Wishful Thinking: Weak Hero Characters Edition (My Imagination of Their Careers)

Edited for typo (Nobel)

I hope that Sieun (Gray) and Baekjin (Donald) will be the future mathematicians of Korea, solve new math problems and publish them academically. Maybe they will get a joint Nobel prize one day...and I hope Sieun will still ride a motorcycle!

I hope that Teo (Teddy) will run an animal shelter or pet shop. Not sure but maybe if he studies hard enough he could be a vet! Aja aja, Teo!!

I hope that Juntae (Eugene) will work in an NGO and help solve local social infrastructure problems. Maybe if he studies hard enough he could get a degree in engineering.

I hope that Juyang (Rowan) will use his Australian and Eunjang experiences to run a successful Youtube channel and become a great influencer.

I hope that Humin (Ben) will maybe try for the U-21 soccer team, and if that's too late for him I hope he could do whatever he's happy about (maybe open a popular pizza shop?). Or maybe he could join Juyang's channel.

I hope that Gayool (Gerard) will try singing again professionally, whether as a solo artist or in a band. And that he will be happy about it.

I hope that Hyuntak (Gogo) will try for a career in boxing. I hope he'll never, ever give up on his dreams.

I hope that Pilyoung (Philip) will become a successful businessman, but an ethical one. He's rather good as a political lobbyist too.

Whatever it is that Seongje (Wolf) wants to do I hope it's not criminal. I hope he has a hobby that he could expand into a business.

I hope that Hwangmo will find his own independent way and not just follow Seongje around anymore. I hope he'll stay friends with Jeongyeon (Jack) and Naksung. He's rather good in making friends...another person with a prospect as a lobbyist!

I hope that Hakho (Jake) will be a professional manga critic or maybe cosplayer. And occasionally play basketball or soccer with his friends and maybe Jihoon (Jimmy).

I hope that Jihoon will try to draw again and not afraid to show it to people. Maybe sketch more. Go and take a drawing course, dude. Manhwa artist as a career might be just for you...ehehe.

I hope that Sehan (Forrest) and Seungjin (Myles) will do something else other than gangster stuff.

On that note, I hope that Gongsam (Grape) can eat as many grapes as he wants. Maybe try making grape juice and sell them, or maybe a winery? Hmm.

I hope that Hyukjin (Dean) can eat as many bread as he wants and maybe try a career in modelling. His looks and drip are too good to waste. Or a gamer hehe.

I hope that Taegi (Timothy) will try a career in game development or business analyst. Gotta make use of that statistical analysis skill.

I hope that Seokhyeon (Kingsley) will find whatever he wants to do other than running the Union behind the scenes. I suspect that he might be interested in politics.

I hope that Hyoman (Colton) will find his strengths other than fighting. And this time with a better approach to life and friendships.

I hope that Seongjin will watch Gayool performing on stage again as a fan. And that he will enjoy Gayool's new music as much as he enjoyed his old one.

I hope that Dongha and Seongmok will find a great way to stay friends without hurting each other or other people. Maybe Dongha should model for a shampoo.

I hope that Jeongyeon (Kang) will be able to go to karaoke with Jihoon again, but this time with other people who also love singing! Maybe Gayool, Naksung, Seongjin, people who used to be his enemies. And I hope he will find something peaceful to do ( traveling?).

Kdramas i've watched this year

Some of these are older dramas but i'm a procrastinator

Black Knight (2023): Loved this one! I have watched it probably 5 times now. Kim Woobin kicking ass is all i need!

Under the Queen's Umbrella (2022): I didn't watch this when it aired (no idea why). I was worried that the plot would be overrun by romance but thankfully i was wrong. Loved Kim Hye-Soo's performance (i cried a little).

Island seasons 1 & 2 (2022-2023): Honestly i only started this one for Kim Nam-Gil. I loved the cast, but the flow of the plot was a little off (don't know how, i can't put a finger on it). Was positively suprised by Cha Eun-Woo's acting, i think he needs more roles like this! Hot villain alert no.1! Sung Joon as a bad guy is either a blessing or a curse. Cgi could have been better.

