#big ol rant lmao

[snowddeong]

Already had an idk how long hour rant session with Sarah about this shit but I'm still so annoyed so part 2 lmao

It's so profoundly frustrating and discouraging how itzy continues to be mistreated in every fucking facet you can imagine for the sin of literally being successful, talented women.

They're literally div 2's bottom line but the company acts like they're doing the girls a favour by even posting about their cbs on the accs that were literally made to promote itzy. We are just now getting some semblance of tiktok freedom 5 years into their career meanwhile idols that debuted after them have their own instagrams and their juniors in the same company have more freedom on all sorts of socials. We've confirmed that div 2 flubs so many of their opportunities for who knows what fucking reason after what happened with the CK Yeji event. And most importantly everything to do with Jisu — never fucking protecting her in any way, overwork, stifling her and the other girls' creativity, not utilising her voice well and every other fucking stupid thing they've done that's definitely made what she's going through so much worse. The girls are a cash grab to that fucking company (to the point we literally first learned about the cb and tour in the same post that was announcing Jisu's diagnosis) and they're not even allowed to express any frustration or sadness over that because "that's not professional" and they'd probably lose everything they've worked so hard for.

If they look sad you're not supposed to acknowledge to it or sympathise with it or treat them as human beings because it's "funny" to joke about how they want to get off work and anyway they're idols who gives af about idols anyway right? So called midzys are more concerned about making unfunny jokes than actually getting to know these girls. Every mf will say "ot5" then turn around and straight up hating certain members. Dehumanisation has become so fucking normalised in midzyville but then mfs will act surprised that the company gets away with this very obvious exploitation and mistreatment. If you view these human beings as a product that you can say whatever tf you want about on sites that you know they frequent because "it's just a joke lol" ofc the mfs presenting them as a product are going to benefit from it 😭

Then you have fuckass bitchass shitstain mnet and their hate boner for itzy. The largest number of most viewed videos on choom, the first choom performance to get more than 50 million views that's still consistently gaining more and more views, the first mix and max vid to get 50 million that's also still gaining views and gagged the kpop space so hard that Bebe Rexah released a korean specific version of break my heart myself and performed at fucking kcon because of Ryujin and Yeji, and their MAMA 2021 being the most iconic performance of that night (to the point that mnet decided to call back to it again last year mind you). You'd think wow hey these guys get us views let's be nice to them and keep them around.... but nah, deleted their iconic fucking performance that gave their boring award show relevance, deleted their debut stage, don't invite them to choom anymore, didn't even send ryeji their trophy or record something for Yeji when she got hers and then the bullshit that went on today lmao. Like it's so fucking obvious and you have to wonder WHY ffs

I have nothing against the group that won even though some of their stans are the most disgusting scum of the earth but like surely.... the numbers did not make sense. Even if you say itzy's digital points were too high okay fine that's just affirming that mnet isn't very honest with their numbers. They deleted itzy's untouchable stage for who knows what fucking reason then uploaded it later with reset views. How tf am I supposed to believe all this was above board when we've been beating that fandom in voting CONSISTENTLY even if they mobilised fandoms to help okay fine but did they enlist the whole of stantwt or something lmao how tf was the difference that great? Why were the sns scores so fucking weird when itzy untouchable shorts have consistently more views? Why is it "cope" or being a sore loser to call foul play when there's so much pointing to it being that AND mnet has a history of rigging??? The only real answer is it's because this happened to a girl group and specifically because this happened to itzy. They released one song people didn't like and suddenly deserve every terrible that happens to them is deserved and just "midzys complaining about nothing". And when it gets to a point where even the girls seem visibly frustrated and dissapointed? "Nah they just want to go home early lol don't read too much into it don't care"

This is so long and I feel like I could go on forever but tldr I just wish better for them man 🫠 every group is unique and important in their own way but itzy are really once in a lifetime performers. I know there's no such thing as a perfect world where everything goes smoothly especially for girl groups but fuck is it too much to ask for a little respect on their names and for everyone to leave them tf alone at the bare minumum 😭 itzy is the only group under div 2 just fucking do your jobs lmaooo

[amiizuki]

it will be forever funny to me how the flashback portraits of Wittebrothers made Caleb seem like he's had packing peanuts for a brain

(this post ended up becoming quite lengthy, and so did the tags somehow, because I kinda devolved into a rant closer to the end of writing this whole thing, so bear with me here)

so we know that Philip and Caleb became orphans when both of them were still kids. after that, they ended up in Gravesfield and, to fit in with everyone else who lived there, picked up witch hunting and started thinking that witches are pure evil. Caleb knew perfectly well that he's the only family Philip's had left and that he even may be his his only friend, since, judging by the portraits, they've only ever hung out with each other and we don't know if those two ever made any other actual friends.

until one day, during a witch hunt he and Philip were both a part in (something Caleb seemed happy to do, judging by his smirk there), he met a witch – Evelyn – someone he's been taught to hate and want dead by the townsfolk. someone who, again, in his mind, should be evil.

but he just suddenly does a 180 and goes "damn, you can make fire with your hands, you're actually pretty cool"

and then a few days (?) of talking to her later, he's running off to live with her in the Demon Realm, while simultaneously not giving a single fuck about the brother he's abandoning.

