[woahajimes]

oh i wilsl .

[cutielatias]

finally we/I played true colors (i was owning this for a time, because we played this in August,and now it's already December😅💦) the text is some reactions and thoughts that I/we had while playing the game

"jeez,comparing alex to sean,sean actually sounds like a genuine nice person (she is a jerk😒) now i know why i liked/like sean (i will no longer complain about him,ha-ha😂,no, just kiddin,i will)"

"for someone with the power of "empathy"alex sounds more like a manipulator than an actual empathy person,she uses other's emotions to get what she wants/make they say what she wants,that feels wrong"

"what this game/franchise have against reserved people?!💢alex is so jerk with that diane,and i hate it!she so jerk with her💢(the woman is just keeping/doing her job😒)"

"i thought that alex was starting to become more likeable on ep3, but then i read her diary(diane's part)and the laptop part (at the ending)no,no, she still jerk😑"

"the cop looks like cody from "it takes two" haha😂,(diane is may😂😂😂)"

"i didn't understand nothing of alex past life/the old phone messages😕 (and by the way whata heck was that with that isaac guy!!?that was weird, was very obvious that the guy want something more with her, it's not possible that she couldn't read the guy's mind and sense that he wanted to hook up with her(I doubt that she can't sense lust💢)i mean, i think she kinda wanted too😒,but,idk why but the impression that i have of this situation is that alex and the guy were hooking up and in the middle of that, alex reads/feels the guy emotions during the s*x, and the thoughts were kinda wild (but in a red flag way)and that made her kinda uncomfortable,and she gets weird with the guy,and then she blocks him,ugh~😑,fuckin weird situation"

"almost faint when i saw that mexican letter (and not in a good way)i was worried that would be something do to with sean and daniel💦 and thank god that was not💨"

"the ending super coherent with us😂, were the olds that stayed on our side, me and ana have something that we always have more affinity with older people(and vice versa)"

"it even gives me a little feeling to look to this menu image, I remember the day that we finished the game, it was even a little melancholy to look/get out of the menu, I like the menu song, the music is nice✨(i like the instrumental/menu version more but the voice version is ok too) , and by the way no one gonna talk about the fact that the group that plays the song has a Portuguese name "novo amor"maybe cuz is nothin important😂😂😅 its just a name😅💦,but i find funny cuz this game seens to have a "big" brazillian fanbase so i thought someone would say something, but no, no one says nothin(i don't know if is the brazillian portuguese now thinking can be the portugal one) just an useless funny fact😅😂(at first a thought that "novo amor" was the song's name, but the songs name is haven, "novo amor" is the singer)"

"I didn't find true colors a copy of the others "life is stranges" like people were saying at the time(of course, that some of concepts are very similar from the preview ones😅,i do noticed that, but they did in a different way), for me it's kinda different from the others, it's not like the first or the second and neither to before the storm (which I thought was more likely because both were by decknine)"

"i thought that after i liked the second one if i played another game of the franchise, i would like it too(cuz i'll be honest i never really liked this franchise, i find the concept interesting, but i didn't like the characters very much) but after that I liked the second one, I thought that maybe I would't roll my eyes with the franchise anymore, but no, I roll my eyes with true colors as the same way as I roll with the others, it's reallys only the second one that I put up with/the one that has the spark, it's as if the feeling that I feel with this franchise always still the same, it's only the second one that I like/liked,like imagine that you are someone who doesn't like coffee, but one day you drink a certain coffee and you like it , and with that you think, now that I liked this coffee, maybe I don't have problem with coffee anymore, but no, you drink the other coffees and you still don't like it, it's just that one coffee that you like/liked(crazy example but its the only one that could think about it😅😅😅)"

Might be self indulgent but....... How good are they at babysitting?

Sorry, I didn't notice the ask! Tumbrl mobile notification system is very broken.

Maki is like the cool vine aunt already at the age of 16. She's bubbly and active, and also doesn't really have restraints about behaving "properly", such as not getting her clothes dirty or being awkward in public, things like that. That energy makes her a great babysitter overall, especially for primary school aged kids, but she'll also get very drained and overwhelmed by the end of the day, so she wouldn't do that well with babysitting for more than a day at a time.

Karin should not be allowed near children, period. Okay, well, she's not terrible - she has restraint and reason and wouldn't be a bad babysitter on purpose, but she'd be very irritated and annoyed by that responsibility when she could be doing something she'd actually be interested in - so not great, unless her interests and personality click with a child she's caring for in a particular way.

Kairi is pretty good - he's usually patient and calm, but also very gullible and easy to trick into doing just about whatever that might get them both in trouble. He'll get along with calm kids just fine, but might have issues with more active ones.

Suzuka is grumpy and snappy and will complain the entire time, but she's fitting enough to take care of some basic needs - cooking and first aid is her speciality. Entertainment and emotional support, not so much. Not a disaster, but not really good of a babysitter, either.

Akari gets too anxious and scared within the first half an hour, which probably results in kids babysitting her, if we're being honest.

Reishi would not do great. He doesn't have good experiences with kids, and will probably be distant, both physically and emotionally, and borderline neglectful. Like Karin, he'll only be okay in very specific instances.

Thanks for the ask!

[aspoonofsugar]

Hello!!!! Anon who asked about your process here!! Oh my god. Oh my god. This is literally nothing short of being enlightened. I’m really so grateful you took so much time to help others by sharing what you know. It’s really just so generous of you- years maybe, of just. So much experience and knowledge. Absolutely speechless with how much you shared. It was not confusing, not even one bit. I really feel so lucky to be able to learn directly from who I look up to 😭 It’s really a blessing one can never come by. Your kindness and generosity to growing artists is. Baffling 🫂🫂🫂🫂 thank you so much!!!!!!!! do you mind also sharing how you started, or what made you start?? I’m kind of really curious about what road you took I guess that lead you to discover so much about. Everything you know now 😭 honestly wait going off track- personally speaking taking such a close look and picking apart something you love is such an awesome thing. The fact that you’re curious about impact, impression and meaning of a work to such an extent in which you analyze it, break it down, by observing it so compassionately- i really feel like you’re doing the artists good. To me there’s little else that conveys ‘this is meaningful. This is so cool to me!’ to such an extent, so ridiculously clearly and passionately. If I were one of the artists you’d had written for, I would be ecstatic to see someone so compassionate and obsessed(?exaggerating) with my work and the meaning of/behind it. Your passion and love towards your subjects is ridiculous evident in your work, and I just hope you know that it’s. It’s really amazing, what you’re doing. How clearly it means something to you. As an artist, I can’t help but feel excited just for whoever artist you wrote an analysis for.

once again oh my godddddd thank you so so so ridiculously much for your time attention and support its actually so much more than I could ever ask for!!!!!!! I will pay you back with being so awesome and promising I’ll make good use of all the everything!! The everything!!!!! I’m so sorry oh my gosh too excited after reading your reply

HI!! writing process anon here!! what i meant to say in my last ask was that your love and compassion shows through very clearly in your analysis’!!!!! Your blatant appreciation through meticulous efforts in breaking down meaning and what it entails/entailed shine through in everything you write. Thank you so much for all you do!!!!

