I do think it’s actually pretty interesting to think about how OFMD would read differently if Ed were a woman. But I don’t think Izzy is the one who would come out looking worse—if anything, his overprotectiveness and concerns about Ed looking weak on a ship full of pirates might come off as MORE justified. And with Blackbeard’s legacy then being something more unique, Izzy’s fear of Ed giving that up to play housewife might at least be more understandable.
But *Stede* would look like a total asshole. Abandoning his wife and kids because he’s gay and he never wanted that kind of life is sympathetic. Just going off to cheat with a newer, more exciting woman absolutely is NOT. And Stede’s pattern of ignoring his partners’ preferences and doing what he thinks is best would come off as misogyny instead of general obliviousness.

Hey do you think Jamil has trouble seeing people his age as peers?
Like, growing up having to be a caretaker to a guy literally a few months older than him, always expected to act like the adult in the situation, expected to work with adults and adopt their perspectives and pick up their slack. Do you think he just, forgets sometimes?
I mean we've seen him go into caretaker mode with other sophomores, and the only people I've seen him take seriously are juniors like Vil who also act much older than they should have to (his reactions to Leona look more like a trauma response and I don't wanna get into it here). People like Malleus and Cater still somewhat get the caretaker treatment. Like I just highly doubt that he subconsciously realizes he's actually part of his age group
Aaand that inevitably brings up Azul, who also acts like he thinks he's older than he is. Whether you're looking at it from a shipping angle or not, he reacts to Azul like an actual peer. With older students, he seems more in his element but there's still a status hierarchy which he compulsively reacts to. With Azul he doesn't acknowledge any status worth respecting or see him as someone who needs to be looked after. He just bickers like an equal, in a way that implies he actually does see Azul as a real peer, like subconsciously he's categorized this guy into the same group as himself, who was previously alone on that level (he gets like this more with the twins too, over time, but it seems to start with Azul).
And my favorite part about this is, while that response stems from them both acting more like adults in general, they elicit a pettiness from each other which drags them both down to actually acting their own age, and I just love that. Their characters are perfect foils for each other and it seems to make them both less isolated in a way.

Still remember how people on mixels discord server mentioned how either major nixel or king nixel would be the sexy man or something. I also thought that maybe flain would be one too considering the fact that I think he's often the most shipped character with OCs or something and how I used to have a crush on him as a child.

Why do i suddenly imagen that flower can sort of tune out their dad..every other Siblings is like "dad! stfu!!"
ODBDJD Honestly it'd make sense, after they made up Flower was very active in the political part of being a princess and eventually accepted the role of an heir, they probably would travel with their parents for any political meetings and such outside Hallownest and eventually learned to tune that engine of a man out
Their siblings have. Less of a built tolerance for his snoring

To get rid of the Doodler, they needed to be radical. Code Purple was that radical plan, and it had worked. For a while. It just needed to work again. Which it would.
Lark was convinced that it would.
You’re either with us or against us, Nicky.
Welp. Guess that by that infallible logic, I’m against you. Sorry, guys.
Lark was sorry, too.
But feeling sorry had never been too big of an issue for him.
Or: Lark and Nick spend one last night together before shit hits the fan.

Yo! I think the Endless Possibility -> Endless Possibilities comes from one of the most earliest lyric videos on YouTube which misnamed the song, it has like 3M views. Funnily enough that it doesn't get the chorus wrong, which I've heard people sing wrong, so it's only the title that's wrong.
yeah i definitely think that misnamed videos with a lot of views are at least partially responsible. since the song didn't have any sort of official release for a long time so people couldnt just . see the official uploads and know the titles on those other ones were wrong

You see that theory going around on Twitter about Gregory being innocent in the main ending?
@/TheJ_Pro on there has a pretty detailed thread about it if you haven't heard it.
YEAHYEAHYEAHYEAHYEAH I SAW!! MY SON!!! MY SON IS INNOCENT!!!!
Honestly I think he's valid in his actions whether he did it or not considering the situation he was in at that moment- but after hearing the evidence of him not doing it, even outside of that thread, I'm definitely leaning more on the side that it wasn't him.

