Confession: i think a lot of ppl acknowledge that Tom is a good actor, bt some ppl question his non-Spiderman roles, which i dnt personally disagree with. He def gets praised for his acting being the best part of a lot if his projects (cherry, tcr) bt i think ppl want movies/shows scripts to actually match his acting talent. Hes 27 and seems lik the type to keep on going, so hes going to b ok lol i think the R+J is really going to b great in his career and same with the Fred movie. I think he really does well in musicals and stage work

I do see a lot of overlap of Tom/Tomdaya fans, bt some of the few solo Tom fans I see seem to hate Z 😬 idk what it is about a lot of white boy fans hating their partners (even if its a small minority, their loud), bt it seems to b a trend. Tom used to follow some of his fanbase igs too, bt has since unfollowed some of them and mayb that distanced some if his fans? Idk tbh bt i think the overlap of Tom/Tomdaya fans might hav to due with mayb that, Z was more known during Spiderman+ a lot of her fans became his fans and i think hes one of the few young male celebs that seem to publically praise/admire his gf, and a lot of ppl really seem to lik that. I hav no doubt he will prob gain more solo fans when future projects come in

Thanks Anon for your Confession. :)

I understand that 100%. Did people have an issue with the TCR script? I felt that the script was just fine?? My only complaint was that it seemed to take a bit longer to get to the point, and it treated us as viewers like we were 5 years old lol (most of us figured out the twist by the end of episode 1, even if you don't follow Tom closely), but I didn't see anything wrong with the script.

To me, playing a role like Danny in TCR was actually a pretty complex role that has an actor playing like 5 different people....which, I felt that Tom executed beautifully btw. 😊

And the complaints with the script for some of his other projects like TDATT... I mean, Robert Pattinson was in the film as well.... Same with Bill Skarsgard. They're known to be decent actors. Why are their fans not harping on TDATT and how bad the script was? Why are THEY allowed to do TDATT and go on to do other projects without any complaint? Why is Tom always the one getting complained about? All of these actors are GOOD actors. Amanda Seyfriend was in TCR and she's also a good actress. Why is she not getting so much heat? Why is the pressure always on Tom?? 🤔 That's what I don't understand. I personally think fans are a bit too hard on Tom. Just let an actor be and do his/her job.... Not every project is going to be a blockbuster, or a "hit" with audiences... And you know what?? That's perfectly OKAY! Actors continue to act. 😊

Idk tbh bt i think the overlap of Tom/Tomdaya fans might hav to due with mayb that, Z was more known during Spiderman+ a lot of her fans became his fans and i think hes one of the few young male celebs that seem to publically praise/admire his gf, and a lot of ppl really seem to lik that.

I do feel that some fans of Tomdaya are just fans of Tom simply because Z is dating him, and they are just fans of whoever Z dates, as long as the guy treats her well. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I hav no doubt he will prob gain more solo fans when future projects come in

I hope so! 😊 This is just my personal opinion (of course), but I've been saying for a while now that I think Tom needs just a little bit of autonomy separating his career from his love life. We should be able to search for things on Tom and have plenty of Tom-solo content that doesn't have to be related to his gf (or gross, hypersexualized manips 🤮). I would be saying that no matter who he's dating.

It seems like for Tom however, they are inextricably linked, and imo that can be a BAD thing (in the long run) for a LOT of reasons. 🥴👀

At least with Zendaya, I feel like she has a separation of fans who are just fans of her and her work, and content isn't just about who she's dating/Tom, etc.... Idk if I'm making sense.

Only a select group of Draft employees had ever set foot inside Ellen Ford's office. Mostly because she was never there, and when she was, she liked to be left alone. It made being inside feel like you'd entered a forbidden realm; a place you'd been invited into, yet somehow still felt unwelcome in.

You'd been sat for the past hour in what was no doubt a very expensive armchair; soft velvet, mustard yellow, not a stain or a mark in sight. You wondered if she had special people who came in just to clean it, or if she simply never had guests long enough to leave a blemish. The more you looked around, the more you realised it wasn't just the chair. In fact, the entire office felt unused; while it was beautifully decorated with expensive pieces, luxurious textures and pops of rich colours, the carpet - like the chair you were sitting in - almost seemed like it had never been touched, and the shelves around you were meticulously organised with every issue of the magazine since its launch in the late 90's.

Ellen was sat opposite you behind her desk with her glasses on the end of her nose, deep burgundy nails flicking through the pages of your final draft, silent. Your leg was bouncing restlessly in time to the clock on the wall, the loud ticking providing the only sound besides the occasional flip of a page in her hand.

You looked around, trying your best to never let your eyes fall on her, your gaze finally settling on the large floor-to-ceiling window; the darkening sky, city lights springing to life below. It wasn't raining anymore. In fact, it hadn't rained at all since you left Ben's house that morning. The universe had finally stopped sulking, and you smiled to yourself at the thought.

The sound of Ellen clearing her throat stole you back into focus. You turned your head to see her nodding slightly, placing the printed proof of your feature on her desk and glancing up at you over her glasses.

"This is good work," she said simply.

"Thank you," you replied with a relieved exhale.

"You have a very distinctive voice in your writing. It works well for a piece like this."  

"Thank you."

"Most people get several weeks, if not months to write these things. So I appreciate your timeliness."

"Thank you," you said again, like a broken record, too taken aback to form any other words.

"How did you find it?" she asked, leaning back in her chair and pushing her glasses on top of her head.  

"Th-the interview?"

"Mhm."

"It was... A joy, really."

"I hear you and Benedict got along well."

Your stomach turned slightly. Did she know? Surely she didn't know. She couldn't possibly know.

"We did," you finally said, fiddling with the turtleneck of your jumper, making sure it was still covering the marks he'd left on your skin. "He was very gracious and... forthcoming with me."

"That's good," she said plainly. "Well thank you. I'll have this rushed over to his team for approval."

You nodded and stood up quickly, wasting no time in making your way towards the door.

"Quinn..." she called out, her smooth, elegant voice bringing you to a sudden halt.

"Yes?"

"I was made aware of the... issue regarding my former Editorial Assistant Daniel Swain."

Your heart sank, a shiver crawling up your spine at the mere mention of his name.

"I don't need to know what happened," she continued. "I just want to assure you it's been dealt with, and I hope that can be the end of it."

Though it was kind enough, there was something about the way she said it that provided no comfort. It was stern, intimidating, as if she wasn't reassuring you, but instead giving you a warning - 'you are to never speak of this again'.

"Y-yes," you said, your voice almost a whisper. "Of course."

You left the office like you were stepping out of an oven, closing the door quickly behind you and taking deep breaths as you fanned yourself with the empty folder in your hand. No one had ever intimidated you the way Ellen Ford did; it was as if she had some kind of supernatural ability, a way of reaching into your mind and taking every ounce of confidence from you, like a leech draining you of your blood.

