#age related rules

[crowbird]

I'm so tired of age gap fics please if i can suspend my disbelief about mushroom zombies I can suspend my disbelief about the reader's age not being equivalent to my own, please just give me two 50(+) year old bastards falling in love no more of this 15+ year age gap I swear to god someone is gonna make me start writing last of us fanfiction at this rate.

Anyways, I would like to request some aid from the last of us fandom in terms of fic recs if anyone knows any good reader insert or x reader fics wherein they and joel are around the same age? Pre or post outbreak, au, I don't care I'm starving please if anyone has any let me know.

EDIT: I did not think this was going to get any traction which in hindsight was kinda stupid of me but I really want to clarify something since I originally left it in the tags which I probably shouldn't have. THIS ISNT A HIT PEICE. I've been a fanfic writer for years now even if this blog isn't exactly a great example of my supposed stellar writing consistency. I mean no hate towards the people who like age gap or write it it just isn't my thing personally and I would like to read fics that explore other topics besides that when it comes to this fandom. Yes I understand the easy solution is to write my own and i would be a liar to say I wasn't but I'm new to this fandom and still consuming the actual content and I know my drafts aren't exactly great right now in part because of that. What I wanted to accomplish here wasn't just to complain a little but to reach out and ask if anyone could point me in the direction of non age gap fics in the mean time and they did so thank you very much!! I genuinely appreciate it. Write what you like but understand that I also reserve the right to read what I like and to ask for help in finding it because let's be honest tumblrs search and filter system is non existent and asking for help was my next best bet so uh yeah I'm gonna stop rambling now and refine this maybe when I'm more awake and can word things better probably.

#THIS ISNT HATE #THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION #I'm just really tired of looking for fanfic for certain characters usually played by Pedro pascal let's be real here #and then 99% of them are age gap #like cool people like that good for them all the respect #it just ain't for me #but it's literally all there is #like non age gap fics are the acception not the rule #when I say age gap I mean like reader is at least ten years younger then the character #yeah I know as long as everyone is consenting adults legally it's fine or whatever #it's the difference in life experience for me #I just want more fics where the reader was an adult before the world ended #I swear to god someone is gonna make me write that last of us x resident evil fic #the plot just combines the the two #Leon was in Spain when it happened #racoon city was once a thing #ironically umbrella didn't end the world #weird how mold and fungi are kinda similar I wonder if that's related— [gunshots] #joel miller x reader

@windsweptinred still on the subject of rules, if I remember well, in the comics we never see the First bow before Morpheus, while we see the Second Corinthian bow before Daniel...

It makes the memory wipe all the more intriguing because what is Daniel so fearful of, he feels the need to protect the Corinthian from himself

I totally agree! even Flynn's role as 'guardian' is a way of protecting the Corinthian from himself, from that instinct to kill which, as in a wild animal, cannot be tamed

#“There's a Destiny level unwillingness to step outside of the rules / except when it comes to the Corinthian” #another interesting thing is this Destiny/Daniel parallelism on the way he relates to the rules! #I think that this more than being related to his 'young age' #is really a distinctive trait of his personality #Daniel is the director who does not allow any improvisation from his actors #with the exception of the Corinthian #characters&analysis #corinthiel #the corinthian #daniel hall #sandman comic spoilers

writing about an A and a B that are so different from the common idea people have about them in this fandom is both a blessing and a curse, because now I see all the posts talking about them as basically puppets with no free will and I have to remind myself that they are not my A and B. because mine not only are older than L and first met him at the Wammy's but also enjoyed the idea of becoming this detective L planned to create. like, L showed them what he can do and what he can teach them. and they both accepted it because "hell yeah, sign me up". they had different visions on how that's going to work for them, and they also kind of helped him set up the successor programme because in my mind, there's no way that L would start his career - he's overly confident that he'll become a great detective in no time - without a solid foundation that can make the detective persona live forever. basically, I changed them in this way cuz i want them to be the responsible for their own downfall, since it's a common theme in death note

