Could I ask for a mini ramble on why Keating is your favourite character? Poised with a notebook and pen to take down notes haha
YES!!!!!!!
BECAUSE NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT HIM AND THATS HONESTLY SO RUDE!!!!!!!
so like. keating; let's talk about that
Tumblr media
we desperately need to acknowledge that keating is an amazing man right down to his core. he is so passionate about living life in a way that makes him feel fulfilled that he makes it his main goal to teach others how to do the same.
he experienced the same exact thing as the poets, remember, the movie makes a big deal of how nothing at welton changes. he had the same exact oppressive environment growing up as they did, so he knew exactly how to connect to these boys.
HIS INTENTIONS AND ACTIONS WERE NOTHING BUT PURE, AND THATS WHAT MAKES HIS ENDING ALL THE MORE DEVASTATING.
every single one of his peers and superiors fully believed that neil's death was keatings fault, and actively shunned him for it. not a singular person that wasnt a Teenager in his community understood what he was trying to do. welton painted the narrative that keating taught these insane useless lessons about breaking the rules BUT NEED! I! REMIND! YOU! HE MADE A PRETTY BIG EMPHASIS ON THE FACT THAT U GOTTA BE SMART ABT IT! he called out charlie for the call from god thing for a reason!!
another crazy devastating thing abt keating + neils death is the fact that neil was understanding exactly what carpe diem mean's IMMEDIATELY. AND WAS ACTING ON IT!! he pursued things that he knew would make him happy and fulfilled in the long run, he knew what he wanted to do with his life and he took the first opportunity to get it. the exact fucking definition of seizing the day. keating was REACHING THIS KID SO WELL!! HE WAS UNDERSTANDING EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS SAYING!!! AND THEN!!! AND THEN!!!!!!!!!!
so imagine this. you grow up in the most rigid, boring, unchanging environment and decide fuck it, im gonna Do Something for Myself for Once. you start to think oh, this is actually kinda sick, doing things that make me happy. you escape the environment that aims to essentially make these Children into what their idea of successful is. (quick reminder that there are actual children also attending welton. like kids. like 9 year olds n shit.) you actually chase after every opportunity to be what your idea of successful is, and were so passionate about that way of living that you learned how to teach others how to do it. and also poetry and stuff.
so youre doing exactly that, you finally got to a point where youre doing exactly what you wanna do, and teaching these kids in a situation just like yours. and its going SO WELL! there's this one kid who just GETS IT and is doing it flawlessly and then - oh !
and now everyone around you is like um wtf this is your fault actually. SO YOU HAVE TO PROCESS THE FACT THAT YOUR STUDENT IS DEAD ON TOP OF HAVING TO RELIVE THE ENVIRONMENT YOU HATED AND ACTIVELY WORKED AGAINST YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. AND NOW YOU HAVE NO INCOME OR COMMUNITY OR HOME OR FRIENDS. AND THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT KNOW YOU ARENT A MURDERER ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 18. AND YOUR WIFE LIVES IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. OH AND ALSO YOUR RESUME IS RUINED AND ITLL PROBABLY BE PRETTY HARD TO FIND ANOTHER JOB IF YOU CAN AT ALL.
AND YOU HAVE CANCER. HE HAS CANCER IN THE OG SCRIPT.
keating is my personal description of raw devastation. all of who you are and what you wanted to be is in shambles because of something that isnt your fault. but almost everyone around you thinks it is your fault. and we're just gonna move on from that? thats it? thats the end of the story? no more keating after that?????? downright evil. more people gotta talk about this wonderful man!!!!!
also very sorry if this makes no sense, im quite high. but also shameless self promo pls interact with my ask blog @ask-captain-keating bc i lob running it. pleags. ily for asking this btw!!!!