The bullpen was quiet with only a handful of people still pottering around, usually the ones that had nowhere else to be at 6pm on a Friday. You wandered towards your desk, sitting down and beginning to pack everything into your bag when it suddenly dawned on you that you were one of those people. You had no plans, no missed calls or messages, not even a Tinder date or an old flame inviting you out for a drink. There was something vulnerable about it, like you were open, empty, on standby. You didn't like it.

You stuffed your laptop into your bag and stood up, throwing on your coat and letting out a huff before making your way towards one of the small conference rooms. Nick had been in there for most of the day, too busy arguing back and forth with Julia about his piece for the March issue to even say hello. You tapped your knuckles against the door and opened it immediately without waiting, Julia's voice becoming louder, clearer as you peered your head around the door.

"Sorry, can I just get Nick for one sec?" you interrupted.

They both glanced up at you blankly.

"I need your notes from the gala."

His eyes lit up, as if he'd forgotten everything about the night before until that very moment. He stood up and rummaged impatiently through his bag, taking out a notebook and hurrying towards you. You reached out to take it from him, but just as he was about to place it in your hand, he snatched it away again.

"We made a deal that you'd tell me where you went," he said quietly as he pulled the door closed behind him.

You furrowed your brow. "Er, no. No we did not..."

"Okay no we didn't. But I'm not giving you this book until you tell me."

You paused, chewing your lip as you looked up at him. "There was a family emergency."

He narrowed his eyes.

"My... grandmother got sick," you added.

"Oh how awful. Which one?"

"Well-"

"The one that died when you were fourteen? Or the one that died before you were even born?"

You paused, staring blankly at him, unwilling to recant your lie. "The first one..."

"Oh my god, Quinn," he whispered. "Why won't you just tell m-"

"Because..." You lowered your voice to a hiss. "Because I'm trying out this new thing where I actually give a shit about other people and their privacy."

"Ah, so you did go home with someone..."

"Nick."

He rolled his eyes, reluctantly handing over the notebook. "I'm going for a drink later with Lace if you want to come. We can celebrate you winning back the Cumberbatch feature."

You hummed softly, pressing your lips together. "I'll probably give it a miss."

"Why?"

"Just not really up for feeling like a third wheel tonight."

"Since when have you given a shit about that?"

You shrugged. "Since I had that... family emergency."

He paused for a moment, his expression softening in a slow realisation. "Okay," he said sceptically. "Call me if you change your mind."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

You weren't going to change your mind.

There was no way you could have possibly sat in Nick and Lacy's company all night and not mentioned Ben, or Faye, or any of it, especially not with alcohol slackening your tongue. It was a marvel to you that you'd managed to keep it to yourself at all; the urge to tell every single person you came into contact with so strong it was like a compulsion you were fighting to suppress. It wasn't that you wanted to brag, or gossip, or betray Ben's trust. You just wanted it to feel real; for it all to exist outside of your own mind, for it to be a solid, tangible moment instead of a wild, surreal memory.

You let yourself into your flat, locking the door behind you and throwing your bag to the ground. You closed your eyes and inhaled deeply through your nose before releasing a loud, frustrated groan into the air above you. You couldn't stop thinking about those final moments in Ben's house: You shook your head and marched around the side of the bed, crouching down to find your underwear in a ball on the floor. You grabbed them and stood up, placing them in Ben's hand with a wry smile.

"A souvenir," you said sarcastically.

He dropped his head and chuckled, running a thumb over the delicate lace. "I'll cherish them."

You laughed too as you walked to the other side of the room, checking yourself in a mirror that stood against the wall.

"Here's an idea," Ben said with a casual shrug, watching you as he remained sat at the end of the bed. "Why don't you just... come with me?"

"To America?" you scoffed.

"Yeah, why not."

You knew he was only joking. But perhaps there was an air of truth in it, a part of him that didn't want to part ways after only just getting his hands on you. You knew the feeling well, the thought of leaving creating a dull ache in the base of your chest; a longing that had no business being there.

"I can't," you said, rolling your eyes to hide your despondency. "I have to go to work and spend my whole day writing about you."

"You're so lucky."

You breathed out a laugh and turned to look at him. "And for some reason, you're unavoidable."

"I will be when I get back.” He stood up, making his way over to you. "So you better be waiting for me like you said you would."

"Hm, I give it a week before you forget all about me."

He furrowed his brow, a perplexed smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. "How on earth could I forget any of this?"

He snaked his arms around your waist, planting his large hands on your backside and pulling you close. You could feel his body hard against you; his arms, torso, groin, all firm like marble, yet warm and enticing. He leaned forward and pressed his lips to yours, his kiss so intoxicating you could feel the heady, beguiling fog beginning to seep into your mind, encompassing every rational thought in a cloud of desire and temptation.

He breathed out a soft growl and squeezed your bum, keen to finish what Faye had so coarsely interrupted earlier. You sighed against his lips, forcing yourself to break away.

"I have to go," you said.

He groaned, still holding you close. "Right this second?"

"Yes. Because you have to go and be a big celebrity or whatever it is you do over in La La Land, maybe take a minute to deal with the small issue of your very pissed off ex wife while you're at it. Meanwhile, I need to be right here in soggy London making your divorce sound totally amicable and not like the complete showbiz farce it really is."

"Lovely."

"And..." You rolled your eyes, yielding to sincerity. "If I let you get me back in that bed, I worry I might never make it to work."

He smirked. "Alright, fair enough," he said, giving in and letting you go.

As you sat alone in your flat, curled up on the couch, television playing quietly in the background, you were sorely regretting your decision to leave that morning. The memory of his hands slowly slipping away from your body had been tormenting you from the moment you walked out of his house, and now the only thing keeping you busy was gone; typed up and sitting on the edge of Ellen Ford's immaculate desk.

You glanced down to your coffee table, Nick's notebook catching your eye as it sat beside your laptop. You leaned forward and picked them both up, desperate for anything to keep your mind off how long the next two weeks were going to feel. You flipped the book open, flitting through the pages and skimming over his writing, the famous names and small notes he'd left in brackets and down the margins. He really was good at this, you thought, thank god you'd brought him with you.

You landed on a page that made your face flush, a name scrawled at the top like it was plaguing you, following you everywhere, even into the safety of your own home.

Faye Dennehy (Fashion Designer)

Thoughts on Gala: Loves it, always trying to be more conscious, esp as a designer. Great opportunity to give back & get ideas for making own label more sustainable.

Wearing: Own label (obv. what a surprise. She looks gorgeous though can't lie) SS 2021 collection - couture dress 'asymetric (sp?) gold filigree'.

You stopped reading, too distracted by the memory of her face as you tried to dab the champagne off her arm, the rings she still wore, the hurt as she stepped into Ben's bedroom, the shock in her eyes as she recognised you.

You flipped open your laptop and began to scour the internet, desperate to add weight to your theory, to prove she loved him. You began with pictures of them together, zooming in on the way he looked at her; so lovingly, convincingly. He would hold her hand on red carpets, speak quietly to her to make her laugh, put his arm around her as they walked through paparazzi. He was a good actor, you thought, so good that it was no wonder she fell for him.

