+ .✦ i need your love so bad



abby anderson x fem reader
↣ took a little scroll through the abby tag and noticed almost no fluff so i'm filling that void with girlfriend!abby headcanons hehe
*+:。.。 warnings / kissing, established relationship, very self indulgent oops, ow*n
𝄞 need your love so bad - fleetwood mac
author's note: this is my first tlou fic pls dont kill me if it sucks

+ you were definitely the first girl abby ever dated. the only other experience with dating she had was ow*n... so you obviously had to swoop in and show her what she was missing out on.
+ i know deep in my heart and soul that abby would hold your face when she kissed you. not your waist, or your neck, or your back. no. she would genty cradle your face, studying your features before leaning in and pressing her soft lips against yours.
+ she gives the BEST bear hugs ever, especially after a long patrol. she'll sneak into your room and just collapse against you, one arm wrapped tightly around your middle while the other cradled your head.
+ it's literally canon that abby smells of pine and every time i remember that all i can think of is cuddling with her after she showers while you both ramble to each other about anything and everything.
+ you read to each other!!! as a huge bookworm, i love the idea of just cozying up with abby in the library as she reads to you and vice versa. sometimes you'll both end up falling asleep halfway through a chapter only for manny to find you both way later.
+ adding onto that, you'd find literally any excuse to listen to her voice. whether that would be asking her questions about patrol, books, working out, etc. she's too oblivious to realise you aren't even paying attention half the time.
+ she would remember even the littlest of things about you. it can range from your favourite book to the colour of your socks on monday. she has an insanely good memory but only when it comes to you.
+ unpopular opinion but i don't think abby would work out with you. hear me out on this; i think she would prefer to have some alone time and what other place to do that than the gym! it's nothing against you, it's just that she likes to focus on working out.
+ if you offered to braid her hair when you just started dating, i think she would say no but at least let you brush it. however, once you two were together for a good while, it felt like second nature to come up to you, hairbrush in hand, with a knowing smile on her face.
+ you would play with her hair any chance you could. sometimes she would fall asleep with her head in your lap and you'd slowly untangle the braid she had in, raking your fingers through her hair as a way to soothe yourself.
+ the way abby looks at you makes you swoon every. damn. time. it could be during patrol, when you read to her, or even when you're eating. she looks at you with so much love. every time you catch her eyes you feel butterflies in your stomach.
+ i think abby would be very comfortable saying 'i love you'. she would prefer say how she feels rather than show you. it's important you hear the words so they can be engraved in your mind.
+ abby is scary. she has huge muscles, she's one of the best soldiers, and people who go on patrol with her know what she is capable of. it's only natural that people started treating you with more respect when you two got together.
+ if she heard anyone talking badly about you or gossipping she would shut it down immediately. there's literally a part of the game where she goes around humbling the fuck out of people for talking about ow*n. so yes, best believe she's doing that for you too.
bonus:
+ i LUV the wlf!nurse x abby anderson fics so here's something about that; she would spot the smallest cut on her arm after patrol and her first instinct would be to see you. you'd laugh at how silly it was while you cleaned the wound, not realising abby was only here to see you.

