Inuyasha and Shadow are literally the same person-

Both were close to someone who was murdered.

Both were captured and placed into a deep sleep that lasted 50 years.

Both are haunted by their pasts involving a woman/girl who was very important to them.

Both have a hard time adjusting to the current time period because the death of said loved one is still fresh for them.

Both have people who care about them and who want to help them heal from the scars they carry.

Both are kind hearted despite being gruff and cold on the outside.

Guys it's literally the same guy-

idk man i've reblogged and said things about how certain people on this site and the bird one are putin defenders, syrian/ukranian genocide deniers, outright white supremacists, avowed antisemites, etc. pointed out the ways in which the current moment is being happily hijacked by white supremacists with very strong and obvious agendas. and some of you guys have reblogged and liked those posts, and then immediately gone on to continue reblogging violently antisemitic things from the very same people. so i don't think it's sinking in tbh

(and like, the posts in question are never anything useful or links to articles or anything remotely "worth" platforming genocide deniers, just the usual "DON'T SCROLL PAST THIS, POSTING IS ACTIVISM" shit)

Unfortunately hot hockey take: I'm not about to get mad at my goalie for a bad night when he's been the fucking pillar of this team the whole season.

I listen to the commentary; I stay late for the post game breakdowns. You know what I don't hear from people smarter in this sport than you or me? Shit talk about my goalies. I'm sorry they're not perfect, but they're the reason we're still somehow third in our division with our disaster of a defense/special teams. Sure, it hurts seeing my guy let that many in, but I know how he normally plays in our 5v5s (hint: today was a fluke) and if he's still been as good as he has with the teammates he's been given then take your fuck up Sway. You won't hear me stop cheering.

One of the things I rarely talked about post breakup was the fact when I was living with my ex, there was a family dog that the dad got because he went through a divorce and figured a dog would motivate him to do better.

Instead, I ended up being the only one in the house who made sure the thing got bathed and trimmed its shit encrusted butt hair due to being a long haired breed. And even then, it was incredibly under stimulated and had really poor codependent behaviour issues no one did anything about. Because it was a "cute doggo", that meant any issues I brought up were dismissed.

And honestly it's been really hard to process that aspect of the relationship failing because no one wants to hear how much of a burden a pet can become, especially one as liked as a dog.

But finally living in a house without a dog in it, I finally feel a part of me is starting to feel better again. The stress and mental energy that goes into hearing a dog bark its fucking head off for hours, or watching it get frustrated and restless as it tears up the house or seeing something you repaired get destroyed by an innocent animal or having no spaces that isn't shared by it weighs a lot, especially when discussing it gets you treated like some dog hating monster.

But waking up in a quiet house, and being able to look into a nice garden, and not worrying about a living animal has been something I've sorely missed.

I wanted to draw a moment from the most recent chapter of my Fisk/Matt fic. (✿◕‿◕)

maybe i don't care about doing a complicated think-piece on nickel's actions and how he mistreated suitcase and how he's an awful person and if you like him you hate women actually. maybe i just think it's funny when the coin is a dick. i don't think this object show shit is really that serious

anyway since i binged the whole second season in a day and now i'm done with all the current content here's‏‏‎ ‎trexel-but-a-girl. i feel like a lot of adult swim shows are a little on the mean-spirited side for me and i'm not really into the gross-out humor of this one (i say as the biggest‏‏‎ ‎stellar‏‏‎ ‎firma‏‏‎ ‎fanfreak‏‏‎ ‎but That's Different Okay) but it was sincere just often enough to imprint itself on my brain a bit. her romance subplot in s2 gave me the ick quite a lot (and short of a character literally committing a heinous crime it takes a lot to give me the ick) because it was like cute for a split second and then got weird and gross and also i'm pissed about that turning into like the most important relationship in her life instead of her best friend who she's known for years and who the whole show is about her doing stuff with. and who she definitely has repressed lesbian feelings for but she deals with that as badly as she deals with literally every other thing in her life. i liked her maybe 3 or 4 moments of being a sweetie pie though those did uh. they did something for me.

i talk about the softer side of second chance au a lot so it’s time to talk about how absolutely feral the boys still are. just because they’re living in kinder circumstances now doesn’t mean they’ve been declawed.

metal, even with his hostility coding removed, is still a vicious little beast. normally he doesn’t want to fight if he doesn’t have to (maybe it's more accurate to say he lets it be someone else's problem until it has to be his), but it takes very little to provoke him. is he brooding, and you’ve just forced him to move two inches to the left? he's turning you into a bowling pin. did you just playfully hit him in the back of the head with a paint gun? you’re getting ragdolled over his shoulder. did you hurt who was precious to him? … hope you got life insurance, dude.

removing the hostility coding has not made him kind; it’s only distilled that hostility and allowed him to focus it on those who deserve it (or don’t. metal is not exactly a good judge of character).

he doesn't necessarily like causing pain, but some part of him delights in seeing the aftermath of his fights. after all is said and done, and he looks back to see he's carved trenches into the ground or set fires or knocked over trees, then all the better. maybe he doesn't go out of his way to cause destruction, but he certainly takes any excuse to, and when it's given to him for good reason, he leans into total overkill territory.

he is tired of being someone else's weapon, but he will still chose to be a weapon, especially if it means defending those he cares about.

even on the lighter side of things, one of the first things he learned is he does not know how (and does not like to) play with other children. games like tag or keep-away aren’t challenging, and he doesn’t understand the point of letting younger kids win to keep them from being discouraged. he cannot empathize with them, and if he can’t make use of even a fraction of his everyday abilities, then what’s the point? how is it fun, if he’s not allowed to hover to keep himself from being made “it”, or speeding away to avoid being tagged? how is it fun, if he has to handicap himself? (what even IS “fun”?)

for the most part, shadow’s content to live an easier life of exploration. he does not fight unless in self-defense, and isn’t that reactive or easy to provoke. but there are some days he misses the thrill of just, existing at a faster pace. he doesn’t have much reason to run or hone his abilities—even if he doesn’t have a reason to fight, it’s still an aspect of himself that needs nurturing and entertaining. he has a lot of energy built up, and doing nothing but wandering around and learning isn’t going to help him expend it. there’ll be days he takes off running at full speed from nothing and just Goes.

i’d like to think there’s a day where one or both of them are frustrated about the lack of excitement or feel they’ve stagnated, and just end up racing each other. metal can have races again that don’t end in a shower of sparks and broken parts, and with nothing to prove to “himself” (maybe this is “fun”?). shadow has a way to expend excess energy—he makes it a best two out of three. they run until sundown and don’t even notice until metal catches the fact that shadow’s winded.

maybe they even start to spar with each other, but that one might take some time. metal, as brutal and merciless as he is against anyone else, is fiercely in the “shadow is my responsibility” camp and would have a hard time allowing himself to do anything but block. i’d like to think shadow eventually proves he can handle it, and then it’s a no-holds-barred scrap that ends with a few broken quills and some chipped paint, but instead of sharp words and petty verbal jabs, it’s a calm trade of pointers to help cover each other’s weak spots while they're sat together in the grass afterward.
