#either 13 or 12

[dirtytransmasc]

Tuk and Spider fighting about who’s older, while the rest of the siblings just watch and neytiri is also debating about it and jake is just being jake

spider: I'm older, I was 16 when I went into my coma, technically I'm 21, and the avatar was almost 14 when I got it

tuk: no I'm older (cause she said so) your clearly brain damaged to think so

neytiri, who needs spider to stay her baby forever: tuks older

Jake, clueless as to why they're fighting: well norm said- *continues to butcher anything and everything norm and max had said about how spider would continue to age*

spider, tuk, and Neytiri: shut up skawng

#spider is technically older #he can argue hes either still 16 or even that hes 21 #plus his avatar was 13 or 14 #tuk is only 11 or 12 #but try telling that to Neytiri #avatar 2 #avatar the way of water #spider socorro #miles spider socorro #miles socorro #spider te suli tsyeyk'itan #neytiri #tuk sully #jake sully #jake took this argument way to literally

hmmm not sure how i feel about this but i just counted and the only seasons that i could think of that didn't have either a dean death, very near death, or dean trying to find a way to kill himself were s4 and s8....

#in s7 i counted going to purgatory as a near death because technically he didn't die but he was thought to be dead for a year #s1 faith and s2 in my time of dying are near deaths #3 5 6 9 11 12 13 and 15 all had actual deaths #and s10 and s14 both had dean trying to find a way to die #so that just leaves s4 and s8 unless im forgetting something from those seasons too #this is one thing that makes me so mad about the ending they gave him. how are you going to take the dude who just spent 15 years either #dying or trying to die and then give him a “happy ending” where he dies???? it was honestly the least interesting ending they could have #given him #like jackles said when dean lives THAT will be good tv #cw dean's death #tw suicide

The crackship to "oh wait this is actually cute" pipeline is real and it took about 10 minutes to get there

#don't stay up til 4 in the morning sending CU memes kids #tbf I've always wanted to use that meme as inspo for a drawing #and it was my first time drawing Melvin! #i hate his hair #and i dont like shading Harold's hair either #but i think it turned out pretty good #remember how in my last CU art i said I'd only be here for a week? #yeah i lied. #theyre meant to be like 12 or 13 here #art #captain underpants #harold hutchins #melvin sneedly

13 not being particularly speechy is not bad writing. You may not like it. But it is not inherently bad. She’d rather pull teeth than declare her feelings in such a dramatic way because A) it’d involve talking about herself to actual other people and she has an image she’s Very intent on keeping up, and furthermore, B) she has No confidence in who she is, let alone what she’s feeling, and she’s also in denial Of some of those feelings she is having, so she sure isn’t gonna be declaring these things out loud. 

You don’t have to like it, but it ain’t bad. It makes perfect sense for her character. If she started speechifying her opinions and feelings all the time it’d entirely contradict with the story being told and her characterisation. She gets toothy and loud when she’s losing control and Angry. In thirteen, her getting that far is generally a negative character moment for her. She’s passionate in her negativity first and foremost, to the point it’s kind of ugly (love That) to people she’s angry at.  

In terms of people she likes, she is also shown to be able to Talk to them respectfully, it’s awkward as shit and she’d rather not, but instead of festering till it bursts out she actually does Try and talk it out like actual people do because she’s aware it’s the decent thing to do to people she actually cares about. Not saying she’s good at it, but this is far better in terms of social skills And character growth for the character in general than the doctor just being somebody who goes for the dramatics all the time?

Not every Doctor dramatically makes speeches all the time. She’s very much like Two, imo. 

Now i’m sure if 13 got a chance to rip the master a new one for how he treated Yaz in tpotd she would have, but in that episode Yaz was ripping the master a new one for how he treated 13 because Yaz Was The Doctor, there was no need for 13 to do it. 

i do not like =/= this is bad 

#dw shit #i personally am sick to shit of the doctor yelling in peoples faces every second episode #but that doesn't actually mean it's bad writing either #i don't like it #(though i do think it's a bad look to a point having some white dude yell at everybody all the time) #but i am rlly done with so many 'why was 13 written so badly' only to list subjective reasons for it #you did not like it #there's a difference #i dislike how 12's era is more aimed at the audience than the charcters #but it's not Bad

I think if you taught Veronica about aromantism and queer platonic relationships it would change her life.