Your attention slowly turned to pictures of him. Just him. The ever-changing cycle of hair colours, how his eyes always shifted hue in different lights, the lines in his face deepening slightly as the years passed. You found yourself reading things from other articles, from profound, insightful quotes to funny one-liners. You watched short clips of him in interviews, giggling along with his jokes and admiring how intelligent and charismatic he was. Your eyes zoned in on his hand as he scratched his face while answering a question, the hand that had touched every inch of you, the fingers you'd came around just last night. God, just last night. It hadn't even been 24 hours and you were pining over him like his biggest fan.

"What the hell have you done to me?" you muttered.

You clicked on a link to a gossip website, bringing you to an article that was published just one hour ago.  Your eyes narrowed, brow furrowing as you read it, partly in confusion, but mostly in absolute horror.

Does Benedict Cumberbatch Have a New Mystery Woman?

Just under two weeks after announcing his split from fashion designer Faye Dennehy, it seems the beloved actor Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange, Sherlock, The Imitation Game) may have already moved on. Although the couple released a joint statement claiming their decision to divorce was due to growing apart, rumours of infidelity quickly began to spread with neither parties confirming nor denying the accusations as of yet.

But just as speculation began to subside, an anonymous poster on Reddit uploaded a snap of what seems to be a mystery woman leaving Cumberbatch's residence just this morning. The now deleted post was accompanied by a caption which read: 'Taken this morning by a neighbour. Still think there was no cheating?'

The post garnered a wide range of responses. While some questioned the authenticity of the photograph, others chastised the neighbour in question for invading the actor's privacy. Many others saw the post as proof that there is more to the split than the couple have claimed and attempted to identify the woman despite her face not being fully visible.

Cumberbatch is believed to have landed in LA just hours ago to attend the Obel Awards. The actor arrived looking dapper in a Giorgio Armani suit, still sporting his wedding ring on his left hand along with a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch. But on his right wrist, eagle-eyed fans spotted something which may hold the key to Reddit's mystery woman.

While it has not been confirmed what the bracelet says, many believe it to be the name of the woman in question with some deciphering the visible letters to be 'Qui'.

Who is 'Qui'? Could she be the reason behind the sudden and unexpected divorce?

You felt sick, the giddiness of seeing Ben wearing your bracelet completely overshadowed by the dread of it ending up in the press. You put down your laptop and stood up, pacing your living room as the panic began to grow. In just a handful of days, your feature was going out to the world; your name would be in print beside his, two dots that the zealous online sleuths would no doubt connect eventually.

He's an idiot, you thought. Ben, you fucking stupid, sweet idiot.

You picked up your phone and dialled with shaking hands, bringing it to your ear as you continue to walk back and forth.

"Hi, have you changed your mind?" asked Nick, the distant sound of pub chatter behind him, as if he'd stepped outside to take your call.

"I may have lied to you today," you said.

He paused, and you knew it wasn't out of surprise, but instead preparation to hear whatever it was you were going to say.

"Go on," he finally said.

"I slept with Benedict Cumberbatch," you began, finally letting the words spill out of you freely. "His marriage was a PR stunt and I know that because I went snooping around his house and read his private emails and that's why he really kicked me out that night. But then I went over there drunk and he gave me a second chance and then Dan got fired and I ran into Ben last night at the gala and that's where I really went. His ex wife walked in on us having sex this morning and it was really fucking awkward but then I just... went into work like nothing happened and it's been such a weird day and Ellen Ford scares me, anyway now he's gone to America for two weeks and I don't even have his phone number so there is literally no way to talk to him while he's gone, I don't even know if I want to talk to him because then I'd be admitting I actually might like him a bit more than just sex which I absolutely do not want to do, also he's shaved off his beard and I don't know how to feel about it. Oh and I'm sort of scared his ex wife might try and have me killed or something, I know that seems farfetched but honestly I slept with the guy she pretended to love while also pretending she didn't love but clearly did fucking love, so anything's possible. And now the press are trying to track down this home wrecker called 'Qui' who apparently destroyed their marriage, but there isn't a home wrecker called Qui, it's just me, Quinn. Stupid, impulsive, thinks-with-her-imaginary-dick Quinn."

You took in a deep gasp of air, realising you'd practically reeled off the entire thing in one breath.

There was a long silence on the other line before Nick calmly cleared his throat. "I think you should come for that drink now."

(readmore cuts off here btw)

Sources + some other versions of my moodboards for the Bering&Wells meets S.H.I.E.L.D AU, plus a bit of background info! Made for the AU day of beringandwellsappreciationweek, thanks for the idea @galactic-pirates ! :D

I like the above one best because it's just aesthetically pleasing idk xD but it cuts through the w14 image in a kind of weird way because I used the long 1×3 pic on purpose for that so... Didn't turn out to be my final selection bc of that, but it gets the place of honour here!

A bit about the AU:

Honestly, I don't have any clear cut thoughts on this, just many ideas that even contradict each other in parts... Which is why I probably won't write an actual fic for this, but if someone else feels inspired by my idea, feel free to adopt it for yourself!

>>> I'm leaning towards it being a merge instead of a crossover, so warehouse personell in a Marvel-y world, not characters from both worlds. They're still Warehouse Agents, they just have the helicarrier instead of Univille! Or perhaps both, the 'carrier as a mobile unit and the Warehouse to store the masses of artefacts?

If we're vaguely replacing SHIELD characters with Warehouse ones, I think Artie would be the leader (Coulson), Claudia of course the hacker (Skye), Mrs F is Fury... that's where it stops making sense to replace anyone directly

Both Myka and HG work but don't really work as the the pilot and fighter (May), Helena because of Slightly Unhinged vibes, Myka because she could be reluctant to go back in the field after Sam dies on her watch, so she'd have that in common with May... H.G. of course works better as a scientist, but from characteristics she doesn't have a lot in common with the SHIELD ones

>>> On the other hand, a X-over would also be fun!

For starters, Mrs F and Fury and the Regents and the WSC just clashing adsfghjkl

Pete and Tony Stark either getting on great or absolutely despising each other!

Oh, and if we're rly making it Marvel/MCU with all the Avengers characters, Nat and Myka could exchange fighting tips, Clint would steal Helena's grappler to improve an arrow design...

Skye and Claudia would definitely take over the world via computer!

HG could meet Captain America, and bemoan the way they are lost in time together!

>>> Though that brings me to the question: are the Warehouse characters identical to canon, or do their backstories change? I don't want to take Helena's backstory away entirely, she wouldn't be herself if she was just a modern sci-fi woman without the jump forward in time. But maybe she is the equivalent of Captain America in this merge?

Also, I can't decide whether SHIELD should actually exist in some way, or just be replaced by the Warehouse... In canon, it more or less belongs to the FBI, so in this AU the Warehouse could be an even more secret division of the already super secret S.H.I.E.L.D. agency xD

>>> The helicarrier is also definitely problematic (not going into how MCU is problematic in so many ways anyway, bc then we'd still be here tomorrow lol), and I can see the Warehouse regents misusing that power, and that leading to conflict...

