#They have no right to be this cute darnit

[elitadream]

When we think of Mario and Peach's chemistry in the games, any rescue scene is usually what comes to mind. But there's one bit of Mareach interaction I just had to talk about because it's honestly one of my all-time favorite moments with these two.

The introduction sequence of Luigi's Mansion 3.

We see our characters on a bus ride, and the two of them are sitting side by side. Peach appears to be laughing at something Mario said, and they're both having a great time. All goes smoothly until Toad swerves to the right, causing the passengers to lose their balance and bump into each other.

It takes them a second to steady themselves, and the first thing Mario does as he opens his eyes again is glance at Peach with a smile. But it's not his trademark grin. His expression is quite softer than usual, and meeker too.

Even rarer still: he then lets out a timid chuckle. Something I've personally never seen him do in any other game. He's being shy, bless him. Not openly flustered or delighted, but actually shy.

And what does Peach do? She returns his smile with a bright and gleeful "Yahoo!". An all too characteristic exclamation that she has undoubtedly borrowed from him over time.

It's a very small and brief moment. But OMG does it say a lot about their dynamic.

It captures everything that I find so very charming and endearing about their unspoken affection, and it's a very good example of how I imagine those calm and blissful moments between them to be like. The moments we never see as players, but which are surely there as well.

I wish there was one instance where we got to fully see what a pleasant and peaceful day was like for them. But if this is the closest thing we're ever going to get, then I'm okay with that.

Because this scene alone is downright adorable and it makes me very happy. 😊💞

[twisted-wonderland-shenanigans]

Remember that funny video where the dog is staring at the cupcakes but the owner is telling them “away, away”, I imagine that being both Grim and any version of Yuu with Trey in the kitchen and Cater with recording the whole thing

Video in question.

Omg, I remember that episode of “It’s Me or the Dog!” 😂 Victoria is a dog trainer in the show, and she was helping that family stop the family dog who was obsessed with human food and training him to resist the temptation of unattended food on the counter. 🤣

Now, aside from Kaiju!Trey (as they’re not exactly in a good environment or have the same process to make certain ingredients to attempt baking), I can definitely see Monster!Trey and Deity!Trey being used to the swarm of hungry dorm members drooling at the chance to get a bite of baked deliciousness. The moment Grim and Yuu (any of them) come into the picture though, he thinks it’s quite adorable how the two are almost always there, eagerly awaiting the “Go ahead” for them to dig into the tray. 

Oh, there’s a specific pastry that Yuu really misses from home and hasn’t been able to find in Twisted Wonderland? Just describe it to him and he’ll find the closest recipe possible and make sure it tastes the same. Nothing brings about feelings of warmth and comfort than a little taste of home, right? (The first time he does this for Yuu, I can see them crying like Chihiro from Spirited Away did when she was eating the rice ball with Haku nearby ;;v;; )

Meanwhile, Cater’s having a blast recording the reactions and posting to Magicam! Yuu and Grim sitting at the counter eagerly waiting for the treats to come out, resisting the urge to swipe the closest one, then happily humming while eating? Captured on camera~! Mini!Yuu and Grim sitting side-by-side watching the goodies bake in the Monster!AU? Or a video of the tiny toddler asking, “When are the yummies going to be ready?” while staring up at big brother Trey? Both got so many likes and reblogs that it momentarily caused Magicam to crash! 😂

Or how about teen/adult!Yuu (or even mini!Yuu…I just love wholesome cuteness regardless of the AU, darnit!!!) and Grim watching the stone-brick ovens churn out treat after treat as the God of Summer whips up more dough and batter faster than the eye can blink in the Deity!AU, Cater’s always there to capture the moment. He swears it’s like watching two adorable puppies waiting impatiently for their food, while Trey enjoys having the chance to spoil someone other than the members of his pantheon with baked goods! (And of course, he and Monster!AU Trey are more notorious than canon Trey when it comes to teeth hygiene for various reason. Can’t let those chompers get worn down by too much sugar and lack of care!)

Whichever AU they’re in (well, except the Kaiju!AU like I said, since I’m not even sure how they’d go about baking even if our intrepid little human figured out how to do it), Trey is always going to be the one who can whip up anything Yuu can imagine to help them feel at home. It’s not much, but if he can somehow bring a little taste of home to a lonely human/mortal, then that’s all that really matters to him in the end.

Filled out this OTP questionnaire for Tiara B & Jewel the Beetle because if I'm going to think up a cute crackship of a pairing that can't ever be real, the least I can do is make content for it

(also this is based on my AU for Tiara that I posted a couple days ago)

1. Who most initiates PDA?

Tiara, not necessarily on purpose, she’s just more comfortable with physical contact

2. Any sleep habits either had to get used to?

Jewel has a strict 10pm - 6am sleep schedule (maybe even 11pm if she’s feeling daring) while Tiara will stay out late and sleep in until the afternoon regularly. They’re both willing to make adjustments if they want to have breakfast together or something

3. Hot and Steamy or Soft and Tender?

Deep Fried, double sauced…wait we’re talking about chicken wings right?

4. How did they first meet?

Tiara heard through the rumor mill that THE restoration leader was not only efficient at recovering displaced people from the Metal Virus and is also an expert on gems so she made a mad dash to meet her to see if there were any possible leads she could get to finding her father. -She was a little disappointed that Jewel was much more petite and anxious than she was imagining but after getting to know her better she realized Jewel was just the person she needed to help her

Though Tiara doesn’t remember, Jewel actually saw Tiara first at some of her hangout places like the sports bar and the gym she secretly practices yoga at and thought Tiara was pretty. So when Tiara storms into her office demanding to see her Jewel’s thinking she must’ve died or is hallucinating. 

