SIMON "GHOST" RILEY HEADCANONS
I had these headcanons in mind for a while now and i have no one to talk about cod so here we are.
Tumblr media
................
• I picture him having pretty wild hair, not because he doesn't cut them or anything, but because he cuts them himself.
Not trusting anyone can lead you to ask people not to touch you, Simon defenitely doesn't want people touching him behind his back, where he can't see them, so he prefers to cut his own hair.
• If he is in a relationshin he would definitely seat on the wc while you take a bath.
He would follow you like a little golden retriever and sit there, he doens't mean any harm by it, he doesn't even think about you in an horny way or anything else, he just wants company and loves to hear you speaking while you take care of yourself, so he just sit and casually answer here and there when you ask him something.
● I don't think Simon perceive Ghost as something totally diffrent from Simon.
Having trauma makes you unable to "work correctly" in a kind of way, and Simon can't have himself have a panic attack or anything else in the field. I think Ghost is simply the more collect and calm part of himself and he knows it, Ghost is simply the part he uses when heneed stability and what Ghost rappresent is literally someone who has everything under control, always.
● He drinks, but not that much.
As i said before, he doesn't trust people, and being drunk means that you have to depends on other people to take care of you. He trusts the 141 tf, but he refuses to being in any kind of way in someone's hands, he has to be in control, always, so he has a specific number of drinks he can drink we does, after that is a big no.
● His music taste? Immaculate.
Let's be real here: he is traumatize and he goes by Ghost. Man definitely listen to metal and every single subgenre of it, he loves it and it's the only way he is sure he can still feel emotions outside of anger and fear.
• Not really a man whos love language is physical touch.
He touches you, he does, but his love language is quality time. He loves spending time with his loved one, speaking, cooking, listening to some music or just watching a movie, he love having someone, who he is in love with, around and listening to their voice.
• We are edgy here and we don't wear colors.
Man's whole wardrobe is black, camo, black. He has some things here and there cause people keeps buying it for his bdays, especialky Johnny, but he never wears them. He just look at them and goes: nope.
• Sweet tooth.
God this man LOVES sweet things, chocolate, candies, drinks, he wants them all. Once he found Gaz's secret storage and literally wiped it all, the poor man is still crying about it.
• He doesn't wear his mask to cover his scars.
As i said, he perceive Ghost as the obly part of him that can remains calm enough to do his job. The mask is something that helps him with this, once the mask is on he is not just Simon anymore, he is Ghost and he has everything under control. The scar story? Is just because he doesn't want to explain the truth to anyone.
• He has nighmares and pretty much refuses to sleep until he just pass out.
He is tired, he really is, but he forces himself to stay awake to avoid waking up amd feeling like he is just a step away from death, breathing is impossible to him when he wakes up like that and it leaves him feeling vulnerable for hours. He just prefers to let his body take control when taying awake is too much, this means he wont wake up, mostly.

