Fighting
A)n: Heyyyy... I'm back :)
Warning: none, angst, yelling, arguing
Gn reader Masterlist
Steven
He doesn’t yell
But it’s that exactly that makes it worse
He refuses to yell, but he’ll be a sarcastic little shit
“Oh really? How lovely.”
“Oh my dearest apologies, my liege, I didn’t realize I had to agree with everything you had to say.”
Steven won’t back down, he’ll keep this energy until he’s done talking about it and then he’ll ignore you
He won’t ask how your day's been, he won't hug you, he won't even look at you
And it’ll drive you crazy
The only reason this started was because Steven missed a date and didn’t acknowledge that he would be late or wanted to cancel
He was working late for Donna again, but this time it just set off something in his head
Normally you wouldn’t be too upset about him missing a date, seeing as he’s got other people to take care of and he’s got a shitty boss, but when you asked him about the date, he blew up
“God, it was one date, why do you have to nag me about it?”
“Excuse me? I wasn’t trying to nag you, Steven, I just wanted to know what happened.”
“You’re not my bloody parent, you don’t need to know!”
“Take that back.”
“No.”
And now you're in your room and Steven's sleeping on the couch
That night will give him time to realize he was in the wrong and he'll feel super guilty
When he wakes up with a stiff back and sore neck, he'll think he deserves it
He'll wait until you come out to get up
And then he's following you around like a lost puppy
He won't say anything, but he'll look so sad and just be following you everywhere you go
It would be cute if you weren't upset with him
You'll have to be the one to start a conversation, but as soon as you say a single word to him, Steven's apologizing faster than you can process
"Love, I'm so so sorry. I was an absolute knob, I was so stressed and upset yesterday and I know that's not a reason to treat you so terribly, but it was such a bad day. I promise I'll make it up with 3, no, 5 dates! We can do whatever you want today and tomorrow and all week! Please forgive me, darling. I know I don't deserve it, but please just give me another chance."
He looks like he's about to burst into tears and kneel for you
(Which would be hot in a different setting)
Depending on how passionate you feel about this, it might take some time to forgive him, but he's there every second of the day
Or if you want him to leave you alone, he'll respect that
You'll find little notes of lovey poems around the flat and your favorite snacks littered around the living room
He honestly feels like a terrible partner so when you do decide to forgive him, just give him a kiss and hug him
He'll cry and apologize a bunch more so just pet his head and tell him it's ok
He'll genuinely sit you down and ask if there's something he can do to get his 'anger issues' under control
Poor baby doesn't have anger issues, he just has a shitty boss <3
Marc
He yells
He yells loud and painful things
He doesn’t care, he can’t bother to care
He’s angry and that’s all he feels
He can’t think past it, it’s like he sees red
He’ll shout until his throat is raw, but he’ll get as many insults and sarcastic comments he can before that happens
He knows what he’s doing is wrong, he knows the only reason you’re arguing is because of him
But he’s not backing down
He wants to hurt you and he does
And it makes everything worse for at least a week
Marc came home absolutely wreaked from a fight and refused your help, preferring to drink and just sit there
If you weren’t so upset at the fact he refused your help and instead wanted the help of alcohol, you’d yell at him about staining the couch with his blood
You’ll either have to deal with Marc breaking out into an argument after the initial one, or leave to stay somewhere else
If you come back the next day, Marc will still be upset
He won’t start yelling at you again, but he’ll ignore you
And it really just stops there
It’s the silent treatment for a week
He'll make dinner for you and all that, but he won't talk to you
He'll stare at you, wondering if you'll be the one to apologize
Or he'll be staring at you to see if you're watching him
You're not
He'll stay silent for an entire week, festering in his anger and guilt until it overflows
And when you come back home from work or being out late, he's waiting for you
And he looks like a kicked puppy
It was no surprise Marc had no idea how to apologize and admit/accept his feelings but at this moment, none of that mattered
His guilt and the feeling of missing you outweighed his discomfort of voicing his feelings
He'll start with an apology, saying how sorry he was and how terrible he felt
He didn't give any excuse or reason for his anger, he just apologized and stood there
He expects you to yell at him, leave him, insult him
Just gently take him in your arms and kiss his cheek
You don't even have to tell him anything, he'll promise to never yell at you like that again
"If I do, you can hit me as hard as you want."
Marc will say, though if you did actually hit him, he'd probably cry
He'll be so genuine with his words and.the nail in the coffin was the fact that he promised
Marc never makes promises, even if he knows he can fulfill them
But he swears up and down that he will never yell at you again
And he does everything in his power to reverse or heal the damage his words did to you
Even going out of his comfort zone
He loves you so much and he doesn't understand why you're still with him, but he thanks every God and Goddess that you are
Jake
He’s dangerously silent
He’ll stand there completely blanked face, eyes set in a slight glare as you argue about something that was definitely his fault
Maybe he missed a date and didn’t bother to let you know he wasn’t coming or wrote off your worry about a few injuries and called you ‘clingy’ and ‘overbearing’
Either way, he doesn’t respond to your anger, just standing there like he didn’t care
And it hurt
Once you were done explaining how you felt or what Jake did wrong, he’ll roll his eyes, pull out a cigarette and sit in the couch
He’ll play the baseball game he may have missed or just watch the news to really set in that something that boring was more interesting than your feelings
“Do you seriously find the news more important than our relationship?”
He won’t look at you
“I can’t believe this. If you care so fucking little, then why are you still here?”
“This is my house.”
“Then maybe I should go if it’s just your house.”
“You should.”
And you do
You go to a friends house, or a hotel, somewhere that you can rest for the night because you’re obviously not going to get anywhere with Jake and you can’t stand his attitude
The second you’re out of the room, Jake curses and throws the tv remote at the wall
He throws everything that he can without any worry of breaking something or getting a noise complaint
He'll throw bottles, plates, pillows, books
Once he's run out of steam, he'll shamefully clean up everything, throwing glass away and putting pillows back
That's give him the time he needs to realize 'oh shit, I fucked up'
He won't come out and admit it instantly, no
He'll fester in his guilt and figure out what exactly he should say
He'll even plan out when he should breathe during his apology
And when you get home, no matter when that is, Jake it waiting patiently with breakfast, lunch, or dinner
He'll give a nervous smile and walk up to you, giving you a hesitant kiss on your cheek before pulling you to the living room couch
Your plate of food is already made and somehow still warm despite Jake no knowing when you'd be back
He'll give an awkward apology, explaining how he's still not used to being something more than a protector for Marc and Steven, how he's still learning to let people in, how he loves you with all his heart despite being such a monster
He might start crying, but he'll try not to show you
He doesn't want to show vulnerability, but he knows it's important in a relationship
So he'll just ask very quietly if he can hug you
Is you say no, he'll nod in understanding as tears fall into his lap
He'll quietly mutter another apology and just sit there, unsure as to what to do
If you say yes, however, he'll gently wrap his arms around your waist and bury his head in your neck
He'll silently cry, muttering 'i love you' over and over again until you say it back
Just rub his back and kiss his head, tell him you forgive him or need time to forgive him and he'll understand either way
He loves you with his entire being, almost like he lives off of loving you

cellbit's books to the ones he cares for: translations
Tumblr media
forever
page 1: forever, i don't even know how you must be thinking of me now. if everything has gone to plan, things must have been so weird that you've already started to suspect my infiltration plans. i believe that you're very intelligent.
page 2: the past few days have been a torture greater than i could ever imagine. what the census bureau did to me with that chainsaw couldn't compare to the pain to having to fight and lie every day to the people closest to me. feeling the deception hurts.
page 3: but it was the only way. the initial plan as to surprise you and the census bureau during the trial, but the vivo meme gave me the perfect opportunity to make a scene and make it look like i had some sort of motive to argue.
page 4: the census bureau doesn't understand feelings and wants too well, so this would be sufficient for it to believe my motives. it worked. i've never been so alone, but seeing you take up leadership and fighting so ferociously left me-
page 5: proud. everything is so much more difficult than i thought, but this was the only way for us to get any type of real information. after all this effort, all this fighting, all these enigmas, we still haven't found ANYTHING out about the federation. nothing.
page 6: i hope to be able to be there with you to explain this in person, but if you're reading this book, something probably went wrong. i was made to do things that i never would've done, and made to say things i never would've said.
page 7: and even trying to be apparent about my lies, even trying to make you guys suspect me, in the end, my plan . . . still went bad. and i know that probably no one on this island would trust me again. i burned all my bridges. but it was the only way.
page 8: i left a book to richarlyson in the beginning of it all, i didn't want him to have his heart broken, and maybe that was my biggest failure. but i was willing to sacrifice EVERYTHING to get this egg off this island. everything. and that's what i did.
page 9: tell bad i'm sorry for the things i said about dapper, to max about sofia, and to the french for the suspicion. i'm sorry for what i did to your XP farm, i know how long you and richas worked on it and every spawner that i broke was a-
page 10: stab to my heart. honestly, i think that they were already going to break it because it was SUPER broken [op] . . . but they made ME break it . . . to test if i was really willing to do anything for the federation.
page 11: tomorrow is the day that i'll officially become a part of the federation. it's my "initiation process". we'll finally going to have new information. i'm VERY anxious . . . and nervous.
page 12: i did all of this for richarlyson. i did all of this for felps. i did all of this for the ordem. i did all of this for you guys. i hope that it'll have been worth it.
page 13: explain to bad, to max and to quackity. and tell foolish that he's a gem of a person. sofia's new password is "Regret". and if those federation sons of bitches make the error of letting me live . . .
page 14: i will come back. keep your eyes open, forever.
Tumblr media
tazercraft
page 1: gentlemen, i know that our past isn't the best one. i know that you guys must believe that i've turned into that monster again. but that man is no longer me. cell died on that island. i'm not him.
page 2: i missed you two dearly, and wanted to be able to play more rounds of hide-and-seek, and trying to organize an EGG GYMKHANA with you guys in chume labs. i'm sorry for not having been able to. i love you both, and you're amazing parents for richas, too.
page 3: he loves spending time with you both, even if the two of you are stupid*, i think that no one enternains him more than tazer and craft. at least i won't have to take the red wool again.
*used endearingly
page 4: take care of yourselves, guys. and explode this census bureau bitch. yuo guys already took down herobrine, this shitty bear is nothing.
Tumblr media
richarlyson
page 1: richas, i tried my best. i'm sorry, son. i just wanted to get you away from this island. this place isn't safe, and the federation won't let us leave here. when i arrived in this place, i never-
page 2: thought that i would have to take care of someone . . . but what you've become was so much bigger than this. i'm sorry for not being able to be there all the time. every neuron that i burned with those cursed enigmas, all those hours that i spend locked up in that office . . .
page 3: it was all for you, richarlyson.
page 4: continue to trust in your daddies forever, pac, and mike . . . and if in any way i've managed to bring him back, in daddy felps, too. nevertheless, your dad quackity really toes love you and wants to protect you. i suspected him at the start, but i've heard the truth in your voice.
page 5: if i'm no longer here . . . daddy quackity now has my 20%, okay? i'm sorry if i've ever made you feel alone in any way. remember when i told you of a moment in my life that i felt completely alone?
page 6: solitude is worse than any prison. worse than what i went through with daddies pac and mike, and worse than this island. i'm sorry for having you suffer this, too. it's my biggest regret.
page 7: i love you, you big-headed* egg. see if you can learn to catch something that's not crabs. immortalyson forever.
*term of endearment, tends to equate to "stubbornly stupid"
bonus:
Tumblr media
the book cellbit gave to richarlyson before being attacked by the codes
page 1: i need for[the federation] to trust me. it's the only way. i love you. i love dad forever. i need that [the players] believe the contrary. it's going to hurt, and i'm going to do terrible things. but i will-
page 2: destroy [the federation] from the inside. all of them.
additionally, he left a book for roier, however forever did not open it/read it out to respect their privacy. cellbit titled it "guapito"

