*superglues them together*
Aka, eeeeh fok it. Here's some ougoku stuff I've been sitting on. Happy THOSE GUYS day.
#gonta gokuhara#gokuhara gonta#kokichi ouma#ouma kokichi#kokichi oma#danganronpa#v3#ndrv3#ougoku#ougoku day#awwgoku#wip#I drew some of these for jellybeanbagel to bribe them into finishing their fangame lmao.#2021-2023 stuff#my art#I doubt me liking this ship is a surprise to anyone given my old uploads but tbh it's a miracle that I do. Or should I call it 'anomaly'?#this is very much a 'ship chose me' scenario - my conflicting feelings towards it oddly became part of the appeal that I learned to embrace#it's complicated and might be due to me being prolly uncommon case of Gonta-main ougoku enjoyer and maybe also a masochist sdfdf#but I will never object to Gonta being treated kindly when it comes to fluff and 'what could've been' potential#and upsetting parts are compelling and deserve to be seen and explored for what they are- it's a waste to justify/idealise or minimize them#and boy do these guys have an emotional range I physically cannot overlook despite visceral and deeply personal pain some parts of it cause#...and also because of it#and on that note - I have some not so sweet nor cozy stuff with them as well that I might compile one day... to balance this post >:)#still tho I promise to give other gonta ships some love too. after all this is only one of my top 3

* how would the others react if dev got to chance to become a pixie? (If that makes any sense, very sorry if it doesn’t)
They'd be horrified and won't know how to process the information.
In this grim timeline, CosWan would have to come to terms that their youngest son is a walking death flag, while also embracing their new grandchild as much as they had embraced Timmy. It's a whole new terrifying life to navigate, but they'll do their best to navigate it together as family.
Bitties Series: [Start] > [Previous] > [Next]
#fairly oddparents#fop#fop a new wish#fop cosmo#fop wanda#cosmo#wanda#asks#itty bitties fop au#tw implied death#dev becoming a fairy would create a shrodinger's situation#as long as dev's in fairyworld peri is both alive and dead and neither and both!! just like Cosmo and Wanda!!!#theres all sorts of emotions going on and all sorts of things could happen#but most importantly. coswan will REFUSE to break the family apart because of it#this would be a very grim but also hopeful and optimistic story#theyll never let Dev know how much pain his arrival would bring#they'd rather smother him with love and dedication to ensure that the worst case scenario never ever happens#but peri would know that his parents are agonizing and are suffering heartbreak over what he's done#purposely omitting timmy from this bcs in all honestly he might just kill a guy#haha

i don't think wonderland is ready for those alices
#i have so so many things i could say about this cielois madness returns au (yeah that's what i call it. it's not even meant to be cielois)#(but like. ship names are convenient aren't they)#anyway so many things. but that would be a lot so i'll talk about it if someone asks or if i feel like it later#this post's rambles will be about the outfits!!#so. i gave ciel the dollhouse dress and alois the queensland dress#i know they could have been swapped. and it might have made more sense#HOWEVER#i do not care#i can and will put alois in red just because i want to. and of course i would give him a red fit in an amr fusion au#the vibes are rancid. it's perfect. that's what him being in this au is about!!#terrible things happen to children in kuro and in alice ok#anyway. i know queensland would be good for ciel because r!ciel BUT please envision queen luka i BEG#it's heartwrenching to see lizzie look so small in the game already so luka???? soul crushing. i want it.#now. the dollhouse dress for ciel#because of funtom mostly... and the vibes... and he's more of a doll than alois is ngl...#like. i know that it fits alois more because it's heavy on the trafficking and poverty parts but. see if i care#plus the minor theme of exorcising the evil of the city through the pain of children is more ciel-coded. so yeah#and he looks so bad in red oh my god i could not give him another dress... unless it was the mad hatter one and it would have been boring#also very much not fitting#you might notice that i changed the symbols on both of their aprons#in both cases i replaced female with male obviously but#in ciel's case the dollhouse dress has so many disgusting implications and i made them worse you're welcome <3#(replaced female with male and male with one of the symbols you can see on the contract seal. yeah yeah that's fucked i know)#(it's alice madness returns. and fucking black butler. bad things be happening to children!!)#anyway#that's it for my rambles#i got too lazy to do the vorpal blade and hobby horse light trails#so we'll live with the fact that my sketch has better vibes than the final piece#kuroshitsuji#kuroshitsuji fanart

