ik a bunch of ppl right now are complaining about how unfair it is that they wouldn’t let kishimoto draw narturo and sasuke holding hands during that scene but i’m not gonna lie i 100% believe that having their arms torn off and laying there together as their blood forms a heart and the bleed out right next to one another is infinitely more gay and satisfying.

Rewatching s1e1 Emma (again again) I think we can say for certain that s1e1 Lu Guang is already time traveller!Lu Guang. When Cheng Xiaoshi jokes about hanging himself in the store so no one else will rent it, Lu Guang mutters “idiot” but he seems genuinely upset, and both Cheng Xiaoshi and Qiao Ling are surprised about his reaction. Him being genuinely upset at the image of Cheng Xiaoshi killing himself, when it is clearly only a stupid joke, probably means he’s already the Lu Guang who dealt with Cheng Xiaoshi’s death, and he’s seeing his dead friend in his mind when he reacts in a way that even catches his friends’ attention (but also I think this might be because of a change of timeline. I’ll confirm this theory later, but I believe people many times feel surprised or unsettled when the boys are in control and change something from how it was supposed to be, even when it doesn’t change the final result of the timeline. But more on this later, when I finish the rewatch).
Also, rewatching this chapter, Lu Guang is so much less controlled and much more emotional than we actually are led to believe when we first met him; he’s pushy and rude with Cheng Xiaoshi when it comes to their rules, he screams when he thinks Cheng Xiaoshi is about to change the past, etc. One of the things that lead us to believe he’s such a controlled person is his passiveness when he learns about Emma’s death, but I think his reaction is because 1. This might be something he’s already lived and knew might happen, which brings us to the next important questions - from which point is the timeline we are seeing been “so changed” as Lu Guang thinks when he is stabbed; or 2. He expects it to be a change in timeline that might help him save Cheng Xiaoshi (although why Lu Guang isn’t throwing a coin into the air and just doing random stuff to try to prevent Cheng Xiaoshi’s death is something I still wonder, but if this is the “last” of multiple attempts, I’m guessing maybe he already tried that).

It’s finally time for Magical Girl au yaaay! I’ve wanted to make one since I started watching Sailor Moon (& rewatched Magica Madoka) a couple months ago 🐙
I use the term Magical Girl loosely, but it doesn’t mean everyone has a skirt & highlighter color palette. Really it only means you get a cool outfit transformation & magic for fighting demons.
The breathing styles are like different forms of magical girls. Different divisions that Magical Girls train under I should say. (Aka if canon Slayer corps cared more about having strong highly trained members from the start instead of the final arc). The most popular/prevalent Breathing Styles have their own division (which is why Insect or Love doesn’t have one, since those were created recently and used only by one person)
There’s a bigger emphasis on teamwork (because that’s usually how the protagonists overpowers enemies that would definitely kill them otherwise) so just about every mission no matter your rank is with at least one other Slayer.
I also use “Division Leader” & “Hashira” often but don’t get them mixed up. Out of the Hashira, only about 4-5 have led their own divisions.
All Division Leaders are Hashira, but not all Hashira are Division Leaders if that makes sense.
Division Leader’s Estates are for housing (temporarily) and training of the lower ranks of their breathing style.
The non-Division Leader Hashira don’t have personal Estates. But because teamwork & friendship is important, they all share one Estate. Its the size of an average personal Estate, just split between the rest of the Hashira. It’s big enough for them to live comfortably without overcrowding each other
Out of the non-division leaders, Mitsuri, Uzui, Muichiro and Obanai share that estate. Shinobu stays with Kanae in the Butterfly Estate.
(The Kakushi are same as in canon)
Main divisions:
Magical Water Division, led by Giyuu & Sabito
Magical Wind Division, led by Sanemi
Magical Stone Division, led by Gyomei
Magical Flame Division, led by Kyojuro
Magical Flower Division, led by Kanae (yes she’s alive)
I know that Thunder Breathing was one of the original five, but I can’t find a suitable Leader or purpose for their Division. Zenitsu isn’t near powerful enough, Jigoro retired before the era of our current hashira. So I replaced their division slot with Flower because Kanae <3
As far as weapons go;
Every magical slayer has a sword and learns their respective breathing style, and each one of them has a specific ability/magic set.
I’m Introducing magic as a stand-in for the Pretty Guardians’ specialized attacks. (Like how Sailor Moon has ‘Moon Spiral Heart Attack’ that’s specialized to her usage only.)
In the au, Everyone has a Sword and their Breathing Style, but everyone’s magic abilities are different.
Sometimes you just need that extra slap to take out demons. This would definitely help when swords break mid fight. While magic alone isn’t enough to take out a demon, it can weaken them which could give slayers time to call for backup or retreat.
Also you pretty much sell your soul to become a Slayer

that line from episode 2 is still haunting me. Joel’s “You need to stop talking about this kid like she’s got some kind of life in front of her!”
We know of Joel’s reluctance and annoyance regarding the smuggling of Ellie outside the QZ and to the fireflies, but this is something we never get in the game. This very strong pessimism. He’s become so detached. He doesn’t believe she’s worth anything. He’s dehumanized her and stripped her raw of any worth or meaning in his mind. She equates to nothing. She has nothing to offer the world, not even her immunity to the fungus. She has nothing to offer either of them or anyone else. She’s worthless to him, in nearly every way possible.
And not only is this a mix of his pessimism that has been a part of him for who knows how long at this point, it’s also his vehement defiance of getting attached to her. This little girl is handed to him on a silver platter. A little girl that reminds him so much of Sarah. She’s cute, snarky, inquisitive, and a smart ass. What’s not to love? But he’s fighting himself the whole time because of this. She’ll get to him, he knows she will, so he has to do everything in his power to keep that from happening. Be rude, ignore her, blame her, point a gun and threaten to shoot her every time she breathes, downright shit on her whole existence to Tess while she can hear the conversation, whatever it may be. He has to mean nothing to her. Because he’s responsible for her. Because he has to protect her and get her to safety. And what happened the last time he had that same responsibility? And if that same fate happens to her, at least he’s not attached this time. He can throw her in a fire and move on. But if their journey goes too far, that bonding is inevitable. It will happen. And he just can’t let it. He has to get rid of her as soon as he can. Because those limits of not caring will only get him so far.
But, in part, it also makes me smile knowing how they end up. Knowing how much she ends up meaning to him that he massacres a whole hospital to save her. How much he ends up loving her, and her him. That she does have a life in front of her, and it’s because of him. They get to settle down together. Ellie living in a normal community for the first time in her life, not a military school. Making friends and finding love. Learning how to swim, visiting a space museum and getting to touch the stars, and learning how to play guitar; everything that he gives her. The man that convinced himself that she was nothing and without a purpose becomes more than everything to him. and I can’t wait to see it all unravel in live action.

tonight i talk to my parents on a video call for the first time in almost a year. the last time we spoke, they were trying to convince me to go back into the closet and masquerade as a straight woman so my ex would take me back. i’ve spent a year growing teeth and rage and i just found out last night they have been reading abigail shrier’s book irreversible damage: the transgender craze seducing our daughters (iykyk).
i don’t intend for there to be survivors.
(what else are the teeth even good for?)
