āomg why are you bt shippers acting like we didnāt have queer rep since day one oh em gee yall just care about bucktommyā
firstly the fact that it comes from the same group that accused oliver of queer baiting for years is rich.
other than that iāve said it a hundred times and i say it again, this show has queers in it but does not treat them right!!
god forbid josh be more that maddieās little gay bestie ( the last time he went on a date he got fucking beat up)
henrenās last kiss was apparently in 6.06! remember when karen said something like their marriage doesnāt feel like a marriage but a sisterhood years ago??? their child almost died in front of them but they didnāt even huged!
we are not gonna see michael and david again ( yes bcz of the things that happened in irl but still)
buck is apparently a confused baby bi cuz god forbid if bisexuals know what they want
and tommy is gonna be alone forever (something that is possible the same ending for josh too) cuz gay men will always be alone
so you tell me if only including queer characters like this is really representation or not??

I think some folks MAY have gotten the wrong idea about how I feel about Circe with some of my posts. So, to clear the air...
Homies, I love that fucked up sorceress.
I love how we're never given a reason why she turns people into animals. That's so funny and so awful. And another potion-making magic gal?!?! I love that she's just basically vibing on an island doing whatever she wants. I even love the fact that she scares Odysseus shitless! She's morally gray and that's why she's FUN.
I just sincerely hate when people try to girlboss her or have her be a victim of SA when she never was Looking at you, Miller. Especially when she was actually the one who coerced Odysseus in exchange for his men being transformed back into humans. And even then, while he was clearly afraid of her, (it's in the language of the Odyssey) she likely meant him no harm after a certain point. He just didn't know that.
Why does she need a reason to do awful things? Why can't she just be a goddess who does whatever she wants? That's the reason why I love her!!! She's fucked up!!! :D
I hate what the Telegony did to her as well! >:( You're telling me, this sorceress goddess, who makes potions (!!!) wouldn't have magic contraceptives??? Would WANT CHILDREN?!?! WITH THE PATHETIC WIFEMAN?! No. Fuck no. Eugammon of Cyrene, I have beef with you š¤¬
Anyways!!! Understand all the "#anti circe" I have is simply Anti "Girlboss Circe" or the book. I genuinely think she's neat af as her morally gray, fucked up sorceress self and just get frustrated with...everything :'D
#I have these same feelings with Medea and Medusa and so many others. Penelope too. Let them do something fucked up just to be fucked up#I'm a āgod forbid women do anythingā in the sense of 'she did a fucked up thing. That's why she's fascinating. Don't take her awfulness#away from her!!! please! I wanna study her under a microscope!'š#PLEASE#...I actually kind of don't like the idea of her actually caring about her nymphs :P maybe she āprotects themā but like...#I see her as a āWhy are all of you dancing? Oh. it's a birthday? hm okay. Just make sure your duties are done.ā while not caring#whose birthday it is. She's not really shown to be close to them during the Odyssey and idk just seems in character for her to not give af#save me morally gray circe#<-making that a tag now because...yeah. She absolutely wouldn't save me though.#Mad rambles#shot by odysseus#anti madeline miller#anti circe#<-THE BOOK! I HATE THE BOOK! LET HER BE AWFUL YOU COWARDS#Why do women need to be SA'ed to be strong Miller?! >:(#...Ima say it. The pathetic wifeman is more relatable to me than Hot Snake Monster Lady when it comes to this stuff.š¤#I just sincerely hate the fact that people erase what happened to him you know? It's silly but it means a lot to me.#Also I think she got bored of him immediately and simply let him chill at her place.#She's a goddess. She's got better things to do and she absolutely doesn't love him and he absolutely doesn't want her.#I don't have with Eugammon btw. He's dead and I'm exaggerating but I STILL hate the Telegony >:(#tw sa#kind of??? idk#barely mentioned but yeah#Calypso though?? Yeah. I hate her in practically everything except Pirates of the Caribbean because that's not Odyssey Calypso

