im still thinking about that moment last episode where they're planning how to approach dancer and we got:

Ashton: "yeah we should go in with a ginger approach, make sure she doesn't run"

Imogen with complete sincerity, immediately: "so should i just go and calm her emotions right away?"

Ashton with zero judgement or concern: "that, or i was going to pin her down, but that's cool too."

and then when FCG naturally panics over why are we attacking dancer they both turn in sync to be like! No!!! not attacking. restraining. 👍 :) like what. you're both. mildly messed up on exactly the same wavelength here. i love them both so much. what do you mean overkill. this IS my ginger approach. I'm Doing The Job By Whatever Means Necessary Why Are You Yelling.

Something something two people who have spent their lives learning to suppress their flinch/doubt reflex when in a crisis. Out of a horrible necessity. Those two Problem Solving together with a casual sort of callousness. and looking at each other like 👍? 👍 meanwhile FCG is in the background going "wait we're talking about attacking her???" "no of COURSE not, just restraining!" god i adore them.

#its the combination of the mildly unhinged suggested action w/ 'ginger approach' + the casual tones + the agreement + fcg horror in bckgd #what a great scene tbh. i enjoyed it so much i MIGHT update their tag to reflect it......... hmm #critical role #cr spoilers #c3e69 #imogen temult #ashton #migraine buddies #(my current tag for them) #but i could do something here......... hmmm...... interrogation rave? #(because this and they both have light powers... i shall think on it) #scene #shitpost #character meta #? #im a fan whenever they interact tbh #chetney probably would have joined in but thats different bc chet gets JOY from this. these two just think theyre problem solving. which. #they are. i suppose. #'NO! restraining :)'

something i feel responders to pjo criticisms are not getting is book accuracy is important.

rick riordan created this project to be a book accurate adaptation on the screen. it doesn’t matter if annabeth is white and blonde, those people who are mad about that are wrong and their “criticisms” should be just thrown out. no, i’m talking real criticism. because being upset a series whose reason for existing is to be a faithful adaptation isn’t? not stupid. if you can enjoy the series—in my opinion not all the changes are objectively bad, but many, from a storytelling angle? from pure craftsmanship? are objectively bad—regardless, i’m happy for you. truly, if you feel the joy and magic the original series gave me while watching this show, i am overjoyed someone feels the magic. that’s more magical to me, worth more, than the show itself. but if you then insult me for not enjoying the show? tell me i must not love the story as much as you? tell me i am simply looking to hate the newest next thing, and not that i adore this series so much it pains me to see it so? that i don’t wish to see it succeed regardless of the betrayal i feel?

silly me, i thought our shared love of something meant we could all express it, even in different ways. but i guess not. i guess many of the series’ fans are just keen to discuss the show with the same bad faith it was made in.

#once again. does not apply to all enjoyers of the show or those defending it. #literally one of my points is i’m infuriated by these generalizations of character #do not put words in my mouth #the best part of this show to me is the fandom interaction but that doesn’t mean i don’t also take issue with certain fans #even people in my personal life who have asked me for a full debrief of my thoughts and then been. annoyed?? #when that includes what i didn’t like? #acting as if i have this responsibility to not share my true thoughts because it ruins the mood? kills your excitement? when you ASKED ME?? #that’s my own personal gripe but i feel like a similar thing is happening across the fandom space #don’t tell me i can talk about the show but only if i have nice things to say #percy jackson and the olympians #pjo show crit #pjo show #percy jackson show #pjo #percy jackson tv show #ris raves

very odd that i even have to say this but. for the record i do not ever condone sending someone anonymous hate on tumblr.com and quite frankly i think doing so makes u a loser + a shitty person. i am a grownup + do not want to be involved in anything as stupid + juvenile as bullying someone via anonymous tumblr messages so if u are for some unfathomable reason using me/my name as an excuse to send hate to someone. please fuck off lol

#i come here to chill + vibe #sometimes 2 rant + rave #i'm not here to get involved in anyone's petty drama #and quite frankly i find it odd that there are people keeping tabs on like. the interactions i + others have on this site #like that is weird behavior just fuck off lmao #txt

CLOSED STARTER FOR: @musingmixtape ! BASED ON: this and this !

