hi important question . what are your top ten favorite ray images
That IS a very important question. However asking me to pick my favorite ray toro images is like asking me to pick a favorite child. Or a favorite movie, or song. Or book. Or Pokémon. Idk I was supposed to be a Libra and according to Gabe Saporta this means something. So instead I will tell you my ten favorite genres of Toro post, with two examples of each that are not my favorites but simply the first ones I can find on my camera roll that fit the category.
1) Most beautiful man you’ve ever seen in your life. Self-explanatory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2) Hair in his face and all you can see is his million dollar megawatt smile.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3) Still the most beautiful man you’ve ever seen but he doesn’t know how to smile on command for photographs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4) Gamergirl/On his puter
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5) Pictures where there is a mirror there (aka hey elle why does your mom let you have TWO ray toros in one image)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
6) He is singing
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7) Loves his friends
Tumblr media Tumblr media
8) Beverage
Tumblr media Tumblr media
9) He is on his back and food is involved somehow
Tumblr media Tumblr media
10) Ray with little guys
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Honorable Mention: There is a 30 image limit. Here are the next 10 ray images in my camera roll

dear white bandom tumblr, what the hell do you want us to say?
i’m tired. i’m really, really tired. 
look, what do you want us to say at this point? this was supposed to be a safe space, for the freaks and the outcasts, but we’ve long established that it is very much not safe. it’s crystal fucking clear.
and honestly, pretty much every white user on here is actively contributing to the hostility here. whether you like it or not, it’s not good to only reblog empty reassurances of anti-racism that do more service to yourself than to others. it’s not good to see poc on the dash trying to educate the white majority and doing everything possible to educate you, and either A) ignore it, B) like it, but don’t reblog it, because god forbid you sit with your discomfort for more than five seconds, or C) send racist anon hate to the original poster, or try to deflect their points. it’s not good to see something racist and let it slide. let me get this straight: none of these fans of color owe you anything. fans of color don’t owe you the time of day, fans of color don’t owe you education, and fans of color don’t owe you the dignity of a levelheaded reply in response to your racist comments. 
often times, we try to educate because we want this space to change. i mean, i didn’t have to write a five paragraph essay dissecting anti asian racism in mcr’s content. i did it because i was angry, and tired, and frustrated, and wanted the space to change. the same reason that every other ignored dissection and analysis that spent blood, sweat, tears, and emotional labor to make was created. a lot of the time you guys just don’t understand how much effort things like that take. and to be clear, this is not just the usual “oh my post didn’t go viral and i’m not a celebrity i’m so sad,” this is “i poured all of myself into trying to educate people that turned out to never care. i have been blatantly shown that the people around me aren’t interested in changing, no matter how much they claim to be.” 
and like, do you want me and countless other users to go in depth again? do you want us to jump from racist incident to racist incident? to hold your hand through explaining why making art of ray being arrested is bad, why gerard’s fetishization of asian people is bad, why making rising sun art and designs is bad, why reducing all of pete wentz’s work to being about mikey way is bad, why shaming people with non-european features for “not looking emo enough” is bad, why insulting and degrading pete and ray for their natural features is bad, why cropping ray out of tour videos is bad, why calling people slurs in their askboxes is bad? (and so much more that i didn’t add.) do you want us to go over the history of racism in alternative spaces as a whole? do you expect us to do all of those things for you on a whim, to make it palatable to you, as if we weren’t real people with real feelings behind the screen and as if we had infinite time and emotional energy? really? when there are many resources already out there, both online and offline? 
what all this tells me is you don’t see us as human. simple as that. you expect us to be able to take the abuse, to be able to silently let your racism pass, and if we ever speak up, you ignore the work we give to you and demand inhuman feats of patience and generosity, answering your every question and responding to your every debate and coddling you as you refuse to sit with the reality of the space you’ve helped to create. and that’s only if you claim to be on our side. 
it’s insane hearing you try to placate yourselves. trying to mindlessly agree without looking inward. i know this sounds harsh, but i know that most of you need to hear it. i just want this space to actually change, like i was begging for back in january and february. of course, i was foolish to believe that it ever would. and i’m foolish now, writing this as if people are ever going to pay attention. even if it does break a few hundred notes, it’s not like the message is going to stick around. sure, you’re “doing the work”, “listening and learning”, but how am i supposed to know that when your responses never change, and this scene stays the same as it ever was?

