#im only on vol. 2 kill me

[pe0ple3ater]

And the thing about this is that it is so close to being romantic. You change ONE word in this, and it becomes a love confession. That's why I love their relationship so much, because really looking at it under a microscope you see that the divide between them is incredibly thin.

I talked about this a little privately to my friends, but Izaya is fascinating. He loves humanity, but won't love a single person (he's much like Saika in this way, maybe more on how Izaya is an amalgamation of all the types of love represented in drrr later) because it'd be a betrayal to the rest of humanity that he loves.

But in his eyes (at least in the anime, I'm not very far in the novels yet but I suspect I'll be proven correct) people like Shizuo and Celty aren't human, they're monsters. Of course this provides a loophole in Izaya's absolutely fucked logic to explain the undeniable connection he has with these people (even if Celty doesn't like him, even if Shizuo wants to kill him the connection is there)* and yet, monsters can't love.

The novels talk about Izaya as if he's inhuman too, I don't have the screenshot readily available but one thing that's upsetting me about the anime is they removed a very vital scene in the beginning*. Narration states; "They were grappling with the illusion that the other person in the room with them was not a human being at all" this instantly likens Izaya to the monsters he claims cannot love (something he feels about himself too, I think. That he can't love).

Back to monsters can't love, it's a way for him to squirm his way out of acknowledgement these connections. Shizuo and Celty are monsters who can't love, this denies any feelings Izaya might wish they hold for him (romantic or simply friendly) and HE is a monster who can't love, denying the very real feelings he has for them.

Izaya's heart is too fragile for love, Shizuo's strength makes him afraid of hurting the people he loves.

Shizuo can't kill Izaya, no matter how hard he tries. They replace that love and connection with something (ironically) safer for both of them, hate. They're two sides of the same coin.

* Izaya is included in the people "in Shizuo's vicinity," which is an interesting addition considering everyone else listed are people you could consider Shizuo's friend. These descriptions are also interesting because they all have to do with handling Shizuo's anger or protecting themselves against it, except for Izaya who's description is purely emotion based

* I'm talking about the scene with the two suicidal women, it's a really good insight on Izaya as a character from the beginning. The anime needed a villain so they molded him to fit and removed scenes that gave him some depth, but I also think he's just a really hard character to show in a visual way without making it extremely corny. There's so much dissonance between what he says and does vs. what he feels that I think it's hard to accurately portray him without internal narration, you miss a lot of his nuance in the anime

[phantastragoria]

You know what I'm going to say it. For as colorful as all the promotional material for Vol. 3 was (posters and the overall design language used for merch etc) the film itself sure is the most dusty and 2010-color-graded-looking film in the whole trilogy.

PROPAGANDA

ALEX DEWITT (DC COMICS)

1.) The term “fridging” is literally based on Alex and what happened to her. She was killed off violently by a bad guy trying to get at her boyfriend only a couple issues after she was introduced (making it obvious they only brought her in to kill her off for shock value). Her death did very little to the narrative other than hurt her boyfriend Kyle and was done in an exceedingly horrifying and violent way. (Bad guy came to the door with flowers and threatening note, broke in and attacked her, choking her to death, before [off panel] chopping her body up and sticking it in the refrigerator as a “surprise” for her boyfriend. This obviously is really fucked up and she deserves better and should win this actually (a vote for Alex is a vote for all fridging victims [in spirit])

2.) It doesn’t get much worse than being the character whose death originated the “fridging” trope. In Green Lantern Vol. 3 #54, Kyle Rayner comes home to find that Alexandra, his girlfriend, has been killed by the villain Major Force and stuffed into the refrigerator.

Alexandra DeWitt is the character whose misogynistic treatment coined the term where a character, usually female, is killed off purely to make the main character, usually male, feel bad. Even if there are other characters who have been subjected to similar levels of misogyny, Alexandra DeWitt’s treatment has been essentially immortalized.

3.) I know she’s not going to win but shout out to my home girl, literally the trope namer for women shoved in fridges. All anyone ever knows about her is that she was Kyle’s girlfriend and got murdered for his character development, even though she had plenty of potential to be her own character.

