#Eugene Ling

Between Midnight and Dawn (Prowl Car, 1950)

"Your girlfriend seems kinda worried about something."

"So she's afraid of cops. So what's that prove?"

"I'll tell ya later."

Port of New York (1949)

My rating: 4/10

Somewhat remarkable for being Yul Brynner's movie debut (with hair, even!), but otherwise pretty stodgy and dull.

I’m loving this novel because it’s still not clear who the male lead is. Usually in danmei, the ML is established right away. But in This Player Must be Using Plug-ins! (alt. title: This Character is Suspected of Cheating!), there are multiple men who can possibly be the ML.

I’m gonna have to double check later if this is actually a harem—which is unlikely since I don’t bookmark harem. But even if it were, I don’t think I'll mind coz their relationship with He Yu, the main character, have been built up so naturally.

Anyways, the ML candidates so far:

Wanrenzhan (a title, not actually his name. Literally means Ten Thousand Kills) - first one that MC met. He's been subjected to many of He Yu's schemes that for the entire second arc he keeps yapping about how he'll definitely exact his revenge on him one day. I thought he was just gonna be that stupid, annoying cannon fodder who exists simply for the MC to face-slap, but surprise, surprise, he’s the first among the candidates to have his romantic awakening haha

Zhen Xing - second one who met MC. The most powerful and popular player in this competition. He Yu once stole his equipment while riding on a giant monster fish, and this impressed Zhen Xing so much that he's been bugging him for a fight so he can compare their skills. Possible ML candidate because this is an unlimited flow, and in such genre, the ML is usually the most impressive one. And among the candidates, it was through his POV that He Yu was first described to be both fragile and beautiful. Also rushed to save He Yu and catch him as he fell. Typical ML saving the MC behavior

Eugene - the cyborg guy. Was also impressed by MC during their first meeting (He Yu had driven the giant monster fish to the island then made a dramatic and graceful landing, which was in stark contrast to Eugene’s haggard state). Second in strength to Zhen Xing, and like Zhen Xing, he joined the Dawn Training School copy just to meet He Yu again. Generally friendly towards He Yu, but in the beginning he didn’t care if Wanrenzhan managed to kill him. Now, however, he and Zhen Xing are like He Yu’s most loyal followers.

Ling Buchen - Hasn't met He Yu yet, but he’s currently watching the live broadcast of him. They’re both from Blue Star, so they may cooperate in the future. He Yu has also heard a lot about him because he’s been making a name for himself in this competition.

Theres a lot to go over here so bear with the word vomit and. image vomit.

The Vanderblum family is ling standing wizarding family. Theyve been around for centuries, much like many pureblood families. The difference is, they stopped being regarded as a pureblood lineage. From the founder(term being used loosely) of the Vanderblum family; Wiley Vanderblum, the family was totally pureblooded. However, like the Malfoy family they were strictly against inbreeding. However unlike the Malfoy family they never became regarded as a Sacred 28 family, nor do they have any relation to the Sacred 28 families.

Ira Vanderblum was the defecter of the family who married a Part Veela and subsequently has two Part Veela sons. His father Eugene, the tradtional man that he was, was openly disaproving of their marriage. Ira's mother sided with Eugene and eventually Ira moved him and Maizey to the British Isles, where he family was originally from further inland. Idris, the other of Iras sons looked more like his mother, as hed inherited her red hair and green eyes, whereas Hayward was almost a carbon copy of his father. The only difference being the stark white parts of his hair.

The other side of the family, the Eilanders were a family of mostly Irish wizards. From what is known about them, their line always had traces of Veela blood, as Oisìn Eilander had had two Half Veela sons with an unknown, or multiple, unknown Veela. Both Married halfblooded witches. Penka Eilanders mother, however is half Veela as well, making her 1/4 veela whereas her cousins are all 1/8 veela.

Ira, was not a good father. Despite the mandate by the Ministry against Underage magic use, Ira pushed his sons to learn magic faster to be better than their peers. If they ever made a mistake, he would spell them. Most of the spells they boys sport are from their father. Ira pit his sons against eachothwr for a long time, having then use eachother as test dummies for spells. That was until he died. The offical story was that his age had clouded his mind, and he happened to walk into a dementor on the grounds of their estate. The real story was that Hayward had finally snapped and an unfortunatetly timed spell put his father in the path of a dementor.

