the movie aint better ya goofs (don't read if you don't wanna hear my slander lol,,,)
"Movie!Gabriel is better than show!Gabriel because he actually cares for his son and gets redeemed"
istg this fandom's obsession with redemption needs to END
Morally better character ≠ better writing
Can I just get a piece of media that tells kids "hey, ur abusive parent was an asshole, and even if they had humanity you do not need to reconcile and forgive them in the end" bc I feel like that's what show!Gabriel leans towards which is great
Gabriel barely talks to Adrien in the movie and suddenly when he sees him under CN's mask his entire reign of terror, his determination to see his dead wife again ends in a tearful hug lmao come on now
("but the ending where Adrien suddenly loves his dad again???"- Astruc has been pretty blunt on Twitter that this perfect society you see in S5's ending is built off of a lie, so Adrien is def not gonna just keep that view)
"Adrien actually stands up to his dad in the movie!"
Movie!Adrien is legit a normal human boy, not a sentimonster who is literally physically incapable of fighting back against whoever has his amok
He DOES fight back (even in S1 as CN!), but people like to remember the show only up to S3. Guess what, he learns to fight back and stand up for himself through his growing bonds and relationships with those around him through character development ✨✨✨
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, he is an abused kid??? In the show?? How can you knock him down a peg for not fighting back,,, 😭 Adrien's lesson isn't that he needs to learn how to fight back, it's that Nathalie shoulda called cps sooner!!! In the movie they are much more of an estranged father-son pair than anything abusive. So obviously the back talk is much easier too. Movie!Adrien gets to go out alone and with friends unless his dad has specifically planted an enemy where he is. Show!Adrien has been beaten, mind controlled, forced to hurt Marinette, isolated and locked up, etc.- he has been TERRIFIED of his dad multiple times.
Tumblr media
"Marinette isn't an obsessive stalker in this!"
SIGH.
Man I am so sick of this complaint- the show has never rewarded Marinette for her obsessive behavior. BC IT IS A CHARACTER FLAW. One they use for cringe comedic purposes, but a flaw nonetheless. Every time she has done anything that hurts others in pursuit of Adrien she is punished by the writers. And bc the show has an episodic monster-of-the-week format, this plot is recycled a lot (which is its own complaint). And guess what? SHE STOPS BEING OBSESSIVE. YEAH. SHE STOPS DOING THAT SHIT- so what do you want now??? She grew out of it after it costs her the miraculous so why tf are yalls still hurling this at her like its a L,,,,
This Marinette is just a watered down boring version of show!Marinette. She's just a girl who gets insecure at times but grows confident bc she's Ladybug. Ok. So is our Marinette but MORE. Our Marinette is super smart, creative, resourceful, an overthinker, extremely kind and selfless to others, gets jealous and reckless when her emotions get the better of her, etc. She is fully formed even after watching just 3 episodes of S1.
Tumblr media
Like the fact that they didn't even bother to include the oh so important hook of the show- her lucky charm power- shows they didn't care about doing this story justice- its so transparently lazy writing 💀 (miraculous of creation where??? CN gets cataclysm for destruction but what is movie!LB bringing to the yin yang table,,,)
Legitimately all the comparisons I'm hearing from people saying the movie is better are from those who just aren't caught up with the show where Marinette is no longer toxically obsessive with Adrien, where the plot/lore is insane but 10000000x better and more creative than what the movie gave us, the love square was much better developed EVEN FROM JUST THE ORIGINS EPISODES, etc. Istg these people stopped at S3 where the show was at its worst (if I were to pinpoint it)
Everything is so watered down or changed for the worse
Adrienette bonding was 1 conversation and 2 seconds about his mom in a voiceless montage. Marinette didn't fall for him bc of his kindness after a misunderstanding, it was bc he looked handsome in the library's light lol. He called her weird and didn't think twice about putting on his earphones to listen to more alpha podcasts. You really do wonder why she likes this dude over her partner CN bc they have no connection at all.
Movie!Adrien was an asshole don't you dare do show!Adrien dirty by comparing him to this ellen degeneres alien lookin mf
When movie!Adrien is crying after Mari reveals herself as LB, unlike the show, here you're like "yeah no you only like her now bc she's LB lol"
Anyways feel free to enjoy what you enjoy but uuuuuhhhh this movie getting a 3/10 for me would not rewatch
Oh wait the good things
-Visuals
-Some Ladynoir scenes were cute, like them playfully fighting with the accidental wall pin
-I liked Ladybug moving away from CN's kiss- nice hint of angst
-Chloe's coffee stain scene
-Luka cameos were cute
songs were bad or mid
ya das it
I guess feel free to talk to me in my inbox about your own thoughts if you wish (respectfully plz)

❤️ 💐 🌲 for Ying & Ivris!!! >:)
❤️ In what ways are you and your OC similar?
YING (courtesy of my bf): abandonment issues, questioning if ppl want him or not, saying nonsense, old self dead
IVRIS: black sheep of the family yet attached to their mom, sense of worth based on usefulness/ability to do (bf bonus: gay, likes tea)
💐 What is your OC's favorite love language? What about their LEAST favorite?
YING: favorite is definitely physical touch and least favorite is words of affirmation (because its too embarrassing and too 'real' for him)
IVRIS: favorite is acts of service & least favorite is gifts (receiving them !! he loves giving)
🌲 What is your favorite part of your world/setting?
id def have to say the idea of a mental (and visual when extreme) manifestation of an alpha or omega's pure secondary instincts.
basically: alpha/omega are dualistic, one extreme of the other, so if alpha is the manifestation of pure yang energy (and omega yin), the manifestation is of the opposite characteristics
i.e. alphas carry an inner voice that helps balance the intense action-driven nature by bringing thought and reason while omegas carry one that instead pushes them to fight back and to not be so docile etc
dom alpha/omega have the strongest manifestations (that can even become visual) because their instincts are so strong, while recessive have the weakest (so rec. alphas can surprisingly be the most aggro and omegas co/dependent to extreme degrees) and may not even notice this 'voice' or conscience

RWBY V9 opening theories/analysis
@mythicalnonsense825 and i spent like 20 minutes putting this together. PLS ADD UR OWN THEORIES IM SO CURIOUS ‼
JAUNE HAS THE WHITE RABBIT BECAUSE HE WAS TOO LATE TO SAVE PYRRHA AND PENNY
the clocks behind jaune are the clocks from ozpin's office
the clocks have no 11:00 (no 11th hour, either no being too late OR no final chances) but they do have 13, an 'unlucky' number
11 symbolizes the spiritual messenger, and jaune is joan of arc, a messenger of god. but no one believed joan. is jaune going to find a way out and have no one believe him? are the gods going to communicate to him? 11 represents balance, too, specifically containing both SUN and MOON energy.
