#isnt it strange to create something that hates you

"Isn't it strange to create something that hates you?"

Here is my second (and last) piece for @sthbigbang!! It was such a blast making this and it brought me out of a severe case of art block! Working with everyone was also an absolutely wonderful experience :]

I look forward to next year!! Everyone did an amazing job!!!!!

‼️ Important stuff below the cut ‼️

Please please PLEASE go read the fic by @sodapop !! Its so cool and its about Metal gaining sentience and exploring his human(mobian?)ity, which is such a cool concept! I'm also just a sucker for robot characters Going Through It and a huge Metal fan :]

The author worked really hard on this and their work definitely payed off! PLEASE GO SUPPORT THEM 💖

Here's a lil preview of it, which is also the excerpt I based the comic on!!

[ "When he woke up this time, he remembered. That seemed likely to be an error of some sort. This was likely unintended. This had been the third time he had been rebooted. This time the memory wipe was unsuccessful. This time he remembered the commands entered to wipe his memory, his hard drive, completely. A quick scan of his code showed that the commands had been used two times previously and were successful then but this time had not been so. This was odd. Even stranger, no one seemed to notice that this memory wipe hadn’t worked.

Instead this time he remembered. He remembered everything entered into his command log prior to being sent out on the previous mission. A mission he failed. He remembered the kill codes, backlogs, and data arrays encrypted into his source code, information that for all intents and purposes should have been wiped clean. There should have been nothing left of him, whatever that once was. But in place of a blank slate, his memory files remained. Fresh within them laid the recording from his last mission, his latest failure. He couldn’t draw back on his previous failures, a reasonable assumption, as the data wipes then had been successful and all that remained of those instances were the backlogs showing the memory wipes happened at all.

That search, proving worthless, led him to revisiting the videos that somehow inexplicably remained of the last mission. He had failed this time, like he concluded he must have done two times before. He had lost to the blue creature he was made in the likeness of. This creature was fast beyond what his rockets and motors then could handle. The blue being packed a heavy punch and ruthless kick. It also didn’t pull its punches either. Its blows all but destroying him during their battle, leaving him in scraps by the end. He couldn’t feel pain. That was beneath him. But the memory of his exposed wires, missing leg, and punched through motor in his chest caused his fans to spin faster than ever. The whirring sound building as he slowly sat up from the work table he was laid on." ]

Huge shoutout to my fellow artist @starzdeath for their AWESOME piece of angst they made, especially on a time crunch!! It really captures Metals emotion and it looks so sick :3

Thanks for the great experience everyone!!

I have V.A.N stuck in my head

[sharksandjays]

Wow i got a lot more support about it than I thought i would so…NINJAGO OC TIME!!!

A little information first: These OCS are part of a plot me and my friend have come up with that takes place after the Merge, after DR pt2.

Lars was created by my friend @the-chaotic-anon !!! Theyre the one who did all this with me :)

Now here they are!

And now, some info:

- Fynn used to be a student of sensei Yang, and was actually with him when the whole fiasco with Nadakhan happened (He was really young) He ended up wishing for his humanity and for his fellow students be safe. Little did he know that that would mean that theyd be safer without him…and so they were cursed to forget him. Something even his elemental power of memory cant fix. So he has a hatred for a certain djinn, but also for a certain elemental master of lightning that failed to save him and his family.

- Due to his power, Fynn remembers all of Skybound

- Fynn joined a gang and immediatley regretted it but could not escape safely. He ended up basically using his power to manipulate the ninja (before the merge) and then make them forget him, and then use their memories to lead them to the gang so they could take them down and he could be free. They dont know this, and only remember him as a villain that would manipulate them. They HATE him.

- Lars cannot remember their past…how strange?

- Lars is the new elemental master of form, inherited from the old one who died under…mysterious circumstances. They feel like they had a part in it but dont remember why.

- Lars’ elemental powers cause them to melt…a lot. They become stretchy but also liquid like. Its tied to their emotions and its really stressing them out.

- Lars’ best friend is Fynn. He has been there since their memories mysteriously dissapeared. They are suspicious of him. Hes hiding things

- Lars left to join the ninja after the merge, specifically Zane, who was the only one home, seeking training of their newfound powers

- Fynn only joins when (SPOILER OF DR PT2) Jay is brought back by Cole, remembering nothing. Lars tells them they know someone, and seek out Fynn to bring his memories back.

- Fynn tells them he has to fight Jay to bring his memories back. The quick touches help Jay remember and keep Fynn from feeling the full brunt of it. Its a brutal fight. They are pulled apart. Jay remembers

-They get news that the gang Fynn used to be apart of is back. Fynn cant leave the ninja for fear of his life.

- Jay hates that kid, but hes tasked with training him

- Lars runs into a former member of the gang, but instead of killing them, the gang member just smirks. Tells them theyre looking for a certain teapot. And that Fynn isnt telling them the whole truth

I think thats enough for now. Lmk if you want more or have questions! And have some doodles and funny things as thanks for reading this far

[prongsandpetals]

no one asked for this but i’m saying it anyway because i am tired of this grandpa.

i dont hate jegulus or their shippers. personally, it doesnt make sense to me and my moral compass trickles into fiction meaning i dont have much interest in any of the slytherins. it could also be the fact that when people would create oc’s for james in their fics 10 yrs ago and made lily a raging bitch id be fighting them all in the comments- a fight or flight response that now has spread to jegulus- but thats neither here nor there. it brings people joy and they are fictional characters, and it doesnt physically hurt anyone!

but there is something to be said about some of the less savoury implications it has had on the fandom. it feels as though jily is in its own subfandom sort of pushed to the side, leaving two mlm ships to dominate. unfortunately a lottt of female characters have been forgotten or pushed aside because of this. a lot of people who joined the fandom not that long ago either dont know or forget that this fandom was not built on either wolfstar (who i love), or jegulus. yes, they popularised them, but this fandom has revolved around jily for over 10 years. not to mention many of these fics were written from lilys pov, meaning there was so much more depth put into the girls characters. to erase this is to erase the fandoms history.

