#i was like 'oh i don't wanna block them bc what if they'll Know'
Note
Hello! Firstly I wanted to say that I'm an old fan since your overwatch days and I've always admired how much depth you're giving all the characters and relationships you touch! I'm talking like, mariana trench DEPTHS. And how confident you seem about just doing the things you enjoy and exploring the themes you want? I really respect that.
I'm having a bit of an art crisis recently and I was wondering If you could offer some advice?
I'm thinking about self-indulgence in art, particularly fanart. I like to dive in deep to expand on characters, I find it as enjoyable as creating my own work. But I fear of people getting angry at me for latching onto these characters, thay they'll say the original work wasn't THAT deep, or that I'm completely wrong or cringe or whatever. And I don't care about being right or anything, I just want to have fun here and tell my little stories? :( The fear is making me keep the work to myself and I don't know what to do. Would it be better to just enjoy it on my own?
Your blog really is goals when it comes to that, so I'll respect your opinion a lot. Thank you for your time!
holy moly thank you so much for your sincerity first of all!! Second, this is making me misty eyed ngl!! I have alot to say about this so i shall put it under a read more bc im gonna ramble
If someone cares about you fixating on your fave characters, then they're usually the fucking weirdos in this situation if they dont just block you and move on. I LOVE making shit up about my faves like i have a modern au hc that kakashi and gai are ddr competition rivals and i gave yeehan 7 dogs just for funsies!! we were in the trenches in early overwatch making up our own lore bc there was none and it was so fun
I've always been like that now that i look back bc when i first started uploading my shitty ms paint fanart on deviant art in like 2006(naruto funnily enough we've come full circle) i was still drawing cringey shit /I/ wanted to see. I don't agree with almost all of it today, but i remember the fun i had while making it, and that's really the trick. Drawing what you personally want to see then people can come and go audience wise. If they like it, they like it, if they dont? oh well! There's people who still follow me from when i was 14 and i follow them even tho we're in completely different spaces now.
The fanart part i vibe with personally bc im really bad at coming up with totally original work and premises. i much prefer having pre-established rules and worlds to work with (plus the characters i love getting massacred in the writing i HAVE to save them)
Just existing online will garner you mean comments or asks, and my best advice is its not worth it to take the bait even if its absolutely absurd and wrong, i just block and go now, and im much happier :) this all being, of course, as long as what you're doing isnt harmful, bc even with good intentions, you'll mess up/blunder eventually. If the heat gets too much for you, no one will judge you for withdrawing your art from social media. thats a perfectly safe thing to do to keep it for yourself.
As an adult, shits not that serious im 28 drawing naruto fanart bc it makes me happy after a long day of work, so have fun!! art's supposed to be fun don't let the fear win i love sharing my art with strangers on the internet!! Hope this made any sense at all and I wish you the best, my friend!!! If you ever wanna dm me, feel free

I'm so happy I give you life ;) I chose James bc deep down I'm a James girl and it just fit best with him imo. I hope you like it!
Timeless
James Potter x reader words; 2230 song; Timeless by T Swizzle (TV, duh) alright y'all, this one might get a little confusing. Let me break it down for you. italics is lyrics (and two other super small things, you'll know it when you see it), italics and bold is memories, there's two memories split into three parts total, when the story starts saying would that means thats what would happen if it did, yk. You and James do die, I just wanna make that clear. if you love a song, the marauders, and my writing, request a song fic and your wish shall be my command. now, i have two things. one, you can give me requests anyone in the marauders era btw, not js the actual marauders (i'll even accept Peter because i like to think he never became evil and was always just shy little Peter). Second, GIVE ME PREFERANCES PLS they'll be good fillers for in between longer fics so please pls pls i rly want sushi rn anywho HAVE FUN

Down the block there's an antique shop
And something in my head said "stop", so I walked in
Y/n quietly walked into the small antique shop and the woman at the counter smiled kindly at her. She smiled back and gave her a small nod before looking around the shop. It was much bigger than it looked on the outside, so she assumed an enlargement spell was used on the inside. There were loads of trinkets across the many shelves, big and small.
On the counter was a cardboard box
And the sign said photos 25 cents each
Y/n’s eyes caught a bright white sign with bold red letters, “Photos 5 knuts per” she walked over to the table, curious. She thumbed through the pictures, all of them were old, as they were dusty and black and white.
Black and white saw a 30s bride and
Two lovers laughing on the porch of their first house
I smiled as I pulled out a picture of a man and woman. The man was in a nice suit, a bright happy smile on his face as he held the hand of a woman with a beautiful wedding dress on, her smile matching his. They seemed to be laughing in the picture, radiating pure joy. I turned the picture around and read the pen, “Just married! 7/24/36”
The kind of love that you only find once in a lifetime
The kind you don't put down
As Y/n flipped through more pictures, her mind wandered to James. She saw them in these pictures, together no matter the circumstance, with bright smiles on their faces and laughs leaving their lips. They’d be hopelessly in love in any universe, and she knew it.
And that's when I called you, and it's so hard to explain
But in those photos, I saw us instead
“Oh, did you stop by the antique shop?” Y/n’s mom asked as she walked in through the door, a small bag in my hand. 
Y/n nodded with a smile, “I did, it’s pretty cool in there. I’d love to talk more but I need to write James a letter.”
Her mom laughed, “All right, you go, don’t take too long though. Supper will be done soon.”
And somehow I know that you and I would've found each other
In another life you still would've turned my head
James looked up from his desk as a loud pecking noise was made on his window. He smiled as he saw his girlfriend's owl, banging his beak against the glass of his window with a letter tied to his leg and his claws clutching onto a brown package. James opened his window and let the owl in, petting him gently and placing a few pellets on the window cill for him to munch on. 
James opened the letter quickly, pausing as two black and white photos fell out. He furrowed his brows at the photos and his eyes flitted to the package. He grabbed it and untied the string, opening it quickly to find an old book, a few specks of dust on the front. He laughed to himself at the randomness and began actually reading the letter.
Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
And you were headed off to fight in the war
“Off to war?” Y/n would’ve said, a laughing tone in her voice.
James would’ve nodded with a smile, “Yes. But we could write to each other, we could court and then once the war is over we’ll get married!” He‘d say excitedly.
Y/n  would have laughed, “Of course we will.”\
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
James would’ve been hanging halfway out of the train, the only thing keeping him in being his friends as he waved to the love of his life.
“I love you!” She’d shout and he’d blush.
“I’ll see you later, love! Don’t miss me too much!” He’d yell back, blowing her a kiss before he was forced back on the train.
I would've read your love letters every single night
And prayed to God you'd be coming home all right
“Oh, Y/n, don’t be ridiculous. James will be fine, I’m sure.” Lily would tease, smoothing down her skirt as she sat on the bed next to her best friend. 
