astraphobia, but like part two and they’re together and have had an argument but Maverick doesn’t care because he knows Ice is scared of storms and he will just.. come to bed to hold him while it passes overhead.

#yes they’ve just had an argument yes mav is on the sofa but as soon as he heard that first crack of lightning…. #he no longer cares about that argument and goes up the stairs and in bed just because he kNOws Ice is so scared of them #and he’s not one to leave him alone and scared for the whole night.. now is he ?😭 #and it might have taken almost six hours over a week but. its DONE and I love how it looks so its all a win #ms tg #ms art #icemav #pete maverick mitchell #tom iceman kazansky #top gun #top gun fanart

I don’t think people realize how freaked out fanfic readers get when their favorite author(s) doesn’t update their ongoing schedule ON TIME.

And it’s not cause we want the chapter…it’s cause we’re so fucking worried about the Author.

Like— OMG ARE YOU OKAY? YOU’VE BEEN GIVING US THE TRAGIC UPDATES OF YOUR LIFE IN THE NOTES THE PAST 10 CHAPTERS?! WHY STOP? ARE YOU DEAD? DID YOU GET STUCK IN THE WALL LIKE YOUR CAT?? HAVE YOU EATEN?? HAS YOUR BRAIN EXPLODED??

Readers no longer care about the story when they don’t get their usual update. We panic and flag S.O.S as we track down our wayward author who has been both blessed by the universe with a creative mind and cursed all the same with the worst luck.

So any authors who are reading this please understand— when we comment “hey are you okay?” in your comments. No, we are not asking about the chapter.

We are legitimately concerned for your wellbeing. Do not force yourself to shit out a chapter just to appease other ppl when you yourself are not in the mental state to enjoy it or even write it to begin with.

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF DAMMIT

Another thing about seeing David Tennant perform is that no matter where you sit in the room, he will make eye contact with you or at least look in your direction at least once during the play. And it’s all done so organically like of course the performance comes first it’s not like it looks like he’s looking around trying to make a connection with everyone but it’s been built into the staging/blocking/acting beats. His big brown eyes are like doesn’t matter where you sit man I’m gonna find you, I’m gonna make you feel like you’re in this with me

#@ all the people talking in the bathroom talking about how they’ve seen everything he’s done live since hamlet #please know that I actually fantasized about beating you with sticks #macbeth

in the mood to see them in my hoodie and nothing else while lazing around all day

#unimportant thoughts #wardrobe stealing #like full goblin mode #All they’ve done all day is get high and eat cheetos and play videogames or something #I don’t know as long as they’re in my hoodie id still probably think it’s cute

growing up is realizing you don’t hate anyone in lees group

it’s just a bunch of f-cked up people

forced together in a f-cked up situation

not to mention WITH CHILDREN

#why I think twdg series should’ve ended at the first season #I’m sorry if all of em just died and only clementine was alive and left with omid and Christa as it leaves you on a cliffhanger #is perfect #I just love it #am I just salty about season 2……yes.. #I hate how they bring back characters for nostalgia #it just feels stupid especially since they don’t know how to write them anymore #just let em die and stay dead #my stuffy stuff #twdg #opinions #unpopular opinion #maybe #also imagining where everyone in the first group is alive and well is nice #and they interact with the other seasons groups #it’s cute #oh I feel like I should say I’m a twdg kids apologist #they’ve all done nothing wrong

everyday i log onto the internet i am forced to fisticuffs combat the halbarry default yaoi allegations. THEY’RE NOT A BASIC BRUNETTE/BLONDE JOCK/NERD DYNAMIC THEY’RE MORE THAN THAT (coping)

#i can’t talk to certain dc fans some of them are too immersed in fan conversation that they lose their fresh perspective #yk krillers doesn’t know anything abt superheroes and actually told me that they thought halbarry were the opposite #bc hal’s got that plane autism and barry is basically a track star #and i think that is far more enlightened than some of the stuff i see in my peripherals #but they can’t be reduced to fanfic tropes like that either way… they are special… TO ME #it’s just wild to me that i’ll see 2013-style yaoi fanart in 2023 #they’re not twinks!!! they’re not twinks and they’re not seme/uke substitutes!!! #i think a good rule of thumb is that most of their dynamic goes both ways #<- not referring to seme/uke but that too ig (does not know which word means what) #but you’ll especially notice this in older vs newer iterations of their relationship #does ‘i won’t let you get lost to the speedforce. don’t let me get lost in the stars’ mean NOTHING to you ?! #they’ve done it all! #older hal used to be the one to reach out and bridge their early friendship while barry was the stick in the mud #and newer hal struggles to adapt to barry’s way of friendship while barry is the one to usually initiate their bonding #also i love hal annoying barry bc that is honest to god his love language #but i never see the reverse in fanworks? #ig bc barry’s way of being annoying is more understated but it’s still pretty egregious #hal is annoying bc he likes attention barry is annoying bc he likes to see hal’s reaction #thank god they have each other so they can (relatively) contain their annoyingness to themselves 💚 #except the pda is rly just shameless. why are they always all over each other in front of the justice league. #i’m not even rly complaining anymore i’m honestly just waxing poetic abt their relationship #they have a sedating quality abt them (when they’re not riling me up in a fit of passion) #halbarry #the flash #green lantern #barry allen #hal jordan #dc #danbles

