I cannot that believe in this, the year of our lord & savior Boo Seungkwan, that I have to be making this post.

STOP. REPOSTING. OUR WORKS.

Most, if not all, of the writers I follow and am friends with DO NOT ALLOW REPOSTING. On my blog, you have to pass three posts that tell you not to repost, translate, or continue my works. It's also posted at the top of every one-shot, chapter, timestamp, and drabble. It's on all of my masterlists. It's on all of my masterposts. It's everywhere except in my description. Do not repost my work. Do not repost my writing. Do not repost my graphics. Do not repost anything on my blog that has that funky little C with the circle around it. ©️ Stop taking my intellectual property and posting it without my permission. I don't care if you credit me. You didn't ask and even if you did, I still don't allow it. That's 70k views, reblogs, and comments I'm missing out on cause you stole something that didn't belong to you. And your cute little note at the end telling the readers to visit my blog and "show them some love uwu" isn't going to encourage them to do so and you know it.

If I have to keep saying this shit, I'm just going to stop posting altogether. I'm sick of this shit happening to me, to my friends, and to everyone else on this site. We work hard on these stories. They don't just fall out of the sky or come out of our asses. Some of these stories have taken literal years for us to write. I just finished a sequel to a piece I wrote four fucking years ago and it's sitting at just over 18k. 18 thousand words. 18,000. Let that sink in. It's not easy to write that much. Hell, it's taken me 4 years to complete the damned thing. Four. Years. Not days. Not weeks. Not months. But YEARS. And it's incredibly disheartening when something that took me a long time is just copied and pasted to another website without my knowledge or permission.

Make your own fucking content and stop taking ours.

And on that note; STOP FUCKING STEALING GIFS, TOO.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. ✌🏻

#I say no! Because it's clearly against his wishes and I am a strong advocate of children's rights.#He should have been able to decide for himself whom to live with and I would've hoped the enlightened future world of the Federation #would have recognized that :(#Star Trek: Deep Space 9 #And now I'm wondering what everyone else thinks so!

love when u play a game and see some recurring themes in the negative reviews, then u actually play it yourself and know that people just aren't used to that kind of game or had preconceptions that just weren't correct.

#I'm playing a metroidvania that i think was tagged as souls-like too. and i see how both classifications tie into it.#and being someone who thoroughly enjoys and is used to both genres - and is coming from a ds3 replay #i picked up the parry timing IMMEDIATELY and think it's super fun.#i feel like the reviews r ppl who r used to metroidvanias wanting more healing items laying around and ppl who r used to souls games #not being used to having the platforming/traversal aspects incorporated into combat. but I'm sorta seeing #aspects from both games that I'd expect (or even want!) and idk it's just a lot of fun so far :3 #i got rly sucked into playing Grime on my lunch and it's very fresh on my mind (⁠｡⁠ﾉ⁠ω⁠＼⁠｡⁠) I'm excited to play more later #regarding the lack of healing abilities or loot though like they literally DO give u healing right off the bat u just gotta learn the #parry mechanic! if u time it right u can absorb an enemy (or part of it if it's a boss) and once this meter is filled u can regen health.#so it kinda encourages u to go fight and absorb things instead of just outright killing everything w melee/projectiles #there r ppl who claim to be fans of the genres too but yeah i just do not feel the same sry to y'all.#i think part of it too is this greater issue with art where‚ in my observation‚ people don't rly like going into things w no #expectations or preconceptions. also calling things bad for not being perfect even though they never tried to be there's just a #specific story they wanted to tell or experience they wanted to share and did that well.#the latter really bugs me (⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠) and falls under the “u can say u didn't like it without it being Bad” umbrella. like it's fine to #just Not Like Something while still acknowledging it does what it set out to do.

UHH HIHIHI here's a slightly more personal poem about a dilemma i'm having about my senior walk this year

A flag is a symbol meant to be waved with pride Yet sometimes it's never given a chance to be so divine

Hate and bigotry are here in this school A safety to believe would make one a fool

The walk is supposed to be an accomplishment Another girl waved her own flag and yet I can't do the same and feel like a disappointment

Having pride in oneself doesn't always apply here Sometimes pride gets you harassed and your face red with tears

Just tell me you'll remember, promise me one time That at least once before you die

You'll wave that flag up to the sky

#pyro has a story to tell #pride #queer #lgbtq #lgbtqia #poem #poetry #writing #queerphobia #queerphobia tw #ask to tag #slightly humorous thing #i wrote this at like 11 pm #and revised it as of typing [its 8 am]#i didn't imply it good but the 'pride doesn't always apply here' part #is cause pride in your heritage is heavily encouraged where i live #but when it comes to queer pride it's not as encouraged #sometimes it's flat out mocked or ridiculed

