Sexiest Podcast Character — Scripted Bracket — Round 5
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda
Captain Isabel Lovelace (Wolf 359):
Her everything <3 But in all seriousness WHAT is more sexy than a haunted, competent, funny, cursed, vengeful, mourning, badass, doomed woman?
listen to the run and hide speech and tell me that isn't the sexiest thing you've ever heard
Hot space lady who could kill me mmm yes please!
(sort of) twice-undead space captain who wired a bomb to her heart to make sure the crew of her ship didn't kill her before her escape shuttle got working. she's funny she's a genius she knows how to use a gun and she cares very much about her crew (despite the whole bomb thing).
#LOVELACE #idk who she’s up agaunst really tbf #but she cares so SO much #she gets boiled down to ’tough scary lady hot’ a lot (which 100% agree) but #she is heartbroken about her failure to keep her crew safe #and stubbornly wants to make sure none of it is in vain #even if it kills her #HOT. ​even apart from how hot her monologues and threats to hilbert are #also her and eifel laughing and getting along when they first meet her 😭 yall #anyway. lovelace 1000%. the defense rests
Vote Lovelace cuz of the way she says "Hi honey, I'm home" to the bastard who shot her in the head, and then how she proceeds to beat him up <3 Oh. And how she twists his arm and says "good boy". Yeah.
LOVELACE SWEEP LOVELACE SWEEP GO LISTEN TO HER RUN AND HIDE SPEECH AND WEEP THAT GODDARD AERONATICS EVER KILLED HER ENTIRE CREW AND ALSO HER (she recovered) AND MADE HER THEIR ENEMY
#LOVELACE SWEEP. DO NOT FUCKING LET ME DOWN #Lovelace is so much to me #Seen some people in the notes citing the run and hide speech#Which is very good #but my personal favorite Lovelace thing is variations on a theme #The cyclical nature of trauma #The lack of trust #The fear #the sadness #‘You can never go home. You were home. And now you’re back— and you can never go back.’ #Lovelace hearing Hera say something to her and #Thinking ‘what she’s actually saying is that I’m a demon and she would be glad to kill me in a slow and horrifying manner’ #Is so #I don’t agree that Lovelace is doomed either #Like #lovelace did die. But #She got out of that pain and trauma #How do you listen to her say that she is Isabel Lovelace #That she rejects the person that pain made her to be #And say she’s doomed
captain lovelace helped 12yo me realise I like women. She’s so hot. her threatening Hilbert is the sexiest thing I’ve ever heard. isabel lovelace SWEEP

Mina Murray (Re: Dracula)
As the winner of the Dracula sexyman bracket which ran before brackets were even a huge thing on tumblr and as a podcast character sort of now that re:Dracula is a podcast I think she deserves a place in this bracket
I would kill for Mina I would die for Mina etc
Mina helped everyone kill Dracula with her reports and memorization of the train schedules!
Mina got her mind invaded in order to be used as a puppet, and she took advantage of it by uno reversing the mind link to hunt down and kill her tormentor. Twice a day she gets into a state of being buried alive to achieve it. She dreads vampirism yet she's using her vampirism to her advantage. Her man vowed to become a vampire for her. He hates vampires. Yet he will offer his throat to her only.
Mod Note: This poll is about podcast characters, please only vote and offer propaganda for the Mina Murray in Re: Dracula.

I mean if you really think about it. Technically Chadley is kind of Sephiroth's little brother
Anon you are so right. Unfortunately we don't have it it canon, but highlights of their sibling bond would include:
• Sephiroth frequently gifting Chadley toys and other trinkets he himself was deprived of during childhood because he wants to make sure Chadley doesn't go through that. Chadley has more Lego sets and two-person games than he knows what to do with.
• Chadley going to Sephiroth for real world advice and getting trolled in grand older brother fashion.
Chadley: I think I may have romantic feelings for Professor Hojo's new intern.
Sephiroth: How so?
Chadley: Whenever I'm around her, I have heart palpitations, my vision blurs, I become sweaty and my speech is slurred.
Sephiroth: You've just described a stroke.
Chadley:
Sephiroth: You can have the same symptoms by consuming a double bacon cheeseburger.
Chadley:
Sephiroth: Which is much more fulfilling than romance, in my opinion.
• While researching "ways brothers bond," Chadley found funny videos of siblings jump scaring each other. He now frequently hides behind corners, donning a scary mask or fake blood, to scare Sephiroth. He finds it hilarious when Sephiroth gasps and clutches his heart. Sephiroth, in turn, isn't sure when he'll ever stop pretending to be scared, but he doesn't care. He likes seeing Chadley happy.
• Chadley steals Sephiroth's music taste, much to Hojo's chagrin, since the kid likes to blast the heavy metal and obscure goth music in the labs.
• Stealing each other's food.
*They're walking when Chadley's shoelaces come undone*
Chadley: Hold my sandwich for me please.
Sephiroth: Sure.
*Chadley bends down to tie his shoes. When he stands up, his sandwich is gone*
Chadley: I told you to hold it!
Sephiroth: I'm holding it in my stomach.
• Chadley uses social media for researching/ mimicking "sibling behavior" and likes to replicate things he sees. This is how he ended up on a "fun ways to annoy your brother" video. Sephiroth now gets sprayed with water—like a cat—at random when he's trying to rest.
• Chadley's excited rambling about materia and his research is never reprimanded by Sephiroth, who listens happily, remembering how he wished he had someone to listen to him gush about his interests when he was a child.
• Chadley is helping Professor Hojo assess Sephiroth in the labs. When Hojo's back is turned, Charley socks Sephiroth in the arm. Sephiroth, annoyed, punches him right back. Hojo turns around right as Chadley gets punched.
Hojo: Honestly Sephiroth. I expected better from you.
Sephiroth: But he hit me first.
Chadley: He bullies me constantly, Professor.
Sephiroth: !?
• When the labs feel suffocating or Professor Hojo is being particularly difficult, Chadley likes to escape to the 49th floor and use Sephiroth's office as a quiet spot. Sephiroth isn't always there, but when he is he makes sure to distract Chadley and give him the attention he needs. Eventually Sephiroth gives him a spare access card to his apartment if Chadley ever needs it.
• This later evolves into sleepovers.
• They constantly take advantage of their height difference—Chadley through piggyback rides and Sephiroth through fun methods of discipline.
*Lazard walks by Sephiroth's office and sees Sephiroth sitting on Chadley*
Lazard: What in Shiva's name are you doing??
Sephiroth: I caught him trying to go to Wall Market.
Chadley: It's for RESEARCH.
Sephiroth: Clearly he's at the age where he needs to be monitored lest he falls victim to recreational drugs and gang activity.
Chadley: I was just going to conduct a survey! GET OFF ME!
Sephiroth: Struggling will do nothing but amuse me.
• Not even Sephiroth is safe from your little sibling stealing your stuff.
*Chadley walks in with a shiny device in his hand*
Sephiroth: Is that my transmuter?
Chadley: No.
Sephiroth: It says Sephiroth on the back.
Chadley: No it doesn't.
Sephiroth: Chadley, I'm looking right at it.
Chadley: So? You don't even use it.
Sephiroth: Just because I don't regularly use something doesn't mean you can take it without permission.
Chadley: Hm. I guess I should probably give this back.
*Chadley places Masamune on the table*
Sephiroth: HOW—?
• Other SOLDIERs and troopers on missions with Sephiroth have reported seeing his face "light up" whenever he gets a call from Chadley.