Taxi Driver season 2 (2023): Loved the first season so of course i had to watch the second one. Love Lee Je-Hoon. Love the main characters. Love the plot and the message of this drama. A masterpiece. Waiting for season 3.

Weak Hero Class 1 (2022): Only heard of this drama wayyy after it aired (thanks tiktok) and god does it deserve every award there is! I was a bit hesitant because Park Ji-Hoon was the main lead, but boy was i wrong because his talent got me speechless (weren't we all). I cried, i cheered, i shadowboxed, i cried a little more and in the end i called my therapist. Thankfully season 2 is coming.

Bloodhounds (2023): Woo Do-whan and Lee Sang-Yi in the same drama beating people up? Yes please! The plot wasn't mindblowing, but sometimes just simple ass kicking is enough. Bromance was bromancing. Park Sung-Woong with another great villain character.

Revenant (2023): After dropping Mr.Sunshine i wanted to see Kim Tae-ri in other dramas, so when this aired i gave it a go. Her range is phenomenal! I have only seen couple spookier dramas, so i made a mistake and watched this at night (slept with the lights on). The eerie vibes and plot twists were well made. Hong Kyung had great chemistry with Kim Tae-ri and his cop role was refreshing to see after his performance in Weak Hero Class (if you know you know).

Flower of Evil (2020): Okay, this is one of the dramas i procrastinated hard on. It's been sitting on my "have to watch" list since it aired and i'm the only one to blame (i hype up a drama in my mind, then don't want to watch it because now i'm afraid it doesn't go the way i think it does and then i get disappointed blaablaablaa). This year i finally got over myself and why. didn't. i. watch. it. sooner!!!! It is all i ever wanted in a kdrama. 1. serial killers 2. a psychopath (but is he really?) w/ an effed up childhood 3. mindgames 4. marriage problems (but has a lot of soft & cute scenes) 5. Lee Joon-Gi. Also as a plus (hot villain alert no.2) the bad guy is kindaa (i'm sane i swear). I would be lying if i didn't say that i found the wife slightly annoying (might be me, but she went too much back & forth and sometimes i had to take a breather while watching), but all in all this drama will be hard to top and i fell in love with Lee Joon-Gi.

Moving (2023): Honestly one of the best dramas of the year. I don't usually really go for plots that have a lot of romance in them (if you haven't noticed), but i found this one to be really well balanced and the romance scenes weren't "cringy". Although Bong-Seok and Hui-Soo were great and had great chemistry, i looooved the background stories of the parents. Park Hee-Soon also pops up as kind of a non-villain villain. I hope there is a season 2.

Song of the Bandits (2023): Kim Nam-Gil again. 1920s Korea and gunslingers... what more could i need? After Mr. Sunshine left me with a disappointment (this might be an unpopular opinion) i craved for a drama set around the same time period, but with a little less romance (i know, i am defective). I think dramas should explore this time period more, but i understand it might still be a touchy subject. The skills of the cast were obviously great, Kim Nam-Gil killed his role like always, but Lee Ho-Jung as Eon-Nyeon shined with her performance (i am now a new fan). Hot villain alert no.3! I have seen Lee Hyun-Wook in Remarriage & Desires and seeing him as a villain made me feel things. If there isn't a second season i will cry.

The Killing Vote (2023): A "serial killer" in a dog mask making the public vote on punishing criminals and everyone suspects each other? Cyber crime? Chemistry between two cops? Major hot villain (no.4)? Sign me up. I love when crime dramas make you question your people reading skills (i have the tism so i really got none) and have all kinds of theories flying around. I liked that even Kim Mu-Chan and Joo Hyun had obvious chemistry between them it didn't overshadow the main point of the plot. I liked Seo Young-Joo's delivery and i hope he gets more bigger roles. Kim Kwon.... why does the psychopath have to be hot? He also needs more bigger roles. !spoiler! Also Park Sung-Woong killing (heh) yet another morally grey character.

