Tumblr media
hi >.<
Tumblr media
this is so fucking sweet i remembered how happy i was when i first got my car. i cried everyday for a week straight because i was so happy. very glad yall got to watch me get my first car. i spend over an hour in her every day commuting now. LMFAOOO (i named her lindsay btw) ((after tdi lsinday)). im so sorry im late but thank you so much this meant sm !!! <3
Tumblr media
you asked me this in august im evil oh my god. anyway i aagree. but i am always inclined to forever think he's a midwest emo guy. twin sized mattress forever
Tumblr media
SHE NEEDS AND DESERVES SO MANY.
Tumblr media
im immediately inclined to say clocky or toby the second i see time and fire mentions. so ticciwork. my clocky is often a bit messy so she'd be pissed and angry and upset over the sort of war she's found herself in, especially as she sees toby just falling deeper into it. 'my god, was i oblivious?' when she finally realizes toby will always, always put Slenderman before her. frustrating. 'hell stays hungry for a world so weak' natalie is hungry for a good world, but she thinks everyone is too weak for goodness, meanwhile toby is hungry for power so he can make everyone else seem weak. etc. 'they only want you to bleed' they being slendy, operator, zalgo, etc etc etc... power, being a pawn, fighting, using humans as toys in a battlefield, etc etc.. yeah
Tumblr media
RELEASE ME JOEY
Tumblr media
i genuinely think nina is a really good influence on so many of the creeps. like theyre all assholes, traumatized, refuse to believe in the good in the world, etc etc. but nina is traumatized and still kickin. she comes in like ^_^ hello chat. and i think that, while its still important to feel the shitty feelings, it's really grounding to see someone whos just so .. able to be happy. idk. someone who SEEKS joy, rather than expects it to fall into their lap, and blames the world when it doesnt
Tumblr media
this si perfect idk why i forgot about bats for him. gotta get back into this idea
Tumblr media
AHHH OK I WILL DO MORE EVENTUALLY i just wanna say thank yewww i think theyre such a good sibling dynamic. like little brothers and big sisters and both being little assholes to eachother but would die for the other. idk. ugh. important to me.
Tumblr media
actually this sounds really sweet..... thats funny cuz i was JUST talking to a friend about who i would have EJ go endgame with if i had to, but i couldnt settle on anyone. but liu seems like a good fit for ej. i think they'd be super sweet

Tumblr media
incredibly. happy. to do this to u.
Tumblr media
nope! im not too interested in the 2021 nina just cuz i feel like i've seen that character concept many times (not just in jane), BUT if i had to do my own intepretation of her, 2021 nina would be INCREDIBLY immature in like. not a childish way, but an entitled, angry-fueled adult who cannot comprehend anyone else's thoughts/feelings. and thus, would despise OG nina (although within reason, OG nina idolizes the person who killed her family) . but even if there wasnt a good reason to dislike OG nina, she'd be mean. and OG nina would be mad and bitch. and theyd theyd fight. HAHA
Tumblr media
I-IF...???????? ANON?

iiiii have my weirdly specific hcs for Kokichi's hometown and the kind of aesthetic i associate with said town, but i don't think i've shared all that much of what i think of Shuichi and his uncle's home, imma talk about that
unlike Kokichi's town this one isn't as well thought out cause it's not as fun to think about- but basically my idea is he lives in an upper-middle class gated community (yk, the kind that would have an HOA) that's filled with middle class people who think they're upper class. real stuffy snooty type place just outside the city HPA is located in
he kinda lowkey hates it there, but he makes do with it. his punk ass wandering around with his hood up on walks does scare the Karens a bit, but after a while he just got use to them and sometimes taps into his inner Kokichi and purposefully screws with them a little bit. none of them know he's the nephew of the nice detective that moved in recently, which adds to the almost cathartic amusement spooking them gives Shuichi
he use to live in a less stuffy neighborhood before going to HPA- the one that his old highschool was in- but with Shuichi getting his scouting letter, his aunt already working in the city, and his uncle wanting to move his agency to the city for better business. they decided to move closer to the city because it was smarter than all of them commuting that far every day. they just didn't know they'd be ending up in snobsville
i think i actually made a post a while back that was like- me talking about specifically his fucking with the Karens by existing, but idk where the fuck that post went off to

one of my friends texted today and asked if i had plans for my birthday and if not, would i want to go to a movie and maybe get dinner beforehand and like... i about burst into tears on the spot.
