Swordswoman showdown FINALS

Hornet (Hollow Knight) vs Xena (Xena: Warrior Princess)

(Better here in a "preferred character" sense, not "who would win in a fight")

Propaganda below cut

Hornet

Technically its not a sword but she wields a needle in a setting where swords do not exist and she wields it in an exceedingly swordlike fashion so. She counts; Girlboss demigoddess spider lady. She's been protecting an entire kingdom for longer than many of the other characters have been alive. She systematically kills her siblings for being too weak. She's simply the best.

#im pretty sure hornet can beat like. anyone in a fight.#have you ever fought hornet#its so fucking hard getting past her every time i play hk i go literally insane.

#i remember getting stuck on the first hornet fight on mt first play through and bring likr#''omg the boss fights in this are so hard!!!''#like what. you're not even half way through what are you talking about#you can't even DASH honey. you don't know what's diffcult or not in this game.

So, SPOILERS

but I feel like the "she systematically kills her siblings" part needs a little clarification. See, one of her siblings was used as a living prison for an angry god and that uh. Didn't work out for the sibling in question or anyone else.

This account is itself heavily abbreviated but it's likely that any other sibling Hornet encounters will be trying to take over as the god's new prison. She appears to challenge any sibling she sees to battle, in order to test their resolve against herself and her needle - would they actually have a chance against that god?

We never actually see her kill any siblings, but she does quite pointedly tell one of them that (to paraphrase) "My needle is lethal and I would feel no sadness in a weakling's demise."

Feels like a relevant quote. In any case, if they can't beat Hornet, it seems like her needle would be a far more merciful end than what the god would grant.

Anyway, a bit of additional material for @swordswomanshowdown :

As is the case for any cool swordswoman, it's not just her sword that's lethal, it's her with it. And Hornet's needle was custom made for her - the creators have said that, while other needles exist, hers was made specifically for her to wield, and its construction allows her to use her spider silk better in combat.

And another thing that I think makes her a good swordswoman: she's actually pretty thoughtful about how she uses it. There's a least one instance where she tries to warn someone off before fighting them! At the same time, when she does fight, she seems to enjoy it - during her boss battles, you can hear her laugh sometimes, as if exhiliarated. She's really got it all, as a swordswoman!!!

#HORNET SWEEP CMON PLEEEEEEASE#shes gay. shes the only sibling with a gender. shes a spider named HORNET. look like croissant. whats not to like

Xena

Warrior Princess

She wields a sword and chakram. Just had to submit a biconic swordswoman.

i love her. she made me gay as a kid. Anyway, her weapon of choice is her sword, she is obviously very good with it

#unfortunately i have to choose and i have to choose xena#a) utena had no warcry. b) xena fought gods. c) xena has kickass goofy comic book combat which is my favorite

xena didn’t just fight gods. she fucked up a girl’s life so bad that she (calisto) devoted her entire being to destroying everything that xena loved that ended up with calisto becoming a god in order to destroy xena, which didnt work because xena entombed her in lava. and then when xena and gabrielle encountered calisto in the (christian) afterlife (different from the greek one which they also fought her in), calisto dragged gabrielle to hell so xena became an archangel in order to save gabrielle and then sacrificed herself in order to undo all the harm that she did in calisto’s life and then when not!jesus (played by timothy omundson) revives xena and gabrielle, calisto impregnates xena with the reincarnation of calisto’s soul in order to end the cycle of hate. xena doesnt just fight gods. she creates and destroys them

#this isnt even mentioning her fighting julius ceasar several times#telling brutus that caesar is not his friend#xena and gabrielle’s souls reincarnating across centuries in order to kick ass and fall in love all over again#or the time xena became a god but tbh that ep is kinda ‘uhhhhh…..’ even if they did hire a consultant for it

#I think everyone here knows to vote for Xena. I think a couple people here might have some propaganda for Xena saved already#everyone remember that Xena/Gabrielle is CANON and that's a pretty big deal also#(does anyone have that Xena Loves Trans People interview around because that would also make good propaganda)

I love Xena ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️

𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐦𝐞?

Summary: you dreamt of having her lips on yours, finding the right time and place to confess your love! Oh- but you missed a step out of eagerness…”can I kiss you?” Reactions of Fem!heartslabyul cast.

Featuring the following - residents of Heartslabyul

|| Heartslabyul || Savanaclaw || Octavinelle || Scarabia || Pomefiore || Ignihyde || Diasomnia ||

Riddle is stunned!

“Can I kiss you?”

Riddle let’s out a shriek of a scream, her hands quickly push the side of your face for how close you were.

“What!? Are you insane, [Name], did Ace set this up—!”

You laugh softly at her accusations, you would’ve been just as flustered as she is, if it weren’t for her adorable reaction.

She bites her bottom lip when she sees how calm you were about this, you’re serious. You gently lift her wrists off you, holding them between the both of you as you hum for her awaiting answer. She can’t stand the way you’re staring at her, it’s making her even more embarrassed with how heated her body felt.

“A kiss? How forward of you to sweeten me up on this…date, I suppose—“

“So is that a yes?” She flicks your forehead.

You giggle to yourself, apologizing even though you knew it wasn’t hurting anyone. And Riddle would be the fattest liar if she denied this request because of her nervousness. She tried to regain her confidence back but with how you managed to confess a kiss!! —Baffles her.

To call this a date on her part made it worse, you can practically see steam flow from her head and into a mist of hearts. How unusual.

“Just one!” You blinked at how loud she was, her eyes squinting as her head faces the ground.

Surprised by how Riddle shyly pulled at your collar to reach on her tippy toes as she quickly gives you a peck on the lips. It’s quick but you can feel the soft gloss of her chapstick. A smile rose on your lips at how cute the aftermath was. She’s a stuttering mess, perhaps that was her first kiss?

“Did I do it right? Was it too short, do I need practice—! [Name]!!”

Maybe..

Trey is confident!

“Can I kiss you?”

Trey stops poking at her food. A raised brow and a goofy smile on her face that she failed to contain. At first she planned to pretend to not hear you, but the way you stared up at her with a desperate glance made butterflies in her stomach.

“Where did all of this come from?”

“Nothing crazy…would it be if I told you I always wanted to kiss you?”

She folds her fingers together through her knuckles, resting her chin on them as she gives you a soothing hum as result in thinking.

“I wouldn’t say crazy. Is there anything else you’d want from me?” Your plan to stare confidently into her eyes didn’t work out, leaving you wandering to the table and food in front of you out of intimidation. You don’t want her to think your selfish, this was your first step into confessing and you’re blowing it off!

“No! Uh, no. Just…that..?” You’re not even sure yourself, way to go.

Trey laughs at your failed attempt in seducing her, although she admires your boldness. You weren’t expecting the tables to be turned this quickly, picturing Trey to be the one all flustered and red yet here you are. Taking her place. Trey calls for your name, making you perk your head up to see her finger motion for you to come closer.

A excited gasp leaves your lip before you can register, too busy scooting your way towards her.

She stops you by placing her hands on your cheeks, making your lips slightly pucker and pausing your excitement. It’s gentle yet loving, her head tilted to give a kiss wanting more. She separates leaving you with a whine until she placed one more on your forehead. Her smile showing all teeth made hearts float around you.

“Don’t get too greedy now.”

Cater is playful!

“Can I kiss you?”

Cater’s eyes flickers towards you from her mirror, eyeing you up and down as you grow nervous the longer she gazed. You sat on her bed all stiff and sweaty now that you’ve broken that out. Praying that you made the right decision.

“What’s that cutie? Did you say something?”

