Many women yearn for him, but the Lord's son who has just moved into the region is not at all interested in all this.

The thought of getting married never crossed his mind, he thought romance was a waste of time, something that got in the way of him pursuing his own goals.

But the moment he first talked to you, he seriously thought about putting an engagement ring on your finger.

Even for someone as important as him, you didn't lower your head in silence to his arrogance, quite the opposite, you managed to fight back in a way that left him silent.

And it's no exaggeration to say that you were constantly on his mind from that day on.

Everything about you seemed so different, he dares to say (think) he's never met anyone like you in his life.

Even though you were from a different social class than him, even though you are so indifferently in relation to things that involved him, or even at that moment, you left without uttering a single word after he expressed all his true feelings about you, he didn't want to give up on you.

He couldn't let someone as precious as a jewel slip through his hands like that.

Even after you rejected him, he couldn't stop thinking about you, and how you changed him completely; the way you make him feel, not even he, owner of his own feelings and thoughts, can describe the effect you have on him.

He no longer cares about his social position or yours, and he doesn't even care if his parents have found him a bride, he will continue to want only you.

Many people believed that it was not possible for someone as cold and haughty as him to be capable of loving anything in this world.

But many don't see how soft his gaze is when he looks at you.

— A/N: Some characters I mentioned here may seem a little ooc at first glance, but in my own interpretation of the film, Mr. Darcy seems to be much more of a socially awkward person than someone cruel and rude (even though he really is arrogant sometimes......😭)

MHA Headcannons, part 1

I headcannon that Shoji and Bakugo both share the interest in reading romance books. Even though it’s canon that Bakugo does, I’d still like to believe that Shoji does too. 

Also, I will also headcannon their types. There will be some dark content, but I think you guys will manage. 

...

Like, think about it: Bakugo may be reading books about the protagonist falling fot a brutish, hot tempered boy. Or just-just something in that direction.

I think that even though he sets his priorities of becoming the number one hero, the best, and stuff like that, pretty high. But I also think that he’d like to have someone by his side, accompanying him on his way to his goals. 

Somebody, who is willing to endure all his anger, his harsh words, and his maybe toxic behavior (we all have at least one, mine’s jealousy) with a smile -okay not always- and reassuring words. Comforting words, in a calm voice, a steady one, unwavering. 

A person who understands why he is the way he is, and who doesn’t cry when he attacks verbally. He wants somebody like that, but...he thinks that this kind of person only exists in the fictional world.

...

Shoji would be reading fantasy stuff or criminal romance novels. Why?

Fantasy for the main character to fall in love with a person who is either seen as- or looking like a “monster”, by criminal novels a person with a failed surgery or some accident and now a deformed face, looking all unnatural and scary. 

Unsightly. 

Ugly. 

Hideous. 

or even the protagonist could be the beast and still, that one special person falls for them, not caring about how the protagonist looks. 

He’d read such stories, because in those stories, the authors describe his worries and insecurities perfectly. And they let him fantasize about how nice it’d be if someone would be there for him. 

With unwavering love, unconditional and uncaring if he looks scary, ugly, or spooky. he’d like someone who’d rather go for the personality, who doesn’t judge based on looks. 

He’d also like to hear comforting words and soft spoken things said to him. He’d like a significant other who would give him advice on how to overcome his insecurities, or even somebody who also has a mutant type of quirk or also looks “scary”. In this post, I tried to make it a little easier for you to comprehend. 

All in all, I think that Shoji and Bakugo would be some sort of book buddies, who’d recommend each other books. 

...

I also headcannon that Shoji’s favourite disney movie was beauty and the beast solely because of the fact that Bell fell for the beast and not the prince, and second because she fucking preferred the beast. over. the. prince. 

I mean, I would too!

...

how was that? I hope you liked it. 

If you have also headcannons, let me know! Like, reblog and write what you think or write in the comments!

Until the next post!

[queerplatonicshipshowdown]

Round 3, Match 2

John Doe and Arthur Lester (Jarthur) from Malevolent vs. Rosé, York, and Grendan from Drawtectives!

Propaganda for Jarthur:

The inherent intimacy of having a guy (John) inside your (Arthur) head who you don't know the history or goals of but still bond over the atrocities you go through in your shared body. And sometimes he's an arsehole but you know that he wants the best for you and it's so much more than any other relationship they could have and in the end they always have eachother and I'm jealous of a sad British man and the voice in his head. They're friends and each others world and everything and I want what they have. OH DID I MENTION THAT ARTHUR IS FUCKINF BLIND AND JOHN IS HIS ONLY ACCESS TO SIGHT? IT'S BEAUTIFUL. Like John always takes such care to describe their surroundings (no seriously he starts waxing poetic). I mean yh he withholds it sometimes but every door has its issues. Anyways yh I love them and they deserve the world.

They are extremely close, both literally and figuratively. John is inside of Arthur's head, and they often fight in ways that have been referred to by the fans as 'divorce moments' but they still very clearly care about and love each other, in a way that is explicitely non-romantic. Their love is desperate and aching and they're not just friends, but they are definitely not dating, and a LOT of the fandom interprets them as queerplatonic.

Oh, the special kind of affection and friendship that can only bloom between a 1930s private detective and the eldritch entity that ends up possessing his eyes and left arm. 95% of this show is Arthur (the detective) bickering with John (the eldritch entity) like an old married couple, and falling in and out of trust with each other. Despite that they are both fiercely loyal to the other and by the point the podcast is at now they seem to trust each other implicitly - Arthur has to rely on John to guide him since John can see out of the eyes of their body and Arthur can't, but when they fall into an abandoned mine and are reunited (long story) they immediately fall back into that old, trusting rhythm. They share a body and their initial goal in the podcast is to be separated, but by the point we're at now they're not too fussed about it. They're making plans to go out to dinner and the movies. Also, Arthur is aro-coded - there's a big emotional arc that involves him accepting the fact that he never had romantic feelings for his wife, even during the birth of their child or her death, and how that doesn't make him a bad person or diminish the love he felt for that child.

Propaganda for Rosé, York, and Grendan:

they live together, work together, no romance, adopt a son together

[rgr-pop]

My goal for the year was to watch & log 100 movies. Shorts count, didn't matter whether I had seen them before, but they can only count once for the year. I logged 117!

First & last watched: Ken Russell's Women in Love (1969)--the reason I cared about movies so much this year, just an obvious life-changer for me--and Ken Russell's The Rainbow (1989)--Westlin's suggestion for the perfect round out. Surprised to be surprised by how good it was. Great films! Totally on the program! Questions to this day unanswered! Let's go!

