#I also dont know what to tag things as...

[genderoutlaws]

hello. i would like to preface this by saying i am assuming you have good faith when doing this, and i do not mean to come across as aggressive or mean or anything else other than trying to inform you of something you may not have been aware of. i am on anon purely to avoid facing harassment. you may simply call me 🦞 anon if you wish to refer to me.

as a transmascneu person, please do not use tme (assuming you mean transmisogyny exempt). it is a phrase used to minimalise our struggles and is often used in a misogynistic/transmisandristic manner (check out the tag "transandrodorks" for examples of this) (normally it is stuff like "these stupid tmes dont know what real oppression is!!!"). a lot of the time, tme/tma are just used in the same way agab is. it isnt used in productive discussions about gender or bigotry. its normally just used to deny peoples experiences and get them to shut up.

transmasculine and transfeminine and other trans people do have some differences in oppression, but one is not more or less oppressed than the other. plus even statistics are unreliable, as many trans people are misgendered after death so they are never included in those statistics.

(tw for mentioning violence and transphobia) many trans men are forcibly impregnated and not allowed access into shelters if they come out because theyre "for women only". likewise lots of trans women are harassed in bathrooms for being visibly trans or if someone just knows theyre trans, and also not allowed in shelters because theyre not "real women". nonbinary people can face similar consequences depending on the society theyre in and how theyre perceived. i would not say either fate is better or worse than the other. theyre somewhat different experiences, sure, but would i say being murdered is worse than forcibly impregnated? absolutely not. theyre both awful things that happen because of misogyny, transmisogyny, exorsexism, and transmisandry.

transmisogyny can affect people who arent transfeminine (and vice versa for transmisandry/exorsexism). despite not being transfem, i myself have been affected by it in many ways. i am also a person of colour, so i get affected by it simply for being hairy or having a larger nose than most of my white peers. this is why transmisogyny-exempt isnt a useful term to describe people that arent transfem; lots of poc, nontransfem trans people, butches, and intersex people can be heavily affected by transmisogyny! even cis perisex men can be! to say that theyre not at all is denying them their experiences and their ability to talk about their own oppression.

if you do want to talk about people who are nontransfem, imo its better to just say nontransfem because that puts a better point across than "these people that are not affected by transmisogyny". for example, we say white and people of colour. we do not say racism exempt and racism affected. racism can affect white people (personal prejudices plus also being perceived as a person of colour). however it is generally understood that racism is more likely to affect poc. likewise, transmisogyny generally affects transfems the most, but nontransfems can definitely experience it! i would say it is probably better to put cis/transmasc/trans man/nonbinary/transneu/queer/another way to word your relationship with gender than tme, if you would like others to know. if you dont then your pronouns are fine cuz tbf it isnt actually anyones business to know anything except how to politely refer to you.

i am not here to preach how transmascs or nonbinary people are actually "more oppressed" than transfems. i do not believe this at all. all i would like to say is that i think the language of tme/tma is neither productive or used productively and we have better ways of putting our points across and talking about our relationships to gender or society. thank you and good night.

entry number 1

I've lost everything. my brother, my friends, my house, my universe. all of it is just gone now

to top things off, the last thing i was doing was running away from temmie. i thought they were my friend, but after they got the six human souls somehow, they went on a rampage and started killing the remaining monsters left and right.

the only reason i escaped was because this otherworldly being dragged me through a body of water and brought me somewhere else.

this being's name is ink, they're a skeleton like me—they even look like me.

It was explained to me that my universe shattered from "too many plot holes" and i didn't know what that meant! what do you mean my world has too many "plot holes" it's not like it's a STORY.

WELL APPARENTLY IT IS A STORY. AND I DONT LIKE THINKING ABOUT THAT FOR TOO LONG.

So anyway, alternate realities are in fact real and there's a whole multiverse. Cool. Awesome. I just want to go home and for everything to go back to normal

But apparently my universe is completely gone, it doesn't exist i'm the only thing that remains from it. while there are some universes that have parallel realities mine was the only one if it's kind.

COOL. AWESOME. I'M BEING NORMAL ABOUT THIS.

