@god-damn-it-miranda
I heard you were leaving and I just wanted to tell you that you are a wonderful person and that you need to know and remember that. No matter what anyone says you are a gift, and need to be treasured. Stay safe.
Thanks so much hun, this is ridiculously sweet.

Thank you sweetheart, this is very kind of you <3
I guess this is goodbye
(Warning for a long post ahead)
Things haven’t exactly been great while I’ve been away, and I’ve been doing a lot of thinking. And I’ve come to the realization that my time on tumblr is done. I love all of the people I’ve met here, and honestly I wish things weren’t how they were right now but...for now and the foreseeable future, I won’t be here.
I won’t delete this blog, but I also won’t be active on it anymore. That means no posting, no queues, no messaging....nothing. I have a few people that I specifically want to say goodbye to, so I figured plunking it all in one post would be the easiest thing to do.
@hamilficsfordays Thank you so much for being an amazing friend since I’ve started this blog. I know things have been rocky between us, but that doesn’t mean I care about you any less. Please remember that you’re amazingly talented and you’ll be writing amazing things in no time.
@purple-heart-anon Please keep being the amazing ray of sunshine that you are. Please keep taking care of yourself and others, and remember that it’s perfectly fine to take some time for yourself. Gotta look out for number one.
@love-doesnt-discriminate You are absolutely adorable and so so so talented, and I really hope that things always go well for you, because all you deserve is good things.
@imagineham Your writing is amazing, please don’t ever doubt that. Just because it doesn’t get notes doesn’t mean that whatever you post isn’t a work of art. Please keep writing, because I know one day you’ll write something and it’ll just explode in popularity.
@anthonyramosobc You are so absolutely stunning and talented, and I know things may be hard but I know you can push through. You’ll finish whatever it is you’re working on and I know it’s going to be amazing. I’m sorry we haven’t talked a lot recently but...Just know I still believe in you.
@north-of-96th-street I miss talking to you so much, and I know I’m going to miss it even more when I’m gone. You were one of my favourite people to yell about the OT3 with and I’m going to miss that a lot.
@peacefulmusician You are such a tough cookie and I’m so proud of you for pushing through things. Please remember that you’re amazing and talented and the big one is...don’t forget to just breath kiddo.
@shawnsrep You are so incredible and brave and I just really hope you keep fighting for what you want, because I know that if you do you’re going to go so far.
@thisstableground Thank you so much for dragging me into Ruben Marcado/Do No Harm hell. I’m going to miss reading your amazing writing and seeing your incredible art (though tbh I’m probably still going to stalk your archive account)
@timesarehardfornewsies I honestly can’t wait for you to finish your show and for it to explode because of how amazing it’s going to be. Please remember that you’re absolutely gorgeous and so talented.
If I’ve forgotten anyone, just please remember that I love you all so much and wish for only good things to happen to you all.
I have a discord and a snapchat if anyone wants those, just message me and I’ll send it to you. I’ll be checking the blog until tomorrow (Friday) night, and then I’m gone.
Love, - Minnie
Leaving
I woke up this morning and went to the washroom to take my morning meds. On my shelf is...honestly quite a collection of shit, and it’s not even everything.
I’m looking at this collection of pills and the first thing that pops into my head is how easy it would be to just take everything at once, lay down and die. And while I’ve had suicidal thoughts before, nothing was as strong as this one.
And I realized just how little control I have over my life at this point. And that thought scared me so much.
So I’m going to be stepping away. Again. Only this time I don’t think I’m going to be coming back. I need to clean up the shambles of my life, I need to get back on my feet and just try and figure out what the hell is going on.
