#like it's just unnecessary drama

[yourhighness6]

I've seen a lot of people say that Zutara would just work in the live action if they eliminated Aang's crush on Katara in the first couple seasons and NO. no no no no NO. I want Zutara to happen as much as the next person, but I think Aang's crush should stay intact. If they include the want vs need plot line introduced in "The Guru" in book 2, it could be an easy way to launch some much needed character development for Aang. Having him struggle with letting go of an unreciprocated crush at the beginning of book 3 might actually be a jumping off point for what Bryke tried to do with his arc in the final book, making him seem wiser, more mature, and assertive without coming off as a complete jerk like he did in the animated series.

#like I get what they were trying to do #but it was just such bad writing #like it's just unnecessary drama #which they hopefully won't have time for in the live action if they stick to the eight episode per season cap #I love aang I want him to get the arc he deserved #not whatever crap Bryke thought they were acing or whatever #atla #avatar the last airbender #zutara #katara #aang #anti bryke #everything i post is anti bryke #I will never forgive them for making me care about characters and then not giving them satisfying endings #its like divergent but worse

Hypothesis: Aziraphale HATES that Crowley is living in his car.

Supporting evidence:

The very first thing we see him do in the present is stop Maggie from moving out and making sure she feels welcome to stay as long as she likes.

He clearly knows Crowley’s unhappy before anything happens in the plot: “Does it calm you down?”. And also clearly feels helpless about it. Enter the conspicuous Eccles cakes: Aziraphale’s offer, which is rejected.

Crowley’s obviously, for all his hedging, spending a lot of time at the bookshop— so much that he has his own glasses perch and feels immediately comfortable removing them. See also: “Technically my bookshop but we both get plenty of use out of it”, “Why don’t you wait inside? You like waiting inside”.

It’s Crowley who immediately shoves the box of plants into Aziraphale’s arms after Aziraphale returns from Scotland.

Speaking of Scotland, why wouldn’t Aziraphale take the train? Why insist on driving the Bentley? Is it perhaps because he wants to get Crowley and his plants into the shop, and thinks if he creates a situation where Crowley has to stay there, maybe he won’t immediately leave again?

He’s got an empty bedroom and an apparently pathological need to make the person staying there very comfortable, creating cute little customized souvenirs like he’s an Air B&B host (displacement!).

He immediately jumps to having Gabriel stay with him— he didn’t have to. Arguably, both Gabriel and Aziraphale would be safer if Gabe stayed elsewhere.

That’s what I’ve got for now but I’m sure there’s more. Throughout the show, watch what Aziraphale gives to others and does for others, and it’ll tell you what he wants to do for Crowley. He’s living so deeply in displacement in makes him come across as manic and brittle.

(What probably happened is Aziraphale offered the spare bedroom and Crowley, who unconsciously didn’t want to be his roommate or sleep in a single bed with Aziraphale right downstairs because how could the poor lovesick boy cope with that, told him he wasn’t a “good deed” for Aziraphale to do and stormed off.)

Conclusion: Aziraphale asked Crowley to stay at his place, immediately and probably repeatedly. They had a row about it, and Crowley refused, and to this day Aziraphale doesn’t understand why.

And it hurts him.

#this might be the start of a longer meta about Aziraphale feeling rejected by Crowley repeatedly throughout this season #being made to feel like he’s doing the wrong thing or not good enough #they’re fracturing apart before the season even starts #all because they both fear rejection so much that Crowley preemptively rejects Aziraphale and Aziraphale is afraid to push #look at the projection and displacement and you’ll see what’s really going on #ineffable husbands #good omens #good omens meta #the awkward homeless Crowley situation #it’s absolutely manufactured and unnecessary #Crowley’s literally circling Aziraphale #and Aziraphale just wants him to come inside #good omens season two #good omens season 2 #renew good omens #just so they can finally have a talk about how Crowley is such a drama queen he lived in his car for three years

🖤: Which character is not as morally good as everyone else seems to think?

i feel like it's often overlooked how brooke was, in the very least, a bystander to chloe's bullying. i don't remember if there were any specific instances of her being more of an active participant but realistically she would've felt pressured by chloe to do so. did she ever want to hurt anyone? absolutely not, but that doesn't change the fact that she is somewhat responsible for it.

