#but it’s like… a SUB hyperfixation

[ziglikesrain]

me writing a fic set in a town in new mexico that no one has ever heard of but i become slowly more obsessed with knowing everything about the town (that i’ve never been to) so i can write it well and it starts to weave its way into casual conversation and all my friends are like hey why the fuck are you so hooked on this irrelevant ass town in new mexico.

Idk if it’s the auditory processing issues or the pure AuDHD hyper fixation, but I got So Excited about watching the new Dungeon Meshi episode, that it took me over 14 minutes to realize I had put on the sub and not the dub.

It wasn’t even the language difference that tipped me off, it was me registering that Senshi’s voice sounded different/ “Hold on, that’s not SungWon…. Wait, it’s in fucking Japanese.”

Fell back in love with the Kievnauchfilm version of the Alice in Wonderland stories recently, it easily remains my favorite film adaptations. Alisa is my darling daughter and the multimedia animation style is so cool and suits the surrealist/absurdist nature of the original works hand-in-hand.

Don't know how better to describe it, but the artstyle is so yummy. The colors are so rich and it with the linework of the more detailed shots scratch the back of my brain just right. I'd make a delicious cocktail out of it and drink it if I could.

Fic idea: dom Astarion, except that he's... not bad at it, as such; as always, he's very attentive and generous and focused on his partner and clearly genuinely wants to give them what they want! But there are all these little hints that something isn't quite right; small gaps, hesitations like he's not sure how to handle something that's come up (shit they're panicking I need to get them out of those ropes fast, where's there a knife I think I have one in the other room I'll just go and get it), just... little ways in which he's what his partner would typically read as careless/neglectful/wildly unsafe/emotionally crushing/etc. And while he'll always course-correct if they tell him they would have preferred it if he'd handled things some other way, eventually it hits them that... oh. Yeah. Right, he's literally never had a good example of this sort of thing before, in fact he has almost certainly had a lot of very bad examples, and he's making up half of it as he goes along, isn't he?

And then they help teach him what it's supposed to be like by switching places! And Astarion gets to also learn at the same time that maybe his tastes in bed are a little more broad than he'd previously realised (you will never convince me that man who has had to spend centuries performing for his partner/audience when it comes to sex would not fucking love to stop feeling like he has to be constantly calculating and monitoring and managing his partner's reactions, as long as it was handled sensitively and correctly).

The GaaNaru Letters (part 1 of ?)

AN: this might not be anything, but its been floating in my head. It's a tumblr post instead of going on Ao3 because it's lower commitment rn.

Dear Gaara,

Heh, it's weird calling you dear when we only kinda know each other. But Iruka-sensei said that's how letters are supposed to start. This is my first time writing to someone else- all my friends are in my village! Anyway, I just wanted to see how you are after that asswhooping I gave you! That's not me bragging, by the way. It's just. You seemed lonely. Like I told you back then, I know what that pain is like. I guess I want to help you with it. And I think you and me have something else in common, too. Do you know what I mean? Anyway, everyone knows that the Sand village only attacked the Leaf because Orochimaru-bastard was manipulating you, so I don't think we have to be enemies anymore. That snakey bastard killed the Third Hokage, but I heard he killed your Hokage too? I hope you get this and write back, maybe?

Love From, Uzumaki Naruto

Uzumaki Naruto,

I have been informed that honorifics are not required at the beginning of letters if one does not wish to include them. Unless this is one of the cultural differences between the Leaf and the Sand, you should not feel obliged to use "dear" for me. This is also my first time writing a letter to someone. I am not sure what to say, but I will answer your questions.

I think I do know what you mean, if you are referring to that red chakra that you summoned. Do you have a monster within you as well? It is difficult to imagine.

Orochimaru did indeed kill our kage, though the Sand Village has a Kazekage, rather than Hokage. Rather than in a great battle such as befell your leader, the Kazekage seems to have been murdered on the sly. That man was my father. I am told that most children mourn their fathers. I have not mourned anyone since Yas I was small, and I see no need to change that. Perhaps if my father did not try to assassinate me so often, I would feel differently. At any rate, my siblings are too afraid of me to press the issue.

You, however, are not afraid of me. Despite the damage I wrought on your friends and your village, you are still reaching out. I find myself wondering why? Perhaps we are not actively enemies, but we are not allies either. What use am I to you? Why should it matter to you that I am lonely?

Why did you weep for me, Uzumaki Naruto?

From,

Gaara of the Desert

Dear Gaara,

I already said- I know what your kind of loneliness is like, and I want to help! It's not some big complicated thing. You don't have to have a use to me, you know? Except maybe to talk about stuff.

Like the monster thing. This is kind of a secret so I probably shouldn't confirm or deny that I have a giant demon fox sealed inside me, but I want to tell you. I've never met anyone like me before, you know? Even if yours is different, with the sand and the crazy laughing and all. Mine doesn't laugh, he's just mean and grumpy and scary. When did you first know about yours? Have you always been able to use its power?

I'm sorry about your dad. Not that he's dead, but that he was an asshole! And I guess that he's dead too. I can see how that would be complicated. Did he try to kill you because of your demon? It's not how I would do things. I don't know who my parents are, or were, but I hope they wouldn't do that to me. I think parents are supposed to support their kids no matter what!

I guess it makes sense for your siblings to be scared of you when you do scary things, but I heard you apologize to them back then. So if you're trying to do better by them, they should give you a chance!

