#he insists it was cool at the time

What if the short hair styles are the elf equivalent of 70s mullets?

What if its the fashion for elven men at the time to wear their hair short. It’s the latest thing! It’s what all the younger ones are doing, and Celebrimbor is joining in because yeah he’s not an elfling anymore but he’s allowed to try new styles! And Gil-Galad is rolling his eyes because fashion, ugh, it’ll pass in a few centuries.

#rings of power #the rings of power #elf hairstyles #I love the long luscious locks as much as the next tolkienite #but you have to admit they probably switched it up a few times every millennium #the elflings at least #like Finrod had his hair short in Valinor #maybe he was early to the elf mullet party #Elladan and Elrohir find portraits of Elrond in his short hair phase #and he is mercilessly mocked #he insists it was cool at the time #they are mortified that their dad was the equivalent of a human hippie #what were you thinking ada? #...Durin said it looked nice #really I do want the proper elf hair back next season but I find this explanation very amusing

Usopp briefly needing a high vantage point, so Sanji launches him into the air with "Armée de L'air: Darling Shoot!"

Usopp is not pleased with the name because it doesn't sound tough enough. (Also maybe this is something they've practiced a few times on the ship. It's uniquely suited to them because Usopp is long ranged and trusts Sanji to catch him after. Also, Sanji is very used to catching, launching, and kicking Usopp, so he knows what works and what doesn't)

(this doesn't work with the others consistently because either they don't want to/fighting style doesn't fit with it, they know Sanji won't bother catching them, and/or Sanji himself does not want to launch them if he doesn't absolutely have to [Zoro; he is fine with that])

(alternatively, this works just fine with the others, but Sanji wants it to be his and Usopp's 'thing' unless absolutely necessary)

#one piece #nemotime #sanuso #usopp #sanji #Usopp bans Sanji from crawling into his hammock for a couple nights the first time Sanji says the name in battle #he pouts and sulks about it. Usopp i mean. Sanji is being sad and pathetic about his punishment too but in a different flavour #can't decide if Sanji should just keep the name and have this be a recurring cycle with them every time they use it #or if Sanji should try new names each time that are progressively more sappy and get him even more time in the dog house #both are funny so it's a hard choice hmmm #oh Usopp's suggestions aren't good either btw. they sound cool to him (and Luffy and Chopper who were his brainstorming buddies for it) but #they are very lame. in a cute way. Sanji refuses to use any of them though #he definitely kicks Usopp's shins a bit if he starts insisting on something too much #Usopp will get all dramatic and whine about it but Sanji is basically just tapping him. its barely a kick. Usopp will still say he should #get recompense in the form of sole naming rights. Sanji kicks him noticeably harder for that #hmm. i could move this from the tags to the post but. nah

Kingdom Hearts Re:coded - Finish Commands - Spinner Ray

#kingdom hearts re:coded #khrecoded #sora #donald #goofy #commands #my gif #imo the bond and friendship between these three felt the most impactful and meaningful in this game compared to the previous titles #and i love how this parallels the first game #on his first trip to hollow bastion sora loses his keyblade but things play out differently this time #sora is completely defenseless but his friends are there to protect him every step of the way as he instructs them to attack in his stead #and help aid him in his search for riku #you even get this cool team attack #makes you think back to those lines ''i don't need a weapon. my friends are my power!'' #and it's true they really are #also the way donald and goofy stand up for sora and insist he has a heart despite being data and that they care about him no matter what #and that close connection is what helps him beat the system and truly gain a heart of his own as well as an actual keyblade #it's just nice i like how genuine and sincere these games are

sometimes i remember that gojo wanted to tell geto “we’ll meet again, right?” just before he died but forced himself not to knowing it would have cursed him and then i start thinking about how kind and thoughtful gojo is as a character and how he hasn’t been able to lean on another human being since geto defected and then i want to . Scream

