how did kuvira become the great uniter?

The Great Uniter—a title that was once revered by many, now feared by many; it was a title that wasn’t given to her by the world leaders to add some flair nor was it something she decided to call herself from the very moment she stepped out of Zaofu. Kuvira’s reasoning for leaving Zaofu wasn’t for power, but she had the power to do something while knowing choosing not to do anything would make you just as bad the Earth Queen and the Red Lotus who were major factor points in all the chaos that was running rampant throughout the Earth Kingdom. She could no longer sit by and watch things literally go up in flames, choosing to save those who don’t have the power to save themselves and it is selfish to look the other way.

It is why she left Zaofu, along with a handful of people who shared similar views. She no longer cares what Suyin thinks because she’s someone with the power and status to do away the damage, someone who always talked big about how much she hate the monarchy but never once did anything. The respect she had for Suyin was no more.

After Kuvira stabilized Ba Sing Se, where driving out remaining agents of the Red Lotus and stabilizing the capital took months, her next plan of action was to travel to another place that may need her help before she was eventually approached by the world leaders who had heard what she had down, offering her the position Suyin refused to take. Kuvira accepted of course, with all the newly found resources in her hands, she can do so much more to help all those that are in need. Though, she has also been tasked to unite the Earth Kingdom with a project that became known as the unification campaign; that plan has never been part of her cause, but it was a task she accepted as well since the Earth Kingdom have always been divided and perhaps what her nation always needed was to be united as one. Perhaps, then and there, they can finally take the first step to a brighter future.

Words of her actions quickly spread where she, at first, became known as “the woman with the piercing eyes and fearsome eyebrows.” by many who crossed her way but not many were convinced at first, after all, she was an experience young woman who never saw real battle; not to mention she was Suyin’s protégé who lived most of her life in Zaofu, safe under the metal domes while the rest of the Earth Kingdom suffers every day and living in the fear of roaming bandits. Kuvira held her head up high every time she hears those words, despite the fact that she lived her earlier years in poverty and in a village that no longer exists.

The people’s views of her changed when she moved down to Omashu, joining forces with others and leading them all to takedown a tyrannical king that’d become paranoid over the years where he started to lock his own people up who spoke out against him or putting them to death without a trial. Once the king has been permanently removed and liberating Omashu, Kuvira earned the people’s respect and the city-state became one of her biggest backers.

By the end of the first year of the unification campaign, Kuvira’s deeds continued to spread and all those who doubted her began following her behind once her success continued to grow. She earned the people’s respect and loyalties where many proudly waved her banner and sang her name in songs which is where the title “The Great Uniter” came to be. And it was a name she held with great pride for it was - is - one of the greatest gift she had ever received.

Finished the megan phelps roper autobio a few days ago. Left me with some thoughts.

The first thing to say is that it was very well written and interesting, especially earlier on pre-exodus, in its portrayal of the wbc. There was smth especially captivating about how she described what was essentially a soft coup within the church transforming it from a consensus-run collective to a formalised patriarchal gerontocracy—its worth reading if for no other reason than to get an insiders visceral feeling of what its like to live in that kind of an activist/religious community from birth

There is this tone the book adopts, tho, especially towards the end, which is obviously absolutely integral to its appeal but nevertheless offputting to me. Its a sort of contrite attitude, portraying her decision to leave and denounce the church as an act of penance for the vile crime against humanity of living a life of Hate. Again, clearly the book wouldnt sell without that line, its the essence of her entire personal brand as an author and speaker (the high market value of which—tho she ofc does not say this in print—must have featured at least somewhat in her decision to leave, if by no other means than relieving certain anxieties about her ability to sustain herself afterward). So its not surprising she would put it so front and centre.

But approaching this penitence objectively it just seems... kind of misplaced? Not that i have anything against public acts of apology and grovelling! But, frankly, its hard to read the account and not conclude she is much more of a victim than anyone she protested or besmirched into hurt feelings. Partly by her family in the form of the inevitable abuse attendant upon being raised in that kind of insular fortress community—tho she does a good job not lazily smearing them as some kind of sadistic cult, part of why i thought her description was so interesting and insightful. But also by counterprotesters and others riled up by her churchs activism: she describes their having faced sexual harassment, physical intimidation and violence, even arson in the face of what were clearly and pointedly constitutionally protected exercises of free speech. All of the former manifestly worse than the latter. Often with cops looking the other way! In a just world these targets of her "hate" would have a lot more apologising to do to her than the other way around

The book even caused me to reconsider the degree of my disgust with their most notorious practice: funeral picketing. Not having followed the pickets at the time super closely, i had interpreted them reflexively as incursions (perhaps constitutionally protected, but still unwarranted) on private family grief, turning what would be a personal act of mourning into a spectacle of vitriol and political grandstanding both ways. So i was surprised to hear the familys official statement on the matter:

So long as the families, military, media, veterans groups, and community-at-large, use funerals or memorial services of dead soldiers as platforms for political patriotic pep rallies, we will continue to picket those pep rallies. If they put the flags down and go home, we’ll go home. Not before then.

This seems basically entirely levelheaded, aside from my disagreement with the object level views they were voicing at these events. Privacy is a two-way street: if you are going to turn yr sons funeral into a patriotic circus, you cant fairly complain about ppl returning fire with a concurrent anti-patriotic circus. No heat, no kitchen. I suspect the actual operative principle in many ppls minds is that it doesnt alter the sacrosanct private character of the funeral to engage in socially normative politicising, but socially abnormal politicising crosses the line. Which is just clearly a grotesque and inherently conservative (derogatory) unprincipled distinction to draw

Speaking of which: its sort of tricky to place the church as conservative/rightwing or liberal/leftwing at all. Even setting aside fred phelps earlier and very laudable struggle against institutional racism. In some sense they were part of the rightwing backlash to gains in gay rights, but not in a way that dovetailed with any serious rightwing political projects on that front. They were the paradigmatic doomers: there was no point engaging in legal efforts to stem the marriage tide, say, bc the american experiment as a whole had incurred gods wrath and was living on borrowed time. To the extent they did have any significant legal impact, it was overwhelmingly positive: they were the ones that brought us snyder v phelps, a heroic win for freedom of speech. They remind me as much as anything of a certain kind of maoist sect, like revcom, not just in style but in content (fervent anti-americanism, racial equality, confidence that The End Is Nigh and the only serious question is how to respond to this imminent demise of the existing order, free speech fundsmentalism clearly for instrumental reasons joined with strict internal censorship, even a version of "no investigation, no right to speak!" inculcated from early childhood)

I think one of my first ever posts on my old blog was on this topic with a nascent, less informed version of the views im expressing here. Some forms of freezepeach contrarianism are just part of my unchanging core ig

'todoroki doesnt even want to be a hero, thats just something endeavor forced him into/pushed onto him'

did??? we all??? watch??? the same show????

todoroki openly antagonises Endeavor, to his face, numerous times 

even as a literal toddler he would stand up to endeavor, yelling at him to not hurt rei, and after rei pours the hot water on his face, todoroki told endeavor ‘it’s your fault she hurt me’ 

he slaps his hand away after the provisional licence remedial training, and in the endeavor agency arc he tells him to ‘stop acting like my dad in front of my friends’ 

just in general his manner of speaking to Endeavor is very disrespectful and outwardly aggressive in japanese

basically, hes not afraid of pissng off his dad, at all, even in public

so if todoroki truly didnt want to be a hero, what gives you the impression that he wouldnt just straight up refuse to go to UA, or at least do everything within his power to fail his classes/get expelled??

the whole point of his fight with midoriya at the sports festival is todoroki accepting himself and that his power is his own, not endeavor's, and that its okay for him to become a hero using it

literally what does todoroki say after midoriya yells 'its your power isnt it?!' at him? in that moment where himself admits that he forgot all about endeavor and wasnt thinking about him at all??? he says 'I want to be a hero too'

look i get why this take is popular, lots of people can relate to todoroki in that they have shitty/abusive parents who forced them into a career path or life style they dont wanna do

and so obviously they project those feelings of discontent and resentment back onto todoroki

but in the literal canonical text of bnha, his character aspires to be a great hero just like midoriya and bakugou

if heroics truly was 100% something that endeavor just forced onto him, why did todoroki go to help midoriya and iida in hosu? why did he follow midoriya and bakugou at jaku? why did, along with kirishima, he approach yaoyorozu to get a nomu tracker off of her after bakugou was kidnapped and say that he was going to make a rescue attempt whether or not midoriya or anyone else joined him? why did he run in to try to save all might from the nomu at USJ?

like???? i dont have anything against people having differing interepretations of a character or headcanons from me, ofc different ppl will read the same thing differently

but this is a take that is just so extremely the opposite of todoroki's canonical characterisation it baffles me that its so common??

did we all miss the part where he was deeply frustrated with himself for failing he provisional liscence exam? or where he decided that he needed to be the one to stop dabi?? the fact that he carries first aid supplies in his hero costume so he can better help people?? or how he suggested a concert for the school festival because he thought itd be a good idea to do something 'fun' and 'stress relieving' for the other students at UA???

idk, ofc at the end of the day ppl can headcanon what they like and everyones interpretations are valid and none of this actually causes any harm to anybody etcetera etcetera, art is subjective and all that

(like this is benign fandom bullshit for a mediorce shounen battle series, im self aware that none of this actually matters)

but idk im just still confused as to how ppl seem to miss the point so fuckin badly with todoroki's character

[evelili]

OKAY SO I JUST FINISHED ACT 3 AND HOLY SHIT I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS AND WORDS FAIL ME BECAUSE HOT DAMN MY BRAIN THINKS FASTER THAN IT CAN COMPREHEND A LOT OF THE TIME SO I'LL TRY MY BEST TO GET ALL MY THOUGHTS OUT. Fair warning, this might be very, very long. So for starters, the way Chapter 11 Started with memories which, at first didn't make it obvious we were seeing Sunset's Memories was done absolutely fantastically. Like, it was a wonderful build up cause at first I didn't even question it, but then the moment she broke in I realized it couldn't have been Twilight's, and then as the chapter progressed it was more and more clear and it was so wonderfully executed and knowing my guess was right as I read got me so pumped up to see where everything went. AND THEN WITH THE REVEAL OF CELESTIA REMOVING TWILIGHT'S MEMORIES OF ████ WAS SO WELL HANDLED! Like, I thought it was ████ at first, but then my own paranoia had me second guessing but then I was right and it was incredible and I was so curious to see what happened to her. AND THEN CHAPTER 12 INSTANTLY EXPLAINING IT AND GOING INTO DETAIL OF WHAT HAPPENED TO HER BROKE MY HEART! And just knowing that ████ is still gone (I have yet to finish the Epilogue so I dunno if that changes) hurts still! BUT THE WHOLE BUILD UP TO EVERYONE BECOMING FRIENDS AND USING HARMONY TO SAVE SUNSET AND THE WHOLE THING AND SORRY THE EXCITEMENT IS STILL RUSHING THROUGH ME!! Honest to god this has been such a wonderful thing to read, and apologies I cannot comprehend coherent words at the moment. But all and all, The Twilight Effect has been one of my favourite reads ever, and I look forward to giving you my (hopefully coherent) full thoughts after the epilogue!

so i may or may not have gone overboard and drawn smth for this that deserves to get its own post, pls look forward to that lol

also i guess this is spoilers? idc at this point, ill spoil the whole fic if it gets ppl interested in reading it lollll i wish tumblr had a spoiler filter like twt or smth, oh well

but yeh!! c11 is i think my fav chapter in the whole fic, i loveeee playing with concepts u can only do w the written word (kinda like pinkies chapter in a way) and its so fun to “plot twist” in a way that readers slowly figure whats happening before the characters do, so it’s like holding your breath waiting for them to finally figure it out xd

and c12 was the “big reveal”, which im still super happy how it turned out! i got to play w diff mediums for storytelling a bit w “whitespace” (technically black lol) and using a comic instead of written word, which was a lot of fun :D figuring out exactly what happened in the past between celestia, twi, nd Someone was always going to b the “climax” of c12, and it was such a relief to finally get there in the end, as well as figure out a way to “show, not tell” the whole thing to still make it interesting

im so glad it was an impactful finale! and ofc, thank u so much for reading and all ur lovely comments, i still have ur epilogue comment in my box that ill save to answer this weekend haha dw, im saving it close to my heart for now!

