thinking about solar and how absolutely fucking pathetic of a man he was
constantly nervous and trying to not offend ppl while also just trying to have ppl like him
while i COULD talk about solar/lunar bc thats a very obvious ship (like. theyre right there lmao) but i came here to talk about solar/sun bc i was looking through some of my old oneshots i made when solar first showed up (like- literally on ao3 there were FIVE fics about him. I WAS EARLY) bc i wanted to kiss his flat fucking face so badly
BUUTTTT one of the oneshots was of solar and wutever fuckin insert i used interacting and like. trying to get solar used to gentle touches since im a FIRM believer that that man had NEVER felt a gentle hand on him once he existed (except for maybe when he interacted with his sun in the headspace but thats not actually physical) and it was like "okay lets see how u react to certain things and get u used to it"
and i was like... wut if it was sun doing it with him? i feel like in the beginning he would try and avoid sun as much as he could while also DEEPLY yearning to be around him. bc he just misses his brother so much and he wants him back but he knows this isnt his sun but it hurts to see him and not be able to even touch him. not bc hes not allowed to, hes just too scared to make any moves to get closer.
IM GETTING A BIT OFF TRACK BUTBUTBUT- ill discuss sun and solars early relationship LATER in another post so imma talk about wut im REALLY here for
sun is just hanging out with solar and tries to help him figure out his feelings cuz hes like "i have no fucking clue wut im feeling or wut to do with myself" and sun is like"fuck it i can help" (pretend this is in character LMAO im just being silly and over simplifying :]) and they like- "practice" with solar being used to more gentle touches. like just holding hands and hugs and petting and all that stuff. bc even tho solar trusts sun he still has a deep burning feeling that he will be hurt at some point and sun makes it his personal goal to at least help him not feel like that as much
and ofc they end up kissing. y do u think im here??
solar is an EMOTIONAL MESS. bro does not know wut to do with himself but it doesnt matter bc he feels happy and safe and DAMNIT is he gonna enjoy it

I’ve been doing ballet for almost 15 years and tomorrow is my last performance before I’m officially quitting. I can’t keep dancing anymore because I have chronic pain but I don’t know how to live my life without ballet. I don’t know how to cope with this. Aaaaaaaaaaaah

Chapter one is finished! I’m not providing a synopsis because the chapter is pretty telling of what the story will be like, along with the tags.
I hope you enjoy the ride, as I had a lot of fun writing it! Keep in mind this is my first fanfic I’ve ever published publicly, so please be patient. These are new grounds for me :)
Chapter One
Grian runs.
He’s been running for a long time, but never has he sprinted so hard and so fast, his muscles burning, his legs aching with every stride he took. His lungs scream for air as he gasps, the cold air searing his throat as he pumps his arms even harder. The constant pain in his wings aren’t helping him concentrate on running, either. They’re badly bruised, rendering him unable to fly. And never before has Grian been so desperate to take to the air. Behind him, he hears nothing but the swaying branches and the leaves crunching under his feet. It’s eerily silent, shrouded with a deceiving quiet that only strikes more fear into Grian’s heart.
How have they found him so quickly?
They’d only been on the server for a couple of months. Everyone was still deep into their projects, Scar expanding his ever growing Swaggon business, Impulse adding details to his factory, Mumbo doing whatever Mumbo did, Pearl creating gorgeous builds… It wasn’t time to end this season. Not even close. They should have had more than a few more months before they caught up with him.
Grian’s body is burning now, more exhausted than he’s ever felt. He’s pushing himself far beyond his limits, and he still isn’t sure it’ll be enough. He just has to make it to Boatem… There, he can warn his friends, and they can flee the server as they always did when they inevitably caught up with him. Grian thought he had mastered this endless chase through worlds, thought he could stay one step ahead of them. But despite his efforts, he’s failed.
The ground is getting smoother and more worn down beneath his feet as he springs on. A good sign, it means he’s growing ever closer to civilization. He’s so tired, his legs numb and feet barely functioning. Almost there, just a little longer…
WHAM!
Grian smashes to the ground, barely managing to catch himself before smacking his face into the dirt. His foot’s caught on something, his exhaustion finally taking him down. Stumbling to his feet, he continues on, but now he can sense something behind him. They’re even closer now.
