#two best blorbos

[mochalottie]

crazy to think that the two blorbos I have adopted this year are both called Miles, both have the nickname Spider, and both have an inordinate amount of angst in their characters.

this is basically a personal announcement to say I will be watching AWOW tonight and ATSV this weekend for the second time. both of these films are the first ones in years that I've gone to see twice because the first was so overwhelmingly awesome to be able to take in the plotline proper.

aka i love my boys so much can i wrap them in bubble wrap please?

#spider socorro #avatar the way of water #miles morales #across the spider verse #lottie watches movies #two best blorbos #i love them your honor

ever have a blorbo live in your brain for so long they become their own blorbo variant that’s no longer fully attached to their source material and your original blorbo is still beloved and dear to you but now you also have a mutant blorbo clone who is dear to you in a different way? 

#basically if you're persistent enough you can get two or more blorbos for the price of one #tsukishima and yamaguchi are best friends in high school in a volleyball anime #but also they are adults living in an apartment in my brain and they order takeout and watch How It's Made on friday evenings #may 2022

Can I please request Ghost with a s/o who is very comforting and protective over HIM?!? Like I love seeing Cod characters protecting and being the readers shoulder to cry on, even if they know you can handle yourself, but I wanna comfort my boy ♥️♥️♥️

Hey! Of coure you can! I really enjoyed this request, thank you very much! I'm just very soft for Simon, but I think that much has become obvious by now, haha!

Ghost with a Comforting and Protective Reader

More so than anything, he’d be surprised. He’s 1,95m tall, muscular and brooding. And yet here you are putting his face in your hands, calling him the most handsome man you’ve ever met. It’s not unwelcome, just not something he ever thought he’d have in his life. He expected to be the big, scary protector of his partner for the rest of his life, but having someone want to take care of him like that? Don’t get me wrong, it feels nice, but it also feels somewhat weird to him. He should be the big scary guard dog. While he may not be good with feelings, either his or those of others, he could always lend a listening ear. And yet you kiss his scars, reassure him that you will always stay by his side, no matter what and will tuck him into bed even. At first he doesn’t trust any of this, thinking you to be too nice to him, but eventually he’ll realize that there are no ulterior motives, that you are just like that towards him. And after some time, he’ll start melting into you, growing to trust you more and more each day. Simon would become a bit softer with you, would walk through fire just so he can see you smile. But you reassure him that no such thing is necessary. He may not ever be sure when it would be appropriate for you, but he’d come to crave your touch more and more as time goes on, even going as far as trapping you in the most tender hug he can muster. Sometimes he fantasizes about laying his head in your lap with you playing with his hair a bit, but he wouldn’t admit to such out loud since he still has his pride. You being protective over him would also be weird to him. He can handle himself just fine, so why are you getting mad at the cashier for the pickle in his burger? Why are you arguing with the drunkard wanting to start a fight with him? He won’t know what to do, no one’s ever protected him from anything ever since he was a little child. It would warm his heart a bit and make him appreciate you even more. Sure, he can do just fine on his own, but he’d be lying if he said his heart wouldn’t skip a beat whenever you’re being protective over him. If he could, he’d just pick you up bridal style and carry you home, but you’re in public so he’ll only think about how much he wants to be your little spoon this entire time. He’ll let his guard down around you and show you that he, too, can be a softer guy underneath his rough exterior with in the most domestic ways out there. He’ll think about marrying you immediately once he’s aware that he’s essentially become a softer man thanks to you. But he’ll wait still until he’s sure you’re on board as well.

#cod #cod x reader #simon ghost riley #simon ghost riley x reader #ghost x reader #I think about cuddling the big guy more than I would like to admit in all honesty #he's so far from my type I don't know why I've taken such a liking to him but to me he's a very nice man :-) #now it's also certain that soon enough I will get my driver's license! I registered today! #those are gonna be rough two weeks but I'll have it soon and then I can drive wherever I want to go! #that'll be so awesome I'm so excited! #anyway whenever I see Ghost I get this unexplainable urge to hug him even if I don't think he'd be the best hugger out there #but it would be a very comforting hug. he's huge and he's strong as well. plus he'd be warm too #I would literally fight someone just so I can see this man smile I want him to be happy so so bad #he's my blorbo and I will gently shake him and enrich his environment with a 3DS #he can play Pokemon on it! and viva pinata! #I wanna play SDV with that guy so so bad!

