Sarah Sisko’s whole deal is so horrifying and messed up and DS9 just kinda. Glosses over it

#Imagine you are just a random Australian woman on Earth. Living your life minding your business #and then you get possessed by an alien force who have a Destiny they need to enact #And so controls you to go to New Orleans and hook up with a guy you’ve never met and you marry him and live with him for three years #And give birth to a son #And evidently that was what the alien wanted because once you have had a son the alien possession vacates your body #And you are in control of yourself again for the first time in three years #Married to a guy you didn’t seek out with a son you didn’t have a choice in #And the man is sweet and kind and in live with you! And thought you lived him! But you can’t bear it #So you leave him and leave the kid and hightail it back to Australia because what else can you do?? #And eventually commit suicide because you can’t handle this. Your life was upended in an impossible horrifying way for three years #You disappeared from your life with no warning for three years and then showed up again to people who think you just left #It’s the Star Trek universe—‘I was mind controlled by an alien force’ is well known #But that’s not supposed to happen to you. You aren’t a starfleet adventurer you live on Earth. Why You? #I feel like. Sarah your life was so horrifying/tragic and it wasn’t even about you #And even DS9 just brings this up practically in passing and then never dwells on it ever #perpetual perpetual ladies night #Star Trek #Deep Space 9 #ST:DS9

Ellie’s eyes were starting to feel heavy as she poked her head around the doorframe to the living in search for Joel, a blanket wrapped around her shoulders. She spotted him sitting on the couch, book in hand, using the reading glasses Ellie liked to endlessly tease him about. The book he was reading was tilted slightly to receive the light from a nearby lamp, the glow the only source of light in the room, all of the lights in the house turned off to match the darkness of outside.

He glanced up and smiled softly when he noticed her, and she took it as an invitation to stumble over to him and flop down onto the couch next to him, tucking herself closely against his side. He chuckled softly and wrapped an arm around her, causing her to snuggle closer against him.

“Tired?” He asked, glancing down at her. She blinked sleepily back at him and yawned.

“Nope.” She glanced at the book he was holding. “What’re you reading?”

“Nothin’ that would interest you,” he replied, marking his page before closing the book and placing it on a nearby desk. His thumb on the hand he had around her had begun to rub small circles onto her shoulder, and her eyelids began to droop even more. He took his other hand and gently ran it through her hair. “It’s gettin’ late, baby girl. You wanna go to bed?”

“No,” Ellie mumbled, shoving her face into his side and squeezing her eyes shut. “Wanna stay here.”

“You have to go to bed soon, or you’ll be tired tomorrow,” he pointed out, his voice a comforting rumble in her ears.

“Fuck tomorrow,” Ellie yawned. “‘M never tired.”

“If you say so.” He adjusted himself so that Ellie was lying on top of him, face buried into the crook of his neck, one hand between her shoulder blades as he rubbed gentle circles on her back and the other gently playing with her hair. Ear pressed against his chest, she could hear the soft thumping of his heart, over and over again, a comforting thump, thump, thump, and soon she felt the pull of sleep draw her in.

Joel shifted slightly and Ellie clung onto his shirt, making a small noise of protest. He bent down to press a small kiss to the crown of her head and murmured, “I’m not goin’ anywhere, honey.”

Ellie relaxed against him again, and she thought she heard him whisper, “goodnight, baby,” before all of the other sounds around her began to slowly fade, nothing but the soft thump, thump, thump of his heartbeat echoing in her ears before sleep finally took her.

