Can we please stop making unwanted, antagonistic rivalries between Percy and the people he genuinely cares about? It's getting tiresome.
Like, some of y'all act like Percy killed Bianca and then laughed in Nico's face with how much part of the fandom likes to act like Percy doesn't care. They'll talk about how he said that he wanted to cut Nico's 'stupid head off,' like he would ever actually do that. Like the same guy who hesitated to harm Luke when he was possessed by Kronos would actually follow through on what was a visceral reaction to betrayal when Percy knew that people's lives were on the line. Like he didn't spend months and months of searching for Nico, concerned for his safety. Like he didn't hide his parentage, wanting to make sure that the other campers didn't treat him differently as a son of Hades. Like he didn't steel his resolve to be the one to fulfill the prophecy so Nico wouldn't be in more danger than necessary. Like he didn't introduce Nico when he first appears in Percy's dream in the Last Olympian as 'My friend, Nico.'
And then there's Leo. And sure, Leo was angry at Percy at first because Calypso thought he had abandoned her to her fate, and that was the side of the story that Leo heard. But some people act like he actually did so, ignoring the fact that he made the gods promise on the River Styx to free her, something that they were then bound to do. And then he was kidnapped and put to sleep for months with his memories wiped. Where on earth would he have had the time to ensure they kept their promise? Even Leo, who still didn't know the whole story, essentially went, "Damn you, you're impossible to stay mad at." Yes, they had a rocky start, but they do form a genuine friendship.
And Will. While I think it be cool to explore how Will felt during the second Titan war, and all the angst that came with it, I don't think he'd blame Percy for Michael's death. Perhaps at first, or maybe even as a little voice in the back of his head, but that isn't going to stop him caring about the campers, Percy included. Y'all act like he wouldn't chain Percy to an infirmary bed if he learned just how many times Percy has had suicidal thoughts or feelings.
I didn’t realize you were the person who did the fanfiction tag drinks.
ahah yeah that's meeee!!
They never really talk about the way that Tim essentially parented Bruce for a while, but it's an open secret that Tim is the only other person besides Alfred who has a chance to make Bruce see reason when he's particularly stubborn. It doesn't really cross anyone's minds. They don't think too deeply in the matter. It doesn't come up much, anyways.
But then one day, Bruce messed up. Not as Batman, but Bruce Wayne, a father. Now everyone's in the batcave, watching Tim chew Bruce out.
Dick's screaming matches with Bruce is stuff of legend, and also normal, so most have figured out how to tune them out. But this isn't a screaming match. It isn't even a shouting match.
This is Tim tearing into Bruce with pinpoint accuracy: not saying anything untrue, which makes the words dig all the deeper.
Everyone thinks Bruce is going to snap back, but he sits there, cowed. And then, to everyone's (except Alfred's) shock and disbelief, Tim stares him down and says in an absolutely icy tone, "I'm disappointed in you, Bruce." And Bruce just wilts in his chair.
And then he actually apologizes.
Tim - a single dad who works two jobs.
More specifically: Tim, who helped his girlfriend (Steph) through her pregnancy at 15 and looked deeply into pregnancy and child rearing incase Steph wanted to keep the baby, before she decided to put them up for adoption.
Tim, who parented his child (Bruce) as a single parent at 13+
Tim, who is staring at the cloning chamber of his dead best friend(s), suddenly realising this may result in a baby- but jts OK. Because he's prepared.
Robin's are prepared for anything.
And Tim? Tim is fully prepped for a baby. It's ok.
Doesn't matter, in the end. The cloning fails, Kon and Bart return, he finds Bruce. But the idea sits, in the back of his mind... he could be a dad, if he wanted to.
‘that ship doesn’t even make sense they never even interacted in canon!’ have you considered that i ship characters based on their dynamics and the potential they could have had if they did interact
Fyodor, gesturing to Nikolai: This is Reginald. He's a purebred doberman. He cost $2000 and I was on a waiting list for two years to get him.
Dazai, tackling Atsushi and Sigma: These are my babies Chonko and F*ck*ss. I found them in a dumpster and I love the more than life itself.
Me, messing around with giving AI prompts: "Hey, how can I skirt around writing smut without making it look stupid?"
AI: "I'll use the two characters you made up for in the previous prompt: Josh and Tim, and give you an example."
Me: "Didn't you kill off Tim in the previous prompt by having Josh throw him off a cliff?"
AI: "FUCK YOU, THEY'RE GAY!"
This is going to be a wild take: under certain circumstances, I actually wouldn't mind if Dazai stayed dead.
Obviously, I want him alive, and am still in denial about how permanent his death truly is. But what's worse than an outright statement going "Dazai is dead and will never be brought back to BSD", is the uncertainty (partially because of the fandom). If he's dead, I want to have a skk scene that obliterates my heart.
I want what's left of the PM or the ADA to find vampire Chuuya, cradling Dazai's rotting corpse in his arms as he tries again and again, unsuccessfully, to save him by turning him into a vampire. Where each time he tries, Dazai's ability lashes out and removes the foreign ability, and he dies all over again. I want a Chuuya who has already been turned back to a human during one of his attempts, but still continues anyways because he can't cope, until the people who found him have to physically pry him away from Dazai.
I have a craving, and that craving is hurt/no comfort.
Top-quality romance
As a fanfiction writer, some of my friends always ask me why the stories I dedicate any amount of effort into are the gender bent ones where the male protagonist turns into a female. Is it because I do not want to ship two guys together so one of them has to be female? Absolutely not. I just think that it would be interested in how the story progression would look with a girl.
Fullmetal Alchemist? Roy not understanding how the fuck to treat this tempest compressed into the body of a tiny, human child. Sure, she might give him sleepless nights over property damage and lack of respect to local authorities, but he also remembered the time she called him on his personal phone, crying hysterically, because no one explained menstruation to her and she thought her bleeding was an early sign of her mother's sickness.
This was mainly about Fullmetal alchemist, but my point stands
Beloved creator and internet shouty man Danny Motta said that Rei suwa as an adult looked like Aizawa today.
I’m slowly having the realisation that buddy daddies is just erasermic hitman au fanfic where they raise uraraka together.
Please don't be mean. I cry when people are mean and I don't want to cry.
