I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rottmnt headcanons #rise leo #His aptitude with subterfuge sleight of hand stealth and speed really push how being a ninja really comes naturally to him. #it’s arguable that his desperation for the spotlight and validation is an act of subterfuge against himself #note that when he’s offered a job as a mascot he’s fine being unknown #when he and splinter win the battle nexus Leo immediately says ‘they love YOU pops’ #idk I think so much about how good a ninja Leo is #and how much his persona is more an actor #Leo as a tot is shown a natural skill at katana too so hear me out- #every Leo is a natural ninja but every Leo’s route in life is directly tied to their splinter so #since rise splinter is an actor Leo too aims for it #and he brings it into his whole life - masking always because a Leo makes what they do who they are #I think that Leo naturally falls more in line with that of a typical ninja #his eccentric performer self is his subterfuge skill just set to an 11 at all times #not that that’s NOT him - like I said it’s still undoubtedly a part of Leo #but? idk I think about little moments like Leo being the only one to choose stealth in bug busters #or Leo being the only one to almost get Gus’s dog tags in The Ninja Art of Hide and Seek (he was so close but luck was against him alas) #like- he’s clearly in his element there and he falls into those skills so easily #it’s like how everyone has skills in so many things but some exceed more in some than others do #like Raph? Raph’s the biggest Hero of the bunch of them let’s be perfectly real here. Raph is THE Hero #All the boys are smart in their own rights but Donnie is THE Genius. #and they all have mystic powers but Mikey is THE Mystic Warrior with immense untapped potential #likewise Leo I feel is THE Ninja #but yeah I love how much Leo goes for the spotlight anyway for better or for worse #he IS a performer again make no mistake! but again the way he does it still lines up with his natural ninja aptitude and I love it #Leo loving magic tricks and magicians so much works doubly well here because like #you’d think he’s focused solely on the performance flair - no it’s ALSO and ESPECIALLY the DECEPTION

If Milo Murphy's Law was live action and/or was aimed at just a slightly older audience (maybe like MCs not being school age or smth), Dakavendish would be among THE most popular tumblr ships. Up there with ineffable husbands and blackbonnets (or whatever they're called) and the rest of them idk. Like obviously it would be a very different show but the potential Dakavendish has is HUGE if MML was something within average tumblr user's interests.

#me & my friend started discussing dream cast for Dakavendish #cavendish is 1000% peter capaldi #we haven't decided on dakota but pedro pascal has a potential #but also we don't know many actors #milo murphy's law #mml #dwampyverse #dakavendish

i love the fact that aylin and the dark urge have such distinctive speech patterns that are, most often, terribly out of place and/or ornate and still there were some ppl who went i can't NOT fuck them

#.bg3 #bg3 #the dark urge #dame aylin #durgetash #last one is for meeeeee #tho potentially any companion u romance falls into it #isobel is frankly such a trooper as well like saluting her for putting her feet down and snogging that shakespearean lesbian actor

❝ 𝑤𝑒𝑙𝑙, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘮𝘦 . . . 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮 . . . [ dr. sawyer ]

[ spoilers for ch. 3 ! ]

DogDay's   voice   actor   is   shared   with   that   of   Dr.   Sawyer,   the   doctor   responsible   for   the   Bigger   Bodies   Project.   And   while   I   was   shocked   to   find   out   that   they   were   the   same   and   not   shared   with   Rich   from   another   tape   in   Chapter   3,   I   must   say   I   do   enjoy   the   idea   of   it   if   not   only   for   the   angst   !

DogDay   notes   how   their   voices   sound   similar   if   he   hears   the   VHS,   but   only   to   himself   and   it   feels   like   a   slug   to   the   gut.   He   struggles   a   lot   with   the   questions   he   has   for   himself   after   that   --   if   this   is   what   he   always   was,   or   if   he   was   that   man   --   that   monster   --   who   did   all   of   these   terrible,   cruel   things   to   people.   Only   to   be   fed   to   the   very   machine   he   made.

