#honestly I think if they both mentioned wanting to show people up for smthn at the same time. I think it’d all be downhill from there

[constehlla]

What happens when Foolish and Bad start to lose it together and they make each other worse by using the other as a feedback loop. What then.

[lowkeyrobin]

QSMP ; how much their eggs like you

includes ; tubbo & sunny, wilbur & tallulah, charlie & juanaflippa, quackity & tilin, jaiden & empanada and philza & chayanne

warnings ; language, mentions of parental neglect

AN ; I'm not like super into qsmp yet, so bare with me, ik most of them have like multiple parents/caregivers but I picked the ones I know the most about and the qsmp wiki is currently my life saver. the eggs are so cute so I can't not wrkte a little something about them 💔💔💔💔 I apologize bc this is gonna be so ooc... also ik juanaflippa and tilin died but ignore that

masterlist

TUBBO & SUNNY

Sunny is very iffy about you at first

"pa, who is that?"

"uhhh... that's y/n" Tubbo answers, "my partner"

she stares at both of you for a second like 🤨😒

they think their dislike of themselves of others is totally unfair and only relies on a select few people so trying to get used to you in a whole story in itself

tubbo, charlie, lenay, and polispol do their best to try and tell her "Hey they're cool, sunny, it's okay, they love you!!" but she won't budge

takes her a long while to accept you into the lil family but she ends up loving you

money is the way to their heart

if only anyone had told you sooner...

WILBUR & TALLULAH

tallulah instantly loves you

she's very quiet around you at first and hides behind will but quickly gets used to your presence

she's just a little anxious at first yk

"I love pa's new partner :3"

she loves playing the flute for you and talking about star wars with you it's the cutest thing

like you'll just be watching over her for Will or Phil and she's just so comfortable talking about her passions with you

Tallulah loves reassuring your builds and likes helping you as well, if you're unsure of how something looks, she's quick to reassure you that it looks good!

she gets you little gifts and shit it's the most adorable thing

her desire for validation mostly drives her kindness to you but she does actually appreciate you a lot

you seem to be there when no one else is and she frequently gives you 'I love you's and little flowers and stuff

she has abandonment issues so you make sure to always check behind yourself to make sure she's still following you

you refuse to leave her anywhere

always looks at you with a 😊 or 🤩 no explanation

she always refers to you as 'ma/pa' or a special nickname. like a syllable of your actual name or smthn, like something special for you two lol

you constantly tell and reassure each other that you're so awesome, great dynamic honestly

CHARLIE & JUANAFLIPPA

She's very quiet and reserved, but obedient

that automatic obediencey grew as a part of her and she just automatically accepted you into the family

although charlie and mariana were very negligent parents, she still trusted them and did as they said

you were the total opposite

it was what she wanted with you two, she has the freedom

you constantly argue w charlie over being a neglectful parent (character not irl)

she's very brave and courageous, and knows how to stay positive

you have personal beef w her parents bc they're such asses to her /hj

she loves guns.

she teaches you how to use guns as well

bonding time in the enclosure 🤞🤞🤞

she lived a short life but she's literally a part of you now

QUACKITY & TILIN

very sweet and caring but also chaotic and edgy

you showed her love and she CLUNG to you

"y/n is my favorite person, not you, pa"

they were always looking to give and receive love to/from everyone but quackity made it so hard for them

even after expressing being mad at quackity for not paying attention to them, they still loved him

shit broke your heart

he literally died bc of neglect from quackity bruh

constantly fighting w quackity over them being neglected :( (character not irl)

all they wanted was love man

you did your best to show her love and make memories with her since quackity clearly barely wanted to

quackity promised he'd be a better dad but uh...

towards the end of their life, they started getting depressed and stuff, you obviously noticed

you just laid on the floor with him, listening to all he had to say, just being there for him

anyways this is getting sad

they love you so much, tells you constantly that they love you and appreciate you

cutie patootie

JAIDEN & EMPANADA

em is very loving, instantly accepts you into the family, although a little cautious at first

you make her sweet foods all the time

absolutely loves you sm

always repays you with flowers or little treasures

"I got you flowers, ma/pa!"

she has a passion for baking with Niki, so sometimes you three (Niki and Em + you watching or burning the house down) have little baking days

jaiden just watching you guys be silly and do dumb shit like "I think I won with this one, guys"

you and jaiden spoiling the hell out of her LMAO

PHILZA & CHAYANNE

used to be more quiet but now talks a lot more

very energetic, your energies match perfectly

very responsible, looks over you if anything

he's always eager for adventure so you guys go explore often while phil and missa are busy

teaches you combat tricks and tips

literally a walking 'top 5 best combat tips and tricks' video I swear

he's very confident as well, likes to pvp with wooden swords with you

he always wins

you aren't even trying to let him win, he's just a god

I mean he's being raised by Phil and Missa so it makes sense LMAO

"I want pvp with y/n :("

"chayanne, they're not online, I'm sorry"

[petrichorium]

hiiii pluvi, nyla here! for your one piece and hq selfships: 💞, 📝, 🌦️ aaaaand 💌! thanks in advance! i'll have fun answering your asks too uwu

📝: How would your story in canon go? How would you influence the events of the original story?

Shanks — as of rn i dont influence the story tbh...... we'll have to re-address this in a decade when we get more red-haired pirates and after shanks dies KJHSDFJKHB but for now im just kinda lingering whenever theres rhp moments. my first appearance is the luffy wanted poster scene and i make a lil comment to mihawk (smthn like "always lovely to see you hawk-eyes" yk ambiguous enough), then im in the bg during the bit where rockstar calls shanks, im missing during marineford and then i show up during whitebeard/ace's funeral and im consistently w the red-haired pirates from then on. during the wano bit i finally get another line agreeing w lime juice after he mentions barto, then a passing goodbye to marco. im shown towards the side of the bar scene in elbaf reading a book and then im in the big wide-shot as theyre approaching the red force; the one "big" change is that im the one who hands the info on kidd off to shanks (bc that is Technically my official job as communications officer) and hongo and i have a tiny exchange. oda also talks abt me a bit in an sbs, he says im the only officer who hasnt met luffy and mentions im from a new world island, n says i joined the crew five yrs prior to the present

Kuroo — another one where i have minimal impact on the canon LOL but he and i r coworkers to lovers soooooo i only show up at the very end!!! i think im a recurring character in the final timeskip match chapters, i appear four or five times w the final time being w kuroo's appearance and described as his colleague. maybe later on theres an extra sketch of us grabbing a drink in our work uniforms and it sparks hella shippers

💞: Aside from with your f/o, who else would you commonly be shipped with? Why?

Shanks — i think any of the other red-haired officers is common but lime juice is the go-to for me simply bc of that one interaction in wano LMFAOOOOOOOO and then hongo later on for the elbaf interaction pfft. beckman is also a regular name in a "pair the spares" sense but icl i dont think hes ever spoken to me in canon (simply bc i do not have much screentime) & mihawk is also Somewhat up there again be of my one line. OH AND MARCO..... i think when he leaves the ship after wano he passes me and does an ambiguous hug/hand to the arm thing that has ppl like wtf was that 🫣

Kuroo — i think kenma bc im shown in the bg of a few of his shots!!! and i think theres a panel or two of me interacting w ushijima so theres a few instances of that...... theres like one super dedicated crackshipper of me and iwa LOL

🌦️: Would you be accompanied by mostly fluff or angst fanfics? Both? Explain why.

