Compilation of screenshots of Weiss looking at Penny

because I noticed in my most recent rewatch that there's a certain level of softness in these expressions that I haven't seen Weiss express towards anybody else and it's been driving me insane /pos

#(it's a bit more obvious in some of these than others but still) #I haven't finished my current rewatch so maybe in v9 she'll give this look to somebody else but so far it's been only Penny and that's- #-what's really getting me #she's done soft affectionate looks towards others too of course but there's just like this tiny extra bit in some of these that seems- #-exclusive to just Penny #ESPECIALLY THE ONES FROM V3. WEISS ESPECIALLY DOESN'T DO SOFT LOOKS OFTEN PRE-V5 THEY WERE SO RARE BACK THEN WHAT IS HAPPENING #I'm gonna be thinking about this for weeks sorry- #rwby #frostbyte #weiss schnee #penny polendina

the way that silver said "I will stand here with you an hour, a day, a year" to flint and "I will wait a day, a month, a year, forever" to madi....I'm sick to my stomach. who is doing unhinged devotion like this man

#I have no doubt this exact post was made ten years ago or whenever the finale aired #but I'M NEW HERE #black sails #black sails spoilers #lauren feels things #the way that silver is just like...'oh there's a strong willed person who wants to change the entire world with their strong will?' #guess they're my life now! #the way that flint and madi are sooooooo similar #except that silver diagnoses flint perfectly! he mostly just wants to burn the world! #whereas madi actually has true strength of conviction and ideals #and silver #who has been living with james 'my way or the highway but also if you outsmart me I might grudgingly respect you #but my whims are going to be IMPOSSIBLE to understand or track' flint #sees madi and is like 'yeah she'll be mad for a little while but we'll move past it' #and maybe they do! but he soooo miscalculates I love it #also the way that he looks at madi when she is looking at flint after they're all safe #is........so insane #loves her knows she loves him #is obsessed with flint #and yet the fact that madi respects and trusts flint #and that they share so much naturally in their thinking that silver has hard won #drives him craazyyyyyy #ANYWAY I'M UNWELL CAN YOU TELL

anyone else getting nervous about the lack of info about the book 10 title?

#she ALWAYS GIVES US A DAY'S WARNING #and she ALWAYS ANNOUNCES IT ON A WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY #so if she was planning to announce it this week she would've said something by now #right? #and in the past when she's gone past feb 1 without announcing the title it's because there isn't a normal book coming out #unlocked/the graphic novel/no book #this book has already been delayed a year so i don't think she'd delay it again but she DID just have a new baby #maybe she'll do the book of short stories that she's mentioned wanting to do? #i'm extrapolating based on extremely limited data though #so there's no reason for me to be coming to any conclusions #but i'm the king of overthinking

so...it seems like ruby wants to ascend to be like summer.

but given that it's been said that the tree and ascension are about "acceptance", i don't think ruby is really going to ascend in the traditional sense.

ruby's goal for herself and her identity has always been to "be like the heroes in the books".

and now we've seen how jaune has handled that mindset (hint: it wasn't a great way of thinking. ouch).

part of that identity has been centered around summer. she inherited her emblem. she inherited her silver eyes. she's always being compared to her, and she's been living in her mother's shadow—"super mom", the perfect hero.

Qrow: You're special the same way your mom was.

rather, that's the version of summer that ruby has held onto. she's trying to live up to an expectation that was never really set in the first place, because summer wasn't perfect.

Yang: Mom took a risk the day she left. And I don't think it went the way she wanted it to, but she's still my hero.

which—side tangent—i feel like is part of the reason yang didn't seem to notice just how far ruby was falling, so to speak.

yang doesn't see summer as such complete perfection, but she's still her hero.

Yang: It's not like we were asking her to be perfect.

and of course, she (and everyone but ruby herself, really) doesn't expect perfection from ruby either.

and don't get me wrong, yang still definitely idolizes summer—just in a different way from ruby. ruby's idolization of summer is much more...unhealthy. she feels like ruby rose is not enough, but that summer rose is.