Hello anon!

Awwww thank you so much for your nice words, they really mean a lot! And I am happy my answer was useful <3

As for how I started... I was Meta Anon in @hambliet's askbox!

I started by reading analyses here on tumbrl and before making a blog of my own I was an anon sharing my thoughts in people's inboxes. Hamliet realized it was the same person sending her meta-thoughts and after some time I made my own blog and here I am <3

Thank you for passing by and I hope you have fun analyzing stories, as much as I do! It really is an activity that brings me joy!

Why Karushuu does not work

in light of Karushuu week 2021 happening I have decided to talk a little bit of why Karushuu, well, will not work out. I am still a very avid Karushuu shipper HAHA not to worry friends I have not sunk the ship, I just figured it'd be fun to do this!

--

Firstly, both Gakushuu and Karma have bad lives at home with their families, which already serve to skew their perceptions of what should be a safe space. Gakushuu's entire life is molded around competition, and he clings to it in a very toxic way (because of the principal). He brings that competition home. On the other side, Karma has neglectful absent parents and consequently a lack of role models as to how a happy loving household is supposed to be like. 

(And we actually learn a Lot from our parents/guardians. The statistic where every 1 in 3 victims become abusers is true not because victims think "I want to make xx's life as miserable as mine was", but because all the unhealthy coping behaviors become ingrained and we instinctively revert back to them when stressed.)

The point was that the both of them together have a set-up for a very stressful relationship on the basis that neither of them know anything but. They’re both considerably socially isolated, and neither of them have been exposed to healthy relationships, so it’s very likely that they would end up in unhealthy situations and think, “that’s what home is supposed to be like”. (This isn’t limited to them with each other - they could very well fall into such bad relationships with other people.)

Secondly, Karushuu is too confrontational and competitive of a ship that it borders on unhealthy. Yes, healthy competition does exist, but there's a lack of boundary setting between what should constitute healthy competitiveness with the two (refer to point one).

The idea that they continuously challenge each other so their relationship is interesting/they will never get bored Is a good one, but think about it: is that sort of competitiveness really what they both need? Isn't it exhausting to have to fight to come out on top at your workplace, only to go back home and start bickering with your spouse (even if it's about a math problem)?

Compromise and conceding is going to be something that comes very hard to both of them - especially Gakushuu, because he was only ever shown familial affection in the form of toxic competition, from ages approximately 5 to 15 (and beyond). Karma has the slightly better end of the stick with his 3-E friends and a year of character development, but remember that his idea of conflict diffusion is a fistfight with his best friend in a forest. 

Thirdly, sometimes it's just a lack of compatibility or diverging life paths. At the end of the canon time skip, Gakushuu migrates to America and Karma stays in Japan. They both have different goals in life and that's okay. They might actually have a nice and amicable, passion filled relationship in high school. It's short-lived and fun, where their competitions keep life interesting, and after that they drift apart because they just look towards different sides of the world.

Of course: none of these points are something that couldn’t be changed with time, effort, growth and commitment - which is what a relationship is all about, isn’t it? 

--

Where were we?

All that being said, I’m still a Karushuu shipper and I love them with my whole heart! I’m so excited for Karushuu week 2021, and you can follow my updates on my ao3 and tumbrl! (I promise to be better at updating my tumblr this time.).

(Also I figure I should explain myself lmao. I think that, with the exception of human rights and hate speech, interacting with opinions you disagree with is important. It’s not a good look for anyone to have bad blood over mundane things like shipping preferences, so we have to recognize that multiple interpretations of character(s) can and should exist. It shows you different perspectives you haven’t considered before and opens up cool discussion! Also, sometimes understanding counterpoints can help you formulate a better argument, or in this case, construct a more dynamic narrative. I hope I’m not sounding too preachy HAHA) 

[northern-passage]

Hello! The talks about rude anon made me remember that I sent an ask (a week ago I believe) to which you haven't answered yet and I hope that tumbrl simply eat it, but I'm afraid it may have been badly worded, something along the line of "I read everything you have written and now there is nothing else for me to read so thank you", that I'm afraid looked like I was complaining about the lack of content, and that wasn't at all what i meant! In case it come off as rude I'm really sorry.

ohhh noo!!! no worries i am just hoarding it 💖i didn’t take it bad at all!!! i tend to keep most of the nicer messages i get just because i like having them in my inbox and also i sometimes feel strange/self-conscious just posting lots of nice asks onto my blog

it’s really cool actually, ur message was sweet and i’ve said a few times before, it’s wild to me people like my content enough reread it a bunch of times 😭💕

hopefully you don’t mind me responding publicly but this goes for everyone that sends me nice asks, anon or not, if it doesn’t get published it’s just me keeping it in my inbox!!! also sometimes im just awkward and dont know what to say besides “thank you” which isnt very exciting mdnfkjsdf i do usually try to always respond to asks/messages that aren’t on anon but again sometimes i like just keeping them :-)

[god-of-my-own-universe]

So, for a while I've wanted to tell a story that happened with me, and i thought it would be cool if it became a tumbrl chain, so now I'll tell y'all my first love story, it's nothing special, but i thought that I'd like to share with you guys (probably just my mutuals will see this and actually care about it, but anyway).

I was at the 5th grade, and i started getting close to a classmate i had since the 2th grade. At first i thought she was cute, but after getting close to her, her appearance was the least important thing. She was smart, caring, sweet, and we had the same interests. Talking to her always made my day, specially because I've always had problems at home (my parents, they made, and still make, my life a living hell), so i would always get excited to go to class just to talk to her. She would also always pas Infront of my home to go to school, and i would always wait for her, just to say hi to her. I got close to her and all of her friends, and i would spend hours listening to her. She made my day a little more bearable, and she made me feel even more excited about my interests. She was one of the only people on my life to ever be kind to me (kids can be really cruel) and all of my days started to be all about spending time with her. I even started to get interested in the sports she liked (and i hate sports).

