Consider. Consider. Artemis with a single braid but she also has highlights. Or ombré. OR BOTH
#think anna from frozen in the middle-end of the first movie#you see it's a) very cool and also b) funny to me specifically#because highlights in italian are called 'colpi di sole'#which. okay it would sound violent in the only way i know how to translate it#but it basically refers to sunlight shining on your hair#in this case i guess they would be called colpi di luna bc. she's a moon goddess#LMAO#lonely thoughts

For the au ask game!
OKAY I wanted specifically to get to the pokemon au from the ask you sent, it's been cooking a bit so it's time to see what comes out of the oven, so... @azol-otl ty for the ask!
Crossover au's are all about the fused worldbuilding for me and speculating on how characters from universe A would fit into universe B heehee hoohoo - and for Batfam especially it's fun to think about the equivalent of their roles as vigilantes! What kind of people have the same level of celebrity, the same sideways seeking of justice?
Naturally this leads you to the gym leaders because a) it's the most fun and b) they are like. Quasi-law enforcement/educators/professional athletes depending on how you try to translate the innate child's perspective on the pokemon universe into something that makes sense as an adult lol ilu pokemon. [insert 'compels me though' gif here]
SO with this in mind, here's 5 fun facts (that are mostly backstory lmao) from a jaytim pokemon au I would write
I'm deeply ill about pokemon so this one goes under the cut lol:
Jason Todd used to be the Champion. He won the role after Dick Grayson quit a year or two before (Dick had been getting older and chafing under the League rules - meaning he'd been chafing under how Bruce ran the League) and was a fierce competitor who didn't believe in going easy on anyone. His Houndoom was a force to be reckoned with, and despite running a mostly Dark-type team, his Honchkrow cleaned up anyone thinking their Fighting-types could sweep. He looked after the League and Gotham with a cocky, self-assured attitude and the win record to back it up. .
Jason disappeared suddenly at the age of 15. Many assumed him dead, after a Rocket (Or whatever Gotham themed gang name we want to go with lol could be Team Joker) bombing in the area he'd last been seen, but he's officially declared missing. Bruce Wayne took back the duties of interim Champion as he once did for Dick Grayson, but he's not quite the mentor he once was. It's obvious he's grieving, and that he doesn't want to mentor any more twelve year olds. Dick signed up to be a Gym Leader shortly after this, returning from his trip about a year early to help out in the chaos following Jason's disappearance. .
Enter Tim Drake. Tim's gym challenge wasn't all that interesting in the circuit at first; he had a rocky start and had to retake a few gym challenges. He wasn't exactly sweeping on his first try every time like Jason had done. He didn't have the meteoric rise that caught the Champion's attention early, didn't get one-on-one mentorship or face-to-face meetings, cautionary advice and congratulations all rolled into one from Bruce Wayne himself - but Tim had patience and grit, and he paid attention. He was gunning for the Championship, and it wasn't just so he could prove himself. Team Rocket/Joker was still out there, and Bruce needed all the help he could get. He was always better for Gotham when he had a Robin. .
Dick had been nicknamed Robin for his all-Flying-type team and especially his Natu-then-Xatu; Jason followed up with his Murkrow-then-Honchkrow; Tim's Rookidee was one among many (Robin-esque pokemon were popularized by Dick and the trend remains through Tim's day) so he wasn't considered a possible Robin successor until it was a Corvisquire and he was about to face Dick Grayson himself, a badge away from Victory Road. By then, Tim and his team were a well-oiled machine (he runs mostly Steel-types lol but also Normal-types for the unexpected adaptability and the 'underestimate my rattata i dare you it's in the top peRCENTAGE--' of it all. FEAR.), and his loss-record had all but frozen while his win-record ticked higher and higher. .
Shit finally goes down about three years after Tim has become Champion and all but bullied Bruce into mentoring him (he basically said 'if you don't watch me, i'll go find Team Rocket/Joker on my own' and triggers all of Bruce's child endangerment traumas simultaneously) and the mysterious Rocket/Joker leader Red Hood shows up, bringing the gang out of the shadows in pursuit of a hidden agenda. Identity shenanigans and "wait is that a Houndoom? But he's only been using Ghost-types, it CAN'T be..." and heel-face turns abound. .
(BONUS FACT: Something something, Jason went into deep cover with Looker or whoever he is, that Interpol guy from X & Y (WAIT. LOOKER MIGHT ACTUALLY BE TALIA AL GHUL IN THIS AU HOHOHO), infiltrating the Rocket/Joker gang and going public as Red Hood is the first step in the last phase of the sting. Cue a million tense Jaytim interactions in which Tim is legitimately trying to take Red Hood down and Jason desperately tries to shake him so that he doesn't do anything that forces Jason to blow his cover. There is at least one 'tugged into a tight space to hide them both from the actual bad guys, "wait, did you just HELP me...?" "Think whatever you want, babybird"' interaction because I am a slut for the first sprinkles of a redemption arc that is rife with UST fufufu)
#did i make this pokemon au actually an undercover spy action movie? yes. yes i did#also their full team comp i will leave to the imagination haha#everyone has their preferences for what's appropriate so i'll name a general typing preference and leave it there mostly#but I will defend Dick 'the Flying' Grayson(s) forever. all flying types for him change my mind#I like the idea of city-boy through and through street kid Jason having a stereotypical inner city team at first#but his team changes and expands as his pokemon journey really kicks off#i always think of that one short from the start of Pokemon 2000 with the inner city tire castle that pikachu finds#and the houndour that FUCKS IT UP LOL#so to me houndour is like. okay it's one of my favorite pokemon (COULD YOU TELL *glances at my banner) but it's a def an urban pokemon to m#so i like the idea of scrappy street kid Jason finding a houndour 🥺 and that was his first pokemon 🥺#so he kinda falls into dark-types in part because of the stigma around them being difficult to raise and him calling BS#and then of course he switches to ghost-types after he 'dies' in part to separate his identity as Red Hood from Jason Todd#but also for the joke of it all lmao look the dead boy uses ghost pokemon. who also have a stigma for being creepy/unlovable. i cry forever#Tim's team i am the most *shrug* about but i do think he has either a competitive team or a meme team lol#but for him i do like the aesthetics of steel- electric- normal- because Tim is the robin with secretly unhinged normal boy swag#he's out here doing the math and making you underestimate him look at his big tanky aggron lol so slow and then BAM#pikachu with light orb and x6 agility x6 double team u can't touch that rat electro ball to the face#Does his wigglytuff know thunderpunch? ice punch? fire punch? good luck guessing he switches its move set after every battle mfer#OKAY ANYWAY#ty azol for the ask!! i love pokemon i have many brainworms owo#edit: had to fix the formatting a bit to make this READABLE. God help me if it sucks to look at RIP#jaytim#not fic#my writing#ask game#asked and answered#pokemon#dc

