#HE IS SIMPLY INSANE

[theitaliansalad]

spoilers for that scene in 1x10 under the cut.

so. that scene. the choking “kink” scene. 

Daemon doesn’t grab Rhaenyra by the neck because he doesn’t love her or because he wants to hurt her. he grabs her by the neck because Daemon is a fucked up human being. he’s violent and chaotic and messy. he is incapable of dealing with his own emotions. he has no control over himself.  

he acts insane throughout the whole episode. Rhaenyra herself says so. he tries to keep his mind occupied at all times, preparing for war, because if he lets himself feel, he’s gonna crumble. 

it’s not that he doesn’t feel. it’s that he feels too much and doesn’t know what do to about it. 

he grabs her by the neck because in the mist of grief and anger and desperation, he just found out that the brother he loved so dearly and that he so insistently tried to protect - Viserys, his big brother, he’s never trusted him. never. never had any intention of trusting him. not once. not at all. 

Daemon is the kind of person who kills his wife by smashing her head with a rock. 

so he grabs Rhaenyra by the neck. and she kind of laughs when she realises that Daemon doesn’t know. he does not know because his own brother kept their family secret from him. 

Daemon grabs her by the neck but it’s not about Rhaenyra and Daemon as a couple. 

it’s not about Rhaenyra at all.

Throwing bio facts into people's ask inboxes

Adélie penguins build their nests out of rocks, and will steal rocks from other adélie's nest to build theirs if they can't find good ones.

Penguins were my class' assigned animal in 2nd year of primary school, it was the year I became obsessed with them, thank you for the penguin fact I love it

I was gonna make a joke with the blorbos but remembered wan! already did it once so I looked it up and uh

they made Chuuya a whole 10cm (~4in) shorter here than in his intro page in volume 6, which says he's 160cm, but APPARENTLY the 3rd official guidebook ALSO says he's 150cm and I need someone to clear that up right now

#realistically it's really 160cm because harukawa draws him one head shorter than dazai and that should be around 20cm #30cm is simply too much i believe (that's a whole 12 inches) #perhaps the 150cm is for when he was 15 i did go insane once and compared his heights in the anime next to kouyou and mori #it was about half a head's difference from memory #also the 3rd guidebook is from the 3rd season which has the 15 episodes #it's still very funny #ask answered #not art

dunmeshi modern labru au where Kabru wants to try fromsoft games to understand why they’re so popular.

he gives elden ring a shot and surprise he gets fucking rolled. can’t get past tree sentinel, tries to fight Margit at level 15, put all his stats in intelligence and not enough dex, hasn’t even found a proper staff, picked warrior as his starting class.

he’s ready to uninstall but he paid full price for this game, he’s at least gonna defeat one boss goddammit. so he tries summoning players for aid and just his luck, he summons cooperator WolfChimeraWyvern.

and this cooperator is SO GOOD, he solos Margit without getting hit, and Kabru is just. in awe. so he adds him as a friend.

and that’s how he meets Laios, expert on all things fromsoft (has literally read every item description, knows the most obscure lore by heart, don’t ask him how many hours he’s played, he has all the platinums)

#drops to my knees from cringe #i’m … so Laois in this au #i have the elden ring and bloodborne platinum ): #the only reason i don’t have the platinum for the other games is that i am an adult with a job and i simply do not have time #but consider that Kabru would be too busy at the club #he’d be so bad at these games #he wouldn’t like that he’s bad at something tho so he’d try and try and keep failing lol #and Laios fromsoft boss expert has absolutely no trouble reading the gameplay #he helps other players by soloing Malenia for fun #welcome to my insane mind palace #wasabi rambles #labru #laios touden #kabru of utaya #the funny thing about all of this is that i told a friend a few months ago ‘idk i’m just not that into fantasy’ #🤡 #one thing about me #i will lie about gameplay hours 😭 #elden ring #dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #omg … Laios you would love Blaidd’s armour set

#trolls #trolls band together #trolls floyd #this design has me frothing at the mouth I am so in love with him #simply just a little guy #thinking about what he was doing during his solo career is fun #HIM BEING EMO MEANS SO MUCH TO ME YOU DONT UNDERSTAND #also. saw someone on twt point out how his ears are downturned #and the only other troll with downturned ears is branch #which only happened when he went gray #which means that Floyd could’ve potentially gone grey at some point #and that thought has me going crazy insane currently

Top 5 Darrow Cassius Heterosexual Moments™️ from light bringer

5. Flirting over swordplay (not a euphemism)

4. Married disapproval

3. Tending to the homies wounds

2. Whatever the hell this was

1. They’re literally honeymooning. Cassius and Virginia are going to fight each other for Darrow’s hand. She literally had his baby and is married to him and I’m still not sure she’s winning.

