Master post!

Alright! Figured I'd do one of those, with the number of fics I'm going to have and all haha

Sonic Movie fics

Let them run from the violence + Make your tea and your toast, from the of toothy smiles and stolen scrap metal series

Dramatic coat swish, from the Stobotnik merfolk AUs series (this series might take forever to get updated because of my main fic, but not abandoned! Promise!)

Left me for dead, the eldritch!Stone AU! Now fully complete!

Sweet tooth (tv show)

A different life, which I'm thinking about rewriting, when I have time to do so!

Alright that's all for now! Have a good day everyone!

He looks so well adjusted in this, it's killing me. He looks normal, how did this happen? I'm not mad, I just wanna know

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

I just learnt that newborns need to be fed with the first hour of being born and uhm. This does complicate things for me. Hm.

[chipswizardyarts]

The child cries, forgotten instincts arise.

So… Marineford, Huh? :’) I’m still not over everything that went down!! So here’s a very non-canonical version of events where Croc instinctively moves in to comfort the son he hadn’t even known was still alive, let alone had been the key to his undoing as a Warlord. This theory goes HARD!!

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

Wait-wait w-wait a second- WAIT! I LOVE IT BUT ALSO THE RAMIFICATIONS! THE IMPLICATIONS!

Terrifying ex Warlord cradles sobbing rookie that just lost his brother despite said rookie having destroyed his life's work. The papers would go nuts. The people at Marineford would GO NUTS!

And Jimbe, who promised Ace to take care of Luffy immediately having to grapple with the fact that Crocodile apparently wants the same but there's no time to unpack ALL of that!

The ideas I am getting...

[ghostboidanny]

I love dp x DC stories in which Ghost King Danny is summoned in his full Eldritch form and scaring the shit out of everyone. I also like it when it combines with aus of him talking in ghost speak and the translation gets wrangled, so he sounds a lot more threatening than he means to.

But in those stories ... his name doesn't really fit. What Eldritch God would be called Danny? Even Phantom isn't that scary.

Then I realized that if ghost speak gets translated wrongly and Danny said his name in ghost speak ... wouldn't it be translated wrong too?

And Daniel means God is my Judge in Hebrew while Phantom of course is a kind of ghost.

So,

The Justice League has summoned Danny and he doesn't realize that he's in his Eldritch form. His skin is black and filled with galaxies constantly being born and dying. His eyes are two endless black holes. His hair is the flash of the big bang. He's terrifying and awe-inspiring.

As he speaks, it sounds like millions of beings screaming in agony before breathing their last breath.

And then Danny says "Hi! My name is Danny Phantom, the Ghost King, how can I help you?"

But what the JL hears through the translation is: "I am the Judge of Gods and the restless Dead, Ruler of the Infinite, for what purpose hath thee summoned me?"

Now that's a fitting name!

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

Ok. Well. Now I need to put this in my fic. I am realising it's going to take me forever to write it. I'm not even going to start posting it until I at least have 10 chapters pre written like-

This will only be relevant after chapter 30, mostl likely, and I'm not even writing a crossover fic, so idk who would summon him AT ALL. I'm making my life harder for myself is what I'm getting at. Too bad I'm having fun so I don't actually care! This is a future me problem!

To refute my sister's argument that Labyrinth is a "pedophile" movie.

Yes, she will never see this but I'm so frustrated with her lack of media literacy 💀

Okay, so let's start at the beginning. We got a teenager who is very imaginative and has a fantastical imagination. She is READING a book called Labyrinth. THERE A GIANT OWL THAT IS PERCHED THERE. So, naturally I've drawn the conclusion at least by the end of the movie that the Owl HAS to be Jareth.

So, Jareth took inspiration for the ENTIRETY of the world she was plunged into because of that book. Sarah herself talks about the Goblin King falling in love with her and there is a statue by her vanity that looks shockingly like the Goblin King. So....the Goblin King took inspiration for the world from her room, her book, her preferences, her likings.

Honestly I don't even think the Goblin King IS the Goblin King he's just some sort of fairy like entity. Now was he going to even turn Toby into a Goblin? My guess is that he was going with the script and he was just a regular fairy (changeling shenanigans or not).

