#i know that she isnt the best person but that is no excuse to talk bad about her weight

[crumb-crumblet-s-crumbington]

yooooo!!! you’re my favorite ethan winters artist i just wanna say that first and foremost, thank you for the wholesome content of my comfort character and father figure 🥹🫶

i’m really curious bc i feel like i see a lot of people against mithan (not me personally, i’m p neutral on them!) but i’m curious to know all your thoughts on them! thoughts on their canon relationship, their fanon portrayal, the backlash against them/mia accusations, and your headcanons? i’m just really interested!!! hopefully that’s not weird :”)

have a good day!! sparkle on!!! ✨💖

i heart mithan... i think that they can be so cute...

i personally hc them t4t and i like to think that the dated in highschool before they both had fully transitioned

mia likes to bake and ethan likes to scrap book and he always likes to take pictures of mias cakes/ baked goods and has a album for them 😭

i am a multishipper so i draw a lot of ethan ships so my girl is left out sometimes and im sorry mia 😔

i actually really like their relationship, its a really complex dynamic that i like to talk about with my friends

i think the issue is that when talking about mithan or mia in general, theres just SO MUCH misinformation that its honestly a pain the butt to talk about

people still think that she was responsible for the creation of eveline, people still think that she experimented on eveline, people still use examples of her attacking ethan as if she did it on her own will instead of being mind controlled

in reality she was just someone who oversaw the transportation of evie. im not excusing her or anything because obviously she knew what she was doing, but people really try to accuse her of doing something she didnt and it bothers me alot lol

the problem with the fandom is that people either try to water her down to girlboss who did nothing wrong and fail to acknowledge the complexity/ moral grayness of her character and the other side is misogynists 😭😭😭😭

its hard to talk about her without people either going "stop trying to villainize her and make her look bad!" or people ACTUALLY villainizing her and acting like heisenberg would have treated him better 😭😭

mithan is such a sad relationship because they loved each other so much and that ended up being the reason their relationship fell apart (sort of... its not like the broke up... ethan kinda just straight up died)

i get a lot a trouble for saying this, but mia is a selfish person.

its not a bad thing! well i mean it is but it doesnt make her some evil witch who is somehow worse than the guy how made a werewolf american ninja warrior. its just a major character flaw she has! which is good! mia being a flawed person who makes mistakes and morally gray decisions make her a more interesting person!

she is selfish in the way that she wants to keep her family with her no matter the cost. even if it means lying to ethan about her job so that he wont think different of her. here is a interrogation from the re7 DLC, which is easy to miss!

she isnt necessarily trying to apologize for the things she has done, she is more of a, "u wont need to forgive me in the first place if we just forget it all and move on"

she doesn't try to redeem herself for what she has done, she tries to move on and return to the normal life that she wants so bad. which is fine! everyone copes a different way and she has to right to move on from her trauma. the problem that lies in this is that she has a shared trauma with ethan who still has no idea what went on in dulvey and still effects him till the present (he is mold! this is a important thing to know! most people would want to know if they were a walking corpse)

she played a direct part in what happened in dulvey, and im not referring to the email, she did not send that. she never wanted ethan to come in the first place. she tried her best to send a video to him, begging him to forget about her because she wanted to protect him, BUT it didnt send.

he got involved because she was involved. its honestly a series of really really unfortunate events.

THOUGH! she did know what she was getting into. im tired of seeing the narrative that mia was innocent and didnt know what was going on or was simply a bystander. she knew what she was doing, she knew eveline was a bioweapon, she knew eveline was a child. she used a MACHINE GUN! she knows how to use weapons and was obviously trained for it.

she tried her best to keep everybody out of the mess, ex: warning the bakers not to take them in, warning ethan not to find her, sacrificing herself for ethan in the later half of re7

but again, those are the consequences of HER actions

her consequences just happen to get really big and end up hitting ethan on the head like a metal sheet 😭

their relationship is really so interesting, it makes me really sad to think about sometimes 😭they both went through something that nobody else would ever understand, in the end they really only have each other. they get moved to an entire different country and the dulvey incident gets covered up with a "gas leak"

its really tragic because their marriage definitely had some flaws and bumps. and i know im repeating myself but its because people always take this in the worst way possible but just because i say their relationship was rocky doesnt mean im saying they dont love each other!!! thats the entire basis of mias character!! saying she doesnt love ethan would destroy her entire character!

you can see in the re8 DLC how fondly ethan talks about mia! he loves her so much, though im not sure if his comments in the DLC are him narrating current (post re8) or his thoughts before everything went down and he died (pre re8)

everything mia did was because she LOVED ethan. she would never do anything to intentionally hurt him, she is not a cruel person. she hides the truth of her job from ethan pre re7 because she loves him and doesnt want her job to drive them apart. she CONTINUES to refuse to tell ethan the truth post re7 because she wants to move on a live a happy normal life with him and knows something like her being directly associated with the connections would probably cause (more) problems. she refuses to tell ethan that he is mold because again, hard to live a happy marriage with your husband after you tell him hes a bioweapon.

obviously i dont think it was right that she did this, thats what makes her selfish! she did it for herself! she did it for her family! she thought it would work out, she thought that they could move on and be happy together.

the issue is that ethan didnt want to forget. he wanted to know what happened, he wanted to know the part mia played, he wanted answers! which is reasonable! he knows to some extent that mia was partially responsible for his involvement and he was always suspcious that mia was lying to him about her job which is implied when mia says "you were right, i did lie to you"

she doesnt learn, she doesnt stop lying, her lies get bigger and worse and it sucks yeah but it makes her so interesting!!! she keeps doing stupid things under the idea that this is whats best for her and her family, that if she hides this everything will work out and it will be for the better but its not!

just because telling your husband hes dead and a bioweapon is a hard subject to bring up doesnt mean you DONT bring it up. people shouldnt use that as a reason to excuse mia 😭, its a very bad excuse and honestly highlights how horrible their communication skills were. you cant just not tell your husband that he is actually infected with the mold and not tell him for the tree years between post re7 and pre re8.

im not saying these things to put mia down, or try and villanize her. these are all just actual things her character does! she isnt evil, but she isnt a knight in shining armor either. we need to be able to have talks about complex characters without crying everytime someone points out a flaw. characters have flaws! and mia just happens to have a lot of them!

im not mad at her, i dont dislike her because i think this way of her. shes a fictional character! you can like characters that are morally gray, or villains that drink blood and make corpse soldiers. they are fictional! pointing out the flaws of a character does not mean i dont like them.

i wouldnt call her "the real villain of re8" but i wouldnt treat her like a damsel in distress either. she is a competent person, she knows what shes doing, she has her reasons for doing them. she made bad descions with good intentions behind them! they can coexist and we should let them!

i like mithan! its a complex relationship because they both love each other so much but hurt each other in the process

talking about them is just a pain in the butt because talking about mia is a pain in the butt lol

i really hate how she keeps getting sidelined, its super frustrating to see mia get put in a cage in every game 😭

its even more frustrating that mia straight up just disappears???? in the shadows of rose DLC... like she just stops taking care of rose and theres nothing said about it. no reason or explanation. i dont think mia would ever ditch rosemary because she didnt care about her, but we probably will never know because capcom sucks at writing and they probably forgot the mia ever even existed.

all in all, i think the fandom is really just full of misinformation which make people either think mia is some horrible evil person, or its full of people who think that saying mia messed up is the equivalent of comparing her to wesker lol.

i really love mia, shes a incredibly fun and complex character, its just hard to enjoy her sometimes with the people in the fandom haha.

also ive got no idea what u meant by "the backlash against them/mia accusations" so sorry if i didnt answer that!

thank u for the ask! sorry for the long response!

