ROTZBACKE! HAKENZAHN! OI! OI! OI!

#I know some people will disagree with me here and that is totally okay : #I grew up watching httyd and I absolutely prefer the german version over the og (which doesn't happen often) #I think it is so undeniably better in my opinion because it 1) is what I am used to #and 2) because I'm a northern german and the way they talk seems so close to home its just nice- #um's auf gut deutsch zu sagen: die hamburgern so schön /lh #of course in my family we mostly speak like that for emphasis or whatever but I JUST AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I LOVE IT SO MUCH #I can speak along with the movie in its entirety in german I just-only piece of media that had more of an impact on my life than Undertale #I will say I am sadly not a third movie enjoyer. I'm sorry I just didn't like it very much but I respect the people who do #I also have only watched it once while I've watched rtte like... idk 3 times? #also finally getting to the drawing- I LOVE SNOTLOUT AND HOOKFANG SO MUCCH #also Rotzbacke's Synchronsprecher is just so damn funny- #oh btw Planzin and Tectco watched me go through the five stages of grief when I realized the reason why angel dust sounded so familiar #in the german dub was because the voice actor is the same guy who voice acts fishlegs in german #pitske’s art #pitskederdoenerhaendler #so much shit going down guys I need to draw the entire dragon rider crew #httyd fanart #httyd #snotlout #snotlout jorgenson #hookfang #how to train your dragon

The unfortunate interaction between an ADHD girlie and an autism girlie where she's telling me something in depth but I can't make myself focus on it enough and eventually I get really understimulated while trying to listen.

#text post #shark thoughts #sadly this most often happens with history. I'm so sorry to my history fans but if you go into shit that happened in mid 1800s Spain #you're gonna lose me

A mutual reblogged a pr*ship post and their dni is now neutral. Unfallowed. Bolcked.

#see if i joke i don't CHOKE. on my tears. because this just keeps happening #i'm so scared to interact with mutuals for this exact reason #most i've made have either left me. became toxic over minor differences or become a degenerate. #which is sad because i really enjoyed this friend and all those friends before they or i cut ties #but this kind of shit is unforgivable to me. i've had bad experiences with a friend turning out to be a pr*shipper #everyone flocked to me to fix their traumas but i had talked to that person often. it hurt a lot. they harassed people who harassed them #i was only 15. and i was threatened but what the hell is a sheltered kid SUPPOSED to do back. i wasn't taught shit #people in their fucking 20's were trauma dumping to me in dms and sadly still go to me when they catch wind of this person- #'i need support' you need to get offline. please. just block and ignore. i'm tired. #i should not have had to be babysitting adults and older teens when i didn't know what half those words were at the time. #months ago i did something stupid when i was at my limit and mirrored the pettiness i saw. i was told i would drive someone to suicide. #over saying the person was a bit mean and bringing up some posts i thought they made #i did apologise when i got it wrong. but got threatened with the person possibly killing themselves in my inbox. #this person and the pr*ship person were famously at eachothers' throats #i do not stand by the pr*ship persons' actions. their opinions on the other person were honestly right though. the only thing i agree with. #once again i complain about proshits and gatekeeps. the two are almost as bad as eachother to me #or at least two awful sides that have affected me and my ability to make friends online. #so that's what this remined me of.

theres something abt suzaku and lelouch that makes for really nice atmospheric dreams for me i think it’s a big part of why cg has stuck with me lolll. very fitting actually bc i originally watched it because i kept having dreams about it and got curious…

#it’s interesting to see which things i get into end up being inspiration for memorable or atmospheric dreams…hxh for example i have many #fond dreams of from back when i thought about it more often and deeply and 999 i have a few dreams that stuck with me that are mostly about #the plot or events of the game rather than the characters like usual #as well as being about pretending i don’t know everything about the characters and events to blend in with the cast lolll #but dungeon meshi which i like about a thousand times more than cg hasn’t had that many great dreams so far #i can only think of one that’s really stuck with me although i have definitely had dm ish dreams and i remember them #maybe it’s just because i only read it about 3 months ago now but still it’s interesting to me #pip speaks #dream diary #oh btw the one that stuck with me was basically pov you’re kabru working as a server at a cafe where they arrange desserts in front of you #and having to figure out whos order was whose based on observing the guests. it was very fun like the restaurant video games i used to play #and senshi was the owner of the restaurant giving kabru tips since he was new #i wish i could share the vivid dream/good dream memory ability bc whenever i talk about it ppl are like yeah i don’t dream or #i don’t dream about characters i like. and i really like when it happens so i want more people to be able to do it. sadly i have no idea how

Jonathan Majors had a history of being abusive and only after he gets charged/arrested for it, ppl want to back those claims even further.