wolfwood has wanted to kiss you for a while. his inexperience decides to come front and center when he tries.
notes; 1.2k, woowoo fluff and him being clumsy and sloppy, tristamp coded.
Tumblr media
out of habit, wolfwood plucked a piece of gum from the blue package in your fingers. he had just expended his last cigarette; the bent tip still glowing hot amber in the sea of golden-beige underfoot. there were more scattered around, partially buried and snuffed, not an entirely unusual scene, but enough to lure you away from mingling around the campsite to where he stood, obscured by van while perched on a tire. distantly, through the erratic lick of bonfire and animated, drawled chatter from drunken others, you saw lighter spark and cigarettes extinguish in rapid succession.
"okay, spill," you tucked another flat stick of gum into his dusty blazer pocket, "you've been standing over here for an hour. what's wrong?"
"ain't your business. back up, would you?" wolfwood said, lightly sweeping your hand away as he stood to lean his shoulders into the van alongside you. he tucked the gum as far back in his teeth as he could, the particular taste astringent and burned his nares, and not in any way he enjoyed. "sounds like you guys were having a good time. should I be flattered that you came over here to be nosy?"
you puckered and tutted at him. "I'm always half expecting to find you face down in the sand from your lungs shriveling up."
"right now, I think you'd better worry more about spikey choking on his puke in his sleep--" he shifted his weight onto an arm he curled near his head, body towards you--"or, gramps breaking a hip trying to tell one of his shitty stories. surprised you didn't drink anything."
it was all in jest, all of it. there was a sense of familiarity in this situation; standing next to one another in the cold night, faraway warbles from your comrades in high-spirits an oddly lightening feeling. wolfwood didn't get enough moments like these with you, not without intrusive gazes and busybodies coming to foil the good mood he had built up.
"they'll be okay." you voiced a shared opinion while wearing a subdued smile, something a little more timid than he was used to seeing from you. "you've been out of sorts for a few days, though. I know we're not-- I don't know, super close, but you can still talk to me, nick."
oh, but he wanted to be closer to you. oh, he didn't know how to handle the patter behind his ribs, the heat swirling in his core and crawling up his face whenever you called him something other than nicholas. the longer he stared at your face, drawing closer to moment your eyes averted as though daunted by him, he wondered if you would accept him any other way than now-- the long-standing way things had always been between you both.
amicable. unserious. he would be leaving that behind in hopes of what he ventured towards would be reciprocated. half a thought he froze in place was to strand this entire thing he orchestrated; it was dumb and dangerous, there was no reason to fuck up the status quo, but yet he argued that there was-- and it simply was that he wanted more.
"maybe-- maybe you should take the edge off with a few drinks. it may do you some good." you were grasping for things to say now, but the fact that you kept trying, heels inhumed in sand whilst your weight relaxed into cold metal against you told him all he needed. you weren't in a rush, and neither was he.
coarse granules scuffed under his shoes as the divide separating the heat of your bodies narrowed, and he could see the moonlight catch a glimmer in your eyes. this was the closest you had let him get to you on purpose, in the past claiming that the smell of smoke stuck to him every bit the same as whiskey did to an alcoholic, or a weepy leg to infection.
"you really shouldn't be telling someone to trade one vice for another." he turned his head to spit out the gum, an ungraceful display that made him sputter when the taste of it landed fully on his tongue. it took him a moment to rebound, swallowing back another cough. "especially not when you're tempting with another vice."
you gave him an oblique glance. "hey, are you gonna make it? did you choke on your spit?"
this was not how he intending things to go. ordinarily, this was when he would've backed out, masked his embarrassment as some type of stunt that left you bewildered, while he would puff away on a new pack of smokes as he sulked.
tonight, however, he wasn't dwarfed by cowardice but rather that very same desire to have more from you. his arm bent against the metal near your head, dry fingertips a rough touch on your jaw as he tilted your face up to meet his lips. the wispy, dark tips of his hair feathered across your skin each time he leaned into you, imprints of warmth lasting until the next kiss and the one after that.
he tested the feeling, softly, at first, partially anticipating you to rip away from him with some exaggerated horror to downplay your uneasiness. the longer he went kissing you, leaning into the softness of your lips a little more each time, the more eager he became, spurred on by thrumming in his ears and heat and cold warring spots on the high planes of his face.
then, you swiveled your head out of his grip, letting his hand fall to your shoulder where he had stop himself from digging his nails into the roundness of them. he stayed close to your face, calming his shuddering breaths that were the closest thing he'd allow to verbalizing the ache of rejection on his chest. it was the sharpest knife he had every felt, every heartbeat was almost enough to make him sink his hand in there and rip it out.
"no?" it was a raspy whisper belonging to a parched, pathetic man who let his pride fall to the wayside for once. "that's all you gotta say."
"'no', what?" you said, plucking his sunglasses away by one of the arms before settling them into the same pocket with the slither of gum. "they were bothering me. it's nighttime, nick, you don't need them on--"
your back was flush to the van now, cool and hard, a jarring contrast to how hot his body felt slotting against yours. his lips were back on you, this time ravenous and feverish, sloppy and struggling to find a rhythm with you.
and, as your arms weaseled up to wind the back of his neck, he sank deeper into the warmth of your clothes and skin and smell, and felt it all so immensely it made him a little queasy. but, he didn't want it to stop anytime soon.

This is a very long rant. There might be spelling, grammar errors, or random words there because of autocorrect, and I might miss them since I'm a bit blind and dyslexic.
The way the fandom instantly chalks up female character hate to misogyny is so damn ridiculous, and both shows people here don't know what that word means, and they also don't actually give a damn about the actual misogyny that women suffer if someone hating or slightly disliking a female character sets them off. The prime examples of characters that people get called misogynists for are Mapleshade, Squirrelflight, and, surprisingly, Frecklewish. I can guarantee you that nobody who hates or dislikes these characters is misogynist, and it's rare that you'll actually find a Warriors fan who is blatantly misogynist while understanding how and why they are. For one, not everyone here understands what things are and aren't misogynist, and to stick that label to them for zero reason is super shitty. There are many reasons why people hate the characters listed:
Mapleshade: Generally, she is just dumb as hell, cruelly used Birchface's name to cover up her lies,showed zero remorse when brought to trial, and stupidly crossed a flash-flooded river when there was a bridge (already somewhat flooded when she got there, if I remember). But if not, it was still heavily raining. Blame everyone else for the things she caused and did; she killed Spottedleaf (this is why some people hate her, yes, lol, and frecklewish, and attempted to on Reedshine). And for grooming kids, and for those who will argue that she isn't, you're instantly wrong, and simply reading the books while also looking at the definitions of that word will prove you're wrong. I am saying this as a victim of this topic. Crookedstar and Tigerstar are her victims. While Crookedkit was vulnerable and tossed aside, she took advantage of this and later went in to exploit him, emotionally abuse him, and cause psychological turmoil and distress. She later went on to do this to Tigerkit. Since birth, she has been inside his head, telling him what to do and raising him to be the cold killer he is. She even admits in his novella that she's walked with him since birth. While her grooming isn't sexual, it's still extremely gross. I can't speak for everyone who hates her, but this is the biggest reason I don't like her.
Frecklewish: Yes, while she was definitely grieving, and while Mapleshade was definitely a ass and in the wrong for her lies, Frecklewish is far from innocent. She never truly loved those kits and only saw them as extensions of her late brother once the truth was revealed that they weren't really related and instead were the kin of his killer. That's what caused her to turn on them so quickly; her "love" was purely conditional. She then went on to dehumanize and call literal babies slurs, tell them that they don't deserve to be warriors, and later call for their exile without a second thought. No matter how angry you are, don't do that to children. Mapleshade definitely deserved her wrath, but not those kids. And it just gets worse as she watches them drown. I don't care how much people try to argue about it; she did. Her story directly lines up with what Nettlepaw tells Mapleshade. What Mapleshade thinks isn't a misunderstanding; this isn't something she came up with herself because Nettlepaw literally told her this. However, everything else Mapleshade says and thinks is totally unreliable. Frecklewish also doesn't at all deny that she watched them die and instead says, "I thought they'd be saved.". Her seeing the Riverclan patrol isn't an excuse for why she couldn't have gotten more help. Those kits aren't even half the size of a medium-sized rock, so how could three RC cats find them in flooded waters? And before anyone says it, nobody is saying that she should've just jumped in; you're purposefully missing the point. It's a fact that she and Oakstar played a large role in why they met their fate the way they did.
Squirrelflight: I can't actually give a reason why people would hate her because I don't care enough about her and because I don't usually read the main books. However, it's usually for reasons that don't even relate to Bramblestar. People are often called misogynists for hating her without anyone bothering to know why. Also, no, hating her because you like Bramblestar doesn't make you a misogynist. Not how that works. Now maybe if you denied that he abused her, then yeah, that's misogyny, but if you're a normal Bramblestar fan, then no, you're not misogyny.
And to add on
Nightcloud is a big one I see people also get called misogynists for. It's important to remember that not a lot of people read books and heavily rely on maps or other people's opinions and interpretations to get information. Let's not forget that the maps that woobify Crowfeather and demonize her play a huge part in why Nightcloud is treated the way she is. So I think it's majorly unfair to just label a bunch of Nightcloud haters who probably don't know the actual story as being misogynistic. Realistically, Nightcloud is just a lady. She didn't do anything wrong other than being overly jealous. Also, no, she did not hit Crowfeather; she just pulled him away. (Stop labeling her as an abuser, goddamn.)
I'm anyway done, but I just wanted to say that I think it's incredibly stupid to see people throwing around this word. I just hope you know that if you're randomly calling people misogynists for no reason, then you're part of the problem, and you're just another toxic asshole. Please fix yourself or get out the fandom.

