Am I (33, f) the asshole for bringing up a childhood story that made my cousin (36, f) uncomfortable in front of others?

Obviously based on the title alone, I'm an asshole, but I think I might be justified and would like a second opinion.... thanks!

So a little back story for context....I love my cousin. I truly do. We all grew up together so all of us are more like sisters than cousins. my cousin is beautiful, loud, and boisterous. She's loves to get attention and will try to get it anywhere she can. She posts on FB multiple times a day about her job, kids, or relationship. She's the golden child and she tries her hardest to live up to that reputation. She's the type of person who will get out of her car after a good song dancing and singing at the top of her lungs, especially if there are other people around to watch her, much to her kids dismay lol. She just knows how to have a good time and I honestly love that about her. I tend to be more reserved and relaxed, so I get a kick out of our differences.

But with that, she tends to be.... disingenuous... when someone steals the spot light from her, even when it's unintentional (which is the majority of the time, like they will just be sharing a story from work or something). She will act unbothered by it, but then her attitude will totally change. she will be fake nice and then bring up something that will make the person either embarrassed or want to retreat... then go right back to being content when the attention is back on her again. She does it so often, I kind of expect it to happen every time we hang out.

So here's the part where I may be the asshole... we're at a playzone for one of our other cousins kids' birthday and we're in a good handful sized group of adults chit chatting. A few people I've never met before but she knows them and we were all getting along just fine.

People tend to naturally be drawn to me because I try to be open and get along with most people, so I've been on the receiving end of my cousin's attitude a handful of times and this was one of those times lol. I'm typically not bothered by it because I'm a pretty confident person for the most part and I know my cousin well enough not to take it personally, but this time annoyed me because this is now the 5th time she's bringing this story up. It was like she didn't get the reaction out of me that she wanted the first 4 times, so now she really needed to land it this time. So I gave her a reaction....

A few minutes before I was sharing a story that the others were impressed by, I guess, but we moved on from it and I didn't think any more of it. Then while we were all talking, I believe I excused myself because I let out a small burp. So she goes, loudly so the group can hear, "do you remember when you were 6 and you were crying to your dad because your butt was itchy and you wanted him to scratch it? I don't know why, but your burp reminded me of that". So I'm like "ok? So?" Kids cry for stupid shit all the time and I was a stupid kid lmao. So I brushed it off but she decided to keep pushing it! And was like "yeah you were crying because you didn't want to scratch your ass and you sat there crying until it went away"

I was and still am unbothered by the story she brought up but I was more than a bit annoyed that she wouldnt let it go, so without much thinking I said "no I don't remember that as clearly as you do.... But I do remember my sister slapping the fuck out of you for saying something racist (we're half Asian) and out of pocket. Then you cried to your mama then she told your mom that you were lucky that all you got was a slap to the face... do you remember that?" She went ghost white, looked around the group and said "family is funny like that, huh?"

So am I the asshole for bringing up a story that made my cousin uncomfortable?

What are these acronyms?

anonymous asked: aita for accidently indirectly killing my friend?

sorry for any spelling mistakes, im still shaken up by the whole thing

so i (14F) and my friend, who ill call P (14F) have recently both gone on a school trip to some werid factory (wont bother specifying which as to not doxx me), now i was known for being kinda, i guess "rude"? and while we seperated from the group and P was already slightly nervious about that, we went onto the catwalks and despite her pleading i decide to walk to a sign that said "NOT SAFE" or something along those lines

surprise surprise i fell, near me was a vat of boiling hot sauce or whatever and me, having somehow survived the fall, i decided to play a little prank, i would stay hiding in there for afew days, i think i managed to stay in there for 3 days? before i got kicked out

now first i visited my boyfriends house to tell him that im alive and whatever, and then i went to P's house, knowing it was like 2 am or something, i rang like three times i think and then i heard something fall

as it turned out, P had fallen off the roof of her house (i have no idea what she was doing in the first place) AND HAD SNAPPED HER NECK, i obviously screamed, who wouldnt, now i went from being the most popular girl in school to an outcast because of this

are you really living life if you havent gotten an expirience where your older sibling just dissapears or dies

⚡ chucks-vent-blog

like when i was younger my brother had these reaccouring near freak-accidents of him almost loosing an eye or an arm and i was trying to tell him that maybe he had annoyed this one animatronic he tried to freak me out with and he yelled at me and then told me to come find him after school and then it turned out he got hit by a car, i wish i could explain to people normally about this without ti sounding werid

🎫 silliestlittleguy

how normal is this expirience? not my brother but my cousin just dissapeared suddenly, i had saved up so many tickets just to get him a gift from the nearby arcade! :(

🍬 horse-sona

god this is so true, i had a step-sister who dispised me because i was getting all the attention and just out of spite ate my candy that was specifically given to me by the place we were visiting, the next day we found out she had snuck out and the car was taken elsewhere with no sign of her, we figured she ran away or something but its been so long we decided shes dead at this point

my older brother tried to flush my pet sea bonnies down the toilet because he apparently saw them eating his fish or something, never saw him again after that and the only witness just said he looked blue, i still have no idea what that means

Okay this is part 2 of

If only we could spend more time together,

Our beloved creator~

Its been quite a while since your return to your own world. Its been nice being back with your friends and family (and not being hunted down) but for a while you stopped playing genshin.

Everyone on the tevyat had gotten used to it by now, you abandonned them, and they deserved it. They killed you and your friend. Or at least so they thought. But slowly you started missing playing the game, so you thought why not start again? I mean what harm could it cause?

And the people were overjoyed! Your divine gaze was watching them again! Usually you'd speak to them but you kept quiet. But you ofcourse didn't forget what they did. So instead of your sweet voice speaking about all it could think about. It turned cold and most of the time silent. It scared the acolythes to hear you warn them to not bring your there again. now ofcourse you didn't mean that but you didn't wanna feel the pain of being stabbed once again. But slowly with time you started to talk again (only to those who did not cause harm) (and yes reader used to speak to the characters about whatever your brain could think of) wich caused a little bit of rivalry between the people. I mean why would you not speak to the people you always had held so close?