Your mouth went dry. She didn’t hear you!? To get out of this embarrassing mess you trip over your words to make up the request. Her attention was on you now, the makeup on the table forgotten as she creeps closer to further role you up. You’re not even sure if you understand how her voice carried a jokingly tone. Too caught up in your slip up to notice how close she is.

“Can you repeat it, if you ask nicely that is.” You swore she’s making fun of you at this point, but her puppy eyes leaves you stuttering the truth once more.

“Can I kiss you—!…please..?”

A small laugh erupts from her perfect lips, she’s inching towards you in a second to catch you off guard. Laying flat on the bed as she leaves kisses down from your lips to cheeks, her legs straddling your hips. Your hands shake; daring not to place them on her hips.

“Mwah! Look at you, you’re so cute..” She squeals at you after retreating, grabbing her phone to take a picture at your flustered face.

“Hey! Don’t send those to anyone!”

Cater places a finger on your forehead to push you gently back down. A grin creases her cheeks as she places the phone to your direction. Lipstick marks are painted from your lips to cheeks. A part of you can’t help but feel shy yet happy that your crush reciprocated her feelings back.

“Can you send me that?”

Ace is suspicious

“Can I kiss you?”

Ace stops herself from further stuffing her face with the homemade cookies you guys just made. Well more like you made. But she quickly swallows her snack to respond loudly.

“Are we starting truth and dare already? What’s going on, are there camera hiding!”

She’s agitated now, looking around the kitchen with furious whips of her head to look bottom to top. You sigh helplessly for this woman. Ace frowns yet twitches a smirk, crossing her arms in a now defensive stance.

“Oh I see what this is…sure! I’ll do it, I’m not wussing out on this.” You aren’t sure if that’s some sort of cover up.

Shrugging, you got the call to do what you started. Closing your eyes and leaning close to Ace who you can particularly hear squealing through her shut lips. She stops you by grabbing your shoulders to a halt, now going on a nervous rant on how she needs to get ready.

“It can be quick.”

“No! I mean..no, I can handle a normal kiss, I’ve kissed my ex before you know!”

There’s a glint of satisfaction in your eyes in seeing her excited yet timid, it’s not like Ace to act this way. You reassure her by taking her hand and rubbing it gently in yours, bringing it to your cheeks so you can tell her to take her time.

A sigh of relief, Ace recalls her experience then leans forward. Her kiss is sweet and long. She doesn’t pull until you tap at her shoulders. A hand over her mouth as she finds her voice.

“Can we do it again?”

Deuce is ready!

“Can I kiss you?”

“Yes.”

You stare at Deuce who’s gnawing at her bottom lip with a determined look. Her face is serious yet it was hard to take her serious, not when she pulls out a neatly and surprisingly not crumbled envelope from her pocket. She’s also shocked from her sudden answer now that she slowly comes to terms of your halfway confession.

“I’ve been waiting for months to give you this, [Name]. I’m glad you feel the same.”

Holy moly she’s cute. You can feel your own heart bursting as you take the envelope from her hands, it smells like her perfume. It feels like some sort of movie, throwing yourself on her to embrace in a hug. A hug that had friendship and love, so much that it came to a point of comfort.

Within each others arms, you both slightly pull away to gaze at one another’s cheeky grin. Deuce was the first to capture your lips, taking your breath by how bold and eager for someone who’s never kissed before.

There wasn’t a need for words, not when both of your actions and hers speak louder, showing love you wish would never end.

In the moment you brace yourself for another hug, burying your face in her hoodie and neck. Her skin was so warm and so was the kiss, you didn’t even look back to see Deuce holding onto you so tightly.

Until you heard sniffles and a wet patch on your shoulder.

“Deuce, are you crying?”

You can hear her rapidly rubbing her eyes with her sleeves.

“No!”

Done waiting

Pairing: Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw x fem!reader

Word Count: 1621

Warnings: Very self-indulgent, major insecurities, lots of fluff/comfort

A/N: I really appreciate the support on the other Rooster fics I've been posting--you guys are making it fun to post! This is based on a post that tumblr won't let me link, though I think it was originally intended to have a more goofy tone, so my apologies. Nonetheless, I enjoyed writing it! Without further ado, here you go!

You had been best friends with Rooster since you met in the Top Gun program. Somewhere along the line, you’d fallen in love with him. If you were someone else, you might have told him. However, you were well aware that he couldn’t feel the same, so you never said anything.

It was easier to ignore after Top Gun, when you were both on distant assignments and only able to text or call occasionally. Now, summoned back to Top Gun, for a mission they wouldn’t tell you about until you arrived, you were terrified. For yourself, sure, but also for Rooster. The fear for him was what had your feelings threatening to bubble over.

You needed to get it under control tonight, before the training started. Unfortunately, Rooster was making that difficult.

“Hey, are you okay, Hawk?” The man himself nudged your shoulder, snapping you back to awareness

“Yeah, sorry. Just thinking.” You flashed a tight smile before taking a swig of your drink.

“‘Bout what?”

“They’ve called us all back here. It’s gotta be something serious, I just can’t figure out what.”

“I’m sure they’ll tell us tomorrow. No sense in worrying just yet.”

“Who said I was worried, Roose?”

“Please, I know you. Your eyebrows draw together here,” he said, lifting his hand to touch the spot between them, “and they lift just a little.”

“It’s that obvious, huh?” you chuckled.

“Just to me.” Rooster’s half-smile matched yours. “C’mon, let’s go for a walk. We can catch up.”

“So, how was overseas? Meet anyone special?” you asked once you were out of the Hard Deck.

He laughed, leaning into you to stay upright. “No, no, nothing like that.”

“Oh, I find that hard to believe, big guy. They weren’t swooning over your every flex?” you teased.

“I’ll have you know I don’t just go around flexing.”

“Mmhmm, whatever you say.”

“What about you, then?” Rooster grinned, raising an eyebrow at you.

“What about me?”

“Meet anybody lately?”

“Nah, that was never my thing.” You brushed it off, dropping your gaze. You hadn’t had anyone interested in you before, and you weren’t going to start moping about it now. Certainly you weren’t planning to tell Bradley anything about it. Instead, you turned it back to him once again. “Really? No crushes, no dates, nothing?”

“Well, I…” It was his time to duck his head, catching your attention. “Not--”

“Uh uh, what was that?”

“What was what?” He turned toward you, stopping in the sand.

“You hesitated! There’s definitely someone.” Despite your teasing, his clear interest in someone hit you like a punch in the gut.

“Who said there was someone?” he deflected.

“Please, I know you,” you parroted his words from earlier.

“Fine, alright,” he admitted with a sigh. “There is someone I like.”

“Ooh, and the whole Navy is full of broken hearts for it.” Your heart was among them. “When did that start? Have you said anything to them?”

“I’ve been dropping the most insanely obvious hints for a few years now.” He started walking again, his shoulders drooping ever so slightly before he spoke again. “No response from her.”

“Ok, but what you think is obvious isn’t always actually obvious. You’re sure she would pick up on it?” Quietly, you told yourself that Rooster was your best friend. If this was how he would be happy, you resigned yourself to helping him win over his mystery crush.

“Phoenix said she could see it from a mile away.”

“You told Phoenix before me?” That stung.

“No, she saw it happen. Came up to me to tease me afterward.” It stung less, but the ache in your chest didn’t lessen with it.

“She sounds a little stupid, no offense.”

He chuckled, shaking his head. “No, not stupid. She’s quite smart, actually. Just a bit dense.” 

The undeniable fondness in his voice hurt. You had never been under any illusion that he would be interested in you. Bradley was so far out of your league in every way that mattered. Given time, you knew you would get better at acting. Perhaps you would even get past your feelings for him.

“Maybe you just need to be more obvious?” you suggested.

“How would I do that?”

“I don’t know, maybe just say it to her. Maybe ‘Hey, I love you,’ or something like that.”