"Discord is a bad friend"

Discord literally almost died TWİCE trying to fit in. You can't judge him by the way he thinks because all he wanted was always doing his best. I don't know if anyone understand this very clear but they're not trying to befriend/tame someone they're trying to tame someTHİNG.

Discord isn't something that can change personality since he is already some personality itself alive, all he can do best is limiting what he constantly has to do, leaving his influence and using his power.

Let's talk about the Tirek betrayal and Discord's plan in S9;

Season 4:

Even as a huge Fluttercord shipper and a big Discord fan I do not want the plot of S4 to go anywhere. Because I can put my fanatic emotions aside and analyse a good writing.

When writing redemption arcs, the character getting redeemed always has to go backat least for 1 time to the old habits. Because they are leaving their whole idelogy aside and changing the way they were doing for their whole life and starting a new, at one time they have to just check the old one to see if they're making a wrong decision or not to be sure because this isnt that easy.

Take Zuko for example, and I think Susie Deltarune did the same too but I'm not really sure fhdjdnd sorry))

Knowing how detrimental it is for Discord leaving his habitat from 'Discordant Harmony', Tirek's concerns said to Discord aren't even wrong, which did almost killed him during that episode, what if Fluttershy wasn't fast enough? Ever think about that?

Season 9

He has high level autism this is not even a headcanon and also not an excuse for bad behavior, his way of thinking isn't as simple as yours he had everything under control and AGAİN he had good intentions to help his friends its an another Entrapta in She ra finale situation oh my god I'm not even gonna further explain this

SUPER SAD SONGS!

021. confrontations!!!!!

WARNINGS: swearing

its was 6pm, and kazuha had walked into the gym right on time. she looked around and saw sunghoon. she smiled and ran up to him and gave him a tight hug. “hi sunghoon” she said as she smiled at him.

she then heard a sound. it sounded as if someone make their thraot clear. she looked around and saw sunoo and her smile dropped but it quickly picked up as she didnt want anyone to notice. but sunoo did. “hi sunoo” she said with a fake smile. sunoo nodded.

“what did you wanna talk about?” she asked as she looked back at sunghoon. anyone could clearly see how she had heart eyes for him. “well uh-“ “cut the shit, whats your issue kazuha” sunoo cut sunghoon off as he crossed his arms.

“i-i- i dont know what you’re talking about” kazuha laughed nervously. “let me see” sunoo said as he stood up and started walking around the girl in a circle. “threats to sakura about doing all this? ruin all yn’s opportunities? oh and lets not forget, making sure yn didn’t debut? does any of those ring a bell?” sunoo continued as he stood right in front of kazuha, slightly looking down at her with a cold expression.

“w-w-what? how do you even know about all those things!” kazuha shouted in frustration. “we know alot, now are you gonna explain yourself?” sunghoon said as he looked at kazuha with cold eyes. she felt her heart break slightly. she had lost. she truly had. it was like the world was working against her in all ways. “agh that stupid bitch yn, if she wasn’t here then none of this would have happened. dont you see, she ruined my life! she took all the opportunities i could have had, even you sunghoon. im in love with you, but ofc you had to like her. she took everything from me, now its my turn to make her pay.” kazuha said as she grabbed her hair in frustration.

sunoo and sunghoon sat in silence for a while. “why” sunoo asked after a looking at sunghoon for a bit. lazuha sighed softly. “im so tired of being in yns shadow. she was always the one that did the best no matter what, but i’ll give it to her, she practiced hard for everything. she did her best so that she could excel and you could see it but im jus so tired of yn taking everything away from me. the thing that makes it worse is that when she didn’t get the debut spot, she didn’t even seem sad about it. she instead said i deserved it and carried on with her life like normal again which to me is such a huge thing to do. if i didn’t debut i would probably be crying rn yk?” kazuha said as a few tears dropped from her eyes.

“but dont you think you’re going the wrong way about this? like youre creating all this jus so she could feel some sort of remorse but cant you see its not working. yn would’ve shown so much already if it was different but she isnt. and that’s because shes a mentally strong person.” sunghoon said as he felt bad for kazuha.

“i know i have no excuse for what i did, i jus think i was so blinded by the fact that i got it and she didn’t that i wanted her to feel bad. as if all her hardwork went for nothing and that she was useless. it felt so good being in power for once.” kazuha said. “i understand but you need to realise that not everyone is the way you are and how you think.” sunghoon said. “i hope you know this means im not forgiving you at all, but thank you for telling us all this. you need help kazuha. you’re not mentally okay” sunoo said as he sighed and left the gym.

“sunghoon?” kazuha said after they sat in a while in silence. “hm” he hummed. “im sorry” she said softly. sunghoon sighed and walked towards the door. “i shouldn’t be the one youre saying sorry to. youve caused years of healing to sudden be ripped open again. yn needs the apology not me. i hope you know management will be told about all this.” sunghoon said coldly as he left kazuha in the room alone.

[sootwilb]

Hello, i just wanted to say the post you made today that got like 3 mean comments? I agree with you. Im just a pussy hiding rn but I need to get my thoughts out somewhere. Feel free to ignore because idk how long it's gonna be lmao, I just want to talk to someone who feels the same way as me.

Biting, and not being very self aware at all, are very ND things. It's pretty bad that he didn't stop when she was in pain, but... this was 2 years ago. He's mentally ill. He's probably autistic. He isn't heartless, he isn't evil, he made a mistake and if he knows whats best for him he's learned from it.

It pisses me off that people are using this as an excuse to bring up his messy house, as if this- isnt the same guy who wrote a song about how he wants to jump in front of a train??? Mental health matters until they are messy! Because ew, who would want to look up to him?

I DO. I look up to him. I DON'T support him hurting his girlfriend at all. I really don't. But there's a lot more to it. This is the man who released an album in 2020 which kept me company. These songs brought me through my OCD diagnosis, my suicidal thoughts, and he helped make me realise I WASN'T ALONE. It's so empowering when someone you enjoy watching is open and honest about his mental health. Its nice to know whenever something happens to me, or I think something, I know- Wilbur has been here too.

