baby enemies to lovers stories? i loveeee them, dont know whats wrong with me bestie
nothing is wrong with you babe, you just have taste!
I'm a sucker for a good enemies to lovers story too so dkjhjshdf I'm so happy for this! Anyway let's begin!
My forever and always favorite enemies to lovers story is "404" by my beloved @freedomfireflies When I say I need 404!harry, I couldn't mean it more! I had a dream about him for real 😭 It's so well written and you can literally feel the tension between the two characters. 404!harry is my baby and I want to put him in my pocket and have him there forever. It's everything you could ask for in a story with that trope. 🙌 😍 (personal fav: a-mazing and jealous - I was on my knees)
Also please do yourself a favor and read @harrys-titties "Harry's a dick and Y/N hates him for it". It's really amazing! The way she built their relationship was precious 🥰 And I loved that Harry's best friend was Sarah, it was a beautiful touch. When you will start reading it, you will find yourself unable to put it down. (um also I have the "y/n and harry hate each other, until they don't" in my "to read list" and I'm sure it will be amazing)
Additionally "grumpy h" by my favorite @cupid-styles is *chef's kiss* seriously. I really liked how their dynamic began to change and they were so soft for each other 😇 so cute 🥰 Oh and I almost forgot it! "You're my last shot" is an enemies to lovers story too and believe me it's so sweet, I loved it. I was reading the blurbs until 3 AM in the morning hehe 😇
Of course it's not a proper rec list for enemies to lovers stories if I don't mention "aster" by @moonchildstyles ! It is really good! Like reallyyy good😍 It's the cutest thing ever hdshgjghshjg Now I'm thinking about it, I will reread it 😍 I was obsessed with this the first time I read it.
Also "Ballerina Y/N and Ballerina Harry" by @jawllines ! Oh my God, it's so good! Actually I can't express how good it is, words aren't enough! I just love it. I started rereading it actually the other day and I couldn't stop myself. I have a soft spot for it 😇 Their chemistry is everything! 😍 The characters are amazing and Y/N is a queen! Also Ballerina!Harry is exactly my type so 😇
@be-with-me-so-happily has a great enemies to lovers story too! "Not what we bargained for" is freaking good 😍 Had a great time reading it!
Oh and of course "Harry is Y/N's producer & she doesn't like him" and "Y/N & Harry kind of hate each other but have to walk together in their friends' wedding party" by @0nlythrowharrybeaux ! Her stories are so addictive 😍 Her writting has an incredible flow 😍
One last thing: it's not actually a story but @justlemmeadoreyou ' headcanons are crazy and I guarantee you that the mean!friends with benefits!harry headcanons are so f*cking hot 😱check them out 😍 (also she's making a series based on them, part 1 is out and I'm telling you it's so good! Cant' wait for the next part! - it may be a friends with benefits trope but they started as enemies, they didn't like each other much so yeah that's why I put it here)
I'm 100% sure I'm forgetting many other stories I would love to include in this but I can't think of anything else right now sorry 😭 If something else comes up to my mind, I will add it ❤️ Enjoy ❤️
P.S always grateful to the authors 😊

You know I have to realise that one of the reasons why SasuSaku's dynamic is interpreted wrong is not only because of the unnecessary Sakura hate but also the lack of understanding for Sasuke's character, more specifically, his love language. It's easier to understand that Sakura cared for Sasuke, she's extremely expressive of her emotions. But with Sasuke, it's a different story. He's not good at expressing his emotions or verbalising them (which is understandable bc of his trauma), his love language is primarily ‘acts of service’. For example, what Sasuke SAID was Naruto is a ‘loser’ and ‘scaredy cat’ but what he DID was immediately risking his life when Haku was about to attack Naruto. think this is something which fans tend to forget about him often. He's a VERY show-dont-tell person. Sakura, in contrast, is good at expressing her feelings. Her love language also includes physical touch and words of affirmation. She can easily tell Sasuke she's in love with him or hug her when he wakes up from a coma. Which is probs majorly why so many fans feel their relationship is ‘one sided’ because of the clear difference between their love language.
I think THIS is exactly one of the main reasons why I saw SS becoming endgame. While Sasuke isn't fond of physical touch, he felt comfortable enough with Sakura to calm down at her touch, let her hug him, carve for her hand in the FOD, hold her, poke her forehead etc. Similarly, he's not the best at verbalising his feelings in words but he tried, again, the thank yous, the apology, cheering her up before the exam. This is something he doesn't do with anyone else. While I am sure Sasuke fell in love with her only after ch. 699, it's pretty clear he had a soft spot for her before leaving the village, which was evident from the way he had been with her, (which eventually turned into love after his redemption journey).
Yeah I agree, Sasuke's definitely the most misunderstood character in the story, and even in the few instances when he does actually verbalise his affection, they're always just glossed over by the fans. The amount of times that I've heard people say...
That he hates Sakura (despite never saying or implying that).
That he doesn't give a damn about her (despite indicating that she is one of his most precious people on multiple occasions).
That he constantly insulted her (despite never insulting her once).
That he was forced and guilt tripped into being in a relationship with her (as if anyone could ever force him to do something that he doesn't want to do).
That he allows himself to be in a loveless marriage (despite how canonically important love is to the Uchiha).
I honestly just don't think he was that difficult to read, especially when you give the Curse of Hatred the significance that it deserves.
While I am sure Sasuke fell in love with her only after ch. 699, it's pretty clear he had a soft spot for her before leaving the village
💯
Yep, Sasuke wasn't in love with Sakura during the main story, nor did he need to be, but the fact that he nonetheless held her (and Naruto) very close to his heart is undeniable.
He described her as a dear comrade.
He was ready to risk his life fending off Gaara so that Naruto could get her to safety.
He thought of her and Naruto when Kakashi referenced his precious companions.
He was reminded of her and the rest of Team 7 when Taka were sacrificing themselves for his sake.
He revealed how he saw the shadow of his family within her and the rest of Team 7. And when considering just how precious Sasuke's family was to him, those are big words indeed.
Your point about how he only tends to show direct verbal affection towards Sakura is also a significant one. One could say how he also apologised to Karin, but the difference between them is very clear.

