throws up my hands in mock resignation but also a hint of frustration Okay Valentino is a cool villain I guess

He's like. Genuinely unsettling. Wish the show struck a better balance with his character sometimes (like sometimes when he's onscreen I have to skip over because I feel queasy and sometimes he's so unsubtle he feels more like a prop than a guy who's going to be a Huge Deal in s2)

#why yes I have been reading some phenomenal fanfiction lately #a lesser me would be agonising over my inability to ever come close to matching the #masterfully characterised works of these talented WORD WEAVERS #but envy is a spoilt housepest and we must spend less time unleashing it upon new targets #instead let's talk about how these fics discovered its possible?? #to write Val as not only a 3dimensional character but a deeply horrifying person to WITNESS #to depict how he thinks and what he wants and what he contributes to the people around him #while acknowledging that his actions are supremely messed up #also without dumbing whatever the fuck is wrong with him down to just 'can't do math and needs a sippycup' #those jokes are funny but he's also a dealmaker #he doesn't need to be studied under a microscope! he needs to be gawked at in abject horror! Oh the Potential! #he needs to tell us more about how depraved hell can be by linking us to a portion of the culture full of the dead who cannot die! #anyways. rant over. uh I think I like valentino now? in the same way I like the old man villain from hunchback of notre dame. #just. (gestures) what is this dude. ew. oh my god #my post #personal stuff #hazbin hotel #hazbin hotel valentino #is this anything #again I am entrenching on dangerous territory of 'expectations for this media I consume' #he really doesn't need to be written all shakespearean-like #too attached mayhaps #delete later #honestly worried that if the show does reveal his backstory or whatever it'll try to paint him in a sympathetic light #and then the online arguments will be a headache for a month #villain with tragic backstory ≠ sympathetic villain

Some fantasy traveler inventory details (like what they would carry in their bags), based on two of the recent costumes I did.. love finding random little scraps and items and putting them together lol

#it's obvious who's is who's since they match their outfits HOWEVER.. consider if they were switched lol #evil villain looking man carrying around pressed flowers in a cutesy lacy pouch #fantasy costume #what's in my bag #actualyl that would have been funny to make a video. I should make a video #I'm sure someone else has already done this #but like.. lifestyle vlogger type content however I'm dressed in fully costume as some weird elf or something #pulling things out of my bag and showing them to the camera and talking about how they're useful for whatever #but it's all fantasy scenarios and talking like it's very common #'and of course. i know it's a bit cliche #EVERY traveler has one of these. but you know. theyre just useful! thats why everyone has one!' *pulls out a completely unrecognizable item #thats like some weird fantasy world prop and doesn't even explain it because In-world it's normal and wouldnt need to be talked about* #'room tour' video and it's just like 'yeah I sleep on this mat under a bunch of trees uh.. over here by these rocks. at least right now. I #kind of wander around a bit. so' #Like a clothing haul but it's a potions shop haul or something and they ramble about some obscure drama in the potions community and how the #y hard to barter and steal and entire flock of sheep or something just to get one of them. etc. etc. #I could do ones for different characters too like. multiple people from different walks of life showing what they carry around with them. #just like this but more interview sort of vlog format instead of photos #This is where not having much money and not having my own house with land becomes an issue though #I think it would take you out of the illusion if the background was always the same. I can make small sets because there's one blank wall in #a room that it's easy to move all the stuff away from in front of and clear a spot and like hang up fabrics or whatever but still.. hmms #So one of those 'fun idea but dubious about handling the execution' things. also One Of Those Things where without looking it up you're 100% #sure it's already been done and you don't want to look weird since it's vaguely niche. Like if 100 people have done something it's fine but #if only like 3 other people have then you look weird maybe ghhjbj.. or only one other person gods forbid. looks even weirder potentially #Or do people not care about ''copying'' anymore?? idk. I'm not updated with the internet's changing culture. I just have a fear of accidenta #lly doing something like that and then people getting mad even though it's really just that I competely had no idea it had been done because #again.. I live under a rock and am unaware of everything lol. ANYWAY. also would require my face being on video which I don't like. Though I #would be in costume so that helps. I think to be fully comfortable I'd need light modifications to make my face look different. which isn't #hard but is more effort when it has to be translatable in multiple angles. ANYWAY. ghjbhj... Now I think it would be funny actually. maybe #one day. I haven't made any videos (aside from on the gameplay/sims channel) in a long long time actually. hmm'st

