#forsaking all others

[ruporas]

i’ll find you again in every universe. let us be a little more honest, let us have a little more time.

#vashwood #vash the stampede #nicholas d wolfwood #trigun #despite it all though badlands rumble is like. the only universe where we get wolfwood thinking vash died first... and i think that means a #lot to their relationship and how it may bloom if there was more to badlands rumble considering vash literally saw wolfwood carrying a piece #of vash after his supposed death. u know! despite the short time they were together vash still meant so much to wolfwood that he couldn't #just move on or forget him in anyway. needed to keep a piece of him for himself and the rest of his days. but ofc vash lives and wolfwood #was like ill beat ur fucking ass into tomorrow. there's just so much honesty in vash being able to see that gesture bc he wouldnt know #otherwise just how much he might mean to him. ANYWAY. trimax with with the eternal pining featuring the two chapters where imo #where the both of them really fell for each other... i wrote my thoughts about this on another comic i did before #but vash solidifying his feelings during the hospital arc -- ww solidifies his when he realizes his allegiances are permanently with vash #98 my lovelies but also to me they are so one-sided bc ww pined like no tomorrow and vash only realizes after ep 23?24? his heart did tickle #whenever ww complimented his smile though #and tristamp vw my beloveds. it really just feels like they get the chance to be closer and closer and more honest with each other #with every version that comes about. in trimax they knew how little time they had but struggled so desperately to get closer. in 98 ww felt #more willing to forsake for vash. in badlands rumble theyre Angry but as mentioned earlier ^ more blatant truth... due to circumstances #mainly but has the chance to lead to discussions and tristamp literally. first day of knowing each other ww saves vash - 2 days later vash #saves ww like. Man. AND NOW THEY MAY POTENTIALLY GET EVEN CLOSER!!!! with s2.... #ruporas art

Aziraphale “I will bear the loss of the world’s delights to prevent it from being destroyed so that crowley can live freely in it” VERSUS Crowley “I will carve out a place for aziraphale in this universe and defend it with my life so that he will be safe” FIGHT!!!

#they literally just want each other to be safe #that’s it #that’s why they do the things they do #when crowley talks about Us he means If We’re Together I Know You’re Safe #Aziraphale says Us and means There Are No Guarantees So I Will Protect The Place Where My Love Lives and Forsake All My Joy to Preserve His #their definitions of safe are different but their love is not #good omens #good omens 2 #crowley #aziraphale #azicrow

[always-a-joyful-note]

I...can't even begin to explain how much I love Han Sooyoung, Yoo Joonghyuk, and Kim Dokja's trio dynamic. I love all the relationship between KimCom but...just...

I guess KimCom is definitely a found family. It's so meaningful and heart-rending how all their dynamics work, how Dokja really acts like a dad to the kids, the sibling-like relationships between Jihye and Yoosung and Gilyoung, the camaraderie between the adults. Joonghyuk's status as the crabby uncle or something who usually does his own thing but gets dragged into family dinners, etc. etc. etc....

But those three. Author, reader, protagonist. They're...they're friends. Like, I called them siblings at first but I came to decide that they're friends. A trio of similar, emotionally constipated people who would literally die for each other while denying their closeness...they're really and seriously not family or lovers or allies but just...on their way to being best friends. And I don't really know why I get those vibes but I'll just let it end me because it's a rare moment in fiction when I see three (not just two) individuals be allowed to be best friends with each other in such an equally valuable way....

#spoilers for up to ch 387 on post and tags #but anyway #its the way they insult each other mercilessly but would literally forsake everything and die for the other #it's how easily they insult and converse with and understand each other #how they all have the moral compass of swivel chair with knives duct taped to it but still manage to result in something good #and also again how they're so emotionally constipated for real.... #and the banter between the three is PEAK...whether its just between two of them or all three #also dont get on my case if something ends up being romantic or anything im blind to that stuff #no literally....i had absolutely zero clue that heewon and hyunsung were supposed to be romantic..... #and i SEE it now but i literally thought they were pure friendship beans who probably got shipped by the fandom #but no im just dumb and theyre actually a ship #but yeah....han kim and yoo...their dynamic is everything and i fear that they'll only get worse #35% more to go yay... #fandom spamdom #disclaimer tag and a slight hope that im not terribly off the mark #(seriously i know a few spoilers and the way the fandom perceives the relationship dynamics but im still going into this pretty blind) #orv #omniscient reader's viewpoint #note's nonsense #orv spoilers

[waddingham]

do you ever see a post

#i literally track only one single tag on this webbed site and im about to leave it behind with all the others #forsaking anything that my beloved and trusted mutuals haven't deigned to put in front of me.

