successor | p.p.

summary: you realize that you don't want to be like your father; follow in his footsteps. you have a different want, a different need from him. but you find the perfect person to take your spot.

lemme know ur thoughts

okay this one was okay kinda did it while i was supposed to be doing review packets for the midterms

word count: 1.4+ words-ish

it was never anything i'd ever though about.

fashion was a hobby and that was that. i'd take over my dad's place as ceo, straight out of high school, right after two years of shadowing, end of story.

no questions, no discussion. and that was fine, right? no biggie. it wasn't like i'd cared.

but, oh, that was then.

this is now.

midtown is a school for science and engineering, but this year our theme was "openmindedness". every senior year, which was mine this time, different schools from across the world came in to share about their school and provide information.

now, since this year was all about having an open-mind, they didn't just have stem-ly, ivy league, big brain/smart science schools come.

but they had other things, too. like fine arts.

including the fashion institute of technology, one of the best. and you know, just for fun, i applied as early action.

i didn't think i'd get in. but the fact that a staring at bold text that reads "congrats!", i stand corrected.

like, okay, wow, way to chuck that in my face and send me flying. plot twist in my life that is already enough of a dumpster fire; now i have to re-think my entire future because my heart is doing happy/uneasy flips in my stomach and i can't figure out if this is good or not?

god, i used to be so indecisive. now i don't know.

i may have contridicted myself here.

why don't i ever know anything? this is a re-occuring problem.

over the last year or so, i've been getting more serious about my future. y'know? like, this is happening. i'm adulting.

i don't want to be adulting.

because, damn, it's not hot. at all.

...whatsoever.

fashion, for so long, has been the thing that makes me happy. it's been the one constant in my life. i mean, 90% percent of the clothes in my closet were designed by yours truly.

and a career in that? that sounds like heaven, it's too good to be true.

but now i have a chance. this is my one-way ticket into this whole thing.

on the other hand... what would i tell my dad? i'm his only kid. who else would take of the stark thing? i'm supposed to be his successor.

but on the other, other hand, i don't want to be his successor. i want to be a designer. i can't do that from a fancy desk in a fancy tall buliding with fancy people who carry around fancy briefcases and make words longer by turning things like "because" into "the particular reason for the circumstance".

oh my word, i'm having a mid-life crisis at 17 years old.

no, no, no panicking. peter would know what to do. he always knows.

he's like yoda, but 17 and a spider.

y/n: help

y/n: i'm gonna die if you don't get here

arachnikid: what's wrong?

arachnikid: babe are you okay??

arachnikid: the dots went away

arachnikid: why did the dots go away???

arachnikid: don't move

arachnikid: oh my god oh my god oh my god

arachnikid: i'm coming i'll be right there

maybe it was sadistic slightly to watch peter panic like that, but part of it was amusing. in less then a minute, my window was pulled up and a huffing spider crawled into the room.

"hi, baby!" i chirped, letting him grab my face and examine me.

"i- you- what's wrong?" he panted.

"i need some of your old man wisdom."

peter was quiet for a moment, "huh?"

"i'm going through a mid-life crisis."

"wait, but- you're 17."

"yeah."

"jeez, you really scared me."

i shrugged, "yep. sorry 'bout that. that's on me."

"uh-huh," he glared at you, flopping down onto my beanbag and tossing his mask aside.

i paused, trying to figure out how to word this. finally, i settled on; "i don't want to be the ceo."

he was absolutely dumbfounded. and i didn't blame him. what sane person would want to pass this up?

so i tried again, walking over to my laptop. "uh, okay. you know how, like, all those colleges came to our school?"

"... yes?" peter said, not sure where this was going.

"and there was this really awesome fashion one, yeah, babe?"

"...yes? oh- oh my gosh. you wanna...? go there?"

i pulled up the acceptance letter. he gaped, "wow! you- you're in! why didn't you tell me? this is awesome!"

"you aren't mad?"

he furrowed his brows, "no. why?"

"because i'm wasting my life?"

"no, you're doing something you love. and that's worth everything. also, i kinda had a feeling this would happen." he strided over to my closet, pulling it open and gesturing to what was inside of it.

"do you even realize how good you are? because, angel, lemme tell you, you are amazing at this. it's freaking crazy. and the fact that you tailor most of you dad's suits? that says it all."

i blushed, but my short-lived happiness was quickly replaced by fear. "what about my dad? there's no way-"

"he wants you to be happy. this is your happy. he'd never take that away from you."

"really?"

"of course."

"but... who else would do it, then? i'm his only kid."

peter came over and briefly kissed my lips, "i'm sure he'll find someone."

i grinned; i'd already found one.

i inhaled rather dramatically as i stood in front of the big door. what was i even going to say?

oh, well, i'll cross that bridge when i get there.

okay, i'm kind of already at that bridge but it doesn't matter.

i only knocked once before entering, catching my dad tinkering out of the corner of my eye.

"heyyyy... dad, i- uh, whatcha working on?"

"hmm? oh, just upgrading this. i was gonna add some-"

"that's really cool. i have to tell you something."

he looked up, squinting at me, "i swear, if peter got you preg-"

"no! no, of course not! god, dad. we use protection, and i'm on the pill."

"wait, you've been having sex?"

"okay, i think we're getting off topic."

"from what?"

"the stark industries. i-"

"oh, yeah, i'm so glad you'll be working with me. like father, like daughter. too good."

"no- what? that's- that's not where i was going with this."

"then what?"

i sucked in a whole lot of air;

"igotacceptedintothecollegeofmydreams,well,it'sonlybeenmydreamfor,like,lessthanayear,butwhatever,andiwantotdofashionandnotthisstuff."

"um, slower maybe?"

i drew in a breath, "i don't want to work for the industries. i want to do fashion. and i got into this-"

"what? you don't want to be ceo?"

"yeah," looking down at my shoes, i felt shame creep up my neck. had i said the wrong thing? i should've kept my mouth shut. i just fucked this up.

i glanced up to see him press his lips together, and then lean against the table, folding his arms. my dad sighed, "well, i know that once you've set your mind to something, you're pretty stubborn about it, and i guess that may be on me," he added with a chuckle. "but is this something you're sure you want to do?"

"well, yeah. it's my iron man."

"okay, what?"

"sorry, bad comparison. i just meant that, well, this is what i love to do. it's my everything. you know that, right?"

"i had a feeling."

"you aren't mad?"

dad came over beside me, pecking my hairline. "'course not. i'm happy. happy that you told me, because now you won't be stuck doing something you don't like your whole life." he then ran a hand through his hair. "so what now? i gotta find someone else then. young, like you, i guess."