No bc fuck tim but it really really bothers me how people ignore his growth like he used to be an asshole and Iāll give tim Stans one thing: now heās so so so stale but what I disagree with is that this staleness is bc nobody likes him like itās in fact the exact opposite where everyone likes him so much they dont want to do anything. Even when itās him surface level challenging Bruce itās when everyone else is doing it too; but heās still the backbone of the fam! Etc. and itās so irritating bc him gaining more compassion and empathy even for people he doesnāt fw is so fun to watch and thatās why the captain boomerang thing was so out of character! (Not in a from the author way but in a tim wouldnāt do that and he and Bruce both knew it which is why it went down like it did. Same way dick killing joker was ooc; not in fanon sense but in a he would hate himself forever for this sense) and speaking of that itās such an interesting mirror to Bruce who genuinely believes that everyone can grow vs Timās it doesnāt matter if they grow itās not my decision to make like itās the same but itās not AND WITH CASSā IT DOESNT MATTER IF THEY CHOOSE NOT TO GROW I WONT DO IT! like ugh. And anyways even when people acknowledge it they boil it down to āJanet and Jack taught him that the capitalist pigs that they areā like no. This is who tim was. Tim was the kind of guy whoād blame a dead kid for dying. Thatās ok. Also Janet and Jack? Please reread anything involving them thatās not a fic like Jack had anger issues and they were both aloof at worst like relax.
#the Jack and Janet thing is both an understatement and an exaggeration but I donāt think anyone reads enough to care#some tim stan might get all pissy and be like āno look this is everytime jack yelled at him and boarding schools are abusiveā to which#and its like narratively that means nothing bc the tim you made up to justify the Drake parents you made up by blowing shit out of#proportion is also made up and if all of that was abusive thereād be smth to show for it besides ur homophobic Jack#too girlboss to care but still terrible Janet bc god forbid a woman have a personality from ur fics#anyways thatās also the reason Iām ignoring the council of spiders#well two reasons#first is that was just a moment to make tim look cool and did absolutely nothing for him or his character moving on#like at all#Iād say it fucked with his previous established dislike of killing for his own reasons#and while that COULD be interesting itās not bc they didnāt do shit with it#and fanon doesnāt do fun shit with it either#nothing about how tim in his most manic state did shit he doesnāt want to remember shit heād HATE other ppl for#just āāremember what I did to ur base Raās? mess with me again and see what I do next š¼ā#like ok can you be real and genuine?#anyways I think#AND NOT IN A HATER WAY#Tim would benefit from being humbled#like genuinely I detest the world canāt move without tim running it but the idea that tim thinks that way is so good to me#and#I think next step being him realizing thatās not true would be a BIG push for his character#bc like I said tim Stans are right in the fact that heās stale as hell rn#but thatās bc thereās nothing to say bc thereās nowhere to go! yāall want a tim action story where he shows off how badass he is reread#the Bruce quest and maybe itļæ½ļæ½ll remind you heās not ceo lmao but anyways thereās nothing internal to say about him atp bc nobody wants to#say anything thatās not propping him up. same with Bruce! Gotham war was such a copout but itās like ppl are saying heās stale and itās bc#god forbid he makes a lasting fumble. and Iām not under the illusion this is new Iām just saying itās weird that fandoms not clocking it#anywayyys I really do like thinking about the No killing rule and how different it manifests for each perosn#like the way each distinct difference tells u so much about them#UGH ONLY SLIGHTLY RELATED BUT DUUUUUKE BEING LIKE IDGAF ABOUT GUNS LIKE UR SO REAAAL#anyways enough tim positivity for today FUCK THAT NIGGA!

