Love when writers do an insane amount of unnecessary research for their fics. I follow an author that did like 8 months of intense research into 14th century Scotland so they could write smut about it, and guess what. It was some fucking incredible porn AND I learned about old Scottish politics

#personal tag #and I’ll stand by them!!!! #author of this fic I summon thee to this post #I love your intense research and I don’t give a FUCK how long it’ll take to post a chapter #take your time I’ll be here :):)

your new friend vernon is walking you home one night, telling you all about the date his mom is setting him up on in an attempt to “get out there more”. he admits it’s been a while since he’s taken somebody on a date, and he’s sort of nervous and half dreading it. he doesn’t even have any idea what he’s going to wear.

the two of you reach the front of your apartment building, and you face to look at him. placing your hands on his shoulders you teasingly say, “wear that navy blue polo shirt of yours. it almost makes you look nice.”

he huffs out a small laugh in response, but the truth is he’s sort of spiraling. you notice what he’s wearing beyond an aesthetic sense? do you pay attention to how the shirt fits him perfectly, how it hugs at his chest and shows off his arms? of course, vernon knows he’s attractive — people swoon over him on the daily, and many times he can get away with not paying for ramen at the convenience store if the girl at the counter is young. but, it never crossed his mind that you thought about him in that way. it was different with you, wasn’t it?

he thinks about that, and you, on the way back to his dorm.

you text him to ask about his date the next night, the curiosity getting the better of you.

how was ur date? did she appreciate the polo?

he admits he didn’t wear the polo, but doesn’t offer any explanation as to why. he adds that the date was going fine until they were saying goodbye and she went in for a kiss on the cheek and he held out his hand. he probably won’t see her again.

you laugh out loud at his message.

when it’s your birthday a week later, he wears the polo to the casual dinner you host at your place with your closest friends. he notices when your eyes linger on his lean figure, and the way you blush when you know you’ve been caught. you’re almost sure he’s worn it on purpose.

#he hangs back after everyone’s gone and offers to help with the dishes #you insist that he doesn’t have to #he’s already done enough with the probably expensive gift he got you and taking time out of his busy schedule to be here #but he’s persistent about staying so you let him #he puts on your apron that has little cupcakes on them and they make his chest stand out even more #you want to pull your hair out your scalp #maybe it doesn’t go far that night. maybe he loads your dishwasher and laughs at your jokes and recounts memorable moments from the dinner #maybe you go to bed dreaming of more. #just maybe. #anyways this isn’t anything like. it was an idea i had as part of that long fic of mine that I’ll never get around to writing but anyways. #vernon fluff #vernon x reader #chwe vernon #vernon #like this isn’t an excerpt it’s just… been on my mind that’s all

I want my mutuals to know—

I OBSESS over your work. I ain’t even playin’ around here. I’ll be balls deep in a fantasy world YOU created, in my own mind at all times of day, just frolicking around in the world YOU built.

Give yourself more credit. Give yourself more time. Give yourself more rest.

True fans give space, appreciation, and understanding for life happening outside.

#I see a lot of burnout amongst authors #they need the appreciation they deserve #and the rest and relaxation #sure as shit I can wait #I’ll still be here when you come back #take your time and enjoy yourself #I love y’all #Yan gets sappy

i’m very sorry, but you guys have got to properly label your ao3 fics because “bad parents jack and maddie fenton” is starting to really get on my nerves.

and if, in the middle of the fic, you decide to add a tag like that: PLEASE communicate that you’ve done so in the chapter notes. because i don’t recheck the tags after i’ve bookmarked something.

please. i don’t think it’s that big of an ask.

