Random Idea junk drawer

Hi, I’m back with more fusion nonsense. We’ve done Phantom of the Opera and Ocarina of Time, and now I’m back with more Zelda bullshit because what’s better than one special interest/hyperfixation? Two! I’ve had this one in mind for a year though, ever since I wrote the epilogue for Main Objective : Destroy Yiling Laozu, so I feel like it’s time I finally put something down on this one (It’s Twilight Princess, my beloved). Again, I’m just going to post all of this exactly as I wrote it, so it’s rambling and probably doesn’t make too much sense but it’s something that apparently needs to exist right now to help me procrastinate the things I genuinely want to be writing. *Cue the longest sigh known to man*

Everything I have so far about this Twilight Princess AU under the readmore ♥

Main Cast:

Lan Wangji as Link - the strong and silent hero. He was brought to Ordon/Caiyi Village as a baby by Madam Lan, who died of a wasting illness soon after delivering her charge into safe hands. No one knows that she was the queen of Hyrule, fleeing with her younger son out of desperation and grief that she could only take one, leaving her eldest alone in the castle.

Wei Wuxian as Midna - The Prince of the Twili, cursed to roam as an imp by Xue Yang, the usurper of his throne in the Twilight Realm. He doesn't care much at all for the world of Light that spurns his people and imprisons them in their world of shadow and decay, and so he decides to use Lan Wangji's strength and willingness to help anyone and everyone to his own ends and regain his throne, no matter the cost.

Lan Xichen as Zelda - The beloved Prince of Hyrule, imprisoned in Hyrule Castle and left alone to watch over his kingdom as everyone else wastes away into spirits in front of his eyes. He recognizes Wei Wuxian as his counterpart in the Twilight Realm by the familiar wash of his magic, and his brother by the golden eyes only seen in the Royal bloodline, though his own don't burn as brightly as his brother's. He keeps this knowledge of Lan Wangji's identity a secret for now, unwilling to burden his brother further when he's already been tasked with restoring Light to the world.

Xue Yang as Zant - Jumped up on stolen power/glory from his unseen benefactor, Xue Yang claims to have an advanced form of Wei Wuxian’s tribe’s magic and uses it to force Wei Wuxian from his throne and curse him to be an imp to keep him from retaliating. He’s an easily discarded tool once he’s no longer useful.

Wen Ruohan as Ganondorf - The looming specter of evil behind everything, using Xue Yang as his puppet in the world of Light and Twilight both to get all the power he wants. He sells himself to Xue Yang as a god and earns his devotion and following in exchange for power, but when Lan Wangji kills Xue Yang he reveals himself for who he really is and steps out of the shadows for the final confrontation.

Ensemble as human Caiyi/Dafan (Ordon/Kakariko) Villagers:

The Juniors (minus Sizhui) aged down to be the kids. Zizhen is the oldest, the head of Lan Wangji's unofficial fan club in the village and too busy writing love songs and poetry and the like to want to bother with weapons. Jingyi as Talo, brash and confident and a big fan of practicing with his wooden sword, especially if Lan Wangji is around to show him a few moves. A-Ling as Malo, tiny and sour-faced, angry at everything all the time (but weirdly good with money for a toddler??).

Mianmian as Ilia. She's pretty and sweet and a natural choice for Lan Wangji's love interest if they were to stay in Caiyi Village/Ordon their whole lives, but as their adventures take them in different directions they simply grow closer as friends. Especially once Mianmian's memory is restored and she can see how much Lan Wangji is growing as a hero without her. She settles down in Kakariko Village/Dafan Mountain and happily assists her new friends there.

Sizhui (aged up a bit) as Renado. He's grown up in Kakariko Village/Dafan and has become quite accomplished in medicine for both humans and Gorons. He's descended from the people who became the Twili under Wei Wuxian, and though he isn't aware of it that bridge between the two worlds is part of what strengthens him and gives him such a long life and uncanny healing capabilities.

I so badly wish there was someone who could easily be Telma. TITTIES OUT NMJ A LA TBGKARU-WOH'S CQL CHARACTER REDESIGNS!! (except for the part where I always make the Nies the Gorons :( ) But like. Hello hello, I'm suddenly dying for tits out/black gloves/fur coat NMJ as the owner of the bar in Castle Town that plays host to the very small group of people/leaders trying to change things in the world for the better. Who flirts nonstop with anyone who walks into his bar. And like if we're going with canon ships for both media with no accounting for the rest of the plot then like. Lan Xichen as Renado instead, the gentle, lonely man with a healing touch and endless reserves of kindness, holding down the fort in his village (maybe raising his young nephew Sizhui, since Renado has a daughter?) who ends up meeting Nie Mingjue later on when he arrives with the injured Zora prince and they're both like O.O oh hello~~

Okay I'm getting off track. On to the non-human races.

Jiangs as Zoras:

Jiang Yanli - Queen Rutela, killed before the story begins. Her spirit guides LWJ to protect her brother, Jiang Cheng, who's been gravely injured on his way to Hyrule Castle.

Jiang Cheng - Prince Ralis. Over the course of the story, Jiang Cheng will heal from his injuries, grieve the loss of his sister, and return home to lead his people in her place.

Nies as Gorons:

Nie Mingjue as the temporary leader of the gorons while his father is locked up inside the mines due to his constant and dangerous rampaging.

Nie Huaisang as an extremely lazy goron who just hangs out down in the hot spring all day in the city below the peak of the mountain, but who for some reason knows everything about everyone and can tell Lan Wangji exactly where to go next at any given time. When Lan Wangji frees Lao Nie, Nie Huaisang moves down into Kakariko Village to run the hot spring down there on top of the inn and be the liaison between Gorons and humans.

Hmmmm that's really it for the non-human Hylian races in this game. The only other one is the Oocca, really, and uhhhhh no 😂 Maybe we'll make Jin Zixuan or Jin Guangyao be Telma. We'll say the Jins were a noble family that used to serve the royal court but fell out of favor with the righteous Lans because of Jin Guangshan's behavior, so now the Jins (&co) occupy various roles in Castle Town:

Su She runs the STAR competition and fucking hates losing to Lan Wangji over and over again, so he makes it harder every time.

Mo Xuanyu as Agitha, weird little dude in frilly clothes and over-the-top makeup in his lolita-esque house collecting something weird (like the golden bugs, but maybe not bugs? Idk I'm not thinking too deeply about the actual game elements here).

Jin Guangyao as Telma, the beautiful and slightly uncomfortable bar owner who's really good at shady deals and knowing everything about everyone in Castle Town, but uses it for the good of the Kingdom because what's Jin Guangshan gonna do about it? He's:

The guy stuck as a golden statue in his house because he got greedy. Enough said. No one’s in a hurry to free him.

Jin Zixuan as ? I don't think I'm missing anybody major in Castle Town except for the fortune teller, but it doesn't really feel right for him. Open to suggestions! Maybe the snooty guy who runs the super expensive shop in the main courtyard that eventually becomes a new Malo Mart if you do the sidequest for it? That would be funny as hell lol.