schmem14 [some truly wonderful & witty rarepair gems y'all] vukovich [off-the wall, peculiar delivered in amazing prose] mintaminta [insightful angst/dead dove & hot kinky smut]
tagging @mystickitten42 @citrusses @kittycargo @lumosatnight @xanthippe74 @rockingrobin69 @stavromulabetaaa @bubble-gumhead @porcelainheart3 @roseharpermaxwell @curlyy-hair-dont-care
me, myself & i
How many works do you have on AO3?
76 + 1 in anon, to be revealed soon!
What's your total AO3 wordcount?
149,896
What fandoms do you write for?
HP, with emphasis on Drarry.
What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Come as You Are (3.8k) Sun Stroke (3.8k) Laundry Day (2.7k) 10 Easy Steps (1.8k) It's Called Fashion, Potter (2.1k)
Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
listen. yes. i try. and i am so far behind atm. honestly, i get the most wonderful comments from lovely readers. and i want them to know how appreciative i am that they took time to read(!) and let me know their thoughts(!!). even if it's just an emoji(!!!). i don't care, i love it.
What is a fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
if you read me, you know...i do not write angst. i have one (1) fic where i stepped out of my lane and wrote angst-lite. it's not even really angst, but more moody atmospheric. and interestingly enough, the most purple i've prosed. my beta was like, peach, what? the weed which strings the hangman's bag
What is a fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
pfft, all my fics have the happiest endings.
Do you get hate on fics?
nope. i did get hate on a supportive/love comment i left on a friend's fic once. that's, like, 7th circle of hell troll behavior to be hating on a comment.
Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
i do write smut, yes. my smut has been described as [insert various descriptors like "inferno", "blazing", "scorching", and lots of🔥] hot paired with soft/romantic/sweet. i.e. fluffy smut. smuff.
Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
nope. the closest i've come is inserting HP characters into a magical version of The Breakfast Club.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not that i'm aware of.
Have you ever had a fic translated?
not that i'm aware of, but i do have a blanket statement in my AO3 profile that allows it, so who knows?
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
nope.
What's your all-time favorite ship?
drarry, easily.
What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
i have a fic inspired by a movie and idk if i'll ever get it written. I COULD mention my xmas advent fic from 2020 but i'm determined to finish it this year. DETERMINED. 🦔
What are your writing strengths?
i'm good at characterizations & writing banter. and i'm good at writing lean.
What are your writing weaknesses?
recently, i've had the immense pleasure of listening to my fics read aloud in published podfics. and let me say, this is a brilliant way to spot weaknesses. and while my banter may be good, sometimes i maybe inject too much action into my conversations. it disrupts the flow. also, long, plotty fics ellude me. i'm a pantser/gardner style writer and plotting/outlining makes me hyperventilate.
Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
yes, if used sparingly, and in such a way that i (as an english only speaker) can intuit what is being said. and also if translations are provided as a footnote. i've got a french-speaking Draco in my Dron fics [1] [2], where he lapses in the heat of passion.
First fandom you wrote for?
drarry, baby.
Favorite fic you've written?
if i may, i have two: Deadheading the Odd Dahlia, inspired by the incredible art of @beyondtheclose Birds Behaving Badly (my longest drarry to date! 10k!)

I just need to tell you about this amazing little writer,@cordeliawhohung.
I stumbled across this account by total accident okay? Like 100% had no intention of reading the fanfictions she wrote for. I had only ever heard of Call Of Duty from my husbands late night gaming escapades. But yet, i took a chance, I googled "Simon Riley" and was like "oh okay, bet, military man who wears a skull mask. Lets give it a try," So i did.
I read her fanfiction series called Soft Spot, with basically ZERO context. I googled more in the hour it took me to read her work than ive ever googled in my life. But i was NOT dissapointed. Did i have to reread scenes to figure out who was talking because i was clueless on their names? yes. Did it discourage me one bit? no.
BECAUSE. this girls writing is something else. it captivates you, throws you right into being the main character which is EXACTLY what you're looking for when you read these things. Without fail Core had me hooked. So i did the thing that most anyone does, I left a little ask/message for her. Explaining how this piece of UNPAID, UNOWED work left me on the edge of my seat. How the wrods jumped off the page to try to become reality. Because thats what they did.
And this percious little bean, offered to message me about the characters, to help me understand the things i didnt. She not only eagerly, but kindly informed me of the beautiful characters of Call of Duty Modern Warefare 2, but she also showed me how beautiful her very soul is.
She became one of those people i wanted to talk to all the time. (I probably annoy her with how much i message her, and Core i am sorry, but i cant help it.) We started talking more regularly, and in the few weeks we have been talking, i've come to consider her one of my friends.
Although we dont get to talk a lot, due to her work, time differences and life just being hard. ANY time i see her username pop up in my notifications im thrilled.
I could go on for hours about her, i should. Because there are so many amaizng things i could say about her.
Her writing is next level, if we could all legally publish fanfiction without the whole legal rights thing, Core's story "Soft Spot" would be a best seller. I firmly believe that she would be NYC Best Selling Author her first year. Her way of writing hooks you from the first few words. I honestly get a little jealous of how well she writes, but she was quick to tell me that if we all wrote the same then the world would be boring. Which is true.
So to conclude this post. If you havent, check her out. send her an ask, and get to know the amazing person who runs @cordeliawhohung. You won't regret it.
Also be kind to your fanfiction writers, they do this without pay. For YOUR entertainment. Reblog, like, share, interact with them. They write 100+k fics because they love the same characters as you. They write the works that some people need, that they crave, all on their own time. Be appreciatve and understanding when they do upload and when they can't. They're humans too. Be kind to them. Dont demand things from them.
Core, i appreciate you. I care for you. I will agressively love you from hundreds of miles away. Take care of you, take whatever time you need. And NEVER apologize to anyone for feelings like you aren't doing enough. Because just being you, babes, thats enough.

hi <3 since ive already obsessively reread your works i dont know how many times i think it's time for me to branch out and find some other batfam stuff too (im still a loyal reader tho dw bestie) i was wondering if you had any batfam authors you personally love and / or are inspired by! or maybe your top 5 batfam fics? if you don't mind sharing it ofc! thank u have a swag day and thank u for putting out such amazing amazing work into the world that offers me (personally) so much comfort :)
hello !! thank you so much for reading my works and i hope you will continue to enjoy them <3 i am so glad they bring you as much comfort reading as they do for me when writing !! and YES OF COURSE there is simply nothing i love more than recommending batfam fics that have me going absolutely crazy insane.
i previously did a top 5 batfam fic recs, and so here are my, uh, other top 5 batfam fics? everything is at the top of my list at this point.
+ these are in no particular order !!
MY TOP 5 BATFAM FICS (AGAIN) ON AO3 !
Cold Hard Want by AudreyCritter
“Are you happy?”
“I...I’m getting there.”
A follow-up to DC Rebirth Batman #35, in which Bruce recovers from being stabbed in the back and Damian considers the elusive nature of happiness.
MY NOTES: i might have read this fic a dozen times and everytime i do i am always so amazed by it. i have a soft spot for fics that move alongside actual comic canon, and so this was a lovely follow up to that original story (though you do not need to be familiar with it to enjoy this fic). damian is such a complicated character but at the end of the day, he is a child — and i think this handled his tumultuous relationship with bruce, dick and selina(!!) really well.
White Christmas by LemonadeGarden
Jason's been in the manor for a few months now. Bruce is a pretty cool guy, sure, but he's not exactly sure what to expect from him.
And then they go to Siberia in the winter on a case. It goes horribly wrong, and then pretty well.
MY NOTES: personally i think it is always the perfect time of year for a christmas fic that isn't actually about christmas. now, not only do all the best tropes meet in this fic (cuddling for warmth, sick fic, comfort after nightmares - to name a few) BUT this is also about robin jason todd. the little boy of all time. wonderful fic.
all the other rooms are a party tonight (and you never got an invitation) by irnan
(You will need an ao3 account to access this fic)!
The major difference between Gotham before Bruce left to set up Batman, Inc and Gotham after he comes back is that his children are grown-ups. Well, except for Damian.
Still, four out of five's an overwhelming majority.
MY NOTES: there is something so healing about this fic. bruce is rather pathetic (said fondly) in the way troubled middle aged men become when they finally realise their life is only in consequence of the people who exist around them. the dynamic between cass and bruce and dick and bruce in this is one of my favourites. the latter is very carefully weaved into the entire story, even when pertaining the other characters. a great take on bruce!
Have I Told You About Minnie? by Hinn_Raven
After you’ve known Matches Malone long enough, you get used to him telling you about his kids. Not that his kids know about it.
MY NOTES: oh this is such a fun one!! stephanie and bruce is such a wonderful dynamic and something about bruce creating an entirely new persona as a subconscious excuse to gloat about his children is just too funny. really sweet!
i want you to remember me by zxrysky
Bruce really needs to get rid of his saviour complex. Not all of them are the same as that poor boy who had to watch his parents get murdered in a dark alleyway; not all of them need to be saved.
Jason is perfectly fine where he is. Some capital would be great, but otherwise, he’s fine. He’s fine.
He doesn’t need to be saved again.
“No thanks,” Jason mutters, and pushes the papers away.
MY NOTES: this one hits you when you least expect it. it is so funny, so sweet and it hurts. jason todd you are so ridiculously complicated and tragic. also my favourite kind of time travel, kind-of-time-travel! little jason receives all of older jason's memories and his meeting with bruce and journey to robin is different, but some things are just destiny i suppose. so lovely.
as for inspirations or favourite authors, i have to say it might just be everyone i have ever read a fic from so i can not pick out anyone right now. the writers featured on this list are also phenomenal and some have written other amazing and loved batfam fics you should definitely check out!
hope you enjoy these anon and thank you again <3