Finally, finally, Grian spots the familiar sight of the Boatem hole, a strange stack of boats and various items sitting precariously over a deep hole that lead to the void. By some miracle, all of his friends are sitting around it, engaged in conversation. He can save them, if only he can convince them in the minutes he had left before they caught up.
He can convince them.
He has to.
“…and then Grian unfroze midair and asked me what I was doing. It scared the heck out of me!” Scar is laughing, obviously telling some story to the group. Whatever it was cracks them up, and they’re all clutching their stomachs, laughing as Scar buries his head in his hands in fake embarrassment. Grian skids to a halt in front of them, hands on his thighs, gasping for air.
Scar turns to him, a smile spreading across his face as he greets the newcomer. “Well, speak of the devil! Grian, I was just telling them about-”
“(Gasp!) Scar, stop! They’re here, th—(Gasp!)—they’re coming! We need to leave!” Grian cuts him off, fumbling his words as he desperately tries to get them to understand what had happened. Scar’s face drops from his usual lopsided grin to a worried frown, and he reaches out to grab Grian’s shoulder in support. The others look on inquisitively. “Woah, Grian, buddy, calm down a sec. Take a moment to breathe, you’re exhausted-” Scar moves to let him take a seat next to him, but Grian waves him off.
“T-there’s no time, don’t you see?! (Gasp!) They- (Gasp! )they’ve caught up with us! W-we need to go, change servers, or it’s- it’s all over!”
The world is spinning and blurring around him, and hazy shapes seem to surround him as muffled voices call his name. <<Grian! Grian, are you ok?>>
<<Oh god, what happened to his wings?>>
They’re concerned, but not for the right reasons. They need to go, to run, not check on him!
<<What happened? What’s wrong?>>
<<How can we help?>>
No, it’s going all wrong. They don’t know the danger, don’t know what to do. Grian hasn’t told them, couldn’t tell anyone without putting them in danger. But he guesses it doesn’t matter anymore. There was no avoiding it, because despite his efforts, his friend’s are still in mortal peril.
Grian feels himself sink to his knees as the world tilts alarmingly. He feels nauseous, but he fights it. He needs to get the words out, or else it’s all over.
He manages one word before he feels them arrive.
“RUN!”
The world turns cold.
The wind stops blowing. His friends grow quiet and still.
Grian opens his eyes.
Everything has stopped. The grass no longer sways in the wind, the clouds are still above their heads. And, the most horrifying of all, his friends are frozen. Scar has his arm on Grian’s shoulders, his face covered in anxiety and concern. Impulse and Mumbo are crowded around him, tense and unsure of what to do. But worst of all is Pearl. She stands slightly farther back, but unlike the others, her eyes aren’t trained on Grian. She’s looking over his shoulder, fixated on something behind him. And she looks terrified.
Slowly, ever so slowly, Grian pushes himself up off the ground (gently brushing Scar’s arm off his shoulder in the process), and turns.
And the monster stares back.
Just like that, the world is gone. He’s floating in a vast purple void, alone with the one he’s been running from for years.
It’s a humanoid figure, cloaked in grey cloth and deathly silent. When it raises its head, Grian can’t see anything. It’s too shrouded in shadow to make out.
No. No, no no no no. This can’t be happening. It can’t end like this. Grian won’t let it. If he can’t save himself, he’ll at least save his friends.
He clenches his fists against his sides, his fear turning to hot, boiling rage, bubbling against his throat as the figure looks on, silent. Now that the worst has actually happened, Grian finds himself filled with unexpected bravery. After all, what does he have to lose?
“Leave them alone!” Grian spits at the thing, the years of barely contained fury finally boiling over. He arches his wings over his head in an effort to look more intimidating, ignoring the pain that seares through his bones. “It’s me you want, not them! I’ll go with you, do whatever you want, just leave. Them. Be!”
Grian knows that they work in strange ways. They can’t forcefully take him. He must agree of his own will first. But that doesn’t stop them from making his life hell. They have enormous power, and don’t care who they kill along the way.
Grian waits for an answer.
