#when the writer reads and knows their shit>>

♡ got wood? - nic love island s7

based on ep 12, black y/n, cussing, kitty kat eating, dirty talk, pet names, kissing, ass slapping lol… repeated words? i’m not a good writer so pls spare me, this turned out a lot longer than intended, NOT PROOFREAD!

you stand next to olandria and huda in a cropped blue flannel with extremely short jean shorts, a furry top and furry boots. you cheer and clap as your couple, nic, goes up. he blows a kiss towards you while he grabs the fake axe.

“which boy is actually pining for someone else?” he reads off. ace hums loudly. nic looks at ace, “target acquired.” he says and shoots ace with the machine. he walks over to the axe to grind station and lays down.

you raise your brows softly meanwhile ace looks at you with an evil grin, “my boy nic, he’s been seeming to be a little excited with… you know, iris coming into the villa. so i think iris would be great, wouldn’t it?”

you laugh softly and nic looks at you, “sorry, baby!” he shouts. you wave him off as iris walks over. you shake your head, watching they do the challenge.

“it wasn’t a pleasant sight but it’s a challenge! i did have to grind on jeremiah so…” you say with a laugh at the confessional.

“okay! would you like to pick a beaver from my basket?” paige asks nic. he looks towards the guys, “i need yalls help.”

“number three, my lord!” taylor says.

“two! two, my lord!” ace says.

nic picks up number two and turns the name tag around, “y/n! come here, beautiful!” he says with a big smile. he walks over and picks you up. you scream and go into the cabin with him.

he shuts the door and puts you down, “hey,” he smirks. you smile softly as he grabs your ass and pulls you closer. his lips connect to yours, slapping your ass softly. he grunts into the kiss while you wrap your arms around his neck.

his tongue enters yours, “all mine,” he growls. you bite his bottom lip when you pull away. nic shakes his head, “come ‘ere,” he mutters. he pulls you back into a very steamy kiss. you hear mainly ace and chelley shouting in the back.

“it sounds nasty in there!” ace shouts. nic pulls away and fixes your hair, “i got you, baby… ready?” he asks. you nod, squealing as he throws you over his shoulder.

you two walk out and everybody shouts, “oh my God!” “oh shit!” “nic gettin some tonight!”

nic flexes and slaps your ass hard after, your feet kick. you roll your eyes and giggle shyly, covering your face. nic daps all the guys up, like a couple of teenagers.

later that night, the tension of the challenge died down and the islanders were all calmed down. you sit with olandria and huda when nic walks over. he smiles at you all, “i’m just gonna…” he grabs your hand softly and lifts you onto your feet.

“steal this girl for a quick chat. don’t miss her too much,” he says to huda and olandria. you wave bye as his arm slithers around your shoulders.

“you look good,” he kisses your temple. you smile, “stop..” you wore a two piece blue and white stripped outfit with white heels and your hair fell onto your shoulders.

you two walk into speakeasy. low red lighting. velvet seats. fake bottles. music plays softly in the speakers. you nod your head, “wow… you know, this place feels a lot warmer when i’m here with you.”

nic furrows his brows and sits next to you, “who else have you’ve been in here with?” he asks gently and twirls your hair. you smile, “chelley.”

he groans, “noo! chelley’s stealing my girl,” he says. you smile sweeter, “be quiet… hey nurse, check my temp. i’m getting a little warmer,” you tease.

nic rests his hand on your waist, pulling you closer. “yeah?” you nod and stare up at him, “lock the door…” you whisper. nic hops up and locks the door, dimming the lights a bit. he sits back down, “i need you.”

“work for it.”

nic holds onto your thighs as your legs are thrown over his shoulders. he stares up at you, your skirt rode up to your waist. he sucks on your bud. hungry.

your head is thrown up, low shallow breaths coming out. nic licks from your hole up to your clit, “you taste so fuckin sweet…” he growls. you tremble as your legs close on his head. he continues to stare at you and spreads your legs apart, “cmon.”

he moans into you, tongue moving in lazy circles around your clit before flattening out and flicking it softly. he lets go of your thighs and drags his hands up to your top. he rubs your nipples through your shirt.

you twitch, “nic!” you say, a little too loud. you cover your mouth quickly. it was overwhelming— wet, hot, messy. his tongue slides down to fuck your hole, then back up, teasing and devouring you.

“been thinkin’ about this since you walked into this villa.”

you finally look back down at him, your fingers claw into the couch, “mm.. nic— oh my gosh… baby!” you squeal softly.

he nods, “that’s right,” he mutters while coming up and rubbing your clit with his thumb. “say my name when you cum on my tongue,” he says before going back down and eating you.

you cum hard, you blacked out for a second. thighs trembling, hips lifting off of the couch as he held you down and kept licking you through it. slow and steady until you were whimpering and twitching.

he finally comes back up, lips wet and face smug. “we have to do this again.”

you sit back up, “i hate you,” with a shy smile.

♡ girls reaction

the next morning, you were sitting at the vanity. fluffing your hair and putting on setting powder. at least, trying to keep your face neutral.

chelley turns to you, “bitch! don’t even try to act all innocent. after you came back from the little chat last night, you were glistening!”

you squeal and cover your face, “stop!”

olandria twists in her chair, her lipliner almost falling out of her hand, “you came back from speakeasy with your legs wobbly!”

you scream and slap the table, “shut up!” you laugh. huda hums, “i heard yall! me and jeremiah were just trying to pass by and we hear moans and whimpering!”

“oh my goodness!” amaya squeals.

“okay.. did he eat it or was he.. folding you?” chelley asks. you smile, “bitch… he was… devouring.”

hannah and iris shout loudly as nic walks in. olandria shushes all of the girls as he walks over, “morning, morning. how are we all?” he asks.

huda smirks, “we good.”

you smile at him while he puts your plate of food down, “here you go, baby,” he says. he kisses you, “hurry up! i wanna see you in that bikini!”

he walks out as amaya screams, “he’s hooked!”

[householdcryptid]

Cockwarming anon again! Dude… that fic was so fucking good, i’m still reeling from it. Like, read it multiple times, squealing and kicking my feet 🙈❤️❤️❤️

So, I offer you this idea as a little thank you (also apologies in advance if this sucks, i’m not a writer, i’m just extremely thirsty and bobpilled rn);

So they’re not fucking, right? But they’re also technically not not fucking.

It’s taken Bob a little while to actually process what’s going on, and what exactly he’s feeling. It takes him a little while to figure out that, sure, he’s getting comfort, but there’s something else in there, something deeper, more primal.

He develops little fixations, and right now he’s fixated on her thighs. He doesn’t know how he’s never noticed them before, how soft and supple they look. Pure comfort. He finds himself wanting to touch them at all times, and she lets him without question, of course, but it only makes him worse.

He’ll sit closer to her so his legs can press against hers as much as possible, he’ll grab them under the table at meals. He’ll even ask to lay his head on them when they’re watching movies together. Slowly escalating, pawing, rubbing his face against them like a cat, sweating, whining, drooling, until his head is enclosed between them, face pressed against against her core. Panting, shaking, eyes closed in complete bliss like he’s finally found heaven.

Just wait until he figures out that he’s a munch.

babe i know you said you arent a writer but you SHOULD be holy shit 😵‍💫 also thank you! i'm so so so glad you liked the last one 🩷🩷🩷

i'm thinking about doing a part two to this just so i can write about him getting pussy drunk tbh he deserves that. # bob reynolds is a munch

cw: rob bein a nasty lil freak, uhhhh scent kink(? kind of?), nsfw but no real sex, reader knows robby is a weirdo and is Totally into it, talks of addiction (not a lot but mentioned), short because i got sick 💔👎, hope you enjoy 😌🩷

It starts off small. It always does with Bob. One tiny thing that snowballs into an addiction, and leaves him reeling. Once upon a time it was morphine, and then worse, but now? Now it’s you.