"can i help?"

"sure, i mean."

"cool. i picked one."

"already?"

"yeah."

"uh, background search? like all of that?"

"oh, i already know their background."

"yeah? who?"

"you know him. rather well, really."

"i do? jeez, just tell me, peanut."

"peter parker."

it was my 5th anniversary of my line, which, by the way, totally took everyone by storm. as far as i knew, everything was going great, and the bright dimond ring on my left hand told me just that.

stark industries was written off offically to peter, just last year. currently, they were working kind of side-by-side, and that would be until my dad retired.

i tied the bow on a small-ish white box, smiling to myself.

in it were two things, yet to be presented to my husband. a positive pregnacy test and a strip of paper that had multiple sonograms on it.

yeah, i was my dad's favorite girl.

but pete was his successor.

and y'know what?

i couldn't be happier about it.

Legacies 1x03 Rewatch

Haven't even made it past the Previously On ... and I'm already rolling my eyes at Alaric's speech to Hope. Like how did the writers think yes, let's sprinkle this all in so heavy handed but next season, when it's his blood daughter doing all that and more, let's have him sit silently and coddle her and force her murder victims to be nice. The character assassination -

I can't be the only one who does not give a fuck about the flashbacks over the season. Like not a single one is memorable except the Ben/Jen ones. I forget they exist and I really don't care.

My chain spell potential. Wasted.

No but why is Lizzie actually so nice to Penelope in the beginning?? Like last episode, she's willing to go along with Penelope's ideas and this episode, of all the people in the room, she's the one to say why Penelope's absent? I know Josie said she used to have a crush on Penelope but GIRL GET UP.

"If it pleases the court." Is this and 4x12 foreshadowing Lawyer!Lizzie? Because if so, I'm down for it.

"If anyone should take the blame, it's Josie." "WhAt?" I mean, look. Did Lizzie need to point it out? No. Bitch move. But it literally is because of Josie. How is she gonna stand there and pretend like it wasn't.

"I promise I'm not gonna betray you by being friends with Hope (who I made you believe hated you and did some fucked up things to you)." The very next morning:

"You only play by the grown-up rules when you don't need something from me." Get him again Hope!

"Baby, I'm a loser, yeah, yeah, yeah." as Lizzie stares at Hope's ass. I can read between the lines.

"Litter, weeds, graffiti." And then they immediately forget about weeds. Like they split into two groups and not a soul went to weed??

"I love trash. As of this moment." "Your sister's kind of a dumpster fire." HOPE. I SEE YOU. I SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU.

"Daddy's girls." Said the pot to the kettle.

"You run, I run. Period." BRING RAFAEL BACK TO ME ALREADY. THE JOKE ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE.

"She hates me, doesn't she?" "I don't want him to hate me." Tethered.

As much as I hated it, I miss Kaleb's stance on supernatural-human relations. I hate that it just went away. It made him into a villain-like character, but damn it, it was interesting. Why did Legacies let all their interesting plots go in favor of "immortal man dies again" "the girl who grieved grieves again" "girl who ran runs again"??? I would have rather seen Kaleb start a small sect of students who believed in his idea that supernaturals were better than humans than listen to Josie whine about how she wants to leave again because people don't like that she murdered them for a season and a half.

No because fuck MG and Connor for that one. I will never understand the absurd Lizzie hate in S1. It reads like a bad fanfic where they layer on the abuse to set the tone but it also is wildly unrealistic and not based on anything.

PEDRO! (Side note: Had a dream last night where J*lie appeared to tell me there was a spin off about Pedro coming and I just told her everything she did wrong)

Enough time has passed. Emma and Alaric should've ended up together.

Call him a bitch, Lizzie. You know you want to.

"Hope and Josie are all sisters in solidarity." Baby, just say your crush is picking trash with someone else.

"But as I was walking home, I did the work and I dug deep." I want to give you a hug.

"She has a point." This is gonna be a real controversial opinion here but I think Emma was more of a mother figure to Lizzie than Caroline was.

"People disappoint." "When I let my guard down, people disappoint." How did I not see what they were setting up from the beginning.

Lizzie sacrificing herself for all of Mystic Falls who had done nothing but treat her like shit really get glossed over

"We've known each other over a decade and anytime you get the chance, you poke." Maybe because you've been spreading rumors about her and bullying her since you were eleven?? She heard that shit??? God, I can't stand Josie's fake innocent act.

"I can heal it." BUT YOU CAN'T HEAL THAT BEAUTY OF A SHOE HOPE.

"Sir, we've already taken your money twice." Landon's so soft.

"I just think that that's making me a little bit nauseous." It's called jealousy.

"MG has the impulse control of a pre-schooler." That's such a nasty thing to say about your "best friend" who has diagnosed ADHD?? Open a fucking book.

"He also always goes for the wrong girls." Yeah, you're gonna tell me that wasn't a shot at Lizzie? The one girl MG goes for repeatedly??

"Lizzie has dibs" and mind you Lizzie just arbitrarily decided to try and crush on him

"She always has dibs." So is it canon that Lizzie called dibs on Penelope then?

"Lizzie's sensitive." IF I SPEAK -

"That's why she's extra testy lately." No I'm pretty sure that's because in the last 48 hours, she's been assaulted several times, you've been lying to and gaslighting her, and her father's been a giant hypocrite. But sure. She's not there to defend herself, so keep going.

Jeremy really just showed up once and never again, huh?

Josie feels it when Lizzie is attacked by monsters but not when she uses black magic?

Dana and Penelope would have been best friends and she should've been in the Dana x Josie AU.

"I had to ask the honorable -" Blah blah blah. I'm really finding it hard to fall for the nice guy act this time around knowing what he does at the end.

Standing there silently while Kaleb talks all sort of misogynistic shit on Lizzie. Ooh if I could reach through a screen -

"She didn't. I did." ... okay?

No because Rafael losing Cassie and Hope losing Landon at the same time would have hit hard. And what if I just rewrite Legacies myself? Like damn.

I love that they just leave Lizzie on the floor. Like not a soul even holding her hand as she whimpers in pain. Wow.

Alaric jumps in front of Hope like she wouldn't just wake up a Tribrid if the gargoyle had got her. You're telling me this man was ready to die if his research was wrong just so she could stay human?? I'm not buying it.

"Me being the evil one in this scenario?" and I know she was flashing back to eleven years old hearing Josie make all the witches laugh at her for being a villain

"These secrets are gonna tear us apart." If only she knew.

"In their minds, we're the villains because we won't give them what they want. We don't even know why they want it." Oh the Dark!Josie foreshadowing.

