Summer Heat surpassed 100k words this chapter update! 🥳 The longest fic I've written is 115k (for another fandom over a decade ago) and I have a feeling this one will likely approach/surpass it. There are 3 planned chapters left and then the sequel - so who knows how long the story in true will be.
I haven't written a series like this before so I hope that I'm making the correct decision by starting a whole new story with the sequel instead of continuing in Summer Heat. Summer Heat was always meant to be contained to the week of the Summer Solstice Summit so expanding beyond it feels fitting to create a new story all together.
Anyways lots of big things on the horizon. In between the end of Summer Heat and starting the sequel I'm going to take a small break to work on some one shot ideas - for multiple ships. Maybe actually start tackling some of my ideas for Elucien and Eris weeks. And of course me and @crazy-ache are going to continue working on our collab story Dear Lucien, Dear Elain - which the response to has been so rewarding!!! I have a feeling this won't be the only story we collab on. 😉

jellicle lineups; part 3/4
Tumblr media
LETS GO PEOPLE!! LETS GO !! sorry for taking so long to get around to this one !
demeter | 🔒 🍰 🌇
DEETER
ive seen a lot of complaints about demeters design being toned down over the years so i decided to bring some of the bolder design choices back for mine. mullet demeter is REAL now ! honestly i couldve done more w/ their makeup but shhh its ok....
i tried to push the gold in their design by making the eyeshadow really obvious and giving them gold lips. enjoy their lacy dress too... i tried to design something which they could dance comfortably in
demeters newer 3 words (nervous, sensual, secretive) mean everything to me. love them so much. i think theyd be 29 in human years
bombalurina | 🌹 🍓 🛼
so i totally based her hair on that concept art for drag queen bomba. the bob is too cute ! i had a blast doing her design for the most part. i struggled w that makeup and the color of her dress but its ok.
i also tried to give her something she could dance in—just like. imagine the length of the dress a little shorter. im not going back and fixing it
i based her color palette/patterns directly on her concept art because tbh, i dont love blond/ginger bomba ! so black/white/red hair bomba it is
i think she would be 27 in human years
hysperia | 🪴 ⌚ 🍡
this is my version of exotica, renamed hysperia, because i do not love her og name. its not fun. the name hysperia is taken from an ensemble kitten character from the og london production
i also based her design on a multitude of things, asides from her 2 costumes in 98—like some nbq/greycat designs since i feel like that design not becoming a common ensemble character was a waste. A WASTE I TELL YOU! ive also based her fur length on warsaw victoria because oh my godddd that design is so good. peak
her neck bow is a nod to the 2019 movie... the macavity girls w/ those bow collars. they were onto something there
she would have a much more prominent role than the few times she cameo'd in 98, still retaining the elegant/shy personality she shows in the film. shed be 29 in human years
cassandra | 🪐 ♠️ 🥯
i originally made her makeup a lot closer to her replica designs but decided to go for something a little different based on a makeup look i saw on pinterest LOL. so like. enjoy her slight earthy gothic vibes. i also didnt struggled too much on her outfit since i came into this knowing that i wanted her to be wearing something formfitting and bejeweled. a little circus-y too
more people have got to play up her disdainfulness. she'd be 26 in human years
alonzo | 🎹 🍢 🎳
once again, another design pretty similar to his standard replica one. i just tried to make the black patch on his face a little greyer and with some white detailing. because tbh every alonzo with white mascara makes me go crazy its so cute
i also tried to make his head fur/bangs a little distinctive—inspired by a random pic from a production i dont know the name of
enjoy his little cute fit too. pinklonzo. pastelonzo
that one gif of him pantomiming eating a playing card IS canon to me. he'd be 28 in human years
munkustrap | 📼 🥧🎙
verrrry similar to standard replica munks makeup-wise ! however, fur wise.... say hi to mulletstrap. to manestrap. 2 me he is tuggers brother so he gets that. i have no justification for the mullet other than idk, looks good, is funny, and the oslo 1985 production was right to give him one. also he and demeter can match now
i do like when theyre seen as something of a prince... so say hi to the gothenburg and opera populaire-esque epaulettes. theyre cayoot. they also get warsaw munks Big Pant Vibes
give this man a break. hed be 30 in human years
macavity | 🔥 🥂 🎯
he was actually one of the first cats i made design notes for when i started hyperfixating on this musical like.... two months ago. i really tried to mix elements from a bunch of different designs 4 him.... and sorry yall hes a deut brother too. im predictable
the manginess, mane, more ginger-y head fur, tugger-ness and the mouth markings from the 2016 revival... the big big hair, white fur and general makeup from his replica design... and the stylings of il sistina mac with the fitted coat. he also gets unique eyelashes like tugger—this time white instead of gold. he also gets that ominous magic cat eye shading
i think he would act a lot like 2019 mac... suave. but also not as dorky and desperate as he is in that movie LOL. he'd be 33 in human years
ONLY ONE MORE LEFT..... THE OLDIES........ MAYBE... I MIGHT MAKE DESIGNS FOR SOME OF THE SWINGS TOO LOL

