#we won't disappoint in being a disappointment

[hedgehog-moss]

Ill be honest I don't really understand the big deal. Your friend is within her right to have two slices. Sometimes one would like some extra blueberry tart because one deeply enjoys blueberry tart and while I think human beings owe a lot to each other I feel that judging a friend for having extra blueberry tart when no one in the restaurant is actually going hungry is a bit of an overreaction.

That's fine, we disagree! It happens. No one was going hungry but we were sitting by the entrance and kept hearing people walk in and see the desserts and go like oh great! and I didn't want these people to be disappointed. Also I think my friend would have been annoyed if she hadn't been able to have any tart because other people ordered two pieces each, but well. It's not a big deal which is why I said I felt embarrassed for being so bothered and sounding rigid about this. To me "Sometimes one would like some extra blueberry tart" is selfish when it means others won't get any at all, but I'm aware you don't really owe anything to strangers in a restaurant and no one ever died from a dessert shortage. I think it's the kind of very small no-stakes issue that might lead to disproportionate differences of opinion.

i need quackity rejection angst, like imagine a read asking alex out and he said no and she has to see him everyday and or stream with him often

Thanks for the request!

Quackity Imagine: 'Cause only love can hurt like this.

You and Alex were friends, you went to events together, you streamed together... He was so easy to like, you know?! Like, a gentleman with you and everyone around you, and it made you like him. It made you fantasise for nights your days with him being yours.

After a long talk with Tina, Cellbit and Foolish, you decided to ask him out. They said he'd accept, and to be honest, you thought he'd to.

It was a rainy day when you went to his house to stream, and before the stream, you decided to ask. "Are you okay? You seem to be a little nervous today." Alex says to you. It was one of the reasons why you felt in love with him: he used to notice you.

"Yeah, uhm.. Alex, can I ask you somethin'?!" You say and he nods, stopping what he's doing to look at you. "I.. Do you want to go on a date with me?!" You ask, and Alex is looking at you a little bit shocked, the boy closes his eyes and sighs. "Shit." He whispers, opening his eyes again and facing you. "Look, Y/N... I, I'm sorry, I don't see you like this, okay?!" He says, and you feel your cheeks burn in embarrassment and sadness. With all your friends saying that Alex seemed to like you, you started to believe, and now your heart was in pieces and you couldn't even go home to cry. You had to stream with him.

"Yeah, I.. Where was I with my head to think you'd like me, anyway?!" You try to joke around, but your laugh is almost a sob and your voice trembles with the pain of the rejection.

"Hey, I... I'm sorry, Y/N. I'll give you five minutes to open the stream, okay?!" He says and leaves. Great. You can't help yourself but cry, tryin' not to sob, trying not to make any noises, tryin' not to let all the pain out of your chest because if you do, you won't stop cryin' easily. "Are you better?!" Alex appears after five minutes and you get a little angry with his insensibility. "Yes." You say, sitting on the fuckin' chair in front of his computer. "Let's do this live, please. I just want to leave." You say, Alex sits next to you, a little upset, you can read it in his face. It's all over his beautiful fuckin' face. "I hope this doesn't stay between us like this." He says and you look at him. "At least on live." He says. It's unbelievable. How can he be such a dick?!

"I..." You start, but you don't even finish it. You're so fuckin' sad, Alex rejected you and now he's being so insensible with your feelings. "Let's do it." He says when he sees you won't say anything. You stare him with a "I can't believe in you" face and keep staring when he smiles to the camera, starting to say "Hi" to chat. "Hiii, chat! How's everyone doing?!?"

Alex touches your thigh to "wake you up" and smile to you, you look at the camera with a forced smile on your face. "Hi, chat!" You don't even recognise your own voice anymore. "I'm here today with Y/N and we'll play games we used to play in our childhood!" He says. "Are you excited, Y/N?!" He asks you. "Yes." You say, not even tryin' to hide your disappointment with Alex's reaction to all that.

The live was a nightmare, of course that your both fans noticed you were sad. That you weren't in conditions to stream, that you and Alex... At the end of the live, your name and his was on trending topics of Twitter and your phone was full of messages of Cellbit, Tina, Foolish and even Bagi and Philza. "Thank you for the effort." You hear Alex's ironic voice. He's full of poison to attack you right now. "Our names are on trending topics of Twitter because you can't even fake a laugh."