Me, trying to listen while also trying to jam out to Raign.

"I had the kitchen make these. Your favorite. Brownies." "Someone else's baked goods?" Oh Hope was throwing shots and I didn't even know yet.

Also Lizzie's favorite isn't brownies. It's key lime pie. She says so later in the season. Get it to-fucking-gether, MG.

No because Dana running into the Salvatore School to deface it, finding out about the supernatural, and turning THAT into a plot would have hit so good.

Since the new live action Avatar is apparently out on netflix, I figured now is an excellent time to remember the last attempt at a live action this series got.

Avatar: The Last Airbender is one of the most beloved TV shows of all time, with amazing writing, world-building, and characters. Conversely, The Last Airbender (no avatar in this title) is one of the most detested and worst movies of all time. I doubt that I have anything new to say about it because it has been getting dragged since it was released 14 years ago, but that won't stop me from dragging it some more.

As is the trend with many live action reboots, this movie hates fun. The original show was colorful, funny, and charming; the movie is none of those things. The color palette seems to have been taken directly from a Saw movie, with not a warm tone to be found. For comparisons sake, here's a side by side of the gaang from the movie and from the original:

Isn't it incredible how they managed to sap all the color out of the original character designs?

One of my favorite things about the original cartoon was the expressive animation. I don't expect a live action movie to have expressive animation, but I do expect expressive acting, or even just regular acting. Unfortunately for myself and the world at large, the main actors did not get the memo that they were supposed to do that, so instead they delivered their dialogue stone faced with weird pacing. I don't want to hate on the actors too much, as many of them were children when this movie was released, and who knows what sort of direction M. Night Shyamalan gave them. However, I will say that with maybe the exception of Dev Patel, who played an okay Zuko, the cast did an awful job of capturing the magic of the original characters. I am willing to give a pass to Seychelle Gabriel, because she voiced Asami in The Legend of Korra, and I am nothing if not an Asami supporter. But the rest of the cast is on very thin ice.

Another fun thing about this god-forsaken movie is the way it manages to make the viewer feel incredibly uncomfortable. It has an aura about it that I can only describe as constipated. The feeling I got watching is reminiscent of the time I was roped into listening a coworker at McDonalds talk about his crypto scheme, except that only lasted about 15 minutes, and the movie is 103 minutes long.

Truly the only good quality of the movie is its ability to bring together so many people in hatred. There aren’t too many things we can all form a near-universal opinion on, but we can all agree that this movie is a dumpster fire.

Unlike some of the other movies I have hated on this blog, I don’t think it is controversial for me to hate this one. It has already been so thoroughly hated on that all the points I make here are hardly likely to be original. Regardless, I felt it necessary to kick this dead horse, both for the opportunity to complain (one of my favorite activities), and because I need to choose one movie to hate per week for the class this blog is for, and this one is so so hateable. I didn't even list everything wrong with it and this post is already so long.

I haven't watched the new live action show yet, and I don't really have high hopes, but given how low the bar is, it would have to limbo into hell to disappoint me.

#atla #live action avatar movie #avatar the last airbender #I dont feel bad about using regular atla tags because I dont think anyone likes this movie #I know the comparison image is blurry dont @ me #long rant

Love in the air is out!

Alright I'm full of sugar, let's get into this. Starting with characters.

Rain- he's cute, I've always liked the slightly air-headed character completely unaware that in a few ep he will be getting railed by the very man he is complaining about/ crushing on. Oh irony you beautiful devil.

Payu (or phayu?) - horny much? hot, talented and he knows it. Ugh, I do love a good asshole from time to time. The whole neck kissing...I mean...I've heard of the dumpster fire TTTS was so I just hope we don't end up in that territory and I can chuck this up as some in poor taste "teasing"

BUT

Hate to say it...that cheek kiss was cute, they've got some solid chemistry.

Sky- what's it like to be the favorite of the gods sir. Georgous and sass to match🤧 I'm so ready to watch him put prapai in his place and make that man beg for it. I think I'll like their dynamic a lot. I also hope he falls head over heels with mister hot, rich and possibly a-hole. Cuz clearly a-holes are my kink not surprised 😔

Prapai- not enough of him so far to get a good read but hot, rich and he knows it. Asshole with a heart of gold trope? Possibly.

As for plot so far, I like that rain has a big fat homo crush on a guy that helped him fix his car once, cuz same. I don't however like the "make him fall for me in 30 days to...make the girl he likes jealous (?) " not sure if I interpreted the trailer wrong but, unessasary. And really all he has to do is keep having meet cutes with payu who clearly is into the annoying but endearing types.

The music was...fun. Idk if this is the ADHD speaking but at times ide block out the music till the end of the scene and be like "huh was that background music always there?"

The cinematography is better than I expected...tho, that "chase scene" had an unnecessary slow motion shot and it's all I can think about😂

All in all I'm definitely going to keep watching, it's cute and the actors are doing a pretty good job. I've also watched the video of them getting their hair styled and dyed for their roles and their variety (?) show. They are all very cute.

THINGS THAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT MY FELLOW WRITERS

Thank you for the tag @lewdisescariot

I tag: @angelosearch @beaubambabey and anyone who wants to participate!

Last book I read: “Merrick" by Anne Rice (i have not finished, it is a slog, I'll finish it eventually), a book chronicling the works of Boticelli, "Go Ask Ogre," I'm in the process of reading "The Rebel" by Camus for the fifth time.

Greatest literary inspirations: John Keats, my former spoken word mentor and activist Jared Paul, William Blake, Anne Rice, Jose Saramago, Albert Camus, insert any 18th and 19th century gothic horror writer here.

Things in my current fandom I want to read but I don't want to write: mutually toxic bloodweave, disgustingly toxic bloodweave, mutually obsessive and manipulative toxic bloodweave, i need them to be their worst selves, i need them to fuck nasty, i need them to take advantage of each other (not sexually but also sexually with consent or begrudging consent to get what they want DO YOU SEE THE VISION)

Things in my current fandoms I want to write but I think nobody would be interested in them but me: Let's focus on bg3. Disgustingly violent, manipulative psychosexual vellioth/cazador. Utter monsters. Twisted power hungry fiends destroying each other where love is too kind, obsession is too shallow, hatred is too soft. Modern aus of them being awful, wretched creatures. Canon compliant awful, wretched creatures. Dead dove do not eat, would get me ostracized, self indulgent horrors.

