journey to the west book one, thoughts

so this post is going to be really messy and jumbled, i will take my thoughts one chapter at a time. since this post contains all the chapters in book one imma but everything under the cut and warn ya'll that this is HELLA long.

ok so, before we get into it i just wanna let you guy's know that if the first 13 chapters seem like they have less it's because i only really started to do this on chapter 14 and had to go back through chapters 1 - 13 and look at the notes and tabes i left to gage my reaction to them. some of them have a bit more than others and some have like none at all.

that being said enjoy the absolute crack house that is my no cotext thoughts of Journey to the West volume one!

Chapter 1

monkey is born!!

and he's already being impulsive...

calling him the handsome monkey king is gonna go straight to his head

lier! you are a certified shit disturber and you know it!

ohhhhh so thats how he got the name Sun Wukong, gotcha gotcha

Chapter 2

the dao art seems real complex

love how they casually have the way to immortality written in this book lol

teaching a suicidaly impulsive monkey how to shape shift and fly wasn't a bad idea at all!

he's showing off- of course he is-

aaaaaand he got kicked out for showing off! idiot-

oh damn- thats actually sadder than i thought it would be...

HE CALLS THEM LITTLE ONES!!! CUUUTE!!!!

HOW DARE!?!?!

Chapter 3

holy hell....

he is just a menace this entire page! LAMO

GOD DAMN-

THEY WANT HIM OUT SO FUCKING BAD XDDDD

Chapter 4

going to war over wine is a very Wukong thing to do-

Chapter 6

when did Nezha get here?

shapeshifter duels man... they be confusing af

oop he got caught-

Chapter 7

they seem to have forgotten what the meaning of immortal is

oop- he's being refered to as a monster instead of a king by the narrator- thats how you know he's pissed beyond all belief...

OH HES MAD MAD

HOLY FUCK

"i have to go exorcise a demon to defend the throne." pg 193

"he ligit just wrote "sun wukong was here" oh the fucking finger lmao

man... calling the banquet that is just salt in the wound.... really it is...

Chapter 8

i already can't fucking stand him

Chapter 9

WHAT!?!?! WHY!?!!

Chapter 10

i didn't take in a sing thing that this chapter sad.... why is it even here-

Chapter 11

no thoughts head empty, why are we still on this? is there any plot relevance or???

Chapter 12

wow- ok thats kinda a really great honour to be called brother by the emperor

Chapter 13

wft....

oop divine intervention o'clock

COWARD!!!

i am going to get so sick of him so quickly....

WUKONG!?!?!?!!!!! YER BACK!!!!!! YEEEEEAHHHHHHHHH

Chapter 14

yell that your not lying makes you less believable

HE'S NAKED?!?! OFC HE IS

brutal.... nice

ight show off, keep rambling about the shit you can do.

gay? /j but fr- i get that a naked monkey coming to your door may be a cause for concern but there was no reason to disrespect him like that-

he has a son??? when???

gross man- like i get you were trapped under a mountain- but gross

brutal... nice

EXCUSE YOU WHAT?!?! NAH, NAH HE DID NOT

A FEW WORDS?!?! FAM YOU READ HIM FOR A WHOLE PARAGRAPH SHUT YOUR MOUTH

thats not teaching tripitaka- a lecture is NOT teaching

GUAINYIN IS HERE!!! oh... Guanyin is here...

oh... fuck...

why is his name just 'Pilgrim' like i get it but i also don't... idk

oh he's gonna do it out of spite now for being called a bogus immortal by the dragon king

that entire painting is just of two gay lovers putting on shoes and getting immortality for it

well, he actually is really convincing, i can see why Wukong went back after those words...

yeah i'd be taken aback too bud

.......YOU COULD FINISH THE JOURNEY RN.... but he won't, that defeats the entire porpoise of it all

THIS BITCH!!!! I WILL ACTUALLY KILL HIM

HE ONLY STOPPED CAUSE I WAS AFRIAD THE FILLET WOULD BREAK

ON GOD I WILL THROW HANDS WITH A MONK I WILL

HE STARTED UP AGAIN?!??!!? STOP!!!!

OH OH! so you stop when you see how the pain is LITTERALLY TEARING HIS BODY APART! fuck you

HE ACTUALLY TRIED TO KILL HIM!?!?!?!? oh my god- i mean.... jesus.....

Chapter 15

ah yes, lets start the chapter with Wukong hauling ass to save Tripitaka

Jesus them some powerful eyes

OH SHES PISSED AT HIM

so he's called 'third prince Jade dragon' gotcha

he's a fucking idiot

why are you being such a baby all of a sudden??

neat, he got the get out of danger free leaves now

if Rue had been in this part of the journey she would have been pretty interested in that

plot armour be like-

impressive

more divine intervention! oh my god-

Chapter 16

i don't know wether to be annoyed or what- were only a page into this chapter

goddman.... he so mad he defiled a corpse- that wasn't very buddhist of you tripitaka

Chapter 17

jesus christ man

"thunder god mouth" XDDD best way to describe it 10/10

THE THREATS

XDD the arrogance!! he called the demon "my son" before starting a lecture XDD

he gets annoyed when people call him the BanHorsePlague now, thats so fucking funny to me

he's so real for that though, i'd wanna eat in the middle of a fight too

he is actually a menace to humans goddamn

HE REDUCED THE DEMON TO A BURGER

love how their calling him 'old carcass'

there is a lot of seemingly nice senery in this chapter

how'd they know all of that just by seeing a goddamn meat patty on the side of the road???

this is gonna be a pattern isn't it-

conversations with these two go no where but damn they do be giving me L O R E

he's being so nice now lmao

wft....

ok *fine* she gets a pass but jesus

GRAPHIC

jesus wukong

HA got'em

"don't start trouble again" "i won't" LIES

Chapter 18

oooooh this is the pigsy chapter!!! i can't wait to see some ass be beat!

i- i don't think i like these people...

Wukong really just said don't judge a book by it's cover

why does he always say "your poor monk" it's grinding my gears

"tell me everything!" .... "from ancient times-"

his surmname meant hog....

i can only picture that one manga panel in jjk where Yuta is dragging Yuji along lmao

ancient toilet humour?

"where are you going darling" he says as he returns to his original form

love that wukong is described and then called "virtually a living thunder god"

"i'll follow you to the ends of the earth" (menacingly)

Chapter 19

why do they all have caves?

it is pigsy

damn- Wukong's reading him

are they really throwing celestial law at one another??

he's bragging... really?

ah yes, a summary of the first seven chapters

he really said set your house on fire and follow me

man's really stripped him of all he was worth and then dragged him by the ear... he's like a mom...

HE'S REFERED TO AS IDIOT! oh this just got so much better

lmao both of them going "wine? oh we still drink that"

Wukong admitted to being a light weight XD

pigsy, trying to say a heart felt goodbye, the other two; hurry the fuck up

"you know him and not me? what kind of fuckery is this?"

"he insulted me and the pig?!" "how?" *proceeds to tell tripitaka exactly how he and pigsy were insulted*

Chapter 20

just by the title alone i know imma start to have beef with pigsy

they still call him idiot! YES

it's pigsy getting bullied hours!!!

that- that was a very round about way of calling him a dick Wukong

annnnnd he's boasting again...

huh? flying bricks, talking pots, and dancing tiles... interesting...

this old man has balls

"fix your ugliness" DUUUUUDE

i'm about to highlight each and every time Pigsy is refered to as Idiot! shits too funny!

ahhhhh pigsy's first kill steal!

OH SHIT NVM

dude just ripped off his own skin! what a power move!

jesus-

and we get to the first time tripitaka is truely captured!

"for you culinary pleasure" XDDDD why is that so funny?

this guy's actually quite smart for that

damn...

good wisdom wukong

i love how wukong is so often describes as "the one with the thunder god mouth and hairy face"

he's got a good sense to be this scared of him

monkey-monk?? (why is that so funny to me???)

he just told wukong he was a 'buy one get one free sale'!! AND HE'S THE FREE BIT XDDDDDD

KILL STEAL!!! +1 for butality, pigsy's score is now -99 points!

Wukong actually let him have credit for the kill? goddamn- is that character growth i see?

Chapter 21

no he does not!

Aqua man?????

Really?? *face palms*

why does he insist on calling himself grandpa?

is he about to disapline him like a grandpa too??

Coward

the divine wind of Samādhi? like the Samādhi fire? NEAT!!!

more divine intervention i see

the trend of calling pigsy an idiot continues and i am thriving in this enviornment

can he be any less annoying?

