The lack of self awareness of Grizznom shippers has always baffled me. Shippers that romanticize abuse and toxicity by denying it and sweeping it under the rug can already be unnerving enough but they go even beyond that. Like, they obviously don't care about Grizz at all. They just see him a tool to make Nom Nom happy because "he's sooo sad and lonely, he deserves it:(((". They don't care, otherwise it doesn't make sense to look at a guy that struggles with insecurity, bottles up negativity because he must be "the supportive one" and is still kind to jerks despite being uncomfortable and go "ah yes, I will ship him with the dude that constantly tries to use, belittle, humiliate him and was more than ok with getting him killed for a video, made the police hunt him down for a crab, and never tried to apologize to him and his family he also hurted, this ship is soooo healthy and wholesome💕💕💕"

I have to be honest. Even though I make a lot of posts about how E/riel is damned by the actual canon narrative - and it is - the ship is a NOTP status with me for one main reason.
Azriel.
It breaks my heart into tiny pieces thinking of him “choosing love” with someone who will never be free to fully choose him back.
Elain is not his mate. She will never be his mate. She will feel a tug to someone else for the rest of their long immortal lives. We know this because even the most mismatched of mates we have heard about - Rhys’s parents and Tamlin’s parents - were pulled together so strongly that they stayed together despite the mismatch. Tamlin’s mother wouldn’t hear a word spoken against his father. Rhys’s mother lived separately, but she was permitted to raise their children in love and in the traditions of her culture. Neither bond was rejected. Lucien has given Elain no reasons at all to reject their bond, but even if she did as is her right, she would always feel a tug.
Azriel isn’t just desperate for a mate of his own, left out by both of his brothers being blessed with this absolute pinnacle of true love forged in magic and fate. But he would have to look over his shoulder forever, knowing that the woman he has pledged himself to will always have a part of herself she cannot give back to him. To wonder, every time she got a look in her eyes, if she were thinking about another man. Feeling things about him. Maybe even regretting her choice.
What kind of a romance IS that? That is absolutely awful and not any kind of a happily ever after at all. I don’t even wish a rejected bond on Tamlin! I don’t want to read that, I hate even thinking about it. Which is why looking at E/riel art makes me feel sick.
This is not what I read romance for at all.

camilla or pyrrha for the character ask meme!
THANK YOU EMMA FOR GIVING ME AN EXCUSE TO TALK ABOUT CAMMMM MY GIRL.... CAMILLA DARLING
favorite thing about them: where do i even fucking start. her skill, and strength. her wit, she's so goddamn funny. her resolve. her bravery. the quiet ferocious intensity with which she loves and cares about people. as tragic and troubling and fucked up as it is in canon, i find her perennial tendency towards pair-bonded dysfunctional codependency to be. ALARMINGLY relatable. i love her flat affect. i love her observational skills- she's clever, and perceptive. i may or may not have an enormous crush on her. i love her loyalty and devotion. i love (read: hate) her tendency to deflect any and all important personal questions. i love that she doesn't let go. i love her love for spreadsheets and sharp knives and sensible shoes and sketching. i love her impeccable bedside manner. i love her and her letters and her cassette tapes and her fuckass bob and her smile that makes the earth want to marry her and i love her slate-clay eyes and her laugh. i love that she fought like her heart had already exploded.
least favorite thing about them: i mean, with camilla this question is really more of a "most concerning things about them," isn't it? her codependency, her lack of individuation and independence, her refusal to develop her own identity and exist as her own person. which, like, from one autistic bitch to another, girl i Get It. if i could get away with making myself a satellite accessory to another person instead of having to figure out how to be a person myself, if my society had groomed me to do exactly that from birth, yeah, i would probably do the same thing. being a person is fucking exhausting. but it's also so, so worth it, and it breaks my fucking heart that cam never had the chance, and that the people in her life by and large never encouraged her to really try. we do see pal pushing her on it a little here and there from time to time, and i appreciate that, but it was clearly never enough to stick, y'know? i hate how self sacrificing and selfless she is, i wish fandom at large would talk more about her depression, i want to give her wellbutrin and a hug and therapy.
favorite line: too many to choose. life is too short and love is too long. i don't let go, it's my one thing. sure, it's a nice handkerchief. i think there's another teaspoon full of blood in here somewhere. camilla hect fought like a grease fire. the cohort has taken the rest of him away and i don't know where they've put him.
brOTP: gideon, though i am a lover of the cam/gideon agenda! also nona, and palamedes.
OTP: dulcie, but i also love campyrrha, in like a mutually sorrowful toxic cathartic cav4cav grief sex sorta way.
nOTP: idk that i have one? i'm not really into cam/corona the way some people are
random headcanon: autistic like i mentioned earlier. i think she'd love cats
unpopular opinion: personally speaking I'm not a shooter for the aro/ace cam agenda, though i don't have anything against it!!! I've definitely seen it done in fascinating and lovely and compelling ways before! it's just not how i personally interpret her, but i think that's literally just a personal grudge on account of being an autistic woman with somewhat flat affect, and having seen fandoms Immediately jump to hit every serious-mannered, autistic-coded woman character that has flat affect with the aroace headcanon stick Immediately and at first blush without interrogating the potential stereotypes and assumptions behind that choice. not saying that that's what people are doing with cam at all, just that it was a general pattern i was observing across fandoms- honestly i see the logic behind it with her, and i don't think it's a "wrong" way to interpret her at all, i think it's perfectly founded! but unfortunately i am just projecting on her and she got caught in the crosshairs of me deciding i had Had Enough and that it was time to draw the "let autistic women fuck" shaped line in the sand and take a political stance 😂 you understand. aroace cam truthers are some of my most beloved comrades in arms. peace and love on planet earth
song i associate with them: EXISTENTIAL CRISIS HOUR! BY KILO KISH. see also: butterfly net by caroline polachek, true blue by boygenius, my friend by hayley williams, ***look at me now by caroline polachek,*** francis forever by mitski, the body is a blade by japanese breakfast, crude drawing of an angel by caroline polachek.
favorite picture of them: im on mobile and also stoned outta my gourd so I'll rb this with some art tomorrow!
ty emma!!!!

