2023 © reinahwanggg ... don't copy me and steal my work please ! socmed writers and writers in general work very hard to do stuff like this, and stealing their work is inhuman bro. all credit to whatever happens in this plot is reserved to ME!

[cloud-makers-make-pollution]

we're moots lol

okay this is gonna be a lot cuz he's like the main character or whatever

he was born uhh somewhere and he had a sister with a kid but their parents died so he and his sister had to take care of the kid. jean was a tree pruner but it wasn't enough so blud was like "screw it" and tried to steal some bread but was (of course caught and sentenced to 5 years for violent robbery but he was like "hell nah" and tried to escape like three times so he ended up with 19 years total and now the police (cough cough javert) hate him

so anywhizzle he does his 19 years and javerts like "ugh ig we have to let you go on parole or whatever" so jean valjean is like "yippee" and he's like wandering around tryna find a place to stay but ppl are like "nah ur a convict im not fuckin w dat" so now he doesn't have a place to stay but some dudes like "go ask the bishop he's really kind (WHICH THERE IS AN ENTIRE FUCKING SECTION ABOUT IN THE BEGINNING OF THE BOOK)" so jean 👖 goes to talk to the bishop and the bishops like "yeah come stay with us" but the two nuns in there are like "ew he's a convict he's gonna rob us" but the bishop dgaf so 👖 stays the night but he wakes up at midnight-ish and is like paralyzed with the decision of whether or not to rob the bishop cuz bro's got a lotta silver so...

spoiler alert

he robs him

so 👖 is like running around at 3 in the frickin morning and the police catch him and take him to the bishop like "sir this dude just robbed u" and the bishops like "yeah ik also here take the candlesticks and become a better person" so the police let him go and 👖 is like "omg he just like gave me all this free silver and he also said that i need to become a good guy" so 👖 breaks parole (omg lawbreaker 😨) and goes back to his hometown (which is also where fantine lives lol haha coinkydink hahaha) and he sells all the silver (except the candlesticks those are like a reminder of the scene with the bishop) and gets an alias which was like "pere madeleine" or smth idk and we don't see much of him cuz victor chooses to tell us about fantine

when we come back tho, "pere madeleine" has become "monsieur le maire" and he's the mayor of the town and owner of the factory where fantine works. as the mayor he's like a really good guy and he brings the town prosperity!! yippee!! and all the ppl love him but they're kinda sus of him like "who's this dude and why's he so nice" cuz they're a little paranoid ig but anywhizzle he's walking around or smth and he sees fantine being assaulted and stuff and javert taking her in and he's like "hell nah not on my watch" so he heroically bursts in and is like "she did nothing wrong let her go" and he and javert go thru their old man yaoi but fantine is eventually released. javert is NOT happy bout it tho

one day, javert comes into the mayor's office and he's like "bro i messed up i thought u were a former prisoner who broke parole lmaooo anyways we caught the guy and his name is jean valjean (DRAMATIC GASP) and we're holding his court soon anyways have a nice day lolol" but the mayor (COUGH COUGH JEAN VALJEAN) is having this identity crisis about whether or not to go fess up and free the guy but he ends up doing it and there's a buncha detailed chapters about his trek to the town where the court is being held but we don't care abt that

so he shows up and everyone's like "oh that's the mayor or smth ig" they drc and he sits in on this random guy's court session and there's a buncha evidence about how this guys is actually jean valjean but the ACTUAL jean valjean is like "NUH UH BITCH ITS ME" and everyone's like "GASP!??!!??!" and so javert is pissed and tries to get him arrested but 👖 escapes cuz he's gotta get fantines child to her and that's about where i am in the book lol

i hope you enjoyed my rambling about jean valjean and sorry for the long read lol

– ⚜️

this may be even more beautiful that the fantine one

“anywhizzle”

new word alert motherfuckers this is awesome

I feel like maybe you should rewrite the brick once you’ve finished it just your version and see how well it does because damn this shit it great

also

… @k-is-for-potassium ?

is this you??

Here are my thoughts on For The Future!

As soon i finished watching the episode, I reblogged a bit then went to bed, but here it is. And yes, there's plenty of spoilers:

No surprises that The Collector went and transformed the Boiling Isles into Weirdmageddon, a la kiddie cosmic style!

Of course, Raine would get flustered over Harpy Eda, who wouldn't?

Poor Hunter, he has every right to be on edge, he just lost his first ever friend and now he has to switch into vengeance mode!

Camila getting used to the Isles, at least she thinks it's not so bad!

Luz, we all make mistakes, no need to keep making yourself miserable so that the others are okay.

Fuck you Belos, you are so dead! And Caleb & the past Golden Guards will drag your moldy ass down with them!

Ofc, The Collector's trying to recreate Luz's adventures (and possibly her life too?)

Sorry Terra, but you had it coming!

New Hexside being used as a safe house & frickin' Man-Tholomule! Also, glad to know Edric & Emira are okay-ish!

Suck it Mamadalia!

Is the scribbled part of the storybook supposed to seal The Collector again or... ???

Why am I NOT surprised that Boscha's leading New Hexside, along with newbies Miki & Roka.

Whew, good to know King, Eda & Lilith are safe for now!

Poor Hooty, hope he & Lulu have a happy reunion in the finale. And Eda sneaking around the castle just to check in on Raine? MY HEART!!!

"I need a new body". Aw shit, here we go again!

Me glaring at Odalia: IT SHOULD'VE BEEN YOU! Seriously, even Belos wanted nothing to do w/her, that's how god awful she is, but WHY RAINE?!?!?! Like they haven't had enough to deal with already!

I KNEW GUS KNEW HUNTER WAS A GRIMWALKER THE WHOLE TIME!!!!!

Willow having a Pink Steven-type breakdown. Sweetie, you're 15, you don't always need to be the voice of reason. You can't fix everyone's problems, w/o acting like your own don't matter. Sometimes, whatever it is that you're feeling, you just gotta let it all out!

HOW TF DID I NOT KNOW IT WAS KIKIMORA & BOSCHA WHO'RE IN CAHOOTS???

Mama Camila knocking "Kiki-miki's" Belos-wannabe punkass out with the bat! She's the best!!!

Boscha, Amity was never happy being a bully, that was all her mom's bidding! Leave her the hell alone and live with it! However, le gasp, exes???

Of course Belos!Raine's gonna trick The Collector!

At least King's trying his best to figure out a way to reason with The Collector and not having to seal the kid again, or worse!

Camila & Luz's heart to heart, hits right in the feels!

The egg has hatched! STRING BEAN, YOU SWEET SNAKEY SNEK SHAPESHIFTER!!!

Hunter & "The Magic of Friendship?" Does this mean thanks to Flapjack, he can use magic like the others now or at least have some kind of Harpy form like Eda? I just want my child to have wings, okay???

HUNTLOW NATION, ALL WE DO IS WIN!!! Now kiss!

Even if Boscha's "just doing it for her teammates", at least she's doing some good... for now!

"I think I wanna play a new game." This kid is crazy jealous of Luz's friendship with King, huh?

So much for a Luz, King, & Eda reunion. Le sigh, I guess good things really do come to those who wait!

And that's that, for now. I'm really upset that the finale's coming up soon, I wished we had more time with these amazing characters but a certain evil corporation (and plenty of other shithole companies lately) has to go and ruin everything! Either way, can't wait to see how it all plays out next time!

Romione and... Pineapple?!

PINEAPPLE 

Hermione’s feet were aching a bit from all the walking they’d done the past few days. France had been lovely, both the Magical and Muggle side, and she was thrilled to finally have a look at Versailles. She’d read about it and seen films, but she especially enjoyed walking through the Acquisitions museum portion.

She’d shelled out quite a lot to rent a pair of headphones for an audio tour of the museum, but she quickly gave up on them. It was much more fun to listen to Ron’s take on the works, and then correct him afterwards with mock indignation.

“Charles Le Brun’s ‘Ricordi’ is NOT a painting of people smelling the artist’s fart!”

“Looks like it to me. That one in the red is right judgy about it, considering his haircut.”

“I think that’s a fur hat?”

“Blue turban guy is pointing out poor Charlie Le Brun to the bearded guy. What a snitch!”

“Noo, he’s not!” “That bloke on the left though hasn’t figured out what happened, yet. Smell hit him and his mouth was open and everything. Look at his eyes watering!”

“Stop it!” she gasped, trying to keep a peal of laughter from bouncing off the museum walls.

They passed more paintings and Ron’s interest began to dwindle as she kept stopping to read the entire description plates. He would walk ahead and report back what was worth seeing or not.

“That room’s just a bunch of vases and plates. Let’s skip it,” said Ron, interrupting her read.

