Shoutout to one of my favorite Blue Lock beefs. No cunning, no grace, no restraint with these two. Just throwing hands ON SIGHT. God bless.

also shoutout to Shidou for being the only person who actually makes Rin lose his composure like that (and so easily too). king

((this post by @bluelock-textposts inspired me))

#yes yes i'm making a nagi and barou one next #every time I see that panel of shidou blowing a kiss to rin that's in the meme I remeber this one tweet that's like #“rin better than me because if shidou blew me a kiss I would simply have folded right then and there” #i think shiodu likes rin actually. he's just likes to throw hands more lol #anyway I know it's all “hahaha shidou and rin beef” but also I #have a 1400 word essay sitting in my drafs about these two and how they embody the two very different philosophies that are at the core of #many of the great conflicts in this manga #and how what I believe shidou's life was like before blue lock vs rin's life before blue lock causes them to treat each other like this #and how sae comes into play and the very complicated and meaningful relationship between these three people #and what him choosing shidou over rin means in terms of sae's own character and beliefs and attidute towards the sport #and why he chose shidou even though sae clearly loves his brother and wants him to succeed (and I can't believe ppl think otherwise) #anyway #why is their fighting lowkey sexy #shidou ryusei #itoshi rin #mine

half of the hate for kurt literally just boils down to "a gay kid who loves musical theater?? in MY 'kids who love musical theater' show??? stereotype!!!"

#glee #kurt hummel #my thoughts #that i had while watching hsmtmts and imagining what bad things people said about carlos or seb alsjfslkdf #i dont wanna know #but fr like #yes lots of gay people love musical theater and we're doing a show about musical theater and you dont wanna see any gay characters? #or any gay characters who like musical theater? in the musical theater show? that you chose to watch? #sounds like a skill issue to me #watch a different show #or stop being homophobic #anyway all kurt hate is either that or people insulting chris which also earns you a one way ticket to hell alksjflkdsfd

Sagau w/ an impostor would be so simple with me because the characters can easily tell the fake apart from the real

Mostly because the fake would probably be graceful n shit

Meanwhile the real one keeps picking up every single sweet flower, wandering around to random places and quietly walking past sleeping hilichurls because it'd be rude to wake them up!

Like the characters would have to put up w/ me cooing at the sleeping, snoring hilichurls 😭 like no way am I waking them up

No but really, I can't even ambush the sleeping once, if I need to kill them I at least wake them up before the fight akdhsksj

the thing is that the characters don’t really know what the (creator?) is like, so even if you and the imposter were entirely different people, it’d be difficult to see who’s real and who’s fake because, well, they don’t know you as a person. in fact, because the fake is so graceful and all, people would be more likely to think that they’re the real one.

though because i’m a sucker for drama, i think there’d be factions throughout teyvat, rallying behind you or the fake. some believe that the fake is real simply because they’re more elegant and ‘god-like’ in appearance, so to speak, all intimidating presence and authoritative voice. others believe you’re the real one because only the true god would be so in tune with nature and compassionate with all living beings, benevolent and empathetic and all the good parts that make you human. tho the humanity you have also serves as a double edged sword because it places you down the pedestal of what they think a god should be.

among the archons, the ones i see rallying behind you are venti and nahida. as for the imposter, it’d be zhongli and ei. (though i imagine zhongli would soon see through the fake simply because of how old and knowledgable he is.)

also, you’re a better person than me anon bc i don’t discriminate between sleeping and awake hilichurls. if i see one, i’m immediately throwing hands.