5. What is their love language?

Since Tiara can’t stay in a place too long, when she’s in town with Jewel she’ll spend as much time as she can with her. Even if it’s just restoration work or watching Jewel polish her gem collection.

Jewel’s softspoken but knows Tiara doesn’t like quiet, so she does her best to keep a conversation going or give Tiara the reaffirmation she might need 

6. When did they realize they loved each other? 

Tiara’s gem powers are tied to her emotions, she realized it was especially effective at breaking robots when she was protecting Jewel from a stray badnik. She had to stop and think about what the connection was and once she got it, she got it.

Jewel always was attracted to Tiara’s outgoing and friendly nature, she was at first kind of treating her the same way she does Tangle “oh I know this feeling. She’s just a friend. I just like her as a friend” but after catching Tiara’s mask slipping and realizing she’s a lot different than what she thought she started wanting to get to know the real Tiara more and then realized it was love after all darnit. 

7. Who is more sentimental?

Tiara, she’s stubborn about it, but everyone she’s made a connection with on her journey is so important to her, she’s learned to not take those relationships for granted.  

9. How are their personalities different?

Tiara is more likely to jump into a situation without thinking while Jewel is more likely to think it out first 

Jewel is more open to talking things out and getting to know people while Tiara is more likely to stay closed off

11. Which member is more physically affectionate? 

Tiara

12. Which member is more verbally affectionate?

Jewel

13. Which member steals borrows the other ones clothing?

Jewel's clothes are unfortunately too small for Tiara, but she has tried on one of her suit blazers to feel fancy when she wasn’t looking. 

14. Are they an introverted couple or an extroverted one—AKA would they prefer to go out to a party or event together or would they rather stay in? 

A little of both? Like they like going out and doing things together, but they’d prefer if it was in an intimate setting like a restaurant 

15. Who is more likely to make an impulsive decision and who is the voice of reason? 

Tiara impulsive, Jewel voice of reason. 9 times out of 10

16. Who stays up way too late and who tries to drag them to bed?

Jewel sticks to her sleep schedule, if Tiara wants to join her on time that’s up to her. No dragging required.

17. Who fell in love first?

Jewel

18. What song fits them perfectly?

I’m gonna say “Home and Dry” (Pet Shop Boys)

19. How do they deal with being away from each other for a long time?

Tiara’s started getting into sending postcards to Jewel on her travels when she’s at a new town (...do they have cell phones in Sonic’s world?)

Jewel’s been starting to get antsy about being tied to the restoration or her museum but tries to stay positive. She’s been paying more attention to local sports teams so she can catch Tiara up on what’s been happening while she’s away.

20. Who holds a grudge the longest?

Both are prone to holding grudges, but maybe Jewel? She will say that all is forgiven but a bug never forgets.

21. Which of the two is quick to speak and which one is quick to listen?

Tiara isn’t shy so if something’s on her mind she’ll just say it. Jewel’s a great listener

22. Who gets more easily embarrassed?

Jewel

23. Who overthinks the most?

Also Jewel

24. Which of the two is the most competitive?

Tiara. Girl will make a game out of putting laundry away.

25. Who’s the most stubborn?

Hmm…probably Tiara. She won't quit once her mind’s made up

26. How do they comfort each other?

If Jewel starts getting too anxious about something, Tiara will reassure that everything will be alright

If Tiara starts feeling lonely or sad about things Jewel will be open to talking if she wants or going anywhere Tiara wants to for the day

27. What random everyday object/activity makes them think of each other?

Chicken Wings…

28. Do they get along with each other’s friends and family?

Wherever Gazebo is right now I think he would like Jewel, sure.

Tangle likes Tiara a lot, Whisper tolerates Tiara,  Lanolin and Tiara do not get along. (Jewel doesn’t have a family so I guess the diamond cutters count lol)

30. What is their favorite place to kiss the other? (Cheek, hand, closed eyelid, neck, nose, etc.) 

Tiara treats Jewel very gently so on the cheek or the hand. 

Jewel found a sensitive spot behind Tiara’s ear, so there.

31. What’s the relationship like? Smooth? Rocky?

Smooth like mild wing sauce with ranch

32. How do they resolve their arguments?

Talking it out. Before they got serious Tiara was prone to just cutting off the conversation “It’s fine, it’s ok if this doesn’t work out. I’ll do this on my own anyway” kind of thinking. But now that they’re more of an item Tiara’s doing her best to not do that anymore.

33. Who has the most nightmares and how do they deal with them?

Tiara. And hugs.

34. Do they give each other nicknames?

Jewel is too self conscious (if this were a romance anime she’d be the type who thinks calling each other by first names or without honorifics is a huge step) and Tiara wants to be respectful so she doesn’t have anything in particular or say them in public but if they’re alone she’ll let “My Jewel” slip. 

35. What movies do they enjoy watching most? 

Historical dramas. Tiara wasn’t into it at first but then once she realized the drama actually got juicy and interesting she’s addicted. The more historically accurate the movie is the better for Jewel.

36. How’d they meet each other’s families?

Tiara started hanging out at the restoration HQ so her meeting Jewel’s friends was inevitable. 

37. What do they like the least about each other?

Both are prone to being a little jealous, so when that side of them comes out. 

38. What was their most memorable date?

Romantic getaway to do cave spelunking in the Mobian Alps. The quartz there are amazing

39. What other couple would your otp get along with the best?

Minako x Rei (Sailor Moon) maybe?

40. Who makes the other smile with almost no effort at all?

I think it’s mostly mutual. But Jewel being around can instantly perk up Tiara’s mood.

Care Bears: The Mystery of the Missing Dreams (1986) Book Scans

I found this book at a thrift store, which was a nice surprise because I haven’t had much luck finding picture books older than the late 90s/early 2000s (at the thrift stores near me, anyways).

It seems this book originally would have come with a cassette tape so you could read along with the recording.

I had to edit the front cover a bit because two names were written on it in permanent marker. One name was on the grey cloud and the other name was written above the Dream Thief.

Truthfully, one of my favorite parts of the book is in the front inside cover.

It's so old school. Do children's books still have an index of info for you to fill out in case you lose it?

It reminds me of being in grade school and having to fill out the front of your textbooks with your name, class number, and year. Do they still do that in school? I don't have children, and am not close to anyone who has children, so I have no idea what the textbook loaning procedure is like nowadays.

Do children even have textbooks anymore in grade school? They must…but I have no idea how digital classrooms have gotten in recent years.

Okay, I'm getting too off topic! Anyways.

The basic story of this book is that the Care Bears’ dreams suddenly go missing. With the help from the stars (the Care Bear Buddies), they find the dreams locked behind a door after having been stolen by the Dream Thief. The Care Bears befriend the Dream Thief and he unlocks the door, giving them their dreams back. The Dream Thief then becomes the Dream Detective, an assistant to the Care Bears. He now helps locate and return missing dreams, using his powers for good instead of evil.

It’s a cute little picture book. The story isn't anything intricate, I think the "conflict" happens for all of one page. And even then, it's just an "Aw darnit, you're right. Being evil is bad, so I'll be good now!"

It is a children's book though, I can't think too critically about its short, simple story.

The real draw of this book (for me) is the artwork. Here are a few pages that are just a pleasure to my eyes. The Care Bears are so cute!! I love their chubby cheeks, heart-shaped noses, and fluffy little tails.

Here are a couple two page art spreads from the book as well.

I uploaded the book to my Internet Archive account, so feel free to go read it for yourself! Even if you don’t want to read it for the story, the book is a charming flip-through of vintage Care Bears artwork.

I also have uploaded the above images on my nostaliga photoblog, so feel free to check that out too if you like just reblogging the images!

Thanks for reading!

[despair-to-future-arcs]

He’s taken.

Wait, what?! You...You mean you have a girlfriend!

Wh-What...?! Wh-Where do you get that idea from!

Because you say 'she' that means you got a girlfriend, uggggh that's so unfaaaair!

Whoa whoa, hang on; I mean... I wouldn't say she's my girlfriend or anything we're just...friends, I guess.

Friends...? So you do care for her, right?

We-Well I mean, yeah... we known each other since high school and I mean; she's cute but I'm just... trying to sort out somethings...

I mean, she's usually busy with Future Foundation and work so we haven't exactly sat down and talk...

And I guess there's always been this barrier between us, I mean I like her and all but she never really was honest and I think the tragedy didn't really help... y'know?

Wow, that's a bit complicated, huh? Well hey, if you ask me; maybe try and find a moment where you 2 can just...sit down and talk about this, you do like her, don't you?

Do I...like her...?

I...I mean, yeah I do; she probably was a good listener and listen to my complaints all the time or is very patient with me but it always felt like she couldn't tell me much of anything so I'm always left not knowing what she thinks.

I mean, I won't deny it; I'm a rather stubborn ass that tends to get in arguments and finds it hard to change my opinions but she always calms me down so yeah, maybe I do like her; I just... haven't exactly worded it right.

Well seems you do care for her a lot, well if ever comes the chance where she needs to vent; just let her, I'm sure she has her own complaints so try and listen, yeah?

Yeah... maybe so...

Hey, maybe I'll try that - thanks Maku.

Well hey, I mean - I never exactly had a girlfriend myself but hopefully it'll work out.

Damnit... there goes another hot guy, darnit...

Buuuut maybe I'll sketch him, heheheee~.

... (This girl is a huge pervert, I don't even think I even want to be with her at all, Nagi hope your done...)

[kin-the-muffin]

GUYS

WHY DO I KEEP NOT SEEING THINGS UNTIL THE DAY AFTER THEY COME

for those who are unaware:

I AM GOING TO HAVE A MENTAL BREAKDOWN

more of my screaming under the cut

ok so we’re starting right where we left off and OMIGOSH THE HUG I CANT HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

gus helping w the dishes is so sweet!! and amity omigosh this girl. not to mention camila is just taking it so coolly?? what am i saying, shes probably freaking out inside

I HAVE NEVER HATED A BAND-AID BOX IN MY ENTIRE LIFE AND I WILL NEVER DO SO MORE THAN I DO NOW IM GONNA CRY

hunter, bb, why would they hate you cuz youre a clone of caleb? that doesnt make you him. plus i dont actually think that caleb was ever a witch hunter in the first place. also, youre not helping luz. ily <3

why luz gotta blame herself, she couldn’t have ever known something like this would happen. and im not sure how time travel works in the owl house but id be willing to bet that even if she hadnt helped philip, he would have found someone else willing to be monster bait instead of her and lilith

‘we’ll tell them, when we’re ready’ girl that aint ever gonna happen. the way things go when ppl say stuff like that is that the thing gets pushed off until the characters cant help but slam right into it, no countermeasures to soften the blow. i am very worried about how this is gonna affect willow and amity.

AMITY’S LINGERING GAZE ON LUZ MA HEART AAAAAAA

ik there were some people who were worried that the gang wasnt gonna be ok with vee so im glad that they like her :)

well, glad to know that the philip-goo is, in fact, alive. screw that

gus nerding-out with all of the stuff in the basement XD (also camila why is there so much random stuff in your basement? 👀)

HUNTER NO STOP WHY WOULD YOU- UGH I THOUGHT YOU WERE GETTING OVER THIS

hunters little smile at gus :>

amity and willow protecting vee from the alarm clock, i cant- *wheeze*

WAIT IS WILLOW WEARING A SHIRT WITH A SHOOTING STAR?????? YALL KNOW DANA DID THAT FOR ALEX YALL KNOW IT

CAMILA’S RAINBOW HEART STICKER

VEE’S LITTLE TRANSITION WAS SO CUTE

HUNTER

MY DUDE

WHY DID YOU EVEN LET YOUR HAIR GET THAT LONG

AND WHY DO YOU HAVE THAT BOOK

(our first real look at caleb???)

OK BUT SERIOUSLY HE LOOKS SO GOOD WITH THAT NEW HAIRCUT I’LL ADMIT I WAS WORRIED BUT THEY PULLED IT OFF!

idk what they were doing but the portal kinda worked for a second, before it, yknow, combusted

what even is that blob, i dont even wanna try to guess whats in it (THEY ALL LOOK SO PROUD OF THEMSELVES, MY BABIES)

amity’s look of wonder at the rain, my beloved <3<3

im so happy they got to have some fun after all the trauma, they really needed it

do i even need to say anything about luz and amity in the rain

luz’s drawing skills have gotten so much better!!! (dat trauma tho. the depression that she cant have everything she wants in one world. in the human realm, she has her mom and vee but in the demon realm, she can do magic and has her best friends (and gf) and eda and king)

looks like her palisman has yet to arrive :(

darnit shes back at school (i wonder how she figured that all out)

thank you for coming to my ted talk, now back to your regularly-scheduled reblogs

[broccoliboix5peepeeman]

so shoto has strict diet right? Because of his father, because I imagine he can't have a sweets or junk food , so shoto opens up to midorya about it, and midorya is like oh my god my sweet peppermint baby (midoriya spoil boyfriend intensifies) so after school is over. midorya made a plan to spoil him with so much food, midorya saying "Todoroki-kun as your boyfriend I will not allow you to starve and let you not go to waste!" And shoto laughs but he agrees (like hori let shoto eat junk food dangit😤) so midorya and shoto gose over to midorya house and midorya feeds him and shoto smiles while midorya spoils him rotten with food , after few min later shoto is happy and satisfy and is in a food coma and midorya is in awe and is very happy about the result (midorya is like my future hubby is so cute I can't wait to spoil him more but he doesn't say that out loud thankfully) so midoriya snuggles laying on shoto and shoto saying "hmm you didn't have to do that midorya". But you can tell he actually enjoyed being spoiled and he's not good at hiding it and Midorya says " hehe oh hush you you did enjoy it I see that smile on your face" and for once shoto agrees and then The peppermint boy kisses him on the lips saying "yeah I did.....thank you midorya I love you and then shoto falls asleep and then midoriya following suit to fall asleep and then midorya says before he goes out like a light 'hahah love you too....Todoroki-kun" and they both snuggle happily and satisfied together

(I know shoto only eat soba but common let my boi eat junk food and dessert gosh darnit! TWT)

😭😭😭

This is so adorable! Everyone calls Shoto spoilt because he's a rich kid... but only Izuku really knows the truth Bk doesn't count. Yes, Shoto grew up rich ("what do you mean you don't know how a hoover works?"), but he was by no means spoilt. So, Izuku loves pampering his boyfriend, because if anyone deserves it, it's Shoto. 💕

[nurtleteckye]

tourettic izuku and dadmight returns

yagi has a tic as well but its not very noticeable (and i gave myself his tic while i was drawing this gosh darnit lmao)

Yagi: "Yaknow, kid, I have a tic too. Not related to any tic disorder, just a chronic one. Probably from anxiety.

Izuku: YOU DO? (Holy CRAP ALL MIGHT has tics?? I've never met another person with tics before and to think the first one would be THE All Might!!?)

Yagi: Yeah. First I have to scrunch up my face, then move my mouth to the right, and always in that order.

Izuku: Oooh, I have some similar ones. Has anyone ever noticed yours?

Yagi: Not really. But there was this one time when a reporter told me he thought it was really cute. I don't see it, though.

Izuku: Hm. I get teased a lot for my tics. Or told that I'm faking it.

and thats all i got done before i fell asleep because i made this whole thing at night lol

i’ll do more parts later on

-Mod Souda

❤ He just be saying shit sometimes. There is a certain trait of his that you had to learn about through experience. He won't realize that something he said is offensive until he sees your reaction. Words slip from his mouth all the time, and sometimes he can catch them before he finishes his sentence (as in, he's offended you with it before, and he's learning his lesson).

❤ When he finally says something that really irritates you, the first thing you do is squint at him. Is he going to take it back? Is he going to apologize after he realizes his audacity?

❤ But no, he just continues.

❤ I don't think he'll notice the silent treatment until like a the next day ngl.

❤ He'll be like "oh they must not be in a good mood," and then google what to do and it'll be like give them space and he's like okay!!!

❤ And then it doesn't get better and he's like wait I think they mad at me...

❤ He will like be awkwardly scratching the back of his neck trying to figure out if he should approach you or not. Like literally, that's what he's doing, and you can see him in the corner of your eye.

❤ He'll like leave some snack out on the kitchen counter with a small note that says sorry :( in his sloppy handwriting. That's his first move.

❤ He is like - what do they do in the movies? Is he supposed to buy flowers?

❤ What flowers should he buy?

❤ He does not end up buying the flowers but god was he thinking about it.

❤ He mostly focuses on brainstorming. If words cause the problem then maybe words will help solve it?

❤ He still leaves tiny things around that he knows you like along with notes.

❤ He decides that if those won't work then he will just confront you and apologize.

❤ The thought of making you more upset is what lingers in his mind so that's what prevents him from apologizing immediately. Give them space, give them space, give them space. That's all that's in his head.

❤ When he finally does apologize he does so by walking up to you, trying to make it look like everything is perfectly fine. He tries to look confident but it doesn't work. You can see sympathy written all over his face (at least!).

