i remember hearing that the writers for the sonic boom tv show said that shadow was a very difficult character to write because sega is so picky about how he should be portrayed and thats why they saved him for season finale episodes only. so he could still be in the show but they wouldnt have to go back and forth with sega about what they can and cant do with him as much as they would have if he was a main character. anyway maybe thats part of the reason theres no alternate shadows in sonic prime. because sega was annoying about it and the writers didnt feel like dealing with it lmao
#but then again part of what made it so hard i think is because sonic boom was a comedy show and sega didnt think#shadow should be a very funny character? or something like that? and while sonic prime does have its jokey moments#comedy isnt the main focus unlike sonic boom#so maybe it would be easier to get a lot of shadow screentime in sonic prime than it would be in sonic boom#and they planned for there to be no alternate shadows from the start? idk im just saying stuff#personally i dont really like the way shadow is written in sonic boom. like some of the jokes involving him are funny but#overall. that is NOT my friend shadow the hedgehog#so im hoping if the next sonic prime episodes have more shadow than the first batch#then he is Nothing like he was in sonic boom#currently i am still on the fence about prime shadow. like they at least gave him a reason to be mad this time#instead of just having him fight with sonic all the time for no reason. which is a good start. but im still unsure#since hes had so little screentime so far#and they also pulled the ''put shadow in a bunch of the promotional stuff only for him to barely be there at all'' thing Again#but. to be fair. we're only on episode 8 out of what. 24? theres plenty more time for him to make more appearances#see i am also very picky about how shadow should be portrayed but me and whoever is in charge of him rn have very different ideas#of what the Right portrayal of shadow is#so while shadow is one of my favorite characters. whenever i see hes gonna be in some new thing#im more concerned about if theyre gonna fuck everything up again than i am excited to see him

Some Things Never Change
Hello, lovely Moshers. I have Mami brain rot so I figured I would put these thoughts out in the world. I hope you enjoy it.
Rhea x Fem reader!
“7…8..9…and 10” Rhea grunted setting the weights down. 
“That was…great.” You mumbled behind the camera. 
“Hey, thanks for coming along today princess. I don’t really do the whole “social media” thing so it helps that you’re here.” 
“WWE really wants me to post and…blah blah” is what it started to sound like to you as you watched Rhea wipe her sweat with her towel. 
It was insane how even the slightest movement made her look like a Greek goddess. You had always had a crush on her but she had only gotten more gorgeous over time. 
Rhea was your older sister's friend. You were only one grade apart so you basically grew up together. She always was kind to you. All you had to do was say please and she would spend her allowance on you as quickly as she got it. She even beat the shit out of one of the boys in your grade after they pushed you on the playground once.
High school was a different story though. Over the summer you turned sixteen everything changed. Your braces were off and you learned how to dress you had a newfound confidence. And you were determined to use it to be with Rhea. But no matter how much you flirted she would just say “Very cute princess”. 
She was always interested in wrestling. Your sister, Iris, and Rhea would try out moves they saw on the last episode of RAW and Smackdown on each other so it was no surprise when she started taking wrestling more seriously. She started coming around your house less and less until she was gone. She didn't even say goodbye, no note or anything. Iris said she dropped her off with her parents at the airport and she left. 
You were so happy she finally got everything she wanted, but you had to admit it stung a little that that did not include you. 
You finally became content watching her shine from a distance until your sister called you out of the blue. 
“You have to come by the gym tomorrow I have a new client for you to shoot some social media content for.” 
And while you got ready throwing on your most average gym set and no makeup you were applauded when that client was your very own Rhea bloody  Ripley. 
“Is my work life that boring to you… Princess.” She winked at you. 
You grit your teeth at the nickname not knowing whether to blush or slap her. 
“Can you just go throw some heavy things around so I can quench the thirst of your fans?” You said, sounding more annoyed than you meant. Rhea noticed, giving you a soft smile. 
“Hey I know we did not leave off on the best terms but I still-” Rhea said rubbing the back of her neck before your sister approached interjecting.
“You’re almost done muscles, I got to pick up the kid from school.” She said distracted by her phone. 
“...I’ve only done one circuit of my workout, Ris. I got four more to go.” Rhea told Iris. 
They both stared at each other until Iris busted out laughing.
“You're a freak, Ripley.” 
She threw a set of keys at you barely managing to catch them.“Close up after ‘Mami’ is done with her workout.” Iris laughed at the nickname making Rhea flip her off as Iris headed for the door. 
You ran after her grabbing her arm. 
“Hey, you never said it would just be me and her.” You said kind of nervously. 
“Awww still have that schoolgirl crush on her?” Iris said too loudly making you sush her. 
“I do not! She chose her life after all and I wasn't part of it.” You said lowly. 
Iris frowned a bit “This is a good chance for you to talk to her then. Maybe let go of the past?” She said smiling at you before her phone rang. 
“Shit okay im late make sure to lock the back door too!” she said running to the door. Before you could stop her again she was gone and then it was just you…and Rhea. 
You sighed turning back around as Rhea looked like she was moving to the free weights. 
“Thank god she's gone now, it's only the cool kids.” Rhea joked with a smile, obviously trying to lighten the mood. 
You gave a polite smile in reply but kept it professional. “I'm going to record your back while you lift it seems like your fans like that the most.” You said grabbing your phone. 
“Uh yeah sure,” Rhea said slightly defeated. 
You recorded a few more clips of Rhea working out. It was hard to be mad at her when she looked this good working out. You needed to get out of there and take the coldest shower of your life. 
“All the footage looks good so you can pack up and I'll lock up behind you.” You said grabbing your bag and walking past Rhea. 
“Princess wait–” Rhea said grabbing your bag and getting your attention. 
“You know you could drop the nickname, we are not five anymore,” You snapped coldly. 
