Pick three colors.
"Finding a man like Haruto Abe is like finding a diamond: he is impossible to forget. It is not Haruto Abe's words that should be feared, it is his silence. He loves entirely with his whole heart, but he is not a man who can tolerate fakers and users - he'd rather walk along than with the wrong crowd. His life has been harder than people realize, but he's turned his sorrow into beauty and his sadness into strength. Unbreakable, humble, and loyal, Haruto Abe is the kind of man worth fighting for. You should NEVER let him go."

We all know the fact that Naruhodou (Wright) passed the bar exam to get the opportunity to face Mitsurugi (Edgeworth) in court.
This is all, as it seems at first glance, naive, a little retrospective, selfish, romantic, and so on. However, no matter how clinging to the past Naruhodou may seem, is he really that loyal and forgiving to his old childhood friend?
Nothing like that. Nah. Not a chance.
When Mitsurugi is first mentioned by Detective Itonoko in an office conversation in the Turnabout Sisters (jp. 逆転姉妹), we are given two answer options - first: Of course i don't know him, second: Of course, I know him.
If we choose the first option, the detective will tell us a little backstory about the prodigy prosecutor and express the opinion that it is strange that Naruhodou hasn't heard about him. To which Naruhodou will answer that he simply feigned ignorance and will express his opinion about the prosecutor in an internal monologue.
If we choose the second option, Naruhodou will loudly share his immodest conclusions about Mitsurugi, which will displease the detective.
Even the beginning of the meeting is accompanied by Naruhodou’s thoughts that he must not relax and show weakness, otherwise Mitsurugi will swallow him alive.
From the very beginning, Naruhodou isn't in the mood to play on emotions and press on pity, instead preparing himself for the worst.
He understands that time spent together in childhood is not an argument or a reason to start a conversation.
The entire court hearing is accompanied by Naruhodou's evaluative comments about Mitsurugi - he curses him, out loud questions some of the actions of the prosecutor (updated autopsy report), calls and interrogates inconvenient witnesses for the prosecution (Mitsurugi doesn't want me to question the witness, but I don't care), answers him with the same barbs (Wasn't it you who told me "proof is everything"? Well, I was listening.), denounces the collusion of the prosecution with the witnesses, protests against the postponement of the hearings in order to prevent manipulation of the evidence, in general, by any means, unbalances Mitsurugi.
He is literally: Is there something you don’t like? I don't care.
In the next case - Turnabout Samurai (jp. 逆転のトノサマン), Detective Itonoko is angry at Naruhodou for upsetting the prosecutor, but his response is not remorseful: "Umm... so?"
During the first day of the hearing, Naruhodou literally laughs at the confrontation between the prosecution and his own witness ("Wow, old windbag has left even Mitsurugi speechless. She's good!" or "Mitsurugi found himself a worthy opponent"). He also sincerely doesn't understand why Mitsurugi’s behavior has changed, and he seems out of place, but he doesn't stop creating problems for the prosecution.
He doesn't soften towards him until the Turnabout Goodbyes (jp. 逆転、そしてサヨナラ), in which Mitsurugi becomes his client, and even later, when they begin to build a trusting relationship, Naruhodou does not make concessions for Mitsurugi and does not bend under his pressure.
So, Naruhodou did pass a very difficult exam to gain access to the courtroom, but he essentially created a hopeless situation for Mitsurugi. In the conditions of the court hearing, the prosecutor had no other chance than to listen to the arguments of the defense. Naruhodou may not have addressed Mitsurugi directly at first, saying that his ideology was terrible, but he did, proving with his words and actions right in the halls of the law that this is not how things are done and there is a limit to cruelty. He calmly used the letter of the law and jurisprudence - the language that Mitsurugi respects and lives by.
Defeat your opponent with his own weapon when you think he is wrong.
Naruhodou is a stubborn, purposeful, and quite strict person of character who lives without regrets, takes big risks, and doesn't allow himself to relax in any difficult situation.
He is gorgeous.
P.S. I don’t have some screenshots from the court and from the office because I don’t have the English version of the game, and in the video the author did not check all the options (I don’t blame the author, thank her for screenrecord)

