#but a pretty asshole

2D is kinda...insufferable

2-D HC

2-D is insufferable. It's honestly Murdoc's fault (stop being a gay whore and calling him pretty, Mudz).

Tall, blue hair, no eyeballs—it's distracting the fans. More specifically the ones he's met on the street at the moment. Of course Murdoc is trying his best to be a confident asshole as per usual, but 2-D can smell the old man's brains overworking itself.

While 2-D ponders his bandmate, he hardly notices when Murdoc and the fans switch from the topic of Plastic Beach to the way 2-D looks in his tiny shorts. Instead of talking about music, they're distracted by the fact that 2-D's thinking face is so pretty and angular.

"Mudz?" 2-D says still stuck in his head, giving the group quite a shock. "...You're thinking too much."

Murdoc silently regretted indulging in the fans' fantasies. He couldn't believe this tall asshole was making his heart pump like a boiling pot of soup.

"2-D, sod off or so help me I will run you over."

In his usual fashion, 2-D smirked down at Murdoc, "Okay, Mudz."

Murdoc could hear the two fans snicker at them. His ears and cheeks went warm and he wished he were of Russell's complexion. He couldn't even say anything.

Ignoring the fans and 2-D, Murdoc stormed off, "I'm leaving!"

"Where are y'going?"

"HOME!"

anti-shoutouts: to google for nerfing their reverse image search with google lens (seriously-CHANGE IT BACK), to twitter for making it almost impossible to use the website after I deleted my account, and to basically no one on tik tok (or any other social media site for that matter) for crediting artists because that made tracking down the original posts so much harder than it needs to be :')

Ppl going "waaahh unpopular opinion but Alice is kind of annoying and obnoxious and I don't think I'd like be her friend irl" is so funny to me bc like.

God forbid a cast of characters be multifaceted and have actual flaws and unpleasant aspects other than "grr angsty hero" and "whoops i'm so clumsy". Sometimes character dynamics and arcs need to be prioritized above "who would i personally be niceys with irl"

2. bro just WAIT until you hear about season 1 jon lol

thinking about c!dream earlier on in the server just makes me sad man. like, c!dream has never been a perfect character. he's always been flawed, always been a bit of an asshole, always had control issues. but also he knew that. he tried to work on that. he and tommy were friends, despite being flawed people with their own issues that would bump into conflicts because of the ways that they differed. c!dream tried, god, he tried; he wasn't even on the server, when the drug van happened, and walked into a place with someone who was practically a stranger to him building a wall and calling for war and having turned half the people dream knew against him, apparently, for no reason that he could've known at the time, and he had looked straight at tommy and tubbo and asked if that was what they really wanted when wilbur told them that there was no such thing as dual citizenship. he tells tommy when he has to sell a disc for spirit's leather even though tommy had surrendered the discs to him at the end of the revolution because he knows it'll matter to him. he and tommy truce, multiple times, and c!dream gets tangled into conflicts that literally don't involve him repeatedly and gets targeted Because He's Dream repeatedly and he plays along with that trivia contest and he gives gifts to fundy and tommy after terrorizing them a little for fun and he plays along with the dreamon thing and he keeps getting pulled into fights that weren't his but tries to make them a little more fair when they get him involved. he fucks around with tommy and they have fun, they're friends, and when he and wilbur look like they're in danger dream is one of the first to find them and lend them real, practical, valuable aid. he calls himself "Big D" in that book and he tells the man that wrote him as a tyrant that he doesn't want to be a villain in the story anymore. he asks tommy if he's okay, and watches that kid's back when he walks alone and unarmed into manberg, and fights with him at the battle of the lake and all of that is thrown back in his face as being a lie. half the intial community structures that exist were built by him; the community house, the nether portal and hub, the prime path. during a time where every other piece of leverage got burned or killed (rip the casualties of the pet war), dream was kind of known for being one that could be fairly traded with, that would minimize permanent damage. the kills in the final control room were originally to strip lmanburg of their gear, which he had kept in a chest so it could be returned to them after the war.

