One of the greatest TV show moments I have ever lived is most definitely the Pearsons house being set on fire while the song “To Build a Home” is playing. I don’t think I’ll ever get over that sequence.

So, I’ve been texting my dad (mostly) spoiler free summaries of The Bad Batch all season, each with a different theme (bad batch episodes as Disney park rides, bad batch episodes so far as out of context Wrecker lines, etc), and the last one was just me trying to make the episodes as mundane as possible. Which basically went like:
1. The Spoils of War: A questionable middle-manager tempts her employees with the sizeable performance bonus.
2. The Ruins of War: Mom horrified to learn that their daughter took him literally while their brother refuses to acknowledge a medical emergency.
3. The Solitary Clone: Depressed man who hates his job and never gets a lunch break is forced to deal with the woman who keeps ignoring all the “under new management” signs.
4. Faster: Gifted pilot reveals that he is no more responsible than either the man child or the literal child he was left to supervise.
5. Entombed: Child convinces her aunt to take her to a high tech corn maze; exhausted dad reluctantly tags along.
6. Tribe: Dad Squad steps in to help with a carpool.
7. The Clone Conspiracy: Career soldiers contemplate retirement.
8. Truth and Consequences: Wanted criminals break in to the world’s most dangerous Blockbuster to find a rare video.
9. The Crossing: Family goes spelunking in Space Moab.
10. Retrieval: Demolitions expert is so hangry he accidentally stumbled into a Dickens novel.
11. Metamorphosis: Four idiots go out of their way to prove that they have never seen a horror movie.
12. The Outpost: New transfer goes birdwatching in the snow.
13. Pabu: Broke ne’erdowells eat sushi.
14. Tipping Point: Responsible big brother teaches little sister how to drive the family car while one brother grabs dinner and the other has a doctor’s appointment.

Asks about my OTPs
Pick your top 10 OTPs without reading the questions, then answer the questions after you've made your list
Elizabeth and Darcy (Pride and Prejudice)
Belle and Beast (Beauty and the Beast 1991)
Anne and Wentworth (Persuasion)
Chuck and Sarah (Chuck)
Killian and Emma (Once Upon a Time)
Peeta and Katniss (The Hunger Games)
Stede and Ed (Our Flag Means Death)
Catherine and Henry (Northanger Abbey)
Snow and David (Once Upon a Time)
Leslie and Ben (Parks and Recreation)
Now here are the questions and answers!
1. Do you remember the episode/scene/chapter that you first started shipping 6? – Probably some time during the second book, when they really become a team protecting and comforting each other.
2. Have you ever read a fanfic about 2? – Haha yes, and written many!
3. Has a picture of 4 ever been your screen saver/profile picture/tumblr screen saver? – Nope!
4. If 7 were to suddenly break up today, what would your reaction be? – They kind of are broken up? It's devastating, but I hope season 2 will fix it!
5. Why is 1 so important? – Because they got me into the entire Jane Austen universe, which is one of my main interests and hobbies now.
6. Is 9 a funny ship or a serious ship? – Mostly serious, but they have their funny moments.
7. Out of all the ships listed, which ship has the most chemistry? – Elizabeth and Darcy or Chuck and Sarah.
8. Out of all your ships listed, which ship has the strongest bond? – Probably Peeta and Katniss since they went through such intense trauma together.
9. How many times have you read/watched the 10’s fandom? – 3 times, and I'll do it again.
10. Which ship has lasted the longest? – I don't know what this means. In their canon? Snow and David have been together for over 40 years by the end of the show, I think. In my heart? I've been into Belle and Beast ever since the movie came out over 31 years ago. In fandom? Elizabeth and Darcy have been going strong for over 200 years!
11. How many times, if ever, has 6 broken up? – I suppose they weren't really a couple during the period where Peeta wanted to murder Katniss lol! Plus they were fake dating and fake engaged for most of their relationship, so it's hard to tell what "broken up" means in this sort of context where they're not truly together to begin with.
12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive, 2 or 8? – 2, because Beast is a literal beast with claws and fangs and crap, and Belle is very smart. 8 are sweet little cuties who would get killed immediately lol!
13. Did 7 ever have to hide their relationship for any reason? – They both were kind of in denial about liking each other romantically, but that's not really the same thing. And they kind of broke up right after officially acknowledging they wanted to be together! I guess Stede was hiding his relationship when he went back to Mary.
14. Is 4 still together? – Kind of. The awful series finale makes their future murky.
15. Is 10 canon? – Yep, all of these ships are. I'm basic haha!
16. If all 10 ships were put into a couple’s Hunger Games, which couple would win? – Well Beast is the most dangerous physically, but he wouldn't want to kill anyone. So I'm going with Chuck and Sarah due to their physical training and Sarah's skill and lack of remorse over killing anyone she needs to.
17. Has anybody ever tried to sabotage 5’s ship? – Mostly Emma herself haha! I guess Neal and David kind of did, but not really actively/aggressively.
18. Which ship would you defend to the death and beyond? –  I strongly believe in all of them, but Belle and Beast are the most in need of defense because some people see them as toxic, so I'm the most prickly about defending their relationship, I guess.
19. Do you spend hours a day going through 3’s tumblr page? – Nope, they're not super popular on Tumblr. I think only 1, 5, and 7 have a strong presence on Tumblr.
20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the ten ships to break up forever or else she’d break them all forever, which ship would you sink? – I guess Catherine and Henry just because they could each easily find someone else to love and be happy with and not be forever devastated by their breakup. They're not, like, soulmates, just two cute young people who happened to get thrown together.
Tagging some people if they want to do this: @loonysama, @thefamilybruno, @annaofthenorthernlights, @bad-at-names-and-faces, @thecassadilla, @keeshya6, @bethanydelleman, @thatscarletflycatcher + anyone else! (No pressure to do this as usual!)

14 Things Said During The 'Vanderpump Rules" Finale That Will Stay With Me For The Rest Of My Days, Including "You're Worth Nothing" Ariana looking Sandoval dead in the eye and whispering, "You're worth nothing. And I want you to feel that, deep in your soul. I want you to hear that. I regret ever loving you."
14 Things Said During The 'Vanderpump Rules" Finale That Will Stay With Me For The Rest Of My Days, Including "You're Worth Nothing"
BuzzFeed Staff
Have any of you recovered yet from the other night's Vanderpump Rules finale???? I woke up yesterday (and maybe today) just wanting to hug Ariana. You too?
Basically, the whole world has been counting down until this week's episode — Season 10, Episode 15, titled "#Scandoval" — to see what exactly happened in the Vanderpump Rules bubble when news broke that Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss were having a seventh-month-long affair.
If you're not up to date on what happened Wednesday night, here's a very helpful — and detailed — recap.
A lot went down, so I decided to do a fun little roundup of quotes from the finale that will live rent-free in my head FOREVER. Here are some of them.
1. In the opening scenes where Ariana was on her couch taking in the Scandoval news, she said to her friend about Tom, "He gives me the ick."
Producers knew what they were doing here because as Ariana said this line, cameras panned to Tom looking at himself in the mirror, truly giving EVERYONE the ick.
2. The now-famous scene where Tom asked Ariana if she wants anything and she casually turns to him and says, "For you to die."
3. During the emotional conversation between Ariana and Tom when she bravely told him off and she said, "'Selfish' is the nicest word you could use" when Tom said his and Raquel's actions were selfish.
4. During this same conversation when Tom said to Ariana, "You put pressure on me to stay in the relationship." I wanted to throw my TV right out the window when I heard this gaslighting.
5. TBH, Ariana was full of great one-liners during this intense conversation with Tom, so another favorite of mine is when she asked him, "Any last words before we never speak again?" MIC DROPPED.
6. Ariana looking Sandoval dead in the eye and whispering, "You're worth nothing. And I want you to feel that, deep in your soul. I want you to hear that. I regret ever loving you." YES, QUEEN. 👑
7. Fast-forward to when Tom Sandoval went over to Tom Schwartz's apartment and the two were digesting the affair. The conversation that took place between these two was on another level. Like, when Sandoval said to Schwartz, "I wanted to tell [Ariana] and every time I wanted to tell her, I got this vibe that she just did not want to fucking know." WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?
8. I can't stop thinking about when Schwartz said to Katie in the midst of a serious convo, "There's man-eating crocodiles in Florida right now." Is he OKAY?!
9. When James was on the phone with Raquel calling her out on her shit, I lost it when he said to her, "All the people you were building friendships with, you literally trashed it for Sandoval's little cocky cock.
10. James continued... "His stinky 40-year-old cock, like seriously Raquel?" JAMES KENNEDY FOR PRESIDENT. 👏
11. Okay, how about that very cringe, awkward scene when Sandoval went over to Raquel's apartment for them to hold each other and cry? 🙄 When talking about his family liking Raquel, he said "they love you" and Raquel responded by saying "I love you too."
12. It really got even worse when Sandoval replied, "I said 'They love you' but I love you too.” I almost FAINTED.
13. When Tom said in his confessional, "When I kissed Raquel, I felt hope." To me, this is a ridiculous cop out and him trying to justify his horrible actions.
14. When former VPR cast member Kristen Doute went over to Ariana's house to counsel her, Ariana was explaining what Tom's camp came out and said to the public. "They said [my and Tom's] relationship was one of companionship and convenience and not love and romance." Talk about a pathetic excuse.
There is a lot to digest here! Tell me all your VPR finale thoughts in the comments below.
Watch the finale episode and more Vanderpump Rules on Peacock!

