"you're not a monster, my dear boy. you did what you had to do."
ah yes - so nice of me to put Khalan through Repeat Trauma by forcing him to fight back against an undead version of someone he loves all over again 🫠 can't help it though. I crave the angst ><;;;

Hi! New OP fan here! Do you mind if I ask a genuine question?
What the hell is up with Nami?
Not only she's adopted but also she has no connection to her birth family because the one that actually found her was a little girl who just decided to pick up this random baby. Why does she have a backstory so disconnected from her family? Is this something that was ever addressed?
She's disconnected because from context there was a war with pirates in the town where nojiko and nami were at, we know nojiko's family is dead but we don't know about nami's since nojiko saw her all alone and took her with her (assuming most were dead in this town, whoever was taking care of nami was probably gone by this point)
we never find out who her family is (but apparently oda did want to make a movie about it at some point, but then didn't?)
i wouldn't mind if there was more to her background but i'm completely fine with there not. Nojiko just didn't want to leave Nami all alone, and Belle-mere couldn't leave either of them alone so they made their family together and that's all they needed
you'll see that one of the biggest themes in one piece, is found family! nami's whole situation is just the beginning

Hi Lexi
What do you think of partially blinded Vi? You never seem to draw her that way, and I kind of just wanted to know what do you think of it as a certified Vi lover.
I personally think that while something like this can be "cool" (as in, being beneficial to the character design), it's handled quite poor for Vi and it just looks a bit... ungrateful. Simply doesn't look good, doesn't fit her personality or character (am I missing something?) and it doesn't seem to fit or suit her...unlike Kenny's iconic eyepatch. To me, it has become a pivotal thing in his design to a degree in which Kenny with both eyes seems a bit odd looking. I see it as a symbol which stands for Ken being a martyr and all he's lost and sacrificed. He is all about family and helping those he loved, his loved ones truly were the "apple of his eye". It all makes sense, doesn't it?
But for Vi, it's excatly the opposite. I'm just so sorry to see her like this. 😭😭😭 I don't think it makes sense in any way. Louis losing his tongue because he's so talkative and "won't shut up" does kind of make sense, but I cant help but see Violet losing sight as kind of lazy writing. "We need something bad happening to her!!! suffer the children!!!'- the writers exclaimed.
i think vi losing her eyesight is incredibly impactful on her character and i honestly dont understand why some people say its lazy writing. especially since it was foreshadowed multiple times. vi losing her eyesight i think is even more impactful on her character than louis losing his tongue because at least louis still has his music to express himself and uplift spirits through (and its not like he cant communicate At All. his note still makes clem laugh). the reason i dont draw blind vi very often is because of how sad it is to me. for multiple reasons
violets whole thing is wanting to be able to protect the people she cares about, and feels immense grief and guilt about the times she feels shes failed them (thinks if she had been there with the twins that day that she couldve done something to save them. feels she failed everyone taken by the raiders. is scared of failing clem too "if something happened to you because of me? i cant lose you too. i wont". its why she cant leave minnie after shooting her. and a kidnapped vi attacks clem because she doesnt want anyone else to get hurt. hell it even ties back to her grandma and feeling guilty about not doing anything for her)
so for her to lose her eyesight? she took pride in her ability to fight and now she cant do that anymore. cant protect the people she loves. and as someone who started the season as an isolated loner, it forces her to rely on those around her for help, stripping her of her independence (and her independence is what allowed her to stand up against the group for clem when it came to the marlon situation in ep2). a blinded vi is forced into accepting community, whereas a saved violet accepts it on her own. her and clem turn ericsons into the home violet could never see it as
the other reason blind vi makes me so sad is that it is Directly a result of clems actions. kidnapped vi had nothing and wanted nothing to do with the bomb, and yet shes the ONLY ONE who gets hurt by it. clem choosing to let vi be taken means clem both breaks her heart, and then burns out her eyes. louis and his tongue is between him and lilly and was a choice THEY each made outside of clems direct influence (even if it was clem who inspired him to speak up, it is ultimately his choice to keep talking, and lilly hurts him for it. its sad he gets punished for a character moment, but clem had no direct hand in him losing his tongue. its why hes not angry to see her in the cell. he doesnt blame clem for what happened), but the way vi is feeling in that cell is DIRECTLY due to clems actions. vi feels like clem abandoned her after she had put herself on the line for her multiple times. she always had clems back but clem didnt have hers. clem is the one who planted the bomb and vi gets caught in the blast. clem hurts her emotionally And physically. and vi apologizes for getting upset (she tries to apologize on the beach too before theyre forced out in the cart, so she felt wrong for those actions immediately even tho they were understandable. lilly and minnie used her moment of weakness to get in her head. she just wanted everyone to be safe)
kidnapped blinded vi is just so incredibly sad to me, especially when you compare her to a fully realized violet. a violet who has come into herself, has confidence, has opened up, has stopped pushing people away out of fear and lets herself love again. shes a leader. a fighter. a protector. and those are all things a blinded violet loses
neither vi losing her eyes or louis losing his tongue is supposed to add anything to their characters. its about what theyve lost. both of them have important parts of their identity stripped away from them after being taken by the delta. its supposed to be sad. heartbreaking. regrettable. unfortunate. they have not gained anything by their time at the delta, only lost important parts of themselves to it

vulture update: so many that apparently multiple people called the police, who showed up and proceeded to say "yup it's a dead dear, that's a lot of vultures, maybe try animal control? good luck" and then left. so that was cool.

