[seaglass-and-string]

technically an intro but more of a ramble ngl

hiiiii . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁

a little about me bc why not:

i’m evelyn/evie | minor | she/they | hopeless romantic | bookworm but a slow reader | pisces | massive introvert so this is my attempt to put myself out there a bit | pan/ace

interests:

reading | greek mythology | listening to music | starting hobbies but never finishing them | feeling aesthetic | sleeping | coffee | writing | overanalysing | my main fandom is the marauders (reggie/remus kinnie) | sitcom girly

books i love:

song of achilles / circe | the secret history | anything by john green | anything by alice oseman | little women | rebecca / frenchman’s creek | a good girls guide to murder | the lottery by shirley jackson | pride and prejudice | pjo | recommendations always welcome!!

my main music loves:

taylor swift | conan gray | olivia rodrigo | friday pilots club | marina and the diamonds | artic monkeys | queen | david bowie | stray kids

my plans for the blog: (realistically i won’t be very good at keeping up with this but here we are, ill try my best)

☆ this is actually my second blog (not a side blog, just under a different account, my other is @good-oldfashioned-lover-girl) and so it will probably be less active, but my irl friend’s following my other one and i wanted a space to be myself more so im gonna try and post more og stuff as opposed to just reblogging ☆ for example, im trying to improve my descriptive writing so i might post some of that? ☆ i also rly want to try and get into drawing so i might post some of that if i get round to it, but warning i haven’t rly drawn since i was like 5 soooo ☆ but, despite saying that, i’ve always wanted to draw this comic which ive been daydreaming for like 3 years now, but never have bc of my lack of drawing ability… so i was thinking fuck it stick figure supremacy imma just do it anyway ☆ i was also thinking, i rly want to make friends as well as having a positive space so if you come across this blog would you possibly just drop pretty much anything in my asks? it could just say hi, or you could ramble for 16 pages about some niche interest/piece of media/your day. send me a picture of your pet, tell me about your latest accomplishments (whether that’s a good score in a test, or you just managed to get out of bed this morning), pls just come and ramble to me bc i wanna learn more abt ppl and potentially make some friends

dni if you’re a creep/discriminate against anybody in any way (idm if you’re over 18, but pls don’t dm me)

fuck jkr

please please talk to me/dm me whatever i would love to talk!! (although warning, i ramble way too much)

📌 Welcome, friends, foes, and passersby, to my personal piece of fandom hell.

Have you made your daily clicks yet, today?

18+ Blog

No minors. No default icons. No bigots.

“Bigots” includes rad fems, exclusionists, and zionists. Trans people need feminism, too, gatekeeping helps no one, and zionism does not equate to Judaism (implying that genocide is a Jewish value is antisemitism).

For context on the default icons, see this post.

I intend to use my block button liberally, but I’m hoping the big text will help at least a little bit.

Fandom is meant to be fun, so if you’re here to spread hate, don’t. <3 I’ll just block you, and neither of us will gain anything from it.

This Blog Contains:

Adult content

Kink

Problematic media

Fictional depictions of violence and gore

Discussion of potentially triggering content

Please see this post for a list of tags you may want to block.

As a rule of thumb, I tend to tag things #[trigger] cw and use the keep reading feature in extreme cases. Please ask if you need me to tag something.

Viewer discretion is advised; be safe, bloggers.

Fandoms:

The Amazing Devil (Band)

Avatar: the Last Airbender

Doctor Who

Fullmetal Alchemist

Good Omens

Harry Potter – I do not support JKR

🖤 Hazbin Hotel

Helluva Boss

Steven Universe

🖤 The Witcher

I tend to cycle through them based on the whims of my wretched gremlin brain. When and why the cycle changes is unknown even to me.

Current main fandoms are marked with a ‘🖤’

About Me:

My name is Nico, I’m 25+, and I write fanfic. I use they/them and xe/xem pronouns. I’m queer in just about every sense of the word and fucked in the head, not in my bed.

I have freed myself from the shackles of amatonormativity (10/10, highly recommend) and am living my best life as a polyamorous, (a)sexual deviant engaging in relationship anarchy.

I don’t owe anyone my exact labels or diagnoses, but I do share them when I feel like it.

[nxuvillette]

｡･ﾟﾟ･ 𝔯𝔲𝔩𝔢𝔰

welcome to my blog! below are some general rules that must be followed in order to interact with me. i hope you read thoroughly and respect them!

GENERAL RULES

my blog is a strictly a character x reader blog. i will not write for any ships, so please refrain from sending anything regarding ships.

please do not ask me to be mutuals. 

going off that second rule, please do not send me direct messages unless we are mutuals. i get very uncomfortable with random messages in my dm’s, so please do not dm me unless you have permission from myself to do so. 

this blog is strictly 18+. i don’t mind if minors interact with my sfw content, but you must be 18 or older to interact with my nsfw and me personally. you will be blocked if you disregard this guideline, you have been warned.

do not copy my themes, layouts, etc. this goes for my writing as well. if you’re found to have done this, i will hard block you.

i do not take requests. i will accept thirsts and such and possibly write one into a fic, but otherwise, i will not be accepting requests. 

please refrain from sending asks that have to do with trauma dumping or anything serious of that matter. i also will delete asks that entertain discourse or are shady in general. i don’t have time for stupid drama or anything of the sort, thank you! 

spam liking is not allowed here. if you’re going to like 10+ of my posts within a minute without a single reblog, you will be hard blocked.