Hey everyone! ^^
I know I haven’t been as active on this blog as I am in my main account 😅 But I can assure u that that’s gonna change. 😌
Introducing my new blog: Ask Tia Mitchell!

OTH 2X21 REWATCH REVIEW
1. IIIIIIIIIII DON’T WANNA BE ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT I’VE BEEN TRYNA BE LATELYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
2. OK it feels like I already reviewed this episode and yet I can’t find it, sooooooo I guess I’m doing it twice.
3. No no I definitely reviewed this.
4. But it’s not in my drafts. Maybe I started and it got deleted.
5. BRO THE VELCRO MESSENGER BAGS. I USED TO HAVE ONE. It was THE thing in the 2000s, fuck a knapsack!
6. FOR. LEYTON?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7. “We could have a car wash.” “Nathan and cars, not a good combo.” He wouldn’t be driving the cars, Lucas.
8. Y’all I swear I did this review.
9. Brooke seriously had some of the best lines
Tumblr media
10. COME ON IT WILL BE FUN TO RAISE MONEY AT A FUNDRAISING EVENT WHERE EVERYONE KNOWS HOW BROKE YOU ARE.
11. I like how Brooke is freaking out over basic tank tops.
12. I like how there aren’t any other avenues for Haley’s music, it HAS to be this tour and this duet with Chris. If she’s so talented she should have other interest.
13. So, the first time I watched this episode, when Nathan tells Brooke that he dreamed about them showering together (which they actually didn’t do, she just showed up naked when he was in the shower), my mom was pretending not to watch the show when it was on and she was like WHY WOULD YOU TELL HER THAT?
14. I am still so mad that they wanted Peyton not to look like complete trash so they had Brooke and Nathan sleep together.
15. Honestly, it would’ve been cool if they developed Peyton and Nathan’s friendship more.
16. If this was FNL, the boosters would’ve taken care of Nathan considering he’s the star player. Gotta get right before the season starts up again.
17. I don’t think I’ve ever had Cracker Jack.
18. To be honest, I’m not even sure I know what it is. Is it caramel popcorn?
19.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
FOR. LEYTON?????
20. Haley, your husband was in a car accident. You’re not even calling anyone for updates.
21. This Dan/Nathan scene is supposed to be high tension and emotional and I’m just getting flashbacks to watching my grandfather’s stories.
22. Wrote you this, I hope you got it safe, it’s been so long, I don’t know what to say... OTH and Grey’s had a lot of the same music.
23.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“it was only about Jenny and her trying to create a family because of her daddy issues!” shut up.
24. Brooke finding Peyton’s stuff is always like damn
Tumblr media
even though i do NOT ship Chair it gives me Chair vibes when I felt so bad for Blair when Chuck said he didn’t love her
Tumblr media
25. THE. ANGST.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media

For the fanfic asks 14. a fic you didn’t expect to write?
Oooh, thank you for the ask!
TBH, a lot of the fics I wrote in 2023 were unexpected (I wasn't expecting to be writing Stizzy fics prior to S2E5 of OFMD, for example, and I certainly didn't anticipate that one crab-alien monsterfucker fic that Hopeless Scribe talked me into! 🦀🦀🦀)
But I think the one that surprised me most was probably the Doctorcest fic. 😂 Given that I haven't watched Doctor Who regularly since what that douche-canoe asshat Moffat did to River Song, and even before then I wasn't at the writing fic level of fandom.
(Yes, I gave 13 a try. I liked her and all, it just didn't compel me).
But I'm a Tennant fankid from way back, so obviously I was gonna watch the 60th Anniversary specials, and wow did The Giggle in general, and Gatwa and Tennant's chemistry and clear joy in being there together in particular, just take my breath away. Especially after Season 2 of Our Flag Means Death broke my heart, having an episode of television that basically said "hey, you have to take some time to rest and heal and that's okay" was exactly what I needed at the end of this year. And I was definitely not expecting Russell T. "I Love Tragedy" Davies to give it to us, so. Yay! 💗

Here is a comprehensive list of my opinions of things that could have been handled better in season 2 of hsmtmts immediately after watching the finale:
1. Ashlyn’s insecurity about playing Belle! She was so insecure after watching North High’s video with Lily and had a lot of doubts this season and I don’t remember a super clear resolution on that plot line
2. The Seblos fight resolution. I love that Carlos made Seb feel secure about him liking Seb for himself not because he’s the only other gay kid at school when he sang In A Heartbeat; but what happened to the plot line about their income difference and the jealousy Seb felt about the guys Carlos was with on vacation? And idk if this was a full fight but Carlos never apologized for saying that Chip wasn’t an important character in the musical when it clearly upset Seb. I just feel like they had more conflict than resolution this season which kinda sucked cause I love them together
3. Give Seb more screen time. He was a main character this season and didn’t have much more screen time than last season
4. GIVE EJ MORE SCREEN TIME!!! He was the only senior of the group and basically did nothing for the first half of the season. Also Matt Cornett has an amazing voice and I would have loved to hear him sing more since this was his last time being in an East High productions since EJ is graduating.
5. Also where is EJ going to college? Why did we never see him talk to his dad about that and actually give the Duke plot line a solid ending?
6. The thing that made me the most frustrated was the way every episode this season ended with a cliffhanger and almost all of them were resolved off screen. I wanted to see Ricky’s transformation, Nini reacting to The Rose Song being out on Instagram, Kourtneys reaction to Howie singing If I Can’t Love Her, etc
7. Gina and Carlos being friends. Gina threw him a whole party when she thought she was moving and they got super close, and then just didn’t interact for the rest of the season
8. Also Gina Kourtney and Ashlyn’s friendship!! 123 was a great song and I loved their vibes and then they kind of just dropped it
9. EJ being in the AV club was brought up like maybe twice. Also what happened to the morning show? That could have been fun to expand on I think
10. Some kind of resolution for Rina. I personally ship Portwell but to have all of this build up for Rina in season 1 and the first half of season 2 and then just kind of drop it felt weird. Like Gina was ready to leave East High because of Ricky and I love that she stayed because of Ashlyn and EJ and all her friends but those are some pretty intense feelings to just never talk about again
11. I get the sentiment of dropping out of the Menkies, but that makes the whole season feel so pointless. All of the conflict that wasn’t relationship based this season was about winning this competition and then at the very end nobody cared anymore. That feels weird for all the characters but especially Miss Jenn who wanted this more than anyone. Also are we ever going to find out if North High won? What is Zacky Roy up to? He just stole the Beast mask and then disappeared.
12. I think setting up another plot line for Nini to potentially leave again next season feels really redundant and useless unless Olivia Rodrigo is actually leaving the show (which I hope she isn’t)
13. Big Red and Ashlyn are the healthiest relationship in the show (even if they are kind of cringe sometimes, ex: maybe we could hold each other for warmth and oooh a forbidden romance) but I think a love confession would have been nice in the finale for them
14. Howie’s explanation in the finale for acting weird in episode 11 did not seem genuine to me and I’m worried if there’s a season three that they’re going to make him somehow involved in the whole harness situation. I loved the plot twist of him being the Beast but Kourtney deserves to date someone who isn’t constantly being framed as an antagonist
15. Miss Jenn needed to actually apologize to her students for the way she acted pretty much all season. Wanting to settle a score with your high school ex does not excuse anything she did this season. Also I hated how she brought up the fact that she told Ricky to jump off of something high and then didn’t apologize to him LOL
16. I wish we could have seen everyone’s bows/curtain calls like we did in season one.
17. My friend pointed this out to me but the lighting in season 2 was so much darker than in season 1 and it kind of made the whole vibe of the season less fun I think
18. Idk if I’m the only one but I just want Miss Jenn to choose a love interest and stick with them. I don’t have a strong preference for who it is but I’m getting kind of tired of her constantly going back and forth
19. I still don’t get why they broke up Rini. I mean I’m glad they broke up because they were really unhealthy this season, but I don’t get why the writers chose to make them super unhealthy when pretty much the whole point of Season 1 was to watch them get back together. I mean their I Love You scene was the peak of the show in my opinion and the fact that they threw away all of their relationship development almost immediately in season 2 was disappointed for me
20. I hope they do HSM 2 or HSM 3 for season 3 because even though I love Beauty and the Beast this is HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL the musical the series and I think that basing this series around the HSM franchise was a huge reason why this show is so successful so I would love to see them continue actually singing songs from HSM
Having said all that, I’m still in love with this show and all the characters and am desperately waiting for a season 3 announcement