Back to nonhumans:

Dafan Wen as the Twili:

There aren't really any specific roles within the Twili except for Midna and Zant, already filled by Wei Wuxian and Xue Yang. But we'll say that in some Previous Time, Wei Wuxian was banished to the Twilight Realm with the branch of Wens he was protecting, which was something of a mixed blessing. They were all changed for good, subjected to a world of dying light and their Light forms gone forever, but also - they can't die. They're eternal there in their limbo between worlds, existing gently and quietly, resting but not dead, alive but not. Ghosts but not. Wei Wuxian is extremely protective of them and does everything he can to make sure their existence on the fringes of life is peaceful, which is why it's extra offensive that Xue Yang swept in with stolen magic and ripped it all away from him and is using his beloved people as twisted, monstrous weapons in the world of Light.

Oh also bonus: In Arbiter’s Grounds, the ghost sages would be the Sages from my Ocarina of Time AU! Not that they have a very big role or anything, and not that their personalities from OOT really have any effect on their dialogue in game, but that’s one of my favorite easter eggs in Twilight Princess.

Bonus bonus: The other easter egg that I like being that the dead knight who teaches you special sword moves is supposed to be Link from OOT sticking around as a ghost to teach his reincarnated self, so it would either be an old version of Wei Wuxian teaching the new Lan Wangji, or else I swap it and make it the previous Sheik/Zelda teaching the new hero, their roles swapping around in each reincarnation to suit the needs of the time but one of them is always the hero and one of them is always royalty of some sort.

Okay now I’m actually done byyyyeeee

#the untamed fanfic #wangxian #random idea junk drawer #so called because all these ideas rattle around in my head like pens and shit in a junk drawer #not because i think my ideas are junk #Twilight Princess AU #No title yet for this one either but it feels good to finally get it out of my head a bit #It could use a bit more thought I think but the cast of TP is so unique in that it's actually sort of like...isolated?#Like there's a huge ensemble but they all have such fleeting roles in Link's life #Like the fuckin. The siblings all spread out across Hyrule - your man selling oil in Ordon #The girl who runs the river rapids ride #and the girl who runs the fishing shack. And if you don't pay attention to their dialogue/the photos in the fishing shack/the credits #you'd never know they were siblings #but they all play such tiiiiny parts in the story it wouldn't feel right to give their roles to the juniors or somethign #*something #anyway I digress #I could ramble on about this for an embarrassingly long time but I'll stop there for now

Great things

TP!Link x reader but of @acrossthegalaxyau’s Beast. A lot of this isn’t proof read because my god it’s a long one.

Tw: depictions of gore.

The hand that held his sword was tired. In both a very literal and metaphorical sense. Long ago, he had begged his father to let him hold a blade, to learn to fight. To protect that which was precious to him. Now, with all he longed to protect kept at a healthy arm's length, he wondered when his hands had gotten so tired. When had his wrist become so sore from the burden it held?

To him, his burn out, his loss of drive within the world was an infection of sorts. The title of Hero was a burden that in many ways he wished he wasn’t bestowed. Well most certainly an honour, seeing that which he loved, which he fought so hard to protect, be harmed and disregarded was not a motivation. The responsibility wore at his bones until they cracked and ate at his energy until he passed out, only to be shoved back into him the second he awoke. The title of hero outweighed his own name. No longer was he Link of Ordon, But Link the Hero of Hyrule. He was no more than his deeds. Then the safety he was tasked with bringing to their feet, begging like a dog for any award. In some sense, he was awarded. With titles and land and money and publicity— but none of it mattered. To a hero, perhaps these things were valued. But to Link if Ordon, such prizes were worthless. They were gifts of obligation, not of any true thankfulness or appreciation. And so, he viewed his task as obligation, and their gifts without any thanks or appreciation.

He stood now, a group of lizalfoe in front of him, without much a feeling of fear. Not in such a sense of bravery or courage, but simply the absence of feeling. His sword sunk into flesh with no discernible difference between the monsters. Corpses were Corpses. In the eyes of fate and history, enemy was enemy. There was no concern for where they came from or what lives they might’ve led if he hadn’t come into their lives. It was his obligation to kill. To lay waste the creatures of evil. Four were downed, one last left standing among the bodies of its allies.

Clouds parted from the gibbous moon, letting its silver light steam down. Once upon his past, he would’ve spent such a night by fireside, you cuddled up against his side as some idle story filled your minds. Further back than those memories, you both would’ve snuck out to run along the river. Younger then, the two of you would’ve curled up in some quiet field after dinner and fallen asleep. Within those memories were gifts. The peace of domesticity he could no longer afford. Love of another which he now can no longer, lest you be ripped from him too. Contentment, something he can now only find within his memory. He could read between the lines of his life and surround himself with yes men, convincing himself its love, but contentment cannot be fabricated. It is a measurement only knowable by oneself, their enjoyment of simply being alive. And it was in the cold days that followed the abstractness of his journey that he is unhappy with the idea of simply being alive anymore.

Pain struck, washing over his network of nerves, his sword sinking into the wet dirt. Gnawing fangs latching to his flesh. He was only awake then long enough to see an arrow pierce the vile thing. He was only conscious long enough to scold himself— this is what comes of closeness. Pain. Suffering. Loss.

Staring down at the mixture of splintered bones and ripped skin didn’t affect you as much as it should’ve, but goddess knows how many hours into your nights at the ward meant you couldn’t scrounge up any more energy to be panicked. Night bleeding into cold night sapped out the care and individuality of each patient down to a cot number. The whole process got methodical over time— healing people. There wasn’t much of a difference within the bodies after enough time. It didn’t matter to you whether the patient was alive or dead, biologically a man or woman, or whatever arbitrary things society dubbed someone as ‘different’. Red potions and fairies worked their magic all the same on Zora as they did with Goron, so on and so forth. A needle pierced flesh no different from a child than it did an adult or elderly. Sure, there were minor differences in anatomy and function, different needs of each individual, but they were all just people in the end. It didn’t feel different to operate on one than it did another.

But there was something you found odd in the way you felt when it came to healing Link. All things considered, he wasn’t much different from any normal hylian. A little on the lean side, sure, but nothing apparently extraordinary at a first glance. Of course, with a little more information readily accessible, you knew a few quirks. Strong as the hero was foretold to be, he was littered with scars. A few on his back from fighting, the worst from the night the village was destroyed by the wakes of twilight. A nicked lip he’d received from a scuffle with a drunk man who lunged at you. A few lining the inside of his arm, which he didn’t need to define and nor did you force him. A long slice in his forearm from when he was trenching you how to shoot a bow. A small scar on the inside of his ankle from when he fell in the river when you’d both snuck out in the dead of night, his young body unable to balance on unsteady feet. Each one you’d bandaged and stitched and monitored. Each wound of his recklessness was eased by your hand.

Well, now you supposed, it wasn’t each. Now the man in question lay hardly living and hardly dead on your makeshift operation table, it seemed there was yet more to uncover when it came to Link. You were met with a familiar hollow burn beneath your ribs, seeing the angry red gash on his left wrist. Not even that he’d gotten such a wound in the first place, but with your offer to heal the wound being met with stiff silence. It would’ve been easy. Some gauze and disinfectant. It wasn’t even deep enough to warrant stitches. It was, however, deep enough to warrant infection in its neglect. Sure, To this alone you would’ve been only slightly frustrated. But seeing the flesh falling from bone on the right half of his abdomen was enough to convince you that said negligence happened to be enough to affect his ability of wielding his blade.