i hope the people that respond to my nervousness saying ādonāt be nervousā know that a certain ronald radke said that to me like seven years ago and good lord if there is one way to instantly rip a 14 year old out of their falling in reverse phase it would be that anyway if you tell me to just not be nervous you are i automatically associate you with that silly, silly man so perhaps do not
#i say. admittedly Nervous#(seriously though)#(god FORBID i wanted to ask their drummer who promptly left the band about his hair dye preferences)#i had a pressing PRESSING question for ryan but okay thank you ronnie#it is very cool to put your hand on peoples shoulders and like. pull them. that#that is definitely how you make anxious teenagers not be nervous thank you#that was truly the maybe month or so before my egg cracked lmao i was having a rough one already#and then standing for like 3 hours in the boston cold freezing my limbs off#because my best friend at the time had vip tickets to her favorite band and was so excited and invited me#guh i met. a lot of bands that since got a LOT coming out about them#I enjoyed dangerkids but 1) they were not a meet and greet thing they were opening#and 2) even then idk idk their singer produced that fir album so idk idk idk#anyway yes mister radke this shoulder will forever have the lingering feeling of Your Stupid Fucking Hand Grabbing It Very Very Cool#but sure sure be vewy upset about trans people and anyone who says your music is bad#(you make so many songs about how you dont care)#(and the other songs you make are the embodiment of very real abuse tactics)#(you cant be twying to be bettew if you are genuinely not trying)#(you know its bad when even the right wing grifters wont let you be part of their club)#(even blair white is probably holding you at a very far arms length)#(try that. arms length. do not grab kids shoulders thank you)

The whiplash online and offline right now is like nothing i've ever experienced. like with ukraine i saw consistent support and lack of both online and offline, but with palestine its like. online there's energy and emotion at the same levels as during the BLM protests but away from the computer it's like it doesn't even exist. I live in a smallish college town but we have more arab immigrants here than anywhere else in 300 miles and there's still just nothing, not a word spoken. in my choir we learned a Ukranian piece last minute to support our ukranian accompanist but this year our choir director like fucking implied that we don't have to worry that we're making a political statement by singing our syrian piece. I just do not understand the disconnect in compassion right now
#the performative american support of isreal is soul rotting beyond belief#the nearest protest was an hour away and 2 weeks ago in another city#its just baffling i haven't heard a whisper of any public support for palestine on campus#I've thought about reaching out to the local mosque but i don't even know if there are any palestinian atendees?#and like we don't have any palestinian campus orgs#we have like an arab one but i don't know if it would be appropriate for me to reach out to them#or god forbid if i did and it turned out we had some canary mission type org in town#this is the most helpless i've ever felt politically#donations do nothing because isreal wont let anything in#biden doubles down with every protest#isreal is set on annihilating gaza#and the only action palestinians say is doing something is fucking tweeting#but everything just keeps getting worse#so many people are trying so hard to help but the only people who can actually put a stop to anything don't care#and so all everyone else has is sentiment

oh i'm sorry, i didn't realize we were taking moral standing points from the asura now. y'know. the race that full-hog experimented and ripped apart sylvari even after knowing they were wholly sapient beings (and it wasn't even inquest! it was regular fucking asura! the arcane council most definitely okayed those experiments! never mind the fact that the council TO THIS DAY fucking openly allows inquest to do as they please so long as they don't cause trouble in rata sum) and have done little to nothing to apologize for that fact to their sylvari allies.
but no, you're right, the humans are the worst race in tyria just by way of existing and trying to find a place for themselves. how could i have ever thought different?