she's probably my closest friend in our program but we're not like super super close, and i've just... never had someone actively pursue making plans for my birthday? like i've done stuff on my birthday, like one year we went to an event that happened to fall on that day, or a few times people have asked what my plans were and upon finding out i had no plans, offered to hang out or whatever. the past few years have actually been a huge relief, to be able to stay in and just watch movies all day and have the pandemic as an excuse to not think about making plans.
it's not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things, but i allow myself to whine a tiny bit, especially on tumblr where my friends can't hear: having valentine's day as a birthday sucks when you're single. especially if most/all of your friends are in relationships. because there's no way to even ask them to do something that day without implicitly asking them to choose between me and their partner. i don't want to put them in that spot, and either way, i don't really want to know what they'd pick. and i can't even mention it around them, because i don't want them to feel bad and it's essentially the same thing as asking at that point.
so anyway, i'm actually looking forward to tomorrow a little bit now. and all but one of my appointments tomorrow cancelled, and the one is online so i don't have to do the two hour commute and suddenly have a bunch of extra free time to just hang out and do whatever most of the day, which is nice.
(also when i say she asked if i wanted to go to a movie she actually specifically asked if i wanted to go to the rerelease of Titanic, which i had actually been considering going to by myself. and as much as i hate this attitude for me, i just felt like going to see fucking Titanic of all things, alone, on valentine's day, on my 30th birthday was a little too stereotypically pathetic and i'd end up not having a good time because of that. so it was extra nice that not only did she want to do something, she knew the kind of thing i would like to do? idk i'm just feeling very soft about it.)

Considering how popular they can be in the fandom i wonder what Headmistress Rosehearts would do with a child Yuu
Since they got isekaid there at 8-12 yrs old and didn't have any guardians the school staff just kept them with Grim and looked after child Yuu collectively while Yuu and Grim still went through the story chapters just with some changes (because they might be cunning but i don't think Azul would leave a child homeless nor Jamil would force them to do the Scarabia training)
I feel like she'd either try to make them and educate them like Riddle or send them to the orphanage so they'd probably never see the cast again
I mean if she sends them to an orphanage, there isn't really much of a plot. Maybe because Yuu is a ward of the school with various caretakers, the staff collectively has to agree to give them up, or else she legally can't. Idk how that would work, but for the sake of the au let's pretend that's how their guardian ship works. Idk maybe that's what was decided, so if anything happened, Yuu would always have a legal guardian available to take them to avoid them going into the system. So Mrs. Rosehearts can't just get rid of them.
Also I don't think Yuu would live in Ramshackle. I can't logic out a reason for a child to live by themselves in a run down house. So they have their own room in the staff quarters. But they like to play in Ramshackle, despite everyone telling them not to. They sort of claim it as their club house and the ghosts are very fond of them. Anyone who sneaks into Ramshackle will find children's toys and books scattered everywhere and the kitchen pantry with snacks and candy. Everyone knows that's where Yuu runs off to play.
Mrs. Rosehearts decides, if she has to look after this child's needs, she will. But her way. She sees how Yuu is being raised and finds fault in everything. Yuu goes to school in town, using the mirror to teleport down, because seven knows the commute down the mountain will be hell. Mrs. Rosehearts decides the schools available on the isle of sages aren't good enough. The place is small, there are only a couple of schools and none of them are prestigious private schools. So she pulls Yuu out and will have them be homeschooled with the curriculum she had for Riddle. Tweaked only to exclude magic lessons. Next she took every toy of Yuus that she did not approve of. "These dolls clothes are inappropriate. The show these action figures are from promotes violence. These video games are not good for your development. These posters are a distraction as well." Yuu keeps sobbing. Half their stuff is gone and they can't even see their friends. Headmistress was not done yet though. Yuu was not to interact with certain students she deemed a "bad influence". So no Trey. No Ace and Deuce. No Octo trio. Yuu was to study with Riddle so he could set a good example. Vil was one of the ones who were allowed. He was after all an excellent student. (And her bias towards his father.)
