I finally have ✨️the list✨️
these are all the characters competing, first two rounds will be randomized, then I will make a bracket out of the remaining competitors
polls won't start until at least this Wednesday as I'm having a very busy weekend and I still need to compile all the images, so in the meantime, if you wanna submit some images to help me out, please do!! images without backgrounds are the end goal and would be the most helpful but finding the images is what takes the most time so if you have one please send them!! you can via asks or dms. if you send via asks I won't post them and anons are still on if that makes it easier. once I get some I'll cross out the ones I have so you guys know what to submit
thanks everyone, and I'm sorry you guys had to wait this long!!!

This isn't like a major complaint or anything but... It's hard not to feel a little bitter that Aladarius got a small canon acknowledgement but Gustholumule didn't (actually, shouldn't that be just gumatt or magus now?)
Like this mainly a me problem but I feel like MLM relationships get very little rep in animation and when we do, it's usually the Gay dad's trope. And that's fine, nothing wrong with showing it's ok to have two dad's, but it would be nice to show kids it's ok to like boys if you're a boy as well, you know? Like what was the last major MLM couple in animation? Benson & Troy from Kipo? There's Barney and Logs from Dead End which was good, but that's cancelled now.
So to give a precious moment of screen time to another two dad's (because Darius is definitely Hunter's adoptive father) just feels, a little unfair. I didn't need much, just Gus or Matt blushing or maybe holding hands would have been enough. Heck it doesn't even need to be those two, you have shown Edric with another guy, I would still take it.
WLW have gotten so much great rep in the last few years while MLM is begging for table scraps. And I have no issue with getting WLW, I love Catradora, Lumity, Korrasami, etc, and Lesbian, Bi, Pan Woman & girls deserve that rep too, it's just frustrating is all. I wish it didn't feel like we could only have one or the other.
Again, this isn't some black mark on TOH, it's still amazing and you can't get everything you want, but I just wish we could get at least one good show with a major MLM relationship (that isn't cancelled or shortened which is the norm nowadays) that isn't two dad's.

The Pride of June: Gay
Tumblr media
The Gay flag is the flag used for all Non Womenn who love Non Women. This mostly included only Cis/Trans men who loved only Cis/Trans men but recently had a definition change to include nonbinaries and others. and is the second letter in the LGBTQ+ acronym. The gay flag is often confused for the Rainbow/Pride flag, but that is incorrect. The correct gay flag is the purple and green one pictured above.
Fun History Fact: The first Gay Pride Parade took place on June 28th, 1970. This was a March of Queer people through the streets of New York to mark the one year anniversary since the Stonewall Riot, an event in which Police raided a Gay Club in NYC. This event marked a major turn in the gay rights movement. Police had entered the Inn and began arresting people, roughing them up. At one point an officer hit a lesbian on the head, and in protest people began throwing objects towards the police officers. The police locked themselves inside the Inn, after which protesters attempted to light on fire. The flames were doused, the the riots continued on for another 5 days. In 2016 Former President Barack Obama named Stonewall Inn a National Monument to gay Rights.
Tumblr User: @theosb0rnway
Media Character: Darius Deamonne (The Owl House), Adam (The Hollow), Benson (Kipo and the Age of the Wonderbeasts), and Charlie (Heartstopper) are all Gay characters in media.
Why the colors? The green in the flag shows community and the teal shows Joy. Combined the two colors in the flag represent Nature. The white stripe is to show support for trans, non-binary, and GNC men, and was taken from the Trans Pride Flag. The purple represents fortitude and the indigo shows diversity. Together these colors represent diversity in presentation, relationships, and life experience.
Where can I find the calendar? The calendar is my pinned post on my blog @hecateisalesbian! This will be occurring all throughout June, and tags such as #The Pride of June and #PoJ Project can be used to find my post