More moodboard variants:

This one I also like, kind of more grunge, dark aesthetic... Looks less techy and more like a steampunk-y sci-fi world still in the dangers of an invasion imo

Also I hadn't turned Myka's image yet, and while the original with Maria Hill looks fine as is, somehow the manip just looks weird without tilting her more upright

Aaand a long one:

I love how NMJ haters ignore the fact that I’m the last moments of his life when he realizes JGY is about to wipe out his entire sect, the head of the Tingshan He sect sort of invokes his name as a possible source of protection the lesser sects have against JGY’s tyranny, and the one they could count on to avenge them.

Villainous Friends is such a great extra chapter that I'm kind of insulted on Jin Guangyao's behalf when it's overlooked.

The reaction we get from He Su invoking Nie Mingjue's name is rather interesting:

Hearing him mention Nie Mingjue, Jin Guangyao raised his brows. Xue Yang laughed so hard he was about to flop over his chair. Jin Guangyao gave him a look before he turned around and replied calmly, "That's not the way to go about things, is it?" (ERS, ch. 118)

Xue Yang is going to bust a lung and Jin Guangyao is, at best, simply surprised. There is no hint of fear or worry here! And then Jin Guangyao proceeds to spin the twisted story that's going to the presses in the morning of how the Young Master tried to assassinate Sect Leader Jin and then the rest of his sect retaliated against Koi Tower's conviction, thus all of them deserving execution.

Jin Guangyao spins a story that even the likes of Nie Mingjue wouldn't be able to argue against, because he's left out crucial details.

He Su, "Utterly nonsense! Open your eyes and fucking look! There are nine-year-old children here! Old men who can't even walk!" (ch. 118)

Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

Jiang Cheng mocked, "Those sect leaders thought you gathered some leftover forces and crowned yourself king of the hill. So it's only the old, the weak, the women, and the children." (ch. 73)

And we all know the Jin and Jin Guangyao get away with leading both these massacres.

Although a really neat aspect of this scene is how even when Jin Guangyao holds a person's life and death in his hands, he still can't command their respect or fear.

Knowing he'd undoubtedly die, He Su was brimming with dread. Clenching his teeth, he roared, "Jin Guangyao! You'll receive retribution! [Your] dad is gonna die among prostitutes sooner or later, and you wouldn't meet a pleasant end either, you son of a prostitute!!!" (ch. 118)

It's a little like

Sword in his hand, [Meng Yao] stood amid a pool of blood, the corpses of two white-robed cultivators at his feet. He asked, still smiling, "Does anyone else want to say the word?" Nie Mingjue replied coldly, "Wen-dog." He knew that only death awaited him now that he was in Wen Ruohan's hands, which was why he didn't fear anything. If Wei Wuxian were the one in such a situation, he would've also cursed as awfully as he wanted to before doing anything else--he'd die no matter what. Despite this, Meng Yao only smiled, not at all angered. (ch. 49)

And also like

Looking down, Nie Mingjue shouted, "It's no wonder, coming from the son of a prostitute." … [Lan Xichen], "What happened this time?" Jin Guangyao, "Nothing. Brother, thank you for your advice." Nie Mingjue, "Don't hinder me!" Lan Xichen, "Brother, sheath your saber first--your mind is in turmoil!" Nie Mingjue, "I am not. I know what I'm doing. He's beyond hope. If these keeps on going, he'll do the world harm for sure. The earlier he's killed, the earlier we can relax!" (ch. 49)

Which is all rather clearly spoken by someone who is not relaxed and is feeling very threatened by Jin Guangyao.

Jin Guangyao was almost sobbing, "If [Nie Mingjue] could say such a thing when he was angry, then just how does he think of me on a daily basis? Is it that because I couldn't choose my background, because my mother couldn't choose her fate, I'll have to be humiliated by others throughout my whole life? If so, then how is Brother different from the people who look down on me? No matter what I do, in the end, just a sentence and I'm 'the son of a prostitute.'" (ch. 50)

Let's be honest, it's very funny for him to say 'no matter what I do they call me names' when the thing he is doing most often involves manipulating, torturing, threatening, and straight-up murdering people in cold blood.

[He Su] stammered for a while before eventually caving in, "I… I don't even know what happened, I don't even know!" Yet, at such a place, nobody would listen to his protests. Sitting before him were two villains who already treated him as though he were dead. What they enjoyed was precisely his dying struggle. Smiling, Jin Guangyao leaned back, waving his hand, "Hush him up, hush him up." (ch. 118)

Hush him up, hush him up! The only one who deserves to be heard and receive pity is Jin Guangyao, of course! /s

I completely agree with this pool headcanon for sure, honestly, it really makes sense considering it's so easy to be swept out to sea. There is actually a fic where they find a pool-like part of Atlantis. Weir makes swimming compulsory and they hold the tests there.

100% Radek would need to be bribed with said things, I can see him standing ankle-deep in water refusing to move another inch, shaking his head back and forth like a child. XD But Chuck's there being so patient and reassuring.

Hmm… You're probably right about the painting. Radek might be into sculpture more than painting. Ooo, metal sculpture!

If they didn't make workshops, do sports, or do music I would be so disappointed. So they must! I feel like this is something Teyla would be in charge of or at least heavily involved in.

Hmm… Athosian kids as scouts? But not exactly scouts, instead they get assigned to different science departments. Kids who are interested in plants would go to botany, etc. Jinto would sign up for sure. They could wear little Atlantis uniforms. Also, a little league football team with John as the coach, and he's in the shorts with the whistle and everything. 🤣 Maybe they even have little jerseys and the kids have the pegasus symbol on them.

I read a fic where Rodney and John set up a huge ongoing laser tag battle, which I thought was a great idea.

Our fandom community has made Atlantis even more beautiful. 🧡

I had a bit of a laughing fit last night when i first read this, especially about the part where Radek is "ankle-deep in water" and refusing to move! That is hilarious and i can absolutely see that! I now need fanart or a manip of that, it's amazing <3

Metal sculpture! I would still be a bit scared that he would hurt himself though...

Teyla would absolutely be involved with both giving and attending workshops! It's been already been established that she's teaching martial arts/banto fighting/self defence... so she will definitely be teaching that. Also meditation.

I have a headcanon that she tried to get Elizabeth to meditate because lord knows my girl needs to relax and forget about all the shit going on, and she tries, of course, but it just doesn't work for her. They still end up spending time together but while Teyla meditates, Elizabeth reads. They both just enjoy each other's company and it's mutually calming, no matter what they are doing. and no, i won't shut up about them.

Teyla probably also teaches singing. She's a multitalent and she loves sharing it with others!

ATHOSIAN KIDS IN SMOL ATLANTIS UNIFORMS JOINING THE DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS???? HOW CUTE IS THAT??????

