Mango Lover [Kiara] | writing blog | no longer a minor :( | will be back soon I hope, currently going to redo my whole blog and add few more fandoms so look out for that :)
Find out a few things about me and about this blog.
Nice to meet you!
Rules
Just like in school or any workplace, there need to be set some ground rules.
Failing in following them will result in penalties that will lead to block and posibbly, even report (but only if you will be a complete asshole).
I don’t want to be mean, but please respect some of my boundaries and desires so we can all have fun time here, mkay?
Thank you!
Masterlists
Here you can find all my writings for multiple fandoms that I am a part of. Keep in mind that most of it is still empty because I am new to writing.
Please keep in mind that I do not know every detail about every character and thier story and so this all may be kinda ooc, but this is a fanfiction, meaning that I, as a fan, have freedom of writing characters how I interpret them and see them. We are all complex and so are these characters, so please let me write them in a way I see fit them and brings them justice.
Hopefully that’s clear now.
Also, feedback is always welcome, just please restrain from hate and use constructive criticism instead, that way we both have a gain out of it.
Pairing: Amber X GN!reader; Amber & GN!reader (can be seen as romantic and platonic)
Genre: Angst
Warnings: mentions of death and accident, description of death (not in great detail), mentions of blood, grief
Spoilers: none I believe
Word Count: 800+
Description: One trap during a mission was all it took for the headquaters to become dark ang glum and for you to become the number one gliding champion of Mondstadt. But grieving is a slow process and everyone has their own way of doing it and that’s preciesly why you became the very outrider Amber wished to be, haunted by all the memories of her.
this is just a little something I decided to write because Amber is underappreciated
it was inspired by Amber’s voiceline
I have to build her, I’m having Amber brainrot for the past few days
also this can be seen as both platonic and romantic, pick your poison
Enjoy!
„Outrider Amber, reporting!“ now a distant echo in the hallways of the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius.
Strange, was it always this dim here?
Your uniform boots were the only thing accompanying the haunting echoes. Together they were mixing into a beautiful melody, taking you back to all the moments you two spent together.
From dining at Good Hunter to scouting and clearing out hillichurl camps. But the fondest memory you carry must be all the gliding championships you two participated in.
Once upon a time, while you were still gliding with her, you felt the winds of freedom lift you above the clouds, accompanied by the merry laughter.
But the storms that once made you soar the sky are now holding you down, suffocating you and bringing back that disgusting smell of blood that still clings to your clothes and hides under your nails.
That day when you last heard those words was the day the gliding champion got swallowed by the very freedom who’s name she flew below and above.
Standing atop the cathedral roof, you spread your fake wings and took a step forward, ready to become the number one gliding champion in Mondstadt.
That was the first step, one of the many that you yet have to gather the courage to make, but it was a progress and by the sad smile Eula was giving you, it was a good start.
So slowly you started locking the memories of her smile, of her laughter, of her bad cooking skills, of her everything into your heart.
But the seasons have changed and the time has passed, flaunting its freedom.
In fact, seasons had so much freedom and flow that they changed for dozens of times already. The weather became so much harsher, not holding back on slowly eating away everything in its path. But the memories still stayed locked and protected.
You don’t dare count just how much days were lost to radio silence from the knights and citizens. If you had to guess, you would say at least three long years have passed. And with so much time on your hands, you finally finished the outrider uniforms Amber created a vision of in her head all those years ago.
After finally adding last touches to both uniforms, you climbed the stairs to the cathedral. The static in your ears got louder with each step closer to the graveyard. You closed your eyes and hoped that it would go away, cursing yourself for locking away the bad memories of the day of her fall as well.
It was a cloudy day and the outriders made their way to the suspicious camp in the middle of the forest. But even after repeating the process of clearing so many out, neither could be prepared for the pyro abyss mage and the damned exploding barrels laying in wait. And just like that, there was a flash and then the static ringing in your ears, the salty taste of metal on your tongue, a blurred vision of a red lump on the ground in front of you and the wretched smell of blood in your nose.
Just like that, the once cloudy day turned into a full-on storm as you were holding the body of your fallen partner, the mage and hillchurls disintegrated into nothingness by the time other knights came, and the last breath long wasted.
