After watching the Hetalia english dub, the disparity between the interpretations of the Western and Eastern fandoms suddenly make a lot more sense�� a lot of the lines were changed so much to cater to localization to the point that the characters’ personalities became completely warped from the Japanese version. 😯

#hetalia #teatime talks #Although I would have to agree that the English dub is hilarious and written with so much comedic skill #A lot of the scenes that were supposed to be serious and emotional were glossed over by jokes in the dub #The only ones whose personalities stayed the same with the original work are America and France #It also makes sense why Asakiku is less popular in the west hahaha #Their sweet moments were replaced with sarcastic quips u_u #If you think the UKxJP ship makes no sense please watch the sub and read the manga instead

kids when they hear that their dad is back in town VS. kids when theyre hanging out with a conman that accidentally stole their wallet once

im not even joking btw

bonus heres me being crazy about them in dms ^^^

#mob psycho 100 #mp100 #shou suzuki #sho suzuki #reigen arataka #i know sho doesnt actually BELIEVE his dad is back but even just that split second reaction is a weird one to have over your dad coming bac #he was like 'say sike rn... wait that aint right.'#shou watching them on the bottom floor while being isolated up in the corner at the end of the third stage play. and saying #'it's nice that they're so easygoing.' all wistfully???? im killing somebody #reigen calling him a poor thing and worrying about him DESPITE knowing his mischievous ways. ugh #gonna quote my reaction to clip rq #'bro [shou] heard him [reigen] talking about guardianship over children and making sure theyre safe over anything else and was like-#'this is getting too real for me i gotta make fun of him immediately.''#idc WHAT yall think to ME that was such a thick layer of defense mechanism that even though reigen's guardianship speech wasnt directed #at Sho he still felt the intrinsic urge to shoot back because of what hes experienced with people who are SUPPOSED to be protecting him.#would yall believe me if i told you i am totally insane #there are SO MANY THINGS. woven into their interactions that really enhance it #its totally silly! yes! but also! it is a legitimate ARC of GROWTH within their relationship! we watch as Sho starts off #with no trust in the man at all (although for a pretty good reason)#and over time he realizes hes NOT total shitbag #of course this doesnt mean hes completely vulnerable with him. its easy to infer that his distrust in certain people is formed from #a lifetime of being let down and incapability of dependency on certain trusted adults. his defense must be so heavily built up #even after gaining some sort of trust from Shou Reigen will NOT be exempt from his impish defense mechanisms.#sho will not make himself emotionally available as he would then be open to being hurt by someone else he thought could trust #his 'carefree and prankish' behavior is the wall between himself and such an intense feeling of disappointment and hurt and loneliness #but i like to think hes also just silly. hehe #man that stage play huh. shoots every fatal drug directly into my bloodstream #shou's trust and father issues VS stupid conman who has the common sense to not let children be beat up by grown ass adults. who will win.#i mightve forgotten something but. i think this is pretty packed full already so i am pleased. thank you for reading <3 #meowmeow art

actually so evil how much of hal's internal world gets obliterated with the rewriting of his relationships with jessica and martin.

