thank you everyone for your patience. i've been so swamped with RL crud

you got this, or else

thank u babe, you always know what to say

I believe in you

HE'S SO CUTE IN THAT GIF WTF

Tom Herpich draws the cutest Finn's, it's true

from the ep that contains the saga of finn the extremely old woman who saves him but can only speak swedish

food orderd, tags commencing!

gonna hit back my fellow boomers then try to tackle these oldies

derkins: you're on my boomerang list but i'm not seeing anything we have, did i lose a tag?

The Big Fear LMAO

no its me

unless u wanna start smth new ive got their network hang out there tabbed up! gonna get to it as soon as bb goes to sleep

omg no, i'm absolutely here for whatever! But network hangouts sounds perfect, nice and easy.

I will hit you back as soon as I get the tag!

TURNS OUT IVE GOT TWO TAGS FROM YOU dont look at these timestamps

LMAOO

i pretend i cannot see it

Itachi - i have too much fun with brain texting

itachi blowing up his phone/head before the sun comes up like a menace

Natasha - rambles for ten years LMAO

Natasha - noooo i hate it they're so sweet

Wei Wuxian - stick a fork in me, i'm done

what the fuck

all of these are compromising me right out the GATE

i know. this is still killing me

Itachi - itachi is killing this boy

Iris - time for finn to be the torturer

iris:

get up there man, you got this

me like, is it time for finn to find out about iris' powers when he literally draws himself a bridge

he will quite literally freak out

Iris - cringes at my own character

and listen, finn didn't tell him HOW he had to get over. not technically breaking the rules...

my thoughts exactly

Itachi - i'm way more curious about this than finn is

finn's ready to just do whatever and i'm over here so curious

Natasha - his wine aunt, calmin' him down

literally everything in here is FEEDING ME

Itachi - ow hurt myself w/this one

the vibes of this thread are so Right...

Natasha - stop it

Natasha - Finn and I having the same realization at the same time

Finn has definitely been seventeen for probably like, six or seven months

which means he'll be technically 18 in like six months.....

weird. WEIRD.

wtf this marta tag derkins she's so good...

Jake - We could leave this here, safelybeds or you could do one last tag if you want, Em

hohoho i think i'll put a bow on it yes

good thread. good establishing

We will definitely be feasting on that content later

sow in spring, reap in fall......

LMAO he just wanted to see!! if he could!!

it's cool....

starfaring: the beauty of this tag in my inbox just knocked me on my ass

wtf

An interlude to discuss how this comic cover is so cute/beautufully executed and gives me big vibes for this mission

that does fit very well for this mission

Itachi - arm feelings overtook me for this one

omggg it's perfect

Maybe Itachi intended him to learn something from this. Or, maybe, he just wanted to push him off once they got to the top. The latter thought makes Finn laugh a little, the noise carrying up to Itachi without any explanation.

i laughed out loud gajskl

the mental image of it

what a weird kid

Things finn does a lot of: talking to himself out loud

LMAOOO

it's probably fine

finn has no idea how hard this man is working to maintain his ‘I’m bad actually’ rep

Itachi - he's really unlocked the secret to shutting finn up

no wonder jake's such an amazing cook

this thread is so wholesome 😭

I know, it's genuinely so sweet??

finn to itachi rn

LOL

it's fine we're all good nothing to see here

Natasha - local puppy sniffing out his aunt

FFFFFFFFF

that really is what happened isn't it.....

weeping

it's how itachi works...

Finn and Jake in xim, caring about all these broken people

Sani_Caranza: IT REALLY IS

when you're writing a tag you know is gonna detonate on impact

Itachi - ouchie

Wei Wuxian - Sani_Caranza i think this one's done... rips out my heart and hands it to you

I have anger in my heart starfaring

I have so many feelings

and yeah that feels done to me!!

me @ everything

cannot believe they've adopted him together, really pro move guys

only like 3 and 5 years younger, but that's still legal probably

poetry

LMFAO honestly

AND ALSO ONE OF THE MEN HATES DOGS

SDHKLGDHD

Oh my god

LOOOL

Jake - this one really went off the rails and i hurt myself

we went from Finn struggling to decide exactly how many balloons is cool and not lame to Finn thinking about every person he tried to build a relationship with that rejected him in like 3 tags

Also reminded myself with this tag that everything with Finn’s father, which Finn really likes to act like he’s over, happened like, in the past year....

did itachi wake finn up just to put him back to sleep im crying

LMFAO

it might not be what he SET OUT to do but it is what he accomplished

You can’t wake Finn up before 5AM and then make him comfortable and not have him fall asleep again

too teenager. Needs his REST. Also WHY ARE YOU GUYS RUINING MY LIFE WITH THESE THREADS

My heart is gonna burst....