THE LEAVES ARE LIKE THE FOREVER FALL LEAVES
ren, nora, qrow, winter and them arent in the opening, will they be in the season at all?
neo and the crime syndicate of dead people??? i see clover, ozma, and adam (maybe jaques?????????) myth's making a post abt her theories
is ever after/wonderland actually the afterlife? yang was talking about how she was sure she was dead. maybe she saw something - pyrrha maybe? clover? please?
what do the mice represent?????
jabberwalker is VERY important. last time a grimm-like thing talked it was actually a person, and they hinted that thats what happened to summer, maybe the jabberwalker is summer?? in the art at the end of the episode, ruby's facing it alone.
alyx (new girl) is 100% alice
NEO AND ALYX ARE THE SAME PERSON? MAYBE? MAYBE SIBLINGS? alyx literally turns into ruby at one point
why is alyx silhouetted? is she not what she seems? a Dark Past maybe?
i sense tension between alyx and ruby. crescent rose washes up on the beach WITH alyx- does she take it? does ruby feel like she's replacing her? alyx starts to lead, it looks like.
right before ruby falls when theyre all on the tree weiss, yang, and blake are all in fighting position while ruby's barely holding on.
alyx's sibling/friend in the mirror -- neo?? someone else?? maybe pietro?
neo is DEF the mad hatter, and the flowers on her cup are forget-me-nots
ruby's new cat friend is the cheshire cat. she's falling behind and the cat's walking with her -- is it manipulating her?? im worried abt how vulnerable she is rn
ik im delusional but GOLD LADY WARRIOR PYRRHA?????? MAKING JAUNE'S ARMOR????????
little doll guy is the king of hearts?? who's the queen of hearts/the red queen. ruby?? she's the heart of the group, she's red, and she's going down a different path this season.
ruby falls far behind when they get to the king/queen of hearts section, and they start running. then, theyre running a lot faster in the magic forest place. are they running away from ruby, or are they chasing alyx?
can they use their semblances? they all got winded super easily, too. aura doesnt exist here?
"why should i fight to connect with a world/i cannot exhume?/that world is ungrateful/a family estranged/(hatred won)" ruby's giving up on fighting. "what i'd give in exchange to be happy without trying" -- if ruby has a villain arc it's over for me. this seems like it connects to ruby/alyx's fake smile on the bridge

Ya know, it's funny that Pyrrha nearly won the fight, because I can pinpoint to you where exactly she SHOULD have won: when she had Cinder in that hold with her sword. Depending on whatever model of aura function RT were deciding was working at the time, she should have either been able to slide the blade in Cinder's hands and either: caused Cinder pain while her aura negates the damage and giving Pyrrha an opening to do even more damage, cute her hand and caused her pain while her aura tried to heal whatever's still attached again giving Pyrrha an opportunity to do damage, or broke Cinder's aura effectively ending the fight. To make this an ask with an actual question, what do you think would have happened, in an AU where Pyrrha manages to beat Cinder in their fight. I think it's clear Pyrrha would've become a maiden and Salem would've lost a... I can't even say a powerful tool, but a tool nevertheless, but Beacon likely still would have been lost I think.
Oh, she absolutely should've won there. Not just because of sliding the blade either — she had Cinder bent backwards in a high-leverage position, and had already demonstrated that she's physically stronger than Cinder. In that hold, with Cinder's hands where they were, there's no way she could keep the blade from coming in on her neck.
And that's not even mentioning the many hits she landed before, including with all the gears, which would've been enough to break Cinder's aura in any fight since. Or Cinder magically having an arrow that can disintegrate and reintegrate, which she's never been able to do again despite that being something that would've been extremely useful in every fight since.
Seriously, Pyrrha went into that fight at like half aura at best and still should've won. It still took wyvern backup, a special one use only magic arrow, and a get out of hold free card for Cinder to pull off a win.
As for your question, hmm… In a Pyrrha wins AU where everything else is the same up to that point, I def think she'd become the Fall Maiden. I agree that Beacon would fall, but I think it would be easier to retake. See, the reason it still hadn't been is because of the wyvern statue more or less, but a Pyrrha win means no wyvern statue. Most likely everyone would have to retreat while a few of the heavies and the fleet concentrated firepower on the wyvern to finally take it down (unless somehow Ruby hit it with laser-eyes later), and Beacon would be pretty well destroyed and need to be rebuilt, so short term everyone would still have to leave but long term they wouldn't be constantly having to clear out Grimm and could actually rebuild it.
CCT would still be down, so the rest of the world would be in more or less the same condition. Unless Ruby laser-eyed though, there wouldn't be anything holding them there. Yang might want to stay to recover, maybe Ruby with her, but the rest? Pyrrha is a Maiden now and Ozpin is dead. Is she just going to stay there? I kinda doubt it. Maybe she'd go back to Mistral and Haven with the students that end up there — and the rest of her team with her — or maybe Ironwood would ask her to go to Atlas with him, since he's also at Beacon at the time whilst Lionheart isn't. Either way, they'll inevitably get pulled more into the whole Salem thing. And especially if it's Atlas, maybe Ruby and even Yang end up going too; after all, Weiss is there, and Vale's hospitals are surely overcrowded but Atlas should have room for Yang to recover and, if she wants, they're the cutting edge for prosthetics.

If you’re still up to do that first impressions character ask from the other day… what about Raven Branwen?
Ooh that’s an interesting one 👀 I’ll give it a whirl!
First impression - Is this…Yang’s mom? I thought she was dead? No it’s just RUBY’S mom that’s dead Yang’s mom is just a shitty mom (I was still trying to figure out who’s who and also forgot Yang and Ruby were half sisters at this point lmao)
Impression now - mom of the year award goes to…literally anyone else
Favorite moment - not exactly a Raven moment but the Weiss and Yang reunion at her camp. “Your mom kidnapped me?!” “YOU KIDNAPPED HER?!” Literally gets me every time. (I’ve seen it once but I’m sure it’ll get me every other time as well)
Idea for a story - nah I’m good with not including her in stories she doesn’t deserve it
Unpopular opinion - idk man she sux yang deserves better etc. etc. idk if those are unpopular 😂
Favorite relationship - I am SO curious about the team STRQ relationship dynamics like they all fuckin or related I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Favorite headcanon - summer and raven were def a thing at some point

Autopsy turvy, this seems like a woody heavy episode, I might need to liveblog it. Side note, I haven't seen a flashback in a while.
Often confuses clowns & bus incidents.
Lost his keys in a woman's spleen. (they say the patient withheld the object, as if it's their fault.)
Briefly lovers with his forensic school classmate.
The camera is almost fuzzy, & the music, it def gives off a vibe.
Monk & sharona moments "you be the victim"
IT SHATTERS RIGHT THEN!? IS THAT A DREAM?
Who is this guy? Why is he so fancy? Why does he know them?
Oh a true crime bookstore. Castle moments. I need to finish posting all my stuff from that fixation.
It took me a second to et it. The little person is still at large. Ha. Hey I have one that involes psychics! A petite psychic escapes from prison: there is a small medium at large!
They turn around so a man can check out their "rumps"
Oh no not the yang book. Oh I remember, I once visited a show home where they had a bookshelf you could push in the basement to get to a secret movie theater room.
He's going to forge the signature
Woody probably gets off at 18.00 (6) because he said he'd stay there until 6.15pm if need be.
Hee lied & said his father was the king of sweden.
My man didn't chew his food
phat thai jones, the killer afro-thai place
I've met white (passing) thai people, chill out shawn, not every white person in america was born there. (Oh. Apparently this guy was adopted. I totally thought he was just thai or mixed or smth, which is funny bc it's a thai & african place & this guy is racially white, not racially black nor thai, even tho his dad is thai & his mom is Black from philly)
Sometimes people with allergies or intolerances can stand a little bit of the thing which hurts them.
"Could the alcohol have been inserted into his blood somehow?" 'That is the sexiest thing I've heard in this office.'
I like this weirdo
I LIKE THIS MUSIC. Usually I like jazz swing like big bands, but swing rock is ok too, but this is almost classical! I want to listen to glenn miller's moonlight serenade
I was right! It is 40s! or 30s.
Henry! Can Henry dance? "idk shawn." *looks at the voluptuous woman* "Count me in"
she's still dancing XD
Ooh another psychic!
*grabs his face* & she's right!
He was the stalker, not the other way around
No! The slavic accent going away!
lmao not death, that is not how it works
hiding behind one another
captions were wrong. "Hey o'hara"
He's a communicator? Dude your firt marriage failed & I am torn between you being a cis white guy & being autistic!
