y'all ever just sit there and go:

"damn, why do the men with long/longer hair almost always die/end up being full of red flags?"

the longer I live, the more this trend continues.

a few of our (possibly) late greats...

Eddie Munson (~1967-1986) :

Lovely man, fought the man, absolute f-ing icon (for the gays, the bis and the pans)

(IT 2017) Patrick Hockstetter (1974-1989) :

There is a list of things, I won't get into all of them, but somehow he's still a bicon.

Hunter Sylvester (???-???) :

Rage issues, unprocessed emotions, kinda not equal rights at first ngl, not a good friend. Still somehow slaying, fabulous hair; got a redemption arc. I can't tell if he's bi, gay, or an incredible ally but go for it dude. You're fabulous and I'm glad they at least TRIED to have you be better than you were at the start! Thank you for not remaining a dick!

Loki Laufeyson (???-???) :

I don't know how to define this, he's so chaotic but not in like a purely bad way? He's a trickster god, of course he's gonna cause problems. but then oops! then haha sike I'm not dead then oops, wait I'm actually dead then oops, I'm in a timetravel super secret megacorp now! as a prisoner! oooh! (I never finished watching Loki so that might be wrong, but yeah, man's got a rollercoaster)

edit:

Ryan "Trick" Tribecky (???-???) :

not really any overt red flags other than his early exposure to mature things and his drug usage/access. and he doesn't die, he's just.. y'know, it's him (I'm watching the episode as I write this so-- I can't exactly truly fully judge him yet)

edit:

Nah he don't belong on this list, screw the main girl's mom, man.

edit:

PLEASE-- like, honey- you didn't ask to be recorded while doing it with the girl you've LIKELY had a crush on for years and now oopsie she's gone! thanks jackass helicopter mom!

It's just painful, like-- I want one long-haired dude who's fun, possibly chaotic but not a total douche and not dead/doesn't die--

please, just grant me one, my creative and powerful writing and casting gods! Just ONE!

The reason Goncharov was fun and worked well is because Tumblr didn’t plan for it, we just “yes and” it, everyone went with it and added to it with no planning while TikTok people with Zepotha are trying to recreate that by deciding to start a trend and tell people this movie existed, there isn’t even much more than “you look like this character” and sometimes people saying it was actually them.

I'm sure this has been said a million times already, but I just cannot get over people using the words "mommy" and "daddy" in an erotic context. It is just so viscerally and blatantly wrong and vile that it genuinely defies comprehension. These are the words that young children use to refer to their parents. They're what you (probably) called your parents as a kid, and if you're a parent they're (probably) the words your kids(s) use to refer to you. How can anyone use these words to mean "hot sexy fuckable older person who I want to dominate me sexually" without spontaneously combusting from the sheer intensity of their disgust?

What's the difference between this and calling an attractive younger person/sub "tiger" or "buddy" or "princess" or "sweetie pie" or "champ" or "cutie patootie"? I mean, that'd be the same thing, just in the opposite direction, right? Like how is it not immediately apparent to people that taking parent/child language and sexualizing it is still normalizing the ideas of incest and pedophilia, even if the words are only being used to refer to unrelated adults?

It genuinely scares me that this is something that's just normal now. It is genuinely scary that there are teenage girls calling men "daddy" in a sexual way, and that the word for hot dominant older man and the word for father are now the same word. Like it's difficult for me to even articulate myself and elaborate on this, because it's like trying to articulate and elaborate on why sexualizing anorexia is wrong or something, it is just so obviously and deeply fucked that words shouldn't even need to be said on the subject, and yet, apparently, to my horror, they do.

Imma be honest, at first I had NO idea that Law was 26 entire years old. I learned his official age in a comment on a Pinterest post, like, I was none the wiser.

You mean to tell me that this is a grown ass man?! ^

THIS?! ^ LIES

I admit that I can see it post time skip, especially in Punk Hazard and Zou. (He was just a twink in Dressrosa. A foolish twink.)

But THIS?!

NAW. When he showed up I guessed that he was like 18, 19, maybe 20. But 24?!?! Really?!?! I don’t have a problem with his age or anything I was just genuinely shocked!

