No because I was so surprised at the amount of people who think Peeta would have pressured Katniss into having kids. Like did they not understand his character at all?? If anything the MOST he would have done is ask her over the years of she felt she was ready, and then backed off when she said no. It's more likely that Katniss could tell that he pined for children by watching him interact with the kids in the district, and others (possibly Haymitch) brought the topic up with her. But Peeta forcing her or guiltily her into it? Never!
HONESTLY!! HONESTLY!!
My personal headcannon is maybe a little controversial lmaoo but I actually think that Peeta wouldn’t be in a rush to have a baby post MJ anyway?
Just like how Katniss has her reservations about having kids because of the trauma that the games inflicted on every aspect of her life, (along with a very disjointed relationship with her own mother) Peeta has his own host of things to work through before I think he’d be ready enough to admit he wants to start a family.
Once he does tho I think he’d only bring it up the once, see she wasn’t on the same page, and then he’d leave it because hey!! he never even dreamed they’d get to where they are now!! Safe!! And in love!! He doesn’t need kids to be happy he just needs her!!
So in my head it’s Katniss who starts the first real conversation about having kids once she sees just how sweet and kind he is to the little ones coming into the bakery with their parents and even then I think he’d probably drive her insane just double and triple checking that she actually wants this?? And it’s real?? They can try for a baby??
This whole idea that he would pressure her is just Peeta slander!! plain and simple!! lmaoo

"Lass, you can't blame yourself for that!" Wilhelm insisted gently, and without a second thought, he reached out and gently lay a warm hand over her cool one, brow furrowing upon hearing this-it just seemed deeply unfair of her to blame herself for what happened, to beat herself up for it. She had no way of knowing what was going to happen that night, and she shouldn't hold it against herself.
"Wil's right," June agreed, as Randall too reached out to take Emily's hand in his, giving it a gentle squeeze as his mother continued, "You shouldn't blame yourself, Emily-you...you thought you were doing right by our son, and I...I can understand that. You came from a place of love, trying to...spare him the heartache, I know. But...even when you tried to stay away, you couldn't, because you love my son. It's why you were there that night, watching over him like a guardian angel. And you were his guardian-you saved his life, and I thank you for it."
"You didn't fail me, Emily," Randall assured gently, as he pressed a loving kiss to her knuckle. "Far from it-you saved my life! Even when we were apart, I still loved you-and you still loved me, enough to keep watching out for me, even if it broke your heart to keep your distance. Your love saved me, Emily! That's...that's not failure, far from it!"

... truth be told. I was all about my predacon MegOP idea until the adhd kicked in, and now I'm pondering Megaking. Predatron?
But Megatron is still a Predacon, but has only revealed it to Soundwave. It has to change the plot for Predaking, though. Megatron is quite aware they're not dumb animals.
Will he try to convince Predaking of that and get him to transform, or does he consider him more useful as an animal?
I've seen ship art of MegaKing a few? A few times. A few.
Now, I'm assuming Shockwave doesn't know Megs is a Predacon??
It'd blow Megatron's own cover if he let the others know Predacons can transform via Preddie right? So letting everyone (including Predaking himself) think that Predacons were just animals might be his best bet.
Is there a chance this will blow up in his faceplates and lead to Predaking's reveal not only revealing Preddie has a root mode but him somehow revealing Megs? Maybe!
Maybe nobody finds out Megs is a Predacon until wayyyy later on, and in this version Megatron is less paranoid about the Predacon army because he knows he very well would be able to lead them? Maybe! I can see Predaking becoming his new subcommander for the Predacon army in this scenario (with a little bit of tussling beforehand, of course), while Shockwave n Soundwave stay his SICs for the Nemesis.

