Did you think I was done? Ahahahaha no, I have more.
Because chapter 70 of MOMU gave me the very dynamic between them that I missed so much, I just blacked out and started drawing uncontrollably lmao
Also. ALSO. I noticed a while ago that Prowl has the habit of..like…constantly frowning. So. I did a bit of research and made this graph.
In 70 chapters, Prowl frowns rougly 104 times. And the intensity of this gesture is very clearly correlated with the development of his relationship with Jazz, as you can see ahahahahah It might be wrong tho don’t take me seriously I’m not good with graphs
#maccadam#transformers#prowl#jazz#jazzprowl#fic fanart#momu fanart#I just#mmmmm#For the whole fic Prowl had to think twice about everything Jazz says#every information could end up being wrong#sometimes even without Jazz realising it#so when Prowl says#he’s trusting Jazz. it’s.#also it totally wasn’t me googling ‘believing and trusting nuance difference in english’#the moment I realised the difference I think my brain started rollercoaster loops#he can’t believe him but he found enough faith to trust him#while. YES. For the whole story Jazz couldn’t fucking be believed#list e n#Jazz did a lot of things for Prowl#fucktons of big and small gestures to show that yes he likes loves and appreciates Prowl#I’m so happy Prowl is returning this energy#like#remember that scene a while back when Jazz kissed Prowl? Cool cool okay. Did Prowl kiss him? nope. It was one sided gestures#*gesture. That kiss didn’t make me feel like it’s truly something precious because Jazz started it but Prowl didn’t do quite the same#but this👆. This feels so much more important for me. Because Prowl#who is for the whole story was mister I calculate every chance of possible betrayal. Prowl whos entire personality is to trust nobody#Prowl goes. Fuck that I trust you. You feel me?#it wouldn’t be the same if he said I love you. Because love is very much something you don’t have a lot of control over.#but to trust someone? It’s a choice Prowl had to consciously make. You see what I mean? I love it. oh fuck I ran out of tags..

the thing about eliot spencer as a character, right. the thing about him.
(and as always your mileage may vary on my analyses so if we disagree that's cool actually)
is that he is in fact a somewhat emotionally constipated idiot who is occasionally sensitive about his perceived masculinity and gets defensive about emotional intimacy around other men (largely hardison, who's much more comfortable expressing affection and embracing a softer kind of masculinity), but eliot displays enough emotional awareness and sensitivity and respect for women etc etc that anyone who's been subjected to that era of television will put on rose-tinted glasses without even looking twice.
(and he is, don't get me wrong, incredibly emotionally aware for a professionally punchy guy with enough trauma to sink the titanic. it still startles me to see.)
on top of which we have the layers and the accessories and the excellent hair with the secret braids and the way he barely has an ego and he's good with kids and protective of his team without taking it too far, and some of us never stood a fucking chance.
#eliot#eliot spencer#orig#further discussion in further tags#I'm being perhaps a little critical and there are other ways to read eg the fragile masculinity moments#but I Do think they were intended this way and largely come across this way#I'm quite happy playing with a fanon eliot who's better at this shit is the thing? it feels faithful enough to the original.#but this is something I'm chewing over in a rewatch and it's interesting so far#the fact that he pretty consistently respects women doesn't stop him from treating men and women differently y'know?#the fact that his bantering with hardison expresses affection and gets quite soft over time#doesn't stop him from pushing hardison away on a semi-regular basis. often physically.#the fact that the fandom unanimously decided he's an utter gentleman in matters of dating#doesn't quite negate the time he physically stopped aimee from getting away when he wanted to talk to her#though that's one I might disregard because it's so early and I think they hadn't quite figured out the characters then#and it was admittedly a brief moment followed by very consensual happenings#perhaps. honestly. eliot may be reflecting the attitudes of the show here.#which were very progressive for the time and are still startling on several fronts now but also showing definite signs of age#arguably fanon eliot (as I understand him) is eliot adjusted for inflation. as it were.#there's a lot going on here I'm having a normal amount of thoughts about it I'm. stopping now

On the Jason as Uncle Ben variant—you’re response, you can’t do this to me! It’s making me more insane! After the Grey Ghost bit in LoF I thought of a crackpot theory of Uncle Ben being Bruce. And I was like no, Peter would recognize him(but the time is shifted and would he recognize that version?; probably, whatever). But his ages could line up(but what about the name change that’s inconsistent; handwave that). And your answer is throwing fuel on that fire I want to suppress
teehee :3 i might maybe have a plan and a reason for that... there are some variants that are not the *exact* same as the other. (Biggie and Benny, for example...) they don't look the exact same and they don't have the same stories, but fundamentally they are the same person. i played around with the multiverse. Even Peter looks different from a lot of Peter Parker variants. Sort of like how the three Peter Parkers in the one Holland movie are Peter, but all look different. I took some liberties to spice the story up ( ̄y▽, ̄)╭
#some variants DO look the exact same#because nothing had changed about their family line#but other variants are still like. same soul but different body#so that's why peter ha acted the way he has with bruce so far#“I instinctually can tell we're family and i have to mess with you”#but he had no idea#bruce wayne#ben parker#peter parker#there's also going to be a lot more later that shows that ben and bruce aren't all that different#it's just that circumstance prevented their stories from coming together...#circumstance: death#erinwantstowrite#ao3 fanfic#leap of faith ao3#ao3#thank you for the ask!

honestly i never really agreed with the popular shen qingqiu had a good shizun headcanon because if shen qingqiu actually had someone who he knew cared about him, he definitely wouldn’t have turned out the way he did in canon.

