Hey so this is my list of Molly character traits i gathered through talks and various sources

Thought it could help anyone figuring out how to write molly, if you even care? Take this however you want, ill just leave this here

These are factual shit taliesin or others said about him, my personal opinions or notes are between the [ ] thingies

(in case someone wants the source of X thing, just ask me)

• contrary to percy de rolo (who is trying to find his place in the world) molly ALREADY found his place in the world, the world has to contourt around him and he's not changing anything about himself, fuck all

• he has a clear, strong moral code that he follows strictly, even if his actions seem random. [and thats why i dont consider him "chaotic" in the alignment chart, even if he SEEMS chaotic]

• talking about alignment, he also doesnt have any, he def doesnt fit into the "lawful" category, but also "neutral" doesnt sound like him, which makes sense because taliesin based molly (among other things) around the idea of a character NOT being able to fit into the alignment chart, as if if he ever picked a weapon that only worked for people of certain alignment, the weapon would never work with him. Everything explodes [this is all mentioned in the m9 wrap up, regarding mollys creation]

• molly doesnt want to be lonely / is lowk afraid of being so. He doesnt know what its like to be alone because he literally has no memory of ever being so; he has always been in company. And so he's NOT eager to find out.

• he likes complex group dynamics because he's used to them, so being with the nein feels comfortable. (Taliesin said, he literally just went from shifty group to another shifty-unhealthy-group) Still, he knows theres some shit they have to work out in terms of "you fuck everybody over, but THIS group of people you dont fuck with"

• to the previous point, molly is very serious about the little group he has, be it the circus or the nein, you DONT fuck this people over, you may start a war with the dynasty, but THIS group you dont fuck with, and i believe molly has explicitly said this himself (i think around ep12. not the dynasty part though, he doesnt know what a kingdom is in the first place)

• hes damn functionally illiterate, dont care about books, and hes not that bright [*looks at that 10 int*]

• hes a classisist (no explanation needed. I also am not going to rewatch 26 episodes rn to psychoanalyse this part of him. Give me 2 years)

• he doesnt care about anybody's backstory, he doesnt have one, "doesnt see the point in the mess" he will wait until you ACTUALLY do something fucked up and then we'll see [taliesin said that he doesnt think thats a good way of thinking,, but well. NEVER think that their dnd characters are right, ever]

• he didnt learn any name of any Town he went to "because WHY. BOTHER." [This is very conected to the whole illiterate deal, he really doesn't know anything about the world and doesnt care (take for example this moment)]

• he's his own moral compass. He's the center of his own moral reality. He's a deep believer of "I am smart enough to not do anything wrong UNLESS its entirely by accident. So anything i do on purpose cant possibly be wrong because i'm never a wrong person" [yes, thats fucked up LMAO, & im quoting this from taliesin]

• he has a "experience everything" mentality because of the fact that he lost an unknown number of years of his life, and suspects that his past will eventually come and bite his ass and.. he probably wont survive it. so he doesnt think he will be here for long

• theres a definite fear of mortality (?said taliesin) [which is weird since i thought he didnt care? aw man, now his death is even sadder -> this was written when i wasnt over molly's death, okay?]

• he thinks all tm9 is attractive "this is a very shaggable group" [-said taliesin in a panel-]

• he was a BAD roommate. Take this however you want, but for example, he would be casually naked, [at least often enough for taliesin to say this]

• he takes advantage in people making assumptions about him and hes comfortable with it

meaning, if you're a weirdo who enters a room, the way people react about you, tells YOU all you need to know about THEM

[In case its not clear, skip this if it is: if when people see you the first thing they do is side-eye you and make assumptions about you, then you easily learn you dont even need to engage with them, "why talk with someone who makes assumptions abt ppl like that? They've got problems"]

There are more things, if i didnt add them, i probably just didnt even think about adding because i thought of them as obvious, or i actually missed it.

Do you have any kakasaku recs? I’d love to branch out more with them!

hmm. It depends on what you like? I'd definitely recommend anything by @twofortea, @goldfishlover73, @bluemingqueen,

Dear Future You by @scarecrows-to-cherrytrees is one i read recently and freaking adored. And it's completed. Timetravel, broody early Naruto Kakashi, his future Sakura pops back to cause mayhem. Sexy, addictive, wonderfully written. There's one fight scene, if you read it you'll get it, but it's so dark, and sexy, and fuck I felt like I should hang up my keyboard because I'll never write anything so amazing when I read that scene.

Bluemingqueen has an adorable ongoing same age au/timetravel called The Danger of Smudged Storage Scrolls that I'm also seriously loving. I think it's almost finished. Its freaking cute. Awkward little Kakashi, determined to not be useless Sakura, sweet best friend vibes and mostly I'm just obsessed with how cute they are together so young! Its so well done and I cant wait till its finished. They also had a lot of great amazing one shots for kakasaku week. Like seriously, so good.

If you like AU, I just binged the shit out of The Exciting Adventures of Lotus Man, Blue Boy and the Not-So-Relucant Doctor Petals by goldfish. I had to Google the anime they crossed with for this but it was so hilarious, amazing pacing, the way they are like, PROFESSOR at smoth as fuck Xovers. Like. The way the two worlds work so well. The characterization are on point and if you like romance with a side of bromance and a shy Kakashi, it's for you. I really recommend this one. Goldfish also has a hanahaki disease long one shot, Blood Red Cherry Blossoms. It is beautiful. It is flawless. There isn't a single thing about the story that I would have done differently or went, "hm, idk but whatever." But the end will crush your soul for ever. It's been months and it still lives on my head, making me well up with sad and anger. It's okay though, because I wrote a fix it chapter 2 in my head so I console myself.

