#MASTER GOING STRONG

[sea-jello]

OKAY LISTEN TO ME morro said the departed souls gained the chance to move on AFTER the merge right. which means he started doing this guiding protecting redemption business after the merge. idk when he made his mind up about it but regardless all he could do was sit there until AFTER the merge, after the spectral lands became a thing and he found like his purpose or whatever. now you know what was also after the merge. euphrasia finding out about her control over the wind

this may be a stretch since i dont think we're ever told how these things manifest and we dont see it in DOTD, but do you think when morro finally found a way to atone for his past mistakes, he CHOSE to let go of the wind? do you think morro, who managed to hold onto his power even after death, made the decision to move on and give up essentially what made him who he was before so he could start over as the guardian of the spectral lands

“Mu Qing is too logical for his own good” is such a real problem that he deals with and as tragic as it makes his life I also think it’s really funny when someone is accusing him of something and instead of telling them to shut up or leave him alone the first thing he does is pull out the 95 fucking theses detailing every single thing wrong with their argument WITH historical evidence and additional considerations from scholarly psychology articles, MLA format works cited and completely annotated. It could use an editor and some bias correction, but he actually makes a pretty good point. anyways tgcf ace attorney au when

it took me finally watching classic who to get properly exited about the scene at the end of death in heaven where the Brigadier as a cyberman saves Kate from falling out the plane.

when I first watched it I didn't really know who the brigadier was so I didn't really care and now I actually jumped out of my seat and screamed I was so happy

[hide-your-bugs-away]

Thank you for the tag @unchaineddaisychain !! Despite knowing full-well the dangers that will befall the world, if I'm given a chance to speak. 👀

Nicknames?

Flygonnie, Flygon, Commie (just for my irls, please)

Real name?

Connie

Zodiac?

Cancer (I am an emotional wreck)

Favorite artists?

These weird guys called the... Animals? Or something like that? And their keyboardist... I think his name is Alan Price? Sounds pretty gay. Yeah, I'm normal about them...

Very abridged list of other folks I like: Donovan, Herman's Hermits, Georgie Fame, the Jeff Beck Group, Dusty Springfield, Lulu, the Jimi Hendrix Experience, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the Kinks, Peter and Gordon, Paul Revere and the Raiders, a whole bunch of Motown (especially the Supremes and Stevie Wonder), Facebook-Wine-Aunt-Record-Producer Mickie Most.

Favorite sports team?

...what is sports?

Other blogs:

@yache-berries - my "main" blog where I post Pokémon and gaming-related stuff, along with occasional art, with some 60s rock also interspersed in there because I don't have much in the world besides my favorite things.

@the-alan-price-combo - my semi-organized-but-not-really-that-organized Animals art/gif blog. I end up reblogging most of it here anyway, but if you want my Normalcy About The Animals all in one place, it's there! I also have a 37,000-word essay about Alan Price and Eric Burdon pinned there if you want a biased and abridged and gay look at Animal-history. 😔

Do you get asks?

Basically none, but that's what happens when one of your special interests is a niche and barely-researched blues-rock band that lasted about three years and only eight people care about. I'm okay with that, I'm here to archive and make silly art and shout into my gay little void.

How many blogs do you follow?

176

Tumblr crushes?

None because I'm shy and don't talk to many people anymore 😔

Lucky number:

I am not lucky in the slightest but 27 is a number I really like... also 330.

What are you wearing right now?

A thinly-veiled advertisement for Pepsi-Cola in the form of a shirt where Alan Price has his elbow resting on Eric Burdon's thigh, plaid sweatpants, and Mickie Most (Eevee) socks

Dream vacation?

Funny, because I've already done it... but I'd love to see Alan Price in Barnes, London whenever I'm able to again. I typically don't like traveling much, but London was absolutely beautiful and just being in the vicinity of so much of the history and music I adore is incredibly meaningful to me. Alan Price in the same city as me... wow. The two days I saw him in concert were the two best days of my life.

Dream?

