[nostalgia-tblr]

having a vague "why am i writing this horrible story?" crisis about the anglo-saxon au fic that has taken over my mind since *checks* about two days ago. i have approx 2000 words of it written so it is going fairly well in that sense but i have gone a bit niche with my fics recently and am starting to think "nobody wants to read this, people will be annoyed at you if you post this" a bit more often, even though they probably won't because it's a free cake and it's rude to complain about free cake.

#HOWEVER while hits are low the comments are about the same so that's actually my fics doing better really isn't it? #i keep stats hidden on ao3 usually but i occasionally put them back on and look at my stats page #part of switching off stats wasn't MY stats so much as other people's. i do think losing that context makes me feel better about mine. #for all i know 120 hits for a month-old sifki fic is Incredible Amounts of Number Go Up so i may as well just assume it is right? #just as i have MANY silent fans who are too shy to comment or kudos or rec my fic but they LOVE me and i am their FAVE #okay this little pep-talk in the tags has helped somewhat: i NEED to finish this horrible fic for the lurkers who love me! they'll LOVE it! #ps: the missy & jamie moriarty fic has had 24 hits which considering the crossover i am actually very pleased with :D #\o/ #fic related #btw if i start tagging my fic-related posts with the working-titles so i can later track my own thought processes would that be weird? #is that too “anne rice if she had a yahoo mailing list”?

As someone who grew up with the 4kids version it's so fucking funny to read the yugioh manga and see Yami say shit like his opponent doesnt have any balls or that he'll beat their "fat ass" Yami literally has 0 chill in the manga and it's the funniest shit

#these are direct quotes btw #he also tells haga/weevil that he'd pull his legs off one by one like the insect he is #he's chilled out enough that he isn't setting people on fire anymore but damn #still only in the duelist kingdom arc #yugioh #yami yugi #yugioh duelist #atem #as someone who grew up fat im not suoer hapoy about it being used as an insult but this did come out a while ago now #so like i get it and its still funny to see come from my childhood fave's mouth

I'm so tired. This is why this fandom has so many issues, because people want to write their own fanfiction about what happened and then pretend that it's canon. None of this is in the books. You aren't going to be able to find a single shred of evidence to support any of this and yet they present it as fact. I'm so tired of this hypocritical nonsense from Sansa stans and this is exactly why I'm never going to take them seriously when they cry about the "hate" that Sansa gets. At least when we talk about Sansa we're actually using the books. I need them to just stop speaking about Arya altogether.

#anti sansa stans #arya stark #pro arya stark #imagine being this stupid #how did they even figure out how to make a tumblr account with this level of comprehension?? #this is the same person who said 9 year Arya had a /persecution complex/ btw #they're obviously reading /asoiaf: Stansa edition/ cause they didn't get this from the books #anyways crying about how much of a victim Sansa is isn't going to impact the books so I need them to pack it up #they say shit like this and then wonder why nobody likes them or their fave

2023 was a really good year for me. The past couple of years I feel like I've grown a lot creatively and personally. 2022 laid down a lot of groundwork, and 2023 felt like a payoff. Getting a new job, a job I actually really love, writing SOBR, getting back into reading. That's kind of been the trifecta of good things this year for me, but I also made new friends and just branched out a lot more, I guess. I'm happy with my year and I look forward to 2024. Happy New Year, y'all.

#psy's no punctuation posts #i read 40 books this year btw!!!! #could've read more but i started in March ysee #so hopefully i read even more next year!! though quantity isn't very important to me #i'll probably talk about my top faves from the year like. tomorrow. not tonight i am tired and do not feel like it. but maybe tomorrow

potential bsd s5 endings by most -> least interesting

1) some of main cast survive, others die

2) all main cast die

3) all main cast survive individually

4) all main cast survive through a single event (eg. page)

5) all main cast survive through a single event, spongebob timeskip to random flying dude to close out the season

#bsd #bungou stray dogs #bsd spoilers #bungou stray dogs spoilers #i understand they kind of need to say 'this isn't the end' after how final this season was #but why kill the emotional impact of the ending by having some dude close out the season #btw if you want my opinion on who should have died #it's dazai #he is legit my fave chara in the show but he eclipses everyone else #i think for anyone else to get even borderline decent development and agency in the story he needs to go #i'm largely an anime only (checked up on some manga when everyone went insane about mersault) #but from what i've heard about the light novels they are all somehow about him too #i don't even like atsushi but i wish he was actually the main character

guys.

guys twitter sucks

#twitter #felix and his rants #i think one of hte reasons i like tumblr so much #is bc follower count isnt public #anyone could have a billion followers or none!! #so you dont get stressed and because follower count isn't directly in your face all the time #you don't fret about how many you have #like i have no idea what my follower count is #and honestly couldnt care less :3 #it's not like that other social medias i've been on #(oh and btw i did NOT move from twitter. i made an acc for the sole purpose of following my fave ccs)

The two sides of my brain are in conflict rn

One Side: Get new f/os! Talk about old f/os that you're getting back into! Don't spend all your time on one thing!