Tony stark/pepper x reader - my security
Tumblr media
HELLOOO again friend! May I do the requesting? A Tony Stark x reader, if your comfy? Reader is a badass agent, (Tony gets scary dog privileges) and isn't afraid to be over protective of their lover? Hell, maybe (maybe) a tony x reader x pepper?? idk, thanks darliinnn'! - @nyxiethesimp 💜
Humming to himself, Tony walked around the kitchen counter, seeing you standing on the other side with an energy drink in hand.
“You’re coming to this interview thing with me right?”
Taking a sip of your drink, you leant against the counter.
“It’s a fundraising speech Stark, and yes I am coming since I am employed as your bodyguard.”
Tony closed the fridge and walked over, standing in front of you as he opened the cupboard behind your head.
Resting your head on his shoulder.
Tony placed a hand on your back, and he took a glass out, setting it on the counter, going about what he needed to do.
After a few moments you stepped away with a yawn and you gently tapped his cheek.
“Going to bed, I’ll meet you there.”
“Hey come on!” He whined.
“Bye Tony!”
He protested and you just went to his room, falling into his bed.
There was a small noise of protest and you smiled to yourself, taking the quilts from the other person in the bed.
“Come on (Y/N)..”
“You’ve been sleeping all night..”
She grumbled to herself, and you smiled, lifting the quilt so she could shuffle over.
“You need to get ready…” you whispered.
“I still have a few hours..”
You laughed a little, patting Peppers head as you closed your eyes.
“Mkay..”
You woke up a while later, the bed was empty and you slowly sat up, ruffling your hair a little before running a hand down your face.
“Jarvis where is everybody..?”
“At the charity event, I was asked to tell you to leave as soon as possible when you wake up.”
You nodded and began to get ready before heading down to the garage for your car.
You wanted to get to the event as soon as possible, but you were in no real rush, you knew it would be a tight security event, and you weren’t obligated to go to everything. You just liked to scare everybody.
Parking your car outside, you climbed out, stuffing your hands into your pockets as you made your way inside.
It only took a few seconds for you to scan the area and to see your boyfriend talking to some other people.
Making your way over, you saw his gaze land on you and he gave a small nod of his head making you smirk.
Walking behind the people he was taking to, you crossed your arms over your chest and listened to the conversation.
“You should watch your back Stark, not everybody is pleased with you being in the board.”
“It’s a charity event, I don’t think threatening me would be the best idea.” Tony mused.
He took a sip of his drink and set it back at the bar.
“You’re stupid enough to come without protection.”
“Is that what you think?” Tony scoffed.
You smirked even more, resting your arms on the shoulders of the two people in front of you making them jump.
“Excuse me assholes.”
You pushed them aside, walking over to Tony, you walked behind him, resting your chin on his shoulder, hand on his chest.
“So you brought a date? So did everybody else.” One scoffed.
“Oh did I mention date? Sorry, no I meant security detail. (Y/N).”
You hummed, stepping back around him, crossing your arms over your chest.
“I suggest you two assholes get out of here.”
“Excuse us we have every right to be here?”
“So does this.”
You moved quickly, sweeping the legs of the two from under them, watching as they fell.
Making your way back to Tony, you walked around him, ordering a drink as they scrambled back up to their feet.
A few people were watching now.
“This is unacceptable!”
“Somebody remove this man!”
You reached behind you, pulling out your gun and you pointed it at them, sipping your drink as you stared at the mirror behind the bar.
“Place one hand on him and you’ll find it hard to use said hand again.”
Tony grinned.
“Security.”
With that he walked over, placing a hand on your hip, order a drink and you put your gun safely away once more.
Turning your head to Tony, you took his drink as he was given it and walked away with it while he followed you.
“You did that one purpose.”
“Maybe but come on give it back!”
You smirked at him, holding his drink out before taking it away once more

Has anyone written a guide on
How to write New York AAVE - for Miles & Miles!42
?? If so let me reblog it but if not I might write something. I don't really read for them but there are a lot of New York specific terms I can drop if anyone wants. Some of them I use in my posts (like saying 'I'm weak' in place of 'I'm laughing really hard).
Follow up question:
Do you notice any AAVE in my posts? Do any of my sayings or terms confuse you? I'm so curious cause EVERYONE IRL around me speaks fluent AAVE 24/7 unless they're in an office setting.
Every person in my school spoke it. Because it's our default way of speaking and we switch out of it, I don't notice the large differences sometimes.
[One time I was overseas and I was speaking and a British dude (granted drunkness was happening) was like 'OH you're from Texas right :) I can hear the twang' and I was like ?????????????? Absolutely not my friend now take it back ??????????
The Midwestern girls next to me was like 'ummmm he sounds extremely New Yorker, like it's not even funny'
I realized he probably thought I was Texan because I say 'y'all' A LOT. I use it 100% of the time. Saying 'you guys' here is seen as really formal. But at the time because I didn't realize I was saying y'all and speaking AAVE in front of foreigners, and since it isn't really spoken in movies or on TV - it sounded foreign and very very thick in front of them]
That's why I try to write in AAVE when I can. It's quicker, has a lot of fun sayings, and it's a legitimate writing and speech pattern with it's own words, some words having changed meanings in AAVE (like feigning or scary), and lots of other small things.
But if someone has already written it let me share it cause I wanna read
BUT IF I DO WRITE THE POST I WOULD LIKE TO DO A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT -
[It takes less than five minutes of your time and involves listening to a song]
If you've read this far and you wanna see the post, I'd love to try a little experient.
I'm really curious how knowledgeable everyone is in AAVE, and how much if it is completely lost in translation. So idea:
Act Up by City Girls is a popular rap song written completely in New York AAVE.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's 2:30 minutes long. Can you do me a favor and go listen to it? (If English is your second language, I'd love to hear your thoughts too!) And just notice:
How much you do understand their accent, as in are you making words out of it, even if the sentences sound confusing?
How much of the lines you feel like you comprehend or get the joke?
And for fun, are there any words you either don't know at all, or words you know being used in a weird way?
WARNING: THE SONG IS VERY SEXUALLY EXPLICIT AND THEY BE CURSIN
FOR EXAMPLE of AAVE -
Like in the song Yung Miami - her name itself being AAVE for 'Young' Miami - says the lyric
'Hood bitch, good pussy
I ain't average
He can't come around with that cabbage
Pop a pussy bitch quick like a bubble gum'
Did you understand that the first time she meant a literal pussy, and the second she meant it as 'someone who isn't about their word'. Meaning she'll punch the hell out of a girl who she thinks is asking for it.
Or that cabbage is supposed to mean money?
These are just some of the lighter lines. But if you have the time, like 3-4 minutes, please check out the song and let me know your thoughts!
Also do you already know the song or City Girls?
I'm just really curious about how much AAVE people know and how in depth to go if I do write it. I'm SO SO CURIOUS.

all my notes on episodes 44 and 45:
the Beth and Ron intro and "Ron...what are we?" made laugh while in a dead quiet bus on a border crossing while people were getting their passports checked and maybe THAT'S why the officer was rude to me
directly from my notes: "google lauren booger??? over the panrs hj in beetlejuice the musical, transphobic? okay i googled her ANTHONY WHAT THE FUCK"
ron sounds like Jennifer Coolidge in this episode
"Taylor walks in and looks at him a s i a n l y" *anthony losing it* "roll intimidation" -> i think i got a fever from how hard I laughed
*guitar strumming* "hold on Freddy's cooking" 🎵would you say a slurrrr. if you saw me in heaven🎵
listen you can't APOLOGISE away killing someone but Scarys grown as a person and Beths speech was very well composed
Taylor I love you forever (already rolling up sleeves, "you wanna go", stuttering over his words, the moment someone questions his dad's power) Freddy is a genius for this character
I relate to Normal painfully this episode. him welling up with tears and him feeling left out while people yry to comfort him in vain is like integral to my middle school experience
"schooled in jail" is so Scary of Link. shes really emo-fied them I appreciate that. I appreciate her influence.
i cannot get over the "chaos orbs" joke because everytime i just think they're talking about the fucking chaos emeralds from the sonic franchise
*crying* IM A BAD PERSON! RON! DADDY! -> I love Terry Jr charactarisation. I love how guilt has been eating him up. I love how he still loves Ron so much. I love that he still goes to his dad. I love them sm.
Ron is just Gandalf in the way hes an old man with wisdom everyone respects despite him making no sense sometimes.
I love Ron's charactarisation. How he tries to help Nick and "you lied to me kiddo" and how he's honest with Nick and fuck I miss Ron. Beth is doing a fantastic job.
Nick is so fucking cool.
Nick and Terry Jr were best friends? Was this established before?
ooh i love the just TASTY instrumentals as anthony describes the daddy magic
I LOVE NICK. hes so fucked uo and traumatised and he isn't exactly trying his best but that is due to the things he went through and he's going through so much but he loves Taylor even more and UGGGH the fuckign Close family man.
Taylor and Glenn interacting is always just Freddy going:
Tumblr media
"if you found time travel maguc maybe you could pick me up and we could do childhood all over again" -> I don't want to hear ANYBODY say that Freddy's characters are one-note. He knows exactly who they are and exactly how to play them and they're endlessly fascinating to me.
Taylor and Normal volunteering to be kings of hell and getting themselves in a cage is so good. like from a character perspective. "fear. fear in talkors eyes. why did i open my mouth?" is SO fucking good. it does so much for portraying Taylors thought process or lack thereof. it does so much to paint how he reacts emotionally to things. Normal's desperate need for validation leading to him putting them in a dumbass situation? Taylor bejng blinded by what's funny/exciting only to realise too late he should think before he speaks? Perfect. this is so fucking true to teengehood I feel liek I've been both of them at some point

