Hi Hezu! It’s been a while, Hope you’re doing Well 😊 since the Blaech TYBW Arc is getting Animated👀(more excited to see the Animation), There are Questions I Got to Ask! What would happen if Ichigo Took Rukia instead of Orihime to Face Yhwach? Would it have changed The story that we Currently have or Remain The Same? (To Me, I Think The Main Characters Ichigo and Rukia should Ended The Final Arc As They Are “🖤The Death and Stawberry🍓” Plus They Started The journey and shouldn’t They have finished the Journey Together as Well? I don’t know The Ending in The Manga was Messed up for Me😖) and Also How Would You have Rewritten TYBW Arc? Sorry That There are to many Questions😅😔

Ah! I almost forgot to Mention, Have you Heard about “Vanitas no Carte”?🤔 it’s Anime About Vampires and More🦋

So the whole thing with Ichigo and Yhwach was already a bit of a mess, what with him stealing Ichigo's powers, the Fullbringers kinda just showing up as a Deus Ex Machina... and the overall rush of the storyline just didn't fit as a finale. I would have completely rewritten BLEACH's final arc so it wouldn't have come down to Ichigo chasing Yhwach through a portal. Anyway, Rukia, despite being more powerful than Orihime, probably wouldn't have made a whole lot of difference in the fight. Her bankai is too dangerous to use on an unpredictable enemy. Her ice powers might have proved more useful than Orihime's powers, but overall I don't think she would have won them the war. She could have very well become an injured damsel in distress too. It is very weird that Renji of all people comes along to the final battle, and not like... ALL of them. Out of everyone, Renji is the one who doesn't belong in the main cast, but they always act like he does. He wronged pretty much every member of Karakura in some way, and he's never made up for it. Rukia spent time in the world of the living and time with the Karakura team  when Renji hasn't. (Even when he did, he spent it with Urahara, who is also a shinigami) So he can't relate to any of them. He may be one of Ichigo's rivals but its just very random for him to come in to assist Ichigo, especially when in the end he barely puts up a fight before Aizen has to interfere. Well for one, to fix the arc, I would have honestly had Yhwach kidnap Ichigo, brainwash him, and train him as a proper Quincy, because Uryu is really useless here. I feel like Uryu, once he realizes Ichigo has been captured and Ichigo is a QUINCY, Uryu would finally have a purpose and kick it into high gear to try and help not only himself but also Ichigo. He's gotta drop his secret agent nonsense with Yhwach to try and get Ichigo out unscathed, which involves needing the help of the other members of Karakura. I’d fix Bazz B and Jugram’s friendship. Maybe have Jugram turn against Yhwach for the sake of Bazz B in the end. (I’d fix a lot of other Quincy characters too, to make them more likable and relatable because honestly I don’t care about any of them) There wouldn't be zombies in the way they were introduced. X-axis guy would never turn into giant mitosis birds because what the fucking hell was that I'd also have more flashbacks explaining the soul king, on top of Yhwach's actual overall plans. Aizen escapes. He never gets back in that chair. At some point maybe ichigos powers go haywire because yhwach is controlling his Quincy side and that clashes with his hollow. Any excuse to see more zangetsu. Maybe Quincy Zangetsu gives up because he knows its inevitable that Yhwach will win, but Ichigo and Hollow Zangetsu manage to convince him. Ichigo gets a badass complete bankai, a perfect fusion of ALL his powers that Yhwach never foresaw, and destroys the man. (See the Bleach Brave Souls all powerful version of Ichigo for reference) Ichigo becomes Soul King, or maybe even Aizen becomes the Soul King. Whoever becomes the next Soul King is placed in Stasis, unable to move or speak……. Or maybe that whole thing is tossed out and they can freely walk around the Zero Squad Barracks. If Ichigo doesn’t become Soul King, then he at the very least would no longer be allowed to return to the human world and he’d probably become a captain, resparking the Shiba family Noble line.

