#i don’t want to be cynical but 🥲

[kuratchas]

hot take but the yingdu villains being all hot mysterious men scares me

[honoviadakai]

What you favorite Hazbin hotel song says about you 😈🎶😇

(This list includes songs from the pilot as well as a few others that are not official but are near and dear to the fandom's collective heart)

I’m always chasing rainbows 🌈:

…so how’s your relationship with your parents?

You have a good heart but you’re way too hard on yourself

You don’t always have to be busting your ass off, taking breaks is not a crime

Also failing is not the end of the world

I believe in you, please be kinder to yourself

Inside of every demon is a rainbow 🌈 😈:

Golden retriever energy

You are so sweet but so naive

I honestly feel like if this is your fav song, I could spit in your meal and you'd just smile and get a new plate

It's ok to go apeshit

If you did ever get mad I genuinely feel like you'd be absolutely terrifying

But you're such a sweet person, i can't imagine someone pushing you to that point

Inside of every demon is a lost cause/Alastor's reprise 🎶👿:

You're a cynical bastard and you wear that shit like a badge of honor

You're on the same page as Alastor in terms of redemption being impossible/pointless

If this song is your favorite, you laugh at children when they fall over

very loudly

You're the one in your friend group that everyone has to warn about before introducing you to new people

You receive the bombastic side eye so often you smile every time it happens

ADDICT🕸��🚬:

You need a hug

All of the hugs

You're doing your best and I just want you to know I'm proud of you

Vox's Interlude📺🎶:

You like Dubstep

You like Dubstep to a concerning degree

You're also disappointed Vox doesn't have the same voice effect in cannon that he has in the song

You're a Vox simp, but you're really chill about it

Royal Flush🥃♥️♠️♦️♣️:

Hello my fellow Pansexuals and Husk Fans~

If this if your favorite song, you're a Mick Lauer fan and you were sad to hear he wasn't coming back to the official series and it made you even more jaded than you already were(I feel you)

You're also a fan of Johnathan Young and Rock music

You lowkey giggle every time you hear the "every hole is a goal" line

You probably have a sever resting bitch face that scares ppl sometimes, but deep down you're a softy

A jaded softy, but a softy

Radio Play📻🎶:

Hello Alastor fans that lament the recasting of Edward Bosco

Hello Black Gyrph0n fans that think he's not receiving enough recognition

How deep in the financial debt hole are you because of your love of Alastor and new found desire to have a retro 30's aesthetic once this song dropped?

You have good taste in music but I feel like you'd say out of pocket shit on accident

You probably know how to do the Charleston pretty well and that's pretty cool

Redemption arc🙏🎶:

Hello my depressed gifted child burnouts and Elise Lovelock fans

You're a girlboss, you really are, but I need you to take more breaks and drink more water

You strike me as someone who takes the phrase "act your wage" as a suggestion at best

If over thinking was an Olympic sport, you'd win gold, silver ans bronze

stop trying to carrying other people's baggage on top of your own, that's not building character, its building more work for your therapist

Assuming you've even allowed yourself to see one!

Insane🦌🔪:

You're unhinged

like Niffty levels unhinged

but you have good taste in music

You're also a very vocal Alastor fan

You need to be watched 24/7 because you strike me as someone who'd commit war crimes for fun

Eyes on me📺🥲:

You like Techno a normal amount

you're probably a Bo Burnham fan

You also give the vibe that you like anime like Evangalion

as well as the vibe of hiding behind a chill facade even though you're kinda depressed

you also give the impression that you're into enemies to lovers and once sided pining in romance

You ship Vox x Alastor in a wholesome way and you're foaming at the mouth for their backstory

You hate Val(as you should)

Change the order 👑🪽:

You lament that Lucifer doesn't have a British accent

You HEAVILY lament Lucifer not being a heartless asshole

You oh so desperately wanna see Lucifer and Lilith in their prime/as a united power couple

You have slight daddy issues

You're also probably someone who grew up with some religious trauma

You're in your villain arc but it's mostly yo protect yourself

i highly suggest getting a dog, a rubber duck collection and a therapist

Get hooked🚬🦋:

Your search history is not suitable for human eyes

You definitely have daddy issues

You desperately wanna see Val on the poles

You're fun at partied but you cannot be left unsupervised under any circumstances

You radiate bad bitch energy but I feel like you'd apologize to a kindly janitor if you had to walk on a floor they just finished mopping

You can run in heels and I respect that immensely

Smile like you mean it😁🦌:

I get it! You love Alastor! Please lower your voice a tad friend!

