Odysseus' level of simping is so fucking high that when he's half drowned, unconscious and sleep talking, he's STILL going on about his wife
#like#half of his brain is occupied by penelope#at ANY given time#it does not matter the circumstances#when he opens his mouth there is always a 50/50 chance he will talk about his wife#epic the musical#epic the wisdom saga#wisdom saga spoilers

aventurine’s this very interesting combination of incredibly cunning, calculated, & brutal tbh while also having intense self esteem issues. he views every relationship as transactional and has no issue with using people to stay on top. he’s never left survival mode; considering his childhood, maybe he’s always been in it.
‘gilded’ describes him so well. not only is he still in a birdcage with his fancy clothes and riches covering up that he’s still in a place where he can’t escape, he also uses his persona to hide his perceived worthlessness underneath
#liiiike idk how to describe it. he’s brutal and that is directly bc he is a survivor & he still has that mindset of needing to survive#so it doesn’t matter what he does or who he does it to as long as he stays on top & wins in the end#& he carries this mindset even when he’s a stoneheart & on top of it all#hsr#thoughts#aventurine#like. his ruthlessness is very much so a part of him but it is also very much so a survival strategy#he’s just. per se. in different circumstances than where he learned it from

Some fans: Eloise is such a fake feminist, doesn't she see how some girls and women enjoy marriage? Doesn't she see how her privileges give her luxuries others don't? She's so selfish. She doesn't even use her words to support other women!
Also same fans: I wish Eloise would stop talking, like her speaking about feminism at every turn is getting old. Can't she just be quiet and let everyone enjoy the fun? Like yeah talking about women's lack of personhood without a male figure in society, or how they can't go to university, or how sometimes they marry men who will only hurt them but need to for their status is sad to see, but THE ROMANCE-
#bridgerton#eloise bridgerton#like...this is the rhetoric i see a lot in this fandom especially on twitter and insta#like how are you going to call eloise a fake but then get mad at her when she calls out her society?#how are you going to wish that characters you love weren't put in these circumstances but then shit on the only one calling it out?#like is eloise flawed in her mindset? of course but 1.) she's young and learning 2.) making attempts to grow 3.) is the only one championing#for women's rights verbally and numerous times on screen#and while she is privileged it's shown many in her stsnding don't agree with her and turn against her when she speaks about feminism#so you can tell that it's not a favored topic of discussion#that within itself shows me that she's doing more than most around her#(and no just making a fortune for yourself as woman does not make you adherently feminist especially if you earned that wealth by tearing#down other women (no matter their status) and/or blackmailing them)#and to say eloise is fake but ignore how she risked so much to protect not only pen but geneieve is laughable

AH DAMN
A friend sent me a picture from a German article - it seems it inadvertently spoiled the Inquisition world state that we can "import" into Veilguard. Big spoiler under the cut.
It's just three major choices: the romanced companion, whether the Inquisition was disbanded or not, and whether the Inquisitor vowed to redeem or stop Solas. I'm (unpleasantly) surprised tbh 🫠
#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#da:tv spoilers#dragon age spoilers#i know epler said we're in nothern thedas so many things we did in the south don't have as much of an effect here but#i was expecting more jfjgkhkghglj#not even 'who drank from the well of sorrows'???#does it not matter or will they make morrigan be the one who drank no matter our choice in da:i?#i can't believe it has no weight in these circumstances

also okay. Leo voiding and Foolish going “that’s alright I’ll just wait. I can wait. I wait.” like yeah totem boy that’s all you ever do isn’t it. waiting loyally for Vegetta to come back, for his plans to find fruition, for islanders and federation workers alike to take him seriously, for Leo to return now, just like he waited for her before, keeping patience like none other. he’ll wait - that’s kinda his thing.
#every time foolish goes ‘I don’t really do lore’ and then does shit like this#yeah he’s doing the dramatic rp in lethal company as fuckin clone 99 or Luigi and Mario because his character is not vocal and emotional#it’s subtle like this because his character - as dramatic and silly and seemingly attention seeking as he is - is subtle#when it matters his reactions are quiet#usually - extenuating circumstances aside. we all watched the last purgatory stream#idk idjajfksjfjsjf but like. the fact he’s always the one who’s waiting. who will extend that patience. but he’s also the one left behind#this seems like a good time to bring up when he was left in the nether again kfjsjfjr yknow?#he waits. and he waits. and he waits. and he waits. and nobody takes him seriously in the meantime#he waits for Leo just like he’s been doing for the last few months. reassuring himself and bad she just voided. man#mcyt#qsmp#q!foolish#z speaks

