#they literally bicker all the time

[maknae-mess]

wenrene + “Point the gun at me. What are you waiting for?”

“You know what? This is possibly the dumbest situation you’ve gotten yourself into.” 

“You say that and yet, you’re right here with me.” 

Irene lets out a haughty chuckle. “Well, someone has to save you.” 

Wendy whips her head to look at Irene, who has a smug look on her face. “I do NOT need you to save me.” She rolls her shoulders. “I can save myself.” 

Irene hums. “Say that to little miss princess over here.” 

The young princess Chaewon looks so confused at the two women who are dressed in black. They look like bodyguards, can fight like bodyguards, but something about their demeanor does not scream bodyguards. Wendy is dressed in a nice black leather jacket with a ripped gray tee and black jeans and combat boots, while Irene is dressed in a black blazer and black tank top and black skin tight leather pants and flat sneakers. 

“How did you even get into this--” 

“SHUT UP?!” The kidnapper screams as he holds up his rifle, still pointing it at Wendy. He has listened to the pair bicker since Irene came sauntering into their hideout. It was bad enough Wendy had suddenly showed up mid transport. “HOW DID YOU GET HERE?” 

His frantic yelling causes Irene and Wendy to send each other a glance. They know that he’s lost control of the situation. Irene stares at Wendy pointedly.

How do you want to get out of this?

I haven’t thought that far. 

Irene rolls her eyes at Wendy’s readable expression. “After all these centuries,” she shakes her head. “Hey, kidnapper,” she casually addresses with a tilt of her nose. “Point your gun at me. What are you waiting for?” 

Wendy’s eyes go comically wide. “Excuse me?” Even the kidnapper stares in disbelief because Irene’s tone isn’t pleading to save the love of her life, she sounds rather bored.

“I said someone has to save you,” Irene repeats herself rather arrogantly. She stands up straight. “I can take the bullet this time.” There’s a smug look on her face. “Again.”

Wendy scoffs in disbelief. “Oh, shut up, I can take the bullet this time. You really act as if I need saving all of the time.” 

Irene shrugs. “You’re a princess, you always need saving.” Wendy is about to argue when--

“I SAID SHUT UP! WHY DO YOU KEEP BICKERING?” The kidnapper yells in distress and suddenly the rifle goes off with a loud BANG.

Irene flinches at the loud sound and sharp tear in her skin. “OW!” She grabs the bleeding hole in her stomach. 

“Unnie!” Wendy yells, startled that the kidnapper actually shot Irene. 

Irene groans as she looks at the blood on her hand from her wound. “God, he used a full metal jacket.” She glares at him. “You’re military AND you’re kidnapping the princess?” She looks offended at him and turns to Wendy. “I’m not letting him go alive.” She holds up her fists and rushes towards the kidnapper.

Wendy grimaces. “NO! Jagiya, we are not killing anyone this century!”

Was talking about Star Trek with my parents cuz we’re lame, and I brought up Spirk cuz I’m infinitely more lame, and my nearly seventy-year-old father said “if anyone was *makes vague gesture*, it was Bones and Spock”

#“they bicker like a married couple #i mean so true but why would you think that without any prompting #god this sounds like the parents stop being homophobic cuz of johnlock thing #i promise it’s real it’s literally midnight as I’m typing this cuz I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep unless I got it out #like he says out of pocket shit all the time this one is particular just through me for a loop #and the spirk thing was semi-related to the conversation #i promise I don’t just bring up ships from media my parents had as children out of the blue #star trek #star trek tos #tos #spirk #spones #god i straight up forgot the ship name i for a second i though it was McCock

its the way that adam, mira and kai care about each other from the moment they meet for me ,, without even knowing them, adam smiles fondly at kai and mira bickering in the room while he's checking out the vent, and mira and adam laughing together at kai's clumsiness, them also running towards him in panic, mira immediately taking his hands when he gets electrocuted, adam remembering kai's name before kai himself does, all of adam and kai's fights feeling more like the way two friends with repressed feelings about their own roles in the group would fight when lost rather than strangers ,,,, its like they remember loving each other before they remember who each of them are :((

