can't stop thinking about newly turned vampire harry with his aching baby vampire teeth. he just needs to teethe on something, his fangs tingling to bite, to gnaw, to suck, to do anything to alleviate the discomfort. he's very good at resisting against his new instincts. and then draco (human, vampire, werewolf, WHATEVER), completely unafraid, grabs harry by the jaw and yanks his mouth open to look at his fangs, slightly scolding, "stop fidgeting potter." he brushes a thumb down a fang, turning all smug and cooing when harry whines at the sensitivity from his touch. "aww, baby can't handle the pain hmm?"
he purposefully nicks his thumb on the sharp point, crying out "oops!" a bloody cut forms, the blood so fresh to harry, so full of warm flowing life, smells so much of draco that he can't stop a moan from slipping out when a drop touches his tongue. draco smirks smugly at harry losing himself to it - his half-lidded dilated eyes, his euphoric expression like he just drank from an oasis in the desert - before the realization sets in that he just had a taste. he squirms against draco's surprisingly strong hold, whimpering as draco smears his bloody thumb across harry's bottom lip, the scent now more intense and intoxicating. sheer willpower helps harry fight against the desire, the need, to sink his fangs in, but the pain from resisting and retracting his fangs is beginning to hurt more than simply giving in to his instincts.
"come on potter," draco breathes heavily across his cheek, thumb still dribbling out blood. "just bite."
#sometimes i enjoy degrading kink drarry...#when draco bullies and talks down to harry but it's ok cause it's consensual and they both (but esp harry) get randy 👍👍#vampire harry in a perpetual state of 🥺 so heroic he would rather sacrifice himself than put others (draco) through pain#but draco is DEF ok with it.. he ENCOURAGES a depraved bloody makeout where he exchanges his blood to harry via tongue#inspired by slyssnakes' recent fingers in mouth art.. depraved teeth/mouth examination YAHH#drarry#harry potter#draco malfoy#vampires#cw: blood#dmhp

me: so tired and stressed and understimulated that I am incapable of rational thought
my brain: you should write a sestina
#it does this. ALL the time.#like listen buddy i know the glyph-like structure and spiralling repetition of the endwords is weirdly soothing#but we do NOT have the brain power to cope via one of the world's most complicated poetic forms!#(my brain; sulking: well okay what if instead we wrote a heroic crown of sonnets--)

I'm crying they resurrected Jason deliberately with lazarus fluid. How are you going to copy Steph's death in Batgirls but make it boring and pointless with zero emotional weight or acknowledgement of anything Jason has the right to be mad at Bruce about. He didn't even have a gay best friend kiss him as he died.
#dc#dc rambles#Batfam#No more Steph mirroring Jason we've gone full circle with Jason mirroring Steph#Except Steph was allowed take a bullet for her gf via heroic sacrifice and get revived by said gf in a touching moment#Whereas Jason just... If you're not going to let him react to how Bruce treats him#Then get him the hell away from Bruce's books and teams#Batman spoilers

i have to speak my truth. i think timkon clone baby aus fucking suck
#rimi talks#here's the thing. you take a traumatized teenager and give them a baby. you're going to further traumatize the teen AND the baby#you take a traumatized teenager and say ''hey your bff nonconsensually cloned you while you were dead and now there's a child''........#LIKE THATS NOT GREAT. THATS NOT GREAT!#and like. if it's in-character tim is horribly depressed and grieving. kon has just successfully committed suicide via heroics and come BAC#NEITHER of them is going to be a good parent because of how they are STILL TEENAGERS THEMSELVES#and im just so fundamentally NOT interested in seeing my favs be shitty parents who unintentionally traumatize a child#.....hey wait. is that the appeal? to batman fans i mean. since. yknow. that's what batman does--#anyways ive never seen a single one of these posts that suggests the op has even heard of kon's clone rights feelings#clone baby guardian arc in sb94 you will always be fucking famous#but hey i mean why bother being in-character or anything when you can do fluff thats ooc to the point of unrecognizability i guess#this is tangentially also how i feel about people who say steph couldve kept the baby + raised it with tim. bro they were 15#but its soo much more egregious with kon because he has NO ability to consent to this. he is dead.#he forgives tim afterwards because tim already knows it was fucked up to do and he was wrong#THATS SIGNIFICANT. BECAUSE THERE *IS* SOMETHING FOR KON TO FORGIVE#frankly if kon returned from the dead and tim was like hey i cloned you and made a child. it'd destroy their relationship#he'd be sympathetic and he would be kind to the child but his ability to trust tim would be shattered by that#and again im just NOT interested in that story!!!!#and neither is anyone else who does this trope i think because no one doing this trope actually gives a shit about kon's character afaict :#OH WELL. whatever . i block and i move on and also i bitch about it in the tags on a personal post. you know how it is#now im gonna go play some more hades. ive gotta beat extreme measures 4 with every weapon

