#nate egos

[hacash]

ok yeah but Jamie making fun of himself for going on Love Island when we know it was a touchy subject...taking himself out of the foreground for the Arsenal match...Nate not spitting at his reflection... and shrugging it off when his big romantic gesture was embarrassing wrecked...my boys are learning to think of themselves less WITHOUT thinking less of themselves

#they're valuing themselves more as people! but also reigning in their egos! I wanna cry! #nate shelley #jamie tartt #ted lasso #ted lasso spoilers

i'm still very sad they didn't do anything at all in season 3 with the Nate & Roy dynamic they'd been building off in the background for the first two seasons, because the layers there were really fascinating.

Starting with like, Roy being the only one to vocally and actively stand up for Nate in season one. At the time I think Nate was appreciative, but I think in hindsight, (rightly or wrongly) it quickly morphs into this mindset that Roy is sort of patronizing and has long viewed him as this weak thing in need of protecting. It feels (in Nate's mind), like Roy swept in to play the savior when it convinced him, but even that was based more around his hatred of Jamie than it was about liking Nate. And we see Nate later think himself proven correct in that thinking after he kisses Keeley and confesses and Roy...barely reacts. Roy, who is furious and angry about everything and everyone every day of his life, is suddenly like "Oh it's fine" when Nate has kissed his girlfriend. Nick Mohammed's commentary that Nate actively saw that as a micro-aggression was so fascinating and makes a lot of sense.

Then you have Roy, who did see season one Nate as someone to protect, but then was also driven to his best performance on the pitch during his final season by Nate's no-bullshit speech before the Everton game. That scene is so effective because it's such a jarring departure for the entire team from how they've previously viewed Nate, and it works for Roy especially because Roy respects people who don't give in to the intimidation he's constantly goading them with and instead tells it to him straight, no words minced (this is why Roy gets along so well with people like Rebecca, Keeley, and Ted, and why the breakthrough moment with Jamie is Jamie calling him out at the gala, etc.). I think there IS a part of Roy that doesn't respect Nate in season 1, which is why he later reacts how he does to Nate's kiss with Keeley, and it's a mindset he's vindicated by when Nate turns on Ted. But that also gets all mixed up with moments like the Everton, with the evidence of Nate being such a good strategist that Roy later finds himself deeply envious of after becoming a coach himself.

During the time they are both coaching together, there's a dynamic there where they both (I think) believe the other person doesn't take them seriously, and it's rooted in a little bit of truth (on both sides!!) that's then wildly exacerbated by their own insecurities. Like, Nate is intimated by the fact that Roy is this rich famous hotshot publicly beloved, so that it feels way out of Nate's league to even be interacting with him. At the same time, he also thinks Roy is a bit of an asshole who doesn't see him as a threat because he doesn't take him seriously, and is (fairly) offended by it. Meanwhile, Roy is intimated by Nate because Nate is so clearly so intelligent, which I think is something Roy is insecure about in general, given his own education being superseded early on by football. He sees Nate as being a more adequate coach than himself because of this. But he also thinks Nate is spineless and whatever respect he had for him (fairly) dissolves completely after Nate goes to the press about Ted.

So it's like, this messy mixture where they both have something the other desperately wants but they can't see at all why the other would possibly be envious of them due to their own insecurities. They are, imo, the two most insecure people on the show in completely different ways. They hate themselves far more than they hate each other, yet they displace the weight of that feeling onto each other; Roy by treating Nate with indifference and Nate by dismissing Roy in his head as an asshole hotshot whose had a great life handed to him and doesn't even appreciate it, whereas Nate has to fight tooth and nail to find success. And it all boils down to them not understanding one another while also having a lot in common under the surface.

Anyway, I think it would be super interesting to see how their friendship or even just their relationship as coworkers develops after season 3, as they both make active attempts at overcoming their insecurities and doing better by themselves and each other.

#ted lasso #roy kent #nate shelley #ted lasso meta #been thinking about this a lot this morning for some reason! #the juicy bit is. They are both RIGHT in thinking the other doesn't respect them. at least a little. #and part of the lack of respect IS because of Roy's ego and Nate thinking of himself as twice as smart as Roy with half the payoff for it #roy is full of himself nate is deeply bitter and it results in unfairly thinking of the other as lesser in some way #but there are also real and valid reasons they lack respect for the other too. rooted in their respective bad actions #ie. nate going to trent roy's microaggressions at nate #and acknowledging why the other might not like them for THOSE reasons gets a little too close to home #as to why they don't like /themselves #so it's easier to just be like roy doesn't like me because he's an asshole. nate doesn't like me because he'd spineless and weak. #idk if that makes sense of if i'm just rambling at this point but like. TRUST ME. #it's a fascinating dynamic. #Nate haters don’t interact this is coming from a place of love for two flawed imperfect characters <3

This is pretty dumb and can easily be debunked cus I’m sure they already have someone as Vanessa/Vanny. But because Nate is pretty much confirmed to be at least some what involved in RE’s last installment of the FNAF The Musical series, it’s a hell of a thought to be like…..ay yo what if FNAF Musical!Nate somehow becomes Vanny….