The sun was rising by the time you were done. Nearly eight hours it had taken to close all his wounds. Another spent on treating his infection. Changing his bandages over for the second time that… evening? night? You decided to let yourself question the possibly most apparent difference of your Link since you’d last been aloud to treat him. There was something embedded in his chest. About a palms length from his collarbone, embedded in his sternum was… something. And from it sprang magic. It discoloured his skin to a black geometric patch with teal lines crawling over his chest. It hummed slightly, in tune with his heart, and that hollow feeling rested within you again. It was more corrosive this time, eating away at you in a way you couldn’t begin to express. It burned within whatever soft place it settled in —your heart most likely— and for the first time that night you felt something other than bitter isolation. You believed it to be jealousy in one of its many wicked forms.

The thing with dead bodies was you knew from their lack of pulse and cold skin that there was no soul to connect with. There was no one there. Those who were alive provided a sense of warmth. Physically and emotionally. Once, Link too was the same. He was warmth. Your very own sun. He’d make sure you were safe and drag you up from the depths of whatever dark hole you’d crawled into with no expectation of a return. Now, Link was more akin to the former. He regarded you with unresponsiveness. Cold in every way but literal. You gave him space when he asked for it upon his return. You don’t question when he stopped showing up to events. You tried not to take it personally when he stopped talking to you. You tried to convince yourself he hadn’t walked out of your life without a second glance. You tried— you really did. And for a while it worked. You managed to fool yourself that he didn’t mean to, or that he’d be coming back. And maybe that’s the cruellest part, that you wholeheartedly believed your own lies. But looking down on the wounds he’s collected, you can’t help but be hit with the realisation that he doesn't want you anymore. He had seen the world outside of what Ordon had to offer. Through his heroism he’s travelled the highs and lows of Hyrule, met all its variations of people and became their Hero. A person of their creations. And with it, with their creation, you weren’t dubbed a necessary piece of him anymore. You weren’t the only one that loved him anymore. So how foolish could you be to assume that he was still yours?

Your trance was broken by his eyes fluttering as the sunlight streamed in. He blinked a few times before sitting up, you didn’t have the heart to usher him into laying back down with soft mutters. His slitted pupils adjusted to the light, growing thin and sharp as they met your own. His mouth fell slightly agape seeing you framed by the sunlight, an angel sent to him, surely. Your hands felt stiff as you grabbed his neatly folded clothes and other items, setting them on his lap.

“Your- Your service total is 300 rupees. Feel free to pay at the front or discuss other financing options.” Your voice shook as your routine line spilled from your lips. Your heart shook from the gasp that came from him, his weak lungs drawing in a cold, shuttered breath.

You turned on your heels, leaving the examination room with a heart beating as swiftly as your feet in the ground. Your world would wither without the sun. Perhaps it’s already started. Link, not your Link as you’d been used to referring to him by— that implied a connection you hadn’t had in a while, would be fine. Unbothered. After all, Heroes were meant for a life greater than what Ordon had to offer, what you had to offer. He’s meant for great things, you comfort yourself with the words you once would’ve assured him with. You just never assumed ‘great things’ didn’t include you.

Spoilers for Fionna and Cake Finale Double Episode Post

-Alright, episode 9 started of with a scare! That nightmare really seemed real for a second, and Marshall looked like Shoko when she fell into the radioactive river....

Thank god it was a dream honestly, but the main even of this episode... The Lich begging for Golb to acknowledge his achievements, his success in ending all life on his reality, only to be denied of any form of gratification and to be stripped of his own reason and turned into a tetris block...

I really liked this bit, I think Fionna and Cake had the best moments of Lich alongside his speech in the Citadel episode. His expression, his posture, his rage alongside his struggle... How can a character so inherently impossible to kill, be absolutely finished by no more than a look from the one whom he called his scholar.

Also Simon kicked him that's funny,, poor Jerry

And Now, from the 1000+ years Ooo, we get to see Shermy and Beth again! They are vandalizing Gibbon's kingdom, that, in case you don't remember or don't know, he's the son of Charlie (Jake's daughter that played Card Wars)

I really like 1000+ years Ooo. In a way its cozy but at the same time uncanny cuz you really don't know anyone... (I mean Marcy and PB are canonically alive but still they only appear in the Come Along with Me Intro) I wish it was a miniseries itself!!! Simon got TP'd to Shermy's head and still is trying to find a crown. They went to the library which is now ruled by the paper guys, and a robot in a turtle shell? uh,,, okay?

And yeah basically the Scarab is back cuz Ellis P freed them,,, bruh.

-LAST EPISODE FFS PAWN SWAN IS CANON WOOO

Okay but in all seriousness, the episode continued F&C dealing with the Scarab, and they just threw him all the guys that he imprisoned, which shows us what we already had a feeling since he caught Kheirosiphon: the Scarab just caught outlaw, independently if they are good or bad, most of these guys are reformed and have started a new life... he's just so shitty... like, look at these little Big guy :')

Anyways, to get done with the F&C story, basically Prismo tp's the Peppermint tank, alongside with Jay, little Destiny and BABY FINN!! WHICH IS HUGE?! Finn is going to grow up in Fionna's universe, and if the series continues, we might even see a normal world grew up Finn (with grew up I mean like 15, lol) ALSO WE SEE TIFFANY

Simon's side on the other hand,,, jeez I feel like I was synced with Simon in a way that I never really acknowledged Betty's sacrifice... She really did put everything on the side to be with Simon, and for his happiness.... not that it went by unnoticed, but it bugs me to think... what if they did it differently? What if he went on the trip with Betty... I mean to be fair we have the answer... he dies to vampires a couple years after, but how was the time he spent with Betty? What did they change? How did they change and grew even if it did not last forever....

and if you think that this was the part that hit the hardest... buddy..

Yeah,,, I think Betty isn't even there anymore, this was a goodbye... It wasn't explained but I think it was implied that she is gone... That Golb is back to his normal form... i don't know if this will have repercussions in the future? Maybe reform Lich and fuse with him?! I'm just throwing random ideas at this point.

-Final Opinion: This series was amazing, I'm always happy to have more Adventure Time content, it being my main artistic inspiration makes it so much more fantastic to see new characters, places and stories. It was definitely the best mini series so far. The funniest, the most interesting, and the prettiest visually. The epilogue was so heartwarming, Fionna being able to talk with Simon via sms, he's having therapy with Minerva, and PRISMO! Prismo now has the Scarab with him in the Time Room, they are going to make stories together hehe.

(also there was a frame in which prismo's head was flipped? idk if it was an error wtf)

#time adventure #adventure time #fionna and cake #fionna campbell #cake the cat #prismo the wishmaster #cheers #golb #the lich #fionna the human #finn the human #marshall lee #the scarab #adventure time fandom #adventure time headcanons #fionna and cake headcanons #my post

How the Amazon River got its name

Homer’s epic tales speak of a fierce tribe of large, powerful female warriors who dwelled near the Caucasus Mountains in the days before the Trojan War. They were said to have stood against the invading Greeks until their queen, Penthesilea was killed by Achilles. They were called Ἀμαζόνες - Amazons, derived from the Greek words ἀμαζός - breastless, from the belief each warrior had her right breats removed tp facilitate shooting of bow and arrow. There are, however, other theories as to the origin of the word, for the Amazons were often depicted with both breasts, which again calls this myth into question, but that is another topic.

