Quinlan and Aayla are the original Anakin and Ahsoka. Quinlan being Obi-Wan's age, and Aayla being seven years older than Anakin, Quinlan is only NINE years older than her. Legends Wookieepedia says he took her as his padawan when she was 10, which is patently ridiculous. Even if we age her up to a more new-canon-consistent age, that still gives us 23yo Quinlan and his 14yo padawan. Disaster duo. Terrifying gremlin pair.

#I SAID WHAT I SAID #star wars #quinlan #aayla secura #grace for ts #OBI WAN IS STILL A PADAWAN AT THIS POINT #everyone makes constant jokes nonstop but Quinlan is THE greatest master he can possibly be #everyone else is surprised. impressed. who knew quinlan 'I Have Never Been Serious In My Life' vos had this in him?#tholme been knew #he walked straight out of his knighting to go ask Aayla to be his padawan #she crossed her arms unimpressed and said 'well it took you long enough!'#i cant believe he found her and brought her to the temple as a child. i cannot believe that storyline was allowed to exist in star wars #ITS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO #the original 'the team' prototype #you cant tell me all the initiates didnt follow their latest adventures #hoping to one day be That Cool

is he a wise mentor or just jealous

#i am imagining daycare worker kuya. in his smock. squatting down to baby yakumo's level #while yakumo (just dropped off) is fighting back tears as eiden walks off. out of his sight #kuya with that impassive smile says #your emotional support human is going to die one day.#you cannot rely on anyone but yourself.#the only constant in this universe is solitude.#yakumo 'bout to become inconsolable in 3..2...#kid's gotta learn 😔#surprise! the lion den is just dante writing letters in the courtyard #there was nothing to be scared of after all 😊#um. uhnless you're scared of dante in general. which . in that case .. lol good luck #nu carnival #nu carnival eiden #nu carnival kuya #nu carnival yakumo

Another one for talking about some games I love over on Bluesky! The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Probably my favorite childhood game; I wasn't usually allowed this level of fantasy story and it had everything I could ask for: - Sassy companion - Shapeshifting - Woman gets to temporarily be a cool weird monster - Cat friends!! So many cat friends!!!!!!!

#somehow it escaped actually getting a ban on it. Ocarina of Time was banned for a long time but Twilight Princess ???? that I could play #I just was complained to a lot about how it wasn't sure if I should actually be playing it and I was just there like *sweats nervously*#it was really hard to get into video games growing up due to the constant threat of bans BUT THIS ONE!!#I PLAYED MULTIPLE TIMES AND LOVED THE HECK OUT OF #the legend of zelda #legend of zelda #loz twilight princess #fanart #loz link #loz hero's shade #loz midna #no surprise but I still have a lingering sense of anxiety as an adult when playing games that they'll get suddenly banned #it's mostly gone but sometimes it shows up

Oh, good. The people who can't read a linked article on a post they reblog, much less open a separate tab and look into something themselves, are gonna tell us what is and isn't legit

#if you are the kind of person who has REPEATEDLY shown your judgement is based on vibes and not facts #you cannot be surprised when people cast doubt on you #which is why 'reblog first and fact check later IF AT ALL' is harmful #and sorry but ADHD is not an excuse to be ignorant and reblog constant misinfo and then act like you actually care abt an issue #vagueposting #like i get that life is hard! but if you dont wanna do the work of informing yourself on a post's content before reblogging it:#DON'T REBLOG IT!#maybe just like it and come back to it later!!!#sorry but this kneejerk urge to 'spread awareness' has proven for a lot of you to just be an excuse #to reblog complete misinfo bc you dont want to do the work of making YOURSELF aware #but you wanna seem like you give a shit.#and clrly since posting is the most a lot of yall do re:activism you can't just NOT post about something!!#a lot of yall spread bullshit not awareness.#and frankly. how dare you act like adhd would give you a pass to do this AGAIN and AGAIN.#take some personal responsibility for your role in making the internet a shittier place babe!

jjk ends in 5 chapters... wow.. :"))

#for the past week I've been in a constant state of fear and anxiety over this manga and the last week's chapter really did for me...#but now that I know that the manga ends in 5 chapters... I can finally calm down #Im not even feeling disappointed (at least rn) which I thought would be the case after hearing the news...#but oddly enough I only smiled to myself and felt a sense of relief #seeing how the story is quickly wrapping up and not knowing how long we have left till the end was more anxiety inducing than I thought #but now that I know makes me feel a bit more at ease weirdly??#endings suck in general and as a rule I don't expect stories to have a satisfying ending and that's how I've always felt about jjk #gege actually surprise me in more ways than I thought and his story gave me a lot more than a I could have a asked for #whatever he planned for the ending I hope it'll leave him satisfy and happy #I am beyond grateful to gege for giving us this special story #jujutsu kaisen will always have an important place in my heart #thank you gege akutami <3 #jjk

An antiqurian and archeologist walks into a bar...