“Oh no! There are some really lovely handmade objects in there!” she said, scampering across the wooden floors.

He gave a sigh and followed her in.

She had to admit, to herself at least, the china rooms weren’t as interesting as the paintings. Ron had a few loud comments about how racist some of the works were, which she agreed with, which gained them a huff from an older American couple they’d run into around the museum a few times.

“What’s with the pineapples?” asked Ron, pointing at a pair of vases.

“Oh, erm…” she found the description plate and rapidly read it. “Apparently pineapples were a sign of wealth because they were so hard to attain. People would even rent them for parties to show off.”

“They’d rent a pineapple?” Ron laughed. “Rich people are lunatics.”

“They even paid upwards of three thousand pounds to permanently buy just one pineapple.”

“What?” Ron asked, looking at the golden pineapple filigrees. “That’s, like, six hundred Galleons!”

“I can’t even imagine being that silly with money,” she said with a shake of her head. 

She went on to look about the room and read the descriptions for other interesting tidbits. A good ten minutes had passed when she realized Ron wasn’t at her side making fun of things, and instead was leaning against a wall looking strained.

“I’m sorry this is going long. We can move on to some paintings,” she offered.

“I just want to get out of here, if that’s alright.”

“Oh?” she asked, a bit thrown. He’d been lovely the entire trip, indulging her at every museum, every church, and every book shop. It was odd that he’d suddenly reached his limit now when they’d been laughing so much. “Erm, I believe I saw a good spot to Apparate to the West. There’s a little hidden alcove there.”

“Yeah, that’d be nice. Thanks.”

She was slightly disappointed, but they’d been touring Versailles for hours, so she had little room to complain. They found the alcove, placed the headphones on the floor, and Apparated with little fanfare to a small nearby village. 

Ron quickly found a cozy restaurant with the smell of fresh bread wafting around them. There were children playing in the cobbled street, a bearded old man smoking a pipe as he played chess with what looked like his grandson, and a couple of older women arguing in fast French at a small flower stand. It was picturesque and as big of a contrast from the Versailles museum as she could imagine.

They’d just begun eating some buttered bread when she finally asked what had happened at the palace.

“I expected I couldn’t get out of explaining myself,” he said as he swallowed a large chunk of bread. “It was just… We were in a palace, right? And it’s nothing but over the top frou-frou indulgent buffoonery that I could knock and make fun of because I didn’t have to think of the types of people that would have lived there, but when we got some real context on it all…”

He gave a shake of his head.

“I just couldn’t help but think about Purebloods like the Malfoys and how that’s the sort of thing they’d buy into, you know? There’d be Elves like Dobby trying to find a fucking pineapple for a party for them. And back then everyone’s getting treated like shit as these rich racist peons rent pineapples and decorate golden vases with them. It just made me feel gross thinking about it and being there. I wanted to be where there were real regular people.”

“You wanted to be somewhere like here?”

“Yeah,” he said with a small smile, looking around him before his brow creased with worry. “I hope I didn’t ruin things for you. We can go back if you like!”

“You never ruin things,” she said, putting her hand on his much larger freckled one. “And I like that you’d never rent a pineapple.”

“Certainly not. I’d rather rent erumpent horn like Luna had- much more interesting for a party than a ruddy pineapple.”

“And far more explosive. Actually, pineapples are a nickname for a kind of muggle explosive.”

“Muggles and their pineapples…” Ron said, giving her a smile as he took another bite of bread. “Good thing we aren’t pineapple people, eh?”

“Certainly not!” she agreed with a laugh as they enjoyed their bread and watched the real regular people around them

======================

Ok. So I’ve never been to France (some day I will go there!) and I’m not going to do the research to see what the layout of the Versailles Acquisitions museum is! (Or if it’s even a THING, ok? Or how ‘Ricordi’ is actually displayed. I KNOW NOTHING. I don’t know and it’s a frickin fanfic. So if you know the reality of it, just ignore it and enjoy the story :P

Corpse: Never Saw You

Corpse x Fem!Reader

An idea popped into my head so I decided to write it. I'm not gonna just make up a random face and put it on him cause I find it so very disrespectful to give him a random face that looks the way you want it to. If Corpse ever says anything being uncomfortable with having fanfics about him, this will be removed. ENJOY!  I DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT CORPSE SO IF I GET SOMETHING WRONG LET ME KNOW!!!!!

******

*BEEP BEEP BEEP*  At exactly 7AM the sound of my alarm rang through my room. I moved my hand my hand to find the noisy clock. Finally turning it off, I groaned as I sat up and slowly opened my eyes. Maybe staying up until 5 in the morning when I have to be at work by 8 was not a great idea. Oh well, too late now. I quickly got ready for day the ahead and sat down to eat my breakfast.

"Yo, did you leave some for me?" Wyatt, my roommate and best friend of 12 years asked jokingly. I must've fallen asleep cause I felt Wyatt hit me on the head with a spoon. "Y/N, you good?"

"Yeah, I was just up late." I replied, pulling my phone out. 7:37 it read.

"I'm gonna start taking your books and notebooks at night." Wyatt said, grabbing his food.

"Yeah, yeah whatever." I said. I put on a video and ate.

"You watching Corpse again?" he asked teasingly.

"No," I answered. "it's Sykkuno so hush." Wyatt laughed to himself, sat down and moved my phone over so he could watch too

*Le time shkip*

I checked the time on my phone 7:53.

"Shit! Wyatt I got go!" I jumped out of my seat, grabbed my keys and bolted out. I turned on my car and sped off to work. Once I got there I ran inside, put on my name tag, I did more things that you wouldn't care to hear. I made my way to the electronics section and walked around to see if anybody needed help. I came across a tall man with curly hair so dark it looked black. He was dressed in black from head to toe.

"Hello sir, do you need any help? I asked.

"No, I'm good thank you." he responded, his voice deep and raspy. It sounded so familiar. I accidentally let out a gasp of surprise when it hit me. Holy shit, he's here! What's he doing at Target, let alone the one I work at. He looked at me, confused.

"I uh, um, well you-if y-you need anything don't be a-afraid t-to ask." I stuttered. I felt the heat rushing to my cheeks.

"Are you okay?" he asked, a small laugh escaping his mouth. God, that's adorable

"Y-yeah, I'm just...your v-voice kinda surprised m-me." I replied. Please stop stuttering already!

"Oh, uh sorry 'bout that." he said.

"Don't worry about it," I said. "it's cool."

"On second thought, I'm trying to get a new camera for my sister. Do you have a preference on what I should get?" he asked, looking into my E/C eyes.

*le time shkip because I'm lazy*

"Thanks for the help." he said.

"No problem Corpse!" I said cheerfully, well I was cheerful until I realized what I said. "I mean um, oh God uh." He just stared at me, a hint of fear in his eyes.

"You know?" it was more of a statement then a question.

"I-I'm sorry, I d-didn't want to say anything to s-scare you away." I said, looking everywhere but at him. "I promise I won't tell anybody, I'll pretend I never saw you." we stood there awkwardly for a few minutes when he let out a small breath.

"Please don't tell anybody. I'm not just saying this for me. I don't want people attacking a pretty girl like you to get information about me." he said. He's trying to help the both of us, God he's nice wtf! Wait, did he call me pretty? Awww I nodded my head, finally looking at him and smiling. He returned it and I could feel my cheeks warming up. He laughed a bit, enjoying the affect he had on me. I was burning now. Why's he doing this to me?!?!?!

"I guess I have to go now." he said, his smile slightly falling.

"Oh, uh well, have a good day." I said, starting to turn away.

"Wait," he started. I looked back at him confused. "could I maybe get your number?" I felt my cheeks get warm again HOLY SHIT, CORPSE WANT'S MY NUMBER!!!!

"Uh, yeah. Sure." He pulled out his phone and handed it to me. I hesitantly put my number in and gave it back. I gave him another smile before going back to work. OMFG I JUST MET CORPSE HUSBAND!!! HE ASKED FOR MY FREAKING NUMBER! AHHHHHHHH!!! I finished the day with a spring in my step, definitely the best day ever.

******

"Bitch, I'm home!" I shouted, entering the apartment and closing the door.

"Hey!" Wyatt greeted, giving me a side hug. "How was it?"

"Great, very very great." I said cheerfully.

"Really, what happened?" he asked.

"I got a customer that was really frickin' nice and they just made my day." I answered.

"That's cool. Wanna play Mario Kart?"

"Grab me a White Claw and five minutes, let me go change." I told him. I sprinted up the stairs and into my room. I shrugged off my work clothes and threw on some sweats and a tank top then made my way downstairs again. Wyatt handed me a controller.