Eobard for 9 questions? 😏
*pinches u*
(Ask game here)
1: sexuality headcanon - pretty sure he prefers men but look, he's the most touch starved little thing in existence and he will take it or give it to and from anyone who's into it. He will also think about Barry for the whole time.
2: otp - Eobarry. I'm a multishipper and Eo is very shippable but Eobarry? I am CONSUMED you hear??? Consumed to the bone marrow.
3: brotp - Ehh Eobard doesn't really do friends. He'll be nice to people for a limited span of time if he has to but people are slow. Eobard's "natural" speed is ridiculously fast even for another speedster, dealing with anyone who forces him to slow down is exhausting on the long term. Beside the fact that he's not socialized and has no idea how to interact in a normal way of course.
4: notp - None at all!
5: first headcanon that pops into my head - When Barry didn't have his powers yet and Eobard would be there to mess with him, he also took advantage of the fact that Barry couldn't reject him to touch him gently, hold him and kiss him, remaining unseen and undetected because he was moving so fast. Or as I like to call it, the Guardian Demon headcanon
6: favorite line from this character - There are so many that I really like... okay how about this from The Flash Rebirth by Geoff Johns:
What if every bad thing that ever happened to you was orchestrated by one person? By an enemy you hadn't even made yet?
7: one way in which I relate to this character - something something childhood neglect redacted things unlovable motherfucker
8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character - I know that many people would say the stupid yellow banana suit, the fact that people call him "Professor Zoom", the whole "Reverse Flash" thing. The Negative Speedforce being an edgy concept, the way he's pompous, the fact that despite every horrible thing that happened to him and that he forces on other people, he's very vulnerable at his core and sometimes he just breaks down and cries. The fact that despite having died so many times, death terrifies him so much. That he's still die for him if Barry asked. The fact that he'll do anything to get Barry's attention because he's so desperate to be seen. Idk are these things people consider cringe about him? Well would you look at that, not me. I love him and his stupid yellow suit and the edgy stuff and the way he's so human. (Send help)
9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? - hahahaha

quick heads-up about ship content on this blog! :)
i realized that some people have notps and might be comfortable with only specific ship content so i wanted to give a quick heads-up that if i post/reblog ship content, it's going to be a large variety. my blog's a wild west in that way, and at this point my reasoning is - i'm running a tumblr blog in the year 2024 about founding fathers. i've crossed the line, there's nothing that's going to make me clutch my pearls any more. "problematic age gap" "toxic relationship" "they actually hated each other" yeah all i'm hearing is that this is juicy entertainment.
if you've seen my posts you'll know that my main relationship interests are hamliza, lams, hamburr - fairly conventional stuff. but be prepared at any and all times for everything else. jamilton. jeffmads. madilton. whamilton. can't remember any other ship names rn but you get the picture. and i might go crazy and even start advocating for crack ships and rarepairs just for the kick of it. the two randomest people you can think of? von steuben and washington? what the hell, why not! where is my talleyrand x hamilton 200k slow burn?
and this was all a ruse to once again publicly beg someone to write a john adams x hamilton fanfic because the idea of john adams reading it and convulsing is very funny to me. he'd roll in his grave so hard he breaks the richter scale.

For the character thing, can you do Mai?
It took me so long to find the last time I did this game to find the questions 😭
Sexually headcanon
Zukoromantic lesbian.
(Dates girls and Zuko)
Otp
Maiko!! They are soulmates in my mind, I absolutely adore them!!
Notp
I can't say I really have a notp for Mai. For me, notp means a ship o actively dislike and if I found it in the tags of a fic, it'd be a deal breaker and I wouldn't read that fic. For Mai, while there are a lot of ships I'm indifferent to, I can't say there are any I actively dislike and would ruin a fic for me.
First headcanon that pops into my brain
Mai and Azula shared a summer thing together while Zuko was banished. They were each other's gay awakening, and Azula is one of the only people Mai can talk about her feelings to, because the princess makes her feel comfortable.
Favourite line from this character
Tumblr media
The line itself. The delivery. The attitude. Calling Zuko a jerk. Saving Zuko despite him being a jerk because their love is so strong. Everything about this was chef's kiss. 🤌
One way in which I relate to this character
Knife collection!
Thing that gives me second hand embarassment about this character.
Dating that Justin Bieber looking bitch, Kei Lo. Like I believe their break up was necessary and that Zuko needed a reality check on all the ways you can't treat your girlfriend, Kei Lo's design is blander than vanilla.
Cinnamon roll or problematic fave
I have to say problematic fave. She was willing to go on a manhunt and hurt people only out of sheer boredom.

3, 22 - Helen, 23, and 25 - Nikola. (Because I'm mean on that last one) For the ask game, please! 😁
Hey hey 😊
3. NoTP?
(I feel like you're expecting Magnitt but ho ho that's a no)
Helen/Will hands down. I just don't see it. And I've yet to come across a fic that changes my mind on the idea even though I've tried more than a few in my time.
Also, I can't get behind anything Henry/Helen or Henry/Ashley because in my head that crosses all the family lines.
