Random question! What are your favorite platonic relationships in Horizon?
Oh I adore this question!!! I'm gonna go with ones we're presented with in canon, rather than headcanon (because THOSE are legion for me). In no particular order:
Aloy and Sylens. The reluctant rapport and begrudging respect that grew between them during the course of HZD was nothing short of masterful and I'm really, really disappointed with how it fell by the wayside in HFW.
Varl and Erend. Bros, man. That one panel in the comic. I wish we had gotten to spend more meaningful time with them at the base. I love the implicit bond they share after the battle on the Alight (Talanah counts here too, but. you know.)
Talanah and Milu. [slams fists] I adore them. I love how Talanah is actually a pretty tough mentor to her--she has a lot to teach, and her first Thrush really didn't need it. You can really see both of them flourishing as a result of their relationship...Milu in learning (and making a difference), and Talanah in imparting.
Elisabet, Margo, and Samina. Because I'll never forgive the "haven't you ever had a friend" line.

Here are the issues I have with the book. Since it's a lot, I'll try to keep it as short as possible and only mention my biggest problems with it. So this list is not complete and I could write pages about it.
Let me start by saying that a good autobiography (or any book that highlights a real life person) should be balanced. It should not glorify that person or pretend that person is a god and without mistakes. I also have no problem with critizing Ze, because, let's face it, yes he made mistakes and fucked things up in the past and not every war decision or speech or whatever was good or perfect. The point is: the critique should be fair and balanced (this obviously doesn't apply to bad people in general and the books about them; but since Ze isn't a bad person...you get what I want to say). The portrayal of Ze in the book is anything but fair or balanced. Or true, for that matter (unless literally every person in Ze's life and who knows him better, including the Kvartal fam, Olena, Andriy or people like them, have been lying to everyone for decades).
Throughout the whole book Shuster does say that Ze is Ukrainian (and Jewish) but also always tries to paint him as an "Ukrainian Russian" - so Ze is actually Russian despite being a "Ukrainian" (basically using one of Russia's Propaganda lies). Ze is basically a stubborn "Ukrainian" who kind of deserves all the hate and arrogance he gets from "real Russians" during KVN times (and later) because Ze is an insufferable asshole during his KVN times. And that Russian treated Ukrainian (or from other former Soviet Union countries) teams badly (including racist remarks, looking down on them, treating them like slaves, insulting them, not giving them a fair chance,...) teams awfully is, in Ze's case, deserved. Because Ze was oh so focused on always winning - no matter what and the cost.
Speaking of KVN: According to Shuster, Ze was terrible as a person during his first years of stardom. A maniac who only lived for applause and needs it to survive and was willing to do absolutely everything to win and beat other teams. Because, you know, he's so obsessed with winning. To a point were even he gives a flying fuck about the Kvartal team and their members (Shuster basically hints that they all disliked Ze and he was some kind of group dictator who only wanted to work and win all the time and was reckless and took to many risks and almost destroyed everyones lifes). When Shuster finds something positive to write about, he quotes people from Kvartal but what he quotes are just general statements or people saying what KVN was like during the 1990s and early 2000s. The moment Shuster writes about Ze and was he (allegedly) like during this time it's almost only "team members" and "people who knem him" and "classmates" and all that stuff - so anon sources. Or it's just Shuster telling stuff without saying what his source is or him just have feelings and thoughts and drawing conclusions. If people get named they - surprise, surprise - have a lot of times bad things to say about Ze or are people who we never ever have heard of as being part of Ze's life. Btw, it's not very hard to guess who the "team member", who talked the KVN years and adds a lot of negative talk about Ze, is... . Denys (yes, THAT Denys) contributed to the book with pictures, so chances are high he also talked to Shuster. If you ever wondered if the asshole would ever get over the fact that he fucked up and Ze kicked his ass out of the group - well, the answer is no. He now just tries to cash in on Ze. And since we are talking about Denys' obvious contribution to the book - he, once again, gave out private photos. How much we all wanna bet that he, once again, didn't ask for consent?!