Needless   to   say,   it   messes   with   his   head   a   bit.   DogDay   has   no   memory   or   remaining   pieces   of   Dr.   Sawyers   life   if   he   was   him   . . .   but   does   that   mean   anything   when   no   one   else   can   seem   to   remember   either?   And   if   he   was   him,   does   that   mean   he   deserved   all   he   suffered?   Perhaps   he   was   never   even   good   at   all,   just   a   broken   toy   masquerading   as   a   good   dog.

The   internal   conflict   is   a   bit   inspired   by   Nick   Valentine,   and   that   goodness   he   wants   to   do   is   something   he   calls   his.   No   matter   who's   mind   and   matter   is   in   his   stitched   up   body,   that   good   he   did   is   something   that   cannot   be   taken   away   from   him   and   he   finds   solace   in   that.

In   the   end,   as   it   stands   at   least,   there's   true   explanation.   No   outright   confirmation   of   it,   and   therefore   all   he   can   do   is   wonder.   Wonder   if   these   thoughts   are   his   or   not.   Strung   between   the   extremes   of   a   mad   scientists   brain   and   a   company   that   doesn't   care,   he   grapples   with   what   it   means   to   be   anything   at   all.

But   if   he   had   to   choose,   he   would   like   to   be   kind.

Dr.   Sawyer   always   remains   as   a   shadow   in   his   mind   though   --   not   as   a   real   entity   or   even   a   spirit,   but   as   someone   --   something   ---   he's   haunted   by.   A collection of best guess ideas of who he may have been. Something   he   can't   quite   escape   and   can't   quite   put   to   rest,   always   wondering   if   some   cruelty   he   did   unintentionally   is   some   subconscious   version   of   him   unrelenting   and   persisting   after   the   transformation.

He   will   never   know   what   Doctor   Sawyer   looks   like,   but   flickering   images   of   what   he   could   have   looked   like   stay   stuck   in   his   mind.   So   too   does   that   voice,   the   voice   that   never   fit   the   cardboard   cutouts   and   promo   material,   the   voice   he   speaks   with.

The   voice   that   played   on   that   VHS   tape.

Personally,   I'd   like   to   leave   it   more   as   a   what-if   possibility   on   this   blog   as   I   feel   its   more   impactful   if   he   can   never   know.   Having   to   make   peace   with   not   knowing   and   carrying   on   anyways,   growing   beyond   the   shadow   of   that   past   --   of   who   and   what   he   endured   before.

With   choosing   everyday   to   wake   up   and   define   himself,   to   define   what   it   means   to   be   DogDay   through   his   actions.   Regardless   of   the   rest   of   it.

Because   sometimes   it's   not   about   knowing   everything,   sometimes   it's   about   making   your   peace   and   letting   it   go   and   moving   beyond   it   --   growing   beyond   it.

#honestly was surprised to see they shared the same voice actor but I am a simple mutt. #I see potential for angst and I grab #˗ˋ ☀️ . . . ⌜headcanons.⌟ ❛ 𝙳𝙾𝙲𝚃𝙾𝚁'𝚂 𝙻𝙾𝙶 ﹟ ﹖﹖﹖ ❜ ˎ˗

Round of applause for Fort Thitipong

This might be my last LITA Post (I want to CRY) but I wanted to take the time to point out how GREAT of an actor Fort Thitipong is.

With how versatile Fort was he rarely took me out of a scene or had a facial expression that did not match the situation. There’s always room for improvement, but for his first series as a main lead, I HAVE to give it to him.

So here are 5 of my favorite acting moments for Fort in no particular order

1. Angry Prapai when Sky worries him

No but look at his face, this man was ANGRY, FLABBERGASTED, HURT, and so much more. You can tell he wanted to CUSS Sky OUT but also wanted to properly address sky’s actions. It was this scene that confirmed to me that Fort was definitely going to EAT his role up!!

2. Prapai beating the shit out of Gun

I already made a post on it, but FORT’S PUNCHES WERE REALISTIC! It’s rare that we see punches in media that look like savage beatings which are what some fights look like in reality. This mainly happens when someone falls down. As people who commented on my post said, he was using “hammer fists” to just repeatedly pummel Gun, no regular ass person squares up like Mike Tyson😭. Thank you Fort and the director for not trying to give us professional MMA Fighter moves LMFAOO.

