silly soulmate au where everyone has the first words their soulmate said to them on their body somewhere and anakin’s are “excuse me sir, your shoelaces are untied” so he walks around with his shoes untied as a way of trying to bait life into giving him his soulmate

But one day he’s like super done with it and cranky after a bad day and someone taps his shoulder while he’s waiting at a crosswalk and says “excuse me sir your shoelaces are untied” and anakin snaps “your shoelaces are untied”

and obi-wan “afraid to submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known enough to be loved” kenobi says “I’m not wearing shoelaces” kinda flabbergasted because he’s spent like 30 years wearing untieable shoes so no one can ever tell him “your shoelaces are untied” only to be thwarted by a beautiful, aggressive soulmate of a stranger

#obikin #Kit’s silly lil AUs #before you ask yeah my shoelaces are untied #and many many strangers have told me #anyway I think it would be funny if obi-wan is so gobsmacked #that the light changes #and anakin is like ‘congratu fucking lations then’ and storms off #OR neither of them really notice/clock the other person is their soulmate #and then meet at a party a year later with no memory of each other #because it was just a brief interaction with a stranger at the end of a long day #over and forgotten #but then they fall in love and date after the party where they meet #and it’s an amazing relationship and very strong and perfect #and anakin starts wearing shoes that don’t have shoelaces because he’s terrified of meeting his soulmate now that he has obi-wan #OR maybe they meet again and become close friends but they don’t date #and they pine over each other for months but don’t want to risk their friendships #and anakin starts lacing his shoes/wearing boots because he doesn’t want to find his soulmate when he’s so in love with obiwan #only for obi-wan to start wearing shoes with laces because he needs to find his soulmate because he’s in love with anakin and that’s awful #will ruin him #(in that version they don’t know what the other person’s mark says)

i cant stop thinking about these chat messages . and i can’t even explain why they make me so insane because my brain just keeps repeating What if theyre evil. But what if they’re not

#zeph.text #i watched this vod like a month ago and i still think about zam and subz’s conversations during it too frequently #their early relationship is so dear to me #it’s new and odd and neither of them are quite sure what to make of it but they’re something like friends- #-when neither of them really have that. subz is a recluse and zam isn’t on good terms with many people anymore let alone close with anyone #and it’s a fickle thing but it’s a companionship that they both appreciate #and i’d continue this but i really need to sleep . also this post wasn’t even about them in the first place. wh #anyways yeah. unintentional foreshadowing . i’m clawing the walls and foaming at the mouth #i want to bash my head in with a hammer

people are discoursing about the laios and shiro fight bc that was always going to happen but i do hope that wave crests quickly and we can all come to see it as what it is: literally one of the best written fights between two people who are both entirely justified in their actions and acting without any malice or cruelty of all time

#theres a tendency - especially in action and faction based media (which a lot of fantasy is or is in dialogue with) - to depict fights only #as happening between someone who Is Right and someone who Is Wrong #and getting to see a full on beatdown between two dudes who are both acting in an entirely understandible way and who both dont actually #want to hurt the other at all - to the extent where their desire to maintain a positive relationship with each other is the SOURCE of their #conflict in the first place - is just so cathartic to see #like unpopular opinion but sometimes you do just need to Fight someone to work through issues youre having #like irl i would not recommend that extent of Force obviously #but if you're two people in a situation where neither has active power over the other sometimes the healthiest option involves expressing #and receiving genuine anger that is not filtered through a social buffer #like sometimes you just need to yell that someone is pissing you off by how much they invade ur time and space and sometimes you need to #yell that someone is sabotaging your ability to interact with them by not expressing any discomfort with your behaviour ever #AND MOST IMPORTANTLY SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO BE YELLED AT #BECAUSE it sucks. it sucks to experience and until you can both share that space of feeling awful with each other youre not gonna get past #it and you're not gonna understand each other's pain #i think they're both wonderfully well written characters and its a testament to their depth as people that i can so easily understand why #and how both of them are behaving the way they do #im still only like halfway through the manga but it is like my favourite character interaction scene so far #fred says a thing #dunmeshi

Since I have seen a few people try and frame Tolya being aroace as just a headcanon, or point out the (valid) fact that being aroace doesn't completely negate that someone can be in a relationship as a reason why having him be interested in Inej in the show isn't erasure, I feel like it's important to point out that he very specifically states in the text of one of the books that he has no interest in forming a romantic relationship or attachment with anyone and never has:

So yes. Shipping him with Inej, or anyone else, is erasing his canon sexuality. That's it.