(Based on a recent interaction between me, my two sisters, and my biological dad)
Bruce, Jason, and Dick sitting calmly in the living room doing their own thing:
Dick, getting up and disappearing upstairs: hm.
Damian, coming downstairs with his art supplies and sitting down across from Jason: hello. I'm using the table now, Todd move your feet.
Dick, pouting as he comes to stand at the top of the stairs: I want a refund.
Jason, looking up from his phone: what for?
Dick: I went up there, sat on Damian's bed and said "I'm sad, love me" and this bitch gets up and comes in here. My little brother's compassion is broken and I want a new one.
Bruce, snorting and nearly spitting out his coffee: Damian, you know Dick gets clingy.
Damian, looking at Bruce with a completely blank face: Richard's emotional distress isn't my problem, father.
Jason, cackling like a hyena: and here I thought today would be boring-

TW: vent and swearing
So last night I was grabbing an offering of Egg Nog for Loki. As you do, we have loads left over from Christmas and no one has been drinking it. So thinking nothing of it know j can trust my mum, I grab two glasses so me and Loki can drink together and as I'm about to pour the first glass my mum looks at me and says "You're not wasting that on your imaginary friend again are you". (I would just like to say she knows I give offerings to Loki and she knows I'm a witch. So this was not out of ignorance). The amount of fury that flooded my body in that single moment should have made me explode. I kid you not it was so fierce I couldn't even fathom it in words at the time. And the worst part of it all was I didn't even stand up for myself, or my god. And I'm ashamed of that. But I was so angry I didn't think I could talk to her without wanting to chew her the fuck out. Like did she not realise how invalidating that was to me? Clearly not otherwise she wouldn't have said it. (this next statement is not directed at Christianity it is merely a statement out of frustration and retaliation) How would she have liked it if I told her that God was collective amnesia of her generation. She wouldn't like it very much. And the nonchalant tone in which she said it was if I was making all of this up in my head. Why does the big guy in the sky seem plausible but anything else doesn't.
There are so many problems with this whole situation but I'll boil it down to this. 1) This whole thing was completely invalidating
2) her apologie was hardly genuine more like the way you apologise because you know you have to but you don't actually understand why you are in the wrong
3) she was mad at me for not talking to her.
In the end I just ended up pouring only one cup and giving it to Loki. His candle is burning currently and I'm still angry and upset. This morning she acted like nothings really happened.
And from here on out I'm never trusting my family with important personal information of mine.

You don't understand how unhinged I feel trying to construct an ending for Bleach that I personally would enjoy while knowing Bleach does not deserve my time and also not remembering enough to actually make anything coherent. And yet here I am.
#god. no one gives a fuck abt bleaching. i am screaming into the void. y cant i put this energy into being productive#i just want there to be themes and a satisfying ending. and ending that is sad and yet happy#i just think. for me. ichigo kurosaki died on the night rukia pierced him with her zanpakto. oh fuck i cant spell. fucking strap in#i kno he didnt technically die according to the rules of the universe but i think as soon as ichigos soul left his body. that body became#a corpse. so when he goes back into it its not suitible to live in anymore and he only starts to feel that with the fullbring arc#i think when rukia jumpstarted his powers she lit the fuse of a bomb and becoming a visor allowed him to chanel his resentment#bc he does resent. ichigo is an emotional person. he felt emense guilt when his mothet died bc he felt he couldnt protect her bc he was#being raised to protect. the boy has a complex and its kinda fuckrd up and its 1000% isshins fault. so when thr opportunity comes for#ichigo to sacrifice himself for his family he does and he literally and metaphorically dies. his life from that point on is overtaken by#death. so what do we do with ichigo after everything is said and done bc he cant go back to being human he cant be a living corpse. he has#to go to the soul society. bc i like to imagine everything hes done to his soul. his twisted cosmically weird special boy soul. hes like a#bomb. its unstable and they need to teach him to control it so he doesnt tear a hole in reality and let thr hollows pour in. so its safer#if that happens in thr soul society. and rukia lil miss ice princess can teach him to do that. i would also make it weird with god stuff but#i never read the blood war stuff so i dont kno enough abt the gods. also i would make rukia more at odds with everyone who was gonna let her#fucking die and who overlooked her bc she should b held with more reguard for her fighting. but misogyny 😒 so then what do we do with#ichigo in thr soul society? i cant stand the idea of him becoming part of the institution. i cant. i think he should be rogue. rebell. idk#train to be strong and battle agaisnt the 13 court guard squad who r clearly going to try to control him as he tries to control himself.#send my boy to therapy so he can control his reatsu? is the the word? idk. maybe he should go to that dead dog district and look for kids#with spiritual pressure. he needs to feel useful. maybe id just give him weird god powers. i am an ichigo special boy apologist#thats as far forward as i can think. ichigo has to b dead. has to learn to control his power before he can go fight. rukia can teach him#he rebells against the institution. encourages rukia to go apeshit bc fuck everyone. and then idk. he keeps trying to save ppl forever#or he dies and destroys the universe. a big ball of resentment and bad feels and secrets upon secrets upon secrets. god y am i thinking#abt this so much. ive got bullshit to deal with. anyway. idk i just like ichigo a lot and i think thr ending to bleach is th worst forever#bleach ramblings

