#in squad we trust

[shannonsketches]

The way I will simply never recover from this page:

Vegeta's Panic and then IMMEDIATE affection for his new baby

Vegeta being excited to have a daughter

Goku assuming his wife Magic'd their children out of herself

Supreme Kai being embarrassed for Goku

Beerus getting wasted

Bulma saying she will raw dog her husband frequently and expeditiously with her whole chest, in front of god and everybody

Whis being like 'i gotchu babe 💅 but i gotta borrow ur man first or there'll be no more boning for anybody lol'

#i have tried to watch the anime and it is just so SO far off course I can't do it I can't stomach that shit anymore lol #it's not even the same series it's like a team of guys going 'be vigilant guys goku can't be funny or interesting under any circumstances' #'Make sure nobody gets a personality outside of their Token Trope we don't want to have to trust our audience at all got it??' #this anime did toriyama's writing so dIRTYYYY LOL no WONDER he didn't watch the anime for his shows it's BAD out here #i'm being a hater i'm sorry but the anime is SO AFRAID of Goku having flaws and the manga really is just CHOICE #especially if you're a vegebul stan they're so solid they're so quietly and comfortably in love #the anime is just tsundere'ing him through his dad era for some reason even though he and Bulma are fully the Squad Parents in the manga #Piccolo is Team Grandpa and we stan an icon #Vegeta had one (1) Reaction to PDA and then Did His Best to navigate it and Try -- and the next time we see Bulma she's pregnant lmao

So I met this person who said "if only his (Tony's) dad was ever actually developed to be actually abusive" and that's bullshit. Howard clearly abused Tony in a lot of ways- emotionally, mentally, physically.

He made Tony drink alcohol when Tony was a literal child, told him he had to be a man. That's how Tony's drinking problem started. Howard forcing a child, his own child, to drink. He told him that drinking will put hair on his chest, and that he had to stop being a sissy. He hit Tony when he saw him playing with toys. He physically abused him for acting his age. Because of Howard, Tony stopped playing with toys. There were only weapons. Tony literally promised him "No toys, just weapons."

In the comics, Howard literally tried to sell Tony to Dracula in exchange of immortality. He died, became a demon and tried to kill his own son in hell. And people are still saying that he tried his best to be a dad and that he failed? My friend, he didn't even try a little. Imagine being that ignorant.

And no, MCU Howard isn't better. Howard literally scarred Tony for his whole life. He didn't let him be a child. He wanted him to be another version of himself. Iron Man 2 tried to show Howard as a good man by making him say "You were my greatest creation" and that was full of shit. First of all, he didn't even try to show Tony that he appreciated him even just a little bit. That man didn't even bothered to tell Tony he loved him even once. And then he recorded himself saying that? You gotta try a little harder if you want your son to think better of you, Howard. Also, saying that your own son is your greatest creation is weird. Tony is his own person. He isn't a machine that Howard made, that man doesn't own him.

Avengers Endgame also tried to make Howard look better and that made me sick. That was awful. Endgame was so bad for that. Tony hugged his abuser, forgave him, and literally thanked him for everything.

Russo brothers, what the hell? What did Tony thank Howard for, exactly? Ignoring him? Starting his drinking problem? Hitting him? Abusing him verbally? Physically? Not letting him be a child for once? Are those the things Tony thanked Howard for?

And don't even get me started on "The kid's not even here yet, and there's nothing I wouldn't do for him." Everything about this sentence is awful. Horrible. Disgusting. Makes me sick. You know why? Because that is a way of saying Tony is the one to blame.

Knowing how Howard treated Tony, this literally means Tony is the one who failed to meet Howard's expectations. Tony's the one who's at fault for the way how Howard abused him. Because he wasn't good enough. Because he wasn't what Howard wanted him to be. If Tony was what Howard expected, Howard wouldn't be so bad with him. But Tony disappointed him, so Howard gave up on him. That's literally what that sentence means. Tony's playing the victim. He's being ungrateful to his dad. Howard's not wrong for the way how he raised Tony, Tony should've known better.

Did you know that Tony, as a fourteen years old child, was so traumatized to the point he built something he called "Stark City"? He built that as an apology to his father. And you know what he was trying to apologize for? Living. He tried to apologize Howard for living and Howard didn't even see it.

Imagine the feeling. Imagine the way how he felt his whole childhood. Abused. Ignored. Depressed. Maybe even suicidal, since he literally regretted being born as a fourteen years old. But yeah, only if Howard was actually developed to be an abusive father.

Fuck you, Russo brothers. Fuck you, Howard apologists.

Why why why do we still not know when crosshairs chip got removed

I'm so sure it's after s1 ep8/9

But I like the idea the empire told crosshair it was removed but in reality it's still in his head but it broke after the injury. And that it's unable to be removed properly because of the injury. Like if they tried to remove it it would kill him

So much angst potential there

#like the empire was like #well shit we cant enhance his chip anymore what should we do #oh he just got a massive head injury that was semi caused by his former squad #lets convince him that his brothers left him for dead and that he should remain loyal to the empire #well tell him we even removed his chip so that hell want to trust us more #who cares if chip still being in his unproperly treated wound will probably give him massive headaches lol #bad batch #crosshair #crosshair bad batch #the bad batch crosshair #the bad batch #tbb speculation

Guys. Guys I think in our search for a dad figure in media we all forgot that Ken has like. Never been that great to begin with.