AMBER VOLAKIS (HOUSE MD)

1.) Holy shit thank you for reminding me about Amber. Her nickname that almost everyone calls her to her face every day is Cutthroat Bitch. When she & Wilson start dating there are so so so many jokes about her keeping his balls in her purse & having him whipped & etc etc just bc she’s assertive & confident. & then the whole two-part episode where they fridge her (which is. not quite house’s fault directly but he definitely contributed to it) they make it completely about house & wilson & maybe 2% about HER. I’m still mad forever

2.) After being fridged, she does show up in later seasons! As a hallucination. She shows back up to be the devil on House’s shoulder when he is hurtling towards a vicodin-induced breakdown. Literally only shows up to steer him into making bad decisions (including almost killing Chase (allergic to strawberries) by inviting him to a party where the stripper is wearing strawberry scented lotion that sends him into anaphylaxis)

3.) im so glad someone else submitted amber because she fits so well for this poll but i couldnt get my words out right but im going to try again anyway. i think an important aspect of how ambers character is treated and written for the audience has to do with if a man did what she did, hed be opportunistic and ambitious, if not a bit of an ass, but because shes doing it it makes her ‘bitchy’. “cutthroat bitch” “coldhearted bitch” etc is practically her canon alias at this point by how much she is referred to that way rather than her name. she is probably the most humanized out of wilson’s canon relationships and its mostly because theyre paralleling her to house. she deserved so much better she deserved the world and more

[therantfairysblog]

A literal rant lmao

Y'all, please learn to find source for something you read online ...

I have been quite active in other fandom before but i never seen so many misinfo spreading like willfire than kny fandom pls 😭

Iguro DID NOT keep ring in his estate for mitsuri y'all he deem himself unworthy and only accept her proposal for their NEXT LIFE. Pls read chapter 188 carefully y'all. <---- the irk i found about this popular hc is stonk bc this is clear mischaracterization of him. Iguro is soooo broken even though he found light in Mitsuri, he couldn't freeing himself from his self loathing 😭

The other popular hc like burying together, i find it cute but its not canon y'all and i feel like burying them separately is more appropriate plus they usually cremating their dead like zenitsu's gramp.

Another popular hc that people treat it like canon that irked me is regarding shinobu didn't tell giyuu only and telling other hashira. Noooooo they'll against it too why do you thing gyomei or Mitsuri, her bestie will allow it???? The only canon one is she telling kanao, That's it. 😭💔

If u writing headcanon, pls tell people honestly it's just a hc nothing more don't treat it like canon. I was wondering for a bit when i read all this where tf y'all found this info.

There's this canon source that y'all need to read/cross checking . Unless it was stated in this sources, whatever you read online is a headcanon 🥲

The whole manga

Anime original scene. (Yes it's canon and tight up some missing connection in the manga)

Gaiden (giyuu and rengoku)

Light novels

Corps record (official fanbook there's 2 vol if im not mistaken)

Taisho secret.

Official interviews from Gotouge (I'm not sure if there's any)

Sorry to breaking your heart obamitsu lover but here a bit anecdote from light novels as a compensation 🙏

Iguro was so worried about Kanroji's less appetite and he aware sth was troubling her. She got a little injury in her face and he get angry and want to kill the demon who did it before kanroji explained that she's already kill it. (Butterfly wings ln if I'm not mistaken) -this LN is also deal with mitsuri and shinobu close relationship and it's really cute 🥰.

When discussing about the consequences of the marks, gyomei expressed his worry on muichiro as he was so young and asked if he's okay. Muichiro telling him he may be a bit concern about it but asked gyomei back why shouldn't he worry about mitsuri, or iguro? Gyomei wonder why he brought up iguro and muichiro telling him that he was obviously in love with mitsuri. In this specific convo, gyomei aware that muichiro has become more observing and opened up to them which he was glad to see. Also this implied that the two were like a lovebirds to everyone else (except sanemi maybe bc he canonically dense about relationships) but they aren't aware lol. (Chap 4 of The Wind's Telltale Signs LN)