BEFORE YOU FOLLOW

like i said above, this blog is strictly 18+. i will hard block anyone who crosses my boundaries. minors that are under 18 are allowed to interact with my sfw content only.

do not interact with me if you fit any basic dni criteria, especially if you are prolife, racist, homophobic, etc. my blog is a safe space for anyone of any community.

i like to shitpost a lot. if you aren’t a fan of that, please don’t follow. my blog is a safe space for me to talk about whatever i want and it’s not always about writing and such.

this blog does contain sfw / nsfw content. i won’t write dark content, but i may occasionally interact with it. proper tags can be blocked if you are uncomfortable with it. 

ageless + blank blogs will be blocked.

i have a life outside of my blog. i post when i’d like and have the motivation, so please understand you won’t see me posting every single day. i am not a machine.

WRITING RULES

my blog is multifandom. i write for genshin impact, tokyo revengers, and blue lock. my interests tend to change often, but i will be sticking to these three fandoms only for the time being.

thirsts / my asks are always open, so if you have an idea, feel free to send in it!

i do not write for specific readers. ex: black!reader, trans!reader, etc. i will keep my writing as inclusive as possible so everyone can enjoy it.

i do not write for male!reader. my works will almost always be fem!reader or afab!reader.

this blog will only contain sub!reader. i don’t have much knowledge on how to write dom!reader, so it won’t be written here. 

i do not write dark content. occasionally, i may reblog it, but i will not write / interact with noncon, incest / stepcest, abo, dubcon, yandere, extreme gore, abuse, suicide, self harm, etc. if you are uncomfortable you may block the tag i use for dark content.

please do not recommend my blog or my works on any other platforms outside of tumblr. 

please do not translate my works onto other sites. i do not give anyone permission to do so by any means, so do not ask me.

all characters i write for will be aged up or written with their time skip. i won’t argue with you if you don’t believe in that, so any asks will be deleted on that matter!

[heartnagi]

WELCOME TO MY PINK-FILLED ROOM WHERE I TELL YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU SETTLE IN MY HOME <3

do read everything till the end! it's very important! i hope you enjoy your stay here. remember to read my FAQ as well!

BYF

do not interact if u fit basic dni criteria, thinspo, biphobic, fatphobic, anti-aging up, terf, character purist.

don’t follow me if you don’t reblog, don’t interact, if you spam like, and have no age/age indicator on your blog. i do not need people like these on my blog.

i like she/they pronouns, he/him are fine as well. masculine and feminine terms are fine with me. tone indicators are helpful for me ! but it is not required, using them is appreciated!

do not call me bitch, slut, etc. if we are not close. also, this blog is not spoiler free, however i will always tag as such.

do not ask me to be mutuals it’ll be so forced and awkward. let me follow you on my own. as for breaking the mutual, please hard block to avoid unnecessary confusion + potential unwanted interactions. no hard feelings.

i block a lot of people mostly because they fit the dni or they’ve made me uncomfortable. i would prefer if you don’t ask me why i’ve blocked you. unless there is an issue or you think i’ve made a mistake please politely tell me.

do not involve me in discourse. asks about discourse or anything rude i will not entertain. do not send me asks about rape, eating disorders, religion, politics, suicide, etc.

if your ask made me uncomfortable i’m deleting. please do not spam my inbox. if i have not answered your asks within a few days, politely let me know. however if i still don’t respond, i have deleted it because i do not want it on my blog. i only allow people i follow to send me messages. if you need to talk to me privately (with context please) about something then send me an ask off anon and i will message you as soon as i can.

but fr i do not bite please send me anything to your hearts content!!! be unhinged n horny and sweet whatever! <3 i just do not like mean people >:( i do not kinkshame and i love it when people talk about their selfships! (and thirsts) <333

ON PLAGIARISM & CONTENT SHARING

reposting, translating, plagiarism, and copying on writings, layouts, & themes are prohibited i also do not allow my writings to be shared or recommended outside tumblr (e.g tiktok, wattpad).

if you have seen someone that has plagiarised my work then quickly send me an ask to my inbox. let me know as well if you would like to dm so i can message you. i would like to deal with these matters myself and keep it private at most!

WRITING

multi-fandom blog : genshin impact, blue lock, obey me, twisted wonderland, jjk, hq, mha, tokyorev & anyone i’m in the mood for tbh — these are just to help you if you’d like to send some thirsts!

i write sfw, nsfw, and dc. but this is predominantly an 18+ blog. people 16+ are allowed to read my sfw works but are not allowed to follow me or you will be blocked.

i accept suggestions and thirsts! but i do not do requests unless i hold an event! do not send me requests as i will delete them. my writing speed is dependent on my motivation. please be patient with me and do not pressure me to finish anything. please send some suggestions & thirsts ! >:

“x reader” content only, fem reader, occasionally gn/afab, sub/dom/switch readers and characters. i do not like to describe my readers too much as i want my blog to be enjoyed by everyone! thus, specific features and descriptions will not be written.

i age up characters to 20+, if you’re not cool with that then leave. they’re lines on paper and actual pixels they do not care. if you cannot distinguish fiction from reality stay away from me.

i write sfw, nsfw, and dark content. anyone 16+ can read my sfw works but please do not follow me. as this space is only for individuals that are 18+.

this blog is dark content friendly, and creates explicit & dark content such as: heavy kinks, breeding, pseudo-cest, stepcest, age gap (legal) cnc, ntr/cheating, etc.

thank you for reading all my rules! now for your reward, i’ll give you this chocolate chip cookie and a little smooch!