San as your Boyfriend ❀*ੈ✩‧₊˚ ('Realistic Imagines' + Astrology Based)
Background/Disclaimer: !!This is all my own interpretation based on my personal astrology knowledge and research. I consider myself an amateur!!
Contains NSFW, minors please use caution I will put all the harder nsfw headcanons under a warning in the text if you're looking for more fluffy feelings in general and would like to avoid.
Genre /: Smut, Imagines
Rating: 18+
Warnings: very jealous San, mentions of biting, unprotected s3x, collaring
Read about other members (WIP)
CHOI SAN SUN Cancer MOON Gemini MERCURY Leo VENUS Leo MARS Scorpio
✩Gemini Notes✩San as a boyfriend is (how do I put this nicely)….a lot to handle! Maybe it's just my majority Gemini/Air chart talking but dating someone like San would probably be way too much for me. But if you're a water sign girly or love being obsessed over COME ON DOWN!!
**A reader let me know I had taken down San's Venus incorrectly, his Venus is in Leo! I reread all my notes/research and I do feel happy with most of my interpretation since I did lean heavily on his Sun/Moon/Mars overall. I'll be making minor edits in green bc there are a couuuple little things I would recontextualize;
+:★:+*━━━*+:★:+*━━━*+:★:+*+:★:+*━━━*+:★:+*━━━*+:★:+*+:★:+*━━━*
San as your boyfriend gives you a giddy feeling at least every other week like the one you got when you first started dating. Firstly, you probably have NEVER been pursued this hard by a man. San wears his heart on his sleeve and has a terrible poker face, and to be honest, he isn't really trying all that hard to hide his intentions. He really was shy on your first couple dates, after he awkwardly asked you out one day (and you're pretty sure you saw one of his friends in the distance barely hidden behind a tree, making cheerleading type gestures) his cheeks completely red, but eyes looking stoically to one side. He probably had no idea you'd been crushing on him for weeks, and needed plenty of convincing to go for it from his friends. Literally everyone in your office knew him as "the hot maintenance guy" who's ears got red whenever you said goodbye to him when he was passing the front desk. On your first two dinner dates after work, he was a complete gentleman, opening your car door and every door in your way for that matter. After a couple glasses of wine he was smiling his genuine sweet smile and that Leo Mercury came into full force, he was flirting with you in every sentence, making you feel like the most special person in the world. At the end of the night, nothing more than a kiss on the cheek.
By the third dinner date, you got impatient and leaned over to whisper something in his ear as you leave the restaurant that results in you being folded in half in the backseat of his car with his deep voice panting and moaning needily in your ear. From that point on, he feeds off any boldness you give him, the floodgates open and you feel like you're going to be eaten up by him. He has you calling into work just to spend more hours in bed together type honeymoon phase.
A Leo Venus and Scorpio Mars in tandem with his Cancer Sun make him deeply passionate and emotional and these placements often experience intense limerence and can end up accidentally love-bombing their target, and they can get a little crazy internally if they perceive rejection. He's just straight up jealous and moody and you'll need to be the type of girlfriend who doesn't always give in and give him what he wants. He needs a lot of attention and reassurance that he’s important to you, he adores you and wants to be adored back. He’s a guy that likes to look good and dresses nicely to go out with you, even if it’s a little coffee date. He is reassured and calmed by physical touch from you, and he probably wants to be the little spoon sometimes even though he’s shy asking about it at first. Genuinely one of the most caring people you've met and intensely loyal. When you facetime him after work he seems so happy to see you every time and you just can talk about nothing with him, even the most throwaway parts of your day he blinks and nods intently at. One of your favorite things about him is that you can still seem to fluster him by being the one to flirt boldly, complimenting his body after the gym would have him doing those shy little scoffs, trying to hide his pleased smile and all you can think is "The nerve of this man to act flustered after the things he did to me last night". Venus Leo’s areeee just a little bit vain, San knows he looks good but loves to hear it best from you. He likes to show you off, and he's always embarrassing you by wanting to take pictures of you if you're wearing a cute outfit. He'll get you to stand a few feet away and pose, while he says "My girlfriend is seriously too pretty." to anyone that passes by too close and watches the mini photoshoot.
These Leo Mercury men can LEAP to conclusions and in tandem with his other placements he can overthink your motives or actions to a detrimental degree, driving himself anxious. He needs to know what you're up to and will double and triple text if he doesn't hear back from you quickly enough. He’s literally the “you did that without me?” 🥺☹️ boyfriend about everyyyything.
If you comment while grocery shopping that another guy has a really cool tattoo, he might be uncommonly quiet for the rest of the day and then at bedtime turn to you with his face in the most over the top pout "Should I get a tattoo? It would look sexy right?” He might come off standoffish to your friends at first (mostly out of genuine shyness) and his severe looking expression could give them the wrong impression of him, meanwhile once you get back in the car he buries his face in his hands and just sighs dramatically "They hated me". It will take a few tries but soon your friends will love him, they will be completely won over by how well he takes care of you and how he looks at you while you’re talking.
When he’s kissing you, which is as much as he can possibly get away with, his hands are always up to no good. As a couple you're constantly late to dinners or events because the second you step out of the room all dressed up, he's walking toward you with that little shy smile before reaching you and kissing you, hugging you close and groaning "Babe…" in your ear (and yes, he's already hard). He's just obsessed with the faces that you make for him and only him and he loves having you all to himself.
His emotional side can come out at the drop of a hat, like when on your first anniversary you decided to buy him flowers since you'd heard most guys never get flowers from anyone in their life and the second you hand over the bouquet to him with a big smile he's reaching up to wipe his tears. He prefers to gift jewelry, especially necklaces so you can wear a physical reminder of his love everywhere you go. As a partner, he does need a lot of mental care and support from you. His moon can make him anxious at times, even though he can try to project a constructed image of complete fearlessness and dominance, with you, his love, he lets himself feel fear, self doubt and be soft and he trusts you to protect and soothe him.

San has a thing for ownership; I won't say a breeding kink but more of an ownership one. He doesn't like other men looking at you with what he feels are impure expressions (hypocrite!) and the times that he really needs to reassert himself are probably after a night out together dancing at a club. Of course your attention was fully on him (in fact you think YOU have better grounds to be jealous when he wears shirts that show off his chest like that) but seeing other guys expressions as they watched you press your body into him drove him crazy. He gets you home and in bed, gently kissing all over your face before he orders you to get on your hands and knees before fucking you relentlessly until your arms have given out and you're facedown in the pillow, blissed out from the force of how hard he thrusts into you, feeling his strong fingers sinking punishingly into your ass. It feels like he’s using you like a toy the way he’s manipulating your body and filling the room with lewd smacks. Eventually he releases you, planting both hands on either side of you and pressing his whole body down into yours, kissing his way up your back till reaching the base of your neck. “Do you like that? Mm?” His deep voice drives you crazy and all you can do is whimper a response while he plants more sloppy kisses in the base of your neck and biting down harshly into the joint of your neck and shoulder when he feels himself about to cum, groaning loudly at the precious little sounds you let out for him as he empties inside you. He only wants to mark you all over and fill you again and again to show you who you belong to, and how good he takes care of you. He'll definitely eventually gift you a collar, the everyday wear chain type that looks like a necklace, but with a small silver lock on the front that only he has the key to.
As your relationship progresses and matures, you'll learn the right buttons to push with him out in public to have him leaning over to grip your inner thigh roughly, smiling outwardly as he leans in to whisper "just wait till I get you home".
He’s a lingerie and matching set appreciator, like the fact that you would doll yourself up and put on something uncomfortable but really sexy just for him genuinely makes him feel so soft for you…and then really really hard for you. He's really into stimulating and sucking on your breasts and nipples, and the lingerie just makes them look so amazing for him. He'd be so gentle with you while you're wearing it because he doesn't want to mess any of the delicate garments up. He just sits you down in front of the mirror with your back leaning against his chest and taking his time to touch every part of you, kissing your neck and intently watching your expression in the mirror until you're so sensitive you feel like you might cum just from him pinching your nipples through the lace. Only then does he slide his hand down to finally give some attention to your swollen clit.

