i think that damijon 'pick your ship' poll is so funny bc the tags are just this

damijon.shipper: #im so proud of us! look how far we've made it!

other-person: #i dont even like the other ship #i just want damijon to lose #anyone who ships damijon should be cancelled

#sophia rants #it's so funny and for what #they rlly said 'i am more morally correct than you bc i dont like this ship that i dont understand' #you dont need a reason to not like a ship. you dont need to demonize it. just fucking scroll. #whatever #anyway #damijon my loves #damijon #jondami #'i dont like it so therefore the moral explanation is that no one should like it.' THEY ARE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. MOVE ON.

hc that … rickys eyes are green which is why jane wabted green eyes.. cause he was good to her so she wants green eyes to be good like him.. maybe..

#rtc #ride the cyclone #jane doe rtc #ricky potts #spacedolls #could be ship or platonic idk #i am completely influenced by that one post abt jane wanting to be friends with constance because she was labeled as nice #and therefore assumed she wanted to be friends with her and would be good to her #idk jane making very blunt conclusions about everything is very dear to my heart cause like. she doesnt KNOW anything #rtcrot

My superpower is, anytime a piece of media has two women, I ship them together in a feral, sapphic, way.

Only one woman on an otherwise male dominated show? Welp, one of those characters is trans now. I ship it, it's sapphic now.

A female character from an early season never even met the female character of late seasons? Too bad. I ship them too.

If two women exist in a show or movie, I will definitely ship it.

#Sapphic #lesbians #fandom culture #I ship therefore I am #About me 2k23

You’ve heard of OTPs. Get ready for:

OTFs.

That moment when you are reading/watching something and, yeah, there’s a ship that’s pretty nice, but then something happens and you press your hands to your face and whisper into your fingers, half-annoyance, half-affection, “Oh These Fuckers,” and you know there is no point struggling, you are completely gone and this ship will own you forever and you can’t even be all that mad about it. It’s the fan’s equivalent of the ship fic moment of “Oh. Oh.” that we all adore. The moment we are all lost to the grips of a new ship.

The OTF, Oh-These-Fuckers. the gentlest pain in the world.

SO WITH THAT HM POST REBLOGGED FROM @empatheticsadist490

I FOUND ABOUT THE HATBOX GHOST HAVING A BABY/TODDLER GHOST FOR SON FIGURE IN THE DISNEY XD STOP MOTION HALLOWEEN SHORTS WHO HAPPILY HELPS HIM HAUNT MORTALS AND COUNTS AS HIS FAMILY GOING TO HIM WHEN ASKED WHERE IS HIS FAMILY

AND THE 2ND TIME HE APPEARS IT IS TO HELP HIM SCARE AWAY MORTALS AGAIN AND IT'S ABOUT FINDING "THE BRIDE'S RING" (I KNOW DISNEY TRYING TO ERASE EMILY FOR HAVING EVER EXISTED THEY PROBABLY MEAN CONSTANCE BUT FUCK THAT)

SO

AS YOU GUYS KNOW I AM HUGE HEARTBOX SHIPPER AND I HAVE A SAD HC THEY REGRETTED TO HAVE DIED WITHOUT EVER HAVING CHILDREN AND MOTHER'S AND FATHER'S DAYS DEPRESS THEM

BOTH UNAWARE THAT SHE DIED 2 WEEKS PREGNANT HENCE WHY SHE HAS BEEN SICK ON HER WEDDING DAY AND IS MORE EXCITABLE AND HUNGRY NOW AS A GHOST AND SO HAS BEEN A PREGNANT GHOST FOR 150+ YEARS, A CRUEL IRONY

AND EVEN IF EVENTUALLY BECAUSE I FELT BAD FOR THEM I DECIDED THEY WILL FIND OUT LIKE SOMEWHERE IN THE FUTURE AND THANKS TO A SPELL FOUND BY MADAME LEOTA BRING THIS TO DUE DATE AND HAVE THEIR CHILD AT LAST A "GHOSTBORN" (VERY RARE, ONLY POSSIBLE THANKS TO THAT SPELL FOR GHOSTS WHO DIED PREGNANT TO ALLOW THE PHANTOM EMBRYO TO DEVELOP AND BE GIVEN BIRTH TO NORMALLY) DAUGHTER NAMED BELLE PACE

WHAT IF IN THE MEANTIME THEY GOT TO EXPEFIENCE PARENTHOOD BEFORE THAT PLOT TWIST BECAUSE THEY HAD ADOPTED BABY BOO, AN ORPHANED BABY/TODDLER GHOST ? THAT HE FINALLY FILLED THE HOLE IN THEIR HEART AND HAVE BEEN PARENTS EVER SINCE ? AND BELLE'S BIRTH IN THE FUTURE WILL ONLY MAKE THEM A BIGGER FAMILY THEY NEVER THOUGHT THEY'D EVER HAVE AND NOW AFTERLIFE IS EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL ?

