ateez if a curvier girl liked them
disclaimer!! i am 100% sure these boys would like you for you and not for how many curves you have. you are beautiful no matter what !!! as a curvier girl myself, writing this made me happy hehe
seonghwa
Tumblr media
letā€™s be honest. seonghwa loves curvy girls
i mean he loves all girls, but smth abt a curvy lady gets him going
so imagine his face when a curvy girl likes him !!!!!
youā€™d tell him ā€œseonghwa... u kinda cute doeā€ and heā€™d be likešŸ˜³šŸ˜ƒ
heā€™s had his eye on you for a while
he jus luvs your personality and your humour
and your curves
tbh heā€™s snuck a glance every now and then
youā€™d bend down to grab the tv remote and suddenly heā€™s blushing and thinking of everything heā€™d do to u omg
or youā€™d wear a crop top and sit down and your belly might show a lil bit and he melts in his seat
all he wants is to feel ur pretty body
but .. unfortunately u didnā€™t think that he would like you
you thought that he only had his eye out for the slimmer girls, but that was simply not true queen
so it took u a sec to confess your feelings for him
but once you did you were so surprised at his response
ā€œhey seonghwa, i know that you probably donā€™t think the same but like i rlly think ur cute and funny and pretty and i rlly like u but i know iā€™m not rlly ur type and like thatā€™s fine-ā€œ
ā€œwait!!! u like meā€
ā€œi like u too !!!!!!! who tf told u that ur not my type bc i will beat them up ur gorgeous who told u that >:((((ā€œ
and u explain to him that it was just ur brain and he says Never to think that about yourself !!!! bc you are beautiful !!!!
and then ur both just uwu in love with each other and heā€™s in love w ur curves and ur in love with his chicken legs and itā€™s amazing and wonderful and youā€™re so happy you said something bc otherwise you wouldnā€™t have found the love of ur life :ā€™)
hongjoong
Tumblr media
hongjoong is Obsessed
obsessed w your thighs and your tummy and your booty
when u tell him u like him heā€™s not only like ā€œholy shit i like you tooā€ heā€™s imagining alllllll the things he can do w u and ur curves
when u first start going out and dating and such itā€™s great itā€™s amazing he makes you laugh and you feel beautiful bc he makes you feel beautiful
but when you start opening up to him about your insecurities you thought things would change
but they didnā€™t !!!!!!!! he started loving u harder
and every day since that first time you cried in his arms he tells you youā€™re beautiful
ā€œhi honey u look gorgeousā€
ā€œbaby !!!!! i love that dress on youā€
ā€œhey bb, since i canā€™t see you today iā€™m just letting u know that youā€™re beautiful !! and i love and miss you !!!!ā€
ā€œthereā€™s my fav tummy!!ā€
he will not Stop telling you how beautiful u are youā€™re not complaining

and heā€™s not shy abt it either ;)
yunho
Tumblr media
ok listen up sweeties
yunho doesnā€™t rlly pay attention to figure
i mean ofc he LOves your body and he thinks youā€™re beautiful
but he would not like you if not for your personality
which is absolutely amazing
and so he doesnā€™t rlly understand when you tell him that you donā€™t wanna eat that ice cream or the pizza
he thinks youā€™re beautiful (bc you are) so why donā€™t u think youā€™re beautiful too ??????
why wonā€™t u eat w him ????
why wont you take ur shirt off in front of him ???
so one day he brings u mcdonaldā€™s and a shamrock milkshake yummy!!!!
and he sits down w u and watches you try and do everything but eat
so he stops u and looks at u and tells u everything youā€™ve ever wanted to hear
ā€œbabe plz eat in front of me... i think your body is beautiful and i think youā€™re beautiful and i would not buy u food if i didnā€™t think soā€
and u know this is true bc yunho loves his food and his own shamrock shakes
so u smile at him and lay in his arms and u eat that damn burger!!!!!!