So was Jareth in love with her? HELL NO! I literally got no chemistry vibes from any of those scenes. It was obviously just a ploy to appear as her fictional crush and appeal to her and trick her and get the baby brother. SO NO NOT A PEDO MOVIE BRO. It's low-key a very low tactic to appear as something meant to draw someone in and then twist it. But again, he is a villain. Why are we surprised?

Also the whole entire speech was absolute BS with the whole blah blah blah fear me love me i'll be your slave. AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MOVIE she literally asks for her brother back and he just says "no" 😊

So bro was just saying shit to say it and trick her. He is cruel. He probably would've turned her into a Goblin or something if she ever agreed to that proposition.

The entire ballroom scene while I think it was pretty it was beautiful but also something was terrible wrong the entire time. It was after all a distraction made by Jareth and meant to run out the clock to get to her brother. The scene was brilliant because it was twisted beauty. There were masks that looked enchanting yet horrifying. The fellow partygoers were also mocking at her and leering at her.

Every illusion Jareth creates is beautiful on the surface, but there's always something subtly wrong beneath it.

One of the MAIN themes of the movie is that things are not what they seem. It's also a cautionary warning to be careful with "charming" things. The ballroom scene is a perfect metaphor for this: that gut feeling you get when something on the outside seems okay but it is truly wrong.

I also appreciated the Labyrinth sort of being a great allegory for life itself. Sarah made friends along the way because life...you know, its easier when you have friends. People also at every turn were unintentionally and intentionally somehow delaying her journey to the Castle due to their own motivations and reasons.

Btw he is also not above killing her with that whole cleaning machine thing. This guy just LIES LIES AND LIES. And honestly I think its better to allow villains to be more complicated in their tactics of manipulations. If we're not allowing villains to be evil, then like...what is the point? Its such a fairy thing to do to appear and shape shift as something they are not. All in all its not a crazy idea to appeal to teenager's fantasy/dream in order to secure his prize which is the child (a common thing for fairies in mythology).

Also as far as I know the actors had a respectful relationship with each other. No weirdness.

Anyways I thought it was a fun and well done movie. I will not stand for this slander.

Will my sister ever see this? No. But I needed to get it out cuz I just take it nowadays cuz I'm tired of arguing with her.

[darklinaforever]

So...

It’s crazy to be that dense. The person literally says it: it’s a coming-of-age story. It’s also about sexual awakening. Jareth is the embodiment of Sarah’s fantasies. He only does what she has planned for him in the narrative. You’re being stupid to say, "You can't ship that because she's 15!" JARETH IS A PRODUCT OF SARAH'S MIND! SHE IS THE ONE IN CONTROL! JARETH CAN ONLY PLAY THE ROLE SHE HAS PLANNED FOR HIM!

@ellensferatu

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

So, I get that there's a lot of discourse on this in the Labyrinth (1986) fandom, so allow me to give my two scents.

Sarah's in control of the Labyrinth, whether she knows it or not. Jareth is the embodiment of everything she wants but is afraid of (her sexuality, most importantly). In the movie, while he IS predatory towards her (and that's their game anyway, she's trying to get her brother back, he's trying to stop her by any means) he doesn't break boundaries or seems creepy. He lets her decide where their relationship stands. He doesn't take advantage of her, just makes sure she wastes time and forgets her brother (mainly thinking about the ball scene here).

Dare I say, he lets her win in the end, because she's matured and proven she can be responsible and think for herself (She uses logic throughout her journey, like when encountering Sir Didymus, or the Fierys).

The movie ends with Sarah going home, partying with her friends and enemies, because she has managed to process whatever she needed to during her time in the labyrinth, through play, which is how children process things (like trauma).

I've lost my point. I think this was about understanding why people see Labyrinth as creepy, but also ultimately it was not the movie's message at all, which seems rather obvious if you watch it again. The movie can be uncomfortable because SARAH is uncomfortable with growing up.

Or something. I need a nap and less internet.

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

Heyyyyyyyyy, guess who remembered he hasn't uploaded for his main fic since February? Yeah, it's me. Sorry? In my defence, I am a busy man, lots of work and all that.

