#some of my ex-friends are so polarized they have no interest in what i'm trying to say they just want china to disappear off the planet ::))

[contrabandhothead]

Hello! I wonder if I can get a BoB ship? I'm 6'2 tall, with long, thick blonde hair and big blue eyes and strong arms. I'm a quiet person with a serious expression on my face, but also I'm a very stubborn, protective and friendly but I get pretty quickly angry and sometimes I'm too much teasing person. I like astronomy, history and discuss some interesting topics. I like to enjoying nights with good alcohol and friends. I never stop fighting and believing. I'm a loyal and strategical person.

- LEWIS NIXON -

- [ general ]

you made this one make TOO MUCH sense (and no, it’s not just because of your pfp)

Lewis and you appear to be quite the polar opposite couple when people first meet you, and that is such an incorrect assumption

you two said power couple and bitch i’m HERE FOR IT

Lewis has a knack for going after the quiet ones, so that’s why he took such an interest in you

he likes to see that smile reserved just for him break out over your normally stoic face, it boosts his ego like crazyyyy

Lew is just as stubborn, but he’s more likely to crack first after an argument

he claims he only apologizes because “the bed got cold”, but we all know it’s because he’s a wreck without you

he LOVES how protective you are, it makes him feel special and he probably goes out of his way to make you jealous sometimes-

it’s so easy for you guys to just let the hours pass by, especially when you’re talking

Lew could talk to you for hours on end and never get bored, there’s always a new topic

i don’t think you can be too teasing for Lew (maybe if you touch on his daddy issues) so i don’t think he’d really mind your teasing

in fact, he does it back, to the point where you both get into teasing wars

it’s quite entertaining, especially to Richard when he hangs out with you both

Lew is also a massive history geek, so he will talk with you for hours on end about anything from the Roman Empire to WWI

he thinks astronomy is interesting, but he doesn’t know nearly as much about it, so he likes it when you teach him

as we all know, Nix is always down for a good drink, but he’s no longer an alcoholic thanks to you and Winters

he only occasionally drinks with you, but most of the time he just lets you get drunk and then drives you home

Nix’s alcoholism was quite the issue in your relationship, especially since Nix didn’t want to give it up

you actually broke up for a short time period until he got it together, which thank god he did

- [ how you two got together ]

you were an officer, and a model one to be exact

you led another company, which constantly worked with Easy, so it was fair to say that you and Winters were quite close

you were also close with Lewis Nixon, although it definitely took him a while to get on your good side

it just seemed as though he was everything that could slightly irritate you, and he knew it

he spent most of his time trying to piss you off, especially when he drank heavily in your office

he would also constantly put his dirty shoes on your desk, which you learned to ignore

he pissed you off, but somehow you felt yourself becoming closer to him than ever before

there was something alluring about him, perhaps in the way that he spoke or the way that he smiled

you couldn’t quite put your finger on it, but you had begun to develop a small crush on the man

however, there were two factors that stood in the way of you asking him out

1. he was a fellow officer and 2. he was an alcoholic

you loved and cared for him, you really did, but you just couldn’t be with an alcoholic

you already know that his ex wife left him because of it, and you couldn’t bring yourself to go through what she had

so you left it alone

you slowly began to distance yourself from him, and Nix hated it

he tried to corner you everywhere, but you managed to narrowly escape his grasp every time

he was getting desperate

you looked up as your office door suddenly swung open, smacking into the wall

it revealed a disheveled looking Lewis with messy hair, a loose tie, and a crazed look in his eye

“Lewis? what’s wrong?”

you could tell he was drunk from the way he slurred his next sentence

“please stop avoiding me, i can’t take it anymore. what did i do wrong, i promise i’ll fix it! did i tell you i loved you when i was drunk last week? what did i do?”

you sighed, getting up from your desk and placing your hand on Lewis’s shoulder

“Lew, ask me out next time when you’re sober”

uhhhh i didn’t mean it to make it that angsty but fuck it we are here now- anyways, i hope you enjoyed this (i had wayyyy too much fun writing it). have a great week!!!! 💖

