#it blindsided him

[myheartismadeofstars]

imagining a scene for my TGCF omegaverse au where O!Mu Qing makes it very clear at the beginning of their (sexual) relationship that he doesn't want children (yet), even discussing abortifacients and that it would be Feng Xin's job as the Alpha to get them, and he and FX go about avoiding it for quite a while, until MQ finds out (after a few years of being together not soon at all) they messed up somewhere and he tells FX trying to gauge his response to it, and FX tells him he'll get the tea as soon as possible, and MQ is hurt and angry at what he sees as a rejection of him and FX is completely confused because it was MQ that said he didn't want children (and hadn't said anything about rethinking this choice). MQ tries to fight but FX refuses to fight back, eventually able to restrain MQ enough to confront him about it and when MQ finally admits he did want to keep it now, FX is thrilled!

Something about MQ getting mad at FX for holding up his end of a deal they made years ago when MQ told him it was what he wanted and assuming nothing has changed... because MQ didn't tell him anything had strikes me as very accurate.

honestly hilarious that the lannister siblings are all history freaks in different direction. cersei rolls her eyes that jaime doesn't know what the second blackfyre rebellion was about while he rattles off the tale of ser luthor pisseryon of daeron i's kingsguard, who served for all of seven moons before he died shitting himself en route to dorne. meanwhile tyrion's sitting in the corner reading maester leomore's neo-myrxist critique of archmaester hargreave's account of the Storming of the Dragonpit (The Warrior Himself: Examining the Dying of the Dragons in the Light of the Seven) and not paying attention to it one bit because he’s moping about how everyone in kings landing hates him, the imp, because he’s ugly and rich, and not because he’s a feudal overlord who is fundamentally detached from the immediate concerns of his starving subjects

Thinking about how, at the end of the day, at the fatal moment, the sunset of the Republic, it wasn’t Yoda, or Obi-Wan, or even the Chosen One himself standing in the way of Palpatine. It was Mace Windu.

Mace Windu, the inventor of Vaapad and Master of Form VII, the Jedi's strongest duelist, the only person to ever defeat Palpatine in combat. Mace Windu, Master of the Jedi Council and the youngest Master ever appointed to it, the revered leader of the Order. Mace Windu, who forgave even those who tried to kill him, who risked his life over and over again for his troops, who, after 3 years of desperate war, tried to negotiate with battle droids. Mace Windu, who knew the clones were created by the Sith and chose to trust them, who saw every Shatterpoint in the Republic, and loved it still, and fought for it until his last breath, until he was betrayed by Anakin, who he believed in and trusted despite everything.

Mace Windu, High General and hero of the Republic, the embodiment of the Light, the last and greatest champion of the Order, the best Jedi to ever live.

my heart dropped when i read the statement that sm put out re: taeil, genuinely the last thing i expected to read today. i’m shocked, disappointed, but most of all- i’m angry.

angry at what he’s done, angry at seeing some fans defend him, angry at those turning this into a gotcha moment to promote or lift their faves up. please, this isn’t just some discussion on the internet- there is a very real victim, a very real woman at the heart of all this. i hope she gets the justice and healing she deserves.

no bc nothing that will happen in what's left of the witcher will ever top the raw unadulterated You Had To Be There Moment of being a yennskier enjoyer watching s2 for the first time when it came out after only having yennefer & jaskier bonding in the form of blood of elves and post-s1 fandom content and being Absolutely Fucking Blindsided by such high undiluted amounts of yennskier that I ended the season feeling like every single fucking person in this goddamn house md screenshot at once

Sometimes I think abt how fucked up it is that in the beginning, Nicky said 'I vote seth gets killed' or something of the like, and then he actually does

Nicky was given the gift of prophecy, called that Neil wasn’t straight and NOBODY believed him. He called that Seth was gonna die. What else does he know?? What else is he not telling us???

WHAT WAS HE GOING TO SAY. WHAT WAS HE GOING TO SAY! WHAT WAS HE-

Sun Wukong: "Kid—new armor isn't going to cut it! We have to hit Azure with everything we've got! You can't just, ignore this whole part of your power because it scares you!"

