Literally me when the Character Song Album was announced and now that the tracklist has been revealed

How-

HOW?!?!?!

Moffun and Moffun no Uta doesn't represent Rita at all?!?! It's literally the opposite of their character?!?!

And Racles and the Retainers aren't getting any despite how crucial they are to the character plots?!?!

TOEI! WHEN I GET YOU, TOEI!!!

I met Ian Sinclair at Metrocon on Friday and I choked so badly when I got up to his booth that my friend had to remind me to spell my fucking name

#ian sinclair #one piece #brook #brook one piece #soul king brook #this was after the fact I FORGOT MY NAME WHEN HE ASKED #my social anxiety was in the fucking AETHER MAN #Don't think it helped I said 'join my pirate crew' when i first walked up because I was Luffy #how do i cope #im done for #never going to a convention again /j #BUT I LOVE THE AUTOGRAPH #AND I GOT A PIC WITH HIM #HE WAS SO SWEET MY GOD

What would they do if stuck in a room with the person they’ve been avoiding? - celestial trio (individual answers but. those 3)

okay see the thing is the person altair and canis have been avoiding is rigel and the person rigel has been avoiding is. well. okay altair and canis as well but a highly specific character related to his secret emo backstory works too

altair would simply do what he does in any social interaction!!!!!!!!! aka stand to the wayside and say absolutely nothing unless directly prompted and just kinda look vaguely uncomfortable and scary the whole time. if he had to make small talk he'd keep his words curt and to the point and probably with no small amount of aggression in his tone (9 times out of 10 he doesn't necessarily mean it) (he's not good at small talk) (someone please help him)

canis, by contrast, is a lot more actively sociable and open to conversation! whilst being very awkward and maybe too overly-enthusiastic about it. he's the type to try and make the best out of a bad situation and unless he's refuted he'll be attempting to get along with/tolerate the other person until they're both free. hi im the king of sanctus you've probably heard of me, how are you doing, how's your day been, etc etc. he leaves the scene with suspiciously even more enthusiasm afterwards but at least he can walk the walk about it

rigel is not spending one single minute in this situation. he is prioritizing Leaving. he is simply ripping the door off its hinges and walking away. if he can't do that because it's some sort of social thing or (god forbid) the door is rigel-proof he's going to start metaphorically eating the walls. possibly actually. he's absolutely not going to be the one prompting conversation but unlike altair he will respond and carry it along once it starts. he probably has the raw charisma multiplier to manage for maybe half an hour tops but any longer and he will start trailing off and making bad excuses to leave and stop talking

as a bonus, if all three of them were stuck together with This One Hypothetical Guy they'd all be trying to avoid, canis would be the hard carry of this situation. altair is being altair in the corner and rigel's staying quiet for once in his life going ^u^ and inside he is screaming in a thousand ancient languages nobody who's alive can even understand anymore. canis pastes the biggest smile on his face he can muster (that nobody can even see behind his mask) and acts like everything's fine and dandy for all three of them and then the minute they're each allowed to leave they all scatter to the winds in different directions like lemmings

#thanks for feeding me arrow lol #ask #apf #altair has a reputation in-universe for being this stern and uncaring hideaway that rarely comes out of his dramatic gothic castle #everyone talks about him like he's gonna throw you off a cliff if you do one (1) thing wrong by him. intimidating serpent guy #meanwhile altair in reality is sitting completely silent with anxiety at the restaurant because the waiter got his order wrong #but he's too shy to ask them to fix it #shoutout to that one line from volpi's fic. 'the king of requies? hosting a social event? WILLINGLY?? it's a miracle!' #rigel meanwhile when he cant stand things and/or is avoiding something he is REALLY not standing and/or avoiding things #he's putting his entire rigussy into it #canis is holding this trio's entire actual social braincell. rigel just pretends like he has one to begin with #i love the celestial trio. snake that doesn't want to be here sun that doesn't want to be here bird that doesn't want to be here #love WINS <3

Something interesting about having BPD is that its well-known “black and white thinking” patterns and lack of sense of self can mix together and actually seep into how your mind portrays fictional characters. 😭 Like I will go from thinking a character is the sweetest thing alive to thinking they’re actually super sinister and hiding something. My opinions and views on characters’ personalities change rapidly and randomly and it’s really frustrating to deal with because it makes my portrayal of characters super inconsistent.

