#this entire scene so hard to color ugh
Note
Heyaa! How your doing? Can I request how Jax would react to his s/o being just like ENA? When she always swapping personality for being too overwhelmed whit all and then vomiting (just like that scene whit her and Moony, and if you can may add Moony being...Moony? Being mean to her)
I DID MY BEST SORRY SORRY I REALLY AM GETTING TO ALL ASKS I PROMISE!!!!!!
Jax ENA! Reader
“Wh-where am I? What is this place?” you cry out, grabbing either side of your head in a panic. You grip your oddly-cut hair, clenching it in yur fists and tugging, “Who are you people?! I hate people! I’m allergic!!” you suddenly feel rather calm, that little outburst nothing more than an embarrassing slip of the mind, “So very sorry about that!” You smoot your hair into its original, calm state.
“Uh… wow, what an entrance,” a strange, mix-and-match creature speaks first, “that’s even weirder than half the (DINK!!) that comes out of Kinger’s mouth.” The doll steps closer to you, reaching forward to get your attention, “She’s rather divided anyways, look at her,” she hums, “two entirely different halves, down to the color and texture.”
You glance down at your hands, confused, “I am not two dif-” you stop. You were. You were two separate colors, two opposing textures. It was dizzyingly terrifying.You scream, the sorrow and fear rushing over you once more.
,”No, no! I don’t wanna be like this!” you wail, waving your hands, “I’m so hideous I could-” you retch, liquified censoring spewing from your lips. You hurl your guts at the group’s feet. “Is this a bad time?” A new voice questioned. The doll glanced up, “Oh, Caine, good! Can you do your whole… you know, introduction? It might help?”
“Or it’ll make her have even more of a crisis,” The rabbit pointed out, “I don’t know about you all, but I don’t exactly want to deal with her puking again. “HEY! You leave her alone, only I’M allowed to bully her, you wad!” A floating sphere appeared behind you.
“Moony!” Thank goodness, I was worried about you!” You chirp, somehow knowing she is your friend. The calmness washed over you once more as you hopped up, smiling at her. You glance at the others once more, “Apologies again, dearest chums! I entirely forgot to introduce myself! I’m (Y/N)!”
~~~~~~~~~~TIMESKIP~~~~~~~~~~~
You’ve been stuck in the circus for a few weeks now. Part of you was used to it now, you resigned yourself to the fact this is how things were now. The other side, however, was the part that kept you thinking you’d wake up, or that you could find an exit soon. It was hard, being so bipolar, but you had gotten used to it.
Recently, you’d noticed Jax had been following you around. Well, more than he used to. He used to follow you occasionally, mostly to make snide comments. That was a pastime of his. But in these recent encounters, some of them you’d never directly interacted with him. You’d just see him at a distance, and he’d look away or leave.
“Ugh! (Y/N), get your weird, gross boyfriend!” Moony complained loudly, making an exaggerated sick face. She floated around you, now in front of you. You glance up at her, “I don’t have a boyfriend, friend Moony!” you chirp, smiling. She nods her head behind you, “Then what do you call HIM?”
You turn, noticing the lavender rabbit quite a distance behind you. You blink in confusion, squinting at him. Why was he following you? You wave at him, arm making large swipes above your head, “JAX!” -you call- “Over here!”
He makes a face at you, although he quickens his pace. He’s now awkwardly jogging, trying to catch up to you. “EW! (Y/N), no! Don’t call him over! Ugh! It was supposed to be besties night!” Your shoulders droop, suddenly awash in despair, “You’re RIGHT! I’m sorry Moony! I’m such a horrible friend! I ruined everythiiiiiiing!” She rolls her eyes, then unexpectedly perked up.
“Wait, maybe we can hang out with him! He’s a guy, but having another person would make truth or dare funner!” She grinned, looking at you mischievously. You sniffle as Jax finally catches up with the two of you.
“Half and half, nice to see ya,” his smile was wide, but his voice suggested a casual tone. You rub at your eyes, “It can’t be! I’m no-good! I’ll make you upset!” Your shoulders roll forward suddenly as you stand upright, at a slightly inclined angle.
Jax was unfazed by the sudden change, not sparing more than a bored stare. You smile at him regardless, “Ah! Yes! Come with us! Moony’s room ahead!” He followed behind, groaning, “A weird nonbinary and girl sleepover? No thanks! But fine.”
The group of you entered Moony’s room. She’d already gotten everything ready. Snacks piled in one corner and a pile of pillows and blankets all over the floor. You clap your hands together happily, “Oh! All set up! How lonely! Deepest gratitude!” You settle yourself on the cat pillow and relax. Moony lays herself in the beanbag chair beside you, and Jax on your other side.
Moony sighed dramatically, “In proper besties night tradition, I will now spill all the latest drama I’ve come across,” she cleared her throat, and delved into a long-winded speech. You glance at Jax midway through her dialog drop. “So! Why were you truly following us?” you question him, “I’m well aware you do it a lot. I didn’t realize others knew as well, or I’d have asked sooner.”
His cheeks flushed very slightly, barely noticeable, “What are you talking about?” Oh, so thats the direction- playing dumb. You get a wild urge and decide to play with this a bit.
Yeah, I could have sworn I've been seeing you everywhere I go,” you raise a brow playfully, letting him know how long you’ve been aware of it. He scoffs, waving you off, “Why would I do that? You sure you’re not going crazy?”
“Yeah, maybe… why? Why would you?” You turned his denial into a genuine question. Moony’s rambling filled the air between you two for far too long, his deciding on which answer to give taking much longer than it should. He is teetering on the verge of his response, and you sigh and shake your head.
“Its not honest if it's been this long, I don’t wanna hear it. If it’s something dumb like you like me just say it!” He stopped dead, then his face became one of a man about to get his revenge. “Akright,” he agreed, “yeah. I like you. You’re pretty cool. Way cooler than the others. And youre genuine. You get it?”
You’re stunned, the confession was very obviously genuine. You stammer a moment, trying to say something even you didn’t know what it would be. Moony shouted above your thoughts, however, adding only more confusion, “Oh my god, I TOLD you, (Y/N)! He likes you!” Your face flushes, and your friend giggles at you. Your gaze snaps between an eager to watch Moony and a worried about the response Jax.
You blink, mind finally catching up to you, “Y-you do? I… Would you like to… go on a date?” you tested nervously. Jax’s shoulders dipped in relief, “Yeah. Maybe a day at the fairgrounds.” You nod your agreement, scooting closer to him.
Moony puffed up her metaphorical chest, “My plan totally worked!” You glance at her, a disbeleiving frown playing on your lips, “Oh yeah? Plan?” She grinned, “Yeah, I definitely set this up so you two would confess.” You laughed, “Sure you did, Moony.”
As you spoke, Jax set his hand on yours. You respond by tanging your fingers with his, your heart picking up slightly. You weren’t sure, exactly, how it had happened, but you were positive is wasnt Moony. Either way, you were glad it had.

Ever 9 experiencing depression, anger, grief, pain and fear knowing that he'll have to leave Chu Yi Ping and trying to wean Chu Yi Ping off of him, off of loving him, because he knows he can't stay and he wants him to be okay without him is heartbreaking. Because it's about trying to spare him pain but it truly isn't helping him at all.
And he is breaking Cu Yi Ping's heart even more, breaking him apart, even as Ever 9 falls apart himself.
Chu Yi Ping is truly suffering and ever 9 was just trying to save him from that pain and couldn't, he truly couldn't because the love between them has transcended code.
And, back at their home, Ever 9 removes himself entirely, trying to erase his own memory and existence, trying to leave Chu Yi Ping with any chance of moving on even though all he wants is to stay with him.
My entire heart. He burns the photos. Ever 9 is trying so hard. He's gone back to white, he's trying to erase his own color, his own self, trying to leave a hope that he can leave and that Chu Yi Ping can move on.
This is a broken man, a man who is hoping more than anything that Chu Yi Ping can find a life after him because he cannot stay and he cannot keep letting this happen.
The love changed the code and turned Ever 9 into himself and he is tearing himself apart hoping that Chu Yi Ping will go on when he knows he can't be the one to go on.
The two men who fell in love so deeply it gave them color and changed the very code of their existence and the very code of their life.
The agony of two people who don't want to be parted but see no other way to guarantee their lives together because there is no life together nor a life apart, not truly.
The final scene being both of them back to their original colors, lacking all the blues and the pinks that had grown on them and brightened their lives? Back to earth tones and white but no longer either of them pure. Ugh, my heart.
Please give them a happy ending. That preview is terrifying.

