The fact they fixed the bury your gays trope from the game with a beautiful older queer love story that ends bittersweet. Outstanding

Subbed Zexal:

Dubbed Zexal: UHHHHHHH wElL aCtUaLlY. wE dOn’T LiKe dEatH sOOOOOOOOO HE INSTANTLY TURNS ON THE DRAGON THAT IS HIS FRIEND THAT HE KNOWS FOR SURE IS INNOCENT BECAUSE HE WANTED GLORY. 

BECAUSE THAT DOESN’T COMPLETELY RUIN HIS CHARACTER OR THE POINT OF HIS STORY AT ALL, DOES IT?!?!?!?!

Christ, I don’t even like Mizael that much but taking a noble warrior who was willing to stand up for the oppressed (who was also his friend/confidant and later ace card) and turning him into some douchebag who just wants glory is FUCKED UP.

Also, in the dub, the old man/dragon was weirdly shocked/angry with Mizael to match this stupid as shit story change when in the sub, he’s just so stunned to see him and see him so ANGRY that he can barely speak. Mizael is still offended at the idea that he could’ve once been a “filthy human” but from the story in the sub, that’s probably just a subconscious lingering resentment towards the humans who killed him and his confidant, who in reality was protecting them. All of that character and thematic depth is gone in the dub.

TLDR: The Zexal dub took an actually interesting character (though not a particular favourite of mine) and reduced him to a one-note asshole.

#yugioh #ygo #yugioh zexal #ygo zexal #zexal #mizael zexal #mizar zexal #I've been angry about the way the dub screwed up these backstories for months now #I just didn't talk about them when I first saw them because I was taking a break from Tumblr at the time #and this is possibly the worst of the bunch #because at least the others kept their basic characters in tact #this though #this is insulting

I watched again the episode again last night and I’m convinced now. When Anakin tells Obi-Wan that he isn’t Obi-WAN’s failure, I really believe it’s the only thing he can give Obi-Wan. It’s the last bit of humanity that gets lost in darkness agin until Luke finds it. You can tell because as he’s telling Obi-Wan he isn’t his failure, he’s bathed in this beautiful blue. The blue is obviously the blue from Obi-WAN’s saber, but his own saber was also blue. The blue represents his history. His capacity to be good once again. What he was. So when he says ‘I’m not your failure, Obi-Wan.’ to Obi-Wan, it’s coming from Anakin. The Anakin who still wants to be a good person, but doesn’t know how to get back there. The Anakin who doesn’t want Obi-Wan blaming himself for the horrific person he’s become as Darth Vader. Then it wanes and the blue is cut with the red of the saber he has now. And the two colors over on his face. Like battling for his soul. And we watch him choose the dark side all over again as he is finally bathed in the light of his own saber, the blood of innocents. The light of a kyber crystal he bled in darkness. It highlights how horrifically he’s been scarred and his soul has been scarred by giving into the dark. By choosing the dark side. Because he is going to keep choosing the dark side. And this is when his words become cruel and unhinged. As the red light consumes him. It’s perfect and horrible all at once. And I can’t stop thinking about it.

Imagine...

Tickle monster Francis. He chases you down the entire building because you refuse to sleep. Once he catches you, he'll drag you back to your room and throw you onto your bed with ease. He then pounces and tickles all along your tummy and sides until you succumb to sleep, all while looking down at you with that teasing grin.

He's also a big tease and would comment on how cute your squeals of laughter are or point out how much you enjoy it. And if you hide your red face, that'll only make him wanna coo down at you in aww and just tickle tickle some more until you fall fast asleep with a cute smile on your face~💖

I fell down a deep spiral last night and ended up rambling about this Ilierre breakup/makeup futurefic idea to a couple of friends. I'M STILL spiraling over it, and I outlined more of it earlier.

Anyway, I don't know why this scene is so vivid in my head, but I stopped mid-dinner yesterday to write it down.

--

“I don’t want a future with you,” Ilies says, quiet. He’s trembling.

“What?”

The air around them feels like lead. “It’s what you said. Before.” Ilies shuts his eyes, but it doesn’t take away the sting. “You didn’t want a future with me. Not that you couldn’t.”