“Listen I know you're mad at me,” Rhea started.
“Mad? No, I passed mad a long time ago I'm furious Demi.” 
“Uh oh, the legal name.” she nervously laughed as you dropped your bag. 
“Cut the shit, do you want to talk or are you just going to keep trying to joke to make me forget you left without a word?”  You questioned, walking closer to her.
“Listen it was more complicated than that,” Rhea said gritting her teeth. 
“Complicated? No taxes are complicated saying goodbye to me was easy and yet Iris was the one who came home to tell me you were gone. I know I wasn't your best friend but I thought you thought of me better than that.” you said a tear rolling down your cheek
“Of course not I-” Rhea said 
“You what!? What was such a good excuse that you would move continents without even saying a word-”. 
“BECAUSE I LOVED YOU OKAY?” Rhea shouted stepping closer to you. 
You froze knowing she could not have possibly just said those words out loud. 
“I loved you okay…and it hurt too much to say goodbye…” Rhea said gently cupping your face and wiping your tears. 
“You….you loved me.” You were barely able to say above a whisper.
“I never stopped..” Rhea whispered back tilting your chin upward as she moved so her lips grazed yours. 
You gasped before your lips collided. It was soft and sweet. It's like she was apologizing over and over every fiber of her being went into your kiss. You moved your hands to her neck deepening your kiss trying to find any way to ground yourself. You have had dreams like this before and if this was one too you didn't want to wake up. 
The longer the kiss went on it felt like all the words unspoken between you both came spilling out in one rush. The kiss got needier and sloppier until you felt Rhea back you into a workout bench causing you to lay your back against it. 
Rhea leaned over you her lips traveling to your neck making you let out an embarrassing whimper. 
“God, do you know how long I have wanted you?” Rhea questioned her eyes fluttering to meet yours.
“God you were always flirting with me, batting your pretty eyelashes up at me like I was the only thing you wanted,” Rhea grunted moving her knee in between your legs and causing you to gasp. 
“And Ris noticed too. She said she would kill me if I ever even thought about taking you out on a date. So I pushed it down, dated other women.” Rhea said moving her hands underneath your shirt. 
“But I could never get you off my mind princess.” 
She whispered pinching your nipple. You moaned at her touch. Her callous hands massaging your breast her thumb grazing over your nipple over and over. Between that and her knee rubbing against you it was embarrassing the sounds you were letting out. 
“I never left your mind huh?” You caught your breath to ask. 
Rhea stopped looking up at you. 
“Then show me what you were thinking of all this time.” 
Rhea smirked immediately getting on her knees in front of the bench. 
You sat up going to protest until she grabbed your hips pulling you to the edge her mouth dangerously close to your heat.
“Anything for you…princess.” 
You opened your mouth to protest the nickname but a moan came out as you felt Rhea spread your legs exposing your core in your pink leggings. 
“Fuck I barely even touched you and you're soaked. Did seeing me flex turn you that much?.” Rhea mocked, using her thumb to rub over your clit. 
You hissed at the feeling.
“I can be mad at you and still think you are the most stunning woman I have ever seen.” 
Rhea laughed in appreciation at the comment. 
“So sassy even when you need something from me,” Rhea said pressing into your clit harder. 
You whined obviously wanting her to eat you out but she wouldn't fold so easily. 
“Good girls use their words, don't they?” Rhea raised an eyebrow looking up at you. 
“I--fuck you know what I want.” You bit your lip looking down at her. 
“Oh right, you're mad at me you probably want me to just stop rubbing right here–” 
You jumped a little as she pushed her thumb harder against the growing wet spot. 
“Fuck please eat me out, Rhea.” you moaned earning a hum from Rhea as she slowly pulled your leggings down. She made sure to kiss every inch of your thighs leaving light bites in some spots. 
You thought you would go crazy if you didn't get some friction and fast. As you opened your mouth to complain you finally felt her tongue on you. 
It was embarrassing the sounds that started escaping you but at this point, you didn't care. Mad or not at her she knew just the ways to move her tongue to make you forget all of that. 
She started off slow, moving her tongue in a light figure eight right on your clit. The warm sensation only built in your stomach as she started circling one finger around your hole. 
“Think you can take my fingers, sweetheart? “ She managed to mumble between your legs. You excitedly nodded as she slowly pushed one finger into her entrance your hands immediately flying to her hair. 
It was like she knew every spot by the way she curled her fingers up and flicked over your clit so well with her mouth. That warm feeling inside you was getting stronger and stronger. 
“Fuck me harder.” You blurted out catching Rhea by surprise. 
“Harder?” she questioned seeing you nod quickly before laughing. 
“Your wish is my command.” Rhea smiled before thrusting her fingers inside you so deliciously hard. 
Your eyes started to roll back and your legs began to shake. Just as you were slowly rushing to your peak Rhea made you dive as she began sucking on your clit, making you grip her hair and moan in ecstasy as you road out your high. 
Rhea put down your legs letting you rest for a moment while you tried to catch your breath. 
She smiled down at you softly helping you stand. 
“I know somewhere we could go to cool down.” You whispered in her ear.
The warm droplets of water bouncing off the tile echoed through the shower although that light and delicate sound was drowned out by the moans and wet sounds coming from the two of you. 
The sight was truly something sinful as Rhea stood under the water. Her hair glistened as the droplets ran down her toned abs hitting your face. 
You were on your knees with one of Rhea's legs over your shoulder eating her out like your life depended on it. 
Her raspy moans were honestly enough to get you off again but if that didn't it was her words. 
“Fuck you look so pretty on your knees for me princess.” Rhea moaned grabbing your hair in a tight fist.
Your eyes rolled back from that motion as she fucked her face on your tongue. 