Comic book writers who still make Bruce hit his kids even after years of mass criticism from fans who TELL you it's a bad creative choice that pushes them away from the fan base and comics in general,,, you did this for what?
#no bc like lets talk about it. if you hate robins that much. just. don't include them. but it's a very specific case of brain rot for comic#book nerds and writers -- MALE comic book nerds & writers -- that just. stops them from understanding#we're here because we love seeing bruce being a good father? we're here because we enjoy seeing a male superhero capable of#care and love after being so heavily traumatized to OTHER traumatized people? like. why. why is it so hard#to believe we love bruce more when he's a good father? ik the answer -- its bc these creators and consumers are#shitty men in general and they're incapable of understanding we might find healthy traits cooler than the machismo toxicism they've#been regurgitating since the fucking 90s#please just let a woman or a non shitty mam write bruce because this is so tiring#bruce wayne#dc#batman#bruce wayne is a good dad

thinking about mafia shen family au. the system is fucking around with shen qingqius life again and is like yk what if ur not gonna tell your husband anything about yourself then ill force you to. have fun! :D
sqq doesn’t even have the time to think 'wtfff??' before Everything Happens. shen yuan’s soul gets shoved back into his original body just moments before he dies. in this version of the au he was choking on food, so he gets the lovely experience of having his airflow blocked again! lucky for him, the system dragged binghe along for the ride so he is saved before he dies again.
this route for mafia au means that the shen family never had to grieve shen yuan. im not sure how the Family reacts to their a-yuan suddenly having a very strong and intimidating significant other (boyfriend? husband?!??? wdym he got married without telling us!?!?) all of a sudden. does shen yuan come out to his family?? no, but also yes, but also not really. they knew he wasn't straight this entire time, so its more like they are coming out to him instead of the other way around. god knows they have bigger skeletons in their closets, they don't care if a twink is in there too.
there is less angst here, and it mostly centers around the comedic factor of shen yuan showing binghe around his house only for them to "stumble upon" an entire closet filled with guns..!?! shen yuan is just standing there in complete horror as binghe grabs a whole ass ar-15!?!?? hes looking at him with the most innocent eyes asking him what this strange metal object is. jesus fucking christ. his white lotus is holding a gun and now he has to explain gun control policies while his brain is leaking out of his ears. he opens his mouth right before an alarm starts blaring everywhere. he’s saved by the bell! except not really, because now six members of his Family are surrounding them and pointing several guns at binghe!!!!! what the actual fuck is going on here!!!!!! this is not how the 'meet the parents' arc is supposed to go!!
#⚙️#im gonna name this route#binqiu shen family mafia au#because i want to write the binggeyuan version#and i wanna specify which mafia aus im talking about when i post. i cant make up my mind on where i want to take this lol#shen yuan mafia au#the 'closet' was actually very well hidden with several different mechanisms locking it away#im sure sy also had to do a finger scan to open it#and he didnt think much about it because 'all the other doors in his house have locks like that!' its no big deal if we open this one#he showed binghe around to all of the secret spots in his family home where he would hide. and one of those spots happened to be a safe roo#that had a closet full of snacks + warm blankets + and several sets of spare clothes to change into#he never knew that there was another door behind all those coats! wow his house has so many cool features in it!#DA GE WHY DO WE OWN SO MANY GUNS WTF#THIS ISNT AMERICA?????????????#BTW the Family thinks that binghe is probably a spy or smth and preying on sy to get to the Family. that might be important to mention. idk#svsss#svsss au#shen yuan#luo binghe#even tho hes barely mentioned... sorry lbh ill expand on your role here later...#scumbag self saving system#scumbag system#mxtx svsss#svsss luo binghe#bingqiu#its there if u squint#i am the system in this case#i want to put sy into so many Situations™️#svsss shen yuan