Side note but I’d explain what on Earth was going on with Komamura’s family history, I’d probably kill Toushiro or make him ill (his life was cut in half and he becomes an adult for some really weird reason when he goes bankai… like I know hes the most popular BLEACH character in Japan but he’s been through way too much to come out unscathed like that) Nemu and Mayuri would have never had that creepy Stockholm syndrome chapter sequence. Absolutely kill off Mayuri. Maybe Nemu could take over as the new squad captain in his place. Ichigo’s friends’ tickets would actually be usable and have meaning despite the horrible timing they received them. Orihime and/or Hachigen fix Captain Kyouraku’s eye (because wtf why is that not fixed yet. Like yeah , eye patches are cool but sir there’s people who can fix that for you. Right there. Even Nemu could probably make one for you. Fix it.) Neliel and Grimmjow would have gotten a fight scene against some powerful Quincy, maybe see some Segunda Etapa forms from them. Def a lot more bankais from other characters, especially Hisagi, whose bankai was hinted at, but never received until the novel. 

And probably so much more. I would have rewritten the entire Fullbring arc as well. Given Orihime and Chad proper upgrades. I would have never separated the gang as much as Kubo has the past decade... There’s just so much to fix.  ~~~

I've heard of Vanitas no Carte and I've seen some episodes. It looks really pretty and it seems like something I could get into. The main character sorta reminds me of Lelouch. Unfortunately, the anime has a major tonal dissonance problem. One moment it's very serious or scary, and the next the characters have a complete 180 comedic reaction, and it seems to happen constantly to the point where I'm taken out of the story because of it. And I'm also confused on the direction of it. It seems to tease a romantic subtext with the main characters, Vanitas and Noe, but they both actually have girlfriends??? That they are super romantically involved with? But the girls don't have as much screen time or an overarching plot that truly relates to main characters' overall story? I mean I haven't watched the full thing, so maybe I'm missing something, but we spend a good chunk of time focusing on those relationships instead of the plot at hand and I don’t understand what their purpose in the story is. So I could check it out, but I think it won’t be something I’ll be able to stick to.

#bleach #bleach tybw #TYBW #vanitas no carte #im annoyed at the vanitas anime because everytime i type in vanitas #wanting vanitas from kingdom hearts #i get blue eyed vampire boy over here #like yeah hes pretty too but my boy vanitas... wheres my punk yellow eyed vanitas... #ask #long post #text post

RAVEN: The truth is that “truth” is hard to come by. A story of victory for one person is a story of defeat for someone else. By now, your uncle has surely told Ruby and her friends plenty of stories.

[…]

RAVEN: Old man Oz has a great and terrible secret, one that could spread fear across the world, one that he eventually entrusted to our team. And once I knew, there was no going back. I needed to know more, but with every new discovery I made, the more horrifying the world became.

YANG: Okay, then tell us. What’s the big secret? What’s so crazy that the rest of us don’t know?

RAVEN: The creatures of grimm have a leader named Salem. She can’t be stopped, she can’t be reasoned with, and she will not rest until humanity crumbles at her feet.

[…]

YANG: Why should we believe any of this?

RAVEN: *Now* you’re catching on. So far you’ve done nothing but accept what others tell you, but you need to question everything.

+

“The Girl in the Tower” is unique among fairy tales in that it is the only one in which the protagonist is credited with penning their own story; the girl essentially writes herself out of danger. It is steeped in an awareness of the nature of fairy tales and, in a sense, its own status as one of them. As a metafiction, this tale more than any other in this collection demonstrates the power of stories to create reality and shape our destinies, and the subtle influence storytellers have over their audiences.

This is how propaganda works, of course. Arguably, every fable was originally told for a purpose, either overt or hidden. Some were designed to communicate a moral lesson or instruct children on how to behave, while others were meant as warnings or to persuade people into believing a certain thing. The girl in the tower shared a version of her story intended to elicit sympathy and motivate people to come to her aid—but in the process she also doomed many warriors to die in the attempt. Her story did not include the whole truth, and how much of it might have been false? One must always be prepared to think about and question everything they read or hear, especially if they are told that it is the absolute truth.

🤔

the first thing ozpin asks yang upon catching her and weiss up to speed on his version of the truth is if his narrative aligns with what raven told them, and excepting the bird thing it does; which is interesting because ozpin LIED. half of what he tells the kids in volume five is a provable lie and the remainder is suspect for having come from him—and the story raven fed weiss and yang after making a whole production of letting them in on the truth and flat out saying don’t take ANYTHING at face value perfectly corroborates ozpin’s.

but before yang left her camp, raven told her this: “I’m giving you a choice. Stay here, with me, and I’ll answer all your questions and more. We can have a fresh start. Or… you can go back to Qrow and join Ozpin’s impossible war against Salem, and meet the same fate as so many others. But can you really go back to trusting someone that’s kept so much from you?”

