#that shit is fuckn wild
Text
I have a weird Thing about my writing that was caused by an ex-friend from a former fandom who made a huge deal about Never Reading Anything, not even one-shots, if they were less than 10k words and her biggest pet-peeve was repeating a word or action "too much" which was often like... Happens more than once in less than 500 words...
And since then her super brutal "blunt" critiques of my writing have lived rent-free in my brain bc like.... I'm obvs not super prosey, I'm a dialogue writer. So it was hard to reach her standards for fic and for some reason I desperately wanted her approval 😩

knowing spoilers doesnt ruin things for me thankfully it makes me more interested
that said Ive literally never know jack shit about the Saw movie franchise other than when in middle school all kids would talk about are the traps, with so much glee, I avoided these films until now...Im 29 LMAO
anyway, watching them, currently on the 4th one, and I have been laughing so hard at these schlock dramatic gore HALF THE MOVIE IS A DETECTIVE CASE, NO ONE EVER MENTIONED THAT LMAOO
theyre like Criminal Minds sprinkled with some Sam Rami style crack.
I enjoy horror but am very squeemish and still new to so much x')
Im also thinking of how crazy it would be if Jigsaw and Chuckie teamed up

I think it's also interesting to see how things change depending on the time in which they're being engaged with. so I see things about rose today that point out that she's written to be 19 when she meets the doctor and that's a big age difference (which... I understand the point is it's a big age difference because billie piper was 23 and eccleston was 40, and then dtennant was like 34/35 when he started which isn't so big of a shift but anyway the optics I get what people are getting at, but also I think it does oversimplify a lot of what's actually going on in the written dynamic, anyway-)
and also that the rtd run's Themes start coming together properly around s3 (although they are present from day one), and in some ways at this point, because nu!who has been running for... fuckn. actually quite a few years, which is wild to me as someone who started watching as a kid, and I wonder if classic!who fans felt the same way about their show and anyway -- she shifts from being Literally The First Companion You'd Seen For 17 Years (not counting the movie and fan things and the sketch) Who Was Defining A New Era For A New Generation to... a companion
comparable to other companions, comparable to the rest of the show
we sift through the writing to see what worked and what didn't (in our opinion), and we know how the ten-and-rose storyline Really ends, and how the ten storyline ends (sort, of because now that doctor and donna are Back), and we know what happens afterwards, and we talk about tenrose with a 2020s eye, and rose is "just" one of the people that travels with the doctor, one of several, and notably the one who gets most of the sunshiney doctor that buries a lot of the (wonderfully portrayed) angst of the latter half of the rtd show, and doesn't have as much lore as everything after that, so the story is "just" more simple overall
and to me she's kind of incapable of being just that. doctor who was still a risk that first season, it wasn't a done deal that it would have legs at all, never mind that it would continue for as long as it has. rose was created to be the Face of what nu!who was, moreso than nine/eccleston, because even with the extra angst and the eccleston gravitas, we know the doctor, the doctor is established, it's not actually the doctor that needs to sell what the new show is going to become and what the Feel of that new show is going to be (I mean, partly ofc, but-)
rose was doing so much heavy lifting and she succeeded! she was the face of who before dtennant or any other doctor or companion of his era and subsequent eras. she was created to appeal to a demographic of girls who wanted someone relatable in science fiction, because rtd wanted this to be for the girls, and billie piper came into it off the back of being a popstar and it changed her entire trajectory (for the better I think/hope -- there's a lot of bad shit in billie piper's past and I'm always sending her a fond thought)
nine/ten-and-rose were It! not calling it romantic or platonic or any secret third thing (haunting the narrative), but simply It! that's why it has so much staying power as a ship (which, my opinion on shipping has been somewhat *eh shrug* in later years, but in early-days when that was how you engaged with dynamics that got to you, of course it was going to be massive). it's so hard to properly describe how "for the time in which it was made" that this dynamic was written for, and how successful it was. it was rose that breathed doctor who -- and the doctor's character -- to life, as much as herself
she sets the stage for everything that comes next, both within and without the show proper
and I'm always so pleased that rtd at the time was thinking about what was needed to create this character and he opened with a shot from a girl on the estate with messy hair, clumpy eyeliner, and a minimum wage job, and went "that's the girl who's going to go on the adventure of a lifetime, that's the girl we're seeing the story through and relating to, because that's what girls (and uh... those who were girls at the time - and their parents and the boys) should be seeing."