Scale of one to ten, how mad do you think Kohga is when, after he describes his/the Clan’s long, difficult work to figure out how to use Zonai tech, to collect charges, and to reconstruct a mighty ancient construct to gift to Lord Ganon, and after he debuts said amazing piece of engineering (which he’s even dressed up to show it’s special and his)*…

Link can just stand back and let his own mech, that he built in like two days tops and that is powered by a sage who barely knows him and is following him more or less blindly because he’s the Princess’s Chosen Hero…

Bop his creation repeatedly with a spiky metal ball (his own signature weapon)?

Because I think the answer is over 9000.

This is the mask of a man having a breakdown.

#yiga clan #legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom #master kohga #I love to death how he gave his construct a huge collar and little sleevies and put his insignia on it #he worked so hard on that thing and didn’t have a magic hand or a Zonai ghost or even the exposition from the stewards/mining constructs #and then link gets *handed everything once again* #((myyyy own screenshots)) #((*maaan that’s not a gift whatever you say. you made that for yourself didn’t you? yeaaah yeah you did.)) #((just goes to show about that whole ‘yeah I guess we serve Ganon but have you seen master kohga???’ thing the yiga got going on)) #((just picturing kohga taking that thing to ganon expecting to be showered with praise and to get to keep using it)) #((meanwhile Ganondorf (probably) doesn't even know who he is whoops)) #another lil detail: the construct's red shield matches the red-pink-orange magic the yiga/maz koshia use. #but kohga's own personal shields he's used in each fight and in botw and aoc are the blue shared by sheikah tech and impa AND maz koshia #nice blend of the two varieties of ancient sheikah magic on display here! (alongside the zonai-style energy powering the thing) #((iirc seized construct's shield/other magic/tech is a different red color--that's ganondorf's color))

so the canon reason why michael crew stopped being pursued by the spiral was because he allinged himself to the vast but i personally want to believe that was just a conicidence and the real reason is michael shelly got sacrificed it at the exact time he found the ex altiora and the spiral just really didn't want to deal with another one of them

#mike crew #micheal distortion #the spiral #pretty sure the timeline doesn't match up but whatever #it's canon in my heart #the magnus archives #tma #tma shitpost

ok hear me out you know how pelicans sometimes symbolize jesus because medieval guys thought pelicans would stab their chests with their beaks so the chicks could eat and be sustained by their blood. so pelicans are like self sacrificial. and jesus sacrificed himself for man. what if vash's fursona is a pelican.

#i thought of this when i was in church staring at the pelican drawing we have on the ceiling #honestly there are probably better characters for this but WHATEVER #vash the stampede #trigun #trigun maximum #STOP choosing fursonas based on what looks cool. start choosing them based on christ parallels #.lieii #i realize that some people may not be constantly thinking about vash jesus parallels so this post doesn't make sense #i made a post about jesus vash that's somewhere on my blog feel free to find out if you would like more vash christ parallels #not the most 1:1 but pretty good match. if you need salvation for mankind vash will do in a pinch

hmm. thinking about how when the party goes into Aubrey's bedroom on One Day Left and she finally apologizes, Kel's immediate reaction is to apologize to her in return. and also thinking about how Aubrey always targets Kel in physical combat but also in her verbal accusations (Aubrey's dialogue upon winning in the church fight is "serves you right, Kel" and she doesn't seem nearly as mad at Sunny despite him actually slashing her with a knife). i know the common fandom perception is that Kel and Aubrey simply drifted apart after Mari died, but... i think it's very likely that something actively bad happened between them, but neither one of them wants to bring it up again. and i definitely feel like Kel secretly blamed himself for Aubrey's downward spiral.