It also affected how I felt about Olly back in July 2020 HAHAH. I had this big love-hate relationship with him because I loved him, but he would do things that would make me hate him (indirectly causing Bobby’s death was a big one). I was so mad at him 😭😭😭 and my conflicting feelings stayed for a while until I finally started to have that feeling of love replace everything else.

I still hate his actions though, don’t get me wrong LOL. But I love him for what else he can be and how interesting he is. Thank god he is fictional so I can have a healthy relationship with him 🙏

Just too bad I can’t MAKE UP MY MIND ON HOW HE ACTS!!! SMH! /LH

Thank you to everyone who has filled out my survey for helping me see more opinions and unintentionally give myself a less black-and-white perspective that I so desperately want to snap out of <3

#i love talking about psychology and bpd so literally ask away if you wanna know anything more #just keep in mind i also have severe social anxiety when it comes to 1-on-1 convos so the comments section or askbox is better AHAHAH #king olly #pmtok #rambling

Tango witnessing Etho and Joel’s relationship drama with Bdubs and Impulse and saying “you guys fight that out” before blowing a horn and running away is such an underrated moment

Have you ever come to a part in a story where a character made a choice, for good or for ill, and just reading about that choice and its impact directly influenced your real life outlook?

#I've had a few #But the Honour Chasm scene in The Way of Kings #and Kaladin deciding to try just once more #and deciding that even though he would likely be killed tomorrow #he would learn the men's names before he went to bed so that he could be a good leader to them #changed something in me in terms of charity and hospitality #I struggle with some social anxiety and if I don't click fairly quickly with a person it can be easy for me to add them to my #'probably difficult or scary to interact with' list #but I went to bed crying over Kaladin's choice #because I wanted to be that person #who chooses to love based not on how easy it is to love a person #but because they are worthy of love no matter what #and as we see in the case of Bridge Four that kind of love can be transformative. #I haven't turned into a Kaladin in that regard - I can only dream - but that scene gave me the drive to decide 'I am done with letting #social anxiety dictate to me when I should love and when not. I can take the lead.' #cosmere #way of kings #brandon sanderson #Coreander's Old Books #reflections #choices #life #kaladin stormblessed #stormlight archive

Hey quick question, how do you make friends and develop a support system when you’re neurodivergent and exhausted?

asking for a friend.

I love melanie king on paper, but her actual scenes tend to frustrate me because they create more tension than payoff at the expense of other characters whose payoff we're invested in. That plus I see so many melanie king stans out here hyping up her slaughter-linked addiction to verbal assault and unsolicited belligerence and it never fails to catapult me back to 2013 tumblr arguing that BBC sherlock holmes was actually correct to let himself into people's work place and outings to make a showboating spectacle out of lambasting them

#her flaws are so refreshingly complex why tf would anyone water them down is beyond me #it does such a disservice to her growth an journey to claim she was correct to turn every interaction with Jon into a fight #melanie drew first blood in the first and second interaction thats the truth of it #she could have chosen to walk away #but instead her personality is one who escalates conflict so reflexively that it doesnt immediately register #and then shes left reacting to tension and animosity she doesnt identify as things she created #or at most generous things she fostered #bc shes so overwhelmed by the percieved threat of it bc her obvious social anxiety is off the charts #why tf arent you stanning someone who realized her own baggage wasnt an excuse to hurt people and put in the hours to address it #melanie king #tma #my text post

but i say all that to say that while yes it does seem like the st fandom problem has blown up this past year or so, it has been there since the beginning. 

dacre and grace and eduardo are just like the new targets. and its bullshit but unfortunately with this fandoms track record, also inevitable 

#heads up but ive been real emotional lately about dacres anxiety and like relating to that lmfao #so im a little in my feelings about this #he is so much stronger than me cuz id be ON ONE on social media LET. ME. TELL. YOU. #bitch probably dont even know whats going on good for him #go fuck your hot girlfriend and light your candles or whatever you do you deserve it king lmao