mmmmm thought dump about what the bsd mers look/act like ahead.
I think DAZAI is an eel type thing. fitting, in my opinion. slippery bastard. some of the most AWFUL looking teeth you have EVER seen in your ENTIRE LIFE. super long tail, much longer than you think he really has any right to have, and certainly long enough to wrap neatly around your little vessel, the strength of the appendage bringing you to a full stop. what? did you think you had permission to cross over HIS waters without paying the toll? silly, he'll have to teach you how show some proper respect to a creature such as him. (the toll is kisses and attention for as long as he decides he wants to hold you there) he's also a LAZY fishy. just kinda sits around on the bottom of the sea, hidden in his little cave dwelling, waiting for his food to come to him. hes the same way with you, as well. just kinda lays around bored on the rocks until he spots you. after that is kinda up to his whims. he might be nice and just wanna snuggle up (insert cuddlefish pun) or he could want to use his giant tail to fling you full force into the water and use you like a pool toy for the day. who knows. CHUUYA is a pretty standard Pretty Mermaid (I think hes got a green tail), at least on the surface. unlike dazais permanent monsters state, chuuyas horrible sharp teeth and claws and actually either retractable or entirely unnoticeable if hes got you stuck in one of his songs. despite his elegant appearance, he's an AGGRESSIVE hunter among sirens, only really outclassed by his sharky friend akutagawa (who mostly just hunts any creature that he sees, when chuuya and his ilk will opt for humans). speaking of AKUTAGAWA. shark! SHARP teeth. absolutely COVERED in scars from fights with other merpeople (that he ALWAYS WINS thank you very much) and overall is really only outdone by dazai in terms of how unsettling he looks. but also like sharks, he can actually be pretty docile when hes in the mood, even willing to let you pet his head if you bribe him with enough fish. I keep trying to come up with something interesting for FYODOR but my brain just screams FYODOR AS URSULA THE SEA WITCH and now I can't unsee it. imagine it. you see this outwardly beautiful merperson perched on the rocks with his many tentacles, beckoning you over (maybe even using his own singing spell to get you nice and relaxed). oh, dont mind all the appendages dear, sure he might look a bit frightening, but hes a nice fish, really! who could ever harm a poor little downtrodden human like you :( so soft and squishy and vulnerable like that, not him that's for sure! certainly, you have something you wish for? well he can help you! for a small fee.
- 🩹
oh my god i really wanted to get to this sooner but classes were So hectic im here now tho and ready to feast
cw: yandere characters, obsessive behavior, general mentions of consuming humans, sharp teeth/fangs/claws, mention of tentacles, jealousy
eel dazai agreed!! something. Not very appealing probably i'm thinking very beautiful colored scales though !!! actually about the lazing around thing dazai just doesn't need to put effort into hunting for food, there's always just some silly little something floating right into his waters and he can just eat away. he's not picky. now normally a human in his waters just means another meal, but you kind of grow on him, with your fascination and gullibility and sympathy. it helps that you're a lot smaller (he's huge okay) than him and you've got that strange sort of fragility humans have. something about the way you show your emotions so easily, the lack of claws and fangs, the soft grip when you touch him. you're too easy to like. he's super super super clingy and whiny (after the whole i-will-eat-you thing dies off a little. he doesn't stop threatening you but the chances of him acting on his impulses lessen considerably and he genuinely likes you by now) and gets jealous over everything. ask him about other mers and he might blow a fuse. if he had things his way (and if humans weren't so useless) he would just drag you down to his cave and happily stay there forever, but he needs to let you go back to your land-home and wait for you to return every day, for now. until he figures out a solution for that.
chuuya is not standard mermaid excuse you, he's gorgeous and the best in every aspect of his life. a green tail would go great with his hair right hmm i'll leave that up to your interpretation for now. but the thing about his claws being retractable! yes! he's good at hiding things like that, but not with his fangs. there was to be something that gives away his appearance, right? he's usually careful about his mouth when charming humans, but to his surprise, you're not at all taken by his appearance. even when he snarls, frustrated by your lack of reaction, you don't look disgusted, or frightened. just...unbothered. so you don't find him irresistible or terrifying? he'll disappear, swearing to win you over somehow.
i don't really have anything to add on to the akutagawa part i think you've got him spot on with the scars and the fighting everything he sees. he's actually really easy to handle if you just earn his trust with a lot of patience and resolve!! he's only super aggressive because he has to be to survive, but if you don't pose a threat, he'll have no reason to be like that with you.
uhm. so tentacles. i have a weird relationship with them in general so i won't be elaborating here!! i just don't see the appeal unfortunately they really. gross me out (i'm sorry i really can't even picture that without wanting to die) but sea witch fyodor sounds great he's kinda flexible like that he can really be anything i think siren, witch, sailor you name it he can do it