I know rose isn't the first working class companion including classic!who, but she set the tone for nu!who and her family and background are important to why she is who she is, and is explored
"I've got no A-levels, no job, no future-" said the girl about to see the universe
she was very much for teenagers, and so she reads differently when you're an adult watching it back (much like those "teenager saves the world," novels you loved as a kid), but that's why she's 19 at the beginning. that's why she's billie piper (who does a perfect job). she was there to bring a new generation into this story, and it was perfect. and then she grows up. and we grew up. and she had adventures and it was brilliant and she survived and she made a life for herself. that's her story

car update
ok so i bought a subaru forester. now that i've bought one i see them everywhere. everyone is driving these cars.
i managed to find one that didn't have a power liftgate. which means it also, for some reason, doesn't have rear cross traffic alerts. but like. i never had those before so i don't super miss them. i just think it's wild that they bundled that with such an obnoxious feature.
It also has lane departure warnings and there's a super easy button you press to turn them off except it's not a physical toggle button so you press it and can't tell if it worked or not, and every time you turn the car off it re-sets to be on, so you don't realize the super distracting warning you hate is on until it goes off and super distracts you a lot and then in the midst of a tricky driving situation you're mashing the button to turn it off only you can't look so you're not sure if you missed it so you press it again and then it goes off later and you think you must've hit it twice so the next time you risk death to look at it and very carefully press it just once so it's definitely off this time, and then it goes off again later anyway, and anyway you give up on using the button and just grit your teeth because the thing is constantly beeping at you because it can't see the lane edges and freaks out. it is a useless feature, i have never once strayed from a lane and not known i was doing it, and if I were then a beep would not fix this. i want to find the wire that controls it and CUT IT but you of course cannot do that.
Anyway. As things go, not so bad really. I've been preoccupied with getting organizers and things and setting up the car interior to be nice, because I know from experience that one trip across the state where I'm having to half-unload and store things in there and shift everything out to make room for a thing and then load my life back into it, will mean that everything in the car is chaos and then I can't find the emergency equipment I know I have. I had a folding shovel in the Crosstrek, I bought it when the car was new, and was storing it in the rear driver's side footwell, and then when I needed it, well there was so much random bullshit in that car that I couldn't find it, and in fact I never found it, I sold the car without ever having found that folding shovel. So I bought a new one for this car, and I am sewing a seat-back organizer for the driver's seat, into which all of those things will go and then I will never remove them because I will not remove that seat back organizer because even if I have unexpected passengers or cargo surely a seat back organizer can be left in place.
This is my hope, anyway. We'll see. I'm finding myself without time to actually finish sewing the thing because shit keeps coming up. I thought it would take longer to get the car but no it just took up all of two days, and I have so much else to do around my house that I don't have time for anything else, so it's just as well I'd arranged to be off work this week too because I haven't had a moment to myself yet and probably won't at this rate but hopefully I can at least get my car set up.
I got the Most Boring Color; here's hoping I don't lose my nerve and do manage to find some artwork to have vinyl-wrapped onto the hood.
Suggestions welcome. Who could I commission, to do a fantasy-airbrush-style piece in wild colors? I want like a cool dragon or something, I really don't know beyond that. Probably the dealership will tell me not to because of the automatic lane-sensing cameras and things but like if they don't work maybe it will be time to cut the fucking wires so they stop beeping at me because they don't know where the lane markings are. IDK.
we'll see if that link fuckn worked or what
yeah for some reason the thing i'm most excited about is the moon roof, which is likely going to be the thing that breaks and makes this car terrible, but at the moment in the fading glory of autumn i just love it so much for some reason.
2 things remain: 1) I asked them if i could fit a full size spare in and they consulted and waffled and hemmed and hawed and finally said yes! you can! we'll just have to go over to the parts department and see about that! and then it was An Odyssey of multiple hours to get the car inspected (???) and registered and my insurance and whatever, and we didn't finish until nearly an hour after the dealership had closed, and I knew if I brought up the damn tire again somebody was going to cry, maybe me, so I didn't. but I have to call them... tomorrow now... and be like "so i was serious, also I want to discuss how to note this down in the maintenance logs so I get my rotations done five ways". and like, to be perfectly truly genuinely honest, it's not that I'm afraid I'll get stuck somewhere unable to drive, it is one hundred percent that I drive this car almost exclusively distances of 300 miles or more, and what WILL happen to me is that i get a flat as I get onto the highway or, better still, after I have gone maybe a hundred miles, and I can put the donut on but you cannot do highway driving for hundreds of miles on a donut, and so I will be stuck in fucking Utica or something and have to buy four new tires from literally wherever is open at the time and it will be a shitshow and it will be ten pm on a friday or something, and i absolutely will not do this.
