#hero kinda likes villain ngl

some trailer things:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
big fight around lust/ozzie's place that involves m&m and loona + we know fizzarolli is going to make another appearance, so i wonder how that'll connect potentially. also, new villain?
Tumblr media
obvs the whole section of CHERUB working with DHORKS and this massive thing/portal:
Tumblr media
john waters big villain episode???? (ghostfuckers from the looks of things)
Tumblr media
also more crossdressing in that same episode + millie vs possessed blitz? both millie and blitz giving some evil dead type vibes?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
more on stolas' whole social sphere and potential judgement and hell's class politics related to his dating blitz + p much confirmed that blitz will not take stolas' gift in the spirit it was intended
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
also, "you fucks think you can do this every time-" feels not just like it's about the wider class issues in hell, but maybe like it's personal (potentially with verosika? although it does seem like it's canon that he had more than a little bit of a hand in ending that relationship, so could just be him echoing everything he's been seeing in the treatment of imps and putting that onto stolas in this moment)
and then "thank you blitz, for making me so happy, even for a little while" is during this moment too. lot of teasers for how this is gonna go down (badly, upsettingly, emotionally)
the whole "do you feel any remorse for what you do" feels like a misdirect -- that is, it's edited to look like it's about blitz, but i feel like it's directed at stella or her brother
generally a lot of fun stolas visuals that i won't get into here, but am excited to see more contexts for
also this isn't new, but im always interested in blitz's heart/broken-heart forehead marking
Tumblr media Tumblr media
blitz and tilla moment! generally more flashbacks (in the shape of blitz seeming to be almost at the movies, watching his own "failures") around the time of the fire! i didn't see any barbie stuff, alas, but the rest of it looks !!! also lowkey confirmed it was cash who stopped blitz from seeing fizz in hospital
who's this?
Tumblr media
another sin? maybe related to ozzie and/or stolas and that judgement of the kinds of people they love?
blitz protecting stolas - maybe from the above, considering the hand motif of it all... stolas really living the life of blitz as a romantic hero, while blitz is barely holding it together as a person the whole time. different genres, my guys. different genres (that's their real communication issue)
Tumblr media
this fuck-you-blitz cake looks like a verosika thing to do, esp considering it's her calling him shitty in the VO -- but yay, maybe giving that verosika catharsis, but also generally just verosika!
also the VO part where he says he doesn't want to be this way, he's wearing the same shroud as during his confrontation with verosika. idk, im just. contexts for things. i am curious
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
is the below also the same episode? I'd think so. it's set during halloween (?) and blitz is then maybe in the blood-covered shroud (costume? undercover? going undercover as a ghost? post-breakup stalking undercover ghost costume?)
Tumblr media
MAMMON! and he looks pleased. oh dear.
Tumblr media
this blitz + fizz moment
Tumblr media
it kinda looks like blitz is wearing the same tee as when he and stolas have their moment + a horse bag + fizz casual wear. fizz generally in this trailer seems to be having the best time (outside the flashbacks). everything makes me suspicious all the time
(also generally hello all the different outfits coming up!!)
fascinated by this:
Tumblr media
is that millie?
things we didn't see:
no barbie, no striker, no crimson, no asmodeus (directly, although his imagery is everywhere + fizz and mammon appear), no paimon -- this not to say none of them will show up, but am enjoying that a lot of this is clearly pulling from s1, with the focus on verosika, DHORKS, and CHERUB -- potentially a lot of the s2 villains need some time to lick their wounds a bit (and paimon was never a Villain, just a terrible parent... if he ever returns though...)
and barbie... i do want to see barbie again soonish ngl, she needs some proper introducing, but this is already giving so much callback and continuation of immediate plot-threads, very excited

Okay, so you know how Barrayar is full of stories of evil mutants kidnapping innocent Vor maidens, just like we IRL have a bunch of story templates exploiting our societal fears of some exoticized evil Other stealing our women?
And you know how modern romance/erotica takes those stories and turns them into erotic fantasies? Like, women have been going mad over The Phantom of the Opera for centuries, we've had stories about innocent maidens being forced into arranged marriages with big dick sheikhs and Middle Eastern princes for decades, and in the past decade or so both monster romance and villain romance have become completely mainstream staples of the genre?
And you know how Miles allegedly killing Tien so he could court Ekaterin was Vorbarr Sultana's Scandal of the Year for a short while, before the whole affair was capped by Ekaterin's very memorable and very public proposal?
Now, imagine some repressed Vor housewives hearing about it and thinking, in a similar vein to what Mark thought, "NGL, that's kinda hot. I always did have those fantasies where I was ravished by the villain, and I really do sometimes wish my boring sexist husband were dead." Because now that they've caught up on galactic genetics the actual fear of mutant children is kinda low among the bored upper class housewives who can afford gene cleaning, so it's the perfectly zeitgeisty moment to exoticize and objectify the mutants instead.
So one of said bored housewives decides to anonymously write a pulpy gothic-esque dark romance/erotica novel about it. Except obviously the scrawny short guy doesn't make for an appealing romantic hero, so she makes him a Taura-esque tall, massively ripped fellow who growls all his lines a là ACOTAR's Rhysand and conveniently makes all his mutations sexy in the vein of, like, A/B/O novels or Ice Planet Barbarians.
Imagine "Ravished by the Billionaire Secret Agent Mutant Count" slowly becoming popular among the ladies and the main cast learning about it, Miles lamenting about it having come out now when he's happily married and not when he was fifteen and desperate to get laid, Ivan suddenly gaining a lot more traction with the girls because they've caught onto the real life inspiration for the novel and are wondering if the Big Dick Mutation comes from Ivan's side of the family, Cordelia shamelessly reading it at dinner (she's the only person who's read it without wrapping the cover) and annoyedly pointing out the biological inaccuracies as Aral begs her to stop, Mark seeing the opportunity for a cash grab and buying the holodrama rights...

