"The best part of being fat is being soft and comfy to cuddle with" "The best part of being fat is knowing people like you for your personality and not your looks" Wrong. The best part of being fat is getting to swim in ice-cold water for FAR longer than my peers. My skinny friends can barely last 10 minutes in the pacific ocean without losing feeling in their fingers meanwhile i can be in there for HOURS. I was born to swim in glacial lakes and icemelt streams. Also I float.

I love the college of winterhold. everyone there is casually deranged and there's like an alarming number of students and staff who threaten you immediately when they meet you. it's always one of the first questlines I do. which makes it even funnier when you get made the arch-mage of the college. I'm level 12 and got through this questline knowing exactly 3 spells. what do you mean you want me to lead the college. this school CANNOT be an accredited institution

someone needs to grab me by my neck and stop me from making a meta post about idw soundwave and the cassettes and about how his insistence that they are equals (or at least some of them are equals) is in direct contradictory with how he actually interacts with them/how their dynamic is written throughout idw. because as much as i do think they are generally a group that cares and relies on each other (minus ratbat, who has 0 reason to gaf about any of them and vice versa), i,,, ough. its messy.
i do not think this is a weird character writing moment, i actually think it's SUPER interesting to think and talk about. but i can't,, i shan't,,, unless āœļøšŸ‘€

I donā€™t think ppl give enough credit to rui for his dedication to fucking with people (outside of tsukasa of course) like. Knowing & acknowledging that nene wants nothing to do with him and Tsukasa on her first day of second year and deliberately following tsukasa to loudly ask if sheā€™s getting along with people (just to be a jackass)? Implying his gift to akito will explode even though it wonā€™t bc he wants to bug akito? Like I think rui at his core is full of love and a desire to make ppl smile but I also think heā€™s 200% committed to the bit first and foremost. If something will be funny heā€™s going to do it regardless of the consequences. Guy filled with zero social anxiety & a never ending desire to embarrass his friends.

Deeva ƅrud - Club Wear Voice Lines
When Summoned: Lights dimmed, tension building upā€¦ Are you ready to feel our rhythm? Summon Line: Playing music with friends is fun, Iā€™m glad to be here even though Iā€™m starting to feel a bit nervous.
Groooovy!!: Weā€™d be delighted to see you at our next show. Spotting a familiar face among the crowd is always nice. Home: ā€œLetā€™s rock and rollā€, as some would say. Home Idle 1: I joined the Pop Music Club on my second year. Perhaps itā€™s quite a drastic change from my previous club butā€¦ itā€™d be a lie to say Iā€™m not enjoying my time here. Home Idle 2: Most of the time Iā€™m the one suggesting we should practice, but somehow Lilia, Cater and Kalim always distract me with all these unknown snacks and gadgets. Sometimes I have the feeling they do it on purposeā€¦ Home Idle 3: I need to warm my hands, itā€™s hard playing an instrument when theyā€™re cold. Home Idle ā€“ Login: *humming Piece of My World* Ah- sorry, I didnā€™t see you there. Can I help you with something? Home Idle ā€“ Groovy: Iā€™ve been playing violin and other instruments since I was a kid. My family has always had a connection with music and Iā€™ll gladly continue this legacy. Conveying your thoughts and feelings through sounds is quite satisfactory. Home Tap 1: My first concert with them? Since it was the first time Iā€™d be playing in front of many people, I knew Iā€™d have a hard time trying to look at the audience. Cater noticed and told me to look at him so I could feel less overwhelmedā€¦ Letā€™s say I didnā€™t expect him to be so literal. His clones substituted the audience because no one came to see us. Home Tap 2: Hm, my violin? Indeed, itā€™s not the same one I use at Mostro Lounge. An electric violin is more suitable for the clubā€™s activities. Iā€™m surprised you noticed it. That means someoneā€™s been paying too much attention to the musician playing ambience musicā€¦ That was a joke. Home Tap 3: Kalim and I joined the club in the same year so I got to see how much heā€™s improved his drumming technique. Itā€™s impressive. Certainly, Liliaā€™s been an excellent teacher to him. Home Tap 4: I like the idea of having customized masks for our performances. Maybe I should mention it once we have enough funds. Home Tap 5: I recently accepted to do some vocals just for our club sessions. You can come see us, but please refrain from telling everyone else. At the moment, I only feel comfortable singing for a few people. Home Tap ā€“ Groovy: When it comes to a band like this many wouldnā€™t think of a violinist, but that actually gives songs an interesting feeling, donā€™t you think? Duo: [DEEVA]: Ready for a shocking performance, Cater? [CATER]: Ready as ever, Dee-chan!

