I stand by my claim that the best and funniest way for Christmas to exist in Ninjago is by being introduced by another realm. I'm serious. Christians love sharing their holiday (or forcing it on others just a bit) so if there was a realm with something resembling Christianity they'd popularize that shit within the first year of the Merge.
#listen man. it's the first year of the merge. everything's in total chaos. governments are freaking out.#so what do the christian/christian-adjacent people do? they brighten everything up with some christmas cheer!#and even though the religion itself doesn't gain much traction everyone's just happy to celebrate and have a good time#cuz things have been scary and dark for a while#idk man it's just fun#cuz I'm a firm believer that Christmas did NOT exist in Ninjago previously#despite what Kai on drugs and that one cop said#but I can have my cake and eat it too#ninjago#christmas#ninjago dr#dragons rising

Okay, hear me out. Josh and Tommy.
Sometime down the line Buck and Tommy break up amicably and stay friends and buddie happens. Buck feels kinda guilty though, partially because he feels like he might've unintentionally led Tommy on and partially because every time they talk he ends up mentioning Eddie. And Tommy is still single.
So, this rather needless guilt is just sitting in the back of Buck’s mind. And then one night, he ends up over at Maddie and Chim’s for drinks or whatever and Josh happens to be there. Josh is sipping wine and bemoaning how single he is.
And Buck gets an idea.
Buck: Hey, Josh, how’d you like to date a hot, charming firefighter?
Josh: How is that even a question?
Of course, Buck sets them up, and to everyone's delight it goes rather well! They have a similar sense of humor, full of snark and wit, so the banter is Level 100. Josh likes that Tommy is gentleman, picking him up, driving, picking up the check. Josh knows he can take care of himself, but it's nice, to feel a little special sometimes. To have some attention. And if how Tommy went about asking Buck out was anything to go by, Tommy likes treating!
A perfect match, if Buck does say so himself (and he does).
#9-1-1#911 abc#Tommy Kinard#Josh Russo#Evan Buck Buckley#Evan Buckley#buddie#Eddie Diaz#JoshTommy#Jommy#Tosh#???#hm these all kinda suck as shipnames#I've wanted Josh to have a good boyfriend for ages#(it always kinda bothered me that the only time we saw him date was when he got beat up)#and I want good things for Tommy too#so this is how I can have my cake and eat it too

I woke up and was haunted by visions aka Mlp redesign/rewrite ideas yayyyy :3
#Wanted rarity to be reminiscent of her beta design#And in general needed more coherent color coding or I’d die bc it’s always drove me nuts they are one color off from being the rainbow#And that rarity and twi were Both Purple ?? But also rarity sometimes was white but yeah no that’s dupid so boom indigo and violet#Have the cake and eat it too they can both be purple but not disrupt the rainbow theme#Plus spike actually part of the cast and isn’t just The Boy One#Might play around w other characters bc I’ve been rattling a Mlp rewrite in my head for ages but it’s always just kinda bounced around#Also I deffff wanna take a crack at discord I need him to either be creepy asf or look like a Lisa Frank artwork#I like the thought instead of being really colorful to show chaos he’s more dull? To contrast that technically in Mlp color is just normal#So a chaotic being would NOT be colorful?#But also I’d love to play with color palettes soooo#Maybe he can have a reformed and evil form so he gets color after he reforms?👀 once again having my cake and eating it too shrugs#Anyway tag time yayyyy#mlp#mlp fim#mlp friendship is magic#mlp rw au#mlp redesign#my litte pony#my little pony redesign#my little pony friendship is magic#twilight sparkle#spike mlp#rarity mlp#pinkie pie#apple jack#fluttershy#rainbow dash#twilight mlp#fluttershy mlp#Mlp rw