#hal jordan #empyrean posting #ok going in the tags because im not actually v confident in my understanding of his character. i read all of his 80s/90s stuff but forgot #90% of it but ANYWAY.#so much of him just does not make sense with how geoff johns characterises him and his relationships with his parents particularly the #parallax stuff simply because of how much his relationship with the guardians and their apathy/'betrayal' is influenced by hal's original #relationship with his dad. like at its heart it's pretty much the same dynamic in how hal blindly trusts and sort of idolises the guardians #despite their repeated infractions in hope of... something in return just as he had with his father and the abuse he suffered at martin's #hands. that's what makes his anger at the guardians make sense when it does show itself because the relationship parallel didn't stop there.#as with martin hal gets nothing for his devotion. he gets nothing for doing everything that's asked of him and more and it ends the same way #too: with a man in the sky burning like a newborn star. and you lose so much of that nuance and intrigue behind that if you just make #jessica the 'bad one' because!!! you cheapen it!!!!#the whole idea of hal is that he has his father's face but his mother's scars #(to me). in the sense that they both reacted to martin the same way with that cognisance of who he was as a man yet inability to pull away #because... love. both the love they had for him and the conviction that he did or could love them too. and jessica arguably did eventually #but also she didnt did she? because she held onto that notion of love till the very end. the few scraps she had she ballooned outwards until #they became the whole. but hal didnt have even that and he spent his whole life chasing it & running away from wanting it at the same time #like i think there's something so interesting to the fact that he had to be convinced that flying was what he wanted to do. how much of that #was touched by his father? the fear that he was already too much like him than he could bear to be? he already had his face now he had his #dreams and longing for the sky. how much more could he have before he began repeating the cycle?#and at the end he even had his father's death. burning in the clouds. like there's so much there and that's not even touching on how it #impacts his relationships with other heroes. not just in the sense of why did kyle clark and diana get to keep their close yet complex #relationships with their moms when hal had to lose his (although yeah why did they) but also just how he lets himself come across to them.#because it's on purpose right? that he lets them think his reflection of his father is born out of unadulterated love for a man worthy of it #? he has his father's job he wears his father's jacket he smiles his father's smile. what else are they supposed to think.#and isnt that interesting!!! that this man who is so committed to being good & just can lie so casually to people he thinks of as friends!!!#can you see how that might be his mother through and through!!! in how she might have glossed over the abuse to other people and herself!!!#can you see how in spite of it all he might want to be perceived as his father that paragon of masculinity and resent that he is not!!!#do you understand how everything he loves has been poisoned!!! im thinking of that scene where he tells bruce about watching martin die &#wouldnt it have been so much more interesting through this lens. how he is both revealing & obfuscating at once. i hate the change sm

realizing that i am an outlier in fandoms because i do not ship anyone with anyone

#like yes i know there are characters that are canonically in relationships and im cool with that #or characters that have connections with others and fans interpret as relationships #its just that i dont particularly care nor feel any urge to “ship”#its like each character exists in a somewhat closed vacuum of being without me needing to interfere if that makes sense #even as a child i didnt ship... i would SAY that i ship char x char only because i thought that doing so was the expectation #but in my mind i simply was like “yeah they click according to the fans. and im a fan so i should say they click”#even with ships i DO like i dont ship.#its like seeing a work in a gallery and thinking “thats cool!” but not wanting to bring it home and display it in your house #< actually thats pretty accurate in describing how i feel #dont get me wrong i am fine with everyone else shipping its just not for me #id say a part of it is because im romance repulsed aro but even then lots of us ship stuff #just some more personal rambles!#although i suppose its nice not to be sucked into shipping wars and stuff. peace and love in my kingdom #rivera writes #shipping #aromantic #romance repulsed #rivera lore

Idk if this is controversial, but studying for a English/writing degree at university shouldn’t make you NOT want to engage with writing or literature. Just a thought.

#the amount of times one of my literature professors presented us with the worst reading or interpretation (some of which were just plain #revolting) of a piece of literature almost as if she were expecting us to like it just because it was sensational and me and everyone else #going ‘um. no. sorry. not only does that make no sense but now I kind of want to throw up��#I just came here to read some gothic lit and honestly I’m feeling so attacked right now. (my fault for signing up for gothic lit I suppose)#her English survey class made me never want to look at the written word again #however I know this isn’t me having an issue with survey classes (although the rate they make you read at is kind of ridiculous and I read #fast: case in point for one of them I had to read Huck Finn in 9 days)#because I took American Survey from another professor and it was really challenging but probably the best course I ever took at university #I was not expecting to develop such a distaste for the academic world at uni but maybe that’s just my university (whenever I complain about #this my mom always tells me I need to watch Dead Poet’s Society lol)#siggggghhh anyway. hoping for some better classes with my exchange program (although none of them are writing/English as I’m almost #finished with my degree)#english lit #university #english #college

#Nothing to say. A good episode. A good season.#I love Oda. I love his voice perhaps even more lol #I should look for an improvement of the video quality... To say it's 1080px mkv :/ But the latest upload on N/yaa is too heavy #The op visuals of the untold origins arc are very good. The songs are good too #Although I suppose I may just be nostalgic ahah #I like fuku/fuku... Especially this young bittersweet flavour #Fuku/fuku have so many “couple who for some reason broke up but who still love each other more than anyone else” in this episode.#What do you mean they keep calling each other.#What do you mean Fukuchi won't hesitate to help Fukuzawa even after he refused to join his group.#Mmmmhhh... One more thing #There's so much emphasis on Christianity in bsd. It makes sense for Atsushi and Dostoyevsky I suppose due to the irl authors‚ but...#Why was Oda handed a Bible in this episode? Why was Ango carrying a Bible with him in the Beast movie?#When you take into account that Christianity only makes for 1.5% of religious believers in Japan‚ it's just curious.#But maybe I'm missing something? Was Oda-author Christian too?#Then again I can really feel this wider underlying pattern which... Exceeds the characters in a way?#It's mostly details so it'd be hard to list them but... Idk.#Why was there a cross behind Kunikida when he witnessed the little child die.#🤔#That would be all. This season is very beautiful and I love Mushitarou but can't WAIT to get back to Atsushi I miss him 🥺🥺🥺#random rambles

