watching oikawa play volleyball was like stargazing. you already knew the stars were pretty, but when he managed to land a jump serve, or set a perfectly-arched ball to his wing spiker, it was akin to a comet shooting through the sky — fleeting and momentary, but no less gorgeous.
of course, tooru hits every ball and makes every set with you, his biggest cheerleader, in mind. he gives you that “this is for you” look before his hand connects mid-air with the ball and makes a deafening impact with the other team’s court. even amidst his loudest fangirls, he’s learned to break most of his old habits, including soaking up the undivided attention like a sponge, his eyes now trained on you and you alone as you send him a subtle smile, his brown eyes twinkling under the gym lights with pride that you, above anyone else, watched him play like he was a constellation, out-of-reach and captivating and shining that much brighter just because you saw him amidst the starry sky of other players.
tooru knew he was great, and he’d never doubt that for a second, but it was when you reaffirmed he was great — “you were amazing out there!” was all it took — that a bit of his narcissism chipped away, a slightly softer layer spilling out in the form of a barrage of appreciative kisses to your cheeks and an energetic cackle at your complaints that he was sweaty and he scooped you into a hug, his heart full and content with where he was.

You know the one point above all others that leaves me convinced Bad Batch season 3 underwent some massive rewrites?
The time skip in episode 1.
Now, the time skip could have worked fine if there had been any attempt later in the season to meaningfully follow up on the vital conversations that apparently took place during said time skip. But that's not what happened.
And I have too much confidence in the writers' vision/abilities to believe they originally intended to use the time skip the way it ended up being used: to completely gloss over the aftermath of Tech's fall to the point that the audience is left wondering - maybe Tech's family/friends have already processed it and moved on? Or maybe they haven't?? Who knows! Let's leave it super vague all season long and have the audience interpret it as they will! Pick your preferred grieving method and tell yourself that's what all these characters did during the time lapse, or if that doesn't work for you then just "something something stoic soldiers."
To give a clear example of what the writers are capable of: Mayday has the distinction of being recognized as THE tipping point to Crosshair finally turning on the Empire and later is given a satisfying, if heartwrenching, callback scene that decisively provides closure for his loss. Remember, Mayday is a character in ONE episode. Just ONE. In the grand scheme of the show, he probably qualifies as a tertiary character. Crosshair knows him for, what, 2 days at most? And yet Mayday is still definitively recognized as a key influential figure in Crosshair's life.
I love Mayday. He deserves all the recognition and more. I bring all this up simply to compare to how the show handles Tech's death, especially for Crosshair.
Tech is Crosshair's brother, was raised with him from birth and lived and worked with him day in and day out for over a decade, and for years they were in life-and-death situations together. Unlike with Mayday, Crosshair wasn't there when Tech died - died on a mission he had pushed for to save Crosshair from consequences of his own choices. Not only was Crosshair not there for Tech in his final moments, but the last time he saw Tech, Crosshair was arguing with him along with the rest of his brothers. Vitally important as Mayday is to Crosshair, Tech is even more so (or should be). Given all this, I'm supposed to believe the writers' grand plan all along was to skip over the critical moment where Crosshair finds out about Tech, spend the rest of the season ignoring all other opportunities to address it, and throw in one line during the finale ("Clone Force 99 died with Tech") that somehow manages to simultaneously deprive us of any semblance of catharsis for Crosshair AND completely miss the point of why Tech had sacrificed himself in the first place??
Nope. I don't believe it. There were forced rewrites on a time crunch. I REFUSE to believe the writers responsible for the near-perfection that is Bad Batch seasons 1-2 would, on their own, so thoroughly botch something as crucial to the show as Crosshair dealing with Tech's (supposed) death. There had to have been some kind of outside interference.
(I am clinging to the theory that the rewrites were part of a bigger plan to save some plot points for continuation in another project; but the point still stands that there had to have been significant rewrites in the first place.)
And since there would have been little to no reason to take out scenes with proper closure for Tech's fall during the rewrites if the original intention was indeed for Tech to be dead, I conclude yet again that Tech isn't actually dead.
I will say this for the time skip: it is what first pushed me into writing Bad Batch fanfiction. So there's that.
#the bad batch#star wars the bad batch#tbb critical#i admire the creatives' abilities too much to think they originally planned on plot points falling apart the way they did in season 3#in other news#tech lives#because it's the only thing that makes sense#not to mention makes the story end in a satisfying way#the show didn't provide satisfying closure on this so tech's obviously not dead#bring tech back#it's been a few days therefore it's time for another tech lives post