Scarab & Prismo & Snufkin & Muddler for the character bingo!
(doesn’t have to be all of these of course. But can be)
Tumblr media
I NEED TO KILL SCARAB. ITS A NEED. I NEED HIS BLOOD (<- will weep at any angst including him). HES EVEYTHING HES HORRIBLE HES A WRETCHED THING I HATE HIM HES THE WORST I WILL KISS HIM. AUGH. what the hell.
anyways i find him relatable.. something something vulnerability hard and shit yada yada but ALSO i make weird squawking/squeaky noises when im annoyed and i like to imagine he does that with the chirping... its funny
ALSO THE FANDOM KEEPS MAKING HIM SUFFER AND I LOVE IT AND WANT MORE BUT ALSO OW FUCK THAT HURTS WHY OW OW OW everything about his - concerning - respect (kneel for your life.) for authority (he was only following orders.) and isolation (he was never invited to those parties.) from the rest of. well everyone (he doesnt need them. he enjoys being alone. he doesnt need anyone else. he doesnt want it, he doesnt want it, he promises he doesnt.) is just SO. augh.
and the self sabotaging aspect of it. no one will love you, youve accepted that, so you stop sanding down your teeth. you bite and claw at any attempt to soothe your aches and stroke your spikes down, theyre only trying to find a soft spot near your belly.
your worst fears come true. youll never let it happen again. youll stand straight, youll make yourself seem bigger to scare off anyone who tries to come close to you. which leads to anyone who couldve helped you being dissuaded and backing off. serves them right, you never needed fixing. you never needed anyone. ...the clycle begins again. it aches. why? it shouldnt. that isnt allowed.
they should stop that, stop poking at the weak spots. it hurts to feel. you KNOW its to help. you dont want to be helped. stop it, stop. everyones going to know. they cant know it aches. theyll use it against you. keep kneeling, head lower, arch your back. maybe theyll be amused enough to give you mercy.
...cough. well anyways. im gonna stop here before this turns into a full on character analysis and MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ONEEEE WOO
Tumblr media
(youll start to notice a pattern that i express love for characters by wishing to kill them cough)
ANYWAYS MY SECOND HUSBAAND WHOM I WANT DEAD . hes. hes so. i cant.
i honestly love his aesthetic i dont know why. the tv/light/dream shit has a lot of potential methinks. i love the thought of a job swap au where prismo uses light/tech as a way to interact with the world while still being stuck somewhere else... and also the visual funkiness of him being projected onto many many tv screens brings me joy. i want that gender...
also. in general i love it when gods are depicted ss being really mortal-like... like, youre a cosmic being with power and omnipotence over the multiverses you watch over, and yet. you like sandwiches and pools and games and hanging out wih friends and its just. on every level but literal you are mortal and alive and wholly r e a l. but youre not. youre a dream, a projection, youre not even in the dimensions of the people you (love) watch. youre an outsider and its very clear. youre THIS CLOSE to being just like them. but youre not. and you never will be.
youre admired by those who are like you, but you dont really care for it. but those who you do care about either dont see you as anything more than a tool to manipulate the multiverse or see you as too grand to be able to connect with in a way that isnt "you are god and i am not". youre stuck in a prison you yourself control. but a prison is still a prison. people want what you have- how you wished they had it instead of you! maybe then, youd be loved. maybe then, things wouldnt be so ear-deafingly quiet. silence sticks out like a sore thumb in the yearning- the wish to not be alone.
OKAY AM I JUST GONNA DO THIS FOR ALL OF THEM. WHAT THE HELL. MOVING ON.
Tumblr media
okay this time im not gonna intensely analyse his character. hopefully.
AHEM . SNUFKIN!!!! my best friend i love him so so much.......... i need to absorb his fucking vibes and gender so hard what the hell. LIKE BROTHER. HOW DO YOU PULL OFF THAT MUCH SWAGGER WITHOUT EVEN TRYING oh and also there are so many things wrong with you are you like okay bud...
i like to think that "omg hes just like me frfr" but the fact that i get so excited about that thought proves that I actually kin moomintroll nsnxjsjjsj WHICH MAKES SENSE. makes a lot of sense
i love how people interpret his personality... and i love seeing all the potential angst/drama/whatever you call it that could pop up because of how avoindant he is... and his relationships with the other characters... the way he so easily distances himself from others while (i know this isnt about him but once you talk deeply about one of them i suppose you cant leave out the other) moomintroll clings a little too hard onto him...
ill be honest im a bit rusty on anything moomin related, so forgive my poor memory + hesitation, but i do love em a lot still!!! no hyperfixation is dead, just dormant, as they say........... havent thought about them in a while but i should really brush up on everyones characters and the way they interact ... would be really helpful for some analysis and application to my own work and- YEAH WHATEVER YOU GET IT NEXT ONE
Tumblr media
OKAY SO I HAVENT HEARD TOO MUCH ABOUT MUDDLER (aside from bloom's stuff - bless you bloom) BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT HES VERY RELATABLE AND FUNKY AND I LOVE HIM FOR THAT... button collector.... so me fr............
im quite neutral on account of the fact that (again) i havent seen much of him, but i think hes really neato and also(!) i actually used him as inspo for my sona design... ITS JUST THAT, his design fucks so hard so so hard its such a good design. PEAK. absolute peak...
IDK ! i think muddler is such a nice and cool little critter... i would love to have more content of him!!! i need to know more about him!!! honestly atp someone could tag me on muddler content id be happy to have it... i think id really really love him if i just knew more(!!!) but i dont unfortunately waaah..

🪄🔮 and 🍽️ for the Silm asks!
🪄You can change how one (1) Big Event goes down in the Silm - either in favor of something in HoME or something you made up. What happens instead? Tell us the cool stuff!
i think... there are so many things to choose from. i think i'd save celebrimbor. i don't know how much of the troubles of the second age that would actually solve, but the way he died makes my heart ache, and i have such a soft spot for characters who try really hard (and especially the ones who fail)
(also i'd be afraid of unraveling events as i knew them by acting on anything bigger. big events have big effects when you alter them, and i'd hate to accidentally prevent elladan, elrohir, and arwen from being born)
🔮You can reach into the Beyond and ask the Professor to settle one (1) debate for you. He won't even waffle on the answer, honest. What do you ask him?
i would not be asking him about any debates or the canonicity of a particular event, no. for one, it wouldn't really settle the argument because you couldn't really PROVE you actually got the information from him. and moreover, i dont consider word-of-god information to be canon. when authors reveal things in interviews years down the line it leads to silly little "well mom said-" fights in the fandom, which irritate me. basically, if it's important enough for them to speak on it, it should already be in the published material, and if it isn't-- well, i don't believe it's necessary to get their opinion on it. i'd rather make up my own mind based on the presented, published canon material
what i WOULD ask him is if he ever came up with a quenya or sindarin word for "mercy" that he forgot to write down, or if he had any thoughts on the matter to guide me. i've made some fumbling attempts at compounding words to reach something that would cover that concept, or at least come close, but i'm not satisfied yet. it bugs me for all that mercy is a concept baked into the universe there isn't an actual WORD for it in the languages he created. 'pity' is as close as we get
🍽️ You are having a dinner party and you can invite five (5) characters from the Silm. Who do you invite?
i've actually thought about this one a bit! my friend answered this question earlier and it got the wheels in my head going
i'd invite maglor (i'm sure this comes as a shock to everyone reading this), bilbo, elrond, celebrian, and finrod amarie can sneak in as his plus one. they're all people i would love to meet and they've lived across broad enough times and places you could really cover a lot of ground speaking to them for an evening. i don't believe there's any big personal conflicts between any of them? but if there were at least three people present are skilled at smoothing things over, causing big distractions, and telling really cracking stories about their lives
i'd love to talk to celebrian in particular because we know so little about her life outside of the way her family relates to her, and i'd like to get to know her as a person instead of galadriel and celeborn's daughter, arwen and the twins' mother, etc

