The feeling after watching a srk movie in 2023.

Pathaan had me all excited and amped up because adrenaline rush. Love my mission impossible flicks just for the fun of it.

Jawan had me restless because I just wanted it in my brain. I don't care what anyone says about it being a mixture of 10 films, I loved it and I'll always stand by it.

Dunki has me in a limbo. The joy of watching a movie is there but there's an underlying sadness that we don't see the actor srk this often, and I know he's good in all his works, but you understand that his stardom takes the front seat these days.

What comes next and when I don't know but I pray that he plays all these varieties as long as he can. Please just keep doing movies Shah. Please.

SLO'S DYNAMIC GALORE!

EVENT . everyone is like a lego piece: despite being of different shapes and sizes, we have commonalities that allow us to connect with others. so the question is... if you want achieve a certain structure, who would be your best choice?

after finishing a gift for my friend (who i did an anon analysis for, and you can receive an anon analysis from @paimonial-rage), i thought it'll be cool to try a different approach.

in this event, you are to send me a description of your personality and one dynamic (see under the cut). i will give you a genshin character that fits the dynamic with you, and if inspired, might propose some tropes. please read more under the cut for terms and formatting of your ask.

dynamics

complementary opposites (you lack something i have; i lack something you have)

surface opposites (we may seem like we're different but upon learning more about the other we are actually pretty similar)

peas in a pod (we understand each other fundamentally. we're not exactly mirrors but i know you as i know myself and vise versa)

(adapted from this post, if you're curious).

terms

i am opening 3 slots, preferably 1 per dynamic. this is because i do not want to overwhelm myself as this is quite new. more slots may open in the future!

friends can freely submit. the 3 slots does not include them.

submission period is from 28 feb to 4 march. i will announce which are the asks i'll be writing for after the submission period.

please give me a month or more to write this as i am swarmed with other responsibilities and work.

asks that do not follow the format will not be entertained. see below.

accepted: @andromeda-nova-writing + @yoiieczwhynot

formatting of your ask

it's simple. please just include a description of yourself, preferably paragraphs long, and your ONE dynamic.

some things that you can include (you don't need to include everything):

your personality (i.e. how you react to certain situations, what are your values)

interests and why you like them

what you think are your strengths / weaknesses

what other people say are your strengths / weaknesses

traits that you aspire to have / who do you want to be?

traits that you currently have / who are you currently?

what not to give:

your sexuality (my reply focuses on dynamics, not romantic pairings)

your physical appearance (keep ur privacy hahaha)

your age or pronouns (does not affect your match at all. save that space for things that matters please)

anything too traumatic (please do not trauma dump)

MBTI / enneagram / horoscope, etc... (i won't use it anyways)

Why do all these online safety sites recommend password managers? I don't really know how they work, but isn't there a risk that someone will hack into the password managers' databases and find all your passwords all at once instead of just some of them?

About the random chest that flashes over MK in the memory scroll:

I‘m pretty sure it‘s Azure. You can see the tips of his two… loose ponytails? (The hair that frames his face anyway) hanging down from his shoulders. Later, in his emperor form, we can also see he has the defined musculature.

And since Wukong was reliving all of his regrets in the scroll, the biggest ones flashing on the screen in that scene, one after another, it would make sense for Azure to appear.

Both because Wukong betrayed the brotherhood and lost his friends, and also because- well, Azure was the main antagonist of the season. It would make sense for him to be of importance for Wukong in this scenario especially.

I can‘t believe you failed to identify one of your favorite characters by chest alone. Smh. Fake fan, I think I have to unfollow 😔

(/j)

So. I had typed out this whole answer pointing out how absolutely shredded the silhouette was compared to every character in the show, and then I had this really good point, like (quoting my og post):

"And it's not that you're wrong, it would make complete sense for Azure to appear as part of the memory flashes—but then why not show his face? Why not make it obvious that it's Azure? Why be this weird about it, and have it framed so that when it fades it reveals MK? You gotta think why the writers and storyboarders would make those kinda decisions."

But then. But then I realized anon.

There's a line. Like Azure's fur color line

BUT HERE'S THE OTHER THING ANON. AZURE'S PAST OUTFIT (Presumably what he would have been wearing when this memory took place) IS ALSO DIFFERENT:

So I legitimately don't know. At the end of my og post, I had written a pretty funny joke: "Anon don't challenge my ability to identify my lego characters by chest alone ever again", but you were right to. I have no clue who this silhouette's identity is. I can't identify them off of pecs alone. Is it Azure? Maybe! Is it MK? Maybe! (Like, the fact that we get the pecs flash, and then later MK is revealed to have a war form that he has had NO prior training in makes me question some things. Like most of his abilities MK's learned to use, he just does it, and it's all weird.) Like:

BUT I DON'T KNOW.

Lately I've been doing art with the objective to appeal to me and to me only, but some of the pretty people seem to like it, which is nice

It’s almost worse knowing they hurt me unintentionally because I don’t have any right to hate them. It was an accident, they didn’t know, but still I have breakdowns at the mention of them and they don’t even know.

[anxsity]

no offense but if someone says "have you tried..." followed by the most obvious shit i should be allowed to beat them to death

[katyspersonal]

I really do not deserve sympathy if I keep trusting into people who obviously can only hurt and invalidate everything about me and everything we had as soon as I don't meet some of their selfish expectations. As soon as I start to feel safe and accepting living together, I fucking hear "we have no reason to be friends if you don't get into the videogames that I love" when I explained 500 times how I interact with videogames and fiction and why I cannot just waste my days playing many of them and why I cannot simply chug up new information and content often.

But really, why should anyone care about the fact that I get hurt again and that I am crying again, when I am the one who never fucking learns and keeps giving a chance to a person that I /know/ doesn't care and will harm me when I expect it the least? That every time it is another dumb, stupid, minor thing that magically makes me no longer important. That I cannot be honest and cannot be myself without being punished for it every time. That I just am not worthy of acceptance and understanding and unconditional love, it seems. That I am never good enough. Maybe people that hate me and want to exterminate me for the awful sin of having terrible mental health were right. Maybe I am weak for expecting anything from wrong kind of people. And the weakest must be gone.
