They way we all be fighting for our life whenever nintendo openly decides they care about that timeline again

honestly, I am a little tired of nintendo's attitude. They do not seem to care a whole lot about their lore or the characterization of their world (they = management, I'm sure individual gamedevs do care and fight for their life and lose on the regular) given they appear to have outsourced it, which, I mean, it's fine it's their world, it's their game, they cultivate whichever audience suits them best. But for them to put out a new updated timeline that you can buy for money, after everything? I don't know, it's starting to feel borderline contemptful to me.

Is it a game that cares about narrative or not? If yes, then you're doing a rather poor job of that imo. If not, then stop pretending like you put any thought into this, and stop milking the investment of old fans while failing to understand what a lot of them are asking for.

I think I'm just going to sidestep a lot of what Nintendo is doing and hope for enough pushback that they change their strategy, which I don't assume will happen given there will always be people to be invested in Zelda games. In the meantime, I'll hope for a smaller game, extremely extraordinarily ignore the movie, and do my own thing.

Ok so yes walking all day yesterday made me want to die and I'm still sore but I think if I'm still up in 2 hours I'm just gonna throw in the towel and walk to this bagel place 20 minutes away that looks nice

This move has definitely shown how many ppl do not like Steven.. also 25 employees is wayyy too much. They could of easily layed off some ppl and cut budgets.

oh, yeahhhhhhh. 25 employees and yet not a single one must have any experience in PR. at all. i also don't see how a lot of their series need that many people. that number is questionable when their shows can be divided into: guys go places; and: guys talk to each other at one place.

and i get the sense that people think this was all Steven's idea. and his alone. there's a lot of reasons to not like Steven (and the same could be said for Shane and Ryan, tbh), but putting all the blame on him for this feels a bit misplaced.

but tbh, i am thoroughly enjoying all the Tesla jokes LMAO

man riverdale season 7 is like Bad bad. not only bad by regular tv standards but bad by the special riverdale criteria. i can get wanting to hard reboot your franchise after the fuckery in the middle seasons but the thought of doing that just to make something infinitely less interesting and off the wall than what came before it is such a waste. for awhile there with the milkman stuff i thought we were gonna come nice and full circle with the first season where The Quaint Town Of Riverdale gets thrown into chaos but. they havent been willing to commit to anything this season. its really just such a lot of nothing. the only thing keeping my interest is 1. beronica and 2. everyones outfits are so fucking excellent all the time. completely worth it just to see what clothes everyone else was wearing

[hella1975]

Hi hella!!!

I feel like i always start these off or end them by saying that these things are going to be incomprehensible in some way, mainly bc i have trouble translating whats going on in my mind into written words so i really dont know how much of my list thingies make sense to you but this one is especially probably going to not make much sense. (also bc i send them a lot when im either very tired or not sober, but i am sober and wide awake rn so this might be a different kind of incomprehensible)

I found one of my old drafts for an ask from around a year ago and it was a follow up response to the last chapter you posted at the time, so im not sure how its going to sound without the context of that specific chapter, but i also mentioned in one of my other asks that i add stuff in last minute and that ask i added a shit ton of stuff so i dont have any of that pretyped out so im going by memory.  But im sending it again bc i havent seen you answer it 

(please do not interpret this as ‘why didnt you answer my ask >:/’ or me rushing you to answer asks or anything like that, but like I said its been a year so im assuming tumblr ate it.  If not and you just havent cleaned out your ask box and you find the original, congratulations you’ll know what i originally said.  Bc idk how accurate this will be)

SO

Theres two different ways that you seem to write metaphors (idk if thats what theyre called im not caught up on my literary terminology)

 (im scrolling through your blog rn looking for my other asks and tumblr really did you dirty in your asks system like i started scrolling and the third one down was from 2021 and im fighting for my life trying to find my tag (thank you for my tag btw its very useful to me))

Anywho, most of your metaphors ( to me) can be split into two categories.  Theres the simple ones and the complex ones.  Now this might seem obvious but im going to explain to you how these have different effects on my brain.  