You still take requests???
If so could you write hcs about batboys realizing they're in love 🥰 (with male reader if you could) (if you did before could you share link 🙏) Love you...
IM SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG JT GOT BURIED UNDER DRAFTS IM SORRY 😭😭
THIS IS A NWLNW BLOG!! WOMEN DNI
Dick Grayson
When he realizes hes in love with you
HES DOWN HORRENDOUS
ok he's like probably really bad at hiding his feelings so he ends up like flirting like prolly more often
Bottom of the barrel shit sometimes too
Bro would straight up say "Nice cock" if he had balls
Batfam teases him for how obvious he is
Depending on whether or not youre a superhero he's gonna be protective
Like yea as a civilian hes protective enough. Gotham is very dangerous!!
If you're a superhero too than he'll probably be a bit less protective... or atleast try to be
"Y/n can handle dealing with Poison Ivy himself it'll be fine... I'll go show up just in case."
If you're a villain though he's always the one to arrest you (he lets you go)
He aint the elaborate plan type of guy when it comes to this
So he one night jusy thinks "Yea im def gonna fess to him"
So no matter if youre civilian, hero, or villain he'll confess with a bouquet of flowers under the moonlight with some shit pick up line
Jason Todd
Used to have internalized homophobia but now hes over it... mostly
If youre a villain he'll straight deny his feelings for the longest time
Civilian or hero though? He'll definitely flirt
As in he just shows that he wants to protect you I guess
It honestly took him a while to realize he had feelings for you
Like yeeaaa hes gotten with alot of women and all but like with you? Something is hitting different and he doesn't know what
Roy finds out for him
He found out and teased Jason and Jason is just like "Wait what🧍‍♂️"
So with this new found crush how will Jason approach it?
Hes either really blunt or will completely avoid it all together 💀💀
Like i'm ngl you gon have to make the first move
Tim Drake
He found out he was bisexual and really went "Oh🤨??...OH😲"
Like if you just go to school with him he'll like try to hang out with you more
If you're a hero he's going on patrol more often just to hang around
And if youre a villain💀💀 He definitely tries to keep up the hero facade but like
Fucks it up with getting nervous
"I dont wanna hurt him too bad so he hates me. Wait he's trying to kill me though. I think he is???"
Has definitely lost a few fights with you bc of that 😭😭
Damian found out first (analytical lil shit) and made fun of him
Not in the homophobic way but in the way where his brother has a crush and looks like an idiot
"Drake you look like an utter idiot."
He tries to be smooth (Advice from Dick ofc) and fails
He does the thing where he tries to lean against a wall and fell the other way😭😭
Man just ask him out so he can quit embarrassing himself please
Damian Wayne
Def has internalized homophobia sorry
You know he isnt the best at his feelings so when he's around you he goes a bit crazy-
'I think of Y/n as a friend. Why would I think more of him as more?? Is it normal for me to like boys???? Dear god.'
Asks Alfred about it (One of the batbros prolly heard him though and barge in I'm ngl)
He isn't sure how to go about uh... "Courting you" as he calls it
Like yea he gets the kinda stuff to do for girls he's read many novels on that
But boys??? Hes stumped
He ends up stalking all the couples in his school for an answer
And probably ends up avoiding you :((
Whenever you try to confront him he just says "Its nothing." and leaves
Buuttt one day he ends up spilling everything on accident