#red rising #light bringer #light bringer spoilers #darrow of lykos #cassius au bellona #Darrow x Cassius #I genuinely had to prune this list to get it to a top 5. they’re insane. #Darrow has grown so much from the mines but he simply cannot remove the heteronormative blinders #see also: his conversation with sevro about valdir #I think cassius was genuinely shooting his shot the entire time they were aboard the Archimedes and Darrow just fully didn’t notice #he’s like ‘huh cassius keeps showing up in my bedroom fully nude. little weird but I suppose it is his ship’

Ik we stevetonies love our ‘Steve pulling Tony out of a bender in the workshop’ trope but me? I LOOOOVE the other way round. A bad mission and Steve loses someone - he tried to save them but it was too late, he couldn’t get there in time. And post-mission he just holes himself up in the gym and stays there. For days. Working himself to exhaustion just so he can shave half a second off his sprint (half a second and that person would be alive), punching bag after bag until his hands are bloody and raw.

Tony is the only one who can get through to him like this. It’s only his voice that can make Steve pause, come back to himself. Sometimes Tony has to actively stand in front of whatever it is Steve’s attacking, which absolutely infuriates him, but damn if it isn’t effective in a way only Tony no-thought-to-his-own-self-preservation Stark could be. And Tony is equally as infuriated that steve is insisting on doing this to himself, but even though his tone is angry, his touch against Steve’s knuckles is impossibly soft.

He’ll drag Steve back up to the land of the living. Put him in the shower and clean him off, freshen him up, make him feel human again. Steve will already be healing, of course, but Tony still tends and bandages his hands - attentive to the finest detail, devoting every part of his mind to just making Steve feel a little bit better.

They don’t talk much throughout this. God knows Tony’s tried it before, but Steve is never in the headspace for it, and Tony never says the right thing anyway. But he’s there.

He runs his fingers over the back of Steve’s palms. Up his forearms. He strokes the sharp curve of Steve’s neck, settling against the quick pulse. Steve’s face is blank, but Tony is always surprisingly patient with him. He waits.

“I’m fine,” Steve will say every time, while his face will say the opposite.

“You’re an idiot,” Tony will respond. “I’m locking you out of the gym.”

He won’t. Steve needs it, even if it’s unhealthy, even if it’s agonising for Tony to watch. This is just how they get through.

But Steve will see the way Tony is looking at him- distressed, angry, worried - and it’ll break through the fog. The thing that always takes priority over everything is Tony, and even though Steve’s brain is screaming at him to get right back to it, he just can’t put it above Tony’s well-being. He couldn’t ever do that.

“I Guess I can take a break now.”

#stevetony #Steve Rogers #tony stark #um. merciless killing machine Steve tearing apart punching bags in the gym. #until Tony walks in and simply. steps right in front of the line of fire. totally fearless. #not even FLINCHING when Steve’s fist flies toward his face because he knows Steve will stop before it lands. #AND IT DRIVES STEVE FUCKINF CRAZYYYYY BECAUSE ITS SO DANGEROUS DONT FUCKING DO THAT JESUS #and Tony’s just like. okay. anyways now I have your attention can you PLEASE get the hell out of here’ etc etc etc IM INSANE FOR THIS #LOVE IT. GIVE ME ALL THE FICS.

Only thing I am ignoring from the new show is the ghoul lore retcon. Needing medicine to not turn feral erases TONS of fun ghoul opportunities [remember the ghoul kid locked in a fridge for 200 years?] And sweeps aside a decade of amazing theories for a, let's be real, painfully simply and boring zombie retcon

#fallout #they also buffed their survivability by making them able to instantly regenerate i suppose #but the drugs to not turn feral feels cheap to me #i thought feralness came with insanity #or excess raditation #or hella drugs or simply 'dying' #rehashing them into fancy zombies feels cheap and like a foreshadow of a very easy way to knock out cooper #ik he had his no meds jumpscare outside of the super market but #i just know i just know #fallout prime #fallout tv series

Okay… maybe I’ll get roasted but this whole Aeon Phantom Midas whatever thing…. I get why people on either side of the fence are annoyed that either feels entitled to name him. But the arbitrary lines being drawn in the sand are so fucking stupid to me. Call them whatever you want, names aren’t official and no one’s head canon is more valid than anyone else’s. In case anyone wanted to know, I hate the fucking name Swiss and you bet that when he’s in Kilonova I’m gonna call him something else. Why? Cause we all have creative license to do whatever with the absolutely 0 canon lore Ghost has provided. ALSO ! You have some HCs no one else has? Lovely! You call the ghouls by names that no one else uses? Amazing!!!! You don’t agree with the elemental alignment that most people have given them? Spectacular! We have a wonderful opportunity to be extremely creative and I wish that people would embrace it instead instead of arguing over it.

