Brightgoat I have a life-or-death question.
...
Opinions on Tenna?
Good lord do I have opinions overall my opinion is that I love him but if we wanna go further ok so- SPOILERS UNDERNEATH
Ok so I may be reading too much into it, but it's interesting how he seems to connect with Susie so much (and vice versa even), while his arguable 'counterpart' Spamton connects with Kris.
Something-something... Spamton and Tenna are similar but Spam is actually more dubious while Tenna, who obviously does bad shit himself is arguably more sympathetic in his goals (i mean at least he's not trying to take Kris's soul)
Despite that, Kris connects with the more dubious one, while Susie connects with the more sympathetic one does this have something to do with Kris actually being a dubious motherfucker who may or may not be working with the Knight and working with Carol while Susie is clearly the more purehearted heroic protagonist HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Anyways
I like Tenna a lot, out of all the main bosses he's the most tragic, it's interesting how he fits the role of a SECRET BOSS (like Jev and Spam) way more, but just like how the church dark world got 'flipped' when Susie made it, it seems when Kris made THIS fountain the entire SCRIPT got flipped. Tenna, the secret-boss-coded one, became the main boss, while... UMM. AHEM. THE FUCKING KNIGHT ITSELF is the supposed 'secret boss' WHILE BEING (ONE OF) THE MAIN ANTAGS HELLO.
Tenna is the closest to Kris, but for some reason Kris is kind of cold towards him? Or acts strangely at least. Someone called him a 'parasocial family member' and it actually fits haha, he witnessed kris and asriel grow up, partially raised them you could argue (original ipad kids-), witnessed the family break up and felt the fallout.
His design is really simple and you could argue anticlimactic and too similar to Spam, but his spritework and animation more than makes up for it and makes him an instant icon.
It's interesting how both him and Spam are connected with Mettaton, hell they both even feature a shooting mechanic, Tenna even does a cooking show just like Mettaton did. It feels like since in this universe, Mettaton doesn't get his desired form/body, so he's reliant on fantasy twice as much. I'm happy he gets Tenna but also damn I'm gonna miss seeing Tenna in our hometown... although who knows maybe his sprites take up a lot of work haha
What is sad to think about is how he witnessed the Dreemurr family drama, but doesn't know they divorced maybe??? He didn't know Asriel went to college, so imagine he gets plugged in, turned on again in AGES and comes back thinking everyone is still there somewhere, but they're all actually gone now. Although he probably surmises it, he's keeping Toriel in a gotchy-ball-induced-coma after all-
It's sad to think of him as like,, the unknown babysitter of Kris and Asriel, watching them grow up and entertaining them, genuinely having fun doing so when he's all 'remember when you used to voice over the cooking channel' I think he genuinely looks back on that fondly, like he was a playmate, and slowly the family falls apart and he gets shut down, turns on again after ages and suddenly it's only Toriel and Kris who is clearly not themselves, won't laugh or smile like how they might have used to. Hmmmmm.....
He's entertaining, he's got all the Toby-Fox-Writing-Quirks on point, the meme potential is ungodly and his scene with Spam actually feels unreal I can't describe it it was so jusHGAHSAHAHA LOVE LOSES.
Overall, he's a Tenna/Tenna

So I'm deep into my Persona 5 feels at the moment and I need to do some screaming.
THIS POST CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS FOR PERSONA 5!
If you think you might want to play the game, please don't read it and just go in blind. It's so worth it!
Anyway, now that that's out of the way. I need to tell you about My Ship and Why it's Such a Good Ship and it's still taking up huge amounts of room in my head over two years after I finished the game.
Okay, so you have a Detective and Master Thief ship. Great! A+ trope already! We're already having a good time!
The Detective and the Thief meet and they both know who each other is, but are pretending to just be friends (more than friends??). It's secret identity fun with the secret thief spending time with the guy who is hunting him. Except the detective knows he's the thief already and is trying to get in good with him to get info. We're having a blast with the dramatic irony!
But wait, the Thief is actually...a good guy! He got screwed over by corruption and the justice system and so he now fights outside the law to protect people around him! He gets justice by breaking the law! Even better, right!