I love how well Legend works as a plot device for fics because of his veteran status. Got an item you need to work in? Legend probably has something that’s close enough, or you could just say he bought it for his stockpile. Need someone to be able to relate to a specific experience? Legend has 6 games worth of content for you to pull or extrapolate from. Need some background characters to help inform the heroes? Legend has 5 kingdoms worth of citizens he’s saved to choose from. Need romantic drama? He’s got that in spades no matter which partner you give him. So much content packed into one angry little man and I love that for him! :)

#lu legend #this might also just be my bias #half the fics I read are legend centric nowadays #he’s my favorite hero blorbo what can i say #ravioli ship #link x marin #what is their ship name? #ravioli is my preference but marin offers such good angst potential #he does have two hands though #best way to end a love triangle #linked universe

I like ‘bad’ fanfiction I like crackfic and silly AUs I like fic that diverges so far from canon that it’s practically unrecognisable and fic that is blatantly self indulgent I like fanfics with no plot and cliches and predictable twists and repeated tropes! not every fanwork has to be a bestselling novel every single fic has a place and a purpose and sometimes I want to come home and read something that doesn’t require me to think! sue me

#thank you to every writer ily and I see the effort you put into your fics I just hope you know you’re allowed to play around and be silly #we have such range. masterlist be looking like fic one: emotional turmoil ✨ fic two: piss kink ✨ fic three: blorbo works at sainsburys #I enjoy each and every one 👍 #sorry I’m preaching again ig lol I just saw some shitty comments on twit #‘omg this is so bad it’s so far fetched’ so what! it’s fun!! boring bastard aren’t u #bro I read fic for fandoms I’m not even in. for tv shows I’ve never even watched. as far as I’m concerned it’s CANON 🕺🏻 #hell ​some of the best plots I’ve read have been ‘poorly written’ fics #not everything has to be good sometimes being bad is why it’s charming smh #and bad is subjective anyway #sorry I just love fanfic #and I’m still hungover #priv

CrookedStar and Leafpool

Two cats who put loyalty to their clan above everything! Who gave up so much for their family and loved them with their whole hearts no matter how much it hurt! Cats who were lead astray and screwed over by dead people they trusted, who were lead in so many different directions by so many forces and endured it all because they just wanted to do the right thing! Cats who would genuinely do ANYTHING for their siblings, who were so so proud of them. They were shamed by those closest to them for perceived shortcomings they could do nothing about! They stood up for themselves and decided to forge their own paths!

AUGH I'M SO NORMAL ABOUT THEM!! If CrookedStar lived a stupidly long time, she'd remind him of his daughter and would've stood up for her during HollyLeaf's speech.

If the Erins weren't COWARDS they would've had CrookedStar talk to LeafPool in her dreams. They would talk for hours and hours and he'd be such a good listener. I think they deserved to be besties.

He would've loved MothFlight and Leafpool's relationship.

#leafpool #crookedstar #crookedjaw #not ship art #don't tag as such #warrior cats #warrior cat fanart #fanart #BrambleStar is so insecure its good that he never met CrookedStar #that's what a REAL good dad and leader looks like #he was just. the best. AND THE ERINS DID MY BOY SO DIRTY #I talk about this like any of the main events in the first arc would've happened with CrookedStar as leader and not LeopardStar #let me have my daydreams #my two favorite kitties #LOOK AT THEMMMM #I haven't read a book in ages #im talking at least 6 years #but my love for these silly sad blorbos remains as strong as ever

[acheronidae]

I haven't even met him in-game yet(because he isn't even there yet lol) and he's already reaching blorbo status.

#this game is pretty mid and yet it has two. count them TWO characters that I would consider blorbos #this guy and Svarog (can you tell I like robots?) #(the fact that he's gonna be playable took me by complete surprise in the best way possible #because I did NOT think Hoyoverse would ever make a (noticeably) non-human character playable and I am Very excited about it) #((they've got non-humans already but those are just regular people with animal ears/tails/etc. those don't really count)) #honkai star rail #screwllum #4tlas' art

Remember in Teen Titans (the good one) when Raven sort of died and then came back and bb was rlly freaked out cuz she was acting different? Remember when she responded to that with “don’t worry, blue is still my favorite color, and you’re still not funny.” And remember in that one episode where bb and cyborg went into Raven’s mind scape meditation thingy and Raven revealed that pink was her favorite color and that she thought bb was funny?

I think that she said the wrong things one purpose then, because she knew that bb would understand that she was sort of saving face since that information was sort of something only they shared (with the exception of cyborg but he’s the third wheel bestie so yknow)

#teen titans #teen titans 2003 #one of the best shows #I wish starfire got a season abt her tho #Terra showed up outta nowhere #but it was good for the team’s character development #and it also sort of gave bb two seasons abt him #which like #bb’s my blorbo so that’s a win #anyway #bbrae #one of my favorite straight ship #tho I do headcannon bb to be kind of fruity sometimes #maybe he’s bi or pan idk #or maybe he does it just for funsies #honestly k couldn’t watch the last season of young justice cuz I couldn’t stand bb literally being depressed #it physically hurt me to watch that #headcannons #yippee

With comic book fans it’s always “current [character] is so out of character because in [specific comic run from 30 years ago] he acted like this.”

Fellas, the best part of comics is that the characters constantly evolve, and probably have been changed over and over again for longer than you’ve been alive. Each writer and artist reimagines the character in their own way, in a new way that will speak to different people in a different time. I shamelessly love New 52 Red Hood & Arsenal, and don’t really like Three Jokers Jason Todd or Young Justice Arsenal. And that’s okay. Maybe you hate New 52 Jason and love Rebirth Jason. And that’s okay!!

