#also the death of both his parents

[kindgreenape]

i think kim is just as complex of a character as harry, but i think a good amount of players (not all, but a chunk) choose to unflinchingly characterize him as “the Good Cop” and leave it at that.

#kim was a child of the revolution. he has faced racial discrimination all his life #even in a position of authority he still encounters overt racism while on the clock #but he has also killed. it's implied that the majority of his kill count comes from his time working with juveniles #he defends a police force that is corrupt and does jackshit- a tool of the coalition #the same coalition that was likely responsible for the death of both his parents #he used to be a moralist and claims to be apolitical #and yet there are times where he takes what are decidedly un-moralist left-wing stances #there is just so much there.

Do you think Tubbo would recognize the path Bad is going down, because it's one he's already walked down on?

This self-destructive behavior coming from a broken heart?

He hasn't seen Bad at his best, before the eggs got kidnapped. He's seen him a victim to grief more than a father. It's why the blue staining Bad's being isn't out of the ordinary.

But suddenly he starts carrying flowers to remind him of the love he lost, suddenly the void calls out his name even louder and suddenly Tubbo sees himself in the older demon.

And it's scary, because suddenly he sees what he has become, how it affects others.

And for the first time of many, he sees Bad walk down a road he's paved. For the first time of many, Bad is the one repeating Tubbo's mistakes.

#the parallels between soul hunters make me SOOOOO ill you hav no idea #i needed to get this out of my brain I might've misscharactarized Bad on the way and If I have sorrayyy..... #their fascination or connection with death #their undying loyalty to those they let in their circle #the switch of their perspectives on resolving conflicts after both Purgatories #the self-sacrificial mindset when it comes to the eggs #the fact they're some of the most trusted people with the eggs #Bad is openly trusted by parents while Tubbo is silently trusted by the eggs while they're both simultaneously safe spaces for the kids #Tubbo has been there for a lot shorter than Bad which lead to him following a lot of previous islanders' including Bad's steps #but suddeny he's been trust into many tragedies and now he has his own path people may fall down in #JUST AGH #i feel like I'm going in circles #i don't know #i dont think they'd ever openly discuss their weaknesses infront of eachother #but I also don't think they'd ever outright shut off a conversation over grief they share #qsmp tubbo #qsmp badboyhalo #soul hunters #soulhunters

sirius' animagus being a hellhound to him. like he's named his father's dog (sirius being the dog of orion) and to sirius, his father is like the devil. making him his hellhound. he sees his animagus and thinks that. about how he's bound to the black name and condemned to follow his father like a dog, hurting others at his father's orders.

and then james sees and and his eyes widen as he whispers 'padfoot', the name of a ghostly black dog in english folklore. and sirius realises james saw him and thought he was an omen of death and feels even worse about his animagus form.

so they sneak into the library and peter finds a book on english folklore that describes 'padfoot' as a ghost dog that only attacks travellers who antagonise him, and that the dog has a chain tied around its neck that clanks as the dog walks but is cut, not tied to anything, like the dog has freed himself from an owner.

sirius rips the page out and immediately declares himself 'padfoot'.

#(but also after peter's betrayal. and sirius is in prison he realises how everyone in his life has died #james. lily. marlene. dorcas. both his parents. regulus. various order members #and he starts to believe himself to the omen of death again. everyone who enters his life ends up in ruins) #sirius black #marauders era #marauders #sirius black headcanon

If Bruce Wayne lived in the star wars universe he would be a Mandalorian

#i mean he's got the classic adoption problems #superman would obviously be like the perfect jedi (btw we dont hate on jeid here) #nightwing would most def be a mandalorian jedi #and talia would be deathwatch #also lets make her a descendant of tarre vizsla #that way Dami can be one as well #bruce was adopted by a random mandalorian named alfred who he had never met before when he was agremlin child after his parents death #tim is originally new mandalorian which is funny cause they're pacisifts and he well...isn't #bruce threatened to adopt kon if clark didnt #both tim and kon were very happy clark finally decided to accept his son cause bruce adopting kon wouldve made stuff all kinds of awkward #idk who all are jedi or just non jedi or sith affiliated force users #sorry i got distracted #i really want to read a dc star wars fusion fic now #but yeah batman would def be a mando

Why do you like Jason Todd so much? (I like him too! Just wondering your reasons)

My favorite fictional character of all time is Sophocles' Electra. Being a Jason Todd girlie is simply in my blood.

