You know what’s utterly so peeving to see? People denying the fact Sasuke has romantic feelings for Sakura and try sustain that he ALSO doesn’t give two shits about Sarada and Sakura despite the fact it shows the audience he loves and cares for Sakura and Sarada. 

“As long as we love each other and our feelings are connected” ya’ll see that? What’s even funnier, antis try twist Sasuke’s words and yet again sustain that Sasuke doesn’t love his family, please tell me why ChoCho would find it so lucky that Sarada is the one who keeps Sasuke and Sakura together but it’s apparently “one sided”, please tell me why Sarada is crying if happiness because her parents are only together because of her, please tell me why Naruto is grinning because because Sasuke’s and Sakura’s love is “one sided”. See? it makes zero sense. And boi, don’t get me started on “kArIn iS SaRaDa’S mOmMy!!!” 

 And get this!! Kishimoto even tells us that their feelings are connecting (again) and tells us to read the spin offs in order to understand the relationship between Sasuke and Sakura.

“What reflected there was the real deal- love.” what else does that tells us about Sasuke’s feelings towards his family? hmmm?

“B-b-b-but Sasuke married Sakura as an atonement for his sins!!1″ Didn’t he say his sins have nothing got to do with her?

oh wait, he definitely married her as an atonement for his sins, yup! It’s not like he likes her or anything, teehee~

“B-b-b-but he married her so he can restore his clan!!!” 

Um..m’aam?..are we watching the same anime? 

He wanted to restore the clan’s honour, not the clan itself. 

“B-b-b-but Sasuke tried to kill her twice!!, he hate her!!” 

Sasuke tried to kill Naruto multiple times, I don’t see SNS getting shitted on and seen as a toxic relationship, and Sasuke tries to kill her as a self defence because she tried to kill him. Kakashi, Karin and even Sakura herself mentions how Sasuke was sunken deep into alot of darkness. Plus Sasuke vowed to kill Naruto too, and was itching to kill Kakashi his own sensei. Also this happens when Sasuke found the truth about Itachi and why he killed the whole Uchiha clan; Remember what Tobirama said?

 So just imagine how hurt and broken Sasuke could’ve been when he lost his own brother he whom cherished. Of course, he thinks it’s the Leaf’s fault and vows to murder the whole village, (bear in mind he still knows Sakura is a hidden leaf shinobi) obviously he is not gonna trust her once she tried to attempted to murder him. It’s Naruto, it’s not real life. Stop comparing real life situations people are actually suffering from with a fictional ship that’s got to do with ninja’s and clans it’s disgusting. Also did he not apologised to her? from the bottom of his heart? 

Exactly byotch.

“B-b-b-b-but Sasuke never kissed her!! he don’t love her!!”

You don’t have to show you love someone by kissing them, Japanese people take romance as a private matter. He gave her a poke on the forehead also known as the Ultimate expression of love (daganronpa lol) , Sakura even tells Sakura that the forehead poke is better than a kiss;  

“B-B-B-B-But Sasuke hates Sarada!!!11″ my ass, why would he even hate his own daughter anyways?? 

“B-B-But Sasuke never showed any affection towards Sakura!! and never cared about her!!” 

Sasuke, the first to notice Sakura’s behaviour was really off, (just like how Sakura was the one who first notice Sasuke being sunken into the darkness, they know eachother so well lmfaoo)

Sasuke first acknowledging Sakura in order to cheer her up since she was a little down. Even winks at her 

His reaction as Sakura tearfully asks him to withdraw uh huh. 

Swoops in to protect waifu uh huh

Then gets jealous because Kakashi saved her as if it was his job. Lol, look at him pouting, it’s so cute.

kyuut forehead poke~~

 Him appreciating Sakura for her love and affection, uh huh 

Recognizes her as someone dear to him and tells Naruto to protect her no matter what happens. He must protect his waifu (︶^︶)

stabs his own leg in order to protect her from getting hurt. 

he stays by her side to see if she’s ok, despite both of them having a time limit for the bell test. Yeahh he definitely, doesn’t care about her amrite??  :D

