STSG

Knife-Edged Butterfly -> I rated this: 20/10

• suguru is a sexy girl-dad stripper. satoru is a “retired” assassin/special agent who loves chicken wings & annoying nanami (crazy!!!!) mahito is a deranged bitch trying to kill everyone. but holy fucking shit???? this was so amazing and the fluff was probably the most well-written and comforting fluff I've ever encountered on the internet. I can’t even explain how articulate and amazing the writing and characterizations in this fic are. This is my #1.

Coanda Effect -> I rated this: 11/10

• formula one au. I’m sure y’all have seen it everywhere. there’s a reason for that. this fic right here has the potential to be my favorite stsg fic EVER written. the writing. the depth. the character progression. the intertwining plots. the relationships. the drama. oh my fucking god. I could go onnnnn and onnnn. there’s not too much smut but it’s perfect. absolutely perfect. go binge read RIGHT NOW ITS ALMOST FINISHED!!!!

There you are -> I rated this: 9.9/10

• set during the 10 years after geto defects. they meet up, because of course they do. they fuck each other and love each other and leave each other like always. it’s sad and hot and angry and bitter and so so so canon. the diction and writing style perfectly encapsulates their relationship. nurse!geto makes an appearance :)))))) do not read if you’re having a particularly sad stsg night (speaking from experience)

—————

GETO

Washing hair and the quiet acceptance of being loved -> I rated this: 10/10

• this fic right here. the ultimate comfort geto fic (until mine is released🫡). I’m telling you this makes everything feel better. just 1k+ words of the fmc taking care of geto. because he is a princess and the loml and deserves nothing but the best care and treatment.

Ausländer -> I rated this: 9.9/10

• outlaw!geto, officer!gojo, and a badass fmc. she literally builds/runs her own town. this is a geto/fmc fic but there is unresolved tension with stsg. let me tell you, this is a work of ART. a MASTERPIECE. I wish I could get this tattooed on my brain. the fmc is soooo well written and has amazing depth. this is some delicious wild wild west type shit. lots of guns and saloons and chases on horses!!!! fucking incredible. I strongly urge you to read this.

Spin the Bottle -> I rated this: 9.8/10

• y’all already know. college au where suguru is your best friend, has the fattest crush on you & needs just a litttttlee bit of liquid courage to cross the line. it’s fantastic. it’s scrumptious. it’s indulging. it’s cover girl. I reread this twice a month. not joking. this is college suguru to his core and you can’t change my mind.

🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings

I was gonna say Drifter/Eris and that they both smell really weird in very different ways...

But let's be honest I gotta go Megarox. Megamind is a flower eater, he enjoys nectar, and Roxanne can and will encourage this, usually by bringing him flowers or when they go on walks in parks together (night walks, naturally. Those are the best kind), she plucks flowers and feeds them to him, usually by shoving them in his face because she is a terrible gremlin and it's why we love her.

🪐 ⇢ name three good things going on in your life right now

My wife came out to a bunch of our friends and they are all so loving and supportive! She smiles so much now!

We are getting a patio installed out the back! It only took 7 years but finally we can eat out there without having to balance on gravel

There is a very cute cat loafing beside me

🍬 ⇢ post an unpopular opinion about a popular fandom character

This is not me trying to yuck anyone's yum but I really, really cannot stand casting Megamind and Roxanne in parental roles for Keiko or her calling them her parents. It squicks me out to the point of repulsion. I am all for feral aunt and uncle to a wild niece, but fun characters who are NOT reduced to parenting (reluctant or otherwise) in sequels are so few and far between that I just don't want to see it. They can be supportive and caring without having to force everyone into Nuclear Family Unit.

And sure, a lot of this stems from growing up with the expectation in both media and irl that of COURSE becoming a parent is the only outcome for you. But that doesn't make it any less of an ick! We SHOULD be getting more non nuclear family options, we SHOULD be getting more it takes a village. But if your only approach to setting characters up as a family is to make them "Here is the mummy and here is the daddy and here is the baby" just no. Please. There are a thousand more possibilities there, open your mind.

🌿 ⇢ give some advice on writer's block and low creativity

Go for a walk, take some music with you, or do dishes or sweep (also with music).

Additionally, if you're wanting to write something but are holding off to find out if future canon will change things, stop waiting. Just go. Do you think we'd have anywhere near the creativity and wildness of fanfic if we had to stop and wait for canon's blessing every time. it's FANFIC! Who fucking cares if canon contradicts you down the track, it's not gonna be any less fanfic for waiting!

(I do think we actually saw a drop in the level of creativity and engagement with fandom ideas when the show was announced, which is a bummer. Kill the cop in your brain. Write shit that will be immediately contradicted, have someone come to your completely disproven fic years down the line and go "I thought this was going to not work because we know X but holy shit this is a whole new way of looking at things!")

🦋 ⇢ share something that has been on your heart and mind lately

I uh....no thoughts, head empty. How do I stop my cat attacking me for wearing jeans in the house? I got my other rants out up above so... *le shrug*

:green beetle: ⇢ add 50 words to your current wip and share the paragraph here (emoji is not working for me smh)

Oh you sneaky little shit, you got me writing!

(context: Look we aint supposed to let the prisoners get gifts. There's a whole chapter in the handbook about what happened last time we let the kid get so much as a bobby pin.

But you tell me how I'm meant to turn down such a sweet little old lady when she comes in with two pristine old shoe boxes, all carefully packed with tissue and hands one to the kid and the other to the repoter and with a quavery little voice about how she and her husband, god rest his soul, used to go dancing every saturday night for almost forty years and how they entered the ameature ballroom competitions together. Told us they were the last pairs they brought together, before the cancer took him and oh she'd never get these on over her bunions now but it would do her old heart good to see some use coming to these shoes which hadn't seen the light of day in nigh on twenty years.)

There's only so much a man can take right before retirement.

I might have been able to hold her off if she hadn't handed one of the boxes to Miss Primetime, who looked really touched and immediately buckled herself into a pair of sparkly red shoes to the encouragement of all the old biddies.

So now the kid's the proud owner of a pair of actual ballroom dance shoes, all polished black to go with the bright orange jumpsuit.

[psalmsofpsychosis]

tell me about your favorite movies and books!! i wanna dissect your brain (lovingly) (affectionate)

Choccy my belovedest you broke in through my bedroom window at 3am with the hardest question asked of mankind huh 😭❤️❤️ i have so many favs!!! i dont remember any of them!! but. i will try to make an effort because i love you 💕 so! 5 movies/tv shows and 5 books ayy

For Media,

• City of God!!!

the pace of this movie is insane, i call it the movie that never sleeps, both narrative wise and production wise. It's constantly in motion and a whirlwind of a wild story but it never loses its ground and its significance, which is not something i can say about

• Shameless US

jesus. listen, Shameless US is as wonderful as it's shit, in equal measures. It's a story that feels like the best unprotected sex of your life that also gave you Hepatitis B. ShU travels into territories noone dares to tread, and sometimes it's a cheap hitch in the back of a junkie's stolen van, and sometimes it's a first class experience in Bono's private jet; no inbetween. It's insanely creative, insanely unapologetic and honest, hits like an unexpected 2am urge to go scream from the rooftop of your house, and it's quite frankly unforgettable, both in its bad and good moments.

• Tokyo Godfathers

MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!! MOVIE OF ALL TIME I TELL YA!!!!

