I talked to my aunt and she helped me make a plan for the next two years.#well what actually happened was I asked her for help and we made a pros and cons list of dropping out#and well. staying at school had some major pros that going home didn’t#so then we made a plan#about my classes and about my job and where I might live. we went through everything#my aunt is good with things like that. I love her a lot#and she is going to help me#i felt really alone for a while like I couldn’t ask anyone for help#but I can#I love my aunt so much#I love my uncle too#and my mom#but my aunt is really really helping me right now#also i taught my aunt what ‘’locked in’ means and she won’t stop saying it#she renamed my group chat with her and my uncle to ‘LOCKED IN 💕🙌’ lmao#anyway sorry for talking so much in the tags I figured probably no one wanted to read a long post but you can skip the tags if you want to

If you're taking prompts: He Xuan (reluctantly) trying to soothe a sad (drunk) Hua Cheng?
next time He Xuan will be checking exactly how potent the divine wine Shi Qingxuan gifts him is before offering to share
#tgcf#heaven official's blessing#hua cheng#he xuan#there's only enough room here for one miserable calamity and black water has dibs on it#crimson rain needs to get his shit together because black water did NOT sign up for this#imagine he xuan already being exasperated needing to deal with a drunk sobbing hua cheng#(HORRIFYING he didn't even know crimson rain possessed things like ''feelings'')#but then his stupid fucking sabre starts crying too! what the fuck! get him out of here he'd rather go hang around sqx again over this!#no one is ever going to speak of this night ever ever again#it never happened#debatable who hates it more in retrospect#my art#in other news work has decided that rather than get easier after the weekend it would get WORSE#so i am back to watching cute puppy shows and drawing in order to turn my brain off#managed to get another chunk of my fic written fueled by pure unrelenting fury at coworkers though!

While I'm curious about the other's dreams in Book 7, a part of me is mostly looking forward to overall shenanigans with the Dream Team and their assigned overblot buddies!
Especially since it looks like we're revisiting past twstunes.
-Jamil and Octavinelle is always funny AND a recipe for disaster;
-I can already hear Azul complaining about Savanaclaw's weather, not to mention his overall lack of stamina and how Book 2's twstunes are all either chase sequences or Magift;
-Leona painting the roses. Or helping bake a tart. He can't even escape because then dream Riddle and Sebek will team up and yell at him.
(More rambling under the cut)
Really hoping the Heartslabyul dream sequence is just extra chaotic. Maybe everyone already knows it's a dream, maybe the blot becomes even more dangerous. Maybe Malleus makes an appearance.
Part of me wants Cater to get a new card. I love Trey, but people often forget that Cater is also an important friend of Riddle's, so getting him to be the one to snap Riddle out of the dream would be great!
Maybe we can get cards for Trey AND Cater (maybe Chen'ya too), since both Tweels are getting cards...
Also I need Deuce's sequence to be Rabbit Fest again. We already have outfits for both Silver, Ortho and Grim, so we only need ones for Leona, Sebek and Ace (and even then Sebek and Silver often wear matching outfits,so you really only have to think about Leona and Ace). Idia's tablet also gets a ribbon. There's also a gang fight.
I just need Leona to have the worst time possible in Heartslabyul dreams.
Bonus:
Ortho, after we finish Savanaclaw's dream sequence: Alright, now it's time for our next dream! And you know what that means!
Silver: Only one more dorm before we face Lord Malleus again?
Sebek: We have to deal with Ace now?
Idia: I can't handle Mr. Zero EQ (A.K.A Riddle), Extrovert Extraordinaire (A.K.A Cater) and TREY in the same dream?
Yuu and Grim, holding baseball bats: We can FINALLY punch Riddle's abusive mom in the face?
Everyone: ...
Jack: I'm sure she's not that bad...
Yuu: She is the OG Red Tyrant.
Grim: Who yelled at Trey's parents for 5 HOURS because they gave her kid a SLICE of a strawberry tart! WHO DOES THAT?!?!
Leona: Welp, that explains a LOT...
#I kinda want Leona and Malleus competing over who can paint more roses#and an obligatory tea break#but the unbirthday party just got more crazy#waiting for obligatory “all my homies hate mrs. rosehearts moment”#jack's dream is just cactus wonderland#is riddle going to deck malleus in the final fight#since he's the last dreamer we'll see#and the previous dreamer helps the other one wake up via a pep talk#or straight up violence#a zettaflare could be good too#also something something riddle and malleuh both were isolated and the former's dreams can help us understand the latter's#the main difference is that Malleus has Lillia Sebek and Silver. and his Grandma. so things are easier to manage. For now#while riddle's mom actively pushes riddle's friends away#twst#riddle rosehearts#trey clover#ortho shroud#idia shroud#cater diamond#jamil viper#malleus draconia#silver vanrouge#sebek zigvolt#leona kingscholar#jack howl#ruggie bucchi#ace trappola#deuce spade#azul ashengrotto

WHAT IF KIT'S GOTTEN UP BEFOREHAND TO SNEAK OUT AND LEAVE ON A MISSION ON HIS OWN OR SOMETHING AND JUST SNEAKS A GLANCE AT TY BEFORE HE LEAVES TO MAKE SURE HE'S SLEEPING and also cause he's a gorgeous angel and he loves him sm that he's leaving him alone and risking himself instead for whatever reason
#like if this happens and ty gets to know he'll be so so mad??#it would be quite the scene if Ty manages to catch him just before he sneaks and they have a LOUD fight and kiss#a messy confession of pent up frustration and feelings#Kit would be like: I WAS LEAVING ALONE CAUSE I DIDNT WANT U GETTING HURT/I WANTED TO PROTECT YOU AND RISKING MYSELF IS MUCH EASIER ANWAYS#ty would literally be like bitch wtf we're in this together I LOVE YOU TOO YOU IDIOT#twp#alternatively imagine kit does actually manage to sneak out and disappear and Ty wakes up to a cold bed#that devastation would have me die ngl#anyways i've gotten so ahead of myself but one can dream#kit herondale#ty blackthorn#the wicked powers#the last king of faerie#tlkof#kit x ty

okay. just rambling here, but, i think armand took more than just the end of the interview away from daniel.
we got that little moment about that night, saying 'you asked me to' to louis. 'you asked me to take this from you, you could not live with it,' leading into, 'i look after you when you cannot look after yourself, i make those choices for you.'
we know that during the chase and devil's minion era, daniel was an addict, who was, by his own admission, slowly killing himself. he was also addicted to blood.
it's really not too far to make the jump, if devil's minion occurred, that armand made the choice to step in, in his own mind, for daniel's best interests. i know this isn't a unique jump to make, but; again with armand's "i look after him when he cannot look after himself" continual reiteration, i think it's a fair assumption.
he can also replace and blur memories, which makes the discussion of alice and paris -- why the dessert from that night? -- and how immediate and sincere his answer of "she wanted to say yes, but she didn't trust you. you hadn't given her a reason to." this could be the night he took them away, replaced himself with alice, planted something similar for her to start the relationship, then step back and watch it fall. and i think the thing that stands out there is just how tender he is while saying it. there's an undercurrent of something else entirely underneath, it isn't a dig at daniel in the moment, despite the pushing earlier in the scene.
and then in s1, when louis say to daniel, "i'd give it to you now." and the cut to armand, still in disguise, and his micro-expression of horror, the way he stiffens and looks away... and the little moment of what i read as conflict when daniel says no. his jump to "may i be excused?" i can't tell in the moment, if he's horrified about the offer itself, the fact that it is louis offering to turn daniel rather than himself, or the fact that daniel denies it. because i don't think armand could actually let daniel die if this was the case.
the disguise itself-- why pretend to be rashid? i think part of it is to try and hide behind a human persona to keep those memories at bay; especially given the little moments of flashback that got triggered by little mannerisms. i can't decide whether they're intentional pushes or not, whether armand wanted/wants daniel to remember on his own, or wants to keep it under wraps. i think, even if he believes he doesn't want it to come forward, he truly does deep down.
and once he's revealed himself as armand, the way he gazes at daniel, his beautiful boy. the continued "our boy", from both he and louis, the "he's still in there, somewhere..."
and i think "our boy" is also really interesting, because why would daniel be armand's boy, based solely on the moments that louis initially remembered? armand didn't really have any emotional connection to daniel that night, sure, he saved him, but that doesn't really mean anything; he saved daniel for louis, not for daniel's sake.
and, jumping back "our boy,[...] he's still in there somewhere"... there's implication that louis might know about it? again, i don't think this is related to the original interview, or at least, limited to it? i don't have anything concrete here, just vibes, but again, why is armand's boy still in there somewhere?