Me after finishing S1 of Dungeon Meshi: Yeah honestly that was pretty cool. A+ for the chimera Falin thing. All in all this is the kind of thing I can watch whenever an episode drops. The cooking with the hint of insanity/action
Me after reading the Dungeon Meshi manga: First of all, this manga is everything and I'm so glad it got even more "insane" as one might put it. That last arc is chef's kiss. Second of all, I understand why the people said the anime onlies aren't ready for what's coming. They're not.
#dungeon meshi#dungeon meshi manga#dungeon meshi anime#dungeon meshi manga spoilers#dungeon meshi spoilers#i just be ramblin#Tagged the spoiler tags just in case#I have a feeling that a lot of the people who got into Dungeon Meshi because it was popular or because it's their 'comfort cooking show in a#dungeon' are going to drop it if S2 comes out and is faithful to the manga

tim's dismissive quote about henchim tension following those very convoluted storylines buck tommy & eddie all got last night... i dont know. i wasnt feeling great about this season after 8x04 wrapped things up shoddily and now im just. really not optimistic about the show right now
#8x05 was such a great experience that my hopes returned but this has... renewed my dissatisfaction with tim's showrunning. i dont have a lot#of faith. which kills me because i love this show. but there's been so much fumbling--even for 911 standards--that i dont trust this season

don't ask me why, but me and my friend were talking about how carlos is going to be free from fraudrrari in less than 20 days and we ended up comparing him to the virgin mary (i swear it will make sense and we both grew up in christian italian families as atheists) and... how her given festivities actually add up with some of his important dates ??? buckle up!
‧˚
⭒ "Festa dell'Assunzione di Maria" — august 15 she was raised to eternal life without bodily death, and very close to it carlos announced he signed with williams.
⭒ "La Natività della Beata Vergine Maria" — she was born on september 8th, he was born on september 1st (BOTH VIRGOS)!
⭒ "L'Immacolata Concezione" — december 8th, "from the first moment of her conception, the Blessed Virgin Mary was, by the singular grace and privilege of Almighty God, and in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, Savior of Mankind, kept free from all stain of original sin."... and what happens on december 8th? his last race in fraudrrari, exactly.
she was the lightly brushed by melancholy blue print after all!
#il vaticano hates to see us drop this hits ngl#i show my hatred for this religion by blasphemingly ruining their iconographies with these posts😋#you thought you saw everything with carlos being san sebastiano NOW GET READY FOR CARLOS BEING THE VIRGIN MARY!!!!#another hit post if i know my chickens well#no but fr#what were the fucking odds of the dates being actually so similiar???#carlos sainz jr and christian iconography? sign me tf up#virgin mary#frauddrari's worst nightmare bc they're always comparing the other one to the pope and carlos gets compare to LUCIFERO#SAN SEBASTIANO#LA VERGINE MARIA#c'è chi puo' e chi non puo' 😮💨#carlos is just so mystical and lovable you can't help but compare him and worship him like a god#(he's just a man and im a 23yr old teenager with mental issues and a lot of time to think)#this being said#he also gave birth a lot this year#and he's finally about to be free of sin🥴#is this considered web weaving?#leave it to him to be so poetic in just living that my brain automatically does this#lando being god's lamb and him the virgin mary GET A BETTER DUO#maybe its because maria was always a figure that stuck with me more than anyone in the bible and her sufferings and her not having really#much of a choice in her life and having to accept her faith... idk#but this makes sense in my head#carlos sainz jr web weaving#carlos sainz jr#carlitos#cs55#f1#formula 1#carlando

tbh I think the reason I don’t care about iwtv the show being inaccurate is because I’ve been in fandom since at least age nine. Like I don’t care about accuracy, I want to see what you bring new to the table when it comes to this piece of art. And show iwtv gave me a lot, making both it and the book be refreshing in their own ways, having two different ways to tell a story about grief.
like I just view iwtv the show and iwtv the book like I view Greek mythology adaptations. Do you shame kaos for not being like hadestown and shame hadestown for not being like the original truly faithfully retold tales? It’s silly to me
#rambles#Iwtv#interview with the vampire#fandom#This isn’t a post bashing people who wanted a faithful retelling. I think that’s a completely fine thing to want#however I feel like automatically disregarding the show’s writing quality from it not being faithful is kinda sad. Not every change was mad#with the smug intention of trying to make a better version of what Anne rice wrote tbh#It just makes me lowkey quite sad. Both are insanely fun and have a lot to chew on

do you think annabeth gave percy the side of the oreo with more or less creme when they were in the zoo transport?
#some people prefer the side with less right? but she wouldn't know at that point whether percy did#would she had given him whatever side she enjoyed more as a silent show of good faith and appreciation?#or would she have realized from his eating habits at that point which he would appreciate more and went with that#regardless of her own personal preference?#orrr would she have been twelve and taken the side she preferred. giving him the worse side?#or would she have taken her preferred side bc she knew by then that he really wouldn't care?#i think about this a lot#percabeth#annabeth chase#percy jackson#pjo

