#i can’t list them all

[usedtobethelegendcreator]

Every time someone says “Alastor is overrated”, a year is taken off my lifespan.

It’s a common occurrence, really. The popular male character with a lot of fans that may or may not think he’s hot always, always gets shat on. I’ve seen it. You’ve probably seen it too. And it’s birthed out of bitterness.

So, when people say “X is overrated”, what proof do they have?

“He’s a bad character!” Oh? In what way? Is he badly written? Do you not like his character arc (if any so far)? Do you not like his design? Do you think you could design him in a way truer to the creator’s vision of him? Do you think he’s just a bad person?

“He’s replaceable!” Is he, really? Could you completely remove him from the story and see nothing change? Could you, without changing the story, erase him from that story? Does his presence serve no purpose in that universe? And, even if he doesn’t, would his world be a brighter place without him in it?

“He has too much screen time!” Does he? Or do you just think he does? Is he one of the main characters? This other character has even more screen time than he does, are you going to complain about them too? Are only the protagonist and antagonist allowed to be on screen for any significant amount of time? Are you complaining about how many lines he has?

“Thirsty fangirls are sexualizing him too much!” Welcome to the internet. That’s what thirsty fangirls do. Have you never heard of Rule 34?

“He’s a bad person!” So what? Lots of characters are bad people. Duh. Not everyone can have sunshine in their hearts and butterflies in their eyes.

“He’s ugly!” You think he’s ugly. Hell, maybe his fans think he’s ugly, too. But someone out there is always going to be attracted to the unconventional.

“He’s a villain!” Wow, you identified the antagonist! You deserve a gold star! You must feel so proud! Now, can you tell me why people have been sexualizing the Devil for centuries?

“He doesn’t deserve the hype!” The hype had to come from somewhere. Did it come from the show? Did it come from the fans? Either way, someone thinks he’s really neat, and told all their friends about it.

“He doesn’t deserve to exist!” His creator sure thinks he does.

“He sucks!” Cock? Pussy? Both? Neither? A secret third thing? Either way, it’s none of your business, now is it?

“People ship him with everyone!” It’s okay, you can just say you’re jealous of how much he’s getting laid in other people’s heads.

“He’s cliche!” And? Every character is, in some way, a cliche. You’re a cliche. I’m a cliche. Everyone’s a cliche. But is he doing something interesting with the cliche?

And yes, a lot of these are things I’ve seen specifically about Alastor. But if you feel this way about any character, well, answer those questions. See if you make sense to yourself. Because there’s a difference between just not liking a character, and hating just to hate.

Gilmore girls boyfriend ranking (these are my opinions you are allowed to disagree but like don’t yell at me please I’m fragile)

1. Dave (my beloved has never done anything wrong in his life ever)

2. Jess (he screws up A LOT but he gains points for s6 and for being my little meow meow)

3. Morey (he serenades his wife daily, need I say more?)

4. Kirk (10/10 devotion will not even LOOK at another woman even if it mean crossing the street with his eyes closed)

5. Luke (I love him he waited EIGHT YEARS for her but he loses points for s6/7)

6. Richard (he screws up sometimes but he’s Emily’s no.1 fan devoted 4 life they’re made for each other)

7. Max (good guy had rizz but just not The Guy unfortunately)

8. Alex (it’s billy burke the only reason he’s not higher is we barely see him but he is good vibes and like the only guy we see get on with lorelai’s friends)

9. Jason (funny but not The Guy, plus kinda a snob. I like Jason though he’s entertaining, even if the idea of him and Lorelai actually having sex does not compute in my brain AT ALL)

10. Jamie (he was sweet and kinda deserved better tbh still a little boring)

11. Doyle (devoted and entertaining but a little boring at times - I wanted more for Paris)

12. Marty (we all know a Marty and I hate to say it but I think he’d be a terrible boyfriend and a bad kisser)

13. Jackson (mad points lost for lying about having a vasectomy that was not cool man)

14. Henry (he bailed on lane - fool)

15. Logan (I’m sorry but he loses SO MANY points for gaslighting those scenes trigger me so hard)

16. Tristan (he loses points for actual harassment but at least he’s mildly complex)

17. Zach (I hate him)

18. Christopher (no)

19. Dean (the hardest no)

20. Asher (die)

I’ve probably forgotten someone I made this in a fever dream like four months ago and decided to post it on a whim lol

Tina’s pov of purgatory 1 is required reading for fans of ALL teams. So many iconic moments (making the tea originally for Bagi, eating maggots in the snow, taking charge and hiding with Missa and Rivers when Bolas was hunting for easy pickings, her entire conversation with Mariana, her ongoing hatred of Fit, scary dog privileges, the rivalry with Cellbit, GG ninja’s betrayal, I COULD KEEP GOING) are integral to understanding not just SoulFire but purgatory as a whole, all found in her streams.