Jinto wants to do an internship on AR-1 (you know he idolizes John) and it takes a lot of convincing that this might not be the best idea.

I kinda imagine this "athosian kids on atlantis" like David Hewlett's Techbandits? A bunch of excited scientists working with a bunch of excited kids? what could go wrong... xD

love love love all that! thank you ship anon <3

Some personal shit that I need to get out, don't mind me.

I had a pretty rough night, freaked out over something stupid as usual, and the article added to my overall dark mood. But I kept on keeping on, reblogging posts, supporting them the way I can. Reminding myself really, why I'm here.

Didn't sleep well though.

This morning, woke up to a msg from my sister who lives halfway across the world, asking What do you think about the Armie Hammer situ?

Now, when she was here, I mentioned cmbyn a couple times, how it's my favourite movie on one of our road trips. But other than that, she doesn't know who Armie Hammer is.

All I could reply back though, is he hasn't been charged and I believe he's innocent until proven guilty. I felt like a robot saying it, but I couldn't go beyond that. Because I know her, she means well, but it takes too much to convince her of anything different once she's made her mind up.

Her reply?

So you just want to keep watching “Call me by your name”

With a clear mind...got it! 😜

That was hard to swallow. I wanted to say no, that's not it at all. In fact, I haven't seen the movie in a while, but even looking at gifs all day for the movie makes me both nostalgic and melancholy. It won't ever be like the first time I watched it in theatre, because for me, it will always link with Armie and Timmy. The movie means way more to me as a result. A clear mind isn't possible.

But it's still my favourite and I don't see that changing. As Armie said, love is a great motivater, and the story of Elio and Oliver, has often reminded me that love can be pure, beautiful, messy and heartbreaking. And we're lesser people without it. I fell in love with their story first. But what motivates me as I write this is the real life love of two people I adore, two very good people, and no matter what happens or what anyone says, I will never regret supporting them, even for a second.

Then she called me as she walked home, slightly drunk, so that I can keep her company. I stayed on the line so she can feel safe.

Apparently she was at a bar with her buddy, who she felt the need to say is gay, and he loves the movie but told her about the scandal.

She went on to describe Armie as an entitled, rapist cannibal. Now her and my other sister, swallow every PR shit out there, but this.. was from word of mouth. And I swear I felt like she punched me in the stomach. But I couldn't hang up. She reminded me that a good majority of ppl out there, believe every lie they're sold. Her buddy believed it and so does she.

I wish I was the sort of person to defend Armie irl, but I tend to compartmentalize. Only two ppl know of my fandom, my former roommate and best friend, my other sister.

My best friend used to check up on me, asked if I wanted to talk, but he doesn't anymore because I'm extremely private when it comes to this.

Only among you do I feel safe enough to share. We've been through it together, we have the same shared experience. And you have no idea how appreciative I am that you're still here. I may not talk to you, but I hear you, and your voice gives me strength.

And if you read thru this, I want to say thank you. Thank you for reblogging, for the manips, for the jokes, for the art, for looking at all the facts and picking apart the lies, for all the words of hope and support. Keep doing what you're doing until you can't. It's that simple. But if anything were to change, your time here wasn't wasted. I'm sure of that. When I'm here on this app, I'm not alone. And it's because of you.

I believe in them, I believe in him and I believe in us. EGBA.

Reading Teen Titans (2003), the "One year later". Unlike other stories, I love that it's told through Vic's perspective. He's as clueless as we are, so he's a great focal point for the issue.

And god, can you imagine being him; just - waking up from what is an equivalent to coma, and finding all those new people in your kitchen, and when you're trying to find out where your actual friends are - they're dead or gone. He's just. Listing them one by one. And nobody's there.

This is also the first issue I read with a modern version of Eddie. He's very tall now. And has the coolest hair. I wholly approve of this character design. And also petition to add Eddie to the list of Jason's long silver haired exes or future partners (Rose, Essence).

I like this Wonder Girl design, too. Like Superboy's, her costume is simple: jeans and a T-shirt with the thingy. Imagine Robin in just some pants and a simple green t-shirt that says: "Robin". I think they should have stuck to the theme for all of them.

Gemini, on the other hand, is ugh. Is it "evil is sexy" trope? I never really understood why would anyone have a suit that leaves a lot of skin open to weather, unless you can regulate temperature of your body to not be affected.

Back to Vic: I get it, I get it. But his "They're not the Titans", and Tim's response "I know, but it's the best we can do for now" fucking hurts. Petition for Eddie and Rose to fuck off into sunset and make their own team. What makes them not Titans? They're not good enough? I'm sorry, were the Teen Titans Vic knew just good naturally, from birth, or were they allowed to develop with experience? Look, I know how Eddie is going to die, so this is just.

Okay. So. Rose. I mean. Why. Was Lobdell writing this issue? No, it's Johns, I just checked. Would love to hear his rationale on this. Because I know he could be, like, not a creep - he's the showrunner for Stargirl, right? And it's pretty much perfect! The best superhero show currently running and the best teen superhero show, period.

Also a question: Why Tim has those weird manips of hero&sidekick pairs on the wall, and why he didn't put any effort into Eddie's?

Was naked Rose a collective hallucination between Tim and Eddie, because the boys left TIm's room earlier, leaving Rose behind - and she would have to go get her gear and sword, get it all on, and still find and attack Cassie in the kitchen (which I guess shares the wall with Tim's room) before Eddie and Tim even could see Cassie.

Oh, okay. So Vic is - he's dealing with a lot, but. Honestly, he's such an asshole to those kids. And Wonder Girl, and Robin, to be honest. I mean, I know that everyone is dealing with a lot. They are still assholes! Vic went to talk with Cassie and Tim alone, and they're not even addressing how fucked up the dynamic between her and Rose is. They're talking about Brotherhood of Evil's plans, which, I would argue, is something Rose and Eddie need to listen in too, if not directly contribute anything.

Seem strange that Nightwing isn't involved in taking Brotherhood of Evil down, since they're still wanted for nuking Bludhaven and all. I mean. You would think he would want to do that, instead of moving to New York. Or... did he move to New York because that's where Brotherhood is? Hey, I'm reading this for the first time, so I am really clueless here.

My Brain/Monsieur Mallah feels are up again. I never ship villains together, not even Harley/Ivy (I mean, they're a canonical pair, but I could be bothered), but this one. Just imagine, that when Brain is talking about what he's going to do after he's back in a body - besides having a romantic stroll in Paris with Mallah - is not about revenge at all.

Since Superboy died, they've gone through over 20 members, apparently, but "no one wanted to stay for long, no one got along..." Gee, Cassie, I wonder why.

Okay, so, good choice including Doom Patrol here. However dysfunctional Teen Titans are at the moment, Doom Patrol is just fucked up. Well, Chief is fucked up. Robin overheard Chief talking down to Rita, and you should have seen his ohuyevayusheye face. First moment in those several issues that I can relate to Tim.

