Oddly Nostalgic

I got a notification one of my blogs turned 7 yo today.

I haven't been on here in months but it got me reminiscing a little.

About how I'd eagerly await those reblog/like notifications.

About how I'd squee when I got a message notif.

I remember when I lived/breathed TWD and SW. Those fandoms injected a spark that made life so much more interesting.

I remember writing fics. Getting recs. BEING recd.

I remember chatting people overseas until legit 2 am my time on a worknight.

I'm not really involved in any fandom right now. My online fandom friends have drifted away. People I used to talk to multiple times a day have just...disappeared.

I get sad because I remember how it used to be. So fun. I remember thinking how boring my life was before I got so involved in my fandoms. Now that I'm not in them anymore it makes me sad because my life is once again dull.

I wish I could get excited over things again but I just can't.

I scrolled through my feed and saw some old "faces" and smiled remembering. I guess I should be grateful I had that time at all.

I packed away all my fandom merch and will probably sell/give it away. I spent so much money on that stuff, lol.

Anyway, just musing today.

#I miss being in a fandom #being active and excited #involved #having online friends that were so real and you cared about them #I even miss the occasional wacky fandom drama #TWD started it all #caryl #I was so in love with Daryl Dixon at one point it's cringe now #and then my love of Star Wars was reignited with TFA #Kylux #and then came Thrawn #now I just don't care

✨ two sides of the same coin ✨

Redraw of one of the first Merlin arts I posted here wayyyy back in 2012. The boys got a glow up.

#bbc merlin #merthur #merthur fanart #bbc merlin art #merlin fanart #merthur art #merlin art #hellooooooo merlin fandom I missed you #feeling a lil hesitant about reposting that old art but I know I love to see other artists’ growth so I’m being brave and doing it anyway!#before someone says something about arthur’s ring I KNOW it’s on the wrong hand it was an artistic choice ok #my art

favorite book quotes :

“It feels like such a luxury, sleeping with Peeta again. I didn’t realize until now how starved I’ve been for human closeness. For the feel of him beside me in the darkness. I wish I hadn’t wasted the last couple of nights shutting him out. I sink down into sleep, enveloped in his warmth, and when I open my eyes again, daylight’s streaming through the windows.”

- catching fire (2009) by suzanne collins

#everlark #thg #hunger games #Katniss everdeen #peeta mellark #fbq #myphotoart #this is a quote in my 4 years in this fandom I’ve never seen appreciated and maybe it’s because of her talking of being starved for human #connection that makes most feel like it’s a little impersonal like she’s thinking it could be anyone in her bed with her #but if you recognize : the very next sentence is basically her amending that thought right away #like ‘I’ve missed having someone with me at night…. no actually I’ve missed having Peeta with me at night’#like she’s saying I’ve missed this no wait actually I’ve missed HIM #for the feel of him beside me in the darkness #not just somebody beside her but him!#also her stating that she feels Peeta all night beside her even when she’s sleeping is also sweet he really is her safe haven #i digress now

Is there a canon reason why people think Kabru sleeps around? Like it’s a very wildly agreed upon headcanon - at least, that he has the reputation for it - like in fanfiction/art that I’ve seen

#I was wondering if there was some comic or something I just hadn’t seen that made everyone think this #personally I believe that Kabru simply deserves the attention #he also can come off as flirty in canon maybe so I suppose there’s that #also the comic of his mom visiting him and him going through the list of women he knows #but is it just that ? or is there more I’m missing #dungeonmeshi #dm #dungeon meshi #kabru of utaya #kabru dungeon meshi #kabru #kabru dunmeshi #dunmeshi #there’s also so many good Kabru ships so I also see it with that in mind #delicious in dungeon #there’s also something about people making men with dark skin into being like that in fanon so I’ve also tried to be mindful of that #I’ve seen in happen in many fandoms even if I don’t think it’s necessarily what’s happening here #maybe that’s why I’m asking though #dragodoodlez talks

I simply think this fandom doesn't give Wei Wuxian enough credit for the various ways in which he saved Lan Wangji