Plus, the after purgatory party segments hold a special place in my heart. The meta conversations with Tubbo and Bad over what it was like being the most hated team and how it felt for Bad being “the most hated player.” Then later with everyone in the call just playing games while Tina draws the SoulFire co-leaders or joins in herself. The vibes are fantastic and were a great cooldown after the high stress event. I can’t recommend her pov enough.

god!merlin

druids can NOT speak in people’s minds. when they are before a high priestess, they can pray to her directly and she can hear them (hence the scene between morgana and mordred when he spoke in her mind).

merlin who constantly has this buzzing in the back of his head that he can never understand besides the occasional odd word which makes no sense. but when he’s closer to a druid or when their prayer is super strong, then he can make out what they’re saying.

merlin who brings up the fact that druids can speak into peoples minds to gaius who casually unfurls a scroll containing his ongoing list of reasons why merlin is/evidence of merlin being a god of the old religion.

[adrift-in-thyme]

hello, sorry to bother you but i am very new to legand of zelda and i'm new to this whole link univeres thing. if you don't mind me asking, which link is which, as in which one is time or wind, i've been getting confused. also in order, who is older and who is younger. sorry to bother you.

Hi there! And welcome to the fandom! The Zelda games are just about my favorite thing ever and LU is so so much fun

Also no need to apologize! You’re not bothering me at all! I’m always happy to talk loz hehe.

I’m gonna put the rest of the post under the cut cause it’s gonna be long. Also I don’t know they’re exact ages so I’m just gonna go off of general vibes

(All image credits to @/linkeduniverse)

Time

Games: Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask

Description: The oldest in the Chain (no one knows his true age save for himself and Malon and neither are telling), this time traveling hero saved both Hyrule and the parallel world of Termina in his youth. In the process, he accidentally split the timeline into three. He carries a lot of baggage as a result of the many losses he has experienced, though he has found peace in his love for his wife Malon.

Warriors

Games: Hyrule Warriors (the first one)

Description: The only Link in the Chain who’s from a non-canon game (it’s canon to us), Warriors faced the horrors the battlefield when the evil sorceress Cia invaded his Hyrule. He may not have ever stepped inside of a true dungeon, but he’s an expert strategist. Though it’s not canon in LU, a lot of us hc that he knows Time from the war (Time was a playable character in the Definitive Edition of the game).

He is likely close to Twilight in age. These two are the second oldest in the group

Twilight

Games: Twilight Princess

Description: A ranch hand and descendant of the Hero of Time, Twilight faced the Twilight Invasion with Midna. With the shadow crystal he wears on a band around his neck he can transform into a fierce wolf. Really, he’s a big softy though. He adores his adoptive family in Ordon Village and is a big brother to the kids.

In LU Wild knows him because of the Wolf Link amiibo companion in Breath of the Wild.

Sky

Games: Skyward Sword

Description: As very first hero, Sky became a self-fulfilling prophecy when he dove from Skyloft to the Surface to save his best friend Zelda. Don’t let his penchant for napping fool you. As kind and empathetic as he is fierce and relentless, Sky is a trained knight and a master swordsman. He knew the spirit within the Master Sword and honed the weapon into the brilliant blade the heroes after him wielded against Ganondorf.

Wild

Games: Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom

Description: Once a stalwart knight with the weight of the world upon his shoulders, Wild perished during the fall of his Hyrule and awoke 100 years later without any memory of his previous life. (I take it back, Wild’s the oldest in the Chain not Time XD). A survivalist with a knack for cooking and a penchant for chaos (and feats of engineering), Wild is every bit as competent as his companions. However, he faults himself for the destruction of Hyrule and suffers insecurity because of it.

Legend

Games: A Link to the Past, Oracle of Ages, Oracle of Seasons, A Link Between Worlds, and Link’s Awakening

Description: He’s called the veteran for a reason. The last in the line of knights who serve the royal family, Legend’s done it all and more. He collects all manner of items and is ready for just about any situation. He has a passion for adventuring and takes pride in his station as hero. But his last adventure to the island of Koholint left him with a broken heart and regrets. He can come off as sarcastic and even rude, but he has a soft heart.