#like. there’s something almost helpless about that question. because gojo doesn’t *know* the answer…. he’s asking for reassurance #he wants to know if they’ll ever meet again even though deep down he knows the answer #and it’s so… bare? so vulnerable. #if he had voiced it that would’ve been the first time in TEN YEARS that gojo truly bared his heart to someone and asked for help #but he knew it would turn into a curse and so he gulped the words back down. :(( #gojo is such a sincerely kind and thoughtful character and it breaks my heart that sooo many people in the fandom can’t see that 😭 #he isn’t a saint and he definitely isn’t selfless but above all else his goal as a human being is to make sure no one ever feels alone. #that no one has their youth taken away from them….. that everyone gets a Choice in how to live their life :(((( it’s so important to him. #i just genuinely don’t understand ppl who insist that he’s morally gray ….. gojo is a consistently Good person and that never changes #he wants to have fun and laugh and he wants his students to enjoy their youth. he wants them to think he’s cool. #he’s the big brother slash father Ever and i love him to death #i got sidetracked this was supposed to be abt geto 😔😔 anyway the final scene between them will always be my Favorite ever #and the key to understanding both their characters and love for one another #ty for coming to my ted talk i’m feeling normal abt them today 😇😇 #ari noises ✩

you know what i'll say it MIKE AND ROIER ARE THE ONLY ONES I RESPECT these fuckers will rock up and say FUCK english all my homies HATE english they are the only ones i trust and respect these fuckers are like you will hear me speak my language and you will LEARN IT OR DIE and i respect the HELL OUT OF IT dude THANK YOU FOR BEING ENGLISH HATERS brothers THANK YOU FOR NOT SPEAKING ONLY ENGLISH WHEN AMONG ANYONE NOT OF YOUR LANGUAGE GROUP!!!!!!!!

#qsmp #if there are others who also refuse to speak english that i didn't notice i will add them #this excludes the koreans bc they aren't strong in english so it's only half an option for them #(allegedly aren't strong i didn't see them around long enough to come to any real conclusions but i'm told they aren't strong in it) #and also hugo bc he didn't have much time on the server and some people who start out relying on the translations #will swap over to using their english however strong that might be idk his relative strength either bc like korea he wasn't online long 😔 #which i also respect because i'm glad they get to practice their nonnative tongue that's cool #but the first multilingual smp with live translation becoming the 'english in a group' server gives me fits #anyway for legal reasons much of this post is hyperbole and exaggeration #but i do love how mike and roier can be consistently relied on to just Not Speak English #block game brainrot #shut up vic #bonus shoutout to foolish who often insists spanish speakers only speak spanish to him #and tries to only speak spanish in return. he's not got broad vocab just yet but for only learning via this and duolingo he's doing amazing #and i have a lot of respect for him for it #(yes i respect everyone for reasons but this post is about the ones who can and do speak Not English on purpose) #(regrettably people like bbh and phil don't count although i still respect their efforts) #ANYWAY SLASH END TAG RANT THIS POST KNOWS WHAT IT'S ABOUT DON'T FIGHT ME

arthur dragging merlin to training bc he needs a training dummy and who better than an actually dummy (no, merlin, arthur cant train with the knights bc. bc. bc they’re busy. IT DOESN’T MATTER THAT HES THEIR PRINCE/KING AND THEREFORE WILL DO WHATEVER HE SAYS-). merlin picking up on both defensive and offensive skills bc sometimes arthur needs to spice up training and doesn’t need a shield to hit but another sword. arthur and the knights being beaten and tied up but their assailants leave the serving boy free to serve them instead. but it’s not like merlin can just use magic in front of them so he bides his time until he’s able to get his hands on a sword to use against them. they don’t take him seriously (hahaha what can the lanky, wimpy serving boy who was hiding behind a tree during their quarrel do with a sword thicker than his body?). merlin using the skills he developed during training and while studying under gaius as physicians apprentice to strike at just the right spots to absolutely obliterate them

#im a huge fan of healers being terrifying on the battlefield #like will solace? he knows how to kill #and like yeah…merlin can kill with magic like super easy but this is cool so idc #merlin turns to the knights with a sheepish grin: i have no idea how i did that #arthur staring at merlin wide-eyed and flustered: wtf??? you could do that the whole time??? #bbc merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #merthur #arthur is very insistent on dragging merlin into training with the knights now #but after gwaine gets the upper hand and pins merlin to the ground while flirting one (1) time #arthur restricts merlins training to one on one with only himself

WIP Excerpt Tag Game

Tagged by @words-after-midnight to share an excerpt!

A little bit I just added to It's in the Cards: Elliott wants to listen to Adrian talk; Adrian, in turn, talks about shooting down a perfectly good idea:

“Do you want me to talk about something else?” Adrian asked. Yes, because Elliott wasn't eager to get back into their too-hot car, only to sit in their apartment alone with their thoughts again. “What about the band?” “If that’s what you really want.” “Yes, god, please. Tell me about…I don’t know. How you came up with the name Versatile Lemon.” He smiled. “It was the name of a cookbook.” “Seriously?” “At Reggie’s parents’ house. We came here for spring break and were trying to pick a name…Veronica wanted us to call ourselves Polycule, as if that wouldn’t have been super fucking misleading.”