Shorts (everything short of Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story) watched: 16

Favorite shorts: Nuit et Brouillard (Alain Resnais, 1956) (decided this year one of my all-time favorite films); Un Chant d'Amour (Jean Genet, 1950); Fireworks (Kenneth Anger, 1947)

Next year my shorts watching will be more programmatic

Films I watched twice in 2023: Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story (Todd Haynes, 1987) (another film I realized this year obviously belongs in my top ten--more specifically I decided finally that this is my favorite non-Texas Chain Saw film); Beau is Afraid (Ari Aster, 2023); The Nightmare Before Christmas (Henry Selick, 1993)

By decade: Before 1900: 0 1900 - 1910: 1 1910 - 1919: 1 1920 - 1929: 1 bro come ON what the FUCK 1930 - 1939: 1 im literally evil 1940 - 1949: 7 1950 - 1959: 3 1960 - 1969: 24 1970 - 1979: 14 1980 - 1989: 16 1990 - 1999: 17 2000 - 2009: 13 2010 - 2019: 9 2020 - 2023: 10

By nation/language roughly: uk/english: 6 us/english: 66 canada/english: 6 france/french: 10 italy/italian: 4 italy/france/french: 1 italy/english: 1 czechoslovakia/czech: 5 palestine/arabic: 3 soviet/russian: 2 russia/russian: 1 austria/german: 1 austria/french: 1 spain/spanish: 1 japan/japanese: 1 poland/yiddish: 1 poland/polish: 1 senegal/wolof: 1 brazil/portuguese: 1 sweden/swedish: 1 eur/farsi: 1 south africa/afrikaans: 1

numbers not adding up there but w/e

By director: Not sure if this is surprising or totally unsurprising, but in spite of my auteurial talk (and all the thematic/completionist plans I like to make), I very rarely watched more than two movies by the same director. I can't decide how I feel about this, nor do I know how to proceed this year given that my goal is to discover who my top five directors might actually be. How do you go about investigating that?

Overwhelmingly the director I watched the most was Adrian Lyne, with five films. I have a few more things to work on but I'm close to done with my shakedown/theory. Neither my favorite director nor favorite guy, I would say I probably 'enjoy' and 'personally get more out of watching' his films more than most. In second place, I watched three Kenneth Anger films--all shorts of course. I watched two films each by the following directors: Ken Russell, David Cronenberg, Stanley Kubrick, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Paul Schrader, Bernardo Bertolucci, Ti West, Todd Haynes, Michael Haneke, Jan Švankmajer (both shorts), and Billy Wilder (one of which being a war department documentary short).

I have mixed feelings about this approach (let me watch man movies if i I want to!) but a quick skim suggests I watched about 15 films directed by women (12%)--lower than expected and probably low for me typically. I always have a romance habit on the backburner so it's never hard for me to watch a lot of movies by women, but obviously my focus on revered directors I never previously wanted to spend time on has had an impact here, meaning I should make an effort with Great women directors in 2024 to keep that in check. I will also say that I specifically recall having a hard time getting my hands on things I wanted to watch by women in a few different cases, including by Great women directors (Barbara Hammer and Akerman), and especially also soviet women directors. There's an overlap here with difficulty accessing short films!

I'm not an active or thoughtful starrer, but these are the films I watched in 2023 that I've given five stars to:

Women in Love (Ken Russell, 1969) (upgraded from four after the year of appreciating it) Mandabi (Ousmane Sembène, 1968) Crash (David Cronenberg, 1996) Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story (Todd Haynes, 1987) The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (Tobe Hooper, 1974) Night and Fog (Alain Resnais, 1956) Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom (Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1975) (demoted Teorema [1968] to four stars to prevent Salo is A Perfect Film deflation) Un Chant d'Amour (Jean Genet, 1950)

Least favorite films watched in 2023: Jojo Rabbit (Taika Waititi, 2019), Barbie (Greta Gerwig, 2023), All My Good Countrymen (Vojtěch Jasný, 1968), Zahrada (Jan Švankmajer, 1968), the one streaming true crime doc I watched that I then had to log (will not repeat in 2024)

Loved/treats for me: Barry Lyndon, Crossing Delancey, Unfaithful, The Cremator, The Night Porter, Cabaret, talking to people about Funny Games and realizing I love it more than I think I do

Recommended for the romance girls as a thank you for the good romance you have recommended me: Habibi (Susan Youssef, 2011)

Most incredible movie experience of the year by miles and I can only hope 2024 has something this good to offer: House of 1000 Corpses (Rob Zombie, 2003) anniversary screening my birthweek

The otherwise defining film of 2023 for me: Hostel (Eli Roth, 2005)

Onward! Back to work! On the Terror and Violence line! The Family is out there, comfortable, in relative peace…

Incoming wall of nonsense. Please disregard if you don't care to answer.

So during the holidays I kept getting this commercial for this romance movie ( thanks Hallmark) about a girl texting the wrong person who happens to be some dude. I am assuming they fall in love after they keep having a conversation even though they don't meet each other till later.

I know that the timeline(era) in Gotham is seriously convoluted with them using typewriters then the next episode they have cell phones. Just imagine that f!reader accidentally texted one of the twins. For Jerome it would be while he is either still in the circus sharing his frustration and pain about his mother or while he is in Arkham (I am taking liberties about how he has a cellphone in the asylum 🙃) pre resurrection or post.

For Jeremiah, it could also be during his days at St. Ignatius (I have another prompt about when he is in school) or when he is hiding (that bunker boy needs SOME social interaction) talking about his insane twin brother. I can't really see him texting someone post spray since he has only one goal in mind BUT I think it would be nice for him to stay in contact venting when he gets frustrated with Ecco's clinginess or whenever his plans fall apart. I haven't really gotten ideas on how they get to meet after they develop feelings over text yet. Do you think this would be interesting or is this just a whole mess and not worth making?

Hugs and much love.

Hi!!! I loved it! Really, I found it pretty interesting and I really hope that you will like it. 🤭 Sorry for making you wait so much. 🥺

Beginning with a text

● Jerome Valeska ●

It all began with a message, a simple "Hi" that led to so much more.

A simple "Hi" that led to many more messages exchanged between a shy young girl locked in what had become a wonderful but strange friendship since it was only based on knowing the personality and not the physical appearance of the person still hidden behind the screens of two cell phones. 

A simple "Hi" symbol of change of more than one life. Symbol of a special union that began as nothing.

Y/n knew that it was not entirely safe because of the city she lived in but also because she knew that one had to be careful to avoid an unpleasant end but it all seemed so normal that it made her continue by deepening her knowledge of this person, a boy according to what he had told her.

A boy who lived in the circus, who needed a distraction, an outlet from his so cruel and sad life that he was living in what was his personal prison i.e. the circus and his relationship with his family.

He was confined but this exchange of messages made him strangely free.

The same was happening to Y/n, also confined but by something else, not the circus but her home, her shyness, her teen years.

The two talked to each other every day, knew the times when they could text each other but waited and checked impatiently for a response anyway.

The more time passed the more this little thing, little interaction, meant so much more becoming almost indispensable to both of them.

It was an escape full of emotions and exchanges: exchanging advice, questions, secrets, complains and phone calls.