Shanks — ohhhh a mix.... i think whenever im involved its either relatively low-key fluff or a super in-depth character deep-dive. im often used as a catalyst for mishanks or shuggy or any manner of other m/m ships tho which means ig its angst for shuvi 😔

Kuroo — def fluff, but also a bit of angst. in a similar light a lot of fics im in have me being a catalyst specifically for kuroken, and there r probs just as many poly fics as there are of just me n kuroo, but by n large the Actual shipfics are cutesy work romance vibes

💌: How would your dynamic be portrayed? What might people focus on most? Any misconceptions?

Shanks — honestly the dynamic is varying bc theres just not much content of me or us interacting as of yet, just the tiniest bit of banter and then a very professional back n forth. shanks tends to be portrayed as Down Bad in ships so i think that is accurate, but i do think people generally overemphasize the captain/subordinate thing and a lot of the nuance wrt the nature of my joining the crew is not considered fully until my full backstory is discussed

Kuroo — sjhdfusbfv fuckboy kuroo my beloathed....... but i feel its not That bad. idk our dynamic is soooo Normal obvi its a v subtle ship/only vaguely hinted at so the specifics of our strangers-to-friends-to-lovers slow burn is not known,,,,,, i think generally the dynamic is far faster and not drawn out in fanon. people focus more on the working together, boss/secretary vibe (when i rlly quit my job right as we get together rip) and write us as having a very nuclear family i think.

send in some selfship questions!

[another-dra-anew]

Higa (- definitely someone you don't know yes yes)

I GENUINELY HOPE CANON HIGA EXPLODES I NEED TO PUT THIS DISCLAIMER UP. AAAA

anyways. nothing i can think to cw for/have been asked to cw for iirc? mentions of higas favorite hobby (committing hate crimes) but that’s abt all.

- My identity hc for them

homophobic homosexual. there’s nothing more to say- wait. sorry. he took the wrong red pill noooo higa no!!! okay now there’s nothing else to say

- Thoughts on their home life/family

now we start the fun game of how do i chat about my kids without spoiling things… ya know. okay. i think his paternal grandparents are actually p chill they’re just not even remotely involved bc they live vv far away. they’re a bit upset with tatsunori for never updating them. higa used to send them tickets to all his Big games but then he overheard them joking with tatsunori about how they were always traveling home just to travel back out again. so. he doesn’t send them tickets as often now

- How i feel about their canonical writing/handling

i think in a lot of early posts i wasn’t confident enough in my writing to make higa more of… a actual Issue? he was kinda just a dick who got shut down quick by everyone. so i need to go back and fix that. need to show his actions are like. Very Bad, and he def faces consequences.

- The one thing i’d want to make canon about them

uhh. well. u see. im kinda writing beta so. the only thing i can really think of is like… making canon “if (x) had happened to higa instead of (y), then he would’ve turned out like (z)”, since i can’t reallyyy… get into backstory changes like that? 

- My number one favorite ship for them

i think non despair red pill is fun!! (specify non despair because the kg isn’t really the best time for higas personal growth, which is smthn red pill kinda hinges on)- SORRY PEOPLE WHO ARENT IN THE SERVER? i don’t remember if this joke has breached contamination or not. red pill is yamaguchi/higa. 

especially in non despair (since side stepping away from others isn’t really a option in the game + kinda makes people feel homicidal), they both wind up kinda isolated/on the fringes of group interactions because they’re not just. abrasive but they say shit that actually feeds into negative stereotypes. so people r a bit. steps away from them. so should they both get the chance to grow and change they can bond over how hard it is to try and integrate into a group u were excluded from because of like. ur own decisions hurting people in the group. 

- …Now everyone else i ship with them

higa keeps hate criming people it’s kinda. hard to ship him with people. that being said i think it’s silly to say he has a bit of a crush on maeda. cuz i promise u all maeda, at best, is 😐 at higa. i don’t ship them together but i think the idea of higa having a crush on maeda is funny. it’s definitely not canon tho i don’t write beta with that in mind

- The thing i will NEVER ship

see above. god damn it higa. (not that u can’t hurt people and genuinely change and grow. but like. yeah i think a lot of those ships have kinda sunk). 

- a dynamic/relationship i wish was explored more (in canon, or in fandom)

hmmmmm…. i’d honestly like to talk more about kobas feelings on higa? specifically within the context of the game where it’s like. obviously koba doesn’t want higa to FUCKING DIE but while he understands the situation and knows if he felt uncomfortable or unsafe, he could say so and higa would get booted out. i think he’s just not very happy with the fact that they have to tip toe around higas general evil-ness so that he doesnt go off the rails and like. try to work with monokuma. he’s choosing so much mercy and so much emotional maturity. and that’s what sucks about being confined to one pov character!!!

- thoughts on their design (appearance-wise)

maybe if i stopped giving higa fits that are so easy to clown on, he’d leave his villain era. hm. anyways!! lol sweater vest lol. i do genuinely like his design (been gently working on kobas fit recently and giving them more distinctive color palettes, so that’s fun), buuut yeah! tbh i don’t see it changing i don’t know where i’d go from here. i think it works v well ! :D

- A music-related thought- a song that reminds me of them, or what their music taste is, etc

had to Hunt to find one. but animal - sir chloe makes me think like. a song higa would listen to, then close out of halfway through and never listen to it again but be haunted by the Thoughts it made him Think. im not good at interpreting songs the way they’re meant to be interpreted. :(. sorry to everyone behind sir chloe. 

[yomiurinikei]

Setsuka for the holiday asks please :)

yes yes ofc!! we love talking abt big sis setsuka on this blog

once again; defaulting to my weird non despair, ch6 age twist isn’t real, don’t think too hard about timing/logistics, au for this!

~*~

OKAY i don’t think she feels the festive spirit very strong, but i do think she encourages people to celebrate a lot? like, it’s not particularly dear to her heart, she’s not a fanatic for the season, but she likes to hang out with her classmates and encourage they all bond as a group, and this is a good opportunity to do things like that!

because of this, i can see her being fairly good at stuff like decorating gingerbread, putting up lights, and all those ✨holiday events✨, but that comes from all of her experience. she probably hosts secret santa for everyone who wants to participate (and gently tugs some more participants in), and honestly. i see her throwing a holiday party for the class, that checks out (someone keep an eye on the drinks if hajime is around- *is lifted to the top of the bell tower, smacks the bell, falls back down, getting sliced both ways, and then dying upon hitting the floor*)

i can see her turning on like… christmas hallmark movies, or christmas themed baking competitions, just because they’re seasonal and will only be on for a bit? like, just for the hell of it!! cuz again, i don’t think she has anything against the holidays… 

ultimately she’s a fan of getting a reason to try to celebrate and be merry with the people she cares about! i imagine she’s not… necessarily the best gift giver, just in the sense of she doesn’t have these amazing brilliant ideas, but she tries hard to find smthn personal and unique to show she cares abt the most important people on her list. she might not hunt down their long lost twin who they only mentioned once, while setsuka was 50 miles away, but she thinks long and hard about what the people in her life would enjoy, and the effort comes across!!

(setsuka has been instructed to not take hibiki on a sleigh ride pulled by yuri this year. she apologized, and went on record saying it was yuris idea)

TMB ending pt. 1 Analysis

I think Tomb of the Lost Queen is really fun, but it’s also super confusing. All of the character’s secrets play into figuring out the overall puzzle and there’s a lot of stuff that you can either miss or just straight up doesn’t make sense. I wanted to organize my thoughts on this to hopefully understand it a bit better, or at least understand what HeR was trying to get at.

Obviously spoilers, but you already knew that.

