#they REALLY CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER OKAY

[palant1r]

its about how deep down toshiros resentment of laios stems from a place of self hatred. how laios is open where he feels he can't be. how he intensely regretted not being open about his feelings for falin. in the heat of the moment, throwing punches while he's starving and exhausted and traumatized out of his mind, he threatens to kill laois — but afterward lets laios sit with him as he eats, says he's envied laios, says he'll never set foot on the island again but offers to help him escape the consequences of the very thing he was so angry about.

i see posts, mostly joking, asking why toshiro could both fall for falin and her autistic rizz and hate laios's autistic swag. but like. that's not true at all. as much as laios grates on him due to his cultural background, he envies traits of laios that are autistic as hell.

toshiro and laios are two people who love so deeply and intensely it drives their entire being. they are two people who express love in ways that grind up against each other, and who were not able to articulate and communicate that for most of their friendship. and it all comes to a head explosively, horribly, in a moment of tragic revelation.

and yet when they part, still bearing the marks of each others' fists...

i want you to eat well and rest, laios says

i will send someone to help you from across the sea, toshiro says

Hey, I love women, I'm a lesbian, Beau and Yasha are my fav couple to exist in fiction, I adore Laudna and Imogen.

I'm ALSO super stoked that Dorian is back and that Orym is getting a cool moment to have some comfort and care, the lad needs it.

We really need to lift each other up. One person getting spotlight is not taking away from anyone else. It'll be okay.

There's a LOT of sexism and violence and hate towards women in "nerd spaces". With this being true, it seems super super unhelpful and in fact, willfully hurtful, to try and twist scenarios into being "misogynistic" when they're not. Call it out when it's really happening and let go of the rest. Just because YOU don't like what character is getting attention it does not mean that that plot happening is a direct attack on YOU or your gender.

Enjoy fiction, stand up for those who can't advocate for themselves and support queer people. Cmon. Celebrate a story about love and friendship and connections. It's a long long ass story, there will be PLENTY of wlw content to come.

SUPPORT each other!! We're all we have.

#it really icks me out tbh and like ? i dont want to be lumped in with that kind of wlw fan #HEY! I love laudna and imogen AND orym we do exist 🙃 #critical role #this is me vague blogging at the ask that's in the cr discourse tag #i dont want to tag them that seems aggressive but i also dont want to beat around the bush about it #it's actually harmful to imply that mlm relationships are somehow actively taking away from wlw #support each other fam we're all we have #wild to think that a reunion that's been building for multiple irl years has ppl excited #so hurtful to put people down for that or imply they're misogynistic for being excited when #when imodna became canon CR trended on twitter for like a full day #people care!! jeez!!! it's not that deep!!! you can like both things it'll be okay!!!

also can we just talk about the contrast between when loki is conflicted about their feelings for sylvie, how they smoothly speak on metaphors about love and daggers, they conjure a blanket to share with her, all rizz and no hesitancy. and then with don/mobius it's all adjusting the fit and stumbling over their words and soft reassurances followed quickly by declarations of how important mobius is to them???

#i keep thinking about the 'it's okay it's okay' when mobius was starting to get freaked out #how they helped walk him through the time door #like the way they handle mobius with such care makes me CRAZY #we've seen them both be soft towards each other #but usually it's more so mobius handing out that gentle love so openly and i'm going insane over getting to see how reciprocated that is #i love this season really honing in on how much loki has changed since they first arrived at the TVA #and how it's so evident that change began because of mobius #i'm going fucking bonkers over these two i am deranged #loki series #loki spoilers #lokius #txt: icarus has a bout of madness #marvel

Usopp meets Pedro when they get to Zou after Dressrosa and instantly gets a weird vibe from him when he talks about Sanji and saving him. Maybe it's the way he pronounces Sanji's name or how they just met but for some reason, he seems to be the most concerned of all. And Usopp is not a jealous person. Having Sanji as your boyfriend kind of makes you have to deal with his obsession with girls all the time... But Pedro? A tall, handsome, strong mink is worried sick about his boyfriend and Usopp isn't stupid. He knows something is going on. Pedro also somehow knows Usopp and he figures Sanji has talked about him, but why would he bring that up, anyway? The point here is-- Usopp doesn't like Pedro.