Of them, Idris is the oldest followed by Deckard by about two years, and then Hayward and Penka by another five. (When Idris was in his seventh year, Deckard was in his fifth and Hayward and Penka werent even in school). Idris was in fact present for the battle of Hogwarts, he suffered a disabling injury that happened to sever a nerve in Idris's leg as well as shatter the bones, rendering it unusable for years. Now in his 30's he has partial mobility with and without a cane, however that was only after years of physical therapy. Hayward and Penka started school seven years after. (In canon terms they would be third years when MC starts school)

Just before his sixth year of hogwarts, Hayward killed her father. He finally snapped during an argument and pushed his father into the path of a dementor that got into the grounds of their manor. Idris was present for this, but was unable to stop what happened. Hayward, understsble went a bit mad. Hed just killed his father, by proxy, but still. He was seventeen and he was a murderer. Surely he'd be thrown in Azkaban for the rest of the life, hed never finish school, hed never work in the ministry, Hed never amount to anything. But of course, not wanting to lose any more of his family, Idris helped Hayward cover up the accident. To this day they are the only two that know the truth.

Deckard Vanderblum was Dorothy's way if competing with her brother. While they didnt attend the same schools, Deckard and Idris were actually quite close. Despite the rivalry between their parents. Deckard was very quick to become the scapegoat of the family, he absolutely refused to be a tool for his mother and openly despises the way she raised him. He moved out as soon as he graduated from Beuxbatons. Where Idris went on to become an Auror, Deckard practiced less wizarding aligned careers. For a time though, he was in quite a dark place, alone with a mind that was just a little too loud for him. With help, he got himself together and hes doing much better, but its quite evident that Deckard isnt, and frankly never was, all the way there.

Penka Eilander attended Durmstrang. It wouldnt be wrong to say that she seems too soft to handle it, but she holds her own much better than most expect her to. Thats mostly because she, unlike many, knows how to pick her battles. She knows what she can afford to say and do, and when to simply shut up. Shes the oldest in her side of the family, and outside of school often gets saddled with looking after her baby cousins. She doesnt mind too terribly, she understands her aunt needs a break sometimes, but she wishes her cousins werent such nightmares.

Shock (1946)

My rating: 5/10

Solid plot idea, executed rather blandly.

[anxiouspotatorants]

1899 modern village AU thoughts because I want to:

Elliot is alive and recovering from a serious illness that nearly destroyed the family and became the catalyst for Maura breaking free from not just Henry but Ciaran. Basically Ciaran brought the worst of Maura out during the hospitalization process and it broke their relationship. 

Maura and Daniel decided as a unit to move far away and start fresh. They both got lecturing jobs at an up-and coming university on the coast, and went house hunting in the neighbouring villages. They fell in love with a cottage in a tiny fishing town and bought it.

The town is called Kerberos. Its official population is a little under 2,000. Their main source of employment is the fishing industry, with a predominant French research group and a small fishing company run by migrated Germans. There’s a dominating immigrant population in town due to the fishing jobs, mostly from Germany but also Denmark, Hong Kong, Spain, Poland and more.

Maura and Daniel work at Prometheus University. Maura takes a break from experiments in favour of teaching neuroscience, but soon enough she gets into research again and works on projects with her colleagues. 

Daniel works with computer science and insists that all of his students enroll in one ethics-themed subject.

There aren’t enough kids in town for there to be a school, so Elliot has to commute to an elementary in a nearby town. There’s a school bus that ends up collecting him and Ada every morning and drops them off every afternoon.

The Franklin-Solace family (no way Maura kept the Singleton name), live side by side with Eyk, who’s in charge of the largest (and only) fishing company in town. He’s in therapy and recovery after the aftermath of a tragic family incident, and bonds quickly with his neighbours. Maura and him talk a lot about loss. He’s on endearing grunt-terms with Daniel. Elliot thinks he’s a bit weird, but likes asking him about nautical facts and showing him pictures of bugs.

Ada’s family owns a pub that they’ve styled in their home country fashion. Iben is a strict matriarch and both of the older children work at the pub at least part time. Tove has complete control over the German fishers (often pretending to cut off Franz) while Krester is a little clumsy with orders. 

