#the big gap is between them and tyler posey

[eevylynn]

The more I see art or fanfics where Derek is like half a foot or more taller than Stiles, the more I headcanon that when Stiles stopped growing, he's an inch or so taller than Derek.

2-2 It’s not a secret that Teen Wolf Season 3B – the Stiles Stilinski centric season entirely focused on Stiles/Void Stiles and with star & breakout star of the show Dylan O’Brien as front and center – is the highest rated and most critically acclaimed season of the show and everyone’s favorite (including Tyler Posey’s.) Personally, I liked Season 4 too, especially the Scira scenes. Nothing against Scott/Malia being canon endgame and true love, but Scira was obviously better imo

I’m going to be burned at the stake for this, but season 4 was better. Seasons 1 and 2 were also better. 3a was meh but Motel California was the best episode of the whole damn show. Scira should have been endgame. Scalia was sloppy and mediocre at best.

If I’m to be executed for this post already, today’s hot take is that not all Stiles fans are racist and you don’t have to be racist to be a Stiles fan but so much of the racism in the fandom has to do with him that people should be careful what exactly they’re defending.

The character of Stiles is okay, I guess. Personally I much preferred Boyd, Erica, Isaac, other such characters, and struggled to like Stiles when he kept pestering them to do huge favors for him. I really didn’t like how the show painted Stiles as the complete good guy we can all relate to and all the characters who disagreed with him or didn’t want to be friends with him as annoying low-level villains and antagonists. If I were Danny or Boyd or Erica or Isaac or Lydia or wow this is a long list I wouldn’t want to be friends with him either. Kid’s kind of annoying. Asks giant favors and never tells anyone why he needs them, doesn’t actually come up with very great plans, does plenty to put himself and his friends into danger, and the amount he pined after Lydia long after it was cute and fun always bugged me. Might just be that I don’t ship them, but still. Stiles has plenty of good jokes and decent character traits, but he’s not the messiah, unlike some tumblr posts raving about how Stiles is literally perfect would have you believe.

I’m glad it’s not very popular to be anti-Scott, but I’m always a little annoyed by the sheer amount of content in this fandom that is Stiles and Derek and Stiles and Derek only. I’ve seen maybe four other blogs that consistently post original content about characters of color from the show and have something to say about the problematic parts of the fandom. Reblogging posts is fine and welcome, but the fact that I’m the only person I’ve seen posting gifs of Deaton or Mason or Boyd in the last month is troubling. Lots of people in this fandom create original content, be it artwork and fanfiction or gifs and textposts. That so many of them are Sterek or Stiles when there are so many other characters and ships on the show bugs me. I’ve read posts where people say that they stopped watching the show when Derek was written off for a season or however long it was. I’ve read posts from people who didn’t watch 6b because Stiles wasn’t main credits. I’ve read posts expressing so much anger that Sterek never became canon, that it was a slap in the face to queer fans or whatever. The amount of queerbaiting about them was, especially because of the very big age gap, the fact that one of them is underage, and the amount of attention that a ship between two white boys that was never canon got, especially in comparison to the complete lack of content about canon queer characters and ships. Caitlin and Emily. Mason and Corey. What’s the difference between Sterek and the canon ships? Sterek is two white male characters, and the others aren’t. Brett, an openly bisexual character with a not insignificant part who was killed off young and never got a romantic interest or exploration of his backstory, is largely forgotten by angry Sterek shippers.

The reason 3b is so popular is that Stiles is the main character of it. I related a lot to him that season, when previously I didn’t like him that much, and the scenes he had with Scott in the hospital and when he was un-possessed, and with a lot of other characters while he was possessed (calling Melissa “mom” hurt that cavern where my heart should be) were emotional and good. That he was possessed by the Japanese fox spirit that was the main villain when he is, in fact, white, not so much. A season that started by being about Kitsune and Japanese mythology ended up being a season about the white boy fans project onto much more than the non-white main character. Kira and the other actual Japanese characters fell by the wayside and the pretty white boy got the spotlight, again. He saved the day, just like he saved the day in the show’s finale, and in the finale before that. Stiles does a lot of day-saving. He’s like Wesley from Star Trek -- you can tell if you look closely that a director or exec. producer was self-inserting a little bit. Always right and always saving the day.