#yes I’m talking about the Twitter post #but also many others I’ve seen in many other places #hearing people say that they won’t read some thing simply because of what he’s called is insane to me #not the twitter op specifically but just the entire thread #and no not anyone in particular #just like the whole thing #I am not mad that Dew is clearly a hybrid and most people don’t see it #<- that is a joke

Carlos using Charles as a stressball

Or: Charles is so used to Carlos absolutely bodying him as a sign of affection that Charles has no reaction to Carlos doing it anymore

#charles leclerc #carlos sainz #charlos #these photos are in rough chronological order look at Charles just giving up hahahha #I want to emphasise that this collection of photographic evidence is SELECTIVE #there are so many more examples of their insanity #at this point charles is like yes Carlos will probably shove his head into my chest at some point in this video #he simply lets Carlos push him out of frame #they make me insane they are insane #formula 1 #Ferrari #scuderia Ferrari #f1

Every instance of Stanley characterization I've found so far (more to be added as i scrounge for more):

- Stanley doesn’t let go of the bucket when you are told to put it into the bucket destroyer when you try to. (Bucket Destroyer Ending)

- Stanley running off from the Narrator + outright defiance via either running or actively trying to leave (Release Date Trailer + Game Awards Trailer)

- Stanley responding directly to the Narrator via shaking his head no. (the Game Awards Trailer)

- Stanley looking at traveling sites in his free time plus the National Geographic magazine on the desk next to the computer (the Game Awards Trailer)

- Any instance of Stanley’s attachment to the bucket (I think about The Escape Pod Ending w/ the bucket specifically for this)

- The notes page from the Indiebox Manual

- Stanley’s imagination coming to life after being left alone (the Infinite Hole Ending)

- Stanley walking through the desert to the memory zone (The Epilogue)

- The countdown ending dialogue where it implies that Stanley asks about his coworkers (The Countdown Ending)

- Stanley patting his leg while waiting for commands to come in (the Ultra Deluxe intro sequence) (he does kick his leg a bit in the 2013 intro sequence)

- The Curator’s narration after you leave the museum (the Museum Ending) (suggested by @/axolotleo)

(I realize these are all a bit of a stretch but it’s fun to find and notice these)

#the stanley parable #tsp #tspud #stanley #crow thoughts #you’re completely allowed to call me insane for this one. because it’s true #sorry I simply refuse to say he’s a blank slate character #going about this kris deltarune style by writing down every speck of info on this guy #I realize all of these are a bit of a stretch but allow me to be indulgent plz #this doesn’t have anything from the original mod btw. still have yet to play it weeps

saints. i'm. thinking about religion and rosekiller. barty who grew up catholic. evan who is an atheist. barty who had 'gay is forbidden' punched into him. but evan looks like that. barty wants him to kill him. fuck him on an altar. get on his knees in front of him and pray. not pray. kill himself in front of him so that evan looks at him. so that evan is the image that haunts him in the afterlife. wants him to convert. wants to burn down his church. or burt it with them in it so that they are together forever, ashes that cannot be seperated by god (or his father). pls tell me you have thoughts.

!! we talked about an au like this here. but firstly i think an essential through-line for barty (in any setting) is that he fundamentally lacks normative guilt and shame. my canon basis for this is how nobody has ever had their personhood more repressed & stifled than he has, yet he never once stopped being unhinged. he was literally brainwashed and kept in wizard psychological torture prison for like 10+ years and STILL was like “this won’t stop me from letting my sparkle shine 🥴” the second he left

i think barty could believe in god but still find a strict religious institution sooooo unserious especially if he was raised in it. it's a game to him... if you tell barty something is forbidden and punish him, he will instantly do that thing 10x harder out of Spite but get more clever about hiding it. he bides his time.

the idea of barty with religious trauma is compelling to me because i think he'd be so rotten inside. he seems so unassumingly pious but on the inside he is corrupt and depraved and sick and DIRTY. and he would want to find something innocent (evan?) and ruin it and would feel absolutely no remorse

#a #reggie is the catholic guilt character that you want #i too wish that were barty but he’s simply too insane #if there’s one thing about him: he doesn’t give a FUUUUCK what his dad says
