#and morgana is also just a girl and dramatic

[diveyne]

for as long as her feet have tread upon earthen ground and its aching chasms that cry with the despair of crumbling dust and decay with every brutal war descending upon its soil to tear it apart by its seams, morgana has only known sorrow and the solitude of light and the false pretenses of blessings painted holy, coated in the oils of the gods and set aflame to burn eternally without end nor respite to snuff its beacon of silvered lies. sylas is naught but a mortal man, the very image of humanity raised high upon a pedestal as the man demacia wishes to throw down as its broken, shackled martyr, and still her brow turns to swelling anger surfacing from the suffocating binds coiling tight in her chest. his life lasts a mere breath compared to the millennia she has come to see pass — he couldn't possibly know the plight she fought against, the sacrifices she has made in the name of every sin she wrought upon humanity.

morgana knows well the suffering of mages and how they have suffered for centuries. demacians preached of the horrors of wars long past, martyring mage after mage in senseless violence as scapegoats simply because they dared to exist. the great nation and its people fostered the falsehoods of righteous prophets declaring the danger of mages and how they befouled their city, nurturing every intricate lie spun by the kingdom and its aristocrats and bureaucrats so that they could continue to live their lives of comfortable avarice and gluttony while those less fortunate struggled for scraps or laid waste behind petricite cells with chains heavier than their souls bound to their wrists.

her fists have curled now in the silently bubbling ire boiling deep in her veins, but she draws in a breath to calm herself. he is angry, rightfully so, and morgana understands, but sylas cannot hear her beyond the thick fog of vengeance clouding his eyes. he sees an answer to his prayers and feels scorned by its denial, but cannot see just why. " watch your words, sylas, " morgana warns, vivid, violet eyes aglow as she regards him. " this is a war i have fought for a thousand years. had i the means to act as brazenly as i did all those years ago, don't you think i would have been able to put an end to this all? i have been chased into the shadows like a rat beneath the sewers, and i have been alone in my solitude for all this time, doing what i can as i can. i hear your prayers, sylas. i hear every prayer whispered and cried out by the feeble masses with so much anguish and desperation. "

she looks upon him with hardened eyes, eyebrows furrowing while her lips have relaxed into their natural form, corners of her mouth downturned in a way that, with the rest of her expression, makes her look as though she frowns upon sylas with displeasure. perhaps she is. " have a little more respect before you think to insult me as if i have not spent centuries fighting at the forefront of this war. demacians have evolved, as have their research and weapons of war — i cannot fight them alone. which is why i ask: what of your vengeance? what, then, when vengeance and anger is all that remains? those cannot be the only sources of power you rely on. relying on that alone is a guaranteed path towards destruction. you may not care if you perish in the name of the cause, but what of the people who need you? will you cave to corruption because your convictions are otherwise too weak? i have seen good men crumble beneath the weight of power such as mine because their bodies and minds could not handle the pressure, sylas. don't be one of them. "

*DROPS S/I ON THE GROUND*

*RUNS AWAY IN SHAME*

S/I Yap time!!

OK SO-- I made this little S/I art yesterday and felt like sharing!! My Persona 5 S/I is basically-- well, me (bubbly and annoying) and nothing else lolol I literally insert myself in the universe with some plot changes and it's fun!! She likes space and music! Cuz i do too! :D She's also an indie musical artist but it's like more of a hobbie than anything! (Even if it does helps with money and all! she also does haves some good amount of followers on the niche! But nothing big out of the indie bubble) She wants to work as a songwriter for a famous singer one day!

Her background is nothing crazy but I made some silly changes, like aging up my irl brother (he's currently a lil baby and I made him a lil kid :3) and making me live with my grandma! (fucking love my grandma kisses grandma!!) Also some dramatic aah stuff like dead mom and no dad for me (the basics) 😭😭 My S/I has a strong special interest in space!!! Which is something I'm getting really into lately! So I made mommy an astronomer! She was like best friends with Wakaba (scientific nerds lol) and Sojiro so S/I was very close to Futaba since childhood for that reason!

She is a phantom thieve (shockerz) and uhm I wanted to use my personal experience as a bullied child growing up (mostly because of ableism) and turn that into motivation to make justice, since no one did that for me before!! (Grr goddamn adults!) And finding my own group of weird little people made me much more open and generally happy in real life! So that's what I'm doing on this universe as well! ^^

Yes she entered in kamoshida's case cuz I wanna imagine myself in every little story event.

Yes I study at Shujin.

Yes I am basic. /j

Even tho when it's for self shipping purposes I usually make my stuff in the 3rd semester because... life is beautiful and husby has no filter so it's funnier ✨️ AND YES I AM HELPING THE ROYAL TRIO WITH MARUKI FUCK IT NOW WE ARE FOUR!! (Depression afterwards :<)

Her Persona is called Selene! Based off the greek goddess of the moon!! She has nuclear/almighty based skills simply because it's chaotic and looks cool!! FUCKING MEGIDOLAON ON THEM!!! POOOWWW BOOM KABOOM!! 💥👊ALSO FUN FACT SHE'S VERY CHAOTIC!! (just like me fr maybe because it is me duh) often being too dramatic, explosive and loud!!! totally ruining stealth when it comes to infiltrating palaces, which usually makes some funny aah scenes because she was dumb-- maybe she's not a good phantom thief...

maybe.

Talking about metaverse stuff! Her clothes are based off Magicians! Because of her lil show off nature, making everything a explosive dramatic spectacle! And uhm magicians are cool!! -v-"

This concept was made with the help of my bestie! Helping me take a more Kaito kid/Tuxedo Mask inspired design, which i really like allot! big thanks to him!! <3

Relationship dynamics:

On this section I wanted to give a small little insights on her relationships with most characters! Since I felt like it would be fun to do so! :3

☆~☆~☆

Akira Kurusu/Ren Amamiya

- Her relationship with Akira is pretty much like a siblings relationship, Luna looks up to him allot and is the "I wanna be like you when I grow up" type lol even if they are the same age. He is her inspiration to get better, so she will get at his level one day! He also makes extra suggary cappuccino to her when she goes to Leblanc 🤝 ☕️

Ryuji Sakamoto

- Her relationship with him is pretty much the chaotic duo type, shes always giving him death stares when he starts to talk about girls or some dumb Ryuji shit like that 😭 Her and Morgana are constantly slandering him for the funzys, but Ryuji also likes to pick up on her so they're eternally on a war-- and in general they are two loud dumbasses who share the same braincells and have little silly banters 🤲 also HC that Luna helps him dye his hair 🫡

Ann Takamaki

- Her relationship with Ann is the girly besties type, constantly going out shopping, Ann usually helps her to buy her clothes since Luna definitely can't pick her clothes on her own without it looking weird 😭 they also go out allot to eat! Try the newest deserts all around Tokyo! Those two would probably kill for a chocolate cake. And they are getting progressively more poor because of that... She likes to paint Ann's nails and style her hair for fun! because she personally thinks Ann looks like a pretty porcelain doll!

Yusuke Kitagawa

- Her relationship with Yusuke is another of pure admiration!! Yusuke admire Luna for her artistic side on the music and Luna's eyes sparkle at every little sketch he does, I like to think that Luna (just like me) is an artist for fun who really has allot of trouble with drawing certain things that aren't fanart lol, and they go out on little panting sessions togheter. Like I dunno go to Inokashira Park to draw the scenario and his comes out like the next monalisa and hers is like... Blue and Green all mixed up togheter. And she probably got her clothes dirty in the process. He does encourages her to continue tho! And gives her tips that she usually doesn't get-- so uhm sensei Yusuke Ig?

Makoto Nijima

- Her relationship with Makoto is... *sighs* very sibling-like too. Luna isn't the best at school, and always cry for help when it's exams week 💔 Makoto usually scolds her for being too careless at everything, school, metaverse, crossing the road-- but only because she really cares about her. Luna is like the little sister she needs to lookout for so she doesn't get herself killed by accident. Oh fun fact but Luna is also very afraid of Sae (just like me im afraid of pretty woman) so yeah she freezes when she steps in the room 😭

Futaba Sakura

- Oh boooyyy Futaba time!! My relationship with Futaba is so silly and fun and I wanna yap about it!! Ok third person mode on--

So, since they were basically raised togheter, they are pretty close to one another, and have gathered the same types of interests through the years. Since I have the Autistic Futaba HC, I like to imagine that they get each other more than anything, engaging in parallel play most of the time when she was a shut-in. And I like to imagine that Luna was pretty much the only person she talked to at first after her Palace. Also HC that they play Pokemon United togheter. Cuz I said so. They exchange allot of gifts related to their special interests too! Ugh I have so many HC's for us but basically we are best friends forever two little chaotic autistic sillys but i help Futaba with her social anxiety! yipeee :3

