Ok but consider this modern AU:
Jaskier wakes up one morning at a place he doesn‘t recognize without any recollection of how he came to be there. He‘s a little freaked out but maybe everything‘s fine, his cousin Ferrant is known to sleepwalk, so if he locks the front door and hides the key he should be fine. He goes about his day and then evening, and the next morning he‘s in his bed and his door is locked and everything is fine. It goes fine for a week.
Jaskier comes to his senses in the restrooms of a gas station with a fucking hole in his stomach and his body black and blue. He‘s kind of freaking out and blacks out again. The next time he wakes up, he‘s back in his room and his wounds are bandaged. There‘s seven missed calls on an unfamiliar phone on his night table which is ringing, waking him.
„You should take that call,“ a person sitting in a chair in the corner of a room.
The person on the other end calls him a Geralt, whatever the hell that is. Jaskier stammers something about the wrong number and hangs up. The person in the corner is gone.
He‘s got an awful couple of days, keeps falling asleep at work because he‘s afraid of going to bed at night. Essi and Valdo are worried (it‘s really bad when you know that Valdo is worried) but Jaskier doesn‘t know how to explain what‘s been happening to him without sounding like he‘s nuts..
And then he wakes up standing in a dark alley, covered in blood, dead bodies around him. And there‘s a voice in his head going Move. Now.
So Jaskier discovers that there‘s a ghost living in his head, taking over his body sometimes. He doesn‘t want to give up his body even though Geralt (that‘s the ghost‘s name) insists because what the fuck is this Geralt even doing when Jaskier is forced into a tiny little corner of his own mind?
So they bicker and they fight and Jaskier explains the underground and cars and electricity to Geralt and Geralt comments and complains about everything Jaskier does. Sometimes Geralt will try to get Jaskier to submit his body to him and then Jaskier will not speak with him for a day and Geralt will apologize and they move on. Jaskier tries not to sound like a lunatic when he‘s talking to the voice only he can hear (he almost loses it when Geralt looks at Valdo and calls him a witless, croaking, peacocking bastard).
And then Geralt gets the hang of television and starts watching the news. He calls it checking the notice board whatever that means and then he‘s trying to possess Jaskier‘s body again. And Jaskier fucking lets him when he explains what he‘s been doing (turns out Geralt is not the ghost of a serial killer, he‘s hunting monsters. Actual fucking monsters) under one condition.
„You‘re not going to put me where I‘ve been the other times. I‘m going to observe.“
No way.
„My body, my rules.“
Jaskier, I‘m trying to protect you.
„Take it or leave it, I don‘t care. If you want to hunt that… that bruxa or whatever, then you have to let me watch.“
And they go and Jaskier‘s body gets hurt and Geralt doesn‘t acknowledge Jaskier at all, despite how he patches the wounds up and drives them to the hospital. Jaskier apologizes but Geralt stays quiet.
After a week Jaskier fears that Geralt has left him. He tries not to think too much about how sad that thought makes him. He starts to feel lonely in his own mind.
He‘s watching a rerun of Frozen on TV when Geralt talks to him again.
There‘s someone you need to visit for me.
And that‘s how Jaskier meets Yennefer of Vengerberg who looks not older than 25, is apparently over 500 years old. Huh.
Jaskier keeps mediating between Yen and Geralt who very definitely had something going on that was interrupted by Geralt‘s untimely demise until they reach an understanding.
(Basically, Jaskier softening Geralt‘s barbs when Yen riles him up which results in Geralt becoming even angrier. But Jaskier knows the voice in his head well, so he translates and can come to the reason they‘re actually at Yennefer‘s.)
So, Yennefer is a sorceress and she can work on a way to extract Geralt‘s conscience from Jaskier‘s body. Jaskier pretends he isn‘t hurt by the fact that Geralt doesn‘t enjoy his company but Geralt‘s a grown man-ghost whatever, so he can make decisions on his own. So Jaskier lets Yennefer work on him and when he wakes up he feels strangely empty.
He thanks Yennefer and leaves, suddenly aware of how quiet everything is. He realizes that Geralt kept dark thoughts at bay, that he was a reassurance. Even if Jaskier was shit at throwing a punch, Geralt wasn‘t.
It takes another week before he realizes Yen didn‘t tell him what happens to Geralt when he doesn‘t have a host to possess. I‘m not sad, he tells his friends. He drinks a lot to get over a man he never even knew.
There‘s a knock on his door. It‘s in the middle of the night and Jaskier doesn‘t expect guests so he‘s surprised. He does open the door to find a man standing there, wringing his hands. He‘s got long white hair and yellow eyes. He looks mildly uncomfortable.
Neither speaks.
„I came here with a bus,“ the man says. „I still don‘t get why everyone uses them. What happened to horses?“
And Jaskier understands.
„Geralt,“ he whispers, „You came back.“
And finally, finally they hug and Jaskier buries his face in Geralt‘s shoulder and he listens to Geralt‘s breathing and the murmured words, „Of course I came back, Jask. You‘re my home.“

i rewatched episode five of moon knight again yesterday, and one thing that finally struck me for the first time is that in the flashback to when marc becomes moon knight, he only begins to genuinely mull over khonshu's offer when he says "do you promise to protect the travelers of the night, and would you bring vengeance to those who would do them harm"
and it's here that you can see something shift on marc's face, and he looks down at his hands covered in blood and sand, and it's like you can see the idea forming. he just failed to protect those who khonshu would consider to be travelers of the night, he was willing to die for them - almost did, and the man who did it got away.
so now either marc can die, or he can accept this offer, and maybe bring vengeance for all the people he just failed to save.