“That's it, good girl, let mami fuck that pretty mouth.” She grunted as you hummed against her clit. This must have been the motion that set her off as she bucked her hips three times harder and harder and let out the most gorgeous sound you had ever heard.
You swallowed every drop of cum you could get as Rhea grabbed your neck to pull you up gently to kiss her. 
You both panted with your foreheads resting against each other as you both looked for the right words to say. 
“I meant every word I said,” Rhea whispered. 
“And I am so sorry I never said goodbye no matter how painful it was to me.” Rhea looked into your eyes searching for your emotion.
“Hmmm, I don’t know if I believe you.” You whispered back seeing the hurt in Rhea's eyes. 
“Buttttt” You quickly added. 
“I may have a few ways…and positions you can make it up to me in” You smiled kissing her cheek and turning away from her.
You gasped as she quickly smacked your ass as you walked away. 
“I could do this all day princess.”

YALL. everyone go watch story of kunning palace i swear it’s worth it im still riding an insane high after i finished it last night.
it’s a very good solid drama for 30 episodes kinda slow burn but well written with good characters and decent plots.
and then in the last 8 episodes, the guy’s sidekick tells him “maybe you should show her how you really feel. show her the real you” and he proceeds to go batshit feral insane. which after watching her pine after and then reject the most morally upright guy ever it fucking WORKS ON HER because she is ALSO insane!!
after that it’s just 8 episodes of him being sloppy desperate for her and begging her to give him an answer while she’s just there buffering because she has to readjust her whole worldview with this news that he’s liked her all along?? she went out to meet her former crush and when she got home he sat her down and made her eat a dinner he made. that was drowning in vinegar. because if he had to drink vinegar then SO SHOULD SHE. and after she doesn’t eat much at dinner he plops down a tray of her favourite cake. that he had given her before earlier in the drama. announces that he made it with his own hands. and she’s like :0 “you made it for me even back then?? but back then we were only….” and he’s immediately like “only? only what? what were we back then? what about now? is it different now? what are we?” and she’s just like .

VICE VERSA (RE)WATCH 2024
Tumblr media
with last twilight ending and no show to replace it on friday yet, i thought this might be a good time to do a vice versa community rewatch and maybe give an excuse to all the new jimmysea fans to watch the show for the first time if they didn't get around to it.
the schedule: from february 2 to may 9
as this is quite sudden and im hoping to reach as many people as possible, i thought we could do one episode per week, without having only a single set date but rather a range of days where each one of us can decide when to watch it. so the schedule would look like this:
feb 02 - feb 08: ocean blue (ep 1)
feb 09 - feb 15: forest green (ep 2)
feb 16 - feb 22: soft blush (ep 3)
feb 23 - feb 29: deep magenta (ep 4)
mar 01 - mar 07: winter white (ep 5)
mar 08 - mar 14: fire yellow (ep 6)
mar 15 - mar 21: sunset orange (ep 7)
mar 22 - mar 28: cloudy gray (ep 8)
mar 29 - apr 04: midnight black (ep 9)
apr 05 - apr 11: pink (ep 10)
apr 12 - apr 18: real red (ep 11)
apr 19 - apr 25: crystal clear (ep 12)
apr 26 - may 02: faded pink? (our skyy ep 1)
may 03 - may 09: multicolor (our skyy ep 2)
how to watch: youtube (main series + our skyy)
what to do: watch or rewatch the episodes
that's pretty much the only mandatory thing that is required to do, but if you feel like it you can also:
liveblog your watch
share your favorite scene(s) from the episode
pick your top weekly outfit
reblog old and new posts
create content like memes, fics, gifs, edits, etc.
anything you want!!!!!
if you do any of these tho, please tag your posts with #vvrewatch24 so people can find them!!!!
the main goal i hope to achieve with this is for everyone to just have fun and maybe find some comfort. a big thank you in advance to anyone who will consider participating or even just sharing this post!!!!

a dedication to someone that doesn’t deserve one

[text IDs: Image 1: AroarA, #6: “that the house is slowly on fire / that the house is slowly on fire // and I can't get you to leave it / and I can't get you to leave it // and I can't leave without you / and I can't leave without you”
Image 2: june gehringer, I love you, it looks like rain: “the worst part of love is / that I remember it. // I walk around all day thinking: I'm going to die in the universe you loved me in. // I get so jealous of euthanized dogs.“
Image 3: sue zhao: He asks: “"how do I get over somebody I never had?" And says: // I did not love you but I almost did. At one time, I might have loved you - at least, I felt I might have. If you were never loved by me, then nevertheless you were lovable to me. Last night I dreamt that your head lay on my stomach and traced the rise and fall of my breath. It felt complete natural - even though I knew once, we had left each other. Even though I knew we had wounded each other. In the dream state, forgiveness comes easily. I never loved you but I almost did. There are days when the breadth of ambiguity feels much worse. There are days I wish I would have loved you so I would know how to stop.
Image 4: ashstfu, tumblr: “girls vs getting over anythings thats ever happened to them in their life”
Image 5: ryebreadgf, tumblr: “YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK! YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK! YOU CAN BITE AND SCRATCH AND BEG BUT YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK!”
Image 6: sue zhao: “How often are you violent against yourself? Does it horrify you? Can you stop? Do you want to? And if you did, would you know how to?”
the last three sentences spanning from “Can you stop?” to “would you know how to?” have been underlined in blue
Image 7: rvbhleo, all caps: “WHAT IS THE POINT OF LUKEWARM LOVE? IF IM NOT DROWNING IN IT I HAVE NO DESIRE FOR IT”
Image 8: osamu dazai, no longer human, highlighted in pink: “the wound has gradually become dearer to me than my own flesh and blood”
Image 9: ojibwa, tumblr: “Grieving, grieving, constantly grieving./I mourn what could have been, what will not be, what I can't save.”