i—think the things she told them were a test. the very things ozpin told *team STRQ,* all those years ago, before raven began to search for answers on her own and discovered the truth was so much more horrifying than she knew. she presents this narrative to weiss and yang as if that’s the secret, and then praises them for demanding proof, for questioning—

and in doing so raven echoes ozpin’s commentary on the girl in the tower, thus becoming the narrative voice for the power-of-storytellers theme in the show proper, as it pertains to salem’s character; which in connection with the unknown of precisely what raven knows…

…i really do think she found out about the ultimatum somehow, and while the obvious source for that information is salem, raven puts SO MUCH emphasis on the implication that she went digging for information herself and… it is not… inconceivable that she might have learned by some other means. ozma has been remarkably successful at suppressing this inform—

wait. people still worship the brothers. (the only way this could have happened is if OZMA started it, in one of his lives. modern brother-worship was instigated BY HIM) “the two brothers” is a religious myth and the ultimatum an open secret. all raven would need to do is catch ozpin’s confirmation that the brothers are real and then read between the lines in order to start putting two and two together, and HOO BOY would that explain some things about why raven is the way she is, if she’s never spoken to salem and her perspective of the situation formed out of applying ozpin’s crumbs to myth and legends and fragments of history until she began to get a sense of the bigger picture. question everything indeed.

and—goddd if this is how it happened, her teammates probably would’ve taken it as raven spiraling into conspiracy theories because like… if she never spoke to salem she has no proof. tai saying she tore the team apart raven bitterly saying she said ozpin would fail, beacon would fall…

hm. HMMM.

#does raven KNOW or does she have an unhinged conspiracy board stashed away somewhere

Can I just say you're my favourite writer for the Ted Lasso fandom?? 😊🥰 Every time I see your name pop up in my email it's a delight!

I have a headcanon I wanna run by you if you'll indulge me for a moment, I'm very interested in your perspective on it 👀👀.

The reason Jamie gives for not getting a secret Santa gift doesn't make sense to me, like I could see an initial confusion if he'd never heard of it before but he should have known that he was expected to do SOMETHING, and season 2 Jamie would've asked someone if he didn't know what he was supposed to do (I love that season 2 Jamie actually asks for help, insert "y'know what that is? Growth" meme here 😭❤️). BUT I think the reason he gives is probably what he thinks other people would accept as a reason that makes sense for him, and he's just using it as a smoke screen! My personal headcanon is that he thought Santa would STAY SECRET and he didn't realize they would be giving their gifts all publicly and he's embarrassed for people to know what gift he brought. Not sure what gift it would've been, but with everyone else gifting booze I could see him being embarrassed about literally anything that wasn't booze 🤔. No one else is really talking about this but that scene just doesn't settle right in my brain. Do you have any thoughts on what gift he may have purchased in this version of events? Or do you have a different idea of what was happening there?

Sorry for the monster ask lol but I love how you write Jamie's thought process! (I know this isn't in the form of a prompt, but if you answered in mini fic format I would be positively tickled!!)

Jamie knows what Secret Santa is, of course he does. It’s just, well. He hadn’t realised they’d be giving the gifts out publicly, and now his feels way too personal. Nearly everyone else so far has handed over a bottle of booze. Moe had knitted a scarf, sure, and Colin had seemed pleased by it, but there had still been a moment of “is this weird” before he’d hugged Moe and Jamie doesn’t want that for him.

The day after the Dubai Air protest all the main papers had carried photos of their protest, mostly in the Sports section, but the Guardian had actually had it on their front page. Jamie had seen it while out buying a coffee the next day and he’d bought a copy. It had seemed important, a reminder of him doing the right thing, supporting his teammate in something that meant a lot to him.

And then he’d gotten Sam in the Secret Santa and it had seemed perfect. He’d had the front page properly framed - after checking that the Guardian was the kind of paper Sam might agree with politically - and wrapped it nicely. 

But now, well, it feels too personal to give out in front of the rest of the team. What if they think it’s weird or cheap of him? So it’s a relief when Ted finds him a bottle of whisky and they all help him wrap it. He knows they think he’s an idiot for not knowing what Secret Santa is, but better than any awkwardness in front of the team.

