when adam met 11yo keith he immediately knew that keith was gay and was like i have GOT to support this kid!! (runs into traffic) meanwhile shiro spent years operating under the assumption that keith had like a gender thing going on

#do you see my vision #voltron #shiro #keith #adashi #people are like 'haha voltron renaissance!! klance 4ever!!' meanwhile i'm still stuck in the adashi mines #shiro wasn't entirely wrong but adam was more right. #i like to imagine young adult adam and shiro are going to bed and adam is like 'we need to talk about keith.' #shiro (immediately): don't listen to iverson that guy has it out for keith. #adam: no that's- it's really cute how you always immediately have keith's back. but no i'm talking about supporting keith as he grows up #adam: because i think keith is like Us. if you get my meaning. #shiro: huh.. (oh!! Gender.) i wasn't sure if i should bring it up but yeah i've noticed a couple things.. what's our game plan? #adam: (giving a heartfelt speech about making sure keith always feels loved and cherished) #shiro: (earnestly listens but also in the back of his mind he's planning on how to casually introduce gender-neutral pronouns to keith) #adam is waiting with bated breath for keith to bring a boy home meanwhile shiro is like geez this egg is taking a while to crack... #shitpost #wait this post makes more sense if you buy into my other vision which is that shiro is transgender. always assume im writing trans shiro.

I’m not judging people who listen to the leaks but I will say that I don’t understand the appeal of listening before the official release bc for me the fun of it all is hearing the album for the first time all together and getting online and seeing everyone’s immediate reactions and knowing we’re all experiencing this rush of excitement together no matter where we are in the world. It just feels lonely to listen alone ahead of time.

#like I understand casual fans listening to leaks but I feel like as a devoted fun it’s so much more fun to listen all together? #ar the end of the day tho you do you like I’m not judging #it’s not like the leaks are gonna affect her sales lol #taylor swift #the tortured poets department #swifties

Okay but a thought of mine given new rise by the animated intro after having it niggle at the back of my mind for months now are Ludinus and Otohan as villains and who’s going to be standing as the final big bad at the end of the campaign, the way Vecna and Lucien did for c1 and c2.

Because the obvious answer is Ludinus. He’s the instigator, the leader of the cult, a villain in the making for 2 whole campaigns and over a thousand years (not to mention the one who's actually interacted with the party outside of fights). But Otohan is the one standing center stage of the villain line-up in the opening. She’s the one shown actively fighting the party. And, more importantly (as narrative matters more than barely glimpsed easter eggs), she's the one tied to the history and setting of Marquet, who has actual stakes in the people there and has fought for (and against) them before in the Apex War (while the place Ludinus called home was torn down centuries ago, leaving him caring for seemingly nothing but his ultimate goal since). She’s the one who’s actually Ruidusborn, and she’s tied to the Luxon as well with her strange magic. And despite all this, she’s mostly passed under the radar so far, given very little developments or motives or history or even personality. She’s little more than a cool aesthetic and a handful of threats.

And here’s my thought: maybe that’s on purpose. Ludinus, in his great arrogance, has placed himself as the greatest threat, and he’s being treated as such by the Hells. But is he? He steals immortality, appropriates the very concept of being Ruidusborn while holding a secret resentment for lacking the very powers it grants. He barely knows what he’s doing, and certainly not what he's about to unleash. And is there anything more satisfying than seeing a deeply arrogant and hubristic villain taken down by his own folly in underestimating those around him? So what if, as the final fight edges closer, the person actually holding the powers Ludinus pretends to steps up out of the shadows she placed herself in, keeping her motives to herself, barely remarked upon by Ludinus or the Hells or the audience, and personally cuts him down and takes her place as THE exalted Ruidusborn?

#critical role #cr3 #ludinus da'leth #otohan thull #listen seeing arrogant villains who think themselves unbeatable taken down in great battles is cool and all #but there’s something deeply satisfying in seeing them made small by something utterly avoidable #ludinus thinks of the gods as his ultimate enemies #imagine the horror and confusion on his face if his right hand woman #(the one who’s place and powers and land he's brazenly laid claim to) #casually steps up and stabs him in the back #revealing that she’s been playing him since the start to grow her power while keeping her actual motives close to her chest #mr mercer i am begging you let us know more about otohan and the apex war. let her be more than a battle piece with a fancy backpack #not tagging this as spoilers bc it isn’t but I SURE HOPE IT WILL BE #nella talks cr

emo Nico x scene Will Solace...

#pjo #riordanverse #nico di angelo #will solace #solangelo #i need them to be cringe (affectionate) teenagers okay #give me Will with a hardcore homestuck phase and streaks in his hair dyed with kool-aid and striped armsocks #date night is Will teaching Nico how to make kandi bracelets #if youve been here awhile you may know i am a scene Jason believer and the same concepts apply here #listen i just think. emphasizing Nico being emo and giving him a scene boyfriend #its very important though that only certain riordanverse chars fit the vibe to be scene kids #like i dont think Percy would be as much as i want him to be #its antithetical to his character (internalized ableism/bad self-loathing/keeps his head down) #Will and Jason on the other hand would use XD unironically and have a total ball making sparkledog fursonas #Alex Fierro. DEFINITE scene kid. Magnus is already just kind of a little emo. Sadie is a definite yes. Carter. maybe. #i think he'd be adverse at first but kinda get into it casually yknow. he'd dig kandi bracelets at least. #probably get really into linguistic breakdown of xD rAnDoM speech just for fun #Walt no but he could. like. i think he'd be open to trying it. but its not his default state. #Zia. doesnt have the energy but i kinda wanna see it regardless. i think itd be fun for her but on her own she'd lean more goth #Leo? maybe. depends. he's more into doing stuff ironically. Piper. yes. but specifically as an f-you to conventional fashion #Reyna no. Frank maybe. Hazel yes. Thalia maybe. Annabeth hmm. maybe #i think thats all the main casts. Alabaster? YES and i wanna see it. #anyways thank you for coming to my emo x scene ted talk and character evaluations in the tags

Sonic having unexpected bits of secondhand expertise that he gets from his friends:

His coding skills wouldn't last a single second against anyone actually competent but he can hack Shadow's Netflix password every time it changes.

He knows how to brew a perfect cup of tea and also how to bake exactly one (1) cake.

Around the specific latitudes that Angel island tends to float around in he goes looking for a particular kind of edible plant that a certain someone showed him how to identify. He likes to snack on it when he's bored.

He's able to estimate the value of a piece of jewelry based off the quality of the gem. Knows the difference between a 'karat' and a 'carat'.

He can look at bullet holes and have a decent guess at the caliber of the gun that shot them. He could also, in a pinch, fully disassemble a HK45 Tactical pistol and put it back together again.

Fishing. You get the idea.

#sonic #sonic the hedgehog #tails #tails the fox #amy the hedgehog #amy rose #rouge the bat #shadow the hedgehog #Big the cat #Sonic likes listening to people infodump :) #tails and rouge are pretty self-explanatory but all the rest of his friends do it too #amy either casually chats about baking or gives hellacious rants about current climate change politics #knuckles LOVES explaining his day-to-day food prep routines on angel island if given the chance. he loves his island and all its plants #and shadow explains how everything in his pistol functions as he disassembles it to clean it after a day at the range #please feel free to add more if you want!!

genuinely i think if i have to see taylor swift’s name one more time i’m going to start breaking things.

#i liked her casually as a kid #and i still like a lot of her music now #but i can barely even fucking listen to it anymore bc she is EVERYWHERE #like literally i don’t care about her and i don’t care about travis whoever #and i don’t even care about her in a negative way like i don’t care if she’s selfish and narcissistic and a performative activist #and her jet emissions or whatever #bc literally 90% of celebrities are like that she’s not special #i am just so tired. of people ALWAYS talking about her #and being expected to have an opinion and be up to date with whatever meaningless drama is going on #genuinely no hate to my friends that like taylor bc i don’t mind that #it is more just like. Everywhere #i cant even go on tiktok without seeing her name 300 times i cant DO THISSS #ok. rant over. 😭

Alright I told someone I would give propaganda for these two so here we go. As a warning, I didn't play mobile or Re-Mind soooooooo. Yeah there's that. I know they're apparently involved in past stuff but shhh.

So first off, everyone's weapon is super useful! Except theirs. Which I always thought was really funny? Even in Re:CoM Zexion's book was more direct than these two. I really enjoyed them just as the most indirect fighters? And figured they'd be pretty chill and after playing KH2 as a kid I'm like. I think Luxord would be most tolerable to music while vibing. He could play Solitaire or something while Demyx played music and possibly chatted. Therefore, my younger self was like "it's perfect".

ALSO CONSIDERING THEIR NUMBERS! And the line in KH3 during the scene where Demyx is like "yup I got benched", they've probably got a history. However, the number they get originally is supposed to be the order they joined. So with Marluxia and Larxene obviously tied together in the past, all I can think of is these two just being absolute bums wandering around pre-Organization and just hitch hiking their way into a cult. Which is also REALLY funny to me because what if they joined at the same time but Demyx got to be IX and Luxord is X.

Demyx would hold his rank over his head for the dumbest stuff (in my head canons of the past).

Like there's so many things we specifically do not know about these two so basically, until I'm proven absolutely incorrect in game (which might have happened and I just don't know) ! I think they'd be a good match.

And I mean, it's also just (gestures) LOOK AT HOW CUTE THEY ARE. Great designs and I think that's good enough for me!

#kingdom hearts #demyx #luxord #i really just looked at these losers when i played kh2 on ps2 and was like wow they should kiss #and now im many years older and i am still like wow they should kiss #also i was telling my sister i was trying to come up with propaganda doodles and im like #yeah its two guys what more would the kh fandom need ya know #and she looks at me and goes did you really just say they're two guys thats enough #and i was ??? YEAH?????? FOR KH? theres like ten girls and ten games what more do i get to work with #and she sat there listing games in the series (she hasn't played any but she watched me play 1 and 2) #and counted eight and then i listed some more and she was like ok you know what thats fair #but that said she said the funniest thing ever that i NEED to draw but its too late for tonight #so you guys will get more of them at some point #also im still amused that luxord in kh3 appears after demyx says hes benched #and proceeds to say WELL AT LEAST I WASNT BENCHED like super casually and demyx just ouch you were listening thats rude #like they're supposed to be vessels and yet they still manage to have a bicker moment over importance of roles

Cornelius complaining that he has no special talent compared to all of Rozemyne's other retainers makes me think of him as the token neurotypical of the team.

#ascendance of a bookworm #honzuki no gekokujou #being basic is his superpower #really being one of the few people Rozemyne will actually listen to is his real power #but only when he's in big brother mode #as a retainer he has no more power over her than anyone else #he can thank Tuuli for that #i really want them to meet casually to talk about her

Arthur Conan Doyle: what if there was a detective and he was super mysterious and badass and like the smartest man alive but of course was misunderstood and an outcast but in a cool way.

Agatha Christie: what if there was a detective but he was a tiny little fancy man and no one ever took him seriously no matter what he does because of white on white racism. and he's got a silly mustache.

#here we have the true root of what boys think is fun verses what girls think is fun #i think poirot is way more accessible to women and sexual/gender minorities in a way sherlock isnt #except that is for the gays #they are equally accessible to the gays #i just think the casual dismissal of poirot's abilities simply because he's “a foreigner” is very much the story of womanhood #casual and systemic dismissal of your abilities based on a small technicallity such as not having been born a certain way? #that should speak to anyone who isnt a cis white man these days #and it should speak to the cis white men who care enough to listen #anyway #sociological rant in a literary meme post! #hercule poirot #sherlock holmes #agatha christie #arthur conan doyle #detective fiction

Something I love to think about are how Mikey and Leo’s mystic abilities (+ how those abilities affect their respective selves) parallel each other.

Likewise, I believe that Donnie and Raph’s mystic abilities do the same with each other.

#non au #rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt headcanons #listen I have a whole red string pepe silvia theory on this topic #one little snippet is how both Mikey and Leo’s mystics turn their bodies into mystic particles #the difference is that Mikey’s mystics are more powerful but have more fatal drawbacks #whereas Leo can casually pretty much atomize his entire being at will just without a super strong attack or spell to go with it #one thing I think of is how Mikey’s mystic ability aligns more with versatility whereas Leo’s aligns more with adaptability #and YES those are two different things #*shuts up before I go off on Tangents*

i love the difference between jaiden and bobby’s relationship vs roier and bobby’s because with jaiden bobby’s very sweet, very willing to help, kind of the most perfect angel who just really loves his mom and with roier he’s just as willing and loving but he also dunks on roier whenever he can and does not hesitate to shoot him. kind of the most family ever

#icarus speaks #icarus liveblogs #animations family #and it’s very obvious it’s him picking up their traits and mirroring them! #jaidens very sweet to bobby and dotes on him to no end #she’s never even jokingly mean to him or pushes his buttons #but roier is! he likes teasing people and doesn’t hesitate to play up the theatrics #he acts a lot more casual with bobby! he calls him dude and pokes fun at him #so ofc bobby mirrors those behaviors when he’s alone w them! #and ofc when they’re both together you really see the fruit of their efforts #because he’s kind and sweet but also speaks his mind and stands his ground #he listens to them because he knows they know best but also he’s not opposed to making his voice heard #and making sure they know his thoughts on the matter at hand #just. them. augh