“That’s easy for you to say, Lils, he’s not the love of your life. I don’t know what I’d do without him.” She’d say, setting his latest letter into a box that held all the other ones.
“Y/n, have faith in the man. He’s strong, he’ll make it.” Lily would persist and Y/n would nod with a sigh.
And you would've been fine, we would've been timeless
She’d run to James at the train station and he’d drop his bag and hold his arms out, catching her in an embrace and spinning her around. She’d laugh joyfully, thankful the love of her life was finally home. 
“Oh, I’m so thankful you’re okay.” She’d whisper and he’d kiss her cheek. 
“I’m thankful to be back with you, beautiful.”
'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
So even in a different life
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
James smiled at her idea, quite liking it himself. He loved listening, or in this case reading, about all her ideas. He knew how much her mind ran wild, thinking of every possibility for every little thing, and he loved it. He loved being a part of it. 
I had to smile when it caught my eye
There was one of a teenage couple in a driveway
Holding hands on the way to a dance
And the date on the back said 1958
James picked up one of the pictures and smiled at the couple, still in their wedding attire, holding hands tightly on a porch. He set the photo down, it not being the one he was looking for, and picked up the other one. He gazed at the two teenagers, almost imagining them as himself and Y/n. He could see it, and he remembered what it was like taking her to the Yule Ball. How beautiful she looked in her dress.
Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
Time stood still like something in this old shop
I thought about it as I started looking 'round
At these precious things that time forgot
Y/n and Lily walked into the train station together, hand in hand, happy to have made a friend before they even arrived at Hogwarts for their first year. Y/n giggled as Lily told her a story about one of her friends, Severus, and promised to introduce the two to each other. Y/n suddenly paused and Lily looked over, concerned.
“What is it?” Lily asked and Y/n pointed to a boy who was messing around with two other boys.
“He’s-” She paused, trying to find the right word. “Beautiful.” Lily laughed loudly and Y/n snapped her head to the side, “What?”
Lily shrugged, shaking off her laughter. “Nothing, nothing.”
That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
Hundreds of years ago, they fell in love like we did
And I'd die for you in the same way
If I first saw your face
James looked at the book he had unwrapped and silently read the title. He hummed thoughtfully and opened the cover, leaning back slightly at the dust that filled the air. He smiled at the dedication the author gave. 
“To the love of my life. We, my dear, are timeless.” He read out loud softly. 
In the 1500s up in a foreign land
And I was forced to marry another man
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
“James.” Y/n would’ve said, running to him and hugging him after they were finally alone. “I don’t know what to do.” She’d cry softly as he rubbed her back gently.
“It’s okay, we’ll figure it out.” He’d say quietly, being equally as lost as her.
I would've read your love letters every single night
And run away and left it all behind
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
“Do you have everything?” He’d whisper outside the castle and Y/n would nod, handing James one of the bags.
“I do. Let’s go.” She’d say and throw the bag over the back of her horse, making sure it was secure as James would do the same. They’d share one last kiss before mounting their steeds and riding away as quickly as possible. By the time the castle woke up and realized the princess was gone, it’d be too late.
'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
So even in a different life
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
James laughed at her story, setting down the letter and glancing at her owl who hooted softly, waiting for something to return back to his owner. James pet the owl again before pulling out a piece of parchment, his quill, and an ink well, and immediately started writing back.
Time breaks down your mind and body
Don't you let it touch your soul
It was like an age old classic
Y/n smiled as the familiar pecking of her owl reached her ears. She rushed to her window and opened it, petting her owl gratefully and pulling the letter off his leg. Y/n sat down on her bed and practically ripped open the letter.
The first time that you saw me
The story started when you said hello
In a crowded room a few short years ago
It was third year, in the Great Hall. Y/n had spent the last two years of her life pining after the one and only James Potter, who barely even glanced at her. At least, that’s what she thought. But that couldn’t have been farther from the truth. 
“Just go talk to her already, Prongs.” Remus said quietly, patting his friend on the shoulder. 
James shook his head, “No way. I couldn't.”
“Why not?” Peter asked.
“Because Peter, she’s perfect. She’s beautiful, has perfect grades, I mean, she’s probably the smartest witch I’ve ever known, minus my mom. She’d never like someone like me.” He explained and Sirius rolled his eyes.
“Dude, you’re hot. That’s all you need, now go.”
And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
You're always gonna be mine
We're gonna be
“Hi, Y/n.” James said, standing awkwardly as the girl turned around awkwardly.
“Oh, hi, James!” She said, a small blush painting her cheeks.
“Okay, bye, Y/n.” He said, walking off and cursing to himself for messing it all up like that.
“Uh, bye, James?”
I'm gonna love you when our hair is turning gray
We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we made
And you'll say "Oh my"
“Aha, look what I found.” James would have said to his wife, pulling out the pictures she had sent him many, many years ago.
“Where did you find those? Did you find the book too?” She would’ve asked, a smile on her face as she would look at them. 
James would’ve shook his head, “Nope, no book. I’m not sure where that went. I found the letter though.” He’d say and pull it out as well. Y/n would smile as she reread her words.
“Oh wow, I’m such a sweetheart.” She’d say with a laugh.
“Not much anymore.” James would tease and Y/n would’ve hit his arm. “See what I mean.”
We really were timeless
We're gonna be timeless, timeless
You still would've been mine, we would've been
“Come on, Harry. I saw this shop when I was going on errands with mum.” Ginny said, pulling her boyfriend into a cute little antique shop. Harry looked around in awe at the shop.
“Why, hello there, young ones.” The lady at the front said, a warm smile on her face.
“Hello, ma’am.” Harry greeted and Ginny smiled at the old woman. 
Even if we met
On a crowded street in 1944
Still would've been mine
You would've been
“Look, pictures.” Ginny said, pulling Harry over to look through them. They sifted through them silently before Ginny pulled one out. “Harry, these look a lot like your parents.”
Harry grabbed the photo and inspected it closely, “They… they are my parents.” His eyes widened as he looked at the cost of the photo. The sign had bright red ink on it, “photo’s 5 knuts per”.
The lady at the front smiled when Harry placed the picture on the counter. She gazed at the photo and shook her head with a laugh.
“I remember when she first walked in here. Ah, it was such a long time ago. She bought a few of these and an old book, and two weeks later she brought him in. They were such a sweet couple. I wonder how they’re doing now.” The woman reminisced as she took the knuts from Harry.
Harry smiled at the woman, holding back tears, “Yeah, I wonder too.”