It's concerning how quick you'd sell your soul to this man

You like jazz unironically(nice)

You wanna experience one of Al's radio shows

...I'm not entirely sure if you wanna hear it or be the victim...and that deeply concerns me

Use me up🕷️🥲:

You wanna see Angle Dust fuck shit up(same)

You don't make friends easily but you're the loyalest son of a bitch anyone could ever have and more people need to recognize that

You probably had a really rough childhood

You give ppl middle fingers and sass the way Oprah gave out cars back in the day

You just want a hug, someone to say they're proud of you(I'm proud of you friend) and a month long nap

We're sure to drown🐈‍⬛🥃🥺:

Hello again my fellow Pansexuals and Husk fans

Specifically the ones with severe depression, trust issues and think mixing Tequila and monster energy drinks will help with the abandonment issues

yeah, i see you, put the bottle down mf

get therapy, this a threat

You're so cynical that even shadow the hedgehog would ask if you're ok

asking for help doesn't make you weak fam, i get where your coming from but you need a good plucking you prickly cactus

oddly enough, you give the best advice to the few friends you keep in your circle but take none of your own advice

You listen to country rock with lyrics so sad that everyone in the car with you immediately get concerned

definitely a cat person

POP!👁️💥:

You either wanna be stepped on or do the stepping on

You probably watched Black Lagoon and loved Revy

If you don't know what I'm talking about, look her up, that's your type

Low key probably a pyromaniac

You're that one friend that's ALWAYS ready to punch your friend's ex's in the face

Honestly, I feel like you're scrappy enough to fist fight god with the confidence of someone who thinks they have a shot at winning

My machine 🐍 ⚙️:

You were really excited to see Pentious be one of the show's antagonists

You're still a little bitter about not getting your mad scientist, steam punk, snake man

You did love his War General outfit though

You probably really like shows like Arcane

You really wanted 'Enemies to lovers' CherriSnake or platonic/rivals CherriSnake

You probably have reptile as a pet

most likely a snake

Happy day in hell🎶🎤:

You're a basic Broadway bitch but your optimism is a tad infectious so I'll let it slide

You're a tad too optimistic though

Like, to a concerning degree

Someone could punch you and you'd ask them if they were ok despite having a split lip

you're definitely a workaholic

take that PTO sweetie, work will be there when you come back

Hell is forever😇😈:

you either really like Alex Brightman or you LOVE villains

you also love rock

You kicked your feet like a love sick when Adam did the guitar solo bit

Probably a fan of bands like Skillet

You have religious trauma but your coping mechanism is to crack jokes about it

some of them are probably inappropriate

Stayed gone📺🦌:

You ship Vox x Alastor a "normal" amount

You'd sell your soul for Vox and Al to have more duets together

You're probably a Vox simp

If you're not, its cuz you're an Al simp

You giggled at "That's the tea"

You also drooled at Al's demon form towards the end of the song

It starts with sorry🐍🥹:

friend, you are way too forgiving

someone could steal your life's savings and I feel like you'd just let them have it because "they probably need it more"

You were very proud of Pentious

Respectless💅📱:

You radiate chihuahua energy

You are 5'2 or smaller and 90 lbs soaking wet

someone need to make sure you don't run these streets lawless

don't get me wrong

You are absolutely a bad bitch that serves cunt like a 5 star restaurant serves gourmet steak

but you're gonna say the wrong thing to the wrong person one day

you cannot afford to fuck around and find out when they're over 5'9 my friend, sit down please

Whatever it takes🦋🩰:

you're the eldest child of your family aren't you

You don't need to prioritize everyone before yourself!

Love yourself first damn it!

You probably like Milfs or goths

You also probably wish Zestial had more songs

I have a feeling your favorite Disney movie is Encanto...

Poison🚬🕷️🥺:

Holy fuck you need a hug

You're either a survivor of some kind or life has just been kicking you in the balls for no god damn reason

Come here, I'm adopting you and making sure you're actually happy

You're low key an amazing dancer

literally one of the best people to be friends with

Loser Baby🐈‍⬛🕷️:

hello my fellow queers, Keith David fans, Blake Roman fans and Huskerdust shippers

You are a connoisseur of slow burn romance

You're probably a depressed hopeless romantic

friend, if you want the Husker to your dust...the loser to your baby...you gotta talk to people...

go touch grass

you're that one friend who bullies your bestie but that's cuz that your guy's love language

If anyone messed with your bestie, you'd fight that person to the death the way Husk and Angel did to those loan sharks

Hell's greatest dad🪽🦌:

You either beef with ppl for fun or you're a very flamboyant theater kid

Its probably both tbh

You probably fell in love with the blonde short king after this song

You ship Radioapple

you want a sitcom ft Radioapple and you'd sell your soul to get it

Your fav Disney movie is probably Aladdin

You totally play "HaHA! Fuck you..." on repeat

More than anything🪽😭:

So how's your relationship with your dad...