You notice how carefully I am not commenting on Eddie? Yeah. That's. His chest was ripped open, he would have died basically, if not for Doom Patrol showing up in a nick of time. And. The call from Blue Devil. This can't be good.

And then the reveal. Ouch. That fucking hurt. Turns out, the calls he complained to Rose about? Non-existent. Blue Devil didn't talk to him for two years. Which - I suppose I should have known. I knew that Eddie found out about Blue Devil being responsible for aunt Marla's death pretty much right after Neron activated his meta gene. But Eddie was constantly going on and on, Blue Devil says this, Blue Devil says that. He fooled me just as the rest of Titans.

Tim briefly redeems himself by confronting Chief. And then, when they are in Paris, Tim fucks off to figure out the missing piece for his cloning project. Yeah. No.

Ok, I need to take a break here because I'm literally falling asleep.

content creator appreciation! list five favorite sets you’ve made and send this ask to five other content creators 💖 (no pressure if you don't want to do it or have done this already 😘)

jane🌻 your talent is 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼

Oh! Thank you so much!!😭😭

Okay so this is only stuff from this year. I've been on tumblr forever and I still like my older edits (and apparently there's over 900 of them now I mean what??) but they feel kind of... removed from me now idk.

These are not your memories | White & Black | Not Me | I almost used "All the best memories are [his]" for the text, which in retrospect would have hurt even more 🥴 I kind of want to print this out and hang it somewhere haha I love it so much.

The Hunger | ToddBlack | Not Me | The lyrics really make the gifset. I just put some frames together and listened to the song on repeat for a night.

This Tell The World I Love You gifset | I absolutely couldn't (and still can't ugh) wait to see this movie so I spent like, a whole day taking the trailer apart frame by frame and cropping out the hard subs and finding a colouring that fit the dark mood (I don't use fixed psds, I just adjust everything by hand every time like an idiot lmao). It doesn't look like much and it's a bit blurry but i really like it.

Tied to your Body | Big Dragon | This is super random but... I just think it's neat.

Dead Man's Suit | ToddBlack | Not Me | Ok so first of all, I'm in love with that shade of pink. Also, the third gif is more of a manip because in reality Todd and Black aren't standing a lot further apart. I thought of putting them even closer together but that didn't work with the text placement.

And also these: [x] [x] [x] [x] [x] & [x]

[softoreos]

zalex and the ending they deserved

+ this song is SO accurate with their dinamic

Sorry for being such a hardcore shipper but zalex deserved better and I needed to make that happen. And sorry if the manips are a kinda cringy or bad, but that's the best I could do in such a few days lol.

I totally understand that Zach can be straight and this kind of friendship obviously can happen between men without them being in a relationship or romantic interest in each other. And Zach reaction to Alex kiss was wonderful, he was very supportive and didn't make a big deal of it, eventhough his rejection. I don't want you to think that I'm mad just because they didn't make Zach gay or bi or pan or demi, etc LOL.

However, I still think making Zach totally straight felt kinda forced in his character, as well as making Alex ending falling in love with Charlie literally out of nowhere after all we saw in the previous seasons. Eventhough he said he was happy he didn't really seemed happy with Charlie as he is when he's with Zach. And Zach has always that sparkle in his eyes when he is with Alex, that makes me think that he actually feels something for him.

With that said, this is how (in my opinion) Zalex should've gone in season 4 and be endgame.

Zach should've been the one who calmed down Alex during the lockdown since it was him who was always there for him during his recovery and not Charlie, like, so random.

When Zach asked Alex why he was with him and not with Charlie, Alex should've stayed because he wanted to stay.

When Alex told Ani she saved his life more than anyone i got it, but Zach was there too and I really felt those words kinda went for him too(? since he literally saved his life so many times, including helping Alex to recover his normal life after he got brain damage.

Alex should've cared and helped Zach through his alcoholism problem as he did in the last episode but since the beginning, instead of telling him to stop being an asshole so many times.

Alex said he loves making crimes with Zach and he didn't want to leave him there. Both of them looked happy or at least having fun.

Sorry but I wanted a kiss generated by the adrenaline of the moment of be gays do crimes.

The vibe when they were on the boat saying "fuck it all" was really ... something. Besides the "that's what makes us free" out of context reminded me of Gallavich, you know, Mickey saying "what you and i have makes me free".

I think Zach would totally start a kiss with Alex.

Zach and Alex should've gotten high with each other.

Zach would definitely be stubborn to convince Alex to go to prom with him and wouldn't give up until he got it (without being cringy or creepy or extremely cheesy). I don't doubt that he would have been able to carry Alex (physically) to the party just to make him go.

Zach should've been the one who took Alex to prom because they deserve that dance since s02 when Zach teached Alex how to dance.

Zach should've been the boyfriend Alex presented to his family. I bet Zach would be so happy and the family would be very supportive, knowing in advance how caring and good he is with Alex.

I'm sure Zach would be the only one who could make Alex dance with his "Dempsey magic" dance power lol.

Zach didn't hesitate to blame himself for Bryce crime because even if he was in the "I don't give a shit" mood, I think he would do it anyways if he had to protect Alex.

Zach cares about Alex. No matter what.

Always.

Well they deserved to be in love.

End of story.

If you read ALL THIS I owe you my heart ❤️

hey, idk if you remember me but maybe last month i sent you an anon about feeling distant from my friend who has joined a new fandom and made new friends? anyway, i wanted to let you know that i talked to her about it. she was really surprised because she didn't see it as us growing distant. she reassured me that things will not change just because she's in a new fandom with new friends.(1/?)

and so far things have been okay with us. i tried to learn a little bit about her fandom, while she tried to put in more effort to the ones we were in together. but lately, i learned that she doesn't confide in my when she has bad days but instead, confides in her new anime friends. tbh i feel hurt that she'd do that. i know that those friends are in similar timezones with her so it's easier to talk (2/?)

but she told me that we are not just friends, we are best friends. but she didn't confide in me and went to them. i just feel hurt... and i feel jealous because she rubs it in my face by showing me the fanart she receives because her anime friends are popular on tiktok (so she's popular too by extension) and goes all "i have never gotten stuff made for me" when all these years i've wrote fics and made manips & moodboards for her and her fave (3/?)

she tries to get me "into" it by sharing links with me from her group's tiktok account, but i honestly can't because i just feel so fucking left out and hurt. she can tell something is off with me, but i don't want to tell her because she already knows that i feel insecure and distant. idk, i think our friendship has ran its course and she finally outgrew me. (end)

of course i remember you darling! i know what im gonna say really sucks, but the only way to solve this is to talk to her. she cant know how you feel if you dont tell her and shes probably not doing that on purpose. you should tell her that it hurts you that she doesnt confide in you anymore without putting pressure on her because obviously, its still her decision you know? and you can also tell her that you did write fics and all that for her and it hurt you when she said no one ever made stuff for her. its ok to say that and its ok to share your feelings. im not saying itll solve everything and that itll go back to how it used to be... because it probably never will. but that doesnt mean this friendship cant be saved, you know? of course it all depends of what you want.  also, if she said youre her best friend and it doesnt feel like it, maybe you two need to discuss the meaning of it? i know its not easy and i know it can be stressful to discuss that but communication is seriously the only real way to make things work in any type of relationship. even if your friendship is over (and im crossing my fingers its not darling), at least youll be able to tell her how you feel and she can tell you how she feels so all this doesnt end up being even more hurtful for both of you. good luck! i really hope everything works out.

