#ah yes so romantic

[helpallthenamesaretakenblog]

plot twist: when they adapt ttc, percy and annabeth dont ballroom dance at olympus at the end. instead, percy delicately holds out his hand. he asks annabeth for a dance. annabeth shyly says yes and takes his hand. and then it cuts to annabeth with cooling glasses freestyling while percy beatboxes

What can I say? They're my favorite.

#twdg #twdg clouis #clouis #twdg clementine #twdg louis #sometimes they creep back into my mind and i'm like 'ah yes' like a crow admiring a pretty stone they found years ago and kept #also thank you pi for the screenshots. i used to have a whole folder full of them but that was when i was doing themed nights #the source for these is me i just have a random document full of dynamics and ship things i enjoy because.....i dunno i like keeping track #and so many of them apply to clouis but there's also an overlap of with clouis and rose/alistair [my warden from origins and alistair] like #alistair's romance route is like an evolved matured and extended version of clouis sksksks gee i wonder if i have a type #look you present me with a character who deflects with humor and isn't taken seriously by the rest of the group and the longer you know the #the more you realize how high they've built a wall around themselves and how *unwell* they really are and how they're not as sunshine #as they present themselves and also they avoid leadership and responsibility until they grow closer with someone who pushes them #and they end stronger and more balanced as a person while finding the affection they've craved #and also there's the daddy issues #present me with that character as a romantic option and i'm in no questions asked okay i don't want the mean broody one that's meh to me #i want the one that has every reason to be broody but chooses not to be because they have a completely different defense mechanism #and a warped sense of themselves and self-esteem issues they leave unaddressed until forced to face them #i'm just saying i'm aware that i have a type i'm always going to gravitate toward clouis nearly checks all the boxes #also the lack of clouis these days? my crops are thirsty and i have too many ongoing projects to do anything about it other than this sksks #so until i make time to finish my long ass louis/clouis analysis this is the best i can provide for now

*giggles* angel and his favorite little demon danger noodle 🐍

(Because I need some wholesomeness after whatever the heck season 2 was.)

#ineffable husbands #good omens fanart #good omens #aziraphale #crowley #ah. I sure am glad that season 2 ended so nicely. so wholesome and sweet and angst free. #yes. it was so sweet and gentle and romantic. I don’t want to take a bath with a toaster at all after this. hahaha. *breaks down in tears*

watching the flashback scenes in redding weddy caressing my screen while a single silent tear falls, like a mourning army wife in the 40s with a locket. which is appropriate given the subject matter.

#truly it makes me feel like im sighing sitting at the window #its raining #i can basically recite the whole thing #all 5 minutes of the most gut wrenching romantic drama of my generation #'ah lieutenant havers' 'communique from hq for you sir- marked urgent' 'this'll be my request for a service revolver' #like do you get it. #'exciting times havers' 'i know we do vital work here sir.. but i'd like to get involved in the fighting.' #'i put in for a transfer... there's talk of a north africa front' #'ah.. yes. well. i completely understand of course' <- the most devastated man thats ever lived #'ah havers! i was just thinking about you actually' #'im afraid im leaving you sir. at 1800 hours this evening' 'so soon?' #'i shall miss you havers.... by which i mean of course that we. shall miss you.' #the 'keep it under your hat' poster.. it KILLS me. it makes me ACHE. #reckless talk costs lives or w/e it says. every fit man wanted. #like... got they did such a good job with those scenes it makes me wail #bbc ghosts #capvers

I might be ~quirky~ for this (welcome to my twisted mind and etc) but I genuinely have so much fun with shipping nowadays, ever since I chose to be singleship for each muse. I feel like my adhd has never allowed me to pour even half as much care and attention into a ship as I'd have loved to when I had multiple ones at the same time per muse, so being able to focus on a single romantic dynamic per muse really feels like a weight off my shoulders

#* ooc. / posts. #I also know my adhd is all over the place so at times I may go a few months w/o bringing that specific muse (and thus ship) up #(unless you approach me in dms; in which case my mind typically instantly goes !!! on the muse & ship) #so I'm INCREDIBLY touched whenever my ship partners agree to be singleship w me. It's truly such an honor and blessing to me #and I feel like it's much easier for my muse to get very attached when their romantic attention only goes to a single person; #so you can best believe that from the moment we start shipping your portrayal will ALWAYS. and I mean /ALWAYS/ be intertwined with mine #doesn't matter if you drop the muse or leave tumblr or stop writing altogether. your muse will Always be my muse's special someone #I've had tons of ships where my partner disappeared off the face of the earth one day and yet all I've done was change 'singleship' #to 'noship' bc my muse's heart to this day (several irl years later) continues to be with their portrayal; REFUSING to look at anyone else #Granted this is also why I'm so picky with shipping; in the sense that I let my muse lead the way til they fall in love #and only THEN do I ask the mun if they're fine w our muses being a thing (and thus being singleship w me) #I used to say yes to people just asking to ship and while I know that's a neat option too; I simply. Cannot do that these days ADGHSAJDSDK #nothing against anyone nor against that route; but I've had a good share of ships that crumbled or made me lose muse bc my muse wasn't #feeling the ship. so I'm no longer going ahead unless the muse falls first and makes ME start shipping it rather than the other way around #and that decision has unironically made me feel so light and comfortable here AHDSAJDSKDJ #AH NEY WAYZ!! I need to be sedated bc why am I awake at 11 am. I HAVE NOT SLEPT.

