#give that gay girl intresting stuff

There are a couple tropes I really love in the space of Miraculous Ladybug fan works, but quite possibly my favorite is when the miraculous holders just get creature from using their powers.
Like yeah, I would say that hosting the power of an abstract concept given sentience, that got shoved into the shape of an animal and bound to a piece of jewelry, would kinda mess with your body a bit.
The little bit of this we get in canon is basically that Adrien loves being a cat and the whole Tikki munches incident.
But I love it when people give them ears and wings and tails, give them eyes that aren't quite human anymore. Fuck with their gender and their sense of body. Sometimes it's body horror, sometimes it's just aesthetic. Love it either way.
I just think it's so fun, a lot of the time it's combined with the like "when a holder and the kawami really respect and bond with each other there's nothing that can be done except having magic bleed into the holder" I think that's fun, but also just making the animal of the kwami a bigger deal is fun. Like if you're going to make it a ladybug you might as well give her wings and antenna and mirrored eyes.
#yes I do like ml#there's just so many characters I like to mess with in my head#also sue me I'm trans and have a certain respect for body horror. for the forced change of your physical self especially when you chose it#anyway I alwasys ramble in the tags#I set up this side blog to hide random writing thoughts I had and oh boy do I have a lot and none of them are on here#and recenetly (and by recently I mean like the past year) I've been hit with so many ml thoughts)#they're all gay#and some of them are cohesive#actually a lot of them revolve around chloe and au's where she gets a meaningful improvement arc#give that gay girl intresting stuff#miraculous ladybug#ml#although one of my ideas is also my very fun very gender take of ml where to conceal their identities ladybug and chat start pretending#to be different people under the masks like they don't need to like explicitly say. they just#switch costumes a lot and they like slyly hint at maybe theres dozens of people who pass around the miraculous to make sure that their#Identities are always safe#and to support the act they also start changing the genders they present as as holders. everyone is like “it's clearly multiple people”#and during this process marinette and Adrien are both like slowly having personal gender revelations#and gabe is like tearing his hair out over having to fight this secret group of superheros that he can never find or catch#but he's still just getting his ass kicked by two kids who're doing the world's most successful costumes change bits#it's like those “fake dating” tropes where they're like “oh but we really do love each other” but with gender#“oh I've got a great idea lets pretend to be different genders sometimes”#cut to “hmh ok so I think I'm not pretending anymore”#oh I do always ramble in the tags

breaks knuckles we're doing akinene ( •̀ ^ •́ )✧
Context for later stuff: In my mind, WxS have a game where they yell out random parts at each other and do their best to play it for the next five minutes. Mizuki is fully in on this and even participates. (Mizuki theater kid canon TO ME)
Akito didn't realise he was into Nene before she got all confident, and now he's just down bad. Unforch for her, Nene has a thing for Loser Boyfails, now that she is no longer a Loser Girlfail. (To the same extent, at least...) She takes one look at this guy, sighs very heavily, and starts taking notes on how to become his friend. (In a very neurotypical fashion.)
They're bi4bi but lean in opposite directions and are so used to being percived as gay that all of their friends are Very Confused when the resident lesbian and chronically gay guy start making out holding hands - and I say holding hands because they are both embarrased to hell and back. This does not mean they're going to lay off the PDA though. Making your partner embarrassed is the highest form of love.
Before they got together, Nene attempted to act (Y'know. given she's an actress.) like Akito's friends to try and win him over, which means being bubbly and listening to the entirety of both RADder and GLaP days' catalouge trying to figure out how to start a conversation. Eventually she gives up and tries talking about her intrests, specifically a game she knows Toya also likes (Slime Rancher). This is exactly what she needed to do from the beginign because, as stated, Akito is down bad and will just sit there staring in awe while she infodumps.
Nene shows up to a VBS performance in full theatre kid attire and Akito proceeds to buy her an entirely new wardrobe.
Akito is forced to go to WxS performances. Nene begs him not to but Kohane and Toya had already bought tickets and An cant make it so he kinda has to. Half the performances are Nene doing the stupidest shit imaginable (She fills in for Tsukasa on the human canon one time and now Rui thinks it's acceptable to do literally anything to her-) or she's playing the villan and holy shit is he gay straight bi.
Nene unironically says "unforch" and it's begun rubbing off on Akito. Which means Kohane and Toya and Kotaro too. An is sobbing in a corner.
Ena is the last person to find out about this. She thinks Akito just has some random girl on his arm or whatever but she goes to the Shinonome Household one time and Ena's impression shoots up instantly when she finds out Nene is not just a girl, but a Gamer Girl (who listens to n25).
Mizuki jokingly threatens to kick them out of Kamikou's Pride Club for being too straight. An actually threatens to kick them out but bc of the aformentioned WxS game - Rui keeps giving her slutty parts intentionally and boy howdy does Akito fall for it.
Rui: Nene! Kinky assassin! Nene: What gender? Rui: A guy. Nene: On it. (To Akito) Wow I've, um. Dropped my assassin killing gun. Into your dick. D'ya mind if I fish it out? Akito: (Spluttering) An: (Groaning) Toya: (Chuckling) Everyone Else: (Roaring Laughter) Mizuki: Okay, now do it for real. That means not on your boyfriend. Nene: Sure. (Walking over to Rui and holding a Finger Gun below his neck) Wow... Sure would be a shame if I had to feel up your insides, removing any trace of life, raw and bleeding, so all that was left was a variety of products to be sold... (Shrugs) Too bad you wont be awake to feel it. (Shoots Finger Gun) Akito: (Has not said anything and we're not sure he can.) An: (Bemused Laughter) Everyone Else: (A Light Smattering of Applause) Nene: (Mimicking Tsukasa) Now back to talking about that policy that wants to make our existence illegal. Tsukasa: How dare you mock me, a future world star??!! Nene: Yeah, you can't be a star if you get hatecrimed, dude.
They stay up all night playing Splatoon! <3 I love me some gamer gays. They did almost break up over Mario Kart, though...
formatting this on my phone was a mistake... but yah i think thats it for now!! i'll probably think of something else in ten minutes though... from 🎲 anon!! (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

some pre-game batim headcanons :>
Henry: - all he does is eat hot chip be bisexual and lie /j - has a preference for women so i think him realizing hes not straight is like hey wait a minute hey wait wait - joey was his gay awakening,,, real -gets burnout super easy, it probably frustrates him a lot when he cant draw - drawing is a big comfort for him - has pretty bad social anxiety, but has become pretty good at dealing with it!
Joey: - gay. this man is not into women at all sorry 💀 "i just dont have time for girls" yeah sure fruitcake - watch me project once again and give this man bpd. like im sorry his whole thing with henry?? im not even explaining it but if you get it you get it yea - also definitely has adhd - wheelchair user !! he is able to walk, but he still needs the wheelchair when flare ups get real bad. he is stubborn though and refuses to use it at work or when hes out of the house
more under the cut !!
Wally: - he has adhd, obviously - transgender !! i feel like hes a gnc binary trans man - hes straight to me, but his gf/wife is also trans >:D t4t win - i feel like he likes to gossip. the thought of him, norman, shawn, maybe even jack whispering to eachother in a corner about some random secrets theyve overheard is super funny to me
Sammy: - AUTISM... hes autistic - gets overwhelmed and overstimulated super easily, hence why hes always so irritable - yknow what im giving him bipolar. hes my comfort character and i get to project my mental illness !! - hes gay and demiromantic - honestly? transfem i see it. bc like im thinking about how he talks about susies singing like. i know what you are - bad with boundaries.. he is so bad at them and reading social cues - hates being touched, probably is only comfortable with jack for the most part - watch him crush on like half the men mentioned in this post at least once
Norman: - hes also autistic. his sense of humor is so??? 😭 - HES ALSO DEFINITELY AN OLDER GAY GUY. he just has that energy yknow like if you agree - probably would be agender too - him and sammy are that incompatible type of autism havers does this make sense?? like some autistic people i just cant stand because of my autism, our places on the spectrum make it so hard to like them yk? thats norman and sammy - this man definitely has insomnia
Susie: - lesbian. she doesnt know it yet but she is - her calling sammy handsome isnt her being attracted to him its just gender envy 😁 - shes just a feminine transmasc 👍 - rejection sensitive dysphoria out the ASS my poor girl - very insecure deep down, so she overcompensates for it by trying to be a people pleaser n stuff
Allison: - shes bisexual !! has a strong preference for women - shes a trans woman idc idc i love her - AUTISTIC AS HELL - i imagine she had a sibling like relationship with joey - probably one of the few people that could tell him off without like. getting fired lol
Buddy: - adhd and autism,, special intrest in art/drawing - AROACE. the stuff he says about his friendship with dot?? "i didnt know we could just be friends" and him not being too into his first assumption when she pulls him away to show him the bendyland model?? yea - honestly i think he has social anxiety hes doing his best - hes very sensitive over people bringing up him being jewish, he seems so ready to be made fun of or scorned for it :( - definitely some cultural detachment because of it (im projecting again) - i think dot would wanna learn about about it, buddy should teach her stuff!! like traditions and whatnot
Tom: - asexual 👍 - TRANSGENDER. probably would be nonbinary, heavily masc leaning though - he smokes a lot have you heard this man good lord. i dont think allison is a fan of it - anger issues,, mostly caused by stress and a lack of sleep, hes trying his best :( - he has arthritis. hes not old but god do his joints fee like it. he has crutches !! like joey though he only really uses em at home 💀
Jack: - wheelchair user jack my BELOVED idk where the hc came from but im all for it - he cant walk, but is able to get around just fine! watch him try and do wheelies to impress sammy only to almost fall over - 100% autistic as well. him and sammy are able to be autism together - unlabeled aromantic - hes such a loser /loving
Grant: - poor guy gets chronic headaches someone give him some painkillers - hes got generalized anxiety disorder this man cannot get a break - demisexual and demiromantic,, mans is double demi
Shawn: - adhdtism 😭 - LOVES to talk, he could go on for hours dude - i feel like he knows a lot of ridiculously obscure knowledge. for why? dont worry about it - he gives me genderfluid vibes - literally just some guy