I think maybe everyone should cool it with the “weird cult” comments regarding the covert, honestly. It wasn’t that funny to begin with but now that it’s the popular describer it’s starting to become a little uncomfy. No one is forced to join, no one is forced to stay. There’s a ton of parallels between them and real world cultures and religions and I just think MAYBE we need to be a little more aware of what message we’re sending when we say “haha that group of people who are in hiding because their lives were/are at stake and who practice anonymity to survive and follow certain rules that I don’t personally understand or like are a weird cult”.
#maybe we should lay off that word#I’m not the first person to say this obviously but now it’s starting to make me a little 😬#really wish this season had done what it should have and explored Din’s relationship with his faith#then maybe we’d learn more about the covert and Mandalorian culture and people wouldn’t feel the need to use this kind of language#they’re not a cult they’re just a group of people trying to survive in a universe that would prefer they did not#and that hits home for a lot of real people watching#anyway there’s that#the mandalorian#everyone a Din stan til we talk about how his faith is still a huge part of his character and his life#although the show really really needs to address how all of the events so far have changed his mindset#personally I don’t think he wants to leave his creed behind#but I think he would benefit from reevaluating what it means to him Now as opposed to when he took it as a child#the fact of the matter is: the covert and the creed are Important to Din on a fundamental level#would he enjoy you running around calling his family a cult? probs not#mine

not even trying to be rude, but if you hate lestat so much why do you even watch the show
Are you aware that there are other characters in this story
#char.txt#answered#i started watching this show for evil black people so jot that down#and yeah if jacob and/or assad left id stop watching or atleast caring so much#but haaaate is a strong word. im mostly annoyed. and mostly by fans than the character himself#i simply have no emotional investment in his personal story and yk that might change i have a lot of faith in the writers#but for now im gonna be over here falling in love with apparently every character anne rice decided she was bored with or hated

max and i are closing in on launching [redacted sports rpf charity fest] and i am once again pondering how do i write "experience with writing form emails and manipulating google forms in ways no one has dreamed of" in a cover letter without saying "i did it for the rpf grind"...like there's no way unless everyone in this microsoft teams meeting gets really cool about a bunch of stuff really quickly. you know
#IT LITERALLY CAME UP WHILE I WAS WRITING A COVER LETTER A COUPLE WEEKS AGO#AND IT WAS SUCH A BAD COVER LETTER BC IT WAS LIKE. I CAN DO THIS. I CAN BE A VIRTUAL PROGRAMMING MANAGER#I JUST CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW I CAME BY THESE SKILLS!!!!#i did not get an interview lmao. but we stay silly#like how do u frame ''community organizer'' when you're organizing. people on the internet to create rpf fanworks. for charity#lmaooooo oh well#me and max locking down our timeline last night and i'm like 😶 the thing i have wanted to do for years is finally happening#the universe tried to smite us multiple times in multiple ways. but we persisted. and it is happening!!!#last night i had to go to the grocery store at 9pm wearing short-shorts and an oversized t-shirt bc i was really like#if i don't get a coke in me right the fuck now i am going to end it all#procured coca-cola. drank it in the parking lot. recovered instantly. got on here and started posting#went to monday night service. last one bc after this week it'll be too late at night in est :(#it was such a nice global community to be apart of. people in 5 countries on four continents showed up almost every week!#not to be christian on main. but i love working with ecumenical organizations because i meet people all over the world#who have different ways of doing church and different interpretations of scripture and different takes on faith#and i always learn so much from people! good and bad lol sometimes it's like wow i will NOT be integrating that into my worldview#yo just under one week until i move 😵💫 i decided i am packing one (1) more box and then saying fuck it we ball#whatever i forgot has to go in the car. i cannot let myself be owned by cardboard boxes any longer#and soon. freedom. new start. new beginnings. someone said ''i hope you look at this as a time of new growth and unfolding'' to me#and i went man. i think i am#like the pine trees that reseed after a forest fire#fresno oilers.txt

oh did paul simms say something wildly homophobic about wwdits and/or nandermo again?
this is totally shocking and not at all part of the reason why I switched to writing original monsterfucking fic instead.
#wwdits tag#sometimes I feel like every good thing we've ever had in this show was despite the showrunner we currently have#I feel like a lot of the faith and hope I used to have for this show has kind of died off#I'm still going to watch season 6 and I genuinely hope it's hilarious and touching and everything I want it to be#like this show used to be#but idk I think it's just harder for me to get as excited about it now#boy do I hope I'm proven wrong#I guess I'll just keep writing things that I find emotionally fulfilling until I am