I am back again to complain about the lack of fan fiction for a character that I'm still hyperfixated on. Who's the lucky character? You may ask Jordan Li from Gen v. Now, I have read front to back every single Jordan Li fanfiction under the Jordan Li x reader tag. Can someone explain to me why it's always a character that I like that people don't really write for then write a lot for then stop writing for. It's like, dang yall move on so fast. And i'm pretty sure there's a lot of LiMoreau fics but I'm and xreader girly. And the crazy thing is, I didn't even like Jordan at first. But you all know how it is then TikTok, edits, they be making you fall in love rq. And it's so crazy how that happens. Because at first you'll be like they're mid. And then you'll see a bomb ass edit and you'll be like, 😮‍💨 *opens tumblr*.
Unlike my Hobie brown obsession, I'm not gonna beg for anyone to write. I'm just gonna ask for someone to add at least a little more fluff. Like, don't get me wrong. I like smut, but there's a little too much of it. It's kind of giving fetish🧐🫣. But I kinda get it their powers were hot when I first saw it, too.
Just a little rant. I'm tired of going to tag and seeing nothing rlly new man.

I mean absolutely no offense by this, I'm just curious, you seem to really like clowns. What is the appeal of them for you? A lot of people these days are afraid of clowns so it's different to see someone with a lot of clown oc's. Again, just curious!
No offense taken!
I actually have a post going into detail about it:
But to reiterate:
-I love their designs & aesthetic. I've never found them truly scary. I love bright colors and loud designs! And they can have such pretty, elaborate outfits.
-I love goofy, unhinged personalities. Absolute agents of chaos that just want to have fun, and challenge societal expectations.
-My gremlin self that enjoys scaring people does get a kick out of seeing them unnerve people. To an extent anyways. I genuinely feel bad if they look at my babies and go "Ugh gross creepy clowns ew" (though Roscoe would to some degree take it as a compliment, lmao)
-There's a lot of the Evil Killer Clown stereotype that I dislike. Mostly design-wise. I still love crazy kooks like Jevil, Kefka, Spinel, the original Pennywise, etc. I just don't like the ugly wrinkly-ballsack faces that killer clowns typically have, lmao. I do like the scarier aesthetic around Halloween time because I'm an adrenaline junkie with a fear kink, unnerving gives me the heebie-jeebies in the best way 👍
-All of this combined makes for very strong Ler potential. Big unhinged goofs that just want to make people laugh :3c

HAPPY 20th ─⊹⊱✰⊰⊹─ BAKI .! ↻ .! @TOUYYES
Tumblr media

Tumblr media
to my dearest princess, baki … 💌🧁🍓
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
TODAY IS YOUR DAYYY MAANNNN ITS OFFICIALLY BADDIE SEASON NOW THAT YOUR DAY HAS FINALLY COME 💋🦂 !! how you feeling?? hope you feeling good and your special day is good, well, and fun !! as if i literally don’t know what you're doing rn so ! even though we are a whole ass continent apart and im not able to give you a physical gift- i wanted to give you a lil' serenade and tell you some stuff, that's coming straight from the heart 🤍💕 (and coochie so if i say some fruitcake shit.… i did go in heat momentarily arrooo 🅰️🅱️🅾️)
it's not only your birthday today- BUT ! it also our one year anniversary!! (we not gon count those few months prior that we met, cuz im tryna be romantic and cute rn 🛌) - a WHOLEASS YEAR, LIKE ?? has time gone by incredibly fast, or is it just me? but with spending this past year with you, i've come to learn so much abt you ! whether that's the deep hyperfixation on things you'll periodically get n then get over, your love for the sea n swimming, or even down to the lil things that make up your personality!
in my eyes, you really are like a star ! so dazzling, bright, and the way you shine brings everyone in and makes them INSTANTLY attracted to you 💫 from your charm, to your outgoing and cool nature, and to how fucking hilarious you are. like istg i've literally never had anyone match the same energy as me, and deadass make my lungs clatter and collapse into my stomach from how hard i laugh 🐽💥 speaking of matching energy, man,, i cant even use certain emojis unironically no more cuz we ruined the meaning of them, with the dumbass lil emoji combos we came up with
it's crazy how i can't do certain things without thinking of you. literally rent free in my damn mind, and it's literally cuz we talk damn near everyday 🤕 like if i go even a full 24 hours without talking to you, it's very obvious that im sad n not in a good mood. bitch you literally have me in a chokehold and this shit doesn’t seem to be coming apart anytime soon 🧎🏽‍♀️🕳⛓ if you wanted someone who’s gonna be obsessed with you for the rest of your life, congratulations. cuz i don’t plan on ever letting you go, and you are MINE forever 😋🩸🪓 (possessive alpha mode grrr ruff ruff)
i could literally go on and brag about you for the rest of my life fr. like words can never truly express the amount of adoration and love i have for you. like i literally see MYSELF in you— that could be from us sharing so many common interests, or to the way we come up with crazy ass (delusions) headcanons of our bfs. you’ve become the biggest supporter and lover in my world ! even now with me recently starting to seriously write, you’ve had my back all the way through it. helping me proofread, giving me ideas n suggestions, and all around helping me feel confident n happy with my work !! 💗
i could never thank you enough, and express the full gratitude n appreciation i have for you. just YOU— n im so lucky that you’ve come into my life and made every day so much better. november gave me the best things,, it was the month you were brought into this world, and eventually the month that has made us as close as we are now ! 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩💕
baki, you are the light of my life. my partner in crime, my wifey and the twinkling little star that i always look forward to seeing. the stacy to my chellery, and actual love of my life. i love you so very much, and i can’t wait to celebrate our special month of november next year, the year after that, and the future years that i plan to spend with you 🤍 💍
HAAAPPPYY BIRRTHHDDAAYYY STAAYYCEE !!

