• he's a big swiftie and you can't tell me otherwise. he won't tell anyone, but later in your relationship you'll end up finding out (whether that be that you were both mumbling lyrics to a song, or you found him listening to a taylor playlist).

• he definitely has one of those nicki minaj flags with her saluting hung up in his room. (probably the reason he never lets anyone in his room). :

   you've knocked on katsuki's door twice and still no answer. you know he's in there, so he must either be showering or listening to music. you open the door and peek your head in the doorframe. you get a good insight of a never-before seen area. as your eyes scan the room, they land on a specific flag hung up over on the wall across from his bed.

   your face lit up in excitement; unfortunately for you, katsuki looked up from his manga he was reading and quickly took out his earbud. his eyes went wide, "get out, dumbass!"

   you ignore him and keep on staring at the flag on his wall. his eyes trail over to where you were looking and his face blushed bright red. "it's not what it looks li-" he starts but you cut him off.

   "it's okay, katsuki. i accept your love for nicki minaj," you state with a devious grin plastered on your face.

   he looks back over to you, "oi, get that stupid grin off your face!" you start laughing, leaving your boyfriend looking like a gremlin.

   "aww, don't be like that katsuki. i won't tell anyone that you have a-!" you start but katsuki shushes you.

   "don't say that out loud! you're still in the hallway, dumbass!" he groans in frustration and embarrassment.

   you giggle, "okay, okay!"

• he actually really good at doing your hair. like when you need it curled or straighten, he's your guy. he can also style your hair in different ways, but not a huge variety because my mans isn't a machine. like he can do a braid, french braids (taught by you and mina) and other easy hairstyles.

• he will sing/hum you to sleep if you ask him to. he was hesitant at first, but the first time you asked him to you were kinda sad, and he couldn't resist. he would sing and hum your favorite slow songs, which made you easily fall asleep in his arms.

  "katsuki?" you ask softly to your boyfriend. he hums in response and you sigh, "can you sing me to sleep?"

  "uhm, i can't really sing.." he says back but you shake your head.

  "or hum, i don't mind. i just want you to sing me to sleep." you say and he sighs, wrapping his arms around your figure beside him.

  he started off humming the beginning of 'if i could fly', making you slightly smile. but as he got more into the song, he actually started to softly sing the lyrics to you. "i can feel your heart inside on mine," he sang softly, making your heart flutter. "i've been going out of my mind.."

  you feel yourself start to drift into the black void of sleep, but still being able to hear the soft melodies sang from your spikey-haired boyfriend. "for your eyes only, i'll show you my heart."

  now you're slipping in-and-out of sleep, but was slightly awake to hear the last part. "for your eyes only.." he ends off, kissing your forehead. "i love you, y/n. sweet dreams."

• i know this is a common headcanon, but he definitely makes you go to sleep with him; whether you're doing something, or you're not. like if you guys are in the common room hanging out, he'll just pick you up and take you with him when he's going to bed. not only does he want you to get enough sleep, but he also wanted a cuddle buddy because poor boy will never admit it, but he loves to touch you at all times.

• he definitely likes old nickelodeon cartoons. like the fairly odd parents, jimmy neutron, the older episodes of spongebob, etc. he used to watch them as a kid, and still loves watching them.

• he HATES those "educational" kids shows with a burning passion. like dora the explorer, his mom made him watch it as a kid, and it's probably a big reason for his anger issues today. he would always talk about how that melon-head girl is dumb and gets lost for no reason WHEN IT'S RIGHT BEHIND HER! so moral of the story, he will never let your kids EVER watch those shows when their little.

• and lastly, he definitely plays animal crossings. sometimes, you guys will go to each other's islands and tell each other about your villagers. and if there's one villager you guys hate, you'll always rant to each other about it. when new horizons came out, you made him get it with you so you could play with each other, which he though was dumb at first but eventually fell in love with the game. his favorite villagers are definitely the lazy ones, which you find adorable.

ThunderCats - “Berbils”

Written By: Leonard Starr

The ThunderCats meet some weird friends.

(I would, and should, have completed this during the weekend, but ThunderCats reviews were one of the last things on my mind the last few days. Of course, with all this extra time I have now, I had no excuse to not complete it yesterday. If this ends up published unfinished, which it is if this text is still here, please be patient.)

