A Tale Of Two Kingdoms (movie mashup AU)

After the war and the great plague, the land was divided. The woodland belongs to the apes and the old settlements belong to the humans now. As long they respect the other's territory, peace maintains, but new conflicts between both species seem inevitable.

Knowing coexistence is only possible if both species start to understand each other better, Ceasar, the leader of the Eagle Clan, sets out on a diplomatic mission to meet with one of the humans' spokeperson named Malcolm. Noa, Ceasar's son who has yet to live up to his father's expectations as the future leader of the clan, accompanies his father's delegation to the human colony where he meets Malcolm's rebellious daughter Mae, who likes to sneak out of the colony to explore the old city ruins.

While Ceasar and Malcolm work together to establish long-term peace between the two species, Noa and Mae grow closer on their secret adventures and fall in love against the odds. But dark forces on both sides rise to prohibit the alliance between apes and humans.

Coba, Cesar's oldest friend and Noa's godfather who despises humans, betrays the Eagle Clan by turning to Proximus, the leader of a rival clan who seeks dominion over both apes and humans. Coba and Proximus attempt to assassinate Ceasar, leaving him severly injured while they take charge of the apes and attack the colony.

Meanwhile Malcolm's political rival Korina contacts Colonel McCullough, the ruthless leader of a mercenary army, to help the colony get rid of their ape problem. When the soldiers attack the apes and start to threaten the colonists as well, Koba sacrifices himself to save Noa and make up for his betrayal. Stepping into his father's footsteps Noa confronts Proximus and defeats him while Mae saves the colony by blowing up the Colonel's base.

After defeating their common enemies, apes and humans forge a new alliance with Noa and Mae's love as a beacon of hope for a better future and peaceful coexistence between apes and humans. edit

Truly those calling it “bad writing” that Robin and Vickie share similarities doesn’t make sense. She’s not been given enough time to be more than just a love interest, but we do have some info about her:

1. Molly Ringwald inspo, giving us shorthand about being kind of a quirky gal. Hat! Visually, she’s similar to Robin, but that’s not a bad thing because literally similar interests draw people together. She is also skirts vs Robin’s trousers. Femme/Soft Butch! You’re telling me Vickie would wear a tie? Lies.

2. Likes goofy jokes, namely Steve’s joke about Muppet Tammy. Which, Robin doesn’t laugh at Steve’s jokes that much- she dismisses them, but it means Vickie has a bit of a jocular sense of humour.

3. Vickie also likes Steve’s brand of movies, not Robin’s- which is pretty fucking funny. Again, this is not making Vickie similar to Robin, but to things shared with Robin’s Platonic Soulmate. Like, bro movies? Stupid lil jokes? I predict Steve and Vickie having a dad joke competition next season & torturing Robin with how corny they are. People like to talk about the similarities to Robin, but not the similarities to Steve! That’s kind of clever drawing Vickie closer to one of Robin’s favourite people, at least superficially.

4. Talks a lot when one on one, but Vickie wasn’t nervous/flustered in the band scene, so we can infer in more crowded spaces she acts differently/subdued - as like she was in the War Zone. This is unlike Robin who does actually ramble in group scenes, like freaking out over the thing in El’s leg, the rabies bit, or generally a lot of Season 4 where she looses her “cool girl” archetype from Season 3 in favour of chaos. Vickie seems more like she would quietly panic, as opposed to Eddie, Argyle, and Steve who all loudly go WHAT THE FUCK. Which is going to be interesting to see as the whole town is now thrown into an open gate downtown Hawkins probably releasing demogorgons every other hour like it’s Pacific Rim up in this bitch.

5. Meaningful look with Robin in the War Zone- not “oh hi band friend!” A scared/caught/dismayed look that she was there. So there is a connection, and she broke up with her boyfriend after that connection. Anything more is speculation, but the way she wasn’t looking at Robin when she gave the “he doesn’t like Fast Times” reason lets the audience draw points and maybe she felt trapped? Like it was just an excuse to pursue a different interest? Obviously because music is playing indicating a romantic relationship. We don’t have much to compare Robin with on this one, but around Keith she still had more confidence and bullshittery trying to convince him to hire Steve when Keith assumed they were a thing.

