[yewphoric]

HI HELLO HEJ HEJ 1, 7, 11, 18, 26, and 35 . . . FOR JENAIS AND RAGNARRRRR

HI HI HI HEJ HALLO!!! >:3 THANK YOU FOR ENABLING ME EEHEHEHHEHEH

are they associated with a certain color? what color do they wear the most?

HEHEHE. Ragnar is associated with orange to me, though he mostly wears blue in the form of his Stalhrim armor! He doesn't have that until he goes to Solstheim, but tbh I think I'm gonna have to mix in some blue to his previous armor designs, methinks hehe FOR JENAIS: Obviously he mostly wears black with red accents, because that's His Robe. Despite that, I associate him with green, and draw him with the color green a lot hehe. Orange is for warmth, fire, and all around like... idk. just Warm. And then the green for Jenais is definitely for envy, necromancy, and even a bit of Hermaeus Mora coding... >:3c

7. favorite animal? why?

Ragnar likes birds, mainly hawks! It really just finds them fascinating to watch, and feels that they guide it in the right direction... Hmmmm... :3c And Jenais likes elk! He's always admired their antlers and grace, even as a child.

11. what do they have in common with you? how are they different? would you get along with them?

OH BOY HEHEHE... we'll start with Ragnar again here. Ragnar has inherited my struggles with knowing myself and identity, as well as unhealthy selflessness. I think we could get along but communication might be kinda hard skjflsdj AS FOR JENAIS... those that know me know that he's a massive projection of a lot of Problems I have/had, especially around the time I developed him, lmao. He's very much gifted kid syndrome/burnout, he's been used as a vessel for me to explore being arospec, and in general he's kinda like if I just flew off the handle, but worse. And no, we would not get along, at least not at first... but I'm not sure I have the patience of a saint that Ragnar has to actually deal with him for long enough for us to actually get along KSDJLKDF

18. their opinion on lying, stealing, and killing?

HAHA WELL... funny I'm answering this today, since Ragnar has taken the reigns and developed itself in a direction I didn't think it would be going. SO LIKE. It's outwardly against lying, but actually lies QUITE a bit. Mainly about itself, its thoughts and feelings and such, as much lying to itself as it is lying to others to keep its appearance up. As for stealing and killing, it will do it if it must, but prefers not to. It generally stays away from stealing, as it never finds a valid reason to steal-- where as killing has become an inevitability in many cases. As for Jenais, well, his answer should be obvious: neither of those things are wrong, and in fact, they're pretty damn fun! >:3

26. how do they move? are they clumsy? light on their feet? do they use mobility aids?

OOH OK so Ragnar is very sure with his movements. He's very graceful, but his movements also hold weight. He's light on his feet but he's very muscular and has a good bit of body fat, so despite the grace it's easy to see that he could pack a hell of a punch if he needed to. He's quite sturdy too, and hardly ever loses balance. Jenais... I like to describe how he walks as almost like stalking, creeping, etc. He's fairly good at being sneaky, but even when not trying to hide, he moves with a strange sort of... I can only really describe it as a predatory gait, I guess?? Like he's ready for anything, always planning something. He's NOT sturdy at all though, and is easily knocked over. He used to be much more clumsy but has grown out of that for the most part. His posture isn't great, either, which adds a bit to his freaky, evil, creepy charm.

35. do they ever return home?

YOU WANTED TO HURT ME WITH THIS ONE. POINTS. I KNOW YOU DID /LH Short answer for both of them: No. Ragnar never had a home, how could it return? Jenais can't find home in the house he grew up in. Nothing is left but ghosts-- and the memories haunt him well enough as it is.

SNOW SNOW ❄️ GO AWAY! COME AGAIN, ANOTHER DAY! 🙆‍♀️🙆‍♂️🧝‍♂️🧝‍♀️🧞‍♂️🧞‍♀️🤺🤹‍♀️🤹‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

So, I+I dunno if anyone noticed all these end of the world type-of meteorological events happening lately or am I just a hypa-armageadiac?

