While I’m talking, Cloud almost killing Tifa in Gongaga is not just a ‘would that be fucked up or what’ moment or even because Tifa has the true memories/proof to counter Sephiroth’s lies (though, that is part of it). It’s also because killing Tifa is the antithesis of who Cloud is. It’s the antithesis of the little boy who put his life on the line to save her and then dedicated his life to becoming strong enough to protect her. The antithesis of his promise to be there for her and the feelings behind it. “Cloud” and “Tifa’s killer” cannot coexist. “Cloud,” the boy defined by a desire to protect Tifa, cannot survive this. That’s why Sephiroth is trying so hard to get Cloud to kill Tifa. Sephiroth could kill her himself and that would still be majorly bad for Cloud’s true identity as he’d still lose his only tether to reality and the symbol of his conscience. But it wouldn’t be as effective as having Cloud do the honors. Sephiroth needs Cloud to kill the light in his own heart. He needs Cloud to kill his self. And there is no more definitive way than this.

rewatching s1 this time around has actually left me sooooo fascinated by buck and abby's relationship??????? bc what we know of it in its aftermath is actually completely visible on screen during the season???

in episode 6 when abby is talking to carla about a potential valentines day date with buck she outright says she's fine with him being a boytoy and it just being something casual so she can feel good in herself again and is almost complaining that buck is taking it so seriously by trying to go slow. and the thing is, i don't think her stance on that ever changes???????

she absolutely cares about him and appreciates him for everything he does for her (both in helping support her with her mom and what he does in helping her find her way back to herself) but i don't think she ever really wanted or needed him to be more than that????

on the flipside, you have buck who's experiencing feelings he's never felt before and is so totally overwhelmed by this woman who's making him realise real connection is possible and it feels a million times better than the way he's vied for people's attention before. and there's something a little heartbreaking in the way he questions if he's ready for it to be something real. because bobby encourages him to step into the relationship fully and in the end he does do that

but abby doesn't really want him to???

so you have buck, fully committed and ready to be the partner he thinks abby needs, and abby, who is so completely unable to be that partner in return because she wants to navigate the next stage of her life alone

and aksdjfh it's just!!!! so!!!!! interesting!!!!!!!!! and i am once again BEGGING someone to make a gifset/video/edit/anything for them with reckless driving by lizzy mcalpine

So close to writing one of those “betting on wrightworth” fics where the twist is that Klapollo are krisnix truthers

Just like. Apollo references Phoenix’s bad taste in men at some bar association event only for everyone around him to immediately get on his case for insulting Edgeworth.

Athena’s like “don’t be rude Apollo, Mr. Edgeworth could hear!!”

Apollo: why does it matter if Edgeworth hears. I’m sure he knows all about Mr. Wright’s horrible romantic decisions :\

Kay steps in and is like woah buddy Mr. Edgeworth may be a stick in the mud but Mr. Wright couldn’t do better than him!!

Apollo is like. Yeah. Because Edgeworth is a catch?? I don’t know what you’re trying to say.

Klavier butts in and asks if Kay seriously thinks Wright would date their boss?? Like huh??

Klavier and Apollo are now being treated to the most incredulous looks known to man.

Apollo (now convinced that people are trying to fuck w him): Mr. Wright would never make a good romantic choice in his life. Don’t try to pull one over on me. I was there for the divorce.

Kay: they got DIVORCED????

Sebastian: they got MARRIED??????

Klavier’s like [fake German voice] nein Herr Forehead I know for a fact it wasn’t a divorce. Because I had to dispose of the unused engagement ring.

Apollo is like finally some gossip that makes fucking sense while everyone else is like you think PHOENIX WRIGHT was fucking your BROTHER???