Small things— things no one but him would notice. The way you smile when he tells you about his day, no matter how boring it is. The way your eyes sparkle in the sunlight, the way you glow.

More recently though, he can’t stop thinking about your legs. He’ll sit in the gym and watch you spar with Walker or Yelena, not understanding why the sight of their hands on you makes his skin crawl.

Instead of focusing on that feeling though, he zeroes in on your legs. The way they tense up, strike out to catch your opponent in the gut, the way they look when you have them wrapped around someones neck, pinning them to the ground.

They’re beautiful, even when you aren’t fighting. He finds himself drawn in, big warm palm sliding over the fabric of your sweats to knead at your thigh mid movie night. He isn’t trying to be a creep, isn’t making any attempt to get handsy, just wants to feel the plushness of it in his grip.

It devolves quickly. Gentle squeezes turn to fingerprint bruises that he feels genuinely awful for. You don’t ever mind, though. Your best friend is just tactile, he doesn’t know his own strength sometimes, and it’s not like you’re complaining, so why is he upset?

He stops squeezing as much, but it leaves something of a hole behind in his day to day. An ache he can’t explain, a longing that feels bone deep. Until you pull him to lay his head on your lap one day, and he’s found a new thing to be hooked on. Revels in the way the plush skin bows under his cheek, how you always end up petting through his hair. It ends up being a surefire way to put him to sleep, eventually.

It’s just too comforting. To have your attention on him so completely, your fingers in his soft curls and his cheek smushed against your soft thigh.

One day, the tower is empty, save you and Rob. He’s twitchy, strung tight like a rubber band ready to snap, skin buzzing with a power he still doesn’t understand and doesn’t think he deserves.

But you’re there, too, and that helps. Pulling him in with gentle hands, and he expects the usual. His head on your lap, your hand in his hair, but you shift. Your knees part, and you pat your tummy invitingly.

“I wanna lay down too, goofy.” You explain, laughing softly at his puzzled expression. He can’t stop staring long enough to come up with a verbal response. You’re wearing shorts, cotton boxers that pull taut at your thighs, dimpling the skin a bit, and his mouth waters.

His sigh is heavy and tremulous when he nuzzles his face against your stomach, lays flat on his front between your legs, arms wrapped up beneath your thighs, his hands splayed under your lower back.

“S’better.” He mumbles, lashes fluttering as he breathes in the scent of you. That’s where it starts, really. Your scent.

Warmth, clean sweat and a heady musk that makes him a little dizzy, he seeks it out. Noses down your tummy, wriggles southward until his face is buried between your thighs.

You giggle— honest to God giggle— and heat licks up his spine.

“Sorry-” He mutters, not making any attempt to actually pull away. “M’sorry. You smell so good,” He whispers, hands sliding to press your thighs closer around his head, nosing at your cunt through the soft material of your shorts. “S’so fuckin’ warm here.” He croaks out, just on the edge of a whine, nails biting into your supple skin.

“It’s okay, Robby,” You murmur, ever so indulgent, especially when he’s whining against your clothed core, already drooling into the fabric. “You can stay. You’re good, bubs.”

He almost sobs at the reassurance, brain going blissfully empty when you squeeze your thighs around his head gently.

He’s trembling just a little bit, huffing these shakey breaths against your core like he can’t quite catch his breath, pretty blue eyes unfocused and heavy lidded. Blissed out on just the smell and the feel of you, the way your thighs block out the sound of the room and the constant buzzing in his brain when they press to his ears.

He falls asleep like that, mouthing at your cunt through the shorts, letting out short little whimpers and huffy groans, your fingers in his hair and your thighs pressed to his ears.

You can only sigh, slip into a nice catnap as well, knowing full well the whole process will begin again when he wakes up.

Hiii, i just read your kpdh fic and it's amazing! You wrote them so good! You're like one of my fave fanfic writers (and artist, of course 🤌💖). I gotta ask though, what do you think of Rumi x Mira or the polytrix?

Thank you! I had soooo much fun writing it. Made me look back to the days when I was a bigger Loona fan. I think I have another fic idea im considering. You know how kpop idols do stupid shit for all kinds of variety content? There was this one time Loona made a harem fanfic about themselves and read it out loud. It was so fucking funny. What if I make Huntrix suffer like that ehehehehe

I tend to go for canon/implied ships in canon, unless I have a huge ick for it. So I'm actually all for Rujinu, which would mean making or reading rumira or politrix content really isn't for me. I do enjoy fanart of rumira and politrix that I run into tho. They're good sapphic ships, especially politrix. Like, i can at least see Mira being in love with both Zoey and Rumi. Have you seen how her personalized norigae(tassle thingies hanging from their waist) has both of her favorite girls? I love fierce women who are unapologetic saps.

[feralparsnip]

okay i love this movie and it also lives rent free in my head but this is SUCH A FUNNY TAKE because okay get this

the central theme of this movie, right, the one they hammer home over and over and over from the protagonist's occupation to her family history to the GOO MADE OF HUMAN TISSUE THAT EXTENDS YOUR LIFE

is this: THE OPULENCE OF THE RULING CLASS IS A MASS GRAVE

and the movie doubles down on this and doubles down on this and doubles down on this and then. and it REALLY wants to discuss the incentives for becoming a collaborator. the protagonist has the life of her mother dangled in front of her like "give us everyone else and we will spare her [lying]" and "you'll never have to personally see the mass death" etc etc and she rejects royalty and she rejects their bribes to become a collaborator and she kicks their asses and at the very end, when the protagonist has (temporarily) defended her claim to the earth and therefore staved off the execution of every single person on the planet

the movie is like teehee! rollerskating werewolf boyfriend scene! end of movie! and the tonal whiplash is SO GREAT i think it was this director just slapping the entire corporate checklist at the end as she is wont to do in her current era of work

my friend and i were talking about like corporate censorship and this reality we live in where like. every piece of art w/ a budget that is not made in a socialist country has this threat of the corporation itself changing the very heart of the narrative if that narrative is threatening to the structures that the corporation's power is based within

and it's sort of like the bury-your-gays era, right? like if the ending is a sharp enough disconnect, your audience may be able to SEE THE REAL ENDING THROUGH IT, like if you notice the dissonace, and think "this isn't the real ending to this story" in a very real way you have uncovered the uncensored ending. and i think about the trust it takes as a director or writer or whatever, to trust your audience to look at the art hard enough to see that. you know?

so it is funny to me to have a read of this movie that is like. only and entirely about the aesthetics of the film. like yes the aesthetics fuck like hell but the political content is the actual real cool shit you know?? and in this movie, for basically every part of it except the very end, they are working in CONCERT. and they're in such harmony that i think the disconnect at the end is intentional

and every time i watch it i'm like BITCH YOU NEED TO BE EXPANDING YOUR INDUSTRIAL CAPACITY. THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU WITH SPACE MAGUFFIN KNIVES. YOU ARE THE SITE OF IMPERIAL EXTRACTION AND YOU HAVE TO HUSTLE OR EVERYONE IS GONNA DIE

Here’s the thing about JUPITER ASCENDING, literally the greatest movie ever made. Is it “good,” or is it, more probably, garbage? I really don’t have the capacity to say. I’m not Saint Roger Ebert, olav hasholem, over here. I took one film class and it was about whether real stuff is, like, real, or is there even such a thing as, like, really real, man, you know?? (There isn’t. I got an A.) I’m not here to tell you if it is good. I am only a woman with eyes and ears and joy centers in my brain. Here is what I will tell you. Look at my icon. As daeontherun so rightly pointed out, my icon was both of our faces for the ENTIRE DURATION of this movie.

