Audrey!

one time i wrote a short story with my ocs. one of the lines was “the point is, you care about the guy. no homo. but also maybe totally yes homo. schrödingers sexuality. does the cat fuck dudes? who knows, but if he did, you’d support him 100%. and in this case, the cat is charlie. the cat that you’re maybe totally super in love with. maybe you should stop comparing him to cats if you’re going to say that.” i don’t know which davekat fanfic author i channeled while writing it but i’m not complaining

i found my old edgy poems from 8th grade

(they’re censored cause i posted them to tiktok earlier)

the funny thing about these is that NOBODY HAD HURT ME YET? LIKE DUDE WHY WAS I 13 YEARS OLD WRITING EDGY BREAKUP POEMS ON QUOTEV LMAOOOO

i wrote this back in 10th grade i’m literally sobbing

the fact that some of y’all saw the term “purity culture” and decided to apply it to FANDOM DISCOURSE to defend proshipping is DISGUSTING. i’m not even talking about the proshipping part, idrc abt that rn i’m specifically talking about the way you idiots are misusing a term that has LEAD TO PEOPLE DYING IRL because you couldn’t be bothered to google it before using it. do better.

FREAK! (affectionate)

Facts About Stars: a poem

Facts About Stars

Stars are only visible at night. If you tried to look at them during the day, it would be pointless. Of course, there’s always the sun, but the sun shines far too brightly to be safe to look at. 

As beautiful as stars are, you can only behold that beauty at night, in the darkness. 

Stars give off heat. They are overwhelmingly hot. No man should ever dream of touching a star. Only the highest of fools would ever dare to wish they could hold one, yet I am the universes court jester.

Stars don’t twinkle in space. They only do so through the atmosphere of a planet. If the atmosphere were to disappear, the twinkling would be gone. I’m glad I get to see them from where I do, with rose-coloured glasses crafted by the universe. 

Stars are born from within the clouds of space dust scattered throughout the galaxies. Nebulae. Nebulae are beautiful in their own ways. Colorful, misty, taking whatever shape they desire as they dance though whichever galaxy they reside in. 

But I prefer stars.

I’ll always prefer stars. 

Instead of doing NanoWriMo I will be doing something where I try to aim for writing an actual average of 400 words a day for the month of November in memory of Terry Pratchett, who as far as I know never thought telling a computer to write a book for you is a good way to hone your skills as a writer.

Bones, a poem about dysphoria

thinking about the owl house and how everything i hated about it was likely a direct result of 1. it being produced by disney and B. huntlow being canon (and yes i do think canon huntlow ruined a ton of stuff. i’m not exaggerating. it completely ruined hunter and willow’s characters for starters by taking their pre-existing cool personalities and changing them so the ship would fit a boring unseasoned girlboss x malewife dynamic. willow should’ve been aroace [she’d make more sense than lilith] and hunter should’ve ended up with one of the blight twins [id have preferred edric because the show didn’t have ANY decent canon mlm ships. and no, willow’s background gay dads and the implication of aladarius in the finale do NOT count. although i wouldn’t have complained if hunter had ended up with emira either] shipping is my special interest so like.. i get kinda aggressive about these things but also i think it gives me a bit of credibility on the topic. you can disagree but that’s just my opinion lol)

i remember at one point i made a list of stuff i hate about the show, and while i don’t have access to it anymore i remember that most of the stuff i listed was, in fact, very likely a result of those two factors.

like adding onto the anti huntlow thing, i think lumity also has problems for some of the same reasons huntlow does, albeit not as drastically. like it’s obvious that the creators decided on the ships BEFORE writing their character’s personalities which ended up working out in lumitys favour but NOT in huntlows. cause yeah, amity changed after getting with luz but it was sorta realistic? meanwhile after getting with willow, hunter fully stops being funny and loses his charm entirely. he was my favourite character until the Huntlow Personality Retcon happened. now i genuinely can’t stand him. if i wanted to see a boring m/f girlboss x malewife “bi4bi” (in quotations cause hunter never showed interest in the same gender at ANY point which leads me to believe that him being bi was an afterthought they threw in during season 3) fictional couple where the most interesting thing about it is the fact that it’s a gb/mw dynamic, i would simply watch a millie x moxxie compilation on youtube. and i don’t even like helluva boss. and i think that dynamic is overplayed.

like people always say “straight couples are boring” and they get hate for it but are they wrong??? when the majority of m/f couples in fiction are either “gender roles: the ship” or “reversed gender roles: the ship” it starts to get boring as hell. where’s the variety. like for example a straight ship i really enjoy is tim and sasha from the magnus archives, because they actually have personalities that compliment one another that aren’t just “he’s a simp and she’s strong!!1!” obviously we don’t get to learn a ton about them together, but that’s also a nice change. why do ships always have to be the main focus at the expense of a good story. and again: i’m saying this as someone whose SPECIAL INTEREST IS SHIPPING.

obviously there are worse ships than huntlow. i’m aware of that. but i also think i’m allowed to have and express my opinions. kay? cool.
