#all off screen this chapter

[fujii-draws]

OKAY! Chatot rant in tags below! Read at your own discretion.

#okay starting from the beginning of where ppl usually dislike him. apple woods chapter. #he doesn’t give hero/partner the CHANCE to explain themselves despite them being relatively good recruits up until that point. #and that legit might be my only gripe with that chapter bc!!! stories need conflict! I LIKE the conflict in apple woods!!! #hero and partner being punished so something they didn’t do! #the misunderstanding! how team skull (Skuntank) actually outplays the main duo with a clever yet rotten trick. I LOVE that it segways into- #one of the more sweeter scenes of guild members looking out for eachother. I LIKE APPLE WOODS CONFLICT. #but chatot just. not giving them a chance. is so dumb. #I’d personally fix this by having a lil montage of hero/partner fucking up on jobs. A LOT. and chatot giving them a pass every time. #and let the perfect apple incident BE the one where he puts his foot down and doesn’t listen to them. bc he’d given them loads of chances. #and doesn’t want to hear any excuse. #but yeah. I legit dont mind him during that chapter except for that really stupid and frustrating moment. #NOW. CHAPTER 17. #UGGGGHHH WHERE DO I BEGIN #Him not believing hero and Partner about Grovyle and the future being in ruin? FINE. ACTUALLY GOOD. BC CHATOT WOULD BE SKEPTIC. #IT FITS HIS CHARACTER!! #BUT WHAT DOES SUCK. IS HIM GOING ‘Dusknoir isn’t the bad guy. he didn’t do anything wrong’ #WHEN HE LITERALLY KIDNAPPED HERO AND PARTNER RIGHT I N F R O N T OF HIM. #(​NO LITERALLY. HIS CHARACTER IS IN THE FRONT ROW WHEN IT HAPPENED.) #and him. having the GALL to tell hero and partner they must’ve been ‘seeing things’ and downplaying the HELL they went through. #despite them being missing for hours/days. his own guild recruits. and his angry sprite showing up. #like. I think that’s when I genuinely despised him. #that and him going ‘OH I BELIEVED YOU THE WHOLE TIME HEEHOO :)’ shit was so fucking annoying. #just playing it off as a joke the second the guild started to believe hero and partner. #IMAGINE IF HE W A S ACTUALLY TESTING THE GUILD’S TRUST. SHOWCASING HIM AS THE MORE RESPONSIBLE AND RESPECTFUL RIGHT HAND OF THE GUILD. #and yes. Brine cave he saves hero and partner. but at that point I just didn’t care anymore. #he fucked those two over so much. that I didn’t care what ‘valiant’ sacrifice he had. #and he grills Team Skull for what they did OFF SCREEN. they couldn’t even give us THAT. #<<< THAT or him outright saying sorry would’ve been nice. IKIK his ‘actions’ or whatever but. #eughh again this is all imo. I’m not trying to make people hate him or change their mind. #I’ll get into positives in the second post cause I’m running out of tags

Anyone! Is afo deluding himself into thinking that izuku will never get strong enough to kill him head on, or does he have some scheme planned or something?

Oh, that's pure denial on his part. Izuku is sixteen and managed to give him one hell of a fight while half dead. The more quirks he gets and the closer AFO is to being killed and since he doesn't want to consider his eventual unaliving, which will probably happens with Izuku's teeth ripping his throat, he is still hanging on to the fact that he is stronger and surely, since he will keep collecting quirks, Izuku will never bridge the gap of power between them.

#AFO can get all the quirks he wants but in the end Izuku will ALWAYS be better than him at using his limited amount of quirks #But please do assume that AFO in the next chapters is working out like crazy (off screen) so his son doesn't catch up to him too soon #anyone fic

Sorryyyy for dropping off the face of the earth; got kinda shy after that last post but mostly I’ve just been writing though I cannot guarantee that any of that will ever be finished (also I’m very insecure about my writing AAAH). Figure I might as well post the valentines I had done (like two months late lol); interestingly this turned into more of a hand lettering exercise than I was expecting lol

Breathing Gods is DONE.

