EVERY SINGLE DAY there are MILLIONS of characters in their late 20s who get falsely accused of being father figures to teenagers when in reality the description of "weird older cousin" or "step-sibling that moved out before you were born" is 1000000x more apt
#talk tag#IT KILLS ME. REIGEN IS NOT MOB'S DAD. HE HAS A DAD. INGO IS NOT AKARI'S DAD. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CAN ANYONE HEAR ME#(not even necessarily to say that ingo is in his late 20s but still)#(even if he was a 30-40-50 year old no matter how old he is no fucking teenager is gonna call some guy they met as a 15 year old ''dad'')#GAI IS NOT A FATHER FIGURE TO ROCK LEE HE WAS LIKE 13 WHEN HE WAS BORN! PLEASE!!!!!!!!#one time i saw that a person wrote a fic where mario was like a father figure to luigi.#they are TWIN BROTHERS.#not what this about but idk where else i can say anything about this.#just horrible#also sometimes someone is just An Older Friend like no familial relationship just a friend or acquaintance who is a lot older than you

Michael Afton is so fucking old in FNAF..
#myart#chloesimagination#comic#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#fnaf fanart#michael afton#fnaf vanessa#fnaf vanny#security breach#you ever meet someone younger than you and it makes you turn to dust#this is what this comic is based off of that feeling#it’s just super funny and extreme in Michael’s case#cause he’s basically a zombie he doesn’t age normally#so perpetually looking like he’s in his 20s#but technically if Michael were ever able to meet vanesss in security breach era#he’s an old man dudes like 50 to 60 years old#which isn’t that crazy old but again he looks the same#so him hearing Vanessa wasn’t even born in the 90s#simply ages him rapidly kills him on the spot#he’s so relatable for this too I understand him

putting my prediction on record now that the coming decade is going to see the rise of viral-marketed fancy at-home water filtration systems, driving and driven by a drastic reduction in the quality of U.S. tap water (given that we are in a 'replacement era' where our current infrastructure is reaching the end of its lifespan--but isn't being replaced). also guessing that by the 2030s access to drinkable tap water will be a mainstream class issue, with low-income & unstably housed people increasingly forced to rely on expensive bottled water when they can't afford the up-front cost of at-home filtration--and with this being portrayed in media as a "moral failing" and short-sighted "choice," rather than a basic failure of our political & economic systems. really hope i'm just being alarmist, but plenty of this already happens in other countries, and the U.S. is in a state of decline, so. here's praying this post ages into irrelevance. timestamped April 2023
#apollo don't fucking touch this one#serious post#not a shitpost#hope i forget about this post and have no reason to ever look back on it one day#fyi i'm aware that access to potable water is already a major issue in parts of the U.S. yes i know flint michigan exists#i'm saying that this issue is going to GROW unless local & federal governments work together to fix it.#so it's a matter of if we trust them to fix it. And well--do you?#what are the chances the government just denies there's a problem until the water actually turns brown#at which point it's already been common knowledge for years and people have just become resigned and that's our new normal#i'm mean come on. how many of us already believe that we're being exposed to dangerous pollutants we don't know about and can't avoid#like that's pretty much just part of being a modern consumer. accepting that companies will happily endanger your life for a few pennies#and the most you'll get is like a $50 gift card as part of a class action rebate 20 years down the line#probably the history books will look back on Flint as a warning and a harbinger that went ignored#luxury condos will advertise their built-in top-of-the-line filtration systems--live here and you can drink water straight from your tap!#watch the elite professional class putting $700 dyson water filtration systems on their wedding registry#while the rest of us figure out how to fit water delivery into our grocery budget while putting 90% of our paycheck towards rent#also eggs are $15

every time i go into the nearby barnes & noble i get macroaggressed by this display going ‘these aren’t your grandma’s romance novels! 🥵’ full of identical pastel covers with colorblocked half-silhouette drawings of well clothed people hugging in front of a bougie cafe. yeah whatever i know, your grandma’s romance novels were gremliny little pulp paperbacks full of hilarious evil bisexuals ruining their lives and the lives of everyone around them with bullshit too hot for any b&n to stock. whatever. i wish there were more weird tiny indie bookstores around.
#also my grandmother was a nymphomaniac and had a ton of the most deranged romance i’ve seen outside livejournal in one of her 50 shelves#i forgot about this for 20 years but once when i was 11 my family stayed with her for 2 months while she recovered from a hip replacement#and at one point she saw me poking at her bookshelves and very clearly went#‘the books your mom won’t like are over here btw. so you know to not bother. :)’#fortunately i was allistic.