The Amazon River (x)

Fast forward to 1541 when the Spanish seafarer Orellana, while exploring a large river in South America, was attacked by a groupe of natives whose women fought as fiercely as the men.Thinking of the powerful women of antiquity, he named them Amazons, and because they lived by this river, he named the river Amazon.

AITA for killing my husband?

So, basically.. we both live in two seperate places. There is a law that says you cannot have children with somebody that is not in your place. But, I disobeyed. The leader found out and exiled me and my children. I brought them over the river tp my husband's place, or... I tried to. They *drowned.* His leader declined me.. and he called our children creatures. He acted as if they were objects. After I got my revenge on my home place by killing their doctor and somebody who watched my children die, I decided to go after him. I targeted his apprentice first, luring him in, and than i killed him. I think I'm COMPLETELY in the right here, because my children were whispering in my thoughts to kill them, three eyes for three eyes, you know? But maybe I could've been the asshole, I dunno. So, social media, am I the asshole?

J2 Jaxcon Main Panel 2023

Usually, before they go on stage the boys do a fist bump but they didn't get to do it this time because they were running behind so they weren't walking in together so they do their fist bump on stage instead. I love that Jared was all before we do anything else we have to do this about it, it's their little tradition 💕

Jensen asks if Jared has a joke, he kind of does: what do rednecks do on Halloween? He doesn't say the punchline because it is an inappropriate joke, but he does blame Jensen for telling it to him years ago 😂

Jensen does end up saying the punchline later on, and for anyone curious the full joke is: what do rednecks do on Halloween? Pump kin.

Jensen also tells a joke: what tree's favorite holiday is Halloween? Bamboo. Jared told another dad joke: what did the arithmetic seed say when it grew up? Gee, I'm a tree.

And then Jensen confessed that he actually got this joke from a whiteboard that's backstage in the hallway and it's so cute cause when he admitted this, Jared said he had seen it but he wasn't going to sell out his boy. And this is actually why Jensen had asked Jared if he had any jokes because he thought Jared had seen it and was going to say it but Jared says it was stupid 😂

Getting into the questions:

What is their favorite childhood memory?

Jared says it’s difficult to pick a specific one but he had a great time playing outside. When he grew up it was before iPhones, iPads, and all that stuff- he quips that when Jensen grew up it was before cars 😂

He thinks he was trying to figure out all that was going on in his head because they didn’t have the welcomed distractions of social media. He will say this because his sons were in a similar situation around 2 weeks prior, there were about 5 or 6 school friends he had in his neighborhood and they were allowed to TP each other’s houses. Their parents knew and they’d have to clean it the next day but the excitement of it- so, he jokes, his fav childhood memory was a life of crime. But seriously getting outside.

Jensen has many but he’ll choose one; there was a rollercoaster in Six Flags Texas that was called The Shockwave it had two loops and he was too short for the ride, and his brother who was older and had been able to get on it for a couple years was always making fun of him for being too short to get on it but when he was six, he was finally able to get on, and he remembers being so excited that he walked up, got there and when he realized he was tall enough to ride he was like 'oh no' cause he could hear the screams. So he’ll never forget that first ride, and he can almost still taste the adrenaline of when he was a kid. x

What is their favorite, or go to, fake curse word?

Jensen's is shiitake mushrooms.

Jared’s a fudge guy. The one that starts with an F is the one he probably says most often, and G doesn’t love it when he says it in front of the kids. x

Besides the ‘67 Impala what is their dream car?

Jared says the first car that he bought was a '69 Camaro, and that Jensen teases him because he has been saying for as long as they've known each other that the car is getting restored. But Jensen says he has never seen proof of life so he doesn't believe him.

Jared’s favorite vehicle on the planet is a C2 Corvette Convertible so '63 to '67 probably '67 and probably with a 327. The 427 dips the front a little bit because it was heavy.

Jensen says many, many years ago, probably early 2000’s, he had a 1973 Ford Bronco. He says it was so fun, that he took it places he probably shouldn't have- he used to drive it through the LA River. He ended up selling it after a few years because he was always working so he barely got to use it and he loved that car so much that it actually made him feel bad that it wasn't getting used. He ended up selling it to a sound guy who lived in Venice Beach, and he's always regretted it. So he’s now building one! He found a 1969 body so he's currently restoring it and should have it soon. x

How do they not get caught up in the fame?

They joke they have wives who remind them hourly.

Jared would honestly say, that for him and Jensen it never occurred to them. It was kind of a blessing and a curse that the show was in Van cause it's not like they were going to a red carpet every night or a hot new club you’re invited to cause you’re on tv, you go to work and then go home and then go to work the next day so he feels whatever degree of fame he has was on accident. The first show he did back in 2003-2005 there was no tivo or Netflix, nobody knew who the hell he was for like 3 or 4 years so for him he just kept working and had a 24 year overnight success.

Jensen says it’s not what he thinks most people view it to be with him and Jared. They don’t rely on what fame they have got over the past 25yrs they just live normal lives and occasionally someone will come up and recognize them or it might be easier to get a dinner reservation, so there are a few things that they do notice. He adds that he and D rarely make reservations, they just kinda drop in cause they don’t know what the plan is but D’s favorite line is to tell him to go out and use his face.

Jared jokes he’ll call and make reservations under Jensen’s name.

Jensen shares a story about how his face or whatever little fame he had didn’t work so much so that he found it to be a bit of a conspiracy. There's this restaurant in Van called Blue Water and they wouldn't let him in. He'd walk in, the place would be empty, and when he'd ask if there was room for two he'd be told no. So he'd tell Jared, and Jared would walk in, be in there for half a second, and then turn around and tell Jensen they had room that they were gonna sit them. And this happened like 4 times.

So, he says they don’t live a life that he thinks most people think famous people live.

Jared says he thinks their fame happened as a byproduct of their love for stories, and over the years there were offers to go do movies but they loved their character so he thinks their degree of fame happened as a byproduct; it wasn't something to get famous there were things they could have done to get more famous but it’s more important for him to be attending cons than 20 Oscars. x

Which is their favorite part of the Impala renovations?

Jensen answers air conditioning. Nothing worked in that car, it was a picture car it was just for show. It took like 8 seasons of them begging for the car to sound like it should for them to do something about it but they did nothing else, he thinks it was held together with duct tape and hope. Now they have been lovingly put together and made road worthy but he said not to change anything aesthetically he wanted it to look and feel the same but it’s much more reliable now.

Jared mentions the time Jensen did donuts on set, and everyone was ducking because it was a gravel road so it was sending peebles everywhere. x

What have they been doing during the strike to keep themselves busy and happy?

