bby a-Yuan as cute things my niblings have done

a-Yuan, fresh out of the bath, sitting naked in LWJ’s lap and using his big sleeves like blankets

LWJ: Can you dressed now, please? It is cold.

a-Yuan: No! I want to be cold!

LWJ: You want to be cold? Why?

a-Yuan: So you have to hold me UwU

----------------------------

a-Yuan: Qing-jie, you wanna know how tired I am?

WQ, dryly: I’m sure you’ll tell me.

a-Yuan flops face down on the floor and then just lays there

----------------------------

a-Yuan: Where’s Qing-jie, Xian-ge?

WWX: She’s at work, radish.

a-Yuan: Why?

WWX: Because she needs to make money.

a-Yuan: Why?

WWX: ... Capitalism.

a-Yuan, suddenly furious: CAPITALISM?!

---------------------

a-Yuan: Rich-gege, the sun is not up. I’m sleeping.

LWJ: I know, baobei. That’s because it’s raining. You need to wake up now.

a-Yuan, very tired: But the suuuuuuuuun.

-------------------

WWX walks into the kitchen to find a-Yuan and Wen Ning hard at work

WWX: Oh? Whatcha making?

WN: Popo gave me her recipe for--

a-Yuan, delighted: A MESS!

----------------

a-Yuan: I’m telling on you!

WWX: Oh yeah? To who?

a-Yuan pauses to think for a moment, then puts his head down and begins to pray.

i'm locking everyone who writes about abusive parents and their kids (regardless of age) in a room until they can write a storyline that ends without

the abuse being explained away or not "actually having been abuse, they were trying to protect you or insert bs excuse here"

the abusive parent child reconciling

the child is somehow at fault for not having considered their parents emotions and catering to them. yknow. as a child.

"they just couldn't reach out to you the way you needed :( sorry. He'll do better now! it actually had nothing to do with you and all the years of your life you felt ignored and belittled actually all had to do with him, and better forgive and forget!

the child having to make up because their kids "deserve to have grandparents" (not these grandparents)

emotional abuse/neglect being treated as a lesser form of abuse because it didn't leave physical wounds

moms are somehow less accountable for abuse because she's a girl and all moms are magical beings who can't be abusive somehow. (this is false)

#writing #abusive parents #done done done with this narrative #yes i am looking marvel directly in the eyes for this one #but also elementary #and httyd #and 911 #and harry potter #and white collar #and atla #and pretty much any media #look if you're going to take a story where the abusive parent and kid reconcile #then you by god better show me that that parent has EARNED that kids trust back through blood sweat and tears and not offscreen #in the background somewhere where we didn't see them going to therapy and trying to do better and be better people #man people are obsessed with abusive parents getting a redemption arc #when they've done nothing to earn the redemption arc and instead the kids deserve to never speak with them again

[readingbythestreetlights]

no bc i think it's incredibly unfair to tear apart soulmates for no good reason

#honestly yuki and liam deserve so much #also tell me they're not platonic soulmates. tell me they're not #they just get each other!! #fuck red bull man #liam has literally been performing so well #and for what? #just to get screwed over in the end? #i'm gonna get hate for this but i think young drivers deserve chances #i think it's bad to deny fresh talent the opportunities they've fully earned #yuki tsunoda #liam lawson #lawsonoda #f1

[autism-swagger]

Shout out to slightly insane women covered in blood. Gotta be one of my favorite genders

#I'm powering through the shame of having interests to post this #excessive blood is so fun to draw #I thoroughly enjoyed making the background as well #sam carpenter #tara carpenter #scream 6 #Tara tag #my art #yknow what I think they both deserve to go even more feral. they've earned it. #horror tag

at least the Crypters aren't underestimating us anymore, but...

