Could you do a breakdown natal chart for Kun from Wayv?

QIAN KUN - NATAL CHART

Kun was one the most requested I got which was a pleasant surprise!!❤️❤️

(Not claiming to be an expert this is just for fun please don’t take anything too seriously!) Hope this is helpful and that you enjoy it 🥰❤️

Personality: Capricorn Sun, Leo Rising, Taurus Moon, Capricorn Mercury, Capricorn Mars

Clearly a LOT of Earth sign placements but nicely broken up by the fire sign rising

Capricorn Sun has serious and long term plans for the kind of future they want for themselves and once they set out for it they seldom give up. Stubborn to a fault, but also consistent enough to actually persevere. They want the perfect job, reputation, partner, house, family, etc.

Leo rising is a bright, warm and outgoing personality. Lots of energy, creativity and flair. They enjoy having a strong core of friends that they feel understand and enhance their experience and effect on the world. Leo’s are known for being hardworking and as a fixed sign it offers a lot of consistency and determination. They are extremely devoted and loyal once they develop a bond and trust with someone. Though the passion can fizzle out quickly if they aren’t feeling the kind of attention and passion they want.

Taurus Moon is a very grounded person with more social charisma and approachability than Capricorns are known for. They also have a tendency to like bold styles, they have big dreams and goals and you’ll be surprised at how well they can attain them if they’re focused enough (Kun is a Capricorn Stellium so yes this boy KNOWS how to get shit done when it needs to be done) Taurus is also a fixed sign which along with the stubbornness everyone knows about also comes with patience and consistency making them really good leaders when added with their natural friendliness and perseverance

Capricorn Mercury indicates a strong preference for structure, somebody who tends to follow rules and feels uncomfortable breaking them. They tend to have authoritative energy and demeanor. Big ambitions and determination to succeed and excel in their chosen career. Spend more time thinking than they show with a generally very logical mind which can sometimes lead to a black & white perspective

Capricorn Mars - responsible, organized, secretly a thrill seeker, can come off as aloof or guarded when they are around new people or people who they really want to make a good impression on.

Relationships:

Non-Romantic Relationships: Capricorn Sun, Taurus Moon, Leo Rising, Capricorn Mercury, Capricorn Mars

Trustworthy and dependable - the “dad” of the friend group who everyone calls when they have something serious to deal with

Platonic love languages: acts of service and quality time - he loves spending time with people with shared interests especially music. Also loves going out to different places such as different trendy cafes, movie theaters, museums - you name it.

Likes other thrill seekers who push and motivate him to get out of his comfort zone

Sense of humor is a lot more childlike and playful than one would expect from his serious and strict side

Capricorn energy is NOT to be crossed or messed with. These are the ones who are calm af and calculated when angry - this is when you know you are screwed. When Capricorn is calm and collected while enraged, ohhh boy, do they figure out ways to hurt you in the smoothest and most effective ways without so much as lifting their finger. Spare yourself the trauma and DO NOT LIE to him no matter what.

Romantic relationships and preferences : Aquarius Venus, Capricorn Mars, Capricorn Juno, Aries Eros

Aquarius Venus is outgoing, friendly and charismatic. They are attracted to interesting and unique people who stand out of the crowd. They like bold and spontaneous gestures and they will do them back for their partner as well.

Aquarians also dislike overly clingy/needy partners which Capricorn also isn’t a fan of either. These signs are all about independence, individuality, personal expression and achievement. Meaning that while they do yearn for a partner (especially Capricorn placements) they want a partner who is self sufficient and independent with their own hobbies, careers, dreams, goals, etc.

Capricorn Juno implies they’ll be a tough to nail down for very long because Capricorn wants only the best of everything and they’re always busy trying to excel at things and scoping out their options. So you’ll have to prove your worth to them before they are willing to commit because once they do it’s for the long haul

Capricorn likes natural ethereal beauty while Aquarius likes the bold - my guess is healthy mix of both. Natural looking and soft featured with some bold/unique traits like bright/bold hair or fashion style, a bit of spice/sass here and there is another secret pleasure

Be prepared for endless serenades and songs made and sent to you like love letters - whether he’s singing or composing a warm ethereal instrumental for you, his whole heart is in it

Love languages (most to least) - words of affirmation, gift giving, physical touch and quality time

Words of affirmation makes him feel really wanted and needed, he’s also really really good at giving it out to people he loves so if he’s doing it one sidedly it would hurt him and make him feel insecure.

Gives either unbelievably beautiful luxe gifts or unique/fun gifts and loves to surprise his partner with them often especially after time apart

Capricorns HATE wasting time they are hyper aware of how many hours in a day and how much can be done in a day. So, if he’s spending a lot of time with you, you’re very very special and important to him and he prioritizes this time very highly

Star gazing dates, beach dates, camping trips - this man will go out of his way to make sure every date is an experience. He is PREPARED, he has an itinerary in his mind, he’s looked up the travel routes and picked the best one. When you go camping he will FLEX with his efficiency and ability to handle the labor heavy tasks. This man will purposely wait till you’re looking to start chopping wood (not that ANYONE is complaining), put the tent up and have it filled with blankets and pillows galore in 2.00034 seconds because he practiced in the dorm living room with the others like a drill routine. (Lucas taught him how to chop the wood & still look hot while doing it)

Is the MOST polite and endearing person to your family and friends. Goes above and beyond to be the perfect partner around your family and they are unable not to LOVE him. Is especially soft and doting of any children or elderly relatives. And none of it is phony at all, he doesn’t know anyway else to even think. Respect, manners, and family are extremely important to Earth signs. They’ll probably end up liking him more than you but honestly you can’t even blame them

(None of y’all ungrateful people better ever slack on Zaddy Kun’s visuals ever again!! If I don’t get to see his happy trail during 2021 I’m burning the SM building down once and for all)

18+ Preferences:

Aries Eros ooof - passionate, possessive and steamy. Pick their partners off instinct and energy - once they really like you they become infatuated and want to STAY that way. If it’s not the “I need you so fucking bad I’m gonna lose my mind” type of love they DON’T want it.

Leo Rising is a possessive as fuck placement thankfully when they get riled up or jealous they have the confidence not to get angry with you or insecure about it. BUT.... you‘ll still be awakening a whole new type of beast and quite frankly he will let you know that it’s all your fault as he holds you down and uses you like the stupid toy you are till you remember who you belong to

If he sees you doing anything even remotely domestic his Taurus Moon and Capricorn Juno will have his mind go from soft and warm thoughts to bending you over the kitchen counter and taking you right there without a care or second thought spared

Positions where he feels in in control are his favorite - he likes being on top of you, behind you and if he can pick you up and carry you while ramming into you best believe he will.

His favorite is position is missionary - likes to feel big and dominant he also wants to be able to see as much of you as possible and kissing you as much as possible from your lips to just about anywhere else he can reach. Will be staring at you 99% of the time with big smoldering eyes that don’t waver in the slightest. In fact if you give him eye contact back he’ll just be even more turned on

Now...this might be controversial but... Capricorn Mars usually suggests power play/dynamic kink - think rich powerful CEO who secretly fantasizes about being tied up and blindfolded. Not to say that is exclusively his main kink bc it’s definitely not, he is 100% mostly dom BUT with the right person he’d be more than willing and very excited to try it out - probably because they are always in control so it’s an adrenaline rush for them to relinquish it to someone else. Doesn’t necessarily mean an extreme level of being submissive even just simple restraints can feel very extreme for a bossy and in-control Capricorn

Aquarius Venus also likes breaking relationship “norms” and trying out new things. They are super fun and bright when happy so when he’s in love he’s in LOVE. Wants to sing about it 24/7 but is too stubborn to be clingy or needy. The type to smile during sex, especially when he’s on top of you or drunk. Don’t even get me started on drunk handsy Kun whining in your ear about how he just wants to sneak out of the party early.....bc I will genuinely never recover

Very vocal in the bedroom - gives his partner tons of praise. Completely loses his mind and is loud af when you kiss your way from his neck down to below the hips

Most of the time sex with him is more passionate than kinky, not lightening fast jack rabbit thrusts instead hard and deep rhythmic ones that make your whole body shake - Hungry makeout sessions, sneaky little hickeys where no one else will see, massages than turn into hours of love making, takes his time to hit deep and hard inside you, handfuls of your hair, gaspy whispers

When he is feeling more kinky it’s usually spur of the moment. In the car in the middle of a rainy night during a cancelled schedule or after an especially steamy date night where he decides to take you to a hotel afterwards

KING OF AFTER CARE (NOT up for debate) - cooks you an amazing meal afterwords or orders up a feast if he’s too spent to get up too, cuddled up in blankets watching a movie for the rest of the night afterwards.

Part 1 | Part 2

This part contains Hyunsuk, Jihoon, Yoshi, Junkyu, Mashiho and Jaehyuk ideal type

↳ 𝐇𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐤

cancer moon, gemini venus, scorpio mars, sagittarius juno

His ideal type is someone who knows very well how to make a conversation flow, who's friendly and knows how to handle a social situation. He may find someone witty, cunning, and even sarcastic very attractive. For Hyunsuk mental connection is the most important thing in a relationship, so he will love to find someone with whom he can connect mentally and have entertaining conversations on different topics. Mental stimulation is very important to him, so his partner should have the ability to keep up with him without making things monotonous or boring. He needs to satisfy his need to talk. A s/o who's friendly, easy-going, entertaining and sociable, even humorous, but at the same time who gives off a magnetic and interesting aura is very appealing to him. Someone who has an attractive personality and give off mysterious vibes. He will like that his s/o can keep up with the same intensity level as him, as he's usually quite intense for love relationships, so he won't like someone who's easily freaked out or overwhelmed by that. On a deeper level and about what will really make him fall in love is someone who's kind, warm-hearted and empathetic. In fact, Hyunsuk has a sensitive heart, he's constantly in need of emotional care, loves to protect and take care of the people he considers important, so many times he tends to repress himself and his emotions for others, putting them first. Thanks to that, his ideal type is someone who covers that space, who's naturally care-giver, affectionate and demonstrative with him. Someone attentive to his emotional states and that can listen to whenever he needs it. If it's about a s/o with protective and maternal instincts over him, then Hyunsuk will literally feel like he's in heaven. At the same time, he will like the relationship to be chill and light, he will like a partner who can give him his space, who's independent and optimistic. He doesn't like being overly serious in a relationship, instead maintaining a strong, long-term but healthy and chill bond.

key words: talkative, friendly, mysterious vibes, magnetic, empathetic, kind-hearted, soft, independent

gemini/cancer moon (uncertain), pisces venus, aries mars, aquarius juno

His ideal type is someone with an independent, strong and dedicated attitude, he will love someone who's able to be on the same level as him and that have a lot of confidence in themselves. Someone who doesn't let themselves be put down by others and is difficult to conquer. Jihoon moves through challenges, he's intense and can be very fiery, that's why he needs a partner who can withstand that even explosive side of him and who's not easily intimidated by it. Someone who can enjoy the spontaneous and adrenaline-filled dynamics with him is very attractive to him. If it's a honest, direct and optimistic s/o, it will attract a lot of his attention. This person must also have a much more passive and sensitive side inside as opposed to their outside, just like him. Jihoon is a tight-lipped romantic, he sees love as something dreamy and mystical, so likewise his ideal type is the embodiment of perfection in his eyes. To really fall in love he must feel an extraordinary bond with that person, he looks for someone who can perfectly wrap the feminine aura and not be ashamed of it. Someone emotional and in contact with their inner world. An empathetic and intuitive s/o who's able to understand what he feels without having to say many words. Also, very affectionate and demonstrative, who tells him how much they love him and reminds him of all the good things about him, since he can feel a bit insecure at times. Someone who has the sole intention of making him feel loved and cared for will make him fall in love completely. He finds someone with emotional intelligence attractive, also very creative and capable of expressing himself artistically in different ways such as, for example, writing or music. He also likes to maintain relationships with a certain independence and unpredictability, so that it doesn't become boring and routine being together. Someone caring will captivate him, as well as unique, friendly and entertaining.

