pov you are any adult within five minutes of meeting the specialest little princess in the world

#fma #may chang #mei chang #I had to include the one where she's clinging to scar like a barnacle #AND the one where he's pointing at her #it's my favorite image #I unfortunately had to crop out the bit that says ''itty bitty!'' #i spent way longer on this one than the ling one lksjdfkljsdf #it had to be PERFECT #nothing but the best for MY daughter #saw someone call her annoying earlier today and I felt irate #so i had to finish this instead of doing my readings #fma posting

She sits down beside him, drawing her knees up to her chest. She’s wearing a yellow polka-dotted dress, white and green striped tights, and bright yellow shoes. He has no idea what her costume’s supposed to be.

“So, who are you supposed to be tonight?”

Chrissy blushes, tugging on the hem of her dress.

“It’s embarrassing but, um, Lemon Meringue?” she says. Steve gives her a blank look. “Like the doll. My little sister’s going as Strawberry Shortcake and she wanted us to match. I managed to get away without the hat, though, so. Yay.”

She does a halfhearted little fist pump and Steve snorts.

Chrissy’s Halloween costume from my fic Dear Cassandra

I feel Andy is the kind of person who doesn't seek to interact with children, but they go to him spontaneously.

Like, he has no idea of how to talk with a kid, but they like him and he has no explanation for that.

And then Kyle mocks him like " You are good with children! " and he is like ". No i'm not! They just follow me and tell me stuff I never asked and try to invite me into their games."

#andy barclay #andy barclay headcanon #( this also happens to me #kids follow me for no damn reason #my irl best friend's little nephew who never bonds with any of her other friends even when they try #was asking me to play football with him five minutes after meeting me #every adult in that party was shocked #i go shopping with my mom and the little daughter of the store attendant proceeds to start showing me all her toys #kids seem to like me and i do literally nothing to make them like me #I'm just existing nearby and they suddenly want to befriend me )

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuu-

Kinda rambly but im getting tired of tragic fathers who lost a young daughter. It’s almost always a young daughter; someone who represents innocence and the father’s capacity to love, and is at an age were the kid sees the dad as everything.

Nothing against the trope itself, but how about a story in which the kid HAS a character beyond being the dad’s tragic figure. Gimme a story about a teen who reached an age that made them realize that the way they see the world and the way their dad sees the world is different. Gimme a story in which the dad and kid get into arguments about their views and ideas. Gimme a story in which, even after all of that, the dad still mourns the kid the same way he does in the clichè because when all is said and done that is still HIS kid and maybe he shouldnt have wasted so much time arguing, and maybe they should’ve learned to communicate despite having different worldviews, and maybe he shouldve been more aware of how much he loves them while they were alive, and maybe it shouldn’t have taken literal death for him to realize that he shouldnt have been so stubborn, that he should’ve accepted that his kid is a person individually from him

I dunno, just not make the dead kid an idea rather than a layered character

#my deck of cards #writing #there’s also smth to be said about young GIRLS being a symbol of innocence #and yknow…female characters being nothing but motivation or decoration to male characters #i wrote this because of #miguel o’hara #in the spiderverse movie #but i think it’s been bothering me for longer #also #the last of us #but that just opens the can of worms that is ‘father figure loses innocent daughter and becomes gruff but another young girl will soften #his heart’ and yada yada yada #or maybe the male character is not a dad but he is a loner #and the young girl develops him #im not trying to mesh tlou with Miguel’s story bc it’s really good about developing both characters and i think it’s the tripe at its BEST #but it’s still a trope that deserves analyzing yanno?

i sit and stew on a post so potent about the victim blaming that goes on in wider fandom headcanons about these characters that goes unnoticed because it's never overt or even intentional and i eat my hands because it's the jumpscare games for kids with their parents' credit cards.

#oh boy six a.m.! ( ooc ) #|| the shortest form of the post is that. #|| people would rather will be insane and believe he's doing his best for those kids. #|| than entertain the possibility that he was an angry man like so many angry men. #|| and when you tip that domino. it does not stop falling. #|| if he loved and supported his kids why did michael act out that way? was it just his fault? #|| and i say this as someone who also takes mike to task for the bullying and fratricide but like. #|| to paint a picture of the perfect afton house. to say those three kids were consistently loved and treated well. #|| is to say what happened to them was pure happenstance. #|| which leaves a sour taste in my mouth and makes me kinda nauseous. #|| better that michael is just a bully and elizabeth was beloved and what happened to her was an accident. #|| and not a result of neglect and endangerment. #|| it feels like rolling a rock uphill to go into the tags every time and see how william was a loving parent. #|| and it also denies the reality that. your parent can love you and abuse you. it happens so often. #|| sometimes a parent will think they're doing what's best for you and they'll hold you dear in their heart. #|| and the physical manifestation of that love is nevertheless deeply harmful. #|| if will must be out of touch with reality why isn't it the idea that he did nothing wrong with his kids when that isn't at all true. #|| three dead kids all at his facilities but it's because michael was a bully elizabeth didn't listen and ennard just Did That. #|| not because evan had his party at a place he hated. or william brought his daughter to the premiere of his child killing machine. #|| gwuhhhh bluhhh GEHHHHHHHH. AAAAAAAAAAA. #negativity ///

Some thoughts on the choice of Carina Smyth's first name

Ngl even though there are many things I don't like about DMTNT, I think that Carina is like one of the best names that could be chosen for Barbossa's daughter. It sounds like a pretty regular name at first, but I think the backstory is what makes it actually a really great choice.