BABY BOO MAY BE THERE ONLY IN THESE DISNEY XD ADS AND COULD COUNT ONLY AS EXISTING IN THE CONTINUITY OF THESE ADS, I AM SO INCORPORATING HIM IN MY OWN FANON CONTINUITY

IT IS TOO CUTE AND THE IDEA OF THEM HUGGING THEIR NEWLY ADOPTED BABY CRYING TEARS OF JOY AFTER DECADES OF HAVING GIVEN UP FUCKING HURTS ME A GOOD WAY

HE IS THEIR BABY, THEIR SON, THEIR CHILD, THEIR PRIDE AND JOY WHO SCARES MORTALS JUST LIKE THEM AND DADDY TAKES HIM OUT IN THE GRAVEYARD AND MOMMY TAUGHT HIM WELL WITH THE CANDELABRA AND NO MATTER HOW HE IS NOT BIOLOGICAL THEY WON'T EVER REPLACE HIM

#I AM SO FUCKING HAPPY FOR FICTIONAL GHOSTS MAN #THEY DESERVE THIS SO MUCH EVEN IF NONE OF THIS IS CANON ANF JUST FROM MY OWN FANON THEREFORE MY OWN FAULT #parents and children #adoptive parents and adoptive children #adoption #family #haunted mansion #emily #original bride #baby boo #hatbox ghost #feels #moi #crossover #disney #disney XD #ads #love is here #sad #i ship it ! #happy #ocs #death #birth #pregnant #spell #reblog #post #tumblr #empatheticsadist490

[Fearne kisses Ashton's head.]

"well that's really hard to steal back."

DAMN ASHTON THAT WAS SMOOTH.

#bells hells is so poly that i don't really ship anyone exclusively #except i am belligerent about Doriax #and therefore can't get into dorian/orym #but like ASHTON AND FEARNE DELIGHT ME SO MUCH #critical role #cr spoilers

[magic-owl]

When shippers make a character into a caricature and lesser than they actually are in order to support their ship and claim that it’s everyone else in the fandom’s fault

#‘x character is a poor teen parent of multiple other teenagers who was the ONLY one who had to mature too fast nobody else only them’ #‘and therefore they MUST be shipped with y character who is the only other character they didn’t have to parent’ #‘and also they have matching traumas’ #like i don’t like any of the ships in this fandom like none of them #but i still cannot believe that one of the biggest ones likes to reduce one of the main characters to #‘underappreciated mistreated teen mom being sexually harassed by one of their children who just needs someone who UNDERSTANDS them’ #‘WHY would you reduce this character to their trauma about x?’ demands fanbase who routinely reduces character to their trauma about x #i’m sure y’all know dang well who i’m vaguing in the tags rn #but like heck am i going to summon the demons to my doorstep #and yes this discourse is DINOSAUR old but due to certain recent events #i can smell the resurgence given how many BRAINLESS takes i’ve seen on my dash recently

Originally I was like haha I'm doing CJ apologia as a fun thought exercise and mostly a joke. Now you people have relegated me to doing "Jack is evil but not for the reasons you think he is" brand apologia that I actually stand by fiercely because apparently some people think that rural aesthetics and being a party boy are part of the bad things about him, when those are the redeeming qualities and the bad things about him are clearly the homophobia and the collaboration with Izzy and by extension the navy, you guys.

#yes i am thinking about that one add on to my Izzy is ed's abuser post where they accused him of wrecking the ship #I know it was almost a year ago but still #the take “shooting bottles off a fence is a violent act and therefore evidence of abuse” will remain in my brain forever #because it's the dumbest take i've ever heard

[angeltism]

angeltism x anon ship name is anontism??? aquanon ????? anonqua ??? i think you should marry all of us

KYAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMGGG THIS MADE ME SMILE ACTUALLY EJDIDJSU . aquanon is a silly name I think /pos . also ooh idk about marriage,,, one of y'all is gonna have to propose for that ehe 🤭

random but I'm curious how many there are of uu ( anons who want me ) . there should be a way to distinguish uu guys from normal anons bc I assume nawt Everybun who's sent me an anon ask lately wants to date moi , that'd be kinda absurd of moi to assume , but I also don't wanna force y'all into using sign-offs or somethin if y'all don't wanna . . :0 but ANYWAYS JFJSJFJF aquanon . could be real some day . who knows ! ^_^

#➳ the fool's mail box #➳ sender; anonymous #since I'm sadly strictly mono if there's multiple crushnonnies (?? where'd that come from idk but we're keeping it at least in this tag) #I'd . y'know . have to ''pick'' i guess . which sucks bc all the lovey asks I've gotten so far r so silly n I'm soso curiousies abt whoever #has sent some in ~ ^o^ #oooh topic jump . adhd . bear w me #but emoji signoffs could lead to more shippy type stuff mwehehehe #since i have an emoji i use for myself ( 🌊 ) n for pairings of moi n somebun else we do stuff likee #🤍🌊 n 🌊🌌 :3 #like ship emoji pairings in stuff like pj.sk . . . . :] #idk silly idea i thought of #again there's no pressure to use sign offs they're optional . they just also generally help with anybun who's coming back here often #esp if they like moi in that way since it's like . . . i know it's somebun I've spoken to before n am therefore a bit less awkward/generic #with how i reply ? but AGAIN LIKE . they're optional . y'all r on anon for a reason n i respect it <33