*crybaby beings to play on loop in my head*

idiot

it was the fucking gold star of venus

very humble wukong

lawless ape! XDDD

love that offending the great sage is quite possibly a crime punishable by death now

Chapter 22

its sandy time!!!

wouldn't that be qualifies as an inland sea?!

i don't know how to feel about that entire passage

cloud surfing lessons

he called Wukong his assistant- oh boy if he had heard that...

he can be there in half an hour?! wild...

sandy is aquired

Chapter 23

still love that his nickname is practically idiot

please- stop refering to your staff as a rod- i can't take reading "you'll get a ___ from this Huge Rod!" anymore T-T

you fucking idiots- your banter has now left the master stranded and he's gonna get captured by demons!

serves you right

Wu kong being so shocked he actually acted poliet?

Unreal and nonexisting- well those are some red falgs if i've ever seen em in this book

SHIT JUST GOT SO MUCH FUNNIER OMFG

she just keeps going!? dude- please- how can someone have so much

omg- this is all a test of character isn't it...

tripitaka; wukong you stay! Wukong; the fuck you mean me!? make pigsy stay

the entier latter half of this page pisses me off. fuck you pigsy

OH EW! SEVEAR ICK- GROSS

I FUCKING HATE YOU YOU GREEDY WHORE

I KNEW IT WAS A TEST OF CHARACTER!!!!!! I WAS RIGHT!!!!

Chapter 24

serves him fucking right

i agree with Wukong, leave the pig and go

holy hell they haven't even covered one tenth of the distance yet?

this is the chapter that that one monkey king animated movie was about.

to cowardly to do it himself so he's gotta wait for Wukong lmao

thus begins an entire two-ish pages of Wukong stealing fruit again

Wukong makes me nevious frfr

if it were so embarissing maybe you shouldn't have done it in the first place

Chapter 25

wukong.... buddy.... no.....

good plan boy's

dude can pick (break?) locks.... good to know

why do you fight first and ask questions later....

he escaped thrice, got catpured thrice, kept playing tricks..... dude just wouldn't fucking stop....

ok i saw that post earlier about the bootlicking and now i am hit with the idea of Obito being like "ugh bakashi you're such a bootlicker why don't you lick MY boots for a change" and then there's a pause as both Obito and Kakashi come to the abrupt realization that they may, perhaps, be more into that then they expected.

and then they have sex in their gay little dimension idk

oh boy anon do i have just the thing for you! although it's not in kamui, i think the essence of the rest is there.

1.2k, snip of a unpublished fic

---

Obito’s face was veiled as they left the Godaime’s office. Kakashi glanced over at his mission partner, found that his eyes were sparking dangerously, and chose to keep quiet. Normally they would celebrate a successful mission by going out to grab drinks or dinner at one of the shitty dive bars in the southern district, where there was little chance of running into other Uchiha, but Obito stomped silently the whole way back to their apartment.

There were still no words by the time they passed through the doorway and reactivated the traps in the perimeter seals. Kakashi tried to break the silence.

“Obito,” he started out, placatingly, but Obito’s face twisted up all at once into a snarl, breaking out of his sullen rage into something darker.

“You think you can apologize? What about Tiger? Crane? Rabbit? You think that’s why we left Mongoose’s division? So you could suck up to Tsunade and wag your tail to her council, all for some fucking reputation?”

“Obito-”

“You think your father was that kind of bootlicker? Don’t be a coward, Kakashi,” Obito spat. “It’s not in your blood.”

Kakashi closed his eyes, letting the guilt of that accusation wash over him smoothly. “Fine,” he said, exhausted. “I know that wasn’t the right call. What can I do, to apologize?”

Obito dropped onto the couch and glared into the distance. “Nothing,” he said. “Unless you’re willing to get on your knees and b-”

Kakashi’s excuse, which was flimsy in retrospect, was that he was tired. He was emotionally exhausted from the mission and then the immediate verbal flaying they’d received from the Hokage, from the physical exhaustion of pushing your body too far and too fast, and all of it had piled up until his defenses were low and he’d entered a place where he normally had to make no decisions: his home. But in the end the truth was there-- that he’d dropped onto his knees faster than Obito could complete his sentence.

They both froze.

The moment stretched– Obito’s rage had completely disappeared and been replaced with a comically shocked expression. “Wha-”

Kakashi scrambled to get up, back onto his feet, but the damage had been done. He made the mistake of looking at Obito and something flared between them; a low, heated ache in the pit of his belly. He looked away.

Obito’s voice had dropped half an octave. “What was that?” he half-whispered. “Did you-”

"It was nothing," Kakashi snapped. "Forget it, Obito. It's none of your business."

Obito shook his head, his eyes bright with thought. Kakashi lamented; of all the times for Obito to suddenly find his emotional self control and common sense, this was not the ideal moment.

“You liked that,” Obito said slowly.

"Maa, Obito, don't you think you're reaching pretty far for one random moment?"

"Don't you trust me? Tell me right now if you don't, and I'll stop everything, I won't bother you again."

Kakashi was silent. For some reason the words weren't coming out of his mouth. Because he did trust Obito, and that was the crux of the problem.

There was a new glint in Obito's eyes. He gestured with his hands. "Come here."

Kakashi's awful, traitorous feet stepped forward until he was standing just before the spread of Obito's thighs. He stood there doing his best imitation of a wooden board, his hands clenched into fists at his sides.

Obito looked at him, cocking his head with the light of comprehension. "You like this," he said slowly. "You like following orders."

Kakashi’s jaw clenched, his teeth tightening down like a vise and clamping down on his tongue so that he wouldn't blurt down something absurdly embarrassing.

Obito brought a gloved hand up.

"Take it off for me."

He was going to leave the room. It was clear in his head: he would open his mouth and say No thank you Obito, he would put his hand on that brass doorknob and shut the door behind him and they would never speak of it again. In eight years Obito would mention it in one of the ANBU post-mission bar crawls, and Kakashi would laugh it off and pretend that it had never happened at all. The future was bright and clear, tantalizingly close in reach.

Kakashi blinked, and found his hands already sliding the first glove off Obito's rough hand. He let it drop to the floor and swallowed hard, staring at the swirling pattern of wood grain so he wouldn't have to look at Obito's face, and live in ignorant bliss (agony?) of not knowing his expression.

"Good." The timbre of Obito's voice was rich with satisfaction, and something deep inside him shivered.

Once when Kakashi was young, his father had allowed him to pick which persimmons to take home at the market, but when he’d taken a bite of his carefully selected fruit, his mouth had dried out so quickly he thought he’d been poisoned. That sense-memory was back in full force now, and it nearly made him dizzy; the harsh, acrid taste of dryness, and the potent sensation of surprise. Not that Obito’s voice was toxic.

"And the other one too."

Kakashi considered that again, as his tongue flitted around in his mouth, searching desperately for moisture and finding none. He consulted old school memories and faded recollections of textbooks that he’d read over three decades prior; had one of the Shiranuis married into the Uchiha Clan in some long gone past? Obito’s voice must have had some kind of poison, because that was the only explanation for the physical effect it had on him.

Somehow Kakashi’s hands were moving without the input of his brain, and they carefully slid the leather off Obito's other hand and let that glove follow its partner. There was a little clink as the metal guards of the pair met on the ground.

Any moment now. Kakashi would turn around. He would leave the room, go for a drink at The Heron and flirt with 76 year-old bartender Makoto, or read the newest Icha Icha while watching Makoto flirt with the equally long-in-the-tooth barmaid.

"Sit, Kakashi."

He dropped down faster than a pre-genin at an endurance evaluation, but managed to at least prevent himself the humiliation of falling into seiza. He breathed slowly, once in, once out, and then deliberately let the curve of his spine slouch as he adopted a posture designed to look careless and lazy, his legs crossed beneath him.

"It's a lot of fanfare for some very tame roleplay," Kakashi drawled, pretending that he wasn't sitting at Obito's feet on his order. "Are you having fun with your game of pretend? Don’t tell me you read some of Rin's erotica and got excited over–”

Obito's bare hand dropped onto his hair, raking through the strands and gently scratching his scalp.

Kakashi bit down on his lip so hard he drew blood. The sharp burst of salt and iron was the slimmest rope tethering him to reality: the rest of him was floating adrift on a pleasant haze of obedience and reward, the simplicity of not having to decide what to do.

🪡Hello, Host World!🪡

--------------------------------------

The names fucking, Scout! And Im one of the many slaved puppets of Asshole Mortimer's Handeeshits!

(always wanted to say that, ever since I learned swears)

*Ehem*

So basically, I found this cell phone while grave robbing a former Host(dont ask why) and made this blog for me and my sibs!