Tea has a lot of smut. Not really my thing anymore but what I have seen is... well done lol there are also several cute as fuck one-shot and short fics amongst the porn. Baby You Can Drive My Car is an adorable example. And No Dogs Allowed is as well. I love dog dad Kakashi here so freaking much. And I say that as someone that can not stand obnoxious dog people irl.

There are several other long ones I can not think of the names of rn. One, involved K and S getting involved in a drug/human trafficking thing. I wish so much I could remember because it was amazing. She's drugged at a bar, he saves her. She comes on to him, he actually is into it but she's drugged so. They finally get handsy later and she's abducted mid coitus. Gets wild from there.

Hope that helps!!

im curious! what have you done or studied for your anatomy to be on point? your proportions n' the general "feel" or fluidity of everything looks and feels right.

oh ty T_T!!! this means a lot.. i like talking about technical art stuff..

i think i dont have a good answer though... tbh i am actually really bad at telling myself to do actual studies or any sort of figure drawing. this has led to problems where i cant draw anything pretty realistic but i can only draw cartoons good...but im not doing any art professionally rn so its ok lol

i think just looking at a lot of stylized art from artists you like/are inspired by is helpful for learning how to do anything in art really. i think making art thats a little inspired by other peoples work is also good ! for example for my lineless stuff, i was trying to take certain aspects of Hyogonosuke's pokemon illustrations that i liked (like the linelessness and naturey settings) but not entirely Copying the work they've done. you can learn a lot from doing "kind of studies" where you try to emulate aspects of things u like but in your own work and artstyle (in this case, proportions and such)

also i just really. really like drawing bodies. ive been drawing little characters (mostly girls . lol) all my life. my philosophy with learning art is you need to have fun for it to actually be a productive learning experience. which is why forcing myself to do anatomy studies/figure drawing is kinda like pulling teeth because im one of those "i wanna do My Own Thing" people (stubborn) (autism) (i dont like being told what to do too much for creative endeavors)

tldr:

-you can do life studies if thats your thing but ultimately dont force yourself all the time if its not enjoyable

-look at stylized art online you enjoy the proportions and anatomy of and study that also

-play toys forever

I hope this isnt trauma dumping or sm but i just needed to get this out and also get some advice and i think i really like ur advice. So i have been jn a relationship w my bf for 2 years now and i love him with my heart and soul and we plan to get married ( ee are still young but we see that as the futuregoal) so up tntil a few months back i used to just go to random s*x chat groups and something and would share my nudes nd just stuff like that and would also watch p*rn .. these are both things that me and my bf would a 100% consider cheating and if he did this to me i would kill myself out of sorrow. I absolutely hate myself and am disgusted at myself i was distracted for a little while with my exams but now they are over and now im crying all the time again just thinking about what i did to the boy i love the most. At the time i didnt think much of it and at first i would just talk w people but slowly i started sharing nudes and i did this a couple of times until i realized a few months back how wrong it is. I have no idea how i didnt realise how wrong this is?Up until this i was a really good person i dont think ive ever hurt anybody and i am very nice also but now idk i just hate myself and everything about me .Every day whenever i think aboyt this i cant help but cry and think there really isnt anything else i can do. Of course i have changed and wouldnt think of doing such a thing again but still the fact that i did it in the first place makes me want to die.

Ik its so selfish but i cant keeo thinking that he will do sm like this to me also and that ill get my karma. Does karma really even exist and how do i get myself to atop thinking this now i always suspect him of cheating and talking to other girls. Hes done sm similar to cheating to me but nothing on this level. What he did is nothing ckmpared to what i did.

And in the context of manifesting, should i manifest that none of this ever happened and for me to be a really nice person or shoukd i manifest that this completely gets erased from my memory or what?? This also messes up my manifestion so much i cant helo hut tell myself that i dont deserve good things as im a bad person . Please help. If youre not comfortable answering this then im sorry for wasting ur time

Hii love!

BABE CALM DOWN! I UNDERSTAND YOU!!

My success in revising an embarrassing situation!

Once I did something very embarrassing like so embarrassing I just wanted to k!ll myself💀 but then I thought why should I do that to myself? I was born in this world to be happy and cherished 24/7! so I just affirmed robotically that NOTHING BAD HAPPENED AND I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THAT AND MY DP WHO WITNESSED THAT FORGETS IT TOO! (It was very tough for me too! The shit which I did kept popping up in my mind, BUT I DIDN'T GIVE MUCH ATTENTION TO THAT AND KEPT AFFIRMING!)

Well it just took me 1 day! One full day of robotic affirmations! LITERALLY THE VERY NEXT DAY EVEN I FORGOT AND MY DP TOTALLY FORGOT!! I WAS SO SO HAPPY!

Suggestion for you! 💕

I know it's so tough for you to affirm totally against of what happened, but trust me! JUST AFFIRM! YOU ARE SO POWERFUL LOVE! JUST REVISE SAYING,

"I never did anything bad and I am never guilty"

I AM BEING 1000000% SURE WHATEVER YOU WANT WILL HAPPEN. WHATEVER YOU WANTED TO CHANGE, WILL CHANGE! MORE LIKE, IT HAS ALREADY CHANGED !!