💖: What is your biggest unpopular opinion about the series?

i honestly don't find the leads (jeremy michael christine and the squip, that is) particularly interesting 😭 every so often i find myself thinking 'oh man this fandom is so oversaturated with content about these characters' and then i catch myself because. they're literally the main characters. that's normal. i'm not normal. oh and speaking of oversaturated i definitely think there is an overabundance of boyf riends to the point where i sometimes find it annoying 😶

actually on second thought my biggest unpopular opinion is probably that i Do Not like the broadway version. at all. sorry i tried but i just can't. that's just my opinion though it's totally cool that other people do

💕: What is an unpopular ship that you like?

my taste in ships is fairly generic lol. yknow the 'mainstream' non-canon ships and then the canon ships. my most niche ship is definitely the popular kids polycule though i'm not sure if it qualifies as 'unpopular', it's just. not really a thing lmao??

then again this fandom is chill (pun intended) so i don't think there really are 'unpopular' ships in the sense that they're actively disliked. ​for instance a lot of people have pinkberry as their notp but it's still pretty popular.

(the exception is y'know. squipjer. ew. widely disliked for a reason. once again putting it out there squipjer shippers dni)

#orca answers #bmc #be more chill #brooke lohst #i love talking ship opinions it's one of the most fun topics to discuss #i only post them when i get asks about it though because just throwing out ship takes feels like starting unnecessary drama lol

Icemav/Hangster Headcanon, basically an AU where Maverick and Rooster never had a falling out, married Icemav, and Hangster have known each other since they were teenagers.

Carole passed away when Bradley was in middle school, and Mav then officially adopted him.

Ice and Mav live together with Bradley, and he called them dad and pops (uncle Ice when outside of the house cause, you know). Ice and Mav basically raised Bradley, and made him fell in love with everything aviation. When he told them he wanted to go to the naval academy and one day become a fighter pilot like them, they supported his decision.

Jake’s father was also a navy fighter pilot and eventually became an Admiral. Ice knew Jake’s father and have served with him at some point. They have a good relationship.

Jake’s father is actually a good father but he’s just always very busy so he’s never around. After becoming an Admiral, he somehow become even busier. Meanwhile, his mom was a lawyer that eventually became a US senator, and also very busy and was never around. Jake has one older sister and one older brother, his sister became a naval surgeon, and his brother also became a pilot.

After adopting Bradley, Mav decided to permanently teach at Top Gun so he can settle down and be around him all the time, meanwhile Ice also started to get promoted and trying his best to quickly rise in rank so he can also settle down with Mav and Bradley instead of being sent around all over the world.

Jake first met Bradley at a naval functions, Ice and Jake’s father introduced them. They became friends ever since. 

Jake hangs out at Bradley’s house all the time, and he saw how Mav was always around, and how Ice always tried to call Bradley even when he was deployed. Eventually he got kinda jealous cause his parents were never around and started to pick fights with Bradley all the time. It didn’t help that jake actually had a crush on Bradley so it’s kinda also like pigtail-pulling on his part. They still hang out together tho, they just always bickers all the time.

Bradley and Jake both went to the naval academy at Annapolis, but Bradley was 1 year ahead of Jake. Natasha was 1 year below Jake. Nat eventually became besties with Bradley after getting stationed together at some point.

Eventually Icemav got legally married when DADT was repealed, Bradley was Mav’s best man, Slider was Ice’s. Hangman was also present at the wedding.

Bradley and Jake got together at some point after their first stint at TOP GUN, but broke up shortly after. They kinda became the infamous couple who have that on-again-off-again relationship in their circle of friends. Everytime they hang out together, everyone would always bet whether they’re currently in their on or off phase. People also jokingly called them the royal couple, since both Admiral’s kids are basically navy royalty at that point.

Sometimes after Bradley became a fighter pilot, Mav heard about the darkstar program and got interested. I mean, it’s Mav, so of course he would want to try being the fastest man alive. So he quits teaching and beg Ice to pull some strings to get him to be the test pilot for that program.

The TGM movie still happen the way it was, but Ice is alive (just like Val, he survives the fight with cancer but lost his voice). 

In the beginning of the movie, Bradley and Mav was fighting. Bradley was mad because he thought Mav recklessly endanger himself for fun at the darkstar project. Mav’s locator malfuction so they didn’t know whether or not he survives the darkstar exploding, it took 12 hours before they found him and it shook Bradley up real bad cause at that point he’s still very traumatized from almost losing Ice to cancer, and at the time he also didn’t know about Admiral Cain trying to shut down the project as the reason why Mav did what he did. Meanwhile, Mav was mad that Bradley insisted to go on the suicide mission despite the danger.