the diversifying of characters is something amazing that has come more recently with the popularisation of the fandom and thats one of the good parts!! however if someone still views aaron taylor johnson as their james, that doesn’t make them a racist - the man has been james since at least 2006.

another (smaller) thing ive seen is someone will post a song or a photo and attribute it to a jily moment with harry that we can realistically see happening canonically and a comment will say something along the lines of: “this but its how james felt when regulus (insert something that did not happen here)” idk if its the autism but god those always get me a little bit, especially when it includes harry.

similarly, it feels as though people who ship jily are assumed to be less progressive. as a lesbian jily shipper i can’t disagree more. just because a ship is a straight ship does not make it a bad ship - i think we can all agree there are so many amazing LGBTQ+ ships out there now for everyone to enjoy. it does feel quite strange to me to place the two characters who created the child that there are seven books about into different ships, but people like them so its chill!! but when its just complete eradication or discontent with the canon ship… ;(

i also think that to have jegulus be endgame (except aus), a lot of james’s insanely important character traits literally HAVE to be erased. his hatred for death eaters and fight for justice, his unending loyalty to his friends - especially sirius- his black and white view on right and wrong, all of these traits become warped and stretched when it comes to jegulus. of course there isnt much canon to go off of so when people disregard it entirely i can understand it to a degree. but when you erase the important canon points we have on their characters, we are basically just creating oc’s with real characters names.

another thing that i find irksome is the fetishisation of these mlm ships- if youre gonna ship two men together do it right!! why are you calling regulus a cute little baby victim and james a big strong protector!! let them be complex and messy or dont do it at all! not to mention the erasure of a lot of wlw ships... lowkey gives girl who has gay boy best friend that thinks lesbians are weird… anyways off topic! ive heard people say its not fetishisation, its because the female characters arent written with depth- that’s why people read jegulus and wolfstar! okay? go give the girls some depth? regulus is a character we basically know nothing about canonically and youve turned him into a fully fleshed character who is now a lot of peoples favourite - it can be done with the girls too. there is such emphasis placed on wolfstar and jegulus for their deep, tragic love stories - and the marauders friendship in general. the gryffindor girls are right there. dorlene is right there. marylene is right there.

and if it truly werent fetishisation, i would argue that it can be a romanticisation of toxic relationships. a lot of people dislike jily because there is no “angst”. the angst is fighting in a war at 21 years old. the angst is lily and james’s differing blood statuses and the implications this has on their lives. the angst is having a prophecy hanging over their unborn child’s head that forces them into hiding. the angst is being betrayed by their best friend, leading them to sacrifice themselves for their family and the wizarding world. the angst is literally right there, but because their relationship is healthy and happy- one of the only things in their lives that is not full of pain- they are deemed boring.

again, i dont hate jegulus. i especially dont dislike anyone who likes the ship and gets something out of it. but there is so much change this fandom has gone through since their introduction and popularisation that has made interacting with the fandom as a whole almost unbearable sometimes, and thats what i do hate.

all in all, multishippers definitely have the most fun.

Isnt it strange to create something that hates you?

Hi pacific rim fandom Im back. I did this in 30 minutes with sharpies, coffee i shouldnt have had, and a prayer. I really need that replacement part for my tablet, man...

[gladosluver]

they flamin me for my tierlist but i brought a fire extinguisher [100 emoji]

[this is outdated. check pinned]

currently in the process of reading/playing dr: kirigiri, thh, and kirigiri sou. this'll probably change as i get further into it. killer killer will come immediately after

i think gladosluver likes danganronpa zero and dr3... just a hunch tho. i LIKE the student council okay. they needed more screen time i miss them all. i should make a fic of them

anyways im convinced the fucked-up crawling monokuma was created to make atheists believe in hell. i hate that thing. fighting it was such a pain in my non-existent ass. beast monokuma would go there too but i think its really cute and fuzzy so totes adorbs free pass

ryota mitarai you're such a little nocturnal narcoleptic unhealthy shriveled wet pathetic creature please never die.

soshun murasame you are SO fucking lame and strange i love you with all my heart

yasuke matsuda. yasuke MATSUDA 💜

kyoko you were actually super helpful and kicked death in the ass love you please never change that goergrorus hair colour

izuru kamukura you are me. you look like me and it's scary

i actually didnt even HAVE a hate/dislike category until after i played despair girls. goodness gracious if that doesn't say something idk what does. good game when it isnt being written by freaks

so sorry old people i lied im not even sorry but i dont like old people im sorry old people lovers. they give me A Vibe that i cannot seem to shake. my divine intuition

[cherry-dr0p]

Can they meet other characters? Like ocs??

OCS YOU SAY??? >:3

Little do you know, I've created a whole AU(?) in my head where the crew accidentally ends up in my OC's universe, and this just gives me an excuse to share it

I've heard like,, 2 people wanted me to draw my OCs meeting the Shinsei-Maru crew (excuse me if I got that name wrong) but buckle in! Because I have a hell of a bunch of things to say

So, the AU starts off with a boat trip gone wrong. How about the crew accidentally end up in a whirlpool of some description? I unno something along those lines. They believe they're gone for good until after their demise, where they wake up in a strange world that isnt their own.

Andrew Blyth + Kenji Noda

The first two that meet are the two smartasses, Kenji and Andrew (Also his children - Amarisa and Dion). Kenji wakes up in a bed that isn't his own. He is confused until he sees two children staring at him - ones he doesn't know. Before he gets a chance to speak, the children beckon over presumably their father - a blonde angel. He doesn't look as if hes from this time frame, with a rather old timey-esque outfit. The first thing Kenji notices is that he's surrounded by a bunch of angels, which would understandably startle him. However, as they eventually calm the panicked human down, they begin to talk. To keep it short, they realise a couple of things.

1. Kenji and Andrew seem to have quite a few things in common

2. Kenji ended up in a strange world, and expresses concern about his friends. Seeing as Andrew's occupation consists of studying alternate universes, he reassures Kenji that it's likely they ended up elsewhere.