i feel like while hsr has endless possibilities bc of the universe thing they haven't explored well, i thought because gi was open world it was the reason why i feel so immersed in the story, but then i played other turn-based games and i felt different, they need to get better for sure
Tumblr media
fr fr i think something genshin does well is making us care about the npcs, like even if you're a teppei hater or don't like the npcs in story quests, i dont think ive met anyone who doesn't have a soft spot for any world quest npc.. it makes the world more real instead of making genshin a story about the playable characters alone, which i think hsr lowkey is. unfortunately genshin and hsr will be my first and last experiences with both open world and turn based games so i don't have any reference for hsr's weak points compared to its competitors lolol
you're so right in that they don't take enough advantage of the world hopping and all that lol, honestly i think hsr would be cool if it got turned into a slice of life. You're already chilling (or attempting to chill) while traveling through the universe, why not just make it 100% silly shenanigans instead of real plot (of course this won't happen, but it would be funny and a little bit cute).
MISHA!!! misha...... kissing him on the head.. (watchmaker theory please..) i've done so many pulls and haven't gotten a single misha, instead tingyun is now e6 -_-

Headcanon
They still breathe even tho they don't have lungs.
The air is turned into magic or something.
They can smell but maybe not exactly like humans.
The sense of breathing and smelling, tasting, hearing It's slightly different from humans.
Due to magic they can detect more smells than the average human.
Skeleton Monsters are more sensitive than humans.
The senses of smell and taste even hearing. It's stronger to skeleton monsters than humans.
Maybe it's survival technique the skeleton monsters developed to evolve.
All in all, skeleton monsters have higher sense of smell, taste and hearing than humans.