[chenford77]

Chenford/Lucy analytic rant at 4 AM

Long rant, I apologise in advance if u disagree or dont care because u are so fanatically addicted to chenford u cant see the forest for the trees or are in such denial u refuse to aknowledge what is right in front of ur nose. Hope is good, I have it too, and I pray for them, and will wait and see, and give it the benefit of the doubt.

But I will not be silent, because it offends ur comfort show, which btw is also mine. I dare say I love chenford more than anyone and they are all I think about since finding the show 5 months ago after rewatching Dark Matter for the third time.

If u dont like 'negativity' which is how s6 actually went down, and prefer to remain in denial and not aknowledge what we have been shown in all of s6 so far, what Alexi has said in interviews, what Alexi has done in previous work that broke up Castle's beloved couple too, then just ignore it pls.

I grow tired of seing all ur twitter posts about wanting to block posts about anything negative about chenford and wanting to block those ppl. Do it! It doesnt make it less true, and we are hurting JUST AS MUCH as u are, probably more, because we see it and u prefer not to. Which will only lead to an even bigger heartbreak in the end, or worse. Aknowledge it, dont ignore it.

You might want to block all the posts and comments saying all the bad about what happened and what Alexi did to chenford, and us, and not want to hear anything opposing ur strong belief that because chenford sat in a car together or Tim tells Lucy he will be kind to her back which in ur eyes 500% mean THEY ARE SO BACK TOGETHER OMG OMG THEY ALMOST KISSED OMG OMG. Sry but I think a lot of us want to just do the same by now, because that shit hurts to see and its clear u dont get them from a mature and real point of view.(oh to be young and in love again)

Thats not what happened, and we are doing chenford, expecially Lucy, and dishonour by pretending otherwise, in the name of hope.

Hope is good, I have it too and hope Im wrong in some things, but s6 spoke a lot of truths, and everything I predicted has come true so far, in the show and behind the scenes that cant be ignored and deserve to be recognised so that Alexi hopefully fix it all in s7 and onwards, instead of repeating D.B and Weiss' GoT fuckup or continue with the woke hollywoods 'Hitchhikers guide how to create the biggest gasp and cause the most hurt, and most importantly Confusion and Inconsistancy'.

There are real ppl with feelings behind the screens, pls remember that. Goes for both sides!

I mean no hurt or disrespect to anyone, but dont invalidate mine, or half the fandoms ' feelings and views on what really happened and why its happening pls because u wish to not see what happened because it hurts.

It does hurt, Im depressed and know what its like better than anyone and have been through a LOT in real life and have seen a lot of fandom couples get killed off or break apart. So I know what I see when I see it!

Every post I see about 'they are SO bk together omg they almost kissed, omg Tims 'kindness' line was sooo sweet and such a love declaration', I scroll past, fast. I dont want to see it, That is MY comfort zone u just stepped on, pls see both sides :)

Dont make public posts but then hate on any 'negative' comments u get, because u prefer to remain in ur happy place. All u do it hurt half the fandom that does not agree with u and split us up. This goes both ways, dont be mean just to be mean, let them be happy and positive unless its seomthing that really needs attention. Alr most dont bother anymore because u just dont seem to want to admit what u really saw and what Alexi's INTENTIONS were. Its very hurtful tbh and all it does is make ppl stop voicing their oppinions, both good and bad. Ofc downright rude and mean posts and comments should be removed, but pls dont make public posts if u dont want honest oppinions, or expect newcomers to know u dont want it if they dont know u.

You might feel hurt by our take on things, but we feel the same about urs. You might want to remain positive, great so do I, but I also guard my heart and I dont ignore what is obvious or stay silent so our side dont get heard too. By not voicing it and AKNOWLEDGING it, Alexi gets a free pass for future seasons repeat performance. And thats not ok!

It might be that Alexi do a 360 for the fun of it and fix it all in s7 and prove us 'nonbelievers' wrong, but what we saw in s6 was NOT what the denial and comfort zoners saw. Its just not. Perhaps on the surface but not beneath where it matters.

By ignoring what we saw in s6 u disrespect and devalue everything that came b4, as well as chenford.

We can be in our happy place and still pretend and hope for the best, but dont ignore it or say it didnt happen when it did. Its ok to want to be in ur happy place and keep our comfort show intact, I still am and have despite seing what is there for the eyes to behold. But by not aknowledging it and wanting to shut down every negative or opposing oppinion, u help ensure an even greater heartbreak later on if they choose to take that turn which is very likely. because u mislead and essentialy create false hope, when instead it should be rephrased into posible outcome instead of plausible deniability.

That doesnt mean u should hack down every denial post living in pretend land, dont be mean, let them have their happyplace and hope, I want it too, but dont make public posts saying 'omg almost kissed' and then get mad if we remind u that no, they really didnt. It doesnt work that way, it just makes it worse tbh.

My feelings based on all the various twitter and tumblr posts since the finale, from no particular individual but all chenford tags that I payed notice to and have seen others pay notice to who have stopped speaken up because u yell at us to shut up in 5 gifs daily.

Not validating our take and what really happened is the same as what Tim has been doing all s6, not validating and respecting Lucy.

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Tim is no longer our Tim and has been disrespectful, careless, indifferent and and even mean to Lucy in s6. Something we NEVER would have seen in previous seasons. It is, as Northsky7 wrote, completely inconsistant and out of character for Tim what he has said and done in s6. NO his mental health and 'growth' excuse has nothing to do with this, its just how Alexi wanted to write it just because he can and think we want drama and that Lucy should be 'challenged', and to head us into a 'will they wont they' era of pining, which no chenford fan said they wanted After they got together, finally, after 5 years. That we miss the pining era doesnt = lets break them apart and start over lol. I mean..

I too dont give a fart about how much 'kindness' Tim will give her in s7 , if he cant mature, respect Lucy, truly apologise for the massive hurt he caused her cause without still having talked to her, it matters not. I will never like Tim the way I did b4 after what they made him do. I too have a very hard time picturing how they will make this right again, and shallow 'kindness' lines or Lucy saying 'water under the bridge lets move on' will NOT count. I will dislike him more and more for each episode of silence. I alr dislike Nyla, John and Angela more and more for each episode in s6, for being so uncharactaristically mean and indifferent and unsupportive to Lucy. Which still hasnt been aknowledged, and Lucy continues to be used as a doormat for the sake of Tims 'mental health growth'. Mel said somewhere that Lucy has other friends outside of work to lean on also in defense of this. Does she?? Because we havent seen them. We havent seen anyone support her and be there for her in the entire s6. If we dont SEE it, it didnt happen. Even what Grey said to her when they wrote together was just more icing on the cake tbh. He basically just said 'yeah go tell that to Tim instead wont u'. What?!? Again, was that it?? Thats not being supportive either, its a poorly written script line to further step on Lucy and not agree with and support her feelings. But the fandom loved it, sucked it up raw like it was mothers milk straight from the tit.

In all previous seasons the team has been there for each other, we have SEEN it, on work and off work.

We didnt see a single scene with anyone supporting, truly supporting, Lucy that season, just for the fun of it it seems, Alexi? Lets destroy the most emotianal and empathetic character in the show just to create tension and drama cause thats what the generic audience like to see? Said no one, ever.

Remember Nolan stopping by after Celina moved in? Again, 0 support from him, he basically just rolled his eyes and didnt seem to care. This was SO out of character for Nolan. In all previous seasons he would be there for her 100%, hug her, talk to her. And Angela calling her about Mad Dogs death? How Lucy said, in almost utter disbelief, that Angela was calling her. Her? Why on earth would Angela be calling Lucy, sure that makes sense, its not like they are friends and have gone out b4, so why on earth would Angela be calling Lucy?Making it sound like its not a normal thing to do ever. It just further isolate Lucy and they want us to see, to FEEL he pain and that she is alone, because thats what she is now.

I am close to the point of not caring about Nyla, John and Angela, almost hating them tbh, because we havent seen any aknowledgement of how and why they treated her like that, and it seems to just all be water under the bridge and she brushed it off and moved on. And I used to love them so much.

When she in no way should have brushed it off, it was mean, and downright cruel. But they want to dehumanise and desentisize Lucy because she cares too much, is too empathetic and is the shows real star, not Fillian, and that just wont do!

Remember Angela and Nylas fun phone scene? Where normally I would have laughed about it and felt good?

I didnt. All I did was say out loud 'are u kidding me'.

The elevator scene after Lucy and Tim hugs and they step out to be greeted by Angela and Nyla, who says they need her for a case. No asking, no 'can u pls help us' no it was a 'we are detectives now so we rule over u come here and do our bidding low human'.

Then when Lucy who gives it her all not just on working hours but also off, had set up numerous identities for UC work that took a long time, to use one for the op, this could have been a superb time for Nyla and Angela to aknowledge her good work and praise her, just a little bit. Just a tiny bit, we dont ask for much tbh!

The old Nyla pre s6 would have said something there.

But it was skipped over, like so many other important 'should have been' scenes and lines because the season was so short, and they instead wanted to focus on the most boring couple (sry but its true) Bailey and John and they very sudden and rushed kid sprout storyline that took up time that should have been spent on more important stuff, like sayd, perhaps a short scene of Tim talking to his therapist so we can SEE his process?

Alexi: And so I think we just need to keep challenging her and and navigating her profesional and personal life, while he what he does what hes got to do .

Okay? Why does she needs to be challenged exactly? Does it have to be done like it was done, tearing her down like that, and us with it? No, it really didnt. You can challenge her without destroying her entire character ffs.

Alexi: And then also just, how do they find their way back to each other

You tell me, I legit cant see it anymore unless u unfuck Tims charcter ASAP, and I mean in the first episode in s7, it doesnt have to take longer for Tim to apologize, show us he means it, show us therapy scene and then him falling to his fucking knees to beg for her forgiveness. Nothing less will suffice by now tbh!

Eric was right tho when he said Tim needs help, and his story needs more bkground, he absolutely does. But not this way, not while simultaniously destroying his character by making him inconsistant, disrespectfull, indifferent, and UNkind.

It was so very badly executed and poorly written, I just cant get over how anyone can think this was wholesome and done well. Sadly it dont seem like u can hire a new writer and Alexi runs the show, but I suppose we can hope the rest of the team listens and demands he steps up, and stop hurting his fanbase.

No personal hate, only professionally.

Instead they also toss in 15 new bad guys on a mission that made no sense, that I could not follow and did not give a flying squirrel about tbh. Because it didnt make sense, and because the time should have been spent on chenfords process instead. Even if I wasnt a chenford fan I would say the same.

Tims bday cart and the song fixed it a little, made him look like he felt bad. But I think mainly because the fandom called it out and wanted Kojo back and Lucys bday stuff. But it was so left and right, I got a whiplash from trying to keep up with their choices in each episode that keep contradicting what they have previous said, done and felt.

Even their dance scene early in after they made up and Lucy tells Tim she loves him, I didnt like it. Unpopular oppinion Im sure, but I didnt like it. It felt off.

It felt off, shallow, the editing was cut badly and didnt clip in well, and it just really felt superficial and not REAL, and was all so RUSHED, with the way they said it, and the lines they gave us.

Tim loves her, no doubt about it. But enough I wonder now too, because u just cant do what hes done, and still seem to be doing after they broke up without talking to her, tell her all she needs to know, let her help him and man up and actively seek therapy, and not just a second after Grey tells him he needs to fix it or he will be moved to another station. Tim needs to reliase he loves her and RESPECTS her, and fast, or they will loose half the fanbase and there will be no s8!

That therapy with London also doesnt really count, it made it look like a last minute forced descision from Tim because he was ordered to, when he in all ways should have sought that out himself by that point. Or we should have seen him 'break down' instead of just being indifferent?!?

Then in the car in the finale, after everything they have been through together, after he hurt her like that and knows she wants to talk about it, after he has been to therapy with London and hopefully grown up a little bit more and since he says she did help him realise some things, the one line he can give her when she asks him if he told her anything about Lucy, is that shes a 'freak in the sheets'. I mean, what?!? Did he seriously just further prove he hasnt learned anything after the breakup, still cant be honest with her and tell her maybe something like 'yeah that u are amazing and have been trying to help me and blablabla', AND again just seem to joke around the serious issue and seeming indifferent, again, and just calls her a 'freak in the sheets' ?!?

