din’s champion

#tloz #ocarina of time #oot #ganondorf #din #um #ganondin #…..does anyone here ship them ha. hahaha #i mean their whole thing is funny actually because she didnt even choose him but he managed to steal her triforce and #so then hes her ‘chosen’ by technicality. but with her virtue being power it’s maybe kinda one and the same #and anyway beyond that ​point i feel like she loves shaking him around like a mortal dog toy #but like in some way she also must have believed in him enough to give him Power in a different lifetime. so he’d survive his own execution #i;m just saying there is so much you can interpret about their relationship. despite her being #literally an unseen 4th dimensional being who is the embodiment of power and fire and change amd earth itself etc #like what do they think of each other. what does she think of this tiny mortal who somehow stole a piece of her and now theyre bound by it #take my hand walk w me thru mortal x god hyperdimensional traumatic power imbalance situationship. and youre both girls

You know what we should bring back?

Older christianity. I mean the anti government, anti military, community based christianity. The one that cared the most about peace, equality, mercy, kindness, and radical love. The one with shared property. The one that didn't conform to society but instead existed mostly outside of it. The one where noone considered one sin worse than another because in the end, we are all sinners trying our best to be better.

#“progressive christians are ignoring the bible except for ”love thy neighbour“” #yeah well LOVE OVER VERSES #quit it. im tired of this. just. can we just be nice to everyone?? please?? peace and love on planet earth?? #“being gay is a sin tho” “wow this is so immodest” do i look like i care? does jesus look like he cares? i dont think so. #go stab out your eye or smth if you wanna live by the law so badly huh??? #funny how suddenly it isnt literal and shouldnt be done because humanity learned and grew since that was written #*points to the verses used to justify homophobia* i mean literally this whole concept changed since then it isnt even the same thing #screaming at the top of my lungs while punching the wall like please please dont cherry pick the bible #“*blank* is a sin” do you like seafood tho?? is your clothing from mixed fabrics?? did you shave?? #im just saying that maybe you should let the spirit guide you instead of following the law blindly. what do i know tho. im just a stranger. #queer christian #progressive christianity #i guess?? #my religious rants #leftist christianity? anarchist christianity? i do not know??

In addition to the I'm Guessing Tolkien Had Some Hang-Ups About Pregnancy post, I also ran over some interesting but even more unrelated factoids in The Nature of Middle-earth that even I couldn't justify including in the main ramble.

So I made a separate post about those, which includes my favorite:

Arwen would have been even more exhausting for Celebrían to bear than a pair of twins because: Arwen was a "special child" of great powers and beauty The beauty I got from LOTR, but—without being dismissive about the banner—I really wish we had a clearer sense of Arwen's unique stature in her own right in LOTR. She's presented so much in terms of Elrond and Lúthien and occasionally Galadriel and Celeborn, but Elladan and Elrohir are Elrond's children and Galadriel's grandchildren just as much as she is. Yet here she's clearly framed as special and powerful in a way they are not and which drew so much from Celebrían's (and possibly Elrond's) spiritual reserves that they couldn't have any more children. That seems like a big deal! Tell me more! Epilogue: he did not tell us more

sometimes you just gotta draw things that would make your child self go batshit insane

#trousled arts #papyrus #undertale #hm. do i want this to show up in tags that might not bury it instantly. #dammit i guess #underfell #swapfell #underswap #not tagging alphys bc that would jsut be mean #anyway the last one is my favorite i think. he does not know what the fuck that thing is #honestly tho i like all of these more than i thought i would. something about just not thinking too much about neatness unlocked something #the fic itself attempts some serious moments but overall they are all so stupid. peace and love on planet earth

There is nothing better in a romance than a man falling in love with a woman not in spite of her ridiculous quirks and massive issues but because of them. This is why Grace/Max will always be a winner for me. He doesn’t want to change her. She is literally unhinged and he loves it. He loves that she is like that and it’s so funny.

