i think its so funny when people take the way donnie acts at face value even though its a horrible lie because he's a horrible liar, while understanding leo is bullshitting very well despite him actually being GOOD at bullshitting. many such cases
#personal#rottmnt#although tbf its probably because with leo its unpacked more thoroughly in the movie#donnie is not a morally ambiguous emotionally unavailable bad boy. he is very sensitive actually#he's a little crybaby /aff#and like this isnt hidden. he isnt SECRETLY sensitive or secretly caring its very out in the open actually#he's not hiding it well AT ALL AND THEY ALL KNOW IT LMAOOOOOOOO#i think donnie's perception of himself is somewhat earnest and somewhat. not? he DEFINITELY thinks he's more evil than he actually is#BGHFHDHGJFHG#i think what causes him to lash out and struggle to communicate is his inability to articulate his feelings#they are just too big for him. like its the exact opposite of robotic#he cant force himself to give a fuck but when he DOES its too much#so he yells and lashes out or he shuts down completely#honestly i think the perception of him being too sensitive being a problem makes way more sense than the perception of him being 'robotic'#when it comes to struggles in how his family sees him at least#even in little ways you can see him take it pretty personally when he's insulted#he struggles to blow things off#and i think it would also explain his tendency to like. visibly calm himself down when he gets upset? its a thing he does a lot in the show#he desperately wants to destroy that perception of him because he's trying so hard to close himself off#he doesn't want to be the sensitive one that cant take anything. it especially works in line with his shell#it was a big inspiration for canary continuity tbh. donnie should struggle with being the sensitive one in fic more#mikey is more empathetic and he's more emotional but donnie's quicker to feel offended or take things personally#BACKED UP HEAVILY BY CANON#that 'you can be honest with me! no hard feelings' - 'he's lyinggggggg'#like he's not upset with them babying him as much as he is with them genuinely finding it frustrating that he can fall behind like that#and just cannot take shit like that. so he tries to pull back and not seem as affected as he is#theyre a very cuddly family but mind you they can be actually mean to each other like that!!

ruhgh the pilot. the pilotttt.......... the patient getting wilson to reflect on house's actions and he barely has to examine before determining with a little smile that "yeah, he cares about me :) " like it's such a little thing. utterly precious. but also very smoothly gets the audience to think similarly: people will say anything, it's what they do that really shows what they mean and how they feel. love is a verb love is a doing word