I wanted to SLAP him for that. And I love Tim, and Lucy, so that was just a slap in my own face instead tbh! :( Not only does that sexualise her and all of the above I just wrote, but its so out of character and RUDE considering their situation and feelings. Just to please the fanfiction fandom with that line? For all the E and M rated fics? Thats not what we want! Sure it would have been a nice bonus but not as the main story line. We want Tim to grow some balls and TALK TO HER, not further invalidate her feelings by continuing to ignore them and give her a bullcrab line about 'kindness'.

And Lucy saying 'u dont have to do this', eh what, excuse me?? Yes he does? Yes he fucking so does? All is by gones now or what? Its ok what he did? No its fucking not grr. Dont disregard him needed to talk to her and explain himself just because time has passed omg, that wont work in the long run. Arent Lucy a psych major, with 2 therapists for parents?? It hasnt come in handy so far.

This show can do 20 seasons easily! Its better than all the other similar shows, has only great memorable and fun characters and, despite the really poor writing which is full of plotholes and flawed timelines, it has good stories and archways too, that is when they dont push some big conspiracy plot thats rushed through in 2 episodes with so many new characters we have no clue is, then to end.

But it needs less plotholes and they need to make baylan more interesting and fix chenford. And for gods sake stop posing Nolan as a superhero so much, its too much and overly done by now its getting annoying to watch and ruins his character!

Like that finale where he toppled some FBI dude over and ran off, with none of said FBI dudes tried to stop him, despite being in clear violation of 911 laws and putting everything at risk and proving he hasnt learned anything in the past years about recklessness? Bro… Pls.. Stop.

I legit skipped that part, I facepalmed myself in real life and zipped ahead, it was annoying to watch, then it made me sad because how the writers keep ruining it all.

And give Bailey less screentime, even Luna barely has any and she is far better overall?Also isnt she a firefighter? Which morphed into her being some top emergency ambulance doctor out on every single scene more or less? Huh?

And yes the writing IS bad, its very poor writing. But we still love it, for the most part and will continue to watch because its great in so many ways, its my favourite show in a long time.

The first 2 seasons were amazing, the best!

Season 3 was a huge woke propeganda focussed bs, but chenford was great at least.

From there is went downhill, but still with so many great scenes and chenford ofc. But overall, it gets worse and worse and s6 I pretend never existed. I dont even go bk and rewatch the episodes, hardly even the chenford ones cause it was so broken and uncharactaristic. It just hurts to watch.

But we only continue to watch if they correct course, stop creating death and gore (GoT reference), confusion and drama for the sake of death and gore, confusion and drama. We also dont like the term 'shock effect' very much, its a rude word. We also dont want u to depict real relationships that struggle, used as excuse to create whatever the fuck s6 was. Or anything else so its politically corrrect and woke enough, keep that shit out of our comfort shows.

I have so much more but Im on my way to bed and just wanted this off my chest.

Sry for ranting at 4 AM but half the fandom is hurting, maybe worse, and nothing, NOTHING Alexi or the rest of the cast has said so far has made >me< feel any sense of relief and real hope for chenford so far. Especially not Alexis seemingly careless take on what we want and how he completely torn down the best characters in the show.

I say careless because thats what they are. Remember the pregnancy test image they chose to release for promo pic? Or the scene where Tim 'proposed' and didnt seem to see what he did there that hurt Lucy as well? How can Tim be so careless there as well, it didnt make sense for him. But they chose to do this to fool us with false hope, knowing full well how it turned out.I t was a hurtfull mockery when u look back on it tbh.

I want a s7 too, as many as they will give us as long as chenford is there. But NOT if its gonna be another mocking bullying shitfest like s6 was with deteriorating writing, then I rather go without and remember the first 5 seasons and go to fancfiction from there.

PS Nyla has information on her computer stored for 5 years that could lock Monica up for good. Just, u know, saying, in case the writers forgot..

Hello there. New follower here... I just saw your Law fic for your 555 milestone event and it was amazing. The next work of yours I read was also amazing. Your writing is superb and I can't wait to read your other works.

I wanted to congratulate you on 555+ followers, so, congrats! The event you put together looks like a lot of fun; I would like to make a request for it, but when I click on the rules link it brings me to your home page, so apologies if I'm doing it wrong. Call me out if I've done something incorrectly.

Could I please order a parfait, lollipop, and glazed donut with caramel and Poppy seeds with either Trafalgar Law or Suguru Geto (idk if you write for the latter, but either one is great). Thank you kindly for considering and congrats again :)

hi & welcome! ૮₍ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ₎ა ꕤ i'm rly happy you enjoy my work, i'm always striving to write immersive pieces for everyone to engage with! i chose geto for this one, since i haven't written a fic for him yet, so i hope i did him justice 😊 thanks so much for requesting 💛 also i meant to say this like last week, but thank you for letting me know about my rules link. i'm such an old-school tumblr user, i forget most ppl use the app so those links work best on desktop but i fixed everything now (i think lmao) but no you're fine! i had so much fun writing this.

3.3k words (i know, i got carried away), fem reader, smut + hurt/comfort, nsfw, 18+, mdni; reader has an established friendship w. geto (through gojo, ofc); very angsty, idk what came over me but that's the life of a writer yk; there's fluff if you ignore all the angst and drama in the beginning; reader is feisty but geto is in2 it; feat. a bit of blood (not too much), brief mention of masturbation, a crummy ex-bf, alcohol, and balcony sex -- gojo sort of makes an appearance but not really.

“you are terrifying and strange and beautiful, someone not everyone knows how to love.” — warsan shire

a small vinyl record player sits in the back corner of your living room, a melancholic song on repeat, permeating the air, suffocating you to no end. the record keeps skipping, but you can’t be bothered to change it. crushed rose petals sit in the palm of your hand, your fist still clenched tightly, your nails tearing through the petals, a musky, sweet scent wafting in the air — but you don’t think about any of that. you’d torn at the roses as soon as you got inside of your apartment; your left hand is cut from the thorns, the blood dried, the wound barely noticeable, while your right ripped the rose off each stem.  fury sits in the pit of your stomach, bubbling menacingly as you continue to stare at the deep wine stain on the fluffy white rug in your living room.

a bottle of wine lays next to your feet, cold and solitary — like me, you tell yourself bitterly; you’ve yet to pick it up, fearing you’ll cause more damage by throwing it at the wall and knocking off the picture frames that hang neatly. you clench your teeth so hard your jaw aches, but you don’t feel it — how can you, when just hours prior you were told, very publicly, that you’re an insensitive, unfeeling, bitch.

your throat is raw from how much you yelled after that, your eyes sting from unshed tears — if you cry, he wins; if you cry, you’ll come off as weak; if you cry, then it means you cared more than you said you did. you made sure to laugh in his face loudly, to strategically flip your blown out hair over your shoulder, to smirk at his date before stealing a chocolate covered strawberry off her plate — fiancée, you remind yourself for the tenth time — before strutting off.

each step you took hurt more than the last, but you walked with confidence, your head held high, and took a cab back home. the roses were a gift from an admirer — the anonymous kind, someone who clearly knows you but you don’t know them. you feel bad for destroying them, feel bad for knocking over the wine after having a few glasses, and feel bad that you’re sitting alone, filled with emptiness and regret.

you grab your phone and call gojo satoru — a good friend with bad timing and even worse tact — it rings for a long time before going to voicemail; his voice is saccharine, annoyingly coy, and overall obnoxious. for some reason, it pisses you off. your anger comes to a boiling point and you lash out.

“first of all, you’re the absolute worst,” you say loudly, the words like ash on your tongue, guilt plaguing you as you glance around the room, eying the picture frames and various trinkets you collected with him over the year. you know it’s not gojo’s fault, he was looking out for you — he kept telling you to open your eyes, you just didn’t want to listen. you didn’t want to acknowledge that your boyfriend — now, ex-boyfriend — was cheating; but that’s not the story, now, is it?

he swore to you that you were his one and only, pledged his love more times than you could count, only to find out that you were actually the other woman in this equation — mistress, really — and you had no fucking idea. the truth sits in your chest, expands and then clamps tightly around your rib cage making it hard to breathe.

“you were right, satoru. so damn right, i’m so stupid, god.” you hang up after that, toss your phone onto the coffee table and stand up to stretch your legs. the rose petals fall from your hand and you sigh loudly, eyes glancing around at the mess you’ve made.

your heels lay abandoned by the front door and as you walk over to pick them up, the doorbell rings — loudly. a sigh coasts out of your mouth, and you call out, “i’m coming, damn!” because whoever’s at the door keeps ringing the damn bell. you forgot to lock the door earlier, so you yank it open, a scowl on your face, ready to curse whoever is interrupting your saturday night pityfest. when you realize who the stranger is, surprise takes hold of your face.

“suguru?” you blink, and blink, and blink. “what are you doing here?” any residual anger you have slowly seeps out of you in his presence. you’re not sure why, but he’s always had such a calming effect on you — something gojo likes to jokingly say is just the universe bringing two halves of a soul back together — you grip the door handle tightly, the memory of that conversation knocking into your chest repeatedly, a warmth spreading that you desperately try to snuff out.

“the one and only,” he says lightly, lips tilting upward in a slow, knowing smile. “you seem…,” he glances down at your left hand, notices the dried blood and frowns at the sight. “you need to clean that properly.” you open your mouth to tell him that it’s fine, that you’ll deal with it later, but geto is already making his way inside your apartment so you simply close the door behind him and lock it afterward.

you’re not sure why he rang the doorbell when both he and gojo have keys — in case of emergencies, gojo had said with a mischievous grin, twirling the key ring around his finger after he made the copies; you reluctantly let it slide, and while gojo tends to misuse the key, geto doesn’t — but you don’t question it. you rarely do when it comes to him. “it’s fine, really.” you’re the opposite of fine, but you do your best to put a brave face on, following after geto with light steps. “i’m capable of cleaning a tiny cut,” you huff when he ignores your words, moving swiftly into the bathroom as he rustles around the cabinet for your first aid kit.

“i’m well aware of your capabilities,” he glances over his shoulder at you before grabbing the small kit, “but everyone needs help every so often, right?” he doesn’t wait for you to answer, instead he motions for you to have a seat on the bathroom counter. you narrow your eyes but your night already spiraled hours ago, so you don’t see the harm in obliging him. geto takes a step back to give you room but crowds your space as soon as you hop on the counter. again, you realize, you can’t breathe; your face heats up and you swallow back a retort, unable to string words together properly as you shift to make yourself more comfortable.

geto is as unbothered as always, leaning forward to study you for a minute, dark eyes locked onto yours — expansive, startlingly clear despite, yet still elusive; you find yourself falling into them, drowning in its depths, perpetually shrouded in mystery — before blinking and releasing his invisible hold on you. inhaling deeply, you close your eyes and try to will your heart to stop beating so damn fast.

it’s not healthy, the way you easily allow him into your space, how quickly you’ve forgotten all your misfortunes; when his lips ghost along the curve of your ear, a shiver falls onto your spine, rippling and causing you to swallow hard. geto’s voice comes out softly, but his words ring in your ears loud enough to sober you up completely, stoking a small fire that you keep hidden deep inside of you, an infuriating ache traveling through you. “good girl, now let me see that hand.” he grins as you stumble over your words, fingers gently holding your hand as he checks for anything out of the ordinary. “care to explain?” he opens the kit and grabs an antiseptic wipe to clean off the blood.

your silence speaks volumes, but geto is patient, allowing you the space to speak your truth freely. you barely feel the sting when he presses down a little harder than necessary, but your lips part and words spill out of your mouth without restriction. “i…” you try your best to remember why exactly you grabbed the roses by the stem like that, “i was pissed off and the roses were right there.” geto clicks his tongue at you but doesn’t offer any scathing or chastising remarks.

“they were from satoru, actually,” he says while cleaning your wound; he’s gotten the blood off and brings your hand to the sink and holds it under running water. “he might be a little sad to know you destroyed them.” although, geto’s smile says otherwise; it’s hilarious to him. he told gojo not to get you the roses, but his best friend is wont to do as he pleases whenever his whims pass over him; gojo insisted that roses would make you feel better, but he knew if he signed the card, you’d throw them out immediately.

he was right.

