Wurm, first of all, hi!!! I'm so glad you're doing better! I've missed being on here as much and seeing your fucking brilliant content and commentary. Now, ask time! Want to tell us how much you love Uta and her family bonds? Any favorite moments? Things you wish we saw more of?

Omg hi !! 🥰🥰 (also do you like Star? Blaze? Delightful Human? gotta find the right name to call you hehe) I’m certainly making it… and I’ve missed being on here too!! I can’t wait to get home and dump all of my thoughts in a doc and read what everyone is writing 😭

Ok preface this is SUCH a rambley personal brain dump about her, I’ve projected so much onto this girl and as I’m writing all of this …. It’s turning into a novel, sorry in advanced!

My love for Uta is unending!!! It’s really not waned at all since the movie hype is kind of over, she’s really a character I’ve personally connected with on a lot of levels, she honestly feels like reader insert character Oda made for me specifically. I think it’s really special to see characters (especially female character) tap into the not so pretty sides of anger and grief and self destruction because, well, it’s messy and human and real. She makes me look back at my own reactions to my own childhood and family and hell , my own mental illness and the desperation to feel like I could fix everything despite not feeling like I deserved my own forgiveness or how I processed the traumas I lived through in ways that probably weren’t the best for me or others…. Idk i just get really really emotional about it. And seeing that maybe there’s a path for her for forgiveness and maybe forgiving herself and starting over is beautiful to see. (This is a ramble oh god 😅)

As far as her family, I’m seriously so in love with For Family it’s Worth the Fight 😭 like I believe that her and the rest of the Red Force can rebuild the family they had but TOO MUCH SHIT HAPPENED for that to just happen over night, as much as anyone might want that to happen. I know it’s been said before, but she’s still the same child left on that island when it comes to Shanks and co. Like that’s the realest freaking thing when it comes to putting yourself back into your dysfunctional family, all the same defensive mechanisms just crawl back to the surface. mwah mwah I love it it’s so good! (Plus I’m a fan of the Shanks/Beck daddy duo 😏)

As a side note, I’ve seen a lot of art revolving around Uta and the ASL brothers and THAT dynamic really gets my gears turning. They would have been absolute TERRORS together and I love it hehe 🥰

For things I want to see for her…. I really want this girl to have some friends and romantic interests, what can I say 😅 like I just feel in my bones that this girl’s ideas of friendship and romance are also a little messed up, but I also see that as an opportunity for her to learn how love can take many forms and be healthy.

Ahhhhh ok I think that’s all my brain could dump right now, that was a lot. She drives me crazy in the best of ways and I love her to pieces for everything she is 😭😭 thanks for letting me indulge in the brainrot 💕

#starblazer124 #uta #tldr I love her and she’s me and I will protect her with my life

Ahhh sorry if that was a lot, it's just 1:30 am for me and I'm autistic, so someone asking about Lore(TM) activated an old special interest like a sleeper agent 😅 Reading back over it, my ask was a rambling mess of info, but I am so so up for answering any questions about the source material for anyone, even if a lot of it needs to be disregarded!! I know if I were writing an Arthurian IF, I would def cut out a lot of the Real Fucked Up Stuff like Mordred's og origins (though I would still keep him around as an adopted kid or something because Son Boy Allowed) and choose my fave versions of the stories, so I totally get that. But yeah, this is an open offer for anyone to hit me up about Arthurian Legend if you want to know some of the og stuff and want some good recs for sources!!

(Also please talk to me about Gawain, Percival, and Merlin, they're my faves)

No, it’s fine! It’s great to see people get enthusiastic over topics they enjoy!!

And thank you for that offer, it’s really lovely of you! 🤍

Okay thought I made a very quick post just saying thank you for showing interest in my Sleep Token Oc! I wasn't expecting anyone to care 😅

I'm getting all the notes together now (both physically and on my phone) so that I can make the post somewhat presentable. It's going to be pictures of my notes and ramblings with text elaborating on them. Mainly cause my handwriting is one of those I can read but looks like a mess to others.

For now here are a few very quick little facts about them, I swear I'll have the main post out maybe today, tomorrow at the latest, and thank you so so much!

- Despite initially tying them directly to the band and then later mostly removing that connection, I believe both parties would have heard of one another and have occasionally interacted but not enough to be super close, I always liked the idea of them being able to play the violin.

- HATES bitter food, like they cannot stand it at all.

- Despite spiders somewhat unnerving them, only the ones with long legs and tiny bodies for some reason, they have a pet spider and can often be found talking to it (It's name is Arachne).

- "Arachne is smarter than this entire cult, and furthermore she doesn't talk back"

- Ex-greek mythology nerd. Or just a mythology nerd in general, they had or have a profound love of looking into different cultures, religions, myths etc. Still semi-true

- I'll talk about their relationship to the band in the proper full post but for a quick summary: like I stated before both parties know each other but aren't close-close but I think that if given the chance, they would get along well with IV.