Okay so - my request is basically the reader is a child whose family was murdered and I just want the slayers to adopt the child, human pet
NO pedophilia if anyone's wondering that's gross and you should leave 😍😍😍
Tumblr media
SLASHER TAKING CARE
OF A CHILD READER
CONTENT:
Rz! Michael Myers - Jason Voorhees - Bo, Lester and Vincent Sinclair - Asa Emory -
Tw: canon violence, mentions of cannibalism, murder,blood, probably mention of child abuse or neglecting (not from the slashers), reader is a kid so obviously this is a strictly father figure relationship,
A/N: hiya!! As always thank you for leaving a request^^. This is such a cute idea♡♡ I actually think most of the slasher could've been super nice fathers if they didn't you know, chose crime as a lifestyle. Baby reader is going to grow up unhinged as them but at least it will be fun. AS THIS LOVELY PERSON SAID, THIS IS STRICTLY PLATONIC. IF YOU TRY TO BE GROSS AND/OR REQUEST ME ANYTHING THAT INVOLVES A MATURE RELATIONSHIP WITH AN UNDERAGE READER I WILL FUCKING BLOCK YOU.
Tumblr media
MICHAEL MYERS:
Funnily enough he wasn't the one who killed your parents. Haddonfield is that wild even when it's not Michael making it wild 
Now, you're like literally a child so obviously all you were able to do was just hiding while the intruder in your house killed your parents 
You're going to grow so messed up I'm so so sorry-
Your family wasn't like super liked by other people in haddonfield and your parents tended to piss off everyone that interacted with them 
Your neighbours are used to your parents arguing ecc so they don't really think something bad has happened 
So no one realise you're alone in the house with your dead parents bodies
And you're, again, just a child so you don't really know what the fuck are you supposed to do
Yeah you have a pretty shitty childhood, I'm sorry. 
But fear not cause the boogeyman has come to save you
He broke into the house thinking he was going to find someone to kill and the disappointment was real and intense when he saw someone has already done the job
He decided to just go to the kitchen and try to find something to eat since no one was there to stop him
To be fucking honest the whole house reminded him a lot of his own and that was starting to creep him out
When he saw you in the kitchen he went stiff 
Connecting the dots he assumed you were the couple's child 
Michael Myers doesn't kill kids and we all know that. 
I headcanon it's because kids haven't done anything to anyone yet, they're too young to be bad. He takes his anger on adults and teenagers cause that's the age group of people who has let him down most of the time
You remind him of Boo so much and you kind of remind him of himself too 
When you saw him you told him that you're parents were sleeping so if he was a friend of them he needed to wait
That if he wanted to you could keep him company while he waited
You obviously didn't know what happen or you were just coping with death as your child brain was able to 
He should've guess that cause he did saw a blanket on the bodies 
That, the fact that you remind him of boo, the house remind him of his childhood and overall all of the shitty things were enough for him to want to keep you
Congrats, now the shape of haddonfield is your dad 
He's gonna get rid of the bodies of your parents without you noticing so you both can live there 
One could think he's going to be distant at first or either way it would be hard for him to like get used to you
WRONG. 
He feels like he just went back in time to when he still was able to hold his little sister. 
He knows that you probably feel really scared and confused right now so he tries to reassure you and make you feel safe as much as possible 
You're the only person to who he will show so much affection 
He never loses sight of you and if you go outside he's always watching you and keeping an eye on anything or anyone that could hurt you
The Boo title has been passed to you now. 
Even if you remind him of laurie, the boo nickname has a special place for him and it's give only to the ones he loves 
You're hid boo now but for a different kind of reason laurie was 
It's the kind of dad that says you have to sleep alone but then lets you sleep next to him anyways 
He absolutely loves playing with you and spending time doing things like drawings and masks ecc
Speaking of, he doesn't wear a mask when he's around you
Allows you to play with his hair 
He makes sure you're getting all your meals so he either steals food from the grocery store or steals from the victims
He really tries so hard to earn your love and to be a somewhat good parent figure 
He doesn't want you to stay just because you're scared, he wants you to feel like you're not alone and you have someone to protect you
He has instructed you to say his your uncle so you can keep going to school and everything without people being suspicious about a giant man following you around
Again, people believes the lie cause your parents weren't that great so they all think they just have left you or some shit 
Anything you bring him from school he's keeping it like it's the most important thing ever
He eventually learns how to cook dw
He loves any nickname you give him. His favourite being Mike but if call him uncle mickey he's gonna melt on the floor
You're such a positive presence in his life. He tries to take more care of himself because he knows you need him 
He hopes that when you'll be older you won't hate him when you find out who he really is
That would break his heart like literally 
And he tries his best to not let you become like him. He could never forgive himself if you 
JASON VOORHEES:
I want jason to be my dad
He would be the best dad in the world
As soon as he saw you he was like "OH NO YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE" 
the fact that you were not scared of him? 10/10
The moment you looked at him smiling and asking him if he wanted to play with you because you didn't know where your parents were he knew he was taking you home with him
He made you wait somewhere safe where you wouldn't be able to see what was going to happen 
Awkward moment for the future when he will have to tell you he killed your parents
He had to, besides in his head he justifies the whole thing by saying that if they were really good parents they wouldn't have brought you here and left you alone
Jason would be absolutely adores you and Pamela does to
His whole attention is always on you. Like he could never get tired of spending time together or listen to anything you want to tell him
He is going to childproof the cabin and will make sure that you never go outside without him next to you
HE IS SUCH A MOTHER HEN 
you can't even like trip over something that he's already fussing over you as if you're about to die
And when he sees you giggling at his concern he just shakes his head as if he was scolding you "Don't laugh y/n!! This is a serious matter right here!! You could've lost your leg!" 
Him doing that only makes you laugh more and he can't really get mad at you so he just tickles you as a punishment for making him worry
Someone said cuddles? Cause Jason is sure someone has said it
Seriously, you don't even have to give him a reason to get a hug from him. As soon as you reach your tiny arms to him he's already picking you up and holding you close 
Jason doesn't really need to be strict or serious to make you listen. Like he has such a gentle and effective parenting style 
He treats you like Pam used to treat him
The first time you called him dad he could've sworn he was about to die. 
You woke up from a nightmare and went straight to Jason's room crying
He was immediately awake and going towards you thinking you were hurt of something 
You weren't calling him Jason but papa and if he hadn't been so worried he would've cry from happiness 
The next day he thought you called him papa by accident so he didn't really expect for you to keep calling him that all the time
Every time you do he just picks you up and gives you lots of smooches all over the face 
He knows you're eventually going to find the truth about what he has done and he still does but he hopes that maybe by then he had convinced you how much he actually cares for you and how important you are for him
SINCLAIR BROTHERS:
As I stated on one of my last post I like the idea of Bo having the temper of an unhinged gremlin but I do not find it actually makes sense 
That being said 
Bo has never NEVER had a doubt that he was going to save you when you and your parents ended up in ambrose 
truth be told, if he knew you were there he would've let your parents go. Not even Lester noticed you
He didn't notice you were there until it was too late.
Your parents told you to stay in the car while they looked for Bo. You fell asleep waiting and when you woke up you were bore out of your mind so you decided to just take a walk around since it was a fairly small town
You got distracted looking around the house of wax
Vincent was the one that found you
When you saw him you just waved at him smiling brightly as you introduced yourself and promising that you didn't touch anything and you were just waiting for your parents to be back
"Mum and dad were looking for someone to help them with the fun..fen.. mmmh uh! Yes, the fan belt!!" 
Achievement unlocked: obliterate Vinny's will to live 
God if he felt like a monster now 
He kept you company and played with you while thinking how the fuck he was going to fix this mess
He sure wasn't going to kill you. At cost of making Bo mad he was not going to turn you into wax
You were the sweetest kid ever. Complimenting him for his hair, his masks and once you figured out for his art
When it started to get late in picked you up and went to look out for Bo with you
When Bo saw you he immediately knew what was going on
Both brothers agreed to not harm you in anyway and that meant not telling you about your parents too
Bo had to tell muster the courage and put on use his ability to lie to make up the most believable excuse he could find
He told you that he found out your parents were distant family they didn't knew about, that they had received a urgent call for something really important and had asked him and Vincent to take care of you until they come back
fortunately for him, as soon as he said he was family, you gave him your blind trust and believed everything he had said
So now you stayed with them
When victims are coming into town you stay with your "uncle" Lester out of ambrose. You spend those days playing board games with him, playing with jonesy and eating way too many sweets for vinny and bo's liking
Those are your favourite days and obv Lester is kind of your fav uncle 
Bo never said it openly but he was just over the moon with you. 
He doesn't like to play board games but loves to spend his free time playing hide and seek, tag and other games like this
He always lets you win but without making it too obvious 
He loves cooking with you and you're the only one he allows to listen him sing (see my post about bo singing) only because it makes you super happy 
He would be the one giving you rules and making sure you follow them cause he knows that if he doesn't his brothers are going to basically ruin you
That's the only reason he's not your fav uncle 
He's nothing like his parents and when he has to correct your behaviour his surprisingly patient 
He knows that sometimes you can be overwhelmed by big emotions and that is hard to behave even when you really want to so he's gonna do the best he can to tell call you out when you're not being good in a nice a respectful way
Even though at the end of the day he's going to spoil you rotten too cause he still feels guilty about knowing the truth of what he has done. Your parents weren't even that bad 
Vinny is going to encourage your creative side in any way possible. He genuinely has so much fun doing crafts with you 
Everything you do is going to be put where everyone can see it in the house of wax, that's how proud he is of your work
He makes sure you don't go down his workshop when there's someone that needs to be turned into wax. And when there's no one he childproof everything so you can spend time with him doing anything you together 
I'm sorry but Bo would put you in a child leash- 
HE JUST DOESN'T WANT YOU TO GO RUNNING AROUND AND RISKING TO HURT YOURSELF
All of them are super protective of you and do the best to give you education and cover all your basic needs
Everytime you mention your parents all of them avoid your gaze and just straight up change the subject of conversation 
When you'll eventually find out it's gonna be heartbreaking so they just enjoy spending time with you while they can 
ASA EMORY:
I feel the need to remind you to never, under any circumstances, give this man a child. Please, just- don't. 
Now let's give him the responsibility of raising us, shall we? ♡
I know I KNOW that he was about to kill the kid in the first movie but I CAN FIX HIM. I CAN MAKE A FATHER OUT OF HIM
Initially I wanted to do Thomas but I just like to make my life harder than what it should be 
So Asa as a dad (you see what I did there right?) 
You were probably the kid of one of the families he targeted. 
Listen, I'm going to self insert here cause I want to have a father that is actually there too 
He first saw you while doing his fake "disinfestation" job at your parents house 
Your parents were that type of parents who wouldn't even notice if their kid was there or not because they were always too busy with so many things. 
You know they loved you it was just that they had to work and stuff 
So you ended up being that type of kid who's always alone, has to always find a way to entertain themselves and overall grows up really fast and by themselves because no one is there to help them
While Asa was working you kept looking at him, curious about what he was doing but too shy to actually go and talk to him cause you didn't want to bother him
Admittedly you were kinda sad that he had to kill all the bugs. Not because you liked having them around but because you kinda felt bad for them plus they were fun to draw sometimes
He noticed you were there, not too close for the chemicals to harm you but not too far to not be able to see what was going on
He had this weird feeling looking at you. 
You were sporting glasses too big for your face, your hair was tied but not as good as it should, your clothes were clean but they had wrinkles
He's really good at reading people and the only thing he needed to confirm his suspicions of you being possibly spending too much time alone was your expresion 
You didn't seem angry but your big eyes didn't had the childish light kid's eyes should have, and your whole face was relaxed but at the same time it hold a stern look
He had the overwhelming feeling of looking at something familiar and he didn't like it one bit. 
At soon as you noticed he was looking at you, you just waved shyly at him before running away
You came back a few minutes later with some juice for him and used it as an excuse to talk to him about the bugs
"Does it hurt them?? I…I mean the spray, does it hurt? I'm…I'm kinda afraid of bugs but they're cool..I wouldn't like it if it hurt them.." 
You left the bug man speechless 
He had to paid close attention because of how fast you were talking 
You just wanted to have someone to talk with and since you didn't really had any friends you tended to talk a lot with the adults that were around you
He looked at you with confusion and surprise all over his face
"It doesn't…it's like going to sleep. I promise I would never hurt them" he didn't even knew why he was talking to you but he felt like he couldn't just straight up ignore you
You spent the whole day with him. You didn't really bother him that much cause you were actually pretty quiet and the only time you speak to him was to ask questions about bugs or to ask him if he wanted something else to drink
He did had to admit you were a really nice kid and he actually liked talking with you about bugs ecc
He even asked you to show him your drawings 
When he finds out that later that day you were going to stay with some relatives because your parents had to work he was actually relieved 
He really didn't want to kill you
That relief didn't last long because your parents decided the last minute to spend, for once, some time with you at home
He find out too late though 
He saw you on your bed sleeping when he was placing the traps 
So one thing leads to another and long story short; he has fucked up
You woke up, he didn't notice it once again (Asa you're being a fucking idiot omg), and he saw just in time before you triggered one the traps in the kitchen
Your parents are long gone and honestly he doesn't even know what to do with you
You looked at him with your eyes wide in surprise
He expected you to scream and be afraid but surprisingly you recognised him even with the mask 
You just thought that maybe he forgot something at your house, came back to get it only to find every single part of the house full with traps. That maybe, seeing that, he was trying to help your parents
You didn't question the mask too much cause you were worried about other things 
"Mr emory??? I..I heard mum scream, are you going to help her??" 
Damn EMOTIONAL DAMAGE RIGHT THERE
is the first time Asa feels so fucking bad and he's having none of it
Almost tempted to just kill you to make it stop but he does not 
He just takes you outside and tells you to wait there. Goes back inside and finishes the job faster than what he would normally and then comes back to you
He's going to be really straightforward about it and tell you that your parents are dead. He's not gonna tell you he killed them but still
Okay now onto what we all want to know. 
He has to take you with him obv. Making everyone believe you have died with your parents
When I tell you he's gonna be so mad about it cause he hates the idea of being soft
And you're kind of remind him how careless he has been with his last victims
The first few days He's going to avoid you. Being around you only when necessary like to cook you meals ecc
You're kind used to it and since he's the only person who has decided to take care of you (since you don't know that everyone thinks you're dead) you're not about to complain
He could've perfectly leave you in a foster home and you know that 
Man can't catch a fucking break cause he tries so hard to not get attached to you but seeing how you naturally adapt to being so alone, the fact that you don't don't for anything and you haven't cried or talked about your parents in front of him but hold it until you knew you were alone is killing him 
He hates it because he did the same thing as a kid, the only difference is that he didn't have anyone. No one wanted him 
When he comes to terms with the fact that he actually feels bad and he cares for you he's going to change completely 
It start with small things like eating breakfast together, asking you if you want to come with him to buy groceries ecc
He slowly starts to approach you more and more until it's comfortable for both of you
You're going to be homeschooling by him 
He starts to like play with you, talking with you more, read you books you like
He's never going to be too busy for you. If you need him he's going to drop everything to do whatever you want 
Helps you to overcome your fear of bugs 
Take you out for ice cream and a walk to the park once a week. Is like a tradition for both of you, eating ice cream and try to identify the bugs you find around the park 
He may not be the most affectionate person ever, you may never see him as a father and he is not trying to take that title but he will do everything to make you feel safe and seen
He truly shows how much he cares about you and makes an effort everyday to be the good example and healthy presence you need to grow up right 
He eventually tells you the truth when you're old enough but until then he's your best friend Asa and nothing could ever ruin that