Edit: Just got done . This is only the Dylan portion because it turned out to be crazy freakin long. I apparently have a lot to say on the man haha. The rest I’ll do in seperate parts soooo be back later

I wanna start with Dylan. From what I understand, he is indeed a tour guide. However, being a tour guide doesn’t make him enough money, and so he decided he wanted to get in on the black market. I think he either was going to steal from the sites and then sell them to his connections, or use the connections to show people one-of-a-kind artifacts he obtained through the black market. Or maybe he’d use his tours as a well to sell the artifacts he found? Not sure. One of those. Anyways, he decided the way to do this was through Abdullah. That’s why he wants Nancy to say something nice about him to Abdullah, but I feel like this shows how dumb and inexperienced he is with all this because he has no idea what he’s doing or what he could get involved in. 

The way Dylan actually found out the site....okay. I don’t know much about this kind of stuff but are these sites always hidden from the public? i mean I guess I’d understand WHY but I was looking into going on a dig this summer through my college (rip that plan) and. All the info seemed pretty out in the open. Whatever. Anyways, the dig is suppose to be secret, so how did Dylan find it? When you ask him he mentions “some guys” took him and then asks you to drop it for both his sake and Nancy’s. My take on this is that he already does know a few people connected to Abdullah which explains how he even knows that Abdullah is shady in the first place, and they got him there. This circles back to Abdullah but more on that later. 

thanks to @naancypants help, I got the window to confront Dylan on the phone about everything, which is right after I talk to Jamila about everything and right before I unlock Lily’s trunk. Essentially he confesses that he isn’t really IN yet and wanted Abdullah’s help, but again, the fact that he already knows about Abdullah shows he knows more than the average tour guide. If you boil it down, Dylan needs money to keep being a tour guide and thought the black market was the way to go. Which c’mon dude, it’s not. worth. it. That stuff always turns out bad for you. Oh and pretty sure that stolen amulet was his, or Abdullah. I feel I should also mention the fake tour guide ID’s, which don’t make sense but I think he would just use them to show Abdullah and be like heyyy see I have connections with groups allllll over or smthn like that.

In the Dylan section I just wanted to bring up Nancy and Dylan’s dynamic. Now I don’t ship them idk I might but I overall just really enjoy their relationship over the course of the game and I really want him to come back in the future and for them to be friendos. I love how casual he is talking with her, they just seem to gel really nicely and honestly it cracks me up how he’s always so down to help you snoop through Lily’s stuff or just gives you crap he finds from Jamila. I think this shows a part of him knows that Nancy is trustworthy and capable enough to figure out what’s going on- he still was dumb enough to think she’d never find out about him bein’ shady but I think he was one of the few people (basically just him and Jamila lol) in this game that knew what Nancy is capable of, which i think is reiterated by the moment when you tell him you found Nefertari and he’s all like “Good job! Knew you could do it!” Also Nancy constantly being suspicious of Dylan and him just brushing it aside and saying something dumb is great- especially when shes like PROVE YOU’RE A TOUR GUIDE OR ELSE and he flat out gives her a fake tour haha. The fact that everyone suddenly calls him “your boy Dylan” to Nancy cracks me up, and also LET ME MENTION that he steps in front of Nancy and basically takes a bunch of boulders for her is wow. Basically without him doing that we wouldn’t have been able to solve the case and Abdullah would have gotten away with everything. 

Talking on the phone with him is a whole other thing, I feel so bad for him but his voice actor does a really good job of sounding half-dead lol and I keep picturing him and Jon being buddies for some reason XD And the final confrontation with him? Omg. I love it. Essentially: (I’m acting like you guys didn’t play this game lol I just need to recount this for my sake)

“what do you want me to say Nancy?”

“I want you to say no. And I want you to mean it.”

He goes into why he can’t do that because he “has to play the game to survive, there’s no other way” then SHE HITS HIM WITH:

“Only if you’re not good at playing the game.”

SO SAVAGE NANCY GEEZ THE DUDE IS ALREADY ALMOST DEAD

then we have the glorious bit of him pretending to hang up on her and then she calls him childish and he calls her cruel and she says its because HE DESERVES IT -wow nance pullin no punches!- and that he should:

“...spend your time in traction thinking about which person you want to be. The one you pretended to be with me, or the one you’re desperately trying to become.” 

to which he replies:

“I guess you’ll have to call me up once I’m all better to see which person I’ve decided to become.”

SO OKAY I recount all this merely because I love that portion of dialogue but I wanted to break down why. First, Nancy is pulling NO PUNCHES, she is hangin this boi out to DRY. I think this is because she expects more from him- she expects him to try and be better, which is something really cool with Nancy. She says she’s being tough because he deserves it, and I think it shows that she thinks he’s worth giving a second chance to try again. Nancy does this with a lot of people throughout the games, she confronts them and while is really tough on them, she does it because she knows they can do better wish they would have done this more with Henry but oh well. I’m not taking this from a romantic angle, you can if you want to, but I feel like she’s even more tough than usual on Dylan because she sorta...bonded? with him over the course of the game and that’s why it matter so much to her. I dunno I think I just love it so much because this scene is not only a testament to their relationship but also shows off something about Nancy that I really like. She calls you out on your crap but at the end of the day she wants to help you. She wanted to believe the best about Dylan, so now she’s giving him this chance to prove she wasn’t wrong. 

I dunno does that make sense XD Basically I really like Dylan as well as his dynamic with Nancy, and that was waaaay to long. But HeR I’d like some follow up cuz the end of the game really didn’t mention how she called him up later to see what he’d decided. 

Back later with the rest of the characters haha 

[starryace]

my personal introduction to vav

so i have a few friends who’ve been wanting to get into vav but dunno where to start so... i’ll just do this lil thing. obviously there’s gonna be my own opinions so don’t take everything i say to heart but like... here we go

vav (very awesome voice -- pronounced vee-ay-vee but i say vav bc im lazy) debuted in 2015, but when they debuted they had a different lineup. zehan, xiao, and gyeoul all left to pursue other activities. ziu, lou, and ayno joined the group in 2017! the fandom is called vampz because of the groups original concept but we don’t talk about that

title tracks/mvs: *under the moonlight | *brotherhood | *no doubt | *here i am | venus (dance with me) | flower (you) | abc (middle of the night) | she’s mine | spotlight | gorgeous | give it to me | senorita | **so in love | **thrilla killa | **i’m sorry | give me more

his room is dirty af i could NEVER

he does some really questionable things sometimes... see here.

like i said, i cannot express this enough... he’s so charismatic. so charming. so handsome.

also!! super hyper fluff ball. hims cute.

aegyo up the wazoo too

former happyface ent trainee with ayno

was in the fri.sat.sun teasers by dalshabet

can get p loud & annoying but that doesnt change how much we love him

idk if any of that made sense... but there you go! there’s so much more to vav and everything they do and who they are, so i hope this just kinda gets more people to look into them? it’s a stepping stone, not everything possible to learn.

+ keep in mind, a lot of this stuff comes from both kprofiles, what i’ve seen in videos, and my own personal opinions & inputs. so... yeah. don’t use what i say as truth/fact unless you see stuff to back it up (or you adopt it as your own opinion idk).

thank you for taking your time to read this!!

The Southern Raiders Episode And Kataang Zutara Katara

so a few years ago (i wanna say 2014? smthn like that) @irresistible-revolution mentioned wanting to write a meta about the southern raiders episode of atla and how it’s really about katara and not kataang or zutara. i’ve just finished the episode and i have my own thoughts on that so i’ve decided to get them out and dedicate the following meta/word vomit to her.