The Destiel Folder: Season 6
[Season 4; Season 5] Man, this season... an emotional rollercoaster
Episode 3:
Cas admits he and Dean "share a more profound bond." (15:35) uuuhmm okay
"You think I came because you called?" (16:31) cut to "I always come when you call" later on in E21
"When a claim is laid on a living sould, it leaves a mark, a brand." ... like a handprint maybe? (22:33) Cas basically called dibs on Dean and admits it
Dean, I get it, Cas looks hot when he fights, but you don't have to look at him like this (24:42)
Tumblr media
The amount of eye-fucking in this scene (25:56) almost 30 seconds (of Dean checking out Cas) of Old married coupleTM moments. Dean is worried about Cas dying again by the hands of an archangel. He just got attacked and wants to go out. But Cas has to go save the universe from a holy war. Basically a wife asking her soldier husband not to leave for the war.
[(26:28-26:30) Dean was totally looking at the BOOTY]
NOW FOR THE JUICY STUFF: Cas and Balthazar obviously had a history. More than brothers or war buddies. We could parallel them to Dean and Lisa: both old flames coming back after a long time and all.
Also, Balthazar can sense something is going on between Cas and Dean. It's so clear he can (35:26). ICWAW, we would assume Balthazar was an ex, getting jealous over Cas' new love interest
Tumblr media
Episode 6:
"You asked me to be here, and I came", OH what about the whole 'I don't come because you call' thing? (13:40)
How domestic is this moment. Cas pouring Dean a drink, trying to comfort him (14:03). He hates seeing Dean like this, and hates even more the fact he can't do anything about it
Cas knows Dean is hurt enough already, and doesn't want to get him involved with a war that's not his to fight (14:20), but still wants to help
Episode 7:
Second time Cas starts stripping in front of Dean and he just stares (2:32)
Look, all I'm saying is... they really don't have to stand THAT CLOSE to each other (4:07)
Tumblr media
Episode 9:
[Not a destiel moment but Dean struggling to say the words "gay guy" is too fucking funny to me (33:45)]
Episode 10:
Dean, will you not check out the angel in front of your brother, please? (11:54)
Dean is visibly uncomfortable at Cas watching porn practically NEXT to him, and having a BONER practically next to him. Understandable, but still... kinda gay (15:58) Look at Dean's face, my God (16:07)
[I'm screaming Dean looks like he's wondering what it'd be like to kiss Cas (25:29)]
"CAS?!" (26:23) the way Dean gets progressively more worried about Cas fading/being taken away and shit, kills me
[Cas is so fucking confused as to why Dean would suggest he'd let him have an hour alone with Meg (39:25), either that or he's embarrassed he might've actually wanted to. Meg and Castiel were cute together]
"If there's anything we can do-" "There isn't. I wish circumstances were different. *stares at Dean with puppy eyes* Much of the time, I'd rather be here." (39:46)
Also, Dean stares at Cas for 15 seconds, but averts his eyes when saying "We're your friends"? (40:01) Denial? Something's off. ICWAW, this would indicate tension, unspoken feelings
Just... the way Dean looks at Cas, and when he flies away (40:17) HIS EYES
Episode 11:
Balth jokingly calls Cas Sam's 'boyfriend', and Sam reacts normally, letting it fly over his head. When later in episode 17, Balth calls Cas "the angel in the dirty trench coat who's in love with you", Dean gets pissy. Just like later in 10x5. Touchy much? (13:48)
Balth admits he doesn't like Dean, and that "screwing him would delight me", but calls the one brother who threatened to crisp his wings, a "capable young man" (14:46). Jealous much? ICWAW we would read some sort of romantic rivalry between those two.
Episode 14:
This face... where have I seen this face before?
Tumblr media
Oh yes, here
Tumblr media
Dean looks at Lisa, the so called "love of his life", the same way he looks at Cas. Fuck my life
Episode 15:
"Cas" (Misha) starts stripping and Dean... stares... again (9:23)
"Well, Cas... now that you have your sword, try not to die by it." (39:53) Is it a saying? Or a reference to Dean being Michael's Sword? As in "He is gonna be the death of you"? And Balth looks at Cas THAT WAY?! (40:01) You can't tell me there was nothing between these two. Kill me now
Fucking stop being an old bitching married coupleTM already (40:25) you are hurting me
Episode 17:
Balth 'jokes' about Cas being in love with Dean (18:48) ICWAW we would read this as an ex being petty about the new love interest and teasing said love interest about it
Wow, jealous much, Dean? Again, ICWAW, this would totally be seen as jealousy for your crush's ex (27:30). And Dean, you're staring at Cas' lips again (27:37)
[Sam: "So, you killed 50,000 people for us?" Cas: *looks at Dean* "... No, I didn't... They were never born." (37:49) This is so stupid, but... sure, Cas... sure. That's what you ment.]
Cas makes a small speech about fighting for freedom, choosing your fate and all, while looking at Dean (38:55). OKAY SUBTEXT!!!
[As soon as Dean mentions boobs, Cas is gone (39:36) LOL]
Episode 19:
"It's not like Cas lives in my ass. The dude's busy. [...] Cas, get out of my ass!!!" "I was never in... your-" (4:28) and then they stare... Were you having unholy thoughts guys?
"Without your power you're basically just a baby in a trench coat" #MARRIED (10:38), "My friend is very sick." "I have a, uh... painful burning sensation." OH COME ON!!! (11:22)
"You know who whines? Babies. *pats Castiel*" (14:28) I'm sorry, pats him wHERE??!!
Tumblr media
Dean saves Cas again (19:38)
The way Cas says "Dean, Dean!" (23:09)... I'm so fucking weak, and look at those EYES! (23:41) kill me now
"The kid... The little kid, he's one of them." "... Unbelievable." "Yeah, I know, Cas. You told me, all right?" (37:48) #MARRIED
Sam and Bobby immediately think Cas might be betraying them (39:31), while Dean won't even immagine the possibility. "This is Cas we're talking about!" (39:52)
Episode 20:
Even tho Dean can sense something is off with Cas, he won't bring himself to admit it. And the eye-car-sex. That. (4:44-4:53)
"You're distracted. [...] Is that all you're holding, huh? See... the stench of that Impala's all over your overcoat, angel." (6:20) this has such sexual undertones. ICWAW, it would be MENT as having sexual undertones. Also Crowley ships it
Dean protects Cas even tho clear evidence is there, and even feels bad about lying to him (12:06). And Cas feels oh so bad about Dean trying to be loyal to him, even when he was starting to suspect (13:18)
Dean still refuses to acknowledge the possibility of Cas' betrayal (19:56). His speech about Cas... I'm weak. "He broke ranks, gone to the mat, cut and bleeding for us, so many frigging times. This is Cas!" (20:10). ICWAW, this would be read as Dean having feelings for Cas, and as those feelings were getting in the way of his best judgment
Cas goes against the King of Hell to save the boys... but Dean first (21:48), and Dean defendes him against Bobby and Sam, apologizing for doubting about him. Cas hates having to break their trust
The look on Dean's face as he realizes Cas had been lying the whole time... BROKEN (23:35-23:49)
Cas doesn't want Dean to have to sacrifice more than he already had for him (25:19), and when Crowley shows up, Cas' first instinct is to look back at Dean protectively (25:30), and does that again before following Crowley (26:17)
Cas wants Dean to be happy, stay retired, even tho he was so longingly looking at him moments earlier (29:09)
"You gotta look at me, man. [...] Look me in the eye and tell me you're not working with Crowley." (32:38) the absolute desperation in both Dean and Cas, how HURT they look. THEIR EYES! Dean looks devastated
Tumblr media
"I did it to protect you, I did it to protect all of you!" (33:09) one of the many "you, all of you" no-homo saves Cas pulls while talking to/about Dean
"I had no choice!" "No, you had a choice... You just made the wrong one." (34:21) how fucking hurt Dean looks. "Where were you when I needed to hear it?" THE EYES
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I was there... Where were you? *flashback to Cas looking back at Dean*" I'M DEAD
"It's not too late. Damn it, Cas. We can fix this!" "Run. You have to run, now. RUN!" (35:33) and they do, but Dean looks back at Cas, and the way they look at each other... STOP (35:47-35:52) ICWAW, this whole scene would seem like someone trying to save their loved one, and OH boy, that stare exchange would seem either a silent confession or a reminder of their feelings for the other
Tumblr media
Cas visits Dean in the night, even tho they clearly don't trust him and don't want him there, and Dean leaves it be (38:06), and even apologizes for having to angel-proof the house against him
#MARRIED (38:28), "I'm doing this for you, Dean. I'm doing this because of you." (38:35) ICWAW... do I even need to point this out?
"Next to Sam, you and Bobby are the closest thing I have to family..." the look on Cas' face as Dean says this (39:15) "... that you are like a brother to me." did Cas' eyes just get more glossy? Poor baby. Also, ICWAW, by the way they interact, this statement would feel wrong on so many levels
"You're just a man. I'm an angel." ... why does it feel like Cas is telling that to himself more than to Dean? (39:43) "I'm sorry, Dean." (39:55) Kill me
Cas questions his decisions, asks God for guidance, the moment he understood he hurt Dean. He doesn't want to hurt Dean, but will do what he has to do to if it means he will be safe
Episode 21:
[Not a destiel moment, but "fragile masculinity" much, Dean? (4:20) "I was too busy having sex with women." (why do you feel the need to specify 'women'?)]
This Dean-Balth bickering has such current-former love interest fight vibes (8:52). Come on, ICWAW, this would totally be the case
Here's another Cas/Lisa parallel: how Dean acts here, looking for Ben and Lisa (13:11), and how he acts in S8 while looking for Castiel ("WHERE'S THE ANGEL!?")
Cas saves Dean again (21:46). "I didn't ask for your help." "Well, regardless. You're welcome." #MARRIED
They are both on the verge of tears... "I thought you said that we were like family." (22:22) They hate this situation. They hate not being like always, close, friendly, family
"Dean... I do everything that you ask... I always come when you call. And I am your friend." (22:39) the way he says 'Dean' and how his voice trembles. Dean is basically almost crying now (23:45)
"Dean, I said I'm sorry and I ment it." "Thank you... I wish this changed anything..." "I know.. So do I." (37:45)
[Alright. I do believe Dean really grew to love Lisa during that year they spent together, but I don't buy the "I always loved you, ever since that one hook up on that one weekend we knew each other for" shit. Dean wanted to give a try to the whole 'apple pie life' he'd promised Sam, with a good woman he knew Dean had feelings for.
If he grew to love Lisa over a couple of years after 1 hook up, I'm sure he could do the same thing for Cas after over a decade (he for sure would have already If Cas Were A Woman)]
Episode 22:
["You've always got little old me." "Yes... I'll always have you." (30:26) These two... Come on, they HAD to be ex lovers!]
"We were family once. I'd have died for you. I almost did a few times (Cas did actually, twice). So if that means anything to you... Please... I've lost Lisa, I've lost Ben, and now I've lost Sam... Don't make me lose you too." (39:55) ICWAW, this would be seen as a straight up CONFESSION
The hurtful look on Dean's face when Cas says "You're not my family, Dean.", and the terror when he thought for a second that Sam might have killed him (40:39)
["You will bow down and profess your love unto me, your Lord... or I shall destroy you." ... okay, Cas, honey, I get you are tired of waiting, but this is not the right way to get a confession out of Dean (41:20)]
[Season 7>>]

