#two of them are temporary!

Sometimes you have to kill your darlings

And sometimes you have to kill your darlings.

Am I telling you which fic? No I am not. Is it a main character? Yes.

Is it permanent... well. I'll tag about it when that chapter is released.

i also did the movie list... mostly to check if it let me put norwegian or czech movies on there (it did!). it's only 80 movies because i felt it most important to stay true to myself and for the last 20 i was scrolling lists of movies to remember what even existed. anyway

how did everyone react when they announced they'd bought a house? i was in the phandom but i wasn't really active in fandom spaces

much like them being gay it was something they had very clearly been breadcrumbing for years and most of us were already convinced it was happening from context clues but still when they actually said it out loud everyone has a full surprise pikachu meltdown

i will say the fact that they had custom built their dream house was the thing that hit even harder because what do you meaaannn every single detail was discussed by the two of them because it's the real forever home like!!!!! that's insane

thank you for the enthusiasm for the human tugs on the last post! have more of them, and a bit of insight into the things they enjoy :]

I know some people are upset with the route they've gone for this season of SR, I'm personally fine with it, like they've said they did rush into the campaign and didn't get to establish world building much, and like Mace said during the break, the story is about the Stardust Rhapsody, which is the ship itself, characters come and go much like the ship and small crew they've taken inspiration from.

I think the only complaint I may have is having a character that doesn't speak common, it does make for funny situations where Derek gets to improvise his response, but having him not able to have significant conversations with anyone else? That's part of the heart of these campaigns, building the relationships between characters, so having him be essentially silent to everyone else is going to affect that :/

A game just like Sims but dark and gloomy would be extremely good... Something like living in a town run by a cult or demons and just trying to live a normal life... Or we could choose to get involved or save the town or make it better or destroy it entirely...

DRAGONS RISING SEASON 2 PART 1 SPOILERS AHEAD.

Also, quick TW: Choking, Death.

This is a little silly fic that I'll be posting to AO3 later probably ;3

(KAIS FEAR SCENE IN THE CAVE REAL OMG???!?!?!?!?!? Character study :3)

Kai stared ahead, determined to reach the end of the cave- he needed to, after all. The flame in his hand flickered, faltering before extinguishing itself into small puffs of ash.

The Fire Master turned his attention to his hand, snapping it a few times in a fruitless attempt to get the flame back. He groaned when it didn't work, turning around to the others and-

...Where were they?

Kai squinted, seeing nothing but a cloud of darkness. He took a step forward, worry squeezing his heart tightly. He didn't need to worry, not yet- but how could he not? A few months would never be enough to meld that torn piece of him back together, that piece of him that wondered if he'd simply finally given to insanity, seeing nothing but hallucinations.

He shook his head quickly, not letting his thoughts drag him under. This moment was real, he was certain- and he was certain his family was not within his sight.

"Lloyd?" Kai called into the darkness, voice steady despite the worry dripping from him in borderline solar flares. He frowned at the lack of response, moving his flameless hands to cup his mouth. "Nya! Lloyd!"

Again, no response.

The worry was practically tearing him apart inside out now- something he would likely never admit. Kai walked further back into the cave, attempting to locate the others. If he was mildly frantic about it, no he wasn't.

Kai came to a halt at the sound of what could almost be called a scream.

One that he was far too familiar with.

Kai whipped around, already falling into a defensive stance as he watched Lloyd run to him, tears streaming down his face. The Fire Master didn't comprehend how young he looked in that moment, as if he were a confused and scared 11-year-old again.

It didn't matter how he looked, not at all- and it never would. It was Lloyd. His brother. Someone he swore he would always protect. Pulling Lloyd closer to him before adjusting his stance to be semi-in front of the younger came almost as second nature.

Kai watched closely as something slunk out of the darkness, towering over him. The thing smirked, a hand coming out from behind it.

The thing held Nya by the neck, she flailed around for a moment, trying to pry the thing away from her neck so she could, most likely, breathe.

The Fire Masters eyes widened, stance faltering for just a moment before his expression hardened. Sparks filtered from his fists.

"Let her go."

The thing sneered at Kai, its devoid face crinkling into something akin to disgust before tightening its grip. Nya squirmed for a moment before beginning to wheeze, her attempts to pry the things hand from her neck growing weaker and weaker.

Kai stared, pulse buzzing violently under his skin.

His blocked flames bristled, a blazing inferno deep in his core.

And he lunged.

He lunged for the thing, anger in every grab and tear at the monster.

Rip.

Tear.

Rip.

Tear.

"LET HER GO!" He screamed, eyes burning as his attacks grew more and more helpless.

The thing snickered despite its current state, amusement in its unforgiving eyes.

Kais' anger only grew, the inferno raging until it obscured any rational thought he could've had. Unshed tears clogged his eyes, limbs trembling as he tried to withhold himself from killing the thing. A mercy it didn't deserve.

