There's this one specific sith obi-wan fic that is so so so wrong in just exactly the right ways. Absolutely filthy. Just dirty bad wrong. The tags are so 😳😳
Gives me tingles in my tummy. Anakin getting obliterated. 🫡
[<==PREV PAGES] [NEXT PAGE==>(not out yet.wait a year.or maybe more.imagine.]
saw alot of comments on prev pages; saying 'i HATE that mean teacher! im gonna FIGHT HIM!!' & i LOVE the energy!! it WOULD be nice. to have that catharsis. but the story of young tidestrider is Not one of catharsis. it is a story of being so small and so special and sucking so bad.
Kim dokja is the only character to consistently make me tear up (be it canon or a fanfic I AM WEAK)
Just mention something troubling him and ill be like 'noooooooooooooooOOOoo not again UEUEUEU' (knowing damn well this was what i was getting myself into from the start. Like please, kdj cannot have a break it, its as if its a part of his character to secretly be miserable while having everyone around him want nothing more than a genuine smile from him (and it is (basically texbook canon), really.))
Example: I've just read 10 long(ish? I like to read idk whats long anymore TT) chapters of yjh pov just hoping kdj would stop trying to shoulder everything alone, and would stop brushing away his care like it wasnt there.... Ending with yjh finally confronting him (basically in the form of a confession but yknow, theres more going on. it was kinda painful to watch, amen) and kdj just shuting him down like "youre mistaken about your feelings" AND LIKE. MANAGING TO SLIP OUT OF YKH'S LIFE IMMEDIATELY (he ran away #typical)
Now, i know damn well kdj has been hiding many things from yjh. Even yjh knows BUT I KNOW BETTER THAN YJH. BUT EVEN IF I KNOW BETTER, SINCE ITS YJH POV, IM AS IN THE DARK AS HE IS, SO. COOL. But i just know ill be able to fucking sympathise for the squid bastard because when have i ever been able to blame kdj for anything after learning about his side of things (bro is complicated in every universe, but i love him for it UGH)
All of this to say, when the author's note (after kdj fucking being dismissive and withdrawn and running away from #looove&peaace✌️) said "I can't wait to write KDJ's POV. If it crushes everyone, then it'll be a job well done," I GOT TEARY EYED JUST FROM ANTICIPATION. And i know from experience of reading (the)orv(™) and other fics that IF THIS IS WRITTEN WELL (and until now it's been written well enough to my liking /hopeful /pos), I WILL get all emotionnal really quickly and cry at the stupidest thing just because its kim dokja and he deserves the world.
So yeah, wish me luck 👍 (both so the fic keeps being good and for my poor soul..) ty
--- the fic !
(fic is 'Surely it Was Fate' by an [Anonymous] author on ao3. Its 800k+ words and I'm only 10/105 chapters through so I am reluctant to recommend it yet, but until now its been good so im crossing my fingers for the rest lol.)
So, I was initially planning on saving this for whenever it is that I finish chapter 6 of Dearly Departed, but it's occurred to me that I may as well post this here, now.
Uh, basically: I'm not writing as much as I used to.
Which is a very silly thing to say, it feels like, because before November I was writing nothing. But TGCF has really inspired me to write stuff! And I have been so touched beyond words at the response my fics have gotten. I try not to let people's opinions influence how I feel about my writing(or myself), but it's been very heartwarming.
Anyway, for the past few months I've been practicing writing every day. Up until maybe the middle of January, I was writing probably an average of 1-1.5k words a day. Which is a lot. (Dearly Departed in particular I was working on every day for like a month and a half straight.) And it felt really good, but quite frankly, it's not sustainable. I don't even mean that in a burnout way (although I did hit that with Dearly Departed, which is one of the reasons why it's been a while without an update), I just mean that I can't maintain that level of enthusiasm forever. I really like writing fic, but eventually my brain just wants to do other things. Also, I've been unemployed, which should finally be changing soon. I'm about to have a lot less time in my schedule.
So what am I saying? What's the point? Basically, I want to just put it out there that I'm not writing as much as I was before. That probably means slower updates. I'm not doing a schedule or anything, and I'm not dropping anything, but it's basic cause-and-effect, y'know?
Okay i have yet to see a post about this that isnt filled with ppl being Annoying as Fuck on it, but,
theyve found wreckage of the submersible, it imploded (thank god, thats better than a drawn out suffocation over the course of several days, implosion means it was pretty much instantaneous) and the us navy have revealed they heard a weird sound on sunday from about where communication with the sub was lost, that was probably the sound of the implosion, [implied that they didnt say anything cos they didnt want to jump to conclusions without evidence of a wreckage, if there was a chance they were still alive.] no idea what the banging sounds were.