So now, I hear you say, the Detective and the Thief may start out as enemies (and they do) but actually they're on the same side!
Except....the Detective? He's actually a bad guy. He's working for the big bad. He's been murdering people under orders and is trying to infiltrate the thief's gang to blame his own crimes on them! Oh no!
In fact, he is ordered to Kill The Thief himself! And he does it! (Or thinks he does because actually the Thief figured it out and outsmarted him and didn't get murdered.)
So wow, you're saying. That's really interesting. This is toxic yuri yaoi! REALLY REALLY enemies to lovers! Fake friends to enemies to lovers?
And yes, you're not wrong. BUT there's MORE, because see ACTUALLY while all that is true about the Detective and what he's done...see he's also really really traumatized and he's out to get revenge on his father for his terrible childhood and his mother's death. And his father is the big bad and all of this was part of his elaborate revenge plan and actually he's just motivated by this warped sense of justice.
And actually they're not that different...the Thief even says hey I could have ended up just like you. So it's okay, actually. Let's fight together for justice against your evil dad. I know you did a few murders but I can forgive you.
And then...well...things end in tragedy, of course.
BUT NOT IN FANFIC THEY DON'T! (I mean sometimes they do.)
(Also I'm not getting into how much BETTER this all gets in Royal and everything. Suffice, more stuff happens and it's all very gay and epic and tragic and yeah.)
So yeah. This is why I'm so damn mentally ill about Them. It's like....MATHEMATICALLY the perfect ship. They are narrative foils, they're rivals, they're on opposite sides and then the same side and then opposite sides and then the same side again.
They are also INCREDIBLY OBSESSED WITH EACH OTHER and demonstrably UNHINGED about each other.
So yeah anyway that's Shuake.

Some serious and unserious thoughts about the Ex-Morning ep. 4 (with pics bcoz y not):
Ah Perayas my beloveds. I can always count on you all for a wonderful time.
This is late because my blog suddenly morphed into a SmartBoom doomsday account in less than 48 hours. The happs were so bad I wasn't able to join my college friends for our regular streaming watch. I had to watch Ep. 4 alone and that made me ten times sadder. 🥺 Thank God the episode was so good.
Krist and Singto, save me from the nightmare of these feuding companies and bl ships that suddenly do cliff dives overnight.
ON TO THE SHENANIGANS!
1. Soooo many props to the styling and make-up team for successfully making present!Tam distinctly older-looking than past! Tam. I know it's just hair, wardrobe and camera angles, but damn they look wholly convincing:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It really does look like eight years have passed between these two. Even without context and color-grading changes in the flashbacks, I'd automatically know it was a past scene because the characters LOOK younger. Amazing work all around (and if I may have already mentioned this in a past post, then I think it's still worth repeating because they really did such a good job).
2. Color-grading was also used so effectively in this show. I've noticed it in other episodes, but this is the first time where the setting of the past and present parallels completely overlap with each other for the entirety of the episode. It's actually a logistical challenge for the prod team to ensure that the audience can follow along with the flashbacks, because if not done right, you run the risk of them losing the continuity of the plot. They did it already with the styling, set design, and dialogue, but it's so wonderful that they took the time to color-grade as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I tell you, when GMMTV wants to make something work, they'll throw all of their time and resource to MAKING IT WORK. Even though the plot is relying heavily on KristSingto nostalgia, the production really took their time in crafting this show.
3. Personally, I'm not a big fan of the excessive use of flashbacks this episode. Of course, they've used multiple flashbacks in past episodes already, but for this episode specifically, I felt like half of the runtime was spent on flashbacks. And though they did all they could to ensure that the flashbacks are distinct from the present, the sudden cuts took me out of the story at some points. I had to find the momentum of the plot again.
Also, though I find past!Tam and past!Phi's love story cute, I'm not really invested in them. I actually want to see more of present!Tam and present!Phi and how they're going to fix this black hole of a mess they've found themselves in. Flashbacks were effective to establish their past relationship to the audience and make it convincing, but at ep. 4, I think we as the audience have pretty much got it, thank you 😅
4. I know this plot is a nostalgia trip already (Tam even said it verbatim during their conversation in the bedroom), but it's super fun that the script actually incorporated the exact number of years Krist and Singto have been in a branded pair: 8 years (going on 9 actually).