So what will happen is, I will buy a spare fifth tire, I will at some point destroy one of my tires, and they'll say "ah you gotta buy four new ones" but i will say ha no i don't, and I will put the donut back in the trunk and store the spare rim somewhere until such time as I have yet another problem and then I will say, sadly, okay now I have to buy FIVE new tires, and will re-set. (This means that yes, then I will destroy a second tire on the Thruway near Nowhere at midnight on a Sunday, that's how it will go, but I will have put it off.)
2) I forget what 2 is. Oh yeah the fucking check from my fucking insurance. We floated the money to use as a down payment on this car, pulling it from some money we have earmarked but have not yet used for other things, and then the fucking check hasn't arrived yet, they claim to have mailed it on the sixth. So that's a headache. I just spent a thousand years combing through the website to see if there's a form where I can send a message to a person to ask them-- all the website says is "paid by check" but they don't mention mailing the check, so was there something else I was supposed to have done about it?
In the meantime, I got a loan from the dealership to finance part of the car purchase and while I am un-loan-to-able because my income is so wretchedly low, I was shocked to discover that somehow my credit score is insanely high, nearly perfect. Which is obviously meaningless because nobody will loan to me anyway. And it just highlights what a fucking stupid scam credit reports are. Because I have near-perfect credit, and am un-loan-to-able. Christ what a farce. (Dude co-signed, and the moment he appeared all communications were in his name, and the dealership texted me a request to leave them a review-- addressed to his name. On my phone! Which is the only contact info they have! Which is MY PHONE. It rankles! I'm going to leave them a good review but not until after I've calmed down about it. Come the fuck on.)

yk the first couple of episode drops were a bit ehh to me but like.. these two just hit Right. maybe bc i knew what to expect pacing/story wise now? either way, they're def my faves so far, especially ep 5. that's my Favorite favorite :]
spoilers for both eps under the cut, mostly just me blabberin abt what i liked (warning: its alotta alastor)
for ep 5, at first i thought charlastors/radiobelles were winning (and while i don't ship it myself, i was happy for em) but then the realization of 'wait wait wait this isn't romo at all, alastors tryna be a FATHER FIGURE?!' hit instead and i went WILD bc thats 1000% my preferred dynamic for charlie and al. so uh.. yippee dadlastors, sorry charlastors..? gsjahafdaj
also the "Ha! Fuck you." im normal im normal im NORMAL im SOOOO FUCKIN NORMAL (IM CRAZY IM VRAZY I CRAZY IM CRASTY IM FUCKI)
mimzy!! (mimzie??) her intro was abrupt, but she seems like a doll, and her hug with al was real cute. tho i do think she needed that metaphorical kick in the ass abt al's thoughts when it comes to her leeching off his strength for protection. about that..