❤ He stumbles over his words a little, which you think is cute. You honestly get a bit prideful seeing how much he cares about you, he obviously feels very bad.

❤ "It's okay," you say. "It's perfectly fine. Thank you for apologizing."

❤ When your hand cups his cheek, he absolutely melts. He missed your touch so much.

❤ He smiles and wraps his hands around your chest, bringing you in and pressing kisses to your cheek, his pecks trailing up your temples and to your forehead. "Thank you so much!"

❤ "What are you thanking me for?"

❤ He pauses. "I don't know."

❤ After rolling your eyes, you grab his face and press a kind kiss to his lips.

“Look, Mr. Frodo! The pansies are bloomin’. It’s like they knew you’d be here.”

GASP! What is this?? Color??? Yeah so I actually have a set of professional-grade color pencils that I like. Never use. So I’m not very good at it. But this turned out all right so I’m feeling good about sharing it.

Idk anything about flower language but Sam being a flower nerd is cute, darnit, leave me alone X-D Pansies are one of the few flowers that bloom in the wintertime, so they’re one of the plants the hobbits might encounter during Frodo’s recovery in Rivendell. They’re symbols of platonic love, affection, and deep thinking, and are often used as get-well flowers. Yellow represents happiness, orange represents optimism, and blue represents loyalty and honesty.

Photo under the cut of before I colored the hobbits so their expressions are more clear.

Not SamFro!

The cats keep bopping at the knitting basket and having yarnballs come out of it. Its cute.

Quinn: *bap bap bap bap*

Penny decided to visit the urns.

...They can't actually break these right? I know sims can but... If one of the pets destroyed Mary's urn or anyone's really, I would probably cry.

Also I forgot to have a couple's photo between Blue Belle and Marcus until today! Also darnit I left Blue Belle in her cold weather outfit. Ah well they're still cute together.

We really need a proper photo booth setup either in the house or at a different lot. I keep saying I'll fix it and then I forget about it again lol.

Right back atcha! 🖤 Your posts are always stunning!

I’m just mad at myself that it took me this long! It never occurred to me that I could just make dragons as magic brooms, until I saw the Burn the Witch anime last year. And I’ve been yelling at EA for years for not making rideable dragons, when the answer was right there the whole time. (－‸ლ)

Shane + cuddling

I love this sweet boy and if you don’t think he likes to cuddle you are w r o n g

Before you start dating, he does not like physical contact; he didn’t get much love from either of his parents, so he’s just not used to it

(Plus, he has some self-esteem issues and doesn’t want other people, especially someone he might be crushing on, to think he’s gross)

(But the joke’s on him because he is a literal teddy bear and that chub he hates is PERFECT cuddling material)

But when you start dating, especially if it’s a chilly night, ofc you’re going to want to snuggle

You will definitely have to initiate cuddling the first time, and he’ll probably stiffen up because he’s uncomfortable

So you might want to keep it brief

(Even though he’s so perfect and warm oh my stars)

Eventually, he’ll get more relaxed about it, but it’ll take some time

The first time he initiates it, you’re chilling on the couch together watching a Tunnelers game and he just kind of puts his arm on the back of the couch

And you’re like oh my stars is this finally happening

So you scooch over a little closer and when he doesn’t seem upset, you immediately crawl halfway into his lap as you nuzzle his chest

And you want to start crying when he moves that arm from the back of the couch to hold you closer and you peek up and see that he’s blushing just the tiniest bit and dear god no one has a right to smile so cutely

And after that, I sure hope you don’t mind snuggling, because he can’t get enough

You’re watering plants when he walks by? Prepare to get attacked in the warmest, softest hug from behind

You’re feeding the chickens? Hope they don’t mind PDA, because he’s going to be holding Charlie in one arm and you in the other as he goes on and on about the cute things the chickens are doing

You’re cooking dinner (because you live on a farm and gosh darnit you’re not going to let the man you love keep eating that frozen crap all the time)? He’s not a cook, or a slut, but hey - what an excuse to come up behind you and press his body into yours under the guise of “helping cut the veggies”

And if you’re at a point where you’re sharing a bed, lol good luck in summer, because he Can. Not. Sleep. if he’s not half-on top of you

(And you love every second of it)

Episode 34 arrives and it’s a MUCH NEEDED breath of first air. I mean, this episode could have actually BEEN a 99 Adventure episode. I guess at least one person on the production team has actually seen the old show at least once!

In my opinion, it doesn’t quite equal the cuteness, silliness, and personality of similar 99 episodes, but it comes very close, and it’s certainly the best we’ve had in a long long while.

And it’s all because of these two.

More below!

The episode bizarrely begins with Tailmon barking to communicate with Komondomon. Which raises the question, if no one could talk with Komondomon before because he can only bark, how were they communicating? Did Lopmon just tell Komondomon everything he needed to know and tell the kids “just follow his lead” or something??

Also Tailmon’s opening line being her barking is pretty surreal. And yet, fitting for a cat Digimon who is a dog at Child level.

The kids are shown taking a break - the first sign that this episode is gonna be A Bit Different.

Taichi: Something feels weird. Why aren’t we fighting?

Sora: Taichi, don’t you think you should rest once in a while?

Taichi: I mean, I do, I just got the impression the rest of the world didn’t agree...

Sora: By the way, why do we like this world that constantly tries to kill us and never gives us any pleasant memories so much? Why don’t we just take our partners to the human world and leave this place to its fate?

Taichi: How else am I gonna get an outlet for my pent up aggression and adrenaline junkie issues?

Sora: That’s your backstory?

Taichi: I’m a complicated man.