22. Give us a headcanon for [character]
OK. This is a hard one. I don't know if I have all that many headcannons for Helen... I mean, like, for sure she slept with Nikola. And I think that the reason she kept him around when they were at Oxford was because he was the only one who knew what it meant to be a true outsider. Plus even if he was sort of in love with her back then too, he was the only one who didn't treat her like a 'Lady' which she appreciated.
(I have spent like 20 minutes contemplating my answer to this one and I still have nothing good - sorry!)
23. Has your favourite character/ship changed over time?
Not really? I've always been team Teslen all the way, though I think my love of them and their dynamic has changed over time. Probably because my appreciation of Nikola in particular has changed. I used to just love them because their chemistry was *chefs kiss*, but the older I get and the more I invest in the whole world, they feel like the only viable options for each other to me. I'd write an essay on the topic, but somebody already sort of did that here and that is pretty much all my thoughts offered in a much more coherent way then me babbling about my love for the idiot bbys.
25. What's your least favourite thing [character] said or did?
Hehe... I know you think you're being tricky, but I honestly could give you a list of all the reasons Nikola is a prat! I'll break it into two catagories though...
Least favourite thing the writers did: 'The Five'. Because he was a grade A dick only because I don't think they knew what they wanted to do with his character yet. Which is fair, let's be real.
Least favourite character moment: joining SCIU like the raging idiot he is. I can totally rationalise it as him thinking he'd be her man on the inside, or that he didn't think it was that big of a deal, but also he so clearly just wanted the pay check and the glory (because the idiot bby is in fact a fame whore) and as always, totally failed to think about the bigger consequences. But also I think it's because, fundementally, he is a good person and sees the possibilities before the consequences so he just jumps straight in. Like, in his head working for SCIU would allow him to do these amazing things for the world and that makes it worth it. He didn't see anything beyond that point.

Per the ask game, chengyao?
tl;dr version: it's one of my notps. (welcome to the salt mines -_-)
Don't Ship It
Why don't you ship it?
tl;dr: i am uncomfortable when jc isn't about wwx, and jgy's taste is better than jc
I never read the situation with JL as co-parenting, so that's one basis of the ship right out, and l can't see why JGY would burden himself with JC or what would attract him to JC. Like... JGY likes people who trust him and people who are good people and who think he's a good person and people who aren't the emotional equivalent of a landmine field on fire. JGY can have either LXC or SMS and I'm pretty sure he's been over the "I can change him" stage ever since NMJ. There is absolutely nothing about JC that I think JGY would be remotely interested in. (I also think JGY post incest-reveal is so deeply traumatized that the entire range of romantic and sexual emotions becomes a no-go for him, with no exceptions.)
I also don't see JC as willing or able to extend feelings for people outside his sect post-WWX's death. People betray you and then they die. Outsiders to the sect will demand the most horrific sacrifices. I also think he didn't like JGY giving JL Fairy at all (I think it's completely possible to think he was grateful for it, I just like my JC entirely unable to let go of WWX), because that put him in a position where he must break a resolution or take his nephew's dog away. (I also find it hard to believe that JC doesn't know about the bullying at Jinlintai and hmmm. don't think it makes him think favorably on JGY. Rusong's death can also result in no positive appreciation of JC for the care JGY takes with JL's safety.)
So basically I'm not into JC having positive relationships with people that aren't WWX, I don't see them catching feelings, and I think both of them are wayyyyy too conscious of the power of gossip to consider sex together (if I thought there was an attraction, which I don't. I don't think JGY finds JC's volatilenesse attractive).
Also I'm a huge wimp and I want JC to only get manipulated and fucked over by WWX. (🥺) Together they're not unpleasant in ways I find fun.
What would have made you like it?
I could get behind the version of the ship where JGY gets a hate-crush on JC because 1)he's projecting his negative NMJ feelings after NMJ's death and JC is conveniently irascible and inconvenient, and/or 2)he's convinced that WWX was JC's half-brother and that colors all of his vision of what JC did or didn't do.
Does he think JC was being incestuous about WWX? (and then he wasn't punished for it. how unfair that he got off unscathed when JGY must carry the weight forever!!!)
Does he share LWJ's opinion that JC used WWX and then got rid of him when WWX became more an impediment than a help? (something that JGY when he's honest with himself - rarely - does know he did, but that he tries to pretend he didn't and can easily dislike JC for. this is why he's besties with LXC. LXC thinks he's Good. JGY likes being Good. JC is all kinds of a repulsive mirror.)
A version where it's requited isn't about WWX enough for me on JC's part, though.
Oh, in a version of canon where JGS wasn't Like That and JGY is thus severely less messed-up (and the WWX+Wens situation isn't as dire as in canon) might have had them carry on a casual-ish discreet relationship while JYL is visiting JZX. Or maybe it's a version where JGY never ended up torturing for WRH. Something that would make him a bit softer at that stage, and have JC a bit less single-focused on WWX. It might escalate and the relationship might deepen if something something JGS causes worse problems, against JGY, etc.
Alternatively, this is less straight-up shipping, but I love the idea that JC and JGY had an UnderstandingTM about JL not having accidents in Jinlintai so long as JC didn't do anything stupid, such as marrying, and that JC honestly did think JGY was going to wait until JL was closer to twenty before JGY started making active moves against JL. And it hurt JC's feelings when Guanyin Temple happened.
Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?
Extremely fucked up people and I'm happy that fans of the two characters seem to be having fun with it!

emhyr for character ask! 🥰☀
Yessss!!! My favourite child ❤️
Sexuality Headcanon: Very Gay. This man's type is strong, tough, and rugged. Half feral men he can look at and imagine his 13 year old self seeking shelter with. I blame HobbitDragon's fic on Ao3 for this characterisation, I read "White Flame Burning" once and decided - yep, sounds about right!