But come on. This is not a grown ass man ^ This is a teenage dirtbag. Cue Wheezer guitar riff.

I COULDN’T HAVE BEEN THE ONLY ONE

His stoner fit fooled me! I know people complain about shipping Luffy and Law because of the age gap but like… dude, I seriously had no idea he was in his twenties 😭

I find it so amusing that this goofy emo dude is a full grown adult man. With full on medical expertise and everything. Love that for him.

Fact of the day, hands down.

How he would kiss you~ | Jk

The kiss would start off slow, with you two in any situation to which one innocent peck would make things become heated.

Each and everytime his lips would elope your bottom lip into his mouth, letting his teeth gently nub on it and pull back slightly until it would flop back down into place before the kiss got more intense. After the little lip bite he would make sure his top lip was in-between your lips, granting him better access to your bottom lip as he than began to deepen the kiss once his one hand found its way to the side of your face, cupping your cheek in a slighter rough manner.

Your tongue would naturally follow, making sure he got a pretty decent amount of the wet muscle, to which he would never complain and sometimes would even suck on your tongue ever so slightly. One in a while, though, he would make sure his tongue went into your mouth, exploring the place he desired to taste in a messy manner.

Messy manner? Oh this boy loved messy kisses. When the kiss would get sloppy after both of your jaws becoming sore and all, he would take this as the time to just work the tongue, stopping the kisses and just letting his tongue touch, play, & trail your lips or sometimes around your lips. "I'm just seeing," He would cover up his track everytime you asked why he did that, even though deep down you knew he had a spit kink and would do that to 'clean' your face from the comvined slober of the two of you, that may have traveled around your lips.

His hands would sometimes get sneaky when they weren't holding your face, and would sometimes go to your boobs---despite the cloth separating skin to skin contact---and would squeeze them in his big hangs, purposely trying to make you horny, and plu he just like boobs.

When you two would kiss during intercourse, he would kiss you slowly, not intense or rough, just patiently and passionately. No biting involved (surprisingly) he would just take things slow... [besides his hips that drove into you-]

When he prepped you with kisses to calm you down I feel like he would rest his hands on your shoulders and gently rub them while he kissed the corners of your lips, never really fully kissing you as you spoke about your problems.

I also feel that most times when he would cup your face while making out his hands would tug on your hair, trying out new preferences and seeing if you liked his actions by opening his eyes for a split second to see your pleasure eyes, even though they were closed the eyebrows told him everything.

He loved feeling your hands around his neck and in his hair. It was absolutely glory to him while you too kissed, or in general, really.

[Masterlist]

A little GIF to give general and physical representation (Sort of what I was imagining 🤷‍♀️😭🤣 except Jungkook would be more rough and dominanat.)

in regards to the constant dismissal of his aroace identity, i hate it when alastor 'fans' say and use the excuse: "he's fictional, he won't get offended."

like, you're right, but it can and will offend us.

when you see yourself being represented on screen, of course you'd feel enthusiastic about it — representation allows individuals to see themselves reflected in the media they consume, validating their identities and experiences. but when so many people take that representation and decide to disregard and discard it, it is so fucking frustrating. we finally have another character to be part of the tiny amount of representation we have, but then people don't even care about how much it means to us? like yeah, alastor won't get offended because he's not real, but it frustrates and annoys us. do you realize that it's also technically invalidating the aroace community? that you're invalidating our feelings? imagine feeling like you're finally being seen because your orientation is finally being represented in media, and people just decide to blatantly ignore, discard, and invalidate it.

media has such a powerful influence on real life, representation being a prevalent factor of it. there are numerous posts that dictate how people went to watch a movie/show or read a book just because a character depicts their identity in it — obviously, being represented is an incredibly uplifting and validating experience.

which is why seeing an aroace character in a popular show is so meaningful to us because we live in a world where romance and sex are literally everywhere and prioritized above all else. (and it's pretty obvious that alastor's on the repulsed end of the spectrum, but even if he wasn't, at least make an effort to acknowledge his sexuality instead of continuing to portray him as allo; aroace folks can be in relationships but it's not going to be the same thing with allos' experiences.)

any and every representation matters, but why does that seem to stop at people under the aroace spectrum? like y'all can't even let us appreciate the scraps of representation we have. we barely have any, so are we really that dramatic for being upset at how people easily disregard and dismiss our identities that are being depicted on screen just like that? is it truly wrong of us to want to defend and maintain the little representation we have?

#like imagine if i asked you ab your fav character and then i said i hated them and proceeded to insult them #wouldn't that irritate you even just a bit and maybe even come to their defense?#like why would you be offended when they're not even real lmaoo #they're fictional and won't get offended but if you love that character then YOU might feel offended and maybe even defend them #ok now take that situation and put it into this context #except it's much more meaningful bc it's about representation #just a random thought #i'm not against shipping him or finding him attractive (bc same LMAO) or the fanart btw #i just hate it when people use bs excuses to justify their obvious dismissal & indifference towards aro/ace rep #like at least acknowledge his identity :((#sorry for the long ass rant and if some parts don't make sense i'm not in the best mood rn lol #and i've been wanting to get this off my chest for a while #didn't know double standards were a thing when it came to representation....#but here we are #alastor #aroace alastor #aroace #asexual #aromantic #asexuality #aromanticism #arospec #aspec #alastor hazbin hotel #aromantic alastor #asexual alastor #hazbin hotel #hazbin hotel alastor #aroacespec #queer

i really love the idea of terms of endearment being food-themed in hobbit culture so hear me out

Bilbo referring to Thorin as his blueberry pie?? or literally anything with blueberry at this point, since, you know Thorin usually wears blue clothes, has blue eyes and is kind of associated with this beautiful dark blue colour

#this thought just suddenly appeared in my head and has been living there rent free ever since #i felt like i had to share with basically everyone #he’s just a silly blueberry pie #i’m having a hard time finishing the drawing i’m working on so random thoughts it is #headcanon #the hobbit #bagginshield #thorin oakenshield #bilbo baggins #rant #the fish is screaming into the void

"jude and cardan had a toxic relationsh-"

no actually, they did not. there were reasons for everything that happened and just because everyone is so quick to judge things these days doesn't mean it needs to happen to them. whilst in the first book there was some initial behaviours that do support the claim, there were reasons behind them and also this is how enemies to lovers works !! they BECOME lovers. there is such a thing called a redemption arc?? not to mention we get an apology from cardan for everything he has done. toxicity is not what was in their relationship - it was ferocity. The ferocity of their love.

So let's all please stop labelling everything to ever exist toxic and focus on the people who actually need support from their toxic partners / relationships

EDIT: I would just like to clarify that I meant all this for when jude and cardan were in an actual romantic relationship together! This is by no means condoning what happened at the beginning of the books as that was most definitely wrong. I DO NOT condone any form of toxic relationship. I was trying to point out that once they were in an actual romantic relationship then they were NOT toxic and this is what some people argue they were. Apologies for any misconceptions!

Not sure if anyone’s said this yet but now that we have Laterano events plural I’m fascinated by their (imo) very deliberate choice of protagonists, and there are almost a couple of layers of narrative going on there. I struggle a little figuring out how to get this into words but specifically I think they’re chosen to be people who can carry a narrative without contradicting the orthodox morals of the church. There’s a LOT of vaguely anti-authoritarian rambling below the cut so please kindly bear with me and my English major brain.

I can’t really start there though. One of the reasons this is so brain hurty is how deeply it’s woven into the storyline, so to start, I have to verbalize how Laterano and Arknights writing more generally is different from other, similar settings. Because like, I hear the words “morally negative church in a grimdark setting” and my brain immediately shuts off. Come on, that’s so far beyond low-hanging fruit, if you’ve seen any grimdark setting ever you know exactly what that looks like. And sure, it was fine the first two or three times you saw it, depending on your tolerance for that kinda thing, but it gets boring quick and even when it was new it was kinda uninteresting story-wise. “Religion is always fake because it inspires hope which means everyone who takes meaning from it is either a corrupt grifter or naive and misled” isn’t just edgy nonsense, it’s also basically useless as an actual critique. It tells you absolutely nothing except how to tune out a particular kind of story, and a story that tries to get you to hear less is doing its job wrong.

So, Arknights does something different. Instead of denying the premise of the church entirely, it actually takes it at its word. Laterano is, in almost every definition of the word, a paradise. It is basically unmatched in terms of actual quality of life, with its only competitors being the Durin cities and maybe Aegir, and is worlds apart from now much the rest of Terra sucks. More than that, though, the paradise is specifically tailored to the worldview of a religion with a strong central authority - when I say it takes it at its word, I mean the authoritarian bits too. Laterano is a city that lives in perfect order and peace because everyone follows the law perfectly and they all understand each other and never fight. Empathy is really important for this, as it allows for a believable amount of superhuman societal order. Laterano has very little crime, political drama, or quarrels in general. It’s the promises of a strict higher authority actually taken at face value: everyone follows the rules and that means they have effectively unfettered freedom, because they don’t want to break the rules and therefore they can do anything they want.

Laterano is specifically written to be a believable paradise in a setting that has none, so that when the story then turns around and criticizes that setting, it has significantly more weight. Even when the promises of paradise are taken at face value, there are still issues that cannot be addressed because the system is inherently flawed even in the imaginary scenario where it works. Even worse, the problems that poke holes in the imaginary perfect scenario are the same problems that they face in the real world, like “how do you deal with the interpretation of scriptures” and “hey there’s this racism thing I keep hearing about should we be worried about that or what”. Because of the way this imaginary perfect system works, we then look back on our real world in a new light and understand it a little better. It’s good critique.

Okay so how did we get here and what does this have to do with the protagonists? Well, this starts with Fiametta in Guide Ahead, because she’s a really weird protagonist. This is a cold take at this point but despite being the character on the front of the box, she has very little to actually do with the central conflict of the event. Most of the conflict is handled by Ezell first and Andoain second, and Fiametta mostly putters around putting holes in people until the finale where Andoain receives the answer he’s been looking for, he turns to explain it to the world, and he runs into the only person in the whole of Laterano who does not care about his motivations or his revelation. Her role, in other words, is to replace the climax of Andoain’s story with her own, and in doing so she makes it much harder to actually get a resolution and a meaning out of the story (this should not be taken as a criticism of her character, let me cook). Guide Ahead’s ending is hazy, with only small piecemeal resolutions to its conflicts, and for the longest time that was just the way the event was written and it stood on its own.

But now, Hortus de Escapismo is out and the monkey brain see patterns. Specifically, with the choice of protagonists. Because Executor is definitely different from Fiametta as a protagonist, but there’s one particularly important connection between the two, and that’s that as I mentioned in the beginning, they allow for stories don’t contradict orthodox morality. Fiametta we went over, as she’s uninterested in any of Andoain’s morality and just wants him dead. Executor, though, is purely focused on his mission and views the world through that lens. He only wants to achieve his objective, and while helping the needy is in line with the stated objectives of the church and he does do so when able, it’s secondary to his assigned task. He does change as he gets further into the story, and we’re not gonna ignore that, but we’ll be back to it later. What I mean is more that he is designed as a person who is able to lead a story that doesn’t contradict with the morals of Laterano. He sees the injustice and suffering around him, but that’s not his job, so he doesn’t need to solve it to have a complete story with a happy ending.

This is where it really gets complicated, so I apologize if I don’t explain this very well. I see this as us dealing with multiple layers of fiction: the events of the story, the perspective of the church, and our perspective as readers. Back to the first point - authoritarian institutions almost always use stories to sell people on their brand of order. Simple stories, simple enough that even calling them myths seems like overselling it a little, your “Saint George slays a dragon” kinda thing. This is the point of the second layer, the perspective of the church. I don’t really have an in-world justification for this layer - maybe you could make the argument that it has to do with Law’s perspective on things, but I don’t totally buy that - I think it’s more in a weird narrative transition space for people who don’t read very carefully. Regardless, Fiametta and Executor’s shared indifference to the questionable circumstances surrounding them is designed to let them tell a story to prop up the existing order. Their protagonist status and their missions are specifically constructed to allow them to ignore the suffering around them, and as such ignore the larger questions that might poke holes in the larger order. They’re both playing out the story of Saint George, where they go and find a bad guy and kill them and that’s all there is to it. The story is designed and told specifically for that “that’s all there is to it”.

