I hate when people call Kyojuro weak for dying to Akaza.

It’s like “lol this 20-year-old human man got killed by the fourth most powerful demon on the planet that’s been gaining more power for thousands and thousands of years. Said 20-year-old man sustained what he was well aware was a fatal injury but he kept fighting up until his very last dying breath in order to ensure the survival of every other human there until the demon had no choice but to run away, which was very difficult for him to do because he punched the 20-year-old human man through the chest and the 20-year-old human man controlled his breathing so he literally trapped him there so the demon could not free his arm but yeah no the 20-year-old human man is such a loser for dying to that guy even though there were NO other casualties and he saved EVERYONE there”

Like shut up. Shut the fuck up do you hear yourself 😭

for today's poolverine-adjacent thoughts, i offer you: Major Character Death! please scroll past if you reasonably want to avoid this.

so most of the time i just ignore that logan is aging slowly while wade seems literally immortal, because most days i don't have the emotional bandwidth to deal with the implications. but i do have a longstanding soft spot for fic about grief and picking up after and finding ways to go on after having and then losing the love of your life. so sometimes i like to think about--they get a good two or three hundred years together, and it's the happiest either of them have ever been and they grow into and change each other and are so, so in love. and then logan dies.

and for a long time--decades--wade is just...not really in the world. sometimes literally (he spends a good eight years holed up in a cave mostly asleep, letting the sensation of starving to death become soothing white noise) and sometimes in the sense that he'll eat and get out of bed and maybe even find some kind of work to do, but he isn't there.

but eventually--because he is human, and this is what happens to humans--he connects with someone again. not in the same way (never the same way, it's never going to be the same) but he finds himself taking care of someone who needs help, or running into the same person often enough that he starts to respond when they try to start a conversation with him, or just--someone. somewhere. that buried rusting part of his heart creaks to life, the way he was sure it never would again.

and god, how badly i want a story about the slow agonizing process of coming back to life, realizing that despite knowing how it'll end, despite everything, he does still want to reach out and build that connection. and he can. his heart can do that, still. and how beautiful and horrible it is that he can feel this way again even though logan is gone. i want him to get to a place where he can tell his loved ones stories about logan, all those centuries of funny and sad and sexy and stupid stories they made together. and i want him to have that again, with someone else. and then someone after that, and after that, and forever.

Akashi on the mind (because who the fuck else lives in my head rent free) and I was just thinking about he's not only good at everything but he also makes everything look easy and that's why people feel comfortable putting so much faith in him/putting him on a pedestal. Especially because Akashi makes it so that he appears to have no weak spots when that could not be farther from the truth. It's all just an image to hide the fact that he's not perfect. But you know what? I think, for the sake of humanizing him, the rest of the KNB cast needs to see Akashi do something and struggle while doing it.

People need to be able to look at his face and feel like they can physically hear the gears turning in his head. I need him to attempt something and then everyone watches him space out for an extended period of time while he figures out how the fuck he's gonna actually do the thing. Let him be clumsy as he finds his way. Let him have a trial-and-error process. Let him be successful at doing something while still having the privilege of not getting it right the first time. LET HIM NOT BE PERFECT.

"Why Kendratello? It seems so random?"

THESE SCENES JUST CASUALLY EXISTING.

Also also: JUST IGNORING THESE SCENES

How about acknowledging this?

i love the prospect that in a post-war au, some humans are talking to coswave about words for s/o's and someone goes "huh, well in english we have a few, you guys just have conjunx or bonded, right?" and cosmos is like "💕💕🤭🥰yeah soundwave is my conjunx🥰🤭💕💕" and soundwave is like "affirmative ... 💕" but someone's like "oh, well we have husband, wife, spouse, partner there are probably more but those are the main ones" and soundwave's like "!!" and cosmos is like "oh, you like one?" and soundwave just echoes out in perfect monotone, "soundwave: cosmos' loving wife" and that's it because i think she deserves it

The emojis made me giggle way too hard hold on. Cosmos absolutely uses a downright atrocious amount of emojis it’s more emoji than text. Hold on gimme a second

I totally love the idea of post war Cosmos and Soundwave get conjunxed and Soundwave regularly lets Cosmos go with him on his trips to Earth. Naturally the discussion of marriage is brought up and Cosmos is way too happy to talk about how much he loves his Conjunx (Soundwave doesn’t talk much about his personal life to humans. Or anyone, really. But especially to the humans—there’s only one human he’d be comfortable with talking to about that, and he’s gone). Cosmos is like a sponge, he loves learning new things about different species and integrating it into his own life if he can. So naturally, when he learns about different terms of endearment and names for loved ones, he’s quick to adapt them to show his affection for his Conjunx (though, he doesn’t quite understand strict gendered terms. He immediately calls Soundwave his wife and refuses to be corrected by anyone).