Previously: Hana ordered a bowl of Kitsune Udon and Ray asked a rather deep question to which Hana responded with clarity. @pokitsune
Ray listens attentively. But, as Hana takes a pensive stop to think, his hands sneakily shifts to the x-transceiver behind the counter away from their view.
Tumblr media
Sounds easy enough...
His attention is brought back to Hana as they started to talk once more. Other than a slight twitch at the words "I hated it-", Ray gives Hana his full attention..
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It wasn't long until Rio came back.
Tumblr media
She trots off, shooting a thoughtful glance over to Hana to see if her presence bothered them any longer. Nevertheless, she continues to do some "book keeping" away from Hana’s area–most likely to give them the reprieve from the cynophobia she was informed about.
After unpacking the groceries, Ray takes stock of what he has in front of him.
Tumblr media
Hana has already humored him with a deep response to a heavy question, so to keep them waiting without food would just be rude. He’s going to have to work with what he’s got and take short cuts.
Tumblr media
Short cuts or not, this was a delicate operation. Skipping the steps to soak the seaweed to boil it might risk a bitter and slimy stock if boiled too long. Take time too little to twice fry the tofu and you’ll end up with a sad addition of soggy tofu. He has to time it right…
Tumblr media
The broth shimmers with golden clarity. The noodles look like they are not too firm and not too soft. While there may be traces of some of the spice falling to the bottom of the bowl, it looks complete and carefully concocted.
A tasteful addition of the necessary toppings sit proudly on top. The Inari-Age looks like it's not typical of what you'd expect from Kitsune Udon, but reminiscent of the sweet and salty taste despite its hardened and crispy texture.
This is the type of a lunch that will have you ready to take on the afternoon without feeling too bloated. 
By all accounts, Ray thinks he did a pretty good job. He’s quite proud of himself for this one. 
I followed this recipe to do some research!
Tumblr media
I gave myself the limitation of "ok there's a customer who needs their food asap." So 10-15 minutes max. Here's what I found:
The recipe is absolutely right in claiming that dashi powder isn't as good as homebrewed dashi. HOWEVER I live in a place where Japanese ingredients are hard to come by. I'm actually surprised I didn't find bonito flakes.
You can skip the soaking konbu part, but I hiiiighly recommend it. You'll end up with a broth that doesn't feel complete if you skip this part. Speaking of broth, udon noodles are also extremely filling--if you make a broth with it, it better not be heavy because you'll be a vegetable after you eat. But if you get all the ingredients right, you'll end up with a good meal that I totally forgot to take a picture of. Just imagine it's what I drew because that looks better anyway
I didn't read the instructions close enough--the inari-age is supposed to be a marinated/seasoned in dashi, soy sauce, and mirin. I just had bland tofu puffs... In my defense, there's a lot of Japanese terms thrown around and the recipe blog was un-intuitive to follow.
Granted, there's absolutely no way you can make inari-age in the span of 20 minutes, especially if you're making the tofu from scratch. One way to change that, however, would probably be in the process of combining the seasoning/marinating process with the frying process. I can't confirm this, I haven't tried it and I was getting too antsy to let this reply go unfinished.

ooo EARTH and ENERGY! (for the ask thing)
EARTH: What inspires you the most?
&
ENERGY: What song inspires you the most?
im putting these two questions together as one answer bc they're interconnected in that way -- so largely with writing, music very much inspires me. i'll hear a song and a scene will pop into my head, or a general idea of a story, bc i gravitate towards music that tells a story or has compelling lyrics, or has great atmosphere. the band, Starset, is a very inspiring band for me for those reasons, bc the atmosphere is so expansive and there are so many emotional moments that i find i can craft stories around
so by that same token, one of the songs that inspires me the most (i cant say THE one song, bc i'll have different songs that inspire me for different fics) is "Disappear" by Starset.
but again, so many songs inspire me for different reasons. i have this one catmeleon au that has me gravitating towards "City of the Dead" by Eurielle. one of the scenes in my bumbleby massage au (man i miss that fic SDKFHSKGHSF) was written while listening to "Silhouette" by Aquilo on repeat. "Hold Me Now" by RED was the inspiration for the title for one of my chenrich fics.
so yeah many songs inspire me, and music inspires me a lot while writing. honestly the whole reason my one chenrich wip ("disappear" aka, the one where i had alex succumb to her wounds from her fall) even exists at all is bc of "Disappear" by starset and this ONE piece of gorgeous chenrich art that i happened to see at just the right moment, when i was listening to that song.
so. tl;dr is music and a variety of songs inspire me skghdkhg