#im rewatching s1 and feeling emotions #this might just be me and i know adam and mira being close to kai in the real world before s2 is disputable #but they care about each other to me #the hollow #the hollow netflix #save the hollow #juno speaks #kai the hollow #the hollow kai #kai th #adam the hollow #adam th #the hollow adam #mira the hollow #the hollow mira #mira th #btw with the kaidam feelings thing the way i see it kai wants to prove hes just as good as adam whilst adam just wants every1 to stay safe #hes unaware that kai is trying and kai is unaware adam's not #i could be mischaracterizing but it just.. idk i dont think two literal strangers would be so comfortable bickering all the time

PJO & Palestine pt. 2

This is going to unpack some bullshit I've seen about Rick Riordan. For pt. 1 about why "boycotting Disney" is not actually the thing you need to be doing right now, go here.

Imma try to keep it brief this time <3

In addition to the misleading info about Disney as a boycott target, I've seen some ridiculously facile takes about boycotting the show because of Rick Riordan.

As far as I can tell, the drama stems mostly from this blog post, where he shares his (fairly tepid but still principled) view of Palestine and Israel.

Here are some key takeaways:

The blog post is from Oct 17, 2023. Only ten days into the genocide, and with plenty of attention still lingering on Oct 7 worldwide. As far as I know, he hasn't shared any updated reactions

Should he? Maybe. Here's what he has to say about it in the blog post:

He goes on to talk about having readers in both Israel & Palestine:

Maybe you think he should pick a side. Maybe you're sick of both-sideism and if you see one more media take equating Israeli grief to Palestinian grief during a motherfucking genocide you will launch yourself into the sun. Rick goes on:

I don't know what you were expecting from a children's author whose overarching theme is, "You might think you know who the monsters are, but be careful; black-and-white thinking like that reduces us all."

[SPOILERS for non book readers] In PJO, Percy ultimately agrees with Luke that the system is unjust and can't remain as it is. Luke's willingness to sacrifice the lives of their friends is the thing he can't support.

The series deeply explores questions of monsters vs. victims, how our circumstances shape us, institutional injustice...

I get the anger when people, especially celebrities and the media, use calls for nuance to avoid taking a stand. I don't think it's accurate to say that's what's happening here.

I said I'd keep this short and I've obviously failed, so let's get to the most damning part of Rick's blog post:

This is what has people calling him a Zionist. And do I kinda hate it? Yeah, I do. That line "security and support" is propaganda that Israel has spent 75+ years feeding into the global media machine. I also hate that the overwhelmingly pathetic response of most public figures has conditioned me to be impressed by breadcrumbs like 'Palestine should also be secure and supported and free.'

So there you have it. Rick's opinions from 10 days into what has become a 100+ day genocide.

Maybe this all sounds unforgivably centrist to you, and that's your right. You don't have to engage with his stories. Approaching content with an eye to the author's real positions and attitudes is a healthy way to interpret media critically.

However, I'd really like people to remember two things:

This is not a JKR situation. Watching the show does not give money to someone who actively uses their platform to spread hate.

If this is about your own media purity, I have bad news for you. Literally none of your faves are perfect, and neither are you. Trying to only interact with un-cancellable media is futile, discourse-killing, and self-absorbed at a time when there are more important things we should be doing.

Ultimately, the choice of whether to engage with content from someone whose views you don't agree with is your own. You get to decide where to draw that line.

I, personally, can respect a lot of what Rick says here. He's a children's author using his platform to speak to children. He has his eye on the long game. He still emphatically argues for a free Palestine.

There have been other betrayals from other artists that I couldn't tolerate. It's a personal choice.

So please, stop shaming people for watching this silly little show. Stop trying to police how others engage with media that isn't hurting anyone.

There's work to be done.