Ruby: And it never, ever goes away. The feeling of not being...enough. The Blacksmith: And how would you measure...enough?

that being said, i'm getting the feeling that we may be getting some insight into summer, whether that be through some flashbacks of her failures, or maybe even how she died (i can only dream).

through that, i think ruby might be able to finally accept herself, because summer wasn't perfect either. ruby is not her, she's her own person.

and she's enough.

#yeah im so emo about this episode how could you tell? #also i feel like the idea of ruby ascending causing her to change into someone else in any way is kind of...backwards #especially with the suicidal implications of the tea drinking #i don't think it would sit well to me if her way of moving on from that was to 'become enough' as a different person through ascension #rather she needs to accept that she is already enough #maybe she'll get a cool new outfit though #possibly get a unique emblem reflecting her growth #or just get the old one back with a healthier mindset #im down for that #rwby #rwby9 #rwby spoilers #ruby rose #yang xiao long #summer rose

She heard me doing things so she came up to the side of her baby bin and blelelelele'd at me until I noticed her. She greets me every morning where we spend the first hour of every day together, her just resting in my hand and me holding her, often gently petting her head and tiny scales. If there is a heaven, that first hour we spend together is it.

She is getting a larger enclosure for her birthday in a month and a half. :D Hopefully I can get it done in time, as I haven't sculpted a custom enclosure before and will be trying some new artistic critiques. I do have experience sculpting though. My biggest worry is the paints and sealing them properly! Art I can do- but food safe art that will be in a moist bioactive enclosure is new for me.

#From her enclosure camera #hognose #hognose snake #snake #pets #She is getting a bigger enclosure soon it is preordered and we need to wait #She greets me like this every morning #She ate yesterday and should be in a food coma! #You can even see her lump #So I gave her pets and told her I love her #From inside her enclosure the photo of her being held is from yesterday #She really enjoys pets #Especially after a big meal #I need to get a video of her asking for pets #She will pet herself with her chin #And when I stop sometimes she will pet herself with her chin asking for more! #And then I will pet her and she will relax looking like she is in heaven #Those posts saying “snakes cannot enjoy being pet and will only learn to tolerate it” are absolute BS outdated information #from people who are insecure that they are less valid as humans if animals are capable of feeling love and asking for affection #My snake will LITERALLY ASK TO BE PET #And she will pet me too! #I think she saw me petting her #Thought “This feels nice. Is this what we do for each other?” #And when we are snuggling she'll wiggle over to my arm or shoulder and start petting me. She doesn't pet me in any other places. #It is a lot of effort as she has no hands and has to use her chin #moving her whole upper body #So she'll only pet me maybe 20-10 times and take a rest #Does anyone else's snake pet them? #It is unusual but I think maybe she learned it from copying me and it makes her happy ^_^ #What a wonderful world we live in where snakes enjoy being pet

guys are you actually not supposed to treat fictives like their source. i did not know this until now

our fictive(s) is its source ........ like...... so close........... i thought everyone was like this i thought that was the point 😭😭😭

like if you cosplay as yourself in a game and a little kid player comes up to you and excitedly misspells your name most fictives are just like "ew" ???? like genuinely offended/uncomfortable ?? 💔 :0(

are ANY fictives close to their source or is it just me????? i thought i was normal LOL ??????????

im so confused like what even IS a fictive?? is a fictive just someone that stole a fictional character's face and ran ??? i am so fucking sorry for this ignorant ugly post i genuinely from the bottom of my heart thought when people say "im a fictive of The Guy" i thought they mean like "i AM The Guy, with minimal differences" (like, fictionkin?? unless idk what fictionkin is either) but now it seems more like "im a fictive of The Guy" just means "i have The Guy's face i am Not Him" ?

idk maybe im stupid and i dont understand because i havent had any bad interactions about my fiction identities (yet) but idk what someone could even say to me about fictionhood that would make me be like . ew get away from me. yknow ?? ugh this post is so embarassing. im so sorry other fictives reading this

#what is wrong with me maybe this is really obvious to other people but our only experience with fictivity(?????) is like #idk if you call cinnamon barbie she'll just be like. yeah. #we never had this disgust or uncomfortable reaction when ppl call us our source we straight up like it #i thought everyone liked it omfg 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 #im sorry im so sorry i just didnt think about it that hard!!!! i thought i was normal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #not dog #systema sobaky #plurality

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #spoilers #izutsumi #my childhood cat died at age 17 it makes me so sad to think that izutsumi is going to die soon too #at least she found people to take care of her and love her #my cat had a white face too so it took so long for me to realize that she was an old lady #and that cats dont live forever #aw now im so sad #izutsumi is in great shape though so maybe she'll live to be in her 20s #she gives me sophie vibes ngl #from howls moving castle #capable old woman on an adventure to release her curse

watching the first 2 episodes of frieren last year shook me so bad i still can't get myself to continue it, but between what i remember of it and the nightmares episode of dungeon meshi i can't stop thinking about the ways laios would prepare marcille for his death. what would he leave behind to remind her that he (and by extension all the people she loved and who loved her) are still with her in spirit, even if not in body?

#dungeon meshi #laios touden #marcille donato #i'm a laios & marcille are a secret third thing that can't be defined by language truther but make of this what you will i guess lol #if falin does turn out to have an extended life span due to dungeon shenanigans laios would rest easier but he'd def still worry #dungeon meshi spoilers #she might come across the regenerated kensuke at some point but that one was an accident 😅 #i still think he'd train some dogs to accompany her #maybe make a promise w one of the castle staff & their family to keep training dogs through generations so there'll always be a rag for her #would he leave annotations in her magic tomes for her to find years down the road? #oh and he'd rope everyone else in definitely #he'd ask everyone in the party and maybe even kabru et al. & toshiro et al. for good measure #oh and what i meant by frieren shaking me was w each ep i found myself sobbing uncontrollably halfway through #i loved it but it was A Lot for me emotionally #i do remember seeing a post about how one of the reasons himmel had no problem having statues of him made #was bc he was doing it partly in the hope that when frieren sees one she'll remember him & their adventures together #that their time together wasn't just a blip in her life #he may physically be gone but his memory lives on #that really resonated with me #calemonsito notes

Troj doesnt care much about unfamiliar dogs but shes very environmentally strong so we'll go to dog club sessions and people approach us like oh :( i see shes timid :(

Meanwhile Troj's just planted with her butt on the grass going 😌 slack leash, barely awake, brain cells gone off to wherever they go when they're off, perfectly zen and i just have to stand there like mm sure?

#her pandemic puppy trait is that we never met up with that many dogs so she doesnt really seek out new relations #and if dogs are pushy she just moves behind me for personal space #i just love how she'll sit somewhere completely tension free and someone will be like poor baby :(( #because she doesnt pay attention to others and when they get up in her space she moves away #we had one dog trainer w a young bc that RLLY wanted to say hi to troj go 'but she doesnt tell them off either so maybe...?' #and i had to tell her yknow i dont think troj gives a rats about your dogs entire general existence unfortunately

watched the first ep of Dead Boy Detectives today, did anyone also think the dialogue was a bit clunky?

I don't mean it was unwatchable or anything i just feel like it didn't feel realistic the way they introduced the characters and world... It felt like the dialogue was for the viewer instead of an in character thing. We were gonna be introduced to a viewer surrogate within the first few minutes, there was no need to have the characters who already know how the show's world works spell it out for nobody... and then explain it again when Crystal showed up? idk it felt like something I would write (not a complient) 😅

#the line ''we have to hide from death... or she'll get us'' was ridiculous #do you think the boy that's been escaping death since 1919 or whatever doesn't know?! #''we have to hide'' was enough the viewer can put 2 and 2 together and deduce it's bad if death sees them #to then minnutes later have them explain to crystal why they have to hide from death again... #just let the characters adress the camera if you wanna spell it out so easily #or you know... trust that the viewer is intelligent enough to wait 2 minutes for an explanation? #it was mostly just that first few mins of the first ep i think #i didn't pick up on anything else that trully bothered me #but idk it felt condecending dkjfghkdfg or simply badly written #which it was a bit of a let down to have it as a very first impression #i guess i went in thinking sandman and got like idk generic teen show #in the dialogue alone btw i actually really like the characters and the premise is awesome! #it just cuaght me by surprise #maybe it because i'm also watching fallout and the dialogue on that is like very well done and everything is a hint for something later #so i'm comparing it idk #anyways... is it just me? or was it actually clunky? #(don't spoil it past ep 1 pls) #angel talks #dead boy detectives #really liking it so far tho!

I may be grasping at straws here, but I like to think Collei's outfit was made by the same tailor who made Kaveh's. There's several similarities between them!

#and it's cute to think that after seeing this kid in bandages and rags that cyno brought from mondstadt #kaveh's first course of action was to get her nicer clothes #all four of them care so much about collei all in their own way and it's very precious to me #genshin #genshin impact #kaveh #collei #most likely collei's outfit is a little cheaper #she's still growing after all she'll need a new set of clothes after a while #maybe she hopes to be able to buy her own eventually with her earnings as a forest ranger #she's that type of girl she'd like it best if she earned it through her own efforts #though i imagine hers would end up being inspired more by felines rather than by birds like kaveh's is #and with a bit of an influence taken from amber's style #it'd look nice i'm sure #ray's records

I got my little sister into watching Supernatural

The deal is she watches this and I watch One Piece (the anime with more than 1000 episodes). But we watch every episodes of each show together.

This is going to be a busy year for sure. She already knows a lot of things about monsters (like wendigo, djinn and all), so I hope she'll like SPN.

So far we watched the 6 first episodes of season 1. I asked her who she preferred between Sam and Dean. She told me Sam makes her think of Sam from Lord of the Rings. And that Dean is a cliché. I tried not to take it personally.

But she saw my reaction, so she added that it's too soon for her to choose. And I decided to focus on that, just to not be mad at her because she just insulted Dean and by this she attacked my heart.

ANYWAY I'm FINE. I want to watch more. I want her to meet Cas. I want her to feel as insane as me about those characters. But I need to be patient and hope she'll want to keep watching.

I'll keep you posted. Especially because I'll need to let it all out if she keeps thinking that Dean is a cliché.

#supernatural #spn #sam winchester #dean winchester #castiel #I'm doing a whole rewatch at the same time #I'm rediscovering the characters before everything went out of hand #it's interesting #my heart keeps beating stronger for dean #don't get me wrong #sam is fine #but dean #i love him so much #maybe she'll prefer sam since she is the little sister #it would make sense i guess #i don't think she'll ship them #destiel #deancas #i can't wait to see what she thinks of cas #if we make it that far #let's hope #i'll let you know #i love dean winchester so much #my personal experience with spn

Hhmmmm I have been inspired. Have a Constantine and Billy drabble.

“Hey, John, you there? John? Hello? Is the mirror on? Jooohhn! I can see you, ya know. C’mon turn around! C’moncmoncmon pleeeaaas--”

“Oh, for fuck’s sake!” Constantine threw the scrolls down on the desk and whipped around, snagging the cig from edge and glaring at the two-way mirror that sat innocently upon the bookshelf, right where he left it. Right where he could see and hear for whenever one trouble-prone Billy Batson could reach him. The little shit was lucky John deemed pants a worthy effort that day. “What?”