With lots of love,

ADILYNN YURI🤍🌷

your nuanced take on nicky is SO real especially the part where you pointed out that neil literally feels 1000x more violated by getting drugged (by his literally future life partner so clearly people grow and change !!!) than he does by getting kissed nonconsentually. obviously it makes him uncomfortable but he moves on because it’s like that wasn’t triggering for him it was just a bit gross. as long as that doesn’t happen we keep it pushing. on the other hand being forced into losing control and being unaware of his surroundings (the very thing that has kept him alive all these years) is a million times more triggering to someone like neil but everyone likes the sweep the harm from that under the rug. just because neil eventually understands why (disturbingly understanding guy tbh) doesn’t mean it didn’t affect him at the time. i think people kind of latch on to the fact that andrew drugged him but didn’t like do anything to him while he was vulnerable but that’s only bc neil got himself out of there. sure we know andrew would never sexually assault someone but who knows what he might have done if he had his way that night. i read this fic once where it’s neil’s 3rd or 4th year so his life is well established and then he gets in an accident and gets retrograde amnesia back to the night of the drugging and the fallout is crazy. bc all of the sudden he’s right back in that headspace of like if he distrusts one mf in the entire world it’s andrew. and for good reason! and also this is not andrew hate at all he’s my fucked up little guy but we do have to get real here ppl

okay responding under the cut yayyy i love talking about columbia its my favorite chapter in the first book. sorry for writing you a whole essay btw. also obligatory disclaimer that im not saying u have to like nicky / cant be uncomfortable with him and his actions / that sexual assault is okay / etc

i am once again. bringing up academic work. bcus i am in a crit sexualities class rn and its rlly interesting #mynerdinterests. i've actually already brought up gayle rubin's thinking sex when talking about andrew and jean's treatment in the fandom. and i WILL be doing it again bcus even tho the article is super controversial (and i definitely do not agree with everything rubin says) she gives us some really good vocab surrounding the innate beliefs / values that get drilled into us by american society. she brings up this idea called "the fallacy of the misplaced scale" which is basically that we give sex and sex acts an excess of significance, and that any sort of sexual sin is especially heinous or morally reprehensible.

this general idea is why i think people tend to feel fine with physical violations within media (for example neil getting drugged by andrew) but react more aggressively to any kind of sexual transgression (like nicky assaulting neil). both of these actions are Bad. andrew is taking away neil's ability to protect himself, drugging him against his will, and forcing him into an extremely vulnerable state. nicky is also giving neil drugs (on andrew's orders) with the addition of nonconsensually kissing him to do it. but people focus more heavily on that rather than andrew's actions bcus as you said "he didnt actually do anything" and bcus sexual acts are always elevated above others. i would argue this is also why you see people treat jean's trauma more seriously than kevin's. or why people will write neil getting sexually assaulted in the nest rather than just tortured for the extra angst. it adds an extra level of "seriousness" or "importance" to the violation that's occurred.

i also think one of the reasons people ignore the consequences around andrew drugging neil (or even nix it all together in their rewrites) is because andrew IS the love interest so we obviously get much closer and a much deeper look into his character and motivations than nicky. we also get neil's reactions to them which most people would probably consider abnormal, since he doesn't really care about the kissing and remains friendly with nicky p much immediately after (tho he DOES get rlly uncomfortable about the bed sharing. which i personally think is worse than the kissing by nicky) but he does hate andrew and heavily distrust him post drugging ("dont sleep ill kill you", checking the glass when he goes to eden's next). like even when he's like "wow andrew could hold my truth without flinching yada yada" he's still lowkey hating him for it, before it becomes water under the bridge due to neil's ability to let things go (this is a hashtag certified mary hatfordism. its definitely bcus of his time on the run). anyway wow i just wrote you a bonafide essay. sorry this got off track but i love complex relationships and emotions and sexual situations. and also i love andrew nicky and neil literally my top 3 aftg characters. anyway im saying all this in good faith hope you enjoy anon.

tldr: @buddyaldridge is a 30 year old weirdo proshipper who talks shit about ppl behind their backs, block em and report if you can/want to

just wanna let everyone know theres a omegaverse mpreg dallyboy writer whos been an all around WEIRDOOOOO cause their brain is LITERALLY porn rotted and they cannot fathom ppl actually having fun at all, their @ is @buddyaldridge aka @pelopsides previously known as @madelynprior

in 2020-2022 the outsiders tumblr they used to be @madelynprior and theyre a hardcore dallyboy stan which is already fucking weird, but on top of that, they would make teen pregnancy omegaverse smut fics which??? and im not gonna give you the ss, nigga im givin yall the LINKKK to see it with your own eyes so you know im not crazy

how ik its them is bc on their acc RIGHT before they switched to their buddyaldridge acc, and before that acc was named “pelopides”, they used to go by “madeleinepryor”, how ik its the same person is bc on a good chunk of their post, theyd tag it as “#madeleinepryor dispatches” on top of that, they just straight up linked their ao3 acc😭😭

heres what the link goes to, they linked their ao3 acc, they just changed their username on ao3 as well from madeleinepryor to greasers

now me calling them a proshipper isnt me talking out of my ass, they say it themselves like ughhhhjjj

as for them talking about other ppl, i wont share ALL the screenshots bc idk if the ppl theyre talking bad about would rlly feel comfortable w those being posted, if they know, they can feel free to post it on their own accord, so like i said, wont share, but i HAVE seen some and i can conform that they have done it, its ABSOLUTELY NOT above them

for now ill post the ss i CAN post rn which just proves my point

now ignoring that theyre talking smack, theyre just so odd and obviously didnt rlly think this through bc 1967 is ALREADY IMPLIED in the 60s, youre just incapable of reading things that arent about teen boys getting it on w each other PLEASE get a grip on reality😭😭

theyve talked about 14 year olds and their post on their acc just to shit on them, once again, GROWN ASS PERSON TWEAKIN OVER THE IDEAS OF A 14 YEAR OLD🗣️🗣️