Image 10: ashstfu, tumblr: sometimes getting over something is accepting you will never get over it”
Image 11: anna ahkmatova, parting: “I am very calm. Only do not talk to me about him.”
Image 12: margaret atwood, more and more: “there is no reason for this, only a starved dog’s logic on bones”
Image 13: unknown, all caps: “OTHER BOYS ARE BORING AND YOU ARE A BURNING HOUSE I WANT TO LIVE IN”
Image 14: mahmoud darwish, formatted as if in dialogue between two people: “ -Do you have any weapons on you?” “-I have a longing that's killing me.” 
the second sentence is highlighted in yellow
Image 15: trista mateer, honeybee: “I've gotten so good/about not flinching at the sound of your name/that people don't know I'd still throw myself/mouth-open into the ocean/for the chance to drown somewhere you might see it.“
Image 16: yves olade, bloodsport: “All that/matters is that you want to hurt me. // All that matters is that you want me/Say the word & I'll burn for ten days.”
Image 17: unknown, all caps: “LETS GO TO THE GARDEN./LETS BE KIDS AGAIN./I’LL CHASE YOU IF YOU CHASE ME.”
Image 18: ocean vuong, on earth we’re briefly gorgeous, highlighted in yellow: “When does a war end? When can I say vour name and have it mean only your name and not what you left behind?”

listen listen
i know so many of yall will have complaints, which i personally will simply not pay attention to, bc personally this last episode was such a perfect adaptation
the fight with ares was phenomenal, and if you think for one second that it was underwhelming go back to reading the scene in the book, it was so fucking perfect, and percy's inexperience, and ares's slow showing off, and then the WAVE, and percy outsmarting ares and showing him he shouldn't have messed with him, im just !!! god i loved it
what takes the crown for me, is that sequence in olympus, from start to finish, a goddamn masterpiece, god fuck, lance riddick, rest in peace, but the TALENT the man displayed as zeus, the way he flawlessly showed off power with simply sitting in that chair and just standing, the ANGER when he attacks percy, the disbelief when poseidon shows up, he was so fucking good, god idk how anyone could portray zeus as easily as he did, and I'll miss him so much
and toby stephens too!! maybe it was my daddy issues, but poseidon surrendering, A GOD SURRENDERING, FOR HIS CHILD, "JUST SPARE MY SON"!!! and then the conversation with percy, god fuck, the raw emotion in his eyes, the PAIN when percy asks if he dreams of sally, i FELT THAT
and walker's acting, god he somehow has managed to accomplish the brown eyed puppy eyes with his big blue eyes, HE CAN PUT SO MUCH FEELING WITH JUST HIS EYES
and dont get me started on the betrayal of luke, both walker and charlie were amazing, and you can see how vulnerable luke looks already, even if little does he know that his fear, his pain, his manipulation is just getting started, the whole "im your friend percy, im not here to betray you", IT KILLED ME, the way he put so much feeling into it, god im crying
and annabeth being there! annabeth had to have known, bc why else would she lie about staying with chiron, why else not trust that they would be alright alone by themselves, the way she must have struggled so much with her inner feelings, bc she only fought back when Percy's life was genuinely in danger, she could have stopped the fight much earlier, but she couldn't make herself
and that ending 😭 them going their way, annabeth going back to her dad, percy going home, grover going on his search for pan, and PERCY proposing their pact to meet again in a year (he's definitely in for a surprise lmao), i fucking cried
and then meeting with sally, and SIKE, literally fucking taunting kronos like he's no big deal, and him calling kronos grandpa literally fucking killed me
i just need to say, yes, it wasn't perfect scene by scene from the book, it could have been more detailed, i would have loved more of annabeth, and no we didn't get the scorpion, but it was such a perfect adaptation
i get why everyone said this was the best episode, and i already know im going to rewatch the fuck about it, im genuinely so happy about it, i had such high expectations and this episode met every single one of them
tldr; percy jackson season 1, episode 8 is a masterpiece and you should definitely watch it <3

utsukushii kare really said we’re going to take two of the most fascinating, interesting, well-characterised characters to have ever been written and not just stick them in the same show, but put them in one of the most incredible relationships to be seen on screen and i cannot thank them enough for it. seriously, if you consider the fact that at this point we’re at ep 8 of a 30 minute runtime show; that’s 4 hours. i’ve watched other bls, heck even other ordinary shows, that can’t even cram enough characterisation into a character that hira or kiyoi have in their little fingernail. im not joking. and nothing shows that better than kiyoi in this ep.
i love that we’re already getting an episode from his perspective. we had to wait all the way until ep 4 of season 1 to see things from his side, and that was such an amazing twist and reveal and still to this day that ep makes me cry. but im so glad we get to see his perspective sooner. bc we don’t need that shock twist anymore, instead it serves as a good balance to see where both our characters are at in the first 2 eps. and yet again, seeing things from kiyoi’s pov just opens up the absolute treasure trove that is his character. there are so many stand out points from this ep that i wanna mention but I’ll wait until my big ‘favourite parts of utsukushii kare s2 ep2’ post to list them all. what i wanna say here is that every bit of his character we get to see in this ep comes together so well to create such an interesting, multi-faceted and well-rounded character that it’s kind of astounding. we start off with his softness and vulnerability that’s countered perfectly against hira’s timid reaction, and then we jump back to high school to see this full on longing and the frustration that comes with that, waiting to be confessed to. i wanted to say this about the first season but this serves a good opportunity too; I find it so interesting how they portray hira and kiyoi’s ‘seme and uke’ dynamic (im gonna use those terms bc i can’t think of any better way to describe it, just know im referring more to a more dominant vs more submissive personality, like the confesser vs the confesse, and not anything sexual). You could so easily watch this show, hear the premise, even see the characters, hira and his chronic shyness, kiyoi and his undeniable popularity, and easily place those labels; hira the uke, kiyoi the seme. but in reality, kiyoi so clearly wants to be the uke, and very much is the uke. he begs in his head for hira to confess his feelings fo him, half bc maybe he needs hira to be brave where he can’t be, but I think also half bc he just wants to be confessed to. He wants the boy he likes to tell him he likes him, just like he wants to cuddle in his lap and be looked after. it probably stems from this want to be loved, chosen to be loved, and be cared for where he felt he wasn’t before, but it’s just so refreshing and such an interesting subversion of expectations, to see inside cool, popular kiyoi’s head and it’s just him begging for this shy, nobody kid to like him, and say it out loud.
