What Donna says ≠ what the doctor is
Please, i’m seeing more and more posts criticising the inconsistencies with the doctor's gender and it's not inconsistent. Donna's perception of the doctor is consistent, and the doctor perception of himself is also consistent. Those 2 things just don't match. And we’ve got 2 more episodes with them so it most likely will be brought up again.
#charlie is rambling#something rtd is really good at is characterisation#his characters don't view the world the same way#that's a big part of his storytelling#go watch his other shows#they're fantastic

dazai making up a whole language with fyodor that no one else can understand is amazing but imagine him using codes that, very objectively speaking, you could crack, it's just that no normal person would ever make the insane leaps in logic that it requires. except for someone familiar with dazai's weird thinking patterns, that is.
i just love the idea of dazai's unhinged antics being dialed up to an eleven when he was in the port mafia, and oda being the only one who simply wouldn't bat an eye at it but chuuya was the only one who would actually get it.
like imagine ango at the end of the jailbreak, his boss saying he should allow himself to sigh and lean back and maybe indulge himself, pat him on the shoulder, tell him what he pulled off reading heart rates wasn't easy and he should be proud for being able to keep up with such a plan
but ango i-drank-with-teenage-dazai-and-also-had-the-records-for-every-soukoku-mission sakaguchi can only remember the time dazai was like using greek sign language through his breathing patterns to communicate from a submarine from beneath the pacific ocean or something, and chuuya could not fathom how no one else could understand him.
and that was the day mori signed off on skk being exclusive partners because every subordinate in the room was crying tears of blood by the time chuuya finished explaining which blood pressure level was warning them about a bomb, which blinking sequence was him conveying the vault password and which series of inhales was just him calling mori a bitch.
(ango also pointedly did not want to think about how smug dazai had looked after the mission when mori confirmed skk would only be each others' partners for efficiency and to maintain everyone else's sanity
or about how when he called chuuya to tell him about dazai's prison break scheme he could only get like 3 out of 276 steps into the plan before chuuya rolled his eyes, said "got it" then hung up and pulled the whole thing off without a hitch.)
#listen soukoku having telepathy that they insist isn't telepathy it's just using common sense#while everyone else sobs in the corner#is a flavour of pm era skk I adore#like yes technically chuuya can in fact explain the play-by-play#process of understanding dazai's codes#it's just that no one else is going to immediately make the same far fetched connections#UGH the latest chapter of chuuya watching dazai flop and roll around on the ground like a fish while he brainstorms#not an ounce of curprise or confusion#like he's seen this a thousand times before#and even spotting his worries and dazai actually openly musing about his ideas and expressing emotions so vividly#they KNOW each other your honor#soukoku#dazai osamu#nakahara chuuya#the sigma show#bsd#my post

A bit tired of people complaining about Sanji's principle of "not hitting women" being misogynistic when it has been clearly stated multiple times that he does not choose it and it's heavily tied to his trauma and admiration for his dad and respect for women and definitely not from seeing women as somehow weaker than him
#like okay i get where you're coming from and i understand that from a simpler perspective it's weird#if meet a guy irl who refuses to fight against women no matter how evil they are for no reason other than being women i'd consider it odd#but.... we have watched sanji's backstory and we have seen him actively feeling bad for not being able to hit female enemies#like what do you not understand#you can say the practice itself is based on misogynistic views too but the reasons why sanji doesn't hit women are more complex than that#a lot of people might disagree with me but like#i'm not saying the act itself is awesome and solemn and correct but you can't go and call sanji a misogynistic character just bc of that#like saying he views women as weaker than him is just. wrong. and i've seen people say it#and yes this behavior adds to his gentleman personality and it's also for the writing to show how polite and nice he is to women#but it's not exaggerated. he genuinely has issues viewing women as equals bc he romanticizes them#and that's bad! he knows that's bad!#let the character grow?????? i swear people can't read 😭#i'm not making any sense i just woke up but yeah#one piece#black leg sanji

CBS Ghosts is my new guilty pleasure so take my new OCs. The Blanchet family were distant French cousins of the Woodstones who visited the house in the early 1900s, only for a violent house robbery to take the life of their youngest daughter, Mercedes, and her loyal self appointed guard dog, Horse. Only 8 years old, it takes some time for Mercedes to understand her fate, and for some time she’d be very distressed that her family seem to be ignoring her. On the bright side, the other ghosts are there to try and make things easier, though the misfit collective have a hard time caring for a child given their circumstances, and conflicting ideas on how best to raise a little girl.