Do a Steve Harrington smut in the back of scoops ahoy where robin has to cover for you guys :)
I'll give it a go :)
here ya go love <3
Steve Harrington x fem!Reader
A/N- This is my first writing work so it's honestly pretty shitty and needs some work. I would LOVE to hear feedback and any constructive criticism-emphasis on constructive bc i'm sensitive so be nice, ty :)
Summary-You help Steve feel better after a long day of work and a fight with his parents
Warnings-SMUT, little bit of sad Steve and one tired af Robin, mini covo about shitty parent-child relationship 😒, very impatient reader
Tumblr media
You walk through the Scoops Ahoy doorway in search of your boyfriend. As you make your way over to the counter you notice that Robin looks a little frazzled. She looked like a shell of her usual self. She was hunched over the counter, beads of sweat sliding down her forehead, hair sticking to the sides of her face taking slow and deep breaths trying to ground herself.
"Hey Robin.....long day? You look like you just got ran over by a truck......or two."
"Yeah, uh the boss just fired 4 people because she caught them all smoking weed in the bathroom." Robin breathes out with a slight chuckle at the end. "Right now it's pretty much just Steve and I working, besides this one really old woman who is pretty much on her fucking death bed." Robin huffs out, rubbing circles on her temples.
"Jesus Robin, maybe you should take a damn break, how long have you been here?"
"Since uhhh" She twists her body around to read the clock hanging on the wall. "Since around 6."
"Well where the hell is Steve?" Her face falls slightly at the mention of his name.
"He's uhh, he's in the break room, he's pretty beat too. But luckily in the past 20 minutes or so things have finally died down. I've just had a lot of cleaning to do. You should go back for a few and try to cheer him up, he's been in a pretty shitty mood today. I can cover up here for a bit."
"Alright I'll go check on him, but if you need help out here yell back and I'll send him out." You smile at her before turning on your heel, heading for the break room.
You slowly push open the door, peering your head in inch by inch.
"Steve?" you softly say. "Baby, are you in here?"
Turning the corner you finally see him. His limbs are sprawled out as he lay on his back on the disgusting old tile of break room floor, his arms covering his eyes. You walk over to him immediately, kneeling beside his body.
"Hey, what's wrong love? Robin told me you weren't doing so hot today." You say, gently removing his hand from his face to hold it in your own, caressing his warm skin with your thumb.
"I'm sorry I haven't been able to call today, I've just been super busy at the store and I had a huge fight with my parents this morning, i-i-it's fine i'm just uh...i'm just taking a minute." He reaches up with his opposite hand, dragging it down his face, exhaling a large puff of air.
His voice sounded slightly hoarse, you assume from the yelling and arguing with his parents. You knew Steve had issues with his parents, he never kept his family dynamic a secret from you. But anytime something happens with them it never fails to send a sharp pain in your chest at the thought of Steve being unhappy. Though it doesn't happen often, when Steve fights with his parents (usually his father) he goes dark. Not wanting to talk or be around anyone for days on end.
But since you two started dating he's turned to you to lift his spirits. He always tells you how much you help him feel better whenever he's going through something.
Rising to stand, you reach for Steve's other hand, pulling him to his feet. "I'm so sorry love, I know how they can be. what were you guys fighting about this time?" you ask, gazing into his deep, carmel brown eyes, a soft frown settling over your features. "Ahh just college bullshit, none of it matters anyways. I'm much better now that you're here." He sighs, pulling your left hand to his lips, placing a few soft kisses on your knuckles.
Steve's Dad has always had high expectations for Steve, though rarely being home when he does take the occasional pit stop at the Harrington house it's never for long and it's never good for Steve.
"It does matter Steve, everything about you matters. Your problems are my problems too, if you need to talk about it i'm always willing to listen."
"I know baby and I always appreciate when you let me talk, but right now i'm so sick of thinking about it, I just want to be here with you. I want you to be the only thing on my mind."
"My beautiful..."
He brings both his hands to the sides of your face, pressing a soft kiss to the tip of your nose.
"Caring..."
then a kiss to your cheek.
"Insanely sexy, girlfriend."
Tilting your head up with his hands, placing a final slow kiss to your lips.
Moving your arms to rest on his shoulders, you feel them relax more and more the longer his lips remain on yours. After a few seconds he pulls away smiling.
*I guess I really do make him feel better.*
The thought brings a blush to your face.
"Oh shut up Harrington, you're just trying to get in my pants." You joke with a giggle.
"And if I am?" Steve retorts. Eyes challenging your next words.
You pause, trying to gauge your next move.
"And if you are........I'd be very willing to help you relieve some stress." You say, the right corner of your lips slowly turning upwards into a small smirk.
Steve's breath hitches, lips parting slightly, hot air fanning your face being clearly affected by your words. You pick up on his irregular breathing and decide to take it a step farther with a phrase you know will REALLY get him going.
You slowly move your head to the side of his head until your lips are brushing his ear.
"I want you to use me Steve." you whisper in a sultry tone, sending a chill down Steve's spine.
Almost immediately after finishing your sentence, Steve's hand grips the back of your neck, pulling your lips to crash into his. He inhales deeply through his nose when you both collide. Lips fitting together like a puzzle piece, pulling away momentarily before fitting together again from a new angle. Lips sliding over each other in a sort of dance.
You moan into Steve's mouth when he moves his hand from the back of your neck, sliding both hands down to grip your ass. He uses your moan as an opportunity to slip his tongue into your mouth to meet yours.
"Steve" you whine out.
"What Y/n? What's wrong baby?" stopping immediately, looking over your face worriedly. Scanning for any discomfort or pain.
"I'm fine, I just don't want Robin to walk in on this, let alone hear this shit. It'll scar her for life, she'll never be able to look me in the eye again."
"Y/n....I could give a shit about Robin or anyone else right now. I just need you.....Please baby?"
You take a step back from him and start towards the door.
"Y/n?" "We don't have to Y/n, I'm sorry we c-"
His worries cut off by the sound of the lock clicking. You turn to face him, trying not to smile.
"Oh-" "I mean yeah I knew you weren't gonna walk out on me, I just-"
"Steve?"
"Yeah?"
"Just shut the fuck up and kiss me." You state harshly, pulling your top off.
He stands staring at your exposed chest for a few seconds.
"Yea- um yeah I, absolutely I was ju-"
Steve's babbling was cut short by your lips reattaching to his. Only this kiss was hotter. Tongues clashing immediately, breath hot and heavy. Steve's arms scoops you up, slamming you to sit onto the break room table, almost knocking the wind out of you. Your arms reach up to rest around his neck. His mouth finds it's place back on yours, hands sliding down the outer part of your exposed thigh, massaging the skin while moving his lips to your neck. Biting and sucking on the spot under your ear that he knows you particularly enjoy, causing you to let out a soft groan. His fingers inch their way closer and closer the where you need his touch most, skirt being pushed up your waist in the process. His thumb grazes your aching clit through your panties this time an loud moan escapes your agape mouth.
Steve's hand immediately flies up to cover your mouth. "You have to be quiet baby, you're gonna get us caught and I've barely even touched you yet."
His fingers curl around the waist band of your lace panties, ever so slowly dragging them down your thighs. Kissing down your leg, falling to his knees when he gets down your calves.
Finally pulling your panties all the way down, he tosses them over his shoulder, not paying attention to where they land. He grabs your legs placing them gently over his broad shoulders, gaze rolling down your body, admiring the position he has you in. Your patience runs thin watching him just stare at you while you're practically dripping onto the floor with anticipation.
"Steve, just touch me already or I will."
He immediately obliges, thumb making full contact with your clit as he begins rubbing small ,slow circles. Your head falls back, biting down on your lip to keep from screaming out in pleasure, a quiet groan still slipping through.
"You like that baby?" Steve whispers, hot breath fanning your pussy. Eyes gazing into yours.
"Fu-fucking hell, Yes!" You barely manage to push out.
His thumb removes from your clit, middle finger trailing down to slowly push into you. Tongue replacing where his thumb was, he gets to work. He alternates between licking and sucking on your clit, finger pumping in and out of you, slowly adding in another finger. His unoccupied hand reached up to pull the cup of your bra down, gripping your tit. Gently pinching and twisting your nipple before sliding his hand back down your stomach.
"Steve" you mutter.
"What baby? whats wrong?" He halts his movements, worrying he did something wrong.
"NO, no don't fucking stop, I need more."
"What do you need from me baby?"
"I need to feel you." You pause, taking a few deep breaths.
"I need you inside of me."
He grips the top of your thighs, using them to push to his feet. Your thighs part for him to stand between them, legs hooking around his back. His lips went back on yours only for a moment before he pulls away, forehead resting against yours.
"I gotcha baby, i'm gonna make you feel good."
He pecks you once more before reaching for your skirt. You grip his shoulders so you can lift your hips, helping him to slide the skirt off your body. Your lips reattach, his tongue sliding in between your lips. He simultaneously reaches around your back to unclasp your bra with one hand, letting your bra fall onto the table beside you. You reach out, pulling his scoops ahoy uniform shorts down his legs. He kicks them off his feet and pulls his dick out of his grey boxers.
You could see just how hard Steve was. Veins bulging out, tip leaking. You wanted it in your mouth so bad. But you wanted it inside of you even more.
You stared him in the eyes as you licked up your palm, hand reaching to grip his cock. Steve lets out a loud groan at the contact. Your thumb swirls around his tip, spreading his pre cum. You pump his dick slowly before rubbing his tip through your folds. His hand grips your wrist, taking himself in his hand. Your hands grip his shoulders in preparation of what's to come.
"You ready baby?"
You softly nod your head yes. Upon your signal he licks his lips before slowly pushing into your body, both moaning out at the sensation. He hold still for a minute allowing your body to adjust to his size. You give him a nod to let him know that he can start moving.
He pulls out of you until he's almost all the way out before gliding back in. Even from the first stroke your mind is sent into a spiral. His thrusts gradually increase in speed, hips rolling into yours, pelvis rubbing your clit with each movement.
Your moans fill the room despite your best efforts, as he works you closer and closer to your orgasm.
You're were both so caught up in the moment that you almost didn't hear Robins voice through the frosted glass window. But then it hits you...Robin's calling for Steve's help.
"Hey guys, quit fucking around and get out here, It's getting busy again!"
Shit.
You look worriedly into Steve's eyes. His hips never faultering.
"Uh, Yeah! I'll be- I'll be out in a second Robin!"
"Steve stop, Robin n- Mmm, Robin needs help out there."
"I could give a shit about Robin, I'll help her after you cum." He says softly between thrusts.
His hips pick up speed, the table about to tip over from how hard he's fucking into you. He lifts your right leg over his hip, the new angle allowing him to hit deeper inside of you causing you to nearly scream out.
One hand covers you mouth, the other gripping for dear life onto Steve's bicep. You slip the hand from Steve's arm to make fast, hard circles on your clit.
A moment later you're both on cloud 9. Both of your loud moans fill the air. Lips clashing in an attempt to quiet your moans, but you knew that Robin had to have heard that.
You both sit there trying to catch your breath. Steve slowly pulls out of you, reaching to grab a tissue to clean you up.
"That was so fucking hot." You laugh out, slipping your panties and skirt back on.
"I know." Steve smiles. "I love you so much."
"Hmm, I love you more handsome." You beam up at him.
Once you're both dressed, you make way toward the door. Stopping Steve just before he can push it open, you pull him into a final sweet kiss.
You finally break out of you bubble, pushing open the doors to see Robin running around scooping ice cream and throwing toppings around frantically. She notices your presence and turns to glare at you two.
"You know you guys weren't discrete at fucking all right!? Steve you owe me so much."
"Yeah, yeah I know. Sorry."
He turns to say goodbye to you.
"Hey, I'll see you later yeah?"
"Of course, baby." You say before turning your head to whisper in his ear.
"By the way, your shorts are on backwards."

