ohh these are from an au? could you tell some details... 🥺

YES!!! there isn't a lot of info yet but i can tell you some!!

this is an au i'm making with some friends that's heavily based on a game we all like

for starters, this is a completely different universe, the competition doesn't happen here but dynamics are (somewhat) similar. the au takes place in a tiny fictional town by the sea, which is where the characters meet for the first time. the town is haunted as fuck btw and no one can figure out why

bryce is the only one out of batch 1 that ever left the town, and is moving back home for break after having left several years prior for college. his sister (stella) is missing which is what prompted him to leave in the first place. his thalassophobia plays a role in the story as despite being an aquatic mammal (leopard seal) he is terrified of water and never goes near the ocean.

airy is a mysterious long time resident of the town who mostly keeps to himself? some traumatic event several years ago cost him an eye and made him retire early, so he spends his time making and selling sculptures. he knows more about the town's history than anyone else

amelia is a part-time yoga instructor as well as attends the local college (of which she is a part of the swim team because shes an otter idk). she and airy are kind of friends but she doesn't know nearly as much as he does about the town itself

liam also attends the local college and lives in an apartment off campus. not much to say about him hes just a normal guy who is about to have a Very bad time :)

charlotte and parker are also there, and as of the beginning of the au they aren't on speaking terms. charlotte routinely goes to the local hospital to treat her infection and tends to get into a lot of trouble with the authorities

all of batch one grew up together and were childhood friends before stella's disappearance (minus charlie, who isnt present in the au, and taylor who ends up moving in and its still a teen here. she works at the gas station)

the batch 2 contestants are also residents of the town and are more minor characters. some of the season 1 guys are here as well. julien is a famous filmmaker who moved to the town to get away from the spotlight and live a quiet life but obviously that plan goes tits up because nothing good can ever happen to anyone

so basically everyone is here and they reunite with each other and it's a fun time until it's not. also airy hit and killed stella with his truck in the same accident that made him lose his eye and no one knows that this happened

#hfjone #object shows #hfjone au #onehfj #object show community #text tag #yeah thats basically what we have so far. no concrete story yet #the au is a horror au and i dont want to say the game its based on publicly #because the game has a lot of adult themes but if youre above 18 you can message me and ill tell you #its probably easy to guess anyway if youre a furry and you have two braincells to rub together

okay I’ve spent a lot of time reading jack x Ianto fic this past week (around 18hours if my screen time is to be believed) and one thing I’ve noticed is that the dominant fandom characterisation of ianto is “soft baby boi 🥺🥺” and don’t get me wrong I love that. but I feel like we’re forgetting that 1 (one) ianto jones also:

-harboured his cyberman gf in torchwood 3’s basement

-essentially got his job by being an annoying shit and catching a dinosaur

-shot Owen for opening the rift

-literally threw Jack into a portal to a hell planet

-knocked out a dragon

-single-handedly blew up a housing estate with a homemade petrol bomb

-hijacked a forklift to break his bf out of a secret prison facility

in short: ianto is a chaos gremlin and I feel like we need to acknowledge this further

#torchwood #ianto jones #I love ianto with all of my heart #I know I’ve snuck a couple audio things in there too but he’s so chaotic in them that I can’t not #ianto jones: chaos gremlin #I know we all say that ianto has the one braincell in torchwood but I really don’t think he does #none of them have a braincell between them #also I’m not over him breaking jack out in coe #he is bebe tho #man needs lots of hugs

(dimension 20 neverafter episode 4 spoilers)

Big bad wolf as a grim reaper/harbinger of death figure as opposed to being a straightforward antagonist... I think this is a very interesting framing particularly as they keep the title "big bad wolf" in his title card, so it's like... Idk the juxtaposition of the perception of him versus the true nature of him as an entity? If I am reading it right and the wolf is more supposed to represent death than "evil" per se (whatever value the concept of "evil" has in this setting) then I think the way Brennan plays him is pitch perfect, not a "good" force or a "bad" force so much as he is an inevitability

Speaking of complicating that simplistic moral framework of the "big bad wolf" - ylfa's grandma transforming into a wolf, so the grandma and the wolf are perhaps not different and opposed but two sides of the same coin (thought it was really interesting the way Brennan talked about it, like the grandma is not necessarily a disguise bc she is also the wolf but it's not necessarily so simple as they are the same either - maybe they are the same, or maybe part of grandma ate part of the wolf, or maybe parts of them exist in the other, etc. Etc.). But maybe we should put aside the exact details about the relation b/w grandma and the wolf, like I'm not sure that those matter so much as, like, the idea that that duality exists and is real. grandma's line of you can't have the oatmeal raisin cookies without walking through the woods to get there; ylfa is both the little girl and the wolf, and both the potential for the heroic and the monstrous live inside her... I am Thinking