hello!! I hope you’re having a wonderful day/night ^^ I was wondering if u could write about bakugou x deaf reader? Like bakugou’s mom is HOH (which is why she’s always screaming :0) and bakugou knows sign because of that so he can communicate w deaf reader which surprises them!
simple complication, miscommunication (pro!bakugo x deaf!reader)
wc: 2k
cw/tags: established relationship, story of first meeting, strangers to lovers, implied fem!reader but no specific pronouns used (reader does use makeup), guy being an asshole but it's ok because kats scares him away
note: hi!!!! this is probably one of my favorite (if not THE favorite) prompts i've ever received. i'm actually majoring in deaf studies and focusing on increasing deaf/HOH rep in popular media. SO! i really love this prompt. i'm hearing, so i'm always still learning from the deaf and HOH community and acknowledge that i have a lot more to learn! because of this, this is mainly from kats' perspective because i don't think it's appropriate for me, as a hearing writer, to write from the perspective of a deaf reader. i talked way too much, sorry for the long note, and i hope you like this!!
likes, reblogs, and replies are always appreciated <3
Tumblr media
He can’t remember the last time he was this nervous to see his own mother. 
For the twentieth time, he confirmed that the windows were clear of smudges, the floorboards were as shiny as his Hero Award trophies on the living room shelves, and the wiring on the doorbell light was functioning correctly. Everything was as it should have been. Still, an anxious churning in his gut tells him something is wrong and he throws the front door open without thinking, determinedly jabbing his thumb against the button next to the doorknob. As usual, the bright orange light by the “FRONT DOOR” sign above the hallway flashes once. Everything was working as it should have been, so he couldn’t pinpoint why he felt so nauseous. He tests the door light several more times and completely forgets that you were getting ready in the bathroom. 
When he spots you, you’re wearing his bathrobe and a makeup brush is tucked behind your ear. Your eyebrows furrow in concern of why the door light started flashing an hour early as you peek out from the hallway. He gives you an apologetic look, the corner of his mouth turning down in clear dissatisfaction. 
Sorry. Testing the door light. Your mouth opens into an oh of understanding and you nod, taking note of the subtle ways your boyfriend was trying to hide his nerves. His head appears around the corner of the door when you knock your knuckles against the wall to get his attention. 
You’re gonna break your jaw if you keep it clenched like that. His frown only deepens and he can tell you’re trying not to laugh from the way your eyes sparkle. It’s nice that you’re excited to see Mrs. Bakugo again, but he’s already anticipating the tidal wave of disapproving comments about the new place you recently moved into together. Shut the door, Katsuki. You’re letting the warm air out. He reluctantly obeys, following you down the hallway to the master bathroom and hopping up onto the counter to watch you finish your makeup. He’s careful to sit in a spot where you can sign without having to turn to face him; you catch his eye in the mirror’s reflection and put your brush down with a sigh, raising your eyebrows expectantly. Food done? You already know all his dishes have been done since this morning, but you’re still trying to help him take inventory of the things he doesn’t need to worry about anymore. 
Just need to throw some extra stuff on the salad. I’ll do it before we eat. You nod, returning to tapping a neutral color onto your eyelids when you catch his shoulders sag as he huffs. The makeup brush is carefully set down again and your eyebrows return to their expectant position. 
Wanna tell me why you look so… Your fingers flutter around absentmindedly for a few seconds while you look for the right word. Dejected? 
I’m not dejected. 
Your pouty lip says otherwise, you respond with a small smirk. I’ve loved you long enough to read your body language, no matter how stiff or angry. You scrunch your face up in mock wrath and that finally makes him break the tiniest ghost of a smile. Tell me, please, so I can help you. He shakes his head and you set your mouth in a thin line in light-hearted irritation.
You don’t need to help with anything. My mom can just be a lot sometimes. You know that. You shrug, fondly remembering the first time Katsuki brought you to meet his mother. To your boyfriend’s horror, his mother got so excited to sign that she knocked over her wine glass on three separate occasions. And she really likes you, so she might end up accidentally revealing some embarrassing shit about me. 
That’s what I’m hoping for. You shoot him a wink and Katsuki can feel his face become a little warmer. I’m praying that the woman brings baby photos. His face turns a deeper shade of red and you burst out laughing, your smile a sight that he’d never get tired of. Hey, you rap your knuckles against the marble again and force him to look at you. We’ve seen scarier stuff than your mom. 
At least in those situations, I can blast my way out. 
Sure. But, if you blast your way out of tonight, you’re paying for property repairs. He sticks his tongue out at you defiantly and you copy the gesture, smiling to yourself when he slides off the counter and wraps his arms around your torso, resting his chin where your neck meets your shoulder. Your fingers gently trace his cheekbones and he meets your eyes through the reflection of the mirror. We’ll be fine tonight, Katsuki. I promise. Can’t be any worse than our first meeting, hmm? You feel his chest rumble against your back as he groans, hiding his face in your skin as it heats up again. 
The first time you met Katsuki was a very abnormal case of wrong place, right time. A high-threat crime boss had swiped a political candidate off the street the night before the most important debate of the season, following him as he went out to pick up snacks for his assistants. The candidate was a passionate supporter of public policy protecting the liberties of Pros, and to lose him right before an election would be catastrophic for agencies across the country. To the rest of the city, it was a public emergency; for Katsuki, it was a Tuesday night. 
“Pro on the scene, clear out!” His boots cross the police tape and the cops part the way for him like he was an activated grenade, avoiding his gaze and conveniently finding new tasks that were out of his firing range. Someone from some federal agency approaches him blabbing nonsense about how disastrous this would be if the press arrived and he all but tunes them out, his focus zeroing in on a scene happening just outside of the barricaded perimeter. 
It wasn’t uncommon for policemen to command passing civilians to keep moving, but something about the confrontation he quietly approached felt different. In any other case, the civilians would ask the police about something they weren’t allowed to disclose and then they would leave, maybe sticking around to get their ten seconds on the nightly new segment. You were clearly not like those civilians.
“Hey! I’ve got a job to do, so you better get the hell out of here or I’m gonna charge you for disturbing a crime scene!” The cop was screaming at you to the point where his voice broke and you didn’t even flinch, continuing to stare daggers into him from pure frustration. He tries to yell again and you cut him off with a series of ridiculously exaggerated gestures, looking at the policeman like he was dumb as rocks. “I don’t have time for this, and I don’t know what the fuck you’re saying!” But Katsuki does. 
“Oi!” The cop doesn’t hear him as he storms across the concrete, palms crackling. 
“Fuckin’ crazy–” You look ready to bite off the accusatory finger the cop points in your face when a strong gloved hand wraps around the asshole’s wrist, unceremoniously shoving him out of the way to listen to you himself. “Who the fuck–”
“Get lost, fuckface, and take the uselessness with you,” Katsuki seethes, putting just enough heat into his hands for the guy to yelp and scurry away. He turns around to find a scowl intense enough to rival his own and he takes a deep breath, wordlessly encouraging you to take one too. You watch with caution as he tugs his gloves off and stuffs them in his belt. Sorry about him, he signs and you blink, taken aback. These kinds of scenes make everyone on edge more on edge. 
You know sign?
My mom, she’s hard of hearing. Growing up, she taught me sign as a second language. You nod, still eyeing him a little suspiciously. I need to get back to work, but I just want to apologize for him again. You look like you’re about to respond but he looks down, fishing through a pouch of his belt and pulling out a crumpled slip of paper. This is some coupon I got a while back from a business we saved. Buy yourself a coffee. You take the ripped rectangle with a look of disgust and shock and he nods politely, turning to leave. Before he’s even one step away, he finds himself being yanked backward by the collar of his shirt, readying his Quirk to fire on pure instinct and whirling to stare you down like a bull facing a matador. His palm is scorching against your skin when he grabs your wrist, but you don’t relent. What the fuck are you doing? 
I know where they took him. Give me a map and a marker. His eyes widen and he loosens his grip but doesn’t let go, gently guiding you around the barricade, through the crowds of cops, and into the detectives’ truck. He pushes past the people surrounding the table and pulls up a digital map of the city on the touchscreen. 
Everything’s electronic now, so use this as your map, he explains and you nod in understanding, hesitantly tapping a finger on the screen and receiving a bombardment of paragraphs about crimes in the area. Dynamight’s hand moves up and down at the edge of your vision and you look up, still unsure how you’re supposed to use such a complicated piece of technology. I know. It’s over-engineered and stupid. Do you know the exact address where they took him? You shake your head and he grimaces, running a hand through his hair.
I don’t know the address, but I know the directions of how to get there. On this map, where’s the convenience store? His pointer and index finger swipe around the screen, spreading out as he zooms in on the 2D representation of the site where the candidate was taken. You copy his actions and zoom out slightly again, making sure to remember which rectangle was the convenience store. Is there a way to draw on this? Dynamight pushes a button on the edge of the table and a marker pops out. Cool.
It’s the only cool function this thing has. Everything else just makes my job harder, he signs and swears he can see the slightest smile on your face while he hands you the marker. Miraculously, you’re able to copy the navigation route you saw on one of the thug’s phones while you waited in line at the convenience store. You circle the building in bright pink and the Pro wastes no time, barking out orders to surrounding cops and re-donning his gauntlets and one glove. His ungloved hand helps you down from the truck and he pulls you aside, away from the commotion of the crime scene. Do you live near here? 
A few blocks down, yes. He fishes around a pouch on his belt again and retrieves a black ballpoint pen, handing it to you despite your obvious confusion. 
Write down your address, he signs and he holds out the back of his ungloved hand to you. 
Why? 
I’ll come find you after we make the arrests. Maybe you can let me buy you a coffee. A smirk appears on your lips and Katsuki finds his face heating up. 
Is it gonna be with the tattered coupon? He rolls his eyes and you laugh, a sound that he finds he wants to hear again and again. You later explain to Katsuki and the detectives that you were questioning why the guy in front of you had his brightness so high, and the visual eavesdropping was purely by accident. Everything following the investigation felt like happy little accidents, too: Dynamight showing up at your door one night with two coffees and the last muffin the cafe had, Bakugo crashing onto your apartment’s fire escape after a particularly dangerous operation, Katsuki asking you out to dinner officially for the first time, his mother spilling her wine several times the first time she met you. 
You knew you were in for a lifetime of more accidents when Mrs. Bakugo burst through the door fifteen minutes early, excitedly asking what venues you were looking at for your upcoming wedding.

