I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before

I put my lips to the hands of the man who killed my son

#deltarune #gaster #deltarune player #i love still headcanoning gaster as sans and papyrus's dad despite knowing that he saw everything that happened in undertale (including #the no mercy route) and seeing how friendly he is with us in deltarune #you would think he'd hate us and want do nothing to do with us or to hurt us but. he wants to create a new future with us. #he thinks that our search for him is a wonderful thing. he thinks we created a wonderful form. hes thankful for our time. #knowing this while still believing he's the father of characters we've killed makes him such an interesting character #we know he's tied to undertale so regardless of if he's actually their dad or not we have hurt people he knows #and he still treats us with so much care #i love this guy. i wanna know him already #this was fully inspired by a gorgeous drawing by WolfyTheWitch on twitter #of. actual priam jskdjdk #this was drawn using my poor poor pilot pens during classes over three days. i need to buy new ones now lol #i need to use this technique more often #its super time consuming but it looks so cool. and the paper has such an interesting texture now :]]] #i also LOVE drawing gasters hands all melting and barely even like hands #and brown paper packages tied up with string #my art #*i edited this a bit in digital i forgot to mention that gdjdjfk

Ares? Hephaestus? God of War? God of Machines? Please. Put some respect on their names. That's Mr. Frank's Dad and Mr. Charles and Leo's Dad to you, thank you very much.

#pjo #pjo series #pjo tv show #the entire time Ares was on screen i was either thinking 'PUNCH HIM PERCY' #or 'thats franks dad! thats his dad!!!.... poor dude :(' #and whenever Hephaestus was on screen i was all 'LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO! THE FATHER OF CHAMPIONS' #'LEO AND CHARLES DAD IN THE HOUSE!!!! THIS MAN MAKES MACHINES AND HEROES ONLY NOTHING ELSE' #'Hephaestus god of building? more like Hephaestus god of fathering the most badass and loveable demigod sons' #i was a leo fan what can i say. he charmed me with his negative riz and short king energy #im a huge fan of how he spontaneously combusts and can't sit still for more than a second and writes 'cool guy' on his own arm in sharpie #and Charles. what can i even say about him. he was like THE guy. the quintessential boyfriend guy. you think responsible you think him #you think caring you think him. you think lovable you think him. Oh Charles. he is the Romeo of this series but only in metaphor because #hes way better than Romeo. he doesn't lust after 14 y/os and stuff #anyway this show is making me insane

If you're a trans guy and you feel like you're not manly enough and are ashamed of the what is considered "girly" traits, toxic masculinity isn't exclusive to cis guys, and it can and will have devastating effects on your mental health, you're perfect the way you are and you don't need to prove your masculinity to anyone, and that includes yourself, because you're not just a floating consciousness in the earthly soup you're also someone and anyone.

#trans #trans masc #mostly speaking from my experience of trying to live as a manly man #i used to compensate and try to show how manly i am #and i grew a big beard #and pretended to be a tough guy #and that went on for a year or two #and it was the most miserable time of all time #i realized that i am no man #i am a trans woman and i am more than happy to be that when i realized how stupid and contrived it is to be proving im a guy #in my opinion a guy does whatever they want without caring what others think #you wanna be a quirky silly guy with weird interests #i promise you its okay #to be into flowers #or makeup #or dresses and sewing and other typically feminine things to do #i picked up knitting back when i still was a guy #and i felt at peace #my dad would scoff at me over it #but i just felt like i was such a cool guy back then #like he cant tell me anything because i am the guy i wanna be and i dont have to make excuses #well later it turned out i was a transgirl but dont think trans girls dont struggle with leftover toxic masculinity in them #its ok #love yourself #youre a perfectly normal guy and you do your thing you really dont need to worry about it

just remembered a wip i had which was jay at uni meeting normal people and desperately trying to act cool and normal whilst internally screaming about being in a whole new place with all new people and not having his gang with him

#i only wrote one scene where jay meets one of his flatmates #and he’s trying to make casual normal conversation & asks her who her parents are #bc that has always mattered! on the isle or at auradon prep your parentage was also a Conversation Starter #and the girl is just like ……what. why do you want to know that #but she tells him and jay makes it into a joke like hehe oh yes i met them at a soirée once. amazing company #and the girl is like ok who are YOUR parents. knowing full well who he is #and jay says that his dad fosters puppies. and the girl says that sounds like a good life and he’s like ohhh just the BEST #i really. love exploring jay at uni i’ve written a couple of things i’ve never finished #like!!! for the first time for years he’s well and truly all alone!!!! #and at least the isle & ap had similarities. uni is just full of very normal people who don’t particularly give a shit #and jay who is like THE guy who cares about everything so much all the time and how people are reacting to him and he’s desperately trying+ #to be so cool and unbothered whilst trying not to revert to his isle tactics regarding people who may be threats #just. being somewhere so so new. with no one he knows. everyone else is so far away. and jay is missing his gang like he’d miss+ #his body parts. and it’s like. jays always buried his own emotions & hurt so he can better protect his gang #and now he has no gang to protect #and he is just laid absolutely bare. and also constantly stressing about not being there for the others #i just think he’d have an absolutely awful start to uni <3 #descendants #jay son of jafar