I forgot the Miraculous Awakening movie was supposed to come out so now I’m gonna ramble about it (spoilers!):
The jumpscare of hearing Marinette sing in a completely different voice took me off guard
I’m loving actually seeing gabriel as a fashion designer and what his stuff looks like
Chloe sounds… very much not like Chloe and it’s off putting (idk if it’s a different voice actor, I’m not looking it up)
“Think you an I were meant to be” I love Alya
Emilie? This clearly in the movie??
Was that Luka I just saw next to Juleka? At school???
The black cat on the book!
Adrien looks so pretty in that shot
Are… are Nino and Adrien already friends??
Gabriel’s hair
The loss of Emilie seems to be a lot more recent/present than in the series
Ohhh it’s her birthday
The lore is very interesting in this, we’re getting a lot more that wasn’t there in the show
So the miraculous have a choice in this for their holders I guess
Fu is so funny
The moon!
Was… was the black cat a coincidence? How did it get there? I don’t think it was Plagg so what was that??
So the first akumatized victim is not a child this time
There’s a ladybug too? I’m so confused
“Who saves a life saves the world” interesting that it’s more prophecy-like
I keep forgetting this is a musical
I love the beats of the theme song though
Is- is Tikki rapping???
No transformation sequence?
So she’s aware it’s a musical?
Is the yo-yo sentient???
No Adrien and Plagg intro scene?
Adrien is so funny he’s so excited to be a hero
Pretty different ladynoir dynamic, cat noir’ not immediately smitten
“A she-ro” please no
She called him Kitty!
CARELESS WHISPER???
Now he’s smitten
“Like a dream in a dream” Adrien you have to work on your lyrics
But the moon
Fart jokes? Really?
PTFAFS
Adrien going from she’s my side kick to she’s better than me in every way
Puss in boots
“I have nothing to lose” um your son??
Gabriel villain song kinda goes hard ngl
Is he making multiple villains? I’m so lost
Are they making Mr. Mime a real villain now? Not Mylene’s dad?
Also who is this pink haired lady?
“Dr. Love” Nino I love you but you’re so wrong
So Nino already has a crush on Alya and not Marinette
Aww Tom gets to hear Marinette call him the best
Only to immediately think she’s embarrassed by him
Nino losing his glasses on the ride is legit my biggest fear when going on rides
Transformation sequence!
Where did she actually transform though? She was just in the middle of the fair
They learned to work together fast
So I guess he doesn’t need to say the word cataclysm?
I love Ferris wheels rolling around scenes
Lmao Marinette really went I’ll save your life but you’re going in the dumpster
The timeline of this movie is very confusing, Nino is in love with Alya? But wasn’t it just the first day of school? Or was it just in the middle? When did Nino and Adrien meet? I have so many questions
Was the balloon thing a person? If not who created him and how?
THEME SONG!
Are we really getting all this adrienette development in a montage?? He told her about his mom, they went to the movies, they had a double date with Alya and Nino, and were barely getting it???
I love the glitter in Cat Noir’s mask
Ladynoir moment by the moon!
Marinette stood up to Chloe!
Adrien you cannot scare a person like that
The hearts in the balcony and the moon again!
I’m loving the visuals in this movie
“For the first time I feel truly free, it’s all thanks to you” my heart!
Ladynoir seems to be the main ship of the movie and I’m not mad about it
Oh my god their dance by the moon! I knew it was coming but I love it so much!
“How could I ever think she’d fall for me” Adrien stop she does love you she just doesn’t realize it’s you
Gabriel looks like shit and I’m glad to see it
I’m glad Adrien was able to stand up to him though
She actually managed to ask him out holy shit!
I mean I know it’s sad cause he rejected her but she actually managed to do it look at her!
I… did not think her shirt was a tank top this is so weird
Hawkmoth is akumatizing himself???
Careless Whisper again??? Are the writers ok??
Did they really need the takeout death?
The- the moth miraculous just… ate the ladybug miraculous???
I guess they don’t quite have cataclysm and lucky charm, their powers work a bit differently
Gabriel’s face at seeing Adrien, now you finally see what you’ve done you SOB
I’m glad they get to reconcile
So she can just… fix everything without a lucky charm??
Her dress is so pretty!
And she’s not wearing a mask!
The reveal in this is so interesting but pretty cute!
The way she took off his mask and put it on her was so freaking cute!
Really? Cut to the end right before the kiss??
So he does have Emilie in the basement?
Wait a minute I don’t think we ever got to see Chloe and Adrien interact in the movie lmao
The movie started a bit more cheesy and childish but overall they did a pretty good job of telling the story. The visuals were stunning, though the story was a bit rushed but they did a good job. There wasn’t quite enough time to develop the characters and their dynamics but they did the best they could with the time they had. The person who did Marinette’s singing voice was amazing, but I wish they found someone who sounded more like Marinette if they couldn’t use the same voice actress. The lore was a bit different but I kind of like it better than how much we started getting in later seasons, I just wish we got a bit more explanation on some things cause we don’t have the show to give us answers anymore. The only reason I feel like this ending with gabriel and Adrien works is because they didn’t have as much of an abusive relationship and he actually had a chance to redeem himself, but I’m glad he has to actually deal with the consequences. I know there are tons of fanfics about it but it’s so sad that while Marinette knew who Adrien was, he had no idea if he’d ever see Ladybug again but I’m glad that got resolved pretty quickly. I’m confused on what they want to do next cause they clearly were setting up for some kind of sequel but gabriel is already out as Hawkmoth and Nathalie only helped him during that time but I guess we’d just have to wait and see.