[faveanimeships]

hi!! i saw your thing about sending you ship requests, so here's mine! i'm 5' 4", korean, and i have shoulder-length dark hair. i wear circle glasses, and i have a terrible prescription. i love to read, listen to classical music, and i'm a foodie! i eat when i'm sad. i'm blunt and direct, along with rather reserved, and i have a hard time letting people get close to me. but, once i do, i love and care for them to no end!!!! i like to dress comfortably (ex. leggings and sweatshirt).

i’m so sorry i just read your rules for your ships and i sent in the description about the korean girl w circle glasses please forgive me … this is for haikyuu, i am infp-t, ravenclaw, and i am bisexual (i use she/her pronouns). i’m so sorry for not reading the rules before!!

Henlo okay so im sorry this was super late I have no excuse to give bcs I procrastinate so much anyways youre super cute yeet plz don’t apologise hahahahha I totes relate sad eat, angry eat, happy eat, depressed eat and stress eat yeet omG CLASSICAL MUSIC WATAFAK I IIIIIII REALLY REALLY REALLY LIKE CHOPIN MY FAVE IS HIS NOCTURNE OP.9 NO.2 OR FANTAISIE IMPROMPTU (I know like theyre so different idk im super bipolar aahahah) WHOS YOUR FAVE !!!! l also like Mozart and some Vivaldi hahahaha dw I also wear prescription and its getting worse everyday yeet I should stop looking at screens

Ps we are super similar like im an INFJ

Anyways lets get to your ships

I SHIP YOU WITH Tooru Oikawa !!

You are reserved, shy, blunt, comfortable, open minded and prefer to trust your gut feeling; you’re also thirsty for knowledge and love to learn. Your ability to have an open mind will only lead you to pursue new interests and new genres. When you’re looking for a partner you would probably look for someone accepting or equally open-minded, and probably someone empathetic. I’m not sure bur your reserved personality may bring you lots of outgoing friends, and maybe when you’re looking for a partner, you’d be the listener in the relationship. You’d be great at giving empathetic advices, especially emotional ones since you know, you’d get a feeling of what and what not to say, which IMO is amazing. Looking at your description, you’d be the calm person in the relationship due to your reserved and caring nature, and so you’d probably prefer a louder partner?

Oikawa is flirty, childish, smug, intelligent, slightly ambitious and cunning. But at the same time, he doesn’t have much self-confidence and is quick to defend himself if he thinks he will get hurt. He’s also a very careless person, as Iwa-chan mentioned, he’d push himself to practice because of he felt as if he was inferior to tobio or ushiwaka. THEREFORE I ship you with him, both of you can form a very strong bond. Oikawa hates relying on people but if you successfully assure him that he can always come to you when he’s feeling under the weather, he would try to rely on you and thus, a supportive relationship is born!!!! I feel like due to your calm and empathetic nature, you can soothe poor Tooru, give him great advice when he’s pushing himself too hard/ feeling inferior. You’d be his ‘rock’ and stabilise him. You’d pull him out if he’s stressed out or overthinking, or even stop him from making childish or rash decisions that he will come to regret later. Of course, Oikawa is still stubborn to a degree, hence you will improve your reasoning skills, and he will eventually come to understand that it’s because you love and care for him and that’s why you’re stopping him from making regretful decisions. (To add on to this: you’re blunt but and you won’t sugar coat words, but Tooru needs to listen to the truth behind his actions, so your blunt and direct way of speaking would be very beneficial to him) You’re caring so you’d try to understand him and then help him out. You’d be am amazing listener.