Tumblr media
Man, almost a decade of being in a successful BL ship, and still airing shows. SmartBoom couldn't even make it past 1 (I'm sorry, I'm sorry... it's been a rough 48 hours).
Anyway, cute little Easter egg. Love that Tam's face here is the definition of WTF 🤣
5. Jamie Juthapich is drop-dead GORGEOUS (no notes, head empty, just in awe of this beautiful human). Not saying that Earn isn't just as beautiful, because she is, but damn Jamie:
Tumblr media
How do I live in a world where you exist? How do I make you realize I also exist?
Ehem, SORRY, this got gay pretty quickly (um, Lizzie, isn't this about a gay show already?!) ANYWAY, moving on;
6. Thank you GMMTV for educating me about salt farming in Thailand 😅 You've taught me about your green tea industry, marine conservation, care for persons with disabilities, and even your high school grading system, I think I can add salt farming to the list now (also shoutout to anyone who knows which shows that list came from. In the wise words of Akon: you are my homie, lover and friend).
Tumblr media
7. Gosh the conversation Phi and Tam had in the bedroom about giving back to your parents is so freakin' relateable. I don't know if it's culturally-relevant at all in the West, but here in Asia, children often face the pressure of giving back to their parents once they start earning a living. It's an unspoken law that accompanying your parents in their old age is a filial responsibility. I've had about the same conversation with my own parents, and it's the primary reason why I've moved back home multiple times for work, despite not having much of a living in the province as compared to the city.
8. Aww, Equal Marriage Law mention 🥰 love that for Thailand. Love wins, especially over there. Hope my country can say this, soon. Alas, all we get over here are drag queens being sued by the Church.
Tumblr media
9. Phi has no chill. You were crying over Paul last night (I'm assuming that's Ohm Thitiwat's character?), kissed your best friend this morning, and now you're confessing to him IN FRONT OF YOUR MOM?! 🤣🤣🤣 shouldn't you have a discussion about this first? Of course Tam wouldn't say no to you, you asked in front of your mom! 😅 This is a FAMILY matter now.
Tumblr media
This exudes the same energy as those people proposing on the Jumbotron in Sports events.
Bonus: I loved that firepit scene where they burn the mementos. Tam's little jump over the flames still cracks me!
Tumblr media
Look at his widdle legs! 🤣🤣🤣
I won't make promises about being early to post anymore because my fandom life is turning into all sorts of unpredictable (thank God my real life is cool as a cucumber lately). But I WANT to post early next week. I'll try. Come hell or high water, I'll do this one first and deal with the burning embers of dying stars second (how dramatic 🫣😅)
See you next week and stay kooky folks!

Without Me
Pairing: Park Jinyoung x female reader
Genre: fluff
Tropes: hurt/comfort
Warnings: dramatic whining whilst processing some internal hurt
Word count: 724
Author’s Note: Recently, I was put into a situation that made me really uncomfortable by someone I usually trust. I immediately wrote this story to self-soothe, I guess. How annoying, yet another Jinyoung story for you all. He’s really getting his way of late -_-
Tumblr media
“Why is it always you?”
“Huh?” Turning to glance at you after your statement, Jinyoung furrowed his eyebrows together, trying to decipher what your words were leading to.
You sighed, exhaustedly. “Why am I always stuck on you?”
“You say that like it’s a bad thing,” he murmured in response, rubbing a hand loosely through his hair before pouting at you. “Why wouldn’t it be me?”
“I’m nothing special.”
“I think you’re plenty special.”
You rolled your eyes, showing a little of that sassy spark that always ignited around him. His eyes crinkled in response just a little, and you groaned loudly.
“There! You’re doing it again.”
Jinyoung exhaled a sharp laugh and folded his arms over his chest, jutting out his jaw to gesture at you. “Doing what? All I did was react to you.”
“That’s half the problem!” you bemoaned dramatically. “This is why I can never get rid of you.”