Jensen replies he's been burying himself in, or really embraced, getting to be a dad every because there were several years where he only got to do that on weekends or here and there so coming up with things to do with the kids and embracing that but knowing that it’s temporary, it's an intense pause and absorb that, and he’s built himself a little music corner in his office. But not much, he’s not building a house or anything like that he’s just having fun and embracing the time he has right now.

Jared says it's much the same for him. It is difficult. It does get stressful especially because for 15yrs he and Jensen would accomplish something every day but the last time he filmed was March 10th so it’s been almost 7 months; it’s been weird for sure but like Jensen he's been hanging with the family and seeing what it’s like to be a parent, and a husband, and a brother, and a friend. x

If they could go back to when they read the very first script for SPN what would they say to their past selves?

Jared jokes that he'd say don’t do it.

Jensen answers that he'd say to his past self 'don't worry, you're gonna play Dean' because originally they were only auditioning for Sam so somewhere out there is his audition tape for Sam. He never read for Dean they just brought him in for the final test audition which is when he met Jared, and that was his first time reading for Dean.

Jared says that’s not uncommon for movies or shows to do, sometimes they’ll audition for just one character and then decide which character each person fits best. They wanna see the same thing they want to see the way you react so it wasn’t like Jensen lost the role of Sam that's just what they do.

Jensen says there are a lot of roles he’s gotten as a product of reading for something else like his role in Smallville. It came down to him and Tom Welling for the role of Clark Kent and Tom ended up getting it then a few years later they called Jensen because they wanted to incorporate him into the show. So they wrote a role for him and gave it to him, so a lot of that happens where you go read for something and end up getting another role. So that's what he would say to his younger self who was reading the script for the first time thinking it would be Sam that he would be fighting for he'd just be like 'hey, don't worry it's gonna be Dean'. And when he read for Sam he did ask when they’d be reading for Dean cause he wanted a shot at it, and he says Kripke and Nutter looked at each other like 'we got you'.

Jared says that more than about the show specifically he doesn’t think there’s such a thing as starting your life or doing something so one day you can have the life you want, life is happening now and that’s something he’s learned through friendships and through relationships. If you sit down and beat yourself up thinking once you get something you’ll have a life and get to do whatever you want to do but life is happening now, you're living life now so he wishes he could tell his past self that because a lot of 20-year-old Jared was upset.

Jensen adds that Jared had just come off Gilmore Girls, he was in his early 20’s and he had a really good set up going in LA, he had a solid girlfriend, really good friends, his dogs, a good house, he was really kind of set up then when the show started they moved to Van. At this point, Jared asks if they’ve told the story about how they found out they would be filming the show in Van. Because they filmed the pilot LA thinking that's where they were going to stay, and then the show was picked up so they go to New York for the upfronts, and then they got flown out to dinner with the bosses at the time and that's when they find out the show would be filmed in Vancouver. So that was a big pulling the rug out kind of thing, it ended up being amazing, Van was a phenomenal place and the show worked out but it caught him off guard but he got by with a little help from his friend. x

They've done anime before, do they like it?

Jared hated doing the VO work for the SPN anime.

Jensen says the thing is with the VO work they did for the anime, which Jared ended up doing a bit more than what Jensen had agreed to, is that they were coming in to effectively dub in English so the animation was already done and they were trying to adjust the dialogue to try and fit what the animation was doing which is backward from how it's usually done. Because normally the dialogue comes first and the animation is done second to match the dialogue and that process of VO work he enjoys but the anime that they did was really awkward and just not that enjoyable. x

When they eat a taco do they tilt their head to the left or to the right?

They both go left. Jared says he holds it with his right same with a pizza because he’s the type to bend the pizza in half and as he's saying this Jensen decides to say it's the same with a kiss and Jared says prove it….and then...they lean towards each other...and act like they're about to kiss….I s2g one of these days...mark my words! One. Of. These. Days. x

If they could live in another country where would it be and why?

Jared answers Italy cause he loves Italy. He also says G is in the process of getting her Italian passport so he gets grandfathered in.

Jensen replies he doesn’t know, he’s pretty happy in America. There are a few places out there he thinks would be really fun to live in, Italy is certainly one. He’s a big fan of Scotland, D’s parents have had a place on the west coast of Scotland for 17 years he could see himself being there, he hears Portugal is lovely, also Switzerland he loves Switzerland. x

What was one of the most difficult obstacles they have had to face or overcome either growing up or in their adult life?

Jared says he doesn’t know where to start but he’ll give it a shot and it's going to sound absurd but uncertainty in general. As a kid he didn’t know much, didn't know what he was gonna do, and he and Jensen had a very similar journey into what they do for a living now, they were both 17yr old Texans moving to the West coast where everyone wants to be in the industry. Even to this day, it feels uncertain cause they’ve both worked for 27yrs then their union went on strike so how does he work and provide for his family and provide an example for his kids- so just trying to accept that nothing is certain. Uncertainty is a part of life and you have to deal with it.

Jensen says life is full of challenges otherwise it'd be very boring so he thinks you embrace those challenges and each one makes you better. When you're challenged you're learning things, that's teaching you things. They both left and moved out to the West Coast when they were teens which thinking about that now knowing what he knows now he can’t believe their parents allowed them to do that but you ask his dad and he’ll say one of the hardest things he’s had to do in his life is get on the plane after driving Jensen to LA and leave his 18yr old son in one of the biggest cities in the world alone. He got to a point that was probably when he booked Days of Our Lives that he had to come to terms with the fact that he was probably never going to move back home and that he was destined to be gone, that was tough to get over. He had a very great childhood with both his parents and both sets of grandparents, he was raised in a very loving home so leaving that and realizing that he probably wasn’t coming back to that was a big leap of faith but again he’s happy he did it because it has given him quite the journey. He says if we cling to what’s safe then we miss out on a journey that’s more rewarding than we could possibly imagine.

Jared adds home is where family is and family doesn't mean blood so you find found family and that's home.

There was a little fangirl!Jared moment when Jensen brought up Days of Our Lives, and when he notices Jensen quips that Jared has also been one of the biggest challenges he’s to deal with in his adult life x

What personality trait from themselves did they bring to Sam and Dean and what personality trait from the brothers did they take to themselves?

Jared will say he is very analytical. Jensen will tease him often because he still reads instruction manuals, he still finds himself more at home plugged into a book than out and about. Sam gave him some pretty awesome hair. And he will say he’s grateful because he got to explore what sacrifice meant without actually having to get possessed by Lucifer, or die several times, or watch his brother die several times so he learned a lot about how to persevere or choosing to persevere. So he guesses he's learned perseverance ultimately is a choice.

Jensen would say something he brought to Dean from his personality is a fierce protection for the ones that he loves. Not necessarily physically like sure if he and Jared are walking down the street and somebody pushes Jared and starts barking at him Jensen is probably gonna come right over his shoulder with a fist which Jared says it’s happened before and Jensen admits it has happened! 👀👀👀👀👀👀

But he doesn’t always mean it physically if somebody is badmouthing somebody that he loves he will wear them down mentally very quickly and it is something he will do unwaveringly. He feels Dean was very much like that as well; something he learned from Dean, he thinks after playing that character for 15yrs his temper has shortened which doesn’t play well into the fiercely protective thing very well so he's still trying to balance those things out.