#neverafter spoilers #d20 spoilers #dimension 20 #d20 #neverafter #sarah.txt #this is more or less me just stream of consciousness'ing some thoughts #maybe tomorrow I'll have some more coherent analysis (i probably won't lol) #actually i think brennan is doing a LOT of interesting things with morality/good v bad with everyone #esp in the context of fairytales which traditionally has a pretty well defined sense of good v wrong #but ylfa does blorbo my braincells so her vignette is what is currently at the forefront of my mind #can i also say i fucking love that zac is playing a trickster cat god it's everything i could have ever wanted <33 #d20 meta #story meta

Skimblegus Family Time--Tumble takes after Asparagus more and more the older he gets, but Teazer takes after Skimble a lot more than people give her credit for. They're both these very bright, clever, and relentlessly cheerful cats who try to put a brave face on things and hide when they're not at their best. But when they crash, they crash hard; it became a bittersweet source of reconnection after she was free of Macavity, especially since Teazer didn't realize her dad ever had bad days. She can basically only stand to be around her dads, Tumble, and Mungojerrie on particularly awful days, and Skimble's learned more from Asparagus about how not to just pack those emotions away to worry about later. Plus, you know she's feeling better when she and Tumble can start picking at each other again.

I love it so much, and I love this little family <3

#Rumpleteazer #Skimbleshanks #Asparagus #Tumblebrutus #other headcanons #jellicles ask because jellicles dare #theimpossiblescheme #and of course because you and i share the braincell i had a very similar vein of thought #that teazer got told all the time how much like her father she was and she would scoff and do everything in her power to deny that #and she'd especially hate it when mungojerrie would say it because he usually did when he was annoyed with her and they were arguing #which became more frequent when they were with macavity #and skimble was so good at pretending everything was alright he turned it into an olympic sport #he broke down very rarely and when he *did* it was a sight #i also think he and teazer are a lot alike in that they will say things before thinking them through #particularly during high stress moments - and they can be downright nasty and say things they don't really mean #before their brains catch up to their mouths because they operate so *quickly* and so on the line with their immediate feelings #skimble has learned to tone it down over the years - teazer is still young and sometimes her mouth is too big #and of course when even tumble was hesitantly pushing his rope toy towards her and asking if maybe she wanted to play #even though they were way too old at the time after teazer came back you *knew* she was in a bad way #and he feels uneasy and stays relatively in her company (and his dads can sense that he feels bad but doesn't know what to do) #basically begging her to call him names or stick bugs in his ears or a worm in his bed or *something* because whoever this queen is #she isn't his step-sister and he doesn't like it #anyway many thoughts head scrambled - i love them so much thank you <3

the way people literally misread EVERY single detail about rebecca and only cared about the parts where she was being protected speaks volumes about how sexist is the fanbase, they only expect a woman's value in being able to fight and not in her struggle to survive and keep up despite being an underdog carrying the heavy weight of unfortunate circumstances

#rebecca #rebecca one piece #re-reading dressrosa and WCI #i love her and pudding a lot but the fandom treated them like absolute crap #“how dare a woman/girl show her emotions and feelings when she's under stress and fear?” #and before someone says that they hate her ONLY because of her armor; there's a difference between hating someone's clothes and hating THEM #the anime fandom has one single braincell bouncing around in their brains and it shows #rant

Insane that Blade during Todd's quest did basically the same thing Dan Heng was doing during this last video