"I just asked you out because I fuckin' love you and you rejected me, Alex! Do you want me to be happy?! Or to be able to fake a laugh?! Sorry, I'm not a fuckin' psycho." You get up from your chair, tears blur your vision as you walk away from his office. "It's not the end of the world, Y/N!"

"What part of 'I love you' you didn't understand, Alex?!" You turn around to face him, Alex stops in front of you. "You're such a dick, dude."

"Just because I said 'no' to your invitation?! Of a date?!" He asks. "No, Alex! Because of your insensibility! All you did was dehumanise me since I asked you out!"

"I'm sorry, but I don't know what to do, Y/N! Do you want me to hug you?! To say 'you'll find someone that loves you back, princess!'?!" He almost yells at you. "You should've done it, you should've cancelled the fuckin' stream, you should've talked to me about it!"

"Well, I'm sorry I didn't do it! I just felt suffocated with the fact my friend wants to have a date with me." He says and you roll your eyes. "How old are you?! Six?!"

"Fuck you, Y/N." He says, upset. "Fuck you, Alex. I can't believe it!" You start to sob and sit on the sofa. For some reason, you still think Alex will come to hug you, you still want him to. You still think he'll whisper "it's okay" in your ear as he consoles you for the damage he caused on you. It might be tragic, but it's better than listen to him grabbing your belongings and putting it on your bag. You get up and wipe your tears away, Alex gives you your bag and you look at him. "I see you tomorrow for the next stream?!" He asks, and the desire of punching him on the face only grows.

"No, Alex. I won't be streaming with you anymore, or being friends with you." You whisper, Alex seems to be confused and sad for the first time in this situation. "And... What? I..."

"Can I leave?! You wanted me to, anyway." You ask. "Wait, what about our streams?! What about QSMP?! And our lore?!" He asks. "Are you really worrying about that, Alex?!" You ask. It's unbelievable. "I'm out of QSMP and you can do your lives and lores by yourself!"

"No, but that's what defines our friendship! I don't want to stop being friends with you, Y/N!" He says. "Can I leave?!" You ask, upset. "Sure." Alex whispers and opens the door for you. You leave his apartment without even turning around to look at him, you hear the boy slam the door and a couple of tears fall from your eyes.

You couldn't believe, your heart was broken because of Alex. You thought that, at least, he'd be nice with you, but not even that, you know?! He sent you a lot of messages, but you decided to block him, unfollow him on social media and not even speak about him on live.

You felt in love with the wrong person. Alex could never love you the way you loved him.

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoy the writing! :)

Requests are open!

[sparring-spirals]

I got to say I really liked the episode (despite only having watched exu calamity of the exu series) and I think maybe Matt needed a breather after so many fast paced, lore filled episodes.

however, I am kinda bummed that the fcg processing has been put on hold for (at least) two weeks now and that means that, despite them being great actors that truly merge with their characters at the table, their reactions will be much less raw and there’s a chance some of them will forget tidbits of information, emotions they felt when it happened because they (as role players) will have had time to process it out of the game and it might create a dissonance in the game. tbf I kind of felt the difference even between the end of ep 91 and the beginning of 92 but it made sense because technically they were still running and couldn’t afford to process. idk. I have hope that we’ll still see that raw emotion, but I fear it won’t be as impactful as it could’ve been, especially if they’ll have to put the “reporting for duty” hat on immediately when they get to the camp

I think being a little bummed about the sort of unexpected hiatus on the Bell's Hells/Post F.C.G processing is super understandable! As someone who also really did enjoy the Crownskeepers return (hello im still yelling about Opal internally), I'm kind of in the same camp of being kind of thrown/disappointed about not getting to really dig into/sit with the Bell's Hells post-F.C.G loss. Like, LOVED the Crownkeepers, fascinating second half, kind of meh on the specific timing.

I'm holding my reservations about whether they're going to have to keep running/moving once we return to their portion of the story, since hey, until it happens (or doesn't!), we don't know, so I don't feel like getting too in my head about it until then.