One day, we were playing tag, and i while we were playing, a bunch of older students passed running through us, and i was always the small invisible kid no one ever payed attention, so they ran through me, and stepped all over me. Like literally.i was literally trampled. I remember it hurts a lot, but it all stopped hurting when she came to make sure I was ok. At that point, no one ever cared about me, like no one at all, and having her to worry about how i was, made me feel important, i probably never felt that much important to no one ever again. With her, all pain was bearable. I say for a moment, and she helped me to get up and sit, and I'm pretty sure no one ever was so concerned if i was ok or not.

One day, she said that she had a boyfriend. And this broke my heart. Even tho she always made clear that we were just friends, the idea of never even getting the chance to be with her made me sad. But nonetheless, i continued her friend, and we were best friends for the rest of the year. As long as I was with her, the pain was bearable. But, at the end of the year, i asked her if she was going to stay at the morning or afternoon turn ( at my school we have two different turns), and she said she was going to the morning turn. I was going to say in the afternoon turn, and from there I knew i probably would never see her again ( we didn't have phones back then, and since i lived in a big city, and studied in a big school, she changing to the morning turn was basically the death of our friendship). We reminded friends until the last day of school. We said goodbye, and then I've never seen her again.

After that, i went through rough times on my school and family lifes. My parents started getting more aggressive towards me and themselves, i struggled to make new friends, but whenever i thought of her, i cried remembering the good times, and remembered how with her, all pain was bearable. Her kindness made everything bearable, even when she was distant, the memory of her kindness, changed my life.

Until the 9th grade, when i went to study in the morning turn. I saw her, at the hall. She was literally gray and looked said. I wanted to talk to her, to hug her, to comfort her, because she looked lifeless and sad, she clearly went through many things, like i also did. But i was too afraid to talk to her. "What if she doesn't remember you?". "What of she doesn't recognize you?". I was to afraid to to go talk to her. So i didn't. I watched her go with her routine, lifeless, and that sight, made everything worst, and everything became sadder from that day on. And it was like this, for a couple of weeks, until the pandemic started, but since then, I've never saw her, ever again.

I've gone through may things in my life, but her kindness made me stay believing in love, he kindness, made me persist on life, even in the darkest moments, where i could give up in everything, when i wished I was never born, the thought that once she cared about me, made me believe that there are good things in the world. When the pandemic is over, I'll talk to her, and this time, I won't be afraid, because with her, all pain was bearable.

All kindness you've shared, even if you don't remember it, has a long lasting impact with someones life, even the smallest act of kindness, means everything for someone. Even if you don't know, there's always someone who remembers you, because of the kindness you shared.

Reblog with the story of your first love, I'd love to hear it :)

This is a form of discriminating people too!

I sometimes don’t understand some people here on Tumbrl. When I recently joined here, I remember I thought it was such a cool place and the people were so nice and heartwarming. 

And don’t get me wrong, I still think this is a cool place to be and the majoriy of people is like this. But it’s a few blogs I’ve been seen that are run by discriminative people what have disturbed me and have made me feel a bit sad lately. 

Those who have written on their profiles “if you’re over 22 and you say hi I’ll block you”, “only reblog and like if you’re over 22″ or “do not interact if you’re over 22″, and the like. And yes, I don’t want to say who but there are people who have actually posted this in their blogs, word by word.

What I wonder in my mind is, why?

I mean, seriously why?! What is wrong with those people?!! Why discriminating and hatred on young adults who are over 22? 

And the most ironical thing about all this arrogant and hypocrite bussines, would you like to know what is it? Is the fact people who run these blogs, they go and say “this place is a friendly to everybody”, “this place is safe for trans and lgtbq+ because we do not discriminate” 

Well I have a few words for the owners of those blogs:

By claiming that people over 22 are not welcome on your blog and they should not interact with you or you’ll block them, you DO DISCRIMINATE  THEM! AND THAT IS NOT NICE AND NOT COOL.

And you’re doing to adult folks over 22 the same harm that society had done to African american people, or to woman, or to lgtbq+ people some time ago, for naming some examples.  And if you truly believe everybody is welcome on your blog and intend to lead by example a kind hearted behavior and the ideologies of non-discrimination. Then you should cut that out, and do not discriminate people over 22. Period.

Excuse me for talking about this, but right now I have not much places where I can post my art due harassement problems  I’ve had. And it breaks my heart and pisses me off to see how some people here are so hypocrital and discriminative. Claiming themselves being kindhearted because they accept lgtbq+ people, but they only do this to seem cool, and in reality they heart is rotten because they are plain rude and discriminative with people due their age!

Really tumbrl folks?, really? just because of how old a person is?! 

What kind of **** madness and absurdity is that???!!! Someone explain me! EXPLAIN ME!! Getting old it’s not a sin.

I had thought peeps of tumbrl were all cool...

I still want to believe in you though, so for the folks who have writen that on your blog, excuse me if the approach of this was a bit harsh, but I just wanted you to know how bad my heart felt regarding that matter. And I’d like you to take a time to reflect and think a bit about the harm you do to young adults with these actions.

And I have also a message for all my tumbrl folks in general:

My blog is  a welcome place for everybody! 

No matter their race, nationality, AGE, gender, sexual preferences, kinks,etc, everybody is welcome to interact with me, say hi and like and reblog stuff from my blog! And of course, my blog is A WELCOME SAFE PLACE FOR PEOPLE OVER 22 AS WELL!

And I only will block people in two cases:

1. if they are being rude, mean or discriminative towards a group of people, or someone from my blog or to me. 

2. If they come here posting rude comments to try to force others or me to believe in your personal ideologies, or mean coments to spread hate towards a fandom, franchise, ship, people, celebrities, things, my art, or to me. 

So yeah, no matter if you feel sexually attracted to robots or if you like to sleep with a diaper and roleplay that you’re a baby. As long as you do the same with me I’ll be nice with you and respect you and give you my friendship.

voilá!

[oxiosa]

This is the ask for you to endlessly rant about the capri AU in case you decide to. I’m dying for that au

LMAO THAT SETTLES THEN TUMBRL RANT IT IS

Ok so the universe is pretty much just a mush of the Cisplatine War (with some historical changes) + some Capri elements I kindly borrowed from Mrs. Pacat. So it is a bit of a mess between historical fiction and fantasy. I’ll start setting some of the fic foundations universe and history wise before I jump into current events, get comfy ‘cause this is gonna get LONG

Martín is the only Heir to the Argentinean Crown. He takes his role as prince quite seriously; he wants to make his father and his country proud. His people love him unconditionally, but it is more a star-struck sense of deep admiration. They see him high up on this unreachable golden pedestal like some sort of knight in a shiny armour with a choir of angels behind him.

