#That being said she is a character I love to hate

[kxsagi]

hihii can i req reader that is like academically smart but is also very naive at the same time?? reader would probably fall for the most obvious clickbait or something feel free to do with any bllk characters (especially sae 💋💋) thank youu but also feel free to ignore this if you don't want it

“𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐦”

a/n: i read rage bait instead of click bait after writing everything, but decided to keep it since it’s still fitting 😭

ft. isagi yoichi, itoshi rin, kaiser michael, itoshi sae, shidou ryusei, nagi seishiro, mikage reo, karasu tabito

isagi yoichi

“you’re literally smarter than me, so why are you fighting with an anime profile picture?” 

you’re writing a full essay in the comments under a rage bait post that says “math is fake and only lazy people like numbers.” 

“love. they want you to argue. that’s the whole point. it’s bait.” 

you, while typing aggressively: “it’s the principle.” 

isagi literally has to pry the phone out of your hands. 

“they’re trolling. why are you citing academic sources in a thread about flat earth?” 

alternates between being impressed and deeply concerned. 

“you’re so smart it’s scary. and yet, you just fell for a post that said ‘gravity is a scam made by the big ladder.’” 

will still throw slurs under his fake account at anyone that tries to come after you. 

itoshi rin

“get off the internet. log off. i’m blocking you from twitter.” 

you: reading a post that says “the mitochondria isn’t real.” 

also you: seeing red. 

he watches you scroll past rage bait like, “no... don't take the bait... dammit.” 

“you know better. you literally know better.” 

gets mad with you but refuses to engage. 

he’s just staring at you spiraling over a troll who said “logic is fake” and muttering, “wtf is wrong with this generation.” 

turns off your wifi like a concerned parent. 

“you’re not arguing with someone named @cattboysupreme69. go read a book.” 

kaiser michael

“you’re falling for rage bait again, huh? i love this dumb little hobby of yours.” 

finds it hilarious that you get so fired up over random garbage takes. 

literally records you pacing and ranting about how “emotions are valid sources of decision making, actually.” 

“schatz, you’re a valedictorian. why are you beefing with someone who said ‘plants don’t have feelings so vegans are evil��?” 

fully encourages it for fun. 

“no, no, quote them. let’s go viral.” 

brags to his teammates like, “my girl’s a genius and also beefing with half of conspiracy tik tok. goals.” 

secretly reports every troll you argue with behind the scenes. he’s protective in a petty, passive-aggressive way. 

itoshi sae

“this is why i hate people. and also why you shouldn’t be online unsupervised.” 

you fell into a rage trap that said “women don’t belong in STEM.” 

sae, watching you rage-type a dissertation just said, “block them and move on.” 

you: “no. they need to be educated.” 

he takes your phone. 

“they don’t. they have 12 followers and use comic sans unironically.” 

quietly annoyed but impressed that you always come with facts. 

lowkey reads your arguments later and thinks, “damn. my girl snapped.” 

would absolutely start threatening people if they get too bold with you. 

“she might be arguing like it’s a thesis defense, but if any of you make her cry, i’m breaking your nose.” 

shidou ryusei

“babe, you’re smart as hell, but you’re also fighting with rage bait like it personally insulted your dog.” 

thinks it’s hilarious. 

“they said books are just dead trees. you really gonna let that slide?” 

you: frothing with rage “i will not let that slide.” 

shidou: eating popcorn and hyping you up “go off, professor! educate their ass!” 

he will 100% jump in and start trolling with you. 

“yo, babe, say something about their spelling. that always pisses ‘em off.” 

gives you an award when you get someone to delete their comment. 

“queen behavior. love that for you.” 

nagi seishiro

“can we not. like ever. please.” 

the most done every time you scream: “WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE SUN ISN’T A STAR AND IT’S A PLANET?!” 

he just wants to play games, not watch you get into a 14-comment back-and-forth with a dude named @trumpfan420. 

“you’re literally a genius. why are you arguing with people who think australia doesn’t exist?” 

lies on your lap and sighs dramatically. 

“you’re lucky you’re cute when you’re mad.” 

secretly proud of how well you school people, though. 

once tried to help you argue but got bored after one sentence. 

“i told them ‘L’ and left.” 

mikage reo

“you’re academically brilliant. and also very online. it’s like watching an intellectual gladiator fight trolls.” 

every time he hears “REO. THEY SAID SHAKESPEARE WAS MID.” he already knows what’s happening. 

you’re pacing around the house, typing furiously, quoting sonnets and throwing in stats. 

“you’re smarter than the entire room but still letting a 14-year-old with a controversial hot take ruin your night.” 

he makes tea and sits beside you while you rage. 

“need a bibliography link, baby?” 

lowkey brags to others: “yeah my girl just flamed a whole subreddit with APA formatting.” 

you’re his little chaos genius and he loves it. 

“you’re going to be a nobel prize winner and twitter’s most feared debater at the same time.” 

karasu tabito

“you’re out here fighting for your life against rage bait and i’m living for it.” 

watches you with popcorn like it’s live TV. 

“ohhh here they go. someone said philosophy is just overpriced poetry. let’s gooo.” 

he fully instigates sometimes. 

“babe, someone said gravity isn’t real. thoughts?” 

you start ranting, and he just grins like an agent of chaos. 

“why are you like this?” 

“why are you like this?” 

says he’ll block the trolls for you. ends up ratioing them with memes instead. 

y’all are the duo that trolls the trolls and then drops a full essay for fun. 

if anyone dares say “women can’t argue,” karasu just goes, “you sure about that?” and lets you annihilate them in 5k characters.

[imnez-daydreams]

yeah you wish that i was yours (so do i)

pairing : andrew “pope” cody x reader

warnings : fighting, manhandling, choking, blood, licking of said blood, injury, jealousy, pope makes j watch him and reader, pope calls reader “kid”, “baby” n "my girl".

summary : what happens when you keep pushing pope to play fight with you. (except they are both also yearning idiots in love).

w/c : 2.6k words (yes i may have gotten carried away)

a/n : im super² sick but i could. not. get my ask and this thought from @erwinsvow out of my head so i decided to try and churn my inspiration from lovely shea into this fic. i just finished s1 and this is my first time writing pope so i hope i got his character okay :”)). apologies if this isn't the best work, i'm literally curled up and still burning up as i'm writing this booo. dividers are credited to @saradika-graphics. hope you enjoy !! do like, comment or reblog (or send hot soup) if you did <33

The first strike is the day when Pope gets out of prison. 

You’re standing dumbstruck with your bought meal still in hand when you spot him sitting in the middle of the couch. He’s so … real this time. You must look like an idiot to the rest of the family, still in shock. (Maybe Pope would let you in on this secret later on in your relationship, but when he saw you again, he felt that you were as beautiful as the day he lost you). 

Pope’s eyes travel down your frame, soaking in every detail of you, memorising you as if he didn't have every pixel of every picture you mailed him ingrained in the hardwires of his brain. When his eyes flit back up to meet yours, you feel something start to unlock behind those walls. 

Your eye twitches when you notice how close Smurf is next to him. You hate how she’s already sunken her venomous claws back into Pope, probably starting to scheme how she can puppeteer him again. You want to save Pope, get him away from the void that sinks its teeth in you and never leaves, not entirely, even when you think you’re free. So you do the thing all Cody’s are good at, starting a fight.

“Move, you’re in my spot.” You try to keep your voice even as possible, as if seeing Pope in person after all these years didn’t sweep the rug out from under your feet.

“Hey lay off, Pope’s only been back a couple hours. And since when is that spot y-” You cut off Baz by squeezing in the free space that separates Pope from the end of the couch.

You make yourself comfortable, well as comfortable as you can being so close to Pope again, and place your feet in his lap (despite having more than enough space). Pope glances down at how you've made yourself at home in his lap, then at you. You raise an eyebrow, trying to seem unbothered and rest your side against the back of the couch. 