#or at the least it's fully drafted #it will go through some rounds of editing but all the chapters are down and their sequence of events should be solid! #today i killed a god and discovered that sanctified flesh ie Herald flesh tastes kinda like the god that the Herald is bound to #meaning that Regent Ilaina tastes bad! #“who is tasting Regent Ilaina Gail” #: ) #look just rest assured that sometime off-screen #Meparik will hear about this and try to convince Crislie/Navaeli to taste his blood FOR SCIENCE to see if he tastes like the Romne #(he does)

i really enjoy how kanoko functions as a deconstruction of the "best friend who quietly holds a one sided crush on the mc but never takes action and is content to let her get together with someone else" trope that's really personified by Cardcaptor Sakura's Tomoyo. Yuri is my job says actually living like that would twist you into a total mess of person with SO many issues. It says the only person who would willingly choose to live like that would be someone so isolated, deeply anxious, and terrified of rejection that they basically live in fear.

This isn't to hate on CCS Tomoyo of course, that series was a childhood favorite and foundational for me as a person. But i did always find it kind of odd how Tomoyo was so ready and willing to accept that her feelings would never be returned. She has a few moments where she seems a bit melancholy about Sakura being straight and knowing her confession would be rejected if she ever tried it, but overall she's weirdly at peace with it for a girl her age. She happily steps aside for Syaoran. We are told that as long as the person she loves is happy, she's happy.

Kanoko is basically trying to be Tomoyo, but it turns out thats kind of a messed up mindset to try and maintain long term if you dont plan to move on from your crush. i particularly liked when she said her dream is to be hime's maid in her mansion when she becomes a rich trophy wife and sumika looked at her like girl, what. Far from being a saint like Tomoyo we see that kanoko is a sad lonely teenager clinging to the one happy thing in her life. And while thats a lot messier and darker, it also feels a lot more realistic.

#watashi no yuri wa oshigoto desu! #yuri is my job! #kanoko mamiya #spoilers #yuri is my job spoilers #i really loved and hated how this recent arc has fleshed her out #(hated in this context meaning it was really well written bc i was yelling at the screen for her to stop lol) #she's come to cling to sumika almost as hard as she does hime #so it makes sense that she'd become desperate when sumika cuts her off #and causes her to cross the line and do something as messed up as manipulate sumika like she has #and the saddest part is that in the latest chapters you can see signs that she's really starting to like her #but i dont know if sumika will still want to be with her when all this shakes out #judging by the end of the latest chapter. well. as i said in that other post. #you're almost certainly so dumped kanoko sorry

Out of curiosity has AFO (the original) ever, on screened killed anyone? I knows he has killed but have we seen him kill? He’s tried to kill people like Jeanist and lady nagant but they are both still alive. So has he actually killed anyone that has not just been implied?

For the big bad of the series it’s kinda strange we haven’t seen him actually kill someone, just seriously maimed or off screen/implied.

#all for one #bnha #boku no hero academia #the only person I know he kind of on screen killed was nana and even that was done semi off screen with an explosion #plus that was a spin off chapter idk if we’ve ever seen him off someone in the main series

I decided to do an "epistolary" chapter for the Flannel prompt chapter in "My Love is an Apple Pie," and I've been having so much fun writing out text messages between them.

K: Can I come over after this? S: Oh, you'll come alright. K: JFC Shiro K: U can't do that when I'm with people!!! !! S: Sorry. K: No ur not S: ... not really, no. Especially if it gets you here faster.

#sheith #shiro x keith #keith kogane #takashi shirogane #vld #voltron #sheith in autumn #ahem #spoilers I suppose for tomorrow's chapter though it all happens off screen #Shiro over chat is MUCH more bold than Shiro in person #I will die on that hill #OG Starlight

Finally read grrm's Blood of the Dragon story (basically just the early drafts of Dany's aGoT chapters in their own story) and am both apalled and unsurprised that he originally made her a whole year younger than she was in the books.

#like. ugh. really? #gross old man #daenerys targaryen #tho i am surprised that the only material difference is the house with the red door being in tyrosh #interesting that it was moved to braavos #we know the sealord of braavos was involved in the arianne - viserys marriage plot #and the fact that arya's chapters have him as a sick old man makes me think we'll get some deathbed confessions #c'mon grrm we have to #you can't imply he's got all this info and just have him die off screen

[problemswithbooks]

I just caught up and while I am not as thrilled as others that the Todofam "finally got agency" and Dabi's misery was understood by their big quirk use moment, the thing that really made my jaw drop was the way Midnight's death and it's effect was minimized to build a generic understanding with the enemy in a rushed fight. It felt worse than whatever the heteromorph racism angle was. Maybe because the spinoff had me grow fond of Midnight's character.