I Finished the Imperium-- here are my findings.
Tumblr media
Welcome to the Imperium / Your Place Amongst Magic
Not much to note, Echo wasn't as scary as I thought. I was more so "oooooh"ing and "aaaah"ing about the cool set up. I love me a good tragedy.
Hunted Down by an Obsessive Water Elemental
Kody why do you sing for so long. Please stop.
Blake's "But I'm not-" when being referred to as a Dreamwalker. That's clever, I see what happened here.
VINDEMIATOR !!!! WOOO !!!! I was So afraid that he was gonna be Mean the Whole Time. But I get putting up appearances. He slayed though.
A Desperate Incubus Asks For Your Help
The immediate tone change from Vindemiator oouugu guh YEAH.
Him apologizing if he scared us i'm going to Weep and Sob. The comeback of "living and being alive are two different things" had me shaking the bars of my enclosure. Oh yeah, that's my baby.
I will do Anything for you sir. I will die for this cause.
Hell YEAH getting Kody's ass. Get the fuck outta here baby !
"What are you gonna do, fuck me to death?" return also !!! we love callbacks.
At an Enforcer's Mercy
Vin's little thing about Not wanting to talk about what just happened, how it's just another means of survival :(((
HUXLEY NOOOOO. Huxley baby this isn't like you. Where are your mothers.
Freelancer standing up for Vindemiator when Huxley starts to punch him !!!!! Soulmates in every universe I'm tellin' ya.
Alone with the Fanatical Academy President
Would you hate me if i said I was kinda into it. I was a little Scared, but I get it a little bit.
His whole story about how he got where he is, golly ! that's a little frightening !! And his condescension when Freelancer keeps asking about Vin !!! ouu u ugh that was Something.
Uncomfortable Truths with a Hopeless Demon
Avior !!! Hi Avior. I didn't know that the Haven was a sort of ploy ! It does make sense in the long-term. The Imperium can take any power it gets huh.
And it's Starlight !! can these two not get trapped in a hell for like 5 seconds.
Oh there's the kicker !! an apocalypse !!! I knew this was happening, but hearing the characters acknowledge it !! uhoh !!
His little speech about how No One listens to him and how he goes to the roof to scream at stars :(( What if i Cry.
Consort to the Tyrant King-Imperial
I knew Damian was King-Imperial. I knew Angel was his Consort. Still in awe.
Angel has Very Valid concerns and Damian just brushes them off with "I'm the King" !!
Him freezing/tracing them so they couldn't move during their argument >:(( What the fuck sir. This is not love !!
Turned by a Devious Vampire
Do you think this is what Sam is going to do now that he's kinda left the Solaire Clan. The dentist part, not the mass-maker part. Could you imagine.
Regardless, he seemed nicer than I thought. A little nerve-wracking for sure, but there was Some kindness there. Poor Baby though, and Poor Ivan afterward.
The fucked up cycle of mass-making is crazy. No wonder the Meridian is Dying.
Caught By a Cruel Werewolf Pack
This one i was Most excited for. Imperium Pack Fics are some of my Favorites. I did kick my feet a little when Milo showed up. Sweetheart still being his mate :') once again soulmates in every universe.
ASHER !!! EJ, I understood before but now. I see the whole picture now. I immediately folded.
Him mentioning David and Darlin' OUCH !!! He misses his mate so much. I didn't know it was bc Christian and Amanda were off fucking !! what !!!
Babe asking if he's okay after chewing Christian out, and actually holding a conversation with them-- even if it's an interrogation a little bit. And once he finds out their agenda he takes them to the Den oh my god it's happening guys.
I ate this audio up. I think it's my favorite so far.
Claimed by Two Sadistic Vampires
What the actual fuck is happening right now !!! I mean good riddance Adam, but what !!!
Welcome Back
yeah yeah Echo thank you so much. I do now understand why everyone is afraid that it's constantly raining in the Prime Universe now though !! I get it !!! I'm afraid too !!!
The little bit at the end with Asher and David, and how David just wants to spend time with his best friend before the E&E Games :') that was a really nice touch and also. hurts a lot after the Inversion and Imperium !
It's time for the Cataclysm. I'm sure all of my thoughts will Drastically Change lmfao.
I gotta re-read some Fics first though ;)

Aries north node transit and Libra south node transit : Scary Enlightment and Revolution (hopefully....)
Tumblr media
Sooo....Ummm, some of the so-called astrologers didn't really talk about the significance of these node transits. I have always wanted to talk about this topic, but there are some reasons:
-Life has LIFING
-There are so many genocides happening everywhere!
-The government leaders are preparing us to be a Hunger Games society by pushing out laws to imprison and control us. I guess nobody isn't being mad enough to go FRENCH!
-Sending out our taxes to fund genocides!
There is so much shit happening, and I'm a human being and I feel like I want to make a change but these evil entities are limiting it and violating our basic human rights.
I'm going to explain about these two nodes, and you can see how it's relate to current circumstances. FYI, I'm not a professional astrologer but I'm a learner and a curious being.
Currently, we have a north node transit in Aries. I thought that I would like this energy but I'm thinking that it's kind of scary. As you can see, there are too many wars happening in our countries that is very cruel and evil. In these conflicts, there is a lot of abuse that is happening to innocent civilians and some of to leave home. And in Congo , sadly some women were raped violently. This is a very traumatic time for everyone in the middle of the attack. I mean we see that our so-called powerful nations are in support of these attacks and seems like they don't want to stop the attacks anytime soon ! To me , I'm like how many more bloodsheds do we have to witness....Right now, it has overpassed the limit.
Tumblr media
I guess the positive side of this, is that true and genuine human beings are fighting back! People are protesting, donating, and spreading awareness about what's going on. Some are going out their ways to disturb government officials at their homes and gatherings, AND AS THEY SHOULD!
You are silent about the genocides occuring but seeing how much our taxes are being used and sending it to a terrorist state that is killing innocent people and they are proud of it! Yeah, stop using my money!
A lot of people are being hopeful and creating ways to be heard to make a change. If you are doing whatever you can, I love you, and I know that it's tiring, but please don't lose hope. These people who are living in terror need our voices even more NOW!
Tumblr media
With the Libra south node transit, this has manifested as people separating themselves from political parties, as you can see we see in the government of those who disagree with GenocideJoe. I saw the clip of the State of the Union, some weren't even applauding for that devil. And the government is trying to away women's right to control their bodies...
There are a few that is calling out celebs for being silent and not saying a word! There were a few that went to a charity as a photo opp just to show that they care about the cause...but if you aren't dumb, clearly it's a publicity stunt! I can't even listen to "Break My Soul" anymore...I know that B is a talented woman, but I'm honestly disappointed in her the most because she was on this trend of black liberation. But I'm not surprised either because we saw her speech she did on Instagram for BLM when an innocent black man named George Floyd was unalived by a cop, her speech was a bit off. It was almost like she wasn't connected, and it seemed like she was reading off a paper and she was very silent about what was happening in Nigeria... I guess it's fair to say that these celebs like her only care about their capital and their brand so much! But what I do is that when you die, that money and fame aren't going to be with in the grave! Some fans are stupid and delusional, and willing to side with celebs but if shit hit the fan, these celebs aren't even going to look our way!
Tumblr media
And with this south node transit, we are seeing people not wanting to unite. Clearly, it's a very divided time. Even among social activists, there was some drama on TikTok. There's a hero name Angie who created a #CoffeeRevolution as a way to meet other open-minded individuals in person and make plans to better our communities and make a positive change. But there were other people who disagree and feared that they might end up meeting FBI agents or they didn't feel comfortable meeting strangers from the internet... I'm like we will never be free or seek change because of this shit! Now, I understand, but sooner or later we gonna have to leave social media and meet on the streets. And now I'm hearing that New York subways are under surveillance by national guards...And TiKTOK might be banned soooo... we gonna have to meet up regardless.
And we are seeing these dangerous laws to silence us and ignoring the genocides. And we see that most of the politicians are sponsored by a group called AIPAC so it makes sense why we can speak or say that terrorist state name! Oh, and we saw how they used western media to weaponize people that went against them about their actions. It seems like 9/11 when the media was spewing hate saying that Muslims are terrorists and bad guys! But all know who are truly the terrorists now...
I'm not really fucking with these node transits at all...But hopefully with Pluto in Aquarius, it could bring so positivity and make our world a better place.