#from beyond the grave#hi i'm going to go fucking feral#I'M NOT EVEN A HUGE HUMAN FAN. i have them and i love the ones i do have! but i greatly prefer sylvari as my playable race.#what the FUCK are you talking about#ādid everything they can to push other people off their landā are you talking about pushing charr out???? cus uh.#i don't know how to tell you this but the charr STOLE THAT LAND IN THE FIRST PLACE EVEN BEFORE HUMANS#dont even get me started on their HoT take (the One Expansion that anet gave sylvari before forgetting they exist)#and the icebrood one (the charr should have never been the fucking main focus of the goddamn NORN PLOT ANYWAYS)#the āhuman interferenceā in icebrood was literally a fucking BLIP amongst the bullshit of the charr getting involved#don't even fucking talk to me about āhumans being lynchpinsā for icebrood. it should have had NOTHING but NORN LORE.#it was the NORN PLOT. jormag had always been NORN STORY AND PLOT.#ābuhbuhbuh humansā I DON'T GIVE A SHIT. THE CHARR SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THERE EITHER#it's extremely telling that you don't care that the charr shouldn't have been there either#and only focused on the .0000000000003 seconds that kas helped in anything related to the plot#while also framing crecia and rytlock's relationship problems throughout as āhuman-lookingā squabbling#god forbid rytlock get some character development where he WANTS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for his kid#(even tho it should've happened in a charr-centric story thread and NOT THE FUCKING NORN ONE ANET)#and every charr in the world is like ābut why do you care??ā because charr society is so incredibly FUCKED re: their kids#ābeing attentive to the storyā my fucking ass. just say you fucking hate humans as a race and move the fuck on.#i didn't mean to rant this much in the tags but the more i stared at the post the more i felt like biting someone#OH. OH SORRY. i just noticed that#the person was like ālol inquest figured out how to harness elder dragon energy before xunlai <3ā#JUHGTFJHKDFJHGLKFD ??????#okay for one the inquest are a bunch of literal rat bastards who caused a NUCLEAR REACTOR EXPLOSION in metrica#i'm not going to trust a fucking inquest ANYWHERE NEAR ME let alone praise them for āethicalā dragon energy#the āuhm ACKSUALLY S W E A T Yā tone of voice re: canthan tech vs. asuran is asinine and also annoying as fuck#āall of PoF was about humans :(ā IT IS LITERALLY. ABOUT A HUMAN GOD? IT IS *THE* HUMAN XPAC.#IT WAS NOT A SURPRISE FOR IT TO BE HUMAN THEMED? WE KNOW ELONA IS H U M A N S ?#yet again. what the FUCK are you even talking about.#OKAY. jesus christ. i think i'm finally done bitching about this.

I hate that I'm being made responsible for coping with and "forgiving" abusive behavior just to protect myself.
I'm tired of being fucking "understanding". I'm tired of my survival being dependent on how much I'm able to take. I'm tired of being treated like dog shit for no reason.
#''you need to work things out!!!1'' eat shit and die#what really enrages me about all of this is i'm literally always the one that's actually calm and civil and respectful#but im not gonna sit there and do nothing while you're cussing at me and slamming doors and acting like a fucking aggressive toddler#and coming from a GROWN MAN???#especially when they're manipulative enough to cry and get in your face blubbering about how sorry they are#just to throw an absolute fit when you want them to fuck off and leave you alone#even though i didnt even say it with like an attitude or anything lmao#but when that degenerate freak sends me into a meltdown#*I* am the one that has to forgive the piece of shit???#''he had a bad day!'' clearly not bad enough!!#He's literally been the primary source of my problems with my mother#and he's a piece of shit to her too#but god forbid i actually say that lmfao#abuse tw#I might delete this later I just needed to get this off my chest#I fucking hate being disabled I wish I were able to be independent#I wish I didn't need care from other people#I wish I had the luxury of being able to go no contact#I'd have multiple restraining orders against multiple people if that were an option lmfao

oh caving stresses me O U T
like not to be a Vast truther or w/e (except i totally am) but lksjdlfksjdf the cave diving episode of TMA freaked me out soooo bad & ya if i see a video of someone cave diving im like what are you DOINGGGGGG that's the EARTHHHHHHHH what if it BREAKSSSSSSSSSS it's literally so anxiety-inducing. im like not even claustrophobic, i love my little hidey-holes, but i can NOT deal with cave diving, thank u very much
