Art and writing is keeping my sanity-level up

Call me Lin, I'm a student, I'm tired, I write and I art. Current fixation: BNHA. Across the spiderverse. Naruto. reallytiredstudent on Ao3. Use whatever pronouns tickle your brain, gender is an endless abyss that i have no idea how to navigate.

Masterpost

Last updated 17.08.2025

I have art here, mostly fanart (BNHA is my main obsession rn)(we ignore the Naruto hyperfixation that came outta nowhere and hit me from behind the head), and some original as well. My art and bnha fanart are the ones you need to filter soley for the art :D (i will update this masterpost regularly)

Fanfiction part:

BNHA:

reallytiredstudent on Ao3 with my two (longer) on-going fics 'I thought this would be simple' (Fake Date AU Todobaku) and 'Tensions' (Fantasy AU with Todobakudeku).

For the Oneshots we have the two in 'A love letter in tragic' (tdbk, if you want to cry, tw mcd) and 'Standing on the edge of a future undecided' (Shinkami, Villain AU).

The Oneshot collection about the BNHA girls:

'Ryuko vs the HPSC or In Which Ryuko Proves A Fucking Point' (no more explaintion needed, character study)

'Accidental Vigilante - Heroics alone can't buy you dinner' (Ochaco becomes a Vigilante)

'A gym meeting after midnight' (Miruko meets Ochaco)

'Never Meet Your Heroes' (Chaotic Rumi&Hawks friends, Ochaco as witness)

'Only the powerful can grant mercy' (Fuyumi being an unhinged villain/vigilante

'Holders of the braincell' (Ochaco and Fumikage solidarity in dealing with their mentors)

Still about the bnha girls but not oneshots:

'Nobody here knows anything about being subtle' (Ochaco in her early vigilante days)

'I paint the world they way I want it to be' (Graffiti artist/vigilante Mina)

NARUTO:

'Hellions shouldn't be left unsupervised' (Long fic about how Genma helps turn Sakura in a lil hellion)

Current status of things:

Tensions: Surprise! I added chapter 20! This work is not abondend I am just very bad at staying focused.

I thought this would be simple: Chapter 25 is in the works. i got distracted lol

The AU where My-Kyuu exists: Working on the longer piece about Mina as an Graffiti artist/Vigilante. first two chapters are up!

The random Naruto fanfiction that has taken over my life: two chapters of that are up! i got to 120k so i decided that's enoug buffer to start posting.

Reposted cuz I wanted to share it. It’s an old idea, but I still think it’s a good one. The first contract Ebisu earns on his own is with the spiders. They’re like toads, but in a evil version. The spiders will work for you in exchange for sacrifices. If the spiders are small, you can offer small animals, but if the spider is too big, you’d better have something substantial to offer it or you might end up being the sacrifice yourself.

Ebisu accidentally summons the spider queen.

Thesis statement: The popularity of "found family" is a great thing, especially as it celebrates the importance of non-biological, non-romantic relationships. However, an overemphasis on this relationship model can lead us to undervaluing philia in favor of storge, in much the same way that an overemphasis on shipping can lead to undervaluing philia in favor of eros. It can also lead to an erasure of the differences between philia and storge, treating these two types of love as interchangeable instead of celebrating the distinctive aspects of each.

[incomingalbatross]

...Yeah, this could definitely be an Entire Literal Essay, actually. This is...not the short version, but it is the shortest I can manage.

So my main thought is that Friendship is the hardest form of love for our culture to see as distinct and important in its own right, and “found family” often (though not always) ends up as a sort of...middle ground between that point and the “Only Romance Is Important” idea. In a ship-dominated culture, Friendship is often reduced to Level 1 Romance, and—at least in some ways—a found-family-dominated fandom culture can end up reducing Friendship to Level 1 Family.

In practice, I think that....even when we know that we don’t see or want to see an important relationship as Romantic, a lot of us still struggle with the idea of Friendship by itself being equally valuable or important. So we equate “familial” with “important” (because family is undeniably as important as romance, right? Or at least it’s a lot easier to make that case—and also, there is the not-at-all-insignificant benefit that it marks your view of a relationship as CLEARLY platonic!), and then we try to fit every relationship we love into a clearly-labeled Family-Shaped Box, in order to affirm its importance and give it legitimacy that “just friendship” might not.

...which is, ironically, what shippers are sometimes doing when they seem to be putting every relationship they love into a Romance-Shaped Box for the same reason. That’s the highest-status box there is! Don’t you think this relationship deserves the highest Relationship Rank??

But Friendship—philia, using the Greek word (or at least using it as C. S. Lewis uses it—isn’t a weaker form or “first stage” of other loves. It’s its own form of love. Not lesser, but different. And if we keep following our instinct to “legitimize” it by conflating it with family/storge, we end up doing both kinds of love a disservice.