Ilies had tried his best to shut all of his memories of Pierre in a box over the years. Seeing him now, here, in his apartment, like barely anytime has passed at all? It feels like an awful, terrible kind of burden, knowing that time and distance hadn’t been able to remove the sting, either. 

Pierre makes an aborted move toward him, and Ilies is grateful when he stops. Ilies is unraveling, and the barest touch from Pierre will collapse his house of cards.

“I—I didn’t know what I wanted. I was twenty-six. I thought I had to want certain things.” Pierre’s cheeks are wet. Pierre never cries–or he never did, back then. Fuck. “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. I was young and stupid, and I know that sounds fucking idiotic. I didn’t know, Ilies.”

Ilies grabs onto the edge of the table for purchase. “I’ve been twenty-six, too. I get it. I was supposed to want the big house, that high-profile job. Money. But I never wanted any of that.” He hates that his voice is cracking, hates that he’s giving Pierre so much ammo like this. “The only thing I ever really wanted was you.”

#ilierre #wip snippets #sometimes it's hard for me to look at stuff I've written and not feel like they're lacking #this though #i like this #otp: he can cry and it's not a shame

i was in a poli sci lecture listening to some people in it give what were to me the most braindead takes i had ever heard all for the prof to be like "and none of u have to agree with each other, we're all allowed to disagree" and it made me realize i actually felt bad about the whole thing because how people were telling me to feel or react wasnt how i felt and not because of the situation itself .

I love when existing in real life makes you realize how unserious everyrbing online is like it’s truly a beautiful thing

#THIS THOUGH #after my initial ~36 hours of panic I was like wait okay like is this it #and I felt so shitty for not feeling more disturbed or for wanting to rewatch manhunt #because everyone else was dead silent #and I was so angry for the hit the community took and all the artists and writers who left #but I wasn’t actually upset at the situation bc subconsciously I could recognize the inconsistencies and misnomers #aya asks #drituation

I turn to Ares.

Thanks to Tyler Miles Lockett who allowed me to draw inspiration from his ARES piece for page 2! Look at his etsy page it's SICK

⚔️ If you want to read some queer retelling of arturian legends have a look at my webtoon

#greek mythology #ares #athena #greek gods #dont get me wrong it aint athena slander but it sure is ares praise #on some level at least #man justly accused of bad things deserves some mid praise more at 11 #thank you romi for helping me with words though i duly noted you insisted on ares not being cautious rather than him not being careful #romi be like “i want him to care” and honestly good you should say it #also EPIC led to this and i just..... i want to draw some animatics man i just need infinite time now #my long lost love for greek myths just will never stop coming and they dont stop coming and they dont stop coming #i want some vulture design in here for ares but not sure about this one #kochei doodles

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

Oh…. Well, it’s over for Crunchyroll I guess

#Crunchyroll #piracy #funimation #money hungry ass streaming service #rambling #I’ve never paid for a streaming service in my life thank god #I appreciated using others accounts but I personally cannot see myself paying this much for a service if I had the funds 😭! #get back to pirating kings!!! #anime has always been one of the easiest forms of media to pirate anyway so y’all got this #CR is definitely not worth paying for though #CR is certainly not worth paying this much for even if it’s a yearly one time fee #capitalism #the fact that CR has always had pretty bad quality as a streaming service anyway #it buffers every time you pause or rewind anything

a gentle fact about this world is that people will want to help you. a cruel fact about it is that you do have to put on your big boy pants and open their contact on your phone and say some human words to ask them for it

#but they WILL help you though

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

#i often wonder about how many things would be considered classic or high art had they only received the marketing #how many short films that were made for class could have been the most powerful thing you'd ever seen? if you'd seen them? #“you know the greatest films of all time were never made” etc etc #but like. these works of art ARE being made. it's just enjoyed by a smaller audience with equal impact though #i think about this one furry i used to follow on insta who had the coolest worldbuilding ever. it's been years. #thought prompted by that sketch of nimona from ten years ago that was just for a character design #posted to the creator's tumblr and now it's nominated for best animated feature film at the oscars #and by the genuine emotional reaction a fan comic made me feel. how much work had gone into it. how beautiful it was to me. #idk what to tag this but i hope whoever needs to hear it does #writing #writer #fandom #fandom culture #artist
