Soooo I just saw the second season of KOTZ and now whoever's reading this is going to suffer, because yeah I abuse punctuation and caps and I grumble a lot, sorry.
(and yes I always watch things years later why do you ask?)
Where's my good-natured Aldebaran who laughs rather than frowns and gets all paranoid? At least develop him if you want to change his personality.
You had 12 episodes to cover ~7 Gold Saint fights and instead of developing the Gold Saints or the Bronze Saints you chose to flood the show with filler?
Very badly written and very badly timed filler that broke the flow of the show???
WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO JUNE?!?!?
Did... did you think that Kiki was not annoying enough on his own? You had to give him a partner? And that partner had to be JUNE????? Was it like a "she's blonde so she can be the childish impulsive girl" kind of thing?
I mean yes Shunrei has a little backbone and Saori got to defend herself and do a little speech, so I guess that was enough empowerment and it justifies doing that to June.....???
I'm not even going to mention Shaun, to me this is original series Shun whose voice hasn't broken yet.
What... what was that with the butterfly???? I... nope. I just can't.
That whole thing on Star Hill was so very very very stupid.
The concept of Mu and Aldebaran investigating with Marin and June was intriguing, and then it got really boring and silly.
Why. The fuck. Were there SKELETONS??? did you think it was such a good scene in the original that you needed a whole episode of that? Totally pointless.
You know where the show actually holds up and has good moments? When it follows the manga/anime faithfully! Go figure!
Is it meant to look like the characters are plastic action figures? I'd forgotten about the textures on that show and... it's a choice, I guess? I don't hate it, but it's jarring at times.
The animation, however... most of them walk like they've got sticks up their butts. Or like their Cloths weigh 500kg. Which they don't. Because if your Cosmos is healthy the Cloth... oh nevermind.
I mean I enjoyed bits of it. I enjoyed it much more than Super Technology Talking Grate Saint Seiya from the first season. But there were some very very poor choices there that didn't make the show as delightful as it could be, shall we say.

we’re revisiting The Hug
so like. i knew it would be this episode but the entire sequence of events is so fucking incomprehensible.
>ginro wakes up (kohaku is already awake and Just Watching with the rest of the group)
>ginro ogles kohaku IMMEDIATELY upon waking up
>kohaku punches him, teehee funnie moment whatever
>cue emotional shiny eyes from kohaku AND senku
>THEN kohaku runs towards senku
>senku turns his body to receive the hug, emphasis on his feet (not featured in the manga, but it’s both a transition shot AND to show that senku is an active participant in his own way)
>they hug, extra shiny eyes
>kirisame blushes.
> gen is like ‘oh right you still think they’re in a relationship LOL’
>amaryllis elaborates in agreement with gen that yeah their relationship is not romantic.
ok ok ok ok ok. EVERYONE CHILL OUT. obviously ginro is not going to take his almost death seriously (even tho he’s had serious moments before) i think the hug does have a deep feeling of gratitude, senku has shown time and time again that he can be trusted and he’s willing to risk everything if it means saving everyone, so the mission was accomplished…. but this is anime so it is to an extent some good ol fanservice.
i find the sequence confusing because kohaku was already awake so she could have hugged him immediately after waking up but she waits until EVERYONE has been saved in order to celebrate so i understand her reasoning completely, the tone shift is just really insane.
too much shonen anime has primed me to view this reciprocal emotionality as inherently romantic but several things do feel at odds. kohaku brings up romance when she meets him the first time, and then when describing her perfect romantic partner sorta implies senku bc literally who else could it be, but then the people around them are like ‘yeah no it’s not like that’
on one hand i’m like, the characters’ commentary on the hug feels pointed. like. telling fans ‘do not ship them!! you look silly when you do this!!’ but on the other hand, reverse psychology. the continual insistence that their relationship is not romantic (some other thing that is never named, platonic? familial? likely both) seems like inagaki might be negging fans to keep the ‘will they? won’t they?’ dream alive bc it maintains engagement. i’d be soooo mad if i was a kohaku/senku endgame believer either way because everyone and what feels like the author too continues to exclude one way of viewing their relationship. first gaybait straight pairing to exist.
im inclined to believe the characters commentary based on who they are and how they serve the narrative. amaryllis is a seductress (for lack of a better term) and can read men quite well, while gen is The Psychology Guy so his insight based on working with them for a couple years and his ability to read people is basically gold.
anyways they do not end up together in the canon narrative (LOL) so this rant was a little bit pointless, i was just taken aback by how they decided to animate this scene it was WILD.

Anime Update V2 19
Noragami Aragoto - Halfway through the season with the last two episodes of the Bishamon arc. I felt so terrible for Bishamon here and while at first I wanted Kazuma to face heavier consequences for the trauma he’d caused her in the past, having to live with his mistakes and atone for them is the better option. And I got soooo much satisfaction out of how things with Kuguha played out. Like Unalaq from The Legend of Korra, his compensation for being such an incredibly boring and unpopular antagonist is being so utterly loathsome, like somewhere between Tonpa from Hunter x Hunter (1999) and Takaoka from Assassination Classroom level of loathing. So watching him just lose his composure, throw a big tantrum like a whiny, attention-deprived child, and get forcibly cast out of his Regalia status as he’s screaming for mercy was cathartic as hell. While all seems well for not just Bishamon and her remaining Regalia family, but our main trio of Yato, Yukine, and Hiyori (who lived through this, thank God!), Nora answering a call from her father means that she’s far from done creating trouble for them to deal with.
Hunter x Hunter - Watched the final phase of the Hunter Exam to its (seeming) conclusion in both adaptations.
1999 - I thought the way things were depicted here were far less effective compared to the 2011 anime. Killua stating his one desire is to be friends with Gon is meant to reveal the sincerity of how he feels about Gon, but this anime already had him reveal that in the interview with Netero so this now has much less of an impact, not to mention he and Gon’s friendship feels a little understated in this version to start with. There is then a pointless skirmish between Gon and Illumi, followed by an equally pointless fake-out of Gon, Leorio. and Kurapika having to separate, which just felt like a time waster.
2011 - Thankfully those pitfalls were avoided in this adaptation. Moving the part where Satotz remarks that the true final phase of the Hunter Exam isn’t quite over yet to the very last scene was a great call, and Hisoka talking to Illumi about waiting “for the fruits to ripen” (in reference to Gon and Killua) was disturbing and scary as fuck here! If I’ve got one criticism, it’s with the dub, as I feel like Chris Hackney was rather miscast as Illumi’s voice. The voice he has in the Blue Water dub of the 1999 anime fits the character far better.
Fruits Basket - 2022 is halfway over and the characters in this series are already celebrating the coming of a New Year!
2001 - The first half of this episode was not particularly strong as yet again we’re treated to zany shennanigans around Shigure’s house that didn’t happen in the original manga. Most of it wasn’t that funny and I just felt bad for poor Mitsuru by the end. When the second half actually got to telling the proper story, it got much better, even though some of the stylistic and tonal choices admitedly still felt off at points.
2019 - Much improved all around, but one part did raise an issue - Yuki and Kyo not looking forward to meeting with Akito and Kagura respectively at the Sohma Family New Years gathering was brought up quite a bit, like those two are the abusive family members the two boys are most wanting to avoid. But the equivalence falls flat when you remember that Akito exploding with rage, screaming and lashing out with violence at their loved ones is played dead seriously while Kagura behaving the exact same way was played for laughs! It just reinforces what a disaster the writing for Kagura is, and we can’t even say this is a double standard based on “girls abusing guys is funny, but guys abusing girls and other guys isn’t” ‘cause, spoiler alert, Akito isn’t a guy! So it’s just an all around failure in the writing.
Rozen Maiden - The two episodes about Suiseiseki’s twin sister and the old man she lives with and how he’s slipped into madness due to the tragic loss of his son and his wife being comatose were, as can be inferred by just that description, the heaviest that this show has gotten to date in terms of how fucking sad that story is, and if that really was the boy’s ghost inside the mother’s dreamscape then that makes it all the heavier. Suiseiseki’s whining at Souseiseki got a bit old, but I like that they both have a new home and family now.
Fate/Stay Night - Gilgamesh got dealt with rather anticlimactically by Shirou and Saber’s combined power, so of course he’s not done yet and we’re going to have to face him at his full power later. But far more distressingly than that? At the very end of the episode, Shirou comes upon some dark secrets being kept by Kirei at his church.
Revolutionary Girl Utena - That Wakaba and Saionji episode, and their whole relationship, didn’t go the way I’d expected. While Saionji isn’t a total sociopath like Touga and is more capable of sincerity and decency regarding how he feels, his narcissism and constant want for status that matters and could take him out of Touga’s shadow made giving into temptation too easy for him when Mikage gets his expulsion reversed, at which point he totally disregards Wakaba again and leaves her feeling like nothing special. Poor Wakaba!
Love Live! Nijigasaki School Idol Club S2 - This second season continues to be a glowing step up from the first in its next two episodes, with Lanzhu reaffirming her stance on performing solo and being the center of attention, finding out more about Mia regarding her background and relationship with Lanzhu, Yu struggling with her composition assignment, and the total delight of Kasumi, Kanata, Emma and Rina stalking Lanzhu throughout a daily routine. The second episode also did something no previous Love Live! anime did by actually incorporating a “subunit” group into the show itself, as the four girls I mentioned there form Q4RTZ and make their big debut. The show is even starting to sound more like Love Live! than before. The opening song, Lanzhu’s songs, and Q4RTZ songs - all bangers!
