Eddie: Your son is out of control. Buck: M-my son? I can barely stop getting flustered when you call Chris 'our' son, why are you calling him just mine all of a sudden?! Eddie: Because he's dating five different girls and you need to talk him out of it. Now. Buck, blinking rapidly: ...Yeah, alright. I can see how that is my problem. Five though? Eddie: It better not be six.

The thing about mahiru tsuyuzaki is that for someone who consistently sees herself as behind her classmates in skill, in both the show and movie she has very commanding stage presence. Obviously the revue of competition is the more direct example of this, but the first chunk of the revue of jealousy is essentially her toying with Karen in a way that’s not too dissimilar to how Maya treats her in the revue of pride, just played a bit more for comedy. Considering many of the revues show the participants being on close footing skill wise and focusing more on the individual’s willpower (again, barring Maya and Nana in the anime) both of the revues mahiru is in she’s the star even if she doesn’t always see it.

i would love for season two to follow charles arc a little bit more. this is something i’ve been thinking about for a while because season one, while it does focus on charles as well, is mainly i feel about edwin’s arc. we have him realizing he’s gay, realizing his feelings for charles, being sent back to hell, standing up to the cat king, etc etc. and while we do have a lot of good charles moments (devlin house, lighthouse leapers), his moments felt more like they were setting up the arc/the first part of the arc rather than the whole thing. idk if i’m making any sense but i think it would be nice to see

The faultlines revealed in the BuckTommy breakup are not just shown in Buck moving faster than Tommy's pace/asking Tommy to move in with him rather than having a discussion about moving in together, but also in Tommy's reaction. The "you'll break my heart" speech shows affection, but it also shows a lack of trust and respect. Tommy doesn't take Buck's stated feelings and wants seriously because Tommy assumes his greater experience with men outweighs any ability of Buck to make his own judgement and/or Tommy is too busy projecting his intimacy issues onto the relationship to actually listen to Buck rather than his own biases. And maybe Buck rushing ahead in this moment gives him reason to question Buck's judgement, but rather than stating his own thoughts and having a discussion about it, Tommy dismisses the relationship entirely with the framing that Buck is intrinsically incapable of being a good partner to him and will inevitably hurt Tommy (and this is a problem specifically with dating Buck rather than a normal risk of emotionally deep relationships). And the whole setup is a mirror to their first conflict: Tommy walks out on the first date because he unilaterally decides Buck isn't ready (distinctly framing it as being intrinsic to Buck and Tommy who knows better doing him a favour, rather than Tommy acting on his own relationship preference or him choosing not to be with somebody at that stage of their journey or saying [not unreasonably] he was uncomfortable with Buck's actions after Eddie arrived). Buck gets carried away and says things without thinking through the consequences, but Tommy reacts to situations that would require him to resolve an emotional conflict by deflecting the entire thing onto the other party.

Neither side of the conflict is insurmountable but it is a conflict which has to be untangled from both sides because Buck needs to resist being a steamroller of impulsive overcompensating, but they also can't build a functional relationship if Buck is permanently on thin ice trying to avoid the next misstep which will make Tommy react with 'this is uncomfortable so there must be something wrong with you and this relationship could never work'.

Man I remember watching that fight between Robby and Johnny at the end of season 3 and thinking what a great parallel it was to the school fight. Like, Robby starting the fight. Johnny finishing it, hurting Robby even if accidentally. Thinking that would translate to the next season, force Johnny to reckon with what happened between Miguel and Robby at the school. Force Robby to reckon with it too. How you can seriously hurt someone and not mean to. How it doesn’t absolve you of responsibility but it does not make you irredeemably evil, either. Thinking that Johnny would ultimately work up the courage to apologize to Robby. That Robby would brush it off, saying he started it anyway. That Johnny would insist it didn’t matter, hurting Robby was still wrong, he should have had more control, and he’s sorry. And Robby would be forced to realize that he, too, needed to take accountability for what he did to Miguel and apologize. That he can do this while still forgiving himself for what happened. And that this wouldn’t fix everything. Johnny and Robby’s relationship would still be complicated. Miguel and Robby’s relationship would still be complicated. Miguel wouldn’t have to forgive Robby, and Robby wouldn’t have to forgive Johnny. But it was a starting point, at least. Crazy to think how in the end this parallel went nowhere at all