“Since when were you trying to?”
You gave him a pointed look and he grinned smugly in reply.
“Jinyounggggg!”
“Y/N!” he sang back and you failed to hide your amusement.
This is how you always were. He had no idea why you were trying to remove him from your life all the time. You both knew that it was better when he was in it.
You sighed deeply again, the amusement rolling off your shoulders and allowing you to sink back into your morose depths. Jinyoung clucked his tongue at that and you glanced up at him curiously.
“None of that.”
“None of what?” you wondered and he stepped up to you, placing his hands upon your rounded shoulders. You allowed him to ply you into an upright position, your chest no longer hollow but standing tall. You gave him a sharp glare. “What are you doing?”
“Reshaping you and your mood.”
“Why?”
He inhaled deeply before catching your gaze, holding you captive. It wasn’t hard to do. Much as he was always watching you, your eyes never seemed to stray far from his. So much could be said between you because of how well you could look each other in the eye.
Still, he voiced aloud his response. “You just asked me why it’s always me. You know why. Because without me, you’d be lost.”
“Without you, I could be much more productive.”
He smirked. “Damn me and my good looks, huh?”
“Really? You have no shame,” you announced, though he could tell by the way your gaze briefly travelled him that you wouldn’t refute his cheeky statement either.
“Without me,” he continued, “You’d have less fun. Who would you banter with?”
“Well--”
“Without me, who would get you out of your funky moods and remind you just how fortunate you are as a person?”
“Alright, alright!” You shrugged him and his pep talk off of your shoulders, thankfully not collapsing back into your murky sea of thoughts.
Jinyoung smiled softly, though his eyes remained searching, hoping you wouldn’t let anyone else rock that boat of yours.
You sighed, for what felt like the umpteenth time, before willingly moving through the gap between you, wrapping your arms around him and relaxing into his shape. Jinyoung was convinced that his body was made exactly the way it had been just to fit you perfectly against it. Pulling you in closer, he placed his cheek upon the side of your head and hummed softly.
“Who upset you from loving me?”
“A friend. Or maybe it was myself. Surely, it’s been too long stuck on you.”
“Or not long enough.”
You scoffed lightly but didn’t pull away, clinging to your biggest muse like he was your lifeline in a powerful storm. He wanted to bring you back into his calmer waters, ensuring that you knew you were safe loving him. You always would be.
“You’re the worst, you know,” you mumbled into his neck and he chuckled, nodding his head against you.
“As you always keep saying.”
“And... you’re the best too.”
“What’s this?!” he exclaimed, pulling back just enough to look at you. “Was that praise I just heard coming from you?!”
You rolled your eyes but smiled, all the same, burying back into him.
“Maybe I am special.”
“Plenty special,” Jinyoung agreed.
“And you are too. I’m pretty lucky to still have you.”
“Eyyy. What would you do without me?”

God, i always feel like I'm full of things to say and have no energy to say them. What have i been reading since the last time i posted here?
The governor's illness something is wrong with the governor: Fine! Had some tasty components, but didn't super stick with me. It felt like it struggled to find its momentum and didnt have strong end to end flow
Is my attacker a ghost?: Fun, the bullying sections are a bit hard to read, and it did feel like it blew its load before the actual end of the story, but I have an increased appreciation for spoopy stories that aren't full-on HORROR
I excavated an emperor to become my wife: only partway through, but enjoying it! I wish this had a bit more spoop, but the concept is very fun to me
My husband and i sleep in the same coffin: also only partway through. It's fun, but having trouble finding its momentum, and I think the combination of fully decamping to the modern world plus trying to Humorously describe a person of..... multiracial descent? (i think???) kind of stalled me out. (his name means white jade, which is funny, because his skin is very DARK, you see) (I'm not sure how much is on the translator versus the author versus my own understanding, but it kind of killed my momentum)
After marrying the disabled god of war as my concubine: a delight!!! Some of the most fun I've had reading an imperial succession story, and it's such a galaxy brain move to make the modern person suddenly dumped into the past a professional history nerd (university history lecturer)
You yao/are you okay: holy shit, so clever and fun. The idea of having a world not dealing with a SINGLE transmigrator, but a SYSTEMIC PLAGUE of transmigrators, and then playing with concepts like a connecticut yankee in king arthur's court on that scale.... hot damn. This is the same author as the next one, and their brain is SO big.
