look ok there are a lot of things I'd like to see in Beyond the Spiderverse, but the only one I think will happen is Gwen's team showing up on Earth 42 in the middle of a fight - maybe a Sinister Six face-off, or Miles' trying to flee his uncle and the Prowler, idk - either way: Hobie fucking Brown is going to show up mask-off in the middle of this, and he is going to nod at Miles G. mid-fight, and Miles G. is going to be like ???????¿¿????, but he is absolutely definitely going to nod back

Y'all are going to make me finish shit bc now if these works don't materialize everyone will know my shame 🤣 thank you to @sunsetofdoom for the tag!
Posting another snippet from my longer stolitz AU (tentatively titled "A Place to Rest") bc I really like what I have so far and I need a reason to make myself continue with it 😅
Stolas came out of the kitchenette and stopped dead when he saw what Blitz was looking at. “Oh. Umm…” he said awkwardly, his entire face turning bright pink. “Those are something of a… well, a guilty pleasure of mine.” Blitz shrugged and returned the book to its place. “Eh, who am I to judge? Never got the point of reading when you're horny, but you know, different strokes.” He chuckled quietly at his own joke. “I suppose they bring me some comfort,” Stolas said, running his hand affectionately over the books’ spines. “Just imagining that relationships like that could exist somewhere.” “What, like the whole “one true love, love conquers all” bullshit?” He nodded, a little pensively. “That, and the passion of it all. The idea of someone desiring you so fervently that they can't help but surrender to it. Someone needing you, your body, in that way.” His cheeks turned, if possible, even pinker. “O-or something like that.” Blitz stared at him. Stolas was one of the most fuckable demons he'd ever seen. Those long, slender legs? That slut waist? That adorable blush whenever he got flustered? Fuck, he could hardly look at Stolas’s tail without wanting to yank on it as he railed him from behind. The idea that no one had yet bent him over a table and fucked him until his weird bird knees buckled seemed frankly criminal. “Fuck, you've been dating the wrong kind of guys, birdbrain.” “Well…” Stolas looked down at the floor, his brow furrowed. “I haven't actually… dated any guys. O-or even kissed one.” “You're shitting me.” “I was very isolated growing up, you see,” he said in a rush, as though to justify his own inexperience. “A-and I always knew I was going to have an arranged marriage, so it didn't seem–” Blitz didn't consider himself someone who was overly concerned with right versus wrong. But this injustice had clearly gone on long enough, and he knew exactly how to fix it. He closed the distance between himself and Stolas in a few swift strides, then grabbed the highest point of Stolas’s shirt he could reach and yanked him down to eye level. Stolas’s eyes widened in shock, but before he could react in any way beyond that Blitz had already pulled him into a kiss.
Tagging @blitzwhore, @bookishcatcafe, and anyone else who wants to share!

I'm back on locked tomb dragon age thoughts. I was curious as to what Houses you would assign da2 characters, or at least Bethany. I haven't played with her yet since I've only played mage hawke ( I will fix this soon) so I don't know her very well. Rn I'm thinking like Fenris, 8th (fucked up power dynamics), maybee varric fifth? since his whole thing is bucking tradition? not sure. Isabela, fourth? or maybe third or seventh? I think she'd like the gaudiness. idk I'm thinking
this is such a good question im sorry its taken so long to get back to you...
anyway for au reasons i do feel like all the hawke sibs should be from same house and I'm not 100% on that. @widgitart said 3rd which i really like with leandra's backstory (maybe she like. gave up her seat as 3rd heir to run off with Malcolm who is non-nobility from a less prestigious house but the amells never wanted to make gamlen their heir so there was a weird power vacuum until the hawkes came back to third? idk) but I'm also compelled by the idea of them as 4th house bc i think there's something thematically good with carver and beth both being so doomed so young and 4th's habit of sending teens to the front lines.
for varric i can definitely see 5th. tho honestly this is the house i know the least about lmao I'm just like hell yeah magnus and abigail house :) tho i could also make a case for 3rd and frankly. hear me out. 7th (its not that i think 7th cultural practices are similar to orzammar's cultural practices but i could see varric having a similar relationship with 7th house that he does to orzammar. very much "everyone is acting like this thing is cool. but its not its actually very fucked up!!)
