It's alright to scream
I'm screaming too
Why'd you think I do the things I do?
For shadows haunted me like ghosts
So I became what I feared the most
I conduct fear like electricity
A manmade monstrosity
Killer — The Hoosiers
i woke up from a nap with this song stuck in my head and. yea

saiki being in a romantic relationship (or alternatively, actually trying to be in one) for the first time and having no experience or knowledge on what to do, so he falls back on behaviors hes picked up from the people around him..
but the most romance hes seen close up are his parents, aiura + teruhashi + yumehara with crushes and trying to flirt, etcetc (toritsuka does not count cuz what he does is hardly romantic, and that one time kuboyasu was ready to drop everything and marry a girl immediately doesnt count either cuz saiki expressively thought that was too much)
PLUS his own 'secret' obsession with romance stories and cliches..
so like.. crushy honeymoon romance is the only romance he KNOWS..
he would definitely find it too embarrassing to actually be as consciously lovey dovey as his parents are, and wouldnt want to try and be some 'knight in shining armor' like yumehara imagined him at first, but i think that 1) it would be a lot more subconscious and he would just not know any better than to latch onto his partner and 2) he would just choose (consciously AND subconsciously depending on the situation) to just try and do what he knows but in a subtle way..
like, he wouldnt write a love letter and pair it with a homemade chocolate heart like yumehara did, but he might write little notes (which are probably more like encouraging little phrases and paragraphs like a mom would put in her kids lunch than sweet love notes) and make baked goods for someone..
its probably mostly his mom that he models his behavior after, so he cooks for his person a lot and his most notable love language is probably acts of service
thats obviously not his only love language though, quality time was always his biggest until it came to romance and acts of service just barely weighs it out. words of affirmation is a big one for him too.. physical touch is also important for him, but not in the way that it would be for most people i think. its part of his love language more in a way that if he wants to touch a person at ALL, its an expression of love.. i think he would be big on sitting close together so his thighs and hands are just barely touching theirs, holding onto someones arm or having his arm be held, stuff like that..

thinking about how the one time eliot masterminds something, it's because the circumstances are dire and we don't actually see it happen; how he says he plays chess and nate believes him but we don't ever see it or hear about it again; how we don't even see his most basic fighting skills until they're needed and he has to drop the cerebral and nonthreatening grift he was using in front of the team. and I don't know what to think except that in some ways he's just as secretive as parker is, we just don't see it because on top of that he's this very believable gruff-but-sorta-amiable person who meets up with his vet buddies and goes on dates and cooks for his team.

tfa shockwave in disguise but he accidentally knocks up an autobot, and when they see the baby.. there are questions.
"hey why's our baby purple with red eyes and antlers?"
Sdfyui YES
It would be so fascinating because they're wondering where the hell the genes came from
And you just know Shockwave's gonna lie somehow to keep his cover
ykw I'm actually seeing the hilarious explanation of a rumor that "Longarm" is Shockwave's long lost son

1000 Cranes Senbazuru Update
Progress: 267/1000
Tumblr media
My apologies for leaving you guys craneless for a month, school starting up again and my mental health taking a pretty significant hit made me temporarily forget about the project, but no worries, I did not abandon it! We will get these cranes folded! I found a surplus of green sticky notes, so most of our additions today were green.
Also, I feel that after this slight hiatus, it might be beneficial to tell you guys what inspired me to start this whole thing to begin with. I wasn’t sure about discussing this at first because it’s quite personal but I wanted to share a bit about why the senbazuru project means so much to me.
When I started the project at the end of August, I was doing an unpaid internshop at a corporate job. It drained me both mentally and physically and I was at a pretty low point. I couldn’t quit because the internship was pretty much essential and would significantly improve my chances at getting into my dream university in the US which I was completing my application for.
Now, I’ve done origami as a hobby for years and my go-to way of satisfying my stupid ADHD brain is by making little scraps of paper into, more often than not, origami cranes. I’ve known about the myth of folding 1000 cranes and how it would grant you one wish to come true for a while, and somehow, even though I’ve never been superstitious or religious, I’ve always thought that in a moment of need, that was the one thing that would work.
And so, sitting there and rotting away behind my desk, I was fiddling with sticky notes and I had an idea. If I kept myself from losing my mind through by folding a thousand sticky note paper cranes, maybe my wish of university would come true and this hellish internship would make it all worth it. Also, being Asian is an important part of my identity, I have a lot of respect for my Japanese relatives and I think that for me, especially given the fact that I'm an immigrant, keeping in touch with your heritage is important.
I submitted my early decision application last week and am currently sitting in my own nerves waiting for the response. I've dreamed of going back to the US to study for as long as I can remember, so this is really big deal for me, and I know that at the end of the day, folding paper probably won't sway the admissions officers' minds, but I'd be lying if it I said it didn't give me a little bit of hope.
Anyway, sorry for that very rambly post, but I felt that maybe sharing the reasoning would help me hold myself a little bit more accountable to finish this.
Let's do this!