#dont let me rant about the baka darou translations it wont be pretty #ITS PLATONIC!!!!!! ITS ABOUT HIS FRIENDS AND HIS KIDS!!!!!!!!

I wish all sontails shippers go to hell no matter what

#ramblings #i'm annoyed at stupid shipping things again SORRYYYYY #but seriously idk how you can look at those two and think 'ah yes a totally ok romantic couple' #they're brothers..... and tails is like 8....... stop being weird........ #idc if this shows up in the tag or whatever tbh. they need to become normal #to think someone made a whole week event for this ship.... insane #kinda wish i could host a sonic and tails SIBLING week or something like that. out of spite #and just bc their sibling dynamic is fun. there's never enough wholesome bro content #but i don't think it'd get much traction. i don't have that big of a following #i also suck at actually participating in art challenges like that. and at coming up with themes for stuff. so yeah lmao #tho maybe someone else could do it idk

Employee 416, with varying levels of bumpscocity (Patreon)

#Doodles #The Stanley Parable #TSP #Employee 416 #My very first Stanley Parable OCs hhhhh #No Sinister doesn't count he's just a slightly different Stanley lol - plus my subconscious came up with him! #These two were on purpose - I've been wanting to make a TSP OC for years now! I just never had inspiration strike until now #I was so sure I was going to pick a random number and give 'em a quick doodle and be like Ye :D My little guy #Stanley's a little guy my little guy's a little guy it's all little guys! Perfect and fitting! #Lol it's never that easy is it #I ended up with two! And with an Employee who was specifically highlighted in-game!! Ah! #416 gave me ideas what can I say lol #Two specifically and I really can't decide which I like better hmmmm #They both got the ponytail treatment tho lol #Employee 416 being all about the Figleys but not at all Employee 427 is very funny to me lol #''How dare you sully the good name of Stanfiglurines by comparing them to that dork'' haha #And then there's the exact opposite - someone who admires Stanley from a distance but never up close and personal #Maybe they would've before the Narrator erased everyone?? Although the Figure Hunt goes on during the absense of everyone! #So he's set up in a kind of liminal state of existence haha #Although I think his feelings aren't exactly romantic - or platonic! A little closer to platonic but hmmm #Either way Employee 416 v1 does not appreciate v2 being so hype about him lol - it's supposed to be about the figures man!

So tired of the silly funny quips man being paired up with the local Badass No-nonsense woman obligatory hetero love interest. Like, no! Stop! Give him a silly girl once in a while. A lovely little jokster. Only then we'lll achieve Feminism

#this is mostly about jaswit and caleo tbh #but it is a larger trend #its so annoying like #Ah yes lets pair the lesbian coded badass to our comuc releif so he can soften her #or This silly character needs a love interest ASAP! lets put him with the woman that finds him annoying and is constantly mean to him! #So Romantic! #character tropes

[jumpscaregoose]

they're rivals they're in love it's unrequited it's platonic they're best friends they tried to kill each other they would die for each other they're literally soulmates they're in a one-sided love-hate relationship. I didn't say their names but they popped into your head didn't they

#shaman king #this post is about yoh and ren btw #so insane about them I googled the homestuck quadrants to deconstruct whatever the fuck they have going on and it WORKED #horo and ren I can actually be articulate about but them? NOPE you get GIBBERISH #horo and ren is just ah yes romantic rivalry whereas yoh and ren is *tbh creature jpeg*

this is because im a massive nerd but i think if you're going to write an a/b/o you have to at least have a solid understanding of wolf behaviour and biology if you dont at least keep up to date with the latest research. yes this about how people always write wolves as ambush hunters as if they aren't literally persistence predators

#pleaseeee stop making wolves pounce #pleaseeeeeeee #the pounce you are thinking of is when they sniff out a burrow underground and they're trying to get in there #similar to a fox #but the wolf hunting strategy is to run their prey into exhaustion so they're too weak to fight back when the wolves descend #also wolves do not have a killing bite like a lion or tiger #its very romantic to believe they do but wolves really do just start eating their prey alive as soon as its down #sorry this is like my pet peeve in a/b/o. #i get the trope is inherently ridiculous but come on. lets hold hands and make an effort #also wolves cant bark i dont know why people have no trouble imagining a wolf barking but. they cant #barking is a domestic dog thing #also solid black wolves are an indicator if interbreeding with domestic dogs #which would be fun to talk abt in a fic..... if people would bother doing a wiki search #ah yes your big strong black wolf alpha is . not even a pure wolf </3 #devastating </3 #ok im done being annoying please see the unfollow button at the top of my blog!

