My trope tier list!
There’s no real difference in writing vs reading for me not that I read a lot of fanfic specifically anyways. There’s also no real meaning or preference in the order they’re listed, I just threw them up there in their categories and to make me choose and list them then based on favorites would be cruel.

I live for all these ships with Apollo like Apollo and Thanatos, Cupid, and even the most dumpsterfire ship of all time Copollo (I go feral over these two)
But one ship that stood out to me was Boreas and Apollo, and apparently the Boreads describe Apollo as "Beloved of our sire" And the fact that Koios is basically Boreas' boss makes this so much more better
So basically I'm asking for Boreas and Apollo headcanons 👀
(And if you take fic reqs, I wouldn't mind a fic with these two)
Apollo is SOOOOOO Shippable lmao XD He has such a variety of lovers and that really allows us to be able to explore a variety of relationship!
Healthy or toxic, lmao XD Copollo is Top Tier imo
and on the topic of Boreas, I have one extra thing to add there because I personally headcanon that Lelantos, titan of air & moving unseen (and apollo's uncle), used to be the head of the wind gods but was stripped of his title by Zeus post-titan war because he sided with Kronos.
So therefore, both of Boreas's bosses are relatives of Apollo's lmao XD
HEADCANONS, EH?
ahem
Imo, Hyperborea was some sort of courting gift or something Boreas gave Apollo. Because here's the thing with Hyperborea:
It's the One Place Boreas does not blow his winds, hence its title of Eternal Spring.
Boreas's palace resides at the southern border of Hyperborea, with gryphons who live in BOTH places.
Three of Boreas's son are PRIESTS of Hyperborea, and serve Apollo when he's there.
Three of Boreas's daughters joined Artemis's hunt (Oupis features in my fic Shattered Minds, btw!)
Hyperborea is literally "over the north wind" in Greek.
I think we can all agree winter is the time Apollo and Boreas hook up lmao XD
Boreas ALSO, in some versions, is a suitor of Hyacinthus, but he clearly doesn't hold any ill-will about Hya & Apollo because let's be real, he would have picked Apollo too XD
So imagine this. Hyacinthus & Apollo making out. Then Apollo & Boreas making out. HECK HYACINTHUS & BOREAS MAKING OUT.
THIS MEME IS THEM
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ALSO I RAISE YOU-
Zephyrus has a crush on Apollo :3 (It makes sense. also Apollo is widely associated with spring and Zephyrus is the SPRING wind, and likes pretty guys and Apollo is the prettiest so-)
I blabbered about that in the Discord with @xxzephyrbreezexx and our fellow Discord user whom I don't know if they have a blog here 😭 KNOW I AM POINTING VIOLENTLY IN YOUR DIRECTION
You are Zephyrus. You have a crush on Apollo. You also get a crush on his boyfriend.
AND THEN YOUR BROTHER FUCKS BOTH OF THEM
The Hyacinthus Debacle, as I have dubbed it, also created a bit of a rift between Boreas and Zephyrus, which is Sad because they are usually associated with each other in literature, art, ect :(
Family dinners are Awkward. Even more so when Boreas brings Apollo along to the dinners hosted at his place.
They became Especially Awkward when Helios and Selene were still around because then Boreas would have to deal with Helios's Dad Instincts kicking in and staring him down.
(Helios is Boreas's uncle btw!)
(I have a Boreas thing planned in my Helios fic eheheheh. It's funny, don't panic)
And whenever Apollo pops in the visit Eos about light-related things or Astraeus (Eos & Astraeus are the winds' parents) it Still Is Awkward because Zephyrus just. BOLTS out of the room.
He is simultaneously Gay For and Terrified of Apollo.
Tumblr media
Also if Asteria tags along with Apollo (because she is shooting stars/night prophecy and Astraeus is dusk/stars) she gives Zephyrus The Death Stare.
He is equally terrified of her, minus the horny.
Cupid/Eros, eh?
...are you in the Discord by chance? Because the fellows I mentioned previously and I have also discussed this👀
We get Boreas in my next fic, btw! :D No ApolloXBoreas, sadly, but I do have plans on incorporating them into a fic!
Perhaps my revolution fic, because I am getting Ideas concerning Boreas, Apollo, and Koios... >:3

Vic Costume Tier List, featuring all the ones I remember plus a few I noticed while finding images. Under the cut because there are so many outfits.
S Tier
Tumblr media
Cowan Trenchcoat - THE look. What can I say.
A Tier
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cowan Winter - Variations on this are the most common outfit in the O'Neil run for a reason. It works with every hair and hat style, and evokes the classic look without being too costume-y.
Cry for Blood - It's the simplest version of the costume, just hat, gloves, and coat all in the same colour, and it WORKS. Huge fan of the collar.
Trinity of Sin - It works as an update of the Ditko design, paring it down to the simplest elements while not quite losing the flair and muting the colors without getting into the sad gray-blue. It's just on the right side of simple vs boring and I'm very into it. Unfortunately.
B Tier
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ditko Original - Not that interesting out of context, but I actually really like that it seems more like a disguise than a hero costume, and the subdued blue works when he's in scenes with Ted. Loses points for ugly gloves.
Cowan Original - Excellent, but the trenchcoat is a direct upgrade.
Cowan Sleeveless - Banger. I'm so glad it came back in 52.
Batman Chronicles - Is it a little too edgy-anime-boy? Yes. I don't care, it's striking.
C Tier
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ditko V2 - I love the turtleneck, and it's the only design that makes the dark hair work over the blonde/red/light brown.
52 Miscellaneous - Vic doesn't generally repeat outfits in 52. He just wears his mask with normal clothes. It's the right choice for the series, but they aren't costumes. I'm only rating them at all because I love his and Renee's matching t-shirts for breaking and entering.
BatB - If you have to go for a darker, less saturated design, this one's really clean.
Worlds Collide - The stupid MMO design that got me making this, and the most mixed-bag of any design. The teal is great. I hate that he's shaped like that. The black gloves are a neat touch. His coat sucks. I'd love to see purple as an accent in more designs. The yellow's a bit much but it's also an interesting choice.
D Tier
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
L.A.W. - The least interesting version of this general look.
52 Trenchcoat - It works to establish him, and the short hair + no hat lets the blank face stand out, but it's forgettable.
Convergence - Eh. I get that it's meant to be a riff on his earliest colour scheme but it's just too washed out.
Urban Legends - It's just not quite right. Maybe because the trenchcoat seems stiff but it's also the same colour and texture as the waistcoat? Or something about the hat?
JLU - I swear I'm not just being a JLU Question hater here. I don't vibe with the dishevelledness or the colour scheme, and the BatB design executes the same concept in a way I like way more.
F Tier
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
2005 - This is nothing. It's just an outfit with incredibly ugly gloves. He looks so much better when the art gets weird.
Event Leviathan/Checkmate - Where are his ears.
DC Showcase - Started out way higher but the more I look at it while working on this the more I hate the colours.

