#that’s me singing the theme for u

[ofmermaidstories]

I am here to ignore ✨Star Wars✨ and instead bug you with my thoughts of mandalorian Bakugo and a jedi reader who are forced to work together and everyone is kinda amused at how the two of you at first argue and bicker like the ancient enemies your kind have been for years.

But this fierce grumpy mandalorian with the black green and orange beskar armor sees how patient you are healing all his wounds. And you see how soft he is with the foundlings and how he always takes the time to show them different defense moves. And soon enough he becomes the first one to shield you with his actual armored body when you are caught off guard. And he’s the only one who calls you “shitty jedi,” is the only one allowed to call you that, because it’s the same thing he yells at when you’re wounded as he rushes to be the first by your side.

Your lightsaber, his ancient armor, a clash of two worlds you know has caught you in the middle as the force playfully tickles the back of your neck as if to say I know what’s going in. Because you know in the deepest caverns of your heart that you long for more than anything to see what color his eyes are.

(I’m sorry please swat at me with a newspaper)

we should tell him he’s probably only wearing that helmet because he’s UGLY!!!! (and we’re right, because he IS!!!). also i vote that we bonk him in the head (helmet) with the butt of our lightsaber to get his attention. BONK!

are we gonna turn evil tho? 🥺 aren’t jedis not allowed to be in love or something bc they turn evil? 🥺 i don’t want to turn evil……………….. mmmm, well, maybe, but ur gonna have to sell the idea to me. 🤨

(if u are a mandalorian/starwars fan who also likes cowboys, then have you have the chance to read Keddie’s cowboy!din writings? they’re very good 😌 highly recommend)

#ofmermaidstories-asks #oh how she rocks: kedsandtubesocks 🧦👟🌷 #NO swats—only love and fics 😌 #also i think we should just co-opt the love theme from the prequels—Across the Stars 🥹 #OUR theme now 🥹 #dooooo doddododoodododooooo dooooooooo dooooo dododododododo dooooooooo doooooo #that’s me singing the theme for u #ALSO!!! i think we should kick him in the shins sometime #and have a pale pink lightsaber

the moment zhou shen sang the first line i started tearing up oh my god

#PLSSSS LISTEN TO THIS IM SO AKJDJFJJFJSJA #zhou shen #tan weiwei #IM NOT EVEN EXAGGERATING I LITERALLY STARTED CRYING THE MOMENT HE SANG THE FIRST LINE #the 少数民族 style choice was brilliant… i think it unearthed something in me #like??? it was so raw and human and with the lyrics i could literally imagine every detail #i could FEEL every detail #so insane………… #how are they so good at singing #how are human vocal cords capable of producing such sounds #and ofc themes about parental love in media are always the biggest tearjerker for me #BUT ALSO it felt like a whole worldview #like all creation around you is singing u just have to listen #like all creation around you singing with you #so crazy……. #easily my fave song from this show so far hhhhhh #thank you camera person for showing the ppl crying in the audience halfway theough bc that was literally me

whats ur favorite aspect about csm

hi nonnie! my favourite aspect of csm is reze :].

ok but seriously: the thing i've always admired in csm is the way the story is told, or more exactly how the characters are utilised.

it's like. the best i can describe is that many of the characters - the ones i call Actives in my head- are used as Elements to the plot - as Events which morph the more passive characters' journeys. yeah, csm is definitely character driven but not in an incoherent manner, more in a constructive manner? idk. i think there's something really sexy about characters that Are just metaphors.

and like. everything, even the smallest active-passive microcosms and interactions finally fall back into denji, who i'd regard as the most passive of them all. it's interesting because denji subverts the shounen mc archetype, he isn't really an actor in his own story, at least in part one. he's more a receiver of the ideas and the parallels that the people he encounters imbue him with.

death in csm is also something of note here. i quite like it when characters get fucked to serve a Larger Plot or another character if it's done in an intriguing manner, if it's something that adds to the narrative. but csm is unique in how it uses characters to propel not a strictly traditional plot, but other characters in their progression. the plot is the character. the subplots are the side characters. it's delicious, concise and tied together so, so well.

it's the trifecta of horror, comedy and the erotic, it's the symbolism packed rereadability of it. also makima could ruin my life and it'd be awful of her. i mean what.

#i think the thing to understand is that csm themes are like shapes in my head i cant really describe them but they bounce off each other so #well. #imagine like cards in a castle falling into each other thats how i imagine the csm plot #csm #chainsaw man #csm meta #it's not like the other characters Dont have interactions outside of the mc its the fact that all their interactions Feed into the point of #our main character #the storytelling lover in me sings #crow.asks #the storytelling structure's a little different in part 2 tho and thats even more interesting #i could talk about the way u identify a mc in a story and the fact that thats so obviously asa coupled with the simultaneous #disenfranchisement of protag!denji

Reminders to self bc if I don't I'll be ruminating in misplaced guilt all afternoon

I am allowed to be annoyed over ultimately inconsequential things! Just because everything TO ME is intimately connected to the very fabric of the universe and the human soul because I'm Ill TM doesn't mean it is for everyone! And related, I am allowed to have opinions! I can make opinions in a joke post format and nothing bad is going to happen! I'm not being mean or cruel or sinning! I am simply! Having an opinion! Disagreement isn't inherently evil!!!

