[seaquestions]

on tuesdays and thursdays, you can find him at the dragon's den.

#pokemon #rival silver #gym leader clair #dragonair #niksartstuffs #ah.. my decade-old headcanon.... that in the postgame silver is unofficially adopted by the dragon clan that lance & clair are part of. #he's always either at the den or the plateau and i feel like he tries to think of it all as just training but they are taking care of him. #lance and clair take turns getting bullied by a 12-year-old through the week.

Not me thinking the hole in the dragon’s stomach looked like pussy yesterday only to realize today that oh yeah that might have been the point

Falin is literally being reborn

10/10 framing I love this series so much and TRIGGER is killing it on the visuals

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #falin #episode 12 #holy shit it hit me like a freight train just now #incredible #spoilers but uh #reborn #reshaped #from the womb of the dungeon itself she changes #from human to something else entirely #anime only it will make a whole lot more sense after next week’s episode promise

has... has no one addressed the parts in the books where its implied that Lockwood's, like, had girls around before? I could never tell if Flo, Kipps, and George were just screwing with him to embarrass him in front of Lucy or what. 'cause it does contribute to Lucy's jealousy towards Holly later. And, because it's Lucy's POV and Lockwood's a liar about his feelings, it's hard to tell if he's just being Polite Charming Anthony Lockwood or not--when in reality, he's just being a Vain Teenage Boy about the whole situation.

but did this ill-fitting-suit-wearing sleep-deprived work-obsessed prima donna actually have the wherewithal, time, and emotional intelligence to even Be Interested in anyone before he got to know Lucy? doubtful

i was thinking more about characters Performing Gender, but not necessarily Transgressing Gender. I wound up focusing on Ned and Sansa bc I feel like I understand them the most but-

Sansa as a hostage is imo the most obvious (bc it’s so well done) moment of someone clearly Performing Gender but not being transgressive in that performance. Which isn’t to say it’s not a complicated performance; it’s a fine line Sansa walks between weaponizing her gender to protect herself without seeming too fake. She’s trying to placate the Lannisters by playing the perfect, dedicated, air headed betrothed because it’s the only defense she has - if she outwardly rebels, she will be punished in a likely violent and/or sexual way (which isn’t even conjecture - when she says “or maybe he’ll give me yours” Joffrey has her struck with an armored hand). She’s not quite successful in being convincing but that’s because it’s a rather extreme situation; despite no one believing her, she does make herself seem meek and stupid enough that no one suspects she’s plotting to escape with Dontos until she’s well away from KL. The fact that she even has Dontos to confide in is because of Sansa’s relationship with gender! When she saves him, she covers her rebellious slip by playing up Joffrey’s intelligence & his role as King; she reaches for “tools” of her gender AND of ~proper manhood~ to save a life and herself from another beating. Her retreats into the godswood and silence are very much Sansa attempting to recharge from these draining interactions, the same way a knight would need to stop and eat and rest after a fight. She is fighting, constantly, by forcing herself to stay within the narrow confines of a specific type of gender performance as a way of shielding herself from harm.

Ned yelling at Cat is another big one, and I’ve seen the scene referred to as Ned using his patriarchal power to scare Cat, which is a great description. It feels like a Performance because Ned is putting on this terrifying Lord Stark mask in an attempt to get Catelyn to stop asking about Jon (and Lyanna). This is not how he usually acts with those he loves! When Ned is with His People, he is welcoming of questions, curiosity, emotion, even transgressive thought (to a point! the idea that Ned is a feminist because he lets Arya learn to fight is Not accurate but you can’t deny he allows significantly more flexibility wrt gender expression than most of the fathers we meet in this series. the bar is in hell tho). Yet when Cat asks him about Jon’s mother, Ned scares her so well she stops asking & still remembers the moment bitterly over a decade later. And if that snippet we see through Bran’s eyes of Ned praying that Cat will forgive him does come after she asks (like it’s suspected), it’s clear not only that this is a performance he’s putting on & weaponizing against Cat, it’s one he does not like using as a weapon against someone he is close to. After using the power his gender gives him to cause harm, he retreats to the godswood and silence to pray and rest, much like Sansa. A spiritual cleanse, the way a soldier may pray after battle, to reset and reconnect Being A Proper Man to Being A Kind Man.

I think there’s something interesting in that two of the characters most widely defined by how well they adhere to Westerosi gender norms both dislike feeling like they had to weaponize their gender. They are exhausted by the performance, because it’s a performance. This isn’t Sansa getting excited over tourneys, or Ned teaching his sons to fight; it’s toxic masculinity, it’s structural misogyny. It’s something they’re good at, excel at, and connected to something they enjoy but when it’s paired with violence, whether done by Ned or done to Sansa, it crosses over in their minds from an innate part of themselves (The Gender) to a performance necessary due to survival (The Gender Role). And that after these performances, both retreat to nature & god as a way of resting and cleansing from the experience.