MAR - Jack’s first fight in the War Games took an incredibly mean-spirited turn. All the demonstration of how strong he’s gotten and how well he can hold his own in a fight even when at a disadvantage, while his mother, the now reformed Rougilo brothers, and this mysterious delivery man are watching from back at Jack’s farm home, only for a single wrong move to turn it into a humiliating loss for Jack as he’s mistaken for being a no good pervert! Felt real bad for him, but I do have to give Pano props for her quick thinking there.
AMC: Gintama - 3 episodes of this show this time, one where Odd Jobs met the Gendo Ikari-looking government guy and had to retrieve and then kill the pet octopus of an alien prince, one where the Chief of the Shinsengumi doggedly pursues Shinpachi’s sister until Gin beats him in a fight all while the rest of the Shinsengumi’s exploits are being followed documentary style, and the last being sort of an immediate followup where Gin does battle with Vice Chief Hijikata when he comes after him during a job. Still such an insanely fun cartoon, and from all I’ve heard it can only keep getting better.
AND
Belle - This movie came out last year and now I finally got to see it. It drew me in with Suzu’s personal story and how she channeled all of her painful emotions over the tragic loss of her mother and her desire to sing into the online virtual metaverse of U and then totally changed gears from anywhere I’d been expecting that story to go by turning into a modern day Beauty & The Beast retelling. Honestly, I didn’t really get that into U itself, it’s kind of an eyesore at points, so playing out a compelling enough story with it definitely helped to keep me engaged. The biggest point of contention for me is that like Weathering With You, this is a movie that sort of falls apart in its final act. The idea that damn near the entire world, online AND offline, had gone bonkers over the mystery of the Beast’s true identity, the unfortunate implications behind who the Beast really is and why he is the Beast, and the sheer amount of narrative contrivances that even launch the story into a second climax right after a legit phenomenal sequence that seemed like the big climax already, broke a good deal of my immersion in the film and made me ready to see it just end already. But admittedly, the overall film and the high points it hit even in that final third were beautiful, and well worth the watch.

ZFAW Fan Content Creator Interviews: HayleyNFoster
Hey everyone! We hope you’re all excited for ZFAW, and to honor (ha!) ZFAW’s commitment to supporting and celebrating fan content creators in the Zutara fandom, we’re going to be rolling out a series of interviews with well-known and widely-beloved content creators over the next few weeks. We’ve got artists and fanfiction authors, some names you recognize as well as a few phenomenal up-and-coming talents, and we can’t wait for you to meet them all!
For the second interview in this cycle, we have our best propaganda creator and this fandom’s hottest new artist/undisputed queen of the animatic, @hayleynfoster!
1. Tell us about how you came to ship Zutara. What does this ship mean to you?
When I was around 14 or 15 and caught Avatar: The Last Airbender on television, I was drawn in by the art style, the humor, and the wonderful characters. I caught the episodes out of order, and the first one I saw and wasn’t prepared to be sucked in by was The Waterbending Scroll. It intrigued me at that age, and the line “I’ll save you from the pirates” combined with the tension between Katara and Zuko in that whole scene was electrifying. I remember my teenage self thinking these two have so much chemistry! And when I saw a commercial on Nickelodeon that featured fanart submitted by fellow Avatar fans, I realized that I could do that to! So I set about making Zutara fanart for myself. I stumbled onto Youtube, practically in its infancy, and discovered that people set clips of Zuko and Katara set to music (And this was still in season 1 days… so people who made these amvs were the real mvps because they were able to make compelling narratives in their amvs with like practically nothing to work with!). The AMVs really spurred my interest in this couple, I remember distinctly one Zutara AMV using the Dido song White Flag utterly capturing my imagination. I found fandom shortly after, getting into deviantart and forums. But the ship really began to mean something to me when, as I was working on my drawings in the computer lab at school, a buoyant presence hovered over my shoulder noticing my Zutara art on the computer screen. The girl was someone I had never really talked to and had only seen from afar but she immediately started excitedly saying she shipped Zuko and Katara too! In this simple shared obsession, I made one of the best friends I’ve ever had and we’re still friends to this day. We would theorize and fangirl over Avatar like it was nobody’s business; we poured over bootleg San Diego Comic Con footage that showed spoilers for season 2 before it aired; we lost our freaking minds when we finally saw The Crossroads of Destiny. We had watch parties every week as Season 3 of A:TLA aired, and comforted each other when the show ended as it did (much ranting was shared). Those are some of my happiest memories from high school… all because this one pairing from this wonderful show. Even though Zutara didn’t happen, we still chat every now and then about it. Zutara will probably be a lifelong obsession, always bubbling under the surface. And without it, I would have never realized that animation was a viable career path. It really did inspire everything including the work I’m doing to this day in the animation industry. I owe a lot to this ship and to Avatar: the Last Airbender.
2. What inspires you to create zutara fanworks?
The resurgence of Avatar: The Last Airbender this year really helped sort of spark that dormant love I had for Zutara. The show’s ending still disappointed me on the rewatch, but Zuko and Katara’s relationship arc was as captivating as ever, so I turned to some fanfiction and looking at people’s pretty Zutara art and AMVs to just revel in fanon instead of getting to hung up on the actual ending of the show. But then I realized, with quarantine and my work load being pretty light, I had time to actually make all new Zutara art for myself, art I was never fully capable of making as a kid, but now could do with my 7 years of industry experience and just… life experience. And I was inspired to do some corrective animatics to satisfy my own desire for a different ending. I just really like exploring these two characters, doing different and interesting things with them, and frankly I’m inspired to make cute, fluffy, romantic art simply by virtue of living in a really sad and depressing world. Things are so crazy right now, creating art about two characters I love being in love, is comforting. And it helps to have inspiring music and amazing Zutara amvs to just sort of stir up my emotions and imagery in my head to make into animatics and art.
3. Be selfish - if you could request one fanwork based on your own art/fanfic, what would it be? What would you absolutely love to see someone create?
Ohhhh… Well, It’s always nice to have people write fanfiction that puts words to my animatics. I am not that great at coming up with dialog myself, so I’ve just chosen to indulge in visuals and emotions for my boards. But when I read things like RideBoldlyRide’s take on my Reunion Animatic, it makes me pretty giddy. (They finally have voices!) :) And this is the MOST selfish thing I could request, but I’m not shy about saying how much I love well done amvs, so I will literally kill for someone to make Zutara AMVs to songs I like… Like, most of AURORA’s songs but especially Exist for Love, Sunseeker by The Naked and Famous, Promises or Take Me by Aly & AJ, Adore You by Harry Styles, Human Enough by ONR, Never Let Me Go by Florence + The Machine, and/or Almost (Sweet Music) by Hozier just… I can see the AMVs so clearly to any of these songs in my head, but I don’t have the tools or skill set at my disposal to make a compelling fan video. When I was in high school, I originally thought I wanted to go into video editing simply because I loved making very crappy AMVs (they were so bad you guys), but I figured out being a storyboard artist was more in my wheelhouse. haha
4. Any words for people who are new to the fandom and/or nervous about sharing their work for the first time?
If you’re new to the Zutara fandom, just have a good time! Don’t waste too much time arguing with people over your shipping preferences. I wasted so much of my teen years having pointless shipping wars with people on DeviantArt, and I’m just so much happier nowadays because I’m just making Zutara art in my little corner of the internet, and honestly, in the politest of ways, I don’t give a shit if people don’t like my art or Zutara. haha I think that’s sort of a key thing for people thinking of posting creative works here in the fandom, just make art for yourself, satisfy your own desires for the pairing, get your creative sparks flying, and create just for the joy of creating. It’s always nice to get comments and such, but simply making the art should be what spurs you on, not the external validation. And have a good time, don’t worry too much - I say as someone who worries about EVERYTHING. But honestly, making art for A:TLA is some of the most relaxed I’ve been because I make it just for me. I’m lucky others seem to like it too!
5. What’s an idea for a fanwork that you have but haven't gotten around to making?
I have an idea for a second generation storyline with my Zutara kids that involves Kya (the eldest firebending daughter) falling in love with an airbender boy (tentatively named Gora in my headcanon who’s a bit of a rabble rouser and one of Aang’s kids he had with a Kyoshi Warrior), and then they start a socialist revolution in the Fire Nation in order to dismantle all of the hierarchical societies across the Avatar world… Together Kya and Gora Fan the Flames of revolution… ehhhhh... Get it?? Oh! Oh, and then Katara, who had put in legit liberal reforms in her time as Fire Lady listens to her daughter after resisting in the first part of the story, but then realizes she can actually play a part in the dissolution of the royalty and is also active in the revolution realizing that moderate liberal reforms are no substitute for a society free of serving royalty (which she had always been uncomfortable with but had rationalized with herself that she was doing good in her capacity as Fire Lady.) I just feel like there’s a lot of cool potential for discussing these ideas and also having some aspirational change in the Avatar world. lol For aesthetics and just happy fluffy times, I can indulge in Fire Lady and Fire Lord Zuko stuff, but really at the end of the day, I take issue with the structures in a society that have to exist for monarchies to exist. Soooo, I kind of want to do my own corrective story for that… if I ever have the time or guts. On a less ambitious note, I would love to do a Zutara sparring animatic to practice doing action, but I need a good story; I am not good at doing fights just for fighting’s sake. Those are just some things I have rattling around in my head.  
