do you think some people have a different view of swag and entre than how they really are?? like mischaracterizing them

this is a very loaded question because if i say yes then i come off as entitled or like im ungrateful or people get paranoid they’re the ones im talking about

but i’ll say it like this: no one is ever gonna get a character 100% “canon” besides the person (or people) in charge of writing them because everyone has their own life experiences, cultures, morals, and other things that will always shift their point of view compared to someone else’s

so basically it’s like. Yeah sometimes! but does it bother me? not really because it’s them having fun and as long as nobody’s trying to sell it like it’s The Real Deal, unironically saying they know my chara better than me, or making entre in particular do anything i personally heavily disagree with as a principle/upsets me then it’s whatever

art is supposed to be subjective anyways, and like i know otherwise with other media im a stickler for things like characterization, when it comes to my own it’s like…idk! a lot of the time im like “i wouldn’t have thought abt it like that, but i can see where you’d get that idea” and its kinda cool

sometimes it genuinely inspires me to change or adjust things in my charas even if i’m Really vibing

Its so funny thinking about the different things people know me as in the yokai watch fandom. That one person who loves Babblong. The Roughraff guy. The one who drew way too much Casanuva at one point. The one with the goofy aus. One of the three (3) McKraken fans. Or when I used to be a Zote Hollow Knight/Captain Charlie Pikmin account (if you know me from those days DAMN)

coming out as a passive jopper hater bc the insane level of capitalist pandering they did with s3 (with ERICA who is like. one of the worst, stereotyped portrayals of a black girl ive ever seen, bless her heart) was truly crazy. combine that with the copaganda and the general attitude of hopper in s3 which was played off as 'awkward loser guy doesnt know what to do with Feelings more at 8' was a bit .... Eh :/ to me. because it is so obviously a fictional character and show but like. disliking hopper/jopper bc of the ideals st is perpetuating and the fact that they arent compatible at All in s3 (to me, atleast) is valid. some ppl might just think that jopper is unhealthy and/or 'overrated'. because they do sort of pay a disproportionate amount of attention to jopper, compared to the other canon romantic ships (afaik, bc of the screen time counter) and that can be Weird, esp with the... how should i say this? balancer/savior role hopper takes in the relationship (we constantly see him placating joyce, sometimes even being slightly patronizing, and also they place a lot of importance on him saving joyce from a lot of stuff, which is cool and sick if it wasnt for the fact that it directly correlates with him being a cop, yk). and the general power imbalance bc he's a Cop and abuses his position of power constantly, and that is exactly Why anything that joyce does is seen as a #insane girlboss category 5 woman moment because she simply has the short stick in the power race and when she does manage to make an impact DESPITE her economic/social/'general uselessness in say in Major decision-making when it comes to authorities' shortcomings it is seen as an amazing win. hopper on his own is extremely fleshed out as well, because we get to see his arc play out with his relationships with his daughter and ex-wife and el and re-learning how to be a parent and how to not let love allude him, and that is lovely! it's so great to see the adults in the show being focused on! but joyce is absolutely disregarded and underdeveloped as a character of her own right outside of her relationships with hopper or her kids. we see that she is determined and a force to be reckoned with and that she cares very deeply for the people she loves and would go to insane lengths for them but all that doesn't Mean anything, because we never see a backstory for her. we never figure out who she is without her family or hopper, or what her motives and aspirations and emotional shortcomings and stumbles and mistakes are. for a character to be fully fleshed out, they need to be an interesting, refreshing and palatable character On Their Own without their relationships with other characters, and we just don't see that with joyce. like u have Thee winona ryder on ur show, and u forsake developing her character in favor of developing hopper's character with /not the best taste/ and causing her to be a blank slate of a mother, lover, woman and friend, but not a PERSON. all she's been reduced to is a Mother and Hopper's Girlfriend, and honestly, that's the worst decision they could've made in relation to her and her relationship with hopper.