#i talk a lot about jealous sanji and i don't talk enough about jealous usopp #everybody is in love with sanji so how could he not be extremely jealous #okay but imagine the whole drama. like. sanji and pedro actually having feelings for each other and usopp getting jealous #but it's not really bc they like each other. usopp is open to these things. it's more the whole thing about being insecure bc look at pedro #so when pedro dies. sanji is devastated and he goes through a rough time even if they didn't get to know each other THAT much #and usopp has to put aside his jealousy and take care of sanji #and there's so much angst here #one piece #usopp #black leg sanji #pedro one piece #sanuso #pedrosan

also saw someone say laios started the physical altercation as if toshiro did not start strangling him I just feel so. I know there was a pause between but that line had already been crossed

#and laios' scrambling to process it was incredibly painful #he literally is like 'okay toshiro is my friend and cares about me I must have really hurt him I need to understand what I did better' #and then to just be told 'I never liked you' #and Laios' response TO THAT being the very #painful rage of realizing the whole time he was making a fool of himself #you're seeing autistic reactions to it because it is literally an autistic trauma #'you should have just told me' because laios would have TRIED to do better #or at LEAST not have continued the same as he was #also at the end of the fight anyway they have a better understanding of each other #they are literally friends at the end of the series please #idk if that's spoilers but ugh #toshiro nakamoto #laios touden #dungeon meshi

guys what if i told you ive been thinking about dess and actually i think dess/chara might be able to work out in the drkau...like ive been doing some thinking into dess and her reasons and why she does what she does and how she cares about people and im starting to nail down the role i want asriel to play, and. and.

guys i think dess is actually going to be able to change. i think dess figures out how to change but asriel never does....

#chatter #its about like. okay azzy's big thing is normality right. #ive decided hes our monster representative for the prophecy #(which i could make a whole post on but these tags are not the place) #which means dess ISNT which means dess isnt stuck by that #which means like. god this needs so much context i dont have time to give but. #in order for asriel to change he has to come to terms w the fact that a lot of things are his fault #like if he had reacted differently dess maybe stays #or at least doesnt take kris with her #and DESS comes to terms w this. dess is aware that she sorta fucked kris's life #and no shes not their mom but she does love them and care for them #and eventually would start to realize like. i have to be there for them #it wont be perfect but i can TRY even if trying is really really scary #and its this idea of like. what dess-chara-kris-frisk have #is family that could NEVER fit into what society sees as 'normal' #but they have each other. and they want to try. so they make something good #vs asriel chasing normality and pushing everyone away and at the end of it all like #that cant make you happy. all it does is make you Alone. and i dont know if he like #changes. cause hes so deep in he cant admit he was wrong cause then what was any of this for? #anyways let me remind you that noelle is our main character-- #(though tbf since azzy is her brother and has a huge impact on her life its fair he gets a focus too) #I LOVE MY OWN AU <3

i don't think this applies to any mutuals but i've been stewing vaguely over tp fans who think link only fell for midna when he saw her true form. like. we did Not play the same game apparently

#libra.txt #i don't even ship midlink that hard but people who make link sooo shallow #and say he could only have fallen for her when he saw her true form just. ugh i can't stand it #like. they have such an interesting dynamic + relationship #starting out from 'begrudging coworkers' to 'maaaybe friends......?' to 'yeah we vibin' to 'Oh.' #and for awhile i didn't really see midlink as a very romantic dynamic #but then. idk. getting to the desert the first time. and midna shares a secret. the way she presses close to link #and not in a flirty way or trying to get on his nerves but as. 'hey. this is really important to me and i'm actually kind of scared but #i Trust you. i believe in you. we can do this together' #/that's/ when i said 'Oh.' #and now i'm almost done with the game. i've beaten zant and i've headed to the castle #(sidenote: love the freaky spider form midna has with the fused shadows. need to do more with that) #and the way link catches her!!!!! the way they smile at each other!!!!! #they care about each other!!!! they're fond!!!!!! #need to actually finish the game but. maybe i like midlink more than i think. hmm! #i'm just sick of people who only use midna as a reason to give link manpain. or make link shallow etc etc #midna is an interesting character on her own!!!!!!! so is link!!!!!! #they just so happen to work well together too!!!!!!!!!!!! #and don't get me started on midzelink okay

so i came to the conclusion that

#too many twins to count #i really think i deserve some kind of degree on this matter #disclaimer: 2winmez are also cute but i meant it more as “cute - soft - happy” yk. so that category doesn't really apply lol #also yes there IS a difference between angst and “a fucking battlefield” believe me. you don't wanna meet the nijo twins #the nanase twins went through every stage but i know they care deeply about each other okay #only riku had that slight “i hate tenn-nii” phase but it's alright now. i guess #paralive #enstars #argopro #marginal4 #i7

Random limlife Scott rant, GO!