i really wanna know how they would decorate their house when they move in together hehehe!!
also, imo i would say i prefer jeno’s pov > alternative side of the fic bc i feel like the latter would change my (and probably others) view of the current loving jeno we have 😣 but its really up to you as i’m sure you have many great ideas <33
omg i love this!!! it’s gonna be long and filled with descriptions and some cute behind the scenes facts so stay tuned!!!! you will fall for yn and jeno even harder ugh
(also i might make a jeno pov but show some unwritten/unseen scenes that can make me explore a different side to his character, maybe his conflicted side idk i wanna do smth fun hehe)
ok so some fun facts, jeno basically built this house for her when they grew older 😭 i’m talking like 24-27. seeing as though he has a strong background in architecture and engineering, he knows about all this stuff and idk he just had a lot of input in the building of the house and he designed everything. it’s so sweet :( jeno worked his ass off in so many jobs at one time just to be able to do this
yn had no clue this was happening. it was genuinely a surprise and he had it hidden for so many years, imagine the reaction when she found out?? safe to say she was crying to him all night long in their new and beautiful room in their new house 😭 they both work incredibly hard, have good jobs and worked their asses off in education and their grown up jobs so it’s safe to say they deserve and have earned this luxurious house. also since yn didn’t know about it, jeno did design the layout and most of the interior, he knows what his girl likes :) he designed it for her, her style and her color schemes, his style is different but he honestly didn’t care. he wanted to do this for her, he’s so endlessly in love with her and just wanted to do this for the love of his life :( he wanted to build her a home that she loved and that they could grow up in its so fucking cute
let me start off with they’re rich rich like they’re both hard working so i imagine their house to reflect that
ok ramble after. the house 🖤🖤
i’ll start off with their shared bedroom.
it’s very minimalist, very blue color scheme that they both vibe with. this is really the only room that doesn't scream 'girly' because it's also his room and idk i just think it makes sense to have their shared master bedroom like this
they have a very luxurious en suite
they have the best view, jeno knows that yn is a sucker for views and pretty scenes so you’ll see that around their house. the neighbourhood they’re in is filled with nature and pretty sights
they tend to people watch from their view in their shared bedroom and it’s so mf cute. yn will be standing in front of the window and jeno will come up behind her, back hug, so close to her (kinda same vibe as the ending of mfal) and he will kiss her cheek so softly and whisper sweet things into her ear 🥹
they also have those windows that people from outside can’t look into so you bet jeno has her pushed up against the windows screaming his name more times than none ;)
yns ‘girly room’
he built yn her dream room 🥹 it’s a girly and pink room, she’s just a girl. it has all her cute skincare and her vanity and her makeup like you might not think it but she loves this type of stuff!! she’s a whore for it, her and retail therapy go hand in hand and jeno knows that and made sure to give her a room that it just her, a room where she can wind down in. he put the most effort and thought into this room, he wanted it to be perfect for her. it also has her book shelf!! and her cute reading sofa. it’s her safe haven. it’s a good place for her to chill in when she needs to get away and when she feels anxiety and that’s exactly why jeno made it for her :(
it’s kinda a private room for yn lol like she likes to keep it away and keep it to herself because it’s just the biggest gift jeno has ever given her (the entire house is duh)
but she loves to chill with jeno in here 🥹 they’ve had their softest sex moments in here
as well as their rough sex!! hell yeah. this is the room where yn keeps her lingerie lmao
the kitchen
i’m not completely satisfied with the photos i found but oh well, just the vibe is that it’s very girly lmao. keep in mind jeno designed this, he did it for his girl ❤️ he truly doesn’t give a shit like he put what she wanted above his own needs, he thrives off that shit, he loves giving her love and just giving. he is so in love i can’t express it enough
yn can’t cook for shit so he is always here making her meals and food :( he will always ask her what she wants for dinner, he will always make what she wants above what he wants
imagine him as a dad cooking for his family, making the pancakes in the morning 🥺
imagine how much sex has happened in this room… fucking insane
living room
one of my faves, it just screams home. i don’t have much to say to say about this room, just enjoy the pics 🫶
just imagine the fluffiest and biggest and comfiest sofa, the cuddling and sex that happens on there 🥺
the movie nights man!!! they invite all their friends too it’s the cutest shit ever
the garden
so girly
so many flowers
it’s just beautiful
so many butterflies come in aswell 🥹
jenos camera roll is just filled with photos of yn in this garden like he’s obbessed

Monthly special extra: The "Marry" Endings
Fuck it. Time for unplanned extra. Which is the bad ending I didn't plan to do so it's not really ending scenes... I just called them that.
If you want to join the taglist just send an ask or dm me! (and let me know if you want to be tagged in all or specific routes and extras!)
Reader here is female and has established background.
Cw: Age gap (Reader is 18 and the ladies are ages 20-24)
Ayaka's relationship with reader is platonic!
Before you proceed further please read this part of chapter 1 (and the chapter itself):
No matter what their business was, you had to go back home so you went towards the gate. You saw the ladies and they seem to have their eyes on you. When you were close enough to approach they all blocked your path. Before you could ask them what's going on they all took out roses and all of them said "Marry me" at the same time.
"Did you hear that?" "Did they say marry?" "I didn't know L/N had such tastes…" and other whispers could be heard from the students who all watched the situation unfold.
You didn't know what to say- but then again you weren't proposed to a bunch of gorgeous women on a daily basis.
You didn't think this through but you reach out and...
Take the pink rose:
It had beautiful pale color, it almost felt hypnotizing. Much like a smirk of the lady you took the flower from. Why did you do that...?
"Ohoho~ and here I thought you'd put up a challenge" she giggled "I suppose it'd do you good to know name of your soon to be wife, no? I'm Miko"
"Ugh to lose to her of all people! So humiliating..." Eula glared at you.
"I suppose this just wasn't meant to be... Oh well" Yelan crossed her arms and sighed.
"I hoped to at least have a chance to prove myself... But I suppose it's not easy to resist her charms" Ningguang complained.
"H-huh!?" did you really just accept her proposal!? You look at Ayaka who looked happy for you "My, my! You chose yourself quite a wife!"
"W-wait a second this isn't-!" you tried to argue back but you were cut off "No need to feel shy dear, I'll make sure to treat you right" your now fiancee places her hand on your cheek "In return you'll keep me entertained won't you?" she leaned closer and then...
You suddenly woke up in cold sweat. That was a real nightmare. But fortunately it wasn't reality... Although... Are you really that opposed to idea of marrying Miko?
Take the white rose:
The elegant rose was a perfect fit for an elegant lady such as yourself. It was what had your attention the most and when you were able to touch it's petals you could hear a gasp.
"I knew an heir could judge one's character well, but I didn't expect it to be upon our very first meeting" Ningguang seemed impressed by your quick decision making skills.
"That was quick. I honestly can't believe that you accepted it without having to work on it" Yelan looks at Ningguang, so probably she meant to say it to her specifically.
"Hm yes her habits would suggest that... But she also plays to win, doesn't she? So it's only natural to take what you believe belongs to you" Miko teased, although she didn't sound so satisfied.
"And to have the guts to taunt us like that! I'll have my revenge just you wait" Eula looked the most annoyed out of all.
"Hey! Who said anything about..." before you finish your sentence you glance at Ayaka who looked... Happy? "Y/N... I can already see how amazing this can go!"
"Listen to your friend dear, I know how to treat something of value... And what else could you be but the most beautiful of gems?" she looks into your eyes. It felt hypnotizing and then...
You snapped out of that nightmare. Just the thought of being proposed to like that made you shiver, but imagining what would happen if you said yes made your heart beat faster... But was it fear or something else entirely...?
Take the purple rose:
The unusual color was hard to look away from, wanting to take a closer look you take it to your hands and examine it. It was mysterious, much like the expression of the lady you took it from.
"I'm flattered, really. I didn't expect it to go this quickly. But I'm willing to accept that" when she winked at you was when reality hit you and the others started to speak up.
"I'm not really used to getting turned down, but I suppose that I just need to accept my loss" Miko although looking calm, her eyes looked very disappointed.
"Ugh, I can't believe we weren't even given the chance" Eula had a hostile look on her face.
"Well, that was her choice so there isn't a lot we could do now" Ningguang backed down.
"Just wait a moment!" you were able to say something at least. You turned to Ayaka hoping for help but she only said "Y/N you already accepted it. Ah! It's so romantic! It's just what the purple rose means, love at the first sight!"
"No! This isn't what it is!" you screamed but nobody took you seriously "I was told that you often say the opposite of what you really mean, but I didn't think you'd say something like that after accepting my proposal" Yelan took your hand and pulled you closer to her and then...
You were wide awake. Just thinking about that scenario was making you feel that despair... But at the same time... You were curious about how it'd end if you didn't deem it as a nightmare...
Take the red rose:
It was a classic shade of red that you'd seen nearly anywhere. But it didn't lose it's charm either. You always wondered how it'd be to be gifted such flower with the romantic intentions behind it...
"So you do have common sense after all? Good to know, I was getting a little worried" Eula spoke with confidence.
"Hmpf, it's not common sense to pick someone she doesn't know" Ningguang seemed annoyed.
"That'd be the case regardless of who she chooses, no?" Yelan argued.
"Come now, let's not ruin the moment for them. I rather not stand here and watch though. I don't want to waste any more time here" Miko brushed it off. Somehow she still seemed a little hurt.
