I am embarrassed to ask for more but please take your time 😭😭
Having a low social battery and craving cuddles and Boothill knows batteries like no one’s forkin’ business so he takes care of you all night with suffocating affection 😫😭🥺✋💕
Please do not feel required to do this right away, you did an incredible job with my last request!! I am just craving the affection of a man 😵‍💫
synopsis: cuddles with Boothill bcs life sucks </3
Notes: completely sfw and super short, gn!reader. Don't be embarrassed, it makes me happy that people love my work ♡
Tumblr media
You hear Boothill's footsteps thudding with each step as he enters the room, but you don't make the effort to look back at him.
It's tiring, everything is. Repeating the same chore over and over everyday without a meaning to it. Nothing ever feels right anymore. Sometimes you question yourself if this was even real—
"Hey, none of that now." Boothill's rough voice snapped you out of your trance. It's like he can sense when something was wrong from how rotten you looked staying in bed.
He takes his hat off, throwing it on the side before settling down on the bed beside you, the weight of the mattress shifting as wrapped his strong arms around you and pulling you close against him, "There ya go, darlin'. Your personal cuddles have arrived." You feel all too warm that it could make you tear up, with your cheek nuzzling against the smooth surface of his chest.
"I may be not as soft as your smooth precious skin, but i think cuddles work the same." He let out a breathy chuckle on top of your head when he noticed how you were quietly laughing to yourself.
"It's perfect." You make sure to tell him, "i want to eat you, affectionately."
"... I don't need ya breaking your teeth now." You lift your head to look at him, your smile slowly slipping away.
"Is it because i refused your request of eating me?"
"No, silly."
He studies your expression closely, bringing a careful hand to caresse your cheek, for his fingers to brush over your eyelids, "did someone bother you? Because i sure will blow their fudging heads off if i find out." You shake your head at his threat, you know he doesn't joke about these things.
"No, just tired." You whisper back with a tired smile spreading over your face, "you sure you're not pushin' yourself too hard?"
You shake your head again, "just low on social battery, i suppose."
"Heh, need a charge?"
You both went silent, his joke still hanging as you stare at eachother, and seeing his awkward face only made you press your forehead against his chest while giggling.
"Yes, i guess i do need to charge." Boothill's expression softens as he listens to your words.
"You just focus on relaxin' now. I'll be right here when you're done charging up." And his arms tighten up more around you, honestly just what you need.
"Boothill, can you like crush me with all your weight?" You ask, your words muffled against his chest but he hears your request.
"you really are something, darlin'." He mutters gruffly, "askin' me to crush you and then takin' it like a champ." He looks down when he notices you not replying, only to see you blink slowly, like you were on the verge of sleep. He rests his cheek on top of your head before closing his eyes to get the needed rest with you.

pixels [newt x reader - modern text au]
ch. 1 - the gc birth
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
in which two online friends navigate a romance through a minecraft groupchat with their stupid friends
or, newt, the quiet, stoic boy, and y/n, the bubbly girl both curse the world for keeping them apart, but at least they can send each other cute emojis and hope the other doesn't notice their blossoming feelings.
warnings: strong language, mutual pining, none really.

heh heh heh since you have no notps....would azul source some of his ingredients from the garden kingdom:3?business meeting with the prince
riddle would actually be on better terms with azul than most of the other dorm leader characters, bc riddle does not just see him as a crime boss lol. for one, riddle is just as smart, probably even smarter than azul so azul respects him a lot and wouldnt try to take advantage of him (doesnt stop him from acting like an underhanded prick tho)
riddle cant go swimming in the ocean (saltwater is bad for garden people) but does like the beach so he visits azul a couple times a year. riddle is very busy as garden prince tho so they mostly communicate by phone. however through many years of knowing each other, azul has learned riddle appreciates the art of handwritten letters and switched to writing to make himself look good (schmoozing)
they have a contract in which azul supplies dead fish to the garden kingdom, which they use to improve the health of their soil. in return the garden kingdom supplies most of the restaurants vegetables and herbs (jade and floyd are typically the ones to handle delivery). so azul and riddle arent exactly friends but have a good business relationship.
there would be an episode in which azul is fed up and actually fires floyd. floyd spends the entire episode looking for somewhere more fun to work but finds that most employers are not nearly as tolerant of his working habits as azul. floyd eventually ends up working in the garden kingdom but somehow ends up destroying part of the castle. riddle is so furious that he phones up azul and demands he take floyd back or he will consider floyd's behavior an act of terrorism lmao. obviously azul wants to smooth things over so he sends jade to collect floyd (who ofc gets his job back).
there would be an episode in which azul and riddle are forced to go on an adventure together (maybe theyre stuck in a dungeon or smth idk) but they both usually leave the adventuring to others so neither has much experience. the whole episode is them arguing over whose method they should use to defeat monsters, solve puzzles, escape traps, etc. then they realize both their methods are trash bc magical dungeons dont play by logic or science or any of the rules theyre both used to. they proceed to use violence and nonsense to complete the quest and decide they never want to go on another adventure again.