One day your friend storms into your room with a beautiful letter in their hand, saying your name was on it. Wait why did you have a letter- why not sent a text. As you open it and read the letter

Hello divine creator

I know you wont forget all what we did, but we all miss ur beautiful voice blessing our ears when hearing it. Better said we miss all of you. We are begging for you to return and give us another chance to make things better and to face whatever punishment you have in mind. I did this without the others knowing of my actions so please do not punish them for my little stunt

-nahida

You look at the paper in horror. How did they do that. But hold up nahida did this? She didn't do anything? But that was also a problem. Even the people that didn't try and hunt you down, they did nothing to stop them. They just left you to rot alone. "(Nickname) whats with that look? Let me see that"

You see their expression change from happy to a one full of shock. "Y/n what are you gonna do with this" yet you did not hear this. What are you gonna do, do they have the power to forcefully get you there, what if you do go what would happen- "Y/N!" You snap out of your thoughts and see your friend. "What am i gonna do (friends name)?!" "Wait if they could hear my voice then i might be able to-

"y/n if they all hear your voice when speaking it would be impossible to speak in private with the person that wrote it"

Oh shit they were right. If they all heard your voice then how would you speak with nahida about the letter. "What if i went back in secret? Wait no then they could think im an imposter again"

"what if we change your look?"

"sounds good i guess but-"

You cut yourself off when seeing a green light appear in front of you.

They had to. The people were going crazy because of them not being spoken to. Or atleast the ones that were not spoken to. Nahida only tried doing the best for them and reach out to you.

You start walking backwards from the light until hearing Nahida's soft voice.

"Hello divine one, im so sorry for bothering you and i know you dont want anything to do with tevyat and the people that hurt you but ever since you only speak to the ones that didn't harm you its broke out in utter chaos between the people. Im only asking for your help this time and then you can go back. I promise we wont bother you after that".

You were in shock. Chaos? Because of you? You started to feel guilty because of it.

"i will fix what i cause and then get back, do we have a deal?". Your friend looks at you in shock. "Are you really gonna risk it?" You turn to your friend "if i truly caused that then it would also be my duty to solve it wouldnt it?" Your friends nods.

"Okay are you ready?"

"yes"

AAAAND THATS IT FOR THIS PART :D

Your blog makes me... Feel...

Can you explain what it is about incest you like? I'm trying to sort out my feelings.

All I know is that if I were related to you by blood, I'd totally fuck you. So um...

well first things first, telling women (or anyone, really) you'd fuck them unprompted is inappropriate even if theyre running blogs about kinks. you're not being gross about it so im not bothered or upset, but its something you should keep in mind.

as for what i like about incest, im not completely sure! i know a lot of people DISlike it because of a psychological phenomenon known as the Westermarck effect, which causes people to feel uncomfortable at the thought of sex with people they grew up with. i am not affected by this, but a lot (probably the majority) of incest enjoyers still would recoil at the thought of actually fucking a relative, so theres usually more going on.

personally, i think it stems from the fact that i didnt really develop an emotional connection to my family. the idea of having siblings youre close with, who are there for you and support you and care about you, is really alluring. and theres a closeness you feel with people youve grown up with just by virtue of knowing them for so long, and you just dont get that with dating other people.

then again, theres also the fact that my brain's kind of broken and interprets sibling relationships incorrectly. im a naturally monogamous and extremely jealous person, but it genuinely wouldnt bother me if my hypothetical partner was sleeping with her sibling. i would just think it was hot. meanwhile id be getting jealous if she fuckin, reblogged posts from someone else instead of me, or spent time with friends who werent me. this is why i dont date anymore and prefer sisterhood, bc i could never be jealous of a sister. sisters can date whoever they want, thats not my business. much healthier overall!

i dont know that this will help you any, but i hope it does!

Hello! This is my main blog! (I'm legend-as-old-as-time.)

So, I've got a favorite. But the other two AUs also fascinate me. I'd love to know what the story is for your G3 of Bionicle? What's the atmosphere like?

BLASTS MY THOUGHTS DIRECTLY INTO YOUR BRAIN TO EXPLAIN THEM FASTER AND POSSIBLY BETTER THAN THROUGH WORDS

as mentioned i have a post in drafts thats meant to be like. a vague skeleton of thoughts and ideas and shit that ive talked about to and with @cantankerouscanuck, mainly introducing the various character groups n the environment slightly, but it does NOT touch on the story much (more the backstory and again only vaguely) so GREAT QUESTION LET ME TELL YOU

thinking of like uhhhh diving this in like. cartoon seasons but old school ones yknow, so LONG ones bc oh boy ADVENTURES

Season 1 starts with that Classic Bionicle Beginning of the toa mata crashlanding on the archipelago of Okoto each on a different island not knowing what the Fuck to do and being welcomed in the villages. like in g2 theyre first tasked with finding some golden relics but instead of being accompanied by the protectors/village elders they go with the local Weird Kids (the chronicler's company) who were the first people they actually met; getting the things lets them reach the island of the mask makers and meet Ekimu (and takua!!!! his apprentice!!!!!!!) and theyre like "so what do we do with these btw" and ekimu looks at the pieces and goes. FUCK

TURNS OUT THOSE RELICS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE GOLDEN MASKS BUT SOME MF JUST BROKE THEM INTO PIECES and wouldnt you fucking believe it it was the Children Of Makuta, the spirit of death and animals and darkness, who live each on one of the islands except spiriah the baby of the family who roams around bothering literally everybody and ofc dont want the toa to reawaken the Great Spirit whom their parent put to sleep, AND SO BEGINS THE FETCH QUEST OF THE OTHER FIVE PIECES OF EACH MASK WHILE FIGHTING OFF THESE FREAKS OF NATURE WHO ARE TRYING TO EAT THEM AND BUILDING CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THEMSELVES & EKIMU & TAKUA N HIS POSSE & THE VILLAGERS AND SLOWLY BECOMING A PROPER TEAM N FAMILY which is why they need to be many episodes. i will fucking recreate almost verbatim the tale of the mask kopaka-pohatu story because its already perfect and you will Fucking See It if i have to Kill For It

closes off with a cliffhanger after getting all the masks: during an ambush by Mutran Gali gets dragged off into the sea between the islands to get crushed by the water pressure but whats this??, the pressure suddenly lifts enough to let her breathe as she loses consciousness while strange silhouettes drive off the child of Makuta and catch her in his stead, sinking deeper...