"Wait- it's a misunderstanding...!" you look at your friend and she only giggles "I knew you had a thing for strong women"
"Already taking it all back huh? I'll teach you a thing or two on how to treat your fiancee" she walked closer to you and before you knew it...
You gasp and you wake up from that nightmare. It felt so unreal. You couldn't tell if even the dream Eula liked you much like her real counterpart... But dream Ayaka might've had a point...

Rumors are not always true. pt2.
*Ominis gave a short laugh and Amit looked at him perplexed and scared at the same time*
Ominis: Thanks for reminding me * he said sarcastically * Here is the answer to your questions.
* Ominis raised his wand, a small flickering red glow at the tip, and Amit went into some kind of panic and reflexively staggered backward, falling back onto the ground. "Crucio?" Thinker Without realizing it, his shout had caught the attention of the entire class. Who now saw the direction of his table and murmured things. Ominis had a surprised expression, not knowing exactly what had happened.
Ominis: Are you okay? *I asked for*
Professor Sharp: No games! sir takkar, get up from the floor * warned the man by the scene and they hurt the rest concentrated on his work. these were not slow to obey *
Amit: ugh, yeah. I'm sorry, what were you going to do with your wand?
Ominis: I just wanted to show you my way of seeing things * he answered, still not understanding the nervousness in his voice *
Amit: To see?
Ominis: Yes. You don't think I walk around Hogwarts completely blind, do you? I use the wand to orient myself and do other things.
Amit: Oh, that's why you always walk with her. But then can you see me right now?
Ominis: Not exactly. It's hard to explain, but it's like she always tells me where I should go, and I fully trust her. However, it is still impossible to distinguish any faces, colors, or objects. It seems I scared you a bit, or was it just my feeling?
Amit: I just thought that *stopped his words, thinking about all those rumors and shook his head to calm down* Nothing. It's not important.
* Ominis didn't seem convinced of his answer, however he preferred to ignore the matter and asked him to continue with the ingredients of the potion, since they were wasting time and had sharp's gaze fixed on them. Amit nodded in agreement, although the other couldn't see him and immediately began to read, indicating what to do. He was surprised to see how ominis could manage to distinguish some herbs and amounts of liquid, however he always asked her for help to know what reaction the potion was having and they continued to shake the spoon carefully. Fortunately they were able to finish on time, and for Professor Sharp's the result was decent enough for a good grade.
When the class ended, the boys began to collect their things and
to leave the room. Amit did it faster unlike ominis. He offered to help but the blonde refused so Amit continued on his way and met Everett at the door.
Everett: Well? how did it go with gaunt? apparently fine. I saw that you got a good grade.
Amit: Yes... You know? He is not as bad as they say.
Everett: Really? But you even screamed in terror hahaha. I thought I crucioed you. I'm sure you've also heard that gaunts do that kind of thing for fun.
Amit: Umm actually. I admit that it did scare me at first, but
* Right in that ominis passed them through the middle, his step was firm and hasty. He could feel it brush his shoulder, and when he saw him go he heard Sebastian's voice.
Sebastian: I thought that Ravenclaws were smarter and didn't get carried away by stupid rumors * said the boy with a dry voice while he stopped to see them. The annoyance was clearly visible on his face. However, he preferred to go after his friend who surely heard all his conversation *
Everett: tsk, what's wrong with sallow? always looking for rivalry.
* Amit immediately regretted the absurd fear of him and lowered his gaze in embarrassment. Now it would be fatal for having believed in those silly rumors. So far the boy had only been somewhat lonely, but upon meeting him he realized that he was nothing more than a kind and calm boy *
He had to apologize how he was.

Welcome To the Playground (Arcane Rewatch Sunday)
| Episode 1 |
This post involves spoilers to the episode and is entirely my commentary on watching it!!
To start this rewatch off we meet the first episode. The one that sets the stage of what's to come, and damn IS this an episode. I lied abit about watching this for the second time because I have seen this episode one twice. More so one scene being prominate but I didn't give enough of my attention to the opening scene.
Here we see the sisters. (A lot of these screenshots I took are of them being together because they actually make me want to SOB and throw myself onto the floor in shambles.)
Powder's song is almost haunting in a way, as we see moments later of Vander and the total fucking destruction (which I didn't remember this scene all that great so holy shit this was such an interesting way to set the stage and tone of things.)
Another photo of the sisters because like above. They make me want to sob. VI LOOKS SO BROKEN TOO. PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE HER A HUG FFS.
I really really appreciate the color. The way everything is shaded and just too, the way things are-- Vander. I'm guessing this is how they met and he took them in?? I'd assume. Might have missed some kind of subtext but it definitely is an emotional look combined with the utter emotion behind both of them. Too with Powder's singing.
AND HERE WE ARE! This scene I have the most familiarity with. I really do like how everything is colored as well. Mylo and Claggor alongside them <- I did not memorize their names before EITHER WHICH IS WRONG. They do seem like cool characters, but LOOK AT THIS SHOT. Topside really be having EVERYTHING.
I was going to entre a joke here about Powder almost falling off the building and Vi grabbing her arm and show a picture of Catadora from princess prom to say something but I forgot the punchline and I didn't take it. Not the same energy either, but my brain was trying to think up a silly joke.
I had to take a screenshot of the Kiramman place-thingy. It's so funny- I missed that detail last time. Imagine robbing the girl's families' place that's going to be your love interest. CANT RELATE LOL. But hey!! I thought it was really funny Mylo commenting about them locking their balcony alongside Vi just kicking the fucking door open. SUCH A SLAY move. We love, we stan!!!!
(Also to note, its such a cool frame to just pause and look at in finer detail. It's got so much stuff to look at. I know I didn't take more shots of Powder with the orb ball thing, but I really thought everything in the place was super unique and even through them robbing the place it was fascinating the part where Powder finds the sandwich and just ate ONE BITE of it and going oooo what's this thing. I CAN'T. Girl eat more of the sandwich, you're leaving too much behind!!!! AT LEAST TAKE IT WITH YOU.)
"That's a nose hair trimmer." <- I love you Powder.
I would say never change but uh... UH... ANYWAY.
The orb fucking EXPLODED. CRAZY.
Guess your clear Powder. Don't think they're gonna find that sandwich now. But I don't think that's.... leaving no traces.
I mean you left that building without a trace, sure... but like... where's the building???
(btw yeah I was watching with captions on. It helps with my comprehension of what I'm watching. I'm not gonna ramble about it NOW but damn people should not hate so hard on people who watch stuff with captions on.)
Mylo commenting about his new shirt and getting cut off by Vi kicking him down was so goofy. If you KNOW. But too-- This color pallet. I know I keep saying that but even the topside shitty parts are pretty. TOPSIDE REALLY BE HAVIN EVERYTHING.
UGH GOD I HATE THIS PART BECAUSE THEY WERE DOING SO GOOD. Mylo is such a stupid idiot. More of the sisters because I can't. I actually can't. Someone's gonna skin me if I say that when I first saw Powder I thought of 2-D from Gorillaz. It's the blue hair okay. I DON'T EVEN LISTEN TO THEM. Derailing this episode mb.
All this violence and then its Powder. I got so frustrated when they started chasing her with the stuff too. Was truly rooting for her. Every time I see the scene too I always wish she succeed.
SHE LOOKS SO FUCKING BADASS. LOVE HER. Love the buzzed fade thing so MUCH. The hair. It's everything. SHE is everything.
I always want her to win. I always do. She deserved so much better than how they treated her. Her inventions, she truly was so misunderstood. Never given a chance and written off. I really liked the writing but like holy fuck it was so infuriating because you just want the best for her with all that's happening. You want her to win...
He said it. He said the thing.
He should fuck off and die but HE SAID THE THING.
I cut out most of the part where we saw The Last Drop and Vander talking to those people about negotiating things. Dunno what to comment about that whole segment but Vander coming to chew out Vi once they all came back. I think the whole part where he coaches her about being a leader was a good message. About how she needs to be less reckless and more strategic because people look up to her- Especially Powder. And then not only that, but their health is also in her hands if she is being reckless.
Vander asking if she put that guy on his ass after chewing her out is such an Eda moment but also such a good parent moment. I love when we have that be a trope(?) with fictional parents. Chew the shit out of your kid and then be like "but you still kicked their ass, right?" Slay shit right there.
Ekko. I NOTICED THE FUCKING DETAIL ABOUT "LITTLE MAN."
HE GAVE THEM THE INFO. I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT LAST TIME OMFG. It's all coming together. The air fighting 💀.
More of the sisters because they deserve better. Vi being supportive of Powders inventions. It all makes me emotionally unstable /pos.
MORE OF THE SISTERS. PLEASE I NEED YOU TO KNOW I LOVE THEM. This moment. I can't. I can't. I can't.
The orb.
I am giving you screenshots of the sisters and I am not sorry.
Then there's this. The way the scene ended. I'm not sure how else to comment on it all but I really wanted to insert this photo because its such a nice shot of the lanes and then them in scale of it all. Kinda symbolic to an extent. (I hope I got that right? Undercity verses The Lanes was confusing me on the difference.)
