caffeine-and-computers

unstable overcaffeinated creative writer/computer nerd with simultaneously no energy and too much energy and all of it is chaotic. currently walking the line between asocial and antisocial :)

hypothetically if I wrote a She-Ra Hunger Games AU would anyone read it?

[caffeine-and-computers]

some more (spoiler-free) info:

Set in the 73rd Games (the year before the original THG trilogy)

Adora and Catra are District 2 Careers and Shadow Weaver is a previous Victor who is training them

Bow and Glimmer are from District 1 and yes, Glimmer (She-Ra) and Glimmer (THG) are the same person (sorry Glimmer)

I assigned other characters to Districts based on their abilities/skills in spop and the District industries, so: Entrapta is from District 3 (tech), Mermista and Sea Hawk are from District 4 (fishing), Scorpia is from District 5 (power/electricity), Lonnie and Kyle are from District 6 (transportation, but I kind of just didn't know where to but them tbh), Double Trouble is from District 8 (textiles, I'm thinking costumes), Huntara and Rogelio are from District 10 (livestock) and Perfuma is from District 11 (agriculture)

Frosta is also from District 2 and really wants to volunteer but can't because she's only 11 and three quarters

Sorry Frosta you have to, you know, live

Not getting into it for spoilers but there is a rebel plot

Somehow it's actually mostly THG canon-compliant because the 73rd Games' Victor isn't revealed in THG canon

Activist charged with felony after giving border agent "duress code" that wiped his phone

The government says destroying his own data during an airport interrogation was illegal.

In early 2025, Atlanta resident Samuel Tunick was on his way home following a trip abroad. After landing in the US, customs agents demanded access to his Pixel phone, which was running an alternative version of Android called GrapheneOS. Rather than hand over his data, Tunick used a clever feature of the software to delete everything. Now, he’s facing federal charges.

The first hearing in this case happened last week, according to The Guardian, during which government attorneys and agents claimed that Tunick was subjected to a standard secondary interrogation at an international airport. During that encounter, agents were “looking for anything that’s prohibited.” However, Tunick’s legal team alleges he was targeted for his activism.

Tunick was involved with a group called Defend the Atlanta Forest, which opposed the construction of an enormous law enforcement training facility in the area often known as Cop City. What Tunick didn’t know, according to his lawyers, was that he’d been placed on a watch list for his actions and that Customs and Border Protection had discussed over email plans to detain him upon his arrival back in the US for “suspected terrorism activities.”

"How's the book going?"

"It's going so fast. Basically running away from me. Oh, no, it's escaping!"

You should pray to ME instead

(sorry for another simple sketch, I swear I'm working on something better, but my pain is back and is slowing my drawing process. I hope you guys still like my sketches tho ^^)

[caffeine-and-computers]

this is making me want to write a much more fucked up fanfiction than the one I'm currently writing and that's saying something

[this-is-me-trying-girlie]

okey we just got another sneak peek on Victorious

VICTOR. SMOKING. A. JOINT.

[caffeine-and-computers]

"IN HERE, WITH THEM, THINGS FELT SAFER" VICTORIA HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME

[discountsoysauce]

Angie deserved better than both of them

[littlerat2]

Victor Vale, do you actually want to kill Eli Ever? Or do you just want to be at the forefront of his mind again as you twist the knife into his stomach? Do you actually want him dead or do you just want him to pray to you like he prays to god?

The villain who knows too much!!

𖤐 "I know what you did before you became the hero of this little story. Do you want me to tell them or will you?"

𖤐 "You're not here because you're righteous. You're here because it's personal. Admit that and we can have a real conversation."

𖤐 "You think I'm the monster. That's adorable. I think you're the monster who found better lighting."

𖤐 "I've read every file on you. Every decision. Every casualty you called acceptable. Don't lecture me about lines."

𖤐 "The difference between us is that I know exactly what I am. You're still telling yourself a story."

𖤐 "You could have stopped this three moves ago. You didn't. Ask yourself why."

𖤐 "Go ahead. Arrest me. Lock me up. Nothing I built dies with me and you know it."

𖤐 "I watched you make the same choice I made. The only difference is who was watching."

𖤐 "You keep saving people. I keep asking why those people and not the others. Neither of us has a good answer."

𖤐 "You want to know the worst part? You understand me. Completely. And that terrifies you more than anything I've done."

𖤐 "Every villain you've ever stopped had a reason. You never stayed long enough to hear mine."

𖤐 "I used to believe in the same things you do. Then I watched what happened to the people who believed in them."

𖤐 "You're very good at the heroics. You're less good at what comes after. That's where I live. The after."

𖤐 "Do you ever wonder if you'd have ended up here if someone had just listened earlier? Because I do. About both of us."

The Vales "raising" Victor to be an absolute menace and then unleashing him upon the world was actually a marketing strategy to sell more of their shitty self help books to people whose lives Victor has ruined

“you cannot ship these two fictional characters because—” actually I can because they are not real people. they are just toys I play with. you cannot apply real-world morality to fiction or how strangers play with their imaginary toys in their imaginary sandboxes.

you can, however, curate your own internet experience by minding your own business, muting/blocking/scrolling past what upsets you but does not hurt anyone in real life in any way, shape or form.

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

“ship whatever you want except xyz. there is a limit” so you miss the entire point of what I just said 👌🏻

there is, in fact, no limit. I may be uncomfortable with it, I may even find it unpleasant/disturbing, but my personal feelings are not rules that can be applied to other people, and they absolutely do not justify shaming or harassing other people.