and then I’ve touched on this before, but you get to see his earnest drive and passion to do what he loves. the cool kid that should fit the stereotype of never caring about anything, pushing to do the thing he loves, putting himself out there. I just can’t describe how excellent of a subversion that is. and the way he is with people at work, with Anna, polite and cordial and sweet, it’s such a reverse of kiyoi’s tsundere shortness and bluntness with hira that it not only shows us that yes, we weren’t hallucinating, there really is an infinite pool of softness within kiyoi that pours out more and more every time we see him, but also shows us that kiyoi is maybe only his true self with Hira. he’s not this polite, nice boy, nor is he this cool, cold popular guy, he’s somewhere in the middle, a fascinating mix of both, that only hira gets to see the full extent of, and I think that says a lot about how comfortable he is with Hira, and how much he trusts him. as much as it may be bad that hira will never find fault with kiyoi, it also makes him his sanctity, his true safe place, where he can breathe and grow and truly be whatever he wants, soft, angry, cute, cool, vulnerable, hira will take it all and adore it no matter what.
and then we get his jealousy of koyama, his protectiveness and possessiveness of hira. it’s kind of endearing how he still feels these things when hira shows him such endless devotion, it’s a testament to how normal he sees their relationship compared to hira, and how he therefore allows himself to feel normal relationship things, including possessiveness. but also in this scene i really love how kiyoi is let’s himself doubt himself, and only when it comes to hira. i feel like we’ve only ever seen him been unsure of himself when it comes to the things he loves, namely his dream of being a performer, and hira. he only looses confidence when he doesn’t do well in the competition in high school, and is only ever doubtful when it comes to hira’s feelings about him, and how he is with hira, maybe bc they’re the only things he truly wants to last forever. so what does he do, just like he does with his acting career? he puts in sincere effort. he humbles himself taking that recipe from koyama, and despite his cluelessness and clear lack of skills, he still tries his absolute hardest to do something for hira. he cooks him a meal, one of the most ordinary and sincere expressions of love. and his shy smile the whole time, him waiting excitedly for hira to come home, it’s such a fantastically endearing contrast from the cold, removed kiyoi we know early in s1 that you almost can’t reconcile them as the same character, and yet the steps that got us here make it clear that they are in fact the same person, that both those people live inside kiyoi and that’s amazing. and of course something as ordinary as cooking a meal for your boyfriend can never be normal for hira and kiyoi but the chaos unfolds is what makes them absolutely them. it mirrors what kiyoi says at the start of the ep about Hira, ‘if it wasn’t disgusting, it wouldn’t be hira’. It’s the same for kiyoi, and the same for their relationship. they don’t want to change it fundamentally, don’t want to take away the things that make it them, they just want to find a way to take this thing they both want and love and build it, strengthen it, so it can last. and i’ll say it until I’m blue in the face, but that’s why kiyoi’s personality, his bluntness, works so well for hira. it provides this iron wall of reassurance based in truth that he needs. I think ‘im not dating a pebble’ might be my stand out line from a bl in 2023 already but it’s also so ridiculously laced in meaning. Kiyoi doesn’t see hira as just some rock, some insignificant thing on the side of the road, that’s not what he’s dating. He’s dating hira, the person. And I think this push for hira to see himself as a person is only something that kiyoi can do because, in a way, hira was the one to see Kiyoi first. I’m a different way, because of the complex hira still has around kiyoi, he may not be a person yet, but hira still saw him in a way no one else did because he cared enough to look and keep looking. He stared and stared at every bit of kiyoi, including the uncool parts, the embarrassing parts, the sweet parts, the upset and angry parts, he’s the one that saw it all and never once looked away. The invisible kid made him feel seen. And I think for someone that’s always looked at but never seen, that’s what you really want.
So yes, this may have collapsed into another ramble, but I hope I can just convey some of the sense of how whole of a character kiyoi feels, even just by the points in this ep. And I just love that he’s allowed to be it all, be chaotic and messy and imperfect and a work in progress while still helping hira along too. I’ve never seen a bl couple that feel so much like they’re growing together, figuring themselves out as people and as a couple and it’s just so fucking refreshing and interesting and beautiful to watch and i will never ever shut up about it

i keep going back-and-forth on how amelia is presented by garrett.
on the one hand i think that amelia as a rather meticulous, routine-oriented person does line up with how shes presented, particular in episodes like plug dream. he says she could probably do his job at the gym better than her i think lines up pretty well with how shes presented overall, particularly in episode 8, as she pretty quickly (seemingly) steps up as the de-facto leader in airys absence and takes to the position quite well. even before then, her team mates did seem to look to her on what to do or how to do things. shes good at battening down the hatches and keeping things moving, which tracks with how he describes her. a person who favours consistency seeking consistency, only to have it ripped from her over and over. it works.
however, on the other hand, im not as sure about the presentation as her being "mysterious" from the set go. up until now, the general assumption seems to have been that her past was a mystery because the plane drove a wedge between he old life and her new life. she never talked about her life because she couldnt identify with it anymore, it was stolen from her. in presenting her as a generally secretive way, though, you lose that downward spiral a bit. Sure, she may still feel a disconnect--id bet she does! but now she doesnt talk about her past life cause shes just kinda...like that, i guess. doesnt have the same kick to it, to me.
though i guess garrett does make for a pretty lively narrator, for lack of a better term. maybe you could view him as being a bit unreliable, focusing on the wrong things. Or maybe it could be that amelia just draws a lot of lines in her life in general, between work and friends and family ans whatever else, and having all of that get slammed together, losing the ability to make her own situational definitions of herself by putting her in a position in which she is, fundamentally, nobody but Scenty could have messed with her, if that makes sense. or she could just prefer not to talk personal with her boss.