4x08 Recap
Y’all I’m so confused like what did I just watch. I have so many mixed emotions on this episode so much whiplash. Apologies in advance this got really long. Let’s start from the top shall we...
1. Rio threatens Beth’s family if she doesn’t come up with a fall guy for her deal with the SS. Like was this a for real threat because we all know his threats to her pretty much empty. 
2. Rio’s backstory in my opinion was POINTLESS. The only things that were confirmed is that his name is actually Rio (no last name still), where he got some of his colorful sayings from, the money he got growing up from his criminal acts he spent it on his grandmother who basically raised him, and that Nick is a bitch lol. 
3. No explanation on the “Phoenix” it was on his jacket and then he goes to jail and comes back with a throat tatt. 
4. Nick is a freaking creep bringing Beth her cardigan. This got me thinking why would he have it did Rio not see it when he found the wire in the last episode? Why would you take it upon yourself to confront your bro/cousin’s girl about their relationship and then flirt with her? 
5. Dean is and will always be a USELESS loser. He couldn’t even handle a mini spat between Emma and Danny without calling for Beth’s help. He’s literally the fifth child. 
6. Why is the hot tub still in the living room? Like this makes no sense when you have a big ass background. I’m chucking this up to the laziness of the prop stylists on set to move the hot tub. 
7. I enjoyed the strip club montage with the girls spending money on the most clothed strippers while eating from a seafood buffet and drinking mimosas and tequila shots. I feel like this scene has been done in a fic somewhere lol. 
8. Gene trying to recruit Annie to audition for the club I found oddly amusing in their banter about gymnastics. 
9. Gene is the worse criminal. His montage of spilling his guts to the SS was hilarious. I got confused on which criminal he was describing with the bonor pills and fentanyl. 
10. Phoebe’s obsession with this fake friendship she has with Beth is starting to creep me out. It’s giving me “Single White Female” vibes. Next she’s going to be stuffing her bra with tissues to get her chest since Dave commented on her small bag brigade. 
11. Literally in a state of confusion over the gardening scene with Nick and Beth. I’ll have to go back and rewatch this several times because I had no idea what they were talking about. Also like dude can you stop calling her “Elizabeth” the lady asked you once and you still do it. You’re about as smooth as an ocean during a tsunami. 
Tumblr media
12. THE PICNIC SCENE + HIS ARREST BROKE ME!! HOW DARE JENNA AND BILL DO THIS TO US. DID YOU SEE THE UTTER DISGUST AND BETRAYAL ON HIS FACE AS HE WAS BEING HANDCUFFED? THAT WILL BE ON CONSTANT REPEAT IN MY MIND. SOMEONE NEEDS TO WRITE AN ANGSTY FIC USING THIS LOOK. 
13. I’m still broken over the arrest scene. 
14. Another Nick is a bitch point with getting his cousin arrested for the credit card theft. I thought blood was thicker than water. You snake. Rio’s first rotten egg. 
15. Rio walking out of the police station like a model was so HOT. He looked so good in that escalade with Nick. Our poor boy was heartbroken knowing that he would have no choice to kill his wife. 
16. I was actually scared for 0.02 seconds when Rio appeared in the chair but I forgot “you don’t kill something you love.” Dean was good for something with that one liner. 
17. “You just didn’t choose ME.” I mean WOW. I felt that when he said it. He's so happy to attempt once again to enter into a crime marriage with her. I could see Mick now like “dude what level of betrayal can this broad do before you don’t get a boner for her?” 
18. We didn’t see how the real brotherhood started with Mick and Rio like damn wtf. 
19. All in All I'm confused on how I really feel but I liked the episode I guess. 
20. I can’t believe we only got one sexy Brio moment in this first half of the Spring season before we go on a month hiatus for the back half of the season. They better makeup and I mean Beth better show up for Rio in a BIG way to show that she is for once all in.

TPN S2 THOUGHTS
Okay so I have to admit, I was like mostly confused after episode 3.... :((
1. I was kind of amazed how they thought of adding their own scenes and characters in the anime to try and basically summarize A BUNCH of chapters that happened in the manga but they did not include in the anime.
2. I don't think you'd understand the ending montage if you didn't read the manga. You'd have to spend time interpreting it as it is being shown but if you did read the manga, you'd know what was happening as soon as the pictures or panels came on. I may or may not be right here.
3. I was very glad that Emma didn't lose her memories and that Isabella (BEST MOM) didn't die in the end. AND BOY WAS I SO GLAD TO SEE TEENAGE PHIL OH MY GOD.
4. In summarizing the manga for the plot in the manga, they left out A BUNCH of context that we should've known as the story went by or as it was shown. (ex. William Minerva was actually aka James Ratri, what exactly was the promise or how was it exactly formed?, who were those people shown at the end and who is "Her Majesty", feel free to add anything I'm missing)
5. I don't exactly hate it since animes aren't supoposed to be exactly like the manga since they are just ADAPTATIONS of the manga. It depends on the makers if they want to make it exactly like the manga or convey the better story they think should have happened. Not all animes have the same plots and scenes from the manga so don't be surprised if you see a different anime from the manga. But it's reasonable to still say AAAAHHHHHHHHH
6. I'm a little sad how they didn't draw Norman to look a little more mature but I think that was the point?? But another issue here IS, when they found Norman in the manga, they were supposed to be around 13 going 14?? But they did look more mature compared to when they had just left Grace Field which was what I was kinda hoping for (ngl i was waiting for Teenage Norman because he looked FINE). But in the anime, they looked the same as they had when they had just left the House but with different hairstyles and i just--- I'm sad about that.
7. While I was watching, I couldn't help but compare the entire thing to my knowledge from reading the manga so I got confused and had to pause the episode multiple times to recap what had happened in the episodes before and not the story from the chapters I've read ://
8. I WAS UPSET THEY DIDN'T ADD THAT ONE DUKE THAT I KNOW WE ALL LIKED AND KINDA SIMPED FOR BUT I FORGOT THE NAME.
9. They also didn't mention the actual name of "Shawarma" or HIM because I'm pretty sure NO ONE ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT IT'S REAL NAME IS BAHAHAHAHAHHAH
10. Gotta admit, that scene where Emma sees Norman as a wittle crying baby holding a knife BROKE ME. IT JUST CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND UGH MY HEART JUST BROKE
11. Gotta say, the ending was kinda rushed. I actually thought the whole thing with the royals and nobles was going to be the plot for season 3 but then they actually fast forwarded EVERYTHING THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED so that it would fit in the ending which... I don't know how to feel about....
Add some more stuff if you guys wantt ;))