That said! I do think that in general the cast puts characterization and staying true to the emotions of the character/story as a very high priority within the campaign. I think you're right that it won't be the exact same as if they had done a big emotional blowup/goodbye/processing scene in the same ep where they lost F.C.G, or immediately after. I don't think that means it has to be less impactful, just that- yeah, they'll have had more time to actually think/process it.

But they're also all professional voice actors who have, IMO, thus far shown how much they think about the inner lives of their characters and enjoy really digging deep into the emotional/interpersonal aspects of roleplay.

My assumption (my hope?) is that with additional time to think about + process a devastating/deeply emotional loss for their character(s), they'd choose to lean into that more, and not less. It wont be the same as the immediate raw reactions, thats true! But i dont think that means it has to be less impactful, even if they (as people) have had more time to process, and will be choosing how their characters, fresh off the loss, react. I dont think thats a guarantee it will be less impactful/emotional (maybe the additional thinking would actually enhance the reactions being true/insightful to the characters vs gut reactions from cast), but it will be different.

But if the cast chooses to lean into the heartbreak/emotions, and the circumstances of the BH in the upcoming ep enable it, I'm sure they can still kick my ass (emotionally), timeskip or not.

In general, I'm cautiously optimistic about what could happen next! Even if I don't love the timing thus far. I think there's still plenty of ways for me to get what I'm hoping for wrt F.C.G/BH. :] There are plenty of ways for me to get let down too, probably, but until it happens, or doesn't, I'm opting to not get too doomery about it. We'll see.

I uh. Hope that helps? A bit? Being bummed about specific things you were hoping for being off the table is totally reasonable. just hoping to lend an alternate way of viewing it, if desired.

(i wrote the sentence: "don't be lamenting your chickens before they hatch" and then went "what the fuck" out loud. i spent 4 hours at work today just doing systems diagramming and my brain is fried. clearly. keeping this here for my own entertainment.)

#im kind of tired im sorry if this makes no sense lmao. i appreciate the ask! sorry if my answer comes off as flippant. i do get where you're #coming from and wanted to share how im personally choosing to approsch it haha #critical role #cr spoilers #c3e92 #bell's hells #spar speaks #ask away! #speculation #fcg #imo its like how we probably wont be getting situations like marisha shellshocked live tweeting after jester saved beau with a cupcake #but we get the cast doing sneaky little tweets before the episode airs but after theyve already experienced it #different for sure. doesnt have to be worse. thats more up to personal opinion i think #i fully wrote that chicken thing and went. thats the idiom right. and then stared at it and went. ... no. its not. #should i have waited to answer this ask? maybe. but oh well. #i should probably get some sleep though

|| welcome fellow Ghoul fuckers ily

|| notes: sequel to [this], got nothin' to really say beyond reader and Cooper make the most fucked up implied pseudo parents for Lucy lmao, Canon somewhat compliant, post s1, gonna have to wait for the prequel meeting dic to know why reader knows Coop's whole name

|| warnings: weapons supplier!reader, Canon typical gore/violence, something something save a horse ride a cowboy, NSFW ㅡ fingering, edging (i had to take a lap around my house), irradiated cream pie, unprotected sex (supposedly those swimmers are FRIED but I can dream),

The low croak of a crow echoes over the barren stretch of sunbaked, irradiated earth ㅡ and the creature itself lands on the bent, rusted post of a long gone sign. Tilts its head this way and that, blinks liquid black eyes ㅡ three of them. Then squawks indignantly when a bullet narrowly misses it, jet black wings flaring as it takes to the sky to complain in that low, creaking voice.

"Get lost," you tell the bird, glancing at the way Dogmeat tracks the creature. Then she whines, licks at her muzzle like she wants to go catch and eat the damn thing.

"Don't even think about it, pup." You inform her, soothing the disappointment with rough scratches to her head that have her nudging for more before you walk away, sharp whistle summoning her to your side. You don't know why, but she's taken a shine to you over your companions, and you're not about to push her away.

The set up for tonight isn't far off, but it's the skitter of some other creature off in the distance paired with the ominous rumble from above that gets your attention ㅡ and you click your tongue at the foreboding, electric green that rolls in the clouds, cracking with lightning. It isn't nightfall yet, but it's growing closer with that mess on the horizon.