And now I’m imagining Nate as Vanny….please send help.

HEAR ME OUT:

Paid in Exposure -> The Wrecked and the Worried -> Branded -> Phantom

The Nathan Sharp to Phantom pipeline

#we dont psychoanalyze Nathan here (because thats fucking weird and disrespectful) BUT we can create a backstory for his egos #and nobody talks about Phantom as an ego like they talk about Natemare and its a damn shame #anyway im a firm believer that Phantom started out human as Nathan but became the Phantom when he sold his soul to the music industry #thats MY story and im sticking to it #nate posting #natewantstobattle #phantom nwtb #branded nwtb #paid in exposure nwtb #the wrecked and the worried nwtb #nwtb #nwtb egos

My honest reaction when it comes to the angst in the NWTB fandom:

#nwtb #nwtb egos #please I need my sillies to be happy for once omg #Nate and the egos please I need them to be okay #I’ll pay for their therapy #natewantstobattle #angst

I know that you don't want to show Wade's face before weapon X but one of my mutuals said "he would just look like Yung Gravy but with short hair" and I've been laughing my ass off for 5 minutes

i have never heard of yung gravy before but the vibes are utterly immaculate

i do think it's founded in some sense unfortunately because two "healed" wades radiate approximations of this vibe (but with much more butch dad energy)

deadpool's secret wars & uncanny avengers (2016)

#something to think about #i wonder what 9319 wade wilson would look like right now if didn't have all his scars.. how would he present... how would he style his hair #things to think about #you'll never find out #sci talks comics #i'm also never not thinking about how even in a memory wipe situation nate still has wade on speeddial #soulmates your honor #i know they had a big butch daddy love affair even in their memory wiped alter egos i just know it

Rowan | NAYKT

Android | EnDroid robot | 13 years since activation

Abilities

Above average stamina, above average strength, incredibly complex emotional processing power

NAYKT Character Facts

Rowan is an N5 model android manufactured by EnDroid as part of a contract with a company that had a plan to replace several problematic low level employees over the course of a few years.

Among his duties, Rowan was a part of the mail room and a general runner for the humans, following the instructions of at least 20 different (mostly ungrateful) humans everyday.

One day Rowan chose to leave, walked out the door unchallenged as everyone assumed he was fulfilling the order of someone and he never went back.

Since EnDroids are so hyper-realistic, it's impossible to tell Rowan isn't human unless he becomes damaged. It's how he got a job, an apartment, and went undetected by EnDroid for so long.

Writer's fave fact

Part of why Rowan left was hearing stories about kids going missing at Freddy Fazbear's and the imminent threat of the animatronics being deactivated. Given their desperation for a night guard, no one questioned his lack of last name, or any work history and he worked with the animatronics (and the children) to trap William Afton in the Golden Bonnie Springtrap suit.

I’m so happy that Nate and Jade went on a date! I’ve been hoping that they would since they introduced her, like the vibes are there and I think their personalities complement each other really well

#ted lasso #nate shelley #not enough people are talking about this #I think she could keep his ego in line and he could soften her up a bit like they did in the date scene #they’re like the thing with the cat and dog personalities

Whumptober Day 5: Ransom Video

DSMP Superhero AU  Phoenix Rising

Summary:  “Are we live?  Yep, we are!  Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen of L’Manburg. You probably already know me and my brother but let me introduce myself.  I’m Nightmare.  But let’s actually move on to the star of the show!”

TW: Kidnapping, Ransom Video, Nonconsensual Drug Use

Part One Here

Part Three Here

Part Four Here

Nightmare takes the camera and strolls through the hallway and towards a door leading to the basement.  When Nightmare gets to the bottom of the stairs and turns the camera to the center.

“Aw! Doesn’t he look so cute!  Already trying to escape Tommy?  But we haven’t even started on why you’re here yet!”

It has been about a week since the sixteen year old Thomas Theseus Innes Watson has been reported missing.  Reports say that a man had come to pick up Thomas from school that was not his father or brothers.  However, since Thomas stated and showed that he knew the man the school allowed the man to take Thomas with him.  Since then no one has seen Thomas.  The last time anyone saw him was last Friday.  If you have any information please call the hotline.

The news drone on and on about some more boring stuff.  Oh, so they finally noticed that their little boy had gone missing?  Well, time to put the Superhero Family out of their misery.  Oh this was going to be fun!  Let’s what the Crow Father, the Blade and Ghostbur truly value.  Their so-called family that they kept on saying and repeating from time to time but had no problem in ignoring their own family?  Or the lives of faceless and nameless people that only see them as the heroes when they need a hero?

He went to the laptop and checked to make sure everything was ready.  The New Channel was still going on and it was live!  Perfect!  He then hit the button.

The screen went black and white and with nothing but TV Snow for a few minutes than it came back.  One side of the screen was the L’Manburg News Channel and the other side of the screen was the live footage that he presented.