#cannot belive people need this explained to them in the year of our lord 2023 #'but he didnt SAY hes aroace' and Jesper never specifically called himself bisexual but you had no trouble getting that #neither did Nina for that matter #like if a character specifically calling themselves the exact same terms for something that we have is the only way to confirm their #sexuality then that means basically any character in any work that doesn't take place in the last century of the real life world has #no canon sexuality. you realize how dumb that sounds #Tolya is aroace. that's canon. he also has no interest in being in a relationship. that is also canon. trying to change that is aroace #erasure. thanks for coming to my tedtalk #shadow and bone #s&b #tolya yul bataar #inej ghafa #tonej #tolnej #image description in alt

"🤓 ackshually, ludger is more likely to think of casey as his equal rather than his LI."

#his LI options may be dozens if he does actually have any interest in romance but how many can truly be qualified as his equal #the entire aup puts zero focuses on romance but highlights nonromantic relationships that ludger has with others #did you really think him having an LI would change smth? that his romance life would suddenly become more important than anything else? #neither of them needs another half bc they are already complete by themselves & yet they still make meaningful impacts to each other anyway #am i supposed to be upset if casey is ''only'' his equal while his LI will be someone else if there is any at all? #aromantic icon ludger cherish does not care for your amatonormative thinking you pop culture junkies ✌️✌️✌️ #salt

this idea that some ppl seem 2 have of miguel being an insanely jealous/possessive person is so funny 2 me because i just cannot even fathom where it came from in the slightest, lol, like... one of his Whole Things is respecting individual autonomy, y/k-? nevermind he also just. canonically doesn't fucking act that way,.,. yeah, obviously people can draw different wrong conclusions from the source material but, like, that Does Require at least skimmin' the source material... .

out there doing the lord’s work (headcanoning characters as aromantic and Not interested in romantic relationships at all actually, alienating one fandom at a time but having a fantastic blast with it all the while, which is really all that matters)

#gav gab #i need to finish my aro fics #two of them are in progress rn #and both involve the aro character in question being like #not only am i aro but romantic relationships? not for me #one of them is like Friends Are It For Me and the other is interested in a qpr #but neither want romance #and i can’t help but notice that fandoms only seem to want to tolerate like #aro or arospec headcanons when they leave plausible deniability for their ship to still exist #bc of romance favourability or arospec identities that leave room for romantic feelings #not to say those headcanons are bad just that it’s really transparent to me #when fandoms will only allow ones that give them a get out of aro free card so to speak #from an allo or shipper perspective #smacks of the way they’ll allow ace characters or ace headcanons but not aro ones (obv In My Experience disclaimer) #like huh funny how you prioritize your ability to ship over anything else! #cant imagine why fandom spaces feel so inherently and explicitly hostile to me #aro blogging

[archduke-enver-gortash]

made a post about this a while ago but don’t like the wording of it anymore so just know that gortash and zeke have a very strange thing (y’know besides all the other strange things in their relationship) about nakedness. no reactions like embarrassment or shame. occasionally get dressed in the same room together in their days as ‘business partners’ when it’s more convenient. freaks

#there’s other weirder emotions more in their style going on of course #(like fear for zeke and a ‘your soul is laid bare before me already so why would i care. and you shouldn’t either’ from gort but. y’know) #i am yapping so much about the tiniest details of their relationship lol #also. neither of them is attracted to the other physically at all. zeke because. do i even need to explain. #and gortash because he isn’t physically attracted to anyone. well he does have a weird fixation on zeke’s eyes and devouring the #terror rage and pain he causes reflected in them. but i will NOT call that attraction lol. if there’s arousal happening it’s not because he #finds them attractive. #ok. done yapping now. #wait #have to mention how i think it’s funny how gort basically forces zeke to wash his body (some weird powerplay we do not need to get into rn) #and zeke’s like ‘i hate this >:( ‘ but not because he’s grossed out but because he’s essentially forced to worship gort #ok now i’m truly done lmao #oc: zeke #enver gortash #gortash #bg3 #gortash & zeke

rome & shiv fag hag sisters forever.

#i think about them as best friends all the time #as much as they are capable of being “best friends” with anyone. because neither of them really grasp that concept the way kendall does #though thats because kendall calls his boyfriends his old friends (nate/stewy) #and i think shiv and roman r less capable of having a relationship in any capacity. kendall could... hes pathetic and drugged up but #shiv cant give up enough control and romans... in need of solving #shiv roy #roman roy

GOD I HAD AN IDEA AS I WAS FALLING ASLEEP TODAY

About FaaF naturally

A sad one, TW fir near child death and harm

Involves Xero's attempt at an assassination, or it could be literally just any guard controlled by the Radiance

PK and WL need to talk about something private, and WL looks at the tiny vessel tagging along by her wyrm's side

"Should it be here?"

