The Dubsism 15 Most Important Sports Stories of 2023

As we enter a new year, once more we find ourselves having just completed what has proven to be a tumultuous twelve months.  Unfortunately like 2022, this past year had more “downs” than “ups.” But the difference is this year, the “downs” aren’t nearly as ominous (for the most part), and the “ups” offer far more hope. Having said that, here’s the 15 stories we here at Dubsism feel define the…

there'll be space for you always in my harmony

Buggy finds out you have a hidden talent. Rating: PG. It's a little fluffy. Warning: None for once. Pining, music, it's a soft fic. A good friend plays the mandolin but I couldn't tell you anything about that instrument so I just had to think of what I've seen her do when she plays. A/N: I had fun writing this. It's borderline a song fic without being a song fic. I wanted a chance to include some of my favorite musicians into this because they are both fantastic musicians. There are 3 songs used in this story, and in order they are "Sailor's Advice" by Alexander James Adams, "The Bow's Turned Back" by Alexander James Adams , and "To My Valentine" by S. J. Tucker, of which the title of this story comes from as well. I wrote it from an Anon's request and hope you like it!

You appreciated the moments when the tent was empty of the crew, the audience, and even the Captain. It was overwhelming at times, sometimes getting to be a bit too much for you when there was so much noise and lights flashing that it was almost hard to concentrate. You were more of a behind the scenes member of the crew, not wanting to be out in the spotlight entertaining people. You were happy to help fix props and costumes than wear them or use them for the crowds.

However, being in the empty tent as night fell was your favorite time. You sat on one of the benches, smiling brightly as you unlocked the case that held one of your few treasures. You didn’t bring it out as often as you would like, not wanting others to see you with it in case they tried to pressure you to use it in front of them. 

Carefully, you pulled the mandolin from its case, admiring the 8 stringed instrument before slinging the strap over your shoulder and strumming a few chords. It just needed a tiny bit of tuning, which was easy enough. You hummed softly, making sure the chords matched the pitch of your voice as you twisted the tuners carefully. It took a few minutes before it was perfect.

Occasionally you’d look up, looking for the shadows of any approaching performer or crew. This was something you wanted to keep secret as long as possible, but you didn’t want to have to hide the mandolin away for very long. It needed to be out, to breathe, and to be played, even if it was just for you. 

You racked your brain for a tune to play. Something fun, easy, with words you didn’t have to think too hard about. When something popped in your head, you grinned and started playing the tune before singing the lyrics softly.

“Many’s the port and many’s the town Many’s a soft place to lay your head down-”

“Hey!”

You froze when you heard your Captain approaching. There was no time to put the instrument away so you sat there, holding it tightly in your hand as your hand froze over the strings. Maybe he wouldn’t realize you were actually playing if you didn’t move.

“Captain?” You replied carefully. “What can I do for you?”

He stood in front of you, arms crossed as he looked from the instrument to your face. He frowned. “Since when can you play?”

Okay, he wasn’t easily fooled. Your shoulders dropped a bit as you started to put it away. “Sorry if I was loud, Captain. I’ll put it away.”

“I didn’t tell you to do that.” He retorted. “I asked how long you’ve been playing for. Why are you holding out on me like that?”

You hesitated as you looked up at him. “I don’t… like playing in front of people. It’s more of a personal hobby than anything, Captain.”

“So?” Buggy plopped himself beside you, looking over the instrument carefully, keeping his hands to himself for now. “Keep playing. I want to hear it, so play for me.”

“B-But-”

“I’m not people, I’m just one person.” He said. “Captain’s orders, keep playing.”

You nodded and started the song up again; Buggy was watching you as you played, but suddenly gestured at you. Aw damn, did he want you to sing too? You hesitated but listened to his silent request. You didn’t want to get reprimanded for denying the Captain’s orders. 

“But finding the right one’s a hard thing to do Chart your course as you may, but you might not pull through-”

Occasionally you’d glance over at him as you sang and played. He wasn’t looking at you as he listened, his head nodding along to the music while tapping his foot to the beat. It was nice seeing the Captain so… relaxed. You were used to seeing an intense, passionate side of him during rehearsals and raids, when he wanted everything to go right. Whenever possible you’d try to give him an encouraging smile whenever he looked your way, but you were certain it didn’t register to him as anything other than friendly.

Honestly you kind of hated yourself for falling in love with your Captain. You had tried to kid yourself that it was a crush, nothing more, but it never went away over the last two years of working for him. And if anyone asked why you felt that way, you wouldn’t know what to say. Then again, is it any of their business?

When you finished the song you reached for the case to put the instrument away but Buggy grabbed your arm. He didn’t say anything, squeezing your arm for a moment before pulling his hand away. You just nodded and started up another tune for him, playing the next one that came to mind.

“When the night turns lonely, I think of you only As I’m rocked on waves of the storm Your arms around me, your charms astound me You kiss is keeping me warm-”

He moved closer to you, your shoulders touching now as he listened. You were questioning why you chose this song. A song about going home to the one you love, the one you spent time away from as you sailed the seas. You used to wonder what that would be like, coming home after time away only to return to the warm arms of your beloved. As you got older, and since joining Buggy’s crew, you stopped wondering. You wanted to be in his arms, no one else's. 