6. Vickie also doesn’t seem jealous. Robin is jealous. She was livid at Steve for being the object of Tammy’s affections, but Vickie hasn’t seemed to even look twice at Steve- even as Robin looked over at him while she and Vickie had her last scene.

For such a short amount of time in the season, I think that we have a good foundation for similarities and differences to Robin. Also, once again, it’s not a crime to avoid “opposites attract” tropes. Having similarities is good! Like, the amount of couples I know that are essentially the same archetype of queer person is not even close to zero. Especially when it comes to older queer couples who got together in the 80s/90s, they kind of morph into being one granola bar of a human being. Kind of similar with straight people when they genuinely like one another.

I hope they flesh Vickie out, but like, we’ve gotten a similar amount of screen time for Mr Clarke but no one is mad he is “one dimensional” when he is just, some exposition science guy. He’s a stock and standard teacher, has a girlfriend, and kind of goes along with explaining shit without questioning why a lot. But folks love Mr Clarke. Is it because Mr Clarke isn’t getting in the way of your ship?

I never thought I would see the day there were some true blue f/f ship wars, but bruh, Robin’s love life isn’t an A Plot so give the writers some slack. They’re human, not the devil. None of you were gleeks and it shows so fucking much. None of you lived through “angry lesbians on the internet don’t want me dating you”.

Personally I’m looking forward to Robin and Vickie getting together and maybe hopefully kicking monster butt together- or at least, Robin getting a nice little badass moment defending her gal.

[juniperhillpatient]

there’s some characters I can ship with almost anyone. like Natalie Scatorccio? Misty & Travis both stepped out of line of what everyone else was doing & protected her during the hunt after she drew the queen card. Travis & Nat had a tragic doomed on again off again junky situationship as adults & I’m always a sucker for that. Misty & Nat were bestfriends as adults even if they bickered constantly & I’ll never get over “hello Misty you crazy fucking bitch” & Nat sitting in that room waiting for Misty to get home with a gun. Lottie & Nat? Lottie is the prophet & Nat is the hunter who doesn’t believe. They’re rivals who respect each other. Nat laying her head in Lottie’s lap as an adult & a clip of her as a teen doing the same? Lottie feeding Nat & Travis her blood to protect them on their hunts (tragically underrated poly ship tbh) I could go on & on but Nat is the most shippable character. Many such cases

but like there’s other characters I don’t even understand the appeal or purpose of shipping them with anyone but each other. like Shauna? Jackie? Everything they do is about each other I’m sorry if you somehow (delusionally) think otherwise?? But that’s just canon? They’re literally so obsessed with each other it kills one of them & leaves the other haunted for the rest of her life? I don’t know where you end & I begin. Shauna ATE Jackie & she played with her corpse for months first. She kept her high school uniform in her closet & thought of her everyday & still hallucinates her as an adult. I’m so sorry where is even the appeal of any other ship for these 2 lmao. Again, many such cases

I love marina to!!! who do you ship her with?

Yay! My girl deserves all the love tbh.

My Marina Ships:

Colin/Marina - Very basic I know but I think it says a lot about what she thought of him that she picked him to be her baby daddy (and it says so much about him that he said he would've gladly married her if she told him the truth, I'm inclined to believe him.) and I'm a sucker okay.

Daphne/Marina - Mostly because they are character foils but also because they are pretty and also because both of them deserved more friends. I like to think they at least write letters to each other still!

Simon/Marina - This is my big reach but I just can absolutely see Simon being absolutely okay with another man's kid inheriting his estate as a big fuck you to his dad. And again, they'd be soooo pretty together.

“We have a bond, remember?”

Yo’ hate me now for loving all four of these ships, but here’s a Spotify Playlist I made for all of them: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0r6r8kZKWkEZ3s6oUOSGDE?si=bd9bf4ad09b64e6a

I am well-aware that these are all not canon which honestly breaks my heart, but I am still very happy with the moments and bond and understanding they all have formed throughout their own show (except for AdriZoe, obviously... I admit that it’s only in my hcs, but the potential they had in my mind is the same reason I love what the other ships canonically have).

I know not all RobRae shippers like the others (I guess some are even Maiko lol), Zutarians probably like the Love Square and Filay while Klaybarra shippers just mind their own thing ig? Still, I heavily respect those people who has different opinions and tastes from mine (all canon couples from each show at least make sense, and I like some of them, in fact). 