What the heck
Even sitting on the floor, Shawn grabs a pillow for his lap!
she calls woody a good boy ...
mortitian: is there anything sexier than a man scaling another man's fingernails? Woody: nope. & btw I realize I'm acutely turned on by taking orders from a woman. If this continues, I might have to change my facebook relationship status to "it's complicated" These two about to kiss over a dead body & then she asks about his wife with whom he is separated ebcause she cheated on him 2 times with 10 men, & idk if he is counting the one he approved
Gus recognizes her as the bologna girl XD
"Gus was there" pulling the "I have a Black friend" card? srs?
Morrtitian lady brought creme fraiche & strawberries into the morgue!? She sppoon feeds him & did you hear that moan!? GRACE that was her name!
Woody says it feels amazing to... mess with an intestine... while some old flame is feeding him strawberries
I NOTICED THE STAMP!!!
Ooh impala isn't a bad car. Poor whip chatterly. That sounds like a Gus name.
Woody: You just can't tell what a person is capable of until you've seen them naked. *proceeds to offer them cakesters with the dead body still there*
woody: From now on I'm not half-assing ANY autopsies, unless the corpse has half an ass
Shoot, & THEN the door slam. I honestly have been suspecting the mortician grace since day 1. Did he dial on purpose or WAS it a pocket dial?
Shawn gave Gus his cakester! They do love each other!
Swallowed a bullet?
biscotti? HOMEMADE? "Let's pretend we're oding an episode of red shoe diaries"
Grace Mortician: I think we need to pull another all-nighter. I love this job. Woodrow Strode: You know, I do too.
Motive?
Gus could totally rock a turtleneck.
Woody: I thought they were going home to watch hot in cleaveland *as if they live together*
calls her banana Even when she's basically confessing to him he says "we can still go two for three" this man
At least he got her to explain.
FINALLY SOMEONE IS OBSESSED WITH WOODY NOT WITH SHAWN! Brilliant but misunderstood. She broke open the case, but then she solved it? When did she choose to frame this guy?
SHE SLICED THE EARLOBE AFTER THE AUTOPSY! Why did she need it to be an investigation? "You may not realize it grace, but you're insane." 'Well I'm a woman. I can mask it.'
I'm not ready to die, I haven't seen gloria estefan in concert yet!
Thank you for believing in me. I didn't, I believed on your colleague who turned out to be a homicidal maniac.
I love you guys. I mean that. Shawn gus & woody are great, I wish they got more screentime. You know, it's just as easy for me to love a man as it is a woman. At the end of the day we're all jut meltable flesh & breakable bones.
& then immediately asks the chief, who has a picture of her daughter behind her, if she is seeing anyone. He saves it with "I was just overjoyed, got away frommyself" & then he ruins it with "I guess it'll only be in my dreams that you are the chief of doing me" like bro shut up I'm glad shawn & gus are there to... bring things... to a professional level... that is weird.
Awww henry napping on her boob <3

I read some of your Raven meta so I hope you don't mind; I think people are too quick to dismiss Raven as "irredeemable" because she's done some shady shit (which she def has!) But her character becomes significantly more interesting when you view her through the lens that she ran away and turned to this behaviour because a) she somehow found out Salem was immortal and b) Oz didn't have a plan. Every character we see so far who has been redeemed have shown remorse, which Raven has. Cinder OTOH..
Anonymous asked:
As for "if she knew why didn't she mention anything to Yang"? ...Yang barely believed Raven when all she was saying was "don't blindly follow orders, Oz isn't who he's portraying himself to be" like. She /could/ have, and maybe that's a fair critique but it wouldn't have gotten her far and Raven plays her cards/information to her chest (which yes, is a flaw). This got a lot longer than I intended sorry 😞
no worries
and yeah i think the problem with how Raven is received is mainly boiled down to people wanting to boil her down to a base archetype and dismiss her - she's meant to be a complicated and layered character, like a dark reflection of her daughter. hell, in the Yellow trailer, the first two characters on-screen after the opening quote talking about not being on-sided and easily processed are Yang and Raven in bird form
it is fitting in a really annoying way though that the way parts of the fandom dismiss Raven as "irredeemable" is similar to how Yang gets dismissed as a "dumb bimbo". because this fandom seems to have a major literacy issue and can barely seem to be able to comprehend what's happening on-screen, let alone themes in character narratives or hell, actual characterisation
Raven is interesting! she's complex and traumatised and there are obviously reasons behind the way she is that she's not willing to share and it's what makes her so compelling as a character
hell, even her telling Yang not to trust Ozpin and blindly follow orders - telling her to ask questions - that all feeds into why the reasoning behind why she wouldn't just tell Yang; finding out that information firsthand and not just accepting what you're told by an authority figure is exactly the point she was trying to get across. telling Yang to think for herself and then giving her own account of events would've been counterintuitive. and yeah, there's no guarantee Yang would've believed her anyway
Raven's got a lot of issues and a lot of flaws but they're not an insurmountable barrier between where she is now and redemption (and then there's the whole discussion of whether a character is 'redeemable' when ultimately redemption is a choice, a character choosing to be better for any number of reasons, that's a whole essay in and of itself - and even after all this time people still don't get that there's an entire gulf between redemption and forgiveness, they're wholly separate things and often mutually exclusive)
but you're right, Raven's shown remorse - it took Yang brutally shattering every protective wall she puts up to get to that point, but it's there
and more-so you've gotta consider what Raven's powers say about her. much like Yang, she's motivated on a far more personal level; Yang was never in this for some grand quest or "save the world" crap. she's there for Ruby, for her friends
Raven's Semblance, the very essence of her being, is built on her connections to other people and the love she has for them (which is why she has so few portals, because she's closed herself off and outside of Vernal, she hasn't made a connection with anyone since Yang was born). like, i think that's something people just kinda gloss over but Raven is defined by her relationships with other people and she cares far more than she lets on (this is why i always thought it was silly that people actually thought Raven wanted Qrow dead when she just said that to con Cinder - if Raven wanted Qrow dead she could kill him at any time. her Semblance gives her unrestricted access to him at all times, like when he's asleep, or drunk, and being the Spring Maiden makes that fight even more one-sided in her favour)
if anything is gonna get Raven back in the fight and redeeming herself, it's her love for her family - and Yang chewing her out has exposed her like a raw nerve and given her shit to reflect on instead of burying herself like before

my thoughts on possession* that literally no one asked for, xD:
*i mean ns5, not, like, owning property or smth😭 keep reading under the cut, rip your browser though-
- the ghost whip was apparently supposed to be remixed off the ghostbusters theme?? i haven't watched the latter, but idk man, that's pretty cool:D
the fact that the scriptwriters decided to make a teenage emo ghost with awesome hair and too much eyeliner more threatening than the literal embodiment of this show's version of Hell is,,, wild tbh 
the air has water (well, moisture) in it, and food has water in it... like wouldn't it be weird if ghosts could just accumulate enough water on their corporal forms from the air and food and stuff and then slowly dissolve, because of like, eating too much watermelon or something- 
@/wojira made an awesome post (i don't have the link:() about how they'd realized that water is fatal to ghosts probably because it's one of the most important things animals need to live, and that's just such a cool idea 
yang LAUGHED when the others found out cole was dead. he. freaking. laughed. i haven't watched day of the departed but that's,,, geez, that's pretty horrible- 
also!! y'all, back me up here: when you read a post that has the abbreviation 'dotd', i can't be the only one that mentally hears it as 'dotted'?? or am i just weird😭
possession is the only season from one to seven not to have a 'companion' song by the fold:( but day of the departed does have close the circle yk? 