tag game >:3
Tagged by @nerverack <3
Last song: Get Out by Faith No More
Currently watching: bf and I have been watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia as well as rewatching Clone High since the reboot season is over!
Currently reading: Monster High by Lisi Harrison. Seriously kind of an insane book, I'm liking it a lot more than I did when I was the target audience. A much different tone than the animated shorts or movies. There's an underlying racial tension between monsters and humans that's barely prevalent in the cartoon/movie series? The perspective also switches between Frankie and a human named Melody, which is pretty cool. Love her writing style, excited to finish the series!
Current obsession: My Trigun hyperfixation is sort of lingering in the background, and I guess Mike Patton/Faith No More in general has been on my mind a lot lately. Also getting back into QOTSA hella since I'm seeing them twice in September <3
if yall wanna play go crazy: @venomous-kitty @radtadtwevor @izaya0rihara @nerdalmighty

Hi there!! I was wondering if I could make a Top Gun ship request? (Hope I read your pinned post right and they’re still open whoops)
My name is Robin (any pronouns), and I’m terrible at describing myself but I’ll give it a go! I’d say I’m pretty outgoing, I really like talking to people and getting to know them. I’ve been told I seem like I know a lot of people, but I’m basically just friendly to everyone while only really having a handful of solid friends. I hope that makes sense ahsgdg. I used to be painfully shy but I’ve turned it around the past few years and learned to just go for it, it’s done wonders for my confidence. I love trying to make people laugh, my sense of humour is some mix of 12 year old boy and weird old woman. I’m from Scotland but I live in America, so my accent and tendency to swear too much stems mostly from my family and watching too much Billy Connolly as a kid lmao. Probably why I hate the heat as well. I’m constantly taking pictures and videos whenever I’m with friends, and I keep things like movie tickets in a sort of makeshift journal/sketchbook. I think I’ve got a fear of forgetting people and experiences, so I like documenting small moments. Apart from that I like anything storytelling based, so I’m into writing when I actually take the time to quit daydreaming. I love ‘kid’s’ media that have a darker slant to them, namely The Owl House, Over the Garden Wall, and Laika Studios movies. My hyperfixations change but right now I’m into Stranger Things, Top Gun, and Wes Anderson. As for hobbies, I’ve been playing bass for about 6 years, and I’ve been doing kickboxing and mma for almost a year. Music-wise I mostly like rock and punk leaning bands like Pinkshift and MCR (try before you deny), although I have a soft spot for Taylor Swift and ABBA in particular. My ideal date is probably something fun like a concert that we’d both enjoy, or going to see a late showing of some shitty movie and then making fun of it while walking back. Uhh my favourite colour is purple, favourite character in media is a tie between Kate Bishop and Inej Ghafa, and my favourite season is Autumn! Thanks for reading this (hope it wasn’t too ramble-y), hope you’re having a great day >:D
don't worry Robin, i really appreciate all the information you sent! it helps me narrow down the list of people i think you'd get along with a lot! also i totally relate to you on so many things it's crazy, you seem so cool!
anyways, i would ship you with rooster!
Tumblr media
i think bradley would adore you, your confidence, your sense of humour, and the music taste (yes he would learn your fave songs on the piano to play for you). going into more detail, i think rooster would love the concept of making a scrapbook or something of sorts to document memories together. he would also be so interested in your hobbies and would want to do them with you (i vividly imagined you knocking rooster on his ass while sparring sorry). also, the thought of you two going to a concert together is so cool, he would def be the type to pick you up on his shoulders so you can get a better view and take pics if you want! in conclusion, yall would be an adorable couple i'd love to see it.

