#and at the same time they arent fully cardboard

[i-bring-crack]

No one in the history of ever:

Every creator out there that got their hands on the rights of adapting Solo Leveling: Mind if I just *starts packing shit ton of more SL content*

#and we love them forever #eternally grateful for people looking at Chugong's work and being like: baby i can fix you *spams more lore MORE CONTENT* #now the thing is that things begin to contradict each other a lot more than usual #for example the LN SL will have Esil dead #and then in other interpretations she is alive and or she isnt #and then the backstories would be different in game than it would be in SL Rag #and like you can choose which ones you like #but you also are free to not follow canon as much as you want #because these characters arent defined entirely even by canon standards #they are fully fledged in some things #and at the same time they arent fully cardboard #and the more sl content they add the more they feel real to you #but it doesnt stop you from making them however you wish to interpret them #its odd and quirky. but thats cuz we mostly see everyone in a serious situation and not in a realxed one per say #but somehow anything can fit #anyways time to shut up #solo leveling #solo leveling ragnarok #SL Arise #Solo leveling anime

Crumbling over the fact that essek does not look at any of the nein's eyes while he lies about adeen "confessing" he stole the beacons. he just stops mid sentence for a split second, looks away, hesitates and then lies to his hands and looks up a milisecond after. he is the literal head of espionage for his whole nation and has been getting away with treason for two whole years but the nein broke down his walls so thoroughly he is choking on honesty that would get him killed while simultaneously trying to survive and get out of a messy situation of his own creation. he wants to be better but he can't yet.

#time and timing are different beasts #essek thelyss #critical role #cr2 #m9 #essek brainworms #meta.rot #txt #a rewatch is mandatory for his story btw like these little minucles moments are so easy to miss when you arent fully focused on him #nor as delightful to dissect #same can be said about well literally all of the pcs btw c2 is made to rewatch #just bonkers bananas stuff #i love him #i want to crush him like bug and study his insides #shake him around on a cardboard box snow globe salt shaker #etc etc

When good and powerful arent substitute for actual personality in female characters aka Ben value to Rey's character.

The thing that i think makes women being so ride or die with Rey + Ben is the way he pushes her story and via their conflicts allows us to truly know Rey in all her struggles, pain and faults in opposition of just a)uncritically worship the floor she walks in therefore creating this bland boring heroine who is just great (cough cough you know what i mean) b) So devoided of goodness that automatically allows Rey to not ever reason or ask questions about herself and reflect on her choices and because of that we are never able to truly know all her edges.

Media lately is just unable to reflect on women with the same keen eye and absolute interest as he does on men. They are all trying to bank on feminism and empowerment as buzzwords they take of the most boring readings of what it means and make more or less the same story: "We are now gonna worship this woman that we are not developing into a fully complex person, she barely has backstory of faults or conflicts with her inner self or complex relationship with people that are either hero worshipping her or blatantly antagonizing and the narrative has decided they are -for exactly that- just evil. No, we are not developing her more. Shup up. You want female empowerment this is the absolute best we can conjure WHEN WILL WOMEN BE SATISFIED???".

It sucks me dry. Im so fucking not excited about this that my sex drive is now residing with Walt Disney's body in Chryogenic state.

We found ourselves trying to swallow that bland cardboard boring woman that we cant relate to because honestly we are far more interesting and the women in our lives are far more interesting but we have been gaslighted by the industry to think this is the absolute best we can aspire.

Enters the absolute accident that is Ben Solo (I honestly believe he is an accident made by Rian Johnson) whose fucking job in the narrative is make us discover a lot of complexity inside our Rey.

He is not here hero worshipping her (Okay he totally is all the time but gladly it does not come across that way all the time). He has his own garbage going on to just dedicate himself to nurture her in a way that is safe for her and also he is not a total dick that she can get herself of the hook and not interact with him ever.

And what happens? Wow...we get to know Rey thanks to that. We get to know that she in fact a person looking -wrongly- for parental figures, denying herself joy and adulthood because she wants to relive the infancy she never had. We learn that she is actually really feral and angry and fucking impulsive to a fault. We learn that she is brash and follows her instinct always.

We learn that she also longs for freedom of those expectations. That she in fact questions autoritive figures and wants to let go on them.

Its amazing how much of what we now about Rey that makes her into this fully fleshed character is thanks to just putting Ben there and let them both have conflicts and question each other and be allowed to be less than nice but also incredible compassionate and just connected overall. That raw intimacy allows us to see Rey at her worst and her best.

I honestly ask people to just go look for anything interesting and human we learn about Rey that comes from interacting with any other character? Something that it is not another copy of the bland cardboard heroine media always serves us. Ill wait.

He is her literal Jack Dawson propelling her story pushing her out of her comfort zone into what she desires. This is the role all female characters play for men in fiction and he is here..just doing that for her.

