#So fuck it

[petit-papillion]

I want Charles to win.

Not when Max has damage. Or Max's car is not performing. Or Max DNFs.

I want Charles to win.

By fighting Max for P1. By having to cleverly plan when to pass Max or whoever else may be in front of him. By driving brilliantly to keep all other drivers behind him.

I want Charles to win.

When everyone is at their best. When there are no circumstances that give him an advantage. No Lap 1 bowling taking out top competitors. No convenient safety car. No team orders to give him the lead.

I want Charles to win.

And get full credit for his outstanding race craft. Kudos for his superior tyre management. Admiration for his smart strategizing.

I want Charles to win.

Not once, but over and over and over again. Setting fastest laps. Getting Grand Slams. Having the fastest pit stop. Beating records set by Lauda, Schumacher, Hamilton, Verstappen.

I want Charles to win.

So I can see him winking as he receives his medal. Fill with pride as he raises his trophy. Watch him fondly look down at his team while the Monegasque anthem plays. Join the Italians as they passionately belt out their anthem.

I want Charles to win.

Until everyone but me is sick of seeing him on that top step. Until no one calls into question his abilities as a top-notch F1 driver. Until every up-and-coming driver aspires to be like him.

Yes, I may be delusional, unrealistic, off my rocker, or in la la land, but I am a Charles-fan, which means...

I want Charles to win

Save You

[turquoisemagpie]

Appreciate the little things.

Not to ignorantly deny all of the big bad things in the world, but to survive them.

We moved on from Buck being the one to meet Kim at the station too fast. Way too fast.

Because hey, what would you do if the dead wife or a doppelgänger dead wife of your best friend-partner-almost love of your life showed up at your place of work with brownies? Would you ignore the date you scheduled in favor of driving over to your best friend’s place to knock urgently on his back door because you’re so afraid that something is happening to him. And you know that something is happening because the doppelgänger of his dead wife just showed up to the firehouse with brownies like it was just another Monday. You think you might have to push him to talk, but it feels more like your best friend was just waiting for someone to see him, and he is just as dumbfounded as you, and maybe even as scared for himself as you are for him. So you tell him that he needs to break it off with the doppelgänger of his dead wife, but you know that it’s more complicated than that, your best friend’s feelings, even though you trust him to do the right thing and end it with her. But you’re still not through the shock of seeing the doppelgänger of your best friend’s dead wife standing in the fire station, heart beating, lungs expanding, and so you think that maybe your best friend is still in shock too, and you don’t want to push too hard at his grief-wound. So you leave it for now, and you don’t come back to it until it blows up in your face, and your best friend’s face, and his son’s face too.

So yeah, I’d say that Buck probably has a lot of regrets too about the Kim situation. He’s a fixer, no matter how hard he tries, and they lost the kid both of them love more than anything over the situation. You can’t tell me that Buck hasn’t been screaming crying throwing up about it since May. Fuck that.

It doesn’t matter that we don’t get characters’ inner thoughts (usually) on this show. Buck met Kim, and he talked about it with Eddie twice. That’s crazy. That’s certifiably insane. It’s been six months. The midseason finale is tomorrow. There is no excuse for Eddie and Christopher still not speaking. This is no excuse for Buck and Eddie still never discussing Kim or at least Chris leaving. These characters are not meant to be this horrifically repressed. It is strange. It is out of character. Kim showed up for about four episodes and disappeared into the ether. I want to know what the hell is going on with this storyline.

Nora: "Just trust your gut!"

Jaune: "...Nora, if I trusted my gut, I would be either dead or in prison."

Nora: "Yeah, but I mean the other gut. The less unnerving one."

i know this is not my normal content and i'm fully taking advantage of the fact that this week the world has its eye on Mexico because of the upcoming GP to let you know that Acapulco has just been hit with one of the strongest hurricanes ever recorded in history and has been utterly devasted by Otis. There is no water, no food,no gas and no electricity (therefore no communications). The airport and highway are destroyed, so any way of help or relief will probably take days to arrive.

The damage is catastrophic.

I would truly appreciate it if you could help me spread the info below and if you are in a position to donate please consider doing so

Red Cross link were you can donate:

An Unfinished Sunny

[bees-honey-death-and-song]

Fuck it, frustrated with the blue demon au comic. So I’m kinda scraping it.

Still gonna be posting about it and stuff. I’m still hyper focused as fuck no doubt.

Here’s the original part two and three in full before I started trying and failing to edit things to my liking

My idea being…

gai was exceptionally well adjusted and sunshine and strong and sweet and a bit ready to die for his precious people.

And I just wondered if he wasn’t as well adjusted as everyone thought.

Main part being, he had an obvious temper growing up and being an outcast does not do wonders for the soul. And then his dad died saving the village from a group of swordsman who were a really big deal and gai was THERE when it happened. Manga lowkey implies he saw it happen from what I remember.(definite possibility I’m wrong.)

So I had a bunch of what if about his character. And THEN I found out he tried to join ANBU to save kakashi and couldn’t be he was told eh didn’t have ‘enough darkness.’ And I wondered what happened if he did.

I wanted to show kakashi lashing out and it having consequences, maybe showing a real sore spot for gai.(which through artistic representation lowkey looks like kakashi genjutsu’ed his ass. He wouldn’t but I thought was funny.)

And the following stuff I make for this will probably just expand on those ideas I had about gai. Just /how far/ does his love and devotion and loyalty go.

So, I've been rewatching old BBTag combo videos, and it made me think:

Jaune would be a rather gimmicky character depending on the version.

Beacon Jaune would probably play like a hybrid between Shoto and Gimmick. Sure, he would have a unique dash cancel, a command grab here and there, maybe an armored DP. But with Ruby command dashing all over, Harriet being so much of a Rushdown that people tend to forget her multiple command grabs, and Adam being a more horrifying version of MVC3 Vergil (somehow), he's not really great.

However, his gimmick would be his cornerstone, leading to what can only be described as "Silly Shit".

Other versions of Jaune might rely less on gimmicks and do their thing (Rusted Knight is just SamSho Warden in my mind), but with small nods to it.

Aka: Jaune in a proper RWBY fighting game is just Dan Hibiki, but not a dick.

This is for @topgunalternateuniverse bingo

This one was Hanahaki

The petals are white chrysanthemums because I love them.

There is a second piece I'll paint at a later date (it's sadder imo)
