Dragon AU Headcanon

It's Phoenix Clan tradition to name children after a male ancestor in hopes they'll become great dragon hunters. This is why Ozai still names Azula after his father despite trying to separate himself from both Azulon and the Phoenix Clan. Maybe it was out of irony or Ozai was still more ingrained than he thought. He never truly figured that out.

Ozai wished he had enough courage to break the tradition and name Azula after his late mother, but what's done is done.

This is also why Ozai never calls Azula by her full name. It's always Dear or Blueberry or even Lala but never Azula.

I just watched sonic x for the first time

and JESUS CHRIST

I KNEW ok I KNEW Cosmo was gonna die, i had seen a video where it spoiled it, I knew it was gonna be sad but FUCKING HELL MY HEART HURTS

They really made TAILS have to be the one to SHOOT the Sonic Driver I was HOPING it was gonna be able to be Eggman, he had readied everything else but NO the writers were like lets make TAILS be the one to shoot her nad just make the whole scene even MORE emotional and heartwrenching lets make our audience CRY

AND THEY SUCCEEDED

AND THEN AND THEN AND THEN

When SOnic comes back and gives Tails and tells him the seed was the only thing left and Tails is SOBBING and telling him he had Faith Sonic would save her and he's crying and hitting Sonic and Sonic is just standing there cause he couldn't ans he couldn't do anything

FUck my HEART

Moving on to the NEXT scene that got me emotional: Chris leaving

Now I know he is very much not liked, and he could be annoying in the first two seasons but he was a kid, I honestly was expecting to not like him at all because of tik tok(i havent seen sonic x content yet here, been avoiding cause didn't want more spoilers. Maybe all the CHris hate is mainly only on tik tok? idk) but he was fine.

So it was sad that he was levaing and couldn't say goodbye to everyone

But what got me REALLY emotional was Bokkun

I LOVE Bokkun he is a little gremlin shithead of a child and he is amazing and him crying because Chris was leaving just like that HURT ME

ANd yeah Sonic running with the egg transporter was really nice and stuff like he just KNEW I was expecting him to do like a little wave or something

Also I JUST finished the series so I havent gotten to see the specific Sonic X fandom and the like what is obvious information in the fandom or canon that maybe wasn't explicitly said but like Eggman immediately starting to rebuild the Eggman empire was to help everyone return to a sense of normalcy, like heal or whatever. Like I said don't know if it's obvious information or not but thats what I got out of that :)

OH MY GOD SHADOW VISITING MOLLYS GRAVE THAT WAS ALSO A DEATH I WASNT EXPECTING TO GET EMOTIONAL ABOUT AND ALREADY KNEW BECAUSE OF FUCKING A POST OR A MEME FUCK

Today is my one-year anniversary of my neurosurgery!!

I had tethered cord syndrome--basically, where your spinal cord is stuck to the spine, so things like breathing, moving, and general existence tug on your brain, spine, and entire nervous system and can cause pretty bad nerve damage.

By this time last year, it was bad enough that sitting up for longer than 10 minutes made my spine burn like it was on fire, I couldn't do "basic" things like emptying the dishwasher without having to sleep for the rest of the day, I was losing my ability to walk, and my brain fog was too all-encompassing for me to do much but sleep--the idea of writing ANYTHING more than emails to my medical team, especially fiction or meta, was laughable.

I was miserable and also terrified that this surgery--which had the potential to cause other threatening problems--was the only thing that might give me hope for a future that contained more than watching my body and mind break down and die.

My amazing neurosurgeon had warned me that the goal of the surgery was to prevent things from getting worse, but that if I was lucky, I might regain some function, and that many people see dramatic improvements by the one year post-surgery mark, and that these improvements can continue up through the end of the second year post-surgery.

The recovery from the surgery in the hospital was absolute hell, but even then, despite the 10/10 pain, I could tell that my brain wasn't being yanked by the tether like an obnoxious elementary school boy pulling on pigtails anymore.

And things have only gotten better since then.

I can do chores around the apartment again, I can sit and walk more easily, much of the nerve damage in my lower half has healed, and I'm now even able to write for up to 8-10 hours a day again, which was something I didn't think I'd ever get to have back in my life.

And I'm still having improvements, and my neurosurgeon is optimistic they will continue.

I know there will be flares of my other chronic medical things, because that's part of these conditions and of being disabled. So things will always be up and down. But maybe the ups and downs will stay at this newer baseline. Maybe the baseline might even rise some more.

I've traditionally . . . not been great at believing I can have good things. I've had enough catastrophes and devastating realizations come after the best moments of my life that I am very very wary of letting myself truly believe something has worked out.