i don't know if fishman island era sanji is genuine flanderization or im somehow giving him too much and too little credit at the same time. and maybe i was just frustrated that he regressed so bad after two years on Gender Island when i erroneously assumed (after watching iva + co at impel down express that queerness is as close to the ultimate ideal of freedom that one piece is about as you can get) that he would be better for the experience. and i know im going to turn around on him by the time i get to whole cake island but literally brother can we cut this shit out lmao
#its just very frustrating having a main character's transmisogyny be a major plot thing when 100 episodes ago ANOTHER mc#like thee mc like The Main Guy's LACK of transmisogyny equally moved the plot forward#and all this during an arc where we're supposed to see how much everyone has grown and matured#fishman island#there was that bit when he first showed up again when he was like 'say hi to iva btw' and i was like oh! ok so he got slightly more normal#and then he really really really didnt#one piece#how is it possible to have such complicated emotions about character who is literally french#and like i know that iva like. i KNOW about the trans characters in one piece to come and i know theyre not drawn#like the women on okama island but people have been talking abt how the writing doesnt match the art forever and i finally get it#how are you presenting characters with complicated interiority and heroic arcs as the worst stereotype ever#sure bon clay's design was a joke to start and he's the most universally beloved character in the whole series#and they wrap it around like iva in impel down does have that whole 'you dont have to conform we are who we are by kesha' speech#everyone who is there looks exactly how they want to look bc they have the option via iva of looking different#but that doesnt excuse it!!!!!!!! it doesnt make it better!!!!!!!!!!! on the doyle lens!!!!!!!!#and again i know that two more of the most beloved characters in the series are trans and are not drawn with a joking hand. so ill wait#i'll wait for wano. save me wano arc save me. save me kiku#im literally past fishman island btw im in punk hazard now it just really still bothers me

Tumblr NERFED me the last time I tried to write this so clearly I just need to think about it
But one day I will write something about Sins of the Wreckers, and how I like to think that Tarantulas curing Verity from her radiation sickness was both a Massive Snub at Prowl for seemingly tossing away everyone once they're no longer useful to him, (including this wonderful organic who is risking her life to fix his mistakes) and also a Huge peacocking thing (aka Look Prowl, aren't I still so smart and clever?? Look, I fixed your useful organic, remember when I was useful??)
The whole thing boils down to Tarantulas, essentially bringing a bouquet of roses back from the dead for Prowl. Unfortunately for him, Prowl has the emotional availability and intelligence of an amoeba, thus rendering it a Moot Point.
#echiesechos#idw transformers#prowl#tarantulas#verity carlo#of course this involves me MASSIVELY going into the sheer heroics and bravery of Verity as well because she is one of my favorite humans#and deserves that meta As Well#i could also be massively off base im just going off what i remember i definitely need to do a reread#and THEN go off#also got the phrase about Prowl being as emotionally intelligent as an amoeba stuck in my head and had to get it out into the world#via meta about the messiest divorce i have ever seen next to megatron and Optimus

so if we go with the alien Scarabs being alien tech AND magic as the Rebirth run, and the Egyptian scarab being a symbol of regeneration and rebirth then it would make sense if it could straight up revive fuckers from the dead.
thus Dan coming back from being dead. Whole ass zombie in like the actual real meaning of zombie (corpse reanimated with magic/rituals to do labor of the behalf of its summoner) and not the colonized ass rotting vampires that white people turned the concept into.
and also just being able to heal its host in general. Which we do see that Khaji Da can heal Jaime. If we go with it was also bonded to Ted just not able to do shit for him b/c broken (stated in the 2006 run) or going off of the Ted vs Dan fight in the 1986 run Ted being unwilling to actively use the thing that tried to take over his mind and revived his mentor back from the dead but evil I still think it should offer a healing factor for him. Like certainly not as quick as what it does to Jaime who it lives inside but something passive would be neat.
Like a backhanded, 'congrats for proving yerself worthy Ted! Here's a very minor power and better keep that will power strong or I will snatch yer body' kinda thing. Something he didn't want or need but now he's got it.
will be using the 1986 run stuff cause that's fun implications but altering the end of the fight to make Ted have to be the one to put his mentor back down using Khaji's power and very much not vibing with using the Scarab after coming back to himself fully. Idk i just think itd be fun. A dangerous last resort trump card. Also b/c I wanna turn Ted into a werebug. I just think it'd be neat.
#nix meows#thinky thoughts#blue beetle#alien scarabs#ted kord#khaji da#maybe make a contrast to 1986 more 'evil' khaji to more mellow heroic 2006 khaji#via relationships to their hosts#1986!khaji starting off on a really bad foot with ted#ted being less of a good person than jaime and much more corruptable#idk just spitballing

i hate capitalism so much it's unreal
#heroically speaking#like maybe i'm being stupid but THIS sounds stupid#the value of a thing is its use and i think that's a big chunk of the problem like#in the obvious case of medical equipment or food. people need these things#they have value called people need them to live#they should not be treated as tools to artificially create profit via exploiting people's needs#and i'm not even touching all the problems in this paragraph

