#being a hater is my specialty

[seokmattchuus]

Since I'm upset at my Hyeonju getting stuck as the ceo of unis elementary, here's my kinda-realistic better 5th-8th ranks (only because I feel like the top 2-4 have been locked in for a while)

5. Hyeonju - 2001

6. Sunwoo - 2003

7. Narumi - 2006

8. Haram - 2006

Elisia would be the youngest with Yunha just two months older. This is definitely a better unnie line than just hyeonju by herself bc ain't no way you're gonna have a 01 liner and 07 liner both be in the unnie like. like. bffr. She's the only unnie in there. Idc.

I hope Hyeonju pulls a Junwon and leaves before the actual debut 😭 Take her new popularity bring it back to cignature. I don't think this group will do that much better anyways.

I absolutely adore all the tickle headcanons you have for Poseidon! He absolutely needs to be wrecked, the idea of him being all pissy and defensive over it is so adorable. I'm a far lee leaning switch but Poseidon gets my ler mood raging like absolute crazy. Special Delivery is wonderful! Speaking of such, I'm super curious now, what's your favorite animatic/animation concept for him? There's so many good ones! I'd say Neal Illustrator's Poseidon is my personal favorite.

Zmalanckf thank you so much! I seriously love him sooooo much, I just HAVE to bully him! He’s a lil bitch who needs his shit wrecked! I’m his biggest fan & #1 hater, I need him to be screaming for mercy. It’s always so fun when a character is so powerful & scary so you just decide to completely negate all of that by making them extremely ticklish (it’s my specialty)

I feel you, I’m def a lee leaning switch, but damn he really does things to me! Switch mood go brr

& if you liked that one, you’re gonna LOVE my 600 strike alternate ending! Just like the other Poseidon/Ody fic, this one’s gonna be v homoerotic & intense lol. But I know y’all wouldn’t want it any other way! 😉

As for my favorite Poseidon designs, my absolute favorite is anniflamma’s Poseidon. Their ruthlessness animatic is what got me into epic in the first place, & I’ve been crushing on him ever since lol. Mircsy & bambiilooza’s designs also are pretty high up there too! Never met a Poseidon design I didn’t like lmao

[genshin-hsr-rambles]

saw ur post abt aven + topaz n jade and as a jade hater it really got me thinking about why i hate her. mostly bc of the stuff w aven ngl but it’s not really what she did that matters but why I think. dunno if other haters feel the same but that’s my take

I don’t personally hate Jade but I can see why people do based on the little information we have of her. I believe you are correct in the sense that it isn’t her actions that define her character but rather her motives. Since we don’t know Jade’s motives as of yet it becomes difficult for the player to have much empathy for her.

After all, it just seems like she treats Aventurine as a ���dog’, so to speak. We don’t actually know why she treats him lowly yet seemingly trusts him. Many people theorise that she sees him as an investment as her specialty is Credit (with Aventurine’s being Stratagems and Topaz’s Debt Retrieval). To invest in a ‘slave’ for the IPC’s benefit certainly makes sense with such a theory, yet we still don’t know why she has come to form such a mindset.

I personally am more interested in knowing how she became Jade before I judge her based on how Kakavasha became Aventurine. Motives are what make or break a character for me.

top 10 strongest nonbenders

ykw. im already here so why not?!?!?!

btw the biggest rule here is who the STRONGEST are. not who my favs are. ok?

so here we go

honorable mentions: ok i dont like putting groups of people which is why the equalists and the kiyoshi warriors arent on here. but they should be!

10. sokka- sokka’s strength was his mind. i love him to death but i think some people really overestimate his physical strength. he was definitely EFFICIENT when it came to fighting but i wouldn’t go any further than that. i feel like since people love sokka (as they should!) they conflate that with his combat ability and tbh i feel like that does his character a disservice. he is the mind of the group he doesn’t need to also be a fighter!

9. long shot- ill be super honest im kind of a freedom fighters hater??? ok not a HATER but i just do not really care when they have screen time. basically what im getting at is i dont remember much of him LOLLLL but like my heart is telling me he was useful and a good fighter. obv his specialty was his archery. but then again he doesn’t do anything to stand out in my mind to make him higher. and i dont remember him really doing anything that’s hand to hand combat.

8. june- so we just dont see much of her but shes got that big sniffer to do like 80% of her fighting for her. i think she doesn’t do much otherwise??? but shes a bounty hunter so shes gotta have some oomph to her.

7. hakoda- ok another person that we dont see MUCH of but we know hes the chief of the southern water tribe and is leading them in the war. and when we do see him fight he slays! we just don’t see it much.

6. asami- literally the 3 fight scenes she has she ROCKS!!!!! but like. why does she…. only have…….. 3 fight scenes…? its so weird. i feel like she is useless when it comes to fight scenes more often than not but idk WHY bc she is a RLY GOOD FIGHTER! her fight scenes genuinely shock me every time bc i forget how good she is. but they hardly show it imo. weird.

5. jet- i was rly close to putting jet at 4 and putting #4 here but HONESTLY the only big feat he has is being able to hold his own against zuko in their 1v1. other than that……doesnt he….. get his ass kicked by everyone else? jet is super resourceful, adaptive, smart, and has great combat skill. he was the leader of the freedom fighters for a reason! i just literally cannot think of a time where he won a fight. am i crazy? idk moving on

4. mai- yeah this diva can throw them mf knives!!!!!! if this show wasnt for kids she wouldve been actually killing bitches but she still gets to use her knives in a cool way! she can go toe to toe with any non bender and tbh a lot of benders too. the fact that AZULA recruits her means she knowssss she can handle herself. she just isnt as impressive as the ppl above her.

