Hello, everyone! I’m Yuzu. I write for a wide variety of fandoms as inspiration strikes, but generally speaking my current ‘brand’ could probably best be described as ‘time travel and also angst’. ;D
If you’re interested in reading my fanfiction, I’m MYuzuki on ao3 and you can find me here.
(I’m also on Twitter here as @MYuzuki4, although please be warned that I’m not very active there and only really have it for certain fandom events.)
If you’d like to buy me a coffee/support my writing endeavors, my Ko-Fi is here. I’d be extremely grateful for any donations, especially since I know that it’s a difficult time for everyone right now.
Also, feel free to hit up my ask box if you have anything you want to talk about or ask me. I’m a very friendly person for the most part. And I don’t always reply right away, but I do eventually answer. ;D

pioneering something called “gritted teeth optimism” where everything is gonna turn out okay even if i have to bite and claw and gnash my way through it
Everything’s gonna be fine and it’s not negotiable.
I need people to stop blaming the death of movies on “quips”. A quip is just a funny line of dialogue. That’s all. Like I just saw a post talking about quips and the death of movies and brought up Pirates of the Caribbean as an example of a better movie and yes it is but also that movie is FULL OF QUIPS. I just rewatched The Princess Bride. It’s all quips. Every single line. And it’s a masterpiece.
Movies suck when people don’t care about the art they’re making. That includes them not caring about their quips. Which is why a lot of comic relief dialogue ALSO sucks now. But the problem isn’t that funny dialogue exists.
The Princess Bride is almost all quips, but it’s all sincerity. Every aspect of the plot is ridiculous and yet no movie dialogue has ever gone as hard as “I want my father back, you son of a bitch”
people recognize the problem contained within Whedon-style quippyness without knowing the term for the actual issue so they say “quips” when they mean “bathos”
another problem with quips that’s a little harder to analyze and explain is the quips are all in the author’s voice, NOT the characters’.
steve rogers, natalia romanoff, james barnes, tony stark, pepper potts, and bruce banner are people from radically different walks of life, and should therefore have extremely different styles of communication, despite all off them nominally speaking the same language (english). they should have different senses of humor, different senses of where the boundary lies between irreverence and insult, different boundaries, different sore spots, different goals as well as different methods of communication.
the fact that all these characters banter the exact same way, i.e how joss whedon thinks is funny, is incredibly shallow and grating.
steve grew up as a challenging little shit, who was also very small and poor, and he did it in 1920′s-30′s brooklyn new york. he regularly got his ass kicked. tony stark is also challenging and provocative, he’s a shit stirrer, but he grew up rich as all fuck. no one was beating the piss out of him in a dirty alley. tony has grown up surrounded by sycophants, rich enough to get away with whatever amount of bad behavior he wants to pull; steve grew up poor and disabled in a society that openly advocated for the death and degradation of the weak and unfit. why the fuck would they enter a conversation the same way? why would they deliver a snappy retort the same way? natasha romanoff is a spy, she’s manipulative, she’s always watching to see how a joke lands, she’s always conscientiously tuning herself this way and that to get results. she doesn’t have the luxury of casual defiance, or unthinking obnoxiousness, or even standing by her principles and pissing off someone she hates. again, why would she be tossing off little asides the same as tony, or even the same as steve?
the princess bride is sincere, and the characters still banter in their own voices. fezzik is cautious and methodical, inigo is weary and incredulous, vizzini is desperate to impress everyone with his own intelligence and in so doing often sounds like a complete twerp, buttercup is so incredibly pissed off she doesn’t have any brain cells to spare for joking around, and westley is here to ruin everyone’s day. and it works! the characters have great banter because they’re striking sparks off each other, not meshing like identical cogs in a machine.
humor is about subverting expectations, about breaking up patterns, about confrontation and absurdity. you can’t get that from a blandly uniform pulp.
I have never heard anyone summarize Westley’s character so perfectly in a single line
British people will get so mad online about Americans microwaving their hot water for tea instead of using a Proper Tea Kettle and then go pronounce Pico de Gallo as “Picko de Gallow” and say that s'mores are “an Italian meringue sandwiched between two ganache-covered digestives” on live television
Remember when Paul Hollywood made challah with milk and said it was commonly eaten for Passover 💀
I’m sorry WHAT? Is it not extremely common to clean a microwave by microwaving water and lemon juice so it boils and the steam makes it easy to wipe down… I’ve literally never heard of water exploding in the microwave
I think the person who left those tags is under a genie’s curse or something because no one I have ever met has ever fucked up so badly that their water exploded in the microwave
OK so water CAN explode in a microwave if gas doesn’t escape while it’s heating so that it all escapes at once when it’s jostled in an “explosion” of steam.
However this pretty much only happens if the opening of the container it’s in is narrower than the rest of the container. This person most likely tried to microwave water in a glass bottle.
If you try to microwave water in anything with a wide opening (bowl, cup, glass measuring cup, etc.) you don’t have to worry about this. But if for whatever reason you are concerned about water exploding in the microwave, put a clean wooden chopstick into the water when it’s in the microwave. The rough surface gives gas bubbles plenty of places to form so there’s no buildup of pressure.
(Oh, and if you want to clean your microwave but you live somewhere that lemon juice is expensive, white vinegar mixed into water works too.)