anyways- i'd really like to know what exactly the fsm died from, and how he died? like he could literally create anything couldn't he just create an elixir or life or smthand also!!! i really really want to know whether he was dying from whatever it was and went 'oh shoot, gotta protect the realm crystal, lemme just create a tomb-maze-puzzle real quick!' or he created said tomb-maze-puzzle a while before his death and when he was dying he just went down to the cave and lay there...... 
also this is tragically hilarious, i wasn't sure if i should laugh or cry when i first read it, but- if you search 'morro' on google, the first thing to come up is something called morro..... bay.... 
bay, as in, huge thingamajig of water- i think i've got a new fav antagonist, y'all. the scriptwriters!! 
what happened to all of yang's students, like, before they got ghosted. i wonder what he did to do them for all those years, tbh. like was he actually a teacher, just a really strict one, or straight up horrible? (i know i know, dotted- i'll watch it at some point) 
morro also kinda sounds like "to-morro":(- okay, i'll stop now 
for a homeless orphan who then lived in a monastery with a really strict teacher, i would love to know how morro got access to bleach and hair dye,,,, like, did wu buy it for him or was it a side effect of his powers or,,, actually, now i wanna write this- 😭
who actually sends ppl to the cursed realm? like,,, it seemed to be the show's version of Hell (all the villains were sent there after they died, wu and garmadon sent the anacondrai generals there too), but who DECIDES who goes there, yk...??
the entire season can literally be summed up by this thing my friends and i use sometimes:(((: 😃🔫 
cloud kingdom is basically the show's version of 'what came first, the chicken or the egg' and i'm not sure if i should love that or want to scream every time im reminded of it, because, like, FREAKING GOSH DID THEY WRITE THEMSELVES INTO EXISTENCE OR WAS IT THE FSM OR WAS IT ANOTHER THING LIKE AHHHHHNNGGGG I NEED TO KNOW- 
mmmmmm mmmmm puffy potstickers 
also, how can ghosts gain weight, like, they're legit green misty foggy things-  def gonna reblog and add some more, this is fun, lol- also, thanks for reading if you read all this weird rambling, xD. if you have any similar thoughts or questions, feel free to put them in the chat or the tags!:D

5x2- Feet Don’t Kill Me Now: Shus and Lassie/Jules, heavy with partner love talk (37 minutes in).The whole episode bangs the audience over the head with reasons Shawn and Gus fit so perfectly and why Juliet and Lassie fit so perfectly. The writers are begging you to read between the lines! And it’s not hard to do!!!!!!
5x3- Not Even Close... Encounters: married couple fist bump and Shawn and Gus exchange meaningful look (13 minutes in)
5x4- Chivalry is Not Dead... But Someone is: Shawn admits he like how Gus smells (28 minutes in) and Lassie and Jules are an actual power couple
5x6- Viagra Falls: Lassiet moment where he asks her if he should name his gun, def dating!
5x8- Shawn 2.0: simply because Shawn makes very bi awkward hand movements and I’m not saying it confirms he’s a raging bi but it does. Very much so
5x14- The Polarizing Express: Christmas episode that contains Shawn baring his soul to Gus and calling their relationship ‘the most stable’ one he’s ever been in
5x15- Dead Bear Walking: the last scene has interviews of each character separately but Shawn and Gus are sitting shoulder to shoulder, practically in each other’s laps, and being a married couple
5x16- Yang 3 in 2D: Gus love confession (basically) as he thinks he is about to be killed by Yang, Carlton being jealous of Shawn’s relationship with Juliet

okay I have to do this today because even I wouldn’t do it after the godforsaken finale airs, and it’s basically my specialty and I did spend like an hour thinking about it last night while washing dishes. Definitely partly inspired by @words-writ-in-starlight​‘s insightful post on everything Supernatural did wrong, and apologies in advance to all the characters for dragging them into anything related to Christian mythology:
Wei Wuxian’s parents die in a house fire when he’s 6(? I refuse to look anything up) months old
Jiangs are a hunter family I guess? That whole disaster of a family dynamic, except WWX dips out at some point to be idk an environmental activist bc at the time, that seems like the larger threat to the whole world. “Mom and Dad went on a hunting trip and they haven’t come back”, “bitch” “jerk”, 2 brothers in a beat-up old car, you know the drill
Jins are also an old hunting family, but more Men of Letters energy - they have a fancy bunker and do research and avoid getting their actual hands dirty. Jiang Yanli ducked out of the active hunting life a few years ago to be happily married to her peacock and settled down with a baby and she’s fine. We’re not going to bother Yanli. She’s safe and happy and doesn’t need to involved in any of this
so, WWX is the demon blood child developing exciting new abilities like telekinesis, mind control, exorcising demons by sheer force of will...etc, and Jiang Cheng is the Righteous Man. Lucifer, Michael, etc.
s1-3 probably proceeds more or less as spn canon...which I more or less remember...by the time they find their parents at the end of s1, Jiang Fengmian is...ugh, we probably shouldn’t kill him offscreen, I mean, we should probably meet him before he dies. I guess. Madam Yu lasts longer because I’m way more interested in her. But we do know that both Jiang parents are totally inclined to fling the boys into a metaphorical or literal escape boat and go hold the line for as long as possible, so...that’s spn energy...
Xue Yang is the one who’s like “fuck yeah, demon powers” and opens the gates of Hell, because I want him to have nice* things
*nice for Xue Yang
from characterization rather than memory, I’m 90% sure that Dean tried to hide his crossroads deal from Sam, but Jiang Cheng does it...better. I think it does come out, though. Right before the hellhounds do.
here’s where it starts to go farther off from spn canon. Jiang Cheng crawls his way out of the grave, gets stalked by a menacing presence that explodes windows for an episode, incidentally can’t find WWX...*Lan Wangji voice* “I’m the one who gripped you tight and raised you from Perdition” (a baller line then and a baller line now)...and then the next episode starts with them all awkwardly standing around, and JC is like, “ok well let’s go find my brother then”, and you think there’s going to be an mdzs-riffing JC+LWJ Roadtrip To Find WWX...and they’re immediately attacked by like a dozen demons
in fact, the first time we see WWX in s4 is here, wherein he goes toe to toe with an angel and...holds his own. that’s new and terrifying! also is leading a squad of demons??
because here’s the thing: for the last 3(?) months, there’s been war in hell
because unlike Some People Mooses, upon finding out that his brother’s soul was legally nearly-owned by a crossroads demon, heir-apparent-to-Satan!WWX went, “actually fuck that” and kicked open the door of Hell (metaphorically, not loosing any demons this time) and was like, “who do I have to beat the shit out of to get a specific crossroads contract around here”
this did not work, obv. He didn’t know until it was too late, Lilith had already snapped up the contract, etc. etc.
obviously he also tried to offer himself instead, and got rejected for some reason
Since Jiang Cheng died, however, there’s been a war for control of Hell. Leading one side, Lilith, the Original Babe, who wants to break all 666(?) seals keeping Lucifer bound and in the meantime, break the Righteous Man so Heaven won’t even have Michael’s destined host ready for the Final Battle. Leading the other side, Wei Wuxian, infamous upstart, who wants to rescue the Righteous Man and restore him to life, tear Lilith’s guts out through her nose, and also stop her from doing the Lucifer thing because Wen Qing explained that yes, that’s a Thing, and it’s Bad.