You cried so hard to this song that it scared you

grab the tissues, get your coziest blanket and go get your favorite treat

and some therapy

Welcome to Heaven😇🎶:

Emily is your favorite character

Your gaydar was going off when St. Peter started existing

Your a chill person

A little too chill though…

You might still be an active member of your community

Ya might wanna consider reducing your hours, there is such a thing as too much loyalty

Treat yourself to a vacation

You didn't know😧🪽:

Hello fellow black sheep of the family with severe religious trauma

You freaked the fuck out when the “If Hell is forever then Heaven must be a lie” line dropped

You felt so vindicated after this song and honestly, same

You LOVED Emily by the end of this song

Out for love 💗 🩰:

You like MILFs

You want Carmilla to kick/step on you

You’re either a magical girl fan, a fan of Latin music or both

You cheered so hard for Vaggie at the end you definitely got a noise complaint 🤣

Ready for this🎤⚔️:

You have anxiety

Your favorite character is probably Charlie

Your favorite movie is probably Marry Poppins or something in the same time period/genre

You’ve dealt with Karen’s before and watching Susan become tolerable was so satisfying for you

You want Alastor and Rosie to adopt you

More than anything(reprise):

You're the poster child of sappy hopeless romantics

You cried a little from joy here

You’re definitely not straight

You want this moment, go get yourself a Vaggie cuz you’re definitely gonna be the Charlie of the relationship

Finale🎶🎆:

You're the ultimate theater kid

This song hit all the sweet spots in your depressed brain for you

Let’s be honest, your favorite part of the song was either the Vees or Alastor

It’d your favorite part was with the Vees, your a huge chaos gremlin

You cannot be trusted with information but you’re very fun at parties

If your favorite part was Alastor’s part, get therapy

If you related to that part on a spiritual level, you mask so hard I’d believe you if you said you were born wearing a mask

[emomeishibot]

⚠️I personally think kuroshitsuji season 2 is a mess, the plot doesn’t make sense. But all the characters are innocent🥲

This post is about a possible sbcl situation after S2 ending, a Ciel&Cerberus Adventures headcanon/paro (Idk, somehow it’s both

I read the sbcl fanbook by @tapuy on X and it makes me consider what could happen after season II… I mean it feels quite depressing at the beginning because how it’s portrayed but when I realize Ciel has become an immortal impious boy who could do whatever he want for all eternity,, I stopped depressing(??( also I learned that Seb keeps a hell hound called Cerberus at his hell home so Ciel could just take it to adventures like Tin Tin (it’s just that Ciel is rid of the burden of revenge and all the soul swappy bullshit, he deserves some decent childhood shenanigans (good taste tho) for him to contribute to this miserable eternity of a world(???) I’m thinking about Tom Sawyer, Nils Holgersson, and Peter Pan (I secretly want to see Ciel set sail and go pirate treasure hunting🤲)

Ciel would just be going on hunt for souls(he needs to eat and wants to have some fun scavenging tasty (I’d even say souls of sweetness, since he’s demon sense of taste is no longer for human desserts) souls; and in a early Q&A Ciel emphasized in boldface that he hates unsavory food, so I’d say he could be considering what to do about it after he’s turned into a demon.

One might ask what is Seb doing in hell, leaving his master running wild outside with the hell hound… I just think that they need some time apart to kind of let the awkwardness (I literally don’t know how to put it, but I think having Seb serving invisible tea for Ciel in a hell mansion for all eternity is just misuse of immortality) of S2 to fade away and think about this new situation thru(???). Seb would need some time to reflect his past two seasons and probably revise his butler aesthetics for future practical purposes. Plus Seb could finally keep cats now cuz I believe Ciel wouldn’t mind letting him. If Ciel and Cerberus gets into real trouble like grim reapers, Ciel can summon Seb to get them outta there. But I think they just have such different tastes in food that Ciel would disagree with Seb’s insistence on how to season souls or whatnot but experiment on his own. I’d be curious to see if they’d be making more contracts to humans. I believe Ciel would allow Seb to do so as long as their master-servant contract is not violated; also Ciel hasn’t had enough of his crime-fighting morally gray life (??) he could use that past work experience to sort out souls that he would want to consume, and live among men and experience more (he is too young to be a permanent dweller of hell, let him travel…)

I think after years, decades Ciel and Seb can get back to live and hunt for souls together once they adapt to this new change in identity and power dynamics. Ciel is now his permanent responsibility and Seb needs to get use to it since he’s so cynical about souls and all, but they’ll figure out. While he takes his time brooding with cats in his hell mansion with an inferno view, let Ciel go have a wild adventure as a young demon and pick how he’d like to be for the rest of eternity…and fulfill his childhood wishes(like adventures, amusement parks, all the interesting festivals around the world…) since he’s no longer a vulnerable child but can defend himself as a demon and accompanied by a powerful pet.

I just think keeping a little animal sidekick around for Ciel would be so cute…and Cerberus is like, gets eepy listening to music and loves pancakes while being a flesh and soul consuming monster… it’s just any boy’s dream mythical pet…let Ciel own this!!!

That’s it, I hope you enjoyed reading this!!

So far chapter 5 has been my favorite so far!

