym play games and write atm. #i do really hope to be able to atleast volunteer soon but ive been very sick for the last six months.

It’s Wednesday night. My bachelorette party is on Sunday and both Baileys sisters have just pulled out. Reason? None… Just because. Because they don’t want to play golf and wear pink and go to a winery.

Even though this has been planned for MONTHS.

#i literally cannot write atm #with this kind of stuff happening #I just want a good day to distract from the shit show #that’s going on around me

Dying to write a fic of Hemlock saving Tech’s life in super painful ways, then using his healing injuries to torture him and break him.

[do-i-love-jaal-today]

Jaal reacting to seeing SAM kill you (and revive you thanks SAM) to escape from the Archon's trap, once you're both safely back on the Tempest (I feel like there should have been a scene with the LI about this, a dramatic you-almost-died-and-I-need-to-hold-you scene)

Funny how I can both not remember a scene well, but also know exactly what to do with it.That being said, we absolutely should’ve had a stronger reaction from Jaal. Even if it was barely contained emotion.

Doing this HC styled for the moment, but feel free to request this as a mini-fic, if that’s more your speed!

In the moment, he tries so hard to be okay with it. SAM said it was the only way, so it has to be the way this happens, right...?

However, Jaal is bitterly realizing he’d much rather bare through being on Kadara for hours on end if it meant he didn’t have to be here. Emotions are choking him up, especially watching your limp body collapse on the ground. Grinding his teeth when SAM is struggling a moment with reviving you.

He should be used to this. The grief. The risk of loss; why else enter the Resistance? One must face loss and still fight on. Even understanding that one’s own life is at risk. To protect the whole...

But just this once... Can’t he be greedy? Can he not wish for your survival? To not have to see you like this...?

Being revived is a relief he can hardly put to words- further choked up at you taking breaths of air once more- but his heart still aches with a fierceness unrivaled.

...For now, he holds his tongue. Stills his arms from reaching out and holding you to the point it hurts. (He’d be sorry for it, but to know your alive and can feel takes precedent over all else, at the moment.) There is still a mission to finish. He can do that much.

(As much as it maddens him to do so. For the first time in his life, Jaal loathes putting the mission first. He almost lost his darling one, and he cannot react until the end? It’s no different from past missions he’s had with other angara; this hurts in a way unlike those, however.)

He gives you some time. Gives himself a few moments to be composed, before you inevitably seek him out... Yet, he cannot still his shaking hands. Hold back a few tears from escaping. How can he find any semblance of peace when he does not want to lose you...?

His back is to you, staring at nothing, when you enter. And when your voice sounds in greeting, he is quick to turn and pull you into a hug. It’s almost crushing, but he seems to have pulled himself together just enough to prevent any further harm.

You still have to ask him to ease up!

Jaal pours out his heart without any further nudging. He loves you so, seeing that was one of the worst moments of his life, how can he bear to know you may end up like that again...?

...And yet, he cannot stop you. He needs the kett stopped as much as you do. To protect his cherished people. For the chance that someday, maybe, on an off-chance... That his creators may return. Because he loves this little “extended, friend-family” that the Tempest is for him, now.

He loves you. And to love you is to know that your people- all those from the Milky Way- need the kett gone, too. This isn’t something to give up on, even though seeing you die in front of him will haunt his nightmares for the rest of his days.

...You both cry. The hug he pulls you into is less constricting, but that’s what your heart is probably doing right now, anyways. His head nuzzles the top of yours, his tears getting on there...but you cannot find it in you to care right now.

Jaal admits that he wishes to not be without you. However, his bunk is...terribly small. Isn’t yours bigger?

You can’t help but laugh and agree. A small cutscene of the two flopping onto your bed, cuddling close. A momentary comfort, for the fight ahead.

“Keep me with you, won’t you, darling one...?”

now im not saying we need a "smosh cast trying to get back/parent trap ian and anthony only to find out they already reconnected" fic but—

anon you're in fact so right

#im not a Huge ianthony girlie and i cannot write a multichapter fic atm (it took so much out of me to give tommy n spencer a one shot) #BUT. i'd read it. bc this is funny. #ask #asks #anonymous #ianthony #shipping

#i love him but i hate him. he is so well written but he is also so badly written. do you understand #microphone effect #like he Is the ultimate blorbo atm but i cannot excuse some of the shit they write him saying half the time!!! #get a feeling so complicated 😔 #one piece

[artnerd1123]

Ouuuuugh. Blorbos

#I cannot be coherent atm but know they are alive and well #I want to write sooo bad but work’s been busy busy busy so I’ve been tired tired tired #trying to be nice to myself and not get upset at myself for not being able to make thing. however #I miss them desperately #u understand #Nyway back to vaguely existing #arty escapades

[studentbyday]

I knew it!! Iiiiiiii knew it!! AMA cites in order of appearance which means I need to reorder my references bc for SOME REASON zotero orders them alphabetically instead!!! (And i added more to a previous section bc i felt it made it more "complete" but now i have another citation, which disrupts ALL MY SUBSEQUENT CITATIONS, why thank you for punishing me for doing my research this way, stupid citation styling!!)

😾😾😾

ok to be fair, AMA and Vancouver citations and others like it are my favorite from a USER's perspective. it's terrible to have to write using it.

#words thrown at the wall #watch me rant about my biochem paper #i am *THIS CLOSE* to be being done #but i am second guessing the entire thing!! #it's time for a reluctant break #i tried doing the other school stuff i need to do ideally by end of day today #but my stupid brain keeps circling back to the biochem paper #so i canNOT concentrate on anything else atm #ugh #a short break #it has to help #academic writing #studyblr #premedblr #bioblr #medblr #academic research

((I've been struggling from bad writer's block lately.. I'm honestly thinking of if I can't reply to any tomorrow morning, I might just drop all my drafts and start fresh. That tends to help with it...

the only person I can reply to rn is Kitten.. but whenever I go to try my other drafts, I draw up a blank...

#Ti speaks #honestly it's been writers block for a while now #but it's just gotten really bad atm #to the point I cannot even write in the morning or at night

[sgtcalhouns]

I’m trying to add some filler to this fic but my brain just wants to jump from angst to angst lol

#like I’m trying to make sure it’s clear that these chapters take place over a decent amount of time #like a few weeks/couple months #and every chapter cannot be a big emotional breakthrough bc that’s not how life works #but it sure is all my brain wants to write atm lol #and I feel like I have this problem every time #I am not that great at pacing because I just wanna get to the good stuff already
