still dont see how so many people say that dawntrail is poorly written in comparison to other expansions like. what, did you realize you had to learn about a new culture and immediately not care anymore lmao? you've done it before, was this one not white enough for you?
genuinely i think more people should do side quests during msq so idk you can form a heart about the characters you're interacting with if you struggle with that and understand the land better so when impactful shit happens your illiterate ass can actually read and have empathy. theres no excuse for this.
if you can't handle storybuilding and character introductions from the expansion that feels like stormblood and shadowbringers had passionate gay sex that got one of them pregnant and birthed a beautiful daughter they both love and care about then idk what to tell you, maybe youre just lame and can't read. best of luck with that.
#'they dont take as many risks as shadowbringers and endwalker!!' okay one WHAT risk did ENDWALKER take lmao#and two DID YOU PLAY PAST ZORMOR LMAO?????????? HELLO?????????? DID YOU LEAVE TULIYOLLAL??? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT#like i genuinely think you guys just complain about shit without actually playing the game#god forbid you have to learn about another world#some people heard this was stormblood 2 and immediately gave up caring#oh im sorry you were able to care about literal racist elves in cold france but a refugee? a non white civilization? oh i see#shadowbringers literally set up its societies too they were already in war dawntrail wasnt already#i think people should replay stormblood. it was never a bad expansion and i dont know what people are talking about???#half of the complaints i see for stormblood are racist and the other half werent reading any of the dialogue#'the horrors of war expansion has horrors of war in it i just wanna play on the playground with gay elves'#bitches will literally say they dont understand stormblood or dawntrail and then say yotsuyu was justified zenos is hot and wuk lamat is bad#why play a fantasy game if youre not interested in exploring new worlds#dawntrail takes so many more risks than shadowbringers and endwalker combined and sticks the landing with just about all of them#i think my only problem was how many times theg brought up they arent related by blood. no i can tell lol#some of yall are just haters that cant form their own opinion and are just mindlessly nodding along to somebody#you follow on twitter that was gonna hate DT regardless because zenos didnt come back to life this time#consume new media. go do side quests. touch grass. walk a trail at dawn and perhaps you have appreciation for story building#you guys are pathetic and i wish you the worst <3#dawntrail's twists are on par with shb and stb thats why i call it the love child of stormblood and shadowbringers#ffxiv

Might be a hot take as a bkdk and tgck truther here, but I find izuocha endlessly fascinating, beautiful, but also tearfully tragic.
Tumblr media
I see their love for each other as something representative of their innocence and naivety when they only knew so little about who they were, and what was to come.
I think the main barrier of their relationship is that its rooted in how they see each other very idealistically, specifically that they're attached to the image of their Best Heroic Selves, and not the deeply selfish, destructive, freaky, and egotistical parts of them. To each other, they need to keep fulfilling that image or else that same person they looked up to would almost die in front of them, and that would be too cruel. Although that hero is still there, that same person they looked up to is not the same now because of...well...everything.
Izuku had barely even talked to girls when he first met her. She was Izuku's first ever real friend (Sorry Kats, everyone and him knows he was terrible), so he saved her in that entrance exam even if it was so dangerous. She gave a new meaning to his derogatory nickname just by being a friend that believed in him. After that, she saved him several more times (Blackwhip and Megaphone are the biggest samples iirc). It makes perfect sense that she is Deku's hero.
Ochako hardly knew what it meant to be a hero when she first got into UA. Just by reaching out to some kid tripping, she made a new friend who would then save her in that exam, then save him again in return. This boy then became someone who was always working so hard to save everyone in trouble, and she realized she wanted to be just like him too. "I want to save people"
But...Deku changes. The weight of One for All is on his shoulders and he needs someone to carry this burden with him. He continues to want to save other people at the expense of himself, still not letting his true selfishness and ego ever show- and it only grows more and more unbearable.
Then...Ochako fell in love with Himiko. Truly, relentlessly, selfishly and devotedly in love with a girl who then dies giving her blood to her- the greatest expression of love Himiko could ever give.