#mdzs #mo dao zu shi #wangxian #idk man- i just see a lot of “Lan Wangji has always been protecting Wei Wuxian” posts and its like...#I mean... Lan Wangji has always certainly been trying to protect Wei Wuxian #it took him a long time to figure how to successfully do that though #rereading the books rn and noticing theres a lot of instances that could be read as lwj being frustrated over his inability to protect wwx #like he seemed ready to cry when wwx went missing for a while and then came back with the cursed leg #lwj has always been great at protecting wwx from physical threats (ex: waterborn abyss) but had no idea how to protect him from himself #meanwhile wwx has always been instictually good at saving lwj from both #like I'm 100% lwj would've become like Jiang Cheng if wwx hadn't snapped him out of the blindly following authority thing #and also like... 15 y/o lwj wasnt happy with his life. he was lonely and stressed and literally signing up to be flogged whenever he goofed #wwx is who allowed lwj to grow up by showing him what it was like to actually be a kid (shown in story whenever lwj gets drunk)#he led lwj to having a more flexible mindset. and it both let lwj relax and set lwj up to be a better parent #looking into lwj's dynamic with the juniors- he lets them break a fuck ton of the petty rules and encourages them to question authority #he also teaches them to not be married to any one meathod of problem solving #wwx is also able to save lwj from his own stubbornness #ex: carrying lwj when he broke his leg. getting lwj to cough up bad blood. getting lwj to keep the rabbits #wwx also tends to give lwj the words he has trouble saying himself. helps him communicate #wwx also protects lwj in fights a lot but thats narratively less important #except the various times wwx puts himself in danger to help lwj. those times are what made it so lwj could never move on from wwx #like with the cave incident #or when wwx helped surpress the arm instead of using the chaos to escape cloud recesses #tldr i guess: i think this fandom tends to treat lwj being the best like its natural to him when really wwx accidentaly rewired his brain #I'm looking directly at fanfic writers who act like the Lans would've treated wwx better than the Jiangs #lwj had to do so much work and self reflection post meeting wwx to be the way he is. he is not the sole product of the Lan teachings

I think more people should go back and either replay or rewatch (.... or forbid, play or watch them for the first time) aa1, even if it's literally only case 1

fanon phoenix is so completely disconnected from the actual character that at this point they basically share a wacky hairstyle and a name to me. In the actual games, Phoenix is almost always depicted as the "straight man", even in comparison to Edgeworth: he's somber, dry, sarcastic, and often very tired of shenanigans and bullshit. He's a very ordinary "everyman", and that's like 80% of his appeal to me, tbh. It's not to say that he can't be silly or nonserious, but we have a unique look at the inside of his head and all the things he COULD say, but most likely does not.

He goes on to become a literal world renowned defense attorney, and so many people want to boil him down to a silly stupid little rabbit of a guy when he's anything but

#yes this is about the polls #I guess this particularly irks me because before I replayed the games for the first time in a decade+#I'd fallen for a bit of fanon phoenix as well #and it really surprised me to revisit ace attorney as a fully grown adult (instead of being barely an adult)#and to see how somber and reserved phoenix really is #it's not even strictly a trilogy thing either he acts the same in aa4 #if anything his “worst” qualities are amplified and he very frequently goes mask off about being pessimistic and balefully sarcastic #I guess to sum it up #phoenix is an interesting character and it makes me sad to see him reduced to a gag bit that's basically used to prop up other characters #obviously I fully support people playing with interpretations #what is fandom if not to play pretend with our dollies #but I feel like they're really missing out by not paying attention to what actually IS there

Enstars sure is an experience. Did I miss anything?

#are you guys all okay? i definitely am not okay #this is not the type of media that i usually go for yet it is EXACTLY the type of media that i would like #so many gaps so many stories WAY TOO MUCH READING I DONT HAVE THE TIME #i know i missed a lot because ive only watched the anime and read the main music story up to ch 4 of the second part #and i have read some events stories that were free #and maybe one or two outside from translations #but like thats it #this is like reading orv and getting hit with its deep metas on human life and the importance of stories #but instead im being clobbered by the most deranged storylines known to man (and again. i read ORV and am a bsd fan)#this isnt fantasy but there is nothing realistic about enstars and i unfortunately am attached #every day i spiral into east asian media that gives me an aneurysm #bsd -> orv -> link click -> enstars....i wanna say they keep getting more unhinged but theyre all unhinged in different ways #anyway please help me....#enstars #ensemble stars #fandom spamdom #stuff i say #i will admit i am mostly into the game for the stories #a consistent gamer i am not #but to unlock the stories ill push back the animes i have to catch up on etc etc #again. please help me....#edit: updated to remove queerbaiting because apparently i dont know whats going on
