little things abt astarion i adore:
• just says the most poetic things about completely innocuous and mundane aspects of life
• forgets he’s literally dead and that we know that he’s dead before making jokes out of it
• says the most out of pocket batshit insane things and then looks at us like we’re the weird ones
• has fun joking with us about his ways of seduction — he likes that we’re already in on his plan and taking it in stride
• “you couldve been less obvious about it” meanwhile he can’t keep a straight face to save his life and is so bad at hiding how he feels, no matter the circumstance

hhhh it just hit me that we still dont know how long ruin takes place after security breach. so how long did cassie spend thinking that gregory, her best friend who went missing, was probably dead? and that one day when she got a message from said friend, she felt a glimmer of hope. she went through an abandoned mall and quite literally put down her favorite animatronic just to be tricked and fall to her death.

i like. can barely read this. barely any mention of why these disorders develop, how they actually work internally (when that was mentioned in other chapters)
literally multiple times like 'these specific ones are super problematic' (literally used the term problematic.
and some of it is just plain wrong. or works off of a philosophy that not everyone subscribes to. like... ugh. its just.
they talk about personality disorders like if you met someone with one you woudl know immediately and like you shoukd never talk to them or theyll ruin your life.
like theyre describing bpd like these people are like monster time bombs or people with ASPD like they dont have an internal world at all.
like i just dont think 'meanness' or 'lying' should be the basis of any diagnosis. I understand why they are included but so much of behavior is influenced by circumstance.
theres also like, I just noticed this (and the next chap is on therapy so maybe theyll talk about it there) but theres like literally no mention of medications or therapy for ANY of these disorders.
it just makes me so fucking. like.

re: last reblog: i hate how like, rotted by fandom discourse some proshipper types get to the point that they turn discussions of like, actual CSEM and CSA into being about "antis" before anything else. had an exchange in r/fanfiction a week or so ago where the topic of tumblr's CSEM issue (especially prior to the NSFW ban) came up and someone's response was "you mean CSAM or drawings?". and i was like "ok i cant speak for the commenter above but there was actual, literal CSEM on tumblr it was very much a problem it's literally been reported on, which is probably why they went with the nuclear option re: NSFW content" and their response was just like. "uwuwuwu antis were reporting people's works as CP". like i get this is r/fanfiction so antis are bound to come up but come on.

once again i have basket of compliments that you will listen to without feeling overwhelmed or under selling yourself
idk why i have this hunch that while you're normally a confident bean but whenever someone compliments you you're just like pen.exe has stopped working i need a table to hide under
1) sausaude (also the spellings of these are definitely gonna be wrong) -
the entirety of it just i was screaming on the inside. it's SO GOOD.
IT'S SO GOOD THAT I WANT TO DO A DANDWAT PRANAM FOR IT, don't worry I'm not gonna do it
also if you're worried that the break you took made your writing weak or something. don't. that was a masterpiece you wrote.
but esp the end parts like when sirius finally spoke. and just i for .2 seconds wanted them to reconcile cause they have such a history among them and they're the last ones standing BUT then i remembered it's because of that fucking history they can't cause Remus knew padfoot. knew James. knew their bond. and then this happened so no remus will never get padfoot again and they will live on like shattered glass with a piece missing (James) so they can never fix it. they burned too bright and their sun was taken away and now they're just planets with no sun left to orbit
2) notes app drabbles, the entire series like i just— can't tell you how many times i randomly go back to it to read it in middle of night, whenever i want the oomf and saltiness and it's to a point that i now have lines memorised. and boy didn't that hurt? shouldn't he be used to betrayal from that corner in room hits like a gold mine at 3am idk what to say and also the one where harry says (politely) stfu mrs Weasley.
3) shovel talk!!!! i love it so so so much cause it's the quiet arrogance that does it for me. I'm such a sucker for that. and lily going from confidence to pro max to oh I'm talking sirius back and actually feeling that talk which si retroactively hilarious.
4) I FALL TO PIECES WHEN I'M WITH YOU
so we all are all fucking emotional whores here and definitely not prudes so you know that i have definitely read some serious explicit shit with the straightest face ever.
idk what it is about that fic BUT ISTG I BLUSH LIKE A TEENAGE GIRL WHENEVER I'M READING IT AND YOU SAID IT WAS YOUR FIRST TIME WRITING MATURE/EXPLICIT
bhai i really really could not tell that not kidding comes in top 5 best explicit work I've ever read . it's that good for me.
5 ) i can't just lost all of them na, but it's true like i love little tiny things in all of them that i try to type we'll be here for 375849 hours—the descriptions of tattoos/ sirius's lip ring (which knowing about yours is ehfjfjfjn)/ harry liking smell of cigarette/ RANI/ labor of love and that vivid scene of just a kid on counter mashing potatoes while you add masalas.
you invoke imagination like no other.
FOUNDATIONS OF DEACAY I'm so so looking forward to that cause it's intresting so see what harry will do next
ash you— i— i’m so??? incoherent!??
(stop it stop calling me out, i’ve had people physically restrain me while giving me a compliment because i break out in literal hives and even reading this kept making me hide behind my hands and curl my toes because!!!!)
also!!!! the fact that ur fav fics (saudade, shovel talk, fall to pieces) r literally the ones closest to my heart is so—we’re on the same wavelength fr.
ur way too sweet to be real, ash. i don’t even know what to do w myself rn. pen.exe really has stopped working. needs a reboot.
Tell me what you love about my writing