Do you need to know any more than that? Do you need to know any more than that you will be flooded with pure, innocent delight for two hours? Here is my feeling about this movie: it is your garbage. It is garbage for you. “Is this how straight dudes feel at the movies all the time????” I hissed at daeontherun SEVERAL times during this movie. “Like someone carefully noted down your early pubescent fantasies and then threw 100 MILLION DOLLARS at them?” 

I would describe this feeling as, like, a combination of arousal, joy, and fond knowing chagrin. “Oh you,” you find yourself thinking at Jupiter Ascending as shirtless Channing Tatum gruffly but torturedly checks his weaponry, while Sean Bean voiceover rumbles in his beautiful Northern growl about how tortured and loyal shirtless Channing Tatum is and how he needs his PACK. Ten seconds before this, Channing Tatum and Sean Bean were sexily punching each other while yelling about their emotions. “You know what I like, you crazy beautiful bastard,” you say to Jupiter Ascending, shaking your head fondly.  Mila Kunis wakes up in a beautiful dress, blinking slowly with her long gorgeous lashes. “Feel my skin,” naked Tuppence Middleton purrs at her [REDACTED 4 SPOILERS]’s clone, Mila Kunis, gently caressing her bare arm. Gugu Mbatha-Raw stands over Channing Tatum and sexily taunts him. There is a 20 minute Henson-evoking sequence about [REDACTED 4 SPOILERS BUT TRUST ME THAT IT’S AMAZING]. Eddie Redmayne flutters an elegant hand around while hoarsely gasping out sociopathic, vaguely incestuous promises in a fucking SEQUIN TITS OUT DRESSING GOWN with ARM WINGS in his EVIL SPACE CATHEDRAL THRONE ROOM!!!! “DO U LIKE DIS?” Jupiter Ascending asks, glancing shyly at you. “I MAKED IT.” “Of course I like it,” you say, overcome by joy and wonder, kissing Jupiter Ascending on the forehead. “I’ve never liked anything this much, and I love you more than anyone in the whole world.” I don’t want to be controversial, but if I had to choose between Jupiter Ascending and Citizen Kane I would immediately travel back in time, murder Orson Welles, and walk away whistling. I would cheerfully burn the entire Criterion Collection to the ground for this movie. Go see Jupiter Ascending. You’re welcome.

i’ve debated on entering this ongoing fandom etiquette conversation because, generally, i don’t think i’m articulate or groundbreaking enough to say something that someone else hasn’t already said… and i may very well regret this but …

when it comes to fic comments:

do this ^^^ not that ^^^^

i received both of these over the weekend by first time commenters on my most popular (and personally beloved) wip that is currently in the throes of a year long hiatus. i won’t get into the in-depth reasons as to why its been on hold because im not asking for pity or sympathy or whatever (the ao3 curse is real) but i am posting this because one of these comments made me want to immediately pick up my drafted chapter 20 and finish it. while the other one made me want to bury my draft in my google drive and never look at it again.

this is a familiar tale, right?? lots of fic writers have exhausted the topic of super motivating and less than motivating types of comments. but i just wanted to add context to why.

first of all, because this is my first impression of both of these readers. one is fresh and exiting and positive! the other is completely disheartening, but why?? because if we infer through the subtext of the second comment that this person is supposedly a long time reader, this is the first time they’ve chosen to interact with me. at all. so my gut reaction is “wtf, i don’t know you, what makes you think you can talk to me like this or that you are entitled to that type of information if you’ve never felt the need to tell me you liked my fic before this??”

not a great feeling tbh! to immediately dislike someone upon first impression? i kinda wanted to block them so they’d never get to read the rest when i do end up finishing the story. because i WILL finish it someday.

but SECONDLY, and this is the part that made me want to put the next chapter away forever, the blunt question of “WHY ARENT YOU POSTING 🤬” literally has the direct response of me reflecting on the shitstorm of a year i’ve had and the four addresses in twelve months, and the fights with my partner that never seem to get resolved, and my daughters health issues and her two hospital stays, and my own career upheaval and how i’m still not really in a job i truly love or feel invested in, and just SHIT!! you know?? sometimes life is shit and hobbies get put on the back burner. i don’t know how else to say this but if you are wanting an update to your favorite fic, be kind!? you don’t know what’s going on in a persons internal life so why wouldn’t you choose to be nice??

no one loves the path from you more than i do, or wants me to finish it mORE THAN I DO!!! you should assume this of every fic writer! those stories mean more to them than any reader or beta. i promise you. and having to reflect on all the conscious and subconscious reasons why i haven’t been able to work on it just makes me more disappointed in myself, which makes me not want to work on it more… and the vicious cycle continues.

so, in conclusion, that second comment up there is not something i would ever expect a person to say in such words or tone if they stopped me on the street so it should never show up in my email either.

a good rule of thumb is: comment like you just ran into the fic writer in the grocery store <3

[yandere-sins]

As the person who is the most yandere writer to ever yandere, may I humbly ask the following? How the different kind of yanderes react to darling cheating on them? (While they're still in a normal relationship and she doesnt know they are yandere yet. Tho i think for at least one of these possibilities, her cheating is what turns them into a yandere iykwim) I'm talking pathetic ones who forgive, freaks who get turned on, those who get physical etc...

I am not deserving of such honorable titles, but thank you for requesting! :D

I'm going to do the regular types, not the advanced ones, hope you don't mind! I also put some stereotypes below each type!

»»———————— ♡ ————————««

❥ Obsessive Yandere, who sees you leave that other person's house with a mix of heartbreak and jealousy while still adoring you intensely. You are positively glowing, happy, and satisfied after your one-night stand, but they can't feel as happy for you as they want. Not when it wasn't them you spent the night with. Obsessives want you to be happy—with them. They want you to have fun and do things that delight you—with them. They want to do these things to you! They are so incredibly jealous that anyone else got to touch you in ways they've been imagining for months. That someone got to make you scream and moan when it's all they ever wanted to hear from your mouth. That they got to kiss your lips, caress your skin, and fill you with pleasure—all things they've wanted to do for you!

❥ Yet, obsessives can't help but climb through your window once you come home and steal your clothes while you're showering. They smell like you, happy, sweaty, aroused. The stench of another person is almost unbearable. Yet, they keep smelling you while they get themselves off to the scent, wishing it was their own smell that stuck to your clothes. They'd never wash themselves again if they got to do what you did to a stranger last night! They would give you all you want and more, but you don't even know they exist. They are just a yandere who cums on top of your bed while you are showering peacefully, unaware that they are in your room, getting off to your stinky clothes like the pathetic dog they are. And in their foggy, orgasm-ridden mind, they think it's a good idea to wait under your bed for you to go to sleep that night so they can crawl out and show you just how good of a choice they'd be the next time you need to take the edge off.

Pathetic Yandere, Stalkers, Fans, Your new co-worker, ...

❥ Possessive Yandere, who are absolutely furious. Have they not done everything for you? Been at your beck and call for every shit you needed, and yet, you chose someone else to satisfy your sexual needs? Have you lost your mind?! Sure, you look happy, but your yan can't really find it in them to be happy for you. They annoy you with questions about who it was, how it was, and what you did until you roll your eyes and slam a door in their face to get some privacy from their invasive questioning. It should have been them, they decide, chewing their nails as they stand in front of your room's door. They should have had the privilege to be with you that night, make you scream their name through ecstatic moans, and have you swear your complete and utter devotion to them, just like they would have, you two finally belonging together both body and mind.