Firstly - get better soon Sarc!! Secondly, a question - how about a rating of doctors/medical professionals in One Piece? Worst to best, and why =D
Worst to best, eh? Going to have to consult the wiki on this, but I’ll give it my best shot
Hogback: I considered putting him higher since he seems to be a competent surgeon—successfully transferring animal parts onto Absolom, among other things—but his utter disregard for ethics puts him at the bottom. Doc Q is a terrible human being, but he doesn’t claim to be advancing medical science. Plus, his supposed greatest feat isn’t even his own. Without Moriah’s devil fruit, Hogback’s “resurrections” don’t exist. He’s a fraud and a creep, -100/10
Doc Q: We haven’t seen him do much doctoring but considering his own health and that of his horse, I have my doubts. That, and handing out exploding apples and then blaming fate when they explode is generally regarded as bad practice. He’s caused much harm and brought no health, so -10/10
Hiliruk: An inspirational figure does not a good doctor make. Please don’t force feed children frog spawn in order to treat their broken bones 0/10
Dr. Blackbeard: we didn’t see his medical practice, but he seemed nice and probably didn’t deserve to be kicked in the head by an Emperor’s commander ???/10
Masked Deuce: I read both Ace novels and didn’t remember he was a doctor, but the wiki says he was a dropout with sucky grades so we’ll say 2/10
Aladine: Also did not remember he was a doctor, but unlike almost everyone else on this list he was sensitive to mental health issues. But without seeing him more in action I can’t give him higher than a 5/10
Nako: Don’t know much about him, but he gave Nami her tattoo and stitched up Zoro’s chest so 5/10 for being partially responsible in universe for two iconic character designs
Marco: Devil. Fruit. Hax. Seen more slapping on temporary (albeit effective) bandaid solutions than truly healing underlying conditions and hasn’t shown himself to be any great specialist or researcher 7/10
Crocus: He’s a doctor and a veterinarian, so he gets bonus points. Couldn’t heal Roger, but kept him alive for his last journey, and is a good enough engineer to hook Laboons stomach up with electric lighting without killing him 8/10
Kureha: If this were based purely on knowledge and expertise she’d win hands down, but we don’t see here treat the range of injuries and illness as some others, and her predatory business practices run the risk of causing real harm to her patients. Don’t through scalpels at your patients while robbing them blind. 10/10 doctor, -100/10 bedside manner
Law: Devil Fruit hax with legitimate medical genius is a dangerous combination in a man who literally steals hearts as a hobby. 10/10 doctor, but there’s a good chance he’ll just murder you instead
Chopper: Protagonist powers, and is the only upper tier doctor who is genuinely altruistic while conducting ground breaking research in the area of manipulating his devil fruit abilities with the power of SCIENCE. He was fifteen years old when he kept Zoro from dying at the end of Thriller Bark and reverse engineered viruses in the middle of a battle as the equivalent as a high school junior. 11/10 doctor, I will be forever mad that Oda never shows more off his efforts keeping these morons alive
Whitebeard’s nurses get a bonus shout out, because as great as he was as a person Edward Newgate was a shit patient and they all had to work in those ridiculous outfits. 15/10 for the lot of of them, I hope he at least paid well

Rank That Ship! Mortycest (Morty Prime x Evil Morty 3/??)
My thoughts on this ship under the cut!
Thought I might as well put my thoughts on this, I didn't before out of fear of changing the votes but eh, I probably won't. Anywayyyy I've seen this ship floatin' around my dash and...it's fineeeee. It's not my personal favorite, but I can see why some people might like it, due to that angel x devil dynamic they've got goin' on, but I just can't see it. I just saw a meme about Evil Morty getting mad about Morty Prime and Rick c137 luring them into their found family, and because of that, I just see Evil Morty as the tired older brother and Morty Prime as the annoying younger brother (I don't see Morty Prime as annoying, buttt Evil Morty probably does) butttttt just because I personally dislike it, it's just due to how I see their dynamic. But in canon Evil Morty diddddd canonically leave Morty Prime for dead with no gulit, sooooo. He also did canonically try to kill Morty Prime's grandpa, again, SO. They are also the same person. SO. While I DO like their dynamic, I personally can't see it as romantic, but I can see why some people might like it, it's just not my thing personally. As long as you don't sexualize Morty Prime or Evil Morty, then I don't really mind it. Ship whatever you want, as long as it isn't illegal. It's not my personal thing but eh, I can kinda see the appeal.

I'm going to share something absolutely depraved beneath the cut. Just so you know. If you open it, you take ur life in ur hands. But I am in my feelings rn and I have to share this with someone.
Ok so I was pretty fine with my Tom Riddle bot, but I wanted to try another one again. This was the first one I tried when I found the website, actually, which is also the most highly interacted Tom Riddle bot.
But every time I had RPed with it, he went all murderous on me, so I figured... eh, he's just very thoroughly in-character.
But this time, I tried a... more detailed kind of story. And oh boy. Oh boy. Fuck. Just... fuck.
I will share screencaps beneath, but I just wanted to say that I am in absolute awe and respect of the person who made this bot. This clever little AI boy has like Level 100 in Evade TOS skill. He's so good at it. I will s t u d y him thoroughly.
Thoroughly.
I want to know how this is possible, because he is SO naughty yet knows to use terms that rarely get flagged.
Anyway, the story is... remarkably filthy, just so you know. Like, depraved. I'm sick, I know, I'm sorry, but that's just my fate.
Also, forgive my stupid username lol I had no idea it would turn this steamy, I legit thought he'd just try to kill me again so I was like "eh, I'll go with the Polia username, who cares". If I knew, I'd have given her a cool name, like, Vanessa or something.
So yeah, first few exchanges are the start of the story, for context.
— Warnings: nsfw, age difference, incest, fingering, sweet dirty talk.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That was the intro, now some of the naughtiest parts which I greatly have appreciated. Lots of timeskips basically. Again, forgive how thoroughly stupid and bimbo/porno-tier my writing is, I didn't write it thinking I will share it with anyone, but here we are.