NOW maybe your asking “how do you know the discord user and the tumblr user are the same person” AND I WILL ADMIT, while i DO have strong feelings they are the same person, its not 100% proven, HOWEVER buddyaldridge DOES go by buddy and that discord users name is buddy, so while its not concrete, the link IS there, once again, feel free to come to whatever conclusion you wanna come to about that

but what ISNT disputable is the fact that theyre a proshitter

additionally just this??? reblog from them????

on its own, not MUCH, bit considering the fics they make this is SO weird like??????

and finally, ive heard that theyve specifically came for me about my haitian shepards and maybe even my heritage, saying that they hated race hcs??????like using me as an example, they ss my acc and talked shit, someone contacted me about it and they dont have ss of it specifically, but they can vouch for it, and im not just gonna dismiss that, bc while they dont have ss, they do have ss and proof of everything else, so i do believe them, and theyve said if they find it they would show them to me, do what you wanna with this info

ANYWAYS buddy, your brain is unironically pornrotted, ur being a lil baby who cant do anything but cry and moan online on discord of all places and ur doing all this as a 30+ year old, and its CRAZIER bc youre doing all this while having “minors dni” in your pinned post, while also writing about minors, in a fandom MOSTLY OF MIDDLE SCHOOLERS!!!! (aka minors!!! ik age is hard for you to grasp) on top of that, literally ANY and ALL race hcs is way more believable and enjoyable than any “ideas” you’ve been cooking up in that odd demented, shriveled up pea brain of urs

anyways yea, that all i have to say, and im speaking for myself here, but i mean this with every fiber of my being, i dont know how you function in life but i DO NOT want you to go any farther, and i think others would/DO feel the same, ive seen what makes you cheer and i am PROUUUDDD to make you BOOOOO, you shouldnt be near minors at all, fictional or non fictional, you should BARELY be near other adults

plus if you go onto their acc rn, notice how when anon called them out, buddy aint even say they were wrong?? JUST SAYIN🗣️🗣️

im tagging everything i can tag bc i DO NOTTTT want mfs interacting w their blog, and want as many ppl as possible to be aware, dont say anything to them, dont give them attention bc obviously they’ll think this is funny and post it on their shitty discord server or whatever and giggle like they arent a grown ass nigga w bills to pay, trying so hard to cling onto their high school days, making fics about a canon middle schooler getting banged and pregnant, pls block and report do whatever u wanna do, just plssss dont let this proshitter on this damn sight near kidssss😭😭

dont take this as me WANTING drama, i dont, i just dont want ppl coming in this fandom thinking posting this shit and doing this is ok, youre bullying ppl for doing harmless things meanwhile your just making straight porn about a weird ship left n right, thinking YOUUUUU of all ppl have the place to talk about anyone or anything like your opinion on anything is valid😭😭

you NEED stones thrown at you

if anyone has anymore ss send em to mmeeeeee, but in the mean time ill be doin my own thing wooooo‼️‼️🔥🔥

Goi to sleep rn (10.52 pm for me) but what do yoe thunk makes a good story? A good plot?

I want to make one but i cant :'[

I uusually do js short stories and poetey

Hey sorry for the late reply!

I don't think there's such a thing as a good story or even a bad one. A bad story is when an idea, no matter how cool it is, is poorly written or just didn't have that affect on you to like it. A good story is when the blood, sweat and passion into coming up, developing and writing an idea. It doesn't matter if a majority likes or dislikes a story, that's doesn't make a book good or bad, though it is definitely a sign. Hunger Games is considered one of the best dystopian books written but I don't like it, so there's that.

It all depends on personal preference (and by that I mean YOUR preference since it's not good to write what's 'trendy' or what other people want to read) but I tend to like more stories that are character driven. Characters that I relate to or root for or love to hate, either way. There are character driven stories, plot heavy or lore (setting). Like said before, character driven stories focus on characters, like Percy Jackson. Plot heavy focuses on plot and how characters play their roles in a way, the best example I can think of is Alex Rider. Lore heavy more focuses on world building like all those classic high fantasy books like Lord of the Rings or something.

Or you can do all three, like Harry Potter, though it's more of a mix of character driven and setting based.

Again, it all depends on personal preference. Don't focus on what makes a story 'good'. If you have any idea, write them down. Your favorite ones, work on them. If you do get a good one to work on, try to not share too much about it. Whenever I tell someone all about my story, it halts me from adding more changes cuz I think it has already been told. One of my moots made fan art for my show and I felt seriously guilty because I had made so many changes to it.

All in all, don't focus on what's good. Focus on what you like and work on it.

(Bear in mind that though I've been writing for a while but I'm still young and learning so take this advice with a grain of salt. Every writer is different!)