Down the block there's an antique shop
And something in my head said "stop", so I walked in

ATEEZ Age Regression/Caregiver HC
not requested
Tumblr media
this is an age regression headcanon; if you don't like that, don't read it, age regression is a sfw coping mechanism, so i will be blocking anyone who might sexualize it
Seonghwa
as a caregiver
so,,,
we all know where this'll start, right?
momhwa
everyone's favourite, like there'll be wars to get his attention
even if there's no one around, his baby wouldd always be seeking his attention
maybe by showing something they'd made or misbehaving
he's tried to say that 'if you want attention, you just have to ask'
but no bc that would not be right
right??
no clue, seongwha doesn't rly get why his attention is so important but he thinks it's kinda cute either way
when he's watching over his little, he's also just content sitting there, doing nothing other than keeping his eyes on them
but even with as soft as he can be
he WILL call you out when you misbehave or cuss at him
he hears a commotion happen and he knows his baby is in the middle of it?
uh oh
"you stop that right now, little one!"
and you will bc he has pretty much mastered the 'don't you dare' stare
and you don't wanna be on the receiving end of that
well, that depends
bc it usually works on someone regressed younger
but if they're a kid regressor, they'll probably just constantly push to see how much he'll take
and you'll know when he's had enough bc, not only will he tell you, but you can also see it in his eyes.... shuddering at the thought of being on the other end of those
but he will soften up as soon as his baby acts cute toward him
just a cute little gesture and some puppy dog eyes and they're back in the warmth, so to speak
seonghwa would be so devoted to the role of someone's caregiver
he has so much love to give and being able to just take care of someone's every need while they're small and vulnerable and innocent and adorable?
it's a hell yeah from him
having someone to baby like that is one of his favourite things
he's not very loud and/or wild when in his caregiver headspace, so a calm regressor would be the best fit for him
but he would of course never reject being someone's caregiver just because they aren't calm
he'll just guide them into calm states a lot, since those are his favourites
he loves loves loves having his baby lay in the crook of his arm, cuddling into him, as they follow along in the book he's reading aloud for them
it's even better if it's a little longer of a story, since he absolutely adores looking down randomly to see his baby having fallen asleep to his voice
though, as much as he likes when his little is calm small, he does NOT like it when it's bc they're sick or down
then he starts fussing and worrying over them
he hears one unhappy whine and his cool, calm and collected nature is out the window
might even call for backup from another member if he's RLY worried
and he dreads taking his eyes off of his baby for even a second when they're in that state
when he does have to, he leaves them with a million kisses being placed all over their face (mostly on their forehead) and just holding on to them
that goes on for like 10 minutes, less if the little falls asleep while he comforts them, before he can do what he needs to go out and do
when regressed
i definitely believe that he's a shy little baby
he keeps to himself a lot, doesn't seek out the attention
he loves being warm n cuddly
big sweaters n coats n blankets
give them to him, let him snuggle up pls
he also love his kitty ears headband
he got it as a gift, it has little bells hanging from the ears
it's his favourite accessory when he's regressed
he's the type to, as soon as he sees his caregiver, he gives them a smooch on their cheek
it's become his way of greeting them
he's feeling just a little bit small, his reserve of being affectionate in front of others goes away
and it's become a method of payment, if you will
if he asks for something, his caregiver will pretend to think about it very hard and then tell him that it costs him a kiss on their cheek
which he gives happily
can still be a bit shy about doing it in front of others but still does it
bc he gets such cute reactions when he does it regressed
a lot more coos than if he were to do it when he's big
flappy hands when frustrated or excited
it can result in some injuries if we aren't careful
like, hitting himself, but that happens more if his frustration isn't taken care of
he just need someone to help him calm down
he's just feeling a lot of feelings that needs to be expressed :((
is pretty calm and quiet until you put on girlgroup songs, best of all twice, then he'll jump up to have a dance party wherever he is
and of course, movie nights are the how to train your dragon movies 50% of the time
he even acts out toothless' facial expressions while watching the movies
not for anyone, i don't even think he himself knows he's doing it, but it's adorable either way
he has a million toothless plushies hidden all around
he always have one ready to grab
he's never more than 50 meters from one, like it's excessive
when going out, he either brings a little plushie or a stuffed toothless keyring accessory
Tumblr media
Hongjoong
as a caregiver
i'll just say it now
he's definitely the type to dress you up all fancy just to go to the store or park
like those parents who dress their toddlers like they're young adults
but he makes sure you enjoy your outfit too
it's actually more that he matches his outfit with what you like to wear, just a more grown-up version of it
he's loud and you know when you've reached his line
he'll yell but not in a scary way, more like in a way that makes it fun to get him to that point
but if he actually feels like he needs to discipline his little, he'll do it when in private
never in front of others
both for his own sake and his baby's sake
something like that is very personal
and never actually yelling. he's very aware that there are some things you never do to a child, and never ever to someone who may already have certain triggers
dramatic dad tho
but also very very sweet and considerate
if you see something in a store, he'd be game to go and buy it for you
he just likes to provide like that
and it makes him happy when his little one is happy
he's very aware of people's relationship to being touched, as it's something he struggles with himself
so he'll always ask before doing anything involving touching
"do you want a hug, baby?"
one thing he does love is when you lay your head in his lap uwu
"can you hold my hand while walking outside, sweetheart?"
he knows that his baby would rather have him with them all the time, but as his role as leader and the time he spends in the studio, there are some days when he doesn't get back till late
but he always makes sure to stop by his baby's room, check in on them and give them a kiss on their forehead
probably have something, like tying a little bow with some string around your finger, to let you know you'd been kissed goodnight if you were to wake
when regressed
he mostly uses aegyo as a weapon
if he wants something or wants to avoid doing something, out comes the squishy cheeks and big puppy eyes
and it's super effective
excited and polite baby
also very bitey
he doesn't know what to do with his affection and his energy a lot
so he just bites ppl
his caregiver is going to get bitten the most
it's done out of love though <3
if he gets a lot of love, he might get a bit emotional
pull back and isolate himself
it's not that he doesn't like getting loved on or being around those who love on him
he's just used to being the one having to keep it together
so if you see him become quiet and pulling back, go with him and hold him as he cries
baby has sensory issues
when he isn't regressed it mostly manifests in not wanting to be touched
but when he's small it shows a bit more
some days he's okay with most things but
some days he needs his sensory clothes and can't even handle his hair touching his forehead in a wrong way
and he wants to show affection but doesn't like the feeling of being held onto
so he finds something, holds it at one end and offers the other end for his cg to hold onto
hongjoong can easily get pulled out of his headspace though
so, it's best to hide everything that reminds him of his responsibilities when in his adult headspace
there's nothing worse than when he suddenly gets pulled out of his regression
he'll get overstimulated and confused and dizzy at the sudden shift
and there's nothing to do rly, other than leave him be to get himself to the right place mentally
Tumblr media
Yunho
as a caregiver
for me, yungho seems like the one most likely to be physically affectionate with his baby
not that the others wouldn't be, but he's just something else
he's always holding his baby's hand and pulling them into his arms
just always touching them in some way
hand on their back or arm(s) around their shoulder(s)
cuddles are a must with him
he loves loves loves just laying with his baby
bodies fitting together like puzzle pieces
he feels nothing but bliss and happiness if his baby lays themselves on him
most likely to love giving you 'uppies'
he also loves teasing his little with threats of eating them
opening his mouth around one of your fingers and softly chomping down on it, just as a little joke
"you're just so cute, i wanna eat you!"