Decided to finally bite the bullet and try drawing my splatoon oc, Check! She's my splatoon 3 player character/new agent 3 and Ive been thinking abt them non stop lol. I simply walked into the fuzzy ooze immediately and was like what if I made that an excuse to make it a furry. And then I did

#keese draws #oc art #oc #ocs #splatoon #splatoon 3 #splatoon oc #anyways another she/they/it king with autism because I cannot be stopped #btw their claws arent like bone or anything from the ooze theyre its og finger tips #I like the octolings have sort of claw like hands hc and I though thatd be a cool design thing but I dont think its communicated well here #but yeah my thought with it initially was to make it look more bear like since the ooze originates from grizz but like also. slit eyes. #anyways I thought itd be fun to make an oc who was effected by the ooze since its described as turning creatures into mamals #and that just has so much more potential for fucked up biology shit than they utalised in game #check only looks mildly fucked up externally but internally hoo boy #also I realised that inklings and octolings probably dont have eyelashes so I though having exagerated eyelashes could be fun for it #I imagine their eyebrows are probably like rough and bristled to try and serve a similar purpose? #or who knows maybe they just have eyes of steel or its somehow less dusty fkfndkfndh #but yeah check rn is fuzzy but also sorra gooey at the same time but theyre slowly becoming less gooey over time #for the record check actually connects with this look way more than their old one because gender and autism and what not but still #struggles with it and other stuff a lot thanks to crippling social anxiety along with some convequencial health issues #wait I should tag this as spoilers uhhh #splatoon 3 spoilers

[scorpiusthedreadless]

hear me out…

even before fourth year, scorpius had some mental health problems. just imagine what life would’ve been like for him after everything went down.

so it’s very clear that he does have anxiety and social anxiety and is most likely neurodivergent. personally, i think he has adhd.

surely, after everything that’s happened, there has to be some kind of trauma he’s left to deal with, and there are certain coping mechanisms he’s picked up along the way.

first of all, there’s no doubt in my mind that he has ptsd. he’s been through a hell of a lot - he erased his best friend from reality, and although only for a moment, he was physically abused by his father in the alternate reality. and of course we can’t forget that he almost had his soul sucked out by a dementor.

also, i think there’s a chance he might have DID. this is because he’s experienced himself living two different lives with totally different people surrounding him. he saw himself in a different way. i feel like this would’ve stuck with him and he can sometimes interchange into this person he once lived as. although not an entirely different person, scorpius from the alternate reality could be seen as his alter.

this one could be as well as or instead of having DID, but i could also seeing have something like schizophrenia. i could imagine him hearing his father’s voice from the alternate reality saying he ‘disgraced the malfoy name’ and he might hallucinate being back in the alternate reality, the dementor that tried to suck out his soul and maybe even delphini.

- the story -

tw: alcoholism, self harm, mention of bullying, mention of death, relapsing, hospital, TRAUMA.

let’s say he does have all these things, and let’s say it’s been two years since astoria died. he and draco are both having a terrible day and only speak to each other when they go to visit her grave. they sit there and cry and hug for a while before going back inside.

about an hour later, draco says he wants to go for a walk to clear his head. scorpius decides to stay home and watch some old tapes of her and draco when they were younger.

draco leaves scorpius alone to watch the tapes, and scorpius gets sad after seeing her face on this day. he has a thought - sometimes albus uses alcohol to get rid of his troubles, maybe it’ll work for me too.

so, scorpius goes down to the liquor cabinet in the basement and grabs a bottle of his fathers strongest vodka. he takes a swig and his face scrunches up in disgust - how do people drink this stuff?

what albus failed to mention to scorpius was:

1) vodka isn’t usually had on its own - you’re meant to mix it with something e.g. lemonade

2) DONT DRINK TOO MUCH.

he downs the whole bottle and feels like he’s drifted away from his body - it’s nice. without thinking, grabs another bottle and cracks it open. he drinks half of that one when he hears his dad come home.

scorpius clears away the evidence (yes he manages to do this even though he’s extremely drunk) and he runs/stumbles up to his room, pretending to be asleep. draco never finds out about the vodka.

alcohol slowly becomes a more and more frequent coping mechanism for scorpius. when he hears things, or sees things, or is just feeling downright depressed, he goes to the liquor cabinet for comfort.