(I also managed to hide the device from Riley...you guys better not tattle on me, I know she has a blog here aswell!)

Took me awhile to get the hang of using my Host's hand so that I can type all of this shit out, because apparently my stupid felt hands are too fucking soft for it-

Stuff about me and my siblings:

• Scout Prime(Just call me Scout):

- Gender is as fluid as a cat: Genderfluid(Any pronouns)

- Ace as fuck, leaning towards bi

- The amazing leader of the group(theres a prime for a reason!)

• Space Buns(Bonnie)

- Pangender(She/They/Xe)

- Loser Lesbain(she has a crush on Riley's lead assistent and is way too much of a coward to confess)

- Space nerd(Its their #1 fixation)

- The one Riley tolerates the most(mostly because xer sort of a teacher's pet)

• British Invasion(Bri)

- Genderqueer(They/Them)

- Gay but said "Eh.." to romance(Aro Achillean)(honestly same, the "Eh" to romance part I mean)

- Conspiracy Theorist/Has an Alien obsession(they somehow brought a giant ass corckboard to our hide out, probably stole it from somewhere)

- Somehow became british after drinking some of Mortimer's Tea and is now addicted to it(lets hope they dont try alcohol next)

• Red Hair(Radley)

- Stole two genders: Bigender(Xe/He/She)

- Unlabeled sexuality(doesnt really care)

- Is determined to complete any dare(xe literally almost died once because of them)

- Partner in crime(we're basically the most chaotic, probably the reason why Riley hates us the most)

• Royal Purple(Violet)

- Half girl half Bitch: Demigirl(She/They)

- Demisexual Bi Sapphic

- Big Diva(aswell as a big bossy pants)

- Fashion fanatic(still wondering how tf she managed to make 7 outifts in one day)

Oh! Almost forgot, Id like to set down a few things before you all start asking stuff:

Firstly, me and my siblings are MINORS!!! So dont you fucking think about doing anything innapropriate here, nor anything problematic/srs(I already made my first mistake by going through the search history)

Second, we swear alot(if it wasnt that obvious/nm). So if your uncomfortable with that, you are free to leave/nm/lh

Third, pls be respectful, by that I mean no hate speech or Harrassment. Although, I do like the idea of my sibs getting trolled(as long as it doesnt go too far of course)

Other than all of that, feel free to ask us some questions about our fucked up life!

--------------------------------------

[Ask are Open]

(P.S. from the mods; this is Pre-game Scout, meaning the event of the first game hasnt happened...yet)

“Like a couple months later”

October 15th: the callous daoboys - Die On Mars

Slimebergrind. I listened to this band under the pretense of it being “mathy emo music” and what I got was two albums (and some EPs i haven’t heard) of perfect……. fuck what do i even call this? what am i doing?? i’m 3 bong rips deep and i’m trying to describe the daoboys? that is a terrible idea. Anyway, it’s heavy, it’s sassy, it’s fast, the noisy bits as well as the more melodic bits weave into the never ending restless tempo/time switches that set up quite the barrier for entry for people who wanna mosh to this, let me be clear, it can be done you just have to be a bit of a gay nerd (and if you’re reading this chances are you are). This album is ADHD at it’s truest and has such a distinct sound that completely does away with the masculine energy that emanates off most “core” bands, The Callous Doughboys carry a fun, lighthearted welcoming energy without letting go of that “fuck you” metal attitude, conspiracy theorists and catholic extremists are on the beating end of Maddie’s guitar, lucky for them these guys scream hard enough you can just pretend you can’t understand you cowards.

This album is scathing, from the very opening moments of Flip Flops at a Funeral the daoboys are going strong with vaguely guitar made noises, pure queer anger, and plenty of “theatre kid shit” this song is a perfect mission statement for the genrebending borderline tempoless yet infectiously groovy album we have ahead of us. The Callous Doughboys have endless riffage for every situation, and Dogfight Over the Trenches is a great demonstration of their composing ability, fuck it, this might be one of their best songs, it’s full of those crazy shots that pepper their signature style, noisy bits, breakdowns, and pained vocals that make your aunt say “turn that screamo shit off”. It’s a well pondered question among yuppies how heavy music could possibly be catchy to some people, and through my journey with the daoboys i’ve discovered that a big part of it is familiarity, this sound can be really hard to break into from a purely hardcore background (like i did) but once you feel like you “get it” i implore you to listen to Fake Dinosaur Bones one more time and shout it at the rooftops cuz it is by far one of the catchiest metal songs i’ve heard. After a lovely interlude we jump right back into another of my favourites (they’re all my favourite) The Absolute Barnstormer, a brutal grind jam that still reeks of that theatre kid shit, i think that if you had to get a strictly metal fan into this (for some reason idk) this would be the song to do it, the riffs in this song are so white belt, the restaurant scene is so funny, the shots are still in full fucking swing, and that guitar feedback hits my ears soooooo nicely, S Tier track. Chances are good if you’ve heard of these guys you know Blackberry DeLorean, and that’s for good reason, this song has some of my favourite melodies and riffs and beats, the whole thing takes me back to middle school in the best way possible, if you’re gonna listen to any daoboys this is the song, and then listen to the rest of them or else you won’t be hot n sexy🤷‍♀️. Pure Schlock is a song that you can tell they had fun writing, it’s so fun to break shit to, the dissonant guitar leads next to those fucking shots before a quick pre chorus and one of the best choruses on the whole album, both vocalists take this track as a chance to show off and they leave me in awe, the whole band is going so hard on this song (forgot to have breakfast with my spiro i’m dissociating a little) and every breakdown has my downstairs neighbours plotting to have me evicted if i don’t stop jumping around. this is a pretty long album and i’m running out of interesting things to say, i love every song on this so damn much, but we’re gonna skip right ahead to the song of the hour, the bisexual menace, the complete and utter moshfest that is Die On Mars (Sunspot) the way the whole rhythm section moves together despite the wildly inconsistent tempo, i’d love to figure out how the guitar makes those noises, or even how the bass developed that much swagger, but more than anything i just want everyone to shut up and listen to this fucking chorus, it’s so heavy, so catchy, so daoboys, you don’t get this sound anywhere else, so in the end when they start singing i just close my eyes and let the frantic, amazing guitars wash me away.

#mathcore #metalcore #the callous daoboys #georgia #gay fuckin bisexual non binary band #screamo #i fucking love them

About my OCs game

thank youuu @hamburgerslippers for tagging me, as always I have a blast making u look at my guys and i know there's at least one other tag game u sent me that i havent done and yes i live in constant shame

Favorite OC: Julian Dae

I'd love to lie and say I don't have favorites but I do and it's. Well. Not my fault he's bitchy and damaged and disconnected and isolated and angry and (<- is my fault)

Newest OC: Diana Rojas?

I might change her last name BUT I have finally started to figure her out. As far as 'this character has probably existed' she's older than a few others like Sumaya or a couple unnamed ones, but she's actually got plotline so she counts more than them. Also she actually has a design (tho it's subject to change).

Oldest OC: Julian Dae

Of fucking course. He's changed a lot obvi but I first made him in like... 2018. He's old as fuck. Functionally he's more like 2 or 3 years old tho because that's when I solidified his actual story to (roughly) what it is now.

Meanest OC: ...Julian Dae

I'm sensing a theme. Listen I'm not just joking when I say he's a bitch he is kind of an asshole. People don't like him for good reason. He doesn't exactly work and play well with others. He's soooooo defensive that it circles around to being offensive. He

Softest OC: Milo Montalvo!

He's done literally nothing wrong in his whole life but also if you say that you're missing the point and u dont get him like i do <3. Listen. He cares about people and he's easy to be around BUT he makes mistakes and sometimes in the effort of not hurting anybody he ends up doing more damage. But mostly he's sweet. My perfect fucked up guy.

Most standoffish/aloof OC: Brooke Ulriche

She's soooooo disaffected she doesn't see the point of getting close to people anymore so she just doesn't. She moves through people's lives with little thought to them which means she doesnt really care about any of them?? Just in a personable manner?? But also she DOES care but only in the sense of how she is useful to them. She's really normal guys.

Dumbest OC: .... ...Julian Dae

I hesitate to call him dumb but compared to the others... yeah. He's too impulsive for his own good and he doesn't really think about consequences. He's never had a plan in his life. Everybody else is either really methodical (Liliana, Brooke, Reiji) or emotionally intelligent and good at problem solving (Milo, Diana) and Julian just... isn't. He's fuckin stupid but also look out? I guess?

Smartest OC: Liliana Hart!

