#when characters go mwah mwah

[zukoromantic]

yes i'm aro but i'm sorry i cannot pretend that i don't love shipping characters. Shipping fictional characters is one of my favorite things to do which doesn't mean i de-value other types of relationships, it just means that i love romance and love the concept of being in love and valuing other people in all kinds of different ways. This is fun for me and i like my way of having fun!

#this is not a statement or anything it's just about me :) #spin irl #i'm aro but GODDD like frankly i wish i fell in love with people. but i don't (there are like two exceptions and they sre both fictional) #when characters go mwah mwah #when characters compliment ech other's arcs in such a unique and/or beautiful way and i want them to be happy and i cri #i also love thinking about other types of relationships clearly #they all infest my brain #but i'm sorry i like shipping literally so much i know that's boring but oh well 🙏 #when the blorbos go kiss kiss like if you agree

man after ep2 i found myself thinking a lot more about this first scene with sakurama and suzukiri, because i think it finally became clear to me why their designs were one of the first things that really grabbed me

like it was specifically their eyes in these close-up shots that i couldn't stop thinking about—

something about this was just delightful and so so so compelling to me, and at first i wasn't sure what it was, because yes their eyes are drawn in very unique ways but it's not like these design choices (glitter gem eyes and dead inside eyes) are ones i've never seen before

but i think it's the fact that they're shown side by side that really made them so striking to me, kind of like showing the two faces of the hero industry at once

anyway. still chewing on this very much. the character designs are all just so good to me

#crab watches #sentai daishikkaku #also ofc i'm sure a part of why sakurama has the glitter gem eyes #is to make it convenient for the viewer to tell when it's fighter d posing as him (with 'normal' eyes) #but i think it speaks a lot to his character too #all glittery and hopeful and trusting of their industry #(well at least what we've seen of him so far is like that... we'll see if it holds/is genuine/etc) #really feel like there are some fun twists in store for us #MWAH this show #this is the first one since... i think sarazanmai #where i want to watch it like. recursively #like rewatch ep1 before ep2 #rewatch ep1 and ep2 before ep3 #and so on...... #(or i could read the manga lol but it's! a beautiful show i think i will wait) #might go for a quick rewatch before bed though.........

i think one of my fave things abt the tmnt fandom is theres so many ppl who have varying ideas abt the turtles' genders and theyre all so right. Agender? Absolutely. Nonbinary? Sure are. Transmasc? Yes. Transfemme? Of course. Cis? So cool. Queer or questioning? I see it. Genderfluid, bigender, demigender? So true bestie. I love it so much.

youre so incredibly correct for this ITS VERY FUN TO SEE PEOPLE WITH OTHER HCS AND IDEAS ABT THE TURTLES THAN MY OWN!! its great to see how people interpret them :3

#OK SO A LITTLE BIT OFF TOPIC BUT #also really fun to know why someone may like one turtle over another and such too ... . . i LOVE diggin into the ol' noggin and learning #the whys and hows :3 #also the whys for some headcanons people have are SICK!!!! even if its a little reason that its your fav turtle and you wanna give them an #identity similar to your own! #or if its something deeper and you go all analysis mode about it! #anywyas peoples creativity in this fandom is . MWAH. chefs kiss. #also more off topic i have a love for the types of characters who struggle with who they are and their identity... i have a couple ocs with #struggles like that that i absoliutely probably went overboard with when making them :3 #ANYWAYS YEAH I AGREE #asks

I just want to say that I read To The Victor Go The Spoils every few days religiously. Oh my fucking god, that one drives me absolutely feral. He is such a horny boyfriend, if Imelda ever tried that again I’m sure he would quit the team. You’d sleep in his room every night with him wrapped around you after he’s had his fill and his roommates would just expect you to be there. A silencing charm and the curtains around the bed closed, they know exactly what’s going on. Rooming with a filthy boy.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU JAHFKSjgkajsAKFJSKGJ

That fic is easily one of my favorites to this day, it was so fun to write and I love a good needy boyfriend trope >:))