"Carina" is the name of a star constellation which is also known as "keel of the ship". In the german dub of the movie this is actually made more obvious, as Carina says that she's named after said star constellation, whereas in the original she says the the brightest star in the north (which is part of the constellation) gave her her name. Being named after a star constellation which resembles a ship (or at least a part thereof), her name is connected to both the stars and the sea, two focal points in Barbossa's life as a pirate and as a captain. He's a man of the sea and an exceptional navigator, and I think it's safe to assume that he has a very good knowledge of astronomy, particularly for navigational purposes. As he said himself, he knows which stars to follow home.

I like to think that Barbossa consciously chose his daughter's name because of its meaning. However, we unfortunately don't know under which conditions it was chosen, since we simply don't have enough information about his and Margaret Smyth's relationship. How many months before the birth did he learn that he was going to be a father? Were he and Margaret able to prepare for the changes in their lives that might come with having a child, did they make any plans for the future? Did they think up names together, and he suggested Carina, should they have a daughter? Or did Hector just return to land one day to learn his partner had died while he was at sea, and left him a child, and he had to come up with a name on the spot and the first thing that came to his mind were the star constellations?

I kind of doubt that we will get any canonical answers to those questions, so they are left to the realm of headcanons. I personally like to imagine that Barbossa chose the name carefully, and because of what it meant to him personally. Even though he kind of said in the movie that he never wanted his daughter to be associated with pirates (which happens to include himself), I think as her father he still wanted to make at least one meaningful impact on her life, which happened to be the choice of her name. Maybe also, in that way he would never forget her, since whenever he observed the sky and saw the star constellation Carina, he would also think of his daughter.

#tbh the actual reason I wrote this is bc I am struggling to come up with a name for a barbossa x oc fanchild #but nothing feels quite perfect and I ended up thinking too much about it #and came to the conclusion it's because his canon daughter's name already has the best fitting backstory (and a very beautiful one at that) #anyway these are just random ramblings and idk if any of this makes sense or is complete garbage I just thought 'why not share my brainrot' #also I kinda got carried away with the paragraph about Margaret's and Hector's relationship oops haha #pirates of the caribbean #potc #potc 5 #dead men tell no tales #dmtnt #headcanons #barbossa #hector barbossa #captain barbossa #carina smyth #carina barbossa #selniasoriginal #ramblings

installed a mod to increase the chances of wild magic surge along with a mod that expands the table to like 100 possible effects. immediately got an effect that gave gideon clown makeup. it hasn't come off after a long rest. can't even be mad because this is something that would happen to him

#maybe i should post about empty nest exorcist before i start posting about the au dnd version of gideon. well . #he's like if reigen was chinese american and in his 30s and could actually see ghosts and instead of exploiting the labor of a #middle schooler he was boy best friends with a single dad and getting cyberbullied by that dad's college freshman daughter. #so basically nothing like reigen. but you understand what i mean #the fact i can't go on nexus and give my character a really shitty mullet what's even the point of modding. frankly. #gideon

#Gerri Kellman #Roman Roy #Coming in all brash and joking about her 'tiny name' and asking abt her daughters #when he's really actually worried he wasn't good enough for her #and she was about to realize it and worry she'd tethered herself to him. #He not only felt worried about that but he also went ahead and voiced his fears to her. #He would NEVER be that vulnerable with anyone else #and the trust and faith goes both ways -- I love how later in the episode #she leveled with him that he and his siblings could actually bring Logan down even though it would NOT be in her best interests #Succession #my gifs #I also obviously love the totally necessary tongue thing -- he's just worried and serious and lost in serious thought #nothing to do with gazing at her of COURSE :D #I love them so much. I miss them SO MUCH! #I can't get over the fantastic finale. The amazing door it left amazingly WIDE OPEN for anything and everything to happen down the road. #They will get their happy ending. She will rescue him. He will believe she's doing it because she wants to #and he will let her and he will be rescued #and she will get all the drawn-out groveling and apologizing she more than deserves from him #and I don't think there's ever been a couple better suited to be together. <3 #also can anyone with serious giffing prowess do these gifs properly please PLEASE and thank you? #the gifsets people make using Photoshop are GORGEOUS #uploading videos to a site will never reach that level.

My parents did NOT like me 💀

#personal #vent #and now I will stop oversharing #but its so genuinely sad to me #even my grandma asked why my parents didn't appreciate how good they have it because we're like.. #pretty decent kids. we don't ask for a lot. we don't expect a lot. we try our best where and when we can #we did well in school and BOTH have ambitions in life that were completely ruined and wasted from a childhood #of living in a broken home and being verbally beat down into a grain of salt and made to feel like nothing #no wonder I always view things as a competition half the time because my own DAD saw me as a competitor against him #why are you calling your daughter a dumb bitch and telling her you had way more friends and fun than I did #like?? okay??? #are you having fun now? acting like I'm not your own flesh and blood and instead someone to be better than? #....... #I ranted in the tags iMSORRY #or no. i am not. view my uncomfortable oversharing and pain
