you are so right about this it’s maybe the most boring ship ever created

Hongice

i cannot stress to you how much i do not care for hongice. i really do think most of the people who ship hongice ship them just to pairoff the "juniors" of each group, nordics and east asians respectively. sghk >>>>>>>>> hongice

#hetalia #i have never seen anything interesting about these two together #it numbs me #to the point of pain

re-reading my own fic because the author has exactly my taste in tropes, ships the same ships in the right way, and also shares my sense of humour. what a find, what a revelation. i hope they write more of this sort of thing.

this is ilkhanate slander 🤨🤨🤨

I thought of something:

Has anger issues, can fight: Mongolia

Has anger issues, can't fight: Chagatai Khanate

Doesn't have anger issues, can fight: Golden Horde

Doesn't have anger issues, can't fight: Ilkhanate

#hetalia world series #he can totally fight #once in a while

안녕히 계세요.

Once more, for nostalgia's sake.

#hetalia #screaming and crying #i never knew a picture could make me so sad #goodbye #and so long

My mind begs you to ask it something so it can obey.

this is absolutely a Westley quote

"doomed by the narrative"? idk sounds like a skill issue to me

#princess bride #nothing keeps him down #he would crawl his way out of the grave before he lets himself be doomed by the narrator

no one:

rugen, the albino, and also humperdinck watching westley get the life sucked out of him:

#princess bride #they were watching a little too closely 😭

Within a few months of finishing the movie, we all moved on with our lives, putting The Princess Bride in our respective rearview mirrors. There were other projects, other films, families to raise, careers to nurture. And then—though I can’t pinpoint the time when it actually occurred—a strange thing began to happen: The Princess Bride came back to life. Much of this can be attributed to timing—in particular to the newly developing video market. The Princess Bride came to be enormously popular in the VHS format. And it was via this relatively new medium that the film began to gain traction, and not simply as a rental. After careful scrutiny by those who do these things, it became clear that fans were not only recommending it to friends and family members, they also began purchasing a copy for their own home libraries. It became that rare kind of movie that was viewed and enjoyed, and ultimately beloved by entire families. Copies of it were being passed down from generation to generation in much the same manner that children were introduced to the magic of The Wizard of Oz by nostalgic parents who wanted to share one of their favorite movies. So, too, was The Princess Bride uniquely family entertainment. Parents with their children, and even their grandchildren, could watch the movie together, and each enjoy it for what it was. There was nothing condescending or embarrassing about it. Nothing offensive. It seemed to be as smart and funny on the tenth viewing as it was on the first.