#fe veronica #THIS IS. ANOTHER THOUGHT. i have about lif and thrasir's dynamic. #like it isn't just me slotting them into siblings/found family the way fanon does sometimes #(in a way that really undermines the relationship between characters/each chara independently) #it's like. qprs can be fucking anything. that is the whole point of qprs. #the thought of romance/sexuality being a component between them DOES inherently make me uncomfortable #really bc when you get down to it alfonse was an adult/late teens if we're generous when he met veronica #and veronica when we first met her (after alfonse does/has an established Knowing Her) is either 12/13. #estimated from dress up bridal sanaki dialogue where she states vero is her age (sanaki is 13ish PoR) #like. ambiguous looking for an older brother figure aside. doofenshmirtz voice she's 13 #doofensgmirtz voice now 15. blows you up with my evil beam #so like. sibling-like qpr. where both parties are aching to have their other half back (other half in question being a sibling) #this is my belief.

Maybe I'll stop talking about my shitty life and family for a while. Or maybe tag those posts as something so ppl can block the tag.

I dunno, I dont want ppl to worry about me because I basically treat tumblr as my journal and love to complain about stuff and yeah, my life has been basically a trainwreck but it's alright, it's my trainwreck and I've learned to deal with it at this point (making my peace with it, on the other hand, I haven't truly done that yet).

I post about it mostly to confirm that I am not the insane one, that maybe some things in my life that are outside of my control do suck. I have a myriad stories of my family being downright terrible to me, and I'd probably have more if I didn't have such a shitty memory (which I am guessing, is partly bcs for reasons I am repressing some of those memories), and as much as I wanna share these stuff, I probably won't. And a lot of the stuff I share doesn't really hurt me that much anymore, because most of them happened when I was younger (if something just happened I'll specify so).

So like, yeah I am alright. If I wasn't, I do have ppl to sorta talk to, so it's cool. And yeah, my parents do suck :D but it is what it is, at least they do take care of me in some ways.

(Sometimes I do post shitty things that happen to me because I have a tendency to repress my memories or forget a lot of stuff about certain events so i guess it's also sort of a way to document these events so I know that they happened)

#corin's lore #My memory is so shitty I barely remember my childhood or early teenagehood #Or really anything of my past is pretty vague in my memory and I'm pretty sure I have some memory gaps as well?? #Genuinely don't even remember when exactly i got into hetalia loll (besides taht I was either 12 or 13) #Or even making my tumblr blog #Literally besides covid 19 and my late grandmother's dead and some school stuff(and a fight with my mom) I dont remember much at age 13 #Actually all these stuff may be the reasons why

Now that we're in between Doctors and about to go into RTD's second era, let's get this sorted.

#doctor who #i'll be honest i did not vibe with moffat era who #it got better with peter capaldi though #haven't seen much of 13 yet #10 is a legend of course #9 was bloody brilliant he deserved at least another two seasons preferably with mickey and jack and rose #11 wasn't even that bad but i never quite warmed up to either amy or river so that phase is kinda meh for me #11 and clara is also not very good #clara and 12 on the other hand whole different story #it's so hard to choose though

[dirtytransmasc]

its so weird thinking about childhood best friends you don't know anymore. like. the girl and her siblings who lived next door for year, who I used to considered my sister, who now looking back on it was probably my first crush ever, who swore we would grow up together, who was only 'visiting' her family for a month, turns out her parents lied to us, I never saw her again. the girls I went to summer to summer camp with every year and now I can barely remember there faces.

like. how are they doing?

I still can't conceptualize that these people who mattered *so* much to me are just... gone... chances are that I will never see them again, especially my best friend who's back in Pakistan, and even if I did, so much time has passed that I would most likely not recognize them even if I did see them.

#in my mind they're frozen in time #who knows where they are or who they've become #to me we're still 8 years old playing Minecraft in her basement #or 11 and going to the beach #or 12 and im sitting next to her at the dinner table #im 10 and meeting up with all my friends at summer camp #im 13 and its my last year at camp and we all sorta know we'll never see each other but we won't say it #im 14 and scrolling through my old Instagram trying to find a sliver of hope that I'll ever talk to her again #I miss her #I miss them #im forgetting her voice #how is one of the most important parts of me. of my childhood fading away? #currently sobbing #if fatima. who loves unicorns and dogs and the color purple and popcorn and brownies and left for a wedding and never came back. Hi. #your best friend misses you. More than you could ever know. #I still have those friendships necklaces that were supposed to come in before you left. they came 3 days after. I still have them in my room #I never gave the pink one to rose. I never saw her again either #personal vent

Re: the timeline - I think everything pre-season 4 is supposed to be counted as "present day" (at the time of airing), so 3x18 should be (roughly) taking place in spring 2020 (sans pandemic) and then, yea things get a little weird after that with the beginning of S4 being set in Sept 2020, but airing in Jan 2021. But I think you can solidly consider everything pre-season 4 to take place similarly along the date it aired.