Ok so I'm just need to get this off my chest about alot of fandom discourse and anti stuff (this is a bit messy sorry for that)
People who ship gay ships can and will be homophobic
And maybe this will be seen as a really weird take I don't mean in it in like "oh they have really bad takes about LGBTQA issues and don't understand that what they are doing is harmful" I mean it in "I think all queer people are going to hell and that homosexuality is a sin and that they are not allowed to marry or exist and should be killed but my two blorbos can make out and have gay sex because it's just a fantasy I will pray at the end of the night for forgiveness from God so it's ok uwu"
some do mental gymnastics to justify it
1- "well i see the feminine man as a woman so I'm not sinning"
2- "well my blorbos actually love eachother not like actual gay people they are just in it for the sex"
3 "it's a sin but I'll repent later"
My rule of thumb most religious people will jump hoops to justify things that they like but aren't allowed in there religious and at the same time will shame other religious people for doing the same thing because the other sin is easier for them to avoid
Some Christians will eat selfish but will shame other Christians for wearing certin clothes
Some muslims will drink alchohol but will shame other Muslims for eating pork
It's a basic fact
sins I like and have a hard time avoiding = Well I'm human
Sins I don't like and don't have a hard time resisting = bad and you are going to hell
How do I know that ? Well you see I unfortunately was homophobic I knew alot of homophobic people who shipped alot of queer ships some of them treat it like they have a porn addiction there are servers for *recovery* at least in my country's fandom
Hell me and my sister had to do mental gymnastics to justify to eachother why we shipped bakudeku and dazai and chuyya I still laugh to this day (it isn't funny giving the context that when we both discovered we ship gay ships me and my sister almost had a panic attacks thinking the other will snitch about the other and get beaten up for supporting homosexuality)
Thankfully me and my sister are better now and not homophobic anymore still have things to fix but we are doing better (fandom helped alot with that discovering that LGBTQA people are actually human who love their partners "I am sorry for the wording I really am" and not just pedophiles that are possessed by demons like we've always been told in the news and tv and every other form of media
I'm really bad at getting to the point but Anti policing certain things and calling people homophobic for doing things they don't like in fandom spaces is bad really bad an ally who ships a straight ship over a canonical gay ship are better than a homophobic person who ships the correct ships and uses the right labels and headcanons safe stuff and in real life won't hesitate to shoot a gay person
Some people (antis) need to understand that shipping isn't activism (do they think that all the people who wrote gay fanfiction in the old fandoms where actually you know ok with gay people? All of them ?) People can ship all the right stuff and be homophobic
Homophobia is hating gay people it isn't about what ship you like it isn't about what kind of media you consume and I'm tired of people pretending it is
People ship mainly because they like the pair simple as that (people shipped more gay ships because they simply weren't interested with shipping them with soulless female characters for sex appeal or female characters that simply didn't have chemistry with the protagonist and never showed intrest untill the last two chapters because boy gets girl , but the protagonists best friend on the other hand ? Their enemy ? Their mentor ? Characters that are well built and interesting and have a good dynamic) that's why I think shipping isn't activism your personal preferences aren't some form of activism sorry not sorry
People didn't make straight characters gay because they were progressive and wanted represention (I'm sure some did) but most of them liked the dynamic between these two characters that's it
And I fucking hate the why can't they be friends because they are in canon you are just whining because you want more content of them as friends and the sad truth is you have to make it yourself tragic I know
And I hate how they bully certain tags like gender bend and calling everyone homophobic in them because you know what homophobic people who use the tag do ? They move to the trans tag and pretend it's trans stuff while it is just gender bend simple as that , the people who aren't homophobic will label it correctly (I don't know how to explain it to people and I really don't want to come off as transphobic I'm still educating myself on the topic and I admit I still have unresolved homophobia so maybe I'm just wrong with this certain point and feel free to correct me if I am but gender bend and trans are two different things and it feels obvious when gender bend is tagged as trans I don't know how to explain it exactly I can't really maybe I have a biase on this topic but the greatest example I may have if the bts fandom most trans fics aren't trans they are a genderbend and I mean read and write what they want but criticism is important too"
And I also have a good laugh at the Antis who are like "you are equating pedophilia to gay people your like conservatives" when talking about censorship because no your average conservatives Christian doesn't equate it to pedophilia they think it is worse (pedophilia is not a sin just saying) they just need to be married to do it
I live in a conservative country ok ? When I was 12 I read a story about a 8 year old getting married to an 30 year old guy because her family abounded her and him being a man of god married her (it was a muslim story so adoption was a no no) and he started falling in love with her when she reached 16 and they got involved I would be ok with the story if the authors wasn't actually agreeing with all the worldviews their book had like litterly thought it was a good thing , but two teenage boys kissing in a book is seen as a moral threat to the country
So whay I'm saying here is no pedophilc writing will still exist if censorship people got they want they just need to do it in a god honoring way so all antis want if censorship of queer people there is no beating around the bush
And that gay people shouldn't have sex in literature Anti takes is something they share with homophobic people who ship queer ships do because
gay people wanting sex = predatory and bad
Straight people wanting sex = gods calling to multiply on earth or something

Hello! May I request hc for the dorm leaders finding out that their female crush is only attracted to girls(female mc as a lesbian I stan-)? If you don't feel comfortable writing this then feel free to delete! I hope this was intresting ;-;
hell yeah lesbians rise up!!!! i included some of my own headcanons of how gay and lesbian stuff is in twst because i think it’s nice to have that there!
riddle rosehearts
riddle is immediately mortified- not because it turns out his crush is a lesbian, but because he’s now horrified all his “courting” may have come off as a bother or inappropriate. he’ll go beet red and apologize for that. he- he didn’t know! he didn’t mean to impose himself- argh!
is he heartbroken? a little. but he’s more worried that he may have come off as pushy. the queen of hearts may have been overbearing, but she never went out of her way to specifically bother anyone, and riddle feels the same way. he really really wants to make it clear he didn’t mean to bother her oh god-
once he calms down a bit, he’ll just, kinda... compose himself and apologize once more. if he had known, he’d probably not have made any advances (even though his “flirting” was more along the lines of inviting to unbirthday parties and sharing trey’s baking. it was nothing too invasive- hell, riddle’s crush wasn’t even aware he was flirting with her)
riddle will also bashfully ask if... well, even if he has no chance with her, he hopes that they can still remain friends. romantic or platonic feelings, he still really gets along with her- hell, everyone’s grown used to having her at the unbirthday parties, and trey already bakes extra for her every time.
he’ll take the title of being her friend with pride. riddle will quickly swallow down his heartbreak: this is something that has to be this way, and the fact that she likes girls simply means he’ll just be the best guy friend she possibly can have
leona kingscholar
leona “woman respecter” kingscholar takes the information well. he just kinda goes ‘oh’, nods, and takes a nap.
welp, there’s nothing to be done, so why get all sad and mopey? if the little herbivore likes girls, more power to her. welp, women are pretty and powerful. he understands why they like women. makes sense
leona is a bit sad, sure, but it’s only natural. he doesn’t dwell on it for long, though. if something can’t be changed, there’s no sense in thinking it over and over: he’s a man and his crush likes women, so that’s the end of that
despite it being so clear cut for him, he will take some time to talk everything out with her. he wants to make it clear: he was pursuing her romantically before, and he won’t anymore. he didn’t know she was a lesbian before, and now he knows
still, leona’s got a soft spot for the little herbivore. even though he might not be pursuing her anymore, it doesn’t change the fact he still feels like he’s gotta watch over her and help her.
he’s just gonna be his usual grumpy self, really. he’ll still invite her over to practice magift, he’ll still tease them and call them “herbivore”. is he still in love? leona won’t ever mention it, really. does it matter? she’s his friend now, even if he calls her “annoying herbivore” whenever she wakes him up, and that’s pretty much all he could ask for
azul ashengrotto
fun fact did you know octopi have been seen displaying homosexual behaviours out in nature
which is to say, this isn’t anything new to azul. same-sex relationships are more common in his home than what he’s seen in the surface, but it’s not like lesbians are a new concept to him
oh don’t get it wrong he does cry when his darling tells him she’s not into men. he cries and then he lets her hug him until he stops. he then proceeds to be so mortified over it all he wishes he could go hide in his octopus pot
after apologizing for... that ordeal, azul will return to his usual composed self. it’s almost hard to tell he was a sniffling mess just a few minutes before if it weren’t for his puffy eyes
he composes himself quickly because, well... when he pictured himself getting turned down, it was always painful- old insecurities flaring, being told he wasn’t enough- but this was... not painful? it’s not as if he wasn’t good enough or something. his crush was just a lesbian! it’s not his fault, so it’s hard for him to feel sad over it
azul might even feel a bit bad for her. she’s... stuck in this all boy’s school, huh? the only girls here are probably the fae that control the weather... and the talking portraits...?
even though there’s really no girls for her to talk to, azul will still take on a protective attitude over her, giving the “if any girl breaks your heart tell me and the twins and we will avenge you” talk. azul doesn’t know why any girl would hurt her heart, because in his eyes she’s precious, but hey, he’s gotta protect his friend, right?
kalim al-asim
“wait you like women? oh me too!”
kalim takes it... so well. like, almost shockingly well? it’s like he processed the information in record speed, sorted out his own feelings immediately, and made peace with it all in a matter of seconds
kalim has many sisters around his age. one in ten people are gay. what i am getting at is kalim has lesbian sisters and so this revelation that his crush is lesbian doesn’t shake his world too much
he’ll admit it stings a little- love is a powerful thing, after all! but he thinks people who pursue others who are clearly not interested are scummy, and he’d never do anything like that
in his mind, it’s an easy ordeal. he trusts and likes her. she sees him as a close friend, and that’s the most he can be. so really, he should just be happy he’s as close to her as can be! he’s already at the top rung of being close to her, so he’s hit the goal, right?
kalim, god bless his heart, is that friend who will present his lesbian friends to any other lesbian friend he has. he has good intentions, but it might get a little tiring? and a bit overwhelming too when he brings up that he has sisters right around his age who are also into girls and suddenly he’s making plans for a big mixer party and oh god jamil please help and put a stop to this before it gets out of control please help he’s already planning a menu-
vil schoenheit
ooooh so she’s a lesbian ooooooh ok that makes sense. that makes sense.
vil is like “oh! of course my incredible efforts into my appearance and into our friendship and in wooing her weren’t working. she is just not into men”
he’s almost surprised at how getting turned down like this just... didn’t bruise his ego at all. his efforts weren’t useless, he wasn’t doing things wrong, it simply couldn’t work! honestly, vil would have been more hurt if he’d put all this effort and his crush had been straight and still turned him down
hmm, so she’s into girls... then being here, in an academy full of men (who are, in vil’s opinion, horribly unrefined and ungraceful) must be rough.
just because he’s no longer trying to pursue a relationship with her does not mean that he’ll stop inviting her over for skincare or for trying on clothes. absolutely not. the fact vil even was attracted to her in the first place is because he saw her as someone with potential and that has not changed
he will immediately position himself as a big brother / best friend. just because he’s her friend doesn’t mean he’s gonna let her slack, though! he’s still gonna be checking she follows the skincare routine he set up for her, and that she’s eating and sleeping well- as much as he says it’s because he “wants to make her potential shine” or whatever, it’s just... overwhelmingly clear he just cares about her as a friend
idia shroud
out of all the ways he imagined getting turned down this has to be the one that he had NOT pictured and at the same time, it’s kinda the best one? crush was a lesbian so it wouldn’t work out, 10/10 turn down, didn’t make him go into a self deprecating vortex
once again, it’s the age old relief of “yes, i got turned down by my crush, but it wasn’t my fault, because it turned out she was a lesbian”. idia had ran so many scenarios of being turned down, of his crush being disgusted at him, that it all being resolved into her not liking men at all is... almost relieving?
and you know what. he gets it. when he sees his figurines and posters of his favourite idols and anime girls it’s like well duh of course she likes girls because girls are cute?
he’s gonna have her rate his waifu tierlist. what? it’s not- it’s not weird, is it?! he’s just trying to bond, and- urgh, he kinda wants to know what her opinion on his waifus is. because his waifus are cute girls and she likes girls so ?? it makes sense? right? (idia might cry if she says his waifus aren’t That Good)
this whole ordeal might also result in the almost hilarious scenario in which ortho just straight up goes “Hey niichan, what is a lesbian?”
learning that his closest friend likes girls opens pandora’s box, the box being idia making his friend review every anime girl and gacha or visual novel girl that HE likes
malleus draconia
did you know reptiles are also quite gay? there’s even a species of lizard that’s just, entirely female. dragons are reptiles.
malleus, bless his heart, is not good at reading people. his crush will need to be Direct. trying to use metaphors like “I swing the other way”, or “I play for the other team” do nothing but further confuse him- when his crush finally cracks down and just goes “what I’m trying to say is I’m a lesbian” he finally, finally, understands what this is all about
malleus just... nods in understanding
he feels a little sad- it does sting, a bit, to know things can’t work out, but he’s also... happy. if she told him, that means she trusts him, right?
malleus is happy enough to just have A Friend in general, even if he’d never admit he’s usually lonely. most people tend to run from him or be so intimidated they shiver when they hear his name. and yet, against all odds, he’s found a friend who likes being by his side, someone who didn’t know all the baggage that comes with his name. he’d be a fool to tear down that friendship just because he’s learnt it’ll stay platonic
also, as mentioned before, it’s not like homosexuality is some sort of taboo or odd subject. it’s actually quite common amongst the fae, especially those in Malleus’ kingdom. although he does say he can’t introduce her to any cute fae girls. he.... is not friends with any. (he just doesn’t have a lot of friends in general, but he refuses to say that because he... doesn’t want to sound “mopey”, lile lilia says he is)