And that's why they go so well together! Lmao she's not perfect (FAR fucking from it) but she actually IS really good with a plan and is patient and brutal and you know that post that's like "ruthless just means seeing the clear line between here and there"? that's Liliana. She's detail-oriented and careful and while going off-book isn't exactly her strong suit she CAN make it work because she has good instincts. She's good at considering all the options and picking the best one.

Horniest OC: ..............Diana

LISTENNNNNNNNNN I. She. Ok???? If she wasn't so gay like 90% of her problems would go away but I. you. let her live

OC I'd bang: For legal purposes I cannot answer this

yeah i'm taking the coward's road with this one. u dont need to worry about it ASDFGHJKLKJHGFD

OC I'd be besties with IRL: Milo...

I said he's easy to get along with and I'm difficult so like..... Also Liliana tho because she's outgoing and trans and that's all it takes. Julian would just wanna fight and the other three are too quiet so we wouldn't speak to each other because you know I dont start conversations.

also i'm realizing now Reiji gets NOTHING. fuck him i guess (<- i lpve him)

#ocs #tag game #also im realizing now i don't have anyone to tag. i dont talk to people #if anyone sees this and wants to do it say i tagged u. i will literally edit the post to have tagged u if u want #tell me about ur original guys #also making me realize i dont draw liliana much. i love herrrrr shes just hard to draw for some reason. i dont know what her FACE looks lik #not YET. i will

Horror Movies I just watched: June 2023

I only have two movies this time, though one’s an anthology.

Knife+Heart I chose this one for pride month. Good choice too, because I can confirm this easily the gayest slasher/giallo movie I’ve ever seen, for content alone. Seriously, all the sexual subtext in all other slasher movies ever made is just TEXT here. I’m not sure I can ever go back. Every film from here on in I’m going to think the filmmakers are cowards for not letting at least one victim die by dildo.

But, in all seriousness, I think I got what they were going for in the killer’s motive. Not just that he found their previous film triggering, but it would’ve been easy to have the killer be just a bigot, some closeted self-hating gay, or (god help us) someone taking revenge because gay people killed his parents or something stupid like that.

What we have is a person scarred and traumatized in a situation similar and common to sadly, a large number of people, especially in the LGBTQIA+ demographic. What’s twisted is that it is so common that a lot of people this has happened too or came close to it happening too all react and process it in very different ways. (I think it’s common in the movie, not that they heard about this incident already. That’s the theory I took away from this) You would find people who think back on their parent having a violent reaction to them being secretly gay and can make peace with it through a light porn film. Not because they’re a sociopath or weak-willed. But because anything more connected to harsh reality (and lacking any sexual release or expression) might make them run from it and impede development.

But the characters in the film were so comfortable in that shared viewpoint bubble of this specific trauma they forgot there could be someone with a very justifiable alternative outlook on it, so they’ve become another tormentor to him. So now, one member of the community attacks other in it because he was feeling excluded, and rather impersonally to boot. Which makes the circumstances that finally did get him killed the final tragic icing on the sad cake. Other gay men lashing out on him in self defense, just as he thought he was doing throughout the story.

This was probably the smartest and most genuinely tragic reveal for a motivation they could have gone with. So kudos for that.

Also, makes this a weirdly good double feature with Across the Spiderverse, of all things. I know that sound crazy, but they’re both movies about an individual being excluded to from a group of people he’s connected with because of strife over what’s the appropriate amount of trauma for them. Just a shower thought.

Holidays (2016) I was waiting for the best day to watch this, so I chose Father’s Day both because I was having trouble coming up with one for that day otherwise and I head that segment was one of the better ones. Was it? Well...

Valentine’s Day Carrie if it was less Stephen King and more Tales from the Crypt. This one just left me with questions though. Were they picking on her for the same reasons as with Carrie White, hence “Maxi Pad”? The hell’s her home life like where she can just go from bullied to murdering for love like that? Does she even know if the bully’s heart is compatible with her coach? I feel like this is a reason why Carrie wasn’t a short story or why most revenge stories of this length are a touch less complicated then this. This just felt messy to me.

St. Patrick’s Day Well, if you had to do a horror movie St Patty’s Day themed without the obvious choice, killer leprechaun, something that calls back to the roots of the holiday make sense. Not entirely sure what this woman did to deserve this, but hey, fae folk follow their own rules like that. I kinda liked that she was either in denial or past caring that her baby is a snake monster, she just wants a child damnit. She certainly seemed past caring at the end. Maybe if the first half was as exaggerated as the end, I would’ve liked it more.

Easter Another that left me with questions, though I think that’s the idea. This bunny monster is such a weird gross sacrilegious thing, I’m surprised that wasn’t more of an uproar about it. Though I guess it’s point is that it’s more supposedly child-friendly side makes Easter one of the weirdest holidays we got. I’m never going get Easter Jesus Bunny Monster’s Oh face from his side scar being fingered out of my head for a while.

Mother’s Day This was where I started to fall asleep. Good thing this is the type of movie you can watch in chunks. This one has a lot in common with the St. Patty’s day one, and none of that is in it’s favor. Woman is hyper fertile so she goes to folk hippie wellness compound who try to heal her and instead make her give birth to an abomination. And all I’m left thinking is; Why? I thought shortness was about getting to the point, not cutting the point out.

Father’s Day This has probably the best build up of any of these, even if the ending is weak. I liked the premise of the main character’s dad leaving her a record detailing step by step where she can find him again. Understandable motive for our lead combined with tension that builds literally step by step. I find it a bit weird where he took her the exact same route when she was little and he just focusing on recording the whole time like a jerk instead of just focusing on her daughter. I guess the idea was that her in the present would find all this familiar so it’s be easier to soldier on. Though wouldn’t it make more sense he just sent her a message saying “remember when I took you to X?” and we actually have the same journey being played twice? One what we actually saw and the other’s a flashback showing the two of them going down this, comparing and contrasting the two settings? And at the end? Aliens? This open-endedness is getting on my nerves. I got that deadbeat dads aren’t worth it, I just wanted to know why this one wasn’t precisely. It feels like a half baked metaphor.

Halloween This was the most forced of the theming. It’s one of those times I have more issues with the style then the substance. Yeah yeah, three women plotting against a man is like witches. But I would’ve preferred either actual supernatural witching stuff or hey, given the set up, go all in on ripping off Saw. Weird how the a-hole customer that started this got off easy, but hey, f the pimp too. Maybe the way I’d do it is to cut the beginning, start with him waking up with the dildo in his ass, and the extra time is spent them disposing the body. And hey, given the holiday, make it so it’s in one of those decoration displays. I don’t know why the segment attributed to the actual spooky holiday is the least spooky of them, but I guess they were going for subverting expectations.

Christmas So this is as close to us getting Seth Green in a Black Mirror episode. Still, it’s a good little character study in to what the people closest to us would do if they could get away with it, even if the technology is quite fantastical. I even liked the ambiguity of the ending, even it personally I would’ve twisted the knife more and shown her walk in acting possibly normal and him being skittish. But maybe I’m just stretching now.

New Year’s Another one where my only problem is that it ended too soon. Incel serial killer finally meeting his end, getting a taste of his own medicine by his female counterpart. That’s a fun twist but the structure is weird to me. We see him kill, go on another date, prepare to kill again, see that she’s a killer, then they fight until he loses and dies. Not bad, but it would’ve hit me more where the twist came later and she surprised him without a fight. Or they realized they’re very similar, hook up for real, but now literally slay together? Or hell, keep the fight, but go full on looney tunes cartoon about it tone wise so the gun having no bullet hits more?

I just found that the style of filmmaking of these segments don’t work for me. Sure, I could cut them slack because it was clear they didn’t have a lot of money. But I didn’t even believe most of them used it well. It feels like a lot of them don’t know what to keep in and what to leave out. And the pacing in each is way off in different ways. They’re short so I’m not stuck with them long, but but I feel a few minutes fleshing out the things I mentioned in each of them could’ve made them stronger. This was rough.

My obligation to my kin whom I will never meet

On Friday nights, I go to a movie night with people I know from my community theatre. It's usually me, two cishet fellows and one cis gay man, whom is very old fashioned. Sometimes we have people who come and watch with us for a night but not the next. We usually watch 2 movies, have fun and call it a night.

But for the last 2 nights, one of the guys, who I'll be referring to as W, has been making some transphobic comments. It's nothing particularly unique, just the stock standard sneer about pronouns or something equally benign, or making fun of an enby friend of mine.

With the last visit, I did a bit of pushback, but the night ended with a long-winded conversation where I have to try and debunk his talking points but it was no use. The other two, while not as involved as W, were agreeing with him mostly.