#and bickering with strangers online or cultivating a perfect media diet aint it #pjo #pjo tv show #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo series #rick riordan #palestine #free palestine #pjotv #if you're gonna rest by talking fandom on the hellsite then rest #we need all the energy we can #stop wasting it with petty bullshit #literally there is not enough time #also zionists feel free to interact. i look forward to blocking you. #extraaa

[quirkle2]

oh nooo that's quite a bummer :( but i'm very glad that i helped brightening up your day :") tbh your writing brightens up my day too (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

AND WAIT I'VE BEEN ACTUALLY QUITE THINKING ABOUT WHETHER ZOMBIE MOB HAS FOUGHT OFF A ZOMBIE WHEN I ASKED IF HE HAS EVER BITTEN SOMEONE and since you brought it up, well, would be okay to ask about the details of how it went 👁️👁️ (also him fighting off a fellow zombie to protect tome got me sobbing)

- 🪻

aww im glad my silly little words brighten ur day!! ur so sweet :]

and yes, it went horribly <3! tome prolly wasn't paying attention as closely as she should've been and got herself surrounded by a crowd. to be clear, that's not Always dangerous, since zombies arent like,, after ur brains in this constantly. but these zombies did look quite hungry, and human or not, she looked like a good meal,,

she had wandered off a bit from mob n ritsu, but mob heard the commotion first. tome has a big fucking baseball bat in this au that she likes to swing around, but a baseball bat can only get u so far in terms of self defense. she thins the horde but there's simply too many of them

mob lets exactly One zombie grab her and yank her toward them before he goes ballistic

watching zombies fight is a lot closer to watching wild animals fight than anything else, and it gets quite horrid sometimes. since their bites aren't rly "dangerous" to each other beyond the typical Oh No a Chunk of Flesh is Gone (not even painful for them, since their nerves r.. less than functional), the fight is a lot more close up and gruesome than a fight against a zombie and a human would be. humans usually back away from zombies immediately and try not to touch them at all in fear of getting bitten; zombies don't need to care abt that

most of the horde realizes that this meal isn't going to be easy and they wander off, but a few more hungry, more desperate ones try to rip into mob's throat at the first sign of defiance. it's not exactly a fair fight; it's like 1 against 4, so he's sorta bound to lose

thankfully ritsu shows up and shoots two of them down (he's Terrified of shooting mob by accident, but either way he'll probably die, so) and tome gets the last one with a good swing to the head. ritsu rushes to mob and is horrified by the amount of blood dripping from his neck and his arm; tome is equally as shocked, but she's mostly thinking, "ive Never seen a zombie defend a human before"

mob's neck is thankfully mostly just scraped up and clawed, but there Is some gruesome punctures where canines sank in and tugged. it's a lot worse along his arm that's bitten and gouged beyond belief. he loses a lot of blood here, but the whole nerves-no-longer-work thing is a blessing in disguise atm; he'd be in a lot of pain otherwise. while ritsu and tome are patching him up w shaky hands he simply glares beyond their shoulders like he thinks he's still in danger, even when they tighten the bandages. it's like he barely notices what they’re doing

his strangely alert behavior makes them think abt the possibility that maybe mob Knows he could've easily been shredded apart there, and he's a little scared and worked up abt it. the only reason he managed to fight as long as he did without dying is prolly bc the other zombies weren't as well-fed as mob—they were kinda weak and shaky from days of no food, but mob has humans taking care of him and keeping him fed 24/7

they're all shaken up by it pretty good.. tome is still reeling from the fact that mob defended her so valiantly, and ritsu is quietly horrified by the idea of another zombie killing mob instead of a human. he doesn't know which is worse