From then, Kenji is determined to find his friends.

Markus/Mazzul + Koichi Shikishima [+ Akiko]

I haven't exactly decided how Akiko ends up there, but I would like I think Shikishima, Akiko, Markus(the angel) and Mazzul(the goat demon) should all meet. Of course, Like Kenji, upon first waking up in a strange place and seeing supernatural beings like these two, with Akiko in hand, he freaks out. Unlike Kenji who is just heavily concerned, Shikishima is terrified (which notably makes Akiko terrified too, seeing her father fearing for his life). Both Markus and Mazzul reassures Koichi that they aren't going to harm him, despite it being Mazzul's job (Mazzul isn't that interested in collecting human souls since they're more fragile in my universe). As so, they begin to speak with the angel and demon asking about Akiko, where they are and where Koichi came from etc. It's also revealed that Mazzul and Markus were once both in the war as American Soldiers, which concerns Koichi but hey, the war is over. Koichi begins to lightly mention the same thing about him ending up somewhere and his friends being elsewhere. Despite Mazzul's hesitation, Markus suggests they should go look for them. Koichi is eager and despite Mazzul's reluctance due to how dangerous it might be, with Mazzul having a theory of where he could be, he agrees to follow along. But only to stick by Markus and make sure he doesn't get harmed.

Sam Blyth + Shirō Mizushima

Next up, Shiro and Sam. Now, when Shiro first meets Sam, it's Sam who is rather scared. Sam hates meeting new people as the idea terrifies them, but Shiro's goal is to reassure Sam that he isn't a threat, in which he manages. Sam begin to quietly question Shiro on how a random human ended up in their house, and he, of course, explains. Afterwards, Sam suggests that his friends might be around and-- you get the idea. However, Id say throughout their journey, they become best friends :3 I mean,, they are both quite a bit younger than their peers and is seemed weak, but is quickly thought to be underestimated. They bond quite a bit, and seem to get along together really well.

Discord Holloway + Yōji Akitsu

Imagine waking up in a random castle locked up by a demon, just to find that when he's not working, he is very immature and talks a lot compared to when he's working where he's actually terrifying? Thats where Akitsu has ended up at least. Unlike the others, he doesn't have the sort of luck they did. Discord immediately sees him as an intruder and locks him up (It's also extra fun when he's a human, as theyre less likely to successfully fight back. Discord's opinion, not mine :<). He thinks he's going to be in danger but instead, the demon just talk a LOT. Which is arguably worse than death in Akitsu's eyes.

Anyways yada yada they all meet up, heartfelt moment, they find out Akitsu's with Discord, they save the day and get them out safely and Andrew takes them back home, yknow, the cliche stuff. I dont have much to say about this part.

However, it's definitely an experience they'd remember.

Anyways, that's that! Thank you so much for the ask :3 Ive spent 3 days on this and had lots of fun making it :O

It was an awesome way to introduce my OCs to my Tumblr acc too.

A bunker.. -are you guys like evil? -why would you say that? -arent bunker people like, evil and crazy over power? -ive escaped from one, i was almoust dead when i came to another bunker opening, there ive meet Michael, he helped me, hes a good guy -huh, so you guys are fine? -you can say that, we wont cause no harm -alright then, i will hold your secret -good, otherwise i will bit your face off -WHAT?! -just kidding!

9 hours later

Michael finaly wakes up, a bit puzzled on how he have fallen asleep but still happy that he finaly did, he notised something tho, he felt diffrent, not only refreshed but more weard in a seanse, he sat down and little bit unraveled his bandages that covered his power lens and he notised something. The lens glowed brighter and something strange happend once he activeted it, previously there was only an orb but now the orb had an closed eye, Michael poked the eye and it opened up.

-Welcome [A_Michael]! -w-what? What are you? -i am your lens guide! Please allow me to introduce your new system logs, you mech has allowed you to acces about 50% more of your systems! -what is happening, why werent you awake the first time? -i wasnt active silly!

I tho i got to say, dont you think theres too much on them? -i dont wanne talk about it - Michael said in a little agresive voice, the Guide covered his eye and scuried a bit away from Michael, Michael then looked a bit worried and he was saying again in a calm voice -whats wrong? -...y- you arent hitting me? -why would i? You where just curious -well yeah, but we arent allowed to be curious -what do you mean "we"?, Are you connected to other lenes? -we are.. in a sort of hive mind, we can comunicate with eath other, but they disconected everyone, only few are still online but they chose to be quiet, but i can still seanse the distress calls from everyone bellow... -im sorry, it just im not used to talk about them -can you tell me something? -what is it? -are all bunkers that terrable that you have so many wonds? -i guess so, they all are mad, they hurt you mentaly and phisicly, but how can you remember it? -the mech that they put me in gave me vision, they created something that looked like a hive of sadness and pain, and also seam to be digging for something.. -maybe materials -maybe, im sorry its just i thot that youd be bad and... -hey its ok, at lest we arent in thos hell holes anymore -yeah OH! -whats that? -youve got a message from your mech! -his name is Volt if you must know -ill make sure to note that, opening the message now - Guide opened a screan that looked like a group chat room.

-Michael is awake? -how do i.. interact with this pad? -you can ither say it or type it down hire -oh -yes, where are you? -downstairs, everyone hire, they dont see me now, chatting with you. -well im going there.. -wait you must know something -what? -Vanessa knows. -what? -OP cant speak no more! They getting suspisious. -what do you mean she know? -... -hello??

-he disconected -great, well thanks for your guidance but youll need to hide -right, have a good day! -bye.. - Michael puts back the bandages back in theier place, to hide the lens and then he gets up, he still wonders what Volt could mean by that? But he shrugs it off for now, he walks to the door and opens it.

After exiting and closing the door behind he hears a some people talking downstairs, he also hears disfigured dog barks, he slowly walks down stairs, to be unexpected meet with a suprise from the cealing.