The family starts talking about their business again, making you begin to lose interest. Just as your eyelids start to drop though, you catch Smurf smoothing her hand over Pope’s curls. Something stirs in you. The part of your brain that makes you do stupid things.

You kick your foot in Pope’s lap, wanting to annoy him. (Wanting him to pay attention to you instead). It works slightly, with him gripping your ankle. But he’s still looking forward. Staring out into space, shielded, guarded, as if the two of you didn't share secrets as kids. As if he wasn't your guard dog the moment he laid eyes on your trembling frame, when Smurf introduced you to the family shortly after she found Catherine. It’s not enough. So you put on a show. Making crude jokes, poking and prodding at him, laying on the snarky attitude.

Pope thinks this is unlike you, unlike his childhood sweetheart friend. He puts together that you must want something, not him obviously but maybe just some attention. Pope doesn't mean to be that aggressive, a sentiment he reserves only for you. But this new kid is unnerving him. It unsettles him, how J quietly laughs at your bad attempts of mean jokes, how his eyes occasionally roam over you. It's why he's been staring straight instead of at you. If Pope gets lost in the sight of you, he wouldn't be able to stand guard. Except J’s gaze dips down, making Pope follow his eyeline. Realising the kid has the nerve to travel his eyes down to the small bit of exposed skin, when your kicking of him makes your shirt ride up.

Pope’s jaw clenches and you think you've finally gotten to him. But he pounces on you so fast that you almost get whiplash.

What the fuck?

Pope is hovering over you, your wrists pinned by one hand, his knees spreading your legs apart to accommodate his frame. You feel his free hand sliding down the front of your shirt, but your confusion is quickly brushed off when Baz cuts in,

“Fuckin’ cut it out you two! I don’t need another headache right now.” 

That signature heavy stare remains on you for a couple more seconds, almost like Pope is trying to decipher you. Then, he grunts and lets go of your hands, moving off the couch completely. 

The second strike is when you both get into a screaming match. Well, more like you’re shouting and Pope is Pope still. The job had gone wrong and he had refused to accept your care until you had finished stitching up Deran’s bullet wound. Even though Pope was very visibly concussed and in pain. The whole time you attended to Deran, you kept stealing glances at Pope, just to make sure he was still alive and kicking (it's what you tell yourself), only to find him already staring straight at you. Keeping your tongue tied, you busied yourself with patching up the boys. Until they all went off, leaving you and Pope alone. Giving you the empty space to berate Pope for his lack of self-importance when it comes to his family. 

“Drop it, kid.” Pope grumbles out, passing by you to take a drink from the fridge.

“No, no. You’re not doing to me (to yourself).” You respond, putting all your might into pushing his back that's facing you.

Pope feels the force from your shove, his strong arm slamming against the cool fridge door to brace himself. His shoulders are hunched. His head hung low. You can feel the tension brewing inside of him. That barely contained anger simmering beneath the surface. He straightens up when he swivels around, dark eyes meeting yours. 

“I don't think you really want to play this game with me kid.” Pope stalks towards you, his footsteps not making a sound.

You scoff, meeting him halfway and getting in his face.

“Why? Afraid you’ll lose? Think y-” You don't get to finish your sentence because Pope’s hand wraps around your throat.

It’s light, not enough to constrict your airflow too much. He’s holding back again. You hate it. You hate him. That’s a lie you repeat to yourself when Pope slams your back to the wall. You despise him because even now in his anger, he still places his free hand behind your skull. Cushioning your pretty little head leaving your back to feel most of the ache. But you want more. More pain that only Pope can give to you. (Or maybe you want Pope to give his pain to you).

Pope tilts his head down to make sure you’re looking right at him. Closing the gap between you two, he whispers against your lips,

“If you play that game with me kid, the only way it ends is with you face down on my bed. I won't stop giving it to you, even if you're begging so sweetly. You want that huh? You want me?” Pope tightens his hold on your throat, but you can sense the vulnerability spilling out at the last sentence.  

“Say, I’m sorry Andrew, c’mon kid.” Pope breaks eye contact to give you this command, whispering in your ear.

“I’m s-sorry … Andrew.” You manage to gasp out.

Satisfied, Pope softens his hold on you, rubbing the sensitive skin on your neck. He plants a soft kiss at the top of your head, so gentle you almost think you imagined it.

“Good. There’s my baby again.”

The last strike is when most of the family is lounging by the pool.

You can feel Pope staring at you.

Sometimes you think he stares harder when he thinks you aren't looking. Smurf’s out somewhere on a task so all the brothers are playing their usual game in the pool, wrestling and fighting over the ball. You’re basking in the sun, leaning sideways on your elbow by the side of the pool. Frowning when you keep noticing Pope playing rough with J. He doesn't deserve that. What better way to lessen that burden on him by putting it on yourself right? (Of course that's the only reason why, not to stop Pope from feeling outshined by a new arrival, totally not). You splash water at Pope, complaining how you're so bored, stating confidently that you could score against him.

“Alright’ kid, c’mon show me what you got then yeah?” Pope relents as he enters the pool again.

You feel giddy with excitement even though you know he's just doing this to get you to shut up. 

…

Pope is barely tightening his hold on you from behind, giving you a fair chance to back out and win easily. But you don't want that. You want Pope to get aggressive with you, put his face all up in yours, make you submit to him. Why can't he just give you what you want? Why is he always so gentle with you? You know why deep down, but that doesn’t stop your emotions from getting the better of you.

You swing your arm back, decking Pope with your elbow. The blow makes him release you completely, and you swim up, up, up and finally breathe when your face exits the water. Easily scoring and celebrating when you climb out the pool, meeting J’s small grin and bumping shoulders with him. You nearly make his shot topple over.

“How about that huh?” You boast despite knowing you played dirty, but your cocky smile falls when J’s expression changes before he downs the shot.

You frown, turning back. Oh, shit. Pope’s emerged from the pool too, but his nose is dripping an obscene amount of blood. It trickles down his chin, his chest and stomach.

“Fuck, I’m so sorry Pope. You okay? Here come on, I’ll get you cleaned up”. Running over to Pope, reaching for his arms to lead him back into the house.

But his hand catches you first. 

One hand bounding both of your wrists.

“You can clean me up here just fine, kid.” Pope says so calmly, not even a little bothered about the blood gushing out and down.

‘Yeah okay, let me just get the first aid kit alright?” 

“Kid.” Pope pulls you closer by your hands and walks you backwards.

“I said you can do it here. You’ve had such a mouth on you lately baby, let’s put it to good use yeah?”

Oh, fuck he can’t just say things like that.

The back of your legs hits a lounge chair. The one beside where J’s sitting on, eyes darting between the two of you.

“I’ll get out of your wa-”

“No. You're staying there.” Pope’s tone leaves no room for arguing, guarded eyes locking onto J.

Though when Pope looks back at you, his gaze softens the tiniest bit. Unnoticeable to anyone else, but not to you.

“Pope I- I’m really sorry oka-”

“Shhh, it’s okay kid. M’not mad.” Pope brushes your back with his free hand as he maneuvers the two of you on the empty seat, you atop his lap.

“Just want you to take care of me.” Pope whispers into your ear, private from J.

You furrow your brows at his words.

Oh.

Now you understand. 

Of course Pope would see through you, he’s always seen you. The only one who had.

Pope reels back, just enough to meet your eyes with his intense gaze. An unspoken connection. One asking if you want to stop, keep your bond a sacred secret. The other responding to let them see, see who I belong to, that I belong to you. 

The red string that ties the both of you coils protectively around your shared hearts. A beat passes, and you feel the red string relaxing.

Pope lets your hands go as he leans back into the seat, letting you crawl slightly back. You brace your arms, and lean down. The taste of copper fills your senses as you slowly drag your tongue up Pope’s abs. He shudders beneath your contact, not used to a caring touch. You make your way up to his chest, noticing his erratic breathing. Finally, you make it to Pope’s face, where most of the blood is smeared all over from his initial attempt of cleaning it off. 