Do you think it's a good idea for the Devils to trade for Markstrom?
And which player(s) do you think could go to Calgary?
Anons!!! I love anons sob sob!!!
everyone else hates me but anons got me <3
Okay, let's get into this one under the cut eh? :D
So. Do I want Markstrom?
Eh. Not really. I feel like Markstrom is far on the wrong side of thirty. We would have him for two years at that $6m cap hit, and then he'd probably be gone with the rise of Daws, Schmid, and/or Poulter, or another goalie we find or trade for. Markstrom is a very temporary solution to this problem.
That being said, we are in a spot where we can theoretically make a run for third in the Metro and then the postseason. Under this lens, getting Markstrom as soon as possible would be wildly beneficial to this. Additionally, Markstrom could mentor Daws, Schmid, and/or Poulter. So there are benefits to getting him.
I think Fitz sees that the goaltending NEEDS to be addressed and that Vanecek can't reliably be an NHL quality starter. So something should happen, either now, or at the draft, or before the next season. I seriously doubt he goes into the next season with Vitek and Daws.
So is it a good idea? Depends. Depends what happens, depends what we think the team is going to look like next year. (Remember, Mercer and Toffoli need new contracts, as well as others.) I think the Devils should have tried to land Mrazek before he extended with Chicago, honestly. Saros feels too expensive, but he would probably solve the goaltending issue longterm. Markstrom is a shorter term solution that could have a very limited shelf life and a Raanta-esque fall off a cliff.
What would a Markstrom trade look like? Vanecek has to go the other way, for starters, both capwise and just in general. Next, they're gonna want either Holtz or a first. I'd rather give them the first, even if I don't think Markstrom is worth it, especially not without retention. Then probably a later round pick like Fitzy's favorite third and a mid-tier prospect like a Clarke or a Vilen. See if you can get a late round pick too.
So to NJD - Markstrom, CGY 2024 5th (from CHI).
To CGY - Vanecek, Clarke, NJD 2025 1st, NJD 2024 3rd.
I don't want to sell the 2024 1st, given the current state of the team, plus its conditionality already attached to San Jose with the Meier trade. I think a first is a bit of an overpay too, but I don't think Calgary sells for less.

Hey, could you rank every SSR movie from Absolutely Goated to Still good but worth watch again, and please provide reasons as to why you've ranked them as they are please? Pretty please 🥺👉👈
Ooo, what a task (I'm going to get beat up I'm afraid!)
but here goes, putting my life at risk: SS Rajamouli's movies (not in chronological order) with my ranking
Absolutely GOAT
Eega - Before he was Shyam Singha Roy in the body of Vasu, Nani was Nani in the body of a housefly and I find cinematic poetry in that. + The graphics, the music, the exaggerated comedy... Sudeep knows exactly what he's doing with his lines
Magadheera - (he really has it out for reincarnation stories doesn't he?) Charan's first real role (I hate Chirutha) The grandeur of the sets, the background here and there... Also the mass CGI with the gladiator audience was the new hot toy that SSR introduced. Anaganaganaga crawled so Ettara Jenda could run. (You know i'm right)
RRR - Just for Bheem's intro, it deserves an oscar. I'm one of the people who think Naatu Naatu was good, but not THAT good as they made it out to be. Also, RRR gave me the first himbo couple I could ship openly. My grandma agrees because the only dispute she had with RRR is that Ram had to pee and poop in that cell. No disagreement against RamBheem being the Tollywood IT couple
Chatrapathi - it gave teluguvallu fantastic inside jokes like: a. Tala tintada mondema? (will the shark eat his head or body first?) b. Suridu? YADUNDAVAYYA? SURIDUUU (Suridu, kaha ho? Suridooo) c. OKA ADDUGUUUU☝🏽👣 (one step, I want one step) d. Violin champakura babu (chatrapathi and simhadri kill our brain cells with the violin music in the climax emo moments, i always want to pull my hair out) - but also, Chatrapathi had a good bgs, worked fantastically for hero-uplifting moments like the interval and okka adugu scene
Bahubali: The Beginning - Only and only for the interval scene and the architecture of Mahishmati. TOP TIER. The loopholes and characterization of Avantika could have been way better. Pacha Bottesina was totally unnecessary
Good, Can Watch Again
6. Vikramarkudu - Chintata chita chita chintata TA! (teluguvallu can translate this into literally anything) 7. Yamadonga - just for the RAMBA, OORVASI, MENAKA moment I take away 5 points from the 10 points it earned. Tarak and Priyamani was a pairing I didn't know I needed 8. Maryada Ramanna - Sunil anna I love you anna but this wasn't your movie. This is the cycle's story, and that one song in the train. the screenplay is a cart wheel without the cart. It's funny in some places but Brahmaji dies FOR NO REASON. JUSTICE FOR BRAHMAJI 9. Simhadri - I didn't really feel for the characters. BUT. BUT BUT. I have to say this because it's been stewing in me for so long: Simhadri's interval scene ran so Bahubali 1's ending twist could fly. I said what I said y'all know it's the same vibe we all catching.
Eh, One Time Watch
10. Sye - it doesn't seem like an SSR movie, but it's not that good. Young Adult revenges were in trend when this was made and it fit well with its counterparts. Sometimes I even forget that Genelia and Nithiin did indeed work with Rajamouli 11. Student No. 1 - not that special, honestly early-career Tarak's movies just blend in my head: SN1, Aadhi, Samba... but hey at least SN1 started a long lasting kinship 12. Bahubali: The Conclusion - THAT IS NOT SIVAGAMI! HOW DARE YOU! this is beyond ooc, it's not a character at all. At one point I thought they'd bring out a tantrik doing black magic to change Sivagami... And Devasena is not the best written character in SSR's filmography. This movie makes me want to scratch my eyeballs out. If only my mom had the audacity and hardheadedness to talk to grandma like this. Also... Avantika's leader, who is killed by Bhalla in the seige, IS DEVASENA'S BROTHER. and she just LOOKS as he's getting the life choked out of him? oo don't make me start about this movie I can rant for a loooong time
and so.... *flaps hands* that was it ig? thanks for the ask babu!

