[hath-e]

Everytime I'm reminded of the Chaos Impulse a part of me is so upset that it's not a official kit or that it wasn't animated

The backpack, the waist"cape", the double shield pincers, the beautiful coloring, ahhhhh, why Bandai whyyyy, it's so good, why can't it be real

That is awesome.

Black Chaos Impulse

Kinda’ sorta’ a fun side project, kinda’ sorta’ not.

I was playing around with the idea of making my own Chaos Impulse Gundam. Wound up adding parts to it’s containers so it can use effect parts as well as an added wire so the hatches for the missiles can open. I gave it 4 containers because I thought it was cool.

Full thoughts on Oumasai? You mentioned them being terrible exes in your heart in one of your reblog post tags.

Generally, my brain has a few working settings for them: Fluffy, Angsty (but still sorta sweet), Angsty (as in the best metaphor for this is two airplanes crashing into eachother), "They exist but like the plot is more important than them and they have other stuff to deal with" and "Shuichi gets stuck in terrible situations with only Kokichi and they somehow make it work even though they've gotten extremely close to all the previous options in this list except the fluffy one and have encountered death multiple times". Btw, an AO3 author has fics where they have this mutual rivalry where they both hate eachother in their Oumota fics and its so funny that it deserves to be a runner-up on this list even though I don't have it in my own AUs. Oh, and Phantom Thief AUs are fun as well, though I'm not sure *how* canon they are cause in the game Shuichi constantly goes between liking his work and respecting his uncle, and hating his job and the pain it causes him.

They're like the one pairing I can't quite pin down as to what I'd like it to be. In my head, they're happy together, but also they hate eachother and are really only in the same spaces cause of their mutual friends, but they're also constantly up to shenangians with eachother and enjoy the other's company. It's a pairing that's really great to see in a positive portrayal when done properly, but is also really great to see in a negative portrayal when done properly. Maybe Shuichi feels sympathy for Kokichi after he solves "the puzzle", maybe he just moves onto the next one and doesn't even give him another look. Maybe Kokichi hates him after seeing him give sympathy to a literal assassin, just because his friend said so, but not a liar, even though as a detective, he should have seen firsthand how much damage murderers cause.

Maybe this is too far into fandom territory, and based on canon, and Shuichi doesn't really like investigating stuff all that much if his life doesn't depend on it, and they're getting nowhere because he's just gonna take stuff at facial value while Kokichi facepalms on the inside.

I also made an AU that's kinda a study on their opposing character traits and ideologies but I'll send that in a separate ask since its mostly off-topic.

Anyway, I really wanna know your full thoughts on this subject cause there's so much room for exploration of both of their characters through this dynamic, whether they like eachother or not.

I definitely need to tag this so it can be filtered, but it's also me talking about how I do not like a lot of this ship, and how I view them as an inherently toxic duo, so uh, check under the cut at your own peril

Oh boy, anyone who knows my blog knows I do not care for this ship, I am vocal about this but I also try to be polite. If it weren't for the fact I'm a sucker for Kokichi being cute it would basically never be on my blog. I do not think they work well in a relationship and I feel most of the time their personalities get stripped down to force it to work. I cannot stand fluff of the two outside of going "cute picture of kokichi smiling go brrr and also shuichi is there i guess"

However, I find the idea of them being a sort of "wrong person right time" to be interesting if done well. They're a trauma bond waiting to happen honestly. I feel like neither of them really see the other as like, a real person? More on Shuichi's end then Kokichi but definitely still somewhat on Kokichi's.

Shuichi sees Kokichi as a mystery, a nuisance, a confusion, kokichi's well being is second to the mystery, kokichi is someone to be stopped or placated, not a person, but like he says in canon, "the embodiment of a lie." Even when he gets closer to Kokichi in free time events or love across the universe, there's this exasperation. He's drawn to the intrigue, he's not drawn to Kokichi as a person. Kokichi is a natural phenomenon, like a tornado, inevitable, destructive, and intriguing, but not a person.

Meanwhile Kokichi only really takes an interest in Shuichi for all the things Shuichi doesn't want to be. The logical detective, the sherlock to his moriarty, someone he can wind up like a little toy robot and then watch go. He enjoys Shuichi's company, but he's not really coming down to meet Shuichi on equal ground y'know? He's still placing himself above Shuichi as the one tugging strings and fixing things to his liking. Kokichi wants the chase, but the chase doesn't really require actually opening up to Shuichi or treating him well.

or for a tldr;

This is absolutely not a mindset or dynamic for a functional relationship

So I find anything that doesn't to some degree acknowledge that fact to be bland and often ooc. These two cannot have a standard fluffy dynamic to me from where they are in canon, and attempts to do so that haven't earned it often draw an eye roll from me.

However, the dynamic as bitter exes? Absolutely perfect, the crash and burn from this must be spectacular. Shuichi goes a step too far in figuring out the mystery, Kokichi ignores Shuichi's opinions one too many times, Shuichi snitches on Kokichi to someone, Kokichi gets frustrated when Shuichi tries to step out of the bounds of the game in his mind...

