Wrestling will always be my favorite BL show, actually.

#njpw #yoh #sho #I miss when they were boyfriends #I've used that tag for them #and it seems Yoh has also missed when they were boyfriends #yes I know this was so he couldn't get the whiskey blown in his face but like #I wasn't expecting him to just grab Sho kiss and tackle him #there was no need for that #there was no need for Yoh to close his eyes #there was no need for Yoh to grab Sho's hair and neck and head #but he did it #he did it for me specifically #my boy Yoh

Inej bout throw her bouquet and Kaz walks over and stops her and he takes the bouquet and goes to throw it into the crowd only for it to burst into a murder of crows and when they fly off everyone looks over to the stage and Kanej is just gone because magician Kaz holds a special place in my heart and deserves to have his place in their wedding

You know I always did like the idea of Ochako being willing to give Toga her blood freely as a gesture of wanting to allow Toga some form of validation in herself and her Quirk, because that was what she was MISSING her whole life and drove her down the dark path she took...I always thought it was a very poignant and poetic option for their relationship, and like YES offering her friendship was always gonna happen, but for it to ALSO go with ochako literally allowing Toga access to her blood to satisfy her Quirk?

And THEN IT HAPPENED ?!?

And ochako said "for eternity" if Toga wanted?? Like GURL

#togachako is winning rn #togachako #i kind of wonder hwat ELSE hori has in store in light of this #i thought it might have been too much? or something? for thr blood thkng to come up? #but HE DID IT #bnha spoilers #lets go lesbians

he’s very very sad because I asked him to sit on this uneven rock 

#he was already standing on it when i asked #and he really didn't have to do it #like i would not have pursued this lol #but he did it #and then cursed me for it #and told me i was the source of his depressoin #heck #depression* #henry #dogs

My favorite joke in s2 that absolutely no one cares about is when Willy first shows up and is talking about how cool Scary is, he says that he struggles with empathy and emotion and thinks Scary being able to,,,,have emotions(????) is like having a superpower and like, Willy's neurodivergent ass flipping that passive aggressive "ur disability is a superpower!!!" bullshit on its head and claiming that someone being able to experience basic empathy makes them "special!!!" and "unique!!". Thats genuinely so funny to me and a fun look into incorrect mindset that he has lol

#the sad thing is that with npd it was actually kinda a big deal that he admits fault #its truly nothing and the bar is currently clipping through the floor #but he did it #shout out to willy for being trapped in a void prison and coming to understand his own neurotype and disorders #coming to the conclusion that yea he did mess up and he could've been better #and maybe he shouldn't have done all that spooky magic garbage he did #and then he immediately is like #but nah this time will be different #my selfish drive for power is ok now cuz im self aware when im manipulating and hurting children #no no listen its satire✨ #i hate him #but i love him #Anthony always brings it when it comes to hot mean dads #dungeons and daddies #dungeons and daddies s2 #dnddads #dungeons and daddies s2 spoilers #willy stampler

#i just want to appreciate for a moment #that the winter soldier put steve in the HOSPITAL #that's hard to do #but he did it #and also #he's THE most terrifying villain they've faced to date imo #because everyone did everything RIGHT #and still- #well #thanos was pretty scary #but the threat never felt REAL yknow #like you knew the stones still existed (until they didn't) and #they could prolly just undo everything by getting them back (which they did) #but everything with tws #felt inevitable #terrifying #the threat was certainly more believable and palpable #this kinda stuff goes on every day and we don't know about it #but phew anyways #all this to say #that tws stepping to the side to avoid a burning vehicle #is the hottest shit i've ever seen in my LIFE

To me, this is one of the best scenes in the Hobbit series. How he broke out of something that was within him, something that was hereditary. To break out of such a sickness takes quite alot, some may never get out of it. But, Thorin did. When he woke up from this madness, he went on to become an even greater hero than before. He did what he was destined to do. This is one of the main reasons I love Thorin. What an awesome character ❤️

#thorin oakenshield #wow #he really broke out #took so much #but he did it #how honourable #the hobbit #richard armitage #king under the mountain #dwarf #awesome #thorin #lovely #Bafta

[unohanadaydreams]

Realized I forgot to post the rest of my ramblings on the Mayuri vs Pernida fight from my manga re-read so here is some prime word salad about Mayuri, my beloved idiot.

This feels little too late. Like, Mayuri has really dropped the ball in this battle by disregarding his initial thought regarding the Soul King’s arm being a Quincy.

He should have known already that this ability to evolve involved absorption, something Quincy are notorious for. And what has been all over everything, that would allow this Quincy to absorb?