Shoutout to this draft I made a couple hours ago when I suddenly had an epiphany for how I could fix a part of my story and I was so excited that the only way I could express it is to write whatever this is but I couldn’t post it because I didn’t have internet
also it got marked as mature for some reason
#mood honestly#OHHH OHH. WA#there is pure happiness behind those words#I don’t know if I’ll keep the idea that I came up with but it’s so much better than what I had before#ties up loose ends while also keeping it vague like I wanted mmmm#and the ending isn’t super depressing now!!! sort of!!!#it is Not final so I won’t yap about it just yet but#I think I might be able to give gourdie a somewhat happy ending….that is all I wanted…..yes…..#cause like damn at first she was just miserable by the end with no happiness in sight. which didn’t really match the rest of the story#cause it’s more so lighthearted even when there’s like. death and stuff#like. bad shit happens but it’s not an emotionally charged angsty story#if people do find it sad despite the jokey tone then all the better because that means I can have my cake and eat it too#but my point is simply that Gourdie’s ending did NOT match up with anything else#she was just left completely depressed by the end#BUT I CAN FIX IT. I THINK. STILL WORKINH IT OUT IN MY MIND#TRYING TO MAKE SURE IT WOULDNT RETCON ANYTHING PREVIOUSLY ESTABLISHED#perhaps it makes the ending a bit less impactful but who tf thinks I’m going for impact!!!#gourdie gets to mysteriously disappear too. as a treat.#and it also plugs that plot hole…yes….good…..#I’m just rambling at this point hey guys how ya doin#pdbc#not a pikmin post#more pdbc posts are coming cause I spent like 4 hours today writing#by that I mean like. 4 hours of just trying to fix the ending. but I kinda did it soooo#point is I rarely have scripts for certain sections and I now have a script for a sliver of a section so that’s a win#this is a huge wall of text uhhhh#I’ve been yapping about pdbc an unhealthy amount lately and I’ll never stop#my friend wants to know the lore as well so I’ll have to find a way to explain it all to her#< it’ll be easier for her to understand actually cause of reasons#anyway I’ll shut up now bye bye

I'm having thoughts about "Httyd: The Hidden World" and how incredibly disappointed I feel about it, and how I hate that.
Specifically, how I hate the fact I can't simply enjoy it. I feel envious every time I see someone praise the movie and show genuine love for it, meanwhile I sit here looking at it with utter disappointment and finding it hard to think it as canon.
And I tried to enjoy it, I really did.
I only watched it much recently, not when it came out, with not much memory of the 2 previous movies, and yet I sat there confused and in utter shock of the plot. I can't just sit here and ignore all the worldbuilding it broke, all the morals they fought for in the previous movies that got completely thrown out of the window. And this isn't even including the series (which I am now also watching bc I never got the chance to finish them), the more episodes I watched, the more the 3rd movie just became worse to me with how many things it just threw away.
But again, without the series, it still just doesn't sit right with me.
And I'm not gonna go on a rant about why, bc I think that deserves to be it's own post, or else this one would be way too long for me to type out coherently, I dont wanna focus on that rn (feel free to ask tho I guess).
I watched it with my dad, who was the one who introduced httyd to me (or well, it was one of the random movies that came out at the time that he had us watch since he knew me and my sis liked animated stuff), and he has no recollection of the older movies, and even HE felt put off by it. It just felt so....empty?
Idk
People can enjoy it, I dont wanna take that away from them, but it just sucks. I hate how this movie is the canon for it, how I'll have to sit here and accept that this is how it ended, (imma ignore the future series thank u very much), that not everyone will agree with me that this movie isn't canon and that we can move past it, which they shouldn't, people deserve to have their own opinions ofc. But that I, out of my own stupid will and stubbornness of not being able to move past it, will just sit here in this deep and dark hole of disappointment and no matter how much I claw my fingers on it's walls I wont ever escape to the top of the light.
There are stuff I genuinely enjoy about this movie tho, how they introduced hiccstrid kids, the cute chemistry between them and the lovely flashbacks between Hiccup and his dad. There were some moments I genuinely luaghed at and still do. But it's all attached to a bigger and broken plotline with such disappointing conclusions (take a sip every time I say disappointing).
And yes, there is the "ignore canon choose fanon" line, in which I do follow alot. But here, for some reason, I have such a hard time doing so :(
So yeah, I hate that I can't enjoy the 3rd movie. I hate that I live in constant disappointment for it and there wont be anything I can do about it bc that's how it is, how it ended, the canon.
I'm not here for an argument tho. If you like the movie, than great! Go enjoy it! I'm not stopping you, I'm not trying to invalidate that and sorry if I did come off that way. I personally just have alot of gripes with it and feel kinda alone about it
Just block and move on if this bothers you, I dont wanna upset anyone with this, just need a let out of my frustrations
#i dont often talk about my deep deep feelings over a hyperfixation#I'm still often embarrassed about it#the only one so far is fnaf but that has became my career at this point /hj#but this has been eating me up ever since i started to go back to httyd#i have so many other thoughts about it#and i might make more rants about it too bc i have THOUGHT and OPINIONS that has been eating me alive#and no one to genuinely talk to about it#so imma just scream into the damn void so i can relief the burden of my overtaking mind#httyd#httyd the hidden world#httyd 3#rant#httyd 3 criticism#cake talks

