tdr is literally 2013 era tumblr fanfic — gay relationship with zero substance, too afraid to give anyone a personality or conflict, complete disrespect of legacy characters, and blatant misogyny. truly the best of all worlds thanks megan

genuinely i did have the thought while reading it that 13yos on fanfiction.net have written better stories than this. at least i can forgive a 13yo for not knowing what character flaws are. but the fact that megfitz got paid for this shit? insane. there's so much that's just so bad in here. the misogyny also cannot be dismissed it's true. acting like he was just settling in all his previous relationships? that line pissed me off soooo bad. i Know meghan doesn't even know who zoanne wilkins is lmao

#also sorry but i just would never be able to trust a white guy who's so into conspiracy theories #like i don't think megfitz intended for him to come off skeevy bc yknow he is perfect and has no character flaws right???? #but the fact that she can't flesh out characters and has to rely on gimmicks and cheap shit like Evil Homophobic Parents #and therefore just kept reinforcing oh btw hes sooo quirky he thinks all this weird stuff about heroes hehe!!! #just made me go ummmm. ok. at what point is he gonna get into the racism and antisemitism #like ofc she wouldn't do that on page bc he's flawless and just hashtag quirky!! #but she doesn't THINK about how like. it reads. to reinforce over and over that your white guy is prone to cults and conspiracy thinking #anyways. impressively bad comic all around thanks meghan #answers #mysterycitrus

I do not think it’s a good idea to keep Nia’s situation from the rest of the group. But the bitchy side of me is glad she doesn’t wanna tell anyone because I know the moment we do, it’ll become all about her again and MC’s issues will get pushed even further into the background 😑🤷🏽‍♀️

#choices bolas #choices blades #blades of light and shadow #choices stories you play #playchoices #‘she’s the baby of the group’ ‘you’re our heart’ ‘poor innocent Nia needs to be protected and saved again’ #and the thing is that I do like Nia as a character #but 1) I hate when MCs aren’t treated like MCs #and their only purpose is to observe and facilitate the other characters’ stories and growth #and I feel like that’s ultimately what ended up happening in book 1 of this series and will most likely happen in this one as well #like yes obviously MC experienced growth as well but it’s always in the ‘going from a newbie to a competent individual’ sense #and that’s beyond old #plus it doesn’t work when they pick and choose when they want to acknowledge our competence in book 2 #and 2) I also can’t stand this flawless/perfect character archetype they do #or rather the ‘only flawed in ways that make them look even more perfect’ characters #it’s so overdone and unrealistic imo #like Nia is so selfless she doesn’t consider her own needs? #she’s generally timid and lacks confidence? #she can be naive and a bit too trusting? #please those aren’t even really flaws #they just serve to make the character even more the paragon of virtue which again is just unrealistic #especially because the last two often end up being flipped and portrayed as the person always seeing the good in others #but idk maybe I’m missing the point or something #I know this is a common character archetype but it’s one of my least favorites #which sucks because as I said I do actually like Nia even though I might be coming across as a hater #i like some of the writing for how she fits into the group and I also like how her faith is unwavering #plus she is competent and has skills in her own right #but for whatever reason the writers thought giving her real flaws or at least acknowledging the shallow ones they did give her #beyond face value wasn’t a good idea? #idk maybe I’m wrong though and things will play out different than I expect

iam a firm believer and enjoyer of nuance However i Am victim to something called The Jester's Clause, which proclaims that if anyone comes to me with a wildly off-the-wall take i legally have to double down in the opposite direction for the bit.

#yes the intricacies of angelas character and how she reacts to the world around her isnt always flawless #but the instant anyone even Suggests shes bad: 'Oh Havent You Heard? Angela Did Nothing Wrong Ever In Her Life. Ever.' #she can do whatever she wants. she shouldve killed more people tbh. u just dont get it. shes the perfect character. bc i said so. #if u get killed in th library your first thought should be 'wow so kind of angela to let me into her cool library. shes the best :)' #piktalk #this is non-fucking-negotiable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

something i think a lot of people forget is that drake and sam’s relationship is very much a two way street. it’s not just sam being terrified of drake because drake terrorised him. drake didn’t torture sam for no reason, to him that was retribution. yes, drake is a violent irredeemable psychopath and even by that point in the series he’d already gone way too far, but sam literally dismembered him. drake was permanently disabled due to sam’s actions and even then, he was aiming for his head. he was attempting to kill him purely bc drake threatened astrid. he never actually managed to get his hands on her. for all intents and purposes, at least to drake, sam struck first. drake never attempted to murder sam before that point, but sam did. he’s not a helpless baby who’s nothing but a victim, he hurt drake just as much as drake hurt him.