The episode begins with Mumm-Ra the Ever Living proving his tagline, by emerging from his tomb. Sure, he's not the muscular blue guy that Skeletor could look up to anymore, but he's still willing. He talks to himself, and the audience, about how he's going to make sure that Eye of Thundara is "accidentally destroyed." That will be a thing he's doing throughout the episode, as the Mutants of Plun-Darr don't even make an appearance here.

As Mumm-Ra looks on with his magical pool, we see that Panthro has made a Thunder Tank out of the scraps of the ship. Last week's Cool Toy was the Claw Shield, and this week's new Cool Toy is the Thunder Tank, something he had been teasing since the last episode. While Panthro is gloating about how he's the champion scrounger of the universe, the sky turns dark and stones start falling.

WilyKat: Stones, my whiskers! These are boulders!

They don't even have whiskers. At least, not drawn ones.

In the end, this just turns into an advertisement for the Thunder Tank, complete with some rock music for the rock digging. It can protect Panthro from the rock storm! It can dig through rocks! It can dig out scrapped spaceships! It's only $99.99 at Kay Bee Toys!

After the ThunderCats are saved by the Cool Toy of the Week, which only makes a small appearance at the end of the episode, Tygra theorizes this storm could not be natural. They don't seem to investigate who or what caused it, and it never comes up again. It's actually not that clear if it was Mumm-Ra caused it, with only a very slight implication in the intro, though it would be a good guess. I'd imagine being able to summon ston, er boulder storms at will would be a good ability to use constantly.

Meanwhile, Lion-O and Snarf are doing another look in the nearby forest, though Snarf is only following Lion-O and warning him that he's straying too far from the camp. Lion-O shrugs him off, telling him to stay back if he's scared. Not even 5 seconds from his appearance in this episode, Snarf is already being told to stay back. Lion-O tells him he'd jump at his own shadow, and Snarf then proves it by doing just that, proving that he probably should stay back. Ah, the comic relief.

The next scene will try to add a little more to Snarf's character besides, "Snarf Snarf you shouldn't be doing this", and "Snarf Snarf I'm hungry": he can run around beasts that looked like they were just standing there and can cut vines with his teeth. The latter comes in handy when Lion-O falls into a hole. A very, very slippery hole, he says, giving us a hint that this is more than just something caused by a natural or Mumm-Ra-caused disaster.

Snarf tries his best to get him out of the hole, but Lion-O simply can't do it. Emphasis on "try", though not because of him. The hole is also really slippery, and Lion-O can't figure out why he can't. Both Snarf and Lion-O get lassoed multiple times by some mysterious strangers made partially of metal.

In the same year the cartoons based on the Droids and Ewoks from Star Wars came out, ThunderCats came up with a combination of the two. While they can seemingly speak English, they speak in the same manner as the computer from WarGames. Unfortunately, as he's lassoed up, he can't summon the ThunderCats because he can't grasp his sword. The episode even cuts to the other ThunderCats talking about how Lion-O must be okay because he didn't do that. Panthro justifies their lack of caring because...

Panthro: No sense worrying, he's a man now.

Did you forget what Tygra said in the last episode? Well, he did manage to defeat that Mumm-Ra guy once, so he must be okay. Of course, he isn't, as he ends up getting tied to a stake. Lion-O tries to communicate with them by calling them "whatever they are", and they say "Berbil." Berbil? They look more like bears to me. Cute little Care Bears...

...no, wait, sorry! Put that knife away! I'm also sorry I accidentally called you Bergins before I edited that post! I don't know why I did, I really didn't like Trolls! Honest!

No, just kidding, Ro-Bear-Bill, as he eventually names himself, uses that knife to cut the rope. Apparently, trapping people and tying them to stakes is their way of saying "hi". They really just went from "one step away from roasting him over an open fire" to "future friend" in just one minute. Then again, I can imagine Third Earth can do that to people, with those rock storms and all.

We get a brief glimpse of their home village, which look surprisingly similar to another 80's cartoon's village. For a desolate planet, these guys seem to be living okay. There's just one problem.