i feel such an incredibly frustriating yearn

#when i went to ecuador everyone was so warm #like strangers to you probably not since its dangerous and crime rates and stuff but the general love and care dynamics are so different #like im super anxious and closed up and im not very touchy nor do i say a lot but it wasnt ALWAYS like this and i thought oh maybe i just #grew up but also maybe i just moved to canada #like yeah canadians are super nice but friendships are so strict and dynamics are so like. idk its different #I mean there's obviously the fact that i havent' met a lot of people and that i am closed off and stuff but at least in my old school in #Ecuador friendships are the same and theres boy/girl friendships and its not romantic and hugs are normal and #ive messed up so many guy friendships because of that like im “oh my god yes new guy friend unlocked” and sudenly ive been sending them #mixed signals all along even tho im like yeah we chillin and ahhhhh #like #if i got shit wasted drunk here id probably get filmed and posted on the gc #but in ecuador i did get terribly drunk and i was with a friend (guy) and it was a pool party #this party i did not KNOW it was a pool party so i got thrown in with jeans and all but i got super drunk and everyone was kinda drunk and #there was a point in which he like sat me down and kept giving me water and like its just that care that #ah in canada it could never #at least not at this age i dont think #not at my school at least lmao #like in everything theres no judgement and theres a general friendship thats really good #god i miss it #but i never really had it #yk #like im gonna talk a little more abt this party k #it was the whole graduating year bc we're seniors and they all knew each other #nobody knew we were getting in the pool but by the time i got there EVERYOEN was in #like in jeans and school uniform and all #and people were like DRAGGING YOU #like it was all laughs and skjfhjkdhjjhkdhjkdfsjkhdsjhkdsfkjdfjkhdfs #like physically throwing you in the pool #obv no harm bc it wasnt deep but like everyone was just #like bridal style and wrestling and there were drinks and music

I’ve just finished binging Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and like I am crying about it but frustratingly not for y’know right reasons connected to the actual meaning of the show but instead because Rebecca and Greg’s not-date at the end of the penultimate episode hit me so hard over the head with Deep Longing and Yearning that I have to curl up and cry to combat it

#like I am aware these feelings are contrary to the thesis of the show!!! I know!!! I am so good at knowing!!! #the feelings are supposed to go in their feelings box to be ignored indefinitely!!! #due to a combo of ‘getting my life more smooth’ and ‘don’t wish for things you know you can’t have’!!! #and yet. the yearning. it gets me sometimes. especially when watching what to me counts as the most romantic thing in the world. #(ie ‘just being together and knowing each other as you go about doing everyday things’) #ah well #I’ll get over it I always do #ANYWAYS great great show genuinely so fantastic I’ll have deeper thoughts on it later but damn spectacular #also glad that in the little bit I’ve watched so far of the live special that rachel bloom does say that yes West Covina is #not in the inland empire because damn was that bugging the hell out of me #brain thoughts

Maybe this is very ace and very aro of me but… the biggest way to convince me of a ship? While keeping these characters in-character? Time.

And I don’t mean thousands of words for tens of chapters, calling it “slow burn” but in reality it’s just the course of maybe a month in-fic-time MAX until they eat eachother’s faces off with snogging or clothes miraculously fly around the room in a vortex. Are…allos really like that?! Feels fake.

I mean actual time. Brief moments. Passage of days to weeks to months to years. Tangible character growth and a shift in what sort of affection then relationship these blorbos are experiencing.

There’s a reason why one-shots are often better than multichap with this sorta thing.

#tiger’s musings #fandom #…yeahhh this is indirectly about Dreamling again #found a fic that seems to be ‘ah. now THIS is better. this I can see’ #when the oversaturation + what feels completely ooc for them just. makes me almost dislike the ship at this point #like. in canon? they are PRE preRelationship. at best. Dream JUST admitted Yes We’re Friends #they’ve. quite literally. gotta grow into THAT first. THEN be ‘it’s requited they’re just idiots’ or discuss it or whatever #and platonic relationships are just. so good. so rich. give my soul a large mug of warm soup in a way romantic ships just never will #there is. so much meaning in platonic. #so…yeah. for ANY ship I need to see THAT connection grown and developed and repaired #but especially for these two

if i look into the owl house tag and see untagged huntlow again i’m gonna scream

#i dislike it because their dynamic is just friends to me #willow treats him like she does any new friend #hunter can have an unreciprocated crush! #i'm not saying he doesn't deserve romantic connection because of his abuse i'm saying he needs friends more #i'm tired of people taking their friend interactions and going 'ah yes because of romance this works' #let hunter's worry come out of being her friend!! god #sorry for ranting i'm just so tired #y'all im trying to AVOID IT but you keep.