I first watched Tokyo Mew Mew in 2010 and haven't watched it since, so I've decided to recount what I remember of the plot before Tokyo Mew Mew New airs later this year (hopefully).
Basic Premise:
First, we meet Ichigo, our lovable, very normal, slightly ditzy protagonist in the vein of Usagi SailorMoon (I don't know either of their last names). She is a high school girl and has the required two mundane friends.
Ichigo has a crush on a guy named Ayoma whose only noticeable personality trait is that he does kendo
Ichigo is having a lovely stroll in the park when a blond guy named Ryu and his brunette friend whose name I don't remember activate...um...
They did something with endangered animal DNA? To meld it with humans? As part of an...awareness campaign about endangered species??? This is never brought up after the first three episodes.
Ichigo merges spiritually with a special kind of wildcat and now she's a catgirl who is also a magical girl.
She also gets the requisite "cutesy magical girl sidekick" in the form of a pink puffball with bat wings. (It is in fact very cute).
Ichigo proceeds to act in weird cat-like ways such as sleeping through class and liking fish (this is strange, I guess?)
Also, her cat ears keep popping out when she's embarrassed, which is terrible because Ayoma has no personality, and therefore no taste, and therefore probably won't find that hot.
Ichigo tracks down Ryu and his friend, who are funding their bizarre experiments by running a maid cafe. Ichigo needs to work with them so her cover is that she is now working at a maid cafe. Sure.
There is a secret lair under the maid cafe for the experiments and stuff. I really hope I'm forgetting that Ryu or his friend came from money because no way does this make sense otherwise.
Monster of The Week Stuff Happens While More Characters Show Up, Namely:
Mint (my favorite character back in the day) shows up. She does ballet, spiritually fused with an endangered bird of some kind and has little red wings that kind of look like birthmarks on her back.
Actually, all the girls were supposed to have little cutie marks like that and I think Ichigo's was on her thigh, but then the animation department ran out of money or something because I don't remember seeing the other girl's marks. (Maybe Zakuro's was on her belly button?)
The unspellable Kisshu/Quiche. I KNOW his name is supposed to be "Quiche" but your average American can barely pronounce that, so 2010s fansubbers trying to decode mangled Frechanese had no chance. They generally transcribed it however they felt was right in their hearts.
Kisshu is a green-haired alien pissbaby whose first appearance involved forcing Ichigo to kiss him. He behaves like a bratty younger brother but is the best love interest on entertainment value alone.
Lettuce (yes, this poor bitch is named Lettuce) who spiritually fused with a dolphin. She was so so lonely her nascent powers caused paranormal activity at her school and Ichigo had to pretend to kill the timid, bullied Lettuce to placebo the girl into gaining some confidence and becoming a magical girl in earnest.
I remember Lettuce was the only chracter who could use her Special Magical Girl AttackTM without moving her arms, so there were a few times she did it while wearing handcuffs.
Lettuce's weapon of choice were castanets. I don't remember any of the others with surety but I don't think this was the weirdest.
Pudding, who spiritually fused with a monkey, and is somehow supporting her five younger siblings as a street busker. I think it was implied that they are for real living in poverty while she's also doing all this magical girl stuff? Weirdly dark subplot for a magical girl anime.
Zakuro, who spitirtually fused with a wolf. We meet her late in the series after she has done some of her own vigilante work, Sailor V style.
I believe her name means "Taro Root" which convinced me to try a taro root bubble tea for the first time when I was a kid. It was purple and tasted like sugar cookies and convinced me that Zakuro was super cool.
Mint is in lesbians with Zakuro.
Zakuro was the only girl who never got an extended trasnformation sequence. (The "animation department ran out of money" theory strikes again.)
Kisshu's Alien Buddies: The stoic, straight laced Pai, who was kind of Lettuce's love interest, and...oh god...I watched this on youtube, back when you could do that as long as all the episodes were split into three parts and there was one part which opened with Pudding shrieking this guy's name so loud it broke my eardrums, but I can not for the life of me remember his name. We'll call him Caramel, he's Puddings love interest.
The Parts of the Plot That Weren't Monster of the Week Stuff:
Ichigo and Ryu had a will-they-won't-they despite the fact that she's in high school, he's a fully grown man, and he experimented on her without her consent.
Actually, between all three of Ichigo's love interests (Ryu, Ayoma, Kisshu) it seems like the writers, in their shameless Sailor Moon rip-off decided "You know what's better than one Tuxedo Mask? Three Tuxedo Masks!" and just carved Damien into three parts.
The...villian? Of the series is something called Deep Blue. It's the planet's life force and the aliens want to steal it because they used to live on earth, and then the ice age happened(???) so they fled to another planet, which was worse because it is also going through an ice age(???).
Either they think earth belongs to them or they just want to harvest Deep Blue and bring it to their new planet where it can stop the ice age.
But wasn't Deep Blue also the force that was creating monsters of the week?
It's possible either that this was badly explained, or I didn't understand it as a kid, or I didn't understand it because it was badly explained.
There was a hot springs filler episode.
A blond elf-type guy is running around with a fancy sword. He looks exactly like Ryu, except with longer hair and elf ears. His name is the Blue Knight and his purpose is the show was....um...to fufil Ichigo's "getting rescued by a handsome elf" fantasy?
All I remember is that he actually turned out to be Ayoma? Mr. Zero-Personality? He never even manages to remember that he is the Blue Knight, but this still tricks Ichigo into thinking he has a personality.
Pai and Lettuce proceeded to have a conversation during their final battle that could only have been conducted through telepathy.
Uh....I don't remember the next bit, but then it goes SECRET TUNNEL THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS SECRET TUNNEL SECRET TUNNEL
The crisis was averted, once again the day was saved thanks to the powerpuff girls, the aliens returned home...empty handed? Fuck them, I guess. Ichigo gets to go back to being a normal girl dating her boring-ass boyfriend.
The only thing I really remember about the ending is being deeply disappointed that no one actually got a hot alien boyfriend.
THE END