“Not a bad idea,” he acknowledged before turning to address you by your name. Your real name, not your callsign. “Hey, I love you.”

“Exactly like that.” You swallowed the hurt of knowing he wouldn’t ever mean that about you no matter how much you wished he would. “Now just tell it to her. And let me know how it goes.” You bumped his shoulder with yours.

“Wow.”

“And y’know, if she still doesn’t get it, she’s too dumb for you, Roose.”

He said your name again.

You wished he would stop. Stop making you melt with just his voice. Stop making you feel things you knew better than to feel. Stop making you wonder if he might just reciprocate. Stop making you wish for what might be.

“What?”

“Do you really not know?” he asked, his face scrunching in confusion.

“Know what? You’re not making any sense.”

“Hawk, it’s you. I love you.”

You laughed incredulously and something like anger grew in his face. Still, you shook your head as you started off down the beach again. “No, no you don’t.”

He stood there for a second, stunned, before jogging after you. “What the hell do you mean I don’t?”

“I mean you don’t love me. You can’t…” You cut yourself off, trying not to cry. “You can’t love me.” 

The anger in his face creased into concern when he heard the sob you choked off. His arms opened, reaching for you. You went to him without hesitation, wrapping your arms around him as you tried to force your shoulders not to shake. His hand held the back of your head, keeping you secure against him. Bradley’s breathing was deep and even, something you used to slow your own gasping breaths. He held you for a long minute, even after you calmed.

“Why can’t I love you?” he asked quietly.

“Why would anyone?” you returned his question with another. “Especially you. You’re… everything--brilliant, talented, funny, gorgeous, kind, everything--and I… I’m just me. You could have anyone you wanted and I just don’t see how you could want me.”

He squeezed you tighter for a minute before he pulled back to look at you. You avoided his gaze, still sniffling a little. His hand moved to your chin, gently encouraging you to lift your head. After a moment, you did, bringing your eyes to his briefly.

“Sweetheart, I--”

You cut him off with a hand over his mouth. “If you’re going to keep talking, I want you to be sure you mean it. I had a guy ask me out as a joke once and I don’t think I could handle it if you did that to me too.”

Bradley took hold of your wrist, moving your hand so it rested over his heart. “I promise you, I would never do that.” He waited for you to nod before he continued. “I do love you. I have since you gave me that old record.”

“Really? That was all the way back when we were in Top Gun.” When you chuckled weakly, his lips tilted up into a half-smile.

“Yeah. I’ve been trying to work up to asking you out since then. Better late than never, I guess.”

“Technically, you still haven’t.” You might have winked at him if you didn’t still feel raw. As it was, you managed a teasing tone that broadened his grin.

“You’re absolutely right. Allow me to rectify that mistake.” Bradley tucked a loose piece of hair behind your ear. This time when he said your name, delicious shivers ran down your spine. “Let me take you on a date?”

“I’d like that. I’d like that a lot.”  You felt warm as he looked at you in the moonlight. Perhaps it was the reflection of that light that seemed to glow in his eyes that made you braver. “I love you too, Bradley.”

“Yeah?” Shyness colored his tone--a rarity for him.

“Since you found me that time on the beach. You know which one.” You smiled, watching his hazel eyes. “I… I’m sorry for earlier. I shouldn’t have laughed.”

“Hey, no, it’s okay. I understand,” he reassured immediately. “I wish you knew how amazing you are, but until then, can you trust me to believe it for both of us?”

“There’s no one on this earth I trust more than you,” you said, your gaze turning a little uncertain after a moment. “You might have to remind me once in a while, though.”

He pulled you back into his chest, pressing a kiss to the top of your head before leaning his cheek there. “I’ll remind you as often as you need for as long as you let me.”

You were fighting tears again, this time wondering how you had possibly gotten so lucky. Bradley didn’t say anything, just held you close. He let you be the one to pull back, and you tucked yourself into his side for the walk back to his car.

“So, about that date,” you started, grinning up at him. “What are you thinking?”

“Well, I was thinking we could make dinner, get ice cream, the whole nine yards.”

“When are you gonna pick me up, sunshine?”

“Same as always, sweetheart,” he squeezed you closer by the shoulders, kissing your forehead. “6 sharp from the locker room after whatever their training is tomorrow.”

“I can’t wait.”

“Me neither.”

[deconstructthesoup]

I've been thinking about this lately, so, here's my Slay the Princess ships and why I ship them:

Witch x Damsel, aka Sleeping Briars: There's just something that's so compelling about the two "fairytale" vessels---aka, a witch and your classic damsel in distress---who can both lead to some of the most romantic routes in the game. The dynamic between a devious little prankster who has serious trust issues and can't let anyone get close as a result and an adorable sweetheart who trusts everyone and falls in love way too fast is really interesting to me, and I think they'd actually be pretty good influences on each other.

Adversary x Razor: Two ladies who love fighting, bloodshed, and pain in general? The potential is right there. They're different enough that there's some dimension, but they're similar enough that their dynamic would be killer. Literally.

Spectre x Stranger: Honestly, I just think that they're both very charming and would probably get along really well, but there is something to be said about them being the two Vessels you get when you don't really give the Princess a chance---either if you kill her without hesitation and get Spectre, or if you refuse to even meet her and get Stranger. They're both lonely and scattered, and maybe they'd find something in each other.

Thorn x Wild (Wounded): There's something really sweet and intimate about two people who've hurt and been hurt finding comfort in each other. Idk, I think it's nice.

Burned Grey x Drowned Grey: It's... it's right there. The duality is right there. The wedding gown and the funeral gown, the fire and the water---it's right there.

Prisoner x Skeptic: This is really the only Voice/Vessel ship I've got on my list, and it's because in my opinion, it's the most grounded. Prisoner is arguably the most human out of all of the vessels, and Skeptic's whole thing of picking things apart and looking at everything from a different angle feels like a pretty reasonable response to the insanity of the construct. Her cynicism combined with his suspicious attitude could make for a really interesting dynamic, and I think they'd balance each other out well.

Contrahero: Come on. Come on. They're perfect. The first time I saw the Stranger ending, my head was already buzzing with "they're staying in the cabin? Together? Married couple! Married couple!" thoughts. I'm far from the only person in the fandom who sees how amazing the dynamic of the intrepid knight and the goofy little jester is.

Smitten x Cold: The dynamic between the dashing romantic who lives off of passion and feeling and the tired and quiet soul who seems to have cut himself off from emotion altogether is too compelling to ignore. The tension just writes itself.

Stubborn x Opportunist: While these two seem pretty different at first glance, I think the fact that both of them are voices who don't know when to quit speaks wonders as to how they might bounce off of each other. One of them solves problems through fists and fighting and the other solves problems through words and deceit---and I think that creates a pretty interesting duo.

Huntcheat: @tai-janai got me hooked. It's actually pretty damn adorable, I dunno what else to say.

(Also, Nightmare is aromantic in pretty much every one of my AUs, and Paranoid is aroace more often than not)

[arashi-no-saxlphone]

Your feelings remind me of Jack-O so much. Being made only for the purpose to die so someone else people actually want can come back, feeling like there's genuinely no point to you existing and your failing those around you the longer you continue to do so. When Sol says "Have I ever called you Aria?" just snipe me through the skull next time Daisuke, don't drag me like this ;_;

YES YES YES Dude Jack-O Valentine is so fucking cool. What a fucking character arc and story and she's yet another one of those Guilty Gear moments where you play against her like "What's with this silly goofy lady?" and you read anything or watch Xrd/Strive story and have to lie down for a while.