What if we taught people about sexuality, romantic intrest, lack thereof, and gender.
Like each category gets its own lesson.
So asexual, demisexuality, gray-sexuality, etc would be it's own lesson
Same for the gender of people your attracted to
Then type of romantic intrest, and gender.
Because then when you tell people I'm________ they get it? It's hard to be like
"Well, I like girls, and guys and anyone honestly. But, I don't feel romantic or sexual intrest as I am aro/ace. But I'm cupidoromantic because I like the idea of a relationship but I don't get the feelings. I identify as she/her but not like the same way a cishet woman does. Because I think gender roles are stupid? And like I don't always feel femine but I am still a woman? So to answer your question no I'm not gay."
I hate how I have to give a whole lecture because people don't know lgbtqai+ terms. And I have to explain how no I'm not a lesbian, I'm not gay, or bi. And no I'm not Nb or Trans. Im just not super feminine. And trying to tell people I don't get romantic feelings is practically a lost cause. We need to teach this stuff at school. If I had learned this at school it would have helped my personal journey so much.
Am I the only one?
(Edit: sorry for the rant 😅)

X for the fandom ask 💕💕
X reduced 10 years from my lifespan. I just, love it so much ❤
Blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): Subaru is all time fave. I adore how complex he is and how much he changed during TB and X. I have to stop here otherwise I'll never shut up about him. Also the more he suffers the more beautiful he gets. That's apparently Clamp's axiom, because look at Fai and Kamui. Yue is the only one who got away with it angst free. Also got angel wings as a bonus, and a caring bf. Kamui also got wings but bat ones. About bf.... yea. Nowdays I sometimes think about Kamui and Fuuma, mostly because I'm trying to figure out what sort of tragedy was going on there. The more I think about theories the more catastrophical it gets. No way X ending would be Disney one, probably so brutal we collectively would never recover.
Scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): there is no sin free character in X. Closest we can get is Yuzuriha, god forbid something actually happened to her. And Inuki ofc, i always wanted a real dog like husky but got stuck up with cat-alike toy poodle. I adore Arashi too. Kotori as well, how is her hair curly naturally like that? Rly cute girl such terrible fate but then again if she survived and saw what her brother turned antichrist did to her middle school crush she'd be climbing back up that cross herself. Karen is so shaped character tho, beautiful fire women with pure heart, god bless 👀🙏🔥 women in this series of disaster gays are a blessing
Scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): okay X is not only sort of underground stuff but also 30 years old so I'd say all characters except Seishirou, Subaru and Kamui are underrated to some degree. Especially Sorata, Arashi and Fuuma since they're main cast too. Those two are actually my fav mlw clamp couple. I hope they'd get 'happy' ending but they already have the 'original sin' of X (losing sight of yourself due to love for other, sacrificing yourself somehow thus hurting loved one in process), so I doubt that would happen. Fuuma tho, he's such an intresting and complex 'antagonist' to explore and hot but I rarely see people talking about him. Also from the rest I rly like Karen, Yuzuriha and Nataku in that last chapter with Karen (that "I was never treated as human being" conection between them got to me okay? ;-;). Also I once included Yuuto as bypass character in fic so he kinda grew up on me since then, even if there's not much to his character.
Glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): literally Seishirou but not solely because I adore him, but because he'd either do some weird stuff like chilling on top of churches while stalking people or cringe like disappearing as sakura petals to impress (Subaru was, Kamui wasn't in slightest. You know who is more objective there) or meme worthy like being kinkshamed by Fuuma. " There's nothing between me and Subaru-kun, we just made a foolish bet long time ago" - yea sure, wait till Fuuma plucks his eye out, what about then?
Poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): Seishirou invented problematic faves and Fuuma joined in step. Kamui from beginning of series is poor little meow meow, he hisses at like.... everyone and then destroys a building, all in manga's first chap while there are bishonen sparkles in the background. If it weren't for Arashi he would have killed a guy back then. He was even like "where are you taking my prey?" at her. What are you, a vampire? Nevermind, wrong series. Then he softened but at cost of Clamp torturing him. Also the potential Sakurazukamori!Subaru has as fave that does atrocities because he's forced to but at same time totally isn't - it's unparalleled.
Horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): I dont even have to choose a character, Clamp already tortures all of then for fun. Nobody is spared, they even made Keiichi suffer by killing his family and his one-sided crush on Kamui. Sorry Keiichi try rougher approach next time. So I'd say Subaru since he hasn't had a hour of happiness in a decade or Kamui cuz... well whole X, but there's a special brand of "hehehe so much for indifferent now huh?" in making Seishirou "I have no emotions, breaking a glass cup, your arm, what's the difference?" Sakurazuka catch feelings after so long and going from 😎 to 💀 ( and then ☠ quiet literally, what an icon)
Eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): I'm sending Seishirou to superhell for everything he did but also for going around in public like this:
If I ran into this on street, I wouldn't cross to the other side of street, I'd move to other side of country.
Also let's send Kakyou and Hinoto to superhell for being cryptic, poetic and never straightforward enough to say things like "yooo Kamui if you do that and that, this and that would happen. Boy look in the attic for your common sense it's gotta be somewhere". Kamui would pack his trauma and bolt out of Tokyo first morning train and we wouldn't be here on 19 years hiatus. And 30 years worth of trauma.
#thanks for ask 💕#i love them all#x/1999#also i gotta tag 😎#seishirou sakurazuka#cuz half of this is him

About anime already said, what about the top 5 manga?
For this ask meme
To be fair that was only top 5 recent anime, I reckon by top 5 of all time would look v different but hmm manga, manga is more difficult cuz I only jsut started reading a bunch n I tend to ;;;; forget those I didn’t read in a long ass time.
But lets give it a shot anyway!
5. Servamp
:I my white whale
So here’s a thing with me and Servamp. It used to be a manga that I read as a guilty pleasure before getting super into it and going NO this actually has some very good characters and plots and I like the villainess and how nobody the heroes in this manga (most of them at least) are honestly just as morally black as the villains and it’s a complicated situation. But alas this was in time where it was really tough to find translations for manga that wasn’t too popular and after some time I couldn’t find any reliable ones anymore. Fast-forward to now and you can find it quite easily!! But I’m having trouble getting back into it ;;; It takes a while for it to hit its stride and while I know I greatly enjoyed it before I just struggle rereading it even tho I say ‘ok ill reread servamp’ at least twice a year. I can’t give it a honest rating but it remains as my top 5 just cuz it lives in my head rent free. Who knows maybe this will be the year I finally do it, god knows i wanna see my kids again.
4. Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki Kun
Probably the show with the shakiest standing that could be replaced at any moment as I get more into manga cuz again I don’t read a lot and rare are the ones that leave very long term impact. But Nozaki kun consistently makes me laugh and smile and the cast is just super loveable, no matter who’s chapter it is you know it’ll be a riot. I think that earns it it’s spot well enough yknow
3. Jujutsu Kaisen
To no one’s surprise. Idk how long will Jujutsu Kaisen keep up on my faves list but it’s def doing numbers now. I love the characters, I love that there is so much to cut into, I love that the girls are treated so well and realistically, I love that 90% of he plot is Gojo’s fault for being too gay to function. There’s so much character and intrigue and I love how it’s set up as a school anime but the trauma of the situation is really explicit and stated in canon, this isnt your happy go lucky shonen school where you get the fuck beat out of you but you are fine. People can and will die, important people ;-; manga readers you know who i mean but I wont stay it here ;-; Also I love the approach to morality it has, like characters feel very human. They arent paragons of ideal that know exactly what is right, they act towards their own self interests, what they want and what they THINK is right. There is a good and a bad side but the characters on the good side arent morally pure you know. Nobara is doing all of this only out of self intrest, Megumi is very explicit in saying he will save only people he deems worthy of saving, even Yuji is selfishly selfless. It’s all well and good to want to save everyone but most people don’t have a capacity to think or function on that scale. Even when they are doing something for the good of everyone they will rarely do it For the good of everyone, if you know what I mean. Good of everyone is a byproduct of the other thing they want to accomplish. It’s just good and human and uh Gege when can we get Inumaki’s backstory please please please
2. Talentless Nana
I honestly said most of everything I could have said in my recent anime post jbjhbhj Talentless Nana is just another very human manga that dabbles in a lot of stuff but at it’s core (at least how I read it) is about recovering from abusive, atoning for your wrong doings and fighting back against the oppressor you once considered to be on your side. Holds the record for my quickest manga read which just goes to show what a fun and fast paced read it is. I wished it reached wider audience with the anime cuz it really deserves it but what can you do, I’ll just keep enjoying it the way it is <3
1. Beastars
We live in a SOCIETY
It’s honestly a bit hard to describe why Iike Beastars so much because ive been following it for quite a bit and it’s not as easy to concisely talk about something you’ve been following as something you binged. I talked about the little parts, about how physical humor is next to non expression vise, how I adore that Legosi and Haru actually advance past will they wont they and spend good amount of the manga in an actual relationship discussing relationship stuff such as sex and possible kids and marriage, imagine kids, not all relationship trouble ends once you get together. Also the manga ends with them proposing to each other and I’m ;-;. I love Louis and how fuckin overdramatic he is about everything he does like goddamit okay we get it you are a theater kid we get it. I love how all the minor characters are loveable and unique characters in their own right. I love all the cool animal facts and how the world was designed to fit in the animals functionally, like they aren’t just animals living in a human space they are animals in living in a space that is recognizable as human but still clearly designed with the intention of housing animals, along with their laws and common courtesies and all the little details as a whole. It’s a lot about society and a lot about identity and figuring out who you are and what your role is. How do you fit in with society as a whole, how do you fit in with people around you, what will you do with your life, what do you want to do, will society let you do it and what will you do if it doesnt. I think i just really like it when people take concepts such as these and run with them thoughtfully, like how would the society look if it was made out of animals, what would laws be, how would people find love there. I just love the detail and the humanity in the work. Idk Beastars is hard to describe to me, I just love it a whole lot and iiiiits my favorite manga probably ever

