One time I was in my english class and my teacher told us to raise our hands if we believed in aliens or extraterrestrials and I obviously shot my hand up and looked around expecting everyone to have their hands up because everyone knows ALIENS EXIST.. BUT GUESS WHAT?? Nobody- and I mean NOBODY had their hands up! They all looked at me and gave me weird faces as if I was crazy!??

I see a lot of people saying things like “guys they just can’t confirm nandermo canon, that would be spoilers!!” but I think that is missing the shitty thing about this whole situation.
Nandermo does not have to be end-game at all. They’re will-they-won’t-they, it’s in the name. And that dumb “he’s his boss” comment is funny as shit and insane in many ways, but not my problem.
My problem is the super homophobic notion that them “hooking up” would somehow make their relationship “less pure” (how their relationship could ever be seen as pure in any way is a mystery to me but okay). And while he isn’t explicitly saying it, the implied point is that any romance at all would be ruining a perfectly wholesome relationship, which is a very old homophobic talking point.
Am I the only one seeing this? Am I reading into it too much? I’ve only seen people making (very funny) jokes about this but isn’t it actually pretty fucked up?

(Hello! Here’s some Catnap x Dogday’s incorrect quotes!)
Catnap: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response.
Dogday: Wow. They sound stupid.
Catnap: But they’re not. They’re really smart actually. Just dense.
Dogday: Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!”
Catnap: I guess you’re right. Hey Dogday, I love you.
Dogday: See! Just say that!
Catnap: Holy f---ing s---.
Dogday: If that flies over their head then, sorry Catnap, but they're too dumb for you.
Catnap: Dogday.
Catnap: Look at me straight in the eyes and tell me the truth, Dogday!
Dogday: You can’t expect me to look into your eyes and be straight.
Dogday, sweating: Catnap, there’s something I need to ask you-
Catnap: Finally! You’re proposing!
Dogday: How’d you know?
Catnap: Dogday, you’ve dropped the ring five times during dinner.
Catnap: I even picked it up once.
Catnap: Dogday and I are no longer dating.
Dogday: Catnap, that’s a horrible way of telling people we’re married.
Dogday: So... what would you do if you were in bed with me?
Catnap: Depends. Is your bed comfortable?
Dogday: Yes.
Catnap: I'd sleep.
Dogday: Catnap, you love me, right?
Catnap: Normally I’d say yes without hesitation, but I feel like this is going somewhere I won’t like.
Dogday: I think I'm falling for you.
Catnap: Then get up.
Dogday: Are you ready to commit?
Catnap: Like, a crime or a relationship?
Dogday: I am so cool. I am an absolute Chad. I am the epitome of coolness and awesomeness—
Catnap: Hi.
Dogday: *melts down in a flustered heap of softness*

Rex: I'm going to ask you to be respectful. Ahsoka: I will politely decline.

star wars is just so ridiculous. like I am a huge fan of it myself, probably more than I care to admit, but I’ll tell you wholeheartedly just how insane it is. there’s no way around it, you just have these people doing things and the things are just so insane. like okay, this giant slug captured our best friend so now we have to plan an elaborate con to get the hell outta dodge which includes temporary slavery for at least three members of our crew and no less than fifty-seven near death experiences. you have glowing swords that defy the laws of physics as we know them. you have aliens that look like puppets because that’s just how it was done and you can’t stray from tradition. you have droids that are fully autonomous and might as well be sentient, but they’re never treated as such so they’re in a weird limbo between artificial intelligence and actual intelligence. nothing makes sense and yet somehow there’s a cohesive world that’s based on six movies and has now exploded so far and so wide that no one can keep track of what’s going on and when, and characters are starting to lose their core selves and have just turned into a big marketing scheme. it’s honestly so incredibly ridiculous and I think that’s okay, you can enjoy dumb stuff. I know I certainly do

I think there’s a big misconception between red and blue viewers about the nature of feeling defeated.
I can’t speak for red, because I don’t watch them, but I see people using red’s first day as a counterargument to what’s happening with blue practically every day. As I understand, their first day was hell, because they were in a severe disadvantage as a team. They’re lore-heads and ‘dumb lucky’ (i am NOT calling them dumb, they are actually all really smart, i am just saying that they are stupidly lucky sometimes), this is not what can give you a win when you are thrown in that game. On the first day. They did get killed a lot and they were going insane. And they were having fun! Listen, I’ve read SO many posts about how funny and cool red’s first day was and hoe people absolutely enjoyed it. And it’s cool.
But it’s COMPLETELY different to blue. Blue are not in the ‘fuck it we ball’ defeat mood. Because they are never given a chance to just enjoy their wins.
1st day – they got SO much backlash for everything that it was genuinely horrible
2nd day – red found the global task strat. Which is fine. But blue had the whole day of just struggling to understand how FOUR PEOPLE TRYING AND TRYING cant overtake one Etoiles on a leaderboard.
3rd day – they’ve been leading the score all day. Did everything they could pretty much. And again, last minute strat. Which was fair, but it’s a big hit on their morale.