The Worst of Evil (2023): Okay, first of all i have to say... the wife ruined everything (some agree and some don't). We get another bromance duo of the year with Wi Ha-Joon and Ji Chang-Wook. Loved the crime organization infiltration plot, heavily despised the romance plot (sorry Bibi baby). I was constantly on the edge of my seat and the characters started to get so morally grey that in the end everyone needs group therapy. Action scenes were chefs kiss. A honorable mention goes for Lee Shin-Ki as Seo Jong-Ryul (or Chief Seo, knife guy, the man has many names) and Bibi for her performance as Lee Hae-Ryeon.

Evilive (2023): Heavily underrated. Kim Young-Kwang doing what he does best, playing a psychopath. This combined with a bromance plot with the one and only bromance master Shin Ha-Kyun? I'm sold. The dramas literal title "villain story" really sums up the plot. Sometimes you are not sure who to cheer for. Sometimes you are not really sure about your own sanity. But to be fair, so aren't the main characters.

Vigilante (2023): Love it. Currently re-watching it. Needs more attention. Needs more episodes. I'm in love with Nam Joo-Hyuk. The best crime drama of the year, the title is all i needed to hear. Beating up criminals in well made action scenes is my favorite genre. No romance. One sided bromance? Morally grey characters (am i repeating myself now?). Yoon Ji-Tae as a beefy cop and Lee Joon-Hyuk as a slightly insane admirer? If we don't get a season 2 i will start a riot.

Lowkey, the fun part about creating quirks is how absolutely stupid you can make them.

Cos on one hand, you've got something sensible like "This is Yonah, and her quirk is called Forget-Me-Not. She can create a pollen that temporarily leaves its victims disoriented and forgetful." Or "This is Lizzy, and their quirk is called Venom. When they drink blood, they can use it to create venoms of varying toxicities and inject it through their fangs."

But on the other hand, you've got "This is Jacob, and his quirk is called Dora. By pretending to acknowledge a fictional audience, a massive cursor will spawn and point to whatever the answer to his question is. Yes, he needs to act like he's talking to preschoolers when he does this."

#mha #bnha #my hero academia #boku no hero academia #i thought of the first two as potential AU quirks for izuku #(cos i'm weak for those kinds of AUs ngl)#but dora came to me in the middle of the night while i was trying to sleep

For all that Na Baekjin has these strange laughing scenes people in the story keep being scared by... this panel is much scarier for me.

It is a combination of things. The way he seems to calm despite having cut his own forehead open. The smile, the unblinking look, the way his eyes and his blood are the same colour and how his blood and eyes are the only colour on him with how skin is almost as pale as his white shirt.

It gives him a kind of eeriness that is kinda unsettling.

Still pretty though.

Well fuck me, i just spend an hour looking through my liked posts, to find that one angst Damian and Danny twins. Still didn't find it. Imma describe it lil more bellow, but if anyone knows what prompt I'm talking Abt pls tell me, imma tag it in the morning.

Prompt: Danny and Damian twins, but they hate each other. I think in the og post there were two versions, like Danny hoping Damian likes him now, but Damian tries to stab him, or both of them hating each other. I didn't take any route, i just wrote this prologue thingie. I think i might continue this, but if anyone gets inspired, feel free to add anything?

Something Abt Danny and Damian hating each other (or Damian hates Danny, Danny... Tried to survive, and later Damian regrets everything and Danny is bitter/scared of Damian) just scratches this part of my brain. Anyway yee that's all

Danyal al Ghul was gone.

His body was left to rot in some abandoded bunker. His grave empty, because Damian never bothered to bring his body back. His name deleted from every record, no failure has place between the best.

Damian didn't remember much about him. He knew his brother looked similar to him, they were twins after all. He was also pretty sure the younger one was shorter than him, though that couldn't be correct. There weren't any memories of Danyal being sick, so how could he be shorter than Damian? There was also the distinct impression of an awkward smile, but he might've mixed the memories up. Why would his twin wear such an unsure (pathetic) expression (grimace)? He was also the son of the demon, even if he was a failure. There is no such a place for weakness.

No, it must have been someone else. Damian had another clearer memory where his face was perfectly neutral. There is no reason to make such a face, if you are able to hide it.

Though that... Wasnt correct either?

Richard had recently taken to try and explain more about how their family functions. He reasoned that surely the League and Batman work diffefently, giving Damian many sound arguments. Yet he was sure the real reason for these... Lessons, was to explain more about the mundane side of things.