Of all the ghosts, she is closest with Thorfinn. He has a soft spot for the little girl.
#‘why does her dog have an English name’ because he didn’t have one at first he was just dog. and then they died#and thorfinn who had watched this dog take a bullet in attempt to save his owner#took one look at this thing and went “’AHA! Dog strong like horse!’ and that became his name#he’s also a Great Dane#I chose these names for comedic effect due to all the confusion they could cause#Hetty: oh here comes the horse drawn carriage#Mercedes: horse cannot draw a carriage! he does not know how to hold a pen :(#also as the years go by people mistake Mercedes for a car lmao#and bc horse is a Great Dane she continuously mistakes Thor’s anti-dane rants to be about her dog#art#my art#digital art#fanart#doodle#drawing#cbs ghosts#ghosts#thorfinn#thorfinn ghosts#ghosts thorfinn#ghosts oc#cbs ghosts oc#she could also work for bbc ghosts but I haven’t finished that show yet#and honestly it’s not reaaaallyyy my sense of humour#there’s a lot I like more than cbs don’t get me wrong but in general I find shows where the humour comes from watching everything fall apar#more stressful than entertaining#but I still wanna finish it bc there’s a lot I like#anyways imagine cbs ghosts but in every other scene thorfinn has a child on his hip#oh also Pete becomes very attached to her once he shows up bc dad#OH AND she doesn’t speak much English at first but by the time sam and jay show up she’s actually pretty fluent

Logan but erik is also there
i need more fics that have this concept, i’ve read nearly all the ones i’ve found with this but i’m greedy so i require more
caliban just having to deal with three old ass mutants
since erik’s in his nineties i’m giving him a walker
and you know what HEARING LOSS
“Erik can you pass the salt?”
“WHAT??”
“the salt, Erik”
“WHAT??????”
he refuses to using hearing aids for some reason
him and charles sleep together but sometimes charles forgets who he is and freaks out about the stranger in his bed
erik has a spare bed in the ‘house’ when that happens
once laura comes along and they escape in the limo charles keeps going like “this reminds me of October 1962” the fact he even remembers that is crazy
when they’re in the hotel, laura shows erik her xmen comics while they watch movies until of course when the humans break in and charles has a seizure 🙁
i feel like erik would be the kind of old guy to go “back in my day!”
grandpa magneto naps
when they meet that family charles references erik as his husband
i cant tell whether i want this to be a fix-it or not
fuck it lets go down the angst path
x-24 still manages to kill charles and temporarily kidnap laura, magneto got his ass beat ☹️
beach divorce reference, erik cradling charles in his arms
they bury charles
erik refuses to leave the grave so logan and laura keep going
and that would be probably the last we see of erik
i’m gonna say he does die, maybe of old age he deserves a natural death like that
lets say someone sees an unconscious old man near a fresh grave and takes him to that hospital laura took logan where erik maybe passes in his sleep
boom kinda sad ending
and of course Logan ending for logan and laura
just imagine erik is also there or something ^^
#i wanna think of more silly old man antics but i cant run from the sadness of logan#erik watching charles doing drifts in his wheelchair#cherik go to the astral plane together and they look like their younger selves#gonna rewatch logan maybe#i actually lost the original version if this post i had to rewrite the whole thing#i love my brain it can recall what happens in bearly each xmen film#and also other films but thats not the point#erik was present at the westchester incident but he didn’t die because of the helmet#grumpy old men#grandpa magneto where are you#cherik#charles xavier#erik lehnsherr#x men#logan xmen#logan howlett#laura kinney#xmcu#wish does not shut up#if you want a fix-it just imagine logan killed that main villain guy when he first showed up#so they never kidnapped caliban#caliban got to join the roadtrip#thank god they had a limo they can all fit

I keep imagining this one scene- usually its Jason or Tim or Damian, or all the Batboys or the Batfam sitting there with cultists or the league trying to summon the ghost king- but put it as just Dick who is a little surprised that he passed the requirement of having died so he can be used to summon this eldritch being that rules the dead.
