Talking about the ColorGang! because thinking about them makes me happy;3333

aaand because I have no ideas what to do lol (+ I want to do a lil' bit of character study! Even though I'm kind of bad at analyzing things.. xD)

This will also contain some headcanons that I have for them btw! ;3

- ,, // Next Part ! \\ ,, -

1. Forgiving

They are all so forgiving it's insane.

Like- I get it. Both Purple and King had a tough childhood/was still in terrible grief which made them do the things that they do, but that doesn't justify their actions????

They are legit really forgiving towards someone who abandoned two(2) of them to die and betrayed them twice + towards someone who almost destroyed an entire dimension and almost got them all erased from existence...

(I have no hatred towards Purple or King, btw!! I love them;33 /gen i just don't really agree with their past actions ofc)

This whole "forgiving" thing makes me think that they would probably forgive The Dark Lord, too... (After some very well-deserved apologies, of course loll and if he's still alive- uh)

Actually, though; I have some doubts about that, but who knows.

Honestly, I think them being really forgiving kinda makes sense to their characters... In a way.

I mean- RYGB were all created for the sole purpose to fight. They are the 'fighting stickfigures', which means that they probably have no other choice but to forgive and move on.

What's the point of holding a grudge, after all? They are just gonna punch and kick each other repeatedly without pauses nor breaks anyway.

I think it's just.. A habit, or part of their codes, or they just feel like they don't really have a choice. (Old habits are hard to break)

Orange probably just goes along with them… Or, perhaps, his truce with Alan has made him more open to forgiving? Purple betrayed them twice and King almost destroyed an entire dimension, but I don't think any of that compares to the pain of having his friends deleted (literally killed) without any mercy nor remorse shown.

Perhaps it was the influence of his friends' forgiving nature, or it was just the truce he had made with Alan that made him more open to forgive and move on.

They are all so quick to forgive and move on.. It's a nice character trait but also pretty much a flaw.

Being able to forgive and move on it's great, but when you are so easily forgiving...

Good thing King and Purple actually genuinely changed for the better- (｡･∀･)ﾉﾞ

2. Bond!

Their bond is literally my favorite comfort thing in the whole world... ❤

Like- They are so close. So comfortable with each other. So huggy and clingy and happy and loving and caring and silly and so. sticking. casual-

They are literally the very epitome of Found Family.

And, even if I do ship PolySticks a whole bunch, I prefer much more their Found Family bond, to be honest. ❤ They give me so many siblings vibes aaa They are such a family, honestlyy.

Orange has known them since it's creation. RYGB have known each other since their creation. And, even then, they are all still together and as close as before even after so long. (And, I must say; they keep getting closer and closer as time goes by.)

They are all like a small lil' family; A family that, even after many fights, would never hold a grudge towards each other for too long.

They are like siblings who fight and compete and may be angry at each other at certain times, but who will still do anything to protect the other because they love and care and are a family.

I also like to think that the whole Animation vs Minecraft series is really what really brought them all together to have a really close and loving bond. It's already quite noticeable that, with each passing AvM season, their bond becomes stronger and they become even closer and protective than before.

If we compare their friendship in previous seasons vs now, you can see that their friendship has developed and each of them has grown a lot since then. (so proud of them aaaa)

Their bond is just.. ❤❤❤

3. Each Different Bond!

Can we just talk for a moment about how adorable Yellow and Blue's friendship is?? They are literally so- aAAaaaAA

I fully understand why a big part of the fandom ships them, to be honest... They are so close and affectionate and literally understands each other the most. They are very often always seen together, either just doing their own lil' things, enjoying each other's presence, or going through adventures together. ❤

The thing that makes me happy the most is; Their bond is not meant to be necessarily taken as romantic. It can very well vary of each person's own perspective of their relationship and I absolutely love that.

You view them as siblings? Awesome! Their relationship could very well be from very close siblings; maybe even twins! (Gotta love some healthy sibling relationship rep. too fr fr)

You view them as romantic? Incredible! They are so loving and affectionate, that if they were dating they would be the cutest couple in the world. /vpos

You view them as best friends? Amazing! Having a best friend is like finding a long-lost part of yourself; Kinda like a sibling, maybe even a twin. The relationship of best friends is really something very special. Their relationship genuinely gives me the vibes of 2 best friends, to be honest. (Especially since my friendship with my bffs is pretty similar to those 2's relationship. ;3)

Should I also say that these two are the ones who bring the group the most comfort?? Yellow is always the one who comforts Blue, and Blue is also seen comforting others as well. (Green!!)

They are both like the parents of the group, always being there for their friends and being a shoulder to lean on.

They are so comforting and literally the cutest duo ever... I love them sm❤

Oh! And I cannot forget about Green & Orange's friendship, too!!

They are canonly confirmed to be the closest out of their group of friends, and words literally cannot tell you how happy I was once I heard about this information. xD

They vibe with each other so well; Honestly speaking, Green can vibe with literally anyone so well. lol

They are both pretty chill, and very passionate about their favorite things; (Art! Music!) They are so equally competitive, too.

Their friendship is so cute and casual. <33 They are not as affectionate with each other as much as Yellow and Blue are, but that doesn't make their friendship any less healthy or adorable.

Their friendship is, to be honest… pretty lighthearted to the soul, honestly. I love when they're both on screen doing things together, because their friendship is so…

I don't know. There are no words to properly describe how I feel about their friendship. xD

But their bond probably has to be my second favorite (Yellow&Blue being my first!) They vibe so well together, their personalities mesh so well, and they're just so casual and relaxed and so passionate-

Both are artists, it's worth remembering! Of course, they are not the same types of artists; One is an artist while the other is a musician, but it's still something in common.

And with that in mind… I like to think that when Green isn't disturbing Orange with his loud music at three(3) in the morning and/or Orange working with Alan, I like to think that they both help each other with their passions.

(Orange canonically knows how to play guitar, and Green is quite meticulous, so that's a bonus! Orange helping Green write a song and/or Green helping Orange with the art block by giving him ideas for sets, details, etc.... ❤)

Their friendship is so cute and lighthearted aaa i love them ❤❤❤

Red and Reuben... Just. Adorable. ヾ(≧▽≦*)o

Honestly, Red's friendship with all of his animals is adorable; It's like she's a big sibling to them, in a way.

There's not much to say about these two's friendship, unfortunately… Since Reuben doesn't appear as much as he used to. :'v

But their bond in previous seasons was just so heartwarming. <3

1. Trust Issues

A random thing that I thought of while listening to Bad Feeling (Oompa Loompa) - Jagwar Twin, but..

What if, after that whole AvA4 fiasco, RYGB decided not to trust Orange, Alan, or even the outside of their website because they were afraid of being deleted again.

Like- Think about this; They just met Orange; From the way they acted at first, they had certainly never left their website before (or, at least, had never entered computer territory before).

And right after they left their website - probably the only place they knew and were familiar with…

They were immediately deleted. Ended Process. Dead.

And with that… I think that's reason enough for them to be at least a little skeptical about Orange, right? (About Orange and especially Alan.)

After all.. Orange is the one who introduced them to the outside. Orange is the one who brought them out. Granted, Orange obviously didn't intend to get them deleted, but it's not like they knew that. It's not like the fact that they were killed for some reason could suddenly be forgotten just because they were revived.

And, with that thought in mind… I like to think that Green was the first to forgive and give Orange a second (heheh) chance, since they both hugged before he was deleted, and they both canonically have the closest bond. (Maybe that's why they are the closest? Because Green was the first one to see Orange's side and give them a second chance, which later led for them to have a very close bond.)

And also because Green is definitely the one most inclined to give people(sticks) a second chance, hear their side of the story and be the first to forgive them. (GrapeDuo moment!! xd)

They slowly, but carefully and certainly. started trusting Orange and leaving their website more (Until it got to the point where they literally live on their PC now, instead of their website. Probably because of flash ending in 2020-)

That's such a headcanon I will forever embrace. It's character development right there and I love it.