Luciano is the Heir to the Brazilian Crown, but unlike Martín he is not an only child. He is the oldest male son, but he has siblings – I only have Angola as his far-more-competent older sister in mind at the moment, but I’m particularly interested in giving him younger siblings (lusofam stans hit askbox pls). Luciano is far more relaxed about his prince role, which makes him far more approachable than Martín. As expected, this makes him very popular among his people, who have a very dear fondness over their young kind handsome prince.

Sebastián is the son of the Duke of Uruguay, so no, he’s not Martín’s brother by blood but actually his cousin. They were raised together and have a very close bond, which is why they think of each other in terms of brothers. Sebas had a bit of rocky life; he spent most of his childhood with Martín, until Brazil occupied Uruguay and he and his family were taken as prisoners by the Empire. Since they were royalty, it was a privileged captivity, it’s not like they threw them into dungeons, they just weren’t allowed to leave the palace or contact Argentina. During those years, Sebastián met Luciano and they became close friends. Eventually Argentina reclaimed Uruguay and Sebastián and his family returned to Buenos Aires.

Daniel is there too, somewhere somehow. I’m not sure what his role would be, but he is Martín and Sebas’ cousin too. He is younger than Tincho and older than Sebas, but since his mother was the late King’s youngest sister, Sebas goes first in line of succession.

Francis is part of French aristocracy, so he’s just there hanging around, assisting parties and charming people, just living the life. He likes to mingle with Royalty of all sort, so he frequents both Argentina’s and Brazil’s courts and has known both Luciano and Martín since they were children. He likes to consider himself some sort of cool uncle to the Crown Princes.

Argentina is a monarchy I very dramatically called the United Provinces of the Kingdom of Argentina because a fancy mouthful of a name really suits us. However, they still have many elements of the structure of a democracy, so it’s less like the old days monarchies and more like a modern era one. Argentina is also a fairly new country, so their monarchy is only a couple of generations long, which makes them a little green to other royalty’s eyes. When Luciano calls them “a shitshow”, he is not entirely wrong, as Argentina is a very young nation with a court filled with people who can’t seem to agree on anything and like to scream at each other. Any resemblance to reality is purely coincidental :)

Brazil is a monarchy too, but it is waaaaaaay older than Argentina. It remounts many generations back, Luciano’s family has been in the throne for centuries. This allows Brazil’s royal family to have a sense of superiority over Argentina’s (as in “we already were kings while you all were a bunch of mongrels fighting each other trying to unify a country”), but it also makes them far more traditional and rigid. It is the old school take on monarchy in contrast with “progressive innovative” Argentina’s.

Slavery is legal in Brazil, and that includes sex slaves. In contrast, Argentina finds the concept of slaves abhorrent and instead prefers the “most civilized” approach of pets (courtesans of either sex who have contracts with wealthy masters/mistresses).

Brazil considers Argentina a pit of treacherous back-stabbing snakes, and Argentina considers Brazil an Empire of backward savages (a la Akielos vs Vere).

The Cisplatine War (Southern/Eastern Bank War in the fic) is also a little different. Argentina and Brazil have been disputing the dukedom of Uruguay for decades. As I already explained with Sebas, the war happened when Argentina marched in and reclaimed Uruguay from Brazil’s rule, which of course led to an armed conflict between the two kingdoms.

During this war, Martín and Luciano had barely turned 18, and Sebastián was 14. Both Martín and Luciano were allowed to participate in the war, both in meetings and in battle, but it was a tightly supervised participation. Both the King and the Emperor wanted to have their Heirs taste war without actually risking them, so they were sent out sporadically and heavily guarded, usually to smaller easier battles or just kept on the tamest combat zones.

The Sebastián incident was something that shook both countries to the core at a national scale, and that is because Argentina and Brazil have very different version of what occurred.

To the Argentinean public, Luciano was a dishonourable sadist who saw a defenceless child caught in the middle of a battle and stroked them down – and not just any child, but one of their princes nevertheless. Martín had to watch his brother fight death and struggle to recover. Luciano irrevocably ruined Sebas’ life, crippled an otherwise healthy boy.

To the Brazilian public, Sebastián’s presence in the battlefield was no mistake but a despicable Argentinean rouse. Why else was he wearing the Crown Prince’s armour? The Argentineans disguised a child like their Prince and sent him into battle in his sake hoping no one would notice, that’s the only conclusion. Sebas was Luciano’s dear friend, so you can imaginae Lu’s pure horror the moment he realised he stabbed his friend. In Luciano’s eyes, Martín was too much of a coward to fight his own battles and sent a child double instead.

At the end of the day, the truth everyone is too angry to hear from Sebas’ very lips is he just wanted to talk to Luciano, see if Lu could convince the Emperor to stop this senseless war. Sebas had tried convincing Martín to talk to his father for months, but Tincho wouldn’t listen, so Sebas slipped into Martin’s armour and rode out. He was caught in the middle of a Brazilian attack by accident, and found the end of Luciano’s sword.

Sebastián almost didn’t survive Luciano’s attack. The injury was really bad, rehabilitation was hard, and it took a heavy toll on his health; one of his legs is mostly useless (he has a slight limp he is very good at hiding and most people don’t know about), and never seemed to recover his physical strength and stamina, so his muscles are rather weak. He holds no grudges over Luciano, and wishes Martín didn’t either.

Hopefully that is enough world building and now I can finally start talking about the fic’s current events :’D

At the moment, Uruguay is part of Argentina, but Brazil has the perfect opportunity to attack and take it back now that the King and Prince of Argentina are gone.

Martín’s father died shortly after Tincho was taken captive. Sebas’ father would be the next in line, but since he died somewhere along the years between the War and current events, this would make Sebastián the new King if it wasn’t because he’s underage - still one year from 21.

The Emperor of Brazil is alive, but very sick. And by sick I mean he is being poisoned. Probably. I’m not sure yet. The Empress consort is alive though, and knows something is up; the Argentinean King’s sudden death, his Heir’s “disappearance” and her husband mysterious illness are extremely suspicious.

UK is the only behind the Argentinean coup. So far I don’t really have much motivation other than “Argentina and UK had a very bad relationship and it would be in the UK’s best interest if Argentina had a new King who hasn’t a prideful hot-headed member of the House of Hernández”. Still a wip as you see.

