Mostly made to be helpful for those taking part in the OC Creator Bingo 2023 event, but if you’re one of my followers I hope you like this little guide to my OCs! These aren’t all of them, but these are the ones I talk about the most, and some I don’t talk about but would like to.

Cut off is here because this is a long post and nobody wants to scroll past it.

a few weeks back i looked up the source of “we deserve a soft epilogue, my love” because it’s such a lovely, evocative line and i wanted to know the name of the poet who wrote it and it was. from captain america fanfiction.
“in whatever manner it comes to be, love is never wrong, especially between one who has so much of it to give, and one so desperately in need of it” is from a naruto fanfic we’re living in a web of lies
“Those who have no gods or kin to aid them must rely upon themselves” is the rawest line I’ve ever read and i found it in the middle of an lotr smut fic
“There are many stronger people than us, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t get stronger too. Everyone started off as weak but because of our perseverance and desire to improve we get stronger and because we are weak, we know what we lack, and we strive to improve it. We keep improving and improving. They can keep looking down at us because we’re weak but if that weakling they mocked suddenly got stronger, isn’t that a big slap on their face?”
This is from a Kimetsu no Yaiba fanfiction on Wattpad.
“There is one thing I cannot protect you from, and that is living. Humanity is full of aches. To live is to face those and find the soothing joy among the rubble. You’re seventeen. You’ve more time left to hurt and heal. And I will be there, but I alone am not enough.”

I saw a post talking about how some of your mutuals will always be their url to you (even once you know their name), soooo
I think when I say “suspend your disbelief” people think I mean “stop using ur critical thinking” when in reality I mean “just because they didn’t spoon feed u information on why fairies can fly and there’s a giant rat for no reason don’t freak out”. just don’t be Mr cinemasins
some of u act like i just told you to turn off your brain and accept terrible plotlines and character development for two hours straight in the name of suspending disbelief when in reality I want you to have some FUN

The children are learning about the US Civil War. I can’t say it’s going well. (On the bright side, they’re very clear about slavery. We’re solid on that front. It’s the actual war we’re having trouble with.)
“Ms. T, why would his parents name him that?”
I frantically flip through the possible Civil War leaders they could be referencing. “… Well, you know how Stonewall got his nickname, and we’ve talked about Tecumseh, so there’s Sherman, and -”
“No, not them.” They roll their eyes at my ignorance, then pivot back to the point at hand. “That other guy. Useless.” As this describes a number of Civil War leaders, I blink uncomprehendingly at her. “You know, Ms. T, Useless. Useless Grant.”
“Um. … Well -”
Another child raises their hand. “Ms. T, I don’t understand number three.”
Number three is a question about the Battle of Bull Run, asking for explanations about a Confederate victory despite Union advantages. “What paragraph are you looking in?” I ask in a monotone, because I’ve been fielding this question all day.
The student points at the correct paragraph, even focuses in on the quote about Jackson holding off a Union advance. “It says Jackson and the men ‘screamed like furries,’ Ms. T, but why would that help?”
I cough. I cover my mouth with both hands. “That’s ‘furies,’ sweetie,” I inform them, still wheezing. “Like they’re insane with anger,” I elaborate, deciding to skip describing actual furies at this point in time. “Not … not like furries.”
So, here’s how the war is going, one week in: Useless Grant has been made general of the Union forces, but a bunch of furries are preventing him from gaining much ground.

"I could fix him" well I could be the one person he's nice to and soft with, while he remains just as unbelievably awful as ever to everyone else <3

what's your blorbo show? the show that has so few characters who AREN'T your blorbos that the characters who aren't don't even count. The show where you're spending most of your watching time going "there they are! the specialest person in the world!"? I'll start, mines Merlin
you’re just like the rest of them