❥ But instead, they have to put their feelings into something else. Something soft and squishy once they beat up that asshole that dared take you home last night. Something like that bastard's face. Possessives don't care how bloody they get unless it is your blood, so there's no stopping them from thoroughly beating up the poor person who got to taste and enjoy you before they did. They put their hands on what belonged to the yandere—so they get to pay the price. Depending on how angry they are, they might even come back to you with a little price that reads like a threat. A finger or a head that they throw at your feet, they themselves completely covered in blood as they warn you to be careful who you choose next time and that it better be the yandere to fulfill your fucking needs. You get your cheeks squeezed by bloody hands, their kiss rough and brisk before they leave to go shower, hoping you learned your damn lesson while they leave you behind nauseous.

Bullies, Mafia, Bosses, Roommates, Spoiled Nobles, ...

❥ Manipulative Yandere, who knows where you've been last night. Who is waiting for you to approach them, stumbling over your own words as you try to make excuses, knowing fully well they disapprove. But they just shrug, telling you to do what you want, but underneath their breath, they mutter that you're a slut. They keep making small remarks to you over the day to chip away at your self-worth and confidence. No hunger? Obviously, considering you were busy getting filled up last night. Your bones popping when you stretch? You should really start stretching after sex, or your muscles might shrivel up as much as your brain that said it was a good idea to get down and dirty with some stranger. Maybe you should ask for money next time to get some operation to be a better whore?

❥ Sentences like those and other attacks about your body and intelligence really take out the fun of the last night. The yan won't be surprised if they wait a set amount of time before "accidentally" stumbling over you crying. You, a blubbering mess, telling them how mean they are and how bad you feel, makes them smile internally. They'll kneel down and shush you, hugging you even though you aren't comfortable with it, telling you it's okay and your feelings are valid. They'll admit they might have overdone it but that they were just so hurt that you'd not tell them the truth and not come to them before doing something so stupid. You could have died, meeting up with that stranger, damnit! Or gotten an STI or other diseases! What if they were some creep that would now stalk or hurt you? (Ironic, I know.) A manipulative yan will give you the comfort you need after a whole day ruined by their own comments while also showing you that they "care". You'll think twice about betraying them again, won't you?

Therapists, Someone you idolize, Step-parent, Doctor, ...

❥ Delusional Yandere who just doesn't believe you. You could be standing in front of them, rubbing in how great the sex was last night, and they'd still be staring at you with wide, doe eyes, not knowing what to say. They might even tear up when you insist, cupping their hands over their ears and telling you to stop and that it isn't true. That the you they know would never do such... impure and disgusting things. Maybe you were kidnapped and forced, or it was all a dream, but this didn't happen! You love the yan! You love them so much, you'd never do that! Your love is the reason why you kept asking about how they were and hung out with them when nobody else did! You're a pure, beautiful, unreachable angel that no one can defile in their eyes. Human sins are beneath you as you have the biggest heart and most beautiful personality.

❥ You two are meant for each other! No one but the yandere should put their hands on you, so what could that all mean? Were you unsatisfied with your relationship? Do you want more? Is that what you're trying to tell the delusional? They want that too... to be one with you, to love you with all their might. Maybe it really is time to progress in your relationship. They come to this conclusion all on their own while you talk to them about your hook-up, suddenly speaking up to invite you to their home that afternoon. The yan had never invited you before, so sure, why not? And they smile ear to ear, happily, taking this as you agreeing to take the next step before they tell you they have to prepare some things before you come over and bounce off. There are lots of tools and equipment to buy, new sheets, ropes, cup noodles, blindfolds, a toothbrush for you, a pretty gag, and so much more! Finally moving in together is so exciting!

Childhood best friend, The loner/weird person, Someone who idolizes you, ...

❥ Protective Yandere just goes silent as you fess up what you did last night. They are so quiet and still it really concerns you, so you reach out to them, only for the yan to slap away your hand. They have never pushed you away before, nor have they hurt you either. They've always been so good to you, kind and helpful, always there when you needed them. Now, you can't even read their expression, their face completely blank as they process what you did. After all they sacrificed for you, how they protected and cared for you... you go and betray them like this? Is this how it will always be? Are they just a second choice to you? Isn't it their task to keep you comfortable? To provide? To love you? Why would you look for it with anyone else? Let anyone put their dirty hands on you and put you in danger without the yan there to protect you from?

❥ They apologize for lashing out before getting up, needing to get away from you for a moment and sort their thoughts. What did they do wrong? Why did you do that? What is happening? Why does it hurt so much? And most importantly, what now? They obviously can't trust you to make your own decisions. You have terrible judgment. And they can't trust anyone else either, not your friends (that they never liked) because they left you with some stranger or society who'd take advantage of your naivety and impulsive desires. If they can't let you go without you doing something so stupid... then you can't leave at all. They need to take better care; they let you down once already. It's the yan's whole life purpose to protect you, and they can do that best when keeping you locked up and safe from outside curiosities that would attract such a fragile being like you. You need them, and they promise not to repeat their own mistake and fail you again.

Bodyguards, Soldiers, Your benefactor, any kind of platonic yandere, Someone who feels indebted to you, ...

Literally so much happened. What the actual fuck. Wow. I have so many feelings. I'm literally about to rewatch the episode and I'll write down my thoughts as I go (obv spoilers under the cut here.)

WOOHOO ANOTHER SANCTUARY MOON COLD OPEN

They are really hamming it up with this whole thing, with the Navbot being a Secunit stand in that Secunit will never ever admit its projecting onto. The whole thing about not trusting a reconditioned unit? The "machine" monologue?? "When you inducted me into this hideous religion called love, you took away the only human who has ever shown me kindness" - I wonder if we're going to get a callback to this scene and if it's going to fuck me the fuck up. Great job Dewanda Wise.

(Now, I am not 100% sold on this because we know Secunit likes escapism, buuut also we know Secunit is a very unreliable narrator, and perhaps its watching this entirely going "haha, wow, so wild and unrealistic. How do humans come up with all these crazy ideas?? Anyways I'm gonna rewatch this scene with the navbot for the 168th time. For no reason.")

Mensah jokingly calling secunit seccy did melt me a little bit SORRYyy

Ratthi, never change. (Except do change. Please. Secunit is going to be very sad if you don't develop slightly more of a sense of self preservation)

HELL YEAH It's Graycris namedrop time! We seem to be setting up the same conclusion as ASR, so this is gonna be fun!!

Murderbot's little snort is so endearing.

Gurathin: "this is how it started" about surgical painkillers? WOW.

GOD. This entire scene... going to be chewing on this for MONTHS.

A while ago I said that this show delights in doing double dutch with campy comedy and heart-wrenching drama. This scene is now the crux of my hypothesis (along with watching SM with Mensah, and singing at the GC secunit)

It's not an episode of murderbot if there's not a teensy bit of body horror! :D

What a day for every single person who enjoys murderathin bondage and feed exchanges (SOMEONE in that writers room has read Enemies, Closer)

"I didn't see it on Sanctuary moon. I saw it on MedCentreArgala" LMAO SCREAMING

Uh.

Uhmm

"Why can't you love me back" OKAY WHAT. SKARSGARD I LOVE YOU FOREVER FOR THE WAY YOU DELIVERED THAT I'M GOING TO CHEW ON THAT FOREVER. God Mensah's faaaace!!!! (also the visual of her dancing? looking generally beautiful? SO lovely)

"Did I just say something?" "NO YOU DIDN'T"

"One moment" OH SHIT OH FUCK OH SHIT OH DAMN!!

