I’m choosing violence today so: top 3 or 5 characters most mischaracterised by the fandom and/or most overrated character?
most overrated: if i see one more "squall is misunderstood" or the idea that squall should be let back into nevermoor no fucking trouble whatsoever like he didn't spend a hundred years systematically murdering children and helping the wintersea party seize control of the other three states like. no. cannot do it
top three most mischaracterised: tbh arch? every time i see arch in fic he is never like any canon appearance of arch but like. he has seven or eight scenes total so i get why that happens. also squall is. uyeah. see above. idc if he might have had good intentions at some point he did do. all that. and jupiter! yes he is kinda absent but also he is present more than people think but those moments arent really plot relevant so the scenes arent there like. he's not gone 100% of the time more like 40%. he could be there more tho but like yeah
can you expand on “cannibalism as a metaphor for eating people” bc I’ve never heard this take before and I’m intrigued 🧐
so basically i eat toualive because of my eintense desire to consume you whole in all your entirety because iknow no other way of love of devotion of expression, because eating you will be my final meal in a way, beacse you are the only thjng that will fill me after eating, the obly thing taht will soothe the beite of hunger of the immense desire to bitw, to taste you because i never have been quite goof aat feeling. always the eater, always the wodl and mever the lamb. sometimws i aldo widh to be the lamhb.
a fake lottery is CRAZYYY my god imagine being the kid who got picked
it was so intense I can’t lie, we were all super into it. The girl who got picked was in my “family” and the teacher had to stop us from throwing erasers at her lol
for the drabble prompts: “I always thought the choice was mine / and I was right / but I just chose wrong” from the laurel hell lyric prompt list for any character(s) you want!!
i debated which character/s to write for this for a bit but ultimately i had to go with nikolai bsd because i think this line fits him very well. uhh sorry jupiter ik you don't know bsd but i have very bad brainrot. also this isn't edited bc i don't feel like it right now
(prompt requests are still open)
warnings: heavy religious imagery & symbolism, character death/dismemberment (#just fyolai things)

Fyodor’s hands have always been cold. This was true when he was alive, when Nikolai grabbed hold of him and the only thing separating skin from skin was a pair of stolen gloves, thin enough to allow the iciness of Fyodor to seep through into Nikolai. And it is true now when all that remains of Fyodor is a severed arm, when Nikolai cradles the dismembered limb to his face and each finger is a lifeless icicle caressing his cheek.
This is what he wanted.
Congratulations, Dazai told him. Fyodor is dead. You did it. You killed the unkillable, you transformed yourself into Judas by choice. You brought the thirty pieces of silver to the men who wanted him dead, placed the proper tools in Dazai’s hands, and turned your back while he was crucified. You did it.
You proved your own free will.
You chose this.
Behind him, Dazai and Chuuya murmur to one another—about their friends back in Japan, about administering the antidote, about Dazai’s injuries, about Sigma. They talk about Sigma like Dazai is the only one who has ever cared about them. Like Nikolai didn’t save them from death, like Nikolai isn’t the only reason they were here and Dazai was able to use them in this game. Thirty pieces of silver. Thirty coin bombs never detonated.
Jesus was executed with two other men, one on either side, men who actually deserved the punishment they faced. To hang on a cross and slowly bleed out, nails through their hands, nails through their feet, their suffering on display for all to see.
Fukuchi is dead in Yokohama, if Dazai’s intel is to be believed. Sigma will never wake, if Fyodor’s words were true.
Which one of them begged for forgiveness in their final moments, and which died still rotting in their sins? Does it matter? They are gone and Nikolai is still breathing and this was his choice. This was his choice. This was his choice.
But Judas took his own life after betraying the one he loved.
Fyodor’s hand is cold. If he raises in three days’ time, Nikolai will be long gone. The Savior has the power to raise the dead, but why waste your time on someone who sold you out for thirty stray coins? Nikolai knows the stories; he grew up having them carved into his flesh each Sunday. He knows who lives, who is resurrected, who is redeemed. And he knows who turns traitor, then lets his grief and shame consume him, and is never mentioned again.
But Judas didn’t have a choice. Judas was merely a pawn in God’s perfect plan. Nikolai chose this.
Nikolai wanted to be free, so he took Fyodor’s life in his own hands and he made the choice and he has proven that no cage can hold him inside. No imitation of God can control his whims. He is free by no hand besides his own, but there is something inescapable forming in his chest that calls itself grief, and Nikolai is beginning to fear escaping one cage only leads you into another.
He always believed it was his choice, to bring about Fyodor’s death. He believed in his own free will, and he saw his plan through to its end. He was right—there is such thing as the existence of choice, because Fyodor is dead and his arm is clutched in Nikolai’s hands and no one sane would choose to kill the only person who ever understood them.
The choice was always Nikolai’s.
But now that the irreversible has come to pass, he fears he chose wrong.

i'm watching techno vods ki. so when c!rivals met second time on the mountain, when dream gave techno the map, dream said they could meet here [on the mountain]. soooooo do you think dream waited for techno to show up for hours and vice versa? and do you think they just missed each other by like an hour and thought that the other couldnt make time?
;___;
Did he go there after the escape? Did he stand there, waiting, hoping, praying that c!Techno would show up? Did he think about going back to the house? Did he miss their banter, how c!Techno made fun of him but also always had his back?
Did he go there after the shock wore off? Did he realise that he lost c!Ranboo, but he could lose someone else if he didn't do something? Was he disappointed to see no green on the mountain? Did he think about all the homeless jokes and wish for a home to be able to check?
