Fandoms changes at the speed of light. Also i am very very much not normal about my universes, if I can rant on them I'll do so at every occasion. // Technoblade never dies // She/they pronouns and gender is fake // trophy gf // pfp by sad-ist
The mandatory presentation (and a place to keep all my current tags)
So, it is I, Hel Phoenyx. You'll see my partners, friends and metamours calling me by my real name but if we are not well acquainted please don't. This is making me uncomfy.
I'm a 2000. It will be better than to update my age. So both on the old and young part, and I get either the best or the worst of both worlds-
Currently in a big-ass polycule that are worth mentionning here because I flirt, laugh with them or callout them quite regularly.
I have one sideblog, @creator-from-hel, where I keep all my art and only my art (and this is mostly with this account that I interact with reblogs of said art). Other than that, everything is a complete shithole and my tags are not enough to track down my content.
I use #hel is talking for my rambles, #hel got asks for my asks, #hel ocs for when I ramble about Emerens talk about my babies, #hel stories for when I talk about my universes, #hel's writer life when I rant about being a writer, #hel writing for my lil texts, and #hel polls when I make polls (that doesn't happen often).
Fandoms and things I post and reblog about under the cut :
My interests (what you're here for I presume)
As for my interests, the only thing not going away after a few weeks are my own creations. So that's also the only thing I tag.
Currently I have three fully fledged universes, one my own only and two shared with my friends.
For a quick little presentation :
We got Lysara IbRu'Aël, Azilis' Chronicles and La Peste Moderne.
Lysara IbRu'Ael is a fantasy saga stemmed from the deepest darkest dephts of Wattpad. Originally created with four people (me, @azeler and two other people I don't have the tumblr) it evolved until the Almighty Gf, @thal-ent and some other people that I do not go out with joined, and that's when we started truly writing the saga. Only one left active on that group are currently me, Az, Thal and the gf. The metamours came here later to do ttrpg campaigns in the universe or help us expand on the lore.
End with the creation story, let's start with the story : Lysara is a fantasy world heavily litterature-based where gods are Words and Words shape the world. The main saga follows my character Lina Frosilaen through an epic quest (several, in fact) but Lysara as a whole is a complete universe with LOADS of lore.
Next, Azilis Chronicles, is my personal trilogy. Its roots are very close from Lysara but Azilis took a whole other direction in terms of lore and construction of the world, so even if the characters are the same, fundamentally they are not.
It's still a fantasy world tho, with the same core principles as Lysara, but less litterature-based and more developped in the direction I would have taken Lysara, would I be the only one behind it.
And lastly my second shared universe with the partners, the metamours and LOTS of friends, a heavily-Danganronpa-inspired real world setting named La Peste Moderne !
To put the basis, La Peste Moderne is a world where geniuses are more and more common. But geniuses are also afflicted with a disease that nobody can comprehend, powerful enough to make them aggressive and push the world towards its end : Despair.
To counter that, the Japanese gouvernment had an idea (there is more lore behind it but no spoilers) : Organize each year experimental killing games, where sixteen geniuses are forced to kill each other and navigate through an incredibly hostile setting. This would allow to control the population of geniuses, and see how they react to Despair to at the end of it, give a solution against the world ending.
My stories in there are Le Bal des Pantins, The Art of Creating Hope and Abyss of Despair, but I also had involvment in three others as of right now.
Tags are #lysara for anything Lysara-related, #azilis chronicles for the Chronicles and #la peste moderne for everything that falls under La Peste Moderne. in there I have specific tags for my three stories but they're kind of irrelevant.
As for the rest... I am a ttrpg player, enjoy a lot of video games, is very into Pokemon Black and White, was an avid reader but now is more of an avid writer, and my fandoms can vary a lot so I don't tag them.

