[foursaints]

on that note. enough marauders band aus where they’re polished modern-day celebs… did the unabashed sluttiness of Warped Tour 2009 mean nothing to you?? i want to see the girls in sweaty hoodies playing for dirty venues of insane teens with sharpie lyrics on their vans. wolfstar gets caught making out backstage in a grainy flip phone pic and within 6 hours myspace is in SHAMBLES doing forensics trying to figure out if it’s really them. the black brothers represent the two sides of emo fashion (disgusting black zip-up) vs (RAWR. PIERCINGS. ARMSOCKS) but in the opposite direction of what you’d expect. early 5sos-style james potter? that slut? with his wattpad love interest swag? TELL ME HE WOULDN’T EAT

#barty wearing hot topic… i think i huave covid #i just believe in my heart that wolfstar would incite a level of mass hysteria only comparable to the early days of frerard #they have their own version of the petekey masterdoc

David Gaider on Twitter (tweets composed into text post for convenience):

"Writing is one of those disciplines which is constantly undervalued. It's something that everyone thinks they can do ("I can write a sentence! I know what story is!"), and frankly the difference between good and bad writing is lost on many, anyhow. So why pay much for it, right? In games, you even see this attitude among those who want to get into the field. "I don't have any REAL skills... I can't art, I can't program, so I guess I'll become a writer? It's better than QA!" As if game writing didn't require any actual skill which requires development. Even BioWare, which built its success on a reputation for good stories and characters, slowly turned from a company that vocally valued its writers to one where we were... quietly resented, with a reliance on expensive narrative seen as the "albatross" holding the company back. Maybe that sounds like a heavy charge, but it's what I distinctly felt up until I left in 2016. Suddenly all anyone in charge was asking was "how do we have LESS writing?" A good story would simply happen, via magic wand, rather than be something that needed support and priority. At the end of the day, you can say you like good writing - whether it's in a game, a movie, an online article, or whatever - but if you don't value it enough to prioritize it and support it... and, yes, pay writers what they're due... that's not what everyone else is hearing."

2003 Donatello meeting the other various TMNT iterations and they all think he's just a level-headed Smart Guy with a quiet disposition and a tendency to snark from the sidelines, but then he pulls off some Fuckshit at random and scares the bejeezus out of everyone else and they're like "ah yes, that's the true Donatello Spirit, sorry for assuming otherwise"

He also tells his Raph to shut the hell up for some reason or other and gets absolutely 0 reaction, which also gets the other turtles like ???

#TMNT #TMNT 2003 #TMNT Donatello #20s musings #listen if he had access to high grade titanium like rise donnie does then u think he wont immediately build a weapon of mass destruction #the man is limited only by the fact that he lives in the fucking sewers and its the early 2000s #he builds all of his stuff out of garbage bc its all he has!! #and... he does also steal several helicopters and other vehicles. this rectangle ass mutherfucker is a menace to society #Also u can pry 03 twins raph and don from my dead hands. don gets away with everything bc hes raphs number 1 soft spot (aside from mikey) #raph loves when don swears at him also i think. he thinks its funny when don actually gets mad at him

[swaps55]

Did BioWare really put out a trailer for a game that has been in the works for 8+ years that has even less substance than the N7 day teaser for a game that just started development?

#Adventures with swaps #Don't get me wrong I'm ignoring the N7 day trailer too #Whatever they say about the next mass effect #If it ever happens #Means jack shit this early #But jfc the game has been baking for almost a decade and they still have nothing to say about it

My favorite part about this is that it isn't true. That's not why girls were looking at Mob. Teru is just gay, and thinks everyone finds Mob as cool and handsome as he does

#teru: its because you're so cool and handsome‚ of course the girls can't take their eyes of of you! <3 #said girls: *staring at mob as an early sign of mass brainwashing* #like teru my love that's just you. you are gay. #terumob #mob mp100 #mob psycho 100 #kageyama shigeo #hanazawa teruki #mp100 #teru mp100 #a.txt

guess who started watching Star Trek Deep Space Nine 🤪

#it’s me #I think I used to watch some of it with my grandma when I was growing up #but baby this shit premiered when I was one year old #so I have almost no recollection of any of the stories or characters fr #but I wanna give it a try #tbh there’s so much Star Trek that I’m a little intimidated to start #figure DS9 is early enough to be a good start #if I fuck w it well enough I’ll go back and watch some of the older ones and work my way into the newer series too #tbh I’ve been on my jeffrey combs bullshit #and the weyoun fics have made me curious #I like mass effect and doctor who so surely I’ll like this #I’m on season one episode 2 rn #and I fuck with it already #vi speaks #Star Trek #st ds9 #star trek ds9

Gym rat Star doodle. Fun fact the scars on their wrists are from surgery after fracturing both wrists punching through an Atlas cockpit. Just 6’3” Vanguard vibes.