I seriously do not get what’s so hard to comprehend between Sasuke’s and Sakura’s relationship. Naruto isn’t slice of life or Shoujo. It’s Shonen it’s strictly tailored for young male readers, so of course their love isn’t going to take over the whole plot of Naruto/Boruto because it’s Shonen. Their love isn’t complicated, it’s simple. Sasuke loves Sakura and Sakura loves Sasuke. It’s been 6-7 years please get over it, alright I get it you hate the ship, that doesn’t mean you deny the fact Sasuke loves Sakura and Sarada. 

tdlr; Sasuke loves Sakura lol

Naruto: So... who's the big spoon and who's the little spoon? Sakura: We're chopsticks! Naruto: Well... that's cute! Kakashi: Does that mean you two snuggle together perfectly? Sasuke: No, it means that if you take the other away, the only thing the other is good for is stabbing.

Yuri Lowenthal (Sasuke's English VA) recorded a Sasuke ASMR love confession addressed to a sleeping Sakura and confessing the truth of all of his feelings regarding their history together ☺️

I’ve written, rewritten, and then deleted posts since the protests started. I kept feeling like I couldn’t ever find enough of the right words.

Black Lives Matter.

We need to change the systemic problems in our country that contribute to those lives not mattering.

We have to be better. For ourselves, for our neighbors, and for future generations.

It is our privilege to ignore problems. We must stop hiding behind that privilege. We must stop looking away. We must do the hard thing. We must speak up when we see injustice. And more importantly we must Listen to the voices that have not been heard.

We must vote. We must make the change we want to see happen because

Black Lives Matter.

I can’t physically participate in any of the protests due to other factors. But I have contributed funds and I will keep contributing funds until we see more change for the better.

We’re taking the first steps, but the road is going to be long and we will have to have those uncomfortable and difficult conversations to get moving down it.

This election is even more important than any other, get out and vote. Vote for your city representation, your county representation, your state representation, and then finally for the president.

To those of you out there protesting, keep up the fight. To those of you who are or have suffered in the past, keep up the fight.

I don’t know what else I can say, my motto has always been Be Kind. So I leave you with that reminder out there that even when you are having these hard conversations, you can still be kind.

Notice-

“In a racist society, it is not enough to be non-racist. We must be anti-racist.” ~ Angela Davis

To come out and state this plain and clear: The whole of the Menagerie Boutique stands with the Black Lives Matter movement and the protester in the whole of the country.  I will state that if there is someone that has a problem with the movement they should not find themselves counted among us.

If you need someone to talk to, please go ahead and message us here or​ you can always message on discord. We wish to support the black community and know that we are here for you in any way that we can be.

If you are able, donate to fundraisers that will help the movement that includes places such as the National Bail Fund Network

These are obviously not all of the links, connections that are out there to help but it’s a start.

We know COVID-19 has made money tight for a lot of people, please look on  youtube for videos that will donate their ad sense of their video such as this one.

If you are able to protest, do so, be careful for you and your fellow protesters. Remember it doesn’t matter the size of the protest of even if you’re in a small town viability and unity is what is needed. If you’re white, listen, let others speak, and use your privilege to protect those who need it!

Body Language Cheat Sheet for Writers

As described by Selnick’s article:

Author and doctor of clinical psychology Carolyn Kaufman has released a one-page body language cheat sheet of psychological “tells” (PDF link) fiction writers can use to dress their characters.

Because I realize all my characters do is look at each other and have their eyebrows shoot up. Sometimes they even lower their eyebrows too!

listen. l i s t e n. listen. kudos does not equal quality. popularity does not equal quality. i have read some “fandom classics” that i could barely fathom how boring or terrible i - personally - found them, and i have stumbled across some absolute gems that didn’t even break 100 kudos. 

what is good doesn’t always get the recognition it deserves. it’s sad, but true. just because you haven’t - or possibly never take - off in fandom doesn’t mean your work isn’t astounding and beautiful, it doesn’t mean you should stop writing; it just means that a very select corner of the internet missed the diamond in the rough. 

fanfiction is flooded with content, there are so many of us out there producing it these days, and having a fic that takes off is almost as much about luck as it is about talent. never let a few artificial numbers on the internet dictate to you what is and isn’t worthy writing. 

additionally, you don’t have to read or enjoy fics just bcs they’re big. i cannot count the amount of times i’ve read the first paragraph of something fandom adores and immediatly exited out of it.

just… do what makes you happy. write what you wanna write, read what you wanna read. understand that while we all want recognition - and some deserve it more than others - we did not get into fanfiction for that recognition.

recognition is good, but sometimes we get all tangled up chasing it and stop enjoying writing and reading and fandom as a whole along the way. be careful of that, please, or you’ll burn yourself out.