Like yeah I get this isn’t easy for some but I really do wish ppl who witnessed that behavior initially called out/reported the offender before another victim/survivor has to endure.

#like trust me I’m not expecting ppl to be courageous like that #it isn’t easy #I’ve sadly only found it to be customary due to experiences #so many relationships/friendships ended because due to me calling out & reporting abusive behavior #but ppl have to know that there’s other ppl out in the world that will stand for the common good #even if it’s scary #it has to be done #this happens waaaay too often :(( #drumcorpshero #jonathan majors

Chrissy Cunningham and reasons why I love her♡

(Inspired by this post, that I made myself)

#i truely deeply adore her #she didn't deserve what happened to her :((( #i miss her :(( <3 #also i feel like i am getting better at drawing in my sketchbook #like with the coloring and outlines and all that #because when i draw digitally i can redraw a line as often as i want #but on paper that is sadly not possible #but i feel like i did pretty well with this one :3 #stranger things #stranger things fanart #chrissy cunningham #i am finally finishing season four so there will probably be some more stranger things fanart #probably of robin #i love robin♡ #also eddie♡ #lyxchen's art

supernatural conventions are objectively the funniest things on earth bc they provide you with nothing but the various actors doing things & the saddest artist alleys in the universe. CW doesn’t allow artists to sell supernatural merchendise at their supernatural conventions because it would violate their copyright so it’s literally just a room of like, two brave artists selling technically generic art with vague allusions to supernatural (bracelets with squirrel and car charms, pictures of impalas, etc.) i love them dearly

#i probably wouldn’t go again bc like. idk. i don’t enjoy engaging with actors much anymore #& that’s sort of the whole point #but they were genuinely fun bc most of the actors doing panels were just kind of random people from the one-off episodes or short arcs #who spend their lives doing regular things & often are not full-time actors #and half the time don’t even realize spn is especially popular #but people LOVE them & they usually seem to be really really enjoying this random hour where they are treated like the most important #and coolest people on the planet #(also ime everyone knows the score and will happily jog their memories of like ‘oh your character was named X and you did Y’ #and if they don’t actually remember anything about spn which like. happens. they can just talk about whatever they’re doing now #idk its a good energy usually) #i wanted to see Death so badly but sadly he canceled out of the one i went to #i did see julian richings in a play one time though bc i used to live in toronto & he does local theatre

[interstellix]

sometimes i look at my friendship with my childhood friend/absolute best friend and i just become certain girl is my soulmate <3

#fr :( #we've known each other our entire lives #and it's funny bc when we were idk 5 or smth she asked me if i want to be her best friend #i didn't get the weight of that term back then so i just casually said yes loool #but we ended up actually being best friends #and we've never had any issues :( or problems at all #which is ironic because there was a period where we didn't talk or meet at all for i think around four years #like it just happened so suddenly #but it wasn't because of anything personal between me and her #at that point i thought she was cutting bonds w/o a word but i didn't find out until a gooood while later why it happened so i never held #any grudges against her #and by then we'd already been talking for two years after getting in touch w/ e/o again back in 2014 and without problem actually :') #none of us have ever said it out loud but i think we mutually agreed that we never stopped being best friends #sadly i haven't met her particularly often ever since then because she moved half the country away during the period where we didn't talk #and in a sense things won't be the exact same because of what caused it in the first place #but we're closer than ever!! and she makes me rly happy!! and she's acc one of the few i can w/o a doubt believe whenever she tells me kind #stuff bc idk bro she's just that genuine #something funny is that last time we met we'd both prepared gifts for e/o #like without saying anything #pure coincidence #and something that both of us included were cute mugs lmao #made us both laugh #started crying in the coffee shop we were at fdkfjkd #so ye i just love her a lot #like i've never believed in soulmates but she's an exception <33333

please help me- i used to be pretty smart but i’m having so much trouble grasping the concept of diegetic vs non-diegetic bdsm!

gfkjldghfd okay first of all I'm sorry for the confusion, if you're not finding anything on the phrase it's because I made it up and absolutely nobody but me ever uses it, but I haven't found a better way to express what I'm trying to say so I keep using it. but now you've given me an excuse to ramble on about some shit that is only relevant to me and my deeply inefficient way of talking and by god I'm going to take it.