Wen Qing! I’ve decided to combine Bela and Ruby’s roles and let WQ be both the cool badass example of how demon deals can go Bad and the demon deliberately leading our heroes astray for most of s3-4. Wen Qing is a very new demon; she used to be some sort of herbalist/witch but then she sold her soul in a crossroads deal to cure her brother of some lingering illness. 10 years of happiness and then boom, hellhounds. WQ is so obviously competent, though, that they (Lilith, I guess?) immediately offers her a job, with the promise threat that gee, that’s a nice brother you’ve got there, even with his Designated Chronic Health Condition getting all relapse-y. It’d be such a shame if something were to...happen to him...
we find this out at some point in last s3 I guess? some Monster of the Week case involves WN as a witness or something, or possible next victim, and WQ shows up to be A Normal Amount Of Invested In This, while desperately trying to avoid actually interacting with her brother (who thinks she’s dead). YES, the truth comes out; YES there’s a tearful reunion
now in s4, Wen Ning is fine actually, health-wise, bc he maybe made a crossroads deal with Wei Wuxian personally, and Wen Qing may or may not have admitted that she’s supposed to be working for Lilith to get WWX ready to host Lucifer? Or potentially that comes out later, idk. Either way, she’s 100% his top lieutenant in this exciting Hell War they’re waging
[insert whatever the hell (ha) happened plot-wise in s4 of supernatural]
we obviously mix up the relationships, too, bc it’s like, *LWJ internal monologue* I’m too young to remember my brother Lucifer as he was before he Fell, but surely Wei Wuxian is his Heir and Destined Vessel in truth, for he is Charismatic and Charming and Makes Me Feel Things, with his Clearly Feigned Righteous Drive and Compassion for All God’s Creatures and - why does heat keep pooling in the lower abdomen of my vessel when I look at his lips, which I am definitely doing a Normal and Not-Weird Amount - I’m just keeping an eye out for the famed Silver Tongue, and not in any way wondering how it would feel in my own mouth -
it’s actually DEFINITELY plausible for Lucifer to still be released even if our designated Heir Apparent is using his demon powers to his full potential and no one’s lying to each other about their motives. You just need to let Lilith be more scary too, and especially bc by “no one” I mostly mean Wen Qing; the angels are still totally hiding the fact that they, too, want to jumpstart the shit out of this apocalypse.  LWJ decides at the last minute that that’s a bad idea actually, gets himself discorporated to send JC to intercept WWX because he accidentally releases Lucifer, etc. etc. Oh yeah, the boys were def fighting before this, bc JC has actually fairly reasonable concerns about the sort of things WWX is getting up to in his quest to become King of Hell...
SO
...I neither know nor care what happens in s5
it does end with both Lucifer and Michael locked in the cage probably, bc I rather liked that solution. Fuck both of ‘em, basically.
I was toying with the idea that WWX also found Madam Yu in whatever hellish torment she was suffering after making a deal so her idiot son(s) would survive, and she was leading forces for him in the war against Lilith as well. If she came back to life somehow, body and all, it’d probably be compelling if she offered her own body to Michael - bc it’s her lineage! - and we’re all led to believe that she’s, uh, being a bitch and actually wants to risk destroying the world in order to destroy all demons...but then she seizes back control and flings herself/Michael and Lucifer into the Pit, because she’s just That Hardcore?
which means we’d actually have had her around and having characterization for most of s4-5, too, which would be fun
More importantly, it ends with newly crowned King of Hell Wei Wuxian appointing Wen Qing as Queen-Regent and ditching to go on an indefinite honeymoon with his new angel boyfriend (they’re going to fuck for like three weeks straight, then roll up their sleeves and go conquer Heaven in the name of free will), and Jiang Cheng gets to live out his hitherto-unknown-to-himself life’s ambition to be the sugar baby of the Queen of Hell. It’s very Hades/Persephone, except he goes back down to the underworld at least once a month. He gets his own demon squad whom he trains up in all the hunting techniques and it’s gr9. Wen Qing is reforming the crossroads deal process to make it more fair to the humans.
the end
Addenda:
it should go without saying but Jiang Yanli is definitely a recurring character, like, at least once a season there’s a filler episode where they go to Jiang Yanli’s for dinner and have to get along as a family, and also do the much easier job of defeating some sort of terrible demon that gets loose in the bunker and turns the evening into a horror movie. She’s their main research/emotional check-in person, a la Bobby, more often appearing in later seasons when there’s, uhhh, more to emotionally check in about.
Jin Zixuan is actually a perfectly competent hunter; he’s just a priss and we don’t Like him
we like Mianmian, though. Oh, I guess the official Hunter’s Guild or w/e tries to declare WWX a public enemy on account of the whole “King of Hell” thing and she’s like “actually what if you’re morons and assholes?” and joins hte team in s4 or 5? Yeah.
idk how the 3zun disaster happens in this ‘verse but I do encourage it to be happening in slow motion as a recurring subplot for several seasons. NMJ is a hunter, LXC is obv an angel, and JGY is...I wanna say one of the more human monsters, like a vampire? Or, you know, something that could be born from JGS sleeping with someone/something he shouldn’t have

Enemies to Lovers!AU with Xiaojun
Tumblr media
Group: NCT [+ WayV]
Member: Xiaojun / Xiao Dejun
Genre: fluff, comedy, romance 
Type: Bulletpoint AU 
Word Count: approx. 2.4k
so, you’re Xiaojun’s enemy (he thinks of it more of his number one attacker tho)
it wasn’t hard considering he’s always on fight or flight mode and considering his friend group….
fight mode is always activated
(ง’̀-‘́)ง
so it started when you became friends with Ten
the guy is so sociable, so you were bound to meet him and his other friends someday
but jesus christ, there were soooo many of them
it was a party; he threw a literal party of just him and his friends
and then there were others who turned it into a rave (i.e. Hendery, Yangyang, Chenle and Donghyuk)
anyways, you got to mingle and make so many new friends
it was going really well
until Xiaojun entered the picture
things went well with him too, until you made a joke that didn’t exactly land with him
but it landed well with the others
Lucas: “who in their right mind would like mint chocolate”
Xiaojun: “but I like mint chocolate”
You: “then you’re not in your right mind lmao”
YangYang: “I mean, is Xiaojun ever in his right mind tho”
everyone laughs
except for one person
Xiaojun stood up, staring you down for a hot second, before trying to argue back
in which YangYang was the main responder
you didn’t really think much of it, laughing away with the others
but, to him, you just declared war that day
it shouldn’t have bothered him as much as it did
but it did
so, from then on, things just got rockier
bc he started picking fights with you over the littlest things or he would argue with your points no matter what
you didn’t really think much of it bc he was also being picked on everyone else and you were like
every man for themselves huh
it wasn’t until he personally attacked you
it happened on Halloween
and he made an underhanded comment about how he’d look better in anything compared to you
so you made a “friendly” bet
but then you lost
bc Xiaojun looked better in the Jasmine costume than you and he def knew it too
and when he smirked at you
the grudge had been built
that’s probably when the mutual enemy status circulated around your friends
although, if they’re being honest, it’s so entertaining
especially since most of them like to gang up on Xiaojun too
and because of that unity, it’s only made things worse
from what the others can tell
you two don’t hate each other, but you def don’t get along
it ranges to food (e.g. mint chocolate chip incident that NO ONE lets go)
Lucas: “mint choco ain’t shit”
You: “retweet”
Xiaojun: “the attacks”
YangYang: “we cannot trust a man who eats bread with fucking lao gan ma”
You: “you eat what with bread?”
Xiaojun: “shut up. all of you.”
to activities
cue you two fighting about what movie to watch
Xiaojun: “Titanic is a classic!!!”
You: “it’s a joke, there was rOOM ON THE FUCKING DOOR”
Xiaojun: “IT’S ROMANTIC. HE SACRIFICED HIMSELF SO SHE CAN LIVE.”
You: “THAT’S NOT ROMANTIC. THAT’S SUICIDAL, DUMBASS.”
this feud is def bc you’re both petty as fuck
the bickering is nonstop
but, if the nct boys are being honest
they’re lowkey confused bc Xiaojun is supposed to have a really high emotional tolerance
he doesn’t even yell this much at YangYang or Ten
(excluding that one time he hit YangYang with that pillow very hard)
but he does blow off his top when it comes to you
which is sus to a lot of the boys
whenever someone does ask him tho
he just kind of……………
mumbles underneath his breath and then moves onto something else
meanwhile, Yuta: “isn’t he always like that?”