#qktalks #anon #zombie au #this isn't the first time ritsu has had to kill a zombie btw ^ #this is just the first time he's had to kill one since he started seeing zombies in a different light #it was either letting his brother die or killing a zombie. ritsu's upset that he had to make that decision at all #but he's not afraid to say that the decision was incredibly easy to make #it sucks that he had to kill one but . for mob ? literally anything goes #ritsu checked tome over after they took care of mob too. tome's very surprised when he's rly gentle abt it #ritsu's been known to .. lose his head a little in moments of stress #and sometimes he snaps at tome bc of it. he never means to he's just..worked up #but this time he's kinda fretting over her and it opens her eyes a little bit #ritsu has indeed grown to care abt tome a lot. they bicker Most of the time but it's usually not very serious #in all the excitement tome just hadn't rly realized that until now. ritsu is so high-strung that it's hard to get a read on his softer side #but now he's not just directing his softer side to his brother‚ but to tome as well #i have 15 more tags to explain smth i wanna make clear btw let's hope i don't start rambling abt smth else entirely #so i've been using a lot of vocabulary in these au posts that hint toward mob being ''special'' or ''abnormal'' in his behavior #he is not special or abnormal in any way #Every zombie is like that. every zombie has a personality‚ and a gentler demeanor hidden behind that desperate starvation #and remnants of their past selves in there somewhere #mob is simply one of the only zombies that have been taken in and cared for and treated like a sick person rather than a monster #as i've said before most people just.. either run away or shoot them between the eyes when crossing paths with a zombie #they don't give any of them a Chance. mob is a very very lucky zombie. #he is healthier than most other zombies and he is treated far better #and the way ritsu constantly talks to him is actually great for his health ! gets those rusty gears in his head rollin #exercises that brain‚ even if‚ to ritsu‚ he's only responding in odd gibberish #that's only one of the things ritsu gives him that other zombies never receive in their lifetimes #i'd say mob prolly ? has one of the longest ''zombie lifespans'' #most zombies either die of starvation‚ dehydration‚ or sleep deprivation within a few weeks #he's lived a long zombie life !

In the meantime, Pikavee gazed up at the stars that dotted the black and blue sky. She noted how even in a place as alien as this, the constellations looked exactly as they did back in Sciliva.

She always liked looking at the stars. It brought a sense of calm, even in a time like this.

She then spotted something else directly in her field of view. A sliver of light that stood out among the scattered sparkles. Her calm became that of dread as she realized.

It was a crescent moon. The shape was so thin that she almost missed it among the cluster of stars, but there was no mistaking it.

She averted her eyes soon after, but it was too late to regret looking at it. Her eyes shut in pain as her headache returned fullforce, becoming unbearable.

Thankfully, it lasted only a moment. It ebbed as quickly as it flared up, back to a dull ache.

She sighed in relief, before being startled at the sound of rattling bushes and crunching grass.

Pikavee: “Lief? You’re back already?”

Then she spotted the orange-red glow from the red-orange markings and heard the grunts she made as she dragged along a wagon full of goods with her mouth, and she realized with fear who it actually was.

Butt first, Fenninkou stepped in the open, pausing to say:

Fenninkou: “Nope! Me again! Eheh.”

Before resuming her toil, now struggling to pull her luggage completely out from the bushes.

Pikavee: “Wh-what are you doing here…?”

Fenninkou’s voice came out somewhat muffled as she replied, still focused on tugging the wagon free.

Fenninkou: “I brought you something. I dunno what giants eat, so I figured I’d find out and bring… ngh, bring everything.”

She growled through gritted teeth as she pulled even harder.

Fenninkou: “Come on, you crappy–”

Pikavee: “D-do you need help?”

Fenninkou: “Almost got it!”

She didn't. It was still stuck.

After a moment longer of awkwardly watching and wondering if she should do something, Pikavee did do something.

The oval marking on her forehead lit up with a gentle, lavender glow. The wagon became enshrouded in that same color.

She gently helped Fenninkou along, using telekinesis. The latter’s eyes widened in surprise at the sight of the glow.

Now that the wagon was unstuck and out of the brush, the glow faded from it and Pikavee’s forehead spot.

Within the wagon in question was an assortment of items, but what stuck out were the jars full of honey apple jelly.

Somewhat curious, Fenninkou turned to face her.

Fenninkou: “Was that you?”

Pikavee: “I-I hope you didn’t mind… did you mind?”

Her tail upright and wagging, Fenninkou looked at her with awe.

Fenninkou: “No way! That was amazing! Thanks~!”

Pikavee’s fearful expression had mostly faded. That is, until Fenninkou stepped closer to her, and she shied away somewhat.

Fenninkou paused in response.

Fenninkou: “I’m not gonna attack you again, ok? I promise. I just want to talk.”

Fenninkou: “We can talk, right?”

Pikavee: “I-I don’t know…”

She found it hard to keep looking Fenninkou in the face.

Pikavee: “What are you doing here, really?”

Fenninkou: “I couldn’t sleep.”

Pikavee definitely didn’t see that declaration coming.

Pikavee: “H-huh–?”