I remember there being some timeline confusion this season in 6x11 (March 2023) when Bobby tells the hospital staff that Buck is a 30 y/o male. Which, if each season is roughly set against the time it's airing, I think is hard to figure when Maddie says Buck is 28 in 3x01 (Sept 2019).

But I do think the writers screw up their own timelines sometimes - ex: I think Buck should have been 31 if not 32 in 6x11, I also don't think Eddie and Buck are meant to be the same age even though the glimpse of Shannon's headstone in S6 would indicate they are closer in age than what's been implied in several previous eps/seasons. So, TLDR; Idk if the writers/producers keep as close of a watch on little timeline details as we do to know when they're contradicting themselves lol.

Yeah, I think s4 screwed up their time line plans and they kinda said fuck it by season 6 because to give us a definitive date for Shannon's birthday and death really messes with things there, they put a definitive date on the s2 finale, they defined Eddie's age, when they haven't really defined it for anyone except for the occasional mention to Buck's age and the general Bobby is in his 50s along with Athena. And like, Buck being 28 before the tsunami, 29 when he finds out about Daniel and 30 by the lightning really compresses the timeline there, even if we assume he had just turned 28 in s3 and is about to turn 31 during the lightning (which doesn't make a lot of sense in regards of when Buck's birthday would be, not that I actually think they have a set birthday for any of the characters) that's still a lot things happening in the middle, because there's also Jee being born, so if they really pushed s3 back, like, how old is Jee supposed to be at the end of season 6? Because she's walking and toddler talking by the end of 6a, so she has to be close to 2 around there? With her being born end 2020/beginning 2021, it has to be 2023, but Maddie left a few months after she was born and she was way for 6 months, so Jee is pushing 1 by the time Boston happens, which kinda adds up considering the time jumps that are established around the shooting, but also with Buck being 29 while Maddie is pregnant, how can he still be 30 and Jee be almost 2? And there's also the way another whole baby is created and born during 6b. Because eve. considering the way the baby is born early, it has to be what? 8 months from cursed to the finale? The more I think about the more knots are created in my brain.

And even more so considering the injuries at the bridge and the way the season ends with Chim coming back and Eddie already there, when the recovery time for broken ribs is close to 2 months in real world but maybe not in 911 world because Lena broke her ribs during the tsunami but she's perfectly fine the next episode. So, like, what's the truth?

I feel like the whole time line I created is around Buck's age and I'm starting to believe Buck may need to be even younger than we assume, because if he's 26 in s1, 28 in s3 and he's still just 30 in s6, the math stops mathing somewhere along s5. Because, like, either things are happening real quick during 5b or the time line is just wrong. But I agree, I don't think they've been all that careful with the dates there, and they didn't think about the implications of giving us the Shannon related dates.

#imma be honest this whole thing started in my head while i tried to figure out I can say Chris is about to turn 13 in a fic lol #and eddie said the tsunami was less than 3 years before 6a #so he would've turned 12 at some point in 6b? #so making him 13 would push the fic too far into the future lol #and also i was trying to figure how long after the tsunami was the shooting #because since the tsunami is the beginning of s3 and the shooting is the end of season 4 #and again theres the whole Jee being created and born #i kinda slapped a 2 years between them and called it a day #but now im questioning things kspakapakapaka #i am legit giving myself a headache #so im gonna stop questioning and accept they dont know so i dont know either lol #but thank you #911 #i really need a tag for asks #anon 😌

sometimes I feel like I went to elementary school in like the 1970s in comparison to my 10 years ish younger cousins 😹

since I didn’t eat pork I very often got special food since pork was the most common meat they’d serve at school, which meant I always got my food last and I couldn’t ask for the school kitchen staff to give me less (they hardly ever did that when people asked to, though). the most common replacement was soy sausages which are absolutely gross imo and I still can’t eat them, and bc I got my food last teachers kept a hawk eye on me to make sure I finished, and I was never allowed to leave before finishing, no matter how bad the food tasted and even though I ate a lot of it…I was called immature and childish and spoiled for not wanting to eat, and while my classmates finished their food (which they got earlier and I assume was better tasting since the recipes were adapted for pork) and played outside I always had to sit with teachers watching over me until the older students came…

apparently this is not a thing at all anymore, like 10-15 years later, my aunts and uncles were shocked I had to go through what they did as kids too when I’m closer in age to their children