All without ever knowing the physical appearance of the person they were talking to.

Without certainty.

Sure truths and meetings.

Despite everything, however, the feelings were sincere, a friendship based just on personality, exchanges, interactions and knowing their voice.

That was enough to spark something between them in their hearts that led them to meet somewhere for the first time after quite some time that they had been hearing each other.

Y/n showed up at the given place and time, looking around.

.

■ Jeremiah Valeska ■

One evening, one word to create the beginning of what had become an unusual friendship. 

Y/n, a young girl who happened to text an unknown number and then began to converse with them for a while despite the fact that at first they did not respond right away. It could be weeks before someone responded to her message but that all changed as time passed, the messages became more frequent and the two began to get to know each other more and more.

Y/n did not know if it was the truth or a lie but time made it difficult to stop the interactions and the young man they were texting with was willing to text even at night, apparently his sleep schedule was not very accurate or healthy.

The two young people talked about personal things, Xander telling her about his worries while finding relief in reading that she also had problems with paranoia and anxiety.

It was a kind of outlet for both of them, both of them needed a way to get away from reality and Xander needed human interactions even though he tried to lie to himself; he was a secretive, anxious, paranoid and frightened person but he needed all that despite the fact that he had been trying to hide from the world for several years in his bunker.

Y/n needed a friend just as much as he needed one and so their conversations continued for quite some time until the fateful day of their first meeting arrived. 

It was a somewhat suspicious meeting according to Y/n but she wanted to believe in it so she showed up at that rather isolated place, waiting.

S/I Questions Based off Songs I Keep Thinking About ! ✨

I wanted to answer questions about my s/is and ya know. I have a lot of songs stuck in my head so. Why not! Thought it'd be fun for others to do too ❤️ (including spotify links to all the songs used as well!)

These can also be used for ocs as well clearly, I just used s/i here!

Remember to include the s/i you're asking about if there's multiple ones to choose from! And also to practice reblog karma!

MANIAC - If your s/i is in a relationship, what is it like? Is it a sweet, soft romance, or is it more an enemies to lovers type deal? Or is it something different entirely?

HARROW - Would your s/i ever kill someone? Or have they already done so? Why? And if they haven't, why might they do so?

BRING IT ON - What role does your s/i take in the story? A hero? Or maybe they're a villain? Or maybe they're just a side character/npc/etc? Or maybe they're completely unrelated to it? Whatever it is, feel free to share!

BACKDRAFT - Is there anything your s/i deeply regrets? Something they wish they could change or fix?

THIS IS HOW TO BE IN LOVE WITH YOU - What's your s/i's love language? Do they have anyone they love and care about deeply, whether it be romantically, platonically, familial, etc.?

BOP BOP! - What's a song or songs you would use to describe your s/i?

APPLE - Is there anything your s/i deeply desires? Could be a person, object, feeling, dream, anything. Just whatever they're deepest desire may be.

MAGO - Does your s/i have a hidden side they only show to certain people? Or maybe hobbies or things they enjoy doing they hide? Just anything they don't show about themselves in every day lives.

YUME NO KAKERA ~ ROMANTICO - Does your s/i have any dreams they wish to accomplish? Or perhaps any they've given up on?

PERFECT TRIUMPH - What causes your s/i to keep moving forward and going on? What is it they fight for? That motivates them?

DIAMONDS TURN BLACK - Is there any assumptions people make have about your s/i by just looking at them? And are they true or inaccurate?

CINEMA - Does your s/i have a favorite movie? Or any sort of media that they love? If that's not something they have in their world/time period, what do you think their favorites would be if they were put into the current day world?

ALLERGY - What are some insecurities your s/i has about themselves?

QUEENCARD - Alternatively, what are things your s/i is very confident about in themselves?

CHANGE MY FUTURE - If your s/i could wish for anything, anything in the world, what would it be?

UNDEAD FIRE - What's an event in your s/i's life that changed the course of their life forever - whether it be for the better or the worse?

OVERDRIVE - Is there any place your s/i wants to travel to? Who would they go with if they did?

ANTIFRAGILE - How strong is your s/i? You can interpret this as either mentally or physically, or both if you so desire.

ODDS N' ENDS - Is there something your s/i would do anything to accomplish? Even if it meant going to extremes? No matter if they're a hero, villain, etc. , just how far would they be willing to go for their goals?

[runawaycarouselhorse]

Have you done any watches of the pokemon arcs and talked about them? Someone I'm mutuals with discussed doing that for AG arc. I'm considering doing it for the DP arc since I still consider it my favorite arc in the franchise.

Aww, sorry, I was a child getting into fandom when AG was starting in Japan, social media was at its infancy too... i didn't even have a livejournal yet. I don't do full series rewatches either. But I am very fond of the Contest arc, Haruka/May and Masato/Max, the humour, and the warm and tropical colour palettes. I also adored the hoso specials (the Side Stories that got dubbed as Pokemon Chronicles, although the dubs for those were... infamously much worse than the TV series in script quality and accuracy), I used to downloa the specials and watch them in Japanese while slowly learning Japanese bit by bit because no subbing group took Pokemon seriously enough to sub it outside of banned episodes, specials, and movies...

It was a unique time, I think!

Rescue Ralts! Hurry, Masato!/Do I Hear a Ralts? remains one of the best episodes of the anime, period. The Wishing star of Seven Nights: Jirachi was my old favourite pokemon movie before Lucario!! I love that the dub kept KAORI's singing for May and part of Chiisaki Mono in Japanese.

AG is criminally underrated, despite introducing concepts popular in fandom, like Hadou/Aura. Satoshi apologizing to Lucario after seeing his memory of apparently being abandoned by Aaron was the turning point for me where I truly felt Satoshi mature as a person and become much kinder and more patient. He was so prone to fighting people, he was much more of a (pint-sized) hotblooded shounen protagonist before that, but I adore the all-loving hero he grew into. How he helped Hikozaru/Chimchar heal in DP, how patiently he dealt with both Shinji/Paul and Shootie/Trip being jerks to varying degrees compared to the way he was before (solution: run screaming and throw himself at whatever problem exists, fists flying), the growth I personally cared about was visible even in the first episode of BW! where he's annoyed or exasperated by what he encounters, but keeps his temper in check and just makes faces in disapproval, fff.

He can still, of course, fight those who deserve it, like Largo's bullies and Sauboh/Faba.

So, yeah, I loved AG! It also has one of the only battles to ever excite me (anyone who knows me, knows I HATE Pokemon battles, they make my eyes glaze over... it's just not interesting to me unless a fight has, like, swords or something—I really do watch Pokemon more for the cute friendship stories, ships*, and idealized humans living in harmony with nature and other non-human creatures setting)... it was Haruka VS Shuu in the kanto Grand Festival! I was literally on the edge of my seat. I loved seeing her surpass him and his little look of approval and smile before she went from concern to happily celebrating with Wakashamo/Combusken. They had a beautiful story arc going from him looking down on her (while gifting roses like he's harboring a secret crush, fff), to respecting her as an equal, even dropping the -kun honorific he used to use after her name, when he saw her as a kouhai/underclassman and himself as her senpai/upperclassman, and moved to calling her just "Haruka"... after she saved his life, I believe!