6. Are you participating in ZFAW? If so want to give us a hint as to your plans?
Yes! The most I can say is I have one animatic almost finished and one that’s still being thumbnailed. The rest are probably going to be comics or emotive single pieces based on the fanfics I really like right now. :)

Conversation
Unnecessary Arguments - RWBY
*Spoilers*
Person #1: I’m only two episodes into volume eight, but it’s really impressive so far. My favorite was six, but this is amazing and might be the best
Person #2: You’re still watching that show? RWBY is terrible.
Person #1: I am so sick of people needlessly dumping on this show! They’ll make their own subreddit called r/rwbycritics. They’ll have hbomberguy make a 2 and a half hour video that basically translates to “animators good, writing bad.” And then, at the end of the day, you know what all those so-called critics do? They keep watching the show
Person #2: Because RWBY is so disappointing, it actually offers us some interesting insights into how not to do creative writing. Clearly it has potential, and lots of compelling ideas, yet somehow it still sucks
Person #1: Name one reason
Person #2: I’ll name three. The characters, the plot, and the world-building
Person #1: Seriously?
Person #2: Is it an edgy show about the apocalypse? A take on fables? A science fiction techno-thriller? Is it aimed at 12-year-old girls, grown men, anime lovers? Honestly, I’m really not sure what it’s trying to be anymore. It’s so uneven...volumes 1-3 were something like a story, 4 and 5 were garbage, then somehow we just flip the script in seven and make it some kind of techno cyberpunk battle anime
Person #1: You don’t really understand how good this show is. It’s okay to criticize a show
Person #2: Is it? You sound like you’re about to have a breakdown
Person #1: ...but no one who makes fun of it ever seems to really get what it is. I’m going to name you a few reasons why it’s brilliant. First of all, the premise doesn’t just boil down to a good vs. evil cliche - there’s a supposed good side and a supposed bad side, but the bad side can only succeed if it tears the good side apart. They represent that brilliantly. The evil minions called the Grimm are only truly strong when they detect negativity. Volume six hammers this home with evil minions that actually create apathy. This isn’t just your average battle series, it’s actually a deep examination into the human soul
Person #2: “A deep examination into the human soul.” Wow, are we talking about Shakespeare? No, you��re talking about a stupid web series
Person #1: Why do you just keep making fun of it without backing anything up?
Person #2: I’d love to, but there’s just so much to work with. Season one, they steal dust. Fine. Why? No reason, plot point dropped
Person #1: That’s so dumb, man. Dust is used for ammo and explosions. No one has the brain cells to figure that one out
Person #2: Volume five was garbage
Person #1: Character development!
Person #2: Speaking of characters, you kill your robot and then bring her back from the dead...thereby eliminating all the negative consequences and emotions associated with her death. No one ever really dies
Person #1: I can name three characters who are DEFINITELY dead
Person #2: And it’s just...you’re flying by the seat of your pants so much. Are we collecting relics? Are we gathering the maidens? It’s just quest after quest, each one slightly more pointless than the last, until we’re on volume 20 and NOTHING HAS HAPPENED
Person #1: Spoiler - in volume eight things ARE happening. If you really hate this show so much, why don’t you just fk off and ramble about how amazing BMHA is, instead?
Person #2: Because you guys just can’t take criticism. Also, what’s with all the random chess metaphors? They just kinda force it is
Person #1: NO THEY DON’T. That’s actually brilliant
Person #2: Oh boy, that word again....
Person #1: Volume three, notice the tower? Notice how it resembles the king in a chess game? Subtle clues. We asked for a chess anime, and they gave it to us...but it’s very subtle
Person #2: Yes, leaving a chess piece for your enemies to predict that you’re coming is soooo subtle
Person #1: Then they have to put it into the intro so idiots like you can figure it out. What is your argument, in the end? That the characters are TOO developed? That the plot is too complex for your little brain to figure out?
Person #2: No, my argument is that it’s garbage because of a writing idea we call scarcity. Who cares about random items that give you superpowers if there are ten other superpowers to worry about? Pyrrha was the best character because her powers had a limit - going to full power essentially meant she would have to die, in a sense, but now here comes along Ruby with her sharingan powers and super speed that actually isn’t speed. Jaune? His semblance is actually the best. Also, the robot got her maiden powers with virtually no consequences at all
Person #1: All the characters have obvious flaws, you just don’t see it. Ruby is confident, but not as mature as the others. Yang is too headstrong. Weiss still has a lot of baggage. The team has to balance itself, but how CAN THEY when the adult guardians who are supposed to serve as role models are actually falling apart in the same way? It seems like an endless cycle, the military forces and the school forces and the corporations constantly opposing one another while the true threat triumphs. And the Big Bad, the ultimate villain, actually CAN’T WIN without tearing at their own division. It’s like a greater metaphor. It’s genius
Person #2: Agree to disagree

pointless rambling abt childhood & dragons under the cut
sometimes i think it's very funny that im so fixated on flight rising when i was a horsegirl for soooo many years... and kind of still am in many ways
and then i remember that once, when i was in kindergarten, we were given an assignment prompt that was like, "if you made up an imaginary animal companion, what would they look like/what would their name be/what would they be able to do" etc etc etc
and did 5-year-old me make up a fancy special little horse imaginary animal companion? no, i did not. i made a dragon. and proceeded to more or less manifest that little bitch to myself for the next three years as an imaginary friend lmao. so me being this into FR shouldn't be a surprise at all actually??

Working for Love: A Terrormoo Story, 1/17
Okay, soooo...surprise? For some reason, the first week of November I wrote this entire story. It’ll be broken down into 17 parts, about 4-5 pages each. 
Yes, this means I wrote over 26k words in one week. I don’t know either.
This is a story that I’m dedicating to @personfullofplotholes because of all the work she’s helped me with for my BBS, MCU, and personal writing. Without her, Libahunt wouldn’t be a thing, and I’d probably be out of the fandom completely. 
So this story will be posted every Saturday! I hope that you enjoy! ^.^  
Main pairing: Terrormoo There will be other pairings mentioned through it, though not in detail and no real moments or focus.  But they’ll be dabbled in there, so fair warning. 
Drabble One
Brock was not lazy. 
Really, he wasn’t. Sure, he lacked the active schedule he’d had when he was in high school. College had been a hard transition, and though he managed to get through it with a 4.0 GPA, his health took a hit. Making ramen noodles at three in the morning was simply easier than trying to prepare a balanced meal and study for his economics final. His friends hadn’t mentioned any changes in his waistline or that his cheeks had plumped up through the college exams and parties. The pants he’d shimmied into after high school were stuffed in the deepest corner of his closet by the last year of college, but he was genuinely happy with his life. He had a positive group of friends and a financially stable job as a teacher. Brock even got an apartment that had come with a gym membership to ‘Wildcat Athletics’ (the landlord, Nogla, said that he was ‘best buddies’ with the owner of the gym, and worked there on weekends) for as long as he was a tenant and paid his bills on time. 
The only thing that even reminded him about his weight hangups, if he was being honest, was his boyfriend. Or, well, his ex-boyfriend. That factor was the exact reason that Brock stood outside of the aforementioned gym, lower lip dragged between his teeth on the chilly Monday night. Valentine’s day had been over a month ago, but still held more heartbreak than love for Brock. He’d been left stunned and insecure by the cruel words his lover had used to end their relationship. 
“I can’t be with a guy who doesn’t want to fix what’s wrong with his body. You’re just too heavy for me to keep pretending to be attracted to.” 
Two years spent fostering a welcoming and loving relationship had meant nothing because Brock now had love handles? His ex was in better shape than Brock from day one, but he’d assumed their relationship was built on more than looks. Brock had always been a little heavier, yet he balanced the slight physical shortcomings with his endearing personality. Never once had his ex complained about his body when Brock let him borrow his car or covered some of his bills during his ‘career transition’ between jobs. When Brock’s raise meant a vacation to Iceland, there were no complaints of thicker thighs and missing abs in the natural hot springs. He’d never made comments about the weight gain when the two were between the sheets, though recalling their love life over the past six months, Brock could remember several times his shirt remained untouched through their sex. The touches lacked the romantic charge they’d held at the start of their relationship, when Brock’s hips fit better under his hands and his shoulders weren’t rounded by stress and long study sessions. 
But now all of these ‘burdens’ were too much for his ex to handle, and after his scathing comments, the man left Brock broken and crying in his apartment without a second glance. 
“You’re not doing this for him,” Brock reminded himself, hand gripped tightly onto his phone to keep from turning around and heading back to his car. He’d already visited the gym a couple times over the past week, but always felt the impulsive desire to leave as soon as he stepped out of his car. His shirt was the baggiest he could find in his collection, hoping that it’d cover the lacking muscles and stretch marks he’d been staring at for weeks. 
His break-up had been the catalyst for coming to the gym, but it wasn’t the only reason. Brock had several other contributing factors. Nogla’s face looked so hopeful when Brock mentioned he’d checked out the gym, and exercising gave him something to do to get him out of the house. He did get a small burst of pride each time he finished his walk on the treadmill, though he hadn’t been able to use it to take on the weights. For the most part, the gym wasn’t saturated with muscle-heads or judgemental members, and people who were in the same shape as him looked content going there. He’d only met the owner, Tyler, once, but he didn’t give a judgemental stare or rude comment when Brock mentioned Nogla’s offer. He did look grumpy while having Brock fill out paperwork and take his photo, but Nogla reassured him that it was just ‘his normal mood’. 