The fucking scenes with her and Sol in Strive make me so insane. There's the one you mentioned here (Sol showing genuine emotion I am collapsing and sobbing) and then the part on the highway where Jack-O is just like "Frederick...?" Sol: "Yeah?" Jack-O: "...You're smiling." Sol: "Hm...." Like I am deceased. ALSO THE WAY SOL IS LIKE "Have I ever called you Aria?" AND JACK-O IS ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE WHO CALLS HIM FREDERICK??? POETIC CINEMA!!!

Jack-O is definitely one of the many examples of characters in this series feeling doomed by the narrative in some way and trying to come to grips with their existence or finding a way to live that won't make them miserable. Everyone finds a way to do it through many different means! (someone in the tags of an old post said a big part of it is relationships in Guilty Gear and I think that's a really good one). For Jack-O it's her connection to Sol - not because she's a unit made to house bits of Aria, but because she and Sol forge a new and separate relationship based on who she is as Jack-O. Sol accepts her as a different person and not this echo of his wife and I think it's part of what helps her feel that she can exist hiw she chooses to- she is not doomed to be temporary vessel.

Anyway thanks for this ask I love getting excited and Guilty Gear does it for me so easy - I think part of what makes this series so fantastic is the narrative and the character writing makes them all so profoundly human and relatable; even the characters that explicitly AREN'T human struggle with and posses humanity!! I think anyone can look to any of those characters and see echoes of themselves or other people and feel that it's going to be ok (It will work out!! (haha The Hourglass reference)).

I LOVE PAZ ORTEGA ANDRADE <the version i fixed in my head

disclaimer: I did some major projection to get to this point and i acknowledge that most of the meaning im getting from her character was not kojima's intentions im just taking what i saw and running because im GOOFY!1!1!1!1!

OKAY SO- PAZ REMINDS ME OF THE POC STRUGGLE SO MUCH ITS INSANE- especially a latina one-

The way she has to hide all her anger and resentment just for the mission- keeping away all her actual feelings and making herself as palatable as possible- cute, demure, innocent and sweet, everyones dream girl- and most importantly non threatening- reminds me of the masking one has to do to do move up in a place that hates them- i know in the case of the game its for the sake of being a spy for cipher but at the same time- it specifically reminds me so much of the masking POC have to do- having to suck up to authority and make yourself as ideal as possible- becoming what someone else wants you to be for the sake of your "mission"- even the selectiveness of how Paz came to be- the last one standing among the other candidates for "Paz"- thats really how it feels trying to move up in society as a POC- i cant help but think of how so many systems in the USA filter out POC until theyre only left with the palatable and idealistic POC that they can parade around as a symbol of their progressiveness- SHES JUST SO- THATS HER- THATS LITERALLY HER- cipher groomed her into becoming the person "Paz" was- cipher groomed her into denying her own identity for the sake of infiltration- the same way some POC are groomed into "infiltrating" their way up society-

EVEN THE WAY HER NAME IS PAZ, PEACE, SHES GROOMED INTO PRETENDING TO BE PEACE- and in this POC struggle rep im setting up, you could say that she represents the FAUX peace- a fake peace- that "progressive" white spaces groom into existence- a peace that isnt peace at all-

MOVING ON

in MSF Paz ends up being loved and cared for and actually having fun- but at the same time none of that is real- and she struggles so much because the real her isnt receiving those things- the she that she constructed is- she wishes the self that she was forced to make was her- that it was natural to be that person because thats the person everyone loves- thats why she tries to extend the charade so long- but at the same time she knows that the person shes pretending to be isnt actually her which is what makes it so painful because then do they really love you- or do they love the you that you constructed- and all at the same time she still hates them because theyre the ones who cant love the real her- theres such a strong dissonance there and it never even gets resolved as she isnt even given the decision to move forward with things or not- her choice is stolen from her by cipher-

if i wanted to make a massive stretch this could also be thrown into the POC struggle narrative- wanting to be loved but the white people giving "love" only giving it to the palatable you- you know youre on thin ice at all times and can never be the real you- the you thats angry and resentful- unless you want to be stripped of everything- but i think the MSF being kinda- very opposite to society messes with that- but it still feels like a very relatable experience for anyone who masks to a more extreme extent (cough*me*cough)

ah but the way I fixed the construction of Paz i made in my head regarding the creepy Big Boss x Paz stuff was by explaining the weird away by believing that she was comphet projecting a crush- shes a lesbian to me and strangelove was her awakening thank you very much <3

ANYWAYS IM NOT GONNA TALK ABOUNT GROUND ZEROS BECAUSE THAT WAS JUST STRAIGHT MESSED UP AND IM NOT GOING TO DEFEND THAT AT ALL- THAT WAS JUST- WRONG- SO WRONG- the one thing i will say is that her favorite song being "Here's to You" and her death being her jumping out of the helicopter- fits very very well- that decision to throw herself out of the helicopter- really was one of the only decisions she made herself- "that last and final moment is yours, that agony is your triumph"- her first and last moment of autonomy- being her deciding what happens as she dies- it just- mmmgmngnsdhughekgliuhaeihfgiluwhi (i am crying as i write this) I love Paz

And as for phantom pain- that wasnt Paz there- she was once again made into someone constructed to be as ideal as possible- even her language in the tapes- its was so obvious just from hearing the way she spoke- but at the same time i think Paz would have been happy that her sacrifice meant something to at least one person-

ANYWAYS YEA

THATS HOW I FIXED PAZ IN MY HEAD

SHES ALSO TAN TAN AND HAS CURLY HAIR AND HAS A REAL ACCENT 👍

to me

to me at least

im just as bad as the rest of MSF i constructed a Paz that I love in my head which is super super ironic

THIS CONCLUDES WHY I LOVE PAZ ORTEGA ANDRADE AND AM THE ONLY ONE WHO UNDERSTANDS HER <3333

[ramblingandwritings]

V NSFT alphabet

Sometimes your brain fucks around and you end up liking a guy who looks like he has a couple Type O Negative cds kicking around somewhere

18+ for filth

A = Aftercare

V just wants to rest for a bit with you, and enjoy the closeness and affection you so kindly give him. He keeps his arms wrapped around you and his face buried in your neck

B = Body Part

He's not incredibly picky but he does love a good pair of legs and they're even better wrapped around his waist

C = Cum

V has a thing for facials. He'll swipe his thumb across your covered face and press it between your lips to let you taste him. He praises you for allowing him the pleasure

D = Dirty Secret

V wants to be tied to the bed as used however you want. He knows he'd likely be unable to move in the morning but it'd be worth the pain

E = Experience

Unless you count Vergil's experiences then V has exactly zero

F = Favourite Positions

Watching you bounce on his cock is the closest he'll ever get to seeing something truly divine in his life. Close second is laying side by side in bed in the morning while still half asleep

 

G = Goofy

He doesn't take sex anywhere nearly as serious as Vergil does. V isn't above making a dry joke here and there or laughing, he knows just how short life can be so he's gonna enjoy it this time around

H = Hair

His body is completely hairless naturally which is kinda strange

I = Intimacy

He was too afraid to be close to anyone while he was Vergil. He desperately wanted love, affection and closeness but couldn't let himself have it. V isn't making that mistake twice

He'll gladly hold hands and say sweet nothings or keep his forehead pressed to yours while buried inside of you. Sex with him is intimate and vulnerable no matter how kinky it gets

J = Jack-Off

He much prefers your hands stroking him to his own and typically he'd rather wait to be with you. If he's away demon hunting for too long then he will take matters into his own hands literally. If he's feeling wild then he'll actually call you while he's masturbating, he doesn't hide what he's doing from you at all

K = Kink

Bondage, domination, submission, facials, one giant praise kink and body painting. If you let him then he'll spend hours recreating Blake's art on you

