#for the saltiness coming back

[sallysellsseashellssundays]

The post about GitF has briefly revived my Moffat saltiness lol

Every single contribution he made during RTD’s era (aside from Blink) involved introducing a love interest for the Doctor or Rose, I mean come on!

I’m actually surprised he didn’t have Sally reveal she fell in love with the Doctor, but...GitF and the Library episodes are just so out of place 😭right smack in the middle of their respective seasons’ arcs suddenly here’s someone Ten is now apparently in love with and someone he’s going to marry sometime in the future😭 they really do feel more like Eleven episodes

and in s1 with Rose being so...idk how to word it maybe “ditzy” around Jack- like the lines about fainting or getting swept off her feet or how he’s talking to her about a bomb and she’s going “promises promises” 

it always rubbed me the wrong way, she didn’t act that way around Adam (if anything he’s the one that fainted lol), Mickey or the Doctor

there was something just so passive about how she was behaving there compared to how fierce she was in ‘The Unquiet Dead’ or “Rose” or “The Long Game”

ok if I don’t stop rambling now I’m going to write an essay haha

Fourth of July is so funny cuz it’s the one time every year that people decades past their hetalia phase will wake up in a cold sweat and go “there’s only one character I can draw for this day… 👁️👁️💦”

Prompt:

Calvin Rose finds a catatonic teenager roaming the streets and… well, the poor kid looks dead on his feet, and it’s raining cats and dogs, he can’t just leave him there.

And, it’s fine. He’s just passing through (can’t risk more with the Court still at large) and will be back on the road come morning. And he’ll sleep easier knowing he kept the kid from certain death.

So, really, how the hell did he end up with the very same kid riding shotgun and nagging him to turn up the radio to Phoebe Bridgers?

Okay so like. I found this and.

This really annoys me. And this is a perfect example of the narrative being biased against Kokichi and it's not necessarily the class who have a biased against him.

So it reads:

The night before, Shuichi and some of the others were forced to stay in the Ultimate Entomologist's lab by Gonta, who was tricked by Kokichi.

This is blatantly untrue, as proven by this post here. This piece of evidence is also not being written by Shuichi, as it refers to him in the third person, so this isn't Shuichi being biased.

This is the narrative just. Blatantly lying to the reader. This is the Narrative showing one thing (Gonta in full agreement to get everyone to watch their motives and Kokichi being 100% honest with him about the motive screening party) and just flat out lying in the next breath (Kokichi tricked Gonta)

Now. You could say that Kokichi "tricked" Gonta in saying that Kokichi lied to him about liking bugs, but. Everyone lied to Gonta about that.

So you either have the narrative just contradicting itself because it can't stand the idea of Kokichi being likable in any way (as that ruins the plot you see!) or just singling out Kokichi specifically for something that everyone does and only punishing him for it. Either way? It ain't a good fucking look.

The bias this narrative has towards Kokichi and how much it wants the reader to believe he's a horrible villain is so fucking jarring when they have proof that he isn't.

I do not like how V3 handled it's writing at all.

still thinking about choicale from time to time... the au that sometimes grabs hold of my head is one where cale dies while fighting the hunters and, instead of actually being dead, he regresses all the way to the first day he woke up as cale henituse. turns out the god of death has put this condition on him when he switched the souls, because he didn't expected krs!cale to be this... effective. he knew the guy could do this, but to not die at least once...? it made he even forget about it.

then, since he died, the others... don't react all that well. berserk mode on. choi han decides to make a deal with the god of death again, since he can use all his life span, which in turn would make the other dragons (still not so sure with it will be only raon and eruhaben or if mila, dodori and rasheel will do it too) make a deal with the god too. then everyone would go back to the past while offering the rest of their life span, probably tying it with cale's life span or something.

cale would be unaware of all of this until he meets choi han and is greeted with a hug instead of a suspicious stare. and if raon gets to them earlier than he should and with company, who is cale to complain?

why is everyone advocating for wade to die in the knuckles show? who else is going to convince shadow that humanity is worth saving so he helps sonic stop the ark

rewatching a Tina qsmp stream and I want you all to know that when q!Bagi reveals that she and q!BBH are best friends to q!Tina and q!Foolish, q!Foolish actually gets fucking jealous but in the weirdest way possible.

He’s like “oh he’s your best friend? has he ever pranked you??? I bet he hasn’t pranked you like he’s pranked me!”

and then when Bagi’s like “yeah he has” Foolish is like “oh. well. whatever. it’s good that he’s giving you all his attention actually. i don’t even care really.”

I might get crucified by the fandom for saying this, but as much as I think the theory that Undertaker will bring back Madame Red would be an insanely cool plot twist, and it'd allow us to finally get a bit more development on Ciel's connection to his family, as well as Grell's place in the story, I'm kind of hoping it doesn't happen... This might sound stupid, but Grell fans (including myself, to a certain extent) are kinda known for blowing her appearances in the story out of proportion, and I fear that her presence during such an important development would overshadow a lot of discussions about the Phantomhives

👀 Happy New Year!

happy new year!!!

this was while the Ahsoka show was airing and I was feeling salty about how little Kanan came up initially. it's the "my death is unreasonably downplayed/ignored in recent star wars media" support group. but then we did get the barest of crumbs eventually so I didn't feel it was worth following through

okay but i love post s8 lance where hes just this sad but still sweet man, like yeah he lost the love of his life and lives on earth because space took a toll on him and his self esteem and his self worth as a person and is now done with it even though it was his dream to explore space and is now growing flowers that his ex-girlfriend loved and is living in grief but hes still there. Kind of.