"I'm gonna kick your ass." he joked, selecting his character.

"You say that everytime yet I always win." I said, choosing mine.

******

I grabbed my phone and scrolled through Instagram for a bit. When I was about to put it down, it buzzed. Looking at the text I started to blush.

ON:E D2

Day 2 continued (even though there isn’t really a part one since TuMBlr DeLETed iT and I do not have the energy to try to recreate my thoughts, plus they wouldn’t be first impressions anymore since I’ve seen it already. Le sigh)

My Time is up first and I’m not prepared. My laptop even decided to quit the hell out of the website I was watching from, I assume in an attempt to protect me from 23 year old menace Jeon Jungkook. But the show must go on...

Ok I love the guitar move, I loved it the last two times and I love it now

No one come for me but his voice sounded a tad bit off when he first came in

I say this with love because my eyes and ears are peeled for injuries and strain and it is 2000007191819% believable that jk went too hard on day 1

But you know he’s right back on top again when the backing vocals come in and it sounds like a recording 😍 that’s my boy

I SEE TIDDIES I REPEAT THERE ARE TIDDIES ON THE SCENE

This choreo is impeccable

And I say that having seen it thrice and had my eyes peeled for the footwork and hand work because jk can Dance with that real good technique

You can almost touch the hours he’s put into this performance

Can you tell I’m avoiding the sexual nature as long as possible because I am

The leather fit was better for the thighs I’m just gonna say it

I like the red (and spoiler: the fact that he and jimin switch colors) but I reeeeeally liked the leather

My gawd those shoulder moves he’s so aggressive with it I’m 😳

The fact that his entire chest is out is absolutely sending me off the deep end, I am losing it, I have lost it

This sure is a...pectacle

Insert Jin windshield wiper laugh here

Jeon jungkook has pretty broad shoulders...and an itty bitty waist...and he’s throwing it in my face I’m like damn

Ok the backup dancers are lovely, and I like the symbolism of jk being followed by shadowy strangers, his every move inspected and copied

Imma say it: I liked day one hair better

I AM GASPING FOR BREATH JEON JUNGKOOK STOP IT RIGHT NOW I SAW ABS AND A WHOLE FRICKIN SHOULDER PUT THAT AWAY YOUNG MAN

I am keeping my eyes on the prize there is more to come I gotta stay cool but his THIGHS ARE A SIREN SONG AND I AM HELPLESS

That vocal run oof 😍😭 and right after that intense dance nonsense

Ok Santa I’ve had enough, all I want for Christmas is to squeeze jk’s thigh. Just one. Just for a moment. That’s all I ask.

I see sweat 👀 I’m not gonna say the thought I’m having I’ll scandalize you

FILTERRR JIMINNNN FUCK ME UPPPPP

Ok so he has his first note and immediately spreads his legs what am I supposed to do here jimin

His shirt is thin and almost missing as many buttons as mr doesn’t-know-what-buttons-are-jungkook so HOW does he do the outfit change later...we’ll find out

THE ROBE yes this is better this is the one heck yeah new fave

Jimin is Carmen right now (if you know you know) this is my ultimate goal

His hair...I said I was obsessed on day one but tousled is 😍 I love silvery jimin

And yes his eyeshadow is perfection absolute chef kiss Gordon Ramsay is on his knees praising this five star look

The lift and the half fall with the backup dancers is even MORE chef kiss ughhhh I’m so glad I’m watching this again to catch the details (and now I can pause lol)

Oop I caught a glimpse of those hand tattoos hello

Yeah jimin said “jk isn’t the only one with a chest”

HOW the outfit change was FOUR SECONDS OR LESS I COUNTED

I am literally yoongi looking at jhope doing hip thrusts right now. Hand over mouth, phone fallen to the floor, my entire life in shambles. Jimin has brought literal tears to my eyes how is he this potent even through a screen

Potent is the word, he is an actual SIREN like what

Jimin get over here I want you

And now I’m soothed with Jin 😌 thank you

THE PINK SHIRT nvm I’m not soothed I am a massive fan girl

His hair is also perfection, the whole vibe is It

Jin’s voice is sweeter than the WWH kisses he blows to the audience all the time 😭 omggg

I really do love that shirt, the sleeves are so fun and pretty and flowy

The little prince theme is killin me ahh

Things I want after this concert (since part 1 was deleted I’ll repeat myself...thanks tumblr I really love that you deleted valuable notes): jimins ripped sparkly pants, jungkook’s thighs, jimin, Jin’s shirt

HOLY HELL THAT HIGH NOTE

Jin are you sure you’re human I see no flaws, pretty suspect if you ask me

What?!? The song is over already? Excuse me?

Probably because I had to keep taking breaks from jk to breathe, and jimin to regain some control of my brain cells

The way tae does lil kid things as an adult

Not just on stage but I was reminded by that lil finger wave, this absolute cutie

The way he holds a mic is 👀 this man really does everything differently and somehow makes anything look damn good

What’s cuter, this kid or taehyung’s smile right before the chorus??? Impossible choice?

NOPE it’s the way tae makes those little faces at him and pats his head and you hear army in the background 🥺😭😭

His high notes at the end? Are they all trying to murder me with these vocals? Vocal line doesn’t REST

EGOOOOOO I think I need hobi in a red car for the rest of my life

How am I supposed to stay calm when you look That Good, hobi?

This choreo is so much fun ahhhhh I wanna dance but I’m definitely not good enough to learn this on the fly

The lil woah

Ripped jeans hobi 😍

Skipping hobi is an absolute joy, a bit of sunshine everyone needs to witness, the cure to what ails you, the light at the end of a long day, I sob

His joy is seeping through the screen he really is sunshine

He can really make any dance look easy, that’s such a skill

I mean these leg moves? I know they’re hard, or at least tricky, and he just? Does them? And makes my brain think they’re easy because he’s just doing them so naturally? What a lie he’s just gifted beyond this dimension. And also practices to perfection so there’s that

Tae is seriously shaking his booty right now lol

I know the boys always make fun of suga’s rap during boy with luv but I really love it

Jin’s so happy 😊 they’re all excited and having so much fun

I’ll never stop screaming over bts harmonies. Jk can actually turn anything into a masterpiece he blends so well with everyone, goosebumps every time I forget about a harmony and get surprised and ughhhh yesss

Jimin doing the ego dance lol this cutie

See I’m not crazy, they really are so happy on stage 😭 they’re all glowing and now they’re gonna talk about it I better not cry I’m too tired for that

Mmmmm Joonie wearing necklaces is 👌

All of their hair looks stellar oof

DNA choreo is one of my faves (who can watch them and say they’re not amazing performers, seriously)

Yasss Jin goooooo

Dance line really knows how to take and grab my attention like...I’m addicted to them

The hobi center part at the end though 🥳

I love the old songs, I’m always smiling when some of them come on idk

It makes me happy that bts still like performing their old stuff, like...we enjoy it but so do they

SUGA ON THE THRONE WHERE HE BELONGS #king of swag

You know it’s an old song when rapper jk reappears, and y’all know how much I love rapper jk *cough* ddaeng *cough*

The baseball is weird not gonna lie

Ooh little groovy jhope

Jimin seriously considered yanking his shirt up, I saw him think about it 😂 but shirt still tucked in

NEVER OVER THIS DANCE BREAK

Ok usually my jaw drops over jhope NOT NAMJOON excuse ME whAT

This should be ILLEGAL SIR, ILLEGAL

Ok yeah jhope has my jaw dropping again how does he move like that

😳😩�� red alert, that smirk is worth calling 911 to put out a fire because Hot Damn

I love jimin’s voice ok I love it

The closeups on heavy breathing sweaty bangtan are actual threats against my life

Not sure I have a pulse anymore

Can anyone in bts perform cpr I think I need it

Trollhunters, Holy Crap: An Essay

I was looking for something to kill time on Netflix and finally got around to watching it and holy crap. I'm going to try to ramble about it with no major spoilers (I'll stick to things revealed in the first 2-3 episodes) so that I can get y'all onboard because my friends this show needs more love. Seriously guys, this is the best fantasy serial I've seen since Avatar.

While it follows a lot of common monster o' the week and secret teen hero tropes, it pulls the rug out from under you at the best/worst possible moments. Real-life consequences intrude, schemes backfire, characters do the unexpected. You can never be totally certain things will go according to plan, and that's really exciting.

Why it’s Great

Swords and sorcery action! Get the obvious one out of the way, hehe. It's got flashy high-stakes, high-energy battles with swords and glowy lights and the protagonist and/or his friends being 2 seconds away from death against creatures wayy more skilled at killing than they are. 

You know how kid shows dance around talking about death and dying even when the protagonists are literal ninjas with swords or w/e? This... is not that show. 