L = Location

As long as you have some privacy then he's fine. He doesn't like having sex in the shop after the time everyone overheard what the two of you were getting up to

M = Motivation

The easiest way to get him hard is to straddle his lap while he's reading. If he wants to toy with you, he'll keep his eyes on his book and make you work for his attention

N = No

Not really into pain play, giving or receiving. Some forms of pain remind him of being a servant of Mundus and he could go without being reminded of that constantly

O = Oral

He has no preference for giving or receiving they're both bliss. V knows exactly how to use his mouth to his advantage and he's perfectly fine spending some time on his knees

P = Pace

He wants to enjoy it and take his time, anything else almost feels like a waste. There's no rush, neither of you are going anywhere

Q = Quickie

Not his thing

R = Risk

As long as it doesn't hurt or put either of you into a possibly really embarrassing situation then he's willing to hear you out if you're curious about trying something new

S = Stamina

The trick of being chronically ill is having good days and bad days. On a good day, he's actually capable of going multiple rounds. If he feels like death warmed up then he might only feel up to light petting if that

T = Toy

All for them. He's not going to feel emasculated by a toy, that's just insane. Using toys on him is more than welcome too, clear fleshlights are the most fun to him

U = Unfair

V is all about teasing throughout the day. Light touches when no one is looking, quiet promises of what he'll do to you later and whispered threats of punishment if you can't behave yourself

He's not above making you beg to cum if he wants to hear it

V = Volume

Shamefully loud on accident. V tries to muffle himself but his moans and gasps can be heard faintly the next room over

W = Wild Card

Mark him down as wax play curious. Trish casually mentioned massage candles in a conversation with Nico and Lady and his interest was piqued

X = X-Ray

Perfectly average when soft and uncut clocking in at 5 inches. He's a grower though having more slightly more length than girth. If you're curious, his tattoos end just above the base of his dick

Y = Yearning

Mid-high but it ultimately depends on the day

Z = ZZZ

He's awake long enough to enjoy the afterglow and closeness for a few minutes. If you don't have anywhere to go afterwards then he's content to sleep for a bit

[sh4tt3rg1rl]

TAOCC IS AMAZING, and boy has it changed since I first showed up

Aka: Elsie gets really sentimental for once

I’m gonna be honest, this is not the community I expected to end up in on this site. I joined Tumblr about October 29th and expected to end up as maaaaaybe a minor artist. At best. At the time TADC was just “that glitch thing that was blowing up that I thought was pretty good” and I was much more into murder drones anyways.

…Holy crabs, looking back on that…I had no idea what I was gonna end up getting into lol

I randomly followed the @/ragatha1 ask blog at one point, kind of confused as to what an ask blog was but hey, why not? That’s how I found Soup’s gangle blog and boy did things go off the rails. I was…so confused, I showed up smack dab in the middle of the Tiger insanity with no idea who any of these characters or people were. At that point iirc, “TAOCC” wasn’t even the name for the whole thing yet. I made Easton and was like “okay I’ll just have this goofy guy who likes sandwiches, no angst here, maybe he’ll make some friends, I really hope everyone likes him!”

BOY WAS I IN FOR A SURPRISE

I joined my first ever magma at that point as well! And I vividly remember being really confused but just doodling my sona in the corner and then people were like

“Uhhhh who the frick is Elsewhere I like your art :D”

and I was like

“Um

you what”

and thus I joined magma…a lot. Lol. That’s how I got to know soup and you (Xeya) and a few others. I felt so…weirdly new. Like impostor syndrome was in full force. That feeling hasn’t…really ever gone away, tbh.

And since then I’ve figured myself out mostly with only a few embarrassments to my name. I’m really grateful for the people I’ve made friends with, especially Fei, Star, Soup, and Xeya, as well as Kumo and Candy mods. You guys have been lovely to me, and I don’t know how I ever came to deserve that. It’s been rough at times, and I had to/still have to figure out boundaries and how to be assertive basically from scratch. This website still hurts me sometimes, and I accept that I’m a bit odd in some respects. But overall, people have respected that here much more than they do in my actual life. People have respected me here more than they tend to in real life. Before this I could share my writing and art with one person. One. I would go stir-crazy because I would make art and writing and never get to show anyone, which meant I just…spent like an entire year not doing anything. It sucked. And now I will just,..make art and characters for the funsies, and not get scolded for it. I can write incredibly florid descriptions and scenes about stuff like a freaking TOWN’S DESCRIPTION, and people will like it and tell me I’m good at this. I honestly might consider becoming a writer now when I become an adult. I learned that I can be shamelessly self indulgent when writing and people will enjoy it lol. Thank you guys for dealing with that btw lol. I will just MAKE CHARACTERS FOR PEOPLE FOR THE FUNSIES, a willingness I thought I’d all but lost. Like, I saw a 3d printer in my chem class two days ago and went “hmmm yunno what I could give a character in TAOCC a 3d printer for a head and that’d be so cool! Yunno, maybe Xeya would like it if I made that for her.” AND HERE WE ARE I’M CURRENTLY MAKING YOU A CHARACTER WITH A 3D PRINTER FOR A HEAD.

Also, you guys have no idea how grateful I am that you go along with my giant overarching plotlines. Like, my first test of the idea was Dusk’s domain and Sun’s trip to see Northeast, and then I was confident enough that people would care that I made the entire Lull/dungeon thing. The dungeon has been my magnum opus of writing, I put more work into that than almost anything else I’ve ever written. And people actually…respected that. I’m terrible at writing fight scenes, and yet I carried a fight scene for multiple hours with like…20 characters! I DIDN’T THINK I COULD HAVE TWO CHARACTERS FIGHT AND MAKE IT WORK AT ALL! OH MY LANDS I HAVE ACTUAL SELF CONFIDENCE NOW!! AAAAAAAAA-

anyways, that aside lol

it’s been wonderful, really. I feel like the pros far outweigh the cons for me, and the cons for me can be mitigated anyways entirely on my side of things lol. I came to this site looking for a community of people who would appreciate me, stupid flaws, autism, anxiety, writing and all. And I think I got that. And I want to find more, I want to keep going beyond this little bubble, but I want to always come back to this little circle of people. I don’t care how many rps or writing messes I end up in, TAOCC is always going to have a special place in my heart, flaws and all. It’s helped me get through some serious mess in my life, and being excited to come home to whatever insanity these lil guys are up to today makes me happy like almost nothing else.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Thank you for letting this odd moth in, I hope I’ve earned it.

HELL YEAH YOUVE EARNED IT!!!

You've been literally one of the kindest people I've met on the site. One of the most talented too! I've never seen someone write like you and. Honestly. Genuinely. I look up to you in quite a few aspects.

You're funny, kind, caring, skilled, and a great person overall. and im SO FUCKING GLAD YOURE MY FRIEND EEEEE HUGS SPINS YOUUUU

... (kicks feet) and I heard something about a 3d printer head oc youre making for me.... (teary eyed) (/pos) (me when people do things for me. i love yall. sm. love you elsie sm sM SM SM SM SM!!!)