So I won't be dropping him. I'll keep it on the lowdown. I genuinely can't stop loving him I always always will. Four years of the worst mental pain ever, and him being the only person who I felt genuinely understood by? I won't give that up. People who haven't been here would never get it. ABUSE IS NOT OKAY. But I need something to keep me going, and I'm not risking like- attempting suicide without it. I don't care how parasocial I sound. I really don't. He's been an advocate for mental health, he's been empowering for teenage girls.

And lastly, my dad has been falsely accused of abuse before. They straight up lied. So even if all the signs point to it, I will wait until wilbur and wilbur only, confirms it.

If you do end up posting this, hey guys who think I'm justifying abuse! I'm not. He's unwell. He's SICK. I will support him and he deserves love and he deserves to get better.

hello lovely anon! firstly i want to say im sorry you've been through all of that

wilbur is someone who is autistic and mentally and chronically ill, i hate that people are using this as an opportunity to villainise these traits when people who have them already get a bad reputation as it is. i hate that people support mental health until the person suffering from it is messy and makes mistakes. like ive said before wilbur doesn't deserve shunning he deserves support and help

feel free to dm me if you want to talk more about this anon

#sorry if this doesn't make much sense #im not very good at writing down my thoughts #anon

[teethkid67]

i havent said anything personally on the situation bc im not sure that its my place & not sure what my next move is .

first off shelby has been incredibly brave and as someone who doesn't watch her and hasnt ever, ive felt mostly that it was best for me to be supportive in a quiet way & that it wasnt my place to give my input . most of all i didnt want to reduce her solely to her abuse and "victimhood" as to me it feels extremely counterproductive to post only about that when she is obviously more than what she went through . it felt disingenuous to begin posting about it as if i was someone who's always cared about shubbles content when honestly im not . bc at the end of the day its not about me and its not about her abuser , its about shubble and ive never been a member of her community .

i dont want my silence to be interpreted as me not caring about the situation or not believing her because i do ; i don't want to speak where my voice isnt needed or could take away from others . from some of the responses ive been seeing though i feel its far more important to listen to and boost her voice than be quiet .

i dont want to talk about him because ultimately this is about platforming shelby and what shes gone through . that said i HAVE watched, posted about and supported her all-but-named abuser , so im involved at least on that level and i want to say i am horrified by the abuse shubble has described.

the general reaction to her coming forward i have seen on this site and others , from one end of the spectrum (she hasnt said his name so we cant know / its not that bad / blatant excuses and defense of him) to the other (leaktwt / posts about how hes always been a creep / jumping down the throats of anyone who words their thoughts in a way they deem wrong) has been horrifying to witness . some of the most unproductive commentary ive seen on an issue like this and i was here from cmc to drm .

im deeply upset and feel i should say somewhere that some of the shit ive seen is unacceptable and contradictory to shelbys initial point, which i understand to be 2 things: 1) highlighting how abuse is not always obvious, or 'normal', and ways to recognize these situations as a victim 2) to highlight her own personal experiences and to stop both her own abuser and others from being platformed .

mcytdom is NOTORIOUS for "drama" like this and similarly well-known for being unable to boost / listen to / BELIEVE victims or at least leave them the fuck alone . to anyone who's ever been groomed or abused, esp my mutuals who have received extremely insensitive messages and feedback in wake of this , my heart goes out to you and i hope you are doing alright & know how appreciated and strong you are . shelby, niki, and other victims of abuse should be listened to and celebrated for both their bravery and strength and for who they are as people .

on a more personal note heres ig what im going to do going forward

this is my blog & im not leaving it , wont be deleting any posts either , mutuals id love to stay in touch if youre moving out or moving on .

very likely ill still be here in the smp hell . just gonna have to see how i feel about it all . in the three and a half years ive been drawing reading and writing about these characters a lot has changed including my perspective . ultimately tho its not about me

general message i want to get across is that im glad shelby is healing and getting the help she needs, as well as doing well enough to help others recognize the signs . love you my mutuals and friends and followers . take care of yourselves

Ok so idk if ur ever gonna watch this show but just incase there are a ton of spoilers here, anyway chuck bass rant here we go:

So, in the pilot episode of the show we’re introduce to the main character of the show, serena, but that’s not who i wanna talk about. I wanna talk abt the ABSOLUTE SHITHEAD that is chuck bass. The first time we see him interact with serena, she’s drinking, obviously distraught after lying to her best friend. But bcs he’s the worse he comes up to her and tries to flirt, she immediately makes it clear she’s not interested and calls him a pig (also while he’s ‘flirting’ he says that he prefers a girl when she’s not talking, absolutely no red flags here.) But because she’s been drinking and isn’t in a right state of mind, she tells him she’s hungry and since they’re in a hotel his family owns they go into the kitchen. 

He pays all the chefs to leave so he and serena are alone. Serena raves abt the sand which and he says AND I QUOTE “Well, if you're looking for a way to thank me I've got a couple ideas.” and she rightfully tells him it’s just a sandwhich. He then tries to come onto her and she’s obviously scared. He then proceeds to try and blackmail her with the fact she slept with someone’s boyfriend. She tells him that she’s trying to change and that she isn’t that person anymore, ALL WHILE HES STILL FORCING HIMSELF ONTO HER. Serena kicks him in the balls like the girlboss she is, BUT THAT ISNT EVEN WHERE IT ENDS.

In the same fucking episode, he tries to take advantage of this girl, Jenny, because she’s like 14 and doesn’t know how to spot guys like that. He asks her to go somewhere private to ‘talk’ and i’m sure u can see where this is going. She then texts her brother, Dan, who is on a date with serena that she’s having problems with a guy, Dan goes to help her and Serena says she wants to come with him bcs she knows Chuck is dangerous. They reach the rooftop and Dan punches him like icon he is and they leave the party.

Most people’s excuse for these situations is “It was the pilot episode! They wanted to make him the villain back then!” Which would be an alr excuse IF HE DIDNT KEEP DOING IT.

A few seasons later, he sleeps with a 16 yr old jenny when he’s 20. When he and Serena become step-siblings he’s constantly making incest jokes and is STILL COMING ONTO HER. He attempts to hit his girlfriend, but thankfully misses, hitting the window behind her because he’s drunk, but still scaring her face with the glass shards. And so much more I can’t even remember right now, because it happens SO OFTEN.

During the time he does all of these things he’s supposed to be ‘redeemed’ and the writers are portraying him as a good guy who we should feel bad for and all his fans treat the fact that he fell in love with his girlfriend that he constantly abuses as some zuko level redemption arc.

Sry this is long and probably has a ton of grammar mistakes i wrote it in one go without going back to check anything. ANYWAY ALL THE HOMIES HATE CHUCK BASS, SRY FOR RANTKNG 😭 <34

(TW: SA & Rape)

What the fuck.

You can make abusive characters compelling and even likeable but this just ain't it.