Gurathin crying while looking at the footage... I am... wow. Once again hats fucking off to Dastmalchian and Skarsgard.

Muderbot looks so fucking scared and hurt!!! "Don't. Don't!! DON'T!!!" HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BE NORMAL AFTER THIS???

Desperately grasping at straws to explain everything. "It could have been an implanted memory, or, or someone... maybe there was a combat override module involved."

"Yes. Maybe." GOD. FUCK. IT REALLY BELIEVES THAT. IT IS SO FUCKING SCARED OF ITSELF

AMANDA JONES you are amazing. The music in this episode is superb.

I'm not gonna say anything more about this scene. I am going to rewatch it a bajillion times though. You should go watch it too.

Woohoo exposition about alien remnants, Graycris, the Company, etc. First time we get Mensah as planetary leader officially mentioned! Honestly, that was A LOT of exposition, and they did that very effectively. High five, writers!

"It is not! your pet!" Mensah!!! I fucking screamed!!! Thank you for saying it!!!

(A little thing I noticed later: after Mensah yells at him, the camera lingers on Ratthi looking at little forlorn and then while everyone's talking about GrayCris, Mensah walks over to him and lightly touches his arm in reassurance. Just a nice character building moment!)

Again, Amanda Jones. I love you, I am metaphorically kissing you. You're amazing.

Hmm, woweee murderbot, your favourite episodes of Sanctuary Moon all center around constructs and the nature of personhood?

. Which could mean nothing. Of course.

"I HAVE A PLAN!!"

...

"I have a... plan..?"

"Fuck"

Cue me, dying.

OVERALL:

I mean, I've rewatched all the murderbot episodes at least once, but this is the only one I've rewatched immediately upon finishing. This is so good, I am having so much fun and also legitimately moved. Alexander and David, you both made me tear up during The Scene. Fuck it. I'm gonna go watch it again right now!!!

OKAY and a few critiques:

I am legit unsure of how I feel about them making Sanctuary moon so... not escapist? Like I know they've been very intentionally using SM as some exposition for MB but this felt too on-the-nose. (Idk, because I also totally get it from a TV standpoint because scenes from this show is the only way to actually show the audience what Murderbot is feeling (it sure as hell won't share that itself). Also there's no point in doing all the work (and $$$ spent) that they've done for SM for it not to be advancing the plot. Okay I think I've talked myself out of this critique. CONCESSION GRANTED TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF DIFFERENT MEDIA)

The skill gap between different members of the cast continues to grow more and more apparent. I'M SORRY they are all doing their best but their bests are... different bests. MUCH LOVE TO ALL OF THEM I ENJOY THEM ALL But Alexander, David, Noma and Tamara are kind of blowing the throuple out of the water.

And another awkward Throuple scene. Okay. It was sweet and kinda funny, but feels very tonally out of place.

"The rogue secunit who betrayed its clients!" aight, writers, come on now. Don't make me retract my earlier high five. This just feels like you're trying to bait the tv audience and irritate the book audience.

[riteliso]

ALRIGHT SO

Here's how we're doing things, right? We're gonna go one episode at a time, and I'm gonna give my thoughts whenever they come up. This is a train of thought type beat, alright? Unlike my usual grandstanding authorial and analytical self, this re-watch is purely for the rant factor. If you don't know me, and you just happened upon this thread because you like reading she-ra rewatches, hello. I'm a writer from Canada who found she-ra in 2025 and is currently on her sixth watch through. From that, hopefully you can discern that I like this show, even if I'm likely gonna criticize parts of it. We good to go? Good. We start with S01 E01.

RIGHT, THE SWORD PART 1! A zoom in, with an angelic singing being drowned out by digital bloopy fright zone vibes, and then Adora being a fuckin dweeb as her leitmotif plays in a decidedly crystiline synth-y tone.

Now, what do we learn from this? This, aside from one gripe I'll have more to speak on later, is an excellent introduction. With the music alone we're essentially taken from the beauty of the planet, the overwhelming dread of the fright zone, and then into a hopeful tune that isn't FREE from these sort of digital themes in the music, but is very defined and separate FROM them.

This isn't gonna be one of those things where I praise literally every single fuckin thing so keep your panties on, I'm not gonna full-on overanalyzing avatar this shit, but the most important parts of a story are the beginning and the ending.

Now, when I say that, I am speaking pragmatically. Every part of every story is important-- but when it comes to what people remember, what they love, what they never shut up about-- it's the start and the end. You need to nail the take-off and the landing, people will forget the turbulence from the rest of the trip.

Now, what does THIS bitch's intro tell us about her? Well, a lot, honestly. Most of what we know about Adora at this point is she plays by the rules, but she is a notably goofy person. She's goofy, but she's unwilling to goof-OFF too much.

And while we get a taste of the rivalry they have instantly, with "That's low, even for you." "You know nothing's too low for me~"

We instantly see that that is not the CORE of their relationship.

I'd like to praise the voice direction in this show for the first of many times here. The voice actors do amazing work in this, and the direction can be felt throughout.

"Come on, you look stupid hanging there" can obviously be a seen as a strange first line to show the warmth these two share, but the inflection from Catra's voice actor, AJ Mikalcha, makes it read as downright sweet.

Also don't get used to me using names of the crew besides ND Stevenson because I'm so awful with names I was still calling Catra Katara half the time on my second re-watch and I was like 90% of the way to realizing I kinned her at that point

Also don't make fun of me for kinning Catra there's no RESPONSE to people making fun of you for kinning Catra THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU SEEM MORE LIKE FUCKING CATRA OKAY

Anyway, the following scene makes it clear that this is not a one-way dynamic. The two banter, and it's clear Adora knows how to get under Catra's skin and annoy her as well. This is notable in a few places MUCH further on, but it is a difference worth highlighting NOW.

Once Adora leaves, Catra's primary goal is still to get under her skin. She's angry about it, she's mean about it, but she's still just doing what she's always done. The relationship between the two doesn't actually change as much as the context does. I'd say the relationship itself doesn't change much until the final season, at a scene I'm sure I'll have a lot to say about.

On the flip-side, Adora's goal when it comes to Catra is simply to fight her off. But that's not all there is. At points, it's clear that Adora holds some sort of REVERENCE for Catra, and while Catra is very capable of very mean things, don't get me wrong, Adora sees Catra as more of a threat than she realistically is.

At a few moments I'll point out she also relishes in getting under Catra's skin, but admittedly those are few and far between.

People have gone over this introduction billions of times, so I won't BORE you to death with it, but Shadow weaver's introduction does hint at a lot of what we'll learn later. I think it's very notable that while Shadow weaver brings a dark gloom that encompasses both our leads, her vile tendrils only dare to touch Catra. We learn the specifics of the dynamic these three have later, but it is a very unique and terrible situation to be the least favourite of an abusive guardian. Especially if you are repeatedly reminded of that fact.

I'm not gonna go over all the body language shit I've seen other text posts about it there's plenty of them a lot of focus in this show goes into tiny details where characters are constantly reacting to the world around them, and very rarely do we get lame stretches where anyone's face is just frozen and unflinching while they listen to someone else.

with all due respect to the setting at this point in time the bright moon rebellion is so pathetically anemic it's the two teens, some movie night lesbians, an immortal princess queen, and a bunch of fucking trees.

