It’s been almost ten years since I joined Tumblr. I honestly can’t remember the last time I wasn’t using this platform. My love for GIFs, edits, and commentary led me to dedicate this blog to the GIFs, photos, and tropes I loOove.

Every now and then — though rarely — I post my own GIFs. So I want to make this clear to anyone who might come across this blog :

I have no intention of claiming these tropes as my own — I simply reblog GIFs and posts that I find inspiring for my writing. All credit goes to the original creators.

Here are some of the tropes that have inspired me lately :

✨ Artist who suffers for their art

✔️ A character driven to obsession by their craft

✔️ Someone losing everything (love, health, stability) for the sake of their art

✔️ The struggle between creating for passion vs creating for recognition.

🍬 The girly girl

✔️ A girl or woman who adores dresses, perfume, and jewelry

✔️ Loving pink but being underestimated because of it

✔️ Using femininity as a strength (think charm, wit, or softness).

💎 The Queen Bee

✔️ The girl everyone wants to be — or be with

✔️ Ruling the social hierarchy with a glamorous yet intimidating presence

✔️ Vulnerability hidden beneath the perfect facade.

🌹 The Mad Woman

✔️ A woman labeled "mad" for refusing to conform to societal norms

✔️ A descent into madness, fueled by betrayal, loss, or isolation

✔️ The eerie calm of someone who has embraced their madness.

🧸Motherhood

✔️ A mom who gives up everything (her dreams, safety, even life) for her child.

✔️ Her absence shapes the protagonist’s journey.

✔️ A morally grey or “bad” character finds purpose or redemption through motherhood.

🛠️ Fatherhood

✔️ Often emotionally reserved or absent, struggling to express love or vulnerability.

✔️ Motivated by duty, legacy, or protection — even if it comes at the cost of closeness.

✔️ Usually shaped by generational expectations, personal failure, or trauma.

🐞The Girl Next Door

✔️ She’s kind, emotionally open, and easy to talk to.

✔️ She can endure pain or betrayal but still assert boundaries.

✔️ She doesn’t dominate the room, but holds power in quiet resolve.

🫀 Enemies to Lovers

✔️ They start off disliking, distrusting, or competing with each other.

✔️ Circumstances (work, missions, being neighbors, etc.) force them to spend time together.

✔️ They assume the worst of each other — until proven wrong. The hatred never comes from true malice — it’s pride, fear, hurt, or misunderstanding

✔️ They fall not in spite of the challenge, but because they see strength and worth in each other.