[sunflowersturn]

GO S2 spoilers ahead. Like the worst kind, last scenes of the finale talk. Just have a thought that’s bothering me.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people talking about what Aziraphale really meant/his true intentions/his reasons for saying what he said/making his decisions. I’ve seen a lot of people saying, oh, Aziraphale meant he wanted to make heaven a place that could deserve Crowley. He wasn’t trying to tell him he wasn’t enough as he was. He truly does love him But His Purest Intentions Are Getting In His Way. The coffee was drugged.

All those theories and postulations are fine and good but I just want to jump in and say… I kind of think Crowley ISNT enough for Aziraphale right now. Him being a demon still IS a problem in their relationship, and it always will be as long as Aziraphale clings so much to HIS identity as an angel.

I saw some great meta from @weaver-z about what could have been motivating Aziraphale’s decisions in the finale, and she has some experience with the same kind of religious traumas Aziraphale is going through right now to back that up. I think she’s right, 100%. Aziraphale is still completely entrenched in thinking that Heaven should be home, and everyone should want to be an angel. Even if a part of him knows it’s not true, he has to cling to it because he still hasn’t accepted that he won’t be accepted.

Zira wants so, so badly to be Good and Righteous that he rots away Elspeth’s dug-up corpse so she can’t sell it, basically taking food out of her mouth. He wants so, so badly to be Good and Righteous that he then aids, abets, and approves of grave robbing in an attempt to make it up to her. He wants so, so badly to be Good and Righteous that he wastes the little time he has left to save wee Morag defending himself to Crowley, who wouldn’t have stopped him anyway, and he knows it.

There’s a reason those scenes were included this season.

And, look, I’m not trying to excuse anything he did, but those things do not make Aziraphale a terrible person. He is really and truly trying his best to help as much as he can and cause as little hurt as possible, but he keeps getting baited back in to Heaven with the promise that he’ll be able to make things Right. There is no ‘learning your lesson’ when it comes to trauma and recovery, the process is not linear. You can get burned over and over—because they told you the burning sensation was normal and to keep holding on.

Aziraphale’s problem has always been that he cannot separate himself from his identity as an angel. Crowley told him to be an angel who goes along with Heaven as far as he can and while it is, in essence, what he ends up doing he can’t accept the reality of it because if he gives up that identity, if he admits that he’s not actually Good and Righteous—then he has to accept responsibility for the things he’s done in the name of it. He has to accept that he’s let some people die when he should not have because he was going along with Heaven’s plan. He has to accept that he has hurt some people who did not deserve to be hurt for the sake of a greater good that never existed. He has to accept responsibility for things that he has no way of asking for forgiveness for and that is a terrifying, terrifying prospect.

I do believe that Aziraphale loves Crowley. I believe he wants them to be together, and safe, and happy. But he believes they can achieve that in Heaven right now, when the truth is that both of them are far too individually-minded and compassionate to ever be able to find happiness there, together or not.

What's your favorite thing about MirAvi or like top five favorite things about them as a couple/ship?

god i love love LOVE just the parallels with them..... like ive always been a "miranda is deeply traumatized and Not Fucking Okay" truther for YEARS but only after getting into aaravi's angle and her story did i realize theyre pretty much two sides to the same coin, two ways to respond to the same trauma and try to keep Going On from all of it. and for the two of them to be so marked by a profound loneliness and a lack of understanding on how to even begin filling that on top of a denial of BEING lonely or upset in the first place? mwah. mwah mwah mwah.

the character study aspect. like ive made my irritation known prior about the common fandom habit of mashing two characters together without truly considering their personalities, and i think to do that with either miranda or aaravi is a crime. they have such STRONG personalities and absolutely would have just SO MANY reactions to and feelings about the other that its like mixing volatile chemicals together just to see what happens. theyre going to bounce off of each other for sure but seeing HOW they bounce off of each other is so deeply delightful for me that you just KNOW theres not a boring moment for them. maybe moments where theres a lull in the energy, but in such a directed and specific way that even getting into the domestic with them is exciting.

hey so you know how aaravi is dedicated to managing to kill an outer god just to show everyone that it can be done, and how the slayers were originally set up to minimize eldritch influence and corruption, and how the merkingdom is now canonically dedicated to fighting and staving off the influence of the eldritch as much as possible? yeah. even just beyond this being weirdly relevant to my highly canon divergent lore i think its just Neat how this is a direct parallel between them in the mess that is roadtrip

i sincerely think aaravi needs someone to just, unironically, no catch, with her whole heart, absolutely meaning every word, praise her and compliment her. just... i need this for her. i love to see it crop up again and again in every little thing miri does for and with aaravi and how genuinely she loves aaravi because aaravi has had so LITTLE of this in her life. its always come with someone trying to push her further, trying to put her down, even the best compliments are halfhearted or still holding her up as failing an impossible standard. teasing her for being a failgirl is fun and all but i feel like it often goes far beyond teasing and instead sits at how most people actually view aaravi, and that SUCKS. having someone with whom that doesnt even come to mind would be so good for aaravi. no other references. nothing for her to be compared against. no hero trope that she is or isnt fulfilling. just a princess who is actually sincerely taking everything aaravi says to heart and listening to her and paying attention to her. so many times ive been writing them and have aaravi be DESTROYED by miranda saying she wants to protect HER like how aaravi protects miranda, or that she feels too safe around aaravi to even really consider that she might hurt her, or just genuinely trusting aaravi with her whole heart. its SO cathartic. absolutely fantastic.

this is self evident but being given an excuse to go whole ham fleshing miranda out and giving her weight as a character and history and complexity. i already talk so much about how fanon (and now canon....) gets miranda wrong and this is fully an excuse to talk about all of that. there is absolutely no way you could NOT talk about it, once you get into how they interact and bounce off of each other, and how the relationship forms, and what their expectations and wants are for that relationship. miranda is sincerely a very fun character to ship with because its never just ONLY about her. her kingdom is such a major player in all of her relationships that you HAVE to consider her standing in it, and what the merkingdom thinks of her partner, and what the merkingdom would demand of both of them, and how the other royals would react, and the culture clash, and just MWAH. PERFECTION. love love LOVE them both getting an "its complicated" for their life and family history and i just want to mash them both together into a horrible conflicting stew that they have to navigate and navigate together because it was already so hard on their own but at least now they have someone else in the same boat. love for them to make it work and see how they get out of it. together.