"Daddy's gonna eat you, baby!"
big fan of listening to baby talk coming from his little
just gibberish directed towards him and him going
"oh really? wow, tell me more!"
and in that vein, he also has conversations with stuffies
if his baby says one of their stuffie said something, he'd look at the stuffie and talk to it
absolutely playing along, not ever a question coming from him
(he also secretly loves playing dress up, feeling good when he's dressed as the prince or knight that saves you)
he actually reminds me a bit of bandit from bluey with the way he just goes along with his baby's shenanigans
i don't know how else to say it but
he's just so warm and loving
he would go above and beyond as a caregiver
do everything in the world to make sure his little felt loved
i really feel like he'd be the best caregiver of the bunch,,
he works so hard to make himself a safe space for others
when regressed
naps, a lot of naps for this one
he gets very confused a lot
just big questioning eyes
being confused a lot can make him feel even younger
everyone is very protective of him bc nobody can stand seeing him upset, least of all his cg(s)
another regressor would maybe use that to get their way, but not yunho
he just feels safe and cared for
he's not incredibly loud when regressed
type to always carry a plushie around with him
he just loves having something soft to hug and hold
shy when it comes to affection but loves it
he won't ask for hugs and kisses but is given them all the time
and he gets all blushy but he likes it a lot
in his head he's way smaller than he is physically
so, when he's running up to his cg or anyone for a hug, he doesn't realise how big he is
more than once making the person he's tackling fall over or lose their footing
he loves when he's laying in his cg's lap and looking up at them
makes him feel so small and giggle, especially if the cg is making faces and being silly
he just loves being the one below, being doted on
a lot of times that means he's being tickled but he doesn't mind, as it makes him feel smaller
he's more of a baby regressor than a little actually
which hurts his cg bc he wants to be carried around and treated like a baby when regressed
but he's so physically big, it's hard to do so
even though most of them work out and are strong
but there are ways to help
he loves bottle time
it's usually before bed with some warm milk
it's warm and safe and he feels like the tiniest little boy
Tumblr media
Yeosang
as a caregiver
i don't see yeosang being a parent-type of caregiver, i rly don't
babysitter maybe, mostly see him as being an older sibling type
he'll try his best though
he'd make the space very comfortable and very chill
like, priming the livingroom for colouring and cartoons time for the little
family means a lot to him, so if you really see him as a parental figure, of course he'd do his very best
he'd do well with an older regressor that'll pull him along for things
then he'd just primarily have to make sure they're okay
likes guiding the little
just holding their hand
and maybe having dance parties
very giggly when the little is being silly
always ready to shower the baby with compliments but
if you want him to be flustered yeosang (tm), just give him loads of compliments back
he loves feeding the one he's taking care of
it's one of the things he know he'd be able to do successfully
!!! he also loves playing board games with the one he's taking care of
he'll get so into it, it would just be a great time for both him and the little
he likes cuddling together
both him and the little will just fall asleep like that most times
he'd also agree to playing dress-up, though he would be a little embarrassed about it
when regressed
loves playing pranks, but very quick to apologise if the slightest look is given to him
though, he doesn't have to apologise bc all is forgiven when it comes to yeosang
very very giggly at almost everything
everybody, and i mean EVERYBODY, finds him adorable, which makes it hard to scold him when he's done or said something
if someone asks him to do something he doesn't want to do
it's one pleading look from him and he gets out of having to do it
he's definitely king of the house when he's regressed
the little prince who rules everything
and he doesn't have to lift a finger if he doesn't want to
the only thing that is a sure thing, that everyone has agreed to uphold, even if little yeosang pleads and looks sad
is that he cannot have chicken every day
2 times a week at the absolute most
he loves being fed so so much
and his cg(s) love feeding him
he looks so cute munching on food that's given to him
it's almost a fight for who gets to feed him if he has multiple cgs
which is not such a wild thought, bc everybody wants to take care of him if they find out he regresses
if wooyoung is one of the cgs, he definitely sneaks himself more chances to feed yeosang, since he's making a bunch of the food and snacks for him
i think the one who loves feeding him the most is hongjoong, so he's second in line after wooyoung
his cg(s) would definitely lead the 'yeosang protection squad'
ready to fight if anyone dares to disrespect little yeosang
they'd go to the ends of the earth to make sure yeosang is feeling safe and happy
Tumblr media
San
as a caregiver
his first priority is making sure that his little is his first priority
everything else comes second
always makes sure they are included in everything
it's important to him that he's verbal when it comes to caring for his baby
so, a lot of reassuring words and words of affirmation and love
but he won't forget the physical
always pulling his baby into his embrace and having them there for safekeeping
so he can be a shield against all negativity
he'd do all the things that are tedious so you wouldn't have to
cutting up food, putting in the DVD, bringing you your stuffie
and he's so quick and silent about doing that, that you mostly don't realise he is doing it
he's always keeping his (affectionate) eyes on his little
ready to jump into action at the slightest hint that they need him
always keeping them comfortable
absolutely staring daggers at anyone who has made them uncomfortable
you do not want to be on the receiving end of those
he'd be the parent cg that's always there
which can maybe be a bit much
but for a clingy little, he'd be perfect
he'd go to sleep and wake up hugging his baby close to him
that physical connection is very important to him
he wants to make sure he's a safe space
even around others he wouldn't change his behaviour
he isn't shy or ashamed about his relationship with his little
and if they wanna be little around other people, he is there to make sure that nothing happens while they are
when regressed
pouty baby
and with a lisp uwu
and and he's very loud when little
he has problems with fine motor skills
though that doesn't stop him from enjoying doing makeup while small
especially on others
it'll look like a mess of colours and glitter but he just loves doing it so much
has to have his stuffie in bed or he can't get to sleep
(probably blåhaj or blåhaj sized, since it's perfect for hugging to sleep)
((can confirm))
his mind flies around a lot
until it locks on something specific and then he can't stop thinking about that until he has done something about it
when he's excited about something, he yells out about it multiple times
to show how excited he is and get others just as excited about it
he doesn't really care if people gush over how cute he is
he wants them to indulge in what he's into at that moment though
showing care for what he pays attention to is the best way to show you care about him
very territorial when it comes to his favourite people
the person who's his favourite can vary, but not how clingy and possessive he is about them
he will hold them tight, not letting them go
and if anyone tries to take them away, he'll hold them tighter and either get angry or upset
when he's upset he's prone to hitting
either himself or others
he doesn't hit hard and it only takes a gentle hand and a soft "baby, no" for him to stop