-Since his moon sign is uncertain, it is not possible to know specifically if he's attracted to a more talkative and logical partner or to a more protective with maternal instinct partner :(

key words: emotional, intuitive, feminine aura, empathetic, demonstrative, charming, hard to conquer, independent

He looks for a stable and loyal s/o, with whom he can progress little by little in the relationship until it becomes serious.

Hi to my friend and favorite Austen scholar :) I was wondering if you consider Darcy and Elizabeth an example of the opposites attract trope? I get that they APPEAR very different, with Lizzie exuberant and prone to laughing and teasing while Darcy is a fundamentally serious, reserved introvert. But as I reread and rewatch, I'm struck by how alike I think they actually are. They're both very critical, discerning and quick to judge, they're both extremely clever and intelligent, they're both very insightful (though, like all of us, only when it comes to people other than themselves and those they're closest to!), they're both close to very few but fiercely loyal and loving towards those they do let in, they're both very analytical and contemplative, they're both too stubborn and prideful and reluctant to change their ways until they both learn that's more a sign of strength than weakness. I could bore you by rambling further, but hopefully you get the point! I'm curious whether you agree that they're actually more fundamentally similar than different...? Or am I just as off base as usual?!

Hello lovely, and what a good question!

You know, I've always considered Darcy and Elizabeth to be opposites on the surface but then quite similar beneath it. (That probably reads like a bit of a cop out on my part, but I think it makes sense if you slice it apart.) I'd argue that combination is largely what makes them such a captivating pairing overall.

The so-called "opposite" attributes Darcy and Elizabeth possess work in a two-fold fashion. On the one hand, it explains why they butt heads in the beginning because, in personality, not to mention in the manner in which they're both able to interact with people - acquaintances and/or strangers, especially - they are diametrically opposed. She's extroverted, lively, good humored, and easy to engage in conversation. He's severe, socially inept, broody, and reserved to the point of being almost monosyllabic at the best of times. That difference fosters a lot of tension between them initially. They don't know what to make of each other. How to interact. It also helps to create, elongate, and preserve the canyon of misunderstanding that makes up their dynamic for the first half of the book.

On the other hand, the differences in their dispositions are also where hardcore attraction comes into play. They both gravitate toward, seek to investigate, rather, the qualities the other person has that they do not. It's like catnip. Draws them in like magnets. They're both similarly afflicted in that regard, I'd say.

Darcy is bewitched by Elizabeth's vivacity and openness, by her ability to laugh at the absurdity that is present throughout society. She's easy among new company where he is stilted, uncomfortable, and he LIKES being around her because of that. It draws him out of his shell. Forces him to be more present and attentive, even if "more present" manifests only in the heady looks he shoots at her from across the ballroom. He's stimulated by her wit, by her teasing. She astonishes him (in a good way), keeps him on his toes, and that's exciting...erotic.

Elizabeth, too, even in her most fastidious "I have never sought your good opinion" moments can't help but be caught up in the enigma that is Darcy. Arrogant and taciturn though he seems, his aloofness, as well as the natural reserve which surrounds him, makes him equal parts interesting and grating to her because she's unable to fully figure him out. She tries to glean what she can about him from observation, from limited time spent in his company, but he's essentially a lockbox (rude!), so instead she has to rely on the gossip that other people (Wickham) have related, and even then she's not satisfied. She still wants to know more. Needs to know more about who he is. She says herself that the different accounts she's heard of him "puzzle her exceedingly." The point here being that she can't stop trying to puzzle out the man from the second they meet no matter how hard she tries. She's caught up without realizing just how caught up she is. I mean, even when she's declaring she hates him I'd argue there's still a part of her that's more enthralled with him than anything. He remains an unsolved mystery, which is maddening as well as a little dazzling; so conscious or not, she feels a pull toward him. It cannot be helped. She's in over her head. I believe she's desperate to know if there's more to him than meets the eye (though she'd rather die than admit such a thing.) So really, his introversion has its own attractions for her as well--it keeps her probing, orbiting.

Like you mentioned, too, Darcy and Elizabeth have a lot of traits in common. They're clever, contemplative, critical, astute, and stubborn, to name a few. However, where the juxtaposition comes into the mix is how these things are expressed in their individual personalities. Because, in that regard, they do express or convey these traits differently. I think that's where the "opposites attract" trope could apply.

That said, Darcy and Elizabeth do both face similar conflicts throughout the novel. They're each prideful in their own way and must learn how to overcome their own snobbery, their own criticisms of people. I think we tend to overlook that as something they share because of how it manifests, again, with respect to their individual personalities and social classes. But without that tenet of similarity tying them together there'd be no romantic tension in the novel. That's the whole point of conflict upon which the whole plot turns - their respective (and mutual!) pride and prejudice. Also, if they both weren't loyal and protective of those they loved most in the world, and if they hadn't had a mutual evolution where they'd learned not to be so quick to judge others and forgive past grievances, then the romantic resolution between them would have fallen flat. As readers, we wouldn't have been rooting so hard for them to be together if they hadn't had those things in common. Right?

Part of the reason we consider Darcy and Elizabeth to be well-matched match by the end of the story is because they're opposites on the surface who are bound by the same moral fiber - character - underneath. They're good people who have made and learned from their own mistakes. That growth is what matters. It's because of their mutual self-reflection and self-improvement that they're able to come together to form a healthy union.

In my estimation Darcy and Elizabeth are similar in all the big ways that matter - smart, devoted, forgiving, dependable, loving, etc. - and different in ways - cheerful, stoic, witty, quiet, rich, bougie etc. - that allows their dynamic to feel fresh and surprising...not to mention swoon worthy as hell!

OH, NO I GOTCHU! Gives us your take on Kagura. 💞

since u asked first <3 THIS IS GONNA BE CORNY AND LONG AS FUCK JUST A HEADS UP

favorite thing about them: oof where do i start?? her character is very personal to me. i really struggled with chronic depression & anxiety in my teen years & immersing myself in her world was a real escape for me. at that time (& still to this day tbh) she was just it for me lmao. like, she had all the qualities i admired in a female character. shes drop dead gorgeous, intelligent, headstrong, has a dry & witty sense of humor, and she was so driven to do what made herself happy that she was willing to die trying. i rly saw her as a role model during those years & kinda adopted her personality in a way. & because i started watching inuyasha at such a young age (i think 10/11) she kinda stuck with me all my life lmao. ANYWAYS TL;DR SHE’S LIKE REALLY PRETTY

least favorite thing about them: i adore her to my core but shes very impulsive by nature and made some pretty big mistakes that led to her untimely death imo. yes, her entire character arc is heartbreakingly beautiful and i appreciate it for what it is BUT her character had the potential to grow and change so much & i dont think it was really necessary for her to die. i see a lot of people (esp u know who) say that kagura got her freedom and her peace and all this but honestly what happened to her is not what she wanted at all lmao?? she wanted to be alive girl. and with how open the rules of the inuyashaverse are there are like 9000 ways she could have been saved/brought back and become a key player in the storyline. and the potential for sesskagu would fall still in line with sesshomaru’s character development in the main series. obviously his affection for her really changed him in a pivotal way and he would still struggle with his pride considering the fact that her dad is literally the shittiest dude ever and set his arm on fire ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

favorite line:

and

ugh do u know how hard it is for me to watch that scene bruh TO THIS DAY i get choked up every single time

brotp: oh i have a lot lmaO um 1. kagura/kohaku - obviously they have a pretty familial (albeit distant cuz trust no hoe) relationship already but man if things ended differently she would absolutely be big sis #2 2. kagura/kikyo - i really love them as a ship but even platonically they are absolutely unstoppable. i dont even think they ever say anything to each other in the original canon? but based on personality & character traits alone they would have an incredible friendship dynamic. 3. kagura/sango - ultimate girlboss duo. definitely mom friends. take the kids out to train together type friends. drinking sake and dancing by the bonfire type friends. working out & cooking together type friends. ya dig? 4. kagura/kagome - i feel like kagome would be scared of her at first & kagura would be a lil put off by how pure kagome is but they would grow on each other like no other. definitely gossip friends. ask each other for relationship advice type friends. telling sex stories type friends. very non-judgemental & accepting vibe. kagura is also very curious by nature and would be enamored with kagome’s stories about her life in tokyo. 5. kagura/jakotsu - THE CHISME. fashion icons. what else do u need.

otp: WELL OBVIOUSLY sesskagu BUT consider the following: kogaxkagura - i know what youre thinking. but listen. the hatefucking. kikyoxkagura - MY ENTIRE HEART. healing together. working through trauma together. being each other’s rock & confidante. a whole PARTNERSHIP. very loyal & devoted. very deep feelings. yuraxkagura - aight this one is purely aesthetic but come ON

as for sesskagu..... WHEW to me they just scream (bisexual) power couple. she keeps him in check, and he appreciates her boldness. they are equals. she doesn’t need his protection, but sometimes it just feels nice to know she’s safe. they’re not terribly verbal but they don’t need to be. touch is her love language. he just loves her presence. he is constantly in awe of her, and not always for positive reasons, but nonetheless. they have an unspoken & unbreakable bond.

notp: narakuxkagura obvi. we dont do incest in this house. also hello actual abuse?? who else is she even shipped with that i dont like sfjlsd

random headcanon: i just gave y’all like 80 but anyway i have a modern au kagukik headcanon where they’re like witchy gfs. kikyo is really into spirituality and spiritual healing & is naturally into crystals. kagura is literally a straight up witch and tries to hex people constantly

unpopular opinion: ?? idk maybe that she shouldnt have fucking died in the original series lmao. im sry but r*miko could have made it work and its really not my fault that inuyasha is just wasted potential: the anime

i feel like i was gonna add something else to this but i forgot and im tired of typing anyways if u made it this far i love u forever <3

Arashi Astrology: Their Emotional World (Moon Placements)

Ohno Satoshi: Cancer Moon in the 7th House

The Moon Goddess in the Mirror

Cancer, ruled by the moon, is the sign of feminine strength and leadership. The Divine Goddess leads with love and gentleness, a passive and indirect form of leadership but no less effective or firm. That is why Cancer is symbolized by the Crab, which moves from side to side to maneuver around the perilous crashing waves, always seeking security and comfort in their everchanging world. Those with a Cancer moon have a strong intuition and feel deeply, though they can often hide it behind their protective shell.

Placed in the 7th house, the house of relationships, of mirrors, the Cancer Moon comes across in a reflective sort of fashion. Those with a moon in the 7th often do not appear to be sensitive or emotional people, especially when alone. However, interacting with other people on a one-on-one basis brings out their emotional side, as if they can process and express their emotions by finding them reflected in other people. The normally calm Ohno when around others can unexpectedly burst into little temper tantrums and playful displays and even tears.

Cancer moons are looking for a home, but more the love and comfort associated with it rather than the physical place, and Ohno finds that in the relationships he has with people. He is attracted to those who are kind and soothing to be around. At the same time, he himself is seen as kind and soothing to be around, which attracts people towards him. He is the person who you feel comfortable voicing your worries to, even if you’re not sure he’s listening. It’s an aura that he releases unconsciously, and it causes people to mother him, to look after him and check if he’s doing ok.

Ultimately, as much of a hermit (crab) he seems at times, the key to Ohno’s emotional fulfillment is people. Like the Goddess he cares for people passively and indirectly, but still, warmly, receiving their love as he softly radiates with his own.