You meet Pope’s eyes. He’s already watching you. He’s  always watching you. 

Cradling his jaw with your hand, you scoop up the remaining scattered blood on your thumb. You bring your finger past your lips, not breaking eye contact with Pope.

He doesn't blink. 

He hasn't taken his eyes off of you, not since he caught the glimpse of you being all close to J.

In a blink, Pope smashes your lips together, hand pushing at the back of your neck, strong arm wrapping possessively around your waist. He shoves his tongue past your lips, swallowing up your sweet moans and tasting his own blood. 

It's intoxicating. He’s intoxicating. 

All you can sense is his bruising grip on you, the metallic taste of his blood, his heavy breathing.

The big splashes of water as the other brothers fight in the pool, the overlapping shouts and quarreling, the clinking of shot glasses. None of that even registers in your mind.

All you can think and feel is Pope. Him, him, only him.

When you both slowly part for air, Pope rests his forehead against yours. Still breathing heavily, his hungry eyes dart down to the red string of saliva connecting from your lips to his. 

“Hey! If you two are done being fuckin’ freaks, we could really use Pope and J back in the game!” Baz’s voice cuts through the intimate moment.

“Dude c’mon they were just getting to the good part.” Craig butts in and you have to resist rolling your eyes as you scoot away from Pope.

“Shows over. You boys have fun, but I’m gonna take my girl inside.” Pope announces much to their disappointment, you can already hear them arguing over how to settle the remaining rounds.

“That goes for you too, you can go now.” He deadpans to J, who if you didn't know any better, was tomato red all over from the hot sun.

“Oh y-yeah, of course.” J stutters out as he gets up and away from the two of you.

You barely contain your amusement as you turn back to Pope.

“You didn't have to do that, you know.” You mutter as you stand up from the edge of the seat, reaching out your hand to him.

“He kept looking and smiling at you, as if you didn't already belong to me.” Pope raises himself, slowly holding your soft hand in his. 

You grin, knowing he knows that he's dodging your actual question. No words are needed, not when the shared eye contact speaks for the two of you.

You didn't have to let me take care of you in front of an audience.

I know, but I wanted you to. Wanted them to see, see who I belonged to.

Pope hesitantly interlocks his hand with yours, making you crack a smile. Him being oh so shy as if he didn't just have his tongue down your throat a moment ago.

“Thank you.” You whisper as you lead him back into the house.

Pope doesn't respond, just keeps burning his eyes into your frame. You don’t elaborate either, choosing to walk in silence. But it's not an uncomfortable silence, no. Not when your intrinsic bond is weaved beyond words. A whole chapter said with just his eyes meeting yours. 

Thank you for letting me take care of you.

Thank you for letting me love you, in our own messed way.

The understanding flows through the red string connecting your hearts.

a/n : rly scared that i got his characterisation off so im sorry if it is :((.

So my previous post was about why people compare their real life relationships to these characters. I love the dialogue in the comments section but one

How do you people understand character arch and building? If being a HIGH LORD basically a ruler of a region not the highest status? They being WEALTHY is part of their character build and actually part of the conversations.

I said where are these girlies exes because they must be rich too so I’d take that and be in a manor locked up. Because I am not just comparing their attitudes.

Many of us have also said they’d like to live at the manor so we can read all day and give tam another room for his outburst lol now:

• Rhysand won’t have been able to crown feyre is he didn’t have a penny to his name.

• feyre won’t have chosen him back either. Going back into poverty let’s be real

• feyre has wealth now to not be bothered and empathetic to the plight of her husbands mothers people.

• she is wealthy now that she doesn’t have to hunt for food or cook or do laundry.

•she has a mansion and a studio now.

• she’s wealthy enough to be working and have a baby when many women don’t have help, bills and are only given two months maternity leave.

• feyres love for Tamlin also grew when he had the ability to love her for his love to also change the lives of HER FAMILY. Mind you not many men would’ve done that.

• which girl here will go and fetch her ring because her mother in law ordained it before her death?

• or wear clothing her mother in law left?

Let us stop only comparing JUST emotional things because it’s the easiest to grasp. If you find love and you are poor 9times out of 10 That relationship will fail. Love will not feed you. It will not clothe you.

These fictional men 90% of them are never broke. They are able to fulfill all the needs of the women they are with because they are royalty or something of that sort. I said this before Elain ain’t gonna go back to no struggle love because she’s Lucien’s mate? He has no land or title to his name and back in the human lands eating bland food. And I ain’t mad at her either. 🤣

When I compare characters I don’t pick and choose the parts I want to see and this is why the fandom is divided. No one wants to admit Rhys is very very much as flawed as Tamlin. They are fictional fantastical characters. We all crave that love and understanding we see but we will all never get everything. My fiancé is no Tamlin. He hates reading and calls me crazy for loving Tamlin. Do u compare them? Hell no… tamlin can shapeshift he can’t 🤣 if he could lord have mercy.

Realistically:

• you will love him until he cannot provide what you are use to. It’s normal. No one decides they want to struggle in life. You are the one who chooses your own partner and if you fell for a Tamlin and go in for a Rhys says a lot about you and your mental state of comparing characters we all love and adore.

•many real life actors are so good yet in reality they are mean a cruel to their own staff.

• some people can’t even afford therapy. The whole world isn’t as developed. They don’t even know what therapy is. Feyre was given ample including Rhys D 😂

• some have all the wealth and many women will stay without love to give their kids something better or themselves.

A man’s glory a woman can inherit but never the other way around. Feyre has inherited Rhys crown when she could’ve had the curse breaker because Rhys is rich and has that title.

Don’t come at me making it seem that you have said something clever. There’s always other opinions outside what you think it’s right in your own mind.

[hadleysmis]

Omg yayy games!! I'm a wordy person, so I'm going to explain my choices rahh

Long post.

Bob is the best protagonist: Technically I think what makes the storylines so great is how all the Belcher family interact with one another. I like many different storylines regardless on who the protagonist is, so I just flipped a (multiple sided) coin and picked Bob.

Tina is the most beloved character: I love Tina, and she's long been my favourite character! I love her storylines and I love her personality. I love her interests and I love her anxiety. I also love that many lessons she learns is confidence.

Bob is the most attractive character: Well, I mean, it's Bob. So he's gotta be the most attractive charcater.

Logan is the most overrated character: It might be because I didn't have much of a rowdy childhood and was taught respect and honour in the Asian way, but man I hate Logan lmao He's a wonderful opposite for Louise to have beef with, but because I can't relate to him at all, I wouldn't miss him at all if he was completely written out (not that he would be, I think he's quite popular).

Logan is a character I think is justified in his popularity, but personally I really don't like him and find his storylines (apart from his first) to be boring or frustrating.

Most iconic character is Marshmallow: I have done ranking about which characters were my favourite before (on Instagram), and I decided on Tina, Bob, then Marshmallow, and this was before we had a Marshmallow episode in the newest season.

I love her character so much and I'm so, so happy that they put effort into her character and right the wrongs that they did in representing trans characters in Season 1 rather than abandoning the character altogether.

I absolutely love how much respect Bob has for Marshmallow and how many people respect her. I think, once again, I like characters a lot based on their interactions and affections for one another. I think me liking Marshmallow so much is a prime example of that.

If she was in more storylines, she would be higher than Bob, probably. Sorry.

Most baby character is Gene: I love how his family treats him, and although I think Gene's storylines are either hits or misses, when they are hits, it hits.

I just watched the Christmas record episode for Gene, and I adore the complexities (and autism) they've put for the character. He understands so much of the world than on the surface.

Most tragic character is Zeke: He's a troublesome kid who regulates his emotions through wrestling. He often compliments people loudly, and I think in another life, he would've been such a happy ball of sunshine that everyone immediately loves and feels warm from hanging out with him.

