#so i'm throwing this out into the wilds now

[secondbeatsongs]

when you're into the Big Ship™ in a Big Fandom™, you have the luxury of having an OTP - a real One True Pairing, where you can read about just them for ages, and you will never run out of fics, and everything is perfect and beautiful and nothing hurts

but when you go to a smaller fandom, you'd better pray to whatever god you worship that someone else in this room ships the same thing that you do, and that if they do, they're writing more than late-night crackfic, because you're on thin fucking ice!

and how small is your small fandom? is it less than 100 fics? maybe even...less than 20 fics?

welp, then it's time to make peace with that god and either open up a text document or learn how to ship everything, because it's swim or drown babey! and your ship is sinking fast

anyway all of this is to say that after hanging out in small fandoms and shipping less-common pairings for a while, going back into a Big Huge Fandom™ is wild because suddenly it's like...wait, why didn't I ship these people again? I don't remember. why was I only sticking to one ship in this fandom?? boring of me, honestly. these guys should make out.

for the question thing!!! do you have any silly hcs about the clan boys (+ the familiars/eito)? can be as wild as u want

sorry in advance if i don't have any HCs for ur beloveds bc i can only offer what my brain chooses to fixate on.... but let's see........

i like to imagine clan members enjoying fun little hobby hours

i pretend they're not busy adults with their own obligations and schedules.... so they just get together like a bunch of retirees and partake in shared hobbies whenever they want 🤗

e.g.,

book club: oli, blade, yaku, garu

horny book club: eiden, morv, blade, edmond if he works up the courage to discuss his fave BDSM PwP short novel with the 3 most shameless creatures ever ... honestly oli could join as well but i'm gonna excuse him from ONE book club so he can get some sleep. maybe he'll alternate days between the two 😆

sewing and knitting together like a couple of serene grandmas: yakuoli. eiden joins sometimes (all serenity is lost when he does)

TARGET PRACTICE! NEW ACTIVITIES!!! DARTS!! ! PIN THE TAIL ON THE EDMOND! sorry idk this is just my way of saying that after the cowboy event, i want to imagine edmond/dante/garu all playing target striking games and it becomes a contest of how split one dart can be down the middle (you can't all be perfect aimers ok aster can't keep buying new darts can u PLEASE throw them anywhere but dead centre).

i know blade could join as well but would it take the competition aspect out of it? he's kind of calibrated to never miss right?? it's not a game anymore. it's just superior blade and pissed off dante and garu cheering (he's just happy to be there) and edmond trying to be civil about letting everyone participate

they are out in the garden. touching grass: yaku is gardening. blade is collecting bugs. garu is digging holes. kuya is bewitching plants at random to spew sex pollen into someone's face (i feel like this is his superpower in SEVERAL fics and i am not complaining). quincy is trying to nap

.but .

he chose the worst place to do it. in the middle of nature's playground (aster's garden)?

garu's kicking up dust into his face. blade is shoving random insects into his face and asking identification questions. yaku screams when he inevitably falls to the kuya traps. kuya can't resist watching the little ones (yakugaru) play with dirt. WHY would you choose to sleep here.

(Topper is nibbling all the edible plants in the garden while skillfully avoiding all the porn plot traps with his superior Toppinstincts)

now for 3 ! single character HCs.......

kuya: wanders the marketplace, and often sees those anti-aging creams with LOFTY claims to their power... he always mocks them and insults the intelligence of all the vain people clamouring to buy the stock. later that day you will see kuya at home, trying those very same creams (procured illegally, of course, because why pay for anything ever) and pretending like he's zero percent interested in the results

rei: in the same situation will just as quickly mock the creams but unlike kuya he'll mean it and will NOT be caught applying the gloop all over his face later. "lmao it's just sunscreen who even believes this shit"

yakumo: i like to give him sneczema sometimes. i know it's implied that everyone in gay gacha has perfect skin forever *waves hand dismissively* BUT

imagine that he loves working with his hands but the sneczema can flare up if he's too rough on em, so he compromises by wearing his gloves. protect that vulnerable skin, yaku!! [insert pun about scaly skin]

His SR clothing material seems soft. Aesthetic reason: slippery smooth like the idea of snek. Practical reason: coarse textures can aggravate skin 😔 only the silkiest coverings for a scaly boy...

i mean. yaku prefers the wet cave environment so we gotta keep an eye on his humidity. too dry and he'l'l turn into a wafer (like in Solaria that One Time)

is this just an excuse for me to mist him with a spray bottle ? at random times because it just seems like fun? perhaps. spritzspritz

man.

julie e os fantasmas (original julie and the phantoms) was so wild. like, what do you mean the boys were crushed to death by a truck? what do you mean julie has committed more than one crime? what do you mean the main triangle consists of a rockstar with a closet dnd player vs a my chemical romance revenge era rejected song? what do you mean the ghost love interest was a menace to society in life and public enemy number 1 in death? what do you mean he was tortured more than once? what do you mean there was a dude trying to enslave ghosts and this plotline only lasted two episodes????

Colorpalet writing 25ji's main story : It's really difficult to handle the sensitive topics without making it too triggering/blatant for younger readers. We should avoid mentioning suicide directly.

spent all day cleaning in prep for hosting turkey day and, like every time I dust, Santino is furious with me because I wouldn't let him play with with coolest cat toy in the house

(it's the swiffer duster. he gets mad every time I dust that I won't let him absolutely destroy the swiffer duster.)

I wonder how palismen deal with people who are plurals/systems/etc. Would the palisman bond with just one member of the system, or all of them? Do pluralities get to have multiple palismen at a time if they want, or is that physically/magically impossible? Palismen seem to be only able to bond with one person at a time (or maybe it's just a preference), but is that a physical person or a soul person? How much of a "person" does someone need to be in order to properly form a bond with a palisman, anyway?

I’m following the Roe v Wade horror show like

I promise you, in this one very specific thing we are as a meaningless sidenote. No one who is anti-choice is going to go, “Oh fuck, a bunch of queers I already hate and don’t consider men can get pregnant too? We have to put a stop to this immediately and give them their well deserved male privilege.” The pro-choice camp is more mixed, sure, but they don’t matter either because we are entirely irrelevant to any part of the equation.

There is a time and a place for this discussion. There are absolutely times when transmasc voices need to dominate a conversation, where that perspective is valuable and helpful to the issue at hand. Now is not one of them. This is a legal issue where gender is irrelevant and the only thing that matters is whose body has the necessary ingredients to react with sperm in a certain way. It’s nice to hear ‘people at risk of pregnancy’ or ‘people who menstruate’ but it’s not the end of the world if some otherwise well meaning person just says ‘women’.

Basically, if I see one more fucking post that says, “Ak-chewally, it’s a men’s issue too. Ur cis villagers are showing,” underneath a thinkpiece or comment on the erosion of women’s rights I will scream and upset my dog. If I see one more person attacked for saying “This wouldn’t happen if men could get pregnant,” then my dog will scream and upset me.

So many folks out here are for real seeing mpreg jokes about this very serious shit and responding with an earnest, “Not all men!”

To be perfectly clear, I’m not talking about voicing your personal feelings on this or about how it will be bad in a specific way for trans men or how you wish you didn’t feel left out of the conversation. I mean, very particularly, the multitude of people who have decided that the single most important thing, the main dog they have in this fight, is that trans men can also sometimes experience pregnancy. It keeps reading like, “Stop calling this a women’s issue! Infertile women, trans women, and women past the age of menopause have nothing to do with this!”