The boys with Autistic! MC! part two ! SFW
(Bc I’m self indulgent and like 5 ppl wanted it so yesyesyes)
(Had my first proper spoonie day in a while today so imma finish this after what 4 months? Whoopsie. Sorry if any of the points overlap I’ve not re read my last post, please shoot me an ask if you want anything clarified/expanded on !)
Lucifer:
Has to stop his brothers from constantly bothering you when you’re overwhelmed (they’re just worried)
You very quickly learn his office is the safest place to be when overwhelmed due to the dim lighting and the brother deterring curse on his doorway
He has a record player and SO much classical music for when you need background noise
This leads to impromptu slow dancing when you insist he needs a break and there’s music playing
If you have your own records, the *smoother ones will end up mixed in with his
*smoother as in less staccato /distracting because he is most likely working
Very much enjoys spending time in silence with you, he finds it comfortng to just exist with someone without having anything needed of him
Especially if you’re both doing your own thing, like you just being in the room with him (playing a game or reading or smthn) while he does his paperwork is so soothing to him
Mammon:
Have you seen his horns? They’re so smooth and shinyyy, a+++ stimming material
He loves head pats so he’ll willingly put his head in your lap when you watch movies
he’s very proud of his demon form but also kind of shy so it’ll take some coaxing to get him to let you touch his horns but when he sees how content it makes you? It’s his new favourite hobby letting you play with his hair and horns during movies
(That said they’re very sensitive (like him) so be gentle)
He WILL adopt your love language and mannerisms:
if you bump people he will start knocking into you constantly, (wrists, hips, shoulders, head, any and all on random repeat)
if you like to collect and give things to people he will a. Hoard them in a little shrine (that he Denys. having) and b. Start looking for things he can give you back
If you rub textures you like you’ll find him stroking your arms/face/jumper right back (sometimes with his face, but only ever in private because he feels vulnerable using such a soft form of affection)
Levithian:
You cannot tell me this man isn’t autistic
Communication is SO! EASY!
Then even If you don’t understand you can just ask. You can just ask and he’ll tell you. None of this ‘figure it out yourself’ nt bullshit
Our baby has anxiety anyway so he’s probably ‘over’ explained it before you can say anything
(Over explained in the sense of nt, personally I love it when ppl get really detailed)
In that case he gets embarrassed about how much he’s talking so it’s your turn to reassure him that he’s not boring you
The solace you get in realising you like all of his autistic traits soothes your own insecurities
That being said your anxiety (if you have it) is matchy matchy so don’t expect him to talk to the cashier for you
He’s very chill with you being non verbal because either he’s absorbed in his own game/anime/show or it means there’s more room for him to talk about his interests
That being said if your special interests/ hyperfixations don’t line up on any given day? The bickering over who’s turn it is to infodump gets intense (this is the one source of all your arguments)
All the other brothers are kind of terrified/jealous of your relationship, especially when they see you talking about a shared special interest because you talk rapid fire and very in-depth. to them it’s almost like you’re talking in code or another language because they know all the individual words but what the everloving fuck are you on about
Asmodeus:
Has specific outfits he wears when he wants you to hug him (which is always). They’re made out of the softest material, or any clothing of his you’ve expressed a texture interest in.
Finds it so amusing when you come rushing over to rub your face against his chest bc mmmmm softsoftsoft
Likes to text you in the morning to see how you’re feeling (and how sensory sensitive you are because god forbid his outfit with chains and jangles stops him from seeing you)
Understands better than Anyone that affection and love can be shown in a whole barrage of ways not just physically
Figures out how you show affection faster than any of the other brothers
Immediately starts reciprocating it (partly bc he’s selfishly trying to make you love him most)
Satan:
Will learn about your special interests so he can engage you on the topic
Is the ONLY person in the house you can talk about any special interest with, no matter how niche because he loves learning (although he does prefer the *academic* side of them rather than pop culture but he will listen to both)
*academic* as in something involving learning about something or crafting or *how* to do something, not just like, maths
You’re pretty much the only person who can keep up with him in terms of knowledge and enthusiasm (even if it’s only for very specific things) and thus you become the person he talks to about his interests
Originally kind of annoyed by how absentminded you are (because you forget several dates) but once you get settled into a routine he starts to find it cute how habitual you are, and then realises it could work to his advantage.
He then schedules a date into your weekly routine (or biweekly depending on your energy levels) so you start to get upset if it’s missed bc it’s part of your routine. (Satan is ridiculously smart and is very much willing to manipulate your routine to his (and yours) advantage, he is a demon after all)
Beelzebub:
Gives the best squishes. He’s just so big he can literally envelope you (in other news he is terrified of hurting you so he’s very nervous at first, he’s used to huggin ppl very gently bc he is a muscle mountain)
Maybe don’t use chew stims around him (unless he’s eating) because seeing you use them will either make him hungry, or he’ll ask to see it and oops it’s been swallowed hope you didn’t want that back (he’s very apologetic he really didn’t mean to but it was in his mouth and chewed before he could think)
Literally the kindest man in the universe, if you have issues with shame or *guilt* (especially if it creeps outta nowhere or it relates to not being able to do something) he will a. Reassure you and give you cuddles until you feel okay (or one on one bonding time if you’re too touch sensitive) then b. Go help with whatever task was too much so you don’t have to worry
Belphagor:
Have I mentioned the stuffies? This boy definitely has a stash of soft toys that all have names and personalities. This originally stemmed from the fact he was locked alone in an attic for a year, he needed some form of company or he was gonna go crazy, and sleeping alone is meh in his opinion. But then he became attached and after you showed him yours? And you weren’t ashamed of your teddy bears or how much you loved them he confided in you about his. (And you had a tea party)
Problems sleeping ? (Me too bud it’s 3.44 am lol) nonononno baby boy has got you, just snuggle up to him and you’ll be snoozing in no time (I HC that being around belphagor just makes you a little sleepy and the longer you’re there the stronger the urge to sleep gets)
You’re at rad (or out in public and can’t leave) and get overstimmed? Belphie has got you! He keeps sunglasses on him so he can secretly sleep when he’s not supposed to. Also (imo) he’s the king of hoodies, both his main outfits have a hood (and you can’t convince me he doesn’t wear one of them over his uniform as soon as lucifer dips), my boy will slip his hoodie on you and wrap you in a hug to get you away from the noise/sights
(I am now too tired to write anymore, hope yall enjoyed!)

