Max/Liz 2.0 #17 for the OTP asks

a song / movie one each person loves that the other person can’t stand

oh my god, i had way too much fun contemplating these! thank you for adding some delight to my morning!

MAX

george strait's 'check yes or no' | liz understands, okay? the parallels with their actual existence are undeniable and obvious. as much as she loves her extra-terrestrial cowboy, though, she doesn't share his magnetism to country/western. as soon as there's a twang, she's out. they do go line-dancing ONCE, for their first wedding anniversary, mostly because she's still too wrapped in the bliss of having him back - in one piece, for good - to put up too much of a fight.

LIZ

rihanna's 'we found love' | like liz, max doesn't miss the connections that can be made between the lyrics and their history. and he'll never get tired of watching her match the beat in the morning, brushing her teeth, drying her hair, dancing amy around to soothe or distract her. but, god help him, on a good day, he can feel the beginnings of a headache with the first note. on a bad one? he worries spinal fluid will leak out his ears.

interested in further domestic bliss? just ask!

Maybe the problem with Christian fiction is that it's non-denominational. People are just "Christian", with no effort put into showing what practicing that religion looks like for them specifically. No indication that there are other Christians who could have different beliefs. No wrestling with differing ideas and the struggle of how one should live out their Christian faith. And that makes it unrealistic and unrelatable.

#me reading any christian historical fiction set in england: why are none of these gentry anglican?? #they ARE all anglican and if they are not it is extremely plot and character relevant you can't just have them using evangelical buzzwords #but i'm also thinking of this because i started another charlotte yonge book #that is by far my favorite of the things of hers that i've read #because it has characters who have different upbringings and religious opinions #instead of just 'here's a bunch of high church anglicans judging people who don't live up to their victorian standard' #you have the very high church anglican rector whose wife is worldly but still a very good person #the girl raised in a very strict protestant family who is more scrupulous than the anglicans but is still recognized as a good person #you have people who are trying to work out the nuances of different issues #and that makes it so much more realistic and so much easier to integrate into the story #(the politics though are hilarious) #(most of the classics that survive are the ones that were 'ahead of their time' in politics) #(so it's equally fascinating and refreshing and a bit infuriating to see one that is very very of its time with regards to women's rights) #('why did this woman get up at the meeting and explain her very good ideas for rebuilding after the fire? she should have had a man do it') #(meanwhile i'm just screaming 'why on earth SHOULDN'T she???') #(it's almost enough to make a feminist of me)

hello i have a genuine question, this is not hate! why do you ship sakura and kakashi? does it not feel unsettling to you due to the circumstances, them meeting when she was 12 and he was 27; and him being her teacher at some point? again this is not hate i just wanted to ask.

No worries!

The main reason is that it's fiction—and the characters are not real people with real consequences. As an adult, I'm capable of separating fantasy from reality, and if we're not able to safely explore alternate avenues of thinking in fantasy, then what's the point of making/enjoying them in the first place?

If you're asking about it in the context of the show- then I could argue that having an age-gap relationship with someone who was once your teacher (and initiating that relationship only when they're an adult, without power dynamics being involved) at some point is way less unsettling compared to enjoying a piece of media glorifying a military state actively training child soldiers.

And less unsettling than having Sakura get with Sasuke, given the latter spent all of his on-screen time deriding/actively trying to kill the former.

If we step back, Naruto (like all fiction) has many complicated and heavy themes that could be considered quite problematic, so it's always interesting to see shipping dynamics front and center.

At the end of the day, none of it is real, and while disseminating and discussing is critical to the health of any piece of media or fandom, I don't think it's worth getting up in arms against people who are using that media to explore their own ideas in a safe, consequence-free environment.

Hope that answers your question, anon!

#naruto #fiction and reality are two separate things! #Fiction is a guilt-free place and open to everyone #And that's my favorite thing about it- everyone is welcome and everyone can explore or indulge or enjoy #everyone who reads this- please enjoy ur media without guilt!!