Not that they can't love each other because of this happening (and...so many other things oh god), I'm honestly not sure how to explain it- But them ending up together after losing that innocence and naivety? After Ochako will forever grieve the girl who showed her love in its most beautiful and ugly form? After Izuku changed so fundamentally as a person that the butterflies of a nice girl talking to you doesn't exist anymore? After that simple image of being a hero and being in love has completely changed for them both?
Even so, I believe they still love each other. There is no label I know of that can properly describe them though. They are each other's image of being a hero when it comes to saving people. Aside from Shoto, no one else can grasp the grief of the person you tried to save dying in your hands. They would no doubt try to cope with these losses together, and just try to get better together...but so much has changed. They've changed. The world changed. What are they now? Who are they now?
"What happened...to us?"
#I just think the tragedy of falling out of love for the person who represents who they Used to be is so...so painful#Kacchan isn't even here yet and it's already so complicated.#also. Izch healing together after all this would also be really nice#if u like them ending up together thats also perfectly fine too. im just a bkdk and tgck truther myself. thats kinda my whole thing#but izch forming a deep bond from their experiences and saving eachother#and maybe later on trying to date too...oh boy#and them being able to just...be more casual again. talk abt their lives and dreams together too just so they know they have each other#oh itd be so healing and beautiful#im so glad izuku talked to ochako on that cliff man oh man...#izuocha the underrated tragic love that they could've been if ppl werent so close minded abt them#only the real izch fans understand just how much these two actually mean to each other. god bless yall I swear even if I dont ship ship it#thank u to that person who wrote abt them being characters than run in parallel#that narrative structure for them is permanently in my brain. I love these two so much its no joke#my Extra hot take is that izch wouldve been treated better by the fandom if it was gay.#but we'd still agree on bkdk as the endgame after all that happened. maybe. idk this is a hypothetical.#if you switch ock and kats genders...this wouldve been a very different story and fandom. insane food for thought with this one.#ok thats my yap for the night oh god i have so many feelings about them...#evelynpr bnha#bnha#mha#my hero academia#izuocha#actually confidently putting this tag now. sorry for the angst you guys...and maybe being seen as a traitor#im a strong girl I could take on potential haters hahaha...#izuku midoriya#ochako uraraka

always feel fucking insane when people are like "awww i lobe tjese kind of slow burns!" on a relationship that honestly is developing really fast. why is it a slow burn? because they arent together yet? we are nkt even 20 fucking chapters in. they did not even meet on chapter 1. what the fuck are you talking about. this is not a slow burn. a slow burn is when one of them doesnt even realize they like they otjer until chapter 60 but they still dont get together for another 15 chapters. for thr pace that this story is going this isnt a fucking slow burn when Both of them are blushing bc they accidently almost held hands on chapter fucking 15. slow burn. god to hell

ok so akitsu is dead for real. goddamnit.
Tumblr media
at least the new characters are interesting. especially the doctor, I fucking love her. though it feels like they were like "ok guys quick, we lost our quirky high energy character in the 3rd ep, what do we do??" "just make another one."

I'm very interested in your thoughts on Wemmtech. And how would you characterize their dynamics 👀
Tumblr media
to sum it up: gay as fuck to have a rival lol
i wasnt there before wemmbu deleted his channel so i only really know their rivalry to the extent of the vids but it will never not be funny to me how much wemmbu antagonizes minute, its almost like they Have to be enemies or else he'll implode. they Can work together mind you, and is probably why minute keeps getting his hopes up in the first place, but it never really lasts long
even in s6 when theyve barely interacted cause of how much minute travels, the first thing wemmbu thought of when presented with the possibility that he's washed is fearing that he wont be able to fight minute like bro 😭 hes out getting milk 😭 i dont think you need to worry about that rn 😭
on the other hand, shoutout to that time minute warned the PlayersTM about how untrustworthy wemmbu is despite the fact everybody already knew that fact, bro has Not gotten over that trauma despite the fact that it was before lifesteal and wemmbu has yet to betray minute on ls itself lmao -- and yet despite that, minute kept helping wemmbu when they werent directly against one another like i dont think the PlayersTM were the ones who needed the warning lmao
overall i think its fascinating how like. two sides of the same coin they are. theyre very similar but they veer in completely opposite directions or at least in ways that opposes the other which i suppose explains how they keep managing to antagonize the other lmao

✦ LATE NIGHT WALK? — k.mj
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary. a late night walk with your best friend, minji! ..except, theres a twist.