Ty @cursedeastern for requesting San
(Also very new to tagging so if you do request something and prefer I not put your user in the text post or have another way to notify just lmk ♡( •ॢ◡-ॢ)✧˖° ♡ )
I'm still working on Seonghwa's because his chart is just so interesting lol I keep going off on a tangent like I'm doing an actual reading and forget to write in the romantic bits. But I'm hoping to post by this weekend.
I already had San fully formed in my mind due to my many run in's with Scorpio and Cancer men ( ╥ω╥ ) Y'all can KEEP EM' but also due to seeing his general behavior in videos...he really embodies the Cancer man to me

So we know love island!Patrick would be messy on purpose but I'm just thinking how love island!Art would be so fucking messy unintentionally.
Like going back to what you were saying about being a bombshell that seduces him. Acting loyal to his partner in front of everyone but letting you crawl into his bed in the mornings to cuddle when she leaves. Sneaking kisses in hidden corners and getting handsy with each other because he can't resist you. Telling the guys his head isn't turned just all over the place but when the next recoupling comes around he picks you and it's like he dropped a bomb in the villa because everyone truly thought he'd be the one loyal guy in the house. It'd be even funnier if he goes to the hideaway with you immediately even though he wanted to "take it slow and do it right" with his last partner lol
It'd make for some great fucking tv.
I love toxic!art ❤️ everyone is lowkey into him being a secret asshole because the whole cookie cutter wholesome boy thing was boring as hell and his relationship was bland and everyone was rolling their eyes at it - drama loving whores.
you're like a picture out of arts wettest dream. literally cherry picked for him - the type of woman he jerks off too secretly but never admits to wanting out loud. seductive and mean and flirty and no one thinks you'll turn his head but he's like wet paper. you straddle his lap during a challenge and kiss him and he can't help himself. he fucking moans into it and can't keep his hands from wandering too your ass - so fucking soft in his hands - he chases your lips when you pull back and everyone is shocked. his girl chews him out and he feels so terrible about it, promises it was just a challenge thing and he was just playing it up - avoids you like the plauge the next day - but a twist is thrown in - you get to choose a man to take to the hideaway - to spend a night with and you're like a tiger - honed in on your prey - art is like a fucking innocent little deer in your jaws. you pick him obviously and all the girls blow up. you don't care though. you only want art and you'll have him no matter how bad it makes you look or how much you're scorned for it. art swallows at the grin you give him.
he makes so many empty promises to his girl - tells her he's gonna sleep on the floor - he's not even gonna talk to her - you're obviously delusional and deranged and he doesn't even like who you are as a person - you digust him - she eventually calms down, and she's pretty sure she can trust him. all the girls are telling her so. telling her how steady art has been this whole time and that you're just a slut and a bitch and art wants a classy woman, of which you are not -
he lasts ten minutes. ten minutes in the hideaway alone with you before he's inside you - pillows knocked off the bed and your skimpy little thong pulled to the side as he slides his cock home - he hates himself, he really does - he can't even think about the consequences and how this will definitely come out and ruin everything he's built - he just can't - he can't resist you - it was hopeless from the start - and god - you're like heaven around his dick - his eyes roll back and his hips are snapping into yours immediately, fucking you how he'd never fuck his couple - fucking you like he's punishing you for making me do this - balls slapping wetly against your pussy and you're moaning into it - fingers dug into his back with your legs wrapped around his waist.
"fuck my pussy, yes, yes, yes -" you chant, licking the shell of his ear and driving him crazy. "fucking huge cock - oh my god - you need to cum in me - cum in me and fuck me all night, baby-"
jesus.

Vintagebeef and time loop?
The second-most annoying thing, he thinks, is that his crops just won't grow.
He's wanted to retire for a while now. Head out and live on a farm. Get some rest. Not have to worry about gunfire and business fronts and drugs and appearances and being in charge. He'd known he wouldn't be able to escape fully. Beef always knew he was on a timer, no matter how he tried to bury the hatchet and bury his past behind you. It always catches up.
He had a big name. He had a big life. He can't just retire from being head of Big Salmon, even if his loyal Skizzleman is the only person he told where he was going. One day, someone will catch up with him, and perhaps if he's lucky they'll turn his tractor into a car bomb. If he's unlucky, it'll be personal.
So in a lot of ways, really, the fact he keeps on waking up in the morning is a gift. It may be the same morning over and over again, sure, but he collects the eggs from his chickens, and he pats his dog, and he feeds his pigs, and he feels the sun shine on his face in a place that smells nothing like asphalt and fumes.
If his tomatoes would grow, it'd be nearly perfect, getting to wake up again and again in the sun like this. It's better than a man like him deserves, really. And it may be Wednesday, and Wednesday, and no tomorrows, but he didn't have himself much of a tomorrow anyway, and collecting the eggs from the chickens is nearly as good as harvesting the crops.
Quiet, and peaceful.
Or it should be. But see: the crops not growing are the second-most annoying thing.
The first most annoying is--
"HALLO! I have decided that this time, I am announcing I am here to assassinate you, ah? That way, you won't see it coming and manage to escape."
Beef groans and puts his head in his hands. A red dot appears on his temple.
"Don't try to run. You have a lovely home, of course, and I don't want to put holes in it. You've repaired those holes real fast, I have to say. You're a real hole expert. No, wait, that sounds terrible in English. Ah well, I'll just say it again."
It's him again.
"...hello? VintageBeef? I have been hired to kill you by your rivals? You aren't even moving. See, this is how you always get me. You do not move and I think I have killed you, then I come back in the morning and it is fixed! Very strange, very strange."
He hasn't realized it's a time loop. Somehow. Beef's tried to tell him. It's a little hard when he's busy being as annoying as possible, and ruining what would otherwise be the best chance for Beef to retire he's got.
"Well, okay, I guess I'll just pull the trigger. This is boring. You're boring, except for the part where you won't die. Hey, wait, maybe you can introduce me to your chickens instead? So next time I can bring you a totally safe chicken."
"Go away," Beef says.
"But I'm being paid so much money to kill you!" the famed assassin codenamed Iskall85 says. "We're friends, aren't we?"
"No!"
"But I've tried to do this so many ways!"
"Have you considered there's a reason it's not working?"
Iskall considers for a moment. "Naaaaah," he says, and Beef's instincts flare all at once. He dives to the ground as Iskall takes the shot. "Awww, no fair. I thought you were not moving."
"What do you want from me," Beef says.
"I mean, I feel like I've been pretty clear," Iskall says, and Beef doesn't say that he's not even asking Iskall at this point. He's asking the universe. He's asking this Wednesday. He's asking why this has happened to him.
The universe, of course, does not respond, and Beef ducks behind cover for yet another day of his peaceful time loop retirement being completely ruined.
#answered#fakezircon#ask game#a bee fic#hermitfic#hermitcraft#vintagebeef#iskall85#i am just writing these as my brain takes me btw. anyway take this bizzare trope mashup of an au#like can you IMAGINE it would be fantastic right

