a oldschool-ish confession blog for ghosts cbs, and sort of ghosts ard, ghosts uk (Mod is a minor, don't send me creepy messages) also pfp isn't a ship

[woodstoneconfessions]

Blog intro! (read before asking)

Dear residents of Woodstone Manor, this "askbox" has mysteriously appeared, you may use it to declare things anonymously. (RP blogs welcome basically)

anyways hi this is a blog for people in the Ghosts UK and US fandoms to send in anonymous (or not) confessions (ex: HCs or AUs, ghosts related memories, opinions on new episodes or old episodes, countries you wish had a spin-off) and I'll share my opinion in response

Guidelines include :

Be a nice person! No sexism, racism, abelism, homophobia, ace/aphobia or transphobia.

Do not use this blog to start arguments with others (unless your a rp blog doing it in character)

Do not send asks without backing up your opinion specifically if it is anti-a-character

Nothing explicit, sexual, or nsfw

By the way, I have three other blogs so I'll be pretty busy and it might take me a little while to check my askbox!

I post 6 times a week at most if I have enough asks.

please be kind or I will try to drown myself in a lake /reference

I can also make icons sometimes if i really feel like it, other shows I like include, School Spirits (fav character is Simon), Horrible Histories (thats how I got here), Anne with an E, Dropout TV, Finding your Roots type shows, cosy detective shows, and Jane Austen adaptations.

Tags I use :

Ghosts US - #ghosts us, #ghosts cbs (also occasionaly #sam arondekar and #jay arondekar)

BBC Ghosts - #bbc ghosts, #ghosts bbc, #ghosts uk

German - #ghosts germany, #ghosts ard, #der geister

misc.

I am a minor, dni if your a 18+ blog, this is run by a singular mod (you can call me Maudie if you need to lol get it its a pun this is the funniest thing ever right /sarcasm) I use she/her pronouns and identifies as a cis girl but I'm okay with they/them and he/him to!

Hi everyone, this blog is going on a hiatus! I really love this fandom and getting to be a silly place for people to share their thoughts, but a combination of school + cyberbullying + loss of interest in the show itself has led me to decide this is probably the best decision for the blog right now. So many people have been really kind and supportive of this blog, and I want to thank you so much for that. If anyone wants to create a Ghosts confession blog while I'm gone that's totally fine btw. Bye for now, Woodstone Confessions.

I've noticed that all of the pairings the writers hint at are mainly opposites, which is pretty interesting

Issac x Nigel were on opposite sides of a war, a bit of a unique case compared to the others

Thor x Flower pairs someone with a thunderous temper with someone all about peace and love

Pete x Alberta has someone who loves rules and guidelines!! paired with someone who doesn't, and prefers to have fun

And Hetty x Trevor is a bit similar in that aspect

All are fun ships! So definitely smth to take note of. The contrast between the characters is probably a good hook if you want to write a pairing many will enjoy. It also adds a lot of wiggle room for character arcs and such :]

Hands down I feel so bad for Jay 😔 He has so much patience for dealing with the army of needy people he can't even see or hear mostly. Someone get this man an award

no 1. ghost dad award

seriously he at least needs a vacation or a cup of tea or something for dealing with all these ghost hijinks

[woodstoneconfessions]

I feel like I'm kinda betraying being a nisaac fan by giving up but it's hard when there isn't much to go of on. Of course I will be happy if they get back together but I'll have to fill in the blanks of how they get there instead of the show showing us. I guess it's more of I cheered for them early season so it's hard to let go being a fan if that makes sense.

yeah, that makes sense. I really liked the ship when it was first introduced, but the way they are/were writing it more recently isn't my favourite

[woodstoneconfessions]

Let's see if I'm correct that you only post positive things about Flower and Thors relationship. I think they are only together because they are a safe choice for the writers they don't have to worry about writing for them seeing as people forget they are in a relationship. Even the drama they had set up for them this season of Flower being more sober is lacking. They need some flavor In their relationship because it's stale as bread. If you don't post this I am correct if you do then I stand corrected.

Leave my fricking blog alone.

this is extremely condescending no matter what my opinion is of this ship. I post any respectful well-intentioned confession. If someone with a negative opinion of this ship wrote a respectful ask sharing their ideas and opinions I will post it, but every single ask with that opinion so far has been rude, condescending, or straight up breaking every guideline on my blog. Have the day you deserve. Bye.

It’s so funny how you were begging people to send confessions, then post them maybe once a week, come back and say you’re going to post a whole bunch, and then post only one and leave again?! I really hope someone who’s actually reliable creates a ghost confession blog where they actually post the confessions about the show – you’ve basically just wasted everyone’s time.

I am so sorry. I am a full time student because I'm still in school and 2nd quarter mid-terms are coming up so I've had a lot of work. Plus winter holidays. I am trying as hard as I can. My friend suggested advertising the blog and I didn't expect it to work so well. Also when half of my ask box is asks telling me how much I suck It does not make one enthusaistic to answer asks. I do actually post confessions about the show, my schedule is in my ask guidelines.