Ok here we go my Lengthy Evil Bees Schnees Headcanon Timeline > before going to bacon academy yang transitions. Her life issues force her into donning a mask of what she thinks she Has to be as a woman and as a person. Still “likes men” because its part of her mask > weiss attends bacon academy > weiss realizes she likes women > weiss goes to the only girl she can peg (hah) as being queer for help > yang > yang goes “WHAT NO I DONT LIKE WOMEN I LIKE MEN IM CIS HAHA-fuck” > weiss goes “okay well. Do you wanna. Learn how to. Gay. Together.” then forms a secret QPR with yang, slowly becoming closer and closer friends, but with a lot of bullying because they both think its funny > yang begins to catch feelings for blake, and discusses this with her bestie weiss, and weiss goes “yeah absolutely, that sounds wonderful im glad you found someone you really do love :)” and the first drop of jealousy forms > yang goes “im going to ask blake out after the vytal festival” and weiss goes “yaya woohoo” > volume 3, occurs. > yang loses her best friend, her crush, and is fucking destroyed emotionally. > weiss looses her two best friends (ruby and yang) and her entire support group (everyone else) and has to figure out what to do again > vol 5 occurs, and yang and Weiss are reunited as besties but dont have time to really talk things out until The Conversation about Blake. > Post this they kinda. Just a smidge. Qpr it up in secret just so they can both get a little support. > vol 5 sees the reunion of blake into the group and so weiss and yang dont get as much time together as they used to, causing weiss’s jealousy to build until vol 6’s train crash and other things start piling up. > Vol 7 has some free time but most of it is spent training so weiss’s jealousy builds unknowingly to her, while she watches the bees start bumbling more and more, as she doesn’t recognize why shes feeling uncomfortable with their flirting (see: "YEP" when jaune invites ANYONE out) > vol 8 has so much shit in 2 days the only thing to happen is weiss losing yang but she cant even focus on that because the Bees are Bumbling and blake ALMOST kills herself but weiss goes “haha my best friend who i have No Feelings For would kill me if i let her crush die as well HAHAHA” > vol 9 happens and Weiss is too upset about losing the entirety of her country n shit to really care until the bees FINALLY bumble, in which she goes “haha. Yay. Yang did it. Why do i feel so alone. Hah. Haha��” and it finally clicks, but ruby’s breakdown immediately happens after this which becomes a significantly higher priority > once they return from the ever after is fair game (haha qrow and clover lol) so idk maybe while they hang out in vacuo weiss finally goes “bitch scoot over… i love yall” in a really awkward but heartfelt conversation and yang goes “yay!! I missed being able to do stuff with you” and blake goes “ive read enough fanfic to tell you were struggling” and then the bees schnees are born, OFFICIALLY

I love this idea so freaking much. I hadn’t even thought of QPR freezeburn before beeschnees before and I love it. Especially though the angle of Yang and Weiss’s personal exploration.

I’d love to read a full fic about this

[the-path-to-redemption]

I'm the same one who wrote the Blake speech. So after further I realized something.....

The humans in remant don't care about Faunus rights or just down right bystanders.

We literally saw Velvet get harrased by Cardin and no one did anything including RWBY they just sat on their table and discuss the situation with Cardin. (Im assuming that there only a small fraction of Faunus in Beacon and they just let one of their own kind be harrased? Also assuming they have a no Faunus discrimination policy in Bracon and they just allow racist like Cardin in with no consequences)

From what we are given in lore FAUNUS ARE THE ONLY ONE FIGHTING AGAINST PREJUDICE. There other no human allies with them. No human allies are participating in their protestors or advocating Faunus rights.

The only "allies" we see who are with faunus right are the main cast or important characters that are associated with faunus characters.

Roman even says this during vol 2 episode 4

"But, before the claws come out, I'd like to mention the fact that you and I all have a common enemy: the ones in control, the people pulling the strings, the dirty, rotten humans that run our kingdoms! (As the crowd changes their tune and starts agreeing with him.) Government, military, even the schools: they're all to blame for your lot in life! (Lets the crowd cheer as the two heroes share a look.) And they're all pests that need to be dealt with! Fortunately, I'm the best exterminator around... No offense to any rodents in the room."

