also i drew this while joking around w/ @the-valiant-valkyrie

[maxthesillyy]

i never understood it when people said max got character bashed in the prequel. there was one fucked up drawing in chloe’s Nightmare and they made One of her flaws more present/clear.

if you mean you dont want to accept that your fave isn’t one hundred percent morally Correct and Good with zero flaws, then just say that.

HI HAI HOPE IM NOT TOO LATE FOR TH ASK GAME BUT ✨ your silly lil green guy. yknow the one. ulquiorra. please please tell me about him ive been spectating from afar and i need to know abt him so bad. as silly or as serious as you want, say anything, ijust wanna hear abt him from a certified Appreciator(tm). be free :]

Aaaaaag!!!!! SHAKING FOAMING AT THE MOUTH !!!!

At last I am enabled HE IS MY FUNNY LITTLE GREEN GUY AND I LOVE HIM I am honored to be chosen as a certified appreciatior ANYWAY SO UM let me just explain like. What he is rlly quick because there are so many different types of guys in the whole bleach world

you have humans, who live in the world of the living and souls (dead people) who also live in the world of the living and then you have hollows which are like corrupted souls that the soul reapers gotta defeat to get them to love on to the next life (which is in the soul society)(the soul reapers also live there)(the soul reapers are also dead people)(it’s like a whole reincarnation thing)

the hollows live in this other dimension called hueco mundo they look like this (the guy on the left- hollows are more “monster-y” looking whereas arrancars are more human looking but they still have the holes where their hearts should be-hence the term hollow)

So these guys called arrancars (that’s what ulquiorra is!!!) they’re hollows that have been modified to be kind of…like a cross between a soul reaper and hollows because they have swords (soul reaper thing) but are also hollows. Basically like. You have a bear and your like let me give that bear a gun. Like that. The main antagonist is responsible for all that for reasons™️ but that’s a whole other thing in it of itself. But yeah he’s like an an evil henchmen.

but onto greater, more important things

ok completely on a surface level his charcter design is like. 10/10

I don’t know much abt charcter design but since his colors are limited he really like stands out (it’s part of the reason why I think kny characters have such good designs because they stick to the two main color plus accent color)

He’s mostly black n white with accents with green which is just so striking and the green tear makeup is just *chefs kiss* PLUS the combination of the traditional Japanese hakufu pants combined with the almost (not rlly sure how to put it) like European tail coat kind of deal he’s got going on really is such an interesting combination of two different cultural fashions. Ichigo (the guy on the right) has kind of a similar deal going on with the pants and the more western looking tuxedo looking deal and they’re design are supposed to Parallel each other for thematic reasons but PERSONALLY I think ulquiorra does it way better . But idk Maybe I’m biased!!

And there’s his other powered up forms which are just so cool

He’s so edgy. I love him this slaps so hard I cannot deny he’s so creaturecore

ok so now. Plot stuff

so basically his whole deal is that he’s a nihilist. Throughout his appearance he’s always like oooh nothing matters I don’t care blah blah blah despite the fact that he has emo make up. He does NOT put the emotion in emo. (Which, at least my impression of emo is about wearing emotions on your sleeve. I don’t know much abt emo as like a whole but if anyone has any like critique on my definition please let me know I’d love to learn more) My man is emo in style but is like yeah whatever I don’t feel emotions I don’t have a heart I’m not human don’t think of me as a human I’m a logical emotionless creature yadayada.

it’s such an interesting design choice to me because it really highlights how…hypocritical his worldview is. As the story goes on you can see his whole nothing matters deal kind of crack, towards his finally battle we see him get angry and surprised and then (spoiler alert) love right before he dies.

And you really can’t talk about ulquiorra without talking about orihime.

orihime was kidnapped basically by orders of the main antagonist because she has powers that he needs for reasons™️. It’s kind of a long explanation why so I’ll just leave it at that. But the whole reason Orihime is there was because she loves her friends, and she goes over to the side of the enemy because she didn’t want her friends to get hurt (basically the “bad guys” were like come with us or we’ll kill your friends and she was like. Well I guess I have to go because I love my friends) which is like the complete opposite of ulquiorra because he’s all like whatever friendship love and bonds are all bull. But as he interacts with her he gets (upset?curious? Not sure of the wording) about what it means to have a heart (or a bond with another person really). I just love how as we move through the arc we see him gradually more humanized, partly as a result of orihime being all like. You’re wrong things DO matter but also because he IS human in a way.

specifically there’s a scene in his backstory one shot where orihime catches him sleeping and brings him food and it just shows that yeah maybe he’s not technically a regular guy but he gets sleepy and needs a little snack!!! He’s grumpy about it but I just love how it portrays him in such a different way than we usually get to see him. (He’s embarrassed he’s so funny. “Ooooh I take naps and eat snacks 🙄so embarrassing” He’s so silly)

As he talks to orihime throughout this arc he gets CLOSER to understanding as his whole nothing matters deal keeps getting shut down by her when he tries to convince her that nothing matters. But he really doesn’t GET it until right before his death when he realizes what “the heart” is. Because orihime showed him humanity and kindness he’s like oooohhhh I get it now. But at the last second which just is so…cries

anyway. He finally realizes what it means to care about something as he dies and it’s so tragic because this is the first time he’s ever felt anything and now he’s going to die reaching out to her. It’s probably THE most tragic anime scene I’ve ever watched it kills me literally Everytime I watch it screaming crying throwing up. You know the deal!!!

