HELP ME FIND A FIC!

im going crazy insane trying to find this one Spiderman/deadpool story where at their first meeting Spiderman bites Deadpool and it turns out that whatever neurotoxin venom that he has works as a pain killer for Deadpool.

Deadpool proceeds to switch sides and basically follow him around like a puppy because he finally has pain relief.

DOES ANYONE KNOW THE NAME???

Question! Is the vort from Galaxy Days like, actually a bad guy, or is he just a jerk? Cause from his perspective, is he actually saving Dib from Zim? Or is that just what he's saying, and like the moment that Zim is dead then they were going to drop Dib out an air lock? I want to know if Dib actually did need saving that they would have actually helped.

It’s more like a misunderstanding, like the space pirates *think* Dib is in need of saving and are doing him a service because of the assumption that all Irkens (and therefore Zim) has brainwashed him or enslaved him somehow. 

If Dib *was* in any actual danger and still involved with Irkens somehow, then yes, they would have helped. Most of the space crew has had bad experiences with the empire and have bonded together from those events, so they could relate.

What the hell is Didi going to SOUND LIKE. He's being raised by one word only mobei, and all the words Shang? Like, the little extra at the end with him laying on the floor makes me think that shang is gonna come on to here. and that Didi is gonna take after his "papa" with a side order of lots of dramatic body language. or is it going to be more of, no words when serious, and so many words when i like you, sorta thing?

I was kind of imagining that after Didi gets over the bratty child phase and goes through the rebellious teenage phase, he would just be... exceptionally even-keeled and generally good-natured, a self-proclaimed and self-aware and self-indulgent spoiled brat, here for a good time and to make his “parents” proud. He’s got the Mobei-Jun glare when he’s upset and dislikes someone, then babbles and talks with his hands like Shang Qinghua when he’s excited. 

I like the idea of Mobei-Jun and Shang Qinghua raising a kid who becomes a person neither of them really expected (his own person, independent of them), who has clearly has a good life, and has no doubts that he’s loved. Like, absolutely none. Totally unlike MBJ and SQH’s childhoods. So he can knowingly act silly and dramatic and overconfident and a little bit carefree (his best friend is Sha Hualing, so that helps) in the full knowledge that his “parents” will indulge him and look after him. A far cry from a scared, bitey child. 

(I was already trying to slip in the idea that Mobei-Jun is doing his best to raise Didi to be able to be happy. He’s just struggling with shitty family stuff.) 

I can’t remember who mentioned this, but yeah, Didi would absolutely tag along on Sha Hualing’s bullshit ideas and the Immortal Alliance Conference, etc.. Shang Qinghua would probably try to ground him from this plot-relevant bullshit (Didi: “It was Sha Hualing’s idea.” Shang Qinghua: “Then you KNOW it’s a shitty idea!”), but it doesn’t help that Mobei-Jun’s opinion here of teenage demon antics is probably: “Did you win? It’s fine if you won.”

Do you think Mega's first Celebrity crush would be Bill Nye the science guy?

LOL I’m sure he admires him! I tend to base Megamind’s experiences of romance/sexuality on my own (ace spectrum) experiences, though, and I don’t really get celebrity crushes? At least in the way people usually describe celebrity crushes. Admiration, yes, enjoyment of watching them, yes, but--oh, I don’t know. Even fictional characters, the ones I like best, I’m more likely to fantasize about being them, rather than fantasizing about spending time with them myself.

Eva and Lace

So like, Lace calls Eva sister right?

though i've not had Eva talk about Lace at all.

which, you think she would right? if they were sisters?

I don't think Eva can perceive Lace. Cause Eva can only see the 'Crest' of a bug, and not their real form. And Lace isn't really alive in a way that most or herself would consider alive.

And i bet that most bugs can't 'hear' Eva. Maybe not even Weavers. I think it might be a situation where only Ghost could see ghosts and only after they got some upgrades. So i think Eva was basically born a ghost.

And more to the point, i think Lace and Eva are twins that should have been a single person. Because Eva has overflowing soul/silk, but no body, and Lace has a body but needs to have silk/soul from an outside force.

. . . thinking about writing a new story, all the ways i can combine my made up lore and the LORE of Silksong has inspired me.

but also, I DON'T WANNA WRITE A LONG FIC.

IT GETS ME SO TIRED.

But the fucking ways i could weave all of this together. the ways the story could combine and continue on.

. . . its gonna be so long.

So like, I'm in my Thirties, and i was once the horniest little fuck ever. Just, my hormones were out of control.

But i was also an Aro/Ace, so it wasn't like i was really doing anything with my honry-

but the reason for this post, is that as i've aged and my hormones have taken a nosedive, the fiction i read and the plot lines that attract my interest have changed wildly.

Because now, i just . . . don't give much of a shit about Romance anymore? Like, i still like it fine, but i used to turn my nose up at any stroy that didn't have at least a romance sub-plot, mostly because that was the most familiar emotional connection between characters.

And like, now i just . . . it's not that i want platonic relationships but that i want them to be . . . REALLY WEIRD. i want those relationships to be fucking insane. I want to see a group of three people who have huge Divorced energy, but who have to much history to not be incredibly intimate with one another. I want relationships like Attack dog and Owner, relationships like Reluctant god and devout worshiper.

And i do not want them to fuck or kiss even a little bit.

I believe the first rule of telling, writing, creating, a story-

Is deciding how it ends.

The most important step is the last one, because unlike living, the destination is the-

Well, I won’t say it’s the most important part.

The climax, the beginning-

The patterns, the themes-

The characters, the villains-

Those can all be the most important parts.

But the ending will make or break a story.

A dissatisfying ending can ruin everything you’ve built, and no ending at all is a poison! It doesn’t matter how much fun the story is, it has to end, if you keep lengthening it, if you keep dragging it on-

Then you will be left with a giant tangled mess that no one ever reads to completion because either no one has the stamina or because the writing suffered as the Author was exhausted by their own creation.

So before you begin.

Decide on an ending.

Some stories can only be written in reverse, Tragedy only made possible when everyone knows exactly how the story ends.

Other stories have surprise endings, but even then, hints to how they will end must be littered throughout the work or the surprise is nothing more than a cheap trick.

A repeating phrase, a gun on the wall, a slow spiral of a villain or the arduous rise of a hero.

They must be connected from beginning to end.

So the end must come first.

That is not to say the end must be set in stone, that it cannot be shifted and changed as the story come to life.

A happy ending can become a tragedy as an Author gains more understanding of their characters, and a Tragedy can be dragged from the edge as the characters refuse, refuse, refuse, to allow THAT to be their end.