he makes all your insecurities go away
he loves u so much u literally canā€™t breathe
heā€™s always hugging you and feeling you up and wrapping his huge arms around u
and he makes u so comfy with yourself
and you love him
and he loves u
yeosang

ā€œdude!!! stop destroying my fucking hous- uh uh h-hi y/ nā€

san
Tumblr media

but externally heā€™s like heh he h wassup
and he makes hand gestures at u like outlining ur curvy body
and winking at u
and letā€™s be honest he may or may not have slapped dat ass a few times
and even though itā€™s kinda nasty u kinda like it
u know he means well and itā€™s just one way he shows his love and appreciation for u
and he wouldnā€™t do it if you told him no !!! consent is key
and u consent bc u like the way he gets slightly flustered everytime he does it
eventually u have to give in one day bc heā€™s been teasing you long enough
so one day ur walking by him and he smacks ur dump truck and u spin around and grab his arm and pull him up to ur chest
and heā€™s like HUH
and ur like hi sannie
and heā€™s like ā€œh-hiā€
AND THEN U KISS HIM
AND HE LOVES IT
and heā€™s feeling u up and he sits you down and pulls him into his lap
and ur scared that ur too much for that
so when u start pulling away heā€™s like ā€œNO I LIKE U HERE STAY U LOOK SO ORETTY SITTING ON MEā€
and u giggle and stay
and then more kissing and cuddling and loving
and he makes u laugh and feel good
and u make him happy and so excited all the time
and itā€™s sooo good omg he luvs allllll of u so much
mingi
Tumblr media
i may have a soft spot for this man
heā€™s jus so weird and funky
but heā€™s so cute like idk
donā€™t tell seonghwa
ANYWAY
those are your exact thoughts abt him too
your relationship was always like....there was tension there
ofc u always thought abt him
and he always thought abt u
u lived in his head rent free
ur curves and dimples and amazing bodyodyody
accompanied w ur amazing personality!!! what could he not love
so when u became friends he was already obsessed w u
heā€™s always whiny and needy for ur attention
when the boys are there heā€™s like ā€œšŸ˜ŽšŸ˜ˆšŸ’ŖšŸ¦µā€
BUT WHEN YOURE THERE
he does a full 180
his voice goes from deep and scruffy to all soft
the boys clown him for it
but he doesnā€™t care
he sends u memes all the time
he texts you every day
at first it was an occasional hey wsp and now itā€™s like ā€œgood morning!! howā€™d u sleepā€ ā€œhey bb girl wanna go get bobaā€ ā€œu looked rlly good todayā€
it makes ur heart flutter
and when he started calling u baby girl in PERSON
U DIED
and tbh he didnā€™t mean to say it the first time it just slipped out BUT he loved the way it made u blush and look down and cross your legs a lil
so he just couldnā€™t stop saying it
eventually the reaction u had went down a lil bc u got used to it
and that was when he decided he needed to do more
so eventually he got up the courage on a boba date to stop u and sit u down on a bench
and when u were like yes what is it mango
it took him a sec bc u looked so PRETTY in your dress
your thighs crossed and the way your boobies sat in it
he couldnā€™t help but stare (respectfully)
and u were like HELLo
and he cleared his throat and was like ā€œur really prettyā€
and u blushed and covered yourself w ur arms
and he was like No >:( ur gorgeous and took your hands in his
and kissed them and kissed your arm all the way up to ur face
and he kissed your cheeks and was like these cheeks are so cute
and kissed ur nose and was like i love your nose
and then ur lips
and he didnā€™t have to say anything for you to know he loved your lips just as much as he loved your everything else
wooyoung
Tumblr media
okay if i thought hongjoong was obsessed .
wooyoung is a whole other story
as soon as u step into the room ur the only one that matters
he would stop answering the boys
he would only be looking at you
trying his best to make u laugh it works
bc he loves the way your face lights up when u smile
and how your body shakes when u laugh
and he loves talking to u
abt anything and everything
so he becomes your very best friend
and when u get comfortable to share your insecurities with him he gets so sad and mad
he gets so ANGERY
heā€™s like WHO SAID THAT WHY WOULD U THINK THAT U ARE AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL AND AKSJDJAJFJAKL
and one day ur ranting to him about something SOME DUMB ASS BOY said to u in class
AND HES LIKE I WILL BEAT HIM UP NO ONE TALKS TO MY BABY LIKE THAT
and ur like šŸ˜³ ā€œy-your baby?ā€
and heā€™s like oh fuck fuck fuck fuck
he starts to apologize and ramble
and u just giggle
heā€™s like ??????