Queer
To me this is an umbrella term I don't really get because it's incredibly simular to just being bi, pan or curious.
I've always kinda classes myself under either bi or pan when I'm just like walking by people I can look at someone no matter how they identify & see that they are pretty. I love humans they're such an intresting thing to look at a person in a way is to look like art & I'm not trying to sound like I'm high or something but I genuinely just love people maybe it's cause I'm big on character design & photography but yeha that's just how my head works.
So to me I'm like okay so I like everyone or more or less, I don't give a shit about your gender as long as your an decent human to hang around with.
& I still stand by that but idk if that's my sexuality I've never been in a long term relationship I was in a short term one whixh was a nice situation where the guy was a lil sweetie & we kinda dated but never fully discussed it & we just decided we liked hanging out & being close cause we're teens & what the hell defines a relationship these days, it wasnt a bad break up we knew we wouldn't see each other much he had work & college & at the time I had new mates & college so we kinda were like if it's meant to be we'll connect later on & we still check up on each other sometimes even though we're hours appart & are doing very different things.
But other than that nada I was kisses by several of my best friend when I was a kid but I can't remember if I liked it & as a 6yr old probably fucking not lol so that's where I am I do find men more appealing tbh they're intresting to me which is apparently important in my head lol
I've had crushes on girls so again I know people are attractive but not really understanding what attraction is is a bit weird cause I can look at a person & go 'they're really good looking' but it's about chemistry & personality as well so litrally I'm gonna have to resort back to saying I'm queer or idk cause I literally have nothing to go off.
Personality wise from people I've met I lean more towards boys, I find the type of guys I like are repeativly very nice & funny & affectionate & I dig that
Where as girls have kinda just rubbed me the wrong way I just can't stand what people classes as 'bitches' or typical white girls I'm really not trying to offend anyone here but the UK is clapped seriously its the nerdy girls & the gamer girls who are decent people & you can have a good time with. Idk maybe it's cause I'm trans & I hate myself for being born F but still sometimes I just want to shoot myself around some girls that just go on & on & on like I like people who talk it makes things less awkward & if your confident I'll be more open to you but a part of my brain just switches off & I know people from like love Island or whatever they have relationships like that where your like married & your wife is talking about your day & a part of your brain just switches off & thinks about something else, I just wouldn't like my relationship to be like that no matter your gender when your telling you partner something you want to know their listening.
Idk this is a bit of a waffle about me not really understanding my sexuality because my gender identity is kinda colliding with it unexpectedly
Like I'm not completely out as a guy so if Im like 'I'm gay' then rn that's lesbian & tbh I dont really have internal homophobia about my sexuality I just have bounced form so many label it's annoying & I want something to actually be a solid fact& rn Im like idk yes I am definitely a guy who likes other guys a lot more than I like girls & yes gay men can egknolage that girls are good looking so I guess untill I have a relationship with a girl I am just gonna say I'm pan or queer cause they are the terms I'm using atm maybe more towards queer when I meet new people cause then I can just be like look idk yet cause I've never been in a relationship
It's annoying for me because I don't want to offend people if I'm like 'I'm pan' & then I'm like 'I'm gay' like a month later yanno I did that jumping in secondary cause I was really confused & then I thought I had understood myself but now I'm like 'is this the right term?' all over again :////
Honestly if anyone wants to chat to me about anything or about this lgbt stuff then hit me up I try to be as non antisocial I can 😅

[Jack Will • Auggie Pullman]
(slightly unfinished. ive been wanting to write this ship for a while, but i dont know how big the wonder fanbase is. enjoy ig. its gay)
Jack Will
August smiled. He smiled that kind of smile that hugged and cuddled your insides. That made your heart flutter and the butterflies in your stomach flap against your ribs. That made your heart skip a beat. Auggie's smile always made me really happy, and I don't know why. In a friend way, of course. He's my friend. I didn't even notice that I was spacing out, thinking about it. He waved his hand infront of my face. "Oh, sorry!" I apologized , trying to keep my stuff together.
It was Saturday and me and Auggie decided to hang out at his house and play on his Xbox. It was something we did alot. Whenever we could, actually. His parents and mine never really cared if i walked there after school, so we hung out often. I really liked being around Auggie. Though I had other friends, theres something different about him. I've just noticed this, and all of a sudden I've been getting a bit more--- uneasy. Nervous. Around him.
My shorter friend paused the game on his Xbox, which caught me off guard. I tilted my head in a sign of confusion. He placed his remote next to his seat, and stood up from his beanbag chair. I knew it was serious, cause Auggie was usually never this serious. Unless he was really upset. I let him cry on my shoulder sometimes. He looked serious, I could read his expression "Jack, dude, are you okay?" He started
"You've been acting really weird around me this month. Are you okay? Did I do something -- A-Are you mad at me?" His voice was shaky. I stood up too. He continued. "If you have something to say to me, you can. We're friends, Jack! "
My heart almost split in two.
"I just haven't been able to think straight lately...." I began to respond after I processed what August said to me. I gulped. "I'm fine, if just been kind of thinking about something. I'm sorry for being weird." My voice got lower as I continued.
Auggie seemed to calm down a bit, but he was still looking a bit uneasy. He looked like he was about to say something, but thats when his dad opened the door, without knocking. I actually jumped back, kind of suprised. "Whats going on, space cadets?"
Both of us were obviously getting a bit out of comfortable -- not about each other, probably just because of our feelings. I'd have to admit though, Auggies dad was really cool. He could make anyone laugh, even in the worst of situations. Better than my dad. "Why's the game paused?" He asked, pointing a finger to the TV screen and our Minecraft game.
"Oh, me and Jack have a project coming up. We're talking about it." August tried to cover up our conversation. His dad raised up a dirty blonde eyebrow. "On a Saturday?"
We actually had to talk to him for a little while longer before he left. I mean, we convinced him about an imaginary extra credit english project. And he believed it, too, He left, looking as if he was going to Auggies sisters room. August turned to me, softening his look. He smiled, actually- giving me simular feelings to before. "What's been on your mind...?"
"Uh, Someone..."
"Who? " He looked confused
I had a lingering urge to say who it really was. I kind of just wanted to get it over with, though. I think my hands were actually really sweaty, so I tried to play it off. I ended up wiping them on my shorts. I bit the side of my cheek- kind of like biting your lip, but less noticable. "I think I have a crush on someone."
August smirked a little. When we both sat back down on our beanbag chairs and continued the game, he leaned it. He looked genuinely interested in it. "Who is she? Whats her name? Oh dude, don't tell me its Summer."
I nervously tapped on the red button on my remote. "No, me and Summer are friends. I would never like her. Didn't she say she isn't intrested in dating anyone?" I strayed away on the fact that the person on my mind was totally Auggie and Auggie was definitely 100% a boy. I wasn't even gay! Do I even have a crush on him? I thought I liked girls---
"Uhh, Is it Charlotte?" He guessed
"No way."
"Then who is it?"
I bit the side of my cheek so hard that it actually could of came right off. I tried paying attention to the wooden house we were making but my fingers eventually stopped responding to the Xbox controller. Auggie noticed my cheek looking bothered. He looked concerned, but he said nothing. "Uhm, They--" I tried to think of something believable. "He...I mean, she doesn't... You don't know her, Auggie."
"Are you okay?"
"Yes!"