He still retains that characteristics, but I think it would've been more conventional if he had a normal childhood. I'm glad that he's got to make deep connections with other characters, and I'm always so happy to hear more episodes centring around him.

Most boring character is Gayle: I'm bored with her storylines. As they are often paired with Linda, I happen to enjoy some of them as Linda makes it worth watching, but in general, Gayle's storylines are often very boring for me.

My favourite ship is Linda/Bob: That's only because I don't really ship anyone with anyone as of now apart from these lovely two. I can't really imagine anyone topping these two.

The most gay character is Bob: I did think about either putting Gene, Marshmallow, or Bob here, but none of them fit the label 'gay' per say, but more of the broader term for it.

I think for Gene, he's more likely trans than he is necessarily gay, and either way he's definitely gender non-conforming. Marshmallow is straight up trans but I don't recall her being in a relationship with anybody.

Bob was the closest to the label gay as he's bisexual. It's a fact in my head and it feels like it's too solid of an interpretation to be called a headcanon. My reaction to his bi scenes: 'I saw gay, so I said gay. That ain't bullying. That's an astute observation.'

The funniest character is Tina: I'll never forget the hilarity of Season 1 Tina. I think a lot of her worries, anxiety, drama, interests, and hobbies are all very entertaining to watch and laugh with.

Whenever she messes with her hair, it's so funny. Whenever she tries to flirt with her monotone, soft voice gets me every time, it's so funny.

Trash: Hugo. I was thinking about saying the Fischoeders (I do enjoy them) or Jimmy Pesto (thank god there's less of him), but each of those alternatives had empathetic lighting or fun storylines. I couldn't think of one for Hugo, so ultimately it's gotta be him for the most trash character.

The most underrated character is Nat: I'm not kidding when I say this, but Nat is my favourite side character and I love it whenever she enters the screen. I just love her stories and how she gets along with the Belcher children, too! She's in my top five favourite character list, most likely placing herself at the fourth place. I love her.

The best antagonists are the Fischoeders: I don't mind which one of them it is, because I think they all bring new antagonist spice to the story. I do like Felix the least, but I don't actively dislike him. To be fair, I barely actively dislike any characters in Bob's burgers apart from the ones I've stated here.

I like how the more evil they get, the more fun they bring. They're just there to continuously cause chaos and they end up profiting off from it; and what makes this entertaining for me is that they are presented as pathetic or immoral, rightfully. And the viewers can easily see it like that. I'm... A simple man, huh?

The nuttiest character is Lousie: Ahh, the battle between Louise and her best friend nemesis Millie... I had to choose Louise at the end of the day because we just get to know about her way more than Millie.

Best side character is Teddy: There are so many side characters that I love, but Teddy remains to be the most iconic.

The most fightable character is Gayle: I'm sorry... I would never hit her in real life, but she grates me so.

The character that I'm most optimistic for future storylines is Sam: I really, really liked his character introduction, and from his very rare appearances in storylines afterwards makes me super enthusiastic for his character.

Rarely do characters added in after double digit number of seasons bring enthusiasm for me about the future storylines, but Sam is gleefully the exception.

Also not because of Asian solidarity... But woo! For that. I love Asian characters done right and treated well by the writers.

Wonderful character overall, too. I'm excited in how he'll interact with Tina, and maybe the rest of the Belcher kids as well, in the future. Please don't drop him as a character, pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease.

“What did William do to people, seriously? Why they hate him do much? All he’s doing is what his mother wanted for him: to be able to do his duty and have love at the same time. If you watch the entirety of the Bashir interview, that’s the bottomline of what Diana said he wanted for William, particularly. Also, Diana also talked about the whole bringing the monarchy closer to the public thing, which I think William is not failing to do. I kinda think he’s misunderstood by people. (Well, not really by the people because he still polls high but by social media I guess).” - Submitted by Anonymous

“Everything William does people have a problem with. Charles has so much more celebrity friends and is always wanting to be seen with celebrities, yet it’s William who gets called “celebrity wannabe”. Fyi, he has the healthiest boundary with celebrity among the three of them (him, Charles, and Harry).” - Submitted by Anonymous

“I know he’s the epitome of male white privilege and he will be King so I can’t feel bad for him, but my heart kinda breaks for Prince William. The way people misunderstand his intentions for wanting people to stop using his mother’s name. He just sees his mother as his mother, as a human being, and not the commodified character that exists in the realm of media and entertainment and pop culture. Is there anything wrong with that? When in his mind it’s the insatiable hunger for anything Diana that is what he thinks lead to her death. The way these people are the ones driving a wedge between him and the memory of his mother, saying she took his genes back or whatever when the reality of the situation is that he just lost his hair like many men do and it has nothing to do with his moral character. Are we supposed to think all men who lose their hair are bad and that only perfect looking people are good? It’s so superficial. And he’s not even that ugly. He just went from looking ethereal to looking like an average human being lol. The way Meghan has completely used his mother’s story to further her agenda and people refuse to see that he was a central figure in Diana’s story. He literally was the baby in Diana’s womb when she wanted to throw herself down the stairs. How it must have been for him growing up and knowing that? It must have had some sort of effect because the fact of the matter is he was the person who told Harry he might need help with his anxiety. Also, the fact that he married a woman with such empathy like Catherine that she was the one who saw the importance of mental health as an underlying theme in all of their different areas of work. And the way people just look at them as mental health deniers because they think they refused Meghan help when Harry himself has admitted he never told them because he was ashamed. And the way people continue to use the pop culture commodified image of Diana to try and canonize Harry and Meghan as saints as well for doing things that are not even as impactful as the work Diana had done. It’s all just done for the sake of continuing narratives in this soap opera. Anyway, whatever.” - Submitted by Anonymous

“Do people even think about William’s mental health in all of this? I feel worried about him. There’s just a sadness in his eyes these days that wasn’t there before. And this is why I can’t get over Harry and Meghan’s selfishness. They can fight for their right to be happy and free, but that’s not all they want. They could’ve escaped royal life without hurting anyone, but they’ve left such a mess. Lies and exaggerations and self-serving narratives. They aren’t simply fighting for their happiness, they want to ruin William and Catherine. Harry will not stop until he’s taken everything from William and William is completely broken.” - Submitted by Anonymous

“The way William is viewed as petty or a bully for all the imaginary ways they think he retaliates against Harry (because Harry plants ideas in people’s with all his insinuations). First of all, after what some people have said about him and Kate while she was battling cancer, I can’t call it petty anymore if William is in whatever way actually retaliating. Does William not have his own mental health? Does William not have his own trauma? Does William not have his own children he has to take care of? Does William not have his own wife who battled cancer while people salivated at the thought of “history repeating itself”?” - Submitted by Anonymous

Rainbow after the Storm

(That’s My Seat Epilogue)

Synopsis: dating 15 years into the future the main characters of “That’s My Seat” enjoys the moment of being alive.

Word Count: 430

Enjoy this lil epilogue piece I did!, i enjoyed making this series (I didn’t get to sleep much for this 😔)

The music was soft, classy—an old jazz record spinning beneath the noise of clinking glasses and laughter.

The rooftop was glowing with string lights, soft golden warmth against the winter cold. The city skyline stretched behind you like a painting, skyscrapers blinking into the new year one by one.

You were older now. Not old, but grown.

The kind of grown that comes with worn-in shoes and quieter dreams. Your jersey days were behind you—though sometimes, you still caught yourself spinning a ball on your finger just for the feel of it.

Across the crowd, you spotted familiar faces.

Jihoon, now managing two cafés and married to the barista who once trained him. He waved at you, raising a drink.

Rian was by the buffet, stuffing his face with shrimp like nothing had changed. Sooyeon slapped his arm, scolding him in the same tone she’d once used during cheer practice. They hadn’t married yet, but they were solid. The type of couple that just… worked.