Shuster also tries to paint Ze's family in a bad light. The father a tyrann who sacrified his wife's (Mama Ze) health for his job and money. Also rarely being at home and giving a fuck about his son and family. Mama Ze spoiling her child and making him entitled. Both to unloving and hard and more or less making Ze's life a living hell. Also that Ze's family was suddenly rich. Not to mention indirectly questioning the trauma his family had to go through (and Ze talked about in the past) under Stalin and the Nazis and family members that are suddenly alive (despite Ze stating in the past that they were dead). Also, Shuster sees in the childhood and family of Ze a part of the explanation why Ze is such a horrible person today, to stubborn to just give up and end the fight (and all that nonsense) and won't win this war. Because the parents put Ze in all kind of activities without him finishing any of it but letting him believe he can do everything and always demanding excellent perfomance in every aspect of his life (to keep it short). So of cooourse Ze had to grow up into a maniac who can't loose and always continues despite what people may tell him and who needs the constant validation and love from others.
There are also a ton of negative remarks about Ze as father and husband in regard of his own family. Not to mentiont hat a ton of informations are factually not correct. Things like birth dates or dates in general, how and where Ze's family lived (missing important context several times), Ze basically being as awful as his father, Ze not giving a fuck about his families safety during the war (Olena was the voice of reason who protects the poor, poor children because their father just wants them back for egoistic reasons and doesn't care about their safety) or not seeing anything concerning about his sons military obsession and instead fueling it (again, it's the poor poor wife who has to protect the son from the awful father), Ze giving zero fucks about his relationship with Olena right from the start and that poor, poor, poor woman always staying behind and having to go through hell and hate because of Ze's maniac ambitions and facing an unsave future in the early 2000s because Ze was so full of himself and had the biggest ego,... . (reading several parts you would think that this "poor, poor woman" is trapped in some abuse situation or Ze somehow tied her to himself and the whole marriage is fake and there is no love) (also Olena simultaniously romantizing things and her life and Ukraine but also being the only who who sees the truth about Ze or several parts of their lives but, of course, can't tell her terrible husband because bad, bad Ze) Also Shuster indirectly claiming that Ze and Olena lied about their relationship and they didn't date for eight years but for a shorter period of time. Because suddenly Olena also was a part of KVN long before Ze (???) and was essentially just his work buddy and friend for a while and somehow and for whatever reason they ended up in a relationship one day. (Also prepare yourself to read about a new version of the "Basic Instinct" story we never have heard before...and Ze and Olena never said.)
Btw, the way Ze is portrayed during his KVN years is essentially with little variation how he's portrayed in later stages of his life. Including his presidency and the war (I'm not going to write several more paragraphes because I think you get the picture Shuster tries to paint of Ze).
Only one thing about Ze's war portrayal: Shuster swings back and forth between Ze as wanna be dictator who will turn Ukraine into something bad as soon as the war is over (and is already starting with that) and who already makes his own rules and gives zero fucks about people and is only interested in his own fame and people applauding him and all that stuff. And Ze being the worst President ever because the war and the current state of Ukraine (which is, of course, very bad and they are about to collapse and loose and big Russia and winning and blablabla) are somehow also his fault. Yes, Shuster really manages to make Ze (and with that Ukraine) partly guilty.
Throughout the whole book he also, sometimes more obvious sometimes hidden, Shuster portrays Ukraine in the worst way possible. He does mention how "bad" Russia is but somehow justifying it several times or leaving out important facts and, once again, context. Also the portrayal of Putin, especially in comparsion with how he writes about Ze, is a joke.
Oh, and, the "inside look in the bunker" life Shuster used for his marketing campaign and that the claim of the book - yeah, bullshit. It's nothing now and anon and all that stuff. Also, once again, portraying Ze in a bad light. Like, yeah, the first weeks of war affected him but to such a worrying point (according to Shuster) that Ze was actually unfit to rule any longer as President but continued (because, you know, he loves power sooo much...). And now he's the mini dictator of Bankova who is always grumpy and changed into a (an even more) awful person and... .
What can I say at the end?! As mentioned earlier, the book has a ton of fake news and wrong facts. It's incredibly poorly researched - if sources exist at all. A lot of times it's Shuster just sharing his feelings or thougths or conclusions or interpretations or whatever. Or just saying things without context. Or writing stuff without giving sources. And to be honest, in some parts it also feels like that Shuster just made stuff up.
If you have no idea about Ze and his life or know very little - that's not the book to get informed. If you know a bit more about Ze, you will surprisingly often feel that certain parts of "exclusive interviews" or "when I talked with XYZ" are strangely familiar...with interviews we all know from Ze's (and several other people) past...because it is these interviews. Just a lot of times missing context, shortening what was said, adding stuff or giving it a new meaning.
Speaking of using old stuff: Shuster also really used his old articles to include them in the book...to a point where it's basically almost word for word.
Overall, the book is in large parts poorly written (so poorly that you wonder how he became a TIME journalist in the first place).
In the end, you probably haven't learned anything new or interesting about Ze, his life, the war or Ukraine. When we talk about Ze, I may have read one, maybe two new things I haven't read before (but questioning both of them and will do research if they are true or just made up by Shuster). It's over 300 sites of wasted paper and ink. I know articles who did a better job than this "book". It's a waste of time and money. And in the end it's a Pro-Russia Propaganda book, trying to undermine the support for Ukraine and hurt Ze and his image (as well as Ukraine's). Shuster tries to be subtle at his try to do this but he isn't not. He tries to come off as critical thinker who wants to portray a balanced picture of Ze and also writes about the sides no one dares to talk about. But nothing about this is balanced. It's just 300+ sites of trashing Ze and backstabbing him and using every possible way. Same applies to Ukraine.
.
#thanks anon!!!#HOLY FUCKING SHIT#😱😨😰#im actually so shocked right now#if this is really the book than this is basically shuster trying to destruct ze and ukraine#ze and olena as well as his kvartal fam probably have better things to do right now but if this book has that many false informations...#...i hope someone at some point starts a law suit#im so shocked about what i just read#i didnt expect much from the book since shuster changed so many things about it#and my expectations were almost zero after his latest articles#but thats...something...#denys being part of that?! i probably should be shocked but after the le monde (?) thing im not really...#also read online that people think people close to poroshenko or other political opponents of ze as well as ares-asshole and people like...#...that are shusters sources#i agree with anon that a “balanced” look at a person is always good in suck a book#but also agree with anon that there is nothing balancing if that is zes portrayal#also agree with anon if this is zes portrayal than something really doesnt match up with what his friends family olena and people close...#...to him of from his life said about him since forever#i think its also highly suspicious that before all that (or presidency if you want to go further back) no one could say a bad word about hi#quite the contrary actually#but suddenly everyone thinks badly about him and hates him and ze is such an awful person and all that stuff#and using already existing interviews and his articles and pretend its exlucive and said it to him and its something new???? thats very wil

kakashi for the character thing
favorite thing about them
ok there's so much. i love that he's weird ... he's a weird silly overachieving freak and there is something wonderful about that combination along with how much he tries to do the best he can to make things slightly less shittier in the world ... even though the circumstances are constantly against him. something very special about characters that persevere through it all ... yes, even through the massive guilt complex which i love too ...
least favorite thing about them
idk that i dislike anything much about his character honestly ..... it made me pretty sad that he lost his sharingan at the end of shippuden tho :(
favorite line
i can never think of a good one right away. i love his introduction scene/lines i'm kakashi hatake things i like and things i hate? i don't feel like telling you that. my dreams for the future? never really thought about it. as for my hobbies ... FELT
brOTP
KAKAGAI<333 obviously
OTP
KAKAOBI MY BELOVEDS!!! i really do cry about them daily
nOTP
kakas*ku ......... if you've been here long enough you know idgaf about age gaps or power imbalance however this one i simply cannot see like. please guys ...
random headcanon
this is not a RANDOM headcanon this is my daily agenda ACE KAKASHI ftw. also i think when they were kids he definitely passed obito a note saying "get out of my school" he's crushing hard and he doesn't know what the fuck else to do
unpopular opinion
also that he is ace. everyone wants to fuck this anime man and i love to take their dreams away
song i associate with them
favorite picture of them
THIS IS SO HARDDDD there are many. but frankly i love any shot where he's doing the iconic shrug emoji shrug ... same girl

Do you think further down the line when Jason has healed more, Damian giving him a crowbar could have actually been funny? Like I think it could match Jason’s humor and was ultimately just ill-timed, but I’m wondering if you think Jason could eventually find it funny or if it would always be too raw of a present to be funny?