#fgo #fate/grand order #lostbelt 6 #lostbelt 6 spoilers #gudako #beryl gut #digital #doodle #not pictured: Castoria having to hold Guda back for a second before they remember the rules of Gloucester #otherwise they would've attacked him on the spot. #guda's usually chill and cheerful but i think they've earned the right to feel murderous rage maybe even act on it #esp. after Beryl killed someone they admired right in front of them just for kicks #but i do kind of like this mix of respect and fear Beryl gives us its well-deserved

[service4cops]

"I work better on my knees" I told them, as I took the last few snaps.

Yeah, they knew what I meant and they put me to work as soon as we got back.

#congratulations #congratulatory service #they've earned it #they deserve it #winners #made them an offer they couldn't refuse #let me worship you #let me get on my knees for you #two hot cops #healthy competition #who wants to go first?

[andessence]

so cruel to be stricken with blorbotions for a character in a mediocre source material. i love u ma'am but ur covered in bad writing grime!! idk if there's anything i can do for u....

#this is about honoria from the buccaneers and i'm in pain #i just need someone to tell me why this show parses like it's fully missing episodes' worth of plot and character development. #why do characters constantly reference events that never happened on screen #why do they think they've earned their jane austen angsty confessions when we haven't done enough building on any relationships here #honoria and mabel are quietly having the x500 speedrun of every lesbian period piece's plot without any of the emotional logic #like the writers really think they can have characters have fights and storm off and then.... without doing any scenes that show developmen #..... jump right to a ' i'm so sorry for the things i said. i've totally changed my perspective and gotten over this conflict. offscreen <3 #guys.... guys u need to show characters interacting with conflict and mind-changing stimuli they cannot just whiplash between vibes #with absolutely no apparent motivation other than 'this is what has to happen next for the plot' #killing me over here. honoria sweetie i'm so sorry that an ugly ass writer's room like this would even say that oh my god #i don't even read edith wharton's works but i KNOW she has to deserve better than this adaptation is doing to her writing #||x sheer calculated silliness [ ooc ]

My parents should be fuckin ashamed

#you borrow 80 bucks then can only find me 21 back then i put that 21 into good for your kids then spend the rest of my paycheck getting #diapers pull ups medicine more food for kids and then i fill up the 15 passenger van and then when dad asks why i don't have money to eat #on my lunchbreaks at work like I'm some over spending wild irresponsible bitch when he's the one going to concerts and paying for fancy dat #s and jewelry for his gf and buying groceries for her but you know it's fine #take all my time and energy #so that i literally am a zombie and fall asleep on the very very very limited free time i get #(after doin extra chores to earn said free time) #wo that i fall asleep half way in which isn't fair to my partner and isn't fair to me #take all my income so i cant afford anything #take all my time #take all my energy #YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED YOU GROOMED ME AND MESHED THE FAMILY'S ENTIRE LIFE STYLE FOR ME TO BE LIKE THIS #I CANT MAKE HEALTHY FRIENDSHIPS BECAUSE I JUST CAN NOT FUNCTION IF I'M NOT GIVING EVERYTHING TO SOMEONE #IT SUCKS I HATE IT #THEY'LL NEVER ADMIT THEY FUCKED ME OVER #EVER #THEY'LL NEVER DO ANYTHING TO FIX IT OR CHANGE #AND I HAVE NO HOPE FOR ANY CHANGES #MY LITTLE SIBLINGS SEE WHAT I DO FOR THEM AND THEY HUG ME AND TELL ME HOW MUCH THEY LIVE ME #'thank you so much for taking care of us' that tell me all the time 'you do so much for us' #it breaks my heart i wish i could give them the world i love them so much they deserve so much better #my mom lost her chance to be decent my dad better learn soon otherwise all his kids minus his favorite will hate him #i love ny parents #and i know they live me and my siblings #but they groomed me into the most miserable personification of elder daughter syndrome and they should be ashamed for what they've done #and be ashamed that they sucked so bad that they're own child had to step up

[shevr]

never feeling right in saying any of whatever i got going on is due to some kind of burnout because it always feels like burnout implies you actually tried & managed to do something cool & impressive to get to that point

