It Reallyyyyyy Breaks My Soul Whenever I See Shifters On Tt Interacting With People Clearly Making Fun

shifting as a canon character is always funny to me because usually people have to dig for face claims, wardrobes, and allllll sorts of stuff. meanwhile, i can just look up his stage play actor and that's my face claim. voice claim? literally do not need one since he has a canonical one.

usually shifting is all like "oh fun i get to script cute outfits and my s/o and hihihi" and then it's just

is this about my brain

that pistachio completely sealed in its shell is scared and alone, like a miner trapped by rubble. you need to free it by any means necessary. get the gun from your dad's cabinet

haven't done my work but i did draw myself not doing my work. and the specter. not sure how this helps

I feel like a lot of time shifters (especially on shiftok, don't come for me) are really closed minded. and how can you believe in shifting and still be so closed minded??

-like yes, you can script trauma in your dr and script that it doesn't affect you in your cr, it'll work just like you scripted

-you can script that your brother in one dr is your s/o in another one, you can script that you won't remember it/it won't affect you.

-you can age yourself up/down because once you shift you're gonna have the mentality of the age you've scripted (if you scripted that).

-you can race change because the morals of this reality don't apply to shifting, nothing does.

-you can script everything you want, even concepts that in this reality aren't real, you can't understand them, they're gonna be real in another one (I'll make another post about it to explain it better).

apart from that, don't listen to what anyone has to say about your dr, you don't need permission from anyone to script something you want. ora YOUR dr, YOU'RE the one who is shifting. this reality is not important, it's not special, it doesn't matter at all.

script WHATEVER you want and do WHATEVER you want.

Incoming, New Unhinged Fyodor Theory!!!

What if Ueda is that man??

He's been imprisoned for 1500 years at least. We know Fyodor's immortal.

What if this has all been a plan to set his boyfriend free? What if Fyodor was the one to imprison Ueda in the first place? What if Sigma is watching their entire toxic immortal 'not enemies, not lovers, but worse' courtship right now and we're missing it!?

tumblr is not social media. idk how to explain but its so calm here. like this is the field and the valleys. over there is the town and people. but here we are little sheep in our pastures eating our grass and laying in the sun <3

how to shift whenever (from an experienced shifter)

yes. you've heard this before. yes. it's recycled. i'm not giving you new information, i'm reminding you that you already know what to do and you're just not doing it. sorry lol. drink your cold brew and listen.

you shift by assuming. that's the law. no loophole. no secret ingredient. no five-step guide with a pastel graphic. just assumption. just decision.

if you've ever cried over a fictional character.....congrats. you've already shifted. you just didn't monetise it. do it on purpose next time.

it’s not "i'm so close" or "i almost did it" or "omg did i just feel something." no. it's not a quiz. it's not a scavenger hunt. it's not a 4chan riddle. it's your reality. assume it. you assume your name. you assume gravity works. you assume you have a face.

you want to shift????? ok. then do it. now. like, actually now. while reading this. literally while scrolling. yes, even if you're in the bathroom. you're already doing it, you’re just not owning it.

stop calling it a failed attempt every time you don't get the fireworks. stop naming your moments as if they’re battlefield tombstones. you’re making a museum of "almost." just go. stop narrating it.

you don't shift because you're waiting to feel shifted. you don't shift because you’re checking every three seconds like a deranged webMD dad. stop doing that. stop redownloading "hope.mp3" and acting shocked when it skips again.

you keep thinking it's hard. it's not hard. it's just annoying. annoying to keep choosing. annoying to be delusional when your brain is feral and cynical and deeply online. do it anyway.

you don't need more subliminals. you don't need to see a crow or a number or a cloud shaped like draco malfoy. you need to assume. persist. and shut up about it.

yes, it feels like lying. but most things feel like lying. flirting, job interviews, saying "i'm fine." we're already doing it. might as well get a reality out of it.

stop hoarding techniques like they're coupons for god. stop trying to feel ready. you don't get to feel ready. you just get to decide.

no one's gonna come down and tell you "you did it right." not your tumblr mutual. not the birds. not your inner child. sorry. you decide it's done and you live from that. yes, even if mittens the cat is still there. assume anyway.

it's already done. you're not waiting. you're remembering.

you're one decision away. you always have been. assume. persist. shift. log off.

genuinely feel so bad for people who tried shifting but eventually gave up and decided it wasn't real

like bro you could've had it all