If anyone wants to keep in contact, I have a discord and snapchat. Just shoot me a message for either (mutuals only though please)
Got Your Back
greaser!lafayette x reader
note: sooooo I started writing something completely different and then realized it would take way too long to finish it so I changed my idea to this. This is pretty rough and probably not amazing but I hope it’s good enough for you to enjoy.
warnings: violence, blood
word count: 1874
Sitting in the passenger seat of Lafayette’s car as he pulls up at the drive in, you notice the cars of several of his friends already here. It still feels strange, hanging out with them all the time. But now with Lafayette’s arm around your shoulders and his, now your, friends all around you you feel safer than you used to.
Watching through the windscreen you see Eliza and Alex leaning against the side of his car, he has an arm around her waist and is leaning into whisper something in her ear, something that makes her laugh. A few feet away is Eliza’s sisters, the two of them listening to Herc and John who are probably telling them some ridiculous story about themselves being more brave than they actually are.
You know you’re going to have to get out of the car soon and mingle with the others, but right now all you want is to sit here with Lafayette and enjoy the feeling of his arms around you.
When he reaches for the door handle you pout and reach out for his arm.
“No, let’s just stay in here for a little bit. We have all night for them,” you complain, giving him your best puppy dog look so that he’ll give in to what you want.
He chuckles softly, pressing a kiss to your head and settling into the seat. “We can stay, we’ve got some time before the movie.”
You smile proudly, leaning into him further. His arm around your shoulders pulls you in a little tighter, his hand rubs your arm and things feel a little warmer and more comfortable. After the way your father yelled at you earlier, you want nothing more than to be with Lafayette, curled up and ignoring the world, but he insisted that this would make you feel better.

Self Diagnosis Misconceptions
How anti-self dxers think I self dxed:
Me: *reads post about disorder and mildly relates to half a sentence of it* sounds edgy *loudly screams from the rooftops that I Definitely Have The Disorder*
How I actually self dxed: (note that this takes place over a period of multiple months)
Me: *reads post about disorder* wow I really relate to this but I don't have that disorder so I'll just ignore it.
Me: *reads and relates to many more posts about that disorder* ok, I should probably look into this more.
Me: *looks up official diagnostic criteria for the disorder* huh, I guess I don't have it.
Me: *reads and relates to more posts about the disorder* hmm… this is kinda weird…
Me: *looks up the diagnostic criteria again, this time recalling past incidences of symptoms* wait I… actually do enough of these symptoms to get I diagnosis… how did I not realize this the first time…?
Me, weeks later: but what if I actually don't?
Me: *looks at the diagnostic criteria again, remembering even more past symptoms* ok I most likely really do have this disorder.
Me again: but what if I really don't
Me: *takes at least half a dozen online tests based off the official diagnostic criteria*
Literally every test: You might/probably/definitely have moderate/severe (disorder). You need to see a mental health professional.
Me: ok, the evidence so far suggests I have this disorder
Me, forever questioning my own perceptions: ok but what if I don't
Tips On How to Write a Shape-Shifting Character (For both fanfic writers and original content writers)
(gif courtesy of http://ilyone.tumblr.com/)
HOLY SHIT MY LAST POST ABOUT WRITING WINGED CHARACTERS (which you can find here) GOT A SHIT TON OF NOTES! SO I DECIDED TO MAKE ANOTHER ONE ON SHAPE-SHIFTERS!
There are a lot of shape-shifting fics and stories out there. Like. A lot. Whether they be about were-creatures or about characters that just have the ability to shape-shift, a lot of the times- like with winged characters- these shape-shifters are not written very well.
They may be unoriginal, or they may be super Mary-Sues/Gary Stus when it comes to the fact that they have an infinite amount of power or whatever. So I decided to tackle the issues that come with creating a shape-shifting OC or making a canon character into a shape-shifter.
1. Decide what your character’s shape-shifting will be mainly used for
Shape-shifting can be used for a variety of reasons, and that’s why it’s critical for you to figure out what your shape-shifter will mostly be using their powers for.