ALSO Oikawa loves to talk about his day, and you’d probably love to listen to him talk, he loves cuddling and stroking your hair, he’s a big fan of PDA and he would always try to make time for you but volleyball, sadly is his priority. It would be great if you supported him wholeheartedly and encouraged him. Obviously, Oikawa loves to spoil and care for you!! He’s very observant and he knows how to utilise everyone’s skillset and talents, and obviously, he would keep a close eye on you and would probably suggest that you try new things/ comment on how he thinks you’re particularly good at something.  He would also recommend that you try new things if he thinks you are suitable for it, for example, he may think you have great flexibility and will suggest you take up a sport that will improve your flexibility and also potentially become something you enjoy. He’s also great at encouraging you and will definitely eat with you when you’re sad, he would probably bring you to his favourite ramen place and say that he’s buying you food instead, hoping to see you smile uwu

Anyways Oikawa is also really smart (class 6!!!!!), both of you can study together and become the unbeatable smart couple (yeet), revision sessions include weird puns yall make up from the revision material, helping each other out with tricky questions or solving tricky questions together. Tooru is a fun partner and he would be amazing to be around. When you’re stressed out he’d suggest yall take a break and give you an amazing massage.

Things he likes:

1.     Cuddling

2.     You TALKING!!!

3.     PDA PDA

4.     Cute pecks

5.     You coming to his games and cheering him on

6.     Mutual trust

7.     Meeting each other despite your hectic schedules (even for 5 minutes)

8.     Meeting at least once a week

9.     Spending time with you

10.  Eating milk bread with you

(A/N: IDK WHY BUT I FEEL LIKE you and iwachan are probs siblings with very similar personalities yeet ???)

I also ship you with (under the cut)!!!

Issei Matsukawa

Matssun looks intimidating but he’s really just an idiot + funny person!! He would be a big tease, will initiate PDA but will get really bashful when you try to do it. Matssun is funny and will always pull pranks on you with Makki, and you could turn into a prankster yourself (heh) Although Matssun isn’t big fan of reading or classical music and it shows, maybe it’s good to date your polar opposite (he’d be a Gryffindor) he’s not loud but he can be if he wants. Occasionally you may find him being loud around you (he likes attention from his S/O) but you will grow to love that side of him! Matssun usually shows that he cares by joking around (he just wants you to smile) but he’s quite the observant one so he wouldn’t go too far with his jokes. He’s very clear about boundaries. Matssun is generally a very good natured and fun person to be around, he’s great at supporting people, he knows how to pull your confidence levels up, and will give amazing advice. He’s also amazing at encouragement (although he shows it in his own unique way). Plus, he’s also very good at dealing with blunt comments so he won’t be offended easily, would probably know how to talk back when you offer him a blunt statement. He’s also very keen on eating, he loves to eat, so he’s always down for some good food! At some point, he will probably attempt to cook for you, but yea I’ll leave that up to your imagination.

ALSO Matssun also appreciates the fact that you love to dress comfortably, so he wouldn’t need to worry about you not dressing warm and catching a cold during winter, he can be a worrywart at times, so he loves it when you dress comfortably ++ he loves your style!!!!! ALSO you’re quiet and reserved, Matssun is chill and laid back, so I would say it’s a pretty calm and laid back relationship!

Matssun would absolutely love it if you would attend his volleyball matches and support him, Oikawa has too many fangirls, he would love it if you waved at him = he would be super energised hahahaha

Yukie Shirofuku

Yukie is an amazing person tbh she’s super underrated, this queen can eat 4 onigiris at the same time yeet anyways, Yukie is a polite, mature and laid back person, she’s also great at studying and probably likes books?? Both of you can geek out together and discuss about different books ++ she also likes napping but like imagine this you reading while she naps next to you TUT so cute besides She would probably be interested in classical music if you introduced it to her, if you told her about your favourite pieces, she would add it to her usual playlist if it fits her mood  uwu also she would also be down for concerts, and would defs love it if you asked her to go with you!!! ALSO YUKIE IS A BIG PHAT FOODIE. You would go on dates to different restaurants/ cafes to eat, pig out together and watch a movie, café hopping dates, its just too cute!!! She would also make cute lunch boxes for you when you’re sad because she loves you and wants you to be happy!!

Yukie is also a very supportive person (I mean she has to deal with bokuto’s emo mood)  and would provide amazing encouragement!! I think she’d be okay with your bluntness, she’s not a sensitive person and knows how to react when you’re blunt with her!!!

