#shut up birdy

[queenkinqs]

people love to talk about invincible for it's over the top gore and violence, but i really do think the show's writing is at it's best when it's just two people have a conversation

#LIKE UGH #this scene + 'you dad. i'd still have you' are probably my two fave scenes in the entire show like WOWW #the casualness...the familiarity.....the intimacy........like wow #you can tell just how much rex and eve care for each other despite the fact that rex has hurt eve so deeply #and you can tell how much rex regrets hurting eve just based on how he talks about all of the stuff that eve went through on her own #and how rex was given the opportunity to grow and change because of her LIKE!!!!! #also all the references to the rex splode prequel comic...rex hiding in her room for a year...eve showing rex her family portrait #(which didnt happen in the comic so i am assuming their gonna add it to their eventual adaptation of the comic plz) #AND EVE my beautiful princess who deserves the world and then some #atom eve #rex splode #invincible #shut up birdy #that one oomf who doesnt play abt rex and eve

ok so I put this in another post's tags but I wanted it to be in a more coherent post form also:

out of context peg and birdie look like the ideal soft butch/princess femme couple and i kind of love the implications of that. i'm aware it's toxic but also their dynamic is so interesting to me like. peg knows birdie is an entitled 'rich bitch', and yet she still works for her and has for a decade, there's some begrudging affection there and it's so important to the depth of peg's character. like she's reached a point where she's comfortable enough to say 'no' to birdie (who has probably not been told that often after she'd gotten rich) and also for birdie to cling onto her and for them to have silent conversations

like yes. peg is not as detestable or as privileged a person as the shitheads, but she is so clearly NOT a victim and i love the narrative for framing her in that way. she could definitely have quit her job and work for a less morally grey and less privileged, politically apathetic person, but she doesn't because assumably the benefit and profit outweighs whatever she has to sacrifice to continue working for birdie, whether it be her morals or her perspective etc etc.

(the same is said for whiskey with her contributing to duke's agenda of meninism. which she is shown to be smart enough not to agree with, and explicitly doesn't agree with -- and yet she stays with duke because it DOES help her career -- she ADMITS that)

BOTH of them actively benefit from discount elon musks' system of nepotism and his golden titties, and they know that. you'll notice that neither of them volunteered to back helen until someone else spoke up first -- someone a little higher up on the food chain. ESPECIALLY peg -- because even though she may idolise helen/andi, she won't back her if it means her loosing her profit (making it all the more important that it WAS birdie who ended up speaking up first).

but ANYWAYS, speaking of birdie -- since i haven't seen a lot of people doing that, kind of disregarding her as a ditzy, dumb blonde (which the same pushing aside can be said of whiskey) -- she is so attached to peg in a way that i don't even think she understands. when she needs clarification, she asks peg. when she wants to hang on to someone? peg. she is absolutely DISTRAUGHT by the idea that peg would leave her and it sounds like she would do anything to keep peg in her employ, making the idea of her paying peg more and more make sense, especially with that maybe being the reason peg stays and has stayed for so long.

anyways tldr: i find their relationship incredibly fascinating and i would LOVE for people to develop it further than surface level in fic (or maybe i have to :/) -- especially because there's so much history and baggage and levels and just So Much to work through which they can only do together and with deep personal character growth.

#i have a lot of thoughts about them ok?? #peg my beloved #peg glass onion #birdie jay #whiskey glass onion #knives out #benoit blanc mysteries #glass onion #films #character analysis #zay speaks #shut up kiki

Hi hello I see you hatoful boyfriend posting and would love to hear your favorite wild thing about that game (I have only ever seen people stream it and know very little and love hearing the wild bits)

oh jeez. ok. i hope you're ready for a wild ride. Hatoful Boyfriend spoilers under the cut, as well as some.... screenshots

im a depraved little freak so im a sucker for the True Ending. Prior to the True Ending, its a (fairly) normal dating sim But With Birds, including school festivals, class hikes, and Legumentine's Day (where you can buy seeds for the birdie of your affections). in the true ending, the player character is straight up killed halfway through the school year and the POV flips to the boyfriend birds trying to solve the murder in one of the wildest tonal shifts i have ever seen in video games.

while this is going on, the bird school goes into lockdown because the Player Character was the only human at bird school and the humans see her death as a threat (there's this whole thing about the bird/human war that only just ended) (the birds won). listen. listen. You, The Player Character, were Dismembered, and your body parts scattered through the school. In A Bird Dating Simulator. its such a wild left turn from the rest of the game which was fairly normal, as far as the game could be. the boyfriend birds are stalked through the locked down school by a bleeding scarecrow monster.

Apart from the True Ending, which takes about 4x as long to complete as any of the other routes, the other routes are... pretty wild in their own right. here's some screenshots from the normal routes.

and aside from THESE, just... the sheer amount of worldbuilding that went into Hatoful Boyfriend. On the surface it seems like a goofy dating sim (and to a degree, it is!! there are some genuinely cute moments!!) but just under the surface is a story about a bird flu vaccine gone wrong, birds gaining sapience, a war (that, again, the humans lost), tensions between the species, war crimes... its insane how much detail there is about a silly game about going to Bird School, Which Is For Birds.

there is also a lady birdie who rides a motorcycle. The motorcycle is not bird-sized. she also drives at 2 miles per hour because she takes road safety extremely seriously. im sorry if this is incoherent but thats just how this game is. it's 99 cents on Steam right now. im begging you all to purchase it and see what i mean

#lindsey shut up #an ask? wtf #probsnothawkeye #hatoful boyfriend #please. please. this game is a fever dream and i cannot recommend it highly enough #part silly billy birdy dating simulator. part psychological horror. part gut wrenching tragedy tale. #there’s even pudding.

i should not be awake. but alas…

#birdie rambles #i’m so sleepy :(( #but my brain won’t shut up !! #i keep going over all of the things i need to do in the next few days #i need to buy last minute presents and wrap them. then get stuff for the food i’m making and then make the food #and clean #i’m gonna be so tired lol

Hmmm. So, Keigo "dealt with all traces of Jin's body/blood " and personally cleaned up the crime scene at Gunga....