#npmd #Holy Ghost #nerdy prudes must die #the bit at the end where he does the baby girl pose and kicks his legs in the air because he’s besotted with her. unfixable #they’re scorched earth passion of the Christ in love. what does that mean? I don’t know #love is in the air? wrong! it’s violence #do u think she makes him get baptized

[justafriendofxanders]

i'll shut up about this episode eventually but this is one of my favorite underrated lines from the commentary. i rotate "he knows he's going to get shot down, too" in my head constantly.

#he KNOWS? what do you mean he KNOWS #you mean he fucking knows and does it anyways? because he's a fucking. he's a. #i can't do this anymore #god put romantics with no self-preservation instinct on this earth just to torment me #buffyposting #btvs #spike

Y'know I really feel like Harry and Dave's relationship goes highly unexplored which is a shame because there IS quite a bit to explore, ESPECIALLY if you care about shipping. But as the game stands I mean, they must be aware of each other. Harry in fact definitely knows about Dave. I don't think he'd tell the fucking weird rotten bunny his terrible boss brought in IS the number one threat against Freddy's since day 1 but even so. Dave I don't think would see Harry as much more than A Phoney™ though, which is always more of an obstacle and way less of a person. Which is usually opposite of how Jack sees his often sole employee. Like, you get what I mean? It's almost similar to 2 with the main opposing routes being Peter and Dave except the stakes are arguably way lower now.

#luly talks #dsaf #dsaf harry #dsaf dave #harry fitzgerald #dave miller #if you DO care about shipping however the meat to chew on becomes greater #i think dave bond w Phoneys in general goes fairly unexplored which is once again A Shame bc i do like the hypocrisy he holds #in more than one way they mirror each other #now im just getting emotional and derailed now im literally just thinking of steven that's NOT da point now 💥💥💥 #point is i do think you'd take this to a weird domesticating route or simply a more. goofy love triangle one #i mean dave does say he'll win Jack back which is peak divorced line #so its like. a tug war. except Harry isn't like peter who was like employee for the love of god i need your help #harry is pretty passive like Sir. This is urgent but it is your choice ☹️ #sorry my meds are kicking in what am i even saying anymore? #i feel like that NyQuil post im for sure gonna shit the bed tonight #i digress anyway point being i think you'd go many places with this concept #you'd just have them coexist in a way the game doesn't explore. you'd have it just plaguing Jack's mind. #you'd have a one sided rivalry. you'd have a STRAIGHT UP RIVALRY. you'd have tragedy and agony in planet earth #which i saw be touched up on once by that one artist who draws jack like he never left the 80s mullet and all. muppety too. #iykyk there's like 6 harrysport artists overall you'll figure what i mean #and yeah you'd even have a somewhat functional jack having two hands. which is something taps chest i truly think could happen #i believe un love and peace and chsnge and healing and #and copium first and foremost ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️ #my body feels so heavy its hard to leep my eyes open

Loki surveilling the skyline of New York from the top of Stark Tower and clocking that his favorite paired set of buildings are gone. sad

#everyone wants thor and loki to have visited earth a bunch of times and obviously they wouldn't be too invested in earth politics #but i think the concept of much time passing between visits should be taken advantage of #like what if one of them missed seeing the statue of liberty on their past 3 visits and now that's 'suddenly' a famous historic landmark #Loki like wow I sure hope that restaurant in the Soviet Union is still around! #and Natasha's head whips around so fast like you mean Russia or one of the surrounding countries that used to be part of the USSR #Loki: uhm. well. what's the difference #Natasha: here is a map of the countries does this help #Loki: it does not help but thank you for trying #Thor: what do you mean Rome is gone???? Rome was HUGE????? #Tony: well it's been a few centuries since then Europe is very different now #Thor: (visibly distressed) so the the sweet effeminate men enjoy the streets no more?? #Tony: ...I don't keep track of foreign border laws about that #Thor shows up after 3 years and there's a new president and he's very confused through the entire meeting #brodinsons being so detached from the political scene but being so used to realm politics they come to correct conclusions about things #even though the timeline and how long things stay the same on midgard still messes with them #Loki: at least Egypt is still around #Thor: China also #Brodinsons visiting New Zealand(Aotearoa)/Australia/various British mandate islands before the British formally showed up #returning 2 centuries later and 'the gene pool has altered drastically' 'must've been a war' #well it's either that or since Asgard seems spared of colorism they treat all humans as the same and don't notice. which might be worse #on the colonisation and liberation side of things