Kun: “who wants to tell him”
lmao, I’m kidding
kind of
anyways, you two are really just going at it
what changes?
you have to go to the dentist and get your molars removed
which means someone has to take you and go pick you up
obviously, Ten was going to do that, considering you two were the closest
so he dropped you off and you had your surgery
so what happened?
welp, your buddy Ten forgot he had a prior engagement and, hence, was unable to pick you up
cue him spamming the groupchat
and Lucas exposing Xiaojun
Lucas: Xiaojun isn’t doing anything Xiaojun: you don’t know that Lucas: I do tho, go pick up (Y/N) Ten: I’ll buy you anything from that green tea cafe you like for a week Xiaojun: deal.
so he came to pick you up, both willingly and unwillingly
and you……. you were more than a hot mess 
you were just a mess 
you basically were just blacked out that entire time after they gave you the laughing gas and completed the surgery
so you remembered absolutely nothing.
your roommate: “this is what you get for doing drugs”
You: “IT WAS PURELY FOR MEDICINAL USE”
You: “IT’S NOT LIKE I DID CRACK”
either way, your roommate let you know of the situation, taking note of how your enemy had to take you home
which
again
no recollection
your roommate: “he’s fucking hot tho”
You: “ugh, I know”
but that’s also when you decided
Ten is a dead man :)
Ten: “I’M SORRY”
You: “YOU BETTER FUCKING BE”
Ten: “I KNOW”
Ten: “............................................but………………………………….”
Ten: “maybeyoushouldalsothankhimfortakingcareofyou”
You: “sorry not sorry, I’m contemplating murder rn”
Hendery: “what do you call a murder against a friend?”
Kun: “don’t”
Ten:
You:
Hendery: “it’s a homie-cide”
You and Ten: “NOT NOW”
anyways
you knew he was right
so after you calmed down, you went to Xiaojun’s place (thanks to Ten), with some sweets to thank him
Lucas opened the door, let you in, and left to go to the gym with Sicheng
Xiaojun came out of his room, a couple of minutes after, disheveled from his nap
and when he saw you in his living room couch, his eyes widened, darting around to avoid looking at you
You: “hi”
Xiaojun: “hello”
You: “why do you look so scared? I’m not gonna jump you”
he stays quiet, the blush becoming more apparent on his cheeks
You: “Ten told me you took me home after my surgery, so…………………… thanks”
Xiaojun: “he bribed me with pastries”
You: yeah, sounds about right
You: “still”
You: “um, I didn’t know what you would like, so I brought some sweets you can just go through”
Xiaojun: “thanks”
it’s silent for another moment and you consider bolting out from the apartment, Wizards of Waverly Place, Harper-style: “see ya in p.e.!” kind of a thing
but he speaks up once more
Xiaojun: “are you feeling okay now?”
You: “uh, yeah, my jaw still kind of hurts”
You: “but I have meds they prescribed to me for the next month or so”
he decides to stop beating the bush: 
Xiaojun: “so do you remember what happened yesterday?”
You: “to be completely honest, no”
Xiaojun: “you… did a lot of things”
You: “what do you mean I did a lot of things”
Xiaojun: “you also said a lot of things too”
You: “..... are these things recorded?”
Xiaojun: “maybe”
Xiaojun: “some”
You: “dELETET HEM”
you actually considered tackling him, but deemed as too Yang-Yang-like
You: “what did I say”
Xiaojun: “I didn’t realize you thought I was handsome”
You: “wait what?”
Xiaojun: “you said, you had a crush on my ‘fine ass’”
You: “you know what? I think I’m gonna pull a Jack and commit suicide, goodbye”
Xiaojun: “ah, ah, ah, you said like, which is… present tense”
You: “semantics”
Xiaojun: “but did you like me at some point?”
You: “does it matter?”
Xiaojun: “yeah, it kind of does”
Xiaojun: “bc even tho we bicker, it’s, like, our thing”
Xiaojun: “plus, you’re kind of cute when you’re threatening to rip off my eyebrows”
You: “I did what?”
Xiaojun: “it’s no different from how you treat me now”
You: “I thought it’s because you don’t like me”
he just kind of shrugs, rubbing his neck rather sheepishly
Xiaojun: “you’ve seen my friends; arguing is our way of showing our affections”
You: “so, you’re saying this is your way of telling me you like me?”
Xiaojun: “I mean………“
Xiaojun: “are you saying you like me?”
You: “are you saying you like me?” 
*cue another argument about who likes who*
eventually, he found a way to shut you up
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
cut to Lucas and Sicheng coming back from the gym to you and Xiaojun making out on the couch
Lucas: “NASTY”
Sicheng: “what did we…. miss?”
Ten somewhere: I fucking called it.
anyways
you both decided to date that day
and you two still bicker an insane amount, which includes you nitpicking Xiaojun’s tastes to Xiaojun refusing to delete those videos of you under the laughing gas despite your threats
but, the only difference is, your arguments can end with a kiss
and it always freaks out the guys whenever you do
Donghyuk: “I’m too young to be seeing this monstrosity”
Mark: “ngl, this is nice for them—they’ve stopped arguing”
YangYang: “I weirdly prefer them arguing over them with those sappy eyes tho”
You: “we can hear you”
Chenle: “but when have we ever cared?”
You: “I’m gonna beat your ‘01 liner ass istg—”
Xiaojun: “calm”
oh, you know what’s fun about your relationship?
you two can’t agree on some stuff right?
so whenever you have to decide something, say a movie or dinner, you two just heads-or-tails it
(there’s also this cute app where you put your options on a wheel and let that decide—the amount of times you’ve used that on your dates…… anyways)
most of the time, on these dates, you seem more like an old married couple and it’s super cute
it’s bc you’re already used to your worse sides coming out—the really petty ones, the screaming ones, the ugly ones
ofc these aren’t from serious arguments that occur
(remember folks, it isn’t healthy for you and your partner to always be fighting)
but when serious arguments do occur, you both take time to sit down and talk face-to-face
it’s hard to get into actual arguments with him, especially since he really is understanding and tries to pay attention to the smaller details
Xiaojun: “I like learning more about you”
You: “you can’t just say that kind of shit to me”
like, yeah, he’ll debate with you all night about why he needs to read the words of his book out loud but, by the end of the day, you’ll lay your head in his lap and listen to his voice as you fall asleep
speaking of which, you love listening to him sing to you
he gets a bit embarrassed sometimes about it, but seeing you smile so brightly at him makes him forget about it
because even tho you two bicker about little things, in the end, it just makes you two laugh at one another and how ridiculous you’re being
I almost forgot, so Ten thinks of him pairing you two off right?
so, whenever he does something annoying to either of you, he’ll constantly bring it up
Ten: “I guess this is how you two treat me, your personal cupid—”
Xiaojun: “yes, yes, we are grateful for you”
You: “but it would be nice if you would stop making those annoying sounds”
Ten: “what annoying sounds?”
YangYang: “that’s just you talking”
okay, no, but yeah—the nct boys are glad this rivalry is over because it was really just…. stupid to the core
but also bc you two look super sweet together and seeing you two making each other happy rather than annoyed is adorable
but just bc you two got together doesn’t mean the pettiness isn’t still there
You: “what type of freak sleeps with their eyes opened?”