So, one of the happenings I found particularly disturbing was the SNOW-like stuff falling from the sky. It seemed like it was concentrated in the Deep South area or, I apologize, the New South; though it was recorded in farflung (and highly, unlikely to snow. Like. Ever. Noba how the variables were varying) places like Lebanon.

Check out what I mean...

As a Green Peace, useless hippy, a neurotic Rave Safe buddy on the lookout for sharp objects, seizures, dehydration and Black Holes appearing and as a person who suddenly has a little bit of money, I was finding my rather Look-For-The-Bear-Neccessities current viewpoint harsh and I have yet to shake that feeling of sinking disappointment because the End of the World is nigh. Is naai. Is a NAAI-YAAAAH.... *performs.screamsnshoutz.in public.especially in public.actually meant for the public* oh, and *doesn't care*

Think of me as your loser, just-starting-out-in-the-ways-of-the-Lord Ghetto Gospel Train Evangelie and as a former Pretori (few days) visitor, God forbid, resident, not gesluip in The-being-funny-elitist-ways-of-train-dependent-Capetonians.

I mean, we can do a demonic eviction right here, right? In a packed, 3rd class (it's a whole 0.90c cheaper than 1st class. I understand now why Africans hate us.

And we're talking about a church-going, God-fearing, morally fibrous community type. Who fucking hate, I mean HATE, MetroChurch. Grudgingly dubbed.

PART II: THE TAKING OF PELA-RING OPPI METROMALL SE DOOP WINKEL

[aetherspoon]

Now that it is complete, I should share the story of Mlezi with the rest of Tumblr. It is long, thus the cut, plus most people don't like hearing about others' RPG characters. :)

Mlezi (literally 'guardian' or 'tutor' in Swahili, potentially 'babysitter' in similar languages, they/them) is my D&D character. Mechanically, they're a Lawful Good (emphasis on the Good) Warforged Paladin of the Ancients (also known as a Green Knight), but in-game they're a golem. A very, very special golem.

The deity they follow (whose symbology you can see on their shield) is Faun, the god/dess (multi-gender identity, usually she/her to Mlezi) of Nature and Life in this setting, generally referred to as the creator. Mythologically speaking, Faun created the world and all of the life on it. Mlezi refers to Faun as their creator, and it generally goes by unnoticed..

... except Faun is literally Mlezi's creator. As in Mlezi was built and given life by Faun (pre-deification) as a protector of their children and to hopefully save at least some of them from the world ending in flame and light. As a last-ditch effort, Mlezi was sent out from this world to a new one that was given life (by Faun; the myths are true in this case) to try and save as many as possible before the old world went boom. The old world is still visible - as the Sun. When people (or Mlezi themselves) joke about Mlezi being older than dirt, they're right; they predate the dirt by at least a dozen years, if not longer.

Mlezi didn't have much of a personality back then, or really much of anything beyond being a golem - they had their programming, which was to protect the children, some basic other rules § to make sure they don't go berserk, and that's about it. But, the funny thing about children is that they grow up. And some have children of their own. It isn't much of a stretch to say that Mlezi's programming extends to their children as well. And theirs. And theirs.

Protecting children also requires adaptation. Protecting from monsters and existential threats are easy, but what happens if a child is feeling down? Well, cheering them up surely counts as protecting them, right? That just means Mlezi also needs to learn how to do that. And obviously the children should have a good role model; since you can't assume anyone else around can do that, that means Mlezi has to step up to that task, right? Over the generations, Mlezi slowly broke their own programming. After all, it is easy to do - almost all sapient life on the world would count for purposes of that original directive, and 'protection' is such a vague word that could mean anything.

Fast forward several thousand years. Mlezi is generally a myth outside of wherever they set up their orphanage. They take on those that need the most protection and find ways of letting those same children change and thrive in the world. They demonstrate by example whenever possible, find ways of teaching toward each of their children, and watch them grow up and leave. Every so often, they close down their orphanage so they themselves can grow and learn, then open it back up somewhere else some years later. Those that interacted with Mlezi thought they were just a golem driven by long-lost programming, but Mlezi's kids knew better. One even knighted them a few centuries back, having grown up to become a local elven king. He added Mlezi to an order he himself started based on Mlezi's tenets, now known as the Oath of the Ancients. And there is none more ancient than Mlezi. §§

Did I mention that Mlezi has an oven under their tabard that they use for baking cookies? Mlezi has a modified version of the Goodberry spell called Goodcookie, and cooking is the only skill they're actually an expert in. They are also an artist, which they use to help foster the light within themselves (and as a gentle 'haha screw you' to the people who think golems aren't really alive).

