#i love roasting my characters

[raymurata]

perhaps the most impossible ask: reasons why oak is problematic

See, I was just talking to @skullhaver and @ghosty-ana about that.

And here's the thing, Oak falls in love in 3 days, man. Next question.

Lol. XD but like, I'm not joking, they're ready to peel tangerines for Gal, and they've known each other for a month and flirted for literally 3 days. This fucking idiot has no chill, they're gonna u-haul Gal within six months of this relationship, if Gal lets them. 😂 They have so much love to give they might suffocate Gal with it. They'll try not to. XD A complete fool, a clingy buffoon, um tolo romântico.

And they don't let anyone sleep because they're such a blabbermouth. Problematic for the Moonlighters and Galsariad in particular. Also, they cry at the drop of a hat. They cry over everything and then some.

Class consciousness overkill? Too woke for their time, anachronistic; bad indigenous rep bc they have taken on the colonizer religion and also technology and magic. Also I didn't research the patterns on their clothes enough or choose any one culture to base myself on, I just made my own fantasy culture adding onto CR lore ( adding more nuance to CR lore).

And as Liv pointed out, they have an extremely badly calibrated love and friendship care bear beam xD The little guy (gender neutral) just spills out people's shit in the gentlest yet most brutal ways possible, and then just look cute and like, no one ever gets mad at them. They do think that being adorable and whimsy will get them far -- they know very well how to be serious and gloom, but you catch more flies with honey. Please protect me I am small. Also, can you give me a hug? -puppy eyes- Little shit knows exactly how irresistibly sweet they are.

Also, they fit the "child-like, innocent, uwu asexual character" trope. And not only that, an ace character whose backstory touches heavily on the matter of sex. I'm pretty sure a lot of people would come for my neck (others would relate, I hope. I try my best to handle this with utmost care and proper narrative weight, like everything else in Tarlyn's story), so like, yeah, oof.

Problematic little guy would get canceled or infantilized by the fandom.

Finally, they smoke tobacco. Like, everyone has to have an irredeemable flaw, amirite?

[egophiliac]

C'MON TO THE THEATER!

I love these guys so much. forget NRC, I want to attend their terrible disaster school for disaster children that might actually be plastered on top of the smoking remains of an actively sinking ship. I may or may not actually learn anything, but I will have the time of my life.

[arttsuka]

Based on somewhat real events

I spent way too much time drawing this...

But yeah, Ford finally saying thank you

A continuation (kinda)

"rhaenys could have ended the war by dracarysing all the greens right there" yes because a distant relation to the throne deciding to barbecue an anointed and publicly positively hailed king and his entire family who is well loved within the city and in multiple other parts of the country for the sake of the succession of a far-away princess no one was ever on board with who hasn't been seen by the populace in literal years, her psycho husband, her three obvious bastards, and two toddlers from the psycho husband would go over super well with westeros and especially in king's landing where scores of the still-cheering population were killed for no reason by that same dragon who would do the barbecuing, because when targaryens act unilaterally without thinking of how the people would react there's never any problem, which is why the storming of the dragonpit and robert's rebellion were actually just collective delusions dreamed up by readers who hate rhaenyra and not key parts of the story and house targaryen's history that directly contributed to their demise and are intrinsic to the plot

truly team black stans are made up of only the most genius and media literate amongst us

[pinazee]

Heres a poll cause why not

*edit* ignore the title, im clearly not well versed on fandom words lol i simply meant —>

Favorite hatchetfield not canon ship

I didnt include ted/ tinky or paul/pokey just cause it seems one sided?? Idk whats going on there tbh

Nor did i include pete/richie because i already included michie and flipschitz and of the three it looked like that was the least popular

Also i think wilbur/mcnamara are technically sort of implied canon? So thats why its not listed either

Gary/linda wasn’t included because ive only ever seen ppl talk about it as a “gary is the father of one of her kids” theory and not really as a romance (though the speed with which he was ready to worship her should not be overlooked 😏)

Theres a lot of random pairing ya’ll i tried.

on the scale of jiangcheng to shenjiu how well adjusted are u as an adult

[sourle]

Hello! A bit of a goofy and funny request I have in mind!