Haru Okumura

- Her relationship with Haru is the tea time besties, they talk all day over a good cup of tea and Haru frequently gives her tips of how not make her plants die (very important, I never can make them live...) which is a hobby Luna really is trying to... make possible... (plz don't die this time) and generally her time yapping with Haru is a very comforting one, usually when shes feeling dramatic she goes and hugs Haru and makes her little drama, and Haru is usually the only one who's like "Oh dear :(" and stands her when she's being extra or cheers her up when shes actually sad too! 😭 shes such a sweetheart! <3 don't be mean with Mona and Luna! Haru is gonna politely ask you to stop. (Looking at you ryuji)

Morgana

- Her relationship with our favorite not cat! He's... Morgana. We know him. But Luna can be considered pretty much his #1 fan???? She thinks he's HELLA COOL like the best phantom thieve ever!! (I love morgana!!!) She really respects him and Morgana is really grateful to have someone that looks up to him (Luna looks up to lots of people! ><") Luna also likes to pat him. Allot. (IM A CAT PERSON OK) which well he doesn't mind but still he's not a kitty that you can just pat like that!!! (He's purring)

Sumire Yoshizawa

- Her relationship with Sumire is... damn, Luna is LOUD. And well we know that Sumi isn't exactly as extroverted as she makes herself seem when she takes on the Kasumi role. So uhm let's say Luna is overwhelming-- very overwhelming! 😭 She's always jumpy and bubbly and is constantly trying to cheer Sumire up, turning into some type of cheerleader for her when she starts to self-depreciate in any way, being overly affectionate and in general being extra EXTRA around her since she gets very worried about Sumire's mental health-- So yeah, Luna is basically constantly cheering her on and admiring her for being able to make things she can't (Even if Sumire doesn't think they're that great :< )... ooh we have another extreme admiration case here!!! Maybe the person she admires the most! Hell yeah! Give my girly some love!~ My bestie <3

Haha that's the end nothing more to see here... hah... haha.... bye...

Ok...

*sighs*

Goro Akechi

- That's probably the most important relationship of all-- why did I put him in last? I'm embarrassed. Uh... shy? 😭 gonna be more personal about this one uhm-- well

That's my boyfriend over there, I hate him I don't really enjoy his company and I hope he gets therapy. /hj

No, really tho, our relationship is... I can't even describe it, but our dynamic is DEFINITELY the "aww they do care about each other" type-- I constantly enjoy to annoy the hell out of him, just because it's funny?? I'm the devil from the bible. Er... so... the thing is, Akechi constantly get dismissed through story for obvious reasons, he's openly agaisn't the Phantom Thieves and later they do have much MUCH more motives to not fuck with him-- but Luna? DAMN. That girl is I N V E S T E D In being friends with him. Specially on the start, his sob stories actually made her pity him and get all "aw he's miserable... 🥺" lol so she constantly insisted on being his friend, even tho he was internally screaming and trying to push her away, she was CONVICTED. SHES A FRIENDSHIP MACHINE BABY. YOU CAN'T ESCAPE HER!!

So with that forced proximity, they eventually started getting closer, and it was something very... slow? Definitely. Luna never cared about hiding herself no matter how weird people seemed to find her, maybe he would admire that... envy that? Who knows.

Suddenly he started to enjoy her company. Even if she was... oh well a little dumb, yeah, he definitely thinks she is-- He never had people who were close to him, and definitely didn't had someone THAT determined to bother him 24/7. Maaaybe he could call her something close to a friend... right? (Yes they were she stated that every 3 seconds and Luna rules 🫡) And that was before he "entered" to the Phantom Thieves, and when he did? Damn she was kinda happy! Don't talk about the blackmail part showing off to him and telling him all the cool things she could do as she ""teached"" him about the metaverse (lol like this bitch needed to) and they got even closer!! Damn! Let's go play darts togheter and silly around! Yay! :D

I also like to HC that he would eventually let some good amount of things about his real self slip, and Luna would be like totally clueless and okay about it, when most people would think it was weird or out of character. Maybe that's why he got so weirdly comfortable around her? She didn't gave a fuck-- and oh well he wasn't THAT detective princefied around her by that time. Yeah she's probably the closest he got to it... (sweeps Akira under the rug)

And uh... let's skip allot of things so I won't yap about the whole Akechi arc here. Maybe another day.

But Luna was utterly miserable after everything (yall know what), she wasn't angry... just... shocked. Maybe a bit quieter? Less energetic? She was since the revelation, but it was worse now... and the penny dropped at the worst time-- And uh yeah sad above everything I think that's pretty much expected when you lose someone you really like. Despite everything, he was a friend... someone she cared about... maybe more than she should...

Wait.

Cared about, huh? OH FUCK SHE WAS IN LOVE WITH HIM!!! (Shockerz) GASP WOW WOAH! *VINE BOOM* Who would've guessed. So uhm yeah that sucks, now it's too late...

A little more timeskip--

Oh well damn hi Goro!! What the fuck??? :D

That's where most of the romantic relationship aspects take part, damn he was there now???? It was literally her chance!! To what? Nothing really-- just spend more time to him and get more clingy (like she wasn't enough before) and even MORE bubbly than before!! She was genuinely happy! And now with the useless knowledge that she was utterly and absolutely in love with him. Oh well. And... damn she fell even more for him now! LIKE 20× MORE!! STOP HER PLEASE!!

And uh well she's not very good at hiding it so yeah her secret didn't last long, maybe i'll write how the confession went someday! :)

So basically... at first he was like "What the fuck?? Why????" But uhm maybe er... maybe he uhm... you know-- maaaybeeeee--- okay im flustered BUT MAYBE he would realize in the moment that he was in... love too? Uhm... get a little... yk... awkward there... ,÷*×&×(× er-- I don't know!! I MEAN FUCK OF COURSE HE DID I LITERALLY SELF SHIPP WITH HIM UGH IM DUMB--

OKAY WE ARE DATING NOW. That's the point. 😭😭

It's awkward, not ideal for what people expect of a couple, we definitely still have our little silly banters, he does want to kill me! and i do like to annoy him!! BUT I LIKE IT THAT WAY!! We aren't a veeeery affectionate openly lovey dovey couple but we are deeply in love! And when we do have our little lovey dovey moments it's just us being two dumb messes who don't know a thing about what we are doing! Hand holding? Just the little fingers! Kisses? Barely cheek ones! (On my part obviously im kissing the hell outta his cheeks mwah mwah mwah) I mean, we are trying! I love him and he loves me!! Allot!!! Even if we get a little weird and flustered about it!

>//<

I like awkward dating. It's fun. I love my boyfriend. :>

Oh damn I realized I yapped allot, more than I should-- I was about to write my relationship with other minor characters in the game but uhm that's too much already! Sorry for making you read that much! ^^"

But thank you for reading anyways!! I really appreciate it <3 for reading to my ULTIMATE s/I yapping!! Or... well, a yapping about me! I hope you enjoyed it! Feel free to ask questions about my s/i or my self ship if you have any! Oh damn even yap back at me about your S/I's! F/O's? I would love to hear it! ^^

Bye everyone!!!~ ☆

[girlwitharabbitheart]

obsessed with the idea of a Merlin reincarnation!fic where they’re all back as long suffering millennials.

Merlin’s sense of humor is now as dry as the Sahara desert. Arthur is a grumpy golden retriever (they exist okay, I have one lol) and Morgana and Gwen have been BFFs and platonic soulmates for years. Like they are besties forever okay

So Merlin gets this hysterical idea to buy Arthur a bear for his birthday. One that has a teeny little crown and sings “I just can’t wait to be king” from the lion king when you squeeze it. Because they do have some memories, and like. Those are traumatic as fuck most of the time what with the war and the death and the betrayal and shit and like. They’ve collected decided to say fuck it to destiny and do their own thing this time. But anyway. Merlin buys this bear because it’s FUNNY AS FUCK and Gwen is like 90% of his impulse control but she and Morgana ALSO think it’s funny. So he’s like 🤷🏻‍♀️ and buys it 😂

And then they take him out to dinner, like usual, cause of course he had to be born on the shortest day of the year and it’s dark at 4pm and like. There’s not much else to do. But the three of them are totally not subtle and Merlin can barely contain himself so Arthur is immediately suspicious. (look he remembers the year that Merlin and Morgana were both really into paganism, even without magic this time around, and that birthday had been a blur of embarrassment) so he’s super cautious when he takes the gift bag. And pulls out the bear. And then. He’s just really confused.

But it starts singing, of course, and Merlin loses his tenuous hold on his composure.

And they’re all just completely overcome with laughter while Arthur pouts. “MERlin,” he hisses dramatically as he kicks Morgana half heartedly under the table, “what. The fuck.”

“Well fine I can return it if you don’t want it.” Merlin grins, reaching for the bear and narrowly avoiding a disaster with the table centerpiece.

Arthur immediately snatches it back with a haughty frown. “…I didn’t say I don’t want it.”

And then Merlin is wheezing too, leaning on Gwen for support, and Morgana looks like she might faint from oxygen deprivation at any moment.

Arthur roles his eyes, tucks the bear into his side and drops his head into his hands. “I literally cannot take you three anywhere.”