3. Emotional Prapai when Sky tries to cut him off

Still can’t believe Sky really tried that😭. But when fort/prapai said “so you pick up the phone when it’s not my number” and “do you realize what you’re saying?!” I could feel his emotions. He was so hurt and the way he gripped the phone to calm himself down….Fort delivered

4. Bathtub special episode Prapai

Had a hard time choosing between this scene and the seaside almost proposal (?) cuz both were so captivating. I don’t know if it’s the mixture of Forts acting and the cinematography, but every scene he had in the special was amazing. This bathtub scene in particular because the conversation, the way he physically reacted to Sky, THE EYE CONTACT. You could tell he was intently listening to sky based on the changes in facial expression and the eye contact.

5. King of Breaking and entering

This is the scene that had the girls SOBBING, and by the girls…I mean me💀There were so many emotions Fort conveyed while he was reading that diary, I was on the EDGE of my seat. Definitely in the top 5 moments in the entire show.

Often times we focus on Forts golden retriever like expressions, but we should also appreciate him for being able to portray different feelings with his eyes. That’s something some of my favorite BL actors have in common, they act with their eyes (which is definitely not an easy task). These are of course not all of Forts best moments but if I kept going it would be too long.

Gonna miss him and LITA

#a pretty boy who can act but doesn’t rely on his looks to get by? #SIGN ME UP #but on a real note I’m so happy this series introduced me to fort #I love finding or seeing actors with potential #I love actors with range #looking forward to his next projects #lita #prapaisky #love in the air #thai bl #prapai x sky #fort thitipong #love in the air series #lita special ep #lita ep 13 #lita episode 12 #prapai lita #prapai #prapai love in the air #sky x prapai #skyprapai #love in the air the series #fortpeat #lita the series #lita cast #bl series #asian bl series #peat wasuthorn #fort thitipong sengngai

ROTTMNT Theory: Leonardo's Face

(I know this topic had been talked about in other posts before. I had a mighty need to add my 2 cents, along with some pictures.)

We know Leo's gonna grow to be an amazing leader. He's already learning how to work in groups and communicate with his team, and he's even beginning to reel back his prideful behavior.

However, to live by the important life lesson of "we do we", I get the feeling he's not gonna do it the same way as past TMNT iterations. Future Leo in the ROTTMNT movie is proof enough that his humorous quips are here to stay, even after decades of apocalyptic horrors.

Because Leo's right, he IS the face man. He just hasn't realized yet how crucial the face of a team is, or how great of a weapon it can be.

(Show and movie spoilers under the cut.)

Firstly, the face is an important tool for navigating the world around you. It's where three (four counting the ears) of the body's senses are placed. Sure, you can technically live and roam through touch alone, but then you risk missing a lot of information about your surroundings that could impact your life.

Metaphorically speaking, Leo provides this for his team the most often. He uses his highly attuned senses to scan their environment for immediate details. This allows him to adjust their plans to even the slightest changes, or to make quicker deductions based on whatever clues he finds.

Another thing about faces is how prominently they're used for communication. They are one of the most critical tools for social interactions of all kinds, including deception. Mastery of facial gestures is what lets so many actors/actresses thrive when putting on believable performances.

Continuing the metaphor, Leo has proven himself to be a master of persuasion so many times throughout the Rise series. His easygoing charm can make him both motivating for loved ones and easy to underestimate for opponents.

Once Leo's self confidence improves some more, his social intelligence gives him the potential to become terrifyingly powerful. The ability to outwit geniuses by thinking outside the box. Negotiation skills that could put the average politician to shame. Eyes as sharp as his katanas, ones that could read people like comic books. An equally sharp tongue able to flip entire situations in his team's favor through words alone.

Next to hope, Leo's face truly is his most dangerous weapon. He just needs to learn how to not let it control him. I'd love to see Leo further develop this more charismatic style of leadership that tends to set him apart from his past series' counterparts.