Any phighter in your choice w/ gender neutral reader hcs who would say the most diabolical and wild insults and roasts to the other team whenever they lost a round, especially if it’s a 13x or 6.66 round (and being a sore loser).

And ty for your time and have a good day/night ☺️

Nah! This is a really really goofy idea! Hehe, the reader is a savage short cake

You happily squeak as the board shows the round. Seeing as you're an MVP and plus announcing the next round is a 6.66x! What a great day to be on the field!

It was NOT a great day to be in the field. You tried your best to help your teammates win, but every time you tried to recommend them a position to be in they refused to listen and got oof'd by the other team.

You don't really like how the enemies are much stronger. At first you were calm, after 5-6 times of losing you are over it. The moment the score board shows the other team is the winner you started to complain. Soon that complaint turns into insult to the other team.

Calling Subspace a nerd, Medkit a lazy butt, Rocket motherless, etc. Boombox, who's on your team, always had to hold you back from jumping at Rocket as Sword held his friend back from trying to murder you at the lobby.

At one time, you lost a 13x and became a feral demon. Let's just say the next few rounds you and your team won. But at a single loss after the winning streak, you started to roast the other team, Turning them into grilled steak.

Vinestaff just sighs and says "I can't defend you this time." While both Sword and Medkit held Rocket back from doing something he regretted. You didn't care and just brushed them off earning a huffed from Banhammer. He's clearly annoyed at you.

Boombox just stood there with an open jaw after the most jaw dropping rap-roast you gave the other team. Slingshot tried to calm you down as Scythe just watched in amusement.

This is not a good one.. I'm not proud of it. But i can still say i love it. Does that make sense?

[lambcow]

Them: can I talk to you

Me: no, I'm busy

Them: it will only take a moment

Me: yes, well, my moments are limited and currently all accounted for

Me: schedule an appointment

formerly an essay in tags but - billie lurk. half-nameless, misremembered woman. her powers derived from the things taken from her, without any catharsis or empowerment. the rat charm, tied with deidre's hair, her lover's voice in the mouth of rats. her arm and eye, taken, given back only to cause her chronic pain, then lost again. foresight seems a cruel gift for a woman who botched the timing of her takeover of the whalers, and bet wrong when it came to delilah.

she never bore the outsider's blessing; his first visit to her was more like an assault. every other dishonored POV character gets the choice to be selfish, and for that selfishness to mean something, but billie's actions have no effect on the world at large, either, in a game without a chaos system.

some say that corvo is the ghost, but he can reach out and change things. billie's buried herself twice and come back and nothing she does seems to matter - she is less a protagonist, more a convenient full stop in the narrative.

try this: open doto, start a new game. sit in her cabin. notice how little of billie there is. even the woman she loved more than anyone has the face of another named character.

she sits amongst the assets of other games: empty canvases and a dressmaker's mannequin that wears nothing.

It is objectively at least a little funny to me when people draw Crocodile super muscular 'cause like, sure, his torso may be as wide as a brick wall, but y'all seen his arms and legs?

They're skinny as shit, this man has never lifted a thing in his entire life, he probably doesn't even know how to run. Like Oda can draw people with muscular limbs, this shit's intentional

[discocandles]

I was looking through batfam fake tweets and social media aus(again), and thanks to the lovely @thevernofficial I have been brought to make this.

The batkids and how they ended up watching mbav(plus the character they feel the strongest about):

Tim: so following with the tweet, Tim had a crush on Erica watching mbav as a kid. He tries to say he relates more to Ethan, but the shit your brain comes up with could only come from Benny, Tim.

Steph: also watched Mbav as a kid. She had a crush on Sarah, but the character she feels strongest about is Jesse, because she fucking hates Jesse("you're not like other humans now, Sarah." "Yeah, and who caused that, dipshit?"). she flips off the tv any time she Jesse pops up. Her favorite character is absolutely Rory tho.

Cass: was forced to binge the movie and both seasons by Steph. The most she reacted was to the fight scenes. "A kick to the knee would work better." Later, Tim asked about her favorite character. "Evelyn. Kicks ass." which fair.