IM THE ONLY THING THAT REMAINS OF MY UNIVERSE. MY UNIVERSE DOESNT EVEN EXIST ANYMORE. WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO GO. WHAT DO I EVEN DO? THIS "INK" PERSON IS WEIRD

When I was freaking out about my universe being GONE, he gave me this notebook and pencil to "calm down"

HOW IS THIS SUPPOSED TO CALM ME DOWN?! NOW I'M VENTING TO A NOTEBOOK WHILE HE STANDS THERE WATCHING ME FURIOUSLY WRITE!

entry number 2

It's been a day since my world was destroyed, I already miss my home. I've been missing my friends and brother.

At least Ink let me stick around. I've been staying at his place along with someone else named Dream, but I have yet to meet him since he's never here. It's comfy here, at least. I even have my own room (which looks suspiciously close to my old room actually. i think ink did that on purpose, maybe to cheer me up? i don't understand him).

Right now's around the time I'd study with Undyne, actually...well. at least i don't have to worry about getting into the royal science division.

Papyrus isn't around to read this. I feel bad that I've never told him this, but

I never really wanted to join the Royal Science Division. Even though I acted like it was my dream, it wasn't. I wanted to learn more about space.

but of course that's not possible when you live in the underground. (i guess that's not really a problem anymore? this doesn't make me happy)

and we've always been low on funds. the pay for it was too good to pass up. I've stolen so much just to keep us afloat. I was good at hiding that, though.

Too good. Maybe I should've told Papyrus once he was old enough. He never knew why I was kicked out...

How would I even tell him? There's so much I haven't, because I don't know how to word it.

"By the way, brother! Mom and dad didn't exactly like me 'trying to be someone who i'm not' and disowned me like i disowned my name! That's why we grew up in a scrapyard."

[there are various scribbles and dots here]

"You didn't have to follow me, y'know. you could've lived with them instead of stubbornly staying by my side it would've been easier"

no i wouldve missed him. even if it's selfish i'm glad he tagged along. he was always there for me

i wish i could say the same. I SHOULD be able to say the same but i CANT what poor excuse of a brother am i?

maybe. no. they'll never be right.

entry number 3

I met Dream for the first time. He's really. unique. I know he's dressed like someone straight out of an anime but I didn't expect him to ACT like someone straight out of an anime!

The way he talks, the way he moves. There's something uncanny about it, honestly. He also looks on the brightside like that's the only direction he can look. When he heard my universe was destroyed? Told me at least he's glad it's led to me meeting him and Ink??

Like No Offense To You Two But I Don't Think Losing My Entire Universe Was Worth Meeting You Two.

That's not to say I'm not glad to meet them! I am glad! Just not at the expense of my home and everyone I love!

wait when have i ever watched anime? where did i even learn what that means? it was one of my friends—or acquaintances that introduced me to it, surely. Why can't I remember?

I need to ask Ink something, maybe. hopefully he'll know.

entry number 4

so a consequence of my world shattering is that it's really easy to forget about it. because it doesn't exist.

after ink told me that, i can hardly remember anything about it.

it's like there's a big gap in my memory and all i remember is that i'm forgetting something.

like my scarf. i know there's a sentimental reason i wear it. there was something about it. something about the material it's made out of i think?

Entry number five

i had a brother his name is papyrus

i had a brother his name is papyrus

his name is papyrus. he's my younger brother

don't forget him. don't mistake him for the other papyruses in the multiverse.

he woreWhat did he wear? what was he Like? oh my god what was he like

papyrus. don't forget him. he isn't like the other papyruses in the multiverse don't use them as a point of reference don't let them replace whatever memories you have left of him.

"he isn't like the other papyrus's" HOW CAN I KNOW THAT FOR SURE? I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT HE WAS LIKE

entry number 6

The more I learn about the multiverse the more my memories of my universe are skewed. Also I learned (or, heh, remembered) I have memory issues in general on Top of the whole "universe not existing means it's hard to remember" thing.

So that's great

I was being a bit of a downer because of the revelation and Ink caught on so he asked me what was up. I decided to tell him, even though I thought he wouldn't really get it since he doesn't seem to be bothered by anything ever.

Oh man was I wrong. He completely understands

He also has memory issues. He told me he was soulless—which wow, I'm surprised he felt comfortable telling me—which really messes with your capacity for remembering things.

Even though he uses paint as a substitute for a soul, it doesn't fix his memory issues. So instead he writes stuff down on his scarf. He suggested I should do something similar, write down important things.