Komondomon then randomly jumps... into the sea. “Oh no, they’ll drown!” No, they won’t, because Komondomon has the ability to build a dome over his back trapping oxygen inside. Submarimon I get, but Komondomon?

As they dive, Tailmon explains what we learned last week about Millenniumon trying to resurrect himself with a new body. Apparently a very large fragment of him is located undersea in a place called Farga (transliteration TBA). She thinks resentfully about how she was almost absorbed into Millenniumon’s most recent resurrection effort.

Hikari tackles her with a comforting hug, which Tailmon seems a bit discomfited by. But does not object.

Tailmon considers defeating Millenniumon for good to be her personal mission as a Holy Digimon. Patamon sees her determination and does his best to put on his game face too. It’s like being glared at by a sock puppet.

Tailmon: I can’t allow Hikari to be put in danger. It’s my job as the Holy Digimon -

Tailmon: - gosh darnit and she’s just so cute too!

They wind up getting hit by a rip current or something?? and thrown into another weird submarine sort of thing. They discourteously break a hole in it and wind up inside a self-sustaining underwater kingdom, apparently, which instantly goes on Red Alert as Manbomon come to attack them.

This is Daipenmon, or Big Penguin Monster. I love him. He is glorious. Gaze upon his expression of perpetually stoned haze.

Daipenmon: You try steering this thing every day in and out nonstop without turning to hard drugs.

She attac!

While fighting, some Mantaraymon break in through the hole they made and the Manbomon go to drive them off as apparently they are not welcome. Then MarineAngemon appears in all her creepy glory and they sort everything out.

MarineAngemon: Oh, Tailmon, I see you’re a Holy Digimon! I can tell by your Holy Ring. I have one too.

Takeru: Patamon, why don’t you have a Holy Ring?

Patamon: .... -.-’

Look! See! So cute! They are floating on bubbles! All the kids get their own and each has an individual design that shows their personality. Here Tailmon tries desperately to keep Hikari from falling off. I missed this kind of thing! Flashbacks to Monzaemon’s Toytown...

Turns out MarineAngemon is extremely small and the scene before was all “don’t pay attention to that man behind the curtain” type scare tactics. Not very effective since no matter how big MarineAngemon gets, she’s still extremely adorable. She invites them to stay the night. I really expected it to be a trap, but it wasn’t.

OH MY GOD IS THAT FOOD ARE THEY EATING ACTUAL FOOD OMG OMG

quick someone alert the producers! Someone’s having FUN with this show! I was starting to think that was illegal or something!

It’s not AS fun as when they went to Devimon’s illusory castle in 99 Adventure and stuffed their faces after starving and living on potentially poisonous eggs for a week... but I’ll take it.

Meanwhile an undersea band plays music and Taichi ACTS LIKE THE FIFTH GRADE CHILD THAT HE IS. For about 0.5 seconds but HEY he did something child-like! holy cheez wiz batman!

Hikari is mysteriously absent so Tailmon goes to find her. Turns out she’s asked MarineAngemon to heal Komondomon who is tired and wounded from their journey. Tailmon’s like, “Aw, what a nice person she is.” I’m all for exceptionally kind-hearted Hikari, but taking care of Komondomon should have been priority 1 for EVERYONE. At least Sora should have thought of it. I can see Taichi being too forward-focused, and Takeru a dumb eight year old, but Sora would definitely have thought about Komondomon.

Clearly the show wanted to establish how nice Hikari is, but I hate when shows inadvertently make all the other characters look like asses just to trump up the current star...

Taichi’s digivice glows and...

... MINI KOUSHIROU RETURNS!!! Hurray!

Um, what’s that Sora’s drinking? A mimosa? o.O

Well anyway, Koushirou just shows up to remind everyone of the situation with the satellites and that things are getting worse.

Taichi: Do you have any idea what we can do about it?

Koushirou: No, but I’ll keep you posted.

Taichi: Thanks for nothing braindead

Koushirou: That’s it! You’re not the man I knew in episode 3 anymore! I want a divorce!

Taichi: Fine with me it’s not like you’re ever home anyway!

Koushirou: Well at least I’m not cheating with YAMATO!

Taichi: I HAVE NEEDS!

*cough*

Uh, I know Taichi is shorter than Sora, but he looks... pretty tiny here... lol. Or maybe Sora’s just had a growth spurt again.

They spend the night sleeping in bubbles. Aw.

By the way, question: the kids seem able to walk and breath normally in MarineAngemon’s kingdom... but the fish-type Digimon can also swim around normally. And it seems the kids wouldn’t be able to survive in the ocean itself, but they and the fish can both survive here? And yet bubbles? What... what kind of scientific anomaly is this place??

So... MarineAngemon’s kingdom appears to be a Whamon’s corpse! X’D Wow that’s dark.

They are attacked by Anomalocarimon! For reasons. Actually, they did explain earlier that the ocean Digimon have been more aggressive lately and it seems to be the influence of Millenniumon’s stone in Farga or whatever.

Daipenmon: This sucks I don’t have health insurance

Tailmon frantically tries to fight off the intruders while also keeping Hikari out of danger. This entire episode is about Tailmon wanting to protect Hikari and keep her at arm’s length so she doesn’t end up in danger, while Hikari just keeps trying to stay close to Tailmon and support her.

Tailmon: I can’t take you with me, Hikari. It’s too dangerous.

Hikari: Fine. Big brother, will you bring me into the heat of the action with you?

Taichi: Sure thing.

Tailmon: ...

In his defense, Taichi does seem a bit freaked when Hikari TAKES A FLYING LEAP off MetalGreymon toward Tailmon.

(no I really love that Taichi immediately understands why Hikari wants to fight and takes her right to her partner without even a token “nuu but you’re still a baby.” I mean, if Yamato’s cool with Takeru being in danger all the time, Taichi shouldn’t be much worried about it...