Ice used his connection to help Mav return to TOP GUN to train the kids for the mission, cause he knew, his husband might be the only hope to make sure that everyone survives that mission.

Bradley didn’t know that Mav was going to be their instructor, and when Mav came, he got angry thinking Mav was there to try to make sure he didn’t get send out on the mission. 

Rooster and Hangman was currently on their off phase during the training. Hangman actually has a good relationship with Mav, and he agreed with Mav a lot when critisizing Rooster’s flying cause they both worry. So they also fought a lot because of it.

Everything else is basically the same, and right before they fly the mission, Rooster somehow found out from Hondo the real reason why Mav did what he did at the darkstar project, and then Mav actually selected him to be his wingman. He tried to talk, but like in the movie, Mav basically told him they’ll talk after.

During the mission, Ice was present at the carrier. Imagine how he feels when he heard that both his husband and son was shot down. And when they came back in the F-14, he immediately ordered Hangman to go and escort them back. He’s basically, boy bring them both back to me in one piece and I’ll give you my blessing to do whatever you plan to do to my son after ;)

Afterward, everybody actually talk, Mav and Roo dealt with their misunderstanding, then Jake finally just went on his knee and propose to Bradley, cause we’ve been dancing around each other for years Roo and I almost lost you and I just can’t wait anymore please just marry me ok.

Ice managed to convince Mav to finally accept promotion so he would stop flying dangerous test planes and instead became the commanding officer at TOP GUN.

Bradley and Jake got married. This wedding was a huge deal for everyone, there’s a huge bet going, and Bob won the bet lol. But really, everybody’s just happy that Admiral Kazansky’s kid finally got married with Admiral Seresin’s kid after years and years of all that drama.

#icemav #hangster #I just feel like it would be nice to let rooster grow up with mav and ice without unnecessary drama #my fic ideas

5x20 predictions

okay y’all—

i am finally jumping on the predictions-about-isabel’s-return bandwagon! if anyone cares to read, buckle in and please proceed

i went back to watch the last ep isabel was in onscreen in (i.e. 1x16)

and i am inclined to think (like many of you have already mentioned) that she is coming back to tell tim she is getting remarried. i’m not sure if she’s inviting him or not, but at the very least telling him so he doesn’t hear about it elsewhere and thank him for helping get her clean.

basically, the last convo tim and isabel had (onscreen) was at the rehab center when they decided that it was “the end” between them. tim tells her that everyone told him to let her go since she was already gone, but he held on because he couldn’t abandon her when she was so lost. but, because she wasn’t lost anymore, he had to let her go… he had to let her go to give her a fresh start away from all of the memories of the destruction her addiction caused. and of course, it was heartbreaking (hence the ep title) as they said their goodbyes and he walked away leaving her standing there.

and here’s the thing… even here with the actual act of breaking up with isabel, tim does what he has always done in his relationships on the show… he thinks more about his partner than himself. he mentions letting isabel go and doing it for her. he doesn’t mention himself and honestly, i think it’s because he isn’t really thinking about himself there… he isn’t even seeing it as them letting each other go because they both need a fresh start separately— he focuses only on what isabel needs as opposed to the both of them.

anyway, i recapped this whole bit because i think it would make sense for isabel to return and tell him she’s made the fresh start and to thank him. not just for sticking with her while she was lost, but also letting her go when she wasn’t anymore…. because he said the words that needed to be said aloud, he made that tough call that needed to be made, and because of this she is now living an amazing life that her fresh start afforded her.

also— it would be sweet for them to acknowledge that tim also needed that fresh start and that it also brought him to a “beautiful place” in the end (bonus points if there is also some light teasing about lucy being his rookie that called about his study habits way back when)

this convo would lead so well into a chenford i love you… like isabel moved on, tim moved on and they are both happy. they let each other go and were able to move forward and find the real thing again and each have a bright future ahead— full of love and promise. and i'm sure lucy will be a bit nervous about isabel showing up again... i mean, 1) she saw the way tim longed to protect isabel, to get her back and 2) she hasn't been in love the way she is with tim... he is her first serious relationship where she actually sees their future as set, while tim had that with isabel first. it would make total sense to let yourself feel insecure about that... so i think it would be really beautiful for tim to acknowledge that he made that choice to end the marriage, not just for isabel's sake, but for his own and how it brought him to a place to fall in love with lucy and to build a new future together

i’m gonna stop here for now cos i actually need to get some coursework done and i could honestly go on all day about this. i’ll probs pop back on to write another block of text about chenford or a spec fic before the next ep is out (like seriously i will spiral out about chenford and 5x20 again in the next 3 weeks several time over)

anyway… if y’all stuck through this to the end, what are your thoughts about it? would love to hear more from all of you fellow chenfordians!

#i hope they go down this route #i hate when writers bring back exes to stir up unnecessary drama (esp when shows don't have time for that shit) #bring back exes to inform characterisation and character development #not for pure shock value #like pls make it make sense at least #y'all i have half a paper to finish and i just can't believe i am so obsessed i had to write this first to make room in my brain #chenford #tim bradford #lucy chen #isabel bradford #the rookie #the rookie spec

I really wanted Day to either go with Mol to the US or seeing them keeping an online relationship. What shitty end of the TV show break up is this

#i swear this is the sure way to make me feel nothing #break up last eps is so overused #just feels like unnecessary drama being worked in an unnecessary way #it's a pit because mok thing with his sister need work... but alas #last twilight #last twilight the series

I had a very funny idea

Marco internally: Okay, the mood is nice, tension has been cleared. Time to tell Jackie I’m trans.

Marco: Jackie, I’ve wanted to tell you something for a while now.

Jackie: Me too Marco.

Marco a little surprised but shrugs it off: You wanna go first?

Jackie looking nervous: Uh, maybe?

Marco confused but wants to be supportive: Okay, how about we say it together okay? One, two, three-

Jackie: I’M GAY!!

Marco frozen:

Jackie feeling scared: Marco? Please say something,

Marco’s brain rebooting: I’m bi

Jackie blinks in surprise then smiles: Really! That’s great Marco! Is there someone you’re interested in?

Marco: I uh-

Jackie: I honestly felt like shit for dating you due to het comp but at least I know I’m not alone in this! 😊

Marco: Yeah! Yeah, his name is Tom?

Marco internally: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME!??!

Jackie: Cool! How did you two meet?

Marco losing her mental stability by the second: He’s Star’s ex.

Jackie: Oh I’m sorry dude! *she hugs her* I’m sure things will work out. In the meantime, we should probably break up. It’s best to be honest with ourselves you know?

Marco who’s had a legitimate crush on her since she was a kid: M’kay, thanks Jackie.

Jackie: I should be thanking you instead. I felt so guilty for what happened between you and Star and then realizing it was all for nothing.

Marco managing to snap out of it a bit: Jackie, what happens with Star wasn’t your fault.

Jackie rubs her arm: I know that’s technically true but every time I look back, I see Star crying as she runs away it and makes my heart shatter, y’a know?

Marco also feeling unnecessary guilt over what happened: Yeah, I get it.

Jackie: I knew you would. *she hugs her one final time then hops on her skateboard* stay cool okay?

Marco dealing with all of this at once: Uh huh, you too.

Jackie skates away and once she’s out of sight Marco pulls her hoodie up and curls into a ball: Please god, if you’re out there, take me now.

Janna watching all of this from a bush: Lmao mission failed successfully.

I have a part two if anyone is interested

#Janna was originally there to support Marco coming out #Now she’s there for the drama #I would like it to be clear that both Jackie’s and Marco’s guilt is unnecessary #Neither are mind readers #It was just right person wrong time #Honestly I don’t know who to ship for this content so no ship tags #svtfoe #jackie lynn thomas #marco diaz #trans girl marco diaz #trans girl marco #tom lucitor #star butterfly #janna ordonia

It’s relieving to finally hear a direct response from Keith, Zach, and Eugene about everything. I’m glad they could share everything they feel both legally and personally comfortable with.

I can’t imagine how difficult the last few weeks have been for the entire company. Especially with videos like this being the only outlet for peoples curiosity in the last week.

Seeing how personally affected they all still are, watching everyone sPiLl ThE tEa about a very raw and personal betrayal by one of their closest friends and business partners is really uncomfortable.

Idk if I’m personally just sensitive to it but I hate how dehumanizing and exploitative this all feels.

#try guys #anyways I also just hate tea spill / drama accounts #they’re so mean spirited and unnecessary #reminds me of how ppl like perez Hilton used to treat celebrities in the 2000s #yeah they do shitty stuff but y’all ain’t any better tbh #on the very small bright side it’s been very touching to see the support from their fans #and the very genuine concern and sadness people feel for them #they’ve made a lot of people smile over the years myself included #and it really shows how much their content has ment to people

ppl who seem to always rotate through having specific kinds of trans girls to proclaim their hate for and implicitly putting themselves above them for not being into the same things make me so uncomfies, like... they r not hurting u in any way, yes people can be extra cringe sometimes but why are u like this.