#even the wammy's house is different from what people say cuz I had to plan it out completely and make it make sense #so I had to decide the grading system before A's death - the activities - what kids are accepted (age 5 and up) and so on #rules - the entry exam - the other school related activities and much more #so I have a clear view of what's going on in my opinion #and while it's still emotionally neglectful and kids there are not alright #they are aggressive and even if I set up the first like 3 grades to be about social norms and whatnot #that just turned against me because I now realise that most of them don't learn how to live with others #but that lying and cheating the system is alright as long as they advance lmao #but that's not my fault anyway #and while all of that #it's not the hell on earth that most people say it is #I find myself writing more about the kids playing with each other and doing whatever they want than them trying to get at the top #because that's not their priority - except a few exceptions - since they are young #and even in mello's and near's case - Mello was the only one who was like obsessed with being first #the others didn't care that much #cuz all they see is that they live in a good place that provides for them and other than compulsory school work #they can just play and indulge in their hobbies freely cuz I don't think Watari nags them to be at the top #death note #wammy's house #beyond birthday #quillish wammy

the thing about qui gon and rael is that like. rael thinks qui gon is the version of him who didn't fail, right? qui gon was the one who didn't have to kill his padawan in the end. qui gon was the one who didn't fuck up in a way that unmade him. and qui gon knows that. qui gon believes that. qui gon thinks that all that's standing between him and the utter destruction of what's left of rael is the bare fact that he wasn't the one to physically kill his padawan. rael for qui gon is a version of himself that he hates. and that's something he can't ever acknowledge

#something something golden child complex #at least the fuck up gets to admit there's something wrong with the system and they got screwed up because of it #you don't because the only thing keeping you together is the system #your entire identity is invested in it. and if you lose that then you're unmade #like. the daddy issues of it all #because the ways they construct the ways they relate to the world are purely through rules #rael in how he bucks them and qui gon in how he obeys them (not necessarily jedi rules. but HIS version of jedi rules) #and dooku being... dooku. #dooku being strict and unforgiving and doing it because he cares about his padawans! that's how he knows how to love! #he loves by pushing and pushing and pushing until the thing he loves is how he thinks it should be #you grow up with that and you start to have a voice in your head that's always telling you how you messed up again #and it starts out sounding like your master and then it just sounds like you #and suddenly you're middle aged and the man in front of you is everything the voice inside your head hates (and you know you ARE the man in #of you. you know the only thing separating you two is luck) so what can you do but despise him a little bit. almost as much as you envy him #what can you do but try to convince yourself it wasn't luck you escaped his fate. what can you do but try to convince yourself that you got #out because you're better #quirael #star wars #rael averross #qui gon jinn

The post I just reblogged makes me think about some of the fucking weird ways ppl infantilize women in their 20s who date older men. Is there a power dynamic that has the potential to be exploited? Often! But like. They're still very much adult women. A while back I saw someone say "What do they even TALK about" re: an actor in his late 40s dating a 25 year old actress. And like. Lots I bet??? Their careers and friends in common probably??? Ppl in their 20s are capable of having meaningful relationships with people 20+ years older, platonic or not.

#if anybody takes a bad faith read away from this that I'm defending abusive age gap relationships I will melt you with eye beams #if you think EVERY relationship between adults with an age difference is abusive then you'll be fucking useless at identifying real abuse #i'm not ruling out that those actors could have had a gross relationship I just dont fucking know them #but talking abt a grown woman like a child who can't relate to other adults is fucking absurd and NOT how you help she's actually being hur #*if shes actually being hur #hurt #age gap cw jic

But also the moment some wannabe murderer appears in Baldur's Gate Levi is furious. This is HIS city, HIS playground.

He's their resident serial killer, no one else.

#dark urge: levi #dark urge #family matters #Levi having monopoly on not gang-related murders is Uh...pretty much a thing #30 or so years in the future ppl get tired of being scared of being murdered by him and start paying archduke a fee #nobles: please PLEASE hold down your maniac of a husband. we all knowit's him. no one says it but we KNOW #Gortash calls it safety taxation #they're an awful pair or murder hobo +tyrant ruling BG (and conquering Hells bc who's gonna stop them?) #but also life in BG actially gets better for common folk bc Gortash and Levi are too busy conquering hells and bullying powerful players #of the society #notice how is said 30 years into the future? bc yeah like hell Gortash dies from old age #sus immortality my beloved #redeemed durge is already kind of immortal canonically (thanks Withers) #and i bet those two fuckers would find a way to make Gortash immortal too #who's gonna stop them?? #who could ever stop them when they're together?? #Noah likes the idea of his parents not dying ever:3

[corvidfeathers]

my most shameful asoiaf opinion is that I relate to stannis just a little bit btw. I don’t think he should have Done All That though

#uncanny ability to relate to extremely resentful middle aged men in fiction #I just sort of see where he’s coming from in his resentments of his brothers. what if you do the hard thing because you’re soso loyal #but no one is very grateful because you’re mean and boring and sort of a drag :/ sad! #anyway. none of this makes for a good leader and you rlly should not wage wars over petty rule following and resentment #corvid rambles