Michael Clifford

"One of the best dates I've ever been on, there was this boys who I really liked, we went out to eat at this restaurant. it was super cute, we were really giggly and in the middle of the conversation he told me 'I really want to kiss you right now' so we just kissed and it was pretty magical". It is what Camila said about her most beautiful date.

But hey, I have a theories about the fact that they weren't dating. Maybe flirting but nothing much.

1) I know what you did last summer.

as you all know, Camila did a song with Shwan Mendes that she met while the Austin Mahone tour. They talked about the meanings of the lyrics and she said:

She said that she was talking to a guy that she liked and discovered that he was talking to her friends as well.

She didn't say that they were dating becaue they weren't. They were just flirting. This guy was a player. I think that it wasn't about Michael.

2) Texts.

As some of you may knows, Camila had some text with her friends leaked, but sorry for you guys, they are not real.

First, this is not a pics of Camila ( she doesn't have this mole and her nose doesn't seem like hers.)

Secondly, I'm pretty sure that she doesn't talk like this:

It's impossible. It's obviously a manip. I can't explain really how I know it but I know.

They supposedly broke up in May 2015.

3) Camila's first kiss

4) Only told the moon

She wrote the song after their "breakup"

They were on a date together.

They were giggling together.

They had something between them. (http://rant5sos.tumblr.com/post/137993728224/michael-and-camila-story )

Everything happened in the year when Camila wrote "Only told the moon"

My conclusion is that they weren't in couple. But, it is not her first kiss (I made a post about her first kiss) it must not be the one that she talked about in "Only told the moon".

In "Only told the moon" she is in love with this person and really miss them etc. I don't think that it would be him.

5) My theory about they love story

Micheal said that he had a crush on Camila.

1D helped them to talk to each other.

They started to being flirty with each other and kissed each other.

They probably hooked up together. (I hope they didn't but they do whatever they want with their body)

But, to me, she was in love with Lauren (OTTM) and probably, if she is truly lesbian, wanted to know if she was.

Maybe in IKWYDLS, she is really the "bad guy" and confronted her about Michael or She confronted Lauren about Lucy that came not a long time after publicly.

Everything is only MY supposition and that's why I'd like to know yours.

As some of you know I am one of the leaders on Supernatural Amino and the past weekend when we got the news we just couldn't get to make the usual weekend challenge. Here's what I wrote and partly how I reacted , I feel like the last things I wrote were like open letters towards y'all and I just hope that some words and to see the support and love in this family helps a little 

No weekend challenge this time. Here's why:

Hello y'all, this is Sam,

As some of you have noticed, this weekend we got no weekend challenge.

The truth is that the news hit us all so much we couldn't think of anything better than just letting people deal with it how they can, and we had to deal with that as well. Personally I still have not absorbed nor elaborated the informations about the end of the series next year, it's still far and we have a lot to enjoy and will have those moment forever, but still it hit me right in the guts. 

Supernatural means so much more than just a show, it's not just a way to spend time and entertain ourselves, it's not something that will pass, I know most of us know what I'm talking about and what the so family means, we will always care about the story, the cast and crew, the people, the other fellow fans. We do Because we are not just a fandom, we are a family. 

I see that some people tell others don't cry because it's over, smile and be happy because it happened. But I don't quite totally agree with that, I say both, I smile it happened (and it's still happening) and I am sad it's over (not yet!). All of it and even more because if there's something we learn from supernatural is that it's okay to be sad, it's okay to be angry, or numb, it's okay to have happiness and sadness and confusion because it's part of life and it's part of us, every emotion, everything we feel completes us, and above all. Over ? It will never really be over. This? This is real and will stay after the show stops airing new episodes, new stories, we have developed our owns too.

Some need to grief this huge mountain that just seems to have been fallen from the clear sky, unexpected somehow because as the show keeps kicking stronger every year and the fandom is of the most loyal I know, we didn't see that coming any time soon. 

 It happened,

and we all deal with it how we can,

  because it’s okay to feel how you feel, it’s okay to feel, period.

It helps to cry, scream, or simply talk,

It helps to paint, sketch, draw something

Write down thoughts or write fanfictions, imagines, shorts

It helps to make edits and photo manips, to play with colors and lights

It helps to roleplay and keep the flame alive

It helps to have someone reminding us to drink and sleep and eat, like the Winchesters too need to be reminded sometimes.

What I wanna say is, take your time, because it takes time, and it hurts like hell, it does, because it's real, because it reveals how true it all is and how deep it gets us, which is both getting us emotional and incredibly proud of being part of something this huge, worldwide connecting people and saving lives since 2005.

It is not the end, as the quote goes "nothing really ends, does it?" And it couldn't be more true.

What after the show ends? What do we do?

Basically, calling all fans!

Besides there's still plenty of time before supernatural closes, we do what we do best, we stand together, we keep doing what we've been doing, we keep create, support and share with the world everything we have learned and we will look forward to what else new we can discover and learn, one never stop learning, one never stop getting surprised by life, every single day is different and new even when it seems like the same, even when it seems too hard, we go through, even when we go down we fix the day and we keep fighting, because that's what we do. Our values, our hopes and wishes, won't ever get wiped out, by the way... As for glitter, good luck getting rid of us! 

So, I say we can do a few things:

1. We grief, take time off the media

2. We create something,

Draw, write, share what supernatural means to you, be part of the current fan-projects, because we all make this possible together with the heroes we look up to.

- Tweet your support and love, write a letter, tell us something about yourself, the THEM something about yourself and as it is painful for us it hurts more them than us, it is painful for everyone so lets give them the best thank you we can but not as ending, not as goodbye, but to celebrate every day the friendships, the family, the examples we carry on in life, To share that strength that is in our heart making us all fight harder for each other. We are not alone, they are not either, we will never be.

Either way, don't forget to drink, breathe, eat and sleep, I forgot most of this myself, and I keep reminding it trying to get it together.

So, just FYI, I submitted a wiki (on supernatural amino) that I did a while ago to keep all the fan projects together, you can  pin it and submit with this along to share and keep track of ideas and opportunities to partecipate and help bring these actions to reality

Fandom's Creations http://aminoapps.com/p/hyxnif

And here's a public chatroom for the projects, to discuss about things, ask questions if in doubt and none less be there to support one another 

> Say something nice and I'll write it down http://aminoapps.com/p/svh90q

Here are some projects I'm aware of: 

(if you know of projects going on please let me know, I’d love if we all manage to share anc connect!)

