It occurred to me recently that I've never shared the headcanons I had regarding Mario's strength in my version, so I thought I'd list them out in a single post for you guys.

Enjoy! :D

- Even without power-up, Mario is stronger and notably more resistant than average.

- This is mainly due to his high muscle density. He has a considerable body mass and is surprisingly heavy despite his short stature.

- He has a very healthy heart and incredible cardio. Sustained efforts that would leave others winded will affect him a lot less.

- His sturdiness gives him great equilibrium and stability, allowing him to keep his footing even on unsteady terrain.

- The man can lift objects up to five times his size and can pull tremendous loads across a short distance.

- He can carry the equivalent of a person's weight for long periods of time without feeling strained or tired.

- He makes labor look deceivingly easy to the point that others constantly underestimate how hard it truly is (and are always astounded when they try it for themselves, only to fail miserably).

- Mario doesn't workout outside of his daily tasks and activities. His job and naturally active disposition are his only form of exercise.

- He sometimes forgets how physically powerful he actually is, and has warped/broken quite a few things by accident.

- He is however extremely mindful of his capabilities when surrounded by others, and always significantly tempers himself when playing or interacting with friends.

- He never uses his strength to its full extent; both because he doesn't need to and because he fears causing harm otherwise.

- His intervention on a rampaging chain chomp was the greatest demonstration of brute force anyone had ever seen in the whole Kingdom. (See here for context)

- The exploit has made him famous among the guards and citizens alike, earning him the prestigious title of "Super" for the first time.

- While not typically one to show off, Mario loves entertaining people through various feats of athletic prowess.

- Out of all the things others seek his help for, he feels most useful when the favor requires either heavy lifting or manual expertise.

- Albeit very efficient when doing more dynamic chores, his prefered way of working is with his hands only.

- He can punch through almost any surface except literal stone and can bend even solid metal out of shape.

- A rush of adrenaline will cause his endurance to skyrocket, making him temporarily able to endure abject levels of pain and exhaustion.

- Despite those physical advantages, he values qualities of the mind and heart a lot more.

- When asked, Mario always says: "My brother and my friends give me strength. I owe them everything."

(There! Feel free to add your own if you have thoughts on those or feel inspired! ^-^)

#The best term I can use to describe how I picture Mario's strength in my AU is ''gentle and effortless'' 💞 #He has a lot of muscle power - but it's soft and considerate just like him 😊 #Mario #headcanon #personal portrayal #characterization #character traits #personality #physical abilities #Super Mario bros #fanart

the question, you see, is not ‘is it too ooc for this character to cry’ but rather ‘what circumstances would push this character to cry’

this is the whump wisdom, go forth and make that character cry

#gav gab #‘it’s sooooooo ooc to make that character cry’ no you see I think it is ooc #to put this character through absolute unimaginable hell physically and emotionally #and NOT let them cry about it #sometimes canon framing and media format and genre #limit the ability to let a character emotionally Feel all the insanely traumatic shit that’s happened to them #that doesn’t mean that in a different medium or genre exploring these things #it would be ooc for them to do so #send tweet. let those characters feel and emote. it’s not ooc or cringe and anyone who tells you it is is a reductive dick

As we age, the risk of experiencing loneliness increases, often due to various factors such as losing a spouse or friends or physical abilities decline. It is where home care services in Peoria, Arizona, can make a significant difference in the lives of seniors. By providing companionship, emotional support, and assistance with daily activities, home care services can combat loneliness and improve the overall well-being of elderly individuals.

kacchan telling izuku that his body moved on his own is fucking crazy. like not only did kacchan remember izuku saying that all the way back from the sludge-villain incident but he’s also confirming that izuku’s crazy, boarder-line suicidal intensity is a two way street. it’s not just izuku who is insane about kacchan it’s mutual insanity. kacchan’s body moved on its own. he was helpless but to throw himself into the line of fire when he saw izuku was in danger. he didn’t think about it. he didn’t choose to do it. he didn’t have a choice. it was as if izuku was a piece of his own soul. katsuki instinctually needed to protect him above all else, even at the cost of his own life

