official bds list has been updated!

sometimes people think I am on Mad At Them Island, when in fact I am far more often paddling around in the waters of Slightly Annoyed With Their Recent Behavior Bay, or perhaps on the beautiful Peninsula of Get Well Soon But I Will Not Be Engaging With All Of That

[creekfiend]

You Owe Either Myself Or A Loved One A Specific Apology Island is also a different location

Nightmares can be scary and confusing, but it’s important to remember that, at the end of the day, they’re just dreams.

[fettunfettered]

I'm a big fan of seer Obi-Wan au's where Obi-Wan and Quinlan are awkward foils for Yan Dooku and Sifo-Dyas. LIke their inversions. Dooku is who is all buttoned up and proper and cares for his friend but his too emotionally distant to help him vs Quinlan who is just chaos incarnate and so emotionally invest in Obi-Wan but has to remain physically distant, and Sifo-Dyas who tries so hard to be proactive and prevent his visions that he causes them vs Obi-Wan who is desperate to ignore them and pretend they are just dreams that his inaction equally causes them.

[terteradoesstuff]

You get me so well and I love this analysis is so so so much. I always love parallels between Sifo-Dyas and Obi in my AUs. They’re both so afraid of what they see but react so differently to that fear. It’s always interesting to compare them. They’re like the fight or flight instinct, with Sifo choosing to fight the future and Obi fleeing from his visions of it. And neither option works in preventing the tragedy.

Expanding a thought from a conversation this morning:

In general, I think "Is X out-of-character?" is not a terribly useful question for a writer. It shuts down possibility, and interesting directions you could take a character.

A better question, I believe, is "What would it take for Character to do X?" What extremity would she find herself in, where X starts to look like a good idea? What loyalties or fears leave him with X as his only option? THAT'S where a potentially interesting story lies.

In practice, I find that you can often justify much more from a character than you initially dreamed you could: some of my best stories come from "What might drive Character to do [thing he would never do]?" As long as you make it clear to the reader what the hell pushed your character to this point, you've got the seed of a compelling story on your hands.

[lgbtlunaverse]

this connects to some REALLY good writing advice i remember from @batshaped

Characters are contradictory, just like people are. What would it take for them to do the thing they've told themselves they'd never do, and how would they try to justify it?

I sent this to my husband, and learned he doesn't know what knotting is.

[thetrekkiehasthephonebox]

the best fanfic is the one the author had fun writing actually.

[thetrekkiehasthephonebox]

the second best is the one the author used to work through some issues.

Everyone in the group chat loves and supports Bella x Max. How can you draw something so human and tender and sweet by Accident.

[peekychu]

SO TRUEEE

That’s our ocs now

[peekychu]

Reminiscing on this and I remembered someone drew a good faith version of this and it is SO SWEET

The sign in the background that indicates that Kiki just moved in with Bella genuinely makes me want to cry. This is what being a furry is all about

[worm-strung-string]

I have a soft spot for those time travel fics with obi wan and jaster and jaster is the only one fucking with cryptic wizard riddles (he realises IYS wizard riddles and political wishywashy speak)

This is all I really wanted

Weird Fantasy (1950) #18 written by Al Feldstein and drawn by Joe Orlando, with editor Bill Gaines

[velvetvexations]

So he said it can't be a Black. So I said, "For God's sakes, Judge Murphy, that's the whole point of the Goddamn story!" So he said, "No, it can't be a Black". Bill just called him up and raised the roof, and finally they said, "Well, you gotta take the perspiration off". I had the stars glistening in the perspiration on his Black skin. Bill said, "Fuck you", and he hung up.

Ok if we exclude Palpatine who has the gayest lightsaber?

[stagbeetleboy]

This is Palpatine’s lightsaber btw. He duel wields.

[stagbeetleboy]

Actually it’s genius. It’s is a foolproof design if you don’t want to get caught with a lightsaber

*goes through chancellor’s desk drawers and finds this*

*slowly closes drawer and never mentions it*

[wolviecat]

If you see something…say nothing and drink to forget

[saul-tortellini]

It can't possibly be that blat-

[sufficientlylargen]

Ok, wait, we need to go back to Palpatine's lightsaber....

Why does it have googly eyes??

[tyrantisterror]

In this world of increasing censorship, it is our duty to reblog good art that's also kinda horny.

"But my lord, if you do this, people will think you're horny and gross!"

Then let me be horny and gross.

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

the point of fanfiction is that you can write whatever the fuck you want forever and no one can stop you. #thepower

[guinevereslancelot]

first base is wound tending second base is hand touching

[guinevereslancelot]

third base is marriage

[guinevereslancelot]