In one of the evenings spend arguing with the older man over the most idiotic things (if Drake was acting stupid, obviously he deserved a knife thrown at him), Damian somehow found himself talking about his annoyance, with his family uselessly emoting. How is Damian supposed to know, when they are truly proud of him, when they are truly disappointed, when they always show all of their emotions? How is he supposed to see which one is just them being weak, and which one is true?

His brother looked at him. There was pity in his eyes. And guilt. And pain. Damian wished Richard wasn't his brother.

Richard explained it. He spoke of emotions, and how they are natural, and none of them are false.

Damian didn't understand. He's not sure if understabds them now. But. If no emotions are false. And none of them make him weak. [Than why did mother taught them]

He doesn't like thinking about it.

But he hates thinking about Danyal more.

All his supposedly true emotions don't make sense. He... He feels his chest fill up with warmth when he thinks of him. He feels similar pain as when he is hungry in his chest. A strange mist falls and chokes his mind, whenever he is even reminded of his younger twin.

And there is bead of pure hatred inside his lungs, hating his crooked smile, detesting his small hands and despising his bright eyes.

[Wishing death on himself for not remembering their color. How could he forget his own twins eye color? Why does he only remembers the disgusting lightness making his stomach churn, their ugly staring at all his faults, wishing him fail]

Damian is quite sure Richard lied. There is no way all these foolish emotions are true. They don't make sense by themselves, how can they make sense mixed together? And after all they aren't strong enough to overcome hus brilliant self control, so they cannot be that true.

Or they weren't, until he caught the eye of a stranger.

A stranger with bright eyes.

With an awkward crooked smile, but other wise empty face.

A stranger with their hands playing with their shirt in obvious show of nerves

A little shorted than himself and...

A face almost the same as Damian's.

Weak Hero thoughts, rants, and spoilers for chapters 263 to current.

Sorry if this gets lengthy, but I got some feelings to express.

So, I gave myself a few days to process my thoughts and emotions on the conclusion of Weak Hero. To try and make sense of the direction the author decided to take his story on. And honestly, I'm still left feeling let down and disappointed.

In my opinion, one of the greatest slights an author can do to their fanbase and to their work, especially if it's a lengthy story, is to end the story abruptly. To me that is the equivalent to a slap in the face. A big slap to all the fans who have invested their time, energy, and possibly even money to the story the author has been creating. Years of tuning in and refreshing pages, only for the ending to feel so damn rushed.

I was really holding out for a small sliver of hope, I wanted to "trust the process." Maybe there would be an introduction to an amazing plot twist, or a great revelation to understand and explain why the storyline turned into what it did. But at this point, with only the epilogue left, none of that is gonna probably happen, and I'm left wondering why?

I've even wondered if the kdrama had any influence on how Weak Hero ended. Would it have been different if the kdrama never existed? Did Seopass just get tired of his story and the characters, maybe he wanted to move on to something else already? Cuz any which way that I try to look at it, I just can't comprehend why he chose that ending. Especially for Donald. One of the most charismatic characters in the series. The final boss, who possessed both brains and unmatched brute strength. A master strategist who managed to unite a whole district. A literal unbeatable character.... who he gets done in by a wayward truck!?! Right after the biggest fight in the series!?! Like, are you for fucking real? That's how his demise happens?!!?

I'm not even a Donald fan! He was never my fave (that honor always went to Jimmy ❤️), but even I expected more for him. Donald didn't even go down swinging, kicking, barely hanging on by the skin of his teeth. His death happening in the same way he lived his life, like some sort of poetic justice. No. We got none of that. Instead, we get a self defeated Donald, who was reaching out to the universe for someone to stop him, and who purposefully? didn't avoid the truck???

I'm sorry but no, DONALD DESERVED BETTER!!! HE, AS A CHARACTER, DESERVED BETTER!!!!

AND THEN, we get thrown some pity crumbs at the end with Stephen. Which to me was just another rushed ending. We get some half assed reunion. No backstory on what Stephen had to go through. No idea what his thoughts were while recovering from his near fatal drop. Did he ever think of Gray? Did he ever try looking for him?