Remember I said Francis mingles with royalty of all sorts? Well, he has more info on everyone than he knows what to do with, so much dirt on everyone. He heard of the coup while he was back at the Brisith court, and tried to help Martín how he could. The original plan was to murder the Crown Prince as well, but Francis managed to slip in and orchestrate everything behind everyone’s back so Martín would end up as some nameless slave in Rio de Janeiro. Francis has no side really, he just wants the best for his two favourite “nephews”.

Luciano recognised Martín the moment he saw him. Not only did he recognised his face, but also his physical similarity with Sebastián confirmed his identity. The Empress noticed too, and forbid Lu from killing Tincho much to his chagrin. They will follow Francis plan and hide their enemy from the people trying to kill him until they figure what is going on and whom they can trust.

That doesn’t mean Luciano will play fair with his new “toy”. His mother said “no killing”, but she never said “make sure he is comfortable and happy and well cared for”.

Martín doesn’t get Damen’s flogging scars, but he does get something arguably worse (in the long run at least). The first order Luciano gives out concerning his new slave is that as Royal property, he needs to be branded. As painful as it is, it is quick and requires little recovering, but Martín now carries the Imperial Coat of arms seared into his skin and that humiliation burns deeper than flesh.

As the new Crown Prince, Sebastián eventually pays Luciano a visit with the pretext of peace talks to avoid a new war, but mostly because he has his own suspicions. He knows Martín and doesn’t buy that rumour that he run away, something must have happened to him. Luciano listens and doesn’t mention he currently has Martín collared and cuffed as his slave in his very palace. After all, his mother said not to tell anyone and maybe he likes Sebastián better in the throne.

Martín does try to reach Sebastián when he hears Argentina’s new heir is in Rio, but he doesn’t get as much as watch from afar, unable to reach him and let him know he is alive and right here.

I really don’t have much of the plot, but of course they’ll have to work together and learn to trust each other and eventually fall in love, and there would be a lot of tension and denial and eventual tenderness, we all know the drill uvu

I love your new banner and profile pic! Altho tbh I first thought your pfp was just a very pretty red and orange flower when I first glanced at it but when i clicked on it to see the flower better I realized it was actually a very bloody post-beating-someone-to-death James Flint :)) but that's cool too!!

Aaaaaaah thank you! I was very unsatisfied with how it was before so i decided to change it :)

Yeah i meant to do that, i think the contrast between the calming orange/pink background and the nice flowers with Flint bloody after having killed a guy with his bare hands is very funny actually lmao, and i really liked how the colours went together, i dunno i just think i needed a change, the blue i had before was really not it.

Thank you btw, and i don't know when you sent this but tumbrl didn't show it to me so i saw it only now when i went to answer another ask🥺❤❤

Hiii! So, like. I saw you ranting about Good Omens on Twitter and I enoyed reading it lol, so I was wondering what were your thoughts on the differences between Crowley and Aziraphale's personalities in the show vs the book?

(okay so, apparently just TOUCHING an ask to read it gets it actually posted? oh well. the tumbrl app sure is Something. sorry about that!)

first of all, thank you! i'm glad you liked my incoherent shouting on twitter, you might get more of that sooner or later because i'm in the middle of a Good Omens reread and, unsurprisingly, i have Opinions.

so, my thoughts. as you MAY HAVE GUESSED from aforementioned incoherent shouting, there are some things i liked about the show and a lot of things i... did not. i am staunchly in the 'The Book Was Better' camp, which i know is an unpopular opinion, given that even longtime fans of the book seem to generally love the adaptation. which is cool! lord knows if we don't deserve something nice to watch, and if someone liked the show or actually prefers how the show handled some things, good for them. i just really liked many aspect of the book that i feel the show mishandled, or changed, or directly cut out... so there.

with the disclaimer out of the way: i feel that, in general, show!Aziraphale&Crowley were somewhat oversimplified, like flattened versions of the original characters. part of it it's just the nature of adaptations - you can't have every detail of a third person pov narration in a tv show, you have to... well, adapt, choose what to keep and what to lose - but part of it isn't, and i just... i'm baffled, mostly.

the book establishes fairly early on that Crowley just likes people ("It was a major failing in a demon.") while the show is... not really consistent on that point. tv!Crowley likes human STUFF just fine, is shown a couple of times to be distressed about children (although then he turns around and suggests to straigh up murder an eleven years old, holy shit, that's why i say the show is inconsistent) but for the most part... doesn't look all that attached to humans per se? considering also that in the book, Crowley (along with Aziraphale) is ready to sacrifice himself in a suicide mission against Satan to save all the humans they put in danger with their "messing people around".

(the big finale in the show is a fucking mess so i'm not even gonna touch that.)

book!Crowley, under the general demonic tendencies and the attempts to be a proper flash bastard, is a gentle soul that resuscitates doves and didn't know about the Spanish Inquisition until he got a commendation for it, and then HAD TO GET DRUNK FOR A WEEK TO COPE. not just that, he knows that about himself (and is obviously embarrassed about it) while tv!Crowley seems to... be in denial? when Aziraphale says that he always knew that, deep down, Crowley was a nice person, tv!Crowley pins him to the wall shouting that no he's not YOU TAKE IT BACK, while in the book: "All right, all right," Crowley snapped. "Tell the whole blessed world, why don't you?"

he knows he's too nice, it's just not proper for a demon.

(btw i would have LOVED to see book!Crowley's flat in the show, because it’s another detail that cracks that stereotipical demon image: "spacious, white, elegantly furnished, and with that designer unlived-in look that only comes from not being lived in." the flat in the show is very... goth and dramatic, which is fine, but i think the white designer flat tells a lot about Crowley's persona. he doesn't want to look demonic, he wants to look like a cool human.)

tv!Aziraphale, on the other hand, is... well, soft. too soft. book!Aziraphale is a passive-aggressive, at times insufferable cryptobastard, a ruthless pragmatist-at-heart who makes the fucking mob disappear, accidentally posseses a tele-preacher and candidly tells his audience that Heaven doesn't care about righteous people and everyone is just gonna die in the Rapture (oh how i missed that scene) and decides BY HIMSELF that the Antichrist Must Be Killed.