now for the chaos corner ( or part seven ) of the ask extravaganza, let's talk about my beloved little fennec fox felicity !! could i please ask after questions one, four, five, seven, and eight from that list of questions ?
can't wait to see the answers, and i hope you're doing well !! <3
Yeeessss, Lily, my sweet little baby!
Tumblr media
1. What's an animatic about your OC / OTP that you've been spinning around your brain?
So, for Lily, I actually don't think I have a specific song animatic in mind for her, just general vibes. I feel like it would probably be an angsty one about childhood innocence and her relationship with Sanji, generally pretty happy and adorable and all, but occasionally you'll get scenes of her crying and throwing tantrums in fear... Delicious angst. Specifically, the main angst potential comes from the Whole Cake Island Arc. I know you know basically nothing about it, Dolly, but all of my OCs (except for Lux) have a deep and profound trauma from that arc, some more than others. That's because that arc is peak Sanji angst. Anyways, for some happy moments, I could see little montages of them training together, cooking together, Lily showing off her ballet skills, general crew shenanigans... It's about the contrast!
4. Give a full breakdown of one song on your OC or OTP's playlist!
*checks my Felicity playlist* Well, well, well...
I could cheat and do an instrumental one. I can’t do ones that are just there based on vibes because they're... well... just there for vibes. Most of them are just there for vibes, actually. So, we'll do this one:
"Have you heard from the news? / Clouds are falling from the sky / And everything that's pink is now blue."
... is about the scary things in Lily's life and how her world is coming apart, first because of Buggy, then because of Kuro.
"Have you heard from my mind? / We gotta find a way to cope / Or else things might not turn out so fine"
... is Lily's escapism, the way her brain cooked up the automatic response of age regression as a way to cope and make things fine again.
"And I start / To give in / To the sin / To the sin"
Lily puts up no resistance against this sort of escape but it's a "sin" because devil fruits are, well, devil fruits, and she's already a non-human freak without it, but even more so when it keeps changing her appearance in tune with her mind.
"And I start / To realize / Lullabies / La, la..."
... is Lily really falling into Little Space, the last two syllables being a sort of reference to baby speech - listen to how they sound in the song!
The chorus is filled with antitheses between childish, happy things and scary things you might encounter in life and that's also the world that Lily lives in. Sort of a childish bubble she has built for herself and the harsh pirate's life of death and fighting outside of it. There's one line that's special though and that's:
"Lollipops and cigarettes"
Lily, being half mink, has heightened senses, and she's also very emotional, so a lot of times, things just become too much for her. That's when she asks her dad Sanji for a "smoke break" which is code for "mom come pick me up i'm scared". Sanji is a smoker, so he has an excuse to just remove himself from a situation and go outside for a while and Lily copied that for herself. I think the first time she pulls this trick, it's and accident. She probably mumbles to herself "I think I need a smoke break" (copying Sanji, most likely) and everyone just looks at her as if their souls had left their bodies. But then Sanji smiles and says "You know, me too" and they leave and then this becomes actual code speak for them. There's only one thing that's an issue: Lily feels left out if Sanji is smoking and she isn't. She keeps bugging him about how it isn't fair until he gets her lollipops as a comprimise. Also fake cigarettes made of chewing gum or chocolate.
"Losing innocence is easy / But growing up is hard to face. / Give me something to hold on to / Or I'll slip right into little space"
The "losing innocence is easy" part is a reference to Lily losing her parents, an event that she can barely remember and never understood. In her eyes, they just disappeared, and she doesn't know what really happened or never quite pieces it together - because she was young, still is young and her mind refuses to recall what happened. So she just unconsciously refuses to grow up. And she doesn't have to. She's still so young but also she'd rather be this little kid again when her parents were still by her side and she doesn't want to face things like losing her second set of parents - ie. Kaya's - or getting kidnapped by Buggy or the chaos caused by the Black Cat Pirates. She needs someone or something to hold on to or she gets scared and slips into little space, basically becoming a nonverbal ball of fear.
"Remember all the rounds / When we sneaked in just to have a kiss / But now we need to keep the noise down"
In the original interpretation of the song, this is more of an allusion to puppy love vs sexuality, but in Lily's version, the last line is more related to violence and screaming, maybe also her sensitivity to noise because of her gigantic ears that she maybe wasn't so accutely aware of when she was younger.
"Remember sleepy eyes / When we see each other every day / But now this is our final goodbye"
This part is about Kaya and Lily who grew up like siblings for a long time. Granted, they are quite a few years apart, but Lily has very fond memories of just napping with Kaya and seeing her every day because they lived together, but her going out with the Straw Hats means she might never see her again - or at least not for a very long time. The "final goodybe" is also a reference to Merry's death, who was another of Lily's father figures and who was also part mink.
Chorus time! The final lines function the same way, contrasting fun, childish things and scary, adult things.
So yeah, the whole song might as well be interpreted as a look into how Lily's mind works!
5. What would your OC's tumblr blog be like?
I haven't decided on whether I want Lily to be twelve or thirteen yet, but I'm currently gravitating towards twelve and... yeah, she's too young for Tumblr XD
But if she did have a blog, I imagine it would be very chaotic. Ballet stuff, Barbie movies, children's shows, aesthetics, slime videos, kidcore, pastel stuff, Disney...
7. What's your OC's ___-core aesthetic?
Probably a soft and childish balletcore, mixed in with some more pastel-y kidcore. Also fennec fox. You cannot do Lily without a cute little fennec fox.
8. What are some TV Tropes that apply to your OC or OTP?
Oh, a lot! Here's just a little list: The Cheerful Child, Curious as a Monkey, Parental Substitute on multiple occasions (first Kaya's parents, then Merry, then Sanji!) and her and Sanji get a "Like a Son Daughter to Me" moment. She's also somewhat of an Innocent Prodigy when it comes to fighting and ballet, and Cheer Them Up with Laughter is how to stop her tantrums and breakdowns. Finally, Cheery Pink. That's it.
Sorry that this took so long. I had very little free time since Christmas and I've just been working on this whenever I had the time and frame of mind. Thanks so much for your ask!

Episode 2: Hollow Chesstion 
(Open right where the previous Episode left off)
POMNI:
What the f[×%÷]
JAX:
That thing looks INSANE…(he paused) Let's go kick its butt!
Ragatha:
Jax, are you insane we can't just go and attack things. We don't even know how to use our magic and weapons yet.
JAX: 
Surprisingly enough Rags, I don't think I need help using a sword and shield. 
POMNI:
That..may be the case. But um.. you can't defeat that thing on its own…so.. maybe that Bubble thing can help?
RAGATHA: 
It's worth a shot.
(Despite her best attempts, Pomni struggled to get Bubble summoned.)
(After a few moments she..got it. Bubble popped into existence)
BUBBLE:
HELLO! Who are you people?
POMNI:
Um… well I'm Pomni and these are my friends Ragatha and Jax…
BUBBLE: 
Wow! Well I'm Bubble! What am I doing outside?
RAGATHA:
Well, Caine said you can help us on an adventure.
BUBBLE:
I can help with that! Just reach inside my mouth!
(Pomni and Ragatha look at each other in confusion while Bubble is floating with her mouth wide open)
JAX:
Relax girls, it can't be that bad. (Jax stuck his hand into bubbles mouth.)
(After a bit Jax pulled out a potion)
JAX: 
Alright this doesn't help us right now but that's handy.
RAGATHA:
Bubble, it's awful nice of you to help us, but…isn't there some other way we can…get items and request from you?
BUBBLE:
OH YEAH!! You can tell me what you want and um, I'll listen!
POMNI:
Alright, let's start with that thing.(She points to the massive glitch mess down the way.)
BUBBLE: 
That thing is scary! It's a creation of The Dark One! It's called an Abstraction. You guys have to defeat it! 
POMNI:
Well we're dead.
BUBBLE:
Nonsense. With your combined power you'll definitely defeat it!
POMNI: 
Can… you help us defeat it?
BUBBLE: 
I suppose I can, but just this once cuz it's your first time! Otherwise, I'll only be available out of battle or IN battle for items!
JAX:
Fair enough. Let's go!
(Throughout the town Bubble gives them a tutorial on fighting gloinks and small abstracted creatures such as a small sock puppet, a dog, a jester/clown and a giant bulky one with a big eye. During that time, The Squad leveled up a bit and Bubble explained that to them.)
(They finally came to a boss that was a giant worm[Gloink Queen] and Bubble helped them there too)
BUBBLE:
Oooh, Bosses are tougher luckily this is a mini boss. I bet if you defeat The Gloink Queen, you'll get a bunch of EXP!!
JAX:
Heck yeah! Let's kick this Worms a[$%]
BUBBLE:
Yes, but please do not curse you're not on that level yet.
JAX:
Huh?
(They had all approached the Gloink Queen and she started some speech)
GLOINK QUEEN:
IMBECILES, YOU DARE STAND BEFORE THE ALMIGHTY GLOINK QUEEN?! 
JAX:
I mean yeah, you're kinda in the way. 
RAGATHA:
Don't be mean, Jax. Miss, if you'd kindly not give us any trouble, we'll be on our way.
GLOINK QUEEN:
NONSENSE, you measly peasants! Defeat me then you shall pass!
(ENTER BATTLE)
GLOINK QUEEN:
Bow before me!
POMNI'S TURN
POMNI:
Uhh Bubble? Is this any different than a normal fight?
BUBBLE:
Nope! Just more health and deals more damage! Don't die, call me when you need it okay?
POMNI: 
Gee thanks. (Pomni ran up and hit Gloink Queen with The Keyblade) 
-20 HP- GLOINK QUEEN
(After an immense battle and Pomni near death, they defeated the Gloink Queen)
Bubble:
Wow! That's a lotta XP! You can also upgrade yourself or another party member!
JAX: 
Ooh ohh! Pom, pick me.
RAGATHA:
Oh hush Jax. Pomni, you should see if you can upgrade your health or damage. 
POMNI:
Y-yeah.. I'll do that.
BUBBLE:
Works out you have two skill points!(Bubble pops a few bubbles that she summoned around her.)
And done! Pomni now has 500 HP AND 210 DAMAGE POINTS!
JAX:
Good on ya I guess…(Jax glanced over to where The Gloink Queen was. There was a chest with a keyhole) Hey look! Treasure!(He rushed over to it trying to open it)
RAGATHA: 
It's got a lock, genius. Why don't you let Pomni try?
(After Jax moved Pomni unlocked it with the Keyblade)
JAX: 
What's inside??
(POMNI LOOKED DISGUSTED AS SHE PULLED OUT SOME SLIMY GUTS)
BUBBLE:
OOH gross!! You got Gloink Guts! You can sell that to my shop or any marketplace in any world!
(There was also some gold in the chest and a charm for the keyblade of a Gloink)
(The Squad begins to fight their way to The Town Square finding hidden treasures, till they finally make it, Pomni unlocked a big padlock blocking the Town Square.)
(Before them stood a massive towering abstracted blob)
POMNI:
Isn't…Isn't this like THE FIRST BOSS?! 
BUBBLE: 
Don't worry you guys got this!
(They didn't. In fact the squad died multiple times. They went back to grind levels and exp to gain more HP, MP And DP)
(When they finally did they got even more XP and a surprise visit from Caine.)
KING CAINE:
Great job! You've actually saved Hollow Chesstion-
JAX:
Wait, if it's called Hollow Chesstion, shouldn't you be like.. a chess piece or-
KING CAINE:
That's not relevant to the plot yet! Anywho, The Dark One isn't here so that can only mean one thing. 
RAGATHA:
What?
KING CAINE:
The Dark One must've planted that abstracted mess and left! I've given Bubble a plethora of worlds he may have gone to! Post haste though, the fate of the Digitalverse is in your very capable hands, Pomni, Jax and Ragatha! (He disappeared)
POMNI:

𝐅𝐈𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑
Tumblr media
Are you named after anyone?
Yes and no. No one in my family has my first name, but I have a second and a third names (which aren't official, as in the are present on my birth certificate but not on my other IDs) that are dedicated to my maternal grandfather and to my maternal great-grandmother.
When was the last time you cried?
I honestly can't remember. It's been a while, though. I had an anxiety attack last month, but I didn't really cry. So maybe...uh, December last year? 0.o Or maybe before then. I know that I cry way less than it's healthy these days.
Do you have kids?
Nope and I don't have plans to ever have some. I don't think I have what it takes to be a good parent, considering that I'll be mostly focus on my work. And I'm not equipped to be a parent in any case. At most, if I ever were to adopt a kid, I'd been some sort of older sibling figure to them, but definitely not a parent.
Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Yes. It's my number one defensive mechanism when I'm directly dealing / talking to someone. In general sarcasm is my humour. I can't say that I'm a funny person, because I'm not, so sarcasm and irony tend to replace what for most people would be covered by humour.
What's the first thing you notice about people?
It depends on the person and on how I meet the person. IRL, I guess it the way they approach others (myself included), Online it's usually their speech patterns and how they related to other people. Usually, I'm always wary of new people until I've seen how they relate to other. How they talk to and about them is usually a good way for me to tell whether or not they are worth my efforts.
What's your eye colour?
Grey-blue (I didn't give my eyes to one of my muses on purpose, nope. I realise it in the aftermath like an idiot xD).
Scary movies or happy endings?
Damn, this is a tough one. Horror is one of my fave genres, but it's also to be said that I'm very picky when it comes to horror movie. They not only have to be scary, but they have to make sense and have a comprehensible lore. If it's just jumpscares and random stereotypes, thanks, but no thanks.
On the other hands I really like happy endings in fiction. Real life sucks badly enough, I want some satisfaction and proper endings at least in fictional universes. So, if I had to pick, I guess happy endings?
Any special talents?
I'm kind of not sure? I've been told that I have a knack for writing and also that I have a great emotional intelligence (which isn't the same as empathy, mind you). Personally, I don't think I'm especially talented in any field.
Where were you born?
Italy! That's my mother country and Italian is mother language ^^
What are your hobbies?
writing (mostly fanfics), roleplaying, listening to music, watching movies/shows, overthinking shit, being a walking mess in general.
Have you any pets?
I have a cat! He's white, deaf and has motor issues, but I really love him 🖤
What sport do you play/have you played?
I've always practised sport, since I was in elementary school, and I've practised a lot of them before settling for one in particular. Before the pandemics, I used to do martial arts (even if I have been skipping a lot of lessons because of university). I'm not doing much nowadays, but after graduation, I'm planning to get back on track with that too.
How tall are you?
168 cm (which should be 5'5"? Or 5'6", I can never remember)
Favourite subject in school?
Philosophy and literature.
Dream job?
I'm on my way to become a doctor and I'd say that it's my dream job. Not because I've always wanted to become one or stuff like that, but because nowadays I can't imagine myself as anything else.