I feel like that was Pokemon's best written romance amongst th main characters, it didn't overtake her story arc, it added to it and she still had her goals outside of that, it only added to her growth and story. ^^ It was innocent and sweet.

I am convinced that "for Agehunto/Beautifly" line is how Satoshi saw through Kasumi/Misty's lie in the final series.

I also adore the episode were Haruka and Nyasu/Meowth go back in time and save a man's life and improve a whole town (?) by doing so. It was a fun, moving episode.

The dub harmed this a bit with music choices and voice acting, but from the look of things, people still found it quite emotional (I still vastly prefer the original, no contest!), so Arbok and Weezing's release episode. Interesting that poacher Ryo/Rico was one of the last criminals shown using a real world gun and modern day weapon... maybe also because it doesn't look familiar to a lot of people as a real firearm...

*I got into Pokemon and Sailor Moon via a Rocketshipping fanfic set in the Silver Millenium when I knew nothing of both series and was used to only reading Harry Potter fanfic as an 11 year old! The secret backstory, pffft. So I watched for TR. ^^

I used to review Best Wishes! episodes, the earliest reviews were on my livejournal ( http://inkedfeathers.livejournal.com ), later mini reviews were on my now deleted tumblr blogs, but some reblogs exist... some DP episodes too! BW! was my favourite.

Do you believe im Ko-Chan und Akane-Chan supremacy?

I’m sorry for the late reply. I’ve been up to my ears in work lately and I needed some time as English is not my mother tongue. I hope I understood your question correctly. If by "supremacy" you mean do I believe in Shinkane then my answer is yes, of course. I guess my blog betrays my true feelings for this ship ;)

I’m very excited about Providence and would like to use this opportunity to express my thoughts and expectations. I must admit that I’m out of practice when it comes to writing, but this is my first Ask and I want to make an effort. I really enjoyed writing about this ship in the past and I’m still in love with their dynamics. Hopefully the muse hasn’t left me yet.

From what I saw in the trailer, it looks as if Akane and Kogami will once again work together as a team and solve a case that will bring to light another mystery of the Sibyl System. We’ve been waiting quite a long time for this to happen, but it remains to be seen whether their relationship will also develop in a romantic way. I really hope so, even though Shiotani keeps emphazising that PP is not a Shoujo anime. The authors will probably just drop a few breadcrumbs here and there and we’ll have to read between the lines to understand the personal motivations and relationships of our characters – but who knows?

I think Akane and Kogami’s relationship is very complex and it's always fun to watch them work together and mature. Despite their different opinions and occasional disputes, their actions were always proof of how deeply these two care for each other. Not only have they always tried to protect the other from physical harm/death but also they have always supported each other mentally in times of doubt. There’s mutual trust and respect. And there’s this insanely powerful connection between them, this spark they can ignite in each other, even if they're miles apart. Kogami was subject to Akane’s influence while he was living abroad in war zones. His firm belief in her righteousness and the fact that his revenge led him into exile made him reflect more closely on moral duties. On the other hand, Akane developed this peculiar habit of lighting Spinels that helped her solve cases in Tokyo. There’s also this bittersweet scene in the PP movie where Akane finds a paperback of Proust: she immediately associates it with Kogami, takes it home and therefore withholds evidence. The authors have taken great pains to avoid the stereotypical portrayal of romance but the message gets across anyway if you pay attention.

Providence will very likely focus on their professional teamwork. Still, it will be exciting to see how they approach each other after all this time – and not just because of their mutual attraction that seems to become clearer with each new story. They both have matured on their individual journey, and they both have changed. Akane has gotten quite tough and she is more committed than ever to changing the Sibyl System and society for the better. She still rejects violence and strictly adheres to the law. While Kogami admires her for it, these are qualities which he himself does not possess. After he killed Makishima, Kogami had to survive for a long time in a lawless world and he wandered around there without any real goals. I had the impression that he hated his new life and eventually got weary. Akane's sense of justice has always been the magnetic north of his compass, so if there was someone who could provide him with a sense of purpose again it would be her – or some task associated with her. I really hope that he’s willing to get his life back on track this time.

(-Did you come back to fight violence with violence?

- I’m just doing what needs to be done. I don’t have any regrets.)

The phone call probably occurs at the beginning of the movie and I bet you that it was Kogami trying to get in touch with Akane for the first time. The atmosphere is tense and it provides a good starting point for the hero’s journey. One of the basic dramaturgical recipes in PP has always been Akane and Kogami pursuing the same goal while favouring different approaches. Personally, I think this is due to the different realities of their lives and individual experiences. As an enforcer and mercenary, Kogami was always in a position of powerlessness and only violence could help him change a situation. Akane, on the other hand, was able to seek peaceful solutions because of her relationship with the system by either slapping Sibyl’s wrist or negotiating deals. Moreover, it seems as if Akane has worked her way up on the job ladder since she is now shown as a supervising inspector. Kogami is still in the dark about Sibyl’s true nature or Akane’s dangerous ties to the system, so I think we’re looking forward to some kind of collision here.

Kogami seems a bit depressed during the conversation and the falling rain enhances the impression. It’s unrealistic to expect that he could immediately reconnect with his friends after all this time but man, does he have to be so bad at making conversation or saying sorry? He’s lying through his teeth when he says that he doesn’t regret anything. He’s full of regrets but as always his pride prevents him from being honest. I have long suspected that PP actually stands for "pride and prejudice" as Kogami seems to have no idea how to handle his own wants and needs or Akane’s newly acquired toughness. But you don’t have to be a profiler to know the reason why Akane acts so business-like and tough: she seems to protect herself emotionally because she didn’t do so in the past and therefore got her heart broken.

Kogami should have known that Akane won’t be thrilled to bits. She probably worries whether or not Kogami was only allowed to return to Japan to do the "dirty work" for Sibyl. We know from SS that Akane doesn’t trust Frederika or Foreign Affairs. There’s a lot of competition between their ministries and the SAD is a brand new unit whose mission is still unclear. You can’t blame Akane for being suspicious and wondering what to make of this. However, given the development of his character, I think Kogami won’t let himself be used for fights he doesn't believe in ever again. But I'm not so naive as to think that he suddenly stops doing what he always does (fighting fire with fire or whatever the fate of Kei’s brother may be) and be good, especially when he comes under emotional pressure or has to defend his idealism. Akane knows that he can’t help it. Of course she knows.

 (-The next time you violate the law, I will stop you no matter what.

-Even so, I’ll believe in you who strives for righteousness.)