Night workouts were always met with less clutter, as most didn’t want to work out after a 9-5 job. Brock’s guilty pleasure of sleeping through three alarms kept him from being a morning warrior, and he enjoyed the quieter time. 
“Hey, welcome back.” He gave a small smile to the man who greeted him at the front counter before showing him his scan card.
“Hello.” He didn’t muster up the courage to exchange any more words than the polite greeting. ‘Evan’ (as the nametag offered) was handsome and kind, his smile disarming and real each time Brock came in. But his ex’s grin had been charming, too, and Brock wasn’t good enough for him. Brock was reminded of how the frumpy college t-shirt had a hole in the right shoulder and a stain under the logo that would be impossible to find attractive. Plus, Evan was far too attractive to be single like him. He tried to make his own smile hide his negative thoughts when he dropped his gaze and took the card back, scampering to the safety of the treadmills. 
There were only a few people in the gym, and the station he liked to use was free. The tv in front of it played Animal Planet, which helped him through the harder parts of his routine. Plus, it was furthest in the corner of the gym, meaning that most members didn’t see him. The less people that caught sight of his flushed face, sweat stains and pathetic gasps, the better. His water and keys were tossed into the holders before he fumbled through the buttons of the machine, feeling confident enough to push his level to ‘4’ instead of the 3 he’d been hovering over for the past week. In seconds the belt was moving under his feet, and with Maroon 5’s ‘Give a little more’ playing in his headphones, Brock threw himself into his workout. 
It wasn’t long until the higher leveled routine took its effect; Brock’s legs tingled with protest at the higher incline as each minute passed, but he tried to keep his mind focused on the music pounding in his ears. His chest expanded with greater desperation after minute seven, and Brock had to close his eyes after the ten minute mark to keep himself from shutting down the machine. The pads of his fingers were clammy, making it hard to change the song on his phone to something with a heavier beat. Another change in the treadmill’s incline had brown eyes looking to the TV, though dismay flooded him at the breaking news that was interrupting normal programming. The boring story didn’t have subtitles big enough for Brock to read, meaning looking at the screen was pointless. His eyes pulled away from the speech to find something else to distract him. It only took a few seconds to find the stairmaster, though the intimidating machine was not what caught his interest. 
There, practically jogging from the speed he was using, was a man that rivalled the treadmill’s ability to leave Brock breathless. The sweat that made Brock’s skin fluster and smell looked much different on the other member. The muscle tank top was cut open wide under the armpits, leaving an easy window to peek at the fit torso and stomach hidden under the cloth. If the thirteen minutes of torture hadn’t already turned him into a persperating tomato, Brock was sure he’d be blushing. He winced at the realization he’d been staring before he forced his eyes back down to his hands, watching chubby fingers clutch the pulse monitors like a lifeline. 
“Don’t stare, that’s creepy,” he huffed to himself. If he didn’t need his hands stable to keep from falling off the machine, he would have smacked himself. People were not at the gym to be objectified. Even if the man was beautiful, he had the same rights to a peaceful work-out. It didn’t matter how clear his skin looked, the cute way the front of his hair curled over his forehead from his work-out, or how bright his eyes were in the fluorescent light of the-Brock visibly jerked at the realization that his eyes had betrayed him, looking at the gym member again. 
It’s not your fault, his conscience (in Mini’s voice, which made it so much worse) tossed out, Brock already rejecting the excuse as it formulated. He has really nice legs, and those pants are definitely spandex from how tight they are painted onto his ass-
The fact that his unconscious had picked up on something he didn’t even know he’d evaluated had him pulling away from the thought. Again, his eyes were following the sleek movements of the man, and he wanted to cry when he realized they were settled on the spandex-covered posterior. Embarrassment rearing up, a weird noise of protest bubbled out of Brock’s mouth. His feet stumbled for a moment, and he was sure that his sneakers made an unpleasant noise against the treadmill’s belt that echoed from how empty the gym was. 
Horror rushed through his bloodstream as the blue eyes from before glanced his way, Brock ducking his head as low as he could during the worst part of his workout. He could barely keep himself walking up the high incline, but the lowered head made it so much harder. The sticky feeling of sweat clung to the collar of his t-shirt and the fabric against his back. He must have looked like a disaster, and the hottest guy he’d ever seen in the gym was looking at him. For a moment, he wished he could melt into the floor. Two grueling minutes went by before Brock finally raised his head again, breath shaky from both the work-out and his embarrassment. The blue gaze was still focused on him, and then a wave was paired with a beaming smile. He didn’t need to look to know his face was the reddest it’d ever been. 
Thankfully for Brock, the timer on his treadmill hit twenty, and the belt slowed to a stop. He didn’t hesitate to jump off the treadmill, eyes dropped to the floor when scampering from the embarrassing situation. He barely remembered to wave goodbye to Evan, escaping into the cold of the night. The gasp of breath was chilling through his lungs, but with how hot his face was, Brock wished he could dunk his head into a bucket of ice. Why had that guy waved at him? Was he trying to show that he knew Brock was staring? What if he was just being passive aggressive? The entire ordeal was mortifying, and Brock could already hear how loud Mini’s laugh would be when retelling the terrible experience. 
One thing was for sure; Brock was never coming back on a Monday night again.
And there’s part one. This is a very silly and fun story, and it will jump between Brock and Brian’s POV. So if you wanna know what Brian’s thinking, you’ll have to wait until next week and see! So, what did you think? Likes and reblogs will always be a good way to show me some love. Until next Saturday!

Yugioh S4 Ep10 pt2: Yugi’s Never Ceasing Commute Continues
Last we left off, it was time to eat. Thank you. Thank you, Yugioh. You get me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Not one of their better spreads, TBH.
No cheese wheels, too. They are truly living in hard times.
(read more under the cut)
Rex and Weevil decided to look for rare cards in the rubble of Arthur Hawkin’s house.
I don’t know why they bothered with this, everything was very clearly exploded and on fire, but youknow, these two just seem to be very hellbent on being bad at life. Just two jokes that are here just to be jokes, wearing these duel disks that they’re not going to use until it’s finally time for them to betray us. Checkov’s jokes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And I hate to say this but they really are this season’s Bakura.
I know I just said that.
But this show really likes having at least one character that might turn at any moment and stab our protagonist in the back. They like to have at least one at all times there, hovering over Yugi’s oblivious shoulders, with that figurative knife (or literal, in the case of that time when Bakura stabbed himself without nearly any provocation).
In the past, when Bakura was out to lunch, we would have betraying friends like Kaiba, who would go solo in the middle of his own card game and end up throwing everyone in danger, and also Tristan who got full on possessed by the Big 5 and tried to murder everyone, but I guess after 4 seasons they were like “Youknow...I think Kaiba got over it.” and like...you can’t have Rebecca stab us in the back so lets bring Rex and Weevil.
At least their showtime is minimal, because unlike Bakura, who is pretty likeable even when he’s being an asshole, Rex and Weevil never turn off the asshole and are mostly just visual gags stumbling over eachother. Bakura was quite clever and had a bit of depth and mystery, while I don’t think Rex and Weevil are smart enough to even know how to spell mystery.
And if Rex and Weevil end up being good guys and the saviors of the whole show then my sincere apologies, but they are still kind of grating.
Now Rebecca gets a duel monster’s card that has a death threat on it, which is probably the normal way to sign your duel monsters cards in this universe. I imagine every card in Yugi’s deck has a couple death threats on each of them by now. Probably makes them more lucky.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ya so...
I can forgive this. The people who made this looked at a map of California, forgot that California is roughly the same size as Japan, and were like “I mean, there’s like 50 states, it can’t be that big.”
But here’s the thing about Death Valley. I am a Californian, but I have never been there. This is why.
Tumblr media
Death Valley is ASS to get to. Barely anyone lives there. Nothing goes there. You can’t just take a train, you have to drive there by going south past it and then turning around. It’s real round about and just in the middle of nowhere. May as well get there by flying into Las Vegas, and if you are flying into Las Vegas, chances are slim that you will leave that Vacation Town USA to vacation in a literal desert.
Clearly they saw the name “Death Valley” and got super excited but y’all...there’s a reason why we call it that, and everyone who knows about geography or is a Californian is kind of like “um...is Yugi...going to Death Valley???? That city slicker?”
Cuz this is not a normal desert. Normally, a human can survive 3 days without water, in Death Valley you apparently can only survive for 14 hours. It is the lowest point in the US and also the hottest point in the US and the place where the highest temperature was ever recorded on the Earth. And while that heat is only for 5 months of the year...it’s not winter in the show, is it? It’s fairly warm. San Fransisco wasn’t even foggy?
Like even the Death Valley website is like “please don’t leave the main roads and hike during the hot months” because y’all, this park is damn serious. Like this is one of the only National Parks that has not just one, but multiple ghost towns in it.
Don’t get me wrong, Death Valley’s very pretty and very fun I’ve heard, and it has like a very fancy dayspa in it, and if you like geography and like to rough it, then you will absolutely love how freakin weird Death Valley is. So, if you’re safe and know how to pack your gear, you’ll have no problem, but...Y’all, Yugi Muto, who barely survived Pegasus’ island (and only because Mai fed him) is going to just casually go into Death Valley.