a book with geralt 😃
a book with geralt without ciri 😐
a book with geralt without yennefer 😔
a book with geralt without dandelion 💀
#he is going to be going THROUGH IT#he is going to get up to some absolutely poetless behavior#and by that i’m expecting at least one suicide attempt from him#maybe it’s just me and my ‘suffered socially in middle school’ type of memories#but being alone is so soooo painful and going back to that geralt before his best friend and his wife and his child is going to be like#remember when geralt didn’t have much reason to live remember that time in his life#geralt as a near-middle age adult: oh my god this guy is so sad#geralt as a young adult: 😶💀 [speechless at the suffering]#unless dandelion does show up in this somehow but that would pose more logistical questions#imagine we see posada and they meet then and it’s revealed that edge of the world actually takes place with them like 19 and 26 or some#unexpected consideration like… reading eotw back i’m going to be like wait… how old WERE you two here how long ago WAS this#because characters unlike people are immortal because they are ideas#so when you imagine geralt and dandelion even ‘a long time ago’ i just imagine them slightly younger#whatever is done dandelion’s age will never make sense because count 38 and subtract 15. this is his age when ciri was born.#and yet he is hanging out with geralt here in his 30s because friendship is so eternal it slipped the author’s mind to change them#unlike in-universe netwitcher headcanons about jaskier being immortal i believe dandelion is immortal in a meta sense of his presence is so#necessary for geralt’s character that despite logic he must be there for him in the same form no matter the circumstances#geralt and dandelion meeting as young men: [each thinking to himself] ‘huh this guy is stupid and looks gay’#and then an epic best friendship was formed forever. i love you ���️#the elbow-high diaries

...I... I do not know what on earth compelled me to make this nor why, but I will not be taking criticism at this time
#Moon posting#Break Week is rough y'all#Please I just needed to shitpost a little let me have this#OP Meta#I know this chart is incomprehensible you just have to accept it for what it is#No I was kind of thinking to myself it was kind of funny how of the OG Shichibukai half of them are either dads or borderline dads#And I was like. Can I make a chart of this. Can I make a Dad Chart of the Warlords.#I don't know why I made this nor what to do with this information but. Sure. Let me yeet this out.#Kuma is the Dadliest Dad to Ever Dad in One Piece. Moria canonically adopted Perona when she was little. We love the OG Goth Dad#Crocodad is real TO ME but if nothing else he does have the energy 100%. It's just short of Canon Confirmation at this point#Mihawk is a weird uncle to me. He has no dad energy. This man does not fuck. But he'll look after some kids (Zoro & Perona). Sure.#Blackbeard is like the opposite of Mihawk. He has never looked after a child but I'm sure he has spawned a bastard or two or three#(He may be a father but he is not a Dad) (But canonically as far as we know BB has no kids yet so I'm putting him in Not A Dad)#Jinbei is the new Token Father of the Strawhats according to Oda and so I'm putting him where he is based on that. Also vibes#Law's where he is kind of for similar reasons as Jinbei. This boy is too young to be a dad but dealing with Luffy gave him a few grey hairs#Doflamingo did arguably watch over Buffalo and Baby 5 as those two grew up so he's The Most Qualified in that square#Weevil is baby#Hancock could have Dad Energy in the right circumstances. Like she has THE POTENTIAL#Buggy does not fuck#...Thinking about it I probably should've switched Hancock and Buggy's placements on the chart but whatever it doesn't matter