...yeah that's episode 2.

Also it's really funny? Not every joke hits home, but there's some really hilarious moments--even better when they're woven into the mortal peril.

Toby is a gift. He might be a typical jokester best friend sidekick, but he's got some great lines and manages to walk the line between goofy and relatable.

Jim Lake, the protagonist, is such a good kid. He shows almost none of the toxic masculinity that is typical for this kind of protagonist. He's never self-conscious about fear of death, or shedding tears or apologizing. He lives alone with his mom, and he does all the cooking and at least some of the housework and is openly happy to take care of her. 

Also he learns Spanish above and beyond class requirements just because he knows his crush is bilingual and that's frickin' adorable okay?

Speaking of the Lake family, Jim's mom. Oh man, Jim's mom. I love her. I love the ongoing gag with her awful cooking skills, I love how she's horribly overworked but still manages to demonstrate how caring she is, I love her lack of a weirdness filter and how she calls out Jim when he lies about where he's been. She's the parent all of our teen superheroes should have had.

It's hard to really talk about the trolls without getting into spoiler territory, but I just love them. 

Their weird, magical, honor-driven society is a great juxtaposition against the more mundane high school life, and I love how simultaneously silly and creepy they can be. Arrrgh's character arc especially is super engaging, and wayy more nuanced than you'd expect of the tank character.

Then there are the villains. So many awesome baddies. This show is dripping with antagonists eager to kill/maim/use the protagonist, and that's part of what I love about it. The odds start out so absurdly stacked against them. 

We have the typical fantasy terrifying but distant Big Bad, the scary Brute Bad, and the scheming Lesser Bads (including the deliciously complex Strickler), all of whom vastly outrank the protagonist in power, then the Monster o' the Week, then the technical allies who may fight to the death over ideological differences... and that's ignoring the school antagonists, like the bully character and the teachers who (le gasp) don't like it when their students flake. It's just a giant swamp of hazards and I love that.

Everyone has an arc in some shape or form. Something I'm weak to in TV series is the minor/just-for-laughs character growing in the second season (can anyone say McGuckit?). Trollhunters does not disappoint in this respect. We get to see not only the secondary characters (sidekicks, minor villains, Jim's mom) given more depth, agency and personality, but even some of their classmates that were barely touched on in the first season. 

Also the overall character development is slow and has nuance. I love that, because so often it's simplified for children: once a Lesson is learned, it's learned. In this show there's always this back and forth, like Jim's relationship with Claire, Arrrgh's change in ideology, Strickler's priorities, and I think that culminated in what happened at the end of S1. It always feels real and true to the situation, but there's not a clean progression and that's perfect.

So yeah this barely scratches the surface but I’d better stop rambling. That’s my unasked-for pitch for Trollhunters, go watch it, it’s awesome thank you very much!

Campe Fucking Diem - part 2

Marina and Avis knelt on the floor, scrubbing the floors of the mess hall with toothbrushes dejectedly, Marina was humming aggressively. "This sucks. This is the kind of peasant work my parents left their home country to avoid," Max grumbled. "Yeah, I don't get the point, what good is rolling around on the floor if it's clean?" Nikki agreed. "I agree, I've been through two whole musicals in my head already, two! Do you know how long those things are? Oh, and Avis keeps cleaning in the shapes of pentagrams." Marina complained, gesturing to Avis who was glaring at Quartermaster, not once blinking or looking down while she still managed to create a perfect pentagram shape. Which was honestly concerning as they had to deduce it was probably from practice of drawing sacrificial signs without looking and if so, how the hell did she spend her spare time? "I think she wants to sacrifice David," Marina said. "Fine by me," Max enabled with a sarcastic, cheerful tone. "This isn't even part of a sanctioned camp activity. This is child labour," Neil accused. Erid walked past them at that moment and they all followed her with their eyes (except Avis who was still glaring) as she leaned against the wall nonchalantly. Waving her fringe with a soft hum. "Man, Erid never gets yelled at for not working, she's just too cool. I wish I was her," Nikki fawned. "Erid?" Neil repeated, "like a dried desert climate?" Marina continued for him and he turned to her with a drawn out gasp of awe. Eyes widening at her display of intelligence, "IQ level above common stupidity." He whispered, high pitched. Staring at Marina, flustered, while she remained oblivious. "I think her real name is Meridith but she's just so frickin' cool she goes by the middle part of her name. Oh," she perked up, "I wonder if I should try that. Ikk," she tested, "Oooh, yeah." "That's fuckin' stupid, nicknames don't make you cool." Max scoffed. "Psh, spoken like a true first part nicknamer," Nikki mocked. "Yeah, Maxinne." Marina said. "No one's too cool to talk to, even cool kids take giant, uncomfortable shits from time to time. Helps remind you that were all equal." Max reasoned. "Inspiring Maxinne, truly inspiring. I wonder if the counsellors share your opinion." Marina mused sarcastically. "Hey you chillen' cut your yammerin' and get back to scrubbin'," Quartermaster's grumbling interrupted them, further proving Marina's point. They all began cleaning again bitterly. "If we were in charge, things would be so much better. No scrubbing, no outdoors." "No David." Max suggested into Neil's angry rant, "no laws against sacrificial rituals." Avis joined in, everyone turned to her, giving her looks of slight fear and uncomfortableness. "What?" She asked dumbly. "We should just revolt." Neil huffed, Max sat up, realisation coming over his features. "Know what? You're right," He stood up and began yelling, "aren't you all sick of this lowly work?! It's time we take control of our lives and fight back! Who's with me?" He rallied, everyone cheered along with him. They overpowered the quartermaster and tied him up to a chair, reeking havoc in the lack of authoritative figures. Marina was dancing and mouthing wildly into her toothbrush, uncoordinated and undignified. Avis jumping up and down on the quartermasters head, a look of sadistic glee on her face as she cackled. "We got ourselves an uprisin'," Quartermaster yelled at the opened door and everyone turned, smiling cynically at David and Gwen paused in the doorway. Avis jumped down onto the floor with a dramatic thud, still grinning maniacally.

David and Gwen were currently tied up to the Camp Camp flag pole, David was tied upside down as per Avis' request. "Max, I am very disappointed in you, but I'm also torn, because you were clearly paying attention in knot tying class." David attempted to scold him. "Actually that was all Marina and Avis. They know a lot about tying up bodies surprisingly." Nikki informed. Marina and Avis smirked, low high-fiving. "You need to know, where I'm from." Marina said cynically, her Australian accent clear. "Well that's slightly ominous." David said in a weak voice before he was slapped by Max. "Shut up! We're in charge now, Davie. The camp is ours!" He spoke villainously, causing a bunch of cheers and yells from the campers. "This is just like Les Mis, I love it!" Preston fangirled eagerly. "Don't make this lame Preston." Max scolded. "Max let us down now, Cameron Campbell is coming to camp tomorrow and we need to get ready." David pleaded desperately. "Oh even better. You'll definitely be fired once he sees the state the camp is in. Or will be in." He said. "Come on everyone." "Oh Gwen we have to stop them!" David said, "yeah, I refuse to sit up here for the next 24 hours." Gwen ranted angrily, Neil reached up and tucked an iPad into the ropes in front of her face, streaming videos of reality junk TV. And thus, Gwen was successfully dealt with. She gasped, "oh my gosh, trash TV." She drooled, pressing her face against the screen. "Gwen! Gweeenn!" David cried dramatically as Marina and Avis walked away.