Even though it’s irritating, don’t hate on writers and artists for creating your character in a way that you don’t find “accurate.” In comics, after all this time, I don’t think there is an “accurate” way to portray a character. They’re vessels to tell a story, and are meant to change.

It’s okay if you don’t like a certain portrayal of your favorite comic character, because you probably already have media out there to consume that does portray them in a way that speaks to you, and the character will probably continue to grow and change forever. And that’s really cool.

#sorry for the rant #stop getting mad that your blorbo is different than the piece of media that changed your life #you are YOU and that version of the character spoke to YOU #you should be happy that a different characterization of your little dude spoke to other people! #different people! #it should bring you together not start arguments! #like instead of arguing over which batman is the best let’s appreciate that we are two totally different people that are now connected #through our love and connection to the same little guy #we should be lovers instead #also im not saying all comic discourse is bad. i like some good discussion #but stop saying creators are doing it WRONG #comic books #jason todd #dc batman #dc comics #marvel #marvel comics #dcu #dceu #dcau #comics

crying screaming throwing up at the latest Lionheart update – only amplified by my listening to the Tortured Poets Department (anthology) while reading. What are your favourite songs from the album? and what would be Hermione and Draco's faves?

favorites: So Long London, BDILH, Florida, Guilty as Sin, The Bolter

Guilty as Sin? is the one that I'll be using for my imaginary blorbo music videos for a while, personally. BDILH is going to be the new star-crossed-lovers edit audio on TikTok from now til the heat-death of the universe, and I personally am going to enjoy that. The Bolter is the best storytelling, and I think its specificity is its strength.

I think Hermione and Draco are 90's babies, and I have self-indulgently projected my own taste for 80's/90's altrock onto both of them. I think Daphne would go full Swiftie in a hot minute, though. Would go nuts for the Alchemy. (It's me, I'm Daph.)

#greenteacup asks #that being said. i have been listening to the alchemy on repeat for the past two hours. so. #btw I just noticed 'so high school' uses the same chord progression as 'long live' which is notoriously a prom anthem #which is why I listened to it and was like oh I love it! :) and then I was like wait. I've heard this before. why do I think I love it #wait you — YOU WROTE THIS SONG ALREADY #I DON'T like this I like the OTHER one because it played at MY prom and I have Emotional Attachments to it #which of course is part of the point. you attach yourselves to these songs because they can hold projection! #swift is fully aware of this and it's why she's pivoted towards this style of music over the more confessional parts of folklore #the last 50% of Florida is one of the best parts of her discography and florence welch should be a permanent swift producer. by the way. #and if all of florida was like that it would be on every playlist about sad blorbos until the end of TIME #but they let JACK ANTONOFF NEAR IT — no i won't speak.

2023 camera roll: fandom edition

One photo per month of fandom shenanigans that made me so happy this year. Captions under the cut. Happy new year everyone!

January - Max cushion, spotted at a market and immediately purchased. The stallholder proudly told us she'd made it herself. British Max fans in the wild!

February - Get yourself a girlfriend who unknowingly buys you a matching Valentine's Day card 🤣

March - Get yourself a girlfriend who sees they're displaying an RB car at a nearby shopping outlet and demands you have a day out to visit

April - If you have that girlfriend, you gotta propose to her next to the Ross Fountain, with Edinburgh Castle in the background (@strawberry-daiquiris is my favourite thing I've found in fandom)

May - Miami GP watch party at the hotel at Silverstone. An Experience, to say the least. Not sure if our usual race commentary is appropriate for a public watch party...

June - Red Bull Factory drive by (we didn't go in because we aren't millionaires and their tours are £££)

July - Silverstone. Watched quali from Copse and simped over Oscar's P3 interview 

August - Zandvoort. Waiting for Driver Interviews at the Fan Stage (simping again)

September - That episode of Unboxed was too powerful for a phone screen

October - Austin. Williams Fan Zone. More simping; don't we all look at Alex Albon the way the Williams media guy does?

November - Watching our Oscar Christmas jumpers cross Europe and hoping they would arrive before 2024 (they did!)

December - Silverstone Winter Tour, got a bus around the track, went up to the podium, walked the pit lane and the starting grid, 10/10 would recommend

What an incredible 2023 I've been lucky enough to have. Thank you to all creators as you exponentially improve the fandom enjoyment experience ❣ here's to more in 2024!

#just getting emotional about a brilliant year don't mind me #h calls going to a GP 'attending blorbo festival' and we have been SO lucky to get to go to 3 this year #trying to be sensible* and just plan 2 next year #*this is enforced as we have to go to TWO destination weddings in May as if it's not the best time for European races 😭 #the only new year's resolution i've made is to wear a different item of team merch for every race day lmao #this was so much more fun than the sanitised insta version will be 🤣 please enjoy the true unhinged-ness! #about me