#did we watch the same show ??? #this is the woman that carried danny on her back across the forest #the ones that went around town blaring announcements of ‘cutest sweetest boy in the world’ when he went missing #the people that accepted him without question not once #not TWICE #but THREE TIMES. #and if it was the odd fic here and there i wouldnt be frustrated #but suddenly its ALL OF THEM. #PLEASE TAG YOUR FICS PROPERLY. #danny phantom #power to you and your artistic vision i guess but im begging over here. #im getting old im 22 i cant take these surprises anymore #its not even bad anymore its just abusive #and more than half the time it has nothing to do with the plot. it’s just a device to get danny somewhere or make him sad #im sorry im getting mad again i’ll stop #tag your fics end of story

tumblr glitched and spared you all the most heated rant of my entire hoa fandom tenure

#idek what happened i answered the ask & hit post but it completely deleted LOL #I’m not gonna bother to reanswer anon’s ask so I’ll give you the abridged version: #i would not feel the need to post so much about season 3 of hoa if people would stop being such virulent haters #and hold this season to an entirely different standard than the other two #like it genuinely makes no sense #i cannot stress enough that you can like s3 the least #that’s your prerogative #but to be so LOUD and so WRONG #ALL THE TIME??? #makes me genuinely mental #SEASON 2 IS LITERALLY MY FAVORITE SEASON #but season 3 needs love and so it’s been 11 years of me giving her love #anyway i guess i just gave you a take version of my rant #and @ anon: fuck you LOL leave me alone once and for all #i love having discussions and deep dives tho please do not think I’m @ing anyone on here you guys are chill and smart #and make good points and do great work and i love you #but if you’re a genuine s3 hater please fuck off to someone else’s blog i BEG #AND if you’re the anon who refuses to leave me in peace? i hope your pillow is warm on both sides #tess rambles

Please understand that, more often than not, works of fiction are a fictional exploration of concepts and ideas rather than a declaration of morality

#there’s a difference between fiction that condones disgusting things and one that’s breaking them apart and analyzing them through fiction #reading comprehension and understanding context is important YALL #please I beg learn how to separate fiction from reality folks #every so often I’ll see people making WILD claims about a person because they wrote a complex and flawed character #most of the people I know who enjoy exploring dark and questionable themes in their work are the kindest and most selfless people I know #while the people who sit atop a pedestal and judge every aspect of a stranger that they don’t know turn out to be the most selfish and vile #i should not be scared to write a story about morally questionable characters finding humanity #but yet here we are #Ive seen this kinda stuff do more harm than good too many times #sorry to post a hot take #just good lord I’m old I’ve seen this shit too many times #stop eating each other #you will see conflict and dark themes in my stories #if you cant handle messy themes in fiction please feel free to unfollow or block me for your own mental well-being #I’m sure I’ll regret posting this later but just putting it out there #hate being reminded that as a creator strangers are staring at you and making horrifying assumptions about who you are as a person

Bad has so many reasons to be cautious, even paranoid, as anyone else on the island. From Federation nonsense to Dapper being kidnapped to the whole purgatory nonsense to whatever fuckass suit of armor “old friend” was setting up cameras in his house. But it compounds on his regular overly aware paranoid self to this state of hyper-paranoia. And as a demon who can and usually will lie, cheat, steal, and use sneaky underhanded tactics, he expects the craziest extent because he thinks of it, realizes it’s possible, and would use it himself. We saw this very obviously in purgatory - when he thought greens desperate last ditch effort to balance the scale was a super planned out tactic to tip the scale, so he did it first, all the hardcore base hunting, the spawn killing, there’s a reason every other tactic he used usually followed a main channel qsmp post with updated rules - all usually things he was surprised no one else thought of. But then this also piles onto the fact that he has to have things go his way, all the time, and that he’s argumentative as all get out, which led to the debate between him and Bagi yknow. Especially because he’s not just doing it for the sake of being right, he doesn’t think he’s paranoid, but that he’s exercising the right amount of caution.

So like. Listen dude. Yeah he’s got reasons to be paranoid. But his thought process around building vaults for separate cookie caches like they locked up the risus pills, only to scrap it because it’s not perfectly impenetrable, is extreme. His character has hardly been a leading example in someone who has reasonable reactions to things. And even when there isn’t his own children’s livelihoods potentially on the line, he has a need for control, and the most control he has is if he keeps the cookies in his inventory at all times. If he makes himself the sole point in which the others can get ones in a case of emergency, then he can control the variables. The problem is he’s unreliable about himself when he’s at his most rational and healthiest, and he’s far worse with the current memory and health issues he’s been mostly unaware of.