#this is all headcanon ofc but my personal theory is #that after mari was buried aubrey would visit her grave ever day and try to get kel to come to #and eventually kel was like ''are you gonna do anything besides sit by her grave all day? when are you gonna move on and live your life?'' #and aubrey (justifiably) took that REALLY badly and then there was a screaming match #i think kel is generally well intentioned and he always wants people to look on the bright side of life #but he doesn't yet realize that it's not appropriate to force positivity on people all the time #idk. he's always forcing himself to fake happiness so i feel like he could force it upon others too #TLDR what if kel and aubrey had a fight like kel and hero except things didn't get better afterwards. are you crying yet #omori #aubrey omori #kel omori #omori headcanons #volt.txt #kelbrey #not romantic ofc but i know kelbrey nation will eat up this angst so. take it #oops there are hella spelling errors in these tags. whatever.

If House of Anubis had taken place like ~5 years later than it actually did I just KNOW that Joy and Amber would've been SUPER into K-pop and they would've argued viciously about who they stan and bias all the time, possibly descending the house into an all-out war at some point

#come on you know they would've loved k-pop #and they would've feuded and made the house a battlefield in the pre-sibuna days #alfie and fabian and mara start to fear for their lives at house meals #fabian gets overwhelmed and scared #they each keep trying to pull him to their side #at first alfie just enthusiastically goes along with whatever amber says #but then he eventually gets into it and starts forming his own opinions #mara enjoys the music but cannot bring herself into the drama #like fabian she doesn't like that it's starting a bunch of fights in the house #patricia and mick stay the hell out of it #patricia bc she thinks it's stupid and mick bc he's clueless and simply doesn't care #jerome is so fucking confused about all these details and lingo and drama he doesn't understand #and he doesn't much like the music either #and while he thinks it's dumb his confusion eventually clears enough for him to be able to use it to his advantage #to manipulate joy and amber with frightening ease #'hey amber i heard joy say that she stans [insert kpop member here]' #*cue outrage and a loud yelling match for the next few hours* #house of anubis #amber millington #joy mercer

I've reached season 5 on my CSI rewatch and I'm a few episodes past "Swap Meet", where a woman is murdered after attending a swing party with other couples from the neighbourhood. Near the end of the episode there's a moment that made me jump from my seat:

(Grissom walks up to Sara and takes the seat next to her. He's holding two cups. He hands her a cup of tea.)

[INT. POLICE DEPARTMENT - BRASS' OFFICE]

Erin Brady: Everybody fantasizes about other people. (She glances at Grissom.)

Even you, Mr. Grissom. A neighbor, a friend ... girl at the office.

[INT. POLICE DEPARTMENT - HALLWAY]

(The door opens. Paul Brady walks out of the hallway. Erin Brady walks out into the hallway. Sara is sitting in the hallway chair watching them. She watches as they meet and kiss.)

(Grissom walks up to Sara and takes the seat next to her. He's holding two culps. He hands her a cup of tea.)

LIKE!!!!!!!

Right after Erin ends her sentence with 'girl at the office', the first time Sara and Grissom meet again, he brings her tea. This might be an innocent interaction but to me it seemed like a nod to this relationship they have where both are into each other, know about the other's feelings, but can't/won't do anything about it (although Sara has kind of given Grissom an ultimatum). I don't know if it was intentional - I'm guessing it is, because I picked it up immediately. I might or might not have squealed in delight.

#csi #gsr #i'm very Normal about them btw i don't think about them 50 times per day or anything #need to talk more about these two here #because im obsessed about them in a Normal way #sara is like. my dream wife. i totally get grissom being in love with her for years and barely holding it together #i would not though #i'm 1000% sure she's bi. but the writers have been cowards so far #also she and i dress THE SAME. yes i love 2000s clothes so what #i could talk about her forever she's everything to me #and grissom. oh grissom. i also get why she's been in love with him forever #i mean what the FUCK went down in san francisco did they hook up and sex was so good it scared them #and now they have to live with that tension and they're scared of crossing that line #nah i'm guessing with these two they just REALLY clicked. like. they were an instant match and they knew it #but grissom didnt want to lose focus on work or whatever and they lived in separate states you know #but oh my god i totally get sara. grissom is such a silver fox. he's like one of the hottest old men i've ever seen in my life #you know what i 100% get tumblr sexualizing old men it's completely valid i'm in this now too #he has this LOOK. whenever he's angry at a suspect. and he looks angrily at them. i'm chewing on my keyboard just remembering it #and his smirks #AND THE WAY HE LOOKS AT SARA #im losing my mind #i love all of gil grissom but seasons 4-5 jesus fucking christ #ok enough with the sexualizing i love him as a character SO MUCH. he's absolutely fantastic #one of the things i love the most about him is that he doesn't judge people. whenever the team is confused about someone #or this persons' lifestyle #he's always trying to understand them and not judge them #like a true scientist he wants to understand the nature of things and people #and he's such a sweetheart i love him so much #like there are so many things i love about him i can't fit them all in the tags. same for sara #they're a perfect match for me