I think Akane says that more to herself. She must have realized that his return has the potential to become a great burden for her. She has a soft spot for Kogami and she knows it. She has proven more than once that she is willing to put herself in jeopardy for him and as much as she despises his illegal actions, she has never held him accountable. At the present time, she would have to use a dominator or arrest him. Both options would put Kogami at the mercy of the Sibyl System and that’s exactly what she has always wanted to avoid. Now that he’s back, she must be afraid that Sibyl may only spare his life as long as he complies and makes himself useful. Kogami created chaos in everything he did and the system is notoriously unforgiving. But not Akane. She has always tried to protect Kogami either by letting him go or by warding off an overly harsh judgement. Considering that, it’s kind of crazy that he of all people always emphasizes Akane’s sense of justice. Objectively speaking, she let a murderer go because she has feelings for him and knew that Sibyl would execute him. That’s why Kogami looks so pathetic every time he begs for condemnation. He must know that he’ll never get it from her.

Anyway, a collaboration between the PSB and SAD seems to be under way and they will probably meet regularly in the future. Keeping Sibyl in check and ensuring justice is Akane’s second full-time job. She has enough on her plate already and she certainly doesn’t want to babysit Kogami, who she knows will neglect his duties whenever he feels like it. I wouldn’t be surprised if we get to see Kogami disobeying Frederika’s orders in Providence just so he can support Akane and follow the path of her "righteousness". As always, he’ll wreak havoc on the mission and his life will probably hang by a thread again causing a distraction for Akane who will then be compelled to save him from one of Sibyl’s crazy minions. She’ll go to jail for this, but we all know she will forgive him in the end. I can’t wait to see something like that in Providence. These two are practically made for each other. Try and convince me otherwise!

(-Will you come with me?

-Even if you told me not to, I will follow you.)

Be still my beating heart. I’ve always believed that Akane and Kogami are more than just colleagues. The romantic subplot has always been there given that Japanese culture is based on subtlety. Japanese people love to beat around the bush. Admittedly, Akane’s girlish demeanour in PP1 gave the impression that it might only be a one-sided and immature crush, but once Akane began to mature as a result of the Makishima case, their romance gained momentum. I’m glad she never broke the habit of looking at Kogami with dreamy wide eyes. It’s quite adorable and reminiscent of their early days as inspector and subordinate.

Some people think that Kogami only recognizes his younger self in Akane and that for him their relationship is merely platonic. His idealization of Akane raises questions, though. It’s clear that he has irrevocably changed and will never go back to his old self. I don’t even think he wants to. He respects Akane as his equal but considers her sense of justice superior to his or anyone else’s. In the PP movie, we witnessed how carefully he weighted every word she said when they talked on the balcony at night. He shielded her from the explosion without a second thought and the first thing he did when the camp was under attack was to help her escape. He always treats Akane with extreme care and priority. And if that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know, bear in mind that Kogami refers to Akane as her in the novel – as if he were sanctifying her. His character is not easily understood but I think it’s obvious that he has feelings for Akane. And from what I saw in FI and the new trailer, it seems that he no longer wants to hide them.

"Even if you told me not to, I will follow you". Kogami can be absolutely stubborn and persistent. He has already proven that in PP1 when he was chasing after Makishima. He was far too busy and selfish to be considerate of other people’s feelings back then and he didn’t let Akane’s warning get through to him. He had to learn the hard way. There’s something about this snipped that reminds me of Natsume Soseki’s "The moon is beautiful tonight, isn’t it?" to which the answer is: "I can die happy." Both are confessions of love. By saying that he would follow Akane unconditionally, Kogami reveals his real motives for the first time. And no, I don’t think he’s doing that as atonement for his crimes. He has undergone a transformation in SS which allows him to stop running away and "take responsibility". He had strayed far from the straight and narrow and it added to his loneliness and made him unhappy. Frederika recognized that. She must also have recognized that Kogami feels drawn to Akane and that he has found hope through his encounter with Tenzing. So, wherever their path may lead, I think he’s willing to die for Akane and become a happy man.

And as far as Akane is concerned: Kogami has always been the person she trusted the most and I really hope he becomes Akane’s ally. I’d love to see her laugh and find some happiness in this crazy world. She has secluded herself from friends and family over the course of the series and she absolutely needs someone to open up to plus a shoulder to lean on. She should no longer be a lonesome queen. Providence could be a first step in that direction and whatever happens between them as colleagues, friends or lovers, I expect it to be very important for their character arc. Kogami will probably learn to hold back and try to see the world through Akane’s eyes. And since we already know that Akane will end up in jail, it would be interesting to see if her policy might change in the future. Will she lose her influence over Sibyl? Will she be able to hold on to her non-violent way of life if it means she can no longer ensure justice and create change in the system? A system that won’t stop its Machiavellian practices and has begun to spread its tentacles all over the world? In PP3 Akane says something akin to "justice must be enforced, even if it disrupts a peaceful society." It doesn't sound vindictive or bitter, just reasonable.

The system despises both Akane and Kogami. They have demonstrated time and again that they would rather act according to their own principles than blindly follow orders. This is not in the interest of an authoritarian system. We learned in SS that Akane is being observed by the higher-ups since SEAUn. My gut feeling is that we should probably not trust Atsushi Shindou who has been portrayed as a Sibyl enthusiast in PP3 and who seems to have practiced strange mind manipulation techniques as an inspector. But what do I know? However, I’m pretty sure that the authors won’t be able to avoid showing the romantic side of their relationship in PP4. After the ending of FI it would come across as very artificial and forced.

Gosh, this answer has developed into a novel! I don’t know if you enjoyed my rambling analysis but I’ve always loved this little fandom and it feels good to be back! I want to thank steoh @mochidoodle for the translation of the trailer which I have quoted above in brackets.

🍍🍦🍟

ty!!!

🍍 What do you love to eat to feel better when sick?

fruit 100%. i am a fruit lover (shocker) so if i dont feel good i usually go for fruits bc they dont tend to upset my stomach and theyre lighter than a full meal or vegetables or anything else. also fruit smoothies >>>>

🍟 What is a book or movie quote you never forgot?

fun fact but this was actually my senior quote but i love this one (from fahrenheit 451) "We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?"

personally, it speaks a lot to how insignificant a lot of peoples problems are. like im a person who thrives off passion projects and things i love and can care ab/formulate detailed opinions on, and a lot of people really have no desire for that, or just havent found something they care ab. it just has a lot of meanings to me

🍦 Do you think it's wrong to write aiming for fame and a huge fandom?

not exactly wrong but more,, uninspired ig. people aiming for fame tend to do it in a very textbook way, which really reduces the quality of what they're producing. unfortunately, depending on what recipe they use, a lot of people will still love it, but theres just no heart in it. like all the current popular romance books are literal dog shit (and i dont really like assigning good and bad labels to media, but they are just That Bad) but people like that kind of bs. its just super algorithm-tailored and makes it not worth interacting w or reading (which is why a lot of the time the plan fails anyway bc nobody likes it). overall i think people can write for whatever goal they want, and people are allowed to be inspired and motivated by any potential outcomes (like fame and a big fandom), but if thats the only reason they do it, then why are you going through the trouble of writing at all? if you just want fame and people to love you/your ideas there are a lot of other ways to do it

[champmorado]

I'm so sorry this is going to be SO long.