Modern aus of Astarion being a mess and a menace in every way possible. Everything is wrong with him. He lives with Shadowheart, I need them to be perpetual roommates, she's the only thing keeping him from complete self destruction. His coping skills are atrocious, he cannot be fixed, no one knows how he isn't dead yet. Gale is sometimes moderately better if he's there, they cannot fix each other, there is no magic happy ending. Nobody dies, but they probably should. It doesn't necessarily start as a dumpster fire. It may creep up on you until it's too late and the sunk-cost fallacy has set in. Surprise, it's trauma! It's not pretty trauma! It's not "love can save you" trauma!

Also: long, lyrical canon compliant (mostly) pieces of everyone's suffering, of redemption and damnation, of character studies, of heartwrenching beauty in the tragic fates they cannot escape - they never wanted, leitmotifs in phrasing, a chorus of chosen words, the agony of everything, the love they seek, endless run on sentences, unyielding prose, allegories, their characters boiled down to fever dreams. Symbolic, headspinning, pitiful, reverent, songs that aren't songs, poems that aren't poems, stories that tell themselves yet say nothing without scrutiny, you will leave in awe and madness and hell and hope. Slant rhymes everywhere. It's accidental, it's intentional, it's everything everywhere nowhere at once, it's a spiral, it's linear until it isn't. GOD.

You can recognise my writing by: Please see the above third paragraph.

My most controversial take (current fandom): This answer from my dear friend carries over - "You aren’t better than anyone for hating their favorite character or how they love them. Just let people live."

90% of the Astarion headcanons I see convince me we have not played the same game. He does not become a better person, he is better to you. Ascending him does not remove my sense of irl morality. You're thinking of Wyll, everything you project onto him is a part of Wyll. Astarion is an awful person, he's a mess, he's full of bitter hatred, he needs to kill, he wants everyone to suffer, I love him. Cowards.

Cazador is SO FUCKABLE. He's a horrid, monstrous, contemptible, vile, wicked creature and while i cannot fix him, I can indulge in hedonistic blood filled psychosexual madness and honestly that's close enough for me. Larian, please let him rail me. Cazador romance WHEN. Self preservation? WRONG. Dancing with death for a hellsent vampire.

Top three favourite tropes: "i hate you, i need you." They are suffering, but they are suffering together. "You are so far past saving, yet i will not leave." Bonus: psychosexual obsession, have you figured this out yet, have i made it clear, are we on the same page. DO YOU SEE THE VISION.

What’s your current writing mood (10 – super motivated and churning out words like crazy, 0 – in a complete rut): it's 10, but chronic fatigue/where do i start with this and how does it end, it has to end eventually, I GUESS.

We're working on it.

Share a fandom frustration: As per my last email, refer to the astarion hot take.

[Interior: A dimly lit bedroom set with a tacky desk and a worn-out armchair. The host, a middle-aged man with a mischievous glint in his eye, sits behind the desk, adjusting his tie. The camera zooms in as he leans forward with a smirk.]

Host: Hello my Sluts, whores, and asexual boars! Welcome to my shitty talk show, where we dive deep into the cesspool of absurdity that is our world. I'm your host, the biggest asshole you’ll ever meet! Well maybe other than your mother in law, Let's jump right into today's dumpster fire of news, shall we?

[Opening theme music plays as the camera cuts to the host, who leans back in his chair with a devilish grin, adjusting his tie and picking up a tacky #1 host mug.]

Host: Our first tale of debauchery involves none other than the prince of the underworld himself, running off with a mortal cowboy enthusiast. Looks like Hell just got a little hotter, folks. Or maybe a bit colder depending on Hades reaction!

[Cut to a mock news graphic displaying a fiery background with the words "Hades' Hoedown: Prince Runs Wild!" before transitioning to the next segment.]

Host: Next up, we have a story that's sure to tickle your funny bone and maybe even your prostate if you're into that sort of thing. A teenager with blue hair and pronouns has become absolutely obsessed with a new anime character. Teenagers really do, scare the shit out of me. Let's hope they don't take their devotion to the next level and start another fanfiction harem.

[The camera pans to the host, who chuckles painfully, staring off into the great abyss before moving on to the next segment.]

Host: Now, for a word from our sponsors. Are you tired of listening to the incessant drivel of idiots who dare to speak in your presence? Introducing the Tommy Gun, specifically designed to shut people up when they piss you off. It's like music to my ears... or rather, the absence of music. Get yours today for only 400,000G!

[Cut to a fake commercial featuring a familiar boston man in a baseball cap wielding a Tommy Gun with a silencer, shooting it at obnoxious people who suddenly fall silent.]

Host: Ah, capitalism at its finest, folks. Now, let's move on to a story that'll shock you faster than a car battery to the nipples. A teenage boy with minor electrical abilities finds himself in a bar fight over war veteran discourse. Talk about shock therapy gone wrong! Witnesses say that it escalated from a drunken hypothetical conversation, to this loser going off and trauma dumping about shit nobody cares about! Gotta love that stereotypical depressed aggressive man trope!

[The camera zooms in on the host, who raises an eyebrow suggestively.]

Host: Looks like someone got their wires crossed, but hey, at least he'll have a shocking story to tell his cellmates.

[Finally, the host leans forward, his eyes visibly pained, looking at an obviously poorly written script as he prepares for the last segment.]

Host: And now, for our grand finale, a tale so absurd it'll make you question your own sanity. Picture this: a nun, a rabbi, and a dominatrix walk into a bar... Well, you can fill in the rest. Let's just say it involves a rubber duck, a bottle of lube, and a restraining order. Ah, the joys of living in a world where anything can happen and usually does.. okay who the hell wrote this?

[The camera pans out as the host rubs his temple, tired from attempting to make the poorly written news article into anything mildly interesting.]

Host: What an uneventful day it was! Gods this was painful, but oh so fun! Let’s see how long it takes for this to be taken off the air, I’m going for a week! Jokes aside, I’ll be here to make you awkwardly laugh at my unfunny jokes next week!

i don't post about autistic parenting enough

I kind of figured, when our kid was born almost seven years ago, that I would post MASSIVE amounts here. Because that's what I did with my first kid, only on Livejournal. I didn't want to bore my (universally childless, we were 20) friends with constantly going on and on about the smol child I was coparenting, so I infodumped on LJ whenever I felt the need to.

But it was RIGHT in the peak of the ace discourse. (Happy uhhhh seventh anniversary of the shitstorm, everybody!!!)

And I was very terrified that if I even mentioned that we were about to have a baby, someone would doxx me and make false reports to CPS. Or threaten to, or claim they had.

Or even that they'd just screenshot and make a huge deal about it; that there would be hundreds of people on here gleefully faux-raging and faux-bemoaning me having a child because I was one of the people they'd targeted with the Fake Ace/Aro/Inclusionist Blocklist In Which Everyone's Accused Of Being Pedophiles.

