ask game - top five favourite female characters :3

ok so we collectively decided that i will do top five from dramas and then top five from other forms of media, so this is gonna be a long post 😌

top five favourite female characters from dramas

number one. koh ae ri from the eighth sense

she is for real one of my favourite secondary characters of all time. she is so funny and i absolutely love the way she teases her friends, bullying IS a love language yes. i also love how confident and slightly over-the-top she is, she can really stand up for herself and other people as well, which is an admirable quality. also, i am side-eyeing her and her bestie. 🫵🏳️‍🌈⁉️ ykwim

number two. ink from bad buddy

we all know what i think about bad buddy but that doesn't mean there aren't any characters in that series who i still cherish, and ink is definitely one of them! i feel like everything in the world has already been said about her and i don't even have to explain myself. we all love her.

number three. hashimoto mio from kieta hatsukoi

she is an icon, she is a legend, etc. etc. she is so so sweet and wonderful but can also hit you across the face so hard that you fly away if you deserve it. i don't even think that's like dramatic effect exaggeration, she will kick your ass if you're acting like a fucking idiot and i love that about her.

number four. choi yu na from semantic error

true bicon of our generation. greatest fashion sense in the world. so very tired of your bullshit (and that's absolutely fair). a great friend. *bows fifty times in respect*

number five. sunny from our dating sim

she doesn't get too much screen time but i love everything about what we see of her. she is very no-nonsense and deadpan, but also very emotionally intelligent and compassionate (she literally helps lee wan figure out why he started drawing and why it's still important to him, like she literally changes his life with one small conversation). what a legend.

top five favourite female characters from other media

number one. brienne of tarth from game of thrones (tv show)

ok yeah yeah horrible tv show. ANYWAY. i am fucking obsessed with brienne. she is SO!!!! KDGJDFJGDFJGKDF. sorry. what am i even supposed to say. she is a warrior both metaphorically and literally. she is the most knight-coded character of all time. no man can compare to her in knightly qualities. she is noble, she is loyal, she is fair. she is fucking iconic.

number two. clementine from the walking dead games (video game series)

i grew up with clem, actually. i was just a couple of years older than her when i first watched a playthrough of twdg. i suppose we have to make some space for the fact that she is a protagonist in 2.5/4 games, meaning that every player kind of decides what kind of a person she is on their own. but i think overall, no matter what choices you make, she always remains a very strong and resilient person. despite everything she's lost, she doesn't lose her humanity and manages to take great care of her found family (and her adopted younger brother, shout out to our murder baby aj <3). i am very proud of her, almost like she is a literal person who grew up in front of my eyes.

number three. lae'zel from baldur's gate 3 (video game)

ok, now this one was hard. not because i don't love lae'zel so much, but because there is an insanely long list of female characters from bg3 that i absolutely adore, and choosing just one was hard. in lae'zel's place, there could have been shadowheart or karlach or jaheira or either isobel or aylin from everyone's favourite divine lesbian duo or nine-fingers or or or. i can go on forever. but i picked lae'zel for this post. so, first thing you should know about her is that she can step on you and you will be thanking her for it if she does. she is just 21 years old, yet she goes through a completely worldview-shattering experience and comes out the other side not just alive, but with her head held high. her quote "what good this heart of stone, for it to be shattered?" absolutely kills me every time. i'm gonna stop here, but i could go on forever actually yes.

number four. josephine montilyet from dragon age inquisition (video game)

very similar situation with the dragon age games and the amount of characters i could choose. morrigan, isabela, and sera in particular were very strong contenders for this space. but i ended up choosing josie for this post. she is a very sweet and romantic character. she used to be a spy (and she actually got into it because she thought it sounded romantic - she's whimsical like that), but then she ended up killing someone she knew and that experience changed her forever. she is now a very successful diplomat, determined to deal with world's problems through any means other than violence. she is very open-minded, understanding, and just an absolutely lovely person overall.

number five. anne elliot from persuasion by jane austen (novel)

choosing a favourite jane austen herione is like choosing a favourite child, but here we are. the photos are from two different adaptations, and i appreciate both of them in different ways, though i don't think we have a 10/10 adaptation of persuasion just yet. anyway, anne is naturally a rather timid and people-pleasing person, which i think a lot of us can relate to, but throughout the book she really finds her own voice and stands her ground, while simultaneously not having to completely change her personality, which i really appreciate. not everyone can be sarcastic or witty or strong-willed and that's ok. she also definitely shines as the undeniably smartest austen herione, as she figures out all the secrets, decidedly does not trust clearly untrustworthy albeit charming gentlemen, and is overall incredibly sensible, which means it's very easy to read her inner dialogue, because you never find yourself sighing at how blind she is at something that's happening. she sees everything. being inside her head is a great time.

ok actual final(?) thoughts on saltburn *spoilerinos*

im going to pretend that everyone exaggerated about specific scenes in that movie so that i would go into it thinking it was something else entirely.

obv i knew about the graveyard and the bathtub (tho i didnt know it was dick in the dirt and i didnt know it was slurping down the drain) but other than that was honestly going in blind. i knew it was set in the 2000s but i didnt realize it was going to be full on homage/subversion of the 2000s twee indie film. like that specific vibe of movies when a fuckin MGMT Summer Montage started happening i was going nuts over it like idk for some reason "set in 2000s" didnt register as THAT KIND OF set in the 2000s ykwim? anyway i kinda figured oliver was a lot more twisted than he let on specifically when he first threw farleigh under the bus when he caught him eating out a girl Every Day Of The Month. there were probably earlier hints but i dont remember i was too busy dying over the fact that 30 mins ago no cars go was playing in a college bar scene, but i was still shocked to find out that OHHHH LITERALLY EVERYTHING HE SAID WAS A LIE.