pair. non-idol!bsf!minji x fem!reader
content ahead. fluff, (best) friends-to-lovers, wlw, GAYS!!!!, theyre both silly, just a small bit of texting!
notes. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA who couldve guessed! surprise !! take this while you wait for tg…cause ive been procrastinating it a LOT…. (not proofread as we all know.. i proofread on a good day [which is never])
Tumblr media
you lie awake in bed as the time read 12:37. you sighed, you didnt want to go to sleep, but you didnt have anything else to do, either.
until, that is, you felt your phone vibrate—a notification. you first shrugged it off, thinking it was some random app you didnt use anymore, but was way too lazy to delete it. after a few seconds, you decided to see what it was, and to your surprise, the notification was a text from your the one and only, kim minji! aka your best(est) friend (ever).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you could feel your tiredness just disappear all in the span of that minute.
you immediately got up from bed once you hearted the text, turning the lights on as you walked to your closet. you didnt want to keep minji waiting, so you figured you would just keep it casual with a shirt and jeans or something.
once you finally got ready, you did some finishing touches before grabbing your phone and bag, and dashing out of there excitedly. when you exited your apartment complex, there she was, in all her glory—minji!
“minji-ah!” you whisper-shouted as you swore she turned her head to you in the blink of an eye. she took her hands out of her pockets and waved at you, smiling brightly. you rushed over, embracing her in a hug as she froze, blushing a little.
“hi!—” she giggled before hugging you back tightly. you let go after a few seconds, making her pout. you didnt notice, though. you were too busy looking around the streets of seoul, wondering where you two should head first.
“mm, follow me!” you spoke, which caught the tall girl off guard, but she immediately followed after you, catching up as she walked beside you. the night sky always had you mesmerized.. but there something—someone else that had you even more mesmerized.
and it was minji.
maybe you started to develop feelings for her over these past few months with her…
you were pretty much certain that she didnt like you back. and as much as that hurt, you had to deal with it. being best friends with her is enough already, and youre grateful. but at the same time, what if she liked you back? it would.. yeah itd probably hurt to confess. but it was now or never, right? now just seemed like the perfect moment.
“crosswalk, idiot!” she reminded as she halted your movements, making you snap out of your thoughts. “oops!.. sorry,” you looked away in embarrassment as she scoffed jokingly.
you silently turned your head back to her. she was looking at the sky, and the scenery around. god, she was insanely pretty. prettier than the scenery around. prettier than anything around.
you tapped her shoulder to get her attention once you were able to cross as you two crossed the street together. your hands suddenly brushed against each other slightly, and even that made minji blush.. you were both equally down bad for each other!
once at the other side, minji’s fingers crawled on your palm before she interlocked her hand with yours, the action making you stunned, but, you werent complaining. who would?
“all the stores are closed.. aw,” minji sighed, pointing at the stores to your left as you two walked past them after a few seconds. “but you know, the convenience stores are still open.” you spoke, as she let out an agreeing “oohh..” followed by a nod. “lets head there then? hope you dont mind the walk though..” she smiled. “as long as im with you, i wouldnt mind at all!” you grinned.
after a short 12 minutes of walking and talking, you guys finally arrived at the convenience store while still holding hands. minji was the first to step in as you came in right after, greeting the staff that stood at the register.
“so, yn..i have, uh,, something to tell you.” minji explained as you two walked out of the convenience store. you and minji spent a decent amount of time in there, talking while having snacks. you two had a great time, and she even paid for everything.. and when you thought you couldnt crush on her more than before.
“oh,” you gulped, suddenly nervous and sweat was trickling down your forehead as you nodded, “i have.. something to tell to you.. as well?” you questioned—yourself. she took a deep breath before continuing, “lets say it at the same time?
“yeah. same time.. same time,” you breathed.
“on 1, okay?”
“3 - 2 - 1–”
“i like you, yn!”
“i like you!”