“Jason’s so rebellious”, “he’s the problem child” bro is NOT. He THINKS he is. But if anything he’s the kiss ass child trying to seem cool and rebellious. He’ll blow up a building and immediately be like “did Bruce see that?” “Did he see how rebellious I am??” “What’d he say???”. Rebellious my ass.

#He’s not really the cool antihero the fandom and even some comics claim he is #When dick rebelled he cut off Bruce however he could to be with the titans #not a expert on Tim but I think he did something similar or at least did the basic #Spray paint and skateboarding type of rebellion #But no Jason has some dumbass ideology which just happens to clash perfectly with his dads #And also gives him room to monologue about how he has daddy issues #(He doesn’t) #(At least not from Bruce) #All he does is care what Bruce thinks #In a strange filial version of the girl asking if the guy she’s “not into” mentioned her #And no I don’t think Bruce’s moral code is good #But people claiming Jason’s is better don’t understand that #“I just kill bad people” #Isn’t a sustainable solution #And can be heavily influenced by personal biases #Jason todd #i guess it’s kinda #anti jason todd #batman #red hood #dc comics

Girl is the daughter to some famous guy and he loves her so so so so so so much and doesn't want her to be involved in fame and scandals. So he hires a bodyguard for her so that she can have some freedom and also NOT be seen with him. And bodyguard is just super chill with the man's gushing and doesn't originally try super hard to befriend the girl. It's a job and he just needs her safe and outta the spotlight.

It's going pretty well and is all fine until his friend shows up. Who looks really angy. And glares a lot. So she assumes this friend is just a punk and the bodyguard is like "oh he's nice. he just looks like that when he's nervous."

So when the bodyguard is like "ok i gotta go talk with your dad meaning I can't walk with you to school but I got permission to let my friend walk with you" and she's like okay. I understand. I'm resigned to my fate of never being independent. And then when the guy is like "I need proof or your dad will kill me" and she agrees, HE BEAMS BECAUSE HE GETS TO LIVE ANOTHER DAY. And he shows her the picture and is like "before I send it, this okay with you?" and she nods. She's never seen him smile like that. Huh.

And now the girl has her very loving dad, her loving mom, her protective and kind bodyguard and his weird (boy)friend. And so she has two separate groups of people that love her and she's really happy.

#my bodyguard isnt my dad #since her classmates never see her dad and only see her with the bg they just are like #your dad is really protective huh and shes like oh yeah 100% not know the misunderstanding #and then later her classmates ask her if her dads gay and shes like no??? and doesnt know what else to say #because her dad loves her mom its a really happy married couple wtf #they dont even KNOW her dad ???? #then one is like oh yeah i saw that pink haired guy with him again tho they were buying dinner from a convenience store #and shes like OH YOU MEAN HIM no oh no thats.................. hes more like an uncle ? #and the classmates are like OH OK COOL and then it drops cause they dont care about a gay uncle #the gay dad is the drama topic #so she informs her bg that her classmates think hes gay and the two hear cackling from another room #and bg has to be like OH SHUT IT THIS IS YOUR FAULT BY THE WAY YOURE INVOLVED HERE BY BEING MY FAKE BF #and hes like WOW NOT THE FIRST TIME IVE BEEN ACCUSED OF THIS

generally beginning to realize that most people who thirst for the jjk men are doing so incorrectly and for the wrong reasons like just making up a generic archetype of a really cool hot guy from those het smutty self published amazon novels and pretending theyre the jjk dudes. when you can say anything about gege akutami but he gave us such a diverse & fascinating cast of hot dudes who are losers in such specific and different ways but always so devastatingly that none of them get any hole whatsoever