ALASTOR ACTUALLY CARES. HE CARES. (seemingly, at least). LIKE, HE ACTUALLY LEGITIMATELY, NON-FANONILY, GIVES A DAMN ABT THE HOTEL. HE WENT OUT OF THE WAY TO PROTECT THE PLACE AND TOLD MIMZY TO LEAVE IF SHE DIDN'T COME FOR REDEMPTION. MAYBE ITS IN HIS OWN WEIRD-GUARDED-PETTY WAY BUT FUCK FUCK HOOOLLLYY FUCK ALASTOR CARES
and one more thing b4 i move onto ep 6, i've already seen some ppl comparing what al did to husk in the hall to angel and val's dynamic, and while i do agree the two are both trapped in unsavory deals (loser, baby literally confirms this) i don't think al's ANYWHERE near as bad as val. was what he did fucked up? oh, yes, definitely. but it really?? shouldn't be surprising??? al's in hell ‘n has all this status for a reason, so i was really just waitin for a moment like that to happen. however, it didn't do any lasting damage. at least i really wouldn't say so. most it did was scare the shit out of husk for a minute, nowhere close to what val does to angel on the daily (see: episode 6). tho im willing to admit i might be lookin thru rose colored glasses bc i love al as a character. my opinion might change when/if the actual conditions of al and husks deal are revealed, but as of rn, i think al acted as he did there bc husk attacked a reeeally sensitive subject. he would've just been the petty bitch he always is if husk said like.. anythin else. oh and uhh yeah im abt 85% sure he and lilith have SOMETHING goin on. idk who the hell else would be powerful enough to have alastor on a leash
..oh yeah, lastly, lucifer was cool :] silly silly guy (with lotsa trauma) that hit me right in the daddy issues. funny tho, i rlly dont have much to say abt the guy despite the ep literally being focused on him. his song with charile was spectacular though, i need to listen to it on its own immediately
okokok, episode 6, finally, hopefully shorter than the mess of text above
first off. vaggie = fallen angel theorists, i would like to bow down and apologize for ever doubting you. i was one of the skeptics, i really was, but the show did it in a way that (albeit rushed, but what hasn't been so far?, thaaanks, 8-episode limit..) made it seem believable, with assdam calling her out for it..
but putting adam aside, uh, lute?? maam?? holy fuck, step on me??? please???? i mean uh. sick character design yk ahah ^^
whats her name.. emily? the younger seraphim girl, i liked her, she was a cutie. she really did just seem like heavens version of charlie. and the older seraphim woman i (expectedly) have mixed feelings abt. i feel like all would've be great it adam got outta her damn ear cause she might've actually be down to try the hotel with em gone.. angel was doing so well
speaking of angel, ANGEL!! oh lookit that character development, charlie's gonna be so fuckn proud!!! also, CHERRI!!!! saw someone else say cherris the devil on angels shoulder while husks the (heh) angel, and i have to say i agree. they both want the best for him, they just have different ways of goin about it.
unsurprisingly, fuck Valentino. although i did notice he was wearing a dress today, so. (through gritted teeth) slay.
thiiink that's all i gotta say for today?? besides the fact that next week is gonna be agonizing, ofc :] buckle up ppl we might get a genuine, emotional chaggie fight come next thursday
..oh yeah!! molly!!! we briefly saw molly!!!! i hope youre absolutely thriving girl, you deserve no less <3

No Thoughts Just Vibes
I have nothing else for this except–– Nishinoya at Johzenji. Just that. They're all so damn weird and he'd fit right in with them. He's also the same age as them and him being the defence they so desperately need to keep the game not only going, but also to let them run wild knowing he'd save as many points as he can for them. I also feel like he'd get a tongue piercing to match Terushima and the vibes are just *****<kiss Their offence still wouldn't like match Shiratorizawa, but they'd be menaces on the court I can't. (I also want Tanaka there bc he would single-handly try and force the team into shape for Misaki and it wouldn't woooork but he would try and i love him for that. I just kinda think they might be too compatible as a team. Like gas meeting fire and burning everything lmao. so much chaos I can't w them. I can see Tanaka getting a spike through and absolutely looking at his team like 'eat my shit and try and beat that' and they would try. bc they have no concept of chill or retreat or fuckn temperance.)
but bc we weren't blessed w/ that in canon. What about them being on the same community team? Nishinoya is libero when he's visiting and its all so v chaotic that Kiyoko kinda looks at them and really, really wants to dip. Like fully daydreaming about walking to her car and leaving her husband there to make his own way home bc this is them sober??? what if they want to drink after? she caaan't.

I’m still wilding over the Owl House finale
I’m excited to see where they go with things in the specials and hhh I just can’t wait
Belos was such a huge ass in this episode, mans is just done with everyone’s shit and just wants BACK
and the fucking Collector introduction?? DUDE
That went way differently than I expected but I ADORED IT
I sincerely apologize to the people that said Collector!Luz wouldn’t happen, I give in you win XD
THE COLLECTOR WAS FUCKING ASTOUNDING THOUGH!!!
I’m so glad we have confirmation that they are an actual child aside from their actions. They have no moral compass and just want to play, no wonder they are so fucked up and antsy, who KNOWS how long they have been trapped since they were around when the Titan was alive!