#AND HE SAID IT OUT LOUD IN THE RAIN IN FRONT OF EVERYONE #bkdk #bakudeku #hey man just casually checking in uh I would die for you and not even think about it #you know how you almost kill yourself for me that’s like Mutual I guess idk what are we #do I tell my mom do I update my hinge profile #like izuku knows he’s weird about kacchan he knows he isn’t normal about him #and he ONLY threw himself into sludge villain incident when he saw it was kacchan. #and THEN his body moved on its own #and kacchan is the ONLY ONE who saw just how in danger izuku was #AND THEN HIS BODY MOVES ON ITS OWN #his body unlocks a new ability just to get to him faster #they’re just so deeply spiritually and physically connected and it’s MUTUAL

I like to think that Leo one day decides to really play around with his portaling and teleportation abilities and see the full extent of them.

Like - continuously throwing one sword and teleporting to it while throwing the next one immediately and repeating this as long as he can to see how far he can keep it up without stopping.

Making little portals in the air that lead right up against the ground so he could potentially just stand on the portal in the middle of the sky.

Ultimate storage system - anything anywhere at any time is available if he knows where to get it (personally my headcanon for why he goes from two satchels to one in the movie.)

Phasing to avoid attacks - like, he could lightly toss a sword a single centimeter and teleport to it, and in that short amount of time he can completely avoid hits.

If they ever do go to space and end up on different planets, with enough training he can just…go there, whenever. Not only would this be great for being well traveled and having more places to go in general, but this also opens up more room for connections and allies that could assist them the next time they need help against a grand foe.

Leo can easily remove injured team members from a fight and get them help without having to account for transportation times.

On that note - Leo’s teleportation in particular acts on a particle level. It’s quite literally breaking him down into particles and remaking him every time he uses it. Both for him and for anyone he uses it on. Who’s to say it can’t be used for healing? At least for basic wounds.

None of this even touches upon the offensive potential of both portals and teleportation. Leo’s abilities flourish more as a support main, but that doesn’t mean those abilities can’t easily be used as weapons - and I don’t think I need to get into how exactly they can be. Portal chopping alone can take on a very different meaning…

Furthermore, I gotta wonder if he’ll always need the swords for this, or if he could one day be able to achieve the same results without them.

My point being - teleportation and portals are super OP. Even with the abilities Leo has in present they are so unbelievably adaptable and so fun to think about in terms of basic mechanics.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rottmnt headcanons #rise leo #I LOVE teleportation and portals and it’s one of the things that instantly latched me onto Leo #man I didn’t even touch upon how cool the potential for combining the bros abilities would be #that would be another post entirely #but yeah portals and teleportation #ESPECIALLY teleportation are so crazily adaptive and can be used for an insane amount of things if applied correctly #all the boys’ abilities laugh in the face of physics and reality #now I’m wondering if teleporting with someone else and THEN going through a portal WHILE TELEPORTING would mess with both of them #like…the Krang right? #Leo teleported them both through an open portal #wonder how that could mess with them on a particle level hmmmm especially considering the place the Prison Dimension is HMMMM #EDIT: YEAH SOMEONE ELSE MENTIONED IT #but yeah them being hesitant to rely too much on these abilities in battle after the Krang makes sense #BUT #out of battle…now we’re talking #ngl out of battle mystics can be even more fun because they’re just pushing themselves and not being life and death about it #okay I’m gonna go further but consider the potential for transporting massive objects like VEHICLES too #like he could teleport the whole turtle tank or more in that case #and just think of the potential for space travel that could have #okay I’m stopping now #ACTUALLY NO IM NOT #consider Leo being able to stay in the in between of a portal #making it a little space he can access and stay in if he needs a moment alone #the dangers that could amount from it too tho like #godddd the possibilities #I don’t have enough tags to ramble as much as I want to :(

