nadja: [comes up with a plan so that guillermo doesn't get killed by the baron]

nandor: [steps in front of the baron and literally begs for mercy on guillermo's behalf while clutching one of his sweaters, and audibly weeps when he thinks guillermo is dead]

nadja & nandor: [both run after the baron and cling onto his cape trying to stop him]

me:

I'm sorry but are you telling me this scumbag Ares is abusing Clarisse??

This god, is abusing his daughter who is much less being and he threatens her??

Ares is literally one step to be one on one with Zeus in my list.

#bro rereading is a hard job like am I supposed to hate Clarisse during this? #while she's enduring all this stress? #like she finally got offered a quest that can bring her glory and she thrives to prove herself to her father (whom is the god of war btw) #and like these two other kids just jump right in and ruin everything for her #like her father is INSUFFERABLE and he literally threatened her #I'm not a big Clarisse person but this point #but it's hard not to sympathise when a kid is treated like this #clarisse la rue #sea of monsters #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson and the olympians #pjo

Guillermo "letting the sun shine on Nandor's coffin" "I keep stakes and holy water in my minifridge if I ever feel disrespected" "I'm faking being trapped in a cage and using what I hear Nandor say to convince him to not kill me and also lying about being hypnotized" "escaping from a room where I could take a well deserved nap to use the cloak of duplication to talk to some random woman and calling Nandor my best friend after being locked up by him twice" "forcing Nandor to come home from the Wellness center even if at that point it was delusional not harmful" "fighting him because he wants to leave me and I have to show that he would be nothing without me" "enabling him to pursue a clearly flawed process of getting a lover and standing by him morphing Marwa into someone else and only getting mad when he interferes with my relationship" "calling the vampires my family after all the mistreatment I suffered and the innumerable deaths and agony I witnessed in the last decade and wanting to be exactly like them" de la Cruz isn't as much of a victim as people make him out to be, he literally quits being familiar adjacent at the end of season 4 because he’s BORED, my man is a menace he's a cold blooded serial killer that would sell out anyone anytime, that after being accepted by his biological family of vampire hunters for being gay and after Nadja contemplates killing them he still chooses the vampires over them, he's insane, he knows his situation and how bad it looks and he doesn’t care because he’s being himself in the most truthful way. this is who he is.

#Guillermo is the voice of reason the pov and the straight man of the show #but he's surrounded by amoral inhuman monsters #it's more a testament of how deranged he is that he can coexist with them so easily #he's more a vampire than a human and has been for quite sometime #he operates with their logic that's why not all of his actions seem resonable #it's such a disservice to his character to say that he doesn't know what he wants and he could be treated better #because he thrives in this environment #the best man to a vampire that resuscitated 37 people and killed 36 on a whim and married a brainwashed person #the accountant to a vampire nightclub of a woman that wanted to kill him a year ago and nailed him inside a coffin #and co-parent to a creature that crawled from the chest of a vampire #wants to live a normal life bc he would get treated better by people that he would consider if they would be a good snack for his vampires #What We Do in the Shadows #wwdits #guillermo de la cruz #the babygirlification of Guillermo makes me sad bc he's the one character that doesn't deserve it #he wants to be worse he wants to be seen as scary and powerful

Based on what i remember, animanga Zoro never undermines Sanji cooking. Yes, they fight a lot and Zoro picked on Sanji a lot but he never mock/undermines Sanji's cooking nor his role. Which is different than OPLA Zoro who keeps saying that Sanji's role is not important, on how he keeps undermine Sanji's skill (the sandwich and it's alright comment)

Or am i remembering it wrong?

#opla #one piece #roronoa zoro #sanji #i just think with animanga sanji low self worth established he won't survive LA Zoro comments #however LA sanji is thriving despite LA zoro comments so maybe LA Sanji is in much better condition than animanga sanji was

Why Garnacho is most hated Man U player?