I got this ask and decided that I’d give it my best shot but got so mad on my skim through some of the moments I remembered that I gave up.

#Okay im half joking #I got angry enough for me to decide that writing a post without careful consideration would probably lead to an inaccurate little ramble #I need to like. actually sit down and watch limlife and do a full overall analysis #because the context for how scott acts each season is so important. a skim just wont do #The reason I dont have notes on him to share with the class already is because when it was coming out I was pretending that— #Scott grew as a person after 3l and I wanted to believe that so badly I started making stuff up about memory erasure and limlife being— #dubiously real so that I could look the other way when scott started being weird about jimmy again #I was like yeah they barely remember it thats why scotts being uncomfortably weird about jimmy this season #not because scott doesnt think about jimmy like a person and just wants to hear him say words that make him feel better about his— #rough relationship history #not because the idea of jimmy gaining independence from him makes him feel insecure or anything #sighs. sorry im just saying things. again its been a while since ive watched it so I need to actually. Yknow. Watch it before making posts #Its just crazy how he treats it like proving a point more than actually caring #“I mightve given you the 30 minutes last week if youd said love you” he wouldnt have. he was already leaving when he said it #he’s literally just trying to get him to feel bad about not saying it #pretty sure he kills jimmy in the same episode he lets jimmy kill him. Like. He doesnt really care like that #He just likes to pretend that he does. He is going through the motions of caring #Its like he needs to believe jimmy still needs him. in like a possessive way. Its really weird man #I will say though since I see this a lot: I dont think him singling out tango in the 30 seconds scene was intentional #because if im being honest. I dont think he sees the ranchers as anything serious #He assumes tango was just putting up with jimmy bc he had to. He doesnt think tango actually cares about jimmy #in his mind no one actually cares about jimmy. because if scott struggled to care about jimmy and Scott is known for being an amazing ally #that must mean everyone else struggles to care about jimmy. If that makes sense #rant over I think. tldr limlife scott analysis postponed until I get my life together enough to be able to sit down and watch forthree hour #bree barks so fucking loud #asks

[steelycunt]

ridi im sorry i need to rant and i think youll get it 😭 like not to be a bitch but this fandom kinda going off the rails and annoying the shit out of me https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRbYASpf/ everybody in the comments unironically loving it,,, i mean wtvr ship who you want but its kinda getting delusional like ppl are just operating on thin air and pretty fancasts atp and i do Not understand or emotionally connect with any of it. at least w wolfstar theres so much material and foundation to explore but what is all the rest of this?? just hot celebrity fancasts and crack. to be fair part of me respects taking a terfs canon material and making everybody gay but the way it seems to be so oversaturating fics and the fandom that characters dont even feel like their original selves .. atp its all just surface level OCs

hello! yes! i'll be honest talking about things like this always make me a little nervous, and i feel obligated to preface anything i say with a disclaimer that none of it really matters, nothing i say matters, and you should do what you like, because--who cares. i am not an authority on--anything, frankly. my opinion holds no more weight than the next guy's, and all i'm doing here is giving it, so. essentially what im saying is--people are perfectly entitled to disagree with me, but people are not entitled to be mean to me about it xx

having said that. it is my personal opinion that s x barty is one of the worst fucking things i have ever heard lol. who even is barty who is that guy. why would s be interested in him at all. i do not understand it it does not make sense to me. from where are we sourcing the character traits and personality that we are giving barty that would ever endear sirius to him, because it objectively cannot be canon.

overall i do not get the new interest in barty + evan + pandora (+ regulus, but we won't go there)...at all, other than guessing that people were bored with the marauders and wanted a new version of them (and new celebrities to fancast) while simultaneously changing next to nothing about them other than superimposing them onto the first slytherin side characters they could rustle up. i expect ive become a bit of a broken record in regards to my dislike of the popular meow-meow-ification + complete absolution of regulus as a character in order to make him a loveable oc (just as i think erasing all the negative traits that r/s have in order to make them more likeable is just as boring), and all of that applies to those other guys as well (with the slight difference that they are, somehow, even less interesting and significant than regulus in canon), so i won't get into that too much. but i think what you say about having no emotional connection to any of it is exactly right lol--it is a sort of shift? i guess? in the fandom that is simply of no interest to me. they are characters that i just have no emotional investment in and admittedly struggle a little to understand why other people do. i am emotionally invested in, like, five characters overall (and even out of those--there's only two i'm really here for innit xx) and i personally cannot extend that investment to a creepy little side character who is mentioned maybe twice in the entire series.

