talked w/ a friend about this and wanted to post something similar yesterday after a convo i saw also
about people criticizing ttcc / ttcc fans for just... being cog fans? being cog centric? usually coming from people who only like the toons.
and everyone likes what they like! it's okay! but saying that people who like the cogs are horrible and support the bad things they do, is just blatantly wrong. i thought we knew that enjoying villainous and morally Bad / grey characters is... okay? it doesn't mean you support what they do. it's interesting to explore these topics.
i've seen many people just... paint anyone who likes the cogs as horrible because they're "apologists of x and y" and... i dunno. rubs me the wrong way! you do have a point and recognize the cogs do bad things, but liking them as characters means nothing about who you are as a person.
and this is not to say that people who are in toontown for the toons are bad. hell! they are right this IS toontown. i may be on the cog liker side but i like the toons! maybe ocs more than the npcs - mostly because i like my friends and the sheer creativity the toons can bring out!!
SO what i wanna say... i dunno. let's not point fingers...? let's have fun in a goofy cartoon game together??? also complaining about people liking VILLAIN ROBOTS on TUMBLR is kind of funny to me. do you realize where you are. but then again a lot of this i see on discord and in-game as well since i avoid things on tumblr... i am a sensitive little fella i avoid misty fight bc of One Really mean "Critic" guy i saw there and i have been shivering in my bootsies since. so you get me
but like yes ttcc is more cog centric but... that's okay? things could be written better and i still wanna speak on it, and i do thing the toons deserve attention and better writing... but the fact it focuses on the cogs isn't... bad? if you don't like how con centric it is you can go play ttr...? god forbid people have fun and explore the villain's side of things...? i'm not saying either toontown server is better or worse than the other... and everyone can like their own things!!
but like... people will just like the cogs and that's okay and it doesn't make you bad. let's all be friends okay? both sides may be going at each other's necks in-game and the cogs in fact do horrible things - but it's what makes them fun, and it gives the toons things to do in the game!! but we don't gotta !!!!!!!! i may be really sarcastic and sometimes mean in private but like that's me just privately sassing, deep down i think people should just... y'know..? enjoy things.
so yea that's the guzma / cathal thought of today. toon people cog people both people are all awesome as fuck and you keep doing what you're doing i love you toontown isn't toontown without you

another one, but this one's a softy one and angsty 😚😚
imagine yeonjun being that one violin player in a musical band, but is least known unlike most of those who are in the group as he is a hidden gem or something that can be compared to a music playing in the background like a back track. it's not that he was desperate for recognition, but he just thought that it seems unfair in his part that he creates the beautiful music pieces of their band yet someone elses go out of their way to take credit, them receiving everybody's recognition. all, except you who always had an eye for the violinist of the band.
yeonjun was used to being alone, walking off to who knows where while the others is being crowded with people praising and cheering them, but the moment you stopped him midway, he instantly fell in love with you. especially at the way you glowed when you smiled at him right at the time when he felt so lonely.
yeonjun was happy seeing you support him and it was all he needed to feel satisfied, happiness brewing in the pit of his stomach, as his smiles started to become a usual event and it was that smile alone that brought him to his growing fame. you would have been happy, you really would, hadn't for yeonjun completely forgetting all about you, but you constantly showered him with praises although he started getting colder.
[you finish the story i wanna know what you have.]
it doesn't take long for you to notice the gradual yet consistent change in his attitude. at first, you've only thought of it as stress and exhaustion from yeonjun's side, being an artist is not easy especially if you're making your way towards success, however, as time went on, you have come to realize that this is something more serious than that.
he started leaving you on read more often, ignore your phone calls and would sometimes straight up walk past you like you're invisible. he began drifting away from you, but despite that, you still persisted to provide him the support and praises that he deserves, hoping that someday, yeonjun would come back to his senses and talk to you again regularly like he did before.
you promised yourself and yeonjun that you won't ever get tired of being by his side through ups and downs, but you were wrong. you grew exhausted from all the coldness of the winter nights of his disdain over you, it feels so different now. you have no idea what you did wrong for him to treat you like that. did you perhaps said something offensive to him? hurt his feelings or did something that he might've not like? you weren't sure. the old sunshine you've known of has turned into a thorned and cold midnight rain that slowly drowns you. yeonjun has completely succumbed to the harmful outturn of his growing fame.
hurt by everything, you have decided that it's finally time to let yeonjun go despite how it pains you to do that. you have driven yeonjun to his destination of finally becoming the successful musician that he's always dreamed of. the disappearance of a peasant like you won't do anything good or bad for him anyway, everything will just become indifferent, so you've decided to lay low and find your life from things other than yeonjun.
yeonjun, on the other hand, was living his best life. with everything that he's had with this fame and success, he felt like he had it all, he didn't notice the most important friendship that held and molded him together was falling apart...
you'd still come back to him even if he ignores you... right?
it was only then where yeonjun realized that he's lost you when he saw his number blocked from your phone along with a lengthy message that you sent him a few weeks ago. he felt his heart shatter as he reads your last message. it was just supposed to be a normal day, he was supposed to invite you to a dinner with his band to introduce you to everyone as the one who made it all possible for them. tears brimmed his eyes as he came into the realization of your friendship's fallout.
has he really been ignoring you that bad for you to let go of everything?
: junnie ^^ are you free this Saturday? i wanna tell you something :) it's a surprise though
*read at 1:58 PM*
why didn't you say anything?
: i've been trying to get your attention for the past week but it seems like you have other plans...
*read at 11:54 PM*
how could he be such and asshole to a sunshine like you? you were just doing your job as a friend... how could he neglect the person responsible for his success?
he couldn't stop the tears from flowing down his cheeks as he reminisced your memories together. all the laughs, jokes, secrets and quite intimate moment with each other, it's all gone due to his stupidity.
he's just hoping that he'd still be able to fix everything and confess what he truly felt for you.
his phone rang...
"BREAKING: NCT's Mark caught on a dating scandal with classical musician Lee Y/N; SM Entertainment confirms"
he's still hoping...

not to be a broken record bc the same 5 things that have effected me my entire life remain true but damn, i’m really like. not good at going to new places...like it’s kinda of an issue how bad I am at this. i’ve been in taiwan for this long and still haven’t seen very much at all.but honestly, i felt like I’ve probably seen as much of Taiwan (which I mean really just Taipei and the new taipei area) as I’ve seen of Los Angeles and I’ve lived there my whole life. so like. i know I’m just not really used to going places and exploring but I’ve always wanted to, and still, never really did... and I always give excuses like the weather or i’m tired but yea damn. I really never go anywhere or get to know the places i’m in. I never make any marks or connections and man,,,, i really have always lived like this -- be it bc of my family or our social standing or whatever but damn... i wish I could just do a little more but I really never do.I hope I can change that but will i, who knows.