"ANOTHER MURDER ." rave exclaims with a squint at their phone, brows furrowing at as they read through the town news update . "oh, this is getting fucked ." the face on the article looks familiar, but that goes without saying . in a town this small, there wasn't a face that didn't look at least mildly familiar for miles . that said, did she know the guy and feel deeply pained that he was dead ? no . "okay, i think it's officially time to employ the buddy system ." a pause before rave is nodding in their direction to almost diplomatically quip, "for your own good, of course ."

#rave / interactions . #i hope this works friend < 33 we love a slasher vibe !! pls let me know if i should change anything !

[lilacwiine]

continued from here for @angclnumber

"successful?" tamsin snorts, "that's suggesting that she can do something right..." she lowers her voice for that, at least. she knows making enemies in this place probably isn't a good idea but holding her tongue is something she isn't good at. poor rave is stuck with dealing with the brunt of her need to speak all the time. "if i'm going to die out here, it is not going to be because of her — we'll have to take shifts sleeping if her glares become any more threatening."

#tamsin|interaction. #tamsin and rave. #angclnumber #aaaah yes i love that !!

[futchgunk]

okay if i dont talk about this somewhere im gonna explode

im so fucking cut up about finding my headphones on my neighbor on the T, and having not contacted me about them at all!! They were a present from my lover and i didnt even recognize them as lost bc i thought i could trust my neighbors to be like 'hey these wireless headphones showed up at this house, are these yours we r trying to find the owner'. This was extra damaging for me bc i get really sensitive abt losing things bc of my biomom so like i didnt want to confront me losing a gift my lover got me, esp when i didnt even know where to start looking.

This is the same group of people who i was ostracized by and the biggest reach of support to me during my ostracization was 'im so sorry this is happened/happening to you'. It feels so transphobic!! it feels.. racist??!! it feels like transmisogynoir coming from the tranny eggpunk band AND the tranny hardcore band. like i feel like never knew these people that ive been hanging around with for a year+. i feel like all the love, time, and energy i had was just me making a clown out of myself to entertain more white people. like i got so enraged and upset about this i had to ask my alter to front so i could avoid exhausting myself crying over it and feel some sense of control/stability.

im so angry and a lost rn. as a tpoc im noticing my survival (social confirmity) to bend and shape myself to accomodate white fragility and im so sick of it. like i feel like social injustice has been done to me and instead of talking about it or feel any sense of catharis, i have to swallow hot viscous, bile and choke the tears down, say i dont feel degraded, pick up my pieces and find more koolaid to drink.

like if im gonna get demonized by both majority society and non-marginalized society, i might as well be where i wanna be and do what i wanna do and look how i wanna look because it wont fucking matter what everyone else thinks im just a rock too heavy to hold on to; a demon unwelcome en masse.

it hurts so much bc im trying to be a voice for community and community praxis. like i want to be able to help anyone if someone asks. welcome newcomers and oldtimers. i want to dissipate structures in your life, if even just for a moment. if i could make you a meal just so you could use the time for meal prep for whatever you wanted. i want to do your chores for you, if youre okay with it, even if we have never talked about it. i want to help you move along your life-goals/journey/passion. if you told me an arbitrary action would bear fruit for you, i will treat the soil and sew the seeds, not caring about whether or not i would get any fruit.

theres a feeling that im trying to describe. when youre held so still and taut and exhausted. so flush with exertion that you would cut your strings/supports just to feel the cool rush of air just for a moment, unthinking about how far the fall is. but you just one some semblance of control, an iota of self-determined significant action, no matter the magnitude of (perceived) self-destruction.

idk i would start all over again and make new friends but that means that transmisogny wins again?!! in my own fucking backyard!! transgirls can be complicit in transmisogny and the black transgirl is the victim!! how rich??!! right before the whipping girl reading group how fucking ironic.

#u can interact w this post #im gonna talk to my best friend about this on thursday #im feeling like i never wanna go to any koqueen or nursejoy gig ever again #i wanna go to the next koqueen and yawn throughout the set and burn my shirt #i think i would have so much more fun at ska shows or raves #transmisogyny #transmisogynoir

[the-hilda-librarians-wife]

In my hometown right now and catching up with people I’ve been close to my whole life but don’t talk as much anymore and it’s INSANE. Friend x will off-handedly remark having pulled 40 people at college while friend y will recount the most convoluted story of a guy trying to get her attention across multiple social events. And then they ask me what I’ve been up to and I’m just like welp. You would Not Believe the amount of fanfiction I’ve written these past few months. Posted on every day of Sketchbook Week and everything. I lead a wild life, if you even care