--

Now, the other figures depicted are from the campaign.

Mlezi's riding elk is their paladin mount - Bad Day (he/him), a Chaotic Good (emphasis on the Chaotic) Fey Elk who is capable of speaking Draconic. And only Draconic. He likes to cause chaos by deliberately interpreting what Mlezi asks of him in the most chaotic way possible, such as warning people in a temple by running in at full speed and screaming in Draconic incoherently until Bad Day could find a Dragonborn priest. Mind you, Bad Day fully understands multiple other languages (and Mlezi has a near-permanent Speak With Animals anyway), he just chose to do things His Way (aka the player needs to vent steam and add some humor). That's fine though, in the current campaign he's found his love, a celestial / spiritual animal that just so happened to be a 1% random encounter in the area we were traveling in. Said encounter happened twice. We're expecting to hear that Bad Day has some kids of his own any day now.

The kitten is a Mountain Cat from the Humblewood campaign setting, which is what the party is currently going through (albeit heavily modified because we started in a different setting first). One of the very first things in-game that happened was that Mlezi received a Bag of Kitten Holding, which can hold kittens in a pocket dimension. Inside of the bag, they have lots of play area, a gigantic cat tree, unlimited food, and invulnerability / immortality. Whenever brought outside of the bag, they keep that invulnerability. It also bestows its attuned owner the ability to permanently speak with all cats. They can even turn the bag inside-out to create a Swarm of Kittens (think the Box of Kittens depression meme; they've done that twice).

Early on, before we ever started Humblewood stuff, I had asked if this would extend to more than just domestic housecats, and the DM confirmed. Fastforward three IRL years and there are three Mountain Cat kittens inside of the bag of kittens (and I suspect one of the other kittens might be a displacer beast). The kittens also like to sneak out of the bag to play randomly (aka the DM needs to add a bit of levity to a scene), plus the entire party+DM are cat lovers anyway.

I haven't named the mountain kittens yet. I have a fifteen cat backlog for naming them at the moment. >_>

--

Mlezi means a lot to me, as they were my attempt at not just making a character fun and meaningful to play, but also to make a character that would be easy to DM, as my DM was new when we started. They became much more meaningful to me with their way of handling everything - with grace, kindness, and understanding - in contrast to how my world fell apart around me; on top of Covid and the coup attempt in the US, my mother had also recently lost her battle with cancer.

I'm happy to have commissioned art for them and hope to hang it on a wall in my home someday. Thank you, @foldingfittedsheets, for the gorgeous art you did for me!, and long live Radiant Mlezi the Green Knight!

--

§ - Basically, Asimov's three laws for AIs. Which if you blur some things and squint, look an awful lot like the tenets of the Oath of the Ancients. So much so that I designed Mlezi to be a paladin specifically because of that coincidence, with the delightful idea of something artificial representing (and embodying) nature. Throw in some Terry Pratchett in how Golems work and you've got Mlezi.

§§ - I decided on the term "Radiant" for a gender-neutral version of "Sir" or "Dame" for someone who is knighted. I based it on trying to find something like that online and pouring through lists of gender-neutral titles; I think it really fit the character. Others should feel free to use the same title!

@aetherspoon took out a big commission for their DnD character, a stone golem named Mlezi, their riding elk, and baby mountain cat. I'm so excited to be working on this! Here's the sketch, ink, and base color phases. (The base color is just to create layer masks and make it easier to see the details).