[anomalydestroyer]

Woke up with this and am now intrigued and curious

oh boy do i have the time to fully tackle this rn (i am like. supposed to study. but anyway-)

multiversal madness is akin to you losing your mind because of eldritch/cosmic knowledge and yada yada. not the same but similar.

it can manifest in maaany ways, but im gonna take myself as an example : tldr going in contact with the multiverse made me lose my mind and kill people. for others it can be triggered by the concept that there's multiple of your selves, or well in general the whole knowledge of alternate universes existing can drive someone mad or mentally ill.

usually it happens with people originating from lower dimensions getting in contact with higher ones (the multiverse is the 5th dimension and forward. usually people born on the 4th dimension (like you and me for example) are only used to that and "understanding"/getting in contact with higher dimensions might be too much information for one's mind of that level etc etc)

counterexample : gods whose physiology and mind are *made* of multiple dimensions are immune to multiversal madness, of at least the dimensions of their origins.

tldr, someone existing in the 6th dimension will be fine knowing about the dimensions from 0(?) to 6 etc. (im saying that as i have roomates who are gods and are VERY unphased of having doubles because... they exist in multiple timelines at the same time. yes even irl timelines. its weird. while you and me exist in one at the time. the rest of "us" in divergent timelines being different people and our minds are not connected to them, etc.)

its like saying that a square, exists only in the 2nd dimension. if you duplicate it and move the duplicate aside thats now two different ones, not the same but displaced. but if those are *connected* they now exist in 2 universes of the 2nd dimension and are their own entity existing in two 2 dimensional places, aka in the 3rd dimension. idfk if im making sense tbh lmao? but like yeah, a cube, to *exist* and be functional etc, *must* exist in multiple 2d planes, each plane containing different data of the cube. but the cube exists in like x amount of 2d planes, but a square in one of the cubes planes would only be able to see a slice of said plane. thats how i see the gods in my head lmao, their physical visible form is only a fraction of their existence as an entity.

anyway that aside. basically the "mortal mind" (or well. the 3-4th dimensional mind), cant deal very well with knowledge beyond its scope. dont get me wrong some people are not. *that* afflicted with multiversal madness. but yeah it depends on how you have been exposed to the concept tbh. but tbh the ones that are not affected are simply the ones not thinking about it lol <///3.

so it really stems from being suddenly able to see something you shouldnt see. for me it mostly happened when i got corrupted and when i was able to move in the... 5th dimension i think? yeah. and also when i was able to see the fabric of a universe i am in (aka the code). actually i think im technically able to move through more dimensions than that- but i am not able to see them as a *whole" ykwim? its like, if a square was suddenly able to move 2d planes. it is *still made of 2d data*, but suddenly it can change universes and move through them. but it us unable to see or comprehend the full 3d world, ykwim? for me it feels mostly like as if i am moving but blind. i cant just see the multiverse all at once like the gods can, i can see one "plane" at a time and such. so yeah i basically dipped a finger in concepts beyond what my sanity could handle and went mad from it <3333 normal stuff yk lmao/silly

so yeah uh, idk if i explained it right or cleanly? but if you have any follow up questions please let me know./gen

no fr tho i am terrified of being lied to. like idk what my family mustve done to me to make me like this but like at least half the reason conversation is so exhausting for me is that every time someone asks me something or even just fucking says something comepletely unimportant i get paranoid theyre trying to trick me or smth. like straight up my friend who i know and trust will be like man i love [insert thing] and im immediately like oh god oh fuck i like that thing too what if theyre trying to trick me into agreeing and when i do theyll reveal they actually hate that thing and everyone who doesnt is horrible amd deserves to die and then theyre gonna leave me. like this is bad to the point i will either avoid answering and change the subject if i can or ill just abandon the conversation and never text back unless they start a new conversation. theres other situations im like this but cant think of them rn

this also goes hand in hand with my self doubt where i get confused about everything someone is saying and im like im pretty sure this is what they meant its the obvious meaning but what if im reading it wrong and totally misinterpret and then im gonna look stupid and theyre gonna hate me so then as always i just avoid answering. again there are other worse examples of this but cant think of any so just know i do not trust myself or anyone else in any way and i will always assume im wrong or being lied to

I feel like you sometimes act like your experiences are universal, even if you know they aren't, it might just be the way you phrase things. I hope you don't take this too much to heart. You don't even need to answer this ask, I just wanted to bring it to your attention so you can examine yourself at your leisure to see if my concern holds water, or you can ignore it forever. It's all up to you, I just found some of the things you said to be inaccurate or generalizing and wanted to politely bring up my concern because I know you also find this thing upsetting. For example you also get upset when people act like one alternative method is going to cure everyone forever, so I'm just asking you to acknowledge that some things that are ass nothing for you can be helpful for some people at some times. that's just an example. I'm just giving an example so that you understand where I'm coming from, even if you decide to ignore me. If that's the case, cool. All I wanted to do was politely bring up an issue that I see in you that I know you dislike in others so I figured you might want to improve yourself in that area. If not, for whatever reason, that is your purview. I am not telling you you're wrong or evil or stupid or anything like that, I'm not saying you need to follow my orders as if I'm the master of the universe. This ask has gotten really long but I just want you to know that I'm not being malicious in any way and if you figure that I'm mistaken at all, it was honest. I'm really sorry. In fact, don't answer this ask at all, you don't need to deal with it. I just wanted to put my concern out there.