Dabi meeting his darling at the store in the hair dye section
Warnings: none! this is actually kinda cute ngl. gn reader.
--
"I wouldn't get that brand if I were you."
Blue eyes snap towards you. You've seen him around often, but you never got the courage to talk to him until now. He always wore the same thing, a black hoodie and mask, deep purple scars peaking out under his eyes. His black hair slowly fading away, red roots on the verge of taking over.
"Really now?" His voice was deeper than you expected it to be. "Which brand would you suggest then?"
You tossed a specific brand to him. "This is the one I use. It lasts for a while."
He looked down. "Thanks." He held onto the box and paused for a second as you looked at him. Now this was an odd occurrence. This was usually the part where he pocketed the hair dye and left. Most people didn't try to start a conversation with him. And if they did, he'd usually give them a blank stare and walk away.
But even as the both of you looked at each other without saying anything, Dabi didn't want to leave. The run down convenient store seemed like only you and him were in it, and one sleepy, underpaid cashier that barely paid attention to their surroundings. It's why he liked the place in the first place, it was the easiest to steal from.
"I've seen you around here a few times. I'm (Y/n)," you finally cut the silence. "What's your name?"
Dabi wasn't ashamed of who he was. He was proud actually. But for some reason he didn't want to see you run off in horror and scream to alert the authorities. While it would be cute to see you scared, he didn't want to make a scene. It was already late at night, and he'd had a long day.
Not that you'd get very far if you did try, you looked weak.
Way too weak to be a hero or villain, which was surprisingly comforting for him. It wasn't exactly a bad thing, though. It was nice having a mundane conversation, brief as it's been.
"Touya," he said after a moment of contemplation. It's been a long time since he's used his dead name, but it's not like you've possibly heard of the "dead" Todoroki. He was swept under the rug years ago.
"Well, Touya, if you want any other suggestions, let me know."
A small chill ran down his spine, hearing you say his real name. Not with pity, not with anger. Calmly, like he was just a normal person just like you. He burned the thought.
He was still Dabi, he swore to himself. He didn't need a distraction. Even if the distraction was a pretty face with a calming voice.
"Yeah, thanks I guess." He decided to cut this off now, walking off. You watched him pocket the hair dye, grabbing a pack of cigarettes on the way out and putting it in his pocket as well.
You smiled. Every time he was in the store he grabbed the same few things. It was like a routine. Even though he pocketed it every time, you didn't mind. You always bought an extra item as a little compensation of what he stole.
This time, you stayed for an extra few minutes, wondering around the isles as you thought about the mysterious stranger. Touya's a nice name, you thought to yourself as you finally checked out. Maybe you'd just made a new friend. You hoped so.
As you walked out of the store, bag in hand, you didn't feel the eyes following your movements. Dabi's face lit up in the darkness, the tip of his finger glowing like a candle with a blue flame.
"(Y/n)," he drawled out your name while leaning against a tree, inhaling a puff of cigarette smoke. "I'll see you soon."

Professor Layton and the Spectre’s Call!! I actually discovered ordering the game from the UK with shipping was actually cheaper than ordering the American version of the game, there were no major differences that I could tell as they still had the original English voice actors.
I enjoyed this game!! Not my top favorite installment but I still had a great time and loved the new characters. The puzzles were well designed and had nice scaled difficulty and the mini games were really neat too. The Eternal Diva references were so blatant lmfao but I’m excited for Miracle Mask! I was also super exhausted when writing the summary so sorry there’s so many errors and I use the word fun a million times ToT
The Descole and Tea sticker are from JordyDrawsMerch! All other stickers are from Daiso. Writing typed below!

I love how animated the background now is!!
Beautiful music as always
Does Clark have the same VA as Dmitri lol
THE WORLD WILL END? Damn Luke
The specter looks like one of those little kingdom hearts guys
Luke’s been a LaytonMobile hater since day one lmao
Luke is especially funny in this game
Layton taking Luke to the black market is so wild
THE PUPPET PLAY IS ADORABLE
I’m going to fight aunt taffy
Ooo we get to play as Emmy
Holy shit Emmy
GIRL FROG
Emmy asking if Layton always pokes lamps he sees is making me think he physically touches everything the player taps
The convo with the meowing man???
CHELMEY AND BARTON