Part 2: F1 Drivers as Fathers Headcanons
A/N: Not edited.
Tumblr media
✧*̥˚ Part two: includes Lando & Oscar*̥˚✧
AN: Not edited.
Tumblr media
Lando Norris ⋆ ˚。⋆୨୧˚
A goofy dad for sure. Like always joking around and messing with the kids. Would also be the type of dad to agree with random stuff, like bringing an animal home, to buying a stupid toy.
Honestly, it's probably not him saying yes because he wants to keep them happy (even though it's a part of it), but mainly because he genuinely thinks it's a good idea. Like why is it a bad idea to buy a big RV car? or a kitten?
I think he would like to do things like, play games, build Lego sets, or watch movies/TV shows with his kid rather than going out and doing things.
I think once he found out he was going to be a father, he was over the moon with excitement and happiness. Like sweetly bragging about it or bringing it up whenever he could to fellow drivers or friends.
However as for his worries, I don't think he really would have any, and if he did he wouldn't let it get to his head. But I do think he was on high alert to make sure that everything was okay, and that everything was taken care of before and after the baby was born.
I don't think He would necessarily want his kids to get into racing or even push it. I think he wouldn't really care, however if they did get into karting/racing he would be overjoyed and make sure they had everything they needed to be successful and supported.
Like showing up as much as possible to their races, and celebrating if they did good, and even if they didn't do the best competitively wise he would cheer them up somehow. I don't think he would care much in the sense that they're winning or competing well, but rather if they're just having fun and enjoying it.
I think he would like to travel with his kids a lot, like exploring different places and making major memories with them. And best believe he has a photo album with all the photos he took at any place you guys visited.
After every trip, he gets the pictures printed out and as a family, you guys sit down and make and fill the album with the pictures, and decorate it, kinda like a scrapbook or something.
Tumblr media
Oscar Piastri ✧・゚: *
Would be a gentle father for sure.
Would be there to help his kids 24/7 or be very protective over them. Making sure they're feeling well all the time, if their shoes are tied correctly, or if they tired he carries them until they get home or aren't tired anymore.
I feel like he would do things like take his kids on a walk, or to something like a zoo, aquarium, park, museum, etc all the time.
I also feel like he would do arts and crafts with his kids if that was something they were interested in.
Like making paper flowers or drawing something with them. or like imagine him lying down on the living room floor with his kid, having colored pencils and crayons around them while coloring in coloring books together. ( he also probably has his own coloring book of cars or animals tbh)
As for him finding out he was going to be a father, I think he wouldn't be worried but rather very happy. Like all smiley and shit since he found out.
He would make sure everything was perfect for his kid, like having a checklist of things you guys need for the house or nursery. Or even reading things to support you and his child throughout and after to make sure things can go as smoothly as possible, and that he can be helpful and useful for anything you or the kid needs.
I think he would enjoy it if his kids could be at his races, even though he knows it is hard to travel all the time, but I do think he would like the idea of being able to spend that time with his family and if there was free time between each weekend and location he would take you guys to explore around the area.
As for if he cares if his kids get into racing or karting, I don't think he would really care. He would love it if they did, but on the other hand, I think he wouldn't want them to get hurt or anything like that and probably silently prefer if they picked a different sport or something not related to sports, like speech & debate or something like that.
Tumblr media
⭒❃.✮:▹A/N: I'm sorry for not posting in a while, I got a bit sick and school is starting up again. I'm also sorry if this isn't the best, I think I'm forming a small writer's block, so I was struggling to come up with ideas (especially for Lando? I don't know why.) However I hope you still like it, Love you guys <3

Eddie Brock - Alien
Tumblr media
Warning : none
Genre : fluff
Synopsis : How about being Eddie and venom's new hot tall neighbor who just moved in and them having bi panic and simping over him
Reader : male (you/he)
A/N : bold is Venom talking // Part TWO
Tumblr media
Their neighbor had quickly and quietly moved out.
Yeah, the one that played loud electric guitar. He's gone.
They didn't care when or why he left, even though Eddie had a little idea about it.
But now there's someone new that's moving in and despite being reluctant at first, Venom and Eddie quickly warmed up to the idea, especially after seeing you, the new neighbor, through their window.
You had moved in rather quickly before knocking on their door to present yourself. You shared your name and where you came from and exchanged a few more words, Venom silently listening in the back of Eddie's head.
"Holy shit." Venom said in his head.
Eddie said nothing, listening to you instead.
"He's hot !"
Instantly Eddie felt awkward, not knowing how to talk to you anymore. He didn't think of it, but Venom was right, you were kinda… hot.
"Eddie, tell him you like him."
Eddie coughed out a "No" discreetly enough for you to not notice it.
"Then invite him in !"
The inside of this flat flashed in Eddie's mind, showing his trashed kitchen and hanging car tires. He closed the door on himself more, so you could not see it, in a way that made you think you were taking too long and needed to end the discussion.
Which you did, quickly thanking him for his time and leaving to your side of the apartment.
"Good job he ran away !"
"That's your fault, V." Said Eddie, closing the door behind himself.
"How ?!"
He did not answer, feeling like it would be too complicated to explain and looked around. It truly looked like a fire hazard. Holes in the ceiling, claw marks on the walls, the cereals on the floor, ketchup on the walls along burn marks and so on…
"He is a tall one…"
Eddie said nothing, waiting.
"Was he taller than you ? I don't remember, I was lost in his eyes."
This made Eddie laugh. "You, lost in someone's eyes ?"
"Yes ! Beautiful [eye color] like… huh… I don't know."
To invite you in, he needed to clean up first and by the Gods he didn't want to. Especially since Venom would try to help but make things worse instead.
"Eddie. If we're looking for a human mate, it could be him."
"No." He said tiredly.
"Admit he was hot !"
"...No."
"Lies ! Lies ! Your pants are on fire, Eddie !"
"Alright !" He whisper-yelled, "He is hot ! Fucking handsome, even, happy ?!"
"No !! Because you made him leave ! He thinks we hate him !"
"No he doesn't."
Eddie sighed in annoyance "If you promise to help me clean up the place correctly, I promise to invite him in, alright ? Do we have a deal ?"
"Yes !"
And so they spent the next couple days cleaning up the flat and making it more comfortable and normal looking for a human, getting rid of the holes any way they could by hiding them with paint or wood planks.
During that time Eddie couldn't stop thinking of you. Wondering if you'd be happy to be invited. He began to wonder what your laugh sounded like and how big you could smile, trying to imagine it in his head while Venom was rambling.
"Do you think he's gonna like us ?"
"I don't know, Venom."
"He shall like the place ! We made it humanly welcoming !"
"I don't know if we should tell him about you yet. He might not react so well to an alien."
"When !?"
"I don't know…"
"Without me, your chances of attraction are low."
"Oh really ?"
Would it even work between the three of you ? What if he scared you ?
Once everything was cleaned up and replaced with better furniture, Eddie prepared himself. Showered, clean clothes, and freshly shaved to knock at your door.
When you opened, wind was knocked out of his lungs and Venom had to push him to make him say something. You were really something.
"I was- I was thinking, maybe you could come in for a beer or two ? I feel like we left on the wrong foot the other day." He said, looking you in the eyes. Even your eyes were beautiful to look at, Venom was right.
You agreed, closing the door behind you as you followed him to his apartment.
You spent a good hour there, drinking and laughing together until Venom had enough and decided to intervene.
"What is that !?" You yelled, jumping out of your seat and ready to throw your beer at the black gooey thing behind Eddie's back.
"Hello !"
"No ! [Name], don't !"
"I am Venom. Hello [Name]"
"It knows my name !"
"He's an alien, a symbiote. He's nice ! Please put your can down."
You slowly obeyed "Symbiote ? What is that ?"
"A living organism living in symbiosis with another species."
"An alien ?"
"You're the alien to me."
"Are you gonna eat me ?"
"No !"
"No ! Though humans are tasty."
"This doesn't help, V."
"I think I need another beer."