How ridiculous/how dare you: okay, so a modern office worker transmigrates into a book. She transmigrates into a TRANSMIGRATION BOOK. I'm not done yet, i had to put it down because it was SO good that i got overwhelmed and stressed out. But i would officially follow this author into hell now
Married the scum gong's villain brother: good, but in a quiet way where I don't feel much urge to return or gush about it! In modern mundane settings, where the only significant plot thread is getting the relationship pinned down, i feel like it's relatively easy to set up a compelling beginning, but much harder to see it through to the end with as much momentum. It wasn't bad! But it wasn't notable.
After being forced to marry the evil star general: still not done, but it's the book in progress I'm most active on. This. This is tasty. It's not as clown4clown as peerless was, but it's one of the closer books ive found to the antagonistic fascination those two leads brought, if you follow. It's a lot of fun! One main character very much has a stone cold bitch energy a la cui buqu, though also like him, the lines between a natural rancid personality and a deliberate act are also blurred. This one is compelling!!
And, not a cnovel, but a korean one: got dropped into a ghost story, still gotta work. So imagine. There was a fictional universe kind of like the scp foundation fused with the greater creepypasta ecosystem. And imagine some poor fucker transmigrated into that universe as a drone worker in a business that profits from harvesting these stories. And imagine he's a massive fan of the universe, but is ALSO a massive horror weenie who can't even handle looking at the pictures sometimes included in these stories. YEAH, IT'S DELIGHTFUL. This book isn't actually complete yet, which I'm grumpy about, i had the distinct impression it was when I heard about it, but part one appears to be complete and it's BEEFY. Even incomplete, there's some really awesome stuff in here.

...[I stare down at the ground with a blank expression slowly drawing a knife from behind my back] ...I...uh what are you...doing...uh...[I go silent taking a deep breath as I look over to the knife before up at him] ... I'm...uhm...Shit, Michael words...use your words...uh...to be honest I have no clue how to kill someone...bought this knife...was going to stab you...maybe? ...maybe not? ...Either way... now you know so it's kind of pointless...I mean I'm not someone who just y'know...goes on murderous rampages...
[I go silent as I place the knife down on the desk] ...Which entity I'm connected too? ...[I go silent for a moment thinking before speaking up] ...I- ...I mean I'm an incredibly paranoid person y'know? ... like... something goes wrong and suddenly it feels like it's the end of the world... claustrophobia...lord it's... it's not fun...What was I thinking about bringing the knife in? ...Now that you say it... I'm not sure...maybe to turn it on myself? ... maybe to turn it on you? ...Yeah...maybe? ...
...
AH RIGHT THE ENTITY I'M CONNECTED WITH! Sorry trailed off for a second...The buried...had a few experiences when I was younger...uh...to be honest I didn't think they'd continue, but y'know...
I accidentally got myself locked up in the attic after seeing my dad go up there, I'm terrified of heights so I have NO clue why I even thought it was a good idea but the second that door shut and I was trapped in the dark in this small cramped place...I was in tears...[I shiver at the thought] Eugh... not a nice memory... but every now and again I feel everything closing in on me...I feel it getting more difficult to breathe... feeling like every mistake is the end of the world... it's like getting buried alive despite being above the ground and walking around...I hate the dark, I hate thunderstorms the noises scare me to bits and sometimes if it's extremely bad it feels like I'm about to die right there and then...I know I won't...but there's just a part of me that feels like... it's not okay...that things WON'T get better...and... I'm... scared that one day...[I pick up the knife and start fiddling with it] I'm scared that one day... I'll get...that I'll get...trapped somewhere...where there's no escape...where I'll be unable to escape...no scream will be enough to...get me out...Where ... I'll be alone... I'll be alone and... dying...and...not able to breath... I've already gone through some experiences... could've just been me and my young mind changing what happened...but I've felt like my life has been breaking apart every now and again...but some days it's fine...when it's not...it feels like it's all over...and it scares me...[My voice trails off as I stare at the knife in my hands] ...
