#They are not even enemies ffs

I originally did not want to engage in any of this nonsense because I honestly believe that taking sides in a toxic relationship where both parties have repeatedly used each other for their own gain and have a lot of ongoing misunderstandings and miscommunication is pretty stupid.
So I am gonna preface this with saying that I am neither „Team Blitz“ nor „Team Stolas“ and I do not hate any of them. Both Blitz and Stolas are inherently good people with flaws and issues due to their trauma, and that impacts all of their relationships. I think the narrative has been very clear on that, so idk where people get the idea from that one is the victim and one is the abuser in this situation.
They both are not innocent. Painting one as the abuser and one as the victim is disingenuous as they have both done objectively morally questionable shit.
But recently I have seen people shitting on Stolas so much and painting him as this awful abuser, even going so far as to call him the abusive party and the show adressing any faults Blitz has in this relationship as „victim blaming“.
Bruh.
So I really felt the need to adress this.
First of all:
„Sexual harassment“ – Please do look at the context of S2 ep 1. We are precisely told why Stolas acts the way he does. He believes that Blitz is into him behaving like a kinky bottom, and that Blitz wants him that way. That is why he acts the way he does.
Does that make it right?
No, but it is a matter of miscommunication rather than Stolas purposefully overstepping boundaries.
Once the Ozzie’s ep happens and Blitz confronts him about „Stolas only wanting him for sex“, his approach changes and he tones his aggressive flirting down a lot, as well as any pet names etc.
Yes, Stolas did things wrong.
He actively tried to mend things and do better.
Idk why people ignore that or call context and character development we have been given as „retcon“.
Then I have also seen some awful takes recently on how Stolas expected a relationship from Blitz and tried to manipulate him by offering him the Asmodean crystal.
Dude.
Are we watching the same show, guys?
He gave him that Asmodean crystal WITHOUT EXPECTING ANYTHING in return precisely because he wanted to form a relationship free of any obligations/transactions where Blitz could make a choice to be with him or not.
The power imbalance. Yeah, the power imbalance with the whole Grimoire situation and also just in general have always been a problem, but that is what Stolas tried to better by giving Blitz the Asmodean crystal so that their relationship would not involve the livelihood of Blitz in any shape or form anymore.
Also I am a bit annoyed by people ignoring that the whole relationship started because Blitz tried to manipulate Stolas to steal from him. Doesn’t make the transactional relationship ok, but Blitz never started out as a completely innocent party in this whole deal either.
Could have Stolas communicated his reasoning to Blitz better and asked him if he even wanted the crystal in the first place? Sure, I am not saying that Stolas handled everything 100% perfectly.
But some people here go out of their way so much to paint Stolas as this malicious sexual abuser, ignoring context, how both parties share blame on the situation derailing like that due to miscommunication and misunderstandings.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
#Stolas#Stolitz#Fandom rant#Blitzø#These hate campaigns against any of these two characters are getting on my nerves#They are not even enemies ffs#They are two flawed people who caught feelings and are terrible at dealing with them rn#Let them learn and grow#And please stop ignoring the context the narrative presents you with#pro stolas#i am also pro blitzø but i have seen less hate for him so

If you still wanna hear, yeah, there's a short story on Gangrel's past in the Japanese website and its all about how other Plegians hurt him and thats why he hates the entire world rather than anything Ylisse did.
And of course, Aversa's story makes no mention of Ylisse's warcrimes either and instead goes on about how the people Ylisse was trying to kill, the Grimleal, were the people that killed her family and destroyed her village, as well as that no one could possibly care about them.
Awakening has major issues with Plegia, especially with the Egyptian coding and the demonization...
need you to imagine me banging my head against the wall, thats so annoying!! like ok intsys we get it ylisse is the good white nation that can never do wrong and everyone who thinks otherwise is evil and bad and black and brown and bad we get it we fucking get it!!
#asks#grarrfghhahrbhdgg#awakening world building my enemy i hate you!!! you suck!!!!!!#thank u anon for the info i will be ignoring it when forming my better timeline of events in my head#i cant fucking stand this game sometimes…#like it is one of my favorites but like WOW it sucks a lot sometimes#like god tell me how you really feel about people of color. fuck#like why would they even say ylisse did all that shit in the past just to backtrack JUST TO BE RACIST#ffs