wrt this being a "too freaky/not freaky enough" movie: ofc the "too freaky" people are just cowards, but i dont think it was really meant to be full on like. pink flamingos eating dog shit or whatever? i really do think it was just the overhype about how weird it is and the people who just watch goth girl dirt ass fucking porn on the reg arent gonna be Phased by it but that wasnt really the point it was more about like, the insight into the character lol idk. and like at that point its up to the viewer whether or not they wanna empathize with the character at all i GUESS but even then idk i think everyone kinda sucked in all their own fun ways like farleigh was a dick, all of the fuckin family were just shitty rich people, the only maybe decent person was the blonde nerd right at the beginning of the movie. but personally as a freak enthusiast i do like going "i would do Literally Anything to become a manic pixie dream boy in a 2000s indie film" and oliver managed to do it i guess. ultimately felix's greatest sin was being a bland richboy character in comparison to ollie like jacob elordis job was literally sit there and look pretty lmao, but i like my psychotic evil boyxboy ships to go both ways ykwim like i want them trying to kill each other :(

closing thoughts: NEVER TRUST A TWINK NERD

every time i don't like a movie i like to feel vindication by going thru the tag and seeing other people's reviews (if I like the movie then i'm just looking for gifsets to reblog)

this got long so it's under a readmore. baseically everyone si wrong about what's wrong with this movie but it doesn't matter because no one should watch it

most of the complaints from people who didn't like it are about the masturbation scenes except they're all wrong about what the issue is wrt those scenes. Her masturbating is not a big deal regardless of her mental age. The actual issue is that she orgasms immediately, i mean like you're not going to hit a bullseye the first time you pick up a gun because you don't know how to aim it ykwim

and then the people who like it are complainging abotu other people misunderstanding that it's a happy ending and it'sa feminist story about a woman gaining autonomy......yeah they're also wrong. If a parent is abusive to their child and then the child follows in their footsteps when they reach adulthood, that is imo de facto not a happy ending and inherently denies her own autonomy becuase she is only searching to get more of what she already knows rather than spending any time doing internal reflection of what she likes/wants

and the other complaint from people who lik eit about people who don't like it are saying 'they just don't understand it's a satire! everythign they're complaining about in the movie isn't serious because it's a satire!'. OK not everything in a satire is the satire part of the satire. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is a satire but that doesn't mean Borderline Personality Disorder isn't real or isn't serious because it's talked about in cxg. CXG is a satire and it contains satire and it contains conversations about bpd and if someone says "i didn't like how cxg talked about bpd" you can't say "oh well it's a satire". Jokes use exaggerations and unreality but in between that is real things that do exist and critique of those things can't be covered by the excuse that "it's satire". Like chickens, from the infamous "why did the chicken cross the road", are real and exist and are not immune to criticism. This is how jokes work

so like if everyone on tumblr is wrong about everything that's wrong in Poor Things it makes me feel like am i the only person (besides my sister who recommended it to me) who actually watchied this fucking film? I actually kinda hope so becuase it sucked

every single time i watch hlvrai i go 'wow... these characters are so completely different than they are in my mind, i really should reevaluate the way i portray them' and then i draw them gay kissing again and completely forget

#hlvrai #its difficult to portray them accurately for me because.#this is going to sound ridiculous ok #but theyre just. people #its just the fucking rtvs gang playing themselves 90% of the time with silly lil voices #like just saying whatever THEY find funny #which is totally fair and tbh i really enjoy iy!#but i cant #WRITE the rtvs crew #bc theyre people. and not characters #and it's difficult (for me at least) to pick and choose the Actual Human Traits and the like #Funny Improv Character traits #so i end up exaggerating the character traits #so im not just writing weird rpf fanfiction #ya feel?#like gordon becomes the straight man because playing him as the goofy guy he really is just becomes. im writing wayneradiotv fanfiction #and thats frankly not fun for me #ykwim?#anyways im done rambling. live laugh love #jester hat jangles.txt

doing their eyeliner!!

ft. suna, tsukishima, & oikawa

an: UGH IM SO SCARED HELP this prompt is super cute so it’s ok (also i just used my favs bc i felt like it)

warnings: none! just super cute boys getting their eyeliner diddd

. suna loves when u do his eyeliner okf. he asks u to do it before school when u sleepover at his! i don’t think he’d like doing wings? maybe just the underside of his eye (ykwim?? like ur bottom lash line?), and he likes it dark! so he’d ask u to blend it w eyeshadows n stuff hehe ;D OMG ALSO? he would totally know how do eyeliner already (he just does & no one knows how he learned tbh), so he’d be down to do urs tooo! and he does it so well? like those really cool and intricate ones on pinterest are done absolutely perfect on u

. tsukki wouldn’t let u (at first 😈). “that’s so dumb wth. why” but once u show him some simpler styles and ones that aren’t super winged and outgoing, he (will totally) MIGHT try it! and he’s so weirdly still during too? like how do u sit so still for so long what.. and his tall ass would make fun of u for not being able to reach his face, so he makes u sit on the bathroom counter while he stands between ur legs…. OMF i’m in l*ve with this stupid tall blonde boy

. do i even need to say anything. YES oikawa would love if u did his eyeliner!! he’s all for big and small wings, thick or thin, it doesn’t matter! he loves being so close to u & being the center of ur attention. he would be so squirmy during it though, so yell at him for me pls 😭 mf wouldn’t stop squirming!! “YN ITS COLLDDDD :(!” “stfu” he doesn’t really know how to do eyeliner other than make lines & don’t poke ur eyes out, so ud have to teach him (bonus hc.. he def has this over exaggerated vanity somewhere in his room with the movie star lights n everything BAHAH)
