crow has nicknames he calls the kids we see in the main story that are playable.

clara - calls her "ojou-sama"

hook - calls her pitch dark hook the great to her face, calls her "koneko" in private

bailu - calls her "lady"

yanqing - calls him "shizi"

huohuo - calls her "gui" or "jingshen"

she often calls them by their nicknames in private so they don't find out but they always do.

“Consider me pressured,” he says, plucking a cigarette from the carton and placing it between his lips. He gestures for the lighter in her lap.

“Well, don’t smoke just because I said so,” she says. “It’s not a good habit to start.”

“It’s a habit I already have,” Adrien says, his lips pulling sheepish around the cigarette that he’s artfully dangling at the edge of his mouth. “I’m just letting you pressure me into it again.”

“As long as it’s not your first,” she says, leaning forward and cupping one hand around the end of his cigarette, using the other to flick the lighter on.

His golden eyelashes brush his cheekbones as he inhales. “It would’ve been a pleasure to have you as my first,” he murmurs, looking up at her as smoke curls out from his lips.

like there really is something about the genre shift between beard after hours and the rest of the show, the way it goes from ted’s worldview to beard’s worldview …. And how it’s the ONLY episode to take beardjane seriously in any capacity. showing the texts, the interpersonal communication between them, how beard feels about her (“I am under no illusions that she could solve what ails me, but when I’m with her the world just feels…more interesting.”) like,,,,, basically ever episode, beardjane is treated like a comedic punchline. he’ll say something she did, ted makes a joke. he gets high during a match because she left drugged tea out, ted makes a joke about him drinking tea. she shreds his passport, Ted makes a lighthearted comment about how at least he has another passport. Like. Hm.

finding neverland, a review of sorts

hello! this is a sort of an after the fact "live blogging" (except all in one post 💀) of my thoughts as i was watching finding neverland (a.r.t. version). i basically just wrote whatever i was thinking down as i was watching, so this is truly very raw (obviously, i've gone in and cleaned some things up + added gifs to help those who read it (and myself if i come back to this post) figure out what on earth i'm blabbing about).

...read at your own risk! (also, in case it wasn't obvious, spoilers ahead)

act 1

THE SCOTTISH ACCENT

when he sings with it too 😭

i was not expecting this to be as funny as it is for some reason

"i don't know why you talk to that dog like he's a person" XD

"and what precisely is this poor wretch's crime?" "he's my younger brother" - yep, checks out

i'm 13 minutes in and i love it already

can we talk about how thayne jasperson as porthos weirdly works

okay wait, but is jeremy actually kind of doing choreography...?

OKAY BUT THIS RIVER SCENE IS SO CUTE

also when he randomly loses the accent

laura michelle kelly is amazing

uh she just coughed. i'm scared and paranoid...maybe laura actually just needed to cough, but i'm going to keep this here in case it is something... (EDIT: IT WAS AND I WILL NEVER RECOVER)

i'm obsessed with this (retroactively, why doesn't it show up again 😭)

"nice try, but no." jack is me.

this is me every day and it's a problem ⬇️

THIS IS SO FUN HOW HAVE I NOT WATCHED THIS SOONER

"perhaps having fun is more important than everything being perfect" - yes!

okay but the ex-ballerina in me is going crazy for the maid choreography

okay sobbing cause "neverland" just happened—it's weird that i've never listened to him sing this before and i'm unsure whether i should just pause now to recover or rewind and watch it again (edit: i did both)

"well at this rate, we'll also have to imagine that there's an audience" - THEM LOOKING AT THE AUDIENCE AFTER THAT IS ABSOLUTELY GENIUS

sylvia's dress is so pretty lol

...this is interesting choreo

but i love the door merry go round

okay i've seen "hook" and "stronger" before, but this is so much better with context

maybe my boot is just really bad (it is) but did he just pull a stick out of his pant pocket

i can't i have no words

act 2

i would very much like to see what's happening on the other side of the curtain

PRINCESS DIGGORY

SHE'S COUGHING AGAIN

this bar scene reminds me of lotr for some reason but i like it, it's very fun

WHAT YOU MEAN TO ME my beloved

the singing while lying down 😳

i am unwell

oh a kid song, let's go - okay but actually, i love this number

HELP THIS WAS LITERALLY ME AND MY SIBLINGS okay how much will i have to pay them to watch this

NOOOOO WHY

WHY

WHY

i'm so upset i can't even bring myself to put a gif here, but we all know what scene.

aiden gemme is doing a great job as peter.