#I have way more stories like this lol #like I was also called childish and immature for being afraid of water and thus being a bad swimmer #and not wanting to jump in the pool (I’ve never jumped off a trampoline taller than 1m idk why it just…i just can’t) #I vividly remember being eight years old and crying bc I was afraid to jump in #and a teacher goes ‘don’t be childish. my little three year old daughter plays in the water like a water animal it’s nothing to be scared of #‘ #thanks #judging from my cousins’ schooling that does not happen anymore either here thank god #t says #rant #I guess? #using my mom as a reference too bc she grew up in the 1970s and our stories about being force fed and guilt tripped and called childish #over these kind of things are really similar #schools are sooo much better with adapting to different diets like no pork vegetarian vegan gluten free etc than when I was a kid though #it’s such a relief #the improvement started when I was in like middle school though #like 12-13

the pacing of birdmen... -_-

#just thinking thoughts... #it's not bad but... it's not good?? #I think there were too many pieces that she was trying to move around concurrently #so much so that when something 'goes off' so to speak #it doesn't feel well-timed or impactful #and things don't really tend to parallel each other either #I dunno I feel like the scale of plot was much more... digestible in kks?? #where like you start off with what yoshimori's doing #and then you slowly add in the shadow org and then build masamori's nefarious plot on top of that #the shadow org stuff is what typically spices up yoshimori's life pushing what we perceive as plot progression in the story #in the immediate foreground #and meanwhile sumiko's existence (and though the readers don't know it at this time) and her nefarious plot with tokimori #are ALSO simmering in the back at this time #I think it feels less overwhelming becuase in kks you have this concept of 'shadow org' first #which gets further broken down into 'night troops' 'coucil of 12' (13? i forgor) 'the leader' 'actually that's a fake here's the REAL leade #and because it's sort of just fine-tuning the details of this big thing #it doesn't feel like multiple factions to keep track of the way 'american flock' 'the eves' 'the mutants' 'chinese flock' etc. feel #it's so frustrating... I think the pacing at the end of kks and at the beginning of bm was good #but I think bm's pacing was a compressed version of kks's #in the sense that the end is a lot denser than the beginning #but whereas kks was too loose and directionless in the beginning #bm was too woven and dense at the end #SAD #SO SAD #MISS TANABE YOU CAN DO IT.

I'm so close to the end of chapter 13

#personal #fic: sins of the father #just an fyi before you see it in the author's notes: there will be a hiatus of indeterminate length after chapter 13 but i WILL come back #also 13 is gonna drop in 2 halves like 12 did #not because it's especially long (both halves together are most likely gonna top out at 14k. which is reasonable for me) #but bc rhea's death & grandma time are both such big events I want to give myself a fighting chance of getting comments about either one #(bc some of my commenters are genuinely insane. i love engagement but LORD) #BUT YEAH #I just gotta get aemon in the mountains & then write grandma time & then it'll be time for the editing pass!

the master is a woman for one regeneration and suddenly becoming a good guy is like, the Worst thing to want for that story to conclude with and that it’s actively wanted by people sometimes floors me 

#dw shit #for so many reasons like come on??? #the story doing this (aside from being a terrible continuation of twelve and misssy) would have some weird #gender bullshit going on that is so not needed or cool #missy wasn't aiming to be good #she wanted to be 12's friend hence why she was acting 'good' #dhawan did not want to be 13's friend #so he didn't try to be good #proving ultimately missy's motivations Were selfish #(that's fine. that's not a problem. her motivations do not invalidate good deeds done.) #but all of this is actually based around the master's agency #as in #if they feel like pandering to the doctor's moral standards #missy did #dhawan does not #i think at the Very best you could say they reach chaotic neutral #and don't break into the good barrier #meanwhile the doctor lives on the whole square #feel like the doctor being an arrogant asshole is left out of this discussion a lot bc fandom has no sense of moderation #and either 12 did Nothing wrong or was an abusive monster #neither of which is true