He told me that even if I can't necessarily hold information in my head for a long time, if I can hold it in my head long enough to write it down, that's enough.

It was reassuring.

entry number 7

Dear Papyrus,

I've seen a lot of different places in the past few days, places I wouldn't ever imagine seeing. Some of them are pretty, some of them are a mess. It's a bit hard to wrap my head around it, how small we are in comparison.

I already thought space was big, learning there were multiple universes made me feel even smaller. But even so, out of everything I've seen. I have yet to find a world like ours.

But if the universe is infinite, the amount of multiverses should be too, right? Another version of our universe, one that hasn't disappeared, has to be somewhere.

I'll look for it.

I'll find it.

I don't want to pretend to be talking to you through letters. I want to see you again. There's so much I have to tell you.

All the lies I've told you. I thought I was protecting you. I was really just saving myself the trouble of explaining everything.

i miss you, bro. i'm sorry i'm the one that made it and not you

entry number 8

i lived in a house with papyrus in snowland sity. i remember it was spelled like that specifically for the sake of alliteration, even though it'd still count as alliteration if it was spelled properly anyway.

i was an intern for the royal science division, papyrus was too but he wasn't all that serious about it. i was friends with the head of it, undyne.

she was real big into gundam anime and tried making those mechs a reality. i helped her with that so i have some experience in robotics and mechanical engineering.

she was able to build at least one functional robot, their name was blookbot. they were the underground's biggest music artist. i was a pretty big fan of their music

i went to college and got a degree in psychology. i was supposed to go to medical school, but, i either failed my classes or didn't make it in i think. or maybe i couldn't afford it.

there were a few humans that lived underground, under queen toriel's care. she had a polices about not killing humans which some monsters didn't agree with, including her own (now ex) husband who thought she was prioritizing humans above her own people. technically she was prioritizing humans, in a way, since we kinda need their souls to break the barrier—but hey all those humans fell down as kids im not gonna blame her for deciding against killing. and those humans specifically weren't to blame for us being trapped underground, it was unfair to fault them for it.

there was a group of monsters that did take action against these policies. the rebels, they called themselves. it was a straightforward name. they managed to kill some of the humans that's fallen down, specifically the ones that decided to leave the safety of queen toriel in favor of finding a way out.

while the amount of monsters that were apart of the rebels was pretty low, there's always been a threat of a civil war over the queen's policies. the main thing preventing it was that everyone was very much aware that a civil war could spell the end of monsterkind. so the monsters that disagreed with her policies kinda just, went deeper into the underground and were left to their own devices.

temmie was my friend. i thought. they were...a peculiar being. not quite human or monster, they were a sentient plush toy. they were very vocal about thinking queen toriel was dumb for not just killing every human that fell underground and that if she did, we'd have enough souls to break the barrier by now. but to my knowledge the rebels only have two souls in their possession and there's five that live with queen toriel. we'd be missing one

hah! i remembered all that! fuck you, multiverse!

hopefully this information is accurate. god

entry number 9

MY NAME IS NOT BLUE. ITS SANS HOW THE HELL DID I FORGET THAT???

Ever since my universe was destroyed Ink's been calling me "blue" like that's been my name my whole life and i ended up forgetting that it's NOT!

GASLIGHTING! ME!

Only reason i remembered was because someone called me sans while we went out to a different universe to eat.OH YEAH SPEAKING OF THIS UNIVERSE

It's SIMILAR to mine, not quite the same but it feels much more familiar than the other ones have so far

they're called "Underswap" universes, because some people "swap" roles and personalities with someone else.

Ink calls my universe "Botchedswap". not that flattering of a name but i suppose it makes sense now that ive seen underswap

so like. is my universe just a "botched" version of that universe?? or variant, that's what ink calls them

variants are universes that derive similar traits to the "main" universe they're based off of. so like, botchedswap is an underswap variant since it's based on it. BUT WHO IS BASING IT ON UNDERSWAP? WHAT EXACTLY DOES THAT MEAN? IS SOMEONE WRITING THIS? IT'S A STORY. THATS WHAT INK TOLD ME

i haven't really thought about how this is all a story after ink told me. i've kinda been avoiding it. it's like my mind automatically yanking my hand away from the stove, it's hard to think about it

i guess im sorta not supposed to know about that?? i mean. this is like some horrors beyond my comprehension probably. definitely, what the fuck do i mean probably?

so if this IS a story. i'm a character in it then? I'm probably a background character aren't i? i probably hardly even show up. who's the main character? would it be ink? oh then i probably wouldn't be a background character at that point.