#i like the concept of sagau but sometimes it gets a bit much #also i wish the fandom chose a different name for this trope because self-aware genshin au (sagau) doesn’t fit in this genre anymore #i mean sure it’s what initially kickstarted the whole creator thing but yknow the actual self-aware genshin aus became few and far between- #because of it #that’s really the only gripe about this trope #scratch that there’s one other thing #it’s the over dramatic villainy of the characters when it comes to imposter aus #i mean sure they’d be devoted to the imposter but i don’t think they’d be so needlessly cruel #it just takes away from their character #but it’s all well and good because we’re all allowed to write what we want #this is just an opinion of mine #if anyone reads this mwah send me more asks about my thoughts on sagau bc i love talking about my opinions #genshin sagau #genshin x reader #asks

im a little sick rn so im sorry if this doesnt make sense or sounds like the ramblings of a crazy person. but every once in a while i see people say that teen titans 2003 completely butchered rose's character and while i think thats true i feel like its also important to mention that. tt03 completely defined rose's character. dgmw she had plenty of good appearances beforehand (titans 99 rose my forever beloved) but teen titans IS her character

like she had showed up in deathstroke comics and mostly either didnt have much of a personality or was experiencing a lot of emotions given that she was having the worst week of her life so its hard to pinpoint an actual personality from that, then in titans she was a fun character but was entirely a side character that didnt have a lot to do. she was on two titans teams before tt03 but never went on a mission (unless u count that one ww issue she was in). not to mention her entire relationship with slade was "hes just kinda the guy that impregnated my mom then indirectly got her killed" so she didnt like him but she also didnt care all that much

but tt03. usually when geoff johns butchers a character he doesnt really give a reason for why their personality is different, but with rose there is a very clear explanation. in #0.5 despite its problems (mischaracterizing lili in the one (1) panel she appeared in and giving rose the. sigh. foster parents.) she was pretty much the same she had been in deathstroke comics, where she was a mostly average person with mild violent tendencies. then wade (same guy that killed her mom) came and murdered her foster parents in front of her, she was very obviously angry and was having a VERY emotionally charged moment. she was angry at the titans because they were the closest people nearby in that moment, then she wasnt angry at slade because he was the one handing her a gun to let her take her revenge. so we very clearly see what made her feel like slade was her only resort, then in issue #12 they say that slade is using the super soldier serum on her to keep her there. so everything is laid out pretty clearly. then ofc when she joins the team in #34 its pretty obvious that her personality is gonna be different bc shes just gotten out of being forced to work with slade against her will, then put on the teen titans where she feels like no one but eddie actually wants her there, but she cant leave because she thinks slade will find her again. shes angry and hurting and her life has been fundamentally changed

basically idk. tt03 shaped most of her personality, her relationship with slade, and her general outlook on life and actually gave a reason for why so much was changed. and before that she had been a pretty minor character, so teen titans gave her a chance to actually. be a character with motives. so while she is a different character in tt03 (though i'd also argue that she has a fairly similar personality in the deathstroke comics she'd been in) i dont think its entirely true to say that it was BAD for her character

#given that shes one of deathstrokes kids i dont think she would've faded into obscurity without tt03 or anything #but she definitely would be a completely different character #i hate to give geoff credit but. the foundations of her character to this day are nearly entirely his doing #along with a bit of sean mckeever given that he was the one to really define her stance on killing #but i have VERY complicated feelings on what he did with that #given that i like her having grey morals and doing a bit of killing #but it also bothers me that she had a really good moment where she chose not to kill someone #and she never killed anyone after she got off the serum until mckeever came #then he had her like. suddenly being more murderous #so he backtracked on her morals AND she was starting to get along with the team and he backtracked on that too #but again. so much of that defined a big part of her character so i cant be too mad ig #rose wilson #dc

maybe, when luz and hunter had their truce to save the palisman from kikimora and he excitedly started talking about wild magic before he cuts himself off, the titan was watching him too. i mean why wouldnt he? he knew belos killed his brother in cold blood and made grimwalkers with his corpse, so maybe he knew that all the grimwalkers would eventually 'turn' on belos and did try to show them his glyphs after they left/fled/ tried to fight, but bc belos always got to them quickly the titan never had a chance to truly get them to realize the magic is right in front of them. maybe he also likes that luz not only taught the first real victim of Phillip how to use glyphs, but retaught the whole isles how to use glyphs (and then some! since all humans can use glyphs as long as theres a big enough titan around)