Ok you know what, this is not a fun post to share a fun kid story on. I'm just gonna let this one be about the garbage dumpster fire that was 2017, and make an autistic parenting post separately.

In which case, I can go ahead and put back the story about why I remember that it's the seventh anniversary of the shitstorm! (Or was, three days ago.)

It started on Feb 18, 2017, for me.

I mainly remember this because it was my abusive dad's birthday. And his godawful stepdaughter-in-law chose that day to tell him that I was telling people, aka his stepchildren who had kids, not to let their kids sleep over because he was an abuser.

God almighty, she's a piece of work. This was AFTER she insisted on interrogating me, over the phone, about why I was saying he had sexually abused me, whether I really remembered it, what I remembered, et cetera. Because she had been "falsely accused" of sexually abusing a kid she babysat for, as a teenager.

Her story about it does not hang together very well - as you might imagine. It didn't make a lot of sense to me at the time, and I wasn't about to try to have a real conversation with her about it. I barely knew her.

Essentially, as I recall it, the kid had made some claims to his parents about her doing something to him, one night, that she swore never happened, and -- according to her -- the police talked to him and could immediately see that nothing had happened, yet somehow also, this made the news and was a big deal and ruined her life and her family had to move.

Given that my dad swears he never abused me, yet also does not understand sexual boundaries with others even as an adult and doesn't have the concept that he can harm people by violating those boundaries, I am skeptical of her tale. I think that it is absolutely and entirely possible for someone in that specific state to harm a child without thinking that what they're doing is wrong.

For anyone who's reading this in a cold sweat, terrified that they could abuse a child without meaning to: see, the thing is that you care. My dad, ultimately, does not care.

He doesn't WANT to hurt a child. But you know what's even more important to him than not behaving in a way that might harm the kiddies? Not having to accept that anything he does could ever be harmful.

You do not have that problem. The fact that you are even worrying about this proves that. My dad, in contrast, puts all his energies not into worrying about it, but into pretending it's not there.

But I made all the supportive noises, tried to reassure her that I was not trying to ruin my dad's life or something, and that I was describing things in good faith. And tried desperately to get out of the conversation I did not want to have, with the half-stepsister-in-law I barely knew, who had just had her second kid. While also giving her many ways she could protect her kids without, like, having to even believe me, and certainly without having to talk to him about it.

hahahaha yeah that didn't work.

Where my dad is motivated by denial, Amy is motivated by spite. So she told him, on his birthday. And my dad, the pure fool, texted me and accused me of having ruined his birthday.

Like bro. I'm just chilling at home. AMY ruined your birthday.

And iirc, it was that same day that someone jumped in my face claiming i was a """"pedophile"""" """"apologist.""""" the 2017 version of "groomer" i guess. honestly it's kinda impressive or something -- at the time I was like, "why are they reviving the 1980s arguments of the religious right??" but IN FACT THEY WERE JUST A COUPLE YEARS AHEAD OF THE CURVE!

makes me wonder if we could predict other far-right moves by watching these dynamics, or whether it was just a flash in the pan.

Howdy! Can I request a platonic headcanon between a teen!s/o and Matt Murdock? Basically this teen likes doing parkour late at night despite the dangers, but one night they ended up in a wrong place and wrong time when they witness some kind of mafia movement and also Daredevil was there as well. And basically this becames a whole survival game of cat and mouse, the plot I'll gave it to you cause I'm not good in imagining one, if you can make this if is not a bother that is. Thank you for reading this though!

Hardcore Parkour

Summary : One night during your usual parkour adventures, you see something that you didn't expect to see. Warnings : None that I can think of :) Notes : This is such a fun idea, I love it! Thank you for requesting it! I did write it kinda late at night and in one go because i wanted to get this out as soon as i could for you, so excuse any typos or anything of the sort!

Ever since you saw the trends of parkour online, you were immediately hooked. You studied the videos and taught yourself how to do it. You started off just on the roof of your aunt's apartment building. Simple flips and jumps and such.

As you improved more and more, you ventured off into your neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen. It started with going to your neighboring rooftops then to the alleyways between buildings as well. Soon enough, you were jumping from building to building, alley to alley. You'd say you were pretty good at parkour, matching the professionals in the videos almost.

But with school and responsibilities and your overbearing aunt, you could only parkour at night. Or at least, parkour around Hell's Kitchen at night.

You knew it was dangerous. You had heard about the crazy high crime rates in Hell's Kitchen and you heard about Daredevil, but you didn't really care. The chance of you running into Daredevil and crime is so small.

Though, it's still a chance.

"I'll be back soon, love ya!" You called as you left your aunt's apartment.

"Be safe!" You heard your aunt call back as you closed the door.

You smiled before running up to the roof top. The sun was set and the nightlife of Hell's Kitchen had emerged. You zipped up your hoodie and made sure your shoes were tied. With a running start, you jumped to the next building over with a flip.

You continued your way down the block then jumped down some fire escapes to get into the alleyway system. You jogged around to the next block and started to climb up the side of the building until you heard something.

It was muffled so you crept closer, carefully moving against the brick wall until you were at it's corner.

"L-listen I can p-pay you back! J-just give me-"

"You've had enough time, pal. We've given you three extensions and that wasn't enough."

Loan sharks, praying on an innocent person. It made you sick to think that people would harm others just for money, or even for fun.

"I think you pay us back now or you can pay with something a little more," the man paused and guns clicking echoed through the alleyway, "vauable."

You gasped as you peered around the corner, only to realize how loud it was. You clamped your hand over your mouth.

"What was that?"

"Someone was watching us, sir."

"Don't just stand there, go find them!"

You took off running with the loan sharks on your tail. You ran through the system, the maze of alleyways in hopes you could lose them. You ran into a dead end, or what anyone else would see as a dead end.

The tall fence was easily a foot taller than you. Luckily, there was a dumpster beside it so you backed up a few steps. You ran and jumped up on the dumpster before jumping over the fence. The loansharks turned the corner as soon as you got over the fence.

You stopped to listen to make sure they wouldn't follow you. Instead a thud followed by groans and grunts came from over the fence. You waited, and quiet fell upon the alley way. You watched as a figure jumped over the fence just like you did. But you recognized the suit.

Daredevil.

"Oh my god," you muttered.

"Kid-"

You didn't even give him the chance to speak before running away. He groaned and followed you. You ran around back to your block and to a random fire escape. He kept following you, but he paused as you scaled the building. When you reached the top, you flipped on to it.