But the thing that broke Yuu was when they finally managed to sneak off to Ramshackle. Only to find it boarded up. The doors were locked and all the windows nailed shut. "This place is dangerous." Said a voice behind them. It was Headmistress Rosehearts. "It's old and dirty, and you're likely to be hurt. You are not to play here ever again. Understand?"
Yuu looked down at their shoes and sniffled. Int he smallest voice they replied. "Yes, ma'am."

what are your thoughts on the paparazzi photos in the summer and the fact that the daily mail deleted the article ?
(long post but I can put a keep reading tab if it's disruptive to anyone that's not a problem)
Ah yea the infamous daily mail saga that seems so long a go now but also like it was yesterday lmao.
In complete honesty my immediate thought was they had to be staged/organised/tipped off in some way and I still think there was some level of at least tip off on someone's end.
I was working along the logic of it was so stark in the sense that it had been 5yrs and they'd not been I guess papped to this level then ✨suddenly✨ 30+ pics of them on a holiday…. to me it just looked strange especially since he’s largely notoriously private…like typically he disappears for months rarely spotted in his own home country (even recently we've only just seen an arguably grainy photo of him)…then suddenly they’ve been found oh wow look how cute and and candid it is???? it to me was just felt sus from the start.
Furthering that point of him being routinely private-- he's shown that he can literally can choose when and where he want's to be seen- as said this man disappears for months at a time and very likely lives and walks/commutes around the UK and US probably routinely?? and you hardly get fan photos/sightings if any, so my thought was -- what about a sudden influx of 30+ pap photos seems natural/spur of the moment? like I mean sure it happens but it's certainly a little odd?
To use an example to illustrate the point/my thought process a bit more-- I think it was Cillian Murphy??? who said something about if you want to be photographed you will be (as in implying it’s a choice). He's a good example because he's famously compartmentalised in his work and private life. So arguably if someone like Cillian Murphy who remains the centre of A LOT of media attention right now, and arguably more publicly notable can remain largely private and only be seen at public events - how do these two people who hardly get photographed suddenly get a 'candid’ 30+ photo spread of a private holiday?
Also just generally and along the lines of the above, I don't mean this as a dig/swipe I know he's very successful and I don't take that away, I know it was shown to be a key paparazzi spot (like I think harry styles was photographed there and I also recognise he's been papped with ex girlfriends) but at the same time they aren't the kind of people to just be "randomly papped" it's not like they're a high power celebrity couple? like there's not as much of a "social fuss" around him/his personal life as some others within the same industry like for example idk Matty Healy? who's a lot more social media potent.
As to the deleting of the article-- honestly that just made the whole thing weirder. It (to me anyway) fuelled the prospect of it being planned and organised. Like in the sense that, (speculating of course) the spread has been organised for whatever reason-- they realised the story tanked and people were making fun of it (like literally the comments on that article just from random daily mail readers were tearing them to shreds) and they asked for it to be pulled. The daily mail and many other tabloids don't just "pull" articles-- these people/organisations literally go to court just to fight to keep published stories up.. tabloids have fought much higher class (is that the right word??) celebrities even the royal family lol over keeping certain stories up-- they aren't just going to remove it out of good grace... it's likely there was some sort of agreement in place in my opinion.
I've very likely missed some thought points but I'm conscious this is a very long post and I don't want to bombard anyone with too much text. Happy to discuss/clarify if needed and hear additional thoughts!

Do you have any favorite modern AUs for YoriTan atm? What about RenYori???? 😳
I kind of like the idea of tanjiro falling for Yoriichi’s doll, which happens to be haunted… 👉👈
Sorry replying late but THANK YOU FOR THE ASK KITTY OMGOMG this is the best ask......😳😳😳
First off YESSSSSSS tan falling for possessed yorii doll is like. one of the first things I ever thought of for them. One braincell 🤝 It's such a spicy thought and has potential to be sooooo so angsty.... Tan trying to steal away time with the doll, going out there alone at weird times... panicking when the doll gets broken as if someone truly got direly wounded, but no one else understands...... perfect😩❤️
the rest under read more!!