responses you can give to people asking you rude/invasive/homo or transphobic questions at school:
"what's in your pants? / do you have a penis or a vagina?"
look at them for a really long time then go as disgustedly as you can manage "i don't want to fuck you"
"do you have a warrant?" (if they ask about what that means, say that you need proof in writing that theyre allowed to do that. if they write it down on paper then politely ask for the paper and eat it in front of them)
"dude, what the fuck"
"are you a boy or a girl?"
"i'm... pretty sure her room is downstairs? maybe you could ask [teacher] i don't know"
"sorry, i've sworn off false dichotomies"
"i'm not going to fuck you"
"really? you're going to ask me that in front of my [subject] assignment?"
"don't worry about it"
"are you gay?"
"what is this, twenty questions?"
"did you know that some species of antarctic sea sponges can live for over a thousand years? i can find you an article if you want" / other unrelated fact
some responses i've used that cover all of these questions are "are you a cop?", "legally i can't tell you that", "who are you again?", and my personal favorite, which is just silent prolonged eye contact

I hope some people — especially those budding writers — find this post helpful!
I’m an English teacher and one of my responsibilities is to teach creative writing, whether it’s description, a short story or the beginning of a longer story.
Here are some helpful tips I give my students:
Language
1. Show, don’t tell. This means to let me, as a reader, imagine what the scene looks like. How do I know a character is scared? Is their thinking disorientated? Are they short of breath? Are they sweating? Don’t simply say, “She was scared.”
2. Stay away from cliches. Reading something like “It sent shivers down my spine” or “My heart was pounding” really spoils the mood in something like a horror/thriller/Gothic story.
3. Appeal to the senses. Instead of telling me what the scene/character looks like, tell me what is smells, sounds or feels like. (Admittedly, taste might be quite hard!)
4. Don’t sacrifice description for dialogue. It’s enough to say “He/she/they said”. There’s no need to look up fancy synonyms for “said” as you’re writing will end up looking weird and forced. I never want to read “He expostulated” or “She sighed”
5. Use more than similes, metaphors and personification. You could use the rule of three, hyperbole, rhetorical questions
6. Vary sentence lengths. You could have a one-word sentence, a simple sentence, a complex sentence, a compound sentence and a compound-complex sentence. You could even use a sentence fragment. Don’t overuse the idea of the one-word sentence!
Simple sentence (one independent clause): I kicked the ball.
Complex sentence (two or more independent clauses): I kicked the ball because I wanted to.
Compound sentence (one independent clause and one or more dependent clause): I kicked the ball, and it hit Tom.
Compound-complex (two or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clause): I kicked the ball because I wanted to, and it hit Tom.
Sentence fragment (adds onto a previous sentence): I kicked the ball, and it hit Tom. Hard.
Triple (three related words listed): Cold, fragile, vulnerable.
A one-word sentence: Abandoned.
7. Contrast a character’s internal thoughts with their external actions. This isn’t to show that a character is two-faced. This is to tell your reader that something might not be quite right, that the character is thinking one thing and then doing another. Perhaps they’re scared or confused?
8. Use pathetic fallacy. This is when the weather reflects a character’s mood. Very simply, if it’s raining and dark, the character will feel sad; if it’s sunny and warm, the character will feel happy
9. Redraft, redraft, redraft. Write your work, and then use a thesaurus to improve word choices. Be careful though of mis-using words e.g. “Pulchritudinous smile” might sound better than “Beautiful smile” but it really sounds silly. In addition, sometimes simpler really is better e.g. the sentence “The snarling professor floated genially past us” doesn’t make sense at all! Sometimes it really is better to say “He walked”!
10. Vary the start of your sentences
Start with an adverb: Mercilessly lashing the window panes, the rain never ceased.
Start with a present participle: Lashing the window panes mercilessly, the rain never ceased.
Structure
1. Use cyclical structure. This means to mention an idea/word/theme/thing at the start of your writing, and to mention it again at the end. Using cliffhangers is lazy, and it often leaves readers unfulfilled.
2. Use a repeated motif. Repeat an idea/word/theme/thing throughout your work. This can be anything e.g. mention the weather, mention a character’s internal monologue.
3. Include a contrast. Could you contrast the mood at the beginning with the mood at the end? Could you contrast a character’s internal thoughts with their external actions/words?
4. Don’t keep the story in one time or place. Flash back or forwards to a different time period. Flash to a different location, perhaps from inside to outside.
5. Zoom in on a tiny detail (a grain of sand, a leaf, a beetle, someone’s thoughts), and then zoom out to deceive the bigger picture (the weather, the landscape).
Any other tips?
Read, read, read! An author I particularly recommend for getting inspiration about crafting dialogue, imagery and narrative is Ray Bradbury.