Ehehehehehe lookit him!!!!! The boy!!!! He!!
Found this figure in akihabara during a class trip to Tokyo and even though my luggage was pretty stuffed already I couldn’t resist,, maybe it’s a good thing they only had sabo and luffy in stock because if they had Ace as well I definitely would have been spending thrice as much
#need to find a display case for him so he doesn’t get dusty :)))#probably won’t take him back to campus with me because moving the figurines I already have in my dorm will already be enough of a hassle#and I’m kind of running out of shelf space for figurines#but oh my god this was such a lucky find. and for 3400円#:)))))#this sparks very much joy#look at him smiling!!!#might do a redraw tbh

Every so often I see... interesting takes about Zemo that leave me questioning if we... all saw the same stuff.
Like, you know he commanded a death squad before his fam even died, right? This man is not a good dude. Sure, maybe it was in the name of his country but also... his country was a shit show and he said as much.
So I am absolutely perplexed by the number of "he wouldn't do x" and "why does everyone make him so toxic" kinds of things. He actively waterboarded Vasily Karpov like one of the first times we saw him. He was put in the RAFT because he is a fucking terrorist.
This feels like another one of those things I guess that reminds me of Hannibal. Him being polite doesn't make him any less of a cannibal. You can be both polite and a bad person.
#Zemo#lil rant am sorry#is this what woobification is?#Is this why I am reacting so strongly about this?#My poor group chat every time I come across this because I react viscerally#To each their own on headcanons I guess#Live and let live#But I am PERPLEXED.#Anyway I'm going to continue to enjoy Zemo being a piece of shit trash man who might occassionally show a soft spot if it benefits him#rant#In case clarification is needed this is very much about people who seem to make him really sweet/kind#And then talk about how other people are weirdos or freaks for acknowledging canon and liking him anyway??

PSA: MSMC Contract Offer Guidelines
In light of the recent anonymous contract offers our fellow mercenaries at @corsair-mc-official have been receiving, Upper Management would like to remind its beneficiaries of the terms and regulations regarding the contract requirements of MSMC.
In compliance with Union policy, all would-be contractors offering jobs to the mercenary squadrons employed by MSMC must include the following information when submitting job offers:
Full name of the person(s) / organization / corporate entity / etc. submitting the job offer
Identification number of squadron(s) requested for deployment
Job description, which must include: deployment location(s), contract length, liability risks (defined here as "potential threats to the pilots, MSMC, or other parties as a result of undertaking this contract"), allied parties (if applicable), and pay grade
Specialized personnel / equipment requirements (if applicable)
Job offers submitted anonymously will be automatically rejected by MSMC, as they stand in direct violation of company policy as per the requirements listed above.
Furthermore, any job offers which list active war zones or otherwise contested territories as areas of deployment (including but not limited to: the Dawnline Shore, Free Sanjak, New Madrassa, and the Karrakin Trade Baronies) are subject to immediate rejection at MSMC's discretion. Would-be contractors should be advised that they may be contacted through private channels to further clarify the services requested of MSMC's mercenaries in these locations and ensure their job offers are in compliance with Union policy.
MSMC would also like to remind its pilots that any suspicious job offers should be rejected and reported to Upper Management, so that their sources may be traced for questioning and appropriate legal action may be taken (if necessary).
In the event of a squadron accepting an illegal contract, all liability for injury, damages, and death becomes the full responsibility of the squadron(s) contracted for the job, as per the updated MSMC guidelines. MSMC takes full legal responsibility for all pilots under its employ, but it will not be held liable if if its assets are damaged, defamed, or otherwise imperiled by illegal contracts.
MSMC would like to thank all parties for their compliance with these guidelines, and looks forward to receiving your submissions.
-- Upper Management
#lancer rpg#lancer ttrpg#lancerrpg#// in case you were wondering why MSMC didn't help us out more in the wake of the Fireman Saga - here you go#// long story short - what Kennedi did was considered an illegal contract; hence why our squad took full liability for the consequences#// the folks in Legal take their jobs very seriously - us mercs can't go running around doing whatever because it makes MSMC look bad#// we might be a big name in the merc business but given how much grayspace MSMC operates under we're under constant scrutiny from Union#// gotta keep the truly illegal shit to a minimum or else the entire company might go under if Union (or its enemies) decide to investigate