[I snap out of whatever trance I was in before looking up at him] Uhhhh...okay um..that... that...that...uh... listen I was kind of a dick earlier...I just like scaring people sometimes...maybe y'know I was a bit HARSH...[I stand there awkwardly before laughing nervously] No that's an understatement, definitely an understatement...I SWEAR I'M NOT THAT BAD OF A PERSON! I-I mean I even bought a knife in!
...Wait...[I look down at the tape recorder] Waaaaait a damn minute hold on...is...is that on? ...[I go silent staring at it] ...Yeah...yeah I ...it is ...why? Are...are you trying to plot something against me or something? Is this some scheme to get me sent away by the police and get me in a cell for attempted murder or something? I mean I don't know if I even have the guts to use this, I didn't really think I just bought this just in case I was in danger...I dunno... can't trust anyone these days can you? ... Can't even trust myself apparently...ha...oh...shit...
Oh boy, I broke into the archives I hope nothing bad happens! ...
Holy fuck it's a tall, skinny, middle aged, sleep deprived, paranoid, anxiety filled british man!
...Oh wait sorry I should probably introduce myself, I'm Michael!
Uh and you're the infamous Jonathan Sims I think? Yeahhh I heard of you before, you seem like a...um...a nice guyyy? Maybeeee? ...
... How'd I get into the archives? ...👀 ...
Don't even worry about that! ^^;
You know.. Michael... the other day I was talking about the amount of Jonathans in the world. But nothing can compare to the sheer amount of Michaels that burst into my office without permission.
Yes. I am jonathan sims. No I am not a nice guy. Well I can be. Not to people that startle me like this...
I do have to ask. Why are you here? For real..?

the rwd season 4 qna inspired me to start thinking about college au headcanons except a lot of these are gonna be really specific to my school and y'all are just gonna have to deal with that <3
Kyana feeds some of the school cats. she would feed all of them if she could
Dani smuggled Plug (the scrawniest black cat you've ever seen) into her dorm room illegally and somehow management hasn't caught her yet (based on a true story) (Kyana visits to see Plug all the time)
Finbar keeps an updated tier list of every canteen in the school with breakdowns of the best stalls/dishes for each
A senior from the school of engineering once said to me 'all the engineering people dress like rats cuz our classrooms don't have aircon' (context: tropics) anyway that's Dani
Kyana would probably be involved in a lot of freshman orientation events from second year onwards. she just likes talking to the new kids and giving them advice like she would be the kind of orientation group leader who'd get messages from her freshies asking about all kinds of random nonsense because she's made sure they know they can always contact her with questions
VR-LA is The Guy you go to for textbook pirating resources
(this is more of a 'wouldn't that be funny' but VR-LA is just Veerle's discord handle)
Docent is the name of VR-LA's old laptop that broke down so he gave it to Cassimere (computer engineering major he met once at a networking event) to fix except Cassimere got everything off the hard drive and then somehow managed to fuck it up Even More so he had to get a new laptop (and named it Emi)
Roy has gotten food poisoning from his dorm meal plan at least once (based on at least one true story)
The heap trio + Mandy would be those friends constantly playing majong in the dorm lounge and if all the majong tables are taken they just play in one of their dorm rooms on a towel to dampen the tile shuffling noises (it was Mandy's idea)
Every morning Dani goes to the drinks stall at her faculty and orders one iced coffee to the point where the stall owner starts preparing an iced coffee whenever they see her approach (based on my true story)
Roy would be one of those people who goes clubbing every other week and every time he tries to drag the rest of the heap trio and Egan almost always goes and Dani would go if she didn't have a good excuse but always begrudgingly. anyway Roy would always be the only one having a good time until Egan gets drunk enough to start having fun
Finbar actually uses the dorm kitchens instead of just buying canteen food and it always makes the hallways smell really good
Vhas also uses the dorm kitchen sometimes but like. one time i walked into the pantry on my floor and someone had left cut sweet potatoes and 2 eggs in an inch of water in a pan on the stove. that's Vhas
Kyana's constantly applying for overseas exchanges and international summer/winter school programmes. the world is large and she wants to see it!