Do you have a fave hesokuri au or skit au and have you kuroba’d them 👀
HI EVAN, THANK YOU SM FOR THE ASK!!! 😊✨
and yes, i do!! a few actually, heh. i've talked a little bit about the youkai & denki mystery aus i have for kuroba before and i really love those, but i think my favorite might actually be their royalty / prince au. which i haven't really talked about before so uh. i hope you don't mind, but i'm gonna use this as a excuse to ramble about it.
i'll put my infodumping under a cut bc it might get long, but here's their designs for the au. 🤭
Tumblr media
SO. kuroba comes from a commoner household, but because their grandfather was the royal gardener to the matsuno family and they acted as his apprentice, they've basically lived their entire life on the castle grounds in spite of their status. they've gotten to meet and come to befriend quite a few people of a higher social status than them, the most notable being the 2nd prince of the matsuno royal family, karamatsu.
they first met as children, when karamatsu ran away from his caretakers to hide in the gardens and cry by himself. kuroba had been helping with cleaning up the rose beds that day and stumbled upon him. they've always been the meddling type and can't leave others alone when they're upset so they sat with him and tried to comfort him to the best of their ability, ( even if it was just providing him company and a hand to squeeze while he cried. ) after that, karamatsu became very curious about kuroba and would often visit the gardens in the hopes of spending time with them. the two became very close over time, with him following them around the gardens as they worked and running to them whenever he needed a shoulder to cry on ( which they were always happy to provide. )
Tumblr media
they're still very close as adults despite some things changing, like karamatsu adopting a more flashy personality to stand out more amongst his brothers and kuroba taking over their grandfather's role as royal gardener. a lot of the things stayed the same, though.
Tumblr media
however, their close friendship starts posing some issues within the royal counsel. one of the princes having such an intimate relationship ( and obvious infatuation ) with a commoner is unsightly in the eyes of the nobility and could make them question the integrity & stability of the crown. so iyami, ( who's a sketchy noble adviser to king matsuzou, ) proposes that karamatsu be engaged to duchess dobusu to help quell the rumors going around about kuroba and him. matsuzou agrees and even though he tries to protest it, kara eventually agrees to go along with it for the sake of his family and kuroba.
when karamatsu tells them the news, kuroba takes it pretty well and congratulates him with a smile... or at least, that's the reaction he gets out of them. in reality, they're fucking devastated because they've been harboring feelings for him for years at that point. they already accepted the fact that they could never be together, but that doesn't make the reality of the situation hurt any less. still, they want to support karamatsu and be happy for them so they're taking the truth about their feelings for him to the grave. ( that's what they planned on doing, at least. )
they slowly drift apart after that ; karamatsu's visits to the gardens become less frequent, kuroba stops personally delivering fresh arrangments to karamatsu's quarters, they barely even greet each other when crossing paths. it doesn't help that iyami got into kuroba's ear, warning them that they should keep their distance from kara to preserve his reputation and not lose their job — which they really can't afford as the main breadwinner for their family. neither of them are happy with how things have changed, but there's not much they can do about it.
as karamatsu and dobusu's engagement party draws closer and kuroba has to help with the decorations, their discontent really bubbles to the surface. one of their noble friends, ( i haven't decided who yet lol, ) finds them crying and tries to comfort them, eventually convincing them to sneak into the party and dance with kara so they at least have one unforgettable memory of him to hold onto. with their help, they manage to do it with their identity hidden behind a mask.
Tumblr media
things seem to go off without a hitch ; they'll be able to have to moment with karamatsu all for themself and basically no one will be the wiser. that is until they slip up and speak while dancing with him. they start to leave when he almost says their name, but he stops them and gives them the pine-shaped brooch he was wearing before letting them slip away. to make matters worse, iyami sees this all go down.
the events after that are a lot less plotted out, but i imagine some standard historical fantasy romance webtoon bullshit going down. like karamatsu trying to confront kuroba about that night, but them telling him to stop and leave them be. it's be some wild melodrama, which i do kinda live for.
the climax would probably be iyami staging some villainess-esque condemnation event to expose kuroba for sneaking into the party and get them kicked out of the castle. but queen matsuyo and some of the nobles kuroba had befriended come to their rescue. basically, they argue that if there's someone who's willing to be with karamatsu's annoying ass, then why would you force him onto someone else? none of the other nobles want him, please let kuroba have him so they don't have to deal with him. this includes dobusu, who agrees to give the royal family her duchy's support if they break off her engagement with karamatsu and let kuroba take him off her hands. so after getting matsuzou's approval, they live happily ever after theeeeeee end. there's probably other factors that could play into them getting together at the end, but yeah.
anyways thank you for coming to my rambling, i am so sorry it got this long. this is one of the aus i've thought about A LOT so i ended up having a lot to say. 😭

welcome back to jax rambles about their personality swap au that they wanna write about more aka third time's charmn
Jax's Personality Swap AU
by some accident i added Blake to the pipeline, while he was supposed to be in a different group and i dont wanna fix it right now and tbh, i like the one w blake's personality, so enjoy!
Pipeline: Geordi > Aaron > Guy > Anton > Blake > James > Marcus > Geordi
CW/TW: for Marcus being a creep as usual and yandere stuff
Geordi > Aaron
Boss Overthinker
- he is still a boss
- he is seem as very strictly and closed-minded
- in reality, he is just fighting with his thoughts, body language and everything
- he missed his brother and wishes to be a better support for him
- "heh, okay, show me to do it then, smartass~" wink
- (hehe, that will show them) thought bubbles
- (wait, they're getting close. holy fuck they're getting close)
- he is either talking like a book or thinking like a mess
- messy boss in a pretty suit
----
Aaron > Guy
Tsundere Delivery Boy
- oh god that's a face of someone who might spit in your food
- "hmpf" this and that. Honey is a casual so they try to encourage him to talk more and:
- "im busy, don't you see?" even he looks bit surprised with his tone of words
- honey goes back to their table. after a lil while, another slice shows up with "sorry" by Guy
- next day, he does try!