#like gojo is this hot super strong unflappable cool guy but he only had 1 friend who tolerated him bc they were both the most insufferable #guy around and ever since he died he’s been annoying hapless teenagers who cant do anything about his obnoxious presence and thats his #whole social life. #toji is a badass action hero who also in his head has the Action Man backstory of yes i may have been a shitty deadbeat dad… but i did it… #to Protect My Family😤 but his legacy is that megumi doesn’t remember or think about his and when he does its ‘oh yea that loser’ and also #as previously mentioned his only employable skill is Can Cut Down Big Monsters; Fast and he looks like he uses dish soap on his hair #sukuna would be the closest to the idealized hot powerful guy image at least if ur a monsterfucker which i know many of us in the lgbt #community are. but he’s also an apocalyptic maneating entity who’s tied to the whims of a chaotically good teenager who would eat an entire #jar of mayo on a dare and summon him to ask for an opinion on his new hair dye. #which is both a hysterical premise that should be used more in fanart/fic for comedy AND profoundly pathetic on his part. #only exception to all this is nanami but thats bc he is textually canonically there to offset the swagless vibes of the main adult cast esp #gojo with his dignified huge dick energy. #to be clear i dont profoundly care about any of this like i think its funny im not mad about it . but as a known pathetic guy desirer i had #to say my piece #personal #jjk

spending my whole life trying and trying and trying and trying to be good enough for people who don't give a fuck about me

#im so tired living seems pointless why am i doing this what is the reason #the firm i work at is going thru a merger so it's releasing all the interns except 2 #i went into her office and said that id like to stay here bc my dad said so bc i got in cause he was friends with the head #and she said ill think about it based on performance ive not decided yet #and this other guy he went in to tell her that cool he'll leave and she told him that she was hoping that he'd stay #he literally does nothing but play games on his phone he doesn't work at all #i have no idea what he has that i don't #but just. im stuck like this forever right never ever good enough for people i like or care about #not for parents they have a diff fav child not for ex gf not for bestie who has a boyfriend much better at loving her than me #not for that one guy who rejected me in interview bc i don't read the newspaper and didn't know the date of the finance act #im so fucking sick of this i never even wanted to this fuckinh course and obviously even my best isn't enough and ofc im not good enough #for anyone in this field and ill just struggle and struggle and struggle all my life just to earn some fucking money so i can live away #from my sociopathic parents #and the worst part is that i can't stop feeling like maybe it IS me yk maybe i am the problem maybe im not trying hard enough #but how else am i supposed to handle this i prioritize my studies and lose all my friends i prioritise my friends and fail in d #exams #and the trauma keeps on coming every fucking day bc sociopathic parents but i jsut push it down and say not rn i will cry at night anx then #never cry #i wish someone would just tell me that idk you're wrong you're not made for this you really do have some mental illness and you're really #trying your best and do something that's easy and that you love doing #oh god this is now a ventpost #mes

Thinking about how Lincoln and Chris are both SUPER jealous people. Love them but that must’ve been a crazy marriage lmaoo

#literally the only thing we know about Chris is that they were jealous at the idea of Link EVER remarrying 😭 #and Link was soooo jealous of anything that got his dads’ attention as a kid #LIKE. he hates the number 4 merely for the idea of his dads having another kid lmao #they can’t have any hobbies than Link doesn’t also have (trains and dance classes lol) #he made them get rid of their cat #he gave fucking LAXATIVES to the other homeschool kids 😭😭😭😭😭 #at least he doesn’t seem to be that way with anyone but his parents…? #this was prompted by me relistening to S2E5 btw #when Scary says she’s going to the dance with someone else #and Link quickly goes from being like ‘oh yeah it’s chill we’re just going as friends’ #to ‘you have a date now? that’s cool whatever I totally don’t care’ etc. hehwhaha #so I think Lincoln is probably just as jealous with other people he loves (his friends spouses etc) but he’s just more subtle about it #WELL. not subtle lol. but he TRIES to be subtle at least 😭❤️ love him #anyway this is so… ignore this #just rambling about my guys 🫶 #chalcy stuff

Something that makes reading TOA so devastating is how fucking much Apollo feels about Everything. There’s so MUCH. Like I don’t even know how to describe it to you if you haven’t read the books yourself. He has so many complicated thoughts and emotions about just about everything and he cares about everything so much and there is just SO MUCH going on in his head. And yet none of it ever reaches his mouth!!

