#sort of rant

Just because you do or don’t like a ship doesn’t mean you can try to force those opinions on others, and some people STILL can’t understand that somehow,,

(If you are not comfortable with nsfw topics then ignore this)

I'm a fucking Tomboy, dumbass.

My dad got me into D&D, my husband into Warhammer, and my brother-in-law into miniatures. I was always a gamer though, since I was about 6 years old. (I just got a new-ish Sega Genesis after all these years, I am So pumped to play Sonic 2 again~)

First of all, I have never desired attention from the opposite sex. I'm a Sex Repulsed Ace woman.

Second off all, can you really be called a "Pick Me," when you've already been picked for a Decade at this point? XD

Hey Rando, I'm a Married woman. I even mentioned it in my comment. Why the fuck would I want attention from someone who is Not my Husband? This is like one step below outright calling me a Whore just because I'm a woman. With no proof at all.

for example i showed my mum a haircut i wanted to get and she said ‘wow that looks awesome!!’ and it made me feel good about my decision. and i was in a situation today where i had to remind her about it. and she said “did you not catch my sarcasm…?”

full story is in late 2024 i was recommended a bunch of kpop by my friends because i wanted to know their favorite groups and songs right

i listened to skz, i-dle, everglow, enhypen, lsrf, aespa, and ateez songs

and i basically only listened to a few title tracks and then in 2025 i got a lot more invested in the group because why wouldn't i. i thought they were interesting and cool as hell

golden hour part 3 came out and i was absolutely thrilled at the new song and album. and then was fucking FLOORED by in your fantasy. like i knew they has songs like that but nothing like that song.

and now i am an atiny that jumps at every opportunity to reference and talk about ateez because i'm a little crazy.

so back to presentation night, i cannot wait for when we decide on a day to do it because i was told that they should each be between 30-40 or 50 minutes i dont fully remember, and it's like four of us so i feel a lot less scared.

i am way too excited about even the concept of this presentation night and getting to talk about one of my favorite groups ever (probably my current favorite) without getting judged hopefully. they all know about my kpop interests and one of them has been my best friend for like 9 years. (you know who you are if you see this post) so they should understand

planned things im talking about:

briefly their origins and kq

all of the members and some of their achievements (coachella, song and album awards)

members section will be 16 slides alone because i want to have one for each member that's their info and stuff and another that is a photo collage so that is why

albums and music videos (planning on getting them to choose which ones to watch out of some options which will be on the slides)

lore a bit

I'm writing something for the show currently and... I have a few (probably incoherent) thoughts. I've always had thoughts on this topic, but now it's more clear because I'm writing a scene showing exactly what happens on the "other side" for vampires before they return to their body. If that makes sense? Because vampires in Being Human see the men with sticks and rope before actually reanimating and becoming vampires. They die, they pop into purgatory/spirit world, and then they're sucked back into real world.

I think the show was quite vague with the men with sticks and rope -- a character/concept which has always been one of my favourites and is a standout for sure. Initially, I favoured the vagueness. It made things more... daunting, to think of them all on your own (especially if I'm to believe that Mitchell shaking his head at Annie when George asks about the other side is about them and how scary they are). BUT after their appearance in Season 5 and now that I'm writing them... I have more thoughts.

I wish the look of them had been scarier and less... not less human, but less normal and personable? I get that Hatch (I kinda refuse to call him the Devil) was controlling them and they were in the real world, but I wish they hadn't spoke to Alex or wasted time by pinning her against the wall. They should've just started dragging her towards the door.

I think the fact that we didn't actually see what the vampires went through is a crime. They saw the men with sticks and ropes, but did the men with sticks and rope know that those "ghosts" were going to be put back in their bodies? Or are they not put back in their bodies at all and are actually taken? Is your spirit form the same as your soul? Because according to Hal and what he said about Old Nick's wink, vampires' souls belong to the Devil, which could mean they're reanimated without a soul. But I refuse to agree with that because despite everything that vampires do, especially Mitchell and Hal, they are capable of love and being human.

In that same sense, are the men with sticks and rope equally aggressive with every "unclaimed" spirit, or is that reserved for Annie and Alex, who were seemingly special circumstances? I'd like to believe the men with sticks and rope are cruel bastards, to be honest, who revel in dragging spirits (actual spirits or to-become-a-vampire spirits) through the door, regardless.
