the potential of these two is devastatingly unexplored

#booster gold #ted kord #boostle #blue beetle #skeets #buggles #i don't just mean shipping #although smashing the two orbs together would be excellent #but also buggles hating skeets is so funny #and it's even more funny if booster and ted are unaware of the drama #are they besties? lovers? enemies? all of the above? united to conquer humanity?#dc hasn't even brought buggles back #we do know that gold beetle has a robot buddy named beets (buggles and skeets ship name) so that is something

Shipping is fun and all but I swear every single time someone makes a comment, whether as a joke or in a legitimate analysis, about there being "no other explanation" for a pair's interactions, I lose just a bit more of my sanity

Like, no, you guys don't get it. Romance is not about the Amount of devotion, it's about the COLOR. the FLAVOR of it all. a character can be just as devoted to their platonic friend as they are to their romantic partner, and they don't love either of them more, just differently.

But because the majority of people still have it stuck in their minds that romance exists on the highest tier of love, I'm stuck seeing endless takes that boil down to "these two care about each other too much for it to NOT be romantic" as if that's the core determining factor to how literally any of this works

In conclusion: stop telling me that I don't understand the story if I don't interpret the leads as romantic, I am TIRED

#analysis #meta #miscellaneous #fandom #shipping #media discussion #amatonormativity #lgbtq #I feel like tagging any of the fandoms I was thinking of when writing this would be a little mean-spirited potentially #Disclaimer: no one has actually been telling me personally that I don't understand any story in particular #It's just that the way people tend to phrase their analyses feels unnecessarily targeted at the reader and that's just. not great #even if I agree with every other point they make

the face of a man who neither regrets his answer nor is aware of his imminent violent demise

#and the funny part is that all of them are right #also. despite appearances I don't actually ship Vlad with either of them!#all of my art about these three is intended to be platonic. except for canon JxM of course!#i just try to make sure they're all in character which automatically means they're gonna be Like That lol #danny phantom #vlad masters #jack fenton #maddie fenton #college trio

All of my restraint right now #to not be So Mean to all of you #You Don't Even Know #I Could Do Something.

Was thinking of my post about dream teams and got really invested in whatever Unrequited Hate has going on

#trafficblr #life series #tangotek #smallishbeans #inthelittlewood #smajor1995 #wild life smp #limited life smp #secret life smp #only tagging those three because they're the ones I referenced in particular while making this #see tango and joel started building a funny dynamic and then suddenly I'm super attached to a team that does not exist #tango has been the biggest annoyance to joel and joel (just like the rest of the server) WANTS HIM GONE.#scott and joel shouldn't have to be said there's someghjng so funny about joel praying in scott's downfall and then scott just dgaf #martyn and tango are silly cause tango is so distrusting if him and martyn fully embraces his untrustworthiness so it's like.#like a cat hissing at something that no one else finds suspicious #mean gills are...mean gills. they say they're divorced and all that but i don't buy it.#didn't know how to describe joel and martyn's dynamic other than that one line in limited life so i used those #and then tango and scott are silly cause they're so chill with each other. scott startles tango wuth his creeper disguise #and he just laughs and goes “you're the ultimate troll!” like! they are friends surely :)#oh and they're all shipped with jimmy solidarity too that is a thing #i love this non existent team dynamic sm they need ti be real please please PLEASEEEEEEEEE

("Always. Continuously. With increasing apprehension, and decreasing hope. I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday. I will love you as a corpse loves the beak of the vulture. I will love you no matter what happens to you, and no matter how I discover what happens to you, and no matter what happens to me as I discover this." -- paraphrased from The Beatrice Letters, Lemony Snicket)

