I see these takes and I think there's a common misunderstanding.
After wallowing in his past, trying to find his own identity, he chose to move on. He didn’t forget, he didn’t stop loving Maria, but he decided he wanted to go forward with his life rather than staying stuck in the past.
This is an important part of healing; you can’t get better until you actually want to.
He said goodbye to his old self. It doesn’t erase what he went through or how it shaped him, it doesn’t mean he no longer cares about Maria and Gerald, it means he no longer wanted to be miserable. He was able to forgive himself.
This is one reason I'm not a huge fan of Shadow doing things solely "for Maria". After everyone kept pulling him in different directions, a part of his journey was finally choosing for himself and living for himself.
Shadow determines his own destiny.
#shadow the hedgehog#i also see polar opposite sides of the argument and this applies too#the end point isn't shadow ''getting over it'' like it never happened#it's him making his own choices and living for himself#no longer letting the shackles of his past be used for manipulation#it's why when mephiles tried to tap into that lust for revenge it didn't work#because he decided he was the one in control of his life#he's in charge not his trauma#he didn't forget he didn't stop caring but he finally forgave#anyways another instance of complaining about a lack of nuance when reducing a situation to black and white

TOH is so incredibly fanficy, despite being an original show.
I really won't get over how they made Huntlow a thing and wasted a full hourish episode to make it happen.
Frankly, it's nbd for Willow to date someone by the time the story ends. Her dating someone doesn't kneecap her story. But Hunter dating her definitely kneecaps his, because Willow is not relevant to the whole Caleb/Evelyn and Philip drama like Luz is.
It makes no sense, from a narrative standpoint, to have Hunter like Willow. It feels like they really wanted to give Willow a love interest and Hunter was the only option they had to work with.
With Hunter it's like... him getting a witch love interest is something that pretty much needs to happen from a narrative standpoint.... but Willow isn't that LI. The only character who fits Evelyn's themes is Luz. He and Luz are the "Caleb" and "Evelyn" in this story - no other character's fit these roles like they do.
"But TOH is a tragedy -"
"But TOH is a subversion of romantic-"
TBH I really don't want to hear how TOH is a romantic tragedy or a subversion of romantic expectations because... it isn't. I have read romantic tragedies and subversions and this isn't paced like either. They also put a whole ass Lunter kiss in a spoiler episode, so I really don't think they were planning on making TOH a subversion of romantic expectations or writing Luz's and Hunter's romance as a tragic one.
See, this pairing is extremely confusing to me, because if they actually were planning on Hunter and Willow being a thing from the beginning and not Hunter and Luz, then Willow would have been written into all of Luz's and Hunter's episodes - which just so happen to be his important character arc moments [ST, HP and HM].
But... they don't do that, like at all lmao. I'm also not a fan of Hunter's friendship with Willow and Gus, but that's a discussion for another time.
#toh critical#going to the human realm was a mistake but I ''forgave'' TTT because it brought the Caleb/Evelyn and Philip murder drama to the forefront#and had the set-up for Hunter and Luz [Caleb and Evelyn] to be the ones who kick Philip's ass in the Climax#but then it goes off of the fucking RAILS to make Hunter and Willow a thing and it's like#I want to put Dana and company in petri dishes bc what the hell is going on lmao. Why did you guys want Huntlow to be a thing#anyways. I will never watch another show where Dana is on the writing team bc she is a fanfic girlie#btw there's nothing wrong with fanfic. it's just that when I watch a cartoon from a world renowned studio#i expect the writing to not be fanficy. on an unrelated note...#i still think its funny how Hunter has made more of an effort to make amends with Willow and Gus for his screw up#than Amity has in two whole seasons.

I watched the entire AsuCaga Archangel med bay scene again in Seed Destiny, and I'm just gonna break it down because quite honestly, I actually think there's a lot of explicit understanding between Athrun and Cagalli on everything that happened before this moment in Seed Destiny, and an equal amount of implicit forgiveness on both sides to reconcile, take a step back (and let other things take priority over their relationship), and start over (where we ultimately end up with the Archangel departure hug and Athrun saying there's no need for them to rush). This feels especially true when you take Seed Freedom into account as well.