The Forbidden Always Tastes Better

paring: Seungmin x fem!reader (lee know's younger sister)
gender: smut
word count: 1k (1064)
warnings: corruption kink, degradation kink, penetrarion sex, oral sex (fem recibing), sex without protection (pls dont be stupid), size/power play, dirty talk, praise/humiliation mix, verbal dom, power dynamics (age and hierarchy), friend's younger sister (she is over 19)
You're always there. At rehearsals, during breaks, in the studio. Lee Know's younger sister.
Too young. Too sweet. Too close.
And Seungmin hates you for it. Or so he wants you to believe.
Because every time you laugh with others, every time you look at him longer than necessary, something inside him snaps. It tightens. It burns.
He doesn't like how your laughter burrows under his skin. He doesn't like how your shorts seem shorter and shorter. He doesn't like knowing that if Minho found out what he thinks when he sees you… he'd kill him.
And you know it.
That's why when you run into him alone in the studio, with his shirt rolled up and his eyes lowered, you don't hesitate to stay in the doorway. You don't say anything, you just look at him. You provoke.
He doesn't even turn his head. He just talks.
"Are you having fun pretending you don't know what you're doing?" he says, in a low voice. A dry whisper. "What?" "You come here wearing those crappy shorts, with that perfume you don't even know how to use, you look so innocent." He turns. He looks at you. And it takes your breath away.
"But you're not, are you?"
His body is close before you realize it. You feel the hard wood against your back. His hands don't touch you, but they're there, close enough to make your body burn.
"I should tell your brother," he spits, but there's no morality in his voice. Only desire wrapped in rage. "I should tell him his little sister is offering cheap glances as if it weren't obvious how much she wants someone to corrupt her."
Your throat trembles.
"Is that what you want? For me to break your mouth just to shut you up?" "Seungmin…" "Since when do you call me that?"
His finger brushes over your lower lip, pushes it down slowly.
"So easy to ruin," he murmurs. "And the worst part is, you like it." "I don't like it…" "You lie like a bitch in heat."
And then he kisses you.
It's not sweet, it's not soft. It's the kind of kiss that comes with consequences. He bites your lip, pushes you with his body. Your legs tremble.
He grabs you by the neck, not to suffocate you, just so you won't look away. So you'll see him while he tells you what you are.
"You're going to let me do whatever I want. You're going to kneel like you know your place." Silence. Your chest rises and falls like you've never breathed before. And yet… you nod.
"Good whore," he smiles. And everything turns to fire.
Your back hits the closed study door as he kneels in front of you as if about to pray to you… but there's nothing holy in his mouth.
"Spread your legs."
His words fall like a divine command.
Your breath catches, but your thighs yield. Slow, nervous. He laughs, that low, dry laugh he has when he's about to do something unforgivable.
His hands slide over your skin, unhurried, without permission. He squeezes your thighs and leaves a quick bite just above your knee.
"Look how easy you are," he whispers against your skin. "How many times have you fantasized about this? Did you touch yourself thinking of me while your brother slept a room away?"
"Seungmin…" "I said don't call me that. Call me like a good bitch."
You choke on your own words. You don't know how to say them, but your body has already responded.
He moves your panties to the side to gain easy access to your core. The first brush of his tongue is gentle, almost merciful. But then… Then there's no mercy.
He licks you as if he's hungry for you, as if your body were something he deserved to destroy. He holds your hips tightly, keeping you in place even though your legs tremble and your back wants to arch. Your moans are muffled in your hands. Until he takes them off.
"Don't cover up," he growls, forcing you to look at him. "I want to hear you beg."
One of his hands slips under your shirt, the other pulls your soaked panties down completely. There's no pause. He penetrates you with two fingers while he continues to devour you as if seeking punishment. And he finds it.
Your nails scratch his shoulders. Your mouth says his name—the one he forbade you—and he smiles, cruelly.
"That's it." So ruined by someone who shouldn't even look at you."
He pushes you onto the desk, spins you around, forces you to arch up, hands against the wood. You're trembling. Soaked. Exposed.
And then you feel it.
His erection pressing right where you need it most. Still clothed, still in control.
"Ask me." "W-what…?" "To fuck you like the whore you are."
Your pride falls to the floor like clothes. You can't take it anymore. You don't want any more limits. Not with him.
"Please…" you sob. "Fuck me, please."
And then he enters. All at once.
A stifled moan escapes you, and he just laughs, huskily, through gritted teeth.
"So tight. Almost like you're a virgin," he pants against your ear. "I love ruining you for anyone else."
The thrusts are rhythmic, dirty, desperate. He grabs your hair. He pushes you further against the desk. The word "bitch" mixes with "good girl" when you moan for him. Your legs can't support you anymore.
You cum, and you don't even know when. But he knows.
"Did you cum yet?" he whispers maliciously. "Too easy. Let's do it again." "I-I can't…" "Yes, you can. You're going to do it. Again. And then again."
He overstimulates you as he continues to penetrate you, deep, so deep you can't tell if you're crying or moaning. He touches you as if you were his. As if you were already his. And you are.
When he finishes, he does it with a dry growl, buried in your neck, his teeth clamping down on your skin. And still, he doesn't move.
You both pant. The sweat is real. The silence is brutal.
Until he speaks. Quietly. Cruelly. Almost sweetly.
"You shouldn't have come today."
But he doesn't leave. He just straightens your shirt. He helps you clean your trembling legs. He kisses your neck.
And then… yes. He leaves.