SO. the way diegetic and non-diegetic are normally used is to talk about music and sound design in movies/tv shows. in case you aren't familiar with that concept, here's a rundown:

diegetic sound is sound that happens within the world of the movie/show and can be acknowledged by the characters, like a song playing on the stereo during a driving scene, or sung on stage in Phantom of the Opera. it's also most other sounds that happen in a movie, like the sounds of traffic in a city scene, or a thunderclap, or a marching band passing by. or one of the three stock horse sounds they use in every movie with a horse in it even though horses don't really vocalize much in real life, but that's beside the point, the horse is supposed to be actually making that noise within the movie's world and the characters can hear it whinnying.

non-diegetic sound is any sound that doesn't exist in the world of the movie/show and can't be perceived by the characters. this includes things like laugh tracks and most soundtrack music. when Duel of Fates plays in Star Wars during the lightsaber fight for dramatic effect, that's non-diegetic. it exists to the audience, but the characters don't know their fight is being backed by sick ass music and, sadly, can't hear it.

the lines can get blurry between the two, you've probably seen the film trope where the clearly non-diegetic music in the title sequence fades out to the same music, now diegetic and playing from the character's car stereo. and then there are things like Phantom of the Opera as mentioned above, where the soundtrack is also part of the plot, but Phantom of the Opera does also have segments of non-diegetic music: the Phantom probably does not have an entire orchestra and some guy with an electric guitar hiding down in his sewer just waiting for someone to break into song, but both of those show up in the songs they sing down there.

now, on to how I apply this to bdsm in fiction.

if I'm referring to diegetic bdsm what I mean is that the bdsm is acknowledged for what it is in-world. the characters themselves are roleplaying whatever scenarios their scenes involve and are operating with knowledge of real life rules/safety practices. if there's cnc depicted, it will be apparent at some point, usually right away, that both characters actually are fully consenting and it's all just a planned scene, and you'll often see on-screen negotiation and aftercare, and elements of the story may involve the kink community wherever the characters are. Love and Leashes is a great example of this, 50 Shades and Bonding are terrible examples of this, but they all feature characters that know they're doing bdsm and are intentional about it.

if I'm talking about non-diegetic bdsm, I'm referring to a story that portrays certain kinks without the direct acknowledgement that the characters are doing bdsm. this would be something like Captive Prince, or Phantom of the Opera again, or the vast majority of bodice ripper type stories where an innocent woman is kidnapped by a pirate king or something and totally doesn't want to be ravished but then it turns out he's so cool and sexy and good at ravishing that she decides she's into it and becomes his pirate consort or whatever it is that happens at the end of those books. the characters don't know they're playing out a cnc or D/s fantasy, and in-universe it's often straight up noncon or dubcon rather than cnc at all. the thing about entirely non-diegetic bdsm is that it's almost always Problematic™ in some way if you're not willing to meet the story where it's at, but as long as you're not judging it by the standards of diegetic bdsm, it's just providing the reader the same thing that a partner in a scene would: the illusion of whatever risk or taboo floats your boat, sometimes to extremes that can't be replicated in real life due to safety, practicality, physics, the law, vampires not being real, etc. it's consensual by default because it's already pretend; the characters are vehicles for the story and not actually people who can be hurt, and the reader chose to pick up the book and is aware that nothing in it is real, so it's all good.

this difference is where people tend to get hung up in the discourse, from what I've observed. which is why I started using this phrasing, because I think it's very crucial to be able to differentiate which one you're talking about if you try to have a conversation with someone about the portrayal of bdsm in media. it would also, frankly, be useful for tagging, because sometimes when you're in the mood for non-diegetic bodice ripper shit you'd call the police over in real life, it can get really annoying to read paragraphs of negotiation and check-ins that break the illusion of the scene and so on, and the opposite can be jarring too.

it's very possible to blur these together the same way Phantom of the Opera blurs its diegetic and non-diegetic music as well. this leaves you even more open to being misunderstood by people reading in bad faith, but it can also be really fun to play with. @not-poignant writes fantastic fanfic, novels, and original serials on ao3 that pull this off really well, if you're okay with some dark shit in your fiction I would highly recommend their work. some of it does get really fucking dark in places though, just like. be advised. read the tags and all that.

but yeah, spontaneous writer plug aside, that's what I mean.

