Leoclese and Donotos from cabin 5 are going around and telling science jokes! Do your turtles accept his request?👀

Leoclese: if you said no, too bad! What did one tectonic plate say to the other when they crashed? "Sorry! My fault!"

(Leo grinned at his other self.)

"Well-"

(you briefly hear Kadeens voice in your heads, Leo oddly winces.)

"WHERE THERES A WATER WHEEL, THERES A WATER WAAAAY!!"

(Leo facepalms, snickering into his hand.)

"Pfffft goddammit she's still on that...."

Sooo after my bestie @wayward-sherlock pointed out that Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youths is literally the perfect song for Mike getting Vecna’d and Will begging him to live and come back, I listened to the song again and promptly had a mini mental breakdown, so then ofc I listened to I Know the End bc I was in the right mood, and I ended up feeling really inspired so-

-I spit balled a poem about Mike getting Vecna’d from Will’s POV. It *attempts* to combine phrases, motifs, and themes from Achilles Come Down and I Know the End, and it is definitely one of the messiest poems I have ever written in my typical poetry style so I have no idea if it’s genius or literal word vomit (it definitely will not make sense to u if you don’t listen to the two songs so go and do that if u haven’t already at some point), but I figured I should share it here and let you guys decide that hehe (cries)

Haha anyway… Enjoy the results of my Greek mythology and Pheobe Bridgers induced mental breakdown 🫡

To Swing in our Rusty Memory (like the age old pact)

An old, haunted house

Somewhere in Indiana

Old memories

A swingset, rusty and

Metal damp from Rain

Do you remember

The promise

The pact we made

Do you, do you, do you

Don’t.

Don't listen to Him

Stay, and swing

Swing with me

In my loving memory

I’ll keep you close

Where you go, I’ll go too

So tell me

Tell me, is it the same

For you

Would you stay

Will you stay

Stay and swing

Swing with me

A reason to live or to die, you say

Oh sure

Just rip

Rip him away from me

Just go ahead and rip and tear

him away

All I have left

Of a happier time

Of a swingset

Rusty with rain

Lie, lie, lie

That is all

all they do

Do not listen to their whispers

Their callousness

It is all a Falsehood

I beg of you, Do not listen.

When we held

One another

An innocent touch

Hand to hand

So light

How can that be Wrong

Please, please, remember

Remember our

Swingset

All rusty and old

When you reached for my hand

It can be new again

We

Can be new

New again

As the end approaches

As the world falls away

I want, I need

Need you

By my side

So please, please

Step away from Him

From Them

Choose the Rain

The Rust

Choose Us.

Choose our swingset

And come Swing

Swing with me

In our loving Memory

I promise

Like our age old pact

Where you go, I’m going

Like our age old pact

The End is near

So come. Come Home

And I swear won’t desert you

Don't ask me why I thought of this (I don't even know) but I feel like if Ciel and Lizzie tried to discuss a book...they could but it would be something like:

Ciel: [Brings an extremely insightful although quite edgy at times analysis of the characters and overall theme of the story.]

Lizzie: [She liked the book but was there for the vibe, didn't really think to analyze anything much]

(This ISN'T a "Lizzie is stupid" post. I love Lizzie. She's really smart and capable and if anyone even so much DARES to talk shit about her in those extremely misogynistic or Clearly-didnt-understand-her-character-at-all ways they usually do i WILL become feral.)

People can just like media without needing to over-analyze every detail. I know, it's different from what me and everyone else who's reading this post is used to, but it's something that happens. I get subjected to it every time i watch a show with my mum and I immediately get into deep analysis of the characters and their reasoning for doing things and my mum listens to my reasoning and likes the show but if I ask her a question about what she thinks about a character or smth she's there like "Idk I'm just following the show" WICH IS FINE!! IT DOESNT MEAN SHE ISN'T UNDERSTANDING THE OVERALL MESSAGE OR STORY OF THE SHOW!! SHE JUST DOESN'T JUMP AT THE IDEA OF GOING INTO OVER-ANALYZING EVERY SINGLE BREATH A CHARACTER MAKES THE WAY I DO!!! IT DOESN'T MEAN SHE'S STUPID!!!