fenris 8th for the fucked up potential and Sebastian and aveline both 2nd for obvious reasons (i know I'm messing up any hope of this being a canaan house au by assigning people who wouldn't be lyctor/cav pairs to the same house). i dont feel like bela is from the nine houses at all i feel like she's a cool space pirate doing her own thing out in the galaxy. hell yeah girlie.
i'm not really sure for merrill and anders. tho in my head they're both og lyctors so its kind of different. part of me wants to say 6th for anders since they're the closest to the circle kind of but then he would have been very bad 6th house member lmao. i feel like i could also see 5th but again i like. barely know anything about them lol. MERRILL is interesting to me there's a few ways it could go (i think there's strong cases for 6th and 7th) but i kind of want to say 9th since merrill practicing magic from a different tradition (as a blood mage but also generally as a dalish elf) could have some interesting ties with the way ninth is distanced from the other houses and regarded by other houses as being stuck in the past (which is. unfortunately how a lot of dragon age treats the dalish)

i find it so interesting that cleriths just have to Prove Their Ship with canon. they can't be normal and ship something noncanon without being haters and weird. literally zakkura has more weight than clerith imo its kind of funny 😭 and as a bisexual person i like to hc bi4bi cloti and zakkura being smth that couldve happened. mostly bc zack n tifa are characters that know cloud as he is. and while i do like aerith, her and cloud are just...bad because she projects zack onto him and he seems like !?!? confused, maybe like amused by her but he was def not in his right mind when they spend most of their time together bc of his identity crisis. yeah idk. this blog gives me a break from all the twitter dumbassery lol
I don't think he's amused by her. Confused, yeah, because it's in the ultis for the scenarios that pretty much every interaction they have he's suspicious or confused af, but at no point is there a description of him being happy to be around her. Even when they're going along the scrapped expressway the description never gets more than "they get along better" or "cooperate with each other". Cloud's described as a comrade or bodyguard so while this gets a lot of pushback from people who scream at me that they're friends, I honestly haven't seen anything describing them as friends. If someone has an official source correcting me then I'll stop saying it. Cloud tolerates her, but that doesn't make them buds. And he only knows her for 3 weeks before she dies and he's in the depths of an identity crisis so they never made friends for real, whereas he does become real friends with the rest of his team, so that's a distinctive difference between Aerith and everyone else. She's literally the only character in the game who doesn't really know Cloud and yet those idiots act like she's the only thing that matters.
Frankly, they can't even prove he and Aerith are friends, let alone more.

I do understand that irrationality is like. a Massive part of eating disorders but also dude this weird dissonance I can have between two sides of my brain bc of it. Like most obviously there are certain ed behaviors that I logically know do nothing to make you lose weight and in fact are extremely harmful. And yet my ed brain is like "okay but you should do it anyways just in case" and for some reason I listen to that side?? Like. The only reason I haven't developed a nicotine addiction in an attempt to restrict my appetite is money lol so instead I'm consuming easily 600 mg+ of caffeine a day and acting shocked when my heart feels like it's about to give out
And the other day I was like "yeah tbh I have no interest in trying to recover until I lose x pounds" which. 1. the idea that I'll be able to Recover once I've hit that goal when in reality it'll just immediately get replaced by another goal is hilarious. 2. isn't even true? Like yeah tbh I'm not interested in talking to my therapist abt it or whatever bc I frankly don't have time or money for treatment
But on a logical side it's like. Okay but I am sooo upset all the time. I haven't cooked in weeks bc there's no joy in it anymore and I used to love cooking. I rarely cross stitch now and when I did it was bc I was distracting myself with it. Everyone who talks to me is so sick of me bc I am constantly thinking about how miserable I am lmfao.

so hypothetically speaking, if i were to take on the 10 year backlog of ethubs content….. where would i even start?? its so much content that it’s totally overwhelming to me, and you seem like the only person on the planet to have sifted thru all of it, so i need ur wisdom 😭
trust me I have not and I know there are others (hi rio) but imo the key is to just. follow your heart. they are constantly bringing up old stuff and each other anyway so you will find new shiny things to go check out if you start anywhere. like, the whole reason I watched UHCs for the first time is bc of etho lying to say bdubs voted him out (not a UHC mechanic) and called him a son of a sweetheart in his LP. that said, I do have a masterpost of my fave bdubs mindcrack episodes which frankly is a lot of etho + bdubs, as well as a list of some of my favorite clips.
off the top of my head, suggestions to poke around in:
survival of the fittest, s1 and s2 - bdubs' death game with prox chat. the handcuff thing in s1. i shan't say any more. watch etho for s1, bdubs for s2.