and ur like ā€œiā€™ll be your baby wooyoungieā€
ā€œif youā€™ll be mine tooā€
AND HE CANNOT BELIEVE
he runs up to u and picks u up and spins u around and he kisses u and heā€™s like MY BABY
ā€œdats ma baby and aint nobody finna touch emā€
^^ thatā€™s what heā€™s like w u
and heā€™s so happy youre his and heā€™s yours
cuz now he gets all your curves to himself hehehehehehehehehe
jongho
Tumblr media
jongho is such a softie
especially for u
he melts everytime he sees your soft skin and your pretty face
he tries really hard to be all tuff around u
but it never pans out
bc heā€™s so in luv w how pretty you are
in his mind u are the most perfect person ever
he lets u vent to him abt anything
he likes to talk to u abt everything
deep or not
and one day youā€™re like ā€œhey jongho, iā€™ve never heard u talk abt a girl beforeā€
and he goes all blushy and is like ha ha i uh i guess u havenā€™t
and u ask if he has a crush
and he goes even redder
and ur like ā€œU DO OMG TELL KE ABT HERā€
sooooo he does
ā€œwell she really pretty and has such a kind heart and beautiful eyes and an amazing smile and the prettiest curves iā€™ve been talking to her for a while and she makes me so happyā€
ā€œsheā€™s so gorgeous but she doesnā€™t think so and it makes me really angry i just wanna tell her sheā€™s beautifulā€
and ur like ā€œawww just tell her then! sheā€™ll love hearing that from youā€ oblivious mf
so jongho sits up straight and looks u right in the eyes and says ā€œok then. youā€™re beautiful y/nā€
youā€™re eyes go wide and u open ur mouth to say smth but nothing comes out
so u just hug him
and he wraps his arms around u and says ā€œitā€™s true, youā€™re so beautifulā€
and u just hug him tighter
and the night is perfect :,)
and heā€™s perfect
and heā€™s so grateful u asked him that question

do you have any ben/leslie headcanons! i love your posts abt them so much it's great to see someone get as emotional abt them as i am asjdkajhjd
i got this message and i was like "god, i dont really know if i have any headcanons" and then i opened my notes app and started typing and didn't stop for over an hour
i'm literally putting this under a break and organizing it into categories bc it's absurdly long
here it is
A COLLECTION OF BEN AND LESLIE HEADCANONS
PRE-RELATIONSHIP/S3
basically canon but leslie definitely had a crush on a young benji wyatt and followed the story religiously for the first couple months before she started college
ben is only slightly jealous leslie had ann go out with chris to try and get more money for the parks budget rather than leslie asking him out with the same goal. he knows itā€™s insane, unethical, and illogical but heā€™s still excited that he gets to spend the night with her on a date plus two other people even if it is to accuse her of bribery.
ann realizes early on that leslie was attracted to ben and teases her mercilessly about it. she thinks itā€™s absolutely hilarious that leslie wants to make out with "mean ben.ā€ after april and andyā€™s wedding, she realizes it's more than just attraction and she lays off.
before ben can even think rationally about what heā€™s doing, heā€™s in line at bed, bath, and beyond with a crock pot in his arms, calling stephanie to ask her to send him their familyā€™s chicken soup recipe
ann knew ben liked her from the beginning and was totally positive when she ran into him in the hospital asking for leslieā€™s room number while holding jjā€™s waffles and a tub of homemade soup.
ben realizes heā€™s falling in love with leslie when he is at city hall with her until 3am one night trying to budget for the amount of cotton candy machines she wants for the harvest festival. in his exhaustion, he naively believes her when she tells him sheā€™ll go home in a bit so he leaves. he never gets a text from saying she made it home so he stops at jjā€™s the next morning and brings a takeout container of waffles and a coffee complete with an outlandish amount of whipped cream and sugar to the parks department. he finds her asleep in the conference room. he starts trying to convince sweetums to donate more cotton candy machines that afternoon.
chris had to have known ben liked leslie. heā€™s not an idiot. in the deleted scene from their wedding, they read out emails from their ā€œtumultuous first week in pawneeā€ and chris writes to ben saying, ā€œwhy are you so focused on leslie knope?ā€ ben replies saying, ā€œiā€™m not. whatever. shut up.ā€ thereā€™s no way chris is this oblivious. ben takes her out for a beer. ben pays out of pocket for a childrenā€™s performer to help her out. ben shows up on chris and annā€™s date just because he thinks leslie might be there. chris canā€™t be this dumb. but when they take the city manager jobs in pawnee, he knows it canā€™t happen so he cuts ben off when he starts to ask about dating someone in city hall. he cracks down on the rule in front of leslie after the tom incident to hammer it in. he starts setting ben up on a bunch of dates to try and head it off. he sends them to indianapolis for the little league pitch because, realistically, he knows theyā€™re the best bet for success but makes sure to interrupt their dinner and invites them to his apartment to continue to run interference the rest of the night. after their fights in 4.06-4.08, he hopes he wonā€™t have to worry anymore. the next work day, they come into his office looking nervous and happy and he knows heā€™s about to lose the partner and best friend thatā€™s been by his side for the past decade.
april and andy knew they were secretly dating. it went unspoken aside from a few implicit teasing remarks from april and a few suggestive attempted high fives from andy but leslie assured ben they wouldnā€™t tell anyone despite their ostensible behavior.