As far as modern AU goes, I haven't actually thought about that as much as other settings! 🤔🤔 What I got is kinda vague and not too plot heavy but it's fluffy so I'll talk about it - I like the thought of modern yorii being a nationally known swordmaster, and he is very humble about it and teaches kendo alongside michikatsu. michi of course always seething because he WANTS to be a champion but he's constantly in the shadow of his more beloved and known brother, and he'll eventually become violent about it... (some kind of yakuza au there??)
BUT ANYWAY I also have an adjacent modern headcanon that giyu and urokodaki also have a dojo, tho they focus more on teaching younger children, and tanjiro is giyu's adoptive brother so he helps out there a lot. One day they do some event where they bring in the master Yorii so tan gets to meet him..... suddenly he has a very invested interest in taking lessons and giyu's like :u LMAO
So Tan takes lessons from Yorii, he has a lot of fun, and Yorii does the thing where he's like touching tan to correct his stance...... maybe lingering just a little too long....
Tan gets a crush pretty quickly during the time yorii is there, and when yorii leaves again Tan starts commuting out to see him... yknow, for more lessons! of course! But they do genuinely get to know each other. Yorii finds it hard to express himself (I actually HC him as selectively mute depending on AU) but Tan seems to understand him perfectly regardless (bless that nose of his). Tan is a great comfort to yorii, who is struggling a lot with the drama with his brother.
just very warm and fluffy, lots of comfort and happy boys kiss ❤️
----------
NOW Interesting u ask about Renyori/yoriren on their own!! 😳😳😳 (assuming you do mean Kyojuro, and not rengoku ancestor! if you did mean rengoku ancestor do let me know LOL i have thoughts for those 2 as well i love them)
I haven't actually thought about Yorii and Kyo together without Tan's involvement, so this is interesting brain food..... hm...... just now I thought that modern AU with modern demon slayers could be really fun for them..... I think Kyojuro might have a bit of internalized like.... idk insecurity? i don't know if that's the right word.... about sun breathing, just because of how his father would always talk about them as kyo grew up. So he kind of feels like he has to prove something to Yorii, and it doesn't help that yorii is a distant and melancholic person who is hard to read. Meanwhile he works as a teacher during the daytime and what do you know the school gets a new kendo instructor.... kyo is pissed LMAOOOO
They'll eventually get assigned together as a hashira pair and the sexual tension gets crazy. Yorii is so stoic. Kyo wants to break that stoic expression of his. 😳😳😳
And ideally past that they'd get to know each other, of course it'd happen naturally when they're on missions together. Kyo starts to see that Yorii as a sun breather isn't some like elitist arrogant person who looks down upon all the other demon slayers LOL and he has to confront his own biases that he was raised with, as a person who also has a bloodline/pedigree within the demon slayers.

i have a couple different ideas for gang's bay story arcs but idk if i'll ever end up doing anything with em. either way here's what im thinking:
screwball dates amelia arc. i think they'd be cute together but also juicebox would get upset because his best friend and his sister are now hanging out together more than either of them are with him so he just feels kind of betrayed and lonely. definitely some good juicy drama potential in there
shipwreck and sharky housemates arc. something happens to shipwreck's house that needs to be fixed but can't for a while so he . i just got a steam notification that boat's playing a game. anyway plot device shipwreck has to move in with sharky bc a. he's his closest friend in the gang b. they dont live too far from each other c. sharky's house is the only one with a guest room d. they can now commute to work together if they want. LOT of room for humor and also some softer stories, maybe a few (very humorous) arguments here and there, plus some good character development potential (and chill domestic stuff!). also i get to show off my dream 1-story waterside house a lot more :D

Thought dump about cars and their community, from a voyeuristic perspective of someone with no driver's license
[TW: term with racist (anti Asian) roots]
My dad owned a Bricklin SV-1 for most of my life and let me tell you, reading stupid car community comments has given me a new appreciation for the things. "Safety doesn't mean uncool" was the idea. It was unsuccessful, Bricklins aren't iconic and are generally thought of as shitty, but I appreciate that someone was trying to prove selfish assholes wrong in the 70s.