The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan, Episode 3 - Haruhi Suzumiya!!
Despite my wishes for Yuki to be allowed to be happy, my character is here to fuck everything up and make everyone miserable. Let's go!
Given the lack of supernatural forces in this show, my money's on Love Triangle antagonist.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh thank Haruhi, she's still an asshole. Gonna be honest, the pleasant evening Yuki had with her last episode made me nervous that they'd sanded her edges off.
I'm still so nervous. I can feel her getting ready to create conflict.
She's here to get revenge against Yuki for stealing her God powers, by stealing Yuki's boyfriend. Who. Yuki. Also stole from her.
...okay so if Haruhi drowns Yuki in the nearest river it could reasonably be argued to be justified but I still don't wanna let her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
PROCESSING. PROCESSING. PROCESSING.
Tumblr media
SYSTEM CRASH
Tumblr media
This program has performed an illegal operation and had to be shut down.
You can take the girl out of the robot but you can't take the robot out of the girl.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Sorry Haruhi but we don't have time to talk about aliens because we need to meet up with Ryoko Asakura."
The show did that on purpose. XD And I appreciate it.
Tumblr media
She was going to kidnap Santa Claus! Not just meet him. She planned a full-on abduc--
Yo is that a bag of CEMENT!? Haruhi. Haruhi. I desperately need you to explain what the plan last night was.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Haruhi rejecting Yuki's gratitude on the grounds of, "Fuck you, I'm a selfish prick so you go ahead and take this credit for your personal achievement on yourself. The meanest possible way to build another person up.
This resonates with me so hard. Like. Actually, Haruhi's wrong. This is Individualist propaganda. It's okay to lean on others for support. Humans are social creatures.
But Haruhi's a selfish, violent misanthrope. She's young, stupid, and full of herself. So for her this is super endearing. I love that Haruhi gets soft moments but they're always filtered through the lens of Haruhi's personal shittiness.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
HAHAHAHA It's okay I don't think she saw us HAHAHAHAHA
This show is so fucking good oh my god.
Tumblr media
Every time I see Ryoko's cooking in closeup, I'm reminded of the fact that anime food must always, always be the most high-resolution incredible art imaginable. We don't want a repeat of the Bad Cabbage Incident that brought cultural shame to anime as a whole.
Thanks to badly drawn cabbage, drawing food so photorealistic that it ends up higher-quality than the animation around it is now a way of flexing in anime.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh shit, we're officially her friends.
It was a plot point in the Disappearance movie that Haruhi would have trouble getting in the school. Visibly wearing another school's uniform makes it clear that she's not supposed to be here.
How will Haruhi solve that problem this time around?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fuck you, rules are fake. Anything is legal if you sprint fast enough.
XD I am so anxietous about my character being back in the show and yet so happy to see her. That's mah girl! She's here to make trouble!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay I said it before but.
I was worried last episode that they were sanding off Haruhi's edges. Making her nicer. Less shamelessly criminal. But no. This episode has put all of those concerns to rest.

Haruhi changed both herself and Itsuki into Kyon Gym Clothes Haruhi and Itsuki so fast I could practically hear her saying, "Oi! Kyon! We need to wardrobe-reference the movie so GIMME." In the movie, they had to wear Kyon's gym clothes because they were out in the streets trying to figure out a way to look inconspicuous with limited resources.
Here in the school building under no pressing urgency and with Haruhi's criminal proclivities, I feel like there were a million other ways they could blend in. They're doing this just because they did it in the movie.
Not a fan of that. For the last two episodes, the show's done a great job of blazing its own trail, which is what I like to see out of AU stories. While Haruhi shouting "Kyon! Gym clothes! Now!" so she can change into one of her other Movie Costumes feels inorganic and overly referential.
Tumblr media
I love that Itsuki has taken Kyon's job of being Haruhi's luggage. And yet, there is an unmistakable flaw in Haruhi's approach. Well. Two flaws, given that the other is "This is not a magic world".
My bestie likes to feed birds on our balcony. They leave out a bowl of seed, and the birds come by and eat. They also leave peanuts for some of the larger birds like blue jays. Consequently, we have birds coming and going from our balcony all the time.
Our cat is very intrigued by this. During the day in spring and summer, he loves to go out on the balcony and hunt the birds. He can't wait to get his claws into a nice, juicy bird. The idea captivates him.
So we let him out onto the balcony and he hunts. By which I mean, he climbs up on the table and sits his ass next to the bowl. In plain sight. Supremely visible. And then he waits.
And waits.
And waits.
To date, he has never caught a bird. For some reason, the birds are reluctant to come to the balcony when a visible predator is sitting next to their food bowl. His enthusiasm is great, but he has produced a 0% success rate not because birds don't exist, but because birds will not approach under the conditions he creates.
That's her. That is Haruhi. She's dragging Itsuki around by the ear so that she can be nearby when he reveals his true secret nature. Failing to realize that he will never reveal his true secret nature (even if he still had one) so long as she is around to see it. That's what makes it secret.
Last night's Santa experiment is very much the same. Santa never sprang Haruhi's trap. But is that because Santa does not exist? Yes. But more importantly, even if he did exist, Santa would be unlikely to drop what he's doing to go to a random park just because some girl standing nearby wrote a message saying "HEY COME HERE I HAVE CAKE".
Haruhi's methodology needs a lot of work. Her self-absorption deprives her of the subtlety required to create an effective trap.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
YUKI NO
DO NOT SURRENDER CONTROL OF YOUR CLUB LIKE THIS
You worked so hard for this. Do not let Haruhi take her powers back control of your club away from you!
Ryoko! RYOKO COME DO SOMETHING
Tumblr media
Oh thank Haruhi, Ryoko is here to fuck up Haruhi. We're good. Everything's fine. That girl doesn't even go to our school. There is no way Lawful Menace is going to stand for this.
Tumblr media
SHE STOOD FOR THIS WHAT THE FUCK
Ryoko no you were our last hope
Tumblr media
I do admit, I'm interested to see where this is going to go. Ryoko didn't get to interact with Haruhi, like, at all back in the original show 'cause it was so Kyon-centric. And also 'cause she died moved to Canada.
I said before that I like it when AU stories go in new directions rather than trying to skew too close to the original source material, and letting Haruhi and Ryoko hang out is certainly a new direction.

Rango: "Something that happened yesterday..."
Hariet: "What happened yesterday?"
Rango: "... I don't wanna talk about it..."
Spewart: *Feels bad* :< "... Hey Rango?"
Rango: "Wha-...!! Are we almost home???"
Spewart: "Uhhh... Sorta! Just three more minutes or so!! Why...?"
Rango: "I gotta go to the bathroom!!!"
Spewart: "Oh!! Um..."

Tumblr media
Spewart: "Rango... Buddy, are you okay?"
Rango: "No."
Spewart: :< "... Listen, I think that maybe you should consider going to the doctor... Something is clearly wrong, and I don't want to see you suffering..."
Rango: "I know that..." *Rolls over to face Spewart* "... Have Hariet or Topper said anything...?"
Spewart: "I don't think so... I told them to go clean the backseat and leave you alone for a bit, so I don't think-"
Tumblr media
Rango: "Wha-"
Spewart: "Enlarged prostate...? Sis, isn't he a bit young for that??"
Hariet: "Maybe. But it's still a possibility!! Anyways, some potential explanations for why you are-"
Spewart: "I'm pretty sure Rango has a UTI."
Hariet: "What?? No, don't be ridiculous!! I'm never wrong about these sorts of things!!"
Tumblr media
Hariet: "You don't just develop incontinence overnight, dumbass!"
Topper: "Well, maybe he's always had it, but it just got worse due to some kind of trigger?"
Spewart: "I still think a UTI is the most viable explanation. It's temporary, comes out of nowhere, and can 100% explain what's happening!"
Hariet: "The average UTI isn't bad enough to cause what just occurred in the van!!"
Topper: "A UTI and urgency incontinence are both way more likely than a goddamn enlarged prostate..."
Hariet, Spewart, & Topper: *Start arguing*
Rango: "Woahwoahwoah--How the hell do you guys even know about all this stuff?!?!"