Sani_Caranza: the extreme humor in the fact that culturally, Finn is also a dog. You played yourself wwx. You played yourself.

Nonvieta: also what the fuck

why would you do this

bringing up Finn’s incredibly bummer Fern confession without warning like this

LMAOOOO

I'm not sorry.

I have a lot of feelings about Finn's fear of being discarded for the crime of being too himself and/or not enough for people

At the end of the day, how much of his anxiousness about being useful at all times an extension of making sure nobody leaves him

Okay, so work is pretty slow and yesterday was REALLY helpful getting me back into a writing groove (thank you everyone ). I'm going to try tackling this beast in chunks.

31 tags!

three from psls that don't count, so more like 28

so just 7 blocks of 4

feels more manageable like that LOL

okay, i wound up doing very little because work was busy, but i DID do some good plotting which feels good

very excited to get back to the station and have finn be extremely embarrassing about his crushes

just a boy who loves dangerous people, nbd

drinking some coffee, taking a little nap, then back at it. oldest to newest

Sabriel - a week old... RIP... sarahthesilent do you want to boomerang this one a little sometime? I think the goal here was to have her offer to enchant Finn's sword, would she bring that up or would you want Finn to ask?

Joric - just vibing with his favorite big man

Nonvieta: Finn can ask, and I think I know how to bring the subject around

nice nice nice

Jyn - this poor woman. i'm sorry about him.

Felix - BIG QUESTIONS

I llove that we went there

I also feel that was a mistake

LOL

Mostly just how it was said!

Felix like a cat who's hackles were instantly raised at being questioned on how good he is.

LMAOOO

finn really thought he was saying the right thing here, dang!

he's bad at knowing the right thing

Alina - reacting WAY TOO BIG to alina's magic, nbd nbd

i'm glad i found the perfect use for my blinded by the light icons LMAO

Finn - every tag in this thread makes me laugh

who knew all Finn needed to immediately overshare and ask insanely personal questions right off the bat was sharing a name

(he usually saves his insanely personal questions for the second thread)

Degar - that's a wrap on this thread. good stuff, man.

/laughing, it's ok. talking to Felix is like walking a minefield.

also, had he been taken from, like, thirty minutes earlier he would have been... well, no, he still would have laughed at the idea of Locus being better than him but. he would have been mean about his partner rather than yelling at finn about it

LMAO what are ya gonna do

Rita - Finn's impassioned rambling peptalk that may be half for himself LMAO

Ciri - gorl what is your life

Yujin - moody teenager alert, sorry smithsyndicate

he has no idea what he's jealous of LMAO

'yujin mikotoba, obviously the perfect father, kazuma and susato are so lucky '

Luthien - owwww this is gonna kill me. Helen and Rand...

Rita - Finn’s extreme excitement and enthusiasm for Rita being A Movie Star is cute

He just thinks it’s neat

wehhh he's adorable

he now DESPERATELY wants to see all her movies

good thing she has the full collection

FINN!!!!

finn he also sucks sorry kid

hepburns: THANK GOD TBH

smithsyndicate: dkflgfj the bar is so low, man

yujin can be higher than a bar that's in hell

making moves

Jake - the boys are done fighting LMAO

Minimus - giving this kid an existential crisis

finn, unprompted: you know one time i DATED a FIRE ELEMENTAL

me crylaughing into my hands

LMAOOO

he can shove his foot in his mouth, as a treat

embarrassing teenage boy syndrome

he has one of the worst cases i've ever seen, doctor

i'm afraid there is no cure

it's okay, he had a good run

Strange - probably can wrap this up, a nice little introduction!

Finn’s definitely going to be begging this guy to see what other stuff he can do

Yzak - a good serious talk and now the cooking continues! Probably we can wrap this one up soon, gaignun I feel like we’re nearing a nice natural stopping point!

Jake & Felix - And i think that’s a wrap!! safelybeds AisuYoukai

The world’s most awkward introduction of two of your friends

extremely awkward

Alina - best solution offered yet

DJKSHKSDG

yeyeye!!!

I been gone on the west coast so I didn't get to start anything new but.

I need More

shh finn don't worry about all she doesn't say, she's delivering the relevant details! probably

does not believe you....

that's the wise way to be, so now be the fun way, let's go run gauntlets

Ziggy - i regret to inform you that they're cute, your honor

simpledog gross!!

how are they so cute

Ziggy - i don't know, but they are

MY SWEETIES