and sure, some of these are reaches and i don't think i'm necessarily right, but god it would be deliciously awful if i was.
#tvc book spoilers#meta#iwtv#interview with the vampire#devil's minion#daniel molloy#armand#iwtv spoilers#i'm spitballing here and also haven't reread qotd in a while (about to start it now) so details are. hazy.#i'm also definitely not the first person to have had these thoughts i just needed to get them all down#anyway. think about the drama.#there's also some fun stuff there about armand potentially sabotaging daniel's relationships because 'if i can't have him no one can'.#we know he's possessive as hell. we know he's controlling. what human could stand up to a vampire influencing their life?#him monitoring and managing daniel at a distance. checking on daniel's thoughts at all moments of the day and night.#gently nudging daniel to be more nocturnal to make it easier to keep an eye on him.#i should. probably write something about this huh. it's clearly embedded in my brain. the inherent toxicity of vampire relationships <3#and also. the little tale of the body thief reference too. like. is that going to effect daniel?#we have precedent for an old man to be put into a young man's body and turned into a vampire. why not here?#additional essay in the tags sorry hjgdfjh#it's late. this has been on my mind for ages and i'm so brainfoggy right now. forgive me if none of this makes sense

Speaking of "The City on the Edge of Forever," I've been thinking about how my femslash Spirk AU winds out through the canon TOS episodes, interacts with gender expectations of the show, etc, and am mentally organizing episodes by how drastically affected they'd be.
I'm also thinking of S'paak hiding her ears beneath a beanie in 1930 :P
#s'paak and jessica in a piece of the action too! damn. i didn't even think of their mobster suit chic era when i was planning but...#still. poor s'paak freezing while trying to build a computer out of 1930 materials and also passing as fully human AND pining#iirc there's canonically only one bed in their flop (no really) and she's torn between staying as far away as possible when they sleep#(for lesbian angst reasons) or huddling near her (for lesbian angst + living space heater reasons)#i think s'paak is obviously ice-cold when jessica's skin brushes hers but she blatantly lies about being fine and stays 6 in away at night#jessica (exhausted but trying to think of how to convince her. suddenly struck by genius): i don't understand why you're being illogical :(#s'paak: *affronted cat look*#also poor s'paak not only has to watch jess fall for edith but keep them from smashing into homophobia in the usa c. 1930#on the bright side both jessica and s'paak look very cute and i think s'paak finds she likes the music of the time#it once slips out when all three of them are talking that s'paak is musical and when edith is like 'oh what do you play?' s'paak is '...'#and jessica promptly says: oh she's a wonderful harpist. the first time i heard her play with some - uh - friends i stopped in the hall#and stood outside the door and just listened because i was on my way to somewhere else but it was so beautiful#edith: oh how lovely <3 i hope you'll be able to find an instrument to play someday - if things get better. i really do believe they will.#s'paak: ...i hope so. (and then edith goes away and with some not quite concealed exasperation s'paak is like#i have never understood how you manage to manufacture narratives out of nothing. and jessica just says 'well it's easier#if you take something that really happened and change a few details. it was your lyre instead of a harp of course.#and not all friends but just the rec room on *makes a gesture obviously meant to mime a starship. possibly with sound effects*#but i did get distracted and stand listening until our... mutual friend wanted to know what was taking me so long to get to the hospital.'#s'paak: .......i see.)#anghraine babbles#fic talk#fic talk: the lesbian spock agenda#s'paak#jessica kirk#star peace#genderbending#c: i object to intellect without discipline#c: who do i have to be#otp: the premise