And when he's bound, placed in front of a Lazarus pit and everyone is still trying to reach him, the being is summoned- and Danny just lurches through the pit hacking and spitting and cursing because this ectoplasm is nasty, what have you people been doing to it?
And the cultists are expecting Pariah Dark. They demand he takes them to the real ghost king. And Dick just has to watch this being with snow white hair and glowing green eyes start to float up and take this sheen of other to him as he goes "yeah no".
And Dick is maybe a little drugged, and has a concussion, but he feels he has an excuse for what comes out of his mouth.
"Nightwing, come in. What's going on?"
"B, I think I found your next kid. I'm gonna marry him. Even if he climbed out of a Lazarus pit and looks a little spooky."
"-what?!"
#danny phantom#dp x dc#batman#fic ideas#dick grayson#danny fenton#the funny part of this is that i just imagine clockwork in the background watching this and going#ah yes this is going to be funny#danny has no clue and is just concerned about the gotham vigilante they tried to sacrifice#the bat clan just shows up to see a clingy dick grayson wrapped around a glowing being who looks a little panicked#danny is on the phone with his own team just asking how to handle this#tucker and sam: get some danny#danny: get some? ice? meds? what?#valerie in the back: another one falls for his charms and he is unaware how is life fair#jazz with the other three braincells of the group since danny has only the one rn: alright the first step is to check for confusion

Every time I think Sasuke’s clear and obvious homosexual obsession with Naruto might be maybe a little one sided, Naruto will do something absolutely insane like walk into his childhood room after two years, grab his dusty picture of Sasuke, gently brush it off, fingers lingering for a moment over Sasuke’s face, and lovingly whisper “Sasuke…I’m home…”
#n-naruto….on god what the hell is wrong with you#SITTING ON HIS BED HOLDING SASUKES PHOTO AND WHISPERING HIS NAME???#H O W does ANYONE watch this fucking show and now IMMEDIATELY clock these two#I’m at the point where I’m starting to think it’s .. just what the author intended#like….who wrote this. and why#I could easily look it up but my fav explanation is ‘person into shonen who had or had a crush on his childhood best friend’#‘and is still working some things out in regards to it’#anyways#I have a theory that this is why classic anime ‘bro’ types don’t like sasuke#they are unable to reckon with the sheer magnetic force of their extremely obvious love for each other#I think it scares them#DOESNT SCARE ME BITCH#NARITO GO GET HIM BACK FROM ORROCHIMARU SO YOU GUYS CAN KISS ITS IMPORTANT#naruto#sasunaru

Thinking about possessive Chigiri. Anyone would get scarily protective if they lost their dream. He lost his career and his passion over a simple injury. People avoided him because of how closed off he got and he refused to let others get near.
When you saw him again after his injury he didn't look at you once. Only giving you one word answers and nods. You understood how much it destroyed him but it was still hard to see the effects.
But then he started avoiding everybody. Holding himself up in his room and attempting to rot into the earth. Oftentimes his sister would end up calling you in tears because of his refusal to take care of himself.
So it's no wonder you began heading over to their house more to try and help him. It was still Chigiri. The boy that you had found yourself enamored with even before he got crazy good at football.
Albeit, it was not easy taking care of him with his mood swings and injury. Often you and him found yourselves frustrated with each other because of that lack of communication and progress. Regardless, you two worked through it because what was the point of a relationship if you couldn't help each other when you needed each other?
It was around the time he finally started healing, his stitches finally disappearing and finally going from a wheelchair to crutches did you begin seeing that change. How he would follow you everywhere if you were together, always close to you. How he would begin messaging and calling you if you disappeared on him or were talking with someone else (and while this did annoy you, you found it oddly adorable). He even began messaging you at all hours of the day even if he had nothing to say.
You weren't one to reject such affection and took it in stride but you'd be lying if you said it didn't worry you on his sudden switch up. Perhaps it's because he finally has energy to put into his relationship now but that thought only puts a pit in your stomach. Because what if he finds something else? You aren't willing to stay if you were only a replacement for something.
