neil newbon also mentioned that, besides the feral cat that visits his house, another inspiration for astarion's physicality was the harlequin mask from commedia dell'arte, which i find very funny given astarion's canonical feelings about clowns

Currently OBSESSED with evil x, my favorite tropes are:

1. Hes not evil. Hes trying to be, but he really sucks at it

2. Hes the scapegoat. The forgotten brother. Hes the one who always got blamed for everything and never had a support system. He became the thing they were scared of out of self defense, out of desperation. He never had a choice. He never wanted this. But at least hes the one getting hurt and blamed for everything, not his brother. (or, alternatively: hes so angry at his brother for getting everything evil x ever wanted to have)

Ok ok.

So I have a dumb little Genloss Au thing where Hetch was the one that founded, created Showfall Media, in memory of a far gone friend whose last wish was to entretain the masses. That dead friend being the person Hetch would twist into the image of the Founder, beacuase well, It was their idea, not Hetch's.

He's basically twisted the dream of that person into some sick torture games, just like he twisted said person into the Founder, a mock leader, a corpse strung up on a horse and set to run te battlefield to give hope to the troops.

GUYS I'VE OFFICIALLY LOST IT-

So. Awhile ago, I saw this post, right? Basically it just said that Sera and Sir Pentious' cards have very similar compositions, and that Seraphim, which is what Sera is, are often associated with serpents. Interesting, but could still be a coincidence, right?

So anyways I checked the reblogs and saw somebody say they should kiss. And now I'm insane.

Because like... the only thing we know really about Sir Pentious' potential story arc in the show is that he's gonna have a crush on one of the other characters. And the only thing confirmed about his sexuality(to my knowledge) is that he is attracted to women. We don't really have any way to know who his crush is, because there are a lot of women in Hazbin Hotel, but could still be noteworthy, right? And like... okay this is gonna sound like the most "trust me, bro" evidence I could possibly pull out of my ass at first but I just need you to hear me out here, okay? Sera's crown and Sir Pentious' hat have a lot of visual similarities. Here's a helpful diagram :)

Which like. Okay. Could literally be nothing, right? Except for two small things that I can't let go of: One, Sir Pentious' goggles + the v-shaped brim on his hat were added to his design AFTER he was given a more prominent role in the show-

(Pilot design, back when he was meant to be a one-off villain of the week vs current design as a member of the main cast)

And two, the Hellaverse shows kind of have a tendancy to use visuals in order to signify characters' relationships to eachother. It's also just a pretty popular form of symbolism as a whole tbh, but the Hellaverse has a lot of really good examples. Like, for instance, how Vaggie's new outfit is a lot closer to Charlie's color pallette than any of her previous designs, or this really good breakdown by @/raeynbowboi about the symbolism of hearts in Hazbin Hotel and how they pertain to Angel Dust/his relationships! It's from awhile ago so some of the info is a tad outdated, but overall I do think the analysis holds up. Meanwhile, in Helluva Boss, Moxxie and Millie have basically the same color pallette and they were the most functional relationship in the entire show before before Fizzmodeus came along. Which, speaking of those two...

See, I made this diagram because, after I pointed out the similarities between Sera and Sir Pentious' headgear to my dad and asked him if those kinds of similarities were a valid form of analysis(because I am but a humble highschooler that doesn't know everything about media analysis, and also I felt like I was losing my mind-), my dad said that I should look at the creator's(Vivziepop's) other works to see if couples having similar motifs was a recurring theme. So obviously, I picked my favorite couple in either show and disected their designs for every little detail that could maybe possibly be an intentional parallel. And while some of it is kind of iffy, like Fizz's limbs being the same kind of blue as Ozzie's tufts could just be a way to show that Ozzie made them, or both of them having uh, two things sticking off of their head(that one's definitely a reach-), I think stuff like both of them having hearts as a recurring detail in their designs or having lITERALLY THE SAME EYE COLOR??? Are pretty good evidence that Viv/the Hellaverse design team tend to use visuals to signify characters relationships.

ALSO!!!! If the Fallen Angel Vaggie theory ends up being true, there could be some interesting parallels to draw between Chaggie and Sera/Sir Pentious! Something about like... demon royalty/random angel vs angel royalty/random demon. Could be used to draw parallels between how the two societies treat that kind of thing idk.

So, now that all the meta evidence is out of the way, we can get down to what really matters: would these two work as a couple? Do their personalities mesh well togther? And the answer to that is!

IM SORRY FOR USING THE GIF IT WAS A GOOD JOKE IN MY HEAD BUT TYPING THIS OUT IDK IF IT'S ACTUALLY FUNNY-

But in all seriousness, I don't actually know. We just... haven't seen enough of Sera to know for sure. In fact, this whole theory is based off of small details that definitely add up to SOMETHING, but could very well be pieces to some very different puzzles that I'm trying to shove together because somebody jokingly suggested that they would fit. Like, the parallels really COULD mean something, and it COULD have something to do with Sir Pentious having a crush on another character, but like. There could also be a million other answers to both of those questions, y'know? I also have a tendancy to make wild conspiracy theories about genuinely inconsequential details... I almost never talk about them publically, but still. Though I will say, based off of Sera's description in the leaks, I could definitely see a world where she bounces off of Sir Pentious pretty well. Her description in the leaks very much gave me uh... Isabela cover of Surface Pressure vibes, y'know? Shit that is- that is a weird way to describe that but most people on here have seen Encanto right? Y'all get it? And Sir Pentious is both a Victorian Gentleman Type and completely unhinged. Like... idk there's something there. I could maybe see it working. But at the end of the day, it's just too early to tell.