#a lot of people baby a lot of the characters when they’ve all made their fair share of mistakes #they’re children in a crisis they’re not gonna make flawless decisions #except for edilio. edilio is perfect. edilio for president 2024 #gone series #the gone series #gone michael grant #michael grant #fayz #the fayz #sam temple #drake merwin

yknow playing last specter for the first time felt so different for a number of reasons, but i think a huge part of it was because of the shock due to the sheer contrast in layton’s personality from UWF. listening back to layton’s UWF voice clips after being so used to prequel layton in general was so jarring because in that game, he’s SO serious. his voice is deeper and his tone more to the point. his lisp is a little more harsh, even his humor is different. he approaches things with a no-nonsense attitude and chuckles at general mishaps.

so in UWF, i think he’s more mature overall and the most serious we’ve even seen his character in a game… which is SUCH A CONTRAST to LS layton, who is arguably the most unserious we’ve ever seen him. this man chases cats and jokes about the police behind their backs, and his humor leans on the side of being at the (minor) expense of others. his voice lines are *noticeably* more sarcastic, especially in this game’s reveal/point scene. the tone of UWF is so somber; he’s very experienced and almost tired. but LS is likely the first big adventure he’s been on. we see that in his character at the end too, when he’s in awe at the golden garden and makes the proclamation that he will go on and solve more mysteries, and when luke begs to come him and be his apprentice. even his sprites are rounder; they’re a little more baby-faced and a little kinder.

he’s observably younger and newer at this in LS, even if he’s been a professor for 7 years at this point and the time span between LS and UWF is only about 3-4 years of experience on top of that. ig it started having more of an affect on him once he hit the decade mark 😭 but yeah, crm showed that contrast and that pre-character development attitude in hershel absolutely flawlessly and i will never shut up about it

Will probably delete later but genuinely WHY do so many ppl hate uf papyrus. "He’s horrible and a bad brother and abusive >:(((" my guy. YOU made him that way

#always weirds me out when a really bad take becomes popular fanon and ppl treat it like it's an inherent universal take #happens to all characters I feel but it's esp frustrating when it's not just a bad take but just straight making a character a certain way #as a plot device. or to project ur own issues onto. at that point just. make an oc or smth. why mangle a character so severely. what is #the purpose #im not even going to TRY to pretend i have perfect ic flawless interps (I absolutely don't and know this) #but even w/ characters I have minimal interest in (like asgore for ex) it's important to me to at least *try* to keep them in line w/ their #og counterparts. #and you'd think. given how so many ppl infantilized Papyrus. that some of that would've bled thru into au counterparts #but nope. the fanon versions are practically just wholly different characters who just look similar and 'fill the same role' in their au #and it's honestly not like there's a shortage of other characters sans could have a toxic relationship with in uf #(bc let's be honest here that's 90% of the reason uf papyrus got characterized that way. for ppl to project onto and sympathize with sans) #I don't like having strong negative opinions on things and I especially don't like talking abt them publicly but idk if it's just weird #timing or smth I've seen so many bad takes the past couple weeks #to each their own and I'd never like. bash someone for having a diff take than me. I just don't...understand. #idk #I'm really tired and my eyes are sticky so I really shouldn't even be posting rn bc I will see this later and be like #can't BELIEVE that guy posted an opinion on the internet. WHY would he do that

to add on lily’s flaws she also believes james and the marauders rather than severus (which is just bad writing imo) and she tells him to be grateful james saved his life, she also who quickly bites back once you annoy her, she also gave cheeky answers to slughorn when he suggested she could’ve been in slytherin, (i personally hate her sm for her trying to tell severus he should be grateful to james would like to hear your opinions) but yes even her, a briefly mentioned character, is very flawed!

tbh my feeling is more that she just believed a rumour that was going around the school rather than having heard it directly from james. idk obviously we dont know. but teenage girls (and boys) often believe rumours. not that weird. I actually think she wouldn't have believed it coming directly from James given how she acts towards him in SWM, but if the school generally seems to agree that it happened then it's more believable.

re: her telling Sev he should be grateful, I've talked about this before (I think in that very post about lily's flaws) but I don't read it as "you should forgive james for everything he's done" but just this kind of desperate, naive "can't we all just get along and stop fighting" sentiment. it's still not a great thing to say, absolutely it's insensitive and tactless.

however it's always interesting to me how Snape people despise Lily for that singular comment (like that's the worst thing anyone could do lol) when Sev is pretty atrocious to her in that conversation too. He completely dismisses her feelings-- like how is Lily saying he should be grateful any worse than him writing off what Mulciber did to Mary as 'just a laugh'? Sev literally ignores her because he's too focused on his hatred towards the Marauders to hear his muggleborn friend's very valid concerns about the death eater wannabes he's hanging out with.