I dunno it’s like. There is never going to be a purely impenetrable base. And it’s not just a case of “Bagi just hasn’t lived through __ yet!”. Bad’s own logic about keeping the cookies on him at all times is flawed under his own logic, because Bagi is right - if someone has enough drive to break into separate secured cookie caches purely for the downfall of eggs, they more than certainly have enough drive to find a way to kill Bad and just take them from his inventory, or to just kill the eggs themselves. All it truly does is give Bad a sense of control, and soothe his paranoia.

#everyone let’s remember rurus’ tweet about bad NOT being in the blunt rotation. he would try to pluck cameras out of your eyes. and he will #make it seem like it’s the most reasonable thing to do in that moment #now this is more me complaining about shit I’ve been seeing on Twitter in the tags <3 love and peace but I’ve got beef #side note - to say the people who are commenting on qBad’s paranoia or this and that are all newcomers who just ‘weren’t there to experienc #-the dark times’ or ‘weren’t there for the egg deaths/nightmares’ like you are not immune to the way bbh can make something seem so #reasonable #he’s got his own reasons to be paranoid. and most everyone agreed that the base idea of a ‘cookie jar’ would need rethinking with security #but to say qBagi (or Jorge’s/other viewers) is shortsighted or naive. when qBad is THE definition of paranoia. of overreacting. like #qBad’s reaction extends from a mixture of care hyper paranoia and trauma response (which is half that hyper paranoia) #and he will pick and pick and pick until there’s nothing left to pick at #sometimes this is helpful. a lot of the time it’s not #and on the flip side it’s like y’all bad cares about the eggs to a ridiculous degree don’t be silly here okay. he does this because he care #even without a memory in his brain he calls them ‘little one’ and is gentle like. he cares #but at the same time this doesn’t always justify his nonsense. his thought processes. he’s Uber hyper paranoid and not easy to reason with #he’s selfish he can and will jump to extremes he’s overly controlling. and he’s the worlds most unreliable narrator #I’ve been saying this I’ll keep saying this he’s an unreliable narrator! this doesn’t make everything he says or thinks bullshit but you #cannot take what he says to himself how he justifies his actions etc etc in private at face value. unless he is making it EXPLICITLY CLEAR #he’s talking from a meta perspective as the creator of his character #you have to take his perspective with a grain of salt. because he will ‘I’m just a little guy and the world is out to get me’ his way outta #everything #there is a difference between reasonable caution from learned past experiences and overly anxious paranoid responses #idk I’m running out of steam sorry this is like a second post with the tags #and again I say this as a huge qBbh enjoyer lmao #mcyt #qsmp #q!bbh #q!bagi #z speaks

FUN FACT! - a set of commissioned pins, hand carved and printed by yours truly. 3” x 1 1/2” each

As you may or may not know, I’ve worked the Maryland renaissance festival for the last three seasons, with this season likely being my last full one for a long while. These pins were commissioned by my boss to celebrate a group of patrons who have visited us consistently (almost) every single day of the fair for the past three years. Rain or shine, they graced our presence with love, joy, and of course, FUN FACTS!

I Hope I’ll be able to visit next season, but until then, Hazzah!

#original art #artists on tumblr #relief printing #printmakers on tumblr #printmaking #pins #commissions #ht’s art #I’ll likely be taking on commissions like this more in the future so if that interests you in any way let me know and keep an eye out #if you are like ‘why are these so janky’/‘why do your stitches look like ass’ #I had 4 days to make them.. it was a rush order I didn’t have time I had to just GO #also we love jank here in this house #renaissance festival #renfest

I started reading Lord of the Rings (bought Fellowship of the Ring like… last spring but never got around to starting) and I’d just like to say. Holy fuck what a slow book. You mean to tell me I’m over a hundred pages in and this man is only just leaving the Shire? Sign me up for MORE I love this shit. Tolkien said “I will take exactly as much time as I want to describe things and you will like it”. AND I DO