i think season three is good, but there are a few things about it that absolutely enrage me to an overdramatic amount, and here i shall list them lol. also this will be in more than one ask because i have too many thoughts. ok, the first is how hopper went from trying his best to threatening children, having that "girls can't choose who they date they aren't smart" mindset, gaslighting Joyce/not believing her when she has basically always been correct, and tricking her into a date?? 1/? lol
next, i hate how they went "here, take billy's sad childhood and him saving el and forgive his racist actions! go! FETCH!" and we were supposed to be like "yayyy! what a nice guy!!!" you know? like... a sad childhood isn't redemption? it may vaguely explain things, but not excuse them? i also was disappointed with el and max's friendship being based off them being mean to their (admittedly mediocre) boyfriends? like- yall are in 8th grade dating sucks why are we being mean just communicate? 2/?
and it felt like max and el's friendship was supposed to come of as this "wow FEMINISM!" thing, and it really wasn't at all? i mean i could totally see kids perceiving this "girls rule boys drool" thing as empowering, but i just wish that if they are going to go the whole (adorable) "sleepovers, wonder woman, shopping, normal, not-supernaturalish (if that makes sense)" female friendship, they didn't base it on... well... men?
(i'm sorry i'm saying so much lol) they are also setting up problems for character development and writing. if they continue to add characters for no reason, characters are going to keep loosing purpose because there are less roles to fill than actual characters. Admittedly, the characters they add for seemingly no reason are usually so fun that i end up shutting my mouth and taking back my complaint? like max, robin, erica, not you billy, alexi, heather, etc. 4/? (i'm so sorry i'm hyperfixated)
and don'T EVEN GET ME STARTED (lmao i've clearly started) ON THE RUSSIAN STUFF?! LIKE WHAT!??!? WHO IS THIS TERMINATOR BITCH AND WHY WAS ~HE~ THE ONE TO KILL OF A NEW LOVABLE SIDE CHARACTER??? AND WHY IS HOPPER RECKLESSLY KILLING??? (sorry i am yelling the anger is not at you, you seem lovley) LIKE WHAT?!? tHIS TOXIC MASCULINITY HOPPER CRAP NEEDS TO CEASE PLEASE, I BEG. anyway there was no point to making the terminator guy other than a reference. ok i think i'm done?? thanks for listening lol.
so i’m gonna be honest man the only thing i agree with you on is that the way they handled billy was bullshit. i wholeheartedly disagree with all the rest but i’m very glad you got it all off your chest kjdcnmnd like. i’m gonna share my thoughts on some of this and i REALLY don’t mean to be rude i just like talking about stranger things so please don’t take this as me trying to argue or whatever bc that is not my intention!!
so i don’t think hopper having a problem with el and mike has anything to do with him thinking el isn’t smart or that she can’t make her own decisions. el’s a kid, and she’s only been allowed to be a kid for like... two years, max? he’s worried that she’s growing up too fast, mourning the inevitable end of her childhood which has just barely begun, and yeah, he’s overprotective, too, but he’s pretty clearly painted as being in the wrong for how he handled things. he changed his ways by the end of the season, and through the speech he wrote it’s clear that his issues stemmed from his own fears of her growing up, not from him thinking she was stupid. change isn’t typically sudden or easy, and i really do think that hopper was trying his best at the start of s3 (he lets el hang out with her friends as much as she wants, trusts her to roam freely and keep herself safe, etc). he just still had a little way to go.
i also don’t personally see how hopper “tricked” joyce into a date when she agreed to go and then didn’t show up. joyce is an adult, and she was perfectly capable of telling hopper no (she actually did tell him no once, and then didn’t object later). he was never threatening or manipulative to her. he was a total bitch after he got stood up, and they did overdo it, but he most certainly wasn’t gaslighting her. he genuinely didn’t think that there was something going on! he thought she was paranoid due to her trauma, trauma that he personally has been through and is sympathetic to. he still helped her check things out, even when he didn’t think there was a real problem, because he wanted to give her peace of mind. while you can argue he was dumb or disrespectful not to believe her, he didn’t have any intention of making joyce feel crazy or of deceiving her.
and the reason that the kids aren’t communicating well in s3 is because they’re... well, kids. have you ever seen an eighth-grade relationship where both parties communicate maturely about their problems? if they were older i would agree that the conflict was dumb, but it makes perfect sense for kids their age. i also don’t really have an issue (personally) with how the elmax friendship started. the whole point is that el came to max asking for dating advice, and max shows el that she doesn’t have to revolve her whole life around her boyfriend, she can develop her own identity and be her own person.
a lot of people in the fandom share your trepidation about adding new characters, so i’m definitely outnumbered here, but i don’t personally have a problem with it at all. i think alexei could have been better-utilized, but his existence didn’t interfere or detract from anything with existing characters. in fact, i think he gave murray some more development and allowed for more dynamic interactions between joyce and hopper. max and robin were both “new characters,” and i’m not being hyperbolic when i say they’re two of the best-written and best-acted characters in the show. when i go back and watch s1 now, things just feel wrong without max, and robin is a revelation. i think that adding new characters makes the world of stranger things feel more organic and allows for the stakes to remain somewhat high without making the writers feel like they have to kill off one of our beloved OGs. 
russian terminator... yeah you’re right that shit was weird as fuck. i don’t think hopper killing the dudes down in the base was “toxic masculinity” or anything though like he’s a veteran and the guys he killed were all soldiers and he was just trying to get to the gate to shut it down no matter the cost, yknow? it was a matter of life and death, and with a giant monster trying to kill his daughter i think him killing anyone in the way of him preventing that is kind of... fair. but yeah i don’t really get the point of terminator guy like it was so fucking weird sdknckdnm
thanks for the asks!!! the fandom’s been kinda dead lately and it’s so fun to still be able to talk about st!!

