Any ship w jiang cheng that ends happily I will immediately enjoy bc I identify so.closely with him

My special guy

#jiang cheng #i also see a bunch of thoughts on how hes JUST a bitter man that complains #like yes #he is #but hes also so much more than that #as someone who has consumed all but the og novel #i dont think certain aspects align with a “bitter #complaining man who was born privelaged“ #and the people that like jc were implied to not understand media literacy #every character in the series had severe faults #as someone who consumed all of the different media pieces but the og novel #so maybe im biased #the story has a LOT of unreliable narrators #and we only see from a watchers pov #we dont hear every person's thoughts consistently #i just hate seeing JC reduced to angry man #you dont keep a servants weapon just because #especially if you didnt care about him even a little bit #you dont risk your life for someone you dont care about #no matter how twisted that care mat be

[milquetoad]

of the many injustices put forth toward the show by fans i think the most overall damaging and telling of a complete lack of critical viewership is the idea that sam riegel builds his characters with nothing more than the bit in mind. like you are only telling on yourself if you think characters like scanlan shorthalt and veth brennato are one-dimensional and depthless

#if im being exTREMEly generous i can maybe understand this view of scanlan if you started c1 and then gave up 30 episodes later #he played the long game with him more than any other and a lot of his growth could be looked at as shallow if you DIDNT watch til the payoff #but any time this opinion is used as a blanket over all of his characters including tary and even FCG.. like be serious #i mean at this point im definitely biased bc he is my favorite player at the table. However. that wasnt always the case #and even when i was myself writing some character choices off i NEVER applied that to the characters themselves. how can you?? #seen sooo many ppl criticize him for making veth an alcoholic or scanlan irreverent & hedonistic as tho it’s only possible #to play these traits as shallow jokes or at best played out satire…. and then the same person will turn around #and praise how percy was built to be pompous & superior and jester immature & self-centered and caleb steeped in self-effacing hubris #why are these characters and their players given a near universal acceptance of nuance and acknowledgement of growth & healing #but SAMS CHARACTERS ARE NOT!!!! #this turned into such a rant but it bothers me SO much. everyone at the cr table is so goddamned talented #and takes the game as seriously as it deserves #so many more points i could argue but this is already so goddamn long no one is reading this far. i love sam and all of his characters <333 #critical role #sam riegel #scanlan shorthalt #veth brennato #my posts

I keep seeing people say it's not fitting that Danse enjoys country music 😭 I find it pretty fitting and not out of character at all. he definitely puts on a country station while he's tinkering with his armor or guns, and hums along to it absentmindedly. I think it's sweet

#kasper yaps #i only recently actually started listening to country so maybe im biased #but i think people have a certain image of what country is when it can actually be a lot if different things #or maybe im just texan. idk #but i think danse would be open to any genre. he enjoys learning new things! #edit: putting this in the main tag cuz i want to know other ppls opinions #paladin danse

[foursaints]

saints what are your opinions on rosekiller's (very) unusual ways of showing affection?

i mean like evan biting barty when theyre laying together, barty pulling strands of evan's hair hard enough for it to hurt but not hard enough to rip it out, evan tapping barty's skin (like tapping tapping, like how asmr-tists (?) tap on things) just because it feels nice, etc.

?

I'M GONNA SAY SOMETHING CONTROVERSIAL 🙌 i don't see them as a couple with a lot of PDA. yes, barty is obsessively slavering all over evan in public, but it's like... one-sided and perhaps a touch performative? the most affection evan will publicly show is maybe quietly holding onto barty's sleeve <- he is always doing this

but i think they're perceptive characters who are both highly Aware of each other's bodies at any given moment, and their real pda is just how seamlessly they move around each other. it's how they always end up sitting next to one another, or anticipating each other's movements and needs. they're not touching, but you can almost palpably feel them pinging each other like satellites.

fanon barty is super touchy in private too. and i agree that in public/with friends he 100% is (he likes to use physicality to Instigate Reactions). but i try to remind myself that ESPECIALLY with an intimate partner, he is someone with deep issues surrounding bodily autonomy/his own embodiment, who is unused to being touched in a nonviolent way. there's a difference between barty initiating sexual contact and the more casual intimacy you describe. EVAN is the one who grew up cuddling a sibling, and he most likely initiates those little shows of affection....

but mostly i think they show affection via that quiet mutual (somewhat stalker-ish) awareness. it's a careful peeling back of their respective shells

#a #yeah i agree with those examples! maybe im biased but i think most longterm couples end up showing physical affection in similar ways #you're just exposed to their body for so long it's natural to like. bite their nose & put your head in the nape of their neck or whatever #there are only so many options if that makes sense #so im more interested in how rk navigates public vs private affection because it's more unique to them and their characters #rose & thorn #t