Hi anon! so im not a man utd fan but im a fan-in-law bc of my mutuals. sorry if u wanted an answer specific to garnacho but gonna generalize to all the young menaces.

ive noticed a recent trend in football where youngsters can't be youngsters anymore. they must be the perfect player both on the pitch and off the pitch instantly. they should play clean and nice and look pretty for the fans. it's like there's no fun in the game anymore. and everything is perfectly curated for media/marketing.

there was a long twt thread during the wc22 when jude bellingham let out "you f*ckin c*nt" really loudly and ppl were "disappointed" and saying "we thought he was better than this". of course most ppl thought it was funny bc sh*thousery is always funny but he received a surprising amount out backlash for it??? as if the ppl who type it r perfect angels themselves.

another example is pablo gavi who is getting a lot of crap for his "die for the badge" rough housing and overall dramatics. even as a madridista i love watching him play bc it reminds me of the good ol' days of la liga where there was more spirit in the game and more passion for ur club.

it's like the idea of sh*thousery from young players is not allowed anymore. i mean ramos and pepe used to get a lot of crap for it from opposing teams fans. but not as much as im seeing fans of the player's OWN teams. bc tell me why some barça fans on twt were saying to sell gavi??? WHY??? LOOK AT THE PASSION HE HAS FOR UR CLUB!!! KEEP HIM!!! thankfully these seem to be a minority voice.

same w garnacho. i see man utd fans defending him but u'll see most of the "insults" being about his immaturity as if the guy isn't 18yrld...

bottom line is the common theme of these players that are disliked or get lots of criticism is that they're young and like to play it a bit rough/talk smack.

@cryingforcrocodiles if ud like to add any specific man utd info pls do!!

#anon #asks #im bias but i looooooove a lil bit of fighting 🤭🤭 #makes the games more interesting #gavi wouldve THRIVED in early 2000 serie A or 2010 la liga #jude has the perfect media curated image but he lets out one swear and suddenly it's like he betrayed yall🙄🙄 #and jude isn't even considered a menace #let these boys live!!

what poisonous flowering plant are you?

lily of the valley. This is the poison of giving too much. You feel yourself emptying out, dizzying, discoloring-- until you fear you will fade entirely and wither away. You have always had to give. You never had a choice before. They pluck your flowers for their beauty, they trample your leaves carelessly, they pull out your roots by the fistful and berate you for daring to grow. And now that you have a grove to spread out in, your rhizomes tangle and curl in on themselves. When cruelty is all you've ever known, thriving seems impossible. But the answer is not to make yourself small and offer every lovely thing you are to the world in the hopes it will have mercy on you. The answer is to let yourself dare to thrive for thriving's sake, to grow in the wild ways you wish to-- and to do that for yourself for once.

#oc: deputy sybille la roux #'you have always had to give. you never had a choice before.' #'when cruelty is all you've ever known thriving seems impossible' #'...grow in the wild ways you wish to' #mmmmmm something something jacob setting her free #but yeah. the cruelty of her father made a lasting impact on her #and constantly putting herself second to her mom. her brother. hope county.... #her mom and brother she really didn't mind doing and they never asked for more than she gave (she gave a lot) #but the county? woof. she gives and they take and take and take and take #but jacob. in his weird way. sees what she is. pushes her to become what he knows she is #and doesn't as for anything more or less than that #anyway so sorry for being so late to these tag games my brain just has not been having it recently #anyways i love this meiker for her a lot if only because the doll's legs are so long

Folk will drive themselves mad if they gauge the momentum of any subject, never mind social justice issues, based on how many posts about the subject you see on your dashboard or timeline.

Especially when, at this point, there's active suppression going on every tech bro platform we're using. The number of posts you see anywhere is not indicative of something 'losing steam' or being treated like a trend. At least, not any more. (And not to me.)

#greatrunners meta #media manipulation #social media #and tumblr has more or less proven time and again that its the absolutely last place where any subject #not centered on the comfort of yt people and their entitlement to ignore the suffering of others #will thrive like it might elsewhere ah la TT or TWTR

SHES BACK

#tinakitten #ohhh she’s in La she’s Thriving!

[kaykoko]

Also I do think Guillermos abuela wore the rainbow cardigan to show she supported him. Like she didn't know 100% but I think maybe she thought him seeing that would let him know its okay. Sometimes acts of love are said in subtle ways. So shout out to abuela for being an ally💕🏳️‍🌈

[xitsmentalillnessinnitx]

I loved all the Guillermo and Nandor content in tonight’s ep. Though I did kinda want Nandor to leave with Guillermo’s body and for Guillermo to fake dead for a bit to scare Nandor but that’s just bc I’m greedy and love some toxicity. Like imagine seeing Nandor freak out for a second that he actually killed the love of his life… I mean his greatest companion of 13 years after all that.