The other side: This is the H*R f/o blog now! No other f/os just H*R!

#hsr is my fave thing ever #but i feel bad talking about getting new f/os and then immediately jumping back to my hsr sh*t like nothing happened #this isn't too serious btw i just feel silly

Thinking about how my top 3 favorite female Sonic characters are all IDW originals and wondering how much of that has to do with the fact that a woman (Evan) was/is heavily involved in their creation and writing.

#the characters are Whisper - Tangle - and Surge btw. if you're wondering. #it just made me wonder how many women have been involved in writing the Sonic games over the years #but when I search ''how many women are on Sonic team'' nothing comes up #and everyone who is mentioned as having written for the games are all men #which isn't necessarily a bad thing! men can write women characters well if they try #I mean Ian Flynn is a man and he also had a huge hand in the comics (obviously) and did right by Amy in Frontiers etc #but like . . . Amy has been handled atrociously in past games. and so much of her design revolves around her being a LI for Sonic #to the point where *the only reason she was made at all* is bc Sega wanted Sonic to have a LI #and then you look at Rouge's . . . everything. how she was only made to be 18 so they could get away with sexualizing her #Blaze and Cream are fine but they're much more minor compared to Rouge and especially Amy #idk. again men can write woman characters obviously. anyone can write anyone if they try #but like. you look at Rouge and you know it was a man who designed her #but you look at Whisper or Surge and you know a woman was the lead behind those designs #idk man. just thinkin about it. #also don't take this as Rouge hate bc it's not. she's my 4th fave Sonic lady #but it's just. you know what the thought process behind her was #and it's very exasperating even tho i love her despite it

*reminds myself some arguments aren't worth picking bc i don't have the energy even though i really want to*

#this is about ableism from loki fans btw #like i love y'all most of the time but. #you should not be offended that a shitty writer armchair diagnosed loki with npd bc you're upset on behalf of your blorbo #narcissistic people are real. loki isn't. #you should be offended bc it's perpetuating stigma against people with cluster b personality disorders who don't fucking deserve that shit #like. defend your faves all you want but please be aware of exactly how you're doing that #i know a lot of us are on the spectrum so let me try this: #imagine someone saying ''peter parker can't be autistic; he's smart'' #obviously that's bullshit #and it's bullshit that perpetuates the ableist idea that autistic people are unintelligent #just. for the love of g-d please remember to prioritize real people for fuck's sake

[vampacidic]

do you ever see someone's interpretation of a character and you're like yes omg live your truth <3 you're wrong though

#not about anyone here btw #i jsut get possessive over rei because i'm a freak. y'all are fine though you guys get it #i think it's funny i go on about 'people who are rude or die for a hc are annoying' then block people for the most innocuous shit #sage talks #i get crazy possessive over my faves to the point where i have an attachment that Isn't Normal but idk what it is #so i call it the autism fascination. rei sakuma is the current target of the autism and he will be for a while #idk man i just like letting people have fun so i tend to just block/mute/whatever and move on #like idk. have fun!!! and if someone doesn't like your shit and they're being annoying block em!! i encourage it #sorry for the like. somewhat negativity on the dash im feeling evil tonight #what body horror does to a mf

i watched the pilot of brba the other night and it occured to me then that there is a specific kind of guy that i become obsessed with turning over and over in my head like observing a coin shine in the sunlight:

a tragic adult male figure that ends up hurting those closest to him (and/or) everyone around him, because of his own crumbling to society's expectations and pressures of him as a man, leader, patriarch, or simply as a person, and a slow succumbing to self-loathing, insanity, addiction, curse, evil, or just long-suffering... and the tragic consequences of his instability and harmful behaviors affect his family first, perhaps the ones he loves most, or the only ones which love him, before it finally gets around back to him and he begins to suffer tenfold. sometimes they are dads (biological, or adoptive), or they are something like an unofficial guardian to a child, or they *would* have had a child had it not been for their behavior. sometimes there's a redemption arc or redeemable qualities, and sometimes there's just a slow demise.