I will start this by saying I do think Vivziepop is a good creator.
But
Reading about the production of HH and Helluva Boss worries me. In Twitter, Vivziepop is alway talking about how she is tired and overworked, because she has to work on two shows at the same time.
While I do feel bad for her, I am also thinking, “why is she trying to do it all at once?” Like, if Hazbin Hotel is already a huge project to manage, why is she trying to do it while completing a completely different spinoff?
I get the feeling that this might be one of the reasons the world building in Helluva Boss is so weird. Maybe she is rushing writing each script of each episode? I don’t know if that might be true.
If it is true, it is strange she is organizing it this way. Like, she doesn’t have to produce it all at once. She is literally her own boss.
I don’t know.
What do you think?
Yes, I've mentioned this before I believe. I'd be foolish to say I don't understand the struggle, the compulsion to jump from project to project and multi-task. I do that myself.
But that isn't something you can do in a corporate setting. She is 100% overworking herself and burning out. Her tweets have concerned me, and so many others.
It wasn't even just Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss. She made that Addicted music video, and a pilot episode for Zootopia, and back then also made that Holidaze short. If she had focused on just making shorts, that would be one thing, but the fact that she has to commit to not only one show, but two, is also just not possible. It's too much to keep consistent or even separate sometimes, especially for someone who is not used to that kind of work schedule. She even does all-nighters. It's not healthy.
She might not be the boss for Hazbin Hotel in its entirety, because she sold the rights to A24, but for Helluva Boss then yes.
However, I personally don't think she rushed the Circus episode because she made this tweet a month after the release:
"I'm proud to be making shows that come directly from and deeply involve a queer perspective. It's not always a norm but it's happening more and more! The shows are for everyone, but they are rooted in what we want to see and tell!"
Instead of the show's original premise of being a dark comedy featuring Blitzo's crew in Hell and how despite being bad people, still have intriguing relationships with reason, she decided to flatten and focus on the side character Stolas for the sake of turning him into a pure-hearted baby boy who was a closeted gay that suffered for years against an evil straight woman he was forced to marry.
and that is apparently something she wanted to tell, since she wrote that episode herself. It makes it seem like she's proud to tell this "queer story" in, unfortunately, a very very poor way.
Would not be surprised if some episodes were indeed rushed, but the Circus has layers to its writing and implications. Unfortunately, Helluva Boss has lost sight of what it wants to be. I wonder if it ever knew what it wanted to be. It's gone from dark comedy to romantic drama. Helluva Boss can't write funny dark comedy. Most of the punch lines are sex jokes, swearing, and screaming. It's gotten pretty old and repetitive. Fandoms are more drawn towards romantic drama, so it feels like they attempted to merge or switch the genres to cater to fans, but they fell flat. It's ironic, because, the skimmed-down romantic drama was doing just fine until the Circus episode, where they doubled down and took it the opposite direction of where it was initially heading.
But I digress. Viv has some great ideas but needs help to implement them since she's not always the best at making those ideas work for the better. She's overworking herself through her multi-tasking and burning out, and through it all, her fellow employees are suffering for it. I hope she has learned from this experience and will know to try and focus on one show at a time from now on, or just stick to shorts to make things easier for herself.

Hey, OP from the PTSD post here :) saw your reblog and yes, dissociation (both depersonalization and derealization) can be a part of PTSD. After a person meets the criteria, there's two specifications you can also meet, and one of them is the dissociative specification.
From the DSM-V:
Dissociative Specification: In addition to meeting criteria for diagnosis, an individual experiences high levels of either of the following in reaction to trauma-related stimuli:
Depersonalization: Experience of being an outside observer of or detached from oneself (e.g., feeling as if "this is not happening to me" or one were in a dream).
Derealization: Experience of unreality, distance, or distortion (e.g., "things are not real").
PTSD is also highly comorbid with dissociative disorders like DPDR or DID, and also other conditions that can cause dissociation like BPD.
Hope this helps :)
👀 It does, thank you.
This definition is making me realize that I may have used the wrong term, actually 😅 I thought it was derealization but it might actually be depersonalization. Because he never questions his reality. He just...exits the situation as much as he possibly can, while unable to physically leave. I'll have to look at what I've written so far and do some research to compare.
Seriously, thank you so much for this.

Aemond kind of forgot about male preference primogeniture. A son generally comes before a brother and male children of the first son come before the second sons. The grandchildren of Aegon the Conqueror were considered ahead in the line of succession, over their uncle, Maegor the Cruel. After the birth of King Viserys’ many sons and grandsons, his brother, Prince Daemon, is said to have been pushed further down the line of succession.
All this is to say that even if Aegon is out of the running for kingship, his sons, Jaehaerys and Maelor, would still have a very strong claim to the throne of their grandfather, King Viserys. Prince Jaehaerys and Prince Maelor being underage doesn’t change anything; their claim is on the basis of birth and blood. So the line of succession would be: Aegon -> Jaehaerys -> Maelor -> Aemond -> Daeron. There’s no sense in Aemond saying he’s next in line unless he plans on going against those so called laws of succession his family is presently upholding (and Rhaenyra is being denied her throne on account of).
So long as the younger boys exist, Aemond would have his claim questioned, should he choose to pursue kingship for himself. It would be usurpation upon usurpation, and a complete disregard for the laws and traditions (based on precedent!!!) that the Green faction seeks to uphold. In fact, the only one who believed that an uncle should be ahead in the line succession, over the nephews, is Maegor the Cruel (who also believed that women do belong in the royal line of succession). With a single sentence, Aemond ended Otto’s/the Green’s entire career.
So much for studying history and philosophy.