• Doukyuusei

This bitch here is SO dear to me, i dont even know how to describe it. It's quite different from the manga, and i love the manga so much i think about it more than 3 seconds and i die, but the story feels more fluid in movie format. To me Doukyuusei is the best example of how you can tell the richest and most fascinating and intriguing story without ugly shock value or Angst TM or stupid twists; just life as it happens. The Manga's characterizations are so intricate and complex and distinct it blows your mind, not a single stereotype in sight. I really need Doukyuusei to be some kinda food so i can eat it for the rest of my life.

• Corvette Summer

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I have no excuses. This is my trademark movie, the Farimah TM movie, i've claimed it and i bite anyone who gets close. It's so saccharine it rots half of your tooth halfway in and i love a good "take of life all you can; for the love of gods want something, anything, take what is yours and never apologise twice" story. I adore how flirty and sweet and soft this movie is. Plus, yeah, Mark Hamill and Annie Potts. The dream sandwich.

• Honorary mention: Blue Eye Samurai

Simply the most intelligent piece of media i have seen in the last 5 years, holy fucks. It works your brain on 99 different subtle levels to the point that it makes you glad to possess a brain and being able to comprehend stories. It's a challenging watch, intellectually, emotionally— solid makes you proud to understand it the way you'd be proud after finishing a 6k piece puzzle.

And as for books, i've mostly been indulging my fiction thirst with fanfic and flash fiction, and been mainly reading nonfiction in terms of published stuff, so, yeah, it's gonna get a bit technical. sorry.

• Tara Campbell's "Angels and Blueberries"

This story healed 15 years of my childhood trauma with 30% discount.

• Anne Waldron Neumann's "Monologues with Euphemisms"

There's something about flash fiction that forces people to get creative and by gods creative they get. The structure of this piece is so unconventional and sturdy it makes my brain sing 99 motown tunes. Speaking of story structure though,

• Jane Alison's "Meander, Spiral, Explode"

This is a book about story structure. I read it in pieces the way you read poetry and philosophy essays. Take of that what you will. Like, this is such meta read; you can analyse the book itself on its narrative flow and rhythm. I think i learnt more about Aristotle's idealogies reading this book than i learnt by reading Aristotle's essays. and this is the second "nonfiction that reads like poetry" book on this list. The first one is,

• Carlo Rovelli's "The Order Of Time"

Yep. Quantum physics is art to me by nature, but Rovelli really drives the art part home, and he's so sexy for it. This book is so lyrical and it plays with your heartstrings as much as it plays with your brain, i dont care about what category it falls under; this is top notch fiction to me.

• John Luckovich's "The Instinctual Drives And The Enneagram"

an older read i keep picking up every other half year, since i got into Luckovich's theories back in 2017, but yeah, this book is basically the foundation of majority of my worldviews, the spine of it. Luckovich is such thorough and unconventional thinker, getting into his stuff uprooted my brain in uncomfortable ways, and it's been an exhilarating journey.

• Honorary mention: Peter A. Levine's "Waking The Tiger"

Honestly? if i had to give someone one single book to read in their lifetime and nothing else, this would be it. I reference this book mentally in my everyday life so goddamn much i think it's etched into my DNA at this point, this book and Luckovich's theories on human instinct.

Thank you for picking my brain love, be sure to drop the diagnosis in my inbox later 🤣❤️

The Waves That Lap The Shore - Chapter 30 - Closing Time

Notes:

I can’t believe this fanfic is actually coming to an end- it feels like just yesterday this was just a concept. Just a thought. Just an idea. Just a drawing. But now here I am, many months later. Posting the last chapter… But don’t worry! Our beloved fish dudes aren’t going to be completely gone after this! I have a feeling I’m still going to think about this AU quite a bit. Who knows, maybe in the future I’ll post some one shots of them. And I know for a fact I’ll probably still make animations or pmvs with them most likely. I have actually made some pmvs of this au already if you’d like to watch them For yourself:) https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW7sHfzMCSsxyuwvZ9RvFfwjukOMHv1_3

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Hey it’s Shellington! It’s been many years since the “Kwazii was bitten by a cobra”  incident. I still can’t believe that was 11 years ago! 

I’m thankful that he survived!

Now Kwazii’s the captain of the Octopod, Barnacles retired a few years ago and now lives up in the Arctic near Pearl and Bianca. 

Inkling is still here, somehow. Koshi helps ink out in the library. 

Me and Peso are happily married and have been for almost ten years! Our anniversary is coming up. 

Kwazii and Paani and Dashi and Tweak also got married many years ago. 

After the “Kwazii was bitten by cobra” incident Kwazii and Paani found a newborn kitten (which they named Kai, as it means ocean or sea in several languages.) and took her in. Kai is 11 years old and they are quite intelligent, they like watching me do my experiments. 

Me and Peso also have a child  as well, their name is Lucia and they are almost 11 years old, she’s an albino sea otter and I saved her from being eaten by a predator. 

Periwinkle is now in college and is majoring in Marine Biology, we still talk quite often. 

We look back fondly (or… not so fondly) on our adventures (and misadventures) together. 

Like that time Peso got moonstruck and through that party, or our crazy times in the Amazon! Or the time Paani forced us all to watch (or in me and Dashi’s case, rewatch) Invader Zim. We all became fixated in the process-

Anyway. Thanks for reading our story :) 

~ Shellington Sea Otter.

Notes:

Holy shit that was a wild ride. I just want to thank everyone for reading this fic, leaving a comment, leaving kudos, likes or upvoting, it really means the world to me. I genuinely didn’t think so many people would want to read this kind of fic, but boy was I mistaken. I’m honestly very proud of this, this is the first ever long fic I actually finished and didn’t abandon. How I even thought of this AU was I saw my dear friend, Midori’s Octonauts Mermaid AU “Reclaimed By Nature” (which by the way, is a very good fanfic, I’d definitely recommend giving it a read! Especially if you’re a fan of Kwazton and Pearlanca! You can read it here: https://reclaimed-by-nature.carrd.co/) And I thought that was pretty neat. So I wondered to myself “huh… what if I made a H2O x Octonauts AU?” So I started to think of concepts. I had a couple in mind, one of the first being that Shellington would keep the secret much longer (he didn’t even tell Peso for awhile, which he would’ve felt very guilty about) and that he would’ve been very stressed about keeping it hidden from everyone. (Which, was inspired by a merman Lewis h2o AU fic I read, called H2O: A New Tail) Another one I had was basically the same as the first, but Peso would’ve found out sooner, as he would’ve gone after Shellington after got splashed while they were cleaning the beach, and he would’ve found him in the kelp forest. Shell would’ve tried to tell him that it was just a costume but Peso wouldn’t have really bought that so he would’ve told Peso the truth and Peso would’ve been like “it’s okay I still love you :) <3” One of the things I originally planned for this fic was that it’d be short, around 12 or 13 chapters, and that It’d just be about the lives and times of Peso and Shellington after Shellington became a merman. But now here we are, many chapters and scrapped concepts later- I actually even have an AU of this AU, it’s basically where I put all my scrapped concepts (one of the being that Paani was always a merm, I even wrote a short one shot about it, which I’ll probably post sometime soon) I named it “The Sight”. I originally planned for this fic to have 40 chapters, but I realized that many of them were unnecessary, so I scrapped most of them, other then my concept for chapter 35, which I kept and incorporated into chapter 29. Also I might make a story about Kai and Lucia??? If y’all really want that… It’s probably not gonna be anything big, just one shots or something but I mean maybe? If that’s what y’all want? Like I’d be happy to write a short fics on their origin story’s. After this fic, I might write a fic for another Octonauts AU I came up with that ive nicknamed “Invader Kwazii”. It’s an Invader Zim x Octonauts AU where Kwazii is sent to conquer Earth by The Tallest (who are Barnacles and Inkling) because they think he’s worthy of it. And it’s basically the plot of Invader Zim after that, there’s a few differences (like how it takes place in high school) tho, but other then it’s very similar to the plot. It also has Kwazini. It’s a little passion project for me, not to mention I’ve got plenty of ideas of how I want it to go. Another AU of mine I’ve been thinking about writing is my “Vampire Kwazton AU” it’s basically a AU where Shellington is a vampire and it takes place during the early 1990s when Grunge music was the big thing. It’s still a w.i.p but that might be a fic I write in the future, if I do I might just be a ficlet collection or something of the sort. Another fic I have I in mind is for my “Shellinoir” AU. Which will probably be a series of one shots. I came up with it after watching the SpongeBob episode “Squid Noir” which is where I got the title. It’ll likely be just a series of one shots. I also am currently pre writing an Invader Zim AU fanfic, it’s an AU where Dib and Gaz are sirens. I’ve currently got some chapters of it already written, however I want to finish it before I post it. I feel like this fic has taught me a lot and I’m glad.