#all the care guide says is 'biomass' #miravi.txt #monster prom #asks #they BOTH have the worlds most fucked up families and huge complexes about it #and have killed people in their name and yes are maybe still clinging to that #because it makes them special and if they arent special then theyre worthless #im a big fan of characters who are NOT stable at all managing to make stability with each other #and to see the self in the other and do the things that they wish someone had done for them #i think aaravi should grab miri and show her how to wash the dishes #i think they should fall in love with the mundane as people who were never allowed to have that #and i think they should fight tooth and nail just to be able to finally relax at the end of it all #i think miranda should be so supportive and excited and want to help with aaravi's foodtruck

i saw a poll about agnes ships before so. i am going to talk about agnes ships now (spoiler: i dont really like any of them sorry)

first her and jack. eugene says he thinks it was an expression of her doubt, and im inclined to agree. at that point, agnes was seriously doubting her place in the lightless flame (see: her suicide not long after meeting him), so i feel like she probably wanted an escape and when he asked her out it was the perfect opportunity. also she was pretty distant in all of her dates with him, so it kinda looks like she just wanted an excuse to get away from the lightless flame for an afternoon rather than actually wanting to get to know him.

ok jude. i kinda go back and forth over whether i think they were ever a thing or not but like if they were or not. theres no way they were healthy right?? for one jude sees agnes as an actual goddess and that isnt really the basis for a functioning relationship. plus, imo being treated like that (instead of as an actual person) is why agnes felt so uncomfortable with the lightless flame, so being with the person who's arguably the most devoted probably wouldnt be great for her.

gertrude i like aesthetically. i think its fun. i think if they met earlier and on better terms theyd probably go on a date and have tea and maybe kiss. i dont really ship them tho. id maybe read a fic about them, and i understand their appeal as foils for each other, but i dont really think gertrude would be good for agnes. idk, i think the main thing for me is that gertrude is too far into things at basically every point in her life, whereas what i want for agnes is to get away from that

imo the best ship for agnes is just some random woman. ive already talked about this a little in the web!agnes post but i think she deserves a normal life with a normal person (not jack tho. sorry). and that normal person should be a woman bc agnes deserves to be gay.

i really like the idea of her getting away from all the avatars and whatever stuff theyre dealing with. she should get to live in peace, and imo any ship with someone in podcast wouldnt let her have that.

anyway that is my. opinion on agnes ships. obviously not trying to come for anyones ship here, yall are cool and ur ships are very cool.

u can tell me if u think i mischaracterised ur favourite ship or if i missed one. im prepared to admit if im wrong just know that im probably not

#jokes aside i am very willing to here other peoples opinions on this! #i have nothing against agnes ships and am very welcome to having my opinion changed #i just have a lot of thoughts on this #and this blog is basically me talking at length about my opinions on agnes at this point #also yes i managed to sneak a shameless web!agnes plug in there u cant stop me #u can read the web!agnes post tho #i have it pinned #tma #the magnus archives #agnes montague #jude perry #gertrude robinson #agnesblogging #<<< thought id make a tag cause its a regular occurrence at this point #lightless speaks

Hello! Curious about your take on Stampede hammering in that Vash and Meryl are similar. I 100% want this version to finally go there, but so far, I'm only noticing Meryl being intrigued and maybe crushing on him a bit. Although they did seem to hit it off magnificently when she tied him up and started yanking him around--and he was actually into it loooool. Sorry for vomiting in your inbox, so many ideas about this show, and not a lot of people to bounce them off of.

yes! thank u omg i wanted an excuse to talk about it ok so the main thing that made me go 👀❓️ was roberto's "hes like you: not long for this world" comment which i at first went yknow whatever hes a cynical old man hes making a jab at them both its not that deep, but then we reverse a wee bit to meryls instant willingness to help him, before she sees him as a criminal or a threat hes just some guy and she wants to help, which is exactly the thing vash would do and the same way vash treats people

the military police shoved his wanted poster in her face and she pointed them elsewhere, instead opting to Talk to him, yes its bc its literally their current Job to interview him but she immediately figured there was something deeper going on, she wanted to hear his side, specifically thinking she can prove him innocent which is really on point with vash's ideology

also i totally agree that she looks at him like she wants to wrap him up warm and pet his hair but i think her tendency to look at him with glittery eyes and parted lips is also partly bc she sees him, she knows hes hiding something, like in the manga i think her attraction to him isnt superficial, its bc shes looking at him and seeing someone whos hurt and broken and she wants to get to the bottom of it bc she understands him

yes they havent been thru the same things, their experiences are so different, they are so different but their tendency to see a person first, to try their best to understand and help people before anything else is really clear in stampede and im eating it up

#thanks so much for this ask i did wanna talk about it #trigun #vashmeryl

[yuukei-yikes]

That post str Harutaka angst hurts my heart a little but I do want it

HEH. CONFLICT IS SO FUN OKAY. haruka and takane get along too well i need a little something to have fun with.... also thank u for sending this im totally using it as an excuse to talk about it. i went crazy in this ask sorry

ok. i KNOW forward by winterhats exists...... and thank god it does 🙏in case u havent read it erm read it. thats like harutaka content 101... not to spoil stuff but something about haruka not telling takane abt his condition Does take place in that fic. but the thing with that fic is haruka has no memories.... (post str no memory haruka is a concept i was never a fan of bc it doesnt rly make sense to me?? Still love forward though🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏) SO IM THINKING OF a canon situation with haruka remembering fine yknow...

logically i think takane would be sad rather than angry once finding out. also she'd hear it from shintaro who is the only one who knew, aside from kenjirou but he's x_x post str💔 so shintaro it is. also it's such a shintaro thing to do isnt it?? accidentally mention it to takane or assume she knew and realise he messed up like, way too late. like he already said it like 5 times before he realised takane is asking him to repeat it so many times precisely because SHE DIDN'T KNOW

like i said i think its kinda a fragile thing because God its so sad. how could u even get mad at someone for choosing not to say they're dying. so yeah logically takane Would be mostly sad about both the sad reality haruka was living AND how she wasn't told, because to her it means haruka didnt trust her or maybe felt he couldnt count on her.

im abt to overanalyse: personally from a writing point of view i think the reason haruka doesnt tell takane is because headphone actor was already written and the narrative where takane doesnt know was already there. haruka's 1 year to live thing was written a lot after, with over the dimension. but besides that: from a character standpoint, of course haruka wouldn't tell takane. she is the last person he wants to worry and the one he wants the most happy memories with. and something important about haruka and takane's relationship is the fact neither knows much about each others conditions. in both their povs upon introducing each other to the audience, they both explain their illnesses briefly. they both say "i havent asked much". to me its always been about haruka and takane deeply relating to each other about people feeling sorry for them. so they dont owe each other the explanations theyre so used to giving to others! so to me, haruka doesnt tell takane because 1.he doesnt want her to worry more than she already does 2.he wants to have happy memories of her 3. related to that, doesnt want her to look at him differently. she is the one person who gets it. if he were to come clean abt it, he'd lose it. besides, haruka tells shintaro by the time he's like. LOSING HIS MIND and really deeply depressed abt the situation. kenjirou also knows... but haruka's father could've told him since its mentioned they used to be colleagues. personally i think haruka told him himself, since he also mentions kenjirou is the only adult he's ok sharing stuff with, so in a way its implied if ur delusional like me.