Summary of random facts about Merman because I'm bore (probably will update with time)
Tumblr media
We talk about this in a discord server and I just want to leave it here in case I forget
(Every fact here is based of what has been said in game, fan theories aren't canonically facts in this list) Last update: December 2023
(This list probably contain spoilers)
Not only they learn how to walk with legs, but also how to swim in human form (Stitch Event)
It takes them time get used to breathe air properly, walking their first steps feel heavy and painful and some of them still feel uncomfortable in clothes (Floyd's Beans Camo story / Jade's School Uniform voice lines)
The black carriage that picks them up to go to NRC is an amphibious magic coach (Floyd's Ceremonial Robes voice line)
Merfolks and Humans are aware of each other but is extremely rare to encounter an actual merman on land (Magicam Monsters event)
They aren't afraid of each other anymore, since Ariel married Erik merfolks commonly come and go from land to sea(Some adults even own some stores on the shores) (Floyd's Beach Wear story)
The institution or land boot camp that train merfolks to became humans was founded canonically by Ariel. They need at least one month there to get used to their new body and how to eat our food correctly. Deep under water they only eat raw meat (Floyd's Beans Camo story / Jade's School Uniform story)
In there also teach them about the fauna on land by taking them to the zoo (Floyd Platinum Jacket story)
Merfolks also have passports once they live in human society (Floyd Platinum Jacket story)
They can turn into their true form willingly (Book 3 / Book 4 / Azul's Ceremonial Robes story / Vargas Camp event / Magicam Monsters event)
However they drink potions to keep their human form. Those are really expensive and if they forget to drink it in time they turn back into merman really slowly (Book 6 Riddle and Azul's tower)
The potion itself is paid by the school and currently they drink an experimental version that allows them to keep their human form for a week or two instead of a couple of days. And it taste awful (Book 6 Riddle and Azul's tower)
None of them have good eyesight: Azul mainly use only one par of glasses because it helps with the ''Business Style'' he's aiming for, and even if he can see pretty well without them the lenses are prescript just as his lab glasses (Trey's Halloween Dress story / Azul's Lab Coat voice lines) Jade roam around the school at night because he feel at ease in the dark (Ruggie's School Uniform story) Floyd is always amused of bright colored things because they looked really dark under the sea (Floyd's lab coat story)
Their skin in human form is really smooth. That's because they are cover by slime in their true form that keep their skin moist and soft (Azul's Ceremonial Robes story)
Octopuses are a pretty exotic race even between merfolks, they are way bigger that the common merman. They are slow, so they are usually targeted by predators but they also are brutally strong and are able to manipulate all their limbs freely (Book 3 / Book 4 / Book 6 / Happy Beans event / Vargas Camp / Azul's Beach Wear voice lines)
Halloween under water have very ominous and respectful traditions, way opposite that Halloween on land. There's haunted ships with ghost that lost their lives drowned, so they play music to calm their sorrows and loneliness. There's many pirate ghosts wandering on rotten ships that could actually harm young merfolks if they are not careful enough (Jade's Halloween Dress story / Floyd's Halloween Dress story)
The Coral Sea is a really small community and merfolks don't hesitate to eat each other in order to survive (Many hints said by the octatrio to mention here. And yes, Floyd WILL eat any student if he have to (Azul's Beach Wear voice lines))
They live under a Monarchy and the current prince is called Rielle. Is implied that the prince assist in the same elementary school that Azul, Jade and Floyd (Book 3) **( The 14 one doesn't mention all the times the tweels bully Azul by calling him slow because I will lost count) ______________ That's it for now, I will add more eventually but this ones are the ones I can remember now, feel free to tell me what did I miss~

MONSTER TRIO BUYING YOU SANITARY NAPKINS
Warnings: Mention of period symptoms, English isn't my first language so there may be grammatical mistakes, swear words
LUFFY
Tumblr media
Please be patience with him, he doesn't even know what's happening. Sanitary napkins? Is that something you can eat? Is a towel? He don't know and he can go desperate
Poor innocent boy, he really wants to help but doesn't know where to start. He doesn't understand your mood swings, he gets scared when he sees you writhing in pain, and he doesn't know what a sanitary pad is.
In your hammock curled up, you asked Luffy to please buy you a pair of sanitary pads with wings. Oh boy. The captain froze, totally confused, in fact he had to ask Nami to explain to him what you were asking for.
With wings? Like a plane? Could you fly with that? He definitely didn't understand anything but he still went to fulfill his mission.
Great was his disappointment when the store assistant gave him a small pink rectangular package where he could see a strange drawing of a white object with flaps on the sides, it looked like a shoe insole. Were those the wings? He thought they were going to have feathers like a duck's :(
ZORO
Tumblr media
God damn, Can't he have a peaceful day or take a good nap without you interrupting him? When you called him from your room he rolled his eyes and walked to your door, clenching his jaw. He was going to protest but when he came in he saw you so messed up that he got genuinely worried.
He will be very grumpy but when it comes to helping or caring for those he cares about he does it without question. The problem was when you asked for the sanitary napkins. He even had to ask you to repeat it to see if he heard correctly.
Sanitary napkins, sanitary napkins and how the hell am I supposed to know what that is? He was muttering under his breath. The logical thing would have been to ask Nami. But Zoro's pride was too great to humiliate himself in front of a girl, he couldn't bear the shame of Nami laughing at his ignorance.
Anyway, he went to the store and started looking for those damn sanitary napkins. But there were so many, of all sizes, shapes and colors. And what was that about wings? Couldn't it be without wings? What was the fucking difference?
Zoro felt lost and his frustration was growing but he insisted that he could do it alone. Well, he couldn't. In the end he had to ask a saleswoman and the woman with a funny smile handed him a light purple package, it was soft like a pillow. He hoped this would be enough, or else he would have to put up with your mood swings.
SANJI

Totally a sweetheart. He perfectly understands what you have and what he has to do without having to ask Nami.
He will come visit you in your room from time to time to see if you need anything. A hot water compress for your belly? You will have it in less than a minute. Are you craving something sweet? Sanji will cook for you at any time and whatever you want.
It hurts Sanji's soul to see you so sore so he will stay by your side massaging your lower belly or telling you about All Blue to distract you.
Of course he knows what a sanitary pad or a tampon or a menstrual cup is, and he will buy you as many as you need without feeling embarrassed.
He will be the one who has the most patience with you and your mood swings. Nothing surprises him about you anymore and he knows how to comfort you anyway.

Okay I cant -- I need to say it out loud.
I am 100% sure, at this point, you are my favourite artist so far. And I have to honestly thank you for a lot of stuff so let me get to the point before my anxiety takes me back --
I came across you less than a month ago. I don't remember if I saw your art before reading your fictions (Mon Horrible Cherì was my first) or the other way around, but both inspired me so much I can't describe it properly. Art itself is my absolute weak spot. In my past years I always struggled working on that, I was never happy with my results, and mostly had drawn to pay bills than for my own happyness. In the end I hated it at the point that every line I drew was a cut on my hand instead of a moment of joy. And that was horrendous.
But then I came across your art, at some point - and I was amazed. Your style is something I wished to achieve years ago, or very similar to that at least, so I was totally into looking for more, and more, and more. I can't produce art of that quality, but for the first time I wasn't envious of another artist's ability and talent, I was just... Amazed. I felt very happy, can't say why, but your style totally fascinated me. It still do. Anytime you post something new it gives me a shot of serotonine, it makes me feel happy and inspires me to get back on my Huion and draw something too. I started to push it through everyday, and in less than a month I grew a lot. You don't know that, but you pushed me into art with a passion I didn't had since I was 16, and I turned 30 couple months ago. Now it gives me joy everytime I draw. It doesn't matter if the art I produce is no good, or if I change my style everytime (I'm trying a lot of styles right now), the only thing that matter is the way I feel when I sit here and just let my inspiration go. And I feel happy. Happy to draw. Happy to experiment. Happy to share. Somehow I don't feel ashamed of my art anymore, and I was for a long time. I improved so much in these weeks. I watched carefully almost all of your timelapses (I am in love with all of them btw) and followed your tutorials more than once. Your examples, the way you work, is just inspirational for me. I've seen someone was thankful to you for the way you use references and says people out there to do it too: I want to thank you for that too. References was a taboo until last month for me, and I was SO wrong! Those helps so much!
So, well. I am not sure I wrote this all correctly, english is not my native language (I'm italian) and I may have done some mistakes, well, I do not care. I just hope I was able to express you my gratitude for all you did for me - I had to let you know how much this means to me everyday.
Oh also: I love every part of your art, but I could stare at your linearts for days and never get bored by that. And the way you color! Don't make me start on that. I could speak for hours. Not sure you'll want that, believe me.
So, thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for making me believe in myself again. Thank you for giving me back my passion. Thank you for reminding me everyday I can draw for myself, for my own happyness. And thank you for making me happy.
You are a great artist.
Thank you! <3
i put off replying to this because i wanted to draw you something, but i just haven't had the energy after work and dont want u to think im ignoring you 😭
but i dont have WORDS. i'm so fucking proud of you. i'm so happy for you. browsing your blog and seeing the sheer amount of art and AUs you're making is so inspiring. your happiness is contagious and i hope you only continue to grow, and continue to foster all that joy for art.
thank you <3

Oh I have fucking HAD IT with this disrespectful condescending ass bitch!
This one manager has been rude and disrespectful to all of us employees-talking down to us, rolling her eyes when we ask questions, responding to everything we say to her with an incredibly disrespectful tone of voice, treating us like we're all braindead since day 1 of her being hired here. (She claims she's worked at this company for 10+ years, but I doubt it, considering how often she fucks up and how she still hasn't learned to treat employees with basic respect)
I was going to report her to HR last week, but I chickened out when I discovered that I'd have to input my personal information (full name, employee number, etc) with the report. (We don't have an in-house HR person. If we want to report something to HR, we have to email them. I personally have never filed a report, so I'ma littleunsure on the details, but I do know that when I attempted to file a report, I had to log into my work account with my employee number to access the email) But now I'm like fuck it. I have HAD IT.
A short list of things this bitch has done:
•Rolled her eyes and made a "blah blah blah" hand gesture when a new hire asked a question over the radio on multiple occasions.
•Knew a piece of equipment was charging incorrectly and didn't put a note on it or anything and didn't let me know (it was doing that thing that old phones do where you have to leave it at a VERY specific 45° angle for it to charge correctly) and then waited until I used the machines to snap at me for using it when it's supposed to be charging...when she never communicated that to me at all.
•In general, purposely doesn't communicate and then snaps at employees (or maybe just me specifically) for messing up something she was working on...without ever communicating that.
•Refuses to answer employees' calls for backup over the radio when she is clearly not busy.
•Will nitpick and belittle employees for extremely minor mistakes in front of other employees and customers. (Almost everyone on the crew is a new hire within the past few months + management doesn't train them)
•Also talks to customers in the same condescending tone as she talks to us employees in. (Like if a customer accidentally uses the wrong word for a product, she'll give them a condescending ass grammar lesson. This is not a real example, but if a customer wanted wood stain, but forgot the correct word for it and just asked for "wood paint" or "wood color" and one could reasonably piece together what they wanted, instead of just showing the customer the fucking wood stain, she would say something along the lines of "well we don't carry wood paint, we have acrylic paint and wood stain" and the customer would be like "oh yes, wood stain. That's what I meant" and she would say "well why didn't you just SAY that?")
And last of what I could think of + the thing that pushed me over the edge enough to seriously consider reporting her to HR, I don't even care if my name is attached anymore:
•Yelled at me for...using the wrong clear tape? There was no scotch tape in my department, only packing tape and I quickly needed to tape a product and used the packing tape instead. She yelled at me about it when 1. I'm too busy being the only employee running this department to look for scotch tape and 2. The spare scotch tape is kept in a cabinet in the office that only keholder management can access. Guess what she is?

Tumblr media Tumblr media
yandere kitsune servant! kurami x kitsune god! reader
[[ warnings: ]] 2 cuss words, esl, spelling and grammar mistakes, yandere but he isn't that intense(i think)
[[ a/n: ]] so its been awhile huh,,,,school kicked me so hard fr but thankfully its almost the end of the sy and then i go to shs which im kinda dejected about but oh well. Hope yall enjoy reblogs and likes are always appreciated!! (ESP COMMENTS PLS COMMENT)
I also really like how this turned out so i might write more in a bulleted form than story and might make a part 2 of you living with him if yall want to
Tumblr media
Kurami, the most loyal servant in your shrine. He basically feels like a househusband at this point with how close he is.
He always flaunts his hair, his eyes, his ears and tail; all different shades of the color chestnut.
"My beloved! I changed my hairstyle for you today! Do you like it?" That's weird, it was the style of the new servant yesterday...
"Where's the new servant you ask? Haha my goddess you're so funny! There's no new servant silly~" Because their body is already burned and sacrificed to you but you don't need to know that!
Kurami, who, seductively, shows you his tail; swishing it from side-to-side to, supposedly, show how clean and fluffy it is. He wants you to look at his ass
Going back to how he's like a househusband, he basically does everything for you! Cleaning, cooking, bathing—you don't even see your other servants anymore due to him doing all the chores that involves seeing you.
It got to the point where you found him overbearing. You tried to tell him to tone it down
key word: tried.
"Tone it down?? Your grace did I hear you correctly? I can't possibly tone it down!! I need to take care of you to maintain your beauty! No one else can do what I can!"
You were pissed at this point. You reminded him of his place—a servant who just does things as told and doesn't intrude into the personal life of their master.
He was hurt—no, heartbroken!! How can his goddess, the one he devoted his blood, sweat and tears to just treat them like that?!
He was beyond devastated doing minimal tasks that didn't include seeing or getting near you. He couldn't take getting treated like this...if you're gonna behave like this then he has no choice but to take matters into his own hands.
One by one, your servants start to disappear but for some reason the sacrifices to your name are getting bigger by the number...what the fuck is going on?
Rumors then start to spread about you, people saying that you kill off your servants and force people to sacrifice them in your name—which is literally bullshit but unfortunately they believed it.
Your shrine: in ruins, your followers: gone, your god status: what god status? You never thought the day would come where everyone would forget and move on from you.
You were confused, eyes about to cry a river until you see a shadow in the distance, clearing the pathway as they walk.
Is that...Kurami?
You run up to him—begging, pleading for forgiveness about how you treated him when he was the only devoted one from your servants.
It never felt so good to have you rely on him again. Fuck, he might just get a hard on looking at you.
He brings you to his home, where you'll forever temporarily stay until you build a following again. Like hell he'd let you do that.
"My goddess, even when the world is against you I'd be by your side until death—no, not even death can keep you from me. So, stay with me, okay?"