[christensen]

I'm so pissed off, i just saw someone on twitter calling out Snow fangirls and naming people stanning characters like him ("hot" but evil) "the anakin effect" as if liking anakin has been a mainstream phenomenon for longer than a month.

#like im sorry but liking the prequels at all and anakin in particular has always been SO niche #im gatekeeping him if you haven't been a star wars fan since at least 2014 you can't stan the prequels OR anakin :/ #like on the one hand its great that thanks to nostalgia and ahsoka (tv) hayden is getting his due but like. look at the COST #ania speaks #txt #i've had this blog for like 6 years and this url for idfk almost that long #and i literally used to get asks from people who reblogged from me (a star wars blogger (and sometimes some other things) through it all) #asking me what i was referencing #hell some girl once asked me if i was using her last name as an url for some reason (???) #like you just cant make it up. #the anakin effect my ass thats just YA!!!!! tbosas is YA!! ya fans are EXPERTS at woobifying terrible men #anakin isnt one you stan because you want to fix him (if you do. you're very weird tbh) #you stan anakin bc of the TRAGEDY. the CORRUPTION. the forsaking of everything in the name of power. #anyway today i went to see tbosas with a friend i've known for years and she acknowledged that i've been on the trenches #for him + the prequels in general since f o r e v e r it was so vindicating

[fratricideknight]

oh no i'm growing more violent and vengeful with each passing day

#i'm being serious btw. i'm usually (and still am) all like: peace is the answer if at all attainable. + #everyone should be redeemed if plausible. who are you to take someone's life? i love everyone and won't forsake some for others. etc. etc. #but i am currently plagued by many thoughts of violent murder #about me #mine #cw oversharing

...why is the one episode when they're in the most Real Direct Actual conflict the one where they're actually the kindest and most gentle with each other. why can't they be like this when William isn't courting someone else???

#hi this post was written by me sometime whilst watching the last couple of episodes of Miss Scarlet and the Duke s3 #those last two episodes... really were something??? #I think I liked s3 more than s2 tbh #there was Definitely more Character Development #and I'm so intrigued to see where s4 picks up!!! what will she do about Mr. Nash's offer?! I truly cannot make any predictions!!! #also are we supposed to expect not to see anymore of Moses or Mr. Nash in the next season? since they're going to be off in Paris? #I really do hope not... I love Moses and Mr. Nash has grown on me so much since we first 'met' him... #I'm really invested in Nash's character development in particular and I'm loving watching his and Eliza's relationship play out #and then where the season left William... poor guy... he's really stuck between a rock and a hard place huh? #I don't buy into the idea that he needs to drop his own dreams and just accept Eliza's aspirations in turn for his own #because just as she wants to become a respected and sought-after private detective because of the influence of her father #and the lack of respect and friendship she faced as a child #I think William also craves love and a home and a family because he was largely denied that in his own childhood #imho it's not fair to say that he should just give up all his own desires bc they seem overly conventional in comparison to Eliza's #sure he can't expect her to forsake all her dreams. but we as an audience can't expect him to forsake all of his #(and Eliza shouldn't either) #each of them are going to have to do some self-examination and reconsider their own dreams and desires #*including* the place they want to hold in the other's life #if they're ever going to get anywhere together #but I mean. I still do feel for him. #yeah ok I think that's all my thoughts on the finale XD #I kept meaning to make an actual post about it but I can't seem to pull my thoughts together enough to be worth that #so you get this monster tag-ramble instead dkjhfkjsdh #gurt says stuff #miss scarlet and the duke

Do the other champion know that Cynthia is sharing a body with Satan himself? Or is that just a lil secret she has?

Also Iris and Hau have me laughing when I think about them in the villain champion AU. Cause like they’re evil, but they’re also teenagers. Like Iris will wake up, get ready for the day, kill someone shitting on Hau’s name, and then go play some video games with her friends when she’s done champion stuff. These two will strike fear into people one minute then go fuck around with friends the next

One last question, how would the champions be exposed for what they’re doing? Or is it already known and people just stay out of their way

Ohh,, ghm yknow I do wanna say that only Diantha knows abt Cynthia sharing a body w Giratina, mainly bc I do have this concept that the first champion meeting Cyn attended w Gira, Giratina sensed Yveltal w Diantha, and he's all "there's something about that human... Something familiar..."

"what do you mean?"