#Fragments and scraps #I talk too much #I had just finished Todd's quest and I had so many questions and hypotheses and then the video dropped #And goodness it gave me even more things to ponder but I also think it kind of cleared things up when it came to what was Blade mourning #I also wondered whether this came after Kafka's companion mission but now I'm pretty sure it comes before it? I think it makes sense #Seeing confirmation of Yingxing being old looking was so hard to watch whilst compared to how young Jing Yuan sounds in Chinese #And when seeing him alongside Jingliu and Baiheng‚ who were both mature women when he was a little kid #No wonder he is so prideful of his craft. He deserves it. I really adore how they implemented a lot of details in the worldbuilding #and sidequests that throw light towards the characterisation and story of some of the main characters #Specifically I can't stop thinking about Yingxing in the context of how we see shortlife humans are regarded by some people on the Xianzhou #and especially in the context of the sidequest about the master and the apprentice. Everything it implies #Anyway... This video broke me. The confrontation between Dan Heng and Dan Feng was hard enough #(guy leave the boy alone‚ *he* has nothing to repent of) as well as beautiful. Some shots were gorgeous and full of symbolism #But seeing the five friends... goodness. Yingxing's bitter smile carries a weight that I think goes beyond him losing to Jingliu #given his age and how young his friends look. The way Jing Yuan reacts as if having the braincell but also teasing them was so him #The way his voice broke later on while reading Imbibitor Lunae's punishment took me out #Baiheng reminded me a bit of March 7th in this video. It may be due to how March reacts to Dan Heng's melancholic air towards the end #And how Baiheng reacts to Imbibitor Lunae's and Yingxing's at the beginning. I don't know if the parallelism was purposeful but I loved it #They all felt actually a lot closer than I expected. Mainly Jingliu. I expected her to be close only to Baiheng given what Jing Yuan says #The images that flash over the sentence were so good and so heartbreaking #Yingxing looking at the figure over the moon‚ his chest being pierced by the sword Blade now wields‚ #Jingliu blindfolded slicing something‚ someone suspended in chains‚... #And the heavy absence in those images of Jing Yuan‚ whose breaking voice hovers over them all #Truly brought back to mind Blade's line about him. How he knew better than anyone but he did or said nothing #And how he is not one of those who must pay #Everything was so charged I wanted to scream or jump off a cliff. The way the faces of Dan Heng and Dan Feng superimpose ugh #Truly everything was so good #I have so many thoughts about it I can't stop thinking hahaha #But I better shut up already. I should sleep a bit #I want to scream though. The Dan Heng/Blade parallelism makes me want to drown a sea‚ ontological barriers be damned haha

Kaito loves taking the opportunity to let Shinichi sit on a high chair or a tall surface just so he can see him unconsciously swing his legs back and forth.

It's an old habit from Shinichi's Conan Days he unknowingly hasn't gotten rid of since opportunities to realize it is scarce now that his feet reaches the floor. Kaito thinks this is ABSOLUTELY adorable though and endeavors to see it (record it, make a video compilation of it, send it to yukiko and ran so they can all coo together).

#kaishin #kudou shinichi #kuroba kaito #detective conan #dcmk #i should be asleep #but brain said omg conan habits carrying over to shinichi is adorable #and then braincells connrcted and was like #omg kaito would toyally manipulate the situation into which shinichi would have to sit on a chair or surface high enough that his feet dont #reach the floor #idk i love the image of shinichi in a crime scene deep in thought with fierce calculating eyes #sitting somewhere and swaying his feet back and forth #like yes lol he looks like he's about to unravel your entire life story and pry a confession out of you with just the look in his eyes #but at the same time he just looks like the cutest thing ever sitting up there saying legs like that #lol #dc prattles #it's cute okay!!!!! #kaito succeeds a lot btw and has a secret album full of videos of shinichi swinging his legs lol #kaishin comic

It's always a bit concerning when different meta turns into something akin to discourse.

#did i miss like a whole chapter of tumblr stuff while i was at con ?? #i stick by everyone has their right to their own opinions and interpretations and whatever #but i dislike how one singular person is considered the expert and is put on a pedestal. #to the point that they're mentioned when someone doesn't agree with a take #unless they're the creator i'm not taking what they say as canon. at all. widely accepted or not. because it /isn't/. #because widely accepted doesn't equal accurate or right #no matter how well researched it is either. because i still don't think one singular person is 100% right when it comes to /everything/. #except the creator or creators themselves #popularity is just popularity #also yeah i'm bias too because i really really dislike a lot of their takes and could counter a lot of them too but it's pointless. #there can be good interpretations and shitty interpretations. but that's the beauty of fandom spaces #thank you for coming to my tedtalk #personal #i would love to post my own meta and probably will sometime when i grow a second braincell. so it's a little less jumbled insanity. #also it's mostly krauser centric so that has little to no bearing on leon. #also we're talking about a series that's almost as old as me #that has multiple timelines and retcons and inconsistencies and a novelization and live action movies. #like /come on people./ #we all know where i stand when it comes to ID too tbh