The Loyal Pin - Episode 9
I love that this episode started with one color-coded brother being so happy after a night of partying.
And the other one losing his color because he is internally freaking out trying to convince himself that Anin basically had sex with her best friend on the lawn for everyone and God to see because she was drunk. Keep telling yourself that lie, dear brother. I used that excuse in college too. Alcohol just makes people gay . . . er. Sure, Jan.
But we all know Anin is sexing up her girlfriend, SOBER, so now it's time for a color-coded beach trip, so TV can lie to us again that sex in the sand is romantic and not torturous. However, the skin is awfully soft after rolling around it in for a bit, so I guess beach sex has its perks beyond, you know, it being sex.
But the heteros do not understand the queer agenda and immediately start wrecking Pink Person Pin and Blue Beauty Anin's beach sex plans.
However, Ueangfah is color-coded yellow, and Pranot is in shorts, so even though it's looking bad for the lesbians, the bisexuals are thriving, and the bisexuals are ME!
Shesus Christ! Nevermind, nobody is doing well now that Kuea has shown up IN BLUE! This is actually why I stopped writing this recap because I was livid when I saw this mediocre man wearing Anin's color. The audacity of a cis hetero man will never stop amazing me. It's cool that he picked up that Pin likes her love interest in blue but he missed one important factor in that equation. HE NEEDS TO BE A GIRL! All that money, yet he can't buy a damn clue.
Yet the girls are still trying to Live, Laugh, and Love under these terrible color-coded conditions!
But Aon is playing these color-coded games too in order to get Anin's attention and wearing versions of pink and purple throughout the trip. Basically the love rivals are waging a strategic color-coded war, and if I wasn't so pissed off at them, I'd be really proud of the wardrobe department for acing this assignment and earning its paycheck.
But I AM pissed because these rivals are doing the most to get in between the ladies and make color-coded fetch happen when IT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN, GRETCHEN!
One of them even decides to go as far as DROWNING to get attention! This is like the extreme version of "instigating a fight so his hands can be on you" but because we are dealing with lesbians it's "drowning in the beach trip so her lips can be on you." And I know she didn't do it on purpose, but the structural sexism in this scene with all the men refusing to give her CPR because it wasn't proper is why feminism is for EVERYONE! There is nothing inherently sexual about lips touching lips, yet even when SAVING A LIFE, everyone made that shit sexual (INCLUDING PIN!) and I'm looking at a show set in the 50s (60s?) and feeling like it's about 2024, so now I'm pissed about it.
And this is how I know Aon is not showing her true colors because unlike everyone else who has a consistent color, she is flip flopping like those fish she almost drowned with in the water.
But it doesn't matter because now that Aon is out of commission, the girls can get a moment together to try to make beach sex happen. Spoiler: It doesn't happen because Pia is not about that "Be Gay, Do Crime" life (fun fact: public sex on a beach is illegal in most places, like Thailand).
Which means the beach sex is on hold AGAIN because the color-coded brothers must make sure they throw a party (which Pranot does not plan and it's probably why everyone hates it!), and it also means that the love rivals are at it again with the color-coded shenanigans starting with Aon, in purple.
And now Kuea enters in blue.
But my sunshine Ueangfah is looking hella fine and doing her best to bring a smile to Anin's face who is pressed that Pink Person Pin is dancing with Kuea even though it was her own color-coded brother WHO IS A PRINCE that keeps forcing Pin to do this little song-and-dance, literally. I'm gonna grab my girl Ueangfah and head out because she deserves better and by 'better,' I mean me.
Pranot is judging this entire shitshow safely from his seat because 1) he did not plan any of this so this is not his shitshow, and 2) unlike these other men, he knows better than to get in the way of lesbians and beach sex, so he makes sure to keep his ass seated and not ask none of them to dance instead opting to down this awful wine that he knows damn well does not pair well with the food. He is a king among peasants.
But because of the hard work of Prik and Pia, the real VIPs here, the color-coded girls in love finally get beach sex!
AND A PROPOSAL! A sand version of the pink sasa bunny that Anin gave Pin with A 💗 P on it holds the ring that will forever tie Anin to Pin's heart (and will cause them a lot of problems, but those are tomorrow's problem, not today's).
The girls' skin is soft (from beach sex). They are glowing (from beach sex). And they are practically engaged! All is well and they can now live happily ever after.
That is until this Blue Bastard pops back up.
He instantly clocks the ring on Pin's finger and instead of minding his own business, he apparently will make it everyone's problem because the man is determined to marry a lesbian who doesn't love him nor want him, and I am once again standing in front of y'all screaming that feminism benefits everyone including men who think they need a wife to be complete.
Pia and Prik pick up what I'm dropping off, and are backing up their girl in this battle for Pin's hand as they wear blue . . . and orange . . .
And this is where some of y'all really lost your minds because Anin wore yellow thinking it might have been connected to my babygirl Ueangfah, but have no fear because I offered a Wild Ass Theory way back in the second episode.
As the color-coded girls in love age and inherit more adult responsibilities, I think they will incorporate another color.
And those colors are the ones that belong to their mothers.
The girls have been living in a nice little bubble in Pine Palace, but Anin is a princess and Pin is not, so the expectations for their positions in life are coming at them quicker than they want to believe. Pin's mom has mentioned several times that both girls must marry, and Anin's brothers have made similar comments, so even though the girls are growing closer, I think harsh reality is already sneaking into their plans and the colors might be telling us that.
So I think the girls need to be careful or they will turn into the mothers, and because I think Pin's mom is a lesbian who vowed to be the perfect woman rather than love someone else after status tore her and her girlfriend apart, the truth might be closer than I realize, and her color-coded story is similar to the girls in more way than one.
But the colors could all be meaningless, and I could just be crazy. Who knows, you know?
#the colors mean things#the loyal pin#color coded girls in love#episode nine#I screamed when I saw her in yellow#I got theories for days#and I need all of them to be correct#I'm obsessed

Hate when I read a 'bad-parent-bruce-wayne' fic and all the kids immediately start hating him and leave the manor the second they find out, especially if he's only a bad parent to one of them because thats not how it works
They'd probably be outraged, yes, but they're all terribly loyal to Bruce. I think they'd be confused, in denial, maybe even aggressive in their defensiveness. They'd comfort their sibling, of course they would. They'd be angry at Bruce, yelling and cussing. But they'd probably also ask questions. They'd try to assure themselves that no, Bruce would never do that, not without a good reason too!
Please remember that a majority of the batfam had terrible parents, which means they're far more likely to forgive Bruce because he's 'not as bad'. Please remember that a person doesn't just change their opinion of a loved one within seconds, no matter how cruel they turn out to be. Please remember that, canonically, Bruce is a terrible parent, and his children have never really stayed angry at him, despite the man definitely deserving it.
I want more fanfics where they show the realistic back-and-forth that people have when they find out their parents are bad. Show the denial, the anger, the victim-blaming, and then the inevitable acceptance of being hurt and the process of moving on.
I want more fanfics where some siblings go non-contact and others visit on weekends and others have daily calls and none of them shit on each other for having different reactions, because it's valid to still want to see your dad, even if he's a bad person, just as its valid to want to change your name and never see him again.

