⚡️🐍⚡️ is so hard to like cuz ud wanna chill and think abt how to make them work but some of the ppl in it are so annoying that they sadly make u think of other pairs instead😭 like genuinely idc if u depict harry as the bottomest submissive omega ever or daddy dom top tom, if i have anything to say abt that ill talk abt it to my friends in private, cuz u do are allowed to rant without attacking ppl yakno. but i do have problems when they go in places they shouldnt be in (like those who like botTom or even switch ⚡️🐍⚡️ or even lit w a neighboring ship like ⚡️🍏) or annoyingly vague in twt

like bro 1. ure in hp how are u taking things so seriously for a book series w 84935 problems 2. 🐍⚡️ in particular has so many great artists and writers are u rly gonna spend ur time on things u Know u dislike and then shit on it when u discover that its still a thing u dislike

yasuo and ahri are not ship bait they are not fanservice they are LITERALLY!!!!! FUCKING MEANT FOR EACH OTHER. they are the only people who can understand each other’s pain. who can help the other get better. the only sides of this argument ive seen are “they’re only in ruined king and together because they’re popular, conventionally attractive characters” and “they like each other because they’re nice to each other” and, while both of these statements are fact, they do not in any way fully encompass their relationship.

first, we have to understand that yasuo and ahri’s relationship is about recovery. even putting the fact that ahri’s character serves as an allegory for addiction aside, we know that they are both deeply, deeply traumatized and mentally ill people. first of all, at several different points across league canons we can see that they suffer from severe post-traumatic nightmares.

second, they share very negative, unhealthy mentalities: they’re plagued by guilt, loneliness, utter hopelessness about their future, and self-deprecation because they believe their pasts to be entirely their fault, despite them being, largely, simply accidents or bad luck.

so they are both suffering people. this on its own is not really significant: virtually every league champion is traumatized in some way or another. but the thing that really drives the importance of their relationship home is the fact that their stories are just…fundamentally so similar.

yasuo and ahri are both people who have been ostracized from society their entire lives. yasuo was always seen as fundamentally “different” from other children, never fit in right, and was too wild for the people of his temple (which has a lot of implications. but that’s an entire other can of worms)—and when he was older, he was shunned as a criminal, and then, even after his name was cleared, as untrustworthy. and though she belonged at the beginning of her life, leaving her tribe meant leaving the safety and stability of vastayan civilization for the oppression and ridicule of the human one.

but even despite all this, the two of them always had someone who would be there for them: yone and ahri’s lover, of course. these were the only two people who understood them. who reassured when it came to their faults, who were always there for them. their family. and, of course, the two of them died by yasuo and ahri’s own respective hands. and so ahri and yasuo are all alone in a world that wants them dead, where they belong nowhere and have no one, where they blame themselves so deeply for everything that has happened to them that they cannot live with themselves. yasuo turns to alcoholism for comfort. ahri isolates herself so she will never harm anybody again. at least yasuo has taliyah for a short while, but it is inevitable when she leaves, too, reminding him that she will always have a family to protect, to come home to, and he never will again. they are so lonely and, in their minds, so deeply irredeemable, that they cannot form real connections with anyone.

and so their chance meeting is so fucking incredible for the two of them because they KNOW the feelings that the other is going through. they understand. and the thing is that their initial opinions of each other are not built off of the reductionist boxes that society has built both of them into: ahri does not know that yasuo is the unforgiven murderer because she does not spend time with humans. yasuo does not know that ahri is a vastaya because she is deliberately concealing her appearance. these are the two things that have MADE them so alone all of these years, and yet they get to know each other and learn to care for each other without these barriers in the way. and when they DO find out it means nothing, because they know what it’s like to be so isolated, and they will not martyr the other—even if they do it to themselves.

ahri goes to bilgewater to find out more about her family. yasuo leaves ionia because he is no longer shackled by his brother’s ghost now that he knows yone has returned to the living realm, NOT because he no longer feels guilt. ahri hires a bodyguard to keep her in check so she will not hurt humans upon her reintroduction to society. their meeting is purely coincidental.

and. of course. at the heart of the matter. they do “like each other because they are nice to each other.” because they have not felt kindness like that in so, so fucking long. they are the only people who show each other that gentleness. yasuo had taliyah but she was just a kid, a girl who was lost and lonely who he had to take care of. yasuo and ahri can take care of each OTHER. when ahri gets overwhelmed he is not afraid to touch her, ground her, ask her what’s wrong. when she brings up her loneliness he is the first to say you are not alone because we are here with you—i am here with you. when he fights his brothers ghost she knows what is happening right away. she knows he will be fine. she trusts him to make it out.