Woah the golden garden is beautiful
Ohh so that’s why Luke was fork life certified in plvspw
ZAMN T^T
THE WAY THE SPRITES WALK KILLS ME LOL
I really like these little episodes from others POVS! ^_^
Summary
This was such a fun origin story for Luke and Layton. Very much a classic Layton game with world ending machinery and gorgeous environment design. I really liked both Emmy and Descole, there’s a more serious undertone than with Don Paolo as the main villain (even though I do love Don Paolo). Emmy is amazing!! I was afraid she would be sidelined like Flora was but I’m glad to she stands her ground and does what she wants to do. I alos like how we got to go on our own adventure as her to London, she’s a character that doesn’t need to rely on Hershel to solve everything. Meeting Luke was great, loved his blank stare. It was fun seeing his origins and how Clark and Hershel knew each other. I’m curious how the prequels will play into the New World of Steam, especially now that Luke’s family have stories and sprites (unlike in the original trilogy). Loved the ACAB story, v nice to play while I’m still so mad at what’s happening to university students currently. Descole was so fun, I am obsessed with his outfit and personality. Unfortunately I was spoiled on who he is but I’m very excited to learn more. I think similar to Ace Attorney, the fourth installment is that last game in the classic 2D style, which is sad but PLvsPW makes me very hopeful about 3D Layton. The overall story was fun, I really liked the sub plot about the Ravens - that was really fun (i was so tired writing this omfg). I wish we got a little more backstory on the rich guy who died, I feel like there’s more to the story. OO I loved the little episodes, especially the one about Chelmey. They added a lot of fun context and gave more life to the NPCs. Such a fun and classic Layton game, I can’t wait to play Miracle Mask! (And read the light novels). This wasn’t my favorite Layton game but I still really loved it and had a great time and loved the puzzles — that’s all I want from PL!

ngl i sometimes forgot that hero, villain, sidekick, etc. in the hero x villain snippets/prompts aren't their own characters but rather a "imagine your ocs/otp" type of thing like. wym im supposed to imagine Henchman and Right Hand as a character that isn't. them if that make sense ⁉️⁉️ -🐏
Mmmmm kinda?
Personally when I write snippets I don’t think of any OCs of mine and I just make up their personalities/backgrounds as I go. So, in a sense they’re their own characters.
However, they don’t have names, genders nor do they have a proper character arc which doesn’t really make them their own characters either.
I think that makes this community so interesting: the writing is vague enough to give the reader their own ideas/inspiration but is also most of the time too specific to fit any OCs or OTPs.
It’s quite interesting, don’t ya think?

the atlas paradox after thoughts
{SPOILERS}
- callum is so broken and i think hes such an interesting character to analyze. like the thoughts of 'if you could feel everyones emotions all the time, you would have to shut off your own or you would fucking shatter'
-tristan needs to get his shit together ngl
- NICO AND GIDEON FINALLY
- hc libby is a lesbian and belen deserved better
- libby is imo the most cruel and manipulative person of the six. it was true in the first book its true now
- tho we love a corruption arc
- ngl kinda hope ezra lives. like did he do shitty things? yes. should you kidnap ur ex to 'save the world'? probably not. did i disagree with some of his philosophy and reasonings.... next question. also the fact that i think that that interaction would be really fucking fascinating. (i just want to have him and atlas yell at eachother more so i can critique their relationship more)
- parisa is and always will be the queen of my heart. i want more callum and parisa moments im the next book because i think theyre so similar and seeing their banter cracks me up
- if libby and tristan end up together i will literally cry and throw up and shit my pants in rage they are AWFUL together.
- belen deserved better pt 2
- i think reina didnt do much this book (other than possibly draft a damn pantheon) so im hoping we see her research come to fruition in the next book
- suddenly i love dalton? like him and parisa burning it to the ground? mania? madness? im living for it
-callum x tristan supremacy. they remind me of those broken plates that you mend with gold and they become more beautiful
- does anyone remember all the shit callum said about the 6 in the first book?
"Libby Rhodes was an anxious impending meltdown whose decisions were based entirely on what she had allowed the world to shape her into. She was more powerful than all of them except for Nico, and of course she was. Because that was her curse: regardless of how much power she possessed, she lacked the dauntlessness to misuse it. She was too small-minded, too un-hungry for that. Too trapped within the cage of her own fears, her desires to be liked. The day she woke up and realized she could make her own world would be a dangerous one, but it was so unlikely it hardly kelt Callum up at night." (301)
"'Parisa is dangerous. She is angry," he clarified. "She is furious, vindictive, spiteful, naturally misanthropic. If she had Libby's power, or Nico's, she would have destroyed what remains of society by now...[she's here] to find a way to do it...Destroy things. The world possibly. Or control it. Whatever option suits her when she find it"'(305)
"Libby was a hero. Parisa was a villain. They would both be disappointed in the end." (300)
the way that all of this is being brought up again in TAP is beautiful
- callum is on his way to some sort of redemption/selfless arc i can TASTE IT and i crave it.
- everyone is hot. all the time. it hurts me
- blake is great at gaslighting me into making me think i understand any of the mathematic scientific bs they talk about at any given time
- theyre all so broken and in need of therapy
- i want callum to verbally destroy adrian caine
- i want all of them to succeed in their funky lil goals and become gods (except libby)
- speaking of libby- i think shed be a great villain
anyways. this series? owns my mf ass