#I found their original stuff while I was researching various waterhorses and their folklore for no reason #because one of the characters in their original work happens to be an each uisge #and then it turned out it ALSO included a lot of figures from welsh folklore in general #so yknow if you happen to have my incredibly specific hyperfixations you'll love it but even if you don't it's great #I didn't mean to bring up phantom of the opera so much it just happens to be very relevant to a lot of my talking points #I haven't actually seen it in years

[goldshykitsune]

I wanna post a story on AO3 but like... dunno what to tag it.

Like I dunno if it's a 13+ type story or a 17/18+ kind of story...

Also I think I know all the warning tags but I dunno and like these aren't characters related to anything but like I got into making this story at least a year ago about now so I had plenty of time to plan the entire story out but I might've made two different versions accidentally and other parts that I'm cutting out but like...

How do you post a story on AO3?

Or better yet I at least want this to find one person to read but dunno how or is it just like how my tumblr posts are like were I just post it and hope for the best and get really happy at the most simple of attention from people?

#geez #so much work #all for a story I want to post #well I may transfer other stories to AO3 or at least to a safe space. #oh geez I got a bunch art of the one character one the book I'm making but like I think I might've redesigned their hair to fit better. #but like I struggled with trying to draw this Chara #*character #(me having an artstyle that changes slightly every so often. also if I accidentally do realism I have troubles making actually humans.) #one day I'll get it where I can show you all what I mean but for now I cannot. #mainly cause I like doing photography but only got my phone camera sadly. #cameras are expensive and I definitely don't have enough money for even a cheap one. I barely have a laptop of my own cause it #happened to have been on a deal like 2ish years ago. #it was $100 and my family gave it to me as a present. #not the most expensive thing I own but still that is what is seen as expensive to me... actually 5 rings for I think it was $50 was expensiv #(though they were technically biker rings) #okay I'm getting off topic. #bye

Crackfic Idea:

30-year-old Zuko gets randomly flung back in time to his 16-year-old self. For a couple of hours at a time. At the most random times imaginable. Imagine the potential.

Zuko assumes that it's a dream or a vision, but definitely not real. He tries not to freak everybody out too badly, but he's also fully enjoying himself and seeing all of his friends as their young selves.

ZUKO, as he and Aang circle each other at the South Pole: I've spent years preparing for this encounter. Training, meditating. You're just a [Spirit Shwoop Sound] ... baby Aang!

AANG, confused: Well, more like preteen Aang. How do you know my name?

ZUKO, looking around: Wait, where are we?

AANG: Um... this is the-

SOKKA: Don't answer him! He's trying to get information out of you. You can't give away our location!

KATARA: Sokka, he's standing in the middle of our village. I think he knows.

ZUKO: We're here? This is so weird. I was just here for the Annual Penguin Race.

AANG: THERE'S AN ANNUAL PENGUIN RACE?!

ZUKO: Well, yeah, it was your idea... you gave a whole speech about cross-cultural cooperation and friendship, but I know you just wanted to go penguin sledding with a bunch of people...

AANG: Well, I-

SOKKA: Stop giving him more information! He already knows about the penguins!

Everybody else is confused, bewildered and even befuddled except for Iroh, who assumes that it's Spirit Shenanigans™️ and just fully accepts that his nephew likes tea and hugs and Pai Sho sometimes while being his usual shouty surly traumaball self at others.

ZUKO, stepping into the cabin: Hi, Uncle. I brought you some ginseng. How about a game of Pai Sho?

IROH, tearing up a little: I would love that, my nephew.

ZUKO: I wish we could do this more often, but you live so far away...