I do hope rescue efforts are extended to the migrants off the coast of greece, and am angry and horrified at their mistreatment, and that the media clearly cares less for their fates than that of the billionaires on the sub.
also, while i have you here,
The difference between a submersible and a submarine is not that one is safer. The titan was a submersible that was unsafe, but that is not because it was a submersible.
A submarine (or sub) is a watercraft capable of independent operation underwater.
A submersible is a watercraft designed to operate underwater, usually supported by a nearby surface vessel, platform, shore team or sometimes a larger submarine.
submarines generally dont go as deep as our deepest submersibles, but some can be down there for months at a time bc it is like. a self sufficient Ship. not all submersibles can go crazy deep, but to my knowledge, the only crewed vessels that can go that deep, are submersibles. (Alvin, deepsea challenger, limiting factor, trieste, fendouzhe or "striver").
A faint melody tickled Sky's ears, not dissimilar to plucked harp strings. “Nothing,” he mumbled to himself and nudged the goat back into motion. It snorted.
A handful of guards watched the road. Among them stood an elderly gentleman in puffy sleeves and red robes. A feathered beret rested on his head, arranged with studied carelessness. Sky recognised him from his time at the Temple; this was one of the royal advisors.
“Gentlemen!” The advisor spoke in a nasal drone. He stepped into their path. “Sir Sky and —” He hesitated, looking Fledge up and down.
“My squire,” Sky supplied.
“Indeed.” The advisor smiled politely and inclined his head towards Sky. “I have been sent to guide you to the castle. Her Royal Highness, the Queen, is most eager to welcome you, and wishes for you to lodge in your old quarters.”
“Thank you.” Sky smiled. “Will the Prince be present?”
“The Prince is currently unavailable.”
“I see. When will he be available?”
“I could make an enquiry into his schedule when we arrive at the castle.”
“That would be wonderful, thank you.”
The advisor folded his arms behind his back. “Shall we?” His smile remained polite.
“Lead the way.”
A horse awaited the advisor through the gate. He climbed into the saddle.
As they made their way through the main streets, Sky fell in next to him. “It’s been some time since my last visit. Have there been any significant changes?”
“Castletown is a prospering city; many changes take place.”
“Of course.” The larger buildings looked mostly the same: magic items, weaponry, bookshops, and trading hubs. Others were new: a herbal house, a clothes store, a crafts shop. “I heard you were hoping to set up trade with the mountain rangers? How has that gone?”
The advisor’s smile tightened at the corners. “Slower than anticipated.”
“They’re not interested in creating a connection?”
Especially because in the end... Arakawa loses his son in small ways that just Accumulate... but Jo's the one who even gets to outlive his son... AUGH. THROWING MYSELF INTO A WOODCHIPPER
Also while going through old messages, I saw I actually had a dream back in 2021 that Jo came back in LaD8. I mean sure he had "longer hair" and "a new outfit NOBODY liked except me" and was Unserious like RGGJo whereas in the actual teaser he sounds more depressed than ever but I'm still taking credit alright... the vision came to me...
And in a Hell Will Freeze Over Before This Happens I Just Like To Think About It way. I want him in my goddamn party and I have for all of Y7 so it's not related to the new game. I don't care. I want to find out what his favorite flowers are I want to take him to Every Movie and get his commentary on all of it I want to take him out to eat and watch his little itadakimasu animation play out I want to have the most light-hearted and inconsequential conversations and I want him to chime in I want to exhaust every option on his Drink Link I want to unlock his sickass tag-team moves I want to wear True Hero and fight by his side I want to shower him with so much love and affection he won't know what hit him (<- channeling Arakawa tbh)
its just insane because from a metaphorical sense arakawa 'outlives' masato in that he becomes aoki and like. That's One Thing, but then Of Course. There's Jo. //stuffing my mouth with wet cement// like OHHHH the pain never stops it never ends,,
mate i think your brain was just tryna manifest RGGJo to make a come back through y7 ☠️☠️ CREDIT WHERE CREDITS DUE THO BUT DAMN would have been. THE MOST interesting change to his character though.... on the real.... because yeah he just sounds so tired from the trailer so far (;´д`)would be hilarious if instead of entering a Super Depression arc bro's just. Yeah Alright Fuck It. What Can We Do Now Amirite. walk right out the cell with the white suit and snake-patterned lapels and all ☠️☠️
OK BUT MOST VALID RANT EVER. MOST VALID WANT EVER. would really just have the vibe of dragging your jaded uncle around the city i would died to have that,,, 😭😭
If I see one more video on tiktok or insta where a guy with a mic is asking ppl to rate themselves(especially the ones that u can tell are aimed at girls) ill start fucking tweaking.
Did we learn nothing from that one Liv and Maddie episode???