Gender Headcanon: Cis man, very comfortable with it.
You know the type of cis man that always projects this perfectly, societally acceptable, overbearingliy masculine aura - then one day they randomly start talking about their favourite nail salons, or about how much they love feeling pretty when they go on dates - and it makes all the dudebro's and pick-me's around them mad cause they feel deceived somehow?
That's Emhyr.
A ship I have with said character: Geralt/Emhyr, and honourable mention to Emhyr/Leto.
A BROTP I have with said character: Emhyr & Pavetta: partners in crime and co-conspirators. I headcannon they worked together to keep Pavetta from marrying someone her mother picked out for her, and to break the curse. The plan was that, afterwards, Duny was going to help Pavetta become the greatest queen Cintra had ever known, but he started chafing at the knowledge that he'd have to live forever under her command, and also at the knowledge that his homeland was still a massive cluster fuck. So he betrayed her.
Nonetheless, it was great while it lasted.
A NOTP I have with said character: Im going to say : none, with a caveat.
We have very talented and very deranged (affectionate) writers in this corner of the fandom. I'm pretty sure they can make anything work, given how much I love this character. I do have a strong preference for subby!Emhyr, though.
Random headcanons:
His mother was a witch.
He and Yennefer are becoming fast friends after Emhyr realised her council on Ciri is a lot more helpful than Geralt's, because Geralt legitimately thinks Ciri can do no wrong.
Will never retire. Once Ciri takes the throne he will dedicate his life to making sure her rule becomes legendary.
General Opinion over said character: My son! Absolutely fucked up, but in a delightful way. I'm constantly on the fence between wanting to give him all the nice things or wanting to put him in a jar and shake it. I think that's called "cute aggression".
Thank You so much for the ask!!

FIRST: Looks to the Moon! And if you want to Hunter as well?
HEHE YOU KNOW ME SO WELL <3
Fav thing about them:
Moon: Her. Just her. Her entire adorable being. Her structure, how calming it is to be inside it. The way she hangs upside down on her rig a lot, especially when examining you. Her cute nicknames for you. The way she thanks you for bringing her things. Her lil beepy voice she has before giving you the mark. Everything. Her personality, her puppet, her breathtaking structure. I can’t choose one and I will not.
Hunter: Her story! How selfless her mission is, and how she’s a little creature doing her best to save someone she’s never even met before. She uses her limited time to save someone who suffers the same fate as her—body breaking down, seizing and collapsing. I also like that she’s pink :)
Least fav thing about them?
Moon: Impossible. Nothing.
Hunter: I guess…how neglected she is? She’s never anyone’s favorite campaign (just get good at the game, scrubs), and she was the only scug that didn’t get an updated ending/attention in downpour. Obviously artihunter means she’s popular within the fandom, but game-wise a lot of ppl seem to forget about her, when it’s honestly a REALLY fun campaign!
Favorite Line:
Moon: “And so clearly, this forced broadcast is directed to you, Five Pebbles.”
Idk what it is about this line specifically, but I legit cannot read it without bursting into tears. I managed to hold it together but I read that line in her broadcast and just lost it. I cried for like 30 minutes and had to go hug my mom.
Hunter: Obviously she doesn’t speak in the game, but here’s one of my fav line(s) from a fic Im writing:
Tumblr media
She’s very proud of her name :)
brOTP
Moon: Is it weird to say Moon and Ruffles? It’s so cute that Moon named her and Ruffles seems to stay around even after the campaign. I headcanon that Rivulet struck out on her own to find out who she was, and after many adventures, decided that Ruffles was who she was.
Hunter: Ruffles too!! I see them having a cute sibling dynamic thanks to lilypad :3
OTP
Moon: LILYPAD OF COURSE!! DOOMED YURI MY BELOVED !!! Sig n Moons personalities work together so well and I love them sm ;-;
Hunter: APPLE JUICE!!! Monk x Hunter!!! I would have said artihunter but apple juice has captured my heart so hard i can’t help it.
nOTP
Moon: I don’t rlly like Eclipse but that’s just cuz I hc Moon is a lesbian. Also Waning Crescent/Slivermoon just doesn’t do it for me.
Hunter: Cherrypie…sorry cherrypie enjoyers I just can’t see it :( I feel like gourmand would see Hunter as more of a daughter figure.
Random Headcanon:
Moon: BEEPS! She beep-snorts when she laughs and often tries to hide it but Sig has made it her life mission to make Moon beep-snort-laugh as much as possible hehe
Hunter: She acts a LOT like Sig. Despite her ferocity in battle, she’s pretty goofy and playful during less intense moments. She also considers herself as Sig and Moon’s daughter (as do they)
Unpopular Opinion:
Moon: SHE IS NOT JUST “BORING FEMALE CHARACTER.” She has personality! She’s insanely stubborn when it comes to using her seniority privileges and obviously takes her role as local group senior very seriously. She is “nice and kind” but that doesn’t make her flat/stereotypical. Of course she’s gonna be nice to the player, you’re a little helpless animal.
Hunter: PLAY HER CAMPAIGN. PLEASE. It is not as daunting as you think it is, ESPECIALLY if you’ve beaten downpour cats! It IS challenging, but for me it really brings back the spirit of the original game: youre a helpless little creature. You can’t generate spears out of your ass, you can’t make explosives, all you can do is run slightly faster and throw spears slightly harder. You have to use your wit and skill to get through it, but it is so worth it.
