WHO WANTS TO SEE AN ORIGINAL AU I MADE
It starts with a headache
And you never have a good dream ever again
AU: Nightmare Eyes
(it's an original concept story/comic I've worked on over the years and I think it's fun to through it onto new fixations I have and see how it would work depending on the character)
It's a creature/parasite that latches onto a host and co-exists with the person. It manifests in different ways depending on person to person.
There's lots of good that come with it:
-Ramon can fly now using his nightmare nymph wings
-Ramon's punches/kicks are ever stronger now and have a little bit of armor
-He can turn it into inanimate objects, right now he can do hair ties and small bits of rope (he's kind of bad at it still)
But there's plenty of bad
-Ramon can no longer have good dreams. Only bad ones and nightmares. (being the hero who once protected the glade of dream losing the ability to dream? that's rough buddy)
-The eyes don't always listen
But Ramon's navigating through it, and he's not alone. He's gonna try and do some good with it, the small victories feel the biggest

Listen. I know she's dead by the start of season two (I'm assuming, I haven't seen past episode one), I know she's only a minor secondary character, I know she's just a love interest (to another minor character I might add) who doesn't have a huge amount of depth.
But Agnes from season 1 of Umbrella Academy means so fucking much to me.
Here's the thing. Agnes isn't young. She's maybe somewhere between sixty and seventy (I'm guessing, I'm ngl I'm not great at telling people's ages from looking at them lol).
You might call her old. Except the show really challenges that. Is Agnes old? She's so bright and full of life, she's one of the most upbeat and positive characters in the season. She's not unhappy, but she's not satisfied in life. Her story plays out like a romance novel where the 20 yr old Mary Sue protagonist runs away with her boyfriend to live a life on the run and finally finds herself.
She has such a youthful story and character. And it makes you think. Is Agnes old? Again, yes, she's dead by season 2, but hypothetically she has a good bit of time left. She got another 20 years. And she was (presumably) very happy.
Agnes' life didn't end after she turned thirty. Or fourty. Or even fifty. Agnes has the best and most chaotic time of her life at ~60 yrs old.
And the show never brings up the fact that she's an older woman. It's never an issue of contention, she doesn't struggle with it, she's not depressed that she's still making doughnuts and being a waitress at her age.
She's quietly positive that life still has a lot to show her. She's still happy, and fighting to have the life she wants. Agnes is still living.
And fuck I appreciate it so much. She's my favourite Umbrella Academy character. She's an absolute breath of fresh air, and the fact that she's a minor character somehow makes it all the better.
Because Agnes would have been so easy to write as a sad old woman who never had the life she wanted and who is depressed about her age, who was crazy in her youth and then lost her spark, and regains it only for a second before fading from the narrative and dying.
But Agnes isn't any of that. She's her own person, she follows Hazel because she wants to and because she's secure enough in herself to know exactly what she wants, not because she's insecure and desperate. She's so well written and she's not even relevant.
God I love her so much

You know seeing all those cute fanarts about Geto, Haibara, and Nanami cheering Gojo's fight with Sukuna from up above always makes me wanna shed a tear and also all those teacher!Geto au where Gojo always looks so happy teaching alongside him...and how all that now turn out to be like foreshadowing next chapter...like I'm really sad rn especially when he said he wished Suguru was there to motivate him before the fight...damn Gojo, no need to worry cz your Suguru is definitely cheering you on, you just didn't see it back there... and like, man, it's okay if you wanna rest now and join your Suguru, you've done so much and worked so hard...
Once again we are reminded how for Gojo, it always always comes back to his Suguru, no matter how many other of his friends and allies still there with him or recently passed away or even the fact that Suguru's body is literally still up and about and very much alive as the man who sealed him. Yet Gojo's heart and mind are still always on the man who, he of all ppl knows best, has died by his own two hands...for a year.
I mean seeing his face while he lies there and 'meets' all his late friends hurt af but at the same time I want him to rest...
It also throws back to when he said to Megumi about winning by dying is different than dying for winning (or sth like that) and how you'd always die alone no matter how many allies you got... Kinda wanna point out as well about that q&a where Gege said Gojo basically couldn't be killed...but that was years ago...so idk myb things have changed in their mind... Anyway who knows myb it's not definite yet...

I’m really happy that we haven’t seen a gratuitous shirtless shot of Jeng yet cuz we know he’s built built. But it’s so far been just mostly female gaze shots or perfect wardrobe choices that kinda lightly seduce/hint to Pat&the viewer.
This reminded me of an article, regarding the Bollywood industry, where they mentioned how Movies nowadays show more “sexy” scenes of the actors where they’re wearing less clothes. Whereas, older movies would focus more on the innate sexiness and chemistry of its actors.
All of this to say, I really love that we’re getting this slow-burn effect to the sexy component of this show. Thus, seeing in real time how BOTH characters are affected by each other and how much they desire each other. It’s not obvious because they can’t be even be honest with themselves yet. The forbidden component helps but the whole team(writers, director, actors, etc.) just added that extra *something* that takes it up a notch.

i’m doing a reread of the percy jackson series for the first time in literally a decade, and i know i’m like 12 years late to this epiphany, but i just realized that Percy’s fatal flaw is his loyalty to his friends, and his “achilles heel” is in the small of his back meaning that if someone wanted to kill him they’d literally have to stab him in the back… i am connecting the dots
