GRAVITY FALLS TIER LIST BASED OFF WHO I THINK WOULD LIVE IF I MADE THEM ALL FIGHT TO THE DEATH

THIS IS SPECIFICALLY IN A SITUATION WHERE IT’S BARE HANDS NO EXTRA ANYTHING. NO PREP TIME, NO WEAPONS, NO SPECIES DEFENSE, JUST A BUNCH OF SWEATY TERRIFIED HUMANS IN ONE OF THOSE GREEK COLOSSEUMS.

DANIEL WINS BECAUSE HE’S THE MOST PHYSICALLY STRONG HERE AND I THINK HE HAS THE LEAST GRIPES WITH MURDER AFTER WATCHING THE DEATH OF HIS CHILDREN

NORTHWESTS DIE FIRST BECAUSE EVEN I WANT THEM DEAD

The amount of people who genuinely believe that Hinata and Hoshiumi hate each other is so baffling to me because Hoshiumi literally says that he and Hinata will take on the whole world together.

Of course, this is not the only line that debunks the claim that their relationship is built on some degree of genuine animosity, but... this panel in particular sums up exactly what type of dynamic these two have. No, they don't hate each other or see each other as threats to their way to the top. The Kamomedai and Karasuno match entails Hoshiumi in particular realising that just because he and Hinata are both short players in a sport where being short is considered disadvantageous, does not mean that they're the same or that they have similar playing styles. Additionally, when Hinata finally embraces his role as "The Greatest Decoy" (thereby embracing his own distinct playing style), Hoshiumi acknowledges that the existence of one style does not negate the presence of another.

There's enough room on the court for both he and Hinata!!! There's enough room on the court for both of their playing styles to flourish!!! Hoshiumi doesn't really consider Hinata a rival because he isn't a hurdle he must overcome on his way to the top!!! They'll make it to the top together!!! They'll take on the whole world together!!! They'll continue to defy those odds alongside each other because there's enough space at the top for both "The Little Giant" and "The Greatest Decoy"!!!

dean being older than sam and having experience with an apple pie life “pre-hunting” is so incredibly fundamental to their characters and the way they function (especially in the early seasons) it’s insane.

dean knowing how their family used to be before losing mary and spending his whole life trying to desperately piece it back together because it’s the only good he’s ever had and he romanticizes it even though he knows it wasn't perfect because it’s so good compared to what they have now vs sam knowing nothing but hunting and the family fractured by grief and wanting that same normal life by escaping because he can’t picture his family ever being like that.

like dean trying desperately to stay the loyal soldier to his father and look after sammy and do everything that’s needed of him for his family because he saw how it crumbled and how mary’s death tore them apart vs sam feeling constantly slighted his entire life because he’s never seen his family be a proper family that treats him the way he deserves. he has no history of happy family so he lashes out because he doesn’t feel there’s anything there to preserve. he has no hang ups on telling john how it is because he has no twisted up loyalty to a now broken and dysfunctional family.

it also explains so well how they view hunting and getting out. like sam hates it and wants out so bad because he views hunting as the source of all his family's problems and if they had never started hunting they wouldn't be "like that". he wants out because he believes the only way to be happy and have a good life is to not be a hunter. meanwhile dean knows that their family wasn't perfect before losing mary and starting to hunt ("their marriage wasn't perfect until after she died" and that entire scene show that really well). he knows that really there are problems everywhere and that family is complicated and that the issue lies more with their family than with hunting. he doesn't wish desperately to get out the way sam does because he knows there are problems with life no matter what and the only thing he's ever had in his life that was good was his family so he works so desperately to fix it and keep it together.

like dean looks at their family and says “this used to be so good and its the only good i've ever known and that’s buried here somewhere and i can get back if i’m Good Enough” vs sam saying “this has never been anything but a disaster and will never be anything but a disaster so if i want something perfect i have to leave”

I love your thin man comic. And it makes so much sense. That mono’s heroism and drive to save others would get amplified and twisted as the thin man.

