Jimmy is canonically getting called a shrimp and injuring himself trying to open jam jars and Thomas is like "oh my god this is my dream man".

#downton abbey #thomas barrow #jimmy kent #i have a love hate relationship with Jimmy as a character #personally don't ship them but i do see why people do. i think the actors had good onscreen chemistry when their characters became friends

+ the bonus nobody asked for, my favourite jimmy/sami handshake moment (while jey fights for his life):

#sami zayn #jimmy uso #jey uso #wweedit #he looks so fucking happy when he says it's their real life handshake 😭😭😭 #also just this idea that even though the usos and sami aren't friends onscreen at the moment #i just know they're having love-ins after every show and before every show #i just knoooow #i love them so fucking much #i have to know what his handshake with jey is though #like is it just this one too? #is it another one? #is it the one he did that ONE AND ONLY TIME (still bitter can u tell) before roman flipped his lid???? #is it the old one jimmy and sami had before they evolved into this one??? #rami i need ANSWERS #i love this handshake moment though bc it's so natural #the others are obviously On Show for the world and i love them too #but jimmy just effortlessly does it like it's second nature for them both 😭😭😭😭 #anyway i'm in my missing them era so i'm just being self-indulgent with my posts bye #expect Too Fuckin Much jey/sami/jimmy #jeysuso #mine*

character wrapped 2023 💥

tagged by @davidtennantpussytulpa ^-^ i didn't know how many to do so i copied tara and did top 10. i know the severance guys are Four Of Them but i can't separate them theyre all equally important to me

will graham (hannibal), em haywood (nope), aziraphale (good omens), mark & dylan & helly & irving (severance), hawkeye pierce (mash), martha jones (doctor who), ivan karamazov (the brothers karamazov), kim kitsuragi (disco elysium), stewy hosseini (succession), ruescott melshi (andor/rogue one)

i will tag... @fagician @britomart @libraryfag @roadwhores @majorbaby @globuspolski @hadleyfraserfaggot @tenderscience if u want to ^-^

#and now i will explain them all in detail #cos i started watching hannibal back in like. january or february and will immediately set up camp in my head and started to settle there #*I* pay rent to *HIM*. he lives there permanently. sweating and monologuing constantly #em was not only the character of 2022 but also of 2023 and of 2024 and the rest of the decade and all decades to come #she had such an impact on me keke palmer's performance will live with me forever and i love nope so fucking much #i almost didnt include her because nope was more of a last year obsession. but she lives on #aziraphale.........no comment #severance.......i love them all so much and at first i wanted just irving and then just helly and then i realise i cried over mark this week #and then i realised i couldnt possibly leave out dylan when hes probably my favourite character. so then i settled for all of them #hawkeye is my fucking wife. enough said #martha... well i knew i had to have a doctor who character. i thought maybe the doctor but then i thought their companions mean more to me #sometimes at least. i did have a fourteen icon for a while but then i was like but Donna..... and then i thought. well #these past few months at least martha jones has been eating away at my heart. i go batshit insane when i think about her #her impact. her grace. her power. so she had to go on the list.it was a toss up between her and donna for sure though #then i figured i had to include a karamazov since reading that book took up half of my year. and ivan was my favourite of the 3. so <3 #kim goes without saying. literally nothing to be said hes the character Of All Time. to me #stewy also goes without saying ive had so many Stewy Save Me moments since the beginning of season 4 all the way to the end of the year #i miss him every day. he is the moment. i wish there was more of him all the time #and the last one is a bit of a wildcard cos all my insanity abt melshi has been on my andor sideblog. #but rest assured ive been thoroughly Not Normal about him. he literally side appears in 4 episodes and has 11 total minutes onscreen #but i love him. so much. and hes occupied most of my thoughts since september. once again his impact his power his grace. his homosexuality #enough said. that's all. thanks for reading. this was a great year for autism and madness #tag game #🍪

people do get mad at the characters in this show me included but fwiw given the time and focus I could write a thesis-length defense for every single one of them including boston

my favorite thing about this show so far is how complicated and human they all get to be. yeah there's a lot of brokenness in these characters and relationships! yeah they're doing some terrible shit to one another! most of the worst of it is not actively malicious which is what makes it feel so relevant and messy and true: we hurt each other in all kinds of unthinking sloppy selfish ways in real life, too.