GoT S8 Episode 4 "I don't even care about the title of this" Recap
So here I am once again (I didn't do a Recap of the battle episode cuz frankly I'm not a huge fan of battle stuff, and it was very messy the way D&D executed it, there was not much stuff to analyze so yeah) and well the way some people talked about Jon yesterday really had me worried (and hey if you hate him now or don't believe in him it's fine, not your fault but the writers') but when I watched the episode I got a completely different impression (which is fine I mean sharing a ship doesn't mean we have to agree on every single thing) and I will talk about it.
Oh yeah I am not a fan of D, nor of aegony and I still believe in Pol! Jon and jonsa so if you are not intrested in reading about any of that this is not the Recap for ya.
.
.
Funeral & Feast
From the very beginning of the episode I was like 👀👀. We get a shot of Ser Jorah's corpse and D mourning him and then we get the exact same thing with Theon and Sansa (drawing this parallels between them is truly intresting) but we only get Jon's sad expression after we get Sansa sobbing which makes me think he was watching her (this is also supported by the fact that D was not in his direct line of vision and the fact he is not standing anywhere near her in that moment or afterwards).
Jon gives a pretty emotional speech about the fallen and the future generations, and the director made sure we get a shot of Sansa behind Jon as he talks about the future generations (aka children) when a more open shot would have made it more vague and meaning about everyone's children and not just Jon & Sansa's, I mean for me the foreshadowing was strong.
The pyres are lit, and I guess this is where the rumours about WF burning started (gosh I am so glad they didn't had D burn it) .
Everyone is celebrating the victory in the Great Hall, everything starts on a serious note, until Gendry gets up the benches to go looking for Arya, and D calls on him. Ok serious talk, did any of y'all notice that look of worry that passes between Jon and Dadvos??? Like they were waiting for the worst, why in the Seven Hells would Jon expect the worst out of someone he supposedly loves and believes in? Cuz he does not. And yeah he is relieved but not relaxed when she names him Lord of Storms End (k seriously i thought d&d had completely forgot about the riverlands,stormlands, westerlands,the Reach, dorne, and everywhere else that was not "plot relevant" ) and the fact that no one even knew who was ruling there like? ??? Didn't Jon sent letters to every lord in season 4 or 5??? Like how do they not know this???
Back to Jon, he looks puzzled like he doesn't know what game she is playing. While she is patting herself in the back for getting rid of a man that had a better claim to the throne than her. Tyrion is a dumbass, cuz D can't name Gendry shit until she actually has the alliance of the stormlands but whatevs, she is not a politiciiian she is a kweeeen.
So yeah the mead and wine get passed around and everyone seems to be having a good time except for 1 person: D
Why is this? Well because she is not their hero, not really, and she knows, I mean she watched the NK walking through her flames, if not for ser Jorah she would be dead and that can't be cuz she is special she has to be cuz she is the last Targy except now she knows that is also not true, and we get her looking at Jon.
And Jon??? Well he doesn't give her the time of the day (again if he loved her so much he would be spending time with her, trying to include her in the conversation with him and his friends) cuz he is lauguing and drinking with Tormund and Sansa (honestly Sansa was so flirty with that "c'mon, do it in believe in you" like i have used that same line girl what), he turns around for a second and smiles at d (he is having a good time and why wouldn't he smile, she is not the one that made him smile he is smiling cuz he is happy and on his way to getting drunk) thing is Sansa catches him sharing a smile with D and her reaction is so out of proportion for a "sister" when she was all smiles and heart eyes not 2 seconds ago, her smile disappears and she leaves, what is Jon's reaction? He turns around and watches her leave super confused, D is smug until she realizes Jon didn't really pick her, she didn't won cuz he still is looking at Sansa and not back at her.
Things get crazy with Tormund and he shouts for anyone to hear that Jon is a "King" and then only then Jon turns to see D's reaction, and she gives him a forced smile that he returns because he doesn't want to antagonize her. By this point Jon is making 0 effort to resume their "relationship" but also doesn't want to be percived as her enemy.
And we get a terrifying look on D's face as she sees everyone around her celebrating without a care for her, their kween, cuz they would rather have Jon or Sansa, and she can't take it, so much she has to go.
Now we get a drinking game between Tyrion, Brienne, Jaime and Pod, is all cool until Tyrion mentions the fact Brienne is a virgin, she gets upset and leaves, Jaime goes for her and Tormund has the realization that he has no chance with Brienne. Now he goes to complain to the Hound who gives 0 fucks about his lonely soul, and suddenly everyone gets a sexual partner (everything is very heterosexual of course, we know the only gays in westeros are dead or in the Iron Islands) and we see Sansa watching (this is what she wants that she doesn't have, she doesn't want sex she wants romance but she can't have it with the one she wants) and she has a 1 on 1 with the Hound that I have already talked about.
Gendry finally finds Arya shooting arrows on her own, and tells her the good news, not only that but he proposes. And oh, I knew Arya wouldn't want to get married but this was hard to see, we still get a kiss so she loves him but that is not the life she wants for herself.
Aegonyyyy & "The Truth"
Jon is looking miserable in his room. I mean if anything has been consistent with Jon is the fact that he wants to deal with everything on his own, but the fact that he has to deal with this whole existential crisis and the up coming war must be exhausting. D enters his room unannounced (fooking rude, but I don't expect any better cuz she has never shown him respect at all, even Jon knocks when entering the office he shares with Sansa) he stumbles up (he is drunk totally unprepared for any conversation she wants to have) and gives her his condolences about Jorah (meaning this is the 1st conversation since the parentage reveal they have, and D is the one to iniciate it not Jon, again nothing about this makes me think he loves her) he doesn't hug her or approach her any further, as always D is the one forcing intimacy between them, honestly we get no real reaction from Jon when she tells him Jorah loved her but she couldn't love him cuz she loves Jon.
One of the cornerstone's of a romantic relationship is the frist time someone declares their love, and usually when one half of the pairing doesn't say it back it screams trouble. A kiss does not equal love, and it's not a good thing to do when someone is pouring their feelings for you. Now Jon does seem more into the kiss but as the director's commented he remembers what she is (not who but what) and pulls back. Jon's expression is not good if they selling me a romance, he doesn't look tortured by his desire and love for his aunt, but disgusted and defeated like he thought this was over but apparently nope he still has to be like this.
D has never respected Jon or his feelings (like when s7 was airing I remember I said she reminded me of Tw1l1ght when she watched Jon sleep, and how little she respects his privacy) and this imbalance in their relationship is again present when she starts complaining about how people love him and not her (gee I wonder if that has anything to do with setting your dragons on them when you arrived) like really, not once she worried about his feelings about not being who he thought he was, the only thing she cares about is the IT and if he will get in the way. Jon is visibly annoyed while giving his back to her so she doesn't seem but the audience does. What's more she expects Jon to lie to his family isolating himself from them to make her happy (that's fucked up) I do believe Jon intended to tell them everything (he just doesn't know how, and is understandably afraid cuz he never felt truly a part of the pack, and now he thinks he really is not) now he sees D is not going to let go of him, of the North, he can't say anything (i mean he totally should tho, I know d&d are just doing this to hold onto pol!Jon and dark!dany for as long as they can before being all smug like bet you didn't see it coming, except i do, I see u villians. Jk maybe I am wrong xd) he still wants to say it, and D goes absolutely crazy saying the truth is gonna destroy them (why dear isn't that the name of your epic couple song?) And that she wants to live in her selfish ass fantasy while stating how threatened she feels by Sansa (by this point Jon knows she burned the Tarlys for not bending and Sansa is not bending, if she bent know d would surely find it suspicious) the ONLY way he can protect Sansa as long as D is still at WF (and maybe forever) is if he is in the middle, her feelings for him have to be enough to stop her from hurting Sansa, or at least that is how I see his PoV right now, better for Sansa to be alive and hate him than having D kill her.
********The Braime is scene was so good tho 😢😢😢😍😍😍
War Council & Stark Meeting
Or the moment most people wanted to throw Jon in the trash...
So they making stupid ass, basic plans to defeat chess master Cersei.
And there, told ya D wanted to burn shit down before Missandei. Jon gets her to listen (Tyrion is grateful af)and instead of burning shit down like idiots they will lay a siege. But then Sansa raises an important issue everyone should care about: The physical and mental recovery of their armies. But D is like crazy tbh, there is no better word and she still treats the Long night as Jon's war and the northern as Sansa's people, and my girl rightfully calls her out. Jon puts a stop to that and he was heavily critiziced for it, but like he did the right thing?? I mean i hated how hurt Sansa looked, but Jon is trying (still) real hard to protect her, but there is nothing he can do if Sansa keeps antagonizing D (did y'all see how out of proportion was her reaction to a valid question??) also I think Jon wants to get D as far away from his family (specially Sansa) as possible.
Onto the reunión it was pretty telling how Sansa and Jon were already fighting it out like they do, both lost in their little world til Arya is like guys pls stop. Arya served as an excellent contrast between what sisterly concern looks like and what Sansa is showing. Jon is desperate, he has to go with D, not only because his family will not be safe if Cersei is alive, but because D feels they owe her that, and D wants him by her side and that is the only way she won't accuse him or his family of plotting against her, by this point i don't think jon has any plan to separate himself from her, he will do what she wants for as long as she wants because she has the power to hurt the people he loves and he rather be unhappy than losing his family forever. So he makes Bran tell them and makes them swear they won't tell anyone (he is explicitly defying D's wishes here) why?? Well there could be many reasons, his last act of free will, or maybe he wants the Starks to hate him and get him out of the pack (he doesn't even consider himself a part of the pack, and from his PoV Sansa doesn't either, cuz he is an idiot just not in the way people think he is) for choosing his Targ family over them, I lean toward the later but who knows?? I just know something bad had to happen for Arya to leave like that with no intention of returning and Sansa not saying goodbye to Jon and just wistfully watch from the battlements.
Farewell Jon
Again people hated Jon for this. But imho Jon is clearly not well in that moment, he looks tired, depressed. And i doubt very much this is the last scene with Ghost he will have.
Also Jon says he wishes he could go North is pretty sad?? If Jon loved d that much he would be sad about being at odds with his family but determined he is doing the right thing, he would be at least a little eager or something, not saying he wishes he could go up north and hide himself from everything. Also Tormund saying a part of the north will always be in Jon is foreshadowing that he will definitely come back.
Jon self deprecating "I hope it's a girl" when gilly tells him they want to name the baby after him. Jon is not alright.
He can't say goodbye to Ghost because this is not goodbye, this is not the last time they will see each other, and Jon can't bring himself to say goodbye (tbh he looked like the saddest boy ever, he didn't look like an uncaring ass to me) because ghost is his tie to his stark side, and he just can't part from that (also I am good with Jon not taking him to the South, like we don't wanna see my pure boy die)
Tyrion, she is in love with Jon u idiot.
So yeah D is with the dragons, and i don't know about y'all but Rhaegal is flying just fine (I think D didn't want Jon riding Rhaegal anymore to avoid more talk about how kingly he is).
So yeah Sansa is seeing this lizards fly, and Tyrion approaches her, she is not even trying to disguise how much she loathes the idea of D being kween, Tyrion is trying to work out why, it would certainly make things easier if the Lady of WF and the crown had a civil relationship. Sansa acts very snappy and brings up the good relationship the Warden of the North has with their kween (I want to slap Tyrion everytime he says "she is your kween too" to any other character) Tyrion very unsubtly says Jon is not coming back, and Sansa gets so emotional, she tells him she doesn't want Jon to go South.
Tyrion is baffled (cuz he is boo boo the fool) as to why Sansa is so against D, and even tells her how much more power she'll have if Jon is out of the picture. She doesn't want power tho she wants Jon. Sansa cleverly points out Tyrion is scared of D, and asks him why he thinks she would be a good kween (lmaooo this is what it looks like when u a brainwashed fool, Tyrion straight up says he believes in D as opposed to Jon saying they needed her armies) Tyrion says bs and Sansa says what if there was a better option. (This might save Jon's ass later tbh)
Welp that escalated fast
So now, we have the stupidest team ever traveling by boat to KL or dragonstone??? Somewhere in between maybe.
Varys and Tyrion are having a chat about Jon's parentage. Welp. Varys is Team Snow now I guess and Tyrion is still a fool. Honestly none of this bodes well for the D.
Now she is flying magestically with her 2 dragons when bam! Euron sinks her battleship and her battle dragon and her everything.
D, like the impulsive fool she is, charges against the Greyjoy fleet only to discover that they all have Scorpions, and she is risking it too much.
Everyone swims to the shore (honestly how Lucky they are that everyone knows how to swim) but Missandei is missing.
Cersei is the supreme bitch drinking wine and relishing in how unprepared D team is. Missandei is chained (😢) and very scared.
In WF, Sansa gets the news (who sent her this raven?? Varys is my bet) and Jaime overhears. Sansa says she wishes she could watch Cersei's execution (and this was pretty harsh but Cersei deserves Sansa's hate so..) Jaime gets unsettled and that paired up with that scene of the previously on where Cersei reveals she is pregnant plus all that stuff on 8x02 about him doing things for his family, I guess it's pretty clear he will try to save Cersei for the baby's sake not out of love but because the baby is innocent and is his, he already has fought D and knows his chances to survive again are scarce so he has to hurt Brienne now if he doesn't want her to follow him.
This shit is racist as hell but the writing is poor and everyone hated it so I guess it's something.
Now we get to the parley. And idk why Tyrion keeps trying (I mean i guess it's for the baby as well) is clear Cersei would rather die than leave the throne to d (which is just as well cuz d thinks the same).
They try to negotiate but both kweens are too selfish and entitled for it to really work. Missandei gets beheaded, but before she says Dracarys (how sad they don't let her say I love you to Greyworm one last time and instead is used as a permission for d to go bersek on innocent people that are not responsible for Cersei's actions) honestly is disappointing we don't get to see if D would have allowed her and GW to leave, it's sad she doesn't get her own story apart from D's handmaiden and that her own death is not about herself but to cause pain to a white woman (that already has a super racist storyline) and turn her full dark (I mean she has been making the descent on her own just fine whyyy u do this d&d).
That’s it, that’s my take. I am looking forward to next week.

