#I want sport to be my life

[partybarty]

The scariest thing ever is trying out for a sport.

lyubimyy moy, matador.

honestly to me this whole livvy ~discourse~ boils down to the fact that there seems to be like this weird undertone of ncaa gymnastics that the fans are just kind of dumb. Did you know the beam is only 4 inches wide? I don’t know where the judges found those deductions! She’s really having fun and showing off her personality in this routine (identifies zero skills or deductions). These people are supposed to be professionals at what they do. Between athlete, commentator, and me, I shouldn’t feel like the smartest person in the room.

Like, why am I being treated like a child who can only differentiate between 10=Good Yay! and Not 10 = Sad Bad Mad! Why am I being lead to believe that the only thing that matters is hitting your handstands, not falling, and sticking the landing? I’m a grown ass adult, I promise I understand how numbers work, and I can hold more than two thoughts in my head at once. I know how sports work and that it’s not a personal affront to a gymnast to take deductions for things they did wrong, just like it’s not a personal affront to a football player or whatever to get a penalty called on them.

I don’t know enough to say if this is a gymnastics issue or a women in sports or something else entirely. But I do know that fans aren’t dumb, athletes aren’t dumb, dear broadcasters, stop treating us & them like we are!!

NO ONE IS WRITING ABOUT HAIRO KINESHI AND ITS ANNOYING ME… I WANT TO YAP ABOUT PYROKINETIC HAIRO TRUST ME VRO (i don’t even know if my hc for it makes sense) (yap under the cut thingy)

okok so it makes sense right??? he produces heat by doing absolutely nothing (not just by working out the wiki lies to you) in the episode about the cold weather he was literally just stood there and he was producing heat??? He is a portable heater

also when he goes into an igloo and it melts and the snow melts around him doesn’t Saiki say something along the lines of “welcome to the life of a psychic” ??????? (it’s likely i’m just overthinking that line LOL)

i’ll reblog with clips if i can find any but to summarise: Pyrokinetic Hairo Kineshi argue with the wall

lowkey the posts where people are like 'well i need kevin to date some totally unrelated exy person' are corny for multiple reasons but i think the main one is if kevin didn't care about exy with everything he has then it's not kevin day innit. who's this other character you're imagining in your head

when i say that this was my 9/11 i fully mean it. i would pull out my computer and write it myself if it weren’t so personal to dan. i will go into debt to make this happen. @danielhowell if there is anything i can personally to get dan is not okay out into the world i will do it i don’t care if i’m a freshman in college i would die for this.

just saw a post that was like "reminder you can like certain players/teams and not hate on others," ... do you understand how sports work? why are you talking down to ME, when you clearly don't understand The Main Appeal Of Sports: Unreasonable Pride and Hating People?

anyway. this is maybe my favorite thread i’ve found on twitter the past couple days about why empathy directly translates to being able to enjoy sports regardless of the outcome. we’d all be better off and less bitter if we were willing to embrace the randomness of sport (especially ice hockey) or admit that the people we’re watching are actual people, lol. thank you twitter user himbeaux_on_ice for the logic in a sea of ugliness lkjsdklfjsdkl

i love your bard! riz au so much. he is so tragic as a character for all the reasons of what living in constant danger fear does to your mind. can i ask about his relationship with the other bad kids and the major differences vs canon?

hey I'm glad ur enjoying what's goin on here! I don't have a Lot of it clear in my mind yet bc it is a full class swap of the entire party so some stuff will just. not play out until they do yknow? it is how it is. but I think from the beginning riz's motivation is decently different so he'll just get into it on an entirely different path - he did Not start out a very kind kid. he would be extremely conflict avoidant, he's got the Actor feat, he's stocked up on Disguise Self, he's ready to disappear mid-conversation, anyone who looks like troubles he's steering Clear of. he goes to aguefort not because he wants to be an adventurer but because sklonda was like "this works for you?" and he was like "yeah 's all good :]" (he is about to throw up bc that's where penny went missing)

I'd say he runs into fabian (rogue) first very briefly and they'd mutually be like oh. a guy. and immediately forget each other once they get out of the same like locked classroom they accidentally both hid in. and then during the corn cutie fight fabian would see the way riz react and Not Like It (haha whoa. like looking in a mirror amirite) and go actually I'd rather be a hero (derogatory) than whatever that is that guy's got going on. great surprise for him when they got out and registration's closed and the mirror is now one of his partners in the career-long group project :]

kristen (sorcerer) would be an Insane encounter at first for riz like this is someone who is extremely powerful, not very controlled, and so fucking starved for people to be nice at. riz is cordial to her on the way and she is like Fuck Yeah Friend! please go do paperwork with me I don't know shit from fuck I haven't had proper paperwork since I was like twelve and gay. do you like candies? she then throws ragh through a window for trying to bully gorgug and netting her and gorgug the detention (riz is of course immediately someone else while this is happening) (he shows up again right after like haha sorry that was scary! resolutely not looking at how kristen's face falls at the idea of someone being scared of her again)

riz and gorgug (cleric) get on like house on fire at first in the sense that they're at that point both fake bitches and they know this about each other and acknowledge this with each other implicitly and they're like I'm not poking at what's going on with you if you don't poke at what's going on with me. and then gorgug dies and sees that the god he's been feeding his anger to isn't real (yet) and has his realization that he's been indoctrinated into a cult through the support group he's been to and starts on deprogramming and in that process he starts poking at riz's deal just by proxy of dealing with his own. riz gets vicious about this a bit into it but after the arcade he kinda comes around again. it helps that at the end of sophomore year gorgug becomes the saint of the Inbetween and riz is very much in need of that stop on his way right then

fig (barbarian) on the other hand does Not like riz off the bat (her whole thing is leaning into rage to live her truth without fear) but then being as perceptive as she is soon she's like ohhhh you're just scared. like Really scared and it's ruining your life. and after that she's like I'll just protect you then :] (this is her solution to most things her friends go through) this does not help at first bc riz has picked up the pattern that is if you're protective of him bad things will happen to you. he will have a breakdown about this in sophomore year but it'll get better from there

adaine (artificer) on the Other other hand just straight up doesn't like riz until after the arcade lol. he's on the prep side, he's not socially awkward and he doesn't use that power for anything but being a coward, he lets biz talk at him in the AV club and that means biz never stops fucking talking, and every time adaine raises a complaint all he does is being like "sorry :[" and changing nothing. it's fucked up between them riz tries to appease her by doing nice things but he doesn't address the things she actually complains about so she doesn't take it. she's the person who outright calls him out for not having the backbone to stand up for himself or his party. despite this she never thinks of throwing him out of the party and he does pick up on this. they get better after the arcade and riz apologizing and by junior year adaine's the one handling the tech end of riz's freelance publication

all of this is subjected to change of course I'm mostly keeping things mobile that's where all the fun is hehe. the world is constantly in motion etc but this is kinda how I'm coming into my art atm we'll simply see!

[the-gayest-tree-you-ever-did-see]