-Boo! -Hello? -ugh your no fun -what are.. thos things? -oh yeah, meet my forever friends! One with the lashes is called thorns and the other one is petels -weard names but alright -rude.. HEY EVERYONE, THIS DUDE IS UP - after screaming that Rose abd her pals returned to the void hole.

Frank is a great guy, Niko is a bit weard but well get along eventually - Michael got closer and whispered -what did you mean by that text of yours -youll find out soon -what? -Im ready! Lets go -oh yeah, lets go - Michael and Vanessa walk outside and imidietly as the door closes Vanessa starts a small, quiet chat -so your from a bunker huh? -WHA. Um yeah?? -its.. Really cool! How was there? -you arent disguasted? -why would i be? You seam like a really nice guy! I thot only assholes and people who think they are the highes come from there -i mean.. your right there are only assholes how there -oh, so everyone is right about bunkers, how did you got out - i found the last master key, and just left -nobody nosided you? -nope -left just like that -heh, so you know nothing about the outside? -i know nothing -oh boy you got a lot to learn.

Then Michael and Vanessa chatted about how diffrent theier lifes where, it was no suprise to Vanessa that life in the bunker can and is difficult, but to Michael life outside was a pretty big suprise.

-so, what do you think of this place? -its fine, better then a bunker -yeah, your probobly right. Say you straight went from your bunker to this city? -we first tryed to went to a bigger city, but someone told us that it dosent exsist anymore and that there was only "man eatting grass"? -oh, you went a little too far, what did you did then? -the guy gave us a lift to a vault, and it showed us where to go, and hire i am -intresting, ive been hire almoust all my life, its a pretty nice city for the most part -im still pretty new to the world you can say -yeah you are, you can also say that you where in a whole other world -heh, yeah... Are we like, friends now? - i guess so, a little bit forced because Volt told your whole bunker stuff, and the lens stuff too, but dont worry about it -HE EVEN TOLD YOU ABOUT THE LENS?! -Hush! People can hear -oh yeah, im just a little mad that it had to come out this way -at least you can trust me, cuz now your friend -im still not sure, in the bunker people would lie, tell behind your back and do a bunch of other stuff -hey, its not the bunker anymore, i know what i say is going to sound weard to you, but you need to let go of what happend -i know, but its difficult, it will take some time for me to forget -i know, but im sure that it will make you feel better -thanks.. -wanne grab some ice cream? -sure! I havent tasted them in ages -REALLY? Thats a crime! -haha.

They both went near a park to buy the ice cream and to sit down, Vanessa treated Michael to some lemon and blueberry scoops wail she got a vanila with too many cheries.

-soo should i know anything else about living hire? -do you know about the titan threats, by any chance? -Wh. Of course not! What are thos?? -well, one titan that you can see from time to time is the one thats carrying the sun -so the sun is fake now? -well, since we are hire forever and i guess the world is infinite something has to shine light, a normal sun couldnt exsist. Oh and it somehow disapered, i dont know why -weard... So what are the other titans? -well there is one in the ocean, it resembes like a gigant worm thats made from flesh, gives me the creeps when i think about it -has it been hire? -a few times, our defances always scare it off, but its been silent for the past 12 years now -maybe it died -i dout it, they are few of the creatures that where given imortality by the time substance -dam, are there any others? -well there are about 13 more but they are beyond the grass -there is something past it? -yeah a whole other world, many metal citys are there. Not gonna lie, its pretty easy to just fly over it -i figuret.

-have you consideret what you wanne do? -what do you mean now? -well, like a job, you know? -i havent thinked about it, hmm -have you consideret working at the adventurer guild -a little, but i wanne get used to the new place first, you know, nothing too fast -oh yeah. Also its getting kinda late -oh yeah, we should get back -yeah, and as i promised i wont tell no one that your from a bunker, or that you have a lens -yeah, again thanks for keeping my secrets -no problemo!

They both started walking back to theier house, Michael, despite his past experiance, really enjoyed company of Vanessa. He feels somewhat safe around her. Vanessa also enjoyed todays day, she Was going to show more but since the darkness aproched, she wouldnt risk it.

-hello everyone, we are back! -good, you both had a nice day? -yeah been around town, showing Michael stuff -oh ok, i wont boder you for now -where is Volt? -oh, he desided to stay with me for some time,hope you dont mind that -oh, no its alright -we gonna go now -alright, bye.

Vanessa and Michael both enter theier room -emm, where is the bathroom? -oh! Door to the left at the beguining of the hallway -thanks -ill go change, it wont be long -alright - Michaels enters the bathroom and looks at him self in the mirror, the thouth to him self, that hes gonna be finaly happy hire

-Hello Michael, i hope i dont bother you with anything but Volt whats to chat -alright give it hire.

-arent you worried? -i mean dudes a mechanic so i guess its good -as you say,ill be going now -goodbye -see ya!

-MICHAEL. -yeah? -HELP. -whats going on? -THIS DUDE WHATS TO UPDATE ME -so whats wrong with that? -WHAT IF HE FINDS OUT. -... then we are gonna live with it i guess -HELP I DONT WANNE. -Volt listen i know that your scared, but think about this,you probobly been in a bunker for many many years, and your software Must be upgraded -I KNOW. -then why are you afraid? -IVE NEVER HAD AN UPDATE. -dont worry, if he does anything bad to you let me know -OK.

*from behind the door* -Michael who are you talking to? -eee *whisper* should i tell her? -do what you think is best -*sigh* fine. You wanne know? -if you what you. can tell me -go to the living room, ill go there soon -alright? - he hears her foot steps walking away before hearing her sit on the bed.

[reylistic-enigma]

Tumblr deleted my drafts and didnt let me write anything nicely about 6 times and I actually give up

I hate typing on tumblr and I lost my progress.

ALRIGHT SO this doodle depicts two characters. Kuro-Kita (right) and Frey Dempsey (left) (13 yrs old?)

