#cuz it's actually pointless

[maxzinn]

Omg the whole aventurine fanfic drama is still on going..but fr I'm glad some people are defending the author that wrote that harmless fic! It's kinda crazy that they would read a fanfic where reader literally just saves him and tries giving him a more comfortable life and immediately say "that's horrible! That's racism! How dare you romanticise slavery!?" Like- c'mon it wasn't even an NSFW fic! And are they just triggered because the reader "buys" him? Like would they cause all of this drama if reader like helped rescued him in other ways?

Please i can't tell you how scared I was when the author suddenly started getting backlash but then I saw your post defending them and i let out the biggest sigh of relief 😭

I just got past my awkwardness when reading aventurine fics but now seeing this mess again I'm feeling even more awkward 😭 and please the "white knight syndrome" thing is just stupid how tf do you read a harmless fic that was written with pure intentions and turn it into this???

Anyways off topic but I love your vibe! I would love talking to you about silly stuff other than this whole stupid fanfic drama!

(i don't play hsr (i don't have enough time and money okay 😭) but I've been there since the game first started and got wayyy too attached to Jing Yuan and now I'm too invested in the damn game 😔)

You said it very well anon! I just wish they stop this drama now tbh cuz it's literally pointless.

I'm so confused as to why people think that fic was to be condemned just because reader "bought him". That fic didn't even romanticize slavery or anything! The fic didn't even sexualize his slavery as well! They weren't even in a relationship nor did the reader in that fic even tried to get together with him.

Besides, I'll say it again, it was his IN-GAME lore and that author only made their own script/version where aventurine had never gone through that trauma of fighting for his life and someone was able to save him to give him a better childhood.

Even though reader didn't "buy" him and rescued him instead, nothing would have ever changed imo. I think people will still nitpick on the fact that it's a fic about slave aventurine and will still claim that it's 'white-knighting" and "fantasizing to be his savior" and all that bullcrap. (i'm really getting tired of these people turning every good intentions into something malicious)

And besides, imo, even if reader were to rescue him (in the fic) then aventurine will still be in danger and both of their lives would be at risk. Buying him is the only safest option where his previous owner won't come to look for him, and I doubt the reader in that fic even knows how to fight or murder anyone lol. I think it's the most safest, efficient, and fastest solution to save slave aventurine from the abuse. I don't like buying slaves cuz it's not right, but if that's the only safest option on guaranteeing their safety and mine as well, then I'd do it even if it's against my own morals/beliefs because I know that it was out of goodwill and not out of maliciousness.

But aside from that, I would've get it if the hate in the fic (aside from death threats) was because it was borderline romanticizing slavery and is making it nsfw where the reader was taking advantage of their roles as master and slave, but it's not that at all!

Reader was literally just trying to help him get out of his hell, yet people are accusing it as a "white-knight behavior" like pls,,, they're acting as if we're having some sinister and evil motives for reading that fic.

I get you anon, it's very awkward for me as well to read aventurine fics now cuz these people ruined everything for me. I can't believe a simple harmless fic was turned into this just because it mentioned his slave past.

(I hope you'd have the chance to play the game in the future! HSR really didn't disappoint. Even thought it's a turn-based rpg, it's still a good game and is not too far off from the other popular games! I would love for you to experience the game yourself someday and thank you for sharing your thoughts with me <33)

#literally just end this drama rn #cuz it's actually pointless #y'all do be attacking a harmless fic when there are countless others that were sexualizing his slavery which is even worse #can't people stop jumping on the bandwagon? #I hope that poor author recovers from this #they weren't in the wrong #their intentions was never bad to begin with

You just don't think antis are a problem because they're not in your fandoms. Once they start making posts with thousands of likes accusing you of being a pedophile and threatening to find out where you live and work so they can report your pedophilic tendencies because you ship teenagers (shounen characters), you'll start caring very quickly. Not in favour of that happening to you? Cool, you're a proshipper.

The fuck

#just woke up to get a glass of water #checked my phone and saw this #took me a whole minute to figure out what was going on lmao #it’s way too early to argue and also I don’t care enough at five in the morning #I just want to ask since when the fuck does teen wolf not have antis #holy shit the amount of antis in this fandom even years after the dumb show is over #but anyway I think you’re missing the point #there shouldn’t be proshippers or antis cuz it’s so pointless #pretty sure that’s what op meant #and nobody should care so much about it that they’re attacking ppl over it like you said #cuz don’t like don’t read is like basic decency and common sense #and most ppl have a lot more real life problems to deal with #than caring about what someone else thinks about character A going down on character B or whatever the problem is #but literally nobody is saying antis aren't a problem #we're actually saying antis are ridiculous for making such a big deal about sth that really doesn't matter in the greater scheme of things #that’s my 5am contribution I’m going back to bed

[essektheylyss]

Is there any Essek scene in particular you’re hoping is included in the show?