Sakurai Sho: Capricorn Moon in the 2nd House 

The Third Little Pig with his House of Bricks

To a Capricorn Moon, a solid foundation is no joke. Capricorn is symbolized by a goat climbing the mountain one step at a time and like that goat, the Capricorn Moon holds not only ambition, but a realistic ambition. That does not mean that they do not aim high, but it does mean that if they do aim high, they’ll come up with a 200-page plan to carry it through. To a Capricorn moon, work and achievement is key to emotional fulfillment.

That becomes even more true when that Capricorn moon is placed in the 2nd house, the house of material and immaterial possessions. Their financial security and emotional satisfaction are intrinsically tied, and they’re more likely to surround themselves with things of high value once they can afford them. That may sound materialistic, but it’s more that they are proud of how far they’ve come and their increased ability to provide not only for themselves but also for others (Capricorn moons love to give gifts to people and Sakurai definitely embodies that trait).

A common misconception is that Capricorn moons are dour, repressed, and boring, which cannot be further from the truth. Capricorn Moons can display a wicked sense of humor and mischief due to their ability to read a room, it’s just that they have a strong awareness of their public image, and thus tend to keep their emotions under control and well-managed. If a Capricorn moon is in good emotional health, they are incredibly adept at using their humor as a public and social tool. However, it should be remembered that they are more sensitive than they seem and can be too hard on themselves. The moon is the most changeable and fluctuating out of all the planets, and thus having the moon in the 2nd signals fluctuations in their finances or their self-esteem. It’s important for Capricorn moons to have a safe space where they can relax and feel unjudged and it seems that for Sakurai, Arashi is that space for him.

Aiba Masaki: Aries Moon in the 11th House

Mary’s Little Lamb who Loved Her So

Bless Aries Moons for their joy in life! As the first sign, Aries represents the beginning, and all the sunny optimism of it, and thus those with an Aries moon are childlike in the way they express their emotions: instinctive, naïve, and so very honest. However, they’re not just sunshine and rainbows. Ruled by Mars, Aries moons are action-oriented, impulsive, and defensive. They can easily become passionate and fired up about something, inspiring others with their energy. But, if they become impatient and let their attention wander, they can just as easily lose interest and hop onto something else. A significant part of this placement’s development is learning how to sit still and be patient. Yet, the Aries impulsivity and straightforward honesty is also its charm and its strength, helping them be trailblazers and leaders in their own right.

In the 11th House, the house of friends, communities, and society, an Aries moon devotes its energy to those groups wholeheartedly. They have a strong social conscience and wish to be of help to people, and this can be seen in Aiba when he tries to cheer up the other members or does his work without complaining.  For this placement, feeling belonging in a group and serving their community in some fashion is key to their emotional fulfillment. Once they have found their place, they light up the world, shining others with their warmth and joy. A moon in 11th can point towards great renown and recognition by others in society; those with this placement have the ability to touch people’s hearts from the other side of the globe. They have a social charm that endears others to them, however that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re social butterflies, as the scattered energy of an Aries moon along with the detached lens of the 11th house leads to these people having many acquaintances but a select number of friends. Which is just as well, as they are so loyal and devoted that there’s the danger of burn-out if they expanded their friend group too much.

Ninomiya Kazunari: Virgo Moon in the 12th House

Rumpelstiltskin with his Hidden Name

As the sign of service, Virgo is unassuming and humble, content to living a simple life, so long as they have found a place where they feel needed and useful. This is key for Virgo Moons, for without such a place their nervous energy has no outlet. They have a keen eye for detail that constantly finds things to improve and work on even if they are not consciously looking, and so if they don’t have a certain area to themselves to straighten up, they can become quite cranky and sullen. When in good emotional health however, these individuals are reliable friends who are good to turn to for advice. Ultimately Virgo Moons are practical; they know their limits, as well as the value of diligent practice and hard work.

When the Moon is placed in the 12th House, the House of the Social Unconscious, a veil is placed over the individual’s emotions. They feel far away and subdued. As a result, those with a 12th House moon have difficulty comprehending their own emotions and may need frequent periods of solitude to re-settle into themselves, especially since they can become absorbed with other people’s emotions when socializing. The distance of their own feelings can make a 12th House Moon believe they’re indifferent to everything—like Nino did when he came onto the show, “Honma Dekka!?”, to consult about his problem of “not caring about anything except games”, saying that he had little interest in himself and had no preferences when it came to the food he eats and the clothes he wears.  

In reality, Ninomiya does care. Maybe not about concrete day-to-day things (though it should be noted that he does like having a schedule and some consistency, that’s the Virgo showing), but emotions do bubble up unexpectedly, and nowhere is that clearer than when he’s talking about Arashi. His words unknowingly reveal the depth of his observations and the amount of thought he’s put into supporting the group and the other members. Virgo is the sign of service and the 12th House is the house of sacrifice; combine those together and you have someone who, at their core, is quite selfless.

Matsumoto Jun: Taurus Moon in the 11th House 

The Deity of the Mountain with all its Natural Riches

Taurus is the sign of the physical, the tangible, the five senses. Matsumoto, with his Taurus Moon, is ever so aware of the clothes he wears, the food he eats, the music he hears, and the temperature of his bedroom, and making sure that these are all to his liking is paramount. Taurus Moons have a sense for aesthetic, especially for earthy sensuality, and little by little, he sculpts the world around him into the life he wants to live. Whatever he has in mind he will succeed in, for there are few more persevering than a Taurus Moon.

Of course, persevering can be just a nice way of saying stubborn. It’s an astrology cliché, but not a false one. But what people often misunderstand about the Taurus stubbornness is the romantic sentimentality behind it, the passive femininity, because Taurus is ruled by Venus. They are protective and nurturing of those they care about, concentrating their energy towards growth, not destruction. In an unhealthy Taurus, this can manifest into possessiveness, stagnation, and delusion, but a healthy Taurus is at ease with themselves and the natural flow of life.

Having the moon in the 11th house means that Matsumoto, like Aiba, has a strong social conscious; his emotions are most visible when it comes to his community, his friends and colleagues. It is to them his persevering and loyal heart goes to; the combination of Taurus and the 11th House tends to make people the “mom friend”, the one who checks up on you from time to time, asks if you’ve recently ate, straightens your clothes before you go onstage. In the case of Matsumoto, this side of him is also visible when planning Arashi’s projects, he wants to do right by the fans, the staff, and of course the other members, and so he sits through long meeting after long meeting, trying to make sure that every member shines in their own way, that every fan has the best time they can possibly have. His efforts do not go unnoticed and people respond to that loyalty and care with admiration; it is what helped him first grab the country’s attention as Domyouji and it is ultimately what makes him MJ of Arashi.

[yasmine-arslan]

( melisa pamuk, female, she/her. ) — see yasmine arslan (murray) ? that’s the broken bird of fairview . the twenty-nine year old has been a resident on wisteria lane for four years and currently works as a registered nurse (rn). yasmine confided in rose with the death of her son and grew close enough to her to help her cope with the his loss. since the news broke, any progress they’d made toward yasmine becoming a person again has sent her into regression. her returning-optimism has seemingly been replaced by a dark, cynical sense of humor cracking under the surface. maybe it’s the fact that a dark cloud in the form of one or two secrets is hanging over their head. they are described as smelling of ysl’s black opium, having a bronze-glow with enticing eyes and dark, long tresses with full lips and being able to save a life just as quickly as they can take one. // (jessy, she/her, twenty-four, cst). + disciplined, resourceful - cunning, perfervid

tw: child death, miscarriage, depression.

short version:

yasmine arslan comes from a wealthy family, primarily involving the shale or oil companies they own. she didn’t want to follow in her four older siblings’ footsteps (with yasmine being the youngest) and continue delving into the family business. she joined the military at a young age and became a medic for the u.s. marines with her family’s full-support.. it was meeting adrian that encouraged her to wrap up her contract and become honorably discharged from the marines seeing as fraternizing was forbidden. however, her devotion to helping people didn’t cease and she accepted an offer as an rn in the hometown they decided to settle into.

it came to little surprise to either of them, even after a miscarrige, when yasmine became pregnant with their little boy, josiah. those around her were shocked to see her excel at being a mother seeing as she seemingly didn’t possess a single maternal bone in her body, but motherhood changed her. she adored her son and josiah was absolutely adored to bits by both of his parents.

adrian had been in the military a lot longer than yasmine and had a lot more blood on his hands than she did. he had a harder time adjusting to the civilian lifestyle than she had and ultimately decided to cope by becoming a mercenary. he was a loving husband and father by day, but a killer, gun-for-hire by night. all of the killing began to take a toll when he sloppily allowed one of his marks to get away. he didn’t think it would come back to haunt him until it did. their four-year old son was killed in cold-blood in their arms, forever changing their lives and their marriage.

yasmine was never a warm person, by any means, but she lived for her son and her family. his death forced herself into a recluse unable to do much other than autonomously meander throughout life.

instead of separating, the family moved to wisteria lane to try and start over and discuss the idea of trying for another child. despite her cold demeanor, nursing is her passion. she seldom shows her emotions and really only allows adrian in long enough to get a glimpse of a person beyond her beautiful, bronzed, cold demeanor. she doesn’t know her husband is responsible for the death of their son because heaven forbid. when she isn’t in her nurses scrubs or work uniforms, she’s seen in designer attire. very little people know of josiah’s existence because no one is allowed in their home. those who are hardly make it far enough to see his room or any lingering pictures of him.

Adrian (an ex-military, gun-for-hire mercenary) and Yasmine lost their son brutally for reasons unbeknownst to her, though Adrian knows who is responsible and why.

Silky camisoles, satin blouses, plain tees, oversized sweaters, and over-the-shoulder shirts dominate her closet. She also wears dresses, sundresses or bodycons and anything in between, and even dual-utilizes her blazers as dresses. Yasmine can also be found wearing her ex-husband’s tees and jackets when she isn’t wearing her own cardigans, denim or leather outwear, or workout gear. Bralettes are always fashionably seen poking out of her shirts. She mostly wears neutral or minimalistic hues such as black, white, nude, baby pink or blue, gray, and any variations of these shades. Her obscene shoes are a vast collection of chunky booties, long boots, heels, wedges, and flats, mostly black with the occasional color. She can always be found wearing a designer bag and accessories. Her ears only wear one singular set of diamond earrings, while she wears a small cross around her neck that she interchanges with a lock that consists of a photo of her son, Josiah. She still wears her wedding bands and no other rings.  ☾ ━ Physical Description: Barely standing at five and a half feet and a little over a hundred pounds, Yasmine can be described as petite. She is often underestimated as she can put anyone on their ass before they can anticipate it. Her go-to makeup look consists of a natural look unless she’s purposely going for a subtle glam look. Either way, her lipstick choices are subtle nudes, pinks, browns, and the occasional red. Mostly, she sticks to matte lips or clear glosses. Her lashes are thick and long without mascara, but she piles it on to accommodate her thick eyebrows and full lips. Now that she is no longer in the military or nursing, she can be found wearing black pants, booties or heels, and blouses. When she’s summoned to aid one of the Bianchi members or associates with medical attention, she will wear her nursing outfit if she can, but she always keeps her nursing bag handy that she mostly substitutes with her handbags.  ☾ ━ Tropes: The Healer, The Grieving Mother, The Vengeful. ☾ ━ MBTI: ENFJ (Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging). ☾ ━ Temperament: Choleric ☾ ━ Zodiac: Aries - The Ram. ☾ ━ Alignment: Chaotic neutral. ☾ ━ Element: Fire.  ☾ ━ Sin: Wrath.  ☾ ━ Hogwarts House: Slytherin.  ☾ ━ Greek Goddess: Athena, Goddess of War and Wisdom.  ☾ ━ Negative Traits: Impatient, moody, short-tempered, impulsive, aggressive. ☾ ━ Positive Traits: Courageous, determined, confident, enthusiastic, optimistic, honest, passionate. ☾ ━ Personality: She hadn’t had an easy childhood and it hardened her from an early age. Although she’s a nurse, her personality doesn’t fit the bill of a healer. She’s cold to nearly anyone initially other than her patients and her son before his death, and her ex-husband pre-divorce. She has a cold, dry sense of humor that consists of sarcasm and beration of others. She is easily set off and has been known for her violent outbursts, none of which she’s ever lost because she’s underestimated. While she can come off as neurotic and moody, Yasmine can be loyal to a fault and always puts the physical wellbeing and needs of others before her own. She was born from a wealthy family and has always chosen to help others in need, despite her lack of compassion. Losing her son only made her more aggressive and passionate, closed-off and even malicious. Few get to see past the fortress she’s created around her heart.  ☾ ━ Fixations (Likes): ☾ ━ Aversions (Dislikes): ☾ ━ Vices: Red or white wine, tequila, the occasional cigarette, prescription anti-anxieties and opiates.  ☾ ━ Medical History: Two pregnancies (one unsuccessful via miscarriage, one successful), fertility issues, a broken arm, two bullets in her shoulder, chicken pox, occasional seasonal allergies.  ☾ ━ Psyche: Yasmine was diagnosed with a mild case of PTSD following her two tours overseas, but was easily cured with therapy and an antidepressant. She despised taking medications until she was diagnosed with a slight case of postpartum before giving birth to her son instead of after birthing him. Josiah was the light of Yasmine and Garrett’s lives, completely curing her of any depressive state she might’ve been in as she had always considered herself mentally strong. Since his death, she’s been unable to recover from the pit of despair and meanness that consumes her life. The only person capable of even coming close to making her feel a sliver of emotion is Garrett. She abuses prescription drugs, especially opiates, to cope with the loss. Occasionally she becomes roped into a state of mind where she seeks comfort in Garrett and sleeps with him, subconsciously trying for another child despite her aversion to exposing another child to their childhood. 