[mister13eyond]

4, 6, 16!

4.) Which has the most “you” in it, however you’d define that?

I think it's definitely April 6th, for a whole lot of reasons- I talked about this a little yesterday, but it's very much a fic that (even though I didn't know it at the time) was me Dissecting a lot of things- but on a less introspective note, I think it also has the most "me" in it simply because I gave up making it a fic comprised only of words Very Quickly. I've always struggled with the actual act of putting words down on the page, so writing April 6th as not only chapters but also text exchanges, social media posts, polaroid images, a twine game with illustrations, etc really let me tell the story in a way that feels more ME? I'm a kind of all over the place person and it's a kind of all over the place fic, but because of that I think it's very much the kind of thing that has My Voice all over it and I'm still really proud of it!

6.) Idea that you always wanted to write but could never make work?

God, I think there are two tied for the top and both of them are horror concepts 😭i LOVE horror and i LOVE good horror writing but i struggle so hard with catching the FEELING of horror in text alone? The first one was a fic about Giorno attempting to use GER to bring Bruno back from the dead that I got 90% of the way through and then just COULD NOT get the ending to hit right- nothing felt like it hit hard enough!

The other was a KiraBoss fic that was ESSENTIALLY consensual snuff rp- diavolo is still deathlooped and kira is a ghost haunting his home in morioh, and every night they play out scenes where Kira hunts Diavolo through the house and kills him, only for a twist at the end to reveal this is an elaborate game they play and they're both Super into it. I still REALLY love the concept but the actual pacing and atmosphere of the horror segment with Diavolo being hunted and murdered just... never felt sufficiently horror-y.... so it will linger in my mind forever i suppose!

16.) 3 favorite comments ever received on fanfic.

god, there are So many that I would say, it's honestly been wild getting so many heartfelt and in depth comments on my work? like holy shit i made something that people are Having Feelings about. I made something and it gave people emotions and they're reacting to it and it's really actually reaching people emotionally? holy fuck?

then there's this one which made me fucking HEEHOO when it hit back to back (context is kinda hard to explain without spoilers, but giorno Does Some Fuckshit and then the immediate next chapter changes course):

and lastly, this one which ONLY exists in screencap form for reasons that will become apparent-

but honestly i could go on and on, it's kinda insane and special to me that people have said anything sincere and heartfelt or funny and witty or ANYTHING about my work?

(also bonus points: i. i literally keep a compilation of every time someone has said my fic made them cry. this is actually an outdated version but the current one is on a different device so.)

[iveneverbeenmorestressedinmylife]

Λοιπόν για το ask game θέλω να ξέρω για την Reagan. Έχω όμως περιέργεια για την Christine Daae, θέλω να ξέρω εντυπώσεις

Reagan Ridley 🧪

First impression: oh so this is one of those characters thats specifically catered to my interests huh. Cool.

Impression now: Yeah of course she is my favourite. No surprises here. I have a type.

Favorite moment: ... that moment in the final episodes where the camera zoomed into her missing finger, the deadlines on her calendar, her meds and brett immediately went from telling her how sad he would be if she left the company to pretending that he wasnt sad at all because he knows how much she is suffering here and he only wants the best for her. Even if it means never seeing her again. Also EVERYTHING about Appleton tbh. God. Also that time she kicked her dad out of her house??? Queen.

Idea for a story: haven't had any concrete story ideas about my girl reagan sadly 😔 i should get around to reading some inside job fanfics, get some inspo.

Unpopular opinion: nothing comes to mind really. I haven't interacted a lot with the inside job fandom to know their popular and unpopular opinions tbh.

Favorite relationship: god.... Bret and reagan besties 4ever. Also! I was shocked by how much i liked her relationship with ron?? I usually hate it when my fave characters get a love interest half way through a show. Like HATE IT hate it. But honestly when they first started dating i couldn't help but wonder HOW she was going to fuck it up. Like this is Reagan we are talking about, she cant be happy for more than a few episodes in a row so i was hooked waiting for their relationship to fall apart somehow and holy shit????? Their ending was literally so much better than everything i could have ever imagined??? I was sobbing my eyes out god bless.

Favorite headcanon: this woman is bi sorry i don't make the rules. But honestly i feel like i don't have a lot of headcanons about her sadly.

Christine Daae 🎵

First impression: just an average girl character from a century old book. Nothing too wild.

Impression now: oh this girlie is INSANE insane. Ive seen it. I enjoy it. Impressive case of daddy issues. Beautifully kind and determined. She wasn't even in love with the phantom my girl thought she was being visited by the angels sent by her dead father. Good for her. Honestly the phantom is WAY closer to what i usually consider My Type when it comes to fictional characters when compared to Christine. My love for her completely blindsided me, she was one of those characters i didn't expect to be my faves.

Favourite moment: "wishing you were somehow here again" for the musical and everything about her insane "talking with the weird gremlin man who lives in my walls and pretending he is an angel" era for the book. Also the cemetery scene in the book? My girl is delusional.

Idea for a story: none tbh. I haven't read this book in years im not as obsessed with her as i was back then but she still holds a special place in my heart.

Unpopular opinion: idk i never had a strong opinion on the whole phantom - christine - raoul love triangle thing and i feel like the people fighting over this are a little insane skksks. Like. I don't think she ever fully loved erik even tho she sympathized with him? Also fighting over who Christine should choose reminds me of the people who used to fight over who katniss from the hunger games would choose. Like peeta is Katniss' chance to heal while gale is still at war and raoul is the light while erik is the night!! Of course she chose raoul in the end like cmon. Now, that doesn't mean that i can't appreciate the fucked up insane relationship between a basement dwelling sewer man who kills people just because and a grief stricken woman who searches for divinity in everything that surrounds her.

Favourite relationship: probably erik and christine solely for the fucked up factor. Also her relationship with her father even tho he is dead before the book starts and we barely know anything about him. Its pretty obvious that his death affects her a lot.

Favourite headcanon: cant really think of anything tbh. Once again its been a while since i last read this book. But also i feel very strongly about this woman being a brunette for no particular reason.

