You Sound Really Boring

we’ve all heard of the fake dating trope… but have u considered.. fake exes trope…..

‘my new romance-obsessed friend asked me who my last date was with and i was too embarrassed to say i’ve never been on a date so i blurted your name and it turns out they know you’ au

‘i didn’t want to tell my friend who my real date last night was so i just pointed at a random stranger (you) but now they’re storming over to interrogate you and you’re playing along??? okay’ au

‘a mutual friend tried to introduce us, but we already knew each other from LARPing but we’re both too embarrassed to admit that so i jokingly said we used to date and oh god now our friend wont stop interrogating us about it’ au

‘im egging your house for a dare but your parent is a cop and they’re yelling at me so i told them that you were my ex and you wronged me and now you’re coming outside and please go along with this i don’t want to go to jail’ au

‘my current partner is a huge asshole and i need a reason to break up with them so will you pretend to be my possessive and violent ex’ au

‘we’re contestants on a reality show and we kind of hate each other so the producers told us to pretend to be warring exes for the ratings so now we keep inventing crazier and crazier things the other did while we were dating’ au

bestie introduced me to mcsm and I really liked it :)

i forgot that the journal confirmed that this deleted scene is still canon

Considering making a GF themed in-character cookbook, because I love this sort of thing and we're probably never going to get an official one

The conceit being Mabel's putting together a recipe scrapbook before she leaves so she and Dipper can take home all the greasy garbage delicious food they ate that summer!

Ideas:

Canon foods like pitt cola, mabel juice, cookie chips and burrito bites

Everyone from Mayor Tyler to Wendy contribute! Bill might even hijack it for a spell with his own absolutely do not try at home recipes.

Where canon lets us down, themed foods characters would probably serve (ford's stuffed percepshrooms, Lil’ Gideons officially branded™ lil’ ol sweet potata casserole)

And obviously I would release this for free as a fan project, I'm just here for the love of the game lmao

Anyway, tell me if you're interested or have any suggestions. :)b

do y’all remember before direct messages tumblr had a dumbass ask limit of 10 per hour and communication was impossible until they introduced dumbass fan mail and we were basically sending telegraphs back in forth trying to communicate those were…dark times

So I have an abandoned WIP that I wrote roughly 17 thousand words for and I was looking in my notes doc for it the other day and found some . . . funny(?) stuff I thought I'd share. You'll probably know why it's abandoned if you make it to the end of this post.

So I pre-write my tags and notes. The notes I write during or after relevant chapters. So here are most of the non-relationship tags:

Graphic Depictions of Violence, F/M, Teen And Up Audiences, Hurt/Comfort, Angst with a Happy Ending, Whump, Heavily Implied Romance*, Torture, this got way darker than I was anticipating, No One Is Okay, And That Includes The Author, Preston and Priscilla Northwest's a+ parenting, Probably Medical Inaccuracies, I Tried Okay, the graphic violence warning only applies to a couple of chapters.

*The heavily implied romance tag was for Stan/Lazy Susan and Pacifica/Dipper

Here's the first note: Hi there! This is the story that’s been distracting me from my main one, Mindscaperers.* It’s a little different and I’d like to state right off the bat that <b>this story gets fairly dark and I will NOT be giving warnings for individual chapters, so MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE TAGS. </b> ** On a brighter note, this story is fully finished so you won’t have to randomly wait several weeks for the next chapter.*** I’ll try to post roughly two a week until I’m done. This is going to become a series, but this is the main plot. The other stories will probably be about side characters as well as the consequences of this first story. 

*it was not the only thing distracting me from Mindscaperers. I was also reading a lot of fanfiction for fandoms I'm not even in.

**I said something similar in my recent Infinity Train story, We Only Broke The Train A Little Bit (More Than You).

***Past Me wishes. I ended up with like . . . five or six chapters. Maybe seven?

My notes get better - or worse, depending on how you look at it.

The end notes for chapter three are as follows:

me: shipping is weird

My brain: pff imply stuff so hard

Me: but they’re kids

My brain: pfffffff

Me: I can’t write Stan.

My brain: make him a major character

Me: no violence

Also me: let’s write the most descriptive violence I’ve ever written–WAIT NO THAT HASN’T HAPPENED YET

Let’s write a cute lighthearted story–AHHHHHHHHH never mind

And the penultimate and also best/worst note from the end of chapter four: Yes, they’re coping with being tortured by flirting with each other. Don’t judge me–them. Don’t judge them.

. . . and now we know why I abandoned this story.

But there's on more note! At the end of Chapter 5, I wrote about the fairy family I included in my story. (I'm going to write these fairies into a different story because I love them so much. But not this story.)

Here's the note: Zaelynn is the firstborn and Annabel is the 870th child. Also, sistren is an actual word.*

Pretty sure it's basically "brethren" but specifically for girls.

So yeah. That was . . . I'm honestly concerned about the me of 6-7 months ago.

Sometimes I think about how there’s a canonical … slang(?) in Infinity Train for <I would italicize this if I knew how>shredding people to death via train wheel

Every day I long to shake roughly 3/4 of the fandom by the shoulders and shout at them that any relationship Bill and Ford had was horrifically abusive

I have to reblog this because it's funny. Funny because it's true

For a fandom surrounding a story about friendship and forgiveness, we sure have an issue with those concepts sometimes.