Now Roman is an unreliable narrator (I haven't read any of the novels so I ain't gonna bother if they change his personality or explain why is he like this) but when you think about it he's not wrong.

You are telling me that NO ON IN HIGHER AUTHORITY Remant help Faunus lives improve? No discrimination laws? No investigations of an exploitation of Faunus? No human politicians advocating and standing for Faunus right? They just let it all happen and call it a day?

Hell even Roman calls out the schools hypocrisy for not doing anything about it. Going back to vol 1 episode 12.

Oobleck: Yes! Yes, prior to the Faunus Rights Revolution--more popularly known as the Faunus War--humankind was quite, quite adamant about centralizing Faunus population in Menagerie. Now! While this must feel like ancient history to many of you, it is imperative to remember that these are relatively recent events! Why, the repercussions of the uprising can still be seen to this day! Now! Have any among you been subjugated or discriminated because of your Faunus heritage?

Some of the silhouetted students raise their hands. Velvet, after a moment, does the same.

Oobleck: Dreadful, simply dreadful! Remember, students, it is precisely this kind of ignorance that breeds violence! I mean, I mean, I mean just look at what happened to White Fang!

True Oobleck! Ignorance does breed violence.....IF YOU ARENT DOING ANYTHING TO STOP THAT FROM HAPPENING IN THE FIST PLACE!!!!!

Do humans believe White Fang jut started because they hate humans! They became violent after realizing what peacful actions wasn't getting them anywhere. Do you know Why?

Because humans were ignoring their need for help. They aren't helping them in any shape or form!

No advocating. No protesting. No standing up for Faunus. Nah dah.

It also doesn't hunter's and huntress are just another sub branch of their kingdom government as they are shown to work with the police. Instead of them working in law enforcement they just fight grimm.

Imagine being a faunus who also a hunter yet still gets discriminate even after killing grim for a majority of your life and this is the thank you get.

[mattelektras]

im fairly new to comics and i was looking at your elektra stuff and you mention wolverine a few times. what is their connection about? how do they know each other?

oh my favourite subject!!!!!

they first met in wolverine vol 2 when wolverine was in one of his beserker episodes and stick put elektra onto him to pull him out of it. they started training together how stick trained elektra. she notes herself how much they have in common and how she understands him in terms of his anger more than most can. she's hard on him but there's a lot to be said about how she doesn't judge him for how he is or what he's done or how he got there, she just re-teaches him the difference between mindless killing and killing for a purpose and doing it with skill and dwelling on your trauma vs using it. some of the ugliest wolverines youve ever seen in your life but one of my fav moments

coming out of that, there's elektra and wolverine: the redeemer. my one of my favourite comics ever that isnt actually a comic. again , heavy with the themes of redemption and whether or not it's possible or desirable for either of them.

they go back to one another's home countries. logan takes her camping in canada and she takes him back to greece to see what's left of her home which she hasn't done with ANYONE, not even matt

then there's elektra vol 1 where i just like the casual/normal nature of their friendship. he shows up to give her a ride on his bike and then gets protective because of the guy she's seeing, he knows she's out of her depth wrt romance and is worried about her, he knows she doesn't like cut flowers, then he goes to fight the new love interest just to make sure he's good enough for her

then one of my other favourites!! enermy of the state/agent of shield where wolverine is once again not in control of himself. a common theme in wolverine comics actually. elektra is working w shield and wolverine is possessed by the hand who are working w hydra. which is naturally a bit of a sore subject w elektra. she's... kind of on side with shield for logan's sake, imo. she very clearly has no loyalties to them and makes a point of saying you kind of deserve this

the hand sends logan after matt and his thought process the whole time is like wow you really fumbled this girl AND you're a whore. massive L. and this is whilst he's possessed by the bad guys. bestie behaviour. anyway, the hand kill's elektra again which was her plan all along, because she knows theyre going to raise her from the dead as their puppet BUT she's immune to their fuckery because theyve tried it all with her before, so basically she's back with logan, they all think she's possessed, but she's not. she's there to get her bff.