Rumours of Anne’s bad temper continued to circulate, along with the belief that she was no better than a ‘harlot’. Chapuys [...] accused Anne of plotting Catherine of Aragon and her daughter Mary’s deaths. There is no evidence, however, to corroborate such a claim. [...] Meanwhile, Chapuys continued to claim that Anne had, for some time, ‘conspired and wished for the death of the said ladies [Catherine and Mary]’. While of course the rivalry was undeniable, there is no evidence of any murder plot by Anne in any other contemporary sources.

Thorns, Lust, and Glory: The Betrayal of Anne Boleyn, Estelle Paranque

#i mean...yeah.#that really is kind of it.#the thing of it is that there were several diplomats at the english courts; all writing dispatches to their masters #all with contacts to as many court factions as they were able to get intelligence and audiences with #including those opposed to the boleyns #and yet the most notorious of chapuys' claims (the above; and one other) are never corroborated by anyone else #the only 'corroboration 'comes from imperial sources outside of england who are simply repeating what chapuys has reported. like dr ortiz #estelle paranque #interesting that she addressed it twice -- although as this book is very strictly chronological #i suppose it makes sense...as he claimed it at least two separate points on the timeline

As much as I love playing embrace Dark Urge runs (discussion in therapy pending), there's something so narratively satisfying about how a Resist Durge playthrough can go once you get to the Bhaal Temple. Your character steps into the ring with Orin, it's intended to be a duel, but odds are you're getting eviscerated pretty quickly. You then switch to one of your other characters in your party and throw an attack, effectively breaking the duel and setting the whole temple upon you.

(Adding a cut because this ended up being longer than I thought)

But, I think it's a very satisfying way to play. Your party members have grown fond of your Durge, seeing them as a friend, a family member, even a lover. They've watched you and your pain over your Urge and what it makes you do or want to do. Maybe you've slipped up once or twice, but you've been trying so hard to be the hero they know you can be, that Faerûn needs. So, when it comes time to finally face your demons and you're getting so horribly hurt in the process, they can't help but rush to your defense. It'll put all of them in danger, but it doesn't matter because they want and need to help you, their ally and companion.

Bonus points if you select your character's romanced companion as the savior/duel interruptor to make it extra delicious. They've fallen in love with you, stayed with you when your Urge craved their blood the most, maybe by this point in the game you've helped put their demons down as well. They see you in pain, a final valiant effort to overcome your Urge against the power of Orin, a whole cult, a god of murder himself. They want to protect you, save you as you saved them.

I'm also fond of the extra beauty of Astarion being your Resist Durge romance since it puts the two of you in very similar situations. Fighting against the will of your masters, finally defeating your demons with your newfound companions' help and being offered the greatest power you could ever fathom... only to deny it, ignore power in favor of your party and your love.

This isn't even mentioning just how goddamn good the Withers resurrecting you cutscene is. This skeleton in your camp with unknown and unfathomable power (also apparently supposed to be Jergal himself if I've done my research properly?) is able to bring you back to life, free of your Urge. The line along the lines of "Bhaal could only destroy what of you that he knew, but because you've grown past your Urge and become your own person, he couldn't destroy that new growth" is just so weirdly powerful narratively. Tav may be a default character for you to create upon making a new save file, but Durge is the canon protagonist and I think that entire scene shows it the best. It's a beautiful secondary climax of the narrative (primary being battling the Netherbrain of course).

And, perhaps it's just an oversight on Larian's part or something that'd be a bit difficult to work into the cutscenes mechanically, but I think that it could only get more impactful if your companions could comfort each other during these moments. Everyone and their mother wishes you could hug Astarion after he kills Cazador, but also imagine your romanced companion cradling your body after Bhaal kills you. It seems just a little odd that they all (meaning your party) kinda just stand around staring at your corpse, especially with how close y'all have gotten.

