My main/spam blog is @/plasticseaslug! I just reblog stuff there, really. I interact from there!

I use he/it/horror-themed pronouns.

I tag images without a description as #undescribed and images with a description in the alt text as #described in alt text !

I will also tag common triggers as #thing for simplicity. For example, if I wanted to tag a thing with spiders, I would write #spiders.

Current writings:

- An Unwanted Inheritance: Fantasy project about being other and hanging out in the forest. I didn't like the way I previously wrote it so it's currently in the brainstorming stage again.

Tag: #An Unwanted Inheritance (applies to whole series)

- I Made This Playlist for You: Short story (?) I'm currently working on about a transmasculine student communicating with and falling in love with a supermassive interstellar life form known as The Cluster. Weird, queer, fucked up, lots of themes of mental health and anxiety.

If you ever find yourself thinking "oh, I can't write this Cool But Impractical thing into my story, it's just not realistic", here are a few perfectly realistic reasons why people and even whole cultures would rather do something in an impractical way rather than the sensible one:

weird flex

religious reasons

religious weird flex (someone decided that they are So Religious that they consider the practical method Sinful, and people got competitive about it)

tax reasons (some ruler put a tax on doing something the sensible way and people started doing the impractical alternative as a legal loophole)

someone wildly powerful and popular preferred doing it that way, and everyone adapted to it in order to look cool

someone wildly unpopular suggested doing the practical thing, and everyone went out of their way to avoid doing that in order to not look uncool

it just genuinely never occurred to them that there is a better alternative, and their current method has been honed to perfection/adapted to the infrastructure so deeply that at this point altering it wouldn't be sensible

write insane shit that’s way beyond your perceived ability and skill level even if you don’t finish it even if you think it sucks

[guy who likes to help everyone always but is also suicidal and some sort of pervert voice] no yeah you can drink my blood. It’s fine

[violenceenthusiast]

what about a shapeshifter who’s bad at it. shapeshifter who can never quite get the nose right. shapeshifter who always makes flipped faces because they’re doing adjustments in the mirror. shapeshifter with same face syndrome. shapeshifter who always dips further into the uncanny valley than they want. shapeshifter who can mimic a single celebrity completely perfectly but struggles to recreate anyone else.

i like when characters have weird inexplicable intimate bonds but i don't understand romantic or sexual attraction so it's just weird bullshit instead #myweirdbullshit #ilovemyweirdbullshit #secretthirdthing

"Dismay" really is a fantastic word. It's like a conceptual onomatopoeia – "dismay" reads like a transcription of the sound dismay would make, if dismay made a sound.

i feel like your group of close knit characters would work better less as a found family and more as a ride or die indie rock band a la lemonade mouth. “whos the mom friend” shut up. whos the bassist.

[quietwingsinthesky]

what’s the point of giving your character severe trauma if it doesn’t make them an asshole to work with. not in a cute way. they should be a fucking cunt. they have to make problems on purpose. they have to lash out at their friends without even being provoked, just because they’re having a bad day and they want to hurt someone to cope with it. on purpose. they have to want to hurt someone on purpose. they can regret it later, but they can’t just say something mean on accident, it has to be calculated and cruel and so, so intentional.

[dem0nteef]

anyway, today i would like to present to the congregation a fun little anecdote, using what christian lore i posess, and it's the fact that these "white bands around priests' throats" are sometimes referred to as "dog collars".

do with that what you will <333