im so grateful for this corner of the internet where i can just get my frustrations out

the problem of the matter is i did internalize so much of what ex friend believed about me. even though i knew he was wrong and knew what was happening and tried to stop it and if i took more action to stop it would have been abusing power i held in a way i couldn't live with myself for.
#A BAD PERSON TRYING TO RUIN YOUR LIFE WOULD'VE GOTTEN YOU FIRED AND EVICTED IN WINTER IN ALASKA YOU MOTHERFUCKER. WHICH I DID NOT DO#he was renting a room from my dad. for cheaper than he wouldve been able to find anywhere else. his brother was too#his brother didn't pay rent for over 6 months and my dad just forgave him the debt because my dad knew how much of a difference it wouldve#made when he was that age. and i had told him ex friend was family to me & my dad applied that to the brother too. bc he is a good person.#and one of the strongest parts of my support system. and i didn't say a word to him about what was happening until i knew he already had a#plan for when he would be ending ex friend's lease. so there would be no subconscious impact on ex friend's housing either#mgmt at work straight up asked me if i thought ex friend should be fired immediately multiple times and i'm in retrospect livid they put me#in that position but told them to go by the strike system in the employee handbook and to follow policy that ex friend knew perfectly. that#it couldn't be on me as acting assistant manager to choose#and after 10 months of workplace harassment i got a different job to save my life. ex friend didn't get fired.#he did saw trap shit to my brain!!!!!! jesus christ#he moved cross country to live with his long time gf he called his wife despite never having met irl. to a way more conservative state.#despite being gay. and she left him this summer lol#hadn't checked his twitter in over a year when it got pulled up frm an old link and i saw that. and when he was already at a low point too#me voice. oh no who could've seen this coming. from how you behave in every relationship in your life#may delete this in the morning. but i have to talk about it sometimes#i'm never reaching out for closure both bc he wouldn't give me any and because i know it would trigger him and i don't intentionally trigge#people. unlike him :)#vampire pit#like. i have to talk about it sometimes. i have to talk about it.#jam posts

I get that “the family that moves into the haunted house doesn’t trust each other enough to believe each other when one of them starts saying shit is haunted” is one of those genre tropes that’s like, it needs to be that way to make the story go, but I think you could do an interesting subversion/genre bait-and-switch by making a couple that pretty early on goes “no, okay, it doesn’t matter if you’re hallucinating or if the basement really did try to eat you, the person I love doesn’t feel safe so we’re getting the fuck out”. Idk it’s just really rare to see romantic relationships survive horror films and I think you could do something fun with it.
#I am still thinking about burnt offerings after it wrecked my shit last weekend#and like the context of that film is that all those people hated each other’s guts both in the story and irl lmao#so it would never apply there#but it got me thinking bc#‘would you leave for me? even if it was all just in my head?’#has the potential for incredible romance between characters for whom the answer is an unequivocal YES#I was ALSO thinking about that film#in the context of like. it Seemed Important that it was a nuclear family with a kid#so what happens to that story if the impetus is really#we’re renting this house out in the middle of nowhere in the country#so that when we quietly invite my husband’s FRIEND Dave to come join us#no one needs to know or be asking awkward questions about why Dave is spending the whole summer with us#this is partially me being like. mmm.#I think if I thought about it more you could Say Something Interesting#about the fragility of nuclear families and how the individualist mindset behind them#cuts you off from perspective and support#with this kind of story structure#and partially me being like#I think it would be funny if the house that eats you is defeated bc it doesn’t know what gay people are#just bamboozled. why is there another guy here. get rid of him. why isn’t he leaving#ALSO to be clear#in this scenario the wife is a beard#but that DOESN’T mean she’s expendable#it means she is these two men’s single most trusted friend and confidante#and that they are gonna fight tooth and nail not to let a house eat her#the house trying to sow distrust by manufacturing a scenario where it looks like the wife is cheating: WHY ISN’T THIS WORKING