Sebastian's roommates can never catch a break after the fact- it's a given that you're in bed with him all the damn time. If he ever forgets the silencing charm, there's instantly like 6 wands pointed at his bed to do it for him. Will they ever get a peaceful night's sleep ? Probably not. Will Imelda ever go to such lengths again in the name of Quidditch ? Absolutely, but Sebastian will go down swinging before he ever puts himself through that shit again LMAO

#asks #I LOVE THAT YOU REREAD IT I SWEAR MY HEART IS FULL ANYTIME YOU GUYS TELL ME YOU GO BACK FOR SECONDS #I need to write more goofy funny smut fics cause those are the ones I have the most fun with #especially when I can stick other characters into the story #like Ominis with his sassy remarks AUGH I love that shit #THANK YOU FOR THIS ASK you've made my day anon I love you MWAH <3

I’ve NEVER read Trimax and I already love post Trimax Knives (me when I love the idea of something and not the thing itself) oh I’m going to squish him and shower him with hugs

#AHHHHHHHHHH #I love hims #mwah #me when a character is healing and making amends after doing diabolical shit #like yes baby you are capable of death and destruction but also love and charity #like yes baby you fucked shit up but you can do good #no one owes you forgiveness but your existence could still mean so much to someone #you are still worthy of something #and you owe yourself that much #it’s your responsibility to be a better person #for yourself and others #now go and make the world a better place #with your second chance #I kiss you mwah #phew I want him so bad #b0tstalks #millions knives #trigun

kny x tokyo ghoul au

was thinking abt following tokyo ghoul's storyline and making nezuko get organ donor ghoul-ified like kaneki but on second thought that seems a bit boring. the slayer marks (tanjiro's specifically- that one frame in the red light district arc where he looks like hes absolutely lost it) made me think of the sort of insanity thing with centipede kaneki when he started eating ghouls. (nezuko's bout of literally losing control of herself beating daki is probably a bit closer tho) dont know what to do with that. tanjiro being human and having to keep nezuko safe with her new life as a half-ghoul is pretty cool but i dont know. could make it different

#sakonji as coffee shop owner and sabito & giyuu as workers and the fox squad being the underground Good Ghouls makes me kick my feet #goth/alt vibe makomo as the mask maker MWAH and sabito & giyuu playing as regular college kids. giyuu 'eating' out with friends and #sabito drive-by eating his food before booking it (Sabito-! you bastard!) and later when theyre alone giyuu holding his hair back #(you should stop eating my food all the time..) ((im fine- as long as it makes it easier on you)) #tanjiro working as a server & nezuko more as #. #i forgot hanae-san also voiced Kaneki #what the fuck is it with him and voicing the main characters of anime about the morality of cannibalism #its not much but its weird that its happened twice #i completely fucking forgot abt that and here i am literally putting tanjiro in his place #as i was saying nezuko has a 'job' there but shes not actually employed or forced to work she just hangs around in uniform like her brother #while tanjiro's the one thats employed. shes the cute mascot of the place and sabito gets hype with her and it entertains ppl #sabito nezuko interactions beloved<3 she makes him go big brother mode #giyuu's behind the counter helping sakonji make coffee so he doesnt have to interact with people (as much) #something something also half-ghoul genya being an antagonist at first until tanjiro & nezuko's bond makes him change his mind #and he becomes the newest employee at the coffee shop. que him and sabito bickering at eachother like children and tanjiro being so #sweetfaced and genuinely kind to him & giyuu being a chill comforting presence he can go to #confides in them his fear about his brother and the guilt he feels for being around them bc it puts them in danger #mm #sweet au. great playing field to ruin absolutely everyone #i should rewatch/read tokyo ghoul its been almost a year i think #do that then decide how i want the au to play out if i want it to try to follow that storyline or if i should do some worldbuilding fuckery #of my own instead to completely change how nezuko & genya's half-ghoulness would happen #i remember i dropped tokyo ghoulre but i dont remember why. didnt bother after that Hide scene in the anime but i dont remember y the manga #i was listening to Seijatachi for writing vibes and stared a bit too long at the album image i put #kny #tokyo ghoul #kamado tanjiro #kamado nezuko #kny x tokyo ghoul au

Waited until after the strike week to talk about this but I had like a whole post about how we should be positive about the new ATLA and then uh.