I am a normal person with a job and various normal hobbies but also if you sliced open my brain you would find a region which has existed for years and is singularly dedicated to storing my needlessly overspecific post-OOT / MM Zelda headcanons covering the span of several in-universe decades and in fact aren’t headcanons because they are all completely correct and accurate and ~thematic~

#okay so canon strongly suggests that TP Link is a descendant of OOT Link but I dislike the trope of biology/bloodlines = magic destiny #also OOT Link was raised by a talking tree and literally never even met an adult until he was like. eleven. #therefore dude has no attachment to the concept of marriage or a ✨nuclear family✨ and by the time he grows into adulthood again #he gives like. negative fucks about anything. he’s paid his dues to the world man. #therefore he ends up in some kind of polycule thing + raises a bunch of kids some of whom are maybe ‘’his’’ but several are adopted orphans #so like. inherited generational Stuff is going on and he’s a parent in every way that matters but as far as biological ancestry: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #he obsessively teaches them all the survival skills he knows but is super lax in most other respects #(no sword training tho bc he didn’t want them to HAVE to know and then by the time he was maybe ready he physically couldn’t anymore) #and is thrilled to see them turn all rowdy and rebellious bc he feels like his life would’ve gone better if he’d been that way as a kid #in the same way that Link was somewhat modeled after Peter Pan (or really one of the lost boys to be more accurate) #the kids end up akin to Robin Hood and the outlaws especially after Link dies at a fairly young age bc they’re quite reasonably like #‘’hey fuck you queen Zelda you ruined our dad’s life fuck off fuck offffffffff’’ #(cue them being derisively called a wolf pack—foreshadowing the whole Assigned Wolf Fursona at Death thing lmfao) #this ends up being extremely relevant to 1.) what happened to the actual ocarina of time between MM and TP #2.) Ordona becoming a semi-independent province within that timespan as well #but BEFORE ALL THAT HAPPENS so like relations between Hyrule and the Gerudo people are like. Very Poor at this point. for many reasons. #so by the time zelda actually becomes the ruling queen—

my sister is going on a trip and i asked him “can you make sure she has a woman uber driver” and he’s like “She’s gonna crash her and they’ll both die and never make it to her location” and my sis and dad both laughed and i wasn’t laughing and he said “Cmon it’s funny. Don’t you get it? it’s because women can’t drive” and they laughed again, like NO SO SHE DOESNT GET FUCKIN ASSAULTED.

say 'guess men are stupid as well as bad drivers, because they cause the majority of crashes, not women, but they just blame everything on us as usual and take no responsibility'. watch them get mad despite making the same claims at you.

#some studies purportedly show that women are involved in more crashes than men in relation to distance travelled #BUT #women's crashes are extremely less likely to be their fault or cause fatalirty #the vast majority of severe crashes and fatalities are men #and it's usually their fault with reckless driving #country also plays a big part #shitty roads few following the rules cars not designed for women etc. #sex age difference also matters #the majority of crashes are young men #overall men cause about 70% of crashes in western countries

live musical theater is about getting to see like seven of the most beautiful stunning women you’ve ever seen do splits in sparkly outfits and then ten of the gayest men you’ve ever laid eyes upon and then also they all sing. and you get to watch this while also kind of rudely eavesdropping on the people sitting in front of you and speculating about their lives during intermission. what’s not to love…

#still thinking about that bigass family in front of us #like that guy was around my age was that his much younger brother or his son. #if brother. where were their parents they only came with grandparents #if son. where was the mom #unlikely that the other guy my age in their group who was very obviously not related to them was like. his partner. but not to be ruled out #perhaps they were all cousins there with the shared grandparents #none of this matters but well. what else was i supposed to think about during intermission #beth.txt

I'm saying this as someone who has NOT read far enough to know if this is true or not, but grouping Shannon with the cousins the way they have, and the fact that she wears the one winged eagle, might also suggest that she's an illegitimate Ushiromiya. Let's hope not for George's sake.

shannon being related to them would be horrifying but i'm pretty sure it's not the case since "secret illegitimate family member masquerading as a servant" is kind of like so incredibly blatantly obvious as a mystery trope and i think if it was what's going on the "hints" wouldn't be laid on this thick in episode 1. i think the story wants you to think this might be the case but i also think it really truly is not the case.