S2 starts off by quickly catching up to the rest of the toa who are SHITTING THEIR FUCKING SELVES ABOUT THEIR WATER-BREATHING SISTER APPARENTLY DROWNING BEFORE THEM

tahu and pohatu decide to look for her in a ball of tempered glass while kopaka, onua and lewa hurry back to ekimu to tell him what happened. back to gali, she awakens to a bunch of... toa???? who know her and her brothers???? personally, apparently????? three of them are like super mad at them for leaving them during their time of need??????? what the FUCK are you people talking about. who are u. how are you breathing under water. why is tHERE A WHOLE FUCKING CITY UNDER THE WATER-

ENTER: THE TOA MAHRI. as it slowly turns out inbetween rounds of beating the shit out of sapient polyamorous seafood that keeps trying to nibble the villagers and the air bubble domes for their crops, they were TRAINED by the mata a few hundreds years ago and were fighting off the cataclysm that broke the continent of okoto into islands and sunk the city of Iniri into the sea together with them before they just Fucking Left, Apparently - which ofc they didnt do for no reason but they essentially got shoved back into the stars against their will. this rightfully rattles the shit out of the mata because What Do You Mean We Have Been Here Before. What Do You Mean You Had Records Of Us Being Here Even Earlier Than That. How Many Times Have We Done This. How Many Times Have We Discovered Kinship And Affection And Had That Stripped Away From Us. I Think I'm Going To Throw Up

while theyre handling THAT they also fill in the mahri on whats been going on and the mahri go oh shit, the great spirit is in a coma and the children of makuta are against you??? bro those guys are super powerful theyve got Crabs, you cant fight em alone. but also if we try to leave the sea the water pressure Will Fucking Destroy Us, so they figure out a way to get out of there and back up and jaller is super anxious bc his mom might be there but like... based on what they said... she might be evil... he doesnt wanna fight her... shes the only family he still has...

S3 AND WE GO BACK TO SEE WHAT KOPAKA ONUA AND LEWA ARE DOING, and theyre off searching the more ruined parts of the city of the mask makers on takua's suggestion - these are the parts of the city that werent very lucky during the cataclysm and are now sacred ground prowled by Krika, daughter of Makuta

at last they find a strange underground chamber with six breathing statues, which, of course, freaky; they manage to thaw one and out tumbles a toa (?) who immediately recognizes onua and starts talking to him excitedly (??) saying that its so good to see him in person for the first time (???) and asking him about the continent (????) and being genuinely distraught that they dont know who he is. same reactions from the other five toa that also get thawed out. ok something is Clearly Amiss pls explain

its time for LOMN...... 2!!!!!! where we learn from vakama abt how Lhikan, who previously filled in ekimu's position, finds out theres Some Shit going down with the great spirit and makuta and tries to call the mata, who however get stuck due to the aformentioned Some Shit. as such she picks out six lads in the city of the mask makers and bestows masks upon them to make them become toa, but on their way to handle the current problem they get werebeast'd and Krika goes oh? free kids? free kids for me? and Lhikan goes NO but its too late. they already have joint custody of the metru. and might be blossoming a lesbian romance but unfortunately due to lhikan being lhikan i have to kill her to protect vakama, leaving krika with him AND his little brother jaller who will inherit lhikan's mask. the metru figure out the way to get the mata in this case is to attempt to contact them themselves, which they manage to do by entering a trance that however slowly turns them into statues: in this trance they are able to speak and train the mata, who also promise to free them once the whole situation is handled

CONSIDERING THE CATACLYSM HAPPENED AND THEY GOT SHOT BACK IN THE SKY AND GOT AMNESIA YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT PROMISE KIND OF WENT TO SHIT

anyways thats A Lot as you can imagine and the time to process it is Not Much bc the other three mata and the mahri are here and (after a round of MASSIVE HUGS for the metru and mahri reuniting and also the metru and Krika) theyve got a plan to beat the shit out of makuta

problem: the children of makuta have realized this is happening and decided to break out The Crabs to beat the shit out of THEM

mahri, metru and krika (and the chronicler's company much to everybody else's heart attacks) hold them off while the mata manage to fight against makuta after being briefly overwhelmed, uniting their powers to uh. Kill Him. which! IS NOT ACTUALLY GOOD. YOU KNOW. BALANCE AND ALL THAT. makuta is saved in the end by The Great Fucking Spirit who wakes up just in time to stop the mata before they murder his brother

the mata awaken before the Great Spirit and after a moment of "where are we? who are you? why didn't you let us kill makuta?" and getting their answers, they realize OH FUCK ARE YOU GOING TO PUT US IN THE STARS AGAIN? AND GIVE US AMNESIA? FUCK YOU YOURE NOT TAKING OUR FRIENDS AND SIBLINGS FROM US

Great Spirit, lovingly: ok :)

and tahu wakes up to ekimu working at the forge and none of his siblings around and he Shits His Pants, but ekimu quickly reassures him that everythings good and its been like, maybe a day or two since they managed to reawaken the Great Spirit. his siblings woke up before him and are probably down at the beach, and Makuta got driven off, all of his children following suit to take care of him, krika included. the mahri and the metru are catching up on the mata's tales from the chronicler's company. things are fine. they wont be like this forever, ekimu tells tahu, but they dont have to live in fear every second of their lives. rest a while. go see your siblings.

and it ends with the mata having a very sweet nap pile on the beach because they FUCKING deserve it after TWO whole generations ending with them not getting to just fucking sleep after EVERYTHING THEY GO THROUGH EVERY TIME

as you can see i have. Enormous Holes in this and theres things i havent explained and stuff (like how i unfortunately had to sacrifice hewkii x macku due to a Very Big age difference but they are still a power pair, just in this case its like older cousin acting as a mentor to the worlds most bloodthirsty weird little girl) but yes. have this. for now. please keep asking questions i love you

you are so cool and non judgemental to chat with, so thanks very much once again! yeah I think the whole hysteria abojt idols fs in away its intruiging from a non obsessive point of view but for those who do obsess about idols fs are going to be in for a shock whenber idols are revealed to be dating and shock horror, its not themselves.