Fenninkou: “I felt really bad for what happened and wanted to do something, but I didn’t know how. So I stayed up thinking and thinking about it, at first. I thought about asking Mr. Livingston something…”

Pikavee: “Really…? What did he say?”

Fenninkou: “Oh no, no one knows I’m even out here. I snuck out of town.”

A double whammy of a confession. She didn’t expect that, either.

Pikavee: “Th-that’s just reckless!”

Fenninkou: “I got excited, ok?! I thought about asking Mr. Livingston where I would look if I wanted to find humans, and then I realized how I could help you! What if we searched the entire Isle together and looked for clues? And even treasure! We could be like real Treasure Hunters! And all we need to do to get started is to go back to town right now and asked Mr. Livingston where to start!”

Fenninkou: “Then I couldn’t sleep because I got so excited! And I figured I could come talk to you and share with you my favorite food, too~!”

She now went back to tug the wagon close, right up to Pikavee’s toes. At this point she began rambling about the uses of honey apple jelly while taking a jar to eat from.

Pikavee was at a complete loss for words, at first. This same child that was adamant on humans being dead was now in front of her downplaying all of that and pacing around like an overeager puppy.

Pikavee: “Wait. Wait a minute, please…”

Fenninkou slowed, looking up at Pikavee.

Pikavee: “Y-you said that there’s no way they could be alive before. Now you’re changing your mind?”

Fenninkou: “Yeah. Mr. Livingston never told us they were dead. Just that they were gone. Maybe he meant ‘missing’ gone and not ‘gone’ gone.”

Fenninkou: “So now I think that they’re out there, and we just haven't found it, yet. Maybe it’s a place no Treasure Hunter has ever seen before~!”

She went back to eagerly guzzling her helping of honey apple jelly.

It really sounded too good to be true. Again, Pikavee had trouble looking at her directly.

Pikavee: “And what if you’re wrong? What if we’re wrong?”

Fenninkou: “How else will we know for sure?”

She swallowed her mouthful and licked the bits of jam stuck to her maw and lips.

Fenninkou: “That whole ‘they’re probably dead’ thing really was just my opinion, but if it’s true? We’ll find another way.”

Fenninkou: “Maybe you can be with me and Rue. Help make the Isle a better place. What do you think?”

Pikavee: “Um… I…”

Pikavee wasn't sure what her answer was, yet, regarding the latter half of what Fenninkou said.

The former bit, regarding going to ask Livingston? Different story.

Pikavee: “M-maybe we should start from the beginning, first. Fenninkou, was it?”

Lief: “Oh really, now?”

The two look over with shock at the sound of his voice. He had just returned from the look of things, with quite a few oran berries sticking out from the fur of his curved tail.

Lief: “It isn’t enough that you bully her and make her cry, now you’ve stalked her and filled her head with ridiculous ideas~.”

Fenninkou: “Hey–! How long have you been there?!”

Lief: “Not long at all, actually. But you really do have a big mouth.”

He casually walked up to them, joining them here in the clearing. He rested a hand on his hip as he stood before them.

Fenninkou: “B… big mouth?!”

Then Lief pointed her way while glancing over.

Lief: “I’m serious, you should work on that. If you’re dead set on selling out, learn to be quiet out here.”

As Fenninkou looked even more stunned, he turned to Pikavee next.

Lief: “As for you, Missy, what do you think? Do you want her help?”

Pikavee took a breath. Inhale, exhale…

She had intended to come off firm, but actually speaking it made her sound quite skittish instead.

Pikavee: “L-Lief. I know what you said before, and I promise I’ll be careful. But I need to do this.”

Lief: “Which is why I’m coming with you.”

Now Fenninkou and Pikavee both gawked at him, caught off guard.

Pikavee: “Y-you’re not gonna stop me? Or talk me out of it?”

Lief: “Oh, I still don’t like every bit of this. We’re lucky enough to leave when we did before she could poke her nose in it. But I said my piece already.”

Lief: “Besides, you look like you have your mind made up. Like if I hadn’t shown up, you would have followed this little thief back to town. And now would be the best possible time to go back.”

Fenninkou merely grumbled in response.

Fenninkou: “Big mouth… I’m not a big mouth.”

