#canon ending? I dont know her

[bonefall]

Tbh I never read that far in DOTC but I heard so much about star flower from fandom that now hearing about it directly from you I feel so cheated. I was promised a femme fatale.. tho in hindsight considering how much these writers hate women I probably shouldn't have gotten my hopes up

I WISH we got a femme fatale. It would have been incredibly cathartic for her to make herself alluring to Clear Sky, turning his worst traits against him and getting both power and revenge. For Thunder to bond to her over it, reaching the conclusion in the end that they both had terrible parents that they need to reject.

but, knowing the Erins, they would have just had Clear Sky kill her violently and gratuitously for ever tricking him. Like how he gouged Willow Tail's eyes out. So... I guess we were doomed either way.

Anyway im cooking

#Bone babble #Anyway yeah. I dont recommend reading further it's bad. #It's bad enough in books 1 - 3 knowing where it's all going and that every woman is going to die violently for male arcs #But 4 - 6 are just infuriating #Read Book 4 for One Eye and change the ending to snake killing clear sky and that's the ideal experience #''Im so glad that this is all over and ive learned nothing.'' #And then Snake's paw makes contact with Clear Sky's face and the ending music cuts in #Lmaooooo Jojo's Roundabout cuts in #I want to thread a needle on Starf being a victim like in canon BUT ALSO allowing her to be the badass I think she should have been #Because like. I love her and feel for her as is in-canon #But my strong opinion is that she SHOULD have gotten violent moments and done REAL messy things #Unlike canon which equates her doing literally NOTHING wrong with Clear murdering 3 women and shoving his kid's face in a wound

This is just for a very specific HC im having but regardless.

#my art #fate grand order #jeanne d'arc #ruler #i just think she should have issues about not having her short dark hair #i KNOW fate makes it canon that during life she had long blonde hair #consider this tho: i Dont care #i will make her wish she had her short dark hair and thats the end of story #she will be My scrungly butch lesbian #fate apocrypha

the psychological horror created by Hasbro’s desire to sell more toys rather than honour the desires of the original creator resulting in an immortal alicorn princess of friendship doomed to watch her friends grow old and die without her is so interesting to me. by trying to cater to children more you have accidentally created a reality in which death of the main characters friends as she lives on for centuries is not just implied but confirmed. idk it’s fascinating to think about

#EVEN MORESO BY G5 #with discord in the comics clearly descended into misery without fluttershy #their absence speaks volumes #and I know kids are able to handle mature topics like death earlier than we often assume #but still it’s so strange to think about death of the main characters being canon and confirmed in the colourful pony cartoon #wild #mlp #major character death #character death #DONT GET ME WRONG I LOVED THE LAST EPISODE SO MUCH #it’s just !!!!! I wish twilight was growing old alongside them #I don’t like how much she looks like celestia too #she’s grown so apart from her roots it feels like it undoes much of her growth #at the same time it’s the best ending we could’ve hoped for all things considered #I JUST MISS HER ICONIC FRINGE

ty to @swimmingferret‘s fic Iron and Ice for showing me the absolute potential that is douma being a single father of two

#kny #kimetsu no yaiba #douma #tsuyuri kanao #hashibara inosuke #fanart for fanfic #didnt know how much i loved the trope of a psycho being the caretaker of deeply unwell children #im actually SHOCKED canon material didnt pull a stunt where the demon decides to adopt...like wouldnt that be a fun moral crisis #main cast: are you all willing to kill other humans to get to the demons they are protecting - who they consider FAMILY #anyways im soft for this fic TTwTT first time drawing kny fanart geez ofc it was family of choice ofc i would draw for that first #hamster product #Also i LOVE the fact that the main character is kanao...we see so little of her. she deserves the spotlight #i drew this so fast today bc im riding the high of catching up to all the chaps. honestly dont know how it will end but im here for the ride

Can we talk abt the whole Poseidon saved Percy from death after Athena let monsters into her temple in a hissy fit and blames her daughter for the actions of another? Now the whole mirroring of both gods actions and their children's reverence/lack of reverence and the way it didn't affect them saving their children or not saving in Athena's case, has been talked abt so let's talk abt Poseidon here.