2. Genders & Pronouns!

Hmm! Not really that important, but I like to headcanon them with some genders & pronouns... It's just- really fun and makes them a lil' more relatable, I think..? xD

So!

! . Orange Agender ; (He/They/It)

! . Blue BiGender (It/They/She/He)

! . Red Juxera (She/Them/He)

! . Green TransMale (He/Him)

! . Yellow ApaGender (He/It)

3. PolySticks

Is it just me or shipping PolySticks just hits different than shipping other ships...?

Like. They are all so canonly affectionate and loving and caring towards each other that it's just so- casual. Inconsequential. The love is there.. It's there and it's not a big deal.

Shipping PolySticks just hits different because there is no things being changed nor removed, they all love each other and shipping them would just make that type of love different, but the love is still there and it's inconsequential and it just. hits so much different.

They are just a small group of friends who is really casually affectionate and loving towards each other, shipping them feels like it didn't change anything, it's just that it's all romantic now. Shipping them hits different, but It didn't make anything different at the same time.

They are just a small group of friends who definitely kiss each other's foreheads and cheeks and proceeds to act casual about it because they've always been like that and there is nothing wrong with it. It's casual, it's inconsequential, it's love.

Other ships hits different because there is development there, slowburn, falling in love; PolySticks hits different because the only thing that actually changes it's the type of love.

They all already have developed, they already have a very close relationship, they already are honest, have mutual respect and care and trust. Communication is slowly being built, but it is there. Their relationship is already pretty developed, shipping PolySticks just means that the type of love they have towards each other it's romantic.

The love they feel for each other canonically neither diminished nor increased when switching to a romantic one. They continue to love each other as they always have, the only difference is that it is a different type of love, but other than that, nothing else has changed.

The love is still there, as inconsequential and casual as it always was. PolySticks' relationship isn't any different from canon, it's just a different type of love now. ❤

I talked way too much about my feelings about this ship and now I felt like most of you probably won't understand my rambling.. My bad- (っ °Д °;)っ My feelings are quite difficult to understand even for me. lol

4. Unusual Bonds

Unusual as in like. We wasn't shown much about certain interactions on-screen, you know..? So we aren't much sure how exactly certain duos are like when only the two of them.

And it's- Kinda frustrating- lol (/opinion)

Orange has so much admiration for Yellow aaa and Yellow seems to respect him a lot and when they are both together- it's like they are just enjoying each other's presence and I find that so satisfying and touching and aaaaAAaaa /vpos (they seems to be very close, too!! Not as close as Green&Orange, or Blue&Yellow, but still close! ;3)

Red and Green give me so many sibling vibes- dwklswakljdswa They are both often seen together and they just get along so well and are so cheery and bubbly and determined and- sssighsssssssss /vpos (Their bond is so lighthearted aaa they are just teens being teens arghds /pos)

The whole arc with Blue and Green was sooo- aaAAAAAAaaA(/vpos) They don't have much in common but they still?? Can get along so well?? They are so different from each other and they just. embrace these differences and are able to have mutual respect and affection for each other and I just- ❤ (Never forgetting when they hugged as they were literally ready to die together aND aAAAAA/vpos)

Yellow has a certain rivalry with Green but still cares deeply for him and Green cares deeply about Yellow too aaaa- Unfortunately, we weren't shown much of their interactions together, which is sad. :'v Their bond remains adorable, though. xdd

When I said that Green could vibe with just about anyone, I wasn't lying. lol (They are so different but they still care deeply about each other aaa/vpos)

Man.. How I wish Orange&Blue's bond was more focused.. The latter's abilities always manage to surprise Orange and I think it's so cute- aaaldawsdlçadsw (Orange dreaming so much about Blue being so helpful and proactive tells us a lot about Orange's perspective on Blue. <;3)

They both may not be the closest of the group, but they still care deeply for each other and still manage to have fun together!1 yayyayy /vpos (I feel like this season will focus a little more on their bond and I love it yayyyay (*^▽^*))

In the very few.. Very few for sure.. Rare even… Interactions between Red&Yellow and Red&Blue… Both interactions are adorable, although we haven't seen much of them. ＞︿＜

Red and Blue are very similar when it comes to their love of nature; Blue has a love for the nature world, while Red has a love for animals. I feel like this could be explored more which could strengthen their friendship. ;o (They both also give me vibes of being the youngest ones in the group, so that's a bonus. xd)

They're both also the most emotional of the group… Man, they have so much in common, now that I think about it. xD

Their personalities are so different, but they still manage to have some things in common, which I find pretty nice. ;3

Red and Yellow are practically opposites; One is reckless, the other is rational. But they still manage to care deeply for each other even though they don't have many interactions… Which makes me really curious as to what their bond really is like. (Texture Pack showed that they can still have equally fun together despite their differences, so I'm quite curious to see more about their bonding! (o゜▽゜)o☆)

Red and Orange… The best for last of course (/lh) ♪(´▽｀)

Their bond… It's a complicated thing. Or, at least, it was a complicated thing; Orange loved all his friends, that's for sure, but if we compare his bond with the others vs his bond with Red… I feel like he had a certain… I don't know. Bitterness? Towards Red.

Red is the one who inspired and motivated him to really want to fight with them, to really break the wall of their website and join their little group.

And yet.. Red is the one Orange gets along with the least compared to the others.

This is why Lush Caves was so needed; That's why the fight between them felt so much deeper and different than the others. They were letting it all out, all the emotions, all the bitterness.. Everything was finally being taken out in this fight.

The development of their friendship is so beautiful and precise. If we were to compare their friendship Pre-Lush Caves vs Post-Lush Caves, you can see how much their friendship has evolved. How much their bond has been strengthened and how much they seem to understand each other a little more. (While their characters have changed considerably since that episode too!)

The lack of communication between Orange and Red was exactly what led them to Lush Caves… And Lush Caves is exactly what led them to have a better communication and an even stronger bond.

I love every single bond of this group.. But SecRed is probably one of my favorite friendship (and character) developments, honestly. ❤

There were originally another (draft) post like this.. One that it's pretty old, indeed (probably made in either pre-2024 or the start of the 2024.. I don't remember. welp) But certain things happened so I just ended up deleting it. lol (I copypasta'd everything, though!)

(And I just recently noticed that tumblr removed the color Yellow... welppp- Time to use this site then!1! xD)

And, yet; My opinion about these dorks stays the same. ;3 (Made some changes during all of these, though! (～￣▽￣)～)

Also!! Sorry for being kinda inactive these past few days. I have been trying to work on other projects, and I didn't really felt like drawing at the moment. lol

Cya!!

lil' edits; made some changes, corrected some things.. lol

Answering asks #4

I have been... procrastinating over answering asks in my inbox... just a bit 🥺

I'm really grateful for everyone's patience so I'm finally sitting down to answer all the asks I got! Again tysm ;w;

• Finny art request + Timelapse and brief overview of my art process

My deepest apologies anon! Not only did you send this ask back in July, but I additionally promised you a reply back in August- and it's October now! 😭 I am so sorry for my lateness and am so grateful for your patience!

In any case, you asked for a Finny drawing so I offer a Finny drawing! As well as a timelapse of my art process and brief overview of how I do things since you were interested!!!

I wasn't sure what style you wanted me to draw him in (I have so many styles RIP) so I picked the most difficult one I (sometimes) use! Aka my painterly style!

As for how I draw like this uhh, it's a lot of messing around trying to find the right colors basically!

Also focusing on quick brush strokes that communicate the shape of whatever surface I'm rendering!

I also love casting most of the upper part of the face in shadows. Does it make sense? No. Does it look good? Yes!!

As for my lineart, again- rly depends on the style I'm going for- but I tend to use a more sketchy style of lineart these days.

Like a superrr clean sketch. I think it looks nicer with my rendering style, bc the lines have that sketchy rough quality so it's easier to hide the imperfections bc I can hide under the "well it's supposed to look rough duhh" excuse LOL. Work smart not hard! I always say that.