Being someone who fights for their family in a world that barely acknowledges Gaza’s suffering? That’s its own special kind of hell. Every time a loved one is injured, whether it’s your partner, your child, or even yourself, the doctors rush in. But don’t expect any miracles. The tools they bring aren’t fresh from pristine, state-of-the-art hospitals. They’re the leftovers of a world that has abandoned Gaza. Surgical plates aren’t delivered by some heroic supply chain. They’re pulled from the bodies of the dead, handed down like cursed heirlooms. Metal meant to heal now carries the weight of death, and infection waits to take what little hope remains.
Doctors are left with impossible decisions: amputate, scavenge through the dead for a plate to salvage, or wait for one that may never come. And the price? These plates cost more than most families in Gaza could ever afford. As resources vanish, everything becomes more expensive. It’s a cruel game with no winners, and we’re all stuck in it.
This is the reality for 26 members of my family, all just trying to stay alive. Two orphaned children. A loved one paralyzed by shrapnel that tore through her body. Her survival hinges on removing infected plates that shouldn’t even exist in her story. Every hour that passes steals more of her future while the world stands still. And yes, you’ve probably seen the video of her injuries shared before. In case you missed it: Link.
This isn’t just about my family. This is Gaza. It’s about a world that watches genocide unfold and calls it politics. A world that stands silent as families like mine scrape by with nothing but scraps, while doctors stitch together lives using whatever’s left behind. But here’s the thing, we won’t let this be the end. Hope is still a choice we make every single day, even when the world seems to have forgotten how to care.
Please help my family in Gaza get a chance to survive. Click the link. Donate if you can and reblog to spread our story.

my sea wolf is named Thorgeim Merlskyfkyn; since roe surnames are gendered by -syn/-wyn suffixes (meaning son/daughter), i did some linguistic research and decided -kyn would be the most likely gender-neutral suffix (derived from 'klin/klind' meaning child, but not -klyn, as 'klyn' already means 'small')
so! they chose their current name! per my character notes:
They were born into a pirate's life as Ofangeim Merlskyfwyn. Always on the heels of their father, Merlskyf, they were a formidable little Sea Wolf since they were old enough to carry an axe, unafraid of much larger opponents. However, when they elected to change their surname from Merlskyfwyn to Merlskyfkyn, a rift began to grow between them and their traditionalist crew-family. Eventually the tension became too much, and, so far as their family knew, they simply vanished at the docks one day.
they replaced 'ofan' (clear) with 'thor' (pronounced 'tor', meaning torn, symbolizing their choice to tear away from their family), but kept 'geim' (meaning jewel)
common nicknames include 'torgi' (with torgy/torgie as valid permutations) and 'shark'. it's also fine to address them as 'captain' since that's their rank in the maelstrom. they'll roll with almost anything they recognize as referring to them though
sorta the same deal with pronouns; any pronouns are fine, but they don't particularly like being referred to as a woman or man (or worse, boy/girl). the only time that's allowed is if it's For The Bit, or if they're dealing with literal children (and even then they'll correct it before they draw their axe)
Roegadyn players, tell me about your character's name!
What was your thought process behind it? Does it mean something important? Does it follow Sea Wolf/Hellsguard conventions or does it draw on other cultures? Is it the same as their birth name or has it changed? Can other people pronounce it? Do they go by any nicknames or shorten it for convenience?
#have decided that Emmanellain only canonically referred to them as 'old girl' once and they just. grinned homicidally#and gave him a very quick lesson about sea wolf surnames before requesting he revise that fun little nickname to 'friend' or the like#while making it very clear that they weren't ~threatening~ him but rather correcting an error in etiquette. lmfao#they're not a murderhobo but they ARE unquestionably brutal and have a Reputation. their nickname in limsa is 'the admiral's pet shark'#and they take their captain rank pretty seriously despite appearances. they also take their WoL role seriously (also despite appearances)#but that's mostly related to their belief in karma-farming (basically they think the best way to be lucky is to surround one's self with--#--lucky people. so if they BECOME lucky for the people around them via various heroics then thorgeim will in turn become extra lucky)#(granted they've had their faith in that shaken quite a bit but that's why they took so quickly to astrologian practices lmfao)#(outside of that they're pretty exclusively a warrior. shockingly not a rogue though i'm eyeballing viper after the next expac comes out)#(also Maybe reaper?? they do need some kind of dps class imo but rogue doesn't suit them. they're not even a little bit stealthy.)#ffxiv#stirring up trouble#long post#also: prev i love your roes!!! Eliloh in particular feels like the kind of soft-spite-for-other-rpers character i'd make. absolutely a vibe#but i love all of them. poor merlgraeb and gilded antler...maybe it'll work out in another lifetime ;w;