Have a content life making art of my favorite things during free time after work (art-related or otherwise). While also continuing to improve my art and letting it speak for me, drawing attention to the underrated and subtle parts of my favorite subjects (especially history, especially music history, especially you-know-who). I'm not kidding when I say that anytime someone tells me they started listening to the Animals or Alan because of my art, they're making this dream of mine come true.

Dream car?

None, because I'm absolutely terrified of driving (I do it anyway so I can go to my job and save money to see Alan Price)

Favorite food?

SPAGHETTI... (preferably no meat sauce though)

Drink of choice?

Dr Pepper is one of my personality traits. I do really like tap water a whole lot as well, and root beer. Cherry Coke is my go-to when the establishment does not have any Dr Pepper.

Instruments?

I used to play xylophone/auxiliary percussion in high school marching band and a percussion ensemble, but I've gotten way more shy as I've gotten older and don't like playing instruments anymore. 😔

Languages?

English

Celebrity crushes?

None (aroace 😔🤙)

Random fact:

My first shiny Pokémon was a 'G' Unown caught in Pokémon Pearl back in 2008 and I STILL haven't given it a nickname.... It needs one badly... funny little blue letter. I think I'll name it Geoff. I'm going to use it to finally beat Legends: Arceus (accompanied by my Eevee team named after Animals) 🙏

(That sentient psychic glyph can LEGALLY DRIVE NOW!!!!)

Times Tom and Jerry kiss list [as of 2024]:

Total of 40

Pick your era:

Classics (1940-1967) 21

The Tom and Jerry show (2014) 9

Misc (movies, comics, and the other series that had only small amounts of kisses) 10

You can also check under the "read more" on this post for the full list or just look under tag "Tom and Jerry Kiss List"

Some fun facts, Reasoning and the Grand List below the readmore!

*If I missed one please provide the name of the episode and year/what series it would be in so I can find it and add it. Does not count hugging, nuzzling, blowing kisses, licking or foreheads knocking together [unless there is a kiss sound effect]. Does not count Tom or Jerry kissing anyone else [ie. Tom kissing Toodles]. Only counts instances of kisses, so if Jerry kisses Tom 7 times in the same scene, it only counts as 1 kiss. *Last updated: May 23rd, 2025

Fun facts:

The era with the most kisses is Hanna-Barbera with 16, followed by The Tom and Jerry Show (2014) with 9 and Chuck Jones with 4.

Tom initiated the most kisses by 8! Tom initiated 23 times and Jerry 15, with 2 kisses listed under other/undetermined*

Counting only classics, Tom initiated 14 times and Jerry 7 times.

Counting everything but classics, Tom initiated 9 times and Jerry initiated 8 times. Tom sure is more affectionate than he first appears!

If counting all the comics as one group, Tom and Jerry are tied with two kisses initiated each!

There is little to no overlap in their reasoning for kissing. The only overlap is in the accidental category.

The only Tom and Jerry movie with a kiss between them [as of 2023] is the Tom and Jerry Movie (2021).

Their first kiss is in the third short released, The Night Before Christmas (1941)

Their latest kiss is in Tom and Jerry in New York, episode Dream Team. Released July 1st, 2021

Kisses by era counter:

Hanna-Barbera: 16

Tom and Jerry Show (2014): 9

Chuck Jones: 4

Tom and Jerry Comics: 4

Tom and Jerry Tales: 2

Eras with 1 Kiss:

Tom:

Thanks/Please/Sorry: 10

Friend Proof: 7

Personality Change: 3

Tom's reasons with 1 kiss:

In Love with different character [Springtime for Thomas (1946)]

Accident [Guilded Mouse Ille (1967). First kiss was accident, so counted under accidental.]

Jerry:

Taunt: 5

Glad you are back/Glad I am back: 3

In Love: 2 [The Brothers carry the Mouse (1965) and TJ Show (2014)'s Bottled Up Emotions]

Jerry's reasons with 1 kiss:

Distraction [The Night before Christmas. Initiates by holding mistletoe and inviting Tom to kiss him]

Accident [Tom and Jerry Show (2014) Kiss and Makeup. Throws himself between Tom and Toodles to save Tom. Accidentally gets kiss on cheek from both.]