nether hubs, mindcrack s3 and s4 - literally the s4 one is so good, and the episodes they build it in also cover some of the best death games 2.0 moments between them. chicken noodle soup. etho's POV for the first one but bdubs for the second, if you have to pick.
feed the beast call of duty pvp arena - one of the first but not the last arena project. highlights include bdubs ordering etho to strip and also them killing each other for fun.
speaking of arenas, the immediate sequel to the COD map is the fire and ice arena in mindcrack s4. etho builds a house outside the arena itself, stealing bdubs' block palette, and only an episode or two later getting bdubs to help and decorating his room across the hall with quote justin bieber posters unquote, causing at least zisteau to later ask if bdubs really is a belieber.
whatever the episode is that etho hires bdubs to kill someone for him and then showers him with meat in mindcrack s3
here is a secret: i have not yet watched The Trial. but it's foundational. all the etho vs. the b-team stuff is so funny especially how often he and bdubs are literally collabing on something at the same time.
UHCs - etho's POV of UHC 4 is classic and victorious. bdubs' POV of UHC 11 is the worst thing i've ever seen in my life, watch it immediately. there's other ones but i haven't seen most of them because i feel compelled to watch for Live Bdubs Reactions but it makes me want to throw up every time. because he is Insane.
OOGE - three different CTM maps, ymmv; this ranking is spot on, but i've also watched OOG (bdubs + guude) so like clearly my tolerance is not normal. watch kaizo caverns
horse courses, mindcrack s3 and s5, hermitcraft s8 - beyonc? and taylor swift horses of all time. you really just should watch etho or bdubs' first mindcrack seasons. s5 mesa one also features doc and genny and the running sick joke you will recognize from the s4 nether hub and last life.
those three entire episodes of etho helping bdubs with his spawner situation that's only in bdubs' POV, starting with bdubs going oh let's not bother him and then freaking out a little when etho volunteers himself to help. the first but not the last time etho says he wants to live in bdubs' basement.
hermitcraft s7. just the whole thing both their povs don't worry about it, you already know, etc. but personal soft spots of course for etho killing bdubs with kindness and the delivery boy saga, which references an ancient joke about pink shirts. also hcs8 overlapping last life and bdubs' very very blatant etho-obsession is just so much.
also of course the life series but instead of telling you what you already know please consider how bdubs signing his invoice "luv bdubs" to etho but reading it out loud as "love, professionally, bdubs" aired immediately after "he loves me! he cares. he does" happened. we don't talk about that weird little no homo enough
thank you for reminding me i need to finish the etho mindcrack best of list. i'm surely missing a ton of stuff but this is a rough approximation of my favorites and/or essentials. but seriously i have jumped around and finished some series, only watched a few select episodes of others, and straight up forgot to finish several more. be free! go nuts. (you will go nuts. this part is not optional)

📖 (that's me reading the fanfics in your brain that you haven't written, please tell me about one)
describing a fic i've daydreamed about but not written (yet)
s3 steddie lives in my head rent free, there's so many possibilities there and all of them get delightfully muddled up in my head; but here's a specific one i think about a lot
eddie works in one of the stores at starcourt (probably a music store, maybe a nerd store) and considering where it's placed he has to walk past scoops like 4 times a day (on his way to his shift, on his way to smoko, on his way back from smoko + on his way home) ((okay he doesn't actually have to walk past scoops for smoko, he could go out the back, but sue him for thinking steve harrington looks silly in his little sailor outfit, it's the highlight of his day))
and he's walking past one day when he happens to look up and find Steve Harrington in the midst of what seems to be a pretty brutal light saber fight with a middle schooler in a dorky cap. and Eddie feels his heart flutter and just thinks oh god no and gets the fuck out of there bc thinking steve looks cute is one thing but thinking he's cute as a person? no fucking way munson, get your shit together.
and then later, when he's closing up and getting ready to leave, he spots his two favourite scoops employees marching down the empty hall, arguing about something, with two children in tow. He's curious - so goddamn curious - but his uncle's got the night off and they have dinner plans with an awful western that he refuses to miss out on, so he leaves them to it and goes home.
and then, the next morning, he glances into scoops as he walks past on his way to work and. it's still closed. empty.
Eddie tries to brush it off, tries not to think about the fact that an icecream parlor wouldn't be closed in summer. Tries not to think about Steve and Robin in a half-empty mall the night before, clearly just getting off their own closing shifts.
