#I like parallels

[bajuuuu]

Hello again! Watching “the day of the dove”, you know the episode about finding similarities between you and your enemies (enterprise and a bunch of Klingons). Anyways… the Klingon commander has a wife. Said wife is also his his chief science officer.

He introduces her, she stands beside him. The camera shifts to Jim. Spock standing beside him.

These scenes followed each other.

Byakuya being wounded by his own Senbonzakura.

Ichigo being hit by Ginjo's Getsuga Tensho... Which is his, because Ginjo stole it.

Byakuya - Slightly cut up left arm.

Ichigo - Slightly burned right arm.

I should not be left to my own devices, they come with prices and vices, I end up in crisis. / it must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero.

"Spoils of War" opens with Todd's lieutenant insisting that they have to leave the replicator planet immediately or they'll be blown up, and Todd replies, "We're not leaving without those darts," and "Not until I get what I came for."

And it ends with Todd insisting they have to leave the cloning facility planet or they'll be blown up, with Lorne replying, "Not before our people get back," and Teyla also saying, "We'll wait as long as is necessary."

There’s that post that’s like ‘everyone should get into a tiny niche fandom at least once’ fully agree, that was really fun -- but I would like to add that everyone should get into a fandom where their opinions run counter to major fanon because it really teaches you about sticking to your guns and trusting your interpretation of the text without having to rely on peer validation

because WHAT are people talking about sometimes

#aka: genuinely sometimes I think I live in a parallel universe and simply watched/read different things #full disclosure it does make you feel like a killjoy sometimes #because often times these fanons will be presented in a silly jokey manner #'oh so silly isn't this character so funny this is just my silly little headcanon' #and it's like yes yes lol lol but ok look me in the eyes and tell me you know that this is #at best only one interpretation of many and at worst simply not supported by the text at all #please tell me you know that #or in one specific example such a ubiquitous joke that is literally a significant theme of the work and i feel like SUCH a killjoy #being like 'ok yes very funny.....you know that was a major theme right?? tell me you know that'

the history book on the shelf is always repeating itself

mob psycho is the greatest show ever made because reigen being cancelled on twitter is one of the most important moments for his character as well as one of the most emotionally heavy episodes of the show but him being trapped in alone in a purgatory dimension slowly starving to death is treated as a gag and never mentioned again

#I KNOW ITS BECAUSE ITS AN OVA BUT ITS STILL FUNNY #like him being made into a meme and getting doxxed on 4chan drastically changes his behavior going forward #but nearly dying because he was lying to one of his employees about having things under control has no impact on him #he even lies AGAIN and says he'll be fine in the confession arc to the SAME PERSON #like the confession arc was probably written before the ova was even dreamed of but. parallels. #mp100 #mob psycho 100 #reigen arataka

thinking a lot right now how kabru’s fascination/obsession with humans makes him such a ruthless fighter against them in the same way that laios is so effective against monsters because he studies up on them endlessly

#it’s like one of the most obvious parallels between them but GOD. i love it so much #ugh when they’re narrative foils #laios touden #kabru #kabru dungeon meshi #laios dungeon meshi #dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon

"For a moment or two I could see nothing, as the shadow of a cloud obscured St. Mary’s Church and all around it. Then as the cloud passed I could see the ruins of the abbey coming into view; and as the edge of a narrow band of light as sharp as a sword-cut moved along, the church and the churchyard became gradually visible. Whatever my expectation was, it was not disappointed, for there, on our favourite seat, the silver light of the moon struck a half-reclining figure, snowy white."