- Is occasionally prone to being so deep into their work that sometimes they forget basic necessities and have to be snapped out of it.

- They fall into a weird area of having run out of fucks but still very much cares. Like they still worship Sleep and do as they say but there are definitely moments where they'll crack a light joke, they don't joke around a lot so it comes across as more of a sarcastic remark, against Sleep. Nothing that would get them in trouble, but they joke so rarely that it's a bit jarring.

- They can go from giving deep and profound advice to 'Sleep give me fucking strength, just do this you fucking numbskull'. So ya ran out of fucks but still very much cares.

That's all for now sorry! I promise I'll have the full thing out sometime today (maybe tomorrow at the latest)! I'm always open to criticism so when I post the full one feel free to rip into it. Thank you so much again!

(Obviously when I'm referring to the band I'm referring to them as their on stage personas, no connections to the people behind the masks. I know I probably don't have to clarify but I wanted to make it clear I'm firmly on the side of fucking respecting their wishes when it comes to keeping their identities private.)

#Sleep token #sleep token oc #thank you so much!#im genuinely excited to tell you about them!#just a quick post #St #again thank you so so much!

(A bit pretentious, I know)

Or, if you're looking for a fancy German compound word, could I perhaps interest you in "Sollbruchstelle"? (Word by word it means sth like should/planned-breaking-point)

Since idk if you know German, I shall leave you with a likely very mediocre explanation:

It's basically a part where something is made to be broken. For example, when you have those board game figures you have to push out of a piece of carton, it's the bits of paper that still connect the figure to the rest of the paper. (Was that understandable? Probably not, sorry.) Another (to me somehow less fitting but probably more comprehensible) example is those plastic seals you have to cut to open a box; like, you have to break them to get to and get use out of the thing.

I've been meaning to write sth inspired by that word for the longest time I think you could make that so beautifully angsty

Sorry for rambling so much, I'll go now 😅

i loved this prompt with my whole heart. so I tried to mash the two together. You can also read it on AO3

Leon had met many people over the years. Fellow players, would be teammates, coaches, trainers, owners, arena crew and fans but not a single one of those first introductions would matter to him unlike how meeting Connor Mcdavid did.

Connor was flown to Edmonton (pre-draft) to be shown around in case the Oilers won the lottery. Which in hindsight could’ve been Leon’s energy that ended up manifesting them the win of Connor entirely, but he’d never tell anyone that.

While Connor was getting paraded around, Leon was using his optional skate day in full force. He was trying his best to remain in the NHL this season, except deep down he knew it was gonna be short lived. Still he went about his day working on his one timer, meeting with the trainers, looking over some game footage, and then hitting the gym.

And maybe part of him wanted to hang out at the rink long enough he could meet this elusive Connor fellow. But Leon only caught glimpses of the guy through frosted windows, cut corners and low shadows. Until he was leaving the gym, fed up and tired with headphones blasting the new Drake album. Leon was picking a song when he felt himself collide with another force.

When the shock wore off Leon saw his phone and earbuds on the ground alongside Connor laying directly next to them.

“Holy shit are you okay?!“ Leon cursed as he towered over Connor. The panic of hurting Connor and by default somehow ruining the guys career before it even began. He felt his palms begin to sweat.

Leon had seen his tape, seen his pages of stats, seen what talent the guy had since he could skate. He was born for it. That’s what everyone said. And Leon believed them.

“Are you okay?” Leon repeated after catching his breath. The way Connor sat there, like a child looking confused as to why he was on the floor.

Leon stepped forward and put a hand out, Connor looked up at him and the second their eyes met Leon knew something was there between them. Bright, innocent green eyes stared at him as Connor shrugged and took Leon’s hand helping him up.

“Sorry man- I was just- trying to catch my breath from all…that,” Connor gestures vaguely in the direction behind him.

Leon nods “It’s a lot huh” remembering his draft year and all the promises he was told that never actually stuck.

Connor sighs “yeah as much as I’d dreamt of these kinds of moments. Meeting teams, hearing how talented I am, how excited they were to finally meet me. They kinda really suck.”

“You feel like a trophy, less like a human.”

Connor nods with enthusiasm “yeah yeah you get it. I’m uh Connor by the way.”

Leon smirks, “I got that from the whole looking suffocated thing.”

Connors eyes widen as a blush creeps around his collar, “uh right right sorry um- I mean uh-“

Leon chuckles, “I’m messing with you.”

Connors shoulders relax, “right. and you're Leon Draisaitl right?”

Leon feels his heart skip a beat, “The one and only.”

“I’ve seen you play, you're crazy talented” Connor says casually and now it was Leon’s turn to blush.