literature obssessed reader × author minghao
Come see the screening.... 🎥📷
THIS IS SUCH A CUTE IDEA??? Hello oh my god
Reader would definitely be a big fan of Minghao's works, they've collected almost every series that Minghao has published. Including special limited edition books other collectors would KILL for.
I have a feeling minghao would hide his face, sure he'd attend a few interviews but the interviewer would only be able to hear his voice, this was intentional ofcourse. Minghao wanted to go out in peace, he never wants interviewers and paparazzi to swarm him whenever he stepped out of his house. It's annoying to him. He only revealed his face to trusted individuals like his publisher. Other than that almost no one has seen his face, But there are times where he has almost gotten caught due to his distinctive voice, but he just argued that he has a similar voice and swear he isn't him.
Reader and Minghao would definitely run into each other by accident, of course reader doesn't know shit and thinks is just some random person they bumped into well... " What's the rush? " Minghao asks.
" Oh! Haha there is this book sale and they're featuring one of my favorite authors LIMITED edition book! It's the last one I need and I would do anything to complete my collection... Plus I really adore the author! He's such a good writer, his poetry books are also so good. "
Minghao's raised an eyebrow, he seems intrigued. " So, What's this authors name? " he leaned down and grabbed your bag which you've dropped. " OH! His name is Xu Minghao! But, now checking the time I don't think I can make it in time... My best bets is that the book has already been grabbed.... Awh man "
Minghao was a bit shocked to hear his name mentioned, he feels a bit bad so he proposed an offer " Oh Xu Minghao? I have some extras of his limited edition collection, Which one are you missing I could lend it to you. "
You were shocked since literally people would pay THOUSANDS for this, and hes giving this for free? Jesus christ is he your lord and savior or something. You tried to refuse but minghao didn't budge, eventually you gave up. " Im the reason why you're late, this is my apology. " You were touched how he was this considerate for a stranger you just so happend to bump into. " You never told me your name by the way? Hehe but my names y/n. " Minghao stood there thinking if he should tell you... " Oh uh, my name? Its Seo myungho. "
" Seo myungho? I see, nice to meet you Myungho! " you would not suspect a thing.
You both spent a lot of time after that, half of your conversations were about Minghao... on the inside minghao is giggling whenever you mentioned him, like. His cheeks got a bit red but you didnt notice it. You were too busy rambling about minghao, but if your conversations weren't about minghao you'd genuinely enjoy talking with "myungho " it was always the highlight of your day
I mean you did find out eventually! Haha in the most embarrassing way ever tho... you and "myungho" were talking and suddenly the topic of minghao was mentioned again and he said " Oh yeah I... " I? Haha ur fucked now minghao. Your eyes widened when he said this, you just connected the dots... Bye this is so embarrassing all this time you've been ranting about minghao to minghao
Minghao eventually came clean and he did confess it but, he made it very sure that you wouldn't tell ANYONE about it, well maybe also minghao had a tiny bit of feelings for you but thats beside the point... he trusted you enough to keep this a secret and you swore you'd take this secret to the grave.
Minghaos "little crush" never left tho! He waited awhile before confessing, like maybe 5 months... you were a bit oblivious to his feelings but eventually you started to catch feelings too... the confession was so sweet tho, he took quotes from your favorite book of his. And made a little love letter, you cried on the spot and hugged him so tightly.
(This ws suppose to be a drabble but its so long LMAOAO)

replying to your tags bc :3 thank you for your thoughts they're tasty and im chewing on them
I didn't think too hard but omg yes if he's a delivery/cargo escort boy then he can reasonably meet xingqiu, delivering his family's silk shipments or smth, or moving some books from xingqiu's random warehouse in qingce lolllll i also agree they'd have similar food prefs !! i think gaming would enjoy xingqiu's crystal shrimp dumplings haha he seems the type to like fresher dishes that have less like heavy oil/seasoning
about your proposal of chongyun angst 👀 wwww if you care to elaborate i'm looking very hard, i need to see our boy put in Situations!! i wonder if they meet... would cy feel deficient seeing gaming get along so well w everyone whereas he has to try so hard to keep his condition under control which limits how much he can get excited n stuff T_T I hope gaming can help him w it though </3 after all they can be boyfailures together (/JJJJJJJJ) with gaming's rather... unsuccessful lion dance monetization and chongyun's problems with exorcisms
it just with how Ga-Ming is described it sounds very similar ,obviously I would rather they be friends first but if not the angst please.
So to add on ap, chongyun’s Yang state has a variation of responses, he has tame ones like in the poetry event those are fine. It’s the chaotic ones that are a problem “he chases people around, passed out,danced on top of furniture, broken furniture, and gotten injured and he sometimes doesn’t even remember himself being in Yang state.
and then when all is said and done he still get’s told that he’s entertainment(a sign in wangshu btw), that his Yang state is the real him and the fact that his friends always seem to be giving him chilis because they think that his Yang side is better for him.
Then here comes Ga-Ming he’s good at fighting , he can dance and perform all he wants, he’s happy and cheerful without consequences, he uses a claymore, he admires Xiao as well, he’s probably friends with his own friends.
a big slap in the face that tells him “ hey, you know that Yang side of you that causes you a lot of trouble personally, yeah well seems that they prefer you that way” and boom the angst
Now I obviously I don’t think chongyun’s friends are *that mean or that they even have bad intentions but it’s always personally bothered me the language they use around him and about him idk it always feels insensitive. Not only that but the disregard of his own feelings and boundaries always bothered me. Doesn’t help that his Yang and anything related to chilis is meant for jokes. But c’mon Xiangling’s job is literally a chef her whole job is meant to be making food, she can scold people for being picky but she sometimes puts chilis in her friends food even though he can pass out like where’s the logic. At least she makes him his popsicles. this includes hu Tao also like she is a prankster and all but she takes her job seriously and one of the things she has to do is keep the balance of yin and Yang so like you’d think she’d be like “hey my friend having a pure Yang body is probably not a good thing but nah let’s prank him even though he clearly doesn’t like)
like c’mon he’s just asking for no chilis in his food it’s not hard
anyway that’s my idea basically it can also happen the opposite way with Ga-Ming being a friend who does respect his boundaries(please just one friend) and still finds way to include him in events without triggering his Yang so Chongyun hangs out with him which leads to other’s self reflection. so yeah that’s all I have.
thank you for listening.