An example of the ‘simple’ ones is  

““If Nanook’s tone had a note of seriousness, then Zuko’s was the entire orchestra.”” (idk what chapter this is from its been a while)

You have a lot of these kinds of whatever the haick kind of literary technique this is (is this a metaphor i’ve been trying to google it for like ½ an hour and i cant figure it out) BUT these type of things that are simple and easy to process is one of my favorite things about the way you write.  I think this is a very common technique but the way you do it to me is just a lot more unique than the ways ive seen it done before.  Its extremely fluent with the voice of the characters and brings a perfect kind of vibe to the ‘conversation’ (or story, text, whatever) and it paints the picture of what your trying to say perfectly.  I also really like how these types of things arent ever in Zukos pov a lot (sometimes it is, but not nearly as much, I’ve noticed) and its not in the more serious like revelations that you drop these in.  Like I said, it adds to the voice of the characters, bc of the contrast of Zuko constantly having revelations and dramatic archs and stuff, and the other characters just in general being a lot more calm.  Its like when youre listening to a song and you have the lyrics and the like ‘main’ music behind the lyrics, but then when you listen to the song a lot you notice the smaller, like backup music that adds a lot to the song and makes it a lot more enjoyable than if it was just the lyrics and the louder more up front music.  

Then in contrast you have the bigger ‘metaphors’ 

An example of this is ‘You curse in words already invented’ 

THIS IS MY FAVORITE LINE IN THE ENTIRE FIC.  

OF ANY FIC OR BOOK EVER READ

AND THIS IS WHY

When I tell you I could not figure out what this meant for months I am AWFUL with stuff like this and interpreting it my english teachers hate me bc of it.  Id have the question ‘why were the curtains blue’ and my answer would be ‘bc the people who decorated the room like blue maybe theyre interior designers and it goes with the room 😊 and thats so hot of them bc i love blue too’  

But even thought i couldnt figure it out it stayed in my head and i probably thought about it once a day (i mean this literally, i think about that part all the time) and i cant remember the context for that or anything but i do remember that i knew it was a wonderful phrase.  

I’ve mentioned in my other asks how whenever im reading anything at all that you’ve written (whether its tams, or toab, or in the tags of something even if its like 10 words), everything you type comes out so fluidly like a formula or a color wheel or however i put it last time i talked about this.  And this is on the prodigious end of the spectrum of this.  

But phrases like that are another part of the fic, theyre like the lyrics of the song.  Like the phrases that gets all the attention and gets put in fanart and that gets quoted in comment sections because they deserve that recognition and you deserve that recognition and are just a reminder of how incredibly talented you are.  

I mean that in the most sincere way that i know how to express.  

I am constantly in awe of you and your writing style, and i really do think of you as one of the most talented writers of everything ive ever read.  

And something else worth mentioning is that it isnt just your ao3 that portrays that.  Like if I were to just read your ao3 I’d be like ‘oh wow this person is an amazing writer’ But your tumblr persona plays into it a lot more (In my opinion).  Because then you see like more ‘backround’ stuff on ao3.  And more of your system (im not articulating this in the way i mean it very well) and you get privy to the fact that you’re not a 30 year old with a masters in english and that you’ve never had any formal education on writing.  I vaguely remember you talking about a story about a sailor (??? i might be misremembering that) that you wrote when you were a child and thinking ‘oh wow so she’s always been like that’.  And its stuff like that that you dont get on ao3 that kind of reaffirms how incredible of a writer you are.  

And this (to me) makes you a really easy person to admire.  (ik i touched on this in a different ask but i dont remember if it was one of my list asks or not) but as someone who probably isnt going to ever be able to get an education around writing, it kind of reassures me that i dont need that to be great at it.  

(i kind of feel like a lot of the stuff in this ask is too like ‘simple’ or obvious to be given a lot of weight, but this whole thing is about the kinds of things you do that brings me personally joy and the metaphors are one of them so)

Also on an off note when i was looking through your asks to try to find my tag, I noticed that i send you a heavy percentage of your anonymous asks (mainly without my alias) and I thought that was funny.  But also i hope it doesnt come across as obsessive or weird, I swear i do that to a lot of people on here, I’m just a very social person.  .😂

Also Im in your tbos server (lurking in the shadows) and someone pointed out that whenever you do the reaction emojis you always do the white ones, and thats going on the official ‘my favorite things about hella’ list because that was genuinely one of the funniest things ive seen. 

Also the ‘anytime you type its very fluid (im too lazy to scroll up and see how i put it rn) also carrys on to discord.  I think that i could probably block out the user names and be able to figure out that its you talking every time, you have a very distinct way of talking.  

Also i wanted to mention that every time you answer these i read them again and i want to say like 1/3 of what i sasy, i have no recollection of. And i never have any idea what im talking about. so i think thats funny.

LIST ANONNNNNNNNNNNNN BAWLING MY EYES OUT HELLO BABY WELCOME BACK FROM WAR IVE MISSED YOU IM JUST HERE LIKE THIS RN

🛒 What's on the list? Any plots or ideas? Something you wanna write?

RP preferences meme - Accepting!

Things generally come to me when I get engrossed in some new piece of media and then it becomes "Oh, that could be a cool plot idea or a new chapter in a longer storyline!"

I can say these days it's harder to be inspired by memes, especially quote memes where it wouldn't make sense for most muses to say a quote line by line, doubly so with lyrics quotes. And situations can be iffy: I like slightly longer prompts with more of a scene set up in it versus a simple gesture prompt most of the time.

That said, I'm really hoping with the popularity of shows like Bridgerton and next year's release of the new Rose of Versailles movie that there will be an even larger interest in historical fiction, alternate history, and historical romance! I've written once with a Lady Oscar and once with a Charles-Henri Sanson from Innocent and, while done in contemporary settings, they were a lot of fun to indulge in. And I've done a few alternate history threads with Code: Realize crossovers, and even tried one with a Hakuoki muse, putting Sonia in that mid-19th Century Japanese storyline the otome game covers while trying to add real life historical elements as to why a European would be present. I love being able to use historical details and inspiration from both real life and historical fiction in RP, but it's not too popular in the Danganronpa fandom or other fandoms that tend to visit my blog.

tl;dr: Give me your historical muses from around 1750 to 1940s.

And while I've tiptoed around this sort of thread, I've never really gotten to do a long-term storyline in a non-despair verse of Danganronpa muses attending a school reunion, seeing what their lives have turned into after high school. Usually when muns have DR muses, I find they tend to want a high school storyline in non-despair or a post-SDR2 storyline. It's actually one of the reasons I love writing with OCs, particularly those not affiliated with Danganronpa: it gives me a chance to explore Sonia's life outside of the school, the killing games, and the canon in general. I enjoy writing how her experiences as a student shaped her as an adult (and not always with the crippling angst the canon provides).

Finally, I'd love to write with Danganronpa muses I don't usually see on tumblr! There's a handful that I tend to see often, on single or multimuse blogs, and while I don't mind writing with them I'd love a bit more variety: DR has such a large cast and so many muses go unrepresented (but this is 2024 and a lot of DR writers have moved on).

Specifically, I'd be thrilled if a mun is a multi-para writer, interested in building a long-term storyline, and writes somewhat consistently for:

Akane Owari*

Peko Pekoyama*

Celestia Ludenberg*

Kyoko Kirigiri*

Byakuya Togami*

Ibuki Mioda

Nekomaru Nidai

Sakura Ogami

Mondo Owada

Sayaka Maizono

Mukuro Ikusaba

Gonta Gokuhara

Kirumi Tojo

Ryoma Hoshi

Tsumugi Shirogane (purely to have cosplay-focused threads, because I'm biased)

The stars indicate my ship preferences because I'll be shameless like that

And while these characters are slightly more common, I've yet to have much experience writing with them:

Rantaro Amami

Kaede Akamatsu

I would add Maki Harukawa here but I have a feeling all I need to do is cut back on some threads and say the word and Bryn could be convinced to provide her girl.

In short, this fandom has such a broad cast of characters and yet hardly anyone writes for at least half of them. It's sad. :(

Anything else though, I generally just wait to be inspired by something or have a mun suggest "hey, what if our muses got into this?" That's how some of my favorite interactions have unfolded.

im playing on a new account so im starting from the beginning and i feel like the entrance text changed a lot? i started playing ages ago so my memory could just be fuzzy but i remember part of the text being something like "darknees came, and the starts fell" and now it's "darkness came, and our kingdom was shattered"