#speculation nation#i have only experienced a few caves and they were big caves. those are okay#the well traveled and very secure caves. miss me with those tiny little passages and GOD FORBID u dive underwater#but back to the TMA reference lskjdfldkjf the Vast is my fav entity and i Love its episodes#im just absolutely enthralled with the idea of things so much bigger than me. up to and including Giant Fucking Monsters#gargantuan creatures that are larger than a mountain. maybe even larger.#there's just something so...................<3 wonderful about that.#yes they could kill me in an instant. i still love them.#also me being scared of heights but still loving being up high. it's hitting the ground im scared of not falling#ft Gravity Rush being my fav game bc the entire concept is falling from many high places but never fearing hitting the ground#if i play a video game and i have the option to climb up high then by GOD im gonna do it. i GOTTA see the view from the top#and even better in games like botw or gravity rush where i can JUMP... and then end up just fine <3#tho in dragon age inquisition there's that one cliff in the uhhh that one stormy place idr what it's called#i remember i used to love just fucking jumping off that cliff. yes it has fall damage no i didnt care#it was never enough fall damage to actually kill me. so of COURSE i jumped from up high#and of course jumping from the tip top of skyhold out to the ground outside. of Course.#what this all means to say is. yes i love the Vast. and yes the Buried is my most feared of the fears. just cant handle it#im ready to become an avatar of the Vast come ON just come and take me already!!!!! i wanna do cool lightning shit lol

so, with the start of the USA leg there's still no updated (or any, to be fair) Terms & Conditions for this "2 regular tickets upgrade" quote-unquote contest on danandphiltour.com, thus they are currently (and have been from September) breaking the US laws regarding lotteries, giveaways and contests. if they are following the same Terms they had in the EU, then they are running a lottery, and it's illegal in every state unless it's run by the state. (+ interesting questions at the bottom)
(lots of thanks to Emma @dnpbeats for the consultation on the US laws and some links)
not to mention that they definitely broke a few laws in the EU countries by not disclosing official Terms & Conditions for everyone to see, with misleading/false advertisement about all regular tickets bought in September participating (in reality, the tickets bought after the winners were selected weren't participating, obviously, but we were never officially told about the time of selection aka a few days before each show, so that's a problem) and whatever happened in Stockholm.
if anyone knows anything about AUS and NZ laws regarding these things, feel free to chime in.
the 2 regular tickets upgrade
i did talk to dnp about it, but then i got blessed during the intermission (i wasn't hounding anyone this time! it was very spontaneous, and it wasn't the merch crew, stop yelling at me), so here's a product of both interactions:
- the upgrade thing was sent out to the venues. they have all the information about the tickets, their holders, and everything;
- the venues select the winners and contact them via email;
- the selection happens a few days before the show (which is fine for the shows after September but very shady for the 1st leg because not everyone participates, basically);
- neither dnp nor their team have any control over this other than the brief they sent to the venues with basic "only general tickets" and etc. only general tickets, so no Silver VIP for sure. it's on the venues to do everything, and sometimes they make strange decisions. the Stockholm situation with the winners picked right before the show wasn't planned. the venue just didn't select anyone beforehand. the crew wasn't happy about it, lol;
- they will try to organise it differently/better for the US/Canada leg, because this was a bit chaotic. like, it worked but not the best.
note 1: i asked to put the terms on the website. not sure if it's gonna happen. i did try my best in the moment to explain why it's important for us to know the terms. and the person i was talking to during the intermission said that quite a few people ask about that ticket upgrade thing, so it would make sense to just put the info somewhere for people to see.
note 2: about the selection timeframe. it is weird, but that's what i was told. the venues live on their own planet, so idk if they actually selected everyone a few days before each show (minus Stockholm) or waited a bit more. in the USA and further the plan is probably gonna be to stick to this timeframe. it's not a bad one, just doesn't suit the 1st leg since we could buy tickets on the days of the shows.