Story of my (gay) life: Chapter 2: From Primary school to High school
Hi everyone,
I know I wasn't active in the last few weeks/months. I'm so sorry for that but I was busy with school and work stuffs, etc.
This chapter won't be gay related but must be written to tell you the whole story.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I mentioned at the end of chapter 1, I became introverted because I knew that something was "wrong" with me and I didn't want to give a chance to let the others knlw.
I was 7 when I started the primary school. It was hard for me. I've had only 1 kid to hang with. She was a girl and she was also introverted but for some reason we got along well.
As the time passed by we tried to get closer to our mates. She tried to get closer to the girls and I tried to get closer to the boys. That was sucks. They bullied me. They were very aggressive with me, they have threatened me, made repeated negative comments about my appearence, and so on. No one did nothing, neither my parents and neither my teachers. I've had to bear with these things.
That was the moment when I tried to get closer to the girls. They accepted me. You can imagine what happened after that... bullying reached a higher level. I had to bear with this for 8 whole years.
These years had a big effect on me, on my personality. I was afraid of the people. I always walked with a head down (I mean when I've walked I always stared at the pavement). I was afraid to go alone anywhere, I always went with my mom or my siblings.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the primary school I've continued my studies in a high school which was a bit far from my home so I've had to move in a dormitory. It wasn't as bad as I imagined. I mean there was no bullying, my room mates were cool guys and the other habitant/resident (don't know which one is better) as well.
But the high school wasn't as good... it was the same... same story. There was a girl who was "excluded" (?), like me. So there were 2 different groups in the class. We together and the other 33 people. But this time was different. Together we were strong enough to bear with these things and we had 4 good years together. It has changed me. I've got myself back. I wasn't afraid of the people anymore.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know maybe it's a bit short story. If you are intrested in more details. Feel free to ask in comments or private messages. :)

Ryden conspiracy theories/evidence/pls just be frens now...+ a short history of P!atd...(part 1)
DISCLAIMER I find all of this stuff on the internet so idk if it's yours just tell me and I will make sure you get credited anyways onwards...
Oh and another thing I don't hate Sarah. Sarah is a queen and Brendon and her are happy and I wouldn't want to ruin a happy couple cos that would be unfair anyhow oh and I also think it's important to have a bit of Panic! history that many people might not know about as it gives you an idea of the kind of time frame that im talking about also its intresting too.
And if u don't know what Ryden is (tbf idk why ur here but this will educate u) it's basically the ship name of Ryan Ross (ex guitarist and backing vocalist of panic!) and Brendon Urie (singer and last man standing)
Pre-Panic
Ryan Ross and Spencer Smith (ex-drummer of Panic!) have been friends even since they were little the photo below would prove this
They're so adorable 😊😊
In 9th grade they decide that they want to start up a band btw for reference Ryan and Spencer at that time attend (Bishop Gorman high school) and they invite Brent Wilson from Palo Verde high school to come and try out for bass along with another guy called Trevor they formed a band called Pet Salamnder this was when they were around 16 ish (They acctually still have a website for the band and you can go check it out if you want)
There some of the pics on the website but check out their bios as well because they made me laugh....
Here are some of their pics tho
Spencer and Ryan and the whole band together (Ryan😂😂)
Anyways don't really know what happened to Pet Salamander but in short they kind of lost Trevor (don't know correct me if im wrong but I think Trevor was the guitarist in the way things worked out it would make sense and I think there was another band they created in between these 2 bands but idk its not important) The band now needed a new guitarist. Brent who went to the same high school as Brendon told him he should audition for their band so Brendon did just that and became the guitarist. Orginally Ryan was meant to be the lead singer but Brendon then became the lead singer because they heard him do his singing and they though he was good. At the time especially Ryan and Brendon were having a hard time with their families and their education as they wanted to quit high school and as a result I think they both got kicked out of their houses . Brendon got a job at a smoothie shack to try and earn some money to pay for rent. He also would sing to people for tips. In other words they were hella broke.
Here is a screenshot from Ryan's livejournal (which he has now deleted) where Brendon would post underneath
I love ya' baby! wednesday. practice. be there of be....GAY!!
Brendon 😂😂
Anyways Ryan and Brendon started creating the demos for their album and Ryan decided to send them to Pete Wentz who was in the LV area recording under the cork tree with FOB. Pete listened to the demos and signed them up to his new record label decaydance after hearing them perform 2/3 songs.
I'm gonna leave you with some 2004 recording sessions this is filmed on a potato but is somehow high quality content of Ryan doing a this is our apartment tour its great
youtube
So yeah that's cool and also hilarious in it's own ways (gay bars!! 😂😂)
AFYCSO era 2005/6
AFYCSO was released on the 27th September 2005 on that same day Ryan posted something in his livejournal (I'm not sure if it was just something to commemorate it being released or if he was acctually in a relationship at this time but here is what he put)
'Whisper babe...i'm as good as it gets in this town.whisper babe..i'm a fever you can't sweat out.These are my deepest thoughts and secrets under a microscope or spotlight.Forgive me if i'm not quite ready to give them to you.it's such a different feeling..when I see you smiling and singing back to me i'm still playing different pictures in my head that arn't so pleasent. I'm doing the best now to live in the song and not just the meaning.'
(Yes this could be about Brendon but when you read it again it dosen't sound like that at all it seems as if hes talking about the lyrics and the meanings of the songs of which have things he had to deal with in his childhood his dad being an alcoholic ect. But he tries to be happy with the fans who are smiling and singing and live in the moment not just the past)
Obviously AFYCSO became popular especially the song I write sins not tragedies came out but there's many different interviews and pic that i'm going to share below.
This is the one where Ryan says that Brendon washes his hair and he blushes red. It's adorable 😊
youtube
Here is another 2005 interview by the same girl who thought Pete was called Jason 😂 but anyways it's old like just look at Ryan's hair he's in his troll phase still 😂
youtube
This is another old interview that shows them acctually performing and only contain Brendon and Ryan talking about the band they're so awkward its adorable.
And here's a pic of them from a photoshoot
Idk but Brent looks so confused rn 😂
(Look at Brendon as well staring at Ryan...hmm..😉)
And here's an adorable pic of them together my bbs 😊❤
Look at them they're soo adorable ❤❤👌😊
Anyways 2006 is when it all became big for the boys who announced a tour and where becoming bigger than ever. At the end of 2005 to 2006 both Brendon and Ryan began dating scene queens Audrey and Jac. Pics below
Yup this is them together.
Idk when they breakup but they break up and some evidence that I've found online is very interesting.
Here is screenshots of chats that Audrey and Jac had online. The first picture shows that Jac is blaming Brendon for turning her bf (Ryan) gay
The next one shows kinda the same thing exept this time Audrey blamed Ryan for turning Brendon gay
Hmmmm... All very interesting I think....
(Note there's another conversation or so that I want to include in part one but it's way too long to put on this one post so i'm going to do a little post to finish off part 1. And also i'm obviously going to work on part 2 straight away but I just feel like the whole panic! and especially Ryden stuff needs to be updated abd i also find it super interesting as well. Also I feel I need to adress all the lyrics that could somehow lead to something to do with one another there's so much stuff out here and I need it all in one place cos im fed up of trawling the internet for all the theories and stuff never getting anywhere 😂)
#emo trash#emo#p!atd#panic! at the disco#brendon urie#ryan ross#ryden was real#ryden#spencer smith#brent wilson#pete wentz#afycso#a fever you can't sweat out#2004#2005#2006

Desire Part Two
*TRIGGER WARNING* This part touches base with a very strong topic. This part mentions talk of Suicide. This story is going to talk about not only love and romance but is going to be talking about sensitive topics and strong topics. So if this topic is something you cant read then please back out.
~Nanako's p.o.v We arrived Hazakura Lounge the place wasn't as full of people as I thought it would be. The first thing that Ryo did when we walked through the door, was buy us all a drink. I honestly didn't feel like I should, but Oliver had told me that I should take it easy and enjoy myself. Yea, that was easier said than done. Oliver didn't stick around with me and Ryo, he walked off to do his own thing leaving Ryo and I to ourselves at the table that we took a seat at. There were so many thoughts going through my head that I couldn't even think of a single thing to say to him. I was finally alone with him and this was how I handled the situation. I could feel my hear beating faster and faster, like it was going to explode out of my chest. This was crazy he was my best friend, a best friend whom I had a crush on. Why couldn't I just find the words to tell him how I felt?
Ryo: Are you okay? You look like you're about to pass out. Nanako: Y-yes... It's just that.. Ryo: When did you and Oliver start dating? He asked. I looked at him thinking that he was crazy for thinking that Oliver and I were a couple. Well then again Oliver and I were always hanging out together doing things that would maybe give that impression that we were together together. Nanako: We're not, he's just a good friend. Just because we do stuff together don't mean... Ryo: Right sorry about that... I suppose that if that were the case you and I would thought to be a couple. He said, I wasn't sure if I put my own foot in my mouth or if he had done it for me. Nanako: So, why aren't you dating anyone? You've never seemed to interested in girls. Ryo: You know it's funny, Andy asked me the same thing before we all left the house. Why do you ask? Do you know someone that is intrested in me? He said jokingly, before taking a drink out of his cup that sat in front of him.
Nanako: What? No, I was just trying to ask why my best friend never has a girlfriend. You know what let's move off this topic.. Ryo: So how've you been? I haven't seen you in over two years. I thought that maybe you were upset with me or something. He siad. I understood where he was coming from, I didn't really stay in touch with him after he moved on to college campus. At that point in time it was hard for me to make sure that Oliver was okay and talk with Ryo while he was away at school. Nanako: Well we're here now, it really is good to see you. I've missed our heart to hearts. Ryo: I missed you as well. So what have you been up to? Clearly you're not dating Oliver, any guy that I should know about? Nanako: No, it's just that... These day's I like to make sure that Oliver is okay. I said before I could stop the words from leaving my mouth. Oliver was so far into the closet with his sexual identity, that he didn't want anyone other than me to know about his secret. Ryo looked at me as if he was concerned about Oliver. Ryo: Is he okay? Nanako: Yes.. Look he really don't want many people to know, so can we change the subject. I said in a quick pace to change the subject. He agreed to change the subject. So we started to talk about other things, mainly how his studies were going at Britechester. It was amazing having to hear how much he has grown, how much we've grown. God I wanted nothing more than to tell him my feeling for him. But this didn't seem like the right place or time to do so. So rather then telling him my feelings we ordered a few more drinks, and for the first time in a long time, I was having fun with my best friend. A friend that I have lost two years with because of taking care of another. I didn't mind taking care of Oliver, but Oliver had been right I used him as an excuse just to avoid telling Ryo my true feelings for him. ~Oliver's p.o.v~ I had to step away from everyone at the bar. I was having a hard time being around Andy. Besides I wanted to let Nanako have some time alone with Ryo. She needed a break from me and my own personal issues. I walked out the back door of the bar and headed over to this fenced off area, that had a great view of a waterfall. it was an amazing sight.
Mt. Komorebi was such a beautiful place. This was the place that I would love to settle down with the man of my dream's, maybe even raise a family with. However I knew that, that was never going to happen. No guy would ever find me attractive. If they did it was just to use me for one thing, a quick one night stand. I honestly didn't know what I was thinking having a crush on a straight guy. I knew that it would never ever happen. Though I suppose that I wasn't to only gay man in the world to fall in love with a straight man.
I wish that I knew what I was doing with my life. I never went back to school. I have a dead end job, and I was a hopeless romantic. Suddenly out of nowhere Andy walked up beside me, taking in this same breath taking view that Mt. Komorebi had to offer.
Andy: There you are, I suppose that the whole bar scene isn't you thing? Oliver: I just figured I'd let Nanako and Ryo have some time alone to catch up. Why aren't you inside? Plenty of girls in there for you to talk to. Andy: I've already got a girlfriend... Well if you can call her that. He said sounding down about having to think about his so called girlfriend that he had back home. I didn't want to pry into his life, however he seemed like was just waiting for someone to talk to. So I took in a deep breath and started to ask him why he didn't sound at all happy about the girlfriend that he had back home. Oliver: Do you want to talk about it? Andy: Bro, I barely even know you. Why would I talk to a complete stranger about my love life? He said defensively, trying to act all tough on the outside. But I could tell that he was dying on the inside. Oliver: Because I can tell that it's killing you not to have someone to talk to about whatever was going on.
Andy: Well if you're willing to listen.. He began, while he slowly took in a deep breath. Andy: She... She caught me in bed with someone else. It was a really shitty thing of me to do but.. Oliver: You didn't want to hurt her by saying it's over, so you thought that sleeping with someone would mean you didn't have too? Andy: Not exactly. It's much more complicated than that. Look I'd really just rather drink and forget about it. I could see that whatever this something was that it was something more than just cheating on his girlfriend. But I wasn't going to just give up on him. Something was telling me that I just needed to be here for him. I couldn't explain it, it was just something that I felt I had to do. Oliver: Drinking isn't going to make everything go away. It'll still be there the next day. Andy: And that's just it, no matter how much I seem to drink... I can never stay sleeping. It was those words that he said that sent this rush of unexplained emotion. But mainly it was fear. He was talking about committing suicide. Oliver: Killing yourself isn't the answer.. Andy: Have you ever though about it when life started to become too much to handle? I stood there and actually remembered that I had thought that. But I had Nanako there at my side to help me though the tough time that I was going through. I was lucky to have had her in my life. But Andy on the other had sounded much more lost than I had been when I first came out to my parents. But I wasn't about to tell me that I had. Instead I lied. I was able to convince him to join me back inside with Ryo and Nanako. We all continued to drink and have a good time. Both me and Nanako took a seat in front of the stage while both Ryo and Andy got up there and made a total fool of themselves.
I wanted to tell Nanako about what Andy had said to me. I was worried about him, I couldn't bare the thought of him hurting himself or worse over something so stupid. I just don't understand what could be so bad that he had to cheat on his girlfriend. And why he couldn't just walk away from the relationship. Though despite what he had told me over a half hour ago he seemed normal up there on stage playing the piano. One thing was for certain, I was going to keep a close eye on him. Just to make sure that he didn't do anything stupid. Because if anything were to happen to him and I didn't do anything to help him after he basically said what he had to me. I would never be able to forgive myself. So for the rest of the vacation I would watch him closely, but once the vacation was over... That's when I was going to worry. ~ To Be Continued ~ Even though that this is just a story, suicide is very real and is something that some think about. But if you or someone you know has ever had these thoughts, please know that taking your life isn't the answer. You have people in your life that will listen to you and will always be there for you to help you through the bad times. Remember that you are loved and you are good person and that thinking that way isn't the right thing to do. ~ SuperSimmer~