[webslingerx]

Rules and general information

Howdy! I’m the mun and you guys can call me Sharae or simply Mun if you’re more comfortable with that! I use she/her pronouns and my blog and I are 100% LGBTQIA+ friendly for any and everyone! I’m 21 years old and I’ve been roleplaying for about 5 (five) years now! I am very shy and a very nervous person. I have gotten better at being more active and talking in DMs, sending asks for fun ect. But somedays I’m just too anxious to be active. This is a me problem not anyone else’s… so please don’t think I am ignoring you or anything! Now let’s get to the rules! I don’t have many rules as much as just “general knowledge” you need to know!

0: I don’t use icons in replies!! If you don’t use them that’s fine! If you do, that’s great! I love seeing everyone’s icons!!

1: I will not have anyone follow me if I know they are pedos and much more sickening themes around this spectrum. You will be blocked swiftly. This will be updated more once I can think.

2. Blog is multi-ship! Please remember that! So if I’m doing a ship with two people, each ship is in their own AUS/timeline. There is no cheating involved! Although in general ships will be selective I’m afraid. I love and cherish all my ships. Each ship is unique, different and beautiful!! I will treat all ships equally and with care! I am a very much a ship-hoe just selective, but do ask me! All I can say is no! That, or perhaps chemistry will just lead us to a beautiful relationship!

3. I have no triggering themes! I’m up for darker ones, light ones ect. But I will not approach first on darker topics but this is your sign to do so! I’m very new with darker topics but I have spirit to try my best!

4.I do not role-play in DMs nor in the replies! I do reblogs only and inbox role-plays.

5. I will not interact with anyone who excludes a gender no matter the reason. I will block you immediately. I will confess that I’ve done this before. They were a friend of mine before I realized they were like that. I have broken off all contact and don’t support or condone their behavior/choice nor anyone else like that. I have moved on and learned my mistake which is why I’m openly admitting this. Mistakes happen and I’ve learned my lesson. I feel horrible that it took me awhile to realize it was wrong but, I’ve learned and I won’t make that mistake again.

6. All OCs are welcome! I love OCs and I welcome them here with open arms! All I ask for is basic information and a picture/faceclaim of them! OCs are awesome and I love to interact with them!

7. No Godmodding my muse’s choices or actions! I will most likely ignore you if you do it a few times. I understand it may happen sometimes depending on the on your muse’s powers or during starters but ya get the drift!

8. If you have an issue with anyone I roleplay with, I recommend blacklisting them. I will tag ALL my roleplay partners so you won’t be able to see them (also you should block them) Now if the person is really toxic/problematic then please do tell me!

9. Over the years I’ve become “block happy”. I will block anyone who makes me uncomfortable, toxic, if you’re a rude anon or just a rude person in general. I’ve come to realize the block button isn’t a bad thing and I have to keep my space as happy and peaceful as possible if I wish to remain on tumblr.

10. Anon is on for now and I accept all anons! Including magic ones! But please don’t use the feature to send hate messages. If you have a problem with me block me. There’s no need for hate to be expressed. If this occurs, anon will be turned off temporarily until I feel like it can be used right once more.

11. I plan to keep my following under 50 maybe 100 (excluding rp sources) this is also just to keep me sane and anxiety-free. I do ask though please only follow if you wish to interact with me! I will read over your blog/rules and see if I can see us interacting with one another! If I don’t follow back immediately after your follow, I’m probably reading over your stuff or not active. I will be selective with who I follow so not everyone will be a follow back immediately. BUT do talk with me in DMs and maybe we can get something going!

I know this all makes me sound “standoffish” or “rough” but I promise you that I’m super friendly and extremely excited to be here! I’m just tired of being hurt by people and peeps following me and never interacting with me, using me as a number.

11. Once we become moots, I WILL try to send in all kinds of asks in character, out of character and just pester you lovingly! I will also hop in your DMs and just talk about our muses together and whatnot. I love engaging with my moots so be prepared for all sorts of asks! Don’t ever feel pressured to answer them all BUT if you don’t like that, please just let me know and I’ll just send in one a week or if you don’t want to get close, just lmk and I’ll lay off! You are welcome to sent me as many asks as possible for any reason! I love getting asks so PLEASE do! You won’t bother me at all!

12. For me, meme starters are the easiest way to start a plot with me tbh. I’m not a good plotter and prefer to leave things to fate BUT I can try if my partner wants to! Meme starters or just random starters in my inbox are the best and easiest for me!

13. I’m willing to write NSFW topics but only with people I’m comfortable with completely! So that means only moots that I’m completely comfortable with or know them a little! Or if you wish, we can do the next day thing!

14. I’m not picky with reply length as long as it’s not a one-liner. I can not work with those. I will drop any threads that are like that. I personally try to match my partners length but you don’t have to! As long as it’s not a one-liner I’m fine as can be!

15. I am dyslexic. I sometimes spell words wrong or string sentences together that make no sense. Please don’t be rude about my spelling mistakes. All I ask is you DM and I’ll fix the messed up sentence when able if needed!

16. Activity on this blog is VERY low. Due to this, I will run a queue for reblogs, asks and threads.

17. Please reblog things from the source. It clogs up my notifications! Honestly though if we are moots I won’t really care as long as you don’t reblog 20 things back to back from me! Also you free to reblog from me if the source is gone even if you aren’t a mutual of mine!

18. I tend to trim posts once we get to 8 to 11 reblogs! I will simply create a new post and link the original post to this one and tag you in it! I will place a 1 - 2 -3 ect if necessary! I also place the bulk of my writing under a readmore so it doesn’t clutter the dash as bad!