#franposting #anyway can u tell i grew up not allowed to have opinions #for fear of setting off the very tenuously kept atmosphere of the house #and anytime anyone was upset it was my fault and now im conflict avoidant #IM WORKING ON IT #it may seem silly. but i gotta write this lil reminder to myself #having it out in (internet) public makes it feel real to my brain #and therefore i can set it aside. turn of my phone for now. and continue with my day #the world isnt ending because i dared to have an opinion. nor is it ending bc i got annoyed easily even if i didnt do anything mean #no one is going to die because of my thoughts. thought crime about poetry isnt real. me @ me #ironically. this was abt misrepresenting themes of love and misplaced guilt and shame and loving oneself #and it then caused me to experience misplaced guilt! i am queen of guilt! #perhaps the ocd is why it means The Most To Me #but i am setting it aside to love and smile and also do my job #and i will sing on the drive home. and all will be well and all will be reconciled at the end of all things #oh. oh isnt that the loveliest comfort ive ever said

touya-nii needs to buy this for me asap and name it after himself and spray it with his cologne and cuddle it to his chest so it smells like him and his cigarettes and his smoke and his aura and his essence and himmm—sweet campfire and hickory wood and tangy marlboros—so that i can sleep with it stuffed in my arms, held tightly against my chest, pressed into my ribs with such vigour it’s as though i’m trying to force it between the bones and fill the whole cage with it, fill my whole fucking heart with it, while he’s off on his ‘business trips’ shattering skulls and spewing bits of brain and splattering thick blood of the men who have wronged him all over the place (all over the steel toes of his big black boots, all over fluffy ivory tufts, all over inky alabaster skin) because i miss him and i need him to come home now and this teddy bear will never ever ever be enough but at least it’s something when he’s away <3

#tw gore #tw stepcest #touya niiiiiiiiiiiii #i am in such a Babie mood today #like extra extra EXTRA Babie #because my period started this morning >.< #and that always makes me so whiny and clingy and neeeeeeedy #waah grr >:( #i am saying all of this without taking a single breath because i love him so so so so so so much #so fucking much #touya nii universe #clari daydreams <3 #la la la clari’s worldddd #if you didn’t sing that in the elmo’s world theme i am disappointed in you #(i’m kidding i love u i could never be disappointed in u <33)

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ❤

awww thank you for including me. this has just been sitting in my box for the past couple of days but HERE I AM- in no particular order:

This doesn't really have a name... It's just called Merman AU

and it's not a 'fanfic' it's half a collection of headcannons for this AU and half snippets from this idea that I posted on tumblr at @haikyuu-aus-cuz-i-cant-write (oops look who has actually written now jfdksalf) basically this is a cross between the little mermaid and the monkey's paw. I really liked this but it was wayyy too big of an idea for me to write and you can see that I stopped after writing Suga's wish which is reallly funny considering this whole idea spawned from wanting a mermaid/human bokuaka AU and i was not near to getting to the meat of the story at all

Things That Hold Us Together: Steel Bolts and Tender Hearts

yes i just recently posted this, yes i've had this in my folders for like 3 years. this one... this was spawned from an old friend - who i don't speak with anymore - offhand comment that a fanart looked like akashi was an android. four hours after they said that i had half of this fic, and they said it was the best writing i ever shared with them. they encouraged me to expand it but i kept hitting a wall and then we had a falling out and through out the years ive been coming back to this trying to add and edit and i decided to reclaim it as my own and publish it. the idea is that it's an introduction to a lighthearted sitcom/romcom between decommissioned war android akashi and engineer who fixed him up furihata

Language Barriers

i cyclically get star trek brainrot and this time it had a dash of akafuri, i really like how i described things in this one since furihata doesn't think in words but emotions and images instead, idk it was a good writing exercise

Horror wip

ive been hemming and hawing at it for literal months now because i have one central driving image behind my eyelids that i want to get to. its just been... harder than usual to get to it. i've rewritten like 3 times trying to get it write. i've currently landed on 2nd person narration with some thrown in spices of 1st person to signify that we are in the being- akashi's- point of view haunting furihata (the you) and its giving me an opportunity to make the reader feel akashi's destroying love from the front seat. my other goal with this is to write some surrealistic imagery soooo yeP

I Will Follow You Down Through The Gates of Hell

i cant not include this. this damn fic/series/idea has been brewing in the back of my mind for so damn long if it was a human child it could hold a fucking conversation. the imagery. the themes. the depth of emotion- AND WE ARE BARELY GETTING INTO THE WAR!? ITS BEEN 50K+ WORDS AND ITS JUST GETTING STARTED (or ending, if you wanna look at it that way) idk its... its been so long since i wrote part 1 that that fic doesn't feel like "mine" anymore? idk but it always makes me smile seeing an email saying that someone else liked the fics too.