[jjkyaoi]

actually im making a headcanons posts abt my ideas for a potential nancy and eddie best friends relationship because yes i’m fucking annoying 😊😊😊 but they’re both individually my favorites out of the older kids so i think they should kick their feet together

• they bond over steve. to no one’s surprise, because nancy’s cool and amazing and scarily observant so she’s aware that eddie has a thing for him, even when they’re in the upside down. she knows the pathetic little goo goo eyes from a mile away, and because it’s steve harrington and she was with him she feels comfortable sliding up to him while they’re walking along the endless maze of dark bullshit that is the upside down and being like, “i know you’re into my ex boyfriend. 😊” and eddie bites his tongue so hard he starts coughing

• mind you, nancy’s completely aware that she’s into robin, because she’s cool like that, so she just kind of raises her eyebrow to him and pointedly makes a gesture to robin, who’s trying to make steve skip between the vines with her, and is like. “it’s fine. irdgaf 🤷‍♀️ “ and eddie feels the air leave his lungs in such a strong burst that he almost falls over with it

• they become close immediately after it. eddie latches onto the anomaly that’s nancy wheeler because he thinks it’s fucking insane that she dresses like a grandma and is a part of the school paper yet keeps guns in her bedroom and is apparently, for some fucking reason, a legitimate monster hunter. nancy’s never really had somebody be so interested in her completely without, dragging somebody else into it, so she’s kind of like ok be serious for a second ‘cause she thinks he’s fucking with her. but he’s not, and then she latches onto him with the same ferocity

• when eddie makes it out post volume two, nancy keeps him in their basement like they did with el. dustin whines and complains about it but she grips him by the shoulders and gives him the famous nancy wheeler 😊 threat so he (begrudgingly) let’s eddie go. nancy makes a whole fucking pillow fort for him down there, and constantly sneaks down some parts of her dinner, and comes downstairs sometimes just to sit and talk with him and eddie has also, never had somebody who’s wholeheartedly interested in his company so he just kind of sits there. and is goofy about it

eddie: nancy, i don’t need all of this pillows—little bit fucking concerned about how many damn pillows you have in the first place??? and jealous. extremely envious and bitter

nancy: shut up.

eddie: ok!

nancy: you’re right, though, i don’t need all these, because i’m sleeping in my room while you’re down here on the cold floor without anyones company, so you’re going to shut up and take these and you aren’t going to make a quip and/or comment about it for the rest of the night.

eddie: you are the coolest person i’ve ever met

• it weirds mike out, how much they get along, because his stuck up sister shouldn’t be painting eddie-stick-it-to-the-man’s nails whenever he walks downstairs, and he shouldn’t be catching nancy wearing one of his bands shirts and she shouldn’t say, “oh, hm? eddie let me borrow it” when he asks because that’s—not something frilly skirts nancy wheeler does. but she does now, apparently, and it weirds the fuck out of him.

• eddie loves to imprint on the people he cares for, physically, so he’s like consistently hanging off of her. he tugs on her hair whenever he wants her attention he taps her on the shoulder along with the beat when a song he likes get a drum solo, ruffles her hair frequently and it makes her brain white out with older-sibling-has never been shown-affection syndrome, and it’s just really.

robin: okay, nance, i have to—i’m sorry, i don’t mean to harsh your vibe or whatever but what is eddie doing. genuinely. what is he doing.

eddie, sprawled across nancy’s legs and repeatedly poking her in the face and pinching her cheek for no reason:

nancy: he does this.

• nancy’s like, 80 percent of his impulse control but if he were to start a bar fight he would chicken out of it when it got physical and nancy would finish it for him.

• they’re the 😊 and 😒 dynamic but like, platonically

• everyone in their group is so convinced they’re dating becaus e of their general. everything, and dustin tries to breach this topic while he’s over at the wheeler’s once and eddie snorts milk through his nose

dustin: i mean, i’m just saying, it’s cool that you’re together and i’m happy for you, but it’s—the whole thing with jonathan and steve dude it’s fucked and i-

eddie, trying to tell him he’s queer without telling him he’s queer: dustin, the boyest guy ever, there is no chance i would ever get with nancy wheeler . ever

dustin; …okay, i’m a little bit fucking offended on nancy’s behalf, now-

eddie; dustin henderson

• nancy doesn’t like to get intoxicated because she likes having a clear mind and considering. what happened the one time she didn’t, it isn’t something she feels comfortable doing most of the time However eddie pesters her to get high with him for approximately 3 whole days straight like a fucking insane person until she’s like OKAY. jesus. calm down. weirdo

mike, coming downstairs to see them blasted out of their minds: eddie 😕 can you stop corrupting my sister please i’m tired of people saying she’s cool now

nancy, before losing her fucking mind in laughter; i’ve always been fucking coolBitch

• nancy tries her damn hardest to infect some of her style into eddie’s life because she frequently takes his shirts, but he grabs her by the face looks at her calmly and says nancy wheeler i would fucking die for you but i also will shoot you with your own guns if you ever make me put on those 67 year old woman skirts

• eddie’s a very clumsy person. he doesn’t mean to, most of the time, but he’s always kind of bringing disaster wherever he goes and nancy’s always kind of picking up for him. like they’re walking along the street and eddie’s not looking where he’s going and there’s a crack in the floor and nancy grabs him by the hand and yanks him away. she has a sixth sense for his bullshit now it’s like her spidey tingle he says

nancy; you’re about to spill that drink everywhere

eddie: could you stop examining my behavior

nancy: could you stop breaking thinsg in My house that i let you in

• eddie’s totally the type of friend that just decides to randomly start moving when an adrenaline rush hits him for no reason. like they’ll be listening to music in nancy’s basement and he’ll suddenly be grabbing her and begging her to dance with him even though the Most he can do is that dumb little sway and she is so. incredibly fond that she just shakes her head and says OKAY.

eddie; do you think steve’s gay? like… did you ever see anything …..a little bit… you know…

nancy, in the middle of painting his nails; if you’re asking me if i think he’s into you then i can’t say, because he hasn’t looked at me in the eyes since the “i want to have kids with you” debacle, however i can say that yes he does like men. in general.

eddie: holy shit. are you like 100% sure?

nancy: i mean, at least i think so. again. he hasn’t looked at me, eds, but you spend enough time with a person like steve and you notice things and trust me i have

eddie: you are my best friend & the light of my life

nancy: i know. mess up this nail job again by moving and i’ll hurt you.

• nancy’s a little bit of a worrywart. not as much as steve is, it’s just in the way where she’s lost a lot of people when she’s let them become her friends so she’s always kind of hovering. always kind of watches what she says so she doesn’t hurt someone like she did barb the last time she saw her, and it takes her awhile to sort of break out of that mindset but. she does. eventually

eddie: would you ever move in with me?

nancy: no. absolutely not.

eddie: oh, c’mon wheeler, i thought i’d finally broken your icy little shell of a heart-

nancy: not giving that a response. i’m not living with you because you had unnamed stains on your bed for months, and you keep me up with questions like “are worms real” at 3AM when i choose to stay down in this basement with you, so no i’m not.

eddie: fair enough

• sunshine and sunshine protector perhaps?

• they totally would be the type to talk shit. like nancy stomps down to her basement after somebody pisses her off at school and eddie sits up because he knows it’s going to be a good one, and eddie tells her all the drama because when you’re the renowned freak people don’t really care about letting you hear things, and they’re 100% catty little bitches.

nancy: ok, i didn’t want to be that person—

eddie, immediately invested; oh is it bitching hours? are we- are we bitching?

nancy; you shut up. i’m not—okay. listen. tammy thompson’s a wonderful person, and i think she’s got a bright future and she’s a sweetheart, but she. her singing

eddie: she sounds so bad . she is so tone deaf

nancy: SHE SOUNDS SO BAD oh god i’m sorry

• nancy is the only one who can reign him in when he’s on his bullshit. he’s being particularly loud and everyone’s like GODDDD eddie shut up ☹️ and nancy just looks at him. and he wilts like an unwatered flower and lowers his volume and she’s like thank you 😊😊

[rivetgoth]

Dug up some ancient tweets on my private Twitter that I used to use as a vent space as a teenager (protip: don’t do that. get a journal LMAO). It’s wild seeing my tweets in 2015 (when I made the account) through 2016 be literally like, constant venting about how depressed and miserable I was, how much I wanted to die, how suicidal I was, literally talking about what I would put in a suicide note, talking about how I felt like I would never be happy ever and there was no hope for a future, up until late 2016-early 2017 when I discovered Skinny Puppy and Nivek Ogre. You get a few goofy tweets at first that are just my initial reactions and the most insane tweet is one where I actually assert that I don’t think Ogre is attractive and just like his work (LMAOOOO) but there is a very distinct shift in my way of speaking where I start saying things like this:

Idk if these really mean anything to anyone else I know the 2010s tumblrspeak dialect makes it sorta hard to take seriously maybe but like. Idk man, I have not looked back at these tweets before, tbh I hate going through my archive and only ever do if I need to find something specific because it really brings about a lot of negative memories typically so I don’t think I’ve ever actually read through this until now. I don’t know how to put into words how much Ogre has done for me and I don’t know how to convey the fact that I would not be here without him. Now he knows me. Now I got to party with members of Skinny Puppy, he calls me and my beautiful lovely partner who I met through his music “the kids,” I just got back from this incredible trip across the country hanging out with all of these people I met through this music and through him and I just feel so happy and grateful and lucky to be alive at the same time as him and his music and to be a part of this incredible community.