Just had the thought of Giorno being one of those like, having to inspect every item before he picks one to ensure he absolutely always gets his moneys worth type buyers. Because like. Before he joined the gang, when he was living off of pickpocketing and scamming people he also seemed to be going to a pretty decent looking school. He can't just dig through trash like other people did, he had a bit of a standard/reputation to uphold. But he also didn't have the money to throw on something that might not be quite right. So, he turns to carefully inspecting every single item and using like 15 coupons that he probably cut out if a newspaper that he stole from a box that was left open.
#idkk#jjba#jojo no kimyou na bouken#jojos bizarre adventure#jojo#headcanon#jojo headcanons#giorno#giorno giovanna#Those old newspaper boxes suck btw#It asked for 50 cents but didn't open until we put a dollar worth of quarters in#And then#The newspapers were from like 20 years ago!

My favorite barely ever considered RadioStatic fact is that, like, Alastor died about 20 years younger than Vox, but has been dead, in hell, about that same length of time, so he's both younger AND the same age as Vox. And then we all decided Alastor was Vox's mentor in hell, and never really acknowledge that this fully grown man is just letting this brand-new adult twink boss him around.
But we've decided (I've decided) Vox is usually the babygirl of them both, anyway. This man is in his 50s and so many of us were just like. Nah, he's babygirl. (We're right.)
Its just funny to me to think that one day they talk about the ages they died, and Vox is just like, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE IN YOUR 30s?!?!" bc he's been calling Alastor "daddy" this entire time, and now he has to reconcile the fact that he's significantly YOUNGER than him, lmao.
#hazbin hotel#alastor#vox#radiostatic#staticradio#staticlovetune#hazbin alastor#hazbin vox#every once in a while i see a fic acting like vox is the younger and im like the funny thing is he's not tho#not that i dont write vox the same but its just so fucking funny. this man is in his 50s and he's calling a man who#died barely a full grown adult daddy and following him around like he's his older mentor#mans died 20+ years younger than you he just Acts Like That#and vox just acts like a brat at all times bc he wants his daddy to spank him or something. i don't know. im not him idk why he does it

Yall ever think about how Zane is a seer with prophetic dreams of the future, but he's also a robot with memory problems who struggles to maintain his sense of self? Like. He's condemned to see a future he cannot prevent, yet cursed to long for a past he cannot recall. His dreams are filled with the vestiges of tragedies yet to come, but never the tragedies he wishes he could remember. Do you think he ever used to get disappointed when he'd have prophetic dreams, upset that it was another vision of the future but not of the past he so desperately wished to understand?
Anyway I'm gonna start biting people
#do you think the ice emperor ever experienced zanes sixth sense?#did he ever get visions?#i wonder what the visions were like. i wonder how he felt about them#did the ice emperor ever have visions foretelling the day his friends come to save him?#did he see dreams of him in ninjago again surrounded by loved ones?#dide the ice emperor has a vision of himself in a field having long since shed the armor hes worn for 50 years?#surrounded by grass and sun and springtime. the winter is over#he and some other people are laughing and eating bountiful food. it is serene and peaceful#he wakes up but cant remember the faces of the people in the dream#he doesnt know if its a dream or a vision but either way it haunts him. he doesnt know why#20 years later he is back in ninjago and he and his friends have a picnic#the dream has come true. zane looks around and sees not friends but the blurry-faced ghosts that haunted him for so long#ninjago#zane julien#zane ninjago#destiny post

this is how i, a finnish dungeons and daddies fan whose favourite characters from each season have always been the freddie wong characters, feel about blake lively
#he is MY BOY#MY SON#tämä poika saunoo#rip blake lively (20 in the 50s so probably idk 90 in 2024) you mustve loved the sauna#i like to think hes fully a finn who moved to pv a couple of years ago#like he spent his childhood in fucking oulu or something;#but the more likely answer which freddie was prolly after was that he just has nordic heritage#but w/e i like thinking hes finnish fully#dndads#dungeons and daddies#glenn close#henry oak#ron stampler#the peachyville horror#darryl wilson#tph#blake lively

I know this is a joke in Adventuring Party and probably isn’t canon but this is like… the best?
Fabian LOVES Honey and Bees, he’s just a spoiled fucker used to Fallinel Willow-Rose nectar honey or whatever - Solace stuff doesn’t compare tbh. He’s showing up, he’s attending meetings, having conversations about Honey.
Also, Step-Sibling solidarity between Fig and Fabian. Always a classic
#fantasy high#dimension 20#fantasy high junior year#fhjy#fantasy high junior year spoilers#fabian fantasy high#fabian seacaster#figueroth faeth#fig fantasy high#they have absolutly NONE of ANY sibling dynamic#except for small bits like this#and asking to move into Seacaster Manor when Gilear is back#Honestly i want more content of them hanging out#I just think the dynamic between Edgy Rockstar with Infinite Love#and Dramatic Prep/Jog with the insane ego that comes from both#like Fig will cut straight to the heart of you#and then make a silly little joke#deadass Emily’s insight is like +30#her investigation? Rewatching season 3 Emily makes a lot of hail mary predictions#and she’s batting about 50/50#EXCEPT for Characters#She knows their soul#from the start