Oh I absolutely think some day, Jason can or will find it funny. Correct me if I’m wrong, but there’s comics where his weapon of choice as Red Hood ends up being a crowbar…
But this was too soon. Jason was so recently back with the family, and he and Bruce clearly hadn’t dealt with their shared trauma yet. On top of that, Jason — in the fic, at least — views it as a gesture of intimidation from Damian, essentially trying to assert that he’s the better Robin/son, and less damaged, etc.
I think we can agree that that probably wasn’t Damian’s intention, or at least not all of it. I mentioned in another post about how I headcanon that Damian’s upbringing makes him view trauma differently — something to move past and use against your enemies, instead of having it used against you.
Obviously, that wasn’t the way it came across to Jason. But maybe with time, and some tough conversations, that miscommunication can be explained. On both sides.

god bless you for talking about jules and jules and blue. it seems most of the fandom is really taken by simone/lucas and are completely sleeping on jules and blue which is surprising to me as i do think harry and adelaide have better chemistry. and you're right blue is definitely a goner for jules it's getting more and more obvious with each episode but he really pushed his luck with wanting to keep things casual and shutting her down anytime she tried to move their little arrangement into more overt romantic territory
hello!!!!
i like simone and lucas too, they’re very cute and i thought their first kiss was great, but i agree that jules and blue have more palpable chemistry on-screen. (i’ve always found chemistry is really hard to define and likely means different things to different people, so this is with the caveat that it’s simply an opinion sjshhs).
but yes maybe it’s just because i’m a sucker for friends-with-benefits falling in love trope (which i’m absolutely convinced they’re going to) but i LOVE blue ans jules. their banter and chemistry and his huge soft spot for her and her jealousy all make me feel shshshhshshshs!!!
one thing i will say i think we have different povs on is that i don’t know that i would agree that jules is the one trying to push for romance and getting shut down? i think the dynamic is more complicated than that in general sshshshsj. like he wanted to buy her coffee, take her for a drink, but she refused. and then he acted like he didn’t care by flirting with a nurse sjshshshhs. and then she got jealous! bc they’re slightly immature dumbasses and very enamored with each other god bless <3
anyway regardless love the blue x jules appreciatiors!! in general i really like the season 19 interns, i think they’re capturing the energy of genuine camaraderie and friendship the M.A.G.I.C. had without feeling like carbon copies.

How would Jotaro and Kakyoin react if they find out their children (Jolyne and Kakyoin's son) are dating?
omg i absolutely love that I'm the one who is in charge of this amazing AU because this never fails to make me laugh or make my day. I put reactions for both in headcanons down below! thank you so much for the request anon because this is gold. have a great day and stay hydrated!! <333
How would Jotaro and Kakyoin react to Jolyne and Kakyoin's son dating???
Tumblr media
Jotaro
fr when jotaro finds out he's like 👁👄👁
at first, he doesnt believe it cuz like... that's bonkers, but then he sees how happy jolyne is around him and he's kinda just like... rad
it almost really makes him reminisce about the SDC days and just having his friends around him
but at the same time, that is his daughter and as we saw in Stone Ocean when Anasui tries to ask for Jotaro's blessing, Jotaro just kinda pulls Jolyne to the side lol
he trusts that Kakyoin raised a kind young man, but you can never be too careful lol, that is still his only baby girl
will do a background check if needed lmaoooo
like he trusts the kid.... but he totally doesnt
jolyne just rolls her eyes and giggles about how protective her dad is
Tumblr media
Kakyoin
kakyoin, on the other hand, is super proud and thinks it's adorable
will be on jotaro's ass saying how they can be closer this way
he is 100% supportive and will be super happy for them
he knows that his son is a respectful young man and if anything gets out of hand, he knows that jolyne will kick anyone's ass, just like her dad
he trusts jolyne enough, even if she's literally in jail, i mean, come on, jotaro is his best friend how would he not raise a good kid???
i do think he would be a little baffled at first, but then he would just be all for it, already planning their wedding lmaooo

For the asks game: 1, 13, 60, 99?