If we include the actual Greek myths here, Athena and Poseidon's beef isn't just abt the whole Athens patron contest. In the myths Triton, Poseidon's heir whom we meet in the fifth book, had a daughter named Pallas. Pallas was friends with a daughter of Zeus, Athena. During a spar, fight, or contest (this part varies depending on the telling if the myth) Athena kills Pallas by stabbing her with her spear on accident (although I do believe there are some versions where she did it on purpose as she was blinded by jealousy that Pallas could best her in a fight).

Now, let's go back to PJO. We know after watching the last two episodes that Poseidon does care for Percy beyond what he can do for him, so imagine the anger and panic that Poseidon must have felt after watching his son nearly die all because of Athena's "wounded" pride; it would have been another child of his blood, this time his son instead of his granddaughter, who would loose their life at the hands of Athena.

#pjo #poseidon #pallas #percy jackson #athena #i dont know if pallas story is actually canon in the pjo world but i think its an interesting parallel of how poseidon nearly lost another #family member at athena's hand #and nearly five years later he also nearly lost his son at athena's hand(if indirectly this time) again #poseidon probably hates her by the end of hoo

been busy so I haven't been drawing much :"3 arin. as usual. sawry.

I get so shy about writing oc lore here idk why. but I'll try. okey so I think arin and shin's relationship is kinda rocky beyond surface-level bestieness bc of their history together specifically the fact that she doesn't remember any of it (she's an amnesiac) and also because she's a totally different person now. like if u can believe it she was a lot more calm and level-headed and definitely not as sillay prior to the erasure of the other universes. sometimes when they do things together both of them get in their feelings because one of them is like dang she used to be so different and the other is like dang you remind me of someone else (blue guy but she doesn't know that)

#wish i could write more in depth abt how they know eaxh other but the fact that shinjins don't have a lot of lore kind of irks me #i dont want to guess and then be wrong later if daima or the manga ends up retconning sometjing 😭😭 #maybe i should have wrote her more seperately out of the dbz canon. but then again. im lazy #dragon ball #dbz #dragon ball oc #dbz oc #shinjin #shinjin oc #supreme kai #supreme kai oc #shin #arin #oc #original character #doodle

[nerosdayinanime]

wait. random idea. Pathetic(blame candy) muzan & kokushibo are exes from Centuries ago and he has Complaints hed like to talk about w him but all hes getting to now is Nakime. hes so sick of his bullshit and just enduring it and goes to kagaya like 'i have to kill kibutsuji. ill help you kill him & the other upper moons just PLEASE im so sick of this shit. i need to kill him' 'well you arent killing me so ill give you the benefit of doubt-'

since they broke up he's hacked at the curse to the point he can snap it Whenever without muzan noticing, he finally did so & went to kagaya bc he can Feel shit's gonna pick up soon. he has his memories but he Ignores Them bc hes ashamed and kinda projecting it onto muzan. he has to kill muzan to kill his shame kinda fucked up coping mechanism yk?

the hashira try to kill him On Sight together but he calmly deflects everything while explaining hes working with them to kill kibutsuji. reluctant acceptance with the note from kagaya giving him a pass. most of them fully believe its a trap tho.

koku seeing tanjiro & his earrings and starting to approach, giyuu already has his blade lodged in his neck as a warning/threat & tanjiro staring at him in shock like 'HUH?? THE MAN FROM MY DREAMS?? HES A DEMON NOW? WAIT WHATS HE DOING HERE-'