wrote out plans and stared at my calendar, putting my hands together and mutter a quiet "you do need a break"
#i am#insanely bad at time management#ive been actively burnt out since 2025 i think#i have the mindset and ideas as the 19 y/o me but energy and productivity of late 20s#meaning. my current hands and energy can't keep up the expectations and hype of the better past me#but both of me hope. and that's where it's going downhill#LMAO#I talked with my mom#very hard talk. lots of tears involved. but I just gotta work harder#its a weird feeling bcuz im actively sabotaging and healing myself what the hell man#really /really/ need to shake off the guilt of doing nothing and the habit of doing everything so i don't feel like im lagging behind#it feels like im being swallowed every day#idk what doing but i know what im doing#im self aware but im not enough#GRAH#long story short. im going to FORCE MYSELF to let go a few things and take shit one step at a time#AND STOP. JOINING. MORE. OBLIGATIONS.#burnt the contract and prob pissed off my boss but we balling#i think i just dont want to feel#dont want everything to catch up#but that just leads to accumulation and when i do stop and pause everything just crash over#with an intensity that i cannot bear but have to sit it through#being in 20s is weird....i thought it would be easier...in same capacity it is but other times no....#doesn't help with the *gesture* current state of things too#im sorry i dont mean to vent but. im. idk just felt like sharing#to more people than i should bcuz duh its gomz#ASDHGK#anyways i will now forget about this by inhaling my sushi plate#having inari set :3#gummmyspeaks

Which member of Team Natsu do you think would be the most challenging for a bad guy to hold captive?
The woman who casually rips holes in the fabric of time and space on the daily? The man who can freeze anything he looks at? Or the girl who gets her power by breathing?
(Assuming anti-magic devices aren’t in play)
oooooo Anon you have given me a mental treat with this one XD
Magic suppression is definitely a game changer, though without it (even assuming the mage in question isn't magically drained/exhausted, and possibly kept that way) I think the power of heavy duty materials still go a long way.
That said, my answer would have to be Erza. She's a tank *and* a swiss-army knife. There's no way she can't summon the exact armor or weapon needed for the job... even if the weapon in question is just lock-picks. There's no way to plan for her vulnerabilities without knowing her entire inventory. Now, there might be a way to circumvent this by simply giving her no room to summon anything or available hand to use it, though it's hard to say if Erza would still be able to, say, displace a bunch of chains by summoning armor in-between them and her body. Since she requips directly onto herself anyway, her control is proven to be immaculate. Plus she's just all around scary and badass XD
Next in line of difficulty might actually be Wendy. Her buffs and enchantments can be a game-changer, and as you mentioned, she can pretty much always have access to her element. (Though I do imagine that, say, some dank dungeon wouldn't be that magic-rich sky so I wouldn't really count on that as a big boost.) Although wind itself might not be that effective if any metals are in play. It would mostly be the array of enchantments, whether that means giving herself an inhuman strength boost previously unexpected or enchanting up a debuff on whatever is holding her. (However to this point, baby Wendy as we know her might not be this versatile yet.)
Gray is close in my internal ranking, because he can make anything, but unlike Erza he has to *make* it, and if he doesn't have both hands available, then it might not be as sturdy. Plus there's stuff that won't break from the cold, and would be more durable than ice in a clash. They might have to get a certain type of alloy/material to withstand the flash-freeze, but honestly Gray doesn't have as much raw strength as Erza or Natsu anyway so there's still the breaking issue.
Natsu is definitely a beast of a guy but if he's up against fireproof and highly durable materials then he would be out of luck. (And they might have to be magicked to be fireproof, but I think that's fairly doable.) Once the brute-forcing option fails he's a bit cooked.
Then poor Lucy is really easy if you get her away from her keys. The trick might be if somebody like Virgo or Loke summons themselves to mount a rescue, but that also falls into any Fairy Tail rescue which could apply to all of them. (And I'm assuming that if she's separated from her keys then locating her would be tricky.)
Oh and Happy and Charle would also be really easy to hold captive. Poor little guys.
#fairy tail#ask#anon#admittedly I have thought about these things before#i love this trope lol#I was *this close* to doing a mass team natsu capture for whumptober but then went for a simpler idea#but its on that back burner....#now magic suppressants of some sort does make this a lot easier lol#or getting them while they're down and making them stay down :)))#but I'm assuming the spirit of this is who can get out if they are able to manage as they normally do so#also disregarding mental blocks#wendy might be capable of it but liable to panic a bit more easily#and then there's whatever circumstance adding fuel to that fire#ANYWAY#swiss army knife erza is just so cracked#if I wanted to think TOO hard about it then the fact that she de-summons her clothes#might imply she can catalogue anything she's touching and then magic them *away*#which would be totally cracked#not sure I wanna think about that one too hard XD