"Alright free men, now that the revolution is complete, it's time to choose our new leader, obviously I will happily take-" "I vote Erid!" Max's speech in front of everyone on his stage was interrupted as Nikki eagerly yelled. "What?" Max yelled. "Cool," Erid said, "I vote Erid as vell, she is strong und passionate, und so cool!" Dolph jumped up happily and everyone cheered in agreement. "Woah, woah, woah, hold the hell up. Did you nerds forget who revolutionised this place? I should be leading you. Not sports Barbie over here." Max argued. "If I remember correctly it was Neil who suggested the idea." Marina piped up lazily and Neil gasped at her words, bouncing on his heels as his eyes shimmered with happiness, "recognition," voice a high octave in disbelief and excitement as he whisper yelled. "And Erid's charisma modifier is like plus ten!" Nerris argued. "Thanks Nerris." Erid thanked cooly. "That's cool of you to say." "I wanna be cool too Erid!" Nikki burst out desperately. "Sure thing Nikki, everyone can be cool at Camp Cool Kidz!" Erid encouraged nicely, "oh! I love that name!" Preston yelled happily. "No!" Max shouted indignantly. "You're gonna get taken advantage of by the one percent. Rage against the machine, fight the power nine/eleven!" Max attempted to rally the campers to rebel, futilely. "Progressive buzzvords can't save you now." "But Erid doesn't have the spreadsheet software to manage-" Neil piped up but was interrupted by an awestruck Nikki, "that's 'cause spreadsheets aren't cool. Right Erid?" Erid paused for a moment as wind rustled around her cooly. "Right." "I vote Erid too!" Space Kid put his hand up eagerly. "No you don't." "No I don't." Space kid agreed with Max blindly. The campers laughed and cheered as they followed Erid, Max snagging Nikki's arm to hiss at her angrily, "what the hell's wrong with you, traitor?!" "I'm sorry! You said to talk to her, and uh, I panicked, so I just voted for her!" She apologised. "You'll regret this." "Yo, Nikki. I got you a pair of cool sunglasses." Erid twirled the shades in between her fingers promisingly. "...Nah, I don't think so." Nikki told Max before running off. He growled angrily. "Hey, Marina you can come too if you want. You could play us some sick beats." Marina contemplated thoughtfully but was saved the trouble of coming to a decision when Max hissed through gritted teeth. "Don't. You. Dare." Marina narrowed her eyes at his rudeness but shrugged and declined, "nah," Erid shrugged, "hey, gotta be loyal. I get that." She smiled softly at her and finger gunned her with respect. "Avis? I think you jacket is totally cool. I have some spares if you'd like some?" She turned to her and smiled briefly, her hair waving with the motion of her head, Avis blushed, surprised at the offer. She turned to Marina. "Sorry." She whispered, but Marina shook her head, "no, I get it. Gotta be gay. Go, make me proud." She gave her a thumbs up, clapping her on the shoulder supportively and Avis saluted her with two fingers.

In the Mess Hall everyone was partying happily, Avis was wearing a new leather jacket with studs and was admiring it happily. Erid and Nikki were at a couch, Erid fiddled with the Quartermaster's hook idly, throwing it where it landed with a thud and Nurf commented, "bullseye!" To which Erid acknowledged, "cool." "Everyone's so much happier now, thanks to you!" Nikki said, "how're the plans for the giant half-pipe coming?" Erid turned to her, Nikki unrolled some plans. "Should be ready to build as soon as we learn basic architecture. What a cool idea, Erid" she complemented. "I know, think of all the sick 900's we could do off that thing." "Yeah! I totally know what that is!" Nikki lied eagerly. "Erid, it's cold and boring outside." Nerris complained, "I cast an invisibility charm to conceal David and Gwen, can we come inside for a bit?" She implored. "Oh, totally, Magic Dudes. In fact..." She stood up, "everyone gets a break!" She clapped and disco balls fell from the ceiling and strobe lights flashed, "dance party!" She called.

Meanwhile, in the midsts of the forest Neil and Space Kid were huddled around a fire, chanting repeatedly while Marina sang tribal sounding words in time with their chant. "Fellow freemen." Max emerged from the shadows, black painted around his eyes and decorating his naked chest. "There comes a time when a group must fight back against tyranny. Like the Minutemen of the revolution, we will fight for our independence!" He pound his fist into his hand. "Minuteman. Mommy calls Daddy that when they argue." Space Kid replied dumbly. "...I'm not sure I'm comfortable with this." Neil said unsurely. "I am. Completely. Time to turn passive aggressive into violent aggressive." Marina narrowed her eyes. "Silence! We're gonna hit Camp Cool Kidz with everything we've got!" Max shushed him, "freebrother Neil. What've you got?" Max finished lamely. Neil drew out two bombs and Marina started and took a step back, "woah!" "I was saving these to put in David's underpants." "Nice." Marina commented and Neil blushed a deep red, fumbling with the bombs as he laughed breathily, sighing lovingly. Marina remained blindly oblivious. "Perfect." Max said, referring to the explosives. Space Kid drew put two pine cones, "I was saving these to-" "no one cares" Max dismissed him, "here's how it'll work. Space Kid is the most expendable, so he'll be our decoy." Marina patted Space Kid's shoulder pityingly.

Avis was kneeled beside David, a suspiciously red pentagram was drawn beneath him as he snored and beside her was an opened can of gasoline, some knives, and a book. She reached a hand under her beanie and drew out a matchbox, striking a match against the side, waiting for it to catch alight. Suddenly, a mob of angry campers charged past, chasing Space Kid while yelling war cries, waking David who immediately asked, "what are you kids doing?" Disapprovingly. Nikki, who followed the angry mob, answered him happily, "we're gonna kill Space Kid!" "Oh! I wanna!" Avis shouted eagerly, she dropped the matches in favour of sprinting to join the mob. The matches landed on the ground just as they sparked and set alight. "What? No!" David yelled after them desperately, shrieking as he noticed the lit match rolling close to a spilled puddle of gasoline. "Aaah, help!" His voice rose in a girly pitch and he desperately blew at the flame, trying to extinguish the threat to his life, yelping as his attempts caused a small fire on some grass, dangerously close to the spill. He whimpered. They ran into the forest after Space Kid who was standing behind a blanket of leaves, holding his pine cones up. "We've got you now! Let's saw him in half!" Harrison yelled ferociously. They charged at him but fell as they crossed the leaves which gave way to reveal a trap, Avis came up behind them having been slower. "Aaw, man. I always miss the cool stuff." Avis complained, Marina stepped out of the shrubbery. "If you want cool stuff you could jump and we could reenact the last scene of Titanic?" Marina offered, Avis considered for a moment before shrugging and leaping into the whole with her arms stretched out. "I'll never let-!" Marina cut off as she drew her arms back from being ready to catch Avis, allowing her to fall into the hole with a thud and a monotonous "ow." "That's fair." Avis called up. "Woah, awesome!" Nikki complimented as she came across the trap. Erid crossed her arms and coughed pointedly. "I mean, you fiend!" Nikki corrected. "You're the fiend!" Max snarled, revealing himself. Neil hugged his bare chest uncomfortably, Marina noticed their serious faces and hurried to pose angrily too. "What do YOU losers want?" Erid asked, annoyed. "JUSTICE!" Neil yelled, trying to look cool in front of Marina. "You guys are here to rescue me?!" Poor, sweet, naive David. He's still almost on fire, by the way. "NO. Shut up, David." "Aw." David whined at Max's response. "Pssh, I'd like to see you try and fight us." Erid insulted. "Gladly." Max spun around his spear, narrowly missing Neil and Marina who leaned backwards like she was doing the limbo with a squawk. The spearhead flew off and crashed somewhere, breaking some random glass and probably hurting a duck (judging by the quack). "Nikki... Attack." Erid commanded and Nikki dropped to all fours. "BARK BARK BARK!" She and Max circled each other dramatically, Max holding the spear warily. The sun rose slowly behind them, enhancing the dramatic scene. "No fighting! Violence never solves anything!" David attempted, "STAB HER, BITCH!" Gwen cheered, looking at her screen with sadistic glee. Nikki launched herself at Max with a growl, he threw her off using his stick but she charged again, snapping ferociously at his weapon. "WOOH!" Marina cheered from the sidelines, chewing on some random nuts she had found like popcorn. "YOU GOT THIS MAXINNE!" Then speaking to Neil out of the corner of her mouth in a loud whisper. "He don't got this." "Nikki, give it up, she doesn't care about you! She just uses people!" Max tried to sway Nikki. "Don't listen to him, Nikki!" Erid yelled. "Don't worry Erid! I know it's not true!" Nikki shouted back positively. "Uh, no, of course it's true, just don't listen to him! I need you on my side." Erid hissed. "That fits. With like, the rest of society." Avis commentated from the hole in a voice that made it sound like she was shrugging. "I'll save you, Nikki!" Harrison crawled out of the hole desperately. "FIRE!" A pillar of flames shot from his hands and lit the gasoline beneath David, lighting the ropes on fire. "Oh god! Someone stop-drop-and-roll me." David yelped. "Oopsie." "You suck, Harrison!" Nerris yelled. Max threw Nikki off with one final shove and she fell back, her sunglasses flying off her head and shattering. Erid approached the broken accessory and Nikki. "This is decidedly uncool." Nikki's eyes watered like a kicked puppy. "I AGREE! SOMEONE PUT ME OUT!" David yelled, panicking. "Reverse fire!" Harrison's body was thrown out of the pit and hit the flaming ropes, putting them out but his jacket caught on fire. He helped and threw it to the ground. Avis emerged from where she had shoved Harrison out of the way, panting and flopping to the ground. "And she crawls out of hell again!" She commentated, punching a fist in the air before slumping back down, tired. "Well at least I'm okay!" David smiled cheerfully. Screaming fearfully as a car rammed into the post, breaking it. Thankfully, the break made the ropes snap and David and Gwen fell off, freed. Unthankfully; Two feet stepped out, an anklet tracker beeping on one. "Did somebody say... Cameron Campbell?" "No. Who the fuck-" "Marina, language." David scolded, pushing off his ropes. "Whom the fuck-" "no." David gave up. "Mr Campbell? You saved me!" David praised, kneeling in front of him, in awe. "Yes! I definitely saw you and was fully aware hitting you with my car would be the best course of action!" Cam-Cam agreed. He looked around. "Please, excuse the condition of the camp, sir. Things got a little out of hand, but we can fix it, I swear!" David apologised, taking one of Cam-Cam's hands in his. Cam squinted in disgust and shook him off, fixing his composure, he laughed. "The old 'taking-over-the-camp-from-the-camp-counsellors-and tying-them-to-the-flagpole' routine! I remember my first time." He sighed, humming and walking around the destruction to take some money out of a safe by the couch. "Hey, Cam-Cam!" Marina called angrily. "Can't you see this guy is a terrible counsellor and he needs to be dealt with?" Max continued, "eh? Oh, sorry kids, I've got other things to deal with." Marina narrowed her eyes in indignation. "Campbell's got a poker game to get to! I'm not gonna give too many details, but let's just say if I win, I could end up being the Prime Minister of Thailand." He gave away. "But our revolution?" Neil asked, "this is serious! We're leading a charge to make a difference, we are the 99 percent! I saw it on TV!" Max raged. "Oh, you kids and your dreams. So full of hope and ignorance, someday, you'll learn that no matter how righteous you think you're cause is, there is always someone bigger to keep you down!" Cameron spoke cheerfully. "And that day is today, and that someone is me." "Say what now?"