How early in life do you realise you're interested in botany and want to be a botanist? I found your interest in it somewhat endearing to watch. - Love from Borneo...
omg to get this ask right after publishing that ask about stealing wisconsin fast plants in the 6th grade.... i know ive told this story before but its been a while since my last ‘how did i get into this’ ask so:
okay. always knew i wanted to get into biology. was dinosaur/paleontology kid, then veterinarian kid, then zoology-but-not-too-passionate-about-anything-but-wolves-kid, and then it was in like, early high school and they sent out this thing about an opportunity for unpaid internships through the local community college. like. ‘help out the community/check out various job opportunities’ type stuff. at this point i kind of half-heartedly told people i wanted to be a pharmacist and that was my vague future plan, but for this they had us pick 3 options and one of the openings was for a person to help at a family-run retail greenhouse in town. got the internship. cool. 
i mostly did manual labor around the greenhouse, but i also got taken behind the scenes where they showed me like, how they get these plants from corporations. the dude who ran the greenhouse showed me the catalogs they got from these giant companies and showed me seeds in test tubes sent to them and all this stuff, and plants started to unfold for me as a science. like. these companies were doing jurassic-park type stuff with these plants. it occured to me that the plants that were being sold were literally created to look pretty for us, or to grow big fruits and vegetables, etc etc, and it was like...it kind of freaked me out. this was also a little after when USDA APHIS and several related international government plant regulation branches found out about a ton of GMO petunias that were being sold to the public without the proper testing and documentation by several large seed companies; they let the retailers keep them, but ordered the companies to literally incinerate, bury, or destroy any and all illegal seed and plant matter. 
this was very fucked up, so of course i was fascinated and i started seeing plants as a whole in a very different way. i’d come home every day and tell my parents about whatever crazy shit i learned, which they got tired of pretty quickly, but i wasn’t stopping there. i wanted more plant information. i built a big wooden tray thing and started growing random plants in my room, not really with any sort of scientific goal aside from watching them and wondering about... whatever. eventually, this kind of general hyperfixation made me generate the question of whether or not plants generated heat, which i googled and was not satisfied at the answers for: they can, and plants that can are called thermogenic plants, but none of the pop science articles i read could explain exactly how it worked, and like, i was in it to see all the details, baybee, and i ended up reading scientific journal articles with absolutely no idea of how scientific journal articles are set up, how to read them, or what any of it meant. and i loved it. 
so that was my first dive into that, and it was around that time that i started this blog to contain my ongoing passion to stop boring my parents, and then i just...well i did more stuff and worked some other plant jobs that i’ve talked about before on here, some which involve more wild stuff than others, but long story short, that was how i ended up accidentally stumbling into this interest/career path via the very specific question of how plants that heat up Do That Thing. 
also: borneo! yall have some fantastic pitcher plants. some absolutely amazing carnivorous lads. like, congrats