[transhawks]

So. Just wondering, was my ask about a potential nickname for Jin by Hawks munched by tumblr, or is it just one of the asks you didn't feel like answering? Totally fine btw! Still got Jinkei thoughts to share, and this is uuhhhhh...............not as Jinkei, but it's got me making an "omfg" and 😐 expression at the thought, and I may be the biggest clown for this, but what's the likelihood of Hawks burying Jin? He just confessed to cleaning up the crime scene (ok you mean to tell me the first thing he did waking up from the hospital was run to Jin???) the body must've still been there otherwise he'd be sounding the alarm to the heroes over it. "Aw hell no, insert any villain ever got here before I did and now Toga must have his blood!" Instead it's "...DABI YOU ASS-" Really thought he swiped everything clean so it was all gucci, except Dabi took his opportunity before Machia came soon as Hawks was gone. Which begs the question: was Hawks asking Dabi for his identity and asking all those questions actually a way to distract him from the body? He only started doing that after Dabi talked about how how useful Twice would've been for his dream. He must've panicked then, and wouldn't want Dabi realizing he could just ask Toga to "go wild" with Twice's quirk instead.

I can't find it!!!! I'm really behind on asks because of the big RP tourney on my game server this weekend, so sorry. Please resend it!!! Yeah, I have some...... thoughts....

Honestly, this is sounding like Keigo fucking crawled out of the hospital to go deal with Jin's body. Which....

this man is so fucking crazy

god this man is GAY

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

...why IS ANOTHER ONE OF MY FANFICS CANON AGAIN

I DIDNT MEAN TO HAVE KEIGO BURY JIN FUCKING HELL

GOD IT REALLLY SOUNDS LIKE HE DISPOSED OF THE FUCKING CORPSE HERE WHAT THE FUCK KEIGO

IM JUST STUNNED.

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO THIS

WHY ARE WE CURSED WITH THIS HOMOCIDAL HOMOSEXUAL CHICKEN???????

im gonna reanalyze this for hours but holy fucking shit thank you for pointing this out. Mind blown. What the fuck.

[ediewentmissing]

pairing / eddie munson x reader

summary / eddie finds out who you have a crush on and he goes wild

an / i haven’t written fanfics in about a year, so i’m really really rusty. just give me some time <3 please consider sharing or reblogging if you enjoy this.

i wrote this one because i totally do not have a crush on kirk hammet.

(————— ——————)

“Bull fucking shit,” Eddie leans in further towards you from the opposite side of the table, pressing his rings against the wooden surface, “Everyone has a crush on at least someone.”

He’d asked you whether you liked anyone or not and you’d instantly denied the thought. But he was right, it was bullshit. He could tell by your cocky face that you weren’t going to budge, but that didn’t stop him from surrendering.

“How about a fixation? Y’know, just a celebrity that you’re interested in maybe?” He pushes, eager to know. You sigh huffily, returning your gaze to the homework you were supposed to be helping Eddie with. But your eyes don’t stay on your notes for long, as he gets up and sits himself down next to you, using his cynical, puppy-dog eyes to try to get something out of you.

“Okay, okay,” He straightens up, excited, “Tell you what, if I tell you who my celebrity crush is, you have to promise to let me help you study for this test otherwise you’re gonna be totally screwed, man.” He nods his head and leans impossibly further in towards you, maintaining tense eye contact. You prepare yourself for the inevitable teasing that will come out of this, taking in a deep breath before you murmur, “Kirk.” Eddie frowns.

“I require a last name, Y/N.”

“Kirk Ham—“ Your answer is cut short as he leaps out of his seat and jogs around the table in a frenzy.

“HAMMET?! KIRK HAMMET?!” You nod, cupping your face in embarrassment. “Holy shit!” He either worked himself up a bit too much or he was really and truly taken aback by your confession. He paced back and forth, looking as if he just shit himself.

“THIS… THIS IS GROUNDBREAKING! I-I MEAN, CHECK MY PULSE! I’M HAVING HEART PALPITATIONS, Y/N!” He reached out to grab your wrist, and he placed your palm on his chest. This sent your mind. I am touching Eds’ chest. I can feel his hot breath against me. His hands are so soft and rough at the same time. His rings are prodding my fingers.

His heart was jumping out of his chest. “Jesus, Eds! Calm down.” You pull your hand away from him, although secretly not wanting to, and he sits back down next to you. He gives you a confused frown that asks ‘Why Kirk of all people?’ You roll your eyes.

Eddie knew you well. You were awfully similar to him, so it made sense that your type was the same as his; metalhead and hot. However, your admission to having a thing for the band member confused him. You’d dated Tommy H, that Hargrove guy that intimidated Eddie and numerous other dudes, but you being interested in Kirk was different. It felt too close to home.

“Fire away.” You say, throwing your hands up in the air, inviting him to ask about it. He babbles a mess of a thousand questions all at once and you have to press your index finger up to his lips (his plush, pink, lips) to get him to stop.

“Slow down, Eddie. Two questions max.” He opens his mouth to protest but you interject, “Two questions max.” He holts, choosing carefully between questions, ruling out the stupid ones that he had asked previously. You look down.

“How long…” He says after a while, “How long have you liked him?” He watches you attentively as you scrunch you nose, trying to rewind your memory. You fiddle with the cuffs on your sleeves, turning them inside out, then outside in again.

“Uh,” You hesitate, looking him again, “Two years-ish?” His mouth gapes open.

“TWO—“ You glare at him and he clears his throat and tries again, “Two whole years and you didn’t tell me?” You shrug and he scoffs sarcastically, posing as being offended. “What do you like about him?”

For some reason this triggers a swooning spiral from you. “Mmm. God. His smile, his hair, his eyes, his hands, his slutty waist and body.” Every second word executed exaggeration from you and Eddie was blown away. You were close to drooling over this man that he’d never heard you talk about before today and he was awestruck.

“Christ, you really do like him.”

Crash Into You

Summary: During what was supposed to be a standard ride along in an F18, both engines unexpectedly malfuntion. Flight surgeon and Rooster’s back-seater, Jess has had a contentious relationship with Lt Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw for years but that comes into question after they land safely. 

Pairing: Bradly “Rooster” Bradshaw” x OC Female Character

Warnings: Cussing

A/N: Does anyone have those shower thoughts for fanfics? Like, a scene that just pops into your head? This, Dear Reader, is one of those. Sometimes I have ideas but can't really flesh them out quiet yet but I have this scene. Basically, here is a no context bit of dribble my little brain box just had to spit out. Enjoy!

(Oh, I guess for some context, OC is a flight surgeon. Fancy name for a doctor in the Navy that works with pilots.)

EDIT: If you liked this, I am working on a full fic you can find here.

The second my feet land, I unhook from my parachute and sprint over to where Rooster had just touched down.

"Bradshaw!" I puff out a few breaths. "Anything broken?"

"No." Bradley glances up at me as he unhooks the last carabiner.

"Any bleeding?" I assess his face and neck. Just the old scars he's had since I've known him.

He shakes his head. "I don't think so."

I place my hands on either side of his head to look at his pupils. They don't look abnormal given the circumstances.

"Breathing? D-do you have any shortness of breath?"

"No, Jess-" Bradley slips out of my grasp with a jerk.

"How about limbs, everything moving okay?"

Bradley starts waving his arms around and lets out a loud, exasperated grunt.

"Harris, stop doctoring for two damn minutes!"

