Tatiana to Miguel: "The Rock Revolution should have been a wake-up call for you to return power to the people, not control them! Instead, you twisted Bunk Bed Junction and our message! How dare you! Now... you must build back this system better and make it for the actual people."
"Slap"
I had no idea what Miguel's NSpidR outfit would be, so I just used his spider suit for now.
OH MY GOSH HI YOU GUYS IT IS 6 IN THE MORNING AND I AM A SOBBING MESS RIGHT NOW. I AM SUCH A BABY. I HONESTLY DIDN'T EXPECT THIS TO ACTUALLY GO THROUGH, I'M JUST SITTING HERE WITH THE BIGGEST DUMB SMILE ON MY FACE WHILE TRYING NOT TO WAKE ANYONE IN THE HOUSE WITH MY CRYINGGNGNGNKKSJ 😭😭😭😭😭💗💞💘💕💖💖💘💓💖💕❤️💓💘❤️
I'M SO, SO, SO HAPPY ❤️❤️❤️ BLESS DAVID MENKIN'S SOUL OH MY GOSH!!
i was also thinking about the 2012 injuries list the other day and i think technically mikey “dies” the most and is knocked out the most times. so we can safely say that 2012 mikey goes through a fair amount of the horrors (but not enough times for me because i am sadistic and i want more Pain and Trauma for my favourite turtle lol)
I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS AN INJURY LIST LOL
tho yeah! if we are talking about physical injuries mikey is actually the one who gets injured the most times across the show :0! but by horrors i meant both physical and psychological horrors that show their consequences and dont get dismissed after one scene/end of the episode 😔👊
can we actually take a moment and remember swan upon leda? can we actually shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down and think about our lord and savior swan upon leda because i'm tired of doing it alone every single day guys
who i like bc of my fragments vs who i, aqua, the vessel like is actually so funny. i could probably make a chart for certain sources where i'm like 5 people and also have a crush on like 7 people
This was so beautiful... these guys can date later if they wish ofc it's their free will but I want THIS to be the canon event that's happened sometime in the timeline too, because this is so sweet and wholesome.
what do you think about kick and gunther's friendship (not as a ship)?
Again - kbsd? I will talk about this show for hours given the opportunity. Always. Keep enabling me. Please keep enabling me jjfjfksjdllvkskbdkvid
OKAY BUT THEESE BOYS AAAAH
One of the reasons I obsessed with kbsd is because of them. They are nice :)
Like, it would be so easy to make Kick this jerkish skater dude and yet he isn't. He is nice kid and his friendship with Gunther is genuine and HVGXGGYC ITS ADORABLE ACTUALLY. JUST TWO BOYS ENJOYING DANGEROUS STUFF (except one is doing it and the other watching it) I also like how their friendship isn't one way. It's not just Gunther helping Kick with stunts - Kick also goes out of his way to help with the stuff Gunther likes, like getting money for the clock or the whole lazy river episode. It's great :D
Their friendship also reminds me of my childhood friends. The "We found some rope, let's tie it to the trees and pretend like we're angry birds >:D" kind. So yeah, absolutely adore them and their energy.
Also, this fandom pet peeve but I've seen some portray Gunther as this dumb glut when he really isn't? He's not that smart and, sure, he can eat a lot but he was mostly defined by being genuinely kind and fun guy. Like darn, some people make him Howard from Randy Cunningham (Randy Cunningham is a fun cartoon but God I had such a whiplash from Randy and Howard after bindging Kick Buttowski again and getting used to Kick and Gunther.) Like idk, this along with "bad boy Kick" is something I genuinely dislike.
so what im getting is that it was absolutely unnecessary to isolate raffi on gotham city in order for her story to go on.
a story that’s so halfhearted that five episodes in—halfway to the end. btw—her motivation is yet to be explained (why go back to this sector of intelligence work when teaching seemed to be fulfilling? was she made to do this?? did she volunteer because her son now lives on this planet now apparently?? was losing elnor cris and possibly seven so painful that burying herself in work seemed like a better option??? who knows! not me!!) and it’s definitely a retreat character-wise but the fact that they still haven’t laid the groundwork to make this stick is kind of amazing lol. it’s the way they’re not even pretending to give a fuck about her or any of the other women characters for me—they said you’re a womb or a subordinate ladies pick one and shut the hell up LMAO?
the fact that the ‘real plot’ is happening on that other ship while everything raffi does is basically an afterthought with backstory slipped in between the cracks like aged caulk is so disheartening and pathetic. star trek picard make an effort maybe. she’s a polarizing character that’s been stuck in impossible situations, weighed down with retractions and stereotypes (they thread the line but HM) because the narrative continually refuses to meaningfully engage with her and a lot of fans of the show wont examine their own biases to see why they have such a viscerally negative reaction to a complicated black woman character that’s good at what she does, knows it and refuses to kneel at the foot of their hero’s :)
and if it wasn’t for ms hurd elevating this performance with sheer will, massive talent and the whip of that (sexy) ponytail? shit would be so much worse. but it’s still bad! because instead of giving her a nuanced, thoughtful send off she’s once again being made to suffer for the nth time. because why? oh right so wise man worf can guide her to the light lol give me a fuckin break.
and it’s no accident that if you cut raffi out (which they literally did in ep4 miss musiker you WILL be avenged) the story could more or less proceed as usual. that’s by design.
because legacy characters or not, im simply not buying that the main white cast members (plus two interlopers idgaf about those new guys and they’re doing nothing to make me care either. pick a random channel and their stories are being told right now live and in color like don’t piss me off) just so happen to be on the ship with the lead yet the sole woc is sent away on some underbaked adventure because ‘reasons?’ please. this season literally could not be more transparent about the audience they’re catering to and who/whose stories are of importance and consideration.
and i knew this would probably happen once the premise for s3 was revealed but i still can’t get over how obvious it is that there really was no plan for raffi and that she only happened to bypass the cull of the la sirena crew because she was romantically linked with seven at the time. which is baffling considering how things are (not) going between them (#theyareMARRIEDletthemTALKandKISSandREST)
and it’s not just them like everything about this season is quite literally happening just because. every slightly interesting or fresh development (and character it’s true) from the previous seasons has been dismissed or diminished and for what? secret sons and man pain? ew lmao. no suspense no lingering threads just excessive shots of ships, an aggressive insistence on biological families and rampant, shameless references to past glory. a mess.
We never get to see Duke Eckart’s given name in the entire story from what I remember so I raise the suggestion that his given name is also just. Duke. Thats it. Nothing fancy, his name is just Duke.