I hope I'm making sense with my rambles. I've never been the best at explaining my art process bc I myself don't rly get what I'm doing usually. It just kinda comes as a reflex almost?? I've been drawing for so long I just kinda go with the flow at this point.

Anyhow hope it was worth the wait XD enjoy your Finny!!!

• Kuroshitsuji Musical idea suggestions

To refresh everyone's memory (bc I'm so late at answering asks), awhile back @shadowalkingschemer asked if I ever planned to make a Kuroshitsuji musical parody type songs/animations like I did for Umineko, to which I said "probs no bc an actual official Kuroshitsuji musical exists, but it sounds like a rly fun idea tho". ANYHOW- this was the followup ask I got from the same person! So let me finally answer!!!

Oki so I looked up this Beethoven's Last Night thing you mentioned and???? OMG??? It goes hard from the first few minutes I listened to. It's a rock opera I assume? And it's such a bop?? And yes this would be perfect for Kuroshitsuji, it matches that classical sophisticated vibe SO WELL with the general edge of the story (bc duh. it's a recreation of Beethoven's compositions but with epic rock music). God this is so good, thank you for the recommendation I will have to listen to the full album soon bc WOW.

• Nice person in my inbox :D

Thank you so much @eynnwwyjth !! That's such a sweet compliment too ;W; to call my art enchanting AAA ty!!! :>

• Animation advice

Thank you for checking out my YouTube @aeowolfestheater !! It's my primary social media, and I'm glad you fell down the rabbit hole of my many many uploads I posted over the years XD

To answer your question, I don't rly have the best personal advice when it comes to starting out as an animator rly! I kinda... fell into it? XD I started animating (well trying to animate in MS Paint), before I even turned 10, so I didn't really have that traditional learning curve? It was mostly a lot of trial and error, trying to figure out what works and what doesn't.

(If anyone wants to see how my old animations looked and how they improved over the years, I posted many "Animation Improvement" type videos that showcase my work over the years, so you get the idea of what I'm talking abt!)

youtube

Best advice I can give to any animator right now is probably the boring advice I personally never took (hence why it took so long for me to get where I am now). Learm the fundementals (the principles of animation, the ins and outs of the animation program you're using, general art skills are also a bonus depending of what you wanna animate). I think it's also important when you are first starting out to focus less on making your animations smooth and clean and more on learning how to capture movement itself (that's the point of animation after all!). Learn how things move depending on material, speed, physics etc. and how to communicate that in animation. I think just observing life helps a lot. References are your friend (video references are probs the best). Ofc clean and smooth animation is great as well, but that comes after you learn the basics I think. Stay on model the best you can while animating any shot (ofc unless you are doing squash and stretch or experimental animation). It makes it look less janky. Uhh I can't think of much else right now (bc again I never rly learned animation the normal way haha), so I will link my two animation tutorials here! They are abt Clip Studio Paint EX though, idk how helpful they are if you don't have that program :'0!

youtube

• Tumblr mutual reunion!

Omg hi @rissynicole and so sorry for the late reply!! As this post has shown so far I am extremely slow at replying to the asks I recieve in my inbox! Anyhow it is me! Katrinci! I got back on Tumblr in 2022 (has it already been over a year??)! Sadly someone else took my old username (an innactive empty blog too... I'm so mad), so I got a new username heyooo. I hope you've been well!! I'm doing better then I have in gosh, years I feel like XD. Mostly bc I'm finally out of school and finally focusing on stuff I wanna be doing (art career stuff and irl stuff!) But yeah I hope you've been well too!!! Feel free to reply or shoot me another ask if you feel like, I'll do my best to reply on time this time! (I'm so so sorry for being so late!!) Anyhow YIPPIE!

• Where to watch my silly Umineko Musical parody

It's here! I privated it on my main channel bc I thought it was too goofy/self-indulgent even for me (also it wasn't doing well and y'know how YouTube is with channels that underperform T_T), so I moved it to my secondary channel! It has both the song you are referencing and the other song I did! Enjoy :>

youtube

• What Croatian stereotype is Katzone?

Well every region in Croatia has its own stereotype, I'm from Dalmatia, and we are stereotyped as loud. So I def fit that one! And also I fit the "cura iz umjetničke" (girl from art school) stereotype quite well. I went to an art highschool and I'm gay, autistic, slightly mentally ill and look vaguely alt (literally I don't btw, but ppl see a buzzcut and it blows their minds, like "woah that's so alternative and quirky", not knowing I only have a buzzcut so I can't pull my hair smh (trichotillomania, look it up for more info)). Though I don't smoke weed so mby I am a bit subversive and not like other art girls.

• Kat sexuality confirmed??

Oki so what @xxparanoidvampirexx is referencing here is when I posted a poll asking my followers to guess my sexuality.

These were the results!

I have been democratically declared a lesbian by popular vote. This is probably true. Listen I'm like 95% certain I'm a lesbian but you never know. My autism makes it hard for me to figure out any sense of my identity bc I often mirror ppl around me (and most of my friends are lesbians or sapphic women in sapphic relationships), you get me? We can never know. My sexuality is currently a Schrodinger's cat situation I'm afraid.

ANYHOW, to answer LMAO- I mean fair assumption. I do mostly post about women on my blog (Saldy... I got back into Adventure Time recently and my blorbo there... is a *shivers* man. I saw someone on Twitter today as that fictional middle aged men are to lesbians what Taylor Swift is is to gay men. And like. Yeah.)

• Nice person in my inbox #2 + "What's your favorite Ciel outfit?"

First of thank you so much anon for the kind words!!! I'm rly happy to hear my art makes you gayer (the only correct compliment ever). Jokes aside, but fr this is super sweet :'D thank you!!!

To answer your question, I had to go skim through this video by @/nullbutler to refresh my memory on what outfits Ciel wears throughout the anime/manga/official art.

Here's the video if you wanna watch it!

youtube

Anyhow, my personal fave fits of his are extremely basic. While I do love Ouji fashion, I dislike seeing him in most of the oufits Yana puts him in. Like yes they look lovely, slay extremely hard and fit the visual aesthetic of Black Butler perfectly- but every time I see him in these frilly oufits I'm like "this is not reflective of his personality in any way, he would not wear this on his own, it's pure camp". Don't get me wrong- I love camp, and this anime/manga is as camp as you get. So while I love the more campy frilly oufits he wears aesthetically (and those are way prettier), I perfer when he's in stuff like this:

Like yes, these outfits are objectively less interesting and pretty- but I see stuff like this and I'm like yeah that's him. If Sebastian dropped dead and couldn't pick out his clothes anymore, this is what he would wear on his own accord methinks.

• STOP MAKING ME FEEL OLD 😭

Here's my live reaction of reading your ask @porfiriea :

What do you mean?? You were 6?? I doubt you watched my 2014 MS Paint animation era, I assume you found my channel during 2016-2017 at earliest (my Undertale and Yan Sim animation era). I refuse to believe you were born in the 2010s. Nuh-uh. No. Not happening. Fake news.

Jokes aside, but it's always cool to see ppl be like "oh I watched your stuff b4, I didn't know this Tumblr user was you!" It's a strange feeling!! Makes me feel like I did leave a mark on the animation side of YouTube. Feels nice! :'D but also old. And I'm only 20!! How will I feel when I'm 30 or 40?? Will I just turn to dust on the spot??

• Grelle's gender masterpost update

I'm so sorry anon, but I completely lost interest in this topic T_T! Plus even if I ended up making a masterpost, it wouldn't be fully accurate (or at least- I wouldn't be able to verify its authenticity completely), as I don't speak Japanese. So I would have to go off of Google translate and translations by English speaking fans who understand Japanese. And I don't wanna talk too much abt Japanese queer culture either. Even though I did a ton of research, I'm not Japanese and I never went to Japan! So I'd rather not risk spreading any potential misinfo. Sorry to let you down ;;!

• Another YouTube viewer spotted me in the wild!