colin should 'suffer' for penelope

aka: 5 short reasons why wanting colin to 'suffer' or 'grovel' or whatever other bullshit this fandom keeps pulling is stupid and makes no sense and should have been buried ages ago, how is this still a thing?

1: it sets a terrible and unhealthy dynamic between an endgame couple

especially considering Polin's motif is that of a mirror, if Colin is expected to grovel or suffer for Penelope's affection and forgiveness, it only stands to reason that Penelope then, too, would have to reciprocate. how Penelope treats Colin's ills is setting the precedent for how he's expected to handle her own against him, of which there are many. giving him the cold shoulder, holding what he said over his head and rubbing it in his face, potentially not even explaining why she's upset at him: these are not signs of a mature woman ready for a marriage to ANYONE

2: Colin's slights against Penelope are considerably less harmful than Penelope's against Colin's and it makes no narrative sense for her to be on her high horse about it

'he ruined her prospects' 'he talked about her behind her back' 'he laughed at her' (we don't even know if that one's true, frankly speaking)

but Penelope did the exact same to him and she did so first. Please remember that Penelope is the reason Colin and Marina broke up, and it was her express goal the entire time. Penelope humiliated Colin and Marina both by exposing them publicly (not to mention rubbed the salt into the wound for days afterward). Penelope didn't even think about Colin's feelings because she tried to confess her crush on him immediately after his engagement went poof. Penelope holding Colin accountable for what he said without herself recognizing the ways in which she's hurt him, too, makes her out to be a hella hypocrite

3: it's weirdly catholic on main?

love isn't about suffering points or penance or guilt and i'm tired of Christianity pervading every damn thing. sorry not sorry, some of us want an actually fulfilling love story

4: y'all are just mad Colin didn't love Penelope back from jump and it's a revenge fantasy

which, fine, that's what fanfic is for, but it's OOC, y'all are aware of that, right? because if he DID want her from the start, we all know that it wouldn't be Polin? why are you shipping a friends to lovers ship if you INSIST that the friends to lovers dynamic is less than? guess what? unreciprocated love is kind of part of the deal. you don't hold a grudge against your friend for not loving you back immediately. Colin shows he cares about Penelope in SO MANY WAYS that somehow are completely invalidated because it isn't meant to be romantic? imma say it: fuck you if you think that way. friendships are important and beautiful and deep and fulfilling with or without romance. Colin sticking his neck out for Penelope to help her family from Jack's scheme? an act of love. Colin sending Penelope letters after her father passed? act of love. Colin telling Penelope she's 'really very good' and holding her hand in appreciation of her coming to talk to him? act of love. if you think those acts of love mean nothing just because he isn't fucking her seven ways to sunday, maybe analyze your own viewpoint of relationships and ship Pen w/ some random stranger who makes heart eyes at her tits from jump

5: it makes Penelope an asshole to her own long term partner

dude, if a friend of mine insisted I crawl on hands and knees to determine whether they want me back in their lives, i don't want to be around that person? so many of these narratives make Penelope a straight up terrible person. if you want your partner to suffer? you probably don't actually like them very much, but Polin is narratively MEANT to be the couple that likes AND loves one another. be real, if your friend ghosted you for months, gave you the cold shoulder when you tried to talk again, treated you like shit (you can't argue that him 'suffering' isn't treating him like shit in some way shape or form) as you tried to apologize, and then you find out that she was the reason you and your ex broke up and she wrote straight up nasty things about your family for YEARS, you would want absolutely nothing to do with that friend. why should Colin be expected to be any different? do these two not deserve a lovely love story built on love and affection and trust and honesty? a healthy happy relationship in which they see one another and appreciate one another for all they are? no? so why do you ship them?