and that is okay! i do not need to understand it. i don't want to say it annoys me because honestly--i don't go there, its nothing to do with me. if i dont like it i just wont interact with it, and the fact that it doesn't interest me has no bearing on what other people are into or want to do, and i couldn't give less of a shit what people do with the canon material, which is largely garbage anyway. take the bits you want from it, play around with those and ignore the rest. in that respect we are all doing exactly the same thing. but yeah i think s x barty is genuinely awful lol. hate it. very terrible. he's already got a loser werewolf boyfriend and he loves him so so much. leave him alone.

#i know most people are reasonable and thus it is perhaps overly cautious of me to insist on shrouding my unpopular #opinions in like. layer upon layer of placatory disclaimers but. well im a rather anxious guy i can't help it xx but im going to use these #tags to have a bit more of a consequence-less hater hour so. if you like regulus or barty or any of that lot i suggest you look away now #because i am about to express opinions about them that you probably wouldnt agree with + wouldnt enjoy reading!! #like full warning what im about to do is NOT any sort of analysis or defence of my opinion i will just be hating on them. is that clear. #okay. having said that. hater hour. barty and evan and honestly regulus were all cunts? like they were terrible people why do we care #about them now. regulus interests me solely as a piece of context for sirius' character. i could not give less of a shit about him as a #person in his own right. which leads me to my next hater moment: why oh why oh WHY on earth would canon james potter be interested #in canon regulus black. it makes sense in like a muggle au where they are virtually completely different characters but canon? #why would he be attracted to him. there is nothing. there is no chemistry i am ASLEEP and so is james. he would not give that #guy a second look. like it just baffles me it truly does. i feel like you have to bend over backwards to create a situation in which #james potter would ever show an interest in regulus. and i know jegulus is a fucking force to be reckoned with nowadays but god i just #do not like that ship. also i think the fact that barty and pandora and evan are essentially just oc characters who have been coloured #in by general fanon consensus shows in that what they have become is just. not interesting or complex or well fleshed out lol. like #idk i feel like they are just. very shallow. deliberately. so they are easy to like and easy to ship because that is what theyre there for. #god it feels so good to say all this. i will never be a hater again (<- lying) but i needed to be able to just. say this just once xx #also if you needed any more indication what barty and evan and regulus are here to do you just have to look at their #super-hot super-conventionally attractive celebrity model fancasts. like it all adds up its like but what if these death eaters were #not actually evil :-( what if they were really sweet and also? so so hot. like they were all so hot and actually really good #and none of them meant to be evil they didnt want to be :-( they were just hot good guys all in love with each other and the evil stuff #they did wasnt their fault :-( like that has to be. the most boring thing you couldve possibly done with these blank slates. surely. #anyway. im done now but i enjoyed hater hour immensely this was so fucking good for my soul xx thanks and goodnight xx #anon #telegram #scream hang on sorry. just looked at the comments of that tiktok where people are saying they were prison besties. girl. girl. #girl they were in prison for very different reasons baby. baby you know that right. baby look at me. look at me

[skyward-floored]

No that is sooo dumb. Threatening to break someone’s kneecaps is a very obvious joke thing that everyone on the internet says 💀💀💀 and it was against incest like??? That person needs to toughen up or leave the internet otherwise they’ll have a rough time 😩

Yeah I just. I don’t even know man. Just. Look. Hero’s shade and tp Link ARE related whether you like it or not?? Hero’s shade’s dialogue practically says it straight-up. And for Pete’s sake it was a joke!!! A JOKE!!!!

I cut out the angry rant I had here because I’m not in the mood to incur anyone’s wrath but gosh. I am so tired.

#I’m not on desktop so I can’t change it but don’t reblog this please I don’t want rabid l/nkshippers on my doorstep #answers from the floor #smiles my beloved #about hero’s shade and tp Link though. they really are related. #HS says all sorts of stuff about *our bloodline* and calls Link ‘my child’ and you can ignore all that I GUESS but its still... um. #shipping characters who treat each other like that is weird okay I’m not going to police you if you do it but it really does feel incesty #whatever. if you care so much go write a fic with them kissing and don’t bother me. geez.