if i remember anything else about this, i'll update the post
#not even trying to cover my ass this time. another thing. i was told (not by dnp) that they are selecting..#..only within the cheapest tickets instead of all regular tickets. and that was a conscious decision.#and this falls under at least false advertisement if not just fraud. but we never saw the Terms did we? :)) write it there and be free.#it is THAT easy.#and if you're told there's a law in the US that requires you to update and put T&C on the website be my fucking guest to do that please#especially since you were thinking of doing it anyway because people were keep asking. what has changed in 2 weeks?#you forgot because no one is asking during the break?? jfc why is this organised like it's run by teenagers. even ii had T&C for this!#god forbid people change teams and it's no thoughts head empty again. ugh#whose job is it to check the laws? dnp don't have a lawyer with them i bet. but the tour management? dnp's managers?#the venues that agree to this bullshit with 0 background check? hello?#what are these people getting paid for literally?#+ advertisement laws are almost the same everywhere when it comes to promotion. and it's strict as fuck.#you can't just say things that are not true just to sell a few more tickets. you have to follow your words. customers are protected by law.#and each of us is a customer at least once in their life. so please be for real.#my rant is over.#ti tickets#ti.usa#god forbid anyone has a job in advertisement. your life is ruined forever with this information that no one cares about until they get sued

atsumu who goes above and beyond to impress you, his crush and classmate of four years, in all definitions of āimpress.ā
honestly how the fuck isn't it obvious to you by now, he might as well be walking around with āi like y/nā tattooed on his forehead.
you mention you like guys that can cook once and holy fuck atsumu who still doesn't know how to use the microwave without quite literally burning the food, who's never chopped onions before without ending up with enough cuts to bandage his whole handā that atsumu practices for weeks and stays up till 2 am to prepare for the lunch he'll make for himself, because osamu said said no and then because you bring homemade lunch to stay and eat in class with your friendsā he'll casually just plop down on the seat next to you, his friends will then very obviously willingly talk loudly about his lunch and he'll just throw in a, āyeah, made it maself, 'm a solid chef, who do ya think taught 'samu?ā
okay if that didn't get your attention, no worries, what are his friends there for?
if atsumu gets lucky in a day and catches you chatting away with your friends in the hallway, then he instructs his friends to walk past you, hover in the corner, just within your earshotā ā'kay, so when we pass her by, ya gotta speak ma name real loud, loud enough so she can hear it, but don't annoy herā
and so for the time you stand there, trying to hold a conversation with your friends, all your mind can really focus on is the, āatsumu was so fucking good in practice today, if we're gonna win, then it'll be all himā
and then you hear the subject of the conversation speak, ānah, we're a team, every time we win, it's all thanks ta you guys,ā because you also mentioned you like modest, humble guys.
god forbid the days you're absent in class.
atsumu who's sulking all day, doesn't know what the fuck is going on in classes, he's half in and half not in every conversation, even his passes are sloppy and weak. to the point osamu and suna are concerned, well, in their own ways, āare ya constipated or something, yer missinā your spikes and yer passes as clumsy,ā osamu says off-handedly.
āi heard y/n didn't come today, i think her friends said she's sick.ā suna chips in, and atsumu shrinks in his spot like a grumpy cat.
āi already know that, wouldn't have come today if i knew she wasn't cominā.ā
āyou'd miss practice then.ā
ādon't care, don't talk to me, don't wanna do anything, what's the point.ā
ādown fucking bad,ā suna muses, and atsumu glares at him.
atsumu's day is ruined and his disappointment is immeasurable. why did you get sick? how could you get sick? now he's worried and half of himself and his passes are shit and god, he wants to see you. he feels like he could die.
then when you finally show up the next day after what felt like eternity to atsumu, you find on your desk a pile of snacks with a little noteā banana milk, everyone knows it's your favourite, the bar of chocolate they only sell down the convenience store near the school, the glazed donuts that you're always eating in class, and a lot of bubblegums that only one person in class knows you likeā atsumu's handwriting is rushed and barely comprehensive but you know it by heart because he doesn't know you saw him slip the note you found in your locker this morning, and countless other morningsā
āi hope you smile because of thisā
atsumu as a secret admirer is... not so secret because he's still unaware that you see him every morning, and let him giggle to himself as he slips the notes and the strips of bubblegums in your lockerā you don't even like that flavor.
but he gave them, so you think they might just be your favourite.
then again, maybe atsumu doesn't want to be a secret admirer.