However what you learned right before he went off to Blue Lock was in fact the complete opposite. That only after he got injured did he realize how much he genuinely cared for you. Couldn't stop thinking about you. How he would sit with his phone in his hand wanting to call you even though he could barely move a muscle.
How more often than not he found himself dreaming of you. Wanting you. Waking up in a cold sweat upon realizing you weren't there. How as the days grew longer the more he realized that he needed you next to him always.
His injury most certainly messed him up but it also made him realize many things about himself that he wouldn't give up for the world.
---
"Where are you going?"
You glance back at him, "Groceries, remember? I'm still helping your mom and sister, idiot," You stick your tongue out at him, getting another blanket to put under his leg as he sits on the couch.
His once neutral face turns into a small frown as he sets his head down upon the couch. He sighs, briefly fluttering his eyes and you immediately can tell he's doing it on purpose. Prick.
"Do you need an ice pack?" You chuckle as he crosses his arms and blows a piece of hair out of his face.
He rolls his eyes, "I'm not a baby."
"you're kind of acting like one right now," You raise your eyebrows as he immediately turns to you.
He groans, "You've gotten so much bolder since you've had to take care of me."
You smile, "No, you just never noticed."
He opens his mouth to say something but quickly shuts it again. His brows furrow and his fists tighten.
"Sorry," you smile, "Anyways, do you want an ice pack?"
"No, I want you," He says lowly, almost coming out as a growl.
You blink, "I'm right here, aren't I?"
He extends his arms, "How much clearer do I have to get, idiot?"
You let out a little chortle as you set down the blanket, walking over to him as he quickly goes to knock you down over him.
You squeak as you fall atop of him, his arms going to wrap around you like a vice as his head goes into your neck and nuzzles.
"Are you trying to hurt your knee again," you say incredulously, "Don't knock me over like that," You laugh as you thread your fingers through his hair. It's softer than you last remember.
He hums into your neck as his hold tightens around you. You slowly relax into his hold as you realize he doesn't plan on releasing you anytime soon.
"You okay?" You ask quietly, your voice barely above a whisper as your breath brushes against his ear. You feel him shiver against you and it makes your heart swell.
"Yeah," he glances up at you with a heavy expression and your face flushes.
This idiot.

Something something about Bucks ‘boy crush on Eddie’ meaning he’s ready to move past Abby and his ‘oh’ moment on Eddies couch meaning he’s ready to move past Tommy and how both of them are connected to Eddie.
Its the parallel of those moments - that Buck is talking about Eddie being a really great dad in the first one and then doing something to help Eddie be a great dad and in the second, Eddie choosing to go to El Paso to be present in Christophers life - so he is still a Dad and Buck doing something to Help Eddie achieve that goal.
There is something about how both have conversations with Maddie connected to them about crushes or special people and are both about Eddie being a parent and about Buck facilitating Eddies parentalness that connects much more than the accidental coming out to Maddie scene does - that scene is more isolated where as both the crush scene and the new one sit in a sequence of paralleling events
- in S2 - Abby has left - Eddie arrives - Buck meets Chris - finds out Eddie needs help - talks to Maddie who talks about his crush and plants the seed about Carla - Buck gets Eddie over under the guise of helping Maddie move and introduces him to some one especially - Carla.
- In s8 - Tommy leaves - Buck goes to Eddies - Buck talks to Maddie who talks about the universe bringing him a special someone - Jee is paralleled with Carla as a special someone - Buck essentially gets over Tommy by discovering that Eddie is going to be moving and helps him with his appointment with the realtor.
