5: Your muse roughly grabs my muse’s arm.

She was one of Lotor’s generals. Of course she wasn’t a pushover. But Hunk was still surprised by Ezor’s strength as he managed to get close enough to engage her in close combat. 

Though he was not a trained soldier. Not yet. He had tried to take her out with his bayard but she had that camouflage and she was upon him in seconds. They had exchanged blows. He had managed to land one. She had given him a busted lip and several bruised ribs. 

He lunged at her. Desperate, trying to do something. He was loosing this fight and she knew it. Ezor side stepped his punch and grabbed a hold of his arm.

All Hunk had time to register was that she moved and his whole view of the world shifted as he was twisted around and forced to the ground. Pain shot up his arm as it was twisted and pushed at a bad angle up somewhere behind his back. “AAARRHHH!!!”

13: Group project

It wasn’t that Hunk had anything against working in groups. It was just that he didn’t really know anyone else in this class. He looked around to see if anyone looked friendly enough and available for a group. There was Nyma who was eyeing him. Which made Hunk quickly look away. He had been down that path before when teaming up with Rolo. NOT fond of doing all the work for a pair of slackers.

Instead Hunk turned to other way and checked who was sitting next to him. “Hi!”

how do you deal with having to see someone you can't stand on a daily basis

Running away from your problems isn’t usually the best thing to do, but for whatever reason if you’re unable to approach that person, it may be best to ignore them. If it’s a family or classroom situation, avoidance or surrounding yourself with friends is possible. I had a person I had no wish to have any sort of contact with and was in my first class when I was in high school. I simply avoided this person, and over time it got easier. If you can talk to this person and they have done something to wrong you, you need to talk to this person about it. If you need friends, get them; there’s nothing to be ashamed of. If there is no way to talk to this person, minimize contact with them and live your life, without them. You can do it, friend. Eliminate toxic people from your environment, and you’ll do great.

(sj problem anon) okay but ive done that already. first thing i ever did was ask them to tag stuff and they got mad at me (i said that in my other message, remember) and yeah i told them that it makes me anxious. that whole telling people 'hate is wrong' thing doesnt get very far here or with my friends. i'm probably going to just leave tumblr. thanks though

Do what’s best for you. If you need to quit tumblr forever or for a little bit, do it. You’ll be better. I’m sorry I couldn’t help more, and I wish you the best of luck with your friends. I hope they understand soon.

(cont) my friends have kind of sort of hinted that they wouldnt be friends with me irl if i unfollowed/blocked them and i dont have any other friends really. i dont really know what to do. i just am so freaking tired of people be mad and angry all the time. what should i do about my friends? im to the point where im ready to leave tumblr all together tbh

People will be offended no matter what. People are getting so angry over so little. I see plenty of similar things on my dash, though maybe not as SJ. Your problem isn’t stupid, dearie. You need to talk to your friends. “I understand this oppression, but they’re not ALL like that. They’re not all bad people. I don’t like seeing any kind of hate. Could you tag it? It’s giving me anxiety.” is the general message you should send. Tag it cuz it’s triggering for you. If they again refuse, it might be a good idea to unfollow, even if they are your friends, or temporarily leave tumblr. Cisphobia is an actual thing, and I personally don’t understand all of it. If anyone calls you ignorant for asking them to tag cisphobic posts, you need to tell them that hate is wrong. see if you can completely block any SJ posts (like if they tag them at all, block common tags you see with them). Tumblr has recently become pretty hateful just because people have different opinions. Good luck, and I apologize if my advice doesn’t help. (feel free to add your own guys)

my sister's desktop recently broke and she freaked out about it so my mom bought her a new computer (which cost quite a bit of money) and had it delivered so it came to us the next day. now my sister keeps complaining to me and telling me that the computer sucks which is really pissing me off because my laptop died in the beginning of October and i'm still waiting on being able to get a replacement. i dont want to be bratty or a bitch but shes seriously annoying me.

This situation is a sucky situation, for sure, and I’ve been in one pretty damn close. You need to ask your mom about your computer, search up some stuff like on your phone or the family computer, find something cheaper you like, etc. You also need to talk to your sister, ask her (gently) why she’s  being kind of ungrateful, especially since you’ve been this long without any computer at all. Unless she can give you an actual almost scientific answer (such as “well, there’s not as much memory as it said there would be” or “it refuses to connect to the internet” or such), you need to give her a break down. Usually it’d be a lot easier if it’s a younger sister, but you need to tell her it’s not cool. She’s rubbing it in your face and you really, really don’t appreciate that. Let us know how it goes, alright? Best of luck!

i tagged something with a really rude comment and i got an ask that corrected me and i apologized but now i feel like everyone will think im a bitch and if i make a post about it i'll look like im playing the victim but if i delete the post/tags then people will think im just running away from my problems

Hey there, anon. Remember that this is just Tumblr, and you needn’t worry about everything. Despite how bad the Tumblr community makes that seem, you simply vented, and that’s not bad at all. Someone found your tag rude, so you changed it. That should be the end of that. Remember that it is YOUR blog and it’s YOUR decision what you put on there. Don’t let this community, which can be quite toxic and abusive itself, make you fear posting. Post what you like, dear, and if anyone gives you flack, come send them my way. I’ll handle them. If anyone does send you anything harmful, even if it’s on anon, you can block and report that person. Simply click the little x on the bottom right hand side of the ask. Then, go to your settings, scroll down, and report them. Hopefully this helps dear! Tumblr is supposed to be a place where you can express yourself without fear of hate. Sadly, that’s not always the case. But don’t let that deter you from doing what you love.

Best of luck, dear.