The car community is the only hobby community where I understand why it's overwhelming conservative to some extent tbh; the liberals are impeding on their fun. It's not an excuse (I hate conservatives more than most liberals and leftists do, I guarantee you) but it's about the only place where conservatism within it isn't either random or psyop-driven. It's driven by a worry that advancing technology, EVs, safety regulations, self driving, will take their hobby away from them. Not unfounded, IMO; "daily driver" cars have way less of what car enthusiasts like about cars than they used to with automation doing so much for you, and safety regulations at the very least have made cars look less cool and unique (though, aerodynamics plays an equal part in that.)
That said...no, your hobby is not more important than pedestrian safety or the fucking planet we all have to live on, you coal-rolling ass-bastard. Pop up headlights are cool, but you can't prioritize "cool" over "human lives" (with enthusiasts clamoring for em, I'm surprised they have yet to make them in a way that doesn't run afoul of regulations; they're not directly banned.) And while enthusiasts are probably a drop in the bucket in terms of emissions, the ICE should not stay around because you don't like the feel of EVs. And yes, we should have more available public transit and walkable cities (I actually think this might help car enthusiasts; motorcycles do not need to cater to non-enthusiasts because nobody who isn't an enthusiast owns a motorcycle. If very few commutes [I don't think they can be completely eliminated because some jobs need them] required a personal vehicle, it would require the car companies to make cool cars because the enthusiasts would be all the buyers) because even though their lifetime EVs have less emissions than an ICE car, the manufacturing process still has sky high emissions.
I cannot sign onto self driving cars though. I used to, but the sketchy cabal of private corporations known as "big tech" is running them and they'd likely have the effect of reducing use of public transit which is bad for the environment. They're safer I guess. I'm for their use in public transportation (trolley buses are better for the environment but lack flexibility often needed for bus routes) but I'd rather not see everyone own a personal one.
My limited understanding of EVs is that they're moddable despite what ICE diehards think, but it's a different skillset, and RC car people and computer engineers are more equipped for it than ICE auto engineers. There's also less to mod because EVs are less complex machines, and a lot of the mods that can be done are software which doesn't appeal to people who like working with their hands. The introduction of DRM and mandatory firmware updates before you can drive is fucked, but you can blame Elon Musk for introducing the Apple model to cars, not the EV concept itself. If Tesla were just a somehow hypersuccessful gas car company that did this the other companies would probably follow suit too. Trust me, tech guys hate Apple's influence because of shit like this. I hope right to repair is bipartisan, it fits the "freedom" ideals of the right and the pro environment ideals of the left. In general I think EVs try too hard to be futuristic, give me one that's just like an '00s shitbox such as the Saturn SL, but electric please. Okay maybe not that far back idk just don't make the entire center console including AC and radio controls a bigass tablet, give me tactile because I can use tactile without looking at it, it's safer. Also apparently EVs can have manual transmission, no idea how that works
And also, I feel car people forget that most people don't love cars. They're appliances to most people. You'd love a car where everything is manual and you do it all yourself, but most people just want to get to work comfortably and alive. Don't expect car companies to cater to you beyond one or two models, unless they're a performance car only manufacturer like Ferrari or Caterham.
I think the fact that Zoomers and Millennials don't have money has shrunken the hobby at that. Cars are an expensive hobby, and most young people don't have money for a car that they want, only the bland econo-SUV or econo-truck that they need, and that's why cool cars like the Lancer Evolution get discontinued. Forza Horizon should probably be the kind of boon to the car community's numbers that Gran Turismo, Need For Speed, and Fast and Furious were in the 90s and 00s. But nobody can afford a cool car.