#toh #ti talks #the titan #the boiling isles #i think he knew as a grimwalker they could only use glyph and palisman magic but hid it from them until they saw belos- #-for who he really was and either ran or tried to stop him #i mean he managed to kill allthe grimwalkers according to the graveyard his lab made #idk i think the titan just wanted SOMEONE to take him down and he seen this little brown head pop out in different times #and when she actually arrives she sees her immediately fall in love with his son and protect and believe him and knew this was the one #and no he didnt choose her #but shes the one who listened and shes the one who studied and cared for the witches AND demons of the isles #and shes the one who chose to fight for the true titan and he gave her what powers he had left #but i think he also watched caleb and watched as the grimwalkers got slowly more concerned and harder to corrupt #and that belos was forced to make them younger and younger to make them more impressionable and hunter truly was the youngest grimwalker #and the titan was excited when hunter gave back the palisman and let the ee's go and actually cared for flapjack

[imminent-danger-came]

Sorry if you‘ve been asked this before, but since we know you‘re fav lmk characters, I was wondering what you‘re favorite duos and trios were?

And/or however many characters you wanna group together. Just in general, the character dynamics you find neat!

(My guess is that MK and Mei are somewhere on the top of the list- if not THE top)

One of my favorite things about lmk (of which there are many lol), is that you could throw two darts, and whatever two characters the darts land on are bound to have an interesting dynamic.

One of my favorite episodes is the Sandy and Huntsman episode (2x08), Tang and Macaque also have an intriguing conflict in 3x08, and Pigsy and Chang'e (3x07) have such a heartfelt shared passion that you can't help but enjoy their on screen time together.

I'm someone who wants a sort of Ne Zha and Yellowtusk "we reluctantly work together" arc, where even though Yellowtusk may have helped nearly bring the world to it's destruction, he ultimately helped save it, and he also happens to know a thing or too about keeping the Jade Emperor's power contained. I think it'd really fit in with lmk's "past mistakes vs making the right choices now" theme—in all honesty Yellowtusk has already paid his time with an eternity spent in the scroll—and now he can truly help make a better world. I think it'd be a neat way to keep him involved in the story, give Ne Zha someone to bounce off of (they both view power as sacred and a huge responsibility, unlike Wukong for example who is much more flippant with power), and would give some juicy drama ("You would betray your brothers?") between Peng and Yellowtusk later down the line.

Though anon you're 100% right, MK and Mei are at the top of my favorite dynamic list lol (They're whole motivation is to protect each other out of 100% platonic love. Obsessed with them). I'm also really partial for the MK, Mei, and Sandy trio that pops up here and there (1x03, 1x04, 3x04, 3x06). Traffic light trio is a treat, and the sunburst duo has my heart forever and always (I love seeing the way MK and Wukong's relationship has developed over the course of the show, both for the better and worse). Pigsy and Tang are always a delight (thank you 1x04, 2x03, 2x04, 3x05, 4x04, and specifically the line "Sometimes it's that little bit of char that makes for a more flavorful meat! Even if it is a bit tangy."), they're definitely at the top of my list. Obviously I like shadowpeach, and shadowpeach + MK (ooooo the monkeys are such delicious/tragic foils oooo), and I think Mei and Wukong have a really interesting dynamic (Wukong seeing Ao Lie in Mei, Mei viewing Wukong as someone who has hurt MK). Wukong and Azure's dynamic is also super interesting (Azure with his unrequited crush and heartbreak), so is LBD and MK's (could talk forever about these two), however I'll cut this off here since I could probably go on for a long while about this specific topic.