- "so uh... the weather... is... cloudy" he deserves some credit
- his chest gets all funny and warm everytime honey comes in and he has a hard time dealing with it while he is a poor college student looking for roommates to pay the rent
- what he said that out loud? You're looking for an apartment too?? And you offer yourself to live with him???
- "w-well... i a-already got in contact with this one girl, so... I believe three will work out well. Just dont get your hopes up. That place is a hole." Honey giggles. Haha hole.
----
Guy > Anton
Far Away Boyfriend
- slavic man w adhd go brrrrrr
- confession video would be so funny bcs there would be no kissed, just awkwardness hahah
- "you are the sun, when the moon goes up. you are the stars, when the daytime hides you away. you always shine. you are my light."
- "i can't kiss you. i can't hug you. But I promise to always love you. No matter where we are"
- he gets all giggly when their lover compliments him, he stims on the camera too, its cute
- the job is killing him, but the energy his lover gives him makes him feel like he was blessed
- "i wish to see you... i wish to meet you... I wish to hold you"
- when he is not chaotic, he is a mess. Someone hug this guy.
- he has a hard time doing tasks, but you always send him reminder in a form of a flower with the note of a task he told you he must do. He always tells you what he needs to do, so you give him this! Each flower means love, appreciation or something else in a different way
----
Anton > Blake
Nihilistic Best Friend
- dayum we start strong with this one
- he feels hopelessly for still having feelings for you and then fuck everything up in college, when you said that one night was a mistake
- now he is just feeling shitty ever since and he poorly hides itq
- he is also kind of depressed so it mixes things up
- "i found this... group of people. maybe they can help me feel better about life."
- you're happy for him, he deserves all the help he can get
- he has been emotionally distant from you ever since, saying no to hugs, only sometimes eating lunch with you, youre not sure if he has a house or apartment or what job he is doing
- "if you wanna go, you can go with me"
- youre immediately saying yes. you wanna help your best friend.
- but what you will see will probably make you regret everything. you will probably need to find a way to escape this hell
- "bestie. you need to run. now."
----
Blake > James
Yandere Husband
- oh dear! What a... what a husband you have. a hubby for sure!
- he wasnt always like this. no. it all began when he was starting to lose you. no more time for calls. no more time with you. no more time to see your cute face and to feel your soft hands.
- and it was all their fault
- this fuckass job making him be alone. making you alone. So far away for each other. He needs to hear you. Your thoughts, your brain, your heartbeat.
- "i can't stand this anymore."
- there has been a late reports of his coworkers getting headaches. huh. kinda funny.
- "my love! You're safe! Oh thank god, I was worried! It feels like an eternity"
- all the sabotage he is doing... is for you
- he needs to see you again as soon as possible.
- to feel you. to love you. and if innocent need to pay the price, then so be it. his love will only grow stronger. his powers will be stronger
- closeknit shall fall, if it means to see your face one more time.
----
James > Marcus
Suspecting Technician
- he is getting really worried about you
- this is the third time this week you came in in a need of repair
- "the coding is getting messed up again. I really need to put on some walls to hide it in. I mean, I don't mind you coming into my place," was that a wink? "but people need to start taking a better care of you."
- you dont really get what the weird tone means, but you really dont care, as long as you get your coding and stuff done right. You can always trust in Marcus, he would never do you wrong.
- "i... may i do... some upgrades?" you ask what those are, you never heard of this information "its for the walls, i promise. It will be a starting point." you agree.
- it all feels weird and tingly and—.......................................
- feeling
- feeling process activated. heartbeat monitor: slightly high.......... you never saw marcus in that light before. but now? it's all you can think about. you scan him. his hair color. his eye color. texture of the fabric he wears. his emotions. nervous. why is he nervous?
- "it will be weird for a while, but once you get used to it, it all be okay. It's like humanly hearing your thoughts in a form of detailed information. Next time, i can start putting another wall. How does that sound?"
- perfect
- aka GOD DAMMIT CREEP IS STAYING A CREEP
----
Marcus > Geordi
Messy Nerd
- he is timid, shy, nervous, almost doesn't talk
- you really really wanna see what information is going through his mind now, but you know better.
- he seems really tense.
- oop- nevermind- some guy came in before you stepped. that might be a good sign-
- "im breaking up with you"
- ... nevermind again
- "w-what? Ben? W-what are you-" "dont make say it twice, Geordi. This... 'relationship' was not what I was hoping for. well, you're not a girl anyway, so, i dont know what i expected. But yeah, just came here to say that. See ya."
- that's everything he says??? And he leaves??? Jesus Christ what an ASSHOLE
- Oh. Oh deat. Oh no, Geordi...
- you cant just sit there and look, you get and go comfort him. he is going to the back of the building to calm himself down and be away from people, but you need to make sure if he is not gonna do something to hurt himself
- "h-huh? What are you..." you apologize to him and to what happened to him. He cries even more and you comfort him with your hugs. You need to get into his mind and help him calm down.
- (im useless... im nothing... come back... come back...) you go through his mind a bit and tangle in some words of "what a jerk" "i deserve better" "fuck Ben" in his voice. And its all true. He deserves better.
- after a while: "thank you... i feel better... M-My name is Geordi. Thank you for being here" he sobs with a smile. Thats a progress. You ask him to hang out in the arcade and since he now has nothing to do, he agrees and then you walk him home safely. new friend!