How I Met Your Mother Thoughts Part 2
11. Robin left the group until Tracy died and then started coming around again.  Proof: In “Bad Crazy”, the time jumps are 4, 12, 14, 16, and 17 years.  4 is right after the divorce (2017) where she’s trying to stay connected due to Lily’s insistence.  Then the very next time jump is 2013 plus 12 = 2025, the year after Tracy dies.  She’s hanging around again because Ted’s available.  Of course he’s hurting, and not open to moving on (as he has a ten year old and eight year old to think about), so, it’s another two years.  Still not ready, two more years.  Then one year when he’s getting closer and closer to being ready, which is why she hangs out with them more and more.  
Also, further proof: Penny at five has no idea who Robin is.  She calls Robin “The bus lady”.  This is right before the deleted scene where Robin asks Ted if he wanted to continue with the forty deal (and Ted then decides it’s time to make Tracy his wife).  BUT in earlier episodes, and in general, he refers to her as “aunt Robin” and says she starred in their colored pictures.  Since they were 9 and 7 when Tracy died, it still makes sense that Robin would star in their pictures if she started coming around, again.  
Side note, Ted’s not the reason Jeanette is crazy, she was crazy before.
12. It was cruel of Robin and Barney to have Ted as their best man.  Especially, after he told her he loved her the year before.  It was even worse for Barney to ask him to be his best man, but then take it away without even talking to him.  The entire episode of “The Broken Code”, Barney was being unnecessarily cruel to Ted.  A) because Barney broke the code first, and B) because without breaking the code, the whole wedding wouldn’t happen.  Especially when it was Barney’s fault he wasn’t there for Robin, Robin fault that she called and she was grabbed his hand, not the other way around.  His hand is face down on his knee.  She reaches over and grabs it.
Side note, why the hell wasn’t James Barney’s best man?  Either from the beginning or when the “code” was broken.  James should’ve been his best man.  I’d be offended if I was James.  Especially when James/Tom relationship was part of why Barney was warming up to marriage in the first place.
13. Ted’s decision to move to Chicago was stated to happen in “Something New”, but I think it actually happened in “Romeward Bound”.  Why?  Because his best friends are moving to Italy for a year, and there’s that moment where Ted knowing Robin better than Barney, tells Barney that the whole “look don’t touch” thing is not okay with her.  As we know from her aversion to strip clubs and her reaction to Barney’s declaration that she’s okay with it the first time they dated, she is definitely not okay with it.  Even Lily says the same thing, but Barney was cold when he told Ted to back off.  This was the moment that Ted realized without being able to talk out his frustrations with Marshall and Lily, he’ll go crazy.  Just like the year before when he left the apartment because he needed a change, he needed to leave New York, no matter how much he loved it.  Seeing how quickly he changes gears to stay, it’s clear that he just needed happiness and/or at least a buffer.  If Marshall/Lily weren’t planning to move, he wouldn’t either.
14. I’m rewatching Season 2, so this might be a little ranty, but seriously, Lily was so wrong in “How Lily Stole Christmas”.  First of all, Ted was right to call her names when you consider that she waited 9 years to decide she needed to find herself, and when you’re angry, especially in that situation, you’re going to say awful things to make yourself feel better (and Marshall needed to hear bad things about her to start moving on, he had put her on pedestal and she needed come off for him to move on).  Second of all, she wasn’t just punishing Ted, she was also punishing Marshall, who did nothing to her.  
Also, she lives with them (something that has been going on for six years since they moved in there in 2000), and if she kept being so petty, she was going to break up their long lasting friendship because he had the right to be angry over her abandoning Marshall since he was dealing with the result of her actions (and clearly supporting Marshall because he laid around all summer drinking).  I’m not saying she couldn’t be angry about what he said, but stealing Christmas away from both Ted and Marshall was wrong.  Anyway, that brings me to another point.
15. Lily’s Credit Card debt.  This is a second reason that many people, at least on Reddit, attack Lily, and I have to say that I understand how she ends up in so much debt.  First, it’s the clothes, but the main issues are A) paying for apartments and utilities that she’s not actually living in because she needed it for her independence  B) not working for a private school to make more money and C) she tends to ignore her debt entirely until she has no choice.  Both she and Marshall spend money as soon as they get it, even when they were in debt from the wedding, school, and Lily’s shopping sprees, which only makes it worse.
16. Making the Wedding that Ted met Tracy at be Barney and Robin’s wedding, while makes sense from a story point of view (since it starts with Robin, so letting go of Robin makes sense to be able to move onto the love of his life), was a bad decision for the show.  Why?  Since Ted was ready to be married from Pilot and Barney was the anti-marriage guy for the first like four seasons, it caused Ted’s plot to basically pause until Barney caught up and then surpassed him.  The last 3 seasons focus on Barney’s development from one night stands to being a one-woman man, meanwhile Ted, who’s already at the commitment point is stuck in pauseland because his story needs Barney to surpass him.  For me, having Ted be a bystander in his own story, makes the story drag.  I really don’t like the last few seasons because of the focus on Barney’s development when I’m here for Ted’s story.
17. “Lucky Penny” is a good episode, except for the annoying completely unprofessional Airport Personal and glaring plot holes regarding the timeline. I also don’t like the scene where the kid with a broken leg, the old lady, and the pregnant lady are all practically demanding that he get up, like they own his seat. He had every right to that seat, jelly legs or not.  However, I really like the idea that Tracy actually dropped the penny, and even more that is why his daughter’s name is Penny. I also like the connection - this wouldn’t have happened if that hadn’t happened, and that wouldn’t have happened if that other thing didn’t happen. Basically, this is the entire series.  
If Ted never met Robin, he would never date her, if he never dated her, they wouldn’t break up, if they didn’t break up, he wouldn’t have gotten the Butterfly Tattoo, if he hadn’t gotten the Tattoo, he never would’ve met Stella.  If he hadn’t met Stella, he never would’ve gotten left at the alter, if he hadn’t gotten left at the alter, Tony wouldn’t have given him the Professor Job.  If he never became a professor, he never would’ve met Cindy, if he never met Cindy, he never would’ve prompted her to realize that she’s a lesbian, and then randomly running into her allowed for Tracy to be the band at the wedding.  I think I lost track after Cindy, but the entire story is all if this happened then that happened.  
18. Ted helping Victoria run away from her wedding was totally Out Of Character.  Ted was left at the alter and it nearly destroyed him, but he randomly decides to run off with Victoria, completely allowing Klaus to go through that same pain?  It just doesn’t make sense.  He got closure in “The Ducky Tie”, he didn’t need to go out with her again.  Also, the fact that she blamed him for her cold feet and decision to run off from her wedding soured me on her.  It was her decision, her freak out, she did not have to answer the call or show up at the bar, and she certainly didn’t have to use Ted as an excuse to leave.  Besides, Klaus also left, so it was going down the drain anyway.  Also, I got irrationally mad that her dad apparently expected Ted to pay, uh, no.  That’s on Klaus and Victoria, not Ted.
19.  Speaking of!  Going back to Season 1  “The Wedding”.  Ted honestly thought that he checked plus 1, so I get why he worked so hard to get Robin to go to the wedding, but the fact that it sparked the Temporary End of Stuart and Claudia was not his fault.  He would not have owed them the money back, especially when their relationship was clearly fragile if that fight on the eve of their wedding could end it.  Also, they clearly should never have gotten married, seeing what we see of them later on, it’s really obvious they are not compatible, and they would’ve been better off with other people.
20. In the “Duel”, Ted and Marshall are passive aggressively fighting about the apartment, which was brought up again in Season 9 “The Poker Game”.  Apparently, despite living together, they cannot discuss things openly and honestly, which is hilarious, how do you live with someone for most of your adult life and not learn how to talk?  
So, anyway, the reason I bring up “Duel” is that Barney tells Ted that he’s being edged out, and asks him if he’s going to still be his (Marshall’s) roommate when he’s married, and fun fact, for the first year and a half of their marriage, he is their roommate.  Also, in that same time period, they are apparently fighting over the wedding present that Ted didn’t get them, even though A) they live together B) How would Stuart know what Marshall’s favorite Coffee Maker was and C) Ted gave them 2 grand to finish their hardwood floors in their new apartment.  It doesn’t make any sense for Marshall and Lily to be hung up on a specific present when Ted SOLD his new car and GAVE them a lot of money for their new apartment, even though he would eventually be down a roommate (well, 2) and have his rent go up (because he’d now have to pay Marshall’s half).  I love Marshall, but come on, dude, no need to be so...what’s the word?...Greedy?  
                                                       ***
Anyway, I still have more thoughts, but have no idea how to be less wordy, so new post will eventually come.