Something something about the concept of tommy being paralleled with Abby, about Abby telling Buck he got her half way to who she was supposed to be (or whatever the line is) by opening the door to the world outside of her mom and it leading her to travel and find her person but how it also got Buck half way to who he is by showing him what a ‘grown up’ relationship looked like - and the idea of stepping in with someone. How that parallels with Tommy getting Buck half way to who he is supposed to be by opening the door to his bisexuality showing him that aspect of himself. But also how Tommy is alt Buck and also alt Abby and how Eddie is Sam - who was in a different state to California and how Eddie is going to end up in a different state and how it feels like Buck growing is about him becoming that alt version of himself and how buck is on his journey to find himself in the same way Abby was - only without the physical travel to Europe - but how Europe was a metaphor for broadened horizons and working through issues so Buck broadening his horizons and working through his issues is him kinda reverting to Buck 1.0 and sleeping around (eat pray love) as he figures out his abandonment issues and then goes after what he wants. How Abby went to stay with her brother - with her family when she got back and that is where she met Sam - and Buck going to El Paso - to his family is leading him to Eddie (which is why there is a bit of me that thinks he will go to El Paso and have his actual ‘OH’ moment there)
#there is something about the Abby connection being a key thing that the show is really playing into as they set up Bucks spiral#about how she is the first romantic partner to abandon him and how it sets up so much of the clinging we are shown on the show#Buck doesn’t cling to his childhood etc - he runs away from that#he only starts clinging when its a romantic relationship and then we watch it filter into other aspects of his life such as his job etc#and there is something about Buck thinking what he learnt from the Abby abandonment is to let the things you love go - and if they come back#then they are meant to be - and how when people have come back to him (Taylor!) he has clung to the relationship#something about how we’ve see the eat and pray since Tommy left Buck - now we’re gonna be heading into the love part#so Buck gonna go out and Fuck!!!#911 abc#evan buckley#eddie diaz#buddie#abby clark#anti tommy kinard#anti bucktommy

there is a difference between being born to a throne, maliciously vying for a throne, stealing a throne, and having a throne thrust upon you when you are already in the midst of an identity crisis. And I fear Loki's place in the line of succession has people unable to differentiate between any of these
#you can't really argue he planned the extent of Thor's downfall#that was all Odin#Loki didn't force Thor to invade Jotunheim he isn't even the one who gave Thor the idea -- Thor did that all on his own!#that he was doing waswasa @ thor didn't help but wasn't really crime worthy on its own#Thor himself took time convincing the other warriors to be okay with the trip despite the treason and danger involved#like. what. Thor can't differentiate good advice from bad and is emotionally volatile and reckless and that's Loki's fault?#THOR was the one who got them past Heimdall too#the entire ordeal inadvertently showed off the favouritism Thor was receiving in comparison to Loki#even though Loki was the one supposedly so easily influencing Thor to such an extent#call Thor a puppet the way he--wait. no. that sounds weird. uhhhhh#you get the point#people will claim Loki was all up in there rearranging Thor's mental processes to cause his downfall#when really it was Loki doing the bare minimum instigation and watching things only devolve from there#because Thor WAS reckless and immature ?? and he WAS quick to anger and enjoyed exerting his power with violence ??#Loki didn't STEAL THE THRONE FROM THOR he literally just is implied to undermine the coronation#that's not even confirmed but we assume it's true that he let the frost giants in near the casket etc.#Loki has his own actual crimes that he did against Thor and hugging his bro's arm and saying 'you're soooooo strong and correct' was not on#even if you manage to argue Loki was cheering Thor on for the invasion (he wasn't) it was clearly to dob Thor in with Odin#which he did when he had some guard inform Odin#that Odin's chosen punishment was for Thor's disobedience aside stop blaming Loki for the damage ODIN inflicted on him#focus on Loki making up lies to Thor about how Odin died instead like at least Loki DID SOMETHING for that#you can even ascribe as evil a motive as you want there bc Loki was slipping fr#twirling his hair and telling Thor he's smarter about the realm's safety than the king was on the normal scale#you want to talk morals go look at how eager Thor was to invade mass destroy and massacre in the other realm#and expected Odin to 'finish them off! together!' bc he was power high on whatever bloodlust pheromones battle apparently imitates for him#sigh. this is why you can't have nice things Thor. no Loki you're barely any better. sit down. have a cookie.

Voice actors are NOT the same as actors.
It takes a specific kind of skill-set and training to be able to warp and meld the voice. It takes a certain kind of talent and dedication to hone that talent into the ability to meld the voice and invoke emotion with one's voice alone. Actors are used to using their voice secondarily to their body language and their facial expressions. It's all mirrored back on camera. They do have nuance. But it's a different kind of nuance and a different kind of training to produce that nuance.