Rango: "................" *Regretting everything he has ever done to Topper* :{
Spewart: "When Auntie gets back, I'll ask her to schedule you a doctor's appointment, okay?"
Rango: "Okay!!"
Hariet: "Don't expect to get an appointment anytime soon, though, since we're right around the holidays... And also, statistically, Fall-Winter time has the most doctor's office visits scheduled for illness and injuries, so it's going to be super busy and-"

A serious post ahead:
I know it's become super trendy to hate on Takeomi, and I'm guilty of joining the trend myself, after seeing the info in CB#4, but!
It got me thinking about his character, and just how damn unfair Wakui was towards him. He introduced Takeomi with all the hype possible (cocky, sarcastic chainsmoker who was Shinichiro's right hand man, the Vice-Commander of the OG Black Dragon, the so-called "God of War", etc), and signaled very clearly that he's going to be super important to the story (the "3 mysterious Akashi siblings", in Senju's own words), only to completely abandon him in the last arc!
And before you ask, no, I am not defending him in any way, and I am even less of his apologist. This is not about the character's likeability and morality, but about the way he is written.
However, I'm not a (professional) writer, and I can't really talk much about character development, plot resolution, etc. 'cause I don't wanna talk out of my ass about something I'm not competent enough to talk about, but I do think it's more than clear that Wakui did him dirty.
He made us squint at Takeomi, like: "Is he a good guy, is he a bad guy, what is his deal, really?" And it was interesting, it made us think. And then we saw a tiny bit of his backstory, he became slightly more relatable, we realized he isn't inherently evil, but... then there came the chapter 241 and we saw what a shitty brother he was to Haru. And yet again, we were left wondering if Takeomi is someone to hate or not.
But that was it, we were left there, hanging on the cliff of his character arc that never happened for real. We never got to see what had really happened between him and Haruchiyo, and most importantly - why it happened. We can all agree that Takeomi is a horrible big brother, it's just a fact. But I also have a strong impression that there was supposed to be an explanation for his attitude towards Haru. Just like how Taiju was abusive to Hakkai and Yuzuha because he wanted them to become "strong", maybe Takeomi had his own similarly warped idea to make Haruchiyo "toughen up" by being unreasonably harsh and strict towards him.
It is one of my greatest disappointments in the manga, that Takeomi as a character was never expanded on. I'm pretty sure he'd have become one of the most relatable and compelling, if not likeable, characters. We see him being flawed, very flawed, and with very real, mundane flaws, that all of us have to some extent. He's suffering from low self esteem, he's trying to make a name/reputation for himself, he's struggling with the responsibility of parenting two kids who are not his kids but siblings, and at such a young age! If you have younger siblings, you most likely know from personal experience how wrong it is to push older children in the family to parent the younger ones, instead of parents parenting all of them!
And yeah, we could argue now that the Mitsuya were in a very similar situation, but Takashi turned out just fine.
First of all, in real life, every person is an individual, and every person's experience is different, and no family circumstances are the same. And since TR depicts family issues, social issues, and (inter)personal issues in an exceptionally realistic manner (main reason why I love it so much!), same can be said for the Akashi and the Mitsuya. Mama Mitsuya is a single mother, but she seems to be as present in her kids' lives as possible, while working her ass off to provide for them. She seems to be a good parent, and therefore the Mitsuya family is not toxic. They all love and support each other.
And to retrace to the abovementioned hypothesis that "Takashi turned out just fine" - did he, really?! He's in a delinquent biker gang, he ran away from home at least once because he couldn't deal with the pressure, he drew (illegall) graffitti, he got a temple tattoo, spent time in a brothel playing poker... His character is very understated and lowkey, so we don't exactly tend to think of him in that light, but when we look at the facts... he's not as much of an angel as he may seem.
Back to the analysis of Takeomi, his parents are not present in his and his siblings' lives. We never got a single hint about what happened with their mother, and all we know about their father is that he left, so the three of them were brought up by their grandma. And therefore, Takeomi had to shoulder the role of the "father". I wish we got to see at least a glimpse of his perspective on that. A glimpse of his own relationship with his parents. With his grandmother. Or why Shinichiro gave him the nickname 'Rainbringer'. Why he was so obsessed with money and "success", why he felt the need to be famous. Why he pushed Haruchiyo to his limits. So damn many unanswered questions, and it's just one single character! Wakui still owes us countless answers, and I will totally not be bitter about it forever!
Just make Tokyo Revengers 2 and answer everything properly, damn it!

I'm pretty new to the sw tumblr fandom, would you mind telling me what the pro/anti jedi "discourse" is about? absolutely understand if you don't have the time for that of course haha
Hi! Oh, I’ve tried like five separate times to write a short summary of What Jedi Discourse Is About, but it’s hard for me to put into a nutshell, because I really want to try to be fair and objective, but also I have experienced a lot of shit in this fandom and I’ve lost a lot of patience for it.  (This is not aimed at you!  This message was totally fine, I’m just still disgusted with some people’s behaviors towards other fans..) As short as I can make it:  While people run the gamut from “the Jedi were monsters and a cult and they hated Anakin and it was their fault he fell and Order 66 was totally deserved” to “well, the Jedi were pretty awful, but the babies didn’t deserve to be murdered, I guess” to “the Jedi did some things wrong and some things right” to “the Jedi were right and their decisions were understandable because there just weren’t any good choices”, and many people are incredibly insufferable about it along the way, whether anti-, neutral-, or pro-, as all subsections of fandom are, and there is a very common tendency for pro-Jedi fans to get bombarded with people trying to argue with them. (There was a time when I literally could not make one single post about the Jedi without someone trying to tell me how wrong I was.  This is why my anon is off and why I block when people are only here to argue.  Things are calmer now, but sometimes people still get a bug up their ass and won’t leave us alone--sometimes for literally A YEAR they’ll keep badgering someone.) The discourse is usually centered around the definition of “attachment”, whether or not the Jedi were a cult, the idea that the Jedi suppress emotions, the Jedi were baby thieves, the Jedi were totally cool with slavery, the Jedi were corrupt and stagnant and bad for being drafted into the war, the Jedi were super mean to Anakin and it’s their fault he fell, the Jedi weren’t blood families so they don’t really count as family, the Jedi kiiiiiiinda deserved their own genocide because they weren’t nice enough, etc. There are plenty of people who are chill about their Jedi criticisms and I usually get along pretty well with them (babes, this post isn’t about you guys, I promise), but there are a LOT of people whose behavior is fucking atrocious towards pro-Jedi fans and that has kind of poisoned the water between us in a lot of ways, so when we’re talking about the shitty behavior in fandom, it’s about the people who just will not leave us alone or who constantly feel the need to come yell at us on our posts. Basically, it’s about a lot of different issues (I feel like if I listed them all, it’d just be starting things up again), usually centered on whether or not the Jedi were emotionally healthy, whether or not they were corrupt for fighting in the war, and whether or not they were responsible for Anakin’s choices.  Pro-Jedi fans feel that Lucas’ commentary is very “the Jedi are right about the Force and they really didn’t have any better options about joining the war and Anakin’s fall is his own fucking fault” and that a lot of criticisms the Jedi get are bad faith, unsupported by the actual source material, or outright racist because of their Buddhist influences and that much of what gets criticized is those Buddhist origins. But it’s a complex, many-tentacled issue, so that’s the best overview I can give, as well as, you know, I am pro-Jedi so my experiences are from the pro-Jedi side, I register these things far stronger than someone who has a different experience!

So I did ask about pickiness in the lolita community and ur response was great.
In my original ask i actually forgot to ask the specific type of pickiness i had in mind though, which is 1000% my bad.
The problem I have is pretty much one I have with every fashion style I'm into, which is fabrics. I have severe sensory processing disorder (spd), and a solid 90% of fabrics super do not agree with me, of which a lot of lolita pieces and guides use the worst ones for me (i can give more details about fabrics i can and cant wear but plz dont ask about why i cant wear em bc spd is pretty nasty for me) Tulle is among the worst, so I use a crinoline instead, which honestly gives better shape than any petticoat ive tried.
I actually dont have many issues with skirts, since the fabric often doesnt touch you much, aside from petticoats, and own a lot of legitimate lolita skirts, mostly from lolita wardrobe.
Blouses on the other hand. The main problem is a lot of fabrics i find wearable are visibly lower quality than lolita usually has, and it often feels like it ruins the whole coord. For the longest time my go to was just a tank top and cardigan bc even finding non lolita blouses is hard bc of spd, and ordering online is worse bc I cant even feel the fabric beforehand. I could sew a blouse myself but again, the fabric would look visibly different than a normal lolita blouse, even if it was the same pattern used, and I'm scared that that would make it not count.
I actually already have a lot of stuff and have been wearing lolita ish stuff for years, i just dont post pics or go to lolita specific events, because my main fear is that my absolute inability to wear a lot of fabrics leads me to be unable to legitimately participate, no matter how much I try with the rest of the coord. Even wearing a crinoline instead of a petticoat I've seen ppl argue about.
Its less that I'm new and scared and more that I feel like due to spd I am barred from ever getting good, ya feel? And it just feels pretty unfair if that is the case. Im not gonna stop wearing what i wear but I feel lonely sometimes.
Thank you so much for what you do though i love the guides you post and I save pretty much all of them 💚
So, for starters, I'm going to speak to everyone reading this first:
Saying, "tennis shoes aren't allowed in lolita but it's okay if you're disabled," is not disability inclusion. It's shitty. You deciding that disabled people can be held to lower standards than abled people is discrimination. Abled people deciding what is accommodation for disabled people is not inclusion. If you want to be disability-inclusive, you need to listen to people asking for the accommodation and you need to meet them on their terms.
So, to anyone who is inclined to answer this with, "Well, if it's a disability, you can wear whatever you want, and anyone who says it's not lolita is wrong because you get a free pass because they can't hate you for being disabled," that's the wrong way to look at the question.
Because OP's question was about if they can find acceptance in the lolita community because they deviate from the norm due to a disability, and the answer of, "just explain your disability to every single person and hope that they're accepting of it," isn't a good one.
.
So, to actually address the asker.
First of all, you personally are allowed to say, "I just will not wear <x fabrics> because it is not possible for me to be healthy and comfortable in them," and then accept that it's the foundation you need to base your lolita fashion off of. It's completely unfair for someone else to decide what your ability level is. However, understanding where your physical, emotional, and mental limits are, and then working to enjoy the things you want to do without crossing those limits? That's just self-care. That's being responsible.
However, as someone who is disabled, I'm kind of going to say how I feel about situations like this and then hope that it's similar to how you feel. We have different illnesses and conditions and so we might not feel the same about this, so I'm just sharing my feelings for a second.
Because, to me, while saying, "I'm making this exception for myself for the sake of my health," is a completely fine option that I know I can use, I still want to wear elaborate coordinates and celebrate this fashion that I love, and I still want to find some kind of acceptance in the community. Part of this is because I don't want to be required to explain to every single person who could judge my outfit that I need to be different because of something I can't control. It's both completely exhausting and totally terrifying. I have to hope with every single person that I talk to about this isn't a nutball who doesn't think disabled is a real thing, and that they aren't the kind of nutball who wants to take advantage of someone's disability for personal gain on entertainment, and that they aren't the kind of nutball to explain to me that <real one I got:> tantric massage can treat hearing loss.
Also, i wear lolita fashion because I love lolita fashion. Even when I'm making outfit changes that step away from the norm, I still want to be wearing lolita fashion. I don't want to go to my lolita events wearing pajama bottoms and a crop top, even if I think my community will still like me as a person, because I go to lolita events to wear lolita fashion. Even when I'm required to make accommodations for my health, I still want to be wearing lolita fashion. I wear it because I want to wear it.
Thank you for letting me project there. I can't know that you feel that way, but since you asked me, there's what I feel.
And that's a long way of explaining why, even though, "you're allowed to recognize what health and safety accommodations you need to make for yourself, and then keeping to those things is healthy," is a complete answer, I'm still going to keep talking.
In a couple of my other posts, I've talked about the "faking it" cards that you get when you're building a first coord. Generally, when your'e new to lolita, people will say, "ballet flats are okay shoes for your first coord," or "it's okay if your first coord doesn't have a petticoat; just hold your skirt out" or "it's okay if your first coord has a pointed collar on your blouse," and leave it at that. What people don't say is that there's a limited number of "it's okay"'s you can get before it's not really lolita anymore. You only get a few with that first coord before you've gone from "EGL" to "waitress who lost her apron".
What people don't talk about as much is that the "faking it" cards don't go away. You don't hear about it as much outside of newbie communities, because a lot of more experienced lolita-wearers do it without really thinking, but there's always an element of "can I get away with this?" in your coordination, no matter what your level is. People talk about balance in coordinates all the time. There's a lot of bizarre guessing and faking of things and experimenting (my ILD coord this year was me trying to find a way to wear a black bow with a navy dress).
From the way it sounds, you've got legitimate lolita skirts, so if you want to use your "faking it" cards on your blouse, there is probably a way to incorporate things you're able to wear into a lolita look. You mentioned cardigans, which are pretty common in lolita (and as long as you're not taking it off, the visual difference between a cardigan and a cutsew and a cardigan and a tank top isn't really all that big), so it sounds like you're familiar with the lolita guidelines and you're already learning on how to make those guidelines safe for you to wear.
I could go on a little bit longer about the why but this has gone on for a while so I'm just going to say that the community's response to someone who has actually studied and decided to try wearing lolita, but who has to make health accommodations is going to be very different from the response that they have to people who have no experience and demand that the community cater to that inexperience.