honestly I regret not really going for it and learning a genuine skill that I could then use later on but sometimes its just matter of having opportunities or being in the right situations to actually gain those skills, for example you could go to a really shitty school and learn something amazing or you can go to a better school but have shitty classmates or teachers that are of no real use to you or courses that arent available and so on and so forth, whilst idols have to go through a lot I do think what they get to do is super cool cause when they pass on they have a legacy to be proud of. Sadly I think it just comes down to them being in the right areas or theyre from the right families who can invest so much into idols gaining their skills and talents. I have yet to really see someone from my country denut in kpop group sooooo it kind of says a lot of where kpop is heading and that they were going to smerica come what may. its just sometimes our situations are very limiting and we cant always win at everything in life either or say you might want to do something but realistically you know its slim to none chances and i think at some point it has an age limit of when you can succeed at it. So even if i wanted to do what i originslly wanted it would take many more years just to get to a good skill and even then you might not be the best at it

I also think sometimes social media makes things neither great nor bad cause people can upload their skills and really empahsis on what they want nowadahs whereas when I was a kid we were doing fuck all with our free time yaknow? kids nowadays shouldnt waste their younger years is what im saying. sometimes i think that i dont fit in with my generation cause of how screen obsessed we all have become and then i dont fit in with newer generations cause they have so many more ways of making success for themselves, im just like what can i offer? honestly not much.

thats also why i lowkey wouldnt mind passing on early just to get out of this screen world that we are in and yet older generations were never bothered with taking selfies then they wouldnt habe been able to get social validation via online, so they were probs happier and things were at least affordable back then. i kinda envy the older generations in that respect, we only got to experience a small handful of years without the pressures of social media and ever since idfk 00s or earlier it kinda went to shit really.

everyone was expected to be online and idk how i really feel about it anymore im sort of over it and modern society generally sucks. so many idols get backlash for no good reason, youtubers who dont do anything wrong get gossiped about and snark pages are endless so even if someone wants to do something amazing with their lives they cant avoid scrutiny of any sorts. its just got way out of hand and its past the point of saying well just dont use it then cause we technically need these devices constantly so ergo its not hard to not be delulu about celebs and the likes either cause its literally everywhere.

Sorry for the late response, been caught up in some important stuff recently (it's not bad stuff LMAO)!! Anyways, thank you so much! I try my best to remain open-minded of any/all perspectives before forming an opinion of my own and even so, I'm very open to hearing others opinions on these matters. Debating issues is something I genuinely enjoy, as long as it is a polite and healthy debate ofc. It is quite interesting, I'd say it has something to do with the "loneliness epidemic" (as I like to call it) of these times. We're in a time where technology is increasing rapidly and human interaction isn't as common, we're more attached to our screens than actual people and that becomes an issue when it places you out of touch with reality! The obsessions over being an FS and whatnot is genuinely awful, like fans hating on idols and their relationships have led to some couples even splitting; look at Lee Jae Wook and Karina from Aespa as our most recent example. It's never too late to try, really. You can learn any skill no matter your age as long as you can put enough effort in, remain disciplined and dedicate time to it! I think your point there is quite valid, but since technology has advanced so rapidly, you can realistically learn most skills online now by a few quick google searches, taking notes, learning and applying them practically. I think it is quite cool how idols have a legacy that'll be remembered for a while. It's something I'd want to achieve before passing on, as even though making an impact, being remembered, etc isn't a neccessity it does in a way lessen the anxiety about passing on? It makes you feel like there is a chance that people will still mention you, bring you up, that what you did could be studied or researched by other people, that your story could motivate others into getting their shit together, etc. A lot of idols aren't in the right areas or families, though. I'll use BTS as an example here; some members had extremely poor families and were from a run-down agency that could never compete with the big 3. Look at where they are now? They single-handedly built up their label, going from Bighit to HYBE. Practice makes perfect, the more you practice, the more work you put in, the better you will get at that skill! Obviously, blind optimism isn't helpful but if you take the realistic steps in place to where you want to be in the next few years now; it will happen and you will succeed. I completely agree that we, as a society, have all become too screen obsessed and I'm also guilty of this, but it is an issue. It's caused a lot of parents to just let the screen teach their kids, too. I'm sure you have a lot to offer to the world, even if you might not think so. You can do it, though! I believe in you and I'm proud of what you have done so far :] !! I had a discussion with a friend about a similar topic to this, but a lot of trends now are fueled by "nostalgia" where things looked happier and less daunting to live in. I think after 2015 is when things started to spiral, but that's my personal take. You're more than free to disagree with anything I've said!! I don't think you should force yourself to be online, stick to the trends, etc. Do what makes you happy and you'll see yourself shine brilliantly! And yeah, a lot of delusional ideals are fueled by big companies nowadays, too, since fans will obviously put more money into those celebs if they feel like they might get "noticed" - which could also be why concert tickets are getting higher and higher even for newly debuted groups. That's my take on all this, though, feel free to respond and add on, agree, disagree, etc! <33

i am so fucking angry right now. like the kind of anger thats pent up and bubbles beneath the skin and is ready to implode out at any fucking second and i hate it so much. i dont feel like i have very good reasons for feeling this way either. or maybe im downplaying those reasons, i dunno

i dont want to bother any of my friends with this shit. i feel guilty because ik they have their OWN struggles. ik feeling this way is silly because i help them through so much, and am so glad to do so. but theres always this doubt.

anyway. on discord, i put my status on DNIUC sometimes because i just need space and ik that most of my close friends will see this and know to be careful that day. or if they text and im slow to respond, ik they understand. but theres these friends who KEEP spamming. and its driving me FUCKING MAD. one, who is very close and gosh i love them so much, sends me so much every day. youd think after the first few times i didnt respond, he'd get the fucking jist and think "ill stop there" but instead he KEEPS ON. ITS OVERWHELMING. and the subject of these texts isnt bad or anything, but its always about him and his bf. i dont have the energy to talk about them 24/7. im beyond happy for him, that hes happy. but FUCK. im asexual and never have been in a relationship, and sometimes it feels like a fuckyou to me?? ik he doesnt mean it that way at all!! but!!! idk, sometimes its like theres a longing for a bf of my own. but i dont want to settle. ill wait for the right boy. right now, hes not here. and im not actively looking for a relationship, i have so much shit going on. so, i usually ignore this guys dms as long as i can. i feel guilty, but at the same time fucking furious that i even have to do it in the first place, if that makes sense. i love him dearly, but it's forced me to just put my status on 'invisible' so it looks like im offline. better to avoid people, ig.