headcanons for the employers have somehow turned into a crossover with de skills

#madness combat #so the thought process is this #based on the episodes the auditor is most likely to be associated with physical pain raw strength and endurance #he appears to be descended to the level of mortals and their physical world and he clearly doesn't mind drinking some sugary drinks #i also like the idea of stygian being his counterpart thematically related to souls and rituals #and through understanding other’s emotions they could be frighteningly comforting to those they guide through the mortal coils #the authority expressed by calling someone a worm seems comical #and the conductor sounds like someone who has something to do with interfacing #it would be interesting if they were the one who set nevada in motion with lightnings and stuff like that #that leaves the deliberator who holds all the knowledge and ability to reason for the rest of the employers #and like what if they were a little more dramatic. #madness project nexus #de skills #madness combat employers

The other day I drew an idea for "what if branded could transform", but really I just wanted to design a dragon. In reality I think you could take the idea way further.

What if you were to take the idea of branded being half laguz way more literally?? Basically I think it would be cool to have more of a half transformation resulting in what are basically monsters from myth and legend. Of course, I continue to have an interest in a story where the branded are the main characters and the heroes so, making them look like monsters but actually be good guys is fun to me!

The first and most obvious version of this idea would be the half human/half wolf (werewolf). I don't think they would lose themselves like werewolves, but they are the most iconic animal human hybrid design!

The next most obvious design would be half human/half bird (harpies). I think its important to really push the animal aspect and not just make them sexy sexy mostly human things. I think it would be fun to explore the design differences between hawk harpies, raven harpies, and heron harpies.

The cats are the hardest ones to design imo because there aren't that many human/cat hybrid monsters in mythology that aren't also mixed with even more animals. Its probably fine to just follow the example of the wolves and do were-cats though. Still cool!

For dragons I actually think there are a couple different directions you could go in. For this idea I basically went with your standard high fantasy/DnD demons and devils. There's only one half dragon in Tellius but this is another case where it would be really fun to design different looks for red, white or black half dragons since the ones we see in canon have slightly different builds and horn designs plus the different skin colors. (I would go with different skin colors like tieflings. The whole idea is for them to look like monsters and I think dragons should be scary!!)

The other idea I had would be for half dragons to be oni? Basically the same design sensibility but you would lose the wings. My reason for this idea is because oni are cool dragons in Tellius are kind of seen as this terrifying force of nature that could destroy everyone if they wanted to, which is kind of what oni are as well. I think it could work nicely.

#oni would be more strength based since dragons are implied to have more physical strength than other tribes #while demons would have super magical ability inspired by soren having super magical abilities #this is more of a character design exercise than fire emblem art really lol #tellius #fire emblem

going hiking with jade but you have low stamina so you give it your best shot but there's no way you're keeping up with the mountain lovers club president hiking veteran that he is

so at one poin you'll lean into him, cuddling into his shoulder before looking up to stare at him with your best puppy dog eyes

"jadeee... i'm tired... carry me?" (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)

he smiles endearingly at your antics, and the next thing you know, he's carrying you bridal style with his arms firmly on you

he doesn't mind if you'd whine and ask him to carry you more in the future. he quite enjoys being this close to you, and being so close to you face lets him see all the little details that he's grown ever so fond of, admiring your reactions closely as he explains what sort of fungi you're looking for

and of course, it's also the perfect position for him to steal a kiss ;)

#fr jade would be over the moon just having his lover their with him in the mountains #of course he can't carry you the whole way #so he'll tease you for bullying this poor eel and exploiting him for his physical abilities #(he could probably actually carry you for more gentle hikes piggyback style but he'd prefer seeing your face more) #rinna rants #twstnexus #twisted wonderland #jade leech #jade leech x reader #twst jade leech x reader #twst jade #twst jade leech

I think we should appreciate more the fact that Asagiri made canon that drugging Chuuya takes away the use of his ability. Fifteen already did it a bit with the rat poison, but Storm Bringer really reinforced it with Chuuya struggling (and then failing) to deflect the bullets when the poison kicked in in the lab, Chuuya not being able to free himself from his torture, and literally:

The use of his ability is directly linked to his physical health/capacity to focus, and I for one would like to thank Asagiri for putting this juicy bit of material in canon.