So I wrote this post about Lucien deserving Elain in a fit of anger. And now I'm back with more anger because guess what guys.
Elain ALSO deserves Lucien.
I see it all the time. "Lucien deserves someone who actually likes him." Followed by bashing Elain as if she is the worst person ever and doesn't deserve love.
Please stop pretending like you're making this argument because you care about Lucien. Lucien deserves his soulmate. He deserves to have that HEA with the one person who he has a soul to soul connection with. Don't throw side characters and randos at him that do not make sense at all to his narrative or how SJM had canonized how mating bonds work. Do you honestly think Lucien is going to care that some other female wants him???? Do you even get that Lucien can easily get any female in Prythian and has gotten many of them but none of them really mattered to him the way Elain matters to him.
Listen to his words. He tells everyone he's a mated male now for a reason. He is loyal to Elain regardless of whether she is showing him desire.
Elain is a GOOD person. Just like Lucien. She is kind and thoughtful. Careful and empathetic. Strong and resilient. Elain loves with her whole heart. She loved her father when no one else could see as worthy. Not even her sisters. She loved Graysen faithfully even if he was a scumbag who didn't deserve her devotion. So, I think Elain knows what it means to love, and she is not ready to give away her heart so fast again. Especially not to someone who can see all of her.
Yes, it's hard that she isn't ready to love Lucien yet. But girl has been THROUGH it. She has been struggling with a loss of her autonomy, her future, and her identity. And all of that with the pressure of a soulmate who is a stranger. None of you can say you'd handle it perfectly either.
And guess what. Lucien, my brave and soulful man, understands that. He is the only one who acknowledged when Elain was severely depressed in ACOWAR that she suffered a trauma. He is the only one that gives her space rather than pushing his opinions or desires of what he wants her to be onto her. He knows she isn't ready. And he's waiting. Giving her space but also being present enough so she knows he is there when she is ready to get to know him. That is all he has wanted.
Jumping to the assumption that Elain "doesn't even like him" is bold. You don't know Elain's thoughts. You don't know how she really feels about Lucien as a person. We have some inklings about what she thought about the bond right after her terrible breakup that she was still mourning. We know that before Lucien left on a dangerous mission, she took a half step as if to stop him. We know that she has shown genuine care over whether he's hurt. And we know that she feels the connection to him (I can hear your heart beating through the stone) and that is never going away. We know that Elain is affected by Lucien and it's not a leap to think that she feels as drawn to him as he is to her, she just has to be ready. And maybe Elain can tell Lucien is a good male who she doesn't want to inflict her messiness on just yet. Maybe she knows to jump in too fast wouldn't be fair to him either.
So many denigrate Elain and say she is boring, selfish, or mean all because she is struggling through a tough time in her life. And even in that struggle, she still maintains her kindness. She still searches for hope. She still wants to better herself. Which sounds a lot like that mate of hers. And when she is ready to fall in love again, she will get exactly the man that she deserves. Lucien Vanserra. Because Elain deserves the unconditional love that he has to offer. Finally someone will return it back to her.
#elain archeron#pro elain#elucien#pro elucien#elain x lucien#lucien vanserra#when i say dont throw side characters at Lucien#ship who you want to ship#fanon ships are valid#what im meaning is insisting on these fanon fantasies as canonical endgame#ive shipped many fanon ships before#and trust you dont need to twist and turn the canon for your ship#just saying

What if Sephiroth was adopted by President Shinra? I know it wouldn't be the most caring environment, but what if Mr President decided "Hojo I'm afraid that your son is mine now because my son is a pussy" so now Seph is basically being raised as competition for Rufus in terms of who gets to run the company. Seph doesn't want this of course, but its not like there's a choice
President Shinra is NOT Father of the Year. And pitting Sephiroth and Rufus against each other is an extremely bad idea. But gradually, after settling in and realizing that he's NOT going back to R&D, Sephiroth is so in love with the idea of having an actual parent that he doesn't care. Plus it helps to no longer have to be abused and mistreated in a lab. He's still a weapon, yes. But now he gets to live large being pampered and spoiled by President Shinra's servants and attendants.
Growing up, Sephiroth seems to have a lot more confidence in himself this time around, dedicated and hardworking, while also feeling a greater sense of status and worth. He's a bit prideful from time to time, but still not arrogant. That tiny kernel of gentleness remains, and with less trauma from Hojo to harden his heart. He's blindly loyal to his adoptive father, always making excuses for his shortcomings, tailing him like a protective shadow and ready to give his life without a moment's notice. He loves President Shinra. Adores him. No matter how many awful, terrible things President Shinra does to the world, Sephiroth will stay by his side to the very end. And not out of a desire to one day assume the company for himself, but out of actual gratitude and devotion.
He and Rufus really do come to hate each other though. An undying loathing that has no rival. Rufus views Sephiroth as the unfairly favored son who has no right to anything, a loyal little boyscout with more loyalty than brains. Sephiroth, in turn, views Rufus as nasty and cruel, a grim reminder of Hojo. He doesn't even WANT to take over Shinra. He's totally fine with being his father's personal bodyguard for the rest of his days. But he's also very open and petty about his disdain for his brother so it's not like he makes it any easier.