and i think that ahri saying that he reminds her of her dead lover is not superficial or clichéd—it shows how deeply they understand each other. yasuo is bitter and sad and lonely, sarcastic and oftentimes sardonic, but we know he wasn’t always like this. as a child he was overexcited, confident, young and free and loved his brother. he still is that person, in a way: deep down he is gentle. he treats his elders with respect and care. he finds a lost taliyah and his first instinct is to take care of her, to make up for failing his brother by saving her. he does not hate riven even after he finds out the truth, because he, too, knows the power misfortune can have. and ahri REALIZES all of this. BECAUSE THEY LOVE EACH OTHER. HE REMINDS HER OF HER DEAD LOVER, WHO WAS OUTWARDLY KIND AND GENTLE, BECAUSE SHE KNOWS WHO HE IS ON THE INSIDE. THE PERSON HE HAD TO BOTTLE UP TO COUNTERACT A DECADE’S WORTH OF LONELINESS. AND HE FINDS OUT WHAT SHE’S DONE AND HE ISNT AFRAID. BECAUSE HE KNOWS WHO SHE REALLY IS, TOO. HE KNOWS WHAT HER HEART IS MADE OF. HOW LOVING IT REALLY IS.

and, yes, it IS a little bit stupid that they’re in ruined king. i don’t necessarily think that their character growths relied on traveling to bilgewater; they easily could’ve been handled differently. and, yes, maybe they were initially paired up because they’re popular, attractive characters. but this is so small. so insignificant. when you consider what makes their relationship special. they are just what the other needed. they are what they need to heal. to look to the future with hope. and that means so much

[iron-sides]

its always amusing to me in fic when like, tim or dick (or to a lesser extent damian idk whats going on in his team-ups) go missing and only bats are looking for him. like girl if tim misses the weekly young justice get together batman is going to have 5 to 8 teens/children/adults (depending on if ray and traya come to these events and if reddy goes since trayas there. i think ray and traya are there i could take or leave red tornado not the point) knocking down his door demanding to know what hes done to their robin. and when they find out he's missing? they got together an ARMY to invade zandia when anita's dad was missing. an army. batmans going to have a meta on every street corner in three hours whether he wants them there or not like??? girl tim "unlike batman i have friends" drake is not only missed by the bats

idk the titans well enough to say anything specific about if dick went missing however i just dont buy that they wouldnt notice and i double dont buy that they wouldnt muscle their way into the search. like be serious.... donna troy? roy harper? wally west? garth whatever his last name is? kory anders? vic cyborg? gerfield logan? i dont know any other titans but do you think any of these people would mind their business. i dont know them so idk but like i kind of doubt it

I say this with no malice btw but reading old ask from this blog always makes me wonder if all those people who called me autistic were right

[feline-evil]

Being into some game series's is a constant cycle of going 'ok, ok maybe this'll be the one we'll be so back on, maybe THIS time it'll be good' and getting hit in the face w how joever it is hard enough to make your ears ring every time

[violentdevotion]

AMEERA op turned off reblogs on that map and i had so much to say in the tags and i need to share them with somebody SO sweden & finland are notttt innocent they’re racist enough to be some of thee whitest countries on that map 😭 and i don’t think italy deserves to be in the cuisine too good category but i’m aware i’m saying that on the pasta loving site so. personal opinion that title should be reserved for spain and southeastern european countries. thank you for ur time

what a pussy. also no ur right my fave pasta is the asian style pasta my mum makes with keema. like every time i liked italian food it's bc an Asian person was behind the wheel. also, i just read the futurist manifesto and remembered like italys like really fascist actuallly. Also also. russians are white. like ik SOME russians appear more asian and its eurasia and blah blah blah but you tell me to imagine a russian they're white. nordic countries inventing pillaging and getting away scot free bc they rebranded themselves with abba they can't keep getting away with this !!!

The closest ive ever gotten to feeling like his abt a band before mm was.. valkyrie but they only have like 12 songs afsgshsh

[emoangel44]

HI RAXZ IT TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED AS IT'S BEEN A WEEK BUT!!! DURING ALL THAT I DIDN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT YOUR FIC/S It's just one of those pieces of fanwork that leaves so much of an impression on someone, that it just ends up sticking and changing what you initially thought of a character, because of how well done the things most would just move aside or chalk up for simple reasons. you seem to be the only person who really does get Chara like no other, and I hope it's not strange to say you write them almost as if you know them or you are them that I'm sorta afraid nothing else will live up to how you written them and asriel in ur fan fic LOL but no matter... i will prevail. I love how you were able to portray charas self hate and self harm, i love how you didn't hold back on the ugly side of it and how far and disturbing it can be especially for someone as young as chara. There's just something so realistic about it that don't see alot anywhere else. 