but it's what he does when he's frustrated or upset
to get him to calm down, cuddle him tightly
Tumblr media
Mingi
as a caregiver
he loves carrying his baby
just having them in his arms is something he loves
and knowing they feel better being held by him is everything
piggy back rides is something he's rly good at
he can run and stuff for when it's supposed to be fun
and he knows how to walk slowly when you're tired
is the type to let his little cuddle with him while doing other things
or having adult conversations with someone
just holding them tight while continuing to talk about work or whatever
loves tickle fights
he usually wins but
he just loves hearing his little one giggle up a storm
will aggressively pinch your cheeks
he'd sometimes ask his hyungs for advice on taking care of someone younger
he's a little nervous about it
but they usually tell him just to be himself and go with his gut
and they are right
as soon as he gets into the mindset of taking care of someone, he does really well
he loves nothing more than to have his baby in his lap while they colour
pointing and asking what they're colouring
helping too if the little asks for it
is the type to take his little out on walks to parks
holding their tiny backpack for when they wanna run around and have fun
just watching with a smile
when regressed
loves rolling around
it makes him feel all small and silly
also laughs with his entire body
which sometimes is the reason why he's rolling around
loves being in his cg's lap
but he's also very self-conscious about his size
so it usually ends up with his legs being slung over his cg's legs
unless they physically pull him into their lap
very curious
will look over your shoulders if you're doing something on a device
even if his young mind won't understand it, he loves watching the screen as things are being done on it
pretty shy about wanting attention
when he wants some, he usually bumps his head into the person he's wanting attention from
he loves being held from behind
even if the person holding him is way tinier than him, he'll feel small and protected
isn't much for eye contact when little
will look at your nose or lips when you're talking to him
he'd be a menace around other regressors
whispering and keeping secrets and plotting against the cgs
probably be the planner of the cookie coup
sweater paws >>>>>
he loves having knitted sweaters that are just too big for him
a very snacky boy
and plays with his food too
but he's just too adorable doing it that nobody can tell him not to
(especially dino nuggets)
Tumblr media
Wooyoung
as a caregiver
so attentive
like the boy is all over the place and wild but when he's with his baby, every single ounce of his attention is on them
his eyes are glued to them and he loves keeping their hand in his
some of the members may tease him about that but he loves giving kisses
and he doesn't hold his want to give a smooch back
as soon as he gets the impulse to give a little kiss to his baby, he does so
you'd never not feel loved, being wooyoung's little, because it's constant affection with this one
he'd always be ready if his help is needed, you just need to say the word
"papa, can help me with my math?"
"need help cleaning up"
"check underneath my bed for monsters, please"
his answer is always "of course!", he puts everything on hold if his baby needs him
he feels the most in control and in his element when he's cooking
he loves having his baby watching him
he loves when he's cooking and his little joins him in the kitchen, sitting at the table he isn't using and start to colour while talking to him about random stuff
he loves the domesticity of it
and he loves it even more when they come over and peek at what he's doing in the kitchen, eyes full of wonder
making snacks is therefore one of his favourite ways to show love for his baby
when regressed
not gonna lie, i see wooyoung being really shy about his regression
he knows it's just banter and fun but he's so used to the others sometimes hating when he's acting cute normally
he'd always scurry off when he's slipping, not wanting the others to catch on that he might be a little different
but of course they do
i might write something further on this but
san is the first he tells about regressing
he trusts him and knows that san would never look down on him for something like this or ridicule him
when he finally feels comfortable enough, he fully lets out his cute childish side
grabby hands for almost anything
always wanting his cg by his side
whining a LOT bc he wants his way with almost everything
loves performing
like, dancing across the room, making sure all eyes are on him
he just loves attention
repeats sounds or words or sentences a lot
if he finds them funny at least
his cg says something like "nah-i don't know actually"
and wooyoung repeats it very giggly
lovesss praise
he does something and immediately seeks praising words and pats on his hair
when he's excited he hops
so much his cg refers to him as 'little bunny'
Tumblr media
Jongho
as a caregiver
he loves providing for his little
you want anything and he'll bring it
within reason of course
loves having quiet nights
where he'll be reading a book and his little will be watching a movie
maybe they'll look up at him, tugging at his pant leg, going "papa, papa! look!" and pointing at the screen at a scene they like
and he'll ofc look up at it and respond with something like "that's very cool, baby!"
and then go back to his book until his attention is needed again
very verbal about how proud he is of his baby
he always wants to show his support for whatever they decide to do
ending the praise with a soft kiss placed on top of their head
can stare you down if you've done something you weren't supposed to
best at tucking someone in at night
and omg the lullabies he could sing
though, i do worry about him going all in and being too loud for the baby to sleep
(jk, boy is very respectful about his volume)
he's the type to come home and cuddle you if he's been working late
fully dressed too, not even getting under the covers
it's how he recharges
wears soft cardigans a lot bc he knows it's a nicer fabric for cuddling
also will let you put whatever cute headbands you want on him
when regressed
is a sucker for being dressed
someone helping him, pulling a shirt on over his head
snapping his overalls in place
he just becomes mush
loves really soft clothing
anything with fleece
sleepy baby in the mornings
barely a person, so has to be helped a lot
clapping his hands when laughing or finding something amusing
but very quiet other than that
even if he has comments or concerns, he whispers them in his cg's ear
even if they're alone
he just doesn't really like talking when he's regressed
gets his way most of the time
one pout from him and your argument is invalid
he likes teasing too
like the kid that's constantly poking you?
yeah that's jongho
won't outright admit to it but he loves being held
nuzzling into someone's warmth is very comforting for him
he likes playing games
not video games but those children's games that aren't exactly board games
like the crocodile you have to push its teeth or the hanging monkeys?
those kinds of games
Tumblr media
A/N: gosh this took a lot of my creative energy but was so fun to do. since my ateez concert, i've just not been able to get those boys out of my head, so now they're here too :3

Hi Macy! 10, 18, and 25 for the fandom asks please!
KAT!! HI HI HELLO!
10. a blog (mutual or one you follow) that has made your fandom experience brighter: literally every single one of you. every! single! one! but if i had to shout someone specific out it would be @gardenerian and @iansfreckles, for everything they've given me over the last few years. they'll know what i mean 💛
18. a fandom tag that you track: i actually don't track any fandom tags! is that surprising? i check the "shameless" tag sometimes to see what y'all are up to but that's about it! i might start tracking the #chappell roan tag tho bc i'm starting to be really active in that fandom. is that a fandom? it is, right? idk, i just adore her!