"Yveltal. That traitor."

And just jcmxnd ough yknow Dia and Cynthia by themselves at one of the summits maybe, the meeting just ended and hey maybe Gira, as Cynthia, asked for Diantha to stay a bit so they can talk, and ofc he's trying to sound like Cynthia, acting like he's also curious about the myths of Kalos, about the legendary Pokémon there

And imagine Diantha just giving him this smile, stands up from her seat and slowly approaches them, and Gira somewhat felt this icy cold fear when she came closer, pinning them to the wall, a hand on their neck, right at their pulse, "oh, darling," she softly says, hands on their cheek, thumb slowly guiding its way to their left eye, tracing over the scars, "do you honestly think you can fool me?" And she brushed away the hair hiding the left eye, revealing Giratina's eye, black vein like lines coming from the eye, "and do you honestly think you scare me?"

Gira growls at her, black tendrils emerging from their back, "you're merely human. I can kill you right now."

"so are you," she pressed on to the socket, her grip tight around their neck, and Gira can feel the pain, "so incredibly human. So incredibly fragile." She smiled at him, her eyes glowing bright, glowing like Yveltal's, "Cynthia won't let you do a thing, right, my darling?"

And while Gira's grip on Diantha's tightened, the tendrils began to disappear. Diantha nodded and leaned in, her grip loosened on their neck, "very good, Cynthia. You trained him well." And she finally lets go, giving one last look at them before she leaves, "oh, and Yveltal said it's nice seeing you again. He hopes there are no hard feelings, as he did what he had to do. Wouldn't you do the same?"

Cynthia and Giratina are left all alone, Cynthia's asking him a million fucking questions, and Giratina's there, wondering if Yveltal truly became powerful enough to have influenced that human, or perhaps there really was smth abt Diantha that just seemed... Powerful. Needless to say, Giratina insisted that she and Cynthia becomes close, if Diantha was that powerful to go up against a god, the God of the Distortion World no less, even without any Pokémon with her, then she'll be a valuable asset

And pfft yo fr tho the kids are vibing in the villain au hahaha like they legitimately killed a few people maybe Hau was still processing that bit, but Iris has a body count now man like fbdnn it's up there w Lance's body count it's insane, but then yknow she's like what, freshly 20 and her lil bro is just 15, ofc she's gonna be a bad influence in an actual sibling way too. Like they'd try to disobey Diantha and sleep till twelve just to play their games, and it's nice yknow bc even tho w all the shit going one, somehow they still found ways to be mundane w each other. The champions are all fucked up fr, but hey least they're fucked as a family—

Yknow w that tho since Cynthia is their enabler, imagine if these two also know about Gira and Cyn sharing a body. Imagine them at the rooftop of one of the leagues tho, trying to pull a prank from above, then shit happened and Iris and Hau are falling, and in her panic Cynthia used Gira's tendrils to catch them, pulling back up to the roof w her. Imagine Iris just "HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!"

"please don't tell the others but Giratina is kinda sharing my body so I kinda also have his powers too—"

"that's so cool!"

"...would I get powers too if I fuse with Kyurem—"

Ur honour they may be fucked up in the head but they still share one braincell and not even Gira is using it, he became an enabler too

Anyways w the last one,, I,, wanna say it's only Leon that was known, bc ofc he became somewhat of a tyrant in Galar, the same w Lance, how people know he actually has no trouble in downright killing someone who gets in his way, but the other champions?? I don't think they'd be exposed or anything bc they know how to hide things rather well, especially Diantha, and especially since she taught Iris and Hau how to mask their intentions. And like, yknow maybe the people of Galar and Kanto/Johto did call out for the other champions to try and help their own champions bc they're kinda terrified of them, and I want the others to be so reassuring to the people of Galar and Kanto/Johto that they will help Leon and Lance, that nothing bad will happen to them or to anyone, but really they just told Lance and Leon to be more discreet

And ofc, it worked, the people believed those lies, the people believed those fake smiles that Lance and Leon would give, and god the champions thought the people were so naive and pathetic, believing anything the most powerful trainers would tell them. But hey, guess that made things easier for em :)

#also yknow maybe #just maybe the others will find out abt gira and cyn sharing a body hahah #cause imagine cynthia saying 'the gods shall forsake thee' when someone eats her ice cream #and the others are all 'cynthia wont ever say that' 'yeah shed say fuck you' #i really love this au hahaha #like the concepts of it are cool hahah #theyre all a bunch of killers but theyre also ✨found family✨ #but also the ANGST #imagine the angst fndmnd #like the ones w family too imagine how their fams would react to all that shit yknow fnmdnd #villain champions au #pokemon champions #an ask and an answer #jerseyk112

Do you ever listen to someone speak and marvel at how smooth, free-flowing, and free of pauses it is?