There are VERY few shows that are truly an ensemble main cast, as usually there is one character who is front and center. In group shots, in overarching narrative, etc.
Code Lyoko is definitely an ensemble cast though. You can make a compelling argument for every one of the main characters that they are THE primary character.
Jeremie is sort of a a shoe in as the the guy who started this whole thing. He turned on the super computer. And his role as "Guy in the chair" is never presented like some supporting cast role. He's constantly working to help fix whatever is going on, and whatever Jeremie is doing is usually the most important part of the plot. He's even blue. He''s just visually in official art, often to the side (though not always) on account of his lack of a Lyoko form's been central in some official art, but he's also been known to be off to the side or excluded altogether, since he doesn't participate in the cool sci-fi battles in the virtual world so he's really not cool from a marketing perspective. He doesn't have main character vibes so to speak, but they could tell me he's the main protagonist and I'd believe it.
Aelita is a late addition to the cast, not literally in show, but in development, not appearing in Garage Kids or the earlier short film, The Children Make Their Movies. However, the main plot of code lyoko is hinged on her and her backstory. She's the one who was trapped in the super computer, whose father built it, whose mother was kidnapped. She's not passive in her life either. She's the most important person on Lyoko, where most of the action takes place because her father gave her the keys to Lyoko, making her the only one who can do certain things. The one who must be protected.
For the first part of the show, when she's confined to Lyoko she and Jeremie have alternate roles. Aelita, the most important special powerful person on Lyoko (but unable to leave it). Jeremie, the most important person outside of Code Lyoko who acts as the eyes in the sky and programs things into Code Lyoko (and outside of it). The very thing giving them main protag potential also being an argument against that status for a show focusing on school drama and virtual world fights. On the other hand this leaves the trio of Ulrich, Yumi and Odd, who ultimately all don't have the same amount of personal investment in Lyoko, so the show wouldn't completely fall apart without them, but they still have their own traits that make them "main charactery".
Odd seems like he was almost the main character once, though not so much anymore. He's the new guy, the most extroverted and with a unique skillset (being a cat boy apparently) with the weirdly implemented, potentially but not really OP power of precognition. When Code Lyoko was still "Garage Kids", him being the new guy was seemingly more plot relevant as everyone else was in on "Xanadu" before he was introduced, and was front and center on the poster, giving the vibes that he was the main character. He's also got a dog that he snuck into school. Generally he just is not the center of the plot, and and outside of animal themed shows purple cat boys isn't something that makes you think "main character".
Ulrich is probably the closest to the expected lead character. He's just a dude. He's the everyman. He's not great at school and is the star athlete. He's the guy whose at the center of the shows main love triangle (which gets turned into a love zigzag later with him still involved in both triangles. He often gets to be front and center (in virtual form) in promotional material, but so do the rest of teammates. His associated colors are green and yellow, neither of which are ever strongly with leaders. He foils Odd, as his quiet and grumpy attitude is one usually more reserved for the edgy deuteragonist, complete with a harsh and demanding father.
Yumi is probably the one with the weakest argument. But she's still the character who is in the center of the group shot at the end of the first opening so there is still definitely an argument to be made. She's also the only day student and thus her family drama is the most prevalent, which is kinda a protagy thing to do. Her Lyoko color is red which along with blue is usually one of the central protag colors. But really, she and Ulrich go together, and the two form a sort of dual protagonist situation within the ensemble. The main argument is probably just that she's too she's too busy playing that role to be main protag. She's at the center of the shows second love triangle which is an extension of the first that centered Ulrich. She's a martial artist on par with Ulrich. Not to mention she and Ulrich both have Japanese themed forms and some official art places her on par with Ulrich in the center. She just doesn't have Ulrich's "everyman" qualities. In fact she has kind of "othering" qualities such as being the token minority (Japanese), being a grade above everyone else, and also being a girl in an early 2000s action adventure show. Basically she's got a lot going on that makes her a perfectly qualified deuteragonist type. Which may be for the best in a series otherwise full of protagonist types.
But really every character takes their turn at being central in the art, and the stereotypical "main protag traits" tend to be distributed amongst them. Ulrich may have the stereotypical skillset for instance, but Odd is closer to the stereotypical personality and Yumi has the more fleshed out home life. Jeremie drives the plot forward, but the plot is about Aelita's family. You really can't point at a single character and go "that's the face of Code Lyoko".

Cass + ballet šŸ©° (ft. supportive siblings and good dad Bruce)
I love the idea of Cass enjoying dance. It's an outlet that allows her to express herself without words, and I think she would enjoy the highly technical aspect of ballet combined with its storytelling and emotional side. and as a former dancer I always have fun imagining my fav characters do ballet :)

Welcome to POISON HOUSE, starring the following beautiful men who hate each other:
soft baby who is always cold
his loyal bodyguard (hates all the others)
serious brother issues (elder)
serious brother issues (younger, feral; approach with caution)
guy who might be immortal
guy who isn't allowed in poison house but in his defense he got bored so if you think about it he HAD to sneak in
Look no further for intense weirdos with way too much knowledge about which plants can kill you and BIG hang-ups about normal things like "women" and "going outside". Everyone is wearing the most gorgeous outfit you've ever seen. Everyone is 10 out of 10 off the wall bonkers insane. None of them have correctly identified the multiple assassins in their midst. There is one (1) sister in this family and she has decided she's the main character out of sheer self-defense and you know what, I would too

I kind of love the difference between them here. Watanuki finally gets a little moment of joy and immediately wishes that someone else he doesnā€™t even know that well could also be as happy as him.Ā 
And Doumeki admits that she probably would if she actually ate it. The bold black background to the bottom frame really emphasises the judgement Doumeki is making here. The way he says it really hones in on the fact that she is the only one thatā€™s holding herself back from accepting such an easy joy.Ā 
Itā€™s an interesting parallel to the little personal journey Watanuki just went through - being afraid of something, initially saying no, but then pushing himself and doing it anyway to get a great result. The customer could have the same exact journey if she can find the same drive that Watanuki did. If she never eats it, the only one she can blame is herself.Ā 
Especially with Watanuki trying SO HARD to provide her with opportunities.
... Actually if you think about it that way, maybe Watanuki has the right strategy. If he had to be annoyed at Doumeki to the point that he'd rather eat the cookie than admit his fears, if Watanuki annoys the customer enough it might have the same result!

Just had the cutest interaction while training Forte.
We were working on alternating between casual heeling/llw and fmp with him in harness around the block. We'd come full circle back to the driveway when I spotted a young kid on a bike coming up the road.
I put Forte in a down and planned to reward him as kid and dad passed by. But the kid saw Forte and stopped in front of us while repeatedly pointing out the doggy. (Kid was young, training wheels and dad's hand on the back of his seat.)
I could tell dad was getting uncomfortable because kid would not move on and was very fixated on Forte. So I looked at dad and explained that this dog is learning to be a service dog, which is a special dog who helps people. That this dog loves people but needs to be able to ignore them when he's working so he can focus on the handler. And if they had a few minutes, would they want to help me train him.
Dad relaxed and said yes. So I asked the kid if he could ride around real fast and call to the doggy. If the doggy stayed in his down I'd reward him with a tasty treat. Kid was pumped to do so. After a few minutes I thanked them both for helping me train my dog.
As the kid rode off I could hear him excitedly telling his dad "I helped train a service dog. They're really special dogs ". And dad agreed that he did and that he'd done a good job. Kid proceeded to say "I'm going to tell mom I helped train a service dog. Does she know they're special dogs?" To which dad said mom's going to be impressed because she knows those are special helper dogs and their training is really important.
It was such a wholesome interaction.

koi I just saw ur response to my ask :) thank u for the details!!! I can just see the choice conversation going down... but also sy who thinks it's better bc at least here he's alive even if he's ground down to dirt lmao but how do you explain that? that you know the taste of death and that it lingers in your throat? nope, way too deep and inexplicable. but I think that kind of thing would wander in the eyes sometimes, and the hope is always that nobody sees it, but if there's someone who's always looking... sy, stop looking like the devil is touching the back of your neck
ahhh sorry for all that I just really like this au šŸ„¹ I hope I didnt overstep
NO BC YOU ACTUALLY BRING UP SMTH THATS BEEN ON MY MIND.. like one of the big things about this is sy's inner conflict because he despises sqq for having control over his life but at the same time he knows things could have been really worse without sqq's intervention. like if sqq hadn't believed sy then at best he would have sy thrown off the mountain and left to fend for himself, and at worse sqq could have killed him or tried him for an assassination attempt. so its like... its fucked up but sy owes sqq for almost everything, from his position, to the food he eats, to the clothes on his back. sy didnt know there was another transmigrator in this world when he appeared, so up until meeting sqh his survival was due to sqq. and on some fucked up level he feels like he owes sqq for saving him