Hikari has a flashback! Turns out she’s heard Tailmon calling for her since she as a little kid!

She caught one of Angewomon’s feathers back then too.

Hikari promises Tailmon that she’ll be by her side. Awww.

Hands again.

Crest of Light! I kind of expect that we’ll find out about the Crests and what they mean really fast at the end of the season... although I’m still kind of hoping Mimi is mining Crest crystals atm.

Hikari is able to magically produce a Digivice... I’d completely forgot she didn’t have one till now.

Here I expected Tailmon would evolve, but instead, the power of Light appears to give everyone a power boost like it’s done in the past. They all glow with their Crest colors, kids and partners alike (except for some reason Tailmon glows yellow???) and launch a joint attack on Anomalocarimon and defeat him. Yay.

Then they say goodbye to MarineAngemon and go on their way, I guess to Farga.

So... yeah! it was a nice episode. It had a theme. There was fighting, but it didn’t overwhelm everything else. There was character development. I really can’t complain about it. And it was SHOCKING that Taichi had so few lines (compared to what’s become the norm - a GOOD shock but still I was like “omg what’s going on!!”)

I am just confused because why is this sort of episode happening when we haven’t seen it in ages? What happened in that interim between when they all met up after the first team split up and just now that prevented the show writers from having fun with the show and just writing nonstop fighting all the time? I’m so confused. It makes no sense. Still suspecting that they couldn’t get anyone to come in and voice characters for long enough so they just focused on Sanpei Yuuko/Taichi, but without the others they couldn’t figure out how to push the show forward and make it fun too... Idk. It’s so weird. But oh well. We got a good episode, and maybe it’s a sign of changes to come. I hope so.

Next week...

We get attacked by a scary looking Digimon and Hikari... Idk, thinks she can block the attack somehow? haha. Aw but look how awesome she is protecting her brother and Greymon!

Hikari gets touched by the dark powers! Oh noes!

And more cuteness.

The episode title name-drops Angewomon, which surprises me because I figured they’d hold off on her and give Tailmon Nefertimon for an evolution first. But *shrug* whatever! Looking forward to it.

Mysterylover watches Bleach Episodes 140-141

mysterylover123

1. So there’ve been like a billion Bleach analysis vids dropped in the last week. I was curious enough to check them out, but did my best to make sure I skipped past spoilers. That was interesting, especially since they dispelled a bunch of myths about the show (like getting ‘cancelled’ or ‘falling in popularity’), and validated something I’ve kinda begun to suspect: Namely, that Bleach is actually kinda good and most of the  critiques of it are things that are problems with any Shounen. Which is neat. Got me plenty hyped for this episode. 

2. Darnit we’re starting out with Ura’s fight. I’m still mad at you Ura. 

3. Rangi is so fiesty. Kick their asses Rangi! Also: So Hitsu is a full on WaterBender?! Damn that’s cool.

4. Oh Damn back to Ichi vs GJ. Ichi’s gonna get fucked up this time, I just know it. He’s so screwed. Thank god he’s a Shonen protag or I’d be worried he’d be dead. 

5. RUKIA WITH THE RESCUE!!!! YAS!!!! GO RUKIA VS GJ ROUND TWO. And Ruki Ices him up good and quick, then saves Ichi from being all bound. She’s awesome. I kinda have the feeling turning her back on frozen GJ is a bad idea. HE’s gonna pop outta that ice any minute now...

6.th YUP THERE HE GOES. GRabs Ruki’s head and looks like he’s sucking out her energy, only for...something to get in the way? OK who’s here to save Ruki now? (seriously we’ve got such a circle of saving). OK it’s uh...(checks subtitles) Shinji. Blond guy. OK. I guess he’s cool now.

7. So Shinji’s gonna fight GJ instead huh. DAmmit that’s so much more boring than Ruki fighting him. 

8. Wow GJ’s actually scared of Shinji huh? And damn that was a pretty big blast. Hope GJ’s not dead, he’s still a cool villain. LOL and Ichi and Ruki just stand there watching like ‘damn’. 

9. GJ yelling Damn really makes him seem like this show’s Vegeta. Like the badass villain rival whose role is to get his ass kicked all the time and be mad about it.

10. ULQUIORRA?!?! WTF WHY ARE YOU HERE? WHY ARE YOU INTERFERING IN THIS FIGHT? not that I’m complaining. I mean more Ulqui is always good. But wow they just left like that. Cause they  already got Orihime so they don’t need to bother with any of these losers I guess.

11. So Arrancars ascend through their light columns while Ulqui thinks judge-y thoughts about Ichi while flashing back to capturing Hime. Cause again, they’ve got her so they win. 

12. OOH Ulqui gave Hime a Phaser/Invisible bracelet huh? She can say goodbye to one person? (I’m going to guess it’ll be Ichigo, though my heart wants it to be Tatsuki). And damn there’s some serious Phantom of the Opera vibes in this sequence, huh? Hey, he is letting her say goodbye and spend 12 hours getting chores ready for everyone. That’s something. Most anime villain kidnappers are not that considerate.

13. Invisible Orihime sequence! And Phasing! Damn it’s like being a ghost. Spooky.  

14. THAT DOOF SAID TATSUKI’S NAME. AND HIME HEARD AND FREKED OUT OMG. SAY GOODBYE TO TASUKI HIME. DO IT DO IT DO IT!!! OMG SAD TATSUHIME MONTAGE. YAS WELCOME BACK TO THE FOLD

15. Tatsuki be looking right at Hime even though Hime’s invisible. That’s some serious soulmates stuff. 

16. Sad Ichigo & Rukia scene next, as of course the minute Hime disappears nobody can heal him right away. Damn they’re gonna lose their white mage healer this arc! Without Hime the squad is gonna be so screwed, they’re  worse than Deku at avoiding getting injured.