Creature. (The rendered ones are referenced from manga panels)

#mediocre art #tokyo ghoul #On some level I think I should like Kaneki more than I do but there's this weird sense of detachment #I have not only from him but being able to perceive him as a character? #I don't even dislike him it's just that I can't feel any which way about him at all. He's a catalyst for events #feels more like the conch from Lord of the Flies or something rather than a fictional person. #He doesn't suffer and learn from the consequences #he just suffers and does what got him there again. It's arguable that the lack of punishment denies him the satisfaction #but if that's the case why does he end the story with everything working out perfectly for him? #Why do his friends oblige his flaws and accept his lack of change? #Is the problem my lack of understanding or his lack of good writing? #Is he well written? #Why do I like a certain character from a different anime who's a very similar person with very similar dynamics #but with a goal and acceptance by himself and those around him that his actions really are reprehensible and cannot truly be atoned for #not only more but to the point that he's actually one of my favorites? #Am I just sitting upon a throne of entitlement #because his thought process and experiences are not catered to be applicable to and understood by myself? #GOD IF I KNOW ANYMORE #I'm not pressuring myself to like him or anything I just don't understand anything about kaneki these days and I don't know why

i ache for katara so deeply, she deserves so much better than her canon fate. i cannot express in words how much her story and how the fandom views/treats her physically hurts me

#anti kataang #katara deserved better #i know she’s a fictional character so ppl can say think and feel however they want about her and it the end of the day it shouldn’t matter #cus she’s not real but i just feel for her so deeply it hurts #katara my beloved #katara #katara my best friend who i have a DEEP parasocial relationship with i will always be on your side #they can never make me hate you #WE COULDVE HAD IT ALL #yes i’m being dramatic but also 100% serious #truly my favorite character of all time and she has been done wrong not only by the writers but by the fans too lord give her a break #i need her to get justice so bad against bryke and everyone who speaks ill on her #god please take all her suffering and give it to bryke #am i being hyperbolic right now? #your guess is as good as mine #zutara #for exposure ig #anti bryke

The coolest rebel kids the world has ever seen!

…

It’s my birthday today, which means I get to spend some time drawing my favorite Ace Attorney characters in a pose from one of my favorite Vocaloid songs - don’t know how I made this connection but who am I to question my brain…

[Image Description: A digital redraw of a pose from the Vocaloid music video ‘Punch it, Punk!’ by Ferry, featuring Sebastian Debeste and Kay Faraday from Ace Attorney Investigations 2. Kay is slightly in front of Sebastian, and they are in identical poses. They are pointing forwards with their right hands, and holding their left hands up next to their heads, pointing in the same direction. Kay has a confident expression, while Sebastian has an uncertain expression. End Description]

#my art #ace attorney #sebastian debeste #yumihiko ichiyanagi #kay faraday #mikumo ichijou #aai2 #ace attorney investigations #ace attorney fanart #pafl #wish I got to see more of these two in canon. especially Seb #he’s one of my all time favorite fictional characters #a bit annoyed that the pose blocks his hair but oh well #my design for him has a slight scar on his cheek - repeatedly hitting yourself in the face with a baton has to leave a mark #plus it reminds me of Hunter from TOH who’s another one of my favorites #Kay’s just vibing as usual #again please let me know if the image ID is alright - this is quite a strange pose so I want to make sure I’m describing it correctly

do girl jeri and boy jerry exist explicitly to torment me

#boy jerry #girl jeri #abstinence camp #just reread my favorite jeri/ry fic im not okay #what the fuck is wrong with them why are they like that. never change 👍 #i need to stop provoking jeri/ry thoughts after i'm supposed to be alseep how am i meant to go to bed #when there are fictional characters who are doomed to be apart no matter how much they want to be together. no matter #how inseperable they are #no matter how much they love each other unconditionally. even after they each broke their number one rule #no matter how much theyve forgiven each other (but not really. theres some deep seeded part of them that cant be forgiven) #no matter how close they are to each other. they can only be friends. very close friends #hi have you ever thought about 'the little death' in reference to 'til death do us part'? because i do. i do. #definite's ted talks

"Damn these humans just ain't it, I think I'll just- *leaves own tribe*"

#I 💕 humans in fiction who leave their own race because they prefer the other species far more better and comfortable to be around #it is uncertain if frisk and chara came to the underworld on purpose but hey they stayed! that was the case with jake too #they saw and they decided to stay #undertale #avatar #ponyo #out of all of these fujimoto is my favorite story wise #he saw people polluting the ocean&left humanlike lifestyle and body to stay in the ocean& made sure all of his daughters despised humans #ponyo fujimoto #fujimoto ponyo #undertale frisk #undertale chara #avatar jake sully

just had a weird long discussion (not quite an argument) about "romanticizing" royalty / authority in fictional fantasy settings and OH MY GOD.

#aragorn #dimitri alexandre blaiddyd #tbh this isn't even my favorite kind of fictional royalty #i like the worthy hesitant leader who doesn't know if they're best for the job but has a vision of peace guiding them forward