The next morning, Scoops is open, but it's the weekend staff, looking irritable. Eddie heads to his own store and tries to shrug it off, even though it's weird and makes his skin itch uncomfortably. It's none of his business, and frankly he's glad.
Later that night though, after he's finished closing and has decided he's not ready to head home just yet, he goes for a walk on the upper floor, past the cinema because he likes the way the floor vibrates sometimes in time with the sound effects.
he's just lighting a cigarette when he hears a door bang open, followed by what could be arguing, and then the click of the water fountain. he's still just kind of paused, lighter held to the end of his smoke but no flame lit yet, when he overhears the "why is it called back to the future?" conversation and then watches as Steve gets shoved out into the open hallway.
Steve doesn't see him, gets distracted by the lights on the ceiling, doing a dorky little spin and whispering for Robin to come look in an awed tone. But Eddie sees him, in his stupid sailor outfit even though he wasn't at work, covered in blood and looking like someone tried to cave his face in.
Robin seems, thankfully, unharmed but they both seem pretty out of it and Eddie realises, worriedly, that they're both on something. Something strong by the looks of it. Before he can ask if they're okay, if they need him to call someone - maybe an ambulance - they both go really pale and bolt for the bathrooms, just about falling over each other trying to get through the door and he follows them.
He doesn't go inside, because he's not sure if he's welcome and he doesn't know them very well, so instead he stands right outside the door, anxiously smoking. He can hear them talking - not their actual words, but their voices - so he knows they're not dead, and then he sees the kids that were with them the night before come crashing out of the cinema, looking around wildly.
They're just marching past the toilets, lowering their voices to hissing when they spot Eddie, when the two in the bathroom start....singing? it's bonnie tyler, total eclipse of the heart, except the pair of them sound like muppets and the two kids are now shoving past him to throw open the door.
One of the kids, a girl with bright clothes and a cutting eyebrow raise, looks him up and down and juts out her chin. "Don't you have somewhere else to be?" She asks, and it's less of a question and more of a dismissal and yes Eddie is worried and confused but also kind of relieved because he doesn't really want to be involved in whatever the fuck is going on here.
So he shrugs, takes a deliberately slow drag of his cigarette, and walks away. He goes home, and fiddles with his guitar, and makes sure the kitchen is tidy for Wayne; and he tries his best not to think about Steve Harrington.

hii!! this might be kind of long (I apologize in advance!! ^^) but can I ask a few questions about your skill in writing? like how long did it take you to get to the level and style of writing you're at now? how did you figure out what you actually enjoy writing? how long have you been writing (or at least started taking a serious interest in it)? and do you have any tips that personally help you? bc I used to write a lot but I haven't had motivation as of late and, frankly, i feel like my skills have been lacking haha ^^;
Hi babes! ❤️ thank you so much for your question and I hope I answered everything right haha.
Honestly, I think it took me about 5-6 years I’d say to get where I’m at right now. I’m really bad at keeping progress so it may have been longer but I look back at my writings from even like 2 years ago and I think I improved a significant amount in terms of dialogue and with being more descriptive.
I think I realized I enjoyed writing when I was pretty young! I used to write fanfics when I was 14 on Wattpad lol. ( never posted them ) I’ve always loved reading so I think the transition between reading stories to writing my own was pretty natural and fast. Once I started reading more ( like around 10 to 12 years old ) I realized I loved making up stories in my head but I never actually wrote them down so once I tried to do that, I became addicted to just writing the ideas that crossed my mind. I’ve always been more of a character driven writer, I like focusing on the characters more so than the plot and their interactions are what I love writing most about.
I think I’ve been writing for about 6 years now! ( I started at 14 but I took a long break between the ages of 17-20 and I didn’t write much of anything during those years ) I really started taking it seriously when I turned 20 which was like almost 3 years ago, I became really immersed in building stories and plots, I started writing a lot of short stories that soon turned into more developed stories with more stable characters and backgrounds.