He kept an ear on you as he climbed up another fire escape in hopes of catching you off guard. He followed the sound of you quick steps and jumps as you went from building to building.

Finally, he reached the top of the building he was climbing. He tilted his head to the side before jumping to the building next to him.

You thought you had lost Daredevil as you jumped to your apartment building. That was until he jumped over and tackled you.

You wiggled out of his protective grip but instead of running away again, you stood there. "Why are you following me?" You asked.

"Because you're a kid out, jumping around the streets at night! Do you understand how dangerous that is?" He replied, stepping closer.

"What are you, my dad? I don't need someone watching over me as I do what I want!"

"You got chased down by loan sharks tonight! They had guns, they could've killed you."

"But they didn't," you answered, sticking your hands in your pockets. You turned and walked to the door that led inside, but he grabbed your arm and spun you around.

"You need to be safer. I don't care if you keep jumping around, but not when there are criminals walking aorund," he said, your arm still in your grip.

"Let me go, dude. I'm not some little kid who needs a babysitter!"

You pulled your arm away from him and opened the door.

"Just be safe, okay?"

"Sure thing, Mr. Daredevil," you answered, with a fake little salute. You closed the door behind you and walked down to your aunt's apartment. You opened the door and walked in.

"How was your run, honey?" You aunt asked as you locked the door behind you.

"It was fine. I ran into this weird guy though," you said as you took off your hoodie and walked to your room.

"He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No, auntie, he didn't do anything. He was wearing a stupid costume though."

I finally got bg3 and now i can draw for it without feeling like a fake fan :D so some first thoughts are in order I think.

1. I'm head over heels for gale. I really thought I'd be an astarion or a karlach kinda gal, and don't get me wrong, i am, but I fell in love with gale the moment I pulled him out of the portal and he immediately started on a rant giving me all the tadpole lore he had available.

2. I cried over how frickin sweet and compassionate karlach is. *spoilers* I don't remember her exact words, but when I told her about how gales ex wants him to blow himself up for her "forgiveness" karlach was so aggressively compassionate, saying something along the lines of "any God who tells you to blow yourself up, is no God worth worshipping" and I love her so so so much, for her compassionate wisdom and for who she is as a person.

3. The music is actually frickin incredible. I hadn't heard any of the music before I bought the game, I assumed it was good because games like that usually have a big emphasis on music, but goodness gracious, I wasn't ready for it to knock my socks off like that. genuinely breathtaking.

4. I don't like to swear, but fuck death shepherds. they are the most obnoxious freaks I've ever had the displeasure of coming across, I hope they step on Legos and trip into the fiery pits of hell, where they'll be forced to fight their own kind without the use of their own magic.

5. Scratch is the best boy. I would die for him.

6. I don't want to hate on anyone's choices in favorite characters, but I cannot stand shadowheart. I'll probably be eating my words once I get to know her better, but I sincerely wish she'd shut up about her goddess. I'm currently in the middle of doing shar's gauntlet, and she keeps bringing up the fact that she was "meant to be here", and that "shar must favor her somehow". Like, bestie... that can't possibly be a good thing. From my understanding, most of the gods in this game are actually trash, like dumpster fire levels of horrid. Like mystra asking gale to kill himself for her forgiveness, or whatever tf the absolute is, or shar taking peoples memories and lives if they stay in her shadow realm without a light source for too long. And I don't want to victim blame or anything. I think she mentioned she was raised in the church, so I imagine all this was forced into her head from a very young age. It just wears on me a little, that's all.

7. Everyone wants to get with me EXCEPT gale. I love him to bits, but man he's a challenge to romance ((and i would like to say, i really do love the platonic love my tav and gale have for each other, it's really sweet)). Shadow heart invited me to drink with her at the party, I ended up having to load a save because I'm terrible at rejection and I didn't want to romance her.

Next, I went to camp and the game immediately forced me into a dance cutscene with wyll, I once again had to load a save because I'm terrified of rejection. And gale is just like "wow, you're such a good friend :))" and I'm more than happy to be his friend, don't get me wrong. I just want to cuddle my wizard under the stars while we talk about our favorite interests, is that so much to ask?

But over all, this game is incredible. I've been playing nonstop for the last three days or so, it's really been a joy. Now I just need to figure out how to draw all of my favorite characters so I can post a bunch of scribbles >:))

#baldurs gate #bg3 #long post #im sorry if i misspelled anyones names or if i got them wrong all together #rant post #i genuinely love this game

I said i was going to so here i go... WHAT ARE YOUR ISAACTOR HEADCANONS ? EMPTY YOUR BAG. TELL ME EVERYTHING !!

Please. 👉👈

The beauty of Isaactor is that we know next to nothing about their relationship in canon, and I've seen the most different of takes from other fans - rivals, close friends, boyfriends, fuckbuddies, abusive... and for each of them I've nodded and thought "yep, this makes perfect sense" lmao, canon doesn't tether me so I was free to consider every interpretation

So my indecisive ass blended every take together for my headcanons 😂

(but speaking of canon, I feel the need to post this one, small, singular glimpse of PtR because I can't get over it, Hector looks so done with everything, c'mon man Isaac was trying to be nice... in his own way :P)

That Isaac had a thing for Hector is 100% canon and I will die on this hill :P how could anyone resist his pretty silver hair? But as for Hector, I think there was the chance for him to like Isaac back. I think that, at his best, Isaac was fun to be around, he made Hector laugh, they were up to some shenanigans in the castle like racing on their Innocent Devils :P He also was his senpai, and I mean it in the real, untranslatable sense of the word - he's a little older than Hector, he started studying dark arts before him, so what if he taught him some tricks? What if Hector at first admired Isaac too? What if there was a time where Isaac was simply fond of Hector and proud of his progress, without his jealousy getting in the way? :)

And this is small, but... what if Hector never fell into the pit of "all humans suck" precisely because he met Isaac, and that for him was the proof that some humans were good after all? :')

I don't think they loved each other though, not in a deep, wholesome way. I'm going with MF's idea that they met as teens, and they were both messed up teens who had no idea what love was* because they were deprived of it, bitter and shunned, so while they liked each other and had fun together, they just kinda... clung together because they had nothing else, and had no idea of what they were doing. They were each other's firsts in everything, even friends, with no healthy reference lol. And turns out that, just because you can bond over the world hating you both, doesn't mean that you have compatible personalities.