Omg you spotted me!! In the wild!! That animation was crazyy, bc I made it rly fast and rly didn't expect it to do well. But I remember it did super well during the first day (got 100k views on the first day it was wild), and while I love that old video, I'm like. Rly? That one blew up?? Out of all my other ones?? I mean the idea was creative! But I feel I half assed it a little, I barely animated anything for it outside the headbop tweening and blinking animation XD. Mby I'm being too harsh on 14 year old Kat here. Nahh I'm not, I felt the same when I posted it innitially as well. But hey I still love that vid. Love the style I drew in at the time, I was still using a mouse for everything back then. Love the colors too! Mby I should remake it one of these days. Mby!!!

If anyone wants to watch the animation @gentle-starlight is refering to:

youtube

• Umineko time

@anawkwardlady This is the universal Umineko fandom experience I'm afraid. Being sad over Beato and wishing she was vibing (after you learn abt... the horrors...) XD

• ???

I'm so very concerned and do not know what this means or what this is refering to. I'm afraid O_O @hononyan what does this mean...

• What happened to my old Tumblr blog

It's completely ok to ask anon! In truth, I have this rly bad habit where I delete social media accounts when I'm having a bad mental health moment. It's always an impulsive decision I end up regretting. I deleted my old Tumblr in early 2021 I'm pretty sure, and I'm still so sad about it. I wish I didn't delete it. I had that blog since 2015 and now it's gone like poof. I can't get it back and I'm always emo abt it.

I might make like, an archive or something of my old art one day. I mean I still have most of it saved on my computer, but it would be nice to have all of it in one place publically again (it's always good to have stuff backed up somewhere)! Adding that to my to-do list XD

Oh and the worst part? I can't use my old username on Tumblr (Katrinci). Someone else took it. A BLANK EMPTY BLOG. I'm so mad. I'm soooooo mad give it back to meeee.

• THE END!

And with that I have answered all the asks I had in my inbox! Well, all the questions and stuff, I still have other stuff in my inbox like art requests but I'll get to that some other time if I feel like doing any of those! In any case, tysm for being patient everyone! Ik it took me very long to reply but I hope my responses were worth it! I wish all of you a nice day! My hand hurts from typing owie.

#📬 askbox #i talk abt sm stuff in this post holy cow.#it even has some art/animation advice bc some ppl asked for that so do read this post if it interests u!#oki DONE.#Youtube

the unexpected series | stranger things fic, steddie, rule 63!steve with surprise baby

quid pro quo | star wars: the clone wars fic, rex/echo, smut

the will to carry on | stranger things fic, abandoned wip, rule 63!steve

5. Do you respond to comments? i try to! i don't always have the spoons for it tho

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? surprisingly, it's not the fic that's all about grief and recovery. it's a star wars drabble, changing of the guard.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? the joke answer is quid pro quo. (because it's smut.) but most of my endings tend to be content or hopeful if not happy, so this is hard to quantify for me.

8. Do you get hate on fics? not as of yet, but given i write cloneshipping i'm honestly just bracing for it to happen at some point

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? indeed i do. i currently only have one smut thing uploaded, so idk if i can say anything for certain about trends, but given my wips... emotional sex and smut as character studies seem to be my thing.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? nope. not really my thing.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? nope! thankfully, i've heard horror stories

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? i think one that no longer exists was once translated. (i had a sad habit of deleting or orphaning things i was less than pleased with when i was younger. i know better now.)

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? ahaha yes but none of it i'm going to mention by name. all my co-written fic happened in middle school with IRL friends.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship? i'm a filthy multishipper this question is like asking me which of my hairs i like best

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? oh man. definitely the will to carry on and the couple of stranger things wips in my wip file. not that i don't love the stories anymore, but certain parts of the fandom annoyed me right out of any inspiration or desire to touch anything related to said fandom with a twelve foot pole.

16. What are your writing strengths? i like to think i'm good with characterization and dialogue.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? writing anything longer than 3k words max lmao though that has been improving lately and i have high hopes for the sev fic getting finished

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? there... there is a whole can of worms here that this question opens for me and i don't think anyone wants my ramble about dialogue, other languages, conlangs, dialects, and the effects of having been in anime fandom for so long so. this is not getting answered other than with a shrug

(unless someone wants the ramble in which case i will happily oblige)

19. First fandom you wrote for? teen titans cartoon when i was a wee thing. it was a self-insert fic that was less than a page in ms word, single spaced :')

20. Favorite fic you’ve written? this is such a cop-out answer but i genuinely don't think i can pick a favorite. maybe ordinal, just because i'm still super proud of having finished it and what i did with the characterization at missing scenes? but augh i want to put more here too

i'm tagging @bisexualdinahlance, @bilbosmom-belladonna, @cacodaemonia, aaaaand @cabezadeperro but no pressure if you're not game :> and if anyone wants to do it but isn't tagged /points to eyes /points to u

As a AAA dev, what is a task *outside* of the actual game development that is underrated but super critical to your job? Beyond coding, arting, programming, modeling, and QA...ing. (Obviously aside from hiring people.)

This might sound contrived, but one of the most valuable skills for any developer will always be communicating effectively. The vast majority of my work is collaborating with other people - people with differing attention levels, goals, personalities, priorities, and internal ways of thinking. Being able to understand their stated and unstated intentions and feelings is important, both for me to cooperate with them as people and also to do the work.

When I'm working with others, I need to be able to convey my ideas to them in order to generate their buy-in on my ideas and plans. They need to be able to communicate their ideas to me, so I can understand where they are planning on going next. And we both need to communicate our acknowledgement of what we've learned from each other so that the they recognize what I mean when I say "I think I get it, but can you please explain that second part again?"

This goes beyond a simple and direct speaking and understanding the words we say to each other. Humans communicate through many different channels - word choice, tone of voice, body language, visual imagery, and so on. I need to be cognizant of these additional clues when communicating with teammates - is Neelo telling me she gets it because she really gets it, or is she disengaging because she's tired and frustrated? Did I come across as confrontational and argumentative when I didn't mean to because of the phrasing I chose? Am I feeling annoyed because of something Bayn said, or was I already irritable going into the meeting? Was that comment intentionally sarcastic, or is there another underlying issue that should be addressed?

Communication is a constantly-evolving skill alongside workplace relationships. Now that so many of us work remotely, our communication skills must likewise adapt to take advantage of the strengths and compensate for the shortcomings of long distance collaboration. Misunderstandings during the development process can become extremely expensive mistakes to correct, especially if these mistakes take time for stakeholders to recognize them as such. Good communication skills are exceedingly valuable, both for preventing misunderstandings from happening and for working out solutions to past misunderstandings. The more one's responsibilities increase in scope, the more valuable communication skills become.

I freaking love Indie Games

Let me talk about something positive today. I wanna talk about Indie games. Because I freaking love Indie Games.

I... was for a long time not much of a "gamer". I mean, I had my Pokémon games and Digimon and I played quite a bit of Resident Evil for a variation of reasons. Also I did play Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts. But... I was not that much of a gamer. I had these few Japanese franchises and other than that I just did not do much in terms of gaming.

When I then started university and got my first desktop PC back then - one powerful enough to handle games - I got Bioshock and from there really got into games. So, I played it all. The big franchises. You know it. Dragon Age, Bioshock (which I can basically play with my eyes closed), Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, Far Cry and so on and so forth. You know those games. But...

Well, a couple of years ago, I noticed that I stopped looking forward to those new releases. And I think it started really with Cyberpunk. Because Cyberpunk 2077 was a game I was so freaking hyped for and I wanted to get it on release. But then... all the news about the crunch came out, I felt less and less like it. And then the game was all buggy af. And... yeah, I never got it.

But I also kinda fell out of love with the entire AAA game industry. So many of the games are created through crunch. So many of them are filled with endless tidium to stretch out the runtime. And every bit of diversity that is in there still very much feels like it is there for those diversity points - not out of actual conviction.

I did not game much for a long while... Until I started playing the Supergiant games, after getting them in a Steam sale. And let me tell you: I fucking loved Transistor. That was such an interesting Cyberpunk game. I enjoyed the heck out of it.