atsumu has a crush on you and you know thatā he's very obvious. but he's also very dense and doesn't realise that everyone besides him can see you like him too. he doesn't know the only reason you bring homemade lunch is because he had started to eat lunch in class with his friends. you stand in the hallways with your friends pretending to talk so that when atsumu's walking past you, his friends will practically yell his name and you'll see him blushing shyly. he still doesn't know you come to his every match, cheering for him and scream with joy at every one of his scores.
atsumu makes it obvious he has a crush on you but is stupidly dense that you reciprocate all the same :'))))

"wrio isn't a cop hes a king"
Can someone with brains please please PLEASE talk about the disgusting portrayal of cops, crime, court proceedings, justice system and prison incarceration in genshin impact's fontaine update because I cannot SIT HERE and see people completely destroy their brain cells just so they could play a mediocre game and make some fictional men fuck in their mind
I'm deadass surprised there isn't more people talking about it??? I'm honestly so ??? It's literally presenting prison labour as a good thing. Wriothesley, the prison administrator, got rich off of making his inmates build police robots for the state AND HE'S PRAISED FOR IT. AND THEY'RE PAID IN COUPONS THAT CAN ONLY BE USED IN JAIL. HE WAS REWARDED FOR IT WITH HIS DUKE STATUS.
The fact that the fucking MC's mascot was like "oh the prisoners get one free meal a day? you're making life too good down here what if no one wants to leave :(" what in the bullshit. What in the. There's also a fighting ring in the prison, by the way, and you can bet on it with your coupons you just can't bet on both fighters.
The. This is a scene people think is hot. "But that's a bad guy!" THAT'S HOW THE NARRATIVE IS WRITTEN. THEY ARE ALWAYS THE BAD GUY IN FICTION. THAT'S HOW COPAGANDA WORKS, they make you think people in power can just beat the shit outta anyone and of course the person deserves it because they are clearly always the bad guys! And the people in power are always right! This is sarcasm btw.
Neuvillette and the magic judgement machine are literally seen as undeniable justice ordained by magic and NO ONE KNOWS HOW IT WORKS. NEUVILLETTE HIMSELF HAS NO CLUE WHAT HE'S DOING HE'S ACTIVELY FIGURING SHIT OUT AS WE SPEAK. And yet it's what sends people to The Worst Most Dangerous Super Scary Prison Ever Where There's No Laws [but 1 meal a day's great /s].
"But he feels bad!" Genshin has repeatedly chosen to highlight the pains and troubles of the oppressors [Eula] [Ei/Shogun] and there's literally never any repercussions for them aside from when they portray The Haterz clearly as villains or they turn it around and say "Well it was a misunderstanding all along! No one's to blame here!"
I'm not smart enough to go into details I'm just saying. This. needs to be talked about. I'm not telling you to stop the game bc Hyperfixations not really smth that can be controlled or whatever I get It I Got Back into the game when the first trailer dropped I drew neuvillette fanart and then everything just went downhill since then and I'm like why the fuck did I expect anything better than racist, pro cop dogshit from Mihoyo It needs to be talked about ESPECIALLY by people who still cares about it to critically. assess what the fuck you are absorbing because this shit isn't okay. This is literally paw patrol for weebs they just didn't call anyone a "cop"
PLEASE. TALK ABOUT IT.