Thank you for your flipping ask.

I wanted Kyle to stay. For at least one or two more episodes but it would have been fun to see Jay, Sam, and Kyle become a trio of besties and see episodes of Sam getting jealous of Kyle and Jay's relationship over something or the Ghost getting jealous over the Living relationships. Also think how there is always 2 different plots, it would have been cool to see the mischief things the ghost could get into with another living.

But What do you think could have been a different plot line for Kyle?

sorry for answering this so late.

This could be a really cool plot if done right, but Kyle Jay and Sam all being friends would need to be written *really* well

anyways I think Kyle should be a really good baker or something and teach Jay how to make like... Mary Berry Paul Hollywood level deserts (maybe for a christmas special?)

and how to make them smell really nice for the ghosts

and Sam would just be having fun taste testing and the Ghosts smell testing? until... the Ghosts stir up some random holiday drama

sorry about how randomly christmassy this is I might be 1. slightly still recovering from the Ghosts UK ending and 2. in the middle of planning the holidays

have a great day, and happy holidays!

Here's a very unpopular one: I love Flower and Thor together - at least when the writers remember that they're dating :) The episode where they have their first real date and we learn that the death of a former boyfriend left Flower scared of committing to just one person is actually one of the most touching ones of the whole series to me. I also love how Thor is so willing to try to improve for her by being less ragey and how she realizes she accepts him totally as is. And obviously they're different, but somehow that's part of why it works!

I'll make myself even more unpopular: I personally prefer Flower/Thor to Nisaac and H-Money.

I know this is obviously very unpopular here, so thanks for letting us confess!

No problem, I love running this space.

Almost every single Flower/Thor shipper I've met has sent an extremely respectful ask, and I think they are quite cute together when written well. I wish the writers would remember them too, there are so many opportunities for cool plotlines with those two. I feel like their relationship (platonic or romantic) has improved both of them for the better.

anyways have a great day ! byyeee :D

I feel guilty confessing this, but Pete annoys me more than any other ghost. I know I shouldn't feel that way because he's a genuinely great guy, most of the time the kindest and most ethical ghost of all, but he just...kind of grates on me?!

That makes sense, I find myself relating to Pete a lot because I am also extremely oblivious sometimes (though really good at noticing details othertimes but thats unrelated) but I get how people like him/me can be annoying sometimes with the extreme positivity and stuff

thanks for sending an ask :D

[woodstoneconfessions]

Hey, not a confession, just wanted to say I'm sorry you're getting so much crap. You're doing a great job at being impartial and understanding and letting people voice their opinions and it sucks people are being jerks to you. Keep your head up and never hesitate to block, ignore, or step away if you need to.

thank you so much :D

I am trying really hard. And its good to know that some people actually respect my boundaries for my blog.

have a lovely day !

[woodstoneconfessions]

i don't understand why thor and flower don't get more love !! they're one of my favorite couples on the show

thanks for the ask :D

they can be really cute together sometimes, and I kind of love their dynamic

[woodstoneconfessions]

Confession time - I think Flower/Thor is very underrated as a ship. There's something about them that I find not just entertaining but genuinely sweet - at least when the writers remember that they're dating :)

Thanks for sending an ask!

I have found that most Flower/Thor shippers are really respectful about shipping :) I have a neutral opinion on it mostly but I really get why people love it, they can be really cute together sometimes

I was very happy to see them address Isaac being a colonizer in the last episode ( and him immediately running away from that conversation felt very in-character )

Makes you wonder how his first interaction with Sas was. Waking up from the hospital bed and there's some guy just staring at you

yeah it was good they finally acknowledged that

also I'm so sorry I know this is a semi-serious ask

but the image of sas staring at Isaac is kind of funny

like you died and and due to your (genuinely horrible) crimes that you commited despite being an okay person otherwise, so now this guy will *stare* at you for the rest of time

[woodstoneconfessions]

I wish Crash would appear more in the show. He’s one of my favorite ghosts outside the Main 8, and I honestly want to know what is opinions are surrounding the drama that happens around Woodstone on an almost daily basis. XD

i really like him too! his commentary could definitely add some interesting opportunities

Thank you for giving us this space to confess!

*deep breath* Sam is my least favorite character. I feel like some will attack me for disliking female characters, but that couldn't be further from the truth - on this show, for instance, Hetty, Alberta and Flower are all my favorites. It's just that something about Sam's character doesn't connect with me. If I'd read a description of her, I'd expect to love her - I relate to awkward, eager women all too well! But something about the casting or the writing or something just doesn't click with me or feel authentic, and the character isn't very relatable, likable or interesting/entertaining to watch for me.

Objectively, she's a great person, and she's certainly more helpful and patient toward the Ghosts than I'd be! I just don't really enjoy her - which sucks, because I really wanted to.

if you have watched the other shows (UK, Germany, Australia, etc.) do you like their protagonists more? /genq

I like Sam a lot sometimes, but I actually usually find myself relating more with Jay and he is one of my favourite characters.