this goes on with no one apart from lily-luna finding out (i headcanon them as being really good friends when him and albus start dating) and the time rolls around when it’s three years since astoria’s death.

with all of the added stress of his mental state and the effects the alcohol is having on him, scorpius finally has one huge breakdown.

the same as last year, he expected his father to go out on a walk and get some fresh air. then, he can go down to the basement and get the alcohol. but this year, draco wants to be there for his son.

scorpius is frustrated by this, but says nothing. draco sees that scorpius seems distant and decides to go out on a walk for an hour. draco tells scorpius this and he seems a little too happy about being left alone. so, he does leave, for about 30 minutes.

scorpius, thinking he has a lot more time than this, goes straight downstairs and cracks open way more bottles than he ever has before. he manages to have 5 bottles of beer and about 3/4 of a bottle of vodka. straight.

draco unlocks the door carefully and hears crying from the basement. he doesn’t want to startle scorpius, so he creeps down slowly to get a better look at what the situation is before he acts.

what he sees terrifies him. he sees scorpius, sitting on the floor, surrounded by smashed bits of glass (from the alcohol bottles), a large piece of glass in his hand, blood dripping from his wrists.

scorpius is used to some lows. his lows from alcohol had never been that bad, but he’d kind of experienced them before. this time, his low state was out of control.

he’d smashed the bottles in rage and he’d accidentally gotten a cut on his wrist. he was worried at first, but the feeling grew nice as the blood ran down his skin.

so, he wanted more of that feeling. he’d picked up a large shard of glass and brought it to his wrist (that’s all im saying because i know this stuff can be triggering).

draco is stunned and has no idea what to do. there are tears streaming down scorpius’s face and he’s thrashing his arms about the place, blood splattering over the room.

all he does in the end is he cradles the drunken scorpius in his arms and gives him the affection he clearly needs. draco eventually decides that he needs to call an ambulance, because the bleeding has gotten worse.

scorpius is taken to st mungo’s, where he is put in a medically induced coma to help heal the cuts and the affects of the alcohol. he wakes up a week later, his father beside him.

scorpius hugs draco tightly and finally tells him everything that’s been going on for the past year. draco feels awful that he didn’t realise anything was wrong, but scorpius tries to make him feel better by saying that only lily figured it out, and that’s just because he let it slip when they were hanging at the train station late at night.

he explains that lily tried to stop him drinking, and it did work for a while, but things got too much when the bullying got worse and exams were building up pressure on him. lily never knew about his relapse until he was brought into the hospital.

together scorpius, draco, albus, lily and rose all do everything they can to get scorpius off of the alcohol. he does relapse a couple times, but there weren’t any more serious situations.

albus and scorpius get engaged only a few years later, and that’s when scorpius quits drinking for good. and then they all live happily ever after <3

Destiny: true introvert

Dream, Death: ambiverts that are actually fucking miserable if they try to act introverted. (Death realized this. Dream…not so much. Despite it being an open secret. Poor Hob. Also his subjects are beyond fed up with his shit.)

Destruction: social introvert

Despair, Delirium: probably ambiverts??

Desire: true extrovert

#sandman fanon #sandman meta #endless siblings #yeah yeah I Know the popular take is that Dream is introverted (and autistic) #but like. [gestures at the sad wet cat clearly lonely and makes hundreds of dreams and nightmares] #nah. he has social anxiety. a massive case of RSD. avoidant as hell to cope maladaptively #and his Own Rules are… ‘is this a good king/proper endless??’ vs something he takes real comfort in #things shift around. including his appearance. (neil once had a wog ask calling him a terrible roommate ‘cause he’d lose shit.) #so uh. dream’s inattentive adhd. #death is the autistic one #(she’s just gotten a lot better at masking and managing it. but she still doesn’t Get people. although she’s warm. and tries.) #and comics dream shows more autistic traits than show dream; which I’d argue comics dream is both asd and adhd

the urge to overthink whether a coworker was sneering or chuckling because i was reading a YA book called a King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo and had trouble explaining that it was a series by stuttering over my sentences is fucking haunting my very soul rn. .