“Well, flattery will get you nowhere in this town but thank you. Same to you mcjesus.”

Connor rolls his eyes, “I see the nicknames travel along with the highlight reels huh.”

“Oh you know it.”

Connor then grins, “well I better get back to the welcoming committee but it was nice to meet you.”

“Same to you Connor. If you don’t end up here, well I guess I’ll blame myself.”

Connor laughs the most heartfelt laugh Leon’s heard in a while. It’s beautiful. “See you later Leo.” And then he’s gone.

For the first time ever, someone shortened his short name and made it sound like a term of endearment.

***

“Leo” the sound vibrates around him.

“Leo.” The voice says again.

“Babe, wake up” this time more clear.

Leon groans and pops an eyes open to see Connor’s concerned face staring at him. “Whaaat?” He whispers still half asleep.

“You were talking in your sleep…”

“What’d I say…”

“I couldn’t tell but you were laughing. Freaked me the fuck out.”

Leon leans over and kisses his shoulder, “I’m sorry… I uh…”

“What?”

“I was dreaming about the first time we met.”

Connors face goes still before he says, “when you ran into me and I fell on my ass.”

Leon grins, “I was positive that I hurt you.”

“I was more embarrassed than anything…well except-“ Connor pauses.

“No no finish your sentence.”

Connor rolls his eyes and sighs, then turns his head to look at Leon. “You can see where I’m going with this right” he pointed between the two of them “I thought you were insanely hot, even before meeting you. So literally running into you. I told myself to play dead for a second otherwise I would’ve probably confessed on the spot out of sheer nerves.”

Leon finds that fanasinating. He turns over and faces Connor fully, cheek smushed into the pillow. Leon lets out a low laugh, “you never told me that.”

“I think there’s a lot of things we’re still learning about each other.”

Leon’s face turn into a thin knowing smile.

“What?” Connor asks.

“You can’t laugh” Leon replies.

“I swear I won’t.”

Leon pauses, “That day- I knew we were gonna be more than friends.”

Connor hesitates then says, “what do you mean?”

“I mean that we were never going to be just friends, we were always going to be destined for more. Regardless if it ever happened.”

Connor pets through Leon’s hair and sighs, “You were someone who became such a constant in my life right from the beginning. And then how we became what we are on the ice definitely helped. I think we were always special individually and when we met… it just felt like reconnecting a part of your body that you had lost along the way” Connor adds, his fingers now playing with Leon’s ear.

Leon leans forward and kisses his lips. With barely a breath between them Leon whispers, “No one to this day has made me feel the way you do.”

“Likewise.”

“Marry me?”

Connors eyes flip back and forth between Leon’s eyes, searching for the punchline “seriously?”

“Dead.”

Connor kisses him.

Hello 👋🏻👋🏻, Answering the shortest question tags. That day when I asked the update was up for a while, then it when back to normal and now it seems to stick. As you may had notice now if you want to see a blog on the side (as before) it would open like another tab inside a tab (yes, I'm also confused by that) and well, the ask is only available if the person has the tab/option of ask me something on rather than the simple click and select between the direct messages and questions. (Why tumblr like to give headaches, who knows... but there are blogs without a way to send ask now...). Also, not problem with the ML info :) :) Now the long answer, and sorry if the first part is confusing, I just know how to explain that new update... "thanks" @staff Yeah, I was doing all good, I'm fine now too, it had been just a bit hard and stressing this week (and it's just Wednesday-late night but still) but noting that bad. How about you? Well, I alredy told you about the date for the finale, and so far nobody seems to post anything about dates for the finale, so the 12th would do :):) And well, excel isn't something that most people use anyway, right? (not at least if their work request it). Oh yes, fanfic fun is that, just have ideas that many can or not connect with and that it's great as crazy as it can be. :) :) Yeah, if they don't say forehand, we won't know if they speak other language. And it not like everyone would do it right away, can you image, "oh yeah I'm blablabla and speak more than one language who are you?" as introduction?? XD XD 😅😅 Also, oh well... thanks then :) :) I apreciate it. I really think I must lost my mind when deciding that, but that's on me XD XD Oh welllllll... if that's the case, I guess that made me feel a bit better :) :) Good to know I'm not the only one with the long ask... but well, I guess, I just trying to say as much as possible XD XD (I know I can be a bit weird, but I had accept that already :) :)) Oh... yeah... I was about to sign with my username.... next time :P :P Take care, see you ^^ ^^ -Le Fantôme anon

(re: this ask...and technically this one)

I have noticed the new window when clicking on another blog! I have not attempted to navigate to someone's asks from there. Looks like that's a fun new venture.

(The above wasn't confusing; you explained it well.)

Hopefully things settle down for you soon! This week has been better than the last couple for me, though strictly work-wise, as someone put it yesterday, it's like standing there watching a tidal wave coming and you know it's going to hit soon. (We're approaching our second busiest season of the year. It's just starting to trickle in, sometimes in fits and bursts, but it will slam into us soon enough.)