Anyway! Here's chapter 5 of Make your tea and your toast, my sequel to the Stobotnik childhood AU

Enjoy!

Forgot to celebrate Pride month, but definitely won't forget Disability Pride month!

So happy disability Pride month to everyone, no matter if you feel "disabled enough" or have been having the hardest year mentally, you are valid. Find joy where you can, you deserve sunshine

Man I feel so bad for Katakuri being the one damn honorable fighter in a family full of backstabbing, underhandedness, and pettiness. Everyone else out here planning to do people dirty with assassinations. Straight up lying to Big Mom’s face about ‘I killed the prisoners’ and ‘they stole the cake’. Trying to sabotage people’s one-on-ones with poison darts and mirrors and eavesdropping. Let’s shoot the groom when he goes to lift the veil! I bet they poisoned the cake! Let’s all gang up to go curb stomp Straw Hat Luffy while he’s down.

Like damn no wonder Katakuri is everyone’s favorite — he’s the only dependable motherfucker who clocks in on the Big Mom Pirates. Someone needs to poach that guy, I don’t care if he loves his family he can visit them on the weekends. He is way too competent and too respectable to be working security for this sorry bunch of nepo babies who can’t even figure out how to coordinate their resources long enough to take out half of the straw hats

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

Ngl... I'm thinking about poaching him in one of my fanfictions.... we'll see how I feel about it. I have too many things to write and no time.

Entrapta: —energy if we were to increase that value. On the other hand, we could redirect the power to the inverse grid, which would effectively lead to an output of voltage equal to the grid’s data storage multiplier when—

Entrapta: Sorry, sorry. I get wrapped up, I can be quiet. You’re focusing on something else. I know I can be…annoying.

Hordak: No, I am finding pleasure in hearing your process. Feel free to hyperfixate as long as you wish.

Entrapta, hearing wedding bells: hdfwdiaijw yeah ok yeah sure cool cool.

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

This canon. This literally how they work together all the time, this is their normal.

Man I love Entrapdak

Chopper giving the younger group of the crew a proper sex ed because they grew up without one apparently: And this stage is called ovulation.

Zoro: We have olives inside us?

Chopper: Aaaaaand there we go, I've scheduled a hearing test for you. Anymore questions that don't give me migraines?

Nami: Yeah, uh, I think I'd prefer an olive inside me instead of a uterus.

Chopper: That is not a question. But I'll keep that in mind.

Luffy: Can we have olives?

Chopper: Get out.

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

Writing Crocodile and his fruitwanis is actually so good ahhhhhhhhh! I have been writing for two hours, it's late and I need sleep, but damn. This man and his beloved apex predator pets.

If you're wondering, yes this is about my pregnant crocodad fanfic. Don't ask for details, he's suffering enough as is. I think I might break someone.

[darthraven213]

When I say chat, I am referring to the invisible people watching my life as if it were a gaming stream.

When I say GPT, I am referring to Gunpowder Tim, who blew up the Moon Kaiser.

Thank you very much and have a good day ❤️

Katakuri is Tired

I think Katakuri is Tired of having such high expectations on him and everyone relying on him. And that's why he asked Luffy to come back to defeat Big Mom after he's done in Wano, why he stopped fighting so Luffy could escape woth his crew.

Big Mom's dream is to create a united world which is why she had so many children. However, she only treats her children kindly when they are young. The moment they are adult enough in her eyes, she treats them as tools. Like using Pudding for wedding assassinations, since it had been confirmed that this isn't the first time that Big Mom had staged a fake wedding with Pudding as the bride, only to kill the groom and anyone associated with him.

But most of all, it's how Big Mom and the ENTIRE family put so much responsibility and pressure on Katakuri. He has to be the perfect son. He has to be the strongest. He cannot show weakness. He has to protect his siblings. He never lies on his back.

With all that on his shoulders, is it really a surprise that Katakuri let's Luffy go on the condition that he returns to Totoland to defeat Big Mom?

Considering how calculating and volatile Big Mom is, even to her own children, I always felt that that particular scene showed just how TIRED Katakuri really is. He's fighting nonstop against Luffy. He's purposefully injured himself so that he would have a fair fight, despite it ruining his image of being the perfect son and big brother.