#genshin impact#wriothesley#neuvillette#the fact that he parades around in handcuffs aside#scratching my head. erm. either way. guillotine#the only goal of this post is to get people thinking about it. i know genshin fans have no brains tho#like i said.#paw patrol for weebs#if ur a wrio fan getting hot flashes or whatever please do realize he's done the most dirty through the writing. because he was convicted.#as a child. and treated horrifically in prison. but because genshin don't actually want to make commentary on anything.#he's given no real development or complexity in the most Traumatic aspect of his history.#like i said. unfortunately I had my own interpretations of wriolette and especially wriothesley. it's bc when I see something bad i start t#fix them in my head and then i get attached to the superior version that i made up. but like if you don't see a problem#with the fact that 1) wriothesley was originally gonna be the darkest beige in fontaine. and hes the exconvict who#ends up being the warden. the narrative being written isnt a good one. his 'growth' isnt a good one. he was an abused and neglected child#he didn't need 'oh hes a convict but because of his exceptional skills and good perspective he's redeemed himself!' he needed fucking#social services and therapy. Do they even have education in the meropide. he was arrested as a child AGAIN LIKE. WHO TAUGHT HIM ECONOMICS.#even for a character people care about they'd rather suck genshin's dick than think more than a second about what's being spoonfed to them#'it wasn't shown as a good thing for him!' but it's writing a narrative that he 'succeeded' because he works hard and was smart about it n#because he wasn't angry and bitter about his position. because he never blamed or questioned the very system that failed him#these very same narrative are pitched against ex convicts. that they are only respectable if they don't complain and just Be Better despite#being given no support no education no capacity for growth. the fact that genshin talks more about wrio boxing his way to the top of the#prison hierarchy than even mention ONCE that he was given therapy or social support. or even give him a representative in court. no this ki#just showed up and knew he was going to jail the moment he woke up in the hospital bed. LIKE HOW ISNT HE PISSED. DOES HE THINK THAT WAS OKA#those affected by the actions of their oppressors in genshin are literally#never allowed to show anger or resentment and everyone who does are antagonist NPCs or brushed off as 'they misunderstood' like there's a#narrative being written here is that victims are only valid when they're 1) exceptional 2) not angry 3) has the inner peace of a fking sain#and it's always THEIR SOLE responsibility to get their lives figured out god forbid they show symptoms that bugs other people or complain#' if prison standard of living was better crime rates would increase!' guess who also says this irl about prison reform.#anyways. i dont really know that much abt prison reform and abolition but i know enough to tell this is bullshit. hence people with more br

logan howlett x f!reader / inbox
there is just something about logan being a gentleman.
sure he's the definition of rough around the edges and his patience is very thin with most people, but i just know that when he found his woman, he'd be the definition of chivalrous. he's old school: opening the door for you, giving you his jacket when there's even a slight breeze... and he won't mention any of it. he'll do it all wordlessly as if its second nature. and if you do point it out to him he'll just make a snarky comment in return or say nothing, instead wrapping his arm around you and pulling you close to his side because what is there to say? of course he takes care of you. he considers himself damn lucky to be the one to do so.
if some guy was rude to you, or god forbid, hit on you? he'd be on them in seconds, grabbing their shirt and asking them if that's how they think they should be treating a lady. (it's a rhetorical question and a warning. if they give the wrong answer? lets say you'll be cleaning blood off his shirt that night).
on nights where he drives the two of you home, he'll be constantly glancing at the passenger seat, rubbing circles onto your thighs. and if some asshole ran a red, forcing logan to slam on his breaks, his first instinct would be to fling his arm over you, holding you back against the seat. when you wake up from the commotion he'd just run his thumb against your temple and tell you in a hushed voice that "it was nothing, sweetheart. go back to sleep."
if someone on the team brought you up in a negative manner when you weren't there (rare, it would probably just be scott trying to get a rise out of logan) he'd turn red: "don't you talk about her" and "keep her name out of your goddamn mouth". because who the fuck thinks they can talk about his girl??
he's not big on PDA but that doesn't mean he's not touchy. anytime you'd walk up the stairs he'd let you use his arm as your own personal railing. before he left for work in the morning, no matter how late he was, he'd make sure to kiss you on the forehead before he left. and if he had a job where he'd have to wake up at the crack of dawn? he'd make sure to get out of bed as quietly as ever and if you so much as stirred, he'd brush your hair back with a "shhh" and a kiss before he got ready for his long day. but it would be okay because he could get through anything knowing he'd be coming home to you at the end of the day.
anyway as rough as logan can be, he's obsessed with his partner and wants to do nothing more than take care of them. and that my friends makes logan the ultimate gentleman.
a/n: just a little blurb because i am obsessed with this idea. my inbox is open if anyone wants to share more thoughts on logan cause ahhh!!