Now I am sitting here and facing a bit of a moral dilemma. After I got home I spent a lot of time thinking about what W said, debunking his points and trying to come up with new points or arguments and I realized something. This would be the second night where I've come back from this feeling like crap, crestfallen to see him and others like him being idiots for no discernable reason.

On the other hand, I come off as straight quite easily, I hate coming off as grating or annoying so a lot of the time I tone myself down to be less of a hassle. I'm probably a lot of people's only exposure to non-gay people and that, I think, gives me a lot of leverage to change their minds when they are acting queerphobic.

I'm empathetic, possibly to the point of a flaw, but I try to listen and understand regardless of what you're saying. I also try to make them empathize and understand others who aren't cis or straight. But what if it's not working?

Because of my position of being unobtrusive and otherwise affable, I think I have an obligation, a duty, to speak for my trans siblings everywhere to try and stop people from spreading shit against them.

But what should I be willing to lose of myself to help them?

This is sort of the crux of what my whole post is about. I am in a position of privilege, leverage, a position to make a change. And I don't know if I'm doing enough. Have I actually changed someone's mind? Have I actually made them self-examine, or are they just tiptoeing around me because I've made them think I'm going to go off at them because I care about this so deeply?

Every time, I hear those jokes, those insults, a small part of me is hurt. A needle against my skin, sending me pain which I cannot remove. I try and speak them out of it but that just opens up the path for more needles. It just keeps coming and it makes me want to retreat... like a coward.

But then I think about my queer friends and how they must feel about it. They don't have the choice of retreat, they can't just not engage, for them it's either endurance or death. and then I think further on and I think about all the other trans people who have been hurt, are hurting, are dying and I once again feel like a coward for wincing at a candle when they are in a blaze.

I can try and keep putting myself in there, but I don't know how long I can keep it up. I want to put me, myself, my mind and body on the line but bits of me keep falling away, like necrotic carrion and I'm starting to get scared of what's going to be left behind when I am done.

So I'm facing this dilemma, of seeing how everyone else is hurting and knowing I can do so much work to help them all, maybe work that would get through better than if they did it, but possibly becoming less and less as time goes on. Or I leave, reaping the benefits of all of my queer forbearers who worked damn hard to put me in this place where I can live happily like this and spitting in their faces and in my friends faces.

Excuse the vent, but I had to put it somewhere before I explode

Just got back from the new Thor movie. It was... Good. Coming from Taika I thought it would've been a little bit better wrapped up?

Like the first 2/3s of the movie is super cool, funny, just really light and fun to watch with dips of heavy stuff that made sense (like Jane and the origin of Gorr). The cinematography was AMAZING as well. And there were the goats lol

Then when we get more interaction between Thor and the other gods or Thor and Gorr it just kinda... Fell apart? Ok hear me out so I loved when Thor called Zeus a coward and all. Brilliant, but then they just leave? I was expecting a speech to try to rile up the other gods to help. But cool ok then.

Then with Gorr I just feel like there were so many things that could have made the end more meaningful? Small bits of dialogue that would've significantly changed the impact.

Example:

Asking if Gorr intends to kill himself in the end too, since from the moment he grabbed that sword he became somewhat of one as well. Then seeing him be deeply conflicted by the thought.

Thor trying to prove to him that he's one of the good ones. Or even just Gorr asking him why he gave the kids power and Thor replying something about them being HIS people that he will do anything in his power to keep safe.

The wish part was also nonsensical, like it's cute that Thor has a daughter now, but she's no one to him. They'd never seen each other. Why the hell would he wish for her to be back just to be raised by a god of all people?! That made absolutely no sense!!

And bonus: why in the flippling hell was the bifrost the key? That was so out of the blue and very very "oh i know lemme put this here. There now the plot can happen" with literally no explanation or anything to make it believable. Like how did Zeus not sus it for example?? Are you freakin kidding me? He literally said there was no way Gorr would find the key when it was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM?

It also kinda felt like the ONLY reason they went to omnipolis(?) was for Zeus to say Gorr was looking for the key? Which was dumb? Great scene and all, good dialogue, etc, but it wasn't significant to the plot as much as it should've been I felt.

But yeh the movie was fun, it was good. Jane was awesome, lots of great jokes and cute gay rock love making. I'd rate it 6.5/10 maybe a 7.

Autistic Allegories in Renarin’s Arc - Meta

s’up y’all, your favourite local rambler is back at it again. Diving straight in to this one. The motivation for this post is something that might be controversial, and I’m going to try and explain it as clearly as I can and make my intentions clear, but I get this is the internet and things get misinterpreted to fuck.

So, since Renarin was confirmed to be a queer character, I’ve seen a lot of posts and takes on pretty much every platform I frequent that equates all of Renarin’s traits/struggles in canon as being foreshadowing/parallels to his queer identity and experience.

I get this. I’m also queer. I understand the instinct to take, say, Renarin’s corrupted spren bond and his desire to keep his nature as a Radiant hidden/his lack of understanding initially and assume it to be queer foreshadowing/parallel. I big get that. And that’s not a bad interpretation.

The problem is, this is the ONLY interpretation people put forth. They ignore things explicitly said/connections made in canon to Renarin being autistic and say ‘this is it. this is what this means. it’s about him being gay’. When, actually, a good chunk of it is about his experience as an autistic man in an allistic society. Which I think is what Brandon wants to explore/has set up in the text.

So I decided to look at this in more depth from an autistic perspective - some of the moments that most clearly parallel Renarin’s autistic experience and explain how and why this is a thing, and hopefully just highlight this aspect of his character and explain things to folks.

Renarin’s Blade Screaming

Jumping right into it then: Renarin’s bond with Glys is very clearly paralleled with his autism. The text outlines this connection multiple times throughout the series, and explores it in interesting ways.

First up, Renarin first revealing himself as a Truthwatcher makes this pretty clear:

“And the Shardblade,” Dalinar said, stepping over and taking his son by the shoulder. “You hear screams. That’s what happened to you in the arena. You couldn’t fight because of those shouts in your head from summoning the Blade. Why? Why didn’t you say anything?”

“I thought it was me,” Renarin whispered. “My mind. But Glys, he says . . .” Renarin blinked. “Truthwatcher.” (WoR)

“Adolin,” he said softly. “I … um … I have to give you back the Shardblade you won for me.”

“Why?” Adolin said.

“It hurts to hold,” Renarin said. “It always has, to be honest. I thought it was just me, being strange. But it’s all of us.”

“Radiants, you mean.”

He nodded. (Oathbringer)

Renarin didn’t explain to his father or the others what was happening to him because he thought it was part of his autistic experience.

Being autistic you get used to experiencing a lot of in-brain things and not realising that other people don’t experience them, too. I have hypersensitivity to sound. I can hear things other people don’t, because their brains naturally filter them out - like electronics whining.

The experience of having a Shardblade scream inside your head is actually a pretty great parallel for sensory overload. It’s something intense, something frightening, and overwhelming, and even painful. But Renarin just endures it without comment because that’s what we’re conditioned to do.

“A group of shellheads tried to seize one of the bridges, Brightlord,” the bridgeman said softly. “Brightlord Renarin insisted on going to help. Sir, we tried hard to dissuade him. Then, when he got near and summoned his Blade, he just kind of . . . stood there. We got him away, sir, but he’s been sitting on that rock ever since.”

[...]

“I just stood there,” Renarin said. “I wasn’t frozen because of my . . . ailment. I’m just a coward.”

When Adolin hears about Renarin freezing up he assumes that he had a fit. Renarin corrects him on this, once he’s verbal again, but says that he was just a coward.

He froze up once he summoned his Blade. Because it would have started screaming in his head and this was overwhelming. When other Radiants have experienced this on-screen the screaming has been so intense they immediately dropped or dismissed the Blade, unable to hold it.

From this, I infer that Renarin believes everyone experiences this when they fight with a Shardblade. He doesn’t realise that it’s strange for him because he’s a Radiant. He thinks everyone experiences it, but they push through and overcome it. He can’t, and instead of thinking something strange is going on, he assumes that it’s a weakness of his and that he’s a coward.

This is a fairly common autistic experience. Why can’t you just get over this? Why is that overwhelming you? Just ignore the sound. Just ignore the lights. Stop being so weak/oversensitive.

That’s what Renarin thinks is happening. That’s why he doesn’t examine his experiences more closely, and realise he’s a Radiant. He thinks it’s part of him being autistic, and that he’s just being overly sensitive, until Glys is able to communicate with him and explain he’s a Truthwatcher.

The Rhyshadium Don’t Fit

“They don’t fit, you know.”

“Don’t fit?”