#the universal child experience of falling asleep on top of your father listening to the sounds of his organs #I was literally shocked at how loud my dads intestines were when I was younger #we need more cuddly joel and ellie #THERE ISN’T ENOUGH JOEL AND ELLIE CUDDLES OUT THERE GUYS !! #the last of us hbo #the last of us #tlou #ellie williams #joel miller #ellie and joel #joel and ellie #fluffy #short story #haven’t posted any lil stories on tumblr yet but this was too short for ao3 in my personal opinion so here we are #anyway watch me post this and then disappear forever bc I have an insane amount of anxiety abt literally everything #yay!! #alternatewriting

hm hm hm i feel like this will be really interesting to read with the knowledge of korra and how that effected her instead.... because korra (from my limited knowledge so i could be talking out my ass here) knew she was the avatar at an early age and DID get that community. she had katara and her parents, she had her mentors, she was isolated from the real world during so and perfected the elements other than air (which i kinda recall her struggling with and how its the opposite element of earth so im excited to see if those kinda play out :3) and she was more eager to be the avatar and the excitement and significance it brought (which was a bit clouded by her being sheltered but also would have been expected more before the war impacted things)

i also remember matty saying kyoshi struggled with earth bending (which im super excited to get to and see/see her journey and how it will differ) but!!! i just think its really fun how theyre kinda off the bat setting up this expectation and new grounding for readers who have a past grasp of the avatar universe. even as someone who isnt super familiar with the lore, i know enough to recognize that oh! thats something new!! so just kudos to the writer(s?) for just setting this up to be something very different and in a natural way :3

#again. talking out my ass here. if im an idiot no one say anything okay? okay <3 #but i think its fun to already see some parallels or ways kyoshi and korra are different or similar #and how korra got the set-up stage that was considered ideal (i think?) for these two characters #like !!! the avatar is supposed to know theyre the avatar at a young age! #and aang learning when he was 12 instead?? i think? #or being told hey man you gotta fucking get ready/do your teen duties instead of preeteen ones cause theres a war.... #but no sorry my head is scattered i cant keep a line of thought but the point was i know a lot of people bash korra because shes too #‘abrasive’ or comfortable with being the avatar when?? for previous experiences that eagerness was something more expected (i think) #like its so difficult to make a solid grounding argument when im not lore caught up but korras excitement to be the avatar and that she #knows its significant and important is something that would been encouraged before the war because of that hope and belief #that the avatar will keep that balance or save the world when others cant. aang disappearing and the genocide and war #obviously effected how people will see the avatar in universe and how her teachers are more hesitant and restrictive #none of this makes sense im just thinkin to myself while half distracted lol but ! go cringegirl bosses go !!!! #RoK (ransom style)

Anyway prohibitedwish dark medieval mystery drama au. The story is interjected every so often by prismo and scarab arguing over what should happen next

#random thoughts #adventure time #over time scarab learns to accept when things dont go his way (especially when prismo has a very good idea) #and prismo gets help working through his depression through the beauty of creating with another person (euphamism for gay sex lol) #hey prismo why do you want to collab with scarab hmm? to create life with another man? pretty gay it does seem #anyway in the beginning they argue because scarab wants stuff to go his way #and prismo keeps bringing up bad ideas and wanting to put jake-esque characters in everything #prismo is. not very creative #anyway their universe ends up following a sheriff and a self-declared wizard in the late-12th century (so around robin hood times) #as the sheriff hunts down a group of bandits #(prismo ends up really liking the bandits and thinking the sheriff sucks balls for hunting them down and scarab's like you just dont get it) #the self-declared wizard is very much a conman hawking snake oil (i do NOT sound like that is. very commonly interjected by prismo) #there is no magic. prismo keeps trying to put magic in there. scarab keeps shutting him down #scarab ends up trying to kill off the wizard for a dramatic moment and prismo gets upset about it #'it's a tragedy! it's supposed to be sad!' 'but WHAT IS THE POINT??? it's just tragedy for the sake of tragedy!' #'if your plan this whole time was to make me upset then congrats!!! you made everyone's friend prismo upset. im gonna do something else now' #prismo disappears and scarab feels. bad. it doesn't feel good. #eventually prismo comes back in to apologize for getting too into the story and leaving in a huff and shit and surprise!!! #the wizard is still alive! scarab LISTENED and he CONCEDED and CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT BABEY!!! #now the ending of the story they were trying to tell is more bittersweet instead of a full-on 'everyone's dead or sad' thing #btw the sheriff and the wizard end up kissing and prismo and scarab are both VERY awkward about it #scarab still likes dark edgy stuff but he recognizes the universe he created with prismo is a SHARED project and he's been kind of a pill

Writing Tip: Challenge your characters

Don't give your characters easy outs. If you can make a choice that would make it harder for your characters, or a choice that would make it easier, go for the hard one.