one of Thee funniest tv tropes is "group of people (better if they're not friends) wake up in the same area after being blackout drunk, with it being Wildly obvious that some crazy shit went down & they have to puzzle it out / fix their mess without anyone knowing"
#psych is KILLING it w/ s6ep2 rn#i cant even attempt to eat my tiny cake im cackling too much#especially since its shawn/gus + lassie + woody LIKE CMONNNNNNN#THAT IS SUCH A KILLER GROUP FOR THIS#and its So fucking funny so far already....#the 'woody & lassie slept together' joke... i wheezed! they did it Well ngl#but man. im 7 minutes in and its already my favorite episode#and here i was Attached to the cinnamon festival ep....#so much can happen in 24 hours </3#absolutely unprompted#anyway absolutely iconic quartet of characters i didnt know i needed it but im so glad i have it#the four of them trying to keep their cool in the autopsy room... asdkandjkafkjan TOP TIER#fishtank gun my beloved#one day i hope to write this trope. i hope i do it well#i have many ocs it could work soooooo fucking perfectly with#the idiot squad especially....#and many media-based characters as well!#honestly this trope can work with anyone. well now that i think about.... the less 'on brand' it is the funnier#like the wh crew? who cares if puppets cant get drunk. that shit'd be hilarious#i just know they'd be so fucking insane about it. the weirdest blackout shenanigans ever...

Things Beacon Students are No Longer Allowed To Do: Rule 55
55. The situation with Mr Pine is…unusual…and classified. What you need to know is that Headmaster Ozpin will occasionally have to undergo treatment for an injury he received protecting the school. Due to Mr Pine’s semblance, when this occurs, he can connect with the Headmaster and relay any relevant instructions. However, Mr Pine is still a student, regardless of his role in Beacon’s administration. To clarify, unless Ozpin manifests himself, Mr Pine doesn’t have any authority over students or faculty and is banned from ordering people around. (Glynda, is this really necessary? I know it’s a strange situation, but I think you all have the sense to deal with this appropriately. - Ozpin) (…you need to spend more time on campus, sir. - Prof. Goodwitch)
55 a. Mr Pine is not allowed to do Ozpin impressions to get himself or students out of punishments. (…I stand corrected. In my defense, I assumed you’d be able to tell the difference between me and Oscar. - Ozpin) (Told you so. Sir. - Prof. Goodwitch) (Look, it’s not our fault he perfectly mimicked you, the little shit is a natural actor! - Prof. Branwen) (Qrow, you’ve known me for decades. Weren’t you the least bit suspicious why I was getting Ms Rose out of detention for completely unspecified reasons after she committed some serious property damage? - Ozpin) (… - Prof. Branwen) (… - Prof. Goodwitch) (…I suppose I deserve that. Fine, we’ll work out some kind of codeword system so you know it’s me. - Ozpin) (Thank you. - Prof. Goodwitch)
Post based on a submission by @tired1mmortal
Submitter’s note: Besides these, go nuts. Have fun
Submitted April 16th 2021 because I am very bad at responding to submissions. 😭
#user submission#tired1mmortal#I am so SO sorry#for taking this long#rules of beacon#oscar pine#55#ozpin#qrow branwen#glynda goodwitch#also#this is a#nothing bad ever happened#kind of AU#where all the trauma is there#but#pretty much everyone is alive#just for maximum humorous potential#so there will be little situations like the one above#so I can have my cake and eat it too in this AU#IE Oz can be walking around to mess with students#but also#Oz still has to spend SOME time in Oscar’s head#FYI#the people who write these rules might be…unreliable narrators#aka#it’s not actually Oscar’s semblance#it’s magical bullshit#they just don’t want to clue people in on that and semblances are a good excuse

have a slightly stressful thing to do today so i am going to be exclusively thinking about whatever gender fhawke has going on to distract myself and oh boy is it working
#i love women who are their dads and also the eldest brother and also the lady heiresses of an estate and also snarling dog lords#and everyone who meets them is fucking obsessed with them. me too!#in my head fhawke to athenril is like sneaking a taste of the fine goods she smuggles#and then on the opposite end 3 acts later hawke is showing up to hightown parties in bloodstreaked champion armour#and putting her muddy boots on the table#and the young lords and ladies are blushing. giggling. fans fluttering#but i will be quiet before i speak too much. i just think shes. well i think shes very.#the isabelamance is such a fun one to explore hawkes who have that disconnect between their lowtown and hightown selves#‘you can get your thrills in hightown if you know where to look’ and all that#you want to have your cake and eat it too. the fancy estate and the nights in the hanged man#the freedom spent in fine company and the magic crackling at your fingertips#the suitors that flatter you on your arm and the pirate you love in your bed. etc#you think if you just fight hard enough you can have it all but it keeps slipping between your fingers#i love characters with ambition its so so fun