Yachi Hitoka

-       Awkward mess

-       Teeny bit sensitive, but appreciates your bluntness bcs sometimes blunt is what she needs (like hinata haha)

-       Super fun to be around, would draw you

-       Artsy movie dates

-       Café dates !!!

-       Great listener, doesn’t really know what to say but will always give you a hug

-       Supportive baby, loves to hold your hand when you’re alone

Thank you for your patience !! hope you like it !!!

[thecaffeinebookwarrior]

Hi! I've followed you for a while and you always seem to have really helpful tips and answers to questions about writing characters, so I was wondering if you could help me. I'm writing a character who's a pathological liar, and I was wondering if you had any advice for writing him.

Good question!  Compulsive liars tend to be born from: 

A) childhood abuse or very strict parents that forced them to lie in order to avoid punishment, leading to a cycle of dishonesty that’s difficult to break, and/or: 

B) a personality disorder such as narcissistic personality disorder or antisocial personality disorder.  

Either way, compulsive liars are telling lies to preserve themselves, to get attention, and/or to convey a certain version of themselves to the world.

More “sinister” and organized pathological liars will study the person they wish to deceive, look for weaknesses subconsciously or otherwise that they can exploit on.  

Some lack empathy, and some have an excess amount of it (which often enables them to lie better.)  More empathetic liars will often feel guilty for lying and relieved once you stop asking questions on the subject, whereas less empathetic liars (often on the sociopathy spectrum) can comfortably lie for long periods of time.  These less empathetic liars will often feel little-to-no discomfort or shame after having been caught in a lie, and will often try to use another lie to cover it.

There’s an article containing the confessions of pathological liars and real-life accounts of people’s attempts to confront the pathological liars in their lives here.

Here’s one account of a man’s marriage with a manipulative, sociopathic pathological liar:

I married a sociopath. Of course, I didn’t realize that there were those types of human beings in existence. Near the end of our 2 yr. marriage is when I started realizing she had been lying to me & her coworkers (destroying my character) so that she could attempt to have me arrested on false DV charges. Imagine the realization of this from your spouse. I guess she was through with me, so this was her way of disposing of me. I found out later after meeting her ex that she had succeeded in having him arrested on false DV charges (they didn’t stick, because, well, they were false!) He is a really nice man.

I found out some incredulous lies, some just downright crazy, and some directed solely to destroy my character. When I confronted her with several of these lies she would lie again to cover, or simply state "you weren’t there", etc. The problem is that I spoke with people who were there in the certain instances. My take on it is that one could confront a person such as my ex (who is a validated sociopath ~ by way of psychological testing) until one’s death and not accomplish anything positive. I’ll agree with the one thing that another person stated: When confronted with the truth, there is a long silence.

I have to deal with this person with outrageously horrible behavior because I had children by her. The interesting thing is that she didn’t really "target to destroy" me until she was underway with the second pregnancy. Once I got my feet under me, and started investigating I uncovered lie after lie concerning her parents, my parents, me, my friends, you name it. Nothing was sacred from being destroyed by her lying. I uncovered an affair she had also.

From this experience I may be an incurable cynic on the topic of rehabilitation from chronic lying.

Truth and trust are missing from a liar’s dictionary, and it can’t be penciled in later. My ex uses lies to manipulate people into believing a certain thing or making people act (usually it’s for punitive control, getting what she wants regardless of others, etc.).

Here’s one from the child of pathological liars:

I am pretty sure both of my parents are compulsive liars. My father has been audited several times by the IRS, denied stealing money from me when I was a working teen, and encouraged us kids to lie about his affair -we met his mistress when we were preteens. I think my mom enables his behavior or is a compulsive liar, too. The most significant evidence of their behavior is this: neither my mom not dad will admit that they believe I was raped. After our alcoholic bi-polar brother died in 2004, my older sister spilled the beans that I was raped at camp in 1980 when I was 16. My sister said our brother started drinking because I was raped at camp. No evidence exists to support any rape. My parents use this mythical rape to explain why I spent almost 3 months in a mental health care facility. I am 45 years old now. I found about this horrible lie in 2004—now I understand why my entire family treated me in such a bizarre way. Compulsive lying must be just a small part of mental illness. I am bi-polar and am having success with medical and counseling, but two years ago this chemical imbalance almost cost me my husband and 2 children. I am still praying for wisdom on how to treat my parents who are 75 and 78 and very ill. I know Jesus will give me wisdom and strength to continue loving and respecting my parents and help me not to be a victim of them. Their big lie about me has definitely tainted many relationships in my life.