“oh,” you look down at your hand, the one that ripped the petals to shreds, “not a big deal then.” your callous remark has geto’s shoulders shaking as he attempts to hold back a laugh; you eye him warily, but your lips twitch and you find yourself laughing right with him. it feels nice — freeing, even — and as he dries off your hand, you watch him work with precise, yet graceful movements. he handles you delicately, as if you’re too fragile for someone like him to touch, but you want to tell him that you can handle whatever it is he throws your way. the words die on your tongue, you swallow back your courage and allow cowardice to take over.

it only takes a few minutes, but he’s carefully applied ointment to your wound before wrapping it. you look at his handiwork, smiling to yourself as he washes his hands. “thanks.” your voice is quieter than usual, which has geto glancing at you out of the corner of his eyes. “i mean it, thank you.” his sudden presence was a welcomed sight.

“you’re welcome,” he takes a step back to really look at you, “satoru told me about…well, you know, so i came to check on you.” which was mostly the truth; he also just needed to see for himself if you were actually trying to get over your ex, or if you were going to go back to him just like you’ve done in the past.

“are you leaving already?” your question startles him and he does his best not to look too surprised.

“do you want me to?”

balling your hands into fists, you decide to take the plunge — to say the one thing you’ve been meaning to say since he stepped foot into your apartment. with a shake of your head, you look up at him, voice steady as you answer him. “no. stay.”

after ordering takeout and opening yet another bottle of wine, you both eat and drink your fill, laughing at various things — bad jokes, the terrible stain on your rug, the voicemail you left on gojo’s phone — and given how cool the weather was, you tug on his hand and lead him out to your balcony. you tell him the gritty truth — about how your ex tricked you, about how you caught him at your favorite restaurant, about how you knew something was off but didn’t want to admit it. he listens to all of that without much commentary, until he sees you grab the railing tightly.

it’s purely instinctual, he tells himself, the compulsion that suddenly takes hold of him; he wraps his arms around you snugly while standing behind you, his face nestled on the crook of your neck. you sigh and lean into his touch, and slowly let go of the railing. geto brushes his lips against the length of your neck before kissing it tentatively. a soft whimper slips out of your mouth when he kisses your neck again — and then again, and again. something tells you that you should slow things down, but you’re tired of thinking rationally, tired of doing things the “proper” way, tired of letting fate have its way with you.

the night sky is clear, the stars gleaming brightly; you attempt to find a familiar constellation but fail when you feel geto’s tongue flick against your skin. another shiver traipses down your back and he chuckles before pulling away. “i’ll tell you a story about the stars,” he says out of the blue, reaching a hand to point to a spot off to the right. he’s quite the animated orator, captivating you with his words — making you laugh at certain parts, although the story ends a little sadly. you ask him how he knows so much, and he tells you, candidly, that stars were the one constant he had in his life as a child.

you’re not sure why, but that revelation makes you turn around in his arms and lean forward; when you press your lips against his and kiss him, you feel like your heart will lunge out of your chest. he moves his lips against yours, slowly, at first, taking his time to taste you before slipping his tongue into your mouth. the kiss transforms quickly, going from exploratory to fervent, his tongue stroking yours hotly. your mind grows hazy with desire as your body arches against his, fingers clinging onto his shirt with need. you moan against his lips when his hand slides lower and he grabs your ass; already you can feel his cock press against you through his pants, goosebumps traveling down your arms as your hips eagerly rub against his.

a small — very, very small — voice in the back of his mind tells him that he should stop before it’s too late, that he shouldn’t indulge in a rebound-fuck, but he knows if he doesn’t see this through now, he might not ever have the chance again. little does he know, you were fully planning on seeking him out anyway, infinitely liking his company to everyone else’s in your life.

without thinking too much about it, geto picks you up, your dress riding up your thighs as your legs wrap around his waist. he groans into your mouth, pushes you against the wall and presses his stiff cock against your aching pussy. your hips jerk forward, a dampness you pointedly ignored earlier coming back in full force, reminding you of how much you want this. you pepper kisses along his sharp jaw, teeth nipping at the skin on his neck, your name a sinful whisper that tumbles off of his lips with ease. in between heated tongue kisses, you tell him about how much you need to feel him inside of you; he’d be a terrible friend if he didn’t fulfill that request for you, especially because he’s spent one too many nights angrily fisting his cock to the thought of you.

he unzips his pants and pulls his cock free, breathing uneven when he feels you rub your clothed pussy against it. he’s pretty sure he can cum just from that stimulation alone but knows it wouldn’t do to finish that early. normally, he has much more patience than this, but he’s found himself at his limit tonight, doesn’t flinch when he rips through your lace panties, his fingers stroke the folds of your pussy and you yelp at the contact. “d-don’t tease me,” you pant, arousal dripping along your slit, “please, suguru, i need you.” the urgency in your voice has him rubbing the thick head of his cock against your pussy, your hips bucking against him roughly.

geto chuckles at your impatience, although he’s not much better, angling his cock and inching his way inside of you without giving it a second thought. you moan loudly, fully aware that if your neighbors were to step out onto their balconies, they’d hear you; but you don’t care. all you want — all you need, rather — is him. this. the feeling of fullness finds you quickly, his hips snapping forward as he buries his cock into your tight cunt. you tangle your fingers in his hair, tugging on the dark strands as he kisses you again — sloppy and with tongue, his teeth trapping your bottom lip between them. the wall is hard, but you don’t care; you squeeze your legs, plush thighs pressing against him, driving him to pull back and snap his hips again, slamming his cock into deeply.

you’ve never been the religious sort, but you’d gladly pray to whatever altar built in geto suguru’s honor; the way his hips pound against yours mercilessly has you rolling your eyes back, as if you weren’t on the brink of tears over your loser of an ex a few hours earlier, making you forget all of your anger and sadness. he’s annoyed at how lackluster his imagination is — because there’s no way he could ever conjure up something as warm or tight as your pussy, the way it wraps around his length snugly, your arousal coating his cock with each thrust. he knows there’s no way you both can go back to just being friends after this, but he’s not worried about that. yet.

“fuck,” he rasps, voice low and husky, your hips rolling to meet his, stirring up an intense feeling — half fueled by mania and what he perceived to be unrequited feelings — that washes over him completely. he’s never felt this out of sorts, but everything with you is unpredictable. he’s not sure what it is, but he can never get enough of you, made only worse by the tantalizing way your pussy clenches around him. you tug on his hair roughly, almost as if to say yes. harder. faster. more, more, more.

his pace picks up, his strokes turning rough and feverish, his balls heavy as they slap against your ass. you cry out his name, yank on his hair again when he bites down on your neck, legs trembling as you try to hold out for as long as you can. he fucks you like you’ve always been his, like he wants to erase all the others from your memory; you gladly take each of his thrusts, enjoying the brief bouts of pain mixed with pleasure. if you’re honest, your ex never fucked you like this — like you mattered. a tear rolls down your cheek, one that geto licks away, making you shudder and kiss him tenderly in response. you can hardly breathe, but you somehow find a way, clinging onto the man before you as he powers into you — possessive, brutish, and addicting.

“ah, suguru, i’m—” your cunt clenches around him enough to push him over the edge.

“go on,” he coos, kissing you over and over again, both of your lips swollen, “cum for me.” it’s all the instruction you need, your walls — soft and plush, gummy-like and a little treacherous — tighten and you buck your hips wildly, panting as you call out his name, loud enough you’re sure everyone in your apartment building can hear you. and you don’t really care; you realized this half-way through, that you’re so much more at ease, more like yourself whenever he’s around, so you let down your walls and give in a little. geto follows you shortly, his thrusts getting sloppy as he grinds his hips against yours, making you moan again, his lips latching onto your neck as he licks and kisses the skin there. his cum is hot and thick inside of your pussy, some of it spilling out once his hips finally slow down. you lean your head back against the wall, holding onto geto weakly, and laugh at how absurd your life has become.

“what’s so funny?” he asks once he catches his breath, amusement flitting across his face as he watches you.

“nothing,” you say, a small smile tugging on your lips, “just… i know my neighbors are probably so pissed at me right now.” you know you’ll hear about it tomorrow morning, but you don’t really care about that. you lean press your forehead against his and kiss him again, slowly and with purpose, hoping that geto will decide to stay around a little longer and tell you another story about the stars.

Mammon angst stuff back when he was still an angel cuz I'm gay

Micheal and mammon was so close to each other Mams grow up with him and he love micheal as his big brother sm But time move and Micheal become busy with work and responsible

Mammon Always got compare with his older brother and ofc Mam's didn't like it

Mams would try to grab Micheal attention sometime but Micheal would only response with him being busy which made him a bit sad but he understands that

Mammon accidentally did something bad one day and Micheal got call and he realizes that if he cause trouble Micheal would give him the attention he want

Mams keep making a lot of trouble and ppl start calling him "trouble maker" but he only doing it so Micheal would have to find him

Mammon don't care if Micheal hit or yell at him He feel happy just having his brother being right infront of him and not being away is good enough.

Thought sometime someone else would give him a punishment and he hate that. When that happen he would give the person a death stare.

But ofc Micheal got tired of telling him what not to do and end up sending him to Lucifer

Mammon didn't show it but he was Angry and sad because he realize Micheal is giving him away to someone else which is why he hate Lucifer when they first meet

Thought Lucifer win his heart by listening to him and giving him a lot of attention

Acting like an older brother which made mammon feel happy even for some reason he feel like this is wrong

Mammon also got to meet the other and take care of them. Somehow the other thought he was their siblings so they were so clingy to him

Asmo always invite him to tea party and mams would give him a lot of compliments asmo and that made asmo so happy (lmao-)

Levi and mams would tease each other and Levi the guy who never have friend or someone around his age (something like tahg idk) finally have someone who understands him well enough. They would always talk about random stuff

The twin are the most clingy. They refuse to sleep unless mammon read them a bed time story And they always want mammon to lift them up and play with them

Lilith would ask mammon to teach her how to do a flower crown and they gonna made a lot of it and give it to everyone

Beel would always share his food with mammon

Belp won't let mammon go at night and force him to sleep with them all

Mammon feel happy and complete. He don't need to cause any trouble for all of them to be around him and they all were so sweet.

Ofc he still think about Micheal sometime he remember how they use to play together. Micheal was the person who teach him how to do a flower crown jejeksmsms

He still have a good relationship with Micheal but he don't feel the siblings relationship anymore and it made him feel sad

Ofc he and Micheal still see each other sometime like went they eat together

Mammon would tell him about Lucifer siblings and stuff

Micheal could see how he got so bright and happy when he tell him about the siblings and he couldn't help but smile he wish he can made mammon smile like that but he know he can't do that...

During the fight about Lilith and stuff

Micheal was telling mammon that thing wouldn't be great for them and mammon know what he mean. Mams know there a change of someone getting kill or they would lost and something bad would happen...the thought of that hurt him. If bad stuff would happen he want to be there. He want to be with all of them.

Micheal try to tell mammon that he decision is something he would regret.

And mams say "I don't care..even if I regret this I would still be happy that I was there with them..With my family"

Nothing Micheal say will stop him for doing what he want to

Micheal still try to stop him during the fight and before he leave

He fail. He lost his little sunshine and it all because he was an idiot that couldn't be there for his little brother.

Micheal promise that one day he would be there for him again.

Aaaaaa I hurt my thumb 😃

This sht probably have bunch of English error but Imma check it later 💅

I want to delete this so badly btw but Maybe nk

Malina what is her skill and her interest ? Also how the dynamic between her and sentinel

Malina was a friend of my main (human) trio who studied bugs. She struggled with expressing thay interest since a lot of folks found it weird that a "proper lady" like hee was focused on something so gross. But she loved insects, particularly butterflies and moths. I did say one time she was scared of spiders but it kinda made no sense so I decided she should study arachnids too. As a treat.

As for her dynamic with Sentinel, it's a complicated enemies to friends to possibly lovers. See, Malina had only met Sentinel like, one time and ofc she found him to be a massive jerk especially when he insulted her interest in bugs. But she refused to let that get to her; she knew Sentinel was only trying to get a rise out of her and if there was anything she loved more than feeding stickbugs was putting nasty ppl in their place. So she ignored him and carried on with her study.