(also @gameofdooweeoo since u seem to enjoy my word vomits and @mythaelogy since u asked for content. i know it isnt the meta i was talking about, but hopefully this can tide u over until then.)

spoilers ahead obvi.

so, i think we can all agree that atla is a far more mature show than what is usually aimed at children. from the themes of war, imperialism, lost innocence, and compassion and the lack thereof (still working on that meta, gonna finish the show before i really knuckle down and get started on it), among many others, it’s safe to say that it’s an incredibly mature show, and an episode that best exemplifies that is ‘the southern raiders’.

quick recap: when they were still children, katara and sokka’s mother, kya, was killed during a raid on the southern water tribe to find waterbenders (the show only has katara and sokka say their mother was taken from them which implies imprisonment, which did happen to previous benders, but it’s far more heavily implied that she actually died. kinda weird how they kept that ambiguous considering all the other stuff that was included but eh.), and the raid was lead by yohn ra. years later, after joining the gaang, zuko offers katara, who still harbours hatred and anger towards yohn ra, a chance at revenge and closure. now, here’s where some of the shipping wars and conflicts arise.

full disclosure, i ship both of these ships and have done for years, so i never really focused on that aspect of the episode, however i can see why other people did.

i don’t involve myself in shipping discourse, but from what i’ve seen there are some zutara shippers (as well as non shippers) who say that zuko is helping katara deal with her emotions, while aang invalidates them. i would like to respectfully disagree.

in this point in time, zuko is still dealing with his own intense emotional trauma and learning to let go of his anger as well as trying to get katara to like and trust him, and he sees this as a way to accomplish the latter. he was raised in an environment that encouraged aggression and violence, and no doubt getting revenge would’ve been part of that. and i don’t just mean his homelife/childhood, but we’ve seen how society in the fire nation is also geared towards violence (as is typical of imperialist, warmongering nations, but that’s a meta for another day), so it would make sense for him to jump to that as a course of action. i also believe he’s living his own revenge fantasy vicariously through katara, he was unable to save his mother as a child, and perhaps sees this as a way to make up for that (even though he was, y’know, a child). this is not to say that zuko’s thinking was inherently wrong. his thinking and view of the world had been so thoroughly warped by that stage, that to him, getting an eye for an eye was more than fair for katara. he may have changed sides, but it takes far more than that to undo such intense cultural conditioning. his feelings and opinion on how katara should deal with her grief are every bit as valid as aang’s.

another moment for disclosure; i 100% agree with aang in this instance, no question. revenge is all well and good, but an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind and whatnot. one of the biggest messages of atla is how violence begets violence and that breaking that cycle is the only way forward (this will be further discussed in that ‘atla and compassion’ meta), and aang has shown this attitude throughout the series. despite the fact that he’s literally the most powerful bender in the world, aang has consistently shown to value non violent approaches to conflicts, as he was taught by the monks (who, as we all know, were based off buddhist monks). and when he tells katara he understands what she’s going through, he means it. don’t forget, he’s the last airbender, the lone survivor of a genocide. when he went to the southern air temple and saw the destruction, he was enraged and went into the avatar state over it. he carries that weight and anger and loss and grief with him every day, the same way katara carries hers. he knows this pain, knows it all too well, and he doesn’t want it to drag katara down. she’s a lively, vibrant, compassionate soul, which he (and myself and i’m sure many others) loves, choosing to exact revenge on someone, however ‘deserving’ of it they may be, could easily twist that. if she does it then, what’s stopping her from doing it again and again and again? and what’s to stop anyone else from trying to exact revenge on her? the cycle continues, the wheel spins, and nothing is changed. in the end he does concede that this is something she needs to do and accepts that, although not without some trepidation, because it’s about her and her feelings. and he’s right.

now for katara.

here’s the thing about katara: as a character, she truly is one of a kind. she’s a young woman (of colour) who is shown to be kind, loving, compassionate, friendly, and brave, all the good things a person should aspire to be. but the writers don’t try to kid themselves or us into believing that that’s all she is. she’s also ruthless, can hold a grudge like nobody’s business (obvi as a grudge is the catalyst for this episode), and possess a temper that is honestly rarely seen in a female character (ur fave could never, as the kids say). and that side of her is on full display this episode. the writers never once make katara seem ridiculous or vindictive or petty for holding onto this anger, they are totally honest about it. sometimes even kind, sweet people we love and hold dear to us are capable of extreme hate and violence, and we need to reconcile that. and we also need to deal with our grief and anger in our own ways.

the loss of her mother is significant to katara in ways that are different to sokka. this is not to say that losing his mother didn’t affect sokka, of course it did, but it was different for them both. katara had become the mother to both her and sokka (sokka himself said in ‘the runaway’ that when he tries to picture his mother’s face, he sees katara), which is a huge responsibility. there was of course gran gran and hakoda, but sokka’s comment is very revealing. katara and sokka lost more than their mother that day, they lost their innocence, and katara specifically lost her chance at girlhood. she had to, or at least felt like she had to, step up and replace her mother, a responsibility that was no doubt kicked up a notch once hakoda left for war (possibly another reason why she resented hakoda for leaving? discuss.). after all gran gran was an old woman, expecting her to care for two children, one of which was their tribe’s last waterbender, is somewhat unrealistic. and while there is a feeling that everyone in the southern water tribe would’ve pitched in and raised all the kids together, katara still felt the need to become the new mother (and considering sokka’s pre-series sexism, it’s unlikely he was a big help), while not knowing what to do. sure she would’ve learned from gran gran and the other women, but there’s more to motherhood, self imposed or not, than just tasks. there’s being an emotional support, a voice of reason, an example of bravery. being all of these things is taxing on an adult, nevermind a heavily traumatized child. yohn ra made katara grow up too fast. he ripped her girlhood away from her. it’s only fair she rips what’s left of his life from him.

when we meet yohn ra, he is far from the fierce raider commander from the flashbacks. he’s now an old man, living with his (implied to be abusive) mother, and tending to a garden. while he still displays some skill at firebending, it’s clear that he’s no match for zuko and katara, who in a previous scene expressed a willingness to bloodbend despite her reservations about it in ‘the puppet master’ (a prime example of just how fierce she can be). katara is able to stop some of the rain, creating a dome of cover for the three of them, after revealing that she was the last waterbender in the southern water tribe, not her mother. she creates a flurry of sharp icicles, all of which look like they could easily impale yohn ra, and throws them at him.

and then she stops. she calls off the attack.

yohn ra takes the opportunity to try and placate katara, admitting that what he did was wrong (was he sincere or just trying to save his ass? discuss.) and beg for mercy, offering up his own mother’s life (an eye for an eye). katara says that before, she couldn’t imagine why someone would do something like take away a person’s mother. and she says that she’s understands now.

‘there’s nothing inside you, nothing at all. you’re pathetic and sad and empty.’

it’s something that i’m sure many victims/survivors wish they could say to the people who traumatized them. you did this horrible thing to me, nothing you do or say can undo it or untraumatize me. you’re pathetic, sad, empty. you’re nothing. for katara, it’s no doubt a cathartic moment. throughout the years, despite not knowing his name, yohn ra was the monster that lurked under her bed. the shadows that seemed to move on dark nights. the nightmares that chased away pleasant dreams and sleep.

yohn ra cries, begging for mercy.

and katara grants it.

she tells him that as much as she hates him, she can’t do it. she can’t bring herself to take a life the way he did. yohn ra may be pathetic and sad and empty, but she is not. she has her family, her friends, her promise to aang to help him defeat ozai and end the war. a war that took her mother and brought her to that moment. she has things and people to live for and love, she has happiness and joy, she has fulfillment. she is not yohn ra. she will not act like she is.

i haven’t read any interviews/discussions from the writers on the episode that talk about why katara spared yohn ra instead of killing him. perhaps it was to help foreshadow aang’s show of mercy to ozai. maybe it was to keep katara’s status as a heroine and not have her ‘go over to the dark side’ so to speak. i don’t know, and to be perfectly honest, i don’t really care (death of the author babey!!!!!!). for me, this episode was about katara growing as a person, learning that exacting violence on someone for the violence they exacted on u (whether directly or indirectly) is never good and will not lead to a sustainable society. to kill yohn ra, despite the things he’s done, would solve nothing. her mother is still dead. she is never getting her girlhood back. and she would never be able to undo killing yohn ra. by sparing yohn ra, she showed the kind of grace and mercy that many real world adults are unable to show, and that’s extremely powerful. i can only imagine the kind of strength that goes into that kind of restraint.

she hasn’t forgiven him. perhaps, despite aang’s hopes, she never will. but she can learn to let the anger and grief go, and fill herself with other things, like forgiveness for zuko, and love for aang.

she will not be nothing. or pathetic. or sad. or empty.

she will not be him.