 I am so excited every time you post a update this is generally one of my favorite stories that I have been reading. I can’t tell you how happy it makes me that I can play a ruthless killer character and not be punished for it that my character has a supportive loving family they also just happens to be mafia and killers. And the family is my favorite thing about it everything with Luka and the torture scene and I chose to let him torture and I just hung back and watched just completely dominated everything and I could see why Jackal is so in love with him. all the care and concern he has for our character on top of that? 🥰 and I have a little head cannon that little Zoya(My MC) would call him on the phone and he would just teleport to her whenever she wanted.

And grandpa I started losing it when he sat down next to us and was hugging us and patting our head and telling us how proud of us he was and then my character had like a mini panic attack when she started to think about grandpa and Luka dying, which makes sense considering everything that happened to her that she would lose her shit a little bit at the thought of our only family dying. and I was really curious about what exactly Viktor did for work and I read that he’s a photographer and I thought I remembered you saying somewhere that Ash does photography so did he pick it up from Viktor?

And I really am just as excited if not more for all the family scenes then the romance. I think you’re doing something really special with this story.

Hey, I know you sent this like a week ago, but I’ve been keeping it until the Public Update 😄 And thank you so much for the kind words and compliments ☺️

And yeah, loving and loyal family is kinda my jam 😄 I really love the wholesome dynamics and of course, whenever MC needs his help and calls him, Luka will instantly teleport there no matter what 🥺 This is canon, even if I’m not sure whether it would appear in the story right now.

Also, Luka’s ruthlessness is indeed one of the things that draw Jackal to him and also vice versa for Luka. They’re both drawn to each other’s deadliness and proficiency in what they do.

Luka be like:

But it is also what kinda made their relationship progressed quite slow 😂 Sure, you can sleep with a person that can technically kill you, but truly fall in love—especially for someone like Jackal who is just very cynical in nature. As long as there are no real feelings attached, they’d find it easier to off the other if they end up betraying or stabbing the other in the back 🤣 But of course that was not what happened between Luka and Jackal.

And yes, poor MC is just constantly fearing and worrying about losing another loved one constantly in the back of their head. They’ve experienced it three times in the span of only a decade 🥲 They cling on to their only family left tightly.

As for your question about Viktor’s profession, he worked as a freelance professional photographer to provide for MC. He had always loved taking photos ever since he was a kid. Grandpa and Grandma bought him polaroid cameras and digital cameras and he had photo albums, and you bet he has a lot one for when MC is growing up 🥰 Sadly… The albums would never be fully completed now and the photos stopped around when MC was nine. Maybe one day… MC can fill it in with pictures of their important moments in their life.

I’m not sure about Ash, I don’t think I said that they’re into photography.. Or did I? I can’t really remember anymore. But they are not supposed to, the closest I think is Skylar because they kinda like arts stuff, like poetry and sketching and painting landscapes (although they are not the best) 😆

[chryblossomjjk]

I’ve never been more thankful for the tumblr algorithm because it allowed me to find your account 😭 ‘the weekend’ is honestly such a good read and UGHHH Jungkook is such a cold asshole here FR but I love it. He really took advantage of oc’s feelings :c the poor girl deserves happiness and love and I really wished she could have found that.

I don’t think it was directly mentioned but I think it was implied that oc’s dad is the only parent present in her life, so the comment Jungkook made at the end about “ruining” his daughter’s life if he divorced his wife was such a punch in the gut 🥲 he knew of her home life and troubles and still took advantage of her vulnerability knowing full well he would not want that for his own daughter.

This was truly such an amazing story and I’m literally left so broken rn 😭💘 this story really hit the feels Fr

oof omg im surprised you found it lol tumblr algorithm completely buried that fic and im still pissed >:(

thank you so much for reading love!! and right, oc has this naivety about her!! you can tell be her relationship with her dad that she’s very much sheltered from the world. she’s not prepared to deal with anything jungkook brings to the table.

and im glad you picked up on that!! like i tried to make parallels between oc and yul, who are the only lights in jungkooks life. hes damaging both of them. yul, like oc, is extremely sheltered and jungkook kind of stunts her development a bit. and hes tainting oc’s world view, like she sees the world in rose tinted glasses and hes making her turn cynical :’(( and it’s ironic, bc they’re both very dear to him!!

ℐ𝒩𝒯ℛ𝒪~

Welcome! This is my rp/ask blog for Jonathan Sims, head archivist of the Magnus Institute. If you are not familiar with The Magnus Archives, expect sarcasm and pessimistic cynicism galore. Also expect triggering content. The Magnus Archives in and of itself deals with basic phobias such as the feeling of being watched, possession, bugs, paranoia, the apocalypse, and several more. If you struggle with any of these topics, I suggest avoiding this blog. While gore and body horror appear in TMA as well, I will write about these a lot less. Gore and body horror tags will be listed below, along with some others.

Also, I have AU ideas that I’d LOVE to incorporate here, but for now this blog is based on season 1 Jon and any random head canons that I may have come up with.