I clamp my mouth shut. I have about a dozen more questions lined up. There's a list of things I want to, no need to, ask to know he's okay. He got us out of that plane, I can at least make sure we are both in one piece from here. It's all I can mentally, or even emotionally, grasp at the moment. I'm sure it'll eventually catch up with me that I had been in a life or death situation moments ago.

Bradley's hands come down on my shoulders and he gives them a light shake. "Are you okay?"

"Huh?" I'm shaking a bit. My legs feel a bit like noodles.

"You just ejected from a jet that was also on fire. Are you, Jessica Harris, okay?"

I stop my whirring mind and take stock; which in hindsight should have been the first thing I should have done when I landed. But years of medical training in crisis situations put my default mode to Run-And-Assist-Others. I've never had to make sure I was okay. Or at least, not until everyone else was stable and I could collapse in a supply closet from exhaustion.

From what I could tell, no major pains, just soreness which is to be expected when you're ripped out of an aircraft and jostled around by a parachute. Rooster is looking at me intently, face lined with worry. My heart seems to be doing funny things under his scrutiny. Or that could be the adrenaline wearing off.

"Yeah, I'm…I'm fine. I just…"

"Doctor mode, I get it," his hands slide off my shoulders to wrap me in a hug. My shaking subsides a touch. This is nice. And unexpected. But mostly nice. I sag a bit.

"But sometimes you're allowed to act like a human."

I nod into his shoulder. He smells a bit like jet fuel and burnt fabric. A panicked laugh rips out of me. Rooster lets me go slowly and I stumble back like a new born deer.

"Holy shit, holy shit!"

Rooster watches as I rip off my helmet and pace.

"I train pilots on this kind stuff but the real thing is wild. Fucking...insane!"

Rooster breaks next. The smile makes him look younger. "I've been shot down before but I will never get used to that. Punching out, I mean."

I stop pacing. "You've been shot down?"

"With Mav, last year," Rooster's laugh dies off. A few feelings flit by on his face. Fear? Sorrow? Relief? I can't read him and I'm struck with a strong uneasiness by this fact. I've spent so long disliking this man based on a few interactions from the past. I know nothing of the person standing before me today. I've willingly overlooked who he's become. A seasoned pilot. A reliable friend. A man who acted with calm authority as both engines failed and we were in a free fall, who told me to punch out as if this was something we did all the time.

I never allowed myself to give him another chance.

Nothing like almost dying to change your mind.

I hear a helicopter thumping in the distance. Broken away from my thoughts, I wave my arms to the rescue team. Normally I'd be in that chopper, on the way to do preliminary diagnosis and treatment of any pilot who is in a crash. Being the one needing the ride was a surreal moment. Rooster and I do our best to stuff our parachutes into their packs as the rescue team lands about 100 yards away. We're silent during the ride back. We both look bone tired. I keep catching him looking at me with those kind, dark brown eyes.

When we get back to base I'm instructed to be checked out by the on duty flight surgeon for precaution-sake. Rooster will eventually follow but he needs to debrief with Maverick and the airboss and whoever else needs to hear about our afternoon. Before we part, Rooster grabs my arm gently.

"You sure you're okay?" His voice is soft. Warm.

I give him a weak smile. The day has drained any will to be quippy.

"Yeah."

"Good," he gives my arm a light squeeze before letting go. "I'll let you check me out later."

"Sorry, what?" On their own accord, my eyes give him a once over. It's unfair that he still looks good in a disheveled state.

"I know you have more questions for me. Don't you need to make sure my brain's not busted or something?"

I roll my eyes. "I think that happened before you got to the Navy."

"There she is," Rooster smirks and turns on his heel.

Random TOH questions because I am bored. I found these questions on Twitter (I'll link them in the source) but I just thought why not.

Favorite Character?

Willow and Hunter. It's hard to pick just one, but they are definitely my favorites. Hunter is too relatable and Willow is just wholesome.

Least favorite character?

Kikimora. I think it's pretty self explanatory but she did try to kill Hunter and is nothing but a kiss ass.

If you were in hexside, would you study more than 1 magic or just 1? And tell which ones!! (Basically what track would you be in)

I think it depends. If I was given the choice to study more than one track then I probably would. And it would be healing and bard. If I could only study one then it would just be bard.

Favorite ship?

I don't know weither to count Lumity since they are an official couple now. If not then Raeda.

Favorite crack ship?

Goldric or Huntira. Can't pick but people draw the ships so soft and it's cute.

Promote yourselfs ! edits, art, fanfics, anything!

Hi. Welcome to my tumblr.

What's your favorite piece of crew art?

This is one that Dana drew. I love the crew's art so much but this is so relatable because I have a bird and he is the same way.

8. If you could be one character, who would you be?

Raine. Purely because they can play the violin and I play the violin.

9. According to your friends, what character do you remind them of? (Ask friends!/nf)

A majority of them said King because I crave destruction. Others said it was because I'm short. I'M NOT THAT SHORT OK?

10. Top kinnie?

Hunter, all the way.

11. Any theories of what will happen in season 2b?

I think that Lumity might break up and get back together. I have more but there's things I'm not entirely certain about. So that's all I'm gonna share.

12. What ship would you KILL for to be canon?

That's actually a good question. If you sked me before season 2a I would've said Lumity. But now I don't really ship anyone else other than Raine and Eda. But even then it seems like it's going to become a thing so I don't really have one.

13. If you were a demon, what species would you be? Biped? Witch? Human? Griffins? Bug? Or beast? All up to you? And whichever you choose, is there a reason why?

If I were to choose, I would choose witch. But I feel like I would be a biped.

14. If you lived in owl house.. would you rather live in the demon realm, or human realm?

Demon Realm. The human world is boring compared to the demon realm. It would be a very interesting place to see.

15. Favourite adult? (Ex: raine, eda, camila, lilith, basically hags/hj )

Raine because I would like take bard lessons from them. And Camila because she reminds me of my mom.

16. Favourite teenager? (Ex: willow, gus, amity)

Hunter and Willow. I've said why in question one.

17. If you had a palisman, what would it be?

My bird Luca. He is a budgerigar bird.

18. Emperors coven, wild witch, or one track?

Emperor's coven. I'm a competitive person so I would always strive for the top. Ofc being a wild wotch would cross my mind, but i don't wanna be held in the comfomitorium.

19. Favorite Owl House AU?

Belos adopts Luz AU. I just like writing about it. Even if I don't have the time.

20. Whats a thing you LOVE about owl house?

Man I can't even pick one. There's so many thing that I love about this show. I guess the fact that it inspired me to start writing. That and the lore behind it all. There is so much mystery behind and it always blows my mind away when a new episode is released.

21. A thing/someone thats very underappreciated in owl house?

Willow and Gus's magic. HOLY SHIT ARE THEY POWERFUL. I don't think people realized the amount of potential these two characters have. There are so many questions I have about them and about their powers. It's evident that they are not like the average teen so I would like to see more background knowledge about them.

There are more questions, but they are about opinions on certain things so I'll do them later.

A “Riz & Adaine being lowkey besties” fanfic

The morning after they rescue Adaine & Aelwyn from Calethriel Tower, after she restores Aelwyn’s memory to before she was captured, Adaine is sitting at the back of the Van trying not to spiral. Riz joins her, and they have a little chat. 

(This is the first Fantasy High fic I’ve ever written & the first fanfic I’ve written in a hot minute so I’m sorry if it’s not the best but I needed this to exist because I love Riz & Adaine’s friendship sm.)

