A shifting of the rubble on the street up ahead broke Gigantomachia out of his musing, and he tensed, readying to face an enemy. There was a strange pattering, like that of little feet, as he drew closer, and Machia raised his fists, squaring his shoulders as—

A small child walked into view.

He stared in confusion for a long moment, his stance briefly relaxing. But when the child—maybe around four years old or so—looked up at him, Machia’s entire body went rigid once more.

He knew those blank eyes. That soulless stare.

Even on a face much younger than Machia had ever seen it, All For One’s visage was unmistakable.

Gift fic for @kstbj (that you’ve already seen but now it’s on AO3 🙈) Happy holidays! You deserve it and much more 🙌❤️

SHAL YOU NO LIKE ROBBIE?!

TBH, I don't care as much about the writers. (I know--eternal shame. I'm not even a real fan--kill me now etc.) I just...don't remember things. I always have to remind myself who's doing what. I don't know how half of you keep it all straight AND remember episode titles??? And no, nooooo I like Robbie just fine. Love him, even. He’s in my top choices!!!!

I just consider him something of a specialist, maybe? I'm going off vibes, remember. I feel like Robbie is a long-winded, loveable teddy bear. His writing reminds me of comic books, which could be why it feels so fraught and verbose at times, like it's crammed into a speech bubble...? Idk.

I think a lot of his characters are also a bit...it's hard to put my finger on it, exactly. Wholesome? They're so Loveable (TM) and Dorky (TM). I find it stifling sometimes to stomach all the "pluckiness" at once. It even took me awhile to warm up to his characters in The Winchesters. (Don't hit me! Maybe I just have a bad personality.)

I think you'd want him on your team for sure. He did Goodbye Stranger and other wonderful things like Metatron's speech in Don't Call Me Shurley (which was also belabored at times but greatly helped by Curtis Armstrong)! It's a type of energy I find leaning "too meta," and "too mechanistic" at times. The best example I can think of is There's No Place Like Home. I like it in pieces, but as a whole, it seems a little too self-aware sometimes. But not in a fun Ghostfacers way? It's hard to describe.

I...can't imagine Robbie creating an Alastair or a Uriel, or even a Meg...but maybe I'm forgetting something.

////

Maybe it's Ben Edlund's intellectual(TM) vibe that makes his Sam and Cas more to my liking? Idk. I feel like, since Sam's the only one still alive, getting Sam right would be key to the whole thing hanging together in a sequel. Anyway, I feel like his work in Reading is Fundamental is legitimately Ecclesiastical because he can be more wry/philosophical/satirical. I'm biased--I like philosophy!

He can do entire standalone narrations which are just as “long” but it doesn’t feel so…templated, somehow? It usually just hits better for me, personally. Sometimes he lurches into being too poetic for my liking, too, especially in season 8. But overall, I dig. Meredith can infuse his stuff with some much-needed warmth. It all makes sense in my head!

I think he's at his best when he's being sarcastic and when the action is so fast-paced he doesn't have much time to get stuck doing word-acrobatics. His good guys are conflicted, and his bad guys are really oily. He lets the characters be mean and surly. He can be as deeply fucked up as Sera Gamble when he wants to be (Repo Man????)

////

I can find something I like in most of the writers, even Bucklemming. They have some great devil's advocate lines and political stuff in their scripts, once you comb past the racism, fetishism, and weird pacing.

////

I'm not above keeping Sera Gamble in a cage and letting her out to contribute random, unhinged things. Something is deeply, deeply wrong with her, and that translates well to a good dose of fucky-uppy-ness and incredible pain, which I think Robbie can tend to sleep on a little bit. (Dream a Little Dream of Me, Houses of the Holy?? SO GOOD.)

////

Others? Bobo does some great stuff, but sometimes I find his back-and-forth dialogue to be a little off? I even think something felt off with Cas's speech in Despair as much as I applaud the effort. Steve Yockey does an excellent Rowena.

Also, I'd let Amanda Tapping direct everything. Just because.

////

Mostly, I think they should just hire @angelsdean 🤷  and @jewishtrentcrimm -- I followed them during their live tweeting reactions of The Winchesters and mostly longed for their ideas over what was happening on screen.

////

Most importantly, it’d need a shortform writer in the wings whose job it is to take all the long-winded ppl's excellent monstrosities and chop it to bits and couch it in the right voice with the right amount of prickly subterfuge and defensiveness. A vicious, short-form editor who values brevity and would kill me inside...

Also, we’d need an official meta wrangler, because the meta can start to eat itself and really devolve if you're not careful (I think this is Robbie's Achilles' Heel in some of his stuff; it walks the line reeeeeally close for me in "There's No Place Like Home," for example, but I've come around to "Fan Fiction.")

////

I am...quite happy to be corrected. Knowing who does what well is NOT my specialty.

[delta-romance0]

i’m reallly annoyed/upset bc like my hairs lowkey bad rn in the it needs washing and conditioning way

uhh very long big rant under the cut (tw hair pulling just to be safe :])

like it’s in a bun rn and I hate having buns bc I hate how it looks on me which ultimately leads to me pulling at it often. not to like a chunk extent but to a it’s so often it’s damaging my hair extent right.

And like I love having twists in my hair but my hairs a lot thinner and shorter at the front for multiple reasons (rubs on everything, headscarf comes off when I sleep etc etc) so I worry that next time it’s done like that it’ll look shorter than the rest but like I like having my hair down and I don’t know any other protective hairstyles and the problem is I need two parts in my face or else I won’t be happy because I play with them a lot it’s just how I roll yk

I mainly pull at it when it feels uncomfortable to me like if there’s too much gel or it’s dirty or it’s in a style that’s not working with me and not making me feel happy. Or if I like uncomfortable or I just do it subconsciously while i’m doing stuff and pay no mind to it. Nobody knows I do it and I feel bad for saying that I do but I also don’t wanna get in trouble and idk

I like my hair it’s just stressful to deal with because I literally can’t do it on my own so i’m kinda stuck with it until my mom has time to do it and ahhh