He thinks Jared would agree those two characters are still very much alive and living inside of them and will forever. x

What was Jensen's inspiration for pursuing music?

He answers just having friends who are true musicians in his life that he gets inspired by musically quite often and it was finally some of those friends encouraging him to listen to that inspiration and do something with it and that was the result of a long time coming. And it's given him not just a voice but also the confidence to do it and enjoy it and music is a powerful thing. x

I found this so adorable I have to include a timestamp to it but just Jensen holding his mic for Jared to say his goodbye to the crowd at the very end- i don't know how to explain but there's something so sweet about it go watch it 🥰

Hyrule can be medieval, but there are a lot of lost civilizations, so we can say that maybe even if the civilizations are lost, some habits survived the passing of time.

The sheikah (in the sanctuaries or even Vah Ruta) or zonnan, for example, have their own devices that their main function is to throw water. These could have served the purpose of agriculture and to clean.

Hyrule is medieval with lots of advanced civilizations, but that doesn't mean that all of their devices or habits are gone, we can still find the temples or tracks that they were once there.

Considering that there are old people in Hyrule and that they are still alive (taking for reference the medieval era in our world where a 30 years old was considered a elder because of the life expectancy), we have two options: hylians don't get sick often or people have a good hygiene.

Some of the habits that survived were the ones about hygiene, and we can even speculate that the devices are still in use even if the people don't know their origins.

Besides, Hyrule has a rainy climate that creates rivers and lakes, and it has lots of mountains (that contribute to the water cycle).

In conclusion, there are a lot of facts that say that the boys are clean (or at least they try to be (catching a cold in an era where penicillin doesn't exist is a game over and the heroes mustn't die before completing their purpose (being TP the only game where a doctor exist (we exclude the cientists in other games because they are cientists not doctors))). Problem solved.

But I can't defend Wild or Twilight because in an interview with Aonuma and Fujibayashi, they said those two were the ones that stink the most.

And I can't defend all of them after a battle, but I tried my best.

-💠 (aka "I don't know why I'm doing analyzing this topic")

I fully agree with this except for one crucial point.

This is under the assumption that there is a civilization. Which is all fine and dandy. I like to think that Wild actually has a bathroom/shower at the back of his house in BotW- you know that one door that's just there for no reason?

But they're in the middle of no where. No plumbing. No water. No soap- unless they brought some. But they're gonna run out at some point.

And again, teenage boys just stink. End point. It doesn't really matter what they do. If they're active, they smell. ^.^*

I think most of them would jump at the chance to take a shower when the opportunity arrives. Warrior and Sky I think are at the forefront, but how many times is that going to happen?

How many of them are willing to jump into a freezing cold river?

3 and 6 for the positivity meme?

I'll answer this backwards because my answer to no. 3 got long.

6 - what's a headcanon that you'll die on that hill?

Lewis Nixon III was a theater kid and has done drag in his life. This is forreal. The ghost of Dick Winters revealed this to me in a dream.

3 - what are some fics you go back and read again and again?

oh I love this question. in the last ask I did say I left out some creators and now is my time to redeem myself! (also another reminder that I desperately need to finish this massive fic rec post I have been steadily adding fics to since January BUT ANYWAY)

under the cut!

all of @churchkey's Winnix and ToyeMalarkey fics! god do I love them so much. I re-read A Spell of Riot once a year since it was completed.

and of course @anthrobrat's Bob, TP, and Gen Kill fics!

all of BristlingBassoon's Winnix fics - Queen for a Day inspired my "Lewis has done drag" conviction and When we met, you'd never expect this series is just. divine.

@marycontraire's Contact Tracing. of course.

make it up as we go along - Joe drives his cab, Chuck plays Call of Duty, and Babe just wants to pass Biochem; their apartment is like Grand Central at the best of times and that’s without the two possible fugitives they decided to harbor in the guest room; Luz’s life is turning into a terrible romcom about a coffee shop; Harry’s friends are bad at running a bar but they’re trying their best; somebody got punched in the face; and someday there will be a New York Times Bestseller about all of it.

Or, the interlinked soap opera-worthy drama of a group of millennials in Philadelphia, told day by day.

Lie if God is Sleeping - Gene flipped the puzzle over to read the back. “My name is Edward Heffron,” he read aloud. “I killed a man, and now I’m paying the price. 18,000 pieces. It will take approximately seven days to complete me. For experienced players only.”

What the fuck was a curse this nasty doing in a Philadelphia used bookstore?

rivers always reach the sea - my favorite webgott canon era series fic ever

Situation Normal - Winters and Nixon move to the city, reunite with some old friends and find themselves adopting a new, four-legged one.

By Small and Small - Babe wants to keep talking with Gene, but he doesn’t really know what to say. He feels like, in the past, he never would’ve shut up, but now, since Julian, he’s just got nothing. Maybe that’s grieving; Bill says that’s grieving, anyway, but Bill uses the term like a Band-Aid to put over every aspect of Babe that has changed.

Or: The one where Gene is in med school and Babe's messed up over Julian.

Dear Lover - A group of friends who supervise soldiers' mail are secretly very invested in one Major Winters' letters to a woman he seems to be having a secret affair with.

all or SJtrinity's Band of Brothers (webgott) fics and The Pacific (sledgefu and andyeddie) fics

Green and Gold - Merriell has dark magic and a guilty conscious. He never considered how the war would change them.

The American Sublime - "Tactician that he is, he finds the likelihood of still being loved by someone who, thanks to him, has just awakened to a wicked hangover and a face full of cold piss next to nil."

Dick Winters and Lewis Nixon billet together at a farmhouse in Holland for a rare few weeks of peace and privacy, while Dick struggles to process his promotion and his time away from Easy Company. Set during the first minutes of Episode 5, "Crossroads."

Cows. Wildflowers. Feelings. Handjobs.

Black Ink on Some Blue Lines - It’s been sixteen years since the letter was written, but it never found its way to the one it was intended for. The thing about secrets is they eat away at you, not all at once but slowly over the years, and you begin to wonder, to play out the what if scenarios in your mind. Instead, David buried it away and pretended like it never existed. He should have killed it, he thinks to himself, not buried it while it still had breath in its lungs.

In which David remembers his evolving relationship with Joe over the course of the war and decides to deliver a letter.

Baby You Can Drive My Car - Everyone has their thing. Perco takes watches. Nix scrounges for liquor. Welsh continues his never-ending quest for anything that will please Kitty Grogan. Even Eugene robs abandoned apothecaries with only a touch of guilt, making off with as many bandages and sulfa packets as he can carry. And then there’s Speirs, sweeping behind them like a shadow and carrying away anything they leave behind that sparkles or shines.

Babe steals cars. He’s getting pretty good at it.

Come in From the Cold - In which Smokey Gordon's coffee shop 'Bastogne' saves lives by lending cutting instruments and offering a steady supply of caffeine and sugary goodness. The shenanigans are just a by-product.

Call me 'sweetheart', Please? by @mariamegale - A not-relationship in the making. (baberoe)

anthroposcene, interrupted - Three months ago, Ray Person was a Philosophy major at Harvard. Now, he's dodging Runners trying to get from St. Louis to Cambridge without a) starving, b) dying by accident or c) offing himself. However, three's company, and it comes in the form of a dog with no bark and a taciturn Marine Staff Sergeant who's last name is Not-Pitt, which has gotta count for something.