I'm astounded Sonic Frontiers ain't shit
This ain't right! Sonic and Sonic Team are the pinnacle of promising too much and delivering next to nothing. So how is it that Sonic Frontiers not only feels great as an open-world game, but Sonic's super fast speed is perfect for any kind of open world game?
Tumblr media
Any other Sonic game gives you a course-complete level that results in you either executing every second perfectly or you crash and burn. Many people (i.e. "gamerz") argue this is how Sonic is supposed to be, but Sonic ain't supposed to be shit. Sonic is goo! Sonic is malleable. Furthermore, Sonic should not be synonymous with frustrating levels of perfectionist course completion.
Put this dude in a big ass world and make him bounce off stuff, with a surprisingly tight level of control. Pretty much all 3D Sonic games have had some level of disconnect in the controls. When glitches aren't halting gameplay, you'll often find yourself running at break-neck speed before hitting a blade of grass and slowing down a tip-toe. When you want to land on platforms, you risk jittering on edges or falling through floors. This was the expectation of older Sonic games, so imagine my SHOCK when I fell off a building in Frontiers and quickly used the speed boost, jump, and homing attack in a split second to leap back to the top of the building without even hitting the ground floor.
Tumblr media
Also the voice acting is good. Great even! I've only gotten through small amount of the story, but I'm surprised just how subdued and believable the acting is. One of your first missions is following Amy from side-quest to side-quest, helping ghosts pass on to... heaven?? These interactions could have easily been boring text boxes like Sonic 06, but we get fully directed cutscenes with Amy showing genuine admiration for these ghost babies. Amy hasn't really been a character outside of Sonic Boom, so this almost felt wrong? I want more of it. I wanna see how characterized these guys get.
Tumblr media
That kinda sums up my first impressions honestly. I just wanna play more. Just looking at the game makes it look shitty, I know. The graphics still look hella dated. I wish Sonic's art-style would change. He looks the exact same he did in Sonic Unleashed right down to his flat texturing. I wanna see cell-shaded, high res Sonic! Or 2D animated Sonic is 3D level-- oh wait that's Sonic Robo Blast 2 and it's free and peeerfect also...
Tumblr media
Regardless, you need to look past the visuals and give this game a try. If you like Sonic, you'll love this! It needs more support so we can get more of it. This style needs more life and love!
Tumblr media
Also holy shit, Knuckles is somewhere and I fucking loved that trailer they gave him, so he fucking better be just as cool. I haven't seen him yet, but I wanna hold his hand! >,>

bigass rant below the cut (tw: misogyny, autism)
so... went in crush's stream last night, where he was playing batman: arkham asylum. poison ivy was imprisoned, wearing a halter and panties, boobs all over the place. harley was in a super short nurse's outfit with her magumbos out. i expressed my disgust and he said yeah, there were several unnecessary upskirts of harley already. i said "thank you, male gaze" assuming he'd know i didn't mean him, that he's aware that men suck overall (which he's indicated many times before). he took umbrage at that and played the "not all men" card. wasn't sure if he was taking the piss until he complained about me lumping him in with that lot. my mistake, fine.
then he made a joke about tipping his camgirls well, "as you should" (my reply). he said something the other night about commissioning twitch emotes from me, but wanting someone else to pay for them. (we're both unemployed, i get it, lol. it was enough for me for him to want my art in the first place) when he made the camgirl quip, i said "oh, so this is why you didn't want to pay for my emotes." which he took seriously?? we joke about porn all the time? i had joked about trying to get him to subscribe at a higher tier to my channel, too, so he took all that as me trying to wring money out of him, i guess. (he's not wrong, i'm broke af) i was like, you realize I'm joking, right? i don't give a fuck what you do with your money? he said, "i'm autistic [he is], i didn't know you were making a joke." which drew some serious side-eye from me, since i don't know if he's joking half the time, and that's with aural input. fine, whatever.
cut to end of stream. he played a snippet from batman: the animated series where harley's just trying to have a normal one and ends up carted to the asylum anyway. she laments that she lost a dress that she'd even bought with her own money. batman produces the same dress for her to have, whereupon she smooches the dickens out of him. poison ivy, flower pot in hand, watches on from her own cell and exchanges shrugs with robin. knowing the lesbian canon that's happened between harley & ivy since then, i said, "poison ivy's mind: blown." crush says, "that's not poison ivy." i'm like, wtf are you talking about. he insisted that it wasn't her, that "not every redhead is ivy," that she's "never been locked up in arkham," etc etc.
bitch. i've seen the show. i used to watch it every fucking day. and if you're trying to gaslight me into believing that wasn't poison ivy – even as a joke, even if you turn around and you're like "no, it's not poison ivy, it's dr. pamela isley hrhr" – that's pretty shitty. i know i only have basic cape comic knowledge. but to disregard what knowledge i do have, that I'm convinced of — well, fuck you, then.
i told him not to gaslight me and he even doubled down that it wasn't her; otherwise i'd have let this go. the stream was ending and i didn't want to argue there, so i left the channel and wrote out a thing much like this complaintfest, took a screenshot and sent it to him. he has not responded. i feel like shit and have cried a lot remembering how hard it was growing up a female nerd (a fat female nerd, even) among mercilessly nerdy guys, so intimidated as to repress how nerdy i really was, and how he probably doesn't care, or was looking at something else entirely and didn't mean any of this and it's all a huge misunderstanding. but even if it was, i just wanted him to see where I'm coming from, that he can't have it both ways when it comes to getting/not getting jokes, that he was employing the casual misogyny that he rails against, and i didn't want him to get away with it.

looking at some upcoming food books, i saw one that talked about vegan & vegetarian culinary history. that sounded super cool! i was into it! so i went to look at the description.
i want to say my thoughts carefully (i will fail at this, and sound dismissive of things i want to take seriously) because i think there's a lot of ways in which this is a reasonable and correct thing for someone to say... but also the fastest, simplest reading of it is kinda weird.
Many people become vegans because they are concerned about the role capitalist food systems play in climate change, inequality, white supremacy, and environmental and cultural degradation. But a world where Walmart sells frozen vegan pizzas and non-dairy pints of ice cream are available at gas stations – raises distinct questions about the meanings and goals of plant-based eating. ... [Book] makes a passionate argument for [vegan cuisine] retaining its radical heart.
look. my initial reading is "people become vegan for these reasons. if walmart sells vegan pizza, isn't this betraying the point of veganism? veganism needs to go back to its roots, which is anti-capitalism."
i don't know about everyone, but i would've assumed that most vegans are vegans because they think it's wrong to eat animals.
(like. those are all admirable reasons to take action. but if those are your reasons for action, i don't know that they end with you becoming a vegan. climate change, maybe, though i think that can have a sightly different set interactions with food - maybe more emphasis on efficient food. inequality and white supremacy? i think that has a very different set of actions associated with it! subsidizing the costs of food, more workers' rights, increasing access to food, etc all come to mind first as culinary-related actions)
i came up with some other options for parsing that section, like, "many people are vegan for these reasons [but other reasons exist]", "when you take the axioms that lead to it's wrong to eat animals and follow them to their conclusions, you necessarily become anti-capitalist", "yeah the vegans think it's wrong to eat animals but that doesn't actually affect the arguments made in this book at all, so to make this book palatable to a wider audience, i didn't talk about that".
partner was also a little surprised at the description, and looked up the author to try to figure out further context, and came up with some additional options. one, that the author is writing largely about their own specific experience (intentionally); two, the author is writing largely about their own specific experience (unintentionally).
it's just a really big gap! like. i'm pretty sure most vegans are vegan because they don't want to eat animals. if you leave that out, it worries me that you're missing the point. this is like talking about, i don't know, gay men and how they're perceived in society, and not mentioning that gay men are attracted to men. it's sorta bloodless, i guess.
...
elsewhere (not sure where because i was reading over partner's shoulder on their laptop), i got the impression that the author really does argue that it's important for vegetarians/vegans to keep being Radical in the face of, y'know, walmart selling vegan ice cream, and that it's being co-opted by The Thing That Results In Wal-Mart Selling Vegan Ice Cream.
i... you're missing the point! one. that's a success. walmart selling vegan ice cream is a success. my omnivorous partner eats vegan ice cream all the time, and that's a success.
two. if you're saying that vegetarianism needs to stay radical - needs to stick to its root values - then i'm pretty sure that the author is the one de-radicalizing it by not mentioning what those root values are. like. baffling.
...
the thing is... i really want to read about shitty vegetarian food in the 70s. i wanna know how weird christian sects and hippies influenced early vegetarian food. i wanna know why all the vegetarians love braggs (regrettable man). where do the punk zines come into this. not entirely sure if this book is going to answer the questions i have, though.