3. piandou- a lot of ppl put him at 1 and 2 but i cant do that. he is pretty much THEE master non bender and he is clearly the most skilled swordsman we see in the show. but we dont see him in his prime, and again, im just more impressed by 1 and 2. if we saw more of him maybe i could make a case for him to be higher but the shit that i see numbers 1 and 2 do make him look soft sorry!

2. suki- ugh. love her bad. she is THEEEEE KIYOSHI WARRIOR!!!!!!!!! like. what else do u need me to say. remember that part of boiling rock. when she takes the warden hostage in literal seconds? yeah exactly.

1. ty lee- so. remember when i said i love suki bad? i love ty lee BADDDDDDDDD! she is by far seen as the biggest threat out of any nonbender bc of her chiblocking and rightfully so. like taking away bending. and at her time, no one else (that we know of) could do it. genuinely is such a cool feat and she is the ONLY PERSON WHO KNOWS HOW TO DO IT!! like do i need to say it again?!?!?! benders were scared to fight her AS THEY SHPULD BE! she wasnt just a threat to benders either bc her chiblocking could temporarily paralyze anyone, bender or not. is that not enough? oh ok she is also the most agile nonbender that we see snd its not even close. she literally moves exactly like an airbender without doing any airbending. she is doing flips and tricks and cartwheels and is being cunty while taking ur bending. and she becomes a kiyoshi warrior. ty lee supremacy forever.

new comment from f:  if iono intends to make a statement, then it is only fair that someone so audacious in nature be successful. but we must ask ourselves if it is the right statement to make. the highlight of this ensemble is surely the chunk-heeled footwear, as it did us viewers the favor of only appearing in frame for roughly 10% of the stream. and as far as gym leaders with electric type specialties go, I find her yellow and black combination to be quite trite. ( sorry I couldn't stop thinking about them beefing over clothes )

unprompted (always accepting) || @intriguant

YIPPEE, A NEW COMMENT!!! Despite the fact that she got so many nowadays, she still liked seeing new ones come in, even if she didn't always read every single one like she used to when she'd first started her channel. It didn't really matter to her what the comment was- engagement was engagement! Negative comments were just as good to her as positive ones- actually, the former was probably even better. She loved a good controversy or internet beef! So long as it was mild enough that it didn't end in her having to make her 20-something-th apology video (she'd long since lost count) she was so plugged in.

Her eyes sparkled as she read this one over. It was one of the pettiest comments she'd received all month. It was beautiful- an absolute gold mine. She put on her best faux tears despite being alone in her room save for Bellibolt snoozing amongst her plushies in the corner. (He was doing a pretty great ET cosplay, admittedly.) She forced her hands to tremble as she typed, hoping to make it seem like she was crying and too upset to check for typos in her response.

[ omggggg woowoowowwowza wth?/?/?11??1!! mean to me???? u dont have to be such a HATER!!!111!! i dont remember asking for ur opinion, friendo! :( : ( :( :(:(L( what did i ever do 2 u??? if u dont like my streams u dont have to watch them!!! block me n move on bucko :( :( :( :9 :( sorry my fave colors r boring to u! maybe i just like combee movie did u EVER CONSIDER THAT?????? ur not just insulting me ur insulting combarry cb combenson HIMSELF. stop cyberbullying me, loser!!! ]

Aaaand send. She was going to get sooooo many sympathy comments. Epic win. Take that, random commenter. (Does she know that this commenter is clearly Faba? No. She does not. She's plugged in but she's not that plugged in.)

[b-blushes]

GOD ALSO while im being a hater (medical stuff)

I get deficient in some stuff and had to have an infusion in the summer due to tablets don’t fix it and certain symptoms like breathlessness are things I’m meant to book in for blood tests about to check it’s not happening again if it’s like a persistent symptom, but my gp isn’t allowed/able to book me an infusion, only one of my consultants is, but I’m being discharged from that consultant next summer I think bc I don’t need to see them for their actually specialty bc there’s nothing more they can do to help me. So that leaves me in a bit of a situation if I need an infusion again!!!! Something that would probably be able to be sorted out but at great personal stress and also potentially monetary cost. Even though it’s literally indicated and also shown from experience on my chart what treatment works and what doesn’t for me due to my conditions. Awesome system 👍 anyway hopefully I do have enough of ~the substance~ and don’t need an infusion bc then I don’t need to deal with it <3 <- guy who is actively dealing with all the medical admin and upkeep but wishes they didn’t have toooooo

Final Ceremony - Chapter 4

Characters: Esu, Kanna, Fuyume, Raika, Nice

Translator: Mika Enstars

Proofreader: 310mc

❗️ This chapter was voice-acted live at the 4piece Final Ceremony Live Event! You can listen as you read along!

"? You’ve become a little goose, Esu? That’s so cute."

[Read on my blog for the best viewing experience with Oi~ssu ♪]

Season: Summer

Location: Conference Room

ES’ second year of establishment. Several days after the conclusion of 4piece…

Fuyume: Esu~, Yume’s come to see you! ♪

Esu: HE’S COME TO SEE ME!!!!

Don’t you know I’m already developing a fight-or-flight reaction to that “Yume’s come” of yours?! Look at all the bumps on my arm! Goosebumps!

Fuyume: ? You’ve become a little goose, Esu? That’s so cute.

Esu: There’s nothing cute about this!?

Anyhow, don’t pretend like you’re here to see me!

It’s because NiceP called you here too, right? So you haven’t come to see me, you’ve come here to the meeting spot!

Fuyume: Wha? Really?

Esu: Huh? Why are you here, then?

Fuyume: Because when Yume went to your room, you weren’t there, Esu.

So, Yume came to find you all the way to this place. That’s all.