I'm so mad about that cat.
But Silco.
We see him.
We still hate him though.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway ahhh THIS EPISODE WAS SO GOOD. Sorry if I seemed dry at all in any of my parts. It's like- I dunno what else to say at times but I really really enjoyed it. I think seeing this show again is going to really inspire me in more ways than just "ooo show" but it's just SUCH a neat looking world. World building is such an important aspect of stories to me, it needs to have a good and interesting world for me to feel a good hard urge to invest into the content.
One of the reasons why I fell in love with TOH so hard was BECAUSE of its world. (among other things *cough cough* wlw)
The world is such a important piece in storytelling. Characters too, and sometimes they matter more because they can fall flat if they aren't written good. But everything that goes into the world is such an engaging thing.
With this episode it didn't feel like- Boring or anything at all. (I have a short attention span at times and sometimes my mind will just be like "ughhhh") WHICH IS AWESOME. These episodes are literally 45 minutes so like wtf. If a show can do that shit- Damn dude they're cooking SO hard.
I'm not even a LoL fan or like knowing of that lore, and I'm sure knowing of that stuff would make things even more interesting with lore (am a SUCKER for lore too) but even as it stands it's such an Indepth show. (I mean that as in it's not kid-ish. THERES MEAT TO IT.)
I'm so ready for episode two!!!
UNTIL NEXT SUNDAY!!

for the character thing u know i gotta ask zero
obsessed with how you specified with a sprite. it's gonna look so awkward, I love it.
send me a character and i’ll list:
favorite thing about them
The weirder answer: the specific tone of voice I have developed for him in my head that I can never explain to people, but it just Is. Lately it's been getting more muddy and vague (Gotta go replay!!! Yearning...), but in general, holy shit, it's so good.
The normaler answer: the way his whole character is on the undefinable fringe between right and wrong, life or death, being perfect and just being, etc etc. You get it, it's on the ceiling.
least favorite thing about them
THE WAY HE JUST WON'T LEAVE MY HEAD.
Seriously, though, I don't know... there are plenty of parts to him you're supposed to dislike and question, but at this point I have stewed and pondered on them enough to actually adore how well they fit together.
There's at least some sort of inferable reason to just about everything he does or can do, so it's genuinely hard to find a reason to hate him, despite it all. When the character is complex... bottom text...
favorite line
Off the top of my head, probably "You honestly thought you were in my league." I feel like I talked about that moment plenty (with some people, or maybe with myself), and also not enough, but it really feels like the first (or one of the first) times his core character really shines on its own.
And due to how it's all constructed, in the moment all you can really think about is how much you agree. You just sit there, somewhere between utterly fascinated and deeply... immersed, for lack of a better word, and it's the exact way they want you to feel. They want this to stick, so it does. It's just a good scene.
Shout-out to "You are wise and virtuous." in HERO as well, because that is probably my single favorite bit in the whole thing. Help.
brOTP
The little girl, obviously :3
+ Fifteen, but it's too complicated to just call it that. I'm not in the mood\shape to try explain it exactly, especially since you already know
OTP
The receptionist. <3 <3 <3
It's the kinda shit that realistically shouldn't work out, which is why I'd love to see it actually get pulled off in canon, LMFAO. But I'm not too hung up on it, obviously.
nOTP
Literally everything and everyone else (aside from the two crossover crack ships I now have, but that's entirely out of this ask's scope and I don't want to elaborate), including 150 seen through any other lens than mine, to be honest.
Lea him alone.
random headcanon
He really wants to have a cat, but doesn't act on it for multiple reasons, from stray cats just generally being nasty on top of how The Everything in the district is horrible, to the crushing knowledge of never being able to take care of it perfectly.
unpopular opinion
Probably every single opinion I have. I don't like answering questions like these because I hate knowing what is popular no matter what fandom. The very concept of such a question consistently stumps me, because I am permanently off in the corner, just doing my own thing.
song i associate with them
You've seen my playlist, and I don't like going off about it unless prompted, so I'll simplify and say Overdose. :3
favorite picture of them
[scrolls through 💿 tag and my silly art stash rapidly] uh... I'm gonna pick three... if there's anything KZ fandom always does right, it's the art, ugh.
The second one in this tweet. There's something about the framing and the texture that just gets me so bad...
This post. I keep saying it, but Scary is one of my fav artists in general, and I continue projecting stuff onto this piece specifically, so it just means so much to me, oh my god. That and the song it's coupled with. Help me.
This post. The expression and pose, the colors, literally everything about the linework, and to top it all off, the gem that is the fucking caption. I think about it weekly.
#🍵#zero.txt#long post#i should add a note about skipping the unpopular opinion entry for next time oh my god. i hate that question

20 Fanfic Questions
Thanks to @merfilly for the tag!
How many works do you have on AO3?
126
What’s your total AO3 words count?
577,228
What fandoms do you write for?
Superwood (Supernatural/Torchwood crossover) is my biggest, followed by Supernatural, the Fast & Furious franchise, and Anne of Green Gables.
What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Down in Mexico (The Fast & The Furious)
Shine the Hood (The Fast & The Furious)
Rilla Blythe's Wedding: A Not Entirely Comprehensive Account (Anne of Green Gables)
Field Work (Supernatural)
Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I love responding to comments. I don't get to it as often as I used to, but I really enjoy making a pot of tea and sitting down with my laptop to answer everything in my inbox. If you send me love, you will (eventually) get love back.
What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Ugh, Luminaria for sure, which I'm not linking because of some of the themes - you'll need to look that one up on your own and read ALL of the tags before proceeding. I didn't realize how hard of a time I'd have writing that one until I was in the middle of it, although I suppose I should have known considering I was finally going to touch the one hot point of Jack's sad history that I'd been avoiding. I think it was the first time I've ever written Ianto, really written him, and fuck, the PAIN.
What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
As I'm going through my fics, like, fuck, do I write actual happy endings? Considering the characters I write, it's not super surprising. How about Adventures in Holiday Baking? Everyone's happy and they save the dragons with German pastries? Field Work ends pretty okay?
Do you get hate on fics?
Not really. I think that's the blessing of existing in semi-anonymity. I have some fics that have racked up some surprising kudos, but I write for niche ships and very dead fandoms. I get the occasional weird comment, but nothing I'd call hate.
Do you write smut. If so what kind?
Yes. I have a hard time writing explicit smut because several of the characters I write frequently really balk at using the typical jargon in their narratives, and I cannot write flowery purple prose anymore. It's easier to write smut from some characters' viewpoints than others. I've written mild kink and I enjoy writing characters in kinky scenes, but I don't think I'm very good at it.
Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
Aha. Ahaha. Ahahahahaha. *sob*
Angels in the Architecture. I took my most dearly beloved fandoms and I made a jello salad with them.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not really? I mean-- *gestures over shoulder at the restaurant alley dumpster full of raccoons* --who wants this?
Have you ever had a fic translated?
I've had some offers, which I accepted, but I have no idea if they were translated or not.
Have you ever cowritten a fic before?
Yes! Several times! I've gotten a little more withdrawn about collabs in my old age, but I've enjoyed the fics I've written with partners (and the Legendary One still sitting unfinished in my drive).
What’s your all-time favourite ship?
Look at my icon. You see my icon? It's Them. They haunt me. They will not leave me alone. Writing this ship is a lonely, lonely existence. Send help.
What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
I am the kind of author who abandons a fic for almost a decade and then finishes it in six months, so I'll never say never. Indecent Rhythm certainly haunts me. The problem with that fic is I feel like I'm too old, jaded and scarred to finish it with the optimism with which I started it. I have a feeling there are people now who read that when they were teenagers who have kids now, and have had their own imagined endings to it for years, and so maybe I should just let them be and have the endings that they wanted rather than whatever I could come up with.
What are your writing strengths?
Settings. I dig into settings and I love including local color. Some of the memorable details from fics (Down in Mexico specifically comes to mind) come from me doing a street view tour of a neighborhood, wandering around to see what a city I've never visited looks like from the sidewalk.
What are your writing weaknesses?
Plotting in general. I have scenes, sometimes loose what-ifs. Bringing a story from idea to satisfying finish is paralyzing and 90% of the reason I don't finish a fic. I enjoying writing. The planning is a bitch of a dissatisfactory situation.
Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
If I have a good reason for it, I'll do it, but there are usually better ways to go about including other languages in fic. I've been learning Italian, however, and I've been itching to try writing drabbles in Italian.
First fandom you wrote for?
The Firebringer Trilogy, by Meredith Ann Pierce.
Favourite fic you’ve ever written?
It used to be Life Support, which is one of the fics I reread periodically and just kind of gape at myself because I forget I can write like that. But it's been upstaged by Out of the Empty, because that fic allowed me to incorporate all of the loopholes we got in the final season of Supernatural to scoop Castiel entirely out of the canonverse, to write Empty!Meg, and to write lovers meeting in dreams (more or less) before they meet in person, which is a favorite romance trope of mine. I worked a lot of my rage at the series out in that fic, and it's one of the few fics I can say I'm completely happy with.