As for tips, I always feel weird about this because I think I’m a fairly new writer as well and I’m not fully confident in my writing yet either haha but I think one of the most important things is just writing a little every day. Even if you don’t feel motivated, pushing yourself to write even the smallest things regarding stories will help you subconsciously improve ! The more you write, the less it starts to feel like a chore and you slowly start to get into the habit of needing to write. I also encourage that if you find inspiration in anything, you write it down even if it doesn’t seem like it will go anywhere, I think writing ideas can always make room for more ideas to surface ! It keeps your head busy, even dreams if you can remember them. I also really advise to take things slow and write shorter paragraphs at a time even if you’re tempted to write a lot. I think writing shorter paragraphs keeps you more organized and focused on what you’re writing for the overall story and it prevents you from making more mistakes or overwriting. Also, don’t feel bad if you have been lacking motivation! I stopped writing completely for almost 4 years because I lost motivation and confidence but even the littlest things can make you jump back into writing if you truly have a passion for it. There’s nothing wrong with taking breaks if you feel burnt out, being in the right head space also has a lot do with motivation so I hope you take care of yourself ! Make sure to eat well, drink plenty of water and try to get significant rest. I hope this helped a little babes! ❤️🥰🙏🙏 have a lovely day.

Hey! I just saw your rant about first kisses and wanted to put in my 2 cents . . . I'm 24 and I haven't had my first kiss yet either lol. People make a big deal out of it, but at the end of the day, your first kiss should only be yours! If you want to make it special, make it special. If you don't care and just want to get it over with, that's fine too.
I fall into the former category and frankly have not met anyone I would like to give that away too, let alone let them touch me lol.
As long as you like your reasons for not having done it yet, that's all that matters! F*ck everyone else for judging you for not having done it yet.
Take care of yourself, fam 🙌 Your experience matters too and don't live up to anyone else's expectations of you 🥰
🥺 ty for this!! ik the thing i read only affected me so much bc i woke up in a weird mood so that sorta threw off my day but like… it’s genuinely SO weird to me when ppl try to set age limits on things like that
like lol i grew up being the person no one liked but my reasoning later became part “i’m waiting for someone i trust” part “i dont want anyone to touch me bc trauma” so idk i think im just waiting until i meet someone whos willing to wait for me, no pressure or anything.
its always weird when ppl try to reason shit out tho!!! like some ppl just arent interested in that certain thing either yet or at all?? its the same w some ppl about sex tbh ppl act like its weird to go through college and still be a virgin by the end of it like…. some ppl have work and classes prioritized? some ppl just dont want to do things yet. stop judging them for not having a first kiss/time/relationship when it’s literally no ones business??? >:/ some ppl i s2g…
you take care too!! ty again for this ask 💙 all i can rly do is try to combat those weird expectations when i can through writing and maybe make someone else feel comfy in having a similar situation

Ok see here's the thing. I haven't watched the series itself yet bc quite frankly the movie was just. Horrendous in ways I still go into a blind rage over. So full disclaimer all my complaints stem from there alone.
But like. Firstly you have a ""Good"" Cop character. Then you have a Bad Cop who receives literally zero repercussions for his actions. His fascist overbearing mother likewise is unpunished in any way, shape or form - save minor embarrassment over her son who she raised this way herself. As a funny little joke.
The one character who Consistently has the solutions to get the group places, Izzy, who In Fact is the entire reason the movie got anywhere in the first place (because Sunny never left town herself fsr??), is treated as a joke character, Pinkie but incredibly dumb or nonsensical and who needs "looked after" by the main character (see everyone's favorite 'iconic wlw song', it's never Sunny being looked out for). Wild part is a) she's Obviously smart and clever and creative and self-capable enough to wander the continent Alone with Nothing to help her, and b) she's also voiced by a non-white va which uh. Makes the narrative's treating her like a joke idiot look really dicey!! So got some ableist AND racially charged takes going on here!
Speaking of, Sunny gets to take all the credit when she has Izzy to thank for a lot of what happened. Yes, it's because of 'her' (her dad's) message in a balloon Izzy ever even looked for other ponies but. Sunny never reached out again or tried setting out herself, despite having that sureness and tenacity to do so? Izzy didn't even KNOW that other ponies were safe, she didn't have anyone in her village to tell her anything else, but she STILL took that chance to go looking, risks herself and meets Sunny. So Sunny can then take the credit and get alicorn'd or whatever.
You could say it's that alicorns need to inspire others or whatever but Sunny clearly wasn't doing that to anyone else, because her speech flopped Every Time, including when she was put at risk of bodily harm in the beginning. Inspiring One pony does not a princess make.