“Are we live?  Yep, we are!”  He then took the camera that was broadcasting the event and turned to him.  The News Anchors covered their mouths when they saw who it was.

  “Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen of L’Manburg.  You probably already know who me and my brother are but let me introduce myself anyway.  I’m Nightmare.  But let’s actually move on to the actual star of the tonight’s show!”

Nightmare takes the camera and strolls through the hallway and towards a door leading to the basement.  Nightmare starts going down the wooden stairs and just starts monologuing the entire time.  About how easy it was to get the kid’s trust.  How easy it was to just lure him away.  How easy it was to just get him to trust him and his brother because of how lonely the kid was.  The kids' family were Superheroes though he made sure not to say what their names were and how they were so dedicated in saving so many lives but chose to ignore their youngest son.

When Nightmare made it to the bottom of the steps, he panned the camera to the “Star of the Show.”  Thomas Theseus Watson.  The kid had his arms free and was trying to get the ropes off his legs.

“Aw! Doesn’t he look so cute!  Already trying to escape Tommy?  But we haven’t even started on why you’re here yet!”

Tommy looked up and gave Nightmare his best intimidation of his brother’s the Blade, death glare.  “You fucking tricked me!  You said that we were friends!  I trusted you!  You - you took me to see your shop and everything!”

“Aw, don’t be like Tommy!  Of course we’re friends!”

“Bullshit!  Friends don’t kidnap them and shove in the basement for days on end!”

“Oh Tommy!  It isn’t like that!  Look, we both know how neglectful your so-called family are!  I just decided to show you how much they truly don’t care about you!”

“That’s not true!  They care about me!  They’re just - really busy is all!”

“Tommy, if that was true then you wouldn’t have summoned me.  You wouldn’t have summoned my brother.  We are attracted to those you call out to us.  Those who truly have a truly deep seeded wish that they want to come true.  You, Tommy, have truly called us.  I haven’t heard a call like that in so many centuries, it isn't funny!”

Tommy stilled at that.  It couldn’t be true!  No, he was just lying!  Trying to get under your skin!  “You’re lying!  I didn’t - I didn’t summon you!  You - you’re a fucking wrong’un is what you are!  Fucking godman dickhead that can’t get any women because you just go around kidnapping people!  What too afraid to face my family so you had to kidnap me?  Stalk me?!  What the absolute fuck!”

Nightmare just cracked a smile at this kid’s attempt at bravery.  He had to give it to the kid.  He had no fear in insulting his kidnapper like there was no tomorrow.

“Oh don’t worry, Tommy.  There’s an actual reason why I came down here.”  Tommy eye Nightmare.  He didn’t like where this was going.  “Oh, Tommy, you’re the Star of the Show!  We’re going to actually see what your family truly values.  Their youngest son/brother who’s got no powers and is completely human?  Or the lives of the faceless, nameless civilians of this city?”

“What are -what are - you going to do?”  Tommy stammered.

“Oh, you don’t need to worry about that, Tommy.”  Nightmare came over to Tommy and put his hand in front of Tommy’s face.  He then let his Sleep Mist do its trick.  Tommy slumped in his chair, completely passed out.

The next thing that the News Channel saw, when the segment went live again was.  Tommy Watson passed out in a coffin, both Nightmare and Phantom were standing over Tommy.  Then they closed the lid and lowered the coffin with the boy still inside.  Then Phantom took his cane banged on the ground and the dirt covered the coffin evenly.

Phantom then looked back at the camera.  “You have a choice, Heroes.   You have one hour.  You either save the lives of the worthless faceless, nameless civilians that have no problem in turning on you at the drop of hat?  Or the life of your youngest?  The one that has no powers and will grow up to be another nameless, faceless civilian while the rest of you have all the fame and glory.   The L’Manburg Graveyard or the City Park.  One has the life of your youngest and will be dead in less than an hour when the air runs out.  Or the people in the park where we hid a bomb.

Your choice, Heroes.”

The screen went black as the camera was turned off.  No doubt everyone was panicking.  Oh, this will be fun.  What would the Hero Family choose?  Their youngest brother and son?  Or the lives of the civilians that they swore to protect and literally put them first above all else.

SNL Season 49 15/20 episodes

And the backhalf of the Ramy episode let me down. 5/10 night... and it is probably one of the better episodes of this season. At least I will remember that Marcello immigrant dad sketch/monologue.

Bowen, Heidi, Ego, and Sarah are just being crushed by the SNL machine and people like Longfellow, Kenan, and Molly are getting scraps.

With 75% percent of the season done, my current Top5 of Season 49 of SNL:

Nate Bargatze

Timothee Chalamet

Adam Driver (and that is based 100% on his performance)

Sydney Sweeney (which was okay)

And I guess...Bad Bunny (which isn't a great episode, but there is no other SNL like it)

Anyone of these episodes (expect Nate's) can easily lose their spot with basic fun episode. I'm just tired of just okay to mediocre SNL. Show needs a reboot of some sort.