My general opinion on Sonadow is that like. Because it's the most popular ship in the fandom most casual enjoyers just gravitate towards it and produce content of it which doesn't exactly match the characters or their actual dynamic, which is totally fair but as a canon enjoyer means I just don't enjoy like 99% of the fan content. And the stuff that I do enjoy definitely doesn't fall within the bounds of a healthy, traditional romantic relationship. However I will say that because there's so much art of it there's some legitimately gorgeous/hilarious art even if the characterization in it isn't totally accurate to canon

OH JUST SAW THIS SORRY IM LIKE A WEEK LATE TO THIS ASK. (context)

anyway yeah i completely agree! personally it can get a little frustrating to see so much of it everywhere, as i do really love sonic and shadow’s dynamic, but dislike the most popular interpretation

and yeah the stuff that i do end up liking definitely doesn’t fall into the ‘stable and normal’ category. like personally i just don’t like romance much in the first place, and i still don’t like any romance with these characters whatsoever, conceptually, but there is some stuff out there that does some really interesting things and tells compelling stories even if i don’t agree with the premise of romance.

overall far more than the concept of the ship itself i personally just actively dislike 99% of the fanwork, cause it’s not catered to my tastes. finding good sonic & shadow characterization can already be like finding a needle in a haystack, and finding good characterization that also isn’t romantic (or at least doesn’t end in a romantic relationship) and tells a story i find interesting is like finding a tuft of cotton candy in an asbestos insulated wall

but fr there’s some really truly amazing and hilarious art and writing out even if i’m not the right audience for it!

#(in post i realize these tags are vague but i am talking about sonic and shadow #)#i wish it was normal and encouraged to write stories about characters dating for a week and then breaking up #like while there’s definitely stuff that isn’t soft and sweet #i just don’t see stories where the endgame is anything other than a romantic relationship (if unorthodox)#like maybe i just don’t look in the right places but like where are my stories where they break up #where are my stories where they agree not to talk to each other on tuesdays #where are my stories where they never actually dated but still refer to each other as exes #i just think those are infinitely more fascinating than the. asbestos.#there’s some qpr stuff out there that’s really neat and i wanna see more of that #like even if those stories get told there’s no guarantee they’ll be told well #and since there’s so few people telling them there are so incredibly few stories that i can find AND like #compared to the asbestos #and by god i can’t and don’t enjoy writing so i as much as i wanna see them i can’t write them myself #god i’m always more articulate in the tags than the main post lol #rambles #asks #thank you for the ask btw!! i don’t get a ton so i don’t check my inbox often; hence why i missed this until now

Scarlet haze

That bastard got her good with a surprisingly lowly aimed slash-oh whom she was trying to fool when she saw it coming before the his opponent even decided to go through with the motion. He was dead the second after his blade tore into her flesh, a quite short lived victory, maybe he couldn't even comprehend the depth of the sizeable cut judging by the frozen surprise in his eyes. The alley littered with corpses, all the usual, the same now almost painfully predictable outcome of every scuffle. Not even worth calling it a swordfight. Couldn't remember her last proper one.

That's why the Captain allowed this time to be different. She was living her life cutthroat, a wild brutal pace without the slightest letting up; it would mean death. The only problem that it wasn't her life she would be gambling with. Until now, when she decided to...indulge by simply not arching out of harm's way as she always did with the grace of a wild cat.

It has been so long since she was actually wounded by a sword. The sensation of steel slicing through flesh and muscle set her nerves ablaze; a reminder. She wasn't immortal. She wasn't indeed the reincarnation of the Devil itself but human. ... For the most part. The searing pain dulled to a borderline pleasant throb, constantly fluttering to her heartbeat which was oddly calm despite the circumstances. Rozália slid down to the ground, watching with odd fascination as rich crimson continued to pour of her, slithering into small cracks, soaking the ground with her very essence. Mesmerized how her life even when leaving her sought out the ones she had ended, almost mockingly overlapping, overtaking their own cooled blood and eventually reaching their faces, their wounds as a taunt. This is only happening because I allowed it.