The main situation is that this (a concept-ish) of Frey and Kuro-Kita’s meeting after around 7-9 months of not seeing each other. Especially after the kids and their friend group fell apart and all but abandoned their hangouts and connections to the Kurome World-

KUROME WORLD: A parallel dimension/world which is accessible by certain gateways. It seems to be an amalgamation of the world, put together like random game assets. Imagine Liminal Spaces, The Backrooms(?), or possibly the logic of AI slop

-Now let me explain Kuro-Kita First!

Kuro-Kita’s real nickname in the story is “Nakita” but I refer to her as Kuro-kita in order to make a distinction between Freys fictional persona “Nakita” and the Kurome who plays her/uses the character as their identity.-

Kurome: Strange creatures from the Kuro-World that basically observe, copy, and replicate. They yearn to learn and become something more. They have the ability to effectively shapeshift using their bodies and are able to release gas using their body mass that puts “illusionary fumes(?)” Into the air basically that can cause guided hallucinations of some sort. Most Kurome take on the forms of things they observe like animals and dedicate themselves to understanding how they should play that role as there is nothing much to do in the Kuro World (its pretty empty without all the stuff they've copied)

-Kuro-Kita and Frey were quite close as they worked together! The mostly unspoken deal was that the kids would have their characters/persona’s come to life and be able to live out and create cool stories and scenarios to their wildest imaginations while the Kurome would get to learn how to be more human-like and be able to observe and understand them more. As Kuro-Kita learned to act and behave she basically became “Nakita” most of the Kurome who were involved also adopted their “Kid’s” characters as their own personalities because they were effectively blank slates before that.

(BACK TO THE DRAWING) You likely havent seen Kuro-Kita’s normal design but this version is meant to look more tattered and wrong because the events before this had a fire involved in a specific area of the Kuro-World that the “Kuro-Kid” Kurome’s stayed which caused them all to be hurt, especially due to the fact that Kurome are generally weak to fire. so building back their original forms was difficult considering some were unlucky enough to have their “souls” basically burn up a bit-

Soul: A nickname given to the culmination of a Kurome’s being which gives them consciousness and effectively acts as their brain which stores information and is what they use to see. Kurome are able to split their soul to different parts of their body in order to protect certain memories/info.

-she also holds a shovel cause she kinda buried Kuro-Crow for starting the fire.

ONTO FREY! So in this they dont look fully normal? The arm is wrong and their face is blacked out but this is either because it isnt real and just a representation of Frey’s appearance or its a Kurome currently on them. Frey is the main person to have any Kurome be attached to them symbiotically/parasitically. They’ve mostly lost their sense of self in the past few months after their friend group fell apart and yeah I give up but yes the vibes.

[smolcuriouskitten]

You know, you would think that a man so far from your exes you wouldn't be attracted too but here I am. Sitting in this old mildew lab with Herb. He hates when I call him that. "It's Mr. Herbert West," he always fusses. Hes so no nonsense. Why do I feel anything for him?

Hes stuck me so many times. Hes poked at me with all those scary needles and I listen to him ramble about his crazy theories. You would think I would be terrified of him, hell at one point I was. Then I realized the fear was stupid given he isnt going to share his theories and his magical revival juice doesnt work on me. I feared the needles he used more than him. If you take those away, you just have a brainiac with his endless theories on death.

Maybe its that facination of death that keeps me with him. The idea that I have died so many times that it no longer bothers me but humans are so different. They fear it. They try to prevent it and its so strange to me. Is it the fear of the afterlife or is it the fear of not knowing what happens after you die? I only know because of Magic's antics and I grew to be best friends with Kharon. I hope hes doing well these days and I didnt worry him with my absence.

But Herbert is so interesting to watch. His mumbles about the chemicals he uses, the way he operates in his mind when faced with the possibility of a fresh corpse, and the way he almost dances with the dead. All lead to the same thing, him on the floor, covered in blood and with fear deep in his eyes of what he created. But he never gives up. His drive is what makes me so curious.

I dont know much about him in hindsight. I coined him as the 'toxic science nerd' in here for awhile before I grew to sit with him more. When he was just heartless to me, sticking me with needles that seemed to grow in size and ignored my discomfort, it changed when I finally blew up at him. I hate getting angry but the look in his eyes was enough of a satisfaction for me, even if he kept a scowl on his face. I think he fears me just as much as those experiments but its a different fear.

The fear of something you grow fond of suddenly turning on you. I wouldnt dream of such a thing but I imagine with all the dead he reanimates and the attacks, he isnt used to something just...here with him. In their own corner, not bothering him or trying to kill him. I think the idea of me walking away scares him but its all speculation. I can never seem to read his mind but his face always tells on him.

The little scowls he does are adorable even if outsiders dont get it. You would think hes always so mean and angry but hes not. Hes just Herb and every time I sit with him, the more my feelings grow. Is stockholm syndrome starting to set in or is his reagent some kind of aphrodisiac? Or is it that I genuinely like him?

How..? With his corpse talk and his weird way of doing things? His stern nature and sarcasm. The way he looks at me when he wants to show me a new breakthrough he found. The way he allows me to do his skincare and make him new clothes even if he keeps that scowl on his face. The way he always knows what to do when Im sad or anxious or angry. The way he pays so much attention to me, just as much as I pay attention to him.

I dont think I could bring myself to say anything though. I never been the direct type even with my confident persona. I would have to leave the lab and never come back if he rejected me but I dont know if I could bother to do such a thing. Bah, I want to burn this entry with how much my brain vomited here. I am falling in love with a man who probably wouldnt care about me outside of the context of him kidnapping me. Or if I was a normal human who wasnt dead. Or a facination that he could explore that no one else has before.

I need a glass of wine. Im over thinking again. Damn you Herbert and your stupid face and your stupid hair and your stupid tie and your stupid stupid smile. God I would give him my kidney if I could make him smile.

Thats it Im burning the entry.