And one that shows how a pathological liar can be born out of the unrealistic expectations of parents:

I can also understand why a compulsive liar lies. Mainly because I have recently discovered I am one. I truly don’t know why I lie, but I have read the symptoms and I concur that I lie to protect myself. I grew up in a middle class family. I was basically the star student in my earlier grades (1st through 3rd) and mt parents never really let me forget it. I actually began to slack in school a bit, and thats my fault. But as soon as I received my first B my parents grounded me for a long time. (I do remember this.) And from there on they continued to make sure my homework was always done and would never let me leave the house until it was done.

I think that’s when it all started...I began to lie to my parents and tell them my homework was done so I could go play with friends sooner. I’m not sure how but, I as time went on I lied more and more. I, actually to the point where I can lie to myself and believe in false things. I tell my parents that they tell me things, or that they don’t tell me things to get out of a sticky situation so I’m not punished. I do it to everyone now because I’m always afraid of the punishment. I am currently in a great relationship that is slowly slipping away. I truly mean no harm to anyone but my girlfriend is amazing...I don’t know how she puts up with me. I lie about the littlest things. Their family is on vacation and I forgot to mow their lawn...and I was talking to her, I told her that I mowed it...when I didn’t yet, but she didn’t even come home for another week so there was not point in lying.

I am currently seeing help and I advise all those that know a compulsive liar to help them. Because its hard and self-confusing. It’s instinct to lie for us, and it feels weird when I tell the truth...

It’s important to know that not all pathological liars are malicious or bad people.  Some of them are using it as a survival strategy, not a means of abuse.   That said, there are pathological liars who genuinely are abusive and harmful to the people around them, who should be avoided as much as possible (but can be very interesting to write.)

I hope this helps, and happy writing!

CONGRATS MY DUDIO I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!! Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to ask for Wolfstar and a song prompt of Every Time We're Together by, you guessed it, Nickelback 😈😈 just kidding, love you really uncle charlie 💖💖💖💖💖 congrats again! 😃

LATE AF AND TERRIBLE AF BUT HERE I AM

It’s drizzling outside London Blackfriars when Sirius’strain finally pulls up and terminates, the bowels of the train spilling peopleout the doors; he’s impatient and shoves out first, but Percy is never the typeto be unnecessarily rude or impatient, and so he takes a particularly elegantand angelic step out of the train only once the crowds have dissipated.

“Take your fucking time, Weasley,” Sirius sighs. “God,you’re worse than Peter. We’d losehim on the train because he’d be so slow to get off.” He kicks off from thepole he’s been leaning against, his manner the polar opposite of Percy: Siriushas his hands shoved in the pockets of his leather jackets and still walks witha hooligan swagger, whilst Percy walks poker straight and with measured strides,his umbrella clicking like a pair of heels on the ground beside him.

He extends it out when they leave and holds it mostly overSirius. “Was it always this rainy when you were younger?” he mumbles, raindropswetting the nape of his neck and flattening the curl of his hair.

“I distinctly remember it being a lot sunnier,” Siriussnorts. “It’s probably you. It’s always fucking raining whenever I go anywherewith you.”

“It’s not my fault,” Percy says with a pout that’ssurprisingly childish. “My other siblings inherited the sun. I’m just burnt out– don’t put your Oyster card away yet, sweetheart, we’re getting the Tube.”Sirius presents his middle finger to Percy, who snorts, but he feels hisstomach roil gently: he’s never once remembered his Oyster card once gettingoff at Blackfriars, and it was always Remus that elbowed him.