Was I the only one that expected more from Stephen and Gray's reunion??? I can't be the only one completely disappointed, or am I?

I am however grateful we got to see Stephen again, I really am, and that we got a conclusion for him. Since it didn't happen with some of the other plotlines.

For instance, what happened to the Mapo guys, and Changhui saying they were going to wait for an opportunity to strike back? Am I the only one that remembers this?

And where the capital F was Wolf's backstory? He's a fan favorites and we get nothing? No idea on why he's a such a psycho or the reasoning behind his 3 second rule? Or even why he has it out for Grape so much?

And let's not forget about this guy! He never even got a name!

There's more, but I'm not gonna go into all of that right now since I don't want to just trash this series. I fell in love with it for a reason, and now I want to talk about the parts that I enjoyed, and that made me remember why I loved this series so much in the first place.

Like...

The fact that Jimmy wanted Donald's recognition. Even after talking crap about him every chance he got~ lol. He still valued him as a capable leader and cared about how Donald perceived him.

And how Jimmy's signature wrist swish was influenced by Donald!!! I would have never in a million years thought that Donald was the reason and inspiration for it.

And I absolutely loved how Jimmy and Wolf were bickering at the end. It completely reminded me of siblings arguing with each other at any and every opportunity! I know there's gotta be some underlying respect and friendship for each other there, waaay deep inside, somewhere in a dark crevice of their little crazy hearts. 😆

And cuz I want to gloat too, I'm gonna add Jimmy whooping Gerard's butt. Take that shuttle patch!

I was also pretty surprised by how distraught Phillip became after Donald's death. Especially considering that the last time Phillip had any real interaction with him, Donald pretty much blew him off. Phillip not being important enough for even a backwards glance. For Phillip to still remember what it was like standing next to someone like Donald, and to have all those emotions come out of him just broke my heart.

And I am not about to forget my lovely Colton! Our very first villain. Pervy villain at that! And how much growth he's had, even as a secondary character. I went from feeling disgusted at him to wanting to give him all the hugs and support in the world.

I love you Colton you big doof! 🫶

And with that last thought I end this. Because as much as I hate the ending, I can go on and on about the things that I did like.

#feels like GOT all over again!#all that character development and for what! 😫#Justice for Donald #Weak Hero #Weak Hero spoilers #thoughts and rants #bittersweet feelings #webtoons

here to make a weak hero class 1 post

what makes me so sad about beomseok is that he’s so accustomed to the violence his adoptive father inflicts on him and the total lack of love that he gets in that house that he doesn’t/can’t recognize real, genuine love and care when he gets it. like, you see him flip out on sooho and it feels so unfathomable because sooho is so morally good and he abandons sieun so easily. but like, it makes sense, in the most horrible way, because beomseok only knows how to resolve conflicts with violence. he can only win or really find salvation in the violence he could have inflicted on his old friends, but he sees sooho stopping him as an act of control rather than as an act of care. and the worst part is i think this hurts sooho because sooho stops him because he cares. the same way he stopped sieun—although they weren’t friends yet then, but i think sooho had known/seen sieun enough by that point. that sooho knows there’s an uncrossable line that you can’t come back from, and he doesn’t want sieun or beomseok to cross that line, and he tries to stop beomseok from facing worse consequences for that act of violence because he cares. and the whole thing is just so fucking tragic because beomseok just doesn’t see that sooho never was ordering him around or taking advantage of him—he genuinely cared. that was his friend. beomseok was his friend. but beomseok just…couldn’t see it.

i’m sad!!!!

#i hate this show why did you do this to me #weak hero class 1 #i’m just watching it again and had this thought and needed to get it out thanks for ur time #season 2 when i need sushi reunion real bad

fresh off of the manga I assumed that the timeline went Kakashi spends about a year in the Academy, Kakashi graduates as a chunin, and then Sakumo kills himself. It explains why Kakashi's classmates had no idea his dad died (and why they kinda seem to expect a less snippy Kakashi?), and it also makes what Sakumo did a little less... I dunno, they seem to treat chunin as young adults in Konoha. (That's the timeline I used for my fic, as well.)

except, upon further assessment, it seems more likely that Sakumo dies when Kakashi is a genin, or, even more likely, before he graduates the Academy at all. which makes everything even worse. I mean, it makes the whole 'chunin at six' thing completely tragic—hell, it throws the whole talented part into question. as for Sakumo... my man, your kid's, like, what, five? give or take a year? I understand your situation, but your kid. your five-year-old. in your fucking house, dude, holy shit.