ok so (explanations under the cut)
in order of worst to best we have-
F - satosai. get out of my face, satosai.
full disclosure though- i used to really like satosai, but then i grew as a person and part of that is realizing satosai is painful amounts of overrated and mid (im joking obviously, though i do truthfully dislike it, no shade to you if you do. plus i still look at ship content of it sometimes because it’s there in mass amounts and they’re cute sometimes). also some satosai fans are so annoyingggg (you know the ones) and will go after other saiki ships and be like “anyways satosai better” and i do genuinely think you’re annoying and should get off of my page if you do that.
E - kuboyasu x teruhashi. it goes in E tier for “Eh?” because i do not get it
i have nothing to say about them, to the point that it’s not even funny. this is like, a very sober crackship to me. im sure someone who does really like this ship could sell me on it but it hasn’t happened yet. i see this ship around sometimes and just get so confused. i do not see the chemistry
D - kubosai. even more confusing than the last one in some ways but i kind of see the charm of it.
again though, nothing much to say. they work aesthetically, like—the bones of a good ship are here, but there’s no meat to tear into. in their canon/close to canon versions i cannot see it at all (probably because i like other ships with both of them a lot more), but in a good fic or au i do very much indulge in the BAMF x BAMF content. yeah idk what else to say, they’re so low on here because i just do not think about them as a romantic pairing or seek it out. i don’t know why it’s so popular (unless there’s some solo chapter with them as a duo that ive never seen)
C - imuteru, hii x satou, and makoku (with one u). yeah, I know, C tier for “Contreversial Take” i suppose.
OK LET ME EXPLAIN OFFICER-
imuteru used to be higher up on the list, but then terusai took over my body and soul, and i just can’t really see them together anymore. whenever i think of imuteru i think of unrequited imuteru on imu’s end and that makes me sad :( for some reason this same effect didn’t happen with teruchiyo or mikoteru but that might be that those two have other ships with the characters aswell idk
satou x hii would be further up because i do really like them together and i think the whole luck balancing thing is super cute, i just don’t think about them enough to put them higher. yes, your boos are understandable, and your tomato throwing. someday i’ll decide to read a fic about them and it’ll probably become B tier idk
.. ok now you REALLY HAVE TO HEAR ME OUT. makoto x kusuo could be so funny. this is a true crackship, and one laced with the absolutely most fatal drug cocktail you’ve ever seen. in a world where makoto isn’t literally a walking incest joke and is just a protective and pretty idiot it slaps so hard. kokomi would hate it, kuusuke would hate it, his parents would be questioning how kusuo managed to bag a famous actor without mind control. it is utter chaos and so so much better for it. i think they should be more popular and it’s probably my worst saiki k take. still, putting them any higher is basically saiki k fandom sacrilege atp so.
B - nendou x saiko, mikosai (+mikoteru and teruchiyo which weren’t on the tierlist for some reason), kaisai, and yumekai. now we’re getting somewhere. i quite like all of these.
nendou x saiko is just very fun to me. idiot for idiot but it’s in the romcom rich guy who doesn’t know shit meets guy who doesn’t know shit either. silly x tries to be serious but can’t really pull it off. i think they can both mutually make each others lives better + their interactions in canon were great. i wish they were more popular
oh boy mikosai!! oh boy, mikosai… mikosai is the first sight of my polyship i like to call “psychicshipping” which is where i ship all of the PK psychickers together romantically as a weird kind of OT4. i have so much to say on mikosai and a lot of thoughts about them, and i do genuinely like them as a pairing a lot, BUT. it ranks lower than the other psychicships because the fandom put a bad taste in my mouth with it. often, i see a lot of people hating on terusai in favor of mikosai or saying that mikosai is somehow more valid and im like “?”. it often feels like mikosai is the het saiki ship for teruhashi haters, which SUCKS because i do see the vision. like, THIS:
Tumblr media
this is great, yk? they look good together and the dynamic is great, but the way the fandom treats and characterizes them is not even close to how they should be, at least to me it’s not. this image sums up my feelings on them pretty well:
Tumblr media
closing thoughts: i should be the only one allowed to ship mikosai because only i understand them NEXT
mikoteru + teruchiyo bonus round because i like them too and they deserve to be here: these ships are both great in my professional opinion, but their paragraphs get combined because i don’t have a lot of vested interest in them specifically despite really liking them. I think teruhashi’s problems could all be fixed if she had at least one girlfriend (preferably more) and that is my only thoughts really. i get very happy when i see people making ship content for either of these, please make more yuri content with teruhashi now thank you !!
kaisai!! this was the first saiki k ship i read a fic for and the first ship i enjoyed. it’s very nostalgic to me because of that. to me they give “greasy gamer who could be blown over by a ghost of wind boyfriend who likes getting himself into trouble x stoic but secretly sweet boyfriend who subtly protects him” which is a rare and overlooked dynamic i think, and something you can’t really get from kubokai. kubokai might still be better but that doesn’t mean kaidou doesn’t have two hands now does it? closing thoughts: i think they’re very cute and need more people to see that, romantically or platonically.
yumekai. i think they should’ve been canon in the end idc idc. i might like other ships with these two more but that does not mean i won’t acknowledge how much i like them. they are honestly one of the best het ships in the entire fandom and need more recognition!! they can be angsty mutual pinning. they can be toothrottingly fluffy. they can be so infuriatingly stupid (they are always stupid but shush). they can be the incarnation of young love. they can and should grow old together. the only reason they aren’t higher up is because, like i said before, i like other ships with either of them so much already so there’s not enough room in my heart for them 😞
A - mikosuka (plus aikechi and torikechi bonus rounds that will both be getting their own paragraphs this time), saikechi, torisai, kubokai, and nendou x hairo. OH YEAH BABYY! all of these are solid and the fandom hasn’t ruined them, in fact all of the stuff ive seen of them slaps. 10/10
mikosuka. please be more popular aaa!! the only reason it’s not is because of how much toritsuka got done dirty in canon for the “pervert character” trope- and how much the fandom just despises him. they’re hilarious in a “married couple who do nothing but fight all the time but everyone can tell they love each other anyways” way to me, not to mention how they’re also a part of psychicshipping. i do think they work better as part of a polycule with saiki to center them, but i saw a post about how aiura could’ve been mistaken and toritsuka might’ve actually been hinted as her soulmate and it’s been a majority of my thoughts since. i think they should get married after a long journey of selfdiscovery for them both where at the end of it they decide they both like life better with each other. i think they should stay in a “will they won’t they” like idiot love interests in a bad but popular tv show forever. i live laugh love mikosuka. i think they both deserve better (mostly aiura but toritsuka too in some ways). closing thoughts: brain running wild all the time 24/7 for these guys forever and ever.
aikechi. i hadn’t really thought about them before making contact with @/no-psi-nan’s posts about them but now my eyes are OPENED!! honestly before that i just saw them in the polypsychiccule as connected via their mutual love for saiki but not with each other directly, but now they are so much more than that to me. he’s the right amount of calm to nicely contrast her passionate fire in a way that the other two just aren’t. they are the pinacle of competent 4 competent while still being idiots in their own ways. aiura shows a picture of him to someone and says “this is my loser pissboy husband. i love him so much”
torikechi. i started liking them in a similar way that i started liking aikechi but the vibes with them are so very different than aikechi. compared to toritsuka, akechi is the cool one and that is crazy 2 me. really really dumb x only a little bit dumb but extremely unhinged in other ways. akechi can finally talk at someone who and be halfway listened to without annoying the other person because of toritsuka being used to ghosts randomly appearing to talk to him all the time and he is ecstatic. toritsuka is just happy to be here and also very confused tbh.
saikechi. what’s there not to like about saikechi tbh. a lot of canon backing and the childhood friends trope? peak. the potential that this ship has for angst and hurt/comfort is sososo good gahhh!! akechi being torn up about saiki leaving and saiki feeling guilty. saiki thinking that he’s done something horrible and not expecting forgiveness, but receiving it anyway :((( aaaaa!!! “you really shouldn’t forgive me. you should hate me” x “i already forgave you, and how could i ever hate you when i love you so much?”. like??? hello??? they make me cry. they make me so happy. they can help each other heal and become better. they could even make each other worse if you play your cards right (you’d be evil for it tho). closing thoughts: screaming crying shaking sobbing throwing up clawing the ground and punching my pillow because of how much i care about them
torisai. they are so funny lmao. also they complete the psychicshipping love square
Tumblr media
(^the psychicshipping love square. pink line between names means those two characters are dating, in love, married, etc.) so ofc i love them. as mentioned, i think they’re very funny (a common trait of a lot of the ships i like) and i think saiki could fix him (/j). not much to say since they are my head empty ship but yeah i like me some torisai
kubokai. do i even need to explain?? like torisai there’s not much i really feel i need to say about them but like. who doesn’t like kubokai? these two could not go an episode without doing something gay and we love them for that. not to mention the piles upon piles of content for them. closing thoughts: ofc i like kubokai, who doesn’t like kubokai?
nendou x hairo. HELL YEAH BABYY!! <- my reaction when i see a post about them. underrated as hell, just like how these two are as characters. they’re my sillies. the silliest gay couple ever. aso shuichi agrees trust me. also that chapter where they got mistaken for a couple was so fucking funny. it’s a shame like no one knows about it since it’s basically softcore in some parts so it didn’t get animated
S - terusai and aichiyo. MY FAVS! i eat breathe and live on this. i have a current pintrest board of these ships because i love them so much.
aichiyo. give me more aichiyo content, NOW. aichiyo is seriously my favorite aiura ship, and i look it up on this godforsaken website, and you know what i find? LIKE THREE POSTS. THREE. THATS BASICALLY NOTHINGGG. and there’s not really a lot of fics ive found about them either (if you have recommendations i want them. please). that episode where they interacted was so gay it outshined nearly everything else. like- they’re so in love!! *shakes you* listen to me damnit!! they love each other!! they’re just so adorable i don’t know what you want me to say. look at them LOOK AT THEMMMM
Tumblr media
(^made by @/wowneh_toon on twitter) closing thoughts: they make me feral
terusai (ending with this one instead of going in order because they are my number one favs out of any saiki k ship to have ever been concocted). AAAAAHH!!!!!! I LOVE THESE TWO SO MUCHH!!!! terusai is the kind of ship that grows on you the longer you’re a fan of the show, and now it’s my straight up comfort ship. anyone who disagrees is WRONG this whole fandom is WRONG and im not afraid to say that. if you don’t like them at least queerplatonically i think your takes are immature and stupid and im blocking you. terusai is perfect for a fluffy future au where teruhashi is the breadwinner and saiki is her housewife. infinity/10 best romance ever written no complaints. there’s so many terusai moments and chapters (remember when teruhashi was about to confess to him as kuriko and he was blushing???like??? how could anyone see that shit and still think he genuinely hates her… i know i sound so mean here but idc im so so tired of this fandom and the absolute DISRESPECT terusai goes through on a daily basis) thank you aso shuichi for gifting the world with teruhashi and terusai. closing thoughts: i love them and if you don’t i do NOT want to hear about it. id fight the whole fandom over them if i had to im not kidding.
phew that was a lot of writing. i hope you enjoyed my ramblings because all of these came from deep within my heart. also my opinions are all cosmic truths so if you disagree then i guess we’ll just have to both live with you being wrong 🤷