So, obviously I played all the Supergiant stuff. And yeah, sure, I had played a couple of other Indie games before (Undertale and Oxenfree come to mind), but I never had looked into Indie games before. And then I did and hell yeah.

Not all Indie game studios treat their developers good. No. But chances are higher that they do, compared to the big studios.

More than that: There is just more variation of indie games out there. Genres that in mainstream seem basically dead (including my beloved Metroidvania) are still alive and well within the indie sphere.

And diversity in Indie Games is actually true diversity. Often enough done by own voices. There are not only games that feature marginalized groups, but also those, that actually center around those experiences.

Also, most Indie Games actually respect my time. Other than AAA titles, that fill their world with endless nothing, Indie titles are often way more consciece. Something I can play through within 10-20 hours - but if I like can replay again and again.

And don't get me started with accessibility. Like, fuck. One should think that it should be possible for the big studios to make their games just a little bit more accessible, right? Yeah. Somehow still not happening.

So... Yeah. Sure, I am still gonna play my Digimon and Pokémon games. But for the most part I am sitting in my Indie corner and am quite happy here.

Especially because... well... It also seems more sustainable, right?

#is this tweet *actually* about how we keep doing shit that's actually not good for us just for a sense of fake satisfaction for completing?

My Top Posts in 2022:

getting into a relationship has been so weird. bc i thought it will be easy to know if i like them but it's not.

every time i had a crush prior, i would always try to forget them by thinking about the things i don't like about them, their flaws, etc. so now I've trained myself to try to push the thought of 'maybe i like them' away, sometimes before it even happens. it's a self defence mechanism, so i don't get hurt when they don't like me back.

so now i'm focusing on everything i don't like about him and why i shouldn't like them. and i'm not letting myself to fall in love with them, like i always did w crushes.

another thing is being afraid of sharing my thoughts and feelings about someone. especially to them. so when they outwardly says on one of our first dates that he likes me,, it feels like a trick or a trap. like, how can you know so fast,, you don't know me yet, how do you know what you're feeling already. because i can't do all those things. what if they just want to use me? what if they are a narcissist and a manipulator? and i'm just falling on their hook eventhough i feel anxious about it.. why do i feel like there has to be an alterior motive to liking me? am i pushing them away bc anyone who shows an interest in me must be deceiving me?

and if they're honest about what they're feeling, how can i with an clear conscience accept their love if i don't have my own heart figured out? i don't want to hurt them.

also, none of it feels like i thought it would. kissing is not some magical moment, especially when you don't know how. i don't want to jump into bed w them right away, maybe i don't even know what sexual attraction towards a real human being feels like.

...

i sat many nights with those thoughts and the conclusion i've come to is this. so what if you turns out don't really love them, so what if they turn out to be a bad person, so what if it doesn't end w sunshine and roses. don't think about what will happen. don't think about how or how soon it will end. live today. it doesn't matter that much if you love them, what matters more is that it feels good to be with them. and that's enough. it's enough to enjoy the good parts. you don't have to figure yourself put completely. i want to spend time with them and that's enough for now.

i can't believe y'all let "instead of meat i eat veggies and pussy" to not get into eurovision final. shame

25 notes - Posted May 11, 2022

countries from first semi that i wanted to go to final but didn't qualify:

Latvia - come on! "Instead of meat I eat veggies and pussy"?!?! are we all here not queer and have we not all been on the wlw side of tiktok when this was micro-viral? where were you when the voting was happening? MAKE EUROVISION MEMEABLE AGAIN

Slovenia - (disko) VIBES. i knew this probably wasn't gonna qualify but i still wanted it to. it's so sweet! just good energy and vibes.

The countries that qualified but I wish Latvia and Slovenia would've taked their place:

Armenia - it's just not doing for me what it should. It's a little basic and cliche.

Iceland - it's vibey, it's nice but maybe it's a little too bland? idk. i just like my favs more.

Greece - it was pretty good while it was happening but it left no lasting effect. don't remember how it sounds. listen, i love calm songs (very different from ballads) but this year were having a little too many and some are less good than others.

Switzerland - I love the message hut maybe it could've been done in any other way than the generic "ballad-y eurovision (issue) song". it's just not something new or interesting enough for me to excuse it's basicness.

that being said, as with every eurovision, i love everyone.

33 notes - Posted May 11, 2022

not enough people talking about denmark (reddi - the show). just a bunch of queer women playing fun rock ❤️ (idk if they're queer but that's the vibes). i liked the genre change in the beginning, the costumes, the song is fun. i'd exchange them to armenia or switzerland anytime.

My #1 post of 2022

funny how when i was eleven i thought i had, like, superpower hearing because i could hear things others couldn't (ex. what two people at the end of an empty hallway are talking) but then i understood that i can't hear shit when it's the person sitting next to me in class saying something or when we are in the loud corridors or the cafeteria during the break.

Weekend Top Ten #535

Top Ten Foolish Predictions for Not-E3 Season

It’s the time of year when the big game companies begin to trot out their wares for us to salivate over. In times gone by, of course, this was dominated by one big thing: E3. The Electronic Entertainment Expo was the place for games publishers to lift the hem of their digital skirts and allow you to peek at the ankles of gaming future. It was, arguably, the highlight of the videogame calendar, and for a while pretty much the only game in town if you wanted to make big splashy announcements. Big, bold showcase presentations were the order of the day, lovingly scheduled around a week in June, with all the major publishers and platform holders taking a bow one by one, and reports from the show floor drip-feeding carefully curated news snippets to your gaming publication of choice.

The sands had already begun to shift before Covid, but the fact that huge in-person events were now impossible but games (and consoles) came out regardless, kinda took the edge off E3. There are loads of different expos and conventions these days, many ways for a canny publisher to seed announcements and revelations throughout the year; and, of course, this is ignoring a company’s desire to cut out the middleman entirely. Even in the beforetimes, someone like Microsoft would technically have their own showcase just outside E3, but to all intents and purposes part of the same show; nowadays, why bother with E3 at all? Just release videos online directly to your audience. It serves Nintendo and Sony especially well too, with the former’s various “Nintendo Directs” offering a charming look at their idiosyncratic offerings.

So, effectively, E3 as we knew it is dead, even if it’s not altogether joined the choir invisible. In its place, a bevvy of different publisher-specific shows, scattered liberally throughout the summer; nay, the year. In fact, by the time you read this, Sony will have had one of its very own, showing off some VR games and – woohoo! – a PC release of Spider-Man, which is genuinely the only PlayStation exclusive I’m interested in.

This makes it quite hard to know exactly when to do one of these increasingly-stupid “prediction” posts. But I figure, if Sony is first out the gate this summer with its show this week, and with Microsoft’s big flourish on June 12th, now seemed as good a time as any. Of course, as I feel increasingly disassociated from the concerns of the wider game industry, it does feel a bit pointless anyway. But I’ll soldier on, at least for now.

The essential gist of my gaming life nowadays is that I have Game Pass. There’s a mixture of big AAA games and smaller, quirkier indies, and really that satisfies me. I’ve got Halo and Forza and – eventually – Starfield, Fable, Perfect Dark, Avowed, and a whole lot more besides. Every now and again I’ll buy something – a Cyberpunk here or a Lego Star Wars there. Quite a lot of big games eventually make their way to Game Pass – Mass Effect or Assassin’s Creed. And, like I say, tons of indies, like Goose Game or Unpacking or Townscaper or Turnip Boy or, well, loads of stuff. So this has kinda taken the edge of my breathless anticipation for future games, because I know there’s a lot of stuff on its way and I’ve got a lot of stuff to play in the meantime. And – as I’ll discuss later – a lot of my bucket list things have now been announced.

Anyway, this is all a load of bollocks. They’re going to announce games and features over the next couple of weeks, and this is a list I’ve pulled out my arse of some of the things they’ll say. Enjoy.

All those sexy Game Pass features I want: I don’t think we’ll see Xbox’s fabled “streaming puck” hardware very soon, but I do think they’ll announce improvements to Game Pass, including a family plan and the ability to stream any digital game you own. Will they do away with Gold while they’re at it? I don’t know, but if they did I think they’d have to somehow introduce a cheaper tier of the service.