#allied kokushibo au #he gets to have a conversation w tanjiro (giyuu watching like a fucking hawk) about his brother & sun breathing and all that- nezuko and her #conquering the sun- koku agreeing that of any demon she deserves to have the sun's blessing. not fuckin *muzan*. he'll want his grubby #little hands on her as soon as he finds out. You. practice sun breathing Right Now you have to be Ready for this. #kokushibo #tsugikuni michikatsu #kny spoilers #<probably need to add that since this is like Entirely surrounding the final few arcs #he talks to tomayo&yushiro and shinobu and gets in on their plans. maybe stop shinobu from her suicide attempt & deals with douma himself #leaves more than just tanjiro and giyuu to fight akaza #i dont remember how kaigaku's goes isnt zenitsu the only one? if so he can keep that thats his atonement whatever for jigoro #nakime however is going to have much more of a Time defending against like 4 hashira at once #yadda yadda less casualties happier ending. koku not knowing what the fuck to do now. stop the need to Eat People to live obviously but what #the fuck. he still hates himself. all the tereible shit hes done and for What. does he kill himself? walking into the sun seems like a good #way to go. fitting yk? but if he becomes fully human like nezuko did what the fuck does he Do. just. Live? after all the shit he did? no.. #cool at the beginning but the ending has many questions #i do think he'd want to kill himself but i also think he'd be scared to see his brother in the afterlife. in canon it feels like a spur of #the moment Explode Yourself bc the emotions were overwhelming in the moment #or maybe its been way too long since ive read the manga and this shits ALL out of character #whatever it was funnie at first but then i put too much thought into it #def wanna see somethn with him & tanjiro talking about how theyre connected #kny manga spoilers

[why-is-it-always-autumn]

every time i think i know what worm is about i see a post like "did [character ive never heard of] effectively utilize girl power when she [horrific human rights violation]?" and I have to try to figure out how tf that fits into anything

#from what ive gathered #its about a girl with bug powers who wants to be a superhero but semi-accidentally becomes a supervillain instead #her hometown is full of gangs #i think she ends up taking over and/or destroying most of the gangs? #every so often giant horrific eldritch monstrosities attack and everybody with powers has to team up to fight them #theres at least one shady government(?) organization giving people powers that turn them into monsters #the multiverse is real and they sometimes import media from a universe where superheroes dont exist #theres a group of government sponsored teen heroes just sort of hanging out #theres a gang of serial killers led by the joker if editorial mandates were a canon superpower #theres a family of superheroes but the girl with healing powers has serious issues and i think goes evil? #also all of these people get powers by being traumatized which means theyre all wildly unstable #(this is deliberate) #the main character changes her codename at least once possibly twice im still not sure if the second one is a name or a title #i think a few people change their codenames actually #i still dont know why its called worm #i also dont know whats spoilers and whats just information presented up front when relevant

Have you read one fanfic on AO3 titled Re:Incarnated? One of the most interesting and new aspects of this story for me was Subaru being reborn as a half-elf by Satella. I bet no one has ever thought and acted on that idea before, but there are some questions that bother me, for example, in the canon series there are moments where Subaru relies on Earth's modern technology and knowledge to solve difficult problems, Subaru becomes a half-elf in the world of Rezero and that means that he forgets about his previous life on Earth in Japan, and then when faced with the same dilemma How should Subaru solve it? But I feel these questions should go wait for the original author's update to get answered.

I have to say that fic opened a new door for my inspiration, and I also started to think about creating my own Subaru's elf or half-elf AU, and even imagined a crossover with Lord of the Rings (after all, there's a ton of Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter crossover fics on AO3 and fanfiction) Like one day Subaru is for whatever reason transported to Middle-earth by Satella accidentally and experienced something there, and then how he was found and adopted by the elves of Middle-earth, I think it would be very interesting how the elves of Middle-earth were surprised to find out that elves existed in the Otherworld, Subaru looks similar to them but differs in a few places,and then how Subaru got along with the elves of Middle-earth, and how he explored his own existence and self-worth,how would it be different than the canon series (My half-elf Subaru's character isn't too far off from the canon) Sorry I'm getting a bit carried away, I'm an incorrigible and extreme fan of crossover tropes, I hope you don't mind too much!

yoo sorry i took so long to reply to this ask but please know im delighted to see any asks in my inbox and pfft its interesting hearing about what people are thinking + what they find interesting themselves!!!