Uhm welcome to the LightningStorm Club!!!

So like, their dynamic is super special to me especially since it just makes sense?

And no it's not just your typical enemies to lovers, but also two characters being able to understand one another and comfort eachother because of that.

Storm is much like rookie Lightning in which he didn't want to work with anyone, didn't trust anyone, and was a one man show. And I'm super sad Cars 3 didn't have Lightning realize the similarities between their personalities.

I feel like Lightning could definitely teach Storm a thing or two. Their personalities are SUPER similar. In which they were both extremely ageist and only cared about winning. That was their goal.

Another thing that bothers me is when people blame Storm for crashing Lightning. Lightning had a mid life crisis, and pushed himself too hard. Something I don't see people talking about.

I actually feel like Storm blames himself for the crash and that could also go super heavy into their relationship.

I don't think Storm hates McQueen. And I don't think McQueen hates Storm. He just hasn't realized how similar they are. They could understand each other so well, so so well. If someone just told McQueen that he should give Storm a chance, like they gave him a chance, they'd probably be super close.

I feel like Storm secretly looks up to McQueen and is slightly intimidated by him. He wants to impress him. And I feel like the stuff he said to McQueen was out of panic, we know from his story that he's just not good with people and interacting with them.

When it comes to enemies to lovers, the beautiful thing about it is the story you can tell. You can explain how they warm up to each other, what they learn about each other, who falls first, how close they get to be as friends, and then the eventual confession

Again, I don't think they hate each other, they just need to understand each other, bond on the fact that friendships can be difficult and trusting people is hard, but its something that can be done.

Both of them aren't good with friendships and trust and that's heavily shown in their books and the movies/shows. I think their relationship would be rocky, but they'd still enjoy each other's company.

As for general head canons.

I feel like McQueen loves board games and Storm loves video games, so they can bond over that and show each other their versions of entertainment.

I feel like they could bond over nerdy things like dinosaurs and aliens and zombies.

They teach each other how to be patient, which is something they both need to learn.

I feel like Storm would fall first, and confess to McQueen in the stupidest way possible.

Lightning plans most of the dates because I feel like he's more experienced and romantic and into romance then Storm.

Storm loves to show his appreciation by cooking and helping clean and organize.

Their eating habits are different, but they try to come to a compromise.

I'll write more but this is SO long already 😭!!! (I have head canons on my page!! If you wanna snoop through go ahead :))

This ship means SO much to me, there's so so many possibilities with them, you just really have to try to dig into who they are as people and how it could help them grow together!!

I GET IT NOW 🤯🤯🤯🤯 /genuine

and your headcanons are so cute, im obsessed!!!!

[frenziedslashers]

Can we get an nsfw alphabet for Timtam?

We sure can!

I was going to post a couple of other fics tonight but my wifi keeps crashing so y'all just get the Timothy NSFW headcanons

Timothy Lawrence NSFT Alphabet:

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Timothy is super sweet when it comes to after care. He's making sure that you're cleaned up and alright, along with cleaning himself up and making sure he's alright (he's in disbelief that he's not dreaming or in heaven when the two of you have sex for the first time). He likes to ramble a little when the both of you are just lying there, sort of dozing off. He gets super affectionate and likes to tell you how good you made him feel and how much he likes or loves you, depending on how deep into a relationship you guys are in. Overall 10/10 aftercare.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Partners: His favorite body part on you would have to be either your face or hands. He likes your face because well, you're just stunning. He loves looking at it and being able to tell people that you're who he kisses every night. He likes your hands because, well... You make him feel pretty good with them. He also likes your hair if you have any, I believe he's a hair puller. He also likes any mark that you have on you. Freckles, scars, moles, etc. He tells you to never take them for granted because they are what makes you who you are.

Himself: He doesn't really have a part of his body that he likes. None of it is his, why should he like it? The only thing he likes about it is the fact that he can feel and see you with what he has. He likes if you reassure him that he's handsome and that you like him for who he is, not who he looks like.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Timothy does like cumming on you. A little more than he would like to admit. Something about seeing you all marked up cause of him gets him going. Plus it was something he learned in the porn industry. He likes cumming on your back, stomach, and thighs the most. One of his favorite things is when you cum on him, though.

Female anatomy: If he can make you squirt, bu golly you're in for a treat. That'll be his goal each and every time he fucks you. He's quite the people pleaser, and plus he's heard from others that it's almost a huge accomplishment to make most with female anatomy cum that hard. So, it's one of his favorite things to witness you do.

Male anatomy: He also likes it if you cum on him. The both of your messes combining together. Again, he couldn't tell you why. He just likes the thought behind it and the act of it's own. He's also super into you cumming in his mouth. The look on your face while he's starring at you from in between your thighs? God, it's beautiful.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs) 

He learned quite a bit from the porn industry, so after you and him break the awkward stage he's got a ton of tricks up his sleeve. Being Handsome Jack wasn't that bad of a thing when it came to this department at least. He's into about anything, and really likes getting a little rough in bed. Sometimes he even forgets he's a doppelgänger in these mindsets so it allows him to feel like himself for once.

 E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

This one was tricky for me to decide. He gives off the sort of vibes that he did fuck around in college, but he also gives off the vibes that he was more of a romance sort of guy. So I'm gonna say before he became Jacks doppelgänger he had sex a few times, but not many. After becoming the doppelgänger he's a lot more experienced giving that one, he's Jack and people seem to take a liking to him. And two, he was in the porn industry to make promotional "movies" for Jack so he gained experience from that. He knows what he's doing, but honestly if you have female anatomy you might have to tell him where the clit is.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

He has a lot, really.

Missionary: He likes the intimacy behind it, plus if you're into choking it gives him easy access to your neck.

Doggy: When he gets a little rough, especially if he's a little jealous. He likes this position so he can hold your hips and just go to town on you. Plus it's easy hair pulling access and he can wrap his hand around your throat and pull you against his chest while whispering dirty things in your ear.

Cowgirl: He loves seeing you ontop of him. The view is spectacular and it allows him to take a break when he gets a little stressed.

