I saw this and it reminded me of some of your takes on aang

No notes. This is a perfect breakdown of how Katara was treated, right down to literally being a metaphor for the entire people Aang lost. I just wish she had been able to dump the little creep and have the ending she deserved with Zuko

#atla #zutara #anti aang #anti kataang #i'm not blurring out the op's name because this is a brilliant post #it's not actually about atla or kataang #they might not have even watched the show for all I know #and isn't it just such a shame that something like this can apply to SO many stories?

One of my favorite parts of phase 2 (and indeed one of the few moments I resonated with IDW Prowl) was when the neutrals were coming back to Cybertron and Prowl said that he refused to let Autobots be pushed aside and overruled after they were the ones who fought for freedom for 4 million years (the exact wording escapes me atm).

And I mean, that resentment still holds true even once the colonists come on bc like. As much as it's true that Cybertron's culture is fucked up, and as funny as it can be to paint Cybertronians as a bunch of weirdos who consider trying to kill someone as a common greeting not important enough to hold a grudge over.... The colonists POV kind of pissed me off a lot of times, as did the narrative tone/implications that Cybertronians are forever warlike and doomed to die by their own hands bc it just strikes me as an extremely judgemental and unsympathetic way to deal with a huge group of people with massive war PTSD and political/social tensions that were rampant even before the war?

Like, imagine living in a society rife with bigotry and discrimination where you get locked into certain occupations and social strata based on how you were born. The political tension is so bad there's a string of assassinations of politicians and leaders. The whole planet erupts into an outright war that leads (even unintentionally) to famine and chemical/biological warfare that destroys your planet. Both sides of the war are so entrenched in their pre-war sides and resentment for each other that this war lasts 4 million years and you don't even have a home planet any more. Then your home planet gets restored and a bunch of sheltered fucks come home and go "ewww why are you so violent?? You're a bunch of freaks just go live in the wilderness so that our home can belong to The Pure People Who Weren't Stupid And Evil Enough To Be Trapped In War" and then a bunch of colonists from places that know nothing about your history go "lol you people are so weird?? 🤣🤣 I don't get why y'all are fighting can't you just like, stop??? Oh okay you people are just fucked up and evil and stupid then" ((their planets are based on colonialism where their Primes wiped out the native populations btw whereas the Autobots and OP in particular fought to save organics. But that never gets brought up as a point in their favor)) as if the damage of a lifetime of war and a society that was broken even before the war can just magically go away now that the war is over.

Prowl fucking sucks but he was basically the only person that pointed out the injustice of that.

And then from then on out most of the characters from other colonies like Caminus and wherever else are going "i fucking hate you and your conflicts" w/ people like literal-nobody Slide and various Camiens getting to just sit there lecturing Optimus about how Cybertronians are too violent for their own good and how their conflicts are stupid, with only brief sympathetic moments where the Cybertronians get to be recognized as their own ppl who deserve sympathy before going right back to being lambasted.

Like I literally struggled to enjoy the story at multiple points because there was only so much I could take of the characters I knew and loved being raked over coals constantly while barely getting to defend themselves or be defended by the narrative so like. It was just fucking depressing and a little infuriating to read exRID/OP

#squiggposting #and like dont get me wrong barber wasnt trying to make cybertronians the bad guys or whatever #it's just a problem with his writing where like. he has A Message he wants to send #and so he uses the entire story literally just for The Message even if it involves bullshit plotlines #or familiar characters ppl were reading about for the past decade being shit on by OCs made up to fill a new roster #like barber's writing tends to lean way too much on a sort of lecturing tone #without giving proper care towards including moments where characters get to like. fucking express themselves and share their side #sort of like how barber couldnt be bothered to write pyra magna and optimus actually talking to each other during exrid #and instead during OP ongoing pyra is suddenly screaming about how OP is unteachable #even tho she never even tried to teach him bc she and OP never interacted bc i guess barber couldnt be bothered #he just needed someone to lecture OP so fuck making the story make sense or like letting OP get to say anything in defense #this is the infuriating part of barber's writing bc i think he has incredible IDEAS and was in charge of the lore i was most interested in #but most of the time his execution sucks and he's basically just mid with a few brilliant moments occasionally #or like he has a message about the cycle of violence he wants to convey #but his narrative choices trying to convey that theme made his story come off as super unsympathetic to the ppl who suffered #to the point where barber actively kneecapped some scenes that couldve been super fucking intense and emotional #in favor of the characters lecturing each other or some stupid plot to criticize OP #that time in unicron where windblade screamed about how this is their fault and then arcee replied that her planet is build on coloniation #shouldve happened more often than literally the last series of the ocntinuity. like goddamn stfu about your moral superiority #when your own sins are right fhere lol

there’s something about watching someone not suffer stoically. not gritting their teeth and setting their jaw and just. taking the pain. taking the hit after hit after hit. but crying and weeping and being unable to bear it and begging for help. please god anyone help. reaching out a shaking hand and there is no one there who reaches back. the awful disgusting human desperation of it all