    The songs of the Treants danced through the air around Kei Lumennura as Adaine sat at the back of the van with the doors open wide. Her sister was curled up and unconscious inside, restored back to her unfortunate past self. There had been an abundance of pain seeing her sister weak and broken and vulnerable, but there had also been hope. Hope that maybe this would be a new start for the sisters. Aelwyn had spoken to her in a way that made Adaine finally feel like her equal, finally feeling like she wanted to care for her instead of casting Ray of Sickness at any chance she got. But the world was cruel and unforgiving, so the walk through Aelwyn’s mind had torn her heart out and then had given her no time to grieve. 

    The old Aelwyn was back, her father was possibly dead, and her mother was working for somebody who definitely wasn’t good. The anxiety was mounting, quickly. She’d taken her meds upon waking up this morning but that just took the edge off enough to keep her from being incapacitated by her panic attacks. Holding Boggie tightly to her chest, she was lost in her own thoughts as the rest of the group carried on. After some time, she was interrupted by a familiar voice. 

    “So… It’s been a uh, wild few days, huh?” She lifted her eyes from the spot on the ground they’d been focused on to see Riz standing in front of her. 

    She scoffed lightly and nodded her head, not saying anything. 

    Riz didn’t say anything else for a long moment either. He moved to lift himself up and sit beside her in the back of the van, his legs swinging slightly as they dangled over the edge. There was a heaviness in her chest. 

    She wanted to be back home, with Jawbone there to help her through any crises she may have, or at least to have her group therapy once a week to keep her grounded. She wanted to be far away from Fallinel, far away from those who had captured her and were most likely going to execute her. Adaine missed Elmville terribly, and she missed the comfort of familiarity and regularity that it brought to her just as much. 

    “I’m really glad you’re back,” Riz finally spoke again. He rubbed the back of his neck and turned his head to look at her. “We weren’t really sure what was happening to you, or what they were going to do with you, and that was…” He sighed, “The not knowing was scary.” 

    “I’m pretty sure they were going to execute me.” Adaine said quietly. 

    Riz’s brow shot up in surprise. “What?!” 

    “Yeah. I mean.. I was basically given a choice. Either stay and be their Elven Oracle and do everything they told me to do.. Or they were going to kill me, so the gift of the Oracle could be passed on to somebody else, somebody who would stay in Fallinel and do what they wanted.” The weight of the words leaving her lips fell on her shoulders like boulders. She felt too numb to cry. 

    “Holy shit Adaine… And your dad was fine with that?” 

    “Of course he was, Riz. He’s a foul little worthless excuse of a man. We already knew that.” She spit the words out venomously. 

    Riz said nothing in response, just pursed his lips together and nodded his head silently. 

    Boggie let out a soft ribbet as she held him in her arms. 

    “They tortured my sister there for so long… She was like a shell of a person when I found her. So broken and helpless… When she woke up here she asked me if we escaped or if we died and honestly, I’m not sure which answer she was hoping to hear from me…” She was silent for a few seconds before continuing, “Then I thought maybe we’d have a chance to really get to know each other, for the first time like… ever? Maybe we could be on the same side for once… But now that version of Aelwyn is gone and she’s back to being exactly who I always hated her for being.” Adaine let out a shaky breath and pulled her feet up, crossing her legs criss-cross beneath her. 

    “Does that make me a bad person? For wishing she could be in pain again, and wishing she could remember what she went through these past few months just because it hurts me more if she doesn’t?” She turned her head to look at Riz. 

    He laughed and she furrowed her brow at him. 

    “Sorry, I’m not— I’m not trying to laugh at you.” He shook his head and turned to meet her eyes, “It’s just funny to me that you think you could ever be a bad person.” He offered a small smile.

    She held his gaze for a moment, searching his face and finding nothing but genuine care and honesty. They’d talked about her family before. She’d told him bits and pieces about her parents, about how they were growing up, about her sister. There had been times when she’d even confided in him how she wished she and Aelwyn could’ve been close. He’d heard her say that it didn’t matter how much she hated and resented her sister, there would always be a part of her that wished things had gone differently. There would always be a part of her that longed to be close with her sister, and a part of her that loved her. 

    Riz knew what she struggled with. He knew how hard she tried to be the opposite of what her parents were, of what they’d turned her sister into. And he’d always been quick to reassure her that she was far from resembling anything close to them. 

    Adaine sighed softly before she looked out over the elven sanctuary, taking it all in. 

    “Are you okay?” He asked after a few more moments of quiet between them. 

    She scoffed again. “My shitty dad might be dead. I didn’t even get to have one nice day with my sister after saving her from being tortured for months on end. My mom is working for the Nightmare King or Kalina or whoever it is exactly that we’re dealing with. I almost got executed while I was in Elf prison and now I’m basically a fugitive, so,” She shrugged, throwing her hands up a bit as she did. Riz grimaced and she sighed heavily again, dropping her hands onto her lap. “I’m fine.” 

    Riz looked at her, skeptically raising his brow.

    “You don’t seem fine.” He challenged. She turned her head and shot him a look, opening her mouth to say something, but he continued before she had a chance, “You don’t have to talk about it. I’m not here to be a dick, I was just worried about you. I was really worried about you while you were gone and I thought maybe that I’d feel better now that you’re back with us but… I’m still worried.” It was his turn to shrug, lifting his shoulders and letting them fall gently back down. 

    “I don’t know what’s gonna happen with you and your sister or you and your family and these fuckin’ elves. There are still so many things we don’t have answers for and I don’t.. I don’t like not having answers. But when you weren’t here it just became so much more clear to me that nobody—” He stopped himself short, scrunching her nose in thought for a moment before continuing, “We can’t— I can’t do this without you.” He adjusted the hat atop his head. “This isn’t gonna happen again. I won’t let it happen again.” 

    “Well we seem to have taken down Calethriel Tower so I don’t think it could even if you wanted it to.” She said teasingly. 

    “Yeah I wanted to ask what happened with all that but there hasn’t really felt like a right time?”

    “Oh, Fig played her bass and it cracked a gem that made the whole thing come crumbling down. It was kind of rad, honestly.” 

    Riz chuckled softly. “Wild..”

    “Yeah, but I didn’t really expect anything less.” Adaine laughed along with him. 

    Another silence, comfortable and soft, settled between them as they looked out into the sanctuary, Fabian still dancing as the rest of the group encouraged him. 

    Still looking forward, Riz spoke again, “I’m sorry you got kidnapped and held as a prisoner, Adaine. We should’ve protected you so much better than we did. I wanted to come break you out sooner but we had some hang ups when we first got here, a bit of culture shock that set us back longer than I wanted and then the usual nonsense that set us back even more. I didn’t want you feeling like we were partying and having a good time and enjoying ourselves while you were being tortured or whatever... It felt fucked up.” 

    “That’s because it probably was a little fucked up.” She said, an ever-so-slight grin on her face as she teased him. 

    “I know,” He sighed, not completely acknowledging her teasing tone, “I couldn’t enjoy any of it. Fabian’s grandpa is too much to handle, honestly, and I thought the trees were kind of a nice vibe but then they started singing and it’s just…” He shook his head, clearing his thoughts and refocusing, “I’m just glad you’re with us again… This whole thing,” He gestured around to the rest of the party, to the van, to their surroundings, “Isn’t the same without you.” 

