He didn't even get a proper goodbye race?? They scrapped him in the middle of a double header instead of announcing it and letting him race his last race as a goodbye…

as we all know izuku is famously headcanoned as bisexual!!!! (which i agree with)

I’d like to fill you all with some angst. So I headcanon that yeah! he was bi-curious in middle school but 14-year-old Izuku Midoriya had bad internalised homophobia. The kids in his class would think he was weird for being so attached to Katsuki when all dear Kacchan would do was bully him. So they all started a rumour about him having a crush on Katsuki.…Katsuki probably used that as leverage to keep bullying Izuku or NOT? (I’m not that evil) and Izuku found himself stuck between telling himself he couldn’t have an attraction to men (because yes he also liked girls) and that he’d admired Katsuki or that he could and he just couldn’t be attracted to Katsuki AT ALL because both of those revolutions in a 14-year-olds mind would practically be social suicide and the end of the world.

(been there done that buddy 😉)

Hey hilda fandom. Nine days. Like just 9 of them. How we holding up

[colorisbyshe]

height discourse at concerts is useless but like... idk... there is a difference between "this is just how you are and that can't be changed" and "you are making things harder for the people immediately around you with little to no benefit for yourself"

like... i do always go back to the drag queen at the babymetal show

who wore massive heels AND had on a MASSIVE wig with MASSIVE horns on them

in the front row

like... if you took away the heels and the wig, their experience would be the same, but the experience of literally everyone around them would've been better

yeah, they paid, they can go however they want, but also....

it'd be nice if one of the things they wanted was to be more considerate

Finished the first two episodes of PJO. Got thoughts (if anyone cares). Putting under a read more cuz it’s a bit lengthy

Before I go into the cons (cuz I got some unfortunately), the pros:

Aryan is so cute I adore him

I love the main trio in general. I think some of the acting isn’t always great but their chemistry and adorableness make up for it

I especially love the percabeth relationship. Walker and Leah did a great job showing that doofus Percy and irritated Annabeth relationship. Especially their early on “Annabeth looking down on Percy while he understandably flounders around.” I cannot wait to see more of them!!!

Saw someone on Twitter talk about the armor adjustment scene and how it could be a parallel to them later on as their relationship progresses and I hope so badly that they do that

Love Clarisse. Does a great balance between being unlikeable and being unenjoyable

LOVE Mr. D. Had absolutely no doubt that Jason Mantzoukas would crush this role and am glad to see it. Perfect level of unhinged and unnervingness. Literally the perfect person to play the role

It has a decent script. Not perfect, but I like how witty Percy is and there’s a lot of good written chemistry between characters and I found myself chuckling a lot, which is great as an adult with a show targeted towards younger audiences

The scenery is GREAT. I always have a hard time visualizing camp in my mind while reading and I think the show perfectly balances a normal summer camp with fantasy. Would’ve liked to see more of it, like a proper tour, but I know there’s not a lot of time. Hopefully we get to see more of it in later episodes

Great fight choreography. Wish there was a little more of it. Again, maybe they were cut for time but the fight scenes just seemed very rushed. But what we did see was so good. Especially loved Percy’s little duck and roll thing he did

Which brings us to the negatives. I wish I didn’t have any, but unfortunately I have a lot. I base these both as a fan of the books and as a show as a whole:

First things first, the pacing. It’s awful. It felt like a bunch of random scenes clipped together. There’s almost zero flow between scenes. It reminds me of watching the deleted scenes in the DVD bonus features and the weirdly long pauses between some scenes added to that. Nothing felt connected

To add to pacing, everything felt really rushed. As I said before, I get that timing is an issue, but I felt sped through everything. Considering it’s a tv show and we were promised more than was in the book, I didn’t expect so much to be left out. Nothing too important, but as I said before, it could’ve used better transitioning between scenes. I was left kind of disappointed and I can’t imagine not reading the books and being expected to follow this

On that note, explanations were iffy. It felt like they wanted to rush through explaining stuff to get to other parts which is fine for us readers but I think new audiences might struggle to follow. There’s a lot of information that the audience needs to know and I don’t think they properly addressed everything

One thing that comes to mind as I’m typing this is the wheelchair. They never show what it’s for. They introduce Chiron at camp as a centaur and have him be one for the entire time and so to an unknowing audience there’s just a random empty wheelchair during a scene. If they weren’t going to use it, they should’ve cut that out

The scene with the Cloven Elders felt unnecessary. I get they want to explore other POVs outside Percy’s but nothing that happened in that scene felt necessary to the plot. Barely anything happens and most of what happens is explained verbally through Grover later. I wonder if the scene was cut for time but it probably should’ve been cut altogether. It didn’t add anything except a tiny bit of worldbuilding and having them go INSIDE the tree was weird and not even from the books. There’s like a whole forest inside the forest which gives me Dodona vibes which it shouldn’t