Idk, I have a lot of thoughts about this section of the game in this particular type of playthrough and some of them are hard to articulate into words. It's just such a damn good narrative peak and can really make you feel things.

I've completed I think two resist Durge runs and just hit this point on my third and it really stuck out to me this time (then again my new antidepressants are kinda fucking with me so that might be playing a role). I left it as my last mission before dealing with the Netherbrain and I think it helped build the anticipation of that moment. Everyone else has been helped by you, and now it's your turn to come into your own. I really felt so connected to my character walking into the temple, feeling like everything has been building to this, that regardless of what happens our suffering will finally end. And you have your party there to help you in your time of greatest need as you've done for them.

There's a reason this game was Game of the Year, the narrative is just so powerful and the replay-ability is just insane. I've beaten this game ten times, heading for my eleventh and it truly just never gets old and never fails to make me feel so many things so strongly.

#we're gonna bypass how i have the withers big naturals mod installed #because it kinda undercuts the moment when withers comes in to resurrect you and he has these massive honkers #i'm a big fan of embrace durges since it's a great way for me to let loose without real world consequence #(my anticipation for patch 7 grows daily of course)#and it's also just fun to be your worst self and create the fucking legion of doom with your party #you'll never beat the sheer power of an evil durge/ascended astarion/dark justiciar shadowheart/minthara team up #I AM FULLY AWARE I AM SINNING WHEN I ASCEND ASTARION AND IT PAINS ME EVERY TIME BUT I LIKE EVIL NARRATIVES SUE ME #but a resist durge run makes me feel so many more things #helping shadowheart with her family helping astarion learn to be his best self free from cazador lifting the shadow curse among other things #plus everything I mentioned in the main post #and then the final crescendo of the score at the end of the epilogue party cutscene is a HUGE chills moment #although i will always be mad that in order to keep gale from ascending you have to make him seek forgiveness from mystra #she should be apologizing to him wtf no wonder i accidentally ascended him so many times him #gale telling her to shove it just MAKES MORE SENSE and is the healthier thing to do but it gets you his fucking bad ending wth #okay i suppose him blowing himself up is his bad ending but whatever #apparently him exploding the netherbrain can get you the win for honor mode and as someone who can't even get through balanced mode #you bet your sweeeeeet ass i'm not above sending gale to blow himself up to avoid a run ending fight if i got that far #honor mode is not about getting the ending you want it's just about completeing it and dude there's no way in hell i'll get close otherwise #i'll shut up now #fishgills speaks #fishgills plays bg3 #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #the dark urge #bg3 durge

WIP

hi, I'm bori, I'm gonna turn this into a proper intro when I have time but in short! i'm a 21yo girl, I have noticed my views started to shift, and I made this account to explore the ideas of radical feminism, open up a dialog and seek out the opinions and guidance of other women. so far, I've always been in very q*eer circles both irl and on line. a huge portion of my irl friends and close ones are trans/q*eer - this change of views is truly a huge deal to me. i feel as I am betraying those I love, but the internal conflict is gnawing at me, thus driving me to make this account. I hope it'll bring me peace; a conclusion.

besides that: im bi, a slav, vegan, i love nature, birds, reading, some fandoms I dabble in, being silly, kindness in the face of struggle and so on and so forth. i am mentally ill, and a SA victim, but I'm not disclosing more than that for now. toxic yuri can save the world. bye! :)

#~bori?!#about #making this so I don't look like a weird empty lurking blog... although I suppose I am lurking in a sense #the truth being I feel as if I am being shaken by internal turmoil; either a huge change is about to happen or ill end up more reassured #in my 'current' believes - with a better understanding on the other 'side'#dunno... did any of you also feel like this? change is supposed to be uncomfortable but I love my friends and close ones #~yuri; save me yuri!#~oh; us women...#~reading; again and again #~resoucers aplenty #🪴#🦄

For the character asks, Blanche. Questions 8, 10 & 12 😊

hiii friend!! thank you for the questions!! <3

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

Oh wow. This is a dangerous question, haha!