YESS thank you so much!!! You could say it was twisted by the transmission much like six was, but in his own escapist fantasy of heroics and adoration...though admittedly I think time and loneliness and agony are more than enough to make a monster out of anyone, no otherworldly forces necessary. (Though it certainly does help~)

The Thin Man rly encapsulates a lot of my favorite character tropes, being twisted by what once could have been called love and care, losing yourself to an image, a personification of what you wish to be, desperately reaching for ...what is it? Control? Attention? Connection, beyond the parasocial?

Who knows. I just think he's neat

question if a kits mi like has a health complication halfway thru their kithood & someone else takes over how would that be handled. or what would it imply socially to call a parent miba or bami

The title of "Mi" applies to whoever spent the most time with you, the term can shift. guys this is not an evolving tyrogue you don't get a hitmonlee or a hitmonchan based off one stat being higher and if you balance the stats you get a secret third pokemon

Kitten may keep Mi for the first parent, because they're used to it. They might feel closer to their Ba after they took over and begin calling them Mi, because they don't remember their first moon very well. Ba might correct this behavior and insist they're Ba, out of love or respect for their mate and their previous role in raising this child.

In the eyes of the Clan, whoever is primarily in charge of the child is Mi. When the Cleric is treating wounds on a kitten who wandered off and got hurt, you don't go Um Ackshually when they bellow "FETCH THEIR MI." You go get the cat who was responsible for the child's safety.

Mi is primary caretaker, expected to tend to the physical needs of the kit and handle its early development. They move into the nursery and do less (or no) warrior duties, so they can do that effectively. So there is one Mi.

doesn't mean Ba is uninvolved. doesn't mean they aren't close to their kits. doesn't mean they don't support their co-parent.

Start calling them Miba or Bami and the Clan will think the parents are bizarrely insecure. Even a patrol only has one head-- why can't parents work out something as important as who will be the Mi of their child?

I was thinking there aren't enough memes catered to third parties on this site (ex. two muses talking about a third) which imo make rp flow so much smoother sometimes bc it feels more realistic for interactions to not start & end at only the two people directly involved, but then I realized... blud, you have a meme sideblog. You can literally make your own dreams come true

In the newest event duryodhana, true to form, is having beef with a 6 year old

He ended up annoying nobukatsu and paris enough that they started throwing plushes (?) at him

And he got pushed out of the treehouse and died. Good riddance <3

your f minor good omens fic!!!!!! it killed me!!!! i died!!!!! it resurrected me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then killed me again!!!!!!!!

Why must all deepest wants be the darkest? Comets made flesh and wyverns made nerve, Crowley looked at Aziraphale, the fireplace behind them burning warm, until what was dark was made bright, was made seen and hallowed by confession. By word and deed and repetition.

i put this into the fic cause i've always been fascinated by the phrase "deepest, darkest wants" and the way the act of wanting is closely tied to what is forbidden -- but just like that first apple, is the forbidden really so terrible, or is it just a product of arbitrary rules put there by someone else?

and in crowley and aziraphale's case, the forbidden thing is love, and i wanted to make that journey from them with their "hearts half-finished" in the first chapter to them looking at each other and seeing each other and realizing that this thing between them that they've spent so long running from is, in fact, brighter than the sun -- and not the dark, twisted thing they were taught it was

anyway!! thank you so much! i'm really so very glad you enjoyed this fic so much and i saw your comments on ao3 but i'm terrible at replying to comments but it really did make my day to see them both and i thought i might tell you a little more about the "forbidden made understood" theme you mentioned in your comment 💙

I've just finished episode 5 of Vivant, and I have to say, I really love and appreciate the mix of languages on this show. You just KNOW that if this show were American, all the "Balkan"/Mongolian characters would be speaking English with a foreign accent for the convenience of the audience. So I absolutely love this show's choice to have huge chunks of the show's dialogue delivered in Mongolian, including lines by the Japanese main characters, and to simply subtitle it in Japanese. No handwaving about how the main characters' foreign contacts just happen to speak Japanese with no expectation that the main characters might also speak Mongolian. No, instead, all the main characters speak Mongolian and English (and Arabic maybe, in Nogi's case?) in addition to Japanese, none of the Americans speak Japanese, only the Balkan/Mongolian characters for whom it makes sense that they would speak Japanese speak Japanese, and the language of the scene is chosen based on what language would most likely be used in that situation in real life. Convenience for the audience is simply not a consideration. And I love it!