I caught up on the Fruits Basket Anime. Now please understand that I was obsessively buying the books as they came out when I was in high school (and reading online when things weren't caught up). It's the only Manga series where I own the full series in book form, and the only set of Manga I brought with me when I moved. I reread the series in 2019 a couple months before the anime came out. I have read this series many dozens of times. Tohru is still one of my favorite characters ever.
And I just have a few thoughts.
1. The new Anime is MILES ABOVE THE OLD ONE!
2. For the most part, if I disliked a change between Manga and anime, it was probably because there was a particular line I missed.
3. I think everything they added and changed to Ritsu's episode just made everything about that character better. I really feel like Ritsu and Mitsuru make sense from the hints we get. Mi-chan accepts Ritsu and wants to be friends and gets along with Ritsu so easily. This is one of the best changes in the show.
4. Uotani telling her back story always makes me cry. I always cry when she talks about the lights going out in the apartment window. I feel like the anime didn't follow through with that scene quite as much as I wished, but the anime showed how Kyoko and Tohru's apartment became a home for her. So when I cried at that scene in the anime, it was less because of Uo basically begging for Kyoko to come back, and instead because that very home was entirely broken and gone.
5. I've known Akito is awful for years, but man oh man, I like forgot just how bad it got! I love the character. I think Akito is super fascinating and I love her whole plotline. But she's vicious and brutal in the worst way. I know from the Manga that 1) her abuse is something awful, since Ren basically twists her all up and the people who could stop her (like the older servants) give her everything rather than treat her like the child she is, and 2) the series goes out of its way to show how none of the characters actually have to forgive her, that it's all about choices.
6. The anime really hammers home how awful Shigure is, starting early. I appreciate it.
7. Hearing Shigiraki and All Might argue because Shigiraki thinks his big brother All Might is too flighty is just so weird to me!
8. You can totally tell how much better of a VA Laura Bailey has become. I never liked her work in the original because it just sounded like Keiko from yyh too much. But now she sounds the way Tohru should sound..
9. It's very obvious how much Tohru and Kyo are flirting super early on because of the actual voice acting itself. So good!
10. Understanding that I watched 8 hours of FB yesterday and 12 hours today to watch the whole series, and was pretty much done by the time the last 5 episodes were playing, but I thought the pacing on the second seasom felt odd. This is a series I've read a lot, but season 2 seemed to drag in places, though I'm willing to say that may just be because I overloaded on it.
11. Kureno was such a non-entity to me in the manga but they did such a good job making me care about him. Despite the little amount of time Uo and Kureno spent together, their interest is clear. Also, she will be 18 by the time they actually get together. Also, also, I like age gap pairings where the younger one is actually the one with more experience.
12. In the manga, Mayu and Hatori are one of my favorite pairings. I loved them so much that even though I had created an OC to ship with him, I basically broke them up in my head because I couldn't stand Hatori not being with Mayu. I adored them so much and was so excited to see their episode. But then I saw it and it just felt... weird. Like their affection is more obvious when they talk about each other when they aren't in the room. I hate that this didn't work for me because I love them.
13. I never liked Kana, but I am actually more sympathetic to her now, especially seeing how wrecked she was when Mayu visited.
14. I really, really don't like Momiji's dad. The man is so selfish! At least with Momiji's mother, it's likely she had severe post partum depression. I didn't realize she'd tried to kill herselfm removing her memories was probably the only way to help her live. That being said, I like to imagine that Momiji's mother finds out what her husband allowed to happen (isolating Momiji and taking what he loved from him so the man could pretend to have the perfect family), that she divorces him, takes Momo away and tries to mend her relationship with Momiji.
15. I just love Tohru! I adore her so much.
16. The way the colored certain things different (or different than I imagined) is super weird to my brain!
17. While I was expecting some of the visual gags from the original anime, and from time to time miss some of them, I think not including them was for the best.
18. The part of Momiji's eye that should be the pupil is green and that's weird to me.
19. I found Momiji in the old anime very annoying to the point that I started to not like him in the manga. But I love him here so much. But I miss Momiji's song from the bathhouse episode. Also, the german accent is great!
20. They really gave Haru so much personality and I love it!
21. Seeing Yuki really loosen up is wonderful.
22. MACHI!!

Back Story-
--------
Minor family background for any hickups or confusion it might cause-
Lillian is Agustus' older sister. I'll post details on her at a later date
_______
At 3 months old she was separated from her mother forcefully by Augustus, Leaving Julius to raise her as single father (With the help of Servants of course) to the best of his ability, while also taking his duty as a magic knight seriously.
Luckily for him she was an easy-going baby with minor hickups every once and a while.
When she was around 2 years old her interest in the world of entertainment sprang to life. when she passed by a street preformers with her Nanny after visiting her father at the Grey Deer Base. She was captivated by the preformer's ability to make to many people clap and smile by singing and dancing. Which she began copying at home; to the best of her 2 year old ability she sang and wobbled around trying to copy the preformers, the first time Julius witnessed the behavior he thought something was wrong but was pleasantly relieved when he figured out what she was doing.
At age 4 she was enrolled into her first Theater Arts class, where she thrived in learning skills of performance. Due to her now having something to do during the day made Julius' worries go away for a while. Till at age 5 when she sprained her ankle after slipping during a dance routine. During her two weeks of recovery she began taking her magic training seriously, and found it odd she could make balloons that when popped scattered confetti.
She grew insecure of her odd magic and began hiding afraid her father would be upset she didn't have magic like him, but Julius saw her cast the spell one day when he came home way earlier than normal to check up on her as she was forced to stay off her feet till she was fully recovered. He was immediately thrilled by her kind of magic, and he was the one to give her magic type a name.
At age 5 she had her first crush on the infamous "Zara Ideale" mainly from stories her father told her but she was able to see him in person once on her way home from school and did receive his autograph that keeps hidden and well kept.
At age 7 she met Yami Sukehiro, they had an immediate attachment with a sibling like bond and often did their studies together. The two where inseparable for the most part, he took his new job as part time big brother seriously and became a new support system for both her and her overworked father. While Mimi still did alot of work with Adderin having someone young like Yami around took a load off her shoulders as she wasn't young like when she raised julius and running around with her was becoming difficult.
Yami, Adderin and Julius lived together fine, but Adderin had minor attachment issues when Yami became a Magic knight. But by that time she already had a full schedule between regular school and her Theater classes as her first big show was coming up. Julius, Yami and Mimi all attended for the show but to their surpjse despite Adderins talent she was only a bush that threw confetti. Despite that she was happy after the show, her first big time on the stage and she was love struck by stardom. The stage was her new home, and now with the goal of being the Star of the next show she had Julius enroll her in more dance classes, singing and other things that would help her raise skills to do so.
At age 9 she met William Vangeance, and his mask absolutely terrified her. Causing her to cry on site. Not being much of a cryer hearing her cry broke Julius' heart as he's the one who made it. She eventually got used to it but did stray away from William as much as possible in the process of getting used to him.
(Biggest Physical difference- at this age she's 5'6).
One time, he unfortunately spooked her on accident as was met with the knife Yami got her for her 10th birthday to the arm. Which she quickly apologized for, and got a scolding from both her father and Yami. After that Adderin and William began to understand each other more, soon growing close like she did with Yami.
Age 11 her hard work payed off and she received the lead role in her schools musical rendition of Princess and the Pea. Although her cast mates found it annoying she was able to everything near perfect while they where still beginning learner's. To compromise this little issue she was switched from lead role to an Uglystep sister(Anastasia) with the older kids and their rendition of Cinderella. This did send her into a minor depression slump and it did Alarm Julius Severely to see her taking her magic training more seriously than rehearsing for the show. He knew the switch took a grand hit to her mental state and did his best to comfort her.
At 12 the theater school completely dropped her. Saying she was to advanced for them despite her young age. And for that reason she couldn't go into the other school till she was 15 and had her grimore. This completely destroyed her, sending her into a 3 month long depression episode as the school was the only place people talked to her despite being excluded from her peers due to not having any hobbies and interestss outside of theater and entertainment. With her father nearly working all the time, Yami and William as well she spent this time of her life completely secluded from the world other than Mimi.
Age 13… has to be the roughest year for her socially. Her father had officially became the Wizard king and William and Yami became captains soon after everyone who used to know her from the school recognized the name Novachrono and they reconized her father. Soon all the children who dreamed or had siblings who dreamed of becoming magic knights started trying to hang around her, but Adderin was an advanced actor and knew they where putting up an act to see if they could chest the system. And she fed into their lies and they fed into hers. But the toll of being recognized as nothing more than his daughter eventually took it's toll on her mental state that led her into alot of trouble. Eventually she decided to let go of her dreams of being a preformer and become a magic knight. It was what all her "friends" were doing and she desperately wanted to fit in. She began taking her magic training seriously but no one took her magic seriously, it was seen as nothing more than a party gag.
(14)Due to his increase of work Julius didn't notice his daughters toxic friend group or her declining mental state till Mimi visited the Magic Knights HC and addressed her concerns. One night he came home earlier to make sure he could be able to sit down for dinner in time only to find her crying in her room. All he could do as assure her the next year she'd be able to return to the world of entertainment doing what would make her happy. Around this age she also stopped growing reaching 5'10 leaving her an awkward giant among her "friends"
Age 15, when she finally received her grimore she took her training more seriously than before, it saddened Julius to see her abandoning her dreams to follow the line but supported her the entire way through. She managed to get into her father's old squad "The Grey Deer", she stayed until a few weeks before her 16th Birthday when she was formally kicked out of the magic knights by her father. He hated seeing her so depressed and uniformed, he wanted her to thrive in an environment where she was happy. So she did, leaving the magic knights and winding up at the nearest circus due to them accepting aspiring preformers.
At 16 she was selected to be the main act for the first show of the season, which she did infact write her father to let him know the big news. Her performance was a big hit among all viewers, new and old. Her magic combined with her natural skill captivated the eyes of so many people she was quickly met with loyal fans and fanclub's for her. The name "Princess Poppy" quickly spread across the world of entertainment.
By age 17 she had merchandising of her,(which her father collected loyaly)Everything from stickers to full-blown figurines, she was a circus idol.
Although she never wondered about her mother when Damnatio asked if she wanted to meet her, she was confused. Her entire life she was told her mother was dead so she never bothered. But when the entire situation was explained, she took his offer and decided to meet her mother in secret.
Which was a decision she'd come to regret after Lillian tried to freeze her throat shut. She was quickly rushed to Owen, luckily Fuegoleon was in the building with a few CLKs who needed treatment after a mission and was able to warm her throat back up but despite his and Owens efforts her thyroid could not be repaired.
Julius was furious at the ordeal and nearly killed Damnatio for setting up the entire thing. But his heart was broken when she asked him "Why did you lie about mom being dead" he realized he also had a shoulder of responsibility for never explaining to her the situation which led her to curiosity to meet the woman she believed dead.
Age 18-
Still recovering from her accident with her mother and getting back into her normal life and routine she found herself chasing after a small rodent who stole her favorite scrunchie, unknowingly running into EOTMS territory and accidentally trampling over "Licht", tripping over him dragging them both into a ditch. Which got a good chuckle out of Rhya seeing the tall clown completely wind their leader.
They where ready to kill her but where surprised to see she was able to send their magic back as the opposite magic type twice as strong with some sort of mirror. She eventually just started visiting them every so often bringing snacks and preforming small gags not caring what they where doing or even questioning what they where doing there, eventually growing an attachment to Patri and Patris attachment to the goofy clown idol was mutual, finding himself longing for her when she left for long periods of times for traveling shows. .
After one particularly special night the two found themselves kissing by the lake after a deep conversation with each other. But Adderin was the first one to admit her love to him and the two began dating in secret till Rhya called Patri out on his lie when questioning him about what the human meant to him.
At age 19 her world was flipped upside down, as her father's relationship with one of his Advisor's was brought to light. It was the first time in her life she'd ever call someone out of their name and the first time she'd ever expressed pure anger towards Julius. Lisa's was the only one ever Adderin made call her by her first name and title, with her "Lady May-Bella" was all she'd respond to.
It didn't take long for Patri or anyone she hung around to notice hellish mood, someone who normally appeared to happy and untouchable carrying such wrath and hatred scared him alot. But when she said the only thing she wanted was time with him he nearly melted inside. And so she got what she wanted for nearly two weeks she stayed with Patri off the grid which sent panic through Julius when the Ring Master contacted him when she didn't return after the first night thinking she was at home with him as she didn't tell anyone where or who she took off with
Although, about a month from that incident she found herself returning to the capital with news for her father. She somehow had to manage the courage to tell him she was with child. But all but great panic set upon her when seeing a mass light magic spell she knew belonged to Patri, followed by a spell just as large belonging to her father's time magic. Soon followed by the grand attack of elves but she was only able to reach and tell Patri, right before he gave the body back to William. All he could do was kiss her forehead and tell her he was sorry he had to leave. Although minor releif was brought to both parties when Rades brought Patri back.
Before she could leave with Patri, leaving clover for good she went with Yami and William to say her partings to what she thought would be her father's corpse but to find his new state was rather conflicting, but happy he was alive nonetheless. Telling her father the news.. and who the father of the child would be was bitter sweat before she kissed her goodbyes, leaving off with telling Lisa "Take care of Daddy for me while I'm gone, okay mom?'
________
At the current time of Canon Adderin would be 6//7 months pregnant. She lives with Patri in the new Village of the elves now stunted with fear of the dark triad
___________
Age 20, she welcomed a healthy baby boy with Patri. Settling on the name Flower, not telling him the name was from a Skunk from a fairy tale she loved as a child.