#I’ve known these girls since we were 3 we were raised together what HAPPENED #(to me I mean; I’m aware they’re the ones in the normaler side sgksbsjsbs) #while you were busy having age appropriate development and healthy amounts of social interaction #I was being Really Weird about cells and raving about an animated ship online #we aren’t built the same. unfortunately. #‘I stayed up until 7am at a party this Saturday. my goal was to stay until 10am but I didn’t manage :(‘ #this is fascinating and I love you but consider this: it’s 10pm rn and I already can’t stand being awake anymore #‘let’s do something together tomorrow!’ you want me to go out TWO DAYS IN A ROW???? #not hilda #wife speaks

Caleb for ask game

Opinion: The perfect character. The way they've given him such a clear personality and character while NEVER SAYING A WORD and only visibly being in like 3 episodes for not even a minute at a time? top tier character writing what the FUCK. you can tell what parts of the story were Most Important for Dana to show akljhfLFJALSJFKA. I love how they did the whole "all he did was love too much" trope while allowing his character to be shown as seeming mournful and almost bitter at his brother for killing him. I feel like usually with that trope, even in the ghost-way they're often shown as this angelic, forgiving being after death (i.e. early seasons mary winchester ghost), but Caleb is shown looking down at his brother is disgust and disappointment. I LOVE it i LOVE Caleb, would love to hear him talk one day but god if he sounds like Hunter I might have a full on meltdown

HC: I know it's basically canon, but he loves his wife so much. Evelyn is off shaking down travelers for snails and eating little critters Eda-style and Caleb is just over there like

I also really want him to have been Ghost Caleb, not Hallucination Caleb because HC that he has watched and welcomed home once killed each and every Golden Guard. His colony of sons. Sometimes they remind him a little to much of Evelyn or their child he never got to meet and it Hurts, but instead of being bitter he loves each and every one. Watching over Hunter without being able to do anything to warn him of the abuse that's to come or be able to stop his brother. The joy of him seeing Flapjack for the first time after 400 years when he finds his way to Hunter. Just. SO MUCH LEFT TO KNOW ABOUT CALEB AND I ALREADY LOVE HIM SO, SO MUCH.

#STILL GOING THRU THESE SORRY IM BAD AT EXISTING #asks #anons #ask game #toh #the owl house #caleb wittebane #I DONT TALK ABT IT MUCH HERE but i literally. am feral over caleb and evelyn #i just dont like how half the fandom portrays them so i am very Picky abt the art i interact with lmao #evelyn clawthorne #and to go further. my joke post from a year ago of prev gg ghosts watching after hunter and teasing him. about his human partners #only to find out. yes canon supports your goof. they most certainly did #obsessed with all the new gg's love lives #how many prev gg's were killed for falling in love with a witch? for philip to over time see them as less and less human to the point where #his last gg falls in love with two humans but now THATS a problem bc this Creation of horrific Wild Magic is now corrupting- #two Innocent Humans #Not to rant and rave about the time in the castle but.

@roxiemarsh where: g's rave

it didn't take long for alethea to find roxie, the same sort of draw that they had felt to greer but...entirely different. if you tried to get her to explain, she'd stammer through her words and mention something about just associating them because they were roommates. not that it was anything more or deeper than that. against their better judgement they move toward her, small shy smile spreading across their lips as they step up next to her. "hey roxie." she manages out, flicking her hair over her shoulder as she glances across the crowd to ease her nerves. she can't face her completely and alethea hates it. "you having a good night?" so generic, so bland, so boring alethea. "you look uh, really pretty too. by the way." the short bursts of word vomit make her cringe internally but it's all she can do in that moment.

[jacqui-velazquez]

who: @morrisxn02 when: early evening, jacqui's birthday where: waverly #201

Jacqui had music pounding as they got ready for the evening, hardly paying attention to how much the bass was rattling the walls. Perhaps incosiderate, considering their living situation (dorms and their thin walls, that is), but it was their birthday, their night as far as they were concerned, and they were listening to the music with little care, their voice weaving through the noise as they sang along absentmindedly while styling their hair. They were sitting on the floor in front of a mirror, makeup and hair products sprawled around them as the current song playing came to a close, the decrescendo bringing attention to the knocking on the door - the impatience Jacqui was practically able to hear in the raps leading her to believe they had been knocking for a minute, getting up and bouncing to the door to swing it open - expecting an RA or a disgruntled neighbor (not Monty, obviously but...someone on the floor above or that uptight girl down the hall or something). Not Edward Morrison. "Shit, sorry. Was the music too loud?" Jacqui said with a wince, hitting pause on their phone before the next song could really pick up as they leaned against the door.