We eventually had to get some evil dog-men in this series about Thunderous Felines, but they're not going to fight the ThunderCats. Instead, they're going after the Ro-Bear's supply of food. The Ro-Bears do have a line of defense: stun bullets fired via little tubes, as if they’re pelting them with spitballs. They’re just as effective as that analogy sounds, as even they admit that it does nothing. Lion-O is not impressed by this.

Lion-O, in an attempt to finally do something about this constant struggle. They just run away after this. That was a really short battle, but Ro-Bear Bill seems to have an opinion that may not be mine.

Ro-Bear-Bill: My my! That certainly was exciting, Lion-O!

Whatever you say, Ro-Bear-Bill.

Ro-Bear Bill decides to tell Lion-O that they know why they have to steal the Berbil berries: because they have to give them to the Giantors, who will give them their food in exchange for the berries. Now, the Giantors will be angry! This is partially why I hate these kinds of lateral thinking puzzles, they suddenly bring in details they never talk about.

Also, are these guys 100% human? Sure, they're bigger and are probably more Homo Erectus than Sapien. I guess if there's mutant monkeys, as proven by Monkian, mutant humans shouldn't be too far off.

Lion-O uses the Sword of Omen's Sight Beyond Sight, and, sure enough, he sees that those Giantors are angry. They want those berries, dammit!

Lion-O: I can probably handle them myself!

Snarf: Snarf, snarf! No, please, call the other ThunderCats! (clasping his hands, praying he won't try to take on a bunch of giants by himself)

Lion-O: Well, okay, just to please you.

Even when Snarf has a decent idea, he has to be told off. He decides not to try to do it himself this time. I would like to think that even if Lion-O took care of the bad guys last time, he realized he really lucked out with a villain that hates reflections.

So the ThunderCats fight the Giantors, and it's better than the last episode's fight scenes. One of the moves involves Panthero looking like he's going to kick one of the Giantors right in the face, but he stops about an inch away. One more inch, and we'd have to invent FV long before the TV rating system even existed!

It eventually ends when Lion-O does that Sword of Omens barrier thing again, and the Giantors don't even try to see if their giant clubs can go through it. Ro-Bear Bill decides not to give a review of the fight he just saw, but does congratulate the ThunderCats for saving their village.

While it seems that the conflict of the episode is over, Mumm-Ra has to do something in this episode after doing that big speech in the beginning. Realizing the Berbils will give the ThunderCats food supply, he decides to attack the Berbils by transforming again. This time, he shows off that he can transform into a swarm of bugs that can also merge into a giant bug, a pretty creative idea. Lion-O fights this bug by riding it like it was one of those mechanical bulls. Either he actually said "yee-haw", or I just imagined it.

Definitely not worthy of a "yee-haw", at least from Lion-O's point of view: the bug then flies off and dissipates back into the swarm, dropping Lion-O into a volcano. Worst of all, the Sword of Omens, which definitely must have something that can help him out here, is just ever so slightly out of his reach. If only Tutorial Jaga was here!

Thankfully, Tutorial Jaga shows up again, this time in the familiar blue aura he usually has, to tell him yet another feature of the sword: it can be commanded to go right to Lion-O. This also allows it to fly, leading to a scene where Lion-O is flying out of a volcano, looking like he's being dragged out of there.

But what about Mumm-Ra? Sure, he could just go back and cause some more trouble, but he decided to give up here for some reason. He knows he failed, but he does tell himself, and the audience, that he should do better next time, and time is nothing to him.

In the end, Mumm-Ra just gives up, the ThunderCats are victorious, and the Ro-Bear Berbils give them a banquet to celebrate their saving of the town. They even offer to build the ThunderCats' real estate, which they find the blueprints of. The ThunderCats initially initially refuse, but they insist on building it. After all, friends help friends right after catching them in traps and tying them to a stake.

How does it stack up?

There is a little more world-building here that doesn't entirely revolve around exposition this time. I think I'll give this one a higher rating than the last, even if this does give it the same rating as the first episode. I mean, this is the one with the robotic Care Bear...

Ah! Fine, I'll give it four cats, put the knife away!

Next, those Mutants come back.