Hazbin Hotel: Trace the primal light
This will be part 1/3 Of my hazbin hotel rewrite
Link to part 2: xxx
Edit: this is a safe measure to vivziepop's stans that happen to come across my silly post
I just did a rewrite of a show i thought have so much potential, viv's ideas is good, great even and i respect her (though not support her) because of how far she has come. Shes a great animator and artist, i just wanted to expand her idea in another way unlike her way, its just a silly little rewrite you don't have to take it seriously.
Tldr: I am a bored teen who see the potential and decided to expand on it im not attacking Viv im just critisizing her work, all writers, artist, creator go through that (even me) its just a part of making creating for other people to enjoy. So lets be respectful.
Lets start of with the big fish, the tonal problem of Hazbin Hotel.
I feel like Viv can't decide whether its a serious story or a comedic story, everything feels so unbalanced, one thing the viewer is supposed to make fun of a character the next you need to sympathies with them in one scene to another.
Im not saying comedic shows cannot have a serious setting once in a while, see for example: the amazing world of gumball or heck even my little pony A SHOW MADE FOR KIDS THAT MEANT TO BE LIGHTHEARTED
But ofcourse, Hazbin Hotel have this problem, so lets change it shall we?
In my rewrite HH is in its core a semi-serious show, it has mature theme that is handled seriously and it doesn't make fun of a character in their more character driven moment
Ofcourse, HH still has their humor and allat, it just doesn't interfere with the over all tone of the show
now we move on to season 1 (-ep 9)
In the original series, hazbin hotel has 8 episodes, i wouldn't blame them because their an indie production but i think it should be extended to 9 for good measure
Ep 1 focuses on the setting, tone and introduction
Ep 9 will lay out the stary of the conflict in season 2
And lets just say, the Pilot of HH did a pretty good job of standing in for Ep 1, it has the setting, the characters and how they interact. I particularly liked the introduction to charlie at the start of the pilot, when its the end of the recent extermination and she's essentially "waking up" the rest of hell.
It captured Charlie's motivation and role so perfectly and nicely, it shows her status as princess, and her motivation to end the extermination for her people. All without a single dialog only her song.
Season 1 of my HH rewrite will lean onto more episodic elements, each episode after ep 1 will introduced a new character that come to the hotel and want to be redeemed.this will be the perfect chance for viv to showcase her designs and push the premise forward.
What about sir pentious? Hes a guest yes, he's a guest in ep 1 and will be more of like the core cast along season 1
My rewrite will probably look like this:
Ep 01: Prolog
Ep 02: a guest related to greed
Ep 03: a guest related to gluttony
Ep 04: a guest related to wrath
Ep 05: a guest related to sloth
Ep 06: a Guest related to lust
Ep 07: a guest related to pride
Ep 08: cast centric episode (maybe angel dust)
Ep 09: epilog that will lay out future season
I will talk about ep 9 later after i talk about the villains in part 2
But kira how about the main cast? How about their development?
Good question and i have an answer to you
Each cast or more will handle the said guest in every episode, for example Charlie will try to calm down a rouge wrath guest or Husk will try to help slmeone with the gluttony problem and so on and so forth.
The guest will contrast the cast very much, and this will give you how they interact with someone outside the main cast
Now how about the main cast itself? How do they interact with each other? Through the episodes ofcourse, found family dynamic that build up slowly but surely. Like angel, who don't care about the hotel at the start but slowly warming up to the others
But how about their personal development or trauma? Yes, beacuse season 1 focuses alot more on episodic, developing a character through episode is hard but plausible, so i guess in season 1 we will get a little development in the show don't tell format while in season 2 we will push to more character driven story and story driven story episodes.
how about the main characters?
Ofcourse we gotta start with the main cast
Charlie morningstar
Charlie in my rewrite is nice, sweet and often times pushing herself too much, she has her pride and will do anything to protect it, even if it harm herself. Shes down to earth and thats why she gets brushed off so much by her people because she doesn't earn their respect yet
Her development in season 1 is all about her trying to gain respect and all the while pushing the inner conflict of herself for working herself too much.
And her flaw is shown in one of the scene where she lashed out to her fellow main cast beacuse of her pride as in only her method is the right one. But through out the said episode she will try to fix that part of her in the guidance of her friends.
Likable component
- friendly
- nice
- confident
- leader type
- down to earth
- caring
Unlikable component
- prideful
- Headstrong
- pushing herself too much in the cost of her own self or even her friends
- gullible
- get jealous fairly easily ( not in like a posessive way but in like of how dare you're better than me way)
Vaggie | Vagatha | Valitas (angel name)
Yes i did rewrote her name too because what the fuck is Vagina.
Anyway-
The problem i had with her is the fact she doesn't have any and i mean Any character outside of her being "Charlie's girlfriend who is an angry latina stereotype" so we gotta fix this
In my rewrite, shes a pretty serious and headstrong woman, often being the "straight man" inside the chaos of Hazbin Hotel. While she look like she's made from stone, she actually has a pretty soft side more to her friends.
She's only acted aggressively where she deemed the situation is calling for it or she sense danger arising.