Aka It's fucking imploding, and you just KNOW they'd be absolutely catty bitter exes, they're cyberstalking the other, Kokichi because he thinks its funny and he's bad at letting go, and Shuichi because he's also bad at letting go but he's pretending its to keep an eye on Kokichi and make sure he's not doing something messed up. Shuichi refusing to ever use the connections Kokichi brought him in his detective work even if it makes things more perilous or risky out of pride but does make sure Kokichi knows he's not using them.

Just, absolute disaster of a breakup, I am sitting with popcorn watching the fireworks, there's so many places you could take that and they're all interesting. I find embracing this toxicity and playing into them as a bad match who only tries to drag the other down, even unintentionally, who happened to meet at the right time to get attached to be very interesting.

Maybe they're forced to work together for a case because an innocent life is at stake and Shuichi has to swallow his pride. Maybe they keep rebounding off each other unable to resist the allure of easy drunk hatesnogging. Maybe Kokichi genuinely gets hurt and the only person around he knows well enough to be able to get some help with is Shuichi. Maybe Kokichi crashes Shuichi's wedding ten years later. Maybe Kokichi gets caught and imprisoned and Shuichi is the only detective willing to talk to him as Kokichi taunts him for being so predictable and being a lapdog who found a new owner. Maybe Shuichi starts dating again and Kokichi tries to homewreck by suddenly springing back into his life. Maybe they have healthy communication about their issu- HA maybe not that one. (this is a joke that could also be interesting)

Stories where they both have an ideology they want to impose on the other, Kokichi cannot be made to be good in the way Shuichi perceives as good without destroying everything that is Kokichi but also Shuichi cannot be made to be good in the way Kokichi perceives as good without destroying everything that Shuichi is. However neither would ever let themselves back down and just accept their differences, because that too would be a loss.

Unstoppable force meets Immovable object until they inevitably split apart messily with claw marks dug into the other. Consumption hiding as understanding on both sides. They bring out the worst in each other, Kokichi brings out Shuichi's catty prideful side while Shuichi brings out Kokichi's more controlling and manipulative side.

There is no respect, no true consideration of another persons needs and wants, only a game with one potential winner. At least, that's my own reading of the two and a potential relationship. So yeah, I basically see them as terrible exes. Neither can be what the other needs, and neither honestly really even wants to be what the other needs in the first place. No teamwork, only competition.

I will show no mercy for you🎵 you have no mercy for me🎵the only thing that I ask🎵 love me mercilessly 🎵

I am developing such a love hate relationship with Gundam.

I love the model kits. But not when THE PIECES FLY ACROSS THE WORLD AND I CAN'T FIND THEM

My dad brought me my Nativity scene that was in storage and was confused why I wanted it back so badly.

This was why.

I feel bad for Athrun. He’s got a blind spot for the Archangel and its crew because, yeah, they’re his friends, but they’ve refused to make their intentions clear, and Kira and the crew have refused to go back to ORB like Athrun asked them to originally. There’s only so much leeway you can give them, buddy.

“The Freedom is a dangerous ACE Pilot who doesn’t listen to reason and won’t cooperate with anyone. If he won’t even listen to you, his best friend, what hope does anyone else have of reasoning with him? He stands at the epitome of what we’re trying to fight in these wars. Peace through force is no peace at all. It’s just quiet.”

When I first saw this Poll I voted for Destiel because I thought it would be really funny if it won but Im glad it didn’t becthis is honestly way funnier

This poll is a celebration of fandom and fandom history; we're aware that there are certain issues with many of the listed pairings and sources, but they are a part of that history. Please do not take this as an endorsement, and refrain from harassment.

Gunpla building

[copperbadge]

Because I came up in fandom before the “reader insert” fic was really a thing, for a significant period of time when scrolling through AO3, I thought Y/N was a an actual canonical character, not the placeholder (”your name”) that the reader would find-and-replace with their name in the document before reading. I’m sure not all readers do that, some just learn to read Y/N as their name, but I’m aware a good many do.

So I assumed it was a canonical character and since I was mostly seeing it on crossovers involving some form of anime, I assumed it was an anime character. Probably from a show with gundams, that seemed to make sense. Somehow I managed to build up this little headcanon where Y/N, a character from a gundam anime, stood for Yes/No. Given that Yes/No is a binary similar to 1/0, it was probably a robot, and probably a somewhat sexy lady robot, because well, anime. 

All of which is to say someday I’m definitely going to write a novel starring a robot named Y/N and their quest to pilot a larger, less sentient robot than themselves against a yet to be determined villain. My primary goal is to write a cool story about a robot but my secondary goal is to cause chaos in the Y/N tag on AO3. Just for fun.

Given the common thread between all of my favorites, neither of them live.

1. Yes they have to fight, 2. Tell me who’s fighting who in the tags! (I’ll add the most ridiculous combos in a reblog)

Currently thinking about G-Witch, and how the only actual flaw with Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury is that we didn't get MORE Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury.

Specifically about how I really wish we got more to do with Sophie and Norea.

Specifically-Specifically about how I REALLY with we'd gotten to see these two as essentially the 'evil' version of Sulemio.

I mean just imagine having more of these two bouncing around causing chaos and mayhem while having a twisted, unhinged, but still cute version of Suletta's and Miorine's dynamic.

And of course doing the whole 'obsessive villainous love-triangle with the heroine and her love-interest' trope, except this one is more of a love-square XD