In that outfit.
Tumblr media
Then, in some barn somewhere (I have NO IDEA where this exchange takes place) Rafael is grilling Arthur only to realize that this is a very pointless conversation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And in case you forgot Darts exist, he’s still out there, murdering people off for kicks. we’ll just add 20 more to the death count, the internet told me that’s the average amount of people on a fish boat of average size (although sometimes this boat seemed like the size of a shipping container barge but youknow...)
And in case you missed it, I have been doing the death counter wrong so I was 2 people behind--it’s correct now. With the rate this show goes I feel like we might see death 666 eventually. But, yes we did pass 269 so we’ll have to wait another 100, I guess, because it went to some rando on this boat. Nice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(The highest surface temperature of Death Valley ((not the air, but the ground)) ever recorded, was 201° F.)
(That’s 94° C for those in the back.)
I mean Yugi is part Pharaoh so I guess he just has a strong attraction to really terrible deserts. He’s also half a dead guy so maybe he also just has a strong attraction to being dead.
But I dunno, maybe this is the months of the year where Death Valley is manageable? Maybe? Possibly? We’ll just assume that it is.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now you can go horseback riding in Death Valley, as you can in any National Park, but it isn’t real normal to ride your horse all the way from San Fransisco. And like you can’t even let your dog off a leash in Death Valley. This is such a bad park for pets!
Tumblr media
Also, I found out some fun facts about horse travel, for anyone interested in writing fantasy and wants to know the average speed of a horse.
So a horse can go about 100 miles in a day, but only for one day. If you do 250 miles, the time has to be more spread out since you must recharge your horse. According to some horse-specialist on the internet who does horse marathons from coast to coast, if you have to do 500 miles, then you average about 24 miles a day, accounting for horse-recovery time and assuming it’s a horse that wasn’t bred for super long distances. (this is about a 500 mi horse ride, ps)
The pony express of old, the iconic Wells Fargo, would actually have horse stations along the prairie, where you would trade in your tired horse for a new horse, so that way you would never have to stop going 100 miles in a day. Since Yugi never changed his horse, this ride would have been absolutely ridiculous, and Copernicus the horse, would have stopped somewhere in Gilroy.
But this is a kid’s show so wtv, we’re gonna ignore that.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(reminder that Yugi decided not to unhitch the perfectly serviceable truck and drive away with air conditioning.)
And Yugi really did make Rebecca promise not to tell these much older teens that he took off (something about how he doesn’t want to put more people in danger yada yada, normal Yugi stuff), but the show kind of blames this on Rebecca...but like...she’s 12. This one is on Yugi.
But, if Rebecca were older, maybe she would have done the same thing. Rebecca seems like maybe the type that realizes that when you like an idiot boy, you gotta let them do idiot things, and make idiot mistakes. You can’t just control what your friends do all the time, unlike this crew, which is controlling because that is the only way they keep eachother alive.
Tumblr media
So Joey decides to ignore both of the cars right next to him, and just book it to save his stupid ass friend. On foot. To Death Valley. From what the show insisted was just outside San Fransisco.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And I guess that Rafael decided to just let Hawkins go?
Probably because Yugi got on a horse and Rafael was like “of course I know Yugi is chasing me on horseback off the main roads. Of course I know that.” and then he just...let Hawkins walk all the way back...
Hawkins should be dead, but not yet.
So lets check out Death Valley.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So like...again I just think they probably boarded everything and had a rough idea of “America has a bunch of natural canyons, right?” and didn’t realize that the Grand Canyon was soooo far from California.
There are actually canyons in Death Valley but like...I dunno if the art matches that so much? They aren’t nearly as massive as the canyon situation farther East.
Again this was their art choice that they made and it’s...a choice. And they committed to it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And this bike thing happened?
This tandem bicycle for children lost among the wreckage of Rebecca Hawkin’s home is like a whole “baby shoes, never worn” short story in itself. Rebecca has nooo siblings or parents, right? She has a really old grandpa who is like 80 and doesn’t bike? Just uh...bringing that up...was this tandem bike for her to hang out with Yugi? Does Rebecca even have friends her own age? She already graduated college.
So much inferred by the bike that I know is just here because it’s a funny joke to see Rex and Weevil on a stupid tandem bike.
So I’ve heard about the bike/car/horse paradox before in regards to this season, (it’s one of the few things I knew about this season before going in) so I’m happy to see I’ve recapped enough Yugioh to see it play out.
Tumblr media
The paradox being, if Yugi is on horseback, and Rex and Weevil are on a bike, and the rest are in a car, who arrives first?
Apparently the show itself isn’t even sure because Rex and Weevil can keep up with a horse???
Anyway, the correct answer to the paradox is that everyone not in a car is dead for not bringing any water.
Everyone except for Raphael, who probably put a camel pack into each of his shoulder pads.
Tumblr media
OH NOW IT’S AN ANIME.
I don’t get why this is happening. But it’s a thing now. Rafael has either literal or metaphoric wings. Bear in mind I thought Pharaoh was Metaphoric for like 14 episodes. These Icarus wings might just be real. Rafael might have been a card this entire time, and I wouldn’t even blink.
Anyway, if this is your first post of mine you’ve seen of this, my apologies, we’re in S4 and this is very confusing. You can read from S1 ep 1 in chrono order by clicking this very handy link here!

my journey with eddsworld has been so different from the other fans and it makes me feel like an odd one out :/ ew inspired me to draw more when i was about 8-9 years old (2011/2012) and helped me realize that i can actually do something with my ideas. but i wasn’t an ew fan in 2012, i watched some of it and it subconsciously inspired me but i wasn’t a fan. i was focused on a different series at the time. i remember watching fun dead when it came out in 2014, and then i totally forgot about ew’s existence. when the end dropped i became obsessed with legacy ew and it was my biggest special interest until some point in 2017, when i got frustrated with how washed out the fanbase was (how the characterization was repeitive throughout fans) and tord kinnies became a scary and toxic part of the internet (i was not a part of kinsworld but i had many bad friends who were). now that i’m back into it i’m much more focused on pre legacy and it feels a lot more warm and happy. i do appreciate tomska and do not mind legacy really but gdmn the legacy fandom was soooo toxic in 2016-2017 from what i remember, i was friends with the person who caused that tomska drama that one august that made tomska snap and post about wanting to cut ties with ew fans. due to this i just can’t go back to view legacy in the same positive light i once did, but pre legacy speaks to me a lot more since then. i don’t know if it’s a way to deal with how toxic legacy was for me or if it was really just how nice the Pointless Flash Animations of some dude’s ocs that were inspired by Friendship Hijinks were.
so i can’t relate to the side that got into ew through the end, or the side that was there before, bc i don’t fit into either really. i just Like Eddsworld a lot

Indy’s stories
Part 1: I Am Alexandra Alister
Heat. The kind of heat that stuck to your skin like a second layer. That only kind of heat you feel in the dense humid jungles of south America. Pushing vines out of her path, Indy walked further down the trail. It was at least another hour of walking before she got anywhere near the closes town. Sweat rolled past her brow, her clothes drenched with her sweat, Indy didn’t mind as much as she kept walking. Today was the day she’d leave to go back to London, to go back home. 
‘Eight months…since I’ve been home. I should be excited. Right?’ 
Indy pushed the thought out of her mind as she focused on her surroundings. ‘Focus’ she told herself. The chirps of the birds in the air and trees, The screeches of monkeys and other animals in the distance. Soft crunch as her foot hit the floor with her every stride, the smell of wet dirt, the annoyance of mosquitos. She was far from home and nowhere near safe in this thick jungle. Anything can happen at any giving moment, she had to be kept on high alert if she wanted to go home. Though she had to admit training out here for the past eight months have definitely heighten her senses but it also dolled her emotional connection. Now that was something she didn’t want to admit to herself, in fact it kind of scares her. Once more she pushed her thoughts out of her mind and continued on the path that lead out the thick jungle. She wasn’t alone though ‘Thank the heavens for that’ she would have probably lost her mind had it not been for Amir. Now he’s the real reason why she decided go pursue the harsh training. He knew things that she wanted to know, things that would hopefully soothe this ache she’s felt for so long. Things that would make her fully understand where she came from, her place of birth. She wanted to know her real mother. 
Indy had been adopted when she was just a day old by a young archeologists named Venessa Alister. Indy grew up with a wealthy family, they loved her like their own. She has an older sister and a grandfather who was also an archeologists. But her adoptive father didn’t care for her as much. After her adoptive mother passed away when she was just 6. Her father gave up custody and sent her to Scotland to an orphanage and her sister to their grandfather’s. Indy’s life changed after that. She endured a lot at a young age. But that was all in the past now. She looked forward seeing the familiar road that lead to the small town. She exhaled deeply, finally relieved she made it.
“Your absolutely sure about this?” Indy said, she didn’t look at Amir as she was busy walking down the dirt road into town. She wasn’t too happy about Amir’s idea Of a ‘Test’. 
“Think of it being of part of your training.” He try sounding enthusiastic about it but Indy didn’t buy it. 