All that changed when, Waspinator making good on his planzz, attempted to harm Bumblebee by luring him to Bumblebee mutate him to cause him pain. Malina was taken as bait, and while The Autobots did manage to find her, in the resulting battle, they couldn't free her in time...

She mutated into a techno-organic.

Horrified by her new condition Malina ran away hoping to find peace, eventually ending up at Dinobot island. She stayed there and it was this place she befriended the Dinobots. At least they weren't repulsed by hee appearance. The autobots did find her to convince her to come back. For weeks she struggled to adjust to her new condition. Ppl who learned what happened often stopped by to give her condolences, to say that no matter what happened they'll stick by her. The support did help to lift her spirits but she was still resentful. SENTINEL ended up saying something extremely hurtful and she snapped. She exclaimed that he doesn't know anything about compassion or feelings, that he treats everyone around him so horrible, that he never knew what it's like to lose anything. At that Sentinel snapped back saying he does have feelings and he does know what it was like to lose someone. But refuses to say anymore - or well Optimus and Jazz cut in before he could say more. They told him she needed space and did not need hi nasty attitude in the way.

While Sentinel was pissed that the tiny technoorganic audacity, deep down he was hurt by the insinuation that he doesn't know what it's like to feel. For the first time someone cut a hole through that thick wall he built around his spark and the memories came rushing back. So he actually did leave her alone. It was a shock, perhaps finally Sentinel realized his actions had actual consequences.

Very soon Waspinator came back, seemingly with a new army called Insecticons (protoforms he had stolen and created with bug DNA) and planned to attack the Bots again. Malina, having seen her friends' heroic exploits and not wanting to see anymore people suffer what she went through, decided to use her new form to stop him. She had been training. With new wings and the ability to generate gusts; and needed a healthy outlet for her emotions. During the invasion she used her power to rescue civilians and helped to ward some of the smaller Cons. But when she was overpowered by a stronger one SENTINEL came to her rescue. As usual he bragged about it, but Malina was just pleased that she wasn't a premature pancake yet. Surprisingly they worked well together eventually the Bots defeating the Cons and putting Waspinator into custody.

But Malina, understanding WHY Waspinator was the way he was, pleaded for him to be somewhere safe where he could find peace. After all, her anger wasn't going to bring her old body back, and she didn't want to perpetuate a cycle of revenge. Waspinator was stunned. No one ever did that for him; this act even surprised Sentinel (notoriously an unforgiving mech).

After things blew over Malina renamed herself Butterflix, with Sentinel as her assigned partner partly on Alpha Trion's suggestion so that the latter could learn having compassion for another species.

i don't go to this fandom but is kurama a system?

i suppose he could be headcanoned/interpreted that way but i dont think ive seen anything that indicates that being canon :Oo

to give a little details of the canon, hes a centuries old fox demon, notoriously known as the king of thieves, and at some point was nearly killed- or essentially was killed physically- but he managed to transfer his soul to a human fetus so he could bide his time to slowly regain his powers as he pretends to be human.

he originally planned to leave his human mother once that happened, as he just saw her as a means to an end, but eventually he grows very attached to her and changes significantly due to her unconditional love for him even when he mistreated her (he treated her as inferior when he was younger), and it was shown the significant moment of change for him was when he fell over and glass shattered on the ground, and she dove to catch him to keep him from being hurt while her arms got badly damaged on the glass. since then hes had a huge personality change, and is outwardly much more compassionate and kind (though he still is capable of sadistic brutality, but he no longer is needlessly cruel).

later on during a battle in the show, an enemy uses an item that is meant to revert people that inhale the smoke it emits, them planning to revert kurama into being a child to take him out easily. HOWEVER, they werent aware of his original identity, so he ends up getting reverted to his demon form (called youko kurama, as youko is the type of demon he is) and is MUCH more powerful. some time after this battle, hes gifted a related item that he can drink to cause that reversion again. and during these moments hes reverted to his youko form, kuramas voice is different (more significantly so in the sub, as hes voiced by a different person in this form), and he notably acts different as well, being very outwardly sadistic and wanting to toy with his enemy.

however, later on in the show when hes gained the ability to change forms on his own, aka without reverting, then he no longer acts different in his youko form. and i cant remember the specifics of the situation exactly (a lot of the details of the final arc didnt stick to my memory too well, for some reason), but theres a point near the end where hes struggling with his identity and keeps himself from fighting a battle in his youko form despite it being more powerful. iirc i think it was that he didnt want to slip back into his old life, which hes been forced to face again recently as an old acquaintance of his named yomi- whom kurama had betrayed and sent an assassin after (who failed and only blinded yomi)- is now a king in the demon world and requested for his assistance. but kurama wants to stay as he is now, as a demon/human hybrid. id be able to give a better explanation of the specifics of this arc later once i get to it again in my rewatch jgkdjfd

BUT ANYWAYS, basically kurama is shown to have changed to be a kinder person, but with the capabilities to be absolutely brutal when he needs to be and still has a sadistic side he suppresses usually. though some people intepret him to be like those sides of him are completely separate, and i believe they see it like he has two souls in him, one demon and one human? which that interpretation could be treated like a system, i suppose? im not the most familiar with system stuff so idk if ppl with systems would consider "multiple souls, one body" to be similar/same to what they experience. it sounds like itd be similar to me, but i dont wanna make assumptions.

but like i said i havent really seen anything in canon that actually treats them like theyre Separate. its not like Bad or Wrong or anything ofc, but its defintely not the kind of interpretation i like, since i feel like separating those sides of him to essentially be like different consciousnesses kinda messes with the complexity of his character and how he struggles with and regrets his past, and kinda lessens the significant impact his mom has on him if he was also partially changed due to having a human soul... and i like kurama dealing with urges more aligned with his old self sometimes, as if theyre like intrusive thoughts in a way. but ppl can do whatev they want with characters. we all got our own views on em!

As a filthy, filthy multi shipper I’d like to know both headcannons you have for all his pairings and why you like them so much, if you want to of course!

As soon as I read this, my mind started ranting so hard 😂 I will happily answer! And tysm for asking bc if being able to talk about kaito is rare, imagine how much ive talked about the ships i have with him, so im very happy rn!! 🥰 WARNING: dis gonna be long as hell 👁👄👁

OKAY SO the two main ships I have for Kaito are Oumota and Saimota, Saimota is my fave ship and Oumota is my fave comfort ship! The other ships I rlly like with him are Akamota, Amamota, and Momoharu, i pretty much read any fic that has him paired with someone but these are the ones i search for on my own whereas the others its a "i'll read 'em if i come across em" type of deal! So lets dive in 👁👄👁 (i have endless hc's for my ships so i'll only give a few or else this'll never end)

🌌🎭 Oumota 🎭🌌

Reasons: I am a goddamn sucker for thematic parallels, enemies to friends to lovers, and the rivals tropes 🌚 I dont even know how i fell into the oumota hole, cause i didnt consider it much in game, but after reading a few fics it just made me so happy! I love their banter and clashing personalities and stubborness lol, and goddamn, the post game/hangar fics for them are *chef's kiss*

Hc's:

-The way Kokichi tried to get Kaito to see he had feelings for him was by bothering/pranking the absolute shit out of him, but Kaito's dense to these things so he didnt even realize Kokichi stopped bothering other ppl to target him specifically

-When Kaito realized he had feelings for Kokichi, his initial reaction was "oh fuck oh no why him pls no-"

-Eventually Kokichi had to directly tell him to his face he liked Kaito cause Kaito wasn't getting the message at all

-Kokichi loves stealing Kaito's clothes, esp his jacket

-They argue a lot but its over the absolute dumbest shit like before they got together, its usually nothing serious

-Kokichi secretly loves listening to Kaito talk about space, though he teases Kaito about it

-Kaito's fave thing is to cuddle/spoon Kokichi, cause he's the perf size to snuggle with

🌌🔍 Saimota 🔍🌌

Reasons: CAUSE YES!!! From the beggining of Shuichi being the main, Kaito is there for him and supports him so much and makes sure Shuichi is okay, he's just so supportive and loving and helpful and motivational and he's something Shuichi def needed to move forward in the killing game! I just fucking love their dynamic and how they help each other and how they balance each other out as well, plus the whole hero and sidekick thing is adorable! AND OFC THE FAMOUS "i shouldnt be talking about another boy like that" LINE ASDFGHJKL ITS CANON OKAY

Hc's:

-Shuichi confessed first, it took a few times for him to get his feelings across properly bc each time he said something like "i like you" or whatev kaito was like "aw bro i like you too!"

-Kaito tried to get over his crush on Shuichi bc he thought Shuichi wouldn't go for someone like him (i hc him being kinda insecure and covering it up with that confident persona of his)

-Shuichi isn't big on physical contact, but he makes the exception for Kaito bc he's always so warm and gives the best hugs

-Shuichi is the only person who Kaito lets see him vulnerable, it took a lot of time but he eventually learned to stop bottling everything with Shuichi

-Kaito constantly takes Shuichi stargazing, its his fave thing to do and Shuichi is ever so happy to accompany Kaito and listen to space rambles

-Their first kiss was beyond awkward and Shuichi nearly fainted but they got the hang of it eventually

🌌🥑 Amamota 🥑🌌

Reasons: I literally saw an amamota fic on ao3 and it won me over oops- to me it just makes sense! They're both adventurers in a way and i love their personalities together, Kaito's boisterous nature would be a nice change of pace for the ever calm Rantaro and Rantaro's mellow nature would be something refreshing for Kaito y'know?

Hc's:

-Kaito always tried helping Rantaro catch up in classes bc he always misses 'em to travel and he was always the first one to welcome him back

-Rantaro got attached to Kaito and didnt even realize it until he came back one day and kaito wasnt there to greet him (cue disappointed rantaro and bAM thats when he realized)

-Kaito loves hearing about Rantaro's travels, he's always asking for pics and details

-Kaito confessed first, he literally couldn't take it anymore and just threw it out there while Rantaro was mid greeting

-Rantaro didn't tell Kaito about his sisters until about a year into their relationship bc he was scared Kaito would disappear too

-Rantaro literally re-visited a bunch of islands and countries in the artic circle just to take pics/vids of the aurora borealis for Kaito

🌌🎹 Akamota 🎹🌌

Reason: I just think they'd be sooo cute together 🥺 Kaito and Kaede are both positive people who try to help others and their personalities fit so well together! Idk man it just makes sense to me

Hc's:

-Kaito absolutely loves hearing Kaede play the piano, sometimes he'll sneak record her so he can listen to it whenever he's feeling down

-Kaede tries teaching him how to play the piano, instruments aren't his thing but he tries his best in the lessons cause it makes her happy

-Kaito's confession was accidental, he was just listening to her play when he blurted out how pretty she was, which led to an awkward confession talk with lots of blushing

-Kaede has tried to compose a piano piece that embodies Kaito's personality but she fails everytime, cause his larger than life personality is hard to capture perfectly

-They're both big on affection, so they're constantly holding hands and hugging

AND FINALLY, 🌌🔪 Momoharu 🔪🌌

Reason: THEY'RE GREAT TOGETHER OKAY 🥺 I just love how Kaito got Maki to come out of her shell and how he trusted her/accepted her!! He gave her the cutest nickname and befriended her and literally gave his life up to protect her, aND MAKI'S CONFESSION ABOUT FALLING FOR KAITO STILL MAKES ME CRY

Hc's:

-Maki confessed it ever so casually while mid training, which literally made Kaito fall over in shock

-Kaito loves Maki's hair, he could spend hours playing with it and he always helps her brush it

-Maki hates her scars, but Kaito's always there to kiss em and remind her how beautiful she is, he always traces constellations on 'em when they cuddle

-Maki's constantly scared she'll accidentally hurt Kaito, or that he'll get hurt bc of her past

-Kaito's very protective of her, just like Maki is of him

-Maki loves the sound of Kaito's voice, her favorite thing is to listen to him talk about space

W O W i am so sorry for this massive post 💀 I seriously tried limiting myself asdfghjkl oops

