If you were a fish, what kind of fish would you be and how would you want your aquarium decorated?
I don’t think sharks are fish, bc live birth, but a shark of some kind!
I have been told that I’m intimidating irl despite the fact that I am, in fact, Just A Little Guy. Well, idk if 5’7 is little. So more of an Average Guy lol
And I’m not a huge fan of aquariums, zoos, or sea world😒🖕🏻 even those places in Mexico and the gulf where you can swim with dolphins, that’s so cruel. I would wanna be free in the ocean, so yeah. No aquariums. Just open, endless terrifying ocean!
Fun fact: Eilidh LOVES swimming and diving but has a fear of the open ocean🥴 but once I’m down there I’m🤩 look at it allll!!! So cool, and so utterly fucking terrifying that if I don’t recover my respirator I just ☠️ Beautiful 🥰

tgcf book spoilers, but one mu qing and xie lian snippet that I think about a lot is this one, at the start of xie lian’s second banishment when he’s surprised to hear mu qing being described as generous and kind:
as opposed to this memory from before his first ascension when mu qing started giving out cherries to the kids in the city:
I think it just really goes to show 1) how deeply mq’s actions truly affected xl and what he thought of him, but also 2) just how different mq and xl are fundamentally in the way that they think and approach things.
I don’t have a lot of commentary on xl that hasn’t already been said, but bc we get the story from xl’s pov, we see a lot of mq’s actions being framed as selfish or suspicious (which is fair, bc again, we know how much his actions hurt xl), but we also see a lot of misconstrued kindness, like in book 8 where it’s revealed that he knocked out fx in order to save him. it’s also pretty obvious how much mq still cares abt xl, with how quickly he volunteers as fu yao and the lengths he goes to protect him when he deems hc a threat, so I also think it’s very likely that mq leaving the trio first was exactly what he said it was — that he thought becoming a junior official, ascending quickly, would be the best way to take care of not just his mother, but also xl, fx, the king and queen, and himself, and so in a way, him leaving was him acting on his kindness. but ofc it doesn’t work out, and he spends the next 800 years fighting w/ fx about it, defending himself, his decisions, and his kindness, and nitpicking the accuracies of his statues while he himself remains completely misunderstood by the two people he probably cares abt the most.
and idk, I guess I just think that’s probably a really lonely way to spend 800 years.

There’s some people on Twitter saying that if Eddie were to have a queer storyline he’d necessarily have to come out as bisexual because otherwise it would be like – and I quote – shitting on Shannon and Chris, and I just wanted to come in here to say that that makes absolutely no fucking sense. I don’t think anyone here has ever doubted the love Eddie has for Shannon, even after her passing. Particularly after 7x05, with the context of the now canon catholic guilt, Eddie being gay (not that I think he’d label himself anyway) would complete a puzzle for him. This man was brought up in a catholic home, with catholic teachings, and I can tell you from experience that most of those schools intervene in every aspect of your life and not just your studies. He has said it himself that the reason he married her was because she was pregnant, which again, is a very common catholic view of life – and I’m not speaking deprecatingly – but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love her, or his son. Eddie loved Shannon, he would’ve given her life for her, and I also know he never used her as a beard, nor has he done that with Ana or Marisol. He’s never used any of the women in his life, and in fact, he actually broke up with Ana the second he realized his heart wasn’t in it. Eddie Diaz is a good man who’s had to unconsciously and subconsciously hide parts of himself, and even though all we can do is speculate about his sexuality, his coming out as gay would not destroy his family, it would actually only strengthen it, considering he’d be more comfortable being who he is, regardless of who he’s with.

Hey! i’m really into the dbch story and i was wondering if doc and xisuma ever tell bdubs the specifics of why etho lost his memories, cause if they do that is prime self blaming angst for bdubs
I’m inclined to believe they don’t. Actually (and maybe I should do a small comic for this so more people see it) I imagine, once a month or a few pass and they finally return etho to bdubs as reset, I imagine they are VERY serious about warning bdubs not to try to force Etho to re-deviate— they don’t go into specifics, but they probably tell bdubs that whatever happened had to do with something that was emotionally overwhelming, and that forcing him to redeviate/not letting it happen naturally could trigger the same error. They have no idea what could happen so bdubs needs to be very careful and let Etho find himself again on his own.
Whether or not bdubs gets impatient or can only go so long before he doubts it would be that bad if he tried pushing Etho in the right direction is another story.
But yeah. I don’t think Xisuma or Doc really… tell anyone that this happened. Etho’s error seemed like a very specific one-off scenario, so it’s not something the other hermits should be trying to avoid or be careful about happening to their own android friends, and the only thing telling people would do is make them worried about the situation. All they need to know is that etho was broken and that they need to be careful with him. I don’t agree with their decision to keep what happened to themselves but I understand it I think. Xisuma “i don’t want to worry the hermits” Void and Docm “eh this isn’t the first time I’ve replaced this arm, people won’t question it” 77

