#it's kind of annoying

[hellostickycollectionpeanutfan]

"please don't mischaracterize my favourite character and turn him into a simp." i ask of the wall. "he is not ship fodder and he is no one's therapist. he's not a mindless protector."

it's pretty funny how characters i enjoy the most usually end up receiving this treatment from fandom. this time i'm complaining about dr ratio and aventio. just... knocking on the door, waiting for the culprits to come out like a Dude Wanting to Spread Jesus' Word. it really sucks watching one of your favourite characters get reduced to the other, perhaps better liked character's shield and fangirl self-insert. ratio is not aventurine's papa, he's not there to "fix" him or cure him of his mental sickness. aventurine is not ratio's little weakling boytoy who needs him to be able to stand on his own feet. they're both written to be pretty independent dudes. from what i've figured, they're not big fans of showing weakness and vulnerability. they're stubborn and eager to prove themselves. i wish these traits would be appreciated and looked into more instead of people opting to diminish their characters and plain white bread their personalities.

ARE UR ASKBLOGS DEAD OR SMTH

Uhh, why are you shouting at me in all caps? Lmaooo.

And no, I just haven't been on them for a while because of several reasons: I'm going through a depressive episode and it's difficult to find the motivation to do anything, I'm experiencing the brunt of a new hyperfixation, and I'm also brainstorming ideas for a large project.

I dunno when I'll be in the mood to answer questions again, but the blogs are not dead.

[lemonhemlock]

does anyone else have this issue where asks appear as phone notifications several times? like you open it once and then it bings again as if you haven't seen it already

[invisiblyvisiblejay]

In terms of Anakin and Asajj dynamics it's yes to Clone Wars 2003 yes to Republic #71 and no to TCW and specifically the Sabotage arc but that's just me

It's not like I'm not happy that they're publishing more danmei novels in English but if SevenSeas doesn't stop before adding more series how many fucking months will be of waiting between volumes of the same series if they don't stop

[shesnake]

full offence but I do NOT watch movies so I can "turn my brain off" I take this shit so seriously

[kangaracha]

i thought this was the daybreak fic this whole time, you need better titles

anyway classic keeps angst with the classic twist at the end. i actually thought i was reading too into things when my brain was like PREGNANCY TEST but i wasn't, you were just subtly dropping hints.

this is a really stupid fic to say this on but this feels a lot like the peak of your zombies prompt writing era, idk what the difference is between this and your other stuff since we changed fandoms, maybe i'm just delusional but this is like right up there with your good solid prompt fills. if you know what i mean. i'm not saying the other stuff is bad ANYWAY we can talk about it on discord. i'll go back and read more and form an opinion

“I wish it wasn’t you” & SKZ

You laugh. The sound crackles through your chest like radio static and nearly turns into a sob. "Who do you wish it was, then?" you ask, as if the answer would be anything better than what you already know. "Your ex?" 

He reaches for you, cold fingers slipping against the crook of your elbow. You pull away. "Answer me," you whisper, and there's a part of you that wonders if your voice will turn hysterical. Maybe you're overreacting about this, maybe he's always been this way - or maybe, just maybe, he's acting like this because you've given him no other choice. 

He tries to approach you again, taking one step closer, and then another. Before you can move away he's pulling you to him, arms wrapping around you in a hug that makes your skin crawl. It's not a feeling you ever thought you would associate with him, with the one person you trusted to the moon and back. Disgust churns in your gut. You nearly push him away. 

"I wish it wasn't you because I don't know what to do next," he blurts all in one breath, breathing heavier than he was a minute ago, tone wobbling and arms squeezing you desperately tight. "I don't know what to do next, and I don't want to lose you, and I don't want to mess this up before it even begins."

A pause that feels like it lasts longer than eternity. You feel like you're teetering on the edge of a cliff and his hold is slipping. You don't want to let go.

"I'm sorry," he whispers, pulling back so that his forehead presses gently against your own and when you finally see his eyes you realize they shine against the overhead lights, his chin nearly trembling. "I'm so sorry." 

