Finished my second Kirby game

Went from "Yay there's so many different games to choose from! (he's a jolly fellow 🤨)" to "Humanity Is Extinct, Your Friends Are Kidnapped, And Something Haunts This Land"

Maybe I'll make a post on this at some point but like, something deeply fucked up about TNP and Po3 that people have totally forgotten about is how badly they try to whine that "Tigerstar Had Good Traits :("

Firestar does it, Brambleclaw does it, and they keep doing this after it becomes this GRAND irony that Firestar almost gets Tiger'd to death in a fox trap because he was too trusting. Bramble gets his pity award of keeping deputyship and then cries to his son about how No One Saw The Good In Tigerstar :(

And it's wiiiiild that no one else in this fandom has done anything with the fact that Leopardstar broke the Warrior Code to appoint Hawkfrost, who had no apprentice, an extremely aggressive and warmongering Tigerclone who says things like "Tigerstar wasn't the worst cat to look up to." ONLY qualifying trait was being kinda like Tigerstar.

And she practically did that the SECOND Mistyfoot went missing. And then Leopardstar continued to be one of the most violent and xenophobic leaders through Po3, joining with WindClan to attack ThunderClan.

What I'm getting at is that like, a few years ago, with books like "Blackfoot's Reckoning" and "Shadow in RiverClan" it's like they suddenly decided to retcon in a bunch of "redemption arcs" in hindsight. They just pretended like there was this grand high reckoning with TigerClan, when there literally wasn't, and if anything that caused SERIOUS problems for the cast that the authors didn't fully acknowledge as such.

And now ppl haven't actually read the main series and are just working with their recent memory of all these retcon books.

But TNP and PO3 are still there, and you can go and see the ACTUAL timeline where Leopardstar is really not apologetic at all, and Blackstar is a useful stooge for the very next wannabe dictator that strolls in, in spite of the new side content that COMPLETELY mischaracterized them for their plots to work.

#I just wish people could be more critical of this #And im not entirely anti-retcon. Mind you #But I am here because i think these retcons make them WORSE characters. It's BAD for a character to GET a book with a redemption arc and-- #Then they don't change at all and act like totally different people later in the timeline #And Leopardstar is the worse one between her and Blackstar BECAUSE she has sooo many active choices here #Im confident in my choice for BB the more I think about it. Leopardstar's dismantling of the bonehill was good #But it works better as a tragedy imo with the rest of the series in mind #That for a brief moment. A fleeting whim. She could have changed. #But she never did. #And Blackstar who was FAR less repentant at the time DID eventually turn around. #At the end of the day one of them appointed Hawkfrost as codebreaking deputy. #And the other did not. #And I think it's fucking bullshit the way that Leopardstar's retcondemption implies that Hawkfrost was just so tricky he mislead her #The old and experienced leader who had been fooled by a tiger before and was soso sorry for it. Just got tricked. #Like fuck off. She never had a redemption. Stop trying to tell me she did 15 years later #She's a girlboss who empires too close to the sun in pursuit of power and drags everyone down with her #Not a sad weepy smolbean #Bone babble #Warrior cats analysis

i think we also need simon valentine back bc his possessiveness and jealousy over kon is so funny (sorry simon). i need him to witness bart just casually using kon as a jungle gym and grind his teeth about it. i want him to try to infodump about frogs to kon but tim interrupts like oh thats cool. hey i modded my car this weekend do you wanna see!! and simon is like. excuse me. i was infodumping first. sims negative reaction. and bart is STILL sitting on kon's shoulder like a weird parrot.

peak comedy to me is simon valentine stuck in a room with tim kon and bart. kons in the middle of it and doesnt even realize. simon is radiating intense jealous vibes but tim and bart are both like lmao ok anyways, this is OUR kon. <3 Autistic Hostility (intensely one-sided) (but also somehow 3x combo?) (kon is oblivious but he can pick up on the vibes) (the vibes are rancid bro) (Autistic Hostility.)