Just finished dndads s2 finale and feeling very normal about all the characters

#I mean gothcleats was nice #but why did Freddie decide to rush Taylor at the end #though it was in character for Taylor so🤷 #just felt a little off is all #also Normal just not being okay at all makes me feel like we need a spin-off #that or something to do with his 20 years away #I’m excited to see what they’ll do for next season #Freddie or Beth as one shot dms would be great #the winning method would just be appealing to them via references #puppies #and cool stuff #point is: I’m sad about Normal curious about gothcleats married life #like is Jerry aware that his father is from the past #does he know his mother can literally send someone to hell #also what happened with earth and faerune #did they switch everyone #was there an effort towards rehabilitation #so many questions #dndads s2 #dndads spoilers #dndaddies #oh also #I love doodler and I need them to appear again

I hope this doesn't come off condescending but like I really am stunned and confused over how it became a fanfic trope and fanon that:

- Allen, Apprentice of Cross Marian who canonically sleeps completely naked and starts the day sunbathing nude, was depicted as so "pure and innocent and unassuming" that he was absolutely ignorant of sex or what maiming meant

- Lenalee who at a young age got kidnapped into the notoriously anti-sex, pro-celibacy Vatican's military organisation, who her brother very protectively guards and is consistently shown to be very oblivious to advances, ended up somehow well versed in relationships and sex

- Kanda who can barely stand being around anyone but a select few is a rampaging sex chad who fucked everyone in the Order and has an insatiable libido

#i am confusion #i can only touch the earth and ask 'what happened here' #like maybe it started as a joke???? #a meme???? #but then others adapted it without getting It Was A Joke #like i remember this one fic where allen threatens to maim tyki and when he fucks off allen is like #'lenalee what does it mean to maim?' #and i was staring at the screen for like 15 mins after that #completely gobsmacked #like am i missing a joke????

y3 has made me feel many things but one of the things that lingers with me the most about it is how majima takes every possible opportunity and makes every possible gesture to say “please don’t leave me alone again, please take me with you when you leave, I WANT to be right next to you when you need me, I’ll literally do anything for you, just don’t leave me alone again” always indirectly but in strong enough ways that i think it’d be obvious to anyone paying attention EXCEPT Kazuma Kiryu, The Densest Man On Earth, who he’s pleading to in the first place. it’s. frustrating to watch. someone needs to grab kiryu by the shoulders and tell him. for the love of god. this man loves you so much and you keep leaving him when all he wants to do is help you and be with you please just take him to okinawa oh my god

#kazumaji #it’s FRUSTRATING #specifically thinking about the scene in the bar after the pink truck debacle #where majima finally says like. if you’re going to Okinawa to deal with this whole assassination thing or whatever comes up I’m coming #with you. you don’t have a ton of support down there and me and you together are basically unstoppable #pretty much completely outright #and kiryu. the dense stubborn motherfucker he is. is like. i don’t have No One down there I have a few friends (missing the point). I’ll be #fine. I don’t need your help there. you should stay here #I’ll give him some credit because then saying ‘someone has to stay here and keep the Tojo clan from total collapse’ is a good point and it #does mean something that he trusts majima to be that person (especially given I don’t think anyone else on earth would trust him with that) #(despite him being totally capable- you know mad dog persona and all that blah blah blah) #like that’s a good point idk who else would be a good choice to do that considering daigo’s out of commission and who’s even left after that #obviously mine is Sketchy. kashiwagi is (supposedly) dead. everyone else kiryu trusts in the yakuza is dead or injured more or less. #not gonna leave fuckin DATE in charge or something #so. fair enough point. but nonetheless it doesn’t erase the fact that kiryu overlooks what majima means in the grander scheme of things #and still believes first and foremost that he doesn’t need/want his help when he does and he should #he’s just. allergic to making life easier for himself #among other issues #sigh #yakuza 3 #y3 #goro majima #kazuma kiryu #kiryu #majima #rambling