He’s just this sweet but pitiful old man and he’s closed off from love for a while even though he loves Keith like breathing. He just doesn’t want to get hurt.

SO HE TAKES A ROAD TRIP BY HIMSELF WITHOUT TELLING ANYONE TO FIGURE SHIT OUT FOR HIMSELF!!

LIKE LITERAL GHOSTING!! HE HASNT BEEN SPOTTED FOR A FEW MONTHS!! PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED!! WHERE THE FUCK IS HE!!

BOTH PARTIES ARE THE SAME!!!, SCOTUS edition:

Clarence Thomas: appointed by George H.W. Bush (Republican)

Samuel Alito and John Roberts: appointed by George W. Bush (Republican)

Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett: appointed by Donald Trump (Republican)

Conservative total: 6

Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan: appointed by Barack Obama (Democrat)

Ketanji Brown Jackson: appointed by Joe Biden (Democrat) replacing Stephen Breyer, appointed by Bill Clinton (Democrat), who also appointed Ruth Bader Ginsburg;

Liberal total: 3

Most common split on all these bad decisions: 6-3

Gee, it's almost like SCOTUS actually is incredibly important, Hillary Clinton and the entire mainstream Democratic electorate knew that in 2016, Democratic presidents consistently appoint the justices who are on the side of the rulings that you agree with, it was maybe a bad idea to let a man charged with 71 felony counts including criminal espionage appoint one-third of the current court, and yet BUH BUH BERNIE AND HER EMAILS.

Jumping feet first into Moon Knight comics and I still have a lot of ground to cover but the difference between this in the 2014 run

Of Marc calling on Khonshu for a favor and him immediately complying vs the 2021 run

Calling out multiple times, with the same verbiage, but Khonshu only responding when he gets what he wants out of Marc (recognizing Khonshu as father) is just ugh

Back again with another Calvin in Owl Song thought 🦉🦉🦉:

So Calvin is working for the Court still, and somehow they end up assigning him to work for the Joker for a night. All hes doing is being extra security, and making sure the Bat doesn't find the Clown too soon, easy enough.

Until Sheila sells Robin out. Until the Clown starts beating him.

Until Robin starts calling out for his dad, asking his mom why she would do that. And Robin is a kid, he's a scrawny little kid, scared and confused and wanting his parent's protection, and Calvin can't do this.

He kills everyone in that warehouse, he can't leave any witnesses, then he grabs Robin and flees; he can't return to the Court after this, nor will Robin return to the Bat, who didnt save him.

Bruce still gets to the warehouse, but just as he gets there, it goes up in flames. When he frantically searches the rubble, there's blood and gore but burned beyond recognition; he has no way of identifying if it's Jason's or not. He has no way of knowing his son wasn't in that warehouse, no way of knowing Jason's still alive.

He plans a funeral and buries an empty casket. Dick loses his mind at the loss of his beloved owlet.

Meanwhile Jason is on the run with Calvin, who refuses to let the little bird out of his sight. The kid clearly doesn't have good parents, so it's up to Calvin to protect him.

And Jason already knows how to deal with Talons, how to communicate with owl noises and body language. He also knows that this Talon cares for him, feels protective of him, but won't let him leave, and he knows he can't run from a Talon; Dick would always find him whenever he tried to hide, for whatever reason. So all Jason could do was try and convince Calvin to take him back to Gotham.

Except as soon as he manages that, assuming Nightwing is patrolling, Dick notices a Talon's presence in the city. Of course he does.

He thinks nothing of it when he catches glimpses of Jason; hallucinations are becoming increasingly normal for him. But what chills him to the bone is that whenever he sees his owlet, the Talon he's noticed is never far behind; always watching, always there.

Calvin means it as protection, Dick sees it as a threat.

Eventually everything comes to a head after tension builds; maybe Dick somehow realized Jason was alive and thinks he's being stalked by the Court as a prospective Talon, so he lashes out at Calvin who fights back and eventually Jason has to get between them and explain everything.

Except Calvin has gotten attached at this point so he ends up getting dragged to Wayne Manor where he's accepted with open arms; Dick likes that he protected Jason and killed both Joker and Sheila, and everyone already knows how to deal with Talons so he's in good hands.

(wow this came out longer than I expected lmao)

Omg poor Dick would feel like he’s perpetually haunted by glimpses of the past because— that Talon could very well be himself. Or he’s reminded of alternate universes and is heartbreakingly relieved that at least one version of him didn’t let his precious owlet die….

Meanwhile Calvin has hardcore imprinted on Jason, and Jason… well, he’s got experience wrangling Talons. This one obviously needs his help. Also, he may be a teeny-tiny bit pissed at Dick and Bruce. So, no going back home until he’s blown off some steam. Socialized Calvin. All that.

And with Jason and Calvin both busy navigating life (and some awful injuries), they both miss the nuclear fallout of Robin’s death….