Ok but can we quickly remember how in Empires S1 Pearl fought a demon for FUN???? FOR FUN. LIKE- GIRLYPOP- MAN I LOVED HER CHAOTIC ENERGY SO MUCH- pretty sure that's when she became my favorite lol-
You have no idea how much I wished for S1Pearl to have a chaotic evil arc- I even had an idea where in S2 instead of being yk, a GOD APPARENTLY??? GIRLY SLAYED SO HARD SHE BECAME A LITERAL CELESTIAL BEING???
Like in my head, I just have this, corrupted Pearl in mind, cause, think about it. I would have NOT need surprised if she joined Xornoth in S1 just for the thrill. Like just to cause so chaos. Ofc she didn't but like??? The opportunity was there.
Also also, imagine if instead of actually dying, she kinda got reincarnated? Like instead of becoming a Goddes she just rose up like a phoenix??? But a whitered one??? That would seek revenge on Sausage for causing her demise when he connected her to her land????? Hello???? Like it would have been such a funky interaction NGL. Imagine if the God thing was still there, so Sausage did keep her memory alive as the form of a Goddess, but INSTEAD of a Goddess of like, harvest (I like forgot what she is about cuz NGL, she gives me so much Athena and Artemis vibes mixed up with some Demeter) she was like a being of Chaos and nightmares?? Like hello?? Corrupted Pearl arc when??? (This is all said in a light hearted way DW)
Anyway.
The fact that when I make funky "what if" in my head, I never know if Pearl should be a hero or a villain, cause like, love her vibes, but she's honestly the embodiment of chaotic neutral so.. like I was thinking of a Star wars au, (that I'm never gonna make seriously) and I was thinking about her arc, which would probably be something like, Padawan, then boom gets left behind, sith, then boom, fuck that, gray Jedi (don't come for me ik gray jedis aren't canon but wtf am I supposed to call her??) So like, blue lightsaber to red to white.
I have no idea how this post got to Star Wars honestly.
But at his point you all should be used to my posts not making any logical sense whatsoever.

Ask Game: Jason Todd, #2 and #8
Thank you for the ask anon!
2. Favorite canon thing about this character?
I'm ngl, since reading stuff outside the New 52 I've kinda stopped liking Jason... however, I do appreciate what he represents. Speaking in terms of symbols, Jason is a powerful one. In Under the Red Hood especially, he essentially poses a trolley problem to Bruce- kill the Joker, or do nothing and let hundreds other die. He's a criticism of Bruce's own inaction, and a criticism of the general comic book trope of "it doesn't matter who wins, the heroes and villains will always fight again". I'm not saying that Batman should kill the Joker, honestly I think that one of the more appealing parts of him is that he doesn't kill, that he doesn't play judge jury and executioner, but having a character who opposes that worldview is neat.
Buuut from a less conceptual standpoint, I do like the theme of reclaiming his death. Taking Joker's old pseudonym, using crowbars as his choice of weapon, that's neat.
8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?
Giving him other characters' personalities... look, all I'm saying is that Jason Todd is not DC's drug-awareness father figure, that's Roy. And he's also not Gotham's street-level protector, savior of the poor... that title would fit Selina and/or Helena way better.

