hi, i'm skyler! they/them preferred, but he and she are fine if you slip up. i'm an adult but generally post content that mid to late teens can safely interact with if they want to.
this blog has minimal tagging. i'm open to tagging more content on request, but no one's requested it yet so fuck it, we ball 🤷here are the tags i currently consistently aim to use:
#emeto - more than a quick mention of vomit directly in the post; i don't currently use this a lot, but since this was originally an emeto blog, don't put it past me to bring it back. #emeto mention if you can't stand even a simple mention of it.
#not for minors - anything that feels a little too adult; i use this one rarely
#stats update - discussing writing stats, ao3 stats, or anything else i think some people might be tempted to use to make themselves feel worse by comparing themselves to me
#month goals - discussing my goals & outcomes, mostly writing and art focused
you're on my main blog, where i aim to post primarily whump-focused content. it currently leans heavily toward voltron but typically matches whatever my biggest active obsession is. if you're here because i followed/interacted with you, this may not be my blog you want to follow back! you can pick and choose from any of the below based on your interests:
K/L blog
J/K blog
Reconnect J/K zine (i help mod this one)
S/K blog
Danny Phantom blog
only my serious art
only my silly art
ao3 scrape search
misc reblogs
if you don't like any of those, don't follow them 🤷block 'em if you gotta, but i'm not interested in your negative opinions. occasional ship content ends up on main if it has a hurt/comfort aspect to it that feels strong enough to be worth ignoring my usual aim to keep this one a gen blog. there are a couple other blogs i don't advertise - you'll find those if they're meant for you. if you find 'em, you're welcome to talk to me privately about 'em! but please do not publicly link them to my main urls.
i block liberally to avoid people who post ship hate in spaces i can see! it's nothing against you as a person, and you can still interact with my sideblogs, but if you post content that makes me uncomfy, you will be blocked on main so i don't have to see your takes in the wild. if you're blocked on tumblr, that's not a blanket dni request from me - feel free to interact on ao3/discord/anywhere else as long as you're not being a dick to me. i also try to block people based on their dnis, but i don't review every single blog before i interact with a post - if you don't want me interacting with you, you should block my main.
bitches be like "i love writing fanfiction" and then constantly second guess themselves because what if they're not good enough what if it's cringe what if no one likes it what if people laugh when they see it what if i mischaracterized someone what if i didn't tag it properly what if what if what if
Keith getting in fights just because there's nothing else to break the monotony, just because he's losing his mind with everything being the exact same every single day. Keith finally getting that rush of adrenaline, everything clicking for those few seconds.
Keith afterwards, sitting and staring into the ground, watching the blood drip from his nose and pool in a stark red puddle. He thought it would be different, he thought it would be better. He thought there would be more, but that's a lie. He didn't think, he acted.
He didn't think, or he would have known better than that. Better than to have to hide out from the chastising stares, not wanting to wipe the thin stream on his sleeve for all the evidence it would leave behind.
He didn't think, and he knew he would do the same thing over and over again, anger blinding and a proof he was almost grossly proud of. Proof he was not a good person.
writing a thesis is a great time filler. need an excuse to not go to family social obligation? sorry im busy writing a thesis. need something to do to stop hovering whilst someone is doing work in your house? write the thesis. need something to interfere with your social life, mental health, and sleep schedule? the thesis is never done