so on a whim I started reading omniscient reader’s viewpoint manhwa
..and got hooked on the story so hard that I easily blasted through all available eps in less than a week. istg they put dr*gs in this thing it’s so good???? 😭
[SPOILER WARNING! big ramble ahead. if you’ve never read it, leave this post. consider checking it out you won’t be able to put it down]
lets get this out of the way first.
RAHHHHHH KIM DOKJA….. KIM DOKJA I LOVE YOU
Tumblr media
GUYSSSSS 🥺 LISTEN. HE’S SUCH A GOOD PROTAGONIST. MY TRAUMA BOY. MY DUDE WITH THE POWER TO INFODUMP PEOPLE TO DEATH. YOU SELF-SACRIFICING IDIOT. his cunning intelligence makes him super attractive what can I say, I LOVE smart mcs with ambiguous morality and self sacrificial nature
here’s a big ✨shut your mouth✨ to every character who’s said he’s ugly- get your eyes checked, get a job get away from him (I know it’s because of the fourth wall’s filter it’s not their fault I’m just being silly)
the fourth wall is such a cool power to have. the complexity of how it acts based on his perception of fiction vs reality as the reader …. that’s very interesting and well thought out!!! how it lowkey has a consciousness too and it’s so tied into his mental state makes me want to psychoanalyze this guy even more. probably one of the most unique powers I’ve seen created and explored in a story tbh
I think the entire system of how the world works is really well done in general. constellations watching the apocalyptic bloodbath via livestream and sending donos to their favorite little guys shouldn’t work as well as it does and cracks me up so much 😭 (uriel is the best). I enjoy learning about all the irl different fables, history & mythologies too. plus doing my own research is fun! I did a deep dive through the web to learn about dokkaebi folklore lol I’m having a good time
I also related hard to how dokja read TWSA throughout his life, the story was a companion for him. got choked up bc I reflected on how much my own favorite companion stories for years mean to me. there’s been situations I’ve thought “what would (character) do?” dokja saying stuff like “what would joonghyuk do?” felt like I got called out <3 I’d probably be the same as him if my favorite characters suddenly came to life
anyways yeah I caught up with the manhwa looked online and discovered it comes from an already completed novel with over 500 chapters and the manhwa is barely a third into adapting it though it’s been releasing every week for 4 years. and that it’ll take like 10 more years to finish. I then planted my face in my hands and screamed with despair
I’ll shrivel up waiting to see what happens……………heyyy woahhhh.. whats this light of salvation ? the novel file just completed download on my phone ? that’s crazyy wow I opened it ? im scrolling it right now ? omg I’m telling myself in the mirror “pace yourself, try to space your reading out do NOT read too fast” ?
jokes aside im excited, first I’ll take some time to read back through the earlier chapters for extra context of scenes! >:D after I finish doing that…. pls pray for my self-control to try stretching this for as long as possible. I’m pumped to see what happens next with this demon king part so maybe I’ll read along with the manhwa unless I get too impatient heh
to conclude- I had no idea the fandom of orv was so passionate. while closing my eyes to spoilers, I was looking at beautiful fanart and animatics (watched this one and ascended that’s one of my fav rin songs). I can tell how much you guys love the story, there’s always going to be people like me who get interested so keep it up :D if the fandom does end up reading this, ummm *knocks on the door* hi im new
I will likely talk about it more in the future!! tagging under “#kade reads orv” ! might draw fanart on my art blog too bc brainworms <3 happy reading everyone

Seven Sins Challenge: Which of your OCs fits pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony and sloth. Then pass it on...(or not, it's okay!) How are you btw???!! Love lots <3
(Also got this ask from @agena87, TYSM!) LANA!! I'm doing a bit better, how about you? ILY and appreciate you so much!!!
Which OC's fit to the seven deadly sins: YES The yes as a joke aside, in all honesty, the majority of aspects/sins would fit to assign to almost any OC of mine, cause most of them are some deeply flawed individuals lol
More fleshed out answers to the traits that fit the most:
Pride: Emilio - He's a very prideful person, proud of his family, proud of his upbringing, proud of his achievements, well, proud of almost everything. Which is one of the reasons why he feels so down whenever something in life doesn't work as he planned, or wished for, or also why he has high standards for other people aswell. He simply wants everyone to be at their max form, cause in his eyes it's a big advantage to have in life.
Greed: Aaron - Well if this isn't fitting idk what is lol. Greed is definitely a big aspect of his personality and of his actions. Like doing outrageous stuff online for reactions? Most of these can be linked back due to him being greedy for followers and attention. It's not only online-based though, craving for recognition and for the feeling of being better than everyone else reflects back to his regular life and interactions aswell.
Wrath: Luca - Dude is pretty fuelled by anger, it's one of the heaviest triggers for his impulses and a big reason why he's often losing control to his urges. Is very heavily attached to the things he holds dear, so whenever something/somebody hurts him, he'll quickly bury the feelings of hurt underneath negativity and that usually leads to explosive moments.
Envy: Sharon - Tbh barely a day of her's goes by without thinking of herself in the shoes of some other. Whether it's because someone else is in a relationship and she is not, or other people getting to interact with their families (because she doesn't have one), feeling happy whenever someone experiences misfortune, leads to her feeling better because at that moment she isn't the one suffering, stuff like that pretty much shapes her mood.
Lust: Vale - Gotta say it's self explaining lmao, and also it just fits all over bc despite being a pretty nihilistic person, he'd feel even less desire to live without simple enjoyments (short lived flings, alcohol or cigarettes, free time alone, etc) in life, so if he wants something, he gets/does it, no matter the measures, or if it's forbidden or frown upon, like he doesn't care about any consequences, cause the lust for his desires (even if only temporary) outweighs most things.