#not a universal tip #not every story needs to be 100% challenges all the time #but when you do pose a challenge to your characters make it count #make the characters make a decision or solve a problem #don't solve it for them or make their problem disappear

I'd go on record to state that Three Houses is one of the greatest tragedies written in the modern age. It's like no matter what route you play through, no matter what you do, somebody is missing the key piece of information that would immediately stop all the fighting, all the senseless violence and they die cursing the professor they once beloved, never knowing that it was them missing the important clue.

#JT Games #feth #Fire Emblem: Three Houses #every time I play this game it just kills me #cuz like if everyone could have just sat down for 5min and swapped some notes #it would all be perfect #but instead there's no fairy tale ending #at the very best one lord dies and the other disappears #and while you saved everyone you could half of your students have to live with the trauma of fighting and killing their own countrymen #who for the nobles are people they grew up with #and even in the alternate universe from what I understand there's still no way for everyone to have their happy ending #it's like Claude Edelgard and Dimitri were cursed to never be happy #and Byleth was cursed to always be the one to seal their fate #just really emotional about Three Houses rn #don't mind me

sorry but i can’t stop thinking about Teen Gaster…… his name is Wingdings T. Skeleton and he is not an eldritch 666 mysteryman yet he is just a boy and he has never had friends before

#there is actually quite a bit to this AU or w/e but i’ll probably never get around to doing anything with it #basically. wingdings is the middle skelebro and originated in the DR universe with them #he is in hometown bc social troubles at school + their grandpa semi has fallen down & he cant handle being at home #gerson & semi are longtime friends so hometown seemed like a reasonable fit #both dess disappearing and adult gaster shattering are canon to the AU but #from the perspective seen here. those things haven’t happened yet #anyway it’s mostly a vehicle for silly slice of life stuff lmao #also yeah wingdings collects mosses and makes terraria with them #i dont think he actually Needed the loupe to ID rock’s cap moss he just feels smart & cool whenever he gets a chance to pull it out #wingdings’s idea of what is cool is very skewed and his older brother’s reassurances don’t really help #yeah bro nothing says cool like buttoning your shirt all the way up and carrying a loupe. youre almost as cool as paps. almost #deltarune #wd gaster #dess holiday #asriel #deltarune au #$ wingdings the boy

some more thoughts about Andromeda's conservatorship:

their conservator has legal ownership of them and everything they represent. it started off as them becoming their guardian when they were itty bitty, but after a bad episode that was unfortunately public, they were coaxed into the conservatorship they're currently in. it wasn't a huge change honestly though because they were already used to being so restricted in everything they do. they're EXTRAORDINARILY sheltered, and not just in a "you haven't had to experience bad things" way.

I think their conservator/guardian is a normal dude when they're not working with Andro. they have a husband and some fur babies, nieces and nephews they love very much, and are all-around seen as a charitable, good person by the media, although as reclusive as Andromeda themself is. they've compartmentalized their mistreatment of Andromeda. Andromeda is a brand, a thing, they aren't a person to them anymore- maybe they were in the beginning, but certainly not now. they make their job "easier" by thinking of Andromeda less as someone with needs and more of a checklist minimum of things they have to accomplish in order to maintain the brand by keeping the icon compliant.