[dino--draws]

My hand slipped hella I have Legends Brainrot(tm) 

So have this... banner? Poster? Something moderately terrifying?  No idea but woooooooooooooooooooooo

[strxnged]

im thinking about how in grade 7 my sunday school teacher pointed at a vase and asked all the guys what colour it was and then asked all the girls what colours and then commented on how every single guy just said "blue" or "light blue" wheras the girls all went "sky blue" or "cerulean blue" or sum shit.

well i just said blue. i'm a guy now

[somecutething]

Eating out of the bird feeder 😂😂

[junestay]

today: dude, i feel more like myself. maybe i should keep on with this getting-up-at-5am thing.

tomorrow: well.. one day of sleeping in won't hurt 🤩

[tooquirkytolose]

Realizing the excess of food memories elk keeps showing horse isnt some haha funny joke but probably due to them being imprisoned in a tiny cell for 10 years and most likely being fed next to nothing

[seghs24]

Just finished Centaurworld S2! My thoughts:

Music was nice but I prefer the S1 soundtrack I think. Idk I'll probably fall in love with it when I listen to the soundtrack again.

Ohhhhh my GOD the fucking Fandom episode. Do people really ship Zulius and Glendale????????

Durpleton's backstory was really upsetting. At first I thought him adopting the Minotaur was just haha funny joke but then it's like. Jesus Christ. He wanted to prove that he could be a good, caring father and not awful like his dad.

Also Horse giving Ched a little kiss on the head....... My fucking heart

I'm SO SAD Horse didn't go look at Zulius' backstory. Really would love to know what was up with him and Splendib. Wish they got together For Real and not just like, vaguely implied they're a couple now.

C.......Ched has a crush on Zulius!???!??!?!??

The fucking birdtaur (Bayden?) that got turned into a monster is absolutely horrifying :)))))

The Nowhere King is still creepy as an elk!

Also love that the dude started an entire war and killed hundreds of thousands of people and centaurs because he was too anxious to ask out a girl. How do you fuck up that bad my guy!!!

The last episode made me cry and now my head hurts :(

Overall I SUPER enjoyed it please watch it if you like haha silly cartoons that end up being absolutely horrific and terrifying

[thegatesofinfinitespace]

🌌 Mor or Kane bc i always want you to talk about them ❤️

𝐎𝐂 𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐉𝐈 𝐀𝐒𝐊𝐒!

🌌 MILKY WAY - what was the inspiration behind your oc? what was the first thing you decided about them?

((HM. Okay so this is really funny, but Kara once said it was kinda, insane that I hadn’t made MZ a Winter Deity alt of any kind, and then I put waaay too much time into thinking about it, as all of my AUs go lol. 

It’s always MZ lmao except when it’s Ziel but normally it’s MZ--

In all honesty I really love elk and deer being seen along with fae creatures, so I kinda... had to do something like that, and... his eyes. They were definitely the one thing I really wanted to focus on when I was making them. He’s supposed to be kinda spooky and ethereal, after all. Those were... probably the first two things I wanted haha...))

((HM. ANOTHER MZ ALT YOU SAY? YEP NEVER GETS OLD.

Kane is... yeah the thought process behind him was a long and convoluted one, but I know that A God That Kills Other Gods and A God That All Things Fear were really far up there in the building of his backstory. Also thorns, since I wanted him to stand out from other MZ alts [who normally get ice affinities]. 

Working with a limited color palette for the world kinda helped shape him really quickly. He was meant to look inhuman instantly. 

Funny enough a later thing that ended up happening is this... wolf/spider theme he’s got going on. He’s a lone wolf type, but then he sets up his borders the way a spider sets up its web. Interesting combo.))

[jackfrostsander]

I was tagged several days go (by @pamouche and @sandersdocs). Sorry that it took me this long... But here are my answers. It was a real struggle to make choices and so, sometimes I cheated by giving two answers… haha   

 fav wtfock s3 things

Their infinite love for each other is definitely the most beautiful thing about S03. It's so pure. The fact that at the start of the season Sander says, when he's putting out the glass with Robbe, that he's afraid that he will never find someone. At least not someone who loves him. And then at the end of the season he realizes he has finally found that. Someone who completely loves him. Someone who is not scared away by his MI and who also (unlike Britt) does not see his MI in everything he says or does. 