Her head not fully swimming yet, only an enjoyable buzz. Numbness where she wasn't haunted by the past, torn apart by the feeling of duty. It was worse than a passion for opium because she was addicted to death. The calm of an ending storm, no longer bearing weight the world has thrown onto her. The promise of peace hanging in the air, within arms reach all she had to is to simply rest. However, she was picky with the method, just like how one would search endlessly for the perfect stall in a shady corner. Although this attempt was rather desperate, but in her defense she was already beyond overwhelmed. She needed it. Needed the few minutes of peaceful limbo between worlds before reality found her.

Ah it always did. That damned instinct of survival, the fire, the bright blaze within which simply couldn't be extinguished no matter what happened. No matter how battered, wrecked, ruined, broken she was in mind, body and soul. Still...a few more sluggish seconds wouldn't hurt. Too much.

Her crew, her family was frantically searching for her, their desperate voices laced with genuine fear for her wellbeing sparked the wildfire into life, throwing her out of the pleasant hum into a headsplintering thunder.

This was her longest so far, judging how her legs shook under her weight. Of course she stood. She always did. Lips pale, emerald fire gaze half lidded. They didn't question it. Any part of it; no hows, whys neither a very expected what she was even doing in the first place. They always wore the same solemn expressions, exchanged a wordless story which Rozália was always too hazy to actually address and pry after all those years of sailing together. They knew something she didn't, that's for sure. She didn't bother with lies, excuses, none of them would be even believable. She was probably the most talented swordsman of this era, possessing almost otherworldly speed, precision, experience, acrobatics, versatility and close to impeccable prediction. Even if she was surprised, she could've easily minimized the damage, not to mention the lack of reason to simply sit and bleed out.

Rozália wasn't openly honest either. She didn't need to be and didn't have the faintest idea how to confront them about this forbidden desire. The soft madness of feeling life slowly but surely drain from her. The comfortable days of recovery on the edge of delirium. And after it has been a while...the gnawing urge growing for it again. How to explain such thing that seemed to go against her very core, yet slotted into it so nicely like a missing piece.

#🩸 stories 🗡 | tales from a scorched wartorn country where only blood extinguish the embers #.... I have no excuse why I went radio silent for a week only to drop this #🩸alright/encouraged to like and reblog 🗡 | you only make it out alive to tell the tale #how to even trigger tag this?

#gotta say #as somebody who’s been a norse-flavored polytheist/animist for a while #the writers for the new gow game really did their research #it’s clear they took a scholarly interest in the archaeology + source material and portrayed it with love and respect #how is it that a game about most of the gods being villains is more accurate and respectful (imo) than media where the gods are the heroes #instead of projecting the story they wanted to tell onto the gods #they took a new interpretation of the lore and extrapolated from there #it truly is fantastic and I am so deeply impressed and touched and surprised!#anyway i am in love with it and i am so glad it is a thing #ALSO great and sensitive portrayal of abuse and trauma and the aftereffects of each and the systems that encourage it #im so glad i waited til after my finals to watch a playthrough because uhhh #i am *obsessing*#they went all in! even the way that odin’s character design implies he’s not originally from the norse pantheon #there’s so much to say about this and i could go on for an HOUR #no joke #these games are so close to my heart for so many reasons #and they continue to worm their way in further #(also regarding the second tag: when i say norse polytheist for a while i mean like a decade #i don’t know everything there is to know #but i know a good fair amount and i am so grateful that the santa monica team did such a beautiful job here)

Sneasler kids at the day care?

---

'It's fine,' the daycare worker thought, 'They're kids. They're just kids. Sure it's all FIVE of them instead of just the two good ones, but they're still kids. It's not like they're going to set the daycare on fire again, right? They've GOT to have learned their lesson by now.'

It was always a delight and a nightmare to have the Sneasler kids in the daycare, especially when it was all five. Everyone knew Lady Sneasler's position, and they knew her oldest couldn't babysit all the time, so it was understandable why sometimes all of them had to be dropped off instead of just one or two.

Pip (Pipilin), the youngest, was always a favorite. They were known for consistently being the most well-behaved in the toddler section, as well as the sweetest and kindest child most of the daycare workers had ever met. Memmie (Memara), the oldest aside from Ingo, was always a close second, what with being so well-behaved as well. However, she always had problems with speaking up, and she never really meshed well with other kids and usually ended up just reading quietly in a corner by herself.

It was the Middle Sneasler kids that were the problem. Surs (Surxis) was always a bit of an issue, often joining other rowdy kids to cause trouble and trying to cover up any other trouble that other kids tried to cause. He was very often a problem kid, and if it wasn't for his selflessness, he'd be on the special list of naughty kids. And then there were the twins.