So here we are, back at the start, everyone - including Gwen and David - scrubbing the floors under Cameron's supervision. "Make it shine now, kids! I had to cut costs on provisions, so you'll all be reusing those toothbrushes later!" He called jovially, leaving. "Well, I feel like that was futile. Sorry, Max." Nikki apologised. "It's alright. I think we know this is all Neil's fault." "Yep, lesson learned. Never try to change anything, ever." "Hey, where's Avis anyway?" Neil asked Marina. "Oh, she left about two minutes ago, I don't know what she was doing but she had sharpened her toothbrush so it looked like a knife." Marina casually stated. "That seems about right." Max agreed. They continued scrubbing, ignoring as the Quartermaster fell onto the floor behind them. "Ow."

Watching The Trial for the first time

SPOILERS!!

Okay I’ve never done this before, but I don’t think you’d be happy if you had to scroll through a post full of spoilers to get to the bottom of your Dashboard, so I’ll put the reactions below the cut.

(I watched it on YouTube btw.)

(I also put screenshots of, like, almost every single scene, so, extra beware I guess.)

-I have been freaking out for literally a week for this.

-Starting with a scene from the promo...

Ah, the ultimate punishment. Loneliness.

-Aquamarine: “My Diamonds I have captured Rose Quartz”  BD: “Finally, for so long I’ve been waiting for my revenge on that little sh--”  YD: “Lol ok just chuck her in a vault”

NEW GEM!!

-SHE’S A ZIRCON!!

-I love her voice!!

-Where’s her gem though... is it the thing on her neck?

*insert tfw meme here*

-Annnd scene from promo again

Sooo I’m assuming it’s a triangle because of the current Diamond Insignia...

-That means it would’ve been a diamond if Pink Diamond was still around.

what a smug lil green sh-t

-Are Zircons all lawyers? Is Zircon the Gem equivalent of lawyers?

-Man, Blue Zircon must be having a crappy day, having to defend an intergalactic criminal that the entirety of Homeworld’s (probably) been hating for the past few millennia.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YELLOW PEARL’S VOICE

-It sounds like it got an octave higher with twice the voice crack

-”aLL RISE FOR THE LIRLMADTDASDFGASY YelLOW DiAmOND”

-Is Yellow Pearl going through puberty

-BLUE PEARL TALKED

-(Did she talk before? I forgot.)

-She’s so quiet

THE GIANT SPACE LADIES ARE TELEPORTING

oOOHHHHHHHHHH

-THE PART THAT DROVE TUMBLR CRAZY

-SERIOUSLY GUYS MY DASH’S BEEN FLOODING WITH BELLOW FUCKIN DIAMOND BECAUSE OF THAT PROMO

-Little question: Why do their attire keep changing?  In Message received, YD had the long coat thing around her waist and her chest pattern looked like the above, then in That Will Be All, she was missing the coat thing and her chest part was split four ways.  Blue Diamond sometimes wears a hood and sometimes doesn’t.  Do they just shapeshift that often, or are those actual clothes that modify their appearance without shapeshifting? Is Yellow Diamond’s coat thing actually her coat thing?

-If that’s the case that would be a whole lotta fabric.

What’s YD’s hand shape

That moment when a Homeworld Gem sees Steven and thinks “wtf rose quartz”

Blue Diamond didn’t move her lips while talking here??

-Also, I was on the side of hoping that YD’s head thing was her hair, but it looks so much like a helmet by now that I may have to change my opinion.

-Ohhh there’s the quote from the promo

-I’m not sure if it was an animation error, or if BD was talking out of the other side of her mouth (invisible to us), or if Diamonds (or just Gems in general) can talk without moving their lips.

-So I’m guessing the Homeworld trial is meant for very serious cases, and the Diamonds are the judges? No jury or audience? Just the lawyer, the accused and the judge(s)?

their fucking chairs can teleport

OMFG BLUE PEARL DOODLING IS THE BEST THING EVER

-Unless that’s the Homeworld way of recording things

-The lines are so angular, it reminds me of when my tablet pen glitches out and draws a pentagon where I meant to draw a circle

She could have gone on with every single adjective in the dictionary  for hours and I would’ve watched that

Yellow Diamond don’t got time for yo shit

-Yellow Pearl looks so done

So the “Rose Quartz committed a crime” bit was said by Green Zircon. I thought it was Blue Zircon when I heard it in the promo.

-Tbh I think gems of the same kind sound similar except for the Diamonds, and anyway I’m pretty sure it’s the same voice actor

FUCKIN AGAIN, SHE SAID ‘WHY’ BUT DIDN’T MOVE HER LIPS

-AT LEAST FINISH YOUR GODDAMN SENTENCE BEFORE YOU START GOING ALL VENTRILOQUIST ON ME

-”Exhibit A”  Why do you use the human alphabet you smug rocky shits, if y’all are all so proud of yourselves at least make your own goddamn language

-LARS?!?!?!

pfft

-”WHO ARE THOSE HUGE - GIANT - LADIES?!”

-”Humans are loud, absolutely hideous creatures that serve no purpose whatsoever.”  It may be so but we can make a necklace out of you

At every trial, the accused just kind of... sits... in a triangular ditch on the floor?

-Poor Steven, he’s a kid, maybe teen by human age but he’s still mostly a kid, why does he have to go through this

-STOP THAT VENTRILOQUIST SHIT, GREEN ZIRCON

*dramatic sound effect* *rolls eye*

EYEBALL RUBY IS THE WITNESS

-THAT WAS BACK IN SEASON THREE

-HOLY FUCK

-Eyeball Ruby... ‘eye’ witness... heh.

-THE SMALL RED RAGE CHILD IS HERE

-Like, I’m sure this trial is super serious for everyone in there, but I just can’t help laughing at how overly dramatic they are

-And here I thought I’d be crying

Eyeball: “s o o n...” *disappears into the corner*

-”Ugh, she’s good.”

the smug secretary

Are you seriously telling me that doodling with polygons is a legit way of recording things in Homeworld

-”Well, I’m convinced. Time to execute!”  “Not yet.”  Inside YD’s head: hello darkness my old friend, i haven’t got time for this shit, just let this be over...

-Shiiiit I feel so sorry for Blue Zircon

-Yellow Diamond gives exactly 0 fucks

Are their projected oval things hard light w/ weight as well?

Even Steven looks done

“Your mind tricks won’t work on me, Jedi!”

zoOOOOOP

-Someone make a YTP where the pod thing rockets into the air and throws Steven off into the abyss of nothingnes

I’m very very worried for Steven’s safety.

-The Diamonds hate him, Homeworld hates him, he could fall of that platform, one of the Diamonds could literally squish him... the possibilities are endless and he is pretty much doomed

-let him get away please

-And again, I swear Yellow Pearl’s voice got even more nasally than before

-Steven! Your name is Steven! YOU’RE NOT ROSE QUARTZ! YOU’RE STEVEN! *cries in the corner*

“holy shit this is real??”