I've been trying to stay out of the canon/fanon conversation just bc it's such a large topic with far too many perspectives, angles, misc source materials, and personal tastes to take into account when I'm just a casual content maker/enjoyer. Reading all this though... I can't help but think there's some parasocial perceptions going on with many askers, where they feel like they're engaging in polite debate/discussion with someone they know in order to understand better/explain their own stance in a friendly manner. But... on the other side, receiving these asks from literal total strangers definitely would feel like they're forcing opinions on you, or criticizing your own tastes or just being needlessly rude in one way or another (And god I hope that's not me, but I won't assume I've never done it. Or if I'm even doing it with this ask. I'm sorry if I have!). Regardless, I'm assuming none of these asks are in bad faith, but I can imagine receiving and responding to them is stressful! I really hope that despite it you're doing good overall and also having fun on the actual writing prompts sent to you, because I've been enjoying reading them! Hopefully the discussion clears up and it's a smooth commute forward to something more fun, especially for yourself👍 -Stove Anon
You always have such insightful takes Stove Anon ;w; And I totally agree with you that it’s a really large topic of conversation that’s hard to convey when the format is ask-response, I don’t blame you for trying to stay out of it (if it wasn’t happening on my blog I would have stayed out of it too orz).
That is a really excellent way of putting it and honestly probably what is going on!! If this were a group chat/server or a conversation amongst friends in person, I definitely would feel less stressed and on the defensive with talking about this. Heck, I have some classmates who have played PLA and we engage in open discussions like this often (hi hello and goodmorning if you guys are reading this XD). The convo also being all text based doesn’t help, since I can’t read tone of words and my brain will actively interpret certain phrasing as being negative while that might not be what the asker intended! Plus the fact that it’s really a 1 v However Many type of conversation where I’m the main conduit where all of the points are being directed at since—like I mentioned—it’s an ask-response thread happening.
I’d like to think that the asks aren’t being sent in bad faith too!! Even if I am stressed out and anxious, I try to engage like they’re in good faith.
I am having fun on the prompts for the fic requests! I hope to get more out tonight and maybe whittle down the count XD You are so sweet as always Stove Anon ❤️

trying to get to better as a person is so nauseating. was lonely yesterday so i messaged friends to try and plan hang outs. forced myself to ask about reference letters today even though i turned bright red and felt like crying. messaged friends tonight to ask if they could help keep me accountable so i don't feel like i'm doing everything alone. barf. i hate this. i want to hide in a hole
#THIS IS GOOD FOR ME IT WILL HELP BUT IT REQUIRES CHANGE#and i am realizing maybe i am significantly worse with change than i thought i was#ie my parents and sister and a few other people think i should apply to more schools#specifically more schools outside my comfort zone#and it would be so cool!!!! but it requires me to change the idea of 4 schools to like 6 or 8#and change from a few hours from home to like a days drive away or FARTHER#and this is already going to change my whole life's routine#and i'll be away from all my friends and family already#and i am just remembering how awful that was the first go around in undergrad#and maybe i am super scared of that happening again#and also i need to reach out about GA positions and that means i have to talk to professors#which is scary and also a change from undergrad cause i avoided talking to them as much as possible#and i am just AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#so. hopefully some of this will help but also. i am crying inside. a lot.#i also need to change my fanfic habits because i honestly think it is like... the most time sucking thing in my life#and part of me wishes i never started reading fic because it gets in the way of me doing literally everything else i need to do#but stopping or even just cutting down on it is killer#but on the bright side i have been on youtube a lot less recently and leave it deleted off my phone for longer periods of time#which is good!!! it means i'm not on my phone as much#but yeah. stuff and things and trying to do stuff that's good for me is the worst