Re: excel use, I think it really depends on the nature of your work. I did not use it much in school (read: university) until I was doing a project that involved tens of thousands of data points, and then I learned a lot of tricks out of necessity, some of which I use at certain times of the year in my job now. And then other times I do a calculation that I learned years ago but can't quite remember and stare at it and go 'that can't be right; I must have messed that up' and make people double check my math. (Sometimes it is right. Sometimes it is not.)

*laughs* Yeah, I can't see anyone telling that to someone else first thing. It doesn't tend to come up naturally that quickly.

Rambling is a sigh of enjoyment, right? *grins* I always take it as a good thing. I've nothing against brevity, but I do enjoy reading what people go on about.

Until next time, Anon!

#long post #ladylynse #asks #by 'next time' I do not mean the ask I'm about to reply to #had a busy spurt at work #that coincided with being a bit short staffed between covid and safety training #we're still a bit behind but we're almost caught up #mostly #I have a couple of things I'm ignoring till we get caught up #and some stuff to deal with first thing on Monday when I'm back at work #since I'm off this weekend #which is good because we're under a snowfall warning and it was ugly out there today #tomorrow will not be better

Hi! Hey! Woah... holly shit and good morning. Hi. Hey. Hello. Ahem. I'm excited I cant write hold on.. yes!! Hi! Woah it really has been a while then huh °-° First of all, how are you? Hope you're doing wonderfully! Remember me perhaps? I dont think you do, cause it's been a clusterfuck of a couple of months and I haven't been around as much as liked it to, busy being edgy and falling into a frenzied, panic disordered, awful mental state and not giving any type of attention over anything that matters to me. It was like a coma. So really, I promise it wasn't intentional, my absence. My ignorance in every single thing I enjoy is not something I did on purpose. Sorry though. I should start on introducing myself again then eh? Before my rambling goes on forever and we all start ageing and sending our children to school and attending their graduation and so on. Okay. Here it comes. Ahem. HI! ITS ME! THAT FUCKING BATSHIT CRAZY ANON! REMEMBER ME??!??!?!?!? !!!? !!!!!!! ITS BRITNEY BITCH♡♡♡♡ anyway... hello!

I kickstarted my love over this fucked up fandom again a couple days ago and guess what? It seems I didnt miss a lot. Cause it came to my notice that you didnt finish if they knew all about you yet(which let me in on you with this little secret, it was the first thing I checked, meaning i value this story more than any of us thought was possible. Which is not weird but cmon, I didnt look for the movie. That action must speak for itself) and spiderman 3 is still not out (in my heart, cause that's what matters. Cause I wont be seeing the movie anytime soon. Cause now I value my mental wellbeing, thank you very much) So.. I guess it was okay at the end? I dont know. Speaking of which, what happened to that lovely story of yours? I hope you didnt abandon it. Not that, that is our decision to make (no, really. It's your story, your time and effort. If you wanna let the story go that's your decision as well) but... PLEASE I BEG! Cant you see we're all kinda dying out here? Like... are you gonna read the story to us over our graves or something? Cause if that's what you're planning on doing, you know what? Just like I said, that's fine at the end too. Fuck it why not? Take your time. Yeah. That's all I wanted to say actually. Really. I'm serious. Listen dear, I was in a kinda catatonic AND frenzied state at the same time this entire month and now that it ended (hopefully) I can see(from a very clear perspective) that whatever happens, if I do whatever pleases me and doesn't hurt me it will be completely fine at the end. So.. yeah. You take care. That was it. Yes. I think I made a fuckton of grammar mistakes back there. But I dont care. Sorry. I dont think I would make sense to anyone if it was written without a mistake either so imma leave it like that. I'm a mess right now. Have I asked how you were? I dont remember. Then I shall ask agAIN!!! How are you dear sugar bear cutiepie cookie dough dearest writer? Send the fucking ravens, the batshit crazy anon is back (unfortunately so. I will not be covering your therapist expanses after this, sorry but I'm broke now)

Yeah. Okay. That was it i quess? I dont know. I had a lot to say when I started writing this but I dont think I touched any of the topics I wanted to. Fuck it. I'm gonna leave now. I have a new plushie bye the way. His name is Chris, short for antichrist. Yes, that was a joke. Haha I made a funny. Yeah okay. I'm leaving now. Take care, have fun, dont be like me, love you bye

Aaah, hello!!! I completely missed your message! Only popped up with a new ask I just got 😱

I'm doing well! I'm currently busy finishing the last chapters of "If They Knew All About You". I'll post again when I finalized that epilogue and I hope you'll enjoy it 🤗

No, I won't make it to 100 chapters by the way 😅