*End*

Love

i think that i have decide that i hate love. (quite ironic, isnt it?) love is the root of all my problems. my constant homesickness, caused by my love for that place, my loneliness, caused by a lack of love, the pain of not seeing gigs, caused by my love for live music. i mean now that i list it, its seems quite petty. maybe hate is too strong of a emotion for how i feel about love.

hate as an emotion in itself is strange. its said to be the opposite of love, which is often told to be hard to find and rare, yet hate is something that can be created relatively easily. i guess that really goes to show how negative the human race is.

i dont think i have much to say about hate, its probably the root of all our flaws but so is love if you think about it. they are both strong emotions and arguably can be dangerous in certain situations.

stay safe kids, dont touch love.

[icarrymany]

ok here it is cut down a bunch

one of the things ppl like to say abt creators is "x is why ___ doesnt interact with fan spaces/public social media/convention settings anymore!" like dude wait until i tell you. what you make is not your entire life. yeah you can love it, but also people need jobs and to spend time with their families and not be under a fandom microscope. its nobodys fault people want to live their lives the way they do. even if one day there is zero creepy behavior towards artists who have left the public eye, they probably will not come back! because its usually never entirely about that. even if it IS their way of handling what they dont like about the community that surrounds their thing, thats their choice. this isnt something fanbases can adopt as reason #1 for their ruleset lol.

when you put something out into the world, even if it has your face in it, the internet will always do what they want with it. thats art. thats how it works. will you always like it? no. can it be genuinely distressing? yes. but thats a legitimate product of the internet that nobody can control.

getting obsessed with what others do with a source of media just stresses u out, i would know. the people who made it can handle that because it is theirs to handle. i know its meant in good faith but it creates this strange unnecessary responsibility that should not be there. ur not their parent, they arent your friends, you do not know them. please chill they Got It.

i encourage yall to block anything/anyone that makes you uncomfortable! just please dont worry too much abt how the person who made ur favorite thing feels abt the less than stellar parts of a fanbase. just like real life, you just have to cope with weird things people say to you. most people would hate strangers speaking for them just as much as they would getting the occasional gross online message.

i have like a huge draft saved that is essentially just "pls dont worry so much abt the creator of your thing you like. even if you mean well. playing fandom etiquette traffic cop for their comfort when they havent asked for it isnt good for you. it can even toe that parasocial line. enjoy ur thing, block freakz, and dont project ur embarrassment abt weirdos onto the maker of your fave. it ruins your own fun."

Not So Loveless Data x Fae Reader

for those who don't know the Fae are incapable of any emotions that are human and feel love differently than humans and thus i thought a Fae would be perfect for Data (Sighs in fan-girl). (Gender neutral)

This was Datas first time on earth and the entire crew of the enterprise would be attending a dance and data was required to bring someone but everybody he met wanted to either make out with him or hated him. He felt so tired and eventually wandered into a forest to sit down and just think.

Readers Pov.

I was running through the forest wondering how i ever was going to infiltrate the charity dance. Following my gut about this seemed a bad idea now that i could not find anyone. Thats when i spotted a pale man with dark air his skin a gold tinge. I knew he wasnt human but maybe he was close.

Third person pov.

As Data sighed and went to get up he heard a mysterious voice say, "Whatcha Down About Stranger?"

Data Whirled around, "Who are you?"

A person of the (type of fae you are) with bright (Y/E/C) eyes (length and style and color of hair) said, "Why Im Y/N of course Im a (type of fae your are.)

Data replied, "Data Soong, Im an Android thats a person made of-"

Y/N replied, "I know what an android is silly this isnt the 1600s!"

Data said, "I know this seems weird to ask a weird non-human i just met in the forest but would you go to a dance with me, records on fae indicate that the fae experience emotion similar to me which is different than humans and i require a date that wont try to umm..... do inappropriate things to me..."

"Which dance?" ,asked Y/N

"The Eco-Dragon Fundraiser dance.", replied Data

"Sure Mr. Soong,is it ok if i call you Data? I was lookin' for a date to that dance." ,Y/N replied

"Yes Y/N you may call me Data and we are lucky we have found ourselves in such and ideal situation." ,said Data

(Time skip to the night of the dance both Y/N and data look excellent.)

readers pov. Data lead me out onto the dance floor and we gently swayed keeping up this act we had created but was it and act? When Data had first grabbed my hand to dance my stomach had done a backflip, was i experiencing real love? I suddenly heard Data say something so i asked him to repeat it.

"Data what did you say?'

"Oh it was nothing its just........ I think i might be experiencing real love for you and umm i dont know how you feel so."

you grabbed Data and dragged him away sitting him down on a couch in another room

"Data i think i might be feeling love for you as well strangely enough and uhh i just put in an application for the starfleet acadamey this morning since it looked very fun and iv always wanted to leave earth so uh why dont we give it a shot?"

You and Data shared a gentle kiss under the moon rays streaming in to the room.

(epilogue)

about five years later you had been assigned to the enterprise and you and Data now shared a room none of the other crewed batted an eye glad the resident Android was now experiencing emotions and back on earth the other Fae had been surprised but supportive.

Im sorry this was short but i lost inspiration.

Iv considerd starting and nsfw side blog to put nsfw versions of my main fics but im not sure if i should

[caps-clever-girl]

patcap elf au

cap starts to realise that something isnt quite right. it's not just the height thing. hes a terrible elf. he's terrible at making toys, unless theres mechanics or engeneering involved, and even then he's far too slow and finicky. he's bad at making christmas decorations and treats. he finds holiday cheer tiring and insufferable, and doesnt have an ounce of christmas spirit in him no matter how hard he tries. he knows the other elves find him sour and dour and grumpy. when is excited and happy, its about all the wrong things. the only thing he's good at is fixing santa's sleigh - which is why his job is the north poles main mechanic, and not something more christmassy.

after a while he can't take it anymore and starts asking questions, and finds out that hes not an elf at all, but a human. so of course he sets off to find his blood family, since he and the elves researched it and apparently theres a cousin of his somewhere out there.

he finds his cousin fanny. she's one of the top executives in her ex-husbands company. she cleaned him out when they divorced bevause he cheated on her - she got the aging, crumbling mansion in severe need of a do-up, but she got his company in the process. still, it wasn't exactly her life plan and she's struggling to thrive in a company she never intended to own. (her original plan was to drive it into the ground for spite, but the better spite was to get rich off it and be successful without him. and also destroying the company is great and all but she'll have to ruin herself financially to do it, and uh, no.)