Xiaojun: “I’m sleeping next to you, of course I need to keep both eyes open”
You: “RUDE”
Xiaojun: “and yet here we are”
You: “son of a bitch”
Xiaojun: “YOUR son of a bitch”
You: “eh, I’ll take it”

ULTIMATUM
Tumblr media
Vol8 ep 10 lets start things off with a BANG
Tumblr media
Welp... that is it. Shows over. Everybody died. The End.
Yeah, so... Oscar popped the Holy Hand Gernade. Guessing it was kinda silver eyes/anti grimm magic because people in the blast came out unscathed? Well, except for Hazel, but big guy was already on fire from that crystal he chomped.
AceOps...Winter and Marrow def have had enough of this shit. Elm and Vine, still iffy. Harriet...
About damn time soneone answered their scroll.
Good, they aint trusting Emerald...and despite Oscars assurances, doesn't look like the are giving Oz a free pass either.
Yeah... Ironwood came off as an arrogant ass to me way back in vol2, I chalked up my initial reaction to him as an enlisted mans natural aversion to top brass. But everything he said and did from Yangs 1v1 tourney fight on just made me dislike him more. I made a few rants in the past about the state of Atlas military, its shoddy security protocols, its piss poor tactics, its crippling reliance on high tech... it all comes down to the arrogance of the guy in charge. Ironwood cannot see past his own brilliance. There is no other path to victory but him. You know who else thought that way? Publius Quinctilius Varus and George Armstrong Custer.
Ok... So now the mask is completely off. Ironwood never gave a crap about Mantle. Any way this plays out in Jimmy bois head, Mantle dies. Penny doesnt show? He bombs the crater. Penny shows? He cuts and runs, and since he destroyed the SDC fleet that could have evaced them, A slow death to the cold, starvation and grimm.
The Atlas military. This is what you get when you put a heavy emphasis on Loyalty and Follow Orders. Yes, you want soldiers that will obey the order to hold the line against overwhelming odds, to charge headfirst into fire to take out enemy positions. You do NOT want soldiers that will unhesitantly fire on civilians. Whatever is left of the Atlas military after this, all the high brass needs rounding up and fired. Junior officers and enlisted retrained.
Bree you brown nosing, boot licking, backstabbing little cunt.
Watts! Hoy, slapping Cinder in the face with scalding tea.
So, bee fans, how ya feeling?
Yup. That is it. Jimmy boy has gone and done it. No way is he breaking the streak of dead Headmasters in team RWBYs wake. Qrows gunning for him. If Robyn heard that broadcast, shes gunning for him. Ruby just might snap and go after him. Watts programming might just work, and Penny goes boom on him. Cinder is on her way... Its going to be a glorious clusterfuck.

guardian characters in the cql universe
(heres the fic btw)
- zhao yunlan as wei wuxian. obviously. we’ve got the emotionally abusive parent and everything 
- shen wei as lan wangji. stoic, repressed, would look stunning in light blue robes. also can u imagine the twin jades actually being twins? 
“The Twin Jades of Gusu were carved from the same flawless stone, but they couldn’t have been more different if they tried. Shen Wei was cool and aloof, the unapproachable kind of beauty, steady and silent. Ye Zun was all wicked smiles and a light that lured you in, the kind of spark that would burn just as soon as warm.”
this is where it starts to get complicated:
- yunmeng zhao?
- wang zheng as jiang yanli. i mean, who else would be yanli? and she’s got a connection with zyl already. also sang zan would make a pretty good jin zixuan, what with his being a dick and then getting better XD
- zhu hong as jiang cheng. hear me out- at first i was thinking da qing, but i feel like he’s much less likely to go all furious and sharp, meanwhile i can see zhu hong with zidian clear as day. (wait, what would red lightning be in chinese?)
- li qian as wen qing. is this just me pushing my zhu hong wlw agenda? maybe 👀
- xiao guo as wen ning. i feel like this is pretty self explanatory
- da qing as nie huaisang. tell me thаt you can’t see him as a carefree troublemaker together with zyl, but after (older brother? father?) dying and being forced to take over the sect? i could definitely see him becoming a mastermind with a foolproof cover of pretending to be utterly useless
- this leaves me with lin jing and chu shuzhi and honestly, i have no idea what to do with them... lin jing could be huaisang but where would that put da qing? unless i wanna try to add the juniors to the mix. but i dont have enough guardian characters for that i think
- ye zun would’ve made a pretty good jgy... but i kinda want shen wei to have a non-traumatized brother? hhhhhh who else would fit the bill? guess we dont get twin jades or twin heroes. but if it was ye zun, i could see him being kidnapped as a kid and shen wei def thinks he’s dead but enemy chieftan (jgs?) having soeone tell him he was his bastard son and maybe maybe one day he’ll be accepted again
- WAIT WHAT IF YE ZUN HAD HIS MEMORY WIPED AND ALWAYS WORE A MASK (then we could have twin jades and jgy!ye zun)
- that would have made zhu jiu a perfect su she. idk if he’s cool enough to be xue yang
- WAIT! REGENT AS SU SHE OMG HOW DID I NOT THINK OF THIS
-im tempted to make chu shuzhi nie mingjue... thats the only thing i can think of for him (guess that means no chu nianzhi sorry)
-that still leaves no ideas for lin jing... unless he’s uncle four 😂

RWBY V8E4 LiveThoughts
And were back at it again, this week with turkey and Italian preserved sausage as a snack! Lets see what RT has for us this week.
Oh, 20 minutes. Are they normally this long?
Oh, wait, the openings almost 2 minutes long. Thats more like it.
And now to Robyn and Qrow. Seems Robyns actually liking Qrow a little bit now. 
Guess the cells aren’t secured if a fly got into Schnee’s. This a “Fly on Mike Pence’s face” reference?
Qrow sounds more growly again. Did he get smacked back two seasons by Clover dying?
If by “darkness” you mean “Tyrian” then, yes. Also dude, its Clover. He was shit anyway. All the Aces are shit. Dont feel too bad about him.
And he’s got a point too. If Clover had thought with his head instead of his dick (yes, Im sure they were gonna fuck, Fair Games totally a thing), he probably wouldnt be dead now, and Tyrian would be the one with the sword through his chest.
But of course this is RWBY and V7/8 so things cant go their ways.
Ouch. Deep thoughts of Qrow. And some interesting stuff from Robyn too. I still think I’d prefer hopeandharmonizing’s Briar, though.
Marrows glare gives me life. Hare’s just a moron right now though, but thats no real surprise. She’s immature emotionally.  Honestly, shes...kind of like a less bad version of our current President. Always has to be the best at everything, fastest, leader, whatever.
Thats probably why this is grating on her so much. Even though shes TECHNICALLY the Ace’s leader now (I think? Seemed like she was Clovers lieutenant, so by rate of succession she’s in command now)
A glance at the little floating control pad... “Clerance access only”. Okay, that...seems weird. Shouldnt it say something like authorized personell only? Maybe it means access by clerance only or something.
Then Robyn’s name, and then process ID 4591-27. No idea what thats useful for but its there.
Also Marrow seems to be the only competent member of the Aces rn. 
Ah now we get to see some of the hills around Atlas. For those of you who have seen my headcanons on the Hunter-Killers and their base of operations, Fortress Academy, its out in these hills somewhere.
The music sounds like a boss fight.
The screen on Ren’s hoverbike reads “HVB Rhino” and “HD5800″ I can only assume HVB stands for “hoverbike” and Rhino must be its name, like how the dropships are Mantas. No clue what the number is. 
Also apparently the cold in Solitas is so bad it corrupts machinery?
Ahh, good, some action. Lets see what we get now. Ohh, teamwork. And again, signs that aura allows you to move faster and farther than a normal human
Heh, it really is like a boss fight, like the chase scene at the end of the first Viking level in For Honor.