“I just have a bad feeling about this. I don’t like it.” She confessed, she didn’t want to do it but this was something long over due. It was time to make amends, it was time to go home. To see her family after 16 years and Indy wasn’t sure what she would feel or how it would all play out. Would they hate me? Would they push me away? Or would they welcome me with open arms? So many questions, it was a bit overwhelming but it had to be done. Somewhere in her mother’s research and findings was some small truth  to her origin and if meeting the bloody bastard who had ripped any chances of a normal life for her. She couldn’t let that get in the way but then again she knew herself, she knew her temper. Indy let out a small frustrating groan. 
“I hope I don’t kill the bastard.” She had always imagined the things she would do to the prick. So many ways to hurt him, so many choices to choose from she thought. Amir shook his head, maybe this was a bad idea, maybe Indy wasn’t ready to face this part of her training. But there was no time. Indy had to complete it, so that she can be who Amir needed her to be. What she was destined to be even if she didn’t know it. But her anger was far more deeper than her mother’s, hell it was more than he thought. Maybe she wasn’t ready. He just hope it wasn’t a mistake. But he knew what she went through and he knew why she was doing all of this. 
“You have to remember to stay calm. Emotions lead to mistakes Alex. You must face your anger and learn to control it and push it down. I know this might be difficult but it’s what your mother would have wanted. ” He wanted to say more but that would only feed Indy’s rising curiosity. He had to lie to cover his plans but Indy wasn’t stupid. She had already picked up on his lies on more than one occasion. He may have known her mother  and Indy tells herself that, but why hide it? Why not tell her right away and end this pointless back and forth.
“And if I complete this part of my training will you tell me what happen to her? Why I was sent away to the Alister’s. Or am I not ready yet.” There is was. Her anger slip on the last part . She bit back her frustrations once more. She hated being lie too, hated being taken as a joke, hated being led on. They made it to the town and where on there way to the town’s station that would lead then to the city and eventually a plane back to London. 
[ my Story telling isn't all that great, it like 2am, I’m not good at writing but I have soooo many ideas I just want to jot down,Indy’s Storie are based around my og character named Alexandra Alister or for short Indy. she's a kickass treasure hunter who has photographic memory. I would love to do a crossover with Tomb Raider or have them share the same world. but I hope people like her........ if not i’ll still try to post stuff.]

1. Marriage Story- Never seen a film that did marriage and divorce so well.
2. Avengers Endgame- A almost perfect climax to a great saga.
3. JoJo Rabbit- Such a charming film especially considering the topic.
4. The Last Black Man in San Francisco- A underrated gem with great performances on a unique story.
5. 1917- The gimmick was needed to let you feel what it's like to go through war and how it never feels like it ends.
6. Uncut Gems- This movie is stressful. Also while I think Sandler was very good I don't think he should have won a Oscar for this but maybe nominated.
7. The Irishman- A great reminder of great actors and a great director. Might be the last time we see them this great.
8. Spider-Man: Far From Home- Didn't expect it to be as good as it was. Mainly cause of the great villian.
9. Toy Story 4- This was probably the funniest of the Toy Story series but probably the one with the least amount of emotion.
10. Shazam- One of the best family films of the year.
11. Rocketman- A wonderful music video tribute to one of the best!
12. Parasite- A good message for a crazy story that you don't know where it's going.
13. Us- Wonderful performance by Lupita makes this Twlight Zone episode worth watching.
14. The Lighthouse- Great performances and good atmosphere. Felt like I would have liked it more if it wasn't for the hype.
15. Midsommar- A bit disappointing considering how much I loved Hereditary but still good even though the story was predictable.
16. Missing Link- Underrated with its beatufiul animation and cute story.
17. Knives Out- The story is kind of a mess but the actors are having fun and it's a pretty fun movie for the most part.
18. John Wick 3- Feels similar to the first two but hooks you in the more you watch making it one of the best action trilogies.
19. Little Woman- A good story and film but I'm not so sure it needed to be told again.
20. Honey Boy- Can we all admit that Shia can act now?
21. Steven Universe The Movie- The show is better but the villian in this is sooo good.
22. Captain Marvel- Fun superhero story that people was too harsh to.
23. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood- Feel like Quentin ego and foot fetish hurts it but still a fun movie.
24. Bombshell- A important topic with good performances but felt it could have been done better.
25. The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part- It's not as good as the first but still fun and worth watching.
26. Joker- I mean Joaquin did do a great performance but he has done better and the story was a bit ehh. Possibly the most overrated movie of the year.
27. How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World: Beatufiul animation but the story and villian are lackluster.
28. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood- Worth it for Tom Hanks performance but the cliche story almost ruined it.
29. Fyre Fraud- A good story to tell that was told the right way.
30. Judy- Felt this could have been done way better if they focused on her childhood more but Renee is still good.
31. Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark- Kind of underrated but had a disappointing ending and some bad CGI.
32. Always Be My Maybe- Has one of the best cameos ever.
33. Doctor Sleep- Two scenes save this from being okay or bad but the rest of it is ehhhhhh.
34. Fighting With My Family- A cute story but feel like it could have been better if they told the real story instead of making up 40% of it.
35. Batman Hush- I think it's better than people say and didn't mind the change of the original but still kind of forgettable.
36. Detective Pikachu- Cuteness makes this one of the best video game movies of all time which doesn't say much.
37. Booksmart- Felt this should have been better but used the same tropes as most coming of age films do.
38. Yesterday- A cute story done in a unique way but nothing groundbreaking.
39. Wicked Shockingly Evil and Vile- The performance of Zach doesn't save it cause the story seems misdirected on what it wants to tell.
40. Glass- It's dumb and Bruce Willis is barely acting in this but still fun and a nice end even though some of it doesn't make sense.
41. Alita: Battle Angel: A good life action anime with a terrible love story in it.
42. Lion King- Was it pointless and way worse than the original? Yes but it was still pretty impressive to look at.
43. Childs Play- A unique way to tell the story but not sure it needed to be retold.
44. It Chapter Two- Wasn't really scary and kind of dumb except the birth mark part. But Bill Hader is sooo good in this!
45. Frozen 2- Probably the most disappointing film of the year. The story was a mess and borderline insulting to the original.
46. Dark Phoenix- The last action scene almost saved it but everything else was pretty bad.
47. Justice League vs. The Fatal Five- Everything is fine with this film except the Fatal Five. They were pretty boring.
48. Aladdin- Will Smith and Mena had good chemistry but still a pointless remake of a great film.
49. Beach Bum- Matthew does a fine performance but his character does something so bad and the film just treats it like whatever.
50. Pet Sematary- A pointless reboot of a great story. This takes everything great about it and makes it bland.
51. Culture Shock- A cliche Twlight Zone wannabe that had potenial but was disappointing.
52. Godzilla: King of the Monsters- The human characters were soooo bad but hey the monster fights were kind of fun
53. Wonder Woman Bloodlines- The beginning is pretty awful considering how they rushed it but the villian at the end nearly saves it.
54. Brightburn- How do you make such a lazy cliche film on such a interesting topic?
55. Dumbo- Dumbo was cute but everything else was pretty bad. WTF happened to you Tim Burton?
56. Reign Of Superman- Just as dumb as the comic.
57. Escape Room- Just as dumb as it sounds and predictable.
58. Happy Death Day 2U- Just because you're self aware how dumb this is doesn't make it any less dumb.

i kind of felt like i needed to make this post because i have been stressed out of my actual mind as of late and that isn’t helping me with my anxiety so i thought i would share some tips with you guys- friends in hopes that this helps you and also in turn helps me bc i am s t r u g g l i n g right now haha 
If you find yourself in panic attack/mental breakdown situations (during studying, sleeping, whenever):
1. TAKE A DEEP BREATH: this is legit some of the most underrated advice but this is so so so so so important. i often find myself holding my breath without thinking and even if you look stupid forcing yourself to breath between shaking and crying just do it. please. you will instantly feel better because bottling things up is legit the most toxic thing you could do to yourself
2. if the resource is there: talk to someone. talk to a trusted adult like a teacher, mentor, counselor, or even your parents. i know how it is: you might not trust them, believe me- i have had a fair share of adults who have let me down from time to time and trust me, once you find someone that is perfect for you to talk to, you will cherish that person for the rest of your life. I will never forget my first middle school counselor, i don’t know her name mainly because i was having a panic attack when i met her but i’ll remember her face and her hospitality forever. and she was a stranger to me at the time: sometimes you need that outside stranger to talk to you know? that way, you get a less biased? (idk weird wording there but you get it) response
3. FOOD AND WATER: i cannot tell you how bad i am at drinking water like it’s hopeless at this point but its SOOO important for you! pleaseee drink water. i think water tastes like nothing and it’s pointless to drink it but that is really crazy thinking so don’t follow me on that please because i am seriously working on it these days and my skin has started to clear up majorly but i also feel so much better in general? like hydration does wonders i’m serious- you might not even notice but it’s doing something nice at least to your body. food food food food food please eat something. i know sometimes when i dont eat a few meals because i am so caught up in work, i forget what it feels like to be hungry and that is absolutely ridiculous, do not skip that many meals. i don’t care if your grade depends on it tomorrow for chem or that you need to finish your slide for that group project: if you cannot remember what you ate last literally drop whatever you are doing and get a freaking granola bar- not even- get a sandwich, some chips, and a water or a salad or some carrots and hummus LITERALLY ANYTHING put it in your mouth and chew it slowly and savor your food and thank the universe that your food is making you more energetic to complete your work because honestly not eating makes you feel so weak and it shuts you down. and you know what? when you shut down, it gives you more room to be stressed and anxious because that happens to me too many times in my life and it is the worst feeling in the world: being anxious, sleep deprived, weak :( its not okay and i need my people to stop suffering so eat your carrots kiddos❤
4. nap! this is also extremely simple but soooo underrated. literally nap for like 10 minutes and you will feel SO GOOD afterwards. i know it takes me at least 30 minutes to fall asleep because that’s just me but as soon as i feel sleepy, i turn on my alarm. shutting your brain off for a few minutes does wonders: it actually recharges and resets your brain for a little bit and as long as you don’t sleep for too long, you will wake up more motivated than ever before! 