The silence seems to stretch forever.
But then the thing laughes. It’s a cold, calculating chuckle that chills Grian to the bone.
“Oh, little one. What a silly request you make.”
He holds his stance, watching the figure in front of him. It still doesn’t move.
“What we want is far from just you. You may be the key, but there are many more doors to open.”
Fingers turn to claws as he digs them into his palms, anger reverting back to horror. He chooses his next words carefully, attempting to hide the quiver in his voice.
“What will you do?”
It watches him. It’s been watching him for as long as Grian knows.
“That entirely depends on you, my friend.”
The word “friend” has a hint of malice etched into it, a stinging threat that hangs above them. They are not friends. Never have been.
“We are more merciful than you know. And so, we offer you a deal.”
A deal. That doesn’t sound good. A deal with them never goes well. Grian knows that more than anyone.
“We won’t follow you or your friends anymore. We’ll leave you be forever. No more running, no more hiding. No more living in constant fear.”
His breath catches in his throat. This was too good to be true. Too wonderful of a thought to possibly be real.
He waits for the other shoe to drop.
“But to receive this, you must pass out tests.”
Oh no.
“We have many trials for you to overcome. If you face them all, and win, you may receive our blessing. And if not… we take you and your companions.”
There it is. No gift ever comes for free, not when they’ve been hunting him for years. Not when he’s escaped every trap, every plan they’ve made to capture him.
This is all another ploy. Another mind game to try and get him on their side. Grian isn’t dumb, and he won’t let himself fall for it.
…But oh, it is tempting. Behind his outer confidence, Grian can feel the exhaustion lurking behind his eyes. He can feel the years of stress and fear in ever muscle, every bone. To be relieved of this burden would mean everything.
But suspicion is clouding his thoughts. Something is very wrong.
If he agrees to this, and fails, he can’t backout. A deal is an agreement and is just as binding, magic wise.
But he’s so tired. So tired of putting everyone he loves in constant danger, so tired of keeping them in the dark.
And so, he makes a decision.
“I accept on one condition. I will take your tests, and pass without fail. But in the event I do, you only take me. You leave everyone else alone. This is my one offer, so you better take it or leave it!”
Grian spits out those last words, malice coating his tongue. The formal tone he’s been using drops away, replaced with cold rage. He hates them, hates their games and their tricks. And he is done with it all.
The figure lifts its hands, which hide beneath the folds of it’s cloak. And for a moment, Grian swears he can see a toothy smile beneath the mask, dripping with purple blood.
“We accept your offer”
The purple world begins to fade into white. Everything is fuzzy and hazy, just like before. Grian fights it, fixing his eyes on the blurry grey shape in front of him. He shouts at it, panic and anger mixing together. “Wait! What do I need to do? How do I complete your task?”
For a moment, a strange symbol flashes between them. A glowing square, but with the edges strangely cut off, leaving dashed corners.
“When you wake, you will see.”
The voice is growing fainter, the world lighter, and Grian feels himself slowly slip away.
“But Grian… you forgot one thing.”
The voice is barely a whisper, nearly vanished into the pressing white. Grian has to strain to listen.
“You never said we can’t use your friends against you.”
Chilling horror spreads through Grian’s chest as the words sink in. He thrashes desperately, fighting against the haze.
“No!! No, I take it back, I take it back! Don’t hurt them! Take me instead!!” He screams, pounding at the walls of white mist enclosing him, weakening him. But his words fall on deaf ears, and it’s then when the white overtakes him.
The world fades out into nothing.
And Grian is gone.
The cloaked figure stands in the empty space for a few seconds more, staring at nothing. It turns, cloak swishing behind it, and slowly fades away, leaving the strange, empty world.
Only a whisper is left behind.
“A deal is a deal, Grian.”
….
All around the server, 11 players vanish.
….
A new world opens, receives, then locks.
And Scar opens his eyes to a world of sand.

Don’t mind me, just screaming into the void for a hot sec.