BREAK UP
ben had commissioned the liā€™l sebastian plush for leslie after he had died but the toy shop didnā€™t finish it until after they broke up. he felt bad not going to pick it up so he did despite not being able to give it to her. he kept it for all those months and sometimes thought about getting rid of it but could never bring himself to do it.
when leslie made personalized copies her books for her friends with individualized annotations and notes in the bylines, she had two copies for ben. there was one that she gave him during their breakup that was very simplified and watered down where the note basically just said ā€œiā€™m really glad you decided to stay in pawnee.ā€ then there was a second copy that she kept while they were split up that was totally covered in notes and random thoughts she couldnā€™t say during their time apart. she gives him that copy when they get back together and it may or may not be the best gift heā€™s ever received.
april was much less abrasive with them during the break up because sheā€™s a sweetheart and wants her friends to be happy.
the first time leslie admitted she was in love with him was during a long night of drinking and crying at annā€™s house
ben craved the taste of sugar during their breakup because he got used to tasting the sweetness when he kissed her
ben found himself unable to sleep at night without the sound of leslie talking in her sleep to comfort him
april texted leslie the night of the halloween party to let her know that ben and andy were at the hospital after a fight and everything was fine and she didnā€™t need to worry. leslie was mad at andy for a few days after and he couldnā€™t figure out why.
the only photo in benā€™s bedroom was of himself, leslie, and liā€™l sebastian at the harvest festival. if he got caught staring at it and crying, he would just say he missed liā€™l sebastian so much.
april and andy started having star wars and star trek movie nights to try and cheer ben up
DOMESTIC
ben and leslie got in the habit of having weekly game nights with april and andy during the campaign since they were all basically living together. it became a tradition that kept going as often as they could make it happen, even after the kids were born. they try to have game night at least once a month. april pretends to hate it.
one of my absolute favorite ideas about them is that she sleeps much better when heā€™s around to keep her grounded. after they get together for good, she starts getting closer to 5 hours of sleep a night.
another favorite involving leslieā€™s sleeping: ben is typically accustomed to tuning out incoherent nonsense that she babbles in her sleep but she also has some of her best ideas when sheā€™s not busy trying to focus on a million different things. when he hears her coming up with legitimately good ideas or making speeches or having solid debate arguments, he takes out the notebook he keeps in his nightstand to record her thoughts and quotes. he revisits and revises the notes to strengthen her statements and make them more professional and less rambling but makes sure to keep her distinct voice apparent in them.
ben prefers pancakes to waffles but he will go to the grave with that secret
this isnā€™t a headcanon because nbc posted it but one of benā€™s holidays on leslieā€™s calendar is watch synchronization day which is the day they celebrate syncing their watches to, as leslie puts it, ā€œalways be in harmony, like our heartsā€ which is just one of the sweetest fucking things in the world
leslie makes ben read and watch all the harry potters because he didnā€™t get into them when he first tried. ben is much more of a success than ann. she buys him a ravenclaw scarf for christmas.
their first fight as a couple was a historical debate gone awry
since ben clearly has some affinity for custom stuffed animals, he has some made for the triplets.
theyā€™re both dog people but they adopt a cat because sonia and stephen beg for one and it does fit their busy lifestyle much better. they love the cat. they get a dog when the kids are older and life is slightly less hectic.
they both love striped shirts and sweaters so much that they have to make a conscious effort to avoid wearing them on the same day and matching
leslie makes sweets and bakes desserts while ben typically handles cooking the actual meals
BASED ON EPISODES, QUOTES, AND THROWAWAY LINES
i always loved the ann/ben dynamic in bus tour because thereā€™s been such an obvious shift in annā€™s attitude towards him in this episode. maybe itā€™s because she and tom just broke up and she just turned chris down again and sheā€™s frustrated with relationships but i think itā€™s her realizing ben isnā€™t going anywhere. since the campaign is winding down, she realizes that things arenā€™t gonna go back to the way they were because ben is now part of this and heā€™s clearly in it for the long haul. annā€™s definitely jealous that ben is just as important to leslie as she is and she now knows sheā€™s never gonna get that full attention back. ann sits ben down to have a real ā€œdonā€™t you dare hurt herā€ speech after this ep and before win, lose, or draw. this is when he tells ann he wants to marry her.