hate interacting with the widespread fandom about 05x16 for obvious reasons but it is such a key episode to me like. sam sees a memory of dean and his mother. he could be jealous of their relationship, instead he acknowledges the familial pressure dean has experienced since he was a toddler. dean sees a memory of sam leaving for college (and also being disowned!! and by proximity, by dean too!!!). he tells sam that this was the worst night of his life, he does not acknowledge the struggle sam must have also been experiencing. it’s so crucial to me in the way that they consider their relationship to each other where sam is willing to accept/recognize dean’s struggles and try to help him, but dean isn’t, because he views that as proof that he “failed.”
#in a 05x16 kinda mood tonight#and I really don’t want to defend dean’s claim that sam “ditched them”#because I have had the same thing said to me about the same thing and it feels fucking awful#but it really makes sense for his character#he has to believe that stanford was a failure on sam’s part or else it was actually a failure on dean’s#which is obviously. not true.#did not think I’d see the day where I accidentally make a post all about dean#this is a new one#but anyways. yeah#dean is incapable of acknowledging sam’s issues that he might not know about#because of his own belief of what it means for him#tagging#dean crit#just in case#sw#dw#star notes

A great cast of characters. Honestly I could read tons more stories set in this world.#it’s very slow building and meandering narratively; focusing on the complex journey of the main character#didn’t love the audio narration tbh - it felt like some lines are read with the wrong emphasis or tone? but I got used to it after a while#So this has one of my absolute favourite tropes (bodysharing.) unfortunately it turns it into a romance which is. well.#it just doesn’t hit the same if you make it romantic!! so that kinda made it change traintracks from being on a direct line to#potentially 5 stars to a whole different station where i do not live. lol.#I SUPPOSE it’s a well developed relationship and I’d prefer romances more like that than instalove I guess.#I did love their dynamic; too; but suddenly realising it was romantic threw me for a loop.

What is it that the Rat Grinders actually want exactly? Or at least, what does Kipperlilly want since she's the one we know the most about.
At the top of the season it seemed like she wanted to Be The Best at school and Be Recognized in a very Tracy Flick/Sara Berry kind of way and was just going to crazy lengths to get there because this is a world where you help a dragon kidnap girls so you can be Prom Queen and life goes on. But now we know that the Rat Grinders are a part of Porter's larger plan and one of the major steps of that plan is completely abolishing Aguefort as an institution.
It's clear what Porter gets out of this. He gets to be a god and he gets to continue his imperialistic family legacy. And I would maybe get what Kipperlilly would get out of this is she were the Cleric/Paladin of the plan. She'd get to be the new god's champion, like she was gushing to Lucy. That's maybe worth something to an achievement hunting, Type A individual.
But she's not gonna get to be the best student at Aguefort if Aguefort doesn't exist anymore. Hell, Elmville won't really exist anymore. Is Porter planning on opening a new Adventuring School in Rage Elmville and she gets to be the god Principal's pet? Does she think he's gonna make things "fair" for her somehow? How? Retroactively killing her parents? Does she want to use the powers she cheesed from the easy XP he drip fed her to be a renown adventurer? Kinda hard to pull that off when everyone knows you were part of the plan that doomed the town. Maybe she thought they were going to get away with it without being implicated? Does she literally not want anything other than a chance to kill the Bad Kids? Or even pettier, to just to be stronger than Riz? Is that worth it to her? To damn the whole town just so she can say that she beat Riz once? Did she want something concrete at one point but at this point she's just lost in the sauce and doing whatever the next task is without knowing what she'd even do with a victory if she got it? Did she already get what she wanted in the free XP and now she's just paying her end of the bargain?
I'm just very unsure about what her version of a happy ending is here.
#dimension 20#d20#fantasy high#kipperlilly copperkettle#i was gonna save this for a recap but I may do the last 2 recaps put together bc they're battle eps#so we'll see#if porter was literally just like do you want a chance to kill her rivals and they were like boy do I! that'd be nuts#I have to assume there was more to it than that but idk man#even if the RG's have rage stars I think that means they're influenced not mind controlled puppets#I assume she has goals and desires#I just have no idea what they could be at this point in the story#and if it's just to be stronger then woof#crazy reason to damn your town to being rage city#in her mind what is her place in the endgame?#and what would be 'fair' to her?#even before she ended up in this plot what did she want that she wasn't getting?#like in her world what should they do to compensate for her not having a dead dad?#curve her grade?#kill her dad?#like practically what did she want?#i think it would have made sense if kipperlilly was doing a kind of syndrome thing#making up threats to defeat#inventing her own plot hooks#but this plan doesn't seem very mastermind rogue of her#I guess blind rage isn't great for evil plans#also for that matter what's up with jace