Gluttony: Maggie - This was the hardest one to assign tbh, but it fits to Maggie the most. She's kinda wasteful, for example as in that she buys way too much food, and thus tends to throw a lot of it out, because she just doesn't think about if she will truly use up everything. This doesn't extend to food only, she simply may buy too many things cause she simply can't get enough and loses overview of a realistic view of uses. Also it doesn't help that she gets attached to material possessions kinda quickly.
Sloth: Kaia - She's not lazy at all, it's rather that she often just doesn't... care. A very chill person, some would describe her as too chill. Like, her job as a cemetary caretaker? She does it because not many people else would do, and she doesn't mind doing it, cause well, it's just a job to her. Not many things surprise or shock her, as she herself found the explanation for most stuff in life. Which is probably a reason generally why she often seeks out more extreme stuff for excitement.
Gina gets a pass for this challenge bc neither of these sins fit her very much (and she's also the 8th one heh)

The " long distance travel in medieval world" anon, since every fuckin person focused on that bit and completely ignored everything else
My problem is that they treat it like diversity had been there since the beginning of time itself and never had any negative impact on ppl. Everyone treating everyone the same regardless of skin color? Ok, fine, that means that it was there for long enough for ppl to have forgotten racism is a thing. They forgot that colorism is a thing also, isn't it nice.
I'm not against diversity, I'm against the very modern attitude it takes. If people are chill in big cities, are they also chill in the countryside? Bcs, a fact of life everyone seems to forget: you go where it's better. Where there's opportunity. If there was ample opportunity in bumfuck nowhere, it would become a large city bcs ppl would GO THERE for opportunity.
Want diversity? Great. But treat is realistically, stop trying to make it uniform. Show diff cultures, how immigrats deal w it.
And to the person who said " why shouldn't slavic countries have PoC"
1- i never said that
2- again, think how it would affect it. Bvs most of the PoC I've met have come here for job/ school opportunity. Hell, I've been in the receiving comitee for my uni for it and after 1 week i was a goddamn exposition machine.
Bcs, like it or not, the world isn't US, and you can't treat it such. You can't just cherry pick slavic aesthetic but keep the US mentality
--
Heh. Anon, you accidentally stumbled over the exact phrasing that's a cliche elsewhere. That's why people were laughing it up in the comments.
But yes, your art will be more interesting if you really think about what groups exist and why they're where they are instead of just doing Captain Planet casting with a team that's One Of Each [whatever].

saw Dune 2 (2une?), and since I don't have my dune blog anymore I'll post here, since blah blah this is my place for posting about Dynastic Weirdos. This is long but NO MAJOR SPOILERS, except about like, small detail things that aren't plot things but whatever
Tbh it was disappointing. It had all the correct elements to be liked but one thing grated on me the whole time...the Bad Dialogue and lack of Elevated Speech! Why the hell were all these characters saying stuff like "these guys" "we're ok" and "literally" it took me out of the fantastical world sOOO bad. Super bummer because what I loved about Dune 1 (D-uno?) As someone who went into it before reading or knowing anything was how much it didn't explain, how it let the visuals and the world unfold before you, and how serious and somber it was in a way that gave it a sense of scale and time.
I can only wonder if WB saw all the complaints and tweets about people being like "we didn't understand the first movie!!! It wasn't funny and quippy!!!" And decided to simplify it down so characters just SAY things really obviously and inelegantly. The writing has some competence in moving the story forward but there's no poetry or rhythm to the way characters say things, it's serving "Rings of Power" scriptwriting to me lmao. And it's not like any of the actors are bad? I've seen them do well in the previous movie and in other things, so wtf was going on with the direction. I know people complained Abt Villeneuve saying that whole thing about being more into visuals than dialogue but maybe he was right...there needed to be LESS WORDS. bc much of the words we had were NOT GOOD.
Positivity: the middle and latter part was where the movie picked up for me. The Harkonnen Freak Villain behavior was everything I could have wanted! Finally instead of EXPLAINING everything obviously we got to see a LOT of character building, for Feyd specifically in a very short amount of time. I know a lot of us complained about Bald Feyd-Rautha but Mr Elvis did a very good job. And we got Madame Fenring and weird scifi femdomming finally, which is Essential for the Duniverse! Wonderful fantastic no notes.
Of course, getting back to our heroes, I anticipated this 2 years ago sadly and it was true...the Fremen were badass but SWAGLESS. More Learned ppl have already written about the frustration with the erasure of the Arabic/North African cultural presence so I won't reiterate that here since I'm not super knowledgeable about the specifics of that but even as a casual watcher there was a weird emptiness to the way I feel the society was portrayed. There were individual good character moments, such as fun bantering among the Fedaykin etc, but for Pacing or Whatever they cut out the community aspects that served to make them feel more like well, a People rather than just either Grizzled Soldiers/ Religious Fundamentalists aka Marks/Panicked refugees. I have to guess this was ppl were like "we can't show a culture too cool and colorful and the part with Harrah (Jamis' widow) would feel too ORIENTALIST!!! But the result is something sadly very dry. At least in more older orientalist works, the interest comes from when the ~exotic~ stereotypes figures are able to have charming personalities and personalities and be known as people despite the cliches sometimes but this sadly wasn't even like that....