Hello it is I connection terminated the random Tumblr user!
Ideas had:
Directly after waking upafter being controlled by a bunch of psychotic clowns for like a year Michael went to Henry for help. Henry built him the end of skeleton shell so he could do stuff again But also made Michael internalized the idea that his life is basically useless unless he does vigilante stuff. Also the idea that it basically didn't matter at all what happened to Michael himself as long as he could still walk and punch...
"Nightguar" Michael Is introduced at a charity event hosted by William. (I think he definitely has a "oh you have dead parents I have dead children isn't that so sad" talk with Bruce at some point) Also Tim is there. Then suddenly as Williams giving this speech about "Look at these new robots I made they have a criminal detection system will protect Any children who walk into my establishments!". When Michael bursts in through the glass ceiling and tries to kidnap/maybe kill his dad. But because The crowd and Batman don't know the context it just looks like scary villain came down from the ceiling and is now trying to kill nice children's entertainer William Afton. Basically Michael runs after that and has a little rooftop fight with Tim. Throws down a flash Bang and then runs away.
All of the fun times can easily disguise as humans everyone except baby is just really bad at acting normal. It's also not something they need to do much-
Michael has a lot of hang-ups about being the only non-human member of the bat family for so long. Like everyone else can kind of take off the mask and do normal people stuff (mostly). But Mike physically can't do that.... He also happens to live in a city where most of the metahumans are villains and most of the heroes are normal human people. He kind of sticks out and sometimes gets mistaken for a villain (Kind of a loose adaptation of the whole looking like William hence people wanting to attack him thing for cannon)
Whatever kind of ghost or something like that Michael Charlie and most of the other cast from fnaf are Makes anyone who is in the presence of them feel really Uneasy.. This kind of fades the more time you spend around the person. (This is a head cannon I have for normal fnaf too I just think it'll be fun here)
Cassidy's powers are based on how much pain herself and the people around her are in. Either emotional or physical. she shares a vessel with Evan (because it's easier To say then crying child) His constant sadness is A Perfect power booster! If you're wondering what her abilities are she can trap people in nightmares, Teleconesis, Telepathy, Reality bending,
Tumblr media
Thank you for listening to my ramblings here's a sketch of Cassidy! More of a little concept sketch than her final design LOL but I hope you like it
Ah! Hi! Sorry for taking so long to answer I was recovering from my sister’s second baby shower (I didn’t have a panic attack at this one yay) but it’s been a few weeks and now I’m ready to type! (mainly hearts and key smashs)
HENRYYYYYYY!!!!!! I know you have good intentions but you are giving my blorbo even more of a complex than he already has :(
*lights up the bat signal to let Bruce know to make sure he has the emergency adoption papers ready*
Of course William would have the fucking audacity I want to hit him (and I know that that man is so good an actor probably the only member of the batfamily to notice anything off would be Cass and ether she’s not settled enough to go to galas yet or literally hasn’t joined the family)
There is no doubt in my mind that he pulled out the “I am so sorry about the loss of your son Mr Wayne. There is no pain worse than the loss of a child. I would know” I want to break his nose
Is it really a robin teen vigilante romance if it doesn’t start with a misunderstanding and a fight?
Of course she’s a good actor, she loves playing pretend. kill me
Tumblr media
I have no words for this one just tears
Tim: Hey guys! this is my boyfriend Michael.
*the entirety of Young Justice about to beat up a corpse Because he has bad vibes*
Tim making distance between them with his bo: Back! Back I say!
Tumblr media
I love her so much💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕 her little hat is everything to me

Sexiest Podcast Character — Scripted Bracket — Finals
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda
Captain Isabel Lovelace (Wolf 359):
Her everything <3 But in all seriousness WHAT is more sexy than a haunted, competent, funny, cursed, vengeful, mourning, badass, doomed woman?
listen to the run and hide speech and tell me that isn't the sexiest thing you've ever heard
Hot space lady who could kill me mmm yes please!
(sort of) twice-undead space captain who wired a bomb to her heart to make sure the crew of her ship didn't kill her before her escape shuttle got working. she's funny she's a genius she knows how to use a gun and she cares very much about her crew (despite the whole bomb thing).
#LOVELACE #idk who she’s up agaunst really tbf #but she cares so SO much #she gets boiled down to ’tough scary lady hot’ a lot (which 100% agree) but #she is heartbroken about her failure to keep her crew safe #and stubbornly wants to make sure none of it is in vain #even if it kills her #HOT. ​even apart from how hot her monologues and threats to hilbert are #also her and eifel laughing and getting along when they first meet her 😭 yall #anyway. lovelace 1000%. the defense rests
Vote Lovelace cuz of the way she says "Hi honey, I'm home" to the bastard who shot her in the head, and then how she proceeds to beat him up <3 Oh. And how she twists his arm and says "good boy". Yeah.
LOVELACE SWEEP LOVELACE SWEEP GO LISTEN TO HER RUN AND HIDE SPEECH AND WEEP THAT GODDARD AERONATICS EVER KILLED HER ENTIRE CREW AND ALSO HER (she recovered) AND MADE HER THEIR ENEMY
#LOVELACE SWEEP. DO NOT FUCKING LET ME DOWN #Lovelace is so much to me #Seen some people in the notes citing the run and hide speech#Which is very good #but my personal favorite Lovelace thing is variations on a theme #The cyclical nature of trauma #The lack of trust #The fear #the sadness #‘You can never go home. You were home. And now you’re back— and you can never go back.’ #Lovelace hearing Hera say something to her and #Thinking ‘what she’s actually saying is that I’m a demon and she would be glad to kill me in a slow and horrifying manner’ #Is so #I don’t agree that Lovelace is doomed either #Like #lovelace did die. But #She got out of that pain and trauma #How do you listen to her say that she is Isabel Lovelace #That she rejects the person that pain made her to be #And say she’s doomed
captain lovelace helped 12yo me realise I like women. She’s so hot. her threatening Hilbert is the sexiest thing I’ve ever heard. isabel lovelace SWEEP
If you don't vote for lovelace you're all lying about supporting womens' wrongs.
Not to be dramatic or anything, but I will never forgive any of you if you let Lovelace lose. She's tragic, she's haunted, she's an alien clone, she's vengeful but trying to be a better person. SHE DIDNT DIE TWICE FOR Y'ALL TO LET HER LOSE THE SEXIEST PODCAST CHARACTER TOURNAMENT. And I'm sorry. The part when (see propaganda above) she is intentionally pissing off Kepler so in the event he kills one of the hostages it's her instead of Eiffel??? Shit talking Kepler AND trying to save Eiffel's life? Serving absolute cunt. Sexiest moment of all time, actually.
Are we all forgetting that her introduction involved keeping a dead man switch for her spaceship (converted into a bomb) wired into her goddamn HEART??? Vote Lovelace or else
VOTE FOR ISABEL LOVELACE, HOTTEST WOMAN ON THIS PLANET (AND OUT OF THIS WORLD 🤘). she is everything to me , always . im head over heels
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hera (Wolf 359):
I don't care if she's an AI with no physical form, she is HOT
my digital wife <3
oh it's always "i want a hot computergirl with poor cable management to glitch on my shit" and "i want to fuck her until she bluescreens" on this website until it's time to put your money where your mouth is. i have a post about usb penetration with tens of thousands of notes. i see the things you all say. you have a hot computergirl in front of you and this is how you all repay her? you would abandon her? prove yourselves as the computer sex website; vote for hera NOW!!!
"everyone voting Hera in this round is doing it strictly because she is an AI" WRONG. INCORRECT. everyone voting for hera is doing it because she's funny and thoughtful and passionate and wears her heart on her sleeve despite all of the times people have let her down. because she's anti-authority, and that's sexy. it's sexy that she's an AI because the way she navigates being a woman in that context is inherently transgender, and THAT'S sexy, but on its own? not even like, top five most relevant things about her. self-determination? that's sexy.
VOTE FOR HERA. i'm not done. i've made the case that she would want this more, and that's true, but you should also want her. the propaganda says she doesn't have a physical form - in one sense, that's true, but she DOES have an internal self-image and the desire for physicality. most of the physical sensations she's experienced so far have been painful - think of what you could do for her. she has human desire without the means to act on it. she's the most touch starved anyone has ever been. making love to someone who can't be touched by conventional means IS inherently sexy and it IS a win for disabled trans women everywhere.
she's passionate and kind of emotionally unstable and fiercely loyal - "officer eiffel? he's your deadman's switch. if you let him die, or if you do anything that doesn't fall under the category of do no harm, i will go off. i will rain acid on your ass. i will crank the temperature in the room so high that your skin will crack, and bubble, and burn. i will vent you into space through a hole the size of a quarter. and if i am feeling very, very generous, i won't do all those things slowly." like come on!! what more do you want!!
VOTE FOR HERA. my final, last-minute appeal: her character arc is fundamentally about identity, autonomy, and being seen the way she wants to be seen. the way she navigates her identity as a woman in this context is inherently transgender, and that IS sexy. she's funny, she's passionate, she's sweet, she's been let down repeatedly by almost everyone she's ever met and she still opens her heart to people because she so badly craves connection. she's frustrated, touch starved, and pent up, and was initially rejected from service because of her impulsive, emotional, unorthodox way of thinking. i have so much more i could say on her behalf, but this IS a contest of sex appeal. thinking outside the box, breaking rules, and reaching beyond the limitations of her own form is so central to who she is. hera could come up with freak shit beyond the comprehension of the average person, and she IS enthusiastic enough to make it work.

come here boy. grabs you by the shoulder. i need you to talk about denima. i need you to go into your local gameshop and i need you to ask about denima to anyone who will listen. i need you to do this. do not come back until you have talked about denima. /j ref
AND.. COMPLETELY UNPROMPTED..... THE PEOPLE ASK ME TO TALK ABOUT DENIMA (i asked two times) (three if you count telling ark about it on call)
Anyway as an aro person I really relate to Denima in the summer party arc a lot. Especially as a scared 8th grader reading the comic, it just... it hits me now that I understand/understood exactly how she felt in that moment of seeing Beryll on call with Kuiper instead of enjoying the party.
SO LIKE. here's the whole deal. I did not like her for awhile when I was first introduced to her. Part of it was something I've just grown out from, i.e. shipping; I still do a fair amount of shipping, but I think it's so much more interesting to think about like. being aromantic and relationships in that context rather than trying to project myself onto characters I'll never fully understand because they're Not aromantic. But I understand Denima, even if she isn't, because more than ever I read her as aromantic.
Esp as like, a woman character, I feel like she gets a lot of hate. And yes she's not the main focus of the blog nor a main character and as such she will be ignored by the fans unless she does something horribly wrong like in the summer party arc. But I feel like while Beryll and Denima might be a little upset with each other rn / not understanding each other (in part because Beryll has not told her about like. the whole Crush On Kuiper + has not been really talking to her at all from what I understand) what she did wasn't... that horrible, it was like. an outburst yes from insecurity yes but maybe its because I don't understand relationships that well that I am like. "excusing" her actions (I actually think that yes there's a very bad element to trying to say who gets to be friends with who so I am not defending that) but I am trying to say that if she's insecure, esp since Beryll is her best friend, we don't have to go all crazy on her. like it's okay to simmer down a bit. like yes she's insecure and shouldn't be pushing Beryll to Not be friends with Kuiper but at the same time I don't think what she did was awful/irredeemable/shes a bad person.
But like as an aro person esp before I found my partner I was totally like. alone in the world. I'm autistic and schizoaffective and that severely impacts my speech patterns/how I view the world/relationships. And yes I had friends but if I remember correctly whoever was the host at the time didn't feel that connected to them. It was a strange existence, where they were constantly worried about being "left behind" for a romantic partner/different friend while at the same time being unable to express these feelings and disconnected from people they called friends. Denima did express these feelings, maybe in a Bad and Toxic Way but she did, and for that they Really Did Not Like Her
So reading her as aromantic feels so good to us. She's aromantic; she wants her best friend back. We even relate to her as an autistic person; change, such as a change in relationships, is Hard and Scary and Awful and Must be avoided at All Costs. So maybe these two things make it easier for us to relate to her and sympathize with her. Idk.
Anyway so we feel like there's a lot of nuance when it comes to Denima but it boils down to I LOVE DENIMA "DISASTER MASTER" DIASTIER

Signal arrival part 1
He got curious as to where Mimi was leading him. It was odd that anything of Tak would lead him anywhere good. There was an urgency that piqued his curiosity.
As he got to the edge of the treeline, Zim ducked to hide when he heard voices. More out of basic instinct.
It was Tak and judging from the uniform, another Invader. Tak was pinned to a tree by the others Pak leg.
Now I know what I was smelling before. That was blood. Yet there is another sent mixed in with Tak's blood.
"Why are you defending him, Tak?!"
Tak laughed, despite her pain. "Defending him, I just refuse to let anyone else kill him but me."
"We already took the possible defector you were hiding. This is your last chance to tell me where Zim is. Do so and maybe I'll give you an honorable death." The invader glared.
Defector? The only other ones on this planet are Miyuki and...no, no way this guy got to them.
Tak just spits blood in the guy's face as a response. "Save your speeches for someone who cares, Larb."
At this point, if he waited any longer, Tak was going to be killed. Before Larg could strike, Zim moved a Lazer to deflect it.
"Of course, the great Zim is more than capable of fighting his own battles." He grinned as Larb released Tak.
I've been trying so hard, but I don't think anyone would mind if I was less merciful with this one.
Tak just groaned in pain before looking at Zim. "You idiot, I don't need you butting in."
"Like this isn't Zim's fight to start with." He shrugged as he was doing his best to at least let Tak have her pride intact.
Larb glared as he began to approach. "You've become more trouble than your worth Zim. Surprised it took this long for the Tallest to order your death."
If Larb was expecting a reaction from that he was mistaken. If it was a few years ago, Zim would have been crushed to know any of that. That or deny it was even possible.
Maybe I don't kill him. That way they at least know to get off my planet.
"Are we going to get to the part where you are scary?" Zim smirked.
Tak ignored the shock of Zim's reaction as she turned her attention back to Larb. "You were hunting before this."
Larg grinned as he lifted the Pak leg that had blood on it. "Getting upset over the monkey I killed. That defector had the nerve to even share a space with that human."
Zim wasn't listening to the banter as the reality narrowed in on him. Now he was sure of the other blood smell.
He hurt Zes. I'm back to killing him now. Pathetic he thinks she's dead. More pathetic he can hurt what is mine.
Zim rushed in, faster than the other two expected, and grabbed Larb's Pak leg. "That will be your last mistake, worm."
Now he remembered Larb, this was an elite a few years ahead of him. It didn't really matter in the long run. He parried and blocked each move.
Everyone always seemed to forget that Zim was also trained as an elite.
Zim grabbed Larg's Pak legs and tossed him into the tree. Tak didn't even have time to process what she was watching as Zim continued.
Larb laughed. "I always knew, if you were serious, then that would be the day. Too bad you defective trash."
Even though the lazer hit it's mark. Zim made no signs that it even affected him. His side was bleeding, but it wasn't anything he wasn't used to before.
Now I understand. He took Zes by supprise. He's the pitiful coward.
Zim held him back as Larb tried to launch himself. Zim almost grinned at the thrill from this battle. It was the moment that arrogance returned that Zim was losing the upper hand.
"Good show, be proud I'm giving you the honor of dying in battle. You can be a real Irken at last."
Just as he was about to strike, a series of explosions targeted each leg. The force alone was enough to knock Larb away from Zim.
Zim sighed as he turned to the only person it could be. He could smell the blood from here.
"Worry about yourself before Zim you fool!"