they discover they both adore the princess bride after ben says ā€œas you wishā€ to her one night and after that it becomes their movie.
the wildflower mural becomes a thing between them when ben says he considered that to be their first date, prompting leslie to tell him what the mural means to her.
ben puts banjo boogie bonanza on one of the mix cds he gives leslie at the beginning of their relationship
harrison ford movie nights start after they both reveal they had a crush on him as a kid. ben was obsessed with han solo and leslie was into indiana jonesā€™ whole history teacher vibe.
they basically hate each otherā€™s taste in music and stop exchanging mix cds once that becomes apparent that they arenā€™t gonna find much common ground. they both love tom petty, al green, and etta james and music in that vein though.
ben makes leslie watch game of thrones just to try to explain why heā€™s called her khaleesi. she gets into it, not so much because of the show itself, but because of how passionate her boyfriend is about it.
they start learning basic french during the s4 campaign because they think it will be useful to have a basic multilingual vocabulary for their political careers and because leslie confesses she has always dreamed of seeing paris. they study spanish next.
ben makes leslie watch the star wars prequels just so he can complain to her during them. he doesnā€™t think sheā€™s paying attention and then he reads about midichlorians in the paper.
ann is also in on benā€™s plan to sneak vegetables into leslieā€™s waffles.
they will sometimes jokingly refer to themselves as the ā€œdream teamā€ or ā€œdynamic duoā€ because, despite chrisā€™s absurdity, itā€™s true
iā€™m open to literally any origin of this because no matter what itā€™s perfect but i like to think that ā€œi love you and i like youā€ started at some point in season 4 when, at some point, leslie went ā€œi like youā€ and ben replied ā€œyou like me?ā€ ā€œmhmā€ ā€œhm just like me?ā€ ā€œyes i like you. i love you and i like you. both.ā€ ā€œmmm i love you and i like you tooā€
i barely even register some of these things as headcanons since they just live so solidly in my brain
this might be my favorite ask ever thank you for loving benslie enough to ask me this and be genuinely interested
if anyone read all of this, i love you

have you seen/would u recommend pacific rim 2? ive heard some things about newt and idk lol
I feel like Im in the minority that actually did think pru was fun but that being said it ended SO abruptly and with like three separate plotlines completely abandoned that I was really frustrated for days after watching it until I had processed everything and had time to think deeply about it lol it just seemed rly unfinished?? it feels like it was deliberately made as 1/2 of two sequels and there needs to be one more to tie everything up. actually Iā€™m gonna ramble abt this bc I have a lot of thoughts (obvs spoilers under the cut)
the thing about the second one was that I genuinely was enjoying it right up until it ended because I swear to god the moment the end screen went up I yelled "what the fuck, that's it?" out loud into my bedroom bc I was so SHOCKED that THAT'S how it all ended, because it just seemed so incomplete?? Like it seemed like one half of a story, that will only be made whole if there's a third one to tie up all the plotlines that they didn't go through with in the second and if that's the case then I will be completely fine with it but if it doesn't or if they dont have a third one at all I will stay so frustrated lol. one silver lining to this is that the vibe of this movie was so different from the first that it almost feels easy to separate it and just imagine it as an AU if you prefer which is sort of nice; usually if a piece of media I like does something bad I feel all gutted and anxious and terrible that this is the canon I have to accept, but something abt this movie just made it feel like it was sort of a totally separate deal. maybe cuz only 3 of the original characters were in it idk
to start off: I felt like there were a couple of plotlines in it that were just sort of introduced and then never seen through which was very ????? Amara & Vik's weird hate-rivalry thing was one of them; Vik instantly has it out for Amara bc sheā€™s jealous, which is a very interesting concept, and then this prompts Amara to become hostile right back at her, which is also a very interesting concept, and then it never got resolved at all? like they couldve done something really cool with those two but it just never went anywhere. and then there was sort of a weird love triangle thing happening between Jake and Nate and Jules that felt so weird bc it had no significance to the plot at all and it felt like it was only thrown in there for the sake of having ~romantic drama~ idk maybe I wasnt paying too much attention and there was more to it than that but it really just seemed like they wanted to put romance in there and didnt want to bother to put any work into it
BUT the thing about romantic sub plots is that THERE ALREADY WAAAAS OOOOOOOOONE which brings me to the biggest frustration I have w this movie because--and DISCLAIMER, this was also my favourite plot point of the movie bc it was by far the most interesting, the biggest reason for me enjoying the movie at all, and the bit I feel like should have had WAY more attention--Newt and Hermann were like legitimately in love in this movie I swear to god I was watching it and thinking ā€œthis is GENUINELY the most blatantly gay thing Iā€™ve ever seen in a feature film and I know that straight ppl are very talented at writing gay romances completely by accident so itā€™s possible that they just accidentally did it this way but also it is REALLY goddamn obvious oh my gooood?ā€ (and then I did a lot of frantic googling and found out that I was right and Charlie Day & Burn Gorman knew what the fuck they were doing and I felt so validated lol), and yet despite this, the movie had them speak for the last time almost at the halfway point of the film and then spend the entire second half apart and not talking at all and even at the post-credits scene where Jake and Newt talked for a bit Hermann wasn't there?? not even behind Jake to give Newt any searching glances?? Nothing??