#rimi talks #sajan and lori are NOT helping kon with this situation. not their circus. not their monkeys #like simon was sooo jealous over sajan. and kon just met sajan #he would be INSUFFERABLE about tim and bart #at least with cassie he could console himself that oh thats his ex... shes allowed to be close w him... #but with the Totally Straight Bro Dude Friends. bc no one in this story has figured out the gay thing yet. well #simon is having a terrible time. kon's not having a great time either. tim and bart are just chillin tho. #theyre not above being gatekeepers. the thing they are gatekeeping is kon. they are kind of assholes but its funny #(see also: tim and bart coming back to yj and them all just being like ok bye ray youre old and we dont need u so u cant sit with us!!!) #(gatekeepers. lil dipshits. but its funny.) #kon #bart #simon #tim

I’m sorry I genuinely cannotttttt understand how some ppl bash joe even in a joking manner. Like the poor guy did nothing wrong (that we know of) but so many ppl are making such snide remarks by comparing him to Travis which is not only condescending but actually kind of mean! HELLO did we listen to the same reputation album??? You can’t praise Travis for letting Taylor bejeweled and then rip joe to shreds in the same breath when joe was the one there for her in a clearly difficult and trying time in her life

#the ripping to shreds is a little exaggerated cuz there’s not that much vitriol behind it #but I just find the callous attitude to be so disgusting and insincere #like the love for Travis is sooo much rn I can’t imagine ppl hating him if they broke up #but I couldn’t imagine that for joe either #and another thing I think has to do with how public they are which is fine #but because ppl see so much physical proof of Travis being loving it somehow automatically proves joe wasnt #he was a private man! let him be!! #and if that wasn’t smth Taylor liked/struggled with she dealt with it like the grown woman she is #I’m not saying she didn’t face any kind of emotional stress in that r/ship #but if she did/going off of her songs she dealt with it like an adult #and now that chapters closed and ofc we can still talk abt joe but the subtle menace towards him is sooo immature #like some ppl rlly need to grow up/touch grass #and I’m not hating on travis like him not being there in 2016 is not a dig towards him #it’s just pointing out who WAS there which a lot of ppl seem to be forgetting #joe alwyn #travis kelce #taylor swift

right, so, as I was questioning the whole "why did the clockwork droids say rose was compatible?" it made me think of a fun fic idea where the droids are able to scan rose earlier and find her “compatible” or whatever, and now the episode is about finding a way to stop the droids, hoping that they don't lose their attention of trying to get rose, and making sure neither rose nor reinette are murked along the way

and, yeah, if the droids are focused on rose, they could just hop in the tardis and leave. but then, where does that leave history?

but at the same time, dilemma for the doctor by staying and consciously, actively deciding to put rose in harm's way, which I feel could be another fun “I could save the world but lose you” “do it” except a hell of a lot more tense between the two of them

like, I can just see a very upset and snappish doctor having to choose to stay on the ship with the droids bc this bit of history CAN'T be rewritten, except...

rose, and everything that just happened with sarah jane smith, and remembering that rose can very well leave him and die and will die eventually but could die NOW if he doesn't figure out how to save the day quick enough

and rose, also on edge from last episode, but also bc oh my god she's being hunted down like game for this insane ship repair. but also, would never ask him not to choose this, just also please please figure this out as quick as you can doctor bc she'd really rather not die ta

or like, imagine him going into rose's head, but it's horrible for them both bc he wants to soo bad, but not like this, never because of this. and she's just had bloody casandra rummaging around in there just a while ago, it can't be nice to have even MORE picking through her thoughts and memories. and, ohhh, I bet he'd be furious at how much rose has been messed with by casandra and the droids and then by him himself even if he means well, only wants to help

anyhow, I just think that'd be fun to read. surprised it's not been done before!

#if this has been done before someone should send me the link cause clearly I'm missin out #this feels such an obvious idea but also I suppose I never thought of it before now so #also with the doctor acting like that. he's just sooo stressed. this is like the WORST situation he could imagine them being in atm #other than straight up losing her or her going home #he has to choose? between her? and some other girl? except that other girl is vital to everything but rose is his rose? #RIGHT AFTER their talk outside the diner? and just absolutely everything that went down with sarah jane and mickey? fuckkk him man #and poor rose. literally has to be a good sport about this entire thing. no other choice #I mean she could ask to leave but she never would #I really hope someone expands upon this fdnjfnj it'd be suchhhh a fun deviation while still staying close enough the og #timepetals #tenrose #tenth doctor #rose tyler #doctor who