theres another guy, who isnt as close, but ive made great friends with thus far in the time ive met him over a game i enjoy. but again, doesnt know when to stop. why are you texting me when it says dniuc!!! YOU ARENT CLOSE. ive explained 'close' is friends ive known for a year or so, which isnt exactly true actually... but i needed to tell him something that wouldnt hurt his feelings. after i clarified for the second time, he let up. but still. people are fucking annoying and its so FRUSTRATING that i love them because that makes shit so complicated.

then, family. ive been snowed in with my mom and sister for over a fucking week and I NEED OUT. i never thought id say this but I WANT TO BE AT SCHOOL. AWAY FROM HOME. my neighbors, who are more so aunt and uncle to me and my sister, let me go over and stay hours with them when i need it. but i dont feel like trecking thru the fking snow to get there. last night i stayed over and watched a favorite movie of mine with them and it was great, but having the energy to do that feels exhausting tonight.

im trying to distract myself with art, but its not working like it normally does. and its goddamn hard. tried videogames, youtube, but nothing is bringing me true relief. but i dont want to sleep either. ugh.

vent art, anger.

rating the seukijis on how well they would be as street vendors . 0 is wouldnt be able to convince a child 10 is would convince my grandpa

chanbang: 6/10 works for white people or similarly emotionally vulnerable tourists. can trick anyone that falls for a nice attitude and puppydog eyes. Alternatively hot guy who knows he is hot and would resort to sex appeal to interest women. Thankfully i am a lesbian and not so easily fooled. But those fooled are plenty

minho: 8/10 a mighty contender if bothered. usually cannot be bothered but then it's 7 pm and the stalls are abt to close and he needs to make cash rn right now right now his wife n kids (husband and the cats) depends on him. moved by sheer rage and a genuine belief that he can do anything. maybe he can.

changbin: 9/10 loud and unafraid to be embarrasing, borderline harrasses ppl into buying stuff, typical asian street vendor, also not afraid to physically grab someone and physically redirect them towards his stall, very angry sounding but an essy bargain

Hyunjin: 2/10 too self conscious and embarrasssed and limpdick to convince anyone to do anything. Poor guy.

Lix: 4.5/10 too earnest about it and unwilling to lie to make the sale, too concerned about the quality of the products hes seeking for someone running a bootleg streetwear shop. Does try convincing but doesnt want to come off as agressive. also very umable to be agressive. Does get some sales because hes an embarrasingly easy bargain.

Sung: 4 or 8/10 depending heavily on his mood, can be changbin style loud shopper or very very shy. Overall holds his own on a bargain tho. Tourist appeal as well.

Seungmin: 8.5/10 HARD to bargain with he is not getting off th3 game first. Gaslights you into thinking that not buying his product is a loss on your part. Good at manipulation and also runs his shop like the marines. Has manny return clients.

Jeongin: 6/10 ultimate grandma appeal, his shop is probably his familys and hes been working there after school every day since he was a kid, knows how this works, doesnt have to try very hard, is just copying what his dad and grandpa do for now but hell get the hang of it later. Furure 10/10

can you do a hurt/comfort or angst/fluff with reader x jonathan byers? preferably the reader comforting jonathan after maybe something to do with his father or will going missing or something? maybe like the reader reassuring him its okay and that they will be with him through all of it?

sad gal hours with this one :( hope you enjoy babes! sorry this took so long, my last post took it out of me lol.

p.s. im low-key in a dark mood so this might come out a little bit darker than i meant it too and im so so sorry

p.s. i had a whole lot written, more than what was below and then tumblr glitched and didn't save my draft so now it's shorter than what i meant it to be.

warnings: no age limit bc no smut, mentions of death, lots of sadness. ive been told that i have an unfortunate gift for making people very strongly feel the emotions of my characters, so this is your official warning that you may slip tears if ive done my job correctly today. also i generally don't proof read or edit so sorry for any spelling mistakes.

'.. THICK AND THIN..' jonathan byers x reader

It was a dreary, cold day in Hawkins Indiana. A large group of people clad in all black stood staring around a large, deep hole in the nearly frozen ground, a casket directly above it.

The Byers family were burying their youngest, a boy named Will, whom you had come to love deeply in your time of knowing him. He was like a little brother to you as well, you being a constant in their home as of late.

You stood next to Jonathan, your hand squeezing his tightly. You could feel how tense he was, you knew he was upset by his father's presence, he hadn't cared one damn bit when Will had first gone missing, so why did he even bother showing up now? Knowing Lonnie, and you knew the stories of course, it was probably because he wanted something, or was trying to take some kind of advantage of the distraught, heart broken Joyce.

You couldn't help but look around at all of the people who had showed up, the ones that actually did care about the boy and his family. You noticed Mike Wheeler just in front of you, tears falling from his eyes. You reached a hand over, squeezing his shoulder. You felt bad for the boys, you loved Will's friends, and it was clear how bad his bunch of goofball buddies missed him.

When the service was over, and everyone who came had finished saying their 'im sorry's' and had shaken Lonnie's hand, you and Lonnie managed to get Joyce and Jonathan to the car.

You didn't care for Lonnie, but you were thankful he was at least helpful in this situation. You say in the back with Jonathan has he drove, your hand gripping his tightly. You knew that he wanted to break down, but he wouldn't let himself because his mother was already a crumbling broken mess big enough for the two of them, you had told Jonathan that you didn't mind shouldering the job of picking up everyone's pieces, but he wouldnt let you do it by yourself.

Once you were back at the Byers house you helped Jonathan inside, laying your coat on his bed before sitting next him after shutting his bedroom door. You could hear the bathroom door close down the hall, and the shower kick on.

Jonathan was stiff, and he had a hard look on his face. You could tell that he was trying very hard not to cry. Not knowing what else to do, you take his face in your hands, moving so you're sitting on his lap.

"Hey, hey...it's okay to cry, Jonathan.." You say, giving him what you hoped was a reassuring enough look, you felt his hands on your thighs, squeezing so lightly you couldn't even tell they were there. You moved your hands down to your shoulders, pushing his jacket off of them and down his arms. "Come on, let's get you into something more comfortable."

You stood, moving off of his lap before going to his dresser, you pulled out a Tshirt and some pajama pants for him and moved back to him, he was still sat there unmoving. You give a gentle kiss to the corner of his mouth, running your hands through his hair before unbuttoning his shirt and sliding it off of his shoulders as well.