MK: "I-"

-

LITERALLY WHAT. WHAT WAS IT. MK HONEY SWEETIE DARLING WHAT WERE YOU GOING TO TELL WUKONG HERE

KakaIru getting together during the timeskip between part 1 and 2 is the funniest possibility because it means when Naruto comes back to the village he'll be like "Shikamaru and Temari makes sense makes sense - oop there goes Asuma-sensei and Kurenai-sensei pretending not to date again okay... Kakashi-sensei and Iru-nii kissing... WAIT WHAT"

Few questions about our favorite Train Twins.

1. What is the relationship between the Submas Twins and Drayden?

2. Thoughts on Drayton, Drayden's confirmed Grandson (I am just confusedby him)?

3. What do you think Drayton thinks of the Train Twins?

Bonus question if Drayton reacts to Ingo's disappearance in a way that fits his character?

Ok now that I've actually played the DLC and met Drayton I'm more confident answering this.

So Drayden is the twins bio uncle turned Father when he took them in after their parents were no longer able to care for them/ He had a bit of a time with some toddlers from Sinnoh that barely spoke Unoven and then gained aspects way way earler than normal. By this point his kids were pretty well grown anyway.

2) As for Drayton, from what I can tell from him is that he's pretty nice if a bit lazy. Caring and encouraging with a bit of a manipulative streak. Not in a bad way more in a he seems to just not be good at outright saying what he wants. He's also does not seem very good at "manipulating" as is. And another thing is that he seems to have a lot of expectations and pressure on his shoulders to essentially live up to his family legacy which may contribute to his being held back 3 years at the BB Academy.

As for aspects mmmm I don't see him as being the type to have actually fully evolved, or at all. Not 100% sure what he should be but I kinda like the idea of him having horsea aspects, fits his hair honestly.

3) Relationship wise with the twins, biologically they are cousins but function more as older brothers/silly uncles being only 5 years older than him. He doesn't see them super often but often enough for a decently close family. Family get togethers, visits, birthdays, holidays, ect.

But also they kind of are just another example in his family to live up to, another expectation on his shoulders. They're punctual, strong, driven, fully evolved, and battle facility heads which are near champion level trainers. Just two other examples in a long line to live up to.

In the same breath they're incredibly silly and always super encouraging of anything. If he said he wanted to be just a baker or something he's well aware they'd encourage it 100%

Bonus) Now as for his reaction to Ingo's disappearance,

I think he'd likely be at school when that happened, likely got a phone call that Ingo has been missing for a few days now and hasn't been found. Which is upsetting.

I can see him being uncharacteristically antsy and worried for a while waiting to hear any news. To the point that his friends are worried about him. But ultimately winds up accepting Ingo is likely dead after a month or two of no one finding him. Drayton can't exactly do anything to help and he does still have school. He is likely still hopeful that there will be news eventually, good or bad but dwelling on something he can't change is ultimately pointless and overall unhealthy.

i think part of why marc is so interesting from a rpf/general fandom perspective as a CHARACTER besides like idk, being the drama, is because yeah he’s a PR master and a frequent liar but he’s also like. so pathologically himself. spotty poker face. yapper. bad at little subtle social cues sometimes. intense. and he likes to be seen and known and understood! so even when he IS lying or doing blah blah pr speak, either there’s some layer of truth hidden near or inside the lie, his actions blatantly contradict said lie, or he will just straight up admit that he was lying later ! like he has to be himself he simply has to

Fire Nation Press

Reporter: Fire Lord Zuko, Ambassador Katara; rumors of a potential relationship between you both have been circling the last few months with no confirmation. Are you willing to go on the record today and admit what everyone already knows, that you’re in a relationship?

Zuko: No, because we’re not.

Katara: Yes, I’m afraid your information is outdated, sir. We aren’t dating-

Zuko: Exactly, now if you’ll excuse us we have a meeting to atten-

Katara: We’re engaged.

hey do y'all ever think about the fact that Charles probably has told Edwin about being beaten as a child at some point during their 34 years of friendship? And that Edwin likely never found it remarkable enough to ask further questions because back when he was alive, beating children was completely normal