Esu: Just how many times have you come to find me so far this month? Isn’t it about time you’ve controlled yourself?

Fuyume: Don’t act so cold. This is only the third time.

Esu: Right, and you know what day of the month it iiis?! That’s right, THE THIRD!

That means you’ve been following me around every day! Your track record would impress even stalkers, you knoooow?!

Fuyume: Yume was once taught this lovely saying… “Persistence is key”. Yume will do Yume’s best. ☆

Esu: This… positivity! Positivity is supposed to be my specialty, so could you give it back pleaaase!?

Kanna: Is this a conversation that absolutely must be held at the doorway?

One minute and thirty-eight seconds… That is how long I have been waiting for your conversation to end.

It’s becoming quite the unproductive, meaningless, and useless waste of the time I have in my life.

Esu: Oooh, Kanna?! Could it be you were also called here by NiceP?!

Come on in, come on in! Make yourself at home! Though it’s quite the foul place here unfortunately, so I might not be able to provide any hospitality!

Kanna: Sagiri-san, this is a room under the ownership of ES, so you would not be the landlord.

The very act of showing such hospitality is unnatural.

Esu: That’s true, but! The words came out of me all ‘cause of an overwhelming desire to welcome you, you could say?

Fuyume: Esu. Why’re you bowing your head at this person and over again like some Chinese grasshopper?[1] Yume wishes you would bow to Yume like an insect… Yume’s so sad.

Esu: What, are you by some chance a hater of mine disguised as a fan?

Raika: Ooo–OOOhana-san?![2] For whatever reason are ya here?!

Never in my life did I think I’d be able t’meet Ohana-san in person! Am I due to die tomorrow?!

Esu: Ohana-san…? Wait, wasn’t your stage name “Ohana” when you’d cosplay, Fuyume?

Fuyume: What’s with this guy…? A stalker of Yume? So scary…

Esu: Don’t hide behind me~! And don’t make me your shield while you’re at it!

Actually, do you even have the right to criticize someone for that? Given you’re, y’know, my stalker.

Considering the fact he knows your past stage name, he’s probably a fan of yours, Fuyume. At least treat him politely.

Fuyume: ……

Esu: Why do you gotta be so bad with strangers? I wish you could just get along with everyone else.

Fuyume: Yume doesn’t need that. All Yume needs is Esu.

Yume hates being involved with anyone who isn’t you, Esu. It’s seriously, really, super duper—troublesome.

Esu: Yeah, ‘cause your social competence is reserved aaall for me… I wish you’d at least consider how much trouble it causes me.

Kanna: Hojo Raika…-san?

Raika: Heh? Aye, that’s indeed me, Hojo Raika, a petty little pickpocket—... Er, whose pockets are empty and just ended up in the audition, I suppose you could say?

Kanna: I had known that you participated in 4piece, Hojo-san, but… I didn’t expect to encounter you here.

It’s been a while. It’s Natsu Kanna—The one you saved in the past.

Raika: Umm…?

Ya must be mistaking me for someone else. There’s just no chance out there that a good-for-nothin’ like me is capable of savin’ anyone else!

Kanna: No. It was certainly you. There are no flaws in the data stored within my brain.

Raika: Data…? Natsu-sama, could ya be a robot or somethin’?

Wow…! Robots these days are just so well-made, huh! Looks just like a human!

Esu: Hey, Kanna?! A tragic misunderstanding is happening right in front of my very eyes ‘cause you said the word data, you know!?

Kanna: As long as I am recognized as “Natsu Kanna” to Hojo-san, what species I am perceived as matters not. It’s a common misconception, regardless.

Esu: Yeah yeah, um! How about we don’t avoid hassles and actually clear up the misunderstanding, yeah?!

Ermm, this guy might seem like a robot, but he’s a human who just talks like one! Don’t worry! (?)

Raika: Wha-haa?! So that was terribly rude of me! It’s my fault for bein’ a half-wit…!

Nice: Fufu, I see that all of you are already deepening your bonds. Nice exchanges are a good habit to make!

Esu: Ah, at last the person of interest has arrived!

So why did you call us here today, NiceP? What business do you have us gathered here for?

Nice: Fufu, no need to be so hasty. Before anything, I have a question I’d like to ask the four of you. What did you think of 4piece?

Esu: Of 4piece?

Ummm, I had fun with it just fine. And I got to challenge myself to the “showdowns” I had wanted to do.

Even though I didn’t win, I still gained something out of it, so!

Fuyume: Yume is filled with dissatisfaction. Yume wanted to wear a “princess” outfit, and have a pretty pink ball…

But it’s okay. Yume will forgive it. Because, at the end of the ball, Esu took Yume’s hand and offered Yume a dance… ♪

Kanna: I didn’t find it particularly interesting. Looking objectively at my current status quo, the results were exactly as I had expected.

Raika: I had a whole load o’ fun!

Everyone was so very kind to someone like me the whole time, it was like if a dream came true…!

Nice: I see. I am glad to see that it was a nice experience for each one of you, one that you could not have gotten anywhere else!

Nice: Now, allow me to get to why I gathered all of you here today.

While it is true that you did not win the privilege of being in the Nice Dream Unit through 4piece…

I sense an infinite brilliance coming from within you!

And it’d be such a shame to just let that gleam fade away without polishing it…♪

So how about I polish you myself, and make you into “idols” with the highest brilliance out there?

The four of you here today will be debuting in a unit underneath NEW DIMENSION!

The name of this unit is “Special for Princess!”—better known as “Esupuri”, where you will aim to become the greatest of idols underneath my production!

Esu: HuuUUUUH?!