the two of them kill an entire helicarrier full of shield agents. wolverine not in control of himself, elektra just willing to make sacrifices. referred to as the blackhawk incident. to me, its just another thing that bonds them and another atrocity that neither one judges the other for when everyone else in their lives are slightly more morally upstanding. the both of them just know what it takes. stuff happens, wolverine comes back to himself and turns up to hand/hydra hq to kill them all when elektra telepathically tells him she's gonna help him. they kill another large amount of people together

secret invasion happens, which is an absolute shit show for elektra when she gets replaced by a skrull. they take the form of both matt and logan to take her off guard which says a lot imo. and when she escapes the skrull, logan is the one who gets her and helps her get back on her feet. the whole question of this book is whether or not elektra was a skrull when she helped with the blackhawk incident. spoilers: she wasnt but logan still does not judge her in the slightest which is SO important for her considering her only other support in her life is matt who constantly judges her for what she does

in savage wolverine, elektra shows up at avengers tower and logan drops everything to go with her and help her and i think this team up for them explains their relationship SO well so i'm just gonna dump the whole page

to me, 'being with her feels a hell of a lot like being alone' is the biggest statement to make in terms of how comfortable you feel with someone, and considering the both of them are loners at heart, idk i just think its a huge deal and i love that for them

tl;dr i just think theyre so fucking neat. they both have a history of being controlled and used and exploited and the things that theyve done because of that can't really be understood by anyone else.

elektra has NO supporting cast other than matt and a key part of her and matt is that they can never see eye to eye and neither can ever budge from their perspective because that's who they are. but with logan, she doesn't have to worry about that. he takes her as she is and trusts that she has good reason for doing whatever she does. and logan has SUCH respect for her abilities. he always waxes poetic about how good she is and how she could easily take him if she wanted to

logan has a few likeminded ppl surrounding him but for the most part, he's surrounded by heroes and literal children. so with her, he gets to be a different version of himself that he sometimes has to keep in the closet. they work SO well together because theyre just so similar. they know what the deal is without having to ask and its just so satisfying to watch from the perspective of an elektra stan. i just want someone to support her unconditionally and GET her and logan absolutely does

no one gets her like mr wolverine and i get her

[yami-yomiel]

Thatcher and Adam centric.. thing

This all spawned from me seeing a g/t post - [specifically this one - shout out to OP] - and then i rambled my ideas on discord. I just cleaned it up to post here!

(Referring to the image linked)

Ok, but that gave me the visual of Adam’s skin cracking like porcelain and i really like that. What if Thatcher has to get on-top of this BIG (emo)tional giant just to bandage up these cracks to the best of his abilities. Thatcher probably takes care of Giant!adam to cope with Ruth’s death, the latter uses this to cope with his own problems of losing his identity and friends- maybe even the chance of actually having an actual father figure. Because i doubt Jude was there for adam.

tl;dr Thatcher dadvis and his giant emo son

(Here i joke about Adam being a mama’s boy but in the worst way - and one of my friends agreed - for its interpretation at least.)

To bring up that point comment again, i feel like these two can bounce off of one another dynamic wise.

“Please do not imagine a very shakey Adam- so shakey he cannot hold things right without almost dropping it, holding a (taken back/equally scared) Thatcher close to his chest because it’s 1. The only human contact he’s had in a LONG LONG WHILE or 2. He needs the comfort so bad because all of his friends probably abandoned him and don’t want to be around him.” ”2 is also ironic becasue Adam probably sent a lot of his life pushing people away from him- especially Jonah and look where that ended up. And now his wall of ‘I’m Adam and im a dingbat’ has fallen down.”

(Insert a short convo about how he was funny mean in vol 2 and then straight up a bully in vol 4 - he had reasons .. alternate reasons but still. 2 was the set up and 4 was the rising action, and catalyst was the climax - or however that book structure goes.) Back to the topic - there’s probably a long period of which Thatcher HAS to (try and) get used to having an alternate in his home - which may or may not kill him depending on the mood- and getting close enough TO that alternate to ask ‘what happened to you?”. Knowing Adam he’s going to deny it and say he’s going through ‘puberty’.

(‘Oh its just puberty you wouldn’t get it old man’ “Your jaw is sliding off your face” “….and your’s hasn’t’?”)