Mordeson Fanchild
Based on this post, especially on the latter as I kept thinking about it and decided to give more context to Mordecai and Benson’s precious child.
Warning: This post is a bit too long.
-
Introducing Nelson Tobin: Mordecai and Benson’s adopted child!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
                                              Toddler: Age 3 / Adult: Age 22
-
Rather than describing in the form I usually do, I chose to write about how Nelson became a part of their lives via fanfic style. In the end, I’ll exemplify some descriptions based on him in the usual headcanon format.
Enjoy!
~~~~~~
It was a chilly autumn day, detected by the wind which blew the many crunchy leaves throughout the lovely California streets.
A small bell echoed as the park manager and his tall slacker employer – covered in warm attire – left the well-known coffee shop, holding cardboard cups of delicious caffeine.
Mordecai joyously laughed, glancing at his phone and then back to his manager. A behavior that seemingly has been transpiring for a while, especially seen from the look on the gumball machine's face as he gazed numbly forward.
Most undoubtedly depleted and so done with him.
 “C-C’mon, Ben! He turned himself in-into a p-pick- Ahahah~!! A pickle!! And he called himself pickle Rick!!”. He wheezed between joyful tears. “It’s the funniest shit ever! Even Margaret agreed with me!”.
The poor manager discharged a sigh. “I can’t believe I’m going to marry you…". He dryly pinpointed before sipping from his cup. "What is honestly my life?”.
Mordecai shrugged with a precious grin. “I mean, ya still got time to back out of this". He smooched his cheeks, followed by nudging his feathers on his metallic body. "Though I doubt you could escape my most amazing charm~ After all, you did say yes~!".
«Silence»
“Fair”.
Chuckles were heard between the two.
«CRAAAAAAASH»
Piercing alarms were given attention to in the far-off distance, resulting in both park staff members gasping in fright, unconsciously releasing the contents off their hands and spilling them all over the pavement. Mordecai was the first to inquire about where those unbearable noises were coming from as he climbed the nearest poll to take a better look. Only to be more astonished by the sight of smoke.
“Oh, shit!! Bro!! Someone just crashed their car over at St. Darius Street!!”. He shouted in hysteria, pointing in the direction of said smoke to prove to his love that he wasn't joking.
  Benson’s eyes widened at that assertion, only to showcase a grim expression. "Jesus fucking Christ, I wouldn't be surprised this was the work of another drunk bastard!". Picking up his slacker's phone, he began dialing it. "C'mon!! Let's see how bad the damage is!".
Thus, the two sprinted off toward where the calamity arose.
When arriving, Benson was already too focused on speaking to the 911 operator, depicting the accident and where it occurred. Meanwhile, Mordecai felt fidgety. His focal point was locked onto the horrendous view demonstrated in front of him; two demolished cars in the middle of the road.
It seemed someone had collided with another car, judging by the heavy steam being released from the back of the one upside-down vehicle. The alarms of both automobiles were still screaming in roaring sounds to signify the severe damage that penetrated them. Shattered glass was also visible on the road, mainly originating from the windows. And worst yet, it seemed a fire was close to breaking out on the rear bumper of the victim's car.
Despite that, no passengers or drivers had vacated their respective vehicles yet.
It was so horrifying, but the blue jay couldn’t look away. Something within him just wasn’t allowing him.
Until he came to be frozen stiff because a nerve-racking racket was captured in his ears.
«Waaaaaaah!»
Mordecai’s pupils shrunk to pea size, feeling devastated at such a familiar sound.
Next to him, an oblivious Benson was nodding along to what the operator was rambling on to him. “O-Okay, just please hurry up! We’re not sure if there are any survivors, but we'll wait for the ambulance arriv- M-MORDECAI?!”. He anxiously yelled out, witnessing the jay dash off towards the crash site. “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?? GET BACK HERE, YOU IDIOT!!”.
The blue jay heard his future husband’s orders loud and clear, yet he ignored them as he squatted underneath the front hood of the car that was hit from behind. He squinted his eyes to take a closer look, only to be in a petrified state by what he witnessed inside.