4.5 going off of the previous point: if you are truly tired, sleep. sleep. sleep. i cannot tell you this enough. there is absolutely no point and no shame in going to bed if you have a headache, your eyes are closing and you cannot focus anymore. plain and simple: it’s just a major waste of time and you will have to end up studying it again anyways. i try to get to bed around 11 which i know is already pushing the late boundaries but if you go to sleep and really, truly, need to finish your work in the morning, wake up a couple hours earlier and finish it quickly- maybe catch a few more z’s. it’s better to get your hours in earlier and wake up feeling better than going to bed at 4:30 (cough thanks nonso) and waking up 3 minutes before school because you shut off your alarm. i’m only telling you guys my stupid mistakes just so you know there are consequences to not following this advice people- this is first hand experience haha
5. TAKE YA MEDS KIDDOS: that’s literally it, you may have forgotten and now are in deep doodoo with yourself whoops set a reminder
if you have trouble sleeping/resting at night or whenever:
1. i have had trouble staying asleep throughout the night for the past few years now. i’m not sure how it started but my brain is just too hot wired these days to stay put: there are some quick things i do when i wake up shaking, panicking, restless, miserable, whatever in the middle of the night: 
 listen to rain sounds on spotify
listen to my favorite podcasts (i gotta make a post about this, message me if you want podcasts like asap after reading this something)
watch “planet earth” or “round planet” on netflix-  round planet is by BBC so there’s that old british guy talking and i think it’s nice :) overall, it’s super therapeutic i highly recommend 
make a warm cup of tea or milk: i usually put honey and cinnamon in my milk or honey in my tea and it’s quite nice i think, it makes me sleepy again
sometimes i wrap myself in extra blankets and cuddle with more stuffed animals to help me fall/fall back asleep. i think there is some nostalgic feeling about being tucked in and being all warm and safe that makes me calm down again i’m not sure why 
if you’re having trouble focusing while studying (i got through this at least once a day omg):
1. take a breather! drinks a glass of cold water, stare around the room for a bit, walk around the neighborhood or the house or the library or wherever you are for a bit- get that blood flowing again
2. look at something motivational! i have a motivation tag kind of thing on my page called #feelgood so you can check it out if you want haha but there are tons of motivational videos and posts from the studyblr community so :)
3. study something you are interested first! this is by far the most useful study advice i have ever received because it motivates me to subconsciously focus my brain and keep me in a “grind” kind of mood 
3.5 related to the previous point, study in small chunks! also switch up on the subject if you get bored.
4. do a hobby! i LOVE reading for fun during study breaks or when i can’t focus especially when i’m super interested in the book because i get sucked into that universe and after i finish a chapter i want to finish more work in order to keep reading- it’s great. i also love doodling intricate designs on my moleskine to keep my busy and i also like writing poems or editing photos. just find something that is calming to you in order to give your brain a break! once you have that little reset, i promise you will feel better going back to work 
5. stop studying? sometimes i burnt out in the middle of studying and you just have to realize when you’ve reached your limit for the night/day so just stop and get some sleep, there’s nothing wrong with sleeping or taking a rest just a reminder <3 and sometimes that means you can get back to your work later or not and that’s okay :)
along with my finals series, i’m going to dedicate an entire post for reasons as to why you should stop comparing yourself so look for that in the next couple of days or so :) 
and just a reminder that you can do it! no matter your barriers you WILL overcome them with flying colors and you will have an amazing summer very soon✨
love,
Nonso

He just fucking loves his gun
What is he doing over his head ??
We’re just gonna play a family game of baseball lol
Charlie cares so much :(
Charlie doesn’t even question that they’re going to play baseball in a thunderstorm
The baseball scene is in my top iconic scenes in cinematic history
Why do they keep the field so small if they hit the ball so far ???
Emmet my fuckboy baby
When emmet and Edward collide. Iconic.
These gay ass Mfers and their dramatic entrances
Why is putting her hair up going to help. It’s not her hair they smell it’s her blood? Right??
Vampires just go around claiming territory??
All around America??
James knows
Why do they hiss....
The fucking Cullen clan all just bend their knees and hiss like what the shit
“I can buckle MYSELF Edward”
This all went 0-100 real quick
Edward step up your acting game. Monotone ass mf
Charlie is so fucking confused
What even is she grabbing
Ok but Charlie’s so supportive of her and like all he cares about is her being safe oh my god
And he never knows that she didn’t mean any of what she said :((((((
That would fucking kill me oh my god poor Charlie
When they land on her truck... where are they coming FROM...
“Her kind” ... gingers?
Rosalie has a point...
Laurent was just a third wheel
Why do they drive so fast
How the hell was Bella even going to explain this to her mom??? What was her plan.
James.... Jesus your fucking face...
How did he get into the high school
You fucking dumbass you just gonna. Fight a fucking vampire? What is her plan? Fight him? Show up and take her mom and get out???
Also how did she even sneak past Alice and jasper
Wait how did he get this video
You dumb as shit bitch!!!
You can’t fight a vampire the fuck!!!
Why is the part where James shoved Edward against the mirror so sexually tense
This whole fucking ballet studio scene is just too dramatic
Why is she convulsing tho. Is that how it is when you turn into a vampire??? You fucking have a seizure???
Alice fucking SNAPPED
This whole series could have ended right here if they just let her fucking change into a vampire right then and there
Shut the fuck up and suck, Edward
Why her face look like.... that
Carlisle just PUSH HIM
Why are the tubes like ON her eyeballs
Edward sleeping... ha
The whole falling down the stairs bullshit story is so fucking ridiculous lmaoooo
“You’re texting” this movie is so old
Which leg is broken???
I almost killed you lol sorry. Also get the fuck out of Forks
Bella: *insert lady from lipstick in valentino bag vine*
Ok so her right leg is in the cast but in the hospital she was chillin in the bed with her right leg bent?
Jacob where did you come from lmao
“My dad paid me to come talk to you”
“Also you need to break up with your boyfriend”
The instant tension between Edward and Jacob and Bella is so fucking oblivious
“The wolves descend” REALLY EDWARD
Was their senior prom ever mentioned in the series???
She’s so fucking short omg
This music: A++
No seriously what is with everyone’s dresses being so ugly

(^:
HENLO!!! this is ur actual bday present, not that Gross thing i sent earlier lol. again, do whatever u want with it!! u dont have to post it or anything. it’s just easier to submit stuff like this than to, idk, send u an email like a señora lol.
ok so im doing this in bullet point format bc the last time I wrote a coherent, well-written paragraph was like 5 years ago or smth. anyway!! since u hated soooo much my beautiful, amazing, unique goths au im going with the loser couple au… which was also a college au of sorts?? dskjhksjdf this isn’t even an au, since y’all are already losers tbh (^: this also got out of hand…. this shit is eight pages long. idk enjoy bithc.
first of all, ck the kind of dude everyone’s lowkey scared of bc he’s silent and serious af. also he does seem kind of a weirdo, tbh?
youve seen him around, maybe you’re in the same dorms but u have absolutely no idea what he’s majoring in :o and u ask around but no one has any idea either!! oh wow a mystery~~
BUT he’s kinda cute hmmm (^: and u probably find the weirdo vibe interesting
however it’s so hard to get to talk to him. u always run into him when you’re out with friends or in a hurry to get to class so :///
but destiny works in mysterious ways~~~ and once u meet it’s rly. so unexpected.
actually, it’s awful since u get locked out of ur dorm sound familiar?? during winter break, rly late at night after a long study session at the library yes, the library, fight me. so u kinda just. sit down miserably outside ur room, since ur roommates are gone, cursing everything and everyone. u will eventually go looking for someone to help u out or smth but right now u need to Whine.
but oh my!! enter mister im changkyun!!! that weirdo who actually lives a couple of doors away from u (how come you never found out wtf???)
he sees u basking in ur misery and actually. finds u rly cute??? bc you’re pouting, cursing a little under ur breath, fumbling with ur phone. but u also look angry as fuck, ready to kill a man??? and yet you’re really fucking cute what the hell!!!!
so he comes up to u and asks u what’s wrong, to which u answer not so nicely without even looking up from ur phone, bc you’re rly so done with this situation ://
but then u look up and u See who it is fuck fuck fuck fuckfucbicvufkhkcfj
but since ck’s Nice and he understands that u must be having an awful time (and also bc he thinks youre cute) he offers to help u. you’re kind of skeptical since he’s just another student, what could he do???
until he tells u he knows how to pick locks lmaoaoaoaoa. that lil weirdo (‘:
anyway he saves ur night. but since he’s an annoying lil shit he’ll tease u abt it every time he runs into u for the rest of winter break.