Other: 

➤ Yasmine was born in the country of Turkey into a strict household that consisted of three additional siblings (two older brothers, one younger sister), four including herself. Her parents own a shale corporation within the country and gave their children trust funds to jump start their educations and futures. For a better chance at a future, she was sent to live with an aunt and an uncle who raised her in Texas. They’d always envisioned their daughter as a doctor, but nursing was her passion. They were proud of her for graduating with honors and still continuing to work her way up the ranks in the medical field. 

➤ She spent the entirety of her career easily surpassing the people around her at every milestone and every skill while healing those around her. She witnessed death until it desensitized her and tried to heal anyone, enemies and allies alike. 

➤ Yasmine met Adrian Murray early-on in her nursing schooling career. He was infamous, more than a man but less than a God as far as other soldiers were concerned. After years of despising men and swerving them at every turn, she became infatuated with him despite the differences in their age. Garrett Russell was a Force Recon Marine, Scout Sniper, 2nd Lieutenant, and was a Silver Star recipient, with over a decade and a half of military experience under his belt. He reciprocated his feelings for her and chose to continue their relationship after he retired. Not shortly after she graduated, Yasmine became a nurse at a local hospital in Corpus and they began to see each other.

➤ After many false positives, difficulty with their fertility, and a miscarriage, Adrian and Yasmine successfully conceived a son, Josiah Zayn Murray. He was the best parts of his parents, the only good thing either of them were capable of. Adrian became a mercenary to support his family, even though Yasmine had her trust fund to keep them living a comfortable lifestyle. Regardless, he chose to funnel his energy and skills into something he was good at rather than let the trauma of his experiences as a soldier consume him. 

➤ Their family was the epitome of picture-perfect, of happiness. It was enviable to watch a beautiful family live such a quaint, charmed life, despite Yasmine’s opposition to her husband’s occupation. She tried to focus on being a good mother and a supportive wife, but often found herself resenting him every time he’d come home covered in blood, smelling of gunpowder or burnt flesh. He was an attentive father, but became lost in the bloodlust aspect of being a mercenary and it eventually came back to haunt them.

➤ Shortly after completing a job, Adrian inadvertently left a loose end behind, or so she assumed.. Said ‘loose-end’ eventually found his family and remorselessly attacked them, spraying their home with bullets, leaving both of them unscathed. Their son, however, was shot repeatedly and died immediately and gruesomely in their arms. It took her awhile to figure out he was to blame, despite having her suspicions, but she resented him beyond her ability to remain married to him. They became separated because she couldn’t see him without thinking of Josiah, the spitting image of Adrian, but she refused to officially divorce him.. 

➤ Eventually, they moved to Fairview at the recommendation of a family friend and settled into the quaint neighborhood of Wisteria Lane, hoping for a chance at a fresh start where they could hopefully work on their marriage and try for another child. 

➤ She doesn’t allow anyone to publicly see her grieve, choosing to break down on her own or amid her husband’s presence. Her coldness only amplified and she’s recently become more violent, hitting Adrian and throwing anything at him while purposely instigating so he’ll defend himself against her. 

➤ She purposely finds and puts herself in situations that could cost her her life, unafraid of death and the morbid possibility of meeting her son soon.

[clownhara]

I've been following you for a while but I dont know all that much about your OCs so how about a big resume of them all?? :DDD

I haven't really posted much about them on this account until recently so that doesn't really suprise me 😅 but yeah I absolutely can! Warning though this is going to be unbelievably long

I guess I should start off with Zensuke because he is THE gay purple cat. I named this blog after this guy. I made him when I was probably like 12-13 or around there so he had all the things you'd expect a repressed edgy kid's of to have. He was basically a demon who managed to get out of thier world's equivalent of hell and instead of doing anything evil he just made cake and got married to the guard who was supposed to kill him. I don't really do much with him anymore but I still love him very much.

Corbinian is probably the character I talk most about and he's the one I edit to fit into different worlds the most. He was a normal doctor but he got his memory wiped by robots and ended up working as an executioner for the robotic mafia, but eventually got caught and had to hide out in Lobotomy (he was originally a Lobotomy Corp oc) where he discovered he can extract abnormality dna and with some altering the dna can be injected into humans causing a variety of different mutations and effects. He's usually very heartless and manipulative, but does have a soft spot, usually for anxious, soft spoken people, who subconsciously remind him of his brother (who is a friends if so I can't really get into him). He also was given a variety of nicknames by the higher ups, like Corb, Corn chip, Corb on the Orb, or just Corn. Je

Corble is the result of Corb trying out human cloning. He has the same general appearance as Corbinian, but with purple hair (hence the name, because he's porble corb) that's styled differently. Since the experiment was technically a failure Corb was going to kill him, but Corble was really sweet and innocent and Corb basically went "well great guess I adopted my clone then". Corb stopped messing with cloning but adores Corble.

Might as well get all of my Lobotomy ocs out of the way. Oliver is the first Lobotomy oc I ever made, which is funny because I may or may not constantly forget that he exists. Oliver is basically a five year old kid in an adults body, and I mean that literally, because his parents basically locked him in a room and ignored him so his mental age is basically that of a kids. He's very mischievous and loves pulling pranks on people, most of which are harmless. Unless it's Corb, whom Oliver gates with a passion. Then it's thinly veiled murder attempts disgusted as pranks. He loves Fairy tales, and only works with fairy tale abnormalities because he panics with any other kind. Only one person in the entire facility can even put up with him, and that's Mabel.

Mabel is trans lesbian who can find the good in almost anyone. She's optimistic, bubbly, and has a great sense of humor. She tends to get really flustered around women though. Is it obvious I kinda projected onto her a bit? Because I did. If she wasn't in Lobotomy she'd definitely be a streamer. I'm just now realizing I basically made snapcube before I knew who that was. Whoops.

Up next is Adam! Adam is quiet, nervous, and honestly just prefers to not be noticed. Their ability to almost seamlessly blend into thier surroundings is astounding. Most people (me included) tend to just forget they exist. Which honestly is funny because they end up dating the loudest, most cocky person in the entire facility. Adam loves horror movies and spicy food.

Kieth is the loudest, most cocky person in the entire facility. He's the adopted son of a sephirah and the leader of the Rabbit team so that much is unavoidable. He's quick to anger, blunt, and tends to underestimate other people. However, he's also loyal to a fault, and willing to back his friends up no matter what. He feels like his mom's are expecting him to live up to expectations that he can't (and that they don't have but he doesn't realize that), so he's constantly throwing himself in harm's way to desperately try to prove to them that they made a good investment by adopting him or die trying. His two passions in life are collecting weapons and tending to rabbits, two of which he managed to train to sit on his shoulders and attack people. Despite being total opposites he loves Adam very much and will endure any horror movie with them, even if he's a huge scaredy cat.

Damien doesn't gave that much development, unfortunately. He came from a very religious household, moved out, and frequently gets possessed by an abnormality who makes him act like a cryptid. Totally normal stuff. He also went to law school.

Zephyr is a very, very serious individual. They've got a completely monotone color palette, speak either in short, blunt sentences or long, fanciful paragraphs with no in between, and tend to come off as cold and stiff. They're completely devoted to work, which is how they managed to become a captain. Despite this, they're very kind and caring, but unfortunately rarely get to show that side of themselves unless it's with Jamison, thier partner, both in crime and in the romantic sense. They also have a love/hate relationship with Owen, basically openly hating his guts but also enjoys thier banter and would hate if anything genuinely awful happened to them or his family.

Jamison is the complete opposite of Zephyr. He's an open book, very colorful, and tends to slack of when Zephyr isn't looking. Not on purpose, he just tends to get distracted most of the time. He's quite popular because he's very cheerful, which is rare in the higher ranks of Lobotomy. He'd absolutely die for Zephyr, and us usually the one who patches thier wounds. He really doesn't like Owen and thinks thier a pain in the ass, but keeps that to himself most of the time.

Owen is..... Interesting. I kinda went buck wild with him not gonna lie. He's one of the oldest son's of the God of Nightmares and Fire, an absolute agent of choas, and a campy fashion nightmare. But... I love them. They're both unbelievably obnoxious and also very caring. He's the kind of character you'd love but also hate at the same time. He also ended up becoming the God of Death in one timeline. If he wasn't God they'd probably run makeup guru/cursed amsr YouTube channel. Honestly he'd still run those as a God though. Also gender is a toy store and Owen is a kid who broke in after dark and is running along pushing all of the assorted genders into a cart while laughing maniacally (they use any pronouns but I stuck to just he/him they/them for this little snippet)

Alright, Lobotomy ocs done. Up next is.... Ugh... Octavious. He's originally a Danganronpa oc, the shsl gossip, and he was made to be a villian and by God does it show. He's the most fake, back stabbing, two faced character I've ever made. He's also the most one dimensional, which was actually intensional. He has no personality beyond being a petty, lying bitch, so when he runs out of lies and rumors to spread he goes into an existential crisis about how he has virtually no identity until he makes some new lie up about some random person. He's also abusive towards his younger sibling Aspyn, whom he has both physically and emotionally scarred. And, the icing on the "fuck this guy" cake, he's incredibly obsessive over his "wife" Melissa, who wants nothing to do with him and never even dated him, let alone married him. Basically he's a horrible, lying, abusive stalker. He also dresses exclusively in eye burn pink since the most poisonous bugs are usually brightly colored. Fuck Octavious, all my homies hate Octavious.

Next is Melissa, who honestly wasn't much better before her arc. She was raised to believe that in order to truely succeed in life, you have to ensure others fail. She, unfortunately, took that advice to heart. Get arc consisted of learning that we all can succeed together and that actively fucking other people over just made her an awful person, so she changed her behavior and tried to help people from then on out. She's incredibly meticulous, organized, and really smart. She still has issues trusting, but she's getting better. She has a crush on Octavious's younger sibling, but absolutely despises Octavious.