A lot of the fishers live in a larger apartment block or in smaller groups in smaller houses. Franz, Wilhelm and Eugen live together, while Olek bunks with Darrel and Landon, as well as Jérôme when he moves to town.

Jérôme works on the French side of the docks and applied to get transferred over because he has a bone to pick with Lucien. Him and Clémence grow close quickly, and frankly the French trio becomes a mess on all sides and directions.

Lucien scammed his way into becoming the top representative for the French research team, but the real leader on this side is Virginia Wilson, who is also the town’s collector of gossip. She knows everything about everyone and cannot stand being left in the dark.

Ling Yi and Yuk Je moved to town a couple of years ago when Yuk Je got a managerial job for the docks. Ling Yi is enrolled to Prometheus and decides to take Maura’s class out of curiosity. She often spends hours at the campus library reading syllabus next to Olek, who is taking computer science part-time alongside his job on the docks.

Olek and Krester both take computer science, but Krester is on full-time. Krester also gets into an affair with a Spanish art history lecturer, which gets super awkward when said lecturer takes his Portuguese boyfriend for lunch at Krester’s family restaurant.

When Sebastian comes back from sea, Maura and Daniel tense up because they recognize him as a former colleague at Henry Singleton’s company. They might never get along, but the three get used to living in the same town.

Clémence joined Lucien when he was moved to Kerberos but doesn’t really have much to do so she tries to make projects for herself. She befriends Tove and starts taking random classes at Prometheus in search of a passion.

Ramiro has an explosive on-again-off-again relationship with Ángel and picks up work at the German docks to get some space. He also finds a weird companionship by discussing religion with Anker at the pub.

The amount of cultural exchange and multilingual antics in town is hilarious. The pub has Danish titles for their meals. The Germans sing sea shanties on late nights there and teach them to Tove. Daniel and Elliot gossip in Welsh when they don’t want anyone else to understand. Ling Yi and Olek are learning each other’s birth languages behind each other’s backs as a surprise. Ángel tries to convince Krester to get boquerones on the menu. As one of her antics, Clémence organizes a French New Wave screening festival. Virginia insists on trying to make the national holidays of every represented country in town official days off in Kerberos.

Eyk tries to take the kids fishing once, but Elliot finds the other fishermen scary and prefers the look of shellfish anyway. 

Ada steals Maura’s research notes while she’s eating dinner at the pub once and begs to be taken under her wing immediately.

Maura and Daniel have a fascination with late 60′s-early 70s music and style, which is reflected in the interior of their new home. There are a lot of jokes at the expense of their wallpaper.

Maura and Daniel have lunch together every day on campus and become the it-couple for students who are craving gossip out of boredom and procrastination. One time Eyk visits and sits down for lunch with Maura alone, causing all of the students to theorize that there’s a split or a love triangle. When he visits again and Daniel joins them for lunch, some of the same students jump from being ‘team Solace’ or ‘team Captain’ to shipping them as a trio. Daniel’s the first to find out because Olek snitches, and he laughs so hard he loses his breath.

Who would be best dad(or dads) in Descendants and why you'd think so?

First of all, belated Happy New Year. I know you sent the question back at the end of December but I needed time to answer because there are a lot of characters and things to take into account.

I’d start to say that I don’t consider the live-action movies too much, but there are things in those that could help us better understand/extend the perception of the characters. King Beast, for instance, could have fallen victim of his past when raising Ben, if his father was like depicted in the L-A movie, Adam had no good father figure to reference and inevitably fell into his own father’s patterns from time to time (but Descendants is still guilty of character assassination for both him and Belle, they are very much not how I’d imagine them being as parents). Kit, on the contrary, can’t possibly be how Chad’s father must be read of, because Kit had an excellent father of his own and I don’t think he’d stray too much from that line. Philip... well, Queen Ingrith was a terrible person in the Maleficent 2 movie while his father was pretty much a doormat but, really, the Maleficent movies have nothing to do with Descendants (aside from the obvious, Leah is very much dead in those, isn’t she?) so that surely doesn’t count. I can’t even remember the Mulan L-A so that doesn’t count either.

