🔥 choose violence ask game 🔥

6. which ship fans are the most annoying?

CAN I TAKE THE COP OUT ANSWER AND JUST SAY ANYONE WHO SHIPS PE/DOPHILIA OR INC/EST…

like for me to single out a single group of ship fans to say they’re annoying completely takes away from the fact that i think every dragon ball fan is fucking annoying (myself included) because that’s just how we are. i could say a bunch of shit like [x] straight ship fans are annoying because they’re not shipping something queer. i could do the opposite and say [x] gay ship fans are annoying because they’re yaoi chasers. it’s pointless to me okay!!! truthfully everyone is just vibing and the real freaks are the people guiltlessly enjoying the shit i mentioned above!

that’s all [:

just,,,,, the way that blake smiles here,, waiting for yang to pull her in and kiss her,,,,,,,,,,,,, much to think about,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[set-wingedwarrior]

Alright, I need to talk about this specific shot for a second

(thank you @canonbumbleby for the gif!)

I just, love it so much. Not just the kiss itself, but its whole execution.

I love how Yang's smiling too at first, before the nervousness takes over.

I love how, even if impercettably, Blake's the first one to lean in and encourage Yang to do the same.

I love how Yang then looks at Blake's lips, then back up to her eyes, all nervous because she knows where this is going.

I love how Blake looks in her eyes the whole time and sees what's going on with Yang, still waiting patiently for her to be comfortable and make her move.

I love how when Yang does lean a little bit further, even if still a bit unsure, Blake's smile gets wider.

I love how it confirmed Yang's intentions and only then Blake moves to meet her halfway.

I just love it all so much.

From this quote:

Shoutout to @canonbumbleby for bringing this quote to attention and saying it’s Gohan cause it is…. Man I think no matter what the fact Gohan has been fighting since so young just will always leave me in a little fetal ball where I cry

i’m sorry guys i can’t contain myself bumbleby has me in tears not even 48 hours later and i just have to gush about all this

Anyways… looking back on this has me awestruck, honestly. This is a story we’ve been patiently and impatiently attending to for years, a mesh of writing and art and voices and storytelling and animation cobbled together from the hands of many and the initial vision of just one. That seems pretty incredible to me. 

My first girlfriend introduced me to this show when I was 14. Just barely a high school freshman. It was 2015, and Volume 3 hadn’t aired yet. Monty had just passed away and a lot of you, in the FNDM, didn’t know what lay ahead for RWBY. I joined after the uncertainty, before everything that followed. What we had was Burning the Candle, a couple cast jokes, and a few teasing hints that were eventually dismissed by the doubtful. I contented myself with how unlikely a lesbian couple was to ever occur onscreen, and made do with my own imagination. I loved the rich imagery of Blake and Yang’s partnership, the allusions of it, everything it could be. I mourned that it would likely never come to pass and vowed to explore it in my own time, with my own plan.

In the years that followed, I wrote over a million words (I did tally this from my Ao3 account!) and grew enormously along the way. It was this that made me decide to major in English & creative writing at a time I wasn’t even sure I wanted to go to college (I will be graduating next month with a magna cum laude in my field, which I can’t even fathom!) I made friends whom I still talk to, to this day. I devoured absolutely gorgeous pieces of fiction that tended and grew the love from the seed we had seen in the canon show into a garden of extraordinary variety (special shoutout @lightsaroundyourvanity, @thirteenyasmin, @thecousinsdangereux and @pugoata)! I pored over breathtaking works of fan art (looking at you @frankielucky, @corvophobia and @frishbi). I saw some damn good analysis from so many people (hey @almea, @canonbumbleby, & @bumblebyaf!) I watched Blake and Yang throughout the FNDM’s shock at the end of V3, the infighting throughout V4 as it seemed our high hopes would culminate in nothing, our bated breath at their reunion as V5 ended, to our euphoria in V6, and now. We watched, doubting and wondering and celebrating, as incrementally, Blake and Yang found their way back together first in presence, then in spirit. All the while, wondering, will-they-or-won’t-they? 

I hoped so much, and doubted just as often, as many of you did, too. Prior to ever watching RWBY, I’d realized I was gay, but hadn’t ever expected to see someone like me represented in something I loved - at least not in a way where it wasn’t their whole identity rather than just another part, like loving the color blue or preferring coffee to tea. When we watched Lexa get shot, when we saw show after show with lesbian couples result in cancellation, when we became merely a moment in a finale or a passing scene, easily dismissed, it became so easy to let discouragement be the loudest voice of all. 

But sometimes persistence pays off. Sometimes you do get to see the things you’ve loved for so long become more than wishful thinking. Sometimes you get days like yesterday. Where some of us cried, most of us laughed, and we all collectively lost our fucking minds in a way that felt like being a little kid again where everything just feels right.

I guess what I want to say is this: eight years passed. I am not the same person I was when I fell in love with the love that hadn’t even grown enough to be named as such between Blake and Yang. But that girl does live inside of me still, and yesterday, I got to celebrate with her just as freely as she did with me. Over the moon for all of this. Thank you CRWBY, thank you Eddy, Kerry, Arryn, Barbara, Yssa, Miles, and every other animator, concept artist, scriptwriter, every person who had even the slightest hand in making this possible. What a time to be alive!

Reasons to vote for each of them below:

a play on fairytale romances, they are basically lesbian princess x knight; the knight saves the princess, then the princess saves the knight, and they fall in love in about a day while experiencing the beauty of earth. only made for one purpose, they denied that fate and found something entirely new in each other, a perfect sapphire who wasn't perfect at all and a discardable ruby who was special after all. also, they have the record for first onscreen gay kiss and wedding in western animation!

Sig and Izumi are the power couple of all time. They literally fell in love with eachother within 30 seconds of meeting. They had the "I accidentally ran into you let me help you pick up your dropped books" moment from most romcoms, but instead of books izumi dropped a grizzly bear. They run a small business together. They are so inlove its unreal.

happy birthday ros i cant wait til u change ur icon <3

[miraitrunks]

16 cuz i dont actually know if you have one and 88

let’s get personal.

16. simple but extremely complex. favorite band?

i think i’ve told you before that i don’t really have a “favorite” band. when i think of a favorite band, i think of like… knowing all their songs. knowing everything about them. following them for updates constantly. owning merch. i’m not like that. there’s too much music out there to be explored for me to devote myself to one group. i have a TON of artists where most of their stuff will always be a hit with me, but yeah— no favorites by definition. i listen to too much music.

88. if you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be?

dude i was thinking about how i would answer this since i saw you sent this number in. i have no idea. logically, like, the first go to answer should be some politically incorrect leader that’s just fucking shit up, but who knows what would happen were i to do that even just hypothetically?

imagine, right— i press a button and putin explodes. great, putin is gone. however now russia is trying to figure out why their world leader just exploded and if it’s an act of terrorism or an assassination attempt. who would they blame? ukraine? america? who would that action piss off? what butterfly effect would i trigger by doing that to someone? fuck it i’ll just blow myself up at this point.