I'm not here to come after anyone who gets any catharsis hating on a fictional character. one of the few things that does not have the potential to hurt these little shits is how we the viewers of their fictional(/ized) lives feel about them. but unless something major changes you're not going to see much of that around here

#the one whose character i am most likely to actually take the time to write about at length...is unquestionably ray #i do have my biases #and khaotung makes an absolute meal out of a grey character #i would not want any of these people in my rl friend group #but god i love the snarly mess of them onscreen #ofts #only friends the series

[sonknuxadow]

sorry but im like the worlds biggest hater when it comes to future/next gen au stuff for sonic characters . and its not that i have an inherent problem with people doing those types of aus/stories its just that i havent seen many people do it in a way that isnt boring and also actually fits the characters. like they either make almost everyone cishet and go with all the "default" ships and/or put most if not all the characters in a married with kids situation even if it doesnt fit them or something else would be more interesting. and they also just completely ignore the concepts of adoption or single parents or people who just dont want to get married or have kids . and its like why are you all so boring with this why do you insist on shoving everyone into little nuclear family boxes even if it doesnt work for them as a character especially when non traditional family situations are such a common thing in sonic come on

and i think that out of all the characters sonic is one of the ones who gets it the worst with this sort of thing. with the way he acts in canon having him "settle down" into a "traditional" married with kids lifestyle once hes an adult feels like the most forced and out of character thing ever. he would not fucking say that etc etc

#especially if its with amy . mandatory disclaimer that i love amy #but sonic eventually agreeing to marry her in the future is like the worst possible ending to their whole situation #its bad for both of their characters i think . for multiple reasons #also if its with shadow . like im not saying him and sonic could never date or anything . #just that i cant see them living together and getting married and all that super serious and committed stuff #i guess you could argue that sonic not caring about romance and stuff could change when hes older since hes only 15 #but . i kinda Dont Like the implication that growing up/becomign more mature = suddenly wanting to get married and stuff #also am i the only one who thinks its unrealistic for everyone in the existing cast to end up marrying someone they already know right now #like im not saying its impossible for some of them to end up getting with eachother #its just that . most of them are teenagers or otherwise really young and they have so much time to meet other people #what if rouge's future wife is some random person we've never seen onscreen before huh . ever thought of that

THEM THEM THEM

#MY FAVORITE SPIDEYS EVER AUGH I LOVE THEM THEY LOOK SO COOL IN THE TRAILER #LOOKING AT THEM LOOKING AT THEM LOOKING AT THEM LOOKING AT T #the level of serotonin i got when miguel spoke spanish #trough the roof #im already so excited for this movie im going to explode #it looks like the jealous live triangle is like a subplot that wont truly have much onscreen time and that makes me so glad lmao #*LOVE im not writing all that again #fer talks

society if felisa valdez had been brought back as eddie's love interest instead of marisol

#like i'd still be rooting for buddie endgame but god at least felisa is interesting #she has a personality and a backstory and a career and a best friend and. yknow. a goddamn last name #i would have enjoyed having her onscreen and i think her relationship with eddie would have been interesting #both of them dealing with past trauma... eddie navigating the weirdness of dating a celebrity... their fun skeptic/believer dynamic... #if we're still going for a repressed gay eddie storyline then instead of the stupid fucking nun outfit #we could have gotten something like eddie wondering 'i'm dating a woman literally thousands of men dream about dating #so why am i somehow still not attracted to her or in love with her? what am i looking for in a partner if she's not it?' #and tbh felisa seems so sweet and developed such a genuine friendship with eddie in her one episode #that i could honestly see him coming out to her first because that's less scary and less real than coming out to anyone at the 118 #we could have had it alllllll #911 abc #911 lb

I am super fucking pissed about Wee John in this last episode.

Why. The. Fuck. Was. He. Not. Included. AT. ALL. During. The. Escape??????????

Legitimately, where the fuck was he? I was fuming for a lot of that because he's my favorite character, so I was looking for him. While everyone was stripping the English of their uniforms and getting dressed up (at least partially) in disguise, he is the only character not included.

They make a point about Fang not getting a proper shirt, which already pissed me off enough, that he had to wear what was essentially prison stripes while everyone else was in uniform, but Wee John wasn't even there. He wasn't in the raid. He wasn't in the run down the beach.

He just wasn't even fucking there. And if it was something Kristian decided he didn't want to worry about hurting himself over, particularly looking out for his back and knees, I understand not asking him to run over and over again for reshoots. But the fact that he didn't even get dressed with them... and that's the second time he's been excluded from a plan apparently due to his size (remember that he didn't get to participate when The Revenge dressed up as rich boys for Nigel Badminton)...

It is legitimately breaking my heart. One of the things I love about this show is the love is gives to its fat characters and actors. Fang gets to have his tummy out 24/7 and he's treated like a snack by Lucius, Wee John got to have an incredible dress, Oluwande is the crew's most eligible bachelor, and we even got a delightful fat character in 2x07 who spent his whole time dressed in only some leather halters and pants...