Aspyn is a quiet, caring individual who has no confidence both due to Octavious and just how they were raised. They are an incredibly skilled doctor, however, managing to perform amazingly in several different fields. They are, however, very defensive about thier passions, quick to insult anyone who questions them, mainly due to Octavious. They have a huge crush Melissa, but is to afraid to ask her out. Also they wear an eye patch because Octavious messed up one of thier eyes.

Hooo boy where to start with Edward. He's really inconsistent between universes, but the main constants are his power (he can trade bodies with people), him and Max getting together, him being a huge bookworm, and somehow he usually ends up being my self inserts dad???? Hos other aspects tend to change. Sometimes he's a power hungry megalomaniac who's trying to take over the world and will crush anyone and everyone who gets in his way or isn't useful to him, using his power evily to stay young forever by trading bodies with his kids and killing them when they're in his body. Other times, he's a fairly calm, if not a little cold, man whos biggest crime is the occasional tax evasion, who's power is more of a curse, causing him to stay alive forever through a series of unfortunate coincidences. Either way he's fun to write

Max is one of my favorite characters. He loves baking, his friends and family, he isn't too bright but no one holds that against him. Unfortunately, no matter which side of Edward it is, he's hopelessly in love with him, which can lead to his downfall. He's very protective of his cousin Heron, and tries to protect the innocent, which he usually doesn't end up doing thanks to evil Edwards manipulation. I also somehow failed to mention he's a plant man and flowers sprout wherever he walks and he can control plants but I couldn't find a good way to fit that in naturally.

Heron is half a plant man, in the worst possible way. He has rose vines instead of blood, which feels exactly how you think it would. Magic keeps his alive luckily, but it's unbelievably painful. Most of him and Max's family died when they were young, and unlike Mac who ended up on the streets, Heron ended up in an orphanage, where he learned at a young age that he shouldn't get close to anyone because if he does, they'd die. He genuinely believes that, and the only person he thinks is immune, is his cousin Max, who he even still expects to drop dead. Heron mainly fights by breaking his skin so his vines will grow rapidly and trap and kill his attacker, which looking back is uh. Kinda symbolic. I didn't do that on purpose but it fits

Eden is an angel, who was outcasted from heaven after being framed for a crime they didn't commit. They don't understand how humans work, but is trying thier best to fit in. He's one of the few beings Heron trusts, and even still Heron doesn't trust them much because of Eden's ability, being able to control holy flames. Eden is stoic and aloof, with an odd sense of humor. He insists that him baking using his holy flames is a form of training. Despite them claiming to be above human emotions, they very much are not above them and he is actually quite emotional.

Avocado is one of Herons old friends, who fell victim to Herons "luck" (aka they died). They are a drider (basically spider centaur) who came from a large family of drider thieves. They are very quiet and kind, which they use to thier advantage, since one would thing they'd steal small objects from people's houses or pickpocket them, which Avocado very much does. While they're fairly weak in combat thier thieving skills are not to be underestimated.

Grape is Avocados older sibling, and they are very serious and quite rude. Grape wants to kill Heron to avenge thier sibling, but ends up getting caught robbing the wrong person and ends up having to join the person's kids adventuring party.

Apple is the oldest drider sibling, and ends up taking a motherly role for all of the younger kids. They had to grow up incredibly fast, and has to make all of the hard decisions in place of thier dying father. Desperately needs a break.

There's more spider siblings but there isn't much info on them

Both Sherry and Theodore Poser are mainly just there because I have them really fun designs and don't really have a personality. Sherry's kinda hard to draw though

[strawberry-sundaze]

Hello! May i please have a MHA matchup? I’m a bi 18 year old 5’9 thin girl with curly brown hair and hazel eyes. I’m antisocial, and closed off to most people. I have a sarcastic and dirty sense of humor, and i’m childish. I love to playfully tease people. I’m a gryffindor, and quite stubborn. I’m very independent. I get jealous easily. My hobbies are shopping, singing, exercising, reading, and baking. I love anything to do with horror. I also wear sweaters 24/7. Thanks in advance!!

YES, of course you may!!  ^ω^ I like that you included your Hogwarts house~ also I picked up slight Yaoyorozu vibes from you, which I love love love. Thank you for asking!

Your (aged up!) UA student match is...

Shoto Todoroki!

This is SUCH a good boy!! Your independence and stubbornness would drive him insane, but in the best ways possible. He would think you are so gorgeous. Your dark hair and hazel eyes reel him in. Sho also loves that you’re pretty tall! You + Shoto would be...

Unstoppable. For someone as talented and beautiful as Todoroki is, he certainly doesn’t act like he knows it most of the time. He likes people, but he isn’t the most social person, so he’d understand not wanting to be around them all the time. Although he is tough to read on the outside, Shoto would probably share his thoughts if you asked, making him the perfect blend of quiet and communicative. I imagine that you got along so well because you both would sit/stand away from the crowds and action when in public places. You empower him, excite him, keep him relaxed; it’s so perfect and more than he could wish for. Shoto would do his absolute best to return the happiness you give him tenfold. 

Super active! Shoto would always want to do things with you! He’d love to take you shopping or out for soba. Since you like exercising, Shoto would also ask you out on workout dates! Go cycling, jogging, swimming, to the gym to lift weights with him, whatever type of exercise you enjoy doing most! If you like yoga, he’d even be willing to try it out with you. He’d love to curl up with a book with you. If you’re down, Sho may even love to start a little book club, just you and him, of course. PLEASE wear sweaters with him, thank you,, He wouldn’t always get your dirty jokes, but some of them are bound to land. Sho would BLUSH. Secretly likes being teased

The “it” couple. Every girl knows that Shoto is the most attractive boy at UA, even if he has no idea. Many would be supportive, many would be jealous, but neither of you really care. You’re just there for each other. Todoroki would be oblivious to your jealous streak at first, but once you told him, he would be almost painfully blunt with all the other girls. He is so loyal though, you honestly have nothing to worry about.

Some UA simp: “Hi Shoto~, I have some studying to do, I was hop-”

Sho: “No. (Y/n) doesn’t appreciate you asking to hang out with me one on one. I can’t tell if you are flirting. If so, please don’t. Thanks.” 

Lol okay have a pro hero. Please take her! It is...

Ms. Joke! (Emi Fukukado)

I know, I know, she most definitely isn’t an introvert, BUT! My favorite couples have personalities that complement each other rather than ones that are exactly alike, so here is why I see this being a match:

Although Ms. Joke is a happy-go-lucky, somewhat obnoxious, very enthusiastic lady, she obviously takes a liking to those who are challenging to get a laugh out of. She can be childish as well, so there would be plenty of room for playful banter between you two. Joke would have so much fun being poked fun at, and she’d tease you right back! One of the most interesting things to find out about her is how she would react to your sarcasm and dirty jokes. Would she laugh? Would she be surprised but still try to play it off? A speechless, blushing mess beyond all recovery? I like that one because not many people can catch her off guard.

Emi would be so affectionate! She would live for your hugs, hold your hand, anything you’d be comfortable with. She’d pull you off the couch, twirl you around, and suggest a fun date for the two of you! Joke has odd taste in fashion, but you can’t tell me she wouldn’t enjoy shopping with you. Emi would beg you to sing. She loves to hear your voice, and music brings her joy! Oh! Also, please bake with/for her. Sometimes she’d take it seriously, other times... good luck. Emi would be trying to throw flour at you or dab batter on your face. She would always help you clean up, though and sample anything you made.

Joke would take pride in getting to know you. All giggles aside, she knows you don’t open up easily. It makes her feel so special that you chose her back. She adores everything about you from your stubbornness to your sweaters. Emi may even go as far as to read/watch something scary with you! Honestly, she’d probably laugh at herself getting scared (or you if you were scared) before cuddling up close to you, silently thankful that she ended up with someone so wonderful.

And finally, your MHA villain match. For you, I picked...

Twice! (Jin Bubaigawara)

I ~love~ Jin. He can often be confusing; his words and actions lead others to misunderstand him or his messages, but Twice really, REALLY has a big heart. He has quite a few struggles, but who doesn’t? On good days, Jin is so much fun to be around. On bad days, just show him some extra compassion, be gentle and patient, and he will proceed fall head over heels for you. 

Wow, he did not realize he had a thing for you until it smacked him in the face. Seriously. You were casually playing volleyball with Toga in the LoV lair when Twice arrived. At first, he was alert, seeing as there was a volleyball flying around the lair, but then he let his guard down after watching a few clean passes. Shigaraki told you not to play inside, but he left to do something else...of course neither you or Toga listened. Toga being the devil she is decided to spike the ball. “AH!” The volleyball awkwardly caught the side of your arm as you shanked it. You watched in terror as it flew through the air and smack into Jin’s forehead. 

Twice: “Hey!” 

Y/n: “Toga!! Ugh. I’m so sorry, Twice. Are you okay?”

Twice: “Uh... yeah, I’m fine--not one bit!”

*Y/n goes to examine his head and Jin is just  s t a r i n g  at y/n because they are so close and wow have they always been this beautiful??*

Although he wouldn’t admit it, Jin likes when you are jealous. It makes him feel desired. Don’t get him wrong! He wouldn’t ever intentionally do anything to make you jealous, but if you did ever act possessive of him, he would melt on the spot. Twice hasn’t really ever had anyone want him like that... of course he’d treasure it. Every little thing you say gets locked in his head. He will never forget the compliments or sweet nothings meant for him. Your dirty jokes and sarcasm? Jin would think you’re hilarious! If you decided to tease him, he would probably pretend to be wounded by your words. Truthfully, however, he thinks it’s so much fun to play around with you.

Jin loves that you always wear sweaters. You make them look so good! And sweaters with those curls of yours? Ooh! He could just eat you up. Jin would hug you from behind and give you many, many forehead kisses please kiss his stitched up forehead, too. Twice would constantly daydream about you and come up with things to say to you for when he sees you next. He loves hard and is extremely devoted. Oh, I almost forgot! Jin would ask you to bake for him whenever you had free time. He mostly just wants to sit down and watch you work your magic, but the end result is pretty fantastic, too. 

I hope you liked it!! Glad you asked <3

The Capricorn Man                                            

Never underestimate a Capricorn man. He may appear tame and content, placidly mulching through his share of hay. But behind his docile stance, his brain is working overtime. Tie a goat up and he’ll find a way to chew through the rope, vault over a fence, then trot away to whatever destination he has in mind. You can’t keep a good goat down, and a Capricorn man is known, for good reason, as the overachieving workaholic of the zodiac.

Ambitious, determined, and practical – these traits sum up the Capricorn personality. He is happy to tread along a brow-beaten path, climbing steep hills and weathering nasty storms, as long as he knows that triumph awaits him at the mountain’s peak. He wants to get to the top to reap the rewards. The benefits of success are fame, prestige, money; the name of the game is perseverance. His attention to detail and patience stand him in good stead in the process of getting to his goals.

Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, and this may influence the Goat towards being patrician and authoritarian. The Capricorn man may rock the boat a little on his way to top goat, but rest assured none of it is personal. He is risk averse, preferring to play it safe than to lose all his stakes in one round. He often adopts a mature, serious demeanor that goes hand in hand with his focus on achieving.

The Goat is extremely down-to-earth, preferring reality above madcap ideas and outrageous dreams. He is a traditionalist, and can be rather reserved with new acquaintances. You won’t find a Capricorn man dancing on bars or organizing an impromptu trip around the world. He’s more the sort to be CEO of the multinational entertainment company that owns the bar, and would have an entire itinerary planned in fifteen-minute time slots for an around-the-world trip, completed a year in advance.

Love, Sex, Romance, and Relationships with a Capricorn Man

Like most other things in his life, the Capricorn man treats love seriously. He is not a flirt, nor a player. He believes in true love and will wait patiently for it, and when finding it, will work hard to keep it. He has high standards and will admire from afar before making his move. It will either be a determined move towards happily-ever-after, or a decisive move away to better pastures. The Capricorn man does not waste time with mind games. He is a closet romantic, deep, deep down underneath that thick hide. However, he would never allow this to influence any of his decisions when it comes to love and relationships.