He almost never says what he’s feeling. What little comes out of his mouth about his thoughts barely even scratches the surface of what he actually means. Like he’ll be having a long ass monologue about how incredible someone is, showing a deep understanding of them as a person and empathizing with them so hard you’d almost think it’s projection but it’s not he’s legitimately just mind melding with this random person he met like a week ago and he’s thinking the softest, kindest thoughts about them like he knows they’re fucking incredible - and what comes out of his mouth is just like, “you’re a wonderful friend :)” AND ITS LIKE. THERES SO MUCH MORE UNDER THE SURFACE. the sheer admiration and adoration he has for everyone around him……… UGHHH!!! But he never VOICES ANY OF IT!!!!!! He never tells anyone about what Zeus did to him……. He never tells anyone except the reader about his realization that Zeus is abusive…. He never even tells commodus about how much he adored him, not then and not now… he refuses to tell anyone when he’s in pain or tries to justify the things he does when he actually had Decent Reasons for why he did something… I’m. I’M. AUGH. AHHHHH

HE DOESN’T EVEN TELL US ALL OF HIS THOUGHTS IS THE THING. THERES EVEN MORE THAT HE IS NOT TELLING US!!!!! THE FUCKING OCEAN OF FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS HE HAS ABOUT EVERYTHING IS THE CLIFF NOTES VERSION. I AM IN DISTRESS.

And YET…. Even what slips out of his mouth is so fucking devastating it is SO devastating. He’s so fucking kind and gentle with Harley and Meg and and other younger Demis and his kids… he’ll act like an obstinate idiot and then turn around say something that drags the core of the person he’s talking to into the light like nail on the fucking HEAD like he reached into their soul and gave them the words to express something that they were struggling to say aloud or that they didn’t even realize about themself. Around the 2nd book he starts putting voice to some of his feelings and thoughts about others and even that tiny fucking sliver is overwhelming to the people he’s talking to bc he’s SO. AUGHHHH

#this is why ‘reading the TOA books’ fics fucking slap btw. because as embarrassing as his thoughts can be #so many of them are just incoherent screaming about how he loves everyone around him. devastating #like imagine helping out ur loser deadbeat dad who you don’t really know much about bc he’s flighty and hard to read #and finding out ‘wow he cares about us a lot more than I thought’ #bc he literally almost dies to save you/your siblings and keeps following you all around everywhere #but he’s still like. your weirdo absentee dad. u don’t know hardly anything new about him other than an apparent suicidal streak #and then u find out that the whole time he was whining about chicken nuggets or whatever he was internally sobbing abt how much he loves u #and every time u were nearby he was going ‘MY BEAUTIFUL PERFECT BABY… JUST AS INCREDIBLE AS THEIR MORTAL PARENT!!!! BEAUTIFUL LIKE THE SUN! #HOW DID I EVEN MAKE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PERFECT BABY. UNREAL. THEY CANT BE MINE!? BUT THEY ARE!!! LOOK AT THEMMM!!?!!! IM SO PROUD…… #my beautiful perfect angels… all of their parents best traits and none of our worst…. I am Barely restraining myself from sobbing #i would give u the WORLD if my father wouldn’t kill me for it :(‘ #and it’s like. wow. okay dad. um. would have been nice to know that when we were all dying in The War #Please Hug Me Though. #imagine being a Random Ass Demigod who didn’t go on a big special quest or something like you are literally just Some Guy #and finding out that this weirdo loser god u gave a sandwhich to or something thinks you are so fucking cool #your own parent doesn’t know ur name but Apollo knows u on sight and read ur soul within the 2 seconds yall talked and he thinks you rock #how are you supposed to respond to that. #snack time #toa #longpost

Animal Crossing? Found family group on a fishing trip! Are they gonna enjoy it?

Oh boy.... lmao

Thatcher: Isn't super stoked about fishing, but he's just happy to spend time with everyone. He's pretty good at fishing though because his Pa used to take him on trips at the beginning of seasons, it's just not something he's passionate about.

Dave: Fucking awful at fishing. Turns up in a 'fish fear me' shirt, which Mark is mortified of. Socks and sandals. Dad vibes off the charts, having so much fun getting to hang out with his nephew/godson. Doesn't catch a single fish and doesn't care at all. Just happy to be included!

Mark: Not very good at fishing, so Thatcher teaches him. Embarrassed of Dave but happy to see him. Probably gets bored after an hour or so. Also nearly his lost his shit when alt!Cesar fell into the water and didn't surface (alt!Cesar cannot swim but also doesn't need to breathe so he can't drown - Mark didn't know that when he jumped in and dragged the guy out lmao).

alt!Cesar: Thatcher teaches him to fish and he gets pretty good at it. Dave had to explain the fish needed to be gutted and cooked first before eating them (alternate instinct kicked in and he almost just started chomping the second he reeled one in). Fell in the water and couldn't understand why Mark and everyone else was freaking out about it until he realised that humans usually drown when they don't resurface. There was probably also at least one argument that ended with alt!Cesar shoving Mark into the water, too lmao