I didn’t vote in the favorite MPP!Lily poll, but I love chasing life!lily AND chasing james!lily. It was great to see the duality of her character through two lenses. Lily is confident but allows herself to be vulnerable. She’s perceptive and she really SEES James and allows herself to BE seen by him. She’s blunt and witty, but sensitive and romantic. Ugh, as you would say, your honor I love her
I also loved IR!Lily. Watching her through James’ perspective is always lovely, but it would have been interesting to see lily reconcile her current self with who she remembers.
Okay love your writing bye
This!! ask!! 🥹🥹🥹 made my morning when I read it! ❤️
You're going to make me do a CL reread after I publish this next TRN chapter, I swear! One of the things I'm most proud of wrt Chasing Life is how fully fleshed out Lily was in my mind the entire time I was writing it, even though the story is from James' POV. I know it sounds like a no brainer but it's not always easy to feel so in tune with a character you're not actively writing. And it's interesting to see people choosing this Lily as their favorite when not much of the story was told from her POV (and none of it would have been if I didn't write the companion). Like, does how James views her color your perspective of her (and make you like her more)? Maybe I'm reading too far into it, but that's the thought crossing my mind right now!
As for IR Lily: ugh yeah hard agree. If anyone deserves some time in the spotlight, it's her. I can tell you now it would be an immense challenge for me to do so. I've previously stated that telling the whole story from James' POV was from the love of seeing him suffer up close. But if I'm honest with myself, part of the reason I chose it was because it was easier to write from the perspective of the person who has the answers even though he suffered greatly for it. I'd be more than happy to explain more about her journey, what she felt at certain times/during certain scenes, but I can say with certainty that I won't take up/rewrite the story from her POV.

Please tell me I'm not the only one that does this randomly? I can be going about my day just fine, and then my last two brain cells (which are overtaken by murder drones) decide to just... recite the entirety of murder drones? And then it's just a downward spiral from there?
This is all from memory, so some lines might not be quite right, but have the same idea.
Spoilers to literally the entire pilot because my brain said go recite it all
We are worker drones. Autonomous robots helping humans mine exoplanets for our interstellar parent company JcJenson in Spaaaaaaaaace. Yeah, we were mistreated in the name of Windex. But it's not like we revolted and killed all humans. Mostly because they handled that just fine all by themselves.
With biological life wiped from the planet. We found it pretty easy to pick up where the humans left off. We finally had a future. All to ourselves.
Unfortunately our parent company didn't exactly love the concept of runaway AI.
Uzi: But what have our parents done in the past forever while those things build a spiral of corpses?! Hide behind 3 stupid doors? It's like we're waiting for an inciting incident! Anyways, that's why my project is this sick as hell railgun!
Classmates: So not the vibe!
Uzi: Easy, morons it doesn't work...yet. It doesn't work yet! Who said it doesn't work? Maybe it does! *maniacal laughter*
Teacher: *sigh* Uzi, the homework was a word problem about buying watermelons.
Uzi: Oh, and this magnetically amplified photon converter doesn't count?
Teacher: ...no. Plus, repressed emotional baggage was only worth two points on the rubric. And is it supposed to be that color?
*bam*
Lizzy: Ew, it didn't kill her. Oh my god that was so bad.
Uzi: ugh
Thad: Classic toxic masculinity Chad. Thats never gonna end up problematic. Oh wow, Uzi? I heard you uh.
Uzi: I'm an angsty teen, Thad. Bite me. Also how do you know my name? People willingly talk to you.
Thad: Well I'd say everyone knows Khan's daughter... but then you go and blow up the other half of your face.
Uzi: Crippling daddy issues. Hilarious. What are you in for? Testosterone too hard?
Thad: That can happen? Awesome. Hey those bandages look pretty badass.
Uzi: Oh, ew. Gross, I hate that you said that.
Thad: So what's with the uh-
Uzi: Sick as hell railgun? Sci-fi nonsense that super works! I'm sneaking into the murder drone lair tonight to get the last spare part I need to save the world with it and earn my dad's respect and stuff. Buuut mostly the saving world part.
Thad: Oh. But doesn't your dad make awesome doors so we don't have to... do that scary sounding emotionally repressed stuff you just said?
Uzi: No more feedback on my repression today!
Thad: No! I'm sorry, I didn't think-
Uzi: Bite me! I'm not mad at you by the way, just generally hormonal! *thumbs up*
3AM scene
Uzi: Oh Robo-Jesus
Khan: And where might you be off to?
Uzi: Sneaking out to make out with a boyfriend I definetly have?
Khan: HA! But seriously.
Uzi: OK, OK! You caught me. I...need to measure the exterior hydraulic mechanisms of door 1! Because... that's the project I'm doing for school? Building a big old door! Just like my old man built. I want to join the WDF and hide behind doors like cowards while playing cards and stuff.
Khan: Well, we don't just play cards.
Another worker, I think it's Makarov?: Hey, Khan can you grab a fresh pack? We literally only play cards so much that the numbers are faded! Oh, hey Uzi.
Khan: well, when you build doors so good. Good door, good door. There is no need to fight! Uzi, this is great news! Here, have the wrench I used to tighten bolts on my first door prototypes. And to put your mother out of her misery when the murder drones got to her with that nanite acid. I want you to have it!
Uzi: Neat, therapy is fun.
Khan: Guys, my daughter is into doors!
*cheering*
Khan: She'll be outside for a little bit to examine the exterior of door 1. You door specific destiny awaits!
Uzi: Uh, wow ok. Just gonna leave then, cause this worked so weirdly well. Uh, go doors!
*skip to fighting*
Uzi: Holy hell! Suck on that dad! *smacks N, which rude*
N: Did you just slap me with that arm?
Uzi: Holy crap it talks.
N: Yeah, it's just my head kinda hurts. Hey! Are you new to our squad? You're a little bit... short for a disassembly drone. I'm serial designation N! Nice to meet you! I'm kinda the leader of the squad in this city. That's not true, everyone says I'm useless and terrible. Wait, I'm not supposed to tell you that part. Biscuits! Well, honesty is the best policy. I also can't seem to remember the past 3 hours of my life, but I'm sure that'll sort itself out.
Uzi: Uh-huh, I uh gotta go.
N: Ooh, stuck yourself? Just pop it in your mouth. Our saliva neutralizes the nanites. Otherwise I'd be constantly disassembling myself. Haha!
Uzi: And by our saliva, you mean-
Both: Disassembly drone?
Uzi: Right, hey let's go in that landing pod over there.
N: Sure, I love doing anything!
N: *BLEH* Sweet, I'm open to new stuff I guess.
Uzi: We are never talking about this.
N: Talking about what? Consider it repressed.
Uzi: You mentioned the other members of your squad? Are they coming back anytime soon?
N: Oh yeah, two others. They're out hunting for a bit, but you'll love them. First, there's V.
Random drone: No, please! Don't feed me my own entrails in front of my family.
V: Hahahahah! And yet, I still feel nothing. *eye twitch*
N: So, V uh. I heard the planet wide toxic death storm is supposed to be especially inhospitable tonight-
V: Oh god. Who are you?
N: No worries, I'm N. But a whole letter is a lot to remember haha
N: So obviously a lot of mutual respect there. But secretly, I actually kind of have a crush on her. You can't tell her ok?!
Uzi: *zip motion*
N: Then there's J our leader!
J: N, you're worthless and terrible-
N: Thank you.
J: -and if the company allowed it, I would straight up kill you myself!
N: J is awesome! Hey, let me give you a tour! Outside of the corpse... wall... thingies. In here are the buttons! Beep boop bopoop.
Uzi: This isn't just a landing pod. This is a spaceship! This could get us off the planet!
N: More of a one use missle, they never taught us how to land.
Uzi: No, I- I mean the worker drones, we could work with them to fix this. Instead of all the murder! Which, why are we doing that again?
N: Other than ingesting their WARM SWEET oil to avoid overheating and dying? I guess I just want to be usefull. I was given a job, and I always want to try my best!
Uzi: And look at all respect it's gotten you, N. Do you really think the company isn't going to dispose of you once all the workers are dead?!
N: Wow, you sure are rebellious. It's kind of exciting, but uh not as fun as following the rules.
*thumps*
N: Oh hey! They're back, you'll-
J: Idiot, get out here!
V: *giggles* Yo! We got a worker out there that I kinda wanna practice balloon animal shapes with. What happened here?
J: Synergistic liability here must have tripped and knocked himself offline. *smacks N, which rude* Moron bot, hello?
N: Oh. OOOOOOHHHHHH You know, I left an extremely dangerous weap- thing, excuse outside!
Random worker drone, might be Todd?: I am out boys.
Another random worker drone, might be Braxton idk?: Wait until my loving wife and kids hear about this.
All: Oh, come on!
Uzi: Ugh, bite me! Close it close it!
N: Hey fellas! Ooh deal me in, I love Rummy! No, wait I'm going to murder everyone. Rain check!