#I am specifically talking about completely harmless - embarrassing at most - behavior! #like sharing those cutesy subby memes like. u don't have 2 be into it and I'm not either 4/5 of the time #but u don't have to be Like That to the ppl who fw them. it's just some fun... we should all be holding hands.. #idk. as a very drama free girlie I see other girlies on here with big followings get kinda big headed about stuff sometimes #like .. chill out pls.. there is no need to make ur trans sisters catch strays like this. #they ain't even strays y'all just coming here to shoot like :/ that was an unnecessary putdown #tgirls with big internet followings be normal about average transwomen challenge level god #actually idk if she'll see this but I think Josie is the most Normal About Trans Women tgirl with a big following i can think of on here #thank u for being such a sweety pie queen I love u #i always forget she follows me back and every time she likes/reblogs from me it's like getting kissed by an angel like HELLO?? #anyways i'm thinking of that one post now that's something along the lines of #I'd rather be cringe than be mean - and that's REAL. STOP BEING SO MEAN??

watching the almost 30 year old woman in the HI3 cosplayer Groupchat addressing a personal "disagreement" she had with another cosplayer and trying to drag other people into the drama that wasn't even drama instead of solving it like a fucking adult and just messaging the person privately be like:

#woman why did you do that- #also the ''drama'' in question was her asking publicly in a 40+ people groupchat why that girl had blocked her #the girl in question hadn't even blocked her. showed her that she hadn't blocked her anywhere and then went on to tell her to keep somethin #like this out of the groupchat because literally no one else in this groupchat was involved and she thought it would stir up unnecessary #drama ... WHY IS THE 20 YEAR OLD BETTER AT SEEING THAT YOU DO NOT BRING UP SHIT LIKE THIS IN A GROUPCHAT?? #I do not like the woman in question ... idk why I don't even think she's necessarily a bad person smth abt her just rubs me the wrong way #but yeah I did have to complain abt that real quick bcs I just ... why the fuck would you not ask the person privately??? #YOU HAVE HER NUMBER BCS YOU'RE IN THE GROUPCHAT WITH HER #WHY BRING IT UP IN A GROUPCHAT OF OVER 40+ PEOPLE THAT DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT SITUATION #THAT WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE TO KNOW ABT THAT SITUATION NO MATTER IF SHE BLOCKED HER OR NOT

you cant make edits to vampire empire by big thief bc the moment i hear that song i have to start singing it dancing to it acting it out throwing up clawing the walls etc. could be the best edit in the world sorry bossman im not watching that shit. im busy

#YOU TURN ME INSIDE OUT AND THEN YOU WANT THE OUTSIDE IN YOU SPIN ME ALL AROUND AND THEN YOU ASK ME NOT TO SPIN #everyone on tiktok are soooooo annoying about this song (unsurprising) #basically a summary of the 'drama' in regards to this song: big thief released it as a snippet MONTHS ago #and the snippet sounded very jaded and heartbroken and CRUCIALLY it had the lyric 'i walked into your dagger for the last time in a row' #to then be followed by the lyric 'it's like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow' #and everyone was OBSESSED with it i was obsessed with it everyone was so buzzed about the release #and then MONTHS later like truly a taking the piss amount of time later they finally released the song... different to the teaser #like they changed the WAY it was sung to sound more angry and like a scorned lover and they also straight up changed the lyrics #in certain parts like it's now 'i walked into your dagger for the last time / it's like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow' #and everyone was like??? that sounds jumpy anyway but now we all know the old lyrics it sounds SO odd to get rid of 'in a row' like that #like what was the need??? and i backed all of that bc it was frustrating and more than anything it was just really odd and unnecessary #but oh my god tiktok fucking CRUCIFIED the song for it. imo both versions of the song are great on their own #i actually prefer the angrier sound of the official release as well as preferring the original lyrics #but ive seen multiple tiktoks made where people are like THIS IS THE WORST SONG EVER HOW COULD THEY DO THIS?!?!?! #and it's like. you guys truly cannot have a middling opinion about anything. it HAS to be some sort of extreme #declan mckenna's bridge for british bombs was actually a tiktok prediction. if it's not a fucking outrage... #anyway i started ranting but this is still one of THEE songs of the summer for me and you should all listen to it asap #song rec