4th day – they win, using the same strat. they specifically did it the way they did just to show how broken it is. they get layers and layers of hate from twitter.
5th day – both red and blue give win to green. this day was neutral.
6th day – the egg preparations. blue decided to just give this day away as well. but bad and pac were hunted for hours just two of them.
7th day – the Egg Wars. we all know what happened :D
8th day – elimination. blue won. blue could’ve easily win without even trying to tie with green, but they did. they almost succeeded. it didn’t feel as a victory when they won, because everyone just blamed them. that wouldn’t happen if green won, everyone would cheer, and it’s a fact.
9th day – that’s today. bad and bagi were constantly hunted for about 3 hours. they couldn’t get into the base for like 4,5 hours (they can now because tubbo is guarding the bounty npc).
Each day when they lose – they lose without sympathy and any kindness from others. Each day they win – this victory is bitter, clawed out and they are hated.
Yes, red and blue both know this feeling of not being able to do anything. But Red have so much support on their side. Both in-game and in-fandom. They are praised for everything they do. They got so much less troubles from blue and green because they kept walking away to not ‘punch down’ from this whole underdog narrative. Meanwhile blue just keep being screwed by everything around them. I think arguably the only thing they have over red is the favor of Lil Buddies, because they are constantly hanging out with them. That’s all. All material stuff they have will be easily matched like tomorrow. They’ve never really had a PVP advantage in the first place because Green’s skills and Red’s players count.
It’s genuinely demotivating to even watch their stream. Like I think I would genuinely cry in their place. All their efforts are either useless, because they immediately get nerfed, or get hated on by literally everyone and everything. It’s such a deep-rooted feeling of loosing before you could even play, that it transfers over the screen.
Red burned in that fire on the first day. And it powered them (in a cursed but fun way). Blue keeps being drowned by everything around them like unwanted kittens, and they are fighting for their life.
So no, I do not think it’s fair to compare Red’s first day to anything that happens to Blue. It’s not the same. I do understand however that it defied them as characters, so it’s a fair point to analyze. But in meta-arguments? Yeah, no. [insert a poll ‘Who suffered more? Blue Team Jesus]
And yet they try. And yet they have nice moments. And yet they are friends. Love prevails.

More incorrect Steddie because, once again, I am bored (all prompts from this website):
****
Steve: I like your new pants.
Eddie: Thanks, they were 50% off.
Steve: I'd like them better if they were 100% off. *winks*
Eddie: The store can't just give away clothes for free.
Steve: That's...that's not—
Eddie: That's a terrible way to run a business, Steve.
****
Eddie: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response.
Steve: Wow. They sound stupid.
Eddie: But they’re not. They’re really smart actually. Just dense.
Steve: Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!”
Eddie: I guess you’re right. Hey Steve, I love you.
Steve: See? Just say that!
Eddie: Holy fucking shit.
Steve: If that flies over their head then, sorry Eddie, but they're too dumb for you.
Eddie: Steve.
****
Steve: Bro—
Eddie: Wait, no no, hold up, rewind—my tongue was down your throat a second ago and you're calling me "bro"?
****
Steve: Valentine's Day is a consumerist holiday that holds no real value other than driving people insane buying heart-shaped chocolates for their significant others and pos—
Eddie: I wrote you a poem.
Steve, already crying: You did?
****
Eddie: That was so hot, Steve.
Steve: I literally just called the person who flirted with you a degenerate dog and told them I hope they get dragged through the streets.
Eddie: I am so in love with you.
****
Eddie: There are twenty letters in the alphabet, right?
Steve: Nope, there's twenty-six.
Eddie: Ah, I must have forgotten U, R, A, Q, T.
Steve: Aww, that's cute, but you're still missing one.
Eddie: You'll get the D later.
****
Eddie: I'm in love with you.
Steve: We called off the prank war at midnight last night, dork.
Eddie: Yeah, I know.
Steve: Oh. Okay. Um...cool. Neat. Very cool.
****
Steve: Ugh, crushes are so dumb.
Eddie: I know. Whenever I'm near a person I like, I just start acting stupid.
Steve: But...you're always acting stupid?
Eddie: ...yeah, don't think about that too hard.
****
Steve: I still have no idea how I'm attracted to you.
Eddie: Yeah, well, you're stuck with me. No takebacks.
****
Steve, throwing his head onto Eddie's lap: Tell me I'm pretty!
Eddie, gently stroking Steve's hair: You're pretty fucking annoying, that's what you are.
****
Eddie: You have to apologize to her, Steve.
Steve: Fine! But just know that this might make me a better, nicer person, and that is NOT the person you fell in love with!
****
Eddie: As top in this relationship, I think we should—
Steve: I can't believe you're pulling rank on me.
****
Eddie: Are we fighting or flirting?
Steve: I have you pinned to the wall with my hand around your neck.
Eddie: Your point?
****
Steve: Hey, Eddie, what do you think it would be like if we had kids?
Eddie: What would it be like? Inconvenient, mostly.