HOW THE FUCK DO I GET THIS GUY TO LIKE ME?! Like I am too shy and afraid of rejection to approach him so I need him to approach me but we’ve like never formally spoken one on one with each other (nor really to each other)
We hung out for like two and a half hours in a bigger group once but like we didn’t really talk to each other and we were working at the time. (But to help myself and fuel my delusional thinking, I will report that I did catch him looking at me a couple times and I’m gonna choose to read into that)
Like where is my rom com meet cute?

I need to scream into the internet void for a sec bc I am very angry.
The people on tiktok are making this trend of telling people that they look like characters from a movie they made up in the comments of their tiktoks. Like goncharov. The only problem is that they refuse to tell people who don't know about this movie that it isn't real. So people are left wondering what the fuck they were just told they look like and where it comes from but the person who said it only tells them it's from a movie called "zepotha" and won't elaborate. AND THESE PEOPLE GET MAD WHEN YOU EXPLAIN TO OTHERS THAT IT'S NOT REAL. AT LEAST THE PEOPLE ON TUMBLR TOLD PEOPLE AND TAGGED GONCHAROV AS UNREALITY.
These tiktok people WANT you to be confused bc they think it's funny. And even if they wanted to warn people, you can't add tags to tiktok comments.
It was just a disaster of an idea and it's already causing harm to others. Why can't the internet learn from other communities instead of pitting themselves against anyone else

*🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁* DOUBLE MOODBOARD DELIVERY 4 MY FAVE SPANISH BBY BOO ✨MACA✨!! :DD
🚚—————————🎁🎁
(Jan/Jure roadtrip as a lil add on 2 the beach date moodboard N Bokris! ice cream date cuz setting all the ships sailing is fun :3) back at the delivery place were still kinda waiting on the stories 4 these two soo I a lil snippets of what happened on both dates will have 2 suffice ☺️.
Jan/Jure: With there not being alot of beaches in Slovenia the two kitties of JO had 2 get there by car which ment one thing ✨BLACK CAT N ORANGE CAT ROADTRIP✨! Tho in this case they took Jure’s campervan 4 a ride,took a ton of polaroids N had a few cuddle sessions when they hit a particularly slow red light that wouldn’t change 2 green even if U threw a rock at it (Janci almost fell asleep at one of the lights b4 Jure realised N had 2 poke his side till he woke so the chronically tired guitarist wouldn’t be caught sleeping behind the wheel 🗿).Once they stopped the camper 4 a break,Jurcek found a lil heart shaped puddle N being the chaotic lil kitten he is decided 2 jump in it N got his whole upper body soaked so Jan had 2 bundle him up in a couple towels from the large beach bag they stored in the back of the van.(N definitely didn’t let his eyes wander all over his sopping wet boyfriends body while he was drying off ☺️)after what must of been forever the two arrived at the destination N took everything needed from inside the camper N ran down the boardwalk 2 the beach,hands interlinked N a another round the blonde drummers waist..
Bokris: After all being in Paris THE city of love,it’s only natural our cunty princess Krisko wanted 2 take his man on a date with all the trimmings,ice cream,music stores N 2 top it all off a stroll around one of the streets with a HUGE flower display that covered the pavements with millions of different flower petals scattered around the place! The guitarist N singer couple went 2 a ton of ice cream shops from sorbet 2 ones themed after animals N even one with gigantic portions,toppings layered one after another N a huge chocolate bunny in the middle.(Ofc Bojan was basically high on sugar N acted like a highly excitable puppy the rest of their date but he was happy N not stressing about shows even more than Kris does so that was the only thing which rlly mattered 2 the tall half-Dutch rn 😚),as soon as he spotted a rack of various pink coloured guitars he was just as smiley N excited as his Bojci,rambling on N inspecting each one (if U looked close enough U could see his pupils growing wider N stars shining in them the way Bojan always loved 🥰🥰).Soon enough they had made it 2 street were the flower display was,gazing at every one in awe of all the colours that decorated each bouquet N tugging at Kris’s arm like a child when he saw a bunch of rose petals forming a heart as the wind made each one dance into whatever shape it wanted.Finding a patch of buttercups Bojan placed it in his princess’s hair,making the younger roll his eyes at the cheesy gesture tho the faint smile that tugged at his lips betrayed those feelings as he felt his boyfriends hands slip around his neck into a lingering kiss (even standing on his tippy toes wasn’t enough 4 Bojci 2 reach his love so in the end Kris had 2 bend down like every other time ☺️)not like he’d want it any other way tho,not 4 the world..