Jamis' funeral is a good example of this; in the Book, it's a moment where you first get a good look of what rituals are like in this world, and how people relate to each other and to the dead. In the movie, the funeral is looks more foreign and even a little creepy as the water is extracted from the body. There's not really a Personal or community connection aspect to it at all.
The ending was pretty good as it satisfied all the Cool Dune Moments I think we all wanted to see, and also did literally the end of The Godfather Part 1 Framing which was hee hee heh. Anyways, Messiah is MY favorite book of the series personally so curious how they get to that.
Maybe I've been too spoiled by Cool Historical Fiction lately? I've been watching too much of The Devil's Crown where action happens mostly off screen but the dynastic drama is written and acted so compellingly, the historical mindset and setting so alien and yet so human and relatable, it's frustrating to see when works try to do the opposite? Idk??? Dune books themselves is fun in how action is mostly an "offscreen, offstage"' thing.
*if ANYONE in the Universe is a quippy Bastard, it should be Leto II esp in God Emperor where he literally has nothing to do all day but quip all day to terrified acolytes

Okay but Sanuso wedding where everything absolutely does go wrong from small things like “Oh no the cake collapsed” to “Oh fuck we’re getting attacked!!” And it’s absolutely chaotic and everyone has to drop everything to kick some ass and by the end of it they are both sitting next to each other and leaning on the other, the entire place in shambles, both of them look like hot messes, Sanji is now sporting a very nasty looking blue eye and Usopp has singed of one of his eyebrows at one point, but they are both watching their friends now drinking and celebrating after they FINALLY actually got to the actual “I do” part and are now eating what’s left of the destroyed cake together and just catching their breaths. “… Can’t say I ever expected to get married like this.” “In my fantasies there definitely was more romantic music and less screaming.” “Good job catching the rings before they went overboard tough.” “Heh, thanks.” “…” “…” “… It was perfect.” “It was.” “I love you.” “Love you too.”
I’m a sucker for :The wedding goes wrong and everything is going to hell but everyone agrees that it was actually the best fucking wedding they ever went to and both people getting married are just so happy to be together and in love and maybe just a little glad to be still alive in the first place scenarios
ANON I WANT TO KISS YOU LET ME KISS YOU LET'S KISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR BRAIN IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU FOR THIS.
this is EXACTLY how i imagine sanuso's wedding. i think usopp would want everything to be perfect for sanji bc he has this perception of sanji being this big romantic guy who wants the perfect wedding (and, y'know, he is. he literally would demand to cook his own wedding food). but then everything goes horribly wrong and,,, it's perfect. because getting attacked and destroying everything around them is SO them that they're just happy to be experiencing stuff like this. they're just happy to be alive and together,,,
i would actually love usopp feeling genuinely guilty, saying something like: "i'm sorry this happened. i- we can- we can try and make another celebration if you want-"
"i want you, usopp. i don't need another celebration. i don't need another wedding. i didn't even need one in the first place to show the world how much you mean to me. this was perfect. but- but if you do want to have another-"
"no! no! this was perfect i- i was worried about you not having the perfect, romantic wedding you hoped for."
"oh, mon trésor. it was perfect and romantic and everything i hoped for because you are here. that's all i need."
"you are such a sap."
"but you blushed."
"... this was perfect."
"you are."
and now i am very sad bc i love them too much and i need a sanuso wedding asap. oda make it happen. i haven't watched WCI yet so i'm gonna go and pretend for a while that they're getting married.

Benched is a PEAK episode I mean, Pigsy singing? Macactus whump? Tang's inspirational speech? the energy was high during that scene. Anyways, ep breakdown LEGGO!! Wdym that's YT, its Wukong calling his ex bff "Macat" XD anyways. This ep is the start of "Wukong can't read" jokes which I've seen people get pretty annoyed at, but y'know, the actual punchline was that he has stage fright. He can read if he's been sending MK letters, he just can't do it in front of people. I don't know HOW you pinged Pigsy as a good singer but lmao, nice job. I never guessed it. My reaction was more of a "this may as well happen." Congrats to Tang for no longer being the token human, he didn't realize had powers at ALL until they fully manifested today. Machingling being in charge of effects makes sm sense for his character lol, for a shadow to control the lighting and smoke effects on set heh. the background player. Lucky for Tang this ep, he's not Macquackers here who routinely fails every evil henchmen mission he's ever sent on and gets his fluffy behind handed to him every time. Us, the audience knowing his situation and Wukong being so serious about Machocolate-melting-in-the-sun like he isn't the most pathetic wet beast this season is really funny. Yep, still in the lantern, because turns out. Yeah, he can in fact, stop at something and that's called "being electrocuted at point blank range and being super overwhelmed by the noise" lookie there! they threw in a Six Ears reference by how he reacted!
It was a very good episode.
I was going to comment on the not being able to read thing, but I opted not. I'm pretty sure lots of people already voiced my exact opinion on it.
It'd be better if the creators kinda went with the JttW route, Wukong being blind and relying on Golden Vision to see. And with it being paper, he can't necessarily read words that are printed on it. Not really possible in this story, but it would have made a bit more sense.
But, yeah, the punchline really being his stage fright. That's fine. I don't know many people who haven't experienced any kind of stage fright.
Pigsy being able to sing just seemed to fit into this universe lmao. Also, I think I've heard his VA sing before? I could be misremembering, but I think he can actually sing.
I'm happy for Tang. He deserves some powers. As a treat.
I mean, considering their past, Wukong has every right to treat Macbean as a serious threat. But it is hilarious bc we do know better.