Sam seems chuffed by the alcohol anyway, and he sticks the bow that Keeley had added at the end to the top of his head, so Jamie makes it through without any embarrassment. At the end he hangs back and waits for the room to empty out before digging his original gift out of his cubby and tucking it into Sam’s. He doesn’t want it to go to waste, and he’s pretty sure Sam won’t guess it’s from Jamie. That done he heads out to his car ready for the drive up to Manchester and Christmas with his mum. He’s definitely gone overboard with her gifts, but she’s used to that by now, barely puts up a token protest or anything.

#THANK YOU FOR THE NICE WORDS #I definitely hadn't thought of this as a headcanon before #I just took it as a classlic little comic realif bit lol #but this was a cute idea #and I hope you like my attempt at a prompt fill for it #fandom: ted lasso #jamie tartt #ted lasso fic #sam obisanya

RULES: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! and then tag as many people as you have WIPS. 

Tagged by the ever-awesome @authortobenamedlater Thank you!

Wow, this is actually a first. I don’t have any new WIPs from the last time I did this one. AND I’ve actually crossed the oldest one off the list and started posting some of the others! *high fives self*

Well, I guess we can just look at those and cross a few off the list officially, then!

Sexy Time Wraiths are totally in this year *nods* 😛 (The Flash)

ZOMG finish this already won't you plzzzz 😭 (The Flash) “Cupid’s Kiss” (NSFW) (Caitlin/Eobard) finished

Is it a threesome if two of the people are different versions of the same person? 🤔 (The Flash)

Ah yes, knee-deep in utter filth and humor, just the way I like it 😳😂 (The Flash) “The Price” (NSFW) (Caitlin/Hunter|Zoom) in progress

The blue lady ships it 😛 (Halo series) Answered last time

Slow burn and I’m loving it, nobody asked for a time reference in every chapter but I’ve been doing it anyway 🤷‍♀️😉 (Halo series) Answered last time

Yeah, so this way I don't have to feel bad about shipping myself I mean the Reader with the entire frickin’ team *adjusts halo* 😇 (Halo gameverse)

Let’s be honest, he’s probably going to knit her a scarf (Halo series)

I wasn't sure if I should make a funny scene out of a war crime 👀 Guess I'll have to AU the war crime part out, yep *nodnod* (Halo series) Answered last time

Yeah so if Spartans went into heat, I’d probably write it like this... (Halo gameverse) Answered last time

...or like this (Halo gameverse, different game) Answered last time

...or possibly like this (Halo series) 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ Answered last time

So that leaves the ones in bold that are getting ready to have a new chapter added or who haven’t yet had their first chapter posted. I also removed one that I really have no plans to ever write and officially post. Honestly, y’all have heard me talk about all of the ones that are left so I don’t blame you for skipping this one this time around. 🤷‍♀️

I’m not really sure what it means that I have NO new ideas for any fandom right now. It’s a bit scary, actually. But, on the other hand, if I can finish the ones I have in progress, then if it does mean I won’t be doing any further writing, well, at least I can close up shop knowing I did my best to not leave anything undone. 🤷‍♀️

If you’d like to do this one, then you know what to do. *boops your nose politely* 😉

#fanfic wip ask game #wip ask game #ask game #i'm just so tired #it feels like there's just not enough energy left to power the fangirl part of my brain these days #it's all i can do to try to finish these in progress #i just feel driven to Be Done #i can't walk away with so much i want to conclude #but there's nothing left for new ideas #maybe when halo's second season starts i'll feel inspired again? #there's the final snowells week coming up too and i want to participate in that #beyond that though is just darkness stretching to nowhere #i dunno #this is not a happy place to be #ageless aislynn

Liam and Kiara?

B

I mean, there are grounds for it to work. They're both cerebral, both have mothers who were/are invested in the arts and creative mediums, they'd have plenty to say on the basis of conversation alone. Kiara as Queen would be someone who would be a treasure trove when it came to knowledge on culture and diplomacy, and Liam would possibly match her in terms of interest and knowledge. I can see them as complementing each other.

As with Hana, Liam tends to also be on the more emotional side, and Kiara's practicality and no nonsense approach would balance that out. I can see both this couple and Hana x Kiara as the kind of couples that could talk for hours but never get bored.

Unfortunately, canon seems to have a bit of an obsession with not allowing Liam to even interact with Kiara on his own. Not once in the original series do we see them talking, even when they occupy the same space. Even Madeleine and Penelope are allowed a chat or two with Liam (there are at least 3 times Penelope is seen talking to him in Book 1 - though the edit team did take out one scene of hers with him in Ch 4, and Madeleine is given many interactions with him during their short-lived engagement), but multiple scenes go by without any exchange between Kiara and Liam.