#i think they would get along! :)#they practically have the same interest-#plus i think simon deserve a break and not being in a constant danger #because at least in layton u can do some fun puzzles instead #and I'm sure simon would appreciate the somewhat less crazy/non magic world #though he probably would get surprised at pl stories plotwist #simon petrikov #professor layton #adventure time #fionna and cake #hershel layton #two sad old men missing their wife and having their fair shares of depressing backstories

thinking about how Ivan is so strict and tedious with his schedule because he probably likes having that one consistency and bit of control in his life

#alien stage #alnst ivan #alien stage ivan #alnst #am i reaching and projecting most likely but #hm..#he's like this with till too. another (unwilling halfhearted) constant in his life that he wouldnt like to lose #i think everyone in alien stage would be like this in their own way honestly #nobody really has anything to like own or something #even just having this much control would mean a lot to ivan i think #thats why he takes it so seriously #at least i hope he didnt come up with that god awful skehdule himself but i wouldnt be surprised #random brain vomit sorry crawls back to my cave and stares at patreon post like a lunatic

My name is Jacob. I'm the one who brought your ship to this island. Why?

#lost #lostedit #tvedit #lost spoilers #jacob #richard alpert #nikolatexla #define this episode: 'the constant' of richard alpert #this episode was just as good as that of desmond's. maybe even better.#i was sooo curious about richard since the first time i saw him #i always thought he was in charge of this island #but his story turned out to be much more devastating than i could ever imagine #nestor carbonell really surprised me. he must be so proud of what he did in this episode bc i couldn't hold back my tears

yakuya in MY swamp? in MY ecosystem? no . i am still in disbelief. i hope you all know that my particles are bouncing off the everything. i am using periods as punctuation but the state of my mind is naught neareth final.

#the devs really did surprise me.....i'll credit them with that #i fully believed it was gonna be rei #i looked at that silhouette. saw the chunky heels. thought of kuya #but i scoffed at myself. tch. of course not. devs wont play with their strange topbottom segregation. i'll never get the yakuya event #at least not until it's with garu so they have a yokai hella exposition event #it's gonna be rei at a specific angle to SIMULATE a kuya. he will be wearing kuya-esque heels just to spite all the kuyafans #AND YET HERE WE ARE #UNDER THE SEA NO LESS #WHAT ARE THEY DOING INVADING MY SPACE LIKE THIS #like hell i'm gonna share my zone (abyssopelagic) with those accursed sirens #i'm going lower #i'm moving to the trenches. i'm gonna slowly lose the use of my eyeball sight . i'm gonna adapt to conditions #SO MANY conditions. maybe even learn to bioluminesce #actually no. then the predators might find me. and i'll have to regain the use of my eyes in order to improve my chances of escape #perchance even enlargen them like the giant squid. living in constant fear of a fox or a snake appearing in the depths #yet i get the creeping suspicion that kuya is just going to bully yakumo (when he's not bullying eiden)#kuya gonna drop a sad story about personal sacrifice and the difficult lives he's lived #and yakumo ever the baby in comparison will stare at him with his massive saucer eyes like.... do i... deserve to feel sadness?#if i have not gone through the trials and tragedies that master kuya has???#is kuya gonna be soft yokai grandpa or is he gonna be Auntie of Hard Reality #the boy just wants to find new soup ingredients #kuya will then unveil the ethical ramifications of harvesting these specific ingredients #and using them for a purpose other than their original spiritual intent by the indigenous merfolk #along with the questionable supply chain and processes that go into creating the ingredients in the first place #(not that any ethics or spirituality rituals or stuff like that is actually enough to influence kuya's behaviour in any way)#but it'll certainly mess with yakumo!!!! and that's where all the fun is?#furrows brow. what will they do with this event.....#i am so very excited to see them interact..!#mirage of scales #yakuya

the rampant kant hate in this fandom isn't surprising but it is exasperating.