Hey Pasta! How have you been? I just wanted to ask if you've seen the Moon Knight series? Y'know because of Oscar Issac?
Things have been crazy tbh but I think we're coming down to the wire on the moving in process fortunately! I'm frantically unpacking boxes in prep for the final, already twice delayed moving pod delivery this week. BUT once that's delivered, I'll have all my stuff finally. 🙌 Ironically, I can't put it all away though cause my attic bedroom is going to get a little reno soon, but progress is progress, especially since that reno will involve a Daredevil color scheme...
As for Moon Knight, I have! I haven't had a chance to sit down and watch the final ep yet but I've loved it so far. Granted I'd probably be happy watching Oscar Isaac watching paint dry but STILL, SO FUCKING GOOD! I need more, I need him and Frank and DD to be on the same screen, I want him in the movies, Steven Grant is also a pure precious being who I wish to protect at all costs, he is going with my other Sad Bois that I collect like plushies, thank you.

So, who wants to hear a theory about something (that's most likely) totally inconsequential on Moon Knight?
Friends, I humbly present to you...
The Marc-mallow Theory
So, we all remember Layla eating marshmallows while she was getting her fake passport made, right? And then again in the asylum, which as of episode 5 we're pretty sure is in Marc/Steven's mind?
So the question is, if no one from the Moon Knight system was there when Layla got the fake passport, why would the version of her in their mind be eating marshmallows?
I think the answer lies in the scene from young Marc's birthday. If you look at the table, you'll see a plate of - you guessed it - marshmallows!
So the theory is that Marc was the original marshmallow fan, he got Layla into them, and she continued to eat them even after they parted ways.
Bam! The Marc-mallow Theory.

embarrassingly, reading moon knight fanfic gave me an oc idea
#ok so theres this robot thats called the diddo bot#like ditto like pokemon like how ditto can change its shape... so.#this robot has 6 different ''personalities'' programmed into it for different tasks#uno is the factory setting then its cateye the protective one tracy the persuasive one rex the extreme no fear having one#pidge is shy and can go off the grid/turn the whole bot invisible#and the last one is 6 he doesnt have a nickname.. hes just the smart one who strategizes and knows a lot about computers like a hacker type#and if youre like ''this sounds like watered down DID'' yes its exactly that. i was reading moon knight fanfic.#bc i have ocs with DID who actually HAVE DID. how DID is presented in moon knight is a bit more fantastical#so i wanted to do fantasy DID basically. and i settled on a robot who has a screen that changes faces depending on who it is#and their chest screens have their numbers and can show other members inside like looking into a TV at their inner world#like in teletubbies but instead of babies its like 6 sitting at a computer being like ''yeah i can come out and fix that phone issue''#this isnt meant to make DID into a joke or anything just think like.. crazy jane from DC. how all the alters have diff powers. just like th#and doom patrol like the hbo max show actually does a GREAT job showing jane's DID its fantastic. watch doom patrol season 4 just came out#also part of the joke/pun with the name diddo bot is not only ''ditto'' but did. DIDdo bot. im leaning into the DID part#once again not AS a joke. just a nod like yes... this is just DID but not really.. i know this and you r not crazy for thinking it