So I mostly stick to the canon from the cartoons.

That’s long.

That said, I’d start: none of the royals would win the “best dad” award. Not out of a malicious intent or character traits (I mean, what exactly do we know of Snow White’s prince? Not even his name! So how could I estabilish what kind of father could he be?) but simply because they would be too busy to be actively in their kids’ lives. Ruling is lousy, busy and a full time job with no real free time, I don’t think Philip, Henry-Christophe, Frederick (Cinderella and Snow’s princes respectively) and Eric would have much time to spend with their kids, although we can argue we saw Eric being a father in TLM2 and he isn’t too bad, save for a few understandable mistakes. In fact, I guess Eric may be the best father of this group.

Naveen, as he was disowned before the movie and ended up working with Tiana to make a living, could have had a better chance to be a parent and with all the growth he underwent, plus with Tiana telling him stories of her own father, he’d be a rather good one.

About the ones married into royalty like Aladdin and Eugene, they must have had to strive to keep a standard and aid their wives in their ruling, which would leave little chance to parent well, althought they, as orphans, would try a lot harder to be present for their kids than the born-royals would, but could also make more mistakes since they had no example to follow as they grew up. Yao, Ling and Chien Po would be in a similar predicament, but there are three of them married to sisters so it’s possible they would have time to be fathers by alternating duties so they’d handle it better. A case aside is Kristoff because we know Anna and Elsa’s parents did raise their daughters personally, so it’s possible Arendelle is low maintainance as a kingdom and/or Anna would and could handle things on her own with Elsa’s help, so Kristoff could be a dad as much as he’d like and I think he’d be the awkward, weird dad his kids love and are embarrassed of at the same time, a good kind anyway.

I think it’s pretty much estabilished Shang would be a good enough parent, both because he used to have a great relationship with his own dad, and because he’d have Mulan and her whole family with him, and simply because Lonnie and Li’l Shang (I hate those names, but that’s another matter) seem very good kids, as well-adjusted as AKs could be.

Phoebus is a good dad by canon, this is inconfutable. Quasimodo would try his best, especially because he’d try to be the opposite of his own father-figure, provided Madeleine wasn’t sent to the Isle for her past as a thief, otherwise I don’t think he’d have children at all, he’d be too heartbroken by losing love twice to try again (here, I made myself sad, sorry).

The Genie would be great too! Jordan seems pretty well-adjusted and if we also believe in the theory Coach Jenkins is actually the Genie, hey, we know he gives great life advice to kids. In fact, I think he’d win for Best Dad, hands down.

You know who’d be a fun dad? Lumière! Not sure if in the top 3, but a good one for sure. I think all the dwarves would be good fathers too, they are good people and would care a lot for sure.

Roger would be a rather normal father, super busy with all those dogs, sure, but he’d have plenty of bonding time with his kid/s, teaching them to sing and play different instruments, anything about dog care, he’s a funny man with lots of good traits, I see no reason for him not to be a good dad.

Hercules... oh, dear, here comes my mythology knowledge, and he was a dreadful father in the myths. Aside from the fact he killed his kids and his first wife (but that was because of a godly curse), he isn’t shown to ever interact with his other progeny, actively abandoning them when he ascended to Olympus and married Hebe. BUUUT! This is the Disney version we’re talking about, and this Hercules had two very great set of parents, the biological and adoptive, so he must have learned a lot from both Amphitryon and Zeus. Let’s just say a good enough one. (we do ignore the name Herkie for his son, yes? I have totally to put myself to finish writing that post about the real names of the Desc Kids).

Still about myths, Arthur is a wild card, either we ignore the arthurian lore in its entirety, say he married a regular girl and he balanced between being a king and a good enough dad, or we go down the rabbit hole so he’s a cheated-on bitter man who is unsure whose child he’s raising, his or Lancelot’s, or even pull in the whole Mordred affair, but that’s very much too dark for Disney. A balance could be he had an amicable divorce with Gwenevere, Artie (yes, a stupid name again) is far too similar to him to have doubts so he’s fine, but they have a bit of a strained relationship because Artie doesn’t really know why his parents split up and Arthur refuses to speak about it. In fact, due to the divorce, Artie was raised more by Merlin than by his own parents.

Uuuh, who’s left? There are so many characters! Well, let’s say for the good guys I’ve said enough.

About the Villains, though...

Facilier is canonically one very good dad, no one will be able to take that out of my head. In fact, I suspect he may be the best father of the Isle of the Lost.

Smee seems like a loving dad, at the very least. I also headcanon he helped a lot in raising Harriet, Harry and CJ and they see him as the good uncle who will help them as much as he can, with the only exception of putting himself against Captain Hook (but he’d still try to placate his rage fits, and the Hook children know this very well).

In this regard, I think all the ones who fall in the minions category (Le Fou, Smee, Jasper and Horace,...) could be decent enough dads. With this I mean: normal parents, with ups and downs, who try to provide for their kids and teach them stuff, although they may not be good enough to be defined excellent. About the same could be said of the “minor offenders“, so the ones who committed not incredibly nefarious crimes, usually that kind of people aren’t that bad with their own.

Okay, this was long enough.

To sum up, I’d say my top 3 is:

Genie

Facilier

Shang and Phoebus (on par)

Plus, honorable mentions for Roger, Smee and Eric.

Characters that have been rejected from the showdown

Notes: Please don’t send us angry asks about any of these, it’s just going to make us less likely to take the character. If you’d like to explain why you think they count feel free to send us an ask.

Ling Yao (Fullmetal Alchemist): Didn’t find the info, and he doesn’t seem to count

Nagito Komaeda (Danganronpa): submitter was annoying and I didn’t like the content much among other things

Satoko Hojo (Higurashi When They Cry): Too many images of the character dressed weirdly for the age range she is for me to want to actually read the wiki for the character

Alluka Zoldyck (Hunter x Hunter): At this point, we just honestly don’t feel like dealing with this character as we have been unable to get a solid argument.

Clarissa (Dead Mount Death Play): Over sexualized and didn’t vibe with it

Jon Connington (Game of Thrones): it’s game of thrones so no

Kaname Date (AI: The Somnium Files): Too many mentions of his obsession with pornography to be comfortable adding without a seriously good argument

Dr doofenshmirtz (Phineas and Ferb): Lack of evidence on wiki, need more

Dr Carmilla (The Mechanisms): Too close to real world

Terezi Pyrope (Homestuck): Don’t want to do homestuck

Curran (Dragalia Lost): Needs evidence the wiki was less than helpful

Maedhros (The Silmarillion): Needs really good argument as I am not compelled yet as the guy he’s shipped with is his like half cousin or some shit

Noise (Roleslaying with Roman): part of sanders sides which I don’t feel like dealing with

Meg Corbyn (Novels of the Others): needs more justification/ evidence

Rand al’Thor (Wheel of Time books): submitted for polyamory but as far as I can tell that wasn’t something he chose, would maybe accept an argument for bi if given one

Iroha (Diamond in the Rough): needs evidence and more justification

Tori Spring (Solitaire): needs different justification or evidence to be entered

Thirteenth (House MD): exactly the type of show we didn’t want, additionally I don’t like the show because it is acephobic

Marceline (Adventure Time): vampirism does not count as a disability in our opinion, and I couldn’t really find/ didn’t really look for a justification for the bipolar side of the argument

Rose Darling (Camp Damascus): need more evidence and justification from someone who has actually read the book

Anduin Wrynn (World of Warcraft): as of right now I am not comfortable accepting content from those creators, however if someone has an argument that isn’t mean they might be accepted

Vaggie (Hazbin Hotel): Unless someone wants to give a really good argument as on this one we are not including her due to sketchiness of content.

Vace (I was a Teenage Exocolonist): wiki was less than clear on sexuality

Tangent (I was a teenage exocolonist): too much eugenics vibes going on on her wiki for me to be comfortable but feel free to persuade me

Ashes O’Reilly (The Mechanisms): too similar to real life

President Dean (The Monument Mythos): to close to real life for me to be comfortable

Tatsumi Kazehaya (Ensemble Stars): lack of evidence

Edward Eric (Fullmetal Alchemist): lack of evidence

Dys (I was a Teenage Exocolonist): lack of evidence on wiki

Kitty Softpaws (Puss in Boots): lack of evidence

Monkey D Luffy (One Piece): lack of evidence