It’s not bad to like Stiles. He’s a fine character. He’s not my type, but I can acknowledge that Dylan O’Brien is attractive, even when they shaved his head and said he was just some loser nerd no one at the high school wanted to hang out with (yeah, sure). He has a lot of flaws, the constant asking for favors definitely one of them, but he grows a lot as a character and he does have redeeming qualities. And the “mom” scene. Oh my GOD. I’m a sucker for the “kids without 1+ parent in the picture calling someone mom or dad” trope. I’m such a sucker. But despite his good qualities, he’s not perfect. Characters who disagree with him are not inherently in the wrong. In fact, a lot of them aren’t in the wrong at all. Why the hell would Boyd trust him with anything? Why would Danny like the annoying kid in his economics class who asks him invasive questions? The racism in this fandom involving pitting Scott against Stiles and painting Boyd to be annoying and unhelpful and ignoring canonically queer ships for non-canon queer ships but white is not the fault of the actor or the character, it’s the fault of the writers who wrote those scenes and the fandom that just cannot get enough of the poor innocent white boy.

TL;DR is that it doesn’t matter who you ship or who you like or what your opinions are, it matters that you acknowledge racism and implicit biases in the narrative we were given, and make an attempt to do better than the show did. Instead of defending Stiles as the messiah and attacking Scott for being a bad friend for literally eight episodes of one long-ass and mediocre season, take criticisms of him and Sterek to heart, and diversify your content and your reblogs to include actual queer characters, characters of color, female characters, female characters of color, female queer characters, and queer characters of color. Teen Wolf has all of those. And if you don’t like one or two of them, that’s okay. But if you don’t like any of them, maybe you should re-evaluate. No one’s going to hold it against you. We’re all too starved for good character development.

INTRODUCING…. wanted plots.

oh wOW alright so i’m gonna be basic for a second and tell y’all that i fucking love angst. i mean, fluff’s great and all, but my heart truly lies with the gritty, toxic, dysfunctional, and fucked up. i’m also a huge fan of anything having to do with crime so if you ever wanna do any crime plots come my way !!!  it’s also no secret that i’m a very big fan of age gaps ( obvs not with minors because GROSS ). but seriously, give me everything. friends or exes or enemies to lovers, two toxic people that know they should walk away from each other but can’t live without the other, criminals on the run, any kind of criminal or bad influence with pure characters that have hearts made of gold, characters that go through something horrible together and become each other’s lifeline because they’re the only ones that understand, secret and / or taboo relationships, slowburn and unrequited love, exes that reconnect under literally any kind of circumstances, etc. i’ll link some good examples of my favorite plots so you can get a feel for what i’m describing !!!

x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x are all some ( hopefully ) pretty good examples !!

i’m also always down for plots away from the romantic side of things. i LOVE giving my characters ride or dies, enemies, exes, family, or anything else you can think of. the more unique the connection the better !! legit one of the best relationships i ever played out in an rp was between carcosa and another girl. totally platonic, but it was such a rich and fucked up dynamic that was full of toxicity and power struggles and manipulation and backstabbing, but also drunken benders and risky adventures and late night confessions, and those were easily some of the funnest threads and plotting sessions i’ve ever had. so please, like i said, give me all of the connections.

INTRODUCING…. the favorites.

i’m totally gonna break this down into quick lil sections because i have a lot of favorite things lmao so here you go !!!

SHIPS

tbh i have so many favorite crackships so pls don’t even get me started on those ?? but i love both f/f and m/f ships and have absolutely zero preference when it comes to which one we do. i’m also a huge fan of poly ships and i’ll never say no to having multiple ships/plots/threads with the same person. i’m very much a multi-ship kinda gal so as long as it’s cool with my writing partner(s) i tend to assume each ship is in it’s own little verse unless otherwise discussed. though i’m totally down for and love ic drama so don’t be afraid to approach me about ships existing in the same timeline !! i’m a fan of everything from the sickly sweet and fluffy to the fucked up, toxic, and angsty so just give me all of the ships because tbh i’m a slut for ‘em.