so i had a couple ocs as a kid (made for a story that i never wrote a lot for) and i haven’t drawn any of them since i was like. 14. so it’s been a hot minute but anyway i realized the other day that out of the 5 main cast i have gotten 3 of their haircuts. i remember vaguely thinking that one character always seemed to have the haircut i wanted and i had that haircut for years but recently i got rid of that haircut and had another one’s haircut then i changed it a bit and dyed it and now i have another one’s. so i’m like man 12 year old me had great taste in haircuts. i should go down the list and do them all

emry how do you decide what do you post on intagram and here? i want to comment and go insane over things but i only have my personal ig 😅😅
Uh oh uhhhhh I don’t really have a method? 😅 i try to post most things on both at some point or another, it’s just going to be a whole different beast putting the royal au stuff over there because it’s such a different format, and the kind of posting I’ve been doing for the au requires a long form posting ability that insta just can’t do well. It isn’t a blog like over here on tumblr 🤷
I’ll probably forget to cross post things - between my discord, insta, and tumblr, it gets confusing to my little goldfish brain when I have a lot of content at once that I’m putting in different places at different times. If I remember, the biggest thing that’s on insta and not here atm is the little beach chibis, but I do plan to have them here very soon!
I hope that was your question anyway, and if I misunderstood please come back and correct me lol but yeah most of the questions about my confusing social media habits can be boiled down to 1) I refuse (read: am mentally unable) to bow to any other social’s algorithm and 2) I have adhd memory and serotonin seeking 😂 thank you so much for wanting to comment and yell about my stuff though, it’s actually literally the highlight of my days!! 💕

me and my sister went to the mall today and we ran into hot topic so fucking fast it was unbelievable. me and my sister are literal opposites when it comes to fashion. she picked pink, pastel shit like she was trying to be all uwu kawaii meanwhile im just standing here with my arms full of emo and goth shit, i legit felt like daigo and masato with all this emo drip i had walked out with. (p.s. they should put yakuza stuff in hot topic if they havent already because i have yet to have any yakuza related things in my room </3 also hot topic is like the only store i will shop at)
im so sorry to say these words to you but reading this reminded me of my immortal

Did Leslie really freak people out much? I liked her. The room and the way she spoke, yelling aside, and just. The whole scene. Felt like it had a sense of comfort, warmth, safety to it. I would've stayed there even after being yelled at lol
But no, it didn't come off as sinister or creepy like some people I've noticed seem to see it as. She didn't want to stay in a creepy room I assume, if anything she reminded me of a non-fandom oc I have who is basically a goddess who watches over people and shakes things up in whatever way she thinks would be most entertaining, basically how a self-insert of my writing prefrences would look lmao, everyone is her puppets and she is the puppet master. Why would the puppet master want the danger to come to THEM? That's her toys job, even for her favorites (especially for her favorites lol)
Basically she comes off as the writer fell into their story so they wrote themself a safe space to keep the story going and themself alive or something sorry I went on a tangent lol

i love the bookworm app bceause the global timeline gives me a really good picture of what people in general are reading but on the flipside i am discovering the worst books in the world e.g. some hack has written a good girl florist/bad boy tattoo artist romance novel, thus combining literally genuinely all my least favourite tropes in the world, good luck and godspeed to anyone who reads that shit but the florist/tattoo artist thing seeped into fandom almost a decade ago like slime from the sewers and i have an ugly little chamber of my heart reserved just for the seething hatred it engenders in me. my kneejerk reaction against anything that becomes popular for no apparent reason the gendering of "women like flowers and men like tattoos" the utterly simplistic interpretation of opposites attract the idea that flowers and tattoos are somehow fucking opposite despite literally every bisexual i know having at MINIMUM two flower tattoos... repugnant to me