Drift's Jettrine AU
Crack at the Drift Fam + Jetfire but in TFP instead of RiD.
the trine need some tweaks; sharper detailing more muted colors, but i feel like this is a good start.
i love how cohesive the Drift fam's designs are in RiD, and i need to figure out a better way to integrate that with their "new" paint jobs without completely sacrificing their color pallets.
Random Lore/Backstory:
Deadlock's was one the Decpeticon's most dangerous
The minicons backstory with Shadow Raker is still canon, with Jetfire thrown in
(JETFIRE AND SKYFIRE ARE SEPERATE ENTITIES)
While all three are Deployers, they have aeiral altmodes as well transforming into jets, with their Earth altmodes are Bede Bd-5J's specifically
i guess this technically makes them triple changers??? but that doesn't seem to be as big of a deal in the Aligned verse (gestures to the Rescuebots' (+Rescuebots Academy) whole deal in mild confusion) so i hesitate to refer them as such so yeah
Slipstream was previously known as Jetstream before she transitioned (🏳️⚧️)
Has had the hardest time breaking her stealing habits, and is very protective of what she thinks as hers (this extends to her family as well as her weaponry)
Jetstorm lost his right optic in an "accident" before he joined ShadowRaker (no one would hire a "broken ugly" minicon when there were so many perfectly functioning cute ones ready for hire
still prone to reckless rushing and the subsequent overthinking and overcorrecting (feeling the need to prove he is useful and worth his mentor's time)
Jetfire is a slight pyro maniac which he shamelessly denies even as he sticks a shatterbomb to someone
he also has a terrible luck when it comes to weather, and gets easily lost without his trinemates
Deadlock split off from Shadow Raker after being mocked/baited one too many times
Pissed, he'd planned on simply stealing Shadow Raker's favorite ship and skipping town but he ended up stumbling across the Jettrine being when he was searching for supplies
it was easier just to take them then try and weasel his way out of it, and they surprisingly went along with it
struck out on his own after a while (and needing shanix for energon for the triplets he'd picked up) and caught Megatron's eye
Joined the decepticons as a mercenary and starting getting clean, rising in the ranks. Deadlock was no 'Wave but he held Megatron's favor
when Deadlock found out Megatron still worked with Shadow Raker, he didn't take it well
the start of the deterioration of their relationship- Deadlock being outraged that Megatron tolerated someone who saw his men as objects/tools/etc from one under his command and Megatron... really not giving a shit about the details
Shadow Raker's forces were damn good at their job, they were all treated well, and he was a proven loyal decepticon, so what did it matter if he gave out punishments and stole a few things here and there (SR is obviously not stupid enough to steal from Megatron or it would be a different story)
Megatron allowed Deadlock to storm out, assigning him the occasional mission as he blew off steam and meandered
Deadlock isn't happy with the direction the Decpeticon cause is going but has no idea what to do about it (because if it pans out to nothing then he killed and committed so many war crimes for NOTHING)
his newly acquired students, however they became such, aren't particularly bothered with politics and are far more interested in what this old man has to teach them
Eventually Deadlock gets orders to return to the Nemesis to get a personal debriefing on the chain of command
thinking Megatron's finally gonna address the issues he'd been seeing, he made it in record time
... to find STARSCREAM in charge
Flat out turns on his heel and dips out at THAT shitshow
Deadlock gave the Trine their headpieces/ ornaments about a year(?) into their training, though at the time they'd been unpainted

Love your thoughts on Law 🥰 Will there be one about his possible romantic relationships or his sexual orientation?
Hi, thank you <3 I appreciate it a lot!
Will there be? I sort of did one on his possible sexual life and it covered quite a bit on romantic relationships as well: https://www.tumblr.com/l-in-the-light/759545339455930368
And I got another ask about his possible sexual orientation, so that will be covered as well soon.
Overall, I think Law would be a caring and dedicated partner in a romantic relationship, loyal to the grave type, never one to betray. His love would know no boundaries and his partner would be *always* on his mind. But it would be probably a bit heavy though, considering everything he went through. He would be always worried about losing that person, he would also sacrifice the whole world if needed just to prevent that from happening. He's like "I would drag you forcefully to safety if I have to, even against your will". Other than that he wouldn't limit their freedom.
He would also probably get quite jealous, he wouldn't admit it outloud but he would want to be the only special person for his partner. That probably would be the result of Law's slightly poor self-esteem. Which means he would also be very forgiving, even if his partner really hurt his feelings, because again, them being safe and alive is what matters the most to him. I guess one could call it pretty unconditional, selfless type of love, but also a bit martyr-like. You never should push away your own needs and feelings away for the sake of your significant other, that usually ends up in a disaster. Considering the fact he is absolute trash at talking about his own feelings, needs and fears, this would definitely lead to endless number of problems in the relationship. But everytime he opens up and allows his partner to see him as vulnerable would just matter all that much more thanks to that. It probably doesn't happen often, no matter if the partner is very understanding and caring, or not.
His attitude would still be harsh and his words cold, but his actions would make up for it. One needs to be very patient or/and very good at reading emotions to get through that facade. At times he might also act very distant or push his partner away, just because he thinks that will be better for them in the longer go or because he feels like he cares way too much. It wouldn't mean he doesn't trust them, it just shows his own problems within himself just run that deep.
I wouldn't go as far as to say he would be a terrible partner, but he sort of would be. Perhaps things would work out best with someone who has also strong issues that complement his. Someone who wants all of his attention for himself, who fears of being abandoned the most of all, who acts all reckless so Law can actually do what he wants to do the most: rescue them from trouble all the time. At first it might sound like a complete mismatch, someone who pushes away others out of fear and someone who desperately can't deal with being pushed away, but I think it has the potential in this case to overcome both of those fears. Because their attachment issues are so strong and passionate that they mirror each other and potentially can merge into something better and stronger. After all they could deliver exactly what the other lacks and yearns for. This way, maybe they can both improve each other to be better people and at the same time fill that pitless hole in their hearts. Maybe Law would even learn how to pamper his partner in ways that are easier to understand, just because he wouldn't want to hurt them and make them feel loved instead. And also create tons of heartbreak and drama once the pushing away gimmick starts. Slightly toxic.
I will leave it up to your imagination who I had in mind when writing that. Or you can drop me an ask about it :)
If anyone would want to read even more about Law and romantic relationships, feel free to drop me an ask. The more ideas/specific questions you throw my way, the more likely the answer will be more detailed and satisfying for you as well.