#like. ULTIMATELY i 'think' i know this is being dumb and expecting it to have to be 'earned' somehow #and im coating this in my own disdain and expectations for myself #but i'll always be like. seein artists online mention they're dealing with some bad burnout and feel like #well yeah that's fair and deserved they've done a ton of stuff in the past. been super productive and inspiring and hardworkin n all #(also generally they're still never entirely unproductive and still make kickass stuff but not the point) #and i'm like; idk i've never worked hard enough or made anything to justify relating to being burned out like people who have #so conclusion generally : mostly i just kinda suck; on a base level. whoops ! happens ! il faut de tout pour faire un monde ! #im not even drunk enough yet to be posting thi s woof. sorry #ill catch up though #shevr #delete

Due to some recent developments, I've decided to make some changes— or rather, I want to return to how I used to function across my blogs. I used to run a tight ship and I miss it. People have always known me to treat my mains as, sort of unspoken exclusives, but I'm going to cement that in a bit more clearly as of today, moving forward into 2023 with it as I properly settle back into life on Tumblr. As a note, this does not require reciprocation, it is simply how I choose to go about this topic. And don't worry, I will update my general guidelines in a moment to reflect all this.

From hereon out, if I choose to list you as a main writing partner in a muse's page (and it is incredibly important to note that I will be even more exceedingly picky about it; it is not just tied to friendships behind the scenes): I am loyal to your portrayal and am, from that point forward, actively disinterested in writing with duplicates of your muse. This does not change much from my end, as I believe that I have always practiced this concept with the only exception being when two close friends pick up a muse simultaneously (and to my recollection, this has only occurred twice). So in essence, yes, I practice a sort of exclusivity from my end that, let me reiterate, does not require to be reciprocated. With this change, however, I want to note two main expectations that I will hold you to, and which you can, obviously, demand of me in return (and add your own):

Activity: Mika in specific will enjoy this one; you can expect certain activity from me, as life reasonably permits it (ie.: if I'm ill, let me sleep all day, come on). Let's call myself out here: I have been primarily gone from Tumblr for a period of almost three years, and regardless of the reasons behind it, I have sorely missed being here. I miss the days of 2016/2017 when this was an active part of my day and people had my attention throughout it. Since my life is finally settling, my passion for this place is returning and I actively await the moment when I can sit down and be here. And so with that— I feel confident to say that you can expect regular activity and replies from me as a writing partner. Don't let me take months, because you deserve more from me as a writing partner and I expect you to hold me to that if it were ever required.

Priority: As my main writing partner, you will always be prioritized, without exception. I hold myself to this very strictly (and always have), but it is also something that comes with incredible ease. For you become my main in the first place, it means that I must very thoroughly enjoy writing with you, so it is only normal that you get first dibs. And that when I open my drafts, I automatically navigate to your thread because I actively want to respond to it. This also means that when I come up with ideas or specific plots that involve your character (or even feral meta), I will always come to you.

These are two things that I expect to be reciprocated. I'm not demanding all of your time, I am not demanding you to tie yourself down to my portrayal in the way that I choose to do with yours, but I am demanding the same treatment of the above two points that I offer you, if we become main writing partners. It has to do with respect, and that is something that I have always held in very high regard.

(Again: don't forget the tags which will likely be even more important, who knows...)

#[ out of character. ] whatever. i don't really care. i'm just gonna sit this one out. #[ to shorten this for my guidelines will be interesting-- but i wanted to note this here. ] #[ with my return to tumblr-- comes my return of running a tight ship. that's what i did when i enjoyed my time here most. ] #[ my main writing partners simply mean a lot; i no longer wish to add friends to it just because they're my friends. ] #[ i want people there because they've earned their place to be there. in the same way that it should be in return. ] #[ i don't want to be your main unless i've earned it. and from thereon out; i have to keep earning it. ] #[ i will do my best to hold myself to that standard-- but if i ever falter; verbally smack me. because you deserve much more from me. ] #[ so yes. i will be culling my mains-- very very strictly. and i don't want people to take it personally. ] #[ if anything-- see it as follows: i /want you back on that list/. but i will hold myself and you to that. ] #[ which means we're plotting in the near future and we're going to write. ] #[ and when we are; you're going back on it. ] #[ this currently only applies to tifa; as she is going to be (in the foreseeable future) the only muse i'll be writing/focusing on. ] #[ so do ignore all of my other pages. ] #[ hi guys-- welcome to my blog. my name is sae and i'm going to start holding myself to the same standard that i used to do. ] #[ here we go; right into 2023. /salutes. ]