#there's just something about dying for/being haunted by the family curse (curse of the house of wayne/house of atreus) and then #embracing it to try to end the cycle. the words i could write about electra embracing the kinkilling/jason embracing the #urge that has haunted bruce his whole life both with the intent to put an end to things #bruce WANTS to kill which is why he won't let himself but jason's been on the other side (death) and knows it's not that simple #then there's the whole being raised by a parent whose love is conditional. and what inevitably comes from that. i relate <3 #perhaps not to the point of murder but who can say #anyways. also he's just fun and i love zombies #yes SOPHOCLES' electra i love aeschylus despite his hard on for athens but sophocles really gave my girl the spotlight she deserved

S5 E12 (911 first watch through)

I can't get the idea of a Ghost Whisper/911 crossover where Melinda Gordon is in Boston (idk, finding antiques) at the same time Maddie is there for therapy. A young ghost follows Melinda but isn't doing anything but watching over her. She asks him if he needs help, and he's even more confused because his sister has never seen him before! Eventually he gets that she's not his sister, and as nice as it sounds, Daniel doesn't want to crossover yet. He's got a job to do (looking after his siblings) but he does need some help finding Maddie. Maddie and Melinda ignore the fact that they look exactly alike but talk about their paramedic and firefighter boyfriends. Daniel doesn't want Maddie to worry more, so Melinda doesn't tell her he's there, but she does give Maddie her card in case she's in Grandview or needs some antiques.

#maddie buckley #daniel buckley #911 #911 fox #911 abc #fanfic ideas #ghost whisperer #melinda gordon #batcavescolony watches #batcavescolony watches 911 #batcavescolony was also obsessed with ghost whisper as a teen and is sad that apparently theirs not much fandom #ghost daniel watching over his siblings. screaming at his parents mistreatment of them. Daniel beats the shit out of Doug when he dies. #no peace even in death for for Doug its Daniels time to get his revenge for his big sister #jim and chimney meet up too completely unrelated to the girls. they just both jumped in during an emergency. #they talk about their beautiful gfs Jim gets to see jeeyuns baby pics. they also exchange numbers if either are in their respective states #it then kicks off a great relationship of Buck Maddie and Melinda meddling into things they really shouldn't but they're going to anyway

[kalakilo]

me trying to come up with literally ANY type of explanation to the aous ending that wouldnt mean what it most obviously means because i am so devastated

#ive seen some people say it kind of ruins the film for them #and in a sense i can see how the ending could go different ways as well #but. idk to me it just served like the final gut punch #also??? idk if this is mental but to me another possibility is that harry couldve done it the night adam went to show him his parents house #thats actually how i sort of interpreted it whilst i was in the cinema #but maybe thats also because i didnt want to accept the common interpretation. its too much #and whether it be that harry also re-experiences his death or adam chooses to embrace his ghost like both are devastating to me #because grief is not easy at all!!!!!! so like to say that adam starts grieving harry then is also just😭😭😭😭sad asfuck #but it could also very well be him sort of reassuring harry like he did his parents. how he tells them both that they went quick even though #his mom didnt. so adam reassuring harry with 'youre not in there' and asking him to go upstairs could be him letting go as well #but no fr there is no way to me that none of that was real. #god i am truly so devastated. i just fucking rewatched aftersun why do i do this to myself #lol anyway! #all of us strangers

No thoughts… only edizzy la cage aux folles au

#their relationship in the movie version is just like edizzy fr to me #the codependency… the volitility at times but beneath that just them knowing eachother better than anyone else and still being in love #and it fits so well in my head too because most aus are about them owning a club anyway lmao #plot twist stede is the straight dad and like in the movie version he lowkey crushes on ed (who would be albert / albin) except its #(well… more like ‘straight’ dad) #actually for real and ed revealing he’s not a woman is his gay awakening lmfao #only thing I’m stuck on is the way that the plot requires the other parents to be homophobic but obviously stede & mary wouldn’t be #me talking #our flag means death #edizzy #izzy hands #ed teach #izzy ofmd #blackhands #it would be interesting to have izzy in the role of albin/albert too but I think he fits george/armand way more #also the jewish last name thing from the movie would be cool to incorporate since that’s a semi common hc already #ALSO !! IT HAS THE SAME THEMES / JOURNEY WITH THE MAIN CHARACTERS IMO #like ik obviously shamelessly being yourself is just a thing in almost every piece of queer media but yeah. it fits their issues well too #it would be interesting to explore izzy pushing ed to fit a certain role in this context and both of their issues with not being vulnerable- #/themselves fully and not feeling worthy of love #lmao rip to their kid tho. hope he can gain some good coping skills from stede and mary’s kid… ah wait they aren’t great at coping either #also izzy owning a gay/drag club is so val of him so I love it for that

[sheilaerinniperonista]

it was a small passing comment in the story but when its mentioned Sheila saw her dog get beaten to death when she was a kid and it made her feel like humankind was just like that (+ her sister's murder afterwards cementing that worldview)... augh.