(This is, in fact, very much brought on by the recent drama on AsuCaga twitter over how Fukuda said Athrun never said he forgave Cagalli and still hasn't, and me sitting there going "... okay Mr. Director let me just go watch that again, in the HD remaster edition, because that scene sure as hell didn't read that way to me in both versions of that scene.)
TL;DR - Fukuda might be the director, but I think in this case, he might want to refresh his own memory because the dialogue and the way everything happens between them from that moment sure doesn't feel like there's any true grudges/lack of forgiveness on either side.
Long version behind the cut.
Scene opens, Cagalli and Athrun talk about Meyrin, Cagalli assures Athrun she'll see to it Meyrin's well taken care of, alongside Cagalli (correctly) guessing that Meyrin liked Athrun all along despite him never having said more than 2 words to her (on screen) before he runs into her room to hide at Gibraltar.
This is then followed by Cagalli hesitantly asking if Athrun will forgive her, to which he says, and I quote, "That's what I should be asking you. I should be apologizing." And it's said in this soft and regretful tone of voice on his part (thank you Ishida-san). When Cagalli then very specifically brings up the fact she tried to get married (to someone else), Athrun doesn't even sound angry over it like he did at Crete - he just responds with "You wanted to protect Orb", because in the time in-between, he finally understood why she did it. And he then explains himself, that essentially he couldn't stand being the "powerless" Alex Dino any longer, that he wanted (needed) power as Athrun Zala to help the people he cares most about, especially when Cagalli's the one shouldering everything herself. He then further explains after the Break the World incident he really just wanted to stop the war from happening and that's why he did what he did and Cagalli agrees, adding "But it's hard. Everyone wants to stop it, and everyone says so. So why won't it happen? ... Is there really nothing we can do about it?" And Athrun disagrees, convinced they can stop the war (and they eventually do), before the scene changes to Lacus on the Eternal.
Everything in this scene between them is spoken very calmly and warmly - there's no anger coming from either of them, there's a sense of helplessness on Cagalli's part when the conversation shifts towards what can be done to stop the war, but it's otherwise a conversation where they're both reaching an understanding with each other for why each of them did what they did that ended up hurting the other. And in that sense, there's a feeling of reconciliation here, that they've both matured from the previous (checks notes) 38 episodes of events and Athrun, in particular, understands now what she was trying to do, and has had enough time to process all of that to be able to talk to her about it, without any anger (that burned itself out, in my opinion, after Crete - but the conversation at Crete was also muddied by what happened during the Battle of Dardanelles). There's no lingering resentment from either side with how the conversation flows and how they talk to each other either - had Athrun truly not forgiven Cagalli, he wouldn't be able to meet her in the middle like this and respond to her request for forgiveness with what's essentially a "That's my line, I messed up too".
Is it a direct apology? No. That said, it's not like Cagalli outright said she's forgiven Athrun either, but the way they both talk and relate to each other in that moment in Archangel's med bay definitely feels like they've mutually forgiven each other implicitly and reconciled with each other for what happened during their time apart. Followed by Cagalli taking his ring off (to focus on being Orb's head of state), Athrun recognizing that Cagalli's top priority isn't "being his girlfriend" when this is her chance to reclaim the power she should've had all along, and Athrun (to a degree) recognizing he can be patient and wait for her (while working on himself and have power of his own - which he does by the end, when he chooses to live as Athrun Zala again instead of incognito as Alex Dino).
And by Seed Freedom, they've both gotten themselves into positions where they won't make those same mistakes again - in my opinion Cagalli was working with better intel than Lacus was during the entire Foundation Conflict thanks to Athrun (the only reason Cagalli wasn't able to get ahead of Foundation more is because Aura and Orphee kept just enough under wraps to get the jump on them, but once Requiem entered the picture Cagalli was ready), and Cagalli gave Athrun the Infinite Justice Type II complete with a new flight pack (based on Strike Rouge's Ootori Striker pack no less) disguised as a Z'Gok so he'd have the power to follow through with his decisions in the field.
(As for the Cavalier Aifrid units - I'm of the mindset it's Athrun who came up with them. The design looks like it has more in common with ZAFT-based tech like the Guul and both Fatum sub-lifters used by the previous two incarnations of the Justice, plus the remote control system feels like something Athrun would come up just for Cagalli so she could fight without ever having to leave Orb. I guess we'll see what official supplemental materials say on that, if they ever decide to say one way or the other.)