erm. anyways. i got a little sidetrack IM GONNA GET TO IT OKAY its just, haruka's dying words for takane man. don't cry anymore, you're gonna meet so many new people, etc. he basically tells her he is just 1 person in the long long life he assumes she will have. theyre best friends, he knew takane would mourn him terribly and thats why he thinks all that stuff he cant actually tell her.. augh haruka's goodbye to takane always gets me so so badly. bc he KNEW... like, ene lives in so much regret for not telling haruka how she felt but haruka died knowing she loved him. even if he didnt know it was romantic, he still knew she loved him :( i was going somewhere with this. (pacing around my room) oh yeah. his dying words. haruka doesn't convey all this to takane while he has the chance because of the stuff i said before but the most important was number 3. he doesnt want takane to look at him differently. plus everything he says while he is dying... god id post the whole screenshot. but he says "dont get mad at anyone but me" "please dont cry anymore" "im so sorry youve given me so much and i couldnt give back" he... doesn't Want to see takane upset. he knows she will be upset anyway but its like. at least he wont be around to see it, in a way. we could see this as kind of selfish but like The guy's dying come ON. i think he has the right to do that. lol.

WELLLL COMING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL APPROACH LMAO.. takane finding out post str....... i went on that tangent to defend haruka precisely cuz i dont think takane would be genuinely mad. its a tricky situation and its not like she can be like WELL BUT U KNEW AND U DIDNT WARN ME!?!?!?!? Like THAT IS a pretty lame position to take. HOWEVER. CONFLICT (PUTS HANDS DOWN) i think takane just needs to be mad

WHILE TAKANE WOULD BE MORE UPSET THAN MAD she IS also super impulsive. like insanely impulsive <- finds out she loves haruka and immediately runs for it even if it terrified her. so in the spur of the moment she blows up on haruka about it LOL like as SOON as she finds out. like i imagine she probably hears it from shintaro and like immediately leaves mid conversation to go find haruka and yell at him. that kind of thing.

and haruka's all like 😨😨😨 and he's stuttering cuz HE HAS AN ANSWER ABT WHY HE DIDNT TELL HER IT JUST SOUNDS RLY BAD LIKE "ERM I DIDNT WANT TO SEE U UPSET❤️" like in over the dimension haruka does get pretty nervous when takane starts pressing even if its as a joke. so especially with something so sensitive he has no idea what to do. i think he'd try to be all composed though bc its Post Str and idk str haruka is so. ethereal he is so calm isn't he. i think he would get nervous initially and then get himself together but ends up coming off as dismissive. so hes like i didnt tell you.....because i didnt want to❤️ and takane probably just needed to be mad for a little bit and was gonna get over it and be sad but hearing that just makes her so damn upset for realsies and haruka notices how she changed from😡 to 😐 and hes immediately like oh takane.... no... i didnt mean it like that...i just mean...OH DONT MAKE THAT FACE I DIDNT MEAN IT... and takane's like NOO DONT TOUCH ME WHATEVER IM LEAVINGGG unnecessary conflict in a romcom vibes

conflict probably lasts like. a day or something. a week tops. its harder for haruka than for takane. takane finds it a little refreshing i think its also cool to link it to all the other headcanons abt haruka being super desperate to be in company because erm Daze confinement gang🙏💥 while takane's a little like. i havent had a minute to myself in 11 days. so this distance actually helps her a little while haruka is like Hour 5 without my girlfriend I've cried so much i cant see anymore

they both feel like shit and do spend the time trying to see the situation from each other's perspectives though so takane realises she's being self centered and stupid and admits she just wanted to be angry and took it out on the first thing she could grasp at. but it was unfair. takane will apologize first and probably tells him she doesn't need or want him to "protect" her feelings and wants him to count on her from now onward. haruka's like *nod nod nod nod nod nod* and thanks her for apologizing. hed try to also apologize but takane doesnt accept it bc he wasnt wrong it was her who was unfair. hehe. i think he'd be crying so hard too bc to him its all these feelings coming back abt how he felt when he died and all the things he thought of telling her then. maybe he would tell her abt it, like i was thinking about all the people you'd meet and how u should be happy and not cry for me. and how in disbelief he still is that theyre together. sorry im. auauggagaggsgsggqgggg

all this just for me 2 enjoy the mental image of the little time in between where theyre awkward around each other and takane wants a little distance for a bit. i think itd be funny to see haruka being totally pathetic abt takane not paying attention to him. anyways. yeah. something like that i guess

you're really funny and i love all the random personal posting u do. i am not a baseball fan, but i feel like if i watched a game w u i would like it 300% more

Thank you! I will use this ask as an excuse to keep obnoxiously personal-posting forever! You're welcome and I'm sorry!

The thing about baseball is, when I was a kid, my mom's best friend would always talk about baseball players' butts, and it was so upsetting and mortifying to me because obviously baseball isnt about butts, you know? But as I've gotten older I've realized that she was right all along and that baseball is at least 60% about butts.

"you’re soooo disgusted by incest that you’re willing to harass people who talk about it, but not disgusted enough to stop funding the company that continues producing content you’re supposedly so disgusted by? Miss me with that shit" you forgot that here is the 3dr category, the people who do boycott but bully others for not doing it. Like the people who bullied streamers who bought Hogwarts Legacy (i don't play the game nor care for it but damn)

That asides, Fe incest is limited to subtext between siblings that never go far, incest protrayed as wrong in several games and if it's the Avatar, you have the game's excuse to explain why it technically isnt' because Fe games are targeted at teens so they can't go too far with it, just like they have to be careful with the fanservice within the game.

Also, forgot to say this, but they'd also have to boycott greek mythology or mythology in general. And historical text such as Cleopatra marrying her brother (though t'was political) or the famous rumors about the Borgia family though it turn out to be false but never prevented people to use it in fictions (cough, cough Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas)

Oh boy someone's giving me the opportunity to talk about the stupid wizard game it's my lucky day!

I'm not going to argue that harassment didn't happen to streamers who played the game, but I was pretty deep in the sauce following the fallout for this and 99.9999999999999999999999% of the commentary I saw was just people saying basic shit like "trans rights", telling the streamer that they were disappointed in their decision to purchase and play the game on stream and they would not be watching/following any longer, and pointing out that your $60 to trans lifeline wasn't gonna do jack shit compared to the disgusting amount of influence JK has.

(Just so everyone is clear... I, you know, I agree with these statements. Especially that last point, that "but I donated $60 to trans lifeline!" is a placebo to make yourself feel like you've done something to counterbalance. A dollar in JKR's pocket is worth a hundred in trans lifeline's, because JKR has a fuckton of money she can throw at anything she wants to support or oppose, is friends with people in government who will listen to her, and despite the backlash she's still an incredibly well known, influential person. Streamers and Youtubers are even worse tbh, because not only did they put money in JKR's pockets, they're now actively advertising and profiting off of the game. Why don't you put all of the profits you make from your streams toward trans lifeline too, if you're such an ally?)