[rollercoasterwords]

I agree with it all, about the Content problem in fanfic. Besides the example of the Jegulus Strike. People aren't striking because they want more comments or better reviews. They strike because people abuse them because of the art they want to make as they see fit. Because they are tired of being sent death threads and likes. So rather, the strike can be seen as a reaction to the contentification and the aggressive demand for tailor-made fics that don't cause the slightest bit of unease.

totally get that, and that's why i think it was well-intentioned! i'm gonna try to be like...as clear as i possibly can be about why i included it as an interesting example of the sort of internalized producer/consumer culture that we're all being conditioned to use as our framework for interacting w media.

the reason i included the strike as an example of that culture was because it was the same framework, i think, manifesting in a different way. i understood that the impulse behind it was to say "hey!! you guys are treating us badly!! stop it!!" and i don't think any of the people involved were focused on comments or reviews or anything--like, i get that the intention was to try and stand up to harassment.

but to call it a strike is to frame that action within a producer/consumer economy, because a strike positions certain people--in this case, fanfic writers--as laborers and producers, working at the behest of other people--in this case, fanfic readers. that premise already doesn't really work with fanfic, because readers are writers and writers are readers, so there's not a super clear delineation between who is producing and consuming the "product". but a strike places those lines in the sand, and in doing so it reinforces the idea that there are distinct producers and consumers, and that fanfiction is a product for consumption. otherwise, why would it hurt to withhold that product from consumers?

and like, that's what i mean when i say that we are all being conditioned to think this way about media, and if we aren't careful it's really easy to just internalize this producer/consumer culture. because my impression of the strike is that it was sort of a response to the negative side of this consumer culture that was still working within the framework of that consumer culture. like, i saw people saying: hey!! you're treating our stories like a product for YOUR consumption, and that's bad! so we will be withholding those products from your consumption!! and like....that action only works in that context if we're all agreeing that fanfiction is a product for consumption, because striking is inherently tied to a consumer economy. so while well-intentioned, it still falls into the trap of reinforcing this dichotomy between producers/consumers, with fanfiction as the product in the middle. does that make sense?

and like, while most of the stuff i saw about the strike was people trying to draw attention to harassment, i definitely saw some stuff that was very deeply rooted in this producer/consumer mindset. like, i saw a few posts saying things along the lines of "if you DON'T participate in this strike, you DON'T care about your community," and to me that just seemed a little silly, because with fanfiction your readers are supposed to be your community. like...do you get what i'm saying? if you're truly viewing your readers as a community, and not a consumer audience, then who does it benefit to "withhold" the product/labor/etc? and i understand that the issue was that writers were getting a bunch of readers who were treating themselves like a consumer audience and interacting with the fic that way, but like. if the issue is that someone is approaching you like a consumer, responding in a way that reinforces their position as a consumer isn't necessarily going to address the root of the issue, y'know?

anyway, that's why i included the strike in my discussion about Content and producer/consumer mentality--because most of my examples were coming from the end of people treating their fics like products in like...a positive way? like, falling into the trap of consumer culture in a way that sort of embraces it. but the strike, to me, was an example on the opposite end of the spectrum, of trying to push back against the negative impact of that consumer culture without digging all the way down to the consumer culture itself. like...one end of the spectrum is sitting contentedly in the trap, and the other is struggling in the trap, but they are both still very much stuck within the trap. hopefully that makes sense!

#and again my observations on these things is not me trying to make normative judgments about them #like the point of my post about Content was to say #if you only ever treat your work like a product for others to consume it will probably not bring you very much joy #yknow? #like the reason i'm talking about this whole produce/consumer mindset stuff isn't to point fingers at anyone #or be like YOU'RE doing fanfiction WRONG #it's just me reflecting on how we're being conditioned to view art #and offering my own opinion that i think it will probably make us happier in the long run #if we try to avoid the trap of producer/consumer economy thinking #and instead focus on fanfiction as a community space outside that economy #some people disagree with me and think it's a good think that fanfiction is being moved into the mainstream producer/consumer economy! #and that's fine i don't agree but i get why some people feel differently #but just...yeah my original post was only ever a call for reflection it wasn't me trying to say there's a Correct Way to interact w fanfic #ranting and raving