#Leonardo #rottmnt #rottmnt movie spoilers #rise leo #analysis #You could also say Leo is both the face AND the voice of his team #I feel like Leo being a phenomenal actor is a key reason why Splinter chose him to be the new leader #Being a former actor himself #Splinter knows how powerful words and appearances can be in leading (or misleading) others #Splinter finally saw part of himself in Leo and decided that kind of potential shouldn't go neglected again #Leo asked why nobody had any faith in him #so Splinter took a chance to put some faith in him #I ended up titling this one a 'theory' too because it felt weird to have it labeled differently from my last rottmnt post #Sorry for the small text in some pics. I wanted to cram as many screenshots as I could since I'm a sucker for photographic evidence.

For those not in the know The Daily Mirror reported that Millie Gibson has been "dropped" from Doctor Who after previous outlets referred to her as a "diva" for allegedly disliking night shoots. Both these outlets are known as scummy rags but I really hope we aren't getting a repeat of Christopher Eccleston having his name tarnished because his early exit was leaked. Luckily, Ncuti has already come out in support of Millie but now all (my) eyes will be on rtd to make sure she gets the best support possible if the rumours of her exit are indeed true.

#and that's what you missed on glee #basically my point is everyone support millie cos she probably has quit and the way the bbc aren't making supportive statements #after basically allowing the diva stuff to go unchecked I'm like yeah don't repeat eccleston pls don't repeat eccleston #dw #doctor who #dw spoilers #cos millie leaving is potentially a spoiler #millie gibson #ncuti gatwa #rtd #christopher eccleston #also the unprofessional behaviour would have to be tantamount to shit chris experienced or barrowman and clarke #I'm raising an eyebrow that with the night shoot info etc thay they may be working another actor too hard and then blaming them #for being pissed #ive seen this film before (with christopher eccleston) and i didnt like the ending etc

Sephiroth is making my brain FIZZ this is so fun.

First of all, his voice actor in advent children???

The new remake one is excellent but just doesn't capture that same level of terrifying cultured menace. The smug evenness and it's DEEP wow yeah. So smooth. High key petrifying I don't know who he is but he did an outstanding job. That bit where he asks cloud to 'give him the pleasure of taking it away?' like the way his voice lilted up in casual question like good GRIEF that was hot.

Anyway I have another hc: sephiroth would have made an EXCELLENT scientist like his parents, he's certainly got the intellect and hunger for knowledge, not to mention his ability to do research for days on end XD. Supernova actually using astrophysics equations is absolutely fantastic and makes me think that's what he'd major in.

By that logic, he'd want to be in rocket town with the rocket, and he'd most definitely want to go to space himself if it was the last thing he did (ha).

Do you think he'd tie his hair back like his mum?

Anyway I imagine if he hadn't been a soldier and instead been free to choose his own path he'd have been right there the whole time being a child genius and getting into fights with cid about who gets to be the pilot (Co pilots. Co pilots is how it's supposed to work with normal planes never mind things that breach the atmosphere).

Like I understand the amount of redemption/fix it fics that have him be a merc with cloud or whatever but I feel we're ignoring the possibilities stemming from the fact this man canonically knows modern astrophysics and that is absolutely not something you can inherit via way of ancient inhuman semi deceased life form.

#Astrophysicist sephiroth please and thank you #With that AC voice he could recite his equations and I'd thank him #also qq what's with that one audio with sephiroth saying 'good girl' because he doesn't curse so I feel thats either from a different proje #With the same voice actor or like ai or smth. #Yeah so I feel like we're sleeping on the potential bizarre nature of cid and sephiroth being work buddies/rivals #Sephiroth is the one who handles the early stages theories and course plotting #Cid gets out his welder and makes the actual schematics or smth #If it was like an au any visitors would like wtf and cid/seph would be so confused like??? Decade old friends and trusted co pilots banter #And a redemption post canon would be so much tension and weirdness #Sephiroth would be the type to call his project partner at like 3am regardless of the time because he's had an idea. #The only way it'd work is through his determination to Do Physics and everyone else's desperation to keep him away from sharp objects XD #sephiroth #ff7 #final fantasy vii #ffvii #ff7 sephiroth #ffvii sephiroth
