Im Gonna Kms /j

i have returned after spending the past like... 2 days reading qoaad whenever i had free time? which was, unfortunately, not a lot, so i took a while

so, basically, ive finished the whole of qoaad in two days, and now have nothing to read bc the wait time for sword catcher on my library's libby app is 6 weeks

but regardless, i will never be the same again. qoaad has changed me, yall. i dont think i will ever recover from kitty. i wait even more impatiently now for twp

also, ive almost read every book in the series (that isnt a kickstarter)! now ive just gotta read notable shadowhunters & denizens of the underworld (not the updated one bc, again, i dont have any of the kickstarter books. sob 😭.)

when the whole fandom is just geniuses lol

random thought I had the other day but never shared but. Ty lowkey parallels King David. I was thinking about QOAAD & the Battle on the Imperishable Fields, and how it's kinda weird Ty is mentioned multiple times to be using slingshot because that's not a typical shadowhunter weapon we see. then it occurred to me that literally a battle where giants show up and Ty helps "slay" them so to speak. like David & Goliath, which is also previously mentioned in QOAAD by Emma

where Julian's words are equated to David's stones. and by the way, David is said to have five stone and who's the fifth Blackthorn to try & speak to Julian & Emma? Ty. and this is what happens when he does.

not only that but King David of David & Goliath fame is also the David of (biblical) David & Jonathan fame, which the parabatai law draws inspiration from. aka the thing actively going wrong at that very moment. Biblical Jonathan also dies btw. and you wanna know what the icing on the the cake is? David's dad's name is Jesse.

theres no way this isn't a purposeful reference but I have no idea if it's like. just CC having fun or something that had Implications. food for thought.

I read the first sentence and i was like "wait that sounds kinda familiar-- VOLTRON???"

Wild. this is the second time ive seen these two of my fandoms overlap

kit: 10,000 years? that’s like 1,000 + 10!

ty: times 10

kit: whatever, dropout

AO3 Was scraped for generative AI

Perhaps this is already common knowledge on this app, but I have yet to see anything about it in my feed. If you are unaware, an AI tech company called HuggingFace recently had a user by the name of nyuuzyou scrape our beloved AO3.

This scrape included over 63 MILLION fanfics written by the hard working, passionate, and incredible people of every fandom. The scrape was conducted with the intent of using the data to generate AI fanfiction and fiction. If you have a fanfic on AO3 that has an ID between 1-63 200 000, and is publicly accessible (not restricted to registered users), then your work was scraped and used in the process.

AO3 admins are currently searching for solutions and some kind of retributions. Until then, make sure to limit your works to registered users and show the real writers that you value their time and contribution to fandom.

Tilly death do us part.

Pearl grinned as she tied up another bin chicken in her store. She was convinced Ren was stealing them for eggs, though she didn’t know why. Maybe it was some friendly competition from Gem or Impulse, her neighbors in both business and housing, and she’d find them hanging around her base later

Tilly, he’d made a pun. At the time, she’d been too caught up in panic to catch it but she’d had plenty of time to rethink. Laying in bed at night, restocking, gathering materials, building, Scott’s goodbye wouldn’t leave her head.

Death did them no part.

History does not take kindly to lovers.

Jimmy sits in his explosives shop, hat tilted over his eyes and leaning back in the crates of tnt. It’s much hotter here, and brighter. The terracotta reflects the sun back into his eyes and the heat sticks to the ground, maybe a trip to a more temperate climate was in order.

He’s got a box in his lap, closed and locked. Grian had given him an incredulous look when he’d asked for a clipping of his red string, he’s sentimental like that. It’s tied around a poppy and a spyglass, tucked against the side of the box filled with trinkets and pictures.

They weren’t really lovers, he smiles, but they were close enough for the universe.

It takes two to tango.

Impulse swings his pickaxe down into the stone, breaking out more room for his base. It’s not quiet, he can hear the river outfront and his neighbors arguing. His mind drifted back to being poolside with Bdubs and planning how to break up the other couples.

They’d pulled them apart, planted seeds of doubt, and it would’ve worked if they hadn't underestimated the trust of the other duos. They’d tripped up Scar and gotten cocky, they’d been the ones who tripped over Cleo and Etho.

It takes two to tango, and theirs was the smoothest.

Red at night, sailor’s delight. Red in the morning, sailor’s warning.

Etho is watching the sun rise over the server when Joe makes the comment as everyone enters the tcg arena. Beef wonders if they should move inside incase it rains, Etho finds himself admiring the way the sun sets the world aflame.

He’d done that once, side by side with Joel. The world never stood a chance as they took vengeance for the relation-ship. It was almost ironic how they’d found their end in burning lava. As it starts to rain, he chuckles to himself.

They’d delighted in the red flames burning down the server, but there’d been no rain to save them.

Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

Cleo’s balance wavers as they build up their city, and they panic. They throw their weight backwards, falling against the wall and feeling the wind rush out of their rotten lungs. There’s a sharp pain as they collide with the stone, and suddenly they’re back on the diving board.

Martyn had caused them so much pain, and in turn they’d taken so much from him. He’d been their greatest weakness, and they’d let him roam free. They’d angered the witch because he left them.

They made the mistake of letting their enemy walk away, when they really should have kept him close.

History repeats itself.

Scar is paving out more of Scarland’s road when his tower Warden lets out a roar, making him jump. It rings out through his head, merging with that endless echo, and he has to take a second to re-compose himself. Grian comes up to him as he sits on the edge of the flower bed in the roundabout and takes a seat.

Jelly wanders across the road, and suddenly they’re back in the panda sanctuary. They’re bound together once more by Scar’s recklessness. Scar is following his every whim and fancy as Grian desperately tries to keep them alive. In the end, they always find their way back to each other.

They will always find each other, and it will always be their undoing.

Hate it when ppl tag smth thats from shtv as tsc in ao3 - and not "the shadowhunter chronicles - all media types", but "the shadowhunter chronicles - cassandra clare". Like, theres a distinction for a reason. i dont wanna read stuff abt shtv, i wanna read abt tsc. tag ur works correctly, pls

Okay added in the cheek scar! You can honestly barely see it

Okay so I made Pac fanart. It looks like shit, but tbh it's, 1, my first piece of digital art, and 2, my first fanart. Also, my pen tool thingamy was broken so I drew this with my finger. Enjoy!

Closeups under the cut:

You know what I’m really curious about? How the fuck will Jessa let Kit go with Ty?? JUST LIKE THAT??? They’ve been protecting him for years with all the wards and stuff and they will just agree to let him go for probably a crazily dangerous (for him at least) mission??? There has to be smth to it, either Kit just disappears from home or idkkkkkk

Show Me The Way, Chapter Three: Spilling Secrets.

He pouted, grumbling under his breath. “Fine… but you have to let me see el Señor Cuervo.”

“Bien- espera, ¿qué?” Missa replied, “no, no, no- Chay, I can’t.”

“Por favor, Missa!” Chayanne pleaded, “Just once! ¡Solo una vez!”

Missa struggled internally, trying to say no. But he knew he couldn’t resist Chayanne’s pleading for long, and he finally gave in.

“Vale… you can see him. But! You have to wait for me to tell him. ¿Trato?”

“¡Trato!”