(he even runs off with a smile, with a literal :D face, I fucking can't lmao)

Philip ends up seeing Caleb get dragged off through a weird portal and later follows along, thinking something like "no, my brother wouldn't just up and abandon me without saying anything. he probably got captured by that witch we saw together that one time! she probably used some demon magic to bewitch Caleb and took him through that portal to kill him or worse! I gotta go save him!". and, after spending god knows how long in that realm, searching endlessly for his missing older brother, he eventually finds him. but he also finds that Caleb is not only perfectly okay and not hurt in the slightest, he's also peacefully walking together with the same witch who "captured" him, even holding hands with her.

and when enraged Philip tries to attack Evelyn, to protect Caleb from the witch who took him from his home, from his brother, still thinking that Caleb's under her control, Caleb just... gives him a hug and goes on to introduce the witch as his new wife to him (I'm assuming that portrait is the same day as the other three, if not the same scene), also adding on top of that that they're having a child. all as if nothing happened. treating the whole thing like everything's perfectly okay and just another normal day, fully ignoring the fact that he threw his brother away with no care or thought, leaving him completely alone, a full orphan, now with zero actual family left (in TTT, during their backstory, it's said that "Caleb did his best to take care of his younger brother", meaning that either they never got adopted in Gravesfield, or whoever adopted them didn't give a shit about the two, so they still mostly had to fend for themselves), all to go smash some random 5 out of 10 witchussy he talked to, like, 3 times. no fucking wonder Philip killed him!

(btw, jokes aside, it didn't seem like he intended to kill Caleb, because in that portrait where he's ready to kill with a knife in his hand, he's facing forward, while Caleb is actually to his left. so it just looks to me like Philip was gonna try to kill Evelyn again, and Caleb either jumped in front of her to protect her and got accidentally stabbed or he attacked Philip back, to, again, protect Evelyn, and Philip ended up winning that fight. but that's just my theory)

my brother in literal christ and literal titan – why in the FUCK are you just hugging it out with a smile on your face??? you ran off while giving absolutely no warning to anyone, especially your younger brother! why do you think he's here and actively trying to attack you and your new wife? you're not even trying to address the fact that you left him! at least when Luz ran off to a different realm without warning, she had a "I'm still at the camp" cover, so Camila wouldn't worry that much about where her daughter is, and even then she still felt bad for leaving her mother and planned to go back home once summer was over. this chucklefuck, on the other hand, just permanently portaled away to the Boiling Isles, knocked up a witch and fully settled down there, walking around with a big ol' smile and no care in the world. "Philip who? never heard of him"

the only thing that would sorta make this situation seem better (as in, not make Caleb seem like an overly naive ignorant brick), in my opinion, is if they added one more portrait – after the one where he meets the witch, but before the one where he leaves. in that portrait, Caleb would look like he's trying his best to convince Philip that witches aren't actually evil, and perhaps even try to get him to go live with them in the Demon Realm, all the while Philip's looking at him with either disagreement/disappointment/disgust or just rolling his eyes and full on ignoring him, while sharpening his witch hunt tools or something. then it would look like Caleb at least tried to make his brother change his mind, like he tried to offer him a chance to go with them. but no. with the way the portraits look in the final version it just seems like Caleb was fully on-board with killing witches since he was young, even pulling his younger brother along to think the same way, Philip also thought that Caleb was perfectly fine with killing witches, but once he actually meets a real witch (assuming they've never met one before) he instantly pulls an uno reverse card and just runs off with her, without so much as telling his brother beforehand.

I'm not trying to say that "Belos should've been redeemed, because he's the victim here and Caleb is bad and it's all his fault". he still murdered his brother and went on to manipulate everyone on Boiling Isles for centuries, with his end goal being the death of all witches, while simultaneously being stuck in the loop of "denial" and "bargaining" stages of grief – repeatedly trying and failing to recreate a perfect copy of Caleb, but also killing each one that came out wrong or went against him. Belos not being redeemed in the end was the right choice (ignoring the "Belos was always le bad" from King's dad), I agree with that. frankly, if he actually got redeemed in the end, I'd probably be seething for the next 3 to 5 years, like how I did after the Diamonds' "redemptions" in SU (yes I'm still pissed about that lol). I'm just saying that, from what was shown to us, Caleb didn't seem like that good of a person either, not as bad as Belos ended up being, but still not that great. and, once again, seemingly had a raisin for a brain.

