Sol//Ky is one of those ships where I get the appeal of it and why it's an important fandom ship, but I still personally find it mid.
#c's thoughts#ignoring the problematic aspects of it#sol//ky is just so cliched#like 'jeez a yaoi ship where the two characters with opposite personalities hate each other/have a rivalry.#haven't seen that before!'#don't get me wrong#I'm not against these kinds of ships#but it's so dime a dozen in any fandom that I'm just instantly turned off from them#I'm not saying i don't see sol and ky's dynamic#i like their dynamic and understand it#but at the same time#it doesn't make me go i ship it#it makes me go 'cool! but it don't really feel the vibe'#it's like the same way i am witgh sto//ny#yes i understand the appeal of tony and steve's dynamic and why a lot of the marvel fandom ship them together#but i still don't feel the vibe and I'm just chilling in my science bros corner#guilty gear#(though honestly i would take sol//ky than st//ony any other day)

How it feels to not like timebomb after s2
#I'M NOT A HATER I SWEAR I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE IT ON PAPER#i do however think that it came literally out of nowhere and was hella rushed and kinda ridiculous#like. if the argument is that original ekko fell in love with jinx it doesn't make sense because they were enemies for most of their lives#if the argument is that current ekko fell in love with au powder and now projects these feelings on jinx it's kinda uh. messed up#because she's a whole different person. entirely. it doesn't matter if both these version started out as a 9-year old powder. they had#extremely different lives and experiences and thinking that “there's still this kind of powder in jinx deep down” is straight-up awful#OR even if he didn't project his feelings for powder on jinx why would he love her in the current universe? last time they met she blew them#up and now she wants to commit suicide. there's literally no reason for him to have any kind of feelings except the slight friendly#affection that's left from all those years ago. and yet the show and most importantly the fandom treats them like a couple??? i don't get it#also it's kinda insane that s2 turned jinx and ekko into flat shipping material#again. obviously i have nothing against the shippers and do not condemn it in any way. i'm just expressing my thoughts on the matter#also what pisses me off the most. is how in ep9 jinx in fully painted with ekko's symbols here and there. has the bandage (?) on her chest#like vi. has a hood that looks like a drawing that isha made. and yet there's no fishbones or any reference to silco at all#i mean. i get it s2 hates him but i can't help it#they gave her all these relationships and pretended that they're significant to her and yet they didn't have any proper development#to really earn it#arcane critical#arcane season 2#anti timebomb#jinx arcane#ekko arcane

Bungou Stray Dogs: Dead Apple and how “ability users” (opposite to “normal people”) learning to accept themselves through the acceptance of their own abilities is a queer metaphor of acceptance of own's sexual orientation and gender: an essay by me
#bsd#bungou stray dogs#About: Dead Apple. Watched this a while ago with a friend and it was a lot of fun!!!#If you're reading this: thank you so much for hanging out with me I had such a good time (ㅅ´ ˘ )♡#Next to general considerations: wow they were right that Bungou Stray Dogs movie sure can Bungou Stray Dogs#It's always nice to see the detailed animation and elaborate backgrounds of movies. The animation quality compared to the manga is–#definitely noticeable and it's nice to see. That said... I still like the season 2 art style more? And I'm speaking strictly of art style.#The s2 one looks more soft and smooth while the da one is so much more rough.#The plot is... Very bsd-esque I don't think there's anything to add.#In my opinion Kyouka's arc is the one that turned out best tbh. I really like her narrative development and personal growth in this movie.#I like the complexity of her state of mind. how full of contradiction she is. I especially appreciate the recurring small changes of–#expression that indicate how she thinks differently from Atsushi even if she doesn't voice them. The fight between her cynicism and her–#kind nature. It's all very interesting.#Atsushi's development is interesting too. Although all the open questions about his ability we still have kind of leave me frustrated#I don't feel very strongly about Akutagawa in this movie? I mean‚ he's there. The ss/kk scenes are always great and in character and a joy–#to witness no matter what they do. He just doesn't shine particularly? Or at least personally I dont find the “proving my strength against–#myself” narrative arc to be particularly interesting. Imo it was a lot better flashed out in the da stage play! With the complexity that–#the dialogues with Chuuya added to the character. Dazai attacking him. And especially Aktgw understanding that Rashomon wasn't testing Aktg#but rather only expressing that unstoppable rage that is also Aktgw's own. About that I checked out the play and I really liked it!!#I only watched highlights (aka: ss/kk and chuu/aku scenes) but there's some stuff I really like. I like the conflict between Aktgw and–#Chuuya and how Chuuya messes up with Aktgw at first maliciously and then amiably. It's interesting how Atsushi himself observes that Kyouka#and Akutagawa get along. And especially the sskk almost-handholding and Atsushi saying Akutagawa has a nice profile were cute akjdhbsawhjb#Next. Da really is shipping paradise (╥﹏╥) Sorry but... It is. oda/zai. daz/atsu. ss/kk. s/kk. fuku/mori. chuu/aku. It really has everythin#and the moments are so good!!!! What else. Wish we'd see more of Tsujimura. And Christie. And women in general tbh.#Also‚‚‚‚‚ Atsushi's tiger form in this movie is ATROCIOUS. I've said it before but it's crazy how a franchises that relies so heavily on–#fanservice came up with something this hideous. Man the movie overall was pretty but Atsushi sure wasn't. Firmly stand by the belief–#that only Akutagawa would find that form attractive.#Oh last note. honestly if we're ready to accept a movie where an antidote has effect AFTER the person has effectively died then we really–#can't complain about any kind of insanity the manga brings up#random rambles