Oh man oh god oh fuck. This list could go on SO long.

To be fair, the thing with Essek is that there are a lot of very small and fun but not narratively load-bearing scenes, and then a few major scenes that have a decent amount of narrative weight to them. For instance, the first study scene (the second is important but could be combined into it if that the pace required it), the Scourger incident, the dinner, and most of episode 97 have a lot of narrative impact, either for Caleb's arc or for the plot as a whole. I've already suggested I need to see the ninth floor tower conversation animated like a fish needs water to breathe, and I'd love both the times Essek physically pulls Caleb out of danger, of course.

There's also a lot of wiggle room in how you pace the Nein and break up their arcs (which I think was more rigid translating campaign 1 to LoVM—even when arcs are shifted around, the sequences of events are kept somewhat orderly) which means that speculation is pretty hard, particularly when it comes to Essek, who meets the Nein so far into the campaign. Basically, any of these things might not be as narratively necessary by then, depending on what they choose to cut or focus in on. I could speculate on that, and I'm sure I will extensively, but at a certain point I might as well just write a series worth of scripts as a fun side project.

That being said, I do really hope the Scourger scene remains, because it is so cinematically interesting, and I do consider it a major turning point between the wizards, regardless of either of them realizing it at the time or not.

And I also really want to watch him have a panic attack over whiskey cocoa. It is in no way load-bearing, but nonetheless, I would like to see it, and I think I deserve it.

#there IS actually something to be said about the narrative weight of essek having a panic attack while guzzling spiked hot cocoa but #I've talked about that elsewhere #this is for vibes lmao #thank you for the ask! it also reminded me I did get an ask about tone the other day and have not had a chance to answer yet #thank you to everyone who has taken my bait and allowed me to chatter about my boi this series and adaptation literally my fave topics #mighty nein animated #essek thelyss #oh boy I am tempting myself with the concept of just sitting down and writing a series worth of scripts for lulz. #I have done it before and I should Not do it again but boyyyyy do I kinda wanna #tbt the time my professor told me my thesis project was pointless cuz I couldn't use it as a writing sample. I'm still just. #excuse me ma'am. LOVE HER. great screenwriter. but oh my god what if I just want to PRACTICE. hello. #I did in fact write 600 pages of script out of spite cuz of that. so yanno. again. I could fully do this just for kicks.

i feel like if i want to get back my motivation to write my dn fanfics, i should talk about them more (or i mean, start talking about them) so i can get feedback and input that feeds my creativity but i also feel very self-conscious when i do, because like why should i even do that, it's embarrassing lmao

#i still physically cringe thinking that i pointed out some fics that i wrote to some people on here #and i know - trust me i do - that i should overcome this but even though i would love to do so #i just can't #the only thing that is bearable is throwing bread crumbs here and there lmao #the funny thing is that i do not even think my fics are atrocious #i have one or two that i consider pointless for the others and i only write them only for me #but other than that i don't think they are horrible - they are average you know #like i am actually proud of a L x reader fic i wrote cuz there are some parts that leave me like 'ah this is good how the fuck did i do it' #lmao anyway i still hope that i'll wake up one day with the motivation cuz i am pretty tired of leaving things unfinished

[benetnvsch]

just had a dreadful fucking vision where bones makes an anime original ending for bsd since it'll be caught up with the manga next episode but there's still more season left after that and in that ending chuuya doesn't actually shoot Dazai or whatever and the two go off to beat Fyodor with the power of love/friendship/whatever and just oGHGHGKH ISTG they better not fuck things up like that or I will literally eat dirt-

#/jk but also I am holding a gun at u bones just so u know OWO #That would be so Pointless to EVERYONE'S stories PLEASE - #PLEASE be unreleased content ANYthing but a bones original ending #lets go back to Lovecraft actually I wonna see what he's been up to- #or a one episode light novel adaption LMAO sometimes the final episodes in seasons is longer so what if they just make like some movie - #length ln adaption huh? #just not an original ending pls not with how bones treats them u know it'll suck #in the bones original ending everyone gets a happy ending but Kunikida and Akutagawa who for some reason abruptly explode and the rest #of the Cast Do Not Care or mention them even cuz we all know how much bones hates them- #it's so bungover-

| Don't talk about my wife like that-

Yeah so the kick is coming back which I REALLY did NOT want happening rn, especially when (even though it'll probably be all done and sorted by then) I'm trying to edit and touch up all OCs refs and other art related to my OCs I've already posted to here-

