thinking once again about how the cube did not have to be the reason things went wayside on the literal Bridge of Darkness, and doubly so that it didn't have to be because of the moon opal. callum's scarf could've just slipped a little off his staff, or bait could've gotten frightened. but nooo they went for the key in the same ep where callum is going to declare "nothing good can come from it" like 2 scenes later and after the moon opal has already been compared to rayla ("the moon ones are the prettiest") like

When you think "y'know, since I have the patterns, I could just go ahead and make this other cosplay too while I'm at it" do not listen. That is the devil talking.

Honestly, the funniest characters in Saiki K are those guys who started following Saiko around, carrying him and pretty much acting like his servants and the rest of the classroom assumed they had been paid off by him, but no, they straight up went "nah, we kinda just like being lackeys, it actually pisses us off he tries to pay us every time, we're friends, we don't need him to pay us for that >:("

Like... weird ass friendship dynamic but you do you, guys 🎉

Polished up an old sketch! Some friendly kitchen competition between Adira and Varian. (Hector is off-screen peeling potatoes.)

My favorite part of guess the build is Gem just casually building super well detailed builds and then it cuts to another person panicking about time

I get the criticism of the Hunters of Artemis from a narrative perspective—it sucks that it essentially boots interesting female characters out of the story—but it always baffles me when people viciously hate Artemis for *checks notes* doing damage control.

Like. Thalia explicitly goes with Artemis to avoid the prophecy, and I definitely think that’s the reason Artemis tried so hard to get her to join—hell, you can view the hunters trying to recruit Annabeth as a way to get Thalia to join. And Bianca? You can’t convince me that Artemis didn’t guess there was something up there and react accordingly.

If Percy or Nico were even a little bit girl-adjacent you bet your ass she would be all over them to join. No one actually wants to risk the Great Prophecy happening, and Artemis is doing a hell of a lot more to stop it than anyone else.

Ryuji having the worst bi crisis of his fucking life bc his mom just had to fucking ask “oh, whats this young ladys name?” when he showed her a picture of Akira petting Morgana. Like okay yeah Akira is like objectively pretty, hes like the Classic Delicate Pretty Boy just like Yusuke which is like whatever; straight dudes have eyes, and they know what women like to see. But now hes like. Seeing things he likes in girls IN Akira now and he cant make it Stop like its genuinely keeping him up at night 😭

Pretty boy used to be A Face that would come up in his mind when he thought of the term. There was no specifics in mind, just like. Pretty Boy. Pretty boy! You say that and theres like a Face Template that shows up in ur minds eye and hed just attribute that to any dude who was like Vaguely Pretty. But now its Akira 😭 and he finds himself cataloging things that Akira does that he KNOWS he finds cute when girls do it. The hairtuck behind the ears. The headtilt when he mishears a question. The Actually Pretty Doe Eyes. The breathy, nearly inaudible chuckle he does in place of a Real laugh (thats made better by the fact that its so hard to get him to laugh in the first place). He likes cute snacks. He blushes easily. Ryuji is sitting here like ‘theres no fucking way man. Like theres just no way. That shit makes NO sense (a lie)’ lying in bed in the middle of the night looking like this vvvv w his phone in his hands (looking at pictures of akira)

It drives him insane bc like he did Not see any of these things as like inherently girly or whatever. Like thats just akira thats just his bro! And he does OTHER weird shit that cancels all that shit out. Hes like a messy engineer/tinkerer, he rolls out of bed and whatever situation his hair is is everyones problem. He wears that AWFUL gym uniform and doesnt tweak it AT ALL?? He likes baseball?? hes got a whole binder of trading cards that he will show off if u show any moment of weakness. Like hes just Some Dude but also manages to be Some Girl at the same time and Ryuji is like thats not fair. Life sucked ass but at least it made sense before Akira stumbled into it 😭

”—ah. seems like mother goose has been playing around in your egg salad. if you won’t dance to that tune, I got others.”

honestly, the would you kindly scene is whatever to me*, code yellow is the more interesting violation/betrayal of the body because of how beautifully it escalates the Fontaine reveal/betrayal and shows how ugly some of those ‘locks and keys’ that Tenenbaum mentions are. not only have you been a tool in another man’s hand this entire time, it goes deeper. your body is not your own.

*there used to be a meandering thought here about the would you kindly scene, but it was really just talking around the fact that I spent way too many years seeing people discuss it in the most insufferable and reductive ways possible when it’s a combination of three or four other things that make that moment compelling lmao

"I love you," Yuichi breathes out, and Leonardo's heart hammers a new kind of rhythm in his chest. He can't help but kiss him. Yuichi smiles against his lips and they stay there, on the bank of an underground river, soaked to the bone but happy, kissing and giggling like a pair of teenagers, uncaring of the yokai who pass them by on their way across the bridge towards the city. Leonardo sits up and wraps his arms around the rabbit and when their lips next separate, he murmurs his reciprocation against Yuichi's mouth. It's received with a delighted laugh and another kiss, and another, and another, and Leonardo thinks that this might be more happiness than his two hands are able to hold – but by the Pizza Supreme in the Sky, he is going to try.

...terv can have a little self-indulgence. as a treat.

reader who runs one of those street interview channels and approaches a handsome man in a cap. although he can only spare a minute, he's slick and slips his number into your hand off camera. your viewers go wild over the chemistry, leaving comments about the obvious eye-fucking and effortless banter.

you can't ignore the chorus begging for more, so you shoot off a text. you unsure if you'll hear back. going viral isn't for everyone, and chances are, the man's mortified.

but, he responds and introduces himself. kyle.

he isn't sure about making another appearance on your channel. says his boss chewed him out for the first clip. he is open to a drink though, whether it's for a coffee or a pint.

you have thousands of subscribers, post clips daily, and talk to strangers for a living. you are not shy. you are not insecure. yet, for the first time in years, you have butterflies.