Some sketches from Malevolent!
I am obsessed with this podcast to the point of drawing so much about the ✨boys✨ I love when the media focuses on the relationship between characters, which is not love but not not love, they just care about each other and they try so hard to be better versions of themselves, but just doomed by the narrative. Poor guys, lets throw them into a mixer
Anyway....Enjoy!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My design of King in Yellow, John and Yellow.
The first one is the final design of King in Yellow. I love the idea of giving him pupils because the idea that some eldritch fucked-up thing has pupils really terrifies me. In the second pic, there is an old design of King in Yellow, that I changed a bit because he looked too human-like. There are also designs of John and Yellow, but I will probably change Yellow's design because he looks too human-like.
I really love the idea of a mask, so I decided to incorporate it into my designs. I broke it into upper half and lower half to bring some ✨symbolism✨. John has a lower part of the mask, which symbolizes his inability to talk and communicate with anyone except Arthur. Yellow has an upper half of the mask because from the first second, he was brought into the world, Arthur basically named him King in Yellow. He doesn't know anything besides that and never got a chance to learn about it. Therefore, he now bears the upper half of the mask as a crown of who he supposed to be
Tumblr media
Now to the John design!
I wanted to make John's design different throughout the whole podcast, to symbolize his changes. At first, he literally is some unformed piece that was torn from someone with force(=therefore cracks). At the end of the first season, he gets his cloak and mask, with the truth of his true identity. While he is going through the Dreamlands and accepts his past as the King in Yellow, he gains a halo (which you can see in the design of the KiY. Yellow also has one, but with a different color)
In seasons 3-4, he has a human body and in general looks more human-like, which was made intentionally, to show how he changed. Also, he gets rid of the hood, which is connected with my small headcanon, that it was the King who took it off and saw how much John changed and how he is no longer his piece. At the end of season 4 he gets rid of the mask and his fire now has golden light attached to it. That is connected with Kayne's "You are the only king in this plane of existence now, take it for all I care" or something like that I don't remember correctly now. In short, it means now, that John is his own person, that isn't connected to the King in Yellow anymore. Depending on the Yellow's fate, I maybe will give John another halo
Tumblr media
The boys✨✨
I don't have anything to say here, just wanted to draw them in their full sizes
Tumblr media
Some small sketches about them
I like the idea when John sort of has his own body, but when Arthur turns his head, John automatically does the same. The same goes with their hand and foot
Just a small idea about John having a mouth. Definitely just an idea, but it was fun to think about. Snakey boy
I always forget, that John's hand is left, not right, but anyway, the moment from episode 26, where John calms Arthur during his mental breakdown
The obligatory “John describes in explicit detail some hideous thing and Arthur tells him to shut the fuck up”
Them holding hands!!!!
Tumblr media
BONUS!!!
That was my first art of them! I just took the general fandom design for John and called it a day. Funnily, I drew that before I got to the season 4 finale
Anyway, thank you for your attention!!

Does Brenner really asks Henry "what changed your mind? Is there someone else"? Are you serious? Is that actual dialogue?? I'm just shocked, how is no one talking about how weird Brenner is with Henry? does it just flies over most peoples heads?? What the hell
That is straight out of the plays I saw. Both of them. Verbatim.
Henry decides to leave HNL because Patty asked him to come back to do the school play. He tells Brenner he wants to leave, and the scene more or less goes like this:
"I'm leaving." "I'm sorry to hear that. Can I ask why?" "I've decided I don't want to do this (read: make contact with the Shadow) anymore." "What changed your mind? Is there someone else?" "...No." "What, you think you can be normal? Go to prom with some stupid girl?" (Taking pages out of byler's playbook, I see)
And if I recall correctly, that's when Henry starts trying the theater doors to get out. Brenner goes on to tell Henry that he's all Henry will every have, etc. Brenner also, at one point, refers to Henry as "my boy", to which Henry whirls around and storms back towards the stage while growl-yelling "I'M NOT YOUR BOY". (And god it's so fucking good in person.)
Brenner very much treats Henry like a misbehaving/unfaithful wife. It had me gasping even the second time I saw the show and knew it was coming. I expected their dynamic to be clear, but I didn't expect it to be this blatant.
Tumblr media
(Right down to love triangle blocking and shared color palettes! Slay. I hate it.)
More "fun" freak facts: Brenner kisses Henry on the head twice during his first stay in the lab:
When he's trying to trauma-bond Henry to himself by forcing him to lose control and kill a rat, only to present himself as a sole possible source of comfort for Henry. After Brenner cups Henry's face in his hands to take readings of his pupil sizes (1.9 and 5.9 respective to left and right eyes...1959...), Henry turns to sob into Brenner's shoulder about it, and Brenner hugs him/kisses his hair and tells him that what he did was "very good". (All of this while Henry's displaying, and I quote, "traumatic mydriasis", which is consistent with strokes and major head injuries. No medical treatment for Henry, just kisses and petting from Brenner.)
When Henry's having his grand mal seizure after displaying images of Dimension X. Brenner doesn't give him proper seizure care, he just cradles him, pets him, and kisses the top of his head. While Henry's half-aware post-seizure, Brenner asks him if he'd like to make contact with the Shadow. Henry agrees, but then as soon as he's slightly more aware he looks to a doctor behind him and literally asks for help. He looks back and says "Help..." Brenner also massages Henry's shoulders while he's ball-gagged in the '70s, and tells him he's been "such a good boy these past few years", which means he's fit to meet the children, which are referred to both as his and Brenner's children, but also as his siblings.
This means he kisses/caresses Henry more than Patty does. Period. Point blank.
Brenner also has some choice lines about Henry and killing. Henry's being forced into killing this whole time, but Brenner turns it around on him and says, verbatim, "You liked it more than you thought you would". It's 10000% giving "You actually wanted it/You were asking for it" irt being, uh, forced into doing something that you didn't want to do. (Especially irt the Shadow and all of its rape coding...Yikes!)
Brenner also massages Henry's shoulders while Henry's ball-gagged and belted to a chair in the '70s, all while telling Henry he's "been such a good boy these past years", which means Brenner has deemed him fit to meet the children...the children which are referred to both as Henry/Brenner's children, but also as Henry's siblings.
Yeah. They're considered Brenner and Henry's children ("You're as much a father to these children as I am"), but they're also Henry's "brothers and sisters". You do the math on that one.
Lots of freak vibes all around.

I'd like to stop and take a few to talk qbout one of my biggest other compassion.
Firstly, the Book, Fire and Blood is very much different then HOTD.
In Fire and Blood, The Velaryon are not of African American decedent.
Not because this show is a promotion to BLM either, George R.R. Martin made the entire book to make you question the truth of Rhaenyra sons and the fact that it truly could go either way for her first sons legitimacy.
See in the book Rhaenys is half Baratheon.
And if you remember correctly from GOT Baratheon black hair seed genetics are extremely strong.
But so are Targaryens.
This is why Rhaenys is told to have split color hair of strips of black and white though slowly turning gray when mentioned.
Unlike HOTD.
Therefore Luce and Jace having Black hair is considered completely legit to start with though many don't believe.
There's also the sympathy towards Alicent and Rhaenyra relationship in the show.
As they once truly loved each other in the book no such relationship exists.
Alicent simply does not believe Rhaenyra to have been faithful to her marriage and her sons aren't Leanors.
Truly a call back to Ned Stark and Jon Arryn discovery of who Joffrey, Mrycella and Tommen do belong too.
Because of her child all come to be of Targaryen white haired.
Futuristically though we very well know any Baratheon blood in these children can result in Over lapping Targaryen features.
As well as Stark overlapping Targaryen features.
Also in the book Leanor does in fact die.
They don't help him flee with his lover to get out of his duties as Rhaenyra husband.
Matt Damon is very beloved but if you read the books before you seen him as Daemon you'd be greatly concerned with the red flags he exhibits towards Rhaenyra position.
It's believed he corrupts her to be the in charge of the iron throne and over turning her commands.
Though this is the true start of his corrupting her he does fall for her in the books which sets up their ending together with a horribly played and violent relationship.
In the book, Alicent is bitter because of the shows reason for her loyalty to the king.
And her father's lack of interest in her anymore.
When he see her attack they become a duo to be reckoned with like she wanted.
Because Rhaenyra was raised to rule by the king and he never showed Aegon how to rule this is why in show and book she has many victories and is seen to be the heroine that shows restraint and sympathy.
Alicent was only queen trying to put Aegon who had no interest in what he was supposedly born to as king.
This is why the greens torture and are easily the villians in the story.
Alicent never once spent time trying to properly make her children PROTECTORS OF THE REALM rather then just RULERS OF EVERYONE.
She doesn't care about the other parts of being top of the line she only cared for getting the top spot.
Daemon being unstable and the father to the only Targaryen children legitimate on the throne after the dance probably helped with the madness in their line.
I do feel sorry for Helaena her daughter.
As she is a seer abused her children slaughter and only tortured because she was born to who she was.
She spends the rest of the book insane mostly after her children's death.
Perhaps if Aegon the Second ever once had his father's attention and learned to be a true prince like Rhaenyra had been true princess the war would not have been so ugly.
He was never trained for it.