“MORDECAI!! ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME!? GET OUT OF THERE!! YOU’RE GOING TO GET KILLED!!”. Barked a furious yet unnerve park manager, who was visibly seen shivering. “I SWEAR, IF YOU DO WHAT I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO DO, YOU ARE FUCKING FIRED AND DEAD TO ME!!”.
«Sir?? What is going on?? Did something happen?»
Soon after, numerous people were coming upon the area, as they also overheard the crash, then the ensued roars coming from the gumball machine. Everyone was stunned, as some made an effort to cry out to Mordecai to get away from the automobiles. And then there were the people who pulled out their phones and commenced filming the atrocity to post it on social media.
Nonetheless, Mordecai couldn’t stop now. He pushed his fears aside and dived into the car.
“MORDECAI!!”.
Benson was about to run after him but was surprised to feel his arms being hooked by pedestrians. They were pulling him in, knowing he would be roasted alive, just like what happened to the bird. The poor boss manager tried to escape their grasp as tears began leaking down his cheeks, yet he wasn’t strong enough. Until a boost of adrenaline came into contact in his bloodstream, giving him the strength to escape their grasp by elbowing his captors in the face.
Time moved gradually as a fierce Benson kept running towards the casualty site.
He was not going to lose the love of his life.
“IT’S GOING TO EXPLODE!!”.
Hearing a pedestrian holler that out loud, everyone ran away from the area, screaming in a panic state.
Except for Benson, who kept approaching.
However, witnessing someone escape the car caused him to lose his balance, not expecting such an out-of-nowhere scene. Ultimately, a feathered arm was wrapped around him as he felt his body being pushed, provoking him to fall backward, yet as he collapsed, he didn't suffer much damage.
«BOOOOOM»
Recoiling himself at such a loud explosion, he immediately held onto the person on top of him. 
When the explosion vanished, the manager opened his anguished eyes, only to then be surprised to see who had saved him, as he noticed him covered in bruises and a few burn marks. 
“M-Mordecai…”.
"Hey, Ben~ Miss me~?".
"Y-You-".
Without hesitation, Benson held him again, but this time it was more profound and much more lovingly. Sobs were exiting out of him, yet a gentle rub on his back and a kiss on his head were almost enough to soothe him.
“Y-You idiot… I-I thought I had lost you…”. He angrily muttered before pulling him close for a deep kiss, catching Mordecai off guard.
Yet, he didn’t complain.
When pulling away, Ben sighed. “D-Don’t ever do that again. You got that?! What were you even thinking, you moron??”.
Mordecai couldn’t help but chuckle at that. “S-Sorry, Ben, but I didn’t do it for the thrill!”. He slowly pointed down, revealing to be holding something in his arm. “I wasn't about to let this little one escape this world~!”.
Benson gasped at the revelation glimpsed in his very eyes; a two-year-old dark-skinned male human baby.
At first, he was amazed, but when he noticed the baby open his eyes and giggle with his arms wide open toward him, a soft smile spread to his cheeks. Slowly, he hovered his finger on top of him, only to feel overwhelmed that his tiny hand was grabbing it.
It was so adorable. Too precious.
Mordecai giggled at this tender moment, holding his love closer.
However, ambulances and police cars were heard rapidly approaching the scene before any of them could say something.
~~~~~~
Uff! Now, off we go to headcanons!
So, yes! I like the idea that Mordecai rescues Nelson in a terrible car crash where his biological parents and older sister are accidentally killed. While Mordecai is being treated, he and Nelson bond while Benson talks to the cops.
Mordecai extraordinarily does like the kid, and finding out he doesn’t have any other family members, he gets the idea that he and Benson should adopt him. Much to Benson’s dismay, worried this might be a bit too soon for them to have a child.
Until Benson looks down only to see little Nelson hug his leg while smiling and Mordecai showcasing puppy eyes. 
And thus, Benson and Mordecai have a new member in the family!
At first, the two have problems handling their lives and a baby, but eventually, they get used to it, and the three become one unstoppable happy family!
Later on, they expand it to four members (+Mochi) by adopting another human girl called Jodie Dunwoody (Or Jo).