#i think they TRIED to be more of a parent. but they weren't ready for it #so after raising andromeda for a little while they shuffled all of their child-rearing responsibilities on to hired hands #who could take care of the dangerously powerful baby reaper #and then turn around and allow the conservator to use andromeda like a prop #they're both a child musician and child actor and they kinda had this disney moment where they grew up and tried to resist the ways they'd- #-been groomed to behave. but they could only do so much at the time #which lead to their first 'rebirthing' of their pop identity they have going on when they meet felix. undertones of sad #and they finally get to shed all of those layers AFTER their guardian mysteriously disappears #oc: andromeda #oc ramblings #oc #my oc #whoops! accidentally attached my oc to your oc universe (silly intent)

Hello! So, I was wondering if you knew what happened to the part of the book Sigma was written into existence with? (This is for a fic im writing and google had 0 answers so I ask you, only other bsd watcher i feel i can ask) If you don't know I'm just gonna write it disappeared after he was created or something.

hii!! i believe the pg that the doa has contained not only the terrorist plot but the creation of the sky casino and sigma as a person.. or at least that's what dazai claims when he was questioning sigma's existence w fyodor. so when the agency obtains the pg they also basically have sigma's lifeline w them. idk where the actual BOOK is (apparently sigma knows when he used his ability on chief tanaeda) but the doa only has a single pg not the book itself

#there's a theory that the novel odasaku was reading was actually the book itself since natsume was revealed to be the author of the novel #and the book was created by a powerful ability user.. some ppl speculate his ability is far more than what it seems #and could even control time and the universe itself #anyway to answer your question yes the pg is still around. it does not disappear once sigma was created #hope that helped!! #lotus’s asks

“ OPTIMIST. ” THE MAN SAYS DRYLY: DOESN’T BOTHER WITH HIS USUAL ACCENT CHANGE WHEN IT’S JUST HER. She knows the truth about him, she’s the only one able. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons he holds her in such high esteem: she’s the only one who knows who he is, behind this ridiculous facade of helpful, cheerful engineer James Attik. Stretching with a groan until his back pops, scars faintly visible in the iridescent lighting of the Pizzaplex’s underground tunnel complex. She’s right: the night promises tedium. Tries to remain peppy, though finds himself lacking ——— “ It’s a child, my dear. ” Says the word child as though some said his true name now: disdainful, disbelieving. “ How much trouble can he give the two of us working together, hmm? ” He gives her a grin; one that he hopes promises a swift and easy capture of the Gregory boy. Cane clicking on the ground as he strides ahead, left leg slightly bowed with the pace.

You know what? I am so fucking insecure that Captain Kirk, Fred Rogers, and Christ Himself could magically appear before me, hold my hands, earnestly tell me something like "You have value" or "You are worthy of being alive" or "You deserve to be loved" and (through endless sobbing and wailing, of course) I would fucking argue with them about it until they all killed themselves out of frustration.

the storytelling in this album i will die

#growing pain is about falling headfirst into reality #then chasing that feeling is about running on the ground after you fall trying to find like something #then back for more is the feeling of wanting to go back to before because reality is too hard #then dreamer is about finding your dream and getting your name back. and it becomes your motivation to continue on #then deep down is about how these people were the reason you came this far. and how your struggles or your horns were really your crown #and then happily ever after is about realizing life isnt a fairytale and our endings are all unknown and isnt that better that we make #our own future? that we dont know what happens next? #and then skipping stones. OMG SKIPPING STONES THE METAPHOR UGH. its about how the ripples on the water when you skip stones #those wounds on the water. one day they will disappear and the water will calm again. so head towards that ocean. and stop dwelling on the #thoughts hanging on your fingertips. stop thinking about what youll be losing. LOSS IS A UNIVERSAL HUMAN EXPERIENCE. instead go forward #LIKE UGH WTH WHO GAVE THEM THE RIGHT TO KAJSDHFLKJDH #and then blue spring and do it like that #LIKE UGH #THIS ALBUM #I CANNOT #THE ALBUM PREVIEW I NEED TO STAB MYSELF