10 Reasons why you should watch 'Kipo and the age of Wonderbeasts'

I could be wrong, but I haven't seen anyone do one of these posts for Kipo yet, and I just love this show *clenches fist* SO DANG MUCH, so here we go 1. The Representation ALL of the main characters are poc, except for the two who are literal animals. One of the main characters is also gay, and straight up says "I'm gay" onscreen, which is a big thing for a kids show!! It's the first time I've ever seen it anyway and it made me super happy. *MINOR SPOILERS* He also gets a boyfriend in later seasons, and they're adorable!! *END OF MINOR SPOILERS* 2. It's Finished All three seasons are out, so you won't have to wait months for new content, or worry about it being cancelled (*cough* like Netflix has done to a LOT of good shows) ! U good probably binge it all in three days. Two if you skip out on sleep 3. The Character Development The character arcs on this show r so fucking *chefs kiss*. Seriously, this show had me emotionally attached to a giant monkey, A cat with an axe, A fucking frog in a suit and a godamn piano playing mandrill. And that's without even MENTIONING the main cast, or any of the human characters. 4. The jokes Hear me out ok. I know shows targeted at kids sometimes overdo the comedy side of things, and while Kipo is SOMETIMES (Sometimes. Only sometimes. ) guilty of that, I fucking LOVE this shows humour. The comedy creates a rlly good balance with the serious stuff, bc trust me, this show HURTS sometimes. But the jokes are genuinely funny and feel natural to the characters, and r done in a way that if you rewatch you'll be laughing at things u didn't Even Notice the first time around. 5. The Music The entire soundtrack fucking slaps. And all the scenes set to music are choosen so perfectly it never ever fails to make me Feel Things. The soundtracks to all three seasons r also on Spotify, so u can jam all u want 6. The Compelling and Unique story set up Picture this: it's hundreds of years into the future. Thousands maybe, I can't remember exactly. Most humans have long retreated underground to live in 'burrows' after something caused animals to mutate, making them essentially equal to humans in terms of brainpower. These 'Mutes' now rule the 'surface', and are sworn enimies of human kind (the feeling is mutal). These formidable threats include frogs in suits, big fluffy cats with bigger sharp axes, rock playing snakes, and a monkey trying to recreate the french aristocracy. One day a human girl is thrown out of her burrow after an attack. She's got pink hair. She's got next to no impulse control. And she's got the biggest fucking heart. Yeah. That's Kipo. 7. The Character design and Visual artistry The character designs are unique and fit each person perfectly. And sound like a furry but...ALL the mute designs r so fucking awesome, no exceptions. I'm no animation guru but the show is so visualy pleasing, from chase sequences with PERFECT choreography to all the pretty Colours, which r hands down one of my favourite parts abt the show. It's just. Ugh. It's so pretty to look at ok. And so visually engaging!! There's always more to look at wherever u look, it's like an 'I always feel understimulated' DREAM 8. The Voice Acting I know this can be said of a hell of a lot of shows, but the voice cast is amazing. So many lines are so Emotionally raw and believable, it rlly gets you convinced that the characters are real people. 9. The Emotional impact, even through to the finale Kipo has so many moments that Get To Me. I cried like three times during season three. While the show is fun and upbeat (and an instant serotonin booster for me) it rlly has its heavier moments, and boy does the angst hurt sometimes. This impact carries thru all the way to the last episode. I know we've all been there, when ur favourite shows ending dissapoints. When there's multiple seasons build up to the climax, and the last few episodes just feel...flat. Kipo is not that show. 10. It deserves more love I know the Internet loves calling anything and everything 'underrated', but seriously, it is. With the amout of good characters, good rep, and good episodes, Kipo's fanbase is TINY compared to other amazing shows, like She-ra for instance. Kipo deserves more hype!! And I, ofc, want more ppl to scream about it with. So uh. Yeah. Thanks for coming to my TED talk, go watch Kipo?

[avenger-hawk]

Hi you have a great understanding of Sasuke's character and awesome blog. Could I ask you for tips on how to write Sasuke right in fanfiction? When I try I never seem to get him right

Hello and thanks Anon. First of all, y’all don’t get offended if I’ll destroy some of your fave tropes in fics...I don’t judge ppl writing what they want in their fics, it’s their own fic so ofc they write what they want and how they want it and if they have fun with gay-uncle-Izuna, CEOItachi and sluttySasuke good for them...but when ppl impose their OOC Sasuke (or Nar or Itachi&co) as the real thing, and boy if they do....well. Nope.

Anyway I replied to similar asks here, here and here, so I’ll copy-paste some parts. My Sasuke tag. More Sasuke meta. More headcanons. More essays tag.

Sasuke is not dominant. He’s not bossy. He’s not assertive. He’s very passive in relationships and he values individual freedom, his own and other people’s. Ppl mistake his determination in pursuing his goals with assertiveness but it’s a totally different thing. He never makes the first move with ppl, unless he has a goal and he needs them, and even when he needs them, like Taka, he never imposes his will on them. He first freed them then he asked their help for his own goal, saying that he would accept if they refused. He never imposed himself on his brother (a child wanting his big brother’s attention is not being dominant, it’s natural) and he never did it on Nar or anyone else.

Sasuke is not selfish, he is the most selfless character in the whole series. He respected people, he didn’t see himself above them. He didn’t see himself as a genius or anything. He worked hard because he had a low self esteem, he was always compared to Itachi and he always lost. He was humble enough to ask others’ help, like asking N*ruto how S*kura was able to climb the tree with chakra in the beginning, or asking Team Taka’s help to find Itachi, asking Kakashi to make him stronger and following Orochimaru for more strength. And during all these, he was thrown in his face parts of the tragic truth about Itachi and his clan and he always had to get back on his feet and fight more. His world crumbled so many times on him and yet not only he reacted but he always was able to help those around him. Not with big words like N*ruto but really, freeing Orochimaru’s prisoners, Taka, and earlier protecting his team from Gaara, protecting N*ruto from Haku, and later proitecting N*ruto from Kaguya and then protecting the whole world from her, protecting Itachi’s ideal, his sacrifice from those who threatened to make it useless. He was ready to become the world’s only enemy to keep them together, following what he thought Itachi had taught him indirectly.

Sasuke is neither possessive nor jealous. He never showed any sign of possessiveness or jealousy towards anyone. He protected Taka and N*ruto. He defended Itachi’s name, unlike too many like to think: when he threatens Danzo to stop talking about Itachi it’s not because he’s jealous but because he doesn’t want that bastard to talk shit about his perfect brother, especially cause that bastard was the reason of his ruin. He was defending his name from an enemy and it was pure and selfless, not possessive at all! Proof of this is when Hashirama praises him instead, Sasuke is happy. He likes people to speak about his brother in a good way! When they were children Itachi always dismissed Sasuke who pouted but never got really angry or jealous at Shisui for example. And at the end of the fight vs Kabuto he aknowledged Itachi’s resolve to leave even tho it broke his heart to lose him again, and he let Itachi go with the saddest face but the utmost respect.

Sasuke is not arrogant. He has a low self-esteem. He was raised in the shadow of his genius brother, he suffered for his father not noticing him, he later developed an inferiority complex towards N*ruto as well because of his quick progress, compared to his own that he perceived as slower and not enough (that’s why he joined Orochimaru). When he brags it’s not because he’s the bragging type (aka N*ruto, Kiba &co) but it’s because he’s either making fun of N*ruto, since they were rivals/friends (not to mention it’s a shounen trope) and, even more so, because he is proud of his achievements. He worked so hard always and when he created a jutsu or smth he says it. Because he has low self esteem but he’s not socially awkward or shy or whatever (see later paragraph). So he is proud of his own results. (which is also a very TE thing, for those who care about mbti stuff).

Sasuke doesn’t value his life much. This is a result of his low self-esteem, which leads to poor sense of self-preservation (to prove that he’s strong, like when he was a genin and he trained so hard,and later to pursue his goals, for which he’d give his body to Orochimaru and his life over and over). Also he is so determined to achieve his goals that he’d do anything for them. He was ready to die on many occasions in canon for this and even later, after the ending, he’s seeing himself as a tool. Also, he never really got over the sense of worthlessness first caused by his father and then by Itachi’s words the night of the massacre. Not in a real life trauma-like thing, but as a way to see himself. this means that all those stereotypical rocking back and forth, cutting, whatever behaviors are not like him, who always got back to his feet and lived, although not for himself but for his goals.

Sasuke is not bitchy or spoiled. If he was he would have a great self esteem, and he clearly showed to have a very low self esteem instead. He never made anything about him actually, as all his goals were about others, his family, his brother, and so on. He was the one who did better teamwork in team7 actually, and he protected his friends and comrades, not to mention he freed Orochimaru’s prisoners and fought for the village and its people. How is this spoiled or bitchy, and btw, bitchy ppl do get offended and he never paid attention to offenses towards him, only towards his brother.

Sasuke is neither the haughty élite type nor the shy/socially anxious/‘emo’ type. He is neither Neji nor H*nata. He is aloof, he is always lost in his own thoughts and he doesn’t care about socializing because he wants to become strong, because he cared more about his family and goals, because he cared more about their opinion than the opinion of classmates. He valued strength since the beginning, being raised the way he was raised, so he valued the praise of strong people and not of the others, unlike those who seek praise from everyone. On the other hand his being aloof doesn’t mean he can’t have normal interactions, and the fact that he doesn’t use honorifics doesn’t mean he has socialization problems. Only that he doesn’t pay attention to these things anymore. He was always pragmatic, and after the massacre he became pragmatic to an extreme level, cutting off all unnecessary things, manners included. It doesn’t mean, though, that he doesn’t respect some people (=those he deems strong. Including Team Taka). He just shows it through actions.

Sasuke is not se/xually aggressive/dominant/whatever. He is too busy with his own goals to have se/xual or romantic thoughts (unlike other characters both male and female, not just Karin but also S*kura, Ino, and ofc N*ruto). I wouldn’t define this being asexual tho, because their universe is not ours and I’m sick&tired of all the real world/Nar universe parallels. He’s passive in relationship and on many occasions he showed indifference to se/xual anything, not disgust. Just, it wasn’t his thought. Because he is on a different wavelength. So even when he told characters to not be so close to him or smth, he didn’t move away, he just told them, which kinda proves my point once more of how passive he is towards ppl and relationships, he just lets them be. On the other hand, aceSas is better than hornydominantSas that is so OOC it hurts, be it with Itachi, Nar, S*kura or whatever other girls/boys.

Most MAIN characters didn’t understand/didn’t try to understand him. The ones who understood him more are unexpectedly not his friends. Not counting Taka ofc.

Sasuke is passive. He is the yin and N*ruto is the yang. In case this isn’t clear. It’s canon. Kishi used a yin/yang parallel for him and N*ruto, so while N*ruto is yang/sun/warm/ positive/active/male principle in nature/masculine, Sasuke is yin/moon/cold/negative/passive/passive/female principle in nature/feminine. Passive doesn’t mean weak. It means receptive, adaptable, flexible, which Sasuke is, since he’s the one who adapted his life and goals to new events, truths and changes, unlike most others who just kept going their own way no matter what (see N*ruto or Itachi). Many see him as assertive because he faces every situation in a very determined manner, taking actions and deciding everything independently. But being an independent thinker has nothing to do with being assertive or passive. I say he’s passive because he actually always reacts to what life (or Itachi) throws at him, every time. His reactions are quick and strategic, so it’s easy to miss this, but still, again, Itachi or N*ruto actively engage the environment and life, and influence other people, not Sasuke. He’s also passive with people, in relatioships. He never seeks anyone unless it’s for practical reasons, he only reacts to them approaching him. And he reacts in a very calm way, quite mild compared to how determined and detached he is, considering that a lot of characters invade his personal space or more, in the whole series. When he chases after Itachi it’s because he’s his younger brother and it’s natural for them, and mostly because Itachi set up his life so that he would focus on him, still it’s Itachi who is assertive, and he reacts in return. He makes a deal with Orochimaru, to obtain strength and give him his body in return. When he forms Team Taka, before asking their help, he first gives them freedom and only then he asks them to join him, making it clear that he won’t force them if they’ll refuse. He gives them something before asking something in return. This is not just a passive thing but something more because he is not selfish, like I said before.

Sasuke is an independent thinker. Unlike other smart thinkers like Itachi or Madara, to whom the story associated him, Sasuke was kept in the dark about many things, so he developed his own view of the world later, but when he did it was original and unique, just like his fighting style and strategy.

Sasuke is private about his thoughts and feelings but he’s also honest about them. Itachi is mysterious and not honest about his feelings, not him. He is aloof, it’s different. Just because he doesn’t trust many people and he’s lost in his own thoughts it doesn’t mean he is a shoujo mysterious character lol.

Sasuke is goal oriented. He does whatever it takes to achieve his goals. He would have given his body as a vessel for Orochimaru, not caring about what would happen to him, as long as he could have his revenge. He would have lived an eternity in solitude so that the world would have lived in peace. And, again, his goals are never about himself.

Sasuke wanted to die after he killed Itachi, but then when he woke up and was told the truth he had another purpose, and so he lived on.

Sasuke admires and respects strength but he’s not power thirsty. He wanted to become strong because he wanted to be worthy of Itachi and his father, than because he had to avenge his clan, then he had to avenge Itachi. It’s because he had low self-esteem and was selfless that he sought power. He wanted to be beside his father and brother, not to surpass them, actually. It’s Itachi who talked about surpassing.

Sasuke is very smart and logical, but he is easily manipulated with the right arguments. Like using Itachi, or appealing to his low self esteem, his feeling of worthlessness, his emotions. Because people who are logical are actually not emotionless. In fact they have a hard time controlling their emotions when they feel strongly, and this can be seen clearly every time Sasuke loses control. He becomes more impulsive than N*ruto who instead gets calmer, because he’s more in touch with his emotions (lol ofc he is, everything is always about his own emotions and feelings). Sasuke puts his feelings and emotions aside to reach his goals, he acts logically and pragmatically, he observes, makes plans, finds the better ways to do things, no matter how hard or dangerous for him they are. He has logical arguments even though they appear ‘crazy’ to other characters, and it’s sad to see how in the end he was belittled by N*ruto, as if his arguments were meaningless, they were not addressed at all, just deemed wrong, not with counterarguments but with illogical emotion based words that just made him feel unstable, as it happens when you have logical arguments and they tell you ‘you’re just depressed, you don’t get things right’.

In the end, he was tamed into submission. He was defeated, put in jail, isolated, guilt tripped and berated because of his ideals and goals, denied the justice he rightfully demanded.

All these can be observed directly. Others, more subtle things about him I wrote here, towards the end of this long post.

a silly night

Jean Kirstein X Reader

summary: you asked jean to dye your hair and ofc like a nice boyfriend he does!!

warnings: screaming,cursing,fluff!

meanings!!

F/C : fav color

H/T : hair type

H/L : hair length

Y/N: your name

also this is unedited only edited in some parts so sorry if there r any grammar mistakes !

—

flashback to earlier that week, you and your boyfriend had a discussion.

“hey jean...? would you be willing to dye my hair for me” you say ending with a smile.

of course jean’s happy to oblige. “of course Y/N! what are you thinking of doing?” he tilts his head in your direction.

“oh nothing much, i was just thinking of maybe F/C? i don't know i think it'd be pretty.” you say looking at him for an opinion.

his eyes lit up looking back into your eyes. “hey woah really! we’d have to bleach it though i hope you’re okay with that.” he laughs.

“yes i’m okay with it!” you say with a smile.

“good, not to brag but i’m kind of an expert at everything so this won’t be a problem.” he says raising a brow acting like the cocky man he is.

timeskip to now..

your head. was on literal fire. jean said you had to wait until you could wash out the bleach but, waiting felt like it was taking ages. “FUCK MY GOD.” you scream, jumping up and down from how much the bleach is burning. jean sat in his chair with his gloves on, pointing and laughing at you in your face.

“JEAN!! STOP LAUGHING THIS FUCKING HURTS SO BAD” you yell making him start to hold his stomach from laughing so hard.

“just five more minutes, chill out babe, okay?” he said calmly trying not to let out another laugh.

you scoff and rolled your eyes, now shaking your head side to side screaming bloody murder as you jump waiting for the five minutes to end.

“okay, times up. go shower..” he says as he throws away his gloves and walks into the bathroom with you.

you enter the bathroom, immediately throwing your clothes on the floor and jumping in, with the water already on since jean turned it on when he got to the bathroom before you.

“okay babe this is important, make sure you shut your eyes as tight as possible, getting bleach in your eyes will hurt really bad so keep them closed, kay?” he says tilting his head making sure you understood.

you nod and close your eyes immediately. he was in there so he could hand you the products that you needed to brighten your bleached H/T hair.

as he handed you the products and you washed throughout your hair you finished shortly.

then you were back in the chair asap, jean was wearing his gloves, going through your H/L hair with the hair dye brush. he made sure to de-tangle your hair prior to dyeing it. as he dyed your hair F/C you couldn’t help but just whip out your phone camera just to look at how pretty he looked, he looked so calm and precious as he dyed your hair with a small smile on his face, he was gorgeous. everything you could ask for. you didn’t know how you ended up so lucky and he felt the same.

“HEY! Y/N I BOUGHT EXPENSIVE FOIL FOR YOUR HAIR!! SO. APPRECIATE ME!!” he yells, putting his hands on his hips then realizing he got dye on his shirt and sighs as he going back to putting pieces of your hair into foil.

after he finished putting all the foil, you guys played mario kart to pass the time you had to let your dye sit.

after the time passed, you started to scream.

“I WON MOTHERFUCKER!!” you jumped up sticking both your middle fingers in jean’s face. he laughed at you, high fiving you and he pushed you slightly towards the shower.

you removed the foil, and then stepped into the shower. jean already set the products you needed to the side of the shower prior to you getting in and you smiled at the thought.

you washed throughout your hair, watching some of the color mixing with the water. jean waited eager to see how you looked as you finished washing your hair throughly.

you wrapped your body in your towel as you looked in the mirror before stepping out.

“TADAAA!!!!” you said loudly while doing jazz hands, trying to make sure your towel didn’t fall.

“STOP OH MY GOD YOU LOOK SO PRETTY” jean says while walking towards you with his jaw practically on the floor.

he grips your shoulders and leans back to look at you fully and then smiles brightly.

“hey so do you like it? i tried my best” he says with a nervous smile showing that he isn’t as cocky when it comes to you.

“jean,” you say tilting your head down and looking at him. “jean, i love it so much.” you say as you pulled him into a hug.

he lets out a sigh of relief and laughs as he hugs you tightly back. he pulls out the hug and asks if he can touch your hair as you nod and he goes in to touch it.

“ahh Y/N it feels so healthy!” he says as he quickly takes his hand off smiling so brightly as you smile back.

“thank you jean, you did an amazing job, i love you.” you say shutting your eyes from your smile.

“i love you too.” he says smiling.

[cvastals]

look i kno i said i wasnt gna bring a 6th until i was caught up w replies bt i kno gunner well n therefore felt like he deserved his time to shine in the rp so i beg of u pls plot w him looks at u all like :B

* axel auriant, cis man + he/him | you know gunner paxton, right? they’re twenty-two, and they’ve lived in irving for, like, four years? well, their spotify wrapped says they listened to bizarre love triangle by new order like, a million times this year, which makes sense ‘cause they’ve got that whole curling up for days in bed wearing a hello kitty comfort shirt, stuttering in the face of affection, and hand me downs two sizes too big thing going on. i just checked and their birthday is july 31st, so they’re a leo, which is unsurprising, all things considered. ( bri, 23, est, they/them )

background.

middle child of the paxton family, cliff being the eldest and wyatt being the youngest :D

they lived at the top of a hill in a trailer in a trailer park neighbourhood in laramie, wyoming so to say the least that fucking sucked for everyone involved

the trailer was so small that all 3 boys ended up sharing a room, gunner and wyatt sharing a bunk bed bc they cldnt fit 3 beds into one room it really was every childs nightmare bt they quickly grew used to it tbh

gunner was always more of an artsy child than invested in sports - though he does enjoy baseball and continued even to this day after their dad made him join SOMETHING in middle school - so he never rly earned their father’s respect, but he was always close with his mom since they had the same calm temperament

(depression/anxiety tw) he also gained a list of mental health issues that their mom had as well, including social anxiety and major depressive disorder

(violence/abuse tw) their father always encouraged pretty volatile behaviour and it caused a lot of physical fights and arguments between the brothers when their dad told them the best way to get over it was to start hurting until someone tapped out, it was just a chaotic and pretty abusive household but no one knew and their mom definitely wasn’t going to say anything about it to their dad

(missing child/kidnapping/anxiety/depression tw)  wyatt went missing on a weekend that their parents were gone because of a trip they won, and things just got worse from there, high school was really rough for gunner, his anxiety grew worse as time went on that no one found wyatt, their dad grew more hostile towards them, cliff left home in the middle of the night never to be seen again (merely leaving a note so that the family didn’t think they had a case of two kidnapped children), and their mom just grew sicker, it was rare that she would ever leave her room and if she did it was in fits of random energy where she would do something spontaneous and completely unnecessary to their house as a way of coping

the two years that gunner was at home after cliff left were pretty brutal and as soon as he could, he was fleeing wyoming and going to school in irving

(internalized homophobia tw)  things are far better now that he’s out of his home situation, but ofc he still has a few personal things he’s working thru; the paxton’s were raised in an incredibly religious household, and he’s got some classic Catholic Guilt going on upon realizing that he’s not jst attracted to women n he avoided talking abt it forever/stayed in the closet fr far too long bt he’s sort of come out now in his own way even tho he does still get a bit nervous talking abt it rly

he’s also ‘dealing’ rn (just pharmaceuticals) which is frankly funny to think abt bc this man is abt as threatening as a care bear bt money is tight all things considering and a librarian job doesn’t rly cover it, and with the amount of meds he’s on, plus incredibly frequent doctor’s visits, needing to pay for extra epi-pens, inhalers, etcs. bills add up so he’s cutting back his meds n selling wht he can spare which is . so unhealthy bt thts life in corporate america baybee!

details.

is literally allergic to everything. grass, cats, most fruits, milk, most nuts, bees, latex, probably more i cnt even keep up w them its pathetic

u can catch him strutting around town w his blinged out epipen holder (aka blinged out w pins of his fav horrors movies) LKSHDGKLHSKLDG

if things cldnt get worse he also has quite intense asthma so he carries an inhaler with him at all times

n to make matters even WORSE he frequently has dizzy spells n bad memory problems bc of all the concussions he’s suffered from (about 8-9 at this point) as well as consistent migraines that can b literally debilitating sometimes

awkward n jst a bit of a Weirdo to b frank like he barely knows how to converse with ppl

didnt have any friends in high school so took the time to teach himself rly weird things, knows a fuck ton of magic tricks, can yodel, juggle, solve a rubix cube with his eyes closed in under 30 seconds, just extremely weird and specific things

can honestly b a bit mean/barbaric to ppl he’s not close w/doesn’t kno - has told ppl to their face before he doesn’t enjoy talking to them bc he has no concept of social constructs/norms

loves 2 film random things at parties, makes him feel more comfortable at them n he makes short films of them all after

going off that fact he did a film internship in nyc during the summer and is trying to find a job in that field

doesn’t realize demisexuality is a thing so he’s never been that fond of sex but has this stigma in his mind that that makes him Broken so he still Tries n it jst doesnt go well tugs my shirt collar

connections.

ppl who r more into under the counter meds than Hard Drugs n buy off him?? probs wld have to kno him some way hes too scared to sell to Random randoms

ppl he went to school w? :D

some friends………. hes awkward bt he means well…………

ppl he has a crush on/unrequited crushes either way wtvr floats ur boat he crushes quite easily but never does anything abt it fr the most part

a mans he wld Risk It All fr (aka a guy tht he actually has a crush on n is Extra Awkward probs a lil mean to bc hes still New to That)

some enemies tbh, he has a temper n he tends to blow up rarely bt it happens n when it does it actually can b quite scary JKSHDGLHSDG

a muse….. mayhaps?? someone he always wants in his film projects

awkward past hook ups/one night stands where one of them cut ties off cuz every time they got together gunner acted like he was embalming a body for a funeral

current hook ups/fwb’s w ppl he’s actually close w/is comfortable w so its nowhere near as bad SDKHSLDGHKLSDGH