And this is not something where I was just going into pro-trans-people-should-be-allowed-to-live circles. I was looking at compilations from supporters of the streamers trying to condemn people for the hate, and this was the kind of thing people were pulling up. Now I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty sure when you're trying to demonstrate that brutal harassment is happening, you go for the most fucked up shit you can find. Sooooo if that's the best they were coming up with, either their perception of what constitutes harassment is grievously warped, or they genuinely couldn't find anything harder than someone on twit with a trans flag in their display name saying "trans rights". Which is... telling.

I did, however, see a lot of really disgusting harassment from transphobes leaving hateful shit on youtube videos and tweets from trans creators! You can find it pretty easily, actually, it's literally all over any trans creator's videos speaking up about the game. Even chill ones that were like "I'm not saying you're a bad person for buying this game, but you're not my ally" which, you know. Yeah.

So like, you know, ~cis opinions~ and all, but kiiiiiiiinda feels like maybe one side was blatantly trying to martyr streamers based on some critique they received and maybe a small group of bad actors harassing them to motivate and justify harassment of trans people. Which, you know, if you've ever been a member of a marginalized community, should be an extremely familiar tactic to you by now.

And the thing that really fucks me off is that it's not hard to enjoy the stupid wizard game without putting money into the pockets of someone who literally wants their fellow humans dead. This is a very rare instance in life where you actually can have your cake and eat it too. Just buy it used, I've been saying that for months. The profit from used games go entirely to the store you purchased them from. And hey, another reason to not let physical die out! It requires that someone, somewhere buy it new first, but let's be real we all know that people were gonna buy the stupid wizard game and there was nothing we were gonna be able to do to stop them.

That's what I was going to do if the game piqued my interest (which tbh, the more I saw of it the less interested in actually playing it at some point I got. I mean I like the stupid wizard world as much as the next Zilennial but they aren't selling me shit unless it's a cozy wizard school life sim. There aren't even romance options! That's like half the reason to play a not!Bioware game! And I don't want to play a stupid 15 year old. And I've heard all of the outfits are atrocious and I'm sorry, I'm a fashion over function player.)

Also, while I'm ranting, here's an unpopular opinion for you: the blatant dick sucking by review outlets of one of the most mid looking games of 2023 was excruciatingly painful to watch. Did you see some of those reviews? Fucking ridiculous. "There's only six spells, the texture pop in is godawful, the game runs like shit, the world is boring. 9/10". Like yeah I get that review outlets are naturally going to be biased toward positive reviews so they can continue getting early access and perks, but GOD they could at least pretend. And it'll still probably get GotY because it's the wizard IP you remember from when you were a kid! Member? I member!

[lunatic-fandom-space]

Oh god, Im five minutes into the Shanghai Special and I definitely remember reading salt posts about this at some point, but I completely forgot that the inciting incident of Marinette wanting to go there was to follow Adrien and that she basically used going to visit her uncle as the excuse which is bad, especially considering Adrien is the whitest boy alive and the show does this weird thing where he knows chinese culture better than Marinette and knows how to speak the language better than Marinette and his family has more personal connections to the chinese miracle box than Marinette's, like, it looks really bad

But the reason Im making this post is actually because I wanted to talk a little about the way they handle Marinette being part of a, idk if this is the best way to phrase this, non-dominant culture. Im phrasing it like that because Im white and the child of two immigrants from the same country, so Im not getting into the additional nuances of being biracial or even of belonging to two different cultures here

First off, I think its fine that Marinette isnt super in-touch with the chinese side of things because she doesnt like, live there and her parents dont seem to be encouraging her to get in touch with it. Im in pretty much the same situation and I actually find it pretty relatable that she doesnt interact too much with her culture outside of like, food mostly. It is a shame because we couldve had something interesting with her initially not being interested in learning more about chinese culture and only researching it and ancient china to find out more about the Miraculous, but then a genuine desire to reconnect with that part of herself starts to grow from that, but I dont think its the biggest deal in the world

The thing that bothers me the most is that they not only basically had Adrien 'be better' at her own culture than Marinette, she doesnt react to it all beyond maybe being like "oh hes so talented" and its like. Im having a lot of trouble putting this into words, but I'll try anyway

When youre the child of immigrants especially and youre not very in-touch with your/your parents' culture, dont really speak the language, dont participate in any traditions and then you meet other immigrant-kids from the same country/culture and they do speak the language and are overall way more in-touch with it than you are, theres this incredible sense of embarassment that I could never explain to people who are, idk, unicultural ? is that a word I should use here? And like, with other people from a similar background theres atleast this sense of solidarity yknow, but with people who are not from there and who are maybe just good at the language and know the culture bc culture lessions are a pretty big part of most language learning lessions.... its a bit different I would imagine. I say 'I would imagine' bc my parents are from a russian-speaking country and we live in germany and, while a lot of schools here will offer some kind of voluntary russian lessions (atleast in my area) most of those are attended by immigrant-kids trying to learn or relearn their language and Ive never met someone who was born here without a russian or post-soviet background who knew russian beyond a few words and who was well versed in russian culture and the cultures of ex-soviet countriws.

However, if I did meet a person like that, I would probably be pissed. Thats obviously not the case for all immigrants and I think the reason why the thought of people not from 'my' culture being "better" at it than I am honestly relates to some deep personal baggage I have because I started crying when I wrote that previous section. And like, its good to learn other languages and to learn about other cultures, please dont let this post discourage you in any way, this is just because of some personal stuff that I dont want to share here.

My point here is, there are intense and complex emotions attached to your family's culture, even if you dont participate in it yourself for whatever reasons you may have. I dont like that its just being swept under the rug for Marinette because the writers would rather have her drool over an intensely bland guy than even begin to address how awful it feels to not be able to communicate with or understand a memeber of your own family due to cultural differences and because you just didnt keep in touch.

Thats it, if you're biracial or you were raised in a multi-cultured home and you have thoughts about this, please share them because I'd love to hear them!

Good evening Bridgy. I humbly submit a request for the next chapter of Transfer Student Weiss Redux. That is all. Please.

Weiss felt class drag on as she listened to Professor Port tell yet another story from his youth that seemed to have almost nothing to do with what she was supposed to be learning. Sure, it was only the third day of class for her at Beacon, and Professor Port had to know something about what he was doing if he was teaching classes like this. Though, looking at her teammates, she felt she was faring better. Yang was practically asleep, Ruby was busy drawing in her notebook, and then Blake just seemed, well, bored and out of it seemed to be the only way she could describe her. 

The alarm on Weiss’s scroll rang just as the bell did to end class, and she couldnt be happier for class to end. She quickly packed her things into her backpack and started to head to the door, only to stop as she heard Ruby ask her a question. 

“Are you going to join us for our study session today?” 

Yang yawned and smiled a bit at Weiss. “Yeah Weiss, you going to join us this time? We play a few board games to help study and pass the time so we’re not too bored.” 

