i did mention this to venus, but what a beautiful sight it was to witness ahsoka wholeheartedly training alongside her master's holos instead of simply listening to his old recordings, as she'd been doing in rebels.
that time previously spent with his holo-recordings had been more about bringing anakin back for a little while. her meditations with them were for the purpose of easing the still weeping wounds of his loss and her confusion over the fact. safe to say ahsoka was lonely without him. but now that she has faced her guilt head on, tested and triumphed over it, and decided that she must live a life that explores her purpose and her path, not only the one that seems to need her the most....
now it's about making him proud. continuing the legacy that has finally become one of victory, not one of loss and darkness.

"Main character death" this "graphic displays of violence" that.
Add a second hand embarrassment tag, A03. That's what requires mental preparation.

More notes for Roach conlanging. Roach has grammatical gender, in which only Male, Female, and Object are grammatical genders, whereas Worker uses feminine grammar, Queen and King use a slight variant on feminine grammar, and Drone, and Queen-Alate use masculine grammar. This is because King is derived from Queen, due to their similar positions in a colony, and Queen-Alate is derived from Drone, as both are forms of alate.
Queen is an alteration of feminine grammar that functionally just adds a handful of extra syllables to it, and King is an offsprout of Queen that uses the same grammar with different pronouns. Queen-Alate, despite the name, is derived from Drone, as they are both for referring to different types of alate ant.
Most Roach dialects are intelligible to speakers of Snakemouth Den Cordyceps Roach, but Snakemouth Den Cordyceps Roach is not entirely intelligable to speakers of Roach dialects due to a mix of the excessively specialized vocabulary caused by the specific needs of its speakers, the fact that its speakers do not necessarily have Roach mouthparts and thus may not pronounce syllables in a similar way, and due to the fact that Inanimate Object is a full grammatical gender that does not exist in any other dialect of roach and replaces a decent chunk of terminology for things that previously had Other Words For Them.
#we speak#conlang#bug fables#please excuse us if we're mangling the terminology here btw. we cannot for the life of us remember the proper terms for half of this#and every time we try to google things it winds up turning up nothing#probably because we're googling shit like “the term for the thing where self reference is different if youre a guy or a girl”#and like. “part of speech that you use to refer to other people that isnt pronouns or a name that has title associations”#if we reread some textbooks we will probably remember but unfortunately these are not our textbook reference posts#they are our “what if we told you about the cool ways that we did grammar in here” post#god we love grammatical grammar (<guy who doesn't have a strong enough sense of gender to remember der and die properly)#(because we are the specific type of speaker where we're half operating based on what Feels Right with the word and we are)#(so fucking bad at remembering how gendering words is meant to go)#(the secret reason we hate phonetics is because we have to contend with both figuring out how mouthparts would work and like)#(Working Out A Reasonable Collection Of Sounds To Have In Our Language. which means we have to actually like. name things)#(cruel and unusual that we have to make actual words rather than loosely tossing building blocks on the floor. honestly.)#anyways snakemouth den roach is one of those dialects where it's on the verge of becoming a language on its own#where it's very debatable on if it's Actually A New Language or just a very specific dialect of an old one because. well. boxes#picture it as like. trying to speak to someone who you Think is speaking french but they have an extremely thick regional accent#and they keep using like ten-syllable words that you probably don't know but that seem to refer to things that could be referred to#way more concisely?#and also rather than just le and la they have added an entire new lu to the mix and you are unclear if its the accent or a new word entirel#(note: we are not a specialist on french as we primarily know it in the “we've been around it long enough to vaguely know what's being said#way and are not currently caught up enough on whatever they have going on to know about any major grammar stuff going on over there)#(but we are terrible enough with remembering the grammar of the german that we do speak that we do not trust ourself to not be Worse there)

