why isn't anyone ever just whelmed?

[aurantiumred]

intro.

sideblog is @aurantiumphoenix for DC related posts.

read below for rules, dnis, warnings, and info.

blog posts may include the following.

swearing/profanity

lots of fanon ships and headcanons...

religion mentions (polytheistic)

quick mentions (not descriptions) of smut/porn.

i wouldn't recommend going through my blog if any of these topics make you uncomfortable, unfortunately. i may make a separate blog eventually with less triggers (like not swearing and keeping ANY mention of smut or religion away), but for now im not sure this is the best place for you. have fun!

rules:

dont be a dick. please be respectful, both to me and the people you interact with on my posts.

some of the characters i talk about are minors. sexualizing them, even if you are also a minor, is not okay and may result in a block.

my anon asks may be on but that can change. if you're breaking rule 1 or 2 using anon asks it probably will, sorry!

please use tws if you're reblogging my posts with content that needs to be censored! while i dont mind, others might and i want to be as kind as possible. <333

interaction info:

please interact with caution, im sensitive: darkshippers, agegap shippers, incest shippers, noncon shippers, batcest shippers.

please interact with caution, i could be endangered: adults, ai users (i explicitly forbid anyone from feeding my fics to ai.)

please DO interact, you're cool ^^: lgbtqia+, authors, fanfiction readers/writers, neopronoun users, dc fans, percy jackson fans, jason grace fans, therians, furries, otherkins, otherpaws.

i use dnis because i cant block everyone. weeding out the respectful ones of the groups who wont harm me makes it easier for me to block the ones that will.

info:

call me red, aurantium, marcus, or any pairing of the three. idrm.

he/xe/it/aers/spark(he is preferred most days!)

transmasc, gay, and asexual. not interested in a relationship currently.

my tag for my own rants, rambles, or otherwise non-fandom related talking: #red talking

interested in the riordanverse, the stormlight archive/the cosmere, drawing, and writing. more recently started learning about DC.

pretty chill with anything! i mean i dont wanna see nudes at 6 in the morning but as long as you're not sending me photographed/drawn porn too early in the day im good with everything.

ill block you if you're being mean, but otherwise we can be pals! :]]]

birth control is so fun because wdym one participant dying meant you couldn't put it on the market but i could use the side effects of my birth control (including BONE THINNING and urges to harm myself and others) as a blanket for the baby if it failed

[tired-shipper]

harming myself by simply Existing and having a brain that thinks.

"don't let me in with SCP-847 lololol" "Omg 847 is suuuchhhh a pick me" translating! "I can't fucking read and I hate women and rape victims." Come back to me after you've finished "the hungry hungry caterpillar" and then you can consider re-reading that article, because it very obviously stabs you in the face with the point several times.

HM for the most stupid things I've seen about that article: "Another classic, 2020, defeat the patriarchy SCP." First of all, the modern article is 2016 or earlier from what I can tell. Second of all, how dare authors write about societal issues. How dare artists make art about relevant topics. Not to mention SCP-847 IS A VICTIM. It is not a "defeat the patriarchy (as predatory and misogynist men characterize the movement)" SCP, it is "stop child exploitation and protect trafficking victims" SCP. If you find that to be "SJW" behavior, you are D-7294 in the article.

I loved the tratie hanahaki au. Some more hanahaki aus??

Hey there! That was the only Tratie hanahaki au that I could find, but here's some more with other ships...

yellow roses by sparrowsong07

hanahaki doesn't need to be romantic, Leo learns

Daffodils by @beauregardance

The flowers blooming in Will’s lungs were poetic, really, if not for the fact that they were killing him. And the cure? To surgically cut out his unrequited feelings for one Nico di Angelo. Real poetic, huh?

Hanahaki 2, Chatfic boogaloo by squidballsinc

The Gang, 2:01 am *GhostKing is online* GhostKing: {a photo of Nico standing in the woods, the moon is perfectly lighting up the area, he’s wearing a flower crown of bloody sunflowers, a small line of blood dripping from his mouth}   *LegallyBlond is online* LegallyBlond: First- I always knew you had the Flower Boi aesthetic in you somewhere LegallyBlond: Second- hOLY SHIT ARE YOU O K????? or, an unholy-mashup of 2 AU's that don't commonly go together

forget-me-nots - day three, AU - hanahaki disease by @aurantiumred

Jason wanted to pretend he didn’t know what was wrong with him, because he knew it was entirely his fault. He wanted to pretend he could be fixed on his own. He was supposed to be strong enough to help himself. That was his responsibility. But this wasn’t something that he could grit his teeth and bear alone, and he knew everyone on this ship knew that, too. Jason had fallen asleep to the sound of Percy’s breathing for three days straight. It wasn’t fair, how he was fine, he was okay, but Jason wasn’t allowed to be. He wasn’t allowed to be, and instead of being allowed to force himself into okay-ness like he had for the rest of his life, he was left helpless. Tortured and desperate, the devotee of an indifferent god. Percy was perfect. And Jason was just, well, Jason. - Jason grows sick after Percy falls into Tartarus. Percy doesn't understand why, but Jason does.

“You okay, Piper?” She stares at him for a second, trying to get her mind to catch up to his words. He looks nice in his black suit, paired with a black button down. It’s on brand. He tilts his head to the side when she doesn’t answer, and she blinks. “Um,” She says, and then shakes her head sharply. “Fine. I’m fine.” “Right,” Nico says. “Can I use the bathroom?” “Yeah.” She says, but doesn’t move. “Piper?” “Right.” She moves out of the way, and Nico gives her one last look before closing the bathroom door in her face. +++ Piper has a big problem.

We hope you enjoy! Leave kudos, leave a comment, and happy reading!

counselors when you tell them you're being bullied: have you considered that his mom yelled at him once six years ago

[aurantiumred]

if you bring an air horn to an indoor event in close proximity with others i actually want you dead btw ESPECIALLY if the venue explicitly says NO airhorns. you snuck that shit in here. you know it was wrong. you read the warning label. jesus.

"i HATE afab transwomen and they're evil and horrible and attention seeking and should DIE!"

"that's an intersex term and intersex afab transwomen suffer socially and medically similarly to other trans girls because they still have to fight to be perceived as women"

"well OBVIOUSLY im not talking about INTERSEX PEOPLE! LANGUAGE CHANGES YOU KNOW! YOU IDIOT!"

the video you've commented under is complaining that queer people are perceived as pedophilic because of MAPs, and that disabled people are seen as "fakers" because of transabled terms. youd punch someone in the face if they called you a pedophile because of pedophiles taking your term, and that would be a justified punch, too. so why is it okay when you call intersex people evil for perisex people taking their term? do you just care less about intersex people? or are their terms just not as valuable as yours?

[aurantiumred]

[aurantiumred]

see theres a REALLY popular movie im watching tomorrow BUT I don't want to get spoiled and so since my Tiktok fyp is ALREADY 100% this movie and its book's fanart, edits, and memes, i NEED to stay quiet here. all ill say is that the main character is a blond guy with glasses and the last name grace and it is making me SUFFER because of jason grace and my history with blond glasses wearing men named grace has so far been 100% fatality and I don't think it will happen but the brain worms... the brain worms think it will.

"Don't be a pedophile!" I comment under a tiktok.

"Yes! And I hate women!" Tiktok Commenter 1 replies.

"No! You shouldn't hate women! What's wrong with you?" Second tiktok commenter says.

"See? All people who hate pedophiles hate women," Pedophile comments, who looks suspiciously like Tiktok Commenter 1 with no hat.