FACES

alright so some of my favorite faces to play are holland roden, lucy hale, phoebe tonkin, eiza gonzalez, madelaine petsch, katherine mcnamara, dove cameron, halsey, emma greenwell, maggie lindemann, emmy rossum, madison davenport, lynn gunn, vanessa morgan, carlson young, deborah ann woll, and maggie siff. some of my favorite ladies to play against are zoey deutch, lindsey morgan, kat graham, vanessa morgan, dua lipa, eliza taylor, adelaide kane, candice patton, dove cameron, arden cho, chloe bennet, vanessa hudgens, danielle campbell, ashley benson, margot robbie, blake lively, ginny gardner, angelina jolie, emeraude toubia, meghan markle, and zoe kravitz. some of my favorite fellas to play against are charlie hunnam, jon bernthal, dj cotrona, charles melton, manny montana, oscar isaac, andy biersack, andrew lincoln, chris evans, bob morley, garrett hedlund, tom hardy, jason momoa, tyler posey, michael b. jordan, frank grillo, jeffrey dean morgan, dom sherwood, jensen ackles, skeet ulrich, and froy gutierrez.

EXTRAS

 just for fun, here’s a mismatched list of some of my favorite things across the board !! snakes, glitter, the colors purple, teal, and black, dogs, iced coffee, horror movies, outlaw bikers, drag queens, classic rock, vinyl records, bath and body works, geodes, mexican food, pulp fiction, the moon and stars, tattoos, neon lights, iasip, succulents and cacti, richard siken, candles, myths and folklore, metallic lipstick, sons of anarchy, and concerts.

INTRODUCING…. future plans.

tbh i hope to get a lot of things out of this group. i’m hoping to find a safe space to let my creativity run wild and a home for my muses where they can constantly grow and develop through interactions with other characters, in-depth plots, and my own exploration the more i write with them. i’m also hoping this will be a good opportunity to make friends, since i’m very much a loner and some of the best people i’ve met have been through the world of roleplaying. i definitely want to push my muses and challenge myself to be a better writer here, and i hope to help out those of you that are seeking the same things in your journey !! i’m already planning on adding some more muses in the very near future ( because i have ZERO impulse control ), and as far as future plans for plots go i want EVERYTHING. romantic, enemies, exes, familial, platonic, and literally anything in between. i would definitely love some slowburn ships where our characters don’t just fall in love overnight. i’d also be so down for exploring the dynamics of age gap relationships. not just the taboo aspect of them but like the differences in generations, the potential repercussions, the ups and downs and the times where they’re not sure if they can make it work.

INTRODUCING…. why i said fuck it.

i mean who hasn’t felt like saying fuck it to the rpc ??? i’ve been rping for several years, about six of those years have been on tumblr and as much love as i can have for this community at times, most days it’s just fucking exhausting. i feel like it’s mostly become a very toxic, judgmental, and honestly shallow place. i hate the expectation groups put on members these days with activity checks and whatnot because honestly who even has the time to write every single day ????? or y’know sometimes we just don’t feel like it ?????? i know for me personally between my mental health and irl responsibilities i just don’t have the time or energy to be on every two days. and plus a lot of them are cliquey af or die in a week or are riddled with petty drama so i tend to avoid them altogether. i joined the indie community in hopes of rping on my terms and while i def feel like that was a step in the right direction, it’s still a very exclusive community at times and i’ve had difficulty fitting in. there’s still a lot of ugliness towards female ocs or muns that exclusively play females and tbh i’m over it ??? i decided to give this group a try because i love the idea of the indie format but in a group, making it easier to plot with people and put yourself out there. tl;dr i decided to say fuck it because the community’s gone downhill and i needed a change.