It feels comical, how much he’s neglected to think about his opponent. Like, I’m a dumb ass and I’ve cobbled together the answer.

Meat ball again, eh.

But see the difference in tone? With Zaraki, Mayuri was so elated to tell him the dangers. He was purely farcical about how dropping Zaraki made him feel.

With Nemu it’s different. We see, again, him lashing out and displaying his frustration with himself. But deflecting that frustration to Nemu. Nemu is the punching bag instead of himself. She is him, but better. Perfect. So she needs to shape up and act like it.

The genius of Nemu is that she evolved DESPITE Mayuri. He demands she does exactly as she’s told and he violently lashes out when she doesn’t. He steals her agency. (even when it's played for laughs his unrelenting closeness when she's a member of WA is really telling).

That isn’t how someone grows and he knows that perfectly well. But he won’t face the fact that he’s scared to lose her. So he pretends disobedience betrays weakness.

Nemu has been taught how to learn and observe and she is the reason Mayuri will live—because she saw Pernida for what he was. Like, despite Mayuri's treatment of her, she is able to understand what's going on before he does.

She's not suffering from delusions here. She's not grasping for something that isn't there. Pernida is a Quincy and Nemu isn't perfect. And Mayuri is fucking spiraling on the battlefield.

And here it is—he does not want to make another Nemu. Even if it goes against the very principles of trial and error, of the science he holds so dear. Of the concept of evolution itself. Mayuri doesn’t care if Nemu never gets any smarter or more powerful—he doesn’t give a shit if she’s a shinigami—he just wants her to live. And he refuses to engage with that. He will never admit it.

He cares SO MUCH about her and what she represents that the prospect of having to start over again and fail again is crushing. He can not STAND having this much emotional attachment toward something. It's not irrational in a fun way, its irrational in a way that betrays his values.

He loves a living, breathing person enough to betray the values he's built his entire life & pride & fulfillment on.

Also really love the blocking of this--he is literally refusing to face Nemu.

Doubt. So much doubt. She's switching up her answer on why she interfered to be more agreeable to Mayuri. She is molding her answer to what Mayuri needs to hear and not the truth.

She already said he needed a shield but now she’s walked it back and actually, she was just trying to get him what he needed to continue the fight on his own.

Nemu isn't lying but she isn't telling the truth. She's just being what Mayuri wants her to be. Which is someone who protects him.

Uuuuh like father like daughter, you fucking shit. But also I think this is Mayuri's way of changing the subject and diffusing the situation. Of course his idea of diffusing is to put her down, but we can't expect anything emotionally mature from a man who has a melt down every time he approaches the thought that he loves Nemu on a human level.

Oh so when Pernida sounds like Kenpachi, he starts to catch what’s going on????? But he hasn’t caught on to the constant mirroring of his own fucking mannerisms????

He's fried his own brain with the elation of discovery and the intoxication of his own ego. I can't think of any other reason why he's been SO slow to catch on to what's going on.

I fully understand what was being attempted with this battle. At once it's supposed to connect Pernida & Nemu as being of rapid evolution while also taking Mayuri down a notch in terms of his intellect ala his battle with Szayel. His "perfect" invention destroyed by a more "perfect" being of evolution. His fall to hubris and self delusion. His perfect tragedy.

But it just kind of feels kind of unbelievable how fully he's misunderstood Pernida. I know he feels like he knows most if not everything about Quincy at the start of Bleach, but you think he would carry the lesson of being defeated by Uryu and go 'there's probably something here I need to look out for'

BUT HE HASN'T EVEN GOTTEN TO THE WHOLE PERNIDA IS A QUINCY THING.

You would just think he would catch on even a teenie weenie bit sooner.

I wonder what Mayuri’s zanpakuto looked like before. I imagine probably older looking, which doesn’t fit with Mayuri’s theme of control and always knowing more. Nothing better than a baby who can do nothing but fucking scream and vomit poison.

But also, I really, really like how they're pointing out all the ways that the technology that made Nemu was appropriated for other projects. Not only does it show the passion that went into the Nemuri project but also that they were finding any way possible to CONTINUE that project. Yes number 4 & 5 were failures, but they deserve to have and need more funding because they can regrow brains and skulls and alter zanpakuto. They were doing anything and everything with the research so they could keep it going. Which, considering the amount of abandoned or axed lines of research we hear about, feels meaningful.