#gundam seed destiny#gundam seed freedom#cagalli yula athha#athrun zala#asucaga#yeah i call bs on they haven't forgiven each other#the way that entire scene is scripted and the way the bgm is scored#they definitely forgave each other with the amount of mutual understanding and definitely reconciled in that moment#even if they both recognize their relationship isn't the most important thing to both of them in that exact moment#because right then it's Orb for Cagalli and stopping the war for Athrun#and Athrun recognizes that even if they stop this one war there will be future ones too#so he realizes that their paths are in line with each other's so they'll end up side by side one way or another#it's just a matter of when things calm down enough for them to let their relationship be more of a priority#so I interpret that scene as both of them implicitly forgiving each other for the things they did#and it was just a matter of if or how they were going to pick up what's left of their relationship and get back together again

[ 𝚌𝚑𝚒𝚋𝚊 𝚗𝚊𝚘𝚖𝚒'𝚜 𝚝𝟸 𝚟𝚘𝚒𝚌𝚎 𝚍𝚛𝚊𝚖𝚊 ] 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚙𝚎𝚘𝚙𝚕𝚎-𝚙𝚕𝚎𝚊𝚜𝚎𝚛'𝚜 𝚛𝚊𝚐𝚎
naomi's vd is here!! i can't wait to see what her verdict is gonna be this time. i've recently finished working on her t3 mv concept and it's actually my favorite one rn, so.. hehe >:3
Warnings for Naomi's VD: None
Warnings for Naomi's MV: None, except a child dies, but the description isn't that detailed.
(sounds of footsteps)
Miki: .. Eiji-san?
Eiji: What?
Miki: U-uh..
Miki: I just thought you wanted to talk about..
Miki: Well, what happened earlier.
Eiji: W-what do you want me to say??
Eiji: Yes, I know how weird it is. Yes, I know that Shun wasn't supposed to be able to touch me.
Eiji: I.. I don't understand how this happened either.
Eiji: We're literally the guards of this prison. Aren't we supposed to always be protected? Aren't we supposed to be safe?
Eiji: W-what did go wrong?..
Eiji: Does this mean that the prisoners can easily hurt us anytime they want?..
Miki: If Ishizu-san was able to touch you..
Miki: Does that mean that I'm also-
Eiji: NO!
Eiji: Uh.. I mean..
Eiji: I-I will protect you if anything goes wrong. Trust me.
Miki: ...
Miki: T-thank you, Eiji-san..
Miki: A-and I will protect you too, of course!
Eiji: You already did, actually.
Miki: And I'll do it again if I have to!
Eiji: .. Heh, fine.
Eiji: But still..
Eiji: "Just why was Shun able to touch me? I swear there's always been something protecting us."
Eiji: "I don't remember Akio and Aimi being able to touch us either.. though I don't think they had even tried to do that."
Eiji: "And if it turns out that the other prisoners are also capable of that-"
Eiji: !
Miki: Eiji-san, are you okay??
Eiji: Y-yeah, sorry.
Eiji: We have to focus on interrogating the fourth prisoner. I doubt that she will try to hurt us.
Eiji: ".. But Kei will."
Eiji: "I-it's okay, I don't think he's strong enough to do that right now."
(the door opens)
Naomi: Ah, hello, Eiji-san and Miki-san.
Miki: H-hello..
Eiji: Let's just get started already.
Naomi: Is everything okay, Eiji-san? You seem kind of.. nervous.
Eiji: I'm fine.
Miki: Ah, Chiba-san..
Miki: Can you help me with something, please?
Naomi: Huh? Sure.. But what do I have to do exactly?
Miki: C-can you hold my hand?..
Miki: I know this sounds weird, but I just.. have to see something.
Naomi: But aren't the prisoners-
Naomi: .. Okay then.
Naomi: ...
Naomi: You remember that it's impossible for us to touch you, right?
Eiji: ".. So Naomi still can't touch us."
Eiji: "Then why-"
Eiji: ".. Wait a minute. What if it's not about who can touch us, but which one of us is more vulnerable?"
Eiji: "And if Naomi still can't touch Miki-"
Naomi: Y-you see, I actually have a question for you two.
Naomi: Sorry, I know you're supposed to interrogate me and I will answer all of your questions, but also..
Naomi: Can you tell me what this is?
Eiji and Miki: !
Naomi: We all got these papers yesterday and..
Naomi: I'm sorry, but what's the meaning of being interrogated again if we have already answered your questions?
Miki: W-what does it say?
Eiji:"Prisoner 004, Chiba Naomi, please answer the questions below. You can write as much or as little as you wish."
Eiji: "Question 01: Do you know why you're here?"
Eiji: "Question 02: Have you committed any other crimes except murder?"
Eiji: And there's just more questions.
Naomi: .. So you two also don't know what all of this means.
Naomi: Well that's weird.
Eiji: You got these yesterday, right? Why do you still have them? Akio, Aimi and Shun haven't mentioned anything like that.
Naomi: I got confused and decided to keep them until I get all the answers. If I'm not wrong, when everyone woke up, they couldn't find their papers anywhere, but I still had mine for some reason.
Naomi: I find it surprising myself. I haven't even tried to hide them..
Naomi: I also haven't answered any of the questions as you can see.
Miki: But who would try and-
Eiji: .. Who else would need to interrogate the prisoners except the prison guards?
Eiji: "Me and Miki didn't do it, so that means.."
Eiji: ".. Another guard did it."
Eiji: ".. Of course. If they're hiding somewhere, but still have to do their job, it means that they have to interrogate everyone in some other way."
Eiji: "But seriously, making the prisoners fill out this questionnaire sounds kind of naive.."
Eiji: "Like, did that guard really expect everyone to tell them about their crimes like that?"
Eiji: "Hold on, it has something on the back-"
Eiji: "If you don't answer all of the questions, you will be punished."
Eiji: ".. Never mind, maybe that guard is smart."
Eiji: Wait, Naomi.
Eiji: You haven't answered the questions, right? Do you know what that means-
Naomi: Yes, I know, Eiji-san. I've seen it.
Naomi: Well, if it really was done by a different guard.. I'll just let them do what they want.
Naomi: Just like I had let you vote me innocent even though I wanted you to vote me guilty.
Eiji: ...
Naomi: So if that was a different guard interrogating us..
Naomi: I guess it's time for me to be interrogated by you two, right?
Naomi: I promise I will cooperate.
Eiji: .. R-right.
Miki: So, Chiba-san, how are you feeling? Is everything okay?
Naomi: I feel.. weird.
Naomi: I mean, I was forgiven even though I had asked you to vote me guilty..
Naomi: I honestly didn't know how to feel after you had told me about my verdict.
Naomi: But in the end, I've simply decided to agree with you.
Eiji: .. Why?
Eiji: I expected more resistance.
Naomi: *laughs* "Resistance"? What did you expect from me?
Naomi: Did you expect me to argue with you? Did you expect me to say there must be something wrong with your judgement and morals?
Naomi: I'm not like that at all.
Naomi: .. It's easier for me to just nod and agree with everything.
Naomi: It's always been like that, haha..
Miki: I-I can relate-
Eiji: Even though you're the oldest prisoner, it's easier for you to just follow orders, huh?
Eiji: Well that's lame.
Naomi: ...
Naomi: Hey, Eiji-san.
Naomi: Aren't you doing the exact same thing?
Eiji: W-what do you mean by that?..
Naomi: I don't think you're doing all of this out of your own free will.
Naomi: You're just following someone's orders, aren't you?
Naomi: But I can tell that you like to think that you're the one who has all the power here, haha.
Naomi: So, Eiji-san..
Naomi: Maybe stop acting just like he did, okay?
Miki: "He"..
Miki: Y-you mean your victim, right?..
Naomi: ...
Naomi: Oh well, looks like it's time to talk about that.
Naomi: Yes, I was talking about my victim.
Eiji: If I'm acting just like he did..
Eiji: .. Did he also call you out for being so weak-willed?
Naomi: This is not me being weak-willed.
Naomi: I'm just trying to survive, just like everybody else here.
Naomi: If you think me agreeing with your decision is a bad sign..
Naomi: Maybe you simply shouldn't have voted me innocent then.
Naomi: Actually, why did you even agree to vote me innocent? Didn't you promise that you will vote me guilty?
Naomi: .. Were you following someone's orders?
