MistyTheDritten

I’m here for the mcyt and dragons. And maybe some Star Wars and Star Trek.

[mistythedritten]

Welcome to my Tumblr!

I'm a fanfiction writer and like to draw fan art!

Feel free to send an ask about my writing, art, or anything else you feel like! I love getting asks about random stuff.

Honestly? I just love asks in general.

Here is the link to my Ao3 if you want to check it out!

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

More about my art and specifics under the cut.

About my page

I'm both c! and cc! Dream-centric, so there is that. I do reblog some other stuff, but it's mostly other mcyt fanart. I try to stay out of discourse, but I will always tag it and put it under a cut so people who don't want to see it don't have to.

Edit: okay, the stuff about discourse has changed, but I think that’s the nature of being part of dtblr

My art falls into two categories: art of my fics and dragons.

My fics tend to be romantic with a fair bit of angst but always have a happy ending. I don't have a specific ship I write, but it's always about Dream.

I’ve started poking into other fandoms, and writing for them, but who knows where that will take me

All of my stuff is tagged with "Misty's things", or at least most of it is. I'm still figuring everything out!

I have added a tag called daily questions, where I ask a question a day to mutuals! If we are mutuals, feel free to ask to join!

About me

I'm from the Southern United States. I'm studying English with a minor in education, planning to get my master's in Library Science! I use she/her pronouns and am a legal adult.

I think that covers just about everything. Feel free to send me an ask if you have questions!

have we considered a grockdrian scenario wherein adrian falls in love with grace in what is considered pretty fast for eridian standards… except it is unfortunately nowhere near fast enough for the human lifespan?

think about it. rocky and grace's bond is something impossible to measure up to. after all they went through, they latched onto each other in almost no time at all. their love is one of a kind, and it's just not something that can be replicated.

adrian knows this. they know that they will never be able to love grace the way rocky does, and perhaps grace will never love them the way he loves rocky.

but that's fine. for now, they can make room in their life for him. and maybe someday, they can learn to love grace.

and, for a while, things are okay. rocky has two mates, and those two mates get along. maybe a little begrudgingly from adrian's end, but grievances fade with time.

they get to know each other. adrian talks to grace regularly. starts calling him a friend, at some point.

then, the feelings start. they're slow, creeping up on them over the years. a small twinge of something when grace smiles. a stutter of their hearts' rhythm when grace laughs. lingering whenever rocky and grace hug. straining to listen to the soft sounds of them kissing.

but it's nothing, right? they push those feelings aside. not because they're suppressing them, but because they attribute affection to fascination—they mistake their love for curiosity. they think grace is a scientific interest, and they think that for a long time...

by the time adrian realizes they're in love with grace, grace is on his deathbed.

he is old, frail and plagued with the many illnesses that come with age. he forgets many things now. sometimes he doesn't recognize rocky or adrian. still, he smiles at them all the same.

adrian has spent the last few decades studying the human body, tracing the features of grace's face, mapping the curve of his smile.

it is only then that they realize: this is an infatuation that goes beyond the sciences. they've fallen in love with grace.

why now? why not a century from now, when the memory of grace will be but a plesant ache settling in their appendages? why not decades before this, when grace was still at his physical peak, when they still had the rest of his life to spend together?

why now?

why did they fall in love with grace after he already spent an entire lifetime waiting for them? why did they reach out to grasp at an opportunity that already passed them by?

why did they realize what they had to lose just as they were about to lose it?

[tht1guys]

Tiny eridian grace has essentially become canon to me in a swap au. no one give me a grace thats bigger than canon rocky, give me a grace whos so tiny that buff rocktiz can easily carry around and manhandle. give me a tiny grace who adrian immediately falls in love with when they arrive on earth and who becomes a well-loved figure on earth for everything he's done to save them with rocktiz.

Started with just the idea of Grace laying on Rocky’s ball while they talk about their love lives and now it’s almost 4am and I have drawn a shirtless Simon and now rocky preforming a sensual interpretive dance… this is getting away from me.

i get so emotional every time i think about fanfic culture. it's just so beautiful that people are writing and anonymously posting these thousand-word stories about characters we all love and not even getting any money or public fame from it. it's literally just for the love of the game.

shout out to everyone who participates in fanfic culture, be it reading or writing fanfics. you are contributing to such a lovely thing <3

[failure-to-adult]

ALSO

Fanfic is as old as writing, if not older. A HUGE body of work in Ancient Greek was literally just Homeric fanfiction. And Homer himself may have been working off older stories, making it fic of fics.

The most primal human urge upon hearing any story is to write fic about it.

[headspace-hotel]

fanfiction is the original way of storytelling, it's intellectual property law that is the weird modern aberration

As a former humanities student, I feel it is my duty to reblog this one.

[negativepeanuthoarder]

no one:

c!Wilbur for no reason at all: hello children would you like to go to war

[negativepeanuthoarder]

#actually these kids can't make any choices for themselves ever. So really I'm doing them a favor by sending them to war#and if they don't do what I say they're being manipulated by evil outside forces sad but true” :/

Hi there, c!Wilbur! You're STILL a war criminal! :3

#Maybe c!Wilbur is mormon....