When Merlin finally makes it to bed that night, after they’d taken the girls home and Arthur had stumbled upstairs with his spoils and Merlin had wandered into the kitchen for a cup of tea, the bear is perched between their pillows. Arthur is already asleep, curled on his side with the blanket drawn up to his shoulders. Something unbearably fond takes root in Merlin’s chest then, blooming out from his heart. And he he’s careful not to disturb the bear as he climbs under the covers and fits himself to Arthur’s side.

[sammywolfgirl]

Big ol doodle dump with some boys and my girl Hannei Kugutsu! Think I got a solid enough thing to start posting her

So uh I’ll go into detail another day but basically her concept is “hey what if yaldi had his own morgana to keep an eye on the wildcards” and that’s hannei, she has no idea because as far as she knows she’s a human who lost her memory do to being partly distorted in mementos, she ran into akechi and has clung to him since (this is when he first got persona powers)

As anyone who translates her name might guess, she is a blank slate, her purpose is to ‘reflect’ the wildcards and their confidants. In turn she picks up traits and slowly figures herself out as a person. Also do to this reflection she gets a persona each from akechi and akira thoigh id call it more of a sophie situation at first, she properly awakens to them after having an arc with each of them.

Also since she finds akechi first you can imagine how well reflecting this walking disaster of a kid goes so uh yeah.

Akechi is the focus here though, because this also doubles as my desperate attempt to get goro akechi to choose to live. And the start is seeing a bit too much of himself in this weirdo he found in mementos and sees her starting to spiral like he did and she is way too into the idea of being his accomplice in black mask bs and basically goes ‘fuck you the only one aloud to self destruct here is me!” And thus the arc begins!

Also she insisted on calling akechi her cousin as soon as she learned about family and akechi just has to deal with that it’s great sure do hope he doesn’t get attached and have a found family arc with this weirdo that will take like three years to culminate into a dramatic scene haha anyways

If anyone wants to know more ask box is open, oh also her personas are Zenigata and Fenrir, probably won’t be hard to guess which protags persona they’re supposed to reflect

[dreamcrow]

have you done a “how I would fix that movie” meta post? I’m also interested in your stricklake manifesto or something about guillermo del toro’s horror sensibilities and toa

send me a meta prompt (currently closed); thank you for the ask!

how did you know exactly what prompted this lol

stricklake manifesto is...tentatively forthcoming. possibly. probably. stay tuned. while i know i've certainly thought about how i'd fix the movie (and not even purely for niche side blorbo reasons), but i'm not sure how compelling (or coherent) that end product actually is. 🤔

unfortunately my fixit of the movie starts roughly thirty seconds after bellroc vaporizes that poor pigeon in chicago (or wherever metrocity is) and diverges wildly from there. tldr: someone on team trollhunter remembers they're in a gdt show, and asks just why are they all blindly following merlin, anyway. is it barb? god, i want it to be barb. obviously blinky is like "because he's the esteemèd merlin ambrosius, duh" while all three changelings just look directly into the camera. merlin blusters. barb backs off. 

then, once merlin wanders out of earshot, she asks again.

i do think that would be probably the biggest single change. i'm very self-conscious when i sit down in my lil sandbox that i don't want to give barb another job; she has enough already, and she gets mommed by the fandom in a way i don't always think is malicious but which nevertheless generally rubs me wrong. but truly: who else is doing it like her? okay, sure, there's jim: until the last four episodes of trollhunters, his actual, textual superpower is his humanity. he then gets browbeaten into discarding it—the quality that has, until now, been his unique and cited qualification—because the guy who made an amulet out of his student's severed hand acted like he had some kind of moral high ground.  

barb, meanwhile, is also an extraordinarily human human. she's the normie! she's the clueless mundane, a single mother dragged into the supernatural by her only son.  and while she does freak out—rightly! understandably!—when the supernatural puts her and her loved ones in danger, she never speaks against it just for being different. obviously stricklander is the example i've thought about most here: she's mad when he comes back (again, rightly), but her objections are because you lied to and endangered and my son, not because you're a dirty changeling. she's mad (and hurt) when jim lies about fighting off goblins, but because she's scared for him! once the masquerade is broken, she's immediately on his side. she's also the only character to even try to make merlin answer for trollifying jim, even if it's presented humorously. best girl.

so. back to this theoretical fixit: i think barb would be the most natural choice to start the questioning, here. blinky would still push back a little, but with merlin elsewhere, nomura and stricklander don't have to worry about being nice; maybe aaarrrgghh would even chime in on their side (what exactly do the gumm-gumms think of emrys, anyway?). it's not an easy conversation. it's also not the last one. but it starts. for a series that is otherwise unusually arthurian, arthur in trollhunters is conspicuous by his absence. but you have merlin. you have morgana. you also—pace wizards' giant slimy monster, who was cute, but completely overlooked preexisting developments—have the lady of the goddamn lake: legendary enchantress, giver of excalibur, single mother of the best of knights. 

and, most importantly, the one who seals merlin in a fucking tree.

u see where i'm going with this.

once barb starts that question—well. i make no claims that this is recognizable, but you did ask how i would do it, lol. from this i can't help but feel it would cascade pretty dramatically. if stricklander and nomura united behind her, i think jim would follow. claire and toby after him. once the humans (and adjacent) are convinced, i don't think blinky could hold out any longer; maybe the smarter version of him other people keep seeing could be brought around to some kind of "trust, but verify." soft and stupid as i am about wretched wizard blorbos, obviously the order are still being assholes. we don't want them to actually burn it all down. but is that what they're actually trying to do? or is this just another received merlinian dictum? 

god—and if they got to talk to nari about it! once again, one of the biggest failures of wizards (and rott) was how utterly it sidelined its characters in favor of punchy punchy bang bang. this i know have written about somewhere: jim's reduction to a vicarious highschool bully fantasy, how bellroc was flattened into cartoonish, beautifully rendered cardboard-cutout evil, while somehow still staying the most consistent character in the room. stricklander—whose entire character arc in trollhunters was built on 1.) the infinite possibility of an individual for change and 2.) being the smartest bastard in the room—took the first step into his new life by marrying barb and then immediately paid for it with the stupidest death possible. (see a longer and much keener essay about this here, from @millennialmoviereviews.) i cannot overemphasize how frustrated i am—still, yes, i know, about a children's cartoon—about how that movie treated its characters, even ones (the tarrons! douxie! steve!) i don't normally have any investment in.

...but what if that changed? what if we took what used to be the gdt hallmark—sympathy for monsters, without excuse—and committed to the goddamn bit? jim reached out to bular back in trollhunters. yes, what you're doing is wrong; you're hurting people i mean to protect; but i understand you're hurting too, and why, and how we might not be so different. you don't have to do this.

then barb sends merlin to treeby deeby, and bellroc and skrael fucking kiss.

(and then go about actually protecting/repairing the balance of the world or whatever, but i know what i'm about.)

postscript. i admit i pick a lot on merlin. don't get it twisted: i think my own evil wizard blorbos were also complete dumbasses here. but i think part of the reason i am so invested in merlin experiencing a goddamn consequence is pretty closely related to the original reason i was so drawn to gdt's stuff in the first place, namely: decoupling "good" and "evil" from "normal" and "monster," respectively. i don't think this is too much to expect of a kids show, especially one for toa's age group. trollhunters does a great job of doing this—of allowing nuance, of showing how it's possible to think outside the frameworks you know, while still remaining accessible to children—and 3below kind of? tries to keep it up. i think. but wizards...doesn't. even for all it does (inadvertently or otherwise) end up pointing out how merlin and arthur, founts of the same authority, massively screwed up. i've also had many people point out that wizards was pretty much set up to fail: executive meddling, rushed production, etc. etc. which i do sympathize with. 

but it's still. tremendously bitter. to see six seasons' worth of such a unique message get discarded so easily. especially when this was done with such breathtakingly little love for the material.

[crescentmoon-flower]

Gantlos is my reaction to

Did the circle burn him or just hurt?

Well that's awsome

Oh my god that man is dedicated to not noticing shit

That smile is creepy

Isn't this man a lumberjack? How is he going to survive now?

Why does bloom get to keep the circle?

And their back

Pets aren't typically allowed at bars

Pointless pet fluff

Nabu forshadowing

Aww tecna is emoting so much, I'm proud!

Damn this all, more mitzie

...well she had a good singing voice

He has work, stella

He's going to break that guitar

More nabu foreshadowing

Creepy surfer man

For a really important episode it feels like 70 percent is pointless

Persona 5-The Daybreakers

This has never been dubbed into English, it is subbed through. Just letting people know.

I love Morgana 🤣🤣

They have to go down to the train station to access Mementos? I thought they entered from above. So they just disappear into thin air?

So this takes place sometime after Yusuke.

Why does Ren look pissed and disinterested?

I love the shot of them getting in.

Ren drives like I do. 🤣🤣

I can drive the cat. No, I can't.

They make Akechi even prettier 🥰🥰Also his eyes look more red here.

This dude looks like Wonder.

I know that beer brand 🤣🤣

Pink chalk?

Yusuke's friend looks like a wet puppy.

Does the game ever ask "Why don't they go to the police"? Like I know it's established pretty early on that the police aren't going to do anything (the game's words, not mine) and that's basically why the Phantom Thieves exist.

Ren is pretty 😍😍 And basically stalking that dude. Way to take tips from your boyfriend🤣🤣

I've never seen Ren wear a cross-body bag. Minus that uh, fashion disaster (IMHO) of a collab with a tourism thingy.

Damn, he really pissed... and hot.

Ren looked normal for a frame. Is this an AU? Like Ren's harder than usual.

Why does he react like he forgot Morgana was there? 🤣🤣

My man is risking his ass using Leblanc. Like I remember reading about this on the Wikia but really. I like how they weren't concerned about using Leblanc. Like really, especially cause Ren could get kicked out, property could be damaged, Morgana could get hurt, Sojiro could get hurt if he walks in. Not to mention it's just plain rude to be that careless. Ren has balls.

Where'd the panic light come from? They don't have Futaba yet. Iwai!?

If it wasn't Makigami? then who was it?

It was his brother, Yusuke's wet puppy friend. 😲😲

He's the leader? I thought he was the lackey😲😲 I thought the older dude was the leader.

That transformation was uh...

Where'd the bloody Oni come from? I thought we were fighting Mitras.

Add in the onion bird.

Ren is badass 😍😍🥵🥵

If Arsene's gonna get more lines. I would love it if it got dubbed. That's part of the reason I kept him. 😋😋😋😋

I like how they do baton pass all athletic and dramatic.

Long legs 😍😍

What I wouldn't give to be his position. 😍😍

"The arrogance in your heart. I stole it". (I accidentally flipped it although I think it works better the other way). It reminds me of a line from dancing. "Did you enjoy the show? Well, until next time". 🥵😍

Although, it sounds like intil to me. Same thing happened with Ippon Datara. I thought it was Ippon Tatara. In my defense, I had to learn what his voice sounded like.

Wait, this dude is a Mementos Mission. He's a combo of 2MM. 6/18 you get The Phantom Thieves vs. Burglary Ring. The story matches up halfway and the dude's name is Makigami but it never mentions him having a brother. It's even the same shadow. Fake-Man Show in 3rd sem has a brother that he abused and he says the same thing as his shadow disappears.

Morgana's dopey face. Maybe because I have it paused? 🤣🤣

Pretty girl in the crowd.

Just hear a random cat and find a key and a note 🤣🤣. That's how we got some of our cats. Minus the key and note.

He's kinda cute. Why does he look like a mix of Akechi and Natsume? But add in wet puppy.

😍😍😍🥵 Fuckin' gorgeous shot. Reminds me of when Morgana's floating away at the end/near the end of 5.

They went straight into Kaneshiro, without Makoto? I wish the game did that. 🤣🤣 Maybe it was near Kanoshiro to begin with.

So, that was a test run? I don't know how to word it. It makes sense, given that Ren's not that confident when he starts. It does provide insight on what thiefy lengths Ren is capable of.

A-1 (Steak Sauce🤭) animated this? It looks amazing. What happened between episode 0 and 1? Come to think of it they did the opening for Radiant Historia too. Which also looks great and it's on the 3DS. I think they also did a couple of P3 movies too. So, why does the anime look like it does?

[arcplaysgames]

didn’t you keep saying you didn’t even like p4g when playing? how is p5r worse? genuine question. is it the pacing/characters/story?

cw: P5R negativity, fans might wanna skip this

I think you missed my final round-ups on P4G because outside very specific criticisms (Izanami being bad writing, the P4MC being an anchor around the throat of the game, and JESUS FUCK THE MUSIC WAS SO BAD) I was overall pretty positive on P4G. It has ups and downs, but the ups far outweigh the downs. I think if you check this blog with /tagged/p4 you'll find my two big Final Thoughts posts. I honestly think P4G gets a bad wrap. I'd give it a final score of, like, 7 out of 10.

It's just not Persona 3 Portable Girl Route, which I still maintain is the best scenario writing and some of the best character writing of the series, and I think the structure is much more solid. Also the music is the best I've heard yet.

P5R, I am currently doing the Kaneshiro Arc and I have recruited Makoto. My issue with P5R is probably three-fold.

One: I think that the cast is dramatically weaker than P4 and P3. Like, I'm kind of shocked at how weak the cast is. So far I like Morgana the most, but I think it was my friend Bane who pointed out that Morgana tends to be a very divisive character because he's such a strong character compared to everyone else. Me, I need this. I desperately need this because I think Ryuji and Ann feel incredibly weak, and while I am thrilled to have Yusuke, he's.... like mid-tier. For P5 he's godtier but he's mid-tier for P4 or P3.

I was talking to a friend and basically said that this game fails the Homestuck Rule of Writing, honestly. Like, when you are writing really distinct characters, one of the best shortcuts is to just.... make them passionate in uncool ways. Give them weird hobbies your audience probably will not share, but let the level of passion they have make them feel stronger.

Like, Chie is obsessed with kung fu, Akihiko and Shinjiro have a running fight about protein vs vegetables that's really funny, and Kanji just keeps a sewing kit on him and will fix people's hems on the street. Remember when Junpei met a gothic lolita girl by the train station who was making art in her own blood and was like "haha awesome you seem cool! Wanna hang out?"

God, I miss Junpei every day.

So far, honestly? No one in P5R passes the Homestuck Test. I keep complaining I need some weirdos and that's what I mean. I am kind of just "ugh" on this idea of "oh so and so gets better" but like. No one in P3 and P4 needed to "get better" (okay except Yukari but her arc fucking rocked).

Two: The technical quality of the writing of this game is so much worse than P3 and P4 imo. It's something i have a hard time explaining and I'm to a point I have just given up on even cataloging it because it feels like I'm complaining about something small, but it's a small thing that keeps happening over and over and over and over, until it's just this overall severe lack of polish to the entire game. Which, when I am dealing with a game that feels as overproduced and maximalist as P5R, having the actual script be this rough in a way that was easily fixable with another pass is just a rock in my shoe.

Three: I am severely fucking torn on the entire concept of Joker. In a way, Joker feels like a direct answer to my biggest criticism of P4G, that the MC was such a non-character, a complete void with nothing to balance the story on, a problem so severe that by midway through, P4G was about Yosuke instead of P4MC. And that sucks. Having a MC with no impetus, only reaction, just didn't suit the structure of P4G.

Now, we have Joker, who frankly is a great character who addresses those complaints perfectly. He has an easily detectable personality, he has more frequent and more interesting dialogue choices, he has quirks and oddities, and he has a compelling backstory that lends itself to the core themes and mysteries of the game.

Except: the Gay Options have been removed.

I was able to play P4G as a homogay from start to finish, which frankly softened some of my anger about the entire experience. Not to be flippant, but Reverie The Fourth's only traits were "calm dude" and "fuckin GAY".

After how queer P4G was, the complete absence of that in P5R is.... isolating and disappointing. It's something I am pushing through but the game's repeated calls for rebellion and pushing against what people think of you feels trite with how relentlessly cishet it all is.

At the end of the day, at the moment, I consider P5R easily the weakest of the Big Three. Maybe my opinion will change! But at the moment it's really not getting better.

I was talking to a friend and I think that the Perfect Persona Game would be

fully gender neutral protagonist, just don't refer to their gender at all, don't gate anything around gender, just don't

the setting of P5R

the cast of P4 or P3

Frankly if you gave me the same game, Persona 5 Royal, but inserted SEES or the Investigation Team, you would have the fucking greatest modern Persona game.

[asktransakirakurusu]

Fun headcanon: There are actually three separate group chats among the friend group. One for Phantom Thieves planning (the one we see IG), one for normal teenage memes and shitposts (Futaba is canon meme/shitpost queen) and one solely for whenever Morgana does cute funky not-cat things.

(oh, I could absolutely see it. I could also see them making further smaller group chats with different groups, like ones with just the girls and just the guys, I once saw a chatfic where Futaba modded a group chat called something like "Futaba computer helpdesk" that was just for asking computer questions, and I could also see Akira's dramatic ass making a group chat with Ryuji and Mishima, calling it Operation Maidwatch, typing "Assholes 🖕" and then just leaving because no, he will NOT ever be over them leaving him high and dry during that)

Mini Fanfic #1039: Mistletoe Contest (Super Smash Bros Ultimate)

Coming to you live from Smash Town's Mansion of Smash, comes the first and possibly only annuel.....MISTLETOE CONTEST !!!!!!

Yoshi: (Wearing a Black Tuxedo While Sitting Next to Dark Pit Behind an Anchor's Desk) Greetings, one and all, to our very special evening in the first day of December tonight! I am your host with the most, Yoshi. And here with me my partner in crime, DP.

Dark Pit: (Slouches his Head Down on the Top of his Hand With an Annoyed, Deadpinned Expression) I hate everything about this already....(Turns to Yoshi) What the hell made you think this was remotely a good idea?

Yoshi: Look, the idea just came straight to me alright? Plus, everyone been going under the Mistletoe a lot more often in the last two years, so I figured.....(Shrugs With a Bit of an Awkward Smile on his Face) Why not make a fun contest around it?

Dark Pit: (Raises an Eyebrow at Yoshi in Silence) ........................

Yoshi: ('Sighs') Okay, look, I know this is all a troublesome pain right now, but just like the announcer said: this is one time only contest. So once it's all over, we can never speak of it again and forget it ever come across our minds for the foreseeable future, okay?

Dark Pit: (Stares at Yoshi For Another Brief Second Before Sighing in Defeat) Alright, fine. (Starts Getting his Head Up From the Table Before Straightening Up the Tux He's Also Wearing) Let's get this over with already. (Points at Yoshi) You better take your words to heart on this, Dino Boy.

Yoshi: Yeah, yeah, I know. Now, perk up and explain the rules, will ya?

Dark Pit: (Rolls his Eyes as He Pick the Papers Up From the Desk In Front of Him) Uh-huh. Rules are more simple than you think. The pairs go up under to the Mistletoe and kiss one another till their heart's constant. Just do it straight to the point and keep it PG. I'm looking at you, moms. (Points at his Eyes With Two Fingers Before Pointing at his Two Moms Who Are Bpth Giggling a Tad Bit Nervously)

Yoshi: Alright, with that being said and done, let the contest commence. Oh and also, you guys in the audiences, can vote which performances would be your favorites woth a click or two on your phones. Other than that, let's start this off with one of the youngest sweethearts: Morgana and Lavenza.

Mona and Lavenza starts walking up under the Mistletoe while holding each other's hands.

Yoshi: These two lovebirds has been together for almost a year now. And fun fact: they actually started dating at Christmas morning last year. What a coincidence we're witnessing here, folks.

Lavenza happily gives her boyfriend a kiss on the cheek.

Dark Pit: And there goes the kiss from the young Velvet Girl. But what's this?

Morgana: (Takes a Deep Breath Before Muttering to Himself) No hesitation, Mona. You got this.

Dark Pit: Cat boy here starting to give himself a little pep and-

Yoshi: HOOOO MAMA!

Dark Pit: Right in the ears, man.

Yoshi: (Chuckles a Bit Awkwardly) Sorry. But look.

Dark Pit: (Turns to Sees Mona Places Two Hands onto Lavenza's Cheeks and Begins to Kiss her on the Lips as the Audience Starts 'Oooohing' at Them) Huh. Well, I'll be damned. He actually went for the lips. Lit.

Yoshi: Now that is some major confidence boost right there, folks!

Dark Pit: Yeah, I'm impressed.

The kiss itself Immediately makes the Velvet Girl blush and giggle bahfully as he dramatically falls herself into Mona's arms as he quickly catches her as the audience begins to cheer for two of them.

Lavenza: Oh Mona-Chan~

Morgana: (Already a Bit of a Blushing Messing) A-A-Are you okay, L-Lavenza?~

Lavenza: Okay? I've never been more exhilarated in my entire time!~ (Happily Hugs her Boyfriend) And I have you to thank for that, my dear~

Morgana: Yeah. D-Don't mentioned it. (Finally Begins to Walk Away With Lavenza in his Arms)

Futuba: (In the Crowd) Way to knock her out of her feet, Mona! Nyahahahahaha!~

Haru: (In the Crowd) My baby boy....he's growing up so fast!~

Yoshi: Alrighty, next up on the list is Ren Amamiya and Makoto Niijima. A pair of High school sweethearts still going strong to tis' day.

Dark Pit: One is a smart, caring mother like figure of almost every friend group she's apart of and the other is named Ren.

Ren: (Gives Dark Pit a Deadpinned Look on his Face While Standing Under the Mistletoe with Makoto) Gee, Love you too, Pitto.

Makoto: Ren, focus.

Ren: Right, right.

As they grab each other's hands, Ren and Makoto starts doing a little tango before the Queen starts spinning and dipping her man into her arms, giving him a kiss on the lips after that.

Audience: (Cheers and Applaud)

Yoshi: Wow, I gotta say. That has to be one of the most stylish Mistletoe Kiss yet.

Dark Pit: (Scoffs While Rolling his Eyes) Yeah. For a blatant showoff- Agh! (Immediately Gets a Rose Thrown at Him Before Glaring at the Culprit) Really!?

Ren: (Glares at Dark Pit While Holding a Bonquet of Roses) There's plenty more of that to come around, judge boy.

Dark Pit: (Immediately Gets Up From his Seat) Bring it then, rise boy! I ain't scared of you or your bonquet!

Makoto: Boys, stop this bickering at once. (Uses her Signature Cold Niijima Glare at Both Her Boyfriend and the Dark Angel) Or else......

Ren: Yes, ma'am.

Dark Pit: (Sits Back Down on his Seat) Won't happen again, ma'am.

Yoshi: Ha. You both got whipped-

Dark Pit: (Quickly Elbows Yoshi's Side Stomach) Do you forget we still have a contest to run?

Yoshi: (Winces in Pain) Right....(Tries Composing Himself by Clearing his Throat) Sorry about that. Anyways, next up is the lovely Destiny Island Trio stepping up to the plate. With Sora delivering kisses to two of his lovers.....

Dark Pit: ....And now they're returning the favor. (Sees Sora Happily Jump Up in the After Receiving the Kissses From his Girlfriend and Boyfriend While Screaming "Yeah!" As He Rolls his Eyes) A little too happy about it if you ask me.....

Yoshi: Hey, you'd be happy too if you received love and affection from two love partners on daily basis- Oh wait.

Dark Pit: ('Groans in Annoyance') Anyways, next up is Kirby, Viridi, and my idiot twin brother- agh! (Suddenly Gets Hit in the Face By a Snowball) What the......(Immediately Glares at the Culprit Responsible) Did you just threw a freaking snowball at me!?

Viridi: (Smirks at Dark Pit While Tossing a Snowball Up and Down) Well, duh! I'm the Goddess of Nature, bi- (Notices Kirby is Present) Uh....Jerkface!

Pit: Nice save, Vi.

Viridi: Thank you. (Turns and Grab Pit by the Collar Woth a Seductive Smirk on her Face) Now, pucker up, Angel Boi~ (Lowers Pit Down to Her Level and Kiss Him Lovingly on the Lips) ('Mmmmmmmmwah~')

Yoshi: And there she's off with a bang!

Dark Pit: Well, whaddya know? (Starts Smirking Teasingly) She didn't have to stand on her tippy toes to kiss him this time- Agh! (Gets Hit by a Snowball Again Before Growling and Glaring at Viridi Again) Enough with the snowballs already!!

Viridi: Hey, not my fault you're an easy target. Now, if you'll excuse us....(Turns to Kirby With a Smile) Ready, Kirby?

Kirby: Poyo!

As Kirby begins to sit down on the ground, Viridi uses her vines pillar to lift the pink ball up close to her and Pit's height level in order for the both of them to give him kisses on both sides of his cheeks, causing him giggle ticklishly and the crowd to cheer for them all.

Dark Pit: .......Okay, I'll admit. That's actually pretty cute.

Yoshi: Everything involving Kirby is automatically cute.

Dark Pit: True. (Turns Back to Yoshi) Who's next?

Yoshi: (Takes a Look at the List in Front of Him Before Looking Back at Dark Pit) Sonic and Amy. A guy who loves a speedy adventure and a girl who loves the Big Blue Blur himself.

Amy: (Starts Getting Nervous as She Sees the Audience Staring at her and Sonic) Oh gosh.....

Sonic: (Stretching his Arms and Legs Out) Getting cold feet there, Ames?

Amy: Kind of? I mean, I know we've done this multiple times already, but I've never thought we would ever do it in front of a crowd.....But you know what? (Clasps her Hands Together With a Fake Smile on her Face) It's fine. So what if people stare at us? Or that we're being judged on.the whole thing?

Sonic: Uhh....Amy?

Amy: I mean, it's not like it's gonna matter in the long run, right?

Sonic: Amyyyyy.

Amy: (Smile Slowly Starts Faulter into a Nervous Frown) Or that one tiny, little screw up is gonna to haunt the both of us for the rest of our lives Tull one of us kick the bucket......

Sonic: Amy

Amy: (Starts Grinning Very Awkwardly and Scaredly Now) But it's fine! It's fine! Really! I feel absolutely no pressure from it whatsoever. None. At. Allllllll-

Sonic: AMY!

Amy: (Immediately Comes Back to Reality as She Turns Back to Sonic) Yes, dear?

Sonic: (Takes a Deep Breath Before Gently Grabbing Both of his Girlfriend's Hands) Listen, I know I've said that you've been taking charge in our relationship a whole lot recently, but....how about I take the wheel for once, yeah?

Amy: I-I mean, sure, I gue-

Before she could try finishing that sentence, Sonic pulls Amy in for the most passionate kiss on the lips, he has given to her yet, much to the surprise of everyone else present in the same room. This, in it of itself, causes the pink, red dressed hedgehog to forget about the anxiety and worries about tonight's contest and instead let the kiss received from her loving boyfriend, over take her train of thought and making her legs wobble to the point where Sonic begins to pick her up from the ground she's standing on.