#going insane !!!!!!!! and god ok okok. this happening in this irish film that is so very irish in its setting and dynamics and mannerisms #and the tragical comedy of it all and the juxtaposition and contrast of this. this culture of repression. of ‘why couldn’t he just push it #down like the rest of us’ with his vulnerability and openess and STRENGTH #that being said. i do have criticisms about the movie and with the title and some of the things they did in it. esp w the civil war but yeah #brilliant #ngl this also applies to #lord of the rings #anything tolkien really. and hmm. smth else #the poppy war #the banshees of inisherin #blessed.txt #film tag

Porfiry telling Raskolnikov that at least he was honest and in one bound took the furthest leap to put his theory to the test of actual action——

#Taylor believing a man who is obviously lying to her #like. it’s fascinating to me how they’ll say anything to her and she’ll be like ‘okay let’s go’ #she’s never read Jane Austen and it shows. but that’s okay because she’s the character in an Austen novel #she has no sense of self-preservation she has no common sense when it comes to love #and the reason I have endless patience for that is because she IS different. she is extraordinary. she is WEIRD. she’s so needy #so angry so fragile so stupid so brilliant so completely helpless #like the bolter———I can’t even LOOK at it right now #because you know she was like this since she was 5 and SHE knows it #just so. Different. so strange. I mean she ruled her family with an iron fist from the age of 11 #and her packaging is so basic and she she had so much access to everything anyone could want #so there are none of the usual marks of someone being so Different #but like. people HATED her from day one. you know her own strength of personality was drawing out many people’s hatred or envy #and she’s so helpless in her own personality because she can never change #like thank you aimee? or whatever? heck yeah there was some girl who bullied her and brutalized her on the playground #and you know it devastated Taylor from day one and still does #and it’s just. I don’t know how people can’t see that someone with that extraordinary set of gifts #wouldn’t also suffer in such an extraordinary way #and ways that elicit so much scorn and non-sympathy because people are unsettled and jealous and annoyed by her #because she WILL find a way to win #but isn’t that proof enough that she is the very OPPOSITE OF NORMAL #it’s why people have to be like ‘oh she sold her soul to the devil for this success.’ or whatever the psy-op spy thing is #because there’s no human way to explain her success if she really were as basic/talentless as people say #ugh this is all so incoherent and irritating and I’m so sorry but I just. I cannot explain how protective my heart is of her #and all the many many mistakes she’s made and the prisons she’s made for herself because she’s LIVING the tragedy #of never having denied herself one time/getting everything she wants #and discovering the poison at the bottom of everything she reached for with desperate hands #like. I love her so much and I am so protective of her because she is so helpless and she is getting shot in the face every time #and she feels every blow! #whew I need to turn off reblogs and will probably delete but I just #this album is all of her spilled out and people DO hate to see it because a lot of people hate her!!!!

Yandere Guilliman has my brain firing-

After transferring you directly into his service (you were surprised, but mostly elated that you had done exceptional enough work to ascend this far in the ranks of the Historico Verita.) Guilliman started to woo you.

It was subtle, and a terrible part of him wondered why he bothered. You couldn't refuse an order from him, after all, if he told you that you'd be retiring from your position to be his spouse, so it would be.

But you'd probably hate him for it, deep down. He wanted to ask you.

So it started with the gifts.

You were pouring over a set of ancient tomes when a servitor delivered the basket of fruit. It was expensive stuff, and you couldn't for the life of you figure out who sent it. It couldn't be Lord Guilliman, of course. That would be ridiculous. Had you forgotten your birthday?

A week later, a new set of robes was left in your chamber, heavy, rich, gold trimmed, and Ultramarine blue. You had assumed they were being given to all your fellow- no. Just you. Hmm.

The new journal, a week after that, with paper like silk, and a set of new, perfectly balanced pens. This made sense, you needed such tools for your work, and yet, something about the beauty of the pieces was... Sentimental. Whoever your secret admirer was, you couldn't afford the distraction. You couldn't fail Lord Guilliman, not after he favored you so.

They kept coming. A set of jeweled hair pins, a blanket so soft you thought it was made of clouds, a bottle of alcohol you'd been known to favor, each accompanied by a small bouquet of flowers. Your room has started to look like a hot house.

You had begun a list of potential senders. You had eliminated all of your fellow historians, none of them had the resources, or were close enough to you to develop what was clearly an intense feeling. You had also eliminated all of the Ultramarines with which you worked. They weren't allowed relationships. You had eliminated the rouge traders, nobles of Terra, and millitary personal with whom you'd had contact. That left... No one. You'd exhausted your list and were no closer to an answer.