Okay I'm being /srs here but every time I see the "is lmanburg colonialist" narrative floating around I always circle back to this idea. c!Wilbur and L'Manburg more closely resemble joseph smith and the early days of mormonism (minus the polygamy and the leaders marrying children parts though) than they do a colonialism allegory. He starts a country that's designed as a grift, and then goes completely insane with it, attempts to overthrow a government, starts what's basically a war, and then his followers continue to assume he's the victim. Mormonism has deep ties to colonialism and continue to perpetuate it to this day but it's also MORE than just a colonialism thing.

#Ok wait I'm just gonna dump my thoughts in here because now I'm thinking about him again and I need to get it out or I'm gonna explode#C!Wilbur is a very interesting character but he's a incredible combination of all the things I despise#He's condescending he's controlling he doesn't respect other characters choices

This absolutely like the dude is a dick. He's rude and cruel and uses other people for his own benefits, throws tantrums when things don't go his way, and seems to dedicate his entire life to trying to make other people do things for him.

#And like as someone that grew up in a cult he's basically a cult leader for a while. Like cmon...#And then he martyrs himself?? He forces his dad to kill him because. What? His little commune didn't go the way he wanted it to?#And then he'll have the audacity to be like#Oh yeah people will be free in my country except if I'm not in control I'm gonna burn it all down#I don't give a crap about all the people who supported me because it was never about community it was about greed and power#and being better than everyone else"

He works so well as a textbook cult leader because this is exactly what textbook cult leaders do. They promote ideas of freedom and liberation and community when in reality they need total control to thrive, and will use that control to gain money, power, influence, and sex.

#And the way he talks about c!Fundy makes me sick. That is your ADULT son stop infantalizing him

Yeahhhhh this especially resonates with the mormonism idea because mormonism treats it's members like perpetual children. No sex, no alcohol, no coffee, no grown up decisions made without "god's" input, give your money to the church, let yourself be treated like a child, etc etc etc.

#c!Wilbur pisses me off lowkey#Like he's interesting but if I saw him irl it would take a lot of self control not to deck him#And he's from Utah

This exactly. Like I LOVE c!Wilbur as a character because he's a manipulative self obsessed controlling asshole who hurts people for his own benefit which makes him fascinating to explore, but I would NOT like him if I somehow met him in real life 😭

the fact that grace and simon would canonically be disabled4disabled is so important to me actually.

simon rubbing lotion into grace’s burn scars. grace walking simon through mirror therapy. the two of them doing a daily exercise regimen together to keep their joints healthy in erid’s gravity, helping each other with tough stretches and pausing for kisses. one of them having a bad pain day where they can’t get out of bed and the other tending to them with a smile. the thousand little gestures of love and care throughout the day — drawing a warm bath, bringing a favored drink and a handful of medications, massaging a knot out of a muscle, commiserating about the bad moments and celebrating the good ones.

[s0lanums]

and the sex too, because disabled people can and do have sex and we should be allowed to feel sexy about the ways we accommodate ourselves.

grace fucking simon and quickly realizing that his hip/thigh muscles just aren't having it today, so they flip over, letting grace lay back against the bed while simon rides him. the muscles in simon's left arm flexing while grace blows him, a sign that he'd be gripping grace's hair if he still had the hand. one of them randomly experiencing a pain flare in the middle of sex so they pause, the other giving them a therapeutic massage for however long they need, the mood never once shifting from sensual and heated. wearing braces and pain relief patches during sex and not only not ignoring them, but appreciating them, caressing them. sex on a day where neither of them has the strength to leave bed, where all they can do is press their bodies together and kiss and slowly chase that pleasure.

my mum has severe knee problems and needs a replacement. Today she was told she's too fat to be operated on and the knee specialist suggested she gets a gastric band - which also involves surgery. So my mum was like first of all you didn't read my file because it explains that I'm not fat because I eat too much second of all you said it's impossible for me to get surgery and then suggested I get a surgery about it? He then asked her her weight and height, didn't believe her answer, and made her prove it to him because she "looks fatter than that". So she was like so you also just entirely based this on looks instead of actual numbers?

[undead-moth]

My mom went through something similar. She needed a knee replacement and her doctor wouldn’t okay it until she lost weight, which was difficult given the whole knee problem preventing her from walking thing. He told her she was too dangerous to operate on and that there were just too many risks.

My mom tried to lose weight in vain for months before she finally gave into my begging her to get a second opinion. The first doctor she saw next scheduled her for surgery the same day she met him. When my mom asked about the risk of operating on her he told her that there was some minor risks for complication and that all she would need to do to alleviate the risk was spend an extra night in the hospital so that they could keep a look out for any complications.

There were zero. There were also zero complications when she had her other knee done, her hip replaced and her gallbladder removed.

Almost like the first doctor was entirely full of shit and just trying to coerce his patient to lose weight by scaring her for fucking nothing, even when she was living day to day in excruciating pain and desperately needed a surgery.