DuckTales Theory
So, I’m pretty sure you all know about the 1987 (Original) DuckTales, 1990 (Reboot) The Quack Pack and the 2017 (Reboot) DuckTales.
Well, I have a theory that connects all 3 together. Originally, this started with a theory about Gyro Gearloose, so here’s how all 3 connect.
ACT I: The Original
1987: Donald Duck joins the Navy thus leaving Huey, Dewey and Louie in the hands of Scrooge McDuck. 
Scrooge decides to hire some people to... Help around the house (Mrs. Beakley) Be a pilot (Launchpad McQuack) Count money (Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera) and be the Bin’s Security Guard (Gizmo Duck)
(The reason why Gyro and Duckworth aren’t listed is because I’m pretty sure they were already hired. Okay, back to the regularly scheduled theory.)
Mrs. Beakley brought her granddaughter; Webbigail to the mansion.  Webby always went unnoticed. She only made friends with animals because no one else pays attention.
ACT II: The Quack Pack!
1990: The boys were teenagers now, Donald left the Navy and Huey, Dewey, and Louie have moved in with their Uncle, who now has a girlfriend. Daisy Duck. 
Instead of Gyro, they have Dr. Ludwig Von Strangeduck. (Episode 1) With his newest invention they could become ‘T-Squad’ (just realized how much that sounds like T-Series) Also, their voices were probably higher cause of puberty.
[There’s nothing else to really go off of in Huey, Dewey and Louie’s lives other than their outfits. (We’ll come back to this.)]
Tumblr media
As for Webby, I’m going to assume that sometime around the first or second episode maybe? is when she started her spy training and Beakley was hired as an agent.
Gyro is currently on a well deserved vacation. Or did he just travel 26 years into the future? (We’ll come back to this.)
ACT III: The Reboot
2017: Now, there’s A LOT to go off of in the new series! So here we go.
Webby’s grown up. She’s now somewhere around 13, she’s basically a professional spy.
Huey, Dewey and Louie’s outfits have changed. I’m gonna say that Huey is 16, Dewey is 15 and Louie is 14, he’s still in that angsty teen era. 
Tumblr media
They’ve also forgotten about Scrooge because of all the adventures. Plus, teenagers wouldn’t really care about a rich uncle too much, would they? They just want a girlfriend...or three.
Duckworth is unfortunately dead, which is pretty clever. Donald and Daisy have unfortunately broken up and forgot about each other. Daisy was busy with her job and Donald is just living his best life. Or at least trying to... (We’ll get back to this.)
Scrooge has grown to like his nephews over time. --
[VILLAIN BREAK!] Ma Beagle: No longer wears her hair in a bun, wears makeup and changed her fashion up a bit.
The Beagle Boys: There’s more of them! [The Déjà Vu’s, The 5th Avenue Friendlies, The 5th Avenue Meanies, Black Arts Beagle, The Ugly Failures, etc.] Their home has downgraded to a Junkyard, they changed their shirts. Bouncer Beagle never skipped a day in the Beagle Gym.  Burger Beagle has S T I C K S for limbs.
The Aliens: They like rockets.
Magica De Spell: She has a niece now!  [VILLAIN BREAK: TO BE CONTINUED...]
--
ACT IV: Spies and Broken Hearts
Since Webby’s been in a mansion basically her whole life, she’s a sucker for adventures and magic! (We’ll get back to this.)
As for Della Duck - When she stole The Spear Of Selene in 1987, it was now her mission to get home. She made friends with an alien named Penumbra.
She finally got home, on Earth in maybe 2017 or 2018. Now we continue the love story of Donald and Daisy: In Season 3, Episode 5 - Louie’s Eleven, we see Daisy’s comeback.  Donald doesn’t recognize her, Daisy doesn’t recognize him. (I still ship it tho)
Tumblr media
Daisy was fired from her previous job - a news reporter - so now, who knows where she is in her life now. 
ACT V: Project B.O.Y.D.
Gyro hasn’t traveled 26 years into the future, he’s been on a well deserved vacation, he came back and made a new robot. 2-BO, or B.O.Y.D. A definitely real boy. Akita, however, did not like the idea of 2-BO being a ‘real boy’ so he overrode his programming.
Tumblr media
A few years later, Mark Beaks found ‘2-BO’ left in the trunk of Gyro’s car. While Gyro was in the store, looking for things to fix up B.O.Y.D,  Beaks thought that he could take B.O.Y.D and pretend he had a child so he could go to Doofus Drake’s birthday party. While B.O.Y.D was living with Doofus, Gyro decided to get a makeover.
--
[VILLAIN BREAK! PART 2]
Magica De Spell: She dyed her feathers!
Mark Beaks: That one kid who’s WAY ahead of his time and confuses everyone.
Flintheart Glomgold: Still wants to be richer! But he’s chubbier.
Goldie O’Gilt (Technically): She doesn’t have gray hair!
(just realized i did magica twice. oops.) [VILLAIN BREAK: TO BE CONTINUED...]
--
New Glasses / His old glasses were broken by B.O.Y.D due to a malfunction in the programming. New Shirt / The previous shirt he owned was not only uncomfortable, but was torn while testing B.O.Y.D for the first time. There was a malfunction, causing B.O.Y.D to attack Gyro. New Hat / The straps were uncomfortable. New Haircut / There’s no real reason for this other than he just wanted to change his style a bit.
ACT VI: Gizmoduck  Fenton had been working on Gizmoduck, improving the suit’s self defense system and stuff. Soon enough, Gizmoduck was everywhere! TV, the News, saving people! 
Also, Fenton’s skin/feathers changed because he probably got a sun-tan. 
Tumblr media
[VILLAIN BREAK! PART 3]
Waddleduck (Technically): Gizmoduck but he’s Mark Beaks.
Negaduck: He’s back and also has a double personality!
Magica’s Shadow: ...gone?
Tulpas: THEY ENVY THE POPULARITY THAT THE OTHERS HA-
[VILLAIN BREAK: THE END]
ACT VII: Lena De Spell 
Lena was created by Magica De Spell, you all know this. But how did she learn to do this? Well, in the 1987 series there was an episode in Season 1 named ‘Magica’s Shadow War’ it wasn’t a 2 part episode or anything special. But it was the first appearance the Magica’s ability to create shadows and make a shadow army. 
With this new knowledge, she took it upon herself to first, improve her old outfit and get a more modern look. Less trickery and bribery. She was gonna get that dime...but she needed a puppet. She couldn’t do it herself.
Before she knew it, she was in Scrooge’s dime. The thing she wanted most, she was now shown on... But before this, she performed the same spell from all those years ago... And brought her shadow to life, she swore that if she found a puppet, that shadow would be connected to them for as long as she’s in that dime.
What if I told you... Lena’s not a shadow. She was bribed into being Magica’s puppet. Even though she said ‘No more trickery or bribery’ she had to so she could convince Lena to be her new puppet. 
Whenever she wanted, she could come out and yell at Lena to get the dime so she’d be free. 
When she finally had the dime, I bet you’re wondering how she could be banished to the SHADOW realm if Lena’s not a shadow. Well, that’s just it... She wasn’t in the shadow realm. She was in Limbo. 
The realm between life and death.
Lena was able to help every so often... Thanks to Violet Sabrewing and Webby, she was freed.
ACT IX: The Quack Pack! (2017)
Season 3, Episode 2: The Quack Pack! This is a short one, but remember when I told you to remember their outfits from 1990? 
No? 
Good! ‘Cause I never did. :) I just said ‘...other than their outfits. (We’ll come back to this)’ 
So, the 1990s Quack Pack was slightly different. I mean the outfits. 1. Donald had a Hawaiian type shirt. 2. Louie’s shirt was different and had a hat. 3. Daisy existed.
But anyways, they brought the outfits back! 
ACT X: The End.
TL;DR: ACT 1: Scrooge hires a bunch of people and only cares about money. ACT 2: The nephews and Donald forgot Scrooge and Donald is dating Daisy. ACT 3: Huey is 16, Dewey is 15, and Louie is 14. Duckworth died ACT 4: Webby loves magic and adventure now, Della was stuck on the moon for 20 decades, Donald and Daisy broke up, Daisy was fired from her old job. ACT 5: Gyro invented BOYD and then BOYD was stolen by Mark Beaks. Also, Gyro got a makeover. ACT 6: Fenton improved his Gizmoduck suit. ACT 7: Lena isn’t a shadow, Magica learned how to bring her shadow to life and cursed Lena until she got the dime and then Lena was stuck in Limbo for a while. ACT 8: The Quack Pack made a comeback in Season 3. ACT 9: You’re reading ACT 9, why did I add this one?
Everything here is a theory. Not facts. And I can’t believe this all started with a little theory about Gyro’s change of style!
Just gonna say this now: I totally ship Fenton x Gyro. Don’t @ me.