I'll talk about her in another post, cuz this is looking so looooooong.

Now, more about Nelson!!
Now, I like the idea that Nelson grows up to have a little bit of both Benson’s and Mordecai’s personalities. He’s a perfectionist and a hard-working man, yet he always tends to get into trouble by fooling around, especially around his friends.
His biological parents were from Australia, where Nelson was born, but they moved to America shortly after.
The last name Tobin comes from his biological family, but Ben and Mordo never dared to change it.
At a young age, he called Benson mommy and Mordecai papa. Growing up, he began calling them dad and pops, respectively.
His relationship with his younger sister was bumpy initially, but then he started enjoying the idea of being an older brother. Protecting, playing, and generally having someone to help him commit pranks. And if someone dared to hurt his sister, he would never hesitate to charge at them to the point that it would lead him to trouble at school. Later, somehow the roles reversed because Jodie started being the most protective between the two.
Ben and Mordo gave him the nickname Noo-Noo, based on this guy 👇
Tumblr media
 Nelson loved to watch Teletubbies, and the vacuum was his fav character. And even as an adult, they tend to call him Noo-Noo for teasing reasons or because it's a common thing for them. Depending on his feelings, Nelson will be okay, get embarrassed, or get angry at that silly nickname.
For obvious reasons, Nelson became aware that he was adopted at a very young age. In truth, he doesn’t care that his parents aren’t human, or even that one is a gumball machine and the other a blue jay. However, other people always tend to annoy him with questions or insults. He simply brushes them off, paying no mind to them.
Later, he finds his group of male friends (6 guys: Simpson, Leo, Carl, Jaimy, Calvin, and Toby). One of whom he gains a massive crush over (which everyone knows, except Simpson, who is the guy he likes. Yes, he is that thick in the head). Unfortunately, Simpson simps over a girl (that does not like him back but values his friendship) whom Nelson doesn’t despise but is seriously jealous of. It even goes to the point that he blames this crush on his pops because he knows Mordecai used to be a simp too.
Ever since he started school, his bullies would call him the son of a gumball machine, and that term was carried out until his adult years. He also gets called that by people who personally know him, but Nelson despises that.
Oh, Nelson also has massive anger issues. And will kick anyone's asses, not caring that he might get hurt in the end.
He knows how to play guitar and the drums but is more talented in the latter.
Speaking of that, he and his friends have a band called the 'Blind Mice', which Benson doesn't like very much because he is anxious that Nelson will end up committing the same mistakes he did at his age (the whole being a musician and going on tour).
When it comes to the park staff, Benson despises leaving his son alone with Rigby and even Mordecai, fearing they might do something stupid or cause trouble that could harm Nelson. However, Nelson does like Rigby, even going as far as to call him his favorite uncle, which always results in Rigby crying.
Skips and Pops adore spending time with Nelson, while Muscle Man and Fives get awkward around him. Still, they like him but don't know how to behave in front of kids properly. Thomas plays with him for a short time, immediately handing him to his parents, Skips or Pops.
When he reached adulthood, Nelson started working in the park as a part-time job before managing a restaurant with Leo in a shopping mall.

And I think it's best we end it here! Sorry, if this post do be long xD

for that new meme: hooty vs the collector? luz or amity? darius + amity's dad?
((Thank you!))
hooty vs the collector?
HOOTY COULD’VE FOUGHT THE COLLECTOR IF HE HADN’T BEEN TRAPPED IN A BUBBLE. 
Honestly? If Hooty had introduced himself as the one and only ‘Owl House’, when the Collector wanted to play ‘Owl House’? I think they would have just become chaotic friends. (Of course, the Collector probably had the power to tear Hooty apart if he had a tantrum, but Hooty wouldn’t let it reach that point!) 
luz or amity?
How could I compare the girlfriends, when they make each other better characters by being together? If you’d asked me when watching Season 1, I’d say Luz, no question. Now, after all the fantastic development Amity has had, that’s a much harder choice. I still like Luz more, but just by a smidge. I still had a tiny bit of doubt about Amity after how she demeaned Willow (something which stuck with Willow for as long as Any Sport in a Storm), but those doubts evaporated as soon as I saw Labyrinth Runners! I would have been really sad if Amity had been separated from Luz and the others at the end of Season 2, so that says a lot. I really hope they can work out a way to stay together between the Human and the Demon Realms, whatever happens. 
darius + amity's dad?
These two! They’ve only had like 2 interactions onscreen— once in a school flashback and once when Darius calls Alador a hack and Alador responds on Penstagram. Part of me just wants them to remain as bitter exes because it’s hilarious and Darius would definitely hold a grudge. Another part of me wants them to get (back?) together because, lord, we need more M/M rep. The only good ones I can think of at the top of my head are Bow’s dads from She Ra (Who are adorable! But I stupidly can’t remember their names!) and Benson/Troy from Kipo, who are amazing. I know there are more but that’s all I’ve got right now.
And just… Can you imagine Amity’s joy when she finds out her dad is dating the Head Witch of the Abominations coven… only to find out that Dairus had adopted HUNTER? Meaning HUNTER might possibly become her step brother? I don’t know how Darius/Alador would become a thing within the timespan of Season 3, but I’d be onboard.

