Ryuji having the worst bi crisis of his fucking life bc his mom just had to fucking ask “oh, whats this young ladys name?” when he showed her a picture of Akira petting Morgana. Like okay yeah Akira is like objectively pretty, hes like the Classic Delicate Pretty Boy just like Yusuke which is like whatever; straight dudes have eyes, and they know what women like to see. But now hes like. Seeing things he likes in girls IN Akira now and he cant make it Stop like its genuinely keeping him up at night 😭
Pretty boy used to be A Face that would come up in his mind when he thought of the term. There was no specifics in mind, just like. Pretty Boy. Pretty boy! You say that and theres like a Face Template that shows up in ur minds eye and hed just attribute that to any dude who was like Vaguely Pretty. But now its Akira 😭 and he finds himself cataloging things that Akira does that he KNOWS he finds cute when girls do it. The hairtuck behind the ears. The headtilt when he mishears a question. The Actually Pretty Doe Eyes. The breathy, nearly inaudible chuckle he does in place of a Real laugh (thats made better by the fact that its so hard to get him to laugh in the first place). He likes cute snacks. He blushes easily. Ryuji is sitting here like ‘theres no fucking way man. Like theres just no way. That shit makes NO sense (a lie)’ lying in bed in the middle of the night looking like this vvvv w his phone in his hands (looking at pictures of akira)
It drives him insane bc like he did Not see any of these things as like inherently girly or whatever. Like thats just akira thats just his bro! And he does OTHER weird shit that cancels all that shit out. Hes like a messy engineer/tinkerer, he rolls out of bed and whatever situation his hair is is everyones problem. He wears that AWFUL gym uniform and doesnt tweak it AT ALL?? He likes baseball?? hes got a whole binder of trading cards that he will show off if u show any moment of weakness. Like hes just Some Dude but also manages to be Some Girl at the same time and Ryuji is like thats not fair. Life sucked ass but at least it made sense before Akira stumbled into it 😭

why I don’t understand those shows with ‘experts’
Sherlock: Your jumper shows sign of significant wear and tear meaning it must be your favourite and yet you didn’t wear it to the victim’s house last night. Why? You knew it was going to get messy from the start. It was cold premeditated murder.
Me: My aunt knit it for me and I don’t have the heart to tell her it’s the ugliest fucking jumper I’ve ever seen. I didn’t wear it last night because I was trying to impress a hot girl.
Sherlock: ...
AND
Miss Marple: If you walked straight home from work this afternoon, why do you have fresh mud on your shoes?
Me: Because-
Miss Marple: Because you didn’t go straight home. You took a shortcut through the graveyard to the victim’s house where you murdered him in cold blood before-
Me: Actually, I saw a puddle in someone’s garden and I couldn’t resist jumping in it.
Miss Marple: ...
ALSO SEE...
Mentalist: The number you’re thinking of is 32,684
Me: No, it’s 10,000.
Mentalist: You’re lying. I’ve been feeding you clues through your subconscious the entire time so you’d pick the number 32,684.
Me: Oh, yeah, I got distracted by something you said about bees earlier so instead of paying attention I’ve been constructing an elaborate daydream in my head about what kind of cliques would exist at an all-bee high school for the majority of your performance. Also I murdered the audience member next to me.
Mentalist: ...

in the nigerian job, as a rebuttal to eliot teasing him that he has no game when flirting with parker, hardison replies, ‘age of the geek baby, age of the geek’
the last time the phrase was repeated was in the long goodbye job, in the van where parker, hardison, and eliot lay bleeding out from their wounds
‘did eliot make it’ hardison asks shakily, unable to move his gaze from the blurry ceiling
eliot, with his less injured arm, fumbles to grasp hardison’s hand. ‘age of the geek, brother’
they both share wet, bloody smiles
parker gazes at them as she is propped up by the side of the van. she knows. they are going to die. but at least they are together, in the end
and they fade out of consciousness together as one, holding hands as they go into the dark

The best writing tip I’ve ever heard:
Write whatever you want to. Don’t worry about writing stuff that’s trendy or popular. Do you remember the cinnamon challenge, or dabbing? Most people don’t care about them anymore. Trends change, and they can fade out of the public eye so quickly that by the time you have your writing project finished the trend has died. One of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever heard is “Write what you want to read, but can’t find.” I think Alex Hirsch said that in an interview, or something.

The Tales of Arcadia Ending Fixit Fic I’ll Never Write
I know it's a bit unorthodox, but this has been sitting in my drafts folder for almost two years. I'm never going to write it, but want to share it anyway. So here's a full length fic outline (in my messy outline style) I wrote after Rise of the Titans that functions as a fix-it for the ending. It's canon compliant, just following the natural consequences of what happened and carving a path forward that ends up with a good ending for all.
If someone (or multiple someones) want to write something based on it, feel free to use it as a reference for a fic. Or just read it as is! If you feel up to writing one. Just remember to give credit and set it as inspired by this if you do. Thanks! Enjoy!
AO3 Link
(it’s archive locked to avoid AI scraping so you do need to be logged in on Ao3 to view it)
Summary: In the new timeline, Jim's constant meddling and the weight of knowing the future results in things going poorly for Arcadia. He reaches out to the only person who might believe him and who might have the power to help set things right: Douxie. The two team up to restore the timeline (with just a couple small changes in the form of lives to be saved)
(edit: fixed the ao3 link!)
