Alright, I keep seeing posts about Izzy fans not understanding media literacy, so let's actually talk about that, shall we?

I've seen people describe Izzy as THE main antagonist of the show. He's not. He's a secondary antagonist. The primary antagonist of season one is Badmitton. Izzy is the romantic rival. A secondary antagonist that is a roadblock in the road for the protagonists rather than being an ACTUAL threat.

Izzy literally fulfills the same role in season one as Zuko from Avatar the Last Airbender. He's a small time antagonist to cause trouble without being the actual main threat. And by season two, he's not an antagonist AT ALL!

I've never seen anyone complain about people liking Zuko after his redemption arc. Or even Iroh - an adult who was the heir to an evil empire who killed people as an adult before he was redeemed.

But for some reason, Izzy's redemption arc is mocked and people who point out that he's always shown the capacity for goodness and change are ridiculed or called stupid. The foundation for Izzy's character arc has always been there, just like the foundation for Zuko's character arc was set up even as he was doing despicable things. If a children's show can take characters and show their nuances, why are people getting mad that this show does the same?

Genuinely baffling to me

Whisper, if you had to wear anyone else's typical outfits for a week, whose do you think you'd pick?

"Mine, of course." Tangle scoffed. When the expected 'mhm' didn't follow from the wolf, she looked over to find Whisper frowning thoughtfully. Her change to an expression of betrayal was instant! "N-No way... Not mine?!

"Too tight," Whisper confessed. "And your other outfits are... Um... Don't fit me." The wolf thought of half a dozen flea market shirts that said things like "HOCKEY" and "BADMITTON" and "CHEESECAKE", failing to concoct the image in her head of her wearing any of them. That was out of the realm of possibility.

"So... Something like Lanolin's, then? All those pockets?" Tangle pouted.

"Closer." Whisper pondered... And then shrugged her shoulders, "Actually... I wouldn't mind Surge's."

Tangle said nothing.

"It's simple but deceptive. Easy to move in. Deep pockets."

Tangle said nothing.

"The hair tie would be nice too. Keeps it out of my face. Might try a different style though." Silence continued. Whisper frowned, "...Tangle? Are you okay?"

"Huh? What? O-Oh. I was lost in thought." Tangle paused, and as if that pause were an implicit admission of guilt hastily appended, "No, not of you dressed up like a hot punk rocker chick. Gosh."

"I didn't... Nevermind." Whisper shook her head. No one could ever accuse her sweet lemur of being a smooth customer, but that just made things a bit easier sometimes.

Thinking about how Stede probably doesn't consider Ned's death as his first kill.

At the end of the day, both the Badmittons in s1 were accidents. But stede, my love, felt himself at fault for them, didn't he?

Did he think that he already knew what that was going to feel like, to take a life? That he's already used to the burden. Ready for it.

And when it wasn't?

one time in gym class no one wanted to be on my badmitton team and we had an odd number of kids so i was my own team and i somehow made it to the semi finals on my own so i won a waterbottle and then thr next gym class i dislocated my knee trying to kick the ball in kickball and i feel like that really encompasses my athletic ability somehow

Mukuroji (Sapindus mukorossi) Height 15.5 m　Circumference 4.58m

It is found in the mountains west of Central Japan. It is often seen in Mt. Kasaguyama. Since its seedcase has a lot of saponin composition, it used to use as soap. Its seed was used as a ball for battledore and shuttlecock, and Buddhist rosary.

If other fandoms would like to know how the #GoodOmens fandom is coping today, just imagine:

1) #OFMD: Ed & Stede duel, then leave on different ships, & we get an entire episode about Izzy & a Badmitton getting together.

2) #Sherlock: John goes back to Afganistan while Molly....marries Greg, & they send Mycroft a piece of the cake.

3) #StarTrek: Kirk is promoted to Admiral, Spock gets the Enterprise, & the ship is lost in the Delta quadrant. In a fit of grief, Kirk resigns & joins the Marquis.

Anyone have any other comparisons?

I find it funny how near the end of Revolutionary Girl Utena when the old Student Council were playing badmitton, they managed to make me ship Utena and Nanami at least until Utena and Anthy made up lol.

Sports? I want to learn forms of martial arts that I'm allowed to do. I also want to continue 'dance.' I also like fencing, tennis, badmitton, golf, and archery. Equestrian? I don't know how to care or ride a horse. I also like boxing and kickboxing. I hope I have boxing bags.

weapon of choice: daggers. need to learn how to throw them.

but I've never carried a weapon and refrain from ever holding one.