thinking about how akio sees his younger self in utena and wondering if there's any fondness there. doesn't change the horror of what he does to her obviously but i do wonder
#akio and utena#m#long ramble in the tags sorry:#the thing about akio is that he's so evil bit he's also so human#he has feelings. i just don't know what they are (if anything) toward his victims#he loves anthy at the very least i'm sure of that. even if he hates her too. just like she loves and hates him. the lines are blurry.#and i just. i have to wonder whether any of that extends to utena at all. we know anthy at times feels similarly about utena and dios#(and akio by extension.) the simultanious love and resentment. so it's not too unlikely i think.#like. even though he never had anything but bad intentions in getting close to her#i'm not sure it's possible to do everything he did and feel nothing#not that he has any meaningful amount of guilt or remorse for it. i don't think that.#and i obviously don't think he “loved” her in any of the ways she might have thought he did#but did he not care at all? did he not feel any kind of fondness or sympathy or just. idk. pity? for her?#whatever the case it wasn't enough to reconsider having her killed so you know. how much does that actually matter anyway#idk. i think about it a lot. how abusers are rarely entirely indifferent toward their victims#the role he's playing in her life is so fucked up but it IS a role he's playing and i wonder how much he you know... internalizes it?#how much does he believe the illusion of family that he invites her into? because akio DOES often buy into his own illusions.#(similarly i think it's possible that akio is fond of touga too. their mentor-protégé relationship is horrible and abusive#but that doesn't make it less real. you know? maybe real is the wrong word.)#when he talks in episode 25 about wanting utena and anthy closer that's obviously so he can continue to groom her#but is there something genuine there too? i don't know.#again. it obviously does not make anything he does better or even different. but it is interesting to think about to me.#on the other side of that coin does seeing his own past youth and naivete and desire to do good that he (maybe) once had#reflected back at him through her mean anything?#is there resentment there? that she is what he couldn't be? or more likely he just thinks that idealism is stupid.#either way it's something he wants to take from her. anyway ramble over.#i talk a lot about utena's feelings toward akio (familial vs romantic love and the way the two are intertwined in fucked up ways)#but not much the other way around. probably because utena is actually a sympathetic character whose feelings the show very clearly#wants you to analyze and think about.#which is... less true for akio i think. though he's still a complex character with complex motives. he's just harder to get a grasp on.

I recently had a conversation with a friend that made me realise that (maybe) people might not know that the Italian mafia still exists and actively operates all over Italy. Like, the general international public has this old-timey idea of the mafia that stops at the 1950s, with Al Capone, seedy bars, car chases with tommy guns etc. etc. or at least that seems to be the case for the people who don’t live in Europe, or otherwise close to Italy.
So, I made this poll. DISCLAIMER: this poll is NOT so i could judge people in any way. I can’t really fault anyone for not knowing about a problem so tied to Italian soil and culture, I was just curious.
NOTE: I’m not making a distinction between the actual Mafia, Camorra, Ndrangheta etc. etc. just pretend that all Italian organized crime is one big thing for the sake of this poll.
#this was also prompted by the miriad of Mafia AUs I see everywhere online#not that there’s anything wrong with them! They can be really cool#the aesthetic can be awesome and it can be fun to play with a plot revolving around organized crime#I just need people to keep in mind that the Mafia is still very real and it still kills people to this very day#I don’t care if you watch the Sopranos every day or know the Godfather by heart#hell you can have a poster of Al Capone in your bedroom for all I care#just… idk remember this is real. it’s not just smoky bars and the aesthetic and ‘I’ll make you an offer you can’t refuse’#these people kill. the noble mafioso that protects the less fortunate is just a myth. these people have no morals.#countless people - good people - have been killed by mafiosi bc they tried to expose them#I don’t mind if you enjoy the old-times aesthetic but PLEASE do so with the knowledge that it’s just fantasy#because the reality is much worse#There was a news case some years ago of a Mafia boss hiring a hitman from prison to get his own daughter killed#because she exposed him and landed him in jail#so any perceived ‘nobility’ these people might have in the eyes of the international public it’s just a fantasy#idk this is getting long. i don’t want people to think they can never enjoy a mafia AU ever again. I’ll stop now#polls#my polls#tumblr polls#poll#tumblr poll#roba italiana#Italian tumblr