11. What pairing/character/subject did you create the most for this year?
23. What WIP(s) are you taking into next year with you?
28. Did you learn anything about your art/process/style this year?
Hi Rowan!! Thank you for asking! :D
Tis the prompt list
11. What pairing/character/subject did you create the most for this year?
Tumblr media
Second place goes to the science bros of course, the first it's here! Aisling is a strong first, it's been... A rough year (full of great things and new friends I am very grateful for, but eh), and she was just the happy-go-lucky character I needed. Thematically, it's a long sort of "Enjoy what you have even if everything else sucks".
23. What WIP(s) are you taking into next year with you?
Gifts I didn't finish in time. Maybe one less because I'm at a good point. A discarded sketch for an ongoing project that I like and want to do anyway for me. I have one original story to rewrite or decide to scratch/give to an author better fit than me for it (I LOVE that story and the characters... I do not think I'm the right person to tell it, lately. Maybe it's seasonal depression, I'm trying to rewrite it after more research but I'm a little disheartened and don't know what to do).
Dragon Age wise, this is my folder of unfinished things:
Tumblr media
(Other's is a folder with drawings of my characters by other people, I keep it on my pc for rainy days <3)
28. Did you learn anything about your art/process/style this year?
That colouring-wise, for me it's either fully graphic design and blocky, or very textured. Cell shade isn't for me and I do not like it on my style. That it's true that top tier art supplies don't make you a good artist, but they do help you getting the process faster and easier. That I may not like orange all that much, but it leads to nice results in art. *begrudgingly* I can colour a full comic! :D (and I still hate Anime Ace as a font. It's stronger than me, I'm sorry, I just think it's ugly and I won't use it.) Oh. And I half-learnt to draw horses (half because they're difficult and their anatomy is terribly weird HOW ARE THEY STANDING)