“Ryshadium have stone hooves,” Renarin said, “stronger than ordinary horses’. Never need to be shod.”

“And that makes them not fit? I’d say that makes them fit better.…” Adolin eyed Renarin. “You mean ordinary horses, don’t you?”

Renarin blushed, then nodded. (Oathbringer)

This, for me, is one of the most direct and obvious parallel between Renarin’s experience as an autistic man, and his experience as a Radiant.

Firstly, he comments on the Rhyshadium ‘not fitting’ with ordinary horses. They’re different. They have different hooves, which means they never need to be shod, like regular horses. In this case, being shod is something all horses do. It’s something natural for them, and the Rhyshadium not having it makes them stand out. This is similar to Renarin’s experience in society and in life.

The Rhyshadium are sometimes called ‘the third shard’ - they’re tied to the Radiants and to Stormlight. Renarin aligning himself with them, and his not fittng with them not fitting, mirrors his being Radiant stopping him from fitting in as he wants to.

A big part of his arc is his desire to fit in somewhere. His integration with Bridge Four is a huge boost to his confidence. He asks to join them to try and find somewhere to belong. The bridgemen are outcasts. They’re people who don’t fit in society, either, for various different reasons. Renarin fits with them, therefore, because he doesn’t fit elsewhere.

When he starts becoming a Radiant, and a different type of Radiant to the others, he starts to worry again. He worries that, yet again, he’s different for reasons he cannot control, and he’s worried the bridgemen will abandon or reject him as has happened frequently in noble society.

“So why are you embarrassed?”

“I’m … not?”

Adolin gave him a flat stare.

Renarin dismissed the Blade. “I simply … Adolin, I was starting to fit in. With Bridge Four, with being a Shardbearer. Now, I’m in the darkness again. Father expects me to be a Radiant, so I can help him unite the world. But how am I supposed to learn?”

Adolin scratched his chin with his good hand. “Huh. I assumed that it just kind of came to you. It hasn’t?”

“Some has. But it … frightens me, Adolin.” He held up his hand, and it started to glow, wisps of Stormlight trailing off it, like smoke from a fire. “What if I hurt someone, or ruin things?”

The conversation continues, and further solidifies the connection between the Rhyshadium not fitting with other horses, and Renarin not fitting in with other people.

He had become a Shardbearer, and was starting to fight and do what an Alethi man is expected to do in society. Go to war with Shards, with glory, etc etc etc. That didn’t quite work out.

For Renarin, whenever he gets closer to assimilating with the standard society and expectations, something happens to stop him. Initially it’s his epilepsy. He has fits, and his chronic illness makes him generally weaker and more frail, meaning that he can’t fight.

Once he’s given Shards to help mitigate those factors, he can’t use the Shards because his Radiant bond makes them scream inside his head. Again stopping him from fighting and becoming a soldier.

He then goes on to tell Adolin that he doesn’t really know how to Radiant. And Adolin says that he thought it would just come to him/he would instinctively know, but he doesn’t.

This is, again, a very classic autism thing. We struggle with doing things that allistic people find instinctive, and don’t need to be actively taught - such as reading and projecting the correct body language.

Adolin, who takes very naturally to all this stuff, just assumes that Renarin’s Radianting would just come to him, and Renarin has to explain that actually no, it hasn’t. This literally cannot get any clearer in forging an obvious link between his autism and his Radiant abilities.

Renarin’s ‘Corrupted’ Bond:

“What’s wrong with me?” Renarin asked. “Why do I see these things? I thought I was doing something right, with Glys, but somehow it’s all wrong.…” (Oathbringer)

[...]

“Does it strike you as cruel of fate, Father? My blood sickness gets healed, so I can finally be a soldier like I always wanted. But that same healing has given me another kind of fit. More dangerous than the other by far.” (Rhythm of War)

[...]

Lopen called out, asking Renarin to “look into the future and find out if I beat Huio at cards tomorrow.” It seemed a little crass to Dalinar, bringing up his son’s strange disorder, but Renarin took it with a chuckle.

[...]

It would be so much easier if he were like other Radiants. (RoW)

[...]

“And a blackness interfering, marring the beauty of the window. Like a sickness infecting both of you, at the edges.”

“Curious,” Dalinar said, looking where Renarin had pointed, though he’d see only empty air. “I wonder if we’ll ever know what that represents.”

“Oh, that one’s easy, Father,” Renarin said. “That’s me.”

“Renarin, I don’t think you should see yourself as—”

“You needn’t try to protect my ego, Father. When Glys and I bonded, we became … something new. We see the future. At first I was confused at my place—but I’ve come to understand. What I see interferes with Odium’s ability. Because I can see possibilities of the future, my knowledge changes what I will do. Therefore, his ability to see my future is obscured. Anyone close to me is difficult for him to read.”

“I find that comforting,” Dalinar said, putting his arm around Renarin’s shoulders. “Whatever you are, son, it’s a blessing. You might be a different kind of Radiant, but you’re Radiant all the same. You shouldn’t feel you need to hide this or your spren.”

Renarin ducked his head, embarrassed. His father knew not to touch him too quickly, too unexpectedly, so it wasn’t the arm around his shoulders. It was just that … well, Dalinar was so accustomed to being able to do whatever he wanted. He had written a storming book.

Renarin held no illusions that he would be similarly accepted. He and his father might be of similar rank, from the same family, but Renarin had never been able to navigate society like Dalinar did. True, his father at times “navigated” society like a chull marching through a crowd, but people got out of the way all the same.

Not for Renarin. The people of both Alethkar and Azir had thousands of years training them to fear and condemn anyone who claimed to be able to see the future. They weren’t going to put that aside easily, and particularly not for Renarin. (RoW)

Sorry for the quote barrage, but there was really no other way to do this, and I think it makes a nice little arc in how Renarin sees himself and his bond to Glys and, by extension, his autism.

In the temple, with Jasnah, he considers it to be something wrong. He’d thought he was finally fitting in, being like everyone else, doing something “right” but it turns out his bond is of Odium, and while he thought he fit with the others, he doesn’t. Again.

The RoW segments are what’s most interesting to me, because what we see here, I think, is Dalinar experiencing Renarin’s ‘disorder’ as he calls it and processing it/coming to terms with it in a way a lot of parents approach their kids’ autism. But this is a bit more approachable/less painful to look at because he’s considering him being a weird glowing power ranger, and not an autistic kid. Easier to examine more honestly.

So first of all Renarin, again, calls a direct link between his bond and his autism. The ‘healing’ that came with his bond gave him another kind of otherness. Another way he can’t be a soldier - which, for Renarin, in Alethi society, means him being like everyone else. I was going to go into this more here but this thing is already long as fuck, but in a nutshell being a soldier is Renarin’s dream because that’s him being “normal” and being like everyone else, which fate always conspires to stop him from being.

In Alethi society the peak of masculinity and of fitting in to the social order, which revolves around war and glory and battle courage blah blah blah - is being a soldier and fighting. Which Renarin has never been able to do. Which his father has always wanted him to do - wihich Renarin knows.

A lot of allistic people, especially allistic parents, think their autistic kids won’t pick up on their blatant ‘oh my god I wish my kid was normal’ vibes. They do. BELIEVE ME they do. This is a good little nod to that. Dalinar has never outright looked at Renarin and said ‘I want you to be a soldier to be worthy of my love and respect’ but it’s what Renarin grew up knowing and seeing from him.

The evolution of that through exploring Dalinar’s attitude to Renarin being bonded with an Odium-aligned spren is...Utterly fascinating, to say the least.

Here, for example, Dalinar sees it as a “strange disorder”. When Renarin calls a spade a spade and just goes ‘yeah no that weird thing right there that makes you comfortable? That’s me, buddy, get used to it’. Which is just. Absolutely effervescent. There’s a big instinct allistic people have to dance around autistic people. So many innuendos. So many fluffy phrase that I hate. “On the spectrum.” “On the autism spectrum”. “Differently abled” “Sees the world differently.” Just call me autistic and let me move on with life I do not have time to deal with your internalised issues.

He kind of comes around on it and gives him the whole “you might be a different Radiant but you’re still a Radiant to me, son”. Replace the word Radiant here with person and you’ll have a conversation I’ve experienced so many times. “Just because you’re a weird person doesn’t mean you’re not still a person!” Why thank you for pointing that out. I hadn’t noticed....Thank you for validating my humanity to my face?? As though I needed you to do that?

Contrast this with Renarin’s cheerful acceptance (ABSOLUTELY STUNNING DEVELOPMENT, HELL YES) - ‘yeah no that weird thing right there is me’. I cheered, dear reader, I CHEERED. It’s a little thing but it’s also a very very big thing.

