also, it occurred to me that make out sessions with astarion would be absolutely crazy

like once he gets really into it, pressing his face into the partner's, holding them close and then... he doesn't need to breathe, so he'd likely get carried away and leave his partner gasping and completely breathless

Shikako fandom is like if a few many eyed angels descended and went "god is dead, but worry not. we will take care of things from here."

Kei fandom is like thinking the room you're in is crowded with people, but actually it's just one person with fifteen microphones.

So we can all agree that that hug was an ‘I still love you hug’ right?

Colin Bridgerton is a man of his word.

He made two claims:

Claim 1: he would never court Penelope Featherington.

Claim 2: He would help Penelope find a husband.

And he made good on both of them 😏

I'm so in love with the idea of transgirl Sanji. I feel like she would come back after two years and the crew would be so excited for her, but it would be a big adjustment.

She doesn't swear as much as she used to, she isn't as aggressive (though she still fights with Zoro constantly), she's quitting smoking (doesn't need the nicotine to keep her calm all the time, though it takes a few tries), and doesn't do the swirly hearts thing anymore (I like to think it was misplaced jealousy. "Women are the best and I'm not one but I can ADMIRE how GREAT they are because that's what men do). She sings while she cooks sometimes, old lullabies her mother used to sing to her.

If she ever encountered her shitty biological family again Judge and her brothers would probably be absolute dogshit about it and before she can try to think of something to say the Strawhats are already shitkicking them into the sun. Riju tells her she looks so much like their mother and she starts to cry.

I just love the idea that all her broken pieces start to realign and heal, and it's a long road but she's so much happier

A major missed opportunity in Jaysteph stories is having Cass play the 'straight man.' She thinks Steph is out of her mind for getting with Jason and actively disapproves and sabotages their relationship.

You can have Jason grow on her like mould, but it's funnier if he just doesn't. 30 years into their marriage, Cass is holding Steph's granddaughter, and she still thinks Steph can do better than Jason.

I KNEW I WASN'T INSANE and maybe this is old news but listen to the part in The Underworld where Odysseus's drowned men are screaming to him, "When does a man become a monster? 558 men who died under your command"--you can hear ATHENA'S PIANO IN THE BACKGROUND because not only is she someone he's lost ("I lost my best friend, my mentor, my mom") their deaths were the direct consequence of Odysseus not listening to her

"This day, you sever your own head..." And the heads of his men with him.

my favorite thing about fantasy high is that YOU KNOW SHITTY ABUSIVE PARENTS NEVER GET THAT REDEMPTION!!!!!!!

Too many narratives try to tell us that we should always forgive our parents, even if they've horrifically hurt us, but fantasy high?? yeah no brennan is like:

LET KIDS KILL THEIR SHIT PARENTS!!!!!!!

Replaying from the beginning, I don't think I'll ever get over the fact that Astarion actually expected us to not immediately clock that he's a vampire. And I know this has been said before, but it's so hilarious.

He's over there, thinking himself suave and secretive, with such decor as...

A clearly bloody glass cup sitting right in front of his tent, in a puddle of blood, as the very first thing you see

another bloody goblet at his feet, with stains that do not look anything like wine on his white carpet

jars of blood inside his open tent, complete with a very clear bloodstain on the pallet under his bedroll

this clearly labeled bloodbank jar, covered in bloodstains, just on the table right next to him

this veritable dinner table napkin covered in blood, and of course, the pièce de résistance,

the fucking mirror in clear view, angled perfectly so that if he wasn't a vampire, you should be able to see his ass in it in premier plan when approaching from the campfire.

Not only is he very clearly a vampire, but he's also an excessively messy eater, which honestly makes the fact that he is only revealed on the third night a downright humiliating admonishment of the party's collective intelligence.

(Though, armed with the knowledge that he cannot seem to keep blood in his mouth, there is also some real potential here for the first act of physical tenderness he experiences in centuries to be the player character just... absently wiping a drop of their blood off his chin with their hand after a feeding.)
