You could say that I have strong feelings about this ongoing debate

[ghostclefable]

Hori said last chapter is gonna show us what he thinks a real hero is, so obviously Katsuki is gonna tell Izuku all the reasons why he's Kats' hero and then Izuku is gonna be like "no you" and describe all the things that make Katsuki his hero. Then they'll hold hands and through the power of BL the embers of OFA will reignite

“Haven’t You Noticed (I’m a Star)” from Steven Universe works so ridiculously well for Leo

[puhpandas]

just watched all the way through john fuhnaffs recent theory and like godd he really is cooking he truly is onto something but like. the idea that Cassies dad did all of thos important stuff and is connected to the mimic and built mxes and did all this shit is like. what do Gregory and vanessa even have to do with anything anymore at this point

[corellianhounds]

There were parts of TBoBF I wanted to like but the writers and directors just kept making story choices that made their characters look dumb or inept.

I wanted to like the fight sequence with Mando and Boba working around each other in the streets, but if they were able to hide on the rooftop of the bombed out Sanctuary until getting the drop on the Pykes et al., why on earth would they leave the rooftop

Why would you come out of hiding. Why would you give up your cover in exchange for being wide out in the open. Why would you give up the literal high ground to go stand in the middle of a three-way intersection within a more achievable firing distance for your enemies. Why wouldn’t you stay on the roof firing from afar, something the both of you as hunters would not just know how to do better than anybody else there, but would know TO do in this specific situation. Why are you negating the element of surprise and the entire purpose of being on the rooftop to begin with.

I don’t care how cool they could have looked. I don’t care that we get to see the jetpacks in action. I don’t care how it’s supposed to represent some “I’ve got your back” moment between these two. It’s an incredibly basic directorial and fight choreography flub to have your two characters purposefully put themselves into danger when you’ve literally just established that they had the strategic advantage. Even children know it’s harder for people to get to you when you’re up somewhere out of reach.

everybody look at my shitty Moon Knight <3

[beatcroc]

Is your pfp an oc of urs? Any story?

yah that's N.K.

primer: a former god of fear who has since resigned, and now runs what is essentially an intergalactic tourist trap on his cursed planet, simply known as ''nk's domain''

i don't really do "stories" per se i just have my guys in their 'verse and they have their lore and sometimes that's actionable in a plot sort of way, but most of the time they are just doing their things. nk is one of my oldest oc's and as such probably the most, like, centralizing? nk's domain is sort of a meetup hub for most other characters that don't have their own defined Thing going on, as well as what several characters' Things are directly related to, but nk himself isn't all that much of an active player any more and most of the current story type stuff i'm working with has kinda moved beyond him.

aside from that it's just his history tying him to other stuff; there's a lotta old-guard guys who fuckin hate him back from when he was still doing the whole 'reign of terror' fear deity thing [nk used to stand for 'nightmare king' but he just goes by nk now], there's a bunch a new-guard guys he's pissed off for being the main force behind the universal outlawing of capitalism[honestly not that important and some worlds still do it anyway bc gods are bad at caring enough to actually enforce their rules unless it's like a Really egregious violation], and there's also the history of said "cursed planet" itself [he didnt do that he doesnt know why its like that he just saw it wand went ooooh free real estate. but theres a reason its like that and he's starting to pay the price for having taken it over [accidentally unleashed an imprisoned god-parasite plague][uh oh][its that yellow thing in the last image][this is actually what my "main" "story"/alleged webcomic is about] [go here go in the dark]]

[quaranmine]

random firewatch au detail that has basically no impact on the story unless you want to psychoanalyze fw!grian even further than i did as the author, but it's very intentional that i always refer to both of mumbo's parents but only grian's mom. did i give him daddy issues? i guess so, but not in a way where i really deeply examined the implications as meaningful to the story. it was just a detail i stuck with from the beginning as a way to keep fleshing out the story's background subtly. the idea behind grian's dual citizenship was always that he was born in america to an american dad and british mom, and that his mom moved back to the UK when he was very young since she wanted to be closer to her family. perhaps his dad didn't go with them? or perhaps his dad did, and then later they split and he went back to america? whatever the cause, grian never even mentions his dad in the story, and it wasn't because i intended him to be dead (because that would have come up in a story about grief) if you get me

[phantomtrax]

I'm putting the he/him pronoun set up on the high shelf until you people learn to behave around ungendered nonhuman characters who use they/them or literally any other pronoun set

[j3rmaballs]

me and my boyfriend were watching a bunch of old j vids and i feel very strongly about the way he would interact with men then. you get this fucking nailbiting sexual tension between him and 0rb, st3r and ESPECIALLY bvrgah boy which i rarely see people talk about so iiii wanna do it.

i think its kinda funny that j was pretty fatphobic around this time when his childhood friend was fat but whatever. most of js vids are him publically humiliating bvrgah boy which he seemed to enjoy a little too much hmm

anyway the video this clip is from in particular is one where js weird sexual tension with his friends comes out. idk if im bring crazy but theres something about the way he laughs breathily at his joke and fidgets with his top. its weirdly awkward ???? and i just feel fucking tension between them

thats excluding that during the actual pushups bvrgah boy is telling him to do more and then praising him when hes done. but ive seen someone talk about that bit before

[0507-worms]

