actually since i've been on a fanon streak lately. here's something fun

[shouldprobablybereading]

Because I’m tired over parenting debates where the only true answer is Straff, who’s the worst sibling?

Motivations under the cut:

Reen - Was physically and psychologically abusive towards his sister.

Zane - Tried to have his brother assasinated and tried to make his sister in law fall in love with him because he was jealous and when she didn't reciprocrate tried to kill her as well. Also got multiple of his other siblings killed during the previously mentioned assassination attempt.

Gavilar - Used his brother as a weapon and then used his following ptsd and addiction as a way to manipulate him. He also persued the girl he knew his brother wanted to court.

Dalinar - Was about to kill his brother once, got drunk and didn’t listen during his meetings and eventually fucked his widow (which is good for her but I imagine Gavilar would take issue).

Telsin - Faked her death, killed her brother, then tried to nuke his home city.

Eventeo - Took the throne from his brother and banished him.

Kiin - Tried to take the throne back from his brother by force.

Balat - Let his sister deal with their family problems and feel responsible for him and their brothers despite being the youngest.

Helaran - Left his siblings alone with their abusive father.

Kelsier - Died? And fought over a girl.

Venli - Set off events that led to her sisters death, kinda. Idk it's not her I just wanted more women on the list.

Prime Elhokar - Had one of his sisters closest allies murdered in front of her. Basically locked her up so she couldn't tell anyone and then married her off to Sadeas/Amaram against her wishes.

some of these didn't even happen but maybe it's a good thing they never got anywhere because they would've been voted the worst couple in 1963

not to bring up my own post but I think about something I wrote in that a lot.

fan "what if I kiss testtube and she's radioactive"

lightbulb "she's not I would know"

I feel like I should list every interpretation

* test ulb kiss

* drank her?

* ep 12 crab incident

* correct me if I'm wrong but was she not in the water in ep 11

* tt just told her

* ii team has joked about tt being mouthwash before

* lb psychic mind powers

Just because someone exploded doesn't mean they always die forever. She could always Come Back.

Putting aside the fact that she wouldn’t be the exact same Valentine because, ya know, she exploded, I feel like she has no real reason to come back, considering she served her purpose as a character. She shows what future Valentines would be like, demonstrates Ariels' cruelty, and introduces Aria to the series. Her run is short-lived and tragic, but it's a beautiful tragedy that serves the series well overall. I feel like bringing her back kinda undermines that tragedy, though I also feel that way about reviving Justice and Kliff.

Dragon Ball Super 006

This one is kinda sorta good.  Thanks, Vegeta.

So Beerus has gone to Earth, which... looks like our Earth now?  I mean, Dragon World Earth had a very different geography, so I know this seems like a nitpick, but it’s also a pretty major gaffe, depending on your point of view. 

He sneaks up on Vegeta and screws with him for no apparent reason.  So we’re pretty far afield of the movie at this point.  I mean, it follows the same basic plot structure, but the circumstances are different.  In the movie, Beerus approaches Vegeta directly, and asks about the Super Saiyan God straightaway, and with respect, albeit with the respect a mortal deserves from a god. 

Here, though, Beerus is a real asshole for some reason, and when Vegeta finally spots him, Beerus paralyzes him with some weird power he never used before.  Then Vegeta recognizes him...

... Because he remembers Beerus using the same power against him decades ago, when Beerus visited Planet Vegeta.  The flashback to King Vegeta was in the movie, but this episode expands on it by showing why Beerus was displeased with him. Beerus tasked King Vegeta with finding the universe’s most comfortable pillow, which King Vegeta accomplished, albeit later than expected.  That doesn’t bother Beerus, nor the wholesale slaughter King Vegeta committed to achieve the mission.  No, what irritated Beerus was how King Vegeta tried to trick Beerus by keeping the pillow for himself, while giving Beerus the universe’s second most comfortable pillow.

Also, in this version, young Prince Vegeta tries to attack Beerus, but he gets immobilized by Beerus’ new paralysis beam or whatever. 

Otherwise, things mostly play out the same way, except we’re on a boat and when Bulma invites Beerus to her party, there’s different activities.  Krillin brings out a game of “takoyaki roulette.”  Everyone takes turns eating takoyaki balls, but one of them is full of wasabi.  The game is kind of pointless for Beerus and Whis, since they aren’t familiar with the food, but they enjoy the takoyaki anyway, much to Vegeta’s relief.

Later, Goten and Trunks are playing with water guns, and accidentally spray Beerus, so Vegeta distracts him by diving into the ocean, Gallick Gunning a huge octopus, and making takoyaki balls in one of the food booths.  So this is basically the DBS version of the Videl-getting-shot/Vegeta-Bingo-dance part of the movie.

But the pudding part pretty much plays out as before.  I will say that they did make some nice choices with this scene.

Buu vs. Beerus was one of those things that could have been expanded a little in the movie, so it’s not as objectionable when DBS does it here.  Their confrontation is just as one-sided, but it last a little longer and the camera angles are a little cooler. 

Also, as Beerus beats up Buu, he repeats the same speech he gave to King Vegeta in the flashback, since Buu’s offense was basically the same.  Beerus is quite tolerant of mortal shortcomings to a certain point, but when they fail to respect him, either by switching pillows or licking pudding out of spite, that’s when he flips his shit.  So it ties in nicely with the start of the episode. 

Of course, the only problem I have with that is that Beerus spared King Vegeta all those years ago.  He ordered Frieza to destroy Planet Vegeta in his place, but that implies some semblance of clemency, since he was literally standing on Planet Vegeta but didn’t destroy it at the moment.  And yet, this episode wants us to think Beerus is guaranteed to destroy the Earth today.  It’s a little wonky. 

Mostly, though, I respect this episode for trying to do something with the source material, rather than just repeat it at a slower pace and with uglier visuals.

On another topic altogether: what if most ghosts have casual, short answers that they usually give to people who ask how they died?

Like, a lot of fics (DPxDC in particular) have ghosts instantly losing their minds when someone asks about their death. It's not just normal rude, it's Magical Rude. But realistically, people usually have a way of dealing with frequent invasive questions. (See: amputees and people with obvious scarring.) Not to say those questions should be asked, don't fucking @ me, but they have a way of dealing with them.

So Box Ghost throws his arms up and says, "OSHA VIOLATIONS!" and then leaves.

Desiree snorts and says, "Men."

Johnny says up front, "Got in a motorcycle accident. Always wear a helmet, kid." Kitty just gestures to Johnny. They died together.

Walker explains the exact prison riot he died during, how two convicts overpowered a guard and then took over the armory. Doesn't say exactly what happened to him.

Danny, he says "It was a lab accident." (Though Danny may be more used to explaining his death in detail, since there's no way to explain what he is except exactly, in graphic detail, what happened to him.)

Ember likes to share the details. It makes people sorry they asked.

Some won't talk about it at all, of course. Lunch Lady (who starved during the Depression) doesn't. Technus (heart attack) shrugs the question off. Spectra (domestic violence) laughs in your face. Youngblood (Oregon Trail bullshit) makes things up. Vlad will actually punch you right away, but he's no shining beacon of mental stability.

But for the most part, you get one tense pass.

It's when you press for details that you're asking to get got.