Steve: No, I mean, what would they be like, the kids? You ever think about it?
Eddie: Can't really say I have.
Steve: You know, for someone as eccentric as yourself, you can be boring as fuck sometimes.
Eddie: Sorry, Steve. For what it's worth, I'm picturing them now. Three boys and three girls. Six perfect little freaks of nature raised by people who've clearly got no business bringin' up anybody.
****
Steve: Go fuck yourself.
Eddie: Sure, but only if you watch.

BOO!!!!! sillyguy jumpscare
“looks like a raver ancient built him” - my friend
“i am SUCH a fan of how you make all of your fanocs annoying himbos with unnecessary swag” - my other friend
“he’s fresh sans” - like, two people
so — he’s finally here!!! the Basketball!!!! be warned INSANE and MINDBLOWING loredrop below‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ as well as some general trivia about NWB + some more silly doodles
The Ancients, dissatisfied with the very prominent lack of results the Iterator project was bringing, began having doubts. Perhaps they had gone about this the wrong way? After all, the jellyfish that doesn’t try is the one that doesn’t get caught in the net. It seemed they had made their design of the Iterators inherently flawed — they tried too hard to solve the Problem, over and over and over again.
It was time for something new. An alternative.
And so, the idea for the Anti-Iterator project was brought into the world — a whole generation of Iterators that didn’t try. Some called it redundant, some pointless. But it convinced plenty, certainly enough to make that idea a reality, and the plan came into fruition.
No Way Back was the first created; his name was given to him to signify a turning point, a new era of Iterators. One that would bring with it change and, hopefully, finally, a solution.
so anyway NWB did absolutely nothing except talk excessively about the ancients’ fashion and sometimes ask them for their drip clothes for his collection and also make cringefail music. the project was discontinued immediately
Tumblr media
NOW!!! TOP 10 GAMER TRIVIA:
- makes the shittiest sounding music possible, sincerely believes it’s peak art. if you don’t think the same way he’ll say You dont get it. You just dont
- fan of fashion, art & history, but in a normal way (unlike pebbles). really wishes he could have a whole wardrobe of clothes like his creators, but they’re all gone now </3 and even back then when they were all still alive they. did not like giving him stuff (they did not like him)
- one of them did give him the nikeys though
- most of his creators deemed him useless and didn’t particularly care for him. however, some of them (usually the kids) liked talking with NWB, and he enjoyed interacting with them too. he kind of misses the ancients even if they were asses
- is an enigma to his local group: he barely sends messages, and when he does it’s wildly off topic, and literally NEVER about work related stuff. occasionally he’ll drop his “bangers” in the groupchat and ask for opinions. unfortunately most of the iterators ignore him because they find him annoying (and useless as well. very ancientcore of them)
- kind of incomprehensible. he just says things
- doesn’t really have a god complex so he’s generally friendly, open-minded and easy going, but if you’re mean to him he’ll go Wow. Not cool, man. and he’ll probably give you a lecture like a 90s PSA
- calls himself a DJ. doesn’t even have a proper DJ name. probably doesn’t even know what a club is
- fan of nature, enjoyer of life. has no friends and no purpose but doesn’t let it get to him. at least he can make the equivalent of cbat 2 and force every iterator in the world to listen to it
- he’s stupid but he’s also really smart because. supercomputer. however he chooses to not use his brain and instead be silly. he thinks it’s funnier that way
- sometimes sends his music to other iterators besides his local group’s. they also ignore him
- you really can’t tell when he’s being ironic or not, and whether he’s really THAT dumb or if he’s just trolling. one thing for sure — he loves to mess with the stuck-up iterators from his local group if they decide to bother him
- if the ancients had any equivalent of the 80s, he would’ve been a very very big fan of it
- loves animals too. would call slugcat “little dude”
Tumblr media
leave your thoughts in the COMMENTS below!!! remember to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE and listen to DJNWB on SPOTIFY (suddenly becomes normal) if you have any questions feel free to ask and i will answer. i love this guy he’s my everything

Oh, joy))
Just had a fight with my father
Who’s completely lost to the propaganda, because he is extremely easily influenced
So i showed him those videos from Kyiv
And he says
“Answer this: Why won’t Zelensky sign a peace treaty?”
And I ask him
“Answer me this: Is this an excuse to kill innocent people???”
On which he says that every day everywhere people die whether you like it or not
So I ask him
“Are you serious??? Are you insane??? Are you fucked up????”
And he spilled alcohol on me))0
And called me a piece of shit
Who doesn’t understand anything
And who’s opinion doesn’t matter
Now))
This is exactly how our government looks on it’s people
He speaks their words
Because he listenes to their propaganda every single day from every device
From multiple devices at once even
Has been for years
Now.
How am i supposed to change minds of thousands of brainwashed people in my country
If I can’t even change my father’s mind
What am I to do
I can’t even hate him
Because I know that he literally has an official mental disorder
Which made him believe all kinds of liars - cultists, medical frauds - for as long as I remember
What am I to do?