Billy grinned at him, all bright eyed and apple cheeked and very obviously up to no good. It was hardly a wonder why John liked the brat so much. “Do you know how I can get to the veil without actually going through it? I mean, how Marvel could?”

Sometimes, he also really hated how much he liked him. 

Through the steady stream of smoke as inhaled and exhaled, John squinted suspiciously at the kid as he tossed the words about in his head for a moment. “Why the fuck do you wanna go there? Not trying to bring someone back from the dead, are you? Cause necromancy is nasty shit, especially for the Big Cheese.”

“No! I am not doing necromancy. I just need to get to the... the midpoint. Not quite here, but not there yet.” And he said all that in a way John was sure Billy thought he was being rightly clever. That he could dance around saying outright what he wanted, using half truths and side steps, as if John Constantine wasn’t the fucking master of that particular game.

“You mean you wanna get to the Crossroads.” It wasn’t a question.

“Yes.”

Well, John had to give him that - he knew when to not bullshit the bullshitter.

“No.”

“John--!”

“Do you even know what the Crossroads are? Literally and figuratively and spiritually - do you?” 

“I mean--”

“No, no. Lemme finish.” He took a long drag just to give the kid time to pout and rethink whatever nonsense he wanted to get into. “The Crossroads aren’t for the likes of you nor me, got it. Because you know who resides?”

“Well, kinda--”

“The fuckin’ Fates, that’s who! And unless you’re going to them to tell personally and explicitly to fuck off, you’re not setting foot passed this plane of reality. Understood?”

Billy sighed loud and dramatic. A 50/50 on if John’s words got through. “I’m not trying to contact the Fates, John.”

Oh. Well, that was good. 

Still, woulda been a joy to hear about bright and shiny Champion of Magic telling Fates to shove it.

“Then, why the fuck- This isn’t another stupid fuckin’ game Klarion is trying to rope you into, is it? Or a sorry sob story some poor dead sop gave to you about not wanting to move on? Cause there is no goddamn reason you should be having any sort of business there.” And the more Billy delayed telling him the actual truth, the antsier John got. But he knew, deep in his rotted, wicked heart, he knew how to follow these steps. Knew the script Billy wrote by because that was how he lived this long - testing the waters before going head first. John appreciated every wary bone in that kid’s body. Something had to balance out the overwhelming sense of compassion.

This time when Billy sighed, it was more resigned. More coming to terms with the inevitable fact that he was the one that contacted John because he needed to know something, and no matter what, John would tell it to him straight. Wouldn’t tell him no on the sole basis of whatever bullshit the League of Goody Fucks would feed him. Constantine may still very well say no, but he at least gave a good damn reason, thanks.

Blue gaze right on John, “I have business there cause I need to contact the Goddess Hekate to invite her to dinner.”

Oh, for fucks sake.

“Oh, for fucks sake, kid.”

himh I'll make a Dark Urge that's so fucking scared

big scary bloodsoaked killer, tearing through armies with her literal bare hands? nah. a quiet, scared girl who doesn't understand why she does what she does, why she can do what she can, but is, at the same time, deeply disgusted by herself because she has just enough self-awareness to know to be repulsed.

maybe it's because I'm a tiny bit obsessed with clinging to the thought that people, at the end of the day, are fundamentally good, no matter what. that there is a fundamental human goodness in all people that makes them worthy of redemption, or at least of the opportunity for atonement.

maybe the way I want to play a story like that is with someone who, stripped from indoctrination and free for the first time to think for herself and embrace and be who she is, finds that in the deepest, most hidden pits of her soul, she is not the strong, kind, resilient person she might want to be. try as the might, she is not someone who can bear the weight of her own past, she's just a... a terrified, broken little girl, cowering in the shadows and unable to look herself in the eye. (which also gives me ideas for her relationship with Orin but that's a little bit beside the point)