That ended exactly how I expected it to and, as expected, I am entirely neutral on it. Wasn't a satisfying ending or a super hype ending or anything like that, literally just the ending that may as well have happened. Not a single thing surprised me that whole conclusion, it felt unfortunately predictable. You can tell he's excited for it's end though so I'm happy for Horikoshi regardless, hope he can get proper rest now.
#bnha#mha#boku no hero academia#my hero academia#mha 430#mha spoilers#bnha spoilers#spoilers#like yeah okay. quirkless. teacher. becomes hero anyway. yeah. left the ships open ended but after last chapter i expected that too.#none of the old bitches are dead somehow. literally an entire chapter full to the brim of just parallels to thw first chapter#which is a normal ending that a lot of stories opt for since it ties things together nicely. but idk. i was vaguely hoping for more?#just felt like a whole chapter of nodding my head and going yeah. yeah okay.#wish there had been something more emotional. also wish he had covered more characters endings. shirakumi got a micro panel#was hoping for a grand conclusion i guess and instead got the average shounen time skip. but ykw its better than demon slayer and narutos#so f it ill take it whatever man#i am happy its over tho. ive loved it for so long im happy i was here to see the ending live. guess I'm just bittersweet idk#still hyperfixated tho so i dont imagine my posts will change#cant wait for the art book fan book movie and special announcement tho yipeee#o shit i typed shirokimi earlier. i meant shirakumo. kurogiri. bros conclusion was a micro panel of a fucking tombstone

