Peter Jackson should not have been such a p*ssy. If he wanted a love story, no need to invent a character.
Grow a spine and give us the Kili/Legolas you KNEW the world needed and deserved!

just need to share how much I dislike this post lol
people will fully expect trans men to put ourselves on the line for everyone else and meanwhile the only time they acknowledge our existence is to talk about how "low risk" we are (obviously untrue) or to volunteer us out as a community for potentially dangerous activist endeavors that they wouldn't risk doing themselves
"we need to get uncomfortable!" and what's actually being discussed is convincing a subset of the community to be uncomfortable on your behalf while you do nothing to show solidarity with us
#transandrophobia#also all it does is reinforce passing privilege#because the assumption here is trans men automatically pass so well that it's dumb to be transphobic against us#like what does this accomplish it's so insanely misguided#also the climate of reproductive rights in the US is a mess right now and telling guys who are potentially at risk in that area#to go rile up cis people for basically performance art#is a terrible idea#not even suggesting how you would go about this in a way that would keep the protestors safe#just being like GO DO IT BOYS LOL#and then being resentful when people point out how stupid this is#this person literally never even talks about transmasc issues btw#they've brought us up entirely Once and it was to imply we face no transphobia and should protest on their behalf#it frustrates me how disconnected the rest of the community are from our issues and they mostly ignore us then talk about us like this#if you're not capable of showing solidarity with us then just don't mention us honestly!#idc if you don't center us in your politics but leave us alone lol!#we're not your pawns or tools in activism we are a vulnerable community who faces much of the same problems as you

One trope that i find weird is that during batfam reconciliation fics, the batfam members use alfred as like the big red button to bring jason back, but i feel like that wouldn't actually work. at all.
Jason would HATE alfred after everything he did after he died. Canonically, it was alfred that made the "a good soldier" memorial case, bruce wanted it down but alfred insisted he keep it up, he was the one that gave tim the Robin suit THAT JASON DIED IN, and drove him to save batman and nightwing with NO training at all. He also helped keep up all the "jason was always doomed for a life of crime, and he was an angry child that got himself killed" narrative that was spun after DitF. Alfred pennyworth is batman's biggest enabler, and has stood by while bruce did all his bullshit, such as the whole UtRH arc, and RHatO #25, where he said that it was inevitable that jason would go back on the whole no killing agreement.
Alfred may care for all of Bruce's children, but his only grandchild is damian, as shown when he made him robin behind tim's back( the whole "dick made damian robin" thing is just to add to tim angst. Dick was infact against that whole shitshow). If it doesn't benefit bruce, his pseudo son/employer and landlord, he wouldn't give a fuck.
It's basically impossible to write a reconciliation fic at all without completely rewriting characters, especially jason and alfred. Jason believes that batman's mission is flawed and useless since he doesn't permanently stop crime, so he'd never fully give up killing, the whole reason there's a rift between him and bruce, and alfred isn't this doting grandfather that always sides with his grandchildren and bakes cookies and makes tea.
Also, one major thing the fandom forgets is that alfred is canonically a shitty father to julia, his bio daughter. He abandoned his own daughter for the waynes, he'd never prioritise bruce's children over him.
#jason todd#alfred pennyworth#anti alfred pennyworth#anti batfam#batman#enabler alfred pennyworth#honestly doesn't make sense for tim to like him either#especially after the whole birthday mission bullshit#he wouldn't trust bruce either honestly#there is so much potential for angst that is canon why do we need to weebify tim to a little baby during the attack on TT

Sometimes annoying your bratty husband with silly gifts will cause him to bluescreen unintentionally. It's fine, though. Just take advantage of his touch starvation with cuddles to override the issue. Any biting and hissing that follows is totally normal. You may then proceed with your usual goofy antics of sticking tape onto the end of his tail when he's not looking, no doubt leading to the massacre of half your followers. :]
Anyway.
I can't be the only one convinced that Narinder hates having stuff around his wrists after finally being freed. I Can Not.
#fanart#cult of the lamb#cotl#narilamb#cotl narinder#cotl lamb#True Devotion#comics#my favorite parts are the downgrade in quality on the background and also how i drew narinder progressively shittier in each panel :D#fun fact: i will never draw narinder in long sleeves - i am THAT convinced he hates stuff touching his wrists XD#i promise i will have at least one serious narilamb comic#honestly i will#but as much as i adore the potential for drama and toxicity and general obsessive devotion between these two#i cannot resist The Goofs (TM)#so most of my stuff is gonna be So Fukken Goofy lol