Eiji: Y-you!..
Naomi: What's wrong? Are you regretting your decision?
Miki: Chiba-san! Please stop provoking him!
Naomi: I'm not. I'm afraid Eiji-san simply gets angry a bit too easily.
Naomi: But anyway..
Naomi: What questions do you have for me?
Miki: .. S-so, y-your victim was a child, right?
Naomi:*nods* Exactly. He was 10 years old.
Naomi: And he was one of my students.
Eiji: Your victim was your own student..
Naomi: Before you say anything else, Eiji-san, I want to remind you that me being voted innocent was your doing too.
Naomi: And I'm sure you already knew that my victim was my own student.
Naomi: I mean, I'm an elementary school teacher and I keep saying things like "Oh, kids can be so cruel"..
Naomi: I don't have any kids and my younger sister is 27, so..
Naomi: It's obvious that if my victim was a child, it means they were one of my students.
Miki: .. But why?
Miki: Why did you kill your own student?
Miki: I thought you're good with kids and-
Naomi: Everyone thought so, Miki-san.
Naomi: I thought so too.
Naomi: But that kid..
Naomi: He was too much for me to handle.
Naomi: I can't blame him though, considering what his family was like.
Eiji: But did you seriously kill him just because he thought you saying yes to everyone was pathetic?
Naomi: I knew that if I won't shut him up, I will have to continue saying yes to everyone until the end of my life.
Eiji: Oh, so killing a child sounded like a fun way to rebel?
Naomi: Just so you know, Eiji-san, when I heard him say those words, I felt exactly like you did after I said that you're just following someone's orders.
Eiji: BUT THEN WHAT'S THE POINT OF KILLING A CHILD TO FEEL MORE "POWERFUL" AND THEN JUST AGREEING WITH OUR JUDGEMENT EVEN THOUGH YOU WANTED A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VERDICT?!
Naomi: ...
Eiji: .. If you want to fight for your independence, then you should just keep fighting no matter what.
Eiji: You can't just do one thing and say that it's enough. You will never become truly free if you do that.
(the bell rings, machinery sounds)
Naomi: But Eiji-san..
Naomi: Does this mean that being a prison guard is your own way of fighting for your independence?
Eiji: ...
Eiji: We're the ones who are supposed to be asking you questions, not the other way around.
Miki: Um, Chiba-san..
Miki: .. Do you think you will be okay with your verdict this time too?
Naomi: I will accept your judgement no matter what.
Naomi: You two are the guards, after all.
Eiji: .. Even if that kid was an annoying brat, he didn't deserve to be killed just so that you could feel a bit stronger than usual and then let us do whatever we want with you.
Eiji: Is it really you just being weak-willed or is it you being so happy that you got voted innocent that you don't want to change our mind?
Naomi: I'm-
Eiji: Well, whatever it is..
Eiji: Prisoner 004, Naomi, sing your sins!

[ MV Description ]
Her MV would have mostly black, white, gray and darker shades of teal in the beginning, but it would have more red closer to the end.
Naomi is sitting in what appears to be a living room. There are two dark figures sitting on the couch in front of her and it looks like they're talking to her about something. Naomi is listening and nodding, but she also looks kind of anxious and she refuses to look them in the eyes.
"Here you are, telling me that old story again
The story that I already know
Or at least I think that I know"
Suddenly one of the figures stands up and tells Naomi to follow them somewhere. Naomi does exactly that and it looks like that figure wants to show her someone's room. Naomi realizes that it's actually a child's room and looks terrified.
"No, no, I don't need to see it
I already know that I'm "Guilty"
So why are you still trying to make me feel sorry?"
The figure gives her that child's diary and lets her read it before leaving the room. Naomi continues reading the diary and she starts crying.
"I can't believe I found out about this only now
Why didn't you tell me sooner? Why didn't anyone else tell me about this?
You've experienced so much pain, even though your life was so short
Does this mean that I've saved you from all that suffering?"
The setting changes and now Naomi is walking along some kind of dark hallway full of doors with dates written on them. She sees a certain date, gets nervous, but still opens that door.
It looks like she's inside of one of that child's memories now. She sees herself sitting and drinking tea with her students, meanwhile one of the kids, a little boy with orange hair and red eyes, sits alone and nobody wants to talk to him. The "Present!Naomi" puts her hand on his shoulder, but the kid doesn't react.