I was reading terrible things about Sansa Stark and now my blood is boiling. How could people HATE an 11 yr old child who has absolutely no control over her own life. They went as far as to saying the mountain-clan will kidnap her and she will marry Timit!!!!😳
They also say Sansa will remain in the Vale until the end of the last book, but have no objections to Arya and Dany on a revenge killing spree. And for God's sake don't mention Sansa with Jon. They absolutely go INSANE, saying Dany and Jon will save humanity. Dany can't save anyone if she is killing millions of people and burning others alive.
Sansa will kill LF with the help of Timit is what they say and OHHH, Jon will marry Val. How TF can Val be QINT when she is a wilding and no real princess. She looks the part as Jon says, but we ALL know what kind of woman Jon REALLY CRAVE. A high born willowy creature who brushes her hair waiting for some knight to save her.
Jon craves Sansa Stark aNd I personally believe he always HAVE. My response to "these idiots was this: (and I could be wrong) but who knows.
Alyas Karstark was a red herring. Sansa is definitely the girl in grey. Miranda also has a grey cloak that went missing and WHY would Miranda mention Jon being LC to Sansa? There is a reason for all of that. Just like Arya and Jon were to fall in love in original version, it's going to be Sansa and Jon.
Jon even says he has no sister (,5Never considered Sansa a sister) he then says “my half sister truly” (that's what he and Sansa referred to each other as) He mistakes Melsandra for Ygritte, and says all robes are GREY in the dark, yet suddenly hers were RED. Martin is a hell of a writer, and I was in denial about Sansa being the grey girl as well. Not anymore.
Sansa is getting the hell out of the Vale. There will be no kidnapping from mointain-clans or falling in love with a secondary character such as Timit. What sense would that even make? Some people act as if Sansa doesn't matter, or she is some side character when she has one of the most tragic SAD stories in the whole series. She is scared and do whatever she has to do to survive, even if it means allowing LF to kiss her and molest her in which she has NO CONTROL over. It also blows my mind how people were “shipping” (and I hate that word) Sansa Stark and the HOUND of all monsters. Sansa has had 4 FALE BEASTS in her life. Joffery, Tyrion, The Hound, and LF. These men are evil and takes advantage of a young lonely 11 yr old girl who has been captured like a butterfly in a Jar. They are evil, YES; BUT they are NOT the real BEAST.
The real BEAST is Jon Snow. As we know, Jon was already a bit ruthless before the stabbings. (I do not think Jon died that night) For ONE: We need to think about the SNOW and hypothermia which can save the lives of people who are bleeding by knife wound or gunshot would. It's simple Science. Will Jon be on the brink of death and have a Near death experience? YES. There will be a lot of chaos at Castle Black and the wildings are very loyal to Jon. Eventually they will be ruling the wall while Jon recovers along with a few other loyal CROWS that love and respect Jon.
Master Ameon had a dragon dream when him, Gilly and Sam sailed off. He couldn't shake the feeling that he needed to tell Jon Snow that “ the cold preserves.” A fan asked GRRM about Jon's resurrection, and Martin said, “You think Jon is dead do you?” Maybe he was toying around, but everyone automatically assumed he DIED when there is absolutely NO EVIDENCE.
“He never felt the 4 knife only the cold” How do we even know there was a 4th knife or any other knives afterwards? Why was Jon’s hand clumsy when he tried to pull his sword out? Did they drug him? Why was Ghost acting hostile before the stabbings? Of course Ghost knew what was up. There is no telling who is involved in the attempt on Jon's life. Melsandra told him to watch the ones who smile in his face while they sharpen their daggers. I don't even rule Satin out, as Ive said many, many times.
On the show, Ollie was Satin in my opinion. They did not want to give it away. Back to Jon and Sansa and a few other things. First I want to say, Melsandra will definitely burn Shrinee thinking Stannis is actually dead. She will play absolutely NO PART in bringing Jon back from his “coma”. It's going to be Jon's wolf who saves him and release his soul back into his body, and Ghost will die, also sliding his shadow into Jon because Jon IS GHOST.
He will definitely be a beast and he will not be the same Jon as we know him. This is where Sansa Stark ( girl in grey) will come along and temper Jon just like she did the hound. They will eventually work together and fall in love and struggle with these feelings because keep in mind, Jon and Sansa does not know each other AT ALL. Yes, he will welcome her in open arms and be extremely protective of her, and yes they will fight while trying to get their home back or when they have to rebuild Winterfell together. (The blood of Winterfell)
Sansa Stark is destined to go North because she is the only one out of all the Stark children who has her wolf buried at Winterfell, and as Melsandra like to say: “the bones remember"
#jon snow#jonsa#jon x sansa#sansa stark#jonsa meta#girl in grey#jon x sansa meta#i dont think jon died the boy in him did#jon is in a coma like bran and will warg ghost

Morality in the Dragon Prince
TDP does an excellent job weaving in several ways of moral reasoning without outright stating whether any of them are right. To wit, there exist the Big Three types of moralities: consequentialism, deontology, and virtue ethics, which we will call here (1) Outcome-driven, (2) Rule-driven, and (3) Character-driven. There are main characters who are influenced by each of these three camps.
Outcome-driven morality focuses on the ends. Creating the greatest good for the greatest number. Actions don't have values in of themselves, all that matters is what the result of those actions were, and what the benefit was. The characters who mesh most with this morality are Viren, Claudia, and Karim.
Rule-driven morality focuses on following principles and duties (like don't lie or steal), rather than consequences. Actions are inherently right or wrong, depending on whether our moral obligations were fulfilled, and are universal and impartial. The characters who mesh most with this morality are Ezran, Rayla, and Janai.
Character-driven morality rejects both of these camps. Morality isn't about achieving good outcomes or following good actions, but about cultivating good character traits such as compassion, courage, and wisdom. The idea is that pursuing virtuous behavior leads to personal flourishing, which in turn leads to good conduct. The characters who mesh most with this morality are Soren, Callum, and Amaya (i.e. the ones who are training or learning all the time).
But each of these moralities have serious pitfalls, which in turn influences the flaws of each of the characters above.
Under outcome-driven morality, the ends justify the means. It doesn't matter if Viren has to kill the princes, Claudia has to do unspeakable things, or Karim has to kill his sister. The outcomes (bright future for humanity, saving one's family, or saving one's people), at least in the minds of each person, are good, so any action taken, no matter how terrible, is justified. Hence why each of these three descend down the slippery slope of villainy pretty quickly.
No matter how dangerous. No matter how vile.
Rule-driven morality avoids this problem, but instead creates a different one: these characters become rigid and inflexible, and unable to deal with nuanced situations. Hence why Ezran gives up the crown: violence is bad, so he does what he can to avoid bloodshed, which only leads to a much larger war in Xadia. Whereas Viren and Claudia can justify too many actions, Rayla and Ezran can't justify enough to do what they should be doing.
How can I let this happen?
Character-driven morality, meanwhile, has two big problems that matter here, one impacting Soren and the other impacting Callum. The first is that virtues don't really provide clear guidance in complicated situations, so people may get roped into situations that are hard to justify. Such as...a plot to kill the princes.
The right thing? I don't know if I can do that.
The second is that what's virtuous often differs based on roles. The virtues in being a soldier (bravery, strong will, etc.) is going to be different from the virtues of being a scholar (intelligence, wisdom, etc.). But what if you are both things? What happens when what's virtuous in one role is wrong in another?
This is where Callum often finds himself in. On the one hand, being a good primal mage involves integrity, and adherence to ethical standards when using magic. Dark magic is a clear violation of that, yet on the other hand being a good prince means Callum should display duty and courage, especially in defense of those people he's loyal to. So in that case he should use dark magic if it means he can fight to protect those same people. Thus, Callum's character gets splintered into two, hard-to-reconcile halves.
Look at you. Slave to your friends, your loyalties, your pride.
There aren't any easy answers to any of these, let alone which moral code is most correct. But where these moralities succeed or fail parallels pretty closely to where these characters rise or fall.