There's a pitiful attempt at a fire being made by Lucy when you return, and she offers a smile that you echo briefly before moving to Cooper's side, nudging him with your boot. "Storm's rollin' in."

He grunts, tugs his hat from where he'd been shading his face ㅡ pretending to sleep to ignore Lucy's still-attempting-to-be-friendly rambles, you suppose. "How far out?"

You shrug, slinging your pack back onto your shoulders. "About an hour, give or take."

Lucy flicks a confused look to both of you as Cooper gets to his feet as well, and her head tilts. "Why're we moving?"

You raise an eyebrow. "You want radiation sickness, vaultie?" It's worth it for the way she bristles, and you snicker. "Come on. There's something of a building not far from here."

You're kind enough to wait for her unlike Cooper, who heads off with Dogmeat while you trail with Lucy.

The building was probably an apartment complex at one point for the squared off, honeycomb like interior, the sections that remain halfway decent.

The presence of scattered, long empty supply packaging ranging from stimpacks to tins of cram says that you aren't the first to be here though, and you split off with Cooper to scout out the place, leaving Lucy with Dogmeat.

You're just as quick with tongue and trigger as Cooper ㅡ Lucy has learned that the hard way over the last week or so. But there's still a softness to you that Lucy likes, gravitates towards ㅡ and figure that Cooper likes it too, for the way she spots him watching you sometimes, pretends not to notice when he looks up and glares at her.

"Clear," you report, pulling her from her thoughts as you toss her a bedroll and a spare blanket. Where you got them, she doesn't know. And the dark stains of what absolutely is most likely blood tells her she doesn't want to know.

What she does know is that she's allowed what constitutes as a room to herself ㅡ three walls and a roof that won't cave in are enough for her to take it without complaint. Dogmeat goes with her, and when she looks up, she knows why with the unspoken way you and Cooper split off for the same little room a couple broken spaces down from hers.

"Get some rest, Lucy," you tell her, offer a small smile that makes her beam as she settles down for the night, deciding that she is far, far better off not thinking about just how close you and Cooper actually are.

"Cute kid," you remark as you finally trail into the room after Cooper, earning an amused scoff.

"Fuckin' annoying is what she is," he grouses, and it's your turn to laugh as you shrug off your pack and kneel, digging for your own bedroll.

"Considering that's what you called me when we first metㅡ"

"No, I called you an annoying bitch."

"Potayto, potahto." You tug the bedroll free and roll it out, blinking as Cooper settles himself over it with a groan and then a sigh. "Excuse me."

He peers up at you. "What now?"

"This is my bed." You snip, jerking a thumb over your shoulder. "Up, Cooper."

"Nah." He folds his arms behind his head. "You like the vaultie so much, go cuddle up with her."

You stare. "Cooper Howard," you say, "if I didn't know better, I'd think you were jealous of the kid." He's silent, and you raise an eyebrow. "Are you?"

"No." The words is sharp, and he lifts his head to eye you. "Don't need to be jealous when I know what's mine," he rasps, "now quit bitchin' and c'mere."

You don't know what it says that you do so without fuss, settling yourself to straddle his hips as he sits up, draping your arms over his shoulders.

"There," you snip, adjusting to flick at the rim of his hat. "Better?"

He watches you with eyes as dark as an oil spill, and you don't miss the flick to your mouth and back up. "Gettin' there."

You snort. "You know," you murmur, tone dropping lower, "if you wanted to kiss me, all you gotta do is ask."

He smirks, the flash of his teeth. "Where's the fun in that, sugar? I like the chase. Besides," he lowers his tone, leans in further, "you're the one bitchin' when we can share this sad excuse for a bed. And the way I see it, you're gettin' the better deal anyways."

You roll your eyes, act like you're annoyed ㅡ but the way you don't tell him to shove it or get off of him speaks volumes enough.

Poetically, it starts raining just as you kiss him. The fingertip drum of it on the roof, sour-sweet smell of it that still reaches you because this isn't a real bedroom, just some shitty excuse for it. Doesn't matter, because this is far better than the kisses you've stolen over the last few days when you're absolutely certain Lucy isn't watching either of you.

Cooper seems to think so too for the way he deepens the kiss, cups your face as he nips at your lower lip and licks into your mouth when they part.