i'm 99% sure the notion of "ushiromiya shannon" is being used as a smokescreen to detract from the real reason behind why shannon bears so much ushiromiya iconography and why she's actually trapped in this servitude role and receives so much attention from kinzo. given what we know about kinzo and how much he loathes his family/bloodline and his "anyone can solve the epitaph and win the headship wink wink nudge nudge" thing it's far more likely that he would only passively encourage someone not of ushiromiya blood to assume the headship. there might be some kind of loophole in his contract with beatrice where if the fortune is not in the hands of an ushiromiya when beatrice comes to collect her debts it's untouchable or something and so kinzo's been half-grooming shannon since infancy to assume some kind of role like that (my personal running theory with little evidence is that he's actually planning on using shannon's body as a vessel for beatrice's spirit to possess but if you go through the mental gymnastics of double-metaphor obfuscation, being possessed by beatrice and assuming the headship are kind of the same thing) as a servant with no will of her own or the ability to say no. so "ushiromiya shannon" could be argued to be the objective and not the starting point.

also logistically i cannot see how shannon being a secret child would work at all. since she's sixteen it means she'd have been born after every other cousin except for maria, which then limits whose child she could be - the existence of battler, jessica, and george dictate that rudolf, krauss, and eva aren't responsible. rosa is a fair deal younger than the other siblings so there's no way she could have concealed what would have in all likelihood been a teen pregnancy from the other family members. and if it was kinzo given his absolute rule as the ushiromiya patriarch there'd be no motive for him to conceal shannon in an orphanage and then backdoor hire her as a servant.

so yeah i think positioning shannon to the family like this is more indicative of a) kinzo's direct controlling abuse of her and b) the love and bond that the cousins have with her rather than some elaborate plot that makes sense from a trope-based point of view but not a thematic one.

#martinkhall #also shannon and kanon's whole deal is a found family thing #so a secret relative reveal would muddy the waters of the whole 'bonds formed by choice are stronger than bonds formed with blood' motif #george and shannon's relationship is bad enough due to the power imbalance age gap and class dynamics #having them be related would imo undermine the structures and choices that poison the well in favor of something beyond their control #like i'm not ruling out some weird family tree shenanigans later on but shannon is definitely not the character to do it with

hm. should i be worried about blank untitled blogs following me

#smudgy.txt #like 2 ppl w blank blogs have followed me lately #like are yall bots or. what #i blocked blank blogs b4 but i dont see the point/feel bad if im blocking ppl who genuinely just want to see my posts #so i havent been doing it lately #the only thing that bothers me is no age but like there r non blank blogs following me who dont have their ages listed so 😑 #ig i just prefer to trust that ppl r seeing & respecting my rule #& i just block when its more obvious they arent #anyway i was just wondering bc #there were those posts going around addressing ppl w blank blogs #& i get the not reblogging anything being a problem #but like. i personally dont rly mind? wrt my og posts anyway #but also i saw mention of ppl getting hacked??? is that a thing related to blank blogs following u?????? #just want to make sure here #oh also when i started being more active on this blog i intended to post more n/s/f/w stuff but i never got around to it so #thats why im not too bothered abt the ageless bios. but if i #ever build up the courage to b H*rny On Main i will Definitely start blocking more liberally lmao

The more I think about adding the HS muses, the more I’m thinking I should have a blanket tag for the whole fandom due to all the many very uncomfortable tw’s all of the characters will need. Which while I don’t plan on rp’ing the creepy shit, it’s still apart of the characters and may come up in past tense.

#The Writer {OOC} #the main things the come to mind that are a lot darker than my normal is ince//st which comes up with Jane & Jake due to cody #gro//omng/age gallps/pe//d/o which comes up with how berofureous is set up as a whole #and with Summor #yeah a lot of very dark stuff that isn't on the rest of the blog #so given that the fandom s gonna have a blanket tag #& again I'm not planning on rp'ing any of ths darker stuff but also can't fully brush all of it aside when it comes to the muses #though the ablist shit is leaving as it doesn't really effect the plot of the characters #ask to tag #Homestuck {413} #<--- that's the blanket tag #also due to all the tw stuff all of the muses are probably gonna have extra rules on their pages to make clear where my lines are #lke for an example Feferi can't be shipped wth John Jade Jane or Jake since they're all related though Cody #I hope this all makes sense

[britnxyspears]

Only children not knowing how to share is propaganda because when I was an only child I shared everything while my cousins who I lived with would kill each other and me before sharing anything ever. Siblings do NOT share idk why y'all are pushing only children in that stereotype XD

#my family relations are complicated. im an only child in the way i grew up but not really i shared a house with my similar aged cousins #who had MUCH more lax rules and were still little assholes #and then my father couldn't stop fucking the dumbest women in the world no matter how much i reached out to them and said #that he wont even pay child support for his oldest child and will knock them up and leave violently #(which he did every time) and so then i had to go raise those half siblings #bc incompetent mothers lol. #so i never really got to be a true sibling there was such an age gap that i was more like an aunt or something