Duke: he watched a few episodes of mbav as a kid, but was later forced to watch it entirely by tim and steph(tim was offended he wasn't included in the first binge-fest). After the first 10 minutes, he said "you will have to physically hold me back from saying babe every 7 minutes." "Duke, no". He actually relates to Ethan most, due to his self-preservation(rather the shared lack thereof)

Jason: walked in on the first forced binge, and watched from the doorway for two episodes, then left. He walked into the second one too but cut his losses and sat down. Tim wishes he hadn't, as he was commenting on basically everything. Jesse comes back from the dead and Jason yells "Ha! you aren't special motherfucker!"

Dick: only started watching mbav to roast tim, bc he's a horrid brother living to embarrass people, especially if it his siblings. (Tim really wishes he could shut up on twitter, or that twitter would stop reminding him hes a dumbass). He delights in the camp, and constantly connects mbav to buffy. nobody really enjoys dick comparing mbav to buffy, especially since he's the only person who watched buffy the vampire slayer in its entirety.

Damian: Damian has actively watched 3 episodes of my babysitters a vampire, and for the other parts of binge fest 2 he was just drawing in his sketchbook. His favorite character is Ethan, as he is the easiest to draw, but his best drawing was of Sarah when she was possessed. He hates drawing Rory's shirts.

Neither Bruce nor Alfred have seen more than 5 minutes of my babysitter's a vampire in total. Probably for the best.

Top 5 Favorite Digital Circus Characters

I would do a top 10, but I'm tired, and 4 characters keep switching places between 6th and 10th, sooooo...top 5

------

5th: Bubble: He's freaking hilarious and adorable. I love the little dude, I hope he gets more screentime in the future

4th and 3rd. Chad and Max

Goofballs. Loveable goofballs that deserve the world. I think I like Max a bit more, but I love them both

2nd: Caine

Oh boy... a divisive one. Yes, I'm pissed at him for what he did to Gummigoo... but I dont think he had any ill intent. I think he just doesn't understand. He didn't understand that Gummigoo was sentient. He didn't understand Pomni cared about him. He just didn't understand humans. He's an AI, and he's learning, but he's not great at it. That being said, I do think he could grow from this. As for why he's my second favorite...well, he's hilarious for one. Two, I just really think he has the best intentions. He wants everyone to be happy. He's just... bad at his job. I can't wait to see where he goes from here

1st. Gummigoo

Poor and precious Gummigoo. I don't know exactly what happened to him, but I'm HOPING he remembers everything and is ok. I so desperately want him to show up again and get to live at the circus. Him and Pomni deserve to be friends. His whole character arc in episode two was just...chef's kiss. His character, in general, is just chef's kiss. He's basically perfect, and I love him with all my heart. I truly hope we get to see more of him. I am currently obsessed with him

Oh, and he's hot. There's that too.

...Okmovingon

TIER LIST TIME

B: Bubble

A: Chad, Max, Caine

S: Gummigoo

8.28.2023 // it's her!!! it's aoi!!! aka just.. just a. really unlikable type of person.

[gentil-minou]

i've been thinking about why i find wei wuxian's pov so easy and fun to write for and i think it's because of how relatable he is in the most unrelatable way

because none of us have ever fought in a war or sacrificed something the way he did and make up an entire new method of doing something or died and been resurrected or anything, but most of us have at some point been so driven to do something because of a strong conviction that it was the right thing, regardless of what it was, until we lose control of it in a way that backfires terribly

that's what i find so wonderful about wwx, he's just so inherently good but the world is not so inevitably he fails based because the world is not, and how often have we been thwarted like that in real life? l

like i think of my career as a therapist and how it's all about good intentions except i cant control everything so inevitably there are failures. like its so inevitable and it's so real, so wwx's story of losing it all and then gaining it back through such strife and pain is so real even though its so fantastical

it's also why i cant agree with portrayals of him as some infallible character, whether or not mxtx herself says it, because the very nature of being infallible is a mistake that speaks only of hubris and future misery, an icarus flying too close to the sun.

but i love that about him, and by the end of the series he has learned that as well, and grown to accommodate his faults by relying on others. thats what i love about wei wuxian