What am I to do when people say that it’s not just Putin’s war, that russians must pay, that Russia must be bombed in return
Aside from the fact that the majority here is agains the war
But, just as in Hitler’s Germany, we are forced to keep our tongues shut
Which we don’t
And we get beaten up, arrested for bigger sentences than rapists and murderers
Used to instill more fear in people’s hearts
And to tell stories about “foreign agents” who were sponsored by “The West”
Should we start a civil war?
Should we kill people who are just too naive and bombarded by all sides by levels of propaganda Goebbels would look up to?
And
As a journalist
Believe me when I say that this propaganda is WICKEDLY smart
It uses all the methods known to history of information in a rapid fire speed
It even turned around my own desire to not see things “one sided” into the decision not to see anything at all in fear of being lied to
Which is dumb
But should i be killed for this?
I just kept listening and talking to people
Different people in my job
And a funny thing about a tattoo artists’ job
Is that there are many soldiers getting tattoos
Good thing is, many of them come and tell us that they quit, that this war is pointless, that it’s just our government making money from it
But some don’t
Yet when I talk to them
They
Talk like
People
Not some monsters
Just people
But they truly believe
That they’re doing a good thing
That they’re fighting to free the oppressed
That they’re fighting to protect their people
Or to avenge their fallen comrades
I
I might be just too naive and empathetic myself
But
I don’t want them killed either
I don’t want any deaths
Haha
I want a third path
Hahaha
Yeah, I might be too influenced by the ideas of a fictional character who is also called stupid and naive for his views
But
I don’t know
The only people I want to be punished are those who rule this machine of war and hate
And not only from our side
But
Maybe it was also told to me by propaganda
But i don’t think that American government wants this to stop too
I think I saw it in english media as well that US government is known for profiting on wars all around the world
Forgive and correct me if I’m utterly wrong
But in that same post that said that the entire russian population supports war
Was said that we could’ve stopped it
We
Tried.
Before the arrest of Navalny and soon after our opposition had the biggest rise in this century
We had so many mass protests
They were all brutally suppressed
Young men, women, literal kids and, I shit you not, literally VETERANS, GRANDPAS AND GRANDMAS who ALREADY LIVED THROUGH ONE WAR were BEATEN AND ARRESTED BY POLICE FORCES which are supposed to PROTECT THEM
After the arrest the oppression of opposition has strengthened
We lost our leaders and organisation
Protests began to lessen
Yet with the declaration of “The Special Military Operation” people ROSE AGAIN
And the same thing happened
But worse
So many brutal laws were adopted
All to ensure not a single negative word or movement against the government
So yeah me and my family might be soooo fucked for what I’m writing right now
I’m really not so sure if tumblr is safe
I’m riding on sheer hope for a fluke
But
I just
I am so sorry for keeping my eyes closed for so long
This app and talking to people here is what made me open them
What let me express my rage and made it boil to the point where I couldn’t shut up anymore
I don’t know if I should post this or not
I don’t know.
I might not
Will it make a single change?
I know a way of doing this safer and for a longer time
Actually
It would even be more influential
Yeah
But I wish there will be time
When I can no longer be afraid
And when my words will be heard loud and clear
Along with all the voices of those
Who stand with the free world
For peace and love
And
Hualian)

i never really paid much attention to star wars before the mandalorian so please forgive me if this is super obvious but: are we supposed to view the droids as being kind of alive? beings with artificial intelligence? i was very uncomfortable with how the ugnaughts (sp?) were portrayed in the last episode but i didn’t think much of the droids because always just saw them a technological tool. i was a little surprised when the bartender droid gave their monologue about the droids wanting to work and catch the bad droids, and thought maybe they want to work to fulfill their programming. but maybe i should have been more considerate. (i am kind of a dumb bitch too tho so maybe this is just something that’s super obvious to most people and not me :s)
Narratively I think droids are supposed to represent an advanced form of automation - astromechs are navigational droids that handle the immense amount of math that’s required to travel through space, droids like C3PO house linguistic and cultural information for diplomatic purposes, etc. I think originally, given that Star Wars was created prior to the internet being a thing, they were used to represent mass sums of human information, but access to that information was restricted to wherever those droids happened to be in spacetime. They’re essentially mobile computers, but not in the way we think of them (eg phones). But because they’re mobile and have to communicate with human beings without any touch screens or interfaces, especially in the case of droids like C3PO, they are by default anthropomorphised. It’s on par with people naming their roombas. These are tasks that are within human capability, but have been offloaded and automated to make everyone’s lives easier (and probably also many financial and political reasons, but that gets into like, the political economy of Star Wars, which if you talk about that you threaten to take Star Wars too seriously).
But, given how expansive Star Wars is, the answer to your question is maybe sometimes. Chopper in Rebels seems to fill the role of the beloved family pet. L3-37 in Solo is explicitly calling for droid liberation and insists that she and all other droids are equal to organics. Mouse droids likewise seem to be viewed as robotic animals. Mando again makes equivalent droid automation and slave labour.