‘Despise' is a pretty strong word. I feel like the one thing I really can't stand is character assassination (although this is true for every character I like, to be honest). I'm not the authority on what makes Blanche Blanche, of course, but I have seen a few instances when it felt like people only saw the superficial parts of her and forgot about everything else, you know what I mean? Thankfully that's pretty rare around these parts though :)

There's one thing that's more specifically Blanche-related that's a pet-peeve of mine, and it’s the accent thing. I don't really like it when accents are explicitly written down in fanfic, and since Blanche is the one with the strongest accent in the cast, this happens to her sometimes. I just want to point out that this is not wrong per se, it's just a me thing! I prefer to 'hear’ the accent in my mind while I read — if I have to stop and parse the meaning of a sentence mid-action, it's harder for me to fully immerse myself in the story. I don't mind the occasional truncation of a 'g' at the end of a verb, or the odd 'y'all' in a phrase, but if every sentence is written like that it does get a bit hard for me 😅 once again though, this is just my personal preference, and I definitely don't despise the practice.

10. Could you be best friends with this character?

I'm actually not sure how to answer this! If we didn't know each other at all, I think we'd need to be in a situation where we have to spend some time together in order to become friends (like, idk, working together or something like that). We don't share lots of interests (appreciation for art aside), and her passion for men would definitely throw me off at the beginning, so I'd need a reason to spend time with her to get to know her! But we are more similar than we seem, so once I did get to know her better, I'd love to be her friend :) we'd probably drive each other crazy on some things, but I need someone to get me out of my comfort zone at times, and she'd probably benefit from having a more 'grounded' friend, in the same way she benefits from having Dorothy as a friend.

... of course, this is all assuming that she'd want to be my friend in the first place, which is not a given 😂 I'm probably not interesting or fun enough to convince her to give me a chance, but a gal can dream, you know?

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

Just one? :')

I've said it before on here, but I headcanon that she's a cover hog. It just makes sense to me! And, still related to sleep, I feel like this is basically canon, but she's a night owl. She's more active during the night, she sleeps in, and it takes her a while to wake up in the mornings.

She actually is knowledgeable about art -- but not necessarily about artists! I think she likely doesn't have a lot of formal education about art (and especially art history), and even if she did study anything related to it she doesn't strike me as an exceptional student overall, but she has a natural instinct for visual beauty -- she's great at things like recognizing which paintings were made with similar techniques or within the same artistic current, distinguishing the traits and characteristics of painters, identifying specific shades of colour, this kind of stuff. Show her a painting and she'll correctly tell you that it's a Van Gogh, how he painted it, the precise shades of colour he chose and why he chose them -- but she also doesn't know that he cut off his ear, you know?

She was a bit of a reckless driver, especially in her youth -- the kind who likes to hit the gas just a tad too much, who plays the music just a tad too loud. She likes acting larger than life, she likes having fun, and she likes attention, so this feels appropriate for her. I figure it probably wasn't noticeable because she rarely drove herself (she always had a gentleman at her side to drive her around), but she never really grew out of that particular trait -- until George's death. After that, I think any imprudence behind the wheel would evoke his accident in her mind, so by the time the Girls met her she had turned into a very conscientious driver.

Thank you, these were so much fun to answer!! I love love love talking about Blanche <3

[CHARA CTER ASK GAME!!! 💫]

#as if it wasn’t clear already LMAO #honestly I feel like when it comes to fandom lots of things can work very well if done properly #i don’t mind the occasional out of character moment in fanon work if it’s done well #lots of things can go into people’s perception and interpretation of a character #but it’s one thing to do this out of love. it’s quite another to transform a character because of dislike #or a refusal to see them outside of their ‘box’#wilfully ignoring everything that makes them what they are. you know what I mean?#i cannot read through accents. i cannot. I’ve been going crazy reading Dracula because there’s entire pages written in mock-accents #and the mf writes like a letter every three??? how am I supposed to follow the story man 😭#i really don’t know about the friendship thing! I would love to be Blanche’s friend (although she’d drive me crazy at times)#and she might want to be my acquaintance at least? I’m not a threat to her position as the queen bee when it comes to men #(and also in general)#but I’m also not sure I have enough to offer her to convince her to open up with me in a way? if that makes sense #(although let’s be real. if I actually met Blanche in real life the gay panic would take over and I would not be able to utter a word)#sorry those are like 5 headcanons in a trenchcoat :’) hope you like them!!#and thanks again!#the golden girls #ask game

i really don't want to come across like those people who vehemently denied the ending of bbc sherlock when it dropped but like. there's no way that actual slop of an extra chapter is real bc if it is idk man