as for re:incarnated - i read a chapter or two AGES ago, so i really dont remember much of the fic sadly T^T but ill consider possibly going back to it and reading through it!!! i have a very long to read list though so ill see pfft. and yeah i think that fic was def like. one of if not the first fic to have like half elf subaru as an idea be explored and it also shows a Different method of the isekai trope (being reincarnated!!!) which is fun i think!! plus like. putting "re:" in fic titles is EXTREMELY extremely common in this fandom which i suppose makes sense given. the source material is called rezero. granted most of the time (this is just my opinion btw and i mean no harm by it HAH), to me a lot of fics with "re:" in the title dont justify why the "re:" is actually there. "Re:Incarnated" though is an EXTREMELY good use of the "re" imo. i love the pun <3

yeah as for the fic material itself - i do think its interesting to like change small bits of characters. not in the sense that youre changing like the Core of who they are but i Like seeing experimentations with characters to see like small differences. which is why i love aus (such as the literal canon aus we get in the form of the What Ifs and such!!). if that makes sense. that probably makes more sense in my head HAH anyway!! i always feel like changing a characters backstory is SO HARD to pull off without completely changing a character bc it shapes them a lot. but half elf subaru is definitely an idea that can be done in an interesting way imo and im curious to see how re:incarnated handled that. i know ive considered like emisuba roleswaps myself where emilia was isekaied from earth and subarus a half elf which was kind of like re:incarnated but also not like re:incarnated bc subaru had a similar backstory still but now with a fantasy world background (and vice versa for emilia) aljdfdlsjf. but yeah like i like seeing people experiment with these characters and make fun aus!!! and for me personally its hard for me to find ones i like in this fandom + this fandom doesnt do all the usual fic-isms (like there is next to zero soulmate aus for example HAH) so. interesting i suppose!!

as for your own half elf subaru au - im delighted that you were inspired by re:incarnated and are having fun with your own au as well!! :D while i basically know next to nothing about lord of the rings, your idea definitely sounds interesting, though i dont usually read crossovers that arent fusion aus - but i REALLY love the idea of like two different elf species from two different worlds going ??? at each other HAH thats fun stuff!! and i definitely like when despite all the AU things going on, characters like subaru arent too far off from canon in all the big important ways (ie his whole personality) bc for me, its like - theres a reason why we love these characters and i love trying to capture the heart of who they are even with au things, you know? :o but hah yeah ive made my own crossovers though in private (not to post, just for fun pfft) and i hope you keep having fun about your own half elf subaru au bc it sounds very neat <3 ty for sharing anon!! :D

#rezero #ask #i am so starved of fics in this fandom and i love seeing people be creative u know?? :O i always delight in seeing more even if i dont have #the time or energy or what have you to read everything pfft #thanks again for the ask anon this was fun!! :o #yeah if anyone else is seeing this of course if re incarnated sounds interesting to u give it a little read and leave a kudos and #maybe a little comment if u enjoy it or something <3 #i remember in my own half elf subaru au emilia was a former ice skater and had this whole horror show of a backstory given her family. like #if u know denji chainsaw man. its like that. iirc. yeah. bc thats how her backstory would be like if you translated it into modern day #and half elf subaru had similar backstory to canon its just fantasy-ified and also subaru is a huge nerd about hoshin and shit #and then emisuba ended up making their own isekai novel. long story.

[quietwingsinthesky]

can we talk about the meep’s pronouns moment in the star beast again? i want to talk about the way it’s set up. in any other show, this would have been a joke. it would have been, “oh, look at this trans person getting so up in arms about the doctor assuming this alien’s pronouns. isn’t that an insane thing to care about?” and then that would be where it ended, the entire point being that asking for pronouns is ridiculous, that a trans person pointing it out is ridiculous, and we should be laughing at Rose for bringing it up.

but. it’s not. Rose says, “You’re assuming he as a pronoun?” in a tone of voice that, to me, at least, reads as someone who has been in this situation many, many times before and been laughed at for caring. who has been the butt of that joke. who starts this dialogue off from a defensive position because every time before she’s ever asked in earnest, she’s been shut down.

and then the Doctor says, “True. Yes. Sorry. Good point. Are you he or she or they?” The Doctor acknowledges Rose’s point, apologizes for glossing over it, and makes an effort to ask. Hell, the moment is even used to set up the Doctor connecting to the Meep more like he will when the Meep mentions having two hearts; they both share “the” as a pronoun as a pronoun.