Twenty-five years in fandom and it doesn’t get truer than this. You absolutely CANNOT predict what will be popular and what won’t. It’s due to coincidence and timing and who happens to hit reblog and yanno…it’s a mystery. Write for yourself, read for yourself, this isn’t a job.

it would've been 100% funnier if Edward's approach to getting Bella to appreciate her humanity was less begging her to not be a vampire and more....forcing himself to hang out with her human friends so she has a normal teenage experience lmao

  • could you imagine Edward Cullen at like...a high school football game?
  • getting dragged to an amusement park on senior ditch day
  • at some party and he has to pretend to be drunk to fit in with all the others
  • Mike, Eric, Tyler and Ben all start insisting on calling him Eddie
  • he goes on shopping trips with the girls because he's the only one with a running car that also has trunk space for their bags
  • he starts using his mind reading powers for The Gossip(tm) and Jessica is absolutely obsessed...finally someone with decent intell
  • God at some party everyone's lowkey high and they start playing truth or dare and Edward's using his powers to choose the least embarrassing option but Bella catches on and Edward Trusts Her so she picks him and he's expecting something tame like...truth what's your favorite color, dare kiss me or something lol but Bella looks him in the eyes and with no mercy dares him to strip tease while rapping an Eminem song. Mike films it. Edward didn't talk to her at all the next day lmao
  • they all go see a horror movie together and to Bella's absolute delight 1) it turns out to be a vampire movie and 2) Edward falls for every single jump scare
  • The Guys(tm) invite Edward to some weird bro bonding sleep over and Edward's expecting to be bored out of his mind without Bella but 3 redbulls, 2 video games and one ouija board session later they're all crying about their deepest fears to each other. Edward's telling them he's scared that if Bella marries him it will doom her eternal soul to hell but he can't live without her and they're like 'Eddie dude that's so specific calm down' 'have you considered therapy man??' 'bro you guys are 17'
  • Edward and Bella get roped into helping out with the senior prank and it goes t e r r i b l y. First time in half a century one of the Cullens have gotten suspended from school lmao
  • he sneaks Angela's little brothers candy every time they hang out at her house
  • Jessica begs him to tell her what Rosalie's skincare routine is but the vampire's don't even really have to shower they can just wipe stuff off and be good to go and he knows Nothing about skincare so he panics and tells her something absolutely batshit that nearly ruins her skin and Bella and Esme make him treat Jess to a spa day as an apology and Rose searches up everything on human skincare and buys some stuff for her
  • GOD can you imagine how helpful it would of been during eclipse to have completely non-objective friends chime in on the love triangle bullshit...Edward can vent about it without mentioning the vampire's and werewolves and they can tell him he's being dumb because she's clearly head over heels for him and is just friends with Jake
  • He's like 'but what if she stops loving me,,,' and they're like 'dude she's literally wedding planning with your sister and mom right now please shut the fuck up'
  • one day they plan a beach trip to somewhere other than La Push and it's cloudy enough that Edward should be fine if he keeps a shirt on and from then on the group has a mission: See Edward Shirtless. they go to LENGTHS. switching into his gym class. spilling things on him. begging Bella to take pictures for them. Good Christian Edward(tm) is scandalized but Bella thinks it's hilarious and keeps telling them he had crazy tattoos
  • Edward trying to fake pop culture knowledge to fit in but it's not working so he actually has to start paying attention to shit from the current decade and now he won't stop ranting to Bella about Harry Potter and he's very invested in Britney Spears' mental health
  • Edward trying to decode text talk and everyone makes fun of him bc he texts like a grandpa
  • Edward after one joint is on a full rant about how America should have handled the Spanish Influenza- like he has a detailed list of complaints and ideas- and everyone is like 'Bella I know he's rich but he's such a nerd Are You Sure you love him' skdjjdmd
  • anyway. let the old man act like a teenager for once. as a treat.