Maxim's the definition of a hall phantom. you know he lives on your dorm floor because you pass him by in the hallways sometimes and literally nowhere else. sometimes you're not convinced that he actually exists
VR-LA and Maxim's friendship stems from them being from wildly different faculties (VR-LA's in STEM, Maxim's doing anthropology so arts/social sciences) but also having lots of weird interests they cant really bug anyone in their home faculties about
Elyse is in student government and every once in a while Finbar receives a series of angry texts about the newest idiocy she's had to put up with
MR-SN and AS-TR start a stargazing club together. other notable members include AS-TR's girlfriend E-DN, MR-SN's friend C-RA (the one who always volunteers to carry the heavy ass telescopes) and MR-SN's friend K-LB who he pestered into coming to fix one of the wonky scopes even though K-LB's actually in electrical engineering but he's the only engineering person MR-SN (an arts student) knows
oh and of course VR-LA joins because he genuinely just likes space (developing a crush on his club chairperson was not on his bingo card)
Kyana and E-DN were MMA sparring buddies at one point which is how she found out about the stargazing and joined immediately
honestly i can probably think of more but this post is fuckin long LMAO
#rolling with difficulty#'do not let the internet turn you into an american' i say as i make posts that can be understood by me and me only#i mean im not sorry about it this is my house#like my experiences are just gonna be extra incomprehensible because my countrys fuckin tiny so the target audience really is me and me onl#too bad! you think its hard to read my posts? i gotta live like this!#if i sound extra confrontational i got 5 hours of sleep for the whole week unfortunately so just know its all /lh more or less#really tempted to make some kind of business major joke for roy even though obviously the heap trio would all be in engineering#bc its just common knowledge in my school that business majors are the ones with the most free time to go clubbing all the damn time#and *also* theyre the faculty that dresses the best which also tracks??#didnt really nail down specific majors for everyone (besides the obvious ones like food science for finbar and mech eng for dani)#but i kinda like the idea of cs for VR-LA because of that 'programmers are real world wizards' joke and also.. projecting#cs with focus area in AI would even make sense bc of docent and emi. if i want to make the projecting Even Worse!#also if i ever do human designs for the old crew (doubtful cuz i find drawing robots more fun than drawing humans)#look up sally hansen hypnautical nail polish bc i wanna give human AS-TR that as a nod to her original design#didnt really get into the fashion of it all bc again i live in the tropics so nobody really dresses well here#the goal is to dress to not sweat more often than it is dress to look good#hands down my favourite line in the cqna was noir's i thermoregulate through my forearms#so in the middle of summer i still wear all black and just roll up my sleeves#like thats ME. except its summer ALL YEAR ROUND#walao#asto speaks

Just me and my overactive mind facing the nighttime again 🙃
#hopefully the meds work but while waiting for them to kick in I get so damn nervous#and sometimes I do get nights where even on my full dose my anxiety is too overpowering and I just. Do Not Sleep#I mean I do eventually but not without spiraling first :')#way before I was prescribed sleep meds my longest was 3 nights without sleep while on a VERY stressful trip#I felt like I was gonna die and I did not sleep until I got off the plane and was back at home#(this was like 15 years ago already but it still haunts me fhfgsgdh)#my best friend and I were having a conversation today#and she was like 'not sleeping can make you hallucinate right?'#and I was like :') I get the hallucinations in other scenarios too#BUT I also get what she meant#not sleeping is really bad for me mentally which is why I can't do 'sleep restriction therapy'#and fun fact#a lot of my OCD obsessions revolve around sleep!!!#which is 'awesome' because laying in bed with insomnia makes my OCD flare up so like#the two get to feed off each other and make my life a living hell!!!#and don't even get me started on my sleep paralysis episodes#(which I like to think of as just my brain misfiring but that my aunt tells me is saints or demons trying to talk to me)#'cause she hallucinates too but hers are like 'spiritual' or whatever#same with my mom's hallucinations as well#and to add fuel to the dumpster fire of my mind and body is the fact I've been overcaffeinating again#which I've known not to do ever since I was in middle school and saw the pediatric cardiologist who specifically said 'hey don't do that'#fast-forward to adulthood and I still haven't learned how to handle anything#like. I have heart meds and sleep meds and migraine meds and IBS meds#and yes meds are good but like. I know you need to incorporate lifestyle changes as well#which I do for like 2 weeks until the next time I fuck up#I've been so irresponsible lately but like. ESPECIALLY today#didn't eat#took some meds on an empty stomach and forgot to take my other ones at all#had too much caffeine#stressed out over some stupid situations thanks to overthinking

Venti, Zhongli, and opposites. Venti, Zhongli, and opposites. I do not want to write Venti, Zhongli, and opposites.