I’ve ranted on the sniper part like three times and yet I want to continue to do so and repeat everything this whole fandom has already discussed. To sit on a cloud in the sky and take a fucking megaphone and just shout about it. How wordless it is. How their communication has already hit that point. HOW HE WAS SO. FUCKING. ZONED IN ON HER. ONLY ON HER. NOTHING ELSE WAS AROUND. IT WAS COMPLETE TUNNEL VISION ON HER AND HER ALONE. How he knows where she’s going and knows every infected to hit to keep her safe and clear her path. How he sits and waits and watches the van for any infected that would dare get close to her. How he started shaking when that clicker got in the van. How he was so full of debilitating fear over her life. His hands sweating, tense shoulders, the hitched and short breaths, and obviously a sky-rocketed heartbeat (and probably blood pressure). How he relaxes when he sees she got out of the van. How he never missed a single shot, despite what he tells her in episode 3- “happens more often than you think.” How he knows she’s going after Henry and Sam and he slightly nods and that’s her sign to move and how Joel takes out every infected in her path on her way there. How his breathing has steadied because he can see her now. He can protect her now. How it’s all just complete dad behavior and he’s still going to try and pull his stunt next episode 🤡 baby you’re in love already, please just accept it

This week fucking blows. Watched the Wynonna Earp movie only to find they killed off Doc, Bucktommy breakup, and then the creeping dread of January is just there, fucking LOOMING, waiting for me.

every two weeks i watch an hour of downton abbey (DO NOT SPOIL MEEE IM ONLY ON SEASON 2) so anyways i am THINKING ABOUT lord and lady harrington and their only son, robin a house maid, and eddie who only just recently managed to get a job as a chauffeur. he absolutely hates driving around the young lord and his fiancee, nancy, UNTIL he learns that it was a match of convenience and lady nancy actually spends so much time at the house to see robin ohoho (the plan is that steve and nancy get married and robin becomes her lady's maid or whatever) but then ofc eddie happens SMH

(hopper the most two faced butler of all time, joyce as housekeeper)

ANYWAYS steve and eddie falling in love in the middle of finding ways to sneak robin to nancy without getting caught BUT THEN THE WAR HAPPENS and eddie's scared of being called up (or something??? historical inaccuracies who?? im not looking this up rn) and steve like very quietly strong arms a doctor to be like 'nope not this one' BUT THEN STEVE DOES GO TO WAR and eddie's a whole mess about it bcs maybe he should have gone with him??? but cue steve getting seriously hurt (yes i just got to cousin matthew getting blown up)

lord harrington is furious bcs his son is now cripple and unable to have a kid and nancy's dad is threatening to call the marriage off but nancy's fighting everyone while also sneaking eddie in with her to see steve CONSTANTLY and they're all a mess anyways idk about downton abbey but steddie would have a happy ending i demand

all this anyways because this convo

"Eddie," Steve says, thready and frail, like the explosion stole voice from him. "I'll never walk again."

"Alright," Eddie says. He blinks away his tears, presses his mouth to the back of Steve's hand, kisses his knuckles just to feel the warmth of Steve being alive. With a watery chuckle, he tries to crack a smile for him. "Well, I guess I won't tease you for being spoiled and lazy, seeing as you've got no choice in the matter now."

Steve's laughter is worth more than gold, than all the money Eddie has made working for Lord Harrington. "Ed, god," he murmurs around his smile, until it wobbles and falls. "No, I mean... I don't— You don't have to—"

"I'll drive you around," Eddie interrupts, before Steve can say something silly, silly like Eddie being free to pursue anyone other than Steve. "Wheelchair won't be anywhere near as hard as a car, you know." He presses another kiss to Steve's hand, his wrist, his fingers as Steve cries. "I was hired to take you everywhere, it's my job, you know?"

"I know," Steve sobs, clutching to Eddie. "I know."

hey I’ve been meaning to ask this… as a fellow Shocker enjoyer who couldn’t get through all off TSSM and therefore missed out on some Sinister Six dynamics — what is the appeal of electroshocker to you? Why do you ship them? Like, I mean this as a genuine and positive question!! Please rant about your guys I really want to be in on the excitement/fun :3c <33

/pos /nf

GRINS RLLY WIDE AT YOU. Thank you for this opportunity, wipes away a tear...

Also woops this got rlly fuckin long, lemme just toss a read more here

Ok so I always like to play with relationship dynamics and tbh. I think electro and shocker have some rlly interesting potential. I always like putting my fave characters in a metaphorical chamber and watch and experiment.