"It wouldn't understand anything anyway."

"Still, it's...a little..."

He sighs lightly, "Yeah, I get where you're coming from... Vessel, come here."

He kneels down and orders them to sit by the door and wait for them while they talk, says he'll come pick them up once they're done and not to move, then the two go to talk on the balcony and close the door behind them

At some point, Xero/the guard bursts in and attacks PK in the middle of the conversation, managing to take them by surprise and so gets one good swing in before PK darts away and retaliates, pinning them down with soul blades, though he has to keep his wife from killing them on the spot - he doesn't want to be so hasty, knowing they're infected and not themself. He pulls out the sword from his chest and that's when they realise, it's covered in void...

Child harm/near death TW beyond this point

After a moment of shock White Lady, who's closest to the doors, runs out and all her husband can hear is a horrified, heartbroken scream. He feels nauseous, his stomach twisting into knots and feeling like his heart is in his throat as he runs out after her. He sees her in tears, cradling a tiny bundle soaked in void. There's- there's so much void. It covers the floor where he left their child vessel and soaks through his lady's shawl and clothes as she cradles them in her arms.

For a moment he's paralysed, before he just snaps. He flies back onto the balcony, screaming at the possessed guard that he'll kill her, he'll make her pay for this, and he slays them in his rage (something he'll regret and feel ashamed of later), still hitting and screaming at Her well after the possessed person is dead and she can't hear him anymore.

He collapses, panting, near tears, and just gets himself up and stumbles out the door and towards the two, he wants to see how bad it is for himself.

Flower survives, but just barely. They had multiple stab wounds and lost their left arm, if not for their parents immediately healing them they'd be dead. They're barely older than 5, still so very little and defenceless, PK is horrified at how could anyone hurt a baby this young and helpless (hypocrite), even if they're not alive.

They're still on bed rest because that was so much damage and their mother doesn't leave their side and their father only leaves when necessary. They still don't realise Flower's alive and they know they shouldn't be so attached but it still feels like their baby and they can't just leave them. WL spends the entire day by their side, gently stroking their hair and horns with her now permanently void stained hands and softly coos and sings to them

Of course, they quickly realise they ARE alive because no way in hell a toddler is getting this hurt and NOT crying and screaming the second they wake up <3

Which just makes this situation so much worse

#thylacines can talk #faaf au #mentions of child harm and near death in tags too btw #so dont read further if its something youre sensitive to or cant handle rn #i like to write him as more sympathetic in faaf but i cant state enough what a gigantic hypocrite he is #pk: How can you hurt a child?! they're FIVE! #child harm cw #radi: ...dude. #dont make your kid a child soldier but also you cant 'all fair's in war' your way out of stabbing a toddler radi #unrelated tangent but they both suck and god i need to focus some more on FaaF Radi. Ik this AU at times feels like sympathetic PK and evil #villain Radi AU but it's really not. They're both morally grey and while Radi is a bit more. questionable and less sympathetic imo. doesnt #mean shes completely evil. they're both meant to be morally grey and both did equally horrible irredeemable shit that they come to regret #and wish to fix. ik it doesnt come off this way at times because i have my things i prefer to write at times and this AU was always a #relationship dynamic exploration between Flower and all different characters. but neither PK nor WL are by no means forgiven. Most of their #kids range from ''i literally dont care about you you are not my parents dont contact me again'' to ''i hate your guts'' #with sometimes an added flavour of ''And I WILL murder your ass if I see you again'' for some of them #(Razor my beutiful wife with unchecked anger issues <3) #sorry if the tags are incomprehensible it is 5 am and i instantly forget anything i write the second i cant read it fully #once i finish writing a tag and it collapses the contents of it instantly leave my short term memory. im not being dramatic btw the amount #of times i have to back out from editing tags to read them back bc i forgot what i wrote is annoying

kei-yuki replied to this post:

Do you think this can be related with his reaction to Aragorn / Thorongil?

Oh, for sure. Denethor was never going to, uh, appreciate Aragorn's plans to displace him, but I think it might be all the more bitter because Aragorn would be the first person he's ever met who is really like him or could get what it's like, but the circumstances make him a threat and Ecthelion's preference makes him more of one.

I mean, of course Aragorn is even "stranger" than the Stewards but... His "royalty", his charisma, the fact that he was rised by Elves... I don't know but perhaps he learned to navigate all these weird Numenorean gifts in a right way when others can only learn by trial an error.

I don't 100% agree that Aragorn is stranger than they are as a rule. He has a capacity for an even more remote strangeness—on the level of a Valinorean Noldo iirc—but he can also pass himself off as a normal guy in a way I don't think they can. Even when he's not concealing his identity, he tends to blend in with the norms of the people around him, and he doesn't generally use his most 'eldritch' abilities or his force of will as obtrusively as Denethor and Faramir do, except in very critical situations.