(and I’m reading through the transcript right now to check, but as far as I can tell, yeah. The Doctor does then use “The Meep” to refer to the Meep for the rest of the episode, not any other pronoun.)

It’s a very brief moment, but it feels intentionally made to invoke those jokes, to take them and say, ‘no, why would this be a joke, we’ll take it seriously.’ Expectations subverted brilliantly. The Doctor says trans rights.

#it’s a good moment! this episode is not perfect by any means. esp the bit at the end where we go from ‘well the doctor is male and female #neither and more.’ to ‘a male-presenting doctor would Not get this :/‘ like. okay. #but i think there’s a genuine effort here that’s lovely and earnest. a fumble or two is acceptable in an attempt to do good you know? #but yeah this moment is a very good short little moment and i love it and i love rose noble #i love how quickly the doctor turns to her and takes her seriously. i love that her question is immediately validated. i love her. #also i dont know when else ill get to talk about this but i love that ‘the’ is canonically one of the doctor’s pronouns. #ive seen some people say ‘well why do they put that line in and people keep calling the doctor ‘he’?’ and i think like. because he uses more #than just the one? i really dont think the doctor would just sit down and shut up if she was really upset about being misgendered. have u #seen her. 90% of her character is talking. he would make it known immediately. #it just seemed clear to me that this was the doctor acknowledging that they use more than the usual set. and that’s why im petition for #xe/xem doctor in the next season- #(or…. or it/its doctor……….. ouguh 🥺) #anyway point is that the doctor has many a pronoun and one of them is just ‘the doctor’. #doctor who #rose noble #fourteenth doctor #the doctor

[jahiera]

at the grove with dark urge emrys and I have GOT to say. sticking to keeping her a paladin (of vengeance here) was such a moment. still getting all the flavor text as a paladin but having none of your memories might feel like a slight incoherence in the narrative to most but the idea of waking up and nothing but blood blood blood. and this deep in your bones knowledge that you swore an oath at some point in your past and you must adhere to it. sexy as fuck.

#durge!emrys is not her canon but it might have to be a little separate AU I hold tenderly to my heart #in her canon I'm giving her a few more levels in cleric than I originally intended too -- probably like three #so I'll give her a few in ... MAYBE warlock? for Durging. #I DONT KNOW what to do there yet I just like the dark mirror of it all. #because it's still very coherent with a lot of her main character ideas #it's like all that deeply repressed hate & rage is inside ripped right to the surface in this & must be worked through more purposefully #the hateful turn of her devotions & her vitriol .... #and of course. her faith. even uglier here. maybe she would like to be daddy's specialest boy but she'll turn away in the end #the pull between the urges and her oath. the ugliness of her spirit. all that is RIGHT here. #and she's even goth. #playing bg3 #oc. emrys #bg3 spoilers

i hope patton is ok forever. she deserves it

#something odd to me i guess is the way people tend to frame patton as some kind of master manipulator #hes really... not. you guys know that right #patton is a side who is trying his best and not doing super awesome at it because c!thomas was instilled with particular beliefs-- #(cough. cough. catholicism) #that ask for total moral/ethical perfection from a human being and total selflessness and dedication to doing what's right #patton is; at least partially; a manifestation of that belief #patton is in his current state very impulsive and when he ISNT impulsive he is incredibly thoughtful but not CALCULATING #patton is the heart. he's the heart #like i dont know how people end up straying so far away from easily laid out canon #canon to the point of it literally being a repetitive motif and way the character is referenced #im losing my mind. sorry #LIKE!!! i dont even think patton is perfect or anywhere near there #part of the REASON i like her so much is that he is FLAWED #to hell and back #but in the end patton sanders isnt a story of someone who's pulling strings to get what he wants #hes a story of just some guy trying his best to do his job and fucking up #because the way he's existed for all of his life is conflicting with what is actually good for thomas #does this make sense. am i going insane