17. OOH this guy described his powers as being like a ‘time reversal’. Is that how Hime’s powers work too? DOES SHE HAVE ERI’S POWERS?! (or maybe not since Eri doesn’t talk to fairies).

18. Rukia immediately tries to reassert her position as Hime’s main femslash pairing by worrying about her and ditching the injured Ichigo to go find her. Even though she’s hungry and Ichi’s nice sisters have dinner ready for her. 

19. I like how Ichi’s family has just kinda accepted that Ruki now lives in Ichi’s room. Like, it’s just the way things are.

20. ORIHIME KITTY PRYDES HER WAY THROUGH THE WALL. She’s picking Ichi? darnit. Ah well. OK let’s see whatcha got for Ichi, Hime. She lists all her ships to make sure we know she still remembers them. 

21. She’s sweet about Ichi’s sisters spending the night! And gets embarassed about being in his bedroom. This sequence is so wholesome. (except the “your scent” line wtf hime you been memorizing that?) Anyway, she puts her hand on his. 

22. DON’T KISS HIM WHILE HE’S UNCONSCIOUS HIME!! GUY CAN’T CONSENT IF YOU DO THAT!! Anyway we get a cute IchiHime montage, to make sure we’ve covered all the main Hime shipping bases this episode. And thank god her tears wake him up before she can kiss him unconsciously. 

23. DAMMIT HIME YOU’RE GONNA MAKE ME CRY. She wanted to do all this stuff. Damn she likes sweets huh? oh god she’s gonna make me start bawling. She wants to live 5 lives. “I would have fallen in love with the same person five different times” HOLY SHIT HIME. You are smooth. That’s a hell of a line. 

24. “goodbye halcyon days”.

[mshomestyle]

So Aizawa's 6'0....Present Mic is 6'1.....All Might is around 7'0? And Hawks is 5'8... What if they had an S/O who was somewhere under average height...? I mean, short readers are always requested, but I mean these dudes are giants 👀 (Not so much on Hawks, but hey he's over 5'5-)

3You are so right, though! Like I wrote a story about pro-hero Izuku, whom I imaged to be really big and just imagining even an average height reader with him would be a huuuge height difference! So, writing stuff for a shorty reader will be (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞ I’m all over it!

These tall guys (and our average bird boy, Hawks!) with an under average height S/O:

Picture for Reference~.

(Aizawa, Present Mic, All Might, & Hawks)

Aizawa (6′0ft, ~183cm):

-Your height difference is something that Aizawa doesn’t actively point out. He’s real cool about things, and you only both really address it when the activities you do or things in your day to day life point it out.

“Darnit...,” you mutter to yourself as you get up on your tippy toes, trying to reach a pot in your kitchen cabinet. As this is happening, Aizawa walks into the room casually, eyes immediately going to what you’re doing.

‘Oh, that’s right...,’ he thinks to himself as he walks over and gets the pot for you.

-He doesn’t mind leaning down to kiss you, and he isn’t the type to ever tease you about how short you are in comparison to him.

Present Mic (6′1ft, ~185cm):

-Present Mic is definitely aware of the height difference, and he finds it incredibly cute. He’ll be the one to lean his head down and onto you when you’re out in public (if possible that is.)

-He loves to pick you up, and he also can’t help but to just dote on you as much as possible.

-Mic also absolutely loves to get things for you that you can’t reach. “Don’t worry, baby, I got it!” He walks over to you as you were trying to grab a blanket from the hall closet. Mic gets it for you with ease then kisses the top of your head.

-You’ll have to tell him to stop multiple times if you don’t like his treatment towards you. He can’t help himself, though, Mic really likes having an S/O that’s shorter than him. (Not that he wouldn’t like a tall one, though!)

All Might (7′0ft, ~213cm Mother effer that’s giant!):

-Having an S/O in general, especially a short one, is something that All Might is going to have to get used to, and him being as tall as he is is something you’ll have to get used to, too.

“Again?” you whine as you go into the laundry room to wash some clothes “Yagi!” you yell, and within seconds, All Might arrives.

“I am here! Are you okay?” Wordlessly and with slight agitation, you point at the top shelf in the room. “What is it?” he asks. Again, you point. Your dignity might have taken a hit, but your pride wasn’t about to go down with it. “Huh?” All Might stares at the shelf until a light bulb goes off in his head. “Oh! I’m so sorry, [Name]!” He quickly apologizes before taking the laundry detergent off of the high shelf and handing it to you. “I wasn’t thinking when I was saving it.” You’re still fuming a bit, but you get on with the laundry.

-All Might is really respectful towards you and doesn’t do things like that on purpose. He does, however, delight in the fact that you can so easily fit into his lap. He loves to have you there, leaning against him and purring because of his touch on you as he runs his hand through your hair. It’s a nice bonding moment.

-Your height makes it a bit difficult to go about with him in public, especially when there are adoring fans. You easily get lost in the sea of them, but after a few times of that happening, All Might will hold onto your hand and not let go.

Hawks (5′8ft, ~173cm):

-All of the short jokes

-All of the teasing

-Prepare for this boy to do things like patting you on the head, picking you up at times to hug or kiss you, and pulling you onto his lap every chance he gets.

You could be minding your own business doing something like the dishes with him, or grocery shopping, etc., and unprompted Keigo will say, “Need me to get something for you, babe?” Half because he thinks it’s cute (and a little amusing) and half because he genuinely wants to help.

“I’m fine,” you tell him, waving it off. If the teasing and jokes do bother you, he will stop because your comfort comes first.

-Speaking of comfort, Hawks loves to spoon you at night. He’ll hold you close, kiss your head, and tuck you under his chin.