Trying to get better at darker skin and masc (ish) bodies. GNC blorbos have been therapeutic for me.

#mass effect #Mass effect art #Commander Shepard #Star Shepard #Starling Shepard #Themshep #GNC blorbos have been therapeutic for me as a person who receives high doses of serotonin when usin they/them for myself #finch doodles #Mass effect doodles #I need to figure out their tattoos cause they're with Jack who starts using them as a canvas as early as game 2

oh nooooo not me forgetting to not go on zelda youtube and being forced to reckon with the sheer magnitude of its fanbase's unchecked racism

#thoughts #zelda fandom critical #gerudos #the wildest thing is #I don't think they realize????? #I don't even think they realize #but WOW does this fandom have a fucking Problem with the gerudos #sometimes I go like #"mmm maybe I'm extrapolating a little surely it's not actually that ba-- #*gets hit in the face by a dozen lazer beams* #pain is the best teacher #or something #(reminds me of the discourse surrounding batarians in mass effect) #(but even worse here because I Understand why people might not see what batarians are based on/so hateable I sort of get it) #(but like!! gerudos are meant to be partially sympathetic at least!!! and people are just Saying Shit on both ends of the spectrum) #(aka: uwu babies in need to be subbued for their own good AND they are barbarians that assault hylian men for fun) #(and it's like??? do you guys not hear your dumb selves oh my god) #(anywayyyy it's too early for this)

[unohanadaydreams]

I will say that this filler has some really fantastic background shots. These are definitely not all from the same episode, also.

#saving the seireitei shots for Kenpachi's fight because it fits better there #can you imagine trying to traverse that fucking library #insane #also it really feels like Seireitei is constantly downplaying how much tech they actually have #because it's truly everywhere #but they go to the human world and are like 'oh my god mass production? mass media?' #its like they only use it for boring shit #Unohana is on the computer looking for information she's like searching early digitized library records it must be so painful

TSATS really does honestly feel like someone took all the solangelo/Will Solace from early post-HoO in the fandom, shoved it in a blender, cranked that shit on high, and then dumped it into a book without any care for consistency or anything. The book keeps stumbling into reading like somebody who just found out what being gay was, or exactly like a 2014/2015 pjo fanfic or forum rp with Ye Olde Fanon Will back when nobody knew what to do with him and half the fandom decided his major character trait was “Asshole.” Like, back then photokinesis!Will was at its peak. Saberghatz’s Solangelo quest AU, before the plot of was TOA announced, was absolutely booming (and between Saber’s au and Cherryandsisters’ Will askblog, they were probably the leading sources for Will fanon at the time). Nico was being UwU’d to hell and back. The fanon, being fanon, never was actually required to comply with canon, so headcanons about Will having known Nico since TTC were plentiful because nobody cared - it was headcanons - and nobody could remember anything about Will Solace anyways.

But TSATS seems to be taking all of that and going “No, it’s canon now.” Which doesn’t work. Fanon can exist as fanon because it’s all headcanons, and it’s just making stuff up in a little playground of picking and choosing what canon to stay and go. If you’re actually writing canon, then you’ve already decided what canon stays and goes because you put it in the book, and now that’s what’s established and you need to follow it. Or else you’re making a retcon or a continuity error. Fanon can have Will impossibly exist in The Titan’s Curse, but canon absolutely can’t (and it definitely can’t say Nico somehow spent more than one week at CHB when the entirety of TTC is contained within one week). And it feels incredibly bizarre to see all this in a canon book anyways, because again - basically all of it feels ripped from fanon with zero consideration whatsoever.

#pjo #riordanverse #solangelo #will solace #nico di angelo #tsats #the sun and the star #the sun and the star spoilers #tsats spoilers #AALV TSATS liveblogging #having been there for early solangelo makes reading this book feel SO weird #because its just. its all of it. its just all of old fanon in a big ol' messy bundle #but also like. there's a reason that fanon fell out of favor once people got a better grasp on their ideas of Will as a character #and people have always been agonizing over fanon uwuifying Nico #so much of that fanon got left behind because so much of it was sloppy and feeling stuff out and people decided they didnt like it anymore #so they took the stuff they did like - mostly Will's photokinesis - and moved on #but now we're rolling back around to it and staring it in the face feels like im witnessing some horrible creature in a scifi movie #like a terrifying blobby mass of fanon wiggling and lurching having been brought to life by a mad scientist #an entity that should never exist in that form #and theyre presenting it like a cat or dog presents a dead bird