Love your writing style
Tf 141 x reader whos footsteps dont make sounds. Scaring the fuck out of everyone, needing to wear a bell on their boots when at the base and being sneakily deadly in the battlefield
This is so cute!! Toothrotting fluff, angels!
I made this into pranks and hijinks, and some Price x Fem!Reader towards the end, luvvie, I hope that’s okay! <3
If this isn’t what you wanted, feel free to send me another ask and be like “Hey, Mrs. Beth! That was cute and all… but not really what I asked for!” While I love to write for myself, I open up my ask box so you lovely people can experience my writing as well.
Forever tailored to you,
Mrs. Beth.
Truth be told, you were Price’s favorite. His prized girl. Among the TF141, everybody knew it. Even if nobody said anything. Lingering glances from Price as you swayed around in your civvies, a dress brushing along your thighs and barely reaching your knees. A firm fist planted along his leg while he held back from proposing.
Everybody loved you. Maybe not the recruits, so much, when you tore them a new one for their lack of respect and discipline, but the boys loved you. Simon loved how you cuddled to his side when you were just too cold to be in your room. And Johnny loved how you constantly matched his energy and would always bounce off the walls with him. And Kyle loved the brightness. The constant pep in your step even after all you had seen on the battlefield. Your immense ability to separate work and life.
But, what these four loved even more? How you would let your guard down with them. Silly little lamb, thinking she was safe from the hijinks of her best-friends. And how sneaky they were about to be. Making no noise with their boots.
Simon, his moniker indicative of his love for stealth, loved to piss you off by scaring you. Knowing you didn’t expect anything to be happening, you would just stop listening. Stop asininely surveying your surroundings and just let your brain turn off. It didn’t help that Simon was trained to make no noise when he walked. No noise when he did anything at all. So, a few times a day, the entire base would hear a scream like someone had been murdered. And honestly? I think the victim was your ego.
Johnny scared the piss out of you too, unfortunately in a literate sense at one point, but he would go about it differently. Hiding under blankets and throw pillows and waiting for you to sit on the couch before grabbing onto your arm or leg and causing you to flail off the couch like a fish out of water. Giggling until he tears a stitch in his side.
Kyle pranks you with food, making you coffee or tea with an extra scoop or an extra bag and acting clueless when you ask why it’s so strong. Or making you Oreo’s with toothpaste in the middle. And subsequently being confused when you enjoy it more than a regular Oreo… or swapping all the food in the fridge for plastic baby food, thinking it’s the most hilarious thing he’s ever done.
And Price pranks you too, but you’re his favorite. So while he does enjoy the occasional sneak attack, and the occasional toothpaste Oreo, he enjoys his gifting pranks even more. Saying he got you something extravagant for your year anniversary of working with the TF141, only for you to open up the box and find a little racecar, something akin to a Hot Wheels. He watches you play it off, say you’ll cherish it and set it up somewhere but he knows his girl better than that. He hands you another box, and inside? A meticulously laid diamond necklace, heavier than a damn paperweight and shinier than the sun.
“Now, you’ll be wearin’ diamonds when Simon scares the piss outta ya,” he winks.