#kakashi #kakashi hatake #sakumo hatake #naruto #tw: death #tw: suicide #it's why sakumo is so difficult to write #on one hand #a hero who chose his comrades over his mission #on the other #someone who forgot his son for a brief horrific irreversible moment #and spent the next few decades clinging to some in-between place in penance #its the jutaposing of courage and weakness and maybe even a level of impulsiveness #naruto thoughts

I'm rewatching some episodes and you know what, I always wondered why in chapter 191/episode 90, Dabi didn't attack Miruko when she arrived on scene. Not that I wanted him to. Instead, he bounced out of there.

I thought about it.

Him being him, he could have just shot fire at her and even taunt her, and then continued on with Endeavor and Hawks while they were down. He comes off as the type to not really give a damn about "right times" and what not. And his quirk can be advantage against someone like Miruko because again, it's fire. He could use it to keep her away.

But then I further thought about it.

One, he does recognize her. He didn't even remember Snatch, but recognized her.

Meaning, he knew what she was about and probably got flashbacks to when Gran Torino knocked him out. Something Gran Torino and Miruko have in common?

They're fast and melee fighter.

Dabi isn't. I guess he figured that he would have most definitely get his ass beat the moment Miruko got close to him.

Even if he shot fire at her, he would probably miss because she's fast. And even if he did get her, this is Miruko. It will not stop her!

The end result would still be possibly him getting knocked out and arrested.

THIS IS HER ENTRANCE INTO THE FIGHT!! THIS IS WHAT SHE DOES!!

Dabi is cool and all, but he doesn't have them hands. He's not stupid, he's knows that. He can read people, but Miruko? When he recognizes Miruko, he knew she was about it. That's someone he cannot toy with.

He was not going to further waste time there. He knows when to choose to retreat and what to fight.

That time? Oh, time to go!

And even if he did try to taunt her, try to get under her skin it would have been fruitless.

This Miruko, we're talking about. You think she'll let Dabi say something out the way to her? Exactly, what could Dabi say to her?

I would say it would have been a back and forth banter between them, but Miruko just doesn't seem like the type to waste time and most likely, she probably would have said something that would tick him off.

I only watched the first four episodes of season four and have only the vaguest notion of what happens in the rest of it. And I've been told that I misread what was going on and that that's not where the plot was going. But.

I cannot get over the wasted potential of not having Vecna's Curse target, specifically, people who feel guilt over being responsible for another person's death. (Even though they're not, actually, responsible.)

Like. Apparently what was going on with Chrissy was an eating disorder. I misread the coding on that hard in the early episodes, and thought that she'd recently been to Chicago to see Jane. And if she had...apparently Jason was also super religious? If Chrissy had had an abortion, because they'd been having sex, then that makes a whole thematic reinforcement to his hypocrisy and whatever half-baked point the show sort of made gestures at making about the Satanic Panic.

Then there's Fred and his friend. Whatsisface in Pennhurst, the older Creel, and the baby in the house he ordered the bombing on. Max and Billy. Nancy and Barb. (Hell, Steve and Barb if you really want to play to your audience.) You could even use that to tie in the adults' storyline - we haven't heard about Hopper's guilt over Sara in a minute!

And all of that would dovetail nicely into motive. Because apparently "Vecna" is, in fact, Henry Creel, is in fact Experiment 001? Who [something something something] psychic powers [something something] horrific child abuse [something something something] massacre at the Hawkins lab [something something] Always Chaotic Axe-Crazy?

But it would make so much sense for a child who'd been ripped from his family, survived awful mistreatment in the name of the greater good, and been witness to the deaths of other kids just like him due to the actions of people who didn't seem to care, who didn't seem to see it as their fault, to be lashing out at anybody he perceived to be like those people.

It would have made sense. It would have been a reason. It would have drawn a throughline from the Big Bad's motivation through to Our Heroes and their actions. It would have given them so much room to work with consequences of the earlier seasons coming back to bite Our Heroes, and could have gone in some really good directions about exploring survivor's guilt and whether these characters really were responsible for any of the deaths they take as their responsibility. And also about institutional hurt and how sometimes, people who have no other option and no way to reach the people who actually hurt them will just aim their pain at anyone in reach, anyone who looks enough like the person who hurt them if you squint and hold your tongue just right, and how, to make actual change against the systems that hurt people, we all need to keep in mind who the real enemy is. It could have been so good.

#stranger things #i have been working on former heroes and I have. thoughts.#but for any of that to have happened the duffers would need to a) give half a damn about characterisation #and b) stop believing the only categories of person in the world are 'bully' and 'victim'#and that the only way to stop being one is to become the other #i am also still frothing at the mouth about the fact that they apparently. made the Big Bad's weakness music.#put in a new character who is LEAD GUITARIST in a BAND #put him into MOST OF THE EPISODES in an IMPORTANT PLOT-RELEVANT ROLE #and then NEVER. HAD. HIM HAVE TO PLAY SOMEBODY'S SONG. ON THE GUITAR. TO SAVE THEM FROM THE BIG BAD.#WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY *DOING* FOR THOSE TWO YEARS OF MANDATORY SHUTDOWN #BECAUSE IT WASN'T 'SCRIPT REVISION' LIKE THEY CLAIMED #how did fucking SUPERNATURAL handle this better!??!?!?#okay. i'm okay. i'm good.

I know I'm like really f-ing late to this but thanks for tagging me @ladyelainehilfur This helped reignite my obsession of weak hero lol

Rules: Make a new post and post the latest line of your WIP. Then tag as many people as there are words (or as many as you feel like).

Lines: “Ah, you’re so loud Mom. Stop shouting, my head hurts”, he whines with his face scrunched up in pain. The urge to German Suplex him is monumental right now but Jihun decides to be the bigger man and lets it go.

Tagging: @hanhanartz @sharlulu @azusaluvclub @i-want-all-the-cookies @weakherodiaries

#ahh this is kinda embarrassing lol #never thought I'd actually post even a snippet of this monstrosity but here we are #its a Jake/Wolf fic btw with Jimmy/Lily as the second pairing #i blame you @ladyelainehilfer for making me semi-obsessed with that pairing #when will it be posted? someday #I'll let y'all know!#weak hero #weak hero webtoon #tag game

shadow and zelda were literally sooooo funny nobody understands how much their final interaction makes me lose it. zelda was like "idk yknow i just really think you could be a good guy if you wanted. just saying." and then she gets fucking kidnapped by the dark cloud and shadow is IMMEDIATELY like Thank You For Saying Something Nice To Me. I Will Now Kill Myself To Save You. and then he doesn't even stay dead

#the thing about shadow is that he doesn't quite understand what love is at all and yet he is so full of it that he #attaches himself like a leech to anybody who acknowledges his existence as a person #like he is absolutely a villain who worked so very hard on his crimes and had an absolute blast doing them. but his loyalties were swayed #the moment he started considering vio a friend. and they changed permanently the second he was dragged out of the mirror by ganon #while begging him to not have to go back out into the light (which of course ganon denied) and zelda looked down at him all sopping wet and #pathetic and still told him she thought he was a hero too. despite everything.#and in that moment whether zelda knew it or not she became shadow's friend. and what is shadow willing to do for his friends #as evidenced by his 'friendship' with vio? overthrow ganon and vaati both. and what is he willing to do for someone who was #genuinely and truly kind to him even when by all rights they shouldn't be (ESPECIALLY when he's as weak and vulnerable as he was at that #moment)? overthrow ganon and vaati by Any Means Necessary.#what does it matter if he dies? zelda told him he was a hero too and if she believes in him then that's all the encouragement he needs #to actually act as one.#anyway. flailing around like a fish out of water. do you see how funny they are #fsa #txt