Golden Shower :
The battle's only going to get tougher from here on out. The Immortal Corps is ready to go! Then let loose! Blot out the sky with your arrows!
"who gives a fuck"
Alas, plot armour and Clout being the main lead means we have, instead of this very badass sequence where Rhea and her randoms dgaf about fiery arrows :
"Eek! Something's falling from the sky!"
Flayn, you saw the same thing happen at the same place 1000 years ago, it's not different!
"We are in serious peril! Everyone, fall back!"
Seteth :(
You intercepted a random who was totes going to be shield bashed with your wyven, 1000 years ago, when you weren't giving any fucks about those arrows, why are they suddenly a "serious peril"??
I'll forever wonder why the people who made that intro sequence spent so much time detailing how Claude's tactics against Rhea 1k years ago didn't work, to fart on this intro and suddenly make them work - but I guess when you join Supreme Leader, your plot armor becomes as huge and unsightly as possible, regardless of the rest of the game, to make sure the protags win.
#3 nopes#look at those randoms behind her#you have mounted units who dismounted to run behind Seiros ffs#what were they even thinking#'why is she running like that first in the enemy lines?' 'who knows let's follow'#we have the same rain of arrows strategy and goneril fighting#but this time Rhea loses? lol#either macuil'n'indech were vital to the victory#or clout's plot armor was so heavy that it dragged his route down the Supreme Abyss#rhea stuff

Man, I feel very "old man yells at clouds/back in my days" right now, but powercreep has made the game so... unfun.
Sure it's nice to do things faster when you're in a hurry, but when all challenge in open world group fights is gone and meta bosses melt in less than 2 minutes...
I don't want to play an autoclicker when I open gw2, but it's really starting to feel like it.
#sure the return event is making it worse because maps are bursting with skilled players but last time it wasn't THIS bad#and NO I don't want to run a boon build just to get credit because I can't even TAG enemies ffs#I shouldn't have to use the skyscale fireball in HOPES of tagging something because it dies before I can even register it's there#and again I'll die on the hill that the JW warclaw is too OP for the health of the game#maybe hot take: builds shouldn't do more than 40k even when it's one that you need skills to pull it off. 30k for dps is FINE.#current balance team is doing many good things but they absolutely have to nerf damage across the board ffs#and buffing health bars isn't the answer#Skye says stuff

wait actually connecting the dots was the guy telling us the fight would go well when we were half a party of first timers also the one who forgot to lb3 us like bro was a tank one of em. jffjjssn he forgor.
#the one guy who does know the fight gjdjsjsbsbsbd#no one doing trial roulette at midnight we were all here to discover it#actually the coach review im doing in my head is critical again i realised i once more forgot to hit SSS like i have to figure out a spot on#the hotbar for me to remember#ok authors notes and definitions ¹LB for Limit Break: staple of FF big ability that you get to use after certain conditions#in this case for the time spent in the fight (+other little things but mostly its about the time spent). in the context of this tale#a protective one was needed to supershield us from death. hence 'tank lb' speaking of ²Tank: one of the three key roles in a fight#alongside Healer (self explanatory) and dps (damage-per-second– hence damage dealers) the tank is solid and takes hits#so that the others dont have to. its sturdy and healthy and looks particularly yummy tovthe enemies to make tjem want to hit Just this guy#in this specific story there were Two tanks#one of them seemingly having knowledge of the specific fight we embarked on#the other likely not. neither of them activated the special limited use bug spell we needed to survive though (only they can)#and for ur curiousity dear scientual i play as damage dealer. so that i cant be the bearer of thus sort of mistake ever 👍#though granted dps also could do LB fumbles in this specific fight apparently. twas the fight disclaimers on the guides jdjfjfd#'do NOT cast dps LB UNLESS the boss himself os casting something or else he'll activate invulnerability and make it all useless'#+8second of invulnerability??? bro i just elected to not even try it even before the fight went. awry.#even tho technically my position is good for damage lb its ok given how it went i doubt anyone would mind that no one hit the lb gjdjsjsjsks#to be fair its one of these situations where its better left to the healer in case all goes wrong again#(author note damage lb does big damage. healer lb does big heal and if maxed out on its capacity can even ressurect anyone dead)#(hence. given the struggle. it was better off being theirs even outside of the odd conditions of the boss turning invulnerable)#dont think anyone used it tho#its ok.