And you'd think the one carrying the team would be THE IMMORTAL PRINCESS QUEEN, BUT NO, ITS THE FUCKING TREES DOING ALL THE GOD DAMNED WORK

This introduction is fine. I don't particularly like it, nor have any strong feelings about it. It establishes the relationship between glimmer and her mother, but besides that it doesn't honestly do much. And don't come at me with "Uh, all it needs to do is establish that relationship?" Yeah, no shit, but we just had a better introduction to our other lead characters. And yes, those are the MAIN leads, the sort of heart of the show, but that doesn't mean that the other characters are unimportant. Glimmer's development later on is truly interesting, and Bow becomes a massively inspiring character. Fun jokey times are fine or whatever to show that they're immature and don't know the first thing about war, in contrast to our full-blown child soldiers raised from birth in the fright zone, but we really don't learn anything particularly INTERESTING about our best friend squad compadres in their intro, nor do we really see any of it until episode 2, to be frank.

This is something we don't actually see much of-- Catra has this ideal of being a conqueror, but it's very clear that she doesn't want that. Her threats are vapid and aimless-- She can enjoy some chaos, sure, but a shit-stirrer isn't gonna use that feces to build brick shithouses that they never intend to fall.

I think this should have been elaborated on more, personally. Catra is comically terrible with authority, and her plan, as stated later, is to wait it out until her and Adora are the ones calling the shots. But we don't really see what she thinks conquering even looks like, and it's not clear whether that's that she hasn't even imagined it and just likes evil words, or if she genuinely wants to rule with Adora as her Queen.

I gravitate towards the first, but that's partially because I wake up and post shit like "I want to destroy the world and rule its dust" and then forget I posted it when someone likes it 5 minutes later. If she do, in fact, as studies point toward, "be just like me fr," then I fully understand. If not, then I'd like to understand.

aw :(

Fuckin dweeb pulling the "my mom doesn't want me hanging out with you anymore" card

HA! Ah, what a bitch. Anyway, she's lashing out, but it's also quite tragic. A lot of people seem to think Adora IS, in some way, a people pleaser, but in reality she just has such an ingrained and violent sense of justice that she wants to right every wrong she has ever and will ever come across. She believes her validity is tied to what she can provide to the world, and she's got a natural sense of charisma, so it's natural for someone who refuses to blend in and naturally tends to put people off like Catra to have this view of her.

In reality, Adora is just-- a good person. And people LIKE good people. She's not a good person with an asterisk-- a good person with terms and conditions-- someone who falls into the definition of a good person while feeling and being treated like something else. Catra is the "a tomato is a fruit" of good people. Adora is just, like, a 1 dollar costco hotdog of a woman. An inarguable good treading water on this earth, no matter how hard it tries to pull her under.

Imagine falling for a brat with mad hops, like a fucking 50 foot vertical, you say you're too tired to play their favourite board game and they go hang out on your neighbour's roof, couldn't be me. Get fucked I guess

Yeah this is sad. Empathy is very much a learned skill, and people who don't learn empathy don't GET happy FOR people. Catra's not a complete person yet. She's not ready to be. That doesn't happen for a really long time, during an exceptionally long manic spiral. We'll get there, calm down, don't think about how far away that is and how much I've already yammered on.

Anyway, if you find yourself getting jealous or annoyed instead of getting happy for people, consider empathy isn't what you thought it was, and that you might still need to work on yourself.

fucking porno framing. Immensely sexual image, really. These bitches violently gay I suppose, I think I'm picking up on that during this sixth re-watch.

Buddy you got no idea how many problems those two already have you literally lose your little tiara at some point I think it ends up in the middle of a tree in space or something it's kinda unclear

Adora elbows her square in the nose during this so to everyone accusing Catra of physical abuse I just want it to be clear that Adora started it :/

Actually I'd like to retract that joke immediately because I know how people get about these two

My feelings are that they are literally child soldiers who were likely raised sparring each-other.

I was raised sparring other children and I ended up fine! Not for war, for Karate. And I didn't end up fine. And neither did they. Anyway, my point isn't even specifically that because this is sci-fi fantasy it's ridiculous to hold real life standards to it, it's more-so that because it's sci-fi fantasy there's extenuating circumstances that are going to affect how these two characters treat each-other. I'll go into hotter takes later, I'm sure, and get people to send me plenty of death-threats, but I'm gonna go into the nuances of exactly what forms Catra's abuse takes, and how it differs given by the separate circumstances we're shown the two in throughout the show.

my girl when I'm tryna live my best life playing as blue toad in mario 3d world

also holy shit we're only like halfway through this I am an AGONIZING yapper jesus fuck

Okay, what to say about lighthope-- well, their first words are "balance must be restored," far before they say Adora's name, so it somewhat lays out their secret priorities for us there. Besides that, I dunno, they got circuits on them? I don't have particularly strong feelings about lighthope, nor their introduction. I think they serve the setting and are written well, I just subjectively am not a sucker for the way they be. Their friendship with Mara is cute tho

I was gonna point out this is cute and how often I do this exact brat tactic but instead we data moshin, nothin wrong with a little data moshin, I'm down

This is the only reason she even wears a ponytail I'd stake my fuckin life on it

Once she leaves the fright zone that thing's fucking vestigial like a tailbone or having "any pronouns" in your bio when it's pretty clear you're very much a "she/they" type of bitch by now

glimmer why don't your windows have glass

or alternatively

how the fuck do you open and close that window

you can absolutely fucking hear her from this distance what on earth are you trying to pull

you a pillow princess tho how many of those arrows are just hitatchi magic wands attatched to a stick with duct-tape after the series ends do you think

The fuck you mean BOTTOM drawer we lookin at left and right here

or is this similar to my pillow princess comment and she's just addressing him and giving him an order

"Bottom; drawer."

It's established later on that he's a tech wiz but at this point in time they don't really give us much to lead us to the fact that he made that fucking thing

she's a freak

yes it's very sweet that she sleeps this way but I don't think it's some bdsm powerplay thing or anything like that, which would honestly be more tolerable, I think she's just like that

like how the way I'd sit in high school was to get two chairs and face them toward each-other then sit cross-legged across both

even if there weren't enough chairs to go around

people would sit on the FLOOR because I wanted to sit criss-cross-applesauce across two chairs, they wouldn't even ask for one of my chairs

also since I was sitting, again, cross-legged, it would have made more sense for ME to sit on the floor

I mean I think I got asked ONCE for one of the chairs and I just said "fine" but besides that people just let me sit on my fuckin throne

She really is kinda dumb, though. Like I ain't complaining, it's a character trait, but like obviously even if just you get in trouble Catra's gonna get blamed, you've seen it like at least once a month for your whole entire life

Mind you, can't really have Catra for the next part, because Catra's reaction to Bow and Glimmer wouldn't be "just let me have the sword" it'd be murder

oh wow we hit the image limit looks like we're doing TWO SEPARATE POSTS FOR THE VERY FIRST EPISODE YEE-HAW!!!!! THIS IS GOING TO TAKE ME FUCKING FOREVER

[helly-watermelonsmellinfellon]

I don't think I ever brought it up here, but about a month ago, somebody left me a review on something basically saying, 'I know I never have to worry about you relying on AI because the moment I see too many commas, I know it's definitely you.'

And like- there was no reason to read me for filth like that. But thank you, I guess?

No, but seriously, all you gotta look out for is the abundance of commas(Because I treat them as they're meant to be treated. A pause. And if there's a comma, then that means that's where I paused when I was writing and that's how it should be read.), ellipses, So, and Of Course. My bread and butter.

AI is shit and I will not abide by it. If you pay me to write you something, I am not using AI even if my wrists are killing me, I will voice type before I ever rely on that shit.