#i can already tell this is the sort of thing that’s going to be so good I’ll never recover from it #I’ve watched the movies like casually-in-the-background a couple times so I know the approximate plot #(they often run on TV somewhere around Christmas and New Year’s in Sweden so they’ve been on more than twice) #but there’s so much detail here that’s just… missed out on… in the films #Or I forgot about it lmfao #Either way loving the book detail #And also reading a book for the first time in months i told my mom id been reading today and she was like YOURE READING?! #It’s part of my social media healing process. Forcing me to like… sit down and take shit in #Used to DEVOUR books when I was younger #Just Kinda Stopped at some point (much like every other former gifted kid) #But it’s a well missed moment of escapism and calm and centering myself. meditative almost #I find lotr to be good also because it’s like… a little heavy. You can read a chapter and then sit with it for a little while #Im not quite reaching the heavy cliffhangers yet either #Each chapter feels pretty concluded #It’s a healthier reading method I feel than the ‘devour in one night then don’t read for 6 months’ thing I did in high school #the few times i DID sit down to read a book #God damn those are some long tags #z talks #not horse game #I feel so late to the party because I always see all these people enjoying lotr ;-; its so established and here am i…. #but alas

not to be the zukka girl that requests zukka for the art reqs but um……zukka for the art reqs perhaps?? it’s zukka week

woah it is zukka week….. titled calm before the storm (divorce)/listening to your bf infodump is a love language

[id: a drawing of sokka and zuko against a light blue background. they stand closely together, side-by-side, dressed in their respective nation’s colors. sokka smiles and explains something, one hand over zuko’s shoulder, the other pointing for emphasis. zuko looks at him with a fond expression, holding a sleeping baby druk in a blanket to his chest. end id.]

#ask #req #raii draws a lot #do I tag this #atla #zukka #fine. fine yeah I’ll do that. here’s your blorbo bleebus also :] I like to think this is like. few months after the war #in a world where zuko doesn’t take up the role of firelord and sokka just bounces around the world to explore and sometimes visits the fire #nation and the entire time he’s there they’re like. inseparable. he wants to tell zuko everything he’s seen and learned and zuko shows off #druk like a proud dragon dad like “look at this horrible little man I would kill for him” and sokka concurs so they just carry him around #like he’s a little baby guy and everyone thinks they’re fucking weird… altho I will say I think zuko visits sokka more than vice versa #like. sokka does not gel with the fn and zuko also has plenty of uncomfortable feelings with it. maybe a few years in the future they #spend more of their time there less out of “oh we like this place now” and more “I’m ruling here it’s my duty” and “my daughter lives here” #sorry for thinking thoughts also WKSGJSGJGJSGUGE #vee tag

is it gay to be so overwhelmed with emotions by thinking about someone you care about so much you almost want to pick up writing again

#- but also it’s night time and you can’t fall asleep even though you need to get up early #and you’re just stuck imagining the lines you want written down #so your only options are to do it now while they’re still there #or not and then forget all of them in the morning and cry #hi i’m the gay one help i haven’t been in this state in a while #i’m just in that state again somehow i guess #probably because i never got a chance to tell this person how something so small for them meant a world to me in that moment #i hope i’ll be able to tell you all that myself in a more direction way but i love you so much you mean the world to me #okay i don’t actually want to scare you off by saying that but knowing what my mind is imagining for this you’d think that yourself anyway #i should probably stop taking now it’s way too late and i’m being tooooo emotionally vulnerable rn #hi guys sleepy night time frab here i’m the (other) emotion + vulnerable one #don’t you love to see it #i wonder if anyone is still down here reading these tags #hi if you are! send aaaa hmmm send a little ‘£; e’ if you read to this point #also why r u still reading? weirdoooo /jk love you #but really don’t be down here too long i’m sorta bleeding all my feelings out right now #because i’m so bad at expressing myself directly and as soon as i want to #ugh i’ll leave now i’m lonely and talking to myself too much again #night night everpony #frabrant #wonder if i’ll write more again… ok i’m LEVAING now gah