Tagged by @connerluthorkent​ ! Thank you so much my dear!! <3 <3 
Pick 10 ships without reading the questions.
1) Nygmobblepot (Edward Nygma x Oswald Cobblepot - Gotham)
Tumblr media
2) Mergana (Merlin x Morgana - BBC’s Merlin)
Tumblr media
3) Handers (M!Hawke x Anders - Dragon Age 2)
Tumblr media
4) Korrasami (Korra x Asami - Legend of Korra)
Tumblr media
5) Chlodine (Chloe Frazer x Nadine Ross- Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Tumblr media
6) Midna x Link (Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess)
Tumblr media
7) Solas x Lavellan (Dragon Age: Inquisition)
Tumblr media
8) Hannigram (Hannibal Lector x Will Graham - Hannibal)
Tumblr media
9) Cassarric (Cassandra Pentaghast x Varric Tethras - Dragon Age)
Tumblr media
10)  MakoHaru (Makoto Tachibana x Haruka Nanase - Free! Iwatobi Swim Club)
Tumblr media
1. Do you remember the episode/scene/chapter that you first started shipping 6?
Oh man...that was soooooo long ago.  I played Twilight Princess for the first time when I was about 12 I think, so Midna x Link is the oldest ship on here. But I think I started shipping it after the first third of the game when Midna tries to protect you and nearly sacrifices her life because of it. You get this section where you have to sprint back for help as a wolf with her on your back in the rain as she’s dying and “Midna’s Lament” plays in the back and it was the first time I really felt myself get so worried for a video game character. And after that, she’s a lot more caring towards Link and you can see them grow closer and closer as the game progresses.
2. Have you ever read a FanFiction about 2?
Merlin x Morgana was the reason I started writing fanfiction actually <3 And I have read quite a lot! 
3. Has a picture of 4 ever been your screen saver/profile picture/tumblr?
They have not actually!
4. If 7 were to suddenly break-up today, what would your reaction be?
OUCH™. This question came for my life a lil bit. Ow :(
*SPOILERS* But Solas does fucking break up with you in the game regardless of what you do and we’re basically doomed to face our lover and try to stop him before he destroys the world in the next game. That route/relationship is known as Solavellan Hell. Worst/best? part is that he still loves you and you him. But as for my reaction? Despite knowing it was going to happen somehow, I still sobbed and felt like I’d gotten broken up with in real life. BioWare really knows how to hurt us.
5. Why is 1 so important?
Strap in. I’ve only been into Nygmobblepot for almost exactly a year at this point and I can’t remember being *this* attached to a ship like this for a long time. Part of why it lingers in my mind is because there’s still that slight feeling of disappointment that they were so close to being explicitly canon on screen but homophobia got in the way, and yet they really are still canon in all but sharing a kiss and explicitly stating their mutual romantic intent. These two have checked off almost every box in regards to tropes because they went from strangers to friends to almost lovers to enemies to tentative allies back to friends with their mutual feelings being pretty transparent under the surface. There’s so much to play with in regards to story because you can have your pick of dynamics depending what season it’s set in and the creators in this fandom are next-level. They’re two people that are continuously ostracized from everyone around them and they consider each other their best friend, something neither of which has had before. They’re weird and pretty nasty people, but somehow are canonly so Soft™ when they’re around each other (unless they’re enemies and then helloooooo sexual tension). Both have said in so many words ‘I love you’ to the other and have been beaten, tortured, and thrown their lives on the line to protect the other. They’re stylish evil villains in love with an adorable height difference and their incredible chemistry really makes it impossible not to root for them.
6. Is 9 a funny ship or a serious ship?
Funny! They do have serious moments, but since they are both companions (and don’t have an *actual* side romance) they’re mostly there for humorous banter when you have them both around.
7. Out of all of the ships listed, which ship has the most chemistry?
That is really hard. I feel like it might be a tie between both sets of Murder Husbands: Nygmobblepot and Hannigram.
8. Out of all of your ships listed, which ship has the strongest bond?
Again, I think I might say Nygmobblepot and Hannigram.
9. How many times have you read/watched 8’s fandom?
Twice! I watched the show as it aired and then I rewatched it when my best friend was getting into it!
10. Which ship has lasted the longest?
MakoHaru! They’ve been best friends since childhood <3
11. How many times, if ever, has 2 broken up? 
Damn all the painful questions keep coming for the doomed ships. So, Merlin and Morgana have never officially been together EVEN THOUGH THE WRITERS GAVE US THIS WHOLE THING ABOUT HOW THEY WERE EACH OTHER’S *DESTINY* AND DOOM and yadda yada. But while Merthur is the most popular ship in this fandom, I’ll always have a special place for Mergana because they  could have been something really special had the writers not made stupid decisions and had him not tell her about his magic. (this show in general makes me so bitter lmao) But they were really great friends in the beginning and him poisoning her would probably uhhh be the breakup and then it just got worse from there :(
12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive, 2 or 8?
Definitely 2 because they both have incredibly powerful magic. 
13. Did 5 ever have to hide their relationship for any reason?
They are in the early stages of their partnership ;) The game takes place over the course of 24 hours so they aren’t quite there yet, but I doubt they’d hide it once they did get together. 
14. Is 4 still together?
Yes they are!!! And I have all their graphic novels thus far to keep getting all of that good Korrasami content <3 
15. Is 3 canon?
Yes it is, in my world state at least. They broke up for about half a year after the events of the second game but have been together ever since and Hawke gets to talk about his bae when you meet him in the third game ^_^ 
16. If all 10 ships were put into a couple’s Hunger Games, which couple would win?
Uhhhhhhh there’s like 3 people in this list that are ‘the most powerful magical being in their universe’ so. It’d be down to Merlin/Morgana, Korra/Asami, and Lavellan/Solas. I feel like due to the fact that neither favor underhanded means typically, Korra/Asami would be out. But Merlin, Morgana, and Solas are real bastards so it might be down to raw power mixed with what sabotage is laid out. 
17. Has anybody ever tried to sabotage 10’s ship?
Not really, everyone in universe kinda knows they’re a thing. 
18. Which ship would you defend to the death and beyond?
This is like my fourth tie but it’s gonna be between Nygmobblepot and Mergana. Nygmobs because they’re meant for each and have said so. And I’m currently obsessed. Mergana because it was one of my very first ships and even if it still ended tragically, I’ll always mourn the boatloads of potential they had for some really intriguing stuff between the two of them and never touched any of it.
19. Do you spend hours a day going through 1’s tumblr page?
Thankfully I’ve calmed from when I first got into it but I generally have a daily check on here and AO3 <3 
20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the ten ships to break up forever or else she´d break them all forever, which ship would you sink?
Well since Mergana is DEFINITELY broken up forever, I’ll pick that one. 
This was SO FUN!!! Thank you so much again for tagging me!!! <3 <3 <3 Tagging @midnightanddiamonds​, @bisexualmoron​ @wicked-eyes-and-wicked-hearts​ @kessilover​ @jesscoot​ if you’d like to do it and anyone else who’d like to try!