Then after that whole arc is finished the author published this art . And look at him. He’s so silly look at him

Anyway. *does jazz hands 👐 * that’s my guy!!!

!!!

Also!!! Fun facts(tm)

-Ulquiorras name was based off of Spanish architect and the castle that he lives in is based off of abstract Spanish architecture . Which I just think is really neat

-His birthday is on December 1!!!

-i just think he’s neat!!!

Anyway thank you so much for the ask I am so sorry this took forever to respond to I jus have SO many thoughts and typing on my phone takes FOREVER anyway I hope I did him justice!!!

Thinking about Papangorma.... I'm gonna throw up (In a good way)

I'm such a sucker for Hardened Characters (whether by war, by harsh environment, by their status, or all of the above) being such kind and gentle parents... To the point I have like, 2 characters who are like that... man. I just. Explodes. Blows up, even

Yes their palms are calloused, their hands stained. Horrors seen that haunts their subconscious mind. And yet, they treat children (either their own or someone elses, both work) with such gentleness, perhaps a softness they themselves never got to experience. <- (This does include Pangorma)

I I III I I NEVER SAW THIS ASK?!?!??!!?!

This is what everything is about. I could not have said it better myself. I like to imagine that softness comes from a place of “I would never want this young mind ever to be corrupted by the horrors that I have seen experienced (possibly enacted) myself. I will do everything in my power to let this young one live the life I could never live in my years.”

[pretentiouswreckingball]

I’m a bit sad that non-Spanish speakers will never understand the truly atrocious and hilarious things we consider as “shit posting” which are more like cursed images than anything else. Do they make sense? No. Do I snort with laughter ever time I see them? Absolutely.

[aspd-thoughts]

This is going to make me sound like a horrible person but. Was anyone else weirdly comforted by the increased suicide rate for people w/ ASPD when they first found out?

like, obviously it’s a tragedy, but… I was in the middle of a spiral of oh my god I might have ASPD my life is over I’m horrible when I found that out, and like. I was seriously considering killing myself, and something about the fact that even if I do kill myself, I won’t be the only person with this who has was just. It was honestly a lifesaver, just the reassurance that I’m not alone. Other people have felt this way. Idk.

[gaythreadrunner]

ohhhhh! the pain of ex friendships is sinking in. i understand everything now <- will shatter into a million pieces right here

[lixahl]

which of your ocs is most yaoiful 🤨

all of my men are yaoiful HOWEVER. this may come as a surprise. but i believe in MOST YAOIFUL OLD MAN EVER ARANE STORMRAGE SWEEP!!!!!!!

whats more yaoiful than being so devoted to a man you break out of prison and carry his warglaives because his imprisoned/dead body got stolen by evil bitches. and then doing everything in your power to revive him, then getting him revived (khadgar is there) and running full force into his arms and getting spun around. and then later on begging him to not imprison himself for eternity because he's got this stupid "the hunter is nothing without the hunt" self-sacrificial bullshit going on. and then retiring and having a kid and honeymooning on the dragon isles and ignoring every horror after bfa.

readmore because i have more yaoiful guys (honorable mentions and also for other not-wow yaoiful guys)

honorable mention for warcraft is ameres and gabrianel

(gabrianel is the not-blond one)

both of these men currently have too much time on their hands and are having loads of gay sex. very yaoiful.

actually there's also astraxia as well. currently acting as a broodfather to their partner altyvian (my husband's oc) so also having loads of gay sex SORRYYYYY

for ffxiv it's tied between my only two man ocs. sorry i don't think either of them are more yaoiful than the other, they're different kinds of yaoiful. yes they are both au ra because i like the lizard

eldegai (left) is more yaoiful in the "he's a dominant type" way and akihiko is more yaoiful in the "jesus christ this man is so submissive" way. and yes they both have canon character partners; magnai for eldegai, and hien for akihiko. there's something wrong with me.

AND FINALLY. for most yaoiful not-fan oc character. the title goes to none other than MEKO KELSI

we love yaoiful men who are women who aren't either a man or woman but still a man. he's a bimbo. he's a saint. she met her husband at a sex toy store. it died in its husband's arms to become immortal. he has a pet rat. she's a demon of pestilence. and of course, he has loads of gay sex. yay

runner up for non-fan oc is abalone though. because i love her and i love she/her gay men