    She pursed her lips and gave a small smile, nodding her head slightly. 

    “I’m here if you ever want to talk, you know that, right?” He turned his head again to look at her, holding eye contact with her. 

    “I know,” She parroted the words he’d said not but a few seconds before, but sounding much gentler. “Thanks, Riz.” She smiled at him. It was a saddened, anxious, and broken smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes. 

    “Anything for my best friend.” He replied, giving her a small smile and nudging her side gently with his elbow.

    After a few more seconds of silent eye contact, communicating thoughts of understanding and concern and care that Adaine felt too exhausted to have exchanged out loud, they both looked forward again. Sitting in silence, no longer alone, the comfort of Riz Gukgak’s presence beside her helped her feel like maybe she’d be alright outside of Elmville for a little while longer after all.

@lavstar i was so incredibly stupid and i deleted your ask while i was drafting it… i swear i didn’t forget to do it 😭 anyway i’ve FINALLY finished it so let’s jump into the compilation of the most planes i have ever brainrot ❤️ because no ❤️ you cannot expect me to pick one ❤️ it is impossible ❤️

two airbus A320s taking off from parallel runways, five nautical miles apart ‘cause they’re not gay!

btw i genuinely do not care about military aircraft (never have, prob never will) so these are all to do with civil aviation. also huge disclaimer i did all the commentary off the top of my head (i did have to wikipedia some of the stats im not martin fucking crieff) so if i mess up a term or something that’s on me

of course no post about my favorite planes cannot leave out the OG. my first love, the most plane i have ever ridden; the one, the only, the increasingly irrelevant due to industry shifts, the beloved Airbus A380.

(L) just look at this big beautiful girl! + (R) a view of i believe scotland? as approached from the north

i don’t know why i love this plane so much, because lots of other people certainly don’t for a lot of reasons. her size makes her the main character out of necessity at every airport she comes across, and she’s an inconvenience for air traffic controllers for that reason. her origin story is [twitter stan account voice] a bit problematic. given changes in industry trends, she is also quickly becoming irrelevant. airbus my beloved please just admit that the four engines thing was nostalgia and go. she’s a marvel of engineering sure, but when all is said and done…the B747 came, she served cunt, and then she got phased out. the A380 was made with the intention of doing the same…unfortunately, she didn’t really complete the second step.

wait holy shit. i know why i love this plane so much. it’s because this plane…is me ❤️

—

and now for thee og in terms of famous big-ass planes that everyone loves: the B747. everyone loves the 747. even if they say they’re not into planes, they are. for me, not gonna lie: a very big reason for why i love the Queen of the Skies so much is mark vanhoenacker’s book, skyfaring. he flew the 747 for bri’ish airways (when they still had them) and loved that plane so much and man who am i to blame him.

(L) i think i teared up when i saw her through the big windows for the first time bc i was like oh my god. i am going to be on her. this icon of aviation, the arguable symbol of commercial aviation. so much history, so much significance… + (R) the past, the present, and the future of british airways in one image 🥺

i was on a 747 twice in my life. once on a cathay pacific flight to the philippines, and on my last flight abroad, on a british airways flight to heathrow. little did i know i was flying one of the last of their 747 flights—they phased them out completely the following year, a bit earlier than anticipated due to the pandemic.

as enzo ferrari once probably said, “ask a child to draw a plane, and certainly he will put a hump and four engines on it.” in terms of sheer iconic power and energy, the Queen (and she is the only earthly being to whom I shall ever refer as such) would far and away be the top on anyone’s list, save for the fact that i don’t have a top to this list and i have other planes to get to dear god this is getting long do you know what you’ve got yourself into!! the Queen really said “flight belongs to the people now” and the airlines just had to shut up and listen!! she is truly the main character!!!

genuinely don’t remember what river this is except that it’s in the UK… 🙈

i feel like everything else i say about her is just going to be a pale imitation of how evocative skyfaring was, so honestly i really recommend the book it’s so good and it’s one of my favorites. my copy is sort of falling apart now bc i kept bringing it around to places 😭 anyway, the number of airlines using her for passengers is decreasing, but you know who still use converted versions of her as well as purpose-built models? cargo airlines! anyway, ups and their brown planes my beloved 🤎

—

this slot was going to go to the B767 and 757, and i was going to rhapsodize about how aesthetically the 767 looks like a nicer plane to me because of Chonk, but the 757 is really endearing because it’s a narrowbody jet and it’s got landing gear that is long in a useful but unusual-looking way, which in essence what i’m trying to say is that if the 757 were a person, it would be esteban ocon.

so i was getting ready to write all of this down in much more words than i needed, but i remembered suddenly the very reason i was making this post in the first place. and that, my friends, is the B777.

honestly you don’t fully understand how big the 777 is until you see it in person. because we are all acclimated to think of like the 747 when we think of ‘big plane.’ but the 777 is massive. even i forgot about it when i wrote That Fanfic.

the 777 and 787 are the future of long-haul commercial aviation (and i say this as an A380 stannie). widebody jets with 2 big-ass engines are most likely what we’re going to see in the sky going forward when it comes to long-distance travel, and the pandemic pretty much confirmed that.

that aside, i love the 777. so much that i wrote a whole fanfic around one making an emergency landing ❤️ i really pretended ETOPS (the thing where a plane can fly for a long time on one engine) did not exist for six chapters and an alternate ending and i think that’s just very quirky of me aha 🤪

dear god do not mind my hat i literally bought it because of fred fucking thursday of endeavour… what the FUCK was teenage me on 😭

the 777 was supposed to be a trijet (one with three engines, two under each wing and one built into the vertical stabilizer) but as the mcdonnell douglas and lockheed martin trijets (cba to look up the numbers) were not projected to continue to be successful, they got rid of the trijet 777 idea and instead made it have two engines. another thing i think is neat is that all the examples of the 777 that you will see in the wild right now don’t have winglets bc the wings themselves are so long and raked back that they’re not necessary. which would be a weird thing for me in particular to find neat, because if you know me well you know i have a thing for winglets. (the 2022 f1 car’s front wing my BELOVED WAKSKDKSJSJ!!!!!) i also think the way the wingtip lights are incorporated into the wings are so neat. the upgraded version they’re trying to make now, the 777X, will have foldy wingtips so you can DIY your own winglets and i think that’s hilarious (and also cool).