We got the Percy Jackson special. Shitty live action movie. New streaming adaptation that promises it will be more accurate and well written and what the fans want. And then it comes out and it's... not that.

Well at least we can go back to the trailers and pretend the show's not out yet while we enjoy the vibes presented there.

#it was truly an inspired choice to have the main character literally look into the camera and describe his personality and motivations #and taking away every single character arc by removing the central factor for it to happen? mwah chefs kiss #accidenti #i was like actually excited the same way i was about PJO #but nah thats fine. go ahead and ruin everything from my childhood i dont mind #atla #atla netflix #avatar netflix #avatar #avatar the last airbender #the last airbender #ALSO #you have only 8 episodes to tell a 20 episode story #AND YOU CHOOSE QUITE A BIT OF THE FIRST ONE TO SHOW US SOME RANDOM GUY AND AN ON SCREEN GENOCIDE #THE SAME THING THAT WILL BE COMMUNICATED LATER WHEN AANG FINDS THEIR BODIES #ARE YOU TRYING TO REPEAT SHAYAMALANS MISTAKR #i can use every English and Italian cuss i know and it still won't be able to represent my strangely lukewarm frustration at all this #ugh #at least the set and costume designs look good

more he who drowned the world: i said that the first book felt like it was written specifically because of how much the author liked the side plot with the prince and his eunuch guard. now i feel like actually, the whole duology was written specifically so that the protag could be turned into an explicitly trans character in this second book. like, imo in the first one we were in “woman disguising herself as a man to get an advantage, which definitely has trans undertones” territory, but now the way zhu thinks of her body and past are unmistakably transmasc. i love this shift because of how much this book is digging into the dark and gritty areas of embodiment and gender with all its characters. but i’m also curious what was holding it back before

#text tag #also tho wondering when the consequences from the prev book will hit? i finished it and was like ‘damn this is immediately going to ruin #everything next book’ and then it hasn’t despite my being 2/5 of the way through #the ‘two characters bound together by fate and also they hate each other’ is SO JUICY. the way their genders interact… mwah #me being a bitch and vaguing but i genuinely wonder how [username redacted] would feel abt these books given they dig deep into lgbt #experience in a way that feels much less sanitized than the sff norm despite being [gasp] fiction that’s about people trying to control #a monarchy

my bullying has finally worked and @knownasbeacon has joined tumblr so y'all go follow my boo and shower her with love. she's amazing xoxo

[theoryofarson]

normally the 11th hour "this random side character was actually your BIOLOGICAL FATHER!" twist would be dumb contrived drama fare, but...I think it actually kind of makes sense for the warp effect.

as other people have mentioned, ultimately it's a show about how alex has passed pain on to other people due to his OWN sexual trauma and mental blocks. and of course, that trauma had to come from somewhere - we already knew it came from his mother and religion, but it's very interesting to learn that THAT started as his mother's response to being betrayed by a man and left to fend for herself.

now we can plainly see a huge web of parallels, or better, repetitions. alex's sin is the same as the sin that begat him. and alex's guilt is the same as teacher saran's guilt. to an extent, alex's unwillingness to forgive teacher saran is the same as jean's unwillingness to forgive alex.

i'm not sure yet how those stories of forgiveness (or lack thereof) play out. but what's clear is that this show is telling us about the responsibility we have for others. loving someone, being with someone, puts responsibility on all of us to take care of them. otherwise, it creates hurt, especially for those who are often cast in a more critical light by society (women, queer people), and that hurt carries forward into the lives of our children.