#no one's asked me this before and it wouldn't be a bother if they had! #Sorry I kind of went on a tangent about different dynamics in the show and my Yellowtusk and Ne Zha agenda adsfafs #Come on Mr. "Wukong is not the loner he pretends to be'' see the good in Yellowtusk. Let him help keep the world from breaking. #Do it for me #Am I perhaps a bit too invested in a character that's honestly not had that much screen time? Perhaps #But what we are given is *muah* I love Yellowtusk #''This is not the change we dreamnt of'' lowkey the moral backbone of the brotherhood. #His little ''Azure...no!'' in the s4 special gets me too #He's just like Mei and MK fr fr #Yes. Maybe I DO like characters that would chose the person they care about over the world. What of it? #lmk writers are fucking masters at giving the most characterization with the least amount of screen time #And I'd say they mainly do that through parallels/foils/themes but I'm no expert #You can just usually put together a lot of who a character is and their arc based off how they interact with what's been established #I have a long rant about Pigsy's arc rattling around in my brain that I want to write out at some point #I will say this though: Pigsy being a man of tradition/family (2x04 - 3x07) and then giving him qualms with his family in s4 is. *muah* #Like. The thing that get's him to soften up about Zhu Bajie is learning he worked hard to become someone better #Like DO NOT TOUCH ME. I LOVE THAT PIG MAN GOD #I'm a pigsy stan blog now #Actually I love every single character I'll be real this is just who I am #I just also happen to love MK Mei LBD and Azure a little more than the rest afdasdf #asks #lmk #lego monkie kid #monkie kid #lmk speculation

Petition to have Karl dye his hair again, any color will do. Preferably lavender.

My reasoning? Observe how good he looks with dyed hair

I rest my case

In my head the physical ages of the nations are just realistic potential numbers they’ve chosen for themselves (for convenience, e.g. they need to put a birth year on a document). England actually looks 19ish and is stretching the limit of what people will believe, because in his mind, age = seniority and importance, etc. He’d love to say he’s 30 or 35, but he doesn’t want to push it too far lest he be ridiculed for the attempt.

#i’m used to people coming for me over headcanons so if you feel differently from this #then please just write your own headcanon instead of telling me an idea that i’m admitting is in my head and not in canon #is wrong #aph england #hetalia #i also have headcanons on how some of the other nations chose their ages #germany is so serious about it and he will literally study his teeth and skin etc with a magnifying glass #and compare them to info about ageing in medical and forensic textbooks #one day in like 1000 years america might look 42 and he’d still be saying he was 19 because he has peter pan syndrome #canada is scared to look stupid for choosing the right number so every few decades he’s practically doing surveys #tryna figure out what age people think he looks #he needs the reassurance #i can’t even remember if china has a canon physical age but this is a headcanon anyway so #in my head he’s similar to england in that he wants to look older #but he’s not shy to raise eyebrows and have people doubt him #so he looks early 20s but will boldly claim he’s 47 #france takes it the least seriously of anyone (he looks a handsome mid to late 30s) #which has england seething with jealousy btw #he arbitrarily changes his age on a whim #right now he’s 26 because he decided he misses his youth #but a few decades ago he was 40 because why not #but he would never claim to be a day younger than whatever england is currently claiming because he knows how much it gets to him

open letters to various customers i've had

to all the visibly trans/gnc customers/anyone going for the "most fuckable person in the grocery store" look: hiiiiiiiii i love you i love you i love you i love you, yall make my job worth doing and my life worth living thank you for existing

to every customer i went to high school with: don't fucking look at me (unless youre gay now)

to the customers who put literally everything in produce bags: stop fucking doing that shit. youre just making my life harder. those granola bars are individually wrapped in plastic and in a fully sealed cardboard box. why do you do this to me.

to the guy who came in today asking where the "cooking water" was: wtf dude

love, me, a cashier at a grocery store in my hometown

#i literally cant stop thinking about cooking water guy #wait also @ cooking water guy: PLEASE understand that that is a phrase that NO ONE uses #like i am not the weird one here for not understanding what you meant by that. nor was my coworker. or my boss. #please use a different phase when looking for plain bottled water. also you do know that you can just use water from your sink right? #i have more types of customer that i get mad about but i dont feel like listing a bunch of different people just to be like ''hey. stop.'' #i chose the produce bag people specifically bc its not a thing ive heard anyone else talk about and its just a baffling behavior to me #a lot of other stuff just boils down to ''please be nice to me'' #and to be fair! most customers i have are actually pretty nice! #but the ones that arent REALLY suck #retail problems #retail life #life of bea #cashier confessional