Here are some reasons why shape-shifters can use their powers:
-Battle (transforming into a bigger creature to overpower enemies)
-Disguise (transforming into something that blends in with the environment around them to hide from enemies)
-Forced to shift (AKA werewolves)
-Spy work (transforming into antagonist’s lackeys to infiltrate the base or even vice versa)
2. Set Limits Right Off the Bat
Shape-shifters are incredibly powerful, and in theory, they can be practically invincible when it comes to battle and hiding from enemies.
However, that should ONLY be in theory. Your shape-shifters CANNOT be all-powerful like their abilities can call for them to be. Here’s where Mary Sue/Gary Stu elements come in, because many writers just state that their characters can shape-shift and leave it at that.
That brings up questions like:
“If he was running from the Big Bad™, then why didn’t he just shift into a wall or a chair and disguise himself?”
“If she had to fight the Big Bad™, why didn’t she just transform into a dragon and deep fry him?”
“Couldn’t they just masquerade as the Big Bad™’s minions and get inside the secret lair?”
Then, the author tries to make up for the lack of rules by giving us some half-assed explanation halfway through the third book.
As soon as the reader finds out that the main character is a shape-shifter, you have to lay down the groundwork for the limits.
Can they only transform into animals?
Can they only transform a certain amount of times at any given point?
Is there something that distinguishes them from the object/person/animal that they’ve transformed into?
Can they only transform into inanimate objects?
Can they only transform into other people?
Does transforming take a lot of energy and therefore they don’t do it often?
Is transforming painful?
Take Beast Boy from Young Justice/ Teen Titans/ various other things as an example:
He can transform into a lot of animals, yes, but they’re all obviously green and unnatural, making it difficult for him to blend in with other animals. his means that his shapeshifting would be most used for attack than for disguise.
You need to set limits, or else your character will be all-powerful and the plot won’t be all that intriguing to the readers; they know that the protagonist will win, so they won’t bother to really get invested in the story.
3. There are many forms of shape-shifters. Just because the mainstream media is all about werewolves with sixteen packs that can cut glass doesn’t mean that you have to make werewolves only
Did you know that technically, a werewolf is just a subdivision of were-creatures?
The prefix “were/wer” means “man” and is usually followed by the name of an animal, ANY animal, to imply that the man (or woman) is transforming into it. Therefore, there could be werecats, weretigers, werelions, wereunicorns, and were[insert plural name of creature here]. You should really look up the different kinds of shifters from all different cultures and regions of the world. They’re actually quite amazing!
Here’s a list of some of my favorite shapeshifter creatures (Note that these are not all of the shapeshifters, just my personal favorites some of which I feel needed to be represented more in literature):
-Were[insert name of big cat here]
-Werewolf
-Skinwalkers
-Animaguses(Animagi?) (don’t use these they’re JK Rowling’s I just really like Animagi)
-Generic, run-of-the-mill shapeshifters
-Were creatures that are actually just the creature trying to masquerade as a human/ a creature that has a human form
-Transforming into huge gruesome monsters (it’s good shit 10/10)
4. You don’t have to describe the full transformation every single time. The first time is enough.
Readers don’t want to have to go through long, agonizing paragraphs of description every time your character changes, especially if they change during a battle. They don’t want the bloody, gory action to be disrupted by a description of a transformation that they’ve read a hundred times before.
If you truly want to describe the transformation more than once, though I highly advise against it, never describe it more than three times, and make sure to make it unique every single time. If you don’t think you can do that, just describe it once.
You should, however, describe the symptoms that come with transforming. Is it painful? Is it uncomfortable? Does it feel incredible because it makes the character feel a rush of power? Gimme the deets, but not all of them.
Things that happen during transformation that you can describe:
Painful
- Fur/scales growing (stinging and itchy)
- Bones breaking and reorganizing, as well as new ones appearing and old ones transforming
- Muscles ripping and elongating/shrinking
- Fingernails/toenails turning into claws
Invigorating
- Heightened sense of sight/smell/hearing
- Adrenaline rush
- More power/strength/speed
Hope this helped!