(*tbf, at least Isaac had Julia, which is its own can of worms and another relationship brimming with potential for headcanons. I personally think that Isaac's family situation was at the very least a bit better than Hector's: Mr. Laforeze was a sorcerer himself so Isaac's powers didn't scare him, Julia just loved her big bro, and Isaac did his best to protect her. But I also think that he was treated much, much worse by the village he lived in, because you don't proudly state that you turned your back against God as a literal child without something breaking you... let's just say that according to some legends, strigoi have red hair and blue eyes :^) )

Admittedly, I'm also stealing a couple of pages from N!Hector, because not everything about him is a dumpster fire. There's nothing wrong, for example, with the idea that when he was younger, Hector used to be more passive - in the manga's flashback he comes off as a very shy, scared boy, most likely traumatized by his mother and the church burning because of him. When you're made to feel like you shouldn't have even been born, how much self esteem are you bound to have? So I think Isaac always had the stronger, more dominant personality (yes I'm saying that the man with a collar is dominant, he's a complicated guy [cit.]), and he managed to rope Hector into everything he wanted to do, and everything was on his terms. I don't see Isaac as a deliberate manipulator, let alone abusive, just that he put himself in charge (something something compensating for his perceived inferiority and needing to be seen as important something) and Hector never stopped him because he trusted Isaac too much.

And then Lisa was killed.

Imagine the huge shift that this brought in Castlevania. Dracula snapped and waged war on humanity. This, among other things, meant that the Devil Forgemasters were now tasked to create huge armies of demons, to then send to villages to be destroyed.

Imagine Hector and Isaac being overworked to death, stressed, and worried for Dracula's state. Isaac also has to face the facts that he's not quite as good as Hector, he can't keep up as easily, and Dracula already favores the other one, and it drives him mad. He wants that recognition too, he's afraid that he might be deemed useless, and if he's useless, what is he good for? Dracula is angry, demanding, merciless, he won't forgive any mistake because this war is too important to him, Isaac always has to be at his best and can't afford to slip up - so he doubles and triples down and twists himself to be as loyal and efficient as he can possibly be, compensating his flaws in Devil Forging with sheer, mindless cruelty to please his Master in any way he can. He even goes so far as to ask to be tattooed to really commit! I interpret Isaac as someone who doesn't want to think, he only wants to obey and belong to someone who deserves it.

Hector, in his position as the golden child, had the time to actually think about what he was doing. Again taking some inspiration from N!Hector, I imagine he had little empathy for humans, but not to the point of wanting all of them dead: he was probably uncomfortable with the requests of killing everyone, but at first he went along, because well, what else could he do? And he could vaguely understand why Dracula was so enraged. But, while Isaac really worshipped the very ground Dracula walked on and justified anything with "it's what my Lord wants and my purpose in life is to obey Him", Hector always saw his servitude to Dracula in a more distant way, as in, "I wanted power, you gave me that power, and to thank you I am willing to use it for you". So his uncomfortableness grew into something heavier to bear... guilt for the innocents he was killing, resentment for doing something he didn't want, a growing sense of self-worth, the realization that, no matter how many times he repeated that he did not belong to the human world (as per the Japanese version of the Devil Forging formula), he really was still as much human as the creatures Dracula so despised.

(a bit of a side note, I think Isaac also took Lisa's execution more personally because of his background as a sorcerer. Julia herself was hunted because of her nature as a witch, and who knows if they also went through something similar during their childhood? So I imagine he was more than glad to punish the "humans" for their irrational hatred against witches, while Hector was more detatched)

And what does this have to do with Hector and Isaac's relationship? Well, we know that Hector tried to involve Isaac in his morality crisis, and he was shut down without any hope for discussion. Isaac didn't want to think about that, he had other things to worry about. He was also starting to feel quite resentful about Hector, always better than him no matter how hard he tried - I think that the two started to argue pretty much everyday because Isaac kept snapping over everything and Hector was growing a spine. Jealousy is a bitch and can turn you into a nasty person :\ and I like to think that Hector started to look down on Isaac for his mindless devotion, which he couldn’t comprehend. To make matters worse, Hector didn't really have anyone else to confide in... well, there was Alucard, but I doubt that Alucard wanted much to do with two humans stomping all over his mother's wishes :\

(also personally i am a huge, huge slut for the idea that they'd still keep the physical part of their relationship because they lowkey miss each other but they're both too much prideful assholes to talk about it ;) at least, until Hector grew tired and started to feel used...)

By the end, Hector has had enough of Isaac's shit. He lost the one person he thought that could understand him, he wants to run away, he wants to be free, because he has realized his own worth - I love that part in the MF manga where he looks down on Isaac and makes fun of him for being a pawn, I need more of Hector being a condescending little shit :) Part of him still wished he could ask Isaac to run away with him, but he knew that he simply couldn't, Isaac has put Dracula over him, he'd rat him out, or he'd kill him with his own hands. So he thinks "fuck it", and leaves as soon as he can in secret, maybe even thinking that Isaac would be happy to not have the competition anymore. He underestimated how much being abandoned would hurt Isaac, though.

And that's how they became the worsties we know and love <3

As a bonus point, I like to think that the reason Isaac becomes so hyperobsessed with Hector but barely spares a thought about Trevor, the one who materially went and killed Dracula, is precisely because the Curse took his feelings and his deep hurt and amplified them up to 11, to the point that Isaac really couldn't think about anything else for 3 whole years :)

(another idea i'm a huge slut for is Hector living with Rosaly, actually experiencing love for the first time in his life, and breaking down because now he's realizing that what he had with Isaac wasn't even remotely the same thing and regretting ever stepping foot into Castlevania and wasting half of his life. And yet, at the same time, he grieves for Isaac because he had been such an important part of his life. My man has a lot of adjustment to do :( )

This ended up being a poutpourri of every headcanon I have of what happened pre-C3, but it's just. I have so many thoughts about my boys and they deserve more love <3

#castlevania #isaactor #hector castlevania #isaac laforeze #you asked for headcanons and i hope this was satisfactory for you :)#talking about them makes me happy so thanks for the opportunity fhdsjkfhkashf

Srry for the very heated. Very real. Very raw. And cery fucking angry vent below. Im sick of this shit in the mortal kombat "fandom" on here.

Cw: vent. Im Really fucking angry.

gonna ignore the trash heap dumpster fire that is the mortal kombat fandom and write my own mk stuff.

Thats the only mk that exists. The mk in my brain n heart.

Sorry not sorry but mk sucks now. Ed boon legitimately doesn't know or care to listen to the real fans. (He had the audacity to basically say street fighter was outdated when he hadn't done anything worth a lick of fucking damn in 30yrs that was decent and didn't backtrack on. Gameplay and story. Fuck off ed boon you boomer pathetic ass peice of trash. Go suck a fat dick n die. Fr.)