On Aventurine and Sunday
Spoilers for Honkai: Star Rail "Penacony" arc below the cut
The Aventurine-Sunday conflict scene is so wildly misleading for what happens moving forward. Aventurine is portrayed as this jaded (pun intended) victim of circumstance who questions why the gods allow terrible things to happen and how he can be considered to be blessed with luck when his entire tribe and family were exterminated, while Sunday is portrayed as a rigidly virtuous religious zealot who wants to impose his extremely dogmatic Path on to everyone and harshly punish those he views as sinners.
But then later Aventurine is like "Actually I just have to accept what happened to me and hope it makes sense someday, and also I just have to continue to endure constant misery so that I can make my family proud who told me to have faith and be good" and Sunday is like "I Will Kill the Gods With My Own Hands and Build a Paradise for Humanity with Their Remains" like okay?????
Aventurine is built up as this person who defies destiny but then just ends up completely accepting his destiny, meanwhile Sunday actually tries to change the course of the universe and everyone else is like NO, things can NOT be better, suffering and capitalism are Inevitable and how Dare you suggest otherwise, you deranged maniac
We're encouraged to think of Aventurine's position with the IPC as sort of a status condition, a semi-convenient vehicle that belies his true personal ambitions. In contrast, when we first meet Sunday, he IS the Family for all intents and purposes, and we assume that he is the primary defender of Penacony's status quo, including all the capitalism, commercialism, and exploitation. Aventurine is framed as heroically investigating the murders and trying to give voice to the voiceless, while Sunday is framed as an oppressor who abuses his power for his own petty satisfaction.
But when everything shakes out, that's not how it is at all. In the end, everything Aventurine did for the greater good was meaningless, because the murders weren't really murders, and they likely would have come to light through Gallagher's interventions regardless of Aventurine's actions. Sure, he disrupts the status quo of Penacony, a bit, to make the Family look bad, but any noise he made completely pales in comparison to what Sunday ends up doing anyway. So the only thing he accomplishes that actually ends up mattering is sneaking the three cornerstones into Penacony, allowing the IPC to gain a foothold, specifically via his two colleagues, who, unlike him, are never framed as anything but essentially loyal to the IPC and its imperialism. Even if you hold that Sunday is evil and that what he wants must be stopped (which I obviously don't, but that's a discussion for another time), and that Aventurine's actions may have indirectly created difficulty for Sunday in that regard, Aventurine cannot be credited for helping to prevent it because he did not know that it was going to happen.
Meanwhile, Sunday is framed as cruelly torturing Aventurine, but how did that turn out? Sure, it was painful, but when you look at what actually happened, the Harmony basically gave Aventurine therapy, allowing him to reconcile with his inner child and future self, resolve his internal conflict and resentment, and face the uncertainty of the future with bravery. And can we really blame Sunday for hating Aventurine? First of all he's just lost his sister, but moreover, from Sunday's perspective, Aventurine is just another oppressor from the IPC trying to steal his planet—which he in fact is, it's just that we're encouraged to think of this as sort of a lesser/necessary evil because obviously Sunday and the Family suck.
But Sunday doesn't represent the Family or the status quo. He doesn't want things in Penacony to continue as they are, with Dreamchasers' fantasies being exploited for profit and stowaways selling body parts for a chance at an okay existence. There's no way to say it without sounding a bit ridiculous because of how cynical we've all become at the idea of utopia but—truly, all Sunday wants is for everyone to be happy forever. And he's perfectly fine shaking things up or breaking ties to make that happen, breaking the Oak Family off from the other Families, being willing to throw his foster father under the bus at the first sign of disagreement if it means protecting his sister, not even being loyal to the Aeons from whom he draws his power. Sunday's loyalty is to himself and humanity alone.
I feel confused and, frankly, a little bit lied to. I still like both characters and think that their portrayals are complex and nuanced; but it's more so the way that the narrative contorts around them in order to frame Aventurine as a hero and Sunday as a villain that annoys me. You can tell me that this is so all you want, but I have my own eyes and brain and this is not the conclusion that I would draw.

some "lefty"(socially conservative centrist who think they're left leaning or male supremacist socialists or Neoliberal capitalist) women have an odd sexual jealousy of other women and internalized misogyny which makes it hard for other women( for example: me) to really trust them and have a generally insecure offputting vibe. They often have this dead look in their eyes, let men treat them like shit, but the worst thing in the world is another woman being honest with them. They are often truamatized and laugh it off, how low expectations of men, but expect women to baby them and be an endless supply of validation or else they think she's a bitch. Like they love men no matter how ugly they treat them. They have a sick hero worship/fanaticism for misogynistic dudes that is just as bad as right-wing women. It's very sad and I try to be polite towards them but the way they talk about other women in sexually demeaning language and the general cattiness is very disturbing.
Like this one woman at college telling me she doesn't care if a man disrespects her in bed or yells at her as long as he is loyal to her. Always calling other women bitches. (Except me oddly enough, for some reason she has been nothing but nice to me, but I'm just an acquaintance) and saying violence(sexual/nonsexual) from men turns them on. Again she hasn't been cruel to me personally but I've witnessed her being fake and talking about her one female friend behind her back. So yeah I tend to keep my distance from women like that.
She's also a "I'm not a feminist cause some women are stupid" type so yikes.....💀💀💀💀
I feel bad for not being able to reach out to women like this but some of them are genuinely bordering on evil.
yeah it's so terrible when women are too deeply brainwashed into male worship like slaves but you have to just let them be who they are and move on. When she calls crying with a black eye you let her stay in your home before she goes back to him, etc.