#rambles#three requests for venti#two requests for zhongli#three requests for opposites#out of eight requests#both of them paired up with opposites#tbh i have no interest in writing venti or zhongli with the prompt of opposites#there's so many different words on that list yet two of those requests are for prompts not on the list#so out of 8 requests only four words were chosen#is the list of words really that bad that everyone has to choose opposites or to come up with something original?#i hate people so much#nobody wants to deviate from what they can understand#opposites is such a simple prompt with not much room for interpretation#the only interesting one was xiangling and opposites bc that actually sounds really cute#but zhongli and venti? what do you want from me?#there are so many damn good words on that list that can make cute fics that people would want to read#maybe i'll just send myself some requests 🙄#for example ayato and intrigue is a good one. what would cause ayato to become intrigued with someone?#heizou and obscured is another good one because they play against each other#alhaitham and revelation is a damn good one. how can we make the smartest man have a revelation?#diluc and solace. what kind of person does reader have to be for diluc to find solace in them?#furina and nostalgia is a good one. fischl and resilience. kokomi and dissonance.#ningguang and brazen would be a particularly fun one. someone acting brazenly before her#this is such a good list but people choose the most boring prompts#and no you guys are not allowed to steal these prompts to send in#thoma and turbulence had potential for angst but also dissonance works too#idk man idk

#I feel. like I get too worried about putting my stuff in the tags LOL#or just too worried about ants in general#but to be fair I've come from some really infested fandoms#where people got reported for this stuff so hard they were removed from the site#idk if tumblr changed it though. maybe they did. where if someone hit a certain number of reports on their account they got removed#whether they were breaking TOS or not#I think that could have been changed because I don't see it happen anymore#but the more I cared about this tumblr acc the more scared of that I got LOL#it's been super peaceful though???#this could just be because I blocked like half the fandom before posting anything here#but I haven't received any hate mail & haven't had any sort of callout like I was expecting#and I guess mallesil isn't really SUPER controversial#it's leaning off the gray area lately but it is still in the gray area#I just feel like I'm cheating with how easy it is to ''get away'' with having HEY I LIKE INCEST front and center on my pinned and all#when I've seen someone get reported off the map for making one singular post saying they don't mind people who ship child characters#and I've just gotten away with posting sooo many mallesil posts in the main tags lately I'm like huh??? Did I ever actually need to worry?#it's kind of embarrassing I guess having several things in my Posts That Do Not Go Into The Main Tags#that I'm just now realizing were probably totally fine to put out there lol#like damn maybe I can just talk about lilia kissing silver with tongue and get away with it????#anyway#while I am on the subject of things I am embarrassed about for no reason#I feel especially bad lately for not posting like ANYTHING about sebek or lilia most of the time lol#I made a point to draw all the twst characters at least once a while ago but I don't think I've actually drawn sebek more than that?#sorry sebek I love you sebek :(#sebesil is such a good ship and I just have absolutely zero passion for it I DON'T KNOW!!! It just isn't there for me!!!#I like it a lot I love all the ship art for it I like seeing it pop up in fics#but if you leave me to my own devices I'm. not going to think about them even a little probably lol...#I do think about mallesebe sometimes though. I wrote about them once for the request. they're so fun they're so awful#and yet. most of the thoughts I have for mallesebe I'm just like hrmmmm this could be mallesil instead#sorry again sebek I love you sebek 😭