ALSO also, I might throw in some of my drawings and/or fic ideas once I improve them a little bit. My sketchbooks are absolutely covered in tma doodles, so maybe I’ll throw in a few here and there. Who knows, flip a coin.

ℳ𝒪𝒟 ℐ𝒩𝒯ℛ𝒪~

Hello! I’m Lilith. My pronouns are they/them, and I am going into my senior year of HS. While I am obsessed with tma, as of writing this post I have to admit that I haven’t listened past ep 130. Keep in mind that I don’t really care about spoilers, but don’t expect me to know them LMAO. My likes/follows will come from @testing-999, but I doubt anything else.

ℛ𝒰ℒℰ𝒮~

1. No nsfw content. Jokes, references, etc. are fine but I will NOT be doing any straight nsfw scenes. I headcanon Jon as asexual, and will not be budging on that.

2. DO NOT RUSH MY REPLIES. I can and will drop whatever thread or ask I am getting rushed on.

3. Please recognize my boundaries. There’s nothing I hate more than watching a line get stepped on, and once again I will not hesitate to ignore/block you.

4. I had a rp/ask blog back in 2020, but only recently redownloaded tumblr. There’s a good chance I’ll either forget to tag something or that I’ll tag it wrong, so please call me out for it. Just as I don’t want anyone overstepping my boundaries, I don’t want to overstep anyone else’s.

5. I’m not against ships, but keep in mind Jon is roughly in his upper 20s and I will not rp anything with a large age gap.

6. Be patient with me 🥲 I’m a high school senior that over-scheduled their classes, so this year will be a struggle for me. I’ll be as active as I can, but expect inconsistency.

6. Events, ideas and suggestions are more than welcome!! I appreciate any and all feedback, and if you have a fun rp idea I would LOVE to hear it

8. CROSSOVERS ARE MORE THAN WELCOME!! Same with asks too. I love love love interaction, I’m like a little bed bug that feeds off of it.

And last but not least

𝒯𝒜𝒢𝒮~

In character post - statement begins || head archivist

Gore - Ow! Ouch! Owie! || head archivist

Body horror/transformation - metamorphosis begins || head archivist

OOC post - Lilith is sleepy || OOC

Characters besides Jon posting - archives expanding || MORE CHARACTERS

Crossover rp - does your world have coffee? || CROSSOVER

Ask - tell me what happened || ASK

Rps including the wonderful @diviningjade - Fashion major? Space girl? Who knows || diviningjade

And any more tags that might need to be made will be added. PLEASE let me know if there’s anything specific that you’d want me to tag.

[postnuclearophelia]

Molly how do I continue being a writer despite not reaping the benefits 🥲 it used to be so easy to get ur work out there (like…the beats LOL everyone was high, accepted anything) & now it’s like if ur work is slightly bizarre ur ostracized from magazines I guess I’m feeling cynical about the whole process if u have any advice ❤️

Ommmg stop cause ur one of my fav writers and I feel like I should be asking u the same advice. I feel like the only thing we can do is fight for it like not just writing but free thinking is so frowned upon by american society nowadays and I feel like no one wants new and interesting things. Sometimes I think tho that every single one of my fav artists has felt the same way about the reception of their work at times. Also framing ourselves more as artists can help . Infiltrating our way in through the conceptual art world perhaps . Ugh I don’t really know…..! I love u 💓

220514 RM’s Instagram Stories

RM posted several excerpts from '쓰고 싶다 쓰고 싶지 않다/I want to write, I don't want to write', a collection of essays by 9 different authors.

🥲

Here, the author talks about how a diet of instant, overwhelming information from their phone has weakened their thinking muscles. And so they have turned to the written word, making new habits, because sometimes people are moved by a desire to do something, but sometimes they are moved by a desire to not do something.

A cold river flows between the author and their writing. To get to their writing, they must cross it. The only reason anyone would suffer that repeatedly is either because their reality is just as cold, or because they enjoy pain. For the author, it used to be the latter.

구구절절..

Every single word..

Cont. from previous. That or they wanted to gain something, even if they had to cross the river for it. But now, they're not as cold nor do they want anything that desperately. They created refuges of stability, so now they don't have to cross the river. Now they don't feel like dying if they don't write - writing feels like death. What kind of writing can come from a life of stability? Thinking like that is a problem - that easy isn't legitimate, that only hardship and suffering can make writing that is true and has value.

They talk about feeling cold-hearted and cynical but also full of heat. Alternating between burning and freezing, they lost a lot of energy. It's more productive to have just the heat. Seen differently, their hate for the easy is evidence contrary to their high expectations of the world.

The closer they got to the great literature and movies they loved, the smaller they felt. So they had to change. The only way to live was to remove the illusion of greatness. Nothing has absolute beauty. The choice is between establishing a different value system, or quitting and doing something else. Unable to do either, the author just stopped in place. They need more time, to think or to let go and move on. Until then, they want to write, even if it's fake. The only way to tell if it's fake or real is to write it.

same story..