Megan Reads Oathbringer (part 10)

Hi, fronds.

I meant to keep going, I really did, but then That Thing happened and I was really upset and also a LOT of real life things happened, most good, but all busy, so. Bear with me. We’ll get through this monster eventually.

Part 10 encompasses pages 753-828 (previous parts)

I’m still super upset about the Rift, y’all. Like. Ultimate #yikes.

ANYWAY, MOVING ON

“That would give privacy to talk” Okay, but you are still in a public space with a bunch of other people, you maaayybe shouldn’t be, like...just using the king’s name casually like you’re besties?

Since this is supposed to be a stealth mission, isn’t it?

OKAY BUT ADOLIN JUST, UNPROMPTED OUT OF NO WHERE ASKING TO SEE KALADIN’S SWORD

SHALLAN PLS “It’s a little small” GURL PLS

“Kaladin liked them both...just not together.” I’m just waiting for someone to yell at them to get a room. Kaladin is the most likely candidate and I’m going to die laughing when it happens.

honestly, polyamory is the real solution here

Two Unmade.

which means we need two radiants to go fight them so Adolin WHEN ARE YOU MANIFESTING, MY BOY?

literally every time anyone mentions seeing a cremling--especially a weird-shaped cremling--I JUST GET REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE. WHAT IF IT’S 200-CREMLINGS-IN-A-TRENCH-COAT???

“But Adolin had been raised by a mother with a fondness for hugs” I’M SCREAMING THIS IS FINE I’M FINE. HE MUST MISS HER SO MUCH. HELP

wait, but don’t we know for sure that shardblades can be stuff that’s not swords? Like, didn’t Syl turn into a spear at the end of WoR? So maybe the Radiants DID make other tools for their followers--maybe they did have shardhammers for building and shardbows for hunting and shardshovels for digging latrines, but after the Recreance, the spren died, so they lost the ability to change shape?

Worth thinking about, anyway.

“Thank you for being you, Adolin.” “Everyone else was taken already.” BUDDYYYY. I LOVE HIM. HE’S SO GOOD AND WONDERFUL AND AAHH

OOHH, Shallan gets SQUIRES??? Somehow I didn’t really think that the Lightweavers would be one of the orders that had squires.. they seem a solitary bunch.

Kaladin just...scooting down to sit next to the highmarshal without an invitation is. listen, he’s always been brave, but this is a different sort of bravery--doing something that might get you in trouble with social codes is different from running headlong across a not-set bridge into battle--and I know he’s done shit like this before, often, but not...not really in context of military superiors? I don’T KNOW THIS FEELS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT AND I’M EXCITED FOR HIM.

I find it ironic that the COVERED walkway from the Oathgate platform to the palace is called the SUNwalk, but that’s fine.

Kishi is a really good name, dangit brandon stop taking all the really good names

Azure’s sword is a her?

YOU CAN’T JUST SAY THAT, KALADIN!! “How did you get here?” “I flew.” YOU CAn’T JUST. KAL, PLS

I’m

loev

hem

“I’ve given answers. If they aren’t the ones you want, perhaps the questions aren’t very good.” HELLO, I LOVE THIS BOY VERY MJUCH I DON’T KNWO IF YOU KNOW THIS ABOUT ME

wait come here chasing her

OH JESUS FUCK SHE’S VIVENNA ISN’T SHE

She’s from Somewhere Else and she’s got a weird sword and her name’s a color and Vivenna was SUPPOSED to show up in this book GODDAMNIT THERE SHE IS

heheheheheh gosh that’s fun

...............pleasant.

I suppose it is the HEART of the revel, after all...

I really, really didn’t sign up for a horror novel, idk why this keeps happening SIGH

You know you’ve watched too many shitty action movies when the first thing you can think of when a guy gets thrown off the city wall isn’t “oh god he got THROWN off a WALL” and is, instead, “I bet tehy’d have used a Wilhelm Scream there heh”

Listen, Kaladin, I know you CAN fight without flying, but you are currently fighting flying enemies, and you should absolutely go have an aerial battle with them, please, I just want you to be in more cinematic, badass fights pls.

OKAY, BUT MAYBE LAUNCHING YOURSELF OUT A WINDOW AT THIS FUSED GUY ISN’T THE BEST? WAY TO HAVE THE AERIAL BATTLE?

okay, I asked for this, but I rescind my request, BE CAREFUL BABE, PLS.

YES THE HEART

GO FOR THE HEART

YES

Y E S

“my red life” yah, ok, that’s definitely Vivenna NICE

hnnnngggg, every time Kaladin summons the sylbade and, like, does the thing where he rests her on his shoulder all casual and intimidating I just melt, I’m so

he’s so

and so

hnnnnnnnngggggg

mrrrghhh, OF COURSE There’s a gang that steals the food from Shallan’s informants and KILLS THEM EVEN THOUGH THEY’RE KIDS, uggghhh. Should have known.

Continues the trend of Shallan not really knowing anything about how life on the streets work, huh?

OK this lady with vine patterns in her skin who’s Soulcasting for Azure? Actual Soulcaster suffering the effects to way too many years Soulcasting? OR........Radiant?

Honestly, I suspect literally everyone of being a radiant at this point.

pffffffffffffffffffffffttt HOID

of course.

but why did he help? Why is he helping? What’s his game?

“She hadn’t lived on the streets and she didn’t know how to help people.” NICE YOU TO FINALLY REALIZE.

“The only way to live without failure is to be of no use to anyone. Trust me, I’ve practiced.” COOL, NOW I’M SAD ABOUT HOID. Listen, I know his books are sooo far off, but the more things he says, the more I want to KNOW about him. Argh.

“Many people have suffered more, and they got along fine.” Oooohhh, Shallan, honey. No one ever taught you that the fact that other people have it worse does not negate your suffering.

Also, like. most people have not, in fact, had it worse than you, really. In the grand scheme of things, having to kill both your parents when they tried to kill you sucks a LOT, despite your privilege making the rest of everything better for you...

GOD BLESS ADOLIN KHOLIN, WHO, WHEN CONFRONTED WITH HIS FIANCEE IN PANTS, REACTS ONLY BY COMPLIMENTING HER COLOR COORDINATION AND RECOMMENDING HER COAT BE TAILORED A HAIR BETTER.

BLESS THIS GOLDEN SUNLIGHT BOY.

“You’ve been wanting an army to attack your palace, Your Majesty... well, we’re ready.”

YOU MIGHT BE READY, BUT I’M NOT

DO NOT JUST GO INVADE THE PALACE WITH AN ARMY

GOD, HOW MANY OF YOU ARE GOING TO DIE

hi, Adolin talking to his sword still makes my heart swell, every time, he’s JUST SO GOOD AND PURE AND WONDERFUL

SUNSHINE BOY

HE PUT ON HIS UNIFORM

I’M

I lov hiiiiimm

it’s not Shallan that needs to drive this one back.