However, this becomes complicated because there are also actual slaves in Star Wars. The clones are the most obvious example, but the twi’lek as a species also are often enslaved. There are also slaver “planets” and “races” who base their economy off of the buying and selling of slaves (that was in the clone wars, I can’t remember what episodes though). Droid liberation is often framed as inherently farcical in the franchise, but “droid liberation” also exists as a form of deracialised political action, and I mean that in the real world sense - droids are not analogous to a given real world conflict or historical process the way that like, twi’lek are (who even have french accents and speak space french! Now Filoni is an idiot and says this is because he’s drawing inspiration from the French Revolution as opposed to the much more appropriate and obvious Haitian Revolution, but whatever). So when drawing parallels between slavery as a thing in Star Wars and slavery as a real world historical process, it becomes frustrating to talk about, because droid lib is both set-up and punchline, but it’s also the most “acceptable” way to explore ending slavery in SW because it means the white writers don’t have to engage with systemic racial oppression in a way that might make them feel uncomfortable. As a comparison, there are multiple episodes in clone wars where clones refuse to follow orders or try to escape and they’re treated as defective or wrong or insane. That shit fucking sucks and it takes on a much more insidious tone than “haha, the droids want weekends off. how cute.”
And then the counter COUNTER problem with that, which is explicitly invoked in The Mandalorian, is that droids are essentialised to their code or “base functions.” These are facts about a droid that are intrinsic to their nature and cannot be altered or removed, and to attempt otherwise means perverting the “true nature” of droids - they are doomed to be what they were created for (I guess forget about IG-11 being rehabilitated lol). So when you call them slaves, and then insist they are forever shackled to their programming, that’s not a neutral storytelling choice, and you are essentially invoking the idea that there are some races or people for whom slavery is more naturally suited. Which is explicitly a white supremacist idea. And given the context of this storyline in The Mandalorian’s broader political problems, it becomes particularly nefarious.
All this to say - droids are maybe slaves. It depends on the story being told and why, it depends on the writer, etc. But when analogising it to real world history it becomes fraught, given that there are actual slaves in SW who are intended as obvious parallels to real world acts of slavery in human history, a thing that is omnipresent in star wars while also being largely ignored or dismissed by the writers

Squad 610 and CF99 shenanigans (and Nexu being hopelessly in love)
Nexu: We should be partners. Crosshair: You mean like, partners in crime? Nexu: Yeah... that’s precisely what I meant.
Mudhorn: GET BACK HERE YOU DUMB FUCK! Wrecker: LET ME RUN FROM THE CONSEQUENCES OF MY ACTIONS!
Nexu: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response. Crosshair: Wow. They sound stupid. Nexu: But they’re not. They’re really smart actually. Just dense. Crosshair: Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!” Nexu: I guess you’re right. Hey Crosshair, I love you. Crosshair: See! Just say that! Nexu: Holy fucking shit. Crosshair: If that flies over their head then, sorry Nexu, but they're too dumb for you. Nexu: Crosshair.
Tech: I am convinced Crosshair and Nexu share a brain cell. Wrecker: And it's not in use very often, it seems.
Mudhorn: So, are you two friends? Nexu: Yes. Crosshair: No.
Hunter: Mudhorn, you’re offered 500,000 dollars, but, if you accept it, the person you hate the most in the world gets 1,000,000 dollars. Would you take it? Mudhorn: Of course! I mean, why wouldn’t I want 1,500,000 dollars?
Lucky: We have fun, don’t we, Crosshair? Crosshair: I have never been more stressed out in my entire life.
Hunter: Do crabs think people walk sideways? Graveyard: ...Hunter, what the hell.
Nexu: Hold the fuck up. Crosshair: Excuse me? Nexu: I said hold the fuck up. Crosshair: Nexu: I’m the fuck up, hold me.
Graveyard: Sometimes, I don’t realize an event was traumatic until I tell it as a funny story and notice everyone is staring at me weird.

I think the thing I like about Anakin Skywalker so much is the relationships he has with other people - because they’re all different. They all have their own little niches. Character interaction and the dialogue they share is my favourite part of a character.
Obi-Wan is his brother/dad figure he can have banter with and who is trying to balance the line between mentor and friend, but is still looking out for him (even if he doesn’t appreciate it half the time!), while Anakin has this desparate want to be closer but fear also doing so because then Obi-Wan will know too much and leave. Plus, there’s the banter, my god these two chucklefucks.
Anakin: Everything I learned, Master, I learned from you Obi-Wan: Oh, if only that were true
Obi-Wan, where else would he have gotten that much audacity.
Ahsoka is his sister/daughter, similar to Obi-Wan he can relax with her but he has to at least try to reign himself in on his more bullshit antics to set a good example (if she doesn’t enable him first). He obviously cares for her, it’s just that his way of expressing he cares is a bit more intense than what other people are used to. Especially other Jedi.
Padme is obviously w i f e who is just as insane commitment wise as he is (literally, I will help you hide the body(ies)) and they are a source of escapism for each other. It’s juxtaposed by Anakin obvious awe of her whilst having a very jaded view of the Galaxy (for good reason admittedly).