“I think I'm going to pass,” Weiss answered plainly as she adjusted the strap to her backpack. “Besides, playing games isnt really studying. Its just wasting time that could be used to perfect your skills.” 

“And what skills are you perfecting on your own?” Blake asked as she stood up. “Ever since you transferred here, you’ve been avoiding us. Going off on your own to train, keeping away from us when we study… part of what we need to be doing is acting like a team.” 

“And we are a team,” Weiss answered. *Just not my team.* The simple thought pierced through her mind and heart as the world around her almost seemed to shift to the camp she and her team had set while on a training mission. She could almost feel the cool air and the warmth of the fire… and then the cold, steel blades that cut across her eye, the yells of her teammates as they were dragged off and one was killed in front of her. Her fingers tightened around the strap of her bag and she nearly jumped as she felt a hand on her shoulder, quickly reaching to her side for the rapier that wasnt on her hip. 

Ruby pulled back a step and looked at Weiss. “Are you okay?” 

“I-I’m fine,” Weiss lied between a few breaths as she tried to calm her nerves. Her hand quickly reached into her pocket to grab the small bottle of anxiety pills she carried on her, checking her scroll before taking another pill to make sure she was keeping up on the dosage. “I just need to… need to…” her eyes wandered as she looked around the room for another excuse to avoid her team, not willing to let herself get  close enough to this one to let them get killed because of her too. “I’m late for an appointment with the nurse. So if you’ll excuse me-” 

“Oh come on! It’ll be fine!” 

Weiss felt herself get pulled out of the classroom and down the hall by Ruby. Her legs couldnt seem to stop, and as she watched her team leader and listened to her talk, it became clear where she failed as a leader herself. Unlike Ruby, she tried to keep herself at perfection at all times, doing her best to keep her form perfect and to be a perfect leader, but Ruby… Ruby didnt seem to care at all if anything she did was perfect, she only cared about making sure her team was working together. As if she could see the parts that each person could play within her plans like cogs in a machine. Finally, a sigh left Weiss’s lips and she managed to pull her wrist free from Ruby’s grasp. “Dont you think this is a bit… childish?” 

“Childish?” Ruby asked. “What do you mean?” 

“I mean, we’re supposed to act like adults. But the way you, Yang, and Blake carry on with studying with games feels like all you know how to do is act like children.” 

“Its just easier for me to study if I have something else to do with it. Penny was the one who…” 

Weiss watched as Ruby pause in her sentence and took a breath to calm herself, catching a glimpse of heartache and pain before seeing the cheery smile come back to her face. 

“I’ll set up the board game at the library and if you want to join us, you can. Will that be okay Weiss?” 

Weiss nodded. “Yeah, that’ll be fine.” She pulled out her scroll as Ruby practically raced off with her semblance, looking through the notes she had on her teammates once more, trying to figure out who Penny was. She practically jumped once more as she heard Blake and Yang call out to her, slowly turning to face them. 

“Where did Ruby go?” Yang asked. “You didnt yell at her again, did you?” 

“She’s at the library,” Weiss answered, a small pause between her words. “Who’s Penny?” 

Yang sighed and started to walk past Weiss. “Blake, can you get Weiss back to the dorm? I’m going to check on Ruby!” 

Weiss pulled away from Yang to get out of her way and hesitated for a moment as she watched the blonde run off. “Was it something I said?” 

“No… well… yes…” Blake sighed and motioned for Weiss to follow. “Penny is still a sore spot for Ruby and Yang. She was a friend of theirs and came to Beacon with them, even getting onto our team for a day. Then, she got sick and was just… gone. We spent our first semester trying to figure out what happened to her but it was as if she never existed. Her home was gone, destroyed in a fire, all records of her at Beacon were lost, and Ruby was devastated.” 

Weiss nodded and walked behind Blake, putting her scroll back into her pocket. “What… what if I can try to help find her?” 

“And how do you think you can do that?” 

“There are Schnee Dust Company outlets in every kingdom, some of them connected with the hospitals in partnership with us. I can see if I can pull a few strings to find her.” 

“And why would you do that?” 

Weiss paused in her step for a moment, not sure how to answer that question. Why would she do something like that for Ruby? She barely knew the girl, didnt entirely trust her team yet with as little as she knew about them, and yet, it almost came easily to her to suggest that she could help. “Because I… I know what its like to lose someone. And maybe… maybe getting a little information for her will help.” 

Blake turned to look at Weiss, almost apologetic. “And if it doesnt help her?” 

“Only one way to find out, right?” Weiss put up a fake smile to Blake. “Besides, I… probably should try to spend a bit more time around you all than I have. Especially if we’re going to be teammates.”

Do you have any Enforcers ship specific hcs? Because I ship those 3 together and I love that Ratso is this big intimidating looking dude with 'scary dog privilege' when he's in fact the nicest one out of those three, and Chow and Finn are more likely to fuck you up because they're both feral and out for blood

1: It took them like, moving in together, working for years, and saving eachother from supernatural mayhem for any of them to realise; "Oh shit, Im in love with them both???"

Ratso was the first to address his feelings head on. Chow and Finn are the type to let feelings fester silently. Ratso brought up the thought of romantic feelings during a quiet night at the apartment. Chow and Finn immediately unraveled when they learned that the others felt the same. Spiderman pointing meme of feelings.

After confessions, things are notably more relaxed between the three. Ratso is a very physically affectionate person, and forgets sometimes that kissing your homies might draw attention at work. Finn meanwhile reciprocates at 200% - you dont just kiss this man and walk away. Chow is a little reserved pda wise cus any physical affection activates a full-body blush and heart-eyes.

Finn is the one who serenades the other two. Like he'll feel sappy one day and pull out the ol' guitar. The other two are ridiculously flattered.

Chow and Finn cant cook lol. Ratso mostly does day-to-day cooking. They still tried baking him something on his birthday. Ratso cried in appriciation.

Their nephews found out on accident (always knock first before coming into their apartment, kids), and they are delighted cus it gives them an excuse to all hang out together. The kids start refering to eachother as Cousins after a while.

Their respective families react differently. Chow isnt really in contact much with his parents so he says nothing to them, though his brother sends him a thumbs up of support when he hears about it from Charlie. Finn lets it slip while talking with one of his sisters and within 3 hours the whole bloodline knows. Finn turns his phone on silent for the rest of the week until they all calm down. Ratso's mom knew he was gay, and sobbed so happily that he found someone. His mom was a little confused that he was dating two people mutually, but she proudly refers to Finn and Chow as her "future-son-in-laws".

Valmont... doesnt care?? He's gay too, big whoop that his henchmen are together. He a little jealous cus he hasnt had a romance in literal years.

The Chan Clan are supportive. Torhu knew they were a thing even before they did. Tohru: "I know. Why are you announcing it now? Wait... is there a wedding? CAN I BE BEST MAN?!". The trio spend the rest of the visit talking down an emotionally excited Torhu and Jade.
