you sick little animal, even death itself pities you.

There is something so horrifically poetic about Evan surviving so much and then dying the way he did.

Years of haunting, isolation, abuse, terror around every corner. Constantly having to understand that the most dangerous thing in any room is himself no matter how much he didn't want to be. At the same time having to contest that with the fact that he is deeply vulnerable. Never getting out of any situation without somebody getting hurt, just hoping and begging that the brunt of it ends up on the people who deserve it, but not really having any control over that.

He survived all of that. Only a few scars to show for it.

And the thing that killed him was a naive attempt at kindness.

The more I think about this ship the more I fuck with it

[heretofangirl]

war of the rohirrim is awesome actually because going into it blind i laughed when the king one tapped that guy who i thought was going to be the villain and my friends and i joked about how insane that was only to be gobsmacked into silence (followed by extremely loud cheering) an hour later at That Scene because holy shit maybe the instant kill was a MERCY

If you ever come across somebody who has lost a child but who still has other children, I am begging you not to say, "you might have lost a child, but at least you have others!"

It isn't comforting to be told that children are interchangeable, insignificant, and replaceable. It's not comforting a grieving family to be told that their loved one's memory is worthless because it can be replaced; it doesn't help the surviving children or the parent/s.

Tomarry AU but hunger games but Tom and Harry are childhood friends and Harry volunteers for Tom.

sometimes i think about how much of a waste it was to just have cas ignoring sam’s prayers in s6 instead of him actually not being able to hear him bc he was soulless and his prayers didn’t work

Aquabats Headcanons ✨

*Crawls out of the depths of Hell*

Fuck. Fuuuck. Okay. Finally free. Hi guys, ik we were waiting on this, but unfortunately, I am overworked and underpaid, so I never got time to sit down and write these out until now.

With free time on my hands though, let's just get right into it!

MCBC is not his real name, obviously. But it is, except it isn't. It was not his birth name, but it is his legal name. He got it changed and destroyed all documents that included his birth name. What's his real name? Something really simple and boring. I personally think "Daniel White."

The reason why he got it changed was due to estrangement from his family and community (more on this later).

On that note, Crash is also not his real name. Crash is a nickname and his real name is Ian :3

All of them are Queer. Every single one of them. Doesn't matter if they're cis and het, they're queer, somehow. I don't make the rules. Don't ask for my specific hcs either, I couldn't tell ya.

MCBC is to the Aquabats. What Tamaki Suoh is to the Host Club.

On that same note, each of the Aquabats could fit the song "Imagination Forest" from Kagerou Project, except from MCBC, who gets "Shounen Brave"

Eaglebones has golden child syndrome. I don't make the rules. Like him and his brother are textbook "Golden Child"/"Scapegoat" dynamic

Like listen. Idk their backstories yet, but it had to be bad, right??? Really bad or Eaglebones and Eagleclaw would not end up where they are right now. There's no way. Isn't it confirmed they played favorites? How bad did the favoritism go? What was the deciding factor on who was the favorite? Weren't they close at some point; at what point did they stop? Idk. I need more answers.

On that same note, Eaglebones does give me the same vibes as the song "Aftermath" by PhemieC. Davesprite vibes, yk.

Crash reminds me of Sunflowers. That's all

Oh right ages, okay, so idk if they have canon ages, but in my head: Ricky I think is the only one who I know is 19/20, Crash and Eaglebones are around 23 - 25, MCBC is around 25 - 27. Jimmy is Jimmy, and probably was "born" right when the Aquabats formed probably (again idk for sure), but he was designed with the idea in mind of being around, 25 - 26.

Idk MCBC being the oldest, as leader, makes sense to me.

Do you think they have board game night? I think they have board game nights and it goes just like that one clip from TheOdd1sOut. I hope you know the one.

MCBC reminds me of Batman in the way of. If he were to ever becoming a villain, he would become Batman who. Was not against murder. Probably. And also really bad at saving people.

Elaborating: It's very obvious he has so many complexes. Hero complex, Savior complex, his Ego. The fact that he has no special powers and can only fight physically, and never uses a weapon, tells me he feels super inferior compared to the team. He *has* to be the best, the one to come up with the ideas, the brains, the leader, or else he essentially has no role; no function within the group. I would not be surprised if he went rogue and tried to become Batman because he felt so useless and unneeded, like Morgana p5 style.

Which is really funny given Jimmy feels the same way and understands this best with how often the entire group others him and dumbs him down to just a robot rather than their friend.

Which, speaking of villainy, Jimmy going rogue would be entering a toxic friendship that love bombs him and makes him feel wanted and needed and treats him as just any other person since the others. Don't do that.

Seriously they are all so shitty to each other what is up with that.

Like they actually treat each other terribly. They should not be friends, probably.

Anyway

Jimmy and MCBC have a Eurylochus and Odysseus, Epic the Musical, type of dynamic if Eury was in the right. This isn't much of a hc I just thought you should know.

