The scene was powerful in the book, but there was just something about watching reaper collect the bodies of the dead tributes in the arena. The way he removes the weapons from their hands, lays them out nicely, giving them the smallest bit of dignity in death. The contrast to the capitol gasping in shock as he pulls down the flag, not in rebellion, but in mourning. The way mourning in the hunger games IS an act of rebellion. “How are you going to punish me now?” The feed then immediately cutting to the news of the death of one capitol boy, whose death will be avenged upon those who had nothing to do with it. Only certain deaths are allowed to mean anything. God. Suzanne Collins knows what she’s doing.

Just imagining Dipper's parents finally trying to get their shit together and rekindle their relationship with the twins after several years of almost no contact, only to show up in town and 1. Dipper doesn't recognize them at first, and 2. When they remind him who they are, his brain scrambles for a second because, in his head, his "Dad" is already in the shack, scamming groups of tourists for loose change. He nearly goes, "huh? But my dad is-," and points to the shack, before catching up with his brain and realizing who he's talking to

Out of all the ships, which would you say are the most heavily implied in-game?
generally i have a rule of no shipping on this blog and will ignore any asks i get about it but you know what i'll do this one because idk sounds fun. and also if it's canon i get free pass.
the thing you have to remember is that this is an idol game. idol games/franchises like love live/bandori/enstars etc are known for ship baiting to hell and back but never actually doing anything about it because, well, money. even though they'll tease at lots of ships because that way you make more fans happy the writers often have more obvious favorites (sometimes if one that they don't really write becomes popular within fandom they'll add it in as well), and this is definitely the case with project sekai. will they ever make any characters be official couples? i dunno, but it's unlikely unless they decide to pull a D4DJ (that said prsk isn't subtle about the fact that Mizuki is trans and they did address that gay people exist that one time, so there's always a chance). anyway
it's explicitly stated in the text that An views the events of Buddy Funny Spend Time as romantic. In her Peak Excitement card story she calls it a date and the way that she, her dad and Mizuki talk about it is in a not-platonic way. Out of the four from that event though, she is the only one who seems to view it as an actual date. So she's canonically romantically interested in Kohane. Oh and Kohane is attracted to her and is very heavily implied to reciprocate if the An wedding event wasn't obvious enough about it.
also i wrote this that one time
other than that there's definitely some other instances of characters showing attraction to each other, and some things that are very much written to have romantic undertones that fans can interpret in that way if they choose to, and also the use of daisuki on like 6 ships (which is the idol game's favorite word for love because it's more ambiguous), and some cover songs that are explicitly romantic but then again you can do the "it's just a song" excuse. the above two examples are the most explicitly stated ships though. at the end of the day at least we technically have two canon ships even if it's only confirmed in the text from one side and they aren't dating because as long as the feelings are there that's really what counts as canon, right? like who cares if they're dating it's incredibly unlikely that the game will ever do that so it's not really worth arguing over which ones are more likely to date.

For all Bruce’s flaws, in the comics it took him about 2 seconds to realize something was up with Tim’s parents. You could say this is part of Bruce’s parenting that is slightly better in canon than fanon, but it’s also maybe just because 13 year old Tim in comics didn’t have as much brain-to-mouth filter as fanon Tim seems to, so he told on his parents as soon as Bruce & Alfred asked about them. There is no dodging questions to keep his parents out of trouble, he just says concerning stuff and expects no one to do anything about it I guess.

insane how much people are tied to a fictional teenager’s misogyny. no one cared when they cast a white actor or whatever else many changes they make but the second Netflix says they’re making sokka less of a piece of shite it’s an insult to the story because you’re just so fucking attached to the “redemption” of misogynistic men and boys by women and girls !!!

ghaksdfh;akdshg not to get back on this topic but julius 'keeping ludger secret' is just SO FUNNY and fucking RIDICULOUS
the man is fucking famous, he has groupies. you're telling me that none of them ever saw julius and ludger grocery shopping together and wondered who the lil guy was? bisley never heard anyone talking about it?
walkin around the same city. changed name. acquired a child. had to register that child in things like daycare and school, so the records are There for anyone who looks. at least in the eng translation he even supposedly talks about ludger with coworkers and shows them pictures???? bro you are the fucking Worst secret keeper
literally the only reason any of it worked out like julius wanted is because bisley did. not. care. LMFAOOOOOOO literally julius that's the only reason you 'got away' with jack shit. every time i think about this i just break down laughing

Ok so a little PSA ig:
I don’t really care if minors interact with my blog but like the one thing I do ask is maybe that they just don’t interact with any nsfw stuff that I post (especially on ao3) (not that I post a lot of it) like believe me I get it I was a minor once (very, very recently) and had zero sense of internet safety or anything like that and didn’t really care when someone said ‘minors dni’ (which I now do understand is very wrong) but like if your not gonna listen to me could you please just lurk in the shadows or smth maybe
Ok thanks <3