It was around 21.00 at night.
As Saejun was resting; he felt a stabbing pain at his neck, that traveled all over his body. His face scrunched in discomfort.
However as the intensity of the pain rose he wide opened his eyes. He felt someone tearing his soul and body apart.
As if the excruciating pain wasn't enough, he sensed the maggots crawling all over him. His expression morphed in that of horror. He felt them crawling in every spot of his bones. They were many.
He began removing said maggots.
Upon his panic to remove the maggots, he removed the IV. He fell off bed, cracking his shoulder.
He still had the feeling of maggots crawling all over him.
.
.
He half crawled and dragged himself towards the corner of the room. He tried to make himself as small as possible.
He kept removing the maggots from his body.
.
.
.
(Back to Ophelia and the others )
Lilian walked closer to Ophelia.
"I have the results; Papyrus was right. The stinger belongs to worm known as Skólix.
Its a dangerous worm for monsters but mostly for skeletons. It can cause:
blindness
impairment of the voice,
paralyzing of the body,
swelling,
dizziness,
fatigue,
headache,
fast soul beat,
formication*,
lunacy.
It depends!".
"Is there a cure?" Ophelia asked. She realized that it was the first time she ever confronted such a case.
She felt helpless but she will not give up! Farmy will go home safe and sound. No matter the cost! She won't let a worm take him away.
She came out of her thoughts when Lilian spoke.
"the cure.. is well... first of all trying to take care of the symptoms. Then using antibiotics, marrow dialysis, vitamins, herbs etc. Organic medicines will do him good as well".
Ophelia looked at the results and inspected them.
Lilian continued explaining. "We need to perform marrow dialysis (similar to haemodialysis) otherwise it will happen again and he might not make it.. His stats are already too low".
Ophelia was reading and seeing through the notes and pages.
Lilian went on with the explanation.
"It says here that it may cause:
Sepsis or other infections.
It can lead to his bones rotting.
If we don't do something..
He might loses his vision permanently.
He might suffer from a soul attack.
Even go insane
...possibilities are many.
One thing is certain.. If we don't cure him in time.. He will suffer.. This worm is tricky because it has two stingers...-".
Ophelia froze "-two...?"
Lilian thought for a second and he froze as well  "we removed only one..."
"....."
"....."
Uh oh.
"I'll prepare the equipment.." Lilian said running hurriedly.
_____________________
.
.
Agatha went to check up on him.
As she walked in, she saw the bed empty.
She tried to stay calm. She heard; soft ragged breaths, whining, groaning and the sound of bones being scratched.
She found him in the corner.
"Hey, is everything okay? Are you in pain?" She attempted to go closer but, he surrounded himself with blue attacks and bones.
Agatha slowly backed away. Among the blue attacks and bones she noticed; the panicked, frantic look on his face. The scratches all over his bones but mostly the hands and face.
She pressed a button on the wall and called Ophelia "He seems to be hallucinating, he clenches his head, he is in pain! I can't go closer he has surrounded himself with bone attacks".
As soon as Ophelia heard it her heart skipped a beat. She ran towards the room. "Farmy?!"
He was in the corner shaking like a leaf in strong wind. They could hear his bones rattling.
He was clenching his face and his bones.
"Sans.... we mean no harm, we are here to help you!"  Ophelia tried, but nothing happened.
He moved further into the wall.
Ophelia and Agatha looked at each other. Ophelia pulled her phone out and called Papyrus.
(Back to Papyrus & Axe)
They had just finished dinner. He was washing the dishes. Axe was drying and organizing them on the cabinet.
One plate slipped from Papyrus's hands and shattered into pieces.
Axe turned his attention to Papyrus and asked concerned "Are you okay? Did you get cut?"
Papyrus's hands trembled a little "Im fine! It just slipped..."
Axe felt a twinge of agony in his soul. Papyrus began picking up the broken pieces. Axe decided to stay silent.
He didn't know that Papyrus felt the exact same twinge of agony but stronger...
Papyrus silently picked up the broken pieces.
After a few minutes..
His phone rang. Both of them looked at it.
"Axe could you please pick it up?" Axe nodded.
"It's... Ophelia..." that caught both their attention. They silently looked at each other. He put it on speakers.
"Ophelia?" Axe asked slightly alarmed.
"We have a problem, I need you to come here". She sounded urgent.
"Is he okay?!" Papyrus asked quickly.
"He won't let us go near him, It's best you come here as fast as you can.. He has surrounded himself with attacks and he seems to have lost contact with reality".
"on my way!" Papyrus said as calmly as he could master.
He looked at Axe "Do you know a shortcut?". Axe smiled "Of course I do. Come!".
He held Papyrus's humerus and  teleported right there.
...........
.
.
They saw the doctors.
"Ophelia?" he walked towards her. She looked behind her "We can't go near him. Im afraid he might hurt himself more".
Axe attempted to ran close to his side; Ophelia grabbed his humerus "NO!! Not yet!" she said firmly.
Axe nodded. They stepped back leaving more space.
Ophelia looked at Agatha "Agatha go meet Lilian and help him prepare the surgery room. This worm has two stingers. We removed one. After we remove it, we will take him next room for marrow dialysis".
Agatha nodded and went into action.
.
.
Papyrus took a deep breath and walked towards him. Ophelia grabbed his shirt "Papyrus...!!"
Papyrus looked at her calmly. "He is my brother Ophelia, I got this! Besides, you called me for help" he assured.
Ophelia let go.
Papyrus quietly walked closer, he stretched his phalanges.
"Sans?" Papyrus tried.
.
.
Sans slowly perked up at the sound of his voice.
He removed the attacks from around him and summoned them behind Papyrus.
They were gasps but Papyrus was calm.
That was one step.
"He is just confused and scared. He means no harm, I'm fine. Stay back!" Papyrus informed calmly.
Among the chaos Sans attempted to talk but no words came out.
Papyrus's soul clenched. He decided to use their brotherly bond.
Their souls shone. Sans's (faint) bright green. Papyrus's vivid peach. He closed his eyes. When he opened them; they were in a dark room.
Sans was before him. On his knees. Papyrus knelt.
. . . . . . . . . . .
Sans: “...pap..?”
Papyrus: “Sans, what's wrong?”
Sans: “they won't leave me alone”
Papyrus: “They?”
Sans: “the maggots, they are crawling all over me... i remove them but they keep appearing more and more”.
Papyrus carefully shuffled closer to him. He noticed dark veins spreading from Sans's neck. He stayed calm. Abrupt moves will make things worse.
Papyrus: “I see...Sans, brother? Do you trust me?”
Sans “of course i do paps!”
papyrus carefully caressed Sans's bones "removing the maggots". Sans flinched.. But it felt nice.
Sans: “pap! It's dangerous, they will bite you too!”
Papyrus: “I'm helping you remove the maggots. They won't bite me, I'm wearing gloves. I won't let them harm you. Do you feel better? Do you want me to stop?”
Sans: “No please, it... it feels nice... thank you!”
Sans closed his eyes. His shoulders slightly relaxed. Papyrus's soft touch alleviated the suffering.
Papyrus: “Ophelia and the doctors are here to help you with that. Axe is here! I am here! Trust us! Trust me!”
Sans: “Papyrus I am scared”
Papyrus: “I am here! We are all here! We had our ups and downs like all siblings but, don't we go through everything together ? You won't be alone Sans! I promise! And I keep my promises!”
Sans: “...Will you forgive me?”
Papyrus: “Why Sans?”
Sans: “...For all this...”
Papyrus: “I am not mad! I am just worried, you would do the same for me. However, I forgive you! If this makes you feel better!”.
Papyrus stopped caressing Sans's bones and stretched his hand.
Papyrus: “we will take care of everything together! All of Us! I believe in you! I promise.. We got you Sans!”
Sans: “Thank you!”
Sans reluctantly stretched his phalanges towards Papyrus's stretched ones.
They were brought back to the room.
Papyrus felt weak phalanges taking a hold of his. He opened his eyes.
The bone attacks  disappeared. Sans was holding his phalanges.
Papyrus opened his eyes. He saw sans slouching forward.
Papyrus gently took him in his embrace protecting him from the world. He noticed that the, dark lines like veins were spreading faster than before.
Sans's body felt heavy in Papyrus's embrace.
Sans turned his head away from Papyrus. Sans coughed and spat rotten magic and blood.
Sans's magic began oozing again from his eyes, nose and teeth.
He was wheezing and shaking.
Papyrus gently picked him up and walked outside. Sans was slack in his brother's humeri.
Ophelia looked at them, her soul sunk at the depth of her stomach.
"Oh, no!" She gently held Sans's forehead and sternum.
She took a magic liquid from her pocket and injected it to Sans's humerus.
"Follow me Papyrus!" she urged.
Axe and Papyrus followed Ophelia. They went to the surgery room, it was enormous.
Sans squirmed in discomfort. A couple of tears ran down his eyes.
They looked at him sympathetically.
Ophelia injected a sedative at the side of his neck.
Papyrus laid him on the bed and attempted to leave. However Sans, despite the sedative, was restless.
Ophelia allowed Papyrus to stay in; "Papyrus? I'll have my nurses give you a robe to put above your clothes. Then I would like to keep his head as steady as you can".
Papyrus nodded.
The nurses helped Papyrus get dressed.
(those clothes doctors wear in surgery rooms, it's mostly for Sans's safety. What Sans has is not contagious).
Then carefully examined his neck. Papyrus was observing.
Axe was outside. After around 7 minutes they found the second stinger..
Papyrus was holding his head on the side softly caressing his cheekbones.
Sans made some inaudible mumbling and raspy sounds.
More magic oozed (eyes sockets, nasal cavity and teeth) and some of it was spilled on Papyrus's gloved phalanges. "It's okay brother!"
It took around 5 minutes for her to remove it. Blood, fluids and slightly rotten magic oozed.
Agatha gently patted the spot on his neck, with an antiseptic liquid on a gauze.
Ophelia held it in the light and inspected it.
This stinger was slightly bigger than the previous one.
Papyrus grimaced.
"Good job everyone! Now, Lilian, Hermione go active the machine for marrow dialysis in the next room".
Lilian and Hermione nodded.
Ophelia added a gauze on his neck.
Agatha gently wiped the oozing magic. Agatha took a syringe.
She carefully let small droplets of the green magic liquid close to his teeth.
Sans's magic absorbed it weakly.
Then Agatha added a breathing equipment (mask) on his nasal cavity and teeth. "I need you to inhale it. Deep breaths. You can do it".
(Note: she is doing it that way, so his soul won't be overwhelmed. By absorbing too close and too fast.)
Sans tried to follow Agatha's orders.
At first, his breaths were uneven.
Slowly he manage to control them and took deep breaths.
Agatha kept encouraging him to breathe.
Papyrus gently caressed the side of his skull.
Soon Sans breathing became even. He was now breathing slowly and evenly.
The magic stopped oozing. Agatha removed the breathing equipment (mask).
She kept with the syringe on his teeth.
After a few minutes, she injected a medicine in the IV.
.
.
"Papyrus?" Ophelia began. He looked at her.
"Farmy here, is a lucky skeleton, having a brother like you.. If it wasn't for you and Axe he wouldn't be here.. You did our job so much easier! We wouldn't have found it without you.. Thank you Harvey!"
Sans's soul shone. Ophelia noticed it, "Seems like he agrees".
Papyrus's cheeks had a dark pinkish hue. He smiled softly at the compliments..
He spoke lowly.
"Thank you and your team Ophelia! You and your team did your absolute best to help my brother, I know a simple thank you is not enough but.. Thank you for everything! You have my gratitude!"
Ophelia smiled.
Sans's soul shone weakly, both Ophelia and Papyrus felt a soft
“Thank you!” echoing in their souls.
Ophelia and Papyrus grinned.