So is Lopen making light of things - in a way that laughs with Renarin and not at him - wanting him to predict the outcome of his card game. Renarin laughs at this, and is obviously comfortable with the jokes and the camaraderie. Dalinar winces at this and thinks that it shouldn’t be made fun of this way, that it’s crass or wrong, Renarin has a disorder, it makes him weird and delicate, people shouldn’t joke around him with that, it’s not right. But Renarin is comfortable with it, and the Bridgemen are comfortable with him, which Dalinar obviously isn’t - though I get that he’s trying to go there.

Then, again, we draw a very direct parallel between Renarin’s Radiant experience othering him socially and autism othering a person socially. Absolutely exquisitely done mister sando, very nice indeed.

Renarin notes that there are ways to go through society. It’s nice to be like Dalinar and have the clout to buck the expectations, and not do what you’re supposed to, and still get away with it. Isn’t that nice? Bitch wrote and published a book and he’s still seen as masculine and worthy of respect and being yielded too.

Remember that Renarin can read and write as well - he learned so he could interpret his visions. But he hasn’t shared that with people. Because he knows that it won’t be accepted the way Dalinar was.

Sanderson sets up this idea rather nicely in Oathbringer, actually, with the scribes meeting.

Renarin glanced at his father. Dalinar responded with a raised fist.

He came so Renarin wouldn’t feel awkward, Shallan realized. It can’t be improper or feminine for the prince to be here if the storming Blackthorn decides to attend.

This part has always made my heart happy. Because it’s not just about Dalinar validating Renarin’s societally ‘feminine’ tendencies - which he gets subtly bullied/mocked for during that meeting by one of the other women in attendance. It’s about all of his differences, it’s about Dalinar validating his autistic experience as well, and helping to fit him in to a society that continually rejects and ousts him.

This idea evolves through RoW, however, with Renarin understanding that Dalinar can do things that he won’t be allowed to get away with. Dalinar isn’t so much breaking down barriers with Oathbringer as he is stomping through them because he has enough social privilege to do so, for the most part, unscathed.

Renarin keeps his reading a secret because, even after what Dalinar has done, it’s not going to change things for most men, and certainly not him.

Renarin has learned, throughout his life, that him being different is not going to break down any barriers. People are not going to change their world, or their worldview, for him and his differences. He knows that he has to adapt, and he knows that he won’t be afforded the same luxuries as others.

He’s more comfortable with this now. He’s learning to be himself, and learning that the world won’t fit itself to him, he just has to do what he’s going to do anyway, and find the places where he fits, rather than trying to change the ones where he doesn’t. It’s actually a really beautiful little arc, and I’m strongly tempted to look at it in more depth at some point. Renarin and Dalinar’s dynamic is actually incredibly deep, layerd, and complex, and it’s something I’ve been meaning to look at for a while. HOWEVER. NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR THAT.

TL;DR: Renarin’s Radiant experience is a direct allegory and parallel to his autistic experience. This is explored and made blatant by canon repeatedly, throughout the series, and Renarin’s experience as a Radiant is clearly a vessel by which Sanderson intends to explore his autism. Stop erasing and ignoring this when you talk about Renarin and analyse his arc. His autism is as intrinsic to this as it is to identity. It’s part of him. Stop erasing it.

I’m not saying you can’t find parallels or comfort in Renarin’s arc as a queer person. I’m just saying you cannot look at it in isolation. As though the text is ONLY making a parallel between his queer identity and his bond. Because it’s very fucking blatantly not. His autism is obviously and canonically tied to his Radiant bond and this is something that MUST be noted whenever you talk about this aspect of Renarin’s character.

Note: if anyone has any questions or comments on this, I am happy to engage and to clarify what I meant/add further detail and supporting evidence for various different aspects. There’s only so much I can cover in one post! For my sanity as well as yours...But there’s absolutely more, and I’m happy to look at that as well.

"That’s an odd statement to make given that they are continuously allowing it." Not at all given they constantly censor it. They obviously weren't allowing 10 years ago when they wouldnt allow it in Gravity Falls. Why do you always deny this part of the issue?

Gay characters in cartoons is "Yes" or "No."

It's never "Yes, but only non humans" or "Yes, but it has to be as violently abusive as possible" or "Yes, but..." It's either Yes or No. Gravity Falls had to fight a yes or no for background gays. A flat yes or no.

Catradora isn't abusive because Dreamworks demanded it. Lumity isn't adorable saccharine because Disney demanded it. Catradora being abusive is something a lot of people argue about and disagree with. ND Stevenson herself probably doesn't agree it's abusive. He went to bat for it after all, rather than scrapping it and pairing Adora up with Glimmer.

People were calling Catradora the "Slow Burn LGBT romance of our dreams."

Y'all will kiss a creator's feet when praising something is in vogue, and then turn around and blame everyone else two years later when the exact same thing is the subject of scrutiny.

We don't need to shift blame, writing a toxic romance is hardly the worst crime in the world and we only bring up Catradora as a cautionary tale of over-hyping something before you've seen the payoff. Nobody's going to lynch Stevenson over being way too into a garbage trope. We're just going to back them for being an AO3 teenager for a few days and then never touch it again outside of association with something else.

Y'all were lavishing SU's gay wedding in tongue-baths until someone looked at it with a critical eye and you went "That was the executives fault! She HAD to staple the wedding to the Diamonds!" THEN WHY WERE YOU SAYING THIS WAS THE GREATEST THING EVER SIX MONTHS AGO SHARON?! WHICH IS IT?!

You can't praise the creator for something one minute and then turn around and blame the executive for the exact same thing the next. Especially when I know you loved that shit. Stop thanking corporate executives for bringing you the gay content you love so much, you weird corpo fuck.

Last Minute Gays is a trope that a lot of LGBT people think is totally fine. They argue with me that it's better this way, at least until Lumity happened and they realized they could get actual cute gay couple episodes now.

"This is a great story! Perfect gay rep! Thank you Becky! But it's also the executive's fault it's so shit! Becky worked hard to bring us this amazing gay content, and it's a shame that Animation Industries ruined it by making it shit, but it's amazing and groundbreaking and revolutionary and also the executives are cowards for not letting it be amazing even though it was amazing all hail Becky Mooncorn! Stop complaining about how long it took, it's better this way, but also it's AI's fault it took this long!"

Which is it, bitch? Pick a fucking lane. I'm not stupid, I see what you're doing here. When asked about Trans Marco, the writers of Star Vs said "We liked that idea, but Disney wouldn't let us do it, so instead we were careful to make sure nothing we wrote contradicted it." That's a lot more believable than "I had to play 4D chess to sneak it past the censors, which I totally succeeded in doing even though I'm admitting to this kind of manipulation in public while still under contract, pay no attention to the marketing department behind me promoting it with the tacit approval of everyone in the company, I definitely tricked people! No I'm not a shit writer overcompensating, fuck you! It works as a metaphor and you can't stop me!"

Y'all are the same fucking crowd who will say "Disney is gaybaiting us" when they show two women who hate each other and want to kill each other with violent, raging gusto.

The real reason gay rep isn't as good as it could be is only partially due to executives having feet of clay. The audience flat out DOES NOT DEMAND BETTER. They demand catfights and abuse fetishism and dawdling romantic arcs. These tropes are EXTREMELY popular. I am in the minority in hating these tropes.

This garbage is what you think good gay rep is, and there are writers and creators who think exactly like you.

Foe Romantic Subtext is ND Stevenson's favourite trope. This would be like if I made a show involving two traumatized lesbians recovering with each other and being adorably saccharine together and turned around and said "making that was a compromise with the higher ups" when people rejected it.

I'd be lying my ass off and anyone familiar with my work would know that instantly.

If you're trying to answer the question of "Why is SU so pretentious for a show that has so little to say" then you could just go to interviews, livestreams and podcasts where Rebecca Sugar talks about the show and realize "Oh, they're a pretentious idiot. That's why." Sugar talks like someone who's never left their house or spoken to another human being. She could write for Metal Gear with the kind of drivel that comes out of their fucking mouth. It's not rocket science, it's literally just 2+2.

What slows progress is that when it comes from any other studio, gay people will accept very little in terms of representation. They will accept crumbs. They will accept being villainized. They will except being portrayed as abusive, and then harass other people who don't accept it. They will claim narratives about being ostracized as "Gay narratives" when such stories can be applied just as easily to race, gender and creed. And they will willingly degrade themselves and call it powerful.