I'm extremely divided with my opinion on Hades II. On the one hand, I'm one of the 7 people that played Pyre and really, REALLY loved it, so when they announced the first Hades and returned to the Bastion/Transistor-like gamepla it felt like a letdown. And Then they announced Hades II and i was, uh. Not very excited, because even if i really loved Hades, it was still more of the same ol formula.

on the other hand they just did a livestream showing the test version of Hades II and it looks incredibly beautiful, the gameplay seems entertaining as Hell and it FUCKS SEVERELY and I love what little we've seen of Hecate and Melinoë, so. I never said I wasn't a hypocrite

#mucho texto #<new textpost tag #unfortunately for me supergiant games is my favorite game developer since forever so im very biased #and to be fair to them they're really really really good at what they do so. #hades game #hades 2 #(HADES 2 SPOILERS MAYBE?) i love that hecate acts like a mom to Melinoë. thats her mom........ #hecate is also very mommy. sorry. #Anyways you should play Pyre. Game of all time. To me.

i don't mind seeing people interpret hope and lightning as having romantic connotations surrounding them in the lr lore, but i personally think claiming it to be proven as canon really undermines just how badly bhunivelze fucked with hope's head

"bhunivelze developed a romantic obsession with lightning because he absorbed hope's heart!" yes, but that's not all there is to it. you gotta keep in mind that bhunivelze used lightning to psychologically mess with hope for centuries, he used her image as a tool to get hope to obsess over the past and wish for nothing more than to be reunited with her (remember that the last time hope ever saw her was at the end of xiii, while everyone else aside from vanille and fang had come back at that point), and she had such a major hand in inspiring hope to become the person, the leader, he'd become since then

bhunivelze didn't inherit hope's emotions until after he had become obsessed with lightning as a symbol of the past. if you view hope's and lightning's relationship as platonic/familial (like i personally do) then bhunivelze becomes so much more sick, and it adds to the misogynistic undertones in his behavior toward mwynn and etro, his own family. he took something pure, the admiration a young boy had for an older woman who replaced his mom as his female role model, and twisted it into something dark, inappropriate and obsessive, something that would serve him. that's what he inherited. he was never able to love his mother or daughter, how could he possibly understand the familial love between hope and lightning?

bhunivelze's sudden feelings for lightning is, in my opinion, meant to disturb us because of how innocent hope's admiration for lightning actually is. turning hope back into a kid sells that even more, it specifically draws out lightning's maternal instincts toward him, just for her to be faced with what bhunivelze has twisted it into after centuries of torture. bhunivelze isn't representative of hope's and lightning's relationship, they're victims of his abuse of the human heart

again, interpreting them as romantic is fine and dandy if that's how you see them, but i feel like claiming it's all "proof that hope x lightning is canon" ignores a lot of important details surrounding them and bhunivelze, more specifically it downplays the absolutely devastating impact bhunivelze had on hope's state of mind, and subsequently, lightning's rage upon seeing it for herself

#im not really into the ship at all so i could be just as biased lol but thats my take on it #i havent gotten into the last two books yet so who knows maybe im missing something big #buuuuut in terms of bhunivelzes obsession with lightning? i wouldnt use it as proof of anything #bhunivelze is a sick fuck and VERY unreliable if youre looking to use his behavior as evidence of anything romantic #especially when the main takeaway from his backstory is his cruelty and indifference toward the women in his life fghjgyjh #final fantasy xiii #lightning returns

Does Chrollo ever wanna build a family with reader? And if so, what kind of father would he be? Would he make the child just as bad as him, or 'better'? It's for... biological reproduction science 👀

chrollo doesnt strike me as the guy who would *actively* plan for a family? idk, but he also doesnt seem to be the type to make a fuss if *cough cough* accidents happen. there would be the initial panic (something he masks very nicely) but then he'd be calm. sure, his lifestyle does not warrant such an extension of the family, but if that's what happened, let it be

i am very delulu here but he might even, idk, put in effort?? he may seem like a deadbeat dad but he doesnt intend on it. little lives are so fragile and his hands are far too rough and bloody to be molding them. most of the parenting falls onto you (like 90% of it) but he does pitch in for education. it feels wrong to not pass on that knowledge and experience.

if the child ends up having nen, well, welcome to the real world! your father is a criminal mastermind and has committed *checks notebook* a number of crimes that you cannot even count. this man who read you pinocchio when you were four and taught you how to write in cursive kills people without a second thought. do you still love him? well, he still loves you. sort your feelings out wisely :)

#as a mistake child i am biased #he's so girl dad coded tho #honestly he'd put in more effort if it's a girl #idk he just seems that way #maybe im thinking too much about pakunoda with this #ask #shumidehiro #i was thinking over this ever since i received this ask