And with this time line, I wonder if Senjumaru really was captain for a short while before Mayuri took over. It would make a lot of sense, as I can’t imagine they left 12th division without a captain from the time Urahara left to Mayuri taking up the same double helm. Personally counting this as a headcanon that can be solidified as may-as-well-be canon. They snark at each other for a reason <3

Akon gives his take, but to me the answer is simple and also embarrassing for Mayuri so he would never ever say it.

He starts calling her Nemu because he doesn’t plan to make another Nemuri. He no longer considers her no.7 but simply THE Nemu.

As I was saying above, he doesn’t want to make another one—he’s very insulted at the idea that he would need to. He’s scared of trying and failing again because the experiment and by extension her existence mean so much to him now. This is the technology that gave him captaincy, purpose, and fulfillment. This was his greatest wish. I’m willing to bet this is part of what landed him in the Maggot’s Nest before Urahara hoisted him into a position of power.

Of course, he never displays these feelings how you traditionally would. Instead he treats her as weak and over reliant and is hyper sensitive when she worries for her own life—because those are his feelings regarding her and if there’s one thing he’s going to do, it’s project!

Mayuri needs someone to protect him from himself at this point. He has blinded himself to how Nemu is still no.7. There were Nemuris before her and there will probably be more after her.

She grows despite Mayuri’s attempts to stall her—to keep her alive at all costs isn't what he's meant to do and she knows that. She's meant to evolve or die trying. But more than that, she has read between the lines and understands fully that just like Jizo, her goal is to protect Mayuri. He is his own worst enemy and right now she's protecting him from his refusal to see Pernida for what it is—something he’s studied tirelessly, much as he bragged to Uryu.

She loves Mayuri and wants to make him proud. She wants him to see that she’s grown and that she has become all the things he wanted of her. First and foremost, a shinigami. And shinigami battle. And they die.

And when you fall asleep, you have to wake up. Her name is Nemuri.

I love her. She is much more human than Mayuri may ever be.

#I love Nemu because you can see all the things she had the potential to be #and you realize that Mayuri squashed all that potential #and he did it out of fear #he did it out of love #but he DID it #and I think that is what is first and foremost mellows him out with Nemuri after Nemu dies #It's not that he lost. It's not that she died even. #it's that she died protecting him. it's that she was convinced that was her purposes #it's that he fucked up his dream so badly and couldn't face it until he had nothing left but a brain #anyway here is whatever this is

Siblingverse anon (the one who's the catalyst) here! I love everything you've said so far! I have three questions: Since you said a child can beat up Spandam, was the real reason Lucci not stopping Chimney because he wanted to see that happen? Does Lucci threaten to finish what Robin started (take Franky's balls off) before the Straw Hats leave Water 7? You know, the whole "if you hurt her" speech. Does Kaku or Kalifa tell the other three "Also, Lucci has a brother-in-law, and a future husband?"

1: at least in this universe, it absolutely is. he thinks chimney is fully capable of beating spandam up and that it would be one of the best things to see and he wants a front row seat. granny kokoro might kick his ass after for letting chimney into danger but, like. it's spandam. the only dangerous thing about him is his sword and he can't aim for shit.

2: he does not, because he is well aware of how vicious robin can be. she was already bad when they were kids and he knows she hasn't gotten any nicer since then. if she wanted to take franky's balls off, she would.

3: lucci's shovel talk for franky consists of him looking franky dead in the eye and saying, "if you hurt her, i won't have to do anything, because you'll already be dead." as far as he's concerned, robin is the one to be scared of there. (robin, of course, just smiles and talks about things like human sacrifices and how embalming a living person would work around paulie. paulie is suitably terrified.)

4: if you think canonical gossip fukurou doesn't get kaku or kalifa to tell him about what he missed in water 7, think again. there is currently a betting pool going about whether or not lucci and paulie will get their shit together before or after luffy's become the pirate king and the world government's fallen apart. robin has placed down a very specific bet of one year, six months and five days that makes everyone question what the hell she knows. (technically, she knows nothing. this does not stop her from absolutely fucking with the rest of the betting pool, though.)

#fun fact about this verse: when pissed off lucci is the nicer nico sibling #lucci insists robin is terrifying. nobody else believes him until post-marineford where she sees the news and that he was involved #and Goes Off #hell hath no fury like a panicked older sibling #fyi the one who wins the bet on them getting together is actually lulu #nobody knows how the hell he got so close (off by only one day) #but he did it #paulie is an intelligent enough person to know that his not-boyfriend's sister is the scariest person on that ship #i do genuinely love fukurou being a gossip in canon btw it's delightful #so i fully intend to have s o much fun with it #sibling verse

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week
