#BUT NOW HERE I AM!

[haisuken]

final thoughts after re-reading tokrev for the 2nd time!

- had to make this a one post because if i do multiple I’ll flood the dash more than I already did 😁🙏 errmmm spoilers!

this is chapter 278 btw like the “last” chapter of the manga !! tb to when I first read this when it came out and i CRIED embarrassing.

— chifuyu starting the chapter in HIS pov was the best idea imo, he’s such a prominent character the whole manga he deserves to end off the manga 🫵🏽

— mikey being a motorcycle racer is such a good idea idk who came up with that but it’s genius and i love it, it literally fits him so well like no joke 😭

— AND DRAKEN being on his mechanical team is PERFECT!!!! them staying together is BEAUTIFUL to me 🙏

— koko and kisaki being business men is very on brand for them since they’re both really really smart but them being business PARTNERS was never something I expected, lowkey I thought we’d see kisaki & hanma together still

— another random thing for me is izana being a director of a non-profit?? like ?? but at least he helped orphans !!!

— ^^ plus mucho being with izana is also interesting I feel like he’d be a business man so like ? BUT kaku helping with orphans is cute and I def see that for him & izana :)

— the haitani’s running a club is VERY on brand for them like I wasn’t even surprised when I first read it 😭 I saw someone say one of them was a DJ ? idk where that came from but sure ‼️

— the akashi siblings (haru & senju) being YouTubers is so fucking funny to me like where tf did that come from 😭 why are they YouTubers??? who thought of that idea 😭😭 pls I need more ppl to talk about it like I never really paid attention to it before so now that I reread it I’m like ??? 😭😭

— but takeomi being a PRODUCER is so fucking silly and I support him in it because he’s so that type of person 😭 he’s definitely the scooter braun of tokrev but not evil as fuck

— are we even surprised shinchiro runs a bike shop? absolutely not 😭 like that’s his entire personality half the manga VERY very on brand for him + he looks good 😁🙏

— inupi working with him is so cute I love inupi sm and he doesn’t have his scar so I think that means he was saved/the fire never happened and I’m happy for him he deserves happiness 🥺🫵🏽

— waka & benkei running a gym is nothing new, and I’m glad they stuck to it in the end 😁

— south makes me giggle hes a fighter which is literally PERFECT for him like it’s so fitting 😭

— not surprised taiju owns restaurants because I think if I’m not mistaken in all the timelines he owns a restaurant like he was definitely destined for it

— hakkai being a model is PERFECT and yuzuha as his manager is BEAUTIFUL like VERY VERY MY STYLE absolutely adore them both!

— MITSUYA AS A FASHION DESIGNER IM SO PROUD OF HIM THIS ENTIRE SERIES HES BEEN A FREAKING DESIGNER AND HES SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO TALENTED AND I LOVE HIM IF YOU COULDNT TELL 😻😻🙀🙀🙀🙀‼️‼️😁😭😭😁‼️‼️

— the beaver duo wbk are rich af and do real estate!

— the twins running a ramen restaurant is so interesting to be because like ik they do it in another timeline BUT like where did that come from 😭

— ngl…as much as I adore hanma being free and being a freelance photographer I feel like it’s very random and not that fitting……like wdym he isn’t with kisaki…IDK BUT HAPPY FOR HIM !!

— naoto looks so silly but I love his journalist job and emma being a house wife I support it but like we couldn’t give my girl, who is a strong and independent woman, her own job? although ik she loves draken and i support them fully so if she’s happy then 😒

— BAJI, FUYU, AND TORA BEING TOGETHER AND WORKING TOGETHER SOBBING SO HARD IM SO HAPPY FOR THEM BAJI IS GONNA BE A VET SOBS AS HE SHOULD FR FR 😭😭😭‼️‼️

— and michi + hina FINALLY getting married 🙏

overall good ending, kinda crazy ngl because technically now the entirety of the manga doesn’t technically exist since they end up going back and fixing it all in the end with the final time leap BUT still so good 😁🙏‼️

Hey now, Let her cook!

[words-writ-in-starlight]

honestly my mother was a huge champ about her eight-year-old asking to be bought an unabridged edition of the Odyssey for a birthday present, and then she was an equally huge champ about reading her eight-year-old the unabridged Odyssey as a bedtime story and pausing every four lines to define something for me, and let me just say that I have fucking TREASURED the opportunity to reverse that old tradition by more or less forcing her to sit on my couch and listen to Epic and pause it every four lines for my dissertation

(ID in ALT text) i gotta admit, start of this year was mostly me drawing a bunch of outfits (don't ask me if sokka or suki got the most... i think sokka) if you like these, check out my zuko here as well! these are still influenced by @ranilla-bean fic the iconoclast fic.

Got inspired, made something, hope you enjoy.

Pretty accurate if I do say so myself.

Hot take and not to be a killjoy or the shipping police but people treating Viktor or Jinx's aroace headcanons as if they were canon is not the revolutionary take people think it is.

Headcanons are always all right but we have to acknowledge that they are somehow damaging when they apply to stereotypes. It might not be the case for everyone but most of the time people unconsciously assume that disability/mental illness=asexuality. These headcanons erase the freedom of attraction from people who are already seen as unable to have sexual/romantic experiences/desires, when it's completely untrue and harmful.

You can headcanon Viktor and Jinx as aroace, but I have seen people changing their minds once Viktor is no longer disabled (s2 with all of his other forms) and Jinx is no longer as mentally ill (alternate universe Powder). And it speaks wonders of how people see these characters.

"I never thought about Jinx being able to feel romantic/sexual attraction until s2!" To believe she's actually only capable of that when she's not "damaged" is incredibly disturbing. Especially since Jinx has always had a bit of a flirty personality too.

"I've always seen Viktor as asexual, I don't know why!" That's fine. You can headcanon him as ace. But I believe there is a reason behind it, most of the time, if for some inexplicable reason the "vibes" of the disabled character are making you think he's ace.

I say all of this being aroaspec myself, by the way. Headcanon all you want but going to people's posts commenting how "it's weird for you that they have romantic/sexual plots when they're clearly aroace" is not a win at all. It's a headcanon, after all, and it should be treated as such, and that's fine. But it also is damaging to spread stereotypes like these.

Of course the disabled character is asexual. Of course the mentally ill character is aromantic. It's not as revolutionary as you might think, tbh.

Fandom is not activism and it's all right to have any headcanons you want BUT some of them are filled with damaging stuff and perhaps we should look into ourselves more before treating these assumptions as something canon.

I can't keep being fundamentally changed as a person by animated movies, it's just not sustainable.