And when that sensitive nerve is prodded, you lash out and reach for excuses. You'll blame executives for the same thing you were defending and calling me a prudish tradwife over just a few months ago because your only investment is wanting the critical people to shut up, and "It wasn't the creator's fault" is the best thing you have because nobody will question it.

You don't actually care about executive meddling except when it comes from the one company you've oriented your personality around hating. But 90% of the time, if the creator was given full creative control with no oversight whatsoever... the difference would be negligible.

And the other 10% of the time, the creator probably pulled a Lauren Faust and quit over creative differences.

took my name and then we were one

Core ot4 + Ben, domestic fluff, loosely based on the prompts family style meals and marriage for legal benefits

“You can’t marry us all just for the tax benefits,” Mal says, using both hands and the pull-up bar in the kitchen to hoist herself up over Ben’s head. “I already called dibs on that.”

Ben gazes up at her. And it really is gazing, Evie thinks to herself. There’s no other way to describe how romantically starry-eyed they are for each other “I think I called dibs on you, actually,” he says. “Seeing how I proposed first and all.”

“Well, I proposed second,” Mal shoots back, pointing her toes and lifting them over her fiance’s head. “Because I’m cool like that, and not some romantic loser who thinks about weddings and taxes all the time.”

“If he’s the king, can’t he just give himself tax benefits?” Carlos wonders out loud. He’s sitting at the counter holding a knife. He is not chopping anything with said knife. The pile of un-chopped peppers in front of him speaks volumes to how effective their usual Wednesdate meal prep together has been lately.

“I think that’s called fraud,” Jay says, whacking more enthusiastically at his own pile of veggies. Not that there’s really any way to get less enthusiastic. “And that’s for awful, evil people like us.”

Carlos flicks a piece of pepper at him. “Oh, so we can just marry each other for the benefits then?”

“Sure?”

“Do it then. Coward.”

This could go downhill quickly. Evie claps her freshly washed hands together, a little too enthusiastically. A little soap foam in the eye never hurt anyone. “Shut up,” she says brightly. “Nobody is marrying anybody just for the tax benefits, and if nobody is going to help cook I’m kicking you all out of my kitchen.”

“Eviiiiiiiie,” Carlos whines, flopping over the counter. “Don’t be meeeeeeeean.”

Jay picks up the pace with his chopping.

Mal swings her feet wildly, which is not the same thing as helping with dinner. Maybe if they attached a little cup of milk to her toes, she could make butter or something. Evie files the idea away for later, if only for the humor value in suggesting it at some inopportune time. “Evie’s bitter because nobody is marrying her,” Mal says in a sing-song cadence. “She’s going to die alone because someone won’t change the laws around polygamous marriage and nobody else is pretty enough for her.”

“Rude.” Jay says.

Mal kicks a foot out at him, which Ben somehow manages to duck. “You’re like, mostly gay. Shut up.”

Jay stabs an onion with more malice than is strictly necessary. “I could pretend. If Evie wanted.”

Evie doesn’t really want to marry Jay, even for the benefits. She has her own healthcare now, and can afford to pay for almost anything she wants even before hidden fees like retired hero’s taxes come in. It would be nice to be wanted, though.

“Aww, babe,” Mal says, and hops down. “Eves, I would marry you if I could.”

“You chose Ben first, I know,” Evie says softly. Her face is hot. It’s stupid and petty of her to be emotional about this. “I understand your reasons.”

“I love you.” Mal says earnestly.

Ben steps across the kitchen, and in one quick motion pulls them both into his arms. His lips are a gentle pressure against Evie’s head, and then she’s squished up against Mal, and her lips are warm and soft and oh-so-gentle against Evie’s own. “I love you too, babe,” Evie tells her. “All of you.”

There’s a thump of two more bodies joining the hug, and then a wet tongue licks her ear. “You’re the best,” Carlos whispers. “Even if you have weird ideas about dinner sometimes.”

#polyshipweek22 #my fic #descendants #this is very fluff and largely unedited so if it doesn't make sense uh idk what to tell y'all #ben florian #mal bertha #evie grimhilde #jay son of jafar #carlos de vil #rotten ot4

In your own opinion which idol needs more smut?

Last time I got an ask like this I said Momoland. That's, uh, somewhere in my archives.

(Btw since this ask is specifically about smut, expect some NSFW talk.)

This time the question is for a single idol... That's rough. There are a ton of idols who need to be written IMO. But I'm gonna say

Kim "YR" "Katie" Yerim... AKA Yeri (of Red Velvet)

So one of my favorite things to do is put a spotlight on lesser-known idols, but I've got a bone to pick with Kpop smut writers. And that bone is: Why the fuck is Yeri (effectively) ignored in the context of Red Velvet smut?

To preface: The rest of Red Velvet is smut-worthy. They're hot/cute/pretty. They're talented. Etc. But proportionally, Yeri gets very little attention. Even Wendy, Red Velvet's official visual hole (which is not my personal opinion, it is LSM's marketing strategy, hashtagWendyIsHotAwareness) appears in more than twice as many M-rated fics as Yeri on AFF according to a simple tag search. From personal experience looking for Yeri smut, for a majority of those fics she appears in, she is cameo character to justify using her name to pad out the fic's tags. You get this to a certain degree with Joy as well, but the difference is less stark, and Joy is less often relegated to background character status. If you ask me, this disparity is a tyrannical injustice and here's a list of reasons why you should join the very real crusade that I will eventually probably start for Yeri to get more smut written about her.

1. Yeri is hot as fuck.

I don't know if you've noticed, but Yeri is hot as fuck, and that's a pretty good reason for you to write smut about her. Are the other members of RV hot? Yes. BUT... is Yeri hot? Yes. And you know she is. She is not only hot, but she has little to no reservation about proving it.

Surprise, mother fucker. Yeri has an ass. It may not always seem like it because she's top heavy, but she definitely has an ass.

Don't try to pretend you weren't already thinking about her god-like tits. Without even being obscenely large, they are capable of changing the center of gravity. Of your eyes. To make you look at them. Because she has boobs. Does your bias have boobs? Don't answer that. I didn't THINK SO. Haha, gottem.

She's got the Squirtle lip, implying she is a water type, implying she is constantly wet and/or a squirter and/or lactates probably. She puts out house fires while wearing sick shades.

As someone with half a foot fetish and an expert opinion, I can also confirm she has the cutest feet in Red Velvet and is in at least the top 5 overall for idols as a whole.

Of course, given how blisteringly hot Yeri is, there are many more physical characteristics that I could cover here, but Tumblr has an image limit and I already spent too long making the collages above while my rapokki gets cold.

2. Yeri cusses.

I love when idols swear in English and this is my list so you can fuck off you gosh damn cunt.

Seulgi is what we call a coward.

3. We stan a horny queen.

We've all seen the clips. "Hi, I'm Katy. Nice to meet you." and "Yeah, I like girls... GENERATION." These were clearly what we call in the biz a panty drop and a gay panic, respectively. Yeri loves porn, sleeps naked, and has at minimum depending on how you count sixteen confirmed kinks (including a foot fetish, voyeurism, degradation/humiliation, something about vampires, and many more). She is a pansexual (meaning sexual toward anyone, though she may also have sexual feelings for kitchenware), gender fluid, ethnodiversity-appreciating switch. With all of the above in mind, she is obviously willing to fuck anyone in any way and if you write about it, she will surely find/read/enjoy it. Also she would have the longest, thickest futa dick in Red Velvet, a fact which is not up for debate.

4. She's not a massive bitch.

Don't @ me, Irene stans. It's a joke and I am exaggerating. Every celebrity of every caliber is under a lot of interpersonal/social stress guaranteed to manifest at random intervals as behavior ranging from mildly to severely antisocial.

But no really, Yeri is a pretty normal person. For as much as you can be if you're an extremely successful idol and influencer, Yeri's kinda normal. She still fangirls over stuff, she regularly shows gratitude, and she's not afraid to be seen as a regular human being, illusion of idol perfection be damned. She actually exhibits more emotional diversity than your average can of grapes, which cannot be said about a looot of idols. Maybe you should write emotional fluff about her too. You can't spell fIuffery without using all the letter's in Yeri's name. And honestly, why would you even try? (In case you missed it, that was a capital i, and was extremely clever)

5. Yeri is a meme idol, and she's funnier than you.

Yeri is an effortless comedian. Seriously, you should appreciate that more. She tries really hard to make you laugh, and you swine don't seem to appreciate them pearls.

If you write like I do, the fact that she's so fucking hilarious is extremely helpful and inspiring.

So yeah.

Also, if you want an idol to write who just doesn't have like nearly enough smuts in an overall sense, write Yooa. I know this was a rant about Yeri, but Yooa is also cool and hot.