Fuyume & Raika & Kanna: ……

Fuyume names the “コメツキバッタ” (kometsukibatta), “rice-pounding grasshopper” here, a nickname for the Chinese grasshopper. If you hold the legs of a Chinese grasshopper, they bounce in a way that resembles rapid bowing, or pounding rice. See a video here.

お花さん, meaning “Flower”. It’s such a cute nickname, I considered “Flower-san”, but decided ultimately to keep it as-is.

ive been through somehing similar and the BIGGEST advice i could give you is that the only person paying attention to that kind of stuff is yourself and that your biggest hater really is yourself

in my 22 years of living there are SO MANY times i have regretted not going to parties because i didnt think i looked good or i just didnt have self-confidence and now im trying to gain those memories and years back by living my life to the fullest not letting my body image stop me from having fun which i heavily regret now that i have gaied confidence in myself

also im SURE you look fucking beautiful in those clothes

sorry i yapped but this is my specialty since i struggled with my body image for majority of my life

tw weight mention n body image

thank u :( it’s just so frustrating bc i struggled for soooo long w my body image and this year i was able to lose some weight and be happy w how i looked and now i feel like i lost all of it and it’s so hard feeling like this again after being pleased with how i looked and felt for once

From Inbox...Sit up straight, school is in session...

Just getting home from work...pouring myself a glass of wine and then 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄.

Do people EVER get tired of propagating the same "narrative" about me? That I get things "dropped" in my Inbox that are fake and I just post them? It happens every.time I get an exclusive pic or pics. Every fucking time. Don't you people get tired of BEING WRONG every.time? Guess not. Well, here we go AGAIN with me forever proving idiots and haters wrong in this fandom...

The pics of Sam leaving his hotel with the mystery woman in New York were NOT "dropped" into my Inbox or DM by some random person. I knew 4 different people going to the 92y event and the Outlander Season 7 premiere in New York. 4 people who were all part of different Outlander fan groups. They each gave me info. I posted most of it. I didn't post what I wasn't given permission to post. THE PICS OF SAM AND THE WOMAN LEAVING HIS HOTEL IN NEW YORK WERE GIVEN TO ME BY ONE OF THESE 4 IDENTIFIABLE SOURCES. The source who gave me the pics is not an Anon, she is someone identifiable and KNOWN to me. That is why I knew the pics were legit, and that's why I posted them.

To PROVE this is the TRUTH, below are my DMs with her when she sent me the pics. I've blacked out her name to protect her identity from the bullies in this fandom. I've also whited out parts of the original pics she sent me because I don't want them reposted without my watermark. My watermark says "@p-redux via Anon source." I thought it was clear the source wants to remain Anon to others, BUT she is not Anon to me. I know who she is. I thought this was obvious. 🤦‍♀️

Here you go 👇

As for the pics looking photoshopped? I don't know if people are seeing shadows, or just don't want facts, or are just being assholes because its their specialty, or what. Anything that "looks" photoshopped is just the lighting or an optical illusion, or a case of severe, incurable assholery. BUT, I can ASSURE you these are real pics of real people taken by a real person who sent them to me, and I simply posted them for informational purposes. It's not that serious, folks.

Off to finish my wine and not hurt myself rolling my eyes into the back of my head. To the haters: Consider yourselves schooled...yet again.

hinakasa wip snippet - superhero x civilian

happy sunday here's a wip snippet of something i am very excited to finish soon (it's not angst..!!!!!!! a miracle!!) (it's also an attempt at humor which is... not my specialty but it's getting there i think!)

it's based on a prompt where a superhero is meeting his civilian boyfriend's family for the first time over dinner and is running late. i thought this premise was very funny, especially having yuuta being the judgemental family role (he was born to be a hater)

enjoy!

Hinata called Tsukasa, swearing to take off one of the countless heart emojis from his contact name if he got sent to voicemail.

Dialing… dialing… dialing… and then a beep of the call going through.

“Ah, hello! This is Tsukasa Suou, thank you for calling.” He sounded breathless, and Hinata distantly heard a car alarm going off. “I am unfortunately engaged with something right now, may I ask your--” An awful crunching sound cut him off which Hinata deeply hoped was not his nose breaking. “Your name? And I will call you back as soon as I am able to.”

“Honey," Hinata sighed. “Did your suit’s Caller ID break again?”

“Oh, Hinata-kun. Hi darling.” Tsukasa’s tone flipped on a dime, his smile oozing through his voice. “Yes, it did. I thought it would be more resistant to the um, battering, but it appears to need more upgrades. I’ll fix it this weekend, hopefully.”

Hinata tapped his fingers against his phone case, finding little comfort in the cracked plastic that needed to be replaced. “Do you know what time it is?”

“Well, the internal clock broke too, but don’t worry! I know dinner with your brother is at 6:30. I bought those chocolates you told me he likes, the spicy ones. And I have been mentally preparing for the past month, as you have advised. You gave a rather long list of topics not to bring up, but I have it memorized and thus I promise to deliver an outstanding first impression to your brother.”

Hinata loved Tsukasa, he really, truly did, but he could not stop the pained groan from escaping his mouth.

“Tsukasa-kun,” he said. “You are very, very, very late.”

“What?! No, but I left work on time! Darling, I-- hold on--” A minor explosion interrupted Tsukasa, and after a few more booms and the sharp crackling of flames, he resumed speaking. “I swear on my honor I was out the door on time, even a few minutes early. I haven’t been fighting that long, have I? What time is it?”

“It’s enough time that Yuuta-kun is, decidedly, not impressed with you. Or fond. Or even likely to approve of you by the end of the night,” Hinata said. “Listen, dear, honey, darling, sweetie. Yuuta-kun is going to kill you. He is going to pull you limb by limb and scrutinize you under the world’s largest microscope and make fun of you. This is inevitable, because you are just so very late.”