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will
#svsss#scum villian self saving system#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#the fact that people think scum villain#-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me#especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater#heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series#he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters#(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters#like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx#I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes#side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me#i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation#but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years#like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain#the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too#+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu#as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people#another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does#also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be#he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students#and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing#+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this#but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

I know i like to joke around that haha tsukasa scared of bugs haha funny loser, but please do remember and be mindful of people irl with fears that might seem silly or petty to you, because you never know how it truly makes them feel
#not meant to be a tks angst post necessarily i just relate to his fear a bit so hes a good outlet#its just something i think about sometimes#bc ive had ppl esp family laugh at me for being scared of bugs#and sometimes i laugh too! especially if i made the joke first#but sometimes its frustrating because it really can make you Feel Bad and Scared and Filthy. and they laugh like those feelings dont matter#so this is moreso just me kind of. setting a reminder to be respectful and kind of any kind of fear someone expresses#no matter if you understand it or not or if it feels stupid to you or not#its Their feelings#this doesnt mean im mad at anyone for any jokes and in fact i do like to joke about it too sometimes!! so its not a sign to stop#im just moreso saying. if someone says its not funny at the given moment then its not. period#bc i alsohave moments when it rly isnt funny. and then laughing at it just. yeah. isnt fun#anyway this is just a ramble bc its just been on my mind for a while#and maybe at times i feel annoyed at how tsukasa's fear is played off for jokes in the game more often than not#esp since akito's fear of dogs is not as much. and even got a whole event abt it. yk#like theyre Different but also Not Really#so i wish someone other than toya was more kind about it instead of. throwing bugs at him more. yk. at least sometimes#im mostly saying this in reference to real people though of course. please dont take this too seriously as a tks post 😭 do keep making fun#its not that serious and im probbaly just projecting onto him lmao#anyway ramble over peace off#tw bugs#cw bug#its not super graphic but yk#prsk#tenma tsukasa#akito shinonome#kerizart#project sekai#prsk fa

MiqoMarch Day 11 - Loss
#dawntrail spoilers#ffxiv#miqomarch#miqomarch2025#g'raha tia#arsay nun#wolgraha#dawntrail#ffxiv spoilers#oof this was a doozy to write and pose but i got through it 😭#i was going to expand on the bird metaphor initially but then I remembered that Arsay doesnt really do that. she just says shit#so you the viewer gets to decide what she means#I feel like its been a while since I've shown Arsay lifting her partner up in a conversation#shes been real baby since endwalker so its usually her who needed the support#im glad DT gave me a moment for Arsay to show her inspiring side now that shes gone through endwalker character development#were it any other character she would have said nothing tbh These are feelings she could only reveal to raha and shtola#so many people have done amazing takes on this scene and their wols replies i really hope this doesnt come off as reductive#or accidentally copying someone else#this part really hit me when I was playing because of irl reasons but even still i knew in the moment arsay would fight grahas doubt#because she believes so much in him and his kind soul. And shes seen it in action too. she sees a distinction between his actions-#- and that of others who claimed to do things for the good of their people#tbh arsay does kinda fall into the camp of 'would rather die than have to mourn another loved one' at this point#but if it came down to it I dont think shed be able to do anything but keep living- shes stronger than she believes herself to be