(And yes, somehow that same canned speech inspired everyone once her house was destroyed but. Given how people didn't care in the beginning of the movie when she was put in direct danger, I really don't think her house being destroyed should have made an impact)
I could honestly keep going, about how everyone was so bland bc they acted so 'staged', never moving or speaking independently if it wasn't Their Turn; or how there were attempts at characterization that had Zero Payoff and thus seemed weirdly shoved into the writing for no reason (Hitch's dancing didn't have any impact to the story, Izzy makes comments on auras seemingly just to paint her as weird and laughable) ; or primarily how no one has any Flaws, and you can argue they technically do, but none that they get narratively held responsible for!
Actually I will keep going on that last point - in the g4 movie, characters mess up, and get narratively 'punished' for! Either drawing attention of the villains or getting offers of help rescinded (thanks specifically to Twilight! The protagonist!) Their actions and shortsightedness lead to direct consequences, and others around them also recognize this and typically disapprove if only for a moment.
The g5 movie... really does not do this. There's no 'punishment', the rejection and loss the characters experience aren't because they messed up. It's only to show how Tragic they are or to move the plot along (like the house). In fact, there's one instance of genuine criticism - Hitch being upset that Sunny is purposefully endangering his job because his livelihood isn't as important as her ideals - and tbh, given he's a cop, that really doesn't need to be a concern - but that's retracted and used to paint him as wrong for ever doubting her, despite the fact that realistically? She was prioritizing poorly!
No one listened to her and everyone rejected her tired speeches, and that's common knowledge by that point. Her choosing One More Tired Speech over her friend's job and reputation, when she's only ever seen failure, isn't her making some 'for the greater good' choice. That's stubbornness and pride speaking, no matter how well-intended, and she put herself and her friend at risk for a pointless gesture. And she gets ultimately rewarded for this via the rest of the movie proving her right, and awarding her the role of princess.
Anyways. The movie was awful and if anything felt like pro-cop propoganda cleverly disguised as pro-activist sentiment, and while it's been a bit I watched this movie three times to break a lot of this down and I can keep going if needed.
Idk about the series, but the g5 movie sucks and honestly is horrifying to see as accepted by the fandom, because in terms of writing and in terms of meaning it is literal shit.

It’s genuinely super concerning that a lot of what people are defending as “queer complexity” literally is just oppressive societal stuff with a queer coat of paint… literally every trans man obsessed with being/fucking lesbians is revealed to be a horrific transmisogynist bc their entire ideology is “AFAB solidarity” and misogyny but pretending to be something progressive
no literallyyyy and really weird how sometimes the very same people have such an aggressive reaction to being asked to articulate their relationship to transmisogyny (actually that person I screenshotted in the same post they were like "I do not identify as tme because I am visibly trans [masc] I face transmisogyny") will also then act like being afab or amab is like this really inherent truth about u... all of this trans men can be butch lesbians type nonsense is essentially teetering on the transphobic premise that like trans men are basically women really bc frankly you look insaneeee claiming that a cis man can be a lesbian or whatever no one is doing that 😭 its acceptsed bc of an understanding on some level that trans men are not Really men
plus it feels very misogynistic that for a lot of them the thought process looks like "I first understood myself as a masculine woman before realising im actually a man. therefore i actually know what it's like to be a masculine woman & can assume masculine lesbians are all just, like me, men who haven't realised they are men yet" which is INSANELY misogynistic and like such a typical man moment tbh... the obsession with putting women in our place and speaking over our experiences especially when they are also so protective of #mlm only and specific oppression faced by men or whatever.their attitude to transmisogyny in general as well is just giving MRA who's like "um but men are more likely to lose custody battles!!!" the trans remix. and half the problem is how many people on this site refuse to actually learn what transmisogyny and terf ideology really look like so they can just perpetuate the exact same ideas w inclusive language and claim opposing them makes u the terf because terf =not including everyone in everything ever apparently

hello, do you have a guilty pleasure bl? mine is waterboyy, this show is so bad but really enjoy watching it once in a while.
hi anon! do I have A guilty pleasure bl?? literally half of my favorite bl shows ARE guilty pleasures lmaooo. let's go:
love sick: this show isn't bad AT ALL, yet being the first bl there are so many elements that aged like milk. it's long, it can be frustrating, the acting can be wishy-washy at times, the production quality is garbage & the writing outside of phunnoh (which are the only characters whose story came from the original novel so the director had to follow that) freaking sucks, it’s got so many tropes I hate like the evil girlfriend & the “I don’t like guys but I like him” tropes, yet... the characters are so damn lovable, phunnoh are still the healthiest ship I've ever seen in bl to this day, the friendships are amazing & the slice of life elements of this series have frankly never been matched since... it’s no wonder love sick is still in the heart of so many people, bc while it’s bad... it’s also so, SO good.