Tellie and Anai (Tellid and Anyde). It was their consistent goal to make the top of the list of bad kids without getting banned. Scolding didn't even work on them. In fact, the scolding seemed to encourage them. They wouldn't even stay in Time-Out no matter what lock was put on the gate. Multiple times the two of them managed to either pick the lock or just break it, and then they'd be running around causing havoc again. There was practically no way to stop them aside from picking them up and handing them directly to their mother. Until now.

Lord Labast Braviary himself had finally entered the building. The regular daycare workers had done their best and had given up, finally caving and deciding to call in the owner. He was… a lot less intimidating in person. The newest daycare worker stared at him in confusion, looking him up and down. They knew he was a Noble, but… he just didn't seem 'Noble'.

"(You sure he can handle them?)" they asked their coworker. "(He seems kinda…)"

"(Painfully mundane with serious college student vibes?)" their coworker mumbled back, not quite as quiet as she could've been. "(Yeah, I know. Just trust him. He's worked his magic before, he can do it again.)"

"(Would you two just shut up and get back to work?!)" their supervisor hissed, making the both of them jump and scatter. The supervisor watched Labast for a few moments, then went back to her work.

As predicted, the twins were already causing chaos. Those who dared watch in the corners wondered what Lord Braviary would do. Would he tell them he knows their mother personally and use that to his advantage? Would he try to bribe them? Would he use his status alone to intimidate them? Only those who had worked there longer knew for sure what he'd do, and even then they were on the edges of their metaphorical seats.

He didn't call them over, that was the first surprise. Instead, Labast walked up to the twins himself and loudly cleared his throat to catch their attention. The twins looked up at his glaring face and crossed arms, excitedly awaiting their awaited chewing-out.

"What, bird-brain?" Anai asked, her sibling snickering next to her. There was no response to the insult, not even a slight change in expression. He gestured down to what they were doing, cocking an eyebrow as if to ask for details.

"Makin' a paint bomb," Tellie responded cheerfully, meeting his stare with malicious defiance. "Whatcha gonna do about it? Gonna get mad? Gonna call our mom?"

Labast closed his eyes, taking in a deep breath. The twins got ready for the chewing-out, delighted in their accomplishments. However, instead of an angry lecture about not being a menace or anything like that, he let out a heavy sigh as his expression melted into a sad look.

"No, I'm not going to get angry," he said calmly, his gentle tone shaking the twins to their very core and filling them with dread. He opened his eyes, looking at them in a way that made them wish sincerely he wasn't about to say what they thought he was about to say.

"I'm just disappointed in you two."

The wave of Fatherly Disappointment™ hit the entire room like a Boss Monster attack. Tellie and Anai stopped what they were doing and looked down at their feet in shame, silently begging for him to not continue.

"I expected better from you two," Labast continued, crouching down to their level to talk to them in a low and sad tone. "Your mother loves you very dearly, she brags about you guys all the time. I know you both are wonderful kids. If your mother were here to see this, I'm sure it would break her heart."

The twins trembled as they struggled to hold back tears, Anyde sniffling a little. Labast reached into his back pocket and pulled out a small container of tissues, offering it to them. In this final tipping point gesture, the twins burst into tears, sobbing loudly.

"W-we're sorry!" Tellid sobbed.

"We-we'll be good!" Anyde cried.

The daycare staff stared in partially horrified amazement as Labast kindly helped wipe away tears and snot with tissues, comforting them as they cried and vowed to behave.

The twins behaved almost perfectly for the remainder of the day, cleaning up the messes they'd made with the help of Lord Braviary. He was certainly good at what he did, and everyone knew it.

Regardless, the twins were not the only Sneasler kids in the daycare.

Due to prior issues, Surxis had been separated from his younger twin siblings and moved from the 'little kids' area to the 'big kids' area with his older sister Memara. The layout was as such: Pipilin in the 'really little kids' area, Tellid and Anyde in the 'little kids' area, and Surxis and Memara in the 'big kids' area. Sure, Surs was the youngest and least mature in the area, but only by a little.

Memmie had been reading alone in a corner as per usual. She always behaved herself, so no one usually bothered to watch her or the quiet corner she spent her time in. Noticing this, one of the older boys snuck over to where she was, knowing no one would pay attention to what happened over there.

"Hey bookworm," the boy scoffed, smirking as he stood over Memmie. "What book is that? 'How to be an Ugly Nerd Nobody Likes'?" He wasn't particularly good at insults yet.