Ducktales Reviews: The Phantom and the Sorceress
Ducktales returns! The Phantom Blot returns to animation after too damn long with a neat backstory, an infnity guantlet and a hate boner for anything magic related. And since Lena is magic related she’s forced to go to her worst enemy and local close up magician Magica De Spell for help. Also Gladstone is here because we missed him and for no other reason. But we missed him so it’s okay. Friendship Is Magic, under the cut.
Woo-ooo! We’re back! Months later and in a new room, with new things to be depressed about because this year is groundhog day and everyone is bill murray, which isn’t as fun as it should be, Ducktales is finally back on screens and in my heart. And my galbladder.. he really likes ducktales. But yeah with the recent cancelation of the venture bros, it’s nice to get it’s spirtual littlte brother back just a few weeks later to help fill the void, and while a comparison to it now I know frank’s a fan and noticed the simlarties between rusty and gyro thanks to a tumblr post, the same post for both things inf act, I might just do that one day. But tha’ts not what your here, for , iv’e had to rewrite this intro enough times, Pitter Patter, let’s get at er.
This episodes opens with Scrooge sitting down for his morning tea when the kids pop out of the tv and hte bored way he figures it out is really hilarious. David Tennat is really good at selling just how Scrooge has both seen it all and has the deductive skills of Barbra Gordon. What eveyrone syaing “Of batman” gets old after a while and she’s just as smart as he is, especially as oracle. Point is it’s a good bit. As he correclty guesses the kids were playing Legends of Nerverquest or whatever that game Huey and Della played last season is called, one of them wished it was real, presumibly Dewey, and Lena’s magic accidently made it happen. And since it’s her first spotlight episode of the season, and possibly only one since this season is kind of packed, it’s time to talk about Lena! Admitely I PLANNED to do at least her first episode and her two season 2 episodes before this, but life got in the way so here we are. Lena.. is easily one of my faviortes, the number of weblena chats have made that clear. She’sd got a compelling arc, the show tackles abuse well in her narrative, and she and webby have really sweet chemstiry. Plus she brought us Violet and i’ll always be greatful for that and she’s voiced by Kimiko Glenn in her first major voice acting role so that helps too. SHe’s a great addition to the cast and the canon. Same, as the previous comment made obvious, goes for Violet, and the three togther have a great dynamic and i’ts nice to finally see an episode with JUST the three of them post “Friendship Hates Magic.”.
But yeah Lena’s magic’s been going haywire and I do feel the setups abit rushed.. hilarious but rushed. While Night on Kilmotor hill did establish her magic can run wild, it was also vauge if it was because of her, or it was because magica was messing with her head. IT’s still a plausable setup since we haven’t really SEEN her use her magic or have any intrest and doing so and she’s only done so either while working for magica, to undo something magica did, or to give her sister a mace so she could literally go midevil on some alien ass, it just feels a bit abrubt. And while Night on Kilmotor hill also set up a problem we hadn’t seen on screen, it felt like it gave us more time to ease into it and Lena’s issues, and made it clear SOMETHING was up instead of just telling us that. The rest of hte episode is still good i’ve just seen the show be way better at setup than this.
But yeah Lena’s magic keeps runing their fun and she feels bad about it, while Scrooge ends up putting his foot and spats in his mouth by voicing his hatred of magic, with all his nephews giving him a “Grandpa no look” and Webby glaring at him.. and whiel I didn’t realize it while watching it.. whiel sh’es given him a disaporving look, the equilvent of shooting bambi in the face emtoinally, she’s only been THIS angry with him one other time.. and it was the time he said “Your not family”. Thankfully this time he’s not in defnstive arrogant bastard mode, so he meekly walks it back to exclude her and she shrugs it off: She hates magic too. And really.. it’s not hard to see WHY given that most times it’s enterted her life, it’s nearly got everyone she loves killed, and that the only spellcaster she knows personally is the absuive aunt whose gaslighted her on multiple occasions, most recently to try and renslave her. Thankfully before Webby can make an old man bleed for his insesntivity, Della reveals some magical creature is there and Scrooge, while annoyed it’s more magic, is happy for another adventure and invites everyone along. And I jsut love that he dosen’t even show the slightest hesitation bringing Violet and Lena along. As far as he’s concerned probably their family too, maybe not as much as Webby but their still welcome. I mean granted i’m sure della and donald had an awkard conversation with Ty and Indy over all this to make sure it was cool, but still, it’s a nice gesture on his part and show’s his personality: He really dosen’t care who comes along as long as they can pull their weight and share his love for adventure, their welcome. It’s also nice ot see him and Lena interact since the two really haven’t since the shadow war: Sure he’s been in the same room with her twice, btu they haven’t really spoken. Though my honest guess is they could’ve genuinely meant for Scrooge to adopt her into the family.. but when coming up with Violet found her family adopting her and them becoming sisters to be a better idea and went with that. And to be fair it is, and not just for shipping purposes, I just wish we got some closure on that line, but i’m also aware the show has a LOT of ground to cover each season, so I understand it probably got squeezed out by all the other stuff going on and don’t really sweat it since we got something better anyway, her getting two gay dads and a sister, it just felt worth talking about. And in universe.. I feel he didn’t simply because he didn’t either know she was back or have a chance to, though i’m also damn certain, at least in my own headcanon, he helped those men formally adopt her. I mean he owns most of the city, and they probably also had to make Lena legally exist in the first place since I doubt Magica bothered to put her on any offical records that weren’t signed in blood and written on paper made of avian flesh, which given SCrooge’s experince is probably not the first time he had to get a person into official records who came into being by way of magic or some other weirdness.
Anyways, Lena opts out of the adventure because she’s worried about it going haywire and Webby opts out out of sympathy and while Violet is clearly keen to go, she gladly does so for her sister.. though this just makes Lena feel worse since now her girlfriend and her sister are missing out on stuff because of her, and suggests just going to sleep before she whoopsie daisy magics them to death. The girls end up woken from their sleep however by a bang at the door. It’s Gladstone!
Yup it’s time to talk about another character I haven’t talked about yet. Gladstone is easily one of the show’s best overhauls. See in the comics while Gladstone is just as lucky and lazy.. he’s also just..
Okay i’m amazed it’s taken this long for me to refrence jean ralphio in one of these reviews but i’m glad it was for this. Back on topic, while I know Gladstone in the comics has his fans, and is softend a bit in european comics, but in most stories i’ve read with him he’s an insufferably arrogant dick. Even BEFORE getting his luck, his first apperance, which I own in trade and read earlier this year, has him trying to take Donald’s house and kick him and the nephews out on the street over a drunken wager to take a polar dive, which Donald fials because life hates him and he’s a coward. Thankfully Daisy rushed in and saved the day because she’s great sometimes ,and turned things on him wiht his own drunken crap, but still, it says something when your first apperance is trying to force three ten year olds and your own cousin out into the cold.
He .. did not get any better once his super luck came into play. Instead he just flautned it all the time and tried to constnatly win Daisy over from donald.. which had varying sucess based on how much of a shallow dick she was being that story, and in general was just unplesant. He really only works for me in comic in those aformetioned softer times: when a writer makes his luck ruin his love life or add actual depth instead of him just being the raincloud on donal’ds parade. The original ducktales and the going quackers game are the only places I can think of he showed up otherwise, prototype in the old disney shorts nonwithstanding, and Ducktales Classic made him a nice guy from what i’ve heard. Thankfully frank and crew knew exactly what to do to adapt him perfectly: He still retains some aspects from the comics: Donald and Scrooge still hate him, Donald for Gladstone always winning and always having it easy while Donald.. is donald and thus utterly miserable half the time and on fire the other half, and Scrooge because he’s a lazy asshole who gets whatever he wants with the least effort, which didn’t change. What did change was his attitude. While he still is proud of getting whatever he wants in life with no effort and being “the best at getting something for nothing” he dosen’t lord it over everyone else. Sure he’s proud of it but he dosen’t rub Donald’s nose in how much better off he is on purpose, and genuinely loves his family, something I really coudln’t say about most versions of comic Gladstone. While he’s self serving he’s perfectly happy to share his luck with whoever else: He can always get more money whenever he needs it because of course he will. The other factor helping is , as with this entire reboot, the voice acting, in this case the marvelous Paul F Thompkins of Bojack and so much other stuff fame, who really sells the “Sleazy vegas layabout” vibe this series gives him, updating his old aristocratic asshole vibe to something more fun to watch and really being a treat anytime gladstone comes up. Gladstone singing in season 2 was entirely something Paul Improvised during his first apperance they made sure to use eventually. He’s a delight any time he shows up and a total 180 from his utterly agrviating original version.
As for why he’s here.. said luck. is gone. After being hit by some weird energy, Gladstone suddenly, since he didn’t see it hit him, finds himself living normally: going to a restraunt offers no free meal for being 100th custmoer or anything, his wallet dosen’t magically have 20 dollars in it, and the atm gives him 20 dollars.. which would seem normal except it’s actually usually a sack of rubys. Naturally Gladstone having coasted his entire life on his magical luck, has no idea how to function as a normal human being and is utterly hilarious as he breaks down. Admitely he’s not the biggest part of the plot, he’s mostly here for comic relief and COULD have been eaisly cut.. but he’s so hilarious and seeing him utterly fail at being a normal person and whine about things as simple as walking or going up stairs is just groovy. As for what weird magical bolt took it, Violet being violet figures it out quick: The Phantom Blot! For those unfamiliar, he’s a charcter from the mickey mouse comics, though I know him from one episode of house and mouse that adapted those comics that I need to read more of, a master schemer and old school villian par excellence and Mickey’s greatest foe. I was ecastic to see him come here and in the capable hands of Giancarlo Espisto. While I haven’t watched brekaing bad i’ve heard nothing but good thigns and he does his best with what little he’s given. But here instead of a master schemer he’s an infamous magic theif and is obviously the one who drained gladstone.. and unforutntely for scrooge the boys and presumibly everyone else... we see him in action using his fancy infnity guantlet esque magic draining gauntlet to drain the portal they took. Ruh Roh. It gets worse when he mistakes Lena for magica, and charges after her, though Webby is able to hold him off with the axe she grabbed on the way to the door earlier, and damages his gauntlet. he retreats.. but it’s obvious he’ll be back and both Webby and Violet come to the conclusion Lena needs to grasp her magic in order to survive.. and both have the same unfortunate relization: They only know one person who can do it and Lena, once she realizes what hteir thinking, wnats nothing to do with her, and neither do they. But they have no options: they have to go to magica. So they journey to her house on Dagobah, with Gladstone tagging along because they need a wacky comedic sidekick to help lighten the mood what with the serious, grim hunter wanting to murder a teenage girl inf nront of her tweenage girlfriend and kid sister, and their only resort being going back to her abuser for help. Magica however isn’t all that helpful at first. Being Magica her first move is to make a grab for the Amulet to get her power back, which her running crew thwart quickly but naturally Lena still wants nothing to do with her and Magica just insults her for not using magic and because she’s a terrible person. SHe does however end up changing her tune when she hears the blot’s involved. She whisks them inside while we get a cutaway to FOWL headquarters where blot is working on his guantlet more on him in a minute. We soon get the Blot’s backstory which is actually really inttresting and invovled even if it’s not a lot like who he is in the comcis or house of mouse: A long ass time ago before meddling kids got in her way, Magica took over a small vililage with the threat of destroying it and eveyrone in it outright unless they gave her tributes.. and when those got boring she just did it anyway. Problem was, as happens a lot when evil sorecerers calously destroy hometowns, one of them survivied. It’s even lampshaded by Magica as she points out Blot wasn’t the first. The problem was.. he was persitant. The blot never gave up, coming up with better tech to fight her magic each time and coming back stronger and likely more determined. I like this verson: While he’s not the bwahahah mastermindk, he’s still an utter threat, a force with an unyielding hatred and a burning mission to take out the target of his hate and anything like her. He reminds me a lot of toffee from star vs but if htey actually gave his backstory on screen. A meancing, somehwat quite, or mostly silent in the blot’s case, immortal menace who’s deterimiend to wipe out those who wronged him and anything related to them and has warped from what was once probably a decen tperson into a human engine of destruction with one goal and one goal only. He’s a good enoguh villian for the episode, I just hope if he comes back they give him better lines. his dialouge is really what dosen’t work for me as whiel his backstory and aura of meance work, Giancarlo is given nothing to work with line wise. He dosen’t need to be a chatty cathy or anything, just give him one or too really cool lines. Sometimes tha’ts all you need. Watch how the pros do it.