#Not only the hate #But the complete unwillingness to even try to understand him #Disappointing if I'm honest #Not surprising but disappointing #The heart killers #This character and performance is wasted on too much of this fandom and that's just sad #kant pattanawat #People say they want nuance and moral ambiguity but I'm beginning to think that only characters they like are allowed it #The rest get put into little boxes labeled bad and good and anything that conflicts with that opinion is ignored #And I think it's fine to hate characters for whatever reason but the constant hatred for only one in a group of jerks is baffling #I just feel like fandom tends to center its morality discourse on one character and it's exhausting #Character A is beloved and can do no wrong and when they do wrong there's a reason. They are allowed nuance and sympathy #However if character B upsets them they are evil and bad and any nuance is disregarded and sympathy is gone #Even when we're being hit over the head with their imo very sympathetic reasons for doing what they're doing #And I'm really new here but there does seem to be a bit of #A pattern #For who gets the sympathy and excuses for doing wrong and who does not #And that's not even touching on the hate first himself is getting because that is truly unhinged #People doing that should be ashamed of themselves - first is not kant and khaotung is not Bison and people should know that

Potential volume warning?? Maybe?? Just a lot of sudden over-enthusiastic monkey screeches and giddy hand claps (provided by yours truly). Wish I had more time on my hands to provide a clever edited segue into this video but NAH. Nah just immediately get hit with lot of incoherent ramblings which I’ve had saved on my device—all related to a singular fixation on a fictional robot guy. If you had a shred of doubt about how much I am dedicated to loving his character before, then perhaps this will change your presumption lol

….I don’t owe anyone an explanation to this insanity jskjsksp. I choose to openly expose myself in the pursuit of getting over being undeniably cringe!! No more being in denial or downplaying just how happy he makes me teehee. Pay no mind don’t even worry about it. This post never happened it was all a dream. I’m living in my blissful delusional cocoon with no shame attached thank you very much :))

But yea!! Here have some highlights/snippets from various audio recordings I keep to myself. Some are related to when I was initially introduced to Mr. Puzzles character and others are more recent. Most stem from my time looking at fanart, watching episodes, analyzing his character and whatnot. Probably won’t ever release the full things lol. It’s all very much self indulgent sillies as per usual—it’s nice having a way to preserve these emotions & visceral reactions. Why keep restricting expressing your happiness when you can let it all out? (I say this and then proceed to avoid talking openly about Mr. Puzzles irl out of worry oop). It’s no matter…posting this is only at the detrimental expense of my usual calm & collected facade. Mutuals I promise I’m usually far more normal and well adjusted then this footage shows (totally still not in denial) <<

#What is this? Rushed/sloppy art and choppy audio splicing? Not too surprising my quality has plummeted severally <<#If you saw the absurd amount of school projects complied up near the deadline you’d start panicking too #genuinely sucks because I have so much creative drive but every single time without fail school says ‘lol no’#and slowly but surely that constant pushback starts to erode the pursuit of art completely (praying that doesn’t happen to me again)#who in their right mind assumed I’d be good at juggling responsibilities? That was mistake number one /j #what if I just fail my classes so I can join the ranks of cool puzzle obsessed people huh? what then? very tempting #seriously I don’t know how you guys make time to create art regularly. I applaud you and am only a tad jealous :’)#shitpost #random #updates

I always enjoy it when people come up to me while im drawing as long as they're nice about it, and especially kids. And while the last two weeks only seemed to have obnoxious parents (at one point a kid was pointing like 'i want to be able to that!' and their parent replied 'you can't' and i was like ???? Wtf), this week there was a mom and two daughters who were really interested in art and were standing behind me while i sketched for a long while. Neither of the girls could have been much older than 10, and they were super shy, and were asking their mom questions, and i answered one of the questions. And the mom laughed and said 'see, she can hear you, don't be afraid to ask her questions!' and then i turned around and introduced myself a little and explained what i was drawing. And then they just stood and quietly watched me draw for like ten minutes, it was so sweet. 🥹

#Freebooter4ever #Also like....whenever im drawing im usually eavesdropping on various conversations around me #Adults are the funniest to listen to #Kids are mostly running around #And thinking about that lol...i realized what a weird child i was #When from the age of 6 i started going with my grandma to the kubota gardens in seattle #and we would sit and calmly draw or write for hours instead of me needing constant entertainment #I had a moment when i realized that if i had kids there would be no way to know if they would like drawing or if they would #Even be as quiet and calm as i was back then #Its not like i have not thought about having kids and how that would mean my time and choices would no longer be my own #But as i get more and more wistful over wanting kids #I catch myself thinking about stuff like this and realizing ok with a small child i probably wouldnt be able to do this anymore #And then i try to genuinely analyze whether or not i would be willing to give up whatever it is #And to my surprise the answer is usually yes #I find that im not thinking about it in terms of giving things up which is how society or advice books seem to paint it as #But rather adjusting to fit in a different kind of joy #I dunno ignore me im getting sappy over kids again