A Capricorn seeks stability. He wants a steady relationship and he is a devoted partner, as long as there is an equal split share of work and costs. After all, he works hard for his money  – why shouldn’t everyone else? Having said that, the Capricorn man is only too happy to look after you, and he will make sure that the bills are always paid on time, and the rent is never behind. He will be a source of support and strength to his partner, and the role of protector comes easily to him. He is unlikely to be fickle or unfaithful, as he has weighed up all his options and made the right decision, so he simply does not have a reason to stray. A long-term partner and steady emotional commitment are all this goat asks for from life.

The Capricorn man may surprise you in the bedroom, turning from tame goat to wild satyr in the space of time it takes you to turn the lights down low. In between the sheets, he will apply the same attention to detail he demonstrates in the boardroom to lovemaking and can be surprisingly passionate if and when he loses his inhibitions. He’s not a fan of role-plays, massage or fantasies  – the Capricorn is more of a “do one thing, and do it well” kind of lover, which makes for an extremely satisfying experience for his partner, as long as they don’t expect candles, drama, and ornate costumes from him. However, a Capricorn man is very interested in pleasing his mate, who may be able to convince him to let down his guard and indulge in some fantasy.

He is generally considered most compatible with Taurus, Virgo, Pisces, and Scorpio. 

Understanding Capricorn Men

Practical and reserved, the Capricorn man is a hard-working, down-to-earth person whose foresight has him thinking in the long term. Unfortunately, his disciplined behavior can slow a budding relationship– but once committed, he shows himself to be a worthy catch.

Logic will rule this man’s day, but there is a fun side to the Capricorn man once he relaxes in the company of friends and family. He finds it difficult to lose that reserved outlook, so you’ll never find him making a fool of himself at any social event. Even the more outgoing Goats have a somewhat guarded manner, as they are usually exceptionally aware of how they are coming across. However, he is very humorous and often in a sarcastic way, and has an interesting take on the world.

Patience is a strong point with the Capricorn man and he’ll wait however long it takes to get what he wants. He is loyal, thoughtful, and essentially kind-hearted.

Money & the Capricorn Man

The Capricorn man is practical and manages his financial portfolio with sensible, realistic investments. He plans well for the future and expects his retirement years to be comfortable ones where he can relax and enjoy himself without the need to worry about money. He is generally more concerned about future security than most other signs.

Owning a pessimistic attitude at times and skeptical attitude almost always, the Capricorn man is extremely wary of anyone promising quick riches for low-risk opportunities and will not open his pocketbook for any of these get-in-on-the-ground-floor invitations.

When you negotiate with this man, he will be difficult to read with his poker face and disciplined facade.

Fashion & the Capricorn Man

True to his earthy, sensible nature, the Capricorn man’s wardrobe will revolve around the earth colors of dark green and brown. Always conservative, but never out of style, this gentleman shops out of need and doesn’t necessarily enjoy the experience.

Whatever he buys for home or clothing, the man remains realistic and won’t squander money on unnecessary, impractical items. Jewelry might consist of an expensive, high-quality watch, but the remainder of his bling will be kept to a minimum.

The Capricorn man knows that you get what you pay for and won’t be dissuaded from buying because of price if he sees value for his money.

Relationships & the Capricorn Man

Friends and relatives may understand the Capricorn man’s lack of outward emotion, but this trait makes him seem distant and not easily approachable by others. Capricorns with an instant smile are the most approachable of the bunch, but even these Goats can subtly intimidate others, even without wanting to. It is largely due to this trait that Capricorn men often get involved with rather outgoing people who make the first move.

Capricorns can be reluctant at first in a relationship, possibly because he knows that he takes people to heart and any new relationship is a big investment in his mind. He is careful and cautious with his feelings so that partners might sense that he’s not giving it his all at the outset. Many Capricorns would rather skip the first stages of a relationship and get right to the comfortable stage, but of course that isn’t possible, so they go through the first stage motions.

Capricorns, in fact, don’t prove everything right away, preferring to build a relationship slowly and for a partner to gradually discover his wonderful traits. He might even put those things he is less confident about on the table so that he can get that out of the way. He doesn’t want to lead anyone on, and more importantly, he doesn’t want to disappoint someone he truly likes.

Some Capricorns need to avoid coming across as elitist. They can be very choosy and picky, and usually have very definite tastes, likes, and dislikes, but sometimes these traits are translated as snobby. Most Capricorns are aware of this and do their best not to speak in black-and-white terms.

The Capricorn man cherishes his close relationships and provides a logical resolve to any problem he’s asked to become involved in. This man will never steer his friends wrong and will be there supporting his partner through life.

Try not to expect the Capricorn man to flower his response to your question. Enjoy him for his finer traits rather than make him into something he is not. True, he rarely seems enthusiastic, but get to know him well enough, and you will discover his own way of expressing enthusiasm.

Romance & the Capricorn Man

Some Capricorn men spend so much time devoted to their career that they seem to put relationships second. Reticent by nature, the gentleman’s future partner will have to get around his defense system and prove they’re trustworthy before he’ll open the door to his world.

Despite his reserved character, the Capricorn man is far from being an unenthusiastic lover and will relinquish himself fully to a deep intimacy with the right companion. He’s a patient lover who understands the ways of pleasing his partner, so a night with him will always bring a smile.

Capricorn men are not typically big fans of PDA (public displays of affection) and very much prefer to keep their personal lives on the private side. Any partner of his should know not to gossip about him, argue in public, or otherwise attract negative attention.

Thinking and talking about something is not enough for the Capricorn man. If you haven’t shown results in the real world, then his heart cannot be engaged. He needs for a relationship to truly work in real terms, so he is rarely carried away by the fantasy of what might be. As well, it’s important for any partner of a Capricorn man to realize that while he is an emotional man underneath it all, he may not talk at length about what he’s feeling.

Health & the Capricorn Man

The Capricorn man will usually be a staunch, attractive individual in his own way, who walks with an air of confidence, even if he is not always feeling that way. He takes care of himself and can be a fan of diets, healthy eating, and exercise.

With his naturally skeptical outlook on life and a tendency to rationalize everything that happens around him, the Capricorn man must be careful about getting himself down in the dumps.

Career & the Capricorn Man

Ambition is a character trait of the Capricorn man and he thrives on excelling at whatever he does. Any unintentional coolness towards fellow workers is a by-product of his focus on his contribution and not because he’s unfriendly.

Hard working and diligent, the Capricorn man will do well as an investment counselor, financial analyst, land developer, teacher, or coach.

Not prone to outbursts of emotion, a stone-faced Capricorn man would make a good professional poker player! There are many Capricorn comedians as well.

HQBLOODSHED TASK TWO → PERSONALITY EXPLORATION

MBTI: ESTP-A (The Entrepreneur)

79% Extroverted

68% Observant

71% Thinking

54% Prospecting

67% Assertive

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” - Helen Keller

Entrepreneurs always have an impact on their immediate surroundings – the best way to spot them at a party is to look for the whirling eddy of people flitting about them as they move from group to group. Laughing and entertaining with a blunt and earthy humor, Entrepreneur personalities love to be the center of attention. If an audience member is asked to come on stage, Entrepreneurs volunteer – or volunteer a shy friend.

Theory, abstract concepts and plodding discussions about global issues and their implications don’t keep Entrepreneurs interested for long. Entrepreneurs keep their conversation energetic, with a good dose of intelligence, but they like to talk about what is – or better yet, to just go out and do it. Entrepreneurs leap before they look, fixing their mistakes as they go, rather than sitting idle, preparing contingencies and escape clauses.

Slytherin: 77%

Gryffindor: 65%

Hufflepuff: 19%

Ilvermorny House:

Horned Serpent: 44%

Wampus: 42%

Thunderbird: 30%

Pukwudgie: 28%

Patronus: Hippogriff

The hippogriff is a proud and dangerous creature. They are half eagle, half horse, the offspring of a horse and griffin. If your Patronus is a hippogriff, you likely have a demeanor that commands respect or else. You’ve been known to fiercely defend those you’re loyal to and lash out at those who don’t earn your respect. At the same time, you are capable of growing to love former enemies - after a bloody battle. (MuggleNet)

Alignment: Neutral Good

A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. The common phrase for neutral good is “true good.” Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias toward or against order.

Temperament:

Sanguine: 17

Choleric: 14

Phlegmatic: 13

Melancholic: 4

Your temperament is sanguine. The sanguine temperament is fundamentally spontaneous and pleasure-seeking; sanguine people are sociable and charismatic. They tend to enjoy social gatherings, making new friends and tend to be boisterous. They are usually quite creative and often daydream. However, some alone time is crucial for those of this temperament. Sanguine can also mean sensitive, compassionate and thoughtful. Sanguine personalities generally struggle with following tasks all the way through, are chronically late, and tend to be forgetful and sometimes a little sarcastic. Often, when they pursue a new hobby, they lose interest as soon as it ceases to be engaging or fun. They are very much people persons. They are talkative and not shy. Sanguines generally have an almost shameless nature, certain that what they are doing is right. They have no lack of confidence.

BDSM Test (Top Three) :

Switch: 98%

Switches like to… well, switch. Always taking a dominant or top position is not for them, neither is always taking a submissive or bottom position. Some prefer to switch with the same partner or partners, others have a dominant play partner and a submissive play partner, but in either case they do not fit on one end point of the spectrum.

Masochist: 82%

Masochists enjoy receiving (certain types of) pain from their partner(s), usually in a sexual context. Masochism is independent of pain tolerance: it is purely about the ability to enjoy (or get aroused by) certain levels of pain.

Rope Bunny: 78%

Rope bunny likes to be tied up and restrained, using rope and/or other attributes (chains, cuffs, spreader bars, etc.). Whether for sexual enhancement, for art or just for fun, they enjoy being totally at the mercy of their partner(s).

Rice Purity Test:

32

Enneagram Test: Type 3 (The Achiever)

Focused on the presentation of success, to attain validation.

People of this personality type need to be validated in order to feel worthy; they pursue success and want to be admired. They are frequently hard working, competitive and are highly focused in the pursuit of their goals, whether their goal is to be the most successful salesman in the company or the “sexiest” woman in their social circle. They are often “self-made” and usually find some area in which they can excel and thus find the external approbation which they so desperately need. Threes are socially competent, often extroverted, and sometimes charismatic. They know how to present themselves, are self-confident, practical, and driven. Threes have a lot of energy and often seem to embody a kind of zest for life that others find contagious. They are good networkers who know how to rise through the ranks. But, while Threes do tend to succeed in whatever realm they focus their energies, they are often secretly afraid of being or becoming “losers.”

Threes can sometimes find intimacy difficult. Their need to be validated for their image often hides a deep sense of shame about who they really are, a shame they unconsciously fear will be unmasked if another gets too close. Threes are often generous and likable, but are difficult to really know. When unhealthy, their narcissism takes an ugly turn and they can become cold blooded and ruthless in the pursuit of their goals.

Because it is central to the type Three fixation to require external validation, Threes often, consciously and unconsciously, attempt to embody the image of success that is promoted by their culture. Threes get in trouble when they confuse true happiness, which depends on inner states, with the image of happiness which society has promoted. If a Three has a “good” job and an “attractive” mate, she might be willing, through an act of self-deception which is also self-betrayal, to ignore the inner promptings which tell her that neither her job, nor her mate are fulfilling her deeper needs. Even the most “successful” Threes, who generally appear quite happy, often hide a deeply felt sense of meaninglessness. The attainment of the image never quite satisfies.