"The thing I believe in the most is writing. Even if it is a place I cannot reach, I do not know how to live a life that is not heading towards it."

I stumbled across this gif and I had to show you 😩

(This is from Adopt a Highway btw)

He's such a sex deprived fluffy confused bunny of a man and he makes me absolutely FERAL for some reason 😤

I feel like I had to share that so 🙃

-@wayward-persephone

CUUUUUUUUUUUTE

See, he’s the kind of guy I would fall for IRL. In fantasy? I want the big bad scary man who will kidnap me and do as he likes. In reality, obvs I don’t actually technically want that 😂 But in reality, UGH RUSSELL YES

Unfortunately I am cynical and do not think such a man exists 🥲

[melrosing]

How do you feel about the other upcoming spin-offs? I will probably watch Dunk and Egg (if it gets made) but the others sound boring

I mean the only one I will categorically not be watching is the Jon Snow show. I can’t care less about GOT’s versions of the characters, I don’t care what they got up to after GOT and frankly, I don’t want to know

The Dunk and Egg one vaguely interests me because I like those stories and I’m interested to know where they were going if GRRM never gets round to writing them (🥲), but I heard there’ll be like an entire miniseries per story and I don’t know if there’s enough material in each to work with for that format to hold up. Feels kind of cynical lol.

The Corlys Velaryon show and the Nymeria show….. eh. I can imagine the Nymeria one working well as a film but it’s not a concept that excites me much, whilst the Corlys one seems like it would just be way too dependent on a pair showrunners making absolutely everything up, with no particular grounding in the books. So again. Eh

And finally the Yi Ti one. I don’t fucking know lol, I like a good animated show so if that’s what that turns out to be then sure I’m down but I can’t imagine getting excited about it as an asoiaf fan… like the Yi Ti is basically just a chapter in AWOIAF, it has little relation to anything that’s familiar in canon so I don’t have a clue what it’s even supposed to look like

[the-kittylorian-writes]

I have a story- well, more worldbuilding I guess?- question for ya! What drew you to Din/Omera as a pairing? Follow up, are there any common fandom assumptions about the pairing that you would like to correct?

(Reassurance: I don’t Do fandom drama, this isn’t a setup for a gotcha or anything, I just like learning how people think. My favorite pairing is Din/too tired for any of this nonsense, so it’s not like I have a ship to defend anyway. 😜)

Yay, there it is! Haha thank you for the ask! 😁💚

Okay, get ready for quite a lengthy explanation! 😂 Grab some hot cocoa and melt into a blankie. 🛌

It all started (here we go) when I saw the tv spot trailer/ad-edit trailer where scenes from the Sorgan episode kept playing. And this is a trailer ad that plays on loop unless you close the ad window (i hate those 🥲). I remember reacting to that trailer with annoyance over the prospect of a “forced romantic subplot” which had been a scourge for me personally, and I’ve enjoyed The Mandalorian season 1 so far without the MC (the then unnamed Din Djarin) strung with a romantic interest to spoil the adventure. But when the Sorgan episode aired, I was pleasantly surprised that the “romantic scenes” (in quote marks because they were subtle… maybe except those long-ish beats of Din and Omera just staring at each other… lol) were not in-your-face cheesy and cringe-worthy, at least for me. It was all in the body language, especially the scene where Omera tried to slowly take off Din’s helmet (which, I believe is a controversial take in the fandom but I’ll circle back to that one in a minute). I guess I meant to say that I was blown away with how wrong I was 🤣, about how I expected such scenes to keep me from watching the rest of the show. I don’t take that sort of effect on me lightly. I ended up being awed with how ambiguous yet implied the “romance” (or at least, a small spark) was depicted in that episode. In other words—my silly arse got converted from cynicism and Mandomera slowly grew on me. Also there’s this old trope of a hardened warrior finally getting tired of being constantly in peril and wanting a more peaceful existence, coupled with homespun Sorgan and a gentle widow who happens to be a crack shot, there was something there that tickled me pink. HOWEVER, I was also relieved that at the end of the episode, Din decided he’d rather not stay (and also Grogu’s life was still in danger so they had to be on the run again). Because hey… I don’t want the single dad warrior guy main plotline saddled with baggage other than the lone wolf and cub adventures. (I’ll be lying, though, if i said that I wouldn’t want Din to return to Sorgan in the future before the entire series concludes. 🙈)

But, as I said earlier, the pairing grew on me. Tough but jaded warrior guy + soft and nurturing but capable woman is a mix I kinda fell for first with Aragorn and Arwen from LOTR (yep… debatable, but yep 😅). It’s also a plus that Omera seems non-judgmental and Din just relayed very personal information to her in a heartbeat. I thought at first that it could be a flaw of convenience script-wise, but it did work for me anyway. Pedro Pascal’s voice acting also did great favors for Din in all his Sorgan scenes with Omera. 😵

Bottomline: I had tried to find reasons to dislike the Din and Omera dynamic in the show, but realized that the dynamic was done in a way where I can not only forgive it, but accept it. And then I slowly became a fan. Lol!

