I LOVED UR GAMER SNK MEN HCS!! what about reader as a gamer 👀??

SNK MEN WITH GAMER!READER

starring: Eren, Jean, Armin, Connie, Porco, Reiner, Levi, Zeke

rating: mostly sfw! 18+

notes: Thanks so much for the request!! My first ask (‘: I added some of the other men because even though they might not understand video games, they can still support their partner hahah. Is there anyone else you guys would want to see included in these headcanons? Erwin? Bertholdt? Should I do some with the ladies? Let me know! Thanks for your continued support(:

EREN:

If you’re on the same team he’s supporting you 100%, doing whatever he can to help you out if you’re getting targeted or something

If you get killed? He’s going after the fucker who took you out at least ten times (or until you tell him it’s okay you’ve respawned!! He can chill!!)

But if you’re playing against him? Good luck because he’s going to target you hahah

He thinks it’s cute how whiny you get when he snipes you or gets you with his ultimate

“Sorry, (y/n), you gotta be better than that”

This man is so cocky oh lord

Secretly, when you get him back he gets so flustered? But you can’t tell because he just scoffs and tells you that he let you get him

Man’s is sportin a boner through under his desk lmao!! It’s hot seeing you take control what can I say

He invites you to the discord but then immediately regrets it because Jean will constantly try and talk about you

Jean is a homie! But he thinks you’re cool and it pisses Eren off whenever he asks you to check your dms so it’s a win-win (he just sends you memes lol)

Eren’s friends are all chill with you playing but he still likes to remind them that you’re dating

“Eren did you fucking set my house on fire” “that’s what you get for giving (y/n) a flower dumbass” “bro they needed it to make DYE you idiot”

You guys have a minecraft house together and it’s super cute! Eren will definitely let you decorate while he collects materials for you. Or you both will go on adventures together(:

If you’re playing alone he’s super supportive too! Totally down with you having time with your friends online

In between his matches with the boys he’ll come up behind you and kiss your head, not wanting to interrupt too much

But sometimes he’ll fully move your headset off of one ear and start backseat gaming

“You should use your ultimate after your teammate uses theirs. Theirs will freeze the enemy and then your pure damage will take them out… okay good now go over here and—“

After your matches he’s super affectionate ahhh

Wraps his arms around you from behind and plants a big ol’ kiss on your cheek

“M’girl did so good!!”

JEAN:

He’d be a touch cringey lmao

Insists on you both having his-and-hers desk-mats. Gives you a custom mousepad with a picture of you both on it for your birthday and the image turns out kind of wonky

He’s be heartbroken if you don’t use it though!! So you better

One day you come home and he’s rearranged half the apartment so you can have a gaming room together with your desks facing each other

But this ends terribly bc he can be too loud sometimes and he gets distracted by you

Invites you to the discord and then asks you privately if you can coordinate your nicknames online to be like “his (y/n)” and “her Jean” AA

The others never stop giving him shit for it

But he loves you! And he’s so glad you have this hobby in common

Might get a little salty about you playing with your friends without him

If you have a full team that’s fine!! But if he finds out you have a random on your team…

“Why didn’t you ask me to join?” “Babe you were in the middle of your own match!!” “So? I could have quit and joined >:(“

Probably super friendly with your friends and playgroup! Will happily hop on and play with y’all and he behaves himself

Not oblivious to the fact that some of your friends might think he’s cute/flirt with him a little bit?? But he’s confused because he has you so why are they talking to him like that

Doesn’t confront them but shuts them down respectfully(:

“No I can’t give you flowers because these ones are for (y/n) I’m surprising her with them because I love her!! I’m sure you can find your own though(:”

If you’re playing DOTA or League together he’s still garbage :( sorry hahah

Gets flustered by playing with you and then fucks up more

“Babe, can you come help me? The guys keep ganging up on me”

But he is SO PROUD OF HIMSELF whenever he can help you out!!

“Don’t worry, princess, I’ve got your back” “Dude you died four times just trying to get to (y/n)” “Shut the fuck up, Connie”

While you’re gaming you’ll reach for your drink and see it’s miraculously filled up? And there’s a little piece of your favorite candy next to it? You turn around and just see Jean sneaking back over to his desk oh lord

ARMIN:

surprise surprise, he is a total sweetheart

You two probably play a lot together just the two of you before he invites you the join their discord?

He just thinks there’s something really intimate about you both playing games together, without others

And you still definitely do that!! Armin would be the type of guy who would invite you to play games with him hahah

“Hey, (y/n)? I was wondering if you’d want to maybe play Civ 6 with me tomorrow night? Maybe we can make dinner together beforehand!”

He is the best player 2 when you guys play games, especially story games!

But similar to Eren, if you guys are on opposite teams he will show no mercy :)

“Sorry! I can’t help it” “Armin you literally CAN you’re looking for me to kill me” “oops! I’ll go easy on you, my bad!”

He never goes easy on you

He’s the best player out of his friends but he probably isn’t on every night like Eren and Connie are hahah. The nights he is on though he’s on all night!

If you stay up with him, expect super lazy mornings where you slip out of bed past noon and make pancakes together

Expect super lazy afternoon-sex where he just kind of lies on top of you LMAO, gently holds you and cradles you underneath him as he buries his face into your neck, you’re both so tired from a night of gaming but he loves getting to spend that time with you

If he’s reading or doing homework and you’re gaming, he leaves you be!

He thinks it’s important to have privacy and alone time (and he’s right)

But he’ll also come up to you after your game ends, put his hands on your shoulders and ask how your match went!

If you ask him to coach you during a match he’s actually super supportive and helpful? Unlike if you’re playing a co-op game with him hahah

He also probably likes getting to train you and teach you! He wants you to be the best(:

If he’s feeling particularly clingy he’ll just move a chair to sit next you your gaming desk and read next to you lmao

Not even talking or distracting you! He just finds the keyboard clicks and your voice calming

Okay I want to make random college headcanons for the boys should I ever write a fic, and Armin would also make models?? I’m thinking warhammer or DnD ones (DnD with the squad headcanons? 👀) imagine him with a headlamp and big ol’ glasses so he can get a detailed paint job!

And he’d custom make a model of your main in their costume and surprise you with it on your anniversary! It takes him weeks to make :')

CONNIE:

omg he’d be an ass

You know those memes about the pick me characters? He’d jokingly accuse you of that

“Idk do you really know how to play COD? Or are you just trying to hang with the bros” “Connie I literally kicked your ass last night what do you mean” “Fair point”

Probably just teases you a lot during the games in general

“Babe if you press Q while holding your diamond pickaxe it’ll make you mine obsidian faster” “Wait (y/n) don’t that’ll throw your pickaxe into the la—"

Seconds later: *conniespringaa tried to swim in lava*

In a match those he’s actually the most supportive I’d argue? He totally lets you do your thing, whereas Armin and Eren might still have you try and follow their lead

“Where you goin’, mama? Damn atta girl! I’ve gotcha, don’t worry (y/n)” literally just follows you around the map to be backup and to hype you up!

In my last set of hcs Connie was a streamer! If you also streamed he’d be obsessed with doing those fun collabs with you

Either that or he’d be like “ew guys this weirdo is trying to join my discord call rn lemme see what she wants— hello? Do I know you? Always happy to meet a fan but how did you get my discord?”

Idk why he thinks pretending he doesn’t know you is the funniest thing ever?? You guys start a new match with his friends and suddenly he spends the whole game chirping at you

“Damn mama where have you been all my life? You got a man? Why don’t you let me get your number, I bet you look fine as hell in real life” “Connie if you don’t shut the fuck up right now I’m going to lose it”—Eren

He’s so much fun to play story games with though! I’m thinking Detroit: Become Human

He’ll sit next to you and let you control things and he’ll do voices for the characters (he’ll even turn down the game voices so he can impersonate the characters instead)

Makes Connor and the other androids it sound like literal robots, add in extra comments, etc

Honestly I think Connie would be the best at voices? He does super great impressions of his friends and will share them a lot on discord while you’re all playing minecraft, to their dismay :)

Sometimes if he isn’t playing with you he’ll just send you a DM asking you to stream so he can watch? So cute

Too embarrassed to ask you in person but you just got used to streaming on discord now so he can hop on and watch from his computer

PORCO:

I feel like he’s pretty independent when it comes to gaming ngl so when he finds out you are a gamer he just kind of like “oh word? Cool”

Since he plays a lot of games like FIFA and GTA, he usually plays those while you do your thing

Idk why but I also feel like he would be the type of guy to have a spotless apartment? Takes pride in his cleanliness so he’s usually cleaning the apartment while you game

Which is okay with him! He likes hearing you talk to your friends

To him, gaming is kind of his thing to do when he wants to be alone? Even when he’s playing with other people it’s kind of like his private time

So when you’re playing with your friends he lets you have space!

He and Jean are probably the two gamers who would want to spend more time with you outside of the apartment doing things anyway!

But if you want to play with him he’s totally down!

He’s a pretty casual gamer but you can still expect him to get heated, especially if he thinks someone is targeting you or cheating

“No, Porco it’s okay! I made a bad play that’s all” “no (y/n) there’s no way he could have hit you from there, something’s going on”

He will make dinner while you’re gaming and surprise you with it after your match! Even though you can smell it from your desk lmao

“C‘mon, dummy, it’s getting cold,” he’ll call out and gestures to the chair he’s holding out for you

He scoots you in once you’ve sat and he asks you about how your matches are going

If you lost he’ll slide your dessert away from you and then say “sorry, winners only” 😐😐

He’s still not the most active when it comes to their DOTA or League games, but he invites you in to play with his friends so it’s okay!

Eventually he starts to insists on you being in their discord call while they’re playing just so that he can talk to you while you’re playing your own solo game or something!

Don’t get me wrong he still likes his private gaming time and thinks you deserve your own gaming time! But he quickly warms up to the idea of you being together and sharing that time together

REINER:

Okay I love Reiner to pieces yeah? But this man does not understand video games before he meets you

He just doesn’t understand the point??

“Why not just go outside and do something, love?”

He’ll comfort you if you get emotional playing a game like the Last of Us, but then he’ll ruin it by saying “I mean, they’re all dead when you think about it, yeah? They've never actually been alive! They’re not real, sweetie”

But he’s trying to comfort you I promise

I think if there was a game you could get him to play it would be a Dark Souls/Elden Ring type game! I think the dramatic music and fight scenes would pique his interest as he walks past your desk

After watching you fight Malenia or something he says he’ll give it a try

And then he loses to the Tree Sentinel and you have to comfort him. “Babe, that’s kind of the point, you have to go and level up first!” He thought he could impress you oh lord

Otherwise he’d love to watch you play Stardew Valley! Loves the characters and thinks that the heart events are super special

You might be able to convince him to start his own game of Stardew Valley, but he’s busy a lot and feels guilty about ‘abandoning them’, so he prefers to watch you play!