That's so weeeird. If i was a main character that'd mean a lot of people saw my every move! Horrible! Or i guess not, why should i care what the hypothetical audience thinks about me?

Geez, there is an audience, isn't there? Unless this story's private or something.

I'm writing something down right now and im in a story. That's pretty weird. What if I wrote a story then? That's a story in a story, would that make that story more fictional than me?

wow im a fictional character.

The dread's not really hitting. Is that because i'm unable to or because i actually don't care that much? Is the writer of the story controlling my every move. What does this say about my capacity for free will. What does this say about everyone who isn't "on-screen"?

WELL. GOING OFF THE IDEA THAT I AM NOT A MAIN CHARACTER. THAT MEANS IM NOT BEING WRITTEN ABOUT THEN. WHICH MEANS THE WORLD DOES CONTINUE ON EVEN WHEN THEY AREN'T IN THE STORY.

OK MAYBE THE DREAD IS HITTING. IS THE AUDIENCE LOOKING AT ME RIGHT NOW? CUT THAT OUT!

WOWZERS, I AM A FICTIONAL CHARACTER. ok what do i do with this information. this is weird. im not supposed to know this right? well, ink told me so i guess it's allowed???

quick write something to show i have free will. uhhh what was that saying. from uhhh that one human. rene descartes?? is that how you spell his name. there's an accent on there somewhere

cogito, ergo sum

yeaaahhh yeah. i leaned that phrase from my philosophy class. i dont fucking remember what that means, go me

entry number 10

Wowzers, it's been a second since i opened this thing up! Welp, I'm in a much better spot now. Kinda embarrassing reading back on these entries now.

These are pretty personal too. I don't really wanna continue writing entries like this, I was never big on diaries cus I hate reading back on them.

So I ripped these pages out! I can't just waste the rest of this journal, the paper's pretty good quality. plus it's a gift from ink technically

But I can't just toss these pages out so I'm putting them in my bedside drawer. I'll probably forget I did that so this is sorta like a time capsule, I suppose.

So if i have rediscovered these pages, Hi! Hello! Future, hopefully-even-more-well-adjusted-me! Probably shouldn't destroy these pages because they have important memories written down in them! Push past the cringe of seeing me in agony! Or rewrite some of the key stuff, i dunno.

If you are not Blue, Sans-from-Botchedswap The Skeleton,

FUCK OFFF!!!! BARK BARK BARK BARK!! STOP READING THISSSS IT'S EMBARRASSING COME OOON. or hi ink, i told you NOT TO SNOOP IN MY ROOM!!!

On the off-chance you are not from my plane of existence, uhhh I guess i can't stop you? And i guess i shouldn't care since i won't see your reaction nor can you tell anyone about this so. whatever. go at it, voyeur.

not the right word to use sorry. yeah no. wrong word. not what it means.

See this is why it sucks knowing there's an audience what if i say weird shit!?!? Ughhhh. probably shouldn't care about it, but alas, my feeble soul, i am sensitive that even the possibility of the hypothetical audience thinking im weird hurts me so

#long post#I feel like 'i dont do small talk nobody cares about the weather' had a negative impact on social interaction#I mean yeah sometimes small talk about nothing gets awkward. but often it leads to the most interesting conversations#just asking 'what kind of music do you listen to at the gym' or 'have you read any books lately' could be such a lovely subject#I'm sometimes socially awkward despite being a huge extrovert. that's why etiquette is such a great thing#if you don't know how to act around people just stick to the etiquette rules. if they have a problem with it they're not for me anyways

Sorry @darlingdear but I couldn't let this stay in the tags.

I say this as someone who is neurodivergent had grew up very socially awkward, but recently I find the "screw small talk, I wanna get to know the REAL you" attitude to be pretentious as well as a demonstration of a lack of boundaries.

But also, I think a lot of people who have this attitude don't actually really know what does qualify as small talk. The definition of small talk is any topic that's of no real consequence and includes topics like food, pets, sports, music, whatever show you're currently streaming, whatever book you're currently reading, and yes, the weather. A lot of people who have this "I hate small talk / I don't do small talk" attitude probably think it's only reciting a bunch of secret scripts about the weather, and don't realize how much they engage in small talk whenever they talk about their pets or their favorite foods or the really cool show they're watching right now.