Fenninkou: “If you don’t like us so much, why do you keep coming back, anyway? Why even follow her around?”

Lief: “Because you townies are hilarious. Plus, someone needs to keep an eye on you and make sure you don’t give her more hopeless ideas.”

kny x tokyo ghoul au

was thinking abt following tokyo ghoul's storyline and making nezuko get organ donor ghoul-ified like kaneki but on second thought that seems a bit boring. the slayer marks (tanjiro's specifically- that one frame in the red light district arc where he looks like hes absolutely lost it) made me think of the sort of insanity thing with centipede kaneki when he started eating ghouls. (nezuko's bout of literally losing control of herself beating daki is probably a bit closer tho) dont know what to do with that. tanjiro being human and having to keep nezuko safe with her new life as a half-ghoul is pretty cool but i dont know. could make it different

#sakonji as coffee shop owner and sabito & giyuu as workers and the fox squad being the underground Good Ghouls makes me kick my feet #goth/alt vibe makomo as the mask maker MWAH and sabito & giyuu playing as regular college kids. giyuu 'eating' out with friends and #sabito drive-by eating his food before booking it (Sabito-! you bastard!) and later when theyre alone giyuu holding his hair back #(you should stop eating my food all the time..) ((im fine- as long as it makes it easier on you)) #tanjiro working as a server & nezuko more as #. #i forgot hanae-san also voiced Kaneki #what the fuck is it with him and voicing the main characters of anime about the morality of cannibalism #its not much but its weird that its happened twice #i completely fucking forgot abt that and here i am literally putting tanjiro in his place #as i was saying nezuko has a 'job' there but shes not actually employed or forced to work she just hangs around in uniform like her brother #while tanjiro's the one thats employed. shes the cute mascot of the place and sabito gets hype with her and it entertains ppl #sabito nezuko interactions beloved<3 she makes him go big brother mode #giyuu's behind the counter helping sakonji make coffee so he doesnt have to interact with people (as much) #something something also half-ghoul genya being an antagonist at first until tanjiro & nezuko's bond makes him change his mind #and he becomes the newest employee at the coffee shop. que him and sabito bickering at eachother like children and tanjiro being so #sweetfaced and genuinely kind to him & giyuu being a chill comforting presence he can go to #confides in them his fear about his brother and the guilt he feels for being around them bc it puts them in danger #mm #sweet au. great playing field to ruin absolutely everyone #i should rewatch/read tokyo ghoul its been almost a year i think #do that then decide how i want the au to play out if i want it to try to follow that storyline or if i should do some worldbuilding fuckery #of my own instead to completely change how nezuko & genya's half-ghoulness would happen #i remember i dropped tokyo ghoulre but i dont remember why. didnt bother after that Hide scene in the anime but i dont remember y the manga #i was listening to Seijatachi for writing vibes and stared a bit too long at the album image i put #kny #tokyo ghoul #kamado tanjiro #kamado nezuko #kny x tokyo ghoul au

feeling things about morgana. need to talk about him or ill die

#if im being so real i think a lot of people dislike morgana because they literally just dont think about his age 😭 #he literally cant be older than 3 during the events of p5 and while i dont think he has the mindset of a literal toddler #theres a reason why he acts noticeably less mature than the other thieves at times!! hes just a kid!! just a little baby man #hes also the only thief that doesnt join the party to change the heart of someone specific #he joins the thieves as part of a DEAL in which he gives the thieves info about the metaverse #and in return they help him get to the depths of mementos #as opposed to the other thieves who have all suffered injustices at the hands of one of the palace rulers #morgana doesnt have any reason to fight besides his ethics and the hope that he might have the chance to be human #on top of the fact that he feels inherently useless and lesser because hes a cat he also feels like he doesnt belong!! #he feels like he doesnt belong with the thieves!! a group of outcasts with no one else that he feels he doesnt have a place in!! #sigh #sorry he has so so so much potential and genuinely couldve been one of the best characters in the game had his arc been executed well #AND ANOTHER THING ACTUALLY #contrary to popular opinion i actually think the start of the okumura arc shouldve been longer to give adequate spotlight to mona AND haru #because theyre integral to eachothers character arcs and no one sees that for some reason!! #morgana gets someone who relies on him for metaverse knowledge again giving him feelings of usefulness that hes lacked #since makoto and futaba took his roles as advisor and navigator for the thieves!! #people think his outburst during okumura arc was solely due to his and ryujis bickerings #when its not!! he consistently feels undervalued by all the thieves!! #even akira doesnt notice anything is wrong with him until hes already run away #respect if youve read this far but the tags on this post are already long enough lmao 😭 #um. sorry hes everything to me #persona