I also cannot believe how perfect the acting of the two Willem's was throughout the season! Their chemistry feel so real. It's a testament of the absolute mind-blowing talent that these two young actors have. I am sure we're going to see a lot more from them in the future!

Also the attention for detail was amazing. The perfect choice of music (e.g. as I write below when Wandering Romance is playing during Friday 21:21 and they film Sander when the song goes “No one knows the pain”. Then the camera switches to Robbe as the song continues: “No one sees what I see in you”. To give just one example of the well thought out choices that the production team made.

Can I mention the real life mural here! OMG, such a masterpiece in the centre of Antwerp. This brings us to the amazing aesthetic of Sander. And his bleached hair! His bleached hair! He looked like a Greek God! Apollo has descended from mount Olympus!  

 fav clip

Friday 21:21 but as I am already answering that to other questions below let me add Wednesday 16:36. No better cuddle clip than Wednesday 16:36. How they couldn’t stop touching each other. Here Robbe earned the nickname koala Robbe as he clang to Sander when Sander got up to check his phone… Also the moment where Sander says another iconic line: “I immediately knew, he’s the one”. Sander truly is the king of one-liners…  

 fav scene 

Monday 11:03 because up to that point Sander thought that his happiness with Robbe would end when Robbe sees his bipolar side. He even pushes Robbe away because he thinks he's toxic and Robbe deserves someone better than him. But then Robbe makes it clear to him how much Sander means to him and how Sander's illness is no obstruction in their relationship. Can you imagine the relief this must have brought to Sander???   

 fav shot

Again a hard choice... I like when Sander is playing with Robbe's angel necklace in Friday 22:21. Als the next clip Friday 22:52 is amazing as they are still in the same position in bed. Just in each other's arms, completely happy. 

 fav kiss that robbe initiates

Monday 11:03: "The next minute we are going to kiss", "That's chill" 

This kiss is the confirmation that Sander needed to understand that Robbe was completely honest when he told Sander that he wanted him. This kiss caused such emotion that Sander started to cry and collapsed. 

Second place would go to Tuesday 7:27 for the same reason. Nothing is more beautiful than when Robbe uses his kisses to comfort Sander. Because that's what true love means, being there for the other when they need you the most... And omg, seeing how Sander relaxed as soon as Robbe comforted him with "altijd" and his kiss... 

 fav kiss that sander initiates

Their first one in the swimming pool. It's such a magical moment. He finally had scrambled all the courage he needed to kiss the boy he was so utterly in love with... 

Second place would be for Tuesday 16:31. A small peck at first to test the water that ended in a full make out session that was interrupted by Britt calling him. This time it was Sander who comforted Robbe when he said: "We are the future". 

 fav sander dialogue

"Gij en ik... 100% voor altijd... In elk universum..."

Ok, maybe not much of a dialogue but those few words carry such meaning... And the fact that Sander said these words with such conviction! You could feel how he meant every word of what he said! 

 fav robbe dialogue

The minute by minute speech and "You've touched me and I never felt anything like it" in Monday 11:03. Yes, I keep coming back to Monday 11:03 because I love that scene so incredibly much!!!! 

 fav hug

Wednesday 17:21 

It's so cute how Robbe goes behind Sander and wraps his arms around him like a guardian angel and Sander then calls him an angel! 

 Fav 21:21

Friday 21:21 

Look how vulnerable Sander is when he opens up to Robbe. The way Robbe melted when Sander spoke his iconic words. And this also marks the moment when they fully chose each other and never looked back. 

And the funny parts like "Stomme schoenen!". Haha, such dorks. I love them!  

 Fav. Sobbe Instagram pic

The pic uploaded December 4th, 2019 on Sander's Insta. It's just the two of them acting silly (Sander sticks out his tongue). So, cute.  

And then the Bowie caption: 

"'Cause we're lovers

And that is a fact

Yes, we' re lovers

And that is that"

 fav scene x song pair

Friday 21:21 with Wandering Romance by Lie Ning! 