Like he's not evil he's not a bad father nor he is a bad person and he definitely does have good intentions. However if you don't think letting a distressed teen vent to you in despair while you secretly put him on a phone with his partner who you know he has mixed feelings about & just broke up with when you're in a position of trust isn't even a little bit shitty and sus think again.

#project sekai #prsk #ken shiraishi #vivid bad squad #vbs #did it work out? yes did he have a good reason and correctly guessed it was a misunderstanding? also yes #but what if he didn't? what if those characters weren't the ones we have? #that is a betrayal of trust on some level that's never addressed in game because tbh it would make sense akitoya would be either grateful #or move on from that really quickly because it went the way it did #but ultimately it was Ken being selfish because he saw potential in Bad Dogs and didn't want them to break up/Touya to leave and #decided to meddle in things he KNOWS he shouldn't have (since why he leaves immediately Akito arrives which ig credit where credit's due) #the rough equivalent of this would be you breaking up with your SO #and a barista at a coffee shop you both used to frequent deciding to match make you back together bc they thought you looked cute #that it at the VERY least morally dubious why are we surprised at Ken acting the way he does now

Just read Kick It Up a Notch and while the event's story was good why did it do the thing that a good chunk of VBS stories do (especially the more recent ones since Walk On and On) of just dragging the fuck on certain points 😭

Project Sekai's pacing is overall pretty great considering how story heavy and extensive it is! With Leo/Need and Nightcord being perfectly paced and WxS and MMJ having minor yet negligible hiccups but then Vivid Bad Squad's is just all over the place?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying their story is bad (trust me they do have banger,good paced stories and I'm excited for the heartbreaking plot twist coming up in June) but some of them just drag on for far too long

For example, Toya getting inspiration from the hospital guy is interesting but it loses it's appeal when it feels like 75% is focused on him and not Toya making music (and later getting to appreciate his bond with Akito) which was supposed to be the plot of the event??

And also the aforementioned recent Kohane event with the middle just feeling like meandering to have the ending randomly feel like her version of Vivid Old Tale minus the nostalgic undertone turned sad by more recent info and the much better pacing that event had

I have more examples of this but I don't want make this rant(?) much longer but TLDR vbs please stop making parts of your events go on for far too long 😭

#project sekai #pjsk #prsk #vivid bad squad #vbs #and also the constant talking thoughts they love to add while they're singing please stop ✋️ #the other groups do this too but not to the extent and length vbs does #this is making me look like a vbs story hater but trust me im not!! they also have some absolute gold #its just these dragged out stories feel like a sore thumb ya know? #btw when i meant by mmj and wxs having negligable hiccups... #i was referring to the early stories (main events before tea time/haruka 1 basically) for mmj #and for wxs its island panic and curtain call #btw these stories are nowhere near as dragged as some vbs but still fell like there was some pandering ya know? #curtain call and island panic had great emotional beats but also had some chapters that felt like they could be taken out #like curtain call just feels regular for the first half until asahi does the arc land offer #and island panic had a unique concept and interesting developments for nene but did we really need two chapters about beefing with monkeys? #and the mmj early events feel unnecessarily longer because of the predictable formula they have of #something happens and girl feels bad -> girl goes to sekai and gets reassured by the vocaloids -> girl feels good and confident #for both of these groups is negligible in ths greater scope of things and the grand majority of their other stories are amazing #ok end of rambling tags #kohane azusawa #an shiraishi #toya aoyagi #akito shinonome

every 3-6 months my opinon on nick locarno does a complete 180. it’s like hey buddy ✌️😁

#and that false friend kept his back turned…. #here’s what it boils down to #1) pilots and esp young hotshot jet pilots are supposed to be reckless and fun and dangerous. read the right stuff #and if they get killed it’s just cuz ‘they didn’t have what it takes’ you constantly have to prove yourself. READ THE RIGHT STUFF #2) this in general is demonstrated in starfleet cuz the officers that take big risks are the ones who get rewarded for it. we see that in tn #except none of the ‘heros’ ever die or get reprimanded for their choices. cuz they always end up okay #2) nick is like 21-22 and it seems unfair to judge him super hardly for the accident #because it’s DEMONSTRATED that starfleet actively encourages this type of behavior in officers and that definetly bleeds over to the cadets #3) and well. we’ve gotten to the biggest one. even if rationally he should be a sympathie character that i can forgive. #the thing is. that you look up to your cadet officers like they are your whole entire world. they’re your leaders you’d do anything for them #but they’re also your friends. and even if nick is in the clear. i cannot for the life of me imagine being betrayed like that #BY specifically your squad leader. like with officers it’s impartial they don’t realllyyyy care about you. BUT A CADET OFFICER. #YOURE SUPPOSED TO TRUST THEM THWYRE SUPPOSED TO STAND BY YOU NO MATTER WHAT!!!! ugh #which is why first duty is sooo rough for me cuz like. man you can’t not empathize with wesley there i can’t imagine if that happened to me #i would kill myself for real. anyway. moral of this is i’m a nick hater again hashtag hater

lasko and freelancer in the friendsgiving audio make me melt. freelancer wasn't against gavin’s teasing and flirting with lasko, but when it ended and gav decided to check on damien and hux in the kitchen, they immediately checked on him and encouraged him to tell them what was on his mind. they entertained his questions and rants with consideration and a tender attitude. they're just so ughdhhfhh i am. normal about them