looks are deceiving.
back in the day i would have given anything for these two to fight. they’re already kind of dead, so it’s fiiine they're fiiiine.
#danny phantom#danny phantom fanart#dp#dp fanart#vlad plasmius#vlad masters#dan phantom#dark danny#please don’t tag as ship#pls guys. pls.#for the sake of my sanity.#ney’s art#i have two interpretations of this#one is that dan wipes the floor with vlad. like just *decimates* the guy. version 2.0 and all that#second one is that vlad has actually been holding back against danny and its way more even bc life experience and probably ghost power??#either way they fight. very flashy.#side note but does anyone else find it funny vlad gets SO much buffer as a ghost#like bro. it's not subtle and i'm kind of endeared#real of him tbh#a lot of what i'm doing with this cartoony style is trying to get into simpler shapes. key word trying lmao#i have to resist the render impulse

Cloud's girlfriends have unionized
#ff7#aerti#this is so funny they deliberately third-wheeling him#anyway I'm very relieved I do in fact love their dynamic and ship them#I was worried there for a second since Cloti in the remake has all my shipping krypronite factors#so I started getting into them a lot more than I expected and I'm not that much of a multishipper#but this is gonna be an exception I can tell they're all so good#besides the dynamic between the 3 of them is also very interesting#pretend there's a thinkpiece in here about Cloud's protectiveness that Tifa initially humors and Aerith pushes back against right away#and now that they're all interacting as a group Tifa is also pushing back more in her own way#kind of through that bond she's developing with Aerith#idk I'm tired I need to go to sleep lmao

Re-watched the loumand fight and man I CAN'T WAIT to snort on Lesmand's word offs filled with sexual tension cocaine
#interview with the vampire#they'll be verbally hitting each other where it hurts but also sweating forehead veins popping shaking throwing up breaking personal space#if they stick to the books they'll self-combust 80% of their scenes together for sure#I expect intensity tension and heat in every sense of the words even the color palette will have warm tones to empathize it I love jt#and hopefully I'll get that earnest hug before Lestat leaves Paris >>>>>#I wish they would do the “it was a lie that I told him and I wanted to call him and say that I did [gunshot] him I did”#But if something like that is happening it won't make sense for it to be this soon buuuuuut#I'll happily take the “they want to throw each other against the wall /derogatory but also /sexual vibe” any day and make the most of it#armand#wish I had a ship that I could compare with gifs to show the vibe I'm expecting but tbh lesmand will be the first of its kind#there really isn't anything out there with their level of confusingly ambiguous and explosive insanity#they have the potential to be a cultural reset if done right really#Armand#lestat de lioncourt#lesmand#armandstat#the vampire chronicles#anne rice

thinking about scars...
#do the scars look 'realistic'? beats me!#atla#atla art#atla fanart#avatar the last airbender#zuko#song atla#was thinking about all the characters in atla w/ visible scars. and there's also aang (his back) and bato (his chest + arm)#but i got lazy and couldn't figure out how bodies work lol so it's just song and zuko for now#first time i've ever drawn zuko. still dunno how i feel about it#but the scar bit was the hardest bc i wanted to do my own interpretation of it and i always figured that baby was Melted#also i copped outta this one idea i had but- while drawing zuko's scar i used reference images (obvs)#and it made me think 'hm. y'know that scar looks roughly the shape of someone's hand. the curve of the palm over the eye mainly'#but i wasn't gonna redo my lineart about it bc i hate doing lineart so i just. sat on the thought of a burning palm pressed against his fac#anyway#i've also never drawn bare feet before. an experience i tell you h'what!#but idk what song's hand is doing. it's just sorta...There? but i'm counting it as a win that i even bothered doing that so!#my art#this isn't ship art btw. song was kind and empathetic and This asshole was like 'i'm gonna steal her ostrich horse'. boo! 2 thumbs down!!