The DJ announced five minutes till midnight.

You felt someone take your hand. That same grip. That same quiet, grounding warmth.

Karina.

Her hair was shorter now, curled at the ends. There were lines beside her eyes—but they made her look more alive, not older. She still looked at you like you hung the moon.

“Still hate rooftop parties?” she asked, nudging your shoulder.

You smiled. “Only when you’re not beside me.”

She rolled her eyes, but the smile was there. That same one that started it all

“You know,” she said, watching the lights, “this still feels surreal. Us. Everyone. How we ended up here.”

You nodded. “Yeah. It started with a missed seat.”

“And a terrible Spanish latte,” she added, laughing.

The countdown began. People gathered near the edge, fireworks already primed in the distance.

Ten. Nine. Eight.

Karina leaned into your side.

Seven. Six. Five.

Sooyeon was pulling Rian into a dance. Jihoon spun his wife under the lights.

Four. Three.

You turned to Karina.

Two.

“I love you,” you said.

She blinked once—then smiled that familiar smile.

One.

And the sky exploded in color.

You kissed her, gentle and full of years. Of memories. Of every game won and lost, of every cafe moment, every misunderstanding, every quiet night spent building this life together.

When the crowd cheered and the fireworks faded, you pulled away only slightly.

“Happy New Year,” you whispered.

She tucked her face into your neck. “Let’s do it again next year.”

And just like that, the past folded into the present. The new year had begun.

Together.

i use this blog for a multitude of things but one of those things is ranting about whatever fandom I'm currently devouring without regard to my well being and as my anniversary and RoTS rerelease coincided on the same day and i have caught up on Andor with my amazing husband who listens to me rant about this franchise daily

i am going FERAL over Andor right now. like absolutely clawing at the WALLS where is the hype y'all???

total spoilers going forward btw sorry :/

this show does SUCH A GOOD JOB at NOT holding the audiences hand, but at the same time if you go back to rewatch you can totally catch all the little hints and straight up telling the show does without it making it seem like a kids show. it trusts its audience to find their own footing, and even if you don't catch every single little thing? doesn't matter! you can put the pieces together later because the amount of discussion you can have about it just OOZES!!!

mon mothma. holy. fucking. shit. it's been said to death but HOW COOL IS SHE??? THIS is the Padme we should've seen in RoTS. relentless, secretive, putting EVERYTHING on the line, even her own daughter, to take down the Emperor. this is a woman who knew what she needed to do, and then went another mile all while making me ashamed to say i wear clothes because omgs this woman's WARDROBE???

gonna go with Kleya here bc yes i love seeing Luthen on screen, Stellan kills as always, but Kleya is a huge mystery. like yeah we know p much jack shit about Luthen but what do we really know about Kleya? i don't think she's an Empire operative at all, but she clearly has her own motivations and i kinda wanna know what they are ? and it certainly feels like she's kind of a counterweight to Luthen's unbridled passion for the Rebellion, she's put him in his place several times and i want to know why/how that dynamic came about

bix and cassian. i love cassian endlessly. im in love. head over heels. a lover forced to fight and now he's making smart moves instead of acting on pure desperation. loved seeing how he handled himself with the Ghormans, THAT is the Cassian that will show up in Rogue One. a leader, well aware of the strengths and flaws of those around him, and who will leap into action without thinking about himself first.

and Bix. oh Bix. ive kinda hated the trauma wheel that she's been on, but it was SO cathartic to see her put Gorst through exactly what she went through. fantastic. no notes. but i have a heavy heart in saying i think she's going to die before the end. possibly in the next act, as i just dont see Cassian moving on from her if she's alive, and we all know how Rogue One went.

dedra and syril together too, but i couldn't find a gif of them lmao. but honestly? i fucking hate them as people, but hubby and i could not stop laughing at their relationship it's genuinely so comical. the shot of Syril flopped on the bed? flawless. Dedra ORDERING HIM TO TURN THE LIGHTS OFF? we had to pause and just laugh for like ten minutes bc honestly yeah girl i wouldn't wanna look at him while i pegged him either.

but on a serious note, i find it increasingly interesting to see the Empire and Rebellion playing each other simultaneously and also failing. just shows how realistic this portrayal of a fractured Rebellion is and how arrogant the Empire is to assume that everything is being coordinated. LOVE the complexity but also i need Tony Gilroy to stop giving me an aneurysm every week bc i am STRESSED about these characters!!

[wild-fleurs]

This may be an unpopular opinion but I don’t think Shawn should have ever told Juliet he wasn’t psychic if I was Shawn maybe I’d triple down on the lie or explain it away somehow eg ‘my visions were cloudy so I had to get more information to confirm the hazy things I was seeing’ ect

I’d never actually admit it even/especially to Juliet

(I get it IRL it’s terrible to keep such a secret but IRL there’s no coming back from two people with that level of foundational lie & reveal/fallout - IRL Juliet would have either turned him in or transferred out IMO)

I haven’t rewatched in a while but I was thinking about it & I truly think when it get a down to it Juliet was partly so hurt because she truly believed he was psychic

Nobody but Juliet believes him even if they play along & I think she was more hurt to find out that she was wrong/that everyone else knew & would then feel embarrassed for believing

Gus: actively helps sell the lie/deception - he’s a co-conspirator/accomplice lol

Henry: knows he’s not & disapproves but part of him is proud he’s at least using the skills he taught him, he helps investigatively not ‘psychically’ so to speak

Chief Vick: 100% knows he’s not but pretends to buy it because she wants plausible deniability & wants to use his skills to her advantage to solve cases & can only do that by “believing”

Lassiter: not just a sceptic/knows he’s not & for a while actively tries to expose Shawn & arrest him but comes to respect his insight even though he hates his antics & wishes they didn’t need Shawn so much because of how much he values his job & the rules of his job which Shawn & psychics in general don’t

Also I want to point out Abigail while not a main character is the only other real love interest Shawn had (from what I remember? I need a rewatch) & she didn’t seem to believe truly he was psychic but was impressed with his party trick stuff/personality but not his ‘powers’ + she knew him before his psychic detective career & the psychic part of his psychic detective career wasn’t an issue for them lol

Apart from the female front desk cop in the pilot Juliet is the only one who truly believes Shawn is a psychic I don’t even think Lucinda (Lassiter’s ex girlfriend/ex partner from the pilot) believed he was psychic even when she was in the ‘Juliet role’ so to speak

I think she just saw Shawn had insights/info they could use & was more receptive to help in general even if from a ‘psychic’ than Lassie

Buzz might have truly believed but he also might just go with the flow & isn’t a main character like Juliet is

But for real when was Shawn supposed to tell Juliet? There was never a good outcome

She met him when he was already working as an established psychic consultant for SBPD

Does he tell her pre dating? When she’s just started a new job & her partner doesn’t like him & she’d be more likely to turn him in to cement the important bond with her partner over the consultant who flirts with her? Not smart

If I was Juliet & Shawn had said ‘hey I’m the psychic consultant at your new job also I think you’re hot we should date by the way I’m a fake psychic’ I’d be freaked out/turned off & turn him in or avoid him

& it’s not first date conversation with all their build up to get to a date just to throw it away with ‘hey I’m not psychic?’

Imagine it while the waiter is bringing your food out all of a sudden you ruin the date/relationship/your career/open yourself up to criminal charges & drag your BFF down too because then what? No second date & no job

Anytime after that once the relationship is solid the problem of the relationship being built on a lie & waiting too long is in play

If Juliet didn’t believe the reveal wouldn’t have been such a big problem or not in the same way/intensity IMO

[the-ellia-west]

Please tell me about your OC's from JoR also where can I find it it sounds completely awesome

AAAAHHHH TYSM FOR THE ASKKKK!!!