“wait, what?” you awkwardly giggled, raising an eyebrow at minji. she had her head turned, obviously away from you. her face was bright red…and so was yours.
“..y—youre for real?” minji muttered, not daring to make eye contact. she was looking everywhere but your direction. “what do you think, idiot?” you joked.
“so,, were dating now, right?”
“yeah.. yeah!”
“ill walk you home then?”
“thats absurd, kim minji! spend more time with your new girlfriend, will you?”
“g-girlfriend.. right! yes, okay.”

dylric angst fanfic
includes angst, past/repressed sexual trauma, eric being sweet, and last night on earth.
note: little bit of a projection, but im posting anyway.
Tumblr media
no lyrics, sorry:o(
the basement was quiet. the whole house was. it was late at night - around one am.
they had been passing back and forth a bottle of vodka, but it was now discarded.
one last night. they shouldve been asleep.
dylan couldnt sleep, so he called eric.
eric couldnt either, so he invited him over.
they werent ready. theyve planned for months, did drills, had everything set to go, but they werent ready.
“im not ready,” dylan verbalizes the thought, voice soft “im not ready, eric.” he repeated.
the brunette turned his head, looking to his friend.
“we have to do it,” he answered with “we have to do it, dylan.” he repeated as well.
they were in tune with each other. everything they said was on the same wavelength.
the blonde shakes his head, looking over at him.
“i cant.”
“we have to.”
they both stare at each other, communicating something that they could never verbalize.
theyd been through so much and they never got the chance to unpack any of it. this was their way of unpacking - kill everyone and then themselves.
dylan though had gone through something that eric hadnt been through. they were used to the bullying, having been through just about everything you could imagine, but dylan had been given the worse hand.
he cant remember it - doesnt *want* to remember it, but he can remember the way the hands felt - the names he was called and the empty feeling afterwards. he forgot everything else.
he was never able to figure out his emotions or how to deal with the trauma he was given, and now he never would.
eric knew though - he had told him. it was one of the many reasons they would be committing their final act together in less then a couple hours.
he didnt know everything though. even he couldnt know the extent of it.
“itll work out,” eric spoke again “everythings ready to go, vee.” he wasnt feeling good about this either, but he didnt want to show his weakness.
the blonde shakes his head again “im - im ready, but…”he struggled to find the words, staring at his friend and hoping he would get it.
eric does get it. he wasnt good with comfort or anything similar, but this was his best friend.
he gave a small, barely noticeable nod of his head.
before dylan realized, tears had already started to build up and streak down his face.
he sniffled, shuffling closer and putting his head on his shoulder.
eric lifted his arm and put it over him - the weight of it felt good.
neither know what to say or what to do. at the end of it all they were still two clueless, dumb teenage boys who didnt know how to comfort or handle emotional baggage, but when have they ever known how to deal with anything? their overall solution for life was death.
the brunettes hand rubbed over the others arm soothingly “its gonna be alright,” he makes his voice as soft and gentle as he can “itll - itll be over soon, vee.”
dylan can only sniffle and cry, putting all his weight onto the other and leaning on him for support.
the hands that would soon be used to carry out mass destruction and murder were so gentle and careful over his arm.
it was a wonderful feeling to be cared for - to have someone understand.
this was so out of character. this wasnt a persona or personality they put on like in front of their friends, their family, and the camera. this was just them.
the room is quiet except for the crying and soft hum of the air conditioner kicking on. it was peaceful - the last moments of peace theyd ever know.
“we’ll take care of them,” erics voice cuts through the silence, swallowing hard “*ill* take care of them.” he didnt want to sound gay when he said it, which was funny, but it was the least he could do.
dylan was his best friend. he would hunt down those fuckers if it was the last thing he did - which, it would be.
“theyll be gone. you wont have to deal with it anymore,” he wouldnt have to deal with it either way - they would be dead too, but he didnt want to say that “itll be over.”
dylan has no idea how to respond - he just keeps crying, soon turning into choked sobs. he didnt want it to be this way.
his friend is quick to hush him, moving his hand and running it through his hair now. he placed a kiss to the top of his head.
“itll be alright.” he restates from earlier, saying it quieter this time - just above a whisper.
he knew he had to accept it, but he just couldnt. it would never be alright.
he shook his head, but the other just keeps reassuring him.