dude...Newt being possessed by the precursors is a HUGELY interesting concept that actually makes sense and I wish it had had more attention. Iā€™ve seen a lot of ppl say that pru butchered Newtā€™s character and I donā€™t 100% agree bc like...being possessed will change you lmao so while yes Iā€™m obviously sad that he wasnā€™t himself, I feel like it made sense that he had a slight personality change, because it...wasnā€™t him anymore. we donā€™t really see the Newt we all fell in love with in the first movie. we THINK weā€™re seeing him, but halfway through we find out weā€™re wrong.
my critiques with that plotline are basically that I wish the reveal had happened a little bit later on, and I wish that it had been a little more obvious I guess?? like, we definitely get hints of it (when Hermann excitedly asks Newt to help him with a dangerous unorthodox project and Newt says ā€œdude why are you doing something so risky when weā€™ve already got a good plan in motion? just wait for that to be done, itā€™s fineā€ and Hermann IS us, he IS the audience when he reacts, because this is a completely insane thing for Newt to say. Newt, who, in the first movie, was so obsessed with finding knowledge that he went behind the marshallā€™s back to literally risk his life doing something incredibly dangerous just to see what would happen? being given the opportunity to do the same kind of dangerous frivolous act and refusing? this is blatantly out of character, and Hermann is all of us when heā€™s shocked, ā€œwhat, you mean you...wonā€™t help me??ā€ which means it wasnā€™t bad writing on their part, it was purposefully supposed to stand out as something that was wrong and something that we needed to pay attention to. that was a really good scene to hint that something was Not Right with Newt), and I wish there had been a bunch more like it. I think the reveal should have been saved for the end of the second act; I think that should have been the moment that act 2 of a story usually has, that dreadful event that happens that leaves the main characters feeling completely hopeless and unsure what to do.
I also wish that he had managed to break through more than That One Scene, I think it wouldā€™ve been more dramatic if heā€™d had a few moments where he managed to take control for a second to remind us that heā€™s still in there and still fighting, and Iā€™m sad they didnā€™t do that. I saw a fan comic that touched on this idea and I think itā€™s brilliant, even the idea of him suddenly getting a nosebleed and acting distracted to show that thatā€™s the Real Him trying to fight through would have been sooooooooo good.
I also feel like it didnā€™t make any sense for Nate to be the one to subdue him in the end, I dont even think those two interact at all so like, why was it him?? it would have been so much more dramatic and heartbreaking if Hermann had been the one to confront him so they couldā€™ve had a little conversation on the roof where Newt could once again break through for a second before getting taken over and then Hermann could like idk have a taser hidden behind him that he uses to subdue him and THAT wouldve been a way sadder and more interesting way to do it. I also think Hermann shouldve been the one to speak to him in the post credits scene, or to have him in the background behind Jake just watching him sadly so we can get a couple shots of intense eye contact like UGH I just wish there had been more interaction between the two of them after the reveal happened!! When the movie was over and I realized they never spoke again I felt so upset!!! they're soulmates!! they're literally in love!! this has been CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and segueing in from the soulmate thing, another thing that made me sad was that nobody came in pairs anymore :( aside from Newt and Hermann, they were the only ones gjdfk but in the first one every character had another character that they were paired up with, both for drifting reasons and just for plot reasons (except Chau and Tendo but Iā€™m pretty sure there's actually significance to that too), and in the second one it just sort of felt like everyone was drifting with each other with no strong connection needed and that made it feel way less special. granted, the movie takes place ten years after the first one so in that time maybe technology advanced to the point where you didn't need a strong neural connection to drift anymore, but for the sake of the story it would have been way better if they'd kept the whole soulmates concept from the first one, it made it way stronger and more special
so yeah in conclusion I did think pru was enjoyable and I probably would watch it again some time but also it definitely pales in comparison to the first one and Iā€™m desperately hoping we get one more so they can tie everything together and FIX THINGS KFGH itā€™s not too late!!!!! I wish I could write Pacific Rim 3 I genuinely think I would do a good job I love storytelling and Iā€™m very passionate about these characters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

also i saw you got hades!!! what do you think so far!! it might be my favorite game of all time tbh i have almost 100 hours in it :ā€™D
ok so i have played hades before, since my friend bought it months ago and we used to hang out while i played it (not as much anymore since we're occupied making our slow way through the aa games but like) and i got to like. early elysium playing with her so the last few days have def not been my first acquaintance w the game but GOD IT'S SO GOOD. tragically no game can compare to ace attorney in terms of how much brain space it's cursed to take up at all times but hades is without question my second favorite game. i think having played w my friend a bit was good tho bc it let my OVERWHELMING EXCITEMENT abt this game simmer a bit before i bought it and now i am just. incredible excited. i have a billion thoughts so heres another readmore lol
i've never liked roguelikes since i hate losing progress on things or doing things over and over again but hades works somehow?? like (ok today i was weird overcaffeinated so i've been a little hyperfocused anyway) but i spent like 5 hours literally doing the same thing over and over and it was SO FUN. altho i met patroclus three times before realizing he wouldn't talk to u until you opened his bit in the codex and that fact is bringing me physical pain :( u know me i always go for the dad characters in media so my main goal since i started the game has been to reunite him and achilles and it's driving me insane i missed all those opportunities to give him nectar >:( also it's fun because it's one of those pieces of media that i can like. trust if that makes sense? it was the same way with rgu where i can see what they're doing and trust the execution will be good and there won't be anything weird and homophobic/sexist/etc in the middle that i'll have to ignore. its rly nice.
also also zag is genuinely my favorite video game protag ever (along with apollo justice who. inarticulate rambling i love him so much) like he enhances the game so much. his little witty commentary all the time (side note the fact that the game has subtitles is so nice and something i didn't realize i wanted until they gave it to me) and how he's so stubborn and he knows to stand his ground (his conversations with hades in the final fight r so good) but also he's a genuinely kind person and he loves his friends and family and puppy dog and :pleading: i've got a soft spot for talking to achilles bc i like achilles but also i love how zag responds! he loves his family and he's so grateful to them for taking care of him. love that. the way he talks to meg and than is awesome too like it would be so easy for them to write a protag who gets annoyed with them both but he DOESN'T and i LOVE HIM. idk i think the game has such incredibly human and loving characters for something whose main cast is almost entirely immortal.
im rly glad i decided to buy it for myself tho! it's fun to start like. strategizing in the game. like the shield is my favorite weapon (bc i like ranged attacks but can't aim for my life) and then having doom on the special.. chefs kiss. love walking away from an enemy and then them dying behind me. idk i love it so so much. game of all time. i also am OBSESSED w how well balanced it is. like everything seems somehow both super hard and completely achievable and thats so fun. like the hades boss fight? the fact that he has three stages (i think) is jsdklfjsf especially since i can barely get through the first but also i can get through the first so i know i can get through the rest and thats soo good. like the way you can tell you're improving both because you're stronger but also the game has such a good learning curve that you actively get better at the game??? kjsldfj i love how much there is to discover!! going to the codex and seeing how much you haven't found is so exciting and idkidk i love it.
anyway yeah i love this game so much. (i could gush for hours abt the art and CHARACTER DESIGN OH MY GOD but like i'm sure u already know so. i will leave it at the fact that i saw zag and than interact for the first time and my only thought was oh my god it's narumitsu. i mean than is obvious but zag has backwards phoenix hair. also chaos... chefs kiss oh my god. NYX???? HYPNOS?? PATROCLUS AND EURYDICE AND ORPHEUS?? was going to keep listing characters but then i wouldn't be able to stop so :sob:)

for the oc ask meme mayhaps numbers 1, 2, 3, 13, and 16? :^D
!!!!!!!! thanks so much 4 asking :ā€™) but im sorry if this reply is late i didnt notice this ask in my inbox until today aaaaa
also this got long. and i ramble abt my ocs a lot so Fair Warning but pls read bc i lov my babies
1. Meanest VS Kindest
i was gonna say arcane or mordecai for this since theyre my Iconic Antagonistic Toons i guess but then i remembered raelynn literally uh. kills toons. so! its gotta be her esp since she rly enjoys what she does for the most part n every so occasion sheā€™ll frame a toon for a crime as an excuse 2 hurt them.