Melissa Benson on Violence and Imperial Rule in the Behistun Monument of Darius I of Persia
Melissa Benson Violence in the Behistun Monument:. Construction and Cohesion of Achaemenid Imperial Rule under Darius I (522-519 BCE). PhD thesis, UCL (the link immediately below gives access to the entire thesis):
"Abstract What are the challenges of studying violence in the ancient world? How should we define violence for historical studies? How do appeals to violent ability aid the establishment and maintenance of regimes of power?
I explore these questions in my thesis through an analysis of the Behistun Monument, Darius I’s memorial to his victories between 522-519 BCE. I investigate the king’s use of psychological and figurative violence in the foundation of the Achaemenid regime of power, after violently suppressing the rebellions against him. In the first part of the thesis I outline the methodological principles of the study and examine the source basis. In Chapter One, I examine how definitions of violence arising from the social scientific debate can be applied to different ancient source material and studies. My methodological approach is based on a ‘wide’ concept of violence, which accounts for its non-physical aspects. In Chapter Two, I contextualise the Behistun Monument within the extant corpus of Teispid (550-522 BCE) and Achaemenid (522-331 BCE) artefacts. In the second part of the thesis, I conduct a case study of violence in the Behistun Monument. In Chapter Three I consider the monument’s figurative aspects: the relief image and inscriptions on the mountainside. In Chapters Four, Five and Six, I consider the inscriptional content. This analysis relates primarily to the ‘violent rhetoric’: descriptions of the battles fought and punishments inflicted in the course of the crisis and what these reveal about Achaemenid imperial ideology. In the conclusion, I outline the benefits of using a ‘wide’ definition to examine historical violence revealed by the case study and propose further directions for study."
A very interesting thesis, which, although it tries first of all to understand Achaemenid imperial violence from a Persian perspective, does not reject a priori the use of Classical authors providing information on this subject, with Herodotus of course the first among them.

My thoughts as I’m watching 24 seasons of law & order svu:
Season 17
17x01, I guess Rollins is pregnant then. Poor Melinda for having to check all of that dudes work. Congrats Rollins, though I don’t think she’s that happy about it. I kind of hate that the perp got caught due to such a stupid thing, and that they didn't charge him for the death of the Swiss girl.
17x03, well this episode is just sad so far. Nobody wants Darius to be trialed as an adult, except for the DA. Also, still weird to see House’s Wilson on SVU. I hate the judge's decision. Like, I get why she wanted to make a point, but make that on a case where it’s not a kid and not someone who is obviously sorry.
17x04, Benson and Dodds? Whoopi!! (The person, not my reaction to the ship) Rollins got really pregnant really fast.
17x05, did not think of Murphy as the father of Rollins' Baby (mostly because I didn't think of it at all). I still like him! Benson vs Barba is kinda fun to watch. Is there a continuation of this episode? Because that was very open-ended!
17x07, I admit to having thought it was the brother. The wedding ceremony was just creepy.
17x08, shallow, but I really like how Olivia has her hair this episode.
17x09, I liked that it’s a continuation from 14x05.
17x10, I feel like I missed an episode.
17x11, how did Benson not see that coming?!? I mean, it was easy to tell someone was telling the woman what to do. So did Tucker and Benson get together before this? Because why else would Tucker be the one who cares the most about her? The EMT’s (and Dodds jr) in underwear was a bit funny. What can I say, I’m still not a fan of Tucker…
17x12, if those kids had been able to talk to each other instead of the parents taking over, the episode could have ended after 5min.
17x13, this is why I like Carisi!
17x17, Tucker’s Cousin reaction to him showing up in church did make me laugh. Are we really way past all Tucker has done? I mean, I know he’s innocent here, but I’m not really over his behavior from the first 12 seasons. And finally a confirmation of Benson and Tucker. At least Barba had a good reaction to it.
I’ve said it before, but why do they never really show the build up to a relationship that Olivia is in?!?
17x18, I still like Carisi the most from the “new” characters.
17x20, Munch is back!!
17x21, I enjoy Rollins and Carisi watching trash TV together.
17x22, kids this episode are getting bribed with mud pies and x-box.
17x23, I should probably feel worse about Dodds jr., but I never really connected with the character, so I’m kinda meh about his death… I get why Carisi is a casket bearer, but why is Tucker? I do appreciate Dr. Lindstrom showing up every now and again. Surprised it took that long for a Tucker/Benson kiss to happen.
Favorite Episode: 17x07 and 17x13