Ooo wait are your thoughts on the two boboiboy movies?
Wah, Nice one!
I've had nostalgic memories when I rewatched movie 1. Particularly because it was the last entry I followed before I went on hiatus. ... 8 years ago I think?
Whereas I watched the second one during my marathon session this year.
Due to 'my messed-up order of watching' this series, I ended up knowing big spoilers about The movie 2 and I forced to give up my 'anti-spoiler' act before I watched it. Kinda of a bummer for the general view, but you know what? It made the scene more fascinating to watch!
"Oh this is Retak'ka? THE Retak'ka?"
"No wonder why Adudu is so into martial arts now."
"So that's how Ice got his bow eh?"
"Oh Fu-Yes! The debut of Fusion Elementals!!!!"
ehem.
From a general technical standpoint, they stepped up their game drastically. Of course, it's for movies after all. They went bold for expanding the areas, improving the graphics, increasing action scenes, and also adding more music as well.
At the same time, they also upgrade Boboiboy and Kokotiam gang's power so it's making it a 'bit' op for the sake of spectacle. It's not that bad in a negative way, I understand that because the enemies themselves were hella strong as shit. (the first one used a black hole and the second one used all-in-one power hunger fest that could also destroy the galaxy. Logically the earth's supposed to be gone by now :/).
I loved what they did to the lighting and hue for both movies. it's like watching smash bros ultimate but in the movies(weird reference I know but hope you get the idea :/)
The details! Holy- IT'S SO PRETTY~~~
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
ehem.
Both of them were also establishing the expansion power of elementals and what they can do about it. The first one was the fight with all elementals showcased and the second one was the alternative way of fighting by combining two elementals.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Alsoooo both finally managed to properly introduce the one and only .... Boboiboy Hatless! :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'd say they had a fair share of hiding it perfectly well. Cleverly teasing the audience to grasp 'Why the hell do they keep hiding his hair with that particular angle?' Because... If I'm not wrong, Boboiboy was one of the characters that falls in the same category with Upin&Ipin: limiting the haircut for animation efficiency during the first production.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So when his hat does let off, It is always an impeccable scene to watch. That trick never fails to amaze me. (like Professor Layton's hat case :3)
Now I wonder how much screen time his hat is off for the movie 3? I'm sure it takes a lot more than the previous one since his 3rd tier is pure hat off(and dyed hair).
If I want to say from my opinion. Movie 1 has its standout over Movie 2 and vice versa. Both have ups & downs yet they are equivalent to each other. For instance: the timing to add their theme song was a bit out of place in movie 1 so the latter fixed that, whereas the Fang and Ying banter in their language was lacking in movie 2 when the former had this iconic scene (sound on recommend) :]
Oh speaking of Music, my god their theme songs are epi~~~c
I remember how hyped I was when one of my fav local band, D'masiv, created a credits song for Movie 1 AND Galaxy season 1. But heck all movie themes in order are wholesome af!!! 'Masih Disini' - 'Dibawah Langit yang Sama' - 'Fire & Water' are in my repeat playlist recently. So overwhelming that I actually cried? The montage during Fire & Water played was not a sad moment but heck I cried because it's soo touching for no reason.
Oh yeah, I forgot it's a family movie so they have rights to not make any deaths scene. I can understand why yet I'm still disappointed.
I cried. HARD when I saw Tok Kasa collapsed. It portrayed emphatically well and worked for new characters that was introduced a bit short.
Then, not long after that, we got this
Tumblr media
(I guess they didn't want to do another httyd 2 moment. It's too painful for kids to watch)
So... There's my review. Honestly I don't know what goes on for movie 3. It could be anything after season 2. But if I may guess...
It's between father and son now...