[goosemagician]

so I was in a silly goofy mood and got the spontaneous inspiration to make yet another anti-hero playlist

I'm kinda hyperfixated on this au and idk why lmao

it might just be the fact that it takes all the sad about tpoh and wraps it up in a nice little ball

and then proceeds to punt it at your face and break your nose

I love emotional agony

anyway this one's sad now and sadly not as tailored to the content it's meant for 'cause all the depressing songs are either about heartbreak or self-hatred but at least self-hatred fits

anyway https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2ytFKB5AUv4C53amQ7LOgZ

pls mention if I actually hit the nail on its head with any of these songs I would love to know

oh my GOODNESS AAAAALSDKFJLKSDJF

YES YES A MILLION TIMES YES

okay spewing thoughts below the cut here we go buckle in

"Marceline, is it just you and me in the wreckage of the world? That must me so confusing for a little girl," LITERALLY ONE OF THE FIRST SONGS I LISTENED TO WHEN THINKING OF THIS AU YOU KEEP READING MY MIND AAAAAAAA

"I need to save you, but who's going to save me?" RGB raised this child at the END OF A WORLD that he LOVED and now it's GONE AND DEAD and it MIGHT BE ALL HIS FAULT (at least he's convinced that's true) and he doesn't feel like he deserves Hero at ALL and he wants so badly to be there for her but this man NEEDS A SUPPORT SYSTEM SO BAD AAAA

"A sadness runs through him" is also a SUPERB sad RGB song. It's beautiful and elegant just like him but also so deeply heart-wrenchingly aching AAUUUGH

"Bird Song" SUCH a good Hero song. "Well I didn't tell anyone, but a bird flew by. Saw what I'd done he set up a nest outside." She holds so much guilt for the end of the world. She's constantly trying to stomp down all of her feelings because she believes, at least subconsciously, that having feelings that are anything but "good" and "pleasant" automatically make her a bad person, which she tries so hard not to be but, at the same time, tells herself that she is BECAUSE of this. She's ANGRY and SAD and DESPERATE but if she ignores it long enough, then maybe it'll go away--maybe she can learn to live with it and the way it drags her stomach to her toes or eats away at the light that once resided inside her.

We all know how that turns out ;)

"The Dark" by Ethan Jewell. oh BOY.

"She whispers in my ear why have you done this, and what have you done? Why couldn't you have made the right choice for once?" RGB and Hero are SUCH guilt ridden characters its INSANE. There's a particular argument in this story that's pretty much this line verbatim. RGB knows Hero isn't wrong for being upset that she was the one chosen to be "The Hero," and that's what hurts. He shouldn't have chosen her, but if he hadn't it would have just been someone else. He didn't know her when he chose her, but now he does, and he'll regret that decision the rest of his life, even if it allowed him the happiness of raising her and taking care of her and being by her side. She's been through so much because of that one choice he made, and RGB will have one hell of a time forgiving himself for that.

"It's hard to get out of a hole when they take away your rope." Hero WAS his rope, until she sacrificed her heart for him and was consumed by, well, Hate. "This can't be happening. No, this can't be real." The very person he's sworn to protect, the person who broke down his walls and taught him what it means to push forward when everything pulls you back, the person who made him take back every rule he'd ever made for himself, like "not getting attached," has been ripped from him and turned on him, spewing his own self-hatred right back at him from the mouth of his DAUGHTER. The daughter he doesn't deserve to have or to love as much as he does and yet. She has been his PURPOSE these past twelve years. The world he dedicated his life to at least try to save has ended. So now he dedicates his life to this little girl who shouldn't be here, yet is anyway. He lives his life in apologies, trying to make up for the fact that she's still in this broken world with such a broken man for a father figure. Owie wowie.

"Monster" by Dodie. Hero has deliberately done a moral u-turn. If she can't be a Hero, she'll be a Monster. THAT'S KNIGHT HERO THAT'S WHY SHE EXISTS AAAAAAAAA

I have a PLAN for the song "Trust Me Not." It's LITERALLY a conversation between Knight Hero and RGB it's PERFECT

"Heart for Brains" by Roar. "Life's hard when you're soft." Even though Hero wears a VERY similar mask to RGB, thinking she's a monster and trying so hard to act tough and hard and be everything this new dead world demands her to be, underneath it all, she's still just Hero. She's that kind, caring, empathetic girl we all saw and loved. Tweens in general are incredibly angsty but Tween Hero gets it BAD because of this exact reason. She cares, and she doesn't want to because it hurts. The end of the world hurt so many people and took so many lives and she blames herself for that every single day. The SAME EXACT PROBLEM RGB HAD UNTIL THIS POINT. he cared. He didn't want to. So he WOULDN'T. (But he did. Or else he wouldn't have raised an entire child). Hero and RGB are little microcosms of each other and I find it so DELICIOUS story wise.

"A Soreness so Familiar it Soon Becomes Unquestionable" by Crywank. THE WAY THESE SONGS HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD IS REMARKABLE??!! "The choice between attack or to apologize. I find contrived white lies so no more anger will arise. The harmony isn't mutual but maybe I am condescending," The TUG OF WAR going on inside of Hero is REDONK and this is PERFECT.

Long story short, I think you're a mind reader and thank you so so so so much for sharing this!!!

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER.

REPOST DO NOT REBLOG !!

NAME: sam!! i also respond to zack c:

PRONOUNS: she/her, they/them!

PREFERENCE OF COMMUNICATION: if you don't have my discord, IMs will do until i give it out! i definitely prefer discord over anything else. 

NAME OF MUSE(s): Kaeya!!!!! i grab this scrunkly man and throw him against a WALL. i also have wriothesley over at @wwriothesley, alhaitham over at @aaleaqlania and sampo at @ddazzlingblds c: i'm generally more active on Kaeya and Wrio!

BEST EXPERIENCE: COMING BACK TO THE PARA RP COMMUNITY, and specifically the genshin one, WAS THE BEST EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD. i made so many friends, i finally felt relaxed in catching things up if i had to step away for a middle day nap, and my writing style improved so much......... i feel at peace now tbh. loving it here in my little zone 

RP PET PEEVES / DEALBREAKERS:

- i have seen Some Shit in my years and there's not a single manipulation technique, façade of wholesomeness or trick  that i haven't seen or that i don't recognize. trying to manipulate me into ANYTHING is the fastest dealbreaker known to man, and it won't work to boot. i'm tired, man. just let me roleplay in peace

- i despise the Harem Setting and no, you cannot romance my Kaeya to drag him into your little enclosure of other Kaeyas because i will actively ignore your attempts at interacting with me if i sniff that this is your endgoal. i will also not be sorry about it. it's in my rules that i an highly uncomfortable with it. i will never change my stance against it.