I'm going on a journey with Pervy Sage soon to look for our next Hokage-- whoever it is better meet my approval, because I'll be the next Hokage after that, believe it! And I want to get the job from someone awesome. Anyway, if I'm not in the village I'm not sure how to get mail so if I don't reply for a while it's cuz I'm out there being awesome!

Also- didn't forget what you did. You tried to hurt my friends, and that's not okay. But I kicked your ass about it already, so as far as I'm concerned it's all settled. So don't keep thinking there's something bad between us!

Sincerely (This is a new sign off I learned. It's nicer than From!), Uzumaki Naruto

PS: Iruka-sensei said you're right about the "dear" thing, but your name looked kinda naked if I didn't write it, so I'm gonna keep using it, OK?

Uzumaki Naruto,

Your answers leave me with more questions, but I will continue asking them as long as you are amenable.

My demon is the One-tail, Shukaku. He does laugh a lot, though it is not a pleasant sound. I have always known about him, for his voice has always been in the back of my mind. Furthermore, I was told outright when I had a strong enough grasp of language. Your question implies that you have not always known about yours. You called it a demon fox- could it be the Nine-tails? Is he truly so quiet that you could be unaware of him? As for tapping into Shukaku's abitilities, that has not always been conscious on my part. He is often eager to emerge and inflict is insanity upon others, so if I fall asleep he will take over on his own.

Needless to say, I am seldom allowed to sleep.

Shukaku is one reason my father tried to kill me. The other is that I killed my mother the day I was born. My existence has always been fueled by blood. I am not sure if I can change that. Can my siblings be blamed for resenting me?

Are genin often involved in the selection of political figures in the Leaf? Perhaps that is more efficient. In the Sand, it seems that the council just sits and talks in circles. My team's sensei, Baki, has taken a leadership position there, but has not assumed the title of Kazekage. I assume it is because the council wants him free to keep an eye on me. They are not sure what I will do. I am not sure either. For now, I have tried to appease them with silence. I do not wander at night, and I have not hurt anybody since our return from the Leaf. I have kept to myself. I can't say if it is doing any good. Temari and Kankuro speak gently to me, but I see the fear in their eyes if I move unexpectedly.

You keep saying that you "kicked my ass." No one has ever done that before. Yet I seem to recall you being unable to move at the end as well. Did I "kick your ass" too?

It is interesting that you view our fight as an instrument of peace between us two. Perhaps if I let Kankuro hit me, he will stop jumping whenever I speak.

I like your new sign off, so I will use it.

Sincerely,

Gaara of the Desert

PART 2

[whoblewboobear]

Yall finally got me with the j2jace brain worms. I want those twinks inside of each other. I want them both laying in bed fighting off the post nut clarity of the psychosexual implications of them sleeping together now. J2 wanting to talk about it and Jace shoving it deep down bc he JUST started to enjoy j2’s company instead of being jealous or offput by him.

Instead he just shuts j2 up by fucking him until he’s too far gone and the only word he can say is Jace. Real ego boost for the both of them too 💖

I'm rewatching Yugioh 5D's again (because my hyperfixation has gotten that bad lol) and it's interesting how much of it I'm seeing in a new light now that I'm much older. The last time I watched this, I was in my late teens. Now, as an adult, seeing Leo's reaction to meeting Yusei is so cute. He's just a kid who meets this cool adult turbo duelist and desperately wants to be seen as cool too. He's like "you're a duelist? I am too! I want to be king some day. Do you like the current king? I do!" And when Yusei shows little interest and tries to leave he's like "wait! I (my sister) got picked to be in this tournament, isn't that cool?" And then he tries dueling him. It's just such a kid thing to meet an older person you think is cool and be annoying trying to impress them. I liked Leo when I was younger, but as an adult and understanding what he's doing makes me appreciate him so much more. It's just nice that in the yugioh season with a mostly adult cast, they actually made the kid character act like a kid. I love this show

What do you mean we have a test this friday???

[bright-haired-teacher]

wow sure love to come in on a monday morning to find a bunch of my shit having been moved around by some rando who was apparently using my room this weekend without my fucking knowledge.

like first of all: my monitor setup is complicated. i don't need people fucking it up.

second of all: it is very possible (likely, in fact) that i left sensitive information up on my screen or lying around since i wasn't expecting anyone to be in here!

third of all: it is very frustrating to come in on a fucking monday and have to put my room back together because whoever the fuck was in here didn't have enough respect for me or my space to put it back themselves.

now i'm just in a horrible mood which is not the vibe for a monday! this could all be avoided if you'd tell me someone's gonna be using my room (or better yet - ASK) because i could have at least straightened up my desk and/or put stuff away instead of leaving my usual controlled chaos that other people seem to find off-putting. (to which i reply - it's not your space, fuck off.)

ugh.

i got distracted halfway through the day so my april fools mythology posting was limited but i will still talk about general mythology of various flavors if so inquired about.

[vilevampire]

I need to stop doing things related to my hyperfixations/special interests so close to my fucking bedtime lest I lose my fucking marbles

[kienansidhe]

i cant wait till my leaky memory forgets most of endwalker so i can experience it for the first time again bc that storyline rewired my brain and cured my depression and i need another hit

[fuckdamn]

i know that almost bloody looking neutral warmish reds without even a hint of blue tone are the best lip colors for me and i wish there was a foolproof way to reverse engineer that and know my color season for sure but also when it comes to makeup knowing *that* stuff works is slightly more important than knowing *why* also i’m pretty sure i’m a soft autumn anyway