Hi baby!! I've been pretty busy because of exams and stuff, so I'm only just getting time to read chapter 10!
From what I remember we left off on a cliffhanger... I'm so scared to read on 😭 Let's just do this-
He would never feel for a Darlarean, so you must be the firthest thing from one — SOBBING SOBBING SOBBING HE ADMITTED IT I'M GONNA CRY
When the man admits to the love first >>>>>>
Oh... it's kind of sad to me how Yoongi is subtly refusing the fact that she's a Darlarean. I understand that he hates them, and for good reason, but it's like... it feels kind of desperate to me. I understand that he's consoling both of them but damn it hurts to read
If he's not too careful he might just- — babe, you're already too far gone
"I suppose this is war" — MOTHERFUCKER YOU WILL NOT HAVE TAEHYUNG (I'm assuming that's him) BEHEADED UNDER MY WATCH GET YOUR ASS OUT THERE AND STOP THIS SOMEHOW
I do not CARE if he's a Darlarean, so are you bitch get a grip I'm not having any deaths in this story
Don't get me wrong, I am SO glad she feels at home in Solaria and loves her country. She found herself and it makes me incredibly happy. But I don't want her to push her Darlarean side away and act as if it never existed, though I understand why she would want to do that. And I don't want yoongi to act as if she's just not Darlarean, and just ignore it. You can't ignore these things :(
Okay back to the lighthearted mood. This mock interrogation is so adorable i love them!! They're so cute 😭
"I also noticed the shitty posture right away" — it's not a proper chapter if she's not giving him shit about his posture 🥲✋
Oh the story of Haneul was actually quite beautiful. It sounds like an actual folk tale you would hear! I love how Solaria has a whole history to it, with culture and traditions and even stories, you really outdid yourself with the world building!!
NAYOOON best girl 😭😭😭 lovely lovely lovely, I love her. Another character I have a crush on now <3
Y/n seems like someone who's very easy to talk to. Literally everyone is sprouting their life stories to her. This sounds weird but I'd love to talk to her, or at least someone like her. She seems very... I don't know how to describe it, easygoing? At the very least a good friend
NAYOON SAID THE SAME THING LITERALLY TWO SECONDS AFTER I TYPED IT OUT LETS GO TELEPATHY
NO OMG THAT MAN IN THE END WAS TAEHYUNG (still assuming that guy is taehyung argue with a wall)
YOU DONT UNDERSTAND I'M GOING TO CRY. THEY WERE PROBABLY SUPER CLOSE AND WHEN SHE DIDNT RECOGNISE HIM HE MUST HSVE BEEN SO HEARTBROKEN CHANA I AM GOING TO START SOBBING
THAT LAST SCENE AHHHH it was so sad and just absolutely brimming with emotion I'm going to FUCKING cry
Ah :((((( ahhhhhh :((((( gwiavdisbdwigdiejdhdhsjssjjsosjsjsjsjsjshisoqsojssjxvsj nsjsosjsjsisihzjsjshsjss
Okay now that they keyboard smash is over, a little announcement !! It is currently my eid holidays, (Ramadan ends either tomorrow or today, we're not quite sure yet). After eid we're gonna have exams, so I'm trying to limit myself and not go on tumblr for the duration of the exams. Which means I won't be able to read any chapter you post from now till the end of May :/
Very sad, but just hope that I do good in my exams 😭 i can't wait to come back in June <33
Also 1) ASSAULTED?? YOU WERE??? when I get my hands on that dude istfg a bitch is getting slapped 2) please tell me that's past tense. The guy you WERE seeing. PAST TENSE. Tell me he's gone, a dude like him doesn't deserve a queen like you 3) (about the yacht party, not the campus lockdown-) GET YOURSELF A SUGAR DADDY. Find the son of some mafia/ceo/gang leader, bump into him, get your life settled miss y/n 🥳 (but seriously have fun!!) (Or i hope you had fun, I'm very late)
Love youuu MUAH <3
i am SO SORRY i responded to this so late 😭 it's the week before finals for me so things have been *quite* hectic! so you and me both babe LOL exams have got us in a chokehold :')
lod is FULL of sadness and heartbreak and hurt 😳 this def won't be the end of it, unfortunately,,, but we do get happy moments here and there 🤩
"I'm not having any deaths in this story" 💀💀💀💀 you are in for a ride, honey <3
"it's not a proper chapter if she's not giving him shit about his posture" I AM SCREECHING LMAOOO it's not like HER posture is impeccable either 🤨 idk why she gives him so much shit for it 💔 my theory is that she just has to find something imperfect in him... otherwise he'd be too good to be true 😟
THANK YOU! I SPENT A BAJILLION YEARS WRITING THIS CHAPTER JUST BECAUSE I WAS WRITING OUT HANEUL'S STORY LMAO 😭 i'm so so glad you thought it helped with the world-building because that was exactly my intent!
everyone has a girl crush on nayoon. she is the moment. an icon (much like doyun 😩)
YES!! oc is the epitome of an 'easy to talk to' person! she is all-ears for everyone! and she has this sort of very ~trustable~ aura that allows people to ~lower~ their guards around her! (#infj things)
LMAO YOU AND NAYOON ARE ONE 😳😳
good good luck with your exams and stay happy and healthy during your month off of tumblr!!!
yes. i still can't believe it happened
i'll tell him after finals that we're DONE
the yacht party was a success 😩 i just became elected as the director of my club so i'm really excited for next semester too :))
thank you for another amazing commentary!! i literally appreciate you SO MUCH <3 i can't wait to hear from you again! i'm telling you every time i get your ask, i read it AT LEAST five times before i respond (and it's a serotonin boost every time 😩)

Well, this is certainly something that happened.  
In response to a post I made stating the various reasons I don’t like the Twilight Princess manga (which was in and of itself a response to some replies I got on this other post), I got a barrage of replies from a user (who will go unnamed, they’ve already been blocked) in defense of the thing - which, ordinarily, wouldn’t be a big deal!  People are allowed to have different opinions and I never once stated anyone who liked it should feel bad!  I started writing up a reply to them in the middle of this barrage, but their replies just kept coming and got subsequently worse, yet it was all...so bizarre to the point that it would feel weird to not address that it happened.  I’m putting all of this under a read more, because wow this is a wall of text, but also this is the kind of nonsense I want people to avoid having to read if it can be helped.  At any rate, this is what they had to say:
I don’t know, this really honestly feels like reaching. It feels like criticism for the sake of criticism without actual narrative flaws being shown, but your anger seems to stem from “This interpretation is different from what I thought even though I admit all official art shows the charachter this way” and “Link HAD to be raised in ordon because of one quote from the enclosed instruction book”. Twilight Princess was literally made to be “the edgy zelda” in reponse to fan overreaction to wind waker. This is undeniable. All official art depicts link this way. He turned into a freaking wolf in the middle of the twilight craze! but no, he *can’t* be like that because of random expressions he makes when holding pets or items? First of all, even in the manga he isn’t an edgeboy all the time.
Secondly, it feels like you're merely glossing over all that was added in terms of charachterization! In the original game, I felt nothing for Ilia. She showed up, yelled at link for maybe getting epona slightly hurt, and then got kidnapped. Maybe a bit of tsundere stuff, but seriously, Midna is literally the best tsundere ever. You can't out midna-minda in her own damn game. XD In the manga, Ilia and Link actually have a warm and very close relationship, you can see them through all the slice of life in the first volume. I really grew to like her and truly felt sorry for her when bad things happened to her. She actually gets far, FAR more respect as a person and charachter in the manga than merely a trophy for link to get back. But no, you're far too focused on subtle expressions and insinuations because that is literally all anyone had to go on for the longest time. In reality, Link, as has been said many times, is an avatar as much as he is a charachter. You can't gloss over his official art depicitons any more than I can random expressions he makes when finding a heart piece.
Not to mention, you call the blog midzelink yet you make zero mention of the super obvious wlw-as-fuck zelda flashback in volume 5? It's a sad thing that Shad being straight is something I have seen people complain about, yet Zelda and Midna's relationship getting such a huge focus passes without a peep. It's a disturbing trend I see in my fellow Fujoshi. And on the subject of Shad, his relationship with Ilia is far more likely something included to give her a happy ending, rather than just seeing link off into the sunset to try to find midna and live forever alone in ordon. On that note as well, Link not being from Ordon fits PERFECTLY with the ending, Link being the only hylian, link being from there, all of this is SCREAMING that that is the place he never truly belonged, the manga simply takes it one step further and in this version says he was never from there any way, cementing that. It gives the concept that Link was using Ordon as a place to avoid being who he was extra weight. And Honestly, it makes him less of a jerk in the end for leaving ordon, as he never truly belonged.  
And It's actually a narrative flaw in the original for Lanaryu to make mention of misusing the power of the master sword and then having nothing come of that warning later. If you're going to set chekov's gun down on the table, you better use it by the end of the play. It's simply capitalzing on something that the story actually set up, and playing into the tone of the story nintendo marketed it. But really, most of my annoyance dosen't come from the fact that you don't like the manga. People can dislike what they want. It's that all your grievances seem to come from stuff at the very beginning, and you liked it for so long, when they were there just as much as they are now. This kinda reeks of someone else slowly influencing you over time, rather than your own thoughts.
Phew.  
Okay.  
First of all, what the f**k, dude.  Who leaves this kind of essay in the replies of someone else’s post?
Secondly,
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Note: a “fujoshi” is a woman who likes yaoi, usually used in a derogatory manner, but it seems to be self-proclaimed in this case.  That is to say, this person proudly announced they fetishized MLM relationships, and then proceeded to tell me my opinion was Bad and Wrong because I didn’t praise Himekawa for a scene that ultimately wasn’t WLW at all, even though I and a lot of other people liked to interpret it that way.  Do not give Himekawa credit for gay rep, ever.)
Again, I was going to reply to this person civilly...up until I read the Midzel/Fujoshi reply, which decimated me on impact. There’s a heckuva lot I could say in response to, well...everything else, but in the interest of making this post shorter, I’ll break it down into a bulleted list:
Link being raised in Ordon is not based on “one quote from the enclosed instruction book” - Ilia specifically states when she gets her memory back, “When we were young, you and I... You were always there... You were always beside me... Link.” (I already mentioned this in my original post, which they evidently neglected to read properly.) And this is to speak nothing of the familial bond between Link and all of the Ordonians that is fairly evident within the context of the game, i.e. Rusl trusting him to deliver a very important gift to the Royal Family, or all the children looking up to him as much as they do.
Saying “all official art depicts Link this way” in defense of his characterization in the manga being edgy (when his in-game persona is far-flung from that) is pretty shaky when you realize that the same can be said for Skyward Sword, which arguably has the most emotive and happy Link of any game. In all of SS Link’s official art, he is angry, mid-yell, or stone-faced.  That’s how character art works.  That’s how marketing works.  They wanted to market TP especially as a darker game, yes, in response to the critiques of The Wind Waker, but this is literally a man who smiles softly every time he picks up a dog or a cat. You can pet the goats.  You get excited about fishing.  If TP Link should be “edgy” because of his official art and no other reason, then SS Link should be, too.
it’s your own damn fault you felt nothing for Ilia, Ilia owns, suck it
MIDNA IS NOT A TSUNDERE, HOLY SHIT.  SHE’S NOT.  I WILL NEVER CONCEDE THIS. She doesn’t mistreat Link because she likes him, she mistreats him because he is nothing to her when they first meet, and this is a stance that slowly changes as they get to know each other!  She stops treating him like garbage when she stops seeing him as such, and her behavior throughout the game post-Zelda is a mixed bag of shame over how she treated him previously and a longing to make up for it.  How anyone can construe that as tsundere I will never, ever understand.
the Midzel comment is so wack I really can’t believe I had to read that shit with my own two eyes
no, Link likely isn’t from Ordon (again, already addressed in my original post, but again, I guess this person can’t read), but he was certainly raised there, see: the first bullet point
Lanayru never once mentions ANYTHING about misusing the power of the Master Sword, so that entire point is completely invalid.  I literally have no idea what they’re talking about here. Lanayru does have the famous line, “Those who do not know the danger of wielding power will, before long, be ruled by it,” but that’s in reference to the Fused Shadows, not the Master Sword.  Which, you know, you would know if you actually knew the source material as well as you claim to, dude.
Lastly, yes, I did like the manga when I first read it, but as I already stated, that was because I blasted through all four (available at the time) volumes in one sitting, and it was immediately after my hyperfixation for this game resurfaced (about a week or so before I made this blog!).  I was Starved For Content, and the manga was Content.  Now I’m not Starved, and two more volumes have released since, and guess what!  People’s opinions can change!  And my opinion is that the manga isn’t for me, and this entire, extremely accusatory essay of yours in the replies of a post I made stating my own opinion was entirely uncalled for and rather intrusive.  So, yeah.  Blocked.
This has certainly been a trip.