MCBC posts on the "aita" reddit a lot and the results always come back with "Everyone sucks here"

Can you guys tell I have a favorite Aquabat

Okay wait another thing to discuss: How they're constantly broke. What is happening. Why does MCBC not pay them? Does he get paid in the first place? He clearly doesn't know how to manage their money if that's the case. And that's canon too with the episodes so far. This show has an underlying theme, to me, of how in our capitalistic society, even superheros are overworked and underpaid, to the point where they're literally at a constant threat of going homeless.

Speaking of, I assume they live in the battletram, is that actually because they're homeless and just live there??? Did they do it willingly, van-life style? I fear in my hcs it's the former. Someone please hire them they need jobs.

Okay I promised elaboration on MCBC and him cutting off contact from family/changing his name, this is why (credits to my friend for helping me come up with this!!!):

Essentially, he's an orphan. The only family he's ever had is a foster family, and it was not a kind one. They were incredibly Catholic, and forced the religion onto him, which he did not agree with. This especially explains his skepticism and dismissal of spirituality and ghosts and the like, especially towards Eaglebones, who is a religious-coded character.

That's right. I gave your funny superhero religious trauma. What are you going to do about it?

MCBC struggles to grow facial hair and that's why he has the drawn-on sharpie mustache. He's very particular about it too. Perfectionism.

God okay Sara try not to talk about the stupid fucking creature challenge, impossible. Lemme move off of him.

Crash!! My other fave. I actually really like the hc that while being unable to actually control his emotions, he's very in-tune with them. Like he's hyper-aware of what the feeling is, and what the route of the problem is/why he is feeling that feeling, but the issue is how to not react to said feeling.

He has low energy days too ofc ;0 I like to imagine he's very grumpy/sad and quiet when he has a low energy day. The others know that during this time, do not try to piss him off.

He has a resting bitch face to me. I can picture it. Like everyone sees him coming and are super scared of him until he gives that puppy dog smile and it takes a minute to load and realize it's the same guy.

I think he wears glasses!!! Idk. He seems like a guy who should wear glasses

Do you think he actually wanted to be an artist as a kid or is this just a hobby he picked up at some point? I kinda like the idea of kiddie Crash believing he'd grow up to be an artist. Vibes.

Anyway so if he was a villain he'd essentially be Steven Universe Future, but like, no one ever talked him down after he went nuts, ykwim? A good example is uhh "Only One Way" by JakeNeutron.

Okay I'm gonna stop talking now I forgot everything else.

And that's all! Keep in mind, I haven't seen s2 yet, so some of these hcs may change/be proven canon/be debunked, etc. But this is just all based on what s1 has taught me.

I'm so sorry this hcs post got turned into me rambling about my thoughts on this show and just what exactly is happening in their universe. I need somewhere to put it, and it's 3am, so I'm only half-paying attention to what I'm actually talking about (bad idea. Go to sleep, kids).

Anyways, we'll see how things go, but I hope this suffices, dear Aquabats fandom ;3

i just ran into some videos that made me have really big feelings so i want y'all to imagine something with me for a moment.

imagine you've been making music with someone. for quite a while, actually. long enough that you've seen him Go Through Some Shit and come out the other side of it. those deeply personal lyrics he writes? i bet you were there for at least some of what he wrote those songs about.

and when he sings those songs in front of a crowd, he cries.

your other bandmates could go comfort him, because they're out there walking around the stage with him. you respect why they often don't - either they're playing their own instruments, or working the crowd, or giving him the space to have those feelings, which is important.

(you know their hearts break for him too. all of you know it's healthier for him to cry it out than it is to bottle it up. you let him, even though it hurts.)

but they, at least, can comfort him. you? you can't go comfort him when he cries. you don't have that option. you are stuck behind your drum kit, watching your close friend and colleague cry his heart out. you were there for the reason he's crying, and you can't comfort him. your loyal fan base considers you the greatest drummer of your time, you have to keep playing. and you do. but you have to watch him cry.

all this to say shout out to ii for being a much stronger man than me, i would never survive being in his position, oh my god i would destroy the whole drum kit to hug the shit out of vessel are you fucking kidding me.

[twobellsilence]

Watched Emilia Pérez to see what all the fuss was about. I might drop an essay at some point, or maybe I will write it before angrily deleting it and trying not to think about this crap ever again, but just know that I am absolutely LIVID.

The people praising this are so hypocritical I hope that when this pompous piece of SHIT of a director decides to make a film "exploring usamerican society" where a school shooter transitions and becomes an anti-school-shooting advocate that helps locate the bodies of missing school shooting victims with the help of other school shooters and they die and become a national hero, and also all the actors are like Russian or some shit and don't even know how to speak English for more than two sentences and also the director refuses to record in the US because "it didn't fit his image of the country" despite it literally being the same fucking country he's "inspired" by, y'all praise him once again for his bold narrative and unashamedly "real" representation. Fuck you