—

genuinely i think i’m the only plane person that likes this last aircraft: the Embraer ERJ-175. i like her for purely nostalgic reasons. she reminds me of how i returned to my roots and decided to pursue engineering.

so okay this is going to have nothing to do with the plane, but i was lucky enough to be given a visit to the flightdeck after landing back home from a weekend trip. i was so excited to be allowed to sit in the first officer’s seat, and got to poke around the flightdeck for like ten minutes. which was cool, but all this was with the sinking realization that even operating a regional jet might be too physically demanding (read: unsafe) for someone of my… [exhales knowing EXACTLY what i’m about to walk into] height.

that is one fully glass cockpit. also those yokes are specific to embraer, boeing’s look more like f1 steering wheels with stuff cut out of them i think, and airbus’s are operated by side stick. it’s almost funny especially when watching flightdeck videos of the a380 cause it’s like… you’re doing All That *gestures vaguely at plane* with THAT *gestures at thing that looks like a chicken drumstick with semiconductors implanted in it*

so that was piloting as a career done with for me (much to my family’s relief.) and then i thought “hm i don’t have to be flying planes all the time to be working around them…why don’t i work on developing them instead?” and i was passively interested in matsci already, so that’s how and when i decided to pursue engineering, with hopes of working for airbus or boeing and in civil aviation.

we’ll see how that pans out, i say as i side-eye the exponential growth of my interest in motorsport.

thanks for the ask! i’m so sorry i was stupid and deleted it but i hope you like this very long, drawn out, and frankly deranged response 💚

Shag anon but im putting on a warrior cats mask rn. THERE STUFF U MISSED!! First off, Cats cant taste sweet stuff, but im pretty sure medicine cats use honey to hide food bc its sweet. And i wanna actually expand ur reach rq bc we have Midnight and Rock hanging out who just feel extremely weird even in the context of the series. Maybe its just power creep but theres a whole fuckin badger that is meowing out there. Theres even foxes!! Im still pissed about hollyleaf and the fox cub bc she 100% couldve raised the cub BUT theres a short story out there i swear. where graystripe is in charge while firestar is gone and a fox is hunting prey so the clans get together to chase it out, but by the end graystripe realizes the fox A) understands them, B) has cubs, and C) sorta tells the fox to leave and the fox NODS and leaves??? Idk if im imagining it i could be. I thought ivypool met a cat who speaked wolf for the LONGEST time but it was kid me reading fanfic and taking it as fact and my friends had to tell me that, no, there was no cool wolf cats. Anyways i am gonna touch on cat behavior real quick, arent male cats suuuuper aggressive about mates? Also there is a throwaway line about leafpool getting plump so she did grow a stomach while pregnant but ig everyone just thought thunderclan was eating well (theres problems with THAT too since theres be other signs but, like you said. no cat sex ed). Theres also the fact that humans would 500% find out about the clans some way or another. You're telling me that no one thought it odd that literally hundreds of cats were in the forest? Or that they made structures and dens? or saw then travelling and grouping up and shit??? Anyways cats are aliens thats why cat heaven is called StarClan

SCOOB AND SHAG ANON U AND I ARE BROTHERS IN ARMS- unless you don't like that term in which case I will respectfully high five you and say we are Besties. Or something. The point is that I think you're cool and I love reading your thoughts-

But yes THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING MY THEORY. MY COMPLETELY LEGITIMATE AND CORRECT THEORY ABOUT WARRIOR CATS. (context: [link])

I'm going fucking feral holy shit you're so right about all of this. I've always been so intrigued and confused by Midnight tbh--it's been a while since I read the books, but there's never any real.... canon confirmation on like Anything about her. I enjoy her existence for narrative reasons, but what's happening here. Millie speaks dog, Midnight speaks cat.... whadda hell

Also that Greystripe story and Hollyleaf with the fox cub.... there's a lot of potential for interesting dynamics with this series regarding the idea that the cats aren't the only sentient animals, but the series just doesn't address that most of the time. Though honestly that's kind of just a point with the series as a whole--lots of interesting concepts get brought up that are just never elaborated on.

(Also as a side-note, this reminds me of a story arc we did in a Warriors RP group I used to be part of. Long story short, it was about the foxes fucking unionizing to take out the clans, and it was really intense but also super interesting and had a lot of interesting fox NPCs who showed up. My favorite was the one-eyed vixen and her gay son <3)

AND ALSO ON THE NOTE OF THE HUMANS FINDING OUT, THAT ALSO BOGGLES MY MIND... THE CATS LIVE SO CLOSE TO CIVILIZATION. HOW HAS NO ONE FUCKING NOTICED. This was actually one thing that was addressed in that rewrite I mentioned that I liked--it suggested the concept of the humans being aware of the clan cats and like... making the clans' territory a protected national park of sorts, b/c imagine how amazing it'd be for tourism to show off these wild cats living in societies and having complicated rules and religions.

God what I wouldn't give to be an anthropologist in the Warriors universe studying cat societies

Anyway on the note of behavior as well, that was actually the thing in the rewrite that put me off reading it ASDFJKL;. It had a moment where Firepaw was super aggressive towards a kit b/c Instincts and it established like... a canon thing that toms aren't allowed nearthe nursery b/c they will try to harm kits that aren't theirs. I don't know how true that is to cat instincts, and I can definitely see that as an interesting concept to explore, but child death is like one of the three things that actively puts me in a really bad headspace when I encounter it without warning so I noped the fuck outta there.

Also man. Fireboy wouldn't do that. Not my orange man. He's built different.

Anyway I think you're 100% correct and I'm going to stand by this theory forever actually. Gonna rewrite Warrior cats but with the context that the cats are aliens (I am not going to do this).

[lady-ragnvindr]

So yeah anyways, I read the fanfic that people were talking about

(The Childe x Reader 🧊🥢thing ya know)

And uh... I kinda have mixed feelings about it?

⚠️: mentions of manipulation, literally something got ya know.. on (y/n)'s ahem.

(TUMBLR ATLEAST MAKE ME DO UTCS UGH)

I am aware that the series has like chapters on it and pretty much I don't know what majority of the context is on the fic but lemme tell you that

I stopped halfway through, the part where childe was denying to the reader that they love it because their body says yes but their mind says no otherwise while her ass got shoved by ice cubes and chopsticks (the ones zhongli bought for Childe 😭😭)

Ngl, kudos to the author for adding that detail holy shit

Look, I've had my fair share of reading dark shit.

(I mean, 117013 already took my soul 😬)

But this hits different like--- Jesus Christ I'm having war flashbacks about being emotionally manipulated.

But then again, curiosity got the better off me and well here I am somewhat fine and not???

So clearly there's no one to blame but myself

FJSKRKTKG

But going back, it's kinda scary that there are similar fanfics such as this one out there (like a cross many fandoms)

Not the NSFW stuff, more like the Stockholm syndrome and emotional manipulation type of shit and probably a small percent of the fandom is into that shit and kinda romanticize it???

Idk man, internet is wild sometimes.

But moving on, Can the people not mention this fanfic to The English VA of Childe Griffin Burns???

Like, that's not needed??? Why are you doing that are you OK??? Like, Griffin and Childe aren't the same person. He's just the voice of childe. Don't link him into these types of shit.

Smh, y'all be thinking it's cute to send hint this on his tiktok live, mans already been bashed by fans after promoting vday cards (one of them containing chilumi: Aka childe x lumine) give that man a break---

Just... In summary, Eh.

I genuinely don't know what to say other than, yeah these types of fanfics exist and for fucks sake don't include Childes VA in this.

To those who spammed 🧊🥢 on his live, fuck you.

To those who also blamed the reader when it's obvious that they are the victim, fuck you.

To the minors who make other minors read it,

Fuck you

-🍷

Ok usually im not a big fan of fics like that-- personally I hate fics like that bcz one, i hate how a lot of movies and fics do romanticize shit like that and yes sometimes, say the one that kidnapped you turns all good and cutsey with you and only for you, and this goes with my affection with some villains-- is adorable. BUT when its too toxic or when its just too far I just leave the fic or stop the movie and im out.

If ppl-- minors cant handle shit like that then fucking LEAVE THE FIC AND AUTHOR ALONE.

Its your fault for wven interacting the fic knowing the warnings of the fic itself and if you had curiosity then thats completely understandable but then you go and talk shit about it--BIG BRUH FUCKING MOMENT.

As for those who spammed the emojis ln Griffin- wtf were yall thinking about??!?! LEAVE THAT MAN ALONE.