I'm really glad that Sega has allowed Amy to move out of her harassment phase re: her crush on Sonic, because the way she was written back in the late 90s / 00s with regards to her crush on him is not only uncomfortable and not okay behavior (continuing to push yourself on someone after they've said "no" isn't okay even when you're a girl pushing yourself on a boy), but was also really detrimental to her character. Not only did it give people a negative impression of her (her obsessing over Sonic being her boyfriend / marrying her is remembered more often by casual fans than her actual stories in those games), but it also runs contrary to the fact that Amy has always been a kindhearted, compassionate, empathetic person. We see her compassion and empathy with other characters in those same games (wanting to save Birdie from Gamma, reminding Shadow of his actual promise to Maria, helping Cream and Big find Chocola and Froggy), so to then have her turn right around and completely ignore Sonic's feelings / boundaries because of her crush is just . . . bad. It's a bad look, and bad writing. And I don't hold it against her, any more than I hold instances of Tails having bad writing against him. These are fictional characters, they're beholden to their writers. But it's still not great and I'm really glad that Sega has realized that having Amy harass Sonic isn't funny or cute, and has instead allowed her to treat him like she does the rest of her friends: with the kindness, compassion, and empathy she's known for.

#not rebloggable bc i know how this fandom is & i don't care for the discourse #but i was just rewatching some Heroes cutscenes and y i k e s #Amy being like ''just give up! you're not getting out of marrying me now!'' before Team Rose attacks Team Sonic is like . . . jeez #it's not a great look! #a lot of this was a product of its time; anime from that time period did a lot with ''girl pursues guy no matter how much he tells her no #and this is seen as OK bc teehee women are weaker than men and therefore ineffectual threats'' #see also: Sakura pursuing Sasuke - although decades later she never grew out of that & in her post-canon novel has the ''epiphany'' #that she will continue to push herself on him until his ''no'' turns into a ''yes'' #so needless to say that i am SO. FUCKING. GLAD. that Sega got their heads out of their asses & didn't go that route w/ Amy #i would still prefer Sonic to always remain single bc I'm an aroace Sonic truther - but at least we won't be in a timeline where #Amy just ''wore him down'' - bc she hasn't harassed him like that for years now. she calmed down & they have a friendship #so if they DO make the ship overt it'll be bc she calmed down so Sonic was able to develop feelings naturally #versus she wore him down with the harassment. & her behavior in the 90s / aughts games WAS harassment #but back then it was considered cute & funny in anime (bc again - girls aren't threatening teehee /gag) so. it was what it was #i'm just glad things are different now

Oh are you working on any fanfic ?

Yup! Thanks for asking!

I've got two primary fics in the works. One I am already posting wip-style up on my A03: break upon your shore which is a canon-divergence story for The Untamed. I feel like I am super close to getting the next chapter done! Of course, if I am brutally honest, that is a fic I started writing with no clear idea where the heck it is going. That is not the way I usually work, so it's making me a little nervous. But I needed to just give myself space to try something. I've been getting in my own way when it comes to writing lately.

The second thing I am working on is a curse!fic. Again in The Untamed. It's at about 85,000 words already and should be 20 chapters or so. I've been making moderate progress on it lately. Finally worked out some tangled plot threads and thematic structures on a really long hike a few weeks back. This project in particular is really tickling that part of my brain that likes writing long, sprawling fics focusing on character development and relationships. With slow, slow burn of course. And I am trying my best to finish the whole thing in at least rough form before I start posting. But those polished first three chapters are looking really tempting! (Can I follow through on a long project like this without any external encouragement, not even the help of a beta, squee or otherwise? Only time with tell.

I have about a dozen other fic ideas in various states, so it would be nice to get one of these finished, both to make space for more ideas in my brain, but also to prove to myself that I can actually write and finish things. I haven't really done that since I finished in my head we do everything right back in early 2020. I've almost forgotten I used to write things and actually finish them.

Thanks for letting me blather on about this. It's been a little isolating writing for a new fandom. I'm not sure creating a second tumblr to put all my new obsessions on was the right call, but I didn't want to bore you all with something you never signed up to hear about. *shrug*

I would like to add that during that 30 min or so time span that ao3 was back up earlier I was reading a tokodeku fanfic and my multishipper ass wants to get back to it.

#tokodeku #ao3shutdown #Ao3Outage #I admit I am multishipper trash and im proud #i get to read so many ships just for one character therefore anytime anyone interacts in the show or book i get dopamine