Xisuma stepped through the nether portal—
And instead of hellish heat, he was hit with a wave of cold washing over his body and sending a seizing shock through his limbs. He fought to suck in a deep breath, ribs constricting. What in the—had he fallen through the world somehow? Darkness and cold—but this wasn’t the void. More like… Water?
He floundered, confused and disoriented, his hands waving wildly. They met with resistance, cutting through something that felt like a thick gel.
There was something on his face. There was something on his face—
Thrashing, his knuckles smashed into a curved, hard surface, and he gasped in a breath of stale, machine-flavored air, unable to expand his lungs enough to scream—
“Whoa, hold up there, man,” a voice chimed in his ear, “Don’t panic now, man. We’ll get you out in jus’ a sec—jus’ hang on, m’kay?” The voice was tinny and distorted, as if played from an old jukebox a hundred blocks away.
But it was familiar.
Renbob. He knew that voice—Renbob. Which meant…
A greenish light appeared in the darkness ahead of him, and Xisuma squinted, his eyes unexpectedly stinging and watering. The light quickly bloomed into a line—a gap, he realized. It widened, opening top to bottom like the maw of a dragon and he found himself blinking in the bright glow of endrods, shaded green by the thick liquid that surrounded him.
Suspension chamber.
It was… this was the Hermitheus. It had all been a dream—Or, not a real dream. A simulation. A way to pass the time between seasons.
As memory flooded back and the sound of the tank draining gurgled in his ears, Xisuma let himself relax. His heartbeat pounding in his ears slowed, and he spread his fingers against the curved glass of the chamber’s glass front, pressing against it and reassuring himself of its solidity.
The moon… That hadn’t happened. They were all fine. The world wasn’t destroyed—because it had never existed, except in their imaginations. Everyone was safe. Everyone was—
Oh.
Xisuma tapped one finger on the glass. “Renbob?” he called, his voice distorted through the breathing mask that covered his face. “No panic anymore, but I need to get out of here asap, please.”
“I’ll get right on it, man! Just ooooone sec.”
Xisuma waited—trying not to be impatient, he’d been in here for months, he could stand a few more minutes—while the last of the gel drained through the grate at his feet and fresh air hissed into the chamber. Finally, with a clunk that rattled the pod, the glass front slid open, and he reached up to unhook the facemask strapped over his nose and chin.
“Here, man, lemme take that for you.” Renbob stepped around the edge of the pod’s door and grinned, holding out one hand. “How you feelin’, man?”
“Wobbly.” Xisuma passed him the mask and reached for the wall, steadying himself as he stepped down and out of the chamber. “And insanely hungry. And I might die if I don’t get a real cup of tea in the near future—ah,” he winced. The world spun around him, and he closed his eyes for a moment, catching his breath. “But I have… something I need to do first.”
“Pretty sure you just need to sit down, man—you really shouldn’t be up and about so soon after getting out of the pods.” Renbob gave him a shrewd once-over, his cheerful expression failing to hide the evaluating gleam in his eye. “But I don’t think you’re going to listen to me.”
“I listen all the time, my friend.” Xisuma shook off the wave of dizziness and pushed himself back up straight. “But this is really important.”
Renbob squinted at him for a moment, then gave a decisive nod. “You know what you’re doin’, man,” he said. “I’ll trust your judgment—but if you keel over, just shout and I’ll be right there, m’kay?”
“‘Kay, sounds perfect.” Xisuma blinked and focused past Renbob on the larger room. “No one else is awake yet, right?”
“Nah, man. You’re the first.”
“What about—”
Renbob held up a hand, cutting him off. “You’re the first,” he repeated. “I swear, man. It’s just you, me, and Goatman up and about right now.”
Xisuma nodded. Hesitating for a moment, he lowered his voice—as if one of the other hermits floating in the shielded suspension chambers behind him could somehow hear his words. 
“Something went wrong, Renbob,” he said. “He was there.”