Now on to the controversial bit: that scene where Omera seemingly takes off Din’s helmet without his permission. I beg to disagree, at least personally. At that point of the episode, Din already had trusted Omera enough to leave Grogu under her care. Whatever defenses Din had built around himself with Sorgan and Omera herself were not there anymore. So I believed it was also a point safe enough for Omera to lay both hands on Din’s helmet without Din reacting defensively or aggressively opposing it. And Omera also did it slowly, allowing Din time to change his mind or at least say “no”—which he did, but Din even sounded gently remorseful about his decision not to stay. I think the episode up to that point had the characters establish silent agreements or cues between themselves, and I feel it’ll break the flow of the scene if Omera outright said “May I remove your helmet?” Body language between the two actors was directed skillfully enough to relay words that don’t have to be announced (kudos to Bryce Dallas Howard 😍). Again, at least for me! I know there are those who see the development too rushed, etc but I didn’t see that. I guess it’s a matter of intention from the director and interpretation of the audience.

So yeah hahaha this was quite the long answer. 😮‍💨 I may have even missed a few spots but I hope you find it satisfactory so far. 😋 I do agree as well that an ultimate ship should be Din/too tired, fed up, fck ths sht i’m getting some sleep *cries under his helmet* or Din/Dad Responsibilities! 😆😆

Ugggggggh. Sorry about the COVID. Good luck + feel better soon. (Rest is apparently really important if you can manage it)

Yeah, I figured that out lol. Hadn’t been able to manage much rest due to the pain in my chest and inability to breathe, which is what kind of tipped me off that I needed to go to the ER. I haven’t posted an update on that, but I did get released in the wee hours of the morning. They got me some good meds to help my airways and helped me get some fluids in which was dope because I was also hella dehydrated due to being too exhausted to even drink water🥲

Doing wayyy better today, able to breathe and sit normally now and actually walk around without feeling like I’m gonna faint😂 When I say it out loud that sounds so bad. What the doctors were most worried about was my stupidly high heart rate that they could only barely get below 100 (which is not my normal when laying down, fyi😂 Usually I’m in the 60-70 range) and when walking it would still spike up to a 115ish. Which, when I walked in my resting was 115 and my standing/walking was jumping to 155 and even higher (170-180😬) depending on if I was walking up or down stairs. I have a family history of heart issues (and a fuck ton of trauma which can also seriously effect your heart, shocker) so they were paying attention to that. However I was stable enough to GTFO and I did cause I already know this bill is about to be absolutely bonkers and I really don’t even want to think about it tbh😂😩 Yes I do have insurance but that often doesn’t do as much good as one would think. (Non-American readers, for reference, my less than 48 hr stay in a mental ward last September cost over $8,000 before insurance and was a fun $1,500 after insurance.) Whether the amount is before or after insurance, it’s still way too much for us to afford currently. Sigh. Healthcare sucks ass for so many reasons. I don’t fucking trust hospitals or doctors and I know you have similar feelings about them, so I know you get it.

Overall my experience was fine and the nurses and doctors were kind, but I definitely didn’t want to be there, it was simply a necessity. However, doing that could have potentially saved my life because they did say with my underlying conditions and the unpredictability of COVID it could have gone downhill really fast, so it’s still good that I came in for the preventative work to keep it from progressing further. Considering it was only my second day of the sickness, it was obviously concerning that I was doing so poorly so soon. Also just gonna put it on the record that We as a collective fucking HATE CT scans and the last time we had one I have no memory of it which is probably for a good reason but DAMN that shit triggered us hella bad. We got locked up and freaked internally but knew that an external freak out would probably not be super duper so we just kept all that inside. Dissociation babey😎

Thanks for the message, though! Always nice to hear from ya! We’re doing much better and are definitely on the mend. The sucky part is wondering if these effects will last a long time or be permanent or pop up later. My left atrium was already looking sketchy according to the EKG but they didn’t really address it with me and didn’t seem worried about it so🤷🏻 I’m just not gonna think about it til the problem comes cause why worry about something I can’t control like fuckinnn heart failure. If I die, I die, I guess. 😂😂 No I’m not suicidal, I just have a pretty cynical view of life. I’m trying to be better about that. I was joking though, that I was going to be pissed that I was finally having happiness and planning my future for the first time in my life not to mention had gone through unimaginable shit as a child just to get taken out by a fuckin VIRUS?! Fuck that shit, I’m living outta spite now.