Do you think you will ever check out Raincode? It's made by the same people who made DR but with a more focus on mystery. (It has the same vibes and stuff, I feel like you would like it a lot) another thing, the writing is so banger
Yes, I've already played Raincode!! Really enjoyed it, especially for the DR-like vibe and I actually made charms of the main cast:
I have sketches of Yomi and Yakou that I've been meaning to add to this set for ages but haven't been able to bring myself to refine them ;v; Makes me happy when people recognize the Raincode merch at cons tho! I'm really excited for Kodaka's new game too, I haven't played the demo yet!
#i think raincode just didnt have the same grip as DR for me#while i enjoyed it a lot and the general plot kept me hooked i think there were plot points that i wish had been explored more#and the ending was a bit predictable to me which doesnt necessarily make it bad but it set it up to be very shocking and then it was kinda#like yeah... saw that coming ages ago#i think there was a lot i wanted from the premise of the game that it just didnt provide which tbf happens quite often in DR too#but i think the biggest thing is that the characters in raincode feel a bit one dimensional and dont really get devloped as much as id like#now i played before the DLC content was released and have yet to play the DLC so ik that the charas get more fleshed out in that but the#game felt a little bit incomplete to me without that#i think dr appeals to me so well bc the main plot of the game allows for extremely strong archetypes of characters so even when theyre bein#comically over the top or die off early there's still a lot of room for personal headcanons and theories#but raincode misses the mark on that just a tiny bit#perhaps its also just that the cast is so small too#i like the dr murder mysteries bc whether im attached to the victim or murderer or hate their guts im personally invested in the trials#with raincode i didnt like that most of the mysteries felt so impersonal and the NPCs more often than not were generic#it def removed a layer of investment for me#ALL THAT TO SAY. I DONT DISLIKE RAINCODE#like i said i really enjoyed it and i think chapter 3?? Or whichever chapter they infiltrate the school in was my favorite specifically bc#it actually does kinda hit the mark with having NPC's with proper designs and also i really like desuhiko and his ability despite him being#the “pervert” archetype#all of this is mostly reflection on why it doesnt have as much of a vice grip as danganronpa has on me even after all these years#but as a game it was really fun to play and i did enjoy the overall storyline#i think yomi mightve been my next kokichi if his writing didnt flop so hard towards end game#he was so my type of character and then he just kinda. ended up doing nothing.#also i think makoto is ugly. no offense. send tweet#askibble#OH ONE MORE THING i really enjoyed the initial chapter and how the game opens up but im really mad that they didnt call back to the prologu#detectives at all#like i really thought maybe they'd at least haunt the narrative but nooppee#i really like that one girl pucci. or wahtegver her name was#ive been wanting to replay it recently tbh

Could you explain your position on Shallura? Since Allura was established as a teenager when she started dating Lance and Shiro was very clearly an adult. I can understand the bi shiro headcannon but the shallura thing worries me
i am going to remind yall that i have been in this fandom since 2016. and in the early seasons, allura was not established as a teenager. in fact she was coded as older, as closer to shiro's age -- there was a specific divide between her and the younger paladins that she did not have with shiro. they made her younger (both explicitly and in mannerisms) as the show went on. and i do not give a fuck about voltron like...post s4 and i didn't even watch s7-8. so like. especially with older fics, im going to enjoy shallura.
#also this is less relevant and i was going to put it in the main post but i cant find the words for it#but i found your last sentence kind of condescending. “the shallura thing worries me” as if i am your little project and things arent going#to plan. as if you are the Knower Of All Things and i am straying from my path lol. twas odd#and this is a controversial thing to say i know it but like#we take fandom way too seriously. if someone decides in fic to make two characters the same age to ship them or whatever. do we really need#to get the torches and pitchforks. like i can understand discomfort when people ship like shiro and pidge or something but. also. i feel#like you can just block and move on?? like i dont ship sheith bc they are brothers. to me. but also i dont think sheithers should be#harassed or any dumb shit like that. i think its so so whatever like theyre Lines man theyre moving lines#at the same time i understand that peoples headcanons can be reflective of their worldviews (like when racism/transphobia/sexism shine#through someone's headcanons/characterization) but how much scrutiny is too much? when do we get to remember that fandom is a place to#work with the FICTIONAL? where you can change details without consequence? i saw a fic where keith was the older sibling and shiro was the#younger once. it was a good fic. how come we can play with ages but only when the Fandom Council approves?#i guess this is a really long and clumsy way to say like. you do not own the fandom nor do you get to dictate my work. and while there#is always room for necessary criticism please also think critically before you post your criticism#anyways#rant#ask