Trying to convince Tom to be a father figure [M.G.M's Tom and Jerry's Winter Fun Issue 7, Pussycat Papa]

Other category is for stuff that I genuinely struggled to find/write reason for OR it's kinda unclear what/who it should count for. For instance, in the Tom and Jerry show (2014) episode Return to Sender, they were pushed together by a wizard and forced to kiss. Other is not counted under either Tom and Jerry and so is not in the counter.

[quietwingsinthesky]

the thing about the master is all three showrunners have gone No! I’m doing MY THING with them! shut up! i don’t care about your headcanons!!! and im obsessed with continuity of their motivations and i’ll line this whole goddamn corkboard with string to force them to make sense.

[rowanthestrange]

I think it would be fitting with The Themes if when Missy referred to “her daughter” that one time, the daughter in question is indeed the Doctor’s, and because of all the emotional turmoil surrounding that he just dissociated that fact straight out of his mind.

[raddestrose]

Noooooo

He recognized him cause he’s the only other person who knows that song

[spicysaucesteaks]

listened to torchwood: disco. everything hurts. ianto is such a good character bro. i need to put him inside a microwave and watch him spin. i need to put him in bubblewrap and study him. the emotions this man goes through are insane - but that's why he's my pookie. no character can be declared pookie before they see the horrors

[raytm]

should i ??? buy p4 golden on steam ???? or should i watch a playthrough ???

[xamaxenta]

LMAO ok that's super funny actually. So Ace probably looks between his servant and the mage Sabo like clearly knowing which he prefers. Did not ask for some fragile glass twig of a guy.

But the flip side is interesting now. Master Ace being from a powerful mage bloodline and summoning this incredible hero. If master Sabo hangs off of his servant all the time and they're clearly involved THEN it would be fun to think how he views the mortal, mage Ace that is (maybe) his better. Do you think in his mind he lucked out with a two-for-one?? Do you think if he asked them to tag-team him, they would???

:3c i forgot to mention despite being a waif, master Sabo folds his servant hes got that lancer on his back begging (This is important)

Also forgot to mention that lancer Ace is a loserdog puppy boy with shit luck whos lost countless times and countless masters and more wars than he can count so when this nerdy skinty thing of a mage summons him hes. Really not that impressed and resigns himself to another bad luck of the draw but Sabos a fighter and often lancer has to physically prevent his little master from throwing hands 😭 hence the whole picking him up bodily and holding him one armed whilst he fights bc aesthetically hot but also its a flex

He totally lucked out with both his servant and encountering the mage Ace if theyre anything alike (which they are and which they both probably would loathe) theyd yeah two for one but sabers a package deal hes slinking in no matter what

[noirandchocolate]

I gotta get back into my new Age of Calamity file (been knitting and playing our second Tears file all the time), 'cause I am still soooo far away from unlocking Kohga and I need to get himmmm again. I mean I could just go in my old file and have him kill some vicious lynels to get my fix or something but. No I want to rebuild My Best Guy and see if I can possibly make him even more Best.

But. I mean.

That would be pretty hard.

(I accept the challenge but I gotta be patient and get through the 'let's destroy the Yiga Clan woohoo!' parts first astfglaslkfjsldfkj. I mean not that I hate those missions, I love fighting Sooga and Kohga as I have said before, and I adore the cutscenes involving them. But I wanna play as them even more, they're just so fun. Also I got sosososo lucky with Kohga's weapon drops last time so hopefully I will again this time too so I can make him an even better Demon Carver. If that's even. Possible. I will do my best! Glory to Master Kohga etcetc!)

[ellynneversweet]

I can’t believe I forgot that Sabriel and Touchstone escaped Ancelstierre via a plane (borrowed very much without permission) piloted by a teenager introduced holding a machine gun while she womaned the checkpoint of her school (‘for young ladies of quality’).

I love Felicity so much.