Oh yeah and called street fighter anime like when wtf is he doing making all the characters look so damn young like that sus af boon. Real sus.

Nrs has their egos so far up their asses. And so do these new "fans" who don't bother to care because they wanna just fuck a fictional character. (Dont get me wrong. I self ship,i love the characters too. But i actually have a working brain to know. There is more going on then whatever the fuck im oogling at you twats! Like fucking stop looking at your pathetic blorbos for five fucking seconds and look at the bigger picture here! Thirsty ass bitches. God damn. )

So yeah. Any mk stuff from mortal kombat is gonna be my own writing. So nrs can suck it. New fans can suck it and fucking die in a dumpster fire. They can kiss my whole asscheek.

Fucking ruined scorpion. They will fucking pay for that. Fucked over everything and everyone.

Kung lao. Got fucking nerfed....AGAIN!

Raiden reduced to bitch boi.

Liu kang need a say more?!

Shang tsung. A pathetic welp. Wtaf?! Also why tf is kronika back?! That absolutely makes no sense. Period. Yup. As i suspected. They lokified him. The fans are not villain fans unless they look "pretty" enough for them. Grossly making him like a teeny bopper. Like wtaf is wrong with y'all?! Shang tsung isn't supposed to be a fucking babyface. You weirdos!

Shao kahn. A diablo genshin impact villain rip off.

All the women have same face syndrome. Looking like kim k Instagram models. Gross. Like im sorry. They all look gross and dehydrated to me. All the same body types. All "conveniently attractive". Yeah. 30yrs and they still have yet to make a character look "average" or a character with a larger body type,fat character that wasn't a joke character or thrown to the side. Cant ever make the women normal looking. Nope gotta appease the loser men with porn models. And anyone who is a woman who falls for that shit. Thinking its hashtag girlboss doesn't help this. No. What would be. Is actually hiring and PAYING actual real woc models and voice actors to be in your games. But nope.

Nrs is lazy pathetic pos guys. Who just want money.

All the asian guy characters look like they took Lewis tans face and copy cut pasted it. Fr. They dont look good. At all. They do not look like they have any personality. Period.

Johnny is the only one that is different. Ofc the only white guy is done decent. Because they cant of course fuck up their precious little white dude to project their insecurities on. (Course they did fuck him up because everything thqt made johnny special is now gone. He just some douche who looks like jc)

The shokan are tiny af. Pathetic. Weak. Ugh.

And they wanna disguise this horseshit as something groundbreaking when it's not really. Most fans are not gonna pay and arm n a leg for a shitty game that you guys legit fucking ruined integral lore to.

All hiding it behind "oh but its a new world" no honey its a entirely new game Franchise only using mortal kombat in name brand alone.

Its not even mortal kombat anymore.

ITS SOME PATHETIC ASS DUDES FANFIC FROM A DC FANS BASEMENT ON WATTPAD.

So yeah im pissed.

So anything from me. Mortal kombat related.

Will be from my own writing.

Until nrs can actually pull their heads out their ass and clean house.

I wont be buying anything official from them. Like merch n games. They can suck it. All movies will be pirated. Etc.

I will play the shit i have,and watch and stick to the 95 movie n be done with it.

Fucking hell. They ruined scorpion!

Im just pissed.

#hater can literally die mad #vent #admin is pissed #mortal kombat

Character bingo: Goemon and Spamton

Okay first off I'd like to preface this by saying these two interacting would be THE funniest duo of all time and what's even better is that there's absolutely nothing in the Lupin III verse that would preclude Spamton from being there. Like a used car salesman who was cursed to be a horrible little puppet and now spends his days trying to convince people to help him steal a robotic body that will allow him to transcend and become God? Sounds only 65% as weird as most plotlines on the show tbh.

THAT SAID:

For Mr. Goemon Ishikawa XIII:

I'm the only one who knows anything about them: MODERN WRITERS STOP FUCKING UP HIS CHARACTER CHALLENGE! Let him be arrogant and snarky and self-important and stubborn and a really bad samurai who only convinces his friends that he's a Great Samurai because he can do fancy sword tricks and literally none of them know what a samurai is! Let him be funny and sometimes have the brain cell but also sometimes very NOT! Let him be a bastard who sells out his friends for one corn chip while proclaiming he'd never do such a thing and then turning around and walking through the fires of hell for them just to keep them guessing! Let him be good at video games! Come on!

pathetic wet cat of a man: He hangs out with Lupin and Jigen so he seems the least Wet Cat by comparison but make no mistake. He is a Wet Cat. In his soul

they could've been such a great character handled differently: This is true of every Lupin character in some way though and is really YMMV depending on which installment you're watching etc.

they have done nothing wrong, ever, in their life: (JOKE) I don't like when people have this Take about him in earnest but if you say it ironically it's very funny. He should be allowed to steal and vandalize and kill. As a treat <3

Autism™ : Diagnosing everyone I've done so far with this as is right and proper

will somebody give them a fucking hug etc: the answer is yes and he will get one when he gets home :) His family loves him! I love that <3

they could pour soup in my lap: UNTOUCHABLY cool guy even if he's secretly a Huge Dork

based: YES

There's nothing going on behind those eyes <3: He joined the clown brigade! He knew what he was getting into!

For Mr. Spamton G. Spamton:

If I Met Them I'd Beat Them Up (affectionate): And I wouldn't pay him for it either! Flinging him into the core of the sun as we speak! Get Fuckt Puppet Boy!

Pathetic Wet Cat: He thinks he's hot shit but he is in fact THE most Pathetic Wet Cat I think we've met on the game to date. And we've met ROUXLS.

Anti-Blorb. Thinking of him constantly and I hate it: Fuck! He got into my brain! Horrid little man! But yeah I REALLY like to Rotate this guy. Lots to Unpack there.

AGSADHSJHGDSGFJDHGFDJ etc: You know how it is

Autism™: He sure does

Genuinely what the fuck: ~Me, when he popped out of that fucking dumpster for the first time

Will somebody please give them a hug: In Spite of Everything I do actually want him to experience self-acceptance, affection, inner peace etc. I mean this guy has never really had any approval in his whole LIFE except when he was being manipulated by an outside force! People only love him when he's not in control of himself! The minute he steps back and the mask comes off he's rejected and discarded! It's horrible!

there's nothing going on behind those eyes <3: AGAIN he thinks he is a Brilliant Manipulator but the deadass ONLY reason anyone helps him is out of A). Morbid Curiosity or B). Pity and literally no other reason like he is SO blatant about his Evil Plans it's very funny

I mean technically it worked though! But not for the reasons HE thinks dgshgdjfgjdfgdjfhd