my tee: this one is definitely my number 1 guilty pleasure since love sick is still kinda good, bc this show? trash. the writing is the worst, the camero shots & sound are ATROCIOUS, there's homophobia, weird uncurable illnesses, and the show takes a turn halfway through from a happy light-hearted romcom to a tragic love story... HATED IT. drake & frank in it though??? actual perfection. firstly the chemistry is incredible, still one of my favorite ever & I legit praise it at least once a month so I'll stop at that. but also drake's acting in that show???? absolutely incredible. he honestly doesn't get praised enough for it bc it's still his best role to date imo. the raw honesty & beauty he brought to mork cannot be matched & no one would've been able to play that character as well as him. I became a drake stan since then & haven't looked back lol. so yeah truly drakefrank are the only thing that saved this show & I love them so much for it!
what the duck: once upon a time when only 8 bl shows aired a year, what the duck was my favorite for like a good 6 months lol. and this is exactly a repeat from my tee, the show is absolute trash & nothing is good apart from popoat, a ship that I adored. there's something about them that captured my heart & I know it's in big part the push & pull between them & the beautiful pining oat has for pop. they were just so good together & the sequel WRECKED ME. the day before my birthday too lol. 3 years later & I'm still mad :') that being said that show is also fucking funny, like... the first ep is still the funniest start to a thai series I've seen!
love poison: I really liked the first season of this show, and even the second season wasn't that bad (y'all know how much I hate sequels so that's saying something lmao!) I really enjoy series that take place in the isan region of thailand, it's such a different culture from what we see in most shows that take place in bangkok, and I really didn't mind the musical elements (whereas usually I tend to struggle with musical shows, kinda ironic considering glee was my favorite show for years kvfduhyui), in fact I really enjoy luktung music in shows for some reason. the chemistry wasn't half bad and the story was really fun & entertaining. that being said the production quality is SHIT, the acting is meh & the writing isn't the best either. so that definitely makes it a guilty pleasure show!

2021 Fic Year Wrap Up Meme
Number of fics: 11
Number of Unique Fandoms: 4-6 (Romeo and Juliet/Romeo es Julia/Quebec 2006 Romeo et Juliette, Inheritance cycle, A Song of Ice and Fire, Six of crows
Number of Unique Pairings: 8-ish?
Total Number of Words: 30253
# Gen: 1 # Het: 3 # Slash: 6 # Fem: 1
#G: 2 # PG-13: 7 # M: 2
Looking back, did you write more fics than you thought you would this year, less than you thought, or about what you predicted? I defaulted on everything I signed up on so less lmao.
Where did you publish/archive your stories?AO3 
What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted in January? Tris/Theon, probably
Did you take any writing risks this year? Not particularly honestly. hell is full was a treat written in two days on a fairly weird subject matter so maybe that?
Do you have any writing goals for the new year? Publish my first finished multichapter with regular updates, be eligible for Yuletide again maybe
What’s your favorite story this year? Not the most popular, but the one that makes you the happiest. but peace still came I'll give him the same
Okay, NOW your most popular story? trickster. Really weird writing in a large fandom for once
Story of yours most underappreciated by the universe, in your opinion? but peace still came I'll give him the same! Everyone always says they want more space for female characters yet don't want to read about a 13 year old girl committing murder suicide, curious
Story that could have been better? Oof caged beasts. I really lost mementum there between the recip being a noncommenter and trying to finish another treat alongside it
Most fun story to write? three boys a boat and a damning tear! Tris' pov is just so breezy and delightful
Story with single sweetest moment? Mhhh probably love's heavy burden
The story that made you cry? I don't think any of these did during the process honestly. Possibly Duty when I first drafted it in my teens bc projecting sad unrequited love
Most "holy crap, that's wrong, even for you" story? love's heavy burden, again. Oops
Sexiest story? disputed victory
Hardest story to write? love's heavy burden 
Easiest story to write? I wrote trickster in like an afternoon lmao
Most unintentionally telling story? Frankly none were heavy on projecting this year. Maybe two boys a boat and a damning tear is the one who splays the id on the table the most
Story you haven't yet written, but intend to *shoves like 20k of Ironborn kids fic under the bed*