Surprise Xbox exclusive, surprise Game Pass addition: so with Starfield shifting to 2023, I think this Christmas will be pretty barren for Xbox; Forza Motorsport will be there, but I’m not sure if they’ll have another first-party heavy-hitter (Hellblade and Avowed will both be first half of next year I reckon). But there will be something: a surprise Xbox game. Wolfenstein 3? Banjo Kathreeie? Something we’ve not really heard of will drop. And, to further shore up the gap, they’ll announce a major third-party game will hit Game Pass day one. Something like Sonic Frontiers or Gotham Knights.

Zeldas all over the shop: first off, Breath of the Wild’s sequel will get a formal title. I think rather than a “2” or whatever, it’ll be some play on the original title; Breath of the Sky? Force of the Wild? Something like that. And this, of course, is 2023, but we’ll get more Zelda before then: re-releases of all the classic 3D games this Christmas. I also think they’ll announce some other new game, maybe this Christmas, maybe next year, like a stylised 2D remake of one of the SNES games or something.

Pikmin 4eva, Metroid 4neva: it’s taken a million years, but I finally think we’ll finally see Pikmin 4. And what’s more, I think it’ll be out this Christmas, a big Nintendo first-party title. Their other, long-awaited game? Well, I just don’t think we’ll hear any more about the new Metroid Prime this year.

The Star Wars games you’re looking for: we already know that the Jedi Fallen Order sequel is called Jedi Survivor. I think we’ll see proper gameplay this month. I also think we’ll get first glimpses – but not much more – of Respawn’s other Star Wars titles. I’m gonna totally make it up and say: one is a third-person tactical squad game set during the Imperial invasion of Mandalore (Star Wars: The Purge of Mandalore?); the other a fast-paced mission-based FPS set in the early days of the Rebellion (Star Wars: Rebel Agent?).

Sony announces a brand-new IP: they basically want a Destiny or something, yeah? And I think that’s what they’ll announce: a fantastical sci-fi shooter with some kind of live-service element. I don’t think it’ll be free to play; I think they’re fairly wedded to their “buy a big game outright” model. But I think it’ll look the business, graphics-wise. On the other hand, don’t they own PlanetSide? Maybe they’ll reboot that.

More LucasArts loveliness: buoyed by the reception afforded to Return to Monkey Island, LucasArts (or are they Lucasfilm Games again? I forget) will announce remakes or pseudo-sequels to some of their classic adventures. A new Loom? Sexy 4K Sam and Max? That sort of thing. and as for Monkey Island: we’ll get gameplay footage and a release date. I kinda hope it gets a proper physical release on all formats, to go with the physical copies I’ve got of all the other games (well, most of them – I don’t think I ever had Tales of Monkey Island).

Sim-ples: Sims 4 is big business but it’s getting on a bit. Can we get a new one? Yeah, let’s say EA announces The Sims 5. It’s prettier, a bit easier to control on console, and has a kind of cut-down mode for younger gamers (my daughter just likes the act of making a family more than anything else). But how’s about this: they also announce a brand-new Sim City game. It’s overdue! Skyline is stealing all its thunder!

Before I run out of space, other things I think we’ll see: lightning round! The new Assassin’s Creed will get a massive push. We’ll get a trailer for Indiana Jones, which I do actually think will be Xbox exclusive. We’ll see something more of the Knights of the Old Republic reboot. More Suicide Squad, and another game based on a DC character – maybe Wonder Woman. God of War: Ragnarok, which I still think will be a 2023 game. More of Alan Wake 2. More of that Avatar game. Oh, some kind of Halo single-player content. And – of course – an ingenious and hilarious Devolver Digital presentation, which will be, essentially, a blackly comic sci-fi short film.

Something totally ridiculous and crazy: I’ve been doing this for ages now, and I’ve done a list like this nearly every year, and I’ve always made unrealistic predictions based on stuff that I just want. These have always included a new Fable, a new Perfect Dark, and a sequel to Monkey Island by Ron Gilbert. Amazingly, all of these things are now happening – even the Monkey one, which I thought was borderline impossible. So what ridiculous pie-in-the-sky things do I have to hope for? I mean, they’ve even brought back Zool, for god’s sake (put it on Game Pass!). A brand-new Duke Nukem? A Tiberium Sun/Red Alert 2 remaster? The revival of Project Gotham? Dizzy?! Look, let’s keep it simple; as I say, I’ve been doing this for so long, things are gonna get cyclical. So how about we revisit one of my first oh-god-they’re-really-making-it things, and say that Microsoft announce – wait for it – Crackdown 4. C’mon, you know you want it.

Aaa pls part 2 of crush culture!! I loved it

crush culture pt. 2 !

↳ in which, an interview flips ur world upside-down!

pronouns: they/them

warnings: none :)

notes: HERES THE PART 2 U FELLAS WANTED! buckle up folks mars is going on a posting spree today.. 2 FICS! 2 fics in one day lets see how many drafts i can get done. btw this is shorter because i ran out of ideas sorry pals

"hello andrew!" the crowd cheered as he walked onto the set of the tonight show, shaking jimmy's hand and sitting down on the small couch in front of his desk. "i believe you know why we called you in? we told your managers not to say anything to you and to try and keep you busy throughout the past 2 weeks." andrew nodded, "i'm assuming the reason i've been called in is because a. i did something or b. something else happened and or you missed me!"

"well, it was definitely both!" andrew laughed resting his head in his hands. "oh dear god" the lights dimmed and the screen next to him turned on, the audience letting out a scream as a video of you was pulled up. andrew let out a loud laugh as he looked up, his face turning red seeing him on the screen behind you. "we actually have them in one of our back-rooms! their manager kidnapped them and brought them here so you guys will get to talk after you watch this silly little clip." the audience grew louder and andrew slumped back into the couch. seemingly the desire for them to swallow him whole growing by the second.

the clip started playing and the crowd watched as andrew's face grew a crimson red, his head in his hands giggling. the clip ended and all he heard was a quick shush of the audience and jimmy telling someone to bring you out. a faint "OH COME ON FUCK YOU JIMMY" was heard from the back-room and jimmy let out a loud laugh, watching as the door opened and you stomp into the room. "i thought i told you i wasn't leaving my house after that damn-" you stooped dead in your tracks and your eyes widened as you saw andrew on the couch.

"i knew this was a set-up um.. hi?" your face grew red as-well as andrews. both of you staying silent, jimmy still laughing in the background. andrew stood up and went for a hug, which you gladly returned. you both sat down next to each other and jimmy took a moment to calm down. "you two seem to be getting along great already- so shall we talk about those clips?" the audience 'oohed' and you and andrew took a glance at each other before he started talking, "okay well i obviously didn't expect that to come up in an interview- but hi!" he turned over to you and spoke to you directly. "i'm a big fan of your stuff, it's nice to be able to meet you in person." your face grew red and you muttered a quick thank you before letting out a small laugh.

"oh my god i didn't expect this today jimmy i'm gonna fucking move into your walls and scape them every night before you go to bed you cant just DO THIS" everyone let out a laugh at your frustration, you sweetly turned to andrew and shyly waved. andrew waving back at you. "so, social network enjoyer huh?" you smiled and nodded. "yep! actually i think i've mentioned this before in an interview i just never said the name of the movie- but i had half of your line memorized by timestamp it was absolutely horrible." "THAT WAS THE MOVIE?" jimmy looked at you with wide eyes and you proudly nodded, andrew loosing his mind in the corner of your eye.

"you know, i didn't expect an interview to lead to this" andrew laughed and replied "me either" jimmy smiled at the both of you, "well! you're both free to go now, we have another guest to bring on tonight!" you scoffed jokingly. "alright! well you got what you wanted come on andrew" he laughed and got up, holding out his hand and pulling you off the couch. jimmy waved goodbye and the audience cheered as you both left together.

