must a book have ‘plot’ and ‘structure’ and ‘progression.’ is it not enough for characters to be in a place. and for that place to be really fucking weird.

Ranting in DMs with friends about Eddie Diaz, as one does, and honestly the last couple episodes also so deeply reframe all of Helena's past attempts to prevent Eddie from moving to Los Angeles and then trying to get him to move back after Shannon's death. That woman does not love her son. She doesn't want him near her. She wants Christopher. It was always about Chris. It's not even the bare minimum "I want you back home near us so I can control you and give you advice and tell you what to do and you should be Home with your Family." If Eddie had left for LA on his own without Chris all those years ago she would've been happy. It was Eddie taking Chris with him that was upsetting.

That woman does not fucking love her son.

I can’t believe half the animating budget for tfp went to animating Starscream; that’s the least he deserves. Should’ve given him 3/4

consistent characterization of pb is that if youre conventionally cute she will like you and pull you out of danger but if youre kinda offputting or ugly she will let bad things happen to you in front of her and she might even openly blame you for them

Sometimes, I forget that there are people who find protagonists like Izuku, Tanjiro and Yuji "boring" because "they exhibit typical shonen protagonist traits" and one of them would be "They're nice, they're kind, they're all sunshine".

Which, okay, have your tastes, that's fine.

But when it comes to characters who are kind and/or nice, there's layers to them.

Just because a character is nice, doesn't mean they're kind and vice versa.

A character can be the most evil one in that story and still show kindness to some people somehow. A nice character may be the one to do immoral things, Yuji being an example.

The reasons for why a character is nice and/or kind varies, too.

Some are just genuinely born that way. Some may be selective as to who they show those sides, too, because of their own morality. Maybe, a character is being kind or nice to also manipulate others. Some characters may choose to be kind because who will, despite the cruelty of the world?

Also, I feel like, even with people outside of a fandom, they hear or seen a character being nice and kind, they just stop at that and don't think they're capable of being ruthless.

Like, Tanjiro canonically has a pure soul, but multiple times he has shown he is not only a menace in a fight, but he has shown to be one in casual situations. Sometimes, he's not even aware he is because he is so nice.

Izuku, he's a sweetheart, too. But even he will just shut off that "sunshine" to literally tear into you. He has been told in canon to hold back his emotions, the most prominent one being his anger. When he's angry, go apologize!

Yuji, look, let's be real... he is sunshine and rainbows, but that boy is probably the least sweetest one out of these three examples. Hold back? Yuji don't know what that is. No, no, he really don't. I kid you not, this kid doesn't. You can't even use the fight against Junpei as one because he punched Junpei UP into a window. Had Junpei not have that shikigami, he would have gotten major injuries.

My point is!

Just because a character is kind or nice or both, it doesn't mean...

A) it's the only trait they have.

B) they're not capable of not being kind or nice.

I think some see nice and kind and associate it with being "soft" in a derogatory manner.

Which, first off, there's nothing wrong with being soft.

I'll be honest, it will sound silly (go ahead and laugh actually, I encourage it), but if you put a character like one of the mentioned protagonists in front of me along with their villain and asked me "who I'm more scared of" I'm pointing at the protagonist.

Listen to me. Don't let that cuteness fool you.

With a villain, I am well aware of that villain being evil and will hurt me no matter what I do.

With someone like Yuji or Tanjiro or Izuku, they look nice, they look kind but it's like you have to be careful to not to trigger them in a way to set them off. You're caught off guard but those sweet faces and then next thing you know, BOOM! You got knocked out.

If anything, as much as people like to clown on these characters, they're only just following the footsteps of the ones before them.

Just like those legends, they started from the bottom and grew stronger over time and even with being a chill person or don't want to do evil, that doesn't exempt them from being not "a sweetheart".

I said it before, but a sunshine character to me is a character who is warm but lethal, like sunlight.

I need Mihawk to go on a true odyssey (you know like the Greek sense of the word)

Just the universe, truly atrocious luck, psychological and very physical violence all conspiring with the ocean to ensure this dude does not get where he is trynna go.

Mihawk vs heaven hell and everything in between trying to make it to his next duel with Shanks.

Of course he wins and of course he learns nothing. (​the ocean screaming shanking banging its head because it’s tried its best but these stupid as fuck swordsmen)

Y’all it’s been very clear Joe holds his moments and overall relationship tidbits about Ja’Marr as close as possible. Like he is always calculated with what he says , but you can see the gears turn when it’s a Ja’Marr related question and I find it so endearing. Ex. Week 2 after the shove around the world and how FLUSTERED he was trying to answer questions about it afterwards 😭😭

🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ oh absolutely that man is sooooo careful about the way he speaks on his relationship with ja'marr, especially that kc game presser. i think i've talked abt this before in an ask or babbled abt it in some post tags?? but i do think he has been wayyy looser on the tongue these days really. like his past few pressers ever since hmm even before the switch up with tee really?? like there has legitimately been a rise of ja'marr levels of Insane Quotes from him about ja'marr and also about him and ja'marr now. like on him playing in a world without ja'marr (wow they really asked that. like they worded that question that way.) 'haven't had that, don't wanna have that', his opinions on ja'marr's playing 'always fun to watch', his triple crown goals 'i'll make sure he gets it', lsu questions, 'careers forever be tied together', getting ja'marr the fucking ball, etc etc. idk he's way laxer answering them now?? they're asking ja'marr his opinions and reaction to joe quotes on him now really wow. and we get such gems of ja'marr brightening up and giggling over it ougugughugh cute as hell.

but really on the touchiness thing -> taking account on how joe is with literally everybody else. again, he loves being touchy with people. smooching evan. head bonks and leaping body slams with ted, cappa, orlando, mims my favorite child, geno, mike g or h, chase b, yoshi, literally everyone on offense really, teeeeee his most beloved truly has there ever been a man more targeted with his tender affection than tee higgins. nuzzling his neck. insane. and bro-hugs and dapping opponents up pre-game and post-game is always something he does too right. like joe has always been free with physical affection you can't deny this.

so being physically close to someone isn't something he'd hide, really. why would he hide what he has with ja'marr? pinky shakes helmet slams, chest slaps, etc etc. countless moments caught on cameras that we've agonized over. but we've never seen joe be mindlessly affectionate with ja'marr the way he is with evan and tee and several other teammates (not as much as tee and evan though really lol)! which leads toooo this and this.

While I love the storyline where Alfred was there from day one and helped raise Bruce, I think the original where he’s just some guy who shows up one day and Bruce and Dick just have to cope is extremely funny
