koujaku slander
Something I've been thinking of is why the hell Koujaku carries that big ass sword with him everywhere.
He wants to forget his abusive past and everything that haunts him in nightmares, he says himself that he wanted to forget his revenge once he was in the island, so why would he carry a sword that he doesn't want to use? It's not like he needs it to fight, he knows how to, he does it frequently and got training as a kid, he wouldn't have a problem with the bunch of tryhards that try to defeat him in the island. Makes no sense to carry a weapon that would only remind him of what he was forced to do.
So anyway my main point is that I think him not carrying it would add a lot more to his character. They basically made him carry it because design stuff I'm guessing, convenience or whatever. Besides the fact that not carrying it would make more sense for the person he wants to be in the island, I think it would add to the mistery they build around him.
When things get dangerous, suddenly he appears with a sword, since when does he have it? How does he know how to use it? When and how did he learn? You know what I mean. The whole point of the conflict between him and Aoba is that Aoba starts to discover a bunch of things that relate Koujaku to the yakuza, you know, dangerous people. Which is funny because Vitrip, but anyway, you could still explain why Aoba trusts them and starts doubting Koujaku because Virus and Trip say it out loud and say that they don't do the dangerous stuff. Even if they're lying, they're lying very well and Aoba believes them, he doesn't have any reason not to, specially since he knew them before they joined, supposedly.
But Koujaku, that avoids everything he can about his past, has hidden his tattoos, he started acting weird, etc, suddenly appearing with a sword that he can use perfectly and having that murderous and tenacious aura he's suposed to have would make Aoba's doubting feelings more intense for him and for the spectator. I don't know, maybe he got his sword hidden in his house when he gave up his revenge and takes it when they're about to go to Platinum Jail, maybe he could grab a random sword from someone they fight, anything that is just not from the start.
Also him having that murderous aura when he fights I think could be a really nice resource to use too, he doesn't look like that until he fights Ryuhou and is mad as fuck (or well, the glitter incident, but i mean exclusively when using his sword).
When he fights dummies in the island he's like always, but when in PJ he sees signs of Ryuhou being around it clicks and starts with that relentless, no mercy fighting style, that even Aoba is like ??? 😨. He's a killing machine. In the end, he was born a slave, and he'll always be unless Aoba can scrap him correctly. Him being Aoba's slave in his bad ending is just perfect, the only reason he's still alive is because Aoba wanted him.
(in conclusion he likes aoba using him when they have sex)

ngl one of the most useful things i’ve internalized from doing art online is never tell people what to criticize. don’t preemptively apologize for things or point out where you think you fumbled, it’s just priming people to notice minor issues that might not actually matter and hit you where you’re sensitive and throw you off your game. don’t tell people your weak points. if it’s a genuine problem they’ll point it out

saw a take so fucking rancid on twitter i almost deleted the entire app from my phone jesus fucking christ
Tumblr media
first of all ao3 is an archive site. this is like going to the library and saying "oh i dont like this" on every piece of media you find that you dislike and thinking they should be stamped with some sort of a marker just cause you didnt like it
you can always click back and leave. fic writers owe you nothing to explain themselves and their creations. if they have mistagged or miscategorized fics, then i understand, however there are report tools for that instead of yelling at the artist tbh
im not saying free works arent necessarily above criticism. but this is just. fucking wild. its common courtesy to just enjoy stuff (or fucking leave if you dont, the back button is free) and if the artist specifically asks for critiques, then give one - constructive that is, shitting all over someones work is not proper criticism, mind you
i just find it fucking wild people are treating art and archive sites as social media these days like this and everything needs to be policed and ~catered to the algorithm~ like. no. ao3 doesnt have an algorithm. you should be able to fucking tell what you like and what you dont like and steer away from that kind of content and let people fucking be with their art. they dont owe you anything (except trigger warnings i'd argue, but i know some people disagree with that as well for some reason), and imagine how much more energy you'd have if you only engaged with things you liked and spent time looking at instead of going to places where you dont enjoy yourself. let alone spending time telling other people you dont enjoy what they enjoy. what a fucking life

I'm following a couple fan fic writers who get a lot of asks, and sometimes they get a salty one that reads like it wants to be constructive criticism but it's really just rude and a matter of preference and I just think that their responses to these people are much nicer than I think I could be.
I looked at a CR fan art recently and someone in the comments did the whole "come on don't draw her like that" that I used to bitch about constantly and the artist never responded to it.
I just don't think I'd have it in me to be nice anymore. Idk. I think if I got those kind of messages I would just tell them to shut the fuck up and leave me alone.