Really surprised that after all these years, FEH hasn’t decided to give Ike a summer alt despite him being a really popular character and being an easy choice for fanservice, but that hasn’t happened at all

Another big mention being Hector but I guess they just want women

#yeyarants #fire emblem #feh #fire emblem heroes #ike fire emblem #Ike #hector fire emblem #Hector #like hello? #really easy choice to make #people will actually waste money for that #I’ll be one of those #but ike is a really popular character but I guess they’ve decided not to? #give him a summer alt dude #heck even soren #but it would be a really cute one of Titania mist ike and soren #I know they’ve done one before with all of them but I can dream #also Jugdral characters #where are the Jugdral alts #I need more #come on feh #hector needs one too #we need more man for summer alts #Ephraim was a big one that I remember #CHROM TOO OMG #and Lucina #damn they missing like really fan faves for summer alts #I know they got a bajillion alts but it’s the only one I would want #please feh #there’s the three houses characters but eh

help i forgot to share my insane spending on comms within the past month and a half

#jean’s isn’t done yet but that was like an unfinished piece that they didn’t care for so I snatched it with a big smile #I have other orders like uhhh roachgore and thatskidding eventually but like yeah I have many many many many many #these were all from mutuals so i am forever grateful i pay in embarrassment and out of love #it’s super EMBARRASSING😭comm ppl who Don’t know ososan so i just go to mutuals atp bc they’ve been exposed to whatever this ship is #i will get these as keychains very soon i have a problem but that’s okay i have money so im happy #every single time I commission someone osoaini I just say surprise me atp i just wanna see what ur brain thinks

lately ive been crying like a tall child. etc. if you even care

#um does anyone want to rant about the tams fire siblings because they are driving me genuinely crazy #the way azula - despite being grown and distanced enough from ozai to know it was wrong - still views her 9 year old self as her ‘peak’ #while zuko views the age he was at when they left as his lowest point #and they’re both trying to get towards and away those respective identities #any reminder that azula isn’t the girl she was is met with discomfort from her #just as any situation that makes him feel unsettled/unsafe/belittled instantly puts zuko into his 11 y/o mindset #like so much has happened and diverted from canon yet here they still are #those children are still living and kicking within them despite all they’ve done to have ‘zuko’ and ‘azula’ erased #there’s just sooooo much to them but I really liked this from the latest chapter #bc this chapter was supposed to really show how all the little crumbs I’ve put into their characters so far #come together to create two surprisingly opposing mindsets #and this is a key factor of that and this treatment of their past becomes VERY prevalent #twice as many stars #oh on the topic of tams please if ur gonna listen to any song off the playlist pls let it be come by adrienne lenker #like I’m crying about it actually

Always will fill me with rage when white Ppl make hcs or fics about their white faves saving Duke cass or Damian from racism (or cass saving herself with a punch and no genuine emotion about it bc she’s a Girlboss 😝 😆) and then they demonize Damian 24/7 only say ‘Duke is on day shift’ in their fics or literally have cass as some walking talking fighting doll that teases her brothers sometimes. Like it’s genuinely y’all don’t think it’s racism unless it’s a slur. Can’t tell me what internal or implicit bias or even what a microagression is and u wanna talk on racism.

#shame on the black folk eating it the fuck up too #actually this is why kills me about white ppl in fandom #like we know black Ppl cant escape internal racism so what makes YALL think ur cracker asses dodged the racism beam #and that none of ur thoughts or opinions on these characters are impacted by race at all simply bc u don’t say ‘bc they’re X race’ at the #end of every sentence? #like i could draw a connection between this inability to think critically about how ur own racial bias fucks everyone around u over #and how the only flaws y’all project onto ur faves is communicating badly or being too nice without a care for how the shit they do #might impact anything #i Might later actually #i promise it makes sense mutuals let me cook 🙏🏾 #there is a line between the only flaws for Tim jason and dick being ‘bad at feelings :(‘ to them and their own inability to face #accountability or acknowledge the heinous shit they’ve done irl #the they in the last part of the sentence being yt folk yall get it

i don’t know if this is a hot take or not but the rr/b skew more neutral than evil to me