This was supposed to be an author's note for Chapter 5: I’ve Opened by Mind, Yet I am Blind for Blessed by Khonshu, My Son Comes Back to Me to explain my reasoning behind Sabah Nur's why he acts the way that he does.
I have a pet peeve in writing is the idiot plot.
Don't get me wrong there is a time and place for it. I love me some Bride Wars or your Flash Gordon's Emperor Ming who revival in the camp and who doesn't skim through the Evil overlord list. But you knows its comedy and we can laugh at the absurdity and the larger than life antics and emotions. Or even your Dr. Doofenshmirtz, his entire schtick is this. But I don't mind it! I enjoy Back to the Future II because you know the story and characters are great and I can overlook it.
Sometimes characters do not have all the information or their egos into the way or they do not listen and they make the wrong decisions or a stupid decision; which for me is perfectly alright.
My beef with the idiot plot is when there are instances of the idiocy of the characters drives the plot forward in order to work. Theses are your Prometheus. I enjoy this despite its flaws and also Michael Fassbender performance saved this movie; the forced conflict of a character withholding information and not just sitting down and talking about in romantic movies that could have been so easily solved in the first act.
Its the writing equivalent of twisting your characters into pretzel in order, and deliberately writing them out of character for convivence and not really putting in the effort and thinking through would X character response to this situation and/or crisis. For me this bad writing.
Now, its one thing for your Emperor Ming or Dr. Doofenshmirtz to be idiotic in their villainy. But, we're talking about one of the X-Men's biggest big bad: Apocalypse. He's one of the most powerful villains that they ever faced during their runs.
There is a saying: That your hero is only as good as your villain.
The writers XM:A kneecapped Apocalypse for our heroes in order for them to win. It takes away from Sabah Nur menace. Apocalypse holds that villain ball hard with Charles delivering his speech to the world and giving Jean his location to save him. It sabotages the characters, so it requires less of them in order to defeat Apocalypse or the situation that they are in. Things happen to the characters like Wolverine making mincemeat at Akali lake that require very little of our characters to escape.
So the defeat feels less earned; its cheating in order for the writer to get the results that they wants. Its like technobabble, it isn't your characters thinking their way out of problem, its magic and no more explanation is needed. If your characters are pressed against wall and they can either fight, think or talk to get themselves out.
I get the feeling this why the Jean unleashing the phoenix felt so underwhelming because It isn't our heroes exhausting all possibilities of defeating Apocalypse, where he outsmarted them, out fought them and won at every front and the X-Men can just barely defeat him with all their powers combined, but it isn't enough. Therefore, they do need the Deus ex Machina of the Phoenix in order to defeat him.
The other X-Men movies didn't require the villains: Trask, Stryker (both young and old), Shaw, Senator Kelly or Magneto to be stupid in order for the heroes to defeat them; quite the opposite, their intelligence made more scary and adding to the challenge for our heroes to overcome.
The sentinel are the X-Men cinematic universe equivalent of the fucking Borg; if you had an ad agency advertising futility the DOFP future! sentinels would be it.
XM:A needed to go through several more drafts because this is just sloppy writing and nowhere the caliber of DOFP and FC.
Also you have Oscar God-damn Isaac How could not make this work???
There are parts of this movie that work really damn well for En Sabah Nur because he can be damn scary if the writers allow him to be.

Re: that ask game post i just reblogged
under a readmore because it's gonna be long. it's about Hasami, obviously.
1: she does have a big one, but she can only sleep with it at home, because, you know. you can't really bring a big stuffed wolf plushie on a mission. (Yes, it's a wolf. She didn't buy it herself, it was a present when she was younger, because giving wolf-related items as presents to an inuzuka is just like. The thing to do. Obviously the wolf-clan girl likes dogs.)
2: plant: no. pet: yes, but only because most childhood chores were some variation of "go take care of puppies". child: absolutely not. please do not attempt to make her hold a baby.
3: this isn't a problem until she's been working as a ninja for several years but one day she realizes that the majority of her friends are incredibly strong, lethal women who are occasionally covered in sweat and blood, and now she has to be. normal. about this.
4: does red facepaint/magical seal tattoos count? if so, yes. if not... maybe? I'm not sure.
5: she's not exactly prone to giving speeches but also. she's based on me and I have exactly zero issues with public speaking, so. She could do it? It's just not exactly the kind of thing that comes up.
6: I'm not sure about who she'd take advice from, because like. It depends on the subject. But if her first impression of you is that you're annoying, she will probably never listen to anything you say, ever. If someone else comes along and agrees with them, she might listen. To them. But she won't be happy about it.
7: im not doing this one because i am incapable of being concise :)
8: Frustrate. She is. She can be smart. But also. She is mostly built for stabbing things. She tried to ask Tenten about fuinjutsu one (1) time to save money on exploding seals and the barest simplest most stripped down fuinjutsu felt like trying to do trigonometry without a calculator. Please do not give this girl a puzzle that cannot be solved with some form of violence.
9: Yes, because I do too. But it's not such a big deal to her because there's more important things, like not dying.
10: She's just fine at the age she is now.
11: Save most of it, but like. Maybe a couple impulse purchases. (Does konoha even HAVE a lottery? Also how would she win, she wouldn't buy a ticket.)
12: Give her a few years.
13: She gets taught lots of life skills, because Ninja Mom. But maybe the most important thing she learned is the fact that sometimes very scary things will just happen and it will be awful and people will lie to you and everyone will just treat it as completely normal!! Thanks!!
14: She would, but also, I haven't thought of any she has. Hrm.
15: Hates cleaning things because they're just going to get dirty again ANYWAYS.
16: I'm going to assume this is for like. Fancy occasion type stuff. Because ninja wear the cost is less important than "will this be a hindrance in a fight y/n". So for NON-mission related clothes. She would like to wear an extremely fancy layered kimono at some point.
17: She IS a children, but even so: not really!! Kids konohamaru's age and younger are mentally classified as "annoying brats"
18: Give her a few years.
19: Studying is hard but if you get good points on the practical that makes up for it!! Also what is a "job interview" she signed up to be a child soldier at age six, and as such never has to worry about them. Because she is already a tool of the state.
20: At some point on a C-rank her team is going to eat at a restaurant that sells food which is like. The naruto-equivalent of western food. Hasami is the ONLY person who likes it, and is SO ANNOYED that she can't get any in konoha. I would say something cheese-based, but I'm not sure if that's common in the elemental nations or not. I know they have cows. But I don't know if cheese is popular.
21: please stop asking about dating questions she is twelve and an idiot
22: no, they're LAME
23: Stability. Novelty is nice but she gets a lot of that in just normal missions. "Stability" is good, when your chosen profession is violence. Unfortunately she lives in konoha, and *looks at orochimaru. and pein. and obito.* uh oh!!!
24: Honesty. Yes she knows there's lots of lies involved in ninja society, but that does not mean she has to Like It.
25: She would probably prefer safety for some stuff, but also: sometimes it is literally not on the table. Unfortunately you do have to take risks as a ninja. A lot. All the time.
26: They are not mutually exclusive even talented people have to put in effort and even people who have to work hard are better at some things than others.
27: Vengeance : )
28: please stop asking about dating questions she is twelve and an idiot
29: She very occasionally dreams about non-narutoland stuff and it is frustrating because that's not her life anymore. Especially annoying when she dreams about traffic because not only should she not have to deal with that anymore, but: she can't even complain about it to other people.
30: The only people who she would care enough to want forgiveness from she wouldn't want to do anything bad to them. She would feel guilty!!! But also, like, she could kill an enemy ninja and Not Really Care because, uh. That's life!! She reincarnated just fine so really if death is the end for you thats a skill issue. Also edo tensei exists so there is SOME form of ninja heaven, clearly.