Prediction time for TWST Chapter 7 Book 3!! *SPOILERS*
Tumblr media
So y’know how in the ending of Chapter 7 Book 2, Malleus Overblots & covers the entire Sage Island with Vines???
And you know how in the very end we end up being covered in thorny vines??
You know how the only other time we see those vines are when we’re trying to obtain cards and groovies?
So bare with me:
My theory is that we’re going to be transported to a dreamscape that Malleus has created for everyone to act as a “hero” in their own stories.
And as a result of Malleus putting everyone in this wrapped illusion, everyone in the dreamscape will become someone that they always envisioned themselves to be.
For example: Vil as a child actor had a really hard time trying to fit into a “hero” role in filming because he was overshadowed constantly by Neige. And because he was always casted as a villain for movie roles, he was always either mocked or bullied by other children his age because of his cast role; which would eventually result in him developing a hate towards Neige and wanting to outshine him. To put it bluntly, he wants to be “The Fairest One of All”.
So when Vil is now in this dreamscape that Malleus had created, he will now act like a “Hero” in his own story.
How do I think this will this play out?
Well, the idea is that when the characters are now in Malleus’ fantasy world, the TWST cast would most likely have developed some sort of amensia which would make them forget about who they are in the real world.
So quite frankly, no body would have any recollection of who they were before Malleus put them in a thousand year sleep.
And what would the world look like?
Personally, I think it would be really cool if we had brought back the Overblots. And it would be really interesting to see the main crew that overblot reinacted themes and plot lines from their original Disney stories. The only thing that I think would different would be that the dreamscape would litterally just be a copy & paste version of the Disney films, but in one chaotic mesh.
That’s an interesting concept right?
Let’s take this into consideration:
Do you remember how Crowley gifted Yuu with the Ghost Camera?
And do you remember how the ghost camera LITTERALLY has not been brought up at anytime other than the first few chapters of the game? (With the exception of the Halloween event where Yuu is taking photos.)
WELL-
Most people have pretty much theorized (and I believe it’s been confirmed but if I’m wrong lmk!) that the cards we collect in the game are actually photos Yuu has taken on their camera. Which is a pretty wholesome thing ngl-
ANYWAYS.
Let’s say that Yuu wakes up in Malleus’ idealic world trying to find their friends (ADeuce, Grim etc.) only to realize that no body remembers them OR what happened and the TWST cast are playing into positions they always envisioned themselves to be.
And the only way they’re able to gain any memory of Yuu or their lives as students would be to show them the photos they have taken on the Ghost Camera.
(Also, fun note: someone on Twitter made a comment on how the items you collect like the Awakening Perfume and other gameplay elements could potentially foreshadow Chapter 7. If I come across that post again I will link it!)
And you know how when you GROOVY a card, vines litterally uncover the frame to reveal the picture and what could essentially be a core memory? Like the photo was blocked unless you had certain items to unlock the GROOVY?
What if that was Malleus’ Magic that were originally blocking the photos of the character’s real identities? As if Malleus didn’t want anyone to know who they were in the real world?
Or y’know I could be wrong lol.
This was kinda just a complex theory that I had developed while rereading some posts on Twitter.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around how Mickey could be tied into the theory but unfortunately my brain is going numb 🫠
Feel free to share some of your theories!!
Even if this was wrong, I’d like to call this the Dreamscape AU lolol
Theory a Nutshell: Malleus puts everyone in a false reality where they’re either their overblotted selves or an alternate version and the only way Yuu can save them is using their Ghost Camera to bring back their memories.

ok ok last one for the day.
katsuki and izuku midoriya are the hottest couple in pro hero hollywood. or they would be if they would stop fucking with people in public.
like yeah, they're everybody's dream guys, but instead seeing them as dreams, they're constantly prancing around being the japanese equivalents of martin freeman and anthony mackie.
reporter: so deku can you tell us why it took you so long to apprehend the vilain this morning?
deku: well we chased him so hard that he ate shit and after catching him me and kacchan spent 37 minutes and 43 seconds laughing in his face.
reporter: *so done with these fucking losers* thank you, deku. please keep doing your best.
deku: *literally smiling like a ray of light* of course!
bakugou: *just coming back from chatting with cops* did you tell the dude how that extra ate shit.
reporter, while deku and bakugou start dying laughing again: *tiredly* this has been the news.
i don’t necessarily ship them but this is funny LMAO
like separately— reporters and everyone in PR like them just fine. bakugou? he definitely had a colorful vocabulary, but hey, when reporters ask him the really interesting questions, he’ll deliver on the answers. (but ngl getting interesting questions from reporters are rare for bakugou since reporters kinda ask him the same (ex: you took down that villain today, yes? you were in top speed, did you break your record in villain takedowns?) but again i kinda don’t blame him that man is something else 😭 /lh)
as for izuku, he’s either a heaven sent or kind of a mess 💀 again, the reporters like him more than bakugou because of how nice and sunshine-y he is. it’s definitely a nice break from getting lambasted /hj
(at the same time, he’s so authentic it hurts 😨 and i mean it in the way that he’ll give a really detailed answer in such a short amount of time AND sometimes he’ll go off track but its okay because he’s the number 1 hero, right 😃 but it’s still kind of hell for reporters because they gotta think of a quick and witty response 😭 poor them sometimes 💀)
but put those two together 😭 romantically or platonically— they’d be every reporter’s (and also every pr employee’s) worse nightmare because 😭😭 they’re a mess together whether they realize it or not and even when they do realize it it kinda gets messier but hey! the memes
like there’s this one comic i saw of izuku giving a response in an interview and bakugou just runs into the frame and screams at him randomly— and izuku laughs, being alarmed 😭 (it was also based off an actual interview, though idk which one ☹️💀) and i think that’s pretty accurate. they’re so chaotic in media.
but this is absolute hell when they actually need to be professional and serious 💀 both of their pr teams are always this 🤏 close to just crying on the floor that one midsommar scene style every time they’re supposed to be giving a professional-yet-authentic response to reporters, and even press conferences because it’s almost impossible when those two are in the same frame istg