And then this bitch comes running back like an ex who doesn't realize it's over... But I guess I'm getting my fill of Kohga with a few and also another doodle/drawing of them here so I should be ok getting back with re-doing said other OCs who need re-designs and stuff... But then even when I HAVE re-drawn all of them; Lore, extras, plots and so on will then need to be handled and... Hhhhggg.... I hate it.

Also stiff neck been attacking me for a couple days now and it won't go away,,,,, I hate it

..... Another art dump coming soon I guess...

[oh-meow-swirls]

was looking through old posts and i'm surprised to see that i seemingly didn't have any commentary on anything in 3 in chapter 7, 8 or 9, the posts related to 3's story go from "my first reaction when i saw yopple-bot was 'i love you. but also you are definitely the boss for this chapter-'" to "i have been in hell all day. hell being bada-bing tower." funny to me cuz those chapters are like, the best ones sdfkljsdfjfsdkjlfsdjkl-

#puppy rambles #yo-kai watch #yw3 #i love dukesville. yo-kai watch wild west. though also everyone in bbq talks like they're in the wild west- #i don't blame myself for not having any commentary on hazeltine mansion tbh. it sucks ass. i mean it's kind of fun but like #god is it annoying. i think using the mechanic of switching between nate and hailey for puzzles is a cool idea but. bad execution #very bad execution. it is so annoying #especially the section where you're in the basement and have to use the drill a bunch #... why are there prison cells in the basement anyways??????? i just realized how fucking weird that is- #i'm mostly just annoyed by the dining room puzzle tbh. i KNOW the fucking answers but verygoodsir is an ASSHOLE for some reason #and won't let me choose the FUCKING CORRECT DOORS #3's so fucking amazing tbh. i really wanna replay it soon. don't wanna have to delete a save file though #wish 3 had three save files like 1 and 2. i get why though i mean it's the biggest 3ds game klsfdjfskjfsdjksdf- #i wanna like. actually use my originyan for once. i might just end up using nyases ii instead tho fsdkljjdsfjskd- #i love every chapter in 3 after nate and hailey meet tbh. the bestie moments are so good #though also i don't think it was an amazing idea tbh. it means there's six main characters after that point #sometimes one character will go several cutscenes without talking at all. it's usually buck #he doesn't have any dialogue during any of the key quests in new yo-kai city. which is pretty amusing admittedly #i think the writers just forgot about him or something fslkdjdfslkjfsdljkdf- #i think my favorite thing related to that is like. during the stuff in bada-bing tower komasan and komajiro are there too #but they don't have any dialogue. which makes it seem kind of pointless #i get why they're there plot-wise but like. at that point you should either have them leave before you go to bada-bing tower #(esp since they don't end up in the ufo with everyone else. idr if there's a reason for that there probably isn't-) #(i think i slightly blocked out everything in bada-bing tower cuz it is so grueling) #or just. give them dialogue??? #i love 3 and all but it definitely has some problems- #which is why i'm so excited to rewrite it <3 for both of those reasons. i can fix things. and also it's the best game #just. full-stop. not just the best yo-kai watch. i just think it's the best game ever #that title changes based on my current biggest hyperfixation though sfldfsjdkslfdjkfdj- #i think i'd say my overall top 5 is like. yo-kai watch 3. deltarune. ummmm. fantasy life is up there

[siverfanweedo]

cant stop thinking of this tiktok slide show that was saying older art is better then modern day art (namely color fields) but that only being tagged ancient greek art when it was paintings that are POST renaissance like i am not super knowledgeable but the older art looked like rococo art which isnt at all greek also most greek art we have is fucking jugs and sculptures and most arent even greek but roman copies but what ever i guess Rothko is bad cuz its just colors on a big canvas

#this is a VERY pointless ramble i #its actually mostly cuz i donot LIKE rococo art i hate looking at it #it was my least favorite thing to study in art #sorry

[biromanticbookbabe]

Wow. Sometimes I'm very lucky and my bipolar doesn't always affect me much. But no such luck lately. I'm worried that I might have to retake my modern lit course because I was so late with many of my assignments. I've been mentally messed up more or less with a mixed mood episode since last September. I'm currently on the line of passing and not passing the class (granted there are a few ungraded assignments, including my final so it's still possible that I'm overreacting). I'm usually a good student too so it's a point of pride for me. I went from the honor roll to this all due to me fighting with an illness... :/ (It is my fault for not managing things better so I'm not looking for pity here- just talking).