#valyrianscrolls #ned stark #sansa stark #getting on my soap box #there’s something here too about romanticism. like shelley and coleridge and whitman. the need to return to nature to undo society’s harm. #especially with the way various romance movements and romantic tropes are played with by their characters. #i can’t even remember who said it which just shows u how shitty an english major i am aksjd but about how. #like society is necessary but just as necessary is the ability to escape into nature. i *think* it was coleridge i’m probably wrong. #the gender war makes corpses of us all #gender politics in asoiaf #obviously you can point to several moments for both of them. sansa calling petyr father. ned’s relationship with theon. wherein they both #are clearly performing something for an audience. #there’s like 12 other branches of this in my head. jaime’s romanticism. being knighted bloody & the sacrilegious nature of the sept sex. #and his inability to escape his gender performance the way ned & sansa do. ned being willing to cry in front of others but robb only ever #crying in the dark with his baby brother after he loses ned. cat’s tower stuff & finding solace in sewing. #i’m gonna try to write up something about loras & renly here too. tomorrow. #also i wrote this at the train station after work so if there’s errors or it makes no sense just pretend u never saw it skskdj

So I'm not sure if anyone else had this assumption, though I think the MV frames it this way and this it what I had believed for a while- the assumption that Mikoto had been cornered in some way by John at the end of Double(This is, of course, assuming the 'green' colored one is Mikoto and the 'pink' colored one is John). Like here, this is what we see:

Yeah. He is very much againist that train car door. But that's not at the end of the train- that's the door that leads outside. And if we see here with John- who tries VERY HARD TO HIDE THIS FACT:

I cut out his chest sorry about that. Don't want to get censored.

But he's also againist a train car door. For quick reference, as even if it isn't neccesarily Here the train cars seem mostly identical outside of the blood-

-Yeah.

Anyways, let's check that running scene again!

The train is flipped- they're running towards one another, not one or both away from the other.

...Okay. But why. Maybe you already knew that Mikoto wasn't 'cornered' or anything.

Well, if they had turned to face each other, in about the middle of the train car where the doors are... So if they're meeting in the FUCKING MIDDLE-

#milgram #mikoto kayano #john milgram #💛 #☠️ #YOU'D THINK THEY'RE MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS WITH HOW MUCH I TALK ABOUT THEM #THEY'RE NOT. OUT OF MY FUCKING HEAD YOU FUCKING TWINKS SAVE SOME ROOM FOR EVERYONE ELSE #ALSO I NEED TO FIND THE POST.

You guys... please... think out loud with me... we can't keep saying the Serpentine War was 40 years ago... as of the time of season 7, yeah, it was 40 years ago, but literally one season later it was already 41 years. T

hen in Crystalized, Jay claims Harumi must have been evading them for years, so going solely by the lowest possible plural amount, that was still 2 years, one year between Seabound and Crystalized, and one year some time between Hunted and Seabound, so it would've been at LEAST 43 years!

THEN there's the added bonus of let's say one year between Crystalized and the Merge, so 44 years!!! Then, if there's 5 years between the Merge and DRs1, that means it's been 49 years !!!! THEN if DRs2 is one year AFTER the s1 premiere it has been 50 years since the Serpentine War !!!!!!!! (this is not a serious issue to me I simply don't think saying it was 40 years ago makes sense anymore)

#ninjago #ninjago dragons rising #raine's rambles #i think then this could also kinda explain shit like as of s12 there were videogames 30 years ago... #like cmon gamers !!! #i think realistically a 12 year gap would make sense there !!!! #as for the subway train shit yea no clue lol. #raine's shitposting #bc this isnt rlly my most srs post .

fake psychic Tim but its just. its just psych. Jason dies and batman goes off the deep end so Tim (instead of becoming robin) starts going ham on the 'tips to the police' bc if the police can deal with the smaller crimes then Tim doesn't have to worry about batman killing a petty thief.

Except he's running himself into the ground and he starts getting sloppy bc he's giving the local police info, and bludhaven info (bc dick) AND probably giving Nightwing info when he can and someone catches him or he leaves a paper trail and then Officer Dick Grayson apprehends him and takes him in for questioning and Tim is like "you can't talk to me without my parents or a lawyer present, I'm a minor. And my parents are in Guatemala, so you better call my lawyer."

and Dick is like "kid you're not in trouble i just need to know who's giving you this information." Because there is NO WAY this kid isn't working with someone. Someone who is using a child to drop off information, which while noble to help the police, is putting this child in danger and tim is like, pretty offended actually. That it's being implied that he COULDN'T do this himself.

So he's like "im not working for anyone."

and Dick is like "you have to be getting the info from somewhere. I just wanna help."

and Tim is like AUGH ADULTS "I just- i figured it out on my own" and its CLEAR that Dick doesn't believe him which is, first off, super insulting, never meet your heroes, and second he shouldn't be talking anyway or admit that he goes out at night or Dick will do something stupid like try to make him stop. So he's like (rolling eyes) "I'm psychic. Are you happy? Can I have my phone call now?"

#batman #tim drake #Cue Dick ALMOST not buying it but he's like 'okay kid' #if you're psychic prove it. #And Tim is like oh he thought i was serious??? Uh #“you're favorite animal is a bat.“ And Dick looks at him confused but then sorta pales a little and is like ”... what.” #and tim is like “and you really like nighttime... walks.” #And Dick like turns off the recording and is like “kid what are you saying to me” #and Tim is like “I know you're Nightwing. The ... spirits told me.” #and honestly it's more believable that a 12 year old kid is psychic than that he figured out who Nightwing was on his own #ted talks #anyways lots of fun hijinks can ensue. Tim is technically a security rick and even though dick REALLY doesn't wanna talk to bruce #he should tell him about this... psychic child #Which can just be more questions and Tim answering them and is like #if i wasn't psychic how would i know this. #and Bruce.... doesn't know. So they have no choice but to believe him #psych tim au #also including: bruce being like “.... can you tell my son (jason) i love him?” #tim would actually be pretty good on the field with moments notice observations #he's been trained his whole life to read people at parties and know what they want from him and what they mean #regular people are MUCH easier to read than the elite who say everything backhanded and all have like poised masks of perfection #raye was telling me their psychic tim au and i was like 'ok but what if just psych' #catch us out here both writing separate fake psychic tim aus