I've spent 13 years curating my presence online in fandom spaces. And while I might not be a particularly important writer or an easily memorable one, I do have a decent following of people who are willing to read anything I write because I'm the one that wrote it. People who have literally witnessed me improve as a writer, who are still aware of the fact that I am still not a perfect writer. And I would definitely not spit on that level of devotion just cuz I wish my wrists hurt or I had no inspiration to write a specific thing.

(But also, if you're paying me to write your book report on Romeo and Juliet, or asking me to handle your paper on a mathematician, I am definitely not using AI. That would be the dickest move ever. Like- if you're getting paid to do somebody else's work for them, why should they pay you if you just used AI? They could have clearly used AI themselves. Why would you complain that they want a refund and that they got it? You didn't do the work!)

[lilyinmysoul]

Hey, so since Gutsby just disappeared, I’m gonna make it clear that if you are leaving any sort of criticism or negative feedback for fanfic writers, you’re annoying and you’re also a bully. Fandom isn’t a market; it’s a community. So if you’re being a menace just because something isn’t to your tastes, cut it out.

Additionally, it’s obviously wrong to use AI to write your fics (and if you are, you’re pathetic) but because of the weight that something like that holds, don’t throw that accusation around. Don’t accuse people of generating their writing just because they are good at it. Be sure before you say shit like that.

- I also just want to emphasize how lame it is to take credit for writing that isn’t yours. So, if you actually are doing this, I want you to know how indolent you are. Just learn your craft like any dignitary person.

So anyway, stop being a dick, if you don’t like something, don’t read it; writers don’t owe you shit. In fact, they work for you, and they work to share their creations when they otherwise wouldn’t need to. So, thank them and send them love—otherwise, they’ll stop. Fandoms are already at risk now because of AI, which is really fucking discouraging. So, for the love of god, be grateful.

YALL READ THIS

LW: If you had to write a State-of-the-Union-address-style speech about popular music, what would your main points be? Ray: Oh boy. Do it Frankie. Matt: Kill it! Mikey: I mean, there's nothin wrong with pop music. It's all the songs that everyone listens to when nobody's around, you know? Everybody loves that shit, so if you say you don't like it, you're fuckin lying. Everyone loves the new Justin Timberlake song and if you don't you're probably lying. Frank: I'm sick and fucking tired of people not writing their own goddam songs and getting on the radio and pretending like they're…like they know what's up. And, like, I'm tired of all that. I'm tired of bands that totally suck and kids buyin their t-shirts and being like, "Oh, this is what punk is" or "This is what hardcore is". And all these people don't know or care what it's all about or anything like that and I'm really psyched for real music and honest music to come out. Like Thursday. Bands like The Ghost, Sleep Station, Midtown, AFI. Bands that mean it, that have been there, that kids don't even know about and all these bands like Good Charlotte and Sum 41 and all these fuckin shit pop bands out there are influenced by these bands and rip them off. Matt: Or their writers rip them off. Frank: And no one fucking cares. I dunno, I'm really waiting for all this shit to be destroyed and that's one of my goals too. To get up there and if I get 10 kids to not buy Sum 41 cds and actually get into real music, like buy a Refused cd, please. If I can do that, then I'll feel like I've done something. And that's the way I feel about that! LW: Feel better? Frank: Little bit. Yeah. LW: Is there anything else we didn't touch on that you wanna share? Frank: Yes! Support indie scenes, support your local scene, support local bands! Put on a show. Do something. Write a letter to your fuckin asshole president who is bombing innocentp eople for no reason. Just make a difference. Cause one person can do something. If you just sit back and pretend, like, you know, like, "Oh it's not my problem" or "I can'd do anything about it", you're just adding to the bullshit. And don't talk shit about things you don't know about, like, bands like Thursday and Midtown and bands that are comin out that worked their asses off to get stuff. People call them sellouts because they got success. There's a fine line between selling out and success. Don't you think it'd be better to hear Thursday on the radio than Creed? Seriously. This is our scene, all of ours, support it! Don't fuck up venues. Don't be an asshole. It's not punk rock to be an asshole. And another thing. If you go to shows just to kick somebody's ass, you're stupid, you're a jock and you're fuckin ruining everything. I got into punk rock because I wasn't accepted anywhere else and it was a place where everyone was accepted for who they were and what they wanted to be and to go there and make that a scene thats scary for kids to come to, being elitists about that, just defeats the whole purpose. So don't be an asshole.

Some OP x reader ideas

Ok so im not really a writer so if anyone wants to use these ideas to write them be my guest 👀 but also tag me in them bc I wanna read them...

Shanks x Reader angst bc it's mostly Reader being in love with Shanks' father figure Rayleigh since their mid twenties can be smut if ya want

Still be wanting some demon Zoro...him with the horns and that one outfit got me so feral... (will definitely have to draw that once im done with other OP art)

Rivals/Enemies to Lovers with Lucci, Crocodile, or Mihawk sounds kinda hot...

Lucci: I can see the reader being a part of CP0 and Lucci treats them like shit bc he thinks they're weak so they're pretty much fighting like how Zoro and Sanji do lol

Crocodile: I can see them being business rivals or enemies Crocodile stealing all of readers clients, threatening or bribing their employees or something. One minute they're at a business meeting arguing and the next they're both in the bed naked and Crocodile leaning back smoking a cigar lol

Mihawk: childhood rivals. Reader always trying to prove themselves and catch up with mihawk and shanks. Ofc mihawk is kinda an ass to them but it only fuels them to do better and mihawk secretly admiring that about them.

Another angst (surprised? You shouldn't be tbh i always have angst ideas in my brain :>) Luffy being in love with the reader but reader sees him as a Lil brother and has the hots for his grandpa and is willing to risk it all leaving the straw hats just to get some of that gilf schmeat.

Smut idea bc why tf not plus Killer needs some love too. Thinking of childhood friends. Reader always had a thing for killer but ofc (according to the lore as well) when they were kids. Killerr and Kid loved a girl named Victoria so reader keeps their feelings to themself all the way up into adulthood and then kid all of sudden one day brings up their old crush on him when they were drinking in a bar but they shrug it off bc they've moved on (or so they think) and they try to seduce a random guy at their bar but Killer can't obviously ignore wtf kid just said. So Killer ofc is kinda jealous and also the guy that reader is flirting with feels off and is giving him bad vibes. Ends up with him pretty much throwing them over his shoulder and taking them back to the ship and well you know the rest ☺️

Mafia AU! PLZ I BEG especially if there's shanks, benn, mihawk, or zoro in the mafia au 😫 im so thirsty pleasseeeee

Cyborg with the assist The New Gods #7 by Ram V. and Evan Cagle

[bixthenix]

i’m deep in crunch time hell rn but after i survive my deadlines i rly wanna draw a TLOU cherik au that’s been haunting me for a few weeks now. hear me out:

a very young and recently married erik losing magda and his newborn daughter as soon as hell breaks loose. probably in the same way that joel lost sarah, the thing is he has pure contempt and hatred for the army/goverment and when he is recluted by shaw he doesn’t hesitate a second to join the fireflies (aka the brotherhood).

at the same time charles was 12 when the pandemic broke and he became an orphan after his parents got killed in the outbreak (ALSO brian xavier was a scientist who at some point experimented on his son so maybe in this au he had something to do with the accidental spreading of cordyceps and later on charles immunity).