I think the comedy of Red Hood and Matches Malone both being known criminals is underutilized. I need fics where they are both working a job "together" but both are perfectly aware they are actually on different sides. They can't say that in front of the other goons without compromising each other's identity though.
So like they are both part of the same heist team. Jason has to figure out if Bruce is here to sabotage the mission or is just intel gathering. (It is actually a secret third thing: father son bonding.)
#dc comics#batman#jason todd#bruce wayne#red hood#matches malone#batfam#my post#dc#if this fic exists please tell me#or any fic with matches and red hood honestly#there is so much potential there that is being wasted#where are the fics in which every criminal thinks hood is matches son?#Hood hates it but they are also right#criminals also think Hood is batman's son which leads to the theory that matches fucked the bat#do you understand my vision internet

The Revenge burning down at the end of the season as symbolism for rebirth is OUT
The Revenge slowly being rebuilt overtime as symbolism for a relationship being repaired is IN
#ofmd#our flag means death#let.me.dream.with.ofmd#ofmd meta#i was honestly down#for the idea of the ship burning down#cause there is so much meta potential#but this would be SO MUCH COOLER#and beautiful in terms of meta

You know what I think is wasted potential? Gwaine and Lancelot being a comedic duo. Think about it, they're in so many ways opposite but they have the same core of loyalty and courage.
Lancelot's chivalry and goodie two shoes behaviour and Gwaine's disrespect and drinking on the job. 🤝
#Gwaine would probably do something like jokingly steal smth from Arthur or drink on the job#and Lancelot will be like “my lord excuse his behaviour#and gwaine will be like “Lancelot stop sucking up to the princess”#and Lancelot will double down because he is truly and honestly so proper and chivalrous.#And gwaine will double down and make a bigger mess since he's so purely chaotic and doesn't support the monarchy.#Just the.... Back and forth between them has so much potential#merlin#merlin bbc#bbc merlin#gwaine bbc#lancelot#merthur

The fact that this is a tag makes me. so happy, actually
#because yeah he does#platonic love guys#they're brothers your honor#damian wayne#tim drake#they have so much angst and fluff potential#they argue a lot but they would (and probably have. honestly) kill for each other#damian: *insulting tim*#someone else: *insults tim*#damian: *attacks them with a knife*#tim: so u do care#damian: shut up drake#remember that one panel where damian looked really sad and i dont remember why but tim hugged him and it was adorable

I wish they kept that glow emitting out of adora’s she-ra form from the early episodes, it made her look as inhuman and uncanny as she’s supposed to be. I really wish they went to the extreme with how the whole she-ra thing (the transformation, the power, the mantle, the history) must be so traumatising to adora. Being told that she’s other, an angel, a goddess. Incapable of error, undeserving of inferior human instinct like love or friendship, how she started to see herself like that too. How deification is still dehumanisation. I wish we saw more of etheria’s reaction to this myth come true, plumeria did it the best, they seemed as if to worship her, with offerings with the food and gifts, and asking for her blessing with how many gave her their babies and saw her as their salvation. I wish they gave us more of the she-ra herself.
#Honestly yes I care about all of that in relation to adora#But I would’ve loved to see more of the previous she-ra’s too#This whole concept has SO much potential and is explored way too little#Adora#she ra#she ra and the princesses of power#spop

The girls are plottinggggg
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wen chao#wang lingjiao#Realizing she was supposed to have an upper lip mole was a cold slap in the face. So sorry ma'am. I won't forget again.#They are evil dumbass 4 evil dumbass and I think we are all missing out on the sheer potential of the comedy between these two.#They have way too much power and are using it for the wrong reasons - which makes them truly great villains.#And when things don't go their way they become piles of whining sludge.#Wang Lingjiao is forever fascinating to me even though we only get crumbs about her.#She's a servant girl who's greatest asset is her beauty and her attractiveness.#Meaning she's had a life being in the gaze of people with significant positions of power over her.#I can't help but read her childishness and petty tantrums as someone who has finally been given the chance to not feel powerless.#If she was a more virtuous type we might 'like' her more but honestly...I don't think she would have survived to this point.#WLJ has only known power hierarchies her whole life. Probably accused of seduction before she even understood what that meant.#I love contrasting her with mianmian because they have similar(ish) backgrounds but different approaches to moving forwards#But WLJ's story is about flying too close to the sun and mianmian's is about going too close to the water.#Like the sea mist dragging her down into complacency - all the sect powerplays are mandatory to 'go along with' if she wants to climb-#-the social ladder. Yet she is the cautionary tale (and a foil to JGY as well) she leaves before sacrificing her own morals.#Mianmian flies away with her wings only slightly plucked while those who sacrificed everything to reach for the top crash and burn.