So about them Season 2 SF6 Leaks
If you’re curious what the leak is, it can be seen here:
https://x.com/daryo1989/status/1769861372740042895?s=46&t=iEGeYIIN_aP028wRnoVcUQ
There were a mixture of reactions for this. The people who main those characters are happy while everyone else, which I think it’s the majority, were really upset. The leaker is supposedly Vergeben, who actually had a hit or miss record in leaking info. But his leak for the SF6 season 1 characters was almost 100% accurate, down to “Cammy wearing pants.” To me, if there’s a short written description of the characters’ appearance, they tend to be true as oppose to just naming the characters. But I read that this Vergeben may be an imposter because that’s not his real Reddit account. His real account is DasVergeben while the most recent one is shinvergeben. But the DasVergeben account hadn’t posted anything in the past 2 years, so who knows if shinvergeben is the same guy or not, but created a new Reddit account.
Ngl, when I saw the list, I was kinda sad. F.A.N.G’s purpose in Street Fighter 6 is to revive Bison and Shadaloo. This was known since the TOXICITY story was released in 2018. I’d like to see how his revival journey would unfold in his Arcade or World Tour Mode because it sounds like a compelling character story. But if Bison comes back as a DLC before a playable F.A.N.G, that could mean FANG’s moment to shine in SF6 would become unlikely because his goal had already been met, so what’s the point. Sure, we might see FANG’s revival journey through Bison’s story, but it would be much better if it was through a playable FANG. It would give more meaning and significance to his story. Alas, I guess I’ll just accept FANG as an NPC for the entirety of SF6. FANG would be happy for Bison’s return, at least. But I’d still be salty that Capcom decided to steal FANG’s thunder. It would be nice if both FANG and Bison were to some back to SF6 in the same season…preferably FANG coming before Bison. Oh well. Dee Jay and Ed spoiled me so much because they proved that characters don’t have to be super popular in order to come back to a Street Fighter game.
Anyway enough of my rant. Regardless if the leaker source is true or false, I personally believe the Bison part is true. Back many months ago in October, I found unused voice clips for F.A.N.G. I had a feeling they’ll eventually be used in a later dlc. At first I thought they would be heard in the Ed DLC, but that didn’t happen. So I have a feeling they would be used in the Bison DLC instead. F.A.N.G did say Bison’s name twice in unknown contexts, and they were not heard during the AKI dlc. I’m assuming he either thinks about Bison or he finally sees Bison alive again. You can listen to extracted unused voice audio here, starting at 0:39 :
youtube
Now I have my own thoughts on what may happen during the Bison DLC. Based on the voice lines above, I think the avatar would be helping F.A.N.G in finding resources to revive Bison and Shadaloo. Unused lines like “You have my gratitude” and “Splendid job” sounds like you’re doing some tasks for him. I did mentioned about this in an older post:
If the avatar is indeed helping F.A.N.G revive Bison, then the avatar is both hero and villain!

always gonna be disappointed in mlb messing up their execution of core concepts/tropes (whether they intended to have them or not) of both the magical girl genre and the superhero genre. just like, secret identities are THE Big Thing in superhero based things (well, it usually is, sometimes it's not (e.g. Marvel Avengers)) and it's always "i can't put my loved ones in danger because my enemies will surely target them!" and all that other angst potential stuff. and they do "secret identites are super important!" with LB and CN kinda but canon to the temp heroes is just like? lmao whomst? safety? to the people who were heroes whose identities were exposed? even after it's been shown twice that hawkmoth could get them and their families at any given moment? (ngl, he really should be doing that more, if he was gonna be villain you might as well keep going with attacking their families. if this wasn't a kids show and was like an actual superhero comic book series then those people would def be dead)
Yeah like.
The 'Your identity is important so you can't be a Hero anymore' rule applies exclusively to Chloé.
The 'No one ever can know your identity' applies exclusively to Adrien. (not even Mari because she told Alya).

RWBY v9 spoilers below the cut:
- Loving Daymond/Curious Cat
Yang staring at Blake? Yes, please xD
Tumblr media
Will always love how Blake’s ears go full perked whenever Yang talks xD
Tumblr media
Blake’s failing at keeping eyes off her gf still going xD
Tumblr media
- Love the meta nudge about Ciel
- ngl kinda like the Herbalist xD
- Love the introspective-ness of things, not to mention it bringing up so many things that certain types have acted like were forgotten. Blake being the bridge between faunus and humans; Yang’s feelings about her arm; and Weiss’s grappling with her family’s history.
- All of the speeches are great but having done a rewatch of Ice Queendom and seeing Nicholas: Weiss’s “I am the granddaughter of a hero and a child of a villain” hits a particular emotional chord.
- So curious to find out if the hole is what I suspect in being a punishment to those who don’t do their purpose.