That being said I WILL be trying to pump out some fanart of these two before the actual show comes out and crushes my crackshipping dreams. Also their ship name is either SeraPentious or PentSera I can't decide.

Edit: Wait a second... SeraPent. Serpent. PUN!!!!!!!!!! Okay I think I'm going with SeraPent-

Pardon this extremely tired ramble, but...

Isn't basically any MLM ship in MH just some variation and combination of the traits in toxic doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi?

Like... let's see:

Jam: Doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

(can also be toxic depending on take. Don't hate me for saying this. Don't hate me for saying this.)

Brim: Doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

(can also be toxic depending on take. Don't hate me for saying this. Don't hate me for saying this.)

Bray: Doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

Timlex: Toxic doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

Jaylex: Toxic doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

Brilex: Toxic doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

Poly w/ all the guys: Toxic VERY doomed men-in-their-20s yaoi

(I hate marking all Alex ships as toxic... but if we're going purely off of story and assuming the relationships persevere into the Slender Sickness thing... Holy fuck it's gonna get bad. Once those delusions and madness stuffs start kicking in the cuteness is killed *unfortunately* and so is at least one of them *depending on ship*

Also I marked all of the Tim ones w/o Alex as "can be toxic" just because of the way we see Tim's dynamic with the others play out. It would primarily cause issues in the stability and trust levels of the relationship because of the way the story goes. The sickness happens, the tapes, oh no! Tim looks evil, etc etc... everyone keeps stealing Tim's meds- etc etc.

Honestly... all of them could be marked with the "toxic" label because of the nature of the MH canon... like, they all really don't get along past a certain point... so I don't imagine relationships that are romantic would be much better at persevering in that scenario, either...)

Like... I'm talking about if we're being 100% true to canon events. No "Oh this is before this" or "this is a different storyline"

Does this make sense?

I can't tell if I make sense...

(Also, I hope this is obvious, but NO HATE to ANY shippers of these ships. I apologize if it comes off as hate. I do not mean it in a bad way, simply that by the nature of the MH canon, the ships are almost always stuck being doomed and / or toxic.)

Well... at least that's one thing that bonds us... no matter what we ship, it's always doomed. We are united by doom.

*cause like??? basically everyone fucking dies??? what the fuck??! no wonder we as a fandom occasionally make cute ship stuff! because we don't get cuteness! we just get madness and doom! fuck the doom, we make them make out sloppy. fuck yeah.*

I got so used to seeing bland and forced straight couples and much more complex and well written queer ships that now whenever I see a good quality straight ship my mind just goes "hmm gay"

[shxxmisafreak]

tumblr can’t make me tag my posts no matter how hard they flop . hmm . except maybe this one wait a minute let me cook

[the-girl-with-too-many-ideas]

Does anyone else get the feeling that at their core, all of mxtx's works are about cycles of abuses.

[nightthinker-08]

find it funny that I put 90% of my actual thoughts on the tags, not on the text part of the posts

Sleep-deprived NLW reactions part two be upon thee @raphaelesbian

“Were you raised in a barn.” Yeah, he probably was. Ah this entire text chain, gremlins.

Raph and Leo don’t drive each other nutso challenge: impossible. Love these two so much oh my gosh. One day they will figure out how communication works probably.

The fact that Karai seems so ‘normal’ is incredibly concerning if the Shredder wants to try and trick them at some point.

Oh gosh the cameras. They’re all used to it being Raph they’re watching out for the way they all relax because he’s there just- augh. Raph not entirely getting why they’d want to keep an eye on Karai because he was the one on the other side before too hoo boy. He wants to just jump in and fix it since he understands Karai’s side of this, but his brothers don’t want to repeatedly confront her like with Raph so they’re much more hesitant to act. Raph’s frustration is completely understandable and so is his brothers’ fear of making the same mistakes again and I am in pain.

Oh fucking hell what’s in the box YUP LOVELY GOOD MHM. Uh- hey children- kiddos your brother’s checked the fuck out over there you should probably check on him? Raph shutting down on them isn’t going to help bud-

Whoop here’s Karai time for everything to get much worse. Raph’s brothers immediately going into protect mode when he’s frozen my heart I can’t- the Shredder is pissed Raph got away isn’t he, holy shit.

Oof, both Raph and Leo are technically right to some extent here. They really can’t just keep Raph in the lair, but waking up to not even a text letting them know he was going to be with Casey would have been freaky. They’re all so traumatized AND THEY’RE BABIES FUCK-

Why does he still have the tekkō-kagi why did no-one take that from him that is nOT GOOD. TAKE THE WEAPON THAT THE KID KEEPS STARING AT AWAY FROM HIM PLEASE.

I’m confused by my own Tumblr feed. What is even happening XD I take an accidental hiatus and completely forgot just how chaotic Tumblr is (how did I even forget that! The chaos is fun)

I expected more Genshin stuff, but no I’m seeing a lot of Minecraft YouTubers (specifically Hermitcraft. No complaints I’m just confused as to why there’s more than the Genshin stuff when most people I follow and the tags I follow are Genshin related XD)

There’s also the random Danny Phantom stuff (I know exactly who is causing that to appear) And the random HSR stuff

No, the part that has me the most confused is what happened to having the DnD posts show up on my feed XD Apparently I need to hunt down more dnd blogs or dnd related tags to get the dnd stuff to start showing up again XD