‼️MAJOR SHADOW GENERATIONS SPOILERS‼️
I need to talk about that final cutscene. I NEED TO TALK ABOUT THAT FINAL CUTSCENE.
I think the most important part of Shadow and Maria’s conversation here is its ending.
When Maria tells Shadow that “if fate draws us apart, I know I will always be in your heart” his first instinct is to fight it, to tell her to “wait” so that he can think of a solution.
But he hesitates. He allows himself to process her words, after all like Rouge said Maria is the only one who could ever talk him down, and it makes him angry.
He’s angry because he’s listening to her.
He’s angry because he knows she’s right.
He’s angry because he doesn’t want her to be right.
And most importantly he’s angry at himself, that despite everything, despite knowing that this is the last time he will ever see her, he can’t bring himself to watch her go. Not again.
So he sprits off and doesn’t look back, immediately focusing himself on the task Maria has encouraged him to peruse. To help his friends. And the task he promised Maria he would undertake, to follow her wish for everyone to be happy.
I think deep down he knows that includes him too, and chasing after something he lost so long ago will only make that impossible.
He’s finally moving on and it hurts him. But he takes it head on like he always does.
Yet this time he lets himself cry. He lets himself hurt. He lets himself heal and let go.
He’s going to be ok now. Even if it hurts. He’s going to let himself move on now.
Because he knows now, without a doubt, that that’s what Maria wants for him.
#The story of this game was actually beautiful#i did not expect a sonic games story to hit me as hard as it did#this should be a good standard for the franchise moving on#there’s so much potential with these characters and this story and it’s amazing to see them utilising that#i honestly think shadow was written the best he’s ever been here#the game and dark beginning did such a good job of making me care about shadow and maria and their dynamic#i loved it#sxsg spoilers#sxsg#sxs generations#sonic x shadow generations spoilers#shadow gens spoilers#shadow generations#sonic x shadow generations#sonic the hedgehog#shadow the hedgehog#shadow#shadow and maria#maria robotnik#story analysis#ark siblings#sonic team peaked with this one

the reason why transfem elias is my favourite theory for gwendolyn is because think about the implications.
so let’s say this alternate universe reveals that elias is actually transgender, and would present/identify as female if they had the opportunity to figure themself out and transition (elias was reportedly very young when jonah possessed them)
then the idea that in the tma universe they not only didn’t live long enough to do that, but THEIR BODY WAS TAKEN OVER BY SOMEONE ELSE WHO THEN PRESENTED IN A MASCULINE WAY AND LIVED AS A MAN USING THEIR FACE AND BODY FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS?!? FUCKING TERRIFYING
as a trans person myself, even though the real elias was dead the dysphoria that idea gives me is absolutely unreal, and really creeps into serious body/existential horror territory which i think would be really interesting and very in-character for a writer like jonny to explore.
#idk how they would explain her not being voiced by ben meredith but honestly it’s whatever i like this idea too much to think abt semantics#it’s just so horrible#the freaky friday trope was never something i could even entertain happening to myself#because someone else looking at my body!! and having control over it!! and potentially wearing feminine clothes and makeup and aaahhhhhh#i hate it#it’s a very interesting and nasty horror concept to me#transfem elias is real if this doesn’t turn out to be canon i will probably write it#the magnus archives#tma#the magnus protocol#tmagp#elias bouchard#gwendolyn bouchard#jonah magnus

I STAND FUCKING CORRECTED AND I WILL ISSUE MR. BRIDGERTON A HAND WRITTEN APOLOGY, THIS WAS NOT A ONE-SIDED BEEF
This edit here has opened my eyes bc I wasn't paying attention to Debling at ALL during this scene. There was an acknowledgement that they both wanted Pen, Debling here thought he was the winner. Debling was the first to interrupt rudely in the middle of a conversation, breaking an important moment, Colin was just more scansalous about it when it came his turn, interrumpting them mid-dancing
The way he looks at Colin both times, I thought he was just polite the first time but nah, he was smug, Colin sweety I'm so sorry I gaslighted you, you kinda had other valid reason to dislike him😭
#you could argue debling couldnt know colin was about to confess but be so fr look at the way that man was breathless and leaning down#not anti debling bc I just fkund his smugness on his eyes in this scene interesting cant believe i never noticed#i saw another clip the other day of when debling ask pen who should he ask for her hand and imo he looked like he wanted to kiss her before-#he caught himself#im a he may not have loved her but he sure af wanted her thruther#im also a debling would have fallen for Pen in time but Pen would never grow to love him as much as she lived Colin thruther#pebling is a ship with so much angst potential honestly#pebling#polin