"I tried to help you, I really did
I saw myself in you, I knew you were struggling
But you still pushed me away
So don't blame me for being a little bit angry"
The setting changes again and now it looks like Naomi is at someone's funeral. She's crying and the two figures from one of the past scenes try to comfort her. Some time passes and now Naomi is visiting that person's grave and even though she looks genuinely sad at first, everything around her starts becoming more red.
"I know I'm "Guilty", I know I am
But everyone around me keeps saying I'm "Innocent"
Who should I believe? Hey, if you still can hear me
Tell me, would you still laugh at me for being so foolish?"
The grave gets replaced by a door with a different date being written on it and Naomi opens it. It's a different memory now and it scares her even more. Naomi sees herself crying and it looks like someone has slapped her. She also sees her students watching her while hiding and they all look like they feel sorry for her, except the orange-haired boy from before.
"Come on, at least pretend that you feel bad for me
Or actually, maybe I don't deserve your pity
Is this your revenge? Or are you just that cruel?
Aren't you too small to have so much evil in your body?"
She takes a step back and suddenly falls back into the memory from before, but now Past!Naomi is drinking tea with everyone and the orange-haired boy stands up, points at her and starts laughing at her. Other students ignore him and some of them hug Naomi and try to cheer her up. When the boy realizes that no one is agreeing with him, he walks away and tries not to look defeated. Naomi asks the children to leave her alone for a second and she walks up to him and puts her hand on his shoulder again. The boy looks surprised and his eyes light up for a moment, but Naomi's eyes become red. She keeps smiling and she even hugs him, but it's obvious that the boy is already in her trap.
"I know I was your favorite, don't try to hide it anymore
"I just wanted more attention"? Well, here it is, try not to drown in it"
Suddenly, the setting changes again and everything starts becoming more and more red. The world around them looks like it's on fire. When the boy opens his eyes and looks around, he sees that Naomi has changed as well. She doesn't look like herself anymore. It looks like she has just turned into a devil. Naomi's hug becomes even more tight and she keeps holding the boy in her arms as he slowly turns into ashes.
"Let's admit it, both of us deserve to rot in Hell
And I refuse to be punished without you next to me"
When he's finally gone, Naomi's eye color turns back to normal and she's back to her human form. She sees that the boy is no longer with her and just keeps staring at what is left from him with an emotionless expression. She stands up and turns away from it. The video ends.

- but you can't denigrate someone trying to do better
#another question is: Can victims and their persecutors have a healthy relationship?#No. But they can learn to see the other as a human being. The wrong has been done - but their interactions can improve#(those two questions and answers are not the same btw! victims have the right to never forgive their abusers!!)#(theyre a bit linked in the story - and i cant wait to find the scan for volume 5 - but the narrative never feel like its trying to excuse#yusuke and his 'gang' 's actions)#(up until what i read at least)#(i hope akari is fully happy now.. probably impossible - but i hope shes at least at peace with life)#A L S O: you cant escape your past#even if you forget about it - even if you bury it - even if you run away from it - youll have to face it eventually#youll have to face your wrongdoings#i hope the ending better feature yusuke and akari parting ways tho#he made her suffered far too damn much#and i know she forgave him - and shes the one who has the final say#but man... man...#aaaaaaaaaa yusuke is so fucked in the head#middle school yusuke..

I have a gifset request, if anyone wants to do it at all? Though I know I'm crazy, and this is a lot, and I'm so sorry in advance. So no one has to do this at all, of course.
It's a comparison between something Angel and Anya said, because I feel like they're pretty similar? And for some reason, I've had Bangel and Xanya parallels on the mind lately.
It's Angel's: "Time was, I thought humans existed just to hurt each other. Then I came here" and Anya's “I had seen what love could do to people, and it was... hurt and sadness. Alone was better. And then, suddenly there was you, and... you knew me. You saw me, and it was this... thing. You make me feel safe and warm. So, I get it now. I finally get love.”
And the idea I have would be pairing what Angel's saying first with something sweet, like when he and Buffy went to the skating rink together, then probably all of those hurtful things he said to her as Angelus (when Buffy still thought he had his soul). And after that, them fighting in "Becoming Part 2," and then probably Angel coming back in Anne, and maybe Buffy then helping an injured Angel up in Lovers Walk (that leads Spike into his "you're not friends" spiel)? The idea being that Angel betrayed Buffy, of course, and even with that, she still forgave him and helped him, thus fitting the: "Time was, I thought humans existed just to hurt each other. Then I came here" quote.
And then for Anya's quote, with the "I had seen what love could do to people, and it was... hurt and sadness" part there would probably be an overlay of her and Olaf's relationship ending badly. "Alone was better" would be her being a vengeance demon (perhaps the "vengeance is what I am" clip). And then the rest of it would be cute Xander and Anya clips. This could be whatever anyone wants to put there, of course, but the ideas I have are: Anya: "When I think that something could happen to you, it feels bad inside, like I might vomit." Xander: I'm sorry I give you barfy feelings." Then from Primeval: Anya: "You're a good person, and a good boyfriend, and...and I'm in love with you." And finally, from The Gift: Anya: "You're proposing to me 'cause we're gonna die!..." Xander: "I'm proposing to you, Anya, because it's not."
If someone did want to do this at all--and thank you so much, by the way, if you do!--you can totally use whatever clip overlays that you want to for the quotes. These were just the examples I was thinking of to fit the Angel (Bangel) and Anya (Xanya) parallel I'm thinking of here.
#buffy the vampire slayer#bangel#xanya#angel#anya jenkins#quest#gif request#though i know. like i said. this would be pretty difficult#again: i'm so sorry and no one has to do this at all#and also with the angel quote he has a human soul of course. so that's another way the quote works. though i know he didn't when he betraye#buffy. but it's because she did make him feel human that angelus lashed out at her#i know that's not the only thing angel means by that quote of course (and tbh probably not even the main thing)#he probably means seeing how the scoobies help people he realized people are good#but this could be another thing he means by it: that seeing how buffy so easily forgave him when anyone else would not have he once again#realized people were not as bad as he had once believed

why r u so mad about ppl preferring ten x madame de pompadour to ten x martha like ten/martha will never be a thing. ten don’t want anything to do with martha. he literally said to her face she wouldn’t replace rose… and she never did… isnt canon enough for you
hm.
im glad im only a scorpio on this alone. if martha deserved better than ten then so do all of em but anyway:
this ask is giving 2006/07 i dont want to see tenth doctor in a romantic relationship with a person of color because i can't project myself or relate to them if they arent the very thing being catered to me ever since the silent pictures vibes. u know the same vibe when rtd was told to not regenerate 14 in 13's clothes. just. Ick.
but im not mad. its just interesting for a ship so big as tenrose, it is usually correlated with hating madame de pompadour and/or joan and/or river [though in joan's case they hate her not because shes racist but because shes not rose]
though comics tend to release to combat that in multi doctor stories where they jump through various alternate universes of themselves where the doctor sees themselves settled down with dr. grace holloway (for 8th dr multi doctor stories) and professor melody williams/river song (for 11th dr multi doctor stories) where in those cases, they are frightful of the concept settling down at all. [take note that both times, he settles down in the same house that he owns bc of that unit paycheck on the dl] so i am curious that with this new drs, the equivalent of this would be 13 14 15 being terrified of settling down with rose because they had grown past her as this point.
i prefer the doctor in a polyromantic ace relationship than their umpteenth 🌟tragic heteronormative romance with yt human woman number 23445788764443356743🌟 i want 14 to sweep martha off her feet in pure joy and kiss her passionately while badmouthing tf out of 10 like 9 11 12 13 do with no filter before cradling her like a baby because hes about to crumble under his brand new identity complex and then take her kid to an amusement park and then 14 trips over a brick and dies. hell i rather have nina sosanya play a whole different lady in nod to doctor who recycles their actors trope as a way to introduce a love interest to 14
that amusment park one weirdly sounds like a 8th doctor audio. pls 🙏🏾 dont make it into one i couldnt handle schezro let alone the rest of his content. Empire of the Wolf made me so fucking worried for rose marion tyler like im just she back home 🫣. as for rose tyler from the sea devil universe still out about. whoop his ass. if billie come back as HER? MISS COVER MODEL MISS DICTATOR MISS EMPRESS ROSE?