Small talk is just about boundaries and getting to know someone *before* you move into more serious and personal topics. The older I get the more I learn you really can't just trust anyone with more serious and personal subjects. Small talk first is important to gauge if they're someone safe and trustworthy first before moving into more serious and personal subjects. If you really genuinely refuse to get to know someone before immediately discussing serious and personal subjects you may have an issue with boundaries and should consider working on that.

I feel like in the rush of “throw out etiquette who cares what fork you use or who gets introduced first” we actually lost a lot of social scripts that the younger generations are floundering without.

[nyxi-pixie]

HIIIII I was wondering if you had any ideas on what music would bsd characters listen to?? all i see is people saying dazai is a msi listener HE IS NOT it makes me wanna rip my nails off

PLEASE. msi mention in the big '25 this is a horrendous world we live in. now i honestly dont have specific answers but i willlll gavel to wood judge their general vibe. i had entirely too much fun with this started doing everyone😭

for chuuya its canon he likes rock, so his tastes probably close to stuff like granrodeo. reckon the sheep were into some really cringe fake edgy stuff tho and chuuya thinks hes really cool for listening to it. when he went to beat people up for them, shirase would be behind him somewhere so chuuya could say something embarrassing like 'hit it! i need something to get my blood rushing🥶🥶🥶' and shirase would play dogshit out of a busted speaker. hashtag my cringe fav!

dazai obviously listens to jokey stuff to be disturbing (suicide song). i do think the stuff he listens to to be annoying he does genuinely enjoy though, such is often the nature of dazais lies. for the most part i dont actually think hes very picky about it. listens to anything if its on, will judge other peoples taste despite not really having his own😭 i can imagine a slight preference for instrumental when alone if only bc mori seems like a classical music guy and i imagine that rubbed off a bit. also real to me that he intentionally got into various bands chuuya was into and did a lot of 'i actually like this more than you. youre a fake fan bc you dont know the bass guitarist pissed himself during the recording of this track and they kept it in' and such like when they were teens just for the purposes of pissing him off.

for the rest of them. the akutagawas are into old school goth music that sounds kind of silly unless youre also into it, like some real 'she liiikes the darkkkk' type shit😭 atsushi has the worlds most extensive taste ever. comes out of that fuckass orphanage having heard like 3 songs in his life and has zero taste. thinks every song is the best song hes heard. higuchi listens to the most pop pop to ever pop and then just a lot of breakup songs that she imagines dramatic scenarios to. sat in her car looking out the rainy window and everything. kyouka probably says something like 'the only music ive heard is the screams of the 35 people who i was forced to murder' and you go okay kyouka would you like to listen to this silly pop song. look heres the band wearing bunny costumes. and she becomes their no.1 fan <3 yosano exclusively listens to female artists, says she cant listen to male singers bc their voices annoy her (hashtag my favourite misandrist) she prefers stuff with a little edge but can get down to some real basic girl shit for messy club going. in another life shes in the trenches defending her favs on twitter, doxxing people about it and all. tachihara is obsessed with saying hes 'discovered' an artist and keeps trying to get the black lizard on to some shitty soundcloud shit where 90% of the song is just a repeating producer tag. hirotsu insists the only music he listens to is live music in a smoky bar, but is in fact secretly hooked on one of higuchi's sadgirl breakup songs. kunikida googles 'music to better my health' and listens to the first thing that comes up. fukuzawa says he listens to classical to focus on his work and sometimes he does but usually hes got earphones in and hes listening to a cat choir.

[lily-claw]

lmao you telling me you are not going to read all of that and keep changing your reblog every minute😭😭 I would love to guess why but then, I would actually get rude🤡🤡

I dont care if you forgive me or not, i apologized bc i thought i hurt your feelings since you took my post too personally. I tried to explain things and also asked you how did you read the post to understand you more but you still arent actually explain anything and keep saying i am disrespectful🤔 how?

I am actually asking how i am disrespectful and you are just bragging about it without making me understand anything. If you still wont explain anything at all, wont even try to at least say sorry for the other shippers that you think they dont respect you which is sus and also acceptable if you act with everyone like that, then dont try to gain any of people's respect. I am already telling i will take the tag out of there if any izuocha shippers give me an actual reason and unlike you, i know how to apologize. I even asked a friend of mine that ships izuocha more than me so i can act more rational.