Song I associate with them
Moon: Afterlife by Shadow Cliq
Hunter: No Mercy by DeathByRomy (it’s an artihunter song but god it goes hard)
Favorite Picture of Them:
Tumblr media
MEWNIE…
Tumblr media
And not to suck my own dick here or anything but this is my fav drawing i’ve done of hunter, my new year’s resolution was to learn to draw scugs so here’s my fav drawing of her i’ve done so far :3
TY FOR THE ASK!!

💚 + TYL male Tsuna
Who do you ship my muse with? Send me 💚 + a character name and I’ll give my thoughts on that ship! ||Accepting|| @signorinavongola
Oh? TYL Male Tsuna? Can’t say I was expecting that one, kekek Well well well, readmore time! I have many thoughts about this.
Let’s see… so I think most people who have ever talked to me at length will know how I feel about Tsuna x Haru, and know that I am not very partial to it. I am not a big fan of it, but it isn’t to the point that it’s a NOTP or anything. I’m fine with people shipping it or liking it, but it’s not exactly a ship that I enjoy on the regular.
IF I am to enjoy the ship, it probably has to be done under certain circumstances, or I simply will not tolerate it. As a person who has liked a person for years but he seemed to only pay attention to other girls and outright like one of her best friends—I feel Haru. It hurts a lot, it also damages your self-confidence and self-esteem. It really sucks, and the last chapter does show that she knows that Tsuna doesn’t actually pay attention to her.
She confronted him about it. I, Neo, will NEVER get over “Did you eat Yakisoba before coming, Haru? Your lips are shiny.”
YAKISOBA. YAKIBSOBA!? BOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIII THE WAY MY ANGER AND VIOLENT URGES SKYROCKETED WHEN I READ THAT. Haru did good to get in his face like ‘It’s my lip gloss that I’ve been using for a while! Pay more attention to me!’
That’s right. You tell him. Either pay attention to her or actually sit her down and tell her that you don’t see her that way and that you’ll never see her that way. Actually reject her so that she can move on and not believe on that minute chance that if she keeps trying he’ll look her way one day. I’m getting mad again.
Like, the way that Haru would do things like visiting Tsuna dressed up in silly costumes and he’d rebuke such a silly thing but you find out Kyoko is also there? She thought it’d be funny? Suddenly his tune changes, like wow what a great idea. Thanks for doing it. Honestly, it was a ‘just say that Kyoko is going and he’ll say he’ll go’ or ‘Kyoko thought it was a good idea’ and then he’ll agree and say that it is.
From Haru’s standpoint, that really sucks to have any effort of yours only be validated because of Kyoko’s involvement. Haru does have an odd way of seeing things and she’s a bit of a troll gremlin. She just loves to do silly things. People are suffering with their homework, why not take a break and have a heat endurance competition for fun? If I recall, Tsuna was like ‘what kind of monster would think of such a thing?’ Haru coming out like QuQ I’m not a monster—not gonna lie- fair. I get irrationally mad when I get hot and start sweating so yeah. You’re not wrong for that Tsuna LOL [I’m not a blind Haru stan that will forgive everything she does lol]
I’ve only said this to a handful of people, but it’s my theory that Kyoko and Haru both are to serve as different kinds of foil for Tsuna that you often see in Shonen series. There is the crush that the main character likes who will either secretly also like him back OOOOOR will come to like him as the series progresses. That is Kyoko’s role in the series. Then in many shonen, you’ll also have that one girl who likes the main character and will seemingly not fall out of love even though there are so many choices around her? Hinata steadfastly liking Naruto only (lucky her, she marries him in the end. Good on ya, girl!). Momoi having a crush on Tetsuya (yes, KNB). Boa Hancock who is just smitten with Luffy even though he doesn’t really notice her like that. Could’ve made the case with Juvia and Gray for a while (Fairy Tail). It’s been a while I forget if they were canon at the end of the series. I know Gajeel and Levy were canon! That was the pairing I needed in my life.
Basically, it’s a thing. That’s basically Haru. It’s like Haru’s role is to be the girl who just loves Tsuna and even though there are so many guys around her who are just as great (if not better) she’s still only locked onto Tsuna. Haru and Kyoko are the foils that are to tell the readers thus: You may be a loser but if you work hard and be a good guy, your crush will eventually look at you. OR You may be a loser, but there is probably a girl who will like you anyways for who you are. Last chapter of KHR is actually criminal. Haru finally confronts him about how he doesn’t pay attention to her and then he blushes like ‘I am paying attention’ and then Reborn and Bianchi stand there like oh look he’s blushing. These two consistently keep dropping hints that Haru and Tsuna are a good pair and they make me want to punch a wall.
Cease and desist. I hate it here. Reborn did add the fact that Haru was getting popular with guys as of late and it’s because she’s cute. Reborn gets a pass for that added commentary. He isn’t on my shit list for that. Amano committed a crime against me by having Tsuna save Haru again and making Haru fall for Tsuna even harder. I’ll literally NEVER FORGIVE HER FOR THIS. You gave me hope that Haru can finally escape the one-sided love, and you do this??? 왜? POR QUE? WHY? なぜ? Perché? I’m not exactly sure what Amano’s goal was with the last chapter, but if she’s trying to hint that he will actually start paying attention to her and like her—I’ve mixed feelings. If she’s implying that he won’t ever really make his choice and it’ll be almost like an harem kind of thing? I’ll sooner pair Haru and Kyoko together before I accept this. I do think that Tsuna was supposed to be paired with Kyoko though, it did seem hinted in the TYL arc. If so, I’m sure they’d make a lovely pair.
Let. Haru. Be. FREE!!!!!!!! Haru, please, you have OPTIONS. Look at all the guys around you, they’re great. Look at them. PLEASE.