Because I sure do. I can’t do that.

Maybe that’s why I feel like most people’s speech is insincere even when it isn’t… because it sounds like how I would recite or read a script. That explains why I view people who aren’t native English speakers, have a heavy accent, and take long pauses to think of the words they need to say as being more trustworthy… because my cadence is similar to theirs; and we both stumble over words.

#I feel like that little kid “If you ever had a dream where— you want— you wish— if you could— you want….” #I’m not that bad; but I come very close to sounding like that sometimes LOL #I feel like I spoke more smoothly as a little kid… #but that’s probably because my verbal communication is almost at the same level it was at when I was eight years old #Like those people who have a growth spurt but end up being on the short side as adults because they stop growing immediately after #I figuratively shot up to 5’0” in third grade and never grew past that point #(with regard to clarity and flow specifically; not vocabulary… my vocabulary has definitely grown a LOT #but that’s only because I get sick of writing or talking in the same way for longer than a year… which is why I currently sound #like a pretentious 20th century englishman whenever I write fiction) #I have no “real” vernacular because I don’t feel comfortable with having a personal vernacular… #because using the same patterns of words over and over again for the same situations counts as para-scripting and feels fake #(to me) #sometimes I hear someone use a new word I’ve never heard in conversation; and I say “Cool! I’ll use that word myself.” But I later realize #it’s not just a fun one-time usage of a word; but it’s a catchphrase they say all the time and forsake any common synonyms of the word #— I assume — solely for the purpose of sounding smart to others (their behavior usually justifies my assumption; because these people #act like they’re better than everyone else) #And sometimes I catch myself doing the same thing; and I switch to a different word or format than I’ve been using; out of nothing #but embarrassment and twisted perfectionism #Or sometimes I come off the high of using lofty words and want to speak in a more commonplace way #and after awhile of that I start thinking “Wait a minute wait a minute…. Now I’m just trying to sound cool and normal. #This isn’t how I talk.” #But the truth is I really feel spoken language is an insufficient medium for communication. #I want a language in which the speakers pry open each others’ chests #rip out each others’ hearts; and rub them together #But at the same time it kills me that I cannot do the same amount of tonal shapeshifting when speaking #especially when my default (socially-acceptable) speaking voice sounds extremely airheaded #I’ve been trying to use larger words and more archaic sentence structures in speech lately and it feels good #but also like I’m trying to show off (even though I’m not and that’s just how I’d prefer to speak) #even then… all my speech patterns are copied from somewhere #It’s been a years-long identity crisis and I want it to end

The best thing to come out of the mafia au in mhyk is the increase of fanarts where Cain looks threatening and is covered in blood. Like, yes pls drench him in blood some more, whether it's his or not I don't mind, he just deserves blood splattered all over him.

#aria rants #seeing fanarts of ppl drawing owen with a guandao is such a delight too. he looks sooo cool with a weapon taller than him #owen always gets deranged fanart as one whos always unhinged in canon but now... cain gets some too and im sooo happy #its my boy's turn to be deranged and threatening and visibly unhinged as he smile all while covered in blood in fanarts #thats what happens when hes sworn to snow and is practically surrounded with the northern wizards from canon #the north's token knight now turned dangerous right hand man of an even more dangerous person and the way that #despite all of that. its Still cain. all the most important and recognizable traits of his stayed. it rlly is just the difference #between having arthur as the liege and not. when its arthur. cain makes an effort to hide all the ugly parts of himself #so as not to disgrace his liege for showing faults in a way unbecoming of what he thinks a ''perfect knight'' is #a perfect knight should only have the interest of his liege in mind. a perfect knight should be ready to face death for his liege #but in the mafia au. he isnt a knight. hes sworn to snow. the leader of a dangerous mafia group. so thats what hes doing instead #to present himself befitting a member of a dangerous mafia gang esp when he has sworn absolute loyalty to the boss of it #so hes more threatening. less dignified in what a knight should present himself yet more deadly in the way a dangerous mafia #member should carry themself in a town where chaos is present in every corner. and ooohhhh i love him so much #cain knightley in every universe you are doomed to swear your life away towards another all while forsaking that role #to purpose someone else other than your liege. doomed to always be a knight wanting to be with a princess that fought the dragon herself