#fugo.txt #like. idk i feel like im repeating myself but i cant stress this shit enough man. she was just a little girl #she was like 10 #damn. #and like by that point she had already very much gone thru a lot of death. her parents were gone and the only family she had was her sister #and the only friend she had was her dog. #and then they both died. and she saw them die. right after the other. and then she was completely alone #idk looking at it thru that lense its not surprising at all that she decided to do all that. she was grieving and she didn't have anyone- #-to guide her in that. and the only logical progression she could fathom is that whoever killed her sister should suffer the same. #and deep down she knows she's doing this for herself because she doesn't KNOW what else to do. and she feels guilty. what would clara even- #think of her? and even if she's all oh illuso is dead and he suffered. so she can rest easy. you can SEE she never got any closure at all. #thats why she froze up when fighting against kocaqi. his sister also died right in front of him. but he did what she couldnt do #he gave her peace of mind. he gave her a dignified death. she died happy. clara didnt. and sheila can NEVER give that to her #all she can do is posthumously give her peace by murdering her murderer. but would Clara want that? #ugh man. its 2:30 am i should be sleeping i have a class to retake at 11:50 #but. man.. #please take the time to think of her tjis december

I know webtoon can't be a 100% faithful adaptation of the novel,but damn,we were robbed some really amazing lines and plotlines.

Chap 116,the scene where they're in poison palace,in novel its longer,and also-

Ma Taepyeong is actually admitting that he's a bad father and said his son must hate him. Like damn,he said that to Eul Dongfang. AND CHEONSO HEARD IT

Cheonso inner monologue(mind you,I read a very butched mtl ) is like " There's time where I'm angry,There's time where I tried raising orchid to understand his feelings,but it all just in past.

Much time has passed,and I don't want to whining about what happened in those days."

Damn Jeong Madu-nim,why don't you include this monologue??? This gave us a perspective of how both Cheonso and his father think of each other,and the fact that Cheonso actually choose to forget all his anger toward his father.

Damn,this is such a good part,why did you cut it????

#theres also earlier scene when Taepyeong summons little Cheonso after he burns marketplace to ground #(its the early in the truth arc when taegang jun still alive) #Taepyeong is thinking that he indeed resent his son bc his wife death for a while #but he also feel guilty that he turned away from his child and sending cheonso away to lesser light palace when cheonso cant even walk yet #reading these angst really broke my heart #these pair father and son might have a chance to make up earlier if Taegang jun and both of the heralds didnt intervene #instead they only start trying to make up when cheonso already 15 and grow up twisted #also ma taepyeong is still a massive cut who sucks at parenting #i reincarnated as crazed heir #reincarnated as an unruly heir

Good thing Levi and Gortash become immortals and live for a long ass time, bc with the way these two behave, I have a feeling it would take them at least a century to actually mature enough to have a normal in-depth conversation.

#dark urge: levi #durgetash #family matters #like fr the most emotionally-mature person in this fam is their son #who loves them both to death but gods if they aren't bloody idiots #noah hits his 20s and realizes his parents are two silly gooses with murderous intents and delusions of world domination #they're so cringe it's embarrassing but he loves them anyway #i also have an idea of levi and noah totally deciding to have a crusade against bhaal&bane #bane bc if Gortash dies (emphasis on if) bane gets his soul #bhaal bc noah is a half-blooded bhaalspawn and grandpa Bhaal is annoying as hell #Gortash finds about it when 2/3 of his family is involved in some crazy shenanigans in another plane and has to stop everything at BG #to venture after them and ground both of them indefinitely #you'd think mr tyrant would be the mature one. but then i remember he KICKS the Chosen of Bhaal in the chins at the morphic pool and am lik #“no he is not. he is literally 5 years old”

#the land of miracles #shenlan qiyu wushuang zhu #lan ge #fa hua #comic #white spider lily symbolizes hope amidst grief and loss; but it also symbolizes one's commitment and love to another #this comic is a companion piece to FH's comic that shows how they're soulmates from his pov #and this one is from LG's pov :D #also the first page is based on my fav scene in ep 32 hehe #both of them having their lives literally connected that LG wanted to live on for FH's sake after his parents' death;; sigh #spica draws

One of my toxic traits as a superhero fan is when adaptations make the villain connected to the hero’s origin I sometimes like it and sometimes don’t and either way I usually have no specific reasoning for my opinion other than Vibes.