maybe if i just put these screenshots together youll understand why i think their relationship just Works so well as it pertains to the characters and themes of S4 in general
neither of them know what theyre doing, but theyre figuring it out Together. the old ways are dead. and together theyll build a new future thats worth fighting for
#twdg#violentine#clems “i dont know” paired with violets “lets figure it out together”. screaming crying throwing up#clem never knew what she was doing!! she was just trying her best!! and now shes tired as SHIT!!! she wants a break 😭!!!#vi helps take that weight off by supporting her as much as she does (which is A LOT!! and clem supports her in return. they grow together)#that bit in the woods where instead of getting grossed out by the guts vi crouches down to ajs level and keeps the situation calm#and she looks up to clem and gives her a little smile. and clem just relaxes and smiles back !! DO YOU UNDERSTAND !!!#clem being anxious about her reaction. violet putting her at ease. clem getting to Relax for 2 seconds. they help each other CHILL 😭#ALSO why their walk home talking about ericson and renaming it and imagining what they could add to it is just so good narratively#they turned that prison into their HOME!! a place worth fighting for!!!#tenn wanting to help rebuild. vi saying Everyone will :') its a home for ALL OF THEM 😭 its about the COMMUNITY !!!#this is also why i think the friends route still works but theres just even more Juice with the romance. even ignoring minnie#violets “you better not disappear on me”. friended clems “ok” to romanced clems “i promise”#in a season about building a home and a family that second one just hits harder you know? and like above with the learning to dance#i just feel like their romantic relationship specifically fits into the overall themes of the game the strongest and elevates it#me talking at the wall (tumblr drafts)#all of my friends who have played twdg are too normie so i gotta make posts like this instead. or i'll die#wont somebody analyze narrative with me#it speaks

sorry to be a bit of a hater but i do wish youtubers weren't so scared of making their videos just like, "reviews", whys everything gotta be a "video essay" all the time. every day my recommendations are filled with 40 minute videos titled "_____: An Underrated Masterpiece" where the first like five minutes are reading the wikipedia definition of "masterpiece" in a somber voice with dramatic themed text on screen. please just tell me how good or bad you think something is and use the rest of the runtime to explain why. you dont need to put on all these airs
#i know the ahem. channel. of some awe....... that whole situation kind of scared people off from using the word review#but like we live in the future now. you can make a review. i believe in you#AND LIKE i like a good video essay!! but im picky. because i read academic shit for fun#when i see a capital E essay im expecting theses. im expecting sub headers. im expecting multiple examples AND footnotes with asides#(and i know this is a controversial topic but i do expect them to be long. because if you read aloud a 4 page journal article its gonna)#(take a bit of time LOL maybe i just read too much academia shit. but i dunno man. theres not a lot you can say about like a big huge)#(topic with multiple angles if you only have like 10 minutes. maybe i just talk too slow. i need to breath <3 )#theres other formats too. surveys. retrospectives. informative essays. persuasive essays. etc#and like i also read lots of reviews not just of like movies and books but of like gallery exhibitions and shit!! they can be extremely#interesting a lot of work and some really beautiful writing!! nothing wrong with a review!!! theyre important#but i do get annoyed with like. the odd air of pretention i see in a lot of video essays. especially cause its usually not backed up by#the content. i dont care for those airs in academia either. nor do i like it in documentaries#just talk naturally. you'll find your voice. there might be pretention in it in the end but it'll be yours#if im making sense. i hear a lot of people talking in a pretention that is not their own. something they put on because thats what they#think they should do. you need to find your own pretention. be pretentious in a way that feels natural to youuuuuu#hell im being pretentious. about this LOL but like its my own. it is a pretentiousness ive built over the past half decade#play around. write a blog. i dunno. find your voice dear youtubers. find your voice