Soulmark Color: Gold

Considered a lucky color to have, the gold soul color is never short of achieving their goals and prospering. Analytical, intelligent, and cunning, the gold soulcolor is alluring to even those who aren’t their soulmate. You either envy them or hate them, there is no in between, and they’re fine with that.

This color has expensive tastes and chooses to live in the world of high fashion. They aren’t shy about showing off their achievements and wealth, and they often lose themselves in materialistic things. Bigger and better is their motto.

Gold soulmarks can seem shallow and judgmental to those who don’t know them well. They’re not afraid to cut nuisance out of their life and don’t put up with different opinions than their own. They are known to indulge in self care often, and they avoid things that stress them out as much as possible.

Always knowing how to get what they want, the gold soul color surrounds themselves with people who are not going to stand in their way. They are usually surrounded by a small clique of people designed to lift their spirits with praise. They are also clingy to those who make them feel good, and they are known for bending for those they deem important.

"OCTOPUSSY" (1983) Review

"OCTOPUSSY" (1983) Review While perusing some of the Bond forums, I have noticed that 1983’s ”OCTOPUSSY” is not highly regarded by many fans. Personally, I have always found this hard to understand or accept, considering that the movie has been one of my favorite entries in the Bond franchise for years. But after watching it recently . . . I still do not agree with its low standing among the fans.

”OCTOPUSSY”’s pre-title sequence is merely a little teaser about Bond’s attempt to sabotage a missile system in the Banana Republic (aka Cuba). It was light, humorous and filled with plenty of solid action. I particularly enjoyed the fact that what started out as failure on Bond’s part after he found himself captured by enemy soldiers, ended up as a success partially through the actions of the enemy, when they attempt to shoot down the Acrostar Mini-Jet he used for a quick escape. Although entertaining, the pre-title sequence has nothing to do with the main story, which involves a power-hungry Soviet general, a mysterious and beautiful smuggler/circus owner and a duplicitous Afghan prince. Written by George MacDonald Fraser, Richard Maibaum, and Michael G. Wilson, ”OCTOPUSSY” starts out in East Germany with 009 dressed as a clown and being pursued by a knife-wielding villain. The villain turns out to be a pair of twins (Mischska and Grischska) who want something that 009 has – namely a fake Faberge egg called Property of a Lady. One of the twins manages to fatally wound 009 with a knife. But before he can die, the British agent manages to reach the local British embassy and deliver the egg in dramatic fashion. James Bond is assigned to investigate his colleague’s death. The investigation leads to an auction at Christie’s where the real Property of a Lady egg is being sold . . . and Bond’s first meeting with the villainous Kamal Khan, his henchmen Gobinda and the lovely Madga. Bond’s investigations lead him to India, where he makes his acquaintance with Kamal Khan for the second time. He survives several attempts on his life and incarceration at Khan’s Monsoon Palace and eventually meet the mysterious Octopussy, who turns out to be the daughter of a former rogue agent whom Bond had met years ago. Bond’s encounters with Octopussy and Khan provides him with clues that lead back to East Germany and Soviet General Orlov and Khan’s plot to detonate a nuclear bomb on a U.S. Air Force base in West Germany. Fortunately, Bond (with Octopussy’s help) foils Orlov and Khan’s plans. Roger Moore returned for the sixth time as British agent James Bond. At age 55 during the film’s production, he struck many Bond fans as too old to be portraying the super spy. Personally, I had no problems with Moore’s age around this time. He still looked handsome and healthy enough to star in the action-packed spy thriller. And he portrayed Bond with a world-weariness and style that seemed to befit his age. Even better, he managed to retain some of that gritty toughness that he utilized so effectively in his previous outing, ”FOR YOUR EYES ONLY” . . . and retained his sense of humor at the same. Speaking of that humor, I usually have nothing against Moore’s humorous style (unlike many fans and critics). But I can think of four occasions when even I found it a bit too much: -Chase sequence in Udaipur with street performers -Bond focusing short circuit camera on Indian operative’s cleavage -The Tarzan yell during Bond’s escape from Khan’s Monsoon Palace -Bond using fake crocodile submarine to sneak into Octopussy’s estate Despite the extreme silliness listed above, I still found Moore’s performance satisfactory. I enjoyed his sense of humor during his encounters with the West German citizenry, while trying to stop Orlov and Khan’s bomb. And I admired his dramatic skills in scenes featuring the discovery of Vijay’s body and his romantic scene with Octopussy. But I was especially impressed by his acting in the scene that featured Bond’s only encounter with General Orlov. Maud Adams returned to appear in her second Bond film, this time portraying the leading female character – smuggler/circus owner, Octopussy. I cannot honestly say I would consider Adams to be among the best actresses that appeared in the Bond franchise. The nine years between ”THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN” (in which she portrayed the villain’s doomed mistress) and ”OCTOPUSSY” seemed to have shown no real improvement in her acting skills. But she seemed competent enough to carry the role. And her looks and screen presence certainly helped. The secondary female lead – Kristina Weyborn – portrayed Madga, Octopussy’s right-hand woman and personal liaison to Kamal Khan. Like Adams, Weyborn is a tall Swedish-born beauty with limited acting skills. And like the leading lady, she possessed enough looks and presence to carry her role. Although I do wish that someone had given her more lessons in performing martial arts on screen. French actor Louis Jordan portrayed Kamal Khan, an exiled Afghan prince who desire for a piece of the Imperial Russian treasure leads him to take part in General Orlov's plot to bomb a U.S. Air Force base and change the political landscape of Western Europe. Khan serves as the liaison between Orlov and Octopussy, who traveling circus/smuggling operation allows the two men to smuggle a nuclear bomb into West Germany. Like Yaphet Kotto and Christopher Lee before him, Jordan seems to be a doppleganger of Moore's James Bond - smooth, suave and very deadly. One scene in particular - Bond and Khan's game of dice at an Udaipur hotel - reflects the mirror image of the two men in a very effective manner. Not only did Jordan perfectly portray Kamal Khan's smooth style and sophistication, he did an excellent job of reflecting the Afghan prince's darker nature - especially his cold-blooded tendency to betray anyone who stood between him and self-preservation. Including Octopussy and his men. "OCTOPUSSY"'s cast of minor villains include Steven Berkhoff as the bombastic General Orlov, whose desire for completely Communist Europe and a higher position in the Soviet hierarchy sets off the movie's plot. Although I found his scenes with Moore, Jordan and Adams effective and subtle, Berkhoff unfortunately revealed a tendency toward hammy acting in a scene that feature a meeting between the Soviet premier and several generals - including Gogol. And when I mean hammy, I mean . . . ham served with eggs. Indian actor Kabir Bedi portrayed Khan's right-hand man, the silent and intimidating Gobinda. One of the Bond sites - "MI-6" Forum - stated the following about the character: "Kamal Khan's faithful bodyguard, big and tough but none too bright.". I do not know if I agree with that assessment. On second thought . . . I do not agree. Gobinda's flaw may have been that he was too devoted and loyal to Khan - after all, he actually obeyed the Afghan prince's order that he climb out of a plane in mid-flight and kill Bond. But less than bright? No, I do not agree. Gobinda struck me as a very observant and intelligent man. And the very handsome Bedi portrayed the henchman with a nice balance of intelligence and menace. In fact, Gobinda happens to be one of my favorite henchmen. Actors David Meyer and Anthony Meyer portray the knife-throwing assassins who killed 009, Mischka and Grischska. They did not say much in the movie, but both did a nice job of projecting competent and menacing killers. With the death of Bernard Lee in 1980, the character of M did not appear in "FOR YOUR EYES ONLY". The character returned in the form of actor Robert Brown, who began the first of his four movie run as the head of MI-6 in "OCTOPUSSY". Brown portrayed M with authority, but very little imagination. Personally, I think he was simply too young to be portraying an authority figure against Roger Moore, who was six years younger. Not until Timothy Dalton's tenure will Brown show that along with Lee and Judi Dench, he could also be an interesting M. Lois Maxwell returned as Moneypenny in one of the most amusing Bond-Moneypenny scenes in the franchise. The scene involved a 'Miss Penelope Smallbone' and Moore and Maxwell managed to inject a lot of humor and charm into the scene, as befitting two old friends. Desmond Llewellyn had once stated that "LICENSE TO KILL" was his favorite Bond film. Which does not seem surprising, since he had a strong role in it. But he also had a strong role in "OCTOPUSSY" and I could tell that he had enjoyed himself. Especially in the scene that featured his rescue of Madga and some of Octopussy's other followers. It seemed too bad that Q's embellished role in this movie seemed just as unecessary as his embellished role in "LICENSE TO KILL". General Gogol returned in the form of Walter Gotell. And he portrayed the Soviet KGB general with his usual competence. Tennis star, Vijay Amritraj made his screen debut as Indian intelligence agent . . . Vijay. Okay this is not exactly an example of original casting, but what the hell? He did a pretty good job, anyway. And he was rather charming. "OCTOPUSSY" marked John Glen's second time in the director chair. And like "FOR YOUR EYES", he did an admirable job. I have to give the man kudos for once again, bringing a touch of realistic grit in Moore's portrayal of Bond and in the franchise. Although I do feel that he made a misstep in allowing those silly moments I had earlier mentioned, in the movie. But I do wonder who had included those ridiculous little scenes? Was it Glen? Moore? Or were the screenwriters - Fraser, Maibum and Wilson - responsible? If the writers were responsible, it was a misstep on their parts. Otherwise, they created an admirable script. One of the scenes highly criticized by critics was the sight of Bond disguised as a clown to infiltrate the circus where the bomb was located. I never understood their criticism of this disguise. Perhaps they disliked the idea of James Bond dressed as a clown. If so, I find their attitude extremely shallow . . . and rather stupid. Also, I wonder why George MacDonald Fraser had been included in this project? Was it because he was a British Army veteran who had served in India? Or that he had incorporated his experiences in India in his Harry Flashman novels? I do not know what to admire more - the screenwriters' creation of the villains' objectives and Bond's efforts to stop the bomb, or Glen's direction of those scenes. Perhaps both. I wish I could say that I enjoyed the movie's theme song, "All Time High", which was sung by Rita Coolidge. But in the end, it simply bored me. However, I did enjoy John Barry's lush and exciting score. And I must commend cinematographer, Alan Hume, for the film's photography. His shots of India and the English countryside (serving as East and West Germany) made "OCTOPUSSY" one of the most colorful entries in the Bond franchise. Despite the low opinion held by many Bond fans, "OCTOPUSSY" remains one of my favorite Bond films. In fact, I consider it to be Moore's second best film (despite a few stupid jokes) and the franchise's sixth best. I give it . . . 8/10.

⋆ ◦ ° ☾ penelope mitchell + female + she/her — have you seen cornelia róisín vasile? they sure have been hanging out at the warehouse a lot recently. they are twenty three years old known as the renegade, and they currently work for the savages as a soldier, which they’ve been doing for eight years. a bisexual sagittarius, they are loyal + cunning, as well as ruthless + temperamental. shiny black restored revolver. an extensive knife collection. black nailpolish. 

Cornelia is the youngest of three, and was ever fated to follow in her fathers footsteps. While she came into the world as the apple of her mothers eye, owning a special place no one else could reach in her fathers heart, it was not until her brother failed his initiation that the pressure and sky high expectations fell to her. And Cornelia would rather die than to disappoint her father. So much so that when her mother died, presumably in a car crash, the little girl hardly shed a tear or spoke another word about her. While she never truly believed the story of the fatal car crash taking her mothers life, she never asked or questioned her death. Because deep down the fifteen year old already knew this was a hollow lie. She had overheard her parents fighting about her coming initiation into the savages, knew of her fathers burning desire to have her follow his legacy at the age of fifteen, and her parents were no longer in agreement. It was inevitable that her mother had to be taken out of the picture. Especially when she came around with thoughts and near intent of trying to make Cornelia leave the town with her.