Oh, and it can call for reenforcements literally out of nowhere? Or is the whole tundra of Solitas just CRAWLING with Grimm?
Yes, yes it did just call for backup, Yang. Maybe these are all forward scouts and ambush units from the Grimmstorm. They did say its the biggest...
Another banger from Casey Lee Williams...
What the hell happened in Solitas to cause this geography? Seriously, its a line of bridges over a gap in two cliffs...that cant be natrual, not that equal in distance.
Man, those bikes didnt even last half an episode...I guess thats fair, they are facing obsurd odds. Or maybe they just want Yang to be the only one with a bike.
And there goes the dropwall. Woops.
Also you can just kinda see it but they bounce off the rock and thats why they slow down. Useful.
Also this part with them falling off the edge reminds me of the ending cutscene of Halo 4s Forerunner level, where Chief flies out of a portal and almost goes sailing off a cliff in a Ghost.  Except here, the bike stays on the land and THEY go off the cliff.
I paused at just the right time cause YANGS FACE XD
Holy shit what are Ren’s weapons cables MADE OF? The one atop him is holding him AND the weight of his two teammates. And the one below has both Jaune and Yang. No sign of slippage or breackage at all. 
Ahhh there’s the whaleship (Monstra? Fuck it Im gonna keep calling it the whaleship). So yeah my headcanon now is the mountain its right next too is Menachite, where Fortress is. 
Oh hey back to the Schnee manor of all things! Does...this mean military invasion of the Schnee grounds. Hey Whitley. Lesbians are here. 
Someone make a video cut of Weiss banging on the door to the “Knock knock open up the door its real!” part of that one song.
Hehehehhe. Nice Weiss.
Also convenient about the house staff. Good thing RT doesnt need to animate them or Willow now...
I hope the staff took some of the silverware and some paintings on the way out.
Why is MAY the one carrying Nora.
Ah so now they’re stuck out there with no cell service. Hehe.
Ah okay so the cold in Solitas DOES eat aura. Good, my headcanon still kind of stands. 
I wonder, does wearing proper cold weather clothing (like bundled up stuff) help? Or does it cut right through...
Why is JAUNE the one hauling the bike? Isnt Yang the strongest? Or maybe they take turns.
Ahhh inter-team talking. Also, outpost. Hmm. Atlas one? Overrun if I had to guess. Unless he saw Fortress. Which I doubt.
I do love the circling shot here, with the light on Yang’s hair and the shadows on Ren. Its...really artistic and emotional. GREAT WORK RT. 
Rens got points. And hes saying stuff I myself have been saying for ages, which is good. I wonder why this is how Ren is now...working with the Ace Ops? Being afraid of loosing Nora? No one tell him what happened last episode.
Also, Jaune’s hair seems to have gotten less crazy in recent episodes. It looks less like a banana and more like a close tactical cut.
Yangs got a point.
Ahhh and now we get to see the inside of the whale. 
SALEM FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP SHOWING THE FUCK OFF. SERIOUSLY. WE GET IT. 
...this is gonna be a really criingy torture section, isnt it.
Someones gonna take that “hound didnt break you” line in the WRONG direction 
It is amusing the only thing holding Oscar down is the Hound actually. 
Ah so they’re still searching the remains of Beacon.
Also I like how Salem calls them “her forces” as if its anything but a random bunch of expendable monsters. Like, bruh, you cant search anything with THAT.
Ignoring the boring chat between these two, notice how the Hound’s shoulder literally flexes and shifts when Salem touched it. I dont think this thing is solid at all aside from the head and the bone claws...the whole thing is just amorphous Grimm material that can adapt to whatever situation it requires. A specialist unit. A...Hunter hunter.
Yo what the fuck was that. Magic? Huh. Did we actually SEE magic for once in the show? Only took us 8 FUCKING SEASONS...
Doesnt seem to be anything but an energy blast/pain never firing though. I assume his auras still gone, cause its completely singed his shirt, but it didnt do much else.
...Im not impressed.
She really needs to stop touching his face, its creeping me out.
HAHA SHE CANT DO IT HERSELF SHE HAS TO RELY ON HAZEL BEATING THE SHIT OUT OF HIM. I think we know where she stands now, doesnt she...say what you will about her letting Hazel have his vengeance (which is very valid, even he admits hit), but me? I think she A) cant actually beat up on Ozma herself because she still cares and B) shes almost out of magic too. Its weakened as the Gods have been gone and shes been forced to rely on the Grimm and on pawns. Basically, once she and Oz are both gone? That’s it for magic. Remnant will belong to the Grimm...and to technology. 
At which point without Oz around to hold them back Atlas is going to go fucking BONKERS and basically ensure the Grimm get pushed back into a corner and then finally permenantly STAMPED OUT.
More Whale insides. Seems like most of its empty grandious spaces. Or possibly muscle? Hard to tell. Either way theres a lot of open air in there...with tight corridors. If you fired a thermobaric warehead into one of the chambers the resulting blastc could possibly blow the doors off and send a raging fireball through the entire thing...Hmm. Filing that away for later.
NEO IS SO SHORT ITS FUNNY TO ME. I know its just positioning BUT SHE LOOKS EVEN SHORTER IN THIS SHOT THAN USUAL.
More note on the Hound; the “flesh” around its right shoulder spike actually sinks down when it stops moving. Its neck shifts and moves too, like the material isnt solid, but recirculating.
I also dont see any eyes. And it looks like it has some kind of...forehead mouth? Def looks like teeth down the ridge of its spine.
Oh boy yeah that...whole thing is basically melting in on itself.
I wont lie; hearing Cinder get berated by CORTANA (and yes, I still hear Cortana in Salem, espeically now that the two characters are kind of one and the same, both megalomaniacal leaders of giant armies, bar the fact that one of them is about a TRILLION times more dangerous than the other because one of them has access to Guardian Custodies and the other one is...well kind of lame and has to have beefy dudes beat up on small children etc) is pleasing to me. 
Get fucked, Cinder.
And THERE is Cortana again too.
Neo Marry Popins’s Ya’lling is fucking CUTE. And I love her little smirk.
Wait the whale’s that close?
..oh my...hold on.
...thats it. THATS ATLAS’S AIR FLEET!?!
12 AIRSHIPS? 12? EXCUSE ME!?
ARE YOU LEGITAMETLY TELLING ME THE BIGGEST MILITARY ON REMNANT HAS FEWER AIRSHIPS THAN THE SMALLEST NAVY ON EARTH HAS FRIGATES? YOUR FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT? THERE HAS TO BE MORE SOMEWHERE. THIS IS A JOKE, A STRAIGHT UP FUCKING JOKE.
...
No, thats...thats it. Thats Atlas’s airfleet. 12 tiny vessels. I swear it was bigger last season...
...HA! HAHA! HA! Oh, Ironwood, and Atlas as a whole...you deserve everything your about to get. I hope you die SCREAMING, and that when your bodies fall bleeding and shattered to Mantle, the people down there will realize that, no. You cant just assume Hunters will do all the work for you
THIS IS REMNANT. ITS KILL OR BE KILLED. YOU EITHER MAKE A FORCE POWERFUL ENOUGH THAT THE GRIMM RUN FROM YOU  OR YOU DIE INSTEAD. ATLAS FAILED. NOW THEY SUFFER.
Emerald stop simpin.
Also that is...the SHITTEST outpost...I have ever seen in my life. My overall thought process of Atlas is...sinking even LOWER than before. 
Though it seems more like a waystation. Bed, Dust, some dudes coat on it. Dead heater. Its probably a rest spot for Specialists out in the tundra.
Ren does the emo sit. Lol. Yang even says it. Brood himself to death.
Alright whats this now...something forcing itself out of the tundra?
And thats it for today! Cool ass concept art at the end there too.