Okay, I know I’m late to the party and this has probably been discussed to death, but I have thoughts and they need out.
I’ve been a Star Trek fan all my life so I’m very familiar with writers on a show going “You know what would be a cool idea? A surprise reveal that retroactively changes everything. Plot holes? What do you mean plot holes? It’s called texture.” But even with that background the Iris is Carlos’ secret wife plot was one of the dumbest, least well thought out reveals I have ever seen and that includes Spock getting a surprise secret sibling twice.
It’s just created this weird Discworld-logic phenomenon where Carlos in season 4 has been married to Iris for nearly ten years, but they definitely weren’t married last season (or at least in 1&2). And here’s the thing that bugs me so much: I understand why they wrote it and it works for the characters, it just makes absolutely no sense within the established canon of the show. Like, do I believe Carlos is the type who would get hetero married to his best friend to placate his parents and then not tell his boyfriend about it until he absolutely had to? I love Carlos, but yes, 100% he would do that. Unfortunately we have absolutely no indication that he so much as met Iris before 4x01. The way Carlos story had been told before it makes no sense narratively or emotionally.
In season one Carlos is introduced explicitly as Michelle’s friend and it’s heavily implied they only met through the investigation of her sister’s disappearance. While that is never explicitly stated and I’m willing to suspend my disbelieve here, the fact is that Carlos is involved in and contributes significantly to the investigation, an investigation he wouldn’t get anywhere near if he was Iris’ husband, in fact he would likely be a main suspect (from a police perspective the situation is that a (white) woman, married to her (latino) husband disappeared after a fight with her boyfriend. Once she was presumed dead the most likely scenario is that either the boyfriend or the husband did it).
But even if we neglect realism in proceedings (which, fair in a show that has a fucking volcano in the middle of Austin), Carlos being best friends and married to Iris would have had a different emotional impact. For one thing his relationship with Michelle would be different. As we see him, Carlos is a friend to Michelle, supporting her in her loss, but there is no indication that they share that loss. And if Iris had been Carlos best friend you cannot tell me Michelle wouldn’t have thrown that in his face everytime he tried to get her to accept that Iris might be dead. Michelle is not one to refrain from a little guilt tripping if it gets her what she wants. But she is also an empathetic person, who would have told her friend when they found Iris alive. (Technically the hospital would have probably called him that they had his wife but) there should have at least been an attempt to contact him when she does find her. As it is we don’t even see Carlos find out about Iris being alive and Michelle literally tells Owen before she even considers telling Carlos (literally she doesn’t even look at him when he comes to the firehouse to pick up TK).
And it continues in season two. If Carlos was married to Iris (and his parents canonically know about it, which is of course the point) then his relationship with his parents in season 2 doesn’t make any sense.
Carlos is estranged from his parents because he believes they don’t accept him being gay and them not having talked about it since he came out to them means they’re still hoping it was just a phase and he would change his mind. The thing is if Carlos came out as gay to his parents at 17 and then married a woman 2-3 years later that hope/opinion would be entirely justified because to them that would have been exactly what happened. Even if they know the marriage is basically over, he still married a woman after he told them he never would so he must have changed his mind, right? How are they supposed to know the marriage was the error and not the coming out, especially if they never talked about it. There is a huge difference between ‘I don’t want to rub their noses in [something they might not like me for]’ and ‘they think I’m not actually gay because I went so far as to marry a woman to make them happy’. One is not advertising your queerness were you think it’s not welcomed the other is deliberately stepping back in the closet. In the latter case it makes no sense for Carlos parents to accept his sexuality and relationship with TK without at least asking about Iris and confusion at meeting Carlos ‘friend from work’ would have been justified.
Tl:dr Carlos being best friends with and married to Iris doesn’t make sense with anything established in seasons 1 and 2. It doesn’t work for his relationships with the people who would have known about it and it doesn’t work from a purely practical this-is-how-the-world-works standpoint either. Carlos in the early seasons did not know Iris and had no relationship with her beyond her being his friend’s missing sister.
#thing is#I didn't hate what they did with it#I hated it because it didn't make a lick of sense#and was so obviously an 'we need to create drama out of thin air'#when there are at least four tragically underused characters running around#I get it we all love tarlos and the kidnapping ep was great and I even liked Iris (or maybe I just like the actress)#But like make half an effort to make it make sense#long post#911 lone star#carlos reyes#meta