Do you have any fav 0507 fics you could recommend?

to be honest, it's hard for me to say because I'm rather picky when it comes to fics... that being said:

- The Old Man and the Shi(dou)

shidou gives kazui a back massage The Fic. has very nice kazui introspection, and is also kind of emotionally devastating... kazui's back pain is incredibly hashtag relatable

- milgram normie au

shidou moves into a new neighbourhood and begins a fling with his dilf neighbour because of said neighbour's bastard child. it's a cute premise and written from shidou's pov :) the second work is more 0507-focused but it's also a bit suggestive (although not explicit), so apologies if it puts anyone off.

ik these are very. Vague descriptors but I don't want to go into too much detail since that would mean spoiling all the bits that Get To Me and those are best experienced blind. all I will say is that quite a few passages from these live in my head rent-free :)c

also here are some that don't drive me quite as insane, but are enjoyable nonetheless:

- The Warden is Fine (Or... maybe not?) not necessarily 0507-centric as it's about them taking care of a sick es, however the interactions between them are sweet :) - i've got you an 0507 chapter from a drabble collection! protective kazui is nice to read :] - An Imposter Among Us incredible piece of literature, it's a wonder I can even comprehend its sheer genius. 10/10 would sussy baka again

also also because I'm normal here are some fics where they're not as prevalent but still drive me Nuts:

- haruka sakurai versus cold and flu season haruka is kazui's adopted son in this one, and 0507 only appears at the end, but it's a cute fic and their interaction makes me smile

- beautiful boy another adopted haruka fic, with some sprinklings of 0507 :) again, they're more prevalent at the end but what is there is incredibly wholesome... there's some interesting character exploration here and it's fun seeing them come together as a family :)c also shidou is flustered at one point and that's adorable

I hope this list is sufficient! ofc you can always read my stuff Wink Wink <- has only written one fic (but I'm working on more!!)

[dashiellqvverty]

im so excited about being specs its like perfect for me because he really doesnt have that many lines (possibly the fewest of the named newsies?? but im not actually sure lmao) but i still get a COUPLE of lines including some tiny little singing solo lines. so its not overwhelming for me but i still feel like im Playing A Character

[nihiltism]

ok so while my ds is getting sand poured into it at alarming rates I'm thinking about how jrpgs in specific have a really weird desync with How Important Death Is. like some address it better than others but it very frequently happens where if you take a step back youll go "am I wild or is everybody just like, Really down with murder in this game". and consequences for said murder, especially in a characterization sense but even just actual physical consequences, don't really happen? unless it's a vehicle for conflict but like. when it is a vehicle for conflict it feels weird because why are These Guys actually taking the fact we killed somebody in broad daylight seriously and coming after us for it while all the other npcs and even the main party took it like it was another saturday evening

see I Think where the issue lies is in the fact that everything is in its own little world when you're in a battle? like. when you fight an enemy and you get leather out of it it's seen as something the enemy Drops and not. their hide. when you defeat a character in a battle it does just feel like you Defeated them. unless there's dialogue afterwards that says otherwise you don't even mentally assume you killed em you just wounded them enough to make them flee or dissolve or whatever. and it's Weird to just. have that assumption there because for a lot of games it really isn't clear if you're killing them or defeating them !!

that last point is extra important when you have the specific brand of Skittish Hero / Noble Hero Who Doesn't Kill People / Rational Hero In Way Over Their Head or whatever where you really don't think they Would kill a guy just to get them out of the way. in that case it's REALLY weird because it's hardly brought up. even if it Is brought up that that guy Sure Did Die the mc doesn't tend to actually have a reaction ??? and I don't know why this is ???? like Any written reaction would be more interesting than nothing even if the guy doesn't have a full on crisis about taking another life having them go "oh shit, The Consequences" would be nice. really anything except (oh cool we can advance the plot now).

I will also mention that Some deaths do matter plot wise but very frequently what makes them matter is how much of it is linked to an in game battle I think. if your mc just finishes a fight and comes back to the overworld and the guy's Disappeared or Dissolved or whatever it means they don't matter. if the guy's still around after the fight it means it's more significant, especially if they're still alive but wounded or Really Shaken Up. because this clears up the indistinguishable line between if a battle is lethal or not and if a character decides to deal a finishing blow now it's Way more telling of their character. even though this is basically the same thing that happened in the (killed In A Battle) scenario. just with more dialogue. I will also mention that the person who deals the finishing blow is Rarely Ever that good hearted protagonist and often they'll even go :0 at somebody else committing a murder despite them instigating and helping murder quite a few people. just. In Battle. so it's less bad. I guess.

this is leaving out the fact that in party deaths are often a Major Major Blow because like. ok that's fair. that's A Guy You Knew that's understandable. anyway I don't really know where I'm going with this I just think it's interesting how in these types of games death can swap from not mattering at all to mattering a Lot and if u don't think about it too hard u don't even question it. I'll probably be putting some examples in the tags idk

[mystmesstolemysoul]

me: Seven...?

707: ye?

me: how much does Zen hate cats?

707: oh, he doesn't actually hate them, he just gets violently ill

me: oh thank God. I have three cats I'm unwilling to part with, and if Zen threatens that it won't work out.

zen: *long-suffering sigh (except it's a struggle because he can't breathe out of his nose because cats)*