(off topic, but during Masha's retelling of Wittebane's backstory, their "sounds like big bro got a hot witch girlfriend and little bro got upset" line was so fucking cringe, it gave me a fever for 3 days the first time I watched the episode)

k, rant over, I dunno what else to add

TL;DR: I think Caleb was dumb as a brick, because, from what was shown to us in their backstory, he seemed to have run off to Demon Realm and abandon Philip without telling him anything beforehand. when Philip came to BI to look for his brother, who he assumed was under control of the witch who "took" him, since he thought his last living family member wouldn't just abandon him, and when he eventually found him, and it turned out he wasn't in any danger at all, Caleb just brushed the whole "I left you for witchussy" thing under the rug and pretended everything was and is perfectly fine, even though it clearly isn't. rip bozo

🤲Please rant to us about the Guard Dog AU

Well ok, if you say so, Anon! 👀💕

So this is me being very indulgent Menace once again, and I'm sure you'll notice a pattern with me when it comes to themes and tropes I lean towards. LMAO 😂(Also this is in the very early rough concept stage so things might get tweaked with time!)

BUT ANYWAYS, so very futuristic city!! I'm talkin' like Akira/Cyberpunk 2077/Ghost In The Shell/etc style where it's very dense, neon lights everywhere, hologram ads, advanced technology, the works.

FazCo. is in the entertainment industry, but not the kid-friendly kind. They've found that the creature pit fighting scene has been a big hit globally and wanted to cash in on the big profits. Lots of rich people like to host and sponsor these matches typically and attendees are able to place bets. So Fazco. started to develop several of their own homemade creatures to throw into the ring.

A lot of these creatures typically have one to two human handlers who represent them and are in charge of taking care of them, training them, escorting them within the venues, basically everything. It pays well enough, but there is also the very real danger of their assigned creature killing them so it's a high risk job.

These creatures vary in all shapes and sizes. (Though typically they're much, much bigger than humans.) Some are organically lab made, some are organic but have technological augmentations, others are purely robotic. As long as they're able to fight and entice a crowd, that's all that matters.

Sun and Moon are unique within this world. They're partially organic, but heavily augmented, (so kind of a cyborg type of thing) which is nothing new, but their 'brain' is completely robotic and allows them to switch between their duel A.I.s.

Fazco.'s idea for them was basically 'why not have a creature that can switch up their fighting style at a moments notice to keep the opponent on their toes?' without really thinking of the consequences of that. :) (And the only way you can tell which is which is their subtle eye change (and demeanor but eyes are the easiest). Double white for Sun, double red for Moon, and their ace up their sleeve, red and white for both aka Eclipse.)

Y/N decides to apply for the handler job. (The previous handlers all had unfortunate accidents but they don't have to know that.) They know what they're getting into and risks involved but really they're only in it for the money. They'd like to get out of their shithole of a neighborhood and being able to travel is a nice perk, so eh why not. They don't have any real self preservation so as long as they're enjoying the ride that's all that matters to them.

Cue them actually getting to know Sun and Moon over time and 'oops I've become attached and man...this life must suck for them...I'm gonna pull a Free Willy. :)' But not without numerous fights in between, lots of danger with the wrong people, near death situations, etc etc first. And Sun and Moon getting attached themselves with time and being a big ol' guard dog. (And maybe a little tiny bit of love between em cause that's the monster fucker in me talking. LMAO)😌

But yeah that's all I got!! I'm happy to see and hear y'all are so interested in this AU so far!! 💕

[blaithnne]

ok i forgot that goldie isnt canonically 5'1 on a good day so i have to restructure this ask

1) thoughts on short goldie

2) is heron short also

3) (contingent on answers 1 and 2) thoughts on scrooge and beakley both falling for tiny evil women

1) & 2)

I think the toxic yuri polycule height chart is something like this—!

They all wear heels so it’s not exact (also I whipped this up in like 5 minutes lol)

Huifen is tall, she’s a black heron after all, and though they’re not the tallest birds ever they’re still pretty long! But she looks short standing next to Beakley, because everyone does (also I undersized her a little bit in my first human drawing by accident, whoops). Goldie is a short queen LMAO, she’s not minuscule, only slightly shorter than the average person, but she looks tiny next to these two (she might be slightly shorter than I drew her here, idk, I struggled to scale her LOL). Scrooge, for the record, is around the same height as Goldie!

In terms of their builds btw, Beakley is, obviously, very muscular! Though she might seem like a tank, she’s actually very soft — big ol squishy teddy bear! Heron on the other hand is a gangly mf, long, skinny, and sharp. Goldie is sort of in between them, an hourglass build like Huifen, but with more muscle on her (not half as much as Beakley, though).

3)

Heron might not be tiny but Beakley treats her like she is, picks her up like a feral cat when she’s being too much 😌 Scrooge and Goldie only have a very slight height difference, but I think he’s very smug about it lol

Also, my funniest headcanon ever is that Beakley has a thing for bad girls, and she HATES IT. She’s so embarrassed about it and fully intends to take it to her grave. This also leads to her hating the aforementioned bad girls even more, bc she’s so frustrated with herself for liking the in the first place. So Beakley can spend 24 hours a day ranting about how much she hates someone, and be blushing the entire time. All this to say, Beakley might not technically have a leg to stand on when it comes to criticising Scrooge’s relationship, but that doesn’t stop her.