That’s all I can think of for now! List will be updated when needed! Thank you for reading all this!!

[oharasluverboy]

welcome to my blog..

this is my writing blog. i hope you enjoy your stay, make yourself at home. take a look around..if you like my work please reblog it, without reblogs my works do not circulate.

requests; open (1/3)..

commissions; open (0/3)..

introduction..

my username as you all know is oharasluverboy but you can call me jin-jin, or jin to make it easier. i am a fan fiction writer, so all my writings will be for fandoms, or ocs/persona rants or info-dumps. (please use he/him to refer to me, only people i consider close can use she/he pronouns on me. thank you for understanding.)

despite what my username suggests i won’t only be writing miguel o’hara fanfics, he’s just my baby gorilla that i hold near and dear to my heart at the moment. as time passes and my writing progresses every once and awhile i may drop non-related writings to the spider-verse. feel free to request things, i love requests and comments. comments help me stay motivated and just make my day knowing i can make others a little better.

my blog is a sfw and nsfw blog, so minors please don’t interact with my nsfw writings. i trust that most of you have common sense, and critical thinking skills.

my dms are open to anyone who wants to talk about writing, or suggestions for fanfics for the foreseeable future. if you want to delve into requests more deeper in private feel free to! i don’t judge most dark head-canons or requests unless it is in poor tastes; which i will go into in my guidelines..

resources..

masterlist

Recommendations..

SENTIENTFUNFETTI

one of my older brothers who writes! if you’re interested in welcome home this may be the blog for you! he’s an amazing writer, and devotes a lot of his time to his craft. though, at the moment all of his writings will be about wally specifically. please go show him some love!

more will be added if i find more blogs i enjoy/interact with..

more may be added later on!..have a wonderful day, spread the love everybody!

[crossroadsdimension]

...I should probably make a permanent pin so that I feel less guilty about reblogging my own fic chapters. So, here we go!

Hiya! Call me Cross -- not like the emotion; more like a fork in the road sort of idea. I’m a fanfic writer for...a lot of different fandoms, not gonna lie. XD I don’t have one specific one I lean on the most; I tend to cycle through depending on what I’m in the mood for at the moment.

My AO3 profile is here, under CrossingTheFourthWall. The only reason the name is different is because it’s a combination of my Tumblr name and my old Fanfiction.net name, FourthWallBreaker (I don’t post there anymore, but I’m leaving it up). Most of my fics are sort of OC self-insert-ish, but if you’re not interested, my more recent stuff (Arise Again and the Mental Connections/FFVII AU) doesn’t have any OCs taking the protagonist position.

IT SHOULD BE NOTED THERE IS ALWAYS A CHANCE MY FICS COULD BE LOCKED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. Between AI scraping and people potentially using AI to read fics aloud without consent, my hand has been forced. If people want to listen to my fics be read aloud, ask me to make a podfic and I’ll be willing to figure out how to post it to AO3.

If you want to read my fics -- and I have 51 and counting -- and you do not have an AO3 account, either make an account or ask via DMs for an invite code to skip the potential waitlist. I will need an email to send the code to, so I recommend making a dummy email account or pick one of however many you have. I promise not to use any information given for anything beyond what I have stated here.

I have a Discord server here!  Mostly it’s become a Tales of Arise fanfic writers hangout, but we’ve got interests beyond the Tales series. I post sneak peeks at my writing here, as well as talk about whatever interests have got my attention.

I do run a couple RP-centric blogs as well -- one for the aforementioned self-insert-ish OC, Maria Carlsdale, and another for a kitsune-themed Ford Pines. Both have been collecting dust for a while, because my first foray into RP was brief, but if folks want to give them a poke, you’re more than welcome to! Especially since I’ve recently revived Maria, so to speak. Just, ah, go easy on the blog design? I don’t have the skills to go poking around at making them look super fancy like some people do.

[thelocalmuffin]

Welcome! 2023 Edition

I'm Ellory/Muffin, and I'm part of the Bakery system. I'm a writer and zine creator who works almost all the time, so my activity is a bit sporadic. This is a multi-fandom blog, but you'll also see memes, personal posts and political stuff here.

This isn’t a DNI post or anything like that, this is just an introduction post. So, hello! There's more about the blog and what I do in the read below.

Writing: I mostly write, so please feel free to check out my AO3. You can also check out the tag #muffin writes for more short stories/direct links to stories.

It’s mostly Ace Attorney, but I'm dipping into other fandoms and other franchises I enjoy. Either way, I hope you find something you like. If you're looking for something specific, let me know and I'll see if I can recommend you something.

As a side note, I'm way too busy for requests but will occasionally open them when I have the time. Though, I really like doing trades. If you’re willing to do that, I’m way more likely to take your request.

Zine Stuff:

My zine portfolio is here!

Note: This will update often.

I do reblog some promotional stuff for my zine projects. I'm proud of what I’ve done and want to let people know what I've accomplished. Though, I'll always tag the name of the zine to make it a bit easier to organize.

Tags you might want to filter:

Muffin Speaks-personal tag Political-political tag

I know some people are here for escapism and that’s no issue with me. Just keep in mind I do also tag serious topics such as ableism, transphobia, and other themes if they are discussed in the post. If you need something tagged, just let me know.

Some stuff you might want to know about talking to me:

I do have my ask box open, but I do not respond to anon hate. It will be deleted and you will just have wasted your time. I understand criticism is necessary for growth, but sending derogatory messages won’t really get the point across. 