#ask box #alienjack #jack #thank youuuu #i watched talk to me and it got me in a writing inspired mood hence why i dusted off a fic and posted it and finally got around to doing #this too #idk... i know they say to write for yourself- and i do!! (mostly) i don't read ocean eyes thats for damn sure- #and i know that all of my akafuri fics are for myself but some of them... #idk. i feel divorced from? does that make sense? a limb chopped off and given away? #like its not mine anymore? #maybe its just because they have themes i don't resonate with at the moment... maybe bc i didn't do them complete justice? #im not sure #do u feel that way at all? or because you are a literary person you feel more connected to your words #than i do... #some people need to write. they need to express thoughts and feelings or they will combust. they need to pluck words from the air #and sing them in song for the heart. #im im not liek that. #at least. that feeling that driving inspiring consuming feeling doesn't rest on me often. #there is one writing. one little drabble that i wrote while in my emotions that... that is mine. #maybe thats the difference. #as much as i have written. its a mimicry. a mockery of plot and feelings. things i have seen and read elsewhere. #i couldn't place my hand and breathe life into an emotion i haven't felt. not true emotion. #maybe i should just go to bed instead. #sORRY #lil rant

[assless-chapstick]

ok i need yuor help. help me with the colors. if kyojuro was a demon what color would he be

#yes the image is the worst quality imaginable becos it does Not need to be good u just need the colors adsgfg #the red with black tips makes me think singed or burnt but also makes me think of k*rishima #the grey with black tips makes me think of a snuffed flame or ashes but i like the red and the association of red with a typical oni #which is what i was also going for. so adhgsdhfgdg. #this is just leftover brainrot i dont go here. #i want it to Look Cool but i also want fun symbolism ya kno!!!! #i wanted to move away from black for clothes becos his fucking uniform is already black but if his hair is red then its too MUCH red #all white is kinda. lmao. also i didnt even put that here rip #hes supposed to have a mask also but that can wait. colors first #the problem with this design also is that if i make the colors go one way or the other he will look TOO much like an existing character #white hair with th white and red along with the oni theme makes me think y4mato onepiece #white hair generally. makes him look like an expy so ive not ended up doing that here #i envisioned the red hair and pants initially but when it came to actually drawing it i realised.... thats a lotta red omg.

sasuke ikesen needs a character song so i can make an amv of him to tsunagaru connect and an amv of rina lovelive to his hypothetical character song

#i think sasuke and rina are best friends. i think sasuke is her cool uncle #also i think like every character from ikesen needs a character song in general but yknow #LIKE we have one for like hideyoshi and ieyasu and i think uhhhh SHINGEN and ranmaru if i remember correctly #i'd understand if some characters like sasuke never got one since it doesnt seem like their seiyuu does singing #but we can do like an amnesia kent situation with him he can just monologue to a tune i'll accept that #BUT WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER SEIYUU WHO DO SING. i KNOW masamune's actor is a full out singer with like albums and stuff #and you cant hide from me mr mitsuhides voice actor i know u sing for that music franchise. i listen to quell. i know ur secrets #and im gonna be honest i dont need my anime character songs to have like. exceptional singing #like im happy with a few vocal lessons to hit the notes right and let the actor do whatever in character. i think its charming LOL #anyway. screaming crying throwing up because we only ever got 4 character songs #we did get a bunch of theme songs sung by maiko fujita tho which is pretty awesome

ah yes, once again thinking way too much about byan and their love for magical girl anime... about how it was such a comfort thing for them growing up because the genre is (typically) so upbeat and positive. about how it provided this really cheerful escape for them and how they'll still, to this day, put on their favourites for a bit of comfort when they're in a bad place. but on top of that, I'm thinking about how these anime and the cute characters and outfits were a huge inspiration in the way they explored their gender, and the ways they wanted to present. and how, of course, magical girls were and still are a huge influence on their style and fashion. hell, they're a big part of what encouraged byan to try wearing a skirt for the first time. these shows just!! have always meant so much to them!! and I don't talk about that enough!!!

#just crying about how byan always wanted to be one of those cute protagonists but i'm fine #it's such a huge thing in their life but they downplay it so hard #like they can recite the plot of every episode for a lot of these shows & sing all the themes & tell u with a lot of passion why the subs #are better than the dubs but. they hide a lot of just HOW passionate they are about them #bc like. that would make them feel really vulnerable and we all know how much they hate that feeling #(but also you KNOW they got bullied relentlessly growing up bc they were much more openly enthusiastic #'that's a girl thing' & 'that's so lame' & all the other hurtful things kids say. u know how it is. #definitely played a big part in why the aesthetics are still there but they don't. really talk about it.) #anyway someone stop me I could talk about this for hours and I'm just adhfjsg #━━ ˟ ⊰ ✰ HEADCANON ⋮ DANGER IN THE FABRIC OF THIS THING I MADE.