-Yellow Diamond finally gave a fuck

But I think Blue Diamond’s fucks-given count went down a little

Smug green shit.

-Also Gems either have truly outrageous hair or a strange sense of passion

OH SHIT

-okay, this is a tight spot because LITERALLY NO ONE IN OR OUTSIDE THE SHOW KNOW HOW PINK DIAMOND WAS SHATTERED EXCEPT THE ORIGINAL CRYSTAL GEMS, A FEW HOMEWORLD WITNESSES AND THE CREWNIVERSE (probably)

-I DON’T KNOW and yes thank you BD I was curious about that too, although not quite as angry

-BUT STEVEN DOESN’T KNOW

-HE CAN’T ANSWER??

-I HAVE THE VIDEO ON PAUSE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT

-GOD STEVEN NO

-THIS IS GOING DOWNHILL

Freaking Blue Zircon

And Yellow Pearl

-BUT SERIOUSLY I’D RATHER YOU TRIED TO EXPLAIN YOUR SON-MOM THING THAN THIS

-GOD NO PLEASE

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

-I SHOULDN’T HAVE STARTED WATCHING THIS IN THE LIBRARY. I WANT TO LAUGH REALLY HARD BUT I CAN’T. AND I CAN’T STOP WATCHING.

-”IT WAS A SWORD!”

HOLY FUCK CHILL

-FIRST TIME WE HEARD HER RAISE HER VOICE

-DID BD WITNESS IT

-DID SHE TRY TO CONFIRM STEVEN’S IDENTITY WITH THAT QUESTION

-WHAT THE FUCK

I love how YD’s just sitting there like “yep, this again.”

o shit Blue Diamond has onion powers

-THE ONION FAMILY IS RELATED TO HOMEWORLD!!1!

best face 10/10

See?! You can draw with curves!!

Okay?

-Maybe her powers are related to emotion??

-Or this just happens with Diamonds???

“You... shattered.. her... with a sword...”

-oh god

-OKAY I CALLED IT, I WAS GONNA CRY AFTER ALL

-(ON THE INSIDE)

-Recess time!! Yay!

-”Don’t tumble my rocks!”

-oooOHHHH we’re getting on to something here

-HER PALANQUIN TELEPORTS. WHAT NEXT, HER HOODIE?

fuckin’ Ace Attorney shit goin’ down

Something went wrong with the frame here; Blue Zircon seems to have teleported as well as the screen lurching and the whole ventriloquist stuff again.

-Okay, maybe the episodes were produced in a hurry, or maybe it’s just that the guy who uploaded this on Youtube had some minor glitches in the process.

-”The question no one’s been asking is, ‘how?’”  “I’ve been asking that question.”

It’s like they’re having a dramatic argument at dinner

-But didn’t Rose Quartz like run off, start the rebellion and THEN shatter PD?

-Dunno Blue Zircon, I mean you’ve got some logic there, PD is probably too big for one Rose Quartz anyway, if you don’t mind fan theories do suggest that it was a fusion of all the main Crystal Gems.

-BLUE ZIRCON’S ON A ROLL

-I mean, the aforementioned giant fusion might’ve swept through all her soldiers, but if that was the case there’d be no eyewitnesses left??

-THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT UP, WTF HAPPENED TO PINK’S PEARL

S I L E N T  G A S P

-”They saw the whole thing!”  YES I GET THAT YELLOW DIAMOND BUT WERE THEY JUST SPECTATING AND WHERE ARE THEY NOW

-Yellow Diamond’s reactions are interesting. She either knows something they don’t or really hates this trial with all her being.

-Eyeball Ruby said she witnessed it??

le gasp intensifies

-mmmMMM THAT FISHY FISHY SMELL MMM

-”Wouldn’t her Pearl have cried out in alarm? *opera mode activate* wAAAAATCH OOOOUUUUT MYEIEIEIYYYYYYY DIAAAAMOOOONNNNDDDDUH”

-Maybe Rose Quartz (or the fan theory fusion) shapeshifted?

-(Can fusions shapeshift??)

-what

-THE CONSPIRACY INTENSIFIES

-oHHHH?!?

-DAAAYYUMMMMMMNNNN

-*DEDUCTION INTENSIFIES*

ZIRCON YOUR ARGUMENT IS PERFECTLY REASONABLE BUT I DON’T THINK ACCUSING YOUR LEADERS IN A DICTATORSHIP WORLD LIKE THAT WILL GET YOU OUT OF THIS IN ONE PIECE

-Blue Diamond: *GASP*

-Well at least things are interesting for her

HOLY FUCK YELLOW DIAMOND, FUCKING CHILL

-DUUUUUDE

HOLY FRICKIN FLIP FLAPS

-SHE CAN SHOOT GEM DESTABILIZING RAYS OUT OF HER HAND??

-ah yes the ‘angry villain kills their subordinates’ cliche

-BUT WHAT THE FUCK

-I DON’T THINK YELLOW DIAMOND JUST HATES THIS TRIAL ANYMORE

-i ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed

-EVERYBODY’S GOTTEN ON THE YD-SUSPICION BANDWAGON, HEY WAIT FOR ME

-ARE THE DIAMONDS GONNA FIGHT

SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT

I WISH I HAD MORE CREATIVE VOCABULARY FOR REAKING OUT OTHER THAN REPEATEDLY SAYING ‘SHIT’ AND ‘FUCK’

-Alas, my active vocabulary lags a lot when my brain overloads.

-”Those giant crazy chicks aren’t gonna be distracted forever!”

“dafuq”

DO I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE A WHITE DIAMOND THINGY THING

THEY HAVE A GIANT STATUE OF WHITE DIAMOND ON HOMEWORLD

-Does that mean she’s gone, or is she even above Yellow and Blue? Or is she like a gem deity?

-And the trial was in the little smoking balloon thing...

FFS YD PLS CHILL

And another promo scene +anime face lighting

-holy fuck what happened to Blue I hope she’s okay

-wELL I’M SCREWED, AND ALso outta time so I’ll watch the rest of the episodes tomorrow

-bye bye I’m totally okay (not)

My Immortal: Beauty and the Beast version (Chapter 1)

(Published originally on AO3, on 7/4/2017. Deleted by admins.)

Chapter 1:

Hi my name is Jean Pierre Jaques Gafou Kung Fu LeFou and I have long ebony black hair with sparkles and curls that reaches past my shoulders and chocolate brown eyes like limpid tears and people tell me I look like Jack Black which makes me cry cause he's old and I'm not that heavy I'm just currrveeyy so fk you bythches.

I'm not related to Luke Evans but I wish I was because he's a major fcking hottieeee. I'm a werewolf but my teeth are straight and white. I have pink skin. I'm illiterate which means I never went to school. I live in a place called Villeneuve in France where I get to ride horses and hunt (I'm 27.) I'm a gay man (in case you couldn't tell) and I wear mostly bright pink bow ties and 1700's men's clothes but if I had my wish I would wear just the pink tie and nothing else when I'm with GASTON.

There is another Ghey Guy in the village and his name is Stanley and he wears normal men clothes but once he showed me his red corsets with black lace around it and put on his yellow ball gown he copied from Belle. I told Stanley I could never love him if he dresses like the girl who tried to steal Gaston from me and he cried so many tears with his mascara running and his purple lipstick and red rouge blush all messed up.

His friends Tom and Dick (who is a Dick) saw him like that and yelled at him so now he has to keep his crossdressing hobby done in secret from now on.

I was walking around Villeneuve. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. A lot of preps stared at me. I put my middle finger up at them and said "It's never gonna happen."

"Hey LeFou!" shouted a voice. I looked up and it was...GASTON!

"What's up Gaston?"

"Nothing." he said shyly.

AN: Is it good? PLzzz tell me fangz!

The next day I woke up in my bedroom. It was snowing and raining again. I opened the door of my cottage and went to Gaston's tavern and drank some beer from a mug. There was a big mural of Gaston on the wall who is My Immortal Love. His hair is black ebony and his coat is red velvet with gold on the lapels.

My friend, Belle (AN: Raven dis is u!) came in and grinned at me. She is my friend yeah because she couldn't actually steal Gaston from me because she doesn't like him so it's never gonna happen ladies. (and Gaston!) She flipped her long waist length chocolate brown hair and opened her honey brown eyes. She put on her Beast T-shirt with a gold mini, red fishnets and pointy gold high-heeled boots. We put on our makeup (red lipstick, au naturelle foundation and black eye liner)

"OMFG I saw you talking to Gaston yesterday!" she said excitedly.

"Yeah? So?" I said blushing.

"Do you like Gaston?" she asked as we went out of the tavern and to the village square.

"No I fcking don't!" I shouted.