OK BUT THIS DUET

SOBBING

why is there upbeat music do you not know what just happened.

i love it when the audience is part of the show

this whole scene MY HEART I CANNOT

this is so chaotic but i love it it's perfect

CHILLS

i. love. laura. michelle. kelly.

that was beautiful even though it was sad

"mary, you're outside!" akdfasdhflashdfas

i can't (how many times have i said that). this is such a perfect ending

la fin

(until my next rewatch which could be right now)

Being routine-oriented may get a bad rap but a solid chunk of opportunities that have come to me in life have just come from me showing up consistently

So I just finished Super Robot Wars 30 (the only SRW I've played so far), and being the obsessed hyperfixator that I am, I immediately thought about how Symphogear would've mixed with the world.

Unfortunately the answer is "not great" because in 30 there are multiple elements at play in the creation of humanity and trying to add in Symphogear with it's lore regarding the Anunnaki is... difficult (if only because the Wulgaru from Majestic Prince has taken that space).

WITH THAT SAID... if w were to ignore that part of the lore and they WERE in this universe, could anybody else see Section Two/S.O.N.G. being closely tied to GGG? They serve VERY similar purposes, and you cannot tell me that Genjuro wouldn't respect the hell out of the philosophies that GGG runs on. Because 30 follows Gaogaigar VS. Betterman and takes place 10 years after Final, any Symphogear plots would've had to happen AFTER Final, so chances are none of the wielders (barring potentially Tsubasa) would've had much of a connection to the original GGG members, but that just means they'd be working with the newer GGG instead, which means that they would be friends with Mamoru and Kaido instead, and probably work alongside them at times as well.

Putting a focus on Hibiki just for the sake of simplicity, she probably gets along great with Mamoru and has heard plenty of heroic stories about the original Braves... and when the original Braves DO come back, boy would she ever look up to Guy. And like, who wouldn't, right? But ESPECIALLY Hibiki. She's got bravery in spades, after all.

There are a LOT of other elements to consider, of course.... but full disclosure, I can't say I have a full comprehensive understanding of the timeline concerning the Last 10 Years that 30 takes place after. But it just feels to me that they fit in especially well with the Gaogaigar characters, much in the same way J-Decker did.

Anyways, ramble over, but one last thing... it's worth noting that they'd also work well with the Gridman characters too, especially since well... Hibiki is canonically someone he could merge with in order to fight.

started grimm season four and one of the writers must've had a grudge against juliette or something bc she is being written as such an awful person here and i cannot figure out why

like?? first of all, to be like "ugh i can't believe nick had sex with adalind who was disguised as me in every way but didn't magically realize it wasn't me 😒" hey uh perhaps you should, instead, be more upset with adalind who tricked nick into having sex aka raped him? for the purpose of cursing him? like i'm not denying her right to be upset too but priorities??

second of all her going to monroe and rosalee like "hey maybe you shouldn't fix nick maybe he's better off being normal" HELLO?? he's never gonna be white-picket-fence normal juliette bc even if he can't see wesen he still knows they exist! those are his wesen besties you are speaking to rn. you didn't know about the whole other magical world and it didn't stop you from getting cursed. did you forget how much it sucked getting cursed, juliette? like he is now also cursed?? even if he did want to be normal don't you think they should investigate anyway just in case there are side effects? also just. wow. going to them and saying "could you, idk, investigate slower?" THEY DIPPED ON THEIR HONEYMOON TO INVESTIGATE THIS. they are WESEN and they are TRYING TO TURN NICK BACK INTO A GRIMM. WHAT are you even TALKING about

[thelassoway]

I'm still so mad that we got all those parallels and callbacks and yet no tedbecca. It was all for nothing. THEY WERE IN LOVE DAMMIT!!!!

Hi!

First, I hope all is well with you.

And this gif sums up my feels on that season of that one show:
