thinking about shou's mom again. specifically how Just Walk Out, You Can Leave is one of the most central and least subtle themes of mp100; take responsibility, yes, but you don't have to fight when a fight is all it will accomplish. you don't have to martyr yourself.
walking away is a moral act, it's a STATEMENT. and in the case of shou's mom, while leaving her husband didn't do the thing she meant it to do right away, eventually he did hear her. he wouldn't have had his realization at the end of WD arc if she'd never done that. hell, he wouldn't have done what he does in confession arc if she hadn't. he wasn't there in 7th division, he didn't learn that from reigen. he learned it from her.

So if a Mel and Caitlyn pair up defeats a dictator and wins a war (at least the first part), a Vi and Jayce team up only ever kills kids or fucks up a mission, and l then what does a Jinx and Viktor pair do? What do the other options make?
Here are my ideas, ranking from best outcome to worst or what actually gets done.
Genuinely think a Viktor Mel pair (depending on if they both have some sort of magic) save the world. Both incredibly intelligent. Both caring but can’t be manipulated by emotions easily (influenced is a different story but damn when you’ve got a terminal illness or a dictator mom it’s hard being normal). However I think the arcane writers knew the team up would be too powerful. Also incredibly sexy. If they just had tea together once I think there would be no arcane story to tell.
Cait and Viktor. Not a lot getting done but if we’re thinking season 1 then it’s gonna be so nice and calm. They’re having tea. They’re planning our improvements for Zaun. A harp sings in the distance. They talk about Jayce. Caitlyn asks questions and listens to the answers and vice versa. World peace maybe not achieved but close.
Technically Jayce helped Cait free Vi and helped cover it up, as well as help her when Caitlyn tried explaining what was going on with Silco. Very even results. Nothing major changing here but typical for people who literally just bring out nothing in each other besides…friendship? Siblings? Idk.
Vi and Viktor would probably get along in the sense of they knew an older Zaun. (At least in comparison to Jinx.) Vi can be pretty gentle and Viktor definitely cares. Battle wise he ain’t gonna do much (the only time he really fought was when it wasn’t a good thing for anyone) but he’s bring the smarts to Vi’s streets. They’re gonna win the battle but it will be tough. Some lives may be lost but it ain’t theirs.
Mel and Vi….Vi does not like politicians. Vi does not like people from Piltover beyond Caitlyn (and maybe Jayce?) They argue the whole time. Nothing bad happens but nothing gets done. It’s mostly Vi’s fault but Mel can’t let it go. It’s been three days and they haven’t left the council room. It ends with the mutual agreement to never meet again.
Technically a Cait/Jinx pair saved Vi (after the commune) and also the conversation they had in the jail was actually civil. Don’t think a whole lot is getting done but a good battle buddies I think. There’s gonna be tension though. Lots of arguing and glares. Caitlyn’s hair is now orange and Jinx lost another finger. Lots more damage than necessary.
Mel and Jinx. Someone is dying. It might not be one of them but it’s definitely someone who shouldn’t be dead. Mel’s level-headedness barely works on Vi and it definitely won’t work on Jinx. She’s never had a younger sister. Jinx knows what buttons to push. The building is on fire.
Jayce and Jinx. Mostly everyone is dead except for Vi and Viktor somehow, or the exact reverse. They haven’t stopped arguing since they met. They just keep slapping each other like cats. Jayce keeps trying to hit her with the hammer but she’s elusive and it’s like a game of wack-a-mole. He kills a kid each time instead. Jinx won’t stop making fun of him. Someone lost a limb at some point.
Jinx and Viktor. Everyone is dead. I would say they are too but no, they’re stuck at the end of the universe with each other. It’s equally both their faults. Viktor deadnames her every time she insults him. She never stops and neither does he. They each have a shrine to their respective loved one and it’s the only places they don’t bother each other. She bleached half his hair. He poured out her nail polish. They fight till the end of time itself. Sometimes they have movie nights where their respective hallucinations (Silco, Sky) join.