IROH, mentally calculating that he lives exactly three doors away from Zuko, and nodding sagely: The rat-viper may never climb the mountain that a hog-monkey can, but the monkey does not know what lies underneath it.

ZUKO, sighing sadly: I know, Uncle. I do appreciate my position in life, even if it has disadvantages.

IROH: Hmm. Your move, nephew.

The crew of Zuko's ship is terrified by the fact that whenever it happens, Zuko is somehow even more hyper-competent, seems to be weirdly calm about everything, and most unnervingly of all, he's polite.

SOLDIER: Here is a report on the best teahouses within three days travel of our current location, Sir. And, uh, Commander Zhao sent a messenger hawk.

ZUKO: Excellent. Thank you very much, Sergeant. I think we can ignore whatever Zhao has to say. In reply, I want you to send him a list of the most famous officers in Fire Nation history, and point out that none of them had sideburns. I want to see if he shaves them.

SOLDIER, sweating nervously: O-of course, Sir.

As a matter of fact, the whole fic could just be Zuko trolling Zhao. It would be glorious.

Smashed my finger on accident. This is what it looks like after 2 days of healing.

It doesn't hurt as much anymore, but it's still kind of sensitive...

So, of course, I'm going to play some video games.

The 141 have a ridiculous run of inside jokes that is continuosly ruining their lives, such as;

1.) If someone says, "You love it really," to you, you immediately have to agree with them, no matter what the circumstances. Otherwise, you lose the ability to do it back. This has resulted in many weird fake confessions, including one time in which Soap got fed up with people making your mom jokes at him and went on a rant about it. Ghost glanced at him in front of a room full of cadets and just went, "You love it really, though," and Soap almost died as he sadly nodded and replied, "Yeah, I do."

2.) If something even remotely sexual sounding is said about you, you must always say, "You're damn right I do/am/will," back. This backfired once when they were in a defreif and Price said something about Gaz "coming through the back door" and Gaz, without think, winked and replied "You're damn right I did," In front of everyone and got in trouble for mild insubordination. (The others almost died laughing as he realised what he'd done, who he'd done it to, and who he'd done it in front of (aka Price's bosses))

3.) When talking about Roach, they will always act like he's died. He hasn't, but none of them can stop the joke, and it always makes all of them crack up, even Roach. This once caused major panic, as once when Ghost was discussing their latest mission with Laswell, he said, "It was fine because Roach - God rest his soul -" and Laswell had about two minutes where she thinks Roach has dropped dead and she didn't fucking know.

4.) They will always make up bad stories for how they met Ghost, if anyone ever asks. It doesn't matter what the truth is, or who they're speaking to, when asked, all three of them will reply with some made up, overly dramatic or down right boring story on how they met. These stories ranged from Ghost, saving them from a shark attack (Gaz), Ghost selling them assorted drugs as a teenager (Roach), and most devastatingly is when Soap told a distant relative of his that he met Ghost after "finding him with my older brother, behind his wifes back" he does not have an older brother, and so there is no wife.

5.) They always reference the "Malibu incident." None of them have ever been to Malibu. Nothing bad has ever happened there, but now they've created a whole conspiracy in the British Army about a coverup that happened in Malibu. Price knows about this one and finds it endlessly funny, so he goes along with it, never directly mentioning it but refusing to deny it when someone asks. If anyone ever asks about the details of it, they just give a deadpanned look as if the other person should already know and say; "Don't make me say it." There are rumours. Like, a lot of rumours.

6.) Roach claps every time someone says, "I'll be there for you" because once he clapped at the wrong time during the friends intro and had been paying the price ever since. It doesn't happen often, but sometimes you'll just hear him clapping - not even in the tune to the friends theme. Just random clapping. If any of the others hear it, they almost always reply with "That's a fuckin' joke" in a really disappointed tone. It's confused a lot of people.

#call of duty #cod mw2 #john soap mactavish #simon ghost riley #kyle gaz garrick #gary roach sanderson #john price #kate laswell #they spend far too much time together #so their humour has kind of melded together to make their own goddamn language that nobody else ever understands #and they can't explain it either #because it always takes too long and by the time theyre done its not even funny #so they just look crazy to everyone #price knows about most of these but absolutely refuses to take part in them #except for malibu #because he actually finds that one funny #task force 141 #cod 141 #shit talker talks