1. Fanbook/Album project

Fanbook project http://aminoapps.com/p/jul1yf organized by myself for the jibcon this may, I’ll be traveling to Rome in may 13 2019 carrying with me all the messages I can collect

reminder http://aminoapps.com/p/ojg11k for J2MA (Jared, Jensen, Misha and Alex) and all the rest of the cast and crew of supernatural (everyone involved) separately or in group

2. Scrapbooks, 4x j2ma http://aminoapps.com/p/2022dl A scrapbook for each of them separately, one for Jared, one for Misha, one for Jensen and one for Alex, this is not organized by me but by Ashlynn, an user on Supernatural Amino, the books will be sent.

3. Jason Manns/Louden Swain project http://aminoapps.com/p/4gp65n organized by a dear friend of mine @toastiel it’s on Tumblr too

4. Video project http://aminoapps.com/p/bqh707 organized by yet another member of the spn amino

I suggest that if you want to give a letter specifically to one of J2M (Jared Jensen and Misha) you can submit it to the scrapbooks, and yes you can send it for the fanbook/album too, which is something towards them and the rest of the cast, it can be a message not for one of them but all 3 together in one letter, you can also partecipate in both. I will.

Please consider to put some energy, to do something nice evening simple into the project for the Louden Swain as well as the others, as they are a strong part of this family and conventions.

Remember, this is not a challenge, this is not a goodbye, it's more like an event "event" like, today we write something about ourselves and what supernatural means for us and those around us, It's a "hey the news shocked me too" look around, look at everyone else, we are in this together, it's not the end, so lets remind ourselves how strong and real this is and how alive we are, lets share some of the best things that touched us through these years and kept us together, because I have the feeling supernatural, this, this is something that probably will endure forever.

This place... it's hard right now, everywhere I see people hurt, but it's my home, it's our home, we just need a little time

It will be fine, just carry on and keep fighting because you're not alone, and you are enough, so am I.

Let's be creative and put some color in the day

Of course you'll have time to make stuff, lets see what we can do

If have doubts please ask questions about it

If you need support and to talk please take a look at the AKF initiative and join one of the AKF support chats (AKF Initiative on Supernatural Amino)

Inquiries on WIPs, lore, and what to do with both

Hi!

I hope y'all are well! I didn't expect to make a journal today, but here I am! I do hope I get some answers because I do have some thoughts and questions.

word wall under the cut

First off, I've done a lot of proofreading and re-outlining lately.

How I keep coming up with ideas, I don't know. Why I can never sit down and write prose except for when I'm meant to be doing something else is even more unknown. But at least I'm thinking, I guess. I like what I'm pondering.  I have done some intensive writing, though.

I made a manip that's been done and in the queue for months, and I liked it so much that I've made a whole novella (novel?) idea for it. If I do it right, then I hope to get about twelve (12) parts from it - they're all now planned - of which I've completed seven. I'm closer to eight (8) than not, so that's good, right?

Since the pic is done and so is its relative part in the story, should I just release it/them, or should I wait until it's all done?

I've even made a Wattpad/book cover for it; that's how much I like what I'm doing.

Regarding Welcome Home, Sasha, specifically, it's been plotted for months, too. But I'm having some issues with writing an expository soliloquy, aka the explanation of what the fuck happened to Earth.

The actual information is cut-and-dry, but I don't know how to best frame it. I find Ki to be an analytical person - sensible for a scientist, I suppose - but with a flourish. Putting his brotherly, almost fatherly love of Sasha on top complicates things further since he wouldn't want to break his heart... and the answer will definitely bruise at the very least.

Luckily though, how he'll react and everything after that is as straightforward as an apocalypse can be. Will I ever write it, though?

I technically have three (3) or four (4) continuations to long fics, but I don't know why I'm not releasing them. I want to, yet I don't? Is this my mediocre perfectionism in action? Is this normal?

Syntrophy has changed in my head, like, four times, regarding the relationship between the two MCs. Their separate stories have maintained but not how they connect to each other.

I wish I was kidding. There's so much I've deleted.

I've been adding excerpts to my manips and making visuals to go with stories. Read more about that in the next section.

Secondly, I've been conceptualizing visuals like mad!

Ideas just keep coming, and they don't stop coming.

The queue is probably at peak fullness, which is cool. I was hoping I wouldn't have to widen time between posting stuff because as much as popularity doesn't affect whether I make something, I wouldn't want y'all to just forget about me. You know?

I know some people don't even have a schedule or set up expectations, so I might just say "Fuck it," and leave submission dates to RNG. It hasn't been a problem, but I don't want pressure from time restraints to become a problem. We'll see.

Like the unnamed, new fic way above, some of my ready works are images from tales not-yet-released. I've done that before numerous times, but one in particular literally happens in what would be the literal next part to post, and I'm not done with writing it, yet, at least to where I'd like it to be.

Should I post the pic anyway, despite context being right behind a corner? I kind of want to, but I've already been putting it off so much...

I just really need to get motivated and focus using Pomodoro or something. Maybe I'd knock everything out if I did.

My most recent completion from literally this morning might just be my favorite in all my years of manip-making.

Meanwhile, the one finished right before it might be the worst thing I've ever made, and its excerpt just makes it worse. I enjoyed it thoroughly, though, which makes me question myself as I'm seeing patterns...

I want to draw/paint again. I've done stuff for IRL projects but not size content.

I need inspiration to just sit down and pen for hours or days.

Would y'all mind me doing sketches again? That'd be quicker.

Lastly, the real reason why I chose to make a journal:

I'm really considering putting expanded, not-yet-seen lore for my stories on my blog site (on WordPress), and I feel like I've pondered this before.

As repeatedly mentioned, I have too many ideas but not even drive to collect them all into something worthwhile. But I'd like to get them out there somehow so others can indulge in my babies as much as I do. Some creators have blogs just for certain stories and their characters, settings, etc. that I adore, and I want to feel that in a way, too. However, most people don't have ten (10) or more stories at once that they equally love. Fuck, I need to edit my blog with more pages for more things I've conjured but isn't there, yet.

I feel that by doing so on my site,

People who do want to know how a plot of a tale will go, because I write as quickly as molasses runs yet have an outline for everything, can know.

It'll be organized as I see fit but my own control (unless WordPress does something drastic).

In addition, the data wouldn't be directly attached to the works on other sites like here, either, in case ideas change or people are averse to spoilers and want to stay away.

Reading all this over, couldn't I put the same data/lore in DA journals, Tumblr posts, etc., too, adding tags or titles to mark what's what? Couldn't I also put the works themselves that are here or even the damn music list on my site, too? Should I?

Am I overthinking this? I think I'm overthinking this.

That's it, I think.

Does any of this make sense? Please let me know your thoughts on anything but mostly the blog stuff if you can.

(I've also put this on DA if you'd prefer to respond there.)

Stay safe, and Happy Equinox! I'm glad I'll see flowers blooming again soon.

~J