25. a piece of advice for taking care of yourself in fandom space: oh GOOD GOD i have so many pieces of advice for this. first, use the block button. i am not kidding. the worst thing someone can do, like the ABSOLUTE worst thing that will happen, is someone making a passive aggressive callout post about you on their page. which like, is not that bad. it's happened to me and i'm still here and kicking! second, enter every situation with zero expectations whatsoever. every interaction, every post, every piece of art you share. expect absolutely nothing to happen so that when things do happen, it's an even bigger joy. i never expect anything i post to get any traction so when it happens, it's even better than it would be if i was jonesing for notes! third, find your people. it can be one person or ten people or thirty, but find them. put yourself out there and be unapologetically YOU and the right people will gravitate. then make a group chat, a discord server, etc. and talk! talk talk talk! all the time! about fandom stuff and non-fandom stuff. share things about your life, bitch and moan, just generally engage as much as you can. i do it and it's glorious. fourth, don't feel like you need to be constantly logged in. if you're worried about not being active but your mental health is suffering, set up a queue and take a step back. do not be afraid to be inactive though, because ultimately fandom should be fun and the second it stops being fun, you HAVE to step back and take care of yourself first. engage in other non-fandom hobbies in the meantime, and if you're like me and you didn't have any when the fixation broke and your life was in shambles, find one! it will be the best form of catharsis and help bring things back into perspective. lastly, remember that IT IS NOT THAT SERIOUS. don't participate in infighting. don't make callout posts or vaguepost about stuff because it will only make things worse. rise above it. if you wanna bitch, bitch to your friends in private and be kind and courteous in public. it will save your skin and your sanity. GOD THIS WAS SO LONG but i have just learned so much and i wanted to pass it on. anyway. tallyho! i love you all 💛

yr tags: the moral police and especially the plot police on tumblr had me exhausted > yaaaaaaas like please just enjoy the show and if you don’t like it then drop it silently. no need to spam the dwy tags on why youre dropping it bc its annoying to read when all i wanna do is look at pretty scenes and read meta posts on the characters.
besides them being flawed are so realistic and nothing is ever linear so its interesting not being able to guess whats gonna happen next
Honestly Anon, even if we look past how wrong most of the assessments were in the light of what we know of the plot today, some people wake up and just don't choose kindness.
Like a while ago a show with my previous fave was airing and I just hated the thing to the point of dropping both show and fave simultaneously. Believe me when I say I was bitter. I was so bitter because I had lost my fave I can state I hate that show. I had invested a solid year and a half in him, and when I say invested, I say INVESTED. I went to my favorite show of him tag and cried, to his costar tag and cried. I moped and complained to my group chat and they 😒😒😒 at me a lot. But do you know what I didn't do? I didn't go to the show in question's tag and try and suck the life out of everything and ruin the fun for everyone else. I just unfollowed his tag and carried on with my life ignoring what didn't bring me joy. Couple of months later I am happy with my new (recycled) faves, having the time of my life watching this gem completely catered to me that is Destined With You.
Emotional vampires are a thing in social media, too much ego and too little empathy. Postmodern Mr. Darcys who don't care about how their 'truths' are going to impact the rest of the people or worse, narcs who hope they'll have the worst possible effect. It isn't that deep but a matter of taste so let's just be aware and ignore people and block and curate our experience and find our tribe because it's what we deserve.
Funny but in the end I always end up watching my favorite shows til date with a handful of the same people over and over (starting with @louche-laid-back-glory & @1dreality who can't get rid of me in real life) even if we are not mutuals or anything but I recognize the @ and those are my people. 'Oh you are here too?' I think. 'No wonder.' And I'm happy I don't leave social because a couple of (very loud) dissenting voices.
Now Wednesday can't come soon enough because even if DWY is a bit all over the place it has a hold on me and I can't stop thinking about it!

Anon Requested: hi!! could you do a comfort fic for anxiety/trauma relating to an ex? like trust issues type stuff where you had to change your number and make a new acc on everything bc he wouldnt leave you alone. maybe eddie and venom help u w that?
Day 21!
A/n: I hope everything is going okay! And I hope this bring you some form of entertainment! Took forever to post because I kept having to change some stuff, and then the proofreading, etc etc. But, it's here now! And I hope you like it!
It just kept ringing and dinging. It was certainly letting you know that someone was trying to get ahold of you. And you were foolish to think it would stop. It's just kept going, day in an day out. And if it wasn't the phone, it was your socials. Messages flooding in seemingly every thirty seconds. It just would not stop.
How did it get this bad? Everything was so nice for a long time, why now?
Hey I'm around. Wanna hang?
You aren't answering. You okay?
Should I come over?
Same address, right?
Hey you should really pick up the phone.
So you're just going to ignore me?
Hello?
You couldn't take it anymore. It was going to end with you in a straight jacket if you kept dealing with it like this. You slammed the phone onto the counter, tearing through the apartment for anything hard and heavy enough to crush it. You landed on the lone hammer Eddie kept in his desk. Surely, for emergencies only.
You stalked back over to your phone.
It's like talking to a brick wall.
You ever going to pick up? Or do I need to call more?
I know you're reading these.
You can't hide from me forever.
H-
You brought the hammer down as hard as you could. Once, twice, and a third time just to be sure. You breathed a sigh of relief at the sheer quietness that flooded the apartment.
"Finally." You said, sitting on one of the bar stools, "Peace and quiet."
The door busted open and you lifted the hammer, thinking the worst was about to happen.
"I heard banging! Is everything o-...Kay?" Eddie looked from the hammer, to your face, to the kitchen island.
"Oh, it's you." You said, lowering your arm and dropping the hammer on the floor.
"The hell happened here." Eddie shut the door and walked over.
"It just- It kept ringing. It wouldn't stop. They wouldn't leave me alone."
"Hey, it's okay." Eddie rubbed your back, "We can just get you a new phone. I was planning on doing that anyways."
"You were?"
"Yeah, wanted it to be a surprise." Eddie looked at the remnants of your old phone, "So, surprise."
"A real surprise would be showing up to their place and eating them." Venom grinned at the thought.
"You don't have to do that."
"But I want to." Venom protested, "Besides, it's not like anyone would really care."
You sheepishly pulled at the ends of your sleeves, "Could you two maybe, instead of eating people, help me set up some new socials...?"
"I'd love to!" Eddie said, "Man, I've been waiting for you to ask. I love giving random companies all my personal information."
Just as promised, Eddie had gotten you a new phone, and helped you set it up. And he also helped you make new profiles for everything, making sure to block undesirable people in the process.
"I don't like having to use my last name." You said, "I'm sure they'll just keep bugging me."
Eddie took his laptop, "Here, then. Use my last name."
You felt your face heat up as you watched him type out the name Brock. He slid it back into your lap once he was done, "See, that was easy."
You stared at the screen, bewildered that that actually happened.
Eddie leaned over, practically laying on your shoulder now, "Wow, looks nice. And that name? Snazzy."
You felt like you could just burst into flames at any given moment.
"Sir," You said, "That wasn't necessary. I could've thought of something."
"Wouldn't have been as cool as Brock, though. What? Were you use Smith?" Eddie teased.
"Reeves, actually."
"Like Keanu?" Venom asked.