2023 book log/year in review!

here is a comprehensive of breakdown of every book I read this year!!

Terry Pratchett's Discworld

this was THE YEAR OF DISCWORLD for me. I read more disc books than non disc books. I'm probably gonna take a break from the series for a few weeks to get my breath back. I read my first ever disc book, Going Postal, in december of 2022 so it doesn't technically count as being part of this year, but here's every one that I read starting in january, in the order I read them:

Making Money

Raising Steam 

Guards! Guards! (x2)

Men at Arms (x2)

Soul Music

Feet of Clay

Mort

Jingo

The Fifth Elephant

Night Watch

Wyrd Sisters

Faust Eric

The Wee Free Men

Witches Abroad

Thud!

Monstrous Regiment

The Truth

Lords and Ladies

Hogfather

Rereads

The Fourth Bear is kind of whatever but rereading all the others has cemented them as some of my favorite books and I'm really glad I got to experience them again because I hadn't read them in years 😁

The Fourth Bear by Jasper Fforde

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

How I Killed Pluto (and Why It Had It Coming) by Mike Brown

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams

The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul by Douglas Adams

Other Books

It's kind of embarrassing to see how this list pales in comparison to all the disc books but I WAS reading other stuff I swear!! look!!

Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Haruki Murakami

Sacrifice by Mitchell Smith

Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel

The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne

The Lost Future of Pepperharrow by Natasha Pulley

I Am Legend by Richard Matheson

Did Not Finish

Some of these I got through more of than others. the really bad ones I dropped only after 50 pages or so. im sorry women.

Closing Time by Joseph Heller

Early Riser by Jasper Fforde 

The Real and the Unreal, vol. 2: Outer Space, Inner Lands by Ursula K. Le Guin

A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin

Let the Great World Spin by Colum McCann

Total Stats

Books started: 36

Books finished: 31

Books finished that I hadn't read before: 26 (19 Discworld, 7 not)

I PROMISE I'm not trying to be one of those "30 books in 30 days!" type booktok people, I wasn't aiming for any specific number. I only read this many books because i genuinely really loved them and couldn't stop reading them!!!!!!!

Reading List for 2024

I have an even longer list than this with a bunch of books that I saw or were recommended to me and I thought "oh that seems interesting maybe I'll check it out" but who knows if I will actually get to them. this list below is basically a new years resolution, books that I fully intend to read this year:

Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr (already currently reading this one, just need to finish it)

Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut

Facing the Wave: A Journey in the Wake of the Tsunami by Gretel Ehrlich

One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street by Natasha Pulley

The Bedlam Stacks by Natasha Pulley

The Half Life of Valery K by Natasha Pulley

Fun Home by Alison Bechdel

Maus by Art Spiegelman

Discworld Reading List

Yes, I am keeping this one separate. I don't necessarily intend to get to all of these by the end of 2024, just some time in the future (I probably will end up reading them all next year anyway LOL). Once I finish these, only the Rincewind and Tiffany Aching series remain. I'm not as interested in those based on the small sampling I got of them, but I'll probably read them all at some point just for the sake of completion.

Moving Pictures

Snuff

Reaper Man

Pyramids

Small Gods

Equal Rites

Maskerade

Carpe Jugulum

it's kind of scary to think that this is all thats left..... idk what im gonna do after that man..... kill myself? start over from the beginning? I guess ill just have to cross that bridge when I get to it ☹

happy new year everypony!!!!

9, 13, 22:))

HI HI HI :))) i got very chtty w these SORRYYYYY so its under the cut 🫂🍻 sending u lots n lots of love !!

9. 3 things you like doing on a rainy day

definitely reading, ive got this big ol book of alexander pushkins prose (supposedly the complete collection but i dont always buy tht) n a bunch of other stuff i hvnt started on 💔💔 sometimes ill reread hillbilly elegy by jd vance or the collection of ftwillz stuff it just depends on my mood; writing also ofc, im always working on stuff whether it’s poetry, prose or a song just depends on my mood but its still writing 2 me LOL; n watching either tv (probably xfiles, sometimes trailer park boys or girls next door) or a bunch of movies tht hve been rotting on my tubi watchlist LOLLLLL

13. 3 classes you used to hate in middle school

HATED english, my teacher sucked so unbelievably bad N she was a disney grandma. she retired when i was in 7th n moved 2 florida outside of disney or smthing. hated science cuz the teacher was awful, couldn’t teach at all kept like. giving easily checked false information. n hated hated hated religion (went 2 a priv catholic. the priests were cool (favorite memory is when the class clown asked abt black metal n the priest was like. do not EVER listen 2 christian black metal is SUCKS. listen 2 real true black metal. tht priest was super cool he played guitar n did fencing n collected swords n was trying 2 get the bishop 2 let him grow a super duper long beard. he also went paint balling as chaperone w a bunch of kids from the parish. i got 2 go (was the only girl💔💔) but it was really fun!) but it was. catholic religion class. in 8th grade we were supposed 2 do sex ed yk? like state mandated n whtnot. ours was a vid abt how women were created 2 b submissive 2 men in all ways, how marriage protects the sanctity of sex n its only btwn a man n woman whtnot. it was super cute🩷(sarcasm) 

22. 3 movies/books/tv shows that made you cry

so idk if this is well known abt me but i am a MAJOR crybaby ill cry over anything (it my cancer moon LOL) like i went 2 the senior nite soccer (trve football) game n this guy who im guess his dad died scored a goal n his family had a little yk framed headshot of him n when he scored he ran over 2 side n grabbed n tht made me cry 4 a good five minutes. crying rn writing tht out !! but anyway. xfiles made me cry (scully wanting kids n not being able 2 hv them got me 😭😭😭😭n also just mulder like in general. he looks like a kicked dog sometimes) miami vice made me cry (sorry 4 falling 4 the copaganda but their CLOTHES. n the CARS……..), secrets of playboy made me cry but like. in anger. also in sadness n sympathy. but the root was anger. i hvnt watched a lot of movies recently the last one tht made me cry was kill bill vol 2 but beyond tht idr like i said i cry over anything LOL. most of the books i read r nonfiction n but the last one tht i read was give me some truth by eric gansworth 4 english class n i cried from frustration reading tht 😭😭 but beyond tht, like w movies, i dont remember 💔💔

1. Are you named after anyone? nope! they only had a boy name picked so they just took a look at me and gravbed outta thin air. mum just knew. i had that kind of face apparently.

2. When was the last time you cried? literally just ten minuets ago when i watched ep 100 of criminal minds.

hi. yuudai.

first impression: the first i ever heard about sakana was because you liked yuudai so i never knew anything abt her(him) outside of praise and “shes the only good character” We used to think she was cis though or well my intro to her was cis. in the COMIC the way she was drawn was kind of weird but then she became a character especially when taisei gets her to come with them and shes in casual clothes and is kind of snarky and bitchy its like hi

impression now: ugh yeah shes the only one with like serious issues and shes important to me because of that. its like shes trapped in a world. and i love her design and drawing her

favorite moment: her breakdown in vol 2 was really the moment it like sank in shes serious and why she is the way she is and those panels are drawn so awesome but you know my favorite page in the comic is when shes freaking out after insulting jiro and you can see everyone in her life criticizing her and then shigeru is her internal voice of reason A lot is shown there that i like gleamed and then it was confirmed so im like heh…………….even if i think the moments immediately before and after that page are stupid cuz >jiro it still is important to me

idea for a story: yuudais day to day life coming home after work feeding hime trying not to kill herself going on tumblr and being a tumblrina dealinf with her shitty apartment where the pipes dont work etc i wanna see her live. Well and also i want taisei to take her shopping and buy outfits for her especially cute ones AND THEN THEY GET MARRIED

unpopular opinion: ive seen more transmasc yuudais than transfem yuudais and i just dont see it tee bee aych shes so woman to me

favorite relationship: taidai you know this but i also think her hook up with shigeru and the way she views him as an almost angelic figure is cute even if she carries a lot of guilt about it The idea of him looking out for her/taking care of her is cute and important too

favorite headcanon: trans woman but heavily repressed/closeted/too much other shit going on to really care