anyway, all this to say; these are my thoughts on the matter, but i'm definitely not hating on people who enjoy jopper passively and DEFINITELY not any by/ler (the most predominant fandom im part of in the parent fandom of st) who enjoys them as a ship with their own dynamic separate from canon. because the by/ler fandom is NOT a monolith and nobody is obligated to agree with me or change their opinion if it doesn't align with mine or be forced to look at my opinion and feel bad for shipping anything. im not going to act Holier Than Thou for expressing my opinion and u should definitely continue shipping jopper if it makes u happy! as long everybody recognizes the copaganda and capitalist mindset grind propaganda shit in st (which is Pretty Obvious) and respects that while shipping what they want, i have no problem with it. all that is to say; peace and fucking love. can we (the by/ler fandom) stop fighting abt jopper we all have our own opinions this is bc we are Not a hivemind or a monolith and not obligated to have the same opinions relating to all aspects of st just because we happen to ship one thing. i am a hater and a lover

Gorgeous boy. Idc what people say, his webttore design is wonderful. Find me a man in genshin who looks just like webttore. That's right. He's an icon. A true king. A true no-toxic masculinity king with his pink bowtie.

Mochi... Mochi can I borrow your hands for a sec– Dang why are all of you so fricking talented I cannot– each fricking time I get art from either 🐠 or mochi I turn to a pillow and plunge my face into the void so that I won't release The Screams™️ into the outer world.

I'm so torn about how to finish school. like I can do an absolutely bonkers june and just be done but risk running myself ragged because it's 3 days a week plus my actual full time job (and that's just showing up for class nvm assignments/participation) OR I can do a fall class but the idea of extending my stay in academia six months past when I could be done is dealing psychic damage all on its own

I am percieving, so here we go, for Metis: 3 and 4 for starters but also 1!

oh my goodness oomfie hii thank you for the ask!! ♥️

for my girlie metis

1. What circumstances led to your Dark Urge becoming their Class/Subclass?

Since her past is a jumbled mess, Metis wants to believe she was, and still is, a simple Selûnite. The visions of torn flesh and blood; Metis will try convincing herself they are the fractured memory of her initiation. Once she’s met Orin, however, she realizes those flashing images depict the night she slaughtered her adoptive parents and sibling, before wandering out into the dark where she eventually crossed paths with two senior Selûnite clerics. They took in her appearance and decided she must be a child of Selûne, her bright silver eyes and the white streaks in her jet black hair seen as the touch of the Goddess. Metis was then raised to be a Life Domain cleric, ever struggling between her heart’s desire, to help and heal, and her Urge’s sick fixations.

3. What would your Dark Urge consider to be their greatest skill? Is this accurate?

On the outside, Metis seems stoic and quiet. The only time the gang has seen her smiling or laughing was during the tiefling party (or any soft moments she shares with Shadowheart, who Metis is extremely enraptured by). However, as quiet as she may be, Metis has a way of breaking down the walls of those around her, I would label this as her greatest skill. Regardless of the companion or their morals, Metis can surely convince them to take the right path (or at least, the path with the least possibility to trigger her Urges in that moment). She has a soft confidence about her that I think some of the companions are especially drawn to. If asked herself, Metis would say her greatest skill is her connection to Selûne, and the powers granted by the Moonmaiden as she greatly relies on them to fend off her murderous fantasies. I can definitely envision her furiously praying at her bedroll whenever she feels the Urge creeping back in. The first night her prayers failed was the night Alfira joined camp.

4. What would your Dark Urge consider to be their greatest flaw? Is this accurate?

Metis would definitely say the Urge itself is her greatest flaw. I definitely see her attacking Sceleritas the night he finds Durge, until he can convince her that he really knows her (then he has a purpose, she’s like Hmm what info can I get out of you…). If she could only be rid of these torturous thoughts, she’s sure she could focus on her true purpose as a cleric and, of course, getting rid of the tadpole, but she doesn’t fully understand how strongly bonded to Bhaal she is. (Yet). And though she is heavily troubled by her dark urges, they have come to be useful when dealing with the most unsavory characters in the realms, and for getting Metis through the more horrifying moments in their journey. I would say Metis’ greatest flaw is that she lets fear consume her, specifically her fear that the Urge will take over and she will become something unrecognizable. The more she tries to suppress it, the worse it gets and she’s terrified, always looking to her faith for reassurance. As much as she tries to keep her feelings hidden, there are definitely some companions who notice this uncertain side of her.
