#assume the dad position

[mossymandibles]

does kraw ever refer to gen as his daughter/kid? Does he do that in front of her?

Kraw normally just has nicknames for her like ‘runt’ ‘peapod’ or ‘guppy’ which were similar names used for him by Mayv. It’s more of an unspoken thing and he’ll just casually say ‘she’s with me’ and such.

Gen is very distrusting of any sort of authority, so anytime Kraw would openly say that she was his kid she kind of took offense to it, feeling like she was under his authority instead of seeing that he simply cares for her because of how her early life was. She’d rather think of Kraw as her ‘big dragon friend’. Couldn’t tell ya the exact moments but there were just a lot of little instances where Kraw would just assume the ‘dad’ role and they both went with it, usually being when Gen was in trouble or danger.

As Gen grows up ofc Kraw eventually graduates to becoming ‘the Ol’ Man’

The first time Kraw calls Gen his daughter she used it against him since she wasn’t exactly comfortable with it at the time.

I think the neat thing about minimal world building surrounding Jin Guangyao's watch towers is that it puts us in the perspective of the common people. Like, we know they were effective, we know what his reputation was before the reveal, and we know his reputation after the reveal, and that's it. We don't know if they were built out of altruism or if he was trying to become the next Wen Rouhan and we never will know because we'll never be inside his head and he wasn't sect leader long enough for us to see any kind of long term plan working (assuming there even were any long term plans and "long term" means "takes longer than 10 years" in this case). The only thing we really know is that we'll never have a solid answer, and all we can really do about it is speculate and gossip

So I thought I just had a cold I'd caught from my dad but I haven't been able to smell or taste very well for like three days so I took a covid test and uh

shit

it kind of goes without saying but between Fionna obviously being characterized as in her 30s even if she's a little childish about it, the romantic subtext inherent to her first glimpse of Simon as Ice Prince and the lack of any kind of parental vibes between them at ALL, I really flinch a lot whenever I see people referring to Fionna as one of Simon's kids in a EEK kind of way

she doesn't seem written to have THAT kind of family dynamic with him; she's a grown woman who has no need for role models, if this was an actual bar meeting she would have accidentally wound up with him in the back of their car as the two of them desperately tried to figure out what the heck happened

kinda drives me up a wall when people go "hey i think x action in a war/combat scenario is inhumane and cruel and shitty" and someone responds with "oh but within the laws of war it's allowed or there's procedure for it etc etc". it doesn't have to be a war crime to be unforgivable man it's a shitty rulebook anyway

either we're getting a happy ending on btsv or both miles and miguel will have a point proven

[hauntedtotem]

I think the biggest red flag for me regarding the hopelesspeaches and lio convoy stuff, their entire group (especially lio) has near identical speech patterns and dynamics as my mom's online friend group. Which is less of a red flag and more of a raging wildfire tbh

parents are fascinating you will have not worn a dress since high school prom and they will be like but you should shave your legs! what if you want to wear a dress!

being crushed by the overwhelming sense that i am annoying and complain too much and just overall miserable to be around

i have covid (probably) and i absolutely do not have the energy or the clarity of thought to shut down these feelings so theyre just kinda running rampant while i lay here and fantasize about dying of my ailments 👍

[luimagines]

Oooh what inspired you to do wars as winds dad xo

Well! The request included Warrior as one of the parents, so that helps. XD

I'm also a huge fan of Older Brother! Warrior in literally everything. But just tweak it a little bit. (I think that Warrior would have been projecting from Young Link from the war- even if Wind was there too- but Time is a grown man now. So Wind gets the brunt of it- two fold- hence Dad tm.)

ok well. i rewatched raimon vs teikoku. i will not say anything since i consider the entirety of it to suck immensely. however like... i feel bad for shimerigawa :/

little dude did not deserve to be treated like this. i dont really like how he was just used by kageyama to disrupt the team and told hes useless and dropped from the team and no one cares to argue w this decision. hes literally just a kid. younger than everyone else on the team. they should take him under their wing after what kageyama did to him. my god i do not like how theyre trying to act like kageyama is being a good coach now he still has no regard for other people. well whatever. shimerigawas my baby now

I’ve been having so many feelings lately but the one I’m feeling right now is grief over never having the dad I wanted much less one I deserved.

the girls who grew up with good dads have it so lucky. I always thought I’d somehow escaped having “daddy issues” and that, well, I never had my father in the home so there was never a “void” left in my life. I thought my general disdain for men was just a healthy skepticism that everyone had. I was so wrong

we did a draft for bb for the first time in my house & the way my draft team is def the worst now 😭 my dad didn’t even pick his team he just got whoever my mom & i didn’t want & his team is better than mine……bleak 😔

[cats-in-the-clouds]

my sister got engaged and we’re all really happy for her but my bitter rain cloud of a dad (who naturally she told last) is giving her a bit of passive aggressive grief about it despite her boyfriend being like the best man of our generation (presumably either because he’s not catholic or because my dad sees them as young dumb unemployed people who aren’t ready for marriage or because he’s mad he barely has any real love with his own wife or something). so like pray for us? i wish i knew what to do