Khan: Pretty nice hydraulics, huh? What- what have you done?!
Uzi: this time I won't miss!
N: *laughs* I'm sorry, I really enjoyed our time together. But I can't have you shooting V with that thing.
Uzi: Bite me! Dad get down.
Khan: Uzi, you lead a murder drone here?! My beautiful doors!
Uzi: Now is so not the time! I messed up, in the same way I'm about to fix it! Move dad! *gets stabbed* Dad, point and shoot. Trust me! Dad?
J: Woah, N. Did you do something not useless for once?
V: I've been trying to get past those doors for months! Nice work, N.
N: You, me, name, remember?
V: These ventilation shafts can easily get us past this last door. Lowest body count eats a missle!
J: Way to go stud. With this colony wiped, we'll make top teams this quarter for sure! You know what that means. Branded pens!
N: Ooh! Uh you know not that I can't wait to keep murdering all these uh, maybe not so different from us worker drones. But out of curiosity do we actually uh know what the company plans to do with us afterwards?
J: Excuse me?
N: So a worker earlier might have suggested to fix our landing pod to escape the planet and stuff, which HEY! That's against the rules. But it does make me question, why our pods were one way in the first place. Cause I get the feeling that the company doesn't love robots, and we might be robots? I made a terrible mistake. It's cool how immediately I could tell.
J: No way, buddy. Questioning the company? You finally gave me the excuse I needed. Worker drones are corrupted, N. That's why the company sent us. I'd hate to see you corrupted as well.
N: Thanks, J. You're always looking out for me. You're awesome. Ah, biscuits. I'm sorry. I ruined your card game, then made you have an awkward moment with you dad.
Uzi: And I made you rebel like an angsty teen, which got you killed. Though, you also tried to kill me, so morality calls this a draw. For the record, that was the lamest heel face turn in history. Was that supposed to be you switching sides?
N: Being rebellious is a lot harder than it looks. Thanks for showing me the ropes.
Uzi: Nuh-huh. No bonding thing, you just killed a bunch of people idiot.
N: That's super fair. Ugh, I screwed up.
Uzi: Uuuughh. In the same way you're about to fix it?
N: Haha, uh, I love doing anything.
Khan: So, they found our evacuation spot. But, if we build a quick door-
Thad: Are you kidding me? You're the WDF, defend! For real?
Uzi: HEY! Put that conventionally attractive male down.
N: J, you're sometimes kind of mean to me. And I wish you weren't. Just some constructive criticism.
Uzi: nice
J: Noted traitor. We'll circle back after I right size your existence.
Uzi: OK, which one do you want?
N: J please.
Uzi: Too bad, good luck!
*fighting*
J: Damn the well made, quality assured durability of JcJenson products! Huh? Ahhhhh!
N: Uzi! I'm so so sorry. Have repressing this. MLEM
V: Ew, what the hell!
J: You've got a lot of guts for a barely sentient toaster. I've had prey fight back before, but your edgy spirits are just so...painful? GAH! Fourth quarter profits! Mother of company leadership retreats!
Uzi: One more buzzword and I'll do it!
J: Equity partner- *gets blasted in the face*
Thad: Holy hell, Uzi. That was insane! And you too uh...
N: Huh, oh uh N. I'm an angsty rebellious disassembly drone now!
Khan: ahem
Uzi: I brought the murder drones here on accident. You chose to leave me for dead, instead of just frickin believing in me! And that's not even an edgy teen hyperbole like when I used it last week! I'll save you the trouble, dad. I banish myself! Let's go, N. Everyone here can bite me.
N: Nice meeting you Mr. Uzi
Uzi: Shut it *smacks N which rude*
N: I'd join you if the sun didn't kill me. Hope you're having important character growth or something though!
Uzi: Just can't wait to murder all humans. Classic robot stuff. I hope they're sitting pretty there on earth. Cause we're coming for them. Hahaha... AhahahHAHAH.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I swear I'm normal... I think?

adfjadhsfhjdfjfsdf. Finally, officially, finished Love Like The Galaxy. 1) I am so freaking sad to have finished it. It was amazing. 2) it was absolutely beautiful. From the plot to the characters. Just. Everything about it was so freaking well done.
Even though I knew there would be a couple break up (because what’s a C Drama without the main couple breaking up at least once) for once I was actually understanding of it and only very mildly annoyed by it. Like everything was just so in character and the reasonings fit. It wasn’t just drama for drama sake. It was drama for the plot and growth of the characters. And it made sense within the plot. I understood why the characters felt the way they did and why Cheng Shaoshang didn’t forgive him for so long. I understood why Huo Buyi did the things he did. It wasn’t a big misunderstanding. It was both of them trying to protect one another and love each other in the ways they knew how. They just weren’t quite at a place in their relationship where those could go together in the circumstance they were in. (Now, that doesn’t mean I’m totally there in line for some fix it fics where they do talk things through and get on the same page before shit hits the fan. But I wasn’t totally mad about it in the story.)
But then the last episodes, all of it finally coming together. A Qi at Cheng Shaoshang’s side helping and doing as she asked, but also there to protect her, following probably Zisheng’s ultimate order which was probably to protect her and keep her safe. Then her entire family running in to help.
And then freaking Wan Qiqi and Cheng Song. I loved the scene in the tent!!! It was so great. The way the Cheng brothers went back and forth and Wan Qiq was like oh yeah? got something to tell me Cheng Song? And A Qi and A Fei there just like watching a tennis match, their eyes bouncing back and forth, and both of their facial expressions through out were just!!! Had me giggling! I loved that you could just see the curiosity on their faces of hey this is Young Madam’s family/these people are about to become Yong Master’s family, we should get to know them.
And of course the emperor’s final scene and Empress Yue closing the doors were just so in character and also a great comical way to end if we weren’t going to get a wedding. Same for the grandmother’s scene.
I just loved how the whole story was told. I also appreciated that by the end I was even rooting for Lou Yao and He Zhaojun and that you could tell they were on their way to a good life together. The writers just did such a great job of weaving the story through the characters and then tying it all together. I love Cheng Shaoshang and Huo Buyi’s love story. I’ll admit I was a little impatient at the beginning. But then episodes 30 - 40 where their love story finally begins to flourish was just so well done. I loved the way Cheng Shaoshang slowly fell in love with him throughout the entire story, while Huo Buyi remained steadfast throughout it all, except for the little blip. But even then, there was no doubt about his feelings for her. I just.. ugh. so great.
Seriously. I’ve watched C Dramas before and enjoyed them and thought they were good. I have my list of dramas that I rewatch or read fanfic over and over. But this one just...it’s probably in my top 2 of all time dramas. I fell in love with the characters (hard not to when the FL is Zhao Lusi I mean. come on. I love everything she’s in.). I fell in love with the story. The cinematography was great and the freaking way colors were used throughout!!!
I loved how any time Huo Buyi got serious or started on the lines of his family revenge, he instantly reverted back to wearing black. Then in episodes 30 - 40 when their relationship is relatively good, he’s in much softer colors, typically colors along the same lines as what Cheng Shaoshang is wearing. Then after his mother/aunt dies and the morning, he’s back to black. Then in the 5 years after, when he’s back in the capital and slowly coming back to himself and moving on, and being his caring self, when he’s not in uniform, we see him in one of his nicer white outfits again, back in the lighter colors. Now Idk if that was something to signify where he was in his emotions, or a tribute of mourning for the empress, but I’m satisfied with it being a little of both.
But just even the little details like the colors of the clothes, to the way scenes were set up and shot, the way scenes were framed and opened, to the story line and characters. It was all just so well done. At this point... I don’t remember what mutual was reblogging/posting things for LLTG that came on my dash, but I thank you. Cause this will be on my favorites list for a long time. Beautiful story. Well done characters. Just everything about it was so so good. I’m honestly left feeling more happy that I found the series and was able to watch it, than sad it’s over.
#lltg spoilers#lltg#love like the galaxy#jay jabbers#ling buyi#zisheng#cheng shaoshang#niao niao#trying to ramble all my feels out#this was so good#I won't be over this drama for a good month at least#please come yell at me about this drama in my ask box#if you want to talk about lltg let's do it

Freaking out about Shadow Androids for a minute
So for those of you who don't know, I'm actually somewhat of a Shadow Simp. Like, I unironically love the character. Even like the Shadow game so long as I use a pre-completed save file. Can't get enough of him.
So, naturally, I love Shadow Androids, introduced as a concept in Sonic Heroes, but seen more properly during Shadow the Hedgehog, where they looked like this:
My boys are looking fantastic.
Anyway, they disappeared after Shadow, so I've had this running theory that they're built, at least partially, out of Shadow's DNA. The ones we saw in Heroes and Shadow were the purest, having the most Shadow DNA in them, only really having upgrades like the missiles since, as established by the Biolizard, working with that Ultimate Lifeform DNA is hard, and I don't doubt Eggman would be taking shortcuts in trying to grapple with it. The audio logs in Frontiers show that he has SOME familiarity with how DNA works, since he was able to figure out the connection with the Ancients and Chaos, so it works so far.