Rex is his bro, his main man, his good time boy (this guy knew about Anakin’s marraige ffs, he was actively in on the secret) and you can tell that trust goes both ways. Don’t even get me started on Rex still carrying that torch well into Rebels, he clearly respected Anakin a lot. They probably raced each other to see who could enter a skirmish first. Unfortunately, it’s all undercut by the fact that Rex is a clone and Anakin is his superior.
Then there’s Palpatine, who for Anakin is the older mentor/grandfather role, someone with an ‘outside perspective’ he can go to for advice or just someone impartial who won’t reprimand him for venting/bitching about his current grievance... and it makes me want to scream. Anakin, you dumb fuck. Palps is literally telling him everything he wants to hear, he is enabling all of his worst traits, actively encouraging them and making them worse. Not to mention the casual dismissal of everyone else around him (who would have been able to protect him from Palpatine’s manipulations) playing on his insecurities - including the doubts he has about himself so that his own judgement can be skewed - only to play the ‘woe is me, I am but a humble old man, not a threat at all’ card. It’s a horrendously abusive relationship and the reason it works as well as it does is because Palpatine has gotten Anakin to defend it, to defend him. Anakin won’t hear a bad word about the man so no-one can make him realise just how vulnerable he is. You sick fuck, A+, game well played.

나야 나!
produce 101/idol au hcs
these r really rudimentary thoughts so . do what u will with them
Tumblr media
rin does Not give a fuck about fanservice. he’s the type of edgy contestant that stares at the camera and goes “watch me,” and his fans eat that shit up.
producers will be BEGGING this boy to smile and do some finger hearts at the camera, and he grimaces instead saying smth like “why do i need cheap tricks to show my skill as an entertainer?” MF UR ON AN IDOL SURVIVAL SHOW
otoya, on the other hand, lives to suck up to his fans. always stops in the middle of going from place to place to sign people’s banners, phones, fans, etc… it takes him forever to get from one place to another because of that
he also strikes me as the kind of guy who has all the tea abt everyone in the idol industry?? if u ever upset him, you better pray that otoya doesn’t call up blue lock’s version of dispatch the moment he gets a second alone. bllk! dispatch wld be out of business if it wasnt for him feeding them crumbs of idol drama 💀
bachira is the idol that’s constantly spamming social media. it’ll be 3 am in the morning, and everyone’s notifications are going ham because he’s posting shit like “my guts are baja blasting 🤪🤪🤪” while going through his post-taco bell poop.
at the same time though, he’s probably the one that’s the most “genuine” on camera? he does whatever he wants, so he doesn’t feel a need to fake a parasocial relationship with fans or craft a work persona. this is both a managerial nightmare and a dream-come-true, but we fuck w it here
i also think bachira wld be a dancer btw
nagi livestreams all his gaming sessions. sometimes he’ll set up an among us room to play with his fans (cough nct taeyong cough). he falls asleep all the time whenever he isn’t actively performing, so fans will sometimes play “where’s waldo” with nagi whenever another member is filming stuff backstage.
he’s also RIPPED so like people will sometimes ask him to show his abs and he’ll be like :X before yanking his shirt up. he doesn’t get why people ogle over him, but hey, it gets his bills paid so who is he to complain
karasu’s a rapper. i think the visual of him leaning back in his studio while working on songs is sooooooo hot. bonus points if we get pictures of his hands n stuff
ok i Know rin technically is the first place and leader of bllk eleven, but for some reason, karasu gives me leader vibes? he’s trying to round all the boys up while they’re doing dumb shit and hes standing there like 🧍 mamas i do not get paid enough for this
hiori joins nagi in on gaming. he livestreamed him dying his hair once. it was just him, god, and his truckload of fans in a cramped ass bathroom while he wrapped his head in foil and sat on top of the toilet.
he’s also the one that gets the brightass neon hair each comeback. u know the song’s abt to slap when hiori shows up looking like the froot loops mascot 🗿
chigiri’s sister won’t quit airing out chigiri’s dirty laundry, and it drives him insane. it also drives him crazy when people thirst after his sister. also i think his fancams wld go the most viral just bc he’s very pretty, and i think he’d be fairly reasonable with fanservice
although he does get pretty snappy sometimes, so it’s a delicate balance finding what he’s in the mood for. the hair stylists love dressing him up since he’s one of the less fussy members (thanks to how much his sister used to dress him up when he was younger)
one out of the two visuals of the group (the other being aryu)
aryu practices english with his fans! he’ll attempt interviews, posts, and livestreams entirely in english to learn, and he’ll do his best to correct his mistakes :) everyone’s very supportive of him, even when he’s rambling about his latest hair styling tips in broken english and bits of japanese
also because he’s so fucking tall, he solos everyone whenever those idol sports competitions come around. his long limbs are lethal, and people will thirstpost about him violently. he’s also very fashion-forward, so he collaborates often with the styling team about the group’s concepts and outfits!
