[poorly-drawn-mdzs]

you are so whimsical i qant to check out this mdzs (..??) because of your whimsical nature thank you sorry im very high and your art moved me emotionally

This is simultaneously the sweetest and funniest thing someone has sent me, thank you.

#ask #non-mdzs #I have a hunch you will not recall sending this to me but I wish to immortalize it. #The progression of me going 'aw' to 'barking with laughter' at the last bit of this message was a delight. #Oh man what to say about getting into MDZS... #I admit I'm probably low on the list of people who should be recommending it. #I enjoy it! But there are also a ton of different adaptations that each do a slightly different thing with the story and characters. #Personally I loved The Untamed (Netflix live action) for how campy the action was. It got emotional but really...It made me laugh. #And I love watching it with people because it also makes them laugh. #(The Untamed changes a lot of plot elements so it isn't looked upon very favourably by many fans. I love it as its own thing) #Don't get me wrong; it *is* a story with interesting things to say and I certainly have written tons of analysis on it. #But it's also a series I spent over a year making parody comics of. It comes from a place of love! #The audio drama is really good and I think it might be the best form of mdzs...however finding episodes is not easy. #The audio drama is also what I'm basing all these comics on! #There is a book (the primary source) An animated series and a comic to check out as well. #Someone probably has a better pitch and recommendation list than I do. I just make the funny comics.

[lovesickeros]

can.. can I ask for an affectionate reader with characters who aren’t normally like… used to the love? like, not just through words but physical affection like hand-holding, kisses, hugs, all that shebang. probably with a few people like yelan, ei, basically any character that is either cut-off from society or seems socially distant or isolated. 😞

☆ affectionate reader with yelan, ei, & furina

[ 4.2 Archon Quest spoilers ]

× yelan

Varies between how you display your affection, to be honest. Just like being affectionate with people? She's cool with it as long as you don't pop by while she's working (mostly because she'll end up dragging you into it for a bit of fun). I don't think she's all that touchy feely herself, but she'll absolutely get you gifts instead– like pretty knick nacks? She'll make sure to snag any she thinks you might like. Like a good meal? Sure, she'll take you out to one of the restaurants in the city, doesn't matter how expensive. Her treat. If you do prefer physical gifts rather then being taken out, you'll eventually get used to the random unmarked letters and packages showing up where your staying pretty often. It's obvious to know who it came from even if she never signs anything.

Flirty reader, though? Whole nother can of worms and now it's a challenge. The more confident you are the more interested she is. The other acolytes would absolutely seethe at the idea but she has no hesitation at just straight up flirting back– she's as charismatic as they come and she's got a poker face that's basically impenetrable. She'll probably also make a bet to see who cracks first (she always wins, unsurprisingly). Probably won't get dragged into any of her schemes this way but if you ask politely maybe she'll consider it, anyway.

The smell of freshly brewed tea and the clatter of dice across wood was a common sight at the Yanshang Teahouse– less common was the woman secluded in the far corner, her lips pulled into a grin that flashed fangs and a look that would scare off the most confident of men.

She'd normally try to scope out any new blood that'd made the mistake of stepping into her teahouse and was equally stupid enough to accept a gamble against her just for the thrill of it, but she was far too absorbed in the warm body at her side, one of her die clasped tightly in their hand as she guided them through the motions– they had a knack for it, she had to admit. The thought made her preen, the clatter of the die as it rolled across the table giving her that subtle, familiar rush.

Even if she knew exactly where it'd land.

"Six. Hm, maybe you're just lucky," She muses, plucking the die from the table and holding it up to her eye like a prized jewel, "Or maybe you're not as innocent as you'd have us believe." There's a sharp glint in her eyes at the prospect, but everyone else has the sense to keep their heads down and their words to themselves as she tosses the die herself.

"So why don't we find out and make a bet, just between you and me?"