Remus isn’t here. It hurts his heart just to think about it – one, that Remus wasn’twith him anymore even leading up to the Battle, and two, that Remus isn’t hereanymore, when he should be. Being the only Marauder left is a lonely job.“Circle Line, right?”

“District works, too.” (Percy is a wizard of the Tube; whileSirius only ever knows about the lines he’s had to use and tries to generallyavoid the underground labyrinth, Percy could likely make his way across Londonby Tube with his eyes shut.)

It’s a slow walk there, because Sirius can’t really bear togo any faster; his arm is wound through Percy’s as he watches the world go by,remembering the way it felt to be surrounded by his friends, hearing theirboisterous laughter like ghosts in his ears – and he forgets, mistakes Percy’sarm for Remus’s for a moment as the seventies swallow him up again: hismotorbike roars along the train tracks in his memory (not that they ever didthat, of course, but Sirius could certainly bloody dream – after all, of course, he’d been everywhere else).

They catch a District train and walk to Southbank; it usedto be the Marauders’ daytime summer holiday haunt, after all. They would tearup all sorts of suburbs and councils later in the day, but Southbank was alwaysa good place to just sit, lounge, and catch some weird Muggle art exhibition;Percy eyes it with that kind of intellectual renown, whereas all Sirius can seeis Remus sprawled out on the stairs, James with his feet up on the café table,and Peter looking distinctly uncomfortable with everybody else’s level ofpublic slobbery.

“This is a terribly arthouse place of you to go,” Percynotes, the click of his miraculously dry umbrella on the floor lost in thehumdrum of chatter from people inside to escape the rain. “I thought you werejust regular hooligans.”

“Remus took me here once, to go see whatever talk orexhibition he was interested in,” Sirius says, leading Percy with practisedease through the halls. “And then we all came. I dunno. It’s just so bloody weird that it worked great for a placeto haunt during the day; all that shit we used to get up to? Those were our dusk adventures.”

“From dusk till dawn,” Percy muses, trying to shake thefeeling of the disturbance in Siriusnext to him; it feels strangely like something about him is swirling, thefrenetic energy that age has softened in him rising back up. He shifts hisweight off of his umbrella. “Do you want some time to yourself?”

Sirius nods.

Percy finds the nearest exit, which takes him an embarrassinglylong time and a detour to buy a postcard to send to Charlie. He comes out intosome sort of ex-farmer’s market which appears to have turned into a mass offood stalls and buys himself something that he most definitely can’t pronounceand that smells terrifically pungent, buying an extra for Sirius.

It’s cold when Sirius arrives, hands shoved into hispockets. Percy raises his eyebrows. “Are you alright?” he asks.

Sirius deflects. “What the fuck is this?”

“Some sort of foreign foodstuff that tastes like it’s goingto assault my rectal passages tomorrow,” Percy grumbles; Sirius snorts,immediately tucking in as they wander along and back to the station. “Please,leave the bathroom be tomorrow. I might need it. No three-hour-long baths foryou.”

“Fuck off. They’re only two hours long.”

“The real-life clock that exists in the living room and notin your head says three.”

Getting on the Tube is a surprisingly easy affair once theynavigate the sprawl of busy station, and they both stand by the doors as itroars through the tunnels. Percy is the taller of the two, so gangly that hesometimes looks like he was stretched as a form of torture when he was young,and he rests his head on top of Sirius’s, knowing full well that it irritateshis partner.

“Hey, Perce,” Sirius says with a note in his voice thatPercy definitely doesn’t like. “Doyou think Harry still has my motorbike?”

Percy pauses for the briefest of moments. “I should thinkso. I hear he uses it to attempt to impress my sister.”

“You mind if we drop by and see if we can take a ride?”

“We, Sirius?”

“What? Me and Remus used to ride it together all the time!”

Percy sighs.

-

“Now, not to be neurotic,Sirius, but this looks mildly dangerous.”

“There is nothingdangerous about flying a motorbike however many metres above the ground,”Sirius said cheerily, swinging his leg over and settling himself into thepassenger seat. “Come on. It’ll be fun!”