i would like to say my ideal PJO adaptation (if i was being physically forced against my will to have to pick a live action adaptation over an animated one for some reason) would be a combo like writing of the musical + casting of the show + visuals of the movies
BUT the show actually does have the playwright for the musical as one of the major writers for like three episodes and that did nothing for it. so...
#pjo#riordanverse#pjo tv crit#i do love the casting for the musical lots and lots though#it was really good#i do also have some nitpicks for show casting but they're largely inconsequential#like majority i very much enjoy and think are cast well#i only have one i'd say im actually disappointed with and that's Poseidon. idk he just feels. bland??? does that make sense?#like idk maybe it's the costuming but im not getting Sea God *or* Fishing Dad from him#like i think i kinda see what they were going for and i saw some gifs of him in another show where he plays a pirate and its like#okay. *little* bit better. but idk im just not getting Poseidon from it#in general most of the immortals in the show dont feel very Immortal(tm) but thats definitely mostly just the writing/show itself#not any reflection of the casting#my only other two are i would have liked plus sized Clarisse. i am VERY sad we didnt get that#Dior is a VERY good Clarisse though so i'm not too upset about it. i like her Clarisse energy. the yelling is fantastic.#my most controversial pjo tv take is im still meh on Walker. like he's fine. but like he's kind of Just Fine to me so far#its probably mostly the writing being bad but he hasnt grown on me as Percy yet. i can tell he has the energy though in interviews n stuff#and the main trio dynamic in interviews and stuff is *very* good. i just wish the show writing was better#because the casting IS very good but they have so little to work with. you can really tell theyre trying their best#i like to joke the show would be better if they just set the cast loose in the woods doing in-character improv#like its clear basically all of them know their characters SUPER well. id watch 8 episodes of in the woods pjo cosplay improv.

Ok I know I'm heavily biased here but like I kinda love that Astarion's romance is one of the few in this type of video game where you basically end up canonically unmarried and childfree in his "good" ending? Just travelling the world??
Like it's honestly the millennial dream lmfaoo cannot believe i chose what would undoubtedly be my favorite option, first try
#also love that he's basically atheist like ok thanks you made the man exactly coded to be my type#and the humor and beautiful curly hair is very much something my IRL partner has too so like... how can i resist#anyways not sure a lot of people relate cause i think a lot of people want that fairytale romance#even tho wyll is right there yall#but i love me an unconventional or nontraditional one!!#i'm TIRED of being married with children as the endgame pls let's not do it#also a lot of people seem into him being a dad and im like... how? why? where in canon did he ever lmfao#more power to ya if you dig it but i just dont see it being in character#like in DAI i loved cullen and my inquisitor getting married and having a dog#and they seem the type to wants kids one day. but Tav & Astarion? lol no#i just think it's neat#is this a hot take? i have no idea but i don't see it mentioned a lot as a new fan tbh#pls do not come at me you can enjoy whatever you like#i haven't seen the ascended stuff so idk if being his 'consort' is like being his bride#but i feel like overall it's not and the vibe isn't all that different in this sense#except that you're hosting evil parties instead of travelling :/#Astarion#bg3 spoilers#baldur's gate 3#baldur's gate 3 spoilers#bg3#also YEA he's nice to Arabella but you can tolerate certain kids without wanting one or being 'good parent' material#case in point: me lmfao#OKAY update i saw the AA stuff and yeah you're kind of implied vamp married and he does mention spawn as children 😫#but he also says in banter he won't make any other spawn??? so what is it dude#anyway that's also clearly the “bad” route and he doesn't seem as happy as unascended#who feels “truly free”#and if you're durge I'm pretty sure its even worse to consider having kids?? lol#but i digress#pk plays bg3