I’m so sorry if this is out of pocket but I need to know how hairy fujoneet reader is……. You mentioned her having bush already but what about everywhere else…

JKSDHFJS i do not want to get too detailed so people can still project but she virtually doesn't shave at all so do w that what you will. she tries one time for rin after they start dating and it hurts so bad she cries to him and he ends up finding her so pathetic they fuck again while he explains he could not care less.

so all in all as hairy as u wish to believe. her skin is too sensitive for that and rin would huff her no matter what

#return to sender #fujoverse #rin catches her snivelling in the bathroom because she cut herself with a razor trying to shave #he like. helps her out of course and then fucks her to the point of stupidity cause he found her sniveling sooo endearing he wanted to die #i love them so much because like. fujoneet reader in particular makes rin act like a caveman #he is not like that. at all. he is a civilized and normal and every other person #he's ever had anything with would describe him as kind of detached #turns out rin just was never all that into them at least not even close to how much he likes her #fujoneet reader turns him into some kind of beast and he HATEEEES himself over it and it IS so funny. i have to write them soon

do u ever thibk abt sam giddings and how she doesn’t necessarily have a “best” friend. how she’s ranked second on the relationship charts 70% of the time. how she isn’t anyones starting highest ranked person. bc i do all. all the fucking time

#mine #text #sam giddings #until dawn #(7/24/23) #i just. i think abt her all the time i loveher so much #like. ofc she has josh but according to him and his relationship chart (i get those charts dont necessarily MEAN anything but. lets pretend #-they do) chris and i believe beth were ranked higher #and even when beth WAS alive. aka someone else sam was real close to. josh was still ranked higher than her #i just..... being second in terms of everything friend / relationship related suuucks #and i can only imagine how sam feels yk? #theres just. theres just sooo much to the relationship charts and i love it #and i KNOW sam was hannah's best friend. but the chances of hannah being closer to josh were probable yk? #my thoughts #my sam tag #my UD tag #UD

Ok and on that while I do think having the Option to switch ryan and kaitlyn in chapter 7 would have made a more interesting game, I do value time with the bestie and dylan/kaitlyn bonding time was the best part of the game imo

#like I get most people want the switch for shipping purposes which there is nothing wrong with #I am a kaitlyn stan and also I don't hate jacob and I think having her find jacob in the basement would have been so so cool #like she dedicated freaks out a bit but her being so collected when all this shit is going down is very much her character #so having her absolutely lose it if she fails to get jacob out or even if it made the puzzle harder somehow #like it was harder for her to focus ohhh it would have been so good #*definitely #I also saw a post that said the only way to save all of the hacketts (well minus kaylee rip) would be if ryan stepped back #and let kaitlyn and laura handle it and then he would have the chance to kill silas in the scrap yard #and that whole idea has rewired my brain can you Imagine #this game. this game. sooo close to being really good #the quarry

max mayfield and mike wheeler same person but the difference is an avoidant attachment style vs an anxious one

#stranger things #byler #mike wheeler #max mayfield #madwheeler #in case it isn't obvious I think max is avoidant and mike is anxious #I feel like mike doesn't immediately look like an anxious attachment person bc the show is trying to avoid giving us his emotions #so he's not constantly up people's ass like “do u hate me?🥺” #but I ultimately feel like “needs constant reassurance and takes small things personally” is sooo mike wheeler #and he does actually often seek reassurance but only really from will bc that's the only person he feels safe enough to do that with #and he's not avoidant bc he never really. pushes away intimacy actually. (aside from the airport hug) #he might not initiate if he's feeling insecure about how the relationship is or whatever but he won't actually shut it down #whereas max absolutely goes out of her way to push people away when they get too close bc she's worried they'll leave first

[carefulfears]

I hate when people dismiss the Phoebe thing as Scully simply having been jealous. She was his best friend first, and she did what any good friend would have

yeah it's pretty reductive, honestly. scully has been very protective of mulder since the pilot; the first 3 episodes of the show are literally her committing to him, holding a man hostage at gunpoint to find him, and cutting ties with her friends who make fun of him.