For electro and shocker obv they're my faves and from what we seen in the first s6 ep, they do actually temporarily work together, their powers work similarly and shocker takes the lead and electro follows. So first off it is about their powers/names, I've seen people mix the two up and such and it made me giggle, like hm yeah, despite their personalities being very different.

Also there is one scene where a couple of the s6 memebers are walking through thr sewers and shocker asks doc how they're gonna find spiderman but electro pipes up to respond, say8ng here's how and shooting off a bolt of lightning. (The fact he immediately gets scolded and sent off is so funny)

^iconic moment to me. Was he like. Trying to show off?? If he was its rlly funny because yeah I think he kinda was??? Like this cool experienced guy shows up (and also heh. Hehe. He kinda bad? WHO SAID THAT)

But yeah def think theres a sliver of an admiration thing, funny as shocker just sees him as an amateur but willing to help him later. Would have been interesting to see shocker help electro get better with his powers (like that one fanart i reblogged) AND SPEAKING OF SAID FANART

Clutches my head and falls to the ground. About that fanart I very much do think electro would get jittery/flustered from how close shocker is becuase well. Being made out of literal electricity means not a lot of people can be that close to you AND SRGH. You know that guy is starved for physical contact. And while I don't think it's actually like. ? Canon or whatever, or just a popular hc but I like to think shocker's suit is immune to Electro’s electricity or at least he doesn't get hurt by it (would make sense his suit was made to handle his gauntlets which obv are powered by electricity) and idk. That closeness in training slowly developing into subtle touches and just being physically close with each other ARGH . Makes me crazy.

Also now leaning more into hc stuff. DRINKING BUDDIES ELECTRO SHOCKER AGEGRH. Then getting closer through drinks at shocker's bar argh. Electro becoming more of a regular argh argh, shocker warming up to electro and even the rest of the sinister six argh argh. (Forever crazy over the idea of shocker warming up to the s6 arghh)

But also hrm. Hrmmm. Stares off into the distance. I also do think like they are gonna be in situationship hell or something undefined like they're def friends it's def smt more but it's just so??? Too many things in the way I would say. Shocker is loyal to tombstone, Electro is loyal to doc. Shocker will clearly prioritize his job, that's his way of living. Electro was just tossed in here and trying to deal with it. They both have pretty bad tempers, one just has way more of a handle on it. It's like ARGHH. This shit gets messy!!!!!!!

[bonkobarnes]

nobody asked but here’s what I think happened after the bar:

- Cam drove becca back to her parents house

- becca thinks about offering her in but knows cam will say no so they both just sit in a weird charged silence

- Cam went home by herself, full of shame and guilt and anger, then proceeded to get shit faced and probably got herself off

the delicate touch on his arm part two 🥹

[saph-yells-into-the-void]

this dialogue is interesting....

now that we're finished (most likely) with kunigami's time in NEL, its got me thinking about the purpose of his character and honestly..

it makes sense why his arc hasnt happened yet.

it feels like this is something theyre trying to build up, and i feel like kunigami's story with the wc will tie in with the meta of both blue lock and its ideology. after all, his existence in itself was now and then a direct contradiction to it. i can even see further depth on ego's character, his ideals, and his backstory being built from it.

ive seen people criticize kaneshiro for the writing of kunigami thus far and while i understand them to an extent, its not like kaneshiro abandoned kunigami completely. he's left hints and pieces for what his arc may entail to: lines that seem off, moments where the old kunigami shines through, panels that raise questions. all while kunigami disappears into the background, always overshadowed by the other characters whose egos are being put on full display. who have had their 'protagonist' moment. meanwhile, kunigami is being told to put his away. to 'abandon' his ego.

and yet, there are moments where it feels like kunigami is trying to fight that. when he tries to make a goal on his own, tries to steal the ball, after being gone for chapters on end. like the story is trying to sideline him, but kunigami keeps pushing his way to the front.

its not that his arc has been neglected; it just that it hasn't happened yet. or rather.. this neglect is part of his arc.

i have a feeling that when kunigami finally gets the focus, its going to be something incredible.