Now, I’ll also say that Haru isn’t without fault either. She’s incredibly stubborn, and she probably was being very optimistic in her idea that if she keeps trying, he’ll eventually look at her and come to like her too. One day she’ll come out from being the shadow woman and actually be with him. She also comes off really strong, and it’s burdensome to push your feelings onto someone. I’ll admit that she’s wrong for that. It’s not a good behavior. I can see why he lowkey pushes her away sometimes. I can see why he feels exasperated around her. I won’t blame him for that because I get it.
Before I move on, let me talk to you about something that absolutely breaks me and I want others to feel sad too. Haru Character song broke me the day I actually read translation. Haru really was like I’m okay with being the shadow woman because she loves him. I will cause multiple counts of aggravated assault on a pillow.
Because I’m upset about it, here are a few memorable quotes from the song “Kita no Dangerous”
I love you, Tsuna-san When I'm awake, when I'm sleeping To think that this heart will break It's a very horror everyday
"Aa~ I don't care if I am only a shadow woman I'll follow you wherever Because because Haru loves you, Tsuna-san
But our school is different It's a very lonely everyday Even if you take advantage on this love weakness I want you to rely on it on trouble times
LITERALLY DON’T GET ME STARTED ON HOW MUCH THIS HURT ME THE DAY I FINALLY READ THE TRANSLATIONS. I WILL SMITE!!!!!!!!!!!
GIRL. Where is your self-love. Your self-worth? EXCUSE ME? You’re okay if you’re only a shadow woman because you love him? You’ll follow him because you love him? It’s okay if he takes advantage of your love? HAH!?!!?!?!?!
There is a reason why I am not a fan of this ship. Look at what this love has done to my girl. THIS! IS. WHY. I. WRITE. HARU. OLDER. I don’t want to write her as she’s still in love. I don’t want to write her when she’s in a one-sided love lying to herself that it’s okay if she’s a shadow woman. Kill me, actually.
[Does this mean you don’t think Tsuna and Haru would make a good couple?]
LOLOLOL I didn’t say that. Despite how it sounds, I don’t think they’d make a bad couple. I just think it would require a LOT of work.
I have a lot of random thoughts here and there but I won’t go into that. I will instead focus on what circumstances need to happen for me to accept a Tsuna x Haru ship. I will literally not accept a suddenly Tsuna decided he liked Haru back one day and they just instantly became a ship. NAH. After all the suffering she’s been through? All the times her efforts weren’t appreciated or went ignored? I won’t tolerate that for a second. As long as Haru is my muse, if Tsuna ever came up to her randomly and say that he liked her back, she’ll believe that she’s being lied to. Something happened. The first two things she’ll ask is: Is this a joke? Or ‘Did you finally confess to Kyoko-chan and she rejected you? Is that why you like me now?’ Haru has no chill sometimes, and I love her for it.
Like sure, I’m sure if he was like I’m not kidding, she would probably believe him and probably be okay with it—but I’M NOT. This is the one thing that I will fight Haru on. She may say okay but I’ll say no. After everything she’s been through? I’m not having such an anticlimactic ‘oh, you actually like me? Okay! Great!’ NAAHHHHHHH We’re not having that.
As we all know, I default Haru to being 18 and that she’s already gotten over Tsuna. The only way I’d accept Tsuna and Haru being a thing is after she stopped liking him, he for whatever reason decided/realized that he liked her. Then it’s his turn to try to court Haru. It probably won’t be that easy considering she gave up on her feelings for him, and that likely didn’t come without significant thought and emotionally sorting through her feelings. If Tsuna was willing to actually court her and try to get her to love him again while also understanding the fact that she’d been hurt for a long time because of him- I can agree to the ship. I’m not about to have Haru be the only one who got hurt in this ordeal.
You can suffer a little bit too, Tsuna. That’s the bitter Haru-mun talking.
Phew, now for the part you actually came here to ask for lol.
Tsuna spent a lot of his childhood being a dame-Tsuna. Even his mother would talk down on him sometimes, but Nana has also said herself that she didn’t need Tsuna to be special or amazing. She just wanted him to be happy. Knowing that he didn’t have many friends growing up, his sociability is a bit lacking. He needs time to really come to understand how to really interact with people and we do see him struggling with that throughout the series, but he learns! Quickly, at that.
Tsuna can also be a bit on the timid side, someone who can be a bit indecisive, but when it’s important, and the stakes are high, he’s able to make decisions based off instinct or what he thinks is right. I do think he needs someone that could compliment that, where they aren’t so timid, and may have a secret softer and hurt side that they don’t show others. He would do well to be paired with someone who is very supportive and is patient with his timid nature. Someone who would understand that he may struggle to say somethings because he doesn’t want to hurt people. Honestly, that’s probably the reason why he never really outright rejected her. He didn’t want to hurt her and maybe he feared that in doing so he’d lose a friend.
For a person who didn’t have many friends, losing one is a scary concept, so I get that and can sympathize with it. (I still get mad on Haru’s behalf though) Anyways, I do think that Haru is a nice kind of opposite to him since she’s very honest and open. She speaks her mind and she’s very open to talking out if someone is doing something bad. She’s not afraid to simply speak up and smack someone if need be. That said, she’s mostly that open and bold when it comes to others. If it comes to talking about herself, she’s surprisingly pretty quiet and to herself about it. Tsuna would probably be able to pick up on some of that.
So in some ways they could help each other. Tsuna being that person who would support him every step on the way, remind him that he’s capable of doing many great things, and to just be there for him. He can also be there for her when she’s struggling with something and be that quiet personality who will silently support her. If she wants to talk, they can, but if she’d prefer to sit in silence and mope, he’ll be there in silent support.