He squeezes at your hips, snakes his fingers back under your shirt, pinches and tugs and maps until you're squirming in his lap as he shoves your shirt off completely. He pulls, coaxes you into an arch that lets him mouth at your ribs, nip and sow sparks of pleasure in your veins as he leaves little patches of bruised pink skin in his wake.

He likes marking you, he realizes, the subtle claim without him having to say it. Mine.

He welcomes the grind of your hips against his, your body soft in all the ways that his isn't, filling in the cracks and rounding out all his sharp edges until he can't think of anything but getting his hands on you properly.

The pop of the button on your jeans is easy, the slip of his hand deliberate ㅡ you're louder this time, covered by the storm above as you whine and moan and buck into his hand and the sinful, clever work of his fingers.

And then just as you're about to crest that wave of pleasure, he stops. Smirks at the way you glare, taps your nose with his other hand. "You know you don't get nothin' for free around here, sugar."

He's teasing though, pushes you back to work his belt open, pants down ㅡ then dragging you back over him. Groans, tips his head back at the teasing glide of you before he's adjusting to line himself up and guiding you down.

The gasp he gets is music to his ears, nearly lost to the gutteral, hissed noise he makes himself at the tight, warm squeeze of you around his length. His eyes roll, and he bucks his hips up.

"C'mon sweet thing," he rasps, "don't make me do all the work. Ride for me."

The rhythm is stilted for the way he grips your hips anyways, reluctant to let you pull off of him too much ㅡ but it still feels good. Your breath matches the staccato movement, hands splayed on his chest for balance and head thrown back, looking for all the world like some sort of dedication to a long gone diety that he'd gladly worship to the end.

And he does still, reverence to the way he touches, kisses, bites ㅡ throbbing vitality in your veins calling to him, sweet siren song wrapped in those plush lips of yours. Soft skin squeezed under his fingers, forgiving for all the ways he can't be gentle, desperate as he is.

It's the throttled clamp of your warmth that says you're coming undone, gooey and wet and warm in all the right ways that has him clutching at you, cursing as his hips jerk and he fills you, mouthing at your pulse point as he does.

Heavy breathing sets the undertone of the roll of thunder outside crumbling walls, rapid beat of two hearts, and there's something dangerously soft, romantic in the way he lets you melt into him.

You drape over him, whisper soft kisses to his cheek, his jaw, his mouth until he kisses you back, slowly, selfishly, dangerously sweet.

"You," he tells you, "are absolutely no good for me." He slings an arm over your waist, softens the bite until it's nonexistent.

After all, what's one more vice?

ㅡ

In the morning, the four of you leave ㅡ there's a lot of ground to cover, after all. Lucy walks beside you, Dogmeat and Cooper just a few feet ahead.

"So," she begins conversationally, "what're those marks on your neck from?"

To your credit, you neither flinch nor blush, busy yourself with fussing with something at your hip. "Mosquitos."

Lucy hums. "That's funny, didn't realize mosquitos got so big. Best be careful then, huh?"

Tutoring

paring: Yuji Itadori × fem!reader

summary: Yuji is not the best student so that's why, he begs you to tutor him.

warning: Sukuna; short one

"Can you tutor me, Y/n?" Yuji Itadori asked as he stood infront of you. "Huh? Why?"

"You're like, the smartest girl I know!!" Deadpanning at his reason as to why to tutor, you sighed and continued walked further to your dorm room ready to call it a day even if there are lots of hours to go before it would be time to sleep. Yuji being Yuji, he followed like a lost puppy behind you.

"I told you, I won't help you study." You looked back and said annoyed. You wanted to say more but then a snicker was heard, "See, even that girl doesn't want to help you, brat." Sukuna laughed at his vessel.

With that, Yuji looked down in shame and disappointment. When he was about to make his way to his own room, you pulled his uniform and without saying, pulled him into your dorm room.

"HUH?? Y/n, what are you doing??" The boy asked confused. "Tutoring you. Now sit down and get your stuff." You tell him as he smiles back to you in a thankful way ss if to say 'than you'.

____________________________________________

Three hours later and you feel like you have two have made a progress and that your study partner was finally understanding. It's not that Yuji is dumb bit he for sure isn't the smartest. Even Goji knew that, which is why...