From Venom: The Last Dance (2024)
#venom#venom movie#venom the last dance#marvel#marvel movies#venom-ass-daily#i saw the movie!#it was okay#like it was bad but it was fun trashy bad#we all know to expect that from venom movies (and venom media in general tbh) so like thats not anything new#i think it might be the weakest venom movie though#idk id have to watch the first one again#let there be carnage is definitely the best one for me#but um spoilers i guess for the movie#i liked the shoe joke#i didnt like the boring scientist and soldier characters i thought they were boring#i didnt like that they didnt do toxin with mulligan and just gave him some mountain dew symbiote and then killed him#i liked the weird hippie family#i thought id hate them but i thought they were fun#i liked how mrs chen made a comeback and i liked the stupid dance they did that was good trash#i think its wild that they just killed venom off but like it is the last dance i guess so go off#i liked how knull had no presence because i dont like knull but also thats generally bad from a writing standpoint#i wish they wouldve made the xenophages like they were in the comics i think that wouldve been gold#imagine if they were all snooty food critics like they were in the hunted#i would have lost my mind lol#anyway it was okay

Speaking of fic: the most intense negative comments I've ever gotten have been for Season of Courtship, but the most "...huh" are definitely the complaints about First Impressions (my f!Darcy/m!Elizabeth retelling of P&P).
I was poking around old fic accounts and off AO3(/Dreamwidth), there are a bunch of complaints about Catherine (f!Darcy) that are either like a) why would you even write Darcy as a woman, preposterous or b) she's cold and nasty and Henry (m!Elizabeth) only falls for her because he's a weak man who wants to be dominated.
(My other commenters have generally treated Catherine as the main attraction of the fic, so it is genuinely interesting to see how different the responses can get outside of my usual haunts! But also the idea of femdom Hal/Catherine is hilarious to me.)
#not to hugely overextrapolate but ao3 comments being like 'step on me catherine' while ff.net has the 'what a bitch' ones#is peak ao3 vs ff.net in my experience#also there is no iteration of darcy who i can envision domming any version of elizabeth lmao#there were also the comments on sw fic that were like 'i GUESS it's okay that you don't cite tcw since you're a movie purist but...'#lol thanks for the permission#fic talk#fic talk: season of courtship#fic talk: first impressions#austen blogging#austen fanwank#genderbending

potential sonic 3 spoilers incoming if anyone cares. anyway . apparently there was an official survey about the knuckles show/scu in general and one of the questions was about what name you would use for an eggman/shadow/gerald teamup. which is a weirdly specific question. and also one of the name options was team dark …….. ?? even though rouge isnt mentioned in the question and theres no sign of her being in the next movie in general ? i was willing to accept amy being introduced a little after knuckles and tails but between there still being no sign of her being in the next movie and now this if they actually have gerald time travel or something and have him be the third member of the dark story trio instead of rouge then i will be fully convinced that theyre going out of their way to exclude as many already existing girl characters as possible. like i get cgi is expensive which could be part of the reason rouge might not have made the cut. but damn . assuming this is real anyway it could just be another fake leak but idk
#im not saying the writers hate all the girl characters (iirc they have said they like amy and rouge and shown interest in adding them)#and i also dont think the movies have to be complete copies of the games in terms of stories and characters#but some of the decisions being made here are so weird and kinda show a lack of care for those characters ..#its especially odd that iirc theyve said that part of what influences the choices on what characters to use is popularity/recognizability#both to fans of the games as well as more casual viewers#yet they might be rewriting a major part of the story just to include gerald over rouge?#and they wanted a character who was a ghost echidna that guided the living characters and they picked pachacamac#instead of tikal who both already fits that description And is more popular?#okay well i doubt casual viewers would know who tikal is but they dont know who pachacamac is either#and its also an objective fact that tikal is more popular among fans . Man .#also theres the thing of knuckles being given a connection to iblis when thats already elise (and blaze)'s thing#to be fair knuckles is way more popular and recognizable than elise. and i really doubt sonic 06 would get adapted#but still#maria IS confirmed to be in the next movie though#but idk if i would consider that to be a win for girl sonic characters#considering shes the only one known to be in it AND she dies#sonic movie spoilers#sonic movie 3 spoilers#i guess idk#also again considering the whole cgi thing i would have been willing to accept no rouge even if its disappointing#but to have gerald of all characters replace her is just so. what .... cant you just use agent stone or a new character or something#i dont hate gerald its just the idea of bringing him back to life instead of including rouge is weird .#anyway . we also dont have full context so maybe its nt as bad as it sounds. or maybe theyre hiding rouge and amy from us . IDKK#but also every new info about this movie we get has me like that one picture of a guy holding a cigarette and looking reallytired#and i hate feeling this way when i was so excited about the first 2 when they came out#sad ! well theres other sonic media

