#cinder rambles

I will never successfully write a pwp fic, all my one shots devolve into me as a really lame jigsaw going "dear readers, at the end of this fic is smut, but to reach the smut you must first endure the Angst Section where I pelt you relentlessly with melodramatic pining and minor horrors"

Why was Cinder so hated in the past she didn't do anything...

I saw a post that was like "the fact people are harassing jk rowling over just some mean tweets while stephen king can write disgusting things 24/7 and recieve nothing but praise just shows that this really all just about sexism" and it pissed me off so bad.

Listen, stephen king is not perfect and you're allowed to not like him, dare i say, you're allowed to even hate him. I personally like him but I will not lie to you and tell you he's never written a racist trope or been creepy about women before. However, jk rowling isn't just "making mean tweets" SHE'S ENGAGING IN HOLOCAUST DENIALISM. SHE ACCUSED A WOMAN OF COLOR OF BEING TRANS WHEN SHES A PUBLIC FIGURE FROM A COUNTRY WHERE BEING TRANS IS ILLEGAL. HER BOOKS ARE ALSO FILLED WITH PROBLEMATIC TROPES.

Stephen King, as far as i'm aware, has never actually done any of the problematic things he's written about. He's definitely said shitty things before, but i've never heard any serious allegations levied at him of anything he writes about, neither murder, cheating, pedophilia, or racism. As far as i'm concerned stephen king is actually a leftist, like about as left leaning as an older white dude could be. He outright advocates for trans rights and is anti book banning, as opposed to rowling who literally denies that trans healthcare books were burned by nazis.

Here's a thought: Maybe the reason people hate jk rowling and not stephen king isn't sexism, maybe it's because they both hold problematic views and write problematic content, but one of them is using their platform to actively lobby against minorities.

It also probably helps that one is a good writer and the other isn't.

OMG!!!! Ok ok ok ok ok- hear me out. We all know Sage DESPISES Wild, right? Now… imagine, a reader who prefers Wild over Sage. Everyone knows about it. I wonder how our little angsty boy will take that knowledge… and Hylia forbid if reader prefers Cal over Sage… He hates him even more.

Discuss.

This is SO funny because my wonderful Significant other (@wayfayrr ) actually prefers Wild while I prefer Sage.

It's funny because...here's the thing. Sage has such an interesting ego in the sense that this will go one of two ways. One) He either won't care. Depending on his stance with Reader? He won't give a shit. He has his own things to do and he doesn't care if reader wants to waste their time on someone who looks like they picked a fight with the road and lost.

But if he does like reader? It eats away at him. It absolutely just picks and picks and picks and he's livid. He's doing everything he can to destroy that relationship. Little whispers in reader's ears, maybe he's taking something of their's and putting it wild's bag, maybe he's picking a fight only to act innocent once Reader appears. Hard to say, the point is, he's doing everything in his power to destroy that little relationship before it even has a chance to blossom.

Should Cal be the object of affection it might be a lil different. Because Cal, for all intents and purposes, is like...as close to lore accurate link as possible. Like in AOC he's an absolute BEAST. So he's a pretty even matchup for Sage in that way. However, he has the emotional capacity of the rock he ate for lunch so that might put a damper on things.

Or does it?

Because imagine, if you will, a reader who teaches Cal how to love and how to cherish and how to have emotions further than hungry indifference. Then Cal forms that bond. That bond that he's aching over, craving for. he thinks about it 25/8 and is following three steps behind reader at any given time. Because then? Then should he and Sage have to face off?

Then you have something far bigger and far more...intricate in my opinion. A fun concept! I'll toy around with it a bit more and see if i come up with anything <3

I'd like to imagine how Cinder- 1. Got back to Salem's base. 2. Managed how she explained what Salem's group is 3. Who got them back in one piece...technically 1/2 since Cinder had an arm gone. 4. How Cinder was able to tell her lackeys how to get to Salem's place

5. What both (Em and Merc) were thinking doing all this bizzare stuff...