"Um… no," Memmie mumbled, trying to hide behind her book in shame. "I-it's, um, a-a book about trains my brother gave me…"

"Looks dumb," the boy said, grabbing her book and yanking it away from her, looking at the pictures with an unimpressed look on his face. "What's this, a Human book? You a Human in disguise? Maybe I should tell the Royal Guard about the secret ugly little Human nerd reading dumb little Human nerd books."

"P-please give that back," Memmie said, her voice a bit louder as she reached for the book. The boy held the book higher out of her reach, smiling maliciously at her.

"Why would I?" he smirked, an evil glint in his eye. "You're an evil ugly Human. In fact, maybe I should just rip it up!"

"Please don't!" Memmie squeaked, getting up and starting to cry. "My brother gave that to me! Please don't damage it!"

"Maybe your brother is secretly a Human too! It would make sense why you both look so weird and ugly!" the boy cackled, bringing his other hand to a page of the book and starting to tug. The smallest tear appeared at the bottom. Memmie cried, too scared of drawing attention to herself to scream.

A flying building block hit the boy directly in the back of the head, doing 3 damage.

"Agh!" he yelled, removing his hand from the page and holding the back of his head. "Who threw that?!" He quickly turned around to look at the room, glaring. Surs stood there, still in the position of having just thrown something.

"PUT DOWN MY SISTER'S BOOK YOU BULLY!!" he screamed, catching everyone's attention. "THAT'S HER PRIVATE PROPERTY!! RIPPING HER BOOK IS DESTRUCTION OF PRIVATE PROPERTY!! MY MOM'S GONNA SUE YOU!! SHE'S GONNA SUE YOU AND YOU'LL HAVE TO LIVE IN A BOX!!!"

"WHAT is going on here?!" a daycare assistant said, running over to the ruckus.

"He threw a block at my head!" the boy yelled, pointing at Surs accusatorily. "She dropped her book and I was just giving it back to her and he threw a block at my head!"

"SLANDER AND LIES!!" Surs screeched, picking up another block to throw at him.

"ENOUGH!" the daycare assistant said, grabbing the block from Surs and glaring. She looked over at Memmie who had clearly been crying, and she lowered her voice. "Memara? Can you tell me who is telling the truth?"

All eyes were on Memmie. Her heart started racing faster, and her throat tightened. She burst into sobs, running over to the daycare assistant and latching onto her apron and sobbing into it.

"H-he called me an u-ugly Human!" she sobbed, her voice muffled by the fabric. "H-he was gon-gonna rip up m-my book!"

"He said what?" the assistant said carefully and angrily, glaring daggers into the kid. "Marcol. Book. Now." She held her hand out, and the boy shuffled over guiltily and handed it over.

The daycare assistant handed the book back to Memmie, who then opened it up and showed the little tear the boy had made in the page. This was very impressive for her. Normally she wouldn't even dare telling on someone, much less show the evidence of it.

"Marcol!" the daycare assistant gasped, furious. "We are going to call your mother right now and you are going to tell her EXACTLY what you did to Memmie's book."

She looked over at Surs, her glare still incidental on her face. "And Surxis?" she said, her voice still firm.

"What?" Surs said, ready to get punished for throwing things again.

"… Next time, tell one of the daycare assistants before you throw something," she said, her voice softening a bit. "Other than that, it was very kind of you to help your sister. I'll remember to mention that to your mother next time I see her." She then let Memmie go and grabbed onto the boy's arm, leading him to the office to call his mother.

The positive affirmation shook Surxis. It was amazing. Once he had gotten over the most of the shock, he ran over to his older sister to comfort her.

"I promise I'll protect you Memmie," he said, using his shirt sleeve to help wipe away her tears. "Nobody will pick on you while I'm here. I'll punch em' in the face if I gotta."

"Th-thank you Surs," Memmie choked, sniffling as she hugged her book tightly. "You're the best."

In the 'really little kids' area, everything was business as usual. Babies were consoled, toddlers were giggling or crying, and Pipilin was having the time of their life stacking blocks in one tall tower.

A four-legged monster toddler came over to their tower and knocked it down, giggling all the while.

"No no, makkit beeeeg!" Pip said, stretching their arms up high. "Then makkit go pwshhhhh!" They swung their arms down and to the side so fast they fell over onto their side. Instead of crying like most other toddlers, this just made them giggle.

"Beeeeeeeeeeeg!" the other kid squeaked, giggling and pushing over some of the fallen blocks to build it up again.

"Yah!" Pip squeaked excitedly, sitting up again and grabbing blocks in their tiny little hands and building the tower again. "Mommy sez gotta make th' bottom big so ih' dun' fall over!"