Sonic: So? How was that for a Mistletoe kiss?

Amy: (Completely Speechless) ....................

Sonic: I-It wasn't too much, was it? I mean, I know I'm not as nearly as romantic as you, but-

Amy: A-

Sonic: Hm?

Amy: A-A......Aaaaasa- (Eyes Begins to Sparkle Towards Sonic) Amazing~

Audience begins to cheer and applaud for the couple

Sonic: ('Sighs in Relief') Oh thank God you like it- I mean! (Quickly Waves his Quills Back in a Non-Calonte Manner) Yeah. ('Sniff') I know it is. But anyways....(Starts Looking For Something From his Coat Pocket) About we go back to your place for some hot coco? (Throws a Golden Ring to the Ground, Causing It to Grow Large and Create a Destination Portal in Front of Him and Amy) It'll be my treat.

Amy: Yeah. I love Hot Coco. (Starts Snuggling Up on Sonic's Shoulder) And you~

Sonic: (Chuckles Lightly as He Takes Himself and Amy into the Giant Ring, Disappearing Itself Within a Few Seconds) Love you too, Ames. I love you too.

Dark Pit: (Almost at a Loss For Words at What They Just Saw) Huh. Did not expect Sonic, of all people, to be that romantic.

Yoshi: He's been woth Amy for three or four years now, right? Maybe it got him to learn a thing or two about it overtime?

Dark Pit: It's possible. ('Sigh') But speaking of which, last and.....unfortunately not least, we have the final couple taking inner stage, Palutena and- (Suddenly Felt Something Tapping the Side of his Back Before He Turns to See a Shy Guy Staring at Him) What? What?

The Shy Guy gives DP a single piece of paper before running off.

Dark Pit: What the.....(Starts Reading the Paper Given to Him) Wait......(Eyes Begins to Widened at Each Word Written on the Letter) No way.......(Balls his Fist Up Together and Looks Up at the Ceiling Above Him) Oh thank you, merciful Goddess Mom, our eyes are saved!!

Yoshi: Why? What happened?

Dark Pit starts whispering in the green dinosaur's ears about what letter says. It didn't take long for his eyes to widened as well.

Yoshi: You're kidding.

Dark Pit: Nope. It's true. (Gives Yoshi the Letter to Read) Take a look at thos yourself.

Yoshi: (Starts Speed Reading the Letter as his Eyes Widens Again Before Finally Sighing in Relief) This really is a Christmas Miracle.....(Starts Clearing his Throat Before Turning Back at Audience) Uh....due to sudden circumstances, our last contestants has decided to dropout the competition at the very last second.

Dark Pit: Which means it's time to tally up the votes. (Turns to Yoshi) If you would?

Yoshi: Why, certainly. (Picks His Tablet Up From the Desk and Begins Counting the Votes Together) Okay. Coming in 3rd Place with 86 votes, are Ren and Makoto.......Second place with 96 votes are the Trio: Pit, Viridi, and Kirby.

Kirby: (Happily Cheers in Rejoice) Poyo!!~

Pit: (Raises his Fist Up in the Air in Rejoice as Well) I'm not dead last for something for once!~

Viridi: (Giggles Softly at How Cute her Two Boys Are Being)

Yoshi: And now, yhe 1st Place winner of the Mistletoe Contest are.......(Starts Looking Closy at the Votes Before His Eyes Starts to Widens Yet Again) Oh crap. Coming in at a whopping 225 votes is a tie between Mona X Lavenza and Sonic X Amy!

Morgana: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock) We won!? (Happily Jumps and Pumps his Fists Up in the Air) We woooooon!!!~

Lavenza: (Smiles Brightly as She Happily Hugs Her Boyfriend in Glee) A tied match up, but still a victory nonetheless!~

Yoshi: Shy Guys, show 'em what they've won!!

Shy Guy: We don't have prizes for them to give.

All the contestants turn their faces at the two judges as Pitto Immediately starts to remember something.

Dark Pit: Ah shit. I knew we forgot something!

Yoshi: Uhhhh.....How about we all have a pizza, movie night party tomorrow? Our treat.

The Contestants: (Stares at the Duo For a Few Seconds Before Nodding in Agreement) Yeah, sure/ Okay./ We can do that. Better than nothing./ Mmhmm.

Sora: I like Pizza Parties.

Dark Pit: And there you have it, folks. Our first and only Mistletoe Contest of the year-

Yoshi: Waiwaiwait! Hold on a second!

Dark Pit: ('Groans') What now?

Yoshi: Before we end this off forever, there's still a very secret contestants that has yet participate.

Dark Pit: I'm sorry. (Raises an Eyebrow in Confusion) Secret contestants? The hell are you referring to-

??????: Ohhh Pitto-Kins?~

Dark Pit's eyes starts to widens as he turns back and forth to see his two girlfriends, Misako and Kyoko, standing on both sides of him wearing their respective colored lipsticks (Misako's Red and Kyoko's Hot Pink) while holding up a mistletoe of their own above the three of them. This in turn, causes the dark angel to slowly turns his head back at Yoshi with a glare on his face.

Dark Pit: You motherfucker.

Yoshi: (Immediately Holds his Hands Up in Front of Him) Hey, this was NOT my idea! They're the ones who wanted to keep it a secret till the end.

Kyoko: (Giggles Softly) It's true. We wanted it to make it a surprise~

Misako: (Smirks at her Dark Angel) And what better way to do that than to give our cute, brooding boyfriend all the love and kisses we can muster?~

Kyoko: (Starts Smirking at DP as Well) Ready to do this, honey-bun-

Dark Pit: (Immediately Gets Up From his Seat) Wait! (Starts Stretching his Arms and Legs Before Cracking his Neck a Little and Taking a Deep Breath) Okay, proceed-

Without any form of warning, Dark Pit immediately gets tackled down to the ground by his two girlfriends as he begins to receive cuddles and multiple kisses from the both of them.

Yoshi: And there you really have it, folks. The secret contestants are kissing the night away and the contest itself has finally come to a close. We, in the Smash Family, would like to thank you all for coming out tonight for this special event and hope you all a wonderful holidays afterwards. This is Yoshi, signing off.

Misako/Kyoko: We love you, Pitto-Kins!~

Dark Pit: Idiots!......I love you too......

Misako/Kyoko: (Mmmmmmwah'!~)

[teeto-peteto]

Strange question, but I’m curious: Hypothetical SG slice of life anime/show actual magical girl series. What champions do you think would make good magical girl villains of the week? If so why?

I think Vladimir would be a good fit, have him lure Star guardians to feed on their magic to stay alive, Jhin could be fun as both a straight villain and a red herring when there’s a new drama teacher and everyone assumes he’s the villain but he’s just a dramatic guy. Anyway, no pressure, I’m just curious.

In my opinion it highly depends on wich type of magical girl anime you take inspo into, i believe Star Guardian took a lot of Sailor Moon references for the first team and maaaaybe the second? And the next ones became more Madoka Magica kind of storyline. So it very much depends.

By taking Sailor Moon for inspiration, honestly all the champions (non star guardians) can become episodic villains. As 90's Sailor Moon just keep a small reduced group of champions for the 'this is the main villain', 'these could be redeemed' and the 'these are a lost cause'. A girl with anger issues and problems with her dad that turns into a terrific dragon cause her crush wont pick up the phone? Good. A little mummy/emo child that cries until he drowns everyone in his tears? Also good. Massive kraken lady causing distress around the school after a messy breakup? Also good. Use the champions like Nocturne or Bel'Veth be the main season villains that send stuff to mess up the students and make them become monsters that the Star Guardians have to save and purify to revert the spell. Once you think about it, it could be cool to see all the champions have their little villain spotlight.

As for a Madoka Magica type of storyline, i have to give an ''''''unpopular opinion'''''''. I dont like corrupted Star Guardian skins, wich doesnt mean that they arent pretty, or cool, i just mean that i dont really feel that ''corruption'' it shows on the name. Both Morgana and Zoe are sassy but...? Yeah once we know about Harp we can understand how Zoe got corrupted but it never looked like she cared that much...? She doesnt look hurt, neither does Morgana, they do feel like episodic villains because i see them so plain. Fiddlesticks is... well, better, really tackled on that 'I was once a magical girl and turned into a horrific mush of a witch' that Madoka Magica has, but again, i dont really see suffering, i see funny sticky leg Fiddlesticks tossing starlight around.

As for champions i would pick for this type of storyline someone sent an ask not so long ago about Pyke possibilities of being a corrupted guardian and also Sarah is there, as Madoka Magica likes to go deep into the characters emotions in this example we could see Pyke slowly fading into corruption as a cause of isolation, mistrust, abandonentment issues, etc, directly implying Sarah cause she was a part of the problem aswell and make it so that pain actually feels like a menace once corruption completely takes over. As for other champions, I believe Annie could be a good example of familiar issues/death of a loved one and childhood trauma like Nagisa was on Madoka Magica and make her small and seemingly defenseless but with a huge power that could set a star guardian on fire without hesitation. Kalista would be a good option with the grief, revenge and broken promises mix up making her an extremely aggresive enemy. There's actually a bunch to think of if you dig into their trauma.