#THISSS is what my mind revolves around. this is what i think everyone else should be obsessed with and no one seems to be #from top to bottom beginning with the good guys: emiel regis | geralt of rivia | simon petrikov (ice king) #for 'decent': odysseus | agamemnon | nandor (i put them in 'decent' by their ancient standards. obviously the war + pillaging isn't great) #nandor i gotta be real with you was a last-minute addition to this because wwdits is a comedy but i realized he fits this formula #despite the 'stay dead' mention. i forgot about wwdits #and i also forgot that he fathered a bunch of children soooo i edited it to put him in the father area #the 'awesome / decent / stay dead' ranking is by my own personal judgement of them btw and how much i like them #im sorry to put simon so (relatively) low but who didn't hate the ice king in the first few seasons of AT... #i actually really like odysseus... he's my academic poor little meow meow... but... problematic fave #agamemnon and nandor i like but they are just stupid #and below that i just have hate and contempt in my heart for them. like i hope they die and suffer greatly #i would have put emhyr but the thing is that emhyr was evil (power-hungry and selfish) since the beginning and he didn't really become #corrupted or anything he just continued being a horrible person. like just read a question of price basically lol #i dont need to explain geralt or regis. or do i. maybe i should. idk #basically for geralt i just think about sword of destiny and something more and how he left ciri in brokilon and condemned the both of them #and also how he wouldnt take the child when he went to see calanthe in something more like just real dumbass tragic hero behavior #regis. he's not a tragic hero but he destroyed his life catastrophically. he suffered a lot and made it everybody else's problem #so if you have any recs on other characters that are like this maybe i will become obsessed with them idk. #i think they have to be at least somewhat likable. learn from their past actions and try to make things better. even if they dont succeed #actually if they dont succeed thats even better (see: geralt) #but if they just suck for real then i just don't even want to watch or read more like damn get some help or k*ll yourself #i should honestly make my OC's dad like this. he already 90% is. honestly. #i like it when they are good on the inside :> and try to turn things around and save ppl they love but they meet a tragic end anyways :') #except odysseus i think he should get to live happily ever after on ithaca i'm honestly kind of glad we lost the telegony #men who are thiiiiis close to commiting s*icide from the extreme pressure society places upon them #but instead they chicken out and instead stab their wife or child. OR BOTH #txt #cw domestic violence

Okay hear me out - 

MewTwo but as a Magikarp Jump Support Pokemon

MewTwo's Held Item: Odd Incense

Unlocks for 600 diamonds, and has one upgrade for a total of two stars. The upgrade costs 7 support candies 

MewTwo's Skill: Guarantees a 5% cheer on the next League Battle at one star/25% at two stars. MewTwo will never show up to cheer outside of using their Skill. Cheer animation is lifting a hand towards the camera and glaring.

Recovery: 8 hours

Other: Rest animation is kneeling and closing their eyes. Walking animation is floating gently forward. Click animation is similar to Cheer, except with closed eyes, like they’re waving away your hand. Secondary Click animation is spreading their feet and eyes glowing ominously.

#Pokemon #MewTwo #Magikarp Jump #Put your fave in Pokemon Jump just do it go right ahead #I mean there's already Manaphy! Even if that one's just an Event Pokemon lol #I just love the idea of MewTwo coming to hang out near the pond and chilling comfortably #Honestly still kinda tempted to make fake screenshots of some of the animations spitballed here #I also like how standoffish MewTwo would be like ''I'm only coming to cheer for you when you're guaranteed to win'' #''Isn't that because you're cheering for me tho?'' ''Yes obviously pay attention'' lol #I think it'd be an especially useful skill when you know you're about to retire a Magikatp but you just need a liiiittle more over the top #It'd be so clutch to have a really cool pattern but just a little underleveled to make it to the Hall of Fame but then this ♪ #Oh yeah btw this vector is based off MewTwo's sprite art from Mystery Dungeon #I thought it was decently close to Magikarp Jump's aesthetic being all roundy and cute #Hopefully that's not blasphemous lol I've never played any of the PMMD series #It'd have to be changed to lineless to properly fit but it's a good start #WPMJ #WPVG

[kira-the-whump-enthusiast]

omg i saw you reblogged that one post about villains who love too much and tagged is as an oc named,,, alesky, i think? (This ask box is blocking the character name so apologies if i spelled it wrong), I am Intrigued and would love to know more about them

Sorry it took me so long to get to this ask!! Tysm for it btw I died of excitement when I saw this in my inbox!! And yes, that’s Aleksy!

Here are some picrews of them :D

And here’s some art my lovely and amazing friend made of them <3

Their full name is Aleksy Annora, and I made them like a year ago after I read “The Man Who Loved Flowers” by Steven King.

Some content warnings before the rant: domestic abuse, serial murder, a lot of angst, attempted murder, execution, attempted suicide, implied major character death, probably some more stuff

Aleksy is just a totally normal barista in a popular coffee shop, of course. There is no angst or tragedy or murder in their backstory, not at all.

Well who am I kidding lol. Pretty much their main concept is that they are a Serial Killer For Love™ cuz goddd I love that trope. Tho I wouldn’t really call Aleksy any sort of yandere. They share some of the aesthetic tho!

The thing about Aleksy is that they fall in love all the time, but at the same time love is the thing that scares them most.

To them, the easiest way out was to end their boyfriend’s life. So they took a pair of scissors, sharpened them to a point, and stabbed their boyfriend to death. Immediately afterwards they fled the country and changed their name to what it currently is, Aleksy.

To them, the easiest way out was to end their boyfriend’s life. So they took a pair of scissors, sharpened them to a point, and stabbed their boyfriend to death. Immediately afterwards they fled the country and changed their name to what it currently is, Aleksy.

And that’s how they ended up the city they live in currently! Aleksy wanted to just live a typical life, completely separate themself from all trauma they lived through, but that was not how things would go.

Aleksy is constantly falling in love. And normally, this wouldn’t really be that bad, but Aleksy is both obsessive and utterly terrified of everything that love means.

They fall head over heels, and they also do it really unhealthily. Like, they stalk their crushes, try to learn every single little detail about them, but they also will never talk to any one of them. (That’s how they justify it as okay in their head. And it’s not like it would be a good idea to ever pursue a relationship. Aleksy is too imperfect for that.)

And for a while, they’re happy, their crush seems perfect in every way, and maybe this time they’ll even build up the confidence to actually say hi. And then cracks start to show in the perfect idealized version of their crush that Aleksy has built in their head, and they become scared.

Scared that if they let themself be vulnerable around this person, then they’ll be hurt. Scared that any minor imperfection could point to a much deeper flaw, one that could end up hurting them in so many different and horrible ways. And then the obsession that fed them happiness becomes something incredibly distressing. They don’t want to feel like this, they don’t want to think about this person, and they’re absolutely terrified of losing the little control they have over their life.

So Aleksy always ends up grabbing the sharpened scissors they never discarded, and stabbing their love in the throat in the dark streets of the city at night.

It’s the only way they know how to end it. When their crush is dead, Aleksy can safely put them out of their mind. The dead never hurt anybody, after all.

And this has happened multiple times. They’re a wanted serial killer, but also, no one knows that they’re the culprit. The police are very slow in solving any sort of case, even the serial murders get put on long holds. Aleksy has managed to get away with their murders for this reason.

Until, they meet Juno Líming. Juno is investigating the serial murders that Aleksy has committed, because her brother, Kyu, was one of the victims. She asks Aleksy some questions, not knowing that they were the one that killed her brother. Aleksy isn’t aware that she’s Kyu’s sister.

And then they end up becoming friends! Juno is pretty much Aleksy’s first friend, actually. Most of their life they weren’t allowed to make friends in any meaningful way, and even after they escaped that, they didn’t really have any sort of drive to make friends. But because Juno is pretty much consistently visiting them for investigation reasons, the two end up getting to know each other :D

Aleksy finally has a healthy relationship! They don’t become any sort of obsessed with Juno, and Juno knows how to like. Make friendship. They do some wholesome stuff together :)

And then I hit them with my comically large angst hammer! Because while Aleksy very much enjoys the friendship, Juno is also making a lot of progress in finding out how Aleksy committed their murders, and now she’s really close to figuring out who was behind it. And then Aleksy realizes that if Juno finds out that they’re the culprit, then they’ll never be friends again.

They end up totally panicking, and they get a little messy in hiding the evidence. And their slip-ups are enough to make Juno realize that her friend, the person who’s supported her through all her hard times and her investigation, is also the serial killer she’s been chasing all this time. And the same person who murdered her brother.

Aleksy tries to run after this, but Juno chases them and ends up cornering them! And Aleksy realizes that they’ll surely be caught now, that their only friend must hate them now, and that they can’t keep living this life but they don’t what else they can do.

They try to kill themself with their scissors, right then and there.

And they end up surviving, but not without a scar on their neck and some damage to their larynx.

They do end up being tried for their crimes, and well, now they’re on death row. Juno does end up visiting them a lot, tho. She can’t really reconcile her knowledge of Aleksy as a friend and confidant with the knowledge that Aleksy is a serial killer and murdered someone very close to her. So she kind of omits the latter from her head. Her impression of Aleksy as a friend is stronger. And she’s tired of losing people close to her, she won’t let anything like it happen again. If that means being Aleksy’s friend, then she will do that.

Aleksy doesn’t really understand why she still wants to be her friend, and they think the last thing they deserve is her friendship, but they’re happy for the company regardless.