Haru just appreciates effort and intent, so as long as he was trying to do something nice for her or what, she’d always appreciate it. She wouldn’t look down on Tsuna for being to be cool and then failing. She doesn’t care if he’s not the smartest. She doesn’t care if he’s not the tallest, the most athletic, etc etc. She cares for someone’s sense of morals, their integrity, and their personality. She’d appreciate him and his intentions, and I think that would do him well, knowing that she loved him for who he was.
She doesn’t love him because he has power. She doesn’t love him for superficial things like his looks, or anything like that. Haru, I feel, is very good at showing people that when she likes them, she likes them for THEM. There is very little room to doubt her affections, and for Tsuna who (in canon) has shown a lot of self-confidence issues, it’s a good thing. We do see that he improved on that a lot through the course of the series, however.
Basically, if they were to be a couple, they’d be a sweet and caring one. They’d be very supportive of each other, they’d simply love to be together and just be wholesome and sweet.
I’ll stop it there because I don’t write with a TYL Tsuna (male) and so I’m not sure how one or the majority choose to write him. It’s hard for me to say how they’d be as a couple in TYL. Bottom line, if they were to somehow be a couple, I think they’d make it work. They’d be a nice couple.
You just gotta convince the squinting mother in law (ME).

and obito ofc!!
Favorite thing about Obito is how he falls so hard into darkness, having come from such a hopeful place. Really fucks me up in the best way.
LEAST FAVORITE - the fact his entire story supposedly revolves around a girl he had a crush on as a kid. Why did they give him and Kk this extraordinary romance and rivalry but Rin is just around... GIRL. It's not enough to shove a boy and girl together and call that a compelling romance. I am screaming.
Favorite line: so many bangers, but I am basic I guess? "In the shinobi world those who break the rules are regarded as scum, but those who would abandon their friends are worse than scum. I'm scum anyway, so I’m going to choose to break the rules." - it was because of this that I first loved his character. I also love, "I see now. This world is hell." Idk it just gives me goosebumps.
brOTP: Naruto and Obito!!!!! Be friends be friends!!!! *Pointing a gun*
OTP: KKOB!!!!!!!!!!!
nOTP: Obir*n
Random headcanon: Obito survived off eating bugs for a long time. Cave life is hard.
Unpopular opinion: I really don't know what's popular or not since I don't fuckin care what most fans have to say (no offense to you, you in particular.) But I think he was totally correct and valid to try and put everyone in an infinite dream machine. Hello? Sign me up.
Song I associate the heaviest with him

Carlos Rodriguez for the ask!
Got A LOT of requests for my cutie, Carlos- so here you go everyone! :)
Favorite thing about them: His wit and sass. He literally had me in tears laughing throughout season 3 and there are so many times his sass just works in the scene. He’s an absolute diva and he knows it, but his bluntness with the characters keeps the drama moving along. I would give anything to have a girls night where Carlos and I wear face masks, eat chocolate, and discuss our friends relationships. You couldn’t tell me that wouldn’t be the best night ever.
Least favorite thing about them: His sass/diva persona is a double-edged sword. There are a lot of times he comes across harsh or selfish when he wants his way. Determination is a great thing, but putting your friends needs below it (like the co-choreographer debocal), will leave you lonely and sad. I know he has big dreams, but sometimes he puts his needs first at others expense and it can come across as egotistical. I think this is a root to a lot of the Seblos issues- Carlos only reads how he interprets situations as correct, rather than putting himself in the other person’s shoes.
Favorite line(s):
“Broadway?”
“Ah! I’ve been slapped!”
“It’s freaking Norway, Ricky”
It’s not a line, but his face in 1x08 when he’s rehearsing with EJ is ICONIC
“Ok but if it’s not about me, then who?”
“But does that mean you’re going to let the next girl go without even trying?”
“I’m gay and Mexican- this IS my inside voice!”
“You can’t just Zefron your way through auditions this time”
“I don’t think he’s slept or spoken in the past 24 hours… there’s a high chance he’s a Babadook”
“We’re doing the first read-through before I’ve had my third cup of coffee…. Oh, Ricky and Gina are 100% missing” (say it again louder Carlos this was so real of you)
“Because the key to any great reality show is the 3 B’s: bombshells, betrayals and BLEEP slaps” *gasps*
“I think I broke the children”
“Remember, Ricky, you have unresolved feelings for Gina”… “Gina, what’s your motivation?” Gina: I don’t want to get started “Yes, AND you’re angry at your boyfriend and using your ex-boyfriend to get under his skin. Basically, have fun torturing EJ” Gina: I can do that 😈
“Jilted ex suits you bro… oh no. I said ‘bro’ and now you’re gonna reveal something”
-bonus: “Sorry. I’m adjusting to being called ‘bro’”
“I didn’t come to make friends” “It cut me off! I said, ‘I didn’t come to make friends, I came to be a star!” Ricky: yeah, that’s not any better
OTP: Seblos ❤️
nOTP: EJ and Carlos
brOTP: Carlos and Ricky, Kourtney, and Miss Jenn… but if I had to pick one, probably Kourtney
Something I expect from them season 4 (if applicable): I think the situation of Carlos at camp is going to get confused by Seb of Carlos cheating again. I think Seb will think the relationship is over (“we were on a break!”… if you know what I’m quoting, you’re the best), so he will date someone else. This will parallel the r*ni fight in S1, which gets us the Seblos song.
Random Headcanon: even if this never happens in S4, it is my personal HC that as a thank you for s2, Carlos helps Ricky write a song for Gina.