Behold... the thing I mentioned in my last post :D (well, technically second to last now)
"Loving truly is easy
It is so deceptively gentle
I do not find it can even be considered a fall
Rather than the brush of a hand
Or the first rays of the sun that warm your face
It is there without your knowing precisely how
And then it hits you when it is gone
Or when it teases you that it will leave you
And then you find that the future is now no longer imaginable
without someone
For you’ve set your eyes and the rest of your life
around the idea that he will perpetually be there
Lovers own your unforgettable past and your foreseeable future
You know you’ve loved when you effectively see that somehow
You’ve decided you were incomplete after all"
-- Love, War chapter 16 by Mirrordance
The background music is the instrumental version of "Superstar" by Marina because I was listening to it a lot when I was reading this fic the first time and now they are forever linked in my brain
#my tags on this keep getting deleted for some reason?????#lotr#aragorn#legolas#seagull.art#I guess?#I don't really do video edits so I hope this looks okay to other people#also aragorn/arwen will always be my number one lotr ship#but the movie versions of these two do Something To My Brain#(at least they have since 2021 when I first read this fic)

LIE. fucking lie. okay well no that’s my second thought. my first is to say “i want to see pip hanging” so i say that#and then that’s when i fucking lie. “nah im jk i like pip tbh”#i do not. but that’s okay really i just don’t care that much about him. like yeah he exists i guess#now i realise i must ask a very important question. kyman yes or no. tells you a lot about a person.#so i ask him. he’s a kyman anti. luckily for me i simultaneously love and hate them whilst also having no opinion on them at all so i can#use this to my advantage and agree with him#okay cool we’re friends now. i can’t stop winning!#guys don’t be like me. don’t lie to make friends just tell the truth. tell the truth to the damien hell park guy on roblox god damnit

watching the raimi spidermans as an adult and im kind of in awe at the reputation raimi mj has like. idk man she kinda just exists. and maybe cut her some slack for peter leading her on over and over and over again. i think she deserves to kill him with hammers for the shit he pulled at the beginning of 3 i'll say it idc
#shes just kind of a woman. a woman who literally survived domestic abuse and is making it all on her own might i add#like yeah dawg shes gonna be a bit insecure but tbh its like. not even bad at all. its a perfectly normal level of being maladjusted#like her getting so upset about the reviews and at first i was like okay i get it but also itll be okay girl#and then she was like reading these words all i can see and hear is my dad and its like OHHHHHH. okay. yeah noted valid#i have things to say about how shes WRITTEN. like how she obvi plays into the damsel in distress role and the. things shes often forced#to wear#but like idk when she shines mj kinda fucking kicks ass. last night watched 2 and her doing a nyc ass whistle at doc ock ruled hard#rewatching these its just like ohhhhh you arent actually annoying or evil youre just a woman in a series of movies from the 2000s#so everyone thought you deserved the death penalty for some reason. okay#the majority of the time ive been watching these i feel like pete kind of treats her like shit if anything#ive been snapping whenever she lays into him i wont lie. like she ate him up at the proposal dinner#idk why this became an essay i guess this has kinda just been an epiphany for me#anyway. mj Get Behind Me. tbh all women from films from the 2000s Get Behind Me#mine

local theatre has i saw the tv glow but they have it every thursday and i think i work every single thursday night for the rest of the summer. my job is transphobic ?
#UGH i guess i will have to go to the cineplex… hate to go there when i have the option to go to an independent theatre#altho lowkey i think the owners of said theatre might be far right freaks soooo you know. maybe i shouldnt patronize them#but i don’t actually have evidence for that also why r they showing That movie if they believe that hm?#edit okay another small theatre has it but like this first theatre is like 4 blocks from my house#and the other one is all the way downtown. its not egregiously far but it is annoying#edit 2 ohhh but if i go there on tuesday its only five dollars. slay okay. (reg price is 6 dollars LMFAO)
