#but to be fair they came to me

If you ever have the instinct to make a useless addition to a post that you know will be received badly? Possibly because you're aware that you're about to say something nobody should or perhaps it would cause an argument with one of your closest friends?

Somebody said something incredibly foolish and inconsiderate in your favorite fandom tag and you just get an itching to tell them to stop it but you know it would not change their mind?

May I recommend this epic new technique called "pretend you never saw the post". I have been utilizing this technique for years and I truly believe that with enough practice you, too, can stop saying things you shouldn't

This chocobo looks familiar.... Right...?

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

not to go off topic but i think that ideal post-canon dungeon meshi situation for kabru is for him to simultaneously have a slowburn domestic cozy noodles and rare escapes to go monster hunting and falling asleep in the same bed situation with mithrun AND some sort of high politics high stakes power dynamics they can't escape, manipulation equally matched by hopeless affection, glances shared over council tables, getting caught in the closet with the king again (explaining basic social protocols to him) thing with laios.

then just as he's coming to terms with his own feelings and the possibility that they might be romantic he learns that mithrun and laios have in fact been carrying on some sort of psychosexual no-strings affair the whole time (mithrun sits on the dresser and dispassionately explains horrific and bizarre monster situations from around the globe while laios gets off seven feet away)

"Your heart was in the right place. Don't blame your earnestness and efforts for their lack of understanding—the right people will appreciate your heart."

ppl dont assume tom cruise is in the closet like they used to

Like have we lost recipes this badly….there’s an entire chapter just on him in the David Ehrenstein book “Open Secret (Gay Hollywood 1928-1998)” … Gregg Araki openly called him the “Rock Hudson of the 90s” in Totally Fucked Up (1993) … he’s alleged to have worked at Studio 54 when he was 17 … he’s had pretty substantial gay rumors surrounding him since the early 80s including more than a few that have made their way into my DMs from people who knew … everyone should read the 1999 piece “Cruising Cruise”

okay okay, hear me out

qimir's scar is twisted and jagged. he was abandoned (""abandoned"" could mean anything right now) by his master.

vernestra has a light whip. she believes strongly in the jedi, the jedi code and the order and what they stand for, how the republic views them. maybe enough to become desperate, to make a mistake

vernestra was qimir's master ???

edit: qimir would likely have been driven by intense emotions and vernestra would likely have cautioned him against that, tried to reign him in like obi wan did with anakin and. well, we all know how that ended

Zack Fair coming all the way back from 2008 to haunt me

[pine-needle-shuffle]

….Harpy Kunsel? 😳🙏 (in your Everyone Is Birds au, and/or Riptide?)

YEAH! he's a burrowing owl, 'cause he's always digging for information!

Also did you know owls have a toe on their talons that swivels back and forth? Zack didn't. He didn't like it very much.

If you are alone, that is the quietest, most personal hell. And James, it is very hard to escape.

Also I’m in love with the way this story does worldbuilding. I love worldbuilding anyway, but TTO:U is a phenomenal example of how to just say things and let your reader pick up on them.

For example, I first latched onto “pre-Neocambrian” as a fun little word challenge, since I saw it was taking root words for New and Change and leaning on the way we categorize dinosaur eras. It was a fun little puzzle!

And then I felt even smarter for realizing the word I’d been skimming over as scifi-speak, “preneek,” was a shortening of the proper term Aspen uses, the pre-Neocambrian.

So then it becomes a character study: how Aspen, publisher of four successful novels and holder of at least one doctorate, uses clinical and accurate terms, vs Tal, genius in kes own way but definitely more prone to using slang, speak differently about the same thing.

I just… so much about this makes me go heart-eyes, and I haven’t even talked about how I had to verbally enthuse about floating forests and their genetically modified inhabitants to my poor partner.

Confession time: I initially started shipping Laishuro because I thought it was the funniest way to make Shuro suffer after everything that’s gone on (Laios would have been fine with it since he obviously doesn’t hold any ill feelings). And then I read the last chapters and epilogue and was like ohhhh…

Anyway I also reread the manga and had the realization that Shuro had no idea how cool Laios thinks he is. The anime didn’t keep him mumbling “What about me is strong…?” after Laios said everything about himself not being as skilled or strong as Shuro. Then that made me think about how ironic it is that Shuro is probably aware/self-conscious about being boring from the perspective of his father that he doesn’t know how to handle Laios thinking he’s the greatest guy ever.

Ouhghhh my god...................... theyve had their moment in canon where theyve said their worst opinions about the other. now i desperately want a moment for laios specifically to say, with the full concentrated power of the sun, exactly what it is that he thinks is so great to shuros face. i want shuros face to explode into flames