Eddie looked at the symbiote, "How do you know about Keanu?"
"I have hobbies, Eddie." Venom sounded offended, "I like to watch stuff while you sleep."
"Anyways." Eddie waved him off, "I think this looks really good. A fresh start for you."
A fresh start, you thought. Yeah, that's nice and all but Reeves is way cooler than Brock.

A Witch & A Hick, Chp. 3
Little Secret
This chapter is just the two learning about each other and car problems lol.
Also warning for Elizabeth offering sex as payment lol, it doesn't happen. Also I do hc Lester living in a trailer bc its extremely common and realistic tbh.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lester puts the truck in drive and looks at Elizabeth as he presses the brake, 
"I remember you said there's a town nearby, any chance we can go there to fix up my van?" Elizabeth asks as she pets the two dogs, 
"No need, they'll charge ya criminal prices. I can fix it." Criminal prices, he repeats in his head. 
"Oh come on, you've already done so much." Elizabeth says her face soft, 
"I insist! I can't just let them uh take ya money when I can fix it for free." He smiles and Elizabeth mirrors it. Lester gives from the brakes and drives towards his home, 
"I have a feeling there's something...more behind this." Lester gulps, 
"What made ya think that?" Lester nervously laughs and his hands tighten around the wheel, 
"That's how most men are, expect a favor for a favor. Though they often expect ya know." Lester blinks and cringes, 
"Aw that! I wasn't thinking anything like that, hell I wasn't even thinking about you doing anything." 
"I mean I'll do it." His eyes widen and he stops the truck again, 
"What?" He blushes and looks at the girl, 
"I'll get you off, I've done it before." 
"No no! I have to decline, I just ain't that kinda man." Lester nods to the woman who shrugs, he lied. He is that kinda man, he's had victims beg for safety with offers of sex. He always took it, but let's the girls fall back in the hands of his brothers. 
"Not that I don't find ya pretty!" He defends quickly and Elizabeth laughs, 
"You're real purdy, I just. I just can't." He sighs and Elizabeth notices how tense he is. 
"Thanks, for calling me pretty." She smiles, 
"I think you're real pretty too." She compliments Lester who blushes again, Lester has never talked to a stranger this long. Never had a girl call him pretty, never met her.
"Ya just sayin that cuz I'm given ya a ride." Lester chuckles and Elizabeth shakes her head, 
"Nope," she pops her P, 
"Everybody's beautiful in they're own way, just as nature intended." Lester blinks and remembers her van, the witchy collection in it. 
"Oh right, you're a witch!" Lester exclaims and Elizabeth nods, 
"How'd you know?" She teased and Lester laughs,
"How'd you even get in all that junk anyways?" Lester asks and flicks his hat, 
"It ain't junk. Don't be rude," Elizabeth smirks and Lester nods his head, Jonesey puts her head on Lester's lap. He pets the dogs head. 
"Sorry but, how did you ya know..start?" 
"My sister got me my tarot cards, she really showed me the basics of witchcraft. Our parents didn't really care all that much but never let us do it in the house. Guess that's why I moved out so early too." Elizabeth laughs, 
Lester pulls up towards a driveway of a trailer.
The trailer is a once white single wide, covered in vines and ivy. Bones hung from the porch ceiling, 
Elizabeth notices his front door was wide open, and in the yard were scatters of trash, car parts, bones and more. The windows were open but blinds were keeping the inside blocked. 
It looks like nobody lives there, as stray cats scurried under the trailer and hissed at each other.
"I'll be quick, I'll just unload your van and fix her right up in a jiffy." Lester smiles at the girl and gets out of the truck, Jonesey follows and Mac follows after her. 
Elizabeth smiles as she watches the two dogs sniff around and play, getting out of the truck her barefeet sink into the grass and dirt. She stretches, the truck wasn't entirely comfortable with Mac siting right on her. 
"Sorry for the mess, I don't really have guests." Lester says as he unhooks the van, 
"Its fine, I've seen much worse." 
"Nah, doubt it." Lester shakes his head and wipes his hands on his jeans, Elizabeth takes note of the depreciation joke he says. 
As Lester pops her hood and smoke rises from it, Elizabeth frowns. 
"That happened before?" Lester asks as he waves the smoke off, Elizabeth nods. 
"Yeah, I've had a couple engine problems. Mainly because of oil, but my light wasn't even on." 
"Yup, cars will do that. Just spring a problem on ya right as ya were doing fine." Lester grazes his hand over the engine and instantly finds the problem, 
"When's the last time ya changed the cooling fan?" 
"Never." 
"Cleaned it?" 
"Never." Lester sighs and Elizabeth frowns, 
"That bad?" He nods, 
"Your engine is busted, you're gonna need a new one." 
"Nooooo." Elizabeth groans
"Hey its okay, this happens all the time. It's just an accident." Lester tries to comfort the girl, she squats and hides in her knees. 
"Hey now," Lester gets on his knee and pats the girls back. 
"We can maybe order one from the next town over, but it'll take a while for it to come in since we're basically in the middle of no where." Lester then sits with the girl and he blinks when he hears a sob come from her. 
"Jeez darlin, it ain't anything to cry about." He says and Elizabeth looks up, her makeup more runny than before, 
"This is my karma! I know it is and- and I shouldn't be cryin-ing but-" she hides her face again and Lester stutters, 
"Aw no no, this ain't karma just an accident. Honest." 
He isn't entirely sure what else to do, seen plenty of girls cry in Ambrose. Ain't none of them cried like this. 
Crying about karma, hell if karma was real he'd be dead, he thinks and shakes his head. He gently pats the girls back as she sobs. The two dogs show up and sit around the two Mac places his head on the girls back. Pushing Lester's hand away, Elizabeth quickly hugs her dog.
After a couple minutes, her sobs stop and she looks up. 
"Im sorry Lester, I just. It's just been a lot today," she says and wipes her eyes, smudging her makeup. 
"Wanna talk about it?" Lester ask and Elizabeth looks around, noticing the sun is starting to set. 
"No, not right now. I'm just tired now, sorry for bothering you with my emotions and junk." 
"Ain't no bother at all, I'm happy to help." She shows a smile from his words as he stands, he puts his hand out and she takes it to stand. 
"I know, and thanks again. Do you think it's alright if my van stays the night? I'll try to go to another town in the morning and order an engine. I'll find a motel too." She says, trying to clean her face up from tears and makeup. 
Lester raises a brow, and Elizabeth shakes her head already knowing he'll offer his home. 
"Lester please you've already done so much for me! I promise that by tomorrow I'll be out of your hair." She says and Lester shakes his head, 
"Darlin, How about we both go into town order you an engine and when it gets here I can put it in. If you think I'm letting you sleep in that hot van for the night you're dead wrong." Lester stands up straight and crosses his arms, Elizabeth actually has to look up to see his face. 