“My idea of fun doesn’t usually involve broken legs,” Remusgrumbled. Sirius rolled his eyes.

“Get on,” he said.

Reluctantly, Remus clambered on, much smaller than Sirius,and put his arms around Sirius’s waist, ignoring the flush of heat it createdin his chest (nerves, he thought, just nerves). “If I die, it is absolutelyyour fault,” he mumbled, resting his head against Sirius’s back and willinghimself not to look out as Sirius revved the engine.

“Dying is the fun part,” Sirius said cheerily, and sent themotorbike careening off into the sky, much to Remus’s vocal displeasure; butwhen they landed, and once he had finished screaming, he had just looked atSirius and grinned.

“Let’s do that again,” he’d said.

-

Percy is looking at the motorbike with equal amounts ofdispleasure. “This,” he says, “does not comply with Ministry safetyregulations.”

“The last person to say something like that thoroughlyenjoyed the ride,” Sirius says, patting the space behind him. “Now get the fuckon.”

Ha ha ^^ thanks for the reply! To be honest I didn't even think one time about CaitxCisco being a match XD But it's really okay! Exchanging idea Yes! fighting No! it really doesn't interest me. :) You know I analyse everything, all the time, I'm made this way, I can't help it lol So, for me, fun is not enough and it's certainly not an excuse for nonsense, so yeah I didn't digest well that season (I dropped Legends of tomorrow for ex ^^) xD It's why I loved 12 monkeys! ^^

First of all, I didn’t get much sleep last night (if any, it was less than 3 hours) and so if I was a little blunt in that last post, please forgive me. Sleep-deprivation-induced crankiness is kinda seeping into my brain and permeating my words. So JUST IN CASE anything came across a bit harsh or abrasive, please ignore that. Glad we can disagree and still be friends! 

Also with Cisco and Cait... I didn’t always ship them either. Like when I first saw them I was ready to ship them if the writers went there. I was waiting to ship them because they’re BFFS and nerds and cuties and whatnot. But they never went there and Cait had just lost her husband. So I put that ship in a Platonic Box in the corner of the closet, until Christmas. Every now and then they would have a  nice moment, but it was always sidelined. Especially because they gave Caitlin so many rushed romantic interests and the timing was never right. I’m sure you don’t want to hear about all the things I love about them... so unless you want to know, I’ll just leave it at season 3 made me open the Platonic Box and re-evaluate things.  It was season 3 where the timing seems like it’s starting to align. I think you know this about me too... I love to analyze things too. Some of my favorite posts to write are character metas or theories. I really only do that with a few of my favorite shows... the ones I’m really obsessed with. Agents of SHIELD is the big one because it leaves so many questions about everything. But I watch SO many shows. And some of them I watch because they let me laugh. I still watch Legends. I KNOW it’s stupidly written. I cringe when they try to put characters together and I almost stopped watching after Rip kissed a human version of Gideon that his mind created... Like I legit felt embarrassed for the actors. As I usually do. But that being said, I laugh at it. I can enjoy it whilst critiquing it. I mean heck, I used to like Doctor Who so much because it was fun and goofy while having serious problems to consider and emotional weight while having a sense of continuity. The Flash has it’s clever sci-fi moments, but at times it over extends itself with what it can accomplish. It spreads itself thin. Like... Flash usually addresses the emotional drama, which I would usually be thankful for (considering how it helps with emotional depth and character attachment)... but it’s either laid on too thick or they fail to address an issue properly and you can really feel it missing. But see the thing is, if they REALLY delved into EVERYthing? the show would be a LOT darker... and I’m glad it’s not typically a grim!dark show. however it kinda needs to learn not to bite off more than it can chew. The plot is twisty and fun, but parts of it are confusing because we don’t have any solid rules. Cisco can always just reverse the polarity or HR can use a freaking transmogrifier at the last second without even explaining how that would change the timeline... or like Savitar losing his memory? makes no sense. But in their world, to them, it makes sense. So I go with it.