#in most cases i actually do like it #the spider that bit peter parker being altered by oscorp a la ultimate comics? cool. #brainiac playing a role in krypton's destruction a la dcau and injustice? cool. #mandarin being directly or indirectly responsible for iron man's origin a la the 90s cartoon and mcu? cool. #magneto being responsible for professor x getting paralyzed a la first class? actually better than how it happened in the comics #doctor doom being involved in the fantastic four's origin? eeeh depends #i don't like the ultimate version or either of the movie versions where he also gets powers in the same incident #and also his skin is actually metal instead of wearing armor #that shit's lame #but i DO like the world's greatest heroes cartoon where he sabotages their mission by lowering their shields #and THAT'S what leads to them getting powers and also causes the explosion that scars him #way i see it if he HAS to be part of their origin the way that show did it was best #the only major example or the villain creating the hero where i NEVER like it is when joker is responsible for the wayne deaths #be it directly like in the tim burton movie or indirectly like that joker movie that didn't need to exist #like joker being responsible for batman's parents dying is just way too coincidental #some of those other examples are also kinda coincidental but they at least feel like natural connections to make #whereas joker creating batman is just forced #oh and sandman killing uncle ben in the raimi movies and black cat's dad killing him in spectacular for the same reason #the murders of the waynes and uncle ben both just work better when the killer is just some random crook whose identity isn't important #but yeah the rest of those examples are all perfectly fine with me lmao #shut up tristan

actually now that i think ab it johnny wouldn’t get pissy over vic’s driving. he strikes me as a joyride kinda guy. i’m like 100% sure he grew up around a bunch of car rednecks with these crazy ass hotrods in the 90s, then hotrod culture died down, then he got to NC and lo and behold it’s fuckin flourishing

#johnny silverhand #vanta rambles #source: both halves of my family have car rednecks #they regale me with tales of street racing and souping up these beautiful cars in the 80s #i think partly the 90s too #there was such a rich and vibrant road culture back then in FL and i’m kinda sad it’s all been sterilized #good to be safe on the road but ykwim #it’s like the death of malls to me…… #the proximity of the cyberpunk setting to the 80s is what makes this whole thing work #ok i’m gonna ramble more ab florida roads hi guys #there’s also more ppl here than ever (Stop it. Don’t move here! It tooootally sucks!) #so it’s just untenable to do some crazy shit on the road like u could 30 years ago #i can’t even pull out of my neighborhood without having to play fuckin frogger waiting for the right moment to go #even going out the BACK is rough #if it was as quiet here now as it was when my parents moved to this neighborhood we wouldn’t have a problem #now literally the car line for the elementary school reaches our neighborhood AND ppl park in our neighborhood to pick up their kids #WHICH IS EXPLICITLY NOT ALLOWED #anyway. point is god i wish the roads down here weren’t a fuckin nightmare #driving is fun and i like it even if it exhausts the hell outta me #wouldn’t be so exhausting if all the dang ol orange groves weren’t squashed to make way for subdivision no. 287

AU where Aki survives Part 1 and now not only has to deal with the existential horrors of his new state of being but is also incredibly allergic to dogs, so he lives in the apartment next door to Denji, Nayuta, and their dozen-or-so huskies. (He’s not as allergic to cats, but Meowy likes Denji more than him.)

#he walks Nayuta to school and shit. co-parenting bros (since apparently Kishibe just. brought Nayuta to Denji then ditched) #what’s up with that? #Denji reading parenting books versus Aki spiraling for the third time this week #they switch roles a bit because Denji is better at ignoring constant stress/guilt and adapting to large changes than Aki #Aki is used to being in control and the freedom/agency that being human allowed him. now? he’s lost that. #and he’s been turned - against his will- into a manifestation of the devil that killed his family/he hates most #so like. that sucks. #self-hatred to self-acceptance arc (for both of them in different ways) #Denji would be the type of dude to saw a cat door in the wall separating their apartments [positive] #also if public safety wasn’t aware of his death (again. creative liberties.) I have no idea what entry-level job he’d manage to put up with #I think. he would bully customers. #exclusively does organizational/stock room work #and I think that Denji does hero work while Aki handles crowd control (while avoiding any use of his new abilities whenever possible) #csm #csm aki #csm denji #chainsaw man #csm spoilers #chainsaw man spoilers #csm part 1 spoilers #chainsaw man part 1 spoilers #meposting #my csm thoughts #Aki lives #I think. they should both rest. everyone in chainsaw man needs a hug and a nap. #(except for himeno. she needs to be studied.)