(And I am definitely including myself in the group of people with this instinct! There’s a fandom I’ve gotten into recently that—as not infrequently happens—has a central relationship you could easily consider “father-son,” “best friends,” or a mixture of the two, and there’s variance within the fandom. I personally view this relationship pretty much purely as “best friends” in my own interpretation, but...a few years ago, I would have been much closer to the “father-son” camp. And even though I’ve consciously changed my approach to character relationships over those last few years—mainly due to a variety of other fandom exposures over the past few years, and the pro-friendship opinions I‘ve formulated while thinking about them—I still have some of those pro-familial instincts I entered fandom with! They’re very much what I came here with, and even though I now like other approaches better, they’re still in my brain.)

The disservice to philia comes in the fact that we are still not celebrating it as a non-romantic, non-familial form of love in its own right—which stinks, because it’s great!! and important to humans!! and we should all appreciate how wonderful Friendship is without feeling like we have to turn it onto another kind of relationship once it passes some Importance Threshold. It’s also a less-important disservice to specific fictional relationships that we try to fit into a Family Box and maybe end up misrepresenting or oversimplifying in the process.

The disservice to storge comes in the fact that, with the label of “Family” so highly valued in itself, it tends to get overused and slapped on everything until it’s started to lose all distinctively familial meaning. It becomes harder for us to explore the depths and beauties of distinctively familial love when we’ve lost the verbal distinction between “relationships founded upon specifically familial roles, a strong shared background, and/or an unchosen yet unbreakable connection” (which is how I would identify storge relationships just off the top of my head) and the “found family” definition of “any group of people who love each other not-exclusively-romantically and aren’t related.”

Personally, I kinda miss alternative labels like TVTropes’ “True Companions” or “Platonic Life Partners.” Characters don’t need to be spouses or siblings to be important to each other. They can be solely and purely—though not “just!”—friends.

Kishimoto literally could have let Sakura have sage mode but just didn't

Like, she has near perfect Chakra control, why couldn't we have seen her messing around with senjustu like Naruto?

So, if Kishimoto hadn't been a coward, what do you think Sakura's Slug Sage Mode would have looked like?

I have actually wondered about this many times and tried to come up with something myself a few other times... This was my favorite so far~

awwww he’s so happy!!!!! click here to kill him with hammers ↓

OH MY GOD WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT

[bl00dalchemist]

The other day i was talking to @oh-no-its-bird about a modern au where akatsuki is just in jail and it was so funny i had to draw this.

Bonus of Suigetsu being a real one

[bl00dalchemist]

#naruto#naruto shippuden#uchiha itachi#uchiha sasuke#hoozuki suigetsu#honestly. itachi deserves this#presumably the duos are all cellmates in this au#obviously nagato and konan are terrorists and kakuzu is in for tax evasion and/or being a loan shark. maybe other money crimes too#most people assume kisame has an assault or murder charge but he's actually in there for high treason#or he would be if that was still a thing in japan but since it isn't he's officially in there for insurrection instead#that said he DOES have a body count. that's just not what he's in for. the world is truly built on lies....#deidara got sent to juvie for a bomb threat. and then made a bomb in juvie and got sent to big boy prison bc he was almost 18 anyway#sasori did the exact same thing as in canon only without the magic stuff. he made people puppets#they caught him bc he tried making himself into a puppet and. well. hospital#no one is entirely sure what ''tobi'' is in for. or who he actually is. or why they let him wear a mask all the time#only kisame knows that tobi has never been sentenced for anything; he's running his criminal empire from the prison bc he thinks it's funny#he gets away with it bc the guards all think he's the ghost of the executed criminal whose grave the prison was built on#(it's madara) (unclear whether or not he's actually dead) (he definitely was buried down there tho!)#white zetsu and black zetsu are two separate people with the same name. they aren't related but everyone assumes they are#black zetsu is in for corporate espionage. white zetsu was eating people#hidan is. basically the same tbh? he's on death row. they've tried to execute him twice but both times he survived#he once od'd to prove he was immortal and. well he's still kicking? so who knows#orochimaru was in there and then he just kinda left? now he's oto high school's chemistry teacher. unclear how this happened#oh uh konan is in a men's prison bc of transphobia i guess...? yahiko was in juvie with her and nagato but he got in a fight and died#naruto is still trying to get sasuke to change his mind about oto bc uhhhhh sports rivalry#but sasuke doesn't care about sports and oto offered him a scholarship. which he also doesn't care about#he picked oto bc it's in a shitty neighborhood and he wanted to give itachi a heart attack#it IS a good school tho. like if you survive going there you'll get a solid education. lifelong mental scars but sasuke already had those#anyway for itachi - he and shisui had a ''let's kill our family (not sasuke) and then ourselves'' plan but only shisui pulled off part two#and it turns out premeditated mass murder is enough to get you tried as an adult!