It took you a few minutes but after a while you had him dressed in a green tshirt and plaid pajama pants, you straightened up after putting his pants on for him and immediately he engulfs you in a hug, his arms wrapping around you to the point where you feel as if you're suffocating, but you don't tell him to let go, you wrap your arms just as tightly around him, letting your head rest against his chest.

His mouth his pressed to the top of your hair, and you feel his body shake as he lets out a sob, and then another one, and before you know it, you're collapsed on his floor in a heap, holding on to him as tightly as you can, trying to comfort him as best as you can as he shakes and sobs and snots all over you.

It lasts for a while, you sit there happily until he calms down, moving his head into your lap as you go to play with his hair. You gave him a soft smile, looking at him almost sadly, you hated that he was going through this, that his mom was probably just as bad. You wished that you knew how to comfort both of them, that you could go back in time and fix this entire situation.

"Thank you..for everything." You hear him sniffle, his voice soft and quiet, laced with sadness. "You don't have to be here, Y/N, you don't have to care like you do, but you do and you have no idea how grateful i am every day that you're here.."

You smile, leaning down to kiss his head before tapping his cheek gently. "Hey, I made you a promise, remember?" You say, giving him a look. "I may have made it when I was drunk off my ass, but i still meant what I said...you're stuck with me, through Thick and Thin, remember?"

Jonathan shifts, looking up at you, his mouth opening as if he's about to say something, but he stops, both of you turn your heads towards his bedroom door as you hear shouting, and you both get to your feet immediately, the sweet moment ruined.

hey! i don't mean to sound rude but i have a few questions ❤️ so i know you have a lot of dolls but i just wanted to ask how did you start your collection and why? are your dolls haunted? where are they from? how much were they? and do you buy them yourself or are they gifts? not that i want you to tell me your whole life story i'm just curious and have asked others similar questions! ❤️

hi lol, its ok. and idk how to answer any of this but i will try. already struggling w the first one, dont know how or why. i have always been used to my dad gifting me and my sister cars because he would rather get me, her and my brother the same gifts and always went with what was more boy-ish for whatever reason. always made us match clothes and everything, everything was almost the same, so it's crazy how we eventually did grow up to have different interests etc. mine became colelcting antique dolls because one day my dad just boguht a really big beautiful porcelain doll home (when i say big, not extremely big, just bigger than the others) for me. and he wanted /me/ to have it. part of. me believes he did it randomly but out of love, while the lther part of me believes he was guilty and upset when he saw how jealous i was seeing everyone have dolls that can literally sing. he never wanted to make me feel singled out in things or different from others, even though i was, and even though he was terrible in some doings- this was kind, and special. like a way to see i didnt need a singing stupid doll when i can have a very old antique one WITH the letter of authenticity.

growing up i noticed similar looking dolls in the charity shops i went to, they were expensive but also not cheap. i used to get bulloed really bad in highschool and college (yes, in college too lol), i had no friends and spent most of my days with my mum because my dad always worked. me and my mum always went to charity shops because the clothes and house stuff was just way cheaper. i dont want to say they let me buy what i want out of pity, but i know they were always trying to get me back on my feet again - thats the thing with asian, immigrant parents. never being able to tell you words of affirmations, but always somehow showing it in their actions. my mum knew i would look at a doll or two here and then, she always picked it up without asking or saying anything. brushing its hairs and putting it on my shelf for me and organising my books too. my mum bought me all the books sitting on my bookshelf rn.

if you want to start your own collection, i think you should start looking in charity shops or antique stores. a lot of old people, or family members of old people, dump their stuff there all the time. i have many memorable items from charity shops that aren't just dolls. they're worth a look. and dont worry about not getting an authenticity certificate - if you are bothered, you can always describe your doll online, however some antique sites (?) will ask you to pay in order for you to get info from them. so be careful. you can always ask straight from the person youre buying, if you look on places like depop or etsy, but who knows they might be lying lmao. i personally wouldnt care too much about it. i just am informative on it because my first doll came with it, i was hyper fixated on it for ages.

i hope this answered everything. i might delete this later if i decide to feel like i have over-shared on this platform.

3, 4, 6, 8 for reigen :3

oh heavens the freaker ... the jerkr

3. How did your oc discover themself? Did something cause them to question, or did they always know?

i rememebr i wrote this down somewhere but 2 me he realized he was queer of some sort when he went to one of his sisters friends quinceanera and made out w the birthday girls older cousin behind the venue ... this was when he was like , a highschooler in arizona still . after this he was liek Hmm i think somethings up . he didnt act on these feelings until he was hitchhiking to jess' apartment like years later tho ..... not much else 2 think abt besides how you might be gay for your friendon the open road and such .

with his gender i think he always kindve knew , early on his dad kindve picked up on it and went "heyy y. i dont mind if you ... experiment . with your gender . yoru still my kid all the same 😁" to rei who, at the time, went "? Ok (doesnt think about this encounter until years later)". its also a main reason (2 me ) as to why connor bullied him a bit - in my brain milwaukee is a pretty ... closed minded town , so its only natural people would spread their bigotry onto their children < which is why when connor saw how rei was like "im a MAN" but (in connors mind) didnt make any "real" effort into presenting masc , he 1 thought rei was just doing it for attention and 2 sought out to "fix" him ....... < cornering him and cutting his hair along w just. General torment

4. Is your oc's environment supportive about their identity? How does this impact them?

until he was around middleschool he only really had the support of his dad < his mother being a devout catholic whereas his dad was laid back and also queer himself . after he died and they moved back to arizona rei just kindve caved in on himself and gave up on any presentation gender or sexuality wise ... until one day he felt too suffocated by it all nd went back to the one place he ever really Did feel accepted < milwaukeeeeee 😁and by extension jess nd ashe . the latter i dont know if they met later but i think their presence helps rei greatly ... nervous cheetah and emotional support dog type thang . when hes back w the gang he feels pretty comfortable w them and while he still has his moments of doubt from time to time he still feels confident that theyll never judge him (which they wouldnt thankfully). ave maria

6. How does your oc feel about labels? Theirs, or in general?

he would rather be gutted like a fish than talk about labels ... i dont think he feels all that comfortable w himself to say hes for sure gay ... and as for being trans , he keeps that shit LOCKED UP !!! very stealth with it ... even if being called a woman bothers him hed rather just take it and smile than out himself and risk being harassed . as he gets older he just stops gaf. i think hed just call ashe up randomly one day nd go "Hey .im gay." and then just hang up . theyd understand