"Say Y/n.." Your teacher began to say, "would you willingly teach Yuji?" He finished his question and gave you a puppy look as if it would work on you.

Looking back at him deadpanning, you answered with a short and harsh 'no'. As you were planning to walk to the training place Gojo grabbed ypur shoulder and continued but this time in a more serious way. "He is new here and a new start in the middle of the year is hard on him. I promise you, he will be thankful of your help." Instead of the usual annoying pleading face of your teacher, he was smiling softly and let go of ypur shoulder. He hoped you would be there to guide Yuji Itadori.

"Yuji... you should know that if there is something you need help with, we are all here." You wispered suddenly after the concentrating silence and the boy looked astonished at your remark.

"But didn't you just earlier told me that you don't want to help me-" "Be quiet"

Even after you were acting so mean, he knew that deep down you were always there for him and he would treasure you and every second of your time spend with him. Looking back at you he realized he was thankful to have met you.

"Don't look at me! Continue with your work" You say annoyed. "But I don't wannt to anymoreee" He childishly said.

As a plural person, the whole thing with the possibility of Cell being like another consciousness in Cellbit, being unleashed and killing workers, being something to suppress and fight against and such...well it's a thing that bothers me, I guess?

Cellbit is trying to be a good person. A better person. Sure he is angry at the Federation, he wants to take them down and see them burn, he want them to fail, but he didn’t want to fight the last time we saw him. He just wanted to rest and get his family back. And now all these murders are happening making it seem like he did it, or Cell did without Cellbit being conscious of it.

Like for other people they can just say it’s a classic horror trope and leave it at that. Fun thing, mystery ramping up, reveal the true culprit is you but not exactly, maybe eventual battle in the centre of the mind. Not really reinventing the wheel here.

I don't really know if the admins or cc!Cellbit himself is aware how harmful the trope can be to people that experience that sort of thing, living with multiple consciousnesses in one body is already hard enough at times...so I don't really want to lean into the interpretation that it is Cell acting out the killings. But then again, it's just another drop in the bucket if it is.

I dunno...just thoughts from a plural person

#qsmp cellbit #qsmp #qsmp liveblog #mcyt #acuteliveblogs #personally why I'm sticking to the interpretation that it's someone framing him #to be clear I'm not angry or disappointed or anything #if it ends up being the case I will still find some enjoyment there #though if they spin it to eventually lead to Cell and Cellbit kind of ending up healing and such that'll be really nice #but I'll just sit and wait and watch #i love cellbit as a storyteller and i like what the admins are doing #but i won't really place any expectation whether they can handle it well as a story point and arc #if they do great if they don't that's alright too #i am chilling we are chilling out

[ineffablefool]

I think that everyone who puts together a Good Omens con with in-person elements, and doesn't include vigorous mitigation options including but not limited to a fully enforced mask mandate, should pay every medically-vulnerable member of the fandom five bucks.

Inclusion is hard and inconvenient and you don't wanna do it. I get it. We're being left behind so you can have more fun. But if you're not gonna look me right in the eyes (metaphorically) and tell me "you are not worth the bother to include", then you could at least buy me a goddamn consolation coffee. (Or send five bucks to your local food pantry in my name, whatever. But other excludees might still want the coffee.)

(I'd be very interested in seeing the science which leads to the conclusion that covid will be over by such and such date, thus rendering my concerns obsolete. Otherwise, completely skipping over any kind of planning almost feels like a gamble which you have decided is worth it because it's not like you lose anything if your medically-vulnerable fellow fans end up excluded from all your super awesome fun in-person events.)

I've just realized they did that to Peter two times! They made him guilty of what he's done when he wasn't in his right mind/conscious of his actions. But Jackson was clearly a victim, hm?

#I'm not salty #More like a little disappointed #Like #I think they (the characters) treat him like this because he's not stupid #He won't let anyone see his weaknesses so they don't see him as a real person #In a way #In s1 this lack of trust and empathy was perfectly justified #Those were scared kids and this mean guy was scaring and hurting them #and was much more in the know than them #So even tho I can see his reasoning I don't have a problem with him being a villain #But s4? #Nah #They actually made him work with Kate so we would also stop trusting him #Because it never was about morals #It was about trust #They were only waiting for the opportunity to get rid of Peter because they didn't trust him AND he was smart #Even tho he helped them so many times #Damn my bias is showing XD #teen wolf #peter hale

it's really really hard to fire people in the uk! there needs to be unequivocal proof of misconduct, and the burden is very much on the company to prove this.

i think this is partly why in f1 you hear about people being "pushed out" and not fired, they resign under pressure. i'm fairly certain the eu has very similar laws to the uk in this regard.

for a top employee to be fired it often has to be gross misconduct rather than misconduct, or for misconduct it has to be a pattern of behaviour that hasn't changed over time despite it being addressed.

all this to say, if horner is fired, it's either that red bull suddenly decided to be on the side of the righteous and address historical reports of abuse of power (unlikely), or he was finally stupid enough to be recorded doing it. given how it's being talked about i think it's most likely to be of the shouty/sweary abusive persuasion - think malcolm tucker - than anything more sinister

sorry for answering a bit late, but thank you for providing very useful and insightful information. i think his behaviour over the years is enough proof that he should not be in any position of authority or power and these allegations (whether they're true or not) just further cemented my opinion. regardless of the verdict, i believe that he should be suspended while this is going on. and even if he turns out to be innocent, it's a huge taint on his name, career and redbull's brand, so i do think, there will be consequences for him, that the public won't be aware of.

#anti christian horner #i think even though rbr is trying to seem like they want to handle this professionally #the fact that he's not being suspended until all is clear just proves that we won't get a fair verdict #powerful man tend to get away with shit like this so i will be disappointed but not at all surprised #when the verdict will say that he's entirely innocent

this has been said many times by many people over the past couple of years, but im only invested in ozzie fizz and verosika. why did my brain hyperfixtate on the lust ring and literally not give a shit about anyone else? no clue! all i know is i expect the next few eps to do them dirty and i kinda wish i could adopt them as ocs at this point

Hey, I've kinda done that with a canon character too! I'd say go right ahead; those are your babies now. Canon can't touch them /lh

But yeah, your concerns are valid, Anon. I was so excited to hear Striker made a return in Western Energy only to witness such a character massacre. At this point, anyone with a S1 antagonist for a favorite might as well pray they don't show up again :")

And in regard to the "oddly specific hyperfixation regarding the show" part:

🤝

Same here, Anon. Same here

#confession #I've been into the Gluttony and Envy rings personally #also Wrath a little bit #not on such a canon character-focused level but like. OC centic stuff. general worldbuilding. as well as the various demon species #Gluttony could've had insect demons! and it disappoints me that it didn't! I get that Hellhounds are from there but we could've had both #as for the characters you've mentioned. Verosika HAS been said to have a way bigger role in the future #and thus far she's been quite consistently framed as The Bitch in spite of being a victim of Blitzo's jackassery #so. like I said. valid concerns in that regard #but the Fizz and Ozzie ep may be coming up very soon now and I'm real curious. we won't have to wait long to find out the degree of damage #though no matter what happens ignoring canon always remains an option. and often the wisest one 👍 #helluva boss #helluva critical

jimmy not even being capable of conceiving that kim might be bad for him vs jimmy immediately thinking she's leaving because only he's bad for her and ruined her life, therefore he goes on to ruin his as well

#the most fucked up thing about it if you ask me #also i always feel sad when great and beautiful love stories don't last long but that's only kinda my thing #it just makes me sad #and i am not sure they will or should or could get back together in the future #i honestly don't think they will but whatever #and i don't want to hope because i hate believing in something and then being disappointed i am far too emotional to do that #but the real tragedy here is that they broke up and: #1) jimmy won't be okay alone and will kim? we don't know #2) they really didn't understand each other in the end #bcs #bcs s6 spoilers #better call saul #jimmy mcgill #kim wexler #bob odenkirk #rhea seehorn #mcwexler #saul goodman #meta

Just because your personal headcanon doesn't line up with what happened in the actual book doesn't mean the book is bad/wrong. It just means the author wrote what they wanted and what is true to the character and not what you wanted.

You can make your guesses and yell all you want about what you think is right but canon is canon whether you like it or not. Your headcanon is not canon so rereading the actual books might be helpful to differentiate between what is true and what you made yourself believe is true. The author will always know their characters better than you think you do since those characters wouldn't exist without the author.

#gpost #fandom wank #just in general #people think criticizing the text is a whole ass personality trait. #it's why no one likes being part of anything anymore #but also this isn't for people who genuinely just have fun with things #because those people realize 'hey i'm going to crackship or make up things or fic or headcanon that I know would never happen' #'but I'm going to do it because it's fun without me bashing the author because they didn't do it in the book' #people these days always post with the 'I'm right and if you don't agree you're stupid' #and my gal pals #my hot mamas #we're on this website for no other reason than to be weird #also these books are never that deep and I'll keep shouting it from the rooftops #if y'all had fun just reading and enjoying the story for what it is the way the author writes the story FOR FUN #we'd enjoy this place so much more #this isn't some platform where we have cult leaders and 'influencers or some shit lmao #this is fucken fiction #biggest advice (and this is to myself first): except nothing so that way you won't be disappointed #I dont' even wanna think about what's next in terms of events/plots/ships because ya know what? #You never know. You really never know. #So I will take what I am given and either enjoy it or not. #sorry for this random rant on this fine Monday #but just been my thoughts lately.

i was thinking about how it took me a while to figure out i'm aegosexual (which basically means that there's a disconnect between yourself and being the subject of attraction) and i thought about how much i really dislike and just cannot see myself in slash reader fics. i tend to dislike these fics for multiple reasons, but some of them include that the reader self insert is usually really boring, has no personality outside of being lovey dovey and isn't unhinged enough for certain characters for reasons outside of contrasting personalities for my tastes (like spamton for example, why are you writing a normal protagonist to pair with fuckin spamton of all characters). but another reason is that i literally cannot connect myself to the reader self insert. like i cannot imagine myself in their place at all, it's always another stand-in that i imagine instead and thinking about myself in their place makes me uncomfortable. i can't see myself in their place because i don't see myself as a subject of attraction, and i'm repulsed to that idea. so i imagine someone else instead because that's better to me. and also because of the aforementioned reasons that have more to do with the writing of the self insert, i just cannot imagine myself acting the way the self insert does because I Personally Would Not Fucking Do That™. like i would not be romantically kissing a guy on a date, i would be infodumping about my special interests for 3 hours and then start ranting about how funny cars are while he just smiles and nods lmao

this is why i've never really self-shipped with any character. like i can be attracted to them and be like "i wanna hold his hand/kiss him/do inexplicable things to his psyche", but in reality i could never actually see myself as a subject of attraction by this character, so i'd either ship them with another character i like or imagine a sort of stand-in that has some of my traits and lives out my fantasies but still isn't me. i can fall in love but i can never connect because ew that's gross and weird. watching from the sidelines by reading fics and looking at fanart about characters being shipped with others and being intimate with each other is more my cup of tea.

#aegosexual #also i'm not like. sad about this or anything #maybe i'm a little disappointed that i probably won't experience some things but i'm not like. crying about it. #i literally don't care about it and i think i actually prefer it this way #being seen as something arousing is fucking disgusting and weird in a bad way to me and i don't think i should ignore how i feel just to- #-experience something i won't enjoy. #i just want to watch my little fictional men hold each other and kick my legs like an excited schoolboy about it in peace #also unpopular opinion but slash reader fics SUUUUUUCK and i'd rather read something else instead #now let's sit back and watch literally everyone get mad at that opinion lmao #i'm kidding i'm kidding you're obviously free to enjoy slash reader fics #i just find them to be completely unrelatable and i feel like throwing a self insert into the mix kinda ruins the whole dynamic for me #like i just personally find the idea of meddling in that character's life and being their hubby to be very unattractive #especially when the self insert is so barebones that there's no chemistry #we need more slash reader fics that are just an expression of how much the reader admires the character and nothing more i think #idk maybe i just haven't read enough slash reader fics to appreciate them as their own thing disconnected from me but i really just kinda- #-don't like them because the ones i've read were mostly kinda boring..... sorrgy #i always preferred projection anyway #although i do like dating sims. of course i don't attach myself to the MC but i do like them more than reader fics. i wonder why that is. #probably because the MC tends to have more character traits i guess? so then i can just consider them to be a different person- #-and i'm just pressing buttons for them #it's more free and directional i guess