so anyway, charles grows up in a fedra facility being brainwashed by propaganda along with his adopted sister raven, he works for fedra and truly believes the government is trying to do good (he’s too brainwashed and naive to see how corrupted they all are). he thinks his sister is on the same page as him but eventually finds out raven secretly joined the fireflies and ofc charles loses his shit, begs her to see reason but deeply he knows how stubborn his sister is and nothing he says will get through that thick skull of hers. in the end after a rly long screaming match he reiterates his resolute disapproval of her decisions but promises to not snitch her out or get in the way as long as raven takes care of herself and doesn’t kill innocent people while she’s engaging in any of the terrorist shit the fireflies do. then the mall fiasco happens, the siblings get bitten and decide to wait for their end as they hold hands. but while raven succumbs to the infection, to charles pure shock and agony he realizes he still has a consciousness (and yes, charles is forced to kill his infected baby sister). he’s eventually found by the fireflies and taken by them

at first here i wanted the story to follow the TLOU canon where after discovering charles’ immunity the fireflies decide to take him, but i really love the kansas city arc in the show and it got me thinking of something like this happening here. what if there is a coup at the new york settlement and fedra fell to the fireflies? but the thing is this fraction of the fireflies is leaded by shaw who is a ruthless psychopath and turns the settlement into a living hell for fedra prisoners and citizens. like complete anarchy and law of the jungle kind of shit, and the fedra prisoners get the worst of it: public parades that end up with prisoners getting linched, raped, dismembered, etc. shaw even goes as far as to making an arena sort of coliseum filled with infected creatures just to throw the prisoners in there and watch how they all succumb to the virus in the cruelest way.

as much as erik hates fedra he doesn’t fuck with the kind of torture porn shaw is inflicting on these people but he and some other members of the fireflies who don’t agree with these barbaric methods can’t do anything about it bc they all have to bend to what shaw says. that is until charles is one of the fedra prisoners who is taken and thrown into the cells awaiting to be subjected to shaw’s torture. erik doesn’t know charles but he recognizes his name: raven was erik’s partner when she joined the fireflies and he knows that her brother is the only family in the world she got. erik has little to no love for a fedra agent but he feels he owes this to raven so when a group of shaw’s men enter charles’ cell to ‘have fun with him’ erik decides to step in and confronts shaw. he informs him about charles being related to one of their fireflies sisters and tries to argue for a lesser punishment for him, or for at least to keep him in a cell without being subjected to rape, torture or death. shaw, always the son of a bitch he is, delightfully agrees to this and decides to throw charles into the arena full of infected just to fuck with erik. he says he’s being fair and that if charles survives the arena he gets to walk away.

charles is thrown into the arena with no weapons but his wits and against all odds he survives the assault. shaw is irritated by this but decides to keep his promise and free charles, that is until they see the bite marks on his arms. and then they find even older bite marks that he got weeks ago at the mall, when raven died in his arms. there is no question about what these mean and shaw decides to lock charles again and test if what he thinks that is happening here is true. erik is also bewildered, he thinks this is all some kind of sick joke and charles will turn into a grotesque monster in a matter of hours, but a week goes by and charles is very much the same (though very much annoyed that they have kept him monitored in a cell, but at least no one dares to get close to him to either torture him or rape him fearing he will infect them as well).

while shaw is debating what to do with charles, erik is approached by emma frost who heads a small fraction of the fireflies in new york that disagree with shaw’s methods. emma informs erik that there is a secret lab in a firefly base back in utah where they can make something out of charles’ immunity and create a cure. she then tells him she will free charles and deal with shaw for the time it takes them to get the fuck out of new york only if erik promises he will take charles with him and drive him to this lab in utah.

erik doesn’t know how the fuck this happens, he always minded his own business while being a firefly, never questioned anything that was asked of him bc he truly believed in the cause, that all the people he killed in the name of the fireflies was purposeful. yet the only fucking time he decided to speak up for raven’s fedra agent brother of all people he gets dragged into some shitfest and is suddenly in charge of driving some guy across the country while shaw’s lackeys go after him.

and the thing is that even if their love for raven and hatred for shaw should unite them, erik and charles really dislike each other. actually no, they DESPISE each other and the road trip is nothing but pure antagonism emanating from both parties: erik calls charles fedra scum and can’t believe someone as brave and strong as raven had a brother who is such a deluded coward. and charles calls erik a terrorist pig who is probably as sick and depraved as shaw. but eventually as the months in the road go by, the animosity between the two deflates and they begin to really know the other one. erik realizes charles is more than a pair of pretty blue eyes and a cure to humankind, but a deeply empathetic person who truly believes there exists light during these dark times. and charles discovers that under his cold and ruthless front there is so much good in erik. he saw a glimpse of that when erik saved him from being violated by shaw’s men but now he really sees how serious erik is about protecting those he calls family. eventually and by surprise of no one they fall in love. they confide in each other: charles talks about raven and erik speaks magda and anya’s name for the first time in decades. they continue their journey across the country with this precious thing between them.

that is until they reach utah and erik finds out what emma was planning to do with charles from the moment she sent them both away

the thing is erik is 100% aligned with the fireflies’ ideals despite hating shaw with every fiber of his. he believes in the cause and would actually do anything that is asked of him. and if this had happened 6 months ago right after leaving new york he would have gone with it without question. but after spending every night in the last half of the year being held in charles’ arms? if finding a cure for humankind would mean charles dying then fuck humankind. he would betray his brothers and sisters in a heartbeat if it means saving his lover, even if charles ends up hating him afterwards

Something that's always struck me as irritating is how Sonic fans from the last few years have developed this weird preconceived notion that Tails was "always supposed to be a little kid".

Like... are you sure? Are we really gonna sit here and argue that the way Heroes and Forces portrayed Tails is the be-all-end-all of what his character is supposed to be? He was not just created to be Sonic's weak, frail little brother who needs saving all the time.

Excluding the fact that SEGA JP has ultimately nixed ages from the series altogether, he is seen countless times throughout the series taking on missions arguably more dangerous than Sonic and Knuckles, with ease mind you, and holding his own against their enemies.

Tails has built multiple planes, mechs, and other large dangerous pieces of machinery that he operates with ease. Even going off the assumption that he is a child, it wouldn't make sense for everyone to just blindly trust that a little kid knows what he's doing.

Obviously there's the indication that Tails is younger than Sonic, especially in certain older shows, and if Fiona telling Tails she's old too for him is anything to go by, we ARE supposed to believe there's an age gap between them. The problem is that so many people use these as examples to base Tails' entire character off of. Early interpretations where Tails is specifically written to BE Sonic's little brother.

He's definitely not Sonic's age, but he is a lot older and more capable than this wave of newer fans are making him out to be. He is literally almost Sonic's exact height in Sonic X!

And what about Sonic Prime? Nine says he "was a kid" during his flashback. Him having codependency issues and showing occasional childish behavior doesn't mean he's a little kid, it just means he's traumatized.

Even the variations of Tails that do feel younger have a rougher edge to them. Are we forgetting that movieverse Tails stole a police vehicle, drove it all the way to the Wachowski household and hit Knuckles with it? After traveling the universe by himself to find Sonic, no less.

Messy post, but like, tl;dr the woobification of Tails is actually getting so bad in this fandom and it's dampening his character. He's not a helpless baby, he's committed multiple war crimes and could very likely beat Sonic in a fight if things ever came to blows. Tails is getting the Silver treatment here where people just keep dumbing him down more and more to make him Sonic's cute baby brother when that's just ONE facet of his personality.

He's insanely smart! He's witty! He's tough! Frontiers wrapped his character around and tried to bring him back to the Tails we knew for being self-assured and unhinged, why does this fandom insist on ignoring it for the Lost World and Forces era mischaracterization? Just because it fits your idealized version of what he is doesn't mean that's who he's supposed to be! Put some respect on my boy's name!