this was largely her arc in squeeze, after only having known him for a couple of weeks, as she defends him to colton multiple times

and, in the end, concludes that she would rather be “on the side of the victim” with mulder than climb the ladder with her classmates, and tells colton to fuck off the next time he’s rude about her partner

in ghost in the machine, she's disapproving of jerry from the moment they meet, knowing literally nothing about him except that he used to work with mulder

and she instantly recognizes the profile that jerry presents as mulder's work, whispering to him to ask if that's his, to which he replies "forget it, no" and then later fibs and says that jerry apologized for stealing it (once you tell your best friend you can't go back lol)

all of these examples pre-date her behavior in fire, and are episodes where she's put in situations navigating mulder around other men

y'all remember the first time she met krycek and just flat out refused to shake his hand lmao

i touched on this a little bit in my post on fire, but scully really was just so enthralled by him from the very beginning. she grew up on a military base with her navy captain father and two brothers, and her only relationships have been with older men in power.

she instantly is so aligned with mulder and that there's something different in him than she's used to, but she's aware that the openness and softness that she's so drawn to in him makes him more vulnerable, and she's desperate to protect it

in beyond the sea, the very next episode after fire, she screams at boggs that if mulder dies she'll gas him into hell herself, and boggs tells her that he's tasted the afterlife.

that it's a cold and dark place, and mulder's looking in on it now. she replies, "it might be a cold dark place for you, but it's not for mulder"

she knows him, and she's so moved by him and what he wants to do in the world. these are the values that she left medicine to follow.

"jealousy" honestly doesn't even compare to the kind of ferocious protectiveness that she feels towards him from the very start, she really doesn't trust anyone around him for anything. they can't possibly get it like she does, if they treat him that way.

he may not care if people call him names or steal from him or try to make him walk through fire, but he really is just her best friend. and she can't stand it.

#she shares him with the world only reluctantly #literally her found treasure that she wants to hide away in the basement #she is sooo funny about it tho like she truly doesn't fucking play #she's 5 feet tall in heels but she'll fucking kill you #remember when she found out he was just talking to an entomologist and she literally got on an airplane and was there the next day #i literally only talked about season 1 in this post #she does this for 25 years #PLEASE do submit any and all inquiries to speak to him or breathe his air to miss dana scully!! #she really just does feel like no one else GETS it like she's the only one who understands this wonder that she's stumbled across #and also as far as how closed off she is towards his old partners or girlfriends even before meeting them it's just likeee #look at him #you can deduce that his last relationships have not gone well #of course she's super wary from the get go #the man is not the way he is because the people in his life have been kind #and she just reads him and how he's really feeling so lightning fast #she knows when something is getting to him or he's uncomfortable #even when he stays in the situation #anyway #she's soooo perfect #and so are y'all thank you for the ask!! #asks #scully #kae meta

this week, in the spanish singing program operación triunfo, they sung escriurem, a song by catalan singer miki núñez - more specifically, they sung the version of the song he did with basque singer izaro, in catalan and euskera.

in operación triunfo it was sung by chiara, who is from menorca and thus speaks the menorquín dialect, very different from miki's barcelonese one (i don't speak catalan and still noticed the changes from the original to chiara's one); and martin, from the metropolitan area of bilbo (specifically getxo). for what i've seen people comment, his town doesn't really have many basque speakers, and his dialect is the one they learn at school, the most neutral one. izaro is from gipuzkoa (more specifically from mallabia) so i imagine they have different dialects as well, i haven't listened enough to the bilingual version to really get the differences but i'm sure a more trained ear will be able to do so!

anyways, here's them performing the song at the academy, unfortunately the gala performances are only uploaded to prime video:

#linguistics #catalan #basque #euskera #languages #i know there's a lot of lamguage nerds (like myself) here so i thought you would like this! #i've listened to escriurem a lot but not really the version with izaro. i should do it more #izaro is my favourite basque singer btw she's sooo #they were good at the gala as well btw!!! and miki appeared after the performance crying and everything #cause escriurem is like the unofficial anthem of the program #miki was also in OT and escriurem is about all the contestants in his edition and how close they are and the experience #and now that it has been sung in another edition it has turned into something bigger #even the presenter who participated in the first edition of the contest cried and dedicated the song to her people - more importantly to on #of them who passed away recently #very very emotional stuff #Youtube