okay its no secret i dont buy into marazhai being the persona he puts on. so as i've officially met him in game now, im making a list of all the in-game reasons i think he's a bit of an idiot [which i love btw. i find him far more compelling if he's a bit stupid/weird and he's trying so hard not to be but you just know nobody in commorragh is inviting him to parties]
the very first time you get a glance of him on a rooftop and. 'deal with this' "of course" proceeds to just walk off like 3 seconds after the other two
ambushes you. has you cornered. is in optimal position to kick your ass frankly, high ground and better weapons and utilising shock against you. ...he bitches at you for a while, gets insulted, then runs off into the forest with a maniacal cackle
heinrix fired a mild insult [considering what he's like to everyone else its barely an insult] and he took big enough issue with it to start saying how he'll break him and turn him into a pet. oh sure dude you're responding super well to this mild comment from the guy who accidentally insults everyone and their entire ancestral line at some point
i think it says something that he's learned to speak your language fluently too. that Has to be some kind of Yikes moment to admit publicly in drukhari culture. buried family secret great great grandfather drukhari-georg learned to speak mon keigh and now we claim he just spoke oddly because was shot in the head as a child to prevent the shame
he also knows the mon keigh lore that says youre a super special little guy as rogue trader and actually LISTENS to the fact you're the special little guy as rogue trader. and he does treat you as more equal/with more respect than the other characters. thats not just a drukhari culture yikes thats what gets you checked for a concussion or brain damage
literally socially atrocious enough its believed he's working with you [read: with you. not using you, not manipulating, cooperating. this is a big difference i feel] and only he himself doesnt believe it
ignore the fact he eventually DOES work with you which. is its own follow up statement
challenges you to fight him, to give chase then and there. i made him wait while i went through english government simulator where i queued for multiple days, did multiple day/week voidship trips back and forth, got distracted by accidentally starting jae's romance, pasqal telling me to servitorise her, getting blackout drunk with her, shipwide broadcast tm, giving her a voidship, her getting me a space cat, attacked by pirates, dealt with a plague, explored a few extra systems.......................
he destroys your palace. ...its rebuilt effectively within a week. most of the damage is in bodies which are just sent to the poor district to rot [almost feels worse than the damage done good job imperium]
the throne has claw marks. he could've blown it up or shot it or piled corpses on it but no he wanted to sit on the fancy chair and so turned into a common housecat mauling the sofa arm
how long was he just sitting there lounging on that chair? again see how long i kept him waiting. he was just sitting there trying to find a comfy position on this [for him] kinda small chair JUST so he could briefly taunt, break your window with his space motorbike, jump off the chair in a dramatic [but not gunna lie not that impressive] feat of gymnastics, then fly out. he doesnt even shoot at you as he leaves
i will continue my list as i see more that entertain me
#warhammer rogue trader#rogue trader marazhai#marazhai rogue trader#marazhai aezyrraesh#dont listen to how he tries to portray himself hes LAME and i thoroughly enjoy that about him#like. marazhai is a social outcast on so many levels and he is trying SO hard to compensate. it makes him incredibly interesting#ive seen some stuff of him later on but not all that much so im really curious how it'll go/how well i've grasped him#my current thoughts on him? he's just. fundamentally someone who desperately wants to be understood#but in all his long life he's never found it. and commorragh isnt a place for weakness like that. so he acts over it#he pretends to be some great evil mastermind with a lot of flair which is Intentional. because he doesnt know how to act like other drukhar#so concealing that is the best he's got. he doesnt realise the yawning gaps that show it for what it is and bring distain on him anyway#drukhari hate him because he's not like them. he's odd and dramatic and takes things to heart when he shouldnt but dismisses things he shou#he's tolerated for his blood connections and how it killing him could be an invitation for feud. he's also easy to get out of the way#send him to go chat to some mon keigh he'll be so fixated on setting the stage for the meeting he'll miss the important stuff#humans hate him bc he's drukhari. they believe the way he portrays himself because it fits propaganda#hell he may've even learned how to act drukhari from human stories. it'd fit tbh. ....i want to think more on this now#either way he loses. and tbh thats why i do like the idea of him with pasqal. theyre both freaks and social outcasts despite their ranks#robot rambles

i was going a little off about how well the squid game 2 narrative is put together as an act 2 of your classic act 1: establish, act 2: deconstruct, act 3: destroy (either the system or the players) dystopia narrative (in this case the act is a season but e.g. in the hunger games it was books) but unfortunately i was with my parents and cheering when thanos got chin stabbed and to defend (?) myself i said "i promise im not enjoying this as much as it seems like i am. im actually enjoying it more"

Btw, have you ever checked out the web series Wimp Witch by C Cameron? It’s both a completed webcomic and on going animated series on YouTube. Think there might be at least one or two characters in there who would be your type lol
SQUEAKS. OH MY GOODNESS. BACILLUS???????????? 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i don't think i've ever turned that red that quickly!!!!! 🙈💖💖💖 hello to the gorgeous and unapologetically sexy webcomic and cartoon that is Wimp Witch (for mature audiences)—everyone go and give its creator, @cecameron, some love!!! (your work is long overdue appreciation, especially for characters who will undoubtedly make folks froth at the mouth 🫠) magnificent suggestion!!! this series pulls no punches when it comes to putting poor Euline into deliciously racy scenarios, and i love it 🥰💖 the art style and animation are wonderful labours of love, and who here can resist 'big bad villain is head over heels for the ditzy, flustered leading lady'? oh, what i wouldn't give to be in Euline's shoes 🙈🙈 i don't even have proper words yet, just one look at Bacillus and something short-circuited upstairs. the voice, the mannerisms, the tongue—!!!!!!! we aren't even getting into the plant tentacles 😳 gee, i wonder if he's this, ahem, friendly to everyone he meets...🫠
seriously though, why aren't more folks talking about this series?! besides the characters being so much fun and highly simpable, it's such a cute universe with lots of room for theory-crafting 💖 this is a selfshipper's dream!! not to mention i know more than a few of you will be down bad for Wink, who i can only describe as Beetlejuice if he were a computer system 😂
Tumblr media
i am grabbing all you villain-and-monsterfuckers by the shoulders and begging you to watch/read Wimp Witch. you will not be disappointed 😉