I think it’s interesting in rgu how Utena’s aspiration of being a prince is not only hurtful to Anthy but also serves a sort of double purpose in Utena’s life wherein it allows her to express aspects of her gender expression and sexuality without having to really confront them directly, and a lot of the most important moments in her character arc are moments where she has to confront those things without relying on it.
Utena saying at the end that the only times she was really happy was when she was with Anthy is so important because it’s not just her presence that changes Anthy’s life but the reverse is true as well, and the idea that she is acting solely on some sort of heroic noble mission separate from her own feelings at times allows her to kind of sidestep the vulnerability of admitting that. It’s after Dios has urged her to give up, saying that she’s done all she could and giving her a way out and into complacency that would still leave her ego and dream of keeping her promise to Dios partially intact, but it wasn’t ever really her promise to Dios that mattered but her promise to Anthy both as a child and once she knows her that matters.
It’s also really interesting that the first time she says no to Akio she says it’s because she wants to stay true to her prince—it’s an idea that gives her a way to momentarily reject his advances without acknowledging that her own feelings should be reason enough, and shows how she feels that appealing to (even an abstract) patriarchal figure gives validity to her own feelings that they wouldn’t have on their own.
Episodes 12 and 37 are also really interesting in that they both begin when Utena has realized that she does not truly know or understand Anthy and feels betrayed by her, and she temporarily renounces her role of “protecting” her only to realize that her relationship with Anthy is deeply important to her personally even outside of that dynamic, as is her masculinity/gender expression, but in order to express this realization she ultimately returns to that dynamic (trying to protect Anthy via the dueling system) in both cases because she cannot yet imagine another way. It’s not until she fails at being a prince that she succeeds in expressing her true feelings and escaping the academy/the structure it represents (and inspiring Anthy to do the same) because those things were never truly compatible to begin with.
#I promise I will talk about things other than rgu on this blog at some point#I only have one season of Black Sails and IWTV left! and I will have lots of thoughts when I’m done#I just need to sit down and finish them#anyway I know all these themes in Utena have been rehashed a lot I just like talking about them so#rgu#revolutionary girl utena#mine

I love those incorrect Wayne family posts where a baby bat (usually dick) calls Bruce to be like … so the house is on fire….
But what’s infinitely funnier
Is the fact that
Dicks house blew up, the circus was burned down, everyone he so much as brushed shoulders with on the street was being gunned down, his last link to learning his language lost.
He then finds out all of this happened due to a traffic jam, watched a man die in front of him, had a panic attack on a rooftop, had…stuff that’s less than savory and I will not discuss done to him on said rooftop by a former FBI agent who was sisters with the district attorney.
And he still didnt call Bruce.
Dick Grayson would rather commit suicide via radioactive city than ask Bruce Wayne for a dime.
and the best part is when its not Dick its Tim
the boy who invented a fake uncle so CPS couldn't fuck with him and he didn't wanna ask Bruce to adopt him
Bruce adopted Dick so that Tims fanboy instincts (I got adopted by one direction au except its the last survivor of a niche acrobat troupe you were obsessed with as pre-teen) would override his repulsion at asking Bruce for help.
Like Tim calls Dick for help with casework and goes "only bruce is free... guess ill just die then lol"
and when Dick needs help... he calls superman (not bruce) or the titans (who hate bruce) or he also goes "well Ive had a good run let me see if I can mask this attempt on my life as a last bid at heroics"
Bruce would cry tears of pure joy if Dick or Tim called him for help with anything ever. (after testing to see if the weren't replaced by clones and also half expecting this to be a case of being trapped in a dreamworld)
like the rest of the kids also wouldn't call Bruce but these two are the ones who like bruce (mostly in Tims case.... Occasionally in Dicks but yeah)
there's Cass but she fought Wonder Woman and broke into stephs, babs, dicks and Bruces places for shits and giggles she's not asking anyone for shit.