Interested? @revenantlore @byjillianmaria @magnus-sm-writes

#it's in the cards #writeblr #i can imagine this argument so clearly in my mind #Veronica keeps insisting Polycule is a good name #Adrian gets increasingly more annoyed because they're not a polycule and he doesn't want to have to explain that a million times to people #No...no he has nothing against polycules! What- yes it's a cool word. sure. But it's false advertising!!! #Veronica at this point has stopped caring but thinks it's funny to keep arguing with him about it #Reggie still isn't sure what a polycule is but can't get a word in edgewise to ask

brainstorming an rvb fantasy au and i think this is the funniest thing ive ever written

#rvb #biggies rvb fantasy au #i really wanna emphasize how long and drawn out the hunt for the sword needs to be #everyone is convinced itll be a waste of time except sarge who insists that they MUST find it 'for the glory of red team!!' #theres a treasure map and several riddles. they get lost no less than 4 times. grif almost dies. #and after all that. theyve found it!! it was real after all!!! all the pain and suffering was worth it!! #and not only is it already taken. but tucker just. randomly stumbled upon it and pulled it out like it was nothing #he has no idea what the reds just went through or how valuable the sword actually is. he just thought it looked cool #like its so fucking absurd. sarge tries to kill him. simmons fucking bluescreens. lopez is like [fucking classic] #donut is just excited that the sword is real and admires it with tucker. (insert innuendo about crossing swords) #anyway i am having way too much fun with this

[yanderespamton78]

ive already shown this to anyone who actually cares pretty much loll (anyone following the addison arg) but i might as well post it on here

this is actually the first proper animation ive done :'D like other than this ive animated a ball bouncing but that was more to test the software than anything,, lucky for me i consume animation memes more than i consume water so i know the basics B)

#i need to drink hmm #ok im gonna ramble in the tags about the process because i like rambling #that frame where hes looking down and saying “we're coming” was actually the first frame i did #this was gonna be a stupid meme wtf happened #i can show you the first image it was just joking about how quickly everything had escalated lmao #then i drew that and was like #“woag;;;;; ook so like what if i animated this” #twas GRUELING #it may not have seemed like it bc i didnt mention it when i was wokring on it but i wanted to keep it a surprise lol #anyways im finally free from this stupid animation I CAN DRAW PIN!!! #i ended up redrawing the first frame once or twice because it looked really really bad #then the last ones im still kinda unsatisfied with but i couldnt be arsed to change them #im still unhappy with the way he jolts his head back it feels weird #thing is because of my insistence to keep that one really cool frame in there i had to do it #basically i needed a way to get him from hunched over to back straight looking down with his face hidden at one point #and it ideally had to look very unnatural that was the general goal #but idk i thought that line where Slick called Addon blue bell was really FUCKING COOL #also in a voice message Turnip acknowledged the static #SO PROUD OF MYSELF FOR THAT URUAHGH GURAH GH GHH #YES!!! THE STATIC!!!! I DID DO STATICCC!!!!! #also i know thats probably not what Slick possessing Turnon looked like but thats how i visualised it lol #I was binging tawog while watching this B) #OK actual tag time woag #animation #beginner animator #addison oc #turn off the lights arg #not my oc #addisons deltarune #my eyes hurt

I Said Man Cmon. another non horror one that was just like an unending shrug #all the more appreciation like yeah hey a horror movie and also just a movie where it's like yes i'm completely along for the ride wahoo yay #raising my third hand as a correct opinions about media haver #corned beef #it #no time to be coy i was here three and greater than three years ago. and just nowadays; evidently: #reddie #online listicle video voice The Couple Of Dozen V Varied Moments From The IT Movies That Drew Blood (Mine) #whoever came up with this sequence i'm kissing on the mouth like my god. again: profound #the power of the rileable using their end of things as their plausible deniability. like oh god i hope he thinks i'm cool. ok asshole Enough #being the guy Just Standing There like fellas the boy you're in love with very insistently did this wyd (only caring abt literature) #adding a 50% pink overlay like it comes time to make these coloring choices & i put on a vivacious song to inspire having fun / being myself #great choice imo. now to slide right under that midnight est wire