“Hinata-kun--”

“And I am warning you,” Hinata continued, pinching his nose as if Tsukasa could see his exasperation. “If you are not here in the next five minutes, then you won’t need to worry about Yuuta-kun. You are going to have to worry about me killing you. Not Yuuta-kun, not whatever villain of the week you’re fighting right now. Me. Me. Do you understand?”

“Yes, dear. Of course. I will be there right away, I promise.”

“Good!” Hinata cheered. “I’ll see you then. Love you lots!”

“I love you too. Goodbye, Hinata-kun.”

[egg-emperor]

One of the most interesting Twitter post Kishimoto put out was that he wasn’t entirely happy with how Frontiers story fully panned out. Considering how different the ENG and JAP scripts are that makes sense. He says he going to work to improve it in future game. I wonder if Eggman will get affected by this.

Yup and with that, now both Flynn and Kishimoto have said exactly what I've been saying but got major backlash for as fans didn't like my interpretations of Flynn's writing in English, and didn't like the ways I criticized the story and character "development" in general as I felt it wasn't handled or delved into well enough overall. It's both very vindicating and frustrating for that.

I completely agree with Kishimoto and I'm very glad he acknowledged that, unlike the fans acting like it's absolutely perfect untouchable "peak fiction" that's exempt from all criticism and that everyone that has complaints are just haters. I see a lot of issues not just with how they handled Eggman but also the plot beats and progression as a whole and other characters.

And the differences in the English and JP also makes it seem like there were very different ideas between writers on how to go about telling it in both, which makes it extremely divided and even completely changes the meanings and plot points in some scenes. They definitely need to fix and prevent that from happening again and come to an agreement of how to handle it.

As for Eggman as that's of course my main focus and specialty to comment on lol, while I'm happy my interpretation of the Maria memo and Eggman and Sage dynamic were confirmed to be the intentions, my criticisms of the parts that still feel OOC even with this in mind remains, along with how underutilized he was and just felt off and inconsistent for the first time in a game.

How they didn't go about making Eggman's reasonings for his side of the dynamic clear enough for fans to not be able to mistake it as being pure and wholesome instead of shallow, self-centered, and self praising as Flynn intended it to be, and how it was assumed the Maria thing was implying a tragic past for Eggman is a big problem. It should be absolutely blatantly clear.

I could personally see it as soon as I analyzed it closely to see that the Maria memo was coming from his usual entitled selfish egotistical perspective, and that the ways he praises Sage are shallow and also unsettling as Flynn put it, as Eggman praises her in a very self-centered and self praising way in the memos. But they didn't really go to the effort of making it especially clear.

It shouldn't have just been super clear in the Egg Memos where it's just a couple of lines of audio each. Not having any of it on screen in the actual scenes in the English version especially was a big problem. There would be a lot less misinterpretation if they'd gone out of their way to establish it in the actual scenes anywhere near as firmly, as even the memos are misunderstood too.

All the personal issues I have with Eggman's portrayal in the English version was done much better in JP. They have the same reasoning behind the Eggman and Sage dynamic but the JP handling feels much more faithful in some areas, so I prefer it overall. But the differences between the two make sense now, they have the same reasons but very different ways of showing it.

They really need to prevent the vast differences from happening again. I'm curious to see if and how it'd affect Eggman. I'd hope for his Eng and JP portrayal to be handled much more similarly. For example, make his side of the dynamic in the Egg Memos especially clear in the actual scenes. I think they could take notes from how it was handled in JP for that, while JP also further improves.

yuzu’s swap au

This has been lurking in my brain every since and I think I want to talk about it!!! I ALSO HAVE AN URGE TO DRAW SO BAD GHHRHGH but maybe the picrews and neka will help hehe

What is the Swap AU?

Basically an AU where everything is the same but Tenma and Kai have swapped roles (and personalities) aka one of the many Actress Kai AUs

But also there are things I didn’t swap swap because I thought it would be funny to keep them (but these are like anchor points to my swap au aka what i don't really change and they are just SOME of them):

Tenma still ends up joining Mankai as the Summer Troupe leader and he still will have that stage fright moment

Kai’s desire to change herself and make her bravado into True Confidence

Kai and Itaru know each other and still have that good ol’ sibling dynamic

nonotenkai are still a thing theyre still childhood friends and the roles of kai and tenma in the miscommunication equation are the same, Tenma still likes Kai even after the childhood phase.

BUUUUUT with those similarities in mind, here are the list of changes (respective to similarities listed above):

Tenma has all the personality flaws and insecurities Kai would typically hold (impending need to be ‘useful’, kai’s overworking tendencies and her overall anxiety and overthinking), he is SUPER interested in theater but after that stage fright moment, he swore off it and never gave it another chance (until Mankai)

in this au, Kai would be bolder than the typical kai who would usually double think lots of things (she does have confidence but not as much as she’d like)

Itaru being the one usually sneaking Kai out esp when she needs a breather from showbiz (default: Kai would frequent to Mankai to check up on Itaru settling in esp when Itaru’s social battery is drained in ACT 1)

In my point of tenkai childhood friends, Kai still overhears that Tenma likes Nono (the misunderstanding) and that Tenma likes Kai (a point that still stands even into the current A3 timeline) BUT BUT BUT kai this time, has feelings for tenma!! she is actively seeking out his attention and affection but Tenma chooses not to read too much into it

Kai being a playful, flirty girlie. GET YO MAN BABYGIRL!!!!

Tenma being into cosplay :) [kai screaming in the distance]

OKAY SO SWAP AU BRAINROT TIME!!!