Sooo, Regretfully... JoR isn't out anywhere because I prefer to spruce up my art skills before I begin making a webcomic

However, I occasionally post about shenanigans and sometimes written scenes or dialogue!

It is, VERY MUCH a Work in Progress.

But the Main characters!!!! My lovely Hearth-wolves below the cut! (Beware, you told me to tell, and so I YAPPED)

Ronan, Our Lovely main character, is a vibrating ball of anger who loves sharp objects, punching things, and shouting. He is... by nature and motif, Violent. And not ashamed of it. He is driven by anger and high energy and to him, it's almost basically all he has left. Ronan is very loud and stubborn and doesn't like accepting help, and generally a little dismissive on accident. However, this energy does extend to how he loves and feels for things and people, as he loves very deeply and fiercely. He wears his heart on his sleeve and refuses to apologize for it. He's just a LITTLE stupid as he prefers to follow his heart rather than his head and very rarely thinks before he acts.

Next up is Finn, The wonderful leader of the group. He's level-headed and resourceful, making quick decisions and doing whatever he thinks is best for the greater good and his team. He's generally very respectful and well-mannered and loves to travel. He's an advocate for hard work and more than anything in the world he wants to be responsible and trusted with something big and important. He's the oldest of the group, very experienced and always does his best. However sometimes he takes too much responsibility on himself and leaves his friends and family with nothing to do, running himself into the ground. He's also prone to get VERY defensive if he's insulted or attacked without reason. He also has a crush on Morena.

Third Morena. Morena is a softspoken and kindhearted Healer who wants to help as many people as she can. She's very kind and never holds a grudge. She always tries to do her best and puts in all the effort to make the world even just a little bit better for anyone else. She finds joy in taking care of others and sees worth in every life, no matter how small or how horrible, and wants to bring out the light in the world for everyone to see. However, she is also prone to anxiety and often chooses to cheer on others rather than take time aside for herself. She sees only most murder and worse scenarios as the only things that can't really be forgiven.

After Morena is Rose. Rose is a confident and persistent VERY powerful life mage. She's fascinated with magic and the way it travels between the realms and every living thing. She spends most of her time in the library researching or testing the limits of her own magic. She's incredibly loving and loyal to the last breath to those she loves. Hurt her family and you will be plant food before you can even explain why or beg for mercy. She never gives up and will get back up until she literally can't anymore. She's very compassionate and kind alongside this. Her loyalty may get her into trouble, but if you are the subject of said loyalty, you have pretty much the best hope of protection you can get in the kingdoms of the Trifold-coast Alliance.

Then Jakkon. Or Jak as I call him. (He's my favorite) Jak is a deadbeat by definition, he didn't want to be here and he plans to make that everyone else's problem. He's hostile and hates the world and himself, and takes this out by being generally hostile to everyone and everything. He does have the charisma and intelligence to pull off a lot of high-stakes bargains and lies when he needs to, and as a former politician he's learned to weasel his way out of almost any situation, however he chooses not to use these skills just because he prefers to make things difficult. He's generally pretty quiet and solitary unless it comes to his sister Rose, or people he hates. He very much dislikes being called anything other than an asshole because he doesn't know how to respond. He's one of only two members of the group who doesn't have magic.

6th is Mangrove. Mangrove is a fallen god, young and egotistical, believing himself to be better than everyone because they're all mortals and he's not. He's got the sass of hundreds stored in his little head, and hates being told what he can and can't do. He's very powerful and very emotional. Alongside these factors, Mangrove is Bipolar, and because of the way he's been raised, he doesn't understand how to handle his disorder and behaves erratically most of the time. However, once someone has earned his respect, he will try his best to school his emotions around them and pretend that he is the perfect rule-follower to earn their love.

Second to last is Wild. Wild is the youngest member of the group. He's barely a teenager and bc of the abuse he's suffered and other such traumatic conditions, he is selectively mute and has suppressed almost all emotion. He wants to feel emotion and though he is very quiet, he loves his team to the best of his capability and wants to help. He's incredibly observant and doesn't have much of a filter, saying what he sees unless he thinks it will cause some sort of harm. He just wants safety and attaches himself to the most emotional of the group in order to maybe mimic them and feel again. He's very innocent and small.

Then Lastly there is Phenik.phenik is a cinnamon roll, a little snake. Boop noodle. He is innocent and very curious. He loves exploring and asks a ton of questions because he hasn't experienced a lot in his life and he's excited by a ton of things. Phenik sees the silver lining in every cloud and is the peace-keeper alongside Morena. He hates fighting and is the reason the group keeps going half the time. He's the sweetest sweetheart and just wants to help and learn more about the world.

I'm yours [david/patrick, G, 2,444] by my_middle_name_is_awkward

Okay, who the hell did Patrick think he was? He had absolutely no right to walk into David’s life and make him fall so hard so fast. That was not okay and David was furious. Okay, maybe he wasn’t...furious, but he was upset. He thought he had a while before he started to fall in love with Patrick, but it looked like that wasn’t at all accurate.

Insomnia [david/patrick, NR, 1,274] by @samwhambam

David always assumed that Patrick was a morning person, which he is. He just didn't know that he also suffers from insomnia from time to time.

Never Gonna Get My Love [patrick/rachel, G, 423] by thisisfromawhileago

He should probably be an adult and call her, cause when its all said and done, she’s never gonna get his love.

Patrick's Last Secret [david/patrick, g, 3,024] by hollybibble

David is trying one more time to throw a surprise party, this time for Alexis before she leaves for the Galapagos. It's Patrick's job to keep her busy for the afternoon, but he still has one secret from David- he is a little scared of Alexis. Takes place a few days after S05E14 Life is a Cabaret.

[Podfic] Never Felt This Way Before [david/patrick, T, podfic] by @kiwiana-writes

“Well, it’s settled. Dirty Dancing it is.” David puts the disc in the player as Patrick fiddles with the remote to get it started. David sits back in the same spot on the couch and picks up his wine glass. He can’t stop stealing glances at Patrick as the movie starts and they eat their pizza. He cares whether Patrick likes the movie, he’s surprised to find. And he can’t stop thinking about what Stevie said. Was this really supposed to be a date? What if David and Patrick's first date was on Valentine's Day?[Podfic of Never Felt This Way Before written by schittposting]

Blood As Sweet as Cherry Wine [david/patrick, E, 5,712, CW: violence] by @asoftplacetoland

If the Warners took David, that meant they realized David wasn’t who he appeared to be and Patrick would likely be here soon if he wasn’t already on the premises. While being kidnapped was mostly just inconvenient, the real issue at hand was that David hated when more people found out the truth, even a minor wannabe family mob like the Warners. A Schitt's Creek Mob AU with a twist.

Don't Fold a Grudge [david/patrick, T, 6,593] by @lisamc-21

David's just doing his job. Really. So what he wrote an article that said Patrick Brewer's croissants were an abomination, and Patrick couldn't deal with it. It's not his fault. One article leads to a feud and a lot of buzz and two people who seem to hate each other who maybe don't hate each other at all. Also, croissants. Lots and lots of croissants. (also, this fic marks me surpassing 500,000 of words in the fandom!)

Don't Whump with My Heart [david/patrick, M, 26,218, CW: major character injury] by @delilah-mcmuffin

Patrick’s plans for romantic hike/picnic go terribly, terribly wrong. Spoilers for 5.13: The Hike

how it's gonna always be [david/patrick, E, 34,567] by @reginahalliwell

Patrick does some soul searching after his latest breakup with Rachel and takes an impromptu trip to New York City. David works in NYC as an escort after fleeing Schitt's Creek when the town sale falls through, and takes on a client who has just realized he is gay. Set in an alternate post-season 1, but of course the timeline is nonsense. POV changes are marked using ~ within chapters.