NOT
i would love for ten to be strictly friends with the new miss empress rose. get that martha karma real quick ehehehehe after all rtd did say they need freema for somethin and im sure seeing 10 get treated the same way he treated martha by no other than empress rose herself -AND THEN EMPRESS ROSE FLIRTS WITH MARTHA??? FINGERS CROSSED??? im just saying that i personally will ride on that for 8 black history months and christmases straight like woo
also real glad it is collectively decided by every one that tentoo is just john smith not corin so yay thanks big finish and titan comics

heres the update. nothing else since then, so we'll probably never know if he actually divorced her ass.
i dont think it's unreasonable to think one or both of the children are still completely no contact with their step family and it's not unreasonable to assume the older child (the male) likely cut his step mother from his life, too. I sincerely hope they did.
The Goyim are fucking wild, the way I would have dumped that casserole over that woman's head, also divorce that wife.
#the same thing has happened to me.#went ot a kids birthday party. the hostess (sister in law) assured me multiple times that it was vegan and gluten free bc her sister#and her nephew are allergic to eggs and are celiac#i said ok ig i'll try one#half way through my stomach starts hurting like you wouldnt believe. it took me 20 minutes just to eat that much bc it made me so sick#i overheard her tell another guest 'yeah it's made with buttermilk instead of eggs!'#i was sick for the next two weeks; even despite me making myself throw up half the cupcake in the bathroom immediately.#my intestines were damaged for the next year afterwards.#i cut her out of my life immediately. whenever i would see her at a family event and she would offer me food i would very sternly refuse it#and outright throw it away right in front of her#people who put shit in your food as a gotcha bc they dont agree with your allergies; choices; morals; religion are actual scum.#she constantly judged me for being vegan too. is a nurse and a boy mom to really help you get a picture of her character.#so i know for a fact it really was intentional. bc she KNOWS what vegan is and she intentionally chose her words to make it seem like ti wa#vegan when she KNEW it wasnt. she even outright told me it WAS vegan#so yeah#i really truly hope those kids and that guy cut that piece of shit woman out of their lives.#bc of that one event im terrified to eat food ive cooked most times bc im always wondering whats in it that i cant see#again. even in food I COOKED MYSELF FROM SCRATCH.#being fed something unknowingly IS traumatic. and again; i truly hope no one forgave her or her family.

Just glimpsed the cover of People magazine (I can read it free with kindle unlimited, sometimes I like to see what entertainment the old folks and straights are into, don’t @ me) and it’s Prince Harry with an inset picture of King Chuck and the headline The Real Reason They’re No Longer Speaking. It really sums up the sincere readership as the kind of folks that write advice column letters asking why their ungrateful adult children (and most of their peers’ adult children) have gone no-contact, as though it’s a trend and something their offspring do to spite them that has absolutely nothing to do with them and their parenting in any way, shape or form.
#I’d like to state for the record that i was well ahead of the curve having gone no-contact with my father in 2001#both of my folks have shuffled off this mortal coil and i miss my mother but y’know#whatever about the old boy#i know this might sound harsh to people with loving parents but if you know you know#you don’t have to be in contact with a person who dehumanized and abused you instead of caring for you#providing a roof over a child’s head is not a complete sentence nor the extent of a parent’s duty#even if it was ‘just’ emotional detachment and lack of involvement that still warrants not having to keep a relative in your life#though most people i know who have gone NC had explicitly abusive parents/siblings i just wanted to state that it includes emotional absence#anyway if calling your mother hurts because she never asks about you and talks about your siblings all the time#or it never feels like you’re good enough and your father says he’s ashamed of you for not living up to his expectations#y’know… fuck ‘em#you might have a therapist or mentor or someone who suggests playing nice or forgiving them#and they mean well but in the end forgiveness is for you and if you don’t have a connection with them you don’t have to do that#i never forgave my father to his face#just made peace with him being a complete stranger to me#and I’m doing pretty well with it actually#that is my situation and yours may vary#but if you’ve never considered that you don’t actually have to pick up the slack or take the high road and be the better person#I’m just giving you permission to think about it#one internet stranger with a shitty dad to potentially another#and remember once your shitty dad dies you no longer have to pay dues to the shitty dads club#anyway love you fellow survivors! bye! ♥️
