#but damn is he irritating

[dirtytransmasc]

I feel like Aegon would try and teach his siblings how to drive and it would just end in them bickering and papa Criston has to help out lollll

oh yes. but he's doing it anxious older sibling style. he's filling them with all of his own fears, insisting he knows what he's doing (its a mess, cause he's terrified of every little thing on the road) and he's also just a big brother about it, he's being a bit of a dick.

helaena needs him out of her car cause he's stressing her out, Aemond just wants to hit him cause he's backseat driving and being a "big baby", and Daeron's already seen enough of his antics prior to learning to drive to know to just immediately call dad to remove the nuisance from his car.

Aegon's the driving instructor equivalent of those doomsday prepper, conspiracy theorist, "the end is nigh" sign holding type people. his siblings don't need that energy in their car.

they end up just yelling at him to get out till Criston drags him back home.

Even though I did not ship them, I will always be a little bit heartbroken over how the relationship between Gale and Katniss ends. They were like family to one another, so essential to the other’s survival, the only person Katniss could be herself around for a long time before the games. They were so close that the other’s family become their own, with Katniss taking care of Gale’s family and vice-versa. They knew each other so well, were so acquainted with one another’s ticks and heartbeats and quirks. I really enjoyed their friendship and it’s so so sad to me to watch them drift apart during the third book until they finally just cut contact with one another. I will always be an Everlarker, do not get me wrong, but Katniss and Gale’s friendship was so special and it sucks the way it ended. It just goes to show that war really does taint every relationship, every part of your life, everything that makes you the person you are.

currently possessed with thoughts of Camila coming for a visit with an old photo album from before Luz disappeared, but it happens on a day where Luz is hanging out with Eda so it ends up just being Camila showing Hunter Luz's baby pictures and being so so so so so fond about how much Hunter loves her. Camila shares stories of silly little things that Luz did when Camila was her mom and Hunter just smiles because "she's always been that way"

AW. OH NO THAT'S SO CUTE.... hunter matching camila's old stories with stories of his own from when he and luz were growing up and not even Realizing how much it means to camila.... just to have this little glimpse of who luz was as a child and the pieces of her childhood that were Not defined by Endless Horrors (TM)....

I will never ever forget what my dad said to me years ago in middle school when I was sad that my irl friend at the time wasn't playing wizard101 with me and he immediately said "well that's probably because she has a life." God still hasn't lifted me back up from that

today at work was less awful until the very end when i was putting together syringes that had been autoclaved and the vet came up and was like it's easier if you do it this way blah blah and then he picks one up that i had put together and was like this is wrong Obviously because the plunger is all the way up here. and i was like well it's not so fucking Obvious is it because i Obviously did not know that. i still have no idea what he was talking about because the plunger was the same diameter as the syringe and went all the way to the bottom which i thought were the only important factors. but Obviously they are not. which nobody fucking told me!!!!!!!!!!! christ

Yeah the barbie movie kind of irritated me. I really did not want to be talked at about very very very surface level liberal feminist ideology in this 2 hour long barbie advertisement. It was especially frustrating bc most other aspects of the movie WERE very funny

i truly don't think i talk about constantine's generally lame qualities enough because i spend a lot of time on his occult persona or highlighting the lovely things about him that have been lost/discarded in later adaptations, so like. aside from the obvious conning, lying, stealing, and occasional backstabbing that come with the work, some everyday bad habits include:

he forgets people's birthdays far more often than he remembers them, including the birthdays of family and partners. it's going to happen. now, he does have memory problems / usually has a lot going on in life, but he's also always had a negative attitude towards his own birthday and is not likely to consider someone else's important enough to prepare for ahead of time. he'll always go out of his way to make up for it, but a half-assed last-minute gift and even more half-assed apology isn't always an enjoyable tradition when you've known him for a long time. (of course, if you've known him a long time, you might have come to expect it by now. doesn't make it nicer.)

when it comes to apologies, he does usually mean them, but it rarely comes off that way. a lot of the time, it's either a casual 'sorry' followed by breezing on as if nothing happened, or if called on that, a 'sorry' followed with something deflective/self-pitying like 'what else do you want me to say?' / 'look, i knew you'd be upset if i told you' / 'you'd have been angrier if i did x instead'. it's shitty and he knows it, and he does try to make up for it / explain his reasons when he feels like he has the time to do so. but it's shitty and he knows it and he keeps doing it anyway (and keeps doing the things he ends up needing to apologize for too), so, make your own judgments.

he'll often straight up run away from emotional conflict if he thinks someone's about to be angry at him. physically, actually, run away. this can include ghosting people for weeks, or until he finally gets up the courage to face a well-deserved bollocking. he will eventually come back to face the music, but it's hard to miss the initial fleeing.

chronically running his mouth is a given, but doing so even after you've asked / told him to shut the fuck up can also be a given. he doesn't care if it's the mother you're reconciling with, a friend you're trying to ice out without causing further drama, or your grudge-holding boss: if he perceives unfairness or a slight against someone he likes / cares about, he's likely to chat shit to people's faces about it, regardless of social rules/conventions. he's got a very strong sense of justice and very bad impulse control, and as much as he's willing to put himself on the line to defend somebody else, he doesn't always consider the potential for collateral damage to the person he's defending. (mind you, if a hard boundary is set ahead of time to keep his mouth shut in a situation, he will be careful not to cross it, but without explicit guidelines, his instinct is to fight.)

fridge pilferer. he's a surprisingly good houseguest most of the time, and usually asks before taking food from a pantry or a cupboard, but his fridge logic is 'if it's in there, it'll expire sooner or later, so i might as well do them a favor' and take it off their hands.' leftovers he leaves alone, and he won't go for vegetables if he can avoid it, but anything else (eggs, milk, cold cuts, yogurt) is considered fair game.

he's constantly reading people's mail, albeit discerningly; i.e. only if the envelope, package, or return address "looks interesting." he'll reseal anything he opens before handing it over to its rightful recipient, because he doesn't want to leave incriminating evidence behind, but sticking his nose in everyone else's business remains his specialty.

chronic over-the-shoulder phone peeker and reader of messages, he just cannot help it. who you texting, whatcha texting, you got games on your phone, etc. a little bit of it is paranoia, but the rest is straight-up inconsiderate grandpa behavior and insatiable curiosity. he's Learning to be more considerate, in this newfangled smartphone age, but he's not learning fast.

desperate want to go up to that one progressive NSFW artist guy who nigh-on exclusively draws lesbians, in an extremely "this is porn directed AT (relatively milquetoast yada yada) sapphics" sorta way, and just. shake him. explain. not insinuating shit about his/your character it just makes my brain hurt explain yourself

Just want to rant about Kai a bit, and how he is in Season 1.

Because I fucking hate him in Season 1. I'm sorry, but he's just such an asshole. And not a funny and lovable asshole. Just an asshole, whether it's about the green ninja shit or Nya being a girl.

And he does improve after his True Potential episode (due to character development), but prior to it (and actually during part of it) he's just unbearable to me.

And I remember that as a kid I hated him as well during Season 1.