Pay the fucking Genshin VAs wtf?? Like, they’re 1/2 the reason I like the game and the fact that Paimon’s VA (who has the most lines in the game BY FAR) hasn’t been paid in 6 months is ridiculous. In the meantime, does anyone know how we can help support Corina and Brandon until they get paid? 

#genshin impact #paimon #corina boettger #brandon winckler #like...wtf #also the amount of atrocious takes I've seen of people not wanting Paimon's VA to get paid because they don't like Paimon is just awful #Like?? Yeah I find the voice annoying too. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T WANT WORKERS TO BE FAIRLY COMPENSATED FOR THEIR WORK?? #imagine being such a dick that you think somebody who voices a character you don't like deserves to lose the wages they depend on to live #fortunately it seems that Hoyo is aware of the situation and claims to have urged the studios to pay the VAs what they've earned #but until then I'd like to know if there are ways to help the VAs affected

Besides isnt it sibling culture to beat the shit out of ur siblings

as someone with two brothers, I can confirm that siblinghood is all about hitting and biting and violence 🙏

#maybe not so much biting #since we're not eight anymore #but thor and loki deserve to bite each other #they've earned it 🙏 #look i have an ask

@creelsclocks gets: a somft modern take.

ᴛʜᴇ ʀᴇʜᴇᴀʀꜱᴀʟ ʀᴜɴɴɪɴɢ ʟᴀᴛᴇ is what finds Nancy at Henry's apartment door half-an hour past their agreed upon time. 

She'd sent a text as soon as she'd been free from the stage, coffee grabbed without a thought to serve as a tangible token of apology. While hers is accented by notes of vanilla and caramel, his is dark — a pure, high-quality brew with an aroma to die for.

❝ Hey, ❞ her smile is instantaneous, eyes lit up with joy as soon as his door opens. ❝ I'm sorry about being late — god, the director rode us hard tonight. ❞ There's a beat of silence, Nancy's gaze flitting to his mouth before she's holding out one of the warm beverages. ❝ —but I did pick up your favorite coffee on my way here, if you can ever forgive me. ❞ It's playful, the stress of the night dissipating faster as her fingers find his arm. ❝ So, what do you say — am I allowed in? ❞

It's so funny to me that my dad thinks that I'm this super spiteful, petty, vindictive person and yet when the perfect opportunity comes up to give him a taste of what I've had to go through because of him I choose not to

#about me #he has covid and it's Bad #and i've already been exposed to him enough that i'm masking up and taking care of him #but i've had to care for myself every time i've been sick and i had to be the one ten years ago who quit my job #to help look after my mom when she was really really sick #and that fucked me up a lot #bc i was 17 and i should not have been the one who had to handle it #and i know that i could choose to make him handle this alone and probably the only people who might blame me would be the family #who believe parents deserve respect whether or not they've earned it #but i'm not i'm choosing to take care of him and shit #and maybe part of that is bc i couldn't live with myself if i didn't do everything that i possibly could #like when it comes down to it. and idk it's just. Bad he's 64 years old with asthma and a heart condition #fully vaxxed but his last booster was like ten months ago #so anyways!!! things are going GREAT here

[coccinellaseptempunctata]

i need to be needed, i think

#because if they don't need me then what is left of me ? #if they've outgrown me what is even the point ? #i need a purpose i need it #because i'm a saint #i'm a martyr #i was born again for a reason #so if i don't fulfill that #if i'm not earning my place here #then i don't deserve to be here