Helloooo farmer friends!! So last night my friend @pavusprince mentioned how she doesn’t understand the toothpaste mint chocolate chip ice cream comparison and that got me thinking!! Let’s talk about food!!
Does your farmer like mint chocolate ice cream? Does it taste like toothpaste? Are they neutral, or do they hate it?
During the summer does your farmer visit Alex’s ice cream stand? What flavor/treat do they buy? What’s their least favorite flavor?
What is one treat your farmer will ALWAYS have in their home? Is it healthy or unhealthy?
If your farmer was a snack item what would they be? (It cannot be a food that could be eaten like a meal, but it may be a dessert) Here’s some examples: chips, cookies, M&ms, Twinkies, crackers, bubblegum, lollipops, etc
What’s your farmer’s comfort food, favorite meal, and least favorite meal?
What’s something they will NEVER eat?
What do they cook if they know they will have a guest over?
If the town’s potluck didn’t matter so much, what ingredient would they take? And what food would they put at an event table if you had to bring something?
Finally, if your farmer was real, what would YOU give them to eat.
#stardew valley#stardew valley farmer#sdv farmer#sdv oc#farmer prompts#😯 I really wanted to ask about food but didn’t know how to not make it too long as I hope y’all are okay with this one#mys likes mint chip :) ! she DOES go to the stand in the summer and will buy whatever feels right that day it’s usually cookies and cream#oh she might just buy a vanilla crème bar covered in chocolate or an orange cream popsicle :)#she HATES plain chocolate ice cream or strawberry ice cream with actual strawberries in it#mys will always have some type of candy around be it chocolate or sugar chalk candy or butterscotch or cherry sours or sour gummies etc#mys; despite the nickname gumball; would be a sugar cookie in the shape of a heart with a pretty frosting deign and sugar crystals on top :)#she finds comfort in French fries 😌; she loves 🍕 ; and she HATES fish (gasp I know)#you won’t ever find her eating fish like seriously if she can avoid it she will#if she has a. guest over she’s basic she’ll make fried up lemon chicken#OR if she’s having guest over for a fun night of like games she’ll make something easy like pizza chicken tenders/nuggets fries#Mys would toss in a lemon 🤭 and she’d make brownies for the table#finally I would hand my baby some funfetti cake🥺 there would be lots of candles for every birthday Myles ignored and forgot

nothing hurts more than seeing ur fave character depicted in an official au story or elseworld where details ab them r different but it explores the character in a new way -- its good in a vacuum, but u know it isn't the Definitive Version of that character. Just a new exploration (cool!). but because the adaptation brought in so many new fans and/or was a huge success it ends up being treated like its the Definitive Version and all discussions of prev versions are overshadowed bc of it... even worse when studios / execs see the success and try to pivot to this New Version only and never try to explore new routes for the character ever again (can you tell this is about comics yet)
#like its not as bad as it was but when the batman (2022) came out...#like this is not hating on ppl who are fans of these depictions at all. if u like the riddler in the batman (2022) ur fine#i like the riddler but eh i dont think that version should be the new riddler. my two cents#but dc isnt marvel so i wasnt worried ab them changing the comics riddler to him moving forward#now MARVEL on the other hand...#i dont rly go there tho so take everything with a huge huge huge pile of salt. but sigh#anyways. this post is NOT about shaming ppl who are fans of these new versions#you can be a fan of any of these new versions. idc.#this post is about STUDIOS and EXECS changing the character completely to capitalize on the new versions success#this is just mostly ab mcu i guess i dont know#i want more explorations of characters gimme moreeee there shouldnt be one defined version#i guess my talking points r confusing. i hope this is coherent and comes across well#ALSO SOME RETCONS / NEW VERSIONS R GOOD SOMETIMES!!! it just depends i guess :p#i hope this post didnt come off as malicious to fans of these versions.#HOWEVER. new fans u gotta try to read some of the other stuff too! maybe u will find another version u like TOO!#u can have two cakes... and eat them... lets hold hands and appreciate diff versions of our faves 2gether#a good example of a retcon being good is arcane i guess... not comics but just the designs r so much better#but i wouldnt say everything ab arcane SHOULD be the new runeterra canon...#it works bc its only focused on zaun and piltover characters. to fit it in with everything else is... hard#BUT THATS OK 👍