tell us abt your new crush!! 👀 id like to hear ab him
WAIT I HAVE A NEW CRUSH 😳 im not sure if yall are talkin ab xanxus but i literally went crazy for an hour last night, then passed out. I didnt check the posts i made bc im afraid to ♡ every few months to a year, ill get a Singular Xanxus Thought and look through his tag on tumblr and feel my body go through rewind time.
Xanxus was actually...the reason why i made my original self ship account which must ive been around 2017/18! It was basically centered around my ship w/ him but I never talked about it bc i didnt know that was a thing I could do? Shortly after - the blog was Dante Centric bc DMC Brainrot
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's a fucking demon (not literally but wouldnt be surprised either). He's cruel, aggressive, and bitter. He reminds me of the 'it dont bite' vine but he immediately gets your ass. Ngl, he kinda reminds me of Slick. Letting out a very loud mental sigh :/ I have a type and it's coming back n biting me in the ass.
Both are crime men mafia boys, scarred, and missing an arm? They're pretty quiet for the most part n rather speak through actions; if they threaten to do something, they have no issues go through w/ it.
I can not get away from the grittiness that these terrible men bring.
Unlike my Current Hyperfix F/O, he's never nice, ever. No soft moments in canon or its REALLY discreet/youll have to squint and draw your own conclusions. He does mellow out in the future which is actually nice! I'm sure he's still resentful and brutal as hell but he's more willing to work with the Vongola and says that they're family so i just OTL mwah. this is growth.
His pre timeskip self techinally? has a 16 year old mentality bc the mf said mannequin challenge for 5+ years after being put in Ice Prison Timeout. And when he came back he said fuck my dad all my homies hate my dad. went to Japan. fought a 15 year old. Lost. and the rest is history. (theres more but its whack bc timeskip shit. its not complicated im just 🥴)

New Episode Liveblog
Disclaimer: The owner of this blog loves all the sides and will not post hate on any of them. I may not love every opinion or decision that said character makes but that is because no character is perfect. I Stan Everyone.  Thank you. 
Thinking about responding honestly, but quickly deleting it, thats relatable  repression baby!

Roman are you okay? Did you get your house filled with feral cats? Roman? You alright there? ROMAN?
“Those baby making catholics” fgghkhk Roman I love youuuuu
Patton really do be bringing out the logic in this one huh, is this ep about empathy? Sounds very empathy-ish
Foresight seems to be the focus so far, but I don’t think that’ll carry through the whole ep
“Hes a jolly good fellow!” jdkhkgfhkhg
Oop, we’re back to the good person dialema (he made the “good” decision tho??)
Roman’s insults gfkhgkhk stOP youre supposed to be this mANS CONFIDENCE OH NOOOOO

Is it just me or does Roman’s voice just sound a bit different this ep? 
Oh yeah, its all coming together 
Roman is like “please do not assault the actor for the hotdog, thank you.” 
OOP- ThEres the double standard!!!
LOGAN!!!
Roman clicking the Ignorant button and Logan looking just so done ugggh I missed our boys bickering in the last episode
.... jesus christ super star :((((
Roman reading Logan’s little fact for him is super cute 
I think its okay to do a good thing because it makes you happy because if youre happy that good things are being done than that makes you good (sorry, thats pretty much incomprehensible) 
Patton’s trying so hard to not push his opinions, but he needs to realize said opinions arent set in stone 
yeeaaebeahab- go- Patton, I hope you know you are the cutest
Yall know Im a Patton kinnie, but I agree with Roman (maybe thats the therapy talking)
Hey this is really wholesome actually! We love Patton and Thomas trying to give Roman an open and supportive enviroment to express his opinions on the matter
Oh hey! The music is 8-bit Deceit’s theme!
You can get the reward while still caring, gosh this one’s so good because I agree with each character’s points ahhhh!
I agree with Thomas, they’re different scenarios. 
Thomas: Am I not allowed to feel good for doing something good? Logan’s little box: 0.0 Oop-
Yeah, I thought this ep was going to about empathy 
OH I HATE THIS SCENARIO I HATE THE TROLLEY THING AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 
I cant read Logan’s little facts while also listening hElp-
The T word gfhjlkjlghg
Oh no! Logan’s box goes crazy I cant read all that!
RIP Logan’s box, you will be missed but only a little bit.
Also, I love how calm this argument is, I was really worried for this ep because I didnt want Roman and Patton to be mad at one another but they’re both handling it so well, hense Roman helping Patton with the little box
klghkljlkg he has become the mustache 
Oh no! Logan! Patton, NO!
Yeah, the pity thing was kind of confusing
ROMAN BBY NOOO
Roman: I have been doing a bad job Thomas & Patton: STFU TOP TEN REASONS WHY YOU ARE WRONG NUMBER ONE I LOVE YOU