Anything u Desire

hey luvbug! for the past few months i’ve seen ur posts ab ur sister and i have never had the words to express my condolences to u. ofc i didn’t know her personally, nor do i know u personally, but she sounds like she was just the loveliest person with such a beautiful soul. what a barbaric, god forsaken life that we live, right? it’s so unfair how easily people can be taken from us and it’s so painful, dude. but u are so fuckin strong. im so proud of u for just waking up every day, even if u have to cry 5 times before getting out of bed. because that shit hurts! it’s really hard but ur doin it! do not let the lil gremlin in ur brain say ur not doing great, u are doing amazing. u simply existing is enough. ur sister deserves to be known and remembered, thank u for sharing her beautiful life with us. she did not deserve to die so young and u do not deserve the pain that the universe has caused u. i don’t know if everything will be okay, but i have hope that it will. and today might not be great but tomorrow might be, you never know. so keep goin and take ur time to heal. i believe in u! n i’m rooting for u!💛

:((( dontttt i’ve read this like a million times since you sent it goshhhh :(( it really is an unimaginable existence, i can’t wrap my head around any of it........it’s like every year i go through more, but understand far less. when i think i’m at rock bottom, the ground fuckin crumbles all over again lol. but yeah, the sudden-ness of her death and the permanence of it is just totally crushing me. cause we really were best friends, so much of me is her. it’s like losing the only person in the world who was with you from the start. i am never going to forgive myself honestly, and i’m never going to ‘get over it’, either. people say they don’t expect me to get over it, but there’s still an expectation that i’m going to build my life and move forwards. i just don’t see how that can be. anyway, thank you so much for this my angel. and for making me feel better about simply getting through the days, because that’s truly all i’m doing right now. i literally just breathe and it feels like the hardest thing in the universe. it means a lot that you think i’m doing enough anyway, seriously. i can’t express it right but i’m holding this n you in my heart very dearly. i can’t tell if things are going to be okay either, at least i know they’ll never be okay in the same way they were when she was alive but. i’m still alive so i’ve got to deal with it and that’s the end of it. anyway i believe in u too!! w all my heart. please extend yourself the same compassion you’ve shown me. know that you are capable, strong and good from the inside out. the world needs u and ppl like u ! 💛

•ALLEGRA BIANCHI•

IG info/bio: @/theeallegrabianchi | 303k followers| Entrepreneur | bad bitches go to therapy thxz 🦭👄

(24) 26 years old

From Swansea, Wales

Ofc she knows who Catherine Zeta-Jones is...her mother literally resembles her and remembers people coming up to her mom countless times asking for a pic growing up, and Allegra hated taking pics for these imbeciles...mainly because the attention wasn’t on her

has a dysfunctional family...

her mother is critical of almost everything she does but at least she paying attention?

and feels her father is neglectful and only seems to be heard when she’s in his face

all they know how to do is scream at each other instead of talking calmly to one another

her mother is of Venezuelan heritage

And Her father is of Italian heritage

her father’s side of the family resides in calabria italy

he named her after his high school gf that passed away due to his irresponsible drunk driving on their senior prom night

Her parents do not have the healthiest of relationships due to her father constantly cheating on her mother in the past...leading to verbal and physical fights

also has a kid or two outside of their marriage because of his unfaithfulness and allegra learned to hate them because of the hurt her mother showcased

In the beginning she was only around them because her father enforced it, that she needed to know her family “blood is all you got in the end.” He would always say but that was bs

Would take her, her half sibs, and her full sibs on day trips/weekend trips in his suburban

Has three full older brothers and one full younger sister

Because of this, Allegra did not have a clear view of what love was supposed to be and felt that anger in a relationship is supposed to be somewhat of the norm?

Many times she wished at night in her bed with a pillow over her head that her parents would just file for a divorce already when their fights would get bad to the point things would get broken and her mother would h*t her father (once with a metal bat) and throw him out of the house

Has had the cops called on their household before and cps definitely has/had a file on them

Has been in family therapy before and is currently in therapy mainly for herself because of the trauma & how it’s messed with her spirit as a person

Loves? Cares for her parents from afar but will never understand their relationship and why they’re still together to this day

Can go months without speaking to any of her family members and be completely fine with that

Had her younger sis, Nerina put her PRIVATE shit on blast via internet after love island aired and completely cut her off since she is “a clout chaser and money hungry bitch who can’t take care of own her child cause she opened her legs to a meth head who loves prison” OOP

she only has a decent relationship with one of her brothers who’s two years older than her, Vito. They seem to be the closest out of the sibs and he’s the only one she bothers to speak to from time to time

She’s a “cocktail entrepreneur” so I’m guessing she has her own business where she specializes in her own cocktail drinks? Working in some upscale rooftop/penthouse bar where she successfully makes profits from her signature drinks or has a brand that focuses mainly on cocktails

It took years for her business to take off and hasn’t been easy, not one bit. At times it felt like everyone wanted to see her fail and she has openly spoken about her struggles as not only a entrepreneur but as a woman in this business where no one wanted to take a chance on her

That just lit the fire that’s already inside of her

Aries sun + Leo moon + Scorpio rising? (Personality vs how you react to things emotionally vs you’re outside shell for those who don’t follow this too much. I’m not too in depth about it but I do find it interesting!)

Or should she be reversed as a Leo sun with a Aries moon? Aries are direct, fiery, one step ahead of others, impulsive, and know how to take charge. Leo’s are dramatic, loves attention, passionate, loyal, warm, and have a need to express their passions, and scorpios are intense, secretive, mysterious, and work strategically

anyways, I feel like she’s definitely improved as a person over the span of two years? Or at least I hope she has cause everyone goes thru changes

And she was frustrating in s1 so I just know she had some deeper issues going on so I really think therapy is helping her ass I wish it would help me lmao

Being cheated on honestly made her feel like her mother, weak in her mind she was with this dude for awhile—3 years and he just up and thought it was okay to cheat on her? With his personal trainer?! Yet he didn’t gain any muscle mass?! The ultimate disrespect!!! but one thing she knew? She wasn’t going to stick around like her mom did

But she was bitter about it foresure. She ultimately wanted to corner the girl for messing with HER man but part of her knew she wasn’t the only one to blame. However that didn’t stop her for cussing her out via voicemail a couple of times while intoxicated

Allegra always strived for love cause she’s never really seen it before or felt it

Sure she’s had many boyfriends before?And their names didn’t matter not only because she didn’t remember them? But she never felt the spark with them in the first place?

Maybe she wasn’t meant for love so she kinda put on this bitchy front and always been that way with some shitty friends she had around her until she recently cut them off a year ago

has gotten herself into trouble as a kid: trespassing, and destroying public property, smoking in the girls bathroom, physical altercations, cutting class, being assigned community service, etc... all with these friends she’s had for years!

Before she met her problematic friends in secondary, when she was in her pre-teen stage she was involved in the handbell team and in the Color guard but hates to admit it even tho her parents have pics all over the flat

went away to uni for a semester and wanted to join a sorority but the hazing was extreme to the point she was sent to the hospital then accepted? Which led to more trauma in her life so she dropped out

A few years later she decided on online courses and moved out of her parents flat as soon as she could with the $ she saved up and did not leave in the house since it was not safe to smh

Therapy was really helping sis, she felt a lot better and was working on her deep rooted issues mainly the anger and hurt and never really realized how it revolves around her life. She was super thankful for her therapist and reshaping herself

Many didn’t buy it but she knew she couldn’t give that much of a fuck? She couldn’t. In order to grow you got to learn that you have to involve for yourself and not others

She didn’t like the person she saw watching the show back but when she came back to the reunion a part of her hoped people saw some sort of change in her—even if it’s only been a few months since the show then

Sometimes she’ll slip back into old habits, wanting and doing so by snapping on people and blacking out by getting intoxicated and knowing that healing is a process and valuing yourself is the exact same

has a toy poodle that she loves deeply

doesn’t have many outside friends after cutting off the ones that were toxic

is pro-ab*rtion and had one herself which was aired out by her sister online

has a cozy flat that has a lot of brick exposure inside, a navy sofa which is her favorite piece in her house, and a view to die for!! which erases the fact that her apartment is “cozy” which she uses to replace the fact that it’s much smaller than what she originally wanted. She dreams big ya know!!!

currently has a crush on her art teacher who resembles Adam Rodriguez

but also feels like liking your teacher/instructor is a bit weird? Even tho they’re both grown

yes she is taking art classes now outside of work to find something that’ll bring her peace and these pass months they have until COVID hit where classes had to be cancelled yet she was contacted to continue online but she felt her art was truly shit but he says art is subjective

She feels like there’s a connection there? But at the same time isn’t looking for another relationship until she fully works on herself first! That took awhile for her to accept after she fell into some relations with a few ppl after the show

from there she realized that she might like girls too? And got a little annoyed that it took her this long to figure out especially with the way she felt around MC and cherry

doesn’t like to admit this but her fav holiday is Christmas? Even tho the theme is majorly corny to her but it actually makes her happy?

Feels like that was the only time her family showed love towards each other, and even tho they didn’t come from much, they always followed thru with their traditions

and she misses them a little bit around this time and might be the first one to call them even if the calls are short lived and kinda awkward at first

Loves making gingerbread houses and cookies

i feel like she now embraces her forearm hair but still gets everything else lasered

Miss Allegra has inches okay?! But I definitely feel like now in 2020 she’s chopping that shit off into a pixie cut and when she posts on the gram her hair is usually always damp when she shows it off

some comments — jake: lovely! Jen: babe, ur beautiful! Erikah: 😍 Tim: how hot! You’ve got the whole resident evil thing goin for yous

“Did he just call me a virus?”

And she might get a like from mason that’ll make her feel some type of way

We all have to go thru some growth you know so do you girl!

You can’t tell me she doesn’t play stabscotch!

Used to be obsessed with social media way before going on love island but lately doesn’t mind disappearing for months at a time? You have to cleanse yourself from that shit

idk i see her being mostly cool with jen or erikah and will hang out with them from time to time? Maybe they experienced some growth too, shit I sure hope so

still feels something for mason??? But at the same time maybe it was mainly superficial since mason wasn’t fucking with her like that, not 100% but at the same time gets frustrated that he still doesn’t see where she’s coming from and it’s been 2 years???

She loves hard if given the chance and then feels like shit when it doesn’t work out cause it feels like she wasted a fuck load of time

she no longer follows him because she feels like it’s better for her spirit or whatever and she doesn’t need to see him with someone else

the only guy that she really interacts with is Tim, yet tim is cool with everybody!

Otherwise there’s no real connection with her and anybody else? She wants to keep love island separate from herself now because she’s not exactly the same as she was two years ago? And hopes someday people will get that

Probably watches those auction shows on the telly late at night when she can’t sleep, hoping and can afford some of those things one days

I feel like she has chronic migraines too?

Once had a significant other buy her Allegra-D in all seriousness for her birthday because it reminded them of her & thought it would help her headaches 🤨

Loves the snow, but hates cleaning it off her car! S/O to those HOA fees, bless it cause leggy’s deff bussed her ass once before breaking her collarbone and sued like a mf!!!

Since her hours are hardly consistent since she’s mainly her own boss, she’ll have late nights/early mornings when she returns home and has to shift days where she cleans the flat but when she cleans??? It’s best everyone stays tf out of her way

And don’t try to help her cause you’re doing it wrong 10/10 of the time, she loves cleaning and has dropped mad money on those super expensive vacuums

Only knows how to make what’s relative to her culture: arepas, penne alla vodka, and cawl but otherwise than that? She’d rather clean then spend hours in a kitchen cooking unless she’s making cocktails ofc!

also loves shopping for clothes but shoes are her fav things to shop for

Deff has a steamer over a iron for her clothes

Keeps eucalyptus and lavender oil in her purse at all times

posts mainly on her stories and made a deal with her supporters that she’ll go live once a month since she feels like she owes them that? Since she’s not as active anymore but she really doesn’t owe anybody shit but out of the newfound kindness of her heart...she does

Believes she got Covid before they all decided to do a shut down/lockdown of restaurants, bars, etc.. and her suspicions were proven correct after she decided to get tested

her anthem? Kali Uchis — Dead to me (acoustic version)