So yeah. Although Lizzie would be different from my mum in the way that Lizzie would be able to point out her favorite or least favorite characters clearly - saying what she liked and disliked about them, and even enthusiastically comment on wich scenes she liked the most, wich means she and Ciel could actually have a two-way conversation that isn't like what me and my mum usually do (Me talking non-stop about themes and symbolism and what I think a scene could relate to irl while my mum happily but still silently listens - wich is also fine mind you, I just mean Ciel and Lizzie would go at it differently)

Also i know Ciel and Lizzie would probably prefer different kinds of literature but imo they would be able to find a middle ground. Ciel prefers darker stories, yes, but i believe he himself said he reads almost anything to keep up with what people like for his business, and either way he would compromise for Lizzie. He wouldn't MAKE her read something that could greatly upset her, just like she wouldn't MAKE him read something that is completely out of his interests, like a cheesy romantic novel that would bore him out of his mind five chapters in. They are pretty good at respecting eachother's boundaries most of the time, I feel.

So like...idk, Alice in Wonderland? Lizzie would like the vibes and overall fun colorful story. Ciel could maybe appreciate the non-sense theme in how everything works differently (as in he would sit there, compare it to things irl, and try to understand how the author got to the wilder ideas from there) and also compare it to how things work in the real world. (I haven't read Alice in Wonderland since I was really little - like late elementary or early middle school, so keep in mind I'm not an expert who could give a more exhaustive theory)

I have not read Sherlock Holmes ever (I tried once tho! And I do own some of the books!! I just never got around to reading more than a chapter or smth YEARS ago) so idk how Lizzie would find it, but it IS o!Ciel's favorite author and he loves these books very much so I feel like Lizzie would want to give them a shot. Ciel lets her because although it is a murder mystery, it's not a fully horror novel (be it flat out gore or psychological horror) - (...and also he is excited about talking about these books with someone he's close with, so he gladly takes a risk promising to himself he'll just stop her if she gets too upset about the deaths. You didn't hear it from me though).

People are way too hard on the younger kids, especially Mike.

I was making an edit and while looking for clips I came across the scene in S2 where Mike and Hopper fight about him having kept El a secret, and I unmuted it because I wanted to hear it again.

And honestly, I think it hit me harder the second time? Especially because the first time I saw it, I was so preoccupied with all the other story stuff that I didn’t notice it as much.

It hurts to see him stop struggling and go limp in Hopper’s arms, despite being incredibly furious, because he’s scared and he’s hurting and he’s so, so drained– most likely both emotionally and physically.

Mike is a kid. He’s 14. 12 in Season One, 13 in S2. The adults and older teens can barely keep themselves together, and the kids are not only expected to, they have to, and it could cost their or someone else’s life if they don’t.

That’s why I hate it so much when people talk about how horrible Mike is in Season 3 and 4, or how his character changed completely and was “bad writing”.

Yes, Mike was a shitty friend in Season 3 and a a good amount of Season 4, but Mike is still a kid. A kid with immense trauma and insecurities and self-hatred.

Humans already make mistakes. Kids make more. That’s growing up. You’re shitty to yourself, you’re shitty to your family, you’re shitty to your friends. Maybe not consistently, but it most definitely happens at some point or another. And Mike has literal monsters crawling from another dimension trying to kill him and all his loved ones to add to it, as well as being queer in the 80’s.

I’m not saying what he did or said was okay, because it wasn’t. I’m saying that he can make mistakes as long as learns and grows from them, which he does. I’m also saying his mistakes don’t define him. I’m saying he’s not badly written. He isn’t a horrible person. He isn’t a completely different character. He isn’t a one-dimensional asshole who is being mean for no reason.

He’s human. He’s learning. He’s a kid. He’s complex and multi-layered and incredibly interesting because of that. He’s well-written. He’s smart and logical. He’s sweet and protective.

Mike Wheeler antis need to think critically and go read some analyzations.

I feel like people don't talk about Jancer enough she's such a cutie

[cuntypatrick]

gotta say my favorite kind of artists are those who just effortlessly seem to capture so many unique body types in every drawing, it’s so heartwarming to watch hem melt in the comments when somebody comments that they look like that and that it’s hard to find art of their shape. makes my day so see the world a better place

[daisydood]

I'll ask!! [[Also Thrùd is super cool idk why people dont talk about her more!!]]