CW Leaked hazbin hotel content talk under the cut
K look I'm a big fan of Guitargates and I know Abel will probably end up with Emily or whatever but now I want to ship Abel x Peter too so bad lmao
Also like the concept of Emily x Abel though I'd prefer the other like I mentioned. And Emilute. I like Emilute too much to let it go.
And I mean it'd be nice to have an actually healthy mlm relationship that's not stereotypical or has veery questionable background. Even though I like the other ships too I want to have one where they're just dating properly and healthy like is it so bad
#I'm not going to even mention Adamsapple lmao I will keep shipping it even though all of Viv's awful writing is against me.#Yk I'm kind of starting to hate Vivienne#leak talk#hazbin hotel leaks#hazbin leaks

I rewatched the season two final recently and Mariner literally like,,, slides up to Ransom while telling the bridge crew about Freeman's transfer and steals his drink and sips from it and he just takes it back like it doesn't even bother him, he doesn't seem grossed out by it at all. Is this just normal for these two? Are they really truly 'share drinks without asking' levels of comfortable with each other? It's making me insane
#lower decks#beckett mariner#jack ransom#marisom#someone had to CHOOSE to animate that you know?#I mean I'm sure whoever included that in the show#meant it as a like 'oh look at Mariner being a pain in the ass and taking his drink' sort of thing#but I'm sorry if my Platonic Coworker I Didn't Like Very Much came over and took my drink during a work function#and drank from it in front of me#I would be Having Words About That#and I certainly wouldn't be taking the fucking drink back afterwards#like what are they doing?#this is not platonic coworkers behavior#also the way she sits right up against his side#and he doesn't move away#but he does kind of aggressively remind her that he's her commander before taking the drink back#like it gives 'these two people are keeping a relationship on the DL and she forgot to put on the act for their coworkers for a minute'#idk I KNOW I have shipping brain worms#I know I'm reading into this too much#but I didn't catch this scene at all my first time watching it and it's making me crazy#like hello??? I can't be the only one seeing this right?

more ramon? MORE RAMON.
holy fucking SHIT, is he badass. my man went OFF THE SHITS. and y'know what? I KINDA LOVE IT.
#self ship#💜☀️ray of sunshine☀️💜#mine#laserhawk spoilers#guns cw#for a second I almost thought 'should I have a different tag for this version of his character?' but no#any rayman is still rayman#like this is absolutely NOT the kind of character I would EVER be into normally. but it's different. it's HIM. he's still in there.#he wouldn't be doing this if he wasn't. seeking justice for the people that have been shat on by society#and finally standing up against the system#basically what I'm trying to say is he's so fucking hot

#sylvie speaks#(in the tags because this isn't a complete enough though to make a proper post out of)#(and i will probably delete it anyway)#i am having Thoughts about creating and sharing and credit#and what it means to be a creator on the internet#(as much as that term has become loaded now)#i have mostly accepted that i do not get to control what people do with my words once i post them in a public forum#i will ask and i will request and i will trust in the goodness of strangers#but there will always be some people acting in ignorance or malice#and really when it comes to things like gifsets and fics and such i am so so happy for people to use them#even if it's for a fandom/media/ship that i might personally dislike or find uncomfy or some such thing#because it inspired and someone found meaning in my words and that is. all i can ever really ask#and they tend to be well credited anyway#and even if they aren't i think most people recognize that the quotes probably came from someone else#i'm not even as upset about poems floating around wholesale uncredited#(i'd have a personal vendetta the size of the pacific ocean against pinterest if i did)#but when it becomes credited to someone else#or when someone else claims credit for it#that... that does upset me in ways i find hard to articulate#and takes me by surprise in its stark contrast to how little i care about the other kinds of usage#i think it's about ownership perhaps#it is one thing to let something go#it is another thing entire for someone else to take it for themselves#it is mine; or it was; and i don't mind sharing i really don't#you don't even have to say thank you or tell me you're using it or even say it's mine#(though i much much much prefer that you do)#but it feels deeply violating for someone else to slap their name on it#i am perhaps slightly more bitter about this than usual#bc i recently discovered another piece of blatant plagiarism#that isn't worth pursuing but it does make me sad

one of these days my multishipping powers will increase enough that I'll be able to talk myself into shipping haruka/youko...not today but maybe someday...
#listen on one hand canonically thinks of her as a sister and is weirded out by the thought of being romantically involved with her#on the other hand in that metaphor kantarou is very clearly the Father and i certainly haven't let that stop me from shipping harukan#...or kanyouko in the very specific situation I'm in with this current wip#and kantarou even refers to himself as 'daddy' once in canon when talking to haruka so like. yeah that's just part of the ship lol#but generally i like haruka and youko's friendship to stay platonic...i think they should unionize against kantarou#i think they should both like. withhold sex from kan until they get better treatment.#and then they're both kind of sexually frustrated but are too grossed out by the thought of fucking each other to do anything about it#so they all suffer#do love me some suffering#kantarou gets revenge by fooling around with father edwards but it's not that good and the vibes are so fucking weird#it does succeed in pissing haruka off enough#...ok i need to stop before this polycule gets any Worse#tactics tag#the kancule#haruyo

proshits get so upset when anyone - it doesn't even have to be an actual anti - includes them in their dni. like proshits think they're being fucking oppressed bc someone doesn't want to interact with them. i'm not even talking about fights here; just one person saying they want to stay away from proshits is enough to cause rage in many.
it's also important to note that a lot of these proshits are grown ups complaining about minors not wanting to interact with them, lmao.
like... you guys know ppl have boundaries, right. you guys know everyone is allowed boundaries. that's why the block button is there for. why won't you just block the ppl who don't want to be around you, then? why won't you stick in with YOUR community??
since you claim that antis are often the ones who love starting fights for getting all pissed, you certainly love throwing hands with fucking teenagers on the internet, and it's pathetic. it's not even funny.
#lotus.txt#vagueposting#guess who got an ask questioning me for saying proshits dni in my art blog lmao#i don't even know if i should answer dkfjfkrk#i kind of want to#bc they're all like 'but proshits are the good guys! we support all ships and we stand against harassment!'#i mostly want to reply to it#bc it's related to a ship that i love#yet many of its shippers are proshits. sadly#they all support other horrible stuff too#so no they're not good guys lol#sorry i'm just angry#ranting#ranting in tags

i'm not a jally girlie* but the lyrics to tuhoasti by kuumaa do make it a jally song. to me (translation)
youtube
#disclaimer when i match songs to media i do it very much in a lyrics-focused way#the melody and genre are very second priority for me but i do acknowledge the genre is very unmatched to the outsiders#anyway i have nothing against jally#in fact they probably make the most narrative sense#but when i first read the book in gr8 i liked johnnyboy#and when i reread it this year no ship jumped out at me so i spend most of my thinking on the platonic and familial bonds#even though i'll always have a soft spot for johnnyboy because of my grade eight self#og#the outsiders#jally#kuumaa#<- kind of? enough to go into my kuumaa tag idk if it's enough to go into The kuumaa tag#analysis#<- again not really but if i'm ever having thoughts and looking for past reference i'd want to have this pop up#Youtube

truly do find 'perfect' sweet little kids who exist to be cute and protected extremely boring to the point of aggravation but alluka DOESN'T fit that description because she's been neglected and isolated her whole life, she is soul-bonded with a horrifying (to many) and nearly omniscient being, she is endlessly sweet and loving to really only one person, and she STANDS UP TO that person when he hurts someone else she cares about!! she may not have a lot going on but her character and personality contrasts her situation so much to make it really striking. and I'm a sucker for close brother/sister relationships!! so sue me!!!
#not to harp on this again but I would argue despite having similar roles as children supporting the protags and acting as#characters whose very existence means important plot or character things regardless of their personalities#alluka IS better-written than a-yuan. there is genuine conflict there. she has her own loyalties and motivations#on a plot level she may exist to 1. solve a problem 2. separate killua from gon and 3. introduce DC magic#but it doesn't feel like she exists to simply fill a shallow shipping-adjacent role quite so blatantly#or maybe I'm biased against using kids as shipping fodder.#or reducing an entire murdered family to one kid who's only referred to as the son of two unrelated characters. and whose survival#is only of value bc it helps gets them together idk!#I also really dislike how 'good' kids are treated by the narrative.#etc. etc. anyway authority figures and her own parents and siblings hate and fear and disrespect and misunderstand alluka.#and they are wrong! fuck them! it's always felt like togashi's had the backs of the kids he writes#it's um. anti-authoritarian not rly in its themes but in its general approach I think?#hm. can't rly elaborate rn as im sleepy#but alluka's sweetness isn't grating or irritating it's a breath of fresh air in the nightmare that is her home life#and it's a precious and wonderful thing to see her so affectionate with a character we the audience love so much but who has struggled#for so long to leave his past behind and do be a normal kid#her love and her kindness isn't empty or meaningless it's the lifeblood that killua needs to#have a healthy relationship w his best friend#bc it lets him step back and have more than one important person in his life#and he sends that love right back to her!!!! killua isn't just someone starved for love he's starved TO love!#the unconditional love the rest of his familiy has long denied him....he and alluka and nanika all find it with each other#and it's the most beautiful and special thing in the entire series I think. or one of them#cor.txt