One eyebrow almost vanished into Renbob’s shaggy hairline. “He wasn’t even part of the season eight program, man. He’s got his own—”
“I know, I—” Xisuma took a deep breath. “I know,” he said again. “I need to check on him.”
Renbob stepped back. “Same place as always, man,” he said. “Let me know if you need anything.”
...
(to be continued)

im gonna rant into the void for a sec here because i just finished buddy daddies like two minutes ago and my brain is not computing/accepting that it's over :(
im also realizing i dont actually have much to say except that i have so much emotion all i feel like actually doing is screaming.
ok. but ill try to say something i guess. first, i really appreciate how the show didnt feel extremely rushed, like it had a decently fleshed out plot line from start to finish that didnt hold unnecessary twists and turns that would make it feel too jumbled. i find some shows do this cause they feel like viewers need a lot to pay attention to (which is silly to me and my pea sized brain) but buddy daddies had their main idea and stuck to it and it worked. i also liked how ambiguous rei and kazuki's partnership was, like it could literally go any way with them, from being just friends/partners to something more together and either would make sense. i did find in the last episode there were definitely some more subtle moments to get the mind going than in any other episode (imo), which i loved, but ultimately it was really just about miri and their love for her. which is like, the whole show lmfao
and just the details of the last episode, ogino dying without his last words, boss not being able to shoot at the last second, the tiny detail of rei not using his arm in the timeskip (i could cry), rei's SMILE, miri with her moms picture, miri jumping on rei in the beginning, rei and kazuki doing what i would imagine is their last 'job' together... god i could go on
also... can we talk about kazuki's goatee... i can't lie im obsessed, but more in the sense that it is exactly something he would do, definitely a dad move.
im really happy with the ending and honestly a second season would be great but im also really happy with what we got.. definitely gonna be a rewatch/comfort show from now on!

After literally just throwing my previous thoughts into the void without any real structure, I realised that, no, actually I really wanted to break this down properly even if only for my own peace of mind, so:
That teal-green colour is shared between the twili and everything we’ve seen of the zonai tech in TotK thus far, standing distinctly apart from the true-blue of the sheikah tech. While the Palace of Twilight does have a lot of red-tech, this is Zant’s influence (just as the twili themselves are riddled with red markings when in their corrupted, bestial forms, but teal-green when returned to their true forms by the light of the sol orbs.
Speaking of TP’s sol orbs, the zonai charge we saw in the new gameplay footage looks a hell of a lot like a smaller, modified version of one, which would make sense seeing as when Link first encounters one of these glowing spheres, Midna describes it as “the source of life in [the twilight realm]... it is pure power.” In other words, it’s the perfect candidate to function as the primary power core of a construct.
The Twilight realm itself (or the little we see of it, at least) is a series of small floating islands in the sky. Need I say more?
Totk’s newly released emblem with its three eyes doesn’t not look like the glowing carvings behind the twilight throne. Again, we see snakes and eyes and swirls... you get the picture. Given how the symbols associated with the rest of Hyrule’s races have evolved throughout various games, I wouldn’t think it an impossible reach.
Zant’s entire design //screams// zonai. The carvings on his helmet and shoes echo the zonai carvings that litter BotW’s overworld, his shoulder pads have snakes akin to TotK’s ourborors, and the same can be said for the embroidery of his sleeves which AGAIN comes in that same teal-green.
Midna’s headpiece has those same zonai-dragon-heads, and combined with her glowing teal-green embroidery & tattoos that almost look like circuitry, and her skirt is pattered with gears that represent the fact that the twili were not only magic users but in possession of advanced technology (moving platforms / giant hand sentinels / sol spheres),,, it’s not hard to believe that, given a little more time, the twili’s level of advancement in TP could very easily have become that of the zonai in TotK.
Midna’s fused shadow helmet is considered a “dark/forbidden power” and that may well be true, but... again it’s designs not only look like those of the zonai (geometric patterns & snakes) but also circuitry, and it’s really not that much of a stretch to think that what the twili achieved was an advanced technology that either looked like or was literally powered by magic. Either way, the abilities of the fused shadow (to corrupt and empower) and that of the mirror of twilight (to travel between worlds) are //astounding//, and again in line with the feats of engineering that the zonai were evidently capable of judging by not just the ruins that litter Hyrule, but in particular the three labyrinths.