"so, wanna go hang out in my dressing room?" you let out a laugh. "jeez pal take me out to dinner first" "i think that could be arranged"

notes: sorry if this wasnt good fellas i ran out of ideas half-way like how the hell does this even WORKKKKK

what i think the mha boys need in a s/o...

part 1/3

characters: todoroki, bakugo, midoriya

spoiler warning: none

cw: gn!reader, headcanons, fluff lol

a/n: for those who have requested matchups, i promise i have not forgotten about you. i am actively working on them!! they just take a while <3.

TODOROKI SHŌTO

shōto needs a therapist friend.

listen, he’s not very good at the whole emotions/vulnerability thing yet, but he’s trying. when dating shō, expect some emotional outbursts from him, as he tends to keep it bubbling inside way too often. he needs an s/o that doesn’t mind lending him a shoulder to cry on, and responds to his problems with sympathy rather than pity.

they don’t always need to know what to say, but if they can show him that he is loved, he’ll absolutely melt.

empathy and understanding is a bigbig thing. it’s really important that his s/o has no ulterior motives and genuinely shows that they want him for who he truly is and not for anything else. not his status, his power, or anything like that. just him. shōto todoroki. because at the end of the day he isn’t his grades, his quirk, his past, etc. he is a person. and his s/o needs to show him that that is more than enough.

in no way is this man submissive, but somebody who can talk him out of some of his more impulsive decisions without being too overbearing would be ideal. somebody who can be practical and reason with him, but not to the point where it feels like they’re telling him what to do. he hates feeling tied down like that, yk?

misc...

somebody willing to listen, but not afraid to carry the conversation.

a good cook?

someone hardworking and determined! shows passion and drive in something. whether it be academics or a personal goal. shōto needs somebody equally/almost as driven as him because he connects with people by attempting to understand them.

SOMEONE SUPPORTIVE OF HIS DREAM TO BECOME A HERO AND WILL TELL HIM THAT THEY ARE PROUD OF HIM.

motherly vibes almost?

he just needs a hug man

shōto please marry me

BAKUGO KATSUKI

bakugo needs somebody who is patient and willing to help him grow

i mean...it’s BAKUGO. he’s a hot head and you HAVE to be able to handle that. no crying when he screams at you for getting a math problem wrong HAHAHAH

also: he’s actually very emotionally intelligent so if he knew his attitude bothered you i think he’d at least attempt to be a little gentler

very important to note that having patience does not equal being a pushover. he would absolutely hate dating somebody who cannot assert themselves, and i believe he would not do well with somebody who’s super passive either. he’s extremely dominate, but letting him have his way (not in a sexual way 😐) with you would not be healthy.

not to say that it isn’t possible!!! this is just my opinion. passive bakugo simps rise i hate confrontation too but i would love to have an enemies to lovers relationship with this man.

he’ll need somebody who’s pretty good at picking up on emotions since he tends to lash out a lot too. if you’re able to look deeper into the reasons as to why he’s acting the way he is, he’ll silently love it. you have to be willing to reach out to him.

mutual respect is vital in every relationship but ESPECIALLY in one with mr.katsuki here. if you win his heart, he thinks you’re absolutely incredible, so he needs a s/o that feels the same!!!

he likes feeling capable and enjoys compliments so i actually think he’d benefit from somebody who outwardly displays their affection. validation from you would feel otherworldly to him so do it often!! even if he acts like a douchebag about it just do it. he has a superiorty complex let him be.

misc...

similar to todoroki, he needs somebody who is supportive of him and has their own aspirations in life.

somebody with a REALLY good sense of humor!!! make him laugh and he’ll be thinking about it for the rest of the day.

you have to get along with kirishima, but that won’t be hard to do so it’s fine.

MIDORIYA IZUKU

midoriya needs somebody who will tell him to take care of himself (ITS KINNIE TIME GUYS IM SO SORRY.).

this angel is doing his absolute best.

everyone in 1A is a workaholic but midoriya takes this to another level. he’s so goal-orientated that he tends to overwork himself ALL THE TIME. this is why he needs somebody who will force him to relax. :(. he needs his s/o to remind him that his health matters too.

he’d adore it if his s/o cooked him meals, called him frequently, and made an effort to help him with his hero studies. literally any act of service would make his heart burst. he takes care of so many people it’s like...he needs somebody who will do the same for him too.

basically, he needs a mom friend but not to the extent that shōto would need one HAHA. just like,,, somebody who very obviously cares, yk?

expressive about how much they adore him

misc...

aaa somebody willing to do study dates with him would be an incredible thing for him to experience :]. he enjoys being productive so if his s/o can turn something that’ll contribute to his success as a hero into a date, he’d be like ☆_☆ . would fall harder for you than he already had before (if that’s even possible).

also, don’t sweat it if you’re bad at school, he’s more than willing to help you. he loves being of assistance!

loyalty is a big thing too!!!!

SOMEONE WHO LISTENS OH I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.

im being so real if you want to win his heart you have be willing to listen to his rants about all might. having similar interests would be HUGE for him. he needs somebody who will let him rant for as long as he wants without making him feel like a nuisance (don’t we all).

reassurance. he overthinks a lot so somebody who will acknowledge his efforts to be a good boyfriend is mandatory.

someone who understands where his priorities lie.

while he would benefit from a s/o that reminds him not to overwork himself, he absolutely needs them to also realize that he will do whatever it takes to be a great hero.

there needs to be a mutual understanding between him and his partner about how his career is the most important thing in his life.

compromise is gonna be key in this area lol.

500 followers! fuck yeah!

Eek, tysm for 500 followers! It always shocks me so much when I reach a follower goal, it just doesn't click in my brain how so many of you can perceive and enjoy my content lmao

As a thanks I've decided to open up match ups for both ahs and marvel, basically I'll match you up with a character and give you a few bullet points elaborating on why I've chose them/some personalised relationship headcanons based on what you've told me!

Whenever I open match ups I tend to get quite a lot, so I'd just like you warn you in advance that I may not get around to all of them! Please include in your match up ask;

Information about yourself, appearance stuff is great but isn't necessary if you're uncomfortable talking about that, when writing these match ups I usually don't consider these factors unless it's something like dyed hair and the character maybe loving the colour or helping you redo it as in my mind, when writing fanfic, it's for fun and the characters don't care for appearance

Please please don't forget to add the fandom you want the ship for in your ask, if you ask off anon I can shoot you a message to double check but if you're on anon I won't be able to answer.. In the same vein, if you specifically want a ship for a certain gender, please add that in too!

Any hobbies and interested are a great one to include! It can help me decide what dates you may go on with the characters or if you have anything in common

Of course a bit on your personality and main attributes is amazing, it's a very important part as to whether or not you get along with someone

This last one isn't necessary, but I absolutely love it, love languages! Basically how do you show love to your partner and how to you like to have love shown back to you. Some examples of love languages would be physical touch, gift giving, words of affirmation, acts of service ect

And of course, last but not least, a big thanks to all my mutuals of whom without I wouldn't be here!

@undeadcortez @darlingkitt @thatspookyagent @spidergirlmcu @tatesimper @sapphimoff @whiiiiplaaaaash @divineruler @adminjames @americxn @tatestripedsweater @mrs-march-ahs @nerdydosethings @no-mercy-bby @kitwalker64 @peterskindacool @kitwalker02 @kaisadmin @quicksilverownsmysoul plus more I've probably forgotten to tag bc im no good with usernames 😔😔 of course there's all the rp accounts too, honestly yall light up my day, but I wish not to burden more people with tags lmao,,, besides, a few of their admins are here anyway 👀

Aaa but yes! 500!!! Thank you so much!

Not to like toot my own horn, but here to 500 more? 😉 👀👀 jkjk... Unless—

#Ignore me plastering michael all over my account whilst simultaneously being too scared to write for him—#500 follower celebration #mossy mumbles #match ups #ships #marvel #mcu #ahs #American Horror Story

Omg your wedding hcs were so pretty ♡ Do you have any hcs about which of the Bucci Gang would want kids/how many? I have total baby fever aaa

Good morning, anon!