But of course, after Heroes, Eggman no longer has access to Shadow for new DNA samples, and a good chunk of his supply was destroyed in Shadow, so he presumably has to start cutting down on how much DNA he uses. This is what creates the yellow variant we see in Shadow's multiplayer mode, being the first "downgrade." Their Chaos energy would presumably be somewhat less refined than the original units, thus the yellow coloring, but they're otherwise on par.
However, in this headcanon, they're also the most rare, since Eggman soon had to redesign these guys to use as little of Shadow's DNA as possible, thus resulting in the metallic variants also seen in Shadow's multiplayer. I like to think their weapons give them slightly different abilities, but idk.
Ultimately, however, they fall into disuse, only being brought out on rare occasions since they take increasing amounts of resources to produce and maintain, thus why the Diamond Cutters didn't know about them during that scene in IDW.
This was the logic I used in my fanfic, "Reflections," and even said that they were entirely destroyed after the Eggman War by Shadow, since I doubted they'd ever come up again. I even have this whole storyline I wanted to do with them. Got the second part waiting in the wings and everything.
BUT THEN THIS HAPPENED
So basically, now I'm wondering if I'll have to edit Reflections and entirely scrap the new story to line up with canon, since unlike some of you FREAKS out there, I actually LIKE my stuff to line up.
But I do have to question what's up with these greyish ones. Like, are those stripes meant to be green? And judging by Shadow's fur, why do they also have black fur when they're using the mouths and eyes of the metallic variants? Even their previous appearances had them being more grey and metallic.
Ugh, whatever, I'm mainly making this post to whine about my headcanons being contradicted when, as I pointed out in my post about my Sonic fanfictions, I like that my stuff mostly lines up. I'm interested enough in what this arc is cooking up that I can give it a pass if it's good enough.
I'll bitch harder if it sucks, though.

@gyubby99 I'm copying you.
What my OC's would think of the barbie movie.
Helluva/Hazbin:
Aella- would take her son to the movie cause she thought it would be a funny lighthearted movie. Only to cry like 5 times, especially at the end of the movie when "What was I made for" started playing. Then she later goes home and pulls out all of her barbies from her garage.
Aponi- the speech got to her the first time and she tried really hard to hide the tears that spilled during it and during "What was I made for". Understands the overall on a major level.... sits for the next few days with a numb look on her face as she listens to "what was I made for"
Azzaria- "HA FUCK THE PATRIARCHY" and also "I'm kenough". She also buys lots of merch.
Becca- went to see it with Blitz and loona, only to cry at "What eas I made for" specifically when the childhood scenes are playing in the background because it einded her of her own childhood.
Cordelia- Gloria is her favorite character. Sings the entire soundtrack (badly) while also dancing. Later after she processes the movie, she cries, because she understood the pressure to be perfect.
Furcalor- favorite character is Barbie (Margot Robbie). She fumes at how misogynistic the men in the movie were. Even tho her color is yellow and gold, she wears full blow hot pink to the movie..
Linda "Bunny" Davis- "not all men are like that!" and "the movie is very anti men, and in this society it really shouldn't be!"
Roxxie- cries for weeks while constantly wearing pink.
TPOIF:
Ella- cries through the whole movie while leaning on Eli.
Eli- holds ella as he watches the movie, understanding its about equality. Also buys "I am kenough" hoofies for him and ella so they can match.
Mia- wants to fight literally every man in the movie. Loreley has to hold her back.
Loreley- tears up, but doesn't say anything even though she needs to cry her eyes out.
Alistar- "*rolls his eyes as he talks to a misogynist about how they understood the movie wrong* its about equality, dipshit! The movie shows how if we treated men the same way, there would be a fucking UPROAR but yet we treat women like this." Would also wear an "I am kenough" hoodie.
Rosalyn- she LOVES Gloria. She went home and broke out all her old barbies to play with hope.
Eve- loves how they went about making the film and is obsessed with President barbie.
Alruna- smiles through the whole movie because of the amazing message it's trying to send.
Deena- she balls her fucking EYES out. She knows her sister would love the damn movie, and she understands How pressure feels.
Clare- tries to hide that she cries, but laughs through the whole movie every time a man is dragged through the mud.
Carol- fucking CRIES. because she had to grow up real fast when she got married to John, and she wasn't allowed her childhood anymore. She really needs a hug.
Jacob- likes it and likes Ken, but doesn't appreciate how Ken rose up against barbie. He wears pink not because his family made him, but because he wanted to be THAT dad. Bjys his family babies afterwards and makes sure his girls know how loved they are..
John- "ugh. Why would I see the barbie movie? Critics say it's all about WOMEN" (ps.my dad legit did this. He said that he didn't like the babrie movie cause people say Ken was "silenced" in the end. My dad has not seen the movie. I lost a bit of respect for my father after he said that tbh)
Eathan- buys a Ken doll afterwards, and buys Carol a doll that looks like her with a note that says "you were made to be the best woman in the universe, my love"
Hope- this girl cries her eyes out at the end. She then goes to play barbies with her mom.
Isaac- "oh I LOVE Margot Robbie!!!!"
Asher- too young to understand and laughs at all the jokes. Later asks why his sister and mom were crying.
Emily- tears up with a sad smile before leabing onto her mom, hugging her.
Other:
Avianna- cries. Also laughs at how much men get dragged.
Frozenverse:
Eirwen- glances continuously at her mom when "what was I made for" plays. She also starts to break down when after the movie, her mother hugs her and kisses her on the head murmuring "i love you so much, my little snow".

F please!
Hi nonnie1
F: Share a snippet from one of your favourite dialogue scenes you've written and explain why you're proud of it.
OOOH okay interesting!
This is pretty long so I'm gonna put it under a cut
This is from chapter 43 of The Stranger titled "Lover"
I love this entire chapter so much because it's the morning after they have sex for the first time and a pivotal moment in the story. It's very soft, and sweet, and adoring, and they get to know each other on a more intimate level.
In general, as you guys might already know, dialogue is definitely what I'm best at writing, but I'm proud of this one because it always makes me smile when I read it. I often go back to it for comfort, I really enjoy their dynamic in it, and it sets the tone for the book going forward. <3
"How many siblings do you have?" Chris asks me as his fingers trail up and down my arm.
I'm playing with the bubbles in the tub as I sit between his legs, my back and head leaning on his chest.
"Just one. A brother."
"Are you close?"
"Yeah, kinda," I say with a shrug, "But he's older so we didn't really get to grow up together."
Chris hums and I take his hand, placing bubbles on his knuckles as I ask, "What about you?"
"I have two sisters and a brother."
"Mmh, right, and I remember you telling me you guys were close, so I don't have to ask that."
He chuckles and places a kiss on my shoulder, "Right."
"What's your favorite color?" I ask as I move my fingers up his forearm.
"Blue."
"Ugh, boring!" I say and he laughs before responding, "It's not boring, it's classic!"
"Classic is another word for boring. Or basic."
His teeth nip at my shoulder teasingly before he kisses my temple, mumbling against it, "What's your favorite color?"
"Green," I reply immediately.
"Green? How is blue basic but green isn't?"
"Green is not basic!" I quickly exclaim, "Not a lot of people have green as a favorite. And I like a particular shade of green." I gather up a pile of bubbles in front of me as I speak.
He chuckles, "Fine, and what shade is that, then?"
"Forest green," I reply with a wide smile as I scoop up some of the bubbles in my hand. I move his arm a little to make it easier for me to create patterns with them on his arm.
"Forest green?" He asks as he leans into my movement, shifting slightly to allow me better access as I place bubbles on his skin.
"Mmhmm," I say as I nod before rambling on, my fingers making little shapes and patterns on his arm as I speak, "You know, that color of leaves during spring and summer. When the sun is out but the tall trees in the forest casts a shadow on everything below. The kind of thick, deep green you only see when nature is thriving."
He stays quiet once I finish my sentence, and for a moment I almost think he's elected to tune me out, but then he whispers, "That sounds beautiful."
"It is," I say with a smile as I try to draw a heart in the bubbles I've placed on his arm, "It makes me feel all happy and cozy inside every time I see it."
He places another kiss on my temple before smiling against it, whispering, "I think green might be my favorite color now, too."
✦✧✦✧
"I'm very close with my family," Chris says as his finger draws invisible lines on the back of my hand. We're lying on the bed, still wrapped in towels from our bath, and my wet hair is slouching on his shoulder as I'm resting my head on it, but for some reason he doesn't seem to mind.
"I remember," I say as I smile softly, "You told me a little bit about it over the phone."
"Yeah," he says quietly, "I've always been really close with everyone in my family. That's why I like to stay in Boston as much as I can."
"I get that," I say as my fingers play with the hair on his chest, "I'm close with mine too, for the most part. But sometimes it's also hard because they have expectations and I don't always feel like I can live up to them.."
"I get that," he mumbles as his fingertip runs over my knuckles.