Taking in a deep breath, you felt that smell of dried blood before the smell of the signature Outrider’s Champion Steak! before you opened your eyes in front of her grave.
There was no need to exchange any more words, your tears once again staining the clothes of the amber-eyed girl, just as they did many years ago from various reasons.
You placed the neatly folded uniform on her grave alongside the gliding champion badge and a Baron Bunny. This was the last offering you had to make before you could take the final step and do just what she did.
One more era of outriders has come to an end, but a new one was starting in the same moment.
Pushing the doors to Jean’s office where she, Eula, Lisa, Traveler, Paimon and Kaeya awaited you, just as you asked them in your letter that you sent earlier that week.
You stood in a perfect stance, your uniform clean and your outrider badge shining. The words that next left your mouth after silence for so long shocked all six attendants, but by the comforting smiles they gave you, you understood that this was a step that was bound to be made, no matter how pitiful it may’ve been.
There stood an outrider, saluting in the office, their words a new echo in the once again bright hallways of the headquarters: “Outrider Y/n, reporting!”
uhh, just popping in to say that i am still very much alive and still trying to heal from all the stuff that happened during the summer and ever since the school started two weeks ago
i am still a bit busy and am trying to write but for now i'll still be kinda awol, sorry and thank you for understanding, see you all soon when i write some stuff and make an official update.
To the aro lesbians: youre not feeding the stereotype or sexualizing lesbians. Its not your job to desexualize lesbians. You deserve the world and more 💚
To the aro gay men: youre not feeding the predatory gay stereotype. Its not your job to end the belief that gay men are predatorial 💚
To the aro bi and pansexuals: youre not emotionally manipulative or abusive for being aromantic. Its not your job to end the belief that bisexuals and pansexuals are sex hungry and emotionally null. Youre deeply emotional and complicated and no one can take that from you 💚
To the aro heterosexual men: youre not inherently mysoginistic or a “fuckboy” for not being interested in pursuing a romantic relationship with a woman youre sexually attracted to. Its not your job to single handedly tackle the belief that men who like to have sex with women but not engage in a romantic relationship with them are predatory misogynists. You identity is not problematic because it overlaps with these negative stereotypes 💚
To the aromantic heterosexual women: Your aromanticism is not an obstacle for men to hurdle and “defeat”. You are not a prize to be won 💚
To the aromantic asexual people: you’re aromanticism/asexuality does not make you a waste. Your companionship is no less valuable than that of alloromantic allosexuals 💚
To the aromantic people who feel broken: you’re not, aromanticism isnt the character flaw that media makes it out to be. It is a valid identity, not a quirk or mistake. Its an identity 💚
To the aromantic minors: youre not immature, you wont “realize when youre older”. Aromanticism isnt a childish thing that you grow out of as you mature. Your identity is just as valid NOW as it will be in twenty years. Just because people get up in arms about a-spec identities in minors doesnt make you any less aromantic. 💚
To the aromantic abuse survivors: whether your aromanticism is related to your trauma or not does not invalidate it. Whether youre aromantic because or despite your trauma youre still aromantic and no less than those who arent survivors 💚
To the romance repulsed aromantics: its okay. YOURE okay. Romance being shoved down your throat every way you turn is hard, and people ignoring your feelings about it hurts but youre just as valid as those who dont experience it. You deserve to be as comfortable as everyone else 💚
To the autistic aromantics: your autism doesnt discount your aromanticism whether theyre closely entwined or not. You deserve better than allistics policing your identity and how it interacts with your autism 💚
To the popular aromantics: its not a competition as to who can be .~*the one*~. to “fix” you no matter how much it may feel that way. You are so much more than a challenge for people to overcome 💚
To all aromantic people regardless of all else: i love you. I promise you’ll get through this 💚
Apparently not many know this and it’s pretty important information
Hey! Did you know that teenagers rib cages aren’t fully formed! Which means sometimes you get a stabbing pain in your lower side, that’s because the unformed cartilage moved and hit a nerve. If you ever get that, try not to breathe to heavily as it irritates it more
At 22 I learned that my horrible stabby chest pains were also my ribs! It turns out that sometimes they just kinda… detach and float around. So if you hold your arms above your head and breathe deeply you can pop them back into place.