I’m still so enamored of this theory, I’m sticking with it even if it’s wrong, I don’t care. One Unmade per Radiant Order. It’s gotta be one of the boys this time. The Heart... Kaladin is nothing but heart, it’s gotta be the windrunner Unmade.

No one tell me I’m wrong, I will be SO DISAPPOINTED if it doesn’t go down this way.

OH SHIT

OOOHH SHIIIT

OOOHHHH SHIIIIIIIT

IT’S THE THING FROM THE COVER THE WHATSITCALLED THE ROCK MONSTER

OH SHIIIIIITTT WE ALL GON DIE

THUNDERCLAST, THAT’s the word phew glad I remembered

listen, Kaladin letting himself get smashed by a giant boulder just so he could Lash it away HURTS MY HEART

DON’T HURT KALADIN, 2K18

yuuuppppp it’s not a shardblade. Blergh, I didn’t finish Warbreaker, is there some wacky shenanigans with Vivenna’s sword? Does it pull the Breath from people or smthn? ...Do people on Roshar have Breath?

Adolin is SUCH ! A GOOD! COMMANDER!

.........I’m very glad that some of the palace guard aren’t evil, but. why did time move weird for them, apparently?

Is this the second Unmade? Is this one something to do with warping time??

I’m confuuuused.

oh

fuck

that’s

hot

GLOWING KALADIN WITH A TWELVE FOOT LONG SYLSPEAR, FLYING THROUGH THE THROWN-OPEN DOUBLE DOORS??? YEAH I’M F I N E, T H I S I S F I N E

nooo don’t split up

never split up

I don’t want this

Adolin giving Kaladin the Bridge Four salute. I’m cry.

oooooooooohh, Shallan summoned Pattern!! And she’s not panicking! I’m so proud of her ahh!!

Skar and Drehey just. continuing to save Adolin. Best bodyguards. Best friends. I love them so much.

mmmmmmmmmmm

I don’t

want this, this is intense this is A LOT

aaaaahhh fuck Kaladin’s wall squad came with. They are SO Going to Die, and I WI LL C RY

she’s singing? So... she’s... hm. What happened to the queen?

I STILL DON’T THINK SHALLAN CAN DEFEAT THIS UNMADE

ohnohecallshissonGav

I’m

ohnohecallshiswifeDearOne

I’m

Elhokar, please

you are so small, just. Be brave.

KALADIN, YOU MADE SYL KILL A SPREN??? I don’t care that it was an evil spren, that’s. You can’t.. Syl. Don’t make Syl kill her family, pls, I’m suffering.

oh no

what ancient spren, WHICH ONE, AESUDAN.

AND HOW

HOW DID YOU BIND VOIDSPREN TO PEOPLE

I’m assuming that’s what it is

I’M CONCERNED

Yelig-nar and Ashertmarn. 1. both of those are terrible star wars names, Brandon, you usually do better. 2. Are those BOTH Unmade? Or is Yelig-nar Aesudan’s...voidspren?

stormspren?

Ancient Parshendi Ancestor of Evil spren?

“I have taken the gemstone into me.” WELL, THAT’S A STEAMING PILE OF # Y I K E S

mmm yeah, no, she didn’t do it. Shallan didn’t defeat it, it retreated. Or was called away or something. We’re deeeefinitely going to have to deal with that again.

oh shit is this the other one?

this is the other one

Yelid-nar is Aseudan’s Parshendi Ancestor’s name. Sja-anat is the other Unmade.

I’m scared.

ON THE STAIRWELL? GoDDAMNIT THAT’S A TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE PLACE FOR A FIGHT

 no

n

o

don’t

make kaladin

kill his parshendi friends

please

oh fuck, Moash is with Kaladin’s parshendi friends, isn’t he?

damn, I AM NOT READY FOR THIS

yeah, no SHIT The heart fled. I TOLD you Shallan couldn’t defeat that one.

but why is THIS one helping her? OR IS SHE

WHAT IS HAPPENING

GOOD DON’T KILL EACH OTHER PLEASE.

oh Kaladin

“He’s always been able to trick himself into seeing a battle as us against them. Protect those you love. Kill everyone else. But...but they didn’t deserve death. None of them did.” HI THIS IS MY GHOST TYPING, I AM DEAD NOW. Kaladin has come so far, from scraping along, doing everything he could to breathe, let alone survive, and now--look at him. Look at him realizing that everyone, everyone is doing the same thing he is. They are all of them fighting to survive, they are all of them fighting to protect what they love.

Everyone is the hero of their own story, even if they are a villain to you.

God, this book is so literary, it’s so strong. Be better. Do better than those who have wronged you. See yourself in those around you, even your enemy, and do better. Take responsibility for who you are and what you do and who you fight.  God, THIS BOOK.

Also, Kaladin trying to stop the fighting, I’m crying.

THEY ARE ALL DYING. I TOLD YOU THEY WOULD AND I TOLD YOU I WOULD CRY AND HERE I AM. SOBBING.

noooo

no no nono

I’ don’t

want this

put it

back

I’m

Elhokar waS SO CLOSE OH M Y GOD HE

ONE MORE WORD OF THE IDEAL GOD DAMNIT

Moash

of course

he always wanted to kill the king

fuck

I knew this was coming because I got fucking spoiled but it still hurt like a punch to the gut

FUCK, HE KNEW KALADIN WAS THERE AND HE DID IT ANYWAY

god

f u ck

I’m

he knew. he saluted. he didn’t even pause.

DAMMNIT, MOASH, YOU’RE BETTER THAN THIS.

god, Kaladin screamed, I’m

not okay

So much for Kholinar, god

“If we engage the device, we’ll be caught in a disaster.” AREN’T YOU ALREADY

...sapphire is windrunners, right? so why is the epitaph.........it’s a sapphire recording. A windrunner. “Am I not supposed to want to help people?” Does that mean...what is the Fourth Ideal of the Windrunners? The order of people who help people. Why...would their Fourth Ideal...not? be about helping people?

UGH, the radiant recordings make me SO NERVOUS ALL THE TIME.

1. I hate Taravangian. A Lot.

2. Here’s a thing: Navani spent a whole book and a half thinking her eldest child was dead, but holding out hope she was alive, and getting to have that vindication when Jasnah showed up. How...how long is she going to hold out hope that Elhokar somehow made it out alive only to have that shattered when the rest of them show up and he doesn’t?

ALSO FUN FACTS, DALINAR PROBABLY NOW THINKS ADOLIN, ELHOKAR, AND KALADIN--THREE OF HIS FOUR SONS--ARE DEAD, PROBABLY, SO THAT’S FINE, I’M FINE.

EVERYTHING’S FINE.

OH FUCK IT TOOK THEM TO SHADESMAR

WHY

OH MY GOD

WHERE’S JASNAH WHEN YOU NEED HER, SHE CAN NAVIGATE THIS SHIT

also !!!! PATTERN AND SYL AND ?????? ???? ?? ADOLIN’S?? SPREN????? PLEASE SAY IT’S ADOLIN’S SPREN. HIS BLADE. WHATEVER. PLEASE.

LET ADOLIN HAVE A SPREN 2K18

god, Vivenna: HARD SAME, GIRL

also, I forgot that she would have had to have come through the Cognitive Realm to get from Nalthis to Roshar, but heeeeheheheh yeah. She knows what she’s doing here, or at the very least has an idea. Excellent.

but FUCK

SHADESMAR

AND EVERYONE THINKS THEY’RE DEAD

and dear fucking god, Moash, you’re better than this, why must you continue to make REALLY BAD DECISIONS.

these are my priorities

leave me alone.