Plz as a shang tsung tsimp.
Plz don't treat my mans completely soft. Dont declaw him.
I mean shang tsung can be fluffy,even a sad wet cat. But.....for the love of god people dont forget he's a villain.
Don't wimpify him to add nuance.
He can be sympathetic and you feel bad for him without destroying his whole point of his character.
I hc and it's practically shown even in canon too tho not as well defined that. Shang tsung is liu kang's opposition. He is the yin to lius yang. The darkness to the light. Liu is everything that shang could have had or been. And liu is everything that he could become.
God! I could go on forever about this.
But please if you are gonna like shang tsung. Love him at his bastardness or dont fucking love him at all!
Like we can add a sweet side but dont forget that the snake bites. And is venomous af. And this is ONE DANGEROUS SOB!
Shang tsung tsimps. simp responsibly plz.
#mortal kombat#shang tsung#self ship#shang tsung mortal kombat#self shipping#not really a vent more so just my thoughts lately#dont fucking tumblr brand uwufy my sneky husband!!! 🔪🚫🔫🔥💀#like shang tsung can be soft even respectful honorable and sweet but dont forget he's a villain and a dark sorcerer who steals souls#shang tsung is one badass mofo and he can love his beloved and be sweet with one hand and steal the souls of his enemies with the other#the man has two hands ffs#but yeah i mean we can have a sweet side without declawing the sneky magic man ok?!#villains having nuance and depth doesn't mean getting rid of what makes them well them and why we love them as a villain in the first place#especially shang tsung#long tags

It's so insane to hear Matt Mercer's really great performance as MacCready in FO4 but then anything where he does a Funny Fucking Voice just falls so flat including Ganondorf because he's focusing on Evil Badman Voice and forgets to actually act. Matt I know you can act I've heard it you just gotta stop playing D&D for this session please, please just actually act. How are you getting a role like Ganondorf who is your agent
#bad casting of the century#I don't need to explain Nomura being my enemy#it's not even anything that personal with him bc I don't play FF/KH games#but holy shit they're bad#and he's still bitter over being kicked off a project bc he can't finish a game in 6 years

enough “oh. oh!” moments in fanfic i need a character to realise theyre in love with someone and just go “mmmmmnnnnhhh fuck.” cause that is someone they cannot be liking in this way (esp not this hard)
#not even in an enemies/rivals to lovers way this would work great for friends to lovers#like this is ur best friend u dont wanna fuck that up#hell maybe they arent into ur gender so thats another thing#but ffs u guess ur fucking in love with them now#great!#this is definitely not based off my reaction to discovering my massive crush on my bsf why would it be-#fanfic

Okay I hear this, but you're letting yourself get distracted. The problem isn't vegans, plastic type fabric is many many times cheaper, it's corporations trying to save money, not vegans insisting on using plastic, that is leading this. Just because corporations try to use vague, progressive-sounding language does not mean vegans are out there fighting for plastic clothing. Cut that shit out and focus your anger where it needs to be, at greedy businesses.
#Tumblr is so fkin shit at understanding vegans#I'm not even vegan but ffs they are not your enemy omfg#vegans are largely incredibly concerned with environmental causes in general you're just being tricked by the rich#divide and conquer#stop making up people to blame for issues that are not to blame for it