Kai actively flirting with Tenma but she would always play it as a joke after but there would be moments where Tenma would be downright honest and would catch Kai flustered

“Practice a kiss scene with me.” Line? UNCHANGING EVEN IN SWAP AU AND ITS STILL TENMA’S LINE, kai could NEVER nevernevernevernever do it to Tenma but it is only because of Tenma’s insistence that they do it (…because he wants to help and he believes that this will help the quality of performance and kai is just dying inside from embarrassment)

I think it would be completely sweet for Kai to gift Tenma flowers after their plays and gets clamored by Natsugumi because Itsuki Kaiya is a famous teen actress ♡

Tenma who wants to be super good at acting so he asks (begs) Kai to help him and Kai is so willing to help him through. Although Kai's specialties aren't in comedy, it would be good to get some feedback from someone who is a professional :>

Everyone who keeps asking Tenma; “hey, you and Kai are dating, right?” Tenma with a straight face: No.

Kasumi who is STILL their number 1 hater and supporter, pushing their heads together just to kiss and get on with their lives but this time Kasumi is egging Kai to confess because she can't stand Kai just trying to form a cohesive thought when she wants to be honest with Tenma.

Tenma and Kai running through scripts together 💕💕💕 Something about the sheer professionalism of a thoroughly trained actor and how Kai looks so good when she’s focused and serious makes Tenma shift slightly in his seat as Kai’s trying to explain why this might be a better way to phrase that improv he thought of on the spot and building the characters together 🥺 and how they’re both trying to get the vibe right

Tenma, who is still good at fake crying. Ever since Kai discovered that, she is literally just asking him everyday: "...Are you sure you don't want to enter show business?"

Tons of tension. Weird, almost bordering sexual tension. It makes people want to leave these two alone and see what happens in the next ten minutes. Yuki cannot STAND being the 3rd wheel 8/10 times that he gets caught between these two (almost literally if circumstance pushes it).

TENMA BEING A FUCKING NERDDDD SHIT OHHHRJFHFJDJ tenma that just spends his free time rolling on gacha, playing rpgs, and cosplaying!!! OH FUCK THATS SO CUTE HRRGHHRGHHR

“No, because you see these two WORK—it’s like instinct, the chemistry is THERE, and I don’t—I just feel like I’m being baited over here, you know?” / “…And this affects that theory you were talking about how?” / “It affects the fan theory because we suspect—(goes on about the theory)“

By the end of that conversation, kai is doing research about it in her own time and raises her own point to tenma (it gets ugly bc they’re both stubborn and kai believes in the theory that contradicts what tenma talks about)

Like Tenma’s One Interest (which is Bonsai) Swap Kai has a singular interest that keeps her grounded and its crochet/knitting :D

Kai is literally that One Juniper Woods sprite where she fucking knits out hearts when she has Tenma in the brain (she also gets inspired enough to…knit him a scarf)

Tenma who is never moving on from Kai’s hand knitted scarf gift on Christmas, he uses it and he takes such good care of it (and rarely lends it to ANYONE)

Kai who is surprisingly pure and says things that could be taken in multiple ways (in contrast to OG Kai who is quite buried in filth). Tenma knows she doesn't mean it when she asks him to stay the night. Tenma, whose brain cannot TAKE IT ANYMORE, when Kai tells him with a flustered expression that she wants to do it (hold hands) but luckily since this isn't his first rodeo with Kai's words asks her to clarify what exactly it is and Tenma is more than happy to hold hands with her.

Aki who is more than happy to be Kai's wingman, he sets up opportunities for both of them. Bringing Tenma to a certain location that a hotspot for couples to date? Easy. Telling Kai that they will eat outside later, so they should meet here, in this spot, around this time. They got set up :)

Tenma that works in Hanakotoba :3 Pretty boy surrounded by many pretty flowers hehehehehe

Kai who needs a moment of quiet after really long days of filming and practice, Tenma would offer her his jacket and she puts it over her head to give her a few minutes to calm down and relax

Grhhgghrhr tenkai that are still very subtly physical. LIKE not exactly touchy but they just need each other close to feel ok. I’m talking sitting beside each other, hand brushing against each other, PINKY LINKING!!!!! , small tugs on tenma’s sleeve when kai doesn’t want him to leave just yet, or the unconscious tenma move where he gently nudges kai or guides her away from the road with his hand on her shoulder AARGGFHHFFHFHD

kai has shit sense of direction in this au

secret date nights because dating a celebrity is HARD, tenkai is who is super tight lipped about their relationship and only say enough to satiate the people

Despite the swap, I still think Kai would be the more protective out of the both of them, she has disguises whenever she goes out with Tenma LMAO like wigs and contacts at the ready to keep her hidden. she’s very careful about going out and it doesn’t help that tenma has a very eyecatching presence lol

In this swap au hehehe (to end it all off) tenma is the one who confesses :D in the default, kai is the one who ends up confessing but i think it would be a neat take to see tenma say it first LMAO

I indulged in this AU because I just needed a reason to see a flirtier Kai, that’s all.

pick a card: your life as a celebrity

pile 1 -> pile 2 -> pile 3

JOIN MY DISCORD

MASTERLIST

MY KOFI

INSTRUCTIONS: breath in, breath out and choose whatever picture that draws you in the most!

NOTE: it’s completely fine if you are attracted to more than one pile - the universe probably wants you to see some other messages. this is also general reading, not everything may resonate! enjoy!