Jumping back to colour analysis for a hot sec, the construct’s eyes are really important to me: yellow and red/orange. the two colours that the twili’s eyes were shown to be (Zant’s yellow, the unnamed civilians’ red, and Midna’s a combination of the two). The eye of the fused shadow is also a dead-ringer for those of the constructs.
TotK’s deity could very well be wearing a fused shadow of its own (or something like it) Assuming the seven objects surrounding it are something link has to collect throughout the game, they might be collected in those little glowing green phials we saw him carrying around in one of the trailers, and those very much reminded me of collecting the tears of light in TP (and also SS’s silent realms but please god don’t make me do that again they were terrifying).
Narratively speaking, the zonai (their name being a take on nazo, a word meaning "mystery" in Japanese) ~mysteriously~ disappeared one day without a trace... the twili were banished to the twilight realm by the golden goddesses... if I were an average hylian citizen, I’d find that pretty damn mysterious.
I, personally, miss the twili and would like them back please and thank you.

Holy fuck I know that there are way bigger problems in the world right now but I’ve been dealing with chronic back pain for like 5 months and I need to scream into the void for a sec. I’ve been to the doctors so many times and tried all the treatments I’ve been prescribed from topical medications, anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, physical therapy and none of them have provided any significant relief. Also, the root cause of the pain isn’t fixable- I have fucking spine degeneration at age 19, which was confirmed by an MRI. What the fuck. I’d never even injured it or anything like that. The pain just randomly started one day, and within a week was bad enough that I had to go to the doctor. I still can’t even push a vacuum around for 20 minutes without being in so much pain that I have to take it easy for the rest of the day. I’ve had a rough year anyways, lots of significant changes in my life that have affected my already poor mental health, and this is just the fucking cherry on top. I feel like I’m finally working through some of my fear-induced paralysis about moving forward with other aspects of my life, but I like physically can’t. I haven’t been able to work since this all started, so I can’t save for the future. I’m going back to college in January and I’m worried that just the effort of getting to and from my classes will completely exhaust me. I’m just so tried all the time- the pain isn’t excruciating when I’m not actively bending or lifting things, but it’s constant. I’m so fucking tired. I just want things to get better for once.

Ok so I saw Film Red again today and here are my ramblings about it
Spoiler warning!
-I love Uta’s outfit when she takes out the pirates trying to kidnap her the lance is really cool
-The stamina it’s gotta take to keep the sing-sing illusion going is bonkers Blueno makes a comment about how taxing it is to use the door-door fruit and remembering how little Law could do during Dressrosa and Punk Hazard to save his energy for fighting I think helps put into perspective just how crazy it is that Uta is creating a fantasy world where the people there essentially can have anything they want while also duking it out with the marines in reality and being under the affects of wakeshroom overdose
-Explains why she can save luffy from water despite being a df user herself because his real body is still on dry land
-I just thought it was interesting that when they were younger after Luffy Yassop was the first other pirate to wake up from Uta’s singing
-When asked what the audience thinks of pirates a child screams for the pirates to bring their mother back which makes me think if Uta has enough information could she “Bring back the dead” in a sense?