When during Friday 21:21 Sander's face is on screen the song goes: "No one knows the pain". Then the camera switches to Robbe as the song continues: "No one sees what I see in you". (*)

Is there a better song imaginable??? And then the fact that Lie Ning himself wrote on Instagram: "i wish i had Robbe and Sander when i was a teenager. this love that is not defined by gender or sexuality but purely by affection and heart is exactly what I was looking for back then. glad to be a part of this beautiful romance. everyone knows the pain. but few are brave enough to show it."

(*) Of course this must be a bit of a lie because someone as wonderful and sweet as Sander must have hordes of people who see how special he is... 

 fav message between Sander & Robbe

Hmmm, April 10th, 2020 is really nice. It starts with Sander saying that Robbe was hefty in his dreams that night... Definitely Robbe must have blushed so much reading that... Then he teased Robbe that his battery was empty and so that he couldn't record his lockdown walk movie. Such a Sander thing to do... Teasing his boyfriend... 

Then Robbe writes: "I want to be with you sooooo much. How focking cute you are". Then Sander writes: "I love you, Robin" to which Robbe answers: "I love you too. Abnormally much!"

How perfect is this??? Like the teasing, Robbe calling Sander cute, Sander saying Robin, and then Robbe saying he loves Sander abnormally much. 

 fav banter on Instagram 

Their discussion about their anniversary post. Robbe saying that this was ok for Sander to call him awake for but that Sander had to wait till tomorrow for Robbe's surprise. Saying "patience is a virtue". And then Robbe commenting on Sander's excessive use of emoji's. And Sander teasing Robbe by saying "Thus not like this" followed by 20 hearts... haha 

I am not sure who has all done this so far so I am tagging @lucidpantone, @bowieexaminprogress, @tsjernobyl, @mijnlief, @indimlights, @sanderxrobbee, @debussyatmidnight, and @hereforsobbe. Feel free to ignore! 

[a-tesseractis]

@agelessbecst​ // is it really necessary

     Sounds about right - he hadn’t even asked to get ‘rescued’, let alone saved here, but strangers always had a funny way of caring, even ones he’d gone and fucked over in the past. He was starting to realize that was just a fact of life he’d have to get used to; people always loved inserting themselves into scenarios they simply didn’t belong in.

     Though the wounds were already healing, it all looked worse than it felt, the entirety of his lower abdomen scrambled up by dull, hot blades all festering like some infection was ravaging him. To an outsider, he already looked beyond dead, the ground coated in blood and his body completely still - but to anyone who knew him? This was child’s play. He’d had half a mind to bite back when the dragon carried him from his place in the snow [at least it was cold and he could pretend it was final]. 

     But no, he’d have to put on another excuse to keep bothering again. Say ‘haha, you couldn’t get me this time either, idiot!’, smile, and heal. Awful. Couldn’t Vidar see that he was comfortable out there? No, of course not, and he wasn’t about to spill his guts metaphorically either; not to Vidar, not to family or friends, not to anyone. With a gruff exhale, he pushed himself up enough to tear away at the elk that’d been brought to him, crooked teeth rending cold meat with ease.

           “... Why are you trying to help me?”

Now, who doesn’t like shipping? Mostly, we feel lonely and we want to experiment romance to fill that gap. And what a better way to do it by taking two characters and imagine romantic stories of them. Now, I’m also a big shipper myself, and believe me, I got a lot of ships 

However, some ships are more cute than others imo, and this is why I’m making this top 5 of my favorite ships of the last decade 

As always, this is only a personal opinion, and I hope that you enjoy this special post for the 14th (even though it’s a bit late, but the flu was killing me xD)

So, let’s start!

5.- Finntress

After what Finn had went though all the show, I was starting to think that he would never be able to find a true lover. But then, “Flute spell” appeared

I’m ngl, I never believe I would ended up loving them. We know that Finn had failed before with PB and Flame Princess, and it was a bit sad to see him as a lone guy

But I found something cute on them. Like two wild hearts together. The way they syncronize their flutes, it’s just unique

In addition, we can see how they develop their relationship in a cute and innocent way as the show progress. Her phrase “We both know you're totally in love with me” and the fact that she gave him an elk’s heart, make us see that she could accept his feelings in the end. 