#svsss #bingqiu #luo binghe #shen qingqiu #lbh #sqq #i've been working through the series of unfortunate events and somehow that series has paired really nicely with svsss #the themes of cycling violence and what's justified and what isn't and what can possibly be done differently #and how trying to bring love and honour into the midst of it really changes nothing but also changes everything #it's just *chef's kiss*#i don't know how i can quite do my thoughts justice but i've spent the past few weeks quietly going between the two series (and mdzs and tg #as well if we're being honest they all hit similar questions and themes) and just reveling in the pain and ambiguity of it #everything is interconnected and it means you can never know what trauma and pain and necessity has shaped a person #each story goes too far back to ever ever EVER possibly see the full extent of it #at that level even communication itself is nearly impossible.#and because of that it's almost impossible to change anything. beat yourself apart and the outcome is the same #and yet ATTEMPTING to change things ATTEMPTING to do the kind thing the honourable thing is absolutely critical #because while you can change nothing you also have the capacity to change EVERYTHING #aaaaaaah i don't even know what i'm saying #but i read the beatrice letters today and the love letter just. killed me.#(obviously i cherrypicked some lines because it's three pages long but those ones felt right)#''i love you like a corpse loves a vulture's beak'' i just. can't get over that line.#to be completely changed. altered. destroyed. redeemed. purified. desecrated. reduced to nothing yet entirely necessary for another's life.#what a FUCKING line #anyway i was either going to blow up from thinking about it or else i had to exorcise it via art from an entirely different series #i've already done svsss and discworld why not throw a series of unfortunate events into the mix #i'll be honest folks i did not expect svsss to be the mxtx series that would fuck me up the most about the main ship #bingqiu is something else. i don't even know how to begin to approach my feelings on it. impossibility and necessity all at once #bizarre #my art

hold on when did the subreddit add this rule lmao

#dnp #dan and phil #phan #someone really needs to temp ban dnp they seem to be getting a free pass on rpf just for being famous smh #i swearrrrr this was not there when i last checked #someone asked for fic recs a month ago and that didn't get removed?#lmao i kind of wonder if the post i made about how they seem to have a no shipping rule that isn't listed anywhere made them add it #though it didn't get much attention so that seems unlikely #sure whatever. i get that moderating is annoying and some stuff is just banned bc it's hard to moderate and it's not a values judgement #but i don't think rpf is particularly hard to moderate though so this seems like more of a values judgement lol #haklgsfdjadglf i mean i left the subreddit ages ago for reasons like this so #lou is loud #r/danandphil #trying to 'discourage' shipping dan and phil on a dan and phil themed subreddit is so crazy when even dnp make so much phan content #but yeah ok that explains why the rpf poll kept getting removed #EVEN WHEN IT WAS LITERALLY JUST A SCREENSHOT OF DAN'S POST #i can't evennnnnn #what is going ON in reddit phannies minds i need to study them under a microscope #this is genuinely better than an unspoken rule. i will give them that #at least expectations are clear

there are many reasons I like the "Erestor son of Caranthir" headcanon but secretly the main one is that I'm imagining all of the remaining noldo auditors sighing of relief when Caranthir dies and they don't have to try play 4d chess with multiverse time travel trying to catch this guy doing tax evasion. life is good for exilic auditors now.

and then suddenly Elrond and Elros turn up again! even better! oh who's this, Elrond? your good friend Erestor? he's helping you with your taxes? oh how swe- what is this Elrond. What is this. your paperwork for your taxes you say. not a declaration of war? because it looks like a declaration of war on the exilic auditors, Elrond.

and then all the auditors are so busy doing "extreme tax auditing™" for the first time since the second Kinslaying that they don't tell anyone they're pretty sure there's another scion of the house of Fëanor running around.

#in my mind Erestor takes after Haleth #so no one is clocking him on finwean vibes #Erestor manages not to commit war crimes by entertaining himself with creative tax evasion #which obviously was how he and Caranthir bonded #chief counsellor erestor you mean the person writing all of the feanorian faction as elrond's dependents #thats the easiest way to get a feanorian census btw #check the taxes #tax elf 2 electric boogaloo is just something that can be so personal #this is EVEN funnier if you ship glorestor #please imagine glorfindel trying to woo erestor #and erestor is like “i don't care WHO the valar send- you'll never catch me”#glorfindel the valar appointed tax collector (in erestor's mind)#tolkien #silmarillion #silm #erestor #caranthir #elrond #the silmarillion

does anyone have thoughts on the focus switching to Kabru, like.

At this point we and Kabru both see Laios begin to put together a plan to take down the mad magician, and Marcille is essential in this. But perceptive as Kabru is, he's got to know that this is also for Marcille' sake.

Sure she'll be an advisor together with him in the future, but here, all he saw from her was a spell backfiring into a monster and her begging people to not hurt someone who's murdering-a-ton. He doesn't have a high opinion of her priorities, even if he doesn't wish ill on her. My first thought was that Laios defense of her would be a bit frustrating for Kabru, even. Though he has an equally low opinion of the canaries' methods, and Shuro's report would force their involvement

But honestly, his past disgust with Marcille doesn't factor in this at all. This might be the first time Kabru is seeing how seriously Laios takes both defending his plans and a friend. Against someone Laios respects, no less! Considering what Kabru's own objectives are (a mission, but not progressing enough to formulate well-thought plans), as well as his most selfish desire is (companionship), I wonder if seeing this didn't affect him, a little. Maybe as an inspiration? Or as kinship?