PILE 1

you'd peacefully live your lavish life. travelling all around the world, having mansions in each favourited countries, non-stop buying branded luxury goods. you're young, rich, famous, and you use it!

people are neutral about you - some hate you, some love you. genuinely, you don't attract any special attention - that makes your life much easier.

however, you'd have lots of various dating rumours; paparazzies can't stop taking pics of you leaving some house, club or car. it'd get tiring, especially, when they don't even stop after you get married. this could cause misunderstandings between you and your spouse. i don't think your marriages would last.

parties would be your thing. especially the ones abroad. to you there's just something charming in meeting foreigners in a foreign land.

your fans would love you for your sense of freedom. you just don't care, having fun is what matters. this could become your trademark - not giving a single fuck. "my panties are flashing somebody? you're lucky to see it. i'm late to an event? well, without me the show isn't starting anyways. my hair is messy, and my makeup is all over my face? i still look stunning." - for you there is just no problem. this is your specialty, your greatest charm! and the reason why people both hate you and love you - for some you just may look a bit too reckless.

but what makes a memorable celebrity? a sprinkle of controversial personality.

celebrities with alike fame: naomi campbell, kendall jenner, lindsay lohan, lil nas x, jennifer lawrence, adriana lima.

PILE 2

ohhh, you'd be considered a bit "unhinged". you just appear different to most people - the air around you is peculiar. you probably wouldn't give any fucks about any opinions - nothing influences you - which is new to the majority. and it bothers many - they just can't stop you! they can't see you crying, they can't see you failing, their words mean nothing - you're absolutely unbothered. and that's very new in the celebrity world.

consequently, there'd be a few rumours about you doing drugs or maybe even being a part of a cult - it's funny how people can't believe that their opinions just simply don't matter to you.

but most people LOVE you. you're their idol. people want to take a picture with you, they want your autograph, they want to meet you, to see you... and they want to copy you. you could become a fashion icon, some could even try to imitate your mannerisms in daily life. but again you don't really care, you're just enjoying life.

you could have some beef with paparazzies. i see it being funny and mostly light-hearted - maybe you having silly little fights with them, maybe a few cameras being slammed to the ground. they're going to annoy you, trust me. they'd gather around your car, causing difficulties to drive. it's amusing till it happens almost every single day. therefore, some bickering could happen. but people will like it, they'd consider it funny - after all, they really enjoy your personality and everything you do and say.

your fame would be sudden and strong from the start. you'd never go out of trend - always relevant.

celebrities with alike fame: paris hilton, kim kardashian, kanye west, nicki minaj, lady gaga.

PILE 3

you'd be THE obsession. oh, and it will get exhausting.

people care to know every single aspect of your life. they'll dig out your address, your favourite meals, your allergies, the list of your friends or neighbours, the colour of your panties - anything they can.

people are obsessed with you, even your haters. they all can't deny how special your aura is - it's something that hasn't been seen in ages, it's intoxicating. you'd be assured to become a legend, your part in history is already written from the start.

i see people becoming obsessed to the point of ignoring your emotions. they could treat you as if you were "unhuman" - completely forgetting that you're a person with feelings and treating you like an alien/entertainment object. on the other hand, you'd have armies of fans that are loyal to you like you're a god.

this affect could cause intense stalking, constant articles about you, various rumours, lack of privacy, etc. even other celebrities would become obsessed with you. once you walk in - all eyes are on you, you're the centre of the world.

people would sleep outside for weeks just to meet you - it's crazy. you're constantly talked about, swooned over. if you're not strong enough - this would be a highly damaging fame, maybe even your death sentence.

celebrities with alike fame: marilyn monroe, britney spears, elvis presley, justin bieber, michael jackson.

guessing st characters fav season (the party: pt1)

mike: he's a winter bitch. he goes alll out to make snowmen and forts (snowball fights are Not his specialty, ask lucas and will.) and wears his lil mittens and scarves (sweater wheelers you will always be famous.) he loves giving and receiving presents <- love language. drinks hot cocoa year round. has those like weird patterned fuzzy socks yk the ones with the ugly plaid. omg him and nancy and holly making gingerbread cookies. mike let's his cookie soak in milk and then drinks it (he's gross)

will: summer, he hates being cold, even before the mindflayer. i think he likes swimming too and he can swim pretty well :). also listen that s3 outfit with the navy blue shirt with the red and yellow accents and his jean shorts.... top 3 gayest will byers looks. his fav drink is lemonade (OMG WHAT IF LIL MIKE WILL LUCAS AND DUSTIN HAD A LEMONADE STAND.) i hc him as someone who hates shoes and socks (same) and walks around his house barefoot. barely uses the ac, he's a electric/ceiling fan enjoyer. he also needs the fan for white noise.

el: i know a spring lover when i see one! she loves flowers and i can see her being a bee defender. (insect lover el??? beekeeper eleven hopper??) i think in later years she might pick up gardening, i wouldn't be surprised if will painted her a flower or a flower patch/field or if joyce got her a plant <3. also she's into the flowy/sun dresses and sneakers scene (leave the quirky lesbian alone) learned to make flower crowns and max braided some flowers in her hair once. will showed her honeysuckles and she loves them. (mmm honey) 100% the person to walk through the woods and try to eat every berry she finds ("el you are sitting in poison ivy", "what is poison ivy?")

lucas: cold weather haters unite! (summer lover.) he seemed so happy in s3 and it had allll his best outfits (i'm a s3 defender, you can pry lumax s3 from my cold dead hands.) his fav drink is iced sweet tea. he likes taking max on ice cream dates, also so they can say hi to steve and so max and bond with his coworker. i can imagine him buying max a floppy sunhat from the mall. like a DORK he wears sunglasses to make himself look cool but max steals them all.