“yeah, it will. we’re gonna take care of all those fuckers,” normally hed be saying that with such hate and anger, but his voice doesnt change “they wont know whats coming. theyll pay for all the crap they did,” he tucked his silky blonde hair behind his ear “we’ll take ‘em all down with us. we’ll make our point and no one can stop us,” he placed another kiss to his head “we’ll be a force grater then nature.”
to anyone else that would be disturbing - make them feel sick and want nothing to do with this anymore, but it made dylan feel better.
as long as he was with his best friend while getting rid of all their problems, he would be happy.
“you promise, reb?” he asked abruptly, his own voice small.
“yeah, i promise, vee.” he answered back without hesitation.
it was the last promise hed ever make. he had to make it count.

okok i saw someone talk about how they dont like zolu (which if u dont idc) but it came down to a mass mischaracterization of zoro, luffy, and sanji so i wanted to talk about it
note that the person i saw was a zosan shipper but im not at all saying zolu is better than zosan or that zosan sucks (also sorry if this comes off rude im autistic LOL)
"zolu doesnt work because luffy is aro ace!"
im aspec, but you guys need to realize asexuality and aromanticism is a spectrum. for example: someone whos demisexual would only have romantic/sexual feelings if they already have a close bond with that person. using luffys aromanticism as an excuse to why zolu doesnt work is. weird. aspec people already dont get a lot of rep, but boiling it down to one definition isnt what we are
"if you ship zolu its because of the one piece live action! they straight washed sanji!"
ok this one kind of pissed me off bc😭..... none of the strawhats are canonically queer. you can def hc someone as gay, bi, lesbian, etc. but until oda says something is canon it isnt. for example, i hc zoro as gay and sanji as bi! but neither of these are canon. sanji wasnt straight washed, his characterization is very similar to the animanga, same as the other characters. the only real difference is they toned down a lot of things they werent able to do bc its not animation
"it feels cishet female gaze-y!"
zolu, arguably, has one of the most complex dynamics in the show. zoro has completely dedicated himself to luffy and luffy has pushed him to accomplish his dream. zoro sacrificed himself in thriller bark, giving up his dream, and promise to kuina, and nearly died in the process. zoros unwavering loyalty in luffy and luffys unwavering trust in zoro is part of the main appeal. im not a cishet female, so its probably why most of this got me upset, but i myself hc them both as aspec, and that they arent very sexual people. i wouldnt necessarily call either "female gaze-y" since the male gaze is a product of the patriarchy and the female gaze is more in a "how does this man treat a woman" way but yeah.
if u disagree w me thats ok! u can block me or send me an ask explaining why u prefer zoro and sanjis dynamic! its just not for me! i just think throwing around baseless accusations like straight washing or fetishization is weird
ok bye sorry

just saw the wicked film so gonna talk about my favourite bits :)
some spoilers below
i cried when the munchkins had glinda torch the wicked witch thing. like noo thats her gf :(
when i heard cynthia singing for the first time- if i werent already gay i wouldve becomr so right there and then
i'd heard this fiyero was very flirty with both men and women. but nothing, NOTHING couldve prepared me for the utter cunt and bisexuality that man emitted. he even had me, an ace lesbian, whipped
holy fuck i gasped when kristen and idina appeared. and they started singing a part of elphie's and glinda's bit in one short day, i cried omfg
jeff goldblum is fucking iconic as the wizard
extra shoutout to:
cynthia being fucking gorgeous
cynthia having the most wonderful voice
fyero's cunt-serving
respectful treatment of wheelchair users :)
nothing could have prepared me for how utterly gay glinda and elphie were in this, and thats coming from someone who has seen the musical live as well as clips from other performances and has been a hardcore shipper since day 1, and id already heard a lot of how gay it was. it was still even gayer than i'd thought/expected

On rewatch, max seemed to be going through a certain kind of Nightmare during “gay week” that Must be attributed to a turbulent episode of internalized homophobia.