ALSO I was overthinking and end up cooking so here, have a tier list of Thesa's level of romancability for the xiv man
Tumblr media
#if u are wondering abt the girls its lyna under “another life” because of my npc au (they canon there me thinks)#and also ysayle under “in a thancredless world” I think !!#plus the typical hot woman under “she kinda..” tier like lyse and hilda but thats it! every body else is friend material#there's distinction on zenos' btw like him in ew seems possible in a another life... u know those “zenos lives” au were he gets domesticated#the stormblood version of him is pure hatred for her. no thoughts. only blood. also the endwalker version I mean like REALLY#the ending one. the one that helps you out. after the characters development. the in from the cold one is also no thoughts only blood !#the other of “in anothr life” are pretty self explanatory i think lol like LITERALLY in her other life !#the “he kinda...” tier is like crush almost tier. the MIGHT have flirted ONCE (usually unconscious of her part) but the thought was there#but its the kinda of “wow attractive man. anyway back to business” kinda of crush. not even a day long lol#best friends are SOMEWHAT in order but not really. estinien is her bestest of friends and sidurgu is close second.#ardbert is like platonic soulmate to the extreme. hes the best mix of sidurgu and estinien for her. they tease a lot but understand#esch othr like no one else can so yeah ! them !#family tier consists of the ones she consider family + the ones her closest friends consider family + dragon fam#asahi can just die. also seemed mean to put magnai there so he doesnt go anywhere because YEAH he isnt friend either#OH I forgot the “canon” ones lol Haurchefant almost happened in the sense of “it would if it wasn't for her”#the moment wasn't the best and I can picture her blatantly saying “no sorry” to him once in the idea of “when i get better than maybe”#she loved him dearly just not like that at that point . not yet maybe. it hunts her forever if u are wondering :)#instead of taking lessons for “dont waste time for love” she goes on the opposite way with thancred lol#they only allow themselves to be together like after the scions are back from first in 5.3 :) baby girl is LOST#but at this point they know theh love each other its just.... love is hard. but once the scions go back home after returning#she gets back from meting g'raha and thancred is waiting her by himself on the waking sands like “we have matters to settle”#i loooove writing them as this deep in love but independent couple. they are soooo fran/balthier and roy/riza coded. can anyone hear me#in a thancredless world is KINDA hard to explain. im not sure abt emet there. I like the emetwol paring so bad#but she would have to be changed like fundamentally to get with him in shb !! only because only by the end of 5.0 that#she starts to really get him so there wouldn't be any time. im a thancredless world ofc.#themis and g'raha on the other hand are ABSOLUTELY FAVES on wolships for her. like genuinely they WOULD be a thing in a thancredless world#the maybe is there for emet and MAYBE for the exarch as well but man.... graha and themis are IT#thancred is canon instead of them because 1. his character is pretty much tailored to me lmao and 2. they are less... idk lovey dovey ??#i like the “i don't need you to live happily but gods I'm better and stronger with you” becaue it plays sl well with her independence. bbs.#wol posting

tbh dabi’s character just feels very tragic & sad but not in a pathetic way like in a way where you kind of cant help but feel for him his whole life he was ignored by everyone around him & anytime his family did pay attention to him mainly his parents they would just scold him or w/e. even now when they could come together & just try to be there for their brother/son they still scold & say awful things to him even as hes killing himself they’d rather he end it all than have to deal with the reality of the situation its giving very “oh we were fine until you showed up so can you like die fr this time so we can go back to ignoring you?” its like they liked him better when he was dead just my two cents
Yeah, no, I'm with you on this. It's very much like he's being treated as a problem more than anything else, and his victimhood is basically never recognized. Even the other two of the main trio are treated with more sympathy than Touya's own family is giving to him, and that's his family.
It's just been one disappointing thing after another with Dabi's character and how he's being handled. A lot of us expected the League to have a strong reaction to the reveal, they did not. They literally brushed him off. (i remember those amazing fics, arts, and comics, can those be canon instead?) We expected something to come out of his broadcast, nothing did. Enji faced no consequences and Dabi got shamed for "airing out family's dirty laundry." We expected a heartfelt reunion with the todofam, where they expressed that he was wanted and loved. And now they're yelling at him. This entire subplot since the reveal seems to be geared towards blaming all of the family's problems on Touya/Dabi from day one. It's just been one thing after another, i love that Dabi gets screen time and all but omg how much of that screen times gonna be dedicated to fucking him?