[diveyne]

morgana, while kind and sweet and compassionate, is equally dramatic and a little vain to some degree, and does enjoy attention, so she's definitely that girl who plays violin or piano in public. like if she goes to a shopping center or mall with a giant piano just in the center of somewhere, she will be saying get OUT my way and sitting down to play something beautiful, and also probably posts these things for tiktok.

the cavernous rot has been growing in my brain since I was 7 years old. and it has not stopped growing in the 15 years since. the day these blorbos go dormant is the day i die.

Merthur (obviously I'm not stupid i have eyes. i knew these fucks were gay before i knew i was gay. and before i knew what gay was)

Merlin (love the "baby gorl to tired grump" arc. also he is the peak of twink-for-title-character)

Arthur (pathetic damp kitten. i want to feed him decency through a little dropper. and maybe slap him round the head a bit. because he is dumb and also stupid)

Gwen (best character in this series. not favorite because i don't pick those but objectively best person and best written character)

Gwaine (obligatory bisexual with ADHD)

Lancelot (sad boy hours and also the only man with a braincell in the whole show. if you want this show to hurt more, watch it with the reading that Lance is in love with Merlin)

The Knights™ (they are like little puppies)

Morgana (tragically)

Aithusa (deserved better)

Gaius (i may have stolen my personality from him as a child. the world will never know)

Six of Crows

specifically the books and season 2 of the Netflix adaptation. nothing against it, but i never got into the rest of the grishaverse. just these goofs

Kaz Brekker (my child (derogatory) i picked up this series because i heard about him and i was right to do so. grumpy lil storm cloud with his dramatic ass crow cane. i want that cane so bad)

Inej (i relate to her growth and love her badassery)

Kanej (Kaz x Inej) (only straights in this series i support. grump for grump supremacy. they both need someone to put them in their place and this works perfectly. also the Angst™ hits different with these two)

Jesper (obligatory bisexual with adhd. dramatic bitch i love him)

Wylan (my child (affectionate) small kitten that deserves the world and got nothing. nothing and Jesper)

Wesper (Wylan x Jesper) (because obviously. also the fanfic of them that was the adaptation was adorable if entirely separate. if you only look at the show their romcom ass storyline is the perfect foil for whatever kanej have going on. they watered my crops for months.)

Kesper (Kaz and Jesper) (not my main ship for either of them and they aren't necessarily romantic or sexual but there is something queer here. i don't know what, but something. found family. queerplatonic. exes turned besties. something)

Nina (i love her so much. also give her a girlfriend yesterday. i honestly don't care which girlfriend, just any girlfriend)

Ted Lasso

This is my newest set of children but i love them so much. this show has knocked me off my feet

Roy Kent (grump of the year. i am stealing several of his lines both as vocal stims and as personal catchphrases)

Jamie Tartt (it's the growth for me. and he is baby girl. also obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd)

Keeley Jones (the smartest one on the show i swear to God. i will die on that hill. they all need therapy and Keeley is the closest a lot of them get for a long time. until Sharon)

RoyJamieKeeley (i will go down with this ship in my clown makeup after that korrasami ass ending) (also the ship names in this fandom are absolute shit. where's the creativity? the flavor?)

Ted (obviously but i do love him so much. he reminds me a lot of the friend that got me into this show)

Beard (i haven't related to a character so much in a long time. he's quiet and he's in the background but he's still important and he's always on top of everything because he's an observer. but he's a mess himself. i wish we had gotten more of him)

Nate (joker arc and all)

Rebecca (girlboss)

Higgens (i love how everyone is so intense in one way or another and higgens is just a dude™)

Sam Obisanya (i just got him but if anything happens to him i will kill everyone)

Dani Rojas (i love this goofy ADHD little fucker. i love how bouncy and small he is and i love how he says his own name like a little pokemon)

Trent Crimm (sarcastic, bitter, gay, old man trying to be better? that's several of my boxes. and his hair is perfect)

tedependant (Ted x trent, also know as the singular acceptable ship name in this whole fandom. it's like the straights beat us to all of them except this one) (I'm not even to the point where there is a lot to go on, but this ship is adorable. they are a perfect sunshine/raincloud couple especially with Trent's season 3 arc which i have been told about before getting to)

Phoebe (she gets RoyJamie together by asking a kid question or saying something innocent that clicks it into place for them, fight me)

Puppet History

i did not expect to get so hype about this series when i got into it but here we are

the professor (need i say more)

Descendants

my friend has a recurring hyperfixation with these movies and the fandom and i got dragged into it this time around. and honestly, no regrets. Kenny Ortega can do no wrong

Uma (i love her)

Harry Hook (obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd. "i never learned to count because I'm number one" ass bitch)

Ben (begrudgingly because he is a little flat, but harry can fix that)

Benry (Ben x Harry) (see above)

Malvie (Evie x Mal. Mal is my least favorite character that i actually like but this ship. it just makes sense)

Umal (Uma x Mal. also just makes sense)

Jay (best himbo boy)

Carlos (my lil guy)

Dude (i am stealing him from Carlos)

Gil (Himbo²)

Gay (gil x jay, they have the single best ship name in the series. top 10 ship names of all time in my book. also they have so much chemistry in like two minutes of screentime together and for what? studios need to allow Kenny Ortega to let booboo Stewart kiss a man)

Doug (Doug is transfem and helps Evie realize she is a lesbian. fight me on this. i will win)

Hades (hear me out: is he a bad dad? yes. is he kinda shitty? yes. but that deadbeat dad duet kicked ass and if you engage with the other stuff like the wedding short, he has growth. and he's played by Cheyenne Jackson. and his lair is a vibe)

IT Crowd

after watching this as a kid and not thinking about this show for a little under a decade, the hyperfixation slapped me hard in the face literally the night before it was taken off of Netflix. i will die mad about it

Roy (fuckin dork. "have you tried turning it off and on again" has lived rent free in my mind even when the rest of the show wasn't. that and "0118-999-88199-9119-725...3" also, fight me, obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd)

Moss (one of the first examples of a heavily autistic coded character i remember relating to as a child. i love him)

Roy x Moss (i refuse to acknowledge their ship name because it uses Roy's last name. that was mentioned literally once and Ross is right there) (this ao3 tag is how i survived the month of march. and part of April. there are less than 300 in the tag and like 80 of them are one person in the last two years. thank you to that person)

Richmond (the best character. wish there was more of them)

Douglas (Matt Berry strikes again. like 15 years ago but still)

New Girl

one of my red flag sitcoms. when this pops up in my Netflix history it is always because i am depressed. but it is actually a good show and they moved it to Hulu, so it's fine probably

Nick Miller (the similarities i have with this man are upsetting. for everyone else. I'm fine. probably)

Schmidt (baby girl. derogatory)

Winston (my best lil weirdo)

Jess (i may be Nick, but i have a friend that is Jess. to defend my case, it is the same friend who got me into both descendants and Ted lasso in the span of one month. the only difference between us and the characters is that we have no romantic chemistry and are both aro)

Cece (obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd. but she is the rare femme variety. and also somehow the braincell of the group. i love her

Schmece (hell of a ship name for a hell of a ship)

Dracula Daily

i read the book as a kid, so last year i thought I'd get the memes if i just followed the tag but i got lost so fast. so this year i made the mistake of actually following dracula daily and re: dracula and now i can't get it out of my head

Johnathan Harker (baby girl)

Mina (boss ass bitch)

(i am slightly behind due to my other hyperfixations, but i know more of these guys will join the list as the year goes on)

Renfield

i watched this with my friends because of dracula, and i love it so much. i know this movie is fairly recent but it needs more fics immediately. go watch it. it about two pathetic men breaking up and one of them having his bisexual awakening with Awkwafina, the girlboss. and Ben Schwartz and Nicolas cage are there

Renfield (say it with me: it's about the growth)

Rebecca Quincy (girlboss)

Nicolas Cage (Dracula)

Tedward "Teddy" Lobo (yes that is his canonical name. he is played by Ben Schwartz and i love this goofy little fuck. i also hate him. it is a Blorbo specific love-hate thing)

The Therapist from the support group (have i forgotten his name? yes. does that matter? no. he has taken up a small corner of my brain and he is just a funky lil dude)

More to come as i inevitably continue to juggle several hyperfixations at a time, gaining them quicker than i lose them. wish me luck

i have decided to start keeping an ongoing list of Official Blorbos™️ of 2023 because i am collecting them left and right and there is so much coming out this summer.