Unpopular Opinion: I don’t even know if this actually is unpopular, but I could see it being that way so I am putting it here. His line to Gina about “look around, there’s not really a lot of me here” has bothered me since it happened. I think things like being from multiple minorities is really important to address in shows like this, so I’m glad it was brought up. However, I think his timing/tone for bringing it up was bad because it read more as “my problems are bigger than yours!” rather than, “hey I get what it feels like to be lonely and how important choreography makes me feel like I stand out/have purpose”. Instead Carlos seemed defensive and was like “I have problems too!” So this caused Gina to cower and let him lead the dance number. He didn’t even say thank you or try to encourage her to still help him, he just was like “ok great!” And seemed like he was happy he got his way. IDK I guess this goes back to my disliked trait for him, because Gina in that moment probably just needed a friend and somebody to show her she didn’t have to suffer alone, but instead Carlos flipped the situation back on him and it seemed guilt-trippy. I wish they would have brought up his struggles in a different context or had him use a different tone/dialogue in that scene that didn’t paint him like that, is all.
Song I associate with them: The King by Conan Gray, Hand on Mine Megan and Liz, and I know it’s from the show (I’m trying to avoid songs from the show for this ask) but since he doesn’t sing it I’ll use it. But I think of him every time I listen to Born to be Brave; his talk with Mozzarella Stick and him being lifted by the whole crowd is burned into my brain so I see it whenever I listen to that song
Favorite picture of them:

Kyle Stan and Kenny for the ask game? :3
(ask is in reference to this post. thank you for the ask!!)
Sexuality Headcanon:
Stan: flip flops between labels but eventually settles on "queer" because he likes the ambiguity
Kyle: my god, this bitch is gay! good for him, good for him.
Kenny: doesn't deal in labels. if you ask him to define his sexuality he'll just laugh. if you keep pressing he'll be like "my type is hot people. so dont worry, I'm not going to hit on you."
Gender Headcanon:
Stan: this fella is a walking identity crisis! he uses he/they pronouns but if you ask him to define his gender he will break down into garbled screaming and run away to go shake and sob in a corner :)
Kyle: cis man, comfortable with his gender identity and aware of where he sits on the spectrum thanks to countless conversations about it with stan. he thinks he's only interested in presenting and being perceived in a masculine way until someone calls him "pretty boy" and then kyle.exe stops working 🥴
Kenny: no label, any pronouns, whatever whatever whatever. "gender? no thanks, I just ate."
A ship I have with said character: okay firstly I must state my affinity for STYLENNY SUPREMACY 🛐 but in terms of non-poly ships:
Stan: Style (shocker), Stutters, Stolkien, Stary, Stenny, Staig, t4t Stendy
Kyle: Style, K2, Cryle
Kenny: Bunny, Crenny, K2, Twenny, Stenny
A BROTP I have with said character:
Stan: Stan & Craig. they openly loath each other, but they secretly see a part of themselves in the other and so are motivated to help each other out in their problems in a fucked up egocentric kinda way >:D
Kyle: Kyle & Tolkien & Wendy form an unlikely friendship because they enjoy doing hobbies together that their friends find boring, like reading and being sensible. they're also the go-to group when one of them needs to rant and rave whilst the other two nod their heads sympathetically
Kenny: Kenny & Bebe as unstoppable beings of sheer power
A NOTP I have with said character: (no hate to people who ship this, it can be cute but it's just not my cup of tea;
Stan: Stendy, when it's basic bland and cishet
Kyle: Mutual Kyman makes me deeply uncomfortable for reasons that I don't need to get into because I'm sure you can all guess. Once sided Kyman (from Eric) can be interesting though, but it's gotta be done Just Right for it to pass my personal vibe test
Kenny: I don't love Kenny ships where he's written with predatory/rapey undertones (this was more prominent in the early fandom days I think). write him however you want but at the end of the day we all know he's a consent king with so much love to give <3
A random headcanon:
Stan: he has acne!! he's self conscious about it but tbh it's cute on him
Kyle: loathes the summer with a passion because of his hayfever. loathes the winter with a passion because he just gets one cold after another. this guy loathes the weather 24/7 and he will make it EVERYONE'S problem >:(
Kenny: my guy can fall asleep anywhere. on a bus? lights out. in class? snoozing. right in the middle of a conversation? zzzzz. his go to response to any problem or crisis is a nap. it drives his friends up the wall but what are they gonna do, whake him? when he looks so sweet and peaceful curled up like that? you'd have to be a monster to distrupt that bliss
General Opinion over said character: good god I love these guys 🥹

For the character asks, how about Jason?
sorry it took me a while anon!
(Ask game here)
1: sexuality headcanon - Pansexual. But he has a preference for people who can break him with one finger and snap him in half with two, it's got to be a little bird thing apparently.
2: otp - There's a ton of ships I like with Jason but I don't think I have an OTP. Prolly my favorites are Jayrose, Jason/Roy/Kory and Sladejay in no particular order.
3: brotp - Jaytemis. Please they are everything. I'm not too much of a fan of their romance but yeah why not fuck nasty while being best bros anyway.
4: notp - Jaybabs. Fucking please leave Barbara alone and stop sticking her with random batkids, let her be her own character instead of the token love interest. Thanks.
5: first headcanon that pops into my head - He can still turn into a tentacle monster :)
6: favorite line from this character - From Under the Red Hood by Judd Winick
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know I know, this is not just one line but y'all will forgive me.
7: one way in which I relate to this character - Something something failure from guardian figures to ensure the safety of their child, something something victim blaming.
8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character - Seeing him in any panel of WFA being all lovey-dovey with Bruce "UwU they're such cute father-and-son".
9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? - He's way less problematic than lots of people want him to be but yeah, I'm going to have to say problematic fave.