I don’t mind DMs to talk, but please keep in mind I am very socially awkward and shy. Oh, and my response time is very slow. As I said, I’m a busy bee.

If you want to be mutuals or friends, just give me some time to warm up to it but you are welcome to ask. Thank you for understanding.

That was a bit longer than I meant it to be, but I hope you enjoy your stay!

[the-pale-goddess]

Can you suggest ways to make friends in a fandom? Especially if someone is new to the fandom experience.

Sincere apologies for the delayed response, lovely Anon! I haven’t been contributing much to the fandom for quite some time, so I was very surprised and equally as touched by this ask. My heart is full whenever someone acknowledges my inconsistent presence on this hellsite, and I’m greatly honored that you came to me for advice 🥰

When I think of my beginnings in any fandom I have ever been in, I remember how overwhelmed I was at first—everyone seemed to be besties with each other, I didn’t know how to fit into this cool bunch of people. But that’s just a false impression! Tumbroke is a magical place where time and distance don’t exist, and it doesn’t matter if you’re a fandom granny or have just joined the fun. You’re always welcome here and making friends is much easier than it seems (and this is coming from an anxious mess of an awkward introvert kshkdhdkbd) All of us have the same purpose here: to have fun and obsess over *insert whatever you fixate on* ✨

The easiest way to make friends is simply interacting with others. Don’t be afraid to share your thoughts, everyone is eager to hear from you, I promise! Just be yourself and try to reach out to others in any way you feel comfortable with ❤️ Reblog/comment on the works you loved, reply to posts or make your own, send asks to those like-minded people you’d like to be friends with, engage in reblog games, etc. There are so many opportunities to start a conversation! Don’t get discouraged when you don’t get an immediate response—fandom is just a side gig, something we do when time and energy allow, everyone is busy with real life these days and most would never ignore you on purpose.

To me, the most efficient and wholesome way to bond with people is getting to know them personally through DMs. You may find something more than just a fandom friend to exchange blorbo ideas with. I was lucky to befriend some of the most wonderful individuals through DMs, so I wholeheartedly recommend this option ❤️

I’m not sure if you’re a creator or just vibing, but I cannot stress this enough: you don’t have to create content to make friends here, and writers/artists aren’t fandom celebrities. Everyone should be equal in the fandom. So try to find some genuine souls with a similar energy or shared HCs and make that first move. You won’t regret it ❤️

I hope that my response is going to be somewhat helpful and you’ll find your happy place in this little corner 🥰 I may rarely be here, but my DMs are always open for you!

Purpose for blog creation ---

The short and simple, I started this blog as a way to rebuild myself after a strong bout of burnout. I’ve been hyper driven and ambitious since I was quite young and have always struggled with the workhorse mentality. I haven’t had a moment of rest probably ever and want to use this blog as a way to develop a healthy relationship with academics, career, and myself. Along the road I hope to share my experiences and help others that are going through similar things. 

Welcome to my academic labyrinth of a blog, enjoy your stay, don’t get lost, and I'll see you around the woods.

DO NOT INTERACT IF: you fit the basic dni criteria \\ support racist or any problematic creators \\ you support israel \\ can’t discuss things (like differing opinions) maturely \\ you are a pro-shipper \\ you are a porn link poster \\ you write smut for minors (aging them up with no canon time skip is also not welcome); for example nezuko, megumi, tanjiro, klee, denji etc etc.

FOR THE MINORS: i don’t care that you’re on my page reading my works. you’re the one taking the risks and the responsibility of what you’re going to read is all yours. don’t make me catch you though; any visible age under 17, gets blocked.

HATE ASKS get either completely ridiculed & clowned or instantly blocked & deleted, no in-between. idc abt what you say (especially on anon; coward activities LOL). you got something to say about me, say it to me directly or keep being obsessed ig..

this blog is mostly jjk-centred. however, i do publish genshin or hsr related fics from time to time.

empty blogs will get blocked. inactive blogs too. use your accounts. spam liking will also get you blocked instantly.

i use the block button how i please. if i block you, i have a reason. if we were mutuals, i hard block most of the time. if you decide to block me & we were mutuals: please hardblock me, not soft block.

this is not an only writing blog. i talk, vent and reblog stuff to my liking. i also talk about my own selfships. if you don’t like it, don’t complain. just block.

english is not my first language. don’t expect perfect english grammar — unasked criticism is not needed.

i do not indulge myself in personal discourse nor do i entertain it, unless i (or a mutual of mine) was offended first. when that happens & you do not want to see it, filter ‘cw discourse’.

!! i may state my own opinion on some topics (also discourse topics) though. they are tagged as tw vent or cw discourse mostly. if you find it so annoying to see someone state their opinion or vent on their own blog, literally just leave and block me.

most works are self-centred / self-indulgent: meaning, they are all female centred. reader is always portrayed as a woman. though, no further descriptions are added (skin tone, body type etc.) unless i specify so in the tags.

this blog is not spoiler free. i also may forget to put spoiler warnings every now and then. don’t hesitate to politely remind me to add them if that happens.