ISAGI’S THE MEOWMEOW OF THE GROUP!! he’s trying his hardest and always delivers. he’s also down horrendous for whatever noel noa is as an idol, and he’s practically begging for a collaboration every other tweet. poor boy nearly shits his pants whenever he sees noa at an awards shows or other big events
i’d also love to see him star as an mc on music shows?? he gives off the perfect zealous yet cutesy vibes to pull that off. he’s the perfect level of awkward to be endearing, and he’s always invited back because of how polite and hardworking he is :] he also def has a lot of gap moe between his self as an absolutely fucking feral performer who rips up the stage versus him being Just A Dude offstage
reo was a trainee w nagi! he practices by doing covers of other idols’ works (im trying rlly hard to incorporate his chameleon thing into the idolverse ok), and he’s really touched when trainees do covers of his songs and dances too! it shows him how far he’s come :]
he ties his hair up a lot, so fans beg him constantly to put it down! id like to think nagi once caught him on a livestream fresh out of a shower w nothing but a towel around his waist, and people went fucking NUTS over 1) seeing reo half naked all drenched w water and 2) finally seeing him without his little bun
reo is also a dancer in my heart (i am never wrong btw <3)
omg cld u imagine all the cute names u cld give to barou’s fans? the king and his loyal kingdom :] people also wld kill to see his hair down and ungelled, but he doesn’t like it bc it feels unruly so there’s some beef between his management and him over that
he got wrestled into a maid outfit once, but people loved it so much it became a key moment for the group. he doesnt mind it as much as people thought he would, but definitely wld prefer to dress up in other costumes for once. barou’s also an extremely talented performer, often shining the most when he gets solo performances over group collaborative ones.
niko is literally junji from onlyoneof 🧍he also strikes me as the kind of guy to rock eboy fashion? he absolutely eats up any dark concepts!! he kinda detests cute concepts, but unlike rin (who’ll throw hands w his management), niko kinda learns to grin and bear it
niko also composes his own songs! he’s a very self-made idol, and he’ll treat his fans to a snippet of his latest project every now and then (this is me trying to incorporate his special skills but idol version pt 2)! he’ll lock himself in his room for days on end during off seasons to compose, only coming out to use the bathroom and eat at ungodly hours. other members sometimes drop by to bring him snacks and water
gagamaru’s a lil . unhinged to say the least . he does mukbang streams every once in a while, and it gives his management a stroke when it goes viral because he ate everything using his hands. he’s getting good at using utensils regularly, but hey, if his fans wanna see him stuffing his face in the way that makes him happiest, then who is he to upset them?
gagamaru also solos everything on idol sports shows. whenever he’s on one of those wilderness survival shows, he comes back out looking just the same as he did going in, if not better. he’s also so flexible that it drives every dancer in the industry green with jealous that they can’t control their body like he does. he’s still very sweet and humble though, so no one can really hate him since he’s just a big hunky goofball that does what he wants :]
YUKIMIYA KPOPS GEM YUKIMIYA KPOPS IT BOY YUKIMIYA OUTSOLD YOUR FAVES
ok fr tho yukimiya still keeps up with his modeling on the side (kinda hc to be a model-turned-idol), so he sneaks in a lot of his sponsors’ clothes into his idol outfits! those kpop fashion accounts are always scrambling to identify the clothes he’s wearing
he also has one hell of a gap between performing and being off stage, and he’s so goddamn charismatic that it feels like he’s a completely different person when he’s on stage. like he’ll be all smiley and sweet, and then he’ll go fucking feral just like isagi that it’s hard to believe he’s normally a soft-spoken gentleman whenever the cameras aren’t on him.
ok now that ive talked abt the bllk eleven, extra hcs of idol au bllk that werent part of the main team
aiku gets into so many dating scandals that they dont even feel like a scandal anymore. everyone wakes up and is like “oh this is who he was fucking w this time” and moves on. good for him ig? at least he’s free on that end
sendou gets nervous talking to girl groups. he’s also really generous w fanservice and does gravure photoshoot bc he knows what its like to be a fan of them. good for him good for him!! go feed ur fans!!
sae def placed first on a previous season of bllk produce 101, which got rin inspired to become an idol. imagine the tension at awards shows OOF 💀 or the questions people post abt the brothers potentially collaborating for a comeback. sae also hates fanservice, but he goes out of his way to shut that shit down
kaiser is kpop’s ace!! there is nothing this bitch can’t do! he also refuses to cover up his tattoo and shows it off whenever he gets the chance. talks about wanting to get more in the future, but his management’s successfully keeping him restrained… for now.
ness wld be disturbingly good at cute concepts… it’s crazy how easily he can get people to fall for him with his easygoing charm, but the second people start talking smack abt smth he likes, he turns murderous. it’s always the adorable ones you need to watch out for. sometimes fans admit to liking him more than kaiser which usually throws him for a loop.