[liarsweapon]

oh yeah a few people seem to not understand that a: the tags were a joke, and b: i dont explain things well, so for reference , here i will overexplain everything, and to the man in my dms that said i was abusing loki by being mean tonhim or smthn, youre blocked now so i cant help you but uhhhhh, idk how to abuse someone that’s not real bc mcu loki is not the actual norse loki irl and i think dis has abused him more than i can as someone who doesnt even write him so lol

i say ‘supposedly all knowing’ because the mcu kinda forgets hes all knowing when its convenient for him

im not counting hela as his kid bc eben if the film universe says it, she has always been loki’s daughter and in mythology she’s loki’s daughter, whether you hate or love ragnarok thats just a decision that was dumb, especially when odin already has a canon eldest daughter and her story and reason for wanting to destroy asgard before learning who she is makes a lot more sense than hela’s

you can love your kids and still be a terrible parent, especially where sdoption is concerned because a lot of adoptive parents dont eealize or care about the trauma they put their kids through. The novelizations, the films, the comics, they always try to show that Odin does whatever he does out of love for his children including loki despite comic wise he treats loki a fuck of a lot worse than the mcu odin does, he still loves them. apparently. He flat out mentioned to angela once that when technically as the eldest, asgard would be hers one day if she reintergrated. she did not want to and instead eventually became the queen of hel when her wife was taken by hel. Thor was meant to become king as asgard as the oldest, i don’t remember if its tbe same in the mcu or not but as the elder child it isn’t odin ‘choosing’ thor, its his literal birthright as the eldest assumed living child. Also why hela and ragnarok make no sense, and paint odin even worse than he paints himself. The only reason the title of crown prince fell to Thor was because Odin believed Aldrif (Angela’s birth name) was killed as a newborn.

The whole entire thing w Hela made no sense for nonreason beyond he, in the film universe (including novelizations and the books attached to the universe) involve him giving the kids a chance to ‘redeem themselves’. Him refusing that with Hela just doesn’t make sense with the character that they built him up to be. He’s extremely brash and harsh and makes the kids feel unworthy and all that, but he gives them the chance.

He yeets out of consciousness every single time he knows he fucked up, honestly i think thats just a parent thing either they yell and make you hate yourself or they knock off and pretend nothing happened.

Again, I say ‘supposedly’ all knowing bc the mcu and comics are fucking awful at proving it. Him not knowinf about Angela was explained away (badly but it was) as when he severed Heven from the 10 realms, he lost all sight of it. How he didnt know Angela was alive before that, we dont know, meevil explains nothing. Loki was, admitted by his birth father, tossed into the streets to die because he was born different. He was ‘tiny’, he was ‘a runt’, frosty didnt want him and left him to die. and whether odin says he found him and fell in love with him and adopted him so he wouldnt die, or for political gain, bc hes said both, and other things too depending on the world this man does not keep a straight mind, the reality is if he’s all knowing then he knew he would adopt loki no matter what. And he’d have known how he should have raised him. But they also like to change the definition of all knowing between works, because in some works its ‘all see wherehe sees all thats happening at once’ or ‘all see where he sees past present and future at once’, aka where my issue w ‘all seeing’ takes place, because they don’t even have a set definition to use for it, they do whatever is convenient for the storyline. I’ve worked in the entertainment industry for those unaware and I always hate when things are done for convenience rather then kept in a continuity. its just a cop out for me.

generallyif im sassily snarking loki, im also snarking odin, because Kenneth Branagh the genius he is, and Alan Taylor in all the bts he mentions bc dis frankensteined his film the way wb did jl, loki’s arc has mirrors to odin’s and he’s the one who acts most like odin’s actual son. They mirror each other in multiple ways and, it’s kind of dumb in a way because a truly loving parent in my opinion should try to help their kids not become raging genocidal douchebags, and odin just… doesnt. Arguably banishing thor stopped thor from doing it, but jane did the same for loki too. Considering Loki’s the one who planned genocide before thor was even banished, he all in all probably should have banished loki instead. The problem is if he did, the argument would still be that he was actively choosing to abuse the adopted son instead of his real son, despite his banishing thor was so thor could grow as a person bc thats such a great plan beardy, greaaaat job /s

also a good thing to always consider: i mostly just enjoy being a sarcastic pain in the ass, and 90% of the time when im sassing these characters im not even 100% serious. I’m just being a butthead, and i read my posts like Jennamarbles is saying it and its meant to be read in a comical way. Thats why i slash so many words to stay out of the tags, because i dont eant people getting all serious with me because they dont realize im just being a shit. its all in good fun, and i just like pointing out when genocidal people or terrorists are genocidal people or terrorists because fandom never wants to. they wanna blame all the issues on a random they dont like and pretend their main is a perfect goody good when the reality is, none of their decisions can really be instant forgiven and a lot of it should really stop being forgotten. all in good fun, again, but for the love of fluff saying someone who tried to commit genocide is just an innocent baby and everything is someone elses fault is why people like ted bundy have fandoms. i dont necessarily believe fiction = reality or things like that, but i notice patterns and i notice many many of the people who say loki should be forgiven for everything without working towards it and its all thor/odin/frigga/janes fault, a lot of them either love incest or wanna fuck a serial killer.

Redemption arcs, thats what people gotta think about. It’s hard to do well but even with loki it could have been done. Technically it was done via jane, everyone just ignored it. And since they ignore it, I take pleasure in poking fun at him for all the things he did pre A1. Notice I don’t ever poke fun at what he did from thanos abuse? I only specifically poke fun at what he did in thor 1. Easy mistake I know, because he also attempted genocide in a1, but a1 theres too many fandom factors and thanos factors to throw in so theres no point in even being concerned with that one.

He planned the genocide of the frost giants before he learned who he was. He planned to eliminate the entire race and still went partially throughhis plan after he learned who he was. ‘to gain his father’s love’ is a piss poor excuse when he saw what happened to thor when thor tried to do it after what Loki dod letting them into thor’s coronation thingy. Odin had a massively negative reaction to attempted genocide (ironic given how many times he himself committed genocide, but thats what double standards are) and banished his ‘golden child’. At that point Loki could have rethought his plan and chose not to, he wanted to kill his own species upon learning what he was because of self hatred (which is odins fault for teaching him that, that’s something i think most people can agree on)

all in all, my ooc posts are meant more or less as a joke, and my making fun of things i find dumb, as evident by my hundreds of ‘capcom please’ posts and thanesis jokes. It’s all a joke to me, but I’m sorry if I offended people, it’s not meant in offense I’m just pointing out that pretending Loki did no wrong when he and odin did the same shit is kinda dumb. Odin’s worse offense is being douchey to his kids, but you wouldnt get the stories you have if he wasnt. theyre vikings, this is kind of just how they behave.

also a note i realized tho i already deleted the og post bc too many randos were dming me and i got overwhelmed (it was maybe 3, im overwhelmed easily) but like i think the confusion actually was bc i was referencing the book and saying the worst thing odin did was being a prick to loki in it at the end, but i didnt specify i meant worst thing he did in the book, not in the entirety of everything he ever did, and because most people can’t comprehend how my brain works it just didnt come across right and that is my fault so im totally sorry for that part thats on me i did not mean odins never done smthn worse even to lola i meant in the book that was the worst that i can remember at the point i started talking about the book i forgot the rest of the media existed because i was not thinking about it, adhd brain, again thays my fault totally sorry about that confusion, but hopefully this explanation of all the things helps in some way

‘O/din choosing T/hor as King and loving T/hor more caused L/oki to behave in worse attention-seeking ways’ ….. i mean i guess thats a way to refer to genocide 😵‍💫

[tricks-up-my-sleeve]

For the Munday post! I hope I'm allowed three, sorry ^^' : ✍ ♡ ♫

((Don’t apologize!! I love the enthusiasm lol for future reference send as many as you want. Send the whole damn post. I probably won’t even flinch tbh.