During Hawks vs Jin, Jin talks at length about Himiko's hankie, what it means to him, and how it both represents her kindness and why he simply can't abandon the League of Villains-- which Hawks completely brushes aside, at the time......

Jin's final clone desperately attempts to return a cloned!hankie to Himiko, but it tragically melts away as he dies....

The real hankie..... just so happens to fall right next to Jin's body, and right next to a big ass blood stain, seemingly forgotten.

#theory postan #do u guys see the vision #mha spoilers #''but what about dabi's flames--'' what ABOUT dabi's flames 😤 #maybe this is just my fanfiction brain kicking into overdrive but my policy is to keep hoping for narrative payoff until it kills me #but seriously it does feel like there's too much foreshadowing to be a coincidence and reading/rereading mha front to back-- #--makes it obv how airtight the themes are. Himiko actually dying would be a permanent stain on those themes. #anyway #Hawks: ''I'll always lend a hand to anyone who tries to change for the better!'' k time to put up or shut up birdie! (/affectionate)

(folds hands together) ideal sundrift fic OR platonic driftrav fic: go

i am physically incapable of picking between either of these options. you dangle my favorite amica pair and conjunx pair in front of me, and you're laughing

this got a little long so boom, read more;

for sundrift, i want to see them YEARN. these two mfs have both done awful things in the name of ending the war (drift wiping out sunstreaker's squad on dabola and general level of viciousness, sunstreaker teaming up with starscream to kill megatron, get the bots off earth, and kill all the humans). both of their actions put each other in direct harms way, but it also ties a similarity between them as the "ones who went too far". drift's past as a decepticon and sunny's betrayal of the autobots has left a permanent mark on both of their reputations, and i want to see the effects of it! i want to see the very thing they bond over- the shared sense of disconnection amongst the autobots- be the same thing that makes them both hesitate to take that next step with each other! i want to see their guilt, their attempts to make amends, even if they fail! especially if they fail!

just. slow burn into friendship and into just barely reaching the point of just maybe accepting that they have romantic feelings for one another, and... then the overlord arc happens. drift takes the blame for what happens, his reputation is ripped to pieces, and he's forced to leave the lost light. i Want to See sunstreaker's POV of that. i wanna know what he felt when drift's badge was taken from him and he was banished, not knowing what was really going on behind the scenes.

buuut that's more long-term fic stuff. for shorter, simpler stuff? need these mfs to just sit down and talk about their emotions. about themselves, about each other, about the other autobots. need them to talk about the loneliness that comes with their situation, despite being on a ship surrounded by people who would of been their friends, in other circumstances. i want to see them fumble their interactions with each other over and over again until they finally get it almost-right.

for drift and ravage??? god. there's so much. i want to see them gentle with each other but angry at the world. i want to see ravage defending drift and drift being the haven ravage can go to when he needs it. since they've known each other so long in my hc and their lives are so entertwined, there is just. so much to do with them. since beastformer drift is on the brain rn, ig the ideal fic would be rav guiding drift back into accepting his beastmode again after going years trying to push it away. sort of "this is a part of you, a part of us, and nothing can take that away". but also i want angry ravage! so many thoughts. so little brainpower to word them.

[jenhoneys]

you can't convince me that birdie isn't attracted to peg even just a little bit like -- when miles is like 'you have to consider what you know about each other to figure out the mystery blah blah' peg looks and birdie and birdie LITERALLY LOOKS HER UP AND DOWN AND RAISES HER EYEBROWS their relationship is so fascinating to me i need someone to write about it or i will

Moved a very big and very heavy professional display case back against the wall all by myself. Definitely going to be feeling it tomorrow but I don't care. This has been bugging me for a while and once I emptied it of the random stuff stored in it it wasn't too hard to wiggle it slowly into place. Started filling it with some of my grandma's and mine old Star Wars figures, though now I have to decide if it's better to keep them in their packages or open them to save space. I see a lot of ebay research coming in the future. Did find some interesting things though.

I love how dramatic the Revenge of the Sith packaging is. I can almost hear them yelling at me.

#birdy tries to be a good adult #it's already too hot to keep going today but i might try to empty a few more boxes before i call it quits #emptied seven boxes today and got a few more things ready to donate #looking at some of these figures i can hear my grandma talking as we checked what we had on her lists #i loved those days when it was just us running errands and toy collecting #my mom thought we were crazy and maybe she was right but we had so much fun #and my grandpa complained like crazy but always shut up when my grandma pointed out just how much useless crap he brought home #i know a lot of its gone missing over the years and some got destroyed when the roof leaked #someday I'll inventory it all for insurance reasons and just to see that still exists

[birdietrait]

kinda want to start a legacy challenge but i also want to finish writing the one i started ages ago...but i also want to keep playing with mitchell and maisie....but i also want to keep messing around in blender

#birdie rambles #why am i like this KJKDJK #someone needs to bonk me on the head and tell me to shut up and focus on one thing at a time

[birdybirdnerd]

Rereading somewhere else for reasons and purposes and laughing at an early authors note talking abt estimating there ti be 23-25 chapters, maybe 27.

Baby...

There's gonna be 40