And then he was on the other end of the cave, gasping in gulps of air, dizzy, with an unbreathing sister beside him. His inferno sizzled out, water dimming it to a few half-hearted sparks. The shaking of his limbs increased tenfold, his tears finally boiling over and burning his cheeks.

"KAI!" Lloyd- oh, oh FSM wasn't he protecting him-

Kai threw himself onto his feet, looking a complete mess as he watched in what felt almost like slow motion as The Thing dragged his younger brother further into the darkness, a snicker echoing the cave before something zapped him.

Kais' mind had to do a double take on that last thing, actually. He was staring at the stone floor of the cave, shaking mildly- but there were no tears in his eyes, as if they'd been boiled away.

He was zapped.

Zapped?

Was Jay nearby? Oh, FSM. How would he ever explain all this- he couldn't handle The Lightning Ninja right now-

No, no. It would be a good thing if he was there now, wouldn't it?

Kai was pulled to his senses by the sound of the others talking. The others. Lloyd and Nya. His family. His siblings.

He inhaled shakily, trying to wipe what must have been a horrified expression off of his face, then stood up.

They were alive.

I’m picking up way more Norwegian than i expected watching Skam. I fully expected that I’d watch the entire series once through understanding practically nothing of the audio and then in subsequent rewatches after having really picked up my studies (I’m at zero studies rn) start picking up words and phrases.

I’ve already got the days of the week, quite a few personal pronouns, several variations of hello and goodbye, some numbers, variations of yes and no, please and thank you, sorry, and a few short phrases (it’s all right, are you ok. Are you sure- that kind of thing) that I can understand while having looked away from the screen and missed the subtitle, and I’m only in episode 7.

i feel like if i got my hands on an upper of some kind, things would be improved because i'd be able to get things done. at the same time i do have downers actually prescribed. trouble is, if you take a small enough dose to keep yourself actually functional in any way, it just means you feel less stressed but also less... everything. like the stress is still there because it isn't physiological stress, it's knowing you've not done everything stress. but if i took a dose that would actually help, a) i'd run out (i only have the one script) and b) take all week to recover from it. so there is no good answer, because if i'm gonna take a downer, it's gonna be enough to actually help, i.e. enough to make me crash out. unfortunately 'actually help' is synonymous with 'loss of consciousness', because being conscious is hell, you know?

You’re not alone. A good conabuser will take you where you are, and bring you where they want to take you. Even if you think you cant take it, they can build up your tolerance. Mine has been fixing me and barely abusive for like 2 years.

And have you met another transharmed person? I hope for your sake can try one out and be transharmful to them. That they can hold you by the hand and work you through your insecurities. As a transharmed person its taken years to build up to it, but it feels amazing to look up at someone who is transharmful and tell them “i see the you that is harmful, and i love you for that”. You shouldn’t feel scared once you get close enough to a conabuse victim. Abuse is like medicine to us, and we want you to treat us.

mmh i think our problem really is that we dont tend to really enjoy being on the abused end in any capacity enough for us to justify ever referring to ourselves as transharmed and saying we want it because we really dont i think or at least from how weve experienced things,so maybe you are right because weve never quite had a good experience with it that hasnt gone sour and left us off worse

we habe, and have gotten very very close and personal with them a few times as well (and very, very recently to add, and neither time had gone well..) we actually have been the transharmful one (for the most part, at least) in these situatjons , the one doing the abusing, or at least having been encouraged/told to do it..but we never really could, because we just felt too horrible doing it, even when they had brought it to us as a request first, we just felt too awful hurting them because we only ever wanted what was best for them and despite everything they say, wveryrging weve been told and everything weve seen of other transharmeds, we just cant bring ourselves to see inflicting pain like that on the people we love as a good thing at all..

weve , had to be "pushed" into actually being hurtful , for lack of a better word, either by pushing our limits and boundaries until we snapped nd freaked out on them (and properly checking in and trying to fix thingd+give aftercare as soon as we were calmed back down) or just by like "coercion"..? not, quite coercion but its the best word i can think of, because again we are so terribly hesitant to ever do those things willingly that it takes a LOT to really get it out of us..

little update on that comic redraw with Gaggy & Baby Doll + some little chatter by me:

I still have a ways to go with this redraw, but it's coming along! slowly but surely! I will tackle this little by little

I am NOT gonna enjoy drawing boxes tho. I dread that.

Changing the overall context of the original to better fit my redesigns and to make some extra sense with the removal of the other 3 characters in the original. Lol Mary's just getting some bakery snacks for a little "party" and runs into Gaggy who was just casually sulking along.

Meet-Cute via smashing a door into the other's face L O L

They're not at all surprised by each other's appearances. This is Gotham City. You get used to the weird stuff real fast, it becomes highly expected and very normal real quick.