[sleepy-vix]

i think "my day can't get any worse" but then i remember Takaya Kagami totally butchered Shinoa's potential as a character by making her fall in love with Yuichiro for literally no good reason and my day immediately becomes 10x more horrible

#seraph of the end #sote #sleepy vix #i just couldnt continue sote bc of her #its so sad bc i loved her before she randomely fell in love with yuu like tf get out of here cockblocker #btw ive only read like 45% of sote so i dont actually know if yuu and mika become canon or anything but i guess ill just never find out bc #i dropped sote bc of shinoa #sorry not sorry she was annoying #the fact that i love teruko from bsd and they basically have very similar personalities aghh #i cant forgive kagami for ruining her

[gothamcityneedsme]

ok its really funny that the title smt indicates the importance of a female goddess but when it comes to the games outside of 1 and 2 its like. Who.

esp for me personally. i assume in nocturne the goddess is meant to be aradia? If so thats the only one where i care about the goddess. But TDE totally destroys her significance so like. Lol.

In smtiv i just like. Burroughs doesnt add enough and really just complicates and confuses story components so i toss her out when im writing. Which is so funny its like yeah ill just pretend shes siri >> she is a god. She has no presence in smtiva so hilariously smtiva supports tossing her. smtiva doesnt really have a goddess either like. Lmao.

Strange journey has so many women in it idk who the goddess is supposed to be but i dont think anyone actually fulfills that role, redux or originally

smtv has tao but then its like half her content and like all explanations about whats going on with her was left on the cutting room floor so like. Her impact is sort of wrecked.

#Shitpost #tbh. I hate how TDE renders all other endings irrelevant. Like. Utterly #its interesting but its soooo shitty that nocturne has basically an indisputable canon #And its like. Will i ever see the other endings #no. Lol. #vs like strange journey even the og endings are worth seeing because then you understand what Alex seeks to modify #and why the new ending literally exists. It actually builds on it. And theres something awesome there with like #not choosing the new ends despite Alex and being like. Nah i do think the world you see as hell is still the right world to create #and all smtiv endings good and smtiva only has the two main ones (technically has 4 tho) but its so so good #Smtvs endings are interesting but a liiittle less fully formed because the alignment lock is. So late #but still. #anyways. Tldr who tf is this goddess thats having a revelation. i dont even know her.

[aroaceleovaldez]

nico is actually confirmed catholic in ton

“And, through it all, he’d struggled with his upbringing as a conservative Catholic Italian male from the 1930s and finally learned to accept himself as a young gay man.” (chp 10)

I will take your word on this because I do not feel like checking my copy of ToN and also I have no reason to disbelieve you. Also, i'll be completely honest i do my best every day to try to forget literally everything that happened in Tower of Nero because of how awful all of it was.

ironically immediately after I got this ask, I got another anon talking more about how the troglodytes (introduced in ToN) are racist. And I think that's beautiful.

#ask #Anonymous #other anon I will get to you in a bit feel free to poke me if i forget #but know that i saw your ask and seeing it come in IMMEDIATELY after this ask was extremely funny to me #but yeah i'll be real by ToN i just kind of stopped accepting anything it said as canon. like. objectively its canon. but yknow. #and Rick gets so messy and inconsistent with Nico's backstory by HoO. #i dont like that we get exposition about Nico's life from a random third party he's barely interacted with before #especially since it's inconsistent information with what we've been told about Nico leading up to this point #cause we have no reason to believe Maria raised Nico conservatively #in fact we have every reason to believe otherwise because again he's specifically from Venice #and Venice during the war actually had a decent amount of anti-fascist stuff going on #not to mention just what we've seen of Maria she's like. cussing out Zeus basically. as far as we know she will not tolerate injustice #which tracks with her having had TWO kids with the god of the underworld #okay actually i did end up looking this up cause i hadn't remembered Rick ever explicitly using “gay” in the books to describe Nico but yea #anyways. ToN is out the window for me alongside the new book. mostly for the trogs but also things have just stopped making sense