also while i dont draw much de fanart anymore, i still sometimes go through fayde. i was thinking about playing dress up with jean again after ready this line what is his plainclothes outfit
Tumblr media Tumblr media
#i have a whole world for cunoesse built in my head and i will write it out someday but my thoughts on jean are more organized so#kim chester mack and harry are all around the same rank and dont wear their uniforms so it makes sense that jean doesnt either#before re-reading this i thought jean only cared about his appearance when he was in rcm gear#he clearly cares the rcm's image based on what he says during the tribunal and in the ending where harry runs out of morale#so i figured hed apply that same level of professionalism to himself too and i assumed he always wore it#so maybe hes less about image and more about whats functional#his authority comes from actions not appearance & the very lil control he has#wearing his uniform is prob a recent thing because he wants to show harry what a REAL cop looks like (harry doesnt gaf 💔)#or if theres a big case thats going to be a public spectacle#ofc jeans relationship with his uniform is unique to him#i think mack & chester only dress like that because they think it looks cool they can be a bit superficial#harry and kim's reasons are explained thoroughly in the game so i dont have to go there. it's v purposeful#i love small details like this since it helps build a stronger character profile#esp for characters that arent in the game much#going back to cunoesse she has a small role but theres so much to say about her#based on the way she behaves her dialogue and her relationship to martinaise and cuno#i feel bad whenever ppl say mean things about her shes 10 and traumatized#and her only support system is a traumatized 12 year old who is scared of her#theyre resilient but theyre kids bro...#whatever but yeah jean would have a bunny suit with rcm patches on it fer sure#rambling#i think ive talked about my thoughts on the characters' clothing choices before#irt cuno and cunoesse

Ninjago is such a long show but my favorite scene in the entire franchise still has to be the final confrontation between Lloyd and Harumi on the skytrain in s8. The dialogue, the emotions, the way the music started building up while he was promising his revenge,, the overture hitting right when he jumps off the train. it's so well done, genuinely.

ooc: Woke up with So Many Thoughts on the Fifteenth Doctor… and I am TRULY at war with myself about whether or not I wanna wade into fandom discourse…
I don’t…
But WOW, what a fascinating and beautiful knot the production team has created for themselves…
#ooc#the long and short of it is essentially… I saw someone complaining about how RTD still writes The Doctor as if he’s white#and… controversially perhaps… I think that’s correct#because uh. as a black person myself… I’m quite confident in saying that Becoming Black and stepping into that as part of who you are#does NOT HAPPEN OVERNIGHT.#it takes some people their whole lives to step into that#and The Doctor has been white for EONS#a white MAN for most of that#I quite liked Dot and Bubble especially at the end watching him have to grapple with ‘oh. things are Different.’#it stung to watch. in a way a LOT of DW stings now that does make me feel… unsafe and uncared for as a viewer of color#but unlike when they did the Rosa Parks episode THIS felt deeply necessary#and honestly… I HOPE The Doctor was thinking back to how they acted during that episode. what they put their companions through.#how thoroughly and completely 13 failed to protect them in a way no previous doctor had.#and now… standing on the other side of it..#and maybe getting that little flicker of clarity. of… this is WHY we protect them. besides just being decent.#i think it’s gonna be healthy for the doctor to get some hard fucking lessons in this regeneration. to act like he always has and have it#just Hit Different. and then he has to carry that forward. THAT’S the real challenge.#I don’t want a doctor who Acts Black. that’s offensive.#I want a doctor who lives through something that mirrors my experience and pulls hope and joy out of that#someone who carries that awareness and uses it to make a difference the way The Doctor is supposed to#I don’t think that defeats the purpose. I think that IS the purpose#he’s never BEEN an iteration of The Doctor that looks or is received like this. Same as when he was a woman.#he’s having his eyes opened to old patterns and ingrained. and that’s so SO NECESSARY.#if this show is going to carry on another sixty plus years he has to see who he’s been and what he’s been privileged to…#and then carry on pushing back even harder with love and empathy and everything he’s learned and gained and become#he has to be an accumulation as much as an individual. otherwise… the hope he brings is only for Some People not everyone#there are gonna be stumbles… but I think that’s actually great#… I said I wasn’t gonna go off. but at least I did it in the comments where the trolls can’t find me