Will also cook you dinner and make sure your water is full while you play! He likes to watch you play and loves seeing you all happy when you’re winning

Sometimes he will try and hug you while you’re playing because he loves seeing you do something you love, but then you have to remind him that you’re in the middle of a game!

“So how was your game!” “It was good! Eren always plays aggro so he took most of the attention away from me!” “There’s a character named Eren in your game? Huh,” it takes him a second to understand that you’re playing with REAL PEOPLE

LEVI:

Just like Reiner (honestly all of these men who don’t understand video games) he doesn’t see the point? Like why not go outside and do something?

Kind of rolls his eyes at the games you play despite him not knowing about them

But he secretly takes pride in the fact that you’re sometimes the one taking control and bossing the others around

He’ll hear you tell Eren to shut up so you can focus and he’ll sneak behind you and peer over your head, maybe smooth out your hair a bit to let you know he’s there

You can talk to him about your games and he’ll listen but he’ll definitely not understand any of it

He’ll respond with a lot of “Ah”s and “Oh, I see” and “..is that good or bad?”

Silently brings you tea when you’re playing late and will usually stay up reading on the couch while you do! He’s a classy guy, likes to go to bed with you

Sometimes he’ll fall asleep on the couch so you have to wake him up :(

He just kind of shuffles over and wordlessly invites you to sleep with him there, cradled in his arms on the couch

I don’t think there’s any way you could get him to play a video game though, sorry

This is Levi Ackerman, who doesn’t understand how twitter works hahah

If you get upset over a loss he doesn’t really know how to comfort you, but he’ll kind of sneak over and mutter something like “that kid’s a bastard anyway” and kiss your head

ZEKE:

Will straight up tell you to go outside and touch grass if he thinks you’ve been inside too long

He’ll pick you up from your desk and try and carry him out to go on a walk with him or something after a match lmao!

Will ask you what is so exciting about your games and why you’d rather do that than do something with him :( poor Zeke

But he just says those kinds of things to get a rise from you lmaoo! He’s glad you have some hobby because it lets him also have private time, like Porco I think Zeke would like some space to do his own thing every now and then

Or maybe he’s just busy and glad you can keep yourself busy? I headcanon him to be going into a medical field like his dad! So Dr. Jaeger knows that you won’t be too lonely while he’s at work

You can get him to play surgeon simulator when he’s in a good mood. He thinks it’ll be easy. Ooh boy

He doesn’t become addicted or anything but when he fails, he insists that he can do it and he’s trying again. And again. And again.

Genuinely likes seeing you have a hobby and is impressed with your ability to balance your responsibilities and have time to unwind with a game

Likes to see you kill Eren in whatever game you’re playing, even minecraft hahah

Judges you for playing animal crossing though? Sorry he thinks it’s a kids game?

“…So you owe the raccoon money, huh?” 😐

You tell him he’d be a grumpy villager and he ruffles your hair before walking away with a huff hahah

Thanks again for the ask and your support! Ngl my ex boyfriend was a shitty gamer like he would ignore me a lot so this is my therapy now, imagining better gamer boyfriend scenarios for my attack on titan men :) hahah but thanks again for reaching out I hope I did it justice!

As always, thanks for reading! Feel free to drop an ask for more!

I’ll send you one of my fave tropes and one of my least fave tropes for variety 😂. You can pick which one you wanna talk about

Fave trope: childhood friends-to-lovers

Least fave trope: whatever you call the flower shop owner X tattoo shop owner thing (i don’t like this trope because it usually very boring. Like there’s usually little to no plot besides the flower shop owner character going “oooo the neighbor has tattoos 😳” and a cringey overuse of flower language and I just don’t understand the appeal)

OKAY, so I already have an outline for childhood friends-to-lovers kimchay which I'll dig up later, so lets talk about flower shop x tattoo shop owner aus. My original thought was: Chay is the sunshine that runs the flowershop, Kim is the moody one who runs the tattoo parlor, Chay is all ohh ahh the neighbor has tattoos 😳, Kim is like ooh ahh the neighbor is very cute let me find an excuse to keep going over there and buy flowers. This would be a cute fic! But WHAT IF we flip the script and INSTEAD: Kim runs the flower shop. It's a front for money laundering because people are often paying in cash and flowers wilt unpredictably, so it's easy to mismanage the books. It's also a front for Kim, family assassin, to import and process poisonous flowers for the family. Chay runs the tattoo parlor next door - he specializes in whimsical tattoos. Most of his designs are puns: bees on your knees, cartoons of potted plants saying "leaf me alone". The kinds of things your parents would miserably ask you why you would get it if it doesn't even have meaning. Kim has a tattoo of a vine he's been adding to since he was a teenager. It started at his ankle, and has been working its way up his leg, thigh, and back. Each time he kills someone he adds a flower onto the vine, either representing the poison he used to kill them or something in flower language about why they deserved to die. His normal artist moved, died or otherwise became unavailable, so he goes to Chay's place. At first he decides it's not the right place for him to get this super meaningful tattoo, but Chay's art is beautiful and he proves he can do serious material as well.

So he goes in regularly to get murder tattoo added to, and slowly over the course of their sessions Kim begins to relax and fall in love with the way Chay laughs. Kim opens up about how he wanted to do something other than his current career. He once wanted to spend his life adding beauty to the world. He stops making poisons, he stops working assassination jobs. He starts singing again as he makes the bouquets in his shop. He still goes to see Chay, but he doesn't add any flowers to his tattoo. Instead he lets Chay doodle whatever comes to mind. Kim gets a cat on his ankle and stars on his neck, and lots of other things that are meaningless and silly and dumb, but really they're beautiful and they make him smile, so they're the most meaningful.

(send me a trope, maybe one you hate, and I'll tell you how I'll kimchay it)

This is just crack.

It did not take all that long for Eleanor to figure out that there was something strange about Hob. He is a lovely man and she considers herself lucky to call him her husband but some things are just not adding up.

Does finding out he is immortal make her freak out a little bit? Of course. It's the 16th century and she is definitely considering the possibility of Hob being a demon or having sold his soul to one. He doesn't seem like the type for it but who knows?

The crisis blows over fairly quickly because (1) he is an amazing husband (2) if demons are involved she is already damned by now so what's there to lose? and (3) based on what she hears from her friends this is the best sex anyone has ever had so.... fuck it. Literally. She'll fuck a demon if the demon is a good husband who is amazing in bed.

You cannot convince me Eleanor, one of Hob's greatest loves, was not also completely feral and unhinged. They were bisexual monsterfuckers before it was cool.

-🍃

Oh I am CONVINCED that the Gadlens were the most notoriously weird couple to ever live in Tudor England.

A husband??? Who loves his wife??? That’s totally unfashionable and cringey to all the other aristocratic folks. Even worse, he puts actual time and effort into spending time with his son, wtf. When the other lords ask him if he’s not worried that his wife has only given him the one heir he’s all like “oh actually I insisted we try to wait a while before having another one, having Robyn was very hard on her.” WEIRD, SUPER WEIRD.

Eleanor’s lady friends are secretly totally jealous of her. Her husband encourages her to do all kinds of things and doesn’t care if she has hobbies, and he’s super stoked when he finds out that she can read Latin and Greek. Eleanor has also hinted about him doing all kinds of interesting things with his mouth which frankly sound quite sinful but also very very enjoyable.

My favourite 1589 kinky headcanon is that the Gadlens were swingers who regularly took other people to bed. Also, cucking kink from both perspectives, they both loved watching each other get fucked. I just can’t imagine that 1589 Hob didn’t get regularly railed by Marlow. If Dream hadn’t fucked off with Shakespeare he totally could have had a kinky Tudor threesome with Hob and his hot wife :(((

Fun st patty’s fic idea: the gang (Robin , Steve, Eddie, etc.) find out that reader is Irish so they joking throw her a ‘coming out as Irish’ party with super cringey decor and those mint st pattys drinks from McDonald’s

Yay, I’m excited to have this little celebration! Reader is described at being Irish, as well as other cultures that are not stated. Reader was also adopted by the Buckley’s as a child, so some Buckley!reader and Eddie for you this lovely St. Patrick’s Day 💚☘️

Words: 1.3k

Robin sometimes got a bad rap for being scatterbrained or for rambling on incessantly. Both things were absolutely true, but she’s never gotten enough credit for how thoughtful and kind she is. Being her sister since you were six and she was five, you’d grown up seeing how she cares for those around her. You’d been the beneficiary of many of her acts of kindness, but you think she outdid herself this past Christmas. 

Ever since the Buckley’s adopted you, you’d wondered about where you came from. Not in the sense of wanting to know who your biological parents are, but of knowing your heritage. Growing up hearing people talk about traditions that had been passed down from ancestors who came to the melting pot that is America made you jealous. Sometimes you felt stupid for it, but you wanted to know what parts of the world you came from. 

On Christmas morning when you opened up a DNA kit that would reveal your ancestry and heritage, you’d teared up. Robin was watching you carefully, not wanting to miss the expression on your face; she knew she’d hit it out of the park with this gift. The way you tackled her into an enormous hug confirmed that thought. She’d helped you by reading the instructions to you as you spit in the tube and taping up the box when you were ready to send it back to the company. 

The long weeks between sending in your saliva and waiting for the results were tortuous. It was amusing, however, to listen to your friends make bets about what the results would be.

“You’re definitely mostly French,” Steve said.

“I’d put money on you being Greek,” Eddie said.

“Brazilian, for sure,” Nancy added. 

When you’d finally received your results back, there was a mixture of heritages on the paper, but one that dominated all of them. Irish. It made you grin, seeing the country’s name on the paper. You were from quite a few places around the world, but most of your family’s roots were in Ireland. Robin had expected the tears, no matter what the results were. Just the fact that now you knew made you emotional. 

Filled with an inner peace that you’d always longed for, you went on with your life, but your sister still had a surprise up her sleeve. 