- my worst pet peeve is when i don't wake up with caps-locked headcanons about our muses from my shipping partners sent at 5AM- no seriously, i think that's all, it's just the two things above that i haven't talked about. or talked about enough in the second one's case-

MUSE PREFERENCES: completely insane muses who don't operate without a known logic, but also muses who hide their pain behind a friendly smile and would go to great lenghts for their loved ones. muses who have suffered beyond their threshold and still take it. muses who had an horrible past and now they're more well-adjusted and even a little bit goofy. muses that- *i am sniped from the closest building*

PLOTS OR MEMES: i want to say both but,,,,, memes are so quick, while plotting can take up a lot of energy that i don't have,,,,, yes i'll go with memes

LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: IF I DON'T HIT 16 PARAGRAPHS IN MY REPLY ASSUME THAT I HAVE HAD A STROKE AND HAVE BEEN LEFT AGONIZING ON THE FLOOR UNABLE TO REACH THE KEYBOARD

BEST TIME TO WRITE: after dinner when i am full of food and full of ideas c:

ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSE(S): kind of? if i had to pick one i'd have to say that i resonate with Wriothesley a bit more? thanks to my mental illness i went through Some Shit but now i'm steadily getting better. i feel like it influences my portrayal and makes me understand how he feels much better? if that makes sense?

I really don't mean to come off as mean or demanding because it's insane to expect people to know everything about... everything - the only thing that made me a little upset about your original post was the fact that you really can't be sure of overwolf's statements, since they're probably trying really hard to avoid being subject to a boycott, and you have a lot of followers. I'm sad people were mean about it since you obviously didn't mean anything bad by it and are going through tough times as well. If you have a kofi I'd be more than happy to donate 🩷 we all deserve help, no matter the size of our problems, Ceci

Thank you dear nonny, I apologize that I made you upset! Clearly I just don't know enough about this subject, and obviously have bias by the situation I am in too. But it's so tough when people look to you to make a statement immediately, you know? If you don't say anything quick enough, people get fucking furious and say you're ignoring it. I had anons within hours of that tweet saying I support literal genocide because I had posts on cf which is absolutely ridiculous. But I hate jumping into a statement fast, because as we saw here, half the time new stuff comes to your attention afterward that makes you look like a jackass, people attack you like you're the devil incarnate for not knowing everything, etc. I've been really confused and conflicted by all this, I see one thing and then more info that conflicts that and then more that conflicts that. I trusted the original poster that added Overwolf's statements because they were the one to bring this up in the first place, and I didn't see anything conflicting that on their tweet (Like additional sources etc). But immediately after I posted their tweet, well, you see how that one turned out. I was thinking about privating that post but I don't want anyone to think I deleted it- but should I? I don't want it to be misleading. Or should I reblog it with additional/updated info? Yall, please let me know. I am so lost these days mentally.

I am really sorry that I upset people though with that. And I was being honest when I said I've lost sleep over this and all this suffering weighs heavy on my heart. I think most of yall that have been with me for a long time know that I'm one of those people that just wants to fix everything and when I can't it's just devastating and I can't get it off my mind. And choosing between participating in a boycott and being able to pay for meds is not something I would wish on anybody. Especially when you got people coming on your post calling you privileged, disgusting, hypocrite, etc because you didn't delete your cc posts fast enough for their liking. The money i'm waiting on from cf is money I already earned. They already got the damn ad revenue. I aint earning them more money because I aint uploading anything else there, I'm waiting for what's already owed to me. But to people on simblr who likely don't even pay their own bills, that's worthy of some goofy callout post calling you genocidal. Over freaking sims 4 cc. It's mind boggling.

Anyway, I'm going on too long again lmfao. Let me say again, thank you nonny, I appreciate you. I think I have an old ko-fi account somewhere, I'm going to get it set up so people can tip here and there if they like my cc and don't care for patreon. I'm also gonna start doing commissions soon. And on that note if anyone has any suggestions for how to format that feel free to send them to my inbox. Along with any other related suggestions. ...alright, I think I'm done rambling fr 😂 love you nonny 💜

ofmd friends appreciation time!!

i thrive in long form media bc i like to ramble so im doing this here rather than on twt

ive met some of the nicest people ive ever come across since being in the ofmd fandom and they regularly make a point to tell me im great (silly gay people) so here is that for them all:

- eli: WELL where to begin, you are basically just the most iconic person ive ever met, youre so easy to talk to, youre always there to chat or for emotional support, feels like ive known you forever. You are so caring and attentative to everyone you interact with and im honoured to be in your inner circle so i get to speak to you everyday :)

- fia + av: i gotta group you two because i realised i have the same things to say to you both lol. i dont speak to you guys as much (i appreciate having a life outside the internet that is very good for u guys lmao) but i hear the best things about you both, and every interaction ive had with either of you is always easy, friendly and funny. i hope you both know that even if you dont hang around online as much, that we all love you just as much and appreciate hearing from you :)

- idunn: the loml, my silly little norwegian, (my scrumptious starfish) you have the best sleep schedule ive ever seen (which is bad for me bc u always go to sleep when i come online to speak to u hehe). im so glad we met, im so glad we get each other, and i hope you never stop being a goofy flirt, også, du er veldig pen og jeg liker deg hehehehehehe :))

- des: destynee, desody, desus, you liked me enough to invite me into the group and im so glad you did bc now i get to speak to all my fav people everyday so firstly thank you for that. secondly, YOU are so funny, youre so insane, it makes me so happy every time you bully me bc i can feel the affection through the screen and i hope i send that same vibe back to you because you really do bring everyone together and we all love you so much for it! you’re hilarious, and me stealing your memes is genuinely bc i adore you and want to entertain you like you do for me :)

- moony: honestly idek, everytime we speak i wonder if it was even real or some sort of weird hallucination. im so happy i know you because you will happily entertain anyones silly discourse and make every conversation so much funnier just by being there. i will be coming to visit you in spain so we can kiss x :)

- ella: my fellow brit! (it freaks me out everytime i remember how close we live i wont lie). when idunn asked if you could join the chaos and gave you a sparkling recommendation it was very accurate bc you are so nice and easy going and fit in effortlessly. its so easy to talk to you and im glad we can talk about british things without me doing it alone and getting ridiculed lmao. one day i will convince you to meet me irl so we can make one of the weird norwegian foods idunn has mentioned :)

- may: you make me laugh so much because you are so kind and easy to talk to and then you have the evil mayo side of you that is so insane and scares me a little (jokes please never retire evil mayo). never stop being you please provide me with interesting bird content forever and ever :)

- ratte: you are so entertaining, you always manage to make us all laugh, when youre online ik its going to be a good time, and youre so interesting when you talk about your interests in discord (ik i said interest twice lol) :)

- yuriy: you are one of the coolest people ive ever spoken to, you seem so laid back, youre hilarious, you motivate me to get stuff done in focus vcs lol and i love seeing you around :)

-mel: menace mel, you are so crazy and entertaining, you never cease to make me and everyone else giggle. im glad you are a part of the group and i hope to have you around in my life for a long time :)

i could go on forever about these specific goons i adore them all so much i am forever amazed at their kindness, how easy to get along with everyone is, how we can all joke without anyone ever going too far, its such a safe happy place, we all support each other so much and im so so happy it was such an inclusive progressive sexy show that bought us all together

(and everyone else im mutuals with or speak with idc if weve spoken one time i love you and smile when i see you all on my tl and being giddy in gcs, i hope i can put out the vibes that u guys provide me with bc you all deserve it)

no more sappy soup i will now return to being mysterious and cool (/lie)