#hail true body au #mustang answers! #htb thatcher #htb dave #htb mark #htb alt!cesar #alt!cesar is absolutely clueless about some human things like fishing trips but he is trying his best #mark only loses his temper because he cares about this idiot of an alternate #thatcher is usually the one to break up the arguments before it ends with one of them getting shoved overboard again #dave is the cool uncle/dad guy who's just happy to be included lmao

I just read some Reddit post about a dad asking if he’s in the wrong for refusing to go buy his daughter pads because she got her period in the middle of the night and to just use the tampons they had on hand (she’s only 10) and they’d go to the store in the morning and I’m just like Dr. Doofenshmirtz would never

#my guy Heinz Doofenshmirtz would probably clean out a store’s entire supply of pads at 3 in the morning if Vanessa needed them #he could be in the middle of a fight with Perry and Vanessa would give him that ‘I just got my period’ signal and he’d be like: #‘hold that thought Perry the platypus I really need to go to the store for Vanessa. it’s an emergency’ #and Perry being a cool dude would be like ‘that’s chill man we can put this fight on hold. go take care of your daughter I can wait’ #best cartoon dads #tw: period talk #tw: periods #reddit #aita #phineas and ferb #dr. doofenshmirtz #vanessa doofenshmirtz

Random 3 am rant: the whole concept of a "pick me girl" is super (hetero)sexist and I wish it never became a thing... now some ppl are using it to call other people out for harmless if slightly pretentious things (and sometimes it's even used if they just happen to have a different opinion on something)

Like do people not realise that by looking down on "not like other girls" people and even verbally putting them down and dismissing things they do as being done just for attention from guys, you are yourself trying to assert your superiority and be "not like other girls". Even if someone does try to put down other women for no reason, you should want to help and understand them and not mock them lol (or at the very least you should be civil). Everyone should just go home to watch the Vivian and Elle scenes from legally blonde

#like for example.... a random article i saw online says that one thing pick me girls do is being vocal about not wearing makeup #maybe i'm loud about that because i'm gay and some women find the no makeup look hot???????? #+ coz i've had to grow up as someone who hates how lotion type stuff feels while having foundation pushed on me because its a societal norm #idk kskfkd i know the people who use pick me girl as an insult probably dont read my tumblr blog... xD #but in general it's annoying when people claim that a woman having different opinions just wants to be cool to guys #listen the only guys i care about impressing are gay musical actors old enough to be my dad osbglsjflsk #and even then i just want them to like my absolutely correct headcanons for their portrayal from the 1990s >:] #rant

[angelsdean]

sorry this is totally unprompted but just something i've been thinking abt and i will also preface this by saying this is just one interpretation and i am someone who loves to entertain many (often conflicting) interpretations of things ok anyways

so i really don't think john in the prequel being friends with carlos is indicative of not being homophobic, like at all. i totally get where ppl are coming from w/ that interpretation and also there really isn't anything explicitly in spn canon that says john would be homophobic however for me he just. is. there's just no world where he isn't in my personal canon. esp when you read into the metaphors abt the supernatural being representative of being Other and people on the fringes of society, and then do queer readings of that. but anyways, back to the my main point which is, i can't tell you how many times i've seen ppl (in my own family and outside of it) talk abt their "dear friend so-and-so who is gay" and they're totally fine with that ! and they love them! and "don't care what they do in the privacy of their own bedroom." and then in the next breath will parrot some stereotype abt gay people. and say something ignorant or derogatory. and when called out they insist they're not homophobic bc they love "so-and-so". but they also can't ever imagine that someone in their own family (esp their own child) could be anything other than straight. and i really think that's where prequel john falls. he's totally "fine and cool w/ it" as long as it doesn't directly affect him. but if it were one of his sons? no way. his kids just aren't like that.

#he'd be like. 'i had a buddy carlos who was queer. didn't change the fact that he was a damn good hunter' #and young dean thinks. ok. dad's cool with it. long as i'm a good hunter it doesn't matter. and he thinks maybe he could tell him #and then john sends him to burn the bones of those nuns. and maybe makes an insensitive comment abt them and dean shrinks in on himself #and this keeps happening over and over again. and maybe one day john catches dean with a guy. maybe it's lee. #and he tells him to cut that shit out bc dean's not like that. no son of his is like that. and again he doesn't care what lee does. #he's praised lee before for his fighting skills. he's a great hunter. but he won't be doing anything with *his* son etc etc #fuck john winchester #spn meta #spn prequel #vic.txt