You wanna talk about House and Benny? Let’s talk about House and Benny. Let’s talk about how House says he saw Benny as a son figure ans a rightful successor to the strip. Let’s talk about how Benny was so charmed by House’s offer that he literally killed a man to get the position to agree to it. Let’s talk about how House was intentionally priming Benny and regrets not doing better, not for the wasted time but of Benny’s wasted potential, how it was misplaced. Let’s talk about how Benny didn’t question House’s leadership until the guy started going radio silent. Let’s talk about House and Benny:
#cause realistically Benny had to be of an age house could project a parental view on when they first met and combined with how impulsive and#short sighted Benny is with his planning and way of operating makes me think he’s not as old as people headcanon cause he was the leader#the chairmen for 7 years so you have to subtract that from his current age meaning he was even younger and more impressionable to house cuz#how else would house see him as a good candidate if his backstabbing was already a thing seeing as house was aware of his plan from the#start so since house projects and acts like a man ranged late 40s to 50s I’d say Benny is max 25-27 by game start so they met when he was#still a teen cause a theme in the game surrounding older npcs ins a resistance to change and of course someone still young and okay with#change would take an offer such as Houses eagerly along with the fact Benny seems like okay with sudden change actually considering him#giving you the reigns when he thinks his goose is cooked#but this is all to say there was def an unhealthy projection on house part on the role he wanted Benny to play that was likely controlling#and the sudden silence as he tried to acquire the chip would only make Benny more inclined to rebel especially since he is still young and#impressionable if we take he’s only in his mid 20s#and before someone says he doesn’t look it he acts like that and some characters are supposed to be 26 and 37 and I bet you guessed wrong on#who the first time#fallout#fallout new vegas#mr house fnv#robert edwin house#benny fnv#benny gecko

I've been flirting with the idea of reading all like 500 Vampire Hunter D books and found this image from a cancelled comic project where D was going to go to America and it's sending me. D goes to a bodega, feed him 7/11 hotdogs and take him to a ball game. I would love for D to experience Cincinnati chili

#this question brought to you by: me writing 'thats all she ever seems to be in this body' and then going 'wait no wait no thats not right'#like. okay. if i say. she wants his body. im clearly talking abt two different..........physicalities lets say#she wants his body bc its unlike hers#but thats sort of like comparable to if yuo met future you and theyve been on hormones for years like#you want their body but thats still one and the same body you get me#or even just like. when youre 50 and you wish you had your 20 yo body or smth like that#you know what i mean?#its the same body it just changed#but if i phrase a phrase like 'in this body'. then it seems im separating them out#like this body is smth different from previous regenerations body#which. id ont think it is. i think its all the same body#but anyway. not sure what the exact difference here is that im putting my finger on#or Not putting my finger on#sticking my fingers IN#might just be semantics#but like. dont semantics matter sometimes#when words mean things#who knows#anyway swapping out 'body' in that initial sentence i wrote with 'regeneration' baaareeelyyy seems to solve the problem too#like i can get away with it. but its cheating. im not REALLY getting away with it#im still i think almost making the same claim i dont believe in re the bodies#anyway#can literally solve the problem by replacing 'body' in that sentence with 'lately'#fairly sure that fixes it#but not 100%

Kinda gets me when people age them down in AUs and stuff because to me those characters wouldn't be half as interesting if Chilchuck, Senshi and Mithrun were the tallman equivalent of in their twenties
#just something about having a lot of history you know#like. chills is divorced or thereabouts. senshi spent like 30 years living in dungeon wilderness. mithrun knows kabru's mom#none of this would be possible if they were 20-somethings#dungeon meshi spoilers#dungeon meshi manga spoilers#somewhat i guess#like. yeah kabru and laios and falin (and marci for an elf) are really young BUT have a lot of life exp#but like. the fact that so much happened to them while they are so young is TRAUMA. its BAD#meanwhile chilchuck had like. a pretty average life for a halffoot his age. maybe even successful from a professional standpoint#senshi didnt have an average life but had the time to accumulate an amount of knowledge no 20something could have#and of course mithruns whole life story is like. slowed down because hes an elf#but even then i think its really important to show that it might take several years to start recuperating from a traumatic event#like its what makes his character such an interesting commentary on disability and depression#when you're 25 bouncing back is easier. when you're 40? 50? showing that theres hope#even when you've lost your whole youth to your pain... thats a whole other thing#sorry i started writing serious commentary in the tags#chills#captain mithrun#senshi#even in senshis character up to a point. he spent more years out of society than in it#and YET! even he manages to find a place. somewhat#like. they are all here to show that life goes on even after horrible or simply sad shit happens to you#they are survivors!!!! thats important