After all, isn't “this person is both an important part of this plan and important to ME, and I won't let you kill them” reminiscent of another dynamic? Even if in this moment, he's not there yet.

#dungeon meshi spoilers #dungeon meshi #foils! foils! foils!!#this also isn't exactly the same as marcille defending falin bc laios wasn't an active danger when Lycion tried to kill him #I don't mean to say he defends laios only bc he saw this happening. I just think there are parallels #plus I can only imagine what it means for marcille to see someone who hasn't given up on neither his chimera sister nor in marcille herself #sorry I'm gonna have to tag this as my ship so I can find it later #this too is labru #labru #dm thoughts

Proshipper = you're against censorship and harassment over fiction & curate your experience on the internet to have a healthy distance from things that make you uncomfortable

Antishipper = you're okay and even encourage harassment towards "freaks" and "weirdos" society deems acceptable to hurt

#drama llama #fandom etiquette #please stop filling ship tags with hate #moving this post from twt to here #PROSHIPPING IS JUST A STANCE ON HARASSMENT AND CENSORSHIP #It doesn't mean you actually ship or like dark things #only that you're against censorship and attacking real people over fiction #you don't need to identify with the terminology especially when people are afraid of harassment #but don't fill ship tags with misinformation and hate #just mentioning the ship adds your post to the tag btw #just tw for incest??????#literally just tw for the kink #WITHOUT leet speak!!! you can say incest its okay!!!#this isn't about one person in particular #people do this on twt too #if people seek out anyone in the tags to attack i WILL block you too DO NOT harass people

How it feels to not like timebomb after s2

#I'M NOT A HATER I SWEAR I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE IT ON PAPER #i do however think that it came literally out of nowhere and was hella rushed and kinda ridiculous #like. if the argument is that original ekko fell in love with jinx it doesn't make sense because they were enemies for most of their lives #if the argument is that current ekko fell in love with au powder and now projects these feelings on jinx it's kinda uh. messed up #because she's a whole different person. entirely. it doesn't matter if both these version started out as a 9-year old powder. they had #extremely different lives and experiences and thinking that “there's still this kind of powder in jinx deep down” is straight-up awful #OR even if he didn't project his feelings for powder on jinx why would he love her in the current universe? last time they met she blew them #up and now she wants to commit suicide. there's literally no reason for him to have any kind of feelings except the slight friendly #affection that's left from all those years ago. and yet the show and most importantly the fandom treats them like a couple??? i don't get it #also it's kinda insane that s2 turned jinx and ekko into flat shipping material #again. obviously i have nothing against the shippers and do not condemn it in any way. i'm just expressing my thoughts on the matter #also what pisses me off the most. is how in ep9 jinx in fully painted with ekko's symbols here and there. has the bandage (?) on her chest #like vi. has a hood that looks like a drawing that isha made. and yet there's no fishbones or any reference to silco at all #i mean. i get it s2 hates him but i can't help it #they gave her all these relationships and pretended that they're significant to her and yet they didn't have any proper development #to really earn it #arcane critical #arcane season 2 #anti timebomb #jinx arcane #ekko arcane

Equally Invalid

#trafficshipping #smallidarity #<- shipping rlly isn't the main main focus here but it ends on the kiss so I'm scared to tag anything else lol #cw blood #my art #animatic #it's more like. visuals for character analysis thoughts. because this is way more fun for all of us than writing it all out as an essay #I don't expect you guys to. Get it btw or at least not all of it alot of this is very self indulgent and jumps around the timeline #it's like 99% just for me but still. I hope the smallidarity enjoyers of the world can get smth out of it at least lol #very very very happy for ppl to ask abt specific scenes if ur interested ofc #I prefer not to spell out what things mean cus like. It's more fun for me thinking of ppl applying their own thoughts onto my stuff.#but if you ask I will yap forever god bless #if you want you can play a game of spot the jojo reference. and spot the utena reference #ANYWAY YEAH WOO scott and joel content yes yes yes woo!!!!#do they have a duo name like. at all. is that a thing #happy pride everyone