I just. I love my dad so much guys

#MAN OF ALL TIME he's so fuckin rad #he came over to help me set up my desktop (got a pc btw) and funniest man in existence here he touched my desk saw it wobble and went ''NO' #came back with his tools and an office chair for me because he saw the chair I was gonna use and went :/ #this man brought over an ENTIRE TOOLBOX just for me because I cannot for the life of me find where the old one went and just. fixed the des #that I had been struggling with for about eight months at this point. in like twenty minutes. and then set up my desktop for me #he also brought over a webcam and microphone without any sort of promoting just because he knows I do discord calls with my friends and gf #also I dug out the instructions for the desk and before I could even hand him the paper he was like ''so this is how we fix this'' #and then fixed it and was like ''yeah you did that wrong but you were close'' #and then was like ''dont buy furniture and stuff without letting me know first what you want I'll keep an eye out'' #and I was laughing being like ''I didn't want to come to you every time I need something because I want you to see me as independent'' #and he went ''you live by yourself of course I see you as independent'' and my bitches the way I almost cried right there #just. idk something something the way my families love languages have always been acts of service and gift giving #and my dad insisting I should rely on him more and giving me stuff I wanted but don't have without EVER TELLING HIM I wanted said things #just. my dad is so cool guys #sorry I saw my computer set up vibing on my desk and got completely overwhelmed #ignore me #not marvel related

[viky-somebody]

i wonder if there are any CPK enjoyers around here,

#i remembered my dream smp era and remembered that time he canonically left to the MCC server. #and then i remembered how funny his new life videos are and how funny he is on Pirates SMP #(He insists he just has no face under his mask????? Just void??? Like how cool and funky is that?????) #i feel like he deserves more fame. #viky stuff

[lisbonsteresa]

silly

#me for the 891st time: see it's cool because they just LIKE - #the way she doesn't really even try to talk him out of it (she knows better alskdfj) #she just makes her case and then when he insists on still going for it she's just like 'ok well call when you get into trouble #(and don't associate yourself with us aldsfkj)' #and he just grins and goes 'you got it' (which he'd never - sincerely - say to another 'supervisor' without causing them a major headache) #(not to mention that like 20 seconds before this she was standing in front of her boss holding in a giggle at the fact that they both knew #jane wasn't going to leave this alone and now here she is essentially letting him run rampant) #'she's just a girl with a crush' a big fat one and it's so funny to see because she's also the only one he even half listens to #she's the only one who can really reign him in but she's also the one who knows best that sometimes he just needs to be let loose #their dynamic is just so delightful to me a weird little overattentive nitpicker's dream maybe #tm

[gonzogender]

Ok I’m almost positive hanging out with this guy the past couple times have been dates but he’s also kept a good few inches between us at almost all times and I’m pretty sure tried so shake my hand when I left yesterday so like??

#very cool and rad to hang out with autistic people tho we’ve just been Talking #like idk I’m totally down to be friends but he also insisted on paying for the movies and stuff and also I’m Down so #much to think about I’m gonna try not talking about it immediately this time #mine

i think my social life can be perfectly summed up by the group projects where im the only member doing anything

#well technically this time i had a guy do research for me (on chatgpt) which is a little better than before #and last time i had a guy (who does NOT take the subject) finish one slide for me... shoutout to him hes so cool #i just wish that i could get credit for my work cause i know my teacher could care less #especially since she made it clear that our work will not be graded while still insisting that we need to go out and present perfectly #it is 1:56am! #i think i deserve an extra point for the effort :/ #obituaries

I'm just constantly on my bullshit these days. brain said fuck you feel everything and think about everything

#nerd alert #i feel like im going thru my midlife crisis early #im 28 years old thinking 'i need to get in better shape so i dont get all run down as i age' #like damn i should get on a workout machine so i can both get swole and also so i dont like. idk end up using a walker at 50 #my dad had really bad knees and had at least one knee replacement probably both bc of his 30yrs of factory jobs lifestyle #and because one time he had to snatch his step-grandson out of the path of a moving vehicle and fell hard on his knee when he did #and also probably my insistence on riding around on his back like a pony when i was like 3. i have vague memories of that #sorry dad #anyway i dont have a factory job or kids but i probably will end up diabetic and i just. wanna keep my physical health as long as i can #im like lowkey paranoid about death and it would be cool to worry less about my body breaking down through my own negligence #ik disability can happen to anyone for any reason but i wanna do what i can to keep myself able-bodied #like if i become physically disabled then i become physically disabled but i dont want it to be something that i couldve prevented #just by being less negligent of my own health #that said. i just need a whole new set of teeth like at this point it feels like thats inevitable