speaking of concepts, shidou devours dark concepts too! i feel like he’d make one hell of a vocalist, and he’s constantly hounding sae for a collab together. even his regular clothes are striking enough to be confused for a stage outfit, and he takes a lot of pride in keeping up his demonic aura (even though he lives for the thrill of performing more than anything else)
kunigami gives off such husband material vibes. baby gets invited to shows where he babysits kids, cares for pets, etc and everyone just ends up falling more in love with him. he’s so respectful about turning people down too like goddamn how is this boy real
nanase is 100% the maknae of the group. bonus points if he originally came from a nugu group that rose to a fair amt of popularity, and now he’s starstruck that he gets to interact w idols that he looked up to for so long
ego def used to be an idol before retiring and becoming a manager/head honcho behind blue lock’s produce 101. he hates the artificiality of idols and pushes the boys to become their own version of what they expect an idol to be like. hes also insane in this au too
anri is one of the biggest managers of the produce project! she’s the one behind the scenes, setting everything up! the boys are extremely grateful towards her, and she even has her own dedicated fanbase!
tokimitsu has bad stage fright, and his fans do their best to support him! they encourage him to do what makes him comfortable, and he promises to work hard to not let them down. he has one of (if not, the) strongest bond with his fans, and their interactions are super wholesome.
buratsuta is like jyp. hope this makes sense <3
Tumblr media
check out this sick edit of bllk produce btw

Lots of love for the Tweels today (possibly related to our latest drawing of them and Idia)! And some other asks :3
Anonymous asked:
why is wallace old there? < never watched scott pilgrim
We get to see his older version in one episode of the anime, and I just couldn’t ignore it. I had to draw him 😭
Anonymous asked:
have u every watched bungo stray dogs... i think u might like it
We watched like 2 seasons I think? It was ages ago, so I don’t remember anything. But we did like Akutagawa; we even have some old and ugly Akutagawa sketches somewhere in this blog…
Anonymous asked:
rip idia 😔
Yeah, that poor thing…
Anonymous asked:
jade and floyd give me extreme cuteness aggression 😭😭😭
I’m glad to hear that hehehe <3 Jade and Floyd themselves are such massive cuteness aggressors so they would relate lol
Anonymous asked:
NEED to inject mafioso fish into my bloodstream
Who doesn’t… a lot of people, probably, that sounds dangerous!
Anonymous asked:
you characterize (the tweels) a lot more sadistic than other people do (i like it!!!!)... im curious how you think they'd react to being petted on :)
Thank you so much! Yeah, we always loved giving characters a bit of a darker twist to their personalities, but honestly with the Tweels it’s way too natural and pretty much canon in a lot of ways lol We really really love this about them. When it comes to cruel, unfair, messed up and freaky scenarios, they’re the perfect fit. I’m glad you like it!
To answer your question, well these two are unpredictable, but in general I feel like they don’t like being touched. Or rather, they would prefer to be the ones who’s petting, because they’re annoying like that lol But who knows, sometimes they might even demand petting.
(did I understand your question right? If not, I apologise)
kitsunegdx asked:
Hi hello hi this may sound like a dumb question but what is the story behind the Friday the 13th image of Azul n Idia :3? I am obsessed with the composition and was curious if there was a story
Hi! <3 It’s not dumb at all.
I explained it in this reply! Long story short, there isn’t much of a story, but…
furubatsu asked:
In between sending that ask about the Trey Vignette and you answering, I managed to go back and find it. I play the US version of the game so IDK if it's different in the Japanese version. It's the R School Unifrom Vignette "Open your mouths".
It starts with Ace and Deuce (I can't believe Ace was part of this and I didn't remember. RIP I him guess) brushing their teeth before lights out, Ace is done but Deuce reminds him of some insane rule like "You gotta brush twice on tuesdays" or something and Ace laughs it off, not like Riddle will know except Trey is there and tells them he won't tell Riddle if they do it right and does the mouth inspection. Deuce just gives a confued "Um??" while Ace calls him out like "That is NOT in the rulebook", it causes Trey to realise he's letting his Weirdness(tm) show and he explains that his siblings are young enough that playfully making sure they brushed properly is normal and he just kinda did it on instinct. Though Trey does offer to "help" the boys brush their teeth after that, it then ends with Trey "accidentally" doing another oral inspection on the boys and this time the noises/reactions they have doe imply he did something to their mouths ("Awough?!" reads more like the noise of something being put in your moth than a simple "Um" at least) so....
Thanks for the recap and for bringing this whole thing up! We watched the vignette, and oh god…
The more I look at Trey, the more “a psycho pervert who learned how to pretend to be a normal human being” sounds like something that could describe him lol Some people (like Ace or Vil) keep sensing that there is something sus about him, some people (like Rook or Idia) know for the fact that there is something wrong about him, and some people just think that he is a swell fellow that’s always very supportive and caring and wouldn’t do anything weird (like Deuce and Riddle) and I absolutely love it lol
The fact that Trey just kept going “oops sorry it’s a habit”, like is this that much of an automatic thing to you??
Mister Clover, don’t put your fingers in their mouths… alright, you can keep it in Deuce’s.