purely fanon jason vent below so feel free to ignore

every other fic in the jason todd tag whether its romantic or platonic or whatever just has to include something about the no kill rule or him giving up killing like is it not enough ! have we not hashed out this argument enough already ! can I not read some jason content without having to be randomly bombarded by the morality police and how “oh jasons not killed anyone for x amount of months thats great! we knew u could do it jay”

and I wish I was just joking like I really do but I have scoured the tag almost from top to bottom and it always, without a doubt, has to come up at some point. its his fucking defining character trait apparently. mind u he’s not even the only dc character that kills but yall just won’t let it go! I do not need jason giving up his stance on killing to be written out for me to be able enjoy content about him

and whether its included so that his relationships with other characters can be viewed as ‘realistic’ is just so. what does it matter. its already fan-fiction who the hell cares about justifying the universe that you’re choosing to write him in

I've watched Inception and The Wild Robot for the first time today. I'm fine! No, truly, I'm fine!

What happened with the Driftmark throne succession? How is that matter not settled yet?

In all seriousness though, the succession crisis doesn't seem like it's getting resolved anytime soon.

Corlys is going into battle at the end of season two, and for all he knows, he could die. Which would leave the 6-7 year old Joffrey as the new Lord of Driftmark. While that's not necessarily an issue, Corlys made it one when he expressed his displeasure at having a child as his remaining heir. But I do believe that the writers are trying to avoid having Corlys act against Rhaenyra in any way, such as by pushing Joffrey aside from the Velaryon line of succession to name one of his own bastards (as happened in book canon). So Corlys simply does nothing.

If HOTD was still closely following the book, then Addam as the eldest of Corlys' bastards could've been legitimized as the new heir. Addam being named heir would've been an open and shut case because he actually does want it. Even in the show, Addam is the one who expressed interest in the Driftwood throne. But he's also younger than Alyn now so it's not possible unless Alyn dies first. The show made Alyn the elder sibling, and he doesn't want anything. This is probably part of the reason why their ages were switched in show canon. HOTD is going to milk that deadbeat father drama for all its worth by dragging out the succession issue.

Shigaraki/Tenko wanting to destroy the false sense of peace All Might and Heroes created

.⬇️.

Shigaraki/Tenko wanting to destroy everything that lead to the existence of that house, which he conceptualizes as the embodiment of rejection and injustice in the world. Be a Hero for the Villains.

.⬇️.

AFO basically literally created that house

.⬇️.

Shigaraki/Tenko helps defeat AFO

.⬇️.

Deku telling him 'you already destroyed it' is... apparently Shigaraki/Tenko having finally gotten rid of the true cause of (his) rejection and injustice? main antagonist's big problem that represents an overarching major issue of the story/in-universe society... solved? (main antagonist's big problem that represents an overarching major issue of the story/in-universe society not actually being the problem he thought it was but now also solved?)

.⬇️.

No longer a need for there to be a Hero for the Villains, Shigaraki/Tenko dies.

.⬇️.

Heroes not to be blamed in the first place. also fuck everyone else and all other 'actual' outcasts I guess.

something i think the people shitting on taash for that conversation with emmrich need to understand is how it felt from taash's perspective. taash takes every opportunity they can to state over and over in no uncertain terms that they do not like corpses. this was even mentioned in their podcast episode: it's something that really upsets them. emmrich knows this, they have a bunch of banter about it. yet he continues to insist that taash ought to "change their mind" and engage more with the undead. this is a boundary taash has clearly drawn and emmrich violates it, repeatedly and incessantly. he is not listening to them, which is a sore spot for taash to begin with.

think of a topic that makes you really uncomfortable. now imagine if someone you both work with and live with would not stop bringing it up with you, even after you've voiced how uncomfortable it makes you. THEY like talking about it, so your boundaries don't matter to them. imagine this goes on for months. like, really think about it. and then thank taash for only calling him a skull-fucker death mage instead of knocking him out, because that's what i would've done.