i like rose actually hes full of Concepts. i like how leon could easily remind him of peony and of himself (personality, talented champion / older brother, beloved golden child) and i like how bede could also remind him of them/what his remark about seeing himself in bede could mean if taken as truth (ignored child, desperate to prove his worth / uncompromising confidence, needs to feel in control, perfectionistic) so he gives them both important roles to keep them around. very normal very well adjusted good job man.
swsh should have had 500 more lines of major npc dialogue. also leon and marnie should have talked about the whole being a symbolic king/princess thing. or she could talk to hop about it and he could talk about how he thinks leon feels about it which could be interesting also. even more economic fuckery talk i know its a sports thing but leon's Sponsor Cape drives me a little nuts. catch him between his own hopes/the needs of the league/rose's ideas specifically. he's been champion since he was like 10 right. something like that. im going back in time sneaking into the swsh writers room and taping up a big poster of N Harmonia. how soon we forget Boy King Prime. also pokespe was right rose should just be Objectively Correct about the impending energy crisis, his problem is that he tries to solve everything by himself by manipulating everyone around him, and is cool with putting the whole region in danger if he thinks it will Solve The Problem. his problem isnt being pro-nuclear power his problem is he thinks like a king. ideal swsh is anti-monarchy as well as anti-monopoly it would make more sense.
#pokemon swsh#this is part joke like pkmn games are pretty minimalist with storytelling. but swsh has So Much that they Could be doing yknow#the version of rose developing inside my brain is very funny. game-pokespe fusion guy#he's stumbled into the weirdo corner with ghetsis and lusamine but he thinks theyre super scary#like yeah kids are really convenient to manipulate and project my issues onto but i think you two are going too far perhaps *pleadingeyes*#leon should be tricked into fighting piers at 4am in a pokecenter parking lot. he regrets it later when he has time to think about it but-#-in the moment it is very heated#thinking about. formative life lessons for peony and rose#''the adults around you will discard you arbitrarily if they don't like you best''#the results of this projected back onto each other#rose keeping the idea that life is easiest when you don't have to invite conflict by letting other people have an equal say in what you-#-think is right#because conflict/tension/whatever will always make people act out and reject each other...#i can see the vision here. i get it. dont have to feel guilty if its just an inevitable consequence of human nature right#this turned back into a lot of pokevillain talk. its a hobby i guess. funny little conflict machines#take my bullshit with a grain of salt i havent played the dlcs and i dont plan to. money

honestly? if tobias' last chance to play papa was with V i wouldn't even be mad about it. i think ending the lore with a character who doesn't wear a mask and therefore is more "human" is actually very sweet and, in some way, feels very fitting.
#i mean im not saying he hates the lore or whatever#but i mean it feels like HE IS papa v and is not playing a character#dont get me wrong i love lore too and i think it adds a lot to the visuals in ghost#not so much the music tho bc its not really conceptual#but i think you guys get my point#also its so crazy how this man has been playing music since +20 years and NOW we finally get good quality footage of him singing!!#the band ghost#gh0st#ghost#tobias forge

well that's just a lie
#ash plays bg3#bg3#gale#gale dekarios#personal#look. im used to the way he looks now. im cool with it. but she shouldnt be!#this was an interesting conversation tho. i know ive been leaning into him following his own ambitions but--#the dialogue options along those lines are becoming a lot more direct in a way that doesnt quite fit with how im playing#the gale that im playing isnt going around pronouncing that he's gonna take over the world (because that's not what he's actually planning)#so im not completely sure how to play this. i saved before so i can go through it a few times to work out what i want to say#(ftr i have no qualms at all about reloading in this game. i dont feel bad in the slightest. im playing this game for fun)#ultimately i dont think it matters too much what i say here unless i choose some really extreme options. which isnt my plan anyway#but it's important to me. im enjoying the roleplay aspect#it's also pretty funny that ive only had one long rest since the one where i fucked the emperor. i should be able to tell her that lmao#like hey yeah a lot's happened since we last spoke#but anyway if you say you're gonna take the crown yourself she says 'if it doesnt crush you i will' which is fun#gonna stick with the 'im not sure' option. and all my companions are saying such nice things to me about it :')#except wyll and jaheira. come on guys#and lae'zel but that's because she's been kidnapped so. rip. should probably make that a priority but i like progressing main quests LAST