the kindest w/o a doubt is remedy!!ā€¦ā€¦he lives 2 make toons feel better and refuses 2 be on offense in battles bc he doesnt want 2 hurt anyone, even cogs. he knows that puts his battle teams down 1 offense toon but he doesnt care, heā€™ll believe in his teams v much and he just wants 2 support them 2 keep going
2. Tallest VS Shortest
the tallest overall of my toontown ocs is emrys since hes a cog lol, hes 7ā€²4ā€³ ! my tallest toon currently is arcane at 5ā€²11ā€³ :^0 then my shortest toons are tied at 3ā€²11ā€³ and they are remedy and apple juice :ā€™3 they are kids after all haha
heres a lil height chart w/ the tallest n shortest 4 fun :3c (didnt draw entire new full body pics tho lol im lazy)
Tumblr media
it looks like remedy is offering arcane the toon-up and arcane is just like ā€œughhghgghhhhhā€ IM LAUGHING
3. Most humble VS Most arrogant
jejune is rlllllly humble tbh n he hardly attempts 2 draw attention to himself, despite being v out-there w/ his limited gags and bright appearance. he takes praise awkwardly n never knows what 2 say bc even justĀ ā€œthank uā€ seems strained 2 him so he usually just laughs it off and tries 2 slip away. when asked why hes so colorful/why he only carries trap, sound, n drop if he doesnt want attention, jj just shrugs bc he honestly doesnt know himself. sometimes he thinks its bc he deserves 2 feel uncomfortable. on the outside he tries 2 be as chill as possible, tho, and heā€™ll avoid eye contact w/ random toons constantly
syncā€™s parents (austere & verity) are definitely the most arrogant. they met by being petty after all asjkhfjkdhkfj not 2 mention they abandoned sync bc they were so obsessed w/ themselves. theres hardly a time verity or austere arent throwing each other under the bus when bragging abt themselves x___x theyā€™ll both fight u if u dare try 2 underestimate them or disregard them n their achievements.
13. Most forgiving VS Most grudgeful
ernestine is probably the most forgiving bc she just wants 2 be able 2 get along w/ others and doesnt wanna have to stress over any potential grudges. they think it takes more energy 2 keep grudges than to not so theyre way likely 2 forgive u if u do smth bad (whether to her or not) ofc theres exceptions tho like w/ friends and family ernie may resent u 4 a long time depending on what happens. when they do hold grudges, its always over rly big things likeā€¦. ernie hates arcane bc when they recently met arcane once started a physical fight w/ monique and ernie was there so frantically she tried to get arcane 2 stop but they just hit her away. the attack was impulsive so some other toons saw and broke it off before reporting arcane but needless 2 say ernie was Pissed n monique had some injuries
the most grudgeful is ever so obviously mordecai, given that her life is focused around her grudge on monique 4 ruining her life as she sees it. even before then she was rather skeptical to others n always noted mentally of the times these individual toons would run into her or such. its the small petty things that would be what she used for a lot of her judgements. and in the end this grudge on monique goes as far as 2 essentially become her downfall
16. Most secretive VS Most open
arcane is rly untrusting due 2 their past feeling so fabricated and plus bc they didnt grow up around toons. they never feel truly comfortable telling any toon abt their past or even just general stuff about themself bc they know theyre different and dont like that about themself. if ppl ask abt their past arcane usually says they were a slow learner bc they got gags way later than most toons as well as the gags they had 2 earn w/ xp. theyā€™ll only be willing 2 open up if they can tell the other person very likely will be empathetic (like w/ mordecai she mentions disliking toons and understanding cogs more, which arcane feels similarly)ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦i wrote this abt arcane then thought abt raelynn whos also rly rly secretive forā€¦.. p obvious reasons like gotta cover up that murdering lifestyle yeaā€¦.. uh so thought id mention her since its Quite Significant how secretive she is too lol. if she was open in the slightly sheā€™d almost definitely get erased (how id imagine they refer 2 execution but its p damn rare)
so 4 most open um!! id say capsaicin bc hes always willing 2 speak his mind and tend 2 give out Too Much Information when its rly unneeded lolā€¦ā€¦. its part of his desire to be unpredictable and an overall wild dude!! tho it uh backfires a lot on him bc well lots of toons dont appreciate his comments and some even sayĀ ā€œhes not unpredictable bc i can predict that he will try to be unpredictable.ā€ it rly stresses him out if he overthinks how others view him negatively but he tries 2 ignore it by continuing 2 find out whatever he can say 2 others so they can be astounded