There is a female gazey heaven and Jack and Ben stand there.

pride month questionnaire just for my own reference

what is your sexuality? biromantic asexual

what do gender do you identify as? cis woman 

how long have you been aware of your sexuality/gender? around 16-17 i knew there was some shit wrong w me lmao, i had always just assumed i was straight but if we’re being real i knew from a pretty young age that i was broken and an alien. only ever had a few crushes [on guys] in my life but generally felt the same way about both men and women

do you have any preferences? big

share a positive memory about coming out! none

how do you feel about pride month? is good. isnt really “for me” but i will keep the glow i feel about it on the inside, like when i wear a favorite pair of underwear

do you participate in pride related events? any other events? no, though i was invited a few times it was by very sexual people who also drink alcohol so it wasnt really my kinda deal. much as i love sk i didnt really care for ladykiller’s sets

how do you feel about lgbtq roles in media? more, more written by lgbtqia people, less about dying and more about living ffs. let them be alive. let them be professional but also lgbtqia, let them be three-dimensional fully fleshed out characters who are also lgbtqia instead of being one-note cardboard cut-outs erected for Diversity

do you feel pride in who you are? not yet.

who has been your supportive idols in your self discovery? lmao

tell us about your first crush? despite kissing and being in a relationship with and having sex with a girl it didnt occur to me that i might be a lil gay until years later when i had a crush on undyne and she had a crush on a girl who became her girlfriend, and i was like “holy shit, you can do that? undyne likes girls? she likes a girl???? that means???? she could like me???? i could also.... like girls???? girls can be girlfriends???”

what sort of advice to have you lgbtq teens? i have no idea, im 27 and i still feel like a teen, do not ask me things 

have you come out to friends and family? sort of. i tried to tell my siblings and my sister said I just hadnt met the right person yet, to which i asked her “oh well youre bi too, you know, you just havent met the right woman yet” stupid fucking bitch. my brother was silent. so was my mother. my dad doesn’t know, i dont think. he asked me “what does this mean, ‘tracer is gay tracer is gay tracer is gay’?” but the conversation got derailed luckily before i could answer

how do you feel about the term “coming out” ? not really up to me i guess. i only use it because i dont really know another term for it

do you believe there is a “closet” to come out of? sort of, i guess. people dont fucking care about asexuality; they complain that “nobody cares that you’re not having sex, theres no need to talk about it” then when i say something like “well im not really a sexual person” or “i dont like sex” all of a sudden it’s “WHAT WHY ARENT YOU HAVING SEX??? WERE YOU RAPED? YOU SHOULD SEE A THERAPIST. HAVE YOU TRIED SEX TOYS?” - my doctor  So like yeah just saying the word “asexual” gets people really fucking riled up, i have to decide whether or not i want to engage in a fucking hour long debate and reveal my traumas and life story if i feel like even saying my orientation so w/e, that’s the closest kind of a closet i can have i guess. granted im not gonna be gunned down in the street for being asexual but i also dont like being incessantly interrogated and armchair pathologized either

any tips on coming out? no. i never really came out to my parents deliberately, my mom just snooped some shit on my facebook and cornered me w a question about it when i was stuck in the car with her

what’s your biggest pet peeve when it comes to lgbtq characterization in media? stop fucking killing them and making them the butt of jokes

what’s your favorite parts of lgbtq characterization in media? “well at least they’re there, i guess”; alternatively, when done well: “that me”

what did your teachers say about the lgbtqa community in school? i have very little recollection. it was mostly about gay men, i dont recall anything on lesbians, and i remember like one time we had a transgender person (calling themselves transsexual, at the time) come and talk to us, but i didn’t even know it was a thing that could be done or even existed so i had no idea what to make of it. but i remember they were there and spoke to us, even now. i basically just remember it happening lol

do you practice safe sex with the same gender? we didnt use dental dams or whatever, and since we didnt use toys we didnt use condoms. i mean i guess it was pretty safe, we were both monogamous and unsexed to all fuck. we washed our hands i guess?

what’s an absolute turn off for you in the opposite/same gender? this is too weird of a question for me to answer. im pretty demi when it comes to romantic shit, i dont feel attraction to people at all really, though i have felt attraction to people i dont know it’s extremely few and far between. like this year i saw two (2) girls i found attractive, not in a sexual way but i thought they were iridescent beings comprised of pure light and couldnt take my eyes off of them. before that i cant even remember the last time somebody stopped me in my tracks or gave me butterflies. i dunno if i have any real active ‘turn-offs’ aside from basic shit (racism, sexism, general shittiness) other than like... sports, i guess. sports and drugs

what’s an absolute turn on for you in the opposite/same gender? big. soft, hug. hairy boys. hairy girls are fine too but it’s more prominently a thing in guys. cool teeth (if you have cool teeth i will remember you)

how do you feel about lgbtq clubs/apps/websites? not for me

how do you feel about the term “queer” ? use it if you like, but respect those that it hurts

how does your country view the lgbtq community? america a fuck

favorite lgbtq actor/actress? fuck dude i dont even have a favorite straight actor or actress

any tips for heterosexual and/or cisgender people on how to handle lgbtq events/news? 1. it’s not for you 2. be proud for them 3. LISTEN TO THEM. SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND JUST LISTEN

what’s the most annoying question you have ever gotten? literally any time i tell a man im ace and he wants to fuck me, like, anything he says after that point is the worst thing

how do you feel about receiving questions about your sexuality/gender im open to answering but i can only speak from my own individual experience, which is a disclaimer i try to give any time anybody asks me shit. im not the best representative for the bi or ace communities or anything lgbtqia in general. i dont like sex and i barely like people. leave me w my monsters