Well, the new ecological miracle episode has just been released, you know what that means~

Today we will be reviewing the shortest miraculous special until now, Miraculous season 5 episode Action.

Let’s see what they did with the episode with the concept of one of the few kwamis I still like.

We start the episode with Marinette and Adrien driving to Luka’s boat house, and we know the episode is good when the animation looks like this

They didn’t even try.

Nino calls them in because he has some important news which is that people were throwing trash in the sena river and it was going to the ocean.

Nino: if no one handle the plastic problem, who will?

the show spent 1:14 minutes without throwing the lesson in our face, that’s a record!

And really, I really don't like it when people have an eco episode and just have the main characters, I think it's much better to have the main characters help the background characters protest, clean up, plant a fucking tree, or whatever whatever they're doing, it helps the scene feel more organic, when it's just a bunch of teenagers doing something, it looks like the characters are just Mary Sues because, you know how many environmental groups? Very little, so yeah, a bunch of kids would be able to get the whole fucking town to participate.

Well, anyways let's give a look at the group's plan.

WTF-

THEY CONVERTED THE HOUSE BOAT INTO AN ECOLOGICAL WATER TREATMENT PLAN? HOW? WHERE DID THEY GET THE MONEY TO DO IT? AND WHAT ABOUT THAT THERES PEOPLE LIVING THERE? THOSE THINGS ARE NOISY, HOW IS ANYONE GOING TO SLEEP? AND WHAT IF IT IS TOO HEAVY FOR THE BOAT? IT WILL SINK AND YOUR FRIEND JULEKA WILL BE HOMELESS, actually, DID LUKA’S MOM AGREED WITH IT? IS THIS EVEN LEGAL

AND I’M NOT EVEN GONNA MENSION HOW THE FUCK DID THEY BUILD THIS.

Well, they teach the little kids that plastic doesn’t decompose easily and there I already saw the thing was for little babies that don’t know the basic and I lost all hope this episode would be at least decent.

the boat starts to shake and they go to check what is happening and we find out that a large increase of plastic coming from… fans vending machines….. so, people can cool off…. Ugh, first of all, who buys fans that aren’t for decoration? people to buy AIR CONDITIONERS OR FANS (the not Chinese one) did Astruc ever used a Chinese fan? Those things the more you shake it, the more your arm hurts, second, really? Vending machines? The problem isn’t people putting plastic on everything even if they don’t need to, and after that not discarding it properly, the biggest problem with plastic in the ocean is fans? And third aren’t fans made out of like paper? Or like this super light material? There are some fans made out of plastic but this looks like a paper fan.

How much do you bet they just put that the biggest treat is vending machines so they cannot work at all on how to resolve the conflict and make an ending that doesn’t make sense?

Well because there was too much plastic everyone evacuates and the ship explodes… yes. the ship fucking exploded.

So Juleka IS homeless now, all plastic does to a ship is making it get stuck, and showed to us What overheated was the engine, so what caused the boat to explode and what caused it to clog, SO WHO'S FAULT IS THAT? WHO’S FAULT IS IT THAT JULEKA IS NOW HOMELESS HUH? WHO’S FAULT IS THAT?

Juleka and Anarka just accept they don’t have a home now and Nino tells Adrien to talk tp his dad.

Adrien: you know how my father is, he won’t listen!

Marinette: what if we try to resolve this another way? By going to the root of the problem,

Ok that was kinda creepy, Marinette what are you doing to do? MARINETTE WHAT WILL YOU DO TO THE VENDING MACHINES? MARINETTE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

All joke’s aside, Marinette asks her dad if she and her friends can pick up the bakery supplements which he says yes so, they rush their way to there.

They get the boxes and Marinette asks if they can see the new character they made for the special only and after that will be forgotten even if he could be important, you know? As always, his name is plastic king but I’ll just call him “the boss”

The guy then shows they were the boss lives and- Marinette is gonna break into his house huh? At this point I’m not even surprised.

Nino makes everyone disguise themselves but they are immediately discovered, but Marinette uses her main protagonist powers and they’re able to pass the staff.

So, they reach the boss

Bro looks like that one villain from the Gnomeu & Julieta movie

Well, they make a little presentation about plastic which really, it's short but I really liked it they didn't demonize plastic, but instead said that plastic IS important for our society and that we shouldn't just stop producing it, instead they say that people buy thing and throw them away right after, putting the blame not in the company but in the people, which surprised me, EXPECIALY for a miraculous, I actually think that's the better portrait of taking care of our planet In a kids show I've ever seen.

The boss explains that this of people buying and throwing it away so they can buy more is design like that and nothings gonna change, RIGHT BEFORE SHOWING ALL WE HAVE IS MADE OF PLASTIC DEMONIZING IT AGAIN AND MAKE MY COMPLIMENT USELESS, CONGLATULATIONS SHOW

The group then fuck off out of the guy’s office and Marinette has the idea to go talk to the mayor, how did Marinette without Zoe’s help was able to have a face to face with the mayor I don’t know but oh well.

Andre: But Parisians love the fans my young friend, remove the vending machines installed by the hall across Paris

Marinette: Would make it possible to reduce pollution

Andre: But it would be very damaging to my image

That’s the character that in the end of season 5 we were supposed to be rutting for, and being happy he was able to stay with the nice daughter and his dream job, THIS GUY.

Adrien demonizes plastic to his dad but without success he fucks off.

Marinette then tries to ask Nadja to talk about it in her program but apparently the boss controls the tv channel, and it’s kinda of a bad choice to make a character you’re gonna throw away later such an important person.

We than have a time skip where everyone is now in…. Luka’s boat house….

For the miraculous theorist, I think we can safely conclude, Anarka is fucking rich.

Anyways the group + the people from the around the world special proceed to help max HACK NADJA TV PROGRAM.

WTF? WHY? ARE IN THAT “Just Stop Oil” ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST GROUP? Is the show really influencing that these crazy people are doing the right thing? THEY HACKED A GOD DAMMIT TV SHOW, JUST MAKE THE CHARACTERS THINK THERE’S NO HOPE LEFT, BUT THEM THEY ENTER IN A NOT CRAZY ACTIVIST GROUP AND THE MESANGE WOULD BE DELIVERDED, DON’T GIVE FUEL TO THESE PEOPLE!

We than have one of the most nonsensical scenes of this show. Don’t believe in me? Let me show you.

Firstly, Nino is pointing a camera at the group which means he is doing a live

But we have video of the boat they’re in, underwater shot (which is just the most beautiful water I've ever seen) UK (probably) shot. Japan and NY shots.

Throwing away a perfectly good fan that could be reused when the whole special is LITTEREALY ABOUT RECYCLING

This thing being a worldwide thing but Marinette and Adrien don’t know about them.

The fact that even after being haked the tv show the executives said to Nadja say good things about those idiots.

“nAtUrAlLy I WaS nOt aWaRe oF tHiS, BuT aS sOoN aS i WaS InFoRmEd I hAd EvErY MoRtAl FaN mAcHinE ReMoVeD fRoM PaRiS”

DO YOU SEE MY POINT?