Soundwave finds it very silly and charming. Cosmos tries out different pet names (honey, darling, sweetheart, baby) and some receive a giggle of amusement while others receive a crinkled nose of displeasure. Cosmos chooses pet names depending on how amused Soundwave gets when he’s called them (“darling” always gets a flare of amusement from his partner, as does “honey” and “lover”).

Soundwave doesn’t quite understand nor care for pet names, but if they make his Conjunx happy then he’s happy to accept the new nicknames.

THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!!!! ❤️❤️❤️🛸🛸 I’m sorry I always go on rambles when I answer asks ehehehfhf

Is it just me, or did Taash feel like a last-minute inclusion, almost as if the devs shaved off part of another character's arc and gave it to her to make her seem more relevant to the overall story?

[Major spoilers]

Bellara: She provides an expert opinion on ancient eleven technology and is one of the two characters capable of controlling the Blight, she provides the background for Anais's appearance, and she provides an insight into how the elves want to remember their religion, culture, and history.

Davrin: He has a major contribution to the world lore (Grey Wardens, Griffons, the Blight), and needs to be there in the beginning to kill the Archdemon. I'd argue that he provides a counter to Bellara on eleven culture - Bellara cares a lot about who the elves are and how they should be seen, and Davrin is just an ordinary Dalish elf, the sort who'd benefit/suffer by the spread of the information about the ancient elves.

Plus, I think he was actually supposed to be the 'dragon hunter.' His personal quest establishes that he knows how to track and attract different kinds of creatures, but that he's looking for meaning, rather than just something to hunt - and so it would have made a lot of sense for him to provide the expert advise on tracking and trapping the various, the ultimate 'meaningful kills,' no? Especially given he's one of the few people, including the only person on the team (sans a Warden Rook), who'd be able to kill them if either of the eleven gods decided to turn them into archdemons or whatever, no?

Emmrich: He makes major contributions to world lore (Fade, Lighthouse, spirits), and is also necessary for tracking the weak points in the Veil when Solas traps Rook there.

Harding: She's the 'personal cost' of Solas's actions, being both a former associate (and able to guide Rook on Solas's personality) and a dwarf (and able to understand what Solas did to the dwarves).

Lucanis: He's necessary for the team to kill the eleven gods, but I'd say his main contribution is being the Treviso contact - you find out the human costs of the war through his story (if you choose to save Minrathous, and the Treviso gets blighted), or you find out where the gods are hiding (if you choose to save Treviso).

Neve: She's necessary for the team to infiltrate the Venatori gathering and one of two characters capable of controlling the Blight, but I'd say her main contribution is being the Minrathous contact - you find out the political costs of the war through her story (if you choose to save Treviso, and the Venatori seize power in Minrathous), or you find out where the gods are hiding (if you choose to save Minrathous).

Meanwhile, Taash just... hunts dragons, which you can do without her because you're actually surrounded by people who are better at tracking and killing dragons (Davrin, Harding, the Grey Wardens)? Even her personal quest is completely irrelevant to the overall story; she's not showing the cost of the war, or the cost of greed, or grappling with legacy, she's just trapped in her own world, doing her own thing.

my biggest weakness in whump is when character A and B are captured together and one of them is mind controlled to kill the other for the villain as a sacrifice and while the mind controlled character is straddling the other about to kill them, they can’t-no won’t fight back.

bonus points for: character relationship, the villain is involved, the one not fighting can’t stop thinking about how pretty the mind controlled one is, or if the character is broken out of the mind control with an utterance of their name yelled in a last ditch effort to wake them up

i do think it is legitimately very funny whenever someone tries to make the claim that lavabending is inherently a very slow subbending and therefore not good in a fight. specifically when using that argument against Bolin's skill as a bender.

Sure, I feel like in very specific instances with Ghazan that could be a fair argument to make. It takes him a moment to destabilize the Ba Sing Se wall and for him to kick up enough lava to destroy the airbending temple. (to the point I would argue that if Bolin had been versed in lavabending like he was in s4 he would have swept the ground with Ghazan), but in moments where he's actually in a fight his lava is incredibly quick.

Just the lava frisbee on its own is an incredibly quick move

But making that argument with Bolin in particular is absolutely batshit when outside of lavabending he is an incredibly quick fighter. I would say it is one of, if not the, most defining things about his fighting style. He moves very, very quickly and uncharacteristically agile for a earthbender. This is a known thing. Like

I am not the first person to say this but no other earthbender does backflips like he does. And THEN with lavabending he is just as quick if not more so

Bolin since season 1 has had an uncanny knack for bending incredibly fast, and his lavabending is no exception to that rule. It's honestly something that haunts my brain all the time because how quick he is with it low-key breaks the balancing? a little?? Like earthbending was always shown to be very strong but in turn it was slower than other types of bending, but with Bolin that doesn't really seem to be a hangup he has.

Jaiden can recognize when someone else is playing Cucurucho. Just like the other Egg parents can differentiate when it's another admin playing their Egg, or if the Binary Monster is pretending to be their kid...