#2 weirdest ask ive ever gotten

your example makes no sense. im not saying my experience is universal by "[getting] upset when people act like one alternative method is going to cure everyone forever", i say these things will not help EVERYone not they will not help ANYone. if i said anyone i would agree thats over generalising but i have not said that. i do not need to add an extra caveat to emphasise that these things do work for some people, the acknowledgement that it can help some is already there. if i didnt think alternatives worked for anyone i wouldn't include them on my harm reduction resource post, (in the past) my pinned, etc.

i do imply that most alternatives are not very effective. this is supported by research:

"Prominent themes that emerged from the qualitative interview data indicate that: (1) [alternative] strategies were viewed as ineffective, with some young people expressing reluctance to use such methods as well as concerns that they do not address underlying issues related to self-harm; (2) although some young people report [alternatives] to be helpful, this utility is limited to a short time frame or to situations where other methods of self-harm cannot be used; ..." (source)

(you can skip this entire paragraph im losing my mind rn) (i could talk forever about how this study's use of the term harm minimisation makes me want to die and how sane people view sh as only acceptable when its less visible and so the only acceptable harm minimisation/reduction for it is just. doing it less often/severely/visibly/etc. but whatever. just know harm minimisation/reduction for sh is sosoaososooo much more then alternatives or "strategies as a proxy" as these people had to put it to separate themselves from non academics and make their work less accessible (before you say im other generalising I'm talking about academia as a institution. like kneecap)(this makes like zero sense im so sorry i have not slept but i cant not bring this up)

now the specific post i think your referring to is thus one

and if you thought for a minute you might notice this post is a fucking vent on my mental illness blog. do you think when im doing really fucking bad i can think enough to slap on a disclaimer telling everyone "DW! YOU MIGHT NOT BE LIKE ME!!! YOU MIGHT SURVIVE THIS!!!!!!"? do you think i want to tack on the end a piece about how some people are just better then me in every sense of the word in my own and societies views? do you expect everyone to be 100% correct all the time?

if you want coherent thought and only coherent thought get off of shblr. just because sometimes i can make out a reasonable decent grammar argument with citations or whatever doesn't mean i am aalways that. lower your fucking expectations. its not hard tk tell the difference between fully thinking cvts and im trying really fucking hard not to kill themself cvts.

They can't examine themself and think about everyone else's situations all the time. I don't know who you think Cvts is but they aren't here for other people. They have a different blog for that. They are not here to examine themself or improve themself they are trying to keep themself alive. Just because Cvts does sometimes help people not every single post they ever make is advice and it is your problem if you are taking random posts from a self injury blog as advice. What posts are advice is very clearly indicated by their tone and the formatting. They are also tagged as "#harm reduction" or are on their harm reduction blog.

Cvts has said many times they do not want unprompted advice from strangers. They have spoken about their paranoia around morals many times and mentioned that they may have pure o OCD and that doctors have suggested it before. They already have their delusions telling them they are hurting people by everything they do. You saying over and over that you aren't calling them a bad person shows you clearly know that's what they're going to think (and if anything makes it worse).

You sound very similar to an anon Cvts got sometime around November. If you are the same anon block this blog and any future blogs Cvts makes.

opinions i have that maybe u should share

this is fully bc i was having a convo in a group chat that i think more people should know about

dont ship real people. this originally came up in an irl convo with someone im kinda friends with, and somehow we started talking Abt stray kids or smth, and she said something about shipping two of them and i immediately locked in and started telling her to not do that bc its weird to ship real people, specially celebrities. u dont know their life or their feelings. its also disrespectful to the people u r shipping. what if they like someone else but cant express it bc "the yaoi!!!". and maybe they do like each other, good for u, but if they dont, what then? fanservice? being awkward? its also bad for ppl u know. i will make exceptions if both ppl like each other and know the other likes them (smth in my friend group rn), bc then they actually reciprocate. but if u have friends and ur like "kiss, kiss, kiss, KISS, KISS, KISS!!!" they might start to distrust u, and distance themself from the other so they dont get shipped. its just disrespectful if they're real people. fictional? go wild long as its legal and not toxic.

respect ppl's beliefs. the amount of times my friends and i have had to remind this one dude (who I will call ay) that other people have different religions and political views is wild. even if u don't agree, its not worth getting in a fight. everytime someone around me is like "the day trump got elected was the greatest day for america" I'm like, "maybe for some, but ppl have differing opinions" while I wish I could spread my beliefs, but its a bit risky currently.

if ur not part of a group, do not speak for them. for example, Ay once started talking about choosing between Kamala and trump, and when asked why he chose trump, he talked about how trans women are just trying to sneak into women's restrooms or attack children and blah blah blah, and my response was, of course, "what stops men from doing that now? if someone was dead set on attacking women in restrooms, why would they transition for that?" how does this relate to the topic u may ask, but I then went with, "and I'm sure some generally are women. you're not trans, how do u know they aren't women and don't believe themselves to be?because because holy shit shut ur mouth, ur not a trans woman. I'm not either, complete oppisite actually (ftm), so I wouldnt speak for trans women. that'd be weird.