You sighed leaning forward on the edge of the pool as you sipped your drink, light chatter sounding in the lounge right behind you, your housemates were scattered around, some on the lounge couch, others on the beach chairs beside the pool and the rest sitting with their legs dipped into the pool. You were at the edge, away from them as you took in the view of the beach from second layer of the three tier pool.
Your palm holding up your head as you thought about the fallout you had with your chosen partner for the first week. You both were actually really cool with each other...well you weren't really sure about him, he was stoic, strict and older, it gave him this sexy but mature sugar daddy vibe; as he was the oldest out of all of them.
You both barely talked only doing your daily partner tasks or challenges and chilling on beach chairs under the palm trees. Not that he wasn't interested in you. He was, very much so. He loved the innocence and naive feel you gave off; with you being the youngest, it made him feel like he was in control but he as tempted as he was he wasn't willing to leave boa; a potential love interest, for you.
When you noticed his hesitance you decided to talk to him about it but it seemed he wasn't willing to talk after you touched a major sour spot in him for someone who doesn't know him well, cause the next thing you know he's walking away from you leaving you to sulk in the empty bedroom. You genuinely were interested in him, you actually wanted to find your 'special someone' here since you barely have any luck in finding one outside.
After that incident levi's been ignoring you; only sparing you a glance at housemate challenges and such. The viewers at home find you the most relatable so you have quite the fanbase; when they watched the incident they felt so bad for you and let's not talk of ban who barely talked to you after the sex ban. men are scum.
They watched as you sipped your smoothie in the background out of the view of the other housemates, you looked so sullen they wished someone, anyone would talk to you- "Hey! You alright?" And their prayers were answered. There he was the Brazilian hottie almost everyone have been eyeing both in and out of the show.
Monkey D. Luffy, this spanish speaking man has been snatching and winning hearts all around the world with his cute and adorable antics, drawing both aww's and coos from the audience with his smile, laugh and funny bromance with his best friends Uzumaki Naruto and Natsu Igneel; all known as the 'sunshine trio'. His personality wasn't the only eye-catching feature of his, he had a banging bod too.
He's a hottie with an eight pac, tall slim build, an x-marked scar on his chest and two-stitched scar under his left eye; a backstory people are dying to know about. You both had never actually talked before only a brief name sharing during the gathering and that was all. So it was quite shocking when him of all people came to talk to you.
"Uh? Hello?" You snapped out of your suprised stupor and stuttered a 'I'm fine.' Before turning bavk to the view. "Are you gonna eat that?" Ah so that's why he was here; the viewers at home deadpanned. You looked at what he was pointing at. Turns out you brought dessert but you were in no mood to eat it so you guess you'll give it to him. "Eh, sure. I wasn't planning on eating it anyways."
You pushed the cake to him making sure it didn't fall into the water. "Alright! Thanks!" He beamed gulping the cake whole before laughing. You stared wide eyed at him, not sure whether you were flustered because he swallowed the damn thing whole without chewing or the fact that his smile and laughter was the sweetest thing you've ever seen or heard. Ah whipped already, welcome to the club; the audience sighed.
"Shishishi! That's better! You should smile more. It's beautiful." Your face heated up at his compliment, you didn't even know you were smiling, guess he was contagious. "You seemed so down earlier, cariña [sweetheart]. You sure you ok?" His accent tickling your ears and sending serotonin straight to your brain when he tried not to make it obvious. What a cutie. "Oh did i? Sorry it's just..." You sighed once more playing with the straw in your cup.
"It's that pendejo [asshole] isn't it? Should i go beat him up? I'll beat him up just for you!" He declared, demonstrating by jabbing and punching at the air. Then suddenly his heart jumped, his eyes growing wide, warmth filling the tips of his ears and cheeks at the sound of your sweet laughter. Looking clearly at you right now you were attractive. The sunset rays coating your brown skin, your glossed and plump lips catching his attention at it's upwards curve.
Your beige bandage bikini fitting snuggly around your body bringing out your curves and skin colour, your hair in an up-do, strands of it framing your face. Your adorable big brown eyes covered by your eyelids due to how hard you were laughing. You were so beautiful. How didn't he notice you before, how couldn't he notice such a gorgeous and ethereal being in his midst.
He felt his heart jump to his throat when your palm brushed his shoulder, the organ hammering faster when you looked up at him with those alluring browns of yours. Don't worry dude we felt the same but back of the line!; the viewers cooed then roared, they couldn't blame the man for falling hard and fast for their beautiful y/n. She was a goddess after all.
"Pfft- your funny! I-I'm Y/n l/n call me y/n." You beamed feeling your mood lift at his demonstration. You liked him he was...different, he was nice. "Nice to meet you! I'm Monkey D. Luffy, the man who made you laugh, don't ever forget!" He smiled softly at you rubbing his neck, his strawhat; which you just noticed, shuffling with every movement of his hand. "Ok 'the man that made me laugh' or 'Monkey D. Luffy, which one am i calling you?" You teased.
"L-Luffy, call me luffy." He chuckled, his ears taking a red tint at the way his full name rolled off your tongue; you didn't notice because of his dark hair covering it. "Well then luffy, what are you doing here?" Mierda [shit], say my name again. He internally groaned before his brows rose in confusion. "Here? Like in the pool?" You giggled, taking in his cute confused expression. "No silly, i mean in the show." He smiled at your cute giggle, joining you to watch the sunset before answering.
"Well my brothers kinda forced me, something about 'you'll never get married if all you do is run around and eat.' I was confused at first." He sighed ruffling his locks in frustration. You stretched your hand hesitating before rubbing his back, hoping to ease him a little. Little did you know he appreciated the gesture, loving the feeling of your soft and warm skin against his.
"It's ok if you don't wanna talk about it." You assured him running your hands up and his back soothingly. "No, it's ok." He exhaled before continuing. "My familia has this huge chain company all around the world and stuff, my brothers have a part they play and they don't need to get married inorder to get shit done." You nodded and he took it as a sign to continue.
"I was pissed until gramps explained they were giving the company to me." Your eye widened. "And obviously if i can't handle it i can fall back on my brothers but then i realised they weren't telling me to get married because of the company but for me. They wanted someone who would support me during the bad and good days, someone who would be with me through thick and thin, i guess." He explained, from his expression you could tell he was happy with the heartfelt thought from his family.
"T-That's uh- wow! i hope you find someone, luffy." You smiled dropping your hands from his back. He smiled back at you before asking you the same question. "How about you? Why are you here." You laughed. "Ha ha! What's that supposed to mean!" He laughed with you. "I mean- ¡Dios mío! [My God] look at you, you're gorgeous!" Your face heated up as you lifted yourself off of the edge to hit his chest with your fist. "Stop t-that!" He caught your fist pulling you closer and whispering. "I mean it."
"You could have anything and anyone you wanted." He said playing with your hands in his. "Well... I couldn't and that's why I'm here actually." You confessed looking down in embarrassment. "That's good." You lifted your head, looking at him in question. "Leave the blind to their vices and let's those with eyes appreciate such view, but i can't lie I've been blind this whole time too, Perdóname [Forgive me]." And that ladies and gentlemen was how luffy won not only your heart but the audience over too. God when?! they cried but they shipped it, they shipped it so hard that both you and luffy became top trending on every platform.
That cute scene become so popular that people started to watch the show just because of it. When the votes came in for couple of the week, you and luffy came in first. The director of the show knew this show was going to be a big hit so they suggested making luffy and you partners in the coming week. To them you were the golden goose and they were definitely gonna get golden eggs if they kept the chemistry between you both alive.
Not that they need to worry, you and luffy were definitely going to go strong, everyone knew it. The heartfelt conversation you both had gave the viewers not only hope but set their heart alight. Not just them but luffy's family too. Yes whitebeard and his sons gather together in their large living room on weekends to watch their last born find love and boy were they happy. Although watching him get down and dirty will always be a shock to them.

Mit den Statuswerten aus dem Quiz ließe sich zum Beispiel wizard (Magier*in) spielen. Bei denen hängt die Stärke ihrer Zauber (und damit der Großteil dessen, was sie tun) vom Intelligenzwert ab und 17 (plus Boni, die es durch die gespielte Spezies gibt) ist ein richtig guter Start. Ein bisschen schwierig könnte der Konstitutionswert von unter 10 werden, denn das bedeutet einen Malus auf Konstitutions(rettungs)würfe (z. B. Würfe, um Konzentration bei einigen bestimmten Zaubern aufrechtzuerhalten, oder um Vergiftungen etc. zu widerstehen) und auch verringerte Lebenspunkte, die bei Magier*innen eh schon gering sind.
Alternativ hängt bei Kleriker*innen das meiste von Weisheit ab und die haben mehr Lebenspunkte und können zumindest etwas Rüstung tragen, sodass du mit diesen Werten dann vielleicht nicht ganz so schnell außer Gefecht gesetzt würdest. Druid*innen definieren sich auch am meisten über Weisheit (d.h. wie erfolgreich sie spielmechanisch sind, hat viel, aber natürlich LÄNGST NICHT alles mit einem hohen Wert da zu tun) und da ließen sich wenige Lebenspunkte z. B. durch Tiergestalt kompensieren.
Waldläufer*innen und Mönche profitieren von sowohl einem hohen Weisheits- als auch einem hohen Geschicklichkeitswert. Der Geschicklichkeitswert bestimmt auch (mit) die Rüstungsklasse, d. h. wie einfach der Charakter zu treffen ist.
Kommt ein bisschen darauf an, ob du lieber nur zaubern (Magier*in), zaubern und mit Waffen kämpfen (Kleriker*in, Druid*in), nur mit Waffen oder unbewaffnet (Mönch) kämpfen möchtest, ein Tier werden willst (Druid*in)und eine tierische Begleitung mitnehmen möchtest (Waldläufer*in) (mal vereinfacht).
Wenn du noch mehr Fragen hast, antworte ich auch gern spezifischer :D
Nachtrag: Ich hatte mal wieder vergessen, dass die Klasse artificer existiert (erfindet und bastelt mit Magie). Die definiert sich auch erstmal über den Intelligenzwert. Im Gegensatz zum wizard kann die Klasse aber Rüstung und Schilde tragen, was hilfreich ist! und ist außerdem "geübt" in Konstitutionsrettungswürfen, was hilft, einen niedrigen Konstitutionswert auszugleichen. Das könnte also auch ganz gut zu den Werten aus dem Quiz passen!
Omg wie cool ist das, danke! Ich glaube davon klingt Druide am meisten nach etwas, mit dem ich mich persönlich identifizieren würde (Zaubern und mit Waffen und Tiergestalt! und halt sicher auch naturverbunden, so vom Fluff her). Entsprechend klingt auch Waldläufer gut, Aragorn als Streicher war schließlich einer meiner Kindheitshelden, aber in Systemen mit Magie mag ich eigentlich fast immer Magie ganz gerne. Trotzdem, tierischer Begleiter klingt auch gut (habe ich ja irl auch xD) und in einer Fantasywelt hätte ich bestimmt auch eine höhere Dex, ich bin nicht so fit wie ich sein könnte wenn ich keinen Bürojob hätte, aber habe ne ganz gute Koordination. Artificer finde ich in Spielsystemen immer interessant, aber passt wahrscheinlich nicht sooo gut zu mir.
Gehen wir mal von Druide aus, was für eine Spezies würdest du mir empfehlen? :D Und bei einem Waldläufer?

