Fanfic Ideas I'll Never Get Around To #49:

"Are you excited for your birthday?" Akira asked. He expected a scathing retort about the idiocy of birthdays and sentiment, but to his surprise, Akechi smiled.

"I'm quite excited, yes."

"Really?"

"Why wouldn't I be? I enjoy birthday traditions. I get to set candles on fire just to snuff out their miserable lives a moment later."

"Blowing out the candles, you mean?"

"Semantics. Then I get to stab a cake."

"Cut the cake."

"Same difference. After that I demand tribute from my inferiors."

"Get presents from your friends."

"And finally, I get to shoot someone."

"You shoot a picture of them."

"No, I meant that one literally. I'm going to kill the most annoying party guest."

"That's not a birthday tradition, that's just murder."

Akechi sighed.

"If you're going to be like that about it, I guess I'm not excited after all."

"I'm lying to you but this sentence is technically the truth without context" is such a good trope. Like yes the way that I am spinning these words forms a lie but if you squint I'm actually not lying.

99% of queer discourse stops right before they define the true difference between bisexual and pansexual!

BISEXUALS GROW FROM THE GROUND

PANSEXUALS GROW FROM THE CEILING

anything u think about YOUR life after 10pm is bs to be ignored. anything u think about a character’s life after 10pm should be posted about online and expanded on for paragraphs. :)

being friends with english majors is so fun you'll send a text like hey are you free for brunch and they'll respond with some shit like "haven't the faintest clue, my schedule is utterly fucked"

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

english majors so used to talking like 19th century british aristocracy they think this is a joke about busy schedules

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

This kind of response to things I say about sex work, which isn't always phrased like this but almost always focuses on me being male or a man or my pronouns, shows a fundamental misunderstanding of why mansplaining is bad.

I am a sex worker. I have been for a decade. The majority of people I know are sex workers and I'm embedded in sex worker community. I started before 18 and have done it in brothels, cars, my own home, clients' homes, saunas, and hotels.

It's absolutely reasonable to criticize men who speak on issues they don't experience like an authority, especially when they speak over women to do it. It is not reasonable to raise someone's gender (or in this case, pronouns) as a reason their thoughts aren't worth hearing when the issue is one they do face.

Sometimes I fear that I’m losing touch with Goro Akechi.

I’ve written a minimum of 75k words about him since December, and I’ve also assigned him enough headcanons to cause a grown man to topple over. I’ve run this race with the OG character in heart and mind— beside me the whole way— but that doesn’t mean I’m not significantly further away from the start than before.

Specifically, this comes up with his Detective Prince persona (hah). There’s a suave, calculatedness about him that I sometimes have difficulty holding in my head. He’s smart; he’s almost certainly smarter than me, and that’s kinda hard.

All this being said, I think my Akechi (and everyone’s unique Akechi) is valid. I think I have done a good job writing him and keeping and building on the psychological complexity established in P5R.

It’s just that, sometimes, I wonder if I do him Justice (hah). He is my favorite character in all of media after all; he deserves nothing but my best.

Who knows? There are 100000 Goro Akechi’s in the world. 100000 masks he wears and a 100000 interpretations we have. Is there even an Akechi to be in touch with?

It’s fascinating hearing how other people think. My dad says he has to think of a full sentence word for word before he says it whereas I don’t know what I’m gonna say until I’ve already said it.

me trying to convince myself that the whole spectrum of human emotions is a good and necessary thing to feel even if its not comfortable while im actively experiencing emotions that make me feel like my bones are being dissolved in acid