Tech companies have discovered a new anti-pattern recently and its called violating your muscle memory by putting links to shitty features nobody likes where the most commonly used button used to be
An ad popping up a few seconds after everything else has loaded, pushing everything downwards and moving itself precisely into the spot you were just in the process of clicking.
❝ Person A is an artist. Although Person A learns from ChatGPT to help them improve their skills.
Person A does NOT ask ChatGPT to create art for them. They draw and paint their art themself from start to finish, but they often screenshot their WIPs and send them to ChatGPT to ask the AI for advices and how they can improve their art.❞
Do you think Person A's art is considered human-made?
Yes. It's still human-made because Person A actually creates the art themself
No. It's not human-made because Person A asks for advices from AI

hey white people . if u dont know how to pronounce an ethnic persons name *google it* or if its someone ur talking directly to *ask them*. dont fucking do that "erm i dont know how to pronounce but __" or "im gonna butcher this haha" or "im not even gonna bother trying" . ur not funny. do u know what poc think when they hear u saying that ? u sound like a loser asshole and we dont want to spend time with u . im so fucking tired of watching youtube videos about media from my country and hearing those phrases. im tired of people saying that to my face . i respect someone who clearly looked it up and is tryong but says my name wrong over someone who just goes with whatever bad first guess they had without trying. u have too many resources at ur disposal to keep doing this. for the love of god just Fucking Try. if ur confused Just Try.
I highly recommend Forvo.com, the website where native speakers of a language contribute their time and voices to read words and names in their own language. It is a fantastic way to expand your world, open up your ears, and it's way more likely to nab a hit than just googling.

rewatching Avatar is so weird because Sokka is literally the only thing keeping them alive and fed. He constantly is like,
'guys we're out of supplies/ we need to stop/ we're attracting too much attention with the flying bison we should walk' etc.
Like in the ´The Storm' when they're completely out of money and supplies the one to get a job in hopes of making money (he never actually gets paid, the world hates him) is Sokka.
In 'The Waterbending Scroll,' it's Sokka who's concerned about their lack of supplies when Aang sends them in a wave down the river, and is making sure they're careful with their spendibg when in town shopping.
He's also seen to catch fish and gather nuts (I know more often than not he fails to catch things on screen but it's implied he's the one that does most of the hunting and gathering)
It's like- Aang totally would have starved to death or gotten completely off track with often they're completely out of food and money
And this is going to make a lot of people very angry to hear.
But a lot of y'all on this website are truly deeply genuinely never going to be capable of any kind of real narrative analysis--and I don't mean 'being right all the time' I mean 'meaningfully engaging with the text in any way'--
Because you are, fundamentally, incapable of comprehending that writers usually do things on purpose.
The match cuts were meticulously designed and put there to communicate something.
The VA's delivery of a line was being directed. Inflection and tone change the meaning of dialogue. This is intentional. There are entire teams of people shaping those choices and deciding which take to use based on what works best for the story.
Information is being revealed in a specific order, on purpose, to craft an emotional arc and guide the audience's understanding.
A character's romantic preferences are only, and SHOULD only be, their primary motivation if the genre is romance. That is why there is a genre called that. Most stories are other genres.
Creators who dislike a character generally give them LESS attention, MORE boring storylines, and LESS screentime.
Sometimes curtains are just blue. But if the shot composition or written narration takes time to HIGHLIGHT, especially more than once, that the curtains are blue, then the blueness of the curtains is by definition narratively important.
"Cite your sources" is not a witch's curse that banishes People With Different Opinions to the shadowrealm of Being Wrong. Someone making points that challenge your perceptions, while including screenshots and explicit examples, cannot be dismissed with "cite your sources" because they are literally doing that. Don't @ me on this one I've seen shit in the wars, y'all.
Failing to understand these things WILL bar you from ever really engaging with or understanding any narrative more complicated than Paw Patrol for the rest of your life.
This post is fantastic. The notes are truly incredible.
OP: you guys are never going to be able to meaningfully engage with story and character analysis if you cant understand or aren't willing to even consider the context within writers create their stories and the intention behind characters actions and motivations, which are intentional and complex. Not everything begins and ends with romance and relationships, in fact most stories outside of the romance genre feature more complex themes and motivations than straightforward romance and romantic love. Sorry if that makes you mad.
Everyone in the notes: ... I am overwhelmed with fury over this ridiculous and incomprehensible statement, how dare you. Many genres focus on romance, have you never watched a movie? There is always romance. Why would you say only the romance genre should include romance. I will not engage any further with what you said or consider additional context.
Shout-out to the person who said that romance is the primary motivation of many characters outside of the romance genre, and the example that they gave for this was.... Glenn Close, in Fatal Attraction.
.... you know I do think there may have been something more significant than romantic attraction motivating this character, who is a violent obsessive stalker. In fact, it could be something a little more... fatal?
Part of me wonders what they thought of the movie Obsession, but mostly I am too afraid to ask.