she lives with a bunch of interesting characters.

he meets pat. pat is very interesting to the captain, because he's as human as they come, and yet hes as elf as any. hes cheerful and bright and full of christmas spirit without even trying. hes not putting on a front, he's just like that. for a little while, the captain hates pat because he's jealous. heres full proof that a human can be an elf. if pat had been the one to crawl into santa's sack, he wouldntve had a problem at all, and yet cap struggled his whole life. it makes him angry, and he avoids pat, and is curt and brash to him when he cant.

but the thing is, you cant stay mad at pat for long because he's pat. and frankly it is fascinating to see a human so elflike.

eventually cap warms to him and pat gets him to confess whats been going on, and cap explains the situation. he came here to find himself and explore that human side since his elf side is so bad, and frankly pats been driving him up the wall being so elfy. pat offers to teach him how to how to be a human elf and they spend many late nights together doing christmasy things - turns out cap is bad at making the christmas decorations, but he has an eye for layouts and good colour coordination, and organisational skills to rival pats own, that makes him wonderful at creating christmas displays and decorating places. They also go out to do silly tourist things and talk so that cap gets some human activities in too.

it gets easier to christmasy, but it takes him a while to realise that the 'christmas joy' he's feeling is because of pat, not because of the christmas stuff.

pat also has a son. cap is not good with children - something else that makes him a bad elf - but daley is a lovely boy and strangely understanding of cap. (yeah baby thats autism. pat has it too, daleys used to it.)

daley comes up with the idea of making childrens books written and illustrated by real children which helps fanny.

cap gets to lead the masses in song when santa's sleigh breaks down, and, filled with christmas cheer, discovers he's not such a terrible elf after all.

just as importantly, he gets to kiss pat as the snow falls, and spend every christmas from then on with him for the rest of their lives <3

[carry-on-my-wayward-butt]

So far what has been the worst thing about being pregnant?

oh so much, so equally.

sciatica, making it so i physically cannot walk without excruciating pain, but only at night when i need to get out of bed to piss. (thankfully i am not a type who needs to piss all the time. yet.)

acid reflux, a constant cold burn in my throat unfazed by tums but is ignorable if im constantly drinking something. so my stomach is always full of liquid, which makes the acid worse, so i have to keep drinking so i dont feel it.

i am So Fucking Hungry. “have less food more often! smaller, more frequent meals!” they say. “because your stomach will get smaller as baby grows!” i dont fucking think so babe. yes i can handle it. yes i know baby is growing rapidly and needs the nutrients and thats why my stomach is constantly growling. baby wants the entire meal, and baby wants another in two hours. pay up or perish. (by perish i mean my stomach will growl so loud you go deaf)

speaking of deaf, the sinus pressure has closed up one of my ears. it’ll go away after birth but the other ear has pulsatile tinnitus that i need surgery for because the sinus pressure and increased blood supply pushed my eardrum back, and i need a replacement prosthetic of some bone in my ear that isnt doing its job.

speaking of sinuses, there’s so much fucking blood in my body that sinus pressure causes nosebleeds, a common pregnancy issue. however, because of allergies i already had prior, my sinuses keep all the blood clotting up inside my sinuses. and because of acid reflux, i’m constantly spitting, so it never has time to settle and properly bleed. instead i cough, snort, and spit up 5-8 BLOOD CLOTS. FROM MY SINUSES. per day. some darker and heavier, most smaller and less dense. i am constantly creating suction pressure in my throat to dislodge blood clots from my nasopharynx. i am always snorting.

my tits are disgusting. i have lymphedema in the breasts, rather uncommon, and it has been completely mimicing the symptoms of breast cancer without having any lumps or actual tumors to show for it. anywhere. they’re simply an angry warm red, feel like an orange peel, hard as dried playdough, and the consistency of a memory foam mattress.

“yr areolas will darken uwu!”

and thats just what i hate the MOST.

things that just annoy me include:

always feeling both exhausted and like i NEED to clean everything. everything. all the time. im noticing dirt and mess that i’ve never seen before in my life. im rewashing perfectly clean items because im not the one who washed them initially.

nesting feels itchy. im exhausted midway through organizing the entire bathroom but i Have To keep going. its compulsive. it feels like an actual rat in my brain trying to claw its way out. and i struggle so badly to ignore it because half the shit i want to do cant be done until mid april. and it’s been scratching at me since like january. it kind of hurts.

also i love kicks but the rolls and swishes feel fucking gross, it feels like there’s a goldfish in my stomach just flopping around nastily. it tickles in a gross way.

i have to sleep on a wedge pillow in addition to my C pillow. both help immensely, but im so blocked off from davyn and it makes me sad. i have to tear my little nest apart if i want to cuddle, and then i can’t for very long because he lays down flat, and the aggravates my acid really badly.

horribly vivid dreams. ive never felt more disturbed by my dreams than i have the past few weeks. it feels so real, nothing like a normal weird dream. the concepts are strange but the environment is so convincing. and it’s usually nightmares.

im really forgetful now and its kind of scary. like genuinely scary because it feels like im losing my mind and its bringing up a lot of... gaslighty trauma from when i was a teenager. sometimes my memory is as perfect as usual, sometimes i forget what just came out of my mouth two seconds ago. davyn is really patient when i get scared.

and i have it relatively easy.

i dont have gestational diabetes, which would necessitate an entirely new diet that i KNOW i wouldnt be able to sustain.

i don’t have blood clots, so i dont have to take those awful shots that bruise the injection site so terribly(i took them after my knee surgery, i switched to warfarin because i couldnt stand the shots anymore after only a week).

i dont have cervical insufficiency, which runs in my family and would necessitate a much higher level of care.

i dont have an Rh incompatibility with my baby, which would necessitate a higher level of care but also one of the most painful shots you can get in pregnancy. in the ass cheek.