Truly the hottest part of kink play is the trust.
Like. Yeah, hearing my partner say they want me to make them my doll to use and play with however I want is hot as fuck, but the fact that they want to give up all their control to me because they have total unwavering trust in me to take care of them and not cross their boundaries makes me feral
#trust is hot as fuck!!!#they trust me so much!!!#they give me so much power and control without hesitation!!!#and the reverse is true too#i trust them completely#i still have a lot of religious trauma that makes it hard to not feel super guilty about how much i like sex#and from the *moment* we started dating they've always been super considerate of that#they've been patient while i struggled to actually voice my wants#they never second guess me or try to push me (unless ive actually asked them to)#they put in the work to prove over and over that im safe with them#im just. constantly in awe that i found a partner who manages to effortlessly meet my emotional needs#both during sex and just our relationship in general#there's still *a lot* of conversations and i still have days where the Guilt strikes#but they're patient!!!#sorry im gushing about them a lot lately#i just love them so much *and they're so fucking hot*#we literally had a date night where we just cuddled and went down a list of kinks so we could talk about what we do/dont like#and what we mught want to try#and being able to be more clinical about what i want and why made it easier to talk through#and they've learned things about themself too!!!#im so proud everytime they ask to try something new#*Last week they said they wanted to try cnc*#which we've talked about a little when we went down that kink list#but i could tell they weren't 100% sure of it#but they've been doing research (also hot as fuck tbh) and they want to try it and i am!!!! so fucking excited!!!!!#my post#lesbian nsft#mildly nsft#queer nsft

remembered that post about the loss of accents in dav and i do have to agree that it was a shame everyone is essnetially either britsh or american (or spanish) because then we go to places like the anderfels and nevarra and rivain and beyond a few characters, i cant really gauge what does someone from this place really sounds like. and the issue with that is that then you have the anderfels, which is mostly populated by wardens and we know wardens conscript from all corners of the world so i'm standing there like ok who here is actually an anders and who isnt
#its mostly that#i dont want someone from the extreme north of thedas#to sound almost exactly like someone from ferelden which is allll the way in the south#i already find it a bit weird that native kirkwallers like meredith have a british accent too which is the same. as fereldens#but then in dai they managed to spread it out more so its easier to know who's from where#and then dav its once again why do we all sound the same

Hey, hey, hey!
Employees who are friends have a better time on shift together, making them more productive. Stop separating employees who are having fun
#at least in my experience#i get a lot more done faster when I'm with with coworkers i see as friends#because we actually communicate easier than if we don't get along#I'm also upset because my manager on Saturday moved my two friends because we were having fun#we got everyone in and the guy who hired said it was the fastest the lines gone in a few years#but supervisor d thought that we were having too much fun#so my two friends were moved to the west and south sides while i stayed east#why do higher ups and employers do that?#I'd think that anything goes as long as we're professional amd get the job done