But, as we said earlier, this is a good critique, and as such it intentionally undercuts this story with the third layer: what we actually see as readers. We are shown the suffering and the injustice, and then get to see our protagonists ignoring that to pursue their goals. This is what gives Guide Ahead’s ending its unique texture, which sets it apart from every other event with a vaguely unresolved ending. We have seen the actual issues with Laterano, and also watched our protagonist explicitly ignore them in favor of her own story. It’s unsatisfying in a way that only really makes sense to me if we as the readers have an understanding of intentional authorship. Whether it be Yvangelista XI or Law or The Actual Real Life Pope, there are issues here that we want to see a resolution to but people are choosing not to address them. Again, it’s good critique. Not only does it push the reader to unpack and understand the actual real-world technique, but it also helps blunt it. You have just seen a plot and protagonist ring uncharacteristically hollow. You then look around to see why that is, and you realize there are many things that should have been resolved that weren’t. The next time you see a story resolve with that same hollow-ness, you know where to look. Surprise! Harry Potter was propaganda the whole time. It’s okay, it was never good, you were just twelve.

I guess the last thing is where we go from here, because Executor’s story breaks this mold somewhat. In Hortus de Escapismo, he has to deal with a mission that isn’t actually bounded by his normal rules, and because of that he actually does have leeway to help the people around him. He starts as someone who is totally mission-focused, but by the end of the event he’s done a total 180 and is blocking Oren’s attack, which makes the mission harder but helps the non-mission-critical civilians of the monastery. He breaks from the rigid thinking of “kill the bad guy and that’s all there is do it”, and gives his attention to the people he isn’t supposed to see. I think this is an indication of the direction we’re going to be headed in the future with Laterano events. The events aren’t going to get better - they’re going to keep being just as morally murky and complicated as in the past - but the characters are going to get better at handling it, and when they do, they’re going to actually start to change things for the better.

Goddamn that was a lot of writing for 1 AM. I still have a. Lot of thoughts on this event with stuff like empathy and Lemuen and Federico being an autistic icon(my beloved) but I’m going to leave things there, I think, because if I write for any longer my phone is going to crash when I try to post this. Anyway if you actually made it to the end thanks for listening to me rambling and I hope that made sense. Cheers.

Just watched a youtube video where a bubbly young woman discussed an indescribably fucked up hentai manga about a teenage girl getting forced into prostitution and raped by her father, and otherwise tortured and violated in ways I will not describe here, as though it was just some run of the mill piece of media, and treated it like it had some kind of profound literary value because sometimes real girls go through those kinds of experiences, while completely ignoring the fact that it was hentai created specifically for sick men to jerk off to and written by one such sick man. And most of the comments also failed to acknowledge the nature of this work, and were just things along the lines of, "yep, life sure can be unfortunate for some people that is true." I just. What is happening to these girls? Like I truly don't understand how you can get to a place mentally where all you have to say about something like this is that it's "dark" and the characters are "bad people" like girl what you read should be illegal it is literally underage torture porn with a plot that serves the sole function of providing context that makes the porn parts as depraved as possible, and you think it was an enjoyable read that had important things to say about the female experience?? The author was not trying to earnestly depict the horrors of girlhood in order to get people to contemplate the significance of such atrocities and compel them to do something to help prevent them, he was trying to get himself and men like him off to the rape and misery of a teenager! This is a level of pornbrained internalized misogyny combined with poor media literacy that I previously did not think possible. My heart weeps for this girl and for other young women like her who are so numb to this kind of visceral depravity that they don't even register it as anything other than a sad story.