furthermore, tv!Aziraphale is much more naive and trusting than his book counterpart. there's that gifset going 'round with that "the demon who still has faith and the angel who's losing his" (i'll link it when i see it again) that is perfectly on point for the show, but also highlights the differences between book and adaptation. the book doesn't really talk about faith (also, faith in Pratchett is A Whole Other Thing that i don't want to get into right now) and Aziraphale&Crowley's actions are not really a matter of faith or lack thereof. they just want to save the world because they LIKE IT (and free will is contagious). at the same time, both of them know perfectly well how their respective sides really are. i just can't stand tv!Aziraphale’s bubbly naive trust in Heaven when in the book you have bits like:

"My people are more than happy for it to happen, you know. It's what it's all about, you see. The great final test. Flaming swords, the Four Horsemen, seas of blood, the whole tedious business." [Aziraphale] shrugged.[this is at, like, PAGE 25]

"You'll be amazed at the kind of things they can do to you, down there," [Crowley] said."I imagine they're very similar to the sort of things they can do to one up there," said Aziraphale."Come off it. Your lot get ineffable mercy," said Crowley sourly."Yes? Did you ever visit Gomorrah?""Sure," said the demon. "There was this great little tavern where you could get these terrific fermented date-palm cocktails with nutmeg and crushed lemongrass-""I meant afterwards.""Oh."

the thing with the show, i think, is that they wanted to give more space to Aziraphale&Crowley (who are, admittedly, the most well-liked part of the book, so it makes sense) and in doing so pushed a bit in a corner the human cast. the problem is that, in the book, A&C are utterly useless and the humans are the ones who bring forth the plot and above all the fucking themes of the story - free will, responsibility, what it means to be human, etc - so what did they do? they had to make A&C's dynamic all about free will and (dis)obedience and what not, and to do so had to change the characters a bit.

and it kind of works, too, for the show. it's just that, for me, the book worked better.

This is gonna be a long rant

No need to say this but I am a CS, I strongly believe they were in love and actually believe they still are. If you don’t see it I’m sorry for you bc it means you’ve never been in love and seen someone staring at you like they do. 
Plus our captain Dinah (and her aunt) made it pretty clear. If you’re in doubt it could also be bc of the narrative stupid managers tried to pull, but honestly anyone can see through it. I suggest you read Emisons Camren theory and post about synchronization (which I found out after I made my mind clear ab Camren) which makes perfectly sense and was confirmed to be true at 98% by ExposingLaucy.

Let me say that of course this is just my opinion and I ALWAYS take into consideration that it could be not real. I respect L and C personal life and never dare to intrude or comment their post on social networks. I want them to be happy and if they are now (I believe they are) I am happy. They can be whom whoever THEY want.

Said so, here’s my delusional Camren theory. It’s not about proving Camren is real but an analysis of their relationship (I tried to be accurate, considering songs, interviews, trustworthy sources, timing).

I believe they had feelings for each other since the beginning (2012-3), especially C, but they genuinely thought they were just friends or that it was nothing serious (ExposingLaucy said C was the one to fell in love - “Mine is Lauren” “Who are u kissing under the mistletoe?” Her obsession with “Normani”- and L slowly fell in love w her). That’s why L gave birth to Camren “it’s Camren yo” (16 oct 2012) and why they were so explicit in the interviews, on camera, tumbrl, twitter, bc they thought it was a joke and were really close. Then ppl started to see what basically they couldn’t see or admit to themselves yet (love in their eyes), ppl started shipping them and assuming they were together but again they brushed it away and even invited us to float that f boat (Nov 2013). I believe if they ever kissed before 2014 it was as a joke, at least for L (“What happened in the elevator?” Feb 2013 DinahJane on twitter. #camrenfeels 28th June 2013 and the photo of them cuddling, L saying “Thanks babe” Feb 2014 and being totally chill with it) and above all they never talked about it.

I know C said back then that her first kiss was at 17 (and everyone assumed it was with Austin but could have been with L - April 2014) and then in a recent interview ab her album she said she was 16 when she had her first kiss so it could be 1) they kissed before 2) they kissed before but as a joke and then, after realizing how they felt for each other, she reconsider that kiss 3) she messed up with her memory, she gets confused by all the bs they made her say during these years. In the same interview she said she had her first breakup at 17, which could be her telling bs and alluding at her breakup with Austin (even tho in other interviews she dismissed that relationship) or what I’ll explain later about her relationship with L.

I think C was the first to realize she had feelings for L and that’s when she wrote “Only told the moon” (where she’s scared ab her emotions and afraid the other person won’t feel the same way) even though she wrote a tweet “only told the moon” in Jun 2015. What we know through EL is that they were both each other’s first kiss and everything. [plus I’m still not over Sep 2013 when C cries singing Who are you and L glances at her every other second].

We assumed Camren real first kiss was in April 2014 (1975 concert) and it is rumored that L broke up w Brad in Dec 2014 after 8 moths. Now, I don’t believe they had an actual relationship but more a fling and not that long (L was supposed to be w Luis Felipe right? They broke up Aug 2014. And in July we have the suspicious Camren’s moans in the bunk). ANYWAY the import part is that Brad wrote I found a girl that goes "she said that she tried but she's not into guys". So now what I think is that that's basically L freaking out about the kiss she had with C because she realized she had feelings for her (so more than friendship), trying to convince herself she's not into girls, rushing into Luis and then B to prove herself wrong, then again going back to C still confused until she figures it out later. Especially when you are bisexual the process can be hard because you try to understand where you stand, if you like boys OR girls, so it’s confusing when you have feelings for both and u try to deny one or the other until you realize bisexual is A THING. The Vamps made it clear that the song is for L and then took a photo with a “Camren is real” sign in the back (well done Brad, you’re an asshole). In the song he also said that this girl started to talk to him about the other girl she was involved with, so he knew who L was in love with.

In 2014 C is in a PR relationship with Austin Moron and I think C wrote The Exchange song (unreleased as well) about that period. I came up with the timing according to a period when they were both dating others; after Chocolate by 1975 was out - we’re dressed in black, head to toe, it’s from that song while C wrote “we’ll be dressed in, all black from head to toe” and twitted it in apr 2015; also C’s tweets with the lyrics of the song - “there’s nothing like me and you and you know it” Apr 2014 -  and L indirects. I think it’s ab Lauren also bc she wrote “there’s beats I’ve been skipping when my head is on your chest” and I‘ve never seen C doing that with a boy. Plus the part where she says the other person knows there’s nothing like the two of them and “you’ve been trying to say it ain’t true” so again L rushing into L/B.

Also you can tell that their relationship was never defined properly by the fact that C many times during interviews referred to a relationship she had and described it as “sort of friendship “ or “romantic relationship or whatever that was”( also look for unreleased song of C, she said she wrote it when she was 17, “Like friends do” = I’ll sit straight it the couch like friends so. And I’ll stop kissing your mouth like friends do. Cause I can’t look at you quite like friens do. You don’t say my name quite like friends do).