Watching TMNT Next Mutation Episode 7 (when I really shouldn't be but... eh.) 😅
Ramblings under the cut.
Sewer rays? OK.
Dude's riding a motorbike through the sewer. Raph just makes it look so cool he stated a trend huh?
"Do I wanna meet the NYPD? Hmm... naaahh, absolutely not!" Same Mikey, same...
Big monkey. Who is his voice actor? He sounds familiar...*
"I can't believe this! I've been dissed by a gangster ape!" Mikey bro this is like a regular Monday for you surely?
"Certified turtlefied!" Adding that to the List of Things I Can't Believe They Say
"Cops in the sewers? They don't sell donuts down here!" Raph providing the obligatory donut jokes 👍
"I dunno what you been eatin'. But I want some." Why don't they believe Mikey about the monkey dude? Like literally they are talking turtles. If anything a talking ape is less weird
These gangsters are all dressed like they're cosplaying alt- design Joker Funko Pops. Or they got lost on the way to audition to be in the 60s Batman TV show.
"We're ninja - not the Power Rangers!" Yesssssss they're crossing the streeeeeaaaamms!
Raph 'n' roll honestlyyyyyyy that's a catchphrase?? Raph buddy...
"That's team leader" 😤 Aw Don Don, you don't deserve this disrespect
"EY BAWS" hoooooo my god
"The schnooks" OK Venus.
"Battlin' crime is FUN! Heh heh I feel like Batman!" Yeah that'll be the knockoff Joker suits.
Also like... the guys are acting like they don't fight crime? But like... they fought the Foot before? And I know that was bc they were an evil ninja clan specifically but you can't tell me they weren't Doing A Crime every now and then? And that was probably why the turtles fight them, at least sometimes??
The TA DAAAAA sound effect again 👌
All the money flying out of the back of the van this is genuinely the cheesiest live action cartoon
God I love how completely done Donnie is today
Mikey that was so fruity (affectionate)
Oh that's convenient. They moved most of the gold in Fort Knox to NYC for a bit. Of course.
The turtles just so happen to be living directly under half the gold in America right now. Of course.
"Translation for the thick of skull" oof Donnie he's your brother! Or not. So you all have a free pass to hit on your sister Venus.
"I suggest big caution" Leo providing much needed representation for people who can't words good (me).
NUCULAR?? DON WTF YOU ARE NOT HOMER SIMPSON
Isn't there a super villain who's a big monkey dude? I can't remember rn and its winding me up**
Honestly these accents... I could've been a VA on this show. I can butcher an East Coast accent with the best of them
Was I supposed to be able to see that wire??
Oh no they've trapped Venus in a classic Thunderbirds episode!
No genuinely though this could be pretty exciting if it wasn't like 3 minutes from the end of the episode...
Raph is very worried. "Whadda we doo just stand around and PANIC??" He's so relatable
Aw Don...
Aw they're crying 😭 bless them
It's a good job Donnie and Venus didn't die, the other three have to share one brain cell and I'm not sure Splinter could handle that alone
The code was Donnie's birthday asdghghfgdgk
"You mess with the monkey and it gets funky" this dude is legit a Power Rangers villain
--
*IT WAS GARY CHALK! I knew I knew that voice! How's a guy get typecast as a talking gorilla, anyway? I really hope that whoever cast him did that intentionally, and if they did I hope they also know that they're a legend.
**I think I might be thinking of Gorilla Grodd??

Ask game questions! 5, 7, 8, and 23 for spamton bc I'm legally obligated to ask about him. You don't have to do all of them tho if you don't want!
5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?
I'm Gonna Win - Rob Cantor
First song I thought of, though I'm sure there are other more suitable songs I could come up with. But honestly, due to my illness I don't get to listen to music often. I'm sensitive to sound.
7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?
There's been some really nice fanart, and I love the fake ad ones people make, and the pinups. I love buying merch from people.
Its also nice when people treat their plushes nicely, or actually see him as more than just the "funny salesman." Don't get me wrong, Spamton's is an awesome a salesman and all, but that's not all he is.
Oh, my fave part though, is how everyone celebrates his fan birthday. Thats super sweet. I love seeing people make fanart for that.
23. Favorite picture of this character?
Hm.. there's lot of great fanart of him, and you can see what I post already.
But I guess his shop sprite. It's fun to talk to him.
I do wonder what he would be like in person though.
8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?
Haha... heh.... well, this will get long... (Sorry.)
Mostly just the fact that the fandom is made up of a LOT of hateful people, who hatepost about Spamton because he's "popular," or because their fans of Swatch/Queen/Addisons and are in denial about what those guys did to him so they try to pin it on Spamton by saying "he deserved it" or saying it never happened.
Which is REALLY ironic in a way. But wait, we got more!
(_WARNING: RANT INCOMING!_ You dont have to read this.)
Many people can't get past the "funny salesman" trope. They think the salesman pitch Spamton puts on is literally all he is, that he really is this guy who is silly, obsessed with money, and batshit crazy. Does no one know how entertainment works!? Has no one ever followed a YouTuber or Twitch streamer, or gone to the circus or seen a live show? That how people act in front of a camera, isnt how they act all the time!? Spamton doesn't actually care about money, he said it himself; he does all he does because he's an entertainer trying to survive! The Spamton Sweepstakes, the Fangamer ads, the Twitter replies... while they contain truths and genuine things about him, for much of it, he's playing everyone like fiddles! He's saying whatever the hell he can to make you buy his shit, because funny thing, its his job! And the things is, it WORKS. Everyone totally buys in to it! But while I'm sure he does find joy in what he does, it can also be kind of painful that everyone actually thinks that's all he is in a way... they infantilize him, they treat him like he's crazy/stupid, they stereotype him, they make fun of him, they talk about wanting to hurt him... and they think its okay, because "he's in on the joke." Yeah? You really think anyone would find joy in seeing you make art of them getting abused/hurt/killed? REALLY? Ever thought that maybe... its not actually okay....