hiiii! this is my first ever ask so i have no idea what i’m doing😭
disregarding that, i’d like to ask for a twst or obey me match up! (whichever you see fit <3)
july cancer btw🫶
•my personality! i feel like i’m very confusing when it comes to personality. i tend to have multiple personas construed for various people. if i don’t know someone i tend to come off as very very polite and well mannered. however if i’ve known you for quite some time i become very comedic and albeit a bit childish.
i tend to shy away from big crowds as i’m easily overwhelmed. i’m also a majorrrrr people pleaser, almost to a fault. i’ve also been told i’m super duper flirty? which i hardly do on purpose.(i guess i compliment people a lot?)
•interests! i love watching anime and various kids cartoons. im extremely interested in science, specifically biological sciences. im an animal lover at heart (except bugs) i hate bugs😭i play a lot of video games, but not any high energy games that require too much focus. i like reading poetry and even dabble in the art myself! speaking of art, im a very artistic individual and love drawing and character design!
i believe that’s it! again im super duper sorry if i seem a bit awkward or like i don’t know what im doing. this is my first ever ask😭 love ya have a fantastic day/night🫶
Hey there! I hope you are doing well. This is my first time doing this as well haha. Have a good day/night/afternoon. Love you too!
I think you will be great with Idia Shroud or Leviathan
If you end up dating either of them then
Endless video games and mangas.
Hosting cosplays with Levi.
Buying limited edition figurines and stuff.
Ortho embarrassing the shit outta Idia in front of you.
Dragging him out of his room once in a while.
You are his favourite prefect/human bestie.
Will do anything for you even if it means socializing with 'normies'.

HI, I'm just wondering where you get your drabble prompts from? 3000+ works that's INSANE but where do you get the ideas? if they're just random word generators I've done that, but I don't know how you can write so much and Im wondering if you have like pages with good prompts? love your work sm
Hi, thanks!
The prompts I use really are just random words, tbh. I found an old database for the Oxoniensis fanfiction “Porn Battle” challenge from 2013, stripped the fandoms and pairings from the requests, searched and removed all of the duplicate prompts, and randomized the whole rest of the challenge prompts to come up with a list of 13,000+ prompts. Then I just chopped that humongo list down into 100-prompt lists that I keep in an Excel file. I've got enough 100-prompt lists in there to last me YEARS, even if I were still writing at the pace that I was in 2022 (maybe soon. Hopefully soon).
I have noticed that there are some duplicate words that Excel missed stripping because of US versus UK spelling (or typos) but that’s OK. :) I just swap the duplicate word out of the list with something on my desk, usually -- which is why there are prompts for, like, "paint" and "seltzer" and "thread," haha.
I have put a couple of list tables up on my Tumblr on this page, so as long as you credit where you found them (because it did take time to strip, organize, and randomize the lists) you’re free to use them!
As for connecting the random word to an idea -- that's why it's helpful to have people request a pairing with the prompt, and it's SUPER helpful to have a really wide array of pairings/fandoms I'll write. I think if I tried to fill every prompt with the same pairing, I would run out of steam really quickly.
I also like to take prompts in the least expected direction that I can a lot of the time, which is why prompts like "domme" or "finger" will be totally gen, and something LIKE "paint" or "thread" might be smutty. Or if a word has multiple definitions, I try to use one of the less-common ones. I also, personally, try to come up with ideas that are canon-compliant or canon-adjacent as much as I possibly can because that's the kind of fic I prefer, and I think having that boundary helps me to come up with ideas, too. Like how would "seltzer" fit into the actual canon for Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, or Marvel, or Star Wars, or whatever? Sometimes that takes a little research to answer, and then that births an idea.
I like drabbles, one-word prompts, and canonfic all because they are boundaries and formats that help me, personally, come up with ideas more easily. I think if I tried to open up those boundaries and just write ANYTHING I WANTED I would freeze up and not be able to write anything at all. (Which is why I'm the world's slowest longfic writer, haha.)
I am a big fan of writing to formats and with boundaries of the form. I think it definitely helps get ideas flowing if you know that you only have a certain amount of room to fill. This is why I don't understand free-verse poetry.

How do you write so well? I also want to write and find my own style but i always end up deleting my works because I can't bring myself to like them. They are too simple or too repetitive. It would be great if you could offer me some advice. (If you don't mind.)
hey anon! thanks for reaching out, hm...honestly, i struggle with liking my own work too, i guess we're all our own biggest critics :( and i can only speak from my own experience so my word isn't law haha but ive compiled some of my thoughts on this + some citations i think could help add perspective:
read as much as you can and study the writing you like: goes a very long way. if you like distinctive styles of writing like with prose and such then find writers who are known for that, off the top of my head—proust, joyce, brontë, tolstoy, cervantes, etc etc. but always explore, read non-fiction, read a script, read poetry. analyze themes, characters, dialogue ...or don’t? sometimes reading is an experience, not mental gymnastics, but take in how you feel about the stuff you read and digest them. 
“The first, of course, is to read. It’s surprising how many people think they want to be writers but they don’t really like to read books… — From 'This is Octavia Butler’s best writing advice.' by Vanessa Willoughby. Read on LitHub / 'An Interview with Octavia E. Butler' by Randall Kenan. Read on JSTOR "You need to study what writing requires. Writing has rules, conventions, requirements. There is form. Writing is more than your thoughts about characters. Drama has structure. You can learn." — Excerpted from Miss Chloe: A Memoir of a Literary Friendship with Toni Morrison by A. J. Verdelle. Read on LitHub
observe: listen to conversations around you, the way people talk and react to things, the way they interact with one another. expressing and repressing. or watch films, what do images and scenes look like in your mind. i learned a lot about transitions and flow from movies. take things from the world around you. find what inspires you to write? i usually listen to music!
characters: if writing fanfic is your thing then take the time to think about the characters, their motives, desires, weaknesses, etc etc. read the source material or read hcs and form your own opinion.
"Events, in and of themselves, have no meaning. Lightning striking a vacant lot is pointless; lightning striking a vagrant matters. When an event adds a character, suddenly nature’s indifference fills with life." — Excerpted from CHARACTER: The Art of Role and Cast Design for Page, Stage, and Screen by Robert McKee. Read on LitHub (read this once for a creative writing class and thought it was really helpful)
it’s all in the little things: have fun with the details, think about the way a room is lit in the afternoon, or the way a ripe mandarin orange tastes, smells, you could also describe it in action—citrus and pulp and a zesty rind that spits from beneath your fingernails—fill in the blanks with texture and colour and give them a life of their own.
"If you are going to describe a spoon or a chair or a tv set, you don’t want to simply set these things into the scene and let them go. You want to give them some weight, connecting these things to the lives around them." — From 'An Interview with Raymond Carver' by  Larry McCaffery and Sinda Gregory, 1985. Read on JSTOR. (finding the balance between vomiting out descriptions and knowing when to leave things as they are is a struggle for me haha, i get caught up way too much on crafting atmosphere when all the scene calls for is like a sentence or two... i guess its about knowing which is more important, keeping in mind pacing and such too. but im a big believer in instinct, you’ll know whats better for a scene when you read it like fifty times and think... 'maybe geto’s internal monologue and a valid ‘heart beating wildly in his chest’ is enough..’) <3
re: writing styles: ultimately has to do with your personality and how you see the world/the scene you're conveying to an audience. i suppose style stems from the way you weave and thread words together, how you place one word after the other. i think it’ll come to you the more you write, rather than aiming for style, start with the story and the way you look at things.
A unique and exact way of looking at things, and finding the right context for expressing that way of looking, that’s something else. . . . Every great, or even every very good writer, makes the world over according to his own specifications. It’s akin to style,... but it isn’t style alone. It is the writer’s particular and unmistakable signature on everything he writes. It is his world and no other. This is one of the things that distinguishes one writer from another. — From “A Storyteller’s Shoptalk,” by Raymond Carver published in The New York Times in 1981.
let your writing be something else, just not yours (in the best sense): sometimes the hardest thing is knowing that your writing will forever be tied to you, there’s a sense of ownership there, like a mother who’s birthed a child after a whole nine months, you’ll work on something for the longest time and not want to give it to anyone, but it has to sort of...get out there. and not every piece of writing will be a precious baby, sometimes it’s just an onion in your garden you found and thought to use in a stew, but the point is that eventually, it’ll belong to the world should you choose to post it. letting it go is catharsis. when i don’t have to look back on it, i can just write the next thing. even if you don’t intend on posting it, i find that i could always just leave things in the drafts, in a document folder, in scraps of paper, and move on to the next thing. i know i can always come back to it. 
i guess...you just have to write? one word after the next until you’ve filled up a page or more. the difference between crafting a beautiful sentence you’re satisfied with and a repetitive, simple one is a whole lot of trial and error + practice (and suffering).
“The only sentence that matters is the one you’re writing.” Do not look ahead two or three sentences, thinking, Oh, but wait, I have to get through two or three more of these sentences before I can get to the really good stuff. Make the sentence you are at the place you are at, and make it a place of stone and steel, not a place of sand and clay. Fashion this sentence out of what has gone before on your page, always moving forward by looking back. Turn, swerve, torque and twist upon what you have written, finding new ways to render your object, and through these maneuvers, finding the way to write your heart out. — From 'The Gordon Lish Notes' by Tetman Callis. Read here.
eventually, you’ll look at the stuff you hate and find ways to make it better, and even then maybe you won’t be completely happy with it but i think it’s important to note that it’s a rather harrowing thing because you’re staring at it wondering if it’s something to be shared...that’s a lot. ultimately i feel it’s perfectly fine to write because you enjoy it, of course, some might say it doesn’t have to be perfect, but because you want it to be good, there needs to be a sense of care and responsibility to make it so. 
You write as well as you can and hope for good readers. But I think you’re also writing for other writers to an extent—the dead writers whose work you admire, as well as the living writers you like to read. If they like it, the other writers, there’s a good chance other “intelligent, adult men and women” may like it, too. — From 'Raymond Carver, The Art of Fiction No. 76' by Mona Simpson & Lewis Buzbee for The Paris Review
sending you love and cheering you on! i hope you find this helpful in some way!