Shes a very good fighter and has been with Charlie for a long Time, though they never outright have a relationship. Their romance is a slow burn one, scenes here and there like lasting glances or playful flirting throughout season 1 that build up to season 2.
She has a pretty good, enemies to friends dynamic with angel dust, and out of all the main cast she's the closest to him by far (platonic!!)
We can easily showcase her character in a show don't tell format like simple gestures like putting a hand in front of charlie when she danger is coming or reassuring the other main cast calmly while holding their hand if need be
Likable components
- attentive
- logical
- serious
- street smart
- wise
- gentle
Unlikable components
- headstrong
- violent (if the situation calls for it)
- self loathing
- overbearing
Angel dust
Angel dust oh yeah we gotta talk about him
*sigh where do i start
I am not going to show his SA scene
Thats it, thats the rewrite
JUST KIDDING
But still no SA scene bcs wtf is that
Angel dust in my hazbin hotel rewrite is a confident and flirty man, he's confident, charming and sexually active man though he does fake his emotions a whole lot.
He stand in the middle of a string between overconfidence and self loathing at the same time, even if he's tired he'll often push all of his real emotions inside and stand proud in his drag queen persona.
He is an actor after all.
He has a very heavy trauma history with Valentino, and beacuse of valentino he develop his eating disorder and self loathing tendencies.
His interaction with main cast starts from him using them as means to escape valentino to him genuinely caring about them
Hes a very complex character over all
Likable components
- confident
- charming
- caring (he doesn't want to admit it)
- attentive
- soft spot
-attractive
Unlikable components
- he'll often accidentally invading others personal space because of his flirting (he'll work on it)
- self loathing
- overconfidence
and also his eating disorder (he'll work on it too in season 1 this will be viewed negatively as in its a bad thing not that angel dust is a terrible person to have ED)
Angel ae urip iki
Husk
Husky dusty my lil meow meow (hes a grown man) Just kidding!!
Husk in my rewrite is often times dismissive, petty, and overall a not fun person beacuse of his " i don't care" attitude but surprisingly hes a pretty good listener and a very detailed observer, he has street smarts and will sometime spit out uncharacteristically good advice.
His relationship with alastor will be dived in more deeper in season 2
Over all he will be that one idgaf bartender that has surprisingly good advice
Likable components
- attentive
- observant
- good listener
- street smart
- wise
- uncharacteristic good advice
Unlikable components
- petty
- dissmissive
- bitter
- salty
Nifty
Ah yes, the hyperactive skrunkle
she's honestly...a very interesting can of worms, she acted like a child but in that one episode she displayed in this sexual setting that made me ick for a little bit
Her character is basically nothing outside of the sociopathic, hyperactive silly goober
In my rewrite she's more reserved while still holding on to that hyperactiveness of her, shes a clean freak and kinda a sociapath often times.
While she hold on to that shes a rather friendly and approachable character, shes like that one friend you would talk your problems with all the while she offered to get rid of the problem (in more ways than one). While she has her flaws with her, it wss established that she was not aware that what her doing is wrong, because in her human life she never thought about right or wrong
And yes in my rewrite shes a rather young gal (maybe high school age?), how did she met alastor? No one knows
And she's ace btw, it just doesn't accured to me she will be the type to think about romance, let alone sex.
Likeable components :
- friendly
- easily approachable
- positive
- clean
Unlikable components
- cant distinct between right or wrong
- gullible
- violent
- overbearing
Alastor
Alastor alastor alastor, what should i do with you?
In my rewrite he is an polite and old timey man, he is a gentleman and quite a charmer. Hes smart, observant and confident.
He'll probably will be the only character in my rewrite to not swear once, instead he will passive aggressively critisize someone with his signature gentleman words for example:
"Your highness perhaps with that silly little head of yours you cannot comprehend this level complexity do you?"
but ofcourse he wasn't a tumblr sexyman for nothing Ain't he?
he's manipulative while simultaneously approachable, making him more dangerous, he is sadistic and psycothic all of his move and act is for himself and only himself
It wasn't clear of wether or not he started to care for the other main cast or not but one thing is for certain that he is a force to behold.
And hes one of the girls
Also, no voodoo thingy
Likable components :
- Charming
- polite
- gentleman
- observant
- smart
Unlikable components
- manipulative
- sadistic
- fake.
- obsessive
Yes that's all for today's rewrite, part two will hopefully be tomorrow, ofcourse this is not a perfect rewrite, im open to what interpretation you guys have about my rewrite!!
Edit: sorry guys, i write this on a whim in the middle of the night and im veryy sleepy so i hope the typo and grammar mistakes can be excused

i am not one to enjoy having critiques for a fandom i hold dear, but tonight’s episode for percy jackson has me thinking.
the show is a gift that keeps giving, a true gem—- rick literally shook his books, and these cute kids fell out. also, i love a lot of the changes for the show, and the diversity, it’s *chief kiss* plus, percabeth nation, how we feeeling tonight? :)
luke’s “when did you turn into an old married couple?” percy’s first time saying “wise girl” and annabeth’s “seaweed brain”, percy not paying attention to his driving cause he’s got a staring problem, cause a pretty girl smiled at him, too enamored with his wise girl, annabeth’s “it’s easy to forget what’s important, when you’re alone.”
blossoming soulmatisim at its absolute finest<3333
but, i must say this. okay, what do you mean the summer solstice is over??? when the kids got out of the casino, they had like a day left + probably some mere hours to spare. next, four pearls? thats a very interesting change, perhaps, it’s a creative choice to give false hope for percy, and then most likely, during the tartarus scene, one of the pearls fall out of his pocket, because the prophecy says, you will fail to save what matters most in the end.
and another thing, why are the episodes so short? that was literally 20 minutes. change is good; and mostly these are changes rick thought of over the years. i adore the changes, but why in exchange, is some of nuance details being left out? to then top it off, the pacing is a bit quick.
maybe, this was a conscious choice due to only having 8 episodes. not sure, but i wanted to give in my two cents.
ooou, also, im living for the tweets that are circlulating a clip from the casino, and in the far distance, you can hear an accented voice call out “Bianca! Bianca!” very elusive easter egg —- my little boy nico. c:
nico di’angelo easter egg

Could you make a chapter 7 or a bonus part of the herobrine series (like a small writing, almost like a special episode of what happens – more of showing a small spoiler ig)? It was truly an interesting story and the way you write in different POV's is so good ❤️❤️ But if you have other priorities or rather not continue it then its fine !! You may skip this request of mine.