But the fact that Wee John was singled out and left behind, and the fact that Fang was singled out and othered at that very same time... It fucking hurts. As a fat person who has loved getting to see so much love for fat bodies... it stung to see that the comedy couldn't even suspend its reality long enough to say "there are a few fat people in the Royal English Navy, so Wee John and Fang get to be dressed up too."

#Cae Has Lots of Feelings About Our Flag Means Death #Have I already cried about this? Yes. I have. #It seriously hurts so much to see the character I most saw myself in separated from the entire rest of the cast over his size again #It breaks my heart so much. #I was literally asking my tv 'But where's Wee John?' all the way from the montage of them suiting up - all the way through Izzy's death. #Because he just didn't exist onscreen again until the LuPete marriage. I almost thought they were writing him out of the show there. #I hope to GOD that Kristian was the one to decide he didn't want to deal with the labor of that scene #Because I cannot imagine how he could've felt if he had to sit there alone and listen to people tell him 'Wee John just isn't in this part. #'Just for logical reasons though. Just cuz there's no way there'd be a uniform jacket big enough for him.' #Because I would've been gutted. #Wee John is big. Kristian Nairn is big. But he is not some unreasonable size. #And it feels cruel that he keeps getting treated like it. #Sending all my love to Kristian right now. I hope he doesn't need any of it. But he has it all the same. #Our Flag Means Death #OFMD #Our Flag Means Death Season 2 Spoilers #Our Flag Means Death Spoilers #OFMD Spoilers #OFMDS2 #OFMD s2 spoilers #Wee John #Wee John Feeney #OFMD Fang #OFMD Meta #OFMD Critical

the version of tashigi that lives in my head is soooo much cooler than anything oda could ever hope to write about women. oda doesnt understand her I Do Though

#the smoker and tashigi episodes that live in my mind. oda wishes. he wishes he were me #this is true of every woman in 1pc but its so frustrating watching any scene with tashigi bc like #yes shes clumsy scatterbrained etc etc those are fine those can stay bc through all that shes. SUPPOSED to be competent. shes been /said/ #to defeat strong opponents and theres a /reason/ shes smokers right hand but odas allergic to letting women fight onscreen. bc hes a coward #im taking her away from him im taking away his tashigi rights. Girl You Are So Cool To Me #this is like. gdjgffgjdhf between tashigi and kuina oda does this thing where hes like. ''what if i almost engaged with being a woman in a #heavily gendered society in an interesting way and i /talked/ about doing so but then never follow up on that. so rather than creating a #story that includes gender norms for the purpose of questioning them i just /talked/ about questioning them but then reinforced them with my #starring cast of characters bc im incapable of writing a woman who isnt Dainty. what then.“ and what happens then is i Bite him #and by 'allergic to letting women fight onscreen' i mean. women can only fight women and if theyre NOT fighting women they still have to be #Elegant or Feminine about it and occasionally a woman could defeat a Man™ but shes always gotta be Pretty about it. nami complains about #fighting and robin Only Slaps People Bc She Doesnt Like Punching :( and tashigi (whos fighting style is more traditionally. yknow. Fighty) #doesnt get to Do that often or when she Does she gets put out of commission early and its. Bro You Are So Close #head in my hands. 1pc is good i love it dont get me wrong but i could make it Better

Who IS your favorite ML character I'm curious.

this lil bitch

#listen listen #i know he's a shitty person #and a shitty cousin/brother #a good son though #but his motivations in the show are the most ambiguous #and he changes the game every time hes onscreen #to me that makes him the most interesting and the most fun #hes on his own side #meaning he wants something neither heroes or villains want #and that makes for a great character #you can tell who my favorites are by the amount i make them suffer in my fics #and last time we saw felix he was having the Worst Day of His Life #odnlb #one does not love breathing #miraculous ladybug #felix graham de vanily #felix fathom #peacock felix #argos

Unpopular opinion: I don’t want og!Loki to be in Valhalla after Thanos killed him, I want him to be the new ruler of Hel.

#to expand: this is based on the theory that Hela is his biological mother #and she died in ragnarok so naturally there needs to be a new goddess/god of death and naturally that would be her biological child #so like loki inherits the throne of the dishonourable dead and realises he has necro powers and all that #I know it’ll never happen but like #that would be a reeeally good way to still have him Around but not onscreen anymore moving forward #and it would also give him a somewhat peaceful ending while still allowing him to be #the morally questionable chaotic neutral who fills a villain image like he’s meant to <3 #also I think it would be poetic as hell if #instead of just torturing the souls or straight up ignoring them like I’m assuming hela did #he actually offers them mercy and a chance at redemption in death #like he understands what it’s like to be the bad guy and be deemed unworthy and he knows it’s not always your fault #so he works with some of them and talks to them and tries to give them a chance to honestly redeem themselves and amend their mistakes #and once they do that he sends them to Valhalla :) #so that means he has a working relationship with the upstairs #and while he’s never going to reside there permanently I’m sure they can work out a visitation or something between him and his dead family #I just think it’d be so great #let’s face it he’d never be happy spending eternity doing nothing in Valhalla #he’d rather have an active role #even though I don’t love the idea of hela as his mom #I love this idea #hela #loki #loki helason #mcu #og Loki #tag mega #kinda

This is not different from any other given day, but it is, perhaps, more Significant™ given that it is her anniversary (<-the important one), which. You know. Crying over River again, etc. etc.