I think they’re both massive hypocrites about it, bc they wanna protect eachother despite the other really not needing the help. They’re also endlessly frustrated with eachother’s toxic Yuri partners. Beakley to a much bigger degree because she definitely has a thing for Goldie, which only makes her hate her even more. Scrooge is more annoyed by Beakley and Heron than anything else bc he just does not understand what the hell is going on there, but he’ll also occasionally be all,

In conclusion, Beakley and Scrooge being a disaster sibling duo is my favourite thing ever. Scrooge is practically immortal, nothing can take him down. Beakley is a walking tank, she could walk off a bullet. They looked at eachother and went “that idiot needs me to protect them from their own love life” and they were kind of right??

[sunni-stuff]

i love your writing so much! i am obsessed with "we meet again"... and because of that, i must simply rant!

adira has such an amazing mom who loves her so much, it makes me wanna shed a tear at times 🥺 the way simon slowly finds his place within the world of his two girls is beautiful. the last couple of paragraphs in the recent part of the series...? oh, how that made my heart throb in my chest! speaking of paragraphs, i like how you cut off sections in your fics with the chocolate border. i can't help but use it as a bookmark of sorts LOL

it's truly remarkable how dedicated you are to writing the story for us especially considering how busy college may be for you right now. thank you for sharing your work! whether you decide to write the next part or not, i just want you to know was that i very much enjoyed reading the series <3

ps. i have an idea for a ( sfw ) request / side story for simon x singlemom!reader, but perhaps i should just share it another time LMAO only if you're good with it of course!

I'm actually crying???

First, allow me ramble, I wanna say thank you for this because this shows me that im doing something right because I'm a complete perfectionist while writing? I sit on drafts for hours rereading or rewriting stuff because in my head, I'm like damn this shit ass until I just decide to post it without worry (spoiler I worry like shit)

I loosely base "We meet again" on what I would've liked in life, and that's without getting too personal. I also love happy family tropes, and Simon is such a multifaceted character that can fit anything you put him. That man deserves a happy life and goddammit. ima give it to him. 😭

The chocolate divider is something I picked out because I fucking love chocolate. I got a big ol sweet tooth.

The semester ends on the 2nd, and while I'm known for my disappearing act, I hope to be more active instead of wasting away my winter break in bed. I have things I wanna write. It just takes time for me to build out a foundation for it, especially when I have crippling perfectionism, though I'm working on trying to focus on having fun, and if you enjoy it, that means I should stop worrying LOL.

I'd love to hear about your request as long as you know I'm slower than a snail! I wanna hear everything, so please flood away!

Also, I'd love it if you picked an emoji for yourself so I can know who you are in the future 🤎

Dynamics: Part 2, <Next!>

For Apocalypse F! Mikey: Now see Uncle Tello content is great and I love it. But consider this, it’s alr everywhere AND think bout Master Michelangelo /Uncle Mi/ lowkey unspoken Dad!Mikey supremacy ✨👀 think bout uncle Mi being the warm/comforting/ steadying presence that Cj clung to when Leo and April are stuck being the sole two pillars of leadership for the entirely of sentient life on earth and Donnie is off doing his mad scientist things(No hate to D but we know our boi has low empathy and tends to get hyper fixated to the point he ignores everyone. Not that he wouldn’t absolutely try for Junior cuz he would but ya know what I mean) which leaves the Mikey cuz our poor Raphie and Casey Sr died early.

Like Cmon guys hear me out Mike alr has Dr feelings and his ole mediator shtick. you can’t tell me that as he grew and matured it didn’t not grew stronger. Plus he defo Leaned into the whole mediator thing esp with the apocalypse cuz someone defo needed to be the calm mediator in the chaos that was the kraang. Plus he was ALR the most mentally/emotionally stable out of all the fam and a child in a chaotic environment (cough the apocalypse cough) is gonna unconsciously gravitate towards that. And mikey being mikey is then absolutely gonna white knuckle his “I’m emotionally healthy” even more cuz we got a kid now. We gotta make sure he grows up with SMTH.

Plus I like to think everyone had diff roles in raising Cj. Eg: Cj spends time with tello if he wants to hang out and blow shit up or wants to brainstorm tangible solutions. but if he needs/wants emotional support or emotional safety he goes to Mikey and if he wants all of the above plus advice in general it’s Leo and Comander April lmao (but 7/10 times it’s Leo). Side note: Before Raph died he and mikey used to tag team M’s role and April’s role was formerly Cassandra’s but welp we all know what happened 😭. Also I just wanna make it clear that these roles weren’t always hard and fast rule. It’s just generally the common status quo but was still subject to change depending on the circumstances cuz ppl are ppl and ppl are complex. Like if Cj was feeling particularly scared for Dee or April’s mortality I can guarantee he glomped them. And they let him.