1. Penelope interacts with him at the Masquerade (in a scene now edited out of current versions), at Lythikos and during the gift ceremony. Olivia is even allowed to force a kiss on the man! Madeleine chooses to ignore him until it threatens her position as frontrunner, then tries the most to grab his attention at his Coronation Ball. Kiara has zero interactions in Book 1 with him.

2. During the gift-giving ceremony, we see every suitors' gift except two - Hana's and Kiara's. Even Penelope's golden poodles is showcased as a comic moment.

3. The closest Liam and Kiara come to any "conversation" in TRR2 is in Ch 4 when Liam introduces the ladies of the court to Rashad and Neville. Even then, it is interesting that this is no two way conversation, and Liam introduces Penelope and Kiara together.

4. In TRR3, the writing team goes to the extent of writing Kiara out of a scene that she should be having with Liam in his playthrough, by replacing her with her father Hakim. The armoury scene at Lythikos allows for Kiara to chat with all the LIs in their respective playthroughs, except for two. Maxwell, who is hiding in the armoury with the MC...and Liam. In Liam's playthrough it is Hakim who talks to him.

5. Only the MC (and briefly, Penelope) speaks to Kiara about her father's refusal to come to the wedding, in Castelserraillan. Liam is not part of this conversation even though Kiara's injury - at his ball! - is a major reason Hakim scheduled their trip to Switzerland at the same time. Liam - bizzarely enough - is shown talking to Zeke and showing interest in learning more about him.

6. Now this is one of the rare times I am grateful Liam is written out of interactions with the ladies of the court. In Lythikos, Kiara is actively suspected by the group. Liam is not part of these conversations. He is conveniently dancing with Olivia when Kiara tells the group she is leaving, and both Liam and Hana are mysteriously absent - thank God - when the MC and Drake interrogate her at the Winter Festival).

7. Post TRR2, it could be understandable why Liam isn't given any scenes with Kiara. He is written out of most scenes that involve ladies of the court, except for Olivia (in certain playthroughs, the narrative notes an interest in her from his end). He is not involved in the attempts to convince Madeleine and Penelope in TRR3. But with Kiara the case is vastly different because she was never allowed scenes with interactions even when she was eligible to court him!

Kiara is basically never given the opportunity to talk to the man she is in the running to marry...even though white women in her position can. What could it all mean? Hmm. Hmm. 🤔

Even in TRH, any conversation between Kiara and Liam winds up happening just in his playthrough - in the scenes where she is speaking to the MC and her LI...which means that she is likely speaking more to the MC than Liam. Those scenes are coded such that he gives a response as "the spouse", not as an individual character.

Very unfortunately, this practice of keeping Kiara - and Kiara only - at an arm's length extends to the exchanges she is allowed with the heir as well. She is the only courtly lady who is purposefully written as not having any physical contact of any sort with the child. Meanwhile "Auntie Pen" can almost drop a sword on said child during her christening and give her bonbons at an age when she can't even have solid foods. The only time Kiara is allowed any contact of any sort is by option, if the heir chooses her in TRH3 to read Fat, fat Kitty to her. Even Madeleine is allowed an entire scene to babysit the child to win her favour but somehow we treat Kiara as if she isn't worthy of holding our child.

I know in the original series people may have assumed there was no ill-intent behind Kiara's lack of actual scenes with the man she was supposed to be courting, but by now there is no doubt in my mind that this was done by design. From the team's writers. And actively encouraged by a largely-racist fandom.

So...it's a pair that would have promise in fanfic (and I recall reading a pretty good one by @dcbbw recently! Warning: it's NSFW) and there's plenty you can explore there. Personally I find it not as A+ as Hana x Kiara (teehee. teehee) ...but it's a good pair that could really work if one was so inclined to write it.

Rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have wips. I have deemed that this isn’t just for writing either. Sketch titles? Comics? Dnd campaigns? If you have an unfinished project, it counts

Okay, so... Full disclosure. I almost always have my WIPs with a temporary title or just a generic “Untitled [character or ship name] Fic” with the date started. SO! To make this more interesting, I’m going to make up a descriptive title for each of the WIPs with the fandom but not the character or ship it involves. Hopefully that’ll be more fun than a list of untitleds. 😉

Some of these have had one or more chapter posted, others live only on my computer’s hard drive. And a few lurk only in my head and probably will never see the light of day. 😳😉