Oh, yeah that was a weird, very out of place moment. I wouldn't say it was as bad as the heteromorph racism thing because that was actually insulting to RL issues, Hori clearly didn't research at all before he wrote it, but it's not great.

The main issue I think is that it was unearned in every sense of the word and slapped in there to tie up a loose end.

Midnight's death was handled terribly from the get go, with her being killed off screen by a nobody villain. Then it was only really brought up maybe twice in passing. Despite the kids crying over her corpse they didn't talk about it afterwards really and we never got any moment where her death was relayed to Izuku or the other 1A members not present to see her body.

It becomes even more of an issue that Mic and Aizawa didn't get much of a moment to really reflect on it either despite how close they were shown to be with her in the spin-off.

To have Mina suddenly understand the villain that killed her doesn't hold any narrative weight. He was a nobody and Mina never showed real drive to find who killed Midnight anyway. The villain who killed her has no reason to have done so, given she was pretty much helpless when he and his guys offed her. In fact he seemed to kill her just because he could.

It does nothing for the story, and to be honest her death was entirely unnecessary, and seems to have been done only to give the war arc more weight by killing off more then background characters. Cutting it and just having her be incapacitated like Gran Torino to take her out of the story would have worked better.

#ask #thanks for the ask! #bnha #bnha spoilers #bnha midnight #she really deserved better #tbh her entire character and story is the biggest prove of Hori's sexism #which again doesn't mean he's a terrible person #or hates women #but he clearly didn't see how badly he portrayed her given that he was raised in a sexist culture 9as we all are) #like even the way she died is really off putting and i just don't think he saw it due to being a guy #but to have a female character be killed off screen after a group of men surround her #while she is mildly incapacitated #does make it look like implied rape #especially when we don't get a look at her body afterwards #like that was clearly not his intent #but given how many people thought that after that chapter #is evidence that it was poorly handled #and had bad implications that i think most woman writers would have picked up on #and would have told him to avoid if they'd been asked for their opinion

Okay, I got back to writing WBTL yesterday and now I think this story could’ve been a lot better if I didn’t write it from Valerio’s POV.

#Personal #Was Born To Lead #I’m not saying I should have erased his character #I just think it would have been better if the readers knew him as a wholesome teacher for a longer time? #He can’t rest until people know his secret so there’s going to be a reveal~ #and I think it would have been a lot more impactful if the readers knew about him as much as Gabe does #Yeah in that case I probably would have kept Emilio and his suspicions towards Valerio to make a foreshadowing or something #I just really think that I messed up Valerio with all my ‘he’s actually good but his trauma makes him do terrible things’ attidute #Becuase at least at the beginning of this story I wanted him to be sympathetic akhdnfk #And I wrote like two paragraphs in the new chapter about how much Gabe loves and admires Valerio #And really it would’ve been a lot more emotional if Valerio was indeed a kind and harmless teacher #Otherwise it just seems funny and fake #I even know why I expanded this story from Valerio’s perspective so much he was the character I thought a lot off-screen #and I suppose I just wanted to unleash all those ideas as soon as possible #Becuase really the scene when Emilio finds out Valerio’s secret and the scene afterwards when Valerio hears the voices in his head #was literally the first scene I wrote for that chapter before I divided it into two parts #I wanted to write it so much and I did and published it #Ah and in that case most of the chapter would’ve been like two times shorter lmao #Although in that case Emilio probably wouldn’t have been as developed as now so idk #I just still feel insecure about this story at times especially when I think about the things I could do different but well #I’ll try to overcome it I guess #As I said in the new chapter #As a strategist you have to think several moves ahead #if you mess up it’s bad of course but it means you have a new start to properly think everything through again #This is Ximena about chess lol #But I messed up Valerio and this is the fact

Not another moment

Friendship awkwardness ensues, but not the cute kind. Riza tries to reason. Charlotte has a new best friend.