✍ – what are some odd things that give you writing inspiration? any quirks?

((Honestly, I’m not sure if I have anything too out of the ordinary. Like, I’m assuming, everyone else, other media I’m into can inspire me, or events that happen in real life, whether they be small and insignificant silly things that I see that happen to remind me of the muse or just like.. big things that are kinda always there that I’ve always took inspiration from.

I don’t really think I have any quirks per say, but my favorite thing is when I get to use a lot of detail and I feel like it doesn’t suck. Lol.))

♡ – mention another mun that you care about a lot. why do you like them?

((Okay I refuse to pick just one. I’m really bad about expressing e m o t i o n s towards other people which is why I sort of tentatively stay away from the positivity posts - which I should stop doing. Bc I love so many people here gfdhkjkld; i’m also terrified i’m gonna forget someone so i’m just gonna do.. five people i’ve had conversations with very recently? yeah?? i really do want to tag all of my mutuals, though I CARE ABOUT ALL OF YOU SOOO MUCH.))

((@discordant-cacophony / @bristled-feathers k not only do I have fun interactions with both of Blue’s horse show muses but I swear, he just makes me laugh an ungodly amount and when he’s not being an ASSHOLE TO ME he’s actually kinda one of the best. vry nice. pls shower him with love thx. i always get genuinely excited to see him around bc blue’s the absolute memelord.))

((@gearsandwrxnches / @ilikekxtes - really just enjoy talking to fix about anything tbh not only does it usually end in hilarity but it’s just nice lol. also anyone who sees Dislestia art or smthn and decides to send it my way is highly appreciated because it’s the most thoughtful shit to me. ALSO rly love screaming about Starlight and Trixie and headcanons and what not bc what good horsies, together or not.))

((@madamenxgative / i’m not putting all of your blogs here fuck you - cam is super rad and super creative and I love it. also very fun to talk to. really impressed with the sheer amount of fucking blogs he has since they’re all quality but also concerned. we surprisingly haven’t had tHAT much interaction here since a lot of it has been on the discord servers and we’re both fucking bad with replies as discussed many times but i’m not gonna complain i am so there for the aria/trixie shenanigans.))

((@mylittlecuriosityrp - SPEAKING OF PEOPLE with a lot of blogs and muses but somehow nails all of them. lol. Ace is a funny sweetheart ok and whenever I get a chance to partake in a conversation with her it’s always rly nice. she deserves good things. you probably know that already tho but just a refresher. also thx for the trixie emoji. again.))

((@theprincessandhxrpupil - aaaaand Asxcala! also a complete sweetheart! fhgjkl; quite possibly one of the first few people I remember IMing on here and thankfully being like.. almost instantly comfortable talking to. because anxiety is a huge issue for me pfff;; but I’m so glad! again love screaming about Star and Trix with her and she makes masterpieces like this so.. yeah. I appreciate them very much. some of my favorite threads and conversations are with them. also nails like all the muses I’ve seen her write. so jealous of all of my friends here. wow.))

((agaIN I WANTED TO TAG EVERY MUTUAL EVER BUUUT YOU CAN PROBABLY TELL WE’D BE HERE ALL DAY. I’LL REBLOG A POSITIVITY MEME SOMETIME SOON TO MAKE UP FOR IT.))

♫ – any songs you’d like to share that help inspire your writing? 

((hmm… nothing in particular, honestly. I have a bunch of ship mixes for Trixie ships though. even have some collaborative ones with Cam. lol. if anyone wants links to those let me know since I’ve posted the Twixie/Trixcord/Startrix ones before, but music inspires me too much so I don’t think I can link just one or two songs. I listen to too much.))

8 question tag!

I was tagged by @princekangchani - thanks bub !!

Rules: Answer the eight questions and then write eight new questions of your own

1. Who is currently ruining your bias list?

NCT bias: Donghyuck and Mark

current bias ruiners: Ten & Taeil !!!!!

SF9 bias: Chani

current bias wreckers: Taeyang & Youngbin

2. What was the last thing you watched on youtube?

nct dream’s mfal mv (for the thousandth time) cause I loVE IT SO SO MUCH AND ITS SO CUTE IM GONNA VOMIT!!!!!!! FUCK IT, IM GONNA SAY IT: NCT DREAM ARE THE TRUE RULERS OF NCT!!! COME AT ME IF YOU WANT BUT YALL KNOW IT’S TRUE! NO PRINTER, JUST FAX!!!!!

3. Whats your favorite meme?

I don't have a specific pic that’s my favorite cause there’s way too many, but in general, I love the low quality pics of peoples “wtf” faces cause they can literally apply to any situation and they’re just so damn funny

4. Fave OTP?

(& when I say “fave otp” I mean like an actual bromance but rather my fave friendships!) but omg I have way too many to narrow it down to just one... there’s:

NCT - Markhyuck, Chensung, the Nominren triangle lol & Tenny (this ship doesn't apply to my statement above - Johnny and Ten are absolutely dating each other lmao)

SF9 - Jaeseong & Hwitae

5. Favorite picture of your bias?

These are no where near all my faves cause there’s just too many of those omg if you wanna see ALL of them then request a pic set or smthn.

Donghyuck:

bonus

Mark:

(as you can probably tell I clearly have a thing for dirty blonde!mark omg,,,)

Chani:

6. If you married your bias, do you think you and your bias will truthfully get along?

Mark: absolutely. I'm a very patient, understanding, and hella loyal person. if I care about you and you show me that you care for just as much, I'm in it with you til the end. idk what hardships we go through, I will always be there for you. and (not to pat my own back or anything) but I feel like thats the kinda person mark needs in his life. with his insane schedule, I feel like he really just needs someone that he knows will be there waiting for him at the end of the day, someone he can always rely on to love and look out for him, and someone he can always talk to and lean on... like me!! (mark if you see this, I love you and I'm free on thursday)

Donghyuck: hell yeah!! not to be an astrology nerd or anything, but he's a gemini and I'm a cancer (so theoretically, we’re not known to be very compatible with one another) but I’m not even kidding, we have identical personalities and I feel like we’d pair really well together! we both have a damn good sense of humor and I'm a very flexible and understanding person! and it’s no secret he’s a giant softie who tries to hide it with sarcastic insults but I'm very well known to break down such walls and I'll have this teddy bear wrapped around my finger in no time (; (who am I kidding - it’ll probably be the other way around but I'm fine with that bcUZ IM LOVE YOU, HYUCK!!!!! EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN BE A LITTLE SHIT (:(:(:(: !!!)

Chani: AND AGAIN - Yes! I swear I'm not just saying this because theyre my biases lol. He seems like such an awkward lil bun who needs constant reassurance and idk. I feel like we could be awkward together ((: it’d probably take us longer than any of the others because we both have that kinda sheepish, awkward personality, so neither of us can really rely on the other to help bring us out of our shells so it’s gonna take some extra time for us to naturally warm up to each other. but I feel like because of that, it'd make us a lot closer??? idk I just really love this squish //:

7. Favorite Girl Group and why?

BLACKPINK !!!! They portray themselves as such strong, independent badasses when really they’re the cutest, fluffiest, dorkiest girls known to mankind lmao. Honestly all 4 of them are just so fucking lovable and I just really love their attitude and take on the concepts they do!! not to mention their actual music is fucking B O M B !!!!

8. Where is your safe space?

My room (specifically, my bed) (’:
