the pen's in my hand - 24. that boyish look that I like in a man
Set in the TV writers AU. You can find it on AO3.
He’s somehow blushing and smirking at the same time and it’s quite possibly the most endearing thing she’s ever seen.

thinking about how dean’s character gets simplified in fandom, or more specifically, the very black and white lens that gets applied to him. because integral to dean, from my point of view, is that he is both a victim of abuse and a perpetrator of it. that these two things do not cancel each other out or outweigh each other to the point that only one matters. he’s both, you cannot separate him from the fact that he’s both.
but very often, people do. dean is either a victim. or he’s an abuser. it’s like it’s hard for people to hold both those facts in their heads at once. dean went through incredible amount of trauma as a child and an adult, is routinely faced with violence, has resorted to alcohol abuse to cope with it. he’s also a violent person, someone who retreats into tactics of emotional abuse and control when he feels threatened, who hurts the people around him constantly and the people who are closest to him (ie Sam, Cas, later Jack) get the brunt of that abuse. these are just facts. they’re things that happened on the screen and cannot be denied.
and it’s. idk it’s weird to me (not unexpected, because he’s hardly the only character to ever get this treatment) that dean of all people is the one portrayed in such an either/or way when one of the defining moments of the show for him is that during his stint in Hell, he was tortured and then became a torturer to escape that, to feel like he had some control again, and he relished in it. it’s baked into who he is.

Thinking about the fact that A.B.A's creator (I wanna call him Dr. Paracelsus to differentiate him from key Paracelsus) could very well still be alive out there somewhere, cause he wasn't said to have been killed, he was just taken by a military organization (?!) for his skills-
And while I don't think they ever confirmed a connection, it feels like almost too obvious that he'd be in some way tied to the creation of Frasco II, given that it's called Frasco II
I need to know more

You once said "how do we know Macky wasn't trapped in a time loop for his afterlife and that's why he's like that" and the Ten Kings of Hell were shown with the Scroll of Memory which does basically that, so you may have been onto something, and I know we mostly attribute memory manip to LBD but if they have the scroll then they may have done so to Macky instead making him relive some messed up AU of his fight with SWK in hopes he'd be angry enough to take kill SWK for his impermissible immortality.
cool thing about lmk is that they lean on the fact that “maybe your memory is lying to you” and show it with LBD and the Samadhi Fire and the Brotherhood and the memory scroll and MK’s own memory
like how many iterations have we seen now of past!swk???? how many times are we retold but there’s a slight change in animation or the style????
can’t find the link for it rn but there was a post about Azure’s own memory being flawed (the flashbacks we see, the memories he shows MK, and the memories in the scroll) and a theory about how the Ten Kings (or some of them) manipulate Azure’s own motivations and emotions concerning swk (ESPECIALLY IN THE S4 SPECIAL!!!!!)
so yeah, you are on to something there, anon

WHAT IS THIS GAME I HEAR OF AND WHERE DO I PLAY IT??? I NEED TO KNOW
EAT BUG is a really short game (about 15-20 minutes to get all endings) that is meant as an introduction to the DOLOR DIVUS universe :3c EAT BUG is only a tiny fragment of the plot though!
you play as a little guy and you eat bug (maybe even search for bug...) (...and more!), it's an expanded game version of a nonsensical "comic" i made back in 2020 ^_^
the game itself is very simple but it has deeper lore behind it, it doesn't get very deep into the lore and future projects i have planned will deffo clear things up and show the bigger picture ^_^
we're releasing it tomorrow on our itch.io page B-) https://avern-c.itch.io/ <- and a post will be made on here once it's out !!