But, looking at this huge milestone, at the progress I've made, at the 27000 words of my MLC fic I've written with lots more planned, at the life I'm letting myself start to envision again--

--maybe it really will be ok.

And even if it's not, even if I lose all of this tomorrow, maybe it wouldn't be forever.

Maybe, if I came back from hell once, I could do it again.

Let's hope I don't have to find out.

Pre-canon Vi went from the Bee Kingdom to the Ant Kingdom. Alone. Through the desert. With the bandits, scorpions, and arrow worms. She didn't have a weapon at the time.

There's a story there. And it's not a happy one.

#there's a lot of extra horror hidden in the bug fables world #plenty of narrative gaps with frightening implications #you don't even have to look that hard #on a lighter note #AU where vi becomes a bandit #vi bug fables #bug fables

The press went NUTS when they found out the Dick was working as a pole dancer. It was big news, and everyone wanted to know how Bruce Wayne felt about his Baby Boy working as a stripper. B was… well, he was ticked. Not at Dick, no, he was just proud of him for getting a well paying job in an area he enjoyed. No, B’s fury sat squarely on the press. Papers that had gleefully printed sexual photos and articles about him were now aghast about Dick.

See, B’s whole “playboy” cover wasn’t originally exactly Bruce’s idea. He remembered vividly as a teenager the perceived humiliation of these adults sexualizing every little thing he did and of the constant anxiety of trying and failing to control his image; the way they seemed to pounce on any tiny flaw in his appearance or behavior and the paranoia that developed after the first of many photos of him was published of him just… going about his day, paired with a big red headline blasting him for daring to be a teenager. He remembered being terrified of being seen wearing a swimsuit and refusing to eat in public. So eventually, him leaning into this sexualization as a cover story wasn’t so much because he liked it, but because he knew how eagerly everyone would eat it up.

Now here was Dick, making an informed, consensual choice about how he wanted to be perceived, and they wanted to vilify him for it. So yes, B may have flew off the handles a bit, and yes, it probably wasn’t the best move to punch a reporter, but he had fought Hell to protect his kids from what he had gone through, and that sure as fuck wasn’t going to change any time soon.

#batman #bruce wayne #dick grayson #B wears a shirt that says “sex work is real work” for a month and a half over this #thinking about child stars and the shit they go through #the press learned early on that messing with any of the Wayne children was a good way to be sued into oblivion #B is tired #he just wants to be left alone #and maybe the whole “billionaire playboy” shtick is a way to try and reclaim his public perception but that's between him and his therapist #he only even actively tried to maintain it for like a year before he realized that it didn't matter what he did #there is a reason there are so many pictures of the Wayne kids flipping off the press #when they were in med school together Harley used to threaten reporters who tried to interview her with a baseball bat #Dent personally offered to do a whole lotta liable suits as soon as he passed the bar #on a lighter note #I do think Dick would legitimately enjoy pole dancing #and it's not like he's against running around in skimpy outfits #tw sexualization of minors #tw loss of autonomy #tw mentions of anxiety and possible EDs due to trauma

I've been toying with a daemon AU for The Terror (more like sobbing bc writing has been like pulling teeth lately but) it occurs to me that in a world with daemons the Tuunbaq is uh. Way more fucking terrifying?

Because in Pullman's canon, you cannot, like literally are unable to, mistake a daemon for a regular animal. It's not. It's a soul. It can be hidden in a flying flock of birds and you can instantly spot the daemon for what it is. Now imagine the Tuunbaq, the thing made of muscles and spells. It's not an animal... but it's not a daemon* either. You can see it and know it's something else, entirely. Not a soul, not an animal, but something alive and alert and actively against you.

How fucking terrifying would that be. How could Goodsir and the others even communicate that? And now the denial and the inability to properly express what the Tuunbaq fucking is makes so much more, and deeply awful, sense. Their doom is incomprehensible and undeniable.

*There is a version of this where the shamans, besides giving up their tongues, give up their daemon to the Tuunbaq as well and are soul bound to it instead explaining why both parties need to be physically near each other. Which again would add to the cosmic horror of it all, this thing that is not man or daemon but you can sense it eats souls and those traces of daemons are upon it. And this old man that they shot... where is his daemon?

Is it a case of "he's already dead dude, attempting medical care would be torture and irresponsible" which would change Stanley's reaction as a veteran war doctor who has seen these cases considerably or does it just fuel the racism horror in them being like wtf he has no daemon, is he even human?!

#Thoughts #daemon au #Daemons #The terror #The terror amc #On a lighter note #I know it is pronounced demon but i say it Damon. Because i prefer it. I think it vibes better

i've been pronouncing "shirase" wrong this whole time (i'm manga-only, so i haven't heard his name being said before)

i'm a fool