But if that doesn’t work for you definitely see a doctor about your stabby chest pains. You know. In case it’s your heart
Age 15, health class: “your bodies are about to go through some weird changes. You’re going to grow body hair and get boners. Some of you will bleed out your hooha”
Actually though: “Your ribs aren’t done forming so sometimes they’re gonna move around in there and it’ll hurt out ofnowhere. Also your brains are undeveloped but you’re allowed to sign contracts and drive cars soon so keep an eye on that. Also there’s teeth you don’t need anymore that might pop in, don’t freak out we have surgery for that”
on the one hand, it has been found that the chest binding doesn’t do as much damage as we thought & that transphobes actually love to over hype it regarding (in)ability to later get surgery.
on the other hand, chest binding is relatively dangerous for everybody which is why you’re only allowed to wear it like a maximum of 8-ish hours at a time & you’re not allowed to do heavy breathing (such as due to exercise) in it, & you aren’t allowed to sleep while chest binding either.
so to be clear, the risks have been over hyped when it comes to chest binding, but you still need to follow the proper instructions. (to be clear, i don’t know how long the information about surgeons refusing to do the mascetomies has been outdated, but it is outdated, and top surgery has been around for several decades.) you also need to use the proper gear. i prefer trans people stay alive, but i also want us to live well.
If anyone wants to find out more information about the random sharp rib pain, it’s called precordial catch syndrome and it can affect everyone from young children to people in their 20s:
From time to time, some young people may feel a sudden, knife-like pain in the chest that goes away fairly quickly. Learn what causes the pa
i speak lithuanian, english, understand a lil of russian and dutch too. my language skills are very poor w em tho, cus i haveng practiced any dutch in a rlly long time and russian is just plain hard
you always seem to know what to say. people admire the ease with which you seem to navigate your life. maybe a few jealous ones even despise you for it. but your strength is your independency. whether the entire world is falling at your feet or not, you don’t let your ability to learn and move forward be affected by them. it’s admirable how much wisdom you give away for free, how nice and charming you remain even if others refuse to treat you the same and how you navigate life. i hope you know how much you’re looked up to. and i also hope that you have someone to lean onto at times. however strong you might be, you weren’t made to carry the weight of it all on your own.
you have an electric smile and there’s something magical about your words. people want to be liked by you, because when you like someone it’s felt so very deeply. you’re an angry sky nurturing dark forests and wide meadows, you’re the wide-spread wings of a dragon, you’re the stranger stuck in minds and the classmate that’s so hard to forget. it’s an honor to know you, it’s an honor to be loved by you, it’s an honor to love you. i wish you, too, could feel the love and the adoration you’ve been pouring into this world.
(And this came as a surprise ! But made me happy !)
you know when you’re listening to a song for possibly the thousandth time and just then, you notice a subtle bassline or a very soft repetitive tune tucked right underneath? and then every time you listen to it it seems to get louder and fuller until the song sounds like somewhat of a more defined, deeper version of what you already loved before? i think that’s you. every time people look at you there’s more to see, as if you’re forever blossoming, developing, growing. you’re safety yet you’re exciting. you’re steadfast yet ever-changing. you’re a beautiful person and however calm or sad or unexciting you might feel, you’re so easy to return to again and again because you’re so difficult to forget. i hope you don’t experience a feeling of being used for it, but rather treasured. it’s hard to come by people with your heart.
This has me on the verge of tears but in a good way

this actually made me feel like somone out there really understands me
you're fair, reliable and disciplined.

honestly tagging anyone who wants to do this and maybe put a smile on their face :)
my hairstyle is a bit different because my sides are almsot completely shaved off, but i still have a bit longer part so this is the closest we sre gonna get :)
Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.
SO WHAT ARE WE DOING?
Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.
Ad revenue.
We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.
WHEN IS THE PROTEST?
AUGUST 6th, 2021
12 am Eastern Time (US)
5 am Greenwich Mean Time
6 am Central European Time
8 am Moscow Standard Time
1 pm Australian Western Time
2 pm Japan Standard Time
3:30 pm Australian Central Time
4 pm Australian Eastern Time
AUGUST 5th, 2021
11 pm Central Time (US)
10 pm Mountain Time (US)
9 pm Pacific Time (US)
THE END TIME IS 24 HOURS FROM START TIME!!!
So no posting, no queues, no likes, and no reblogs!