#at least when they’re just on their own and not actively following the orders of grown-ass lunatics #they could objectively be doing worse #but the way they’re written they’re just really obviously kids with no actual guidance trying to have fun #the most actively evil thing they’ve done is pay lip service to destroying the power/puff girls sometimes #and then just never really. attempt it? #and i’m comparing this to the ppnkg who actually Are evil #arguably Also because of the way they’re raised but still #their actions lean more actively dangerously malicious than an annoying child with powers spiting you because you happened to buy a soda #all of this to say i just don’t buy when people refer to them as irredeemable or naturally immoral or anything #i think they’re naturally *mischevious* but as far as them maturing/the possibility of being rehabilitated #realistically they could truly go either way #this isn’t really a response to any particular takes i’ve seen though i’m just rambling #bubble journal #i know a lot of people don’t like that about them and want them to be more threatening #i personally like it a lot though i mean it’s definitely how I would’ve written characters like them i think #and i think making them shittier would just turn them into full ppnkg clones #and it would also make less sense for the girls to even let them keep living if they were full-on horrible constantly #like . kill them!?!?!!?!?!? are you nuts!!!?!!!!!!?!? #that’s like an av3ngers level threat you’re letting run around town

am i the only one who feels like alex(the world ender guy) was kind of a missed oportunity in vide noir? like, he was set up by johnnie to be a badass gang leader just for him to never even appear in the end, we just got a close up to his face scar

i feel like buck's encounter with the psychic would've been way more powerful if it was alex instead. its implied that johnnie and moonbeam had a relationship ig, but its barely even hinted at, and he never even mentions her. but with johnnie and alex, johnnie actually mentions him and speaks highly of his brother, and says alex will help buck if he sees the red cloth that belonged to johnnie

the fact that all that build up led to buck not even TALKING to alex kinda irks me. imagine how much better the payoff would be if alex had received the cloth instead of moonbeam? if we had seen his reaction to johnnie's death? if he would've helped buck like johnnie said he would? if we saw what johnnie implied alex would do to the guys who black brained his brother? idk man i think we were robbed

im new to the fanbase, so im gonna be very embarassed if this is a topic that already came up here LOLL but i still wanted to get it off my chest💀sry if this ask is messy, i suck at writing down my thoughts lmao

No I gotta agree on that. Like I LOVED seeing Moonbeam and getting know her as her and having all this new information about her (her being part of the World Enders is still wild to me and I love it) and it’s a good scene and all, but I’m still confused as to why they built up Alex so much, especially since this is the first time we’re hearing about him, and he never even got the chance to speak. If it were Dale I’d be a bit more understanding as we know him already (tho not by much cause I would have loved to see more of Dale). But it’s Alex, whose not only the leader of the World Enders but also Johnnie’s (and Dale’s) brother. I would’ve have loved to, you know, actually meet the guy. Especially with how much build up he got. And I GET IT Lord Huron’s lore is meant to be weird and vague and hard to pin down but like. Didn’t need to tease me like that come on

The only reason I could think of was maybe they needed to get Buck on his own again? Like having this the beginning of a war between the World Enders and Z’Oieasu shown or having Buck work with them consistently might have thrown off the tone. It is supposed to be Buck’s story and his own descent into madness. The whole album has this isolated vibe to me, like being alone in a city of people Hard to get that when there’s other people around, especially a group as lively as the world enders. Or maybe they just wanted to include Moonbeam back into the story again lol

GOD I would have loved to see Moonbeam’s scene with Buck done with Alex. I can only imagine how that scene would’ve played out and his reaction to Johnnie’s death. Contrasting Buck’s scene with Johnnie with Alex’s own personality, the possible dynamics, the anger and grief that could arise…..ough

#thanks anon now you’ve given me the urge to write that scene. how am I supposed to do a character that doesn’t even have A SINGLE LINE /lh #I’m already struggling to characterize Dale how am I supposed to do Alex. why would you do this to me /lh #seriously tho I wish we got more of Alex. or anything or Alex tbh #I wanna know more about him #Alex Redmayne who are you….. #it’s also possible they were originally going to include a scene with him but it got cut/changed for whatever reason #tho honestly I think moonbeam was always gonna come back into the story in some sense due to the song #my own personal theory (thanks to the clip in POTU) is that Buck and Moonbeam were supposed to have something going on but it got cut #mostly cause the dynamic in the clip is way different from the one they’ve got in the movie #but idk I’m glad they didn’t force a romance at least. imo they didn’t really have romantic chemistry in that second scene. at all #whether that’s due to rewrites or just a decision to cut it I don’t know. I don’t think it would’ve fit the story anyway #i could be wrong tho so take my theorizing with a grain of salt #however it is very funny that one character with a love song that has all the hallmark’s of Buck’s writing isn’t probably done by him lol #esp since he’s got chemistry with the other characters. women hate him ghosts want him /j #dani speaks #ask #asks #lord huron