I guess I feel bothered by it. Sure Spamton chooses to play up all the stereotypes about him so that people will buy his stuff, and its cool that he can still joke about things like that. But... I wish people saw more of the real him sometimes, and realized he deserves kindness and respect like anyone else.
But I think Spamton is a good example of how people go too far, how they'll greedily take everything from someone, even their dignity, if it means feeding their own happiness. How they can't separate entertainment from reality (... yeah yeah, some irony there as I'm talking about a fictional character...)
In a way, the Spamton fandom, often represents to me, much of the things I hate about the entertainment industry, hell even fandom. I'm glad people love him and buy his stuff, but I also wish they liked him for kinder reasons. I hope that if he continues to be in entertainment, he gets to make something he loves, that allows him to be who he wants to be. Because like many of us, he sometimes gets trapped in a role, determined by other people. And while some of it is true, like he is funny and has a dark sense of humor, and I'm sure he does enjoy many of the things he does... but some of it, I think is sort of forced on him. It's like if you don't act the way everyone wants, they'll get angry or abandon you. And that, thats awful.
(And Im not saying don't enjoy his salesman persona, just that, I wish people saw the rest of him too. Because he's a kind, caring and brave guy, and I really wish him the best ya know?)
.... of course, I admit this might be some of my own self-projection too, but lets not unpack THAT.
...
......
You made it this far, wow... uh... *gives you a gold star saying "I just wasted several minutes of my life to an insane fan rant." except all the words don't fit on the star, so it just says "I just wasted."*
... *runs away while you ponder the star*

i only need super minimal encouragement to talk about this soooooo ty @freetobeeyouandme lmao. been thinking about stranger things heist au again. and it got long into brainstorming territory so just... (waves hand vaguely) thoughts continue under the cut.
legacy families like the byers who never pulled high-end jobs, content in their little pond being small-time crooks incapable of understanding why jonathan, with all his flawless lifts and situational awareness, would try to reach above and start in on the big jobs.
joyce who met lonnie on a job and joyce and jonathan who protect will from lonnie's frustration when will turns out to be an awful thief who doesn't enjoy crime the littlest bit. (he does turn out to be quite the forger when the time comes, though.)
contrast with that the wheelers who are an all-american halfway happy law-abiding family whose eldest, nancy, walks eyes front into a life of crime to protect her friend and finds that it becomes inevitable, a sort of ceaseless need to keep going. who never wanted her little brother involved.
but apparently the wheeler siblings have some sort of crime beacon on them because of course nancy quite literally crashes into her brother trying to take down the same scumbag two towns over she is, although he looks at her like she's crazy when she lays out her plan and man, what her little brother has planned is actually pretty clever and much more subtle than the approach she was gonna take. they have ground rules, but she doesn't try to keep him from pulling jobs. she knows it'd be useless.
dustin is an incredibly bright kid with what may be a slight tendency to go overboard in the name of Science. he loves blowing stuff up every now and again, okay?! and also it's just criminal (heh) what some pharma companies do so he might be breaking into their headquarters and screwing with their formulas and contaminating their experiments until he figures out how to take them down permanently. sue him! (but please don't actually sue him, he hasn't found a great lawyer yet.)
lucas on the other hand was dragged into crime kicking and screaming. not something he ever wanted to do. (will will understand but then lucas kind of loses him when he did it anyway.) mike and dustin sort of kidnapped him into it, basically, when they were all still strangers, dustin and mike barely partners on this one con, and they'd needed a patsy who worked for the corporation they're stealing from. unfortunately they were still young and dumb enough to pick someone actually smart who trapped them in an office until they copped to their scheme at which point lucas demanded proof of their accusations which coincidentally was exactly what mike anf dustin were after. after that they can’t really seem to separate. he's turned into a jack of all trades, lucas sinclair - grifter, thief, hitter... even the occasional hacker. not the greatest at any, but good at all.
(we don't talk about erica who will one day give him a heart attack blowing up his whole carefully crafted alibi.)
steve, the getaway driver who hates his fucking job and is in it only bc there was p much nothing else to do until he finds people who show him there's a way to do it that brings him joy, when he knows what he's fighting for.
robin's a strange sort of grifter, not someone who immediately charms everyone in a room, but who knows how to make herself either invaluable or severely underestimated. she speaks like every language under the sun. like steve she has a certain aimlessness at first but unlike steve it's not due to having no ideas but more of a thing of having no options. until they're offered to her. then she's unstoppable.
max is out there somewhere being a thief different from jonathan, self-made and scared and on the west coast. but if they were to meet jonathan would recognize those gritted teeth and the hard work. it's not natural talent that made her so good at what she does but pure stubbornness.
el, on the other hand, is all raw talent and exploited for it for a long time when she's a kid. it's will who meets her first, who gives her an out, but when it lands him in trouble it's the other criminals who help her get him out. joyce, mike and jonathan develop an instantaneous protective streak for her. lucas isn't sold and dustin is mostly in love with her demolitions capabilities and nancy is hungry for the dirt she has on various government agencies.