WHAT IF I CAN’T/WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?
Like this post and share it AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE. Use the hashtags #tumblrlogoff2021 or #postplusprotest on ANY and ALL social media.
WILL THIS WORK?
Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing SOMETHING.
BECAUSE I’M A TIRED IDIOT, USE THIS TO DOUBLE CHECK YOUR TIME ZONE!!!!
Event Time Announcer shows time for Log off protest 2021 in locations all over the world. In New York it happens on Friday, August 6, 2021 a
As much as I hate to say this because this hellsite is a big part of my life, I think we should all participate in this. And you know what, it’s actually because this hellsite means so much to me that I think we should do this. post+ will hurt content creators and possibly shut down tumblr itself (though they’re much better protected than we could ever be). Don’t use post+. Use the link above and find when you should log off to help
In light of the recent PostPlus nonsense tumblr is trying to pull, here's a reminder that monetization of fanfiction can lead you to legal trouble. On Ao3 it's against the TOS to even mention any money-sending site at all because of the conditonal protection they offer.
Putting your entire fanfiction blog behind a paywall is like pointing a neon sign saying "please sue me". I bring this up specifically because tumblr mentioned fanfiction in the post that they made and that is going to leave a lot of people misinformed.
Remember: Do NOT paywall your fanworks.
And rest assured, my blog will never be pay-to-read, even if this weren't a fanfiction blog. I think the whole thing is ridiculous.
Please please please refrain from paywalling any sort of fanfic. The lack of monetary gain from fanfiction is one of the core reasons we are legally allowed to create/share/read it.
Fair Use doesn't entirely hinge on whether or not we are earning money, but it is one of the biggest factors a court will consider.
The OTW (company responsible for our ability to legally create fanfic; also owns Ao3) already does so much for us legally, and we absolutely do not need to make their job any harder.
I think the thing that worries me so much about this tumblr plus bullshit isn’t the fact that creators can put their stuff behind a pay wall - for everyday regular bloggers that’s fine! Do what you want I guess.
But fanfiction writers CANNOT do this. Point blank PERIOD!
And some might say “oh but Aeryn it’s a choice! You don’t have to do it!” And, yes I KNOW this. I know it’s a choice. But younger fanfic creators out there may not be aware of the absolute shit show that went down several years ago where people SUED fanfiction writers over their work. And that is dangerous for many reasons.
These companies that own the characters we love do. Not. Care. About us. They will sue us the second some fanfic creator unwittingly uses this paywall to gain money from their fanfiction works. That is illegal. You CANNOT do that. You cannot gain money from fanfiction Bc technically it isn’t yours. The characters and the worlds are not ours and if just one of us gets caught doing it tumblr will get sued and we all know they don’t have the money to fight them and tumblr will go poof.
This post isn’t meant to be rude or demeaning or condescending. I am just genuinely so so worried about this because if it takes off, tumblr as a fandom space is as good as gone. And as much as I call this place a “hell site” I do love it. I love the community I’ve built here and the friends I’ve made and I don’t want to lose it because of the IDIOTS at yahoo want more money.
*sigh* so - please complain to tumblr about this and hope to god it doesn’t actually happen. For all fanfic writers sake.
tumblr wanting to capitalize off of the reasons why it has grown to the wonderful space it is is so wrong on so many fucking levels. and for that, fuck you tumblr.
Plenty of people here, myself included, don't want Post+. It's a paid subscription and will cause a lot (more) problems on this site.
What does it do?
- Allows blogs to create paid subscriptions that followers have to pay to see blog content. This can cause a lot of problems, as plenty of people come to Tumblr since it has never been a monetizable website.
- You can't block people who "support" your blog, meaning people can bypass the blocking system to harass blogs, just at a price.
- Creators have other outlets for these services, like Patreon.
- Again, nobody wants to pay for Tumblr posts.
Now, how can you help stop this?
By filling out Tumblr's Post+ survey! This allows you to give feedback about the Post+ system and what you would/wouldn't do. You can use this to directly inform Tumblr that you DO NOT want the "Post+" feature. If anyone has anything to add to this (info, updates, etc) I encourage you to! Keep resources current!
tagging a few people, PLEASE signal boost this (im too scared to tag big blogs, but feel free too)