Q&A

can i dm you to talk or ask something?

yes! as long as you stay respectful, my dms are always open. mutuals can ask for my discord any time as well.

you’ve blocked me, what did i do?

i use the block button how i like. if you’re blocked, you’re either one of the ppl in my dni or a blank/ageless/empty blog with no posts. or, it’s just that i didn’t feel comfortable with something you posted or said. orrrrr, it’s because of your own do not interact criteria and i went ahead and blocked you to spare you the trouble :)

i have this fic i really wanna send you, because i think you’ll enjoy it! can i send you the link via your inbox?

of course! i’d love tooooo read them & i’d love to read your recommendations. if you’re a writer and want me to see your work, because you think i’ll like it, you can also send me the link or tag me in the post. self-promo is welcome on my blog - as long as you keep it respectful and don’t pressure me into reading it :)!

why do you block inactive and/or empty blogs that interact with you or follow you?

simply because some of you need to learn that tumblr works on reblogs. plus, empty blogs (and especially with the default tumblr layout) look like bots. lurkers are also not welcome. if you want to keep reading the amazing fictional works on this app, then you need to help your creators out by reblogging their content. it shows support, even if you don’t add any tags to it.

you haven’t posted a fic in a while. when are you publishing one?

i’m a slow writer sometimes. do not expect a fic each day or even each week / two weeks. i have a social life outside of this tumblr account i started just for fun — no pressuring me into or asking for a part 2 either or you’re blocked.

week-long fandom events: some tips from a pro

a while ago someone asked for advice for running week-long fandom events, and I thought my thoughts might be useful for other people too!

disclaimer: I am NOT actually a pro, that was just a catchy turn of phrase, lol. however I have run several events for several years, and I’d love to share some of my tips and tricks!

these are tips for tumblr-based events; if you’re running your event on a different site or on multiple sites, this might not be the most applicable to you.

some of these points will also be useful for events outside of the week-long structure, but some will be specific to that structure, as it is the one I am most familiar with!

here we go:

it's really nice to have an event sideblog to organize things; the events I've seen that run on people's main blogs are a little more confusing / hard to promote & follow

make sure you know the most popular tags in your fandom and get your promo posts into those tags! especially for first time events, tag blogs with lots of followers / influence and/or DM them and ask for them to boost the event, even if they're not participating

visual banners will draw in more eyes than posts that are just plain text, so try adding a header to your promo posts

give people enough time to prep for the event. I usually make the first announcement about 2 months before the event, and then schedule regular reminder posts as I get closer to the event. I make a reminder post 1 month out, 1 week out, and 1 day before, and then make sure I'm posting something every day of the event (at least) - the queue function is extremely useful for this, so you don’t forget to post!

themes for each day give people something to plan around / inspire them, I definitely recommend them. I usually just have one theme per day, but I've also seen events that give different themes for different mediums, or a list of themes each day that creators can pick from

have a pinned post with links to important information! this includes prompts, rules, FAQs, a link to an AO3 collection, etc. since blog pages are not accessible on the mobile app, it might be useful to also have post versions of any pages you make, and link to those in your pinned post.

when it comes to FAQs & etc, feel free to look at the pages on any of my event blogs (listed at the bottom of this post) and borrow concepts/phrasing from those if it's helpful for you. if you do this PLEASE credit me, but you are welcome to do so

off-site promos might not be the most wide-reaching, but Discord especially is a good place to draw attention to your event for people who don't track tumblr tags. I know I also post links to my promo posts on Twitter, and I usually catch a couple people there who are like "oh I didn't know that was happening, cool!"

track your event tag AND frequently check your event blog’s activity - tumblr is rotten about notifications, so it’s important to keep an eye on things and make sure you’re not missing any submissions!

reblog every submission to your event to the event blog. this is why the blog is there! this is how you can bost the content for your event and help other people find it! I recommend tagging those reblogs for organization with at least the url of the OP; I will also tag for relevant characters, sometimes relevant ships, and the medium of the post (art, fic, etc), and sometimes which prompt the submission was inspired by. also, I find it useful to tag which year the event takes place so you can track your event’s growth over time.

finally, make sure to participate in your own event; it doesn't have to be every day, but I think it's a little weird if you aren't creating content yourself, even if it's "just" a text post with headcanons or something!

these are all just things I like to do in organizing my events; there are other ways to run things, and you'll figure out your own system as you go on, but I hope this gives you a starting ground!

if anyone has any questions about running an event, I’m happy to give you further advice! send me an ask or a DM with any questions :)

happy event planning!

Would love to hear more thoughts on how these girls have understandable teenage motivations (A+ tag analysis by the way)

1. Thank you!!!!!!

2. ALRIGHT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS (shuffles my papers). i’ve gone off about homura’s motivations in depth before but i think it was only in dms/groupchats? anyways i’ll go in order with All the girls bc i think about this all the time as a teenager who grew up mentally ill and had their perceptions skewed because of it, and also i don’t think it’s talked about nearly enough for the others, at least on my blog... so, buckle up!!! this is REALLY LONG!!!! 

3. i tried writing like, an individual thing for every member of the quintet all together in this one ask, but i ended up talking a little too much about homura and now i’m going to split up all the different analysis stuff for each character into the reblogs and work on it every so often! you’re free to kinda skim of course because i really did write a whole novel but here we go!! read under the cut. :3 this is literally essay length btw. i did NOT expect it to get this long but if you want to read it all i’d recommend it but i don’t expect most people to

First: Homura Akemi

okay so i’m going to kind of summarize everything but from the perspective of empathizing with her so if you don’t want to reread a whole recap you can skip to the ending few paragraphs