Gonna shut the fuck up now cause my Rona brain fog is clearly getting to me LOL.

my url...? 👀 only if it's okay!

spread the crowns ( ft. crown opinion meme w/ @thegreenswillcome )

[ ♛ ] send me your url and i’ll tell you the following;

my opinion on;

character in general: i have not gotten to meet all of them yet so for now, i will comment on the ones that i have the privilege of interacting with- so first, jay!! what a guy....honestly, he feels very balanced to me, based on what i’ve seen of him not just in his interactions with mana and patrick, but also in his interactions with hyuk and yuna!! i love that even though he is an idealist, a romantic ( henceforth the phrase lover boy JFKLSDJFL ) at heart, he’s no fool. he’s completely aware that people suck... a lot at times. his past would make him aware of that and while he has every reason to be a cynic, he still chooses NOT to be and you write that so wonderfully 🥲 and then misaki!! i love her so much too- how she’s rebelling against her mother��s expectations for her, how she lives in the fast lane of life an yet?? she gets along so well with lam AND IT’S KINDA HILARIOUS bc since she resembles robin in A LOT of ways, she would technically be one of the last kinds of ppl lam would consider letting into his circle again...and yet here they are 🥲 how they play them: this bled into the previous section, but i think the backstories of xia’s ocs are always so nuanced and again, BALANCED....none of them can be defined by an archetype because they?? already have sides of them that lie out of those archetypes....i also just love the overall emotional maturity and intelligence of all of xia’s ocs display ( but also xia also has herself )....like seriously, you would be surprised with how many muses i’ve encountered that don’t ( which is not a bad thing the very least, except for that it usually bleeds into the mun’s behavior often too *sighs* )- for me, at least, that kind of maturity allows dynamics where both parties will benefit!! the mun: xia, you are always SUCH a joy to see on my dash- i love seeing your comments, whether they’re ooc or ic, on not just my posts, but also other people’s posts as well...you’re also just a very down-to-earth and chill person  which is ALWAYS a plus in my book ^^ i adore not just interacting with you, but also just seeing you interact with your other partners and how you both support and encourage them ooc and ic- i hope we can write and be mutuals for a long time to come <3

do i;

follow them: yes!! rp with them: yeee!! want to rp with them: absolutely!! ship their character with mine: i mean if there’s chemistry, i’d be willing to give it a shot, BUT also i do think we’re on the same boat of being very picky with whom we choose to ship with/if we ship our characters with anyone at all jsflkjd

what is my;

overall opinion:

**Note: Mun’s answer are all to be completely honest. Don’t send url if you don’t want brutal honesty.

I HAVE BEEN STRUCK 💘💓!!! I’m in emotionnss over hilarious goofy Jax whilst simultaneously tearing up over the angst sprinkled through this 🥲

Okay wow let us start with the angst, omggg it hit hard all the worrying and fear for his life that she’s always carrying with her - it really came across that yes Jax sees it all on the frontline at the club but she feels all of it too - all that pain, worrying and loss just as much as much he does because she’s a part of him 🥺

The potential for this phone call to be the phone call weighed heavy on your heart and made you mad at Charming’s bright and sunny weather, almost as if it was celebrating what he was going through right now.

Lately, you seemed to be the cozy house that fear lived in. It made itself comfortable, settling in your bones and bathing in your blood, leaving behind a pollutant that circulated throughout your system and slowly ate away at you everyday.

There were many nights where you’d wake up without him beside you in bed. You’d go out to the living room to find him sitting on the couch, tears staining his face as he sat there as still as a statue, his overactive mind rendering him motionless. Maybe he was reflecting on memories, blaming himself for what happened and thinking about what he could’ve done to prevent it all. Sometimes he’d have the pictures of them that he’d pulled from the garage at T-M sprawled all over the coffee table and on the couch beside him, but that was only on the really hard nights.

This part KNOCKED ME TO THE FLOOR, WOW the angst the depth of the emotions, so beautifully written 🥺❤️

He wasn’t looking so good now and all you could do was hope he would come back after he passed out. You don’t know if he would, maybe he’d be too enticed by what was waiting for him on the other side and just stay there, where there was no pain; where his best friend, his brother and father were. You could only hope you were enough to tether him to the earth.

Full on sniffling at this part 😭💗

“Come back to me,” you whispered. “I will,” he sighed, “And I’ll get you that diamond ring too,” he promised.

Let us think fluffier thoughts now with goofy drunk Jax 😝 Oh I loved how cheeky he was, that hint of jealousy when he didn’t want her to look at anyone else but him 🤣, and him scoffing talking the talk about how he’d get her a bigger better ring than the one his own damn self had gotten her lololll HILARIOUS I loved this 🤣

“Don’t look at him,” he let go of the breath he was holding, "Look at me,” he demanded as best as he could.

Jax inspected your wedding ring with cynical eyes before rolling them. “I would’ve got you something nicer,” he muttered.

The part where she was looking at her ring adoring it and reassuring him that she loved it was so sweet awwww 🥲

“No, I like this one,” you replied, “You did a good job with it,” you admired the ring on your hand for a moment.

AAHHH I loved this all 😍🤩!!!