HCs for being best friends with Thrùd?? All she's really had to hang out with is her nasty brothers oh GODS.

Ramblings about God of War: Thrùd addition!

A/N: HEY ANON!! you're the first person in my asks ever, so ty!!! Sorry this isn't really what you wanted, but I'll to add some hcs if I come up with anything ❤️❤️

I'm pretty bad at writing HCs/fics and stuff, but I'll definitely do a character analysis and rant abt her!!

(Coming from Someone with a bias cuz my favorite character is Thrúd💀)

In my humble opinon, Thrud got done SO dirty in Ragnorak. She lost both of her siblings, then her father, then lost someone who she thought was good; Odin, THEN she lost the entire realm she's lived in her entire life (Asgard). Which like, fair enough, all of those deaths made sense because it was Ragnorak, and, it would mean that we get some character develpment from her, with all the grief...right? RIGHT-

Nope. Not even a little. After her two brothers died (AS ANON SAID, THE ONLY PEOPLE SHE COULD TALK TO HER AGE IM SCREAMING) all we got was an introduction scene to her character briefly mentioning Modi, then she said we are better off without him. Which, fair enough, if that's what she thinks.

BUT. All we got for Thrúd after her dad dies was a secret scene of her inheriting Thors sword. Which, IS SO COOL, but it wasn't even an obvious part of the game😭 She lost her dad, her dads dad, her entire home, and we got almost nothing from her about it. Same goes with Sif. She was literally just there. Her and Thor had this entire romantic dialogue about like "this isn't you 🥺" then he dies and and Sif- I think Sif had like 2 lines after that? Nothing even mentioning it, too.

Freya's loss of Freyr was treated much better then this. It wasn't really talked about, except for the final dialogue post Ragnorak, when you go up the mountain looking for Kratos. She said stuff like ohhh I'm gonna move on it's fine blah blah blah. That is so much better than anything that happened with Thrúd and Sifs loss.

How did I start ranting about Sif. What.

ANYWAYS (completely different topic on how she wants to be validated 💕)

I think that Thrúd just wants to be validated. She tries so hard to be a Valkyrie, and it's like people don't care. Her dad doesn't care, and her mom thinks it's too dangerous. Odin just sucks, and he probably doesn't care, same with Heimdall.

I think her and Atreus freeing Garm really broke her down. As soon as she realized what she and him had done, she panics. She gets really upset/angry and immediately tries to get out of Jotunheim. THEN HEIMDALL HARRASSED HER. She was completely in her head before Heimdall came and bullied the two, so the things he said obviously made her mad, man. She tried punching him. Knowing Heimdall, it failed pretty bad. She had to feel so belittled and stupid, everything she's work for being thrown away because of the one bad decision that was made.

anywayssssszs

Thrúd is so cool. She is sooo underrated man. She has so much potential for when/if another Ragnorak game comes out. Shes THE ONLY THORDSITTER CHILD LEFTT

note: hahfhfbdhdh once again anon I'm literally so sorry this isn't what you wanted😭 and oh my god my last post got twenty notes what☝🏻😧 okay okay okay what else do I need to say

OH YEAH sorry this take so long for me to post writing these takes foreverrrrrrrvrrvrv

OH YEAH hit up my asks if u want sum written & I'll probably talk about Freya next😱

What’s up with how the dunmeshi fandom just lies about this kind of stuff all the time. It is easily confirmable information that it was a monthly series, something incredibly common in the industry.

A not weekly magazine schedule is literally common !! Especially in the seinen shoujo and josei demographics, sometimes monthly, sometimes biweekly, sometimes every two months, sometimes seasonal! Please stop lying about how Dunmeshi was some special unique creation that defies all standards of manga just to hype it up because it is so clear that every single one of these comparisons is centered around Weekly Shonen Jump (and understand that SJ has many magazines under its brand that are monthly or semimonthly). Not everything is WSJ and it needs to stop being the only point of reference in conversations like this 🤧