Unless...

Oh Throne.

The memory rushed to the forefront of your mind. The night had been late, but you refused to budge from your desk until your translation was completed. This was the only original account any of you had found of the preservation of tech after Old Night, and it was intact. You couldn't stop-

The door opened. You continued to write, hovering over the ancient dictionary.

"It's very late, historitor."

The scratching of your pen stopped, the voice of the Lord Commander was unmistakable. You stood and bowed. "My Lord, I've been translating, I'm close to a breakthrough."

"You need to rest. You'll be of no use half dead from exhaustion. Come, I'll walk you to your chamber." He turned, his massive from towering over you as you scrambled behind him.

Most of the walk was spent with you excitedly updating him on your progress, he looked down at you, some kind of unreadable expression on your face. You had known him long enough to know it was a schooled neutral. A mask meant to hide intention and feeling.

When you reached your chamber door you turned to him. "Thank you, my Lord, for walking me back, I'm sure you're busy."

"Not at all. It's my pleasure, truly." He smiled at you, by Terra the man smiled at you. A strange day indeed.

There was an almost tense moment between you, your gazes meeting, his almost burning through you. You saw a flash of conflicted emotion across his face, so fast that in the dim light you probably imagined it.

He reached down, pulled your hand against his face, pressed a soft kiss to the back of it, then turned away and he was gone.

You closed the door, befuddled completely, and wandered to your bed.

Two weeks later, you kicked yourself for not seeing it sooner. A tome on the culture of Macragge lay in front of you, and you couldn't breathe.

Those were courtship gifts.

You were running down the hallway faster than you could curb yourself, brushing past guards and servants and probably some nobles you shouldn't anger and Marines and you're making a mistake a mistake that's not what it meant you couldn't possibly think he'd even look twice at you but every time you were in a room together he brushed past you he smiled at you did smile at anyone else he even asked if you had family and where they were by the Throne was he going to ask-

You nearly collided with his office door. You hesitated, barely, before knocking.

"Enter."

You looked at him, sitting at his desk, scratching away at a set of documents.

"Lord Guilliman?"

At the sound of your voice the scratching stopped and he looked up. The doors closed behind you.

"Are you well, historitor? You're flushed."

"Yes, uh, I've been running."

He stood from his desk, "Has something happened?"

"N-no." Yes.

"I don't enjoy being lied to." His tone darkened and a primal panic welled up within you. "What happened?"

You attempted to calm your racing heart. You wondered if he could hear it pounding in your chest. Probably.

"Was it you? All the gifts?"

He paused. There's that unreadable expression again. "Yes."

"W-why?"

He chuckled. "You are a brilliant historitor. One of my very best." He cupped your face in his hands and tilted it up, looking down at you tenderly. "But dear, you're terribly unobservant."

(Guilliman is brilliant but so bad at relationships. Also this is on mobile and not proof read we die like men)

Now, hear me out... BUT! but avatrice tangled au

I am seeing the vision but I am also confusing myself with it. Because like I feel like there's an argument to be made for both Ava and Beatrice potentially being Rapunzel, but I don't see present-day Beatrice as Eugene -- UNLESS she starts off as her typical stoic self and only after being around Ava for a little bit does she begin to open up more. No okay nevermind I am seeing the vision.

....Can J.C. be the horse? I think that'd be funny. I am also assuming that in this AU, Mother Superion and Jillian are the Queens+Ava's mothers.

let’s go to the rainbow village ( ˆô )/ i’m currently on chapter 10 of @rainbowvillage-diningbar​’s fic, ‘in another life’, and i’m sooo captivated by the writing style! i just hope okuyasu ends up less lonely :,)

(based on the pose of this photo and the vibes from some stone ocean illustrations)

**[ID:** This is a digital drawing of Nijimura Okuyasu, drawn in warm colors against a cold background with butterflies, the kanji for his last name, and the vortex caused by Made in Heaven. Okuyasu holds one arm over his head while he extends the other upwards, gazing directly at the viewer with a worried expression and some tears in his eyes. Nevertheless, a rainbow shines on the left and a diamond butterfly rests on top of his heart. **End ID]**

#my art #nijimura okuyasu #rainbow village #i REALLY am so intrigued by the sheer possibilities of this timeline and how it really feels we're in this with okuyasu.... amazing really #i started this like... saturday? and i rearranged my week to make this..... i feel so inspired!! #and i got to use rainbows and butterflies! also op... the name of okuyasu's place... BRILLIANT!! #anyways back to the tags:)) #jojo #jjba #jojo fanart #jjba fanart #okuyasu fanart #okuyasu #fic rec #made in heaven
