(they deserve it) (they have been very good)
Wizard Fact #42: The real reason you're not supposed to stick a fork into your toaster is because you might stab one of the wizards in there
make sure you always make atleast one character with it/its pronouns because 1. there arent enough and 2. the people who dont like it will unfollow you (a positive)
big atleast btw theres always room for more
thank god i’m hot enough to get away with how annoying i am
me, sleepy in bed, thinking of my favorite characters being sleepy: obohohhoohohohbheheeeehee yes yessssss Yes YES
I don’t get suprised by AO3 tags often but I have to say I’ve never seen these two words together.
A lot of pop psychology gets thrown around and since I already have a headache, here's preventing you lot from making it worse.
Love-bombing: A manipulation tactic of increasing affection and grand gestures before or after doing something abusive, specifically to weasel one's way out of consequences.
What it is not: A streak of affection and generosity towards friends/loved ones.
Trauma-bonding: Knowingly traumatizing someone to take advantage of their vulnerable state, to then act like the "hero" or the one who cheers them up.
What it is not: Bonding over similar traumas.
Gaslighting: *Knowingly* convincing someone they cannot trust their own perception of a situation in pursuit of one's own narrative.
What it is not: Misaligned perception of events.
Narcissist: Someone afflicted with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a traumagenic cluster B disorder, that struggles with self-obsession, paranoia, craving validity from the public, delusions of grandeur, and social disconnection.
It is not: Your rubbish ex that cheated on you.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

you know how sharks have rows of teeth stacked like that?
well last night i dreamed i was growing extra toes in this fashion, 15 toes on each foot and counting. the upper toes were slightly swollen to act as a sort of cover, while the lower toes were smaller but well-formed (except that the nail beds refused to harden). the only issue was potential infection in the skin folds. It was grotesque, and yet i felt flush with power. i had just gone in search of biotin supplements and athlete's foot cream when to my dismay, i woke up...
Why can’t my subconscious just tell me the cool stuff it created in my characters directly instead of making figure it out months (if not like a year later)?
Like I only just realized that these two different characters who are both deeply tied to another characters life and how they ended up as who they are, are LITERALLY THE TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN!
They are both
Arrogant (one is has been humbled by the character tying them together (Character C))
Geniuses
Incredibly powerful
Easily considered ‘reality benders’
Have dedicated the rest of their life towards Character C
Rich
Famous
Clever manipulators
Wanted to use Character C for personal gain, at least in the beginning
Both of the planned gains from using Character C were/are to become the most powerful being there will ever be
Wanting to control Character C (one still for personal gain and the other to prevent Character C from accidentally/purposely destroying humanity and/or reality)
Among some other differences.
I HAVEN’T NOTICED THIS UNTIL TODAY AND THESE CHARACTERS HAVE EXISTED FOR LIKE 2 YEARS AND HAVE CONSTANTLY PLAGUED MY MIND!
Because of speed and convenience. If it of any comfort, I use a kettle instead of microwave.
I just want every non-american who gets mad about microwaving hot water for tea to know that my family owns a kettle and I use the microwave anyway. I will not change and I want you to die mad about it.