#warp effect #the warp effect #the warp effect ep 11 #i just fucking love stuff that explores...parents passing on their sins to their children #nightmare on elm st - bad buddy -warp effect. wouldnt expect those to have a common thread but there you go #also this theme of responsibility is not just with alex and saran #but with all the characters #army obviously fails in his responsibility to joe of respecting his boundaries and just. idk not being a dick #mollie is very intentional about offering to be responsible for both nim and her child #but nim is not responsible for the feelings she leaves mollie with after engaging them romantically/sexually without clarifying her needs #jedi and rose learn that they are responsible for being honest with each other even about their most embarrassing (cute) feelings #see-ew realizes that hes been leaving liu with all the resposibility for making him feel good #and learns to be responsible for her happiness too #and finally kat learns that shes not responsible for someone elses anger when they chose not to listen to her #MWAH #goodNIGHT #theoryofarson.mine

ok i am not gonna play thru all of ISAT today but what ill say is. the difference in the bathroom scenes btwn ISAT and SASASAP is well its um well its you see well . WELL!!!!!!!

#cant wait to see sif slowly but completely lose their shit is what im saying #its interesting i think some of the things that made sasasap compelling are functionally impossible to replicate #when you start where isat starts #but also i love isat so far like its different but its good in that different way #and the charm and humor of all the characters and the art is just so polished and. mwah #but yeah i will be curious to see if you can get sif to that point of despair you see him in during sasasap #just bc like. in sasasap its ok for sif to experience monotony bc you the player are figuring out whats going on #but isat would have to balance sif getting sick of the loop without making the player sick of it #we shall seeeeee #isat #c.txt

i’m very happy with where i ended up on xarrai’s story and character and arc but it IS funny to imagine if they had stayed just some dude. you have a party full of people with influence and connections and then like… here’s the local stoner bard who moonlights as a courtesan i guess?

#they were just on their way to the bathhouse dude. they were just vibing. #now they have an entire meticulously planned arc and personal quest like they are an origin character LOL #but when i made them i was like ‘i’m just going to make a little weird gay person. silly funny :)’ #fundamentally. they are still my strange gay person. mwah #oc. xarrai

[askatriangleandastar]

I'll elaborate later but for the core essentials: The Sun and Moon Show (as well as the other shows of the same team) have a theme about figuring out one's self and how the choice to grow or stagnate further impacts those around them.

Its seen with Roxanne, in her initial self-obsession, lashing out after getting freedom from the Chip, and then how she's been growing as a person and parent currently.

Its visible in Funtime Freddy and how lost be was without BonBon and Shadow Freddy in the want to matter, to do good but finding power in fear and darkness at Freddy's rejection of his magic.

Sun and Moon in so many ways have had things get to this point from trying to figure out who they are when not a part of the same form. Of Sun initially relying on fulfilling the role he was made for to the best he could to determine how he acts and interacts with others (chiding them on language, conversation topics, withholding reactions of anger when stressed, etc). With Moon trying to go as far from who he was before, when he had so little control over what he could do, how he could feel, and how it to this day drives him into making plans and tech for security.

Eclipse coming from Sun, still being a part of Sun that is again and again rejected. . .. it honestly fits Moon's assertion that Eclipse isn't a person, why Eclipse can't stand to be entirely alone even in a timeline where he succeeded. It's easy to miss with how he's acted further on, but there were times Eclipse had been clingy, brittle, more stressed and clawing to importance than a mastermind.

To know what could get under Sun's circuits in one line, if that was an insecurity he knows best... Dark Reflections my beloved, I may be getting incomprehensible but more to be said, for certain.

#Octa Talk #the sun and moon show #the sun and moon show theories #I mainly watch SAMS and it shows but from whatvive glimpsed of the others it only reinforces this impression #That discovering who you are and what defines you and where you go from there ripples through all of them #Have not even TOUCHED on the insecurity of Gregory in recent times when he's withholding a dangerous secret from his friends #Of trying to find where he came from and how finding so little is going to affect him- how VANNY manipulates him from that longing #Or how Static Characters like Monty and Golden Freddy- who know exactly who they are- contrast SO WELL against everyone else in their arcs #The growth of Monty to the viewers just being an increased awareness of who he is beyond how he presents *mwah* #Just want to get some of it down before Kirby can steamroll the spoons