I think after Brad and A, they were together, during 2015 (that’s when C appeared with the ring - EL said L gave it to C in Feb 2015 - and when they try to hide and look distant in front of the camera, yet close behind cameras) but still in a confused way during all that year, with ups and downs. I’d say C was pretty cool with her sexuality while L had more difficulties; and that explains to me why C cries singing Who are you basically every time (remember the girls co-worked in writing this one, if you look up on google you can see how Camila and Lauren’s names are the first ones written). Also that’s when she could have come up with IHQ bc she said she started writing it two years before it was released (May 2017). “My name was safest in your mouth”, “your voice, it was the most familiar sound” “i was there when no one was” and in the end - this part could have been written back then or in 2017 but either way express a miscommunication- “How do I fix it? Can we talk? Can we communicate” and “Do I wanna fix it? Is it my fault? Do u miss me?”.

I think that Lauren was the one that struggled the most (from the beginning 2013), she also said in an interview (2017) that when she was little was very confused and that people calling her bisexual/gay made her angry because she couldn’t understand how they figured it out and what was about her that made them think that. It’s also tricky was she said just after that. The interviewer asked her “Did your parents know before you came out?” ab your sexuality and she said “yes, they knew before, I was dating a girl AT THE TIME so they had to know”. So ok, who was she dating tho? Lucy? Yeah right.

I think that they had a shit load of pressure from managers to not be together and at least behave in front of the camera. I remember L (think it was Sept 2015) in an interview she said “when life hits love sometimes you just die”, i mean that’s daaark, girl! Anyways, that must have led to a lot of fights between the two of them especially because you can see how in a lot of interviews C kept staring L or doing things that were pointing obviously to Camren while L was trying harder to hide it. I think C might have felt rejected and they didn’t talk about all of this (and you can tell again by their songs that they had relationship where they didn’t comunicate - expectation, something’s gotta give, in the dark, IHQ.. someone put also In your phone but L didn’t write that one).

I think that’s when C wrote Must be love, this songs screams Camren like maybe no other and describes this period. In fact she says she fell hard, that she gets mad and puts on a show, there are highs and lows, everything gets real after two am (secret relationship), that she’s gonna look at her right back and “I promise you won’t like that” (L pissed every time C is explicit) and they fuss and fight but yet she wouldn’t have it any other way.

Also it’s a link to Consequences, which is in the album (in Must be love she goes “I guess everything has consequence”) and this song has no straight-relationship explanation. Through Consequences C describes her relationship w L and what had caused. I believe she is telling us all that she loved L so much she didn’t care about the consequences that came with it, which is f managers treating them like shit, make them hide it and led to them fight as well. It is not coincidence that she wrote this in Jan 2017 after she was out the group. It is not a coincidence that in concert before playing Consequences she always sings Falling in love (“Wise men say only fools rush in” is also the beginning of Must be love). And there are links to “She loves control” in my opinion which I think describes L and maybe the role she played in all this Camren shit. (Ok C has stated that she has OCD but she doesn’t go to club and when she’s in love she fell hard so u know, so much for the control). In Must be love says “you control me more than you’ve ever known” and in Sangria Wine “yo so que tu quieres controlar mi mente” that made me think the person she’s talking ab in She loves control might not be herself but another person. Many were shook about L singing “she doesn’t let me have control anymore” in Strangers which is a HELL of a coincidence but I think Halsey wrote it so I’m not sure whether we should consider it or not.

During 2015 to 2016 we saw a lot of things that suggested the ups and down. Remember that 2015 C had major anxiety problems and a lot of trash was thrown from the fandom (especially after IKWYDLS). C saying she rather date someone out of the industry but “you can’t decide who you fall in love with, UNFORTUNATELY”. Or when they fought in another interview when C was being too obvious bc she said she would marry her celebrity crush (or any crush) even if their parents did not approve, tho she didn’t say who her crush was but “it’s important” and “i’d be in love with my celebrity crush” (she always said it was Lauren). Or when they tried to make each other jealous.

Then 2016 is tricky. They started the 7/27 tour and again we see ups and downs but mostly L more at ease with her feelings for C. I think C was still struggling with her anxiety problems and all the narrative the managers were forcing the 5 of them to follow (they were prep C’s departure). I remember how L broke down 8 Sep 2016 singing No way, she always said that it was her fav song and described it as a dialogue happening in a couple; a toxic situation, two people who wants to be together but know shouldn’t be together and also ppl from the outside telling them they shouldn’t be together (she was so into this song that during a soundcheck she said she actually could imagine a visual and music video for it). She also cried during Scared to be happy and then tweeted after the concert the she got emotional because of the LYRICS. This was in Phoenix after the show in Texas where we saw Lucy. So that made me think she was struggling back then (remember that 4 days before, C left the stage in Missouri for anxiety), trying to figure out what to do between what she felt and also the pressure for the outside (maybe C, sure as hell managers and the PR ready to come).

I think that L in 2016 realized that she wanted to commit, as I said she seemed more at ease with her sexuality. She was happy during photos with CS, she danced with the pride flag, we have the blurry kiss in London (May 2016) in front of Lucy (!!), L even interacted with C during sound-checks and sang Dope to C (who was pretty surprised), she protected her from those balloons, C and L staying one more day in Barcelona, we had the VMAs (August 2016), she called her baby and so on. She seemed very protective. I believe that’s bc they were prepping the Laucy thing and her coming out. EL said they began the process leading to Laucy in June 2016 (remember the two of them in Colombia for L’s birthday, the videos of L dancing BBW to Lucy and so on - Emisonme explained perfectly).

I think that is why she came out in the end, after all this struggles, bc she felt ready, I don’t think she was forced to. Let’s be honest, if she didn’t want to she could have said it wasn’t her in the Laucy photo or she’s not so dumb, you’re at a family wedding and you get caught kissing a girl and the photo got leaked?! I say BS. And then she decided to make a photo book with Lucy as a coming out statement?! If she wasn’t ready to do it, none of this would have happened. I think she did it for two reasons: 1) Trump was pissing her off 2) to tell C that she was ready; they let her do it bc it was convenient for her image and 5h.  At the beginning of Havana - the music video - there’s an awkward scene, completely out of context. A guy comes out of a closet and says “I was in the closet” and C “so now, you’re out of the closet?” And he goes, a bit confused, “yes, for YOU”. Like wtf? C, was it necessary?! And don’t let me start with that video. C is watching the tv and you can here a woman saying in spanish “I want to be with Carmen but I can’t “, you can see a figure very similar to L and in the end C said “I love you, but I love myself more” which again made me think she’s the one that walked away in the end. Camila is giving us so many signs if u don’t see this you’re really dumb.

