plot twist: EDI loaded a backup of herself into a toaster on the Normandy to ensure survival, but she had to deactivate it to ensure it wasn’t taken out in the blast, so one day, while they’re trying to get the Normandy off that random planet, Chakwas is trying to force Joker to eat something and he finally just gives up and grabs some bread and goes to make toast. He pulls down the lever and hears “Good morning, Jeff. On a scale of 1-10 how burnt would you like this toast?” and he breaks down crying in the galley, to which Toaster!EDI can only respond with “That was a joke.”
as a white™ to other whites™ in the omgcp fandom i feel like a lot of y’all are afraid to write poc because you dont want to get shit wrong but like fr. its not hard. just dont talk about being black or asian or latino if you dont know what its like. thats it. you can still write them, and have them be your main character, and allow them to be complex. you can be white and write a black character!!! all you have to do is not write about the black experience because you dont personally know about it. that means that you can still have them be black, like things that are typically associated with black culture (if thats what the character is like), and still have human emotions!! it can be done well, like if you take a gander at @geniusorinsanity who writes an amazing nursey!! and if you REALLY don’t feel comfortable making content like that, you can always reblog it!! support those creators, like @hoenursey and @omgcphee and @duanlarissa and @oluranurse and like a billion others!! follow accounts like @omgpocplease !! dont be afraid to show interest in those characters because even if you get called out, its a learning opportunity man. if someone calls you out then you just learn about what you did wrong like nobody is perfect but if you recognize your mistakes, own up to them, and strive to be better itll be okay!!! like the characters you want to, but dont be deterred from the ones you do because you dont want to make people angry!! its just a process of life my friends, we are all on a learning curve. (make content for non-white characters broski. it will enrich your life.)
My gf and I literally have literally 12 inches of height difference so:
Step 1 of Smol/Tol OTP:
Smol trying to be lowkey protective of Tol when cuddling by being the big spoon but it’s HARD BECAUSE YOU CAN’T EXACT JUST TUCK YOUR GIANT IN YOUR ARMS WHEN YOU’RE TINY
Tol getting pissy and putting all the important dishes on the top shelf
Smol not taking that hissy fit and hiding all the best snacks at the back of the lowest shelves
Clothes swapping but Tol can only take blankets (meanwhile Smol can wear all of Tol’s T-shirts like mini-dresses and look pretty rad)
Smol straight up sitting in Tol’s lap but it doesn’t hinder Tol’s eyesight at all so they do it all the time
Tol casually leaning their head on top of Smol’s head because they’re at that perfect height to do so and getting grumpy when the Smol wears heels because they have a harder time doing it
When they’re making out the Smol has to sit on the Tol because otherwise the Tol doesn’t know what to do with all their limbs
Tol forgetting that not all people see at their eye level and point out cool things that the Smol can’t see
Tol taking pictures of said cool things then bringing the phone down to the Smol so they can see it
Smol having to stand on stairs so they can kiss their Tol without neck strain
Hard time weaving fingers together when holding hands because the hand size is so different so they casually hold pinkies
Tol having a heart attack when they see Smol using their jackets and getting sleeve paws
Tol and Smol making out and Tol accidentally ENGULFS Smol
Tol using the Smol’s shower and having to bend down under the spray
Smol sleeping in Tol’s bed and realizing that they have a shit ton of space
Sleep clothing swap that works out pretty well because of bagginess