+1: it's oversaturated in this fandom

polin is a fantastic ship. how is THIS their main trope?

find a new fucking idea, PLEASE

#polin #penelope featherington #colin bridgerton #dude i have so many more #it's OOC for both of them #it strips colin of his character (and let's be real this fandom has proven they don't give a shit about him anyway) #it continues to open the door for weird crack and sideships this fandom is strangely obsessed with #why is it weird that when i say i ship Polin i mean i ship POLIN #like. . .exclusively. as my otp. i don't give a SHIT about your dumb pen/oc or whatever bullshit crackship y'all pulled out your arses #it's BORING #there are at least five other people ahead of colin who should be apologizing for their actions to their love interest #like. . .you do realize one them literally almost married his wife's sister yes???? #what exactly does colin have to 'grovel' for? #'oh the groveling gentleman is a popular trope and colin and penelope are a good match for it' #when anthony is RIGHT THERE???? #on a meta level it's been noticed for ages that polin doesn't have any or very little love for Colin #there are other ships that step to BAT for their couples and we're here constantly shitting on half our OTP #you don't have to put down one half of your ship to make the other half desirable #they literally live a love story #OBVIOUSLY he's gonna make her feel desirable #without having to be treated poorly whilst doing so #could i just shut up about this dumb trope? maybe so #but i am first and foremost: a hater

starter for: anyone! ( CLOSED ) location: birdsong park

With everything going on in her personal life, Val desperately needed a nice yoga session. And Birdsong Park was one of her favorite spots to do so if she wasn't at the rec center. The connection to nature was always such a huge draw for her. So, armed with her tripod and yoga mat, prepared to get some content shot today, Val scoped out the park for the best spot. She wanted to make sure she was out of people's way.

Having picked out the perfect grassy area, she made her way over, first setting up her tripod and phone before moving a few feet away and setting up her yoga mat and a few other props. She always liked to bring a few things with her to set the tone for her video. With her back turned towards the tripod, she hadn't heard anyone approaching, too many other noises in the park had commandeered her attention. So when she finally turned around to face the tripod and her camera, she winced just a little bit when she noticed someone standing right in the way of her camera. This was always the fun part of shooting content in public. Though Val had learned a long time ago it was easier to just be flexible. "Sorry, didn't mean to get in your way!" she called as she moved towards her tripod, preparing to move it so she'd film the same spot but from a different angle.

#the gif obviously doesn't really match the scenario at all buttttt she's wearing a yoga outfit soooooo it works! lol #feel free to assume connections! #the person could have not even realized she was there! #whatever works!

Did a Kim/KimChay re-watch and I can confidently say that 90% of the current characterization (since the start of 2023) is pure fanon, blatant misinterpretation, and wishful thinking

Don't go claiming around that it's canon when it's just something you WISH was canon

#'Kim is shy and Chay is confident and assertive with him' LITERALLY WHERE? #give me one example that isn't an opinion of some other blog or something taken out of context #one canon SCENE where that is true #the best you can say is Chay knows his worth and is rightfully pissed at Kim but that's not the same thing #Kim's desperate messages and need to contact Chay is born out guilt and concern not whatever the fuck you've twisted it into #god i hate KimChay fans so much #all of you #the fucking 'Kim Theerapanyakul is so whipped' makes me visceral reactions now #y'all all just Chay fans but can't even do that right as none of your characterization matches Chay's actual personality #anyway rant over #Kim #KimChay #Kinnporsche #Kinnporsche the series #Kim Theerapanyakul #porchay kittisawasd #Chay is not assertive with Kim and Kim doesn't listen to him because he's naturally subservient #he listens because Chay is PERSISTENT AND STUBBORN (affectionate) and won't stop until Kim hears him out