Hello hello!! Okay I am v late to these DnD prep/game took long but HERE WE GO 1) do you carry around a bag when you're out and about? if so, what's usually in it? It depends on where I'm going, but sometimes! Typically either a backpack, or every now and then a tiny over the shoulder bag with a rainbow strap. Most of the time I don't though, and just shove things in my coat or pants pockets. Necessities: wallet, phone, sunglasses, baseball hat, musicians/noise cancelling earbuds, keys, hankerchief. If I have a bigger bag: epi-pen, allergy meds, water bottle, so many pens/pencils/erasers, a sketchbook, maybe a sweater, snacks. Oh and bandaids! 13) best compliment you've ever received? I have been told at various times in my life that people feel safe with me, or feel calm around me. Both continue to be the highest compliment I have ever received. 60) what's your go-to plan to destress?
Cry XD
But also: talking to my closest buddies, read/listen/watch to something fun and a little mindless, sometimes do art, go for a walk, and rest/nap a lot. Sometimes baking too, love a good stress bake! Rest is honestly the biggest part though, typically when I'm stressed I'm not resting enough and need to start doing it again. 99) is there anything you would consider yourself an expert at?
Writing unhinged Jim Jimenez smut???
But actually, I find this really hard to answer, because I think it's really hard to be a definitive expert. I think there are some things I hold some expertise in, but I find it hard to claim I'm an expert.
Anyway! Thanks so much for the asks anon!!! I hope you are having a lovely day <3<3
100 things ask game here for the curious!

hello! much love to your fics with rosie and brady. i could go on and on about them, and how well you've crafted the women of silver bullets. i did have a question:
as someone who loves writing and MOTA, and has let that churn in my head and onto a Google Doc as a full-blown, multi-chaptered fic (it's Benny x OC), i want to share it somewhere, for no reason other than i love to write and i love MOTA. but i've never had a full on Tumblr blog, and i don't really know where to start. do you have any advice?
hey anon!! thanks so much for stopping by, i hope you're well!! :D AWE thanks so much!! you're too kind!! they've been very, very fun to write alongside the silver bullet ladies, so i really do appreciate that!! :') i'm excited for what's to come with the bunch! <3 thank you again!
OOOOOO OMGGG!!!! that sounds MEGA fun (especially a benny x oc, as a benny girlie i *LOVE*). okay! so, i can relate this back to how i started with writing and uploading and all - in late 2018 (jeez that was a WHILE ago), i started watching Band of Brothers and then was like - i want to write about this but with an OC - and eventually started writing, but....didn't know where to go from there. i was in the fandom, but didn't talk to many people and just didn't feel comfortable putting my writing out there. i eventually chatted a bit to someone else who was writing BoB OC fic and they gave me the courage to really go for it and post it! they were someone i could really talk to, which helped me to understand my writing, my OC, and my development for the story as i went. having someone there to be your cheerleader and help you navigate things - i found that to be incredibly helpful!! :)
i'll keep typing under the cut haha
SO, i ended up posting the fic and it really gave me a driving force to keep creating and writing, and each time i uploaded, i became more and more confident. i initially posted to Wattpad, but then i started expanding more on here, and trying to do more and then began posting my third BoB fic on both AO3 and Wattpad and that seemed to draw in interested people, and i have since continued with that platform from there.
i'll be honest - i've gotten busier over the years, so i've slowed a bit with how much content i put out, but make it manageable for yourself and what you want to read and write and enjoy! i struggled a lot with that, but finding your groove and what you enjoy is definitely one of the more important factors of it all :) i split between MOTA and BoB and write when i have some extra time, and what i feel like writing and it makes things enjoyable!!
another thing i've really loved - writing snippets, posting moodboards, song inspo, writing one-shots/taking prompts - it helped me to understand characters and dynamics much better than i thought it would! and drew some people who were interested in as well! it was just fun to create and feel some enjoyment with those OCs and characters through the years!
i think always go with what you're comfortable with, but posting about the fic, putting it on tumblr/AO3/Wattpad, wherever you are comfortable posting, or chatting with people is always just things that i've done and seen others do, but i always do it to the extent that i find fun and enjoyable - and there are SO MANY wonderful people who would love to chat, read and discuss anything MOTA/MOTA-fic related (including me haha!), so explore and enjoy!!
this wasn't entirely coherent, but is how i usually go about things at a pace i think is manageable for a busy college student!! do what you love and enjoy!!! SIKED to hear more about this benny x oc fic haha!! :D