I also like how you made asriel be childish, childish in a way a kid can be bratty or selfish(?) in the first half, that might not be a good descriptor but my puter is lagging from the many many words I've written for this ask so I'm making do </3 the point is you really know how to write these kids. Also enjoy that the tone of each fic is starkly different from one another, asriels pov feels grounded in comparison to charas inner thoughts

HOPEFULLY this all makes a little sort of sense, I've read both of ur fics three times so I'm praying it does, amen. ANYWAYS……. Love ur brain, would love to hear any thoughts you have on utdr in general if you ever decide to share em…. godbless. perhaps i couldve worded this better in a diffrent time but oh well, we ball. i hope u have a great day emoangel44🫡 will be looking forward for ur new utdr stuff

FIORE!!! i have been waiting for this day.. thank you so much. ive had several people say that i really get chara including like, literal veteran chara fans. its very nice to hear, theyre pretty important to me as a character. which is rather funny because the only analysis ive ever actually written on them that wasnt fanfiction was an essay on how i think theyre kind of actually a little poorly written LOL. to understand someone you have to know their weakpoints i guess... even if on a meta level.

for my asriel interpretation i try to incorporate a lot of "flowey-isms" as i say. the way i see asriel is that he was always a bit of a bratty, selfish kid that struggled with low empathy. he chooses to do what he thinks is right because he knows its right and not because it provides him with positive feelings himself... i think thats even more admirable. as opposed to this is think chara is high empathy which is part of the reason they did what they did. asriel is just way more of a people person than chara and so comes off as more understanding, charas just naturally a bit off-putting no matter how hard they try not to be.

chara and asriel are quite different people so i tried to make that clear in how i write their perspectives. chara is kind of stuck in their own head and lives in a world with walls of misery and think prose. theyre very direct but also very metaphorical. its a weird combination but it gets easier to write when taking in account their canon dialogues (one day youll get a fic from me with a more light hearted tone where chara will get to make their dog puns and nerd jokes. maybe). this is also the reason i write them with a strange mix of first and second person. it just feels natural for our narrator.

asriel on the other hand is much much more of an emotional person and is much less formal in how he thinks. he has a lot more filler words and "i-think"s and "i-feel"s and such.

i figure ill write a bit on what inspired each fic.

for my chara fic, i actually started writing it while bored in class. it was inspired a narration line in one of the fights in undertale, the one i used for the summary. the main thing i wanted to play with was metaphors and metaphors upon metaphors. mainly related to charas self hatred though the lense of soil and dirt and flowers and gardens because of course.

for my asriel fic, the main thing i wanted to play with was, quite obviously, writing from asriels perspective. i had already written 2 fics from charas perpective (the 1st one isnt as good as the other two and was mostly written as a characterization and perspective test) so i figured it was time to give him a turn, especially since it we only realy got a peak and asriels personality through charas eyes and i wanted to show it off more. the other thing that the fic ended up centering on is something my friend said to me about how they felt my chara characterization was screaming to be understood under all the hurt. basically the thesis of this fic is "asriel did not fully get chara but he was also the closest anyone ever got by a long shot which counts for something".

if youd like to see my other undertale stuff, here is some poetry ive written about chara (and asriel), here is my art tag which is full of stuff with them (alternatively, just use my undertale tag if you dont want art of anything else), here are my chara and asriel playlists that i always listen to while writing, and here is that chara essay i mentioned.

speaking of my thoughts on utdr... i actually dont post the majority of them. but id absolutely love to talk about them. so if you (or anyone else) have any questions about my thoughts on utdr or want to start a discussion about it Please do. Im actually begging you. i need more engagement guys send me asks. thank you for reading this absurdly long response

Just because someone’s bad at tone over text doesn’t mean you should come at them for not understanding you were joking? Especially if they are well meaning???? Reading comprehension is completely different from interpreting tone. As someone who is nd you struggle with telling if it’s a joke.

There are thing you could have done to make your intended meaning more clear. Tone tags, perhaps? A note in the tag, perhaps? Politely telling someone oh lol I was just joking instead of “some people can’t take jokes” PERHAPS???!?

like I misunderstood, but no need to be a asshole about it because I was overall polite and well intentioned in my response to you, and continuing to say I’m the problem when you were unclear is really rude and kind of ableist

cute