i didnt have morning sickness AT ALL, just occasional nausea and not even consistently. some people puke multiple times a day and struggle eating anything. for the entire duration.

i don’t have tons of emotional outbursts, i had one breakdown about davyn eating my banana, one about davyn saying “the pillow is my girlfriend now” because i fixated on the word girlfriend, one because i left soda in the freezer and it exploded, and i cry easily over touching youtube videos a little more easily. thats it. 3 breakdowns and a tender heart. over the past 7 months.

i have it quite easy, and most of all im doing this on purpose.

i’ll say it again every time: reproductive choice is a hill i will happily die on. absolutely fucking nobody deserves any of this, least of all people who don’t know its coming and didnt want it anyway.

i wanted this, and im doing it eagerly. i just also hate it and it sucks and im glad it’ll be over soon and i can have my screamy poopy wrinkly baby on the outside where i can actually LOOK at them and HOLD them and know the tangible fruits of my labor. feels like im wading through a sewer to reach some unknown treasure that im praying will still be there when i get to the end.

make sure your birth control timer is set properly. wrap yr meat. stay aware. etc.

[sscoutregimentss]

I was gonna make a request based on your Eren x Gamer Reader post but then I saw you take poly requests... Erejean x Gamer Reader? (She/her pronouns btw ^_^)

sure thing anon! your brain is huge. i started a one shot which is now sitting in my drafts bc i literally dont know how to finish it. maybe i'll post it later but for now here you go headcanons woohoo

eren and jeans dynamic makes it look like its impossible for them to share a girlfriend but it actually? works surprisingly well?

arguing is kinda their love language in a very strange weird way. if theyre not fighting somethings wrong but their like constant bickering actually is rlly important to you three's relationship lmfaooo a lot of communicating is just eren and jean fighting and then you pick up on something they say and you three talk it out. plus its gets all their energy out at the end of the day... like when puppies run around in circles bc they didnt go on long enough walks

jean is the planner of the couple, always making sure you guys get tickets to see this that and whatever, always figures out how ur gonna get places and when everyone will be picked up, makes sure everyones schedules are free and that theres no big game release that you'll miss and eren doesnt have work and jean isnt volunteering

in terms of nerdiness jean is a decent middle ground between you (who says "ummm actually..." unironically) and eren (who thought dungeons and dragons was a kinky thing) because he lives with connie so he gets roped into playing stuff like rainbow six seige and watching battlestar galactica into late hours of the night. also he's an only child who was prone to boredom as a kid so he played video games like any other only child. that being said he has a more extroverted personality and aptitude for sports so he just never got as absorbed in it as you did

this kind of makes eren jealous tbh because he thinks jean has more to relate with you then him. but jealousy is like a natural feeling and despite his feigned reluctance jean is happy to share his knowledge with him.

plus eren realizes that what he lacks in video game and movie knowledge he makes up in anime bc jean is clueless on that front. once you went on this huge rant about how sailor moon would decimate goku in a fight and jean just goes "gokus the pirate with the fox spirit, right? hes trying to become number one pro hero right?"

speaking of eren eren and jean are on the same volleyball team (i hc they play volleyball bc theyre tall but i think theyd be cute on any sports team because im weak hearted) and you become their fave cheerleader <3 they look for you in the stands before each game and have their own little ritual for good luck. when he spots you jean jumps really high (despite the team captain, levi screams at him to save it for when the game starts) and makes a heart with his arms and blows you a kiss when he gets in the air and its so embarrassing so eren just dogpiles the embarassment but giving you an over exaggerated wink its the worst theyre gross

jean gets you into connie's discord server after you complain that people are really rude to you in online games and eren is quick to demand an invite too even though he literally plays nothing and has no idea how discord works. he will log in and ping you to show you a meme and even though connie's server is really chill with rules (like 10 ppl max, just some friends hanging out) he has always wanted to say "no memes in general" so he does it every time. you have to show eren how to use private messages once connie jokes abt eren being his discord kitten.

cuddle pile while watching movies... jean is a film buff so you three have movie nights rlly often. its usually you sandwiched in between them with jean behind you and eren in front of you so you can play with his hair. jean's movie taste is actually really broad and you and eren both find a ton of new favorites through him.

they both really like listening to you ramble. you can explain soooo much lore abt your fave series and theyre both really invested. eren is more invested in the characters while jean is more focused on what happens next, but theyre both listening rlly well and making sure you know they care. they kinda care in different ways though? while eren is just passionate and because he's so passionate he must know about all things you like, jean is either interested or just likes hearing your voice. of the two jean is more likely to give you short answers and he'll be more dozed off so he's good to go to when you just want to rant. eren is going to ask you more questions and get wayyy more confused so he's good to go to when you want to explain or flesh out your points.

jean finds eren's jealousy of fictional characters sooooo ridiculous. whenever eren is pouting about some new video game guy youre in love with jean is rolling his eyes because of course its eren jaeger he's just looking for things to get angry at. "what are they gonna do idiot, come out of the tv?" but then one day there's a character that looks a lot like eren and suddenly he understands everything. but he realizes you have a thing for guys with long hair. he'll keep the mullet around for a while

they both really like having you sat in their laps and (unbeknownst to you) in order to avoid conflict they created a system. cozy game? eren. reading? jean. watching anime? eren. watching something live action? jean. playing a game on your phone? eren. watching an analysis video for your favorite franchise? jean. just messing around on your computer? rock paper scissors, best of three. eren likes to hug you tight and rest his head on your shoulder while talking to you. when it gets quiet he'll nuzzle his face in your neck and give you small kisses there. while jean likes to put his hands under your shirt and rest it on your stomach while you two chat. he's puts his head on your head or throws it back depending on your height and kinda just likes letting his hands wander, like rubbing up and down your arms or tickling you lightly.

you: i hate this stupid game

eren: yeah babe that game fucking sucks (has never played it in his life)

jean: then stop playing it?

you and eren, at the same time: what? no.

all in all they are good boyfriends 10/10 would recommend.