I recently realized how much I like Miatas. I feel they represent me well. Small, cute, and feminine, but far from edgeless and not family-friendly, and very pro-mod. If I could have any car it'd be a Miata. The EV Miata if it's a full EV and they somehow nail it (keep it lightweight) it'd represent me better because I'm quiet. I will never have a Miata. Because I can't justify a vehicle, and if I could it'd probably have to be an SUV econobox even though I dislike how many SUVs and trucks I see on the road (they represent the American impulse to make everything BIG because BIG is POWERFUL and MANLY. The opposite of a Miata.) But SUVs do be more practical than a small convertible two seat coupe that will cost me more in insurance. My brother who has never particularly liked cars said he wanted a truck so people can call on him. I guess he really is less selfish than me, who wants a two door convertible because I think it fits my image. And yeah, he is. I can try and fail to be selfless to someone I truly like which is almost nobody, but I'm ultimately selfish, at the most selfless I just want a friend's smile. I care about my ingroup I guess. But then again my brother wants a car because of freedom where I believe the selfless option is not having an automobile, particularly since public transit is good here, because automobile manufacture, gas, and electricity all cause emissions to some degree
I really dislike the community's hate of "ricers" (cars with only aesthetic mods, especially if they're either extremely flamboyant or imitate race cars without any actual performance parts) because bruh, performance mods are every bit as impractical as rice. Racing is not important, you both do what you do for fun unless you're the well under 1% who races professionally. I know some just dislike race inspired rice which is more understandable because pedigree or something, but ultimately what does it matter? I know some people try to pretend they're racers with riced cars and that's cringe but like...just don't posture bro. I've heard the hatred of ricers is mostly an American thing but idk.
idk I think I could get into cars but it's prohibitively expensive I don't like the community and i low-key think it's an immoral hobby
yeah ive been playing forza horizon

sorry, this is a super-weird question, but i read From Soldier to Slayer, so I figured you'd know
When do boys wear eyeliner?
Like for girls, it's a kind of fancy, going out makeup thing, but idk about boys.
Is it a suit-and-tie level thing, or a button-down-and-jeans level thing, or am i overthinking this.
sorry
Hi Anony!
I have to say, I'm not sure I am a good person to ask about this, as I'm not a man and I don't wear that much make up even as a woman, especially not since the pandemic hit and I stopped having to go into the office. (No make up! No shoes! No commuting! WFH life has been very kind to me.)
I put Bucky in eyeliner in From Soldier to Slayer mostly because I think it's hot, which maybe makes me shallow but eh, it was a self-indulgent fanfic, why hold back?
I would say that for the subset of guys who are likely to wear eyeliner, which would be a lot smaller than it is for women, they probably all have their own motivations and times when they go for it. Everyone is different, after all, and even as a woman I know my reasons and times when I wear make up is different from those of my friends.
Given that women wearing make up is a mainstream thing and very tied in to what is considered 'smart' or 'professional' for them (which is a whole other rant about stupid gender bullshit), whereas guys wearing eyeliner is generally more counter-culture and definitely not something you're likely to see in an office environment in the same way, I don't think you can compare when men and women might choose to wear it. I would assume the most likely time to see guys in eyeliner would be on a night out to certain kinds of clubs/bars. Or at a Green Day concert, obviously. (Is that me showing my age? I'm sure there are bands that The Youth listen to that also wear heavy eyeliner.)
If you're asking for a fic-writing reason, then you'd need to consider why a character wears eyeliner and what they're looking to gain from doing so, and then when they'd choose to do so based on what they'd be doing and who they'd be around. They might wear it to hang out with friends but not when going to see their parents, for example, unless they were at a 'fuck you, parents!' stage of their life and wanted to shock or discomfort them, or force a part of their identity that they didn't think their parents were okay with in their faces. They might have just got into the habit of it and put it on every morning without thinking about it, as part of their normal look.
Or they might wear it when they're going to see someone they fancy because they think it looks hot, or because they're bored of wearing the same kinda thing all the time and want to experiment with other options, which were a couple of Bucky's reasons for wearing it in my fic. He also didn't want to disappoint Jonathan Van Ness by not wearing it because it would have kinda felt like kicking a puppy.
Anyway, I hope this helps but also I am not an expert on men-in-make-up so this is mostly assumption rather than qualified fact.

I was tagged by @impractical-matters to answer 10 questions and come up with 10 questions of my own. Thank you:33