"Hehehe, bottom is butt," the other toddler giggled before picking up a piece with their mouth and putting it halfhazardly on the pile. "Block butt!"

"Block butt!" Pip giggled.

Their entire time was spent building up a tower as high as they could and knocking it down repeatedly. They make five whole friends that day.

"please update" what if i said no ._.

#really i don't get that bothered by please update comments #but i dont think these commenters actually understand how much of a nothing sentiment it is #like. im telling myself this every day bud #if you're trying to encourage an update out of me this does absolutely nothing #where was that post about how 'pls update' doesn't make you think about your story #whereas a comment about the reader's actual reaction to the contents of the story gets the creative juices pumping #like comments are absolutely a way to encourage updates into existence #but there's a strategy to it my dude #you are wasting words and liking putting bad tastes in author's mouths with 'pls update' comments #literally just a short 'loved this' would probably get you closer to the update you want #also i think the idea of responding 'no' to these comments is super fuckin funny #say no and ghost the story for a year #if i had the guts to scare someone like that #likely i'll just respond no a day before i post an update #couldn't habdle actually making someone think they're the reason a story they liked and were trying to support stopped updating #i know these comments mean well #even if they're a bit oblivious #anyway #pewsonal uwu #tumblr hates that tag and refuses to autofill it for me despite it being a frequent tag i use #furry discrimination :/

It's been really interesting getting into the process of making, writing, and studying the structure of books as I'm in the middle of writing a very long fanfiction. It's like yes my writing has improved, but I'm able to point out critiques I wouldn't have even considered back when I was writing early on or even as early as a year ago. Like the masterminds in tbos never got physical descriptions because I was just like "here's their refs" in the notes but I'm going to have to adjust that if I do an audio reading for example. Or descriptions of places that seriously would have benefitted from a description two dozen chapters ago instead of now. Just things like that. I'm rambling while waiting for breakfast to cook

#getting book autism has been really fascinating. you get to view the medium in a new technical light #being able to tell the differences between the medium of novels and of audiobooks and how they can make or break a story is also really cool #as well as the difference between books and fanfiction and how both mediums have their ups and downs #idk man writing is a form of art to me so being able to critique my own in hindsight with New Knowledge is really cool to me #sure it can be discouraging its like when ur technical prowess supercedes your physical ability when drawing #but?? idk. its cool! i encourage people to read more books if youre a writer #i want to write books as a living someday and getting back into reading was ESSENTIAL for structure and cohesion #fanfic is reallt fun but you cant rely on it for reference if you want to write a novel. and thats okay!#you just have even more things to read now! :>#it can be hard finsing a book that fits for you and that can also be discouraging. i just got out of a like 3 month reading slump bc i-#-wasnt finding anything #oh man i cant shut up now #tldr talk to me about books. i love books #my partner hyperfixatrd on the publishing industry last yrar and i sort of osmosis'd and created my own brand of autism through it #its pretty great #okay wow these sre a lot of tags. im gonna go cook my eggs now

cw: child abuse (psychological, grooming, ect)

also speaking of parental abuse there's also this text of how Millie wants to be Tyra's mother, but she doesn't want anything that makes Tyra unique.

She started loving Tyra the moment she saw her find some dinosaure when she was dying in the cold and starved after being separated from her parents, seeing that despite her situation, Tyra was so excited about finding a Tyranosaure she was forgetting how desperate her situation was and instead loved the dino right away.

Millie saw how excited Tyra was about it, and loved Tyra right away enough to decide to make her hers.

But Millie hates dinosaurs, she finds them disgusting, she uses them as tool and keeps insulting them, hates that Tyra sees them as her family.

she used the dinos as bait to get Tyra to pay attention to her, and she used a particularities of the dino to mind control Tyra

but even now as Tyra is being brainwashed, everytime she looks at the dinos, Millie just tells her "don't look at those disgusting things, just look at me, your momma"

and it's another level of control that rings way too true on parents who """"""love""""" their children, but not for who they are -- just for what it brings them.

yes Tyra is cute. But everything she likes, everything that makes her happy, is disgusting. So it needs to be removed from Tyra's life. Her love and her excitement has to carry over to Millie, not to the stuff she actually like.

it's something way too real and it's genuinely giving me the yikes it makes me unwell.