Anyways we see a scene of the boss screaming to Gabriel on his alliance ring that he lied and that Gabriel knew the fans were polluted, again, Gabriel is a character we were supposed to like in the end of season 5.

Well, the boss gets mad and monarch Akumatizes him into king of plastic.

First of all, this doesn't look like plastic, it looks like he's made of candy, THOSE THINGS ON HIS SHOULDERS ARE JELLY BEANS AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME OTHERWISE, I can understand why his skin is pink, his logo is basically just pink, but why black? It doesn't feel like plastic either, and what's with his feet? He has these blisters that look like he's having an allergic reaction or something, and why is his weapon a sword? I understood that when Karami and Tomoe's weapons were a sword, they were linked to swordsmanship, but why is his weapon a sword? Let's be real, the producers just gave him a sword to make him look cool, ok for the things I liked, I liked his crown. It's shaped like a king's chess crown, the design is creative and I liked the look of its lower parts like the lower parts of a doll.

Well, I think I will give him A 5.8/10 I don't know if just making him a gigant version of his logo would be better, no I was just kidding- it's just a joke- please don't do that PLEASE NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Monarch gives him the bee powers and KOP (plastic king) rushes to paralyze the mayor and we see what his powers are about, he turns people into plastic, ok that's actually a good power, it kind of reminds me of the villains from season 2, do you remember season two? When was the show good? And did we have character development? I miss that too.

He transforms the police in plastic and decides to go to the Agreste mansion.

Marinette and Adrien while Adrien was teaching Marinette how to say hi in mandarin, like the language her mom is fluent, and that Sabrine would teach her how to say at least a “Hello”? anyways they both see the Akuma so Adrien leaves her house and they both transform.

KOP transforms the gorilla in plastic so the writers can have the heroes know his powers and that he’s dangerous just for the heroes to not care about that and attack him without thinking twice, but relax guys he just throws them, phew for a moment I thought they wouldn’t do it.

He transforms chat’s staff and well-done king. He doesn’t deserve his staff, or his powers, OR HIS STANS, THAT REFERENCE WAS HORRIBLE I SHOULD JUST SHUT UP.

Ladybug: you’re the tycoon who makes all these polluting fans! The king of plastic, aren’t you?

Chat: the king of pollution you mean.

KOP: miss information, plastic is fantastic!

Ladybug: fantastic would be you ending your reign and all the pollution you’re causing!

Ugh, another show to demonize plastic, actually I think I didn’t said what demonizing plastic is, demonize plastic is put all the fault of plastic pollution in the plastic bottle or the company that made it, and say that the companies should be ashamed of that and they should stop producing plastic, first, we NEED plastic, it became an essential part of our lives, the computer the miraculous teem made this episode is made of plastic, the tv the mlb fans watch It is made out of plastic, everyone has multiple things made out of plastic, the problem isn’t making plastic, the problem is and not recycling it, and not re-using it. and is it the company fault? Me and my family used to travel a lot, and every time we got thirsty, we would buy a water bottle just so when runned out, they threw it away and buy another one, and then I ask you, who fault? The companies or my family’s? but shows tend to just throw all the blame at the companies and forget that we are the ones using it once and throwing it away, but really, I knew since the beginning of the episode they would demonize plastic.

Well KOP go to Luka’s boat house to take revenge on the kids, but ladyboob and cat noar show up to stop him, ladybug then activates her lucky charm which is a plastic bag.

They realize that the plastic bag can’t be turned into plastic because it is already made of plastic so ladybug comes up with a plan.

Alya tells the group to turn on the boat plastic collector system, so chat noir cataclysms the engine, which makes the boat explode in trash again, how many times is Juleka gonna get homeless in one episode?

Well, KOP Drowns in the most beautiful trash I've ever seen and that the MLB producers totally didn't just download from the internet.

Ladybug breaks the sword and purify the Akuma.

The boss: what am I doing here? This is disgusting, aren’t you gonna help me?

Ladybug: this is exactually what millions of sea animals are going through around the world.

Chat noir: and they don’t always have a super hero to offer a helping hand and save them.

The boss: you just covered me in a pile of trash woman, its not my fucking fault people are throwing trash at the sea I just sell plastic, Jesus Christ could you help me I can’t fucking move.

I wish he said it, ok here’s what he actually said.

The boss: ok maybe plastic isn’t always so fantastic.

Aaaaand they rushed the conclusion so that everything would end up in a happy ending, I warned ya.

Ladybug gives him a magical charm so he can remember he got one of the most rushed character developments in history.

We have a scene showing that now everything’s ok, everyone is using the kids’ ideas and tomorrow everyone will forget about recycling and everything will go back to how it was. And that’s where the episode ends.

Ok this episode is not very good.. it’s not the worst thing I’ve ever seen still it isn’t good, there’s a lot of conveniences, the animation is worst than usual, even if I liked the villain, I must say his powers were used billions of times, I liked they give more screen time to the fight though.

The episode was generic and I’m almost sure they made the episode just for 1: people go “oh they are so nice!” so they can cover up the racist (intentional or not) in the show. and 2: for sell merch of Marinette’s water bottle for 65 bucks each.

The message was very over the top, and they didn’t do much to try make something original out of it, they just made a check list with every single trope they use in cartoons ecological episodes and made it, and it looks like they didn’t care to much about logic, that thing in Lukas’s boat house was totally illegal and dangerous, the group just found the boss office because a random dude that worked for him showed them without thinking twice, they can just get into places they shouldn’t be able to and it doesn’t even make sense, they resolve all their problems via hacking a channel network, which doesn’t make sense and even if they were able to do it there are billions of tv ads about recycling and they never get attention, I know it’s a kid show but couldn’t they make the characters say “this fight won’t be easy, but we are gonna fight for a better world, are you with us?” it would be better in my opinion.

The characters literally hacked a network, break into a dude’s office and there’s just no consequences, I know it was for a good cause but still. it looks like the writers knew it was a filler episode and didn’t care about researching any of it, if they did, they would know that MOST BAKERIES USE PAPER BAGS, OR THAT FANS AREN’T MADE OF PLASTIC, OR THAT YOU CAN’T DO A LIVE SHOWING ANOTHER CONTRY IN REAL TIME.

Over all if you enter in this side this episode because a mess, but if you just watch the episode, it isn’t too bad.

And a fun fact this episode was made without Astruc, “but AC, if you think the episode was shitty why does it matter to you?” well my dear summer child, let me tell you, first of, I always thought if the miraculous team could do an episode without Astruc telling them what to do it would be just the best episode of mlb, and after the awakening movie that theory just confirmed itself from me, but no, it wasn’t, not even close.

And because I loved that they didn’t use Chloe in the episode, I bet all my life savings that if Astruc worked on the production Chloe would appear and say something like “ WhO EvEn cArEs AbOuT nAtUrE?” or make Andre seem a nice guy who just wants the best for his city and that totally wasn’t corrupt, so at least that a good thing about this episode.

Anyways I’ll give this episode a 6/10. Thank you for reading until the end, hope I’ll see you in the next post.