My textual evidence is: his confusion / discomfort over being referred to as “daddy”, his almost panicked reaction to avery talking about the threeway (he mentions “the pact” three different times while tristan is open to it… max seems very embarrassed and wary), of course the awkwardness with tristan. There’s also a general air of coldness from him the whole episode. He smiles a few times, but there is a Noticeable Pitch Drop in his voice. Like it’s wild to watch Any other episode then this. Jj flowers
He is going THRU some shit. And im not sure why? He liked the threeway (“wonderful”), he has 0 awkwardness with avery (smiles at her, no tension with her), he doesn’t particularly Fight for avery (doesnt ask her to choose). The tristan fight is the symptom of something big. I guess from their sexual encounter to the quiet to the awkwardness to the throuple suggestion to the tension to the professional fight to the increased tension eased by cap to the apology and relationship breakdown. then he smiles at them.
I feel like. You can see when the tension became intense. Right when avery brings It Up. Then max gets jealous? I feel like. That isnt the appropriate response OR response time. Also during the initial talk, he KEPT trying to shut it down. Thats actually the only thing he says. He doesnt sound jealous. He sounds ashamed. Like i said, embarrassed. Over what? Sharing a girl? Would he have felt this awkward if he slept with her then later she slept with tristan? No. You know how i know. Because he didnt really do anything when tristan and avery kissed and he saw. Afair. And you know what.???? It couldn’t even have been he was ashamed of doing weird sex because hed ALREADY done a threeway. And he called it BAD because they were more into each other. YOU KNOW WHAT HE CALLED THIS AVERY TRISTAN THREEWAY? WONDERFUL!!!
The distressing part was that it was good for everyone. Two people Werent more into each other than with a third. Uh oh! There’s no third he realizes!!! The angry embarrassed ashamed part has to be from the total enjoyment he had. Which necessitates sexual pleasure from whatever Tristan was doing, and seeing Avery & Tristan together. Ergo. #InternailzedHomophobia
Theres a billion more things to talk about. Like the vagueness of Tristan’s sexuality, all the IMPLICATIONS throughout the show in terms of max’s sexuality, the episode’s marked separation btwn Gay People and max & tristan. The theme of “too much” and what that means in a tv show ABOUT indulgence. Ummm!!!!

warning! sappy dnp yap session incoming
ok ok so i saw terrible influence last night in phydney and im quite literally a changed person.
I have never been in a space where I have felt more accepted and with people I could trust. The phandom has always been a special place for me but being there with our people in the god forsaken year of 2024 is actually crazy work. I felt so safe that I was able openly be me, tell complete strangers things I am not able to tell my family and know i would be accepted. (Also dancing to hot to go with everyone was in fact lesbian group therapy)
I met people my age that have been watching them just as long as me, I met fellow grown up emo kids who listen to the same music as me (and do not judge when I tell them fob, panic! and mcr made my spotify wrapped this year) and I met people who understand the impact that dan and phil have made on my life.
On that note, danisnotonfire and amazingphil <3 there aren't the right words to say how much you have helped me to become the person I am today. I truly love them so much because they have been there for me for every single moment of my young adulthood through the various life changing experiences I endured. From the time as a 14 year old when I first emailed the 'Internet Support Group' panicking that I wasn't straight, to 16 year old me having to balance who I was in the context of my world reshaping as I knew it. They always reminded me to remain true to my nerdy self and right through to now, they have given me the courage to exist in the face of a world that seems so against women and queer folk.
"we're the guys that made your daughters hair blue, we're the person that made them a boy, maybe theyre a them now but you gotta love them because if you don't we will and that is a threat" - when they said they were healing our inner children, they werent fucking joking because when I heard Dan say this on Australian national television the other day, it was quite literally as if they were directly speaking to the teen me. Telling her that it will be okay to dye her hair stupid colours and experiment with pronouns even if it didn't always feel right because if I did, they will always be there providing space for me to do so.
I am already in tears and I will not stop if I don't tell myself to quit yapping about what they mean to me. So thank you Dan, Phil, those who brought them to us over the last four(ish) tours and every single person in the phandom. The community we have made over the last 15-18 years will be forever ingrained to who I am.
Here's to being the girlys, gays, goths and geeks, a chronically online parasocial phan and a terrible influence <3