I don't think it's fair to hold Lily to a different standard than Sev, that's my opinion. If she's insensitive towards her best friend then god is he ever. and idk teen friendships are often like that- immature. they have yet to mature

they are so dysfunctional lol. and i love them for it personally!

#cheekiness is arguably not a flaw haha but i guess it can veer into insolence #and before anyone starts with 'i was a perfect flawless teenager who was never insensitive' consider this: perhaps u did not notice #you can feel however you want about lily obv #but uve got to admit it's a bit silly to love a majorly majorly flawed character like Sev and hate Lily for saying a stupid thing #or my fave (this isnt u anon just in general) when people hate her for running away after he called her a mudblood haha #like damn that bitch how could she #sl #lily #severus #meta #replies

Every now and then I'd encounter posts saying Jiang Cheng is this and did that, he should have done this thing and that other thing instead (In short, your garden-variety anti). At the end or at some point, the person would tack:

Did we read the same book?

We did read the same book. But then there's a factor called willfully misinterpreting canon text and events to suit one's need to justify that their Stan Did. Nothing. Wrong. Ever.

Way to take a joke literally.

#Mo Dao Zu Shi #MDZS #Jiang Cheng #I recently found a post claiming Jiang Cheng abandoned Wei Wuxian among other things #it seems my tolerance for bullshit is lower nowadays so the culprit was added to my block list #why is it so hard to accept that not a single character in MDZS is perfect? #except for Fairy that is #seeing dishonest takes is so annoying #IMO flawless characters make for boring stories #southernwolf16 rambles

Osamu Dazai and the Depressing Era

#I have so many thoughts through my mind these days I was barely able to focus on the episode. I kept zoning out #I made barely any post #Okay some thoughts. The thing that really hit me since the first time watching b/sd... Is the– #“I don't kill people because I want to write about lives” “I start doing good because my friend asked me to” #Like I get grey morals and everything but also. Sorry for being so simplistic but I think everyone should do good / not kill people– #because killing people is bad lol. No because of other personal reasons #I really *really* feel b/sd ultimately has a very nihilistic approach to life. #And that when Oda said “You won't find a reason to live whether side you're on. Both sides are the same.” it's not Oda-character talking– #but it's really the author expressing their own worldview through the one character that's the most distinguished #They really think there's no difference between good and bad in their little nihilistic world. #Which is something I personally don't agree with. #“It is a given that everything that is worth wanting will be lost the moment I obtain it” #......... No it's not you just need to go to the shore and listen to the waves crush and the seagulls squeal dude. It's going to be okay. #That's why it's so easy to portray Dazai as perfect and flawless for the author btw. #Because nothing he ever did in the pm was wrong if “good” and “bad” don't mean anything to begin with. #And this is coming from a deeply relativist person. But I believe even grey morals have a limit. #Thus my general disagreement with most b/sd themes #I don't know why I went off this tangent btw I didn't intend to. #I suppose it bears repeating once in a while where I stand compared to the b/sd themes and my personal interpretation of them #(Even though I acknowledge most people don't agree with such interpretation... ) #There were other things regarding the episode I needed to say but I forgot... #One of them was that season 2 Dark Era proves that even amv openings can actually be good if you put enough budget in them #Which makes me even more pissed at the season 3 / season 5 ops #random rambles

you guys i have so many thoughts about tdr. i have so much to say. like i don't want to be super mean but dude that comic fucking sucks and i can't lie i think it made me kind of homophobic actually