Hi Wil, Its kinda weird being somewhere youre not. I cant just follow you around anymore. I don't really like it. People expect me to know what's up- Man, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast this morning. Kinda miss when the biggest thing I had to worry about was whether it was raining or not. I live on a Farm now. Loads of grass n shit. There's Cows too- Brown ones. Theyre weird cows, apparently you can't milk them. Whats the point?? Oh, and I saw a horse the other day. Kinda reminded me of Carl. Lad wasn't very happy about his stable. Apparently theres sheep and chickens too- I haven't seen em though. Sometimes people ride their horses past the house. I like to take pictures, keep track of the regulars. I like to give em names. Its the exact sort of place youd like. Loads of places you can sit and look mysterious with your guitar. I miss hearing you play. I recently picked up that small guitar Tubbs used to play- the ukelele?? I get why you like it so much now, it is fun to just..make noise. Makes people look at you. Usually people just get annoyed- ''Its 6 am Tom, why are you making such a racket-mimimi'' I woke them up with a song!! They should be grateful! You were always the people person out of the two of us though. I just seem to make a lot of people upset with me. Oh well
It was easier when I had you to back me up. Maybe I should channel my Inner-Wilbur some more. I should start shouting poetry or some shit. Sprinkle in some Long words. Im Wilba soot, Great Leader and giant Know-it-all!! Haha. I hope Everyone is Okay. I miss you, King. From the BEST Brother in the Whole World EVER, - Tommy Big Man Innit (Fictive) (Hope its Cool if I claim🌞☁️ as an Emoji tag?)