AHHHHHHH WHEN HE SHOT AT DECEIT HE JUST HIT THOMAS NONONONO 
Oh? Patton agreeing with Deceit? This is very good.
Oh hey, these are the characters from one of the vines he made 
“oh, Logan I-” “PETER SINGER IS AN AUSTRAILIAN-” 
Wow, today’s episode really keeps saying Loceit and Royality rights, huh?

6 Random Facts
Rules: List 6 random facts about yourself and then pass it on to your 10 favorite followers!
i was tagged by the lovely @the-lincyclopedia (thank you so much dear) and im excited to throw 6 random ass facts about myself out here for yall to learn :D
1. i work live in a haunted house for every weekend in october plus halloween. it is one of The best choices i have ever made for myself. this october will be the third year i’ve worked in the top scariest haunted house in my state and i CANNOT fucking wait for this years haunt season. the people i work with become my family for the month and they’re all so weird and wonderful and crazy and i love them so much. i have tons and tons of stories, of course, and its also just really fun to scare the shit out of people :D
2. i go to A LOT of concerts. like??? all of my money goes to concert tickets. it doesn’t help that i live in a city with a lot of really cool concert venues so tons of artists i love pick my city as a tour spot. i think my top 5 favorite concerts that i’ve been to were billie eilish, hayley kiyoko, troye sivan, ajr, and king princess. my dad and i are huge concert people and i’ve basically gone to almost every concert with him
3. i’ve met some pretty cool people from going to concerts/comicon but my two favorite people that i’ve met have to be millie bobby brown and hayley kiyoko. millie was super nice and sweet and it was very cool to meet her in person and when i met hayley i forgot my name for 3 seconds which was so Iconic of me and she complimented the headband i was wearing so i now i refer to that headband as being blessed by Lesbian Jesus anytime someone mentions it
4. when i was 12 i got SUPER into making rainbow loom bracelets (yall already know) especially in the colors of my city’s professional NFL team because my whole family are really big fans so i decided to be an Enterprising Bitch and i started charging my friends and family members 2 dollars for these rainbow loom bracelets and i was kind of making Bank for like,,, a second. anyways because of the connections my aunt had and because saying no to an innocent 12 year old making blue and green bracelets is hard to do, there was a very brief week where a bunch of famous and professional football players were wearing my shitty ass rainbow loom bracelets. and they fuckin PAID me two dollars a piece for those bad boys and to do this day i still think that’s SO funny
5. i’ve recently started hyperfixating on rats for some reason????? hHOLY SHIT i just love rats SO much all of a sudden. like i saw a rat and a baby rat run out from the shed i have in my backyard and i got so happy i almost cried like i could not stop talking about them i was just ‘rats!!!!!! a rat!!!!! baby!!!!’ like my favorite musician??? neil the rat who’s always banging out those tunes. i just LOVE rats okay?!??!?! 
6. okay so UH um (i can’t believe im actually typing this but i couldn’t think of anything else interesting enough to post) so um like over a year ago????? i um wrote a particularly,,,,,,odd carry on fanfiction. it was um a cars au?????? yeah like the pixar movie cars???? yeah. it um starred the characters Simon Tow Mater and Lightning McBaz and oh my god you have to know that it is so cursed and bad and i was put up to it and i actually did it, surprising everyone including myself. but also i spent a solid like 5 hours on it and um put a LOT of thought into the characterization of everyone as cars and uh yeah im a terrible person. i’m lucky only a few people have ever read it and i sincerely pity those few people 
okay this is SO long but uh yeah it was fun!!!!! now for the tagging: @bazypitchandsimonsnow  @luzain @lifeasafail @myliterarylesbianmothers @milo-fanarts @absolute-nightmare @rhynixx @lotus-of-light @hekissesme @pixiecodesnowbaz