Edit: In any case, their dynamic is basically all round calm, slow and cozy vibes. Cuz like I said, Mikey was acting as Cj’s living sentient equivalent of a warm, weighted blanket. Plus mystic overuse/cursed aging gave Mikey a lot of chronic fatigue and plus Mi leaning hard into the whole mediator thing rlly made him mellow out esp when he had to be responsible for a kid. So most of their hanging out was either sitting around talking about their day, making up stories bout random objects they found like ‘I bet that cup has a chip in cuz an alligator got it’ ,Cj ranting, mystic training, lots and lots of snuggles or (big shocker I know) Mikey reading to Cj (don’t Judge Cj, he finds Uncle’s Mi voice calming. And as tor Mikey, options are limited when you’re old, physically frail and in an apocalypse) or them reading whatever they can find in comfy silence with the occasional comment of ‘man this character is so stupid’ and ‘I know right!’ Or ‘im pretty sure this accident report is faked.’ Also In the earlier days when resources weren’t so scarce and Mikey had more energy they used to draw on the walls tgt using chalk but well.. stuff like that don’t last very long in the apocalypse.

.

For Past/present time: Once Cj starts to properly distinguish between future and present and feels a little more ready to start properly interacting with P!fam. He starts to build a stable relationship with Mikey. their dynamic is one of more equal standing cuz of the lack of age difference aka the big theme for this dynamic is all abt growing up tgt. This creates a more free and unrestrained dynamic where both feel more encouraged/safe to try new things cuz they don’t have to worry bout any hovering from any older siblings (sorry Leo he tries but even he can’t fully escape the big brother instincts even towards Case. Which is hilarious cuz Cj is the most self sufficient out of everyone XD ) and cuz they don’t have to worry bout looking stupid in front said older siblings if they fail/ being coddled if they fail. Initially it was a very big whiplash for Casey to adjust to the fact that someone he used to look for answers/ be a pillar was just as clueless as he was AND the fact he could freely argue back with said someone due to the lack of age difference.

But once both parties settled in, they have alot of fun just being kids and messing around. Honestly their dynamic is adorable. With Mikey’s more adventurous and more hopeful personality helping Cj start to relax a little more and start acting more like the 15 year old he is. And Cj’s more serious and sensible mindset helps Mikey become a little more thoughtful/cautious as he’s more open to Cj’s criticism cuz it feels alot less condescending than the rest of the fam due to the age similarity.

This dynamic also plays a part in Cj’s adjustment to the past. Due to said adventurous behaviour, Mike always wants to show Cj new things. And his emotionally intuitive nature helps him pick up when Cj is uncomfortable but doesn’t always feel comfortable saying it or can just generally quickly pick up the warning signs of a trigger. So after some trial and error Mikey gets pretty good at knowing when to push and pull Case out of his comfort zone or just out right cancel an outing cuz Dr feelings can sense the ensuing panic attack/ PTSD triggers. Which Casey rlly appreciates. On the flip side, Cj is the biggest advocate (second to Leo) for letting Mikey do his thing cuz he knows what Mikey is capable off and isn’t blinded with older sibling instincts. Which Mikey greatly appreciates. We stan mutually supportive siblings.

And as the youngest, they both bond (mostly Miguel talks, Cj listens oh how the tables turn) over how frustrating it is to see the rest of their family (for Cj it’s him using his experience with F!Fam to relate to P!Mikey cuz the P!Fam don’t rlly baby Casey the same way/the obvious extent they do for Miguel. For Mikey, it’s more they water down info either intentionally/unintentionally or try to stop him from doing stuff cuz they want to protect him. And for Cj, it’s more them trying to be extra subtly careful of his sore spots. Like Legit cuz of Cj, everyone at some point had independently googled ‘how to care for war-torn ptsd riddled relative’ and ‘how to help someone with material insecurity issues’ or ‘how to support someone going thru bereavement’. For once it wasn’t only Mike reading psych stuff lmao) trying to water things down for them like dums dums XD.

They also tag team the rest of their family with the combined powers of their puppy dog eyes and shared status as “baby’s of the family” to get out of trouble/get what they want like the gremlins they are 😂. Generally when hanging out they’re either doing things action driven stuff (a stark contrast to F!Mikey and Cj. Cuz P!Mikey is younger, less traumatised and hasn’t been peepawed) like graffiti (Mikey sprays full on masterpieces and Cj loves spraying colourful doodles cuz he’s delighted to play with all sorts of bright colours and see the pretty art Anglo makes that Cj didn’t have the luxuary of seeing in the apocalypse, so despite the huge skill gap, which is rapidly becoming smaller, they still have fun tgt), skateboarding, playing video games, parkour or Mikey kidnapping Cj to show/get him to try smth he didn’t get to do in the apocalypse, *cough the occasional arson cough* Like I said they’re awesome lmao

On a side note: both Cj and Mikey are very happy to have a cool brother/friend who is the same age as them. For Cj it’s cuz fellow kids were very rare back in his time. Meaning the kids that were round him were either much older or much younger so same age friends is very much a novel experience lmao. As for Mikey, although he does call Cj baby brother( he doesn’t actually enforce that unless in certain situations like Cj in distress or trying to get Cj to do Miguel’s part of chores lmao) most of the time he’s happy to not be alone in his age grp of family/friends cuz it can get a little lonely sometimes. Raph, April and Casey have each other, Donnie and Leo have each other and now Mikey and Cj have each other! Yaayyy

[mellohiizz]

Is there an egg critter?? If so Wemmbu definitely carries little egg creature around with him EVERYWHERE, sometimes you’ll see his head pop up from inside wemmbu’s bag or armor. He’s emotional support little guy where Egg is his emotional support guy. When he’s conflicted or needs to rant about something he takes out little egg creature and starts ranting lol

Also think about a Theo critter…. The moment someone looks a parrot wrong two critters just start attacking them LMAO

no ur right wemmbu definitely carries the egg critter around everywhere. he probably makes fun of him for being "ugly" with his one big ol eye, but he actually finds him cute.

he probably just tosses him on himself and let's the critter settle down on him anywhere he wants and just goes about his day.