#honestly this could probably be applied to most control-based abilities #you don't even need fancy anti-ability whatever to keep him under control literally just drug him #that's why his ''weakness'' is poison (N liteerally says chuuya is ''just as vulnerable to poison as anyone else'') #(even if physically he's excessively resistant) #side note what the heck does ''pressurized gravity'' even MEAN #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bsd nakahara chuuya #bsd chuuya #apparently i talk sometimes

i really don't know how to feel about fics/aus where it turns out that sj's treatment of lbh is his own fault because he didn't speak up about issues with other disciples, genuinely misbehaved etc and also later (as bingge) lied about how much he actually got punished and in truth it wasn't any more than any other disciple, and that sj didn't know about the fake manual, when all of this is explicitly against canon.

yqy adresses this when sy wakes up, telling sqq to stop being so mean to lbh. in the sj extra, he himself says that lbh should have died a long time ago bleeding from the seven apertures due to the fake manual. sy says that pidw explicitly states that lbh was punished WAAAY more than any other disciple, and in those conditions obviously noone would tell their teacher about being bullied??

idk i understand altering canon for the sake of telling a story but... somehow it feels like a disservice to sj's character to ignore canon and water him down for the sake of making his redemption easier. and villifying lbh, which is what these fics inevitably end up doing, is also messed up - he was around 11 when he joined cqm. that's a CHILD. no matter how you look at it, sqq's "treatment" of lbh is neglect at best, horrible abuse at worst, and in modern times it would put him in jail faster than you could blink. giving him a realistic redemption arc is difficult, if not impossible, but if you truly love him with all his flaws and faults, isn't it worth the effort?

#and do NOT get me started on the hypothetical sy/sj confrontation #it would get physical so fast #i think it would actually be a pretty even fight? sy in sqq's body probably has approximately the same martial abilities #so it would be down to sj fighting dirty vs sy fuelled by pure rage #because sy would NOT go omg sj gege poor meowmeow 🥺 #like. my parents were assholes to me when i was little (obvs not to sj's degree) #and my friends STILL hate them #and in sy's case. THAT'S HIS HUSBAND!!!!! #svsss #sj #sqq #lbh #svsss meta #shen qingqiu #shen jiu #meow

My only defense of conceptual follower Benny is that he was a warrior nomad and a raider, that still has it in him if we take the All Roads comic into consideration, and how he is not like a real dainty soft hand city slicker, cause it’s mostly an act.

So in scenarios where he is forced to travel with the Courier I 100% think he’d be like “What do ya mean you can’t scale a mountain, pussycat? Watch how the pros do it.” And then you see him scuttle up a cliff face scarily fast only to have to save him when he bumps into a Cazador nest.

#reminder his ability stat is 6 and strength 7 so this guys moderately good at physical stuff #like in all realness military and raiders would have lower charisma and intelligence in fallout cause they may know basic stuff it’ would #usually only be for survival #cause what’s interesting about the tribes is that they are all raiders and copycats like yes they can be representative of indigenous tribe #of the wasteland it not of the culture of irl indigenous people as the game makes it clear they are just copying behavior they have heard #read or are just justifying their violent behavior cause the khans like literally read a book on the mongols and said we could bastardize #this and it’s not pointed out enough but it fits the themes of people misinterpreting the past #but back to Benny he’s like weirdly capable and I hate it but it is fascinating #he’d just be complaining other wise and then violently stab something and be like I kinda miss the old days #and then say ring a ding ding or some shit #courier six #the courier #Benny fnv #fallout new vegas #benny gecko #fallout #fnv #courier fnv