🌷How will they deal with saying goodbye?
👯‍♀️How often do they see the others? Their other friends, too?
🖤Free space! Ask what you like, or request a random headcanon
<- hit us with your weirdest shot?
🌷shadow and omega b oth have very complicated relationships w the concept of good bye. they don't really age or die? omega specifically has the advantage of having very limited emotion and a highly logic mind, so he would not waste energy mourning and accept when things end. Shadow is def still trying to figure it all out. as of rn in universe ofc he doesn't have to think abt it much yet, he's doing his best to prevent his friends from harm right now, and he'd rather just face the problems as they happen. especially in shth he learned that theres no use thinking about the what ifs, because there's a right now that needs to be dealt with. the more he thinks about what differenciates him from others the less he can concentrate on what matters: the things he's got in common. like the ground beneath their feet, the star they orbit around, the wind that blows in their faces... He knows about the inevitability of death enough through maria, and he will try his best to not make the same mistake twice. he's determined to move on. ofc its easier said than done, especially in the conceptual event that rouge would fall in combat or even worse.. because of a mistake that he made.. but there are so many possibilities that i could analyze we'd be here for ever.........
rouge herself i think hasdealt with loss before, and she might have had some history with people that she has cut out of her lives. it might seem cold but i think she as a person has mastered the art of severing. whether its healthy is not the question rn... she def has a very soft spot for shadow and omega, tho as stated above these two are really hard to kill so there's not much to worry about in that regard, if anything it's a worry that might not plague her right now, but eventually she's going to think about what it means to be the one that's being severed by forces beyond anyone's control
anyways i dont wanna get existential this morning so this is where i stop
👯‍♀️I headcanon rouge has some friends she regularly meets in her bar (i'll let it be open if it actually belongs to her or if she's just a regular) and she would def visit knuckles every now and then. not saying she'd like. actually talk to him tho. might just lurk in a bush and stare at the master emerald
omega is a tough one to think about tbh. i admittedly don't have too many thoughts on him outside of being part of the team... this is telling me i need to dig more into his individual character tbh. what would he do for fun? when not with the otehr two?? Maybe he actually is like a gamer playing shooters and made friends in voice chat. no one believes him when he introduced himself as killermachine, they think its just a nickname
shadow likes solitude, but i really like that one bit in the recent twitter take over where he and knuckles stood in the forest for hours watching the plants and animals and hwo the light changes throughout the day while going through the leaves etc etc... theyre both very connected to nature in their own ways and i think they could bond over that. also about how they both prefer solitude. they can be alone together! they dont need any words, they can just exist next to eachother for a few hours and feel good about it. he also most surely hangs out with sonic every now and then. hangingout being racing and having a good fight together. though im sure sonic can eventually convince him to spend proper time together. for example making a race into a trekking tour where they go random places sonic knows or doesnt know yet, and they learn about the culture and obviously the food. shadow does seem like someone who'd like to learn about the planet, and sonic's the type of guy who's super eager to have someone to show around and explore with that can keep up!
🖤oh man idk weirdness is super subjective. uh. i wrote a fanfic once about how team dark and team sonic have a bowling competition

aaaaaaa so tumblr is not a functional website and it ate my next two drafted asks so prepare to get tagged in textposts but @brambleberrycottage sent Lord of The Rings (which will be v interesting bc im quite new to this franchise so pls dont crucify me i know nothing im baby lol) for the fandom ask game:
✨ send me a fandom and i'll answer with the following!
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)
↣ VERY IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE but i think i have no choice but to go with aragorn. idk i dont know enough yet about all the lore of the universe to unpack this but. idk. something about that specific Flavor of generational trauma and the concept of corrupted legacy/rejecting his bloodline and coming back to it and learning to accept it and himself and what that means for middle earth in the grand scheme of things and h ow he has to 'forgive' himself/his kind to help everyone else. idk idk. It Compels Me. ive only seen the movies 3 times and i have not yet read the books so im sorry if im saying anything stupid aldjfkfhf 😭
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)
↣ SAM!!! SAMWISE GAMGEE !!! SAMWISE THE BRAVE! he is so so friend shaped i just love him so much so many of his scenes make me ugly cry. he was my big toss up for blorbo in this ranking. but i want to squish him. you know ???????
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)
↣ NO idea who is underrated in this fandom but i have a Soft Spot for boromir. hes that type. the type we've discovered i always love. the traumatized man with emotional problems who is overconfident. akdjfkfjfkgfj and i KNOW he obviously has his faults but he redeems himself and he reminds us of his true character and he does right by those halflings in the end by god 😭😭 still sad abt it
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)
↣ again not that obscure probably idk enough of the more background ppl yet and idk who is popular but i have a soft spot for king theoden. his speech on the hill about burying his son always rly gets to me and he seems very noble and level-headed and fair, if not a little bit prideful at times. so interested in the concept of legacy and the way he talks about it and then how aragorn talks about it too and i always wonder if there is meant to be contrast/reference between them.
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)
↣ LISTEN..... DO NOT COME FOR ME BUT ITS KIND OF SORT OF SMEAGOL......hear me out. if faramir hadnt caused frodo and same to betray him i think he might still have been good and might still have been free of the ring at last. and idk if that lines up w the lore at all i may be talking out of my ass. im just saying i feel so so terrible about that twist happening to him bc he seemed so happy and free before the ring and then its just IMMEDIATE awfulness and crimes forever. he must be suffering. he died suffering. for the stupid ring. id like to think in another universe he gets something better.
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)
↣ im sorry this is literally frodo i think 😭 canonically and also fandom-wise. frodo ily i am sorry this burden ruined your life it PHYSICALLY pains me, literally, yet i cannot stop reading about it and thinking abt your struggles.
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)
↣ OBVIOUSLY SAURON OR SARUMAN.....NEXT QUESTION

☀️ its fascinating that you say P3 has shaped your worldview because... Well not to trauma dump here but back then when I discovered the game (it was back then when p4 was already out) i was... In a REALLY bad place and wondering about unaliving myself. I wont go into much detail but kids are trash man and teens are even worse. and then this game came around. With an aesthetic I really liked. i am not a native english speaker so it was hard for me at first but somehow this game just... /spoke to me/. A game about life and death and what it means to be alive and what it means to have a REASON to live, somehow... Convinced me to go a bit longer. I mean it when I say this: Persona 3 saved my life. And no other game can ever come close to such an experience. (Even tho from a quality standpoint P5 certainly is up there)
oh dude that is so valid thank you for sharing this. seriously though, im happy that youre here! and im sure many others are too! the ☀️ brightening lives and all that :]
yea i can see why p3 just clicked with so many people since it first came out. i was always curious on why it's so beloved by fans, when p5 and even p4 are literally right there with their overall better gameplay experiences. p5 literally got the franchise mainstream to insane heights lol. im... so glad i got into persona the way i did. of course, everyone's experiences w these games are different and special to them in their own way.
i got into persona 3 as an adult and as a result the lens in which i viewed the story's themes were heightened, in a way. as a teen i just know i would have reacted more volatilely i struggle to think about it LOL but both experiences would still be pretty intense. it's just that, as an adult there's more room to digest it when im not troubled by algebra hw. i was just more equipped for it (also i played omori two summers ago LMAOO). ofc i only turned 20 a few weeks ago LOL but i get why p3 means so much to people.
because it's like... 2000s nostalgia coupled with a game that figuratively holds your hand through the uncertainty of death yknow? p3 is a friend, basically. its entire thesis is based upon companionship (exactly what i highlight in an analysis i have drafted somewhere but HHH i dont want this to get too long lmao)
in the shaping my worldviews thing... its really more like it cemented my 'philosophies' :] like i said, equipped with the stuff i learned before, p3 having the message that it did just... hit super close to home! like yeah! that's what i've been saying dude!! kindness really is enough!!
"You don't have to save the world to find meaning in life... Sometimes all you need is something simple, like someone to take care of."
LIKE YEA GIRL THATS EXACTLY IT!! its so cool! i actually admire people who grew up with p3 because man if i heard this line ages ago... well, again, idk if i would be able to grasp it fully at the time... but still! this is so good, poetry in motion. and like u said its aesthetics are gorgeous and aim to capture the essence of its themes - and it did.
im a p5 baby like bro i love p5. soft spot for it. thats the closest persona game i "grew up" with and it came at such an opportune time for me, being a teen stuck between a rock and a hard place. typical. and p5 validated my teenage angst bs so much. its so refreshing to see a game's theme being rebellion. that was me i thought. those characters are going through something that similarly happened to me. teenage rebellion is such a fun thing to explore!
so p5 validated my struggles while p3 did something deeper than that, somehow. i think it just made me .. stronger? like it made me move on from struggles. "by remembering death you learn how to live" so... i guess p3 taught me how to live as crazy as that sounds. but you get me
persona 5 overall is great -- everyone agrees, like its objectively just a better game. but persona 3 ends up more beloved because of its subjective value as a piece of art. there's a lot of heart and soul to put into it.
it's more simple when compared to p5 at first glance, but simple doesn't mean less. which is why more people experiencing it will be nice to see