EVERYONE SAY THANK YOU TO THE ANON WHO JUST BROUGHT ME OUT OF MY HIATUS
(I am so sorry its been months i know but shit hit the fan so..)
pt 1 / pt 2 / pt. 3 / pt. 4 / pt. 5 / pt. 6 / pt. 7 / pt. 8
CHPATER 8 1/2? UNDER THE CUT!
In a perfect world, everything would be peaceful.
Hell was a strange place to sleep, though every place here was a strange place, considering the geography in this place was fucked, if I phrased it nicely.
At least the room was nice. The Nether was hot, but in this room, the fungi seemed to placate the heat. The small sources of light came from the thin windows, casting frantic shadows onto the floor.
At least the room was nice.
The bed was tucked into the corner, hidden among the wildlife inside the room. Though, could you call it wild if it were inside a room?
I digress.
The bed was soft and comfortable, and I wondered how Herobrine had gotten such nice linens in the Nether. Maybe he just called in a favor from someone?
And as I thought about Herobrine, my thoughts turned to Steve. His violet-purple eyes were entrancing, and I just...couldn't stop thinking about them. About Steve. About Herobrine. About this whole situation.
I wondered how Steve and Alex were doing. Did they think of me?
~~~
This Player was certainly interesting. They acted so much stranger than the normal Players he had been used to. As in, they didn't run screaming or take out weapons as he passed by, hoping to steal a loaf of fresh bread.
Herobrine missed those days, though he didn't miss being controlled. A loaf of bread, cake with icing, the sound of something that wasn't the sound of the Nether.
He felt almost mournful about the "good old days" though they weren't particularly good.
It was a shame, Herobrine thought, that Notch created him with a sense of remorse. But what he'd done had been done, and he couldn't take it back.
If only he could show Steve his book. The truth, and nothing but the truth.
He huffed under his breath, "Not like that would ever happen."
Herobrine shifted from the bed, stretching and getting up.
"After all, who'd trust a man in hell?"
In a perfect world, everything would be peaceful.
We will never find a perfect world.
~~~
HELLO EVERYONE IM STILL ALIVE I PROMISE

fuck it im gonna do it.
Let's discuss the subtleties in the shots of the monastery in Farewell the Sea, because I think it's fascinating how much detail was put into shots we only see for a few seconds at maximum for the sake of showing how much Nya merging with the sea affected everyone.
Tumblr media
So the first shot of the monastery we get (that isn't a shot of the entire thing) is the courtyard. There are leaves scattered on the ground, a leaf blowing by in the foreground, and a broom against the dragon statue.
Tumblr media
The second shot we get is of this hallway, where the ninja hang pictures of their loved ones. The reason this one's interesting to me is because it feels like nobody's touched Jay and Nya's picture; everything else hanging on the walls is straight and even. The picture of Jay and Nya is crooked and dusty.
Tumblr media
The third shot we get is of the kitchen. It's an absolute mess. It looks like nobody's bothered cleaning up in months. Dirty(?) dishes are just stacked everywhere, there are (presumably) empty soda cans all over the place, there's a stack of empty pizza boxes being used for extra garbage storage, it's just a mess.
Tumblr media
The fourth shot before we get to the hangar bay is this one of the recreation room. Cole's soda guzzler is on the sofa, there's more garbage just laying around (including under the sofa), there's a game controller on the edge of the sofa, and it looks like nobody's really bothered doing anything seriously there for a while. Let's compare this to shots of the monastery we get in season 11.
Tumblr media
When the rec room is being used regularly, yes, it's a total mess, but it feels lived in; additionally, the ninja don't look like they just throw the garbage wherever. Anything that seems to be empty is behind them and out of the way, compared to in Farewell the Sea where it feels like the garbage gets thrown around haphazardly. In addition to this, look at how many pizza boxes there are in the screenshot from Wasted True Potential, then look at the screenshot from Farewell the Sea. If we take the Farewell the Sea screenshot as meant to be implicative of Cole being the most active in the rec room, the team breaking up has either resulted in less pizzas being ordered or Cole's eating disorder from season 8 relapsed (link is an explanation in case it's needed).
Tumblr media
Onto this hallway. I couldn't get a good screenshot of the hallway from the same angle, but it is the same hallway. It's not much different when it's being lived in, but how they show it in Farewell the Sea makes it feel empty, especially the specific zoomed out shot I used for this post. Like the rec room, this hallway doesn't feel lived in in Farewell the Sea.
Tumblr media
I'm not sure what to say about this, except that in A Rocky Start (the episode I got this screenshot from), the courtyard is incredibly clean because they use it to train and practice fighting. There aren't any leaves, no brooms, it feels lived in because it's clean.
Tumblr media
Finally, the kitchen. The dirty bowls aren't stacked on top of each other, the floor is clean, the counters aren't covered in trash, it just feels clean, maybe like they had dinner sometime before Aspheera attacked the monastery, which makes it feel lived in.
Whoever did the design for the monastery in Farewell the Sea did so well making things feel like they haven't been lived in for months. You can feel the effect that Nya merging with the sea has had in 20 seconds. It's honestly heartbreaking.