Dream hair at home - why don’t you have your dream hair today
Why don't you have your dream hair yet even if you are following tips from professionals and bloggers? And how will you achieve it now? Focusing on hair therapy and treating it from the inside. That's why I need to talk to you about how the beauty of your hair strands, contrary to what many people think, it is not acquired only through cosmetic products, it also comes from the inside. Our focus here is for you to learn how to take care of your hair at home using the correct products and technique, but I couldn't help but tell you that your hair is also reflection of your health. Many people think that hair is dead matter and whose function is only to adorn and protect the face and the scalp. And, yes, it has these functions, but, In fact, your hair's most important role is to be the mirror, the reflection of how your body is inside. Our body is a unique, completely integrated system. For your thyroid to be well, it is necessary that your stomach is in good condition; for your stomach to be well, your liver needs to be healthy. In other words: your organs are all interconnected, and they all have importance. It couldn't be any different with your hair: it has the important role of being the thermometer that points out whether you are are healthy inside or not. Hair is a reserve of nutrients for your body. And when one is missing nutrient, a vitamin, a mineral for the liver, for example, your body takes it from the reserve, that is, from your hair, to deliver to the liver
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The same happens when we manage to contain a dermatitis using just one ointment. However, treating cause and nipping the evil in the bud is the right thing to do. therefore, we only obtain lasting results by taking care of your health… I want to tell you that yes, we can also treat your strands and make them look beautiful and perfect using cosmetics correctly. However, I need you to have awareness that maintaining a balanced diet and keeping your body hydrated is crucial for your hair to be in it’s shape. At some point in this series, you may think “um, but the blog I read said differently” or “um, but my hairdresser taught me differently.” And I know that many of the things I'm going to teach you here are very different from what you've ever seen. This will happen because Your hairdresser or beauty blog writer don’t focus on hair therapy. The hairdresser specializes in changing color and shape of the hair. Cut, dye, bleach, style your hair… But, in fact, the best way to learn deep knowledge of caring for yarn is with a hair therapist or a tricologist so I decided to share what I learned with mine. Here I hope to help you take better care of your hair at home
Shall we read labels? “Julia, are you going to teach me how to read labels and understand about the composition of the products?” I want you to learn, in a practical and objective way, to create your hair Schedule at home.
There's no point in bringing content at this point in-depth information about Hair Therapy right now. This would interfere with your results, since you are starting now. The important thing here is that you learn how to take care of your hair so that they look beautiful in record time. To do so, you first need to understand why of still not having that wonderful hair that you so desire. What are you doing wrong or what products are not should you be using? What are you doing today that is stopping you from having the perfect hair?
Foods I need you to stop using homemade recipes today. Mayonnaise, egg, avocado… None of that should be used anymore. be applied to your hair. This is because, although some these are foods that are good for hair health, they need to be ingested, not applied. After all, your digestive system needs to digest and absorb of these nutrients, which will be released into the blood tissue and then distributed to their cells, including those of your hair. Food, therefore, should no longer be applied to the hair.
Products that are more disruptive than helpful Also, please stop using toning shampoo now. It really damages your hair. Furthermore, did you know that humectant oil, when used incorrectly, Does it mistreat the hair strands a lot? It turns out that the risks can be greater than the benefits, so I'd rather you not or if. In medicine, there is a premise that the use of A medicine is not justified unless the expected benefits outweigh the possible harms. And it is the same for our case here with the use of oils. He will be more damaging to your hair than it will actually cause benefits. I will explain more about these issues later. with vegetable oil, but right now I need you to stop use all of this that, instead of helping you, is delaying your results and preventing you from having perfect hair now.
After all, what is healthy hair? This is when the hair has a silky feel and, in fact, is silky… it's really well groomed
For example, when we only apply shampoo, the hair becomes hard and difficult to untangle. This is because the shampoo has a pH of around 5.5, above the physiological pH of the hair, which is between 3.8 and 4.5.
Physiological pH means that the hair's natural healthy stay at this pH. Therefore, whenever it is outside this, with a higher or lower pH, the wire will have an unpleasant appearance. On the other hand, when applying a very acid product, below the pH of the hair thread, acidification or compaction of the thread will occur. This is the case with the Brazilian hair dry, relaxing your hair, botox and sealing, which have a pH of 2.5 to smooth and reduce the yarn volume. However, this hair will hardly have the same health as a hair that falls within the physiological pH.
Healthy hair is one in which the pH is in the physiological or even balanced range, between 3.8 and 4.5. In this course, you will have all the resources to get that hair healthy, in other words, the hair of your dreams!