Hello hello my dear :D
I love your writing so i HAD to send a request! This is probably super niche and if you dont feel comfortable writing it thats COMPLETELY okay!<3
So i have a skin disorder that makes red spots appear ALL over my skin and it makes it feel itchy and rough(now in other fanfic its normally that the characters talk about "readers soft skin" and sadly i cant relate to that)
So i was wondering if you could write Sam Wilson x fem! Or Non binary! Reader with a skin disorder :D what prompt you use, if its nsfw or sfw and how long it is, is completely up to you! I would just love to relate to a fanfic again :,)
Much love <3
thank you so much for sending this and i hope i did it at least some justice, because i've been incredibly uncreative and unmotivated for a long time now— i too suffer from a skin condition mostly triggered by stress, which makes the skin of my shoulders and upper back very bumpy (and damn it leaves scars each time) so this was insightful to think about,, most fics aren't that inclusive unfortunately (which is nobody's fault!!) but anyway, i hope you have a wonderful day, and thank you again for dragging me out of my void!!

Fifty Bucks
sam wilson x reader
"It's impossible to feel inconvenienced by anything when Sam Wilson is your personal stand-up comedian and therapist at the same time. He might demand fifty bucks, though."
[1k] | honestly not much, super short and quick anyway, fluff, reader has a skin condition as lovely anon mentioned above, swearing, sam is a blessing and not in disguise at all
reblog and/or like for a kiss, feedback much appreciated! not proofread.
Tumblr media
You should've seen this coming.
But it's like your body and your mind operate on completely different terms sometimes, with no connection to one another whatsoever. It's impossible to control how your body might react to something that brews in your mind, and while for some it's not an issue to keep focus on; people that are blessed with one tiny little add-on to their existence like you have to be extra careful sometimes.
And good lord, you can never be careful enough.
As Sam paced around in your apartment, trying to keep your mind off of work stress and the general adulthood obstacles through a sacred quest of finding a show to watch before you could come back to the living room; you were mentally face-palming upon the sight of a red spot on the course of forming on your shoulder, and a few more down your arms. You can't control everything that happens around you, of course, but God, why is it that everyone else seems to be better at handling stress?
When you came back to the living room with a slight pout on your lips, fingers tugging on the material of your t-shirt to reveal a portion of your arms, Sam is perplexed. Remote control in his palm, he turned around to look at you, gaze flickering between your hand and your face. "Everything okay?" he asked, pointing towards the snacks laid out on the coffee table with the remote control. "It better be. I didn't pay for all those for nothing, you better cheer the hell up."
That pulled a chuckle out of you as you shrugged, stepping closer to him with a sigh, forcing the sight into his point of view. "Flaring up a bit, I think," a soft breath left you. "Figures. I was beginning to expect it at this point."
"What's that? Allergies?" he asked, following suit when you took a seat on the couch, relaxing right next to you. "Is it the lobster? Can't be, because I marinated that thing so good that people with seafood allergy could risk death to have a taste. I'm serious."
"No, it just happens." you chuckled softly, heaving a deep sigh before leaning back comfortably. "There isn't much that I can do about it now, it's just gonna itch and drive me crazy."
Sam hummed as a response, before pressing 'play' on the first comfort show that he came across, mind occupied with this newfound information. It must be annoying enough to go through, he thought, figuring that he shouldn't ask many questions— but he's a curious individual, he couldn't help it even if he tried. "Isn't there anything, like— like an ointment or something for 'em?" your slow nod caused him to hum, the intro of the show seemingly catching your attention, but not his, surprisingly, considering the fact that he often possessed the attention span of a goldfish. "Does it bother you?"
"It's not a pretty sight when the timing is wrong," you mumbled while reaching for a pack of sour candies on the coffee table before leaning back on the couch again. The cushions were soft against your back, but not as soft as your bed— which you were beginning to miss. "But I feel like I've gotten used to it, you know? Like, I learn more about how my skin reacts to certain things as time goes by and, well, I'm trying to manage it better."
"Not a pretty sight my ass," he whispered under his breath, causing you to laugh— along with him. "You could have Shrek skin for all I care. Or Avatar skin, whatever fictional world you're into— you'd still be one hell of a sight."
"Shrek skin? C'mon, you're just saying that."
"Watch it, I get real aggressive about affection," a pair of strong arms pulled you to his side and you giggled against the material of his shirt, trying to slap his arms away from you. "God was like, damn, a full package. Gotta balance it out somehow."
It was incredible, how fast Sam could get you laughing. But there you were, laughing at his antics with the show long-forgotten on the screen, his arms secure around you and a pretty smile on his lips. He was a man of acceptance, after all, and you were sure that given the chance, he could restore world peace in a week with his delicious cookouts and wonderfully thought speeches.
"Shut the hell up," you chuckled, shaking your head. "It doesn't even bother me, it's my own skin. Just makes me wish that I was a bit luckier."
"That's a good thing, you know, being alright with it." his fingers found your hair then, giving the area a few loving pats before carding them through your locks. It was as if his tone changed when he started to speak again, and you'd recognize that speech pattern anywhere. "Health-wise, accepting and embracing something kinda works like a placebo, you know? Whether it's a mental thing or, you know, something physical— when you're like, alright, I'm doing this and that to cure this thing, but at the same time, I'm not gonna be all like, damn this thing—"
"God, not one of these speeches again—"
"Listen, you ungrateful brat," his faux offense made you laugh again, as you watched him press his palm against his chest where his heart is supposed to be. "People don't pay therapists for nothing."
"I know, I know." you cuddled onto him more. "M'sorry, go on?"
"I will, for fifty bucks."
"FIFTY?!" you raised your head from his shoulder to look up at him, eyes wide in shock.
"Do you have any idea how expensive therapy is?! Thirty at most, pay up or shut up!"
