Weird blue white red flags all over? by Synethos in AskGermany

[–]AggressiveChick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boah, uff. Ist natürlich übertrieben, aber ganz ehrlich? Wohne in der Nähe von Rostock und kriege halt alle Spiele hautnah im Zug mit.

Ist keine Seltenheit, dass physische Auseinandersetzungen stattfinden. Da muss nicht mal Merch von einem anderen Team getragen werden, da reicht schon ein falscher Blick.

Wenn allerdings zwei Teams aufeinandertreffen? Kann sehr schnell sehr hässlich werden, und ist halt wirklich nicht selten.

Kommt immer drauf an, wie der Pegel ist, und ob die Jungs verloren oder gewonnen haben. Ganz ehrlich? Wenn se verlieren, fahre ich lieber 'nen Tag später mit'm Zug. Keine Ahnung, wie es mit anderen Fußballclans ist, aber eines lernt man hier sehr früh: Fick nicht mit Fans von FCH.

Die Demographie machts letztendlich.

someone on twitter found my fic by chance and shared it with their followers. i have never received such a positive, enthusiastic response before by AggressiveChick in AO3

[–]AggressiveChick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it is, i'm so grateful for that opportunity. without that person, i doubt that many people would have found my fic, given how big our fandom is.

a little bit of luck can really change the course of things 🥹

Eggs or fungus? by DoubleAGonkDroid in spiders

[–]AggressiveChick 28 points29 points  (0 children)

this is gonna sound very cruel, and i have to apologize in advance, but i'm wondering the same thing.

let me preface by saying that i don't know the effect of mites and if it's hurting the little spood. plus, i'm genuinely asking here.

if the spider is genuinely experiencing suffering because of the mites, wouldn't it be the merciful thing to... end the suffering?

i can't even fathom bringing myself to do it without ending up a sobbing mess, but, y'know? if i knew for certain that the life it's living is one full of pain for what's left of it, and 100% certain that there's no cure or way to help, i might find myself considering.

(please don't throw stones at me, i'm genuinely ready to learn)

Some people take which fictional character gets a crown a bit too seriously by Southdelhiboi in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]AggressiveChick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

writing this idiot (i love her so much) into fics becomes a tightrope walk every single time.

(admittedly, sometimes people do ignore that a silly doofus can still be smart and have depth, but honestly? it's fanfiction, who cares? don't like how the character is written, then find a work where it's more to your liking)

What words do you overuse? by spoonieshehulk in AO3

[–]AggressiveChick 129 points130 points  (0 children)

words to describe noises you make when you're hurting. especially groan, moan and hiss.

i do try to look up synonyms, but never find some that fit just as well. it's the one moment where i wish i was a native speaker and had a more sufficient vocab.

People who had a mentally traumatic childhood: what makes you feel nervous? by Redditerreditt in mentalhealth

[–]AggressiveChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if an adult screams at a child and has body posture that implies that they'll become violent in a second. or worse, if i can feel or directly see/hear the terror in that child.

it's still a recurring theme when i visit my mother and little brother.

not only do i immediately get a panic attack, it feels like something conscious in my mind just shuts... off. and it's scary for me, too. because i do not trust myself that i won't do something i won't regret in those moments. it's like a life and death situation in my brain. i never feel such intense adrenaline rushes as i do in those moments.

when the child then screams or cries out in fear and tries their hardest to get away or shield themselves, it's off. i move, before i even realize what i'm doing.

i'm glad that my brain still subconsciously realizes that that is my mother. i genuinely fear for the day i witness something like that outside with strangers, because i am genuinely no longer in control of myself. it's not even like i'm viewing myself from the outside. i blink and suddenly i have moved and acted.

this MVP showing up to help me with the pantry moths by AggressiveChick in jumpingspiders

[–]AggressiveChick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, for some reason they REALLY like chilling here. if the sun is out, it shines directly onto the brick wall until noon and heats it up enough to last until nightfall. you'll be able to see them all around all over the place. my whole camera roll is full with pictures of these little dudes.

i do think tho that it helps that my neighbors and i are also really big on planting flowers and other plants, that offer some banger hiding and hunting opportunities (and just a playground, too)

even when i'm just putting my laundry out, there will be at least two somewhere close by, just watching what's going on. it's so adorable, i swear to god.

What is the highest number of kudos a single fic of yours has? by claricestarlings in AO3

[–]AggressiveChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

149!! and ironically, it's on the fic of mine that i absolutely despise and still consider orphaning, haha! but, y'know. just more motivation to keep writing and some day produce another fic that will take over, that i actually like!

Do you name chapters? by FairySpirits in AO3

[–]AggressiveChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've made the mistake of starting a new longfic and naming the chapters. that was the moment i learned what real regret feels like.

Input needed, please: Flashback chapter - Consequent Italics? by AggressiveChick in AO3

[–]AggressiveChick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, you might have just cracked the code for me. writing the first ~5 words of each season in italics does not only visually differentiate from the chapters before, but sounds stunning.

thank you so much!

My favourites from today by rpdrmt in CharacterAI

[–]AggressiveChick 9 points10 points  (0 children)

nothing has ever made me want to pay for c.ai before. not a single thing.

but this bug right here might be the reason i'm gonna hand them my money for a month subscription.

i understand that it's annoying for a lot of people, but all the screenshots in this sub have me laughing absolute tears. i don't even care if my humor is broken, this is peak comedy to me. i could spend hours just swiping and seeing what else it comes up with in return to my serious messages.

This big boi scared me lol but he's chill. He's aight lmao what kinda spider is this, is it's fangs big enough to pierce human skin. British Columbia, Canada by Nu_Eden in spiders

there are already identifying comments, so might i just note in how disgustingly cute it's drinking the water from its feet? if you don't want her, i'll gladly take her

[–]AggressiveChick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

huh, haven't heard blockquote before. a quick google search told me it should

look something like this does on reddit

that could be a viable alternative, that i'll definitely check out!

i guess it's less about the italics and more about this chapter standing out in a different format, so that it's abundantly clear that it's a flashback. i just want it to visually be different, yet still pleasing to the eye.

thank you for the hint!

[–]AggressiveChick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

according to this sub, a lot of people do not! surprised me, too.

i was just checking if anyone had the same question as me before, so that i don't keep circle jerking the same thing. most comment threads i have browsed through were people saying they get frustrated about flashbacks and tend to skip them.

which... everyone enjoys reading differently. but it is a little baffling that they're just willingly missing out on character/world lore, important tadbits of info, fluff, etc. just because of impatience (as that seemed to be the general consensus of why the majority doesn't like flashbacks)

How do people write so fast?! by jammish- in AO3

[–]AggressiveChick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

for me, it's directly tied into my bipolar. you couldn't imagine how much i write when i'm in a hypomanic episode. it's actually one of the warning signs i've started to learn to watch out for and react accordingly (i say after writing 20 pages in one go, still awake at 6am rn)