are you arguing that bi mike believers, unlabeled mike believers, and those who are undecided are homophobic?
no. i’m not arguing that any person or sets of people are homophobic. i do think that there are certain avenues of thought that come up often in arguments against a definitive gay mike reading which stem from homophobic biases that, given the benefit of the doubt, the people arguing them may not realize are homophobic or even realize that they hold those biases.
believing that mike is bi or being undecided about it doesn’t mean you’re homophobic. obviously. however, plainly acknowledging that mike canonically does not exhibit attraction to women and then insisting that he could still be attracted to women in spite of that, to me, indicates a (possibly subconscious) bias against men who are not attracted to women. if your instinct when confronted with a character who presents a categorical lack of opposite-gender attraction, concurrent with active displays of same-gender attraction, is to round up every possible alternative explanation, all equally hypothetical and unsupported by canon, to avoid coming to the logical conclusion of that specific narrative dichotomy (homosexuality), then all i’m asking is that you examine what biases you might be holding onto that lead you to that reaction.
#if you do believe mike was attracted to el then this is not about you. but this ask was in reference to my tags on james' post#in which i was talking about people who believe mike is bi but was simply never attracted to el. THAT viewpoint is the one that makes no#narrative sense unless you're holding some sort of personal preference or bias toward bi mike bc the only POSSIBLE claim for bi mike in#canon is his apparent attraction to el. if you just like bi mike better it's not necessarily homophobia. you might just want him to be bi#bc you're bi. but if that's the case then PLEASE i beg you stop bringing headcanons to canon debates. they're irrelevant.#(there are other homophobic biases that come into play when people start insisting that mike MUST have been attracted to el bc of certain#things he did or ways he acted that largely come back to gold star gay rhetoric and a general ignorance of the nuances of the homosexual#experience but i've talked about that before and i won't get into it here)#thanks for the ask anon i love going off about gay mike#gay mike wheeler#mikesbasementasks

I've seen a few posts about how mandos hate child endangerment...
Guys
That's fanon
There is no indication that mandalorians hate endangering children anymore than any other group, culture, individual or responsible/sensible parent
If anything the opposite might be true, in both canon and legends it seems that mandalorians (the warriors anyways) consider a certain amount of endangerment to be acceptable-if not tacitly encouraged-in child rearing
#this was inspired by a post saying that Satine's hatred of child endangerment is the most mando thing about her#like no#that's not a mando thing#that's a satine thing#and it makes sense#how many children did she see get sent off to die in the civil wars?#and was told it was ok#warrior cultures do not typically place much value in a chid's safety#usually they see that as coddling#and conversly they see endangerment as a good thing because in their eyes it teaches kids to be tough#wooloo-writes#wooloo writes#star wars#sw#mando critical#mandalorian critical#anti mandalorian#anti mandalorians#anti mando

SPOILERS BECAUSE I CAN'T HELP MYSELF YOU'VE BEEN WARNED
Dave Filoni really gave us a whole new freaking galaxy, lil space rock crabby bois, a new cute wolf thing, the Crimson Marauder (?), the Nightsisters ALIVE, and THRAWN AND EZRA ALL IN THE SAME EPISODE!!!
I'll be honest, I kinda thought we'd get Thrawn, but once I saw him in all his glory I thought there was no way Dave would give us Ezra too?! Surely we'd have to wait at least another week before we saw our little Rebel again. But no, we got everything!
ALSO HUYANG SAID THE THING.
#Filoni really said “so you know how I did the ultimate Clone Wars fanservice#but in a way that totally makes sense to both canon and the immediate story?#Yeah I'm gonna do the same thing but with Rebels this week“#ahsoka spoilers#spoilers#spoliers#star wars rebels ezra#star wars rebels#sw rebels#star wars the clone wars#star wars ahsoka#ahsoka#star wars#sabine wren#ezra bridger#thrawn#grand admiral thrawn#morgan elsbeth#nightsisters#pathway to peridea#dave filoni#baylan skoll#shin hati#natasha liu bordizzo#eman esfandi#lars mikkelsen

pause… i know i said i would make an everlark west side story au but after running into SO many problems (like, what kind of name is finnick? cos its surely not puerto rican), i present this:
mr and mrs everdeen west side story au! not in the sense that this is set in 1950s nueva york, but in the sense that a lot of young boys in the seam (like, not old enough to be in the mines) start picking up work in merchant towns, which sets up the rival gang conflict that eventually snowballs into west side story worthy events. ft mr mellark filling chino’s shoes, haymitch as bernardo, and his girl as anita. it won’t be a perfect match, considering that mrs everdeen’s spongebob looking self would be filling maria’s role, so to put it simply maybe it would be like a gender swapped west side story set in district 12. there’s still the games, there’s still the quell, and there’s still drama as d12’s future revolutionaries figure out who, exactly, the enemy is
#okay the last part got dramatic lol#but omg at first i was sad that finnick and annie wouldn’t be in this au if i moved in to d12#but then i remembered something that i had to address in the teen beach movie au (aka the watered down version of a wss au):#mr and mrs everdeen already did the star crossed lovers thing first#woah! don’t hate me for saying that#and also there’s not enough mr and mrs everdeen content out there#and also i want to write more for them before sotr comes out#mrs everdeen#mr everdeen#lmk if that’s something you’d wanna see! <3 ik these wss posts don’t do too well but i think im really content w this idea#it would have felt disingenuous to have it set in irl nueva york#will make a more detailed post on this later cos the way i have it rn does not make sense to have haymitch as bernardo#but i will be taking some liberties