-During the little montage of Gordon explaining Uta’s past when she gets the transponder snails and starts to gain fans she literally starts climbing pedestals as the fans send their love until finally she sits on the very top and all she hears are all the awful things happening elsewhere (mostly due to pirates) which if you think about the fact that Uta KNOWS she was the one who destroyed Elegia (only a year after it happened?) it makes sense why she feels the need to bring a world of peace to these people that maybe it can right her own wrongs (even tho it was really tot musica possessing her as a child and taking its revenge on the island that imprisoned it)
-She isn’t omnipotent in the sing world it being the limits of a df but I imagine her awakened form very much could be
-I love that SunnyKun is a little lion thing but god I wish Law had to carry his ship in a fish bowl or a little room bubble
-WHY DOES SANJI SLEEP LIKE THAT 💀
-The fact that Uta can also use peoples devil fruit powers is crazy wild and the fight between Uta and Fujitora/Kizaru is super fucking cool
-The snails can still transmit videos outside of reality I think it would be cute if you caught a transponder snail napping u could see their little snail dreams (I imagine doflamingo’s transponder snail has nightmares 💀)
-ODA PLS I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE ROCKY PORT INCIDENT QUIT TEASING US WITH KOBY AND GIVE HIM THE SPOTLIGHT FOR A SEC I BEG
-I love that there are people in the crowd for and against staying in Uta’s sing world I imagine if things had gone differently and Uta was upfront about her ability she really could have made a world for people to be happy for a bit even if it is ultimately a dream
-Law putting Luffy in timeout is hilarious but also Luffy breaks out of Bart’s ball and ends up getting put BACK IN TIME OUT 😂
-Ok so they explain that Tot musica is literally man’s fear and doubts given form to this “demon” I love that on the flip side Uta is an angel of hope (but also love the fight between luffy and tot being a god vs demon thing)
-I was surprised for a second when Robin didn’t chew out Franky for destroying the records room but it is only in the dream I imagine when they woke up she took another peak down there 👁
-Going back to Tot being an entity created from human emotions luffys is too? Luffy’s is just happiness
-Oven makes a comment about there being a record because this was an incident that happened before and with how old the music papers were I wonder if this was during the void century ^reasons robin would take another look
-Everyone looks so good everyone looks so hot usopppppppp ♥️♥️♥️
-I like that Luffy actually gives a clear answer on why he wants to become the king of pirates and it’s to create a new era I wonder what it would be called
-Is it just me or did Gordon sound WAY more upset in the dub when he goes “THEYRE DEAD! EVERYONES DEAD!!! THEY KILLED THEM!” Because in the sub he seemed a lot more reserved about it
-I still don’t think the red haired pirates should have left uta I get that what happened is a lot they didn’t want that on her consciousness but I think just straight up lying to her about it was also terrible imo
-“Bad guys need to look like Bad guys” literally makes them look so fucking cool probably my favorite strawhat outfits individually but absolutely my favorite look as a group for suresies
-When Tot Musica shows up the Five Elders couldn’t mute the recording making me think for a second they were asleep too but also where do the people asleep elsewhere go in their dream? And that Tot can manipulate the transponder snails too is scary
-Tot musica is actually super scary ngl
-That flute is way way too loud when luffy and uta make up
-Ben saying our daughter kills me yesss
-Sanji bringing back the “Something only u can do” for Brûlée
-Also can I take a second and say brûlée and oven look so good in this movie I do wish that other characters got more spotlight but I’m glad they don’t look like trash or are used as the butt of a joke
-I could do with less Bartolomeo……
-I loved seeing Koby take charge for the final battle strategy wise I really want to see the Rocky port incident!!!
-Katakuri and brûlée sharing sight is cool but that also makes me think brûlée has observation haki considering katakuri usopp and yassop do which makes sense considering her df powers and how she uses it mostly for intel gathering for mama
-Sanji and zoro cooperating for .5 seconds is always fun
-Usopp finally calming down and using his haki is so so good
-Zues is alive and with Nami pls pls pls pls plssssss
-Everyone fighting simultaneously at the end is probably one of my favorite one piece moments I’m ngl all the build up and then actually knowing the characters it just all fit so well the music fucking rocked and I had a great time
-Shanks being found by Rodger in a chest is super fucking cute but Oda really pulled one over us giving Uta red hair but that makes me think why would a baby like Uta be found in a chest (I’m assuming it’s bc baby uta ate a df so someone was just going to sell her or whatever) but before Uta’s backstory was revealed I was leaning heavily on Uta being something created by Vegapunk a la the seraphim
-Uta looks so tired by the end Jfc let her sleeeep
-Oda really has to kill all of Luffy’s siblings Jfc 💀
-Loved the credit scene now I know that Johnny and Yosaku are just chilling with Nojiko
-Also the after credit scene when luffy tries to talk to sunny again for a second is still cute and I’m convinced this proves that sunny has a soul because uta only affects people’s souls and when she changed the people in the dream she didn’t make them disappear but changed their form into toys etc that’s why I think sunny didn’t just disappear but was turned into sunnykun
