Ok I want to know something

how often do you talk with the mutual you speak the most to?

every day

several times a week

once a week

once a month

less than that

i'm too much of a coward to talk to my mutuals

also if you want to please add in the tags whether you've met in person and whether you live in the same country

#lmao every day for over a decade #when we met we did not live in the same country #now we live in the same house

I hope every writer who sees this writes LOADS the next few months. Like freetime opens up, no writers block, the ability to focus, etc etc you're able to write loads & make lots of progress <3

#and NOTHING BAD HAPPENING #not the kind of desperate writing you're doing to escape real life things you can't change #but just nice chill free time and inspiration and motivation #and NOTHING BAD AT ALL NOT ONE SINGLE THING #this post makes me so anxious lmao #i hope you all get this and i hope it's FUN AND NICE AND CHILL AND BRINGS YOU JOY #apparently this is the thing i'm superstitious about

anyway lately I've been thinking about the way fandom largely handles characters who are caretakers and protectors

because receiving care and help and selfless attention is considered desirable, and often the rightful due of the fandom/personal fave (because of whatever past trauma or horrors or lack of self-worth they're struggling with)

but apparently the characters that do the caretaking do not deserve interiority or agency, they're not interesting in their own right, their only function is to be there to dispense support and adoration for the fave

I don't want to totally flatten this to a gender issue, because there are other facets to it, but sometimes I want to ask: is there a particular reason fandom is uninterested in the perspectives of characters that do the helping/supporting/caretaking, and instead almost exclusively prefers the point of view of the recipient? and might it have something to do with the largely female coding of caretaking work (which is often devalued and difficult and poorly compensated in real life)?

though, also: doing this with two male characters doesn't remove the essential problem that only one of these characters is afforded real consideration as a (fictional) person

junemermaid

actually my tags are also relevant:

#and it's not a universal issue of course but I keep running into it#if we talk about the consequences of trauma and damage#then why don't we care about the way they splash onto loved ones and helpers also#why is a person that does the nursing less valuable than the one nursed#something there to chew on#and yes I'm sometimes angry about this too#but if I can't identify the problem I can't begin to solve it#I love recovery stories but this is one thing that keeps me from enjoying them#especially if they're paired with romance#and yes I understand that receiving care is the fantasy/comfort for a number of people#needing help is not the issue here#it's the way caretaker characters are flattened to their relevance to the personal fave#because god forbid they ever have needs or thoughts of their own

#fandom's willingness to turn their blorbo into god's most special and beloved boy #and turn every other character into god's most beloved boy's servile underlings who should be grateful to be permitted in his presence #is... hm. telling.#and also bad lol #god's most beloved boy is already the centrepiece of the show 99% of the time! he's already used to only doing the fun dramatic things!#MAKE HIM WORK FOR SOMETHING FOR A FUCKING CHANGE #sorry sorry make him with for something *other* than just being the hero of the whole world forever and ever amen #anyhow i'm fine and normal about this #'uhm it's about the fantasy of being taken care of?'#like... be serious.#part one: your fantasy involves being taken care of by a bunch of people who have no selves or lives outside of being Dedicated To You?#they never ever get mad at you or ask you for anything or hurt your feelings or do anything that might displease you?#that's sort of less about being taken care of and more about being the only person who's allowed to matter #which is...unflattering #and maybe something you should talk to a therapist about #part two: sorry but i fundamentally do not believe that most people in fandom on tumblr dot com are in desperate need of caretaking #being ~forced~ to babysit your siblings when you were fourteen doesn't actually mean that you were robbed of a childhood #there's a lot of like... oh i'm so so so self sacrificing and it's Expected of me and i am put upon and burdened #and in most situations it's like… that's a choice you're making and you should stop making it if it doesn't bring you joy #learn to disappoint your parents! it's ok not to be a nepo hire at lockheed martin! the world won't end if you personally don't save it!#sry but you are the horrible goose and you are chasing your own fool self. get a grip.

月鳞绮纪 ∣ VEIL OF SHADOWS ❍؛༊ °I have to go now too

#i fucking loved this #it was genuinely just like. suddenly crushing. i loved it!#i keep seeing comments from people watching it and complaining that they don't know who the good guys are #and so don't know who they're meant to be rooting for #and i'm like #no no no that's why it's fun!! that's why it's good #please #that's what makes it interesting 😭#anyhow i thought this was a delightful twist of things #veil of shadows #yuan wuhuo

I am going to clarify that when I say "if your romantic pair would have no appeal as a platonic duo, they're going to fall flat", I'm not necessarily saying they needed to have a pre-existing friendship within the narrative. I'm saying that if you can't pitch the dynamic to me without referring to the fact that they think the other one is hot, they don't have a dynamic, they're just attracted.

#god. THIS.

do you read fanfic for a fandom you haven't engaged with otherwise?

no and I wouldn't

no but I'd try

yes and I liked it

yes but it's not for me

I don't think ppl should read fanfic without understanding the source material

just stumbled across a video of someone asking for fic recs and when asked what fandom they replied 'any' and my mind short circuited, pls add your thoughts in the tags

#i do this all the time #sometimes because i'm reading a given tag to see how people handle it #sometimes because someone said the fic was good and i'm nosy #sometimes because a friend got into the fandom #etc etc etc!#tho my favourite thing is when you've read fic for a fandom you're not in #and eventually you're like ugh fine i'll try the source material #and you watch that and are like… where are the guys i know?#i do not know these people. where did my guys go.#terrible when it happens in the other direction obviously

so wildly obnoxious when you agree with the starting point of someone's stance only for them to hard turn into things you DON'T agree with and now you have to defend the thing that was originally annoying you

"too many authors in the current market are focusing on selling 'spice' instead of telling interesting stories"

"oh yeah, i agree. i started reading one that i heard a lot about and it just wasn't-"

"and it's all of these women reading their fucking mommy porn out in public like FREAKS"

*through gritted teeth* "people should be allowed to read whatever they want, and actually these books should be left alone and you should shut up about it"

#me settling in to be a hater about an annoying trend in a thing i generally enjoy #and then quickly realising that to the other person this is not a 'generally enjoy' situation #💀💀💀

IDK maybe this is a me thing but if I had planned a revenge murder on a train and then at the last minute a celebrity homicide detective was booked in the last cabin I would simply not go ahead with the murder.

#this is so charming to me #both for the shippy reasons #and because it's a funny little reminder #this aired in 1995 #that's thirty (ouch) years ago. barely.#but it was totally normal to talk about turning thirty like this #as if it was like a button and you hit thirty and were all ready to hole up and die #and now it's like…#idk can you imagine someone reacting to turning thirty like this #and getting this kind of response instead of a 'wtf is wrong with you. get a grip.'#idk it's just funny to me #star trek #deep space nine #garashir

Veil of Shadows 月鳞绮纪 | Episode 4

having a threesome isnt going to solve any of their problems but they should do it anyway

#hey hey hey #this is unfair!#it absolutely *will* solve that persistent erection and potentially the short-term horniness #in exchange it will introduce about twenty-seven new problems #including bangers such as:#can't stop thinking about it #do i have... feelings?? about BOTH of them???? i didn't ask for this!#lingering sense of guilt #the conviction that it meant way more to one of them than it did to the other two #arousal that kicks up every time one of them gets too close... or sees the other two getting too close #newfound envy of the relationship that the other two have #distributing yet erotic dreams #feeling rejected #feeling used #feeling manipulated #feeling like they liked feeling used or manipulated and not sure what to do about it #feeling left out #intimacies that can't be unknown (that you'd have to pry from their cold dead hands)#laundry #THE LIST GOES ON