L obviously couldn’t come out without saying there was another girl, otherwise Camren was automatically confirmed in our mind. And who better than your best friend to help you do so and make it believable? Honestly it was a smart move and all the hate, slut shaming and shit Lucy received, she didn’t deserved it. I believe it was PR and that C was aware of this and supported it but it could have also been difficult for her. Even though she knew it wasn’t real, she might have been scared L might get involved for real, especially if you consider the fact that Camren could never be proud and loud, idk. Emisonme on tumbrl explained the Laucy shit so perfectly that I suggest u read it, I agree with everything she said. Again Emisonme explain PERFECTLY why L could come out as bi while C can’t (and she’s so gay she’s shitting rainbows).

I think shit went down tho, and they fell apart. I don’t know if it was bc of management’s pressure or miscommunication or whatever but apparently C walked away (as she said in many interviews that the situation was toxic - not the relationship - in something’s gotta give and Havana music video and in concert before singing Scar Tissue). I think that their break-up happened during that period of L coming out and C leaving/kicked out fifth harmony but that is so messed up I’m not elaborating [Theory: C leaving 5h was always supposed to happen]. Just remember how Dinah’s aunt said that Lauren would be devastated by the fact C left (”I’m pretty sure Lauren is heartbroken and shook, she is probably crying her brain away. But she already knew. If anything Lauren is leaving too. You gotta have your girl’s back. Of course I’m sure they are going to do a duet like on their own, you know, in the bedroom.”)

That’s when L was reaaally pissed at Camren fans (the tweet in Feb 2017), went a bit sassy in interviews avoiding to talk about C, and after “leaving Lucy” she “started dating Ty” (I call PR huge af). The reasons why she was pissed ab CS could be many, for starters I believe they broke up (so that’s one), n2 she came out and faked a relationship with another girl to protect C’s straight image and yet everyone kept believing in Camren, n3 her managers made her pull her straight image as well starting dating Ty to shut us up BUT I believe the real reason is n4 managers wanted to kill Camren (to launch C’s straight image) and destroy her image (as they did with the marijuana shit they pulled) bc even though i think the first three reasons are true and that’s what was going on in L’s mind I don’t think she would attack her fans and C like that. Anyways L tweeted “eyes on the moon” the day the Grammys (Feb 2017) were held and we know who the moon is.

I think C’s the one who walked away also bc of “Make u mad”, which was written mostly by L and she’s pissed y’all. There are also links btw this song and C’s songs. L also sang Back to me, she collaborated in writing the text but I don’t know to what extent but still a HELL of a coincidence.

I think they first met after all this shit at the Grammy’s after party in Feb 2017 but didn’t interact. Camila was there and she said that “In the dark” is about a boy she met there; then we have L who tweeted just the day after the Grammy’s after party ab waking up with hang over and understanding what’s fake and real. Funfact: read the lyrics of In the dark. “Vampires at the same places” we know Lauren is Lamp. L is running and “making rounds with your fake friends” and again “i can see u’re scared of your emotions, i can see you’re hoping you’re not hopeless” “who are u when it’s 3am and u are all alone” “secrets, endless”. Basically she’s asking this person to show her her real self.

Ppl said they met in March/April 2017 (i think) in studio (Diplo’s?) and I think that’s when C came up with All these years (L had longer hair - she had it cut in 2016; she had gained a bit of weight - that’s for arms stronger; her eyes, I mean WE BEEN KNEW; C was not prepared so she didn’t know L was going to be there; it was a quick hello bc they were not fine back then; “sounds like you’re happy with her” could be L’s PR; “wish I loved u like I miss u” implies that she had a relationship with that person but maybe not loved her in the right way or enough to make it last - she confirmed in an interview that this song is about an ex; who does C knows from YEARS? If I hear another SM shipper I’ll throw up)

Anyways I think that towards the mid of 2017 they kinda reconnected and now they’re in good terms. Remember how C said multiple times how even though it was a toxic situation she’d do it all over again. So that makes me think that they loved each other and the problem was mostly all the environment they were into (if the relationship was trash why on earth would she do it again?!) and C is trying to say to L: baby come back to me.

Since this is not a post w the intent of explaining why Camren is real I won’t elaborate.

In conclusion I think they are still in love (C sang it in every possible way) and probably a couple or working on to be one and the problems in their relationship were due to miscommunication and pressure from the outside.

—> Again Emisonme made super clear why they couldn’t be together in the Music business. 

Stay strong in this PR shit and let them be. Even if they don’t tell us, doesn’t mean it isn’t true. 

Just remember EL said 2018 would be the year of the commitment, 20gayteen everybody.

“I am a lover and a fighter. I will fight for what I love” Go get your girl Lauren

(1\2) I am sorry in advance for my english but I may have a cause for the poll problem and I feel like SUPER GUILTY ABOUT IT. I have a kpop "fangirl" group and we are like 90 , we are super friends and most of us knows each other and we are almost all girls really there are only 3 nb people and 4 guys, few months ago (like 2) I discovered the cog site and i started buying games but soon I started following the wips too, and yours was one of my favorites so I shared the link on my group and

a lot of people (not all of them) liked the idea of interactive fiction with choices, almost all of them were interested in Day and some in Koda, Zenos and Dani. But Tumbrl is not very popular here so we started talking about the game there along with kpop. So today I shared the strawpoll link on the group to tell the girls that you were considering making a one shot, my mistake was sharing directly the link and straw poll is a very easy site, so I think everyone just selected “Female”

(3\3) So rry I’ll finish here, I feel really ashamed for this and I beg you sorry, I can understand if you erase the poll, I will not share anything directly again with them, I am sorry again , I hope you’ll have a good day\night

First of all, I want to say thank you for coming forward about this

I’m actually really glad to receive this message so now I have an idea of what’s going on. You made an honest mistake and I can tell your intention wasn’t malicious, so don’t worry about it. Thanks for telling me and I do appreciate your enthusiasm about this story even if it led to this situation! lol I think it’s really cool to know people were sharing my little wip with their friends and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what you did.

Having said that, I’m still not going to consider the previous polls results as I still can’t guarantee there wasn’t any funny business even outside of your story, but I might have worked something out that everyone can be happy with, so no worries.