Why 2024 will be the year of Tiva:
In 11x01, Tony tells Ziva to “count to a million.” Now, of course we assume that he meant ‘count for one million seconds and I’ll be with you.’
But what if the ✨ universe ✨ was telling us that to count to a million, and that it would be an essential number for their love story?
1,000,000 minutes = 694 days
6 + 9 + 4 = 19
Which is the number of years since Tiva first met.
(Season 3 aired in 2005, and 2024-2005 = 19)
This year is also the shows 21st season.
2 + 1 = 3
You know what also makes 3? 1 + 1 + 0 + 1
And when did they first meet?! 👀 3x01!!!
But there’s more!
1,000,000 hours = 41666 days.
11 years = 4017.75 days.
If you remove the decimal point from the bottom number and subtract the top one from it, you get this:
401775 - 41666 = 360109
If we then add the individual digits of the answer together, we again, get the number 19!!!
3 + 6 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 9 = 19
Now, 11 is Tiva’s number.
Ziva left in season 11.
“Past, Present and Future” is the 236th episode overall.
2 + 3 + 6 = 11
And she left again in episode 11 of season 17.
“Jet Lag” (the first time Tiva are in Paris together, and is also an iconic Tiva ep) is episode 7x13
7 + 1 + 3 = 11
Tony is born in 1971. Ziva is born in 1982. There is an 11 year age gap between them. But also, if we add up the individual digits of their birth years, and then add both of those together:
1 + 9 + 7 + 1 = 18
1 + 9 + 8 + 2 = 20
20 + 18 = 38
And of course:
8 + 3 = 11
Which is also the number of years it’s been since we’ve seen Tony and Ziva on screen together.
2013 + 11 years = 2024.
And you know what also equals (20)24?
The equivalent of 11 years.
4 + 0 + 1 + 7 + 7 + 5 = 24
Now, if we go back to the beginning:
1,000,000 hours = 41666 days.
4 + 1 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 23
If we add 24 and 23 we get = 47.
“Kill Ari (Part 1)” is the 47th episode of NCIS, and the episode in which they first meet.
Add those two individual digits together and we get
4 + 7 = 11, which is Tiva’s number.
The episode also aired on 09/20. 9 + 2 = 11
Even further, if we add the digits of 2024, we get 8.
2 + 0 + 2 + 4 = 8
“Truth or Consequences” (which is possibly the most iconic Tiva episode where we all knew they loved each other) is 7x01.
7 + 1 = 8
Which also happens to be the number of years they were at NCIS together.
This episode also aired in 2009.
2 + 0 + 0 + 9 = 11
“Under Covers” is also episode 8 of season 3, which is where they first kiss each other (albeit undercover as Sophie and Jean-Paul).
8 + 3 = 11.
I’m just saying… the universe works in mysterious ways. ✨
UPDATE: I have not recovered from the announcement. I’m not sure I’ll ever recover. Of course, I wrote this post as a joke, because I thought there was absolutley no way it was going to happen. And what’s a bit of harmless clowning fun in the grand scheme of things?
Someone did make a comment though, saying that I give CBS too much credit. In fact, I give them zero credit in this. This is nothing to do with CBS.
This is all to do with Michael and Cote and them being the awesome Captains of the Tiva ship that they are. They are the ones responsible for this, not CBS.
CBS wouldn’t even dare entertain the possibility. I mean… they couldn’t even entertain the possibility while the two of them were on screen for 8 years, let alone anything else. The idea of having a whole spin off show dedicated to their most popular ship on their OG show? That would be utterly absurd!
But, I am perhaps the most excited I have ever been to see my babies back on screen together again, and to give us all the Tiva content we deserve. I might not trust writers because of all that we’ve been through, but I trust them. I trust Cote and Michael. They know what we want, and I have 100% faith that they’re going to deliver.