like no c!dream isn't perfect at the beginning of the server. yes he's kind of a jerk sometimes, kind of an asshole sometimes, kind of neurotic most of the time. but god dammit like c!dream does try to mitigate the worst of his control issues, when they flare up early on; the initial disc war ends with tommy getting his discs back as well as a stack of diamonds, in exchange for a netherite chestplate. he's a flawed character and he's still someone pretty friendly on the whole to most of the server, he's also kind of just known for being a little weird. he gives gifts randomly. he fixed creeper holes, and houses, and went along with bits. like whatever im a c!drolo c!dream woobifier and i admit it lol but for as much evil as he ends up doing, pretty damn consistently early on, he's . friendly? kind? funny? helpful? their neighbor. their friend. c!dream isn't just some stranger that flew off the handle; he's someone they knew and lived with who had his actions taken in bad faith because the goddamn story said so and kept fucking trying anyway until he believed the lie too. like he was just a guy!! a guy they knew and lived with!!! like my god

Had a dream some youngling/teen kept bothering Mace Windu and calling him “Windy” to piss him off. She also told him that the whole temple calls him that (lying) Mace asked Yoda about it and Yoda confirmed that it’s true (lying).

i really don't know how to feel about fics/aus where it turns out that sj's treatment of lbh is his own fault because he didn't speak up about issues with other disciples, genuinely misbehaved etc and also later (as bingge) lied about how much he actually got punished and in truth it wasn't any more than any other disciple, and that sj didn't know about the fake manual, when all of this is explicitly against canon.

yqy adresses this when sy wakes up, telling sqq to stop being so mean to lbh. in the sj extra, he himself says that lbh should have died a long time ago bleeding from the seven apertures due to the fake manual. sy says that pidw explicitly states that lbh was punished WAAAY more than any other disciple, and in those conditions obviously noone would tell their teacher about being bullied??

idk i understand altering canon for the sake of telling a story but... somehow it feels like a disservice to sj's character to ignore canon and water him down for the sake of making his redemption easier. and villifying lbh, which is what these fics inevitably end up doing, is also messed up - he was around 11 when he joined cqm. that's a CHILD. no matter how you look at it, sqq's "treatment" of lbh is neglect at best, horrible abuse at worst, and in modern times it would put him in jail faster than you could blink. giving him a realistic redemption arc is difficult, if not impossible, but if you truly love him with all his flaws and faults, isn't it worth the effort?

i don’t care abt ships but i think shipping tf2 spy with any of the other mercs is objectively funny bc like. imagine being scout and already having to deal with the fact that this french asshole is maybe your actual absentee dad only to find out he also ditched your mom to bang one of your sweaty coworkers.

been putting together a new AU using the new set.. hehe <3

i've been seeing people pair idolkasa with the cyberpunk set!! and i thought i had a fun take on it. cyberpunk dystopia my beloved.

the world is very much focused on consumerism, content, and essentially selling yourself for the fame. pretty much everything that cyberpunk dead boy critiques.

tsukasa is an idol and his manager is emu. the otori family owns a whole bunch of stuff, but emu particularly likes the performance side of their businesses- idol work! she likes seeing smiles on people's faces. tsukasa on the other hand.. is mostly in it for the fame. he's pretty much just like main story tsukasa- he's forgotten his initial goal, completely swept up by the thought of becoming more and more popular. except, unlike in the main story, tsukasa doesn't reorient himself as quickly and gets lost in it. emu has kind of noticed this about him, and she will try to get him to be more normal about everything, but he just ignores that.

on the ruinene side of things, they're against everything the world is set up for! they are sort of fugitive-like characters who constantly interrupt the market as much as they can. this is done through messing with data servers and tech and stuff. rin is nene's AI that she uses to assist her in her hacking things, meanwhile rui is the one who goes out on foot to cause trouble.

as all my AUs go... ruikasa end goal. rui probably starts targeting the idol industry as the catalyst of this AU, setting his sights on the otori's highly successful idol, tsukasa. such a shame he is so pretty, though... you can do it, rui!