Summary

first of all, in episode 10, homura’s past is explained for the viewer. she was a shy, unsure girl who had been bedridden for a long time. she was clearly unsocialized, not to mention she went to a catholic school and those can be brutal, esp in japan... that’s all we know about her in that episode, but it’s revealed in one of the drama cds that she was bullied as a child(& further at mitakihara middle), her parents never were mentioned ever (i assume them to either be dead or neglectful, considering she lives alone and unchecked), and in magia record, homura says to natsuki that she’s never had friends before, she hasn’t been on vacation before until the beachside bonds event, hasn’t ever celebrated valentine’s day, has never celebrated new years, etc... 

clearly, she’s missed out on a lot not only because of her sickness and hospitalization, but because of her isolation as a child at school. judging by her demeanor and the way she reacts when madoka comes up to her without being asked to, something like that had never happened to her before. it’s clear to me that madoka was many of homura’s “first’s”, her first friend, the first person who reached out to her, the first person to compliment her name honestly(validating her, disproving her dislike of her name), the first person to regard her so kindly rather than judging her based off of her appearance and demeanor (like other students had apparently done, this is also shown when the other students at mitakihara middle make fun of her for being tired after only being able to run one lap). AND, madoka (and mami, but homura knew madoka better at that time) saved her life, even though homura was so willing to die, just in that moment... i’d assume it made homura feel like someone believed in her even when she was at her worst. it’s really clear by the glimmer in her eyes that these are nice people that made her feel happy and welcome... and then walpurgisnacht came. she didn’t know much about magical girls and just believed in madoka and mami to be able to defeat the witch because she saw them as strong and saw the witch as defeatable, despite its size. and then mami died, right in front of her and madoka... 

this kinda seems headcanon-y when i phrase it this way but it’s practically proven in her actions but i really think homura is scared to be abandoned, especially by someone who was as overtly kind and nonjudgemental to her as madoka... it’s in the way she cries her name and says “don’t go” before madoka runs away to fight walpurgisnacht. OH ALSO, i need to address this one thing really quick because people like to assume that homura didn’t care about mami from the beginning and only liked madoka. it’s not that she wasn’t sad when mami died, she was clearly terrified and didn’t want the same to happen to madoka, also mami LITERALLY WASN’T IN HER CLASS OR HER GRADE so i assume she spent most of her time with madoka considering they were in the same grade and class and probably shared most of their periods with each other... but also, once again, mami is older than both of them and homura probably saw her as more of a mentor/teacher that she needed to impress rather than madoka who was more on her level, i guess?

anyways, moving on... homura had to see madoka die (& experience the crushing guilt she felt for “letting madoka go” even though there was nothing she could’ve done) and literally says “i’d rather you had lived than saved someone like me” ... her self worth is below zero. she makes her wish to be strong enough to protect madoka(because she sees madoka, her first friend, who saved her life which she felt had no worth, as so strong and noble) which causes her to go back in time, etc. etc., you know the deal. okay before i move on to talk a little more abt the timelines and the personality change i’m going to address why it’s reasonable that she’d be attached to madoka.

i mentioned before that homura said herself that she had never had a friend before. just like, put yourself into her shoes for a second. this girl has no idea how to make friends; it was never taught to her. it’s literally rational that she’d get attached to her first ever friendship. it’s not “normal” the way she views madoka, but how could it be? this is her first time having a friend, she’s afraid of being abandoned by her, but she’s had to see her die over and over again anyway. she doesn’t want to lose madoka. even if she doesn’t go about it in the right way, there’s no way she would’ve actually known how to Do relationships. no one taught her. i think that needs to be empathized with more...

i kinda feel like i need to summarize all this just bc if i word it right it kinda reminds you & puts into perspective just how terrible and scary all of this was.

anyway Again, i would skip straight to the end of timeline 3 (where a New Flavor of trauma is given to homura) but i need to first address timeline 2 for a second. it was homura’s first time repeating the timeline, she trained with madoka and mami again, she was still hopeful despite what happened, etc. kinda just bonding further with madoka Again... and then it’s at the end of this timeline that she watches madoka turn into a witch, just in front of her very eyes... and realizes the true fate of magical girls. when she resets the timeline again, it’s up to her to start anew and break the truth to the group when she sees them again. when she tries telling the truth, sayaka immediately shoves this aside, claiming homura was just trying to split everyone up. it’s clear that that hurts homura. (also the little shinies in her eyes were wavering which is anime-code for sad) her feelings were immediately disregarded by sayaka and she couldn’t defend herself, but madoka did for her, and mami tried to diffuse the situation. 

after they all find out homura was right when sayaka turns into a witch, mami kills kyoko and ties up homura in her ribbons and aims a gun at her, and this, rightfully, ignited a fear within homura... madoka is forced to kill mami in order to save homura, leaving only the two of them to fight together. then, when walpurgisnacht comes that time, The Promise is made... madoka tells homura to go back in time and save her from becoming a witch (because she doesn’t want to curse the world that way, she still sees beauty in it) and homura agrees, saying she’ll never stop until she saves madoka, and then... homura has to mercy kill madoka before she becomes a witch. she cries loudly and shoots madoka’s soul gem... it’s literally so heartwrenching and (usually) brings the viewer to tears, or puts something into perspective for them...

then we assume the personality change happens in the timeline right after. this personality change causes a lot of discourse because sometimes it’s seen as kind of irrational, but personally, i think even moemura had at least SOME resent for the world around her considering what she’d been through. it’s madoka’s repeated deaths that finally push her over that edge. i could get further into the coolmura arc but that’d take a WHILE, so i’ll just kind of explain something briefly though -- why homura ended up becoming even MORE focused on madoka. and i’m also going to debunk the claim that homura doesn’t care about her other friends as fast as i can before moving on.