#my stance up to now has been that i don't really care about tim/ber but now that i have read this. dude... #it sucks that they gave a canon queer tim narrative to someone who uses homophobia as shock value and virtue signaling points #and who actively tears down characters who don't like her special little uwu flawless oc (kate im so fucking sorry) #there's no substance to this relationship i don't see why they even like each other #bc she keeps just stating oh they're perfect they make each other so happy but she doesn't like. show that at all #and i HATE the shock value homophobia like i cannot overstate how much i hate it #oh these random cops are homophobic (that's how you know they're BAD!) #oh bernard's parents are homophobic (that's how you know THEY'RE bad too!) #it's so hamfisted and it reads like such. cheap storytelling #especially bc tim as narrator doesn't even get to have ANY thoughts on his own queerness or seeing this homophobia in the world around him #and then she can't go more than two pages without being like BTW BERNARD IS THE BEST EVER AND TIM CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT HIM #while against this ugly backdrop of shock value homophobia #there's no substance to this relationship. why do they even like each other. it just falls apart if you examine it at all #because she just is fundamentally incapable of writing either of them as people with character flaws #for fucks sake she can't even be consistent with tim's BASIC character tenets. ''i always dreamed of being batman'' false lmao #but then to follow it up with ''i never wanted to be batman i always wanted to be my dad'' #and then on TOP OF THAT to make the Only mention of Jack drake and his impact on tim's life ABOUT BERNARD AGAIN. #yeah sorry im a hater now. this was shit tier #rimi talks

I had a really really good time at the mario movie, it was a super fun watch and chris pratt's voice acting was honestly fine. like, it wasn't MARIO, but it wasn't terrible at the very least. you know what the ACTUAL problem with the mario movie was? the embarrassing girlbossification of Peach and how the film industry still cannot understand the concept of what a strong female character actually means LOL

#LIKE IT WAS HARD TO WATCH I had a lot of second hand embarrassment from her dialogue #this whole time people were gearing up to have Chris Pratt be the main problem of the movie but NAHHHH it was literally just . all Peach #Kayla's personal life #Super Mario Bros Movie #good at everything =/= strong female character #give me some FLAWS god DAMN #''oh ahaha i got it on my first try'' no you fucking didnt!! stop!! stop!! give your female characters flaws!! #idiots hold girls to yet another oppressive standard of Existing under the guise of 'see all? THIS is what a strong female looks like' #its just more pressure on girls to be perfect . this shit does not help or represent Anyone #I would MUCH rather have #a Princess Peach that cries + uses her emotions to save a kingdom than some flawless ~*~girlboss~*~ who inexplicably succeeds at everything #once again; that second category represents No One

Literally. No one. Has ever said Callum and Viren aren't foils. It's just that people who are rooting for Callum to fail don't understand what a foil is. Callum and Viren are foils not just because of their similarities, but also because of their differences.

One: People have said that directly to me in the saga-critical chat in the official tdp server.

Two: Callum and Viren are foils because of their differences, but also because they have similar flaws—and sometimes, characters succumb to their flaws. Characters fail, and that's not failing to "understand what a foil is", it's knowing that Callum is going to make similar mistakes as Viren, but ultimately will overcome them (at least in the context of their foil and tdp. Foils, despite their differences, can still meet the same fate).

We're at point A, and it's a long way to point B. Callum, like Viren, is willing to do "anything in the name of love, however dangerous, however vile". That's going to come back at some point. Callum in s2 used dark magic to save Rayla. He's made a choice like that once, and he'll do it again. He may have sworn off dark magic in s2, but if his connection to the sky arcanum isn't giving him the freedom to do whatever he needs too, is that going to hold up? Is he not going to do whatever he needs to for the people he care's about?

#something something tdp s5 is probably going to be a tragedy #The heroes are going to fail. Aaravos is going to be freed #that's what makes tdp interesting #I'm here to watch characters make fucked up choices and get sad #Callum is a little bit morally dubious. He's not a flawless perfect uwu boy man. He's an actually well written character #tdp #the dragon prince #tdp rant #asks #Watching people relegate the ''sunshine'' goofy characters with a strong sense to do what's right to the land of #''they would never do anything wrong'' and slowly going mad. #Stop doing this to them

Twitter fandom drives me insane, my god.

#stormy weather #its the same people screaming the same things in the most unimaginative way they possibly can #singing praises is one thing but when you become incapable of taking criticism and it becomes your personality #to just shut out every form of critique and insist that the media you enjoy is perfect and without flaw #i get worried. #like i get it #a lot of people online these days are kids who need to express themselves #i was the same as a child and I still am to a degree #but like... maybe im just jaded? #but discussion never happens anymore. #its either you agree and we cite the same paragraph to each other #or we disagree and im blocked on sight #im not gonna cite any usernames #but there's so many people on kh twt who scream riku is the most flawless kh character ever #and its like... did you all miss the first 6 games of this series?? #riku is lovable for being able to grow past his flaws #while also being relatable because his insecurities manifest in ways that make you see yourself in him #but if you dare have a convo with them OOHOHO life is over for you buddy #not all people on twt are so ride or die so please dont take this as a personal slight #it isnt meant towards any ONE person #im just. old. #and im jaded.