#ichablogging gbf #ichablogging tyraevent #sorry massive tmi in the tags #sorry it struck a cord bc it's something that's been on my mind for days with my own mom and i'm just. god.#my sis has a new boyfriend who happens to have 3 children - including two very cute twin girls who are adorable #i meet them for the holidays and we hit off right away. they're very cute and hyperactive and everything #and i kept encouraging them in that so they really imprinted on me hard that i legit couldn't get away from their cuddles aha #point is though that i was talking about it with my mom afterward #and she was all 'you know they remind me so much of you when you were a child. thats why i found it so shocking when you closed yourself in #and it hits me hard in the. who's. who's fault do you think it is.#because i saw how all of the adults around us were rolling their eyes at the girls #i saw how all of them were telling them to calm down or telling them straight up they were annoying and exhausting #i saw how when i tried to tell a cute story from my dad's home to the girls (about saving a hedgehog once)#my mom tried to derail the topic on how she's been done horribly dirty by my father -- directly to the girls #like. mom. they're 7. why the fuck are you cutting me when i tell them something they're interested about to tell them such a heavy thing.#and with xmas obligation and the fact i'm forced to be here but i'm mostly ignored most of the time and cut off #(s/o to the family member who said they didn't want to hear anything from me because i was 'neither interesting nor smart' a while ago)#also it reminds me of how my mom loves to brag about how passionate i am but always cut me off & belittle me bc she hates what i care about #it keeps reminding me of that. saying they love you but they don't care about anything about you. it's about what you bring them.#it hits fucking hard the timing is too tight i legit had a family thing yesterday which was the reason i could only read this event today #Granblue why would you do this to me

I'm begging y'all, put at least minimum care into how you present your fics to the public.

"idk man you name it im tired" as a title tells me you didn't care.

"This is STUPID" in the tags. Okay, I won't read it then.

"I don't know how to do tags" tells me you didn't bother taking one look at any page in the archive to see how others tag and use it as reference. Or, you know, you could have asked, too.

"idk if this is trash, bc I worte this in the middle of the night bc idrk" in the summary doesn't really encourage me to open the story.

3 lines of tags on a 4k monitor, none of which are actual searchable tags but a stream of consciousness about the author's sleeping habits and music preferences, tell me you don't know what your story is about if you can't give us 2-4 main tropes and themes. Also, this isn't tumblr, come on mate.

"I hate myself for this fic" okay? Why did you write it then if it brought you discomfort? Moreover, why did you post it???

"Why Did I Write This?" well, hobbies are about joy and fun, if writing doesn't make you happy then maybe it's time to look for something else to do in your free time? No point in making yourself miserable.

"The Author Regrets Everything" paired with more self-deprecating tags suggest I better not bother opening the fic because it clearly made the author miserable and why would I be miserable as well?

"killing myself rn" please get help.

0 additional tags is better than that. Writing and sharing fics should be an act of care, not anguish.

#fandom #fanfiction #I'm tired man #make hobbies fun again #“oooh but it's all just jokes” you say #that doesn't change the point #at all

it was you all along. (bokuto koutaro x reader)

summary: you confess to him, and he’s confused because he thinks you’re already dating. for my valentine’s day event - theme: confessions.

word count: 1285

event masterlist

Careful hands tried to handle the cupcake as delicately as possible. You held your breath, lowering it into the box. When its base hit the cardboard, you finally sighed out in relief. You pulled back to admire your creation, feeling a smile creep up on your face at the sight of the four cupcakes, all decorated to the nines.

No doubt in your head that Bokuto would love this. After all, you knew his every like and dislike very well. You had known him forever.

Bokuto Kotarou had taken you under his ‘wing’ when you were in elementary school. Tiny-you had no confidence and zero capability to make friends, while Bokuto was your exact opposite. He had taken a liking to you and had bravely proclaimed that he would ‘protect’ you, puffing out his tiny chest and grinning wide. Over the years, Bokuto had not let you down even once.

It was no wonder that you slowly fell in love with him. How could you not? You spent every day joined at the hip. The only time you were apart was when he was on the court, and even then you were on the sidelines, clipboard in hand, managing the team while admiring how talented your friend was. So really, how could you not fall in love?

In your defense, Bokuto doted on you like crazy. He knew very little physical boundaries when it came to you, hugging and squeezing the life out of you, laying sloppy kisses on your cheeks, sharing food and stories and…. basically each other’s entire lives.

But today. Today was the day. Today you would tell him that you no longer wanted to be friends. That you wanted more. Your heartbeat sped up at the thought of how he might react. You weren’t an arrogant person by any means but you couldn’t imagine him reacting negatively. There’s no way Bokuto could be as affectionate as he was if he didn’t feel something for you. Hell, how many times had he told you he loved you? Every day. You had lost count.