sometimes I go into western fandom spaces for chinese webnovels and I feel like I'm going insane is chinese racism/ableism really that different from western racism that western fans don't notice them the way I do it can't be can it it feels so blatantly obvious to me but no one talks about it??????

not to say that folks can't enjoy them still I just start feeling like the person in horror movies that's the only person that sees ghosts

#my rambles #like this arc with desert dwelling people who are Inherently Brutish and Murderous and 10147x stronger than Normal people #and we Had to genocide them 'cause else they'd've suicide bombed hundreds of our cities #(which is confirmed true by one of those quote unquote savages' generals and the narratives just accepted was necessary) #like ????? #also seeing a book rec'd on its political intrigue and turns out there's a whole Thing about killing and subjugating the Savages #idk if 蛮人 is more or less yikes than 'barbarians' on a cultural context level but #yk #even in the ones I've started to read that are less bad about it #the barbarians/'we actually gave them a name this time but you know what we're talking about' #still essentially serve the narrative utility of tolkien's orcs #also the liao kingdom in y/wu even setting aside that I just find 'Ontologically Evil Kingdom' extremely boring as an archetype #(esp given the narrative utility of it was just 'well the stuffy nobles* Bicker and all that but when faced with an existential threat #they pull together #*read: deeply bigoted dogmatic hateful selfish exploitative rotten to the core groups people #which is boring and lazy and I hate it) #also just. good ol' chinese racism I can't remember if it's Actual Racist (w/ its descriptions mirroring descriptions of irl folks) but. yk #I need to stop picking structural holes in yuwu I'm done reading it I'm done #also this other one I found's base concept involves a mentally ill protag whose mental illness literally involves him sometimes becoming #an uncontrollable murderer or wtv #so #fun

never ask a man his salary a woman her age or a discord mod what age he and his girlfriend were when they first started “talking”

#every once in a while it occurs to me out of the blue #that he probably feels so full of himself #since I just didn’t respond to his harassment #and I abandoned this blog #he loves having the last word #he thinks he ruined my life and that I’m miserable and alone now #and it makes me feel guilty that I didn’t lay into him more #I do plan to vent my frustrations at some point #but I will do it in my leisure in my own time #I’m not an ugly jobless discord mod who makes my full-time working gf clean up five cats’ litter boxes and fix my food for me etc etc ^_^ #I guess I don’t have as much time as you do to dedicate to bothering others! ^_^ #not that posting on my own personal blog— that quite frankly you wouldn’t be reading if you weren’t obsessed w me— is bothering anyone! ^_^ #also I am not in the habit of bickering with every single person I ever meet #I prefer to focus my attention on the people and things that give me joy #if there’s anything I’ve learned from this it’s to yeet toxic people out of my life immediately. no second chances. I have no regrets. #my standards actually were never too high. plenty of ppl can meet them. I’m not the only person like me in the world. go figure. #it’s actually not normal to be as sick and incapable of getting along w others as you and the rest of your ‘community’ #still. I would like to speak on what happened because I regret that I held my tongue for those two years. #I don’t think it’s healthy to bottle up all of your negativity. #but I’ve realized now it may literally be years before I will have half the mind to think back on that time in my life and talk abt it #so Idk. I just wanted to say. #I genuinely hope he kills himself #I do not say that lightly #I am not someone who throws that phrase around like it’s nothing. #I genuinely mean it with every inch of my heart. he deserves to die horribly. #I just find solace in the fact that he is so miserable. not because he wants for anything material. #he is spoiled and lazy. but still he does not enjoy his life. how could he? all he does is badger ppl online all day. #it just blows my mind that someone that looks like THAT wld talk to me that way 🤣 you’d think being the ultimate loser wld humble him a bit #just wanted 2 get that out of the way #oviposting

i feel like my narrator and stanley would just beat each other up over nothing actually. they would never get along and never will