"uhhhh.... whatchu got there?" "an egg."

sorry i wanted to make that reference it popped in my mind...

ALSO HELLO THEO CRITTER.... the moment someone looks at parrot wrong or isn't nice to him, it's over. they have a tiny creature attacking them and pecking at them. parrot's own little attack critter. i can imagine parrot catching the critter mid air and being like. "yeah sorry he's protective don't mind him. he does bite through"

wait theo with parrot critter... he'd also carry him around, i feel like. and let him perch on himself... if anyone tries touching the critter, theo is immediately in the defensive mode... protective ass idiot

ok haha ~ i just need to take a moment to share some true appreciation for the evolution of the bfs and their dynamic between one another. like even tho it takes catra years to admit that the understanding & acceptance of friendship & love are literally all she's ever wanted (but has been scared to let herself feel for some time for fear of losing it again honestly), i don't think it takes her very long to enjoy having it. even if it consists of bow teasing her all throughout "shot in the dark" or glimmer smackin her with a big ol' cheek smooch out of thanks. (side note: love that glimmer says "catra saved the day!" right before she does it cause after 4 seasons of tryna be the villain, catra even saves the day at the end too)

even perfuma sees catra actually isn't a bad person, and that's after initially resisting accepting her cause of knowing how she treated scorpia. but all it takes is catra's feeble attempt at sorta kinda tryna bond w her, simply by offering a hopeful/positive remark about chipped scorpia and perfuma's friendship w her that i doubt she ever woulda expected to come out of catra's mouth tbh. so then yeah, she says to catra in s5e10: "it's hard keeping your heart open, it makes you vulnerable.. but it doesn't make you weak" like tbh tho why couldn't someone have said this to catra in s1 lol the gurl's needed to understand that for so long and guess why she never could before oh wait, it's cause of things sw said to her and how she treated her since childhood haaa but i'll digress on that..

cause this is meant to be an uplifting share lol. cause yeah, tbh i think in the season 2 episode "the ties that bind" the dynamic between catra, glimmer, and bow is already absolute fucking gold dude lol like bow and glimmer tryna find entrapta and ending up taking catra hostage instead? and how she just uses it as an opportunity to mess w them till she gets bored and signals scorpia w her force captain badge? i mean, when you realize that's all catra had to do to get found the whole time... hahah c'mon dude. these three were destined to bug tf out of each other for life but in the best possible way lol~

and i love it. esp the fact that in that last still w glimmer hugging catra, catra actually - while initially taken aback as she always is w physical contact - only takes a couple seconds this time to relax into it. allows herself to be embraced w love and appreciation and then even returns it. like tf lol it's so sweet. i think it's the only other person aside from adora we see her manage to be comfortable enough w to do that during the course of the show (bow joins in on the hug after a few secs too and catra's still smiling softly, like too cute tho tf) and it's just amazing. the development, the evolution, the progress, the change - things that, unfortunately, aren't really being celebrated as much these days as i'd love to see. but ik there are so many ppl out there like me too, who just knowing those kinda things are possible means so much to. and ur my kinda people <3

~ps i honestly never intended to make the caption for this cute lil collage so long but if you're familiar w me and my spop rants at all by now, i bet ur not surprised that i did lmao oh and gold stars to everyone who actually read to the end here omg why can't i stop, and why haven't u?? lol

//JLI COLLEGE AU PT. 1

Here goes my first ramblings about the JLI.

They are all in college btw! Well, university technically, but uni and college are the same in the United States anyway. They go to Gotham State University btw!

Starting with good ol’ BOOSTER!!

His major is gonna be in Media Communications!! Mainly because in the comics he is such a big sucker for self advertising and literally anything to do with socializing and/or public relations!

He’s also the star quarterback for the university’s football team! Booster and Guy r frat boys together,,

Apparently GSU’s football team is called the FUCKIN Gotham Knights in canon??

Booster roomies with Ted too (haha “and they were roommates”)!! I’ll talk more about these two when I get to Ted’s part.

TED KORD

I feel like Teddy would major in MET (Mechanical Engineering Technology)!! It’s not hands on as regular mech engineering as it mainly focuses on development n testing w manufacturing support and it’s kinda right up Ted’s alley because of that

Back to Booster and Ted being roommates! They are both juniors in college with Ted being older as his birthday is May 10th while Booster’s is December 29th.

Booster bitching about Ted staying up all night during midterms and having his desktop brightness maxed out while he’s trying to sleep, or ranting to Guy whenever Ted forgets to take care of himself and makes an absolute mess in their dorm n leaving Booster to clean it up for him (he complains but he actually likes taking care of Ted lmao)

Or more domestic interactions,, like Booster and Ted binge watching shitty comedies (or those REAL garbage high school musical types) and getting drunk off their ass while munching on some leftover pizza n passing out all tangled up in the living room.

My friend and I were on discord call yesterday and we were discussing the JLI BOYBAND stuff. He said that Booster would constantly have to find a sub in for drums because Ted sometimes ends up getting swamped with work from his major but would end up placing the band on hiatus because he doesn’t wanna perform without Ted.

Whenever they have their petty arguments and ignore each other I’d like to think Booster crashes over at Scott’s place until Barda kicks him out for staying too long and forces him to make up w Ted,,

Tbh I can’t wait to draw more of this AU,,

Have some pics of casual boostle also!

Why are the Brain Things not clear-cut and obvious aoishaodhsd

( Silly goofy rant under the cut about the possibility, but definitely not absolutely having DID )

Like. DID is a somewhat-rare condition (less rare than it's made out to be according to my research) with a big ol' spectrum and I experience some of the effects but they could easily be chalked up to something else. Because that's a thing.

For example:

Do I get memory gaps? Minor ones. They're not forgetfulness.

Am I referred to as "This Arian" or "That Arian" sometimes? absolutely.

Do I stare in the mirror and sometimes recognise myself and sometimes not? Absolutely.

Do I sometimes feel like there's something uncomfortably incorrect about having my first name and almost feel as if I want to go by another, but sometimes it's also perfectly fine?

Also yes.

Have I had past childhood trauma?

Undoubtedly.

Do my moods swing? Most definitely.

Have people commented sometimes I have different personalities, referring to me as "Tired Arian" or "Disassociative Arian"? Yeppers.

Do I also have minor anxiety, headaches and completely lose track of time?

Nod nod!

Does my accent sometimes shift, and my handwriting change? Yeppers. But it does that often, so much so that I have to actually mentally focus on not doing everything differently lmao

But there's... no obvious difference to me. No,,, super big difference between me and one of my "other personalities" aside from going completely blank and just... lacking emotions.

,,, And conflicting thoughts. And my triggers change.

Why does everything have to be so confusing lmao /silly /lh

jupiter family media taste hcs

this is stupid but idrc. my blog.

David listens to like, classic 90s rock. Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins - that whole lot. He also really likes classic, OG 80s metal (metallica, judas priest, dio, etc.). He developed his music taste from 95 to 99 and never really got into stuff after that. Hes a grumpy old man about his music and will never stray from his ol reliable stack of dusty CDs. Where he's a grandpa about his music though, this man will watch basically any movie that comes out and say "that was pretty good" in his opinion cinema peaked with 2001 a Space Odyssey and Saving Private Ryan. Hal tried to show him Akira or Ghost in the Shell and he got wayyyyyy confused. He doesn't really watch TV other than blankly staring at history channel and animal planet "documentaries" and manly man reality TV shows when there's nothing better to do

Hal has a really eclectic collection of music that is constantly changing. However the most common thread of music he likes is 80s New Wave and synth - The Smiths, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Joy Division, Duran Duran. That kinda stuff. However his playlist went on to be full of vocaloid songs, neo-synthwave, break core and he got into more experimental stuff as he got older (even then he never fully dug deep, just started listening to Bjork and Kate Bush yk?) He also loves soundtracks and *loves* lofi hip hop. We already basically know Hal's taste in movies/tv so instead im gonna say his favorite anime movie is Akira, his favorite non-anime movie is Brazil and if you ask him his favorite anime he'll go on and on and on about a super obscure mecha anime from the 80s. I think hes a massive cinephile and huge nerd about his movies and shows but it's literally only for anime and sci fi and occasionally action stuff. Ask him about the complexities of Apocalypse Now or the symbolism in Blue Velvet and he'll just give you a blank stare.

Sunny ended up with like. The weirdest combination of her parents tastes. She LOVESSSSS vocaloid and LOVESSSS anime but in a tweenager in the mid 2010s way you know. This girl was in the Black Butler, Attack on Titan, Fairy Tale, Soul Eater TRENCHES. She also got into a lot of alt music but it was. you know. Fall Out Boy and Panic at the Disco and baby's first alt band stuff. What a crazy lil gal.

Raiden was a nu-metal kid big time. He was always bumping Korn and Slipknot and System of a Down. He was also really into 90s industrial like Rammstein, Nine Inch Nails, and KMFDM. He kinda grew out of this but not really, just mellowed out and got into more 'mainstream' alt like Radiohead and Elliot Smith. As we know, Raiden is a canonical filmbro (getting into fights with random women about pointless details in movies). I think he lovessssss neo noir and crime thrillers. Anything dark and gritty he just adores. Taxi Driver, Fight Club, Fallen Angels, Clockwork Orange, Crash, Prisoners <- whatevere this genre is he just eats that shit up. Hes a total snob, but not like. In a french film school way in a over 500 entries on letterboxd way. He's subscribed to like evry major movie review channel and it's impossible to take him out to any kinoplex because he just starts ranting on the state of modern cinema. He still maintains this snobbery and its only gotten worse lmao

You ever just- say words? Yeah me neither.