I do like this verison, I jsut think they could do more, but given the show has a good track record for only getting better with their villians with every use, I have no worries about that and he’s still a cool enough threat. I also wish we got more of fowl or why he’s working with them. just a small scene with one of them was all I asked, because we’ve barely gotten fowl this season. It’s really one of the season’s only real problems so far: 8 episodes in and while FOWL agents have shown up twice, adn one of the episodes did advance that plot by showing off heron and steelbeak, we really haven’t seen any progress on their plans to both take the missing mysteries or kill the Clan McDuck. HOpefully this changes as we go and again, it dosen’t ditract from the episode itself, jsut the season as a whole. Anyways, Lena is still relucntant because Magica is terrible and keeps slipping in how much she wants to take the amulet every five minutes. I love the show and catherine tate’s take on magica: just as hammy and nuts as before but when she does have magic, she’s the utter threat she was before too times ten. But yeah while Lena’s relunctant.. neither of htem really has a choice> Magica needs her amulet secure to get her magic back, and Lena needs to not die. So they relucntantly agree to work together among more hilarous sniping. Cue a training montage set to a hell of an 80′s tune. The show really has a good habit of making good incdental music to use in bits like this. Lena trains, uses gladstone as the training dummy, and it’s funny as it is creative and we even get some karate kids bit and the obvious star wars refrences. Meanwhile the blot approaches ever closer.. We also find out something important from Magica as she chastises Lena for having fun with her friends while training after Lena uses blue magic instead of purple: Turns out much like spellcasters in say owl house or my little pony each caster has a specific color to their magic, a Colur of magic if you will. Magica’s, and lena using hers is purple while the blue magic we’ve seen from her is her own powered by friendship and love. It’s a nice advancement of what we’ve seen so far: We’ve seen her magic powered by webby is stronger than her other stuff, and we’ve seen it come out during times their bond, or in the case of kilmotor hill her bond with everyone, is strongest. We knew something was diffrent with the magics and it’s now given a though and clearly well thought out explination why: Magica’s magic is hers and Lena was just borrowing it.. the blue stuff is hers and hers alone. Magica does try to get her to master it by having one of her friends shoot her.. Webby of course strongly objects so Violet takes it up since it is for study after all and her sister can take a hit. Lena also wonders how she can even do magic without the amulet, but as Magica makes clear, and as I outlined above, the amulet is just help. The blue magic is her. Lena fails to use it though to deflect in time.. and to make matters worse the blot shows up after plopping gladstone down and wants to kill them both. We then get easily the best laugh of the episode.. as Magica tries stage magic and the blot wonders what the hell he’s looknig at. I mean this is his mortal enemy, the monster who killed everyone he’d ever known or loved... pulling out a bunch of colored rags and asking him to pick a card. It’s amazing. Lena attacks from the side and Webby and Violet quickly asist, with Magica joining in to use the rope to bind him and Lena’s magic kicking in, turning the rope into chain and summoning a snake.. but in a show of badassery the blot easily shrugs it off: he absorbs the magic, escapes and knocks them around while Webby asks the snake for help.. can she speak snake? She hopes so.
Then things get dire as The Blot starts absorbing the magic.. and killing lena as she starts to fade away. Magica of course can’t even feign dispaointment in anything but loosing her magic. And that’s also something I really love here: The show makes no attempt to make magica better or turn around because it just isn’t who she is and even if she did after all the abuse she did, Lena would have zero reason to forgive her. It’s nice that they DON’T try redemeing her or shoing a brighter side: she’s a bad person, a worse caregiver and they only came to her because they had no choice.
But as the magic’s absorbed magica does tell her to find the source of the power and we get a great scene: She first thinks of all the abuse magica’s done to her and it’s a harrowing montage to watch. But webby, breaks through that, since that obviouslyf ails and reminds her of where HER magic comes from: Her and webby. and we get an adorable,a nd shiptastic montage as we see more clips from past episodes.. but this time we see their adorable fistbump from “Beagle BOy Birthday Massacre”, their hug from “Jaw$!” and Lena’s return to the world and hug with her lady and future sister from “Friendship hates magic”. IT’s her friends, her sister and the love of her life who are her real source of power, and her magic connects to htem as lena ccccchanges. And I mean entirely, her outfit changes and she gets these.. weird bright blue eyes. Like I like the rest of her outfits, a white and blue attire to show her change with a badass cape, looks like a superhero so naturally I love it.. her eyes just look really off. Like when Milo Muprhy’s law tried to give characters colored irses. Because no one else in ducktales has them it just loosk.. weird.. Otherwise though I like it. We then get a beam struggle, but with adde dhelp from her friends and her new power, Lena eventually beats the blot, as her sheer power overloads the guantlet and sends him running. However in the confusion the amulet was lost.. and Magica gets it back. Lena whollops her easily, pointing out her magic’s purpose is to protect the world from people like her. It’s a nice development too: Lena realizes MAGIC isn’t inherently evil... it’s how it’s used. Star Vs could’ve maybe taken this lesson, but regardless, it’s a nice bit of character development realizing that magic is a part of her IS Her, and she shoudln’t have to give up something in her nature because of her abuser. Magica, while repowered, is force dto lookf or her staff while Lena gladly floats team magic home. Also with the guantlet broken gladstone is back, as a rain of 20 dolalr bills he uses as tissues confims, and the portal returns, and with Lena you know, havin ga whole superhero outfit, glowing blue eyes and her hair streak now blue, they know something clearly happend and the episode just kind of ends. Still a good one. Final Thoughts: This was a good one as I just said. While I had my nitpicks here and there as I also said, Lena’s strong character, and the game performances of Espisito, Thompkins, and Tate really add to our usual trlo, and as I mentioned before it’s nice ot see team magic get their own episode now their a full team. IT’s just a good romp and a good way back. I”ve made my complaints clear but their drowned out by good jokes, good character stuff, and good worldbuilding that makes this an utter thrill and a great one to come back to and i’tll also be intresting to see where Lena goes from here. But wherever she goes she’ll have webby. They can be whot hey are, independent together, if theyt ry. And yes that’s my shiping song for htem and yes I have one.
Quick bit before I go I dind’t get to, Gladstone flirts with magica when she lands in his arms, a little something for the shippers and a nice gesture on frakn’s part. Whle she rejects him and he dumps her in the sludge with a shrug. I mean.. their probably going to bang at some point. Gladstone’s powers mean he’ll likely find her when sh’es super horny and more than willing, and he’ll be like “eh why not boobs”. I mean I thought about this: I figure his powers allow him to find a willing partner, any gender or none at all I see him as pansexual, who happens to probablyb e loaded and diseased free, whenever he happens to be into it who naturallyw orks out perfectly because if he gets money whenever he wants it, why not sex? It’s not even a concious thing as we’ve seen things just work out for him so of course he probably gets laid, and as we see here it’s only if the other person consets. Good for him. Hope to see him again sooner. I want to see more of him and della interacting and see what she thinks of him. Freshe eys andall that.
But yeah this was great to come back to.