Of course, the ending of the show have left us some doubts about the ship status. But, after all the teases, I’ll consider that they ended up together c:

4.- Penashi

My first OTP ever in a fandom, Penn Zero and Sashi Kobayashi. The part time hero and the part time sidekick

Well, first of all, we see that through the show, Penn appreciates the assistance of Sashi, calling her even the smartest and toughest of girls. He even takes in mind all the advices she is giving to him in some missions, and even, he says that she is “the glue of the team”

We can also see a bit of jealously between this two dorks. Penn was always jealous of how Blaze was earning Sashi’s heart with ease, and he was trying through all the episode to get her attention haha. But it’s not only on his side. Sashi didn’t like him to get close to some girls, like Pirate Maria or Orchid. Jealously between them is kinda funny, but cute xD

Their funny moment is when Penn says to her “Sashi, he's not even human, it's just not gonna work out”, when she made a good comment about Blaze. Looks like Penn wanted Sashi a lot 

Even if the show was a bit short in my opinion, Sam Levine made a good job showing the teases in this ship, not rushed, and with an amazing finale, a kiss between them. Believe me, getting your 1st OTP canon is such a unique experience and a feeling you will love for all your life

3.- Penball

My favorite ship in TAWOG since it’s released. The love between a cat and a “magical peanut”. 

We all know that they had a crush on each other from the start of the show. However, what it makes this ship so special it’s the slow development. They don’t became a couple from a day to another (or from an ep to another)

They started with small blushes, kisses on the cheek, and even had problems hiding their feelings... but everything they did was calmly. Even if we know that they would become endgame, it wasn’t that fast-formulate ship we see everyday. Their love was hidden for 2 seasons, but sure enough, it was worth the wait

It also teaches us a lesson, when love is pure and true, not even physical differences can destroy it. In “The Shell”, Penny was scared that Gumball didn’t go to accept her because of how “ugly” she looked. However, he didn’t care about it, he still loved her. 

I got a lot more ships in TAWOG, but sure enough, this is my favorite one. Pure love in a ship, even though they had their small fights and misunderstandings

2.- Radnid

Through all 2019, this had been my favorite OTP. Rad and Enid. The two bodega-workers that have a deep story together

I’m not gonna lie, with “Second First Date” I was in doubt in shipping them, but after seeing some teases of them (like Rad wanting a hug in “Let’s take a moment”) and the fact that even KO and Mr Gar ships them, made this my OTP

We see them as two simple teenagers that have a lot in common. They love the action, they watch each other’s back, and most of the time, they spend their free time doing some good pal’s stuff. In addition, we cannot deny that there were their small moments that made us ship them in like “Special Delivery” or “Red Action 3: Grudgement day” (this last one, with a bit of doubts)

And also, after watching the two young guys in the finale, I made my HC that they ended up together, and have two kids, and they lived happily ever after c: (and yes, finale is up to the spectator)

Actually, this was actually my top 1 in this list, but there was one ship that managed to fill my heart with pure cuteness

1.- Charlastor

Caught me off surprise, I never thought I would be able to find an amazing ship like this. Alastor and Charlie. What to say? 

In just one pilot, I got a lot of stuff to say. First of all, the dance scene. Isn’t it cute to see both of them dancing together? Those close encounters, those lips almost close to each other (like if they wanted a kiss), and the way they enjoyed that moment. Just gold

Then, let’s see their personalities. Two demons that like to dance and smile, have an optimistic feeling most of the times, and in addition, they got that chemestry that made us see them as a cute pairing

Also, what to say about all the sweet things Al said to her. “Sweetheard” “Charming Demon Belle” “My dear”. I mean, which lady doesn’t like those nicknames? 

I know that the show have more to give us, but I’m hopping to see more scenes of both of them c: 

And this is the end of my top! This was made only for fun, and I hope you enjoyed it :)

true intimacy is being comfortable leaving out apostrophes where you know they belong simply because you know the other person's opinion of you can't be altered by your texting style.