This isnt a pissing contest, it is not about who is more disrespectful or not. Im already asking what did i do that was so rude to understand better so i don think that i acted like a victim. If you will be disrespectful, then you gotta apologize or just dont even try to interact bud bc you really dont act like you know how to reply or read more than a few words. If you are going to reply this like the prev ones, im sorry but i wont try to understand you anymore because you dont help me to understand it.

The fact that noguchi cencored this bc he thought its sensitive... Guys, I think he is trying to cope while being known as Horikoshi's assistant.

It looks like that meme where deku asks "does your gf has to be here?" and uraraka responds as "does yours?" lmao I can't take this seriously...

[chaifootsteps]

I remember when NaruSaku v SasuSaku was the most toxic ship discourse around, it all seems so tame now compared to the unhinged shit shippers do today. I get not liking a ship for whatever reasons but haven't these people even considered, you know, avoiding it? Its a lot easier to avoid ships you dont like today than it was in late 2000s/early 2010s

For real! We have all these options to filter and blacklist tags, options we never even dreamed of back in the day when the only thing informing you of what was in a fic was good fandom etiquette. Nowadays, it's not enough for it to be tagged -- it's become a case of, "How dare something I not like exist at all, and also I will send this person death and doxxing threats and I see nothing wrong with that."

Portrait of a vampire

Photo of a werewolf (who doesn't trust cameras)

As a treat I like to paint my characters realistically from time to time... so I can see them...

Webcomic

[daisybell-on-a-carousel]

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest

Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here

Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭

It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony

[unculturedswine69]

oops! left this one for quite a while... i totally forgot about it AND I WAS ALSO TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO ANSWER...lets try it out..also thank you for tagging me! :333

im gonna be using my regular sona Sheetz just to make it easier cuz i have way too many ocs to pick from..!

1: What is your character/sona’s personality like?

uhhm...VERY uhh like, confident and exaggerated, very silly most of the time (thats their outer personality atleast), but when theyre not around others they tend to just be the opposite. like super chill quiet and serious. its heavily inspired by how i am but idrk how to describe myself LMAO uhmm also since i made myself a king theres alot of ego too, and also like ...flamboyancy ...??? idk how to word things. tldr. silly and then i serious

2: How much taller or shorter do you think they (your character) would be compared to you irl?

uhmm since its literally me im just gonna say hes like...5'2 or 5'3, but since he wears heels /boots etc. id say he becomes like. 5'6 (or taller. idk)

3: Do they canonically have a favorite song?

NO BUT I MEAN. thats such a tough question...itd be easy to just be like "well heres all MY faves wahahaha" but. idk if any of that stuff would fit with my sonas image tbh LMAO uhhh i honestly love classical so itd probably be something relating to that ...i love the harpsichord, but idk many songs with that being like. the main instrument ... (clueless)

i have no better images rn (sob) ANYWAYS! i honestly dont know who to tag for this but if anyone wanted to try it out please feel free :33

Starting my first tag chain i guess…

Questions:

1: What is your character/sona’s personality like?

2: How much taller or shorter do you think they (your character) would be compared to you irl?

3: Do they canonically have a favorite song?

Me personally, I’m choosing my character Yomo for all three of these…

My answer:

Yomo is a very mysterious individual, he doesn’t show much emotion on his face and holds little empathy for other individuals. He knows Yoru has an attraction to him and is unwilling to reciprocate any romantical feelings. (If he even has any.) At the same time, Yomo harbors a hidden hatred toward Chimera for unknown reasons…

Yomo would definitely be taller than me as he is around 7ft7... (Yoru is around 6ft4. still taller than me.)