I cannot imagine how horrible this disorder is for people who didn't have the option of medication (I am medicated, believe it or not). I think about that about that a lot since I study history and look into many writer's and artist's biographies in my spare time. I feel very bad for them since they basically had to live with this disorder without the fixes I have simply because I was born late enough for treatments to exist.

Virginia Woolf and Sylvia Plath both haunt me. Other people too. Yes, Lord Byron was extremely shocking but consider- we don't actually know what he would have been like if he could have been treated. He wouldn't have died at 36, I'm almost certain of that. I am highly aware of what this disorder has done to people before me. It doesn't make it better. But I keep looking back any way, to see that many of them did incredible things, in spite of it all.

I just keep thinking that if they could do so much without any treatment- that I should be able to function with treatment??? I know: don't compare yourself to other people but I'm desperate to know that I can be successful even with this illness. That it's not going to force me to leave school (the one thing I have been historically good at) and waste my life toiling away for nothing.

So if it seems as if I have been hitting my head against something lately, you aren't wrong. The fall is not generally my friend, pretty as the leaves are. I have not been having a good time of it but we must go on any way because what other option is there? None, I tell you.

#leaves pretty brain shitty has been my fall for the last few years since 2018 at least... #consistently fall has been bad for my cycle though I like that time of year normally #granted a lot of things kept happening every fall since 2018 too #bipolar disorder #actually bipolar #I probably am a closet perfectionist in some cases #I am exhausted thanks for asking! #and yes for a few semesters I was an honor roll student in my grad school- not any more though LOL #seriously I'm going into debt for this degree and uh that promise to waive our debt never came to light so I'm very fucked rn #I have to finish this degree so I can work off my debt and build a good reputation for myself #I'm honestly afraid my illness might take away my ability to have a career at all; I'm desperate for a living wage! #it's not good #but this could be anxiety talking tbh #for real I'm amazed that like Virginia Woolf and others were able to do as much as they did in their lives #because without my medication I'd probably be useless??? Mania is not fun 10/10 would NOT suggest #I actually pity Lord Byron after reading his biography; he just seems like if mania was a person and um it explains his behavior completely #do you ever look back at other peoples' lives and see pieces of yourself in them and then feel really bad for them? cuz I do all the time #mychatter #I'm stubborn in that I refuse to quit school since I am aware that my family needs to know I can do this #please don't take this personally this is my problem and a pointless rant probably

I love my job but i rally will never understand the phenomenon of when some coworkers/people that work in different departments alongside u like. Decide they dont like u lol.

Why would you create a hostile work environment on purpose like does that not just make your own life harder lmao

yknow ultimately the way i feel about the mob votes is just that there's prolly better ways to drive engagement with the community at this point. like as much vitriol as it breeds between players n towards mojang, you'd think they'd try something different this year, but either they or someone in charge of them doesn't really care, n it kinda sucks to see that.

#june speaks #minecraft #there's all sorts of stuff i could argue against mob votes but at this point it's just the apparent lack of fucks given that i don't like #they're doin a better job of makin the vote feel more fair this time by keepin the mobs on equal footing i'll give em that #but i'd argue that's actually INCREASED hostility between players n towards the devs #cuz now instead of ''obvious good choice that seems to be mojang's prefered winner'' and ''two mid or pointless choices'' #we have options that provide long-requested features that we're worried we'll never get if they don't win #since they basically never intend to let these mobs see the light of day when they lose #ik they don't just throw em away but they end up on a list of super low-priority ideas #its been seven years since we've had the first mob vote with mobs that are different from eachother so like #at this point i'm not confident we'll ever see most of if any of these mobs in the vanilla main game #so i think fears that we may never get included features is valid n it doesn't surprise me to see people at eachother's throats over it #at any rate i'm curious to see what the final mob is but i'm still prolly gonna vote for the crab #i'm still a lil salty about how they stunted the mangrove's atmosphere last second for no reason #and i just want my irl favourite biome to feel more alive #plus i just think crabs are cute