Actually wait that's a lie. I say words ALL the time... Well hold on- it's more like a 50/50 split of me either being completely quiet to the point of me not even being there or unnecessarily going in-depth about a topic like nobody else cares about.

I think this POST is proof of my ranting skills.

Aren't I talented??

Hmm I don't think that counts as a talent but whatever, talent is in the eye of the beholder and what not, that's NOT the saying but screw it- I'm MAKING that the saying now. I'll Patent it, wait no you don't Patent sayings you like copyright it.

Tic Tac Toe: GO! (I'm X and you're O)

XOO

XXO

OXO

Ahwwww rip, well good game to you!

What does "Good Game" actually mean? I'm assuming it doesn't refer to the game itself being good, it's probably like "you played a good game" or something like that.

Okay I've definitely reached the point where this being a word salad rant is the point of this post and I'm running out of things to say, it's like half past midnight and I'm procrastinating things rn, WHY am I laying here writing this to probably like 4 notes at best. Actually wait I don't really CARE about the notes, as long as I get my brain soup served on your metaphorical tray I'm content. not Content but con-TENT, big difference.

Alright I should be good for now, this post has served it's purpose, I'll make an actually normal post sometime between now and the next 2 years, hopefully something closer to the former.

10...9....8....7....6....5.....4......3....3....2....1....3.....1......0!!!!!!

Why did I make that countdown? I think I was gonna end it at that point but I just- didn't do that. Damn.

Boom experiment time, if you read this leave a message saying "Slay :SparkleEmoji:" I wanna see if somebody actually has the time and energy to listen to the ramblings of some Tumblr user they don't and probably will never know in real life.

If u count the amount of words in this post I get a big ol smooch.

(Lmao I'm editing this rn and I realized I said "I" instead of "u" But honestly that's funnier.)

Ship names are kinda funny, I think the humor of combining two different words and passing that off as a pun is pretty funny but for it to be taken seriously is COMICAL. I did not mean to make that word capital but the autocorrect on my phone decided that's what needed to be done. I won't question it I guess.

Okay goodnigh- wait no that's not what I say here lmao. Good BYE I mean.

:))))))))))))):

^ does this read as a smile or a frown at first glance?

Okaiiiiiii CYA!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ohemgeeejay]

Big ol’ emotional rant about Gravity Falls! Read at your discretion.

Also some Jay lore, if you’re one of my mutuals who would actually care lmao

Gravity Falls regaining immense popularity at this particular moment in time is so special to me (and my sister also, I guess 🙄). It’s come back at such a pivotal moment in my life, and it’s making me very sentimental. Gravity Falls shaped my childhood. It heavily influenced the person I would become, the person I am now. It is such a core part of my life.

I remember doing closet cosplays of Dipper and Mabel with my sister, and making a “Journal” of our own. Like, that show was the most significant piece of media that my sister and I were able to bond over. We always had very different interests and personalities, but Gravity Falls was something we both loved. I liked the narrative, the plot devices, the characterization, the coding and foreshadowing placed throughout the show. She liked the stories, the characters, the animation, and the supernatural, sci-fi elements. We both loved the humour, and the dynamics between different characters.

Dipper and Mabel are such special characters because they are such an honest, faithful representation of a close sibling relationship. Seeing them on the TV was like seeing a reflection of ourselves, for my sister and myself. Especially coming from two kids with a very unconventional familial structure. While the Pines family is not a mirror image of my family, finally seeing something different from the classic nuclear family was so important for us.

Now we’re 18, and we’re starting post secondary school at different institutions. Even after an entire decade, Gravity Falls is still something we can bond over, can see ourselves in.

We still joke about how similar we are to Dipper and Mabel. I’m going to university, doing a double major program, and aiming to study abroad during my undergrad. My sister is going to college, and she’s still on the fence about what specific field she wants to pursue; she has so many varied interests that it’s hard for her to settle on just one. (I’ll be proud of her no matter what she chooses to do, I just hope she’ll be able to put her creative mind to use.)

Gravity Falls continues to shape the way she and I connect with each other, and the world at large. Despite how nerve wracking it is to be stumbling blindly into this new chapter of life, we go forward with the lessons this show has imparted on us. The relationship between Dipper and Mabel reflected us as children, and now as young adults, it reassures us in our own. If the mystery twins could survive the apocalypse, we can survive higher education— as long as we have each other’s backs.

I fear I have no real point in writing and posting this, I guess I just wanted to share my personal connection with this show. It gives me this strange sense of confidence in moving forward with life, seeing the resurgence of a community surrounding a programme that planted the seeds of the person I’ve become. I’m not sure.

If you made it this far, thanks for putting in the effort to decipher my ramblings. I hope it was coherent.