how u present does not equal ur gender. i personally present kinda femininely because i dont have a binder yet and still have a good amount of fem clothes, plus, extremely masc clothes are kinda ugly as shit. so u would probably look at me and think fem or enby. but that doesnt make me less of a guy. how u present doesnt make u any less of ur preferred gender or pronouns!!! u dont need to fit into the box that has been set for ur possible gender, because thats not made for u!!! u need to be u, not what ppl think of u. do what u want as long as it doesnt harm other or urself. present however u wanna, u know what u r and thats good enough <3

ur allowed to be basic. i see posts that r like "ure just like ever other bitch" and so what? every other bitch is hot. they look good. i dont care if its mainstream or some random tiktok subgenre, it is the clothes I wanna wear. what is ur problem with me liking clothes? u dont have to be unique. u dont have to be smth completely new. be like every other bitch. or don'. I'm not u. u r. who cares what i think? its ur body, ur outfit, and ur choice. not mine.

u dont have to know who u r. no matter if ur old, young, middle-aged, male, female, or smth in-between, u dont have to know. that is completely fine. u can be unlabled. u can be queer. it is whatever feels right to u. and if u dont know what feels right, u have a while to figure it out. ot maybe u never do. thats fine to. ur still u, and that's what matters. as long as u can not stress over it, it literally doesnt matter. be u. whether u is in a label or not.

i have more of these, but I'm now rlly irritated thinking of this, so I'm gonna stop before I smash my school laptop against the wall

do you have any advice for team building in tokyo debunker? im stuck at case 63 and cant prog in the story until i do it. i have almost 1.9m in power but cant even win victories over ~900k people 😩

UHHH okay my knowledge of this is like ... itty bitty .... but i will tell you what ive been doing & what i know for sure !!! :3 for both card + team building since they're kinda intertwined C:

so this will be under the cut LMAO

lets start with my ritsu card as an example because i love him. where do i even start . Okay.

so these are all your important Bits. awakening, lvl, and potential are all pretty basic, but warding cards, jewelry, the guardian spirits(?), and Skills are less self explanatory.

lets start w skills !!!!

once you press the skills button, something like this should come up. it looks overwhelming but in my experience literally the only thing that really matters is whether your card is a special attacker / physical attacker, and the card's passive skill.

although final stand is a different story...i didnt even realize he had that skill im so fake TT0TT its self explanatory though dw

the card's passive skill determined which slot it should be in on your team.

since shadowed glass has a passive skill that only goes into effect when the card enters from reinforcements, it's important that the card is in either the fifth or sixth slots of squad one or in any other squad after that. those are your reinforcements.

pay attention to revenge and entry skills!!! ritsu has an entry one but some characters apply a debuff once they get killed T0T

as for special & physical attacker, thats important for your warding card

see when i was just starting out i got in the nasty habit of just slapping whatever gems i had onto cards and yk, when you're a beginner player you need all the strength you can get so its actually totally fine to do that But. dont keep it that way. so yk if you have any cards you might have done that to GO CHANGE THEM!!!!

the formula i use is pretty simple tbh i build all the cards the same way.

-> for special attackers, which ritsu is !! i use a special attack gem, an attack gem, and an HP gem.

-> for physical attackers like my haru sr, i use a physical attack gem, an attack gem, and an HP gem.

i use the same gems for the jewelry too ... although i am unsure if thats the best method because i havent gone through each lvl 3 gem to see which one is the strongest which each piece yet so

YOUR FIRST PIECE OF JEWELRY IS HP AND YOU SHOULD ALWAYS UPGRADE THIS ONE!!!! SUPER USEFUL!!! ignore that i havent yet all my resources have been going to my luca card for now ANYWAY.

theres a REASON i havent upgraded this one though. the special attributes for this card are physical not special. ritsu is a special attacker. those skills would do basically nothing tbh. it's still beneficial to increase the potency grade nd stuff but not the attributes yk?

,,,,,,, AGAIN ALL MY RESOURCES ARE GOING TO LUCA HOLD ON. UPGRADE THIS ONE FOR RITSU. DO IT. its important to pay attention to special attributes and build your jewelry just as good as your warding cards that all im saying T0T

if you read all this i appreciate u. i still have more to talk about though so hold on.

LETS GO BACK HERE. go to your lil creature guys button above skills

yes i had to go back for screenshots after my player rank increased shhhhh we dont talk about it. ANYWAY. THESE GUYS ARE ALSO IMPORTANT WHO WOULDA THOUGHT!!

i need an ssr draco for my luca so badly . so this guy ups your special attack!! which is Good. obviously. you know that

I DIDNT TAKE SCREENSHOTS OF THE REST OF THEM FUCK. ok just trust me. lionheart (spiky guy in second slot) increases your attack state, and the turtle increases special defense. Yea i want to put a cleo on him for HP but i dont have one rn TT0TT

the order SHOULD be:

cleo (HP), lionheart (attack), then draco (special attack)

think of it like your jewelry order. they both should have hp first!! then attack then special / physical attack

this made me realize i need to go through my cards and rework some things oops.

Yellowjackets/IWTV Fanfic

So, about a week ago I put out a poll about doing a weird IWTV fanfic that's basically set in the Yellowjackets verse... And now I'm doing it... YAY!! but I do just want to come on here to basically throw around some things I'm going to do :P So this is going to be where I update people and just basically talk about how I'm going to do this, what my schedule is going to look like, things I need opinions on. This is more so a motivation thing so IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, please please please comment and follow along. I lose motivation quickly, but this is something I'm pretty dedicated to. but either way THIS IS HAPPENING.

______________________________________________________________

First things first. YES I have started working on it. Im not even close to finished with the first chapter because each chapter is going to be LONG. This is not going to be everything that happens in Yellowjackets happens in here, and not even close. Even as I started it... I will sometimes use direct quotes, but thats only if im stuck and cant figure out what im doing.