#redacted lasko #redacted freelancer #when they're humanborns who understand each other like no one else would >>>> #holding onto their non-canon audios for dear life #usual fl/damn squad rambles because i can't seem to get them off my mind #redacted asmr #rambles #*holds them both gently* #“no i... i know. i trust him to behave— for the most part.” AAAHHH they're adorable #boy the love i have for this duo is ridiculous #the duo we will call the Flirty Gavin Enablers ™ #love love love #I LOVE THEM #ok ris. now shut up

Started thinking about the Amanda Waller + Ben Turner relationship again.... fuck, I'm gonna need a minute

#I JUST- SHDIAUDJSHDSHEYEYRYRYRY guys. guys #i know none of you see my vision and thats okay. i will make you see my vision. i will force you to see my vision. i will- #like jesus fucking christ oh my god. its so interesting and gives me so many emotions and just!!! #i know im not making sense bc none of my moots are sui sq fans and also like half of the content fucking me up specifically here is in my #head because i cant stop thinking about my absolute power fix it au but like!!!!!!! #also the fact i have a fix it for a comic that isnt out yet is so funny to me. its literally fucking real though. god knows we need it #may my own content carry me through the dark times (extreme villain waller arc) #anyways this fucks me up so bad you dont even know. someday ill actually explain it #dc hire me to write a suicide squad ongoing PLEASE. i could do it so good it would be so fucking good dc PLEASE 😭😭😭😭😭😭 #also like this isnt me shipping them btw. like 110% not that. just to clarify. #i wouldnt even call it a friendship bc like. theyre not friends really. he has the most equal dynamic with her i would say but it still isnt #equal. shes v much his boss even though they have an understanding and respect there #like she believes and trusts in him much more than anybody really even himself. like she sees the good man and the leader even when he #doesnt. but she isnt nice about it. and there is a lot of conflict between them when there needs to be #like as much as ben is “wallers man”--the team leader she wanted from the beginning before rick flagg pushed his way in #ben i would say is still a very moral person even when lost and unsure of himself and his goodness (which is like one of his main things) #like i feel like while amanda can lean very into a “the ends justify the means” mindset in her worse moments and do bad things to get #herself out of a corner ben has like a deep and meaningful understanding of how the choices of your methods and how you act can weigh on you #like even though he was brainwashed and whatnot (thats still the story right? i cant remember) he holds a lot of guilt and baggage over his #actions and i think is able to temper amanda's worse tendencies in terms of that by calling her out when he recognizes that behavior #idk. i just really think that amanda waller and the suicide squad as a whole has lost its way without a more moral authority presence there. #like someone who can call her out and keep them more on track. which i really thing ben is and could be #i just very much am interested in their dynamic and how that would look like as equals and how i think they could help each other. #which ofc is what my wip is about and revolves around #blah #sui sq

Yipee, look at this squad fixing windmills and protecting a village from dangerous monsters afflicted by something. A bunch of sillies :)

Sure hope the next plot point is forgiving :)

#doodles #the blorbo run #oh squad you just got comfy #leon realising that he truly has no idea what he’s doing. wow powerful attacks! how does he do that- #at the very least he has his zinogre trust #…i need leon to give his zinogre a nickname every other rider has- #what would he call teh thunder puppy… #anyway aha whoops my au hands are catching up to them. huh weird she’s kinda similar to people we know… #nah just a coincidence lmaooo #i know what’s happening next and ehehehehehehehehehe #might take a bit longer to catch up because oooh i wanna doodle it instead of screenshot it #might yeet that into main tags too. plague the world with blorbos

sometimes i think people just throw words around and don’t truly understand the meaning of the word ‘rebuild’

#chill out please. obviously it’s frustrating being out the cup so early in the season and that #especially due to team selection but it’s also like we should be able to trust our squad and give them minutes it’s literally just good #player management. ange needed a competitive game to assess his players like every other manager does #now were 9 changes the way to do that? idk man am not a prem manager but perhaps not #but now he knows who’ll make the mark and who doesn’t. like be serious did anyone truly believe we would win anything this year? #the rebuild’s gonna be painful man we will lose games and lose them badly is this the wake up call you needed? #all things considered this wasn’t even a bad loss they won off an unlucky own goal and pens #we win together and we lose together! sure we’ve been doing a lot of that losing this century but the club is on an upward trajectory #just give him time and a few windows and give the players time and patience too #it’s frustrating of course and nobody is above criticism but we’re literally 4 games in #it happens man. it’s a cup game. wild shit happens. #we move! 🤍 #rahul.txt