As I said before, the acting isn’t great at times. That’s fine considering I was a House of Anubis stan once (hence the icon). Acting is honestly not the most important part of a show as long as they have interesting characters with good chemistry (which they do!) but still pulled me out of it a bit. Some of the delivery was kind of dry

There were multiple times when I thought the direction could’ve been better. It wasn’t necessarily the acting (although that was part of it). For example, which Annabeth says “you drool in your sleep”. She says it very monotonously and matter of fact and just stared at him unmoving which is fine cuz I think that’s how it worked in the book but I think it might’ve worked better if she said it more petulantly and hurried away. This is very nitpicky tho and is mostly just opinion

Speaking of Annabeth, though: I wanted to see her more! I get we will see her plenty throughout the season but I love her and would’ve liked her to be introduced sooner. She meets Percy earlier in the books so she could’ve been introduced sooner. I also want to see her and Chiron interact (which we will hopefully get ep 3) so we can see that father daughter relationship. (I did like the way she was introduced though. They did that really well. I just want to see her more🥰)

A note for the next ep promo: WHY did it spoil that they were gonna be meeting Medusa??! That was supposed to be a surprise and they just gave it away in the PROMO????

One last thing cuz I’m mad. I already made a separate post about it but THALL-EE-UH???? That’s literally how I pronounced it when I first read it and was repeatedly told it was wrong and it was TALL-ee-uh so I switched my brain over and NOW you tell me I was right??? I knew some pronounciations were gonna be wrong but I was PRETTY SURE about that one

I definitely had more thoughts while watching (some that are extremely nitpicky that I’m going to force myself to ignore) but I didn’t take notes while watching and am already starting to forget details. Overall, I did love it, but I think a lot of the love came from my existing love of the series. I first read PJO 13 years ago and it was the first book series I truly fell in love with and remains my favorite to this day. A lot of feelings are my love biasing me both positively and negatively, and it makes me wonder if I would have chosen to continue watching the show if I hadn’t already had that love. Honestly, I don’t think I would. However, I do plan on continuing to watch and support and hopefully the rest of the season goes well!

they call me the migraine man because i

[adlcrz]

There's a little story

Of a night your star's alight

It seems a little tired

Maybe it was just a dream

First time I saw into

Your eyes your, eyes, your eyes

It seized me

Like a dream I'd never dreamed before

I'd never seen a rainbow

Closing down my rainy days

Hate to see the shadows

Fading on my weary eyes

You just come and

Smile again, again, again

Come save me

In the glitter of a spark

I'm waiting here

In this moonlight on the ocean

Don't say it's just my illusion

Because I'll love you

More than I need you

Now come into my heart

And I can get through the tides

With you for better days

Because I'll never let you down forever

Come and feel my faith

Stay in me

And be near

When you're lost in the paradise

You never had

With these lonely hands

I'll hold your hands

Because I'll love you more than

I need you oh

Can't you see my love

Now I can get through the tides

With you in better days

Because I'll never let you down forever

Can't you feel my faith

Stay in me

And be near

If you're gonna come to me tonight

I'll see you along your dream

If you're gonna go to shine the star

I'll chase the dark away

And if you're gonna left me in your heart

I will let your love take me back to life

Because I'll love you

More than I need you

Now come into my heart

Now I can get through the tides

With you in better days

Because I'll never let you down forever

Come and feel my faith

Stay in me

And be near

Because I'll pray

Because I'm now lovin' you

With all I am all my heart

As a Mexican-German myself, I heavily relate to Medic and I feel disheartened when I see people around me say they dislike that headcanon because there’s “no proof”

Who cares about proof??? HES MEXICAN AND GERMAN BECAUSE I SAY SO (have silly photo)

I don't intend to reenter discourse for a fandom thats mostly dead, but can we please stop pretending people are ableist for not knowing that Entrapta is in her 30s?

Visually, she doesn't look any older than our much younger protagonists. She doesn't have wrinkles, scars (despite scars making sense due to the reckless work she does) or gray hairs to make her look older.

Her age is also never mentioned in the show itself. Its not like she passes Catra an invite to her 34th birthday next week, so all we have to go on is other character's perceptions of her. Which are horribly ableist, but that is for another post.

Not every fan stalks the authors twitter. and that doesn't make them fake fans or bad people.

That being said, if you still treat her as a child after you learn the writers tried to write her older than the rest of the cast, stay away from me.