#h talks.#oc: zoe huang#xingchen doesnt have a tag YET bc im figuring out their clan name atm and im not one hundred percent comfy w it so#we will suffer#but im currently like 👁👄👁 bc. i. um. well bc of the potential for metaphors okay#zoe is my sunshine girl yeah & when xingchen looks at zoe she's still impossibly bright but she's still this. grounding force#xingchen may be the star they may be the one with star in their name and they may be resplendent and literally so physically gorgeous#that other people on youxiong wax poetry about their looks#but xingchen feels as though they wouldnt mind revolving around zoe if it meant being w her all the time and seeing her smile#AND LONG STORY FUCKING SHORT XINGCHEN IS A BIG SAP OKAY THEY'RE OOEY GOOEY AND GROSS AND THEY#GET ALL POUTY AND SOFT WHEN THEY THINK ABOUT ZOE WHEN THEY'RE ALONE AND IF ANYONE SAW THEM - NO U DIDNT F U C K O F F !!!#& zoe. ugh zoe. zoe doesnt feel like she's good enough for xingchen. she's really like haha! keme ur so funny!! xingchen?? FEELINGS for ME?!#BAD ONES xingchen wants to KILL me those r the ONLY feelings xingchen has towards me keme haha stupid#[cue keme staring into the camera]#anyway long story short zoe is xingchen's whole world and xingchen is zoe's star and i. am not okay w this 4 am revelation#nuh uh nope#it's not that big a deal but like u know. the potential now is. devastating to think about#like obviously i named xingchen stardust bc one. i liked the name. two. four stars in the solar system & they r v important on youxiong#so why WOULDNT u name ur child after the stars u know? like it makes sense it's good luck#and like i already 🤝 zoe w the sun when she was ON EARTH specifically bc of her big personality but when she goes to youxiong#she is very notably. TERRAN. like. no amount of court etiquette training and stuff can get rid of that#she's still v much kanti's granddaughter and kya's daughter. a child of EARTH. who gets her hands dirty in the mud outside of the sect walls#bc it was raining & LOOK xingchen i found some worms that we can use to go fishing with isnt that great! haha. i've been DYING for some meat#like zoe even has to get used to going by her birth name again instead of 'zoe'#IM JUST!!!

what do you think brahms + loud n vincent + jonesy encounter would b like tho????? i know they're incredibly different from one another, personality + location wise, but like, i like to think that brahms would end up falling into vin's influence of music bcs of the whole "metal and classical music have a lot in common and their listeners as well" thing
O-oh........ anon u are BRILLIANT iLOV U..... PLUS.... THESE TWO, very two big fluffy cozy sweater men, hanging out, being fuzzy and good, beautiful!!!! Yes. I'm absolutely in love w this idea.
To me they're both a little socially awkward, (at least a little) (I don't think that it's a surprise when it comes to Brahms) (but I also see Vincent as socially incompitent when he isn't more relaxed / in his natural enviroment). Which is honestly a very fun dynamic !!! Vincent being the slightly more compitent one trying to bring in normalcy and Brahms being the slightly more awkward but also restrained one?
(Kinda similiar to what I'm talking abt w Nubbins & Vincent, expect Nubbins would be the type to bring full chaos, Brahms is way more reserved)
I think they'd have a lot in common in general !!!! I BET Vincent reads some old gothic novels and poetry. And same goes for Brahms. I can absolutely see them very quietly mumbling in the corner and like, geeking over some obscure 1800s book in that way where, they're too embarrassed to like act as exited as they are but they're both getting all jittery and "hahahahaha u like this too??? Omg thats so cool ive never met anyone else who likes this too ahaahahahah" (while neither of them rarely meet people at all)
The music thing too definetly!!!!! Brahms being a little reserved in the beginning but then he lets the angst in and listens to some proper metal and actually gets hella into it <3
ALSO HAHA YES JONESY AND LOUD HANGING OUT IS VERY GOOD sorry im out here focusing on thinking abt socially awkward people making friends instead of going out and making friends myself 💖
Tumblr media
It would be a vwrym.... quiet encounter. Fuzzy.

survey results are in!
sorry, this is gonna be a long post. yesterday i posted a survey with a list of polls regarding Supernatural, and it was SO much fun. I got over 300 responses, which was A LOT to sort through for the short responses, but I’ve gathered all the “data” and here it is! My responses to each poll will be under the screenshots (they are in groups of 2). I’m going to include the short answer responses in another post. ENJOY!
Tumblr media