Mating Fold: Something about this position just get's him going. Having you all folded up and able to fill. Plus he just loves the view, and the ability to squeeze on your thighs and hips. He loves the bruises he leaves behind.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

He can be, but it depends on his mood and if he's mad/stressed or not. He does like cracking jokes or making snide remarks here or there. He can be a sarcastic guy if he wants to be.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He is pretty well groomed. He has to be in the first place so he looks presentable and he doesn't get killed for being "not like Jack". He also does it because it makes him feel clean and better about himself. If it gets too long he feels uncomfortable and itchy down there.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He can be a very intimate guy. He loves to be open with you and tell you how he feels. Telling you every little thing he loves about you, how good you make him feel, how much he loves you. He's doing everything in his power to let you know that you are super special to him and that he wants to make you feel just as loves and blissful as you make him feel. He can be a super sappy and romantic guy if he tries.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

I really don't think he Jacks off a lot. Something about him just seems like he overthinks the whole process and afterwords it makes him feel gross and lonesome. Especially if he masturbates thinking about someone. He does it once in a blue moon when he just can't stand it anymore and he needs to let off some steam.

When the two of you get together he doesn't mind some mutual masturbation here or there if you're into it. Something about him watching you get off, while you watch him get off, has his hips jerking like no other. He's also pretty into the both of you getting each other off with your hands, or 69ing.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Light BDSM: He likes causing slight bits of pain towards you and especially himself. It gives him something to feel and it was something he picked up in the industry that stuck with him. Spankings, Hair pulling, and Biting are his top three. He likes watching you yelp and lurch forward when these things are done to you. He also likes the feeling himself due to the fact that it's hurting Jacks "body" and the pain just seems to excite him.

Marking: He loves leaving marks on you to show everyone in the world who you belong to. He especially likes it when you both have hickeys that others can see when you're both out in public. Showing everyone that you're his and he's yours. It gives him this power complex that has his ego skyrocketing. Especially if he catches people staring at them.

Orgasm Control: He likes it especially when you're the one who tells him to cum or tells him not to cum yet. He could be fucking you into oblivion and in a Dom-mood, but if you told him to cum he'd crumble for you. So long as he isn't upset with you.

Overstimulation: He loves it. He likes hearing you whine after he's fucked you into multiple orgasms. Claiming you can't take it anymore while you try to push him away. He will stop if you use your guys' safe word or touch (in case you go non-verbal or can't get the word out), but if not he's gonna keep going at it. He especially loves it when he's giving you oral and you have to shove his head away.

Lingerie: Timothy loves it when you dress up nice for him, but he especially loves it when you wear lingerie for him. Not only does it make him feel special because you're wearing it for his eyes and his eyes only, but they just make you look so good and he almost doesn't want to take them off of you. Some nights he doesn't either. He simply moves them to the side while he fucks you.

Slight Breeding Kink: I think that he likes the thought of kids, really. He likes the hope and idea that the kids will turn out to look like him and not Jack. He likes the thought that he would be the one who made them with you, and not Jack. It's one of the things he hopes and prays that Hyperion didn't take away from him if the two of you do decide to have any kids. It also has to do a lot with his marking kink as well.

Praise: Praise this man to the moon and back and he will be on you like a skag in heat. He loves hearing you tell him that he's perfect the way he is. Reassuring him that you love him and telling him how good he looks. Especially if he does something new that isn't like Jack. Like growing his hair out and letting it gray. He loves it when you make comments pointing out stuff that is uniquely him. Truly gets him going the most.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Anyplace at home. He likes the safety and security of it. His favorite spots are the couch, bed, walls, shower, and the bathroom sink so he can bend you over it and make you watch.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

He's pretty easy to get going, I mean have you seen the way he is with Moxxi? When he likes someone, he is down BAD. Some things to make sure he's in the mood are lingerie, getting dressed up for him, praising him, leaving a hickey on his neck, sitting on his lap, bossing him around and pulling his hair are some good ways to get him turned on.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Degradation is his biggest turn off, especially towards himself. It makes him feel worse about himself than he already does.

Another big turn off is being compared to Jack. He doesn't want to be Jack, he wants to be himself. He simply took on the job to help get out of debt from student loans.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

His preference is giving head. He absolutely loves the reward of you becoming a whimpering mess while he has you on his tongue. Especially if you sit on his face. He could die there and he'd die the happiest man alive. He's a learner and will find all the ways that make you see stars.

He does love it when you give him head though. He'd just rather pleasure you. If he does feel rather jealous one day because a guy looked or talked to you the wrong way while the both of you were in public this is a good way to put him in a better mood. He doesn't think you'll leave him, he just hates that people can't get the message that you're taken.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Again, depends on his mood. He's really either or. He does like taking his time and being a little rough with you though.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

He's down for anything, especially if you're the one to initiate it, so he's almost always down for a quickie. He'll take you anytime anywhere if you ask.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

Yeah he's into experimenting. The only thing he won't try is voyerism and exhibitionism. He hates the thought of other people seeing your body or touching it in a sexual way.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Timothy can go for a long time. I feel like when they changed his body they did something to alter his stamina to give Jack a better name if Timothy were to have sex with anyone. Especially since they had him make pornos for them. So he has really good stamina and will definitely fuck you until you're ready to quit for the night.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Timothy doesn't really own any toys, but he's not against using them in bed. You'd have to bring up the idea and provide them though. He'd be too intimidated to buy any to use on you or himself.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

He can get into it and tease a lot on night, and the next night not tease at all. It's sort of a guessing game for him and how needy he is.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

He tends to suppress a lot of noises that he makes, but he can get a little vocal the needier he gets. If you blue ball him a lot then he gets pretty vocal. If you take the reigns and boss him around in bed he can get pretty vocal then, too. If he gets super into it no matter if he's in a Dom or sub mood he'll start rambling praise one way or another. He's just so blissed out it's all he can do.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

I headcanon that the first time with him he winds up being unsure how to initiate it since for the longest time he was getting laid through the fact that he was a porn star. So he ends up accidentally quoting one of his lines from one of the films he did and you either catch it or wind up cringing and he ends up freaking out and just deciding he's never getting laid again after messing it up with you. Unless you prove him wrong by initiating things, he's probably going to give up for the night out of embarrassment.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

This is up to you guys to decide.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

It's pretty high when he's with you. He's down for it anytime of day if you even suggest it jokingly. He's easily worked up and has the stamina of Zeus himself so you better be prepared for him being a needy bastard some days. He won't pressure you if you don't want it, but the offer is always on the table.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

It takes him a while to fall asleep after you both get done. He has to let his mind calm down before he can actually doze off, but he spends the time holding you and listening to you breathe if you fall asleep. Or talking to you if you take a while to fall asleep to. He's going to lay with you no matter how long it takes him to fall asleep though.

YOU'RE SO RIGHT SO RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING ABOUT THAT

Stoik was NOT a good father in the first movie until LITERALLY he thought Hiccup had died. Which means that had Hiccup NOT gone through an incredibly traumatic experience Stoik would have still been like that! Had Hiccup not risked and sacrificed his life for people that canonically didn't care about him (he never owed them that, honestly I wouldn't have blamed him if he didn't go to help) he would likely have been driven out of the town!

And AND AND how they downplayed Toothless's character in the last movie still upsets me like, in the first movie he's treated like a very smart but wild animal (which he IS). In the second movie Toothless goes from more animal to more separate person who has goals that align with Hiccup. In the third movie?