#I have one (1) hobby #it is crying over the same four not-real women #💜💜💜 #her capacity for love is so much :( and it comes out in some really unhealthy ways and it makes her believe that no one else could ever #actually FEEL for her the way SHE feels :( #there's also something in here about how she's very much still A Murdergirl™ but the TYPES of violence we see her commit onscreen #and WHEN she commits them tells us a lot about her as a person but. perhaps in the future. when my brain is not solely taken up by #writing the same godforsaken fic

pokeani moments that exist purely to make Me miserable:

the line where they call ash's oshawott a throwaway pokemon in the unova league so they're just flat out saying they think it's a worthless pokemon

to thine own pokemon be true (extra angst points for me bc ambipom was my second favorite on the team at the time)

the granddaughter of the guy who trains gliscor calling gliscor pathetic and weak to her face despite gliscor being an extremely sensitive pokemon

pretty much everything about that gible

blue episode (favorite color but they made it a fetish somehow and also dewott and brionne and meowstic are all there and its so bad)

boxing heracross immediately. also that battle frontier episode where it's literally the only returning ash mon (barring torkoal i think but i dont count it bc its native to AG) to get humiliated onscreen

pidgeot returning but gliscor didn't even show up in the miniseries despite being an Actual Character

#sorry ik i keep bringing up the throwaway line but like. its SOOOOOOOOOO bad holy shit #the heracross one isnt aaaaaas bad tbf bc they really make up for it in the sinnoh league #but aside from one ep in the miniseries we never quite get an episode where oshawott proves itself in a battle #i still love that episode bc it still kinda feels like an apology for all the oshawott bashing in bw but i am a little :/ #that battling didnt even come up once #ive kiiinda eased up on gliscors benching episode bc at the end of the day it isssss pretty good to her. also its the best animated one #but its treatment like what i mentioned that still really drags it down to me #and also like. i know ppl praise gliscor being so powerful after the episode but i really dont get why we couldnt have just #had a gliscor training arc onscreen. but ig we wouldnt have that stupid ass gible plot that went nowhere now would we #but like.... we had such a huge stretch between that episode and the league. i really dont get why we couldnt have had a mini arc #where gliscor realizes shes not pulling her weight that well and really starts hauling ass #she doesnt really even sweep in the paul fight. she gets beaten immediately by ninjask #the drapion part was awesome tho yayyyy #but my point is that it wouldnt really change much if gliscor just stayed and got stronger on its own #have the bench episode be a wake up call for gliscor rather than a goodbye one and she becomes super competent #like im not just saying this bc gliscor is my favorite character in the entire show. i feel like its straight up kinda lazy and less reward #rewarding #imagine how the drapion fight could be EVEN MORE cathartic if we saw gliscor struggle and fight to get better throughout the show #as much as i like that specific battle and ash vs paul as a whole... it just kinda proves my point that sending gliscor away at all #was kind of a shitty move #like ohhhhh ash's team is all getting revenge for lake acuity yay!!!!! oh one of them was kicked off for the sake of a shitty gible plot th #which really only served to make shitty piplup bashing jokes and only actually had a conclusion in the league itself #by which time it was too late to actually do anything else with it. yeah we kicked someone off for that. but shes back now!!! #like it doesnt weaken the battle THAT much. in fact theres some value in how ash went out of his way to make sure gliscor could be there #so her defeat could also be avenged. and its still my fave battle in the whole anime. but it just proves to me how pointless that was reall #echoed voice

can y'all believe that the only time zoey ever lost onscreen was to may

#i mean. i can believe that she lost to may. but i can't believe it's actually the *only* time she's lost offscreen #her loss against nando in hearthome deserved to be onscreen and i stand by that!!! #it would've been such good character development for them both #instead of the writers going #“trust us. nando's talented and outsmarted zoey by having skills from both contests and gyms. her perspective's changed just trust us” #i love zoey and ik that her japanese name is a nod to her always being ahead of dawn (the nozomi & hikari high-speed trains) #but dare i say they made her a little too OP #let her struggle a bit!! besides twisting her ankle once (/hj but im right) #slightly unrelated but. she DESERVED to come back or at least be referenced for JN and im so so sad she never got that #im rambling now lmao. i just love zoey