Though young, he is extremely capable.

Hyrule

Games: Legend of Zelda ‘86, Adventure of Link

Description: Born into a world ravaged by evil, Hyrule’s resourcefulness, courage, and stubborn resolve have taken him far. He is experienced with both combat and magic and can transform into a fairy via a spell. Humble and caring, he tends of underestimate himself despite his immense skill.

Four

Games: Four Swords, Minish Cap

Description: Collected and level-headed, Four excels at teamwork. This comes from ample experience during his adventure wielding the Four Sword which divides him into four. He is a smith like his grandfather. He possesses the ability to see the Minish, magical beings that can usually only be detected by children. Though still in his teen years, he displays maturity in his interactions with his companions.

Wind

Games: Wind Waker (maybe Phantom Hourglass and/or Spirit Tracks, as well??)

Description: He may the youngest of the heroes but he is nothing if not competent. Spirited, compassionate, and brave , Wind isn’t afraid to kick butt. The kidnapping of his beloved sister Aryll set him on a journey across the seas covering what once was the Hero of Time’s Hyrule. With the pirate princess Tetra, he defeated Ganondorf and saved not only his home, Outset Island, but the world.

does anyone else have a rotating list of f/o’s

like you’re obsessed with one for a while and then it naturally fades…but they’re still super important to you so you keep them in your favorites list for easy access any time you’re missing them or wanting to be surrounded by people who love you

[seagull-scribbles]

☔️ It’s time to loose your self loathing, excuse yourself, let hope in ♥️

[flowercrowngods]

i honestly don’t think anything compares to having your friends feel welcome and comfortable in your own home. that big smile on their face as they look around and you let them, feeling on display because they’ve never seen you like this, not really, and you wonder if they will find this lacking, if they will find you lacking. but they don’t. because they’re smiling and they’re complimenting you and you can watch a tiny part of them falling in love with this home just like you did the very first time you found it. when it’s all still a work in progress because it’s always a work in progress, but you’re both at ease now because this is your home and that is your friend and somewhere in the universe there pops up the thought that by proxy, this is their home as well if they so choose. for a while at least. for as long as they’ll stay.

i don’t think anything compares to your friends finding comfort in your home.

[dozydawn]

[supercalime]

Honest question, why do yall care? I mean, if it’s real, good for them but like, this feels so gross. I’ve seen how fans treat them like characters, they deserve all the privacy they can get, relationship or not

[wriokitty]

This whole day I have just been yelled at by patients on the phone for long periods of time one after the other I’m at my limit truly

[minusboy]

do you have any fic recs?

yes i do! here's a few recent-ish reads i really enjoyed. i've sorted them by length for you, but they're not otherwise organised or limited. (a lot of these are also rated mature or above so use your own discretion.)

this ended up being a lot longer than i originally intended so i'm putting them under the cut. this post also serves as my (un)official appreciation letter to everyone on this list. big fan ^_^ <3

>20k words all brutal mirrors cracked by intimatopia - started almost whimsical, then devastated me, then gently kissed me on the forehead 

close your eyes (soon we’ll me home) by @eratosword - made me cry several happy tears. god bless.

castles out of couches by halfbloom - an old favourite i keep going back to what can i say.

like bullets on skin by @littencloud9 - hands. soooo tender aughh..

ode to the dying stars by urranus - very soft and bittersweet, inspired by the orange by wendy cope. again: obsessed. 

brick by brick, rebuild us by @zukkaoru - probably the first fic i read from grace and i still go back to it. what can i say i'm a sucker for a post corruption fic. captured the dynamic very well.

-

20k+ words

silver soul by @nacaharachuya - absolutely gorgeous worldbuilding, had me mesmerized from the start and kept it up until the very end 

music for our funeral by @itowhotypes - read this a while back but this was phenomenal and the level of detail was absolutely incredible 

when i awake by @wildflowerteas - destroyed me, put me back together again, destroyed me. then rinse and repeat several times.

emergency number by @valleykey - found this maybe two weeks ago? was intrigued, started reading and did not put it down once before i was finished. obsessed. 

and a couple of series for fun: - the symbitoic series by @bnesszai - i love everything ness writes but i read this series way before we were friends and still i'm obsessed with it so it deserves a mention - lost remnants series by kanekei - gorgeous and devastating, but mind the warnings bonus: normally i wouldn’t recommend a wip however navarasam has an entire chapter dedicated to (very successfully) hitting me where it hurts so how could i not. thank u vi @starrynightarchive.