As the middle of March came along, Nancy asked if you’d like to get lunch and see a movie one Saturday. Eddie was your usual movie buddy—because of your similar tastes in films and the fact that you were secretly head over heels in love with him–but it was always nice to spend time with Nancy. Lunch is enjoyable, Nancy taking you to a place that has much too fancy names for sandwiches that have basic deli meats and cheeses on them. The movie isn’t your typical pick, but you definitely agree with Nancy that the love interest is one of the hottest guys you’ve ever seen. You expect Nancy to just drop you off at home, but she gets out of the car as well.

“Just gonna say hi to Robin,” she says. 

Opening your front door, you’re greeted by a sea of green. It’s almost blinding, your usual living room turned into a mini Emerald Isle. Green streamers hang on the walls and from the ceiling, and a green tablecloth is thrown over a table that’s covered with food and what looks like pints of Guinness. Tiny gold coins litter the room, glinting in the fading sunlight, looking like a rainbow threw them up. Not to mention your friends all decked out in green. 

“What is going on?” you ask with a laugh as you step inside. 

“It’s your Irish coming out party!” Robin yells. 

“You wouldn’t let me throw you an actual coming out party!” you call back to your sister. 

“This isn’t about me,” Robin says, waving you off. “This is about celebrating your Irishness.” 

“And getting drunk?” you ask, picking up one of the pints of Guinness.

“Eddie got those,” Steve says. Speaking of the metal head…

“Happy St. Patrick’s Day,” Eddie says as he walks up to you. He’s wearing a shirt that says, “Kiss Me, I’m Irish.” Seeing the message brings heat to your face and you shake your head.

“Eddie, you’re not Irish,” you laugh. 

“Yeah,” Eddie says, pink tinting his cheeks. “I know.”

“He just wants a kiss,” Robin says. His head snaps in her direction, face going from pink to red. 

“Is that so?” you ask, astounded by your own bravado as the words leave your lips. 

“I think your sister’s had too much Guinness,” Eddie mumbles.

“Haven’t had any,” Robin says, coming over to the table to look over the food that lays there. There’s corned beef and cabbage, various forms of potatoes, some bread, and a type of cake. Your sister notices you looking and points to them in turn. “Irish soda bread and Irish apple cake. Steve was gonna make an Irish stew but then I said he should take you out today while we set up. Eddie threw a little pity party at that idea, though.”

Eddie rubs his hands over his face, letting out a sigh.

“Okay, maybe I had some Bailey’s already,” Robin says with a shrug. 

“All right, Robin,” Steve says, coming over and patting a hand on her shoulder. “You’re about to give the guy a coronary, so why don’t we have some food, yeah?”

Making sure to try a little bit of every type of food, you load up a plate and make sure to sit next to Eddie as your friends gather around your dining room table. 

“You guys didn’t have to do this,” you say, looking around at all the festive memorabilia. 

“It meant so much to you to learn about your heritage,” Nancy says. “When you found out you’re Irish and we realized St. Patrick’s Day was coming up, there was no way we could just let it go by.” 

“Thank you,” you say, trying your best not to get emotional. 

Under the table, Eddie takes your hand, making your potato-filled stomach erupt into butterflies. 

“Oh!” Robin says, perking up. She hops out of her seat and hurries into the kitchen. Steve chuckles, shaking his head in amusement at her. Robin returns, five green drinks held in her arms. “I don’t think we could’ve gotten more American Irish than having Shamrock Shakes from McDonald’s.”

“It’s perfect,” you say, accepting the frozen treat from her. 

“Shit,” Steve curses after taking a large sip of his. “Brain freeze.”

Robin continues to drink more Bailey’s and Guinness than milkshake, and you’re glad that you’re already in your own house so you don’t have to worry about driving her home. 

“Did you intend for Robin to inhale all the alcohol?” you whisper to Eddie.

“No,” he says with a laugh. 

“Whatcha whispering about?” Robin asks, but doesn’t give either of you time to answer before she continues. “OH! Who’s gonna kiss Eddie?! His shirt says he’s gotta be kissed!”

Eddie blushes, moving to fidget with his rings. The gazes of both Steve and Nancy fall on you.

“I think the guest of honor should do it,” Nancy says. 

“Yeah, the Irish belle of the ball,” Steve agrees. 

“Y-You don’t have—.” Eddie is cut off by you leaning in and pressing your lips against his. He tastes of mint and Guinness, with something distinctly Eddie behind it. His hand comes up to cup your cheek and you’re distantly aware of your friends cheering. 

“Finally!” your sister shouts. 

“Henderson owes me twenty bucks,” Steve says.

When you part—only because you need air—you rest your forehead against his, unable to keep the smile from your lips. 

“How was that?” Eddie whispers, a matching grin on his own face. 

“Even better than being Irish.”

By popular request...or an anon commenting me last night about enjoying me creating posts about the flaws in TWST and wanting me to talk about the worldbuilding aspect specifically along with me having some free time between jobs, here it is!

Disclaimer: Keep in mind this is all personal opinion. If you enjoy the worldbuilding in the game and find zero problems with it, great! I don't care. You are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine.

Where do I even begin? The shorter question would be, "What isn't wrong with it?" xD But seriously, oh, boy—there's a lot. Hell, this is pretty much my go-to example how NOT to write an urban fantasy world.

The closest thing I can compare the world of TWST to is the movie Bright—and that's NOT a good thing. For those of you who never had the misfortune of watching that late 2010s trainwreck, it's about a cop played by Will Smith teaming up with an orc to retrieve a magic wand. Sounds cool, right? However, like with TWST, the worldbuilding is something to be desired. It's an alternate universe where two thousand years ago there was a big war between The Nine Races where the orcs supported the Dark Lord, but an orc defected and lead an army that defeated him. Despite everything, it's pretty much exactly like real life with a few added fantasy elements. It even brings up real world pop culture references, containing such cringey and problematic lines like, "Fairy lives don't matter" after the Will Smith cop squishes a pixie that's on par with a raccoon in that world.

The worldbuilding in TWST feels like that. It's exactly like real life but with a few Disney and fantasy elements slapped on top, like magnets on a fridge. There is hardly any deviation from real life. Things like planes, cell phones, methods of measuring, days of the week, etc all exist just as they do irl. When you stop and think about it, half of these things shouldn't exist and the other should be a little different.

Yana also never thinks of the implications all of this alternate history. Magic always existing and the Greek gods being real should have a huge ripple effect, creating a completely different history compared to real life, but yet it doesn't. Hell, the whole idea of knowing that the Greek gods are real alone would massively change world history, since they would be a proven concept, snuffing out every other religion in existence! The world should be more massively different than ours with Disney sprinkled on top. There's no imagination about how a world like this would work. To quote Lindsey Ellis, "You cannot import elements from our real world without including all of the history that comes with them. You can, but it's lazy, and it sucks." xD Sure, you can write a fantasy world with cars and stuff, but the histories and the ways those exist in those worlds cannot be the exact same. There must be some divergence for it to make sense.

None of the new worldbuilding elements sense or feels woven in. It feels like Yana tossing out whatever idea she comes up up with at the wall and seeing what sticks. A lot of it starts to fall a part or even contradicts itself.

Take the whole Stitch or Tsums events. The existence both of these imply that aliens exist. That brings up a lot of questions like...

What is this world's policy for alien life?

Are aliens well known entities for this world?

What are other's reaction to this?

How did his story play out in this world if that's the case?

Everyone in this world has a Disney counterpart, right? If that's the case, wouldn't that mean there's some TWST version of Stitch running around Night Raven?

Is any of this ever addressed? Nope. That's stupid. World shattering shit like that should be addressed. While I know these are probably more than likely corporate mandates, especially since Tmus are a Japanese Disney product while Stitch is super popular in Japan, she could've added a disclaimer saying that it's a crack au that has nothing to do with the canon. The fact that these are both canon is mind boggling.

Plus, both of these events create a giant plot hole. If aliens are known to exist in this world, then why the fuck can't Yuu go home? If aliens exist, wouldn't there be portals and other ways for them to go home? It just makes Yuu and the rest of the cast look like total dumbasses for never thinking of this!

It goes beyond stupid events, but happens in general. The game routinely brings up similar elements without thinking of their implications on the game as a whole. Take the whole existence of STYKs. It was never once brought up or foreshadowed in the game, but brings about a lot of questions that are hardly explored. Like if this has existed for hundreds of years, how the fuck hasn't anyone heard of it? If STYKS is attached has a branch which is like our world's, someone should've blew the whistle eons ago. Surely, someone as smart as Idia or another mage should've been able to hack them and expose that to the public. Right? Wouldn't there be more of a public outcry for stealing people away, including royalty? Wouldn't there be government oversight about this? None of these questions are never addressed. Yet that element is slapped in without a second thought. Same also goes for all of the new lore in regards to Lilia's past, those pointless prophet dreams or how Playful Land works.

The magic system and how overblot works also fall apart the more you think about it. According to the light novel, only one out of ten humans is a mage. The percentage goes up in other races, but it remains about the same. But that makes no sense. TWST isn't like the HP universe where mages are isolated from the outside world, they are a part of society. Wouldn't it be the DOMINANT gene after over centuries of mages fucking mortals? I think it being more like the ATLA or BNHA universe where mages are the majority would make a lot more sense. That's what I did in my fic. Hell, it would make the world more unique, because usually fantasy stories have it where mages are a minority.

How overblotting works is never fully explained. All that we know, despite being on the seventh fucking story arc, is that whenever a mage uses Okay, sure. But there are times where that isn't the case. Characters who hard use up any magic like Leona and Vil overblot. Even if you argue that they were emotional during those bits or something, wouldn't the other part play a bigger role, since they used up so little magic in those cases? How in the fuck is that unknown concept to the general public? Wouldn't that be common knowledge? Diseases like Alzheimer's aren't something that everyone experiences, but this existence of those things are still common knowledge. Hell, why is it extremely rare in the first place? Wouldn't it be more commonplace? I feel like having it be a biological consequence of a mage using up too much magic and it being a well known down side to the world like how it is in my writing makes a lot more sense and is much simpler.

The lore around the fae also make zero sense. Common elements in fae lore like never thanking them or accepting gifts from them for you owe them a favour to cream and honey making them drunk are never brought up or mentioned. These are not random tropes brought up in shit like Baldur's Gate 3, but ingrained shit to the fantasy genre. You can't strip them out, because it is what makes the fae, fae. Hardly any types of fae from folklore are ever brought up outside of dragons and Tinkerbell style pixies. Characters like Vil who act very fae like are completely human. To be honest, I genuinely get the sense that Yana has done no research into this topic at all, because that's how out of touch they seem compared to how they are in folklore and other fantasy series. But if that is actually the case, then she should've looked into it more or consulted another writer who knows a lot about it.

Plus, the whole idea behind Briar Valley also makes no sense. They are completely isolated from the rest of the world...because…well, nothing, besides possibly vague hatred of tech. That's dumb. Countries don’t isolate themselves for no reason. There is always some sort of explanation for them to do that, whether it's manufactured for political gain like Panem or out of protection like Wakanda. Seriously, am I the only one that thinks that Brier Valley is just the fantasy Amish? As for the Spinning Wheel Wars, that will be explored in more depth as the fics go on.

If you want to see a world similar to TWST done right, watch The Owl House. That series, too, has a modern fantasy world. Unlike TWST, it seems like a fantasy world with modern elements instead of the other way around. Despite having phone-like devices and manga, it feels like stepping into another world.

Either way, if you wondered why I came up with completely different worldbuilding for my fics—this is exactly why. The worldbuilding in this game is pure dogshit. I wanted to create something leaps and bounds better than the bullshit we got. The fact that me, an amuetur writer, gets complimented and praised for the worldbuilding in my fics and it being better then the game is truly sad. Yana is a seasoned professional with a published manga with dozens of volumes under her belt, she should be better at this than me, not the other way around! Same goes for @stormkitty97, because she helps me brainstorm ideas for my shit and uses it in her writing, too.

The biggest sin of all is that there are some genuinely really cool ideas in TWST. The idea of turning into a monster whenever you use up too much magic is terrifying. The story could've done so much more with that if it made more sense!

As much as I might get hate for saying this, Yana reminds me a lot of Stephanie Meyers in the sense that she can come up with cool concepts and ideas, but has no idea how to execute them properly. I would love to see a better professional writer tackle a concept similar to overblot, because it would be cool and scary in the right hands.

I think one big lesson that amuetur writers like myself can learn from the worldbuilding in TWST is that if you are a "Pantser", aka someone who writes on the fly, like Yana, great, all the more power to you. Hell, I confess that I'm more like Brandon Sanderson in the sense that I'm a mixture of both a "Pantser" and an "Architect" Writer, and I came up with some elements of my worldbuilding on my TWST fics as I was writing like the characters being able to teleport. But for fuck's sake, have a solid plan for your worldbuilding and stick with it. Because constantly throwing ideas at the wall beyond the outlining stage will eventually make these contradictions arise and make your world fall apart. Also, if you are building a modern fantasy world like TWST, always think through the implications each element bring. Adding in elements from our real world will always drag along all of the history tied with it. Having your modern fantasy world seem like TWST or Bright is the last thing you want.

dealbreakers in sanders sides fanfiction for me (part one?)

(if i see these in a fan fiction im reading, i’ll probably stop reading or leave a bad review if that’s an option. also this is just my opinion please don’t be pressed, some of these im serious about hating but some are just things i find a bit boring or irritating.)

1. BABYTALK. i reblogged and added to a post about this on my main, but there are a lot of kid!sides fics out there with the most horrendous, disgustingly inaccurate, just cringey child characters on the planet. if i see another fic where virgil gets turned into a four year old and suddenly he’s all “oh no papa im scawed of da big mownstaw!” i will go crazy. not only is it wildly boring to read and makes me cringe, but it’s an amazing opportunity wasted! kids are hilarious and imaginative and they shouldn’t be reduced to whiny little things that just exist to be “cute pure smol beans 🥺” when KIDS ARE COOL and so fun to read about when they’re portrayed right. i’m writing a fic where logan is 7 years old, but he’s the SASSIEST LITTLE THING and he’s still a child with childish tendencies and interests, but he doesn’t have that inaccurately written speech impediment or the personality of a wet noodle. he’s funny and it’s obvious that he’s a kid without it being super cliche or on the nose. if you’re a person who struggles with writing children, or you’re reading this and you’re all like “oh shit i do that”, then my advice is to try interacting with children or observing them irl (without being creepy lol)! see their mannerisms and how they tell stories or interact with the world. the results might inspire you!

2. “i’m so small and weak and everything bad happens to me help me” x “i’m big and strong and perfect and i have no trauma and i’m always there to save the day” ship dynamic. NO. STOP THIS. i especially see this with prinxiety and it’s such a shame because first of all, a relationship like this is a hella toxic one, someone entirely relying on someone else for rescue or comfort while never providing the same in return? absolutely not. and second of all, it gets boring to read about when one character does nothing but give and the other does nothing but take. it makes things predictable and irritating to read. i don’t want to read virgil getting hurt over and over while roman saves him over and over. give me arguments and internal conflict, and maybe roman being saved for once? i just can’t with that dynamic, it sucks.

3. on the same vein as 2, when one character is the only one in the wrong, or there’s a character who’s never in the wrong. usually, the character who’s never in the wrong in fics are patton and virgil, which is not only just…something that rubs me the wrong way, but it’s also another opportunity missed. when you have a character who is at moral perfectionism all the time without a single mistake, or everything they do is perceived as “right” by other characters or even the writer when they actually are in the wrong fundamentally and it’s never addressed, it bothers me so much. let all your characters have the privilege of being in the wrong. it’s the best way for character development or change to occur. trust me on this one. let your precious innocent angels fall, because absolutely nobody is as innocent as they seem. this is one thing that always, without fail, makes me hate the fic. LET THE SIDES BE IN THE WRONG. PLEASEEEE.

4. this one is purely my opinion so i won’t expand upon it, but i hate seeing roman doing wildly out of character things just so he can be perceived as the villain. probably just because he’s my favorite but i digress! i love seeing roman make mistakes and pick himself back up again but when he’s just pure evil for the hell of it? nahhh not my thing, personally.

5. when characters are evil/bullies for no reason. this one isn’t always a deal breaker for me but it bothers me. i love a good villain character whose actions are completely understandable from their own pov, just wrong. it makes it so much more realistic and engaging. try giving your villain!sides a cool backstory, or a reason. it could lead to something neat.

6. poc sides but the author is white and does no research and the poc sides are the most heinously stereotypical people on the planet. as a filipino person, i know that the sanders sides fandom is like 99% wonderbread (white people), but it’s no excuse to create some of the things i’ve seen in these fanfics. here’s my advice: when making a side a poc, ask yourself why you chose that particular race? if your answers are something like “logan is asian because he’s smart!” or “roman is hispanic/latino because he’s romantic/because he’s stupid!” or “virgil is black because he’s tough and mean!” then…uh…that’s racist, my friend. ask yourself why you’re making one side this particular race versus another side. race and personality never go hand in hand for any reason. you can however say “roman is filipino because my friend is filipino and she reminds me of roman.” that’s okay, because you’re using someone as inspiration as a whole, not just their race. you can also say “i’m making virgil black because virgil is my favorite to write about and i want to research black culture and try my hand at writing a character who’s cultural experience is different from mine.” that’s also a slay. bottom line: do your research and don’t fall into racist cliches.

i’m definitely making a part two btw 😂 reblog with stuff you hate and i might add it if i agree!!

Contaminated (10/?)

Bishop Losa!Dad x OC Lara Barrera Losa Angel Reyes x OC Lara Losa EZ Reyes x OC Frankie Loza 

A/N: It has been a minute, y’all. But enjoy this lil update I’ve had in my docs for a bit. Just needed to edit and proof read it. This is just a little fun for the youngins before we get into the real draaaaama. Enjoy!

For a refresh, all the chapter links are in the below link!

Chapter Index TW: 18+, mentions of murder, death, violence, drugs, and alcohol. 

Word Count: 3.2k Taglist: (Just let me know if you want to be added :) @est1887 @minimel-fics @spnaquakindgdom @nessamc @alienstardust @mrsstevenbuchananstark @hinagiku0 @lyly00 @drabbles-mc (it’s been a while since I’ve posted this, if I’ve forgot to add you to the taglist just let me know!) 

The group of them had potentially driven about 100 miles in the past hour and a half, listening to music, stopping on the side of the road to pee, listening to Angel bitch about how they should’ve taken their bikes, hear the clinking of Lara’s empties, watch Coco regret his decision to come, all while EZ and Frankie swooned over each other. But now, they were at what was probably one destination of many. 

“You’re getting this. You’re totally getting this.” Lara held up the shirt that read “never underestimate an old man who rides a motorcycle” in a really cringey font. 

“Old man?” Angel scoffed. 

“I think it’s real fitting,” Coco hit Angel on the chest as he squeezed past him towards where Lara was in the aisle of the thrifted clothing store. 

“Not funny,” Angel mocked. 

Coco was laughing as he reached his hand out to get a sip of the pint of alcohol Lara had pulled out to drink. Just as she was grabbing it back from him after his few swigs, Coco pulled it away. 

“You mind if I actually take this with me? I’ma go roam the mall or some shit while you all restock your closets,” Coco took a few steps backwards. 

“You’re not slick,” Lara rolled her eyes, still with the hanger of the motorcycle shirt in her hand. As she dismissed Coco she turned back around to see Angel was gone– smart move on his part, removing himself from the situation to avoid any more slick comments but Lara didn’t care. She made her way to the register and paid for the shirt and quickly made her way back to the group that was still in the store. 

“Red really ain’t your color, bro,” Angel said with a chuckle towards EZ as Frankie held up a red polo shirt against his chest. 

“Good thing no one asked you,” Frankie remarked back, giving Angel a stank face. 

“I have to agree with Angel, I think the forest green one would be better,” Lara spoke up as she approached. She moved behind one of the racks that stood as aisle separators and leaned her head over the metal bar and rested it on top of the hangers. 

Frankie switched arms, moving the green shirt back over EZ’s chest to get a look. After a couple head tilts, she shook her head in agreement, “Lara’s right. Green it is.” 

“Look at you miss fashionista,” Angel looked over at the girl. “You should shop for everyone,” he joked but instantly regretted it as the bag was being tossed into his arms. 

“Yup, and it seems like I already got started,” she said as she walked by him as his shoulders dropped in defeat as he saw what she bought for him. 

Before Angel could make a comment Lara was cutting him off. “C’mon, Coco took my emotional support alcohol, I need to find a place that will either let me get a replacement bottle or hold me over until I can get one.”

“You sound like you need to go to AA,” Angel said as he caught up with the girl as they exited the store. Lara stood right outside the entrance and carefully looked over each store in the strip mall, although it was dark, it still wasn’t too late so things were still open. Her eyes glossed over the ice cream shop along with the 24/7 gym, she didn’t even bother getting a look at the stores that had their lights shut off. Continuing, her eyes moved over the neon lights in the short distance a little too fast before they were jolting back as if she was rewinding a tape. 

“Bingo.” She mumbled as she looked across the street at the building that was lit up in red, purple, and blue neon lights. What really caught her eye was the sign that was flashing. It wasn’t the name of the bar, it wasn’t even the sign that displayed their house beer, it had a saying on it. She squinted for a moment to get a good look at the words before smiling. 

Now look, Lara was going to go across the street regardless, no matter what she had or hadn’t seen. It was a bar, they had liquor, and she needed liquor. Simple as that. But when she read the sign she knew it was meant to be. 

Live a life you will remember. But tonight, live in a moment you’re probably going to forget. 

She began to make her way across the street, looking back over her shoulder when she heard a car door close to see Angel now in close tow after throwing the bag from the thrift store in her car. 

The bouncer at the door was a unique touch, not something she was used to back in Santo Padre, but once they both entered into the bar she got why. It was packed, the lights were bright and were definitely one of many things that brought the heat up in that place. The music was loud, but good. The atmosphere had everything going for it that would be repulsive to anyone else. But to Lara, it was inviting. The stickiness in the air from the sweat of bodies that were dancing so close, the smell of weed and alcohol was a combination she thought she was familiar with but without the mixed aroma of mixed drinks it brought a completely different vibe. There was the sound of hip hop with a touch of pop and even a little top 40 action, something she’d never hear at the clubhouse or any bar in a 40 mile radius of the clubhouse. It was new. It was fresh. It was a place where Lara could be free. 

The two of them made their way to the bar, she felt herself starting to sober up and once she caught a glimpse of where the drinks were being poured, that was her first stop. As they approached, Lara saw the familiar long black hair and Mayans kutte leaning over the bar holding a green bottle of beer. 

“Funny seeing you here,” Lara yelled over the music at Coco who nodded at her and Angel. 

“What the fuck is this place, bro?” Angel asked Coco as he propped his elbow on the bar to Coco’s left while Lara made herself comfortable on the corner seat on Coco’s right. 

“A dream.” Lara answered for Coco as she looked around before catching the bartender's attention. 

“Tequila, on the rocks, two limes, keep it coming.” She yelled, placing cash down.

That first sip of her drink was like the moment she walked into the bar, shocking, warm, but most of all inviting. Lara finished the full glass just as fast as it was poured for her and was ordering another as her body mindlessly swayed to the music. The three of them sat there, silent towards each other but in the loud atmosphere of the club. Just as she was finishing her third? Maybe fourth– Lara had lost count, she clocked her best friend. 

“Frankie!” Her voice echoed, which is how you knew it was a loud bellow. It alerted the two Mayans at the bar who were now joined by EZ. 

“Cool place you found,” Frankie said in the girl’s ear, grabbing her friend’s drink from her hand and taking a large gulp. 

“Keep it, I have another one coming, I made friends with the bartender, his name is Franky too!” Lara was yelling, not just to be heard over the bass and the crowds but because she was in fact, officially back to being drunk. 

Franky, the bartender was holding up another drink and giving it to the Losa girl with a smile on his face and took the last of the cash Lara had left on the table. 

“Come on, let’s go dance, I’ve been dying to,” Lara grabbed the drink and took Frankie’s hand with her free one, dragging her to the dance floor. 

The girl moved to the beat of the song, her backside moving against her best friend’s front as they danced on each other. Now the stickiness of alcohol was spilled on their bodies, not just from their own glasses but others around them as well, although it could have been mixed with the stickiness of sweat as well. Lara turned around to face the girl with a laugh, letting the beat carry her away as she got low to the ground and brought herself back up. The two of them soaked up every moment of every song that kept playing. They powered through the eventual pain in their feet as they both were enjoying their time together way too much. 

“I’ll be right back, I gotta pee!” Lara grabbed Frankie’s face and talked into her ear since both of their hearing now was practically gone by being so close to the speakers. 

Meanwhile, back at the bar the guys were casually drinking and chatting. Coco getting more fed up by the atmosphere as time went on and more people were bumping into him causing him to spill his drink. 

He cut the brothers off mid conversation. “I’m goin’ to have a smoke, can’t take this shit anymore.” The stool was being pushed out but over the sound of the DJ there was no way to hear it. Angel and EZ let the man go and brought themselves closer to the bar, turning to watch the dance floor, specifically the two girls they came here with. 

“So you decide to make the move yet?” EZ spoke up with a smirk as he sipped his beer. 

“Not this shit again man,” Angel whined. 

“Yea, I didn’t think you’d be a coward for this long,” EZ was now enticing his brother. He expected Angel to get angry, storm away, hell, even hit him. But shockingly he didn’t. 

“Alright, real question. Hypothetically.” Angel looked over at EZ as he said the last word to really drive that point home. “It’s the prez’s daughter. Ain’t no way something like that could happen.” Angel shook his head and looked forward again. 

EZ took a minute to think how to reply, he wasn’t expecting Angel to want to have a real moment in the middle of this club. 

“I mean, Frankie and I make it happen.” He shrugged, thinking of more to say. 

“Hank and Bishop are two way different people. At the end of the day, Lara and Bishop got a lot of baggage between them and I’m not sure if I want to get in the middle of that.” Angel said. “Hypothetically.” He quickly added to his statement as he looked back over at EZ. 

“Honestly, Angel. You’re already in the middle of it. Hypothetically, of course.” EZ grinned. 

Angel rolled his eyes and finished his drink before pushing EZ. 

“Shut the fuck up. I’ll be back I gotta take a piss.” He laughed as he retreated to the bathroom. 

He opened the bathroom door and froze when he saw Lara who had been dancing in the bathroom to the music as she washed her hands. 

At the sound of the music getting louder as the door opened she looked to see Angel at the door. A laugh escaped the minute she saw him, it was so ironic. 

“We gotta stop meeting like this,” she chuckled as she grabbed the paper towel. She moved close to Angel, closing the space in between them, any attempt to hide or stop the tension between them was long gone on Lara’s side. Any hope of that was lost after her 6th drink. 

Angel wanted to feed into it, but he wasn’t nearly as drunk and he still had a lot of hesitancy especially from just coming out of that conversation with EZ. His hand moved up and was about to cup her face but instead he fixed a stray hair and tucked it behind the girl’s ear before pushing him past her. 

“I gotta take a leak.” He said perfectly spoiling the moment. Lara stood there frozen a little embarrassed at putting herself out there like that but pulled herself together and left the bathroom without another word. 

“Way to go, fuck up.” Angel mumbled to himself as he was relieving himself and heard the bathroom door open and shut. 

When he came back out Lara clearly decided to take her anger out on someone in the club, because he saw a bit of commotion going on and Lara was at the center of it. Surprisingly, even over the music he could hear her voice getting an attitude with some man who clearly had no issue serving it back to her. 

“I don’t know who the fuck you think you are, but we told you to leave us alone,” Lara was barking at the tall man who was clearly angry at the situation or the rejection he experienced that Lara was now broadcasting to the surrounding crowd. 

Angel quickly made his way over before the situation escalated and stood in between the two, looking directly at Lara. 

“Yo, chill out.” 

Three words. That’s all he gave Lara in this moment but his eyes were speaking more than he was. 

“Nah, this guy was trying to put his hands all up on the both of us. I’m not gonna ch–”

“Lara, for the love of God, please, let’s just go to the bar and cool off.” Angel was surprisingly trying to deescalate the situation which annoyed Lara. She kept a frown on her face and gave him a stank look but had full intentions of listening to his advice and moving to the bar. She hadn’t had a refill in a while and could use one so there was that silver lining to this whole commotion. But then the guy spoke up. 

“Yea, listen to your little biker bitch and move along.” The mans words were sharp and venomous, like he wanted to cut through both of them. It was honestly a stupid move, insulting the man who he didn’t know who was essentially trying to help him out. 

Lara’s face grew with a smirk as she looked up at Angel, knowing how he was going to respond like they knew each other for an entire lifetime. 

“See you at the car?” She laughed and began to search for Frankie’s hand. 

“Yea, I’ll see you at the car.” Angel said nodding, now in a completely different headspace. 

Lara began to make her way to the door, it got rather easy as everyone’s attention was now on the commotion behind them. 

EZ’s eyes were glancing over to see the girl’s running to the exit and then they darted over to the commotion. 

Everything was slow motion, Angel’s arm was like a slingshot, moving backwards to gain momentum and then jolting forwards to meet in line with someone’s face. EZ was going to make his way over until he saw the unlucky man who was now knocked unconscious on the ground and figured heading out was the best option. 

The girls were laughing as they pulled each other out of the club at a decent speed, passing Coco who was leaned against the building smoking what was probably his 5th cigarette in a row. If they didn’t catch his attention, EZ did as he called out to them. 

“What the fuck happened?!”

Before either of them could answer Angel was running out of the club. 

“Go, go, go, go, go, go!!!!” He called out gaining speed. The group of them quickly piled into the car at his eagerness as well as the crowd of security that was closely behind him. They all ran across the street, it was now well into the night and there wasn’t much traffic so it was easy to escape. Coco was quick to understand and was the first in the car surprisingly, while EZ was the second. Both of them had better reflexes from all the unexpected club shit they had experienced. EZ was pulling the car out of the spot, fast but precise and slammed on the brakes to let the remaining 3 jump into the car. All of them taking the seats they had on the way down. As EZ pulled away, everyone took a second to catch their breath and look behind them to see if they were being followed. Lara was the first to let out a laugh as she saw one of the bouncers attempting to chase after them on foot. 

“Faster, EZ!!!” She laughed as she opened the sunroof to plop her upper half out of. 

“I”m trying Lara but you don’t exactly drive a sports car!” 

Lara stuck her middle fingers up at the bouncer and her tongue out of her mouth once she knew there was no way he would catch up. 

“See ya never, motherfucker!” She yelled followed by a scream to let the wind take her voice high and her hair shook out. 

Angel had to laugh at the girl, she was crazy and if anyone could appreciate that it was him. 

“What the fuck was that?” Coco asked the boys as Lara re-situated herself in the vehicle. 

“Some motherfucker wanted to get mouthy,” Angel offered up an explanation. 

“So Angel knocked him out.” Frankie smiled and turned her head at the whole back seat. 

“What a rush.” Lara smiled and settled into her seat. 

“Yea, let’s never do it again.” EZ said with a laugh since most of the weight was on him to get them out of there. 

The group pulled back into the clubhouse a few hours later, half of them were asleep, but Lara stayed wide awake. Her brain was thinking about everything, even when it would wander off into other thoughts, it’d always find its way back to the two things weighing heaviest on her. The Calaveras and Bishop. 

“We’re back,” EZ whispered to Frankie as he parked the car in the clubhouse lot. 

She stirred awake and mumbled under her breath. “Can we crash in your trailer? I'm too tired to take the bike home.” 

EZ laughed and exited the car and grabbed the girl from the car, carrying her fireman style. “Yea, we can crash here.” 

“You guys good?” EZ called out to the group, Coco was already making his way to his bike and just offered a quick nod. 

“Remind me never to do this shit with you guys again,” he said seriously before following it up with a smile as he started his bike. Lara was climbing out of the car with a chuckle and then turned to EZ. 

“Thanks for driving, prospect. Take care of her, she’s going to be sick as fuck in the morning,” Lara said knowing the girl like the back of her hand. 

EZ nodded, “Can’t wait. You need anything?” He looked at his brother who was groggily getting out of the car.

“Nah, we’re fine.” He looked at Lara. “You wanna crash at the clubhouse?” He tilted his head at the club. 

“Actually, if you’re up for it, maybe we could take a ride.” She said looking directly at Angel. They were standing at two opposite sides of the car, staring at each other. 

“I’ll let you guys be,” EZ smirked and disappeared in the lot towards his trailer with Frankie. 

Angel wanted to argue it but he could see from the girl’s eyes she needed something so he agreed. 

“I can drive, I’m sober now. I didn’t drink much at the club, only like 2 beers and I slept it off in the car.” He explained. 

The next words out of Lara’s mouth shocked her, “Let’s take the bike.”

Right! Back to the dystopian action.

[Side note: I watched this on YouTube, free with ads. I still don’t recommend it, because it puts ads at really weird places (like it does with all videos). None of them were as frustrating as the time I watched Solomon Kane, but still a bit annoying.]

Katniss has been recruited by the rebels of District 13 after escaping the Hunger Games and her home District being bombed out by the Capitol. But she’s not just called to fight–President Coin of District 13 and Plutarch Heavensbee want to make Katniss into the Mockingjay, the face of the rebellion, to help inspire their p people and rally the citizens of the Districts into open rebellion against the Capitol. Of course, Katniss has complex feelings about that, and she also wants to rescue Peeta, who was left behind in the Capitol–and it turns out! Has been brainwashed into becoming President Snow’s mouthpiece! Ohes noes!

In the wake of the Harry Potter film series, every young adult film series and massive blockbuster type made the questionable decision to split their final installments into two parts. The result is often a third film that’s almost entirely set up for a fourth film that’s almost entirely action sequences. I was worried about that going into this movie, but I didn’t find it too egregious. It is a problem, on reflection–there are a lot of sequences of hunkering in the bunkers that could have been shortened or cut. But it didn’t feel like the cliffhanger for this movie was any more abrupt than the ending of Catching Fire.

I thought that an interesting aspect of this movie is how much it focuses on media and propaganda. The rebellion doesn’t want Katniss to just go out and lead troops in battle and shoot all the bad guys (though I don’t know if that’d mind that), they want her to film public service announcements about how much the Capitol sucks. Which of course, doesn’t work, because Katniss isn’t an actress. Haymitch points out that the best way to capture her being inspirational is to let her just do her thing. But this also means putting Katniss in rough situations and pointing cameras at her to see what she does.

I don’t know, I feel like a lot of movies (or other , especially movies involving rebellions, don’t talk about the aspect of public relations. I liked that take on the subject.

Still, that also means that there aren’t that many action sequences. Which is fine, but apparently that’s a sticking point for many–that they wanted to see more of the war itself. It didn’t bother me much because I think many people don’t like thinking about how little of a war is actually, y’know, combat compared to other considerations, but I’ll admit it is also a little annoying that they’re probably going to pack the next movie with more action sequences and so this one will seem quite boring by comparison. I’ll let you know if that holds out to be true when I get to the second part.

Performances are great across the board, but I can’t help but miss President Snow. He’s not in this movie that much; which is a shame because he’s loads of fun to watch. He’s a bastard, but he’s an entertaining bastard.

That being said, while  I think that Jennifer Lawrence’s performances are good, it isn’t always fun to watch, because you have scenes of Katniss trying to act, and Katniss isn’t good at acting. So yeah, in-universe, it works, but it’s still a bit cringey to watch. 

It’s fine, but I don’t know if I will feel the same after the second part. And this is a thing that I hate about this whole ‘Part 1-Part 2’ thing Hollywood used to do. I watch a movie, and then I have an opinion, but then it turns out that it’s an incomplete opinion because the story’s not meant to be taken on its own.

[Then why did you write a movie review for just half a movie? Well, because I got over halfway through writing this before I came to this realization.]

So I didn’t mind this film being a bit slower, but it IS a bit slower, and I can’t help but think that I can’t make a final judgment. Right now, it’s fine, and the movie’s enjoyable enough, especially if you’ve been keeping track of the story thus far. But we’ll have to see if it all comes together well in the final installment.

Especially because the actor playing the major character Plutarch Heavensbee, Philip Seymoue Hoffman, died after filming his parts for this movie?

[bludstaind]

(curley gao, she/her, spirit warrior) to DOLLIE ALIMJAN, the whole world looks like an open page. with a leap of faith, their ability of BODY EXCHANGE grows a little stronger. they’re pledged to the HOUSE OF BELTRAN to defend the enchanted lands of cagliostro with their ENCHANTED BUTTERFLY CLIPS. for TWENTY-THREE years, they have survived a world of magic with both their INVESTIGATION SKILLS AND SELF-CENTERED PERSONALITY. they work as a PODCAST HOST & INTERNET SLEUTH, but if they could change their fate, they’d want to EXPOSE THE WIZARD OF WHALE ISLAND. (ana, 25, she/her, est)

⸺ THREADS . STARTERS . VISAGE . AESTHETICS . PINTEREST .  PLAYLIST  

hello hello! it’s your local goblin ANA here trying her hand again at actually posting on the dash .･ﾟﾟ･(／ω＼)･ﾟﾟ･. dollie is an older muse of mine from a previous roleplay & she’s super easy for me to play, so i hope you’ll all love her and we can have fun in some threads! (i’m shy though so pls be patient, plotting in the dms makes me a lil anxious huisdfhsd)  below i’ve included some tidbits of info about her for you, along with her profile information under! ♡ ok kiss kiss ily bye

officially adding another alimjan to the mix of things, get ready for more chaos as material girl by madonna plays in the background!!!

the youngest out of five sisters, also a cast member on a cringey and cheesy reality tv show called all around the alimjans (it's bootleg keeping up with the kardashians)

your typical neurotic workaholic capricorn with a splash of perfectionism, you'll find her working 3 different jobs and constantly on the search for more because she doesn't know how to slow down and breathe

despite the valley girl meets paris hilton meets the kardashians meets socialite facade she has on now, she was a very awkward, frizzy haired, tokyo ghoul obsessed little girl in her youth who was bullied often. anyone who knows her from her youth will know she's an entirely different person beneath the mask she's spent so many years building up.

the main host of cagliostros spookiest, most drama-filled podcast! “glamour & ghouls” will provide you with all things GLAMOUROUS, GHOULISH, AND GOSSIPY. you'll also find her on youtube, as well as internet sleuthing in her "free" time.

her youtube channel is where she vlogs behind the scenes content, investigations, as well as her makeup and skincare routines!

incredibly nosy, will always be in your business and isn't afraid to use whatever (or whoever) she needs to get to the top. her power is body swapping so don't be surprised if your character wakes up one day in a different body and you hear around town that people saw you doing things you didn't do 👀 (think freaky friday!)

despite being (very) annoying, if she knows you and loves you, she will (very frequently) show up at your door unannounced with your favorite drink to make your day a little better. be prepared to hear all of the gossip and drama you've missed out on, though. will also eventually force your character to let her give them a makeover. sorry, not sorry!!!!

spirit warrior who went through the full initiation and ceremony process, though she's not as involved in her house as others. prefers sticking to sleuthing and investigating drama more than fighting evil by moonlight and winning love by daylight. i have an open plot/wc for a dreamshade companion who helps her with the dirty work of things if anyone is ever interested  👀

plot bunnies/wanted connections!!

ex best-friend - someone who she considered nearly as close to her as her twin sister. when dollie wasn’t with rosie, she was always with your character. things ended on a very sour note, after dollie got too involved with a tragedy in the best-friends family. i wanna keep this pretty open to creative freedom, but an idea i had for this was that dollie made the mistake of sharing information on her best friends tragedy with her followers, and it caused a very sour and bitter end to the friendship.

the enemy - for some reason, this character wants to take dollie down and ruin the comfortable little career she’s been working so hard at building up ( maybe even at the expense of others? ) perhaps they don’t her sticking her nose in peoples business around town, or think she’s sniffed a little too close to something they want to remain covered up, this is completely open and i’d love to brainstorm something juicy for it 👀

the budding love - despite the constant need to always look put-together and like she has everything figured out, dollie has had a long battle with learning to understand herself. she was content with herself, comfortable with just focusing on her job and hobbies, but someone comes along and shows her what it’s like to love without all the expectations, what it’s like to have the passion, the adventure, the butterflies in your tummy that all the girls in the movies talk about. for the first time, she feels like she has a chance. (important note that dollie is a closeted lesbian currently who's only just now starting to figure herself out so this may have to be slow burn hehe!)

dreamshade companion - helps with investigations/the dirty work of being a nosy! dreamshades and spirit warriors often make contracts and work together as pairs in cagliostro, it's quite common and a good way to keep a dreamshade safe from being slain. perhaps your character is in it only for the safety, or maybe they enjoy sticking their nose in other peoples business too! i'm open to anything tbh

out of town friends - because of her interest in true crime/mysteries, dollie has done a fair bit of traveling outside of selphia for sleuthing and investigations, often spending weeks to even months all over the place to get the big scoop. there are no limits on where she could have met your muse, i wanted to leave it open for creativity ♡

podcast guests - anyone who comes on the podcast would likely have had their ears talked off by dollie many, many, many times. she’s very social and when it comes to info-dumping with her co-workers about the latest conspiracies, true crime, or whatever mysterious event has taken place in cagliostro this week, she doesn’t know when to stop

enemies and foes - when you're as nosy as dollie and willing to turn other peoples tragedies into profit, there are bound to be some people who just can’t sit right with her choice in career. maybe they think she’s too nosy, maybe she’s shared information with the public that was meant to be private, i’m open to absolutely anything! 

shared interests in town conspiracies - i think it’d be super fun to have plots where dollie and other characters get together and discuss/investigate/try to work through town conspiracies! friends who sleuth together stay together 😎

fans of her youtube channel  ( okay, okay, she’s not THAT big yet, but she likes to pretend she is  )

i swear i have better ones than this but my brain is losing power!!! but i'm open to anything! ily guys LET ME PLOT WITH YOU HEHE

Honestly that 'everyone forgot your birthday' thing is just corny writing to me. I get the idea behind it, but when it all comes down to it, it feels cringey, you know? you can deal with Will being left behind thing without involving a corny ass thing like that. Just talk about his traumas and him trying to fit in or something, those sort of stuffs you talked about can be portrayed without involving this 'boohoo everyone forgot about your birthday' cringe. Maybe it is just me, but I would find this 'everyone forgetting about your birthday' storyline very corny. It's also not interesting.

Honestly I’m on the fence about how much I like it, but I am pretty firm on the idea that there’s no way that the duffers forgot- there’s just too many ‘coincidences’/evidence suggesting otherwise. I do agree though that it could easily be cringe, and that IS one of my fears. However, I’m hoping that the duffers will manage to pull it off in an interesting and non-cringey way, especially since Will is very much the self-sacrificing type who wouldn’t make a fuss over people forgetting his birthday, so trying to pull the “omg will is so mad/sad at everyone for forgetting his bday” wouldn’t work imo because Will seems, deep down, to feel as if he IS replaceable/forgettable, and so, may even feel that it was fine/deserved for them to forget his birthday yknow??

Like personally I wouldn’t have added the birthday thing into the story at all at this point (unless of course the duffers manage to pull it off in some great way which I AM hoping for), but I do feel like whether I would have added it or not, the duffers have added it, because imo there’s too much weird evidence for it to be a coincidence, so now I’m making the best of that situation + hoping that they pull it off!

My main interest in birthdaygate is going through the evidence to try and puzzle out WHY the duffers included all of these little hints/evidence about it, so that maybe we can figure out what direction they’re tkaing it. It’s not like birthdaygate is something that I wanted/personally headcanoned and then sought out evidence for- it’s more that I started seeing the evidence and patterns, accepted that it’s seemingly part of the plot, and am now trying to figure out how they’re going to make to work!

[uwusillygirl]

heyo! hope everyone is doing well! for those following my saga, i made it to the white lotus finale SPOILER FREE!

(brief thoughts: very, very good. delighted by those who "won" this season. my glib sort of guesses early on in the season regarding who would die were based on last season's theme of money. but, as mike white himself pointed out, this season's theme was centered around sex more than money. so with that context, it feels like his same "rules" applied, just to a different theme; those who best understand how sex works socially "win", and the person with the stupidest, most romanticized, unaware ideals around sex "lose" -- in the form of killing someone or being finessed.) we can get into specifics beyond that if we want but i don't want to talk your ear off.

i have some yummy little asks in my inbox that i am so looking forward to posting, you all are so fun.

finally, a moment of full emotional transparency. i went into all of this (fic writing, talking about my work, being on tumblr for fandom, even talking about smutty shit, etc.) to try and let myself just enjoy life and fun practices judgment free.

but it's an adjustment, and i frequently have moments where i berate myself over being too nerdy, excitable, pervy, cringey, insert any other word.

so i just want to thank you all for being so sweet and indulging me and letting me just have this space. i find it extremely weird that i have a thirteen part fic series out of nowhere that i will continue adding to, and that i am here answering smutty headcanons and shit like that (and yet, if anyone else did the same, i would find it interesting and lovely and beautiful. we are so hard on ourselves!). i fear too-muchness, i fear being too intense. but i want to learn to enjoy things for the sake of them, and you've all made this specific step really pleasant.

okay, mush over! back to being flighty and off-putting and whimsical and mysterious.

Super Junior ask game, and gimme the long in detail answers 👀 1, 3, 4, 5, 14, 16, 57, and 97 🤍

ok here i go ⌨️⌨️!! lol adding a ‘read more’ here because is long and might be annoying, thanks for the ask!

1. When did you become an ELF?

2020 right before quarantine started and covid happened. i have so little around but at the same time it feels like an eternity, they do have a lot of content and i did watch a lot of it during quarantine. i feel in some way i missed a lot of stuff with suju in real time lol i wish i discovered them earlier in my life, but i think they came at the right moment. 😊

3. What was your first impression of SuJu?

well they look serious and really are professionals when it comes to work, i thought they'd be like that and a little boring, i was fucking WRONG. right after i found their music i went straight to check some of their shows, and i watched super tv first, they're fucking crazy pls. and this old show explorers of the human body with tiny sujus? A MASTERPIECE. i'm so glad they have a funny side too, i love them so much and they're absolute professional dorks.

4. First SuJu song you listened to?

officialy? it was ‘2ya2yao’ lol. but i am pretty sure i heard ‘mr. simple’ and ‘bonamana’ somewhere without knowing they are suju songs.

5. Latest SuJu song you listened to?

‘feels good’ from mr simple album. for some reason i want to strip to that song lmao.

14. A member you’d be friends with?

i’d love to be friends with kyuhyun, leeteuk and shindong for reaaaal. i love kyuhyun’s smart sarcasm, leeteuk sometimes is so cringey and i find that kinda cute, and shindong is just so clever and funny at the same time. i’d say all of them in the end HAHAHAHA. but mostly them.

16. The member who is most different than your first impression of them?

the first time i saw donghae i thought he was going to be the most serious but outgoing member of all of them, turns out he’s very cute and a little silly sometimes hahaha. maybe that’s why i see him being very manly and like a very serious person, i mean he is to my eyes lol. same thing happened with siwon. i love this duality they have tho. i think it also applies to all of them, one minute they be performing like pros or doing a serious photoshoot and the next one they’re a fucking disaster, i’m here for that.

57. A new subunit you’d like to see?

83 line sub unit asap pls. also yesung and heechul sub unit. i mean they’ll just debut another sub unit 17 years after they debut, i can still dream, right?!! i am very excited for shinwonteuk tbh. i’ll be fucking replaying their songs non-stop, i am so ready for it. i didn’t think i’d get to experience a sub unit debut since the last one that debuted it was suju d&e like 11 years ago so this is a complete blessing for me because that means they’re not going anywhere and i’ll fucking stay here, hell yes. so please give me teukchul and yechul, thanks! 😭

97. Is SuJu your ult group? What other kpop and non-kpop artists do you like?

they are hahaha. i like some other groups and soloists, like some shinee, exo, nct, h.o.t, bigbang, jessi (she’s not kpop i think), 2ne1, f(x), hyuna, dawn, rain, and a lot more that i can’t remember haha. for non-kpop i’m a very pop person, i listen to old songs a lot, and i like disco (like tina turner, abba, donna summer and such), and recently a lot of artists released disco inspired albums and songs and i loved it! coming back to the main point, they are my ult group and artists. they bring a lot of joy to my life that i never felt before with another artist.

Of course I meant N and A they are very lovely and has great chemistry, I’m glad N found someone like her and am glad you liked their story, for me C did too many bad things even if she apologize she shouldn’t get what she want that easily even though N forgave her and gave her hope that maybe in the future they can be, I do still have a little feeling for their relationship maybe I like toxic characters 😂 or maybe because I was really hoping they will end up together on season one and wasn’t expecting someone new, I’m also glad they added a lesbian character in an Indian show that’s why I’m so invested in the series and enjoyed it even if some people find it cringey or even rushed and thank you for your review 🔥

Oh, okay, good, good, phew.

Haha, I don't think it's necessarily a matter of liking toxic characters if you sympathize with C and still ship them, the show tried pretty hard to make you forgive her and want them together even after everything. As you said, this is something they've built up since season 1, and they've shown us C's feelings and interiority this whole time. That just builds a natural investment and interest (which is why I always say it matters who the leads are and who gets screentime).

For sure, it was great to see this character written into in an Indian series from the start. I have to confess, as cool as it's been to see the influx of international media on the big streamers, it's always disappointing when it pretty much rules out queer content. I think India's actually doing better and better with their media, since we have the various recent movies and then shows like this and Four More Shots, Guilty Minds, Call My Agent: Bollywood, maybe not so much Hush Hush after that ending, lol (Juhi betrayed me :<), overall it's a very encouraging shift.

And aww, cringey isn't even in my vocabulary, I'll a million times like something more for trying than giving up and going for cynicism out of self-consciousness, it's so brave. Hopefully the show continues to lean into the cheesiness, even for the hets!

Robot Chicken #33: “Sausage Fest” | October 15, 2006 – 11:30PM | S02E15

I didn't mind this one as much as I thought I would. Huh.

The first sketch of length is the CEO of Burger King is being stalked by THE Burger King, which at the time was a television ad campaign featuring a guy in a creepy plastic king mask showing up places to give them burger king or stuff like that. I have no idea if they're still doing this in commercials. Anyway, the sketch briefly references the scene from Psycho where the dude falls down the stairs. The CEO shoots the Burger King and unmasks him, only to find out that it was his own son. It ends ironically as an supposed actual Burger King ad, featuring live-action, seemingly real Burger King displayed. It's the only reason anyone should buy Burger King: as a joke. Just look at those fries. They be droopin’.

The next sketch of length is about a guy in Heaven reading the book of his life, which is blank. But St. Peter or whoever explains that he has to ask the book a question about his life and that the answer will appear. He asks less-than-meaningful questions, like how long a 6-foot-tall brick wall made out of bricks of all the shit he ever shit out in his lifetime would be. I remember a similar sketch on SNL that I like a little better.

Li'l Hitler is a running sketch where we see Hitler as a school child, taking over other children's desks. Not as egregiously cringey as most Hitler jokes, at least it's sorta satire I guess.

Then there's Heathcliff suing Garifled the cat, which turns into a brawl for some reason. Jokes are lopsidedly about Garfield sucking. There are almost zero references to actual Heathcliff lore. Come on, have the Cadillac Cats show up or something! Have him strap on a Ham hat before he uses one to club Garfield with! JEEZ!

There's a sketch about a giraffe sinking in quicksand and we get a little title card explaining each stage of grief he's going through. This is almost like an animated Far Side cartoon. I did a cursory search for “Far Side giraffe quicksand” and found plenty of quicksand and giraffe comics but none with this specific premise. Good for them! They came up with a Far Side!