I've got the sweetest hangover [david/patrick, T, 2,130] by @simplymarleycat

“I was wondering if you boys are doing anything special for Sweetest Day? Joce and I were looking for-” “What the fuck is Sweetest Day?” ---David loves Patrick, Patrick loves David, but Roland never helps!

it's gonna be good (it's gonna be better) [david/patrick, T, 4,448] by @flashbastard

David's seen enough romantic comedies to know happy endings like that don't happen in real life. That doesn't stop him hoping.

Like Kindling to a Flame [david/patrick, T, 1,140] by @mostlyinthemorning

What if Patrick had been confident enough to kiss David after the birthday dinner? Here’s how that might have gone down.

Magical Missteps and Lycanthropic Liaisons [david/patrick, E, 6,209] by @redwineandqueer

When a mysterious patch of magic appears on the walls of Rose Apothecary, David, the only witch in a town full of werewolves, is tasked with fixing it. With sex. A magical mystery featuring magic, werewolves, witches, various unhelpful townsfolk, an unrepentant Roland Schitt, and a whole lot of orgasms.

There it is on the tip of my tongue [david/patrick, E, 2,608] by @designatedgrape

“Patrick Brewer!” David's voice is loud in his own ears as it echoes around the empty coffee shop. "Seriously, what the fuck?" Patrick appears from the back, brushing off his hands on his jeans like some kind of child, and walks around the counter. "You maybe want to watch your language while you're in my cafe?" An alternate universe in which David owns Rose Apothecary, and Patrick owns a coffee shop across the street.

This Joy is So Deep [david/patrick/stevie, E, 2,693] by @floosilver8

Wheel of Fortune: New York Edition! [david/patrick, T, 10,571] by @middyblue

Patrick spends his evenings with his new roommate Stevie watching NY1's Wheel of Fortune spin-off hosted by Johnny and David Rose, until one day he accidentally bumps into David Rose himself on the train and starts to fill in some of the blank spaces in his life.

My thoughts on E7 S6

After all… it wasn't that bad… in fact, I loved it.

I think first of all, June needs to open her eyes to her reality. Everything people sacrifice for her and don't measure the consequences. It's time for her to understand that everything has repercussions.

The scene after the closet. I thought June would be furious and scream, but that wasn't the case. She was in shock and analyzing everything. Meanwhile, Nick had his chance to speak and explain his point a bit. But June doesn't hate him; she's disappointed. She's different, and we have something to hold onto.

The car scene, I loved how dramatic June almost threw herself out of the car (she's just a girl) and her saying, "Leave me here, I'll get out here." It's a very normal couple's fight. I found that moment funny.

Now, afterward, Nick is right in what he says to June, and that doesn't make him a villain, he makes it a reality. He does everything for her, but that doesn't mean he's not a commander and an eye, and he has to stay alive, so even though it wasn't right, June also lives under that regime that she has to survive. I suppose that with time she will understand that there wasn't much else to do there. It broke my heart when he called June, and she wouldn't turn around and screamed "June" louder and you can see how much it hurt to leave… my heart ached in that scene.

Luke is a manipulator. He knows June is hurt and pushes her even harder, making her feel bad and guilty about everything. And I can't stand him. His ego is so big, and he doesn't care if it makes June less. I can't stand him. If she missed Nick, it was because Luke couldn't understand her in the slightest. And this season, that gap is even more noticeable.

Rita arrived at a very bad time because Nick was sinking in his self-hatred, so he thinks he lost June and Rita comes to reaffirm that he is being used and that he is only good for that. So I don't agree with what he said but he's right, he must be tired of being used and not feeling useful, and that helped Rita open her eyes and realize that she has to fight for herself and no one will do it for her and that's okay, Nick is devastated but I don't see him deciding to be from Gilead completely, he's just lost without the thought of June in his life.

 Who would say that Moira was the one who had the most common sense in the chapter and that I don't blame her for loving Nick, I never thought she would understand but Moira is saying things that June refused to think, she trusted him because he had never disappointed her, she loves him because he was the only good thing in Gilead and despite his mistakes she still loves him and that is what hurts the most because everyone tells her that she is wrong and she still feels love for him, and Moira was the friend she needed where everyone was judging her for her feelings and I loved that scene

Lawrence just wants to stay alive and knows he needs June to fight too, I also think he was a bit hypocritical saying that Nick can't be trusted when he's the only one he talks to and plans things with, it's like they're trying to make him less trustworthy when we know he's one of the ones who has helped everyone the most and I don't agree with this narrative

And finally, Janine, please let her stop suffering. This character lives from suffering to suffering and it's time for her to stop, for her to fight for her freedom, for them to help her get out. She's the one who has lived through Gilead the most and I need a good ending for her, for her to be able to live in peace in Canada or wherever, but for her to get out of that place.

And the revolution begins. I'm very excited because if I want everyone to pay for what they did, and Serena deserves to suffer at this point, what a blind woman. I want to see the Handmaids united and everyone fighting against Gilead. It's time for everything not to go perfectly for that oppressive country.

Among all things, it was a great episode. I didn't feel like everything was over for June and Nick, and their relationship with Luke is becoming weaker and weaker. No matter how much they both hold on, they both know at this point it's not going to work. Whether June stays with Nick or not, Luke is still not the best option, so I have faith that they'll leave him the right way. Especially since June has tried several times to leave Luke this season, and he insists they can stay together. Now that she's fighting with Nick, he's taking advantage of it, and it's not fair to be in a relationship like that.

I don't think it was as bad as I thought it would be and there's still hope and this fight is about to start for real so I'm excited for the next chapter!

I'm a huge fan of radiostatic

The show hints they have a complicated past together, but you also said in a previous post that it doesn't look like Vox is pining for Alastor in stayed gone. How do you think their actual relationship will play out in the show ?

Well, I think the hints we are seeing of their past friendship are veritable and not our delusional shipper little minds grasping for straws. Whatever happens in season two it definitely will be emotionally heavy. At least for Vox, and dare I say I think it'll also be for Alastor.

Because, objectively speaking, Alastor doesn't really... have any friends. Mimzy uses him, and I think Alastor knows the hotel is apprehensive of him and keeps him at a distance as a colleague. Which only really leaves Rosie (who's also an overlord, but I doubt she's someone who would Alastor would die for or who he would die for) and Niffty (who's probably his thrall and can't be his equal as long as she is). And Alastor is a very extroverted guy. The only times his reputation as a stone-cold, heartless murderer is alluded to are what OTHER people say of him. Meanwhile, the people who know Alastor, aren't... that afraid of him. On a more intimate level, Alastor is very approachable and easy to talk to. He NEEDS friends. He NEEDS verbal communication, which is why I think his fallout with Vox hit him hard, no matter whose fault it was.

Now, Vox is clearly still pissed, and so is Alastor despite being able to hide it better. To me Stayed Gone borders somewhere between mortal enemies and exes who are biting at each other. And I don't think Vox is the pining sort based on his actions during ep 2 which I covered in this post:

(I think this might be the post i question. I'm adding it as a screenshot because tumblr was lagging on the link function)

I also found another post @moodooivy that really nails Alastor’s behaviour:

Personally (now this is just my opinion) I think Vivienne will continue the trend of "best friends suffered a brutal accident that was neither of their fault and got estranged then they hated each other for years only to reconcile and become best friends again in the end" that she did with Blitz and Fizz. I think a scene between Vox and Alastor is inevitable at this point. And I think it won't just be an emotional reconciliation.

The show has a limited amount of time at its disposal. And in any other instance, such an emotionally charged scene would have enough time to be fleshed out, to focus on the characters and their thoughts. But, Hazbin doesn't have that time. So, I think during that reconciliation SOMETHING important will be said (whether it's Alastor’s true intentions for the hotel or that he has always planned to betray them, Alastor’s dealer whoever it is had some hand in their split up and is planning something devious, Vox professing how much Alastor meant to him and how much he cared about him etc. etc. Or perhaps that he's never cared at all, and vise versa. Maybe they figure out Valentino somehow meddled with their relationship, or smth). It will be violent and intense, maybe a big fight where one nearly kills the other or an outside interference stops them, before it eventually subsides since these two can't keep a straight head around each other. And it's gonna happen in the last few episodes because either they both come out alive and well, which is bad news for everyone else since together they would be a massive powerhouse, or one of them dies - and the death of a fan favorite is impactful which would mean the writers would want to leave it near the end, right before season 3.