also, ONE LAST side tangent, for those that think homura really did do a 360 degree personality turn are wrong. it’s shown explicitly in homulilly’s labyrinth that there’s this... “core” homura, a shadowy purple silhouette with braids. every time the series depicts homura’s internal self, it’s always glasses+braids, symbolizing her “child” self, who she truly is. she never stopped being that person. she doesn’t want to kill. ...but i can get into that in a rebellion analysis later! this is also shown in wraith arc bc the person inside her soul gem has glasses+braids. anyway let’s get to the next part i’m going to rant about

Homura’s Love for Madoka, but Otherwise Apathy

homura has seen many different, yet all similar, versions of her friends. the first claim i’m going to talk about which i saw brought up quite a few times before is in regards to homura and mami. first of all, homura absolutely still cares for mami, and not just in the “i only care about your life if it affects madoka’s” way. one part that always gets me is when mami ties her up in the series timeline after homura frantically warns her that this witch isn’t normal, to which mami IMMEDIATELY brushes this off, without even giving homura a chance. then, when mami’s ribbons fade away, homura looks horrified and just goes “oh no...” and it’s kind of obvious to me that it was in response to mami’s death rather than madoka’s reaction. this is arguably up for debate i guess because i’ve seen different takes on that reaction and it’s ambiguous, i guess? but i’m about to get into something extremely similar and that’s the sayaka situation, where madoka throws sayaka’s soul gem onto a moving car. homura gasps and immediately pauses time and disappears, running in literal open traffic and climbing on top of a moving car to retrieve sayaka’s soul gem. one could argue that this is ALSO only just because homura wants to save madoka (and kyoko) the fear, but don’t you think her expression would be different? if homura truly didn’t care for sayaka’s wellbeing, wouldn’t she be making an expression more similar to like, “oh, this shit again...” instead of the frantic one she was making in the scene? this kind of thing Also happens when kyoko asks homura to leave while kyoko’s about to sacrifice herself in oktavia’s labyrinth, and homura looks up sadly at kyoko and then back down at madoka, and once she knew kyoko was dead, she just quietly said “kyoko...” to herself. she usually refers to them as [last name, first name], but she dropped that during that moment... it otherwise sounds like a bare minimum thing to do, but keep in mind the timeline we’re shown in the series is implied to be like, the 110th timeline, i think? like, this is the last timeline, she’s worn down, but she still does have empathy -- or at least sympathy -- for the others. she still loves them. 

homura promised to be madoka’s protector, she dedicated her life to her, and also she doesn’t have a choice not to dedicate her life to her anymore, even though that’s not fair to her... homura is in a really hopeless situation and madoka is her hope, and madoka is the one that judges her the least out of the quintet (like saying “i’m sure homura is good” to herself) upon first impression. also okay i mentioned this already in my last post (which you saw) but i’m going to bring it up one more time, homura is not mentally 26!!!!!! she is still 14 mentally!! in order to be 26, you have to have experienced 26 years of new life experience. maybe you acquire that through school, maybe you aquire that through friends, whatever it takes. but homura just repeated the same month over and over, and it’s not like her body (canonically) ages ever. she just kind of gets transported back into her body in the hospital again considering she’s back wearing her braids and pajamas... so, yeah. no mental development there. i also mentioned this here but i’m gonna say it again, that just makes it even harder for her to actually age correctly... it stunts her to 14. imagine being 14 for 10-11 years...

In Defense Of My Own Claims

btw before you think i’m just going full-on radical homura apologist, i’m not explaining all of this to be like “homura made ALL THE RIGHT DECISIONS because her trauma gave her an excuse!!” because like, Obviously, she did a lot of bad things, she killed people, did a lot of callous things, a lot of thoughtless things, a lot of things that make her seem emotionless, etc. but i just have trouble blaming her considering how things ended up, and it’s not like she enjoys killing people. she’s not sadistic... she ends up becoming short with all the others not only because of her (extremely) weakened trust in them, but also because the amount of times she repeated the timeline. i’d imagine it makes her feel like the others can’t truly die because she can just go back and see them again. (this is also why wraith arc/post-tv series must’ve been hard for her because she can no longer turn back time, things are permanent now, deaths are forever) she’s become so worn down that she’ll do anything to escape the loops... also considering she has no choice but to continue? although it shouldn’t be, it’s technically her job as a magical girl to defeat all witches and walpurgisnacht counts. it kills magical girls and tears up the whole city and she’s usually the only magical girl left... her choices, when defeated, are either to give up and die or to go back and try again, and she made a promise to her first ever friend to do just the latter... i just don’t understand how this isn’t easier for people to comprehend, that all of this trauma and stress and responsibility on top of an already traumatized 14 year old does not mix well. ever. she had to figure out all of this by herself.

TL;DR:

homura was a previously traumatized, unsocialized 14 year old with (very)low self esteem & self worth whose first friend (and first love, really, let’s be honest) died in front of her in horrific ways and she watched as she (and the other friends she came to make) drifted slowly apart from her in her endless and futile attempt in saving her from what proved to be an inescapable fate. also she’s 14 and also she’s (canonically) mentally ill and a lesbian. not a monster, not evil, not “psycho”. and that’s that!

I do warn you, I occasionally make yandere content, so if that’s something you don’t like, please please please keep this in mind if you ever look through any of my content, blocking the tag or reading through the warnings of a fic in advance is something I would recommend if it makes you uncomfortable and you’re still interested in looking my art and writing and everything else I have to offer on my blog, I want you to have a good time here!