You were careful with the box as you walked to school. Your very limbs were vibrating, and you were breathing deeply in and out to make sure you remained calm. You were optimistic in taking this step. In fact, all your mutual friends, including the team, had only encouraged you. They were all dead sure he would accept your confession and return your feelings just as enthusiastically. You were more excited than you were nervous. You couldn’t wait to see him.

You found Bokuto with his head buried in his locker, and you had to hold back a snort. He was muttering something under his breath, and you were sure he had lost something else now. His locker was a mess, and you had repeatedly scolded him to clean it up or else he would lose things. Once again, you were right.

You tapped his shoulder, biting back a laugh when he jolted and banged his head against the roof. Curses flew from his mouth before he ducked and pulled his head out, turning to look at you with a glare. You watched fondly when his scowl was replaced by the widest, brightest smile you had ever seen. Bokuto’s smile could give the Sun a run for its money.

He exclaimed your name loudly, opening his arms wide to pull you into a bear hug. You immediately held a hand out to push his chest back.

“Hold it!” You lifted up the box. “I’m holding something delicate.”

Bokuto’s interest was immediately piqued, and you giggled at his childish curiosity, grabbing his wrist and tugging him with you. He hastily slammed his locker shut and let you drag him down the crowded halls and outside, finding an empty bench overlooking the school track.

“What’s going on?” He finally asked, wide golden eyes peering into your own. You sat down and patted the seat beside you for Bokuto to do the same. He obliged, waiting for you to speak. Instead, you handed him the box.

Bokuto opened it up and gasped at the selection of four intricately decorated cupcakes, admiring each one separately. You felt your heart swell at his reactions.

“Holy shit,” he whispered. “This one looks like a volleyball. And this one has my jersey number!”

Bokuto looked back up at you with stars in his eyes. “I can’t believe it. This is so awesome!”

You grinned wide, fiddling with your hands a bit. “I made them for a special occasion.”

Bokuto perked up again. “What special occasion?”

You took a deep breath. Finally, the time was here. “I love you, Kou.”

Bokuto blinked before a wide smile overtook his face. “I love ya too, babe.”

You stared at him for a bit. “No. I mean, I love you. I’m in love with you.”

Now, a small, confused frown formed between the boy’s eyebrows. “I heard you. I love you, too. What’s going on? You’re bein’ weird.”

You gaped at Bokuto, unable to even fathom what he was getting from this. Were you not being clear enough? Was he not understanding what you meant?

“Kotarou, I don’t want to be just friends. This isn’t a ‘friends’ kind of love. I wanna date you. I wanna be your girlfriend.”

Now Bokuto looked flabbergasted, slowly closing the box and placing it to the side. “What are you talking about? You are my girlfriend!”

Silence. “What?”

Bokuto nodded, though he still looked at you like you had grown two heads. “Y-yeah?”

“Kou-” You held up a hand as if calling a timeout, trying, but failing, to understand what he meant. You had anticipated requited feelings. Some part of you had even considered the possibility of rejection. But this? How was this even possible?

Bokuto looked like he was processing things too. He quirked his head to the side, staring quizzically at you. One of his hands ran through his hair, almost in thought. You felt a horrific laugh bubble up inside you at how ridiculous the situation was. This…. this was so on brand for Bokuto. Your confession going awry because this idiot thought you were already dating.

“But what about all the time we’re together? I always hug you and kiss you. We have sleepovers all the time. I sleep in your damn bed!”

“Well yes, but-” You shifted. “We did that as friends!”

Bokuto gave you a look. “You think I act that way with my other friends?”

“I thought I was special.” You mumbled, suddenly rethinking almost every interaction you had with Bokuto.

“You are.” His voice softened. “Because you’re my girlfriend.”

You felt your face burn hot. “But you never-”

He waited for you to continue. You fidgeted.

“We never kissed.”

Now, a shiteating grin was slowly spreading across Bokuto’s face. He wiggled his crazy eyebrows at you. “You wanna?”

You smacked his bicep hard, making him yelp and rub the sore spot with a little pout. Inside your chest, your heart was doing endless flip flops. You still couldn’t believe that all this time, Bokuto had assumed you were dating and not just friends. The very thought of it was both completely expected and also insanely shocking at the same time.

Bokuto was watching you closely, having calmed down a bit. He gave you a little smile.

“Since ya didn’t consider any of our dates as…. dates, can I take you out on a proper one now?”

A smile spread across your face at his words. You nodded jerkily, staring down at your hands. Bokuto clapped his hands in finality.

“Great! Now, I need to eat these cupcakes and talk about how great they are.”

You laughed.