The show-stopper is a parody of the X-Men movie where all the X-Men are killed so they have to get the recruits from Police Academy to fill in. They got the real Michael Winslow because what the hell else would he be doing? They also got Marion Ramsey to reprise her role. She died last year. Nobody told me!

Anyway, this episode isn't so bad. I don't love Robot Chicken and none of it makes me laugh out loud, but this one has some better-than-average stuff in it.

EPHEMERA CORNER

It’s been a while since I gave you a youtube to chew on, yeah? I kept coming up dry when I searched for stuff. This is actually from last week’s [AS] but let’s roll with it. It’s fun!

MAIL BAG

did you ever watch spongebob squarepants? I hear the guy who made it dropped on the deck and flopped liked a fish (died).

I liked the first season but wasn’t a regular at all, and now I find the amount of it so daunting. Plus, I don’t wanna flop like a fish! I like my fish

[nerdy-talks]

Ok i have a couple of questions regarding the mangas you’ve read:

1.)for AoharuxMachinegun, what do you think of the last chapter? For me I didn’t like it bc it felt rushed especially how the blond dude and the green haired dude relationship problem got resolved. Also who do you ship from there?

2.)for Tokyo ghoul/re, what do think about the anime? A lot of Tokyo ghoul fans didn’t like the anime bc it detour away from the manga and the plot became odd… also what’s your thoughts on the manga and how it end?

3.)Black butler, what was your reaction when you found out that ciel has a twin brother? And what was your reaction when Agni ( the servant of the Indian prince) death? For me, everything was too much🥲… also what’s your thoughts on the anime?

4.)for Karneval, whose your favourite ship? Also I wish the English finish updating the manga bc the Japanese version is finish ad I’ve been waiting a long time for the translation.

5.)for vampire knight , ok so what’s your opinion on yuki, kaname, and zero weird ass and disappointing ending? Like I’m I the only one that was in disbelief that she chooses both of them and have kids with both them and that their children are lovers? Like why?

6.)for magi, what’s your thoughts on alibaba and morgianna relationship? For me I didn’t like how someone had to tell alibaba that morgiana likes him for him to start dating her. I don’t know it just didn’t seem fleshed out compare to morigana and hakyuu relationship.

7.)for Kiss him not me, did you see the side story with nanashima (blond haired dude) and shinomiya (brown haired dude that shows bottom vibes)? What’s your thoughts on it?

Ok that’s it! Sorry I wrote to long it’s just hard to find people who reads a lot of the same mangas as I’ve read.

Please don't apologize, anon! I genuinely appreciate your question(s), so thank you very much for sending this to me (:

Before I begin... Unfortunately, I have not finished/caught up with Magi or Kiss Him, Not Me! so I cannot properly answer those specific questions at this moment in time. So I seriously apologize for that ):

I also haven't caught up with the Karneval manga (I need to soooo badly, though!) But I have watched the anime a few times already. So I can at least answer that question lol

Karneval : I always liked Gareki X Nai in a "brotherly" sort of way. Like... the adorable little brother who unintentionally annoys their moody older brother lol And from what I've read (and watched), I do like Nai and Karoku together. But again, not in a "romantic" way. Note : Yogi is my favorite character <3

Aoharu X Machinegun : I wish this series was longer purely because I like it so much lol I didn't necessarily mind the last few chapters. But with any manga or story in general, I'm not a fan of rushed endings or rushed reconciliations. As far as ships... If Hotaru was not a minor, I would ship her with Matsuoka. I still do in an innocent/friendly way, but definitely not romantic. So honestly, I think I have to say Matsuoka and Yukimura. Note : Yukimura is my top favorite character :3

Tokyo Ghoul Re: : Overall, I really enjoyed the Tokyo Ghoul/Tokyo Ghoul Re: anime. But I definitely do wish they made Tokyo Ghoul Re: longer and stuck with the manga. The best way I can put it = I watched Tokyo Ghoul Re: before I read it, and I was a bit confused at certain parts because it was rushed and I felt like important information wasn't included. Which was confirmed after I read Tokyo Ghoul Re:. So in that regard... Yep, I prefer the manga. As far as how it ended, my one "complaint" is that I wish there was more solid information regarding Takizawa. Just leaving it at "his whereabouts are unknown" was very disappointing to me. He deserved better than that, in my opinion ^^"

Black Butler : I hope you don't mind, anon... but I'm gonna go on a little tangent here. I still love Black Butler and I always will, but I used to be a huge Black Butler fangirl back in the day (not the obnoxiously cringey kind, just the "silently fangirl irl and then go online to act out terribly OOC roleplays with close friends and write borderline trash fanfics" kind lol). So I have a lot to say, especially regarding the anime xD

When it was revealed that Ciel actually has a twin, a lot of things came together and made sense. Especially with different scenes that were depicted throughout the series. Like in Book of Circus/Noah's Arc Circus when "Ciel" was shown inside the cage, yet it looked like Ciel was also up on the altar being sacrificed. That's obviously just one example, but you get my point lol

Agni's death was sooooooo sad ): I liked Agni for several reasons, two of the biggest reasons being : 1. his utter devotion and extreme care for Soma and 2. The fact that Sebastian seemed to genuinely respect Agni. I mean... If you get a demon's respect, then I'm pretty sure you're golden haha xD But in all seriousness... The fact that Agni died protecting Soma really says it all. To borrow Sebastian's catchphrase : Agni was simply one Hell of a khansama </3

Regarding the anime : I really, truly wish they would make more seasons or OVAs or movies or something that follow the manga. I think Book of the Atlantic was animated beautifully, and I also loved Book of Circus and Book of Murder. Oh, and of course I loved the OG Black Butler, good ol' Season One. I remember there was a lot of controversy and hatred towards Season Two... But I honestly enjoyed it lol Yes, it did stray completely away from the manga and yes, it wasn't as good as the main storyline. But I felt a lot of feels when watching Season Two. I also had a lot of fun roleplaying with friends back then and writing fanfics and crack headcanons for Claude, Alois, and the others.

But yes... If I can have one wish, I would wish for more Black Butler in anime form that follows the manga c:

Vampire Knight : yeahhhhh..... Please excuse my language lovely anon and anyone else who may be reading this, but that is all kinds of fucked up, in my humble opinion lol I know people are into lots of different things, and that's great. Absolutely zero judgement here, you do whatever makes you happy. I also completely understand that Vampire Knight is a work of fiction, that Yuki and Kaname aren't real so they can't actually be related, and that the children Yuki had with Zero and Kaname are also fictional characters who don't exist in the real world so that makes their relationship non-existent. But come on, man.... Really? Why?? Lol

For context : I was probably around 14ish when I first started watching Vampire Knight. Yes, I'm an old geezer ;n; (not really, but I feel that way sometimes haha xD) It's a series I stumbled upon after I had finished Death Note, because I was looking for cheap anime DVDs I could purchase on Amazon. After reading the synopsis, I figured "why not". So for less than $10, I was able to pick up the first Volume of Vampire Knight (I own the complete collection of Vampire Knight and Vampire Knight Guilty on DVD, and there's a total of 6 Volumes/cases. If that doesn't make sense, please let me know and I'll just post a picture of them since that would probably be easier lol)

Anyway! Once it arrived, I got pulled into the story fairly quickly. That lead me to purchase the other DVDs until I slowly accumulated the entire series. In between, I had also started collecting the manga too. And even though it was quite a long time ago, I specifically remember ordering the boxset for the last part of the manga right before I finished the anime. Because I thought "I've enjoyed the anime so much, I need all of the manga too!"

But when I saw the scene where Kaname locks lips with Yuki, and it's revealed that they're siblings... The disappointment and disgust I felt was immeasurable xD

Personally, I preferred Yuki and Zero together anyway. But I would have been able to fully accept Kaname and Yuki ending up together.... Just... Why make them relatives?

Even though I own the manga, I honestly never finished reading it because of that. But I did read the wiki pages extensively and I certainly heard a fair share of rumors/spoilers lol (I actually heard the familial ties between Kaname and Yuki are even worse in the manga, so I'm kinda glad I didn't finish it) I know YukiXKaname's kid and YukiXZero's kid are a "thing", but didn't YukiXKaname's kid also have the hots for Zero at some point, too? I think I remember reading that somewhere before? Either way.... Not my cup of tea ^^"

I had a dream we were at some sort of event. There were drinks being poured and food being served. It looked sort of like as you were walking through an airport with all the different bars and restaurants. But there were also lectures going on. Very weird. Anyway, I was with my mom’s side of the family, many of them anyway. I saw you with your wife, sort of at the last minute. My aunt told my sister to bring her card to the bartender to pay for your entire bill. You had to of known it was me. I watched you get up from your chair and pretend to take a picture of something above me, maybe a TV screen or something with the score of the game. I flipped you off in the background, and without making eye contact you gave me this awkward quick wave so that she wouldn't see. I suddenly got this phone call from a pharmacist. I walked away to answer it, and the line cut out. I got another call from her on a different line, but this time it’s clearly a butt dial. I didn't hang up though, I just kept saying “hello? Hello?” because I saw you standing where I left to take the call. I walked back as I hung up. I don't even remember what I said, but I knew you wouldn't leave without talking to me, so I kept walking. I knew you’d follow me without saying a single word. I found this weird place outside that looked like a stairway that had lost its concrete stairs over time. All that was left were the railings alongside the sides of the buildings and very little of the stairs next to them. I started climbing that, and you started climbing the one on the other side. I was going to stop at a landing, but I saw her walking around, clearly looking for you, right below. I kept going, two more floors, and then I stopped looking for a landing. We were suspended above the broken staircase, probably 5 feet apart, at least 3 floors up. I asked, “what do you want?” to which you say something along the lines of “I want to know if I'm wasting my time with other ‘ladies’ when what we had was fixable.” Ladies? You never spoke like that, so it was a little cringey. What’s even more cringey is that ladies was plural and you're already married. Who else are you trying with? How could you still be? What took you so long? It's been 8 years. (It's been only 4 months since you last added me though.) You said that you and the swim team get along fine now and there isn't any bad beef. The swim team? What the fuck do they have to do with anything? Who the fuck was on the swim team? Did you cheat on me with even more people than I thought and I'm just finding out now? Is it a metaphor? I saw her walking around down below us, too dumb to even think of the possibility that we’re above her. Of course I would want to get some elevation. Why would I stay within reach? I didn't even stay within reach of you. If you reached out to me you'd risk falling 3 stories down.