This is something I definitely think and talk about with friends about because of a few self ships we have! Here's some baby fever fuel for you 💕

Bruno Bucciarati

As an only child and forced to grow up much faster than anyone should ever have to, Bruno was very lonely in his childhood life outside of time he would spend with his father.

Due to this, he would love nothing more than to have a large family and often thinks about what it may have been like if he'd never joined Passione and settled down instead.

Very good with children; he's a natural when it comes to calming them down and making them laugh. Baby fever usually strikes him afterwards and sticks with him for hours on end.

Ideally, he would love to have 4 to 5 kids but the chance of having any kids at all is enough to make his heart impossibly full!

Leone Abbacchio

Had two siblings growing up; he was the oldest of the three and took on a protective mentality of his little sisters. He loves them dearly and thinks about what it was like with them when he allows himself to think about having kids.

It's not something he's really thought about at length since he was an officer. At one point in time, he thought he'd meet someone and settle down, but Passione changed that.

Children make him nervous, or I should say, his inexperience with children makes him nervous. He worries about being a good enough father for his children as his own upbringing was...questionable at best.

He wouldn't want many children, perhaps 1 or 2, but he would love to have at least one little girl.

Guido Mista

Already a father; have you seen how he is with Sex Pistols? Have you seen how they are with him?? Additionally, he came from a large family, about 6 or 7 kids in total, and often had to watch over his younger siblings, so he's got experience.

Has thought about having a family in passing, but just like getting married, it's not something he's put much thought into. If he does end up with someone that would want to have kids with him though, he'd be thrilled!

His skill with kids is almost parallel to Bruno in all honesty! He knows how to make kids laugh and knows when they need extra attention. His upbringing kept him on his toes, so he's surprisingly composed around even the most chaotic children.

That being said, Mista would still only want up to 3 kids, for obvious reasons.

Narancia Ghirga

Asking Narancia is he wants kids is like asking a fish if it needs water to live. He would love to have kids eventually!

He thinks about it more when he's joking around with the rest of the team or even by himself watching Aerosmith glide and twist around in the sky. If he had kids that could see his Stand, then they could play almost all the time!

As much as he would like kids, he's not the best with kids. He's only 17 and hasn't had much proper training in anything, so he would need a lot of help if he was ever going to be a father. Luckily, he has people in his life that would be willing to help him whenever he needs it.

When he thinks more on it, Narancia would like a smaller family with 1 to 3 kids. Any more seems like too much of a handful to him.

Pannacotta Fugo

Unfortunately, I don't think Fugo would ever want kids himself as they're a responsibility that he wouldn't really want to take on while being a part of Passione. He already views Narancia as a younger brother as well as a teammate and that's enough for him.

However, as protective and cautious as he is, he would be a wonderful uncle!

Never, ever brings Purple Haze out if children could be around. It's one of the main reasons he doesn't want kids. He could never forgive himself if PH, or he by extension, did something to take their life.

Giorno Giovanna

Like Bruno, Giorno was an only child growing up, but he never got to experience a loving relationship from any of his parents. He didn't receive that kind of familial care until he was 15 and a fully accepted member of Bruno's team and it has left a major impact on him.

Thinks about having kids in passing; he wouldn't really want to have kids in the present Napoli environment and would much rather put those thoughts to the side until after he's established himself and completed his goal to become a Gang Star ™️.

As a calm and careful presence, Giorno is decent with kids but, like Narancia, would give in at the slightest pout or hint of puppy dog eyes. He'd spoil his kids rotten if he could.

Would probably only want 1 child. He'd want to give them all of the love and care he never received as a child and would constantly have them around him.

✨+ Bonus: Trish Una!✨

Having never had a father figure in her life until she was 15, Trish is very biased in how and when she would like to have kids.

Very often thinks about having kids in the future because she thinks about the childhood she had on Sardinia with her mother. Those were some of her fondest memories and she would love nothing more than to be able to live through that again.

Would absolutely spoil her kids in public but scold them in private if they took things too far. She loves freedom and choices, but she knows when enough is enough. Would go to Bruno and Leone for advice when she feels like she isn't being a good mother.

She hasn't thought about how many kids she would like to have, but memories of her mother prompt her into wanting only 1 child. That may change in the future, but for now she just has those rosy memories as reference.

AAA ! I’m so excited your ask box is open again I love your writing style ! I was wondering if I could get law, zoro, and robin with a tiny s/o who has devil fruit powers similar to how number 5 from the umbrella academy powers work ??? Thanks 💕💕💕

Heyya!🍀 thank you so much 🥺^.^ and sure thing! Hope you enjoy~

(Gender Neutral)

Headcanons: Law, Zoro, Robin – with Tiny! S/O who has a devil fruit with Number 5's (Umbrella Academy) ability.

Trafalgar Law

🍄{Name} possessed quite a versatile devil fruit that gave them many interesting abilities, though it had a slightly similar nature to when Law used his Room and Shambles to teleport. Although {Name} could just do it, no matter the distance and were capable of possible time travel, they weren’t too good at controlling that yet.

🍄Law was pretty surprised the first time he saw it and was actually very interested in knowing more. So he often would ask {Name} a lot of questions about it and wanted to see it in action to discover the full extent of their capabilities.

🍄But even without their ability, {Name} is incredibly skilled and can easily take down others despite their smaller stature.

🍄With a wide range of use for their abilities, {Name} always used their abilities to help give them an advantage. Due to their lack of size and raw brute strength they used their abilities paired with their intellect. Finding various ways to effectively fight in a more calculated manner.

🍄While being on the frontline fighters, {Name} chooses to use their ability often for the sake of protecting Law, especially when he is trying to reserve energy without excessive use of his own abilities.

🍄{Name} would sometimes abuse their ability, one time Law was showering, humming to a song and softly singing – something that can’t be heard from outside, yet {Name} heard it all and commented on it his singing, which just left Law embarrassed.

Roronoa Zoro

⚔{Name’s} abilities were truly diverse and easily adapted to any situation, it had helped so many times especially when it came to getting the other Straw-Hats out of difficult situations and spots.

⚔When Zoro first encountered {Name} it was during a fight, and he found them one of the most difficult people to fight by far due to their abilities and skills. Zoro admittedly underestimated them but truly found their ability mesmerising. They tend to work as a team in very difficult situations.

⚔Even after learning quite a lot about it, he still finds their ability very fascination, but does use it to his advantage. Such as when gambling, Zoro might just ask his S/O to have a little peek into the winning bets.

⚔Many people don’t take {Name} seriously, mostly because of their size but {Name} proves them wrong by a show of skill and ferocity in battle

⚔Has protected Zoro many times with various attacks and using their abilities to jump back and forth, they make sure that other stragglers do not interrupt his fight. The ability has also proved extremely useful when searching for Zoro when he has gotten lost.

⚔They tend to irritate Zoro with their ability especially while he is trying to train and fund amusement in disrupting him for a bout of fun.

Nico Robin

📚Time travel, adept fighting style, assassination, spatial jumps – was all a part of {Name’s} forte. Skilfully using all of these factors to their utmost potential and advantage whether in everyday life or in a battle.

📚Even though Robin was a devil fruit user herself, she still found some surprise in the seemingly endless abilities that still remained. When she first saw {Name’s} abilities they were truly fascinating to her and when hearing that they could time travel…Robin instantly thought of being able to see history with her own eyes, especially something like the void century.

📚Her initial perceptions have not changed much and has seen more and more of their capabilities, although she still inquires on the limitations of time travel.

📚Despite {Name} actually being quite a formidable and intimidating person to fight, Robin always found them adorable, even in the middle of a fight. Robin sometimes allowed herself to be distracted by {Name}.

📚When using her own ability, it can sometimes leave Robin quite vulnerable to other attacks, this is a pertinent time when {Name} decidedly takes the initiative to use their abilities to fight alongside Robin and protect her.

📚{Name} truly enjoys just popping out of nowhere to surprise Robin.