Killing off Ilsa was both damaging for Grace and Ilsa
I already saw two accusation flying around saying that 1. we are pitting Grace and Ilsa against each other and 2. that we are reducing Grace to a love interest.
So let me give some context. When I was sitting in MI7 i was hoping the whole time we would see Grace and Ilsa working together. Or we would see Ilsa working with the female killer, to cause chaos. In short, for the movie to pass the Bechdel test. It didn't happened. Which already left me disappointed. So many women and none of them has a single interaction with eachother. What a shame
But why do I care so much? Its an action movie after all. Why do I excpect female characters to be treated correctly in the MI movies? In short, when the MI movies started they were like a second Bond. Especially the women were Bond girls. Easy replacable. Don't get me started on the femme fatale trope of MI1 or the damsel in distress in MI2. And the Bond movies struggle so much to get away from this hurtful potrayal of female characters. The MI movie didn't. Quickly they developed cool, kick ass female agents who were equal to Ethan and NOT his love interests. BUT (and that is thing everything boils down to eventually) they were still replacable. Not the men, they weren't, because they are men. But the female actresses all got replaced with every new movie being released. UNTIL Ilsa. And that makes her so special. We finally finally had a woman who got her time to devlop a character, a back story, because she stayed longer then one movie. And from the beginning onwards she was a troubled character (and not in the tragic damsel in distress way Nyah was.) She was complex because she had time to be complex. This isn't about ilsa. This could also have been Jane Carter or Nyah or Zhen, because they all deserved it. But it took us five movies and 16 years to finally get a female character who was allowed to stay around.
Then Grace appeared. When I saw her, my hope was that she would be yet another cool kick ass female character who would stay around for longer (so far, i was true) and work together with Ilsa. Female soldiarity. As equals. Finally making the team more female, moving it away from the whole tierd trope "three men and one women" (which is so outdated and still gets used in shows like Paw Patrol. It is like we haven't moved a single bit in female representation. there can only be one woman)
And this is the problem. I am sure there are Ilsa stans who pit Ilsa against Grace, no question on that. But the bigger problem is that the movie did it first. MI6 had this wonderful scene where Ilsa says about Julia: "I like her".
I hoped for something like that between Ilsa and Grace but what did we got: "Only one can survive" So it was always one against another. There can only be one woman. But why? Why MCQ? Why can't there be two?
Because now Ilsa is dead. And she isn't THE woman anymore. She isn't the woman anymore who was not replaced by yet another female character. No, now she is just one of many. Claire, Nyah, Zhen, Jane, Lindsey, Ilsa, Grace.
Ilsa is now just a name on a list. And the horrible thing is: Grace as well. By killing off Ilsa you showed that BOTH Ilsa and Grace are replacable. And thats horrible.
Hayley (Grace) was/is supposed to be the next Ethan Hunt. But now her role of a hero will be always founded on a dead woman. Which btw is the reason that many casual fans already said: They love Grace but the moment Ilsa died, they started hating Grace/ or: The moment ilsa died they decided they wouldn't watch another MI movie EVEN THOUGH they love Grace and thinks its a pity for her
And thats what I think too, you could have had TWO amazing female heros. But instead MCQ killed one of them to bring up the other. This is NOT the female representation i want in my movies
Also if Hayley will take over the MI movies she needs good starting conditions. Look how much people hated that a woman of color took over the 007 title for one minute. Imagine what will happen when studios say: Ethan Hunt is done, here is Grace" People (Men) will be furious anyway. Already making them furious now by pitting her against Ilsa and building her legancy on Ilsa is the worst start her character could have and i wonder why MCQ didn't considered that. I mean MI TV show stans are still angry at the first MI movie and refuse to watch the movie movies completly for what happened in MI1.
2. So is saying "Grace is just a stand in for Ilsa" sexist? No. But the movie treats her like one and thats sexists. Grace is amazing! She is funny, she is lovable, she is deeply human and a really clever thief. But instead of using those talents to let the movie shine, MCQ decided that Ethan would turn to her minutes after Ilsa died, touch her, nearly kiss her etc. Which is like...? Same things he did with Ilsa one hour ago in the desert. Does that reduces Ilsa and Grace to a love intrerest? No, both are so much more. But it is established that Ethan has a thing for brown haired women. His wife was one, his girlfriend was one, Ilsa was one and then Grace walks on the screen, with the same fashion scene as Ilsa etc. But without the established backstory. Still kinda helpless und clueless. Yeah she can fight and save herself and is kickass. But the whole thing is that Grace is "Before joining an agent organisation" and Ilsa is "after leaving an agent organisation" was... really telling imo. Take that the way you like
That Ethan seemed to have an instant attraction to both Grace and Ilsa was only a part of the mirroring, part of a bigger picture, it doesn't reduce Ilsa or Grace to a love interest
Edit: I noticed this part sounds confusing. To summarize it. Ilsa is: established backstory + fighting skills + saves herself + love interested. Grace is: no established backstory + thief skills + kinda saves herself + love interest. Because she doesn't has a troubled past like Ilsa the focus was shifting so much stronger to the love interest part of her, that even though that she is so much more then that, eventually she just felt like another: Amazing super agent who can kick ass, but who is eventually only there to kiss the male main character to boost his ego and to help him learn a lesson and become more humble" What we already had so so many times. And is so boring. Ilsa was more then that because of her backstory. But then go a stand in with Grace. And so we end up at the „both are replaceable“ part again
Funny that MCQ hated the idea of Ilsa being a love interest so much that he rather had her dying then her kissing Ethan. While it was him who wrote multiple kissing scenes in the first place and it was him who immeditaly wrote "and ethan gets all touchy touchy on Grace" So MCQ, whats the truth?
TL:DR: Killing of Ilsa hurted both Grace and Ilsa and was a step backwards in female representation in action movies because Ilsa and Grace should have fought along side each other. The legacy of one woman shouldn't be build on the death of another

15 questions for 15 friends
Ahhh thxs for the tag @lavenderpanic :D
1. are you named after anyone? Nah, I have the most boring and generic name ever. I absolutely hate it. My chosen name I'm not really named after anyone but I do share it with one of my favourite characters so I got that going for me.
2. when was the last time you cried? Like 4 hours ago while driving and listening to music and thinking about the person I love. It was weird to have a happy cry but it felt really nice.
3. do you have kids? Oh god, no. I have a dog. I want some cats. I honestly don't have patience for kids and I don't really see myself having any, they scare me lmaoooo.
4. what sports do you play/have you played? I did karate for 3 years. I also absolutely love badminton, I was amazing at it and won several tournaments in my PE classes lmao. Also volleyball. Never played soccer but I always wanted too. Unfortunately, sports just aren't great for me anymore but I really wish I could play again, I miss them.
5. do you use sarcasm? Not really, I don't think? My humor has been described as reallllly dry though. So like sarcasm but with less heat lmao.
6. what’s the first thing you notice about people? How they move/their presence lol. I don't even know how to describe it. But like, just how a person moves in an environment.
7. what’s your eye color? Boring brown lolll. My eyes are definitely the thing I hate the most about my appearance.
8. scary movies or happy endings comedies? I'm absolutely awful at scary movies. I literally get such paranoia and hallucinations and I think I once triggered myself into a psychotic episode because of a PG13 'scary' movie. And it lasted for a week so likeeeee.. comedies 100%
9. any talents? My joints are my only talents lmao. Bending my thumbs to my forearms. Bending my elbows and knees backwards. Folding my arms backwards in front of me. popping my joints continuously. Subluxing my hips and shoulders on command.... thats it lmao.
10. where were you born? Chongqing, China.
11. what are your hobbies? So ill lately I kinda forget I have hobbies sometimes. I like to draw when I can. I love making stickers and prints and stuff. I like doing crafts and activities and stuff. I also like to write but I've been in a huge slump as of lately. I love reading too but also haven't been able to concentrate long enough to do that :/ I used to write and make music too.
12. do you have any pets? I have two dogs! A Welsh Terrier and a Poodle x Old English Sheep Dog. Love them both.
13. how tall are you? 5'1. (155cm) Though I might be taller if my bones knew how to stack correctly.
14. favorite subject in school? Biomedical science is my biggest passion. Especially diagnostic and treatment aspects. I loooooovveeee human body science and my favourite thing is learning about all the things that go wrong in it, why they go wrong in it, and how it can be managed. I read textbooks for fun lmao. If I weren't chronically ill and disabled I would absolutely go into the medical field. I remember doing gel electrophoresis tests and cadaver labs and dissections and stuff and it was just ugh. I loved all of it so much I wish I could've gone farther in it.
15. dream job? I'd loved to have been a primary care physician/family doctor or to work in the ER. Realistically, I really want to illustrate medical textbooks or infographics and stuff for hospitals or medical facilities.
Gently tagging @bucky-boychik-barnes and @ace-bucket