"oh haha look at this silly dragon he just wants a girlfriend. let's watch him abandon the person that saved his life and has lived as best friends for years because we gotta have that romance".

Like one of the background music in the movie name's is "forbidden friendship" because EVERYTHING happens because they both choose to become friends. Not because Hiccup "tames/controls" toothless and not because Toothless did the same to Hiccup.

They REALLY changed Stoik's character in the third movie. Like Stoik in the first was practically ready to lock hiccup up if he "stepped out of line" too much (Hiccup only got some level of freedom because he lied. Totally a healthy loving relationship). In the third movie the memory scene makes it seem like they were friendly, which like Hiccup was afraid of Stoik in the first movie?? In MULTIPLE scenes not just a few key ones?

sorry for the rant but YEAH YOU'RE RIGHT AND THERE'S A LOT TO BE SAID HERE AND AERLKGMALEKRMG

you and me are shaking hands about Stoick being a bad fuckin dad good lord. i hated his ass in the first movie when i was younger, i was like what are you my MOM ? ? ? what IS this bullshit??

i dont know whats worse retconning Stoick as a good dad, or implying that he used to be kind and gentle with with Hiccup but at some point began treating him like trash along with the rest of the village. oughagsdghahhgghh

female authors and men who recommend them

everytime a woman says they are only reading a book or consuming certain media cause a male pop star said he personally likes it my heart fades away all of woman kind weeps

It can be true but the patriarchy is strong enough no need to even say stuff like that.

Especially cause a lot of times the books are written by female authors. I wonder is it is the fame association or the fact that its men giving stuff validity. I think the goal of men reading women centric work is to understand women better and the fans want to know what the guy likes but many never give an actual opinion.

Even if they did the point is to form your own opinion which will never be the same as a mans not really.

4 example a looooong time ago when I was a teen kji was still recommending books to fans back when fans read actual books. A lot of girls got sprung by the fact that he read a korean translation of me before you

( I only watched the movie and ended up reading the second book cause finnick from hunger games and khalessi from game of thrones was in it) but it was a big deal at the timw.

Now and days it is really not in the sm ent image to be intellectual for some reason, I suppose fans don't like that idk.

Many thought of it as a...indicator of him being..idk romantic.

Which..is possible but actually looking back in his old interviews he basically said he mainly read books to imagine himself in the main role he said this many times.

So he generally has little interest reading books he wouldn't want to be in. Me before you was a tragic romance which is basically his entire acting career. Andante, he cared for ill people the entire drama and his girlfriend who passes away. Spring has come, he cared for his girlfriends family and eventually his sick mother. Miracle that we met, literally played an angel...guardian angel..like that's very obvious.

Even the superm show as we wish where for like the first time ever the managers said the members get to create the mini dramas they want to star in.

Mark even reenacted his parents engagement story. Kji ended up doing a tragic romance that included memory loss and a car accident. It lowkey is neverending cause he even made it clear he hates romance but talked about a romance movie from the 70s he watched....where the fiance died.

Bonus round he only has writing credits on one song and it makes a reference to this movie. A very obvious reference.

Some people like what they like for very specific reasons. Even if you read the book or watch the movie you can't feel how they felt while consuming that same thing. It is good to pass on likes or learn of new things from people but its your own personal experience that matters.

I love watching golden girls because I think old people are like large adult babies who can talk, most people would never know thats basically the only reason I watched the show so many times.

This stuff although is there to just figure out but I think many assume korean is so hard to understand and confusing we must rely on social media to tell us who the kdolls are. 1stly tv interviews say much more than fansubs and fandoms. Many people do say a lot about who they are but many people read more fanfic than interviews. Some read both but the fandom version is more fun. I can say this cause I read kpop fanfic since like 2014 neve got in the way of like me knowing real personalities and fandom creations. This is shots fired for some people at least but kji isn't really shy..sm made him shy. He was super go getting and excited back in 2012 . Some may disagree that this was fake and the real him is shy, but I disagree, outside of Korea is usually when he's more talkative both to strangers and in general. Now it's reserved for the fans and outside of that he was typically mum. Nobody saw that kji again until at least a year into super m. Not simply clowning around but speaking his peace and defending himself and sharing his opinions.

In super m he got to be loud and obnoxious without censor because that's "American style" promotion. Cool guys can also be funny and total jerks yet still well liked in America.

yes he is an anxious person but not shy and introvert is a stretch.

Shy baby bear jongin at least to the degree it's been sold is giving noona fanservice I'm sorry. Anyone can be shy at any given moment but shy as in a personality trait is a bit much for anyone who's an idols and literally interacts with new people everyday.

I LOVE pseudoscience and feel like many things in pseudoscience are very accurate and have a lot of truth in them. But personality tests are iffy at best and go only surface level of what makes up a person. I also don't believe the basis of the test is ... good either

It's important to note that it was made to pigeon hole women more than actually discover who a person truly was on the inside.

Those personality test are inaccurate on multiple levels, please research many books debunking the extrovert introvert myth similar to animals personality changes with environment and comfortability. The same shy person in New York can be an extrovert in Los Angeles. Also personal experiences can craft a person's being extroverted or introverted. It's not a 100 percent set thing that can't change...complete myth..one that America and a lot of first world countries have latched onto in the name of faux tribalism.

For multiple reasons I keep referring to other sources to expound upon the fact that it gives me major ick people can't see how gross the origins of a Eurocentric world war two control device to dehumanize women SHOULD NOT be used as an accurate test of any kind and it's based off of a very immoral and inhuman type of thinking. I highly recommend reading this for appropriate cultural scope. I think it's better explained by these author's.

The craze to me was honestly a bit scary with how many people quickly latched onto these labels and identified themselves like, for so many reasons nooo! It's really ick to me for lots of reasons, yes it's fun but many people label idols like this. Rare types and common types, introverts and extroverts and it's like the idols begin to play more into the roles they were assigned.

Jongin being branded as an introvert(the offstage version of exo kai still a character btw) was to I believe sell a certain image to the fans. Introverts don't go out to clubs and party with girls and their friends, they stay quiet and text on bubble and act like they are texting their middle school clique. It always gives I don't know anybody here guys come get me. Yet that obviously can't happen but it creates that illusion and further deepens the bond.

At a certain point kji just stopped really saying much cause the bear bear image is what people cared about. I remember early on he explained how much he didn't like fanservice but he would try to get better. Basically I think he may have liked the book because of it having a caretaker in it and he likes that caretaker role. Most visible when he's with kids.

He as a person has that as a strong part of his character. I wish people would try to look at things a little deeper. If one does feel the need to get something or consume something just like their fave did at least maybe one form your own opinion and enjoy your own personal experience first and foremost but also understand why that other person likes that thing. People like men written by women more than the women who write them. Understand it takes a lot of positive influence from women to make a man like that. I.e the mother and other older female role models.