× ei

Varies between Ei and the Shogun, because you'll probably be seeing either as much as the other. Sometimes you gotta really squint to tell who it is sometimes, but you get used to it. Both are fairly similar, though, in that their first instinct (especially in public) is to tense up like you're about to attack them or something. Difference is Ei eventually relaxes after a solid minute of trying to process your sudden affection and, if no one else is around, she might even reciprocate. Just don't tease her for being a little stiff and awkward about it, she's trying. That's what happens when your only company is a robot and uh. Nothing. For like 500 years. She's trying. Raiden, on the other hand, is just about as awkward as you can imagine. She's polite (blunt) about it because Ei is fond of you and also you are. The Creator. But she's not really built to deal with personal relationships and so she doesn't know how to deal with affection.

..Depending on what you do you may or may not blue screen Ei hard enough that she retreats back to PoE

Ei usually isn't fond of sitting still, unless it's to meditate. At least then she goes in with a purpose, something to achieve– but now, she's just focused on trying not to make a fool of herself. Her muscles are starting to ache from how hard she's tensing, though, in an effort to sit as straight and still as possible as their hands glide through her hair, weaving it into a single braid.

She can just barely hear the subtle lilt of their voice as they hum– and though it is soothing, it is also..very distracting. She can't focus long enough to try and meditate, too lost in the gentle rise and fall of their voice and the care they take to braid her hair. If she'd had a heart, she'd sure it'd be beating so wildly against her ribcage they could hear it.

But then it stops– their hands fall back to their sides and their humming falters. She freezes, too, racking her brain for any slights she must have committed. Instead, she is met with a calm, tender touch on the back of her neck, making her inhale sharply.

"Am I making you uncomfortable, Ei? You're so tense.." She has to grit her teeth to stop herself from bowing so low her head presses against the ground, her hands folded in her lap, clenching instinctively. "..No, Divine One." She answers simply, trying to contain the adoration swelling in her chest.

Yet as much as she tries to relax, to ease their worries, she finds that she cannot.

"Hm." That small murmur, a simple sound that nearly made her jump, was the only warning she got before they scooted closer, wrapping their arms around her stomach and resting their chin on her shoulder with a grin she would liken to Miko's, if she dared to make such a comparison. "Really?"

She swears she must've been feverish at the affection, lightheaded and dazed until she thought she might simply perish at the brush of their hands against her own.

Much to her embarrassment, however, she doesn't realize she's instinctively pulled back into Plane of Euthymia until she sees the familiar dull purples engulf her vision once again.

Though only a small solace, it seemed a little..brighter, this time.

× furina

Varies between pre 4.2 and post 4.2 archon quests to be honest.

Pre 4.2 she comes off as very vain– of course the most Divine would see fit to spoil her with affection! She deserves it, and is obviously their favorite! Just don't look too hard because she's terrible at hiding how flustered she actually is. Absolutely goes home right after and screams into her pillow for at least thirty minutes minimum.

Post 4.2 she's a lot more openly bashful and flustered. She's really not used to affection and even the smallest show of it has her folding immediately. Now that she doesn't need to worry about being found out she's a lot more receptive to affection. Cup her cheeks and compliment her and her knees are buckling. Like. Especially weak for compliments and praise (she deserves it. please spoil her).

She swears she must be hallucinating– she had been having trouble sleeping recently. But..no. The visage of the Creator was as real as the sweat beading on her brow as she stared at them for a long, awkward moment. Should..she let them in? But then they'd see the pathetic state she was in, and the last thing she wanted to do was make a fool of herself in front of them-!

Her choice was quickly made for her, anyway, as she let out an undignified squeak of surprise when they suddenly tugged her forward into their chest, enclosing her in a hug.

Her first reaction was to freeze– her second was becoming absolutely flustered, her cheeks flushing a soft pink and her mouth closing and opening as she tried to find her words.

"I– ah..um." She stumbled over her words instead, floundering like a fish out of water. Yet she felt a distinct sense of emptiness wash over her when they finally pulled back, looking a touch sheepish. "Sorry, sorry– you just looked like you needed a hug."

The silence spoke for itself, her shoulders tensing slightly. But the way the concern and affection bled through their voice made her waver, her hands trembling as she let out a shaky breath that almost sounded like a sigh.

"It's..It's fine! Fine, I'm fine." She repeated, trying desperately to ignored the way her voice cracked and how hot her face felt– though it was more an attempt to affirm herself that she was not thinking about how warm they felt, how much she..actually enjoyed the hug. She wasn't thinking about it all! Absolutely not!

..Maybe a little.

"Just warn me next time, please?"

[mossy-aro]

Ace/aro books coming out this year that I’m looking forward to!

Is Love the Answer by Uta Isaki - stand-alone manga about a college girl who discovers she is aroace. The same mangaka also did ‘Mine-kun is Asexual’ a couple of years ago which I liked, though it was much shorter, so I’m happy to see a full length release from them. This came out just last week, so I’m super excited to read it when it gets here!

I want to be a wall (Vol.2) by Honami Shirono - manga series - releasing 17th Jan. I already posted about how much I enjoyed Vol 1 of this series, but for recap it’s about an aroace woman and her lavender marriage to a gay man who is unrequitedly in love with his best friend. I’m really excited to see how their non-conventional relationship plays out :) it’s very slice of life and cozy!

I am Ace by Cody Daigle-Orians aka Ace Dad Advice - releasing 21 Feb 2023. I’m glad to see a book about a sexuality actually written for an ace audience, because I feel like a lot of aspec books/articles are aimed at raising awareness with allos. I’m excited to see how this one goes!

Sounds Fake But Okay: An Asexual and Aromantic Perspective on Love, Relationships, Sex, and Pretty Much Anything Else - by Kayla Kaszyca and Sarah Costello - releasing 21 Feb 2023. I’ve listened to their podcast a bit over the years and I’m curious to see what they come up with in this book!

If you want to see a fuller list of all the ace and aro books coming out this year, check out this list HERE!

#aro #aromantic #aroace #asexual #ace #aspec #ace books #aro books #aspec books #aspec recs #personal #I want to be a wall #uta isaki #is love the answer #I’d def recommend checking out the list - it has a lot more on there if y’all r interested #including a lot of fiction books!

into the tides by ftld

completed | E | 16,657 words

“I’m not that into sex,” Sakusa says without regard for the public setting or the strangled noise that erupts from Atsumu’s throat. He hooks a finger through the handle of a delicately patterned teacup, arches an eyebrow, and waits. // this whole series >>> i'm love them

build me up by kromotriga

part 7/? | E | 37,100 words

Atsumu’s fingers involuntarily twitch as he types ‘strap on harness’ in the search bar of a favorite sex toy site while he waits, wondering what Kiyoomi has in store for him. He has his own toys he likes and is used to but he’s never seriously thought about the harness part before, about what a hypothetical partner might wear. Then Kiyoomi emerges from the bathroom and he doesn’t have to wonder anymore, phone slipping from his hand to be lost in the sheets. // fem omi fucks atsumu for most of this series, as she should <3

anytime, omi omi. by deliriious

completed | E | 2,156 words

what's better than fucking your boyfriend's thighs, or between his cheeks while he sleeps? kiyoomi thinks for a long moment. reaaally gives it some thought, before coming to an irrefutable conclusion. nothing, that's what. // consensual somno is like. catnip for me

lay me down by kromotriga

part 3/? | E | 13,563 words

It’s been almost six years since she’s last heard him say her given name. Atsumu may not need memories, experience become muscle become memory instead, but memories of standing huddled together in a deserted hallway after their last high school match still flood through her all the same. Sakusa— Kiyoomi had tenderly cradled her face as gentle thumbs wiped away tears of frustration, over Inarizaki's loss to Itachiyama, over Kiyoomi's rejection after months of what she’d thought was mutual romantic build-up. "I want to kiss you but I can't, yet," he'd whispered, knocking his sweaty forehead into hers. "The next time we meet I'll be different, but if you still want to I'll kiss you then as much as you want." With that promise Kiyoomi had reluctantly pulled away and Atsumu hadn't understood what he meant until he'd made news a few months later by joining his collegiate men's team. He may have missed her, as she did him, but that doesn’t mean he wants anything more than friendship now. Atsumu still reaches out slowly, his eyes following her movement, to lay a hand over Kiyoomi’s, fingers brushing his wrist bone where another pair of symmetrical moles stand out on his pale skin. “I missed you, too.” // skts reunion fics my beloved, they're everythingg

#sldkf all of these are just. them fucking <3 #i truly don't think they're gonna be helpful for self-exploration but i vibe with them. but good luck anyways ! #kinda broke my rec guidelines for this post but you can blame that on a lack of ace content. also i didn't feel like checking other ships #i think i sent you the first one before but shhhhh. also go read no fucking way by wrunic. i said it before but it's in my last rec list #if you notice 2 of these are by the same person..... what can i say i'm love their fics #whoops i need actual tags #haikyuu #miya atsumu #sakusa kiyoomi #sakuatsu #haikyuu fic recs #my recs

[unopenablebox]

my mom recently reminded me that when i was in 5th grade my teacher would periodically report to her that i was "sneaky" because i would ask to use the bathroom during class and instead go retrieve things from my locker that i had forgotten to bring with me

and even at the time she thought this was ridiculous and obviously not representative of an intrinsically deceitful nature, fortunately for me. but it's really extra ridiculous looking back on it now as a 28-year-old research professional who has to double back into the room i just left for some combination of gloves, tube rack, ice bucket, or samples at least once a day, a quality absolutely no one cares about or would ever make me justify to another person and which i therefore don't have to tell contrived lies about

#i did eventually develop more capacity to check for an essential list of items before going somewhere less accessible #e.g. if i am going to teach or to a meeting across campus i don't like. forget my laptop #but something that's down the hallway??? for a non-time-bounded activity? #i am probably never going to develop the capacity to have 100% of those things every time i go somewhere and it just. doesn't matter. #my school was less weird about this stuff than a lot of places i hear about and most teachers would e.g. enter negotiations about a way #for me to hand things in that i would actually consistently remember was happening and could show up to. so usually i was fine. #but it just made it more notable that this person thought i was like. an inveterate liar. because i wanted to go get the 1 notebook i forgo #out of the six books and notebooks i was supposed to be carrying around that day #without getting publicly scolded for being too disorganized to adapt to future life stages. #box opener

[unexpectedstormy]

I wonder if the reason why I tend to get overlooked as an LU writer is because I tend to write for Wild and Hyrule and not the "cool" Links like Legend, Warriors, Time or Four.

#what I mean is that anytime someone makes a “fanfiction authors to check out/follow” list I'm never on it #and anytime someone makes a “recommended fics” list none of my fics are ever on it #(to be fair many of my fics are unfinished multichapters) #I don't get tagged in writer posts when all my other writer friends do get tagged #I've never had fanart except what I've made myself for my own fics #and I also have the Curse of Always Being Overlooked in my in-person life and apparently that extends to online life as well #while I do generally like going under the radar it's annoying to be literally invisible all the time forever #I'm not a big blog (if you saw my follower count you'd know I'm not one) and I don't want to be #but sometimes it would be nice if people stopped forgetting I am actually a writer too

[rose-tinted-vision]

so I'm rewatching ajtl (because I'm a sucker for the "squad of murder bffs who are also talented in their own field" troupe) and I NEED a liudaotang squad prequel please

because apparently

Qian Zhao says he has known Ning Yuanzhou for 20 years

NYZ is apparently 30, so they met as kids?

NYZ rescued a five year old Yuan Lu from a warehouse fire in the Hungry Ghost Realm

YL also mentioned that the Princess (Yang Ying) asked about NYZ, so the both of them were already acquainted before the Quest™

Ning Yuanzhou was just a scout from the Hell Realm before he became Head of the Six realms. (Sun Lang and Qian Zhao are commanders in their respective realms, YSS and YL were commanders too).

NYZ was in prison with YSS??? prison buddies prequel???

Can't remember if Yu Shisan and Sun Lang mentioned anything about how they got to know NYZ

#me trying to piece together their backstory like the #ive connected the dots meme #heres my humble list of stuff ive picked out during my rewatch so far #i just really really want to know how yss and nyz met bc their personalities seem so different on the surface #and yet (i may be biased here) they seem to have the deepest understanding of each other out of the 5 of them #yss makes sure to check up on nyz sort of like the #“but if you're protecting us then who's protecting you” thing #and nyz for his part sees through yss and all his flamboyance #thats another essay for another day #just know that i would die for these five dumb stabby men #a journey to love #一念关山 #ning yuanzhou #yu shisan #qian zhao #sun lang #yuan lu

[the-final-sif]

For those unaware of the context of the twitter interaction with cc!Dream, Dream replied to a c!dream fan who he follows making fun of Inniters that claim that c!dream was beating up c!Tommy constantly/off-screen during Exile. His exact words were:

c!Dream liked the feeling of power and control that c!Tommy’s friend exiling him gave him. He wanted c!Tommy to feel so isolated that he eventually viewed c!Dream as his only friend, and would help c!Dream’s goals Would have worked if it wasn’t for c!Techno living nearby

Now, this is confirmation of what dreblr has said since back when staged finale was a theory. c!Dream's goal with exile was to further his own goals. The point of it wasn't to torment c!Tommy just for the sake of it, and it certainly wasn't that c!Dream had some sort of specific obsession over c!Tommy.

None of this is news to us, but it is very explicit in spelling out that Exile was not the endgame. Exile was just another step in c!Dream's plan. c!Tommy and control over him isn't c!Dream's end goal. c!Tommy was/is just yet another tool in service of c!Dream's overall goal. All of them need therapy.

Anyways, the tl:dr, nothing exciting, stuff we already knew. c!Dream's overall plan is, in fact, still what he's working for. Also cc!Dream found a spider and I've admittedly spent a lot more of my time trying to ID it than anything else today. I've been trying not to cheat, and so far I've come to the conclusion that it's either in Ctenidae or part of Amaurobiidae based on the groove it appears to have. Will update on this as the story progresses.

#dreblr #c!dream #c!tommy #dreamwastaken #exile arc #dsmp #dream smp #sif speaks #anyways the funniest part of all of this was I decided to go through dreams follows for fun and to check some things #this man literally has managed to follow half of dreblr on his alt / was taken account #loyal bubbles dr3 were the ones that popped out #and then a bunch of people w/cdream apologist in their bios #also shout out to the one person whose got a dream follow and just has sapnap is hot in their bio #thats bold #same for the person w/filthy dnfer in the bio #anyways I do not use twitter at all but dreams twitter follow list is hilarious #back to my very important spider search #also fuck dream for not including a size reference #pls why would he not think of this very stupid task I wanted to put upon myself

[ben-the-hyena]

Twitter and Tumblr about completely changing Ariel's ethnia and race in the live action adaptation : "die mad, fiction is fiction, and her origins don't matter in the storyline anyway, who cares where Ariel is from as long as she sings ? Anyone arguing is a racist because life is literally black and white and so are opinions on adaptations, color washing doesn't exist you're just a bigot"

Twitter and Tumblr now that Disney casted an actress who is more native Hawaiian than they ever will be but is not "dark enough" for playing Nani therefore "not a real Hawaiian and white washing" despite she is not white

#personally I won't even watch this movie because I boycott live action remakes but the double standard is pathetic #'i wished Nani looked like Nani' oh I thought they were just cartoons and those who wanted Ariel to look like Ariel were racist ? #because for what I know the Hawaiian aspect of the story (dealing with tourism racism) will be respected with a native in the role then #but omg she DARES being lighter ! look at this point they never cast an actress who looks like the source material (look at Belle...) #so let us just be glad they took someone of the fitting race without checking a quotat list. so what #so lighter skinned POC/mixed POC are not 'native enough' to you ? pretty racist #like i hate Pepa in Encanto but I remember being frustrated people were mad they DARED depicting ONE light skinned latina #lol #tumblr #twitter #Disney #fandom #hypocrisy #them bastards ! #reaction image #race #the little mermaid #movie #lilo and stitch #ariel #nani #colors #black people #white people #racism #polynesian #it reminds me of people saying they were shocked a white guy was playing a pharaoh. it was Rami Malek who is Egyptian #or complaining they casted an Indian for Jasmine while Aladdin's place is ambiguous and it could be Indo-Persian for what we know

[ftmtftm]

This is a long ask sorry. Recently I saw screenshots of some transmascs (usernames were understandably cropped out) saying that transandrophobia stems from “sex, which is immutable” and these screenshots were being held up as a reason why the idea of transandrophobia was stupid (and if this is the only encounter someone has had with the conversation around transandrophobia I don’t necessarily blame them because that is stupid)

I think in response to that post going around, I’ve also seen a couple people (who were transmasc themselves) accusing people that believe in transandrophobia of like, perpetuating radfem rhetoric and claiming “femaleness when it’s convenient, to victimize themselves”.

I was wondering if you had any thoughts or insight on navigating conversation about transandrophobia or antitrans masculinity when there is the occasional bio essentialist shithead, and that kind of person seems to be the most associated with the theory?

Okay so - I just want to preface this and say this is genuinely just my own personal course of action informed by a lot of my experiences having been on Tumblr for over a decade. I honestly don't know how helpful it is for others, but it's ultimately how I personally do it, so I'll share.

My go to response for the kind of people who seem to be self victimizing or who seem to be bio essentialist shitheads - and my go to response to the people who use that to say they're perpetuating radfem rhetoric by self victimizing - is honestly usually to just scroll past, sometimes block depending personal comfort, and move on.

Sometimes I do engage despite my better judgment and usually? I feel like shit afterwards because it ended up being pointless arguing. Most times I'll draft something that responds to concepts being brought up by those people and make my own post later or I'll reblog a relevant post that I've already made, but I do really try not to directly engage and I would encourage others to do the same.

Instead, I try to contribute in the ways I'm personally good at like via academia/original posts/answering asks. I feel very confident in my own opinions and my ability to back them up in response to accusations of Radfem ideals and self victimization because I know myself and I know my understanding of both Radical Feminism and Intersectional, Black, Decolonialist Feminism. I pretty constantly try to do a lot of self examination, but ultimately I'm confident in my core ethics and morals and I try to reflect that out to others in a human way. That carries a lot of weight for me personally.

That's all really important to me because this is ultimately still Tumblr and there's a lot of people in a lot of pain here. It's the piss on the poor hellscape webed site full of extremely traumatized people that have been at each other's throats over the worst faith readings of every opinion possible for longer than some users have even been alive.

When you've been here and in discourse spaces specifically for awhile - it becomes pretty obvious when a hurt person is lashing out and not actually engaging with an idea in a way that isn't focused on their own pain. I can do what I can, but those conversations specifically tend to devolve into nothing good real fast. So? It's just genuinely not something I try to dedicate a lot of time to engaging directly with. Especially because it gets really exhausting and honestly bad for my own mental health at certain points.

Hopefully that's helpful in some way? I'm genuinely not really sure if it is, but I hope so.

#I do self admittedly have some bad engagement habits and get sucked into the void sometimes #but having a system really helps me check myself most of the time #(the system is checking to see if they have their age and or race listed #getting the vibe of their blog and checking their other original posts #usually they're some combination of young white and or extremely depressed #and I tend to just leave those folks alone because I feel for them #but they need friends and community #not an autistic academic 💀 #like I'm not the helpful person in that situation so I just try to assess and move on) #asks #anon #transandrophobia

[NOT your personal favorite, but the most Taylor Swift™️ Taylor Swift song, in your opinion]

#taylor swift #polls #don’t come at me for the options I listed I am a scientist #do NOT pick your personal favorite or I’ll bite you #pick the song that the first time you heard it you were like ‘yeah. yeah. that tracks.’ #for me personally it’s maroon #i heard it and I was like how is this song not already in her discography #it’s just such a timeless (sorry) TSwift™️ song #like if you took away jacks synthesizer (inshallah 🙏) you could easily convince me it was a red vault track #it checks all the boxes. color symbolism. extended metaphor. a deepseated personal hatred for jake gyllenhaal. #honorable mentions karma and wildest dreams #idk why but the vault tracks spoke to me more sorry girls