"I've got a spare room, it's messy and mainly holds all my junk but it's got a bed, a desk and a closet." Lester says and Elizabeth takes a deep breathe, 
"Thank you," she says and Lester uncrosses his arms, 
"I mean it, without you I'd probably be kidnapped by some crazy guy. Unless you are the crazy guy." She jokes and Lester nervously laughs.
"I like to call myself unqiue." Lester jokes and Elizabeth laughs, 
"That you are friend, that you are." Elizabeth says and watches as the sun falls behind the trees.
After grabbing her needed things from the van, the two walk towards the trailer. 
The two walk onto the wooden porch, Elizabeth's hands grazing the bones hanging above, 
"Those are my people repellents, makes hikers skedaddle." Lester jokes and Elizabeth smiles, 
"They're beautiful," she compliments and Lester walks through the open door, 
"Yup, they sure are. I uh, I keep my door open so the strays can come in and relax and get away from the heat." He says and flicks on a light, it blinks a few times but turns on. 
The two are standing in the living room, the couches covered in fur and scratches. Clothes are all around and clean and unclean bones sit on the coffee table. 
But the recliner is free of fur, just a flannel on the back. 
Lester notices his playboy magazine on the coffee table and quickly snatches up the magazine, Rolling it up he laughs embarrassingly. 
"Sorry about that, again not often I get guests." Elizabeth smiles and shakes her head. From behind the two, Mac and Jonesey come running in. They jump on the couch and sit next to each other. 
"My house is there house." Lester pets Jonesy's head and smiles, putting the magazine behind the couch during this. He turns to face Elizabeth whose staring at the bones, 
"I'll show you to ya room," Lester walks to the right and opens a bedroom door, 
The bedroom filled with bones in boxes, books, clothes and random knick knacks. He quickly lifts boxes from the bed and pats the dust off. 
"My casa your casa." He smiles and Elizabeth places her stuff down, Lester stands in the doorway now. 
"Thanks again, Lester. I really appreciate it." Elizabeth puts her hand out and Lester looks down at it. It's so small, he gently grabs it and Elizabeth grabs one of the bracelets on her wrist. She brings it over her hand and onto his, 
"I can't not give you a gift." She says and lets him go, Lester looks down at the bracelet. A whole set of animal teeth with beads in between. 
"I- thank you. It's so purdy." He says and continues, 
"You're a real uh...what's it called?" 
"Freak?" He quickly shakes his head, and takes her hand again. Putting their wrists together with the bracelets, 
"Unique," he smiles, "You're a real unique girl." 
"Is it because I mess with bones and junk?" 
"Well that, and because you're real nice." Elizabeth smiles, 
"You're just as unique as me Lester." She says and the two look at each other for a second, wanting this conversation not to end but not sure how to continue. 
Suddenly from behind Lester, Mac barks. 
Elizabeth laughs, 
"It's past his bedtime, sorry he gets cranky when he's not in bed by this time." Lester let's the dog run past him and onto the bed, 
"Well, goodnight, um. Sleep tight?" 
"You too Lester." Elizabeth quietly shuts her door and Lester stares at the closed door. Jonesy whines from behind him, 
Lester turns to the dog and squats, he pets the dogs cheeks and smiles. 
"She'll be our little secret, right Jonesey?" The dog licks his face.

people seem to forget that one the beautiful things about internet nowadays is that you can mostly filter what you want to see or not
i do ship buddie and yes I believe some things are a stretch, but honestly? that's why I'm here and I find it amusing more than the opposite
i don't mind Taylor - I actually like her, even if there's a take or two that I not particularly fond of, and what do I do in this case? I ignore things. I read the beginning and think "ok, this isn't for me" and I just keep scrolling.
I used to not mind Ana either, I'd actually defend her, but then I saw what some disabled people were saying about her character and I decided "well, I'll stop talking about something I don't know" and I stopped engaging with it. But then the thing about GW came out and as a latina i was pretty pissed, so I took to block things about her, since most of the defending didn't feel right to me. And that was it, end of the story.
My problem with all of it is that the 911 fandom today is mostly buddie. and again as much as there many takes i don't agree with, it has to be recognized. There are means to keep in your bubble, mostly because people normally don't want to see things that are buddie negative so they'll avoid you naturally. But when someone posts something that will stir the mood of people and, knowing this, they deliberately put it on the tag where said people are going to see? that's looking for trouble. There's some things I have to say that aren't very popular around here that I don't tag at all because if you decide to fight me on that is because you searched for it or because someone else posted it in the tag - and seriously, go fight them, not me.
What I'm trying to say is that I think we all need to learn how to ignore things better and, more than that, I think that if I want to say my piece I can do it from the safety of my little bubble. And I'm not here to be called racist and misogynistic - which are very serious accusations and people use the words way too freely - just because someone went digging in my blog and decided they could come tell me their opinion.
sorry laying it all out on you Alicia sjshdkjsjs
I'm just tired and pissed and you're been pretty level headed about all of this
oof yeah the whole ana situation especially is so messy tbh bc im right there with you on your opinion on her - i used to be pretty neutral about her but then i saw posts from disabled people in fandom pointing out where she got it wrong in all of 3.12 and became less so. like i didn’t think she was some evil irredeemable monster by any means but the show also never made a point to correct her about it so idk like it’s just not my place to be like “oh it’s fine” bc nothing was ever addressed on that front and it’s not fine clearly
all of that to say that it’s totally understandable why people dislike her and don’t wanna see her on their screens. but i will say that even still, the language that some people use towards her and the way they choose to go after her (on things that are completely separate of those valid criticisms of her) are really gross. so like idk it’s kind of this thing where no i don’t think criticisms of her are inherently misogynistic/racist at all, but just because there *are* valid criticisms of her doesn’t negate the fact that misogynistic/racist language is still used towards her and then dismissed. imo just because a character did something offensive i don’t think it makes sense that we collectively don’t critically think about the way she’s treated by fandom and excuse things that make other communities in fandom (like latinas, for example) uncomfortable and hurt. like i just think about irl if a WOC made an offensive suggestion, it wouldn’t justify attacking them with racist and misogynistic sentiments bc it’s just not fucking necessary to make your point. So that’s kinda where i am with all that
oh and then the whole thing about GW came out and people who aren’t even latinx and clearly don’t actually care about the latinx community (considering the way they talked about ana before they knew all this, or even the way people talked about eddie as well) used that as a shield for their own racism and as a free for all pass to just say whatever the fuck they wanted to say. shdjdks sorry for the mini side rant but this fandom is so frustrating ahaha
but yes also agree that people weaponize big flashy words in this fandom without giving much thought to it lol and yes people also definitely go looking for shit sometimes and that’s entirely their problem. people can post whatever they want and if you go looking in a circle you know isn’t for you then thats on you. and the reverse is true - if you post something negative in a tag that is supposed to be a space for whatever that thing is, that’s also very much on you