Hi, I'm sorry, I know it's been a long time but I found an old post of yours where you say that the mangaka of Gakuen Alice said that Natsume and Mikan relationship is not safe or comfortable, did they really say that? I had no idea. What else has the author said about their relationship? I'm curious (⁠ㆁ⁠ω⁠ㆁ⁠)
hi <3
There's really no worries about ever sending me an ask, especially if it's GA related. I'll pretty much always answer <3
And that would be from the Memorial Book, where, according to some fan translations I've seen here and otherwise online (because there is no official English translation), Higuchi Tachibana said something along the lines of Natsume not getting too comfortable or sure of himself or thinking he "won." Essentially she's implying Ruka and Hotaru still have a shot with Mikan because she might change her mind about Natsume so he shouldn't get cocky or some other bullcrap like that.
I feel like it's understandable that I despise that line of thinking so I more or less ignore the Memorial Book and everything about the ending in general (excluding the Little Red Riding Hood comic and the HotaRuka crumbs). I've talked at length about why that type of commentary bothers me here. I just generally don't really care much about what the mangaka says anymore. I love her story and I love her art but her personal opinions, even about her own characters, do not matter to me at all.
I'm not sure what else she said in the Memorial Book or otherwise. She mentioned Natsume would have a slightly longer life because of Mikan's alice stone but that he'd still die young, and after that Mikan would probably be with Ruka (if the picture she drew of them together is supposed to be taken as canon). She mentioned somewhere (I don't recall where) that Natsume wasn't planned to be the "victor" but he just emerged in the lead at some point and she went along with it, which I always took to be a bit ridiculous because SHE WROTE THIS STORY. The characters lead you places but if she really preferred Ruka as the one Mikan ended up with then she should have written that from the beginning and IMHO, it was always Natsume from the start so no I don't buy that.
I realllyyyyyy don't like being negative about GA so I usually don't think about the canon ending, Memorial Book, or Higuchi Tachibana much. I love this manga with my whole heart and always will, but I really don't like it when creators rag on something fans love just to be edgy or contrary or whatnot. It makes me feel like they don't respect me for liking something THEY made, and if they don't respect me then I don't really wanna respect them. I feel similarly about actors shitting on past projects I like, but this one takes the cake in making me feel Not Great because of how much I love GA and NatsuMikan. It's just a huge slap in the face and always was, since the first time I read that comment of hers.
Since then, neither the canon ending nor the Memorial Book have existed to me.
Death of the author applies to lots of works but to me it has always applied to GA and always will!
#anonymous#answered#ga#gakuen alice#ooh getting reminded of that unfunny joke.... grr why would anyone say that???#abt a ship THEY wrote???#i mean i know why. its bc leaving it open is a way of giving hope to all fans#with literally no regard for the sanctity of the story she spent a decade writing#idc if she liked natsume by the end of it or got sick of the story or whatever. by saying that nonsense#she left a gross taste in all natsumikan shippers mouths and i feel kinda disrespected by it#ten years for a ship to develop and slowly win over ur fans' hearts#to the point that it is the majority of the fans' favorite part of the manga. u then make the ship canon#have them confess and propose to each other and kiss and be devoted to each other#and then bc ur personally salty for whatever dumb reason decide to invalidate your OWN STORY to say#mikans feelings arent even that strong and actually she might leave a guy she gave her alice up for#in order to have emotional affairs w other ppl to satisfy other shippers or whatnot#ITS STUPID AND GROSS AND I HATE IT.#honestly this and the ending and the unfortunate implications abt child abuse#and her comments abt liking natsume/aoi and subaru/hotaru incest as well as the age gaps#do i rly HAVE to respect her as a person beyond this story i like that she wrote that i have separated from her a long time ago?#i love ga i love nm i love the characters i love much of the story.... i dont actually care abt the mangaka. that is all.#long post#ish#mainly for the tags honestly#whatever i wish i could be more positive in these answers but its not a subject i feel positively about so...#but if you are a nm shipper ignore that nonsense okay? we're in this together and we're not stupid and our ship's not built on weak bones#<3 read some fanfiction since its by people who actually care about natsumikan lmao <3 itll be okay

Okay this isn’t about the doctor’s current activities this is just a thought but we are NOT talking enough about how Kate put herself through a mental spiral knowing full well it’s going to happen, how sorry and shaken she was afterward, the Doctor’s little comforting “No it’s alright,” and him and Shirley not holding what she said against her whatsoever. Why are we not TALKING about these FOUR hits in a row????

i feel like ten and martha's friendship is kind of doomed from the start because like. ten kind of needs a friend to be around him lest he go insane (even if he's in semi denial about it). and martha likes and admires him in return. and they both inherently trust and rely each other, because how could they not. but also ten is very much not in a great place at all. he just lost rose and refuses to talk about her with anyone. the guilt is eating him alive and he's trying so hard to ignore it and it's resulting in him becoming more and more reckless and self-sacrificing. and he (unintentionally) puts it all on martha. he trusts her to save him and he also trusts her to sacrifice him in the name of saving people. and at the same time every time he finds himself getting closer to or more vulnerable with her he stops and pushes her away (see: his guilt over rose). and that is so unfair. that is so much to put on one person, especially someone that is in a spot of mutual care and trust. like i wish martha had met ten when he was more stable/healthy/not haunted by his extremely fresh grief but she didn't, and i think they will save each other over and over until one of them comes apart at the seams. basically