8. Have they had struggles with their identity, be it due to internal or external reasons?

hes the prime struggler and transgender allegory ... if hes not actively repressing his feelings for guys then hes trying as hard as he can to come off as a cis guy . i think it stems from the hostile environment milwaukee generally is as well as internal stuff < after his dads passing his mom blamed his homosexuality for it and deemed him a sinner ... her side of the family also just talked shit abt him a lot 😭this diswayed rei Greatly from ever being open . even in his 20s i think despite him being more cool w being gay nd stuff hed still be a little nervous ... i dont think his anxiousness abt it would ever go away for realsies , but with time he wouldnt think abt it too much 👍

AVE MARIA can youtell i want him dead

character building questions! prime numbers for the last oc you thought about!

oh shit THANK you omg omg

im thinking about my dnd/terrave oc hecla hespenhide...

2. she is so so reserved to call anyone her friend. maybe the only two ppl would be the soul-enfused automaton she made, erebus, and her teacher and headmaster arriana zolne-dragomir. even then, one of them she *made* and the other shes studied under for 30 years

3. mostly everybody. shes autistic and doesnt really have any reservations about acting weird around folks. if anything, shes more out of tune with her own emotions than other ppl are

5. hecla has only ever cried a handful of times and cannot do it on command

7. she really would only notice if you called out her full name. those closest to her could maybe get her attention with a "hesp"

11. a dead giveaway is that the real hecla wouldnt even bother trying to convince you shes the real one shdjfkh

13. she fakes a smile for crowds, when she has to. for Important People arriana introduces her to, for people who are interrupting her

17. what she notices in a mirror is fraying edges, broken clasps, loose threads. what others notice is that she looks so intensely tired, even when shes happy

19. she shuts them out. she could go for days without saying a word to them

23. her best friend, erebus, has almost no memories from when its soul was alive and walked the planes. but i dont think *she* knows she feels guilty about it. she wouldnt let on

29. incredulousness! this woman studied for 30 years at an academy that only requires 5-10

31. given that shes been stranded in a frigid wasteland for 5 years? she just survives it

37. hmmm.... shes worried she doesnt actually feel anything serious for anyone. shes worried shes just using everyone around her, without meaning to

41. shes picked up so many mannerisms from arriana that if she wasnt dwarven (and arriana elven) more ppl would assume their connection is familial

43. she doesnt understand ppl who havent Accomplished something. she was absolutely raised to be a workaholic

47. 👀... the first automaton she made. hes sitting in a closet in her study

53. arriana.

#that last question is........... foreboding #hecla hespenhide

|Nobody Gets Me| Lo'ak x Metkayina na'vi|

Recommended song: Nobody Gets Me by SZA

warnings: swearing

context: Y/N is getting harassed by fellow Metkayinas. Lo’ak tries to stick up for her.

You were always an outcast. A freak as many people called you. A couple years ago, your parents died-leaving you with nothing but yourself. A nice family took you in. Calling you their daughter. Another family lived near you, the Sully family. They also treated you like family, inviting you over for dinner, hunting, everything. They made you feel as if you were... "normal". Sitting in the sand drawing little doodles in the grains of the warm sand, people whispered behind you. Pointing and laughing. Your ears turned into the direction behind you. You paid no attention, still carrying on with your activity. "Hey, hey you" Still silent. "What is she deaf?" "Must be. Now she's a real freak" "Can you guys go away" You barely got it out. "Sorry can you speak up skxawng" You slowly raised up, trying to get away from them and the situation, but they circled around you. Pointing at your feet, hair, skin, everything. "Please stop!" You pushed them away from you. As one of your bullies fell to the ground, Lo'ak came from behind. "You heard her. Leave her alone" He stood in front of you. You rolled your eyes. You could defend yourself perfectly fine. "Oh, who is this Y/N? Your little boyfriend?" You stayed silent. "just go somewhere. Clearly she doesn't want you weirdos here" "Oh we're the weirdos?! Say that to the girl behind you" You came from behind Lo'ak, "First of all, I’m not weirdo in any shape or form, but at least I'm not a complete fucking asshole" The bullies were silent. The silence was broken by laughter. "So now you want to talk?" Your confidence was shut down real fast. "Do we have a problem over here?" Jake Sully came over. "No sir" One of the bullies spoke up first. "Alright, you can leave now" They walked away while giving you dirty looks. You stuck your middle finger up in response. "Were those guys bothering you Y/N?" "Yes, but it's alright. Lo'ak came for me" Jake shook his head as he left. You thanked Lo'ak as you sat back down on the sand. He sat down next to you. "You should stick up for yourself more" "I don't have to when you always come and save me" You smiled at him. "You're right. Why do so many people bully you?" "Lo'ak, you know why. People are weird like that. Just because I don 't have any parents I'm quote on quote a freak" He listened to you, "Well I don't think you're a freak" You showed him a light smile. "I know, but nobody gets me, you know?" "I do" "Lo'ak no you don't. I know we've been friends for a long time, but nobody will ever get me" "Well if you let me, I could get you" He held your hands. “Thanks” You kissed him on the cheek. “What was that for?” “For always being with me and around” He smiled. “You know Y/N, I’ve always really liked you and you never noticed my signals” He blurted. “Oh I’ve never noticed. I’m sorry. But I do like you” “Really?” “Yes of course. Who wouldnt like you?” “I don’t know” “Exactly” You put your forehead against his, “Oel ngati kameie” [i see you] “Oel ngati kameie, my Y/N” You smiled. “I’ve never seen you smile this much” “I guess it’s only when you’re around” You got up, with Lo’ak following you. You took his hand as you two walked back. A/N: short but sweet to get posting ;(

as i’m so glad to find your tumblr 😭 i’ll bother you a bit haha 🤣

the whole chapter vegas was so protective!! i love it so much 😭 the way he even positioned himself in front of pete so that he wouldn’t be targeted by the person who killed porsche’s uncle 🥹 i screamed. i like how he prioritise pete 🥹 i bet no one ever did this for pete before

but i wonder if it’s against his father what is he gonna do? he never had power against him 🤨 he went against him a few times for pete i feel like he could do that again 😍

they talked about love before, how vegas could love him if pete just gave in. pete kind of gave in? 😂 could we assume that vegas is in love with pete now?

i wonder when they will actually fuck like you know really fucking 🥹 i am sorry i’m not a horny person i swear but it was nice reading pete’s turmoil when he was getting fucked it was intense 😳😳😳😳 also vegas said something about that too? how he wants to fuck him again how he want pete to beg him? oh what if it’s vegas who begs 🤤

you’re genuinely nice person i can’t believe i didn’t figure out your tumblr 😭😭 thank you for writing this amazing fic i hope there will be lots of chapters 😭 (and yeah please let’s kill kinn or let him suffer in the mercy of pete’s hands)

hello hello!!! oh hahaha no not at all a bother i wouldnt have shared my tumblr if i didnt want people to come and talk to me!

omg honestly so true like the danger and his injuries had him literally operating on like basic instinct default mode: stay alive, keep pete alive and safe, trust no one. like bro legit did not have the room for anything more complicated than that right then which i mean fair he was not doing so crash hot when he came barging into pete's room. oh definitely pete has never experienced this before (like obvs his grandma has done it to some degree but probably not to the same kind of level in his adult years when he was no longer at home) and he may be in the protection of the main family by working for them (however little protection that might be with recent events) but that came at the cost of being a priority himself, by sacrificing that mentality of always putting the family first like the other bodyguards. pete has definitely forgotten what it feels like to be on the receiving end of that which was why he wasn't even really expecting anything when he called vegas' name. and why he was even more shocked when vegas dropped everything and answered the call like there was no other outcome in his mind.

oooooh very good question which i wont really spoil if i can but the way i interpret it is vegas never really had much of a reason to go against him like that before. to some extent he believes the shitty things that his father has always said about him and if he was ever going to fight back or run away it would be on someone else's behalf not his own. because he's grown so use to disassociating from his own body and pain. but since he's shielded macau as effectively as he can already and he doesnt face the same kind of scrutiny as a second son, vegas doesnt have a drive yet strong enough to overcome his loyalty to the minor family. So whilst he does recognise he doesn't have much power against his father he's never really felt justified in completely defying him like that, because to some extent (in his mind) what his father says is true.

basically the idea of vegas going up against his father is less about the thought that he'd do it because he knows pete wants to stop him and that he has to pick a side- and its more about how vegas has found something for himself that has the potential to be good, and he's willing to fight for it.

they have very sparingly discussed love- glossed over it more like- and yeah vegas is very trying to show his feelings through action. i take him as an acts of service/physical touch kind of love language person which was why it was so important that vegas went to pete when he was weak and helpless. like that was an act of trust that he rarely gives out to anyone.

omg lol personally i wouldnt say that pete has truly given in at all, he's simply recognised they have a mutual interest (seeking their pleasure in one another) and hes weighed the option of continually fighting his urges and making himself more miserable against following his desire to have the cake and eat it too. but as soon as that mutual interest starts to diverge in any way you can rest assured pete will not just be following along willingly. and when their unspoken agreement no longer suits him he definitely wont be playing nice just because vegas still wants to win him. i think we are definitely pretty close into the vegas' deepening affection for pete stage definitely like we are already seeing little choices here and there that are starting to set him apart from his father in more significant ways and from his supposed goal of overthrowing the main family.

they definitely will be!! unfortunately for them its now too deeply rooted in their ongoing dynamics and power struggle for pete to just jump into bed with him and go all the way without another thought. even if vegas desperately wants that and there are parts of pete that are steadily warming to the idea. theres still going to be lots of starts and stops before they figure out the boundaries (and of course some super unhinged behaviour from the both of them first which, like, naturally) but i do promise you they will get there!! their horniness can overpower anything lol. but i will say no more for the time being ;)

oh my god thank you honestly you are so sweet!! youre so welcome this has been a blast to write and such a fun and interesting challenge! omg the kill kinn vibe continues lol not sure ill go that far but a little suffering never hurt lol

#fic ask #ill fill the graveyards until i have you

As talk about nepotism takes over my phone… I saw a tiktok about whether fictional nepotism babies would admit to being nepo babies or claim to be self-made and wanted to do it with the lbaf gang:

Starting strong with Rafael Lightwood Bane: he would admit to being a nepo baby but wouldnt like it when other people call him that cause lets be fr… he is more than Malec’s son. Would he have become the consul if he wasn’t adopted by Malec? Probably not but that’s because the clave runs on nepotism and family name superiority shit and that doesn’t say anything about his capabilities.

Max Lightwood Bane: he would admit to it, agree and have a “what about it” attitude. He’s literally shadow world royalty and he owns it. It can come off as cocky but he’s not wrong and people LOVE to interpret what confident individuals REALLY mean.

Lexi Herondale: she definitely would play the nepo baby card to get out of trouble. And she knows she can’t deny it but she’d get annoyed if anyone claims she can’t “live up to her parents legacy” or whatever. I’m so gay.

Selena Herondale: she wouldn’t generally be bothered by being referred to as a nepo baby unless people try to undermine her and her experiences. She’s very unproblematic so she tries to avoid these kind of conversations but she still acknowledges it yk.

David Let-This-Boy-Have-a-Break: he’s very privileged and lucky and he acknowledges that. He isn’t iffy about it at all and is super grateful. He even sometimes feels guilty about his privileges. He successfully tries to make his own name though.

Georgia Lovelace: yes I know… technically she’s a nepo baby but she could’ve done it with out nepotism.

Abigail Lovelace: this girl gets to chew on grass AND eat Julian Blackthorn’s hair? I would say that’s cause of nepotism but Julian likes kids so further character development (age) is required as I am unable to provide an accurate conclusion with given information.

Honorary Mentions:

Chairman Meow: i believe his name speaks for itself.

Roman Penhallow: he knows he’s a nepo baby who has a lot of privileges and advantages and instead of owning it or arguing about it he constantly proves himself worthy of his position through his accomplishments.

Achilles Blackthorn: he’s very slay about it. Trespassing to faerie? It’s not about what you do for nepotism but what it can do for you.

What do you think?

This is my favorite post ever. 10/10 analysis.

I think all of them, in some way, would use their privilege to help those who aren't. They'd also help each other out 😎

PS - I'm obsessed with how much you like Abigail hehe.