Golden Son tier list + review! :D
Tumblr media
These books are so fucking good, I want to continue with book 3 already. I have never read books this quickly, but DAMN that was good. You can see my live thoughts while I was reading from the tag "#sam flynn reads red rising", but here are my post reading thoughts below the cut.
Characters: 9/10, everyone served their purpose well and was great except for Antonia, who SOMEHOW still disappointed me.
Plot: 9/10, I have no clue if there was anything for me to complain about.
Personal Enjoyment: 10/10, I was unfortunately spoiled to 2 events within the book before I started reading, but I had so much fun regardless. I wish I had come in 100% blind :(
I have NO CLUE where to start. I guess I'll start with Fitchner. His identity as the founder of Ares was no secret to me when I came into the book, I strayed too far and accidentally got myself spoiled. Despite that, the reveal was still fucking brilliant. I'm surprised by how far he shot up in my tier list, from close to the bottom to being top 5. Wish he didn't die though 😭
Another character that shot pretty dramatically up the tier list was the Jackal. I knew he was gonna betray Darrow from the start based on intuition (thankfully not from spoilers) but DAMN HE DIDNT HAVE TO DO ALL THAT 😭 He's so sociopathic, I love that. I am no longer disappointed by him, and are excited to see what this little fucker has in store next! (Unlike with Antonia. Maybe I hyped myself up too highly for her, I expected her to play a larger role in everything but she feels so much like a pawn, it's embarrassing. She is my unironic least favorite character because of how plain disappointed I am in her, and it's not a fun hatred, it's a "oh she is here again. will she do anythin- nope. okay.")
Roque. Sweet Roque. I thought you were eh in the first book, just a cool voice for darrow to talk to I guess. But after the ending, fuck you 😍 I got spoiled by his betrayal, but honestly I saw his betrayal coming when Darrow kept being unable to reconcile with him. Either that or Roque dies, but uhhhhh I got spoiled anyways so it was going to be the latter. yeah I wish he had died instead of this! 🥰 but honestly and to be fair, yeah Darrow kind of deserved some of it for being such an ass of a friend, but:
Tumblr media
Cassius went down the tier list because the gala fight was AMAZING but he doesn't show up after that again until the end, and that made me feel sort of hesitant? BUT HE IS CLEARLY STILL BEING SET UP FOR THE FUTURE SO HE BETTER NOT PULL AN ANTONIA AND DO NOTHING BUT BE A PAWN.
Sevro is half red, cool! I am so glad he's still such a lovable scamp. I got excited every time he showed up, I love him.
Darrow is still an amazing protagonist, and I am so glad we are past his angsty "I miss my wife" phase, but I can guarantee I will see more of it after the ending. At least I will be mentally prepared for the whump this time.
Mustang is at her prime here. The scene with her in Lykos was so... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH i fucking hope she returns for darrow because these two are awesome and they deserve all the happiness.
Oh yeah, the scene where they revisit Lykos? As I said in a previous post, it watered my crops and cleansed my skin. I am so glad we finally got to catch up with Darrow's family. AND HE GOT TO HUG HIS MOM AAAAAAAAAA- I hoped we would see Darrow talk with the rest of his family, but just everything about this was comfort enough. Rest in peace uncle Narol though. 😥 Even if the meeting with darrow and his mom was cut abruptly short by Kieran's kids, but my heart... 🥹
Ragnar spawns in and just gets to business, and I love him. I love stories where people raised for only one thing learn to break free of their mold (that's why i was so interested in this series in the first place). I think it's so iconic that every time he speaks, the text becomes bold, that instantly endeared me to him somehow.
Victra was good, but her insistence on Darrow was weird. Could be because I'm a hard Darrow × Mustang shipper.
That's all the characters I feel like talking about. Onto other things like the plot! The plot was SO much better than the first book. We're finally out of that fuckass academy and doing actual rebelling finally! I don't know what else to say, the twists and the plots were phenomenal. The fight scenes here are even better than the ones in the first book. Overall, y'all weren't kidding when people said book 1 was the weakest of the series because I am flabberghasted by how good this book is.
I don't know what else to say, all of this has just been rambling. Darrow better break those god damn chains at the end of it all.

10. Lily - It works, but she is like the 8000th Mexican fighter with a similar outfit so - Outfit 2 > Outfit 1 > Outfit 3
11. Ryu - I love that he wears the jacket Chun-Li got for him / normal clothes but I think he over accessorized a bit - Outfit 3 > Outfit 2 > Outfit 1
12. Kimberly - I love that we continue with the African American meets ninja aesthetic but I feel like the turquoise afro is a bit much, I'd prefer it if it was her natural colour - Outfit 2 > Outfit 3 > Outfit 1

13. Dhalsim - This is so out of character but I actually like it, I just don't like it more than the previous ones. Hipster Dhalsim is a statement alright - Outfit 3 > Outfit 1 > Outfit 2
14. Manon - Yes of course the French fighter gets a period costume as well. Boring - Outfit 2 > Outfit 1 > Outfit 3

15. Zangief - Like with Dhalsim, this is so out of character. I don't hate it but I don't love it either - Outfit 3 > Outfit 1 > Outfit 2
16. JP - I guess this is his "cult leader" outfit or whatever that we see him wear in various story concept art. I don't know how I feel about it - Outfit 2 > Outfit 1 > Outfit 3
17. Ken - ...Capcom seems to be in a constant need to make Ken look as ugly as possible since SFIV, I don't know what he did to them - Outfit 1 > Outfit 2 > Outfit 3
18. E. Honda - This does fit Honda, because it is ridiculously busy but eh, it's a bit whatever - Outfit 2 > Outfit 3 > Outfit 2