ranking each member of the hansa’s handwriting from best to worst

geralt: he learned to read and write just twenty-four runes only for nenneke to scold him that his handwriting is terribly sloppy. it’s like… half-decent. he just has the writing of a middle-aged dad who doesn’t care what his writing looks like to others. but he always has had that writing, even when twelve. perhaps it was his destiny. however, he has good spelling and a somewhat-impressive vocabulary

cahir: he had pretty good, well-formed, standard runes. had to write imperal reports of his activities so he has had practice making it easy to read. his northern runes looked a little unique because written nilfgaardian uses different strokes but his nilfgaardian writing looked like the guides people get in school. so all was good. but he was left-handed, and ciri slashed his hand on thanedd, leaving two of his fingers unable to bend and overall with poor motor skills. so he borrowed some paper and a pencil from dandelion in mid-september and taught himself how to write with his right hand. he and milva spent a week and a half together in early october looking at the painstakingly written northern runes and nilfgaardian alphabet when in the druids’ sick bay in caed myrkvid. neither set look that great now tbh but now he has a hobby

dandelion: he is capable of fanciful calligraphy when it’s a love letter for a woman (or five). but he writes complete incomprehensible scratch when writing notes for himself. he has writer notes-scratch. much to his very own chagrin when he reviews his notes later. also frequently tries to write in the dark or by poor candlelight. also when he was a student he would write lazily because he couldn’t be arsed to do it nicely, the fact that he did the assignment at all was a cause of sensation for his professors. and one for celebration, as the thoughts contained in that scribble were usually profound and owing further consideration

angoulême: frequently misspells her words, as she mostly spells phonetically and guesses half the time. uses colloquial shortenings of words which also contributes to the puzzling nature of her writing. sometimes likes to write some of her runes backwards on purpose to mess with people who read it.

regis: he’s a doctor

milva:

#for milva. see cahir’s bit. she’s illiterate and the one time she was encouraged to write was with cahir then #she doesnt care much for it . however they bond in friendship #regis… regis draws one curvy scribbled line and says it contains several sentences worth of information #regis: ‘here i’ll write it for you’ | geralt: ‘thanks. (..) hey.. what.. is this’ #regis: ‘it says (…)’ | geralt: ‘youre kidding.’ | regis: ‘why would i be kidding’ #geralt: ‘dandelion take a look at this. what does that say’ #dandelion who could decipher the handwriting of everyone from that of court scribes to of scrawled lusty details on a napkin: #‘what the devil are you on about. writing? that’s a line.’ #they give it to cahir. cahir turns the scrap of paper upside down and looks at it like it’s modern art #the funniest thing now would be if they gave it to milva and milva read it PERFECTLY #txt #the witcher books #f: a hansa’s a hansa #c: geralt #c: regis #c: dandelion #c: milva #c: cahir #c: angouleme

To anyone who sent me a message in tumblr chat recently (as in the last day), sorry for not replying, I can’t access my tumblr chat messages and I am functionally not showing up in the notes/activity of anything I interacted in 😔

I already sent a support ticket and hopefully this is a glitch and not what I think it is but yeah, if you wanna contact me I do have other means (discord, telegram, etc) in the mean time, just let me know your handles. I can’t see my inbox messages either but you can leave comments on my notes (I can’t reply though)

EDIT:

This is seriously happening to other people?? I know this site has been glitching in other ways (not for me except for this, but the new reblog chain feature has been messing people’s dashes and notifs, I saw a few posts about it) but like. Having a glitch making people accidentally sh*d*wb*nn*d is pretty damn bad.

I guess y’all be on the look out if this is happening to you

#personal #I literally saw the change when I refreshed just doing my normal thing on here #but I swear if I got sh*d*wb*nn*d again for the second time and this time no discernible reason why I’ll scream #I can’t take another ‘wait another month to get your account back to normal’ 😔 #haha I’m invisible yet again *sarcasm* 🙄