bdubs is so cool hes the reason i hate describing things as content wdym this is content its so much more, it’s craftsmanship, it’s meticulous detail and love and care and deliberate thought and aaaa his videos are crafted so well, i love how he takes the time to explain his process and then uses a building montage not sped up to not only include us in the process but really emphasize that this is thoughtful art not just a build that appears out of nowhere. ugh if stop and smell the roses were a guy it would be bdubs. his videos are just so engagingggg and the humor in them also rules and i could listen to bdubs talk for hours and hours because something about his sentence structures and vocal inflections just draw attention and are so fun. what a guy. also does anyone else watch his old vlogs and experience a deep sense of yearning.

how are y’all forming coherent thoughts today? stringing words together, making synapses fire, experiencing anything other than pure chaotic joy? i wish i could take this feeling in my chest and explain it in words. it’s just too big right now. too big and floaty and all consuming. it’s elation, grief, pride, feeling seen, and knowing some of the closest people to me will never be able to under its importance. not in the same way and maybe not at all.

Sometimes it hits me all over again that my husband is the best husband anybody could ask for and that he's amazing and I love him more than anything, and I tell him all of that. And he's super appreciative but a bit confused and goes "I'm not even doing anything!"
But, like, he does everything, you know? 🥹

hi anons! you were both asking similar things, so i wanted to share an ask that i answered at the very beginning of the month that i think is a little bit related
i feel like a lot of people in the fandom at large are always moving instantly onto the next thing or wanting something new from taylor or assuming that something huge will beget something even bigger (surprise speak now announcement?! but what about 1989? 1989 announcement?! but it’s a double album right? right???), and i think this corner of the fandom is by and large a lot more grounded than that but still i would urge people to consider the perspective that we already got the thing, and it was so freaking magical, and we should enjoy the reality of that. everything else could just be extra sprinkles on a sundae if we acknowledge it in that way

I fight for the endos because I know what it's like to be bullied into denial and forced to believe my trauma is something it's not just to be allowed to exist. I don't want anybody with any identity or experience to suffer like that, regardless of their scientific validity. hence why stances like "they're just traumagenic" are just as bad to me as "they're fake". it fucking hurts people. it hurt me.
nobody should ever have to dig up trauma of horrific abuse to be accepted. nobody should ever have to change their view of themselves to be accepted. nobody should ever have to lie about their experience to be accepted. nobody should EVER have to cry themselves to sleep because they will never exist the right way. Nobody deserves that. Not just Legitimate Systems. NOBODY.
I don't care if your experiences are real. I don't care if you're labelling them correctly or not. I don't care if you're in my space or using my community's resources. I really don't care if you actually have trauma or not.
All I will ever care about is that every single person feels comfortable and accepted in the way that they are. and is never made to feel like they are bad for that.
(as always, if you disagree or think in any way shape or form that I am wrong about any of this, just block and move on. this isn't for you and you won't change my mind about shit. I don't care.)

Anyway any time people extensively criticize Keeley even if they’re saying things that are basically reasonable, if they don’t spend equal time on Roy’s fuckups I start itching to bite.
It’s this EXACTLY tbh because like. Those of y’all who have been following me for a minute know I LOVE discussing these bitches flaws like I absolutely do love unpacking that HOWEVER… i think this one-sided business is very unfair and also like. Genuinely a bad interpretation of the show? People are either watching with their eyes closed or in extremely bad faith or something because ??? These characters are all good people!!! They fuck up but they are not like, irredeemably bad for each other because they…both suck-ass at communicating, lol. And I sincerely hope some people aren’t building their real friendships and relationships off a tit-for-tat scorecard of their mistakes, because that’s very goofy.
“Well Keeley was dismissive about the end of Roy’s career [one time in one conversation]!!!” Well yes, and then she proceeded to *checks notes* stand by his side during the hardest transition period of his life, gently encouraging him to carve a new path for himself but also not pressuring him into doing something he wasn’t yet ready for??
“Roy booked 6 weeks in Marbella without even considering Keeley’s new job!! Clearly this shows he’s inconsiderate and unthoughtful about her career and priorities!!” Well yes, Roy was being an idiot scrambling to save a relationship he knew was dying. Even so, one episode prior he knew exactly what Keeley needed to hear when she was doubting herself before her Vanity Fair shoot, because it’s obvious he thinks she’s fucking incredible and he has so much belief in her ability to succeed!!
Like idk. No one is saying anyone has to ship them, but some of the complaints going around feel very manufactured to uphold other ships and characters when their favs were out here doing the exact same shit!! Like let’s step back for a second, idk

🌿 and 🤲🏻 for the ask game!
Thanks, anon!
🌿How does creating make you feel? Anywhere from very proud and thrilled to like I have never before composed a sentence and should stop before I pull a muscle.
🤲What do YOU get out of writing? Everything! Untold fuckin' riches!!! The excitement of reaching out into the void and seeing if the void will reach back. The impossible task I will happily and constantly fail at of trying to transmute being alive into words. The animal rightness of participating in the ancient and communal ritual of Storytelling. The headiness of creation, of making more life from life, of building a place from language that can be loved and lived in. The ridiculous, incredible power of being able to make someone laugh or be comforted or have a good cathartic cry when we've never even met. Doing it because I love you and I think you're wonderful and deserve the world in spite of that. Getting to make people feel held and seen. The enormous wealth of feeling held and seen in return. The feeling of communion: memory and connection and love. Of receiving and being received.
(let’s get real! fic writer asks)

Ethan (HGSS) Character Headcanons
Continuing with the New Bark Town trio headcanons!
Starring Ethan next:
So unlike Lyra, Ethan doesn't really do anything in the main storyline (same as the games, really, if you choose Lyra as the player character).
I thought maybe it would be cool if he had some kind of connection to the legendary beasts? since I associate Silver with Ho-Oh and and Lyra with Lugia. So basically, he experiences the Suicune/Eusine subplot instead of Lyra
A huge part of his character arc involves figuring out what he wants to do with his life. Living in a tiny town such as New Bark, he was always convinced that he had to go out and do Big Things™ with his life---and he kind of does while he's out with Eusine and later competing in the Pokelathon. But while doing so, he ends up overlooking what really matters: the people (and pokemon) close to him. And eventually he learns that not only is it fine to have an "average" life, it's actually kinda preferable in some ways.
I think the way it would go is that while he's out on his journey, he happens to encounter one of (or all of) the legendary beasts but it's scared off by the arrival of Eusine. Ethan asks what in the world just happened and Eusine starts explaining the ✨lore✨. He ends up accompanying Eusine on his quest in the hopes of another legendary encounter (though he doesn't really care about Eusine's reasons. he's used to just nodding along to Lyra's infodumping and Eusine isn't really any different. so). Slowly though, he starts to warm up to Eusine, genuinely getting invested in his efforts to bring back the legendary beasts and learning a bit about maturity/empathy on the way. It ends at Cerulean Cape like in the games, except Ethan doesn't catch Suicune and the event is left on a hopeful note that the beasts can in fact regain their trust in humanity.
His maternal grandmother was very hard on his mom during her child, so he ended up getting raised with much more relaxed rules. Unfortunately, rarely getting in genuine trouble, he kind of got used to getting away with more than he really should've. He ended up a little too confident and even a little self-centered at times as a result, though he's never intentionally mean-spirited.
(unfortunately the exact timeline/story beats are still very much undecided. so. can't elaborate on the specifics for now :/ )
He was the first person to really bring Lyra out of her shell when they were kids. Back then, she had the impulsive ideas but he was the one to actually go through with them. Some of their antics included climbing the windmills in New Bark Town, sneaking into the pen of a very wild pokemon Elm was studying, and sailing down the river on Route 27 all the way to the ocean on a poorly made raft, none of which were very successful. Kris tried to do damage control when she could, but as a research assistant there was no way to keep an eye on them at all times.
After Lyra chose Totodile and Silver stole Chikorita, he was left with Cyndaquil. He already had a starter pokemon (Marill) but since Cyndaquil was left by itself, Elm decided to offer it to Ethan and he was like "yeah why not." His third pokemon is a Pichu, specifically the spiky-eared Pichu (how'd get it without already having a shiny Pichu? Great question, moving on---).
He's actually the weaker battler compared to Lyra and Kris, but what he lacks in skill he makes up for in sheer willpower. by which I mean he likes to act big and cocky and tough when he really isn't. Dude loves his pokemon but just has no idea how to battle, he just does whatever feels right in the moment.
He still loves competition though, so when the chance came to compete in the Pokeathlon he was absolutely pumped. He and his pokemon are later considered one of the best teams, and he kinda becomes a celebrity---not necessarily mobbed on the streets, but definitely a well-known name to anyone who keeps up with the sport.
While he's competing, he lives with his grandparents in Goldenrod and helps out around their daycare. They don't initially approve of his participation, but he gets money for winning and he promotes the daycare every chance he gets so they can't really complain.
Partially due to the advertising, business at the daycare blows up and Ethan eventually "retires" to focus on it. He doesn't bother announcing it or anything, he just kinda stops showing up to the Dome. When interviewed about it, he responds "oh yeah, I'm actually done competing lol. anyways if you need any top-tier daycare services---"
He ends up taking over the daycare for his grandparents once they're older and it's too much for them to handle. He occasionally helps Elm with his research since he deals with pokemon eggs and evolutions so often.
Between the Pokelathon and helping out at the daycare, Ethan gains a decent amount of muscle. It gets to the point where he can just throw his friends over his shoulder without warning and parade them around, and it's his favorite thing ever. Kris will just hang there chilling, Lyra will burst into laughter until she's set down, and Silver will either quietly sulk or cuss Ethan out depending on the mood he's in.
He's cousins with Red on his dad's side! They both know the basics of Kantonian Sign Language because sometimes, it's easier to sign than miming or pulling out their pokegears to communicate when Red goes mute (though it's not their main form of communication). He really looked up to Red as a kid, so when his older cousin goes missing, he takes it as best as he can even though it's still really hard on him.
He cuts his own hair because it "looks cool." Eventually he figures out how to do it well, but for a while his hair just looks like he put it under a weed eater and called it good.
He's the kind of guy to wear shorts no matter the weather. It's fine when he's living in New Bark Town, but unfortunately for him Goldenrod tends to be a bit more chilly. Not that he'd ever actually admit to being cold, of course---he's too cool for that (pun intended >:] )
Despite getting flak from his friends for occasionally lacking common sense, he actually grows to be very emotionally intelligent. He's easily able to pick up on what other people are feeling and works around that during conversations, which is part of the reason he gets along with almost everyone (helps that's he's super charismatic---not in an attractive way necessarily, just a big lovable dork kind of way)
Despite being naturally friendly, he also returns exactly the attitude he's given. He and Silver's friendship has a very rocky beginning, with the two of them tolerating each other for Lyra's sake until they manage to find common ground (and Silver becomes a little less of an ass)
He hands out nicknames left and right---Crystal, Lyra, and Silver are Kris, Ly, and Silvs respectively. The more he dislikes someone, the more outlandish (and/or insulting) their nickname tends to be.

it is finally midnight here, which means it's officially taylor's birthday, and taylor i know you'll never come across this in a million years — that's besides the point really — but it needs to be said here in my little digital diary how much i love you and how grateful i am to you for essentially raising me from the first time i heard tim mcgraw playing on the way home from the grocery store. i was 10 then, i'm on my way to turning 28 next year, and i honestly don't think i would be on this earth right now if it weren't for you and your music... your art.
thank you for saving this girl a thousand times over, i love you to the moon and to saturn. 🌙🪐🫶