NEXT as I said this is not going to be yellowjackets word for word, but I will be using each episode as a starting point. scenes might mirror each other, and I will cut between scenes as they do in the show.

Some things that are automatically going to be different from Yellowjackets:

They will not be on a Sports team of any sorts. The one thing each character has in common, is that they all are passionate about one or more forms of art (ex: Louis: Photography - Lestat: Acting - Madeleine - Sewing and dress making and altering (not the right words sorry lol)) SO im having them go to an art school :P little bit of a long shot but not only is it just convinent for me because of all the art forms they like, but also I think it would be kind of cool for just normal (LMAO) IWTV kids who have never touched a sport in their lives to now have to like hunt and stuff... kind of Lord of the Flies with half of the kids being CHOIR KIDS core.

Theyre all gonna be in High school. i was like well im not aging them up cause what fun would that be, so lets just age them down and keep a whole bunch of that trauma and see what happens... and im not super far into the writing process but its working rn!!

Theyre crashing in the Alps. I have zero knowlege of the Alps whatso ever BUT i know i went over them when i flew to Italy so Im having them go to the Uffizi Galleries!!! and then BAM Alps. so get ready for some major inaccuratcies about that cause im gonna make them how they are in Yellowjackets... just in like Italy. Maybe I'll reasearch a bit more... dw about it its ok :D

As I said before each chapter is going to be LONG. so rn I have around 4ish scenes (ones not finished yet) and by the time I'm finished with those and edit it's going to be close to around 4,000 words I'm estimating... that's 4,000 words for not even a quarter of THE KIDS STORY LINE. on that topic, because each chapter is going to be so incredibly long, I've decided to split each chapter in about half. I was originally planning to do one chapter = one episode of yellowjackets but again it's going to be WAY too long, so kids' storyline, adult story line. I like that a lot too because a big pet peeve of mine is in stories where it keeps switching through times and then i get so lost and have to reread like 10 times to understand... LIKE PLEASE JUST SPLIT IT INTO A FEW CHAPTERS SO IM NOT CONFUSED

Last thing! Most of each character's backstory IS WORKED IN... so for example (A HUGE example) is for at least the first few chapters Armand will be called and referred to as Amadeo. Marius is his adoptive father who rescued him from some sex trafficking scandal or something and renamed him, before he eventually changes his name to Armand while out in the mountains. So, like obviously he's not going to get the name Armand from Santino, but you know... working in what I can :P

OK ACTUALLY LAST LAST THING: I don't know when this will come out... I have a deadline for myself and I'm certain I will get to it, HOWEVER I do not have access to the other Yellowjackets episodes, which is pretty crucial if I want to get into a schedule of posting each week regularly. As of right now I am hoping to get the first chapter out on October 3rd... Yellowjackets will be accessible to me AND then I'll be able to post a chapter on Halloween... YAY!! if that does not work out because the following chapters are taking too long and I release before I can make sure the Schedule is set, it will most likely be one of the Thursdays in October because I REALLY want to get one out on Halloween!!

OK!! hope you guys liked my little rant!! I'll keep everyone who's interested updated on here so if you want to be in the loop follow me (or don't! if you don't you can just check my page!) and again comments motivate me, so if you have any questions or just think it's a cool idea let me know!

Hi! I hope it's okay that I'm sending you an ask.

I was looking at some of your posts about diy clothing and things like that, and I've been really into diy/alt clothing for a while, and I've been wanting to maybe make my own, but I don't know where to start.

I want to start small since I'm actually terrible at art (every time I try to learn how to sew, it just ends in me giving up in frustration, for example).

Do you have any advice you could give me?

-Anon

hey anon!

asks are always welcome, i love answering asks so dont hestitate to reach out. sorry for the wait on this, ive been busy.

i made a post about this months back but cant find it atm so ill just make one again.

if sewing, as you say, is difficult for you, id advise starting with something that doesnt require sewing to train yourself in crafting.

an easy one is for example making armwarmers from old socks by cutting them off above the heel, and using the top part (that goes on your ankles and legs). cut a slit in that on the side for your thumb, and youre done. you can bleach nice patterns or anything on them. which will also teach you how to work with bleach.

some other things you can make/do without sewing are: chokers and cuffs from old belts, bottlecap buttons (i have made a tutorial on those, ill put the link in the comments), fishnet/see-through top from old thights, painting/bleaching clothes, making jewellry from safety pins, chains from soda tabs, and a lot more.

in the long run learning how to sew really is a good and useful skill, and i advise investing time in learning it. it allows you to make way more clothes and accessoires, and also helps when you need to fix up old clothes.

remember it takes time to learn these skills! ive been crafting constantly for about three years to get to the level i am at rn. and i still have a lot to learn too. dont be harsh on yourself when your projects dont turn out how you wanted/expected them to. thats all part of the learning process. look at where you can improve and try different techniques to see what works for you.

also! you are not terrible at art. the "aesthetic-ization" of diy and art as a whole is really bad imo cause a lot of people feel pressured that their diys need to look perfectly aesthetic or else they cant wear/make them. and thats not what diy is about! make whatever you want, and if someone tells you its ugly or not good enough they should get a hobby.

ehh i think thats it for now? let me know if you got any more questions. (again ill drop a link to the bottlecap tutorial in the comments)