However, I want to dedicate this post to all of them (probably could have included NS, but I have my own 11 hr playlist for them lol).

I’m so proud of my ships, because I love them, canonically or just in my hcs for the bond, understanding, and just downright healthy relationship they all have formed, endgame or not (I actually never wanted Klaybarra to be endgame in the novel, it could have been better if it’s in the real world, so don’t @ me by saying I want Ibarra to cheat on Maria Clara lol). There’s a difference between loving a ship and wanting them to be canon, thank you very much. There’s nothing wrong in enjoying the dynamic :)) 

I just love how all of them were broken and kindred souls who found comfort and refuge in another, and friends-to-lovers trope is just superior<333

Anyway, my ramblings are enough, I hope you enjoy this day everyone!!

like the gods do - a gale / eden playlist

"When you wake, it will be back at our camp, back in our small, dirty, bloody patch of existence. But stay with me now. There are endless worlds out there. Countless ways to declare love. Infinite ways to express it. Too much for one night… But we'll certainly try."

a very self-indulgent playlist for an oc/canon ship i did not expect to get as attached to as i am right now.

the vibe here is loving someone to the level of religious devotion, where specific labels like "romantic" and "platonic" matter less than the bond and care you have for someone. the future is uncertain and the gods are against you, but you're unafraid. after all, the god who stands beside you is the only one that truly matters, and his faith in you gives you the strength to carry on, the audacity to become gods yourselves.

J/C is too easy...(though if you wanna answer for them too, I will happily listen ^.^) How about...hmmm. Finn and Poe?

Oh, goodness, I'm about to get sniped aren't I. (For the sake of keeping myself alive, I will not talk about a SW opinion in the same spot as a J/C opinion.)

Uh...

Don’t Ship It

1. Why don’t you ship it?

Honestly, I think this was 100% just a result of seeing "No one would talk to their friends like that" too many times. I don't dislike this ship, I COMPLETELY understand where it comes from, and we could do FAR worse when it comes to the idea of a non-canon mlm ship turning canon (especially in a Disney property). People around me were (are) just...too into the idea that admiration and complimenting someone have to be seen as inherently romantic, and I think hearing that so many times annoyed me to the point where I couldn't get any kind of enjoyment out of it. (I have and do speak to my own friends in such ways.) Also, I just...don't want to think about shipping in the context of the sequel trilogy anymore. At all.

2. What would have made you like it?

So I really liked TFA. If the other two sequel trilogy movies had been written...let's just say.......in a way that I found more narratively-satisfying................I probably could have been here for this ship. And if they threw in some intense mutual pining, I would have been all over that shit.

3. Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?

The actors play off of each other very well, and their reactions are genuinely touching and full of heart. Their relationship (before the sequel movies just decided to sideline Finn and really...almost everyone tbh) held significant narrative weight, and Poe's treatment WAS the catalyst for Finn making the final leap to switch sides, and Poe never seemed to judge Finn for his past either. Obviously they're capable of having a genuine positive influence on each other (not that that's a necessity for me to like a ship, lmao), so it's not like I think this pairing is impossible or unworkable. (Also they're a bi4bi ship which I think is hella rad.) Like I said before, it's not even anything to do with the ship itself, it was the reactions of the people around me.

Ship ask game

[feline-evil]

Twiddling my thumbs thinking about Vkaz for fun (aka: being sad abt them)...

Like. The man you once loved took everything from you; your home, the future you'd built. You shed blood for him, lost limbs for him, lost years of your life for him. There is a man he also took everything from; his face, his life, his memories. You feel a solidarity in that, a kinship, a closeness. But. He has his face. He has his goddamn face, grafted and stitched together to look just like him. So this man, this one man who you feel the most understanding with looks like the man you now hate the most, the man you broke your heart. How much time does it take for that wound to start to heal, how much time before you can start to get close enough to see the imperfections in his face; see those little differences, too subtle for it to matter but noticeable enough to you, because you know this face through and through. How much time before that face becomes his own to you, instead of his. How many times does he say he's sorry before you tell him he's not him, he's not him he didn't do this; no matter what he says he's not him. He's a phantom, an empty space molded in the shape of him, but he can be something more; he can choose, he can be better than him, his future is his own. How much time before you take his hand and look into his eye and tell him you'll help him find that future. Together.