This is all me theorising though!! I love hearing predictions about season 2 and I'd love to talk about this in the comments and hear what you and others think 💜💜

DINA: “Together.”

Too damn right. Dina is not useless or redundant or incompetent just because she’s pregnant. Yes, it puts the baby at risk. It also puts her at risk. But would that be any different from any other day? No, it wouldn’t.

Right decision. And I expect them to follow it through.

I don’t fucking like it when pregnant characters have to sit out of a storyline just because they’re gonna have a baby. Even if they want to keep that baby. Don’t do it. Don’t reduce that character to a liability, don’t get mad at them for it and don’t make it out like they’re useless.

Right decision they made there. That’s my take on it.

I don’t care if this severely changes up the narrative because Ellie isn’t as angry as she should be feeling as vengeful and hateful as she does over the loss of Joel.

I’d rather they do something different there than drop Dina out of the show completely. I really like this Dina.

I like what she represents and I like that she’s more than just a love interest or a plot device… unlike in the game.

This isn’t just Ellie or Abby’s story anymore. And if you’re not down with that, that’s your prerogative. But I want to know all these other characters much more intimately and that is what the TV show is providing me.

Once again. RIGHT. DECISION.

You lot want it exactly like the game. I don’t.

In the game, Ellie chooses vengeance. Not family.

Maybe in the TV show (very likely actually) she won’t.

I said this before in my meta for EP 2 and 3.

I don’t think it’s Ellie that’s driving this revenge story.

I think it’s Dina. And I like that. I like that a fucking lot.

Because it proves Dina is not just there to be there.

She’s fundamental to the entire fucking process of it.

Look at the way she said to Ellie about potentially finding Wolves that weren’t at Jackson and you saw Ellie’s face. You knew what that face meant. You knew.

And she immediately agreed.

This time they’re on the same wavelength.

They both want this and Dina isn’t gonna sit out.

She’s going to be right there with her. As she should be.

You wanted the WLW love story. I’m sorry if it doesn’t look like what you expected it to. This is what love is.

It’s being there - going through the storm - hand in hand. Together. And coming out of it that way too.

This is what the game didn’t do. The TV show will.

Yes, that severely changes the way the story works.

Ask yourselves the question: Does it really matter?

You already have what you wanted in the game.

What do you want from the ADAPTATION of it?

Because it’s not going to be what was in the game.

This is THEIR world. Their choices and their actions.

“Their” meaning more than Ellie and Abby. This is a unique opportunity to get to know WHO EVERYONE IS.

They are really showing that through Dina and Tommy.

This is not a first-person action horror survival narrative. This is a realistic apocalyptic drama.

Everyone is involved and everyone has agency.

That is what you’re getting with the TV show.

If you don’t like it. That’s fine. But please be smart enough to recognize that just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean that it’s “bad” or “wrong” or “stupid.”

I’ve watched enough TV shows - adapted from other source media material at that - where queer characters are left on the sidelines. And I do not want to see it here.

I do not care if it is not the way it went in the game.

I didn’t like the way it went in the game anyway.

I didn’t like that Dina was shafted because “preggers”

I didn’t like that Jesse was killed as soon as he found out. I don’t like characters being treated like nothing.

And I especially did not like that Ellie chose vengeance over her own family because she couldn’t get passed it.

I liked that it was realistic telling of the cycle of violence. But I don’t need to see that on my TV.

I already have it in the game thank you very much.

If you dislike the Pokeani that much, fine. And like I said, I wasn't too fond of how Serena was handled in the anime (especially considering what I've heard of Yvonne and to a lesser extent her game depiction). That being said, I personally felt how May was handled in the anime was WAY worse (at least with Serena, you got the sense that she had some trouble with her mom regarding a career she didn't even want and also wanted to prove to her mom that she COULD in fact follow through with fully for why she went on a journey besides Ash initially, even if Amourshipping unfortunately got the full focus. May, on the other hand, was poorly written from the get go, and ironically enough actually ACTED more like a waifu to Ash than Serena did especially after how, DESPITE already heading over to New Bark Town and even attempting to save Professor Birch [with limited success at best], she acted like ASH inspired her to become a trainer purely due to witnessing him save Pikachu from Team Rocket, basically forgetting the fact that she was already TRYING to become a trainer. Not to mention her pretty much disrespecting the whole POINT behind being a trainer by hating the whole POINT behind the long-term career, aka, Pokemon, and explicitly using it as an excuse to travel [and her family life not even justifying this, nor for that matter her even having a good reason to begin with. Being conked by mistake by Caroline at the beach. Give me a freaking break... Did MISTY hate Water Pokemon in their entirety after wandering into one's mouth?].). In fact, all of Serena's writing flaws, MAY started. If anything, Serena barely got better development ultimately than May did.

As far as Misty... considering her game self actually managed to incorporate enough elements from the anime version that, if anything, the game version is nearly one and the same with her anime counterpart by this point, I'd argue her anime counterpart was written VERY well ultimately. Besides, I cited earlier how Misty at least DEFINITELY had better characterization from other girls within the OS, much less the anime as a whole, even showed off some screencaps proving it.

Well, either way, you dislike Pokeani and its female leads, be my guest. And for what it's worth, I'd rather take "heteronormative" than "transplanting an animal's mindset into a female".

EDIT: One last thing regarding Cecile and Peace Walker, as much as I felt her characterization was genuinely terrible (with it NOT helping that Peace Walker, contrary to past games, was specifically aimed to the same age group as the Pokemon anime), she if anything was the LEAST of that game's problems (namely, the start of Kojima petulantly disowning any games he didn't directly direct, aka, Portable Ops, his retconning Miller's background, his going all Seth MacFarland in having characters be recepticles for his philosophies even compared to before to such an extent that they're parroting his love for Che despite being blatantly out of character for them even in-game, much less past entries, and his REALLY going overboard with his extremely anti-American views).

If I just lay here, will you pelt me with snowballs?

“Dain is just an imperfect 21-year-old kid who trusted his dad, and is a little over-protective telling his chronically ill friend to sit the fuck down.”

[charafansmile]

Something about toriel hating the monsters outside of the ruins in similar way to chara hating humanity. Not only does she isolate herself from them, but the ruins monsters are also pretty intimidated by her. if she never made that agreement with sans then im pretty sure there would have been no convincing her to let us leave. Like at all.

God even the queen toriel ending might suck for her just a bit. Imagine being put in charge of your people who betrayed you and are all willing to play niceys NOW after 6 of your kids died (in the name of 2 of them!) and they would've killed the 7th if they didn't befriend everyone! No wonder she got rid of the royal guard and told everyone to be nice and welcoming as far as she would be concerned that's what they should have been doing from the start. I imagine it's very awkward between her and undyne. I know she fires alphys in Canon, but I imagine they would have eventually started to get along and she could join the human fanclub with mettaton. But God it'd probably be so awkward. So so awkward. I really think she develops a great disdain for monster kind during her exile that she has to workout.

I know what she says here is popularly interpreted as the 'them' being asgore/ the royal guard. But it always felt like to me she was referring to monster kind as a whole. (That and if chara has similarities to toriel, it makes sense that toriel would have similarities to them...)

Exiled queen is even WORSE for her cause now that disdain is mutual and the little kid she tried to protect killed people and a war is inevitable at that point. At least with asgore in charge she had the solace that he would be too much of a coward to go through with it. At least she has sans (and sometimes papyrus) in those endings for support but I can't imagine she in any way in a better mental place than before.