Voice actors might get their likeness transposed on their character's design, and maybe their mannerisms might seep into the character's animation. But when it's all said and done: their presence is in their voice. They are bringing a character to life, showing that emotion in their voice, trying to keep a specific accent, drawl, pitch, tone in that voice and keep it consistent for their recording sessions.
The voice actor is like a classically trained musician who can play first chair in a competitive, world-renown orchestra. The actor (who fills the voice actor's role) is like a moot who played violin in beginner and intermediate high school orchestra and thinks they can get into Juilliard with that 2-4 years of experience.
This doesn't mean that the HS orchestra moot can't play. They can even be really good at it. Maybe they won competitions and sat first chair. But they are not in the same league as the person who's been training their whole lives and lives and breathes to hone their craft using the instrument and all of the training they've ever acquired to perfect it. They are not meant for the same roles. They are not in the same caliber. You do not hire the HS equivalent when you want to play complex music in a competitive orchestra.
Actors are not the same as voice actors.
And furthermore, actors - especially big name actors - taking the roles of animated characters for big budget films or TV pilots makes no sense anyways when - at least in the case of TV pilots - there's not a point to hiring a big budget actors anyways. That money could be used elsewhere (like paying your animators), and the talent that is brought onto the screen for X character could then be hired on to voice said character no recasting required.
I wouldn't say voice acting as a profession is in danger exactly, but it's certainly being disrespected and overlooked for celebrity clout, and this has ALWAYS been an issue. Shoot, even Robin Williams knew that much - which is why he tried so hard not to be used as a marketing chess piece for Aladdin and got royally pissed off when it happened anyways. People shouldn't go to any movie (but especially not animated films) because "oh famous actor is in it". People should go because it's a good movie and the voice acting is good.
People who honest to god think that voice actors are replaceable because "oh well anyone can voice act" or "I like xyz celebrity so naturally it'll be good" ... Honestly I just wish you'd reassess your priorities because you're missing the point and are part of the problem.
Voice Actors ≠ Actors.
#(i am incredibly passionate about this)#(and seeing celebrity voice actors in what should be a voice actor's role completely burns my buns it doesn't matter WHO it is)#(hemsworth as optimus? someone tell me one good reason why they couldn't get a good v/a to replace mr. cullen properly for the future)#(ben shwartz as sonic? dude literally isn't even a good voice actor OR actor anyways-)#(- A N D jason griffith AND my boy roger craig smith are still RIGHT HERE)#(jason griffith IN PARTICULAR would have pulled back SO many sonic fans that went to watch the film anyways. if not /more/.)#(and on top of that he has the same tonality and energy they tried to force this moshmo to try and emulate anyways so GET THE REAL THING)#(chris pratt as mario? i can at least defend /him/ and say that barring his failure to do a NY accent consistently he wasn't terrible)#(but mario's new voice actor could've been used instead and people would've clearly appreciated that WAY more)#(vanessa hudgens as sunny starscout in mlp g5's pilot movie? literally why. they replace her and hitch's va in the show.)#(don't even get me started on the concept of hiring celebrity singers to do musical theatre roles or not letting musical theatre singers-)#(-dub the celebrity voice actors you just HAD to hire for your film bc you're so worried about not getting enough clout to get ppl in seats#(that you're putting it all in this (1) big name hire bc turns out that you have no faith in your writing ability much less-)#(-animation as a medium.)#(and no before anyone says anything : no this is not me saying that ALL celebrity voice castings are bad.)#(there are some that aren't that bad and others that are actually pretty good.)#(i especially appreciate it when actors are damn well aware they aren't voice actors and try to LEARN from voice coaches-)#(-and/or their va predecessors if applicable.)#(that does not change the fact that the celebrity shouldn't have been hired just because the film wanted to have bragging clout-)#(-oh look at this FAMOUS PERSON we were able to hire — yeah ok. sure wendy. i want to know if this film is quality or not.)#(and 9/10 times the SECOND there is money spent on a non voice actor to voice the main character especially)#(that usually means somewhere along the way animation IS going to get shafted. if not w the animators themselves then in the way of-)#(-the actual animation itself and ESPECIALLY the screenwriting because it's especially been so dogshit lately even before the strike.)#(a celebrity being hired to fill a voice actor's role is such an immediate red flag to me and it is VERY rare that i get to be proven wrong