Like he loves his family and will do everything he can to protect bc he felt like he failed horribly with Brulee. But hearing how his family talk about him, praising him. All I see is how heavy the burden on his shoulders are and how he's basically the family "fixer" and the "reliable one". I mean they're all saying howbhe never lays on his back and that's sounds so exhausting and suffocating.

And the hearing him ask if Luffy would come back to defeat Big Mom and hearing Luffy say that he would. God, the relief in his voice. The subtle drop in his shoulders he probably had. The feeling of weight being slowly taken from him?

The man is in his mid-forties, right? No fucking WONDER he ended the fight the way he had.

The man is ready for Big Mom's end.

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

YES. THAT! EXACTLY THAT!

[papercranesandpride]

I remember years ago, long enough ago that I was still using either Tiktok or Instagram regularly, because that's where I saw this, long enough ago that unfortunately I do not remember the username, I saw an older trans woman responding to a comment asking "how come we see trans women from your generation, but never trans men?" And her response was simple. "Unfortunately, it's because most of them are dead." Between lack of safe and legal abortions (which, hey, look what's an issue again), the HIV/AIDs crisis (which still is lacking in approved treatments for trans men, and they're still likely to be denied PrEP/PEP even when they should be eligible as sexually active queer men), and how many of them chose to take their own lives after being forced into marriages and other women's roles, a lot of the trans men that should be elderly right now did not make it.

And now, when I find myself making the mistake of going on Instagram, I get to see trans men themselves talking about how historically, trans men didn't do anything for the community, and so we need to step up now. Which, first of all, that isn't true, but second of all, if trans men's contributions are lesser, that makes a lot of sense if we listen to that trans woman talking about the trans men she was in community with back in the day. It's very hard to advance the trans cause if you're not alive.

Anyway. It's a really chilling answer. "Where are all the elderly trans men?" "They're dead." And I just wish more people saw that tiktok and listened to it and really took it to heart, now that we're in the age of "well obviously trans men have it so much easier."

I know this is not fandom or fanfiction related, but this is important to me

[shuggymaniac]

Is Croc's clothes made of sand? can he just change up his clothes whenever? I bet Buggy would love to swap clothes on a whim. I've got a small fever.

I don’t think Crocodile’s clothes are literally made of sand. He’s a Logia user (Suna Suna no Mi), so he can turn parts of his body, and anything he’s touching/ controlling, into sand, but his fancy coat, pants, and hook are normal clothes. He just looks extra dramatic because he’s constantly surrounded by swirling sand for effect.

But I might be wrong when you remember how Buggy’s clothes gets chopped and reassembled along with his limps, but that could be because Buggy didn’t realize it yet, kind of how Luffy always had that unrealistic cartoonish power but as long as he believes it then it would happen kind of way. (But that is another story.)

That said, yes, he can casually reform or adjust sand-made elements around him whenever he wants. He’s done it multiple times in canon.

And Buggy? Absolutely would be obsessed with swapping clothes on a whim. Imagine:

Buggy, swanning around in Crocodile’s massive fur coat that swallows him whole, striking poses: “Behold! I am the new flashy Desert King! This coat is divine! Look at the drama, the flair, the pockets! I could hide an entire circus in here!”

Crocodile, standing there in Buggy’s ridiculous striped clown outfit that’s painfully tight across his chest, looking utterly done with life: “…Give it back before I turn you into glass, you clown.”

Buggy: “Never! This is mine now! It’s got style! It’s got presence! You can keep the circus look, it suits your gloomy personality perfectly.”

Mihawk, sipping wine in the corner, watching the disaster with zero emotion: “…. Both of you look ridiculous. Especially you, Crocodile. The stripes are an affront to fashion itself.”

Buggy, immediately spinning toward Mihawk for validation: “See?! Even Hawkeyes agrees I look better in this! Hand it over forever, Croc!”

Crocodile, sand already swirling threateningly: “Touch my coat again and I’ll bury all three of us.”

Mihawk, sighing, completely unimpressed: “This is why I prefer solitude.”

The Cross Guild fashion wars would be legendary. Also Mihawk is just bitter for now being included.

[thequietkid-inthecorner]

Mihawk just wants to be involved, poor guy