#but they only have each other so each other they have to deal with #horrible interactions actually. they probably cuddled like twice and immediately started fighting again #just silly bickering literally all the time #oh what a horrible situation theyre in ^^ they hate each others guts !!! wow #their relationship is so. BAD SNMDMBSNCB but thats the point #it makes it funny

colin morgan making merlin’s voice deeper and getting absolutely jacked for season 5 was incredibly cunty of him 

#THEEEE acting choices of all time #watching s5 ep3 and his forearms????? #'so gwen just mysteriously got locked in the kitchens which just mysteriously caught fire?' HIS VOICE IS SO DEEP #AND HES LIKE. BROADER THAN BRADLEY JAMES STANDING NEXT TO HIM LMFAAOO #suuuuuch a good episode #merlin not giving any fucks in s5 is so good #also arthur and merlin's dynamic in this season is soooooo fun and interesting to watch #like they're the most comfortable they've ever been with each other #their dynamic in this season makes the other seasons ALL feel like build up #and this season very much feels like exactly what they are - two best friends who have been singular to each other for a decade #they bicker literally 24/7 and sometimes genuinely angrily argue but it's all from a place of love #and they'll be yelling at each other and two seconds later saying how they'll protect each other or die trying lmfao #married couple energy fr #but at the same time merlin is drifting away becoming lost in his obsession w the prophecy #and finding it harder and harder to lie to arthur about his magic #it's hard to watch bc it's sad but it's acted and done so well that i also can't look away #EVEN WHILE YOU WERE KING THERE WAS MAGIC AT THE HEART OF CAMELOT GO OFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!! #screaming crying throwing up etc #anyway <3 #merlin #ellie yodels #the episode ending with arthur basically about to fist merlin ..... do NOT @ me for that until u watch the last 30 seconds of the episode #i am kidding but i am also not bc its INCREDIBLY funny

Okay I just feel the need to like, point something out about me (Jeannie) and Cole.

We are essentially siblings? At least, thats how we think of each other. We are so close that when it comes to fronting the two of us can switch back and forth extremely easily. The one thing keeping us from merging together is I'm more feminine and timid, and he's more masculine and protective.

Like, in conversations we can switch back and forth extremely easily. Which can give others a bit of a whiplash because usually that's just. not a thing???

Most of the time it takes a solid amount of effort to switch fronts, but when it comes to me and Cole We're just built different.

Like, I've even color coded this damn post to show you that we think and exist very similarly.

I don't know if we're some sort of subsystem, which honestly wouldn't surprise me, but it's certainly... abnormal.?

This at least can kinda give you a taste as to how our thoughts combine into each other. It's part of how we work together. How we can keep everything smooth sailing!

#jeannie🍓 #cole🥾 #we are very tired #its almost 2 am whoops! #thats what we get for reading fanfiction so late at night #its not myyyy fault #it is actually #it literally is #pthhh #we look insane #we are!! -michael #why the fuck u here u clown #because its fun seeing you two bicker!! :} #michael🚪 #heeheehee my silly little door :} #this is the headspace everyone #this is what happens literally all the time #no one will shut up #ever #rant #ramble #rant in tags #uhhh #idek how to tag this this is a mess #system wide rambles #sure

I’m dying…

… I totally forgot/didn’t notice before Sophie specifically tells Eliot to make sure Nate doesn’t sulk.

This show just keeps validating my existence.

#Leverage #he is the big brother of big brothers #also him carrying Hardison through the entire thing #literally exemplifying why he's so necessary to the crew #he spends all this time accounting for Nate plus Nate and Sophie's bickering accounting for Hardison's dramatics is easy #they're a bonafide crime family #you've got Nate and Sophie as the power couple parents #Eliot is the loyal eldest son and lieutenant #who takes care of things behind the scenes #and that's exactly how he likes it #Parker's the princess and the heir #Hardison's the younger brother who varies between her prince and the tech guy #keeps things together #gets all the info #I love this family #Things You Didn't Know Fire Was Into