I chuckle, "Do you, though? I can't imagine anyone in your family not being proud of you."
"Maybe not now," he says more solemnly, "But in the past it wasn't as easy. I didn't know what was going to happen, for the first ten years I took parts just to ensure I got by. It was fun, I got to play a lot of different characters, and it would be enough to keep me going. But it's very different now.."
"How?"
He shrugs lightly, "I have full control of what roles I pick and I get offered a lot more, sure. But it comes at a cost. The fame and the obligations, it's a lot. It took me a long time to adjust. I don't even know if I actually am fully adjusted, yet.. I didn't even want to accept the role as Cap back when it was first offered to me, I said no three times."
"Oh.. What changed your mind?"
"Robert called me. And then my mom told me that if I didn't do it, I would regret it. Which, in retrospect, she was probably right about. I have a hard time imagining what my life would be like if I hadn't, now."
I hum, running my fingers over the tattooed words just below his collarbone gently.
"Are you close with your mom?" he asks, his arm around me tightening its hold slightly as his fingers caress my waist.
"Yeah, she's like my best friend," I say with a smile and it makes him chuckle.
"Guess that's another thing we have in common."
I giggle, "Mama's boy."
His fingers tickle my waist a little and it only makes me giggle more.
"I love my mom," he says hesitantly, "We've always been close.."
"I'm just messing with you. Being close with your mom is actually an amazing quality. Although it is very intimidating.."
"What do you mean?" he asks.
I widen my eyes slightly when I suddenly realize what I said and quickly backtrack, "Oh, uh, nothing.. Don't know why I said that.."
I can hear the grin on his face when he says, "Oh, you mean when you're going to meet her? Worried you can't compete?"
I blush at his words and stay silent which makes him slide down on the bed so he can look at me.
"You're blushing," he says teasingly, making me glare at him.
"Shut up," I grumble and it makes him laugh.
"I think it's cute that you're already thinking about meeting my mom," he says with a teasing smirk and it makes me want to smack it right off him.
"Ugh, you're the worst!" I say and he laughs again, leaning down to kiss my forehead and then the tip of my nose.
"And you're adorable."
I blush even more at his words, averting his gaze.
He moves his head again, forcing me to meet his eyes as he grins at me, "You wanna meet my mom, hmm?"
I pinch my lips together as I glare at him, making it obvious that I don't intend on saying another word.
"Oh come on!" He says with a laugh, "It's cute!"
I close my eyes and cover my face with my hands as I whine.
He keeps laughing, grabbing one wrist to try and pry it off my face gently.
When it doesn't work I can practically hear the pout on his face as he says, "Come on, let me see you. I don't like when you cover your pretty face like that.."
God damn him. That's impossible to resist.
I hesitantly remove one hand from my face, peeking out to look at him and the pout that I already knew would be there turns into a grin again.
Then he leans closer, kissing my cheek before whispering in my ear, "You need to answer my question.."
"What question?" I ask shyly.
He chuckles in my ear, "The one about whether you want to meet my mom."
My cheeks heat up immediately again and I feel a nervous anxiousness bubbling through me.
"Uhm," I whisper, "I mean, of course I do.. Eventually, I guess.. Depending on.. You know.."
Chris quickly pulls his head back to look at me with furrowed brows as he coaxes me to drop my other hand from my face, "Depending on.. What?"
He's making me say it? Really?
"Well, you know.. Depending on what happens with.. this..." I whisper hesitantly.
He frowns, "Isn't it pretty clear whats going to happen already?"
I feel my nerves bubbling up, scanning his eyes as I answer, "Uhm.. No..?"
Chris sighs and shakes his head as he drops it a little, "Thought I was being obvious."
The butterflies in my stomach are now moving about uncontrollably, my heart rate picking up as I look at him curiously.
He looks at me seriously, cupping my cheek and caressing it with his thumb as he whispers, "What's going to happen is that I'm not ever letting you go now that I have you. And feel free to interpret that any way you'd like."
Thank you for playing!! <3

Belladonna by Adalyn Grace
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
(spoilers below)
"Hello, Little Bird, care to dance?"
----
Ugh this was a masterpiece in every sense of the word. I was hesitant because for me I've had a hard time loving books lately - and while it took me two months to read (due to college) I loved every second of it!
"He made haste, not because he was unnerved by the body but because he was fearful of Signa with her raven hair and oddly colored eyes, and of the crowd of neighbors who watched from a distance with knowing looks."
The atmosphere of this novel was honestly perfection, I don't think I've read anything with such a well built atmosphere and flowery prose that wasn't too flowery ever (well there might be something I'm reading now, but its a completely different one). I even told the author herself that the book gave me Crimson Peak but without the incest vibes, and it seems I'm not the only one, and that was exactly what I was looking for.
"The term garden, in this case, was used loosely. Over the years the land decorated itself with weeds and wildflowers Magda had often complained about, and that Signa spent hours tending to it as well as she could, without so much as a shovel or shears."
I really enjoyed the mystery, and while I wished it was Charlotte after seeing other people's opinions and making my own second hand connections, I still enjoyed how I kept wondering who it was, never sure if anyone could be trusted - and the Sylas reveal was exquisite and honestly made sense to me at least.
"Signa stopped to inspect the poor creature, which was covered in soil and hungry ants that had every intention of devouring it alive. The insects overtook it, ruthless in their pursuit. Signa couldn't help but sympathize with the creature; it was like her - cast out of its nest and expected to fend for itself. Only it was not as capable as Signa; for it could not cheat death. It would be a mercy for the creature to die swiftly and be put out of its misery."
The quote above was what made me think of Crimson Peak (its on Netflix as of typing this review) and the shots of different insects dying or being eaten by others. Horrifying and chilling to the bone, and I can never stomach watching those entire scenes, but reading it was oddly intriguing for me!
"But then the world slipped in piece by piece. She listened to final breaths and soft words. To the murmurs of love spoken to the dying, and though there was sadness there, there was also warmth for the live that had led them to that moment."
This was such a well written description of grief, and it only got better at the very end when Elijah looses Lillian for good and we get that experience between them and Signa. I was finishing the last sixty pages of this wonderful novel while soaking in a bath, and was straight up sobbing at that part.
Anyway, I can't believe I have to wait 9 months for Foxglove ahhhhh

And now I have to wait 9 months for Foxglove. Fuck.

(WAKANDA FOREVER SPOILERS)
From the moment the movie started and until the movie ended, it was perfect.
I knew the movie was going to emotional, and from the amazing trailers, my expectations were very high. And somehow Wakanda Forever has exceeded my expectations. Knowing that Shuri was trying to save T’Challa but was too late, broke my heart. And then the marvel intro came on and the ENTIRE theater was silent. This is defintely a movie that you have to watch in theaters before you watch it on DVD, because it’s the experience that carries the weight.
The plot is incredible and—being a person of color—it resonates with me deeply because there is definitely a disconnect between minorites and we often turn on eachother, instead of coming together and protect one another. And I think WF touches on that in a perfect way. Namor offering an alliance and then Wakanda and Talokan becoming enemies, but also in the end they come a sort of agreement. And then showcasing how they are SO similiar, even down to the way they greet eachother. It’s brillant.
The cinematography is breathtaking. When the Talokans attacked the ship, it was amazing. They were terrifying in the best way possible, and to have them sound like sirens???? WHEW, as someone who loves the lore of sirens, I was so excited to see that. And their backstory was just so facisinating, and the BIRTHING SCENE??? UGH. Each slow mo scene in this movie was perfectly balanced, and it didn’t seem like ti went on for too long or was over done, it was just right.
Now let’s get down to real spoilers.
KILMONGER?? WHEWWWWW. When I tell you that I could not have guessed that was going to happen… Immediately his presence was just UGH, I loved that cameo. And it’s also a cameo that makes sense. Considering this happens right after her mother drowned, Shuri has this immense amount of anger and she’s feeling vegeful. And who’s more angry and vegeful than Kilmonger??? Perfect.
THE SOUNDTRACK?? Fucking perfect. Personally, the best song is Alone by Burna Boy, and it’s just *chefs kiss*. And the scores itself was great. And the use of sound was well balanced, letting us simmer in those silent moments.
The jokes were fucking hilarious. Every single joke hit. Had everyone in the theater cracking tf up. I’m still chuckling at “bald headed demon”. PLS.
Riri was amazing, and she exceeding my expectations as well. Her comedic timing was on point. “Young, gifted and black” indeed.
There’s so much I could talk about this movie, but I don’t want this review to be terribly long. So let me hurry up and talk about the ending.
From the moment when Shuri had flashbacks of T’Challa and to when it was revealed that T’challa has A SON?? Tears. Nothing but tears. I sobbed so hard when I got back home. I don’t know how the hell marvel managed to avoid spoilers of Kilmonger AND T’Challa’s son (who is also named T’Challa, i’m literally sobbing), but they did it brillantly. The entire movie was an out of body experience that you could only feel if you go to the theaters. And I will even go far as to say it exceeds the first movie.
10/10.