hello !! i hope ur doing amazing and i wanted to say how much i rlly enjoy reading ur work like its always amazing and just MWAH chef’s kiss fr fr !!
do you think you can do a short writing for either aemond or aegon and how they betray their mother and grandsire for the reader <3 ! sorry if it’s not detailed this is my first time requesting 😔💕
oh and if u can’t i completely understand bookie !!
Broken by War
- Summary: When his mother and grandsire declare you a threat to be rid off, Aemond betrays his family for you.
- Paring: niece!reader/Aemond Targaryen
- Note: The reader is the daughter of Rhaenyra and is bonded with Vermithor.
- Rating: Mature 16+ (just to be safe)
- Next Part: 2
- Tag(s): @sachaa-ff
The pressure in the small council chamber was stifling, every member seated at the long, dark table focused on the map sprawled before them. A heavy silence blanketed the room as Dowager Queen Alicent’s voice echoed through the stone walls, calm but insistent.
"We must strike at Rook’s Rest," she said, her eyes glinting with determination. "Vermithor is a threat that grows with each passing day. We cannot allow her to roam free."
Otto Hightower, standing at her side, nodded in agreement. "Rhaenyra has grown too bold. Your niece wields too much power with that dragon. Vermithor must be neutralized, Aemond. Only Vhagar has the strength to bring the beast down, and only you have the will to do what must be done."
Aemond sat at the far end of the table, silent until now, his one violet eye fixated on the map. His jaw clenched as the voices of his mother and grandfather droned on, discussing tactics to trap her. You. The only person he had loved, the one who haunted his dreams and memories of youth.
The very mention of your name, though unsaid, sent a ripple of heat through his chest. His gaze shifted from the map to Alicent, then to Otto, as they spoke of you and Vermithor as mere obstacles—just another enemy to be destroyed.
But you were not a mere enemy. You were his niece, the daughter of Rhaenyra, and the girl who had once shared moments of innocent laughter with him. Before the war, before the bloodshed, before the divide of loyalties had driven them to opposite sides of this cursed Dance. How could they expect him to harm you?
A sharp crack split the air. The sound of his fists slamming against the table reverberated through the chamber, startling everyone into silence. Alicent and Otto turned, eyes wide, as Aemond rose from his seat, his face a mask of anger and resolve.
“I will not harm her.” His voice was low, dangerous, shaking with barely contained fury. “I will not harm my niece.”
“Aemond,” Alicent said softly, her brow furrowing as she reached out a hand as if to calm him. “She is a threat. You must understand—”
“No,” Aemond snapped, cutting her off. His gaze burned as he turned on them. “You expect me to kill her? To kill the one person I have loved since we were children? Vermithor is no more a threat than Vhagar is. And Y/N—she is not the enemy you make her out to be.”
Otto’s face remained impassive, but there was a flicker of something dark in his eyes. “She rides a dragon that is an old menace. Rhaenyra and her supporters will stop at nothing to see the end of this war, even if it means your death. You know this, Aemond. Only you can put an end to this before she burns the realm to ash.”
Aemond’s gaze flicked back to the map, the cold stone beneath his hands, and then to the faces of those who had shaped his life, who had molded him into a weapon. But not for this. Not against you. His chest heaved with barely contained emotion as the weight of everything pressed down on him—his duty, his family, his love for you.
Slowly, he shook his head, his voice low but firm. “No. I will not do it.”
“Aemond,” Alicent’s voice sharpened, desperation edging into it. “Where are you going?”
Aemond had already turned, his long coat sweeping the floor as he strode toward the door, each step heavy with purpose. He didn’t look back as he answered, the words cutting through the air like a blade. “I am going to Dragonstone. I will kneel before Y/N and Rhaenyra. I will beg for their forgiveness. For everything. For Lucerys.”
There was a stunned silence in the room as the weight of his words settled. Otto’s voice cut through the quiet, sharp as steel. “They will kill you the moment you set foot on Dragonstone, Aemond.”
Aemond paused at the door, his hand on the cold iron handle, and turned to face them. His eye gleamed with a fierceness that made Alicent flinch. “Then let them. I would rather die at her hand than live knowing I betrayed her.”
He left without another word, his footsteps echoing through the stone corridors, each one bringing him closer to you and the fate he had chosen. The weight of his family’s expectations, of the crown’s demands, fell away with each step. In its place, only one thing remained—his love for you and the need to right the wrongs that had torn them apart.
As he mounted Vhagar, he knew there was no turning back. His path was set, and for once, it was a path he chose for himself.