Yomo’s song choices would likely be limited as he’s not the type to listen to music. But his most favorite would likely be Empty Walls by Serj Tankian…

YES OKAY i am just going to chronologically answer these questions because yeah im sure theres more but i forget a lot of things as i go

so if a pitcher hits the batter, the batter gets to go to first base assuming he isnt horribly injured by getting an 80 mile an hour ball to the head. they do have to dodge, it is frowned upon to lean into it because bad sportsmanship i suppose

when an outfielder catches the ball, assuming it has not touched the ground, the other guy is out and that is in fact why everyone celebrates ^_^ but if the ball bounces he has to throw it to a base and typically they'll get the runner thats first in line so that he doesnt score.

little tidbit. if a runner crosses home plate but the third out is made. because theres only 3 outs in a half an inning. thats another can of worms i forgot. so dude crosses home but the third out is made BEFORE the dude reaches first, no run! no score there.

thennn for like how many batters get faced, in a perfect world nobody gets on base, it would be 3 strikes per 3 batters so 9 pitches, 3 outs. but obviously guys get hits and get on base and your starting pitcher (the first guy to pitch for your team) might throw about 100 pitches before they go to the bullpen (the cage where they keep all the other pitchers) and go through some relievers before having a closer do the final inning. but sometimes (rarely) a starting pitcher does well and he'll pitch a complete game which is 27 outs. but. yeah. baseball is not perfect and because guys get on base and score, you dont really know how many batters there will be, at least three.

a pop fly basically means that the ball went straight up, didn't go very far out, just straight up in the air.

bunting usually happens because theres no outs and theyve got a guy on base that they want to move, so they just. sacrifice a dude. so the other guy can move up.

the time limit one. for the longest time. no there was no timer and games were like 3-4 hours and most of that time was really boring. so now pitchers get. twenty seconds to throw a pitch and theres a penalty if they dont (i dont remember what that is, its a newer rule in recent years) but. the games end when they end, each inning can take as long as it needs

the pick off attempts also used to not be limited but yeah. 3 hour games no fun so now they're limited to 2 attempts per guy. so say theres a dude on first, he gets his two attempts, then the guy that was batting gets on, 2 new attempts for that guy

the pitcher can totally catch the ball if the batter hits its back but typically its super dangerous because of exit velocity and as long as it didnt hit the ground first, its an out. if it hits the ground, then you gotta throw the ball to first to get the runner out. speaking of the ball, it can hit the ground but once it does, when its caught the ball needs to be thrown to a base so the runner can be tagged, or in the case of first base, you get the force out by stepping on the base. and a force out is an out that you get by not tagging the guy.

another side tangent. anytime youre running to first, the defense can step on the bag (base) and get the out. if theres not a runner behind you, if youre going to 2nd you have to be tagged. but if there is a runner behind you. like a dude hits the ball with a dude on first so theyre both running, you can just step on 2nd base for the out and throw it to first for another out. double play :3

the ball can only really get stuck out of play so it will usually be a foul, but in rare cases its gotten stuck in shirts and catchers gear before and im pretty sure thats a dead ball and nothing happens. its rare so idrk

RBI stands for runs batted in and its basically if you hit the ball and somebody scores, could be a home run, could just be a base hit and someone else scores, thats a run batted in, RBI.

the AL and NL used to have different rules. slightly. like in the NL pitchers used to hit in the lineup but now everyone has a designated hitter which is just a guy that hits in place of the pitcher so pitchers dont get hurt hitting or running bases. its also just makes dividing stuff for playoffs easier. and for the olympics. uh. you could have MLB players but not likely because the summer olympics happen in the middle of their season.

theres a whole other thing called the world baseball classic (WBC) and it happens pre-season and more guys will go play for their home countries. its like the olympics but just for baseball. youd think with the whole culture and MLB thing, the US would win morw, but Japan has won the most because they pump out crazy good players.

My favorite position is third base :3 they're just silly and some of my favs played third. My current favorite is a hard one, I'd probably say Johnathon Cannon from the White Sox, mostly because favorite team but also because i was at the game he got his first major league win ^_^

Yeah! so 20 years since they last won it all, a couple teams have. never won. but the team that won the world series last year was the Dodgers, which boooo because they like. pay to win. they have money so they can afford to pay the good players so theyre kinda stacked. fun fact! last season the White Sox achieved the worst record in baseball history! they lost the most games ever! they were the worst team ever! that was exhilarating.

but yes yes that is to answer those questions and i will so happily answer more, like i said i probably forgot to mention things and whatnot

I need someone who's obsessed with baseball to explain baseball to me. I NEED someone to infodump baseball 101 to me right now. I just watched a few clips of games and I thought 'oh hey this is actually really cool' but I just don't know wtf is happening :/ i NEED to know

How does a team win? How many members in each team? What are the positions? What are their roles? What's the coolest/ your favorite position? What's your favorite team?