dustin: ok pretentious ass "autumn" enjoyer. yes he would correct you when you say fall. i feel like he would like spring too (also an insect enjoyer), he treats groundhog day like a celebration. anyways back to fall, he's a cardigan kinda person and sweater enthusiast. mike steals his sweaters and then denies it when he gets caught. ("is that mine?" "no?????" and the sweater is literally hanging. it is too big for him.) dustin organizes the group pumpkin patch trip AND the apple orchard picking trip. more love for dustin what would they do without him

max: fall and summer for her! look me dead in my face and tell me she's NOT ordering a pumpkin spice latte. yeah that's what i thought. she loves halloween and of course she loves summer break. she doesn't like spring bc of the excessive pollen and allergies and not winter because she's used to cali heat. summer is just what she's most used to and it gives her a lot of freedom (she's not a morning person.) fall has crunchy leaves and warm fleeces and summer has warm afternoon naps and her favorite fruits. colder weather always comes with the helping of seasonal depression, good thing she has her friends <3 who will always be there for her. unrelated: she believes in the spirit of april fools. no one is safe (i thought it needed to be said)

Okay, so because Jason is my specialty, I'll talk about the tags not the main post, bc I know shit about Tim and don't get him at all.

So in death in the family, Jason doesn't really know that Sheila's his mother. What happens is - he finds his birth certificate, and his mother's name is all smeared, only the first letter of her name - S - being visible.

He then proceess to check his fathers contact book and finds three possible mothers. The result were Sandra Wu-San - Lady Shiva (which wtf Willis. How do you know a world class assasin???), Sheila Haywood, and a woman I don't remember the name of, but she's an Israeli spy (once again wtf Willis).

He goes on to track down every one of them. The spy says she was never in Gotham, Lady Shiva says she was never pregnant (under the truth serum btw), and Sheila admits she's his mother.

Now, there's a thing. Lady Shiva is obviously Asian, but neither Jason nor Bruce consider she may be not his mother, so people wonder what the hell? Does Jason look Asian? And if yes, it would be a big 'looks like Cass maybe twins thing'. Also, they are pretty much the same age, and you could even spin it to seem canon that Jason is Shiva's biological son.

If she could lie about having children under the truth serum, she may be actually his bio mom. Then we don't know why Sheila would say that she's his mother, but honestly, the fact she just straight up sold him out to Joker show's she doesn't have any maternal feelings towards him which is, you know, kinda weird, considering she had to carry him for nine months straight. Also, there's a bit about her doing illegal abortions, so she could easily get rid of pregnancy if she wanted to.

So, really, if we try hard enough, Jason and Cass could be twins even in canon. I don't get it why Tim is thrown there, but it may be that fans really like to make Tim 'not like the other girls' because let's be real, his background is goddamn boring, so he needs something special about him.

Quick edit - i accidentaly went full on Tim Drake hater so srry bout that but i can't help it

Okay, genuine question, how did the idea of Tim and Cass being like twins became so popular? They're so different in so many aspects, I couldn't have came up with that.

There's at least a two year difference between them, Tim is taller than Cass, they're of two different races, Tim's eyes are blue while Cass' are brown (though I've seen her with blue eyes too, so I can overlook that one) and not to mention their gender.

I'm just curious about how that hc came to be. Is it because there's also a popular hc of Tim being wasian? Or is it the short black hair? The fact Tim trained with Shiva, who's Cass' mother?

@vstrider pointed out that Wild Card looks kinda like a caterpillar creature... and I totally agree~!! SO, what if in Season 3, Mr. Unpredictable gets an insatiable appetite, is always tired, and molting even more frequently than usual (which is EXTREMELY frequently; how many times has General Outrage had to tell the kid to pick up his own exoskeletons as soon as he sheds them?), among other things, and Brainz realizes that all these symptoms of Wild Card’s are actually his body preparing itself for its metamorphosis-- and sure, the kid’s roughly the same age as the other Generals, but in (insert silly-sounding species name here) years, he’s just begun to go through puberty! Outrage, Brainz, and Clipper do their best to care for the little guy, even when he slips into a weeklong coma before finally cocooning himself (a state poor Wild Card may or may not be stuck in for the next few episodes).

Butterfly Wild Card, people. #SaveWOY for a chance at Butterfly Wild Card.

I admire your interest in wanting to know more about WOY’s characters. To tell you the truth, I’ve never ever ever ever had any thoughts on the subject of which you speak. The Insurgents were inspired by the A-Team, so I figured Wild Card (voiced by Dwight Schultz, who played Murdoc of the A-Team) was also an adult who shared the same goal with the rest of the team. Being totally unpredictable is WC’s specialty, but that’s not to say he has no self control. I’m not really the guy you want to ask about all that, though. Only Craig and the crew know how the characters fit into the WOY universe and whether they’d be recurring. The thing about WOY is all characters (save for Lord Hater, who might have originated from Earth) are extraterrestrials who come in all shapes and sizes.

I can say, however, that I imagined the Insurgents having a sentient van called Ivan (think the A-team van, KITT from Knight Rider, Herbie, and Speed Buggy rolled into one vehicle) who was taken to the vehicle impound planet when Lord Hater rose to power (not related to Hater’s van, BTW). The third part of my Eye on the Galaxy fan fiction even brings him up. I like to think the Insurgents would be useless without Ivan.

Also, I noticed you pointed out that Wild Card couldn’t be seen in The End of the Galaxy - I, too, already caught that. Just because you can’t see him doesn’t mean he’s not there. Other characters who didn’t appear were bound to be offscreen in some way. The Lost and Found Guy didn’t appear until after Prince Cashmere and Neckbeard spoke, the Black Cube was first seen after Sylvia said the Robomechabotatron was blown up, and Major Threat came from a different spot in the hideout when Sylvia called for him.

Anyhow, there you have it.