10/10 Agreed. Would like to add that IDF/m0ssad doesn't represent the 1sraeli/jewish people, much like any organisation/world government doesn't represent it's people (if at all??) despite claiming to be. Innocents have always been the victim and used like pawns pit against another to achieve a murderous anti-human agenda throughout entire human history. Guess whose hands are clean whilst using regular human beings to carry out mass death? And it succeeds partly because people allow the media's (among other means) brainwashing that feeds back propaganda that then feeds on your fear and hate. They literally replaced the ukr/rus episode with this rebooted one and people who turned a blind eye/supported genocide of Donbass were miraculously against war in kiev when Donbass fought back and are suddenly realizing, wow, actually genocide (and of palestinians) is bad! Acting as if it only ever happened to jews at one time so it doesn't count when it happens to others. People are being played hard, always have been. They do this every time there's a conflict, being so caught up in self righteous bullshit that they fail to realize they're being manipulated to justify killing civilians. Stop the autopilot npc behaviour of swallowing whatever garbage narrative and opinions of some biased, corrupt politicians. That fk netanwacko was on his way out and, bam - conflict. How fkn convenient, not pre planned at all hmm. who does h@mas answer to, i wonder..? and i don't expect much people to realize this, but understand that *many* politicians, activists etc - not just u.s or other western ones - are 1sraeli dual nationals. So it should come as no surprise where all the bias is coming from; support the state or.. get cancelled, ig? Pay attention, you're not allowed to critisize a certain side. Man, I hope people realize who and what they are actually supporting in this god forsaken world, because you had decades to see it (not counting Gen z). Hell, just these past 3 years should have shaken the majority up but some are still soundly sleeping. Every time they support the bombing, killing, they're contributing to the deaths. worse, condoning it and therefore logically your enemy can continue to do it to you. Not like Palestinians could ever do much in an open prison, what with the 24/7 hr surveillance and weapons testing IDF has done to them. Fucking idiocy.
What's next; Iran? You know "they've" been targeting them for decades too. I can just see it now: Iranians (Or whoever's next) deserved it. Like how every other war torn country was dehumanized before wars broke out and people justified the bloodshed because the media, who totally isn't controlled by humanity-hating governments and their nameless archon overlords that love stealing blood splattered land and resources, said so. How convenient.
Use discernment before looking at *anything* lest they use your emotions to fuel their war machines.. and apply that to pretty much every other social issue too, because it's a business at the end of the day and you are the commodity. Blood is the currency.
Please understand this:
Being Jewish ≠ Zionist. Zionists do not align with Jews. Some Jewish Palestinians have endured years of torture, and there are Jews who advocate for Palestinians. Judaism is manipulated by the West, particularly by the Israeli government, to rationalize their horrendous crimes.
Hamas is not religious. It is an organization that exploits Islam and the suffering of Palestinian civilians to justify their horrendous actions against Israeli civilians—not the government, but innocent civilians. Hamas does not represent Islam. It does not represent Palestinian people. When we say „Free Palestine“ we do not mean „YES, to hamas“. We‘re demanding for the human rights that Palestinians have been denied to for 75+ years.
Most Westerners, specifically those with money and power, do NOT care about innocent lives, whether it be Palestinian lives or Israeli lives. They never have and won’t start anytime soon. They use the suffering of innocents from one side to justify their hatred for the other side, fostering a broader hatred for Arabs and Muslims overall.
Lern about the history, about what’s been going on for the past years and understand who the real enemies are. Understand that it is not a „conflict“, neither is it a religious problem.
If you disagree with me, keep scrolling. If you follow me and disagree with me, unfollow me. I‘ll block you if you leave any disrespectful comments.
#Hell even israelis and Palestinians came together back in 2018 singing that song 'one day' hoping to end the conflict#the people on both sides are intentionally ignored#Ignorance is easily manipulable bc people believe the first thing they're told and that's “our enemy bad” no why about it just “ok master”#but like hypocrites they call upon the deaths of people that never even picked up a gun ffs#they're trying to use this to fulfill some fkn prophecy in the bible#these shit head cabal are on their way out and they fkn know it so they're trying to take down as many to hell with them#and trying to drag people on BOTH sides into it by justifying more death#it's not fkn human bro#rant#non art