3. Yep, I expected this response from most of us.
4. Sami, I made the wincest and destiel response just for you. YW.
Tumblr media
5. CMON YOU GUYS......live a little!!! samjack sexy
6. I’m not really surprised that Playthings got the bulk of votes here, but I think my vote would have been 8x23.
Tumblr media
7.  :)
8. i’m disappointed that more people didn’t choose the yellow one tbh
Tumblr media
9. it is sexy. it is. wake up.
10. i love Dean, but he’s definitely an asshole. and that’s what makes him a great character!
Tumblr media
11. hehe.....i understand why not a lot of people picked noncon bait....u r valid its ok im gross.
12. WHO THE FUCK PICKED NO......have you ever consumed media
Tumblr media
13. WBK.
14. damn, Dean kinda got the short end here! a lot of samgirls took this survey
Tumblr media
15. i get why you wouldn’t like Bugs bc it does have harmful stereotypes about native ppl but the rest of it is peak season 1 wdymmm
16. almost 50/50 here! old vs new fans we love to see it. I am definitely wincest old guard.
Tumblr media
17. YEP. Eric Kripke needs shock therapy for that one
18. The fact that some people admitted to being dry.....tragic. I think Eileen is a great character but they are NOT endgame.
Tumblr media
19. SO YOURE JUST GONNA SIT THERE AND ADMIT HOW WRONG YOU ARE??
20. ugh. yeah. same.
Tumblr media
21. who tf picked blue. cmon. red meat incest agenda.
22. SAM MOMMY MILKERS!!!!! hucow sam <3

24. I do think Bobby favored Dean somewhat.
Tumblr media
25. Johnzazel agenda so true
Tumblr media
26. HIGHKEY CANON. AND SEXY

Tumblr media

Tumblr media
30. I can’t believe this one is almost 50/50. Ruby girlboss you guys are haters
31. again. admitting you’re dry. THEY FUCKED
Tumblr media
32. yeah :(
33. Q-anon level conspiracy theory.
Tumblr media
34. I actually fall into the blue. I do believe Cas was in love with Dean, but not the other way around. I think Cas loving Dean makes wincest so much more spicy
35. I love sam so much
Tumblr media
36. those of you who answered yes........join my movement.
37. c’mon. even if you don’t ship wincest you need to admit this one.
Tumblr media
38. sorry this one was self-indulgent.
39. JESS PEGGED SAM.
Tumblr media
40. idk, i personally think Cassie deffo pegged Dean. She has top energy.
41. So all the people who answered no have definitely not read the fic (were too young to remember it) or are squicked by underage which is ok! its one of those fics i read back in 2010 so i have fond memories of it
Tumblr media
42. hahahah you guys were mean on this one
43. it’s canon bro sorry
Tumblr media
44. thank god this one was majority yellow
45. i give wincestiel a valid pass! dean has multiple holes
Tumblr media
46. Jack is hole <3
47. I actually think both are great (and ppl were mad I didn’t have that option srry) but deanpussy is incredible and underrated.
Tumblr media
48. SEXY>>>>>>
49. thank you for enabling me.
Tumblr media
50. can you guess the redacted part? it was: insert various objects into himself :))))
51. ok heres the big question! i’m not surprised ilysmmbb won, but i personally vote for “yeah, there he is” !! i think its underrated and such a tender moment.
Tumblr media
52. i’m in the blue. i like cas.
53. i actually am in the yellow on this one. i think its more realistic, although blue is hot forsure
Tumblr media
54. top 3 cas moment right there.
55. objectively yes on this one. thank god for COVID- *gets shot at*
Tumblr media
56. sorry this was shady i’m not really like this usually haha. i think death is my fave besides Rowena
57. obviously i’m in the red. i’m shocked that so many people said Yes.......
Tumblr media
58. Clearly.
59. I enjoyed fan fiction! i love campy episodes as you all know (like Dog Dean afternoon and such) so i loved fan fiction. it was a nice nod to someone like me who has been watching for a long time.
Tumblr media
60. HOW THE FUCK COULD YOU NOT KNOW WHO ANDY IS. i wish he would have been in the show longer........
61. uh....yeah.
Tumblr media
62. Yeah c’mon. Dean would and you know it.
63. Thank god you guys didn’t fuck this up. I would agree, but Corbett is a close second for me.
Tumblr media
64. IN THE RED BABY!!!!
65. we love a man bleeding out. we do.
Tumblr media
66. i actually think misha is chill with J2 but.....you can’t deny J3 have more chemistry.
67. I uh......don’t think Dean would be a great father. is this me projecting my own issues with my father onto Dean? maybe,,,,
Tumblr media
68. i’m surprised this was so negative! I think i would be interested
69. thanks for reading my shitty poetry!! i also had s4 dean in mind when writing this
Tumblr media
70. CMON.....ITS KINDA SEXY CMON.......that spice of battered wife syndrome.......violent man in the house.......sam beaten down....im barking