Criteria:

a blorbo here is defined as a character who has wormed their way into one of the fandom cavities in my brain and are living there rent free for two weeks or longer weather or not i have actively engaged with their canon that day. this is can on their own as a character i'r as part of a ship that has started spreading brain spores

of 2023 means that the blorbage has to be active. i have many Blorbos already, all of whom i love. but this list is for blorbos who's dens are free of cobwebs and whose fields are watered since the start of the year

there probably will be multiple Blorbos per media, they are all my children and i will not pick favorites. and if i say favorite, ignore me i am excited

[depressed-writer9000]

Also fuck Morgana, not even literally I don't even fucking like her, like bro she's just a petty ass bitch and not even one that I can be proud of, and normally I LIKE the villains but like, no fuck no, she's just a dramatic ass bitch who has nothing better to do with her life but make everyone miserable, like miss girl, grow the fuck up 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

[gaybarbiegirl]

retj for the fandom ask and obviously you get to differenciate the character by 2010 retj or italian retj <33 or if it's not enough characters you can take french musicals as a whole it Works

Let's go girl!! I'll try to stick to retj as much as possible here but if I feel like there's an item that fits another musical better we're making a little switch

Blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)

Italian Mercutio my beloved!! You know I absolutely love him girl!! His energy is spot on, and his personality, sluttiness and little crush on Romeo were amazing. I couldn't focus on anything else whenever he was on screen because he just stole the show that hard, and the fact that he managed to make me cry laugh AND almost scream with excitement AND to break my heart in just one single scene still has me in awe. He's the absolute best, Shakespeare wishes he wrote him <3

Scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)

Italian Romeo my wholesome dumbass boy!! He was so so sweet and I mean so was Juliet, but maybe because he got more focus as a character I feel like specifically his little crush on Juliet could really nail down that energy of a sweet, innocent first love that never should have ended this way. He was very cute and earnest and very naive and oblivious too and it just makes for a very lovable mix.

Scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)

I'm going with Benvolio for this one. I totally understand why he's the least popular of the main characters and ends up a little forgotten, he really doesn't have the big personalities of Mercutio and Tybalt or the intense dramatic storylines of Romeo and Juliet, but he's still a very good voice of reason character to have around and the official braincell holder of the group. AND he sings the saddest song in the entire musical that I also absolutely love so you know, I really appreciate what he adds to the story.

Glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)

Sorry to break away from retj but Leia from La Légende du Roi Arthur my beloved!!! I swear this character is so funny because I mean really she does fuck all the entire musical and she's still my favorite. Like she stands around Morgana and Guinevere pretty often, she does little evil grins at the audience while the other villains are doing the action part, at one point she picks a handkerchief off the ground and then places it back on the ground a few cm to the left...................... and yet. It's the power of being a hot goth dancer I guess.

Poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)

Girl you know how this goes if you said pathetic fave you said italian Tybalt absolutely <3 little loser emo kid who has a wolf inside him and it's himself, what else could I ask for here?

Horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)

Can I just say Tybalt again 😭 though to shake things up I'm going with 2010 Tybalt this time, and I mean judging by what we saw in the musical at every minor inconvenience this guy goes on a long musical soliloquy about how his parents didn't love him where the chorus is just him repeating his own name so. Yeah I'm in for a fun time here.

Eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)

Girl I genuinely have no clue I don't think there were any musical characters yet that I've hated this much.

Thank you so much for the ask!!!

All the arthurian movies I watched from best to worst (imho)

Regarding my opinions and my taste: I am okay with low budget, bad special effects and even bad/weird acting, I prefer enjoyment over any kind of historical accuracy. I also enjoy cheesy movies, and I prefer characters over plot, and plot over the rest (pace, acting etc.).I tend to prefer movies that uses characters with a reason (ex. using Morgause as Arthur's sister versus using a random guy and calling him Gaheris just because it's an arthurian sounding name). I am also a bit Mordred fan.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Camelot (musical, 1982 or the Vanessa Redgrave version) - this musical is one of my favorite musicals and one of my favorite arthurian adaptations. It makes Arthur a true protagonist and really put a lot of effort into showing how complex and important his dream is (also I love movies where a character has to renounce to something to protect an ideal)

Excalibur Kid (1999) - best trashy Connecticut Yankee movie, with Morgause as Arthur's sister and focusing on the protagonist convincing Arthur to be a king

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (cartoon) - the best adaptation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

Sire Gauvain et le Chevalier Vert (French short) - the best non animated Gawain story at the moment

The Sword in the Stone

Sword of Lancelot (1963) - a classic Lancelot and Guinevere story, but probably because of the hawk-bearing Mordred and his plotting I really enjoyed it

A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1988) - a great adaptation of the book with a girl as the protagonist. It has nothing too different from usual, but the protagonist is great and Guinevere has a much bigger role than usual

Morte d'Arthur (1984) - a movie of just scenes and an external narrator, but it is so well done and some of the scene (Mordred's betrayal!) are amazing

Excalibur (1981)

Merlin and Arthur the Lion King - a cartoon, so expects it to be very kids-friendly, but it still manages to be fun and also one of the two movies with a Mordred redemption

Dragons of Camelot - extra trashy, but has a very thigh pace and gives a lot of depth to the characters, mostly Guinevere, Morgana, Lancelot and Galahad. It's so bad that it's good.

Merlin and the Sword - an extra trashy movie, but there are so many plot points (Nimue and Merlin, Ragnelle and Gawain, Lancelot and Guinevere, Morgana) that it ends up being entertaining

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword - pretty fun, a lot of strange humorous pacing, but using Kay as a random name, and not enough arthurian elements, it was clearly made to be the first of a series and kept a lot of elements for the future that never happened

A Knight in Camelot - another good Connecticut Yankee adaptation, with an interesting twist at the end

Arthur and Merlin (2015) - historical based, very nice visuals but Arthur and Merlin are the only real characters in the movie (and the only arthurian characters) and it seems more like it is setting the scene for a bright future that never comes, also very slow

New adventures of a Connecticut Yankee - this is so low because it's in Russian and I don't know Russian, but the visuals are AMAZING

The Knights of the Round Table (1953)

King Arthur: Knights of the Round Table (2017) - not really arthurian characters just strange reincarnations, a lot of absurd plot points, but pretty fun and one of the two movies in existence to have a Mordred redemption. Also, aliens. Far too long.

Percival 2007 - it was in Portoguese so I could understand little, but it looked very dramatic?

Quest for Camelot - the cartoon! Probably this is my nostalgia bias

King Arthur - good actors, not boring, but also nothing special and mostly focused on Lancelot and Arthur

Merlin and the Book of Beasts - classic 'Arthur's daughter has to reclaim the kingdom', but it glossed over the whole Mordred thing.

Arthur's Quest - a classic modern reincarnated Arthur fighting Morgana

A young connecticut yankee in King Arthur's court - a bad movie but so so fun. It also has evil Galahad and an amazing Morgana

Prince Valiant -classic Valiant adventure with more Gawain

Prince Valiant (1997) - classic Valiant adventure

Merlin and the War of Dragons - the plot is all over the place, but it manages to put together Igraine and Uther with Merlin's backstory. The only interesting part is the whole Nimue vs Viviane.

Avalon High (2010) - this low for having butchered the novel and ending up with confusing the plot and the whole sense of the novel. Still, definitely fun to watch for the right public.

First Knight - not too bad, but a bit boring and a story already seen. A classic Lancelot/Guinevere.

Guinevere (1994) - this is a mediocre movie about Guinevere and a loose adaptation of Persia Woolley's books.

Merlin the Return - so bad but also weirdly fun, a part for extra sexist Gawain

A kid in King Arthur's Court - my least favorite Connecticut Yankee movie, mostly because I really disliked the protagonist and the pace

King Arthur: Excalibur Rising - very slow pacing, focusing on Owain (here Arthur's son) vs Mordred, but spends little time on the characters themselves and mostly on setting Owain's big sword revelation and stuff

Lancelot du Lac (Lancelot and Guinevere) - I hate this movie. It's the classic Mordred finds out about Guinevere and Lancelot, but all the characters appear pretty boring with the exception of Gawain.

The Spaceman and King Arthur - this is so high in the list because it adds something new to the usual Connecticut Yankee story. But it's bad and pretty sexist.

Camelot The Legend cartoon - they sing and it's very bad

Sword of the Valiant - which is this low for the absurd way the butchered Gawain and the Green Knight

Merlin of the Crystal Cave - mostly focused on child Merlin and his mother

Merlin (1993) - not really an arthurian movie, as it's a modern times reincarnated lady of the lake stopping a prophecy. Nothing too exciting

Un espanol en la corte del rey Artur - a musical

Arthur and Merlin: Knights of Camelot - takes itself too seriously, Merlin is in it just for 10 minutes, focusing on Arthur's self angst, a lot of plot-points that makes little sense

Lancelot: Guardian of Time - this movie is weirdly fun, but the bad outweighs everything else, especially the sexism

The Sorcerer's Apprentice 2010 and 2002 - just bad, I hated both this movies but I preferred the 2020 one.

Pendragon: Sword of his Father - worst movie EVER. This is not an arthurian movie, just Christian propaganda with Arthur in it. It also makes no sense arthurian-wise.

Kaamelott part 1