"Yeah right." she exclaimed. Just then, Gaston walked up to me.

"Hi." he said.

"Hi." I replied flirtily.

Belle shook her head and said "I can't stand you Gaston! You boorish...brainless..." She couldn't stand the sight of him and left. Oh, well. Then I have (perfect, pure paragon) him all to myself.

"Guess what." he said.

"What?" I asked.

"Well, Gentille Charlotte is having a concert in Porcs-Hydromel." he told me.

"Oh. Mon. Frickin. Dieu!" I screamed. I love GC! They are my favorite band, besides Mon Chimique L'Amour.

"Well, do you want to go with me?" he asked.

I gasped.

AN: STOP FLAMIN DA STORY PREPZ! Odderwize fangs 2 da goffik ppl! FANGS AGEN RAVEN!

On the night of the concert I put on my black lace-up boots, and my black breeches and white stockings. Underneath the white stockings I wore black fishnets to express myself in secret. Then I put on my dark red velvet vest with this lacy ruffled white shirt in the back and front. I wore my pink Bow Tie. I curled my hair and didn't wear it in a ponytail and trimmed my sideburns. I'm trying to grow a Mustache. I realized growing a mustache and having sideburns meant I was a man and it made me remember Gaston is a man too, and he liked Belle for L'amour rather than me. He just wants me as a hunting buddy and needed someone to go to a Gentille Charlotte concert with.

I felt a little depressed then, so I slit my wrists.

I read a depressing book (oh wait- it just occurred to me- that I'm illiterate-) so I called Belle and she read the depressing book to me instead. Belle and I waited for it to stop bleeding and we listened to some GC. I painted my nails black and put on TONS of black eyeliner (Screw U Stanley you so jealous now!) I put on some red lipstick the same color as Gaston's coat. I didn't put on foundation because I was bright pink from thinking about Gaston anyway. I drank some wolf blood so I was ready to go to the concert.

I went outside. Gaston was waiting there in his flying horse. He was wearing a "Le Projet élémentaire" T-shirt (they would play at the show too) baggy black hunter pants, his red soldier jacket, black nail polish and a little eyeliner (AN: a lot fo kewl boyz wer it ok!)

"Hi Gaston!" I said in a depressed voice.

"Hi LeFou." he said back. We climbed on his flying black horse Mercedes and flew to the place with the concert. On the way we listened excitedly to Gentille Charlotte and Madame de Goffik Garderobe (featuring Cadenza the Dark Harpsichord of Death.) Gaston smoked a cigar but I didn't. When we got there, we hopped off the horse. We went to the mosh pit at the front of the stage and jumped up and down as we listened to Gentille Charlotte.

"You come in cold, you're covered in blood/They're all so happy you arrived/The doctor cuts your cord, you're handed to Maman/She sets you free into this life." sang Jacques (I don't own da lyrics 2 dat song)

"Jacques is so frcking hot," I said to Gaston, pointing to him as he sung, filling la boîte de Nuit with his amazing voice.

Suddenly Gaston looked sad.

"What's wrong?" I said as we moshed to the music. Then I caught on.

"Hey it's OK I don't like him better than YOU!" I said.

"Really?" said Gaston sensitively so he put his arm around me all protective.

"Really." I said. "Besides I don't even know Jacques and he's going out with Hillary frcking Derrière the Bimbette. I frcking hate that little Chien." I said disgustingly, thinking of her ugly blonde canine face.

The night went on really well, and we had a great time. So did Gaston. After the concert, we drank some beer and asked Benoit and Jacques for their autographs which they signed in black Goth ink and feather quills. We got GC concert tees. Gaston and I climbed back onto Mercedes, but Gaston didn't go back to Porc-Verrues (his magic school where he learns how to be the Perfect Pure Paragon and I think he's secretly a Vampire!)

Instead he rode his horse into...The Beast's Forest!

I said stop flaming ok LeFou's name is LEFOU nut gary stu OK! GASTON IS SOOO IN LUV wif him dat he is acting deferent! dey nu eech odder b4 ok!

"GASTON!" I shouted. "What the frck do you think you are doing?"

Gaston didn't answer but he stopped the flying horse and walked out of it. I walked out of it too, curiously.

"With all due respect- What in the fcking hell?" I asked angrily.

"LeFou?"

"What?" I snapped.

Gaston leaned in extra close and I looked into his gothic-red eyes (he was wearing color contacts) which revealed such depressing sorrow and evilness and then suddenly I didn't feel so mad anymore.

And suddenly- just as I Gaston kissed me passionately. Gaston climbed on top of me and we started to make out keenly against a tree. He took of my top and I took of his clothes. I even took off my bow tie. Then he put his thingie into my you-know-what and we did it for the first time.

"Oh, Gaston!" I screamed. I was beginning to feel all aroused. We started to kiss everywhere and my pale body became all warm.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING YOU MOTHAFCKERS!"

It was...THE BEAST!

Headfirst Slide Into Love on a Bad Bet (Jamilton Fic)

i felt like writing a jamilton fic and i finally got an idea it’s mainly dialogue but oh well frickin deal with it

title’s from “Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet” by Fall Out Boy

“I hate him,” Alex growled to his friends as they rode up the elevator on the way back from lunch.

“Yes,” John sighed. “We know, Alex. You’ve told us at least ten times by now.”

“More like ten million,” Mulligan muttered, rolling his eyes.

“I just...he....ugh.”

“We get it, Alexander,” Lafayette added. “You’re in love with him, and you hate it.” John could barely contain his laughter from the way Alex gaped and reddened at the statement.

“I. Do. Not.”

“Yeah, you do, lil man,” Herc noted. “And everyone knows he’s got the hots for you, too.” The group erupted in chuckles and sounds of agreements, with John making kissy noises.

“No, he does not,” Alexander hissed in response, crossing his arms. The doors opened and he angrily stomped off, only to be stopped by a hand on his shoulder.

“You know what? I’ll make you a deal,” John proposed. “I will literally pay you $20 if you go over to him right now...” John pointed to Thomas, who was standing outside his office, coffee cup in hand, talking to his friend, James Madison, occasionally smiling or even laughing. Whatever, it’s not like Alex thought it was cute...cause he didn’t. Whatever he thought of it was cut short by the next words that came out of John’s mouth.

“...and kiss him.”

“What?!” Alex yelped.

“You heard me,” John retorted.

“You’re a maniac!”

“Come on, mon lion,” Lafayette implored. “We all know you both need this.”

“How about this,” Herc offered, “if Turtle Man over here--”

“Hey!”

“--is wrong, then I’ll match his 20. That way, you either get 40 bucks and slightly embarrassed for a bit or 20 bucks and a boyfriend.”

“Sounds like a pretty good deal to me,” John agreed, giving Alex a look that said “You should really say yes.”

Alex looked at all of his friends’ pleading eyes tight-lipped, but soon he let out a sigh and rolled his eyes.

“Fine,” he conceded. “I’ll do it.” John gave him a smug smile as Lafayette and Hercules high-fived each other.

“Thank you, darlin’,” John drawled in a bad impression of Thomas’s Virginian accent, holding out a folded 20 between his index and middle fingers.

“Yeah, whatever,” Alexander grumbled as he snatched away the bill as he sulked over to where Thomas was just waving goodbye to Madison. The taller man turned and saw the short ball of fury approaching him.

“Oh, well, hello, Hamilton,” he proclaimed. “And how are you this fine--mmf!” He had been cut off by Alexander grabbing him by the collar of his shirt and yanking him down to his level and connecting their lips. Thomas stood frozen for a moment, dropping his (thankfully empty) coffee cup on the ground in shock. After a few seconds, he closed his eyes and melted into the kiss, fitting his hands to Alexander’s waist. This drew a gasp from the smaller man and sent shivers down his spine, and he slid his hands up from their unrelenting grip on Thomas’s collar to wind his arms around his neck, pressing them closer together. As they were pulling apart, they continued to look into each other’s eyes and smiled. They broke their gaze as they turned to face the source of the whoops and whistles they’d heard coming from Alexander’s group of friends. Alexander broke out laughing, and Thomas even cracked a smile at the group.

“So,” Alex heard Thomas say, prompting him to turn and meet his eyes again, “I take this to mean you would like to go for dinner with me this Friday night?”

“Hmmm,” Alex pretended to consider. “I’m sure I could squeeze you in my schedule. And...other places.” He suggested with a wink. He broke out into a giggle when he had seen how Thomas’s eyes had widened in interest. He reached up and kissed him on the nose before sauntering away.

Oh, this is going to be fun.

LE FIN.

welp that’s it hope you enjoyed this wound up being longer than i expected but c’est la vie i guess

so um

bye