75. SEXY CONTROLLING OLDER BROTHER!!!!!
Tumblr media
76. no idea why people answered yes to this one. that punch was fucked up. was it sexy? thats another story,,
77. WOKE. 
Tumblr media
78. I do. I love pilot Dean.
79. Dean is a carfucker. any side of the fandom can recognize that
Tumblr media

001.    alias  /  name :    my real name is alina, but im kinda flexible with aliases and names? i always tell people to call me whatever they want for a reason! but besides alina, i also like the name aurora & went by joey for a while too .... *jazz hands*
002.    birthday :    guess what? it's literally right around the corner! my day of birth is october 25!
003.    zodiac :    scorpio supremacy baby! with gemini moon & capricorn rising to go with it
004.    height :    literally no clue, i've never cared much about my height. last i checked ( which must've been forever ago ) it was like ... 5'6?
005.    hobbies :    writing is obviously my main one, since it's the most rewarding hobby for me. but i also do art on the rare occasion and i practice ventriloquism with my dummy here and there. erm, i also play games when i have a console! and debates are cool
007.    favorite  color :    i've always been fond of light pinks & bright reds. definitely a warm color person. oh! and i also like intense white colors, or dulled grays ...
008.    favorite  book :    not a big book dude after discovering fanfic haha, but ive always adored lord of the flies when i read it in school. it occasionally reawakens my fancy now and again too, because there's something so intimate about a bunch of adolescent boys descending into savagery ... and the question of if that's a good or bad thing. but yeah, that! but perhaps the new book im reading, wuthering heights, will top it!
009.    favorite  food :    i will eat anything so i don't think i have a favorite food, sorry!
010.    last  show :    escape the night if i had to guess, it's the last show i watched that i actively focused on. i'm not a big show person.
011.    inspiration :    i don't really do much to get inspo to write, it just comes and goes whenever it wants ; but i do think me spending late hours reading through tumblr poetry blogs helps sparks my creativity! spite and loneliness are also inspirations in their own form.
012.    story  behind  url :    i think it's quite obvious and very unoriginal ,,, but i'll talk about it anyway! law- is for the fact mat is, well, a detective. he doesn't show this off too much in the show and i don't think it's the biggest part of his character, but it's important nonetheless, since roles in etn are important. also his whole boner for justice ( when it works for him ) also contributes to that law- part. -rising is thanks to the lazarus harp, and shows mat's revival! he was risen from the grave so. yeah!

me:
- weird attachment to the mechanics of fusion in any universe that has it
- spent a good portion of my childhood conceptualizing myself as either a possessed child or the ghost doing the possessing, my memory of which perspective it was changed from time to time?
- completely forgot about that, then several years later wrote "am i possessed or am i the ghost?" in my fuckin notes app note for shitty poetry
- for a long time was insecure about my Big Trauma™ event bc my memories of it are from a third person perspective looking down on my actual self as its happening, meaning it feels disconnected from me therefore does that mean that it didnt actually traumatize me? was it actually not traumatizing and i just tell people it was because i want attention?
- that above thing was also a huge stumbling block in my did consideration as well bc "it feels like it didnt happen to /me/, therefore can that count as a big enough trauma to cause it? i mean if it happened to someone else then it couldnt have traumatized ME enough to cause that" aka "i cant have the 'i went through such a horrible trauma that my brain invented someone else for it to happen to' disorder because my horrible trauma feels like it happened to someone else, so checkmate"
- have incredibly shit memory of most of my life but especially everything before graduation and /especially/ early childhood
- have had a lot of convos w my bf that boil down to "you said this" "no i didnt" "yes you did" "i dont remember that"
- have been fully considering my "autopilot" as a seperate being for well over a year now
- have made jokes about "yeah no, /i/ dont know how to drive, its more like my body knows how to drive! thats why im not worried when I zone out while driving is bc i spent most of the learning process zoned out as well, so zoned-out me learned how to drive instead of focused me, yknow? like to the point tbh where i actually feel like i drive worse if im actively forcing myself to pay attention, haha isnt that wild?"
also me: ok but what if i dont have it tho