Denethor and Faramir are neither as strange as Aragorn can be nor as normal as Aragorn can be—just about any time they show up, we discover some new weird thing about them or they say something that's just kind of bizarre. They can exercise their wills to do especially remarkable things, or they can dial it down to their sort of baseline, but they don't seem to have the off switch that Aragorn does.

But I think that actually fits really well with the idea that they and especially Denethor have had to figure out a lot on their own. Aragorn was raised and educated by the immortal twin of the person responsible for all of their abilities. Elrond knew what was coming and I'm sure prepared Aragorn as well as anyone could have. Then Aragorn spent years as a Ranger and hunter, he lived among lots of different people under different identities, he had to be able to come across as a normal (if tall!) guy. So it makes a lot of sense to me that he would have both more capacity to conceal his abilities and his basic strangeness, and more inclination to do so.

(I think it's also possible that Aragorn's abilities overlap heavily with Denethor's but are not quite identical. Denethor, of course, can't heal, and whatever Aragorn's mental powers, he didn't manage to conceal his true identity from Denethor. So maybe that's also at play in how thoroughly unimpressed Denethor is by Thorongil.)

#his dynamic with faramir is obviously also complex and messy but despite everything #denethor entrusts faramir with a wide range of critical tasks in the defense of gondor—he values him pragmatically #as well as loving him in a complex messy way #despite the two of them butting heads when it comes to particulars #neither of which are true wrt aragorn #idk as difficult as the relationship with faramir is #there's been someone Like Him in his life for 36 years and while that's painful in its own way—he wasn't alone in it #so faramir's death would be incredibly isolating in yet another way #like. this is not needed to explain his devastation or him finally snapping under the pressure #but it does layer on the awfulness #kei yuki #respuestas #legendarium blogging #húrinionath #aragorn #denethor #long post #anghraine's headcanon #faramir

every time i see a Cass and Jason post on here it’s always either “here’s how they could have a strong relationship (one of them has to change a lot, obviously)” or “and here’s why they should fight and this person should win (and one of them has to change eventually)”. and every time, i wanna point to my old post about them being worthless to each other as characters. it’s so interesting to talk about how they kill/don’t because they’ve been killed/made to kill, but at the end of the day, they are so useless to each other. there’s nothing about the other that they don’t know (and by that I mean their motivations). there’s not going to be a big “oh my god…you were right all along. i see what you mean and why you do/don’t do this”. they already know! but it doesn’t matter because they are so different that the only thing that can exist between them is tension. there is nothing to be gained from Cass and Jason interacting or acting as foils or whatever else.

#obviously they’re gonna have to interact they’re both characters made to stay in gotham but it should always be short cuz anything past a #few panels and we start getting iffy because we can’t give them a real relationship. they are nothing and everyrhing and everything between #to each other but in the most distant way possible. fundamentally their characters can’t exist for too long in the same scene #writing this in btwn uni hw just because i needed to get it off my mind. stop arguing over who would fix who cuz neither is making the other #so much as pause! they should just know who the other is from a distance. that’s it

PLEASEE POST A NEW CHAPTER OF THE SUGAR DADDY FIC I AM ON MY HANDS AND KNEES 😭😭😭😭😭

Updating All These Nights tonight and then Sugar is next to be updated, promise promise.

#ask #sugar daddy fic #i have been in a writing rut that is known #so i needed to work out some more canon stuff to get the voices back yk? hence updating the other fic first #but also i still feel like the last chapter fell off hard cos i got like no comments #which i know is like 'who cares' but i think i majority switched the style (like for myself) last chapter and i really like it but #if people didnt respond to it #im a little stumped on where to go #(again not in the story but style-wise) #people do not respond to long chapters? people dont respond to the dennis chapters? too much time wasted on sex? idk im #yeah like just a little lost on what people enjoy in the story and what i should gut/cut down on i guess #cos last chapter is hands down my favourite ive written #content wise its close to 6.. #but style-wise i know its so fucking long but i thought it flowed really well and god i love exploring dennis' weird relationship with sex #but to me like only 4 people finished that chapter #to clarify. in my head there are literally only max 10 people who read this thing #and 2 of them are my random friends who arent in this fandom and just want to read what im writing #and neither of them bothered with a 27k chapter.. lol #so im stumped trying to pace the writing and rework how i thought it would go #cos i dont know what people enjoy in the fic!!! and seemingly did not respond to in what i thought was the best chapter so far.. lmfao #sorry you caught me on 30hrs awake and way too much coffee