Something bubbles up inside of you. You don't know what it is, if it's disgust or anger or an unbridled fear of the unknown, but it makes you close your eyes and pretend that yesterday never left you. It was easier yesterday. It was always easier before the storm, before the clouds parted and you had to look around and see if anyone was still standing beside you.

His fingers curl around the hem of your shirt, holding tight. For a long moment, you wonder if he's going to sink to his knees and beg for forgiveness. You're not sure you want it, when you think back on what he had said no more than twenty minutes ago. You hadn't heard the shock coloring his tone, the disbelieving crinkle of his eyes, the way his eyes flickered from your face down to your belly. 

Was there malice in what he had said?  Or was that you, souring everything put in front of you in a desperate bid to see how he would react?

"I don't know what comes next," he says, "but I'd never let you face it alone." 

Faintly, you think back to the lines you had stared at until your sight had blurred. Was it the correct color? The correct order? Could you even trust yourself? Did he realize just how dangerous this was? A relationship shrouded in shadow thrust into the limelight because of a silly mistake? 

There's a lump in your throat. Tears prick at the corners of your eyes. "I don't think I can do this," you whisper, the truth spilling from you with an ugly sound. "I can't take care of someone else when I can barely take care of myself." Lips press against yours then, featherlight before there's another kiss pressed to your cheek, the corner of your eye. "We aren't ready for this." 

A hand grasps at your own, squeezing tight enough to hurt. "We'll figure it out," he says, and you think he sounds just as unsure as you do. "We always do." 

You don't remember closing your eyes but when you open them, you find that he's already across the room, raising the phone to his ear. His other hand is shoved into his pocket, and when the person on the other end of the line picks up, his voice shakes all over again. He glances back at you after speaking for a moment, gaze lingering. 

He walks over and leaves a kiss against your cheek before leaving you alone in the room, door clicking shut behind him. 

You laugh.

You laugh until it turns into a sob, twisting at your chest until you feel nothing at all.

Don’t mind me I just like to see him go bananas about cartoonish Autobot rules

Maaan…..if Prowl was in tfp he would spontaneously combust at least once a day

[niyana-the-ambiguous-mobian]

I don't know why this little moment of her just tossing the popcorn at Shadow and playing oblivious when he just looks over with a "Did you just?" kind of expression sticks with me so much, but I think about it constantly 😄

in light of recent events, i am seeing a lot of posts talking about punching nazis and fighting nazis. and that is good and all, but at the end of the day it is worthless if your activism starts and ends at condemning the nazi salute. antisemitism and nazism are more than sieg heiling and spray painting swastikas on a wall.

if you truly care about nazism, learn about its characteristics. learn what it really means. learn how it has affected and still affects jewish people. learn about antisemitism, about dogwhistles, about stereotypes. learn how to identify it when it's hidden, when it's not coming from right-wing white supremacists who openly hate jews, when it's coming from friends, or relatives, or other left-wing groups. identify what antisemitic beliefs you hold. fight antisemitism even when it is directed at jews you don't like or you disagree with.

and, above everything, support the jewish community. learn about their history, their culture, their customs. love jews more than you hate nazis.

international holocaust remembrance day is next week (january 27th). if you truly want to be an ally to the jewish community, condemning elon musk is not enough.

Can we have some more angst with baby op? Angst is life

He misses the autobots 💔

[insomnova]

why cant characters be little freaks. why cant they be a lil weird. must all characters be nice and well adjusted? must they all have healthy emotional regulation and a firm handle on their mental health? can they not be a lil fucked up? a lil off putting? is it a crime for a character to be, dare i say it, annoying?

[dogboy-dyke]

Last night i got to be sandwiched between two hot girls on my couch while I was drunk and they were petting me and talking about motorcycles and I only understood like half of what they were talking about and it was awesome and made me feel like a dog

[wormspoodle]

throwing these haphazardly out into the world with a sort of "devil-may care" attitude