“Keep a light burnin’ I am returnin’ I’ll be home by the three quarter moon- I’ll be in your arms very soon- With every tall wave that we breach I come that much closer to your loving reach-”

You stumbled just a bit over the words to the last verse and chorus, but Buggy didn’t seem to notice or care. You finished the song and looked at him, waiting to see if he wanted another round or if he was done. He was looking at you curiously before his gaze went to your mandolin. Carefully he reached out and touched the strings, letting his fingertips strum over them. The strings hummed, making a noise but no song. 

“Do you know any songs that aren’t about the sea?” He asked quietly. You nodded hastily. “Play one of them for me.”

“O-Okay, Captain.” You really didn’t know what else to do. You were sitting captive with him, indulging in his musical requests, even if they weren’t dirges or loud songs, he still wanted to hear you play. You cleared your throat as you started up the tune. “Um, I still… don’t want to play in front of crowds, Captain.”

“I won’t ask you to do that.” Buggy replied with a shrug as he watched your fingers pick at the chords. “Just play for me.”

Your heart sang and you turned red. You really hoped he didn’t notice that as you started up the lyrics, looking down at your feet as you played.

“from far away I'm coveting your white violet skin and missing the fall of your hair worlds away I'm courting your everything and giving you all that i dare”

He took his Captain’s hat off and removed his bandana; your eyes widened at the sight, missing a few chords as you watched his hair fall down his back and over his shoulders. What was happening? He closed his eyes as he listened, running his fingers through his hair to loosen it up from being bound up under the bandana all day. It was quite a sight to see and damn did you feel lucky to see him actually let his hair down around you.

Without warning he slumped over and rested his head against your shoulder, eyes closing as your fingers picked the chords. You hoped he didn’t hear the hitch in your voice when he let out a sigh, feeling him relax against you. What was happening? You wanted to turn your head to look at him, to see him so relaxed around you, but you didn’t want to disturb him. Maybe he didn’t want you to look, maybe he didn’t even realize what he was doing? Why did you of all people get to be around him right then in a vulnerable state?

“if wishing on stars ever falls out of fashion we'll move to the Pleiades with no backward glance maybe between worlds and blackness I'll get up the nerve to finally ask you to dance”

“You play really well.” Buggy murmured as he got comfortable against you. “I could get used to these private concerts.”

Your cheeks burned and you nodded, stumbling once more over the lyrics as you played for him.  Could you play for him, be at his beck and call when he wanted a tune? All you would ask was to never play in front of others, this was for yourself, but now for him. He was the Captain, though, and you had to obey his commands, so if he asked you to play for a crowd you’d have to listen to him.

“just to say i love you in well-hidden ways that's all any song says, each note when it's played this one's too honest, but you're smiling, i pray. i am wide open, only a little afraid.”

You leaned into him and he tilted his head a bit to look at you. Your face was burning and your palms were sweaty. The song was almost finished. Soon this moment would be over. He’d return to being Captain, you’d return to being just another member of the crew. If you mentioned this moment to anyone it would reveal your hidden talent and what the Captain had asked of you. 

The last of the lyrics were sung, you slowly stopped playing the chords, and you both sat there in silence for a few minutes. Buggy was the first to move, straightening up in his seat as you started to put the instrument away. Without a word, he leaned over to you, and as you turned to face him, you froze when your lips met your Captain’s. It was nice but not what you expected to happen, and when he pulled back you thought you were seeing the stars in his eyes by how they sparkled right then.

“Nothin’ to be afraid about.” He chuckled softly as he touched your cheek. You were glad you put the mandolin away because otherwise it would have slipped from your hands when he kissed you. “Thank you for the concert.”

“Y-You’re welcome.” You stammered out. “Just… just let me know when you want another one.”

“Tomorrow morning after breakfast would be nice.”

and these are only some, there’s so many more people :(

[most-hated-blorbo-bracket]

any chance of an updated list?

Of course!!

Also, this is the NEW and FUCKING IMPROVED LIST, I alphabetized it so it’s even better than before >:3

Currently, we have 340 unique characters (if I counted right) and 487 total submissions. The top three most submitted fandoms are Homestuck, Danganronpa, and One Piece, excluding submissions that were spelt wrong or spelt differently. The top three submitted characters are Haiji Towa, Vriska Serket, and Stella Goeta (stella has so many submissions it’s funny)!

Finally, this is the raw, unedited list of characters submitted so far. Just because they are here doesn’t mean they’ll be in the tournament; it just means they’ve been submitted, regardless of media or what character they are!

as always, list under the cut!

This first list is for characters with two or more submissions. Characters who have three or more submissions will get first dibs in the tournament!

Not sure if you saw this yet

Okay, it's about to get real. I don't know if I agree with this. James Franco, sure, Josh Hartnett? Not so much. 2003-2005 was definitely the CMM era. He was on OTH, he did Freaky Friday, he did Cinderella Story, he did House of Wax and was, like, trying to get into more "adult" roles. James Franco and CMM.

Considering that Gabrielle Union did Neo Ned in 2004, which was a RIDICULOUS movie about her falling in love with a neo nazi -- Jeremy Renner -- in a mental hospital and she thinks she's the reincarnation of Hitler, I could see her being in this or well saying yes to doing this but I feel like they would get Ashanti or something, they were trying to make Ashanti happen in movies in 2005/2006 - John Tucker Must Die, Coach Carter etc.

Although if we were going with the aesthetic of the movie now and not what it would've been in 2004 then it would be, like, Adam Brody and Milo Ventimiglia.