With a strict upbringing with physical punishments when she stepped out of line with her father, Cornelia was the semi popular but also odd kid at school. She had weird reasons for being grounded or not being able to come home with friends or to birthday parties. This rarely bothered her as a child however, though she did complain some to her friends for show, and with the years she found ways to go to what she wanted and be with her friends if it really mattered to her, the consequences be damned. She was a headstrong child with her own opinions and a big mouth, as well as a wild temper. A temper that got her into a lot of trouble at school. There she lashed out at other kids and even teachers when they said or did something to set her off. Any insults would be met with fury, any negative commentary would be answered with a fist. All in all her fathers very firm hand was much needed, perhaps even more so as she grew into an independent teenager.

She was a mix of mean girl meets goth in high school, and while she hung out with the popular crowd for a bit, she was always a bit apart from them with her peculiar interests and different home life. Though as a girl from a prominent family she wasn’t entirely cast off and never ignored. She remained in the same circles as a lot of Valdez finest, including families with values and a certain hierarchy much like her own. The Caito’s and the Petrans. Experiencing a bit of a blah phase, Cornelia’s phone was her best friend from sixteen to eighteen and she would bring it with her everywhere, becoming increasingly difficult to reach, even during the annual Sunday family dinners. Not unlike most teenagers she had a bit of a rebellious phase, drinking, smoking and experimenting with drugs, though none stuck in the end. Her interests steered her on a healthier path bodily speaking as her work for the savages required her to be in tip, top shape. She’s always had interest most would find peculiar, such as her knife collection, an avid desire to train and spar, and a big love of weaponry in general, though mostly revolvers.

When her sister Marcelline refused to follow the path their father wanted for her, and was pretty much cast out of the family, Cornelia cut ties with her as well. She and Cornelia has an estranged relationship, not talking very often, mostly because she has little nice to say about their dad and Marius would be furious if he knew they were in contact. Despite herself though Cornelia is not able to close her heart entirely to her oldest sister, and she pays her a visit every other month to make sure she is alive and safe. Her other sister Daciana cut a deal with their father and was sent to New York to attend Ballet school at the age of ten. She and Cornelia has more of a relationship, though as polar opposites they don’t agree on much and bicker quite often when set in the same room. Cornelia loves both of her sisters though, and while they might not be entirely sure of it, she would walk trough fire for them. Just as long as she doesn’t cross or disappoint their father in any way. No matter what he always comes first for her.

Despite screaming matches, heavy expectations and a controlling nature to their relationship, Cornelia loves no one as fiercely as her dad, and she shares a whole lot of his ideals and values. She is fiercely loyal to her gang and has never wavered in her desire to work her way up the ranks within the Savages. it helps that her father was once second in command and that the family has close ties to the Savage leader’s family as rich established crime families who has a certain hierarchy.

Cornelia is a bit of a tomboy, turning into the son her father didn’t get, but this doesn’t bother her one bit. Neither does her work, which she devotes almost all of her time to outside of her family. she made her first kill at fifteen and despite being heavily shaken by it, she pushed trough and have since found herself feeling neither remorse nor guilt upon taking a life. She is ruthless and incredibly focused, and despite some of her crude attitude, very clever. She could have been an excellent mercenary had she not joined the gang; doing all her own surveillance, research and being a perfect shot. Not to mention she’s inherited and picked up her fathers skill with the knife. The violent streaks to her childhood has made her very good at taking a hit and she rarely lies down when knocked over, always the one to get back up and keep at it.

Her family is from Romania and she speaks both Romanian and Russian as well as English and French. Her father would speak only Romanian to her as a child and read Russian classics, which quickly made her multilingual. When the two of them want to keep their conversation private for any reason they speak Romanian to each other, and Cornelia is known to speak her mother tongue when she looses her temper, especially with her dad.

Her love life has been pretty absent, as she places all of her energy into her family and her work, though she does reserve time for her fellow gang members. She’s not a big believer in love and marriage, given her parents past and her professional view of family and affection. In her opinion the main reason to marry would be to further the family line and while she has every intention of doing so, she isn’t in any rush(much unlike her father). Attitude wise she can seem quite stand-off-ish and a little reclusive. She was never shown much affection as a child and thus finds it hard to display as an adult, but she is not uninterested in the thoughts and lives of others. Her humor can be a bit morbid, and her tongue can be both blunt and sharp, though she speaks quite eloquently. If you are a Savage she will listen to you and treat you with a certain respect, but if you are a Cobra one wrong word will infuriate her with violent and nasty interactions to follow.

Being raised into a family with deep criminal ties and a heavy sense of family duty, honor and legacy, Cornelia knows nothing is more important than her family and how her behavior and accomplishments reflects on them. While stubborn to the bitter end she hates disappointing her father and unless she strongly disagrees his word is pretty much law. She might year to do things her own way but she would never cross him without a good reason and she often feels guilty and like a insolent daughter if she does. Besides training and her work, Cornelia can often be found reading a variety of literature. And while fashion is no passion of hers, she does know how to dress well and to convey a certain image, so she is never seen in anything not presentable. She would never disgrace her family name and die for her gang, a true Savage patriot.

Cornelia is someone who knows much more about showing tough love and anyone close to her would have been on the receiving end of that.

Her lion tattoo is placed on her forearm close to her wrist in a medium, very visible size. She chose to place it there to make it visible for anyone to see, very proud of it as she is.

Detests wearing skirts and dresses as a tomboy she can wear jeans with everything.

She fiddles a lot, always with something in her hands as a cause of having a lot of restless energy. She was an active and restless child, and is an even more restless adult.

Her black nail polish is a nod to her goth days in high school and her way of holding onto the tomboy inside of her, even when she has to dress up and act differently.

Cornelia took interest in the family buisness from a young age and often accompanies her father to meetings and assist him with deals and paperwork. Sometimes she’s even allowed to go solo. As a child though she whined a lot about this, struggling to sit still and paying attention when being brought to the company offices.

I have a bunch of wanted connections on her blog which I am gonna post too, but please take a look if you’re interested :D

wanted connections could be either male or female, open to new and old members alike :) 

ride or die ; someone in the gang who she has become intensely close with and they share pretty much everything. both would die for the other and they have each others backs no matter what. 

forbidden taste ; before Cornelia knew they were a Cobra, this person and her met, dated, and were falling in love when they both realized they were from opposite gangs. Whether or not they parted on good terms, or Cornelia left them is open to interpretation. but the love is still undeniably present and each time they’re in the same room, they are drawn to each other, doomed to repeat old patterns of giving into each other, and then being reminded why they can not be together. 

the lover ; a civilian or Savage Cornelia has been seeing for a while. its not only sex but neither has taken the initiative to ask themselves or each other if this really could be more, and what that might look like. 

the ex ; a civilian. they were together for a while, but Cornelia broke it off, her job making the relationship difficult and making her feel like she had to choose one or the other. she never outright told them she was in a gang and she had to lie a lot to keep her work and gang a secret from this person. 

the enemy ; a Cobra she’s had more than a few run ins with. they loath each other and wishes for nothing more than the others downfall and misery. whenever they meet, they are big on insults, petty commentary and will do their outmost to sabotage the other. 

the rival ; someone in Cornelia’s initiation class who she had a lasting rivalry with. they were equally matched in a lot of diciplines and it bothered Cornelia to no end when this person beat her at something. while there is still some rivalry at times, she’s grateful to them for the challenge they provided her when she first joined the gang, finding their rivalry helpful and a stepping stone to becoming who she is today. 

the other mentor ; Cornelia’s first and lasting mentor would be her father, Marius, but this would be another person within the savages who has councelled and guided Cornelia as she fully embraced the gang life and took her work of a soldier for the gang in strides. they’re someone she relies on and frequently seeks out for help when she needs it. 

work out buddy ; someone, either civilian or savage who shares her passion for staying healthy and working out every day of the week. they’d meet up and train/spar/work the weights and such together. she enjoys being around them and they have a lot of fun together. 

PLEASE plot with me cause I would love any and all connections and plots and the likes!! :)

ROMANCE HEADCANONS !! →   repost, do not reblog !!

name :  Archer Ambrose Apollo nickname :  A. A., various dog monikers / insults, ‘good boy’ gender :  cis male romantic orientation :  greyromantic preferred pet names :  “good boy” [Giovanni only], otherwise not typically fond of pet names relationship status :  single, but pretty much married to his job favorite canon ship(s) :  Archer/Gio is basically canon, just completely one-sided. on my blog it becomes a bit more reciprocated. but yes it is obviously my favorite ship for Archer in general. favorite non-canon ship(s) :  this prick is kinda hard to ship with, at least romantically... and even in other ships his obsession over his boss or his work, or his shitty personality, tend to ruin potential ships / chemistry. still I love the idea of Archer involved (in a variety of ways) with the other TR Execs, with other team bosses / villains, gym leaders, etc. as long as the other individual isn’t a protag + is an adult, there could be potential?? IDK opinion on true love :  basically this. “love”, in the romantic sense, is not something Archer has ever felt and can only really say it exists because other people show what they ‘claim’ to be love. really he believes that most of the time, what people say is ‘love’ -- romantic, platonic or otherwise -- isn’t. then, “true love” in his mind doesn’t exist at all and is just a fairytale dream, or people placing way too much value and trust into an emotion that is bound to run out. opinion on love at first sight :  for the ignorant and delusional. lust at first sight, however, is quite common and he’s been the subject of it many times. how ‘romantic’ are they? :  not at all -- at least not genuinely. Archer’s perception and personal experience with romance is largely superficial, manipulative and one-sided, with him using the other party for personal gain. for Giovanni however, he shows his “love” with unwavering loyalty and passionate devotion for Team Rocket’s cause, rather than something as useless as romantic gestures. ideal physical traits :  physically fit (you don’t have to be a bodybuilder but he doesn’t like people who don’t take care of their body / health), hygienic, matured, good fashion style, scars ideal personality traits :  INTELLIGENCE!!! (the higher the better), wit / humor, CONFIDENCE / HIGH SELF-ESTEEM!!, creative, strong-willed, mature, cultured, likes dogs, loyal, -- basically the more like him you are the better unattractive physical traits :  too young / immature (basically anyone who looks questionably under 21), physically unfit or disabled (he’s ableist as hell; this doesn’t count if the person can ‘overcome’ their issues), excessive hair anywhere (aside from on the top of your head lmao) unattractive personality traits :  mental disabilities (again he’s an asshole ableist I’m sorry), stupidity or excessive ignorance, childishness, disloyalty, disobedience for the sake of it, dull / boring, not liking dogs, weak wills and low self-esteem, laziness, overexcitability / overemotional, “sensitive�� ideal date :  with Giovanni. it depends on the person honestly. he prefers “city going” activities so no hiking or the like. do they have a type? :  intelligent people???? also people with power / authority and self-confidence. average relationship length :  for as long as his ‘partner’ is of benefit to him or TR. he’s never been in a genuine two-sided relationship.

preferred non-sexual intimacy :  intellectual intimacy, if that makes sense; and expressions of loyalty / servitude (giving to Gio, others giving to him.) Archer also likes being able to look into someone’s eyes, them look back, and have a whole conversation take place without a word being uttered. commitment level :   already pretty fucking committed to Giovanni, at least in main verse. otherwise his level of commitment normally only extends as far as another’s usefulness. opinion of public affection :  when it doesn’t involve his boss, Archer doesn’t care about it one way or another, since it isn’t genuine to him. he may even initiate it just to fluster someone and amuse himself. with Giovanni however, he gets pretty flustered / awkward and doesn’t usually engage in the typical forms of PDA. past relationships? :   plenty, but nothing he was emotionally invested in. once his partners stopped being useful, they were disposed of. Archer also has semi-regular flings with people who are essentially his “fuckbuddies”.