I do hope the people demonizing them realizes that they are a literal child, and I fuckn love child villains! They are so complex and so fun to explore character wise!! Yes they don’t have a moral compass, but most children don’t! They don’t realize the consequences of their actions and just want to have fun because dammit NO ONE has wanted to play with them and they have been trapped for fuckin ever. 
Just can’t wait to see more of them!!
Also I cannot believe that Kiki has gotten to the point for me at least that I cannot forgive or understand her actions? She heard EVERYTHING from what we know, why did she treat Hunter that way?? Why has she not taken the many opportunities to right her wrongs?? Shes a complex character but she has lost her charm for me after that reveal. I wish she would have done something after learning things, realizing she was just going to be thrown out. The way she wanted to be the next Golden Guard EVEN AFTER knowing what happens to all of them?? Idk man
I do appreciate all the moments we got with all the side characters though! Darius protecting Eber just hhh he loves his feral dog man!! I’m so glad we got to see more on them even if it was small! I hope that someday we get to learn more about the little funny beast person. Their friendship is so intriguing and I wanna know how they met but sadly we might not get any of that :(
The interactions with Alador, I see a lot of people hate on him but I honestly think his story being rushed is what is making people see him in such a negative light. I def think he’s trying and he actually loves his kids, yes his actions previously won’t be forgotten but gdi hes t r y i  n g. I honestly dislike seeing everyone shitting on him. I have a dad that never tries and I’d give anything to have a second chance with him like their story is playing out.
Moving on, theres just so much man, the Raeda stuff was amazing, I love their connection and bond that Raine was fully ready to sacrifice themselves to protect Eda and that SCENE UGH. KILLS ME ;;
The ending had me shocked, King getting taken away had way too many parallels to the ending of season 1, GUS SOBBING BROKE ME, and I can’t even imagine how all the kids are feeling and Camila being thrust into all this like
its a trip for everyone and I just cannot wait for more

Have the boys ever indulged in Illicit Substances?
I feel like Wind would think he’s top shit for smoking weed but doesn’t know how to hit a bong💀
Wild also gives me mdma vibes from all the raves he goes to
Omfg anon I am too fuckn old and boring to know much about illicit substances if I'm honest.
Wild gives me mdma vibes too, and any of the boys who have gone to the club with him may have been tempted to try it.
Legend seems like the type to chill out with some edibles or with a vape pen now and then. In his wilder days, I bet he would have tried mushrooms.
Not that it's illicit, but Four buys his Adderall from Wind because he doesn't have health insurance to get his own prescription cheaply.
And the worst thing Wind has smoked is probably a menthol cigarette, not that you'd know it from the way he brags.

just read Bukowski’s “Love is a Dog from Hell” and it made me think of some of your writing. Just because you used to sound like him at times. I think of “Had the realest dream we robbed a bank then escaped to spend it all for one night at the peninsula…” every once in a while. Just that phrase, really. It’s so beautiful. I’m not saying you remind me of an alcoholic madman like Bukowski, you sound a lot less old and drunk than him. But you have a kind of solitude and hunger that is similar to his. I hope you’re still writing and maybe publish something one day. I’d love to read it, ask for a signed copy.
you makin too much noise talkn like that , they haven’t even served up lunch yet girl . aye don’t you know i forgot the face mask in the taxi . got me smilin in public outta nowhere , hope the homie ain’t watchn , gonna think somethins up feel me . warm fuckn words fr , almost feels as if i gotta brain freeze , as if i sat at the desk behind you in school (history , gotta piece of gum type things) . i’ve said hella shit on this app so i’m lost with the reference . inna way i think i like that , like its kinda wild you know sum bout me i couldn’t remember , iono . liquor was never my drug of choice but i’m heavily fuckn wit the thought you found even the tiniest similarities between me and this “madman” . sick at the second half of this honestly , if i had a real moment i’d read it all slower . fora few seconds maybe the fourth or fifth read i wondered if i should scroll through the archives like ol’times . ya’know jus to find what’s got you talkn like this (i’ll tell myself the save data doesn’t exist) . bookwork ain’t meant for my reality , hell scroll down , you know imma outside boy . not sure how many lives i’ve wasted but i hope in another life i can make the pen work that could live up to how you might see me . iono bedtime stories to put that ass to bed sound kinda hard (ivy gotta black book) . yo if you were goin for a nerve you killed it 💔 (side note side note: look the old man up tonight)