since that day y'all basiclly become an old, bickering, married couple fnsdjdj
u never stop annoying each other…. you’re wearing a hoodie? he’ll probably pull the hood all the way down until it covers ur eyes, and u get him back by messing up his hair which, by the way,is so soft….. hmmmm
u call each other nerd and loser and dumbass all the time lmao. he’ll constantly bring up the way u met just to jokingly say that you’d be lost without him :/// he rly is a lil shit.
it’s funny bc everyone figures out u are falling for each other… except u two. and i rly do mean everyone. ur friends. his friends. ur roommates. ur cat. the janitor, too, probably. it’s so obvious it hurts.
one time someone implies u would be a cute couple and y'all literally go all ‘no???? haha me??? liking that loser??? pfft not in a million years’
it’s the biggest lie, of course (: and ever since that person suggested u would look good together, both of u kind of realize it’d be… nice. more than nice. actually, super nice.
but since both of u are dumb tsunderes,  as ive said before, u will literally be the embodiment of this scene… except it goes both ways. honestly u are so gone for each other it’s GROSS.
but we need some angst up in here so y'all dont get together for a reaaaaaaally long time :/ smh. the pining is Real. ppl come and go in ur lives, and each person u go out with sees that u already fell for someone else—and that’s why all potential relationships don’t last much–, but sdjkfhksjdhk!!! neither of u want to openly admit it.
it’s A Mess bc u are actually good friends and u tell each other abt ur dates and stuff—secretly hoping the other will do something—but y'all looove being dumb so u act like it’s all cool and be like ‘o rly!! good for u, i hope it works out’. right. :/
y’all keep dancing around each other for several months until one Merciful Soul gets tired of ur shit and forces u to sort things out. im talking abt locking u up in some room and not letting u out until u stop pretending u aren’t disgustingly in love with each other. or smthequally cheesy (: u know ilove cheese
((obviously everyone eavesdrops through the door bc cmon, theyve been waiting for this for sooooo long))
at first u two are just annoyed at the Merciful Soul betchait was minhyuk, and u spend ur time yelling and cursing them for doing this (all while claiming that this is pointless, since u have NO feelings for each other. none. nada!)
after a very long time, it’s ck the one that confesses first lmao. youve been whining and being grumpy the whole time youve been locked up together and it kinda reminded him of the way u met… damn. here come The Feelings.
he’s tired, and there’s nothing left to lose. so he tells u The Truth.
[suspenseful pause….. what’s going to happen next?? :OOOOO]……… tune in next year to find out, in the continuation of Cristina’s Cheesy Birthday Present!!!
jk, proceed to the next bullet point pls.
obviously u tell him u feel the same way [insert ppl crying in the background] and he’s actually shocked when u say u like him back…. and gosh, he does look cute when he’s surprised…
so yeah!!! it’s until then that u FINALLY go on a date during the weekend!!. hallelujah. thanks minhyuk,u beautiful soul.
so!!! ok!! first date!!! a rly cute fairground in the evening!!!
u try to be fake mean to each other like u used to but everything feels different~~~ (^:
so instead y’all act bashful as hell, and blush at everything jjdfghjfhd. hands brushing accidentally?? BLUSH. eyes meeting? BLUSH. BLUSH BLUSH BLUSH!!! u also laugh at everything bc both of u are so nervous oh gmhg fdknjjkdsfjoidf this is gross.
he’ll tell bad jokes to make u laugh and they’re rly so so so bad that he actually keeps u in stitches. if u look rly closely you’ll see his huge ass heart eyes bc !!!! he made u laugh!!!! and u look so pretty when u laugh omg!!!! dis-gos-tinnnnn
it’d be such a cute date tbh im crying just thinking abt it (‘’’’: obviously he’s a gentleman and he lets u choose what to eat, which ride to go to first, etc. u could literally tell him ‘hey let’s just sit down and do nothing’ and he’d say yes. he’s so gONe, ifmgfjdmf.
he’s kinda quiet and a lot shier than u wouldve expected but youre literally melting bc that’s a new side to him that you’d never thought you’d see.
u end up having so much fun (‘: u gross lil idiots, u.
oh and he’s def the type to ask if he can kiss u at the end of the night EYYYYYY
even if u find that incredibly endearing you’ll probably roll ur eyes with a huge ass smile on urlips lmaoaoaoao and call him a dummy for even asking when you’ve literally be in cloud nine since ur date started kjkhwjeqdkwjlk  
[hello, brief break to clarify that from this point i forgot this was actually a college au lmao, so the rest of the bullet points are literally just. random facts abt u two dating hhhhhh. We dont even know what ck’s major is odjfngnfdj]  
at first things are a lil awkward in ur relationship tbh
catch ck googling ‘how to relationship’ on a daily basis dnfndkfjdncn he is sort of clueless abt how to handle The Feelings. mostly bc this is Important and the last thing he wants is to mess it up )^:
that goes away eventually, tho!! he’ll start being his weird little self real fucking soon, so Get Ready
u still call each other nerd and all that stuff, but ur voices are dripping with fondness when u say it… literally everyone around u gets cavities from it, ew.
he’s not that big on planning dates but from time to time he’ll take u to rly cool, unexpected, interesting places :o  and eventually he’ll show u his favorite secret spots ((’:
study dates are a thing. i bet he’s that type of person that enjoys reading in weird ass positions… his legs are like, halfway off the couch and his arm is bent in a way that looks almost painful… what the hell….?? but it’s fine (: it goes so well with ur study methods, those that are Too Weird for the library, yeah?? (:
he will also stare at u a lot bc u look cute when you’re rly focused on smth that is, when u stop  whining abtstudying…
every time u catch him doing that you’ll go all ‘stop staring at me!!! wtf are u looking at u weirdo’ and he’ll answer ‘you’re so pretty~~~ ♥️♥️♥️’. you’ll blush like a lil idiot, naturally (^: hmmmm
and yea, yea. nap dates are a thing too :/// with sleepy forehead kisses and raspy voices and tangled limbs. all that sappy stuff. he’s a lil shit tho, so he’ll sometimes poke ur ribs to tickle u lmao.
buuuut he’ll also take a lot of pics of u sleeping bc he thinks youre cute )))): his faves always end up being his wallpaper for months.
he’ll get strange gifts for u, like rly bizarre plushies and rare books on topics he thinks u will like,  tacky anime memorabilia, etc. he’ll always give them to u at random times bc he just saw them and reminded him of u ♥️  
he makes a lot of playlists for u too!!! pls listen closely, he puts a lot more thought into them than he lets on.
u like his selfies??? well he’ll send u a lot of those. unfortunately, bc he’s a lil shit, he’ll mostly send double chins and weird ass faces from equally weird angles  
from time to time he’ll send u a Nice One tho ((((^: and u know, tongue selfies since youreSO fond of his(and I quote) “5ft tongue”. and oh gosh! is that a tongue piercing…??? eyyyyyy
if u want to take couple selfies then you’re gonna have a real hard time bc he’ll always be making weird faces and poses just to be annoying. eventually u will make dumb faces too tho (’: what a couple of losers
expect weird random texts: he loves telling u abt whatever is on his mind—probably aliens. he thinks a lot abt aliens and the universe. throw some conspiracy theories in there, too—. he’ll also send obscure memes. and a lot of russian cats!!
he’ll love ur cosplay hobbie. he thinks it’s super cool. he’ll call u a nerd but don’t be fooled! he totally brags abt it with his friends (^:
oh! and this is unrelated but at some point y'all will look like an emo goth couple. u won’t even realize that you’re both wearing black and looking Edgy, it’ll just happen spontaneously. tragic 😔
there are a lot of comfortable silences when u hang out, but late night deep convos are also fundamental :o!!! bc y'all are Smort.
he’ll act like f*cboi from time to time tbh?? he’ll tell lots of dirty jokes LMAO. u roll ur eyes at him a lot bc they’re rly. so bad.
if he winks or does Eyebrow Things then u can’t rly roll ur eyes and act like you’re annoyed bc (: u like it (: and u think it suits him (: and he knows it (: (: (:
u get back at him by telling him he’s cute tho, and he’ll get all shy and he’ll stutter and saying “noooooo” while also fighting back a smile
he will also howl or bark at u to annoy u jdfhkjdf. damn f*rry ://
on that note, he loves to embarrass u in front of ur friends bc he’s a lil shit :DD
But he’s also the sweetest??? whenever he sees you’re feeling down he’ll start doing weird shit to make u laugh. if that doesn’t work then he’ll hug u real tight without saying anything else, bc that’s Enough, u know?? (’:
ok time to get Domestic lads!!!
Idk who the hell is going to cook bc y'all are a damn mess in the kitchen. u two try to cook Nice Meals sometimes. seven times out of ten u end up ordering takeout lmao.
be prepared: he sings in the shower, and he does so terribly. (he might do it a little louder and a little more off-key sometimes bc he knows it makes u laugh)
random kisses are a thing!!! he kisses ur cheek or ur shoulder or ur nape or literally. any body part he can get his lips on when u two are just hanging out, watching movies or smth. it’s so soft and cute )^: wtf im crying
but also stolen kisses!! he’ll kiss u at the most unexpected of times and it alwaysleaves u breathless
he’ll constantly put his head on ur shoulder and make this face at u (^:  
can’t sleep??? don’t worry!!! he’ll sing to u with that pretty, soothing voice of his
anyway. what I meant is that y’all would be such cute little idiots together this was long af. wow. im so sorry. happy birthday??? lmao