The thing that kills me about the Star Wars prequel trilogy and why I will die on my hill that my problem is not that Star Wars is a tragedy, its that its a badly written tragedy, is that Anakin Skywalker was at his closest to being a good Jedi when he was ten years old.
#im not an anakin apologist by any means because I get the point of his character and Im not pro or anti jedi#my only real opinion on all of it is similar to what I was saying about Peter and Tony and the MCU yesterday#its badly written. its EVERYONE being contorted into shapes that dont make a ton of sense in service to#getting characters to where they need to end up for certain things to occur#my opinion is not that Anakin is inherently bad or good or that the Jedi are inherently bad or good#its that their entire conflict was set in motion by forcing the Jedi to act in ways that felt massively OOC when they were#first interviewing him as a kid and like.....I ACCEPT that the Jedi are supposed to be for the most part kindhearted and empathetic and all#of that which is why its so noteworthy in my opinion that this does not match with how they were FORCIBLY portrayed in those early movies#in order to ENGINEER the idea that this kid in desperate need of support but already with a lot of good instincts and positive traits#came to the order of kindly supportive literal empaths and everything went downhill from there#like kindly supportive literal empaths would not in my opinion look at a kid trying his best to be brave & stoic in completely intimidating#circumstances and surroundings and be judgmental and fairly dismissive about it as though theyve never met a kid before let alone a#traumatized one and the fact that thats kinda what happened is in contrast to how a lot of pro anakin people frame that NOT proof#that the Jedi order are inherently bad its that in that key scene and multiple others#the Jedi order were BADLY WRITTEN in pursuit of one pre-determined outcome that mattered more to the script/Lucas than#being true to their core conceit and characterizations. and thats just one example out of dozens I could list and the same holds true for#anakin's side of things so thats why I always steer far away from SW discourse#because Im like the problem with the characters in terms of the most iconic arc is not really any of the characters so much#as the plots refusal to let them actually consistently BE characters rather than just fixed and contrived stepping stones on the way to#the desired endpoint

Curly Mouthwashing is that post that's like. Character who made undeniably the wrong decision but also I dunno if I could make a better one.
#nova transmits#mouthwashing#its like. ok im metagaming here but knowing what Jimmy does when he feels threatened? i would not let his ass know i knew!#never leave anya alone with him again yes. actually confront him? no he'd lay my ass out and kill someone. realistically everyone.#obviously curlys circumstances and reasons are different and that matters. apathy vs fear.#but im not gonna lie and pretend i would know what to do. the cryopods wouldnt even come to me honestly

honestly, when it comes to dsmp lore, especially involving techno later on, i can never fully take into account time gaps. like, unless the amount of time that passed is specifically referenced, it just feels kinda unfair, y'know?
#same with events that would've happened but had to happen 'off-screen'#i give a lot of leeway there because the IRL circumstances were so. well. heartbreaking.#loyal talks about stuff and things#sorry i was thinking about this because i'm working on a timeline for some au that does not matter slkdfjsdlkfj

sometimes i like to think that horror comes to dust's room late at night just to talk to phantom papyrus. no he doesn't wanna talk to dust. horror probably doesn't even CARE if dust's awake at the asscrack of dawn or rambling off to the hallucination too loudly this late at night because he just wants to talk to phantom papyrus
horror's not delusional enough to believe that phantom paps is actually real and his own papyrus like dust does but sometimes he really wants to,,,, so just for these short moments between them he wants to pretend that the hallucination is his papyrus. that he gets to talk to his own brother before everything went to shit and before he ruined his brother's life. yeah sure phantom paps kinda says some crazy stuff that horror's papyrus never would back then but so what?? dust's papyrus is the closest thing he's got and at least he doesn't have to deal with the guilt at even LOOKING at his brother's face (the sunken eyesockets,,,, the uneven teeth,,,,, yeah no) because there's nothing there. horror doesn't have to do anything but keep his back turned to dust and just talk to papyrus through him
they both keep their backs turned to eachother when they do this because neither of them can stand looking at eachother. dust especially because hearing horror sound so much like how he was before. horror sounds so lighthearted and relaxed and just,,,,, normal that it almost reminds dust of himself. maybe if he closed his eyes and tuned out his own voice he could just imagine the moment being a conversation between himself and paps back then before he had to kill him over and over. dust doesn't want to have to look back and see horror's mutilated skull and his permanently replaced eye. he doesn't want the fake scenario he's choosing to indulge in right now to be broken
and then i think they talk like that for a long time; because horror has a lot to say to paps about himself and what he regrets and dust has a lot of reminiscing to do on the good old days before he lost himself :3
#this one is a bit more SERIOUS than i expected.... no funny little triglycercule rambling today for some reason.......#i do really like this idea though. it seems like one of the only ways that horrordust would bond in a more canonical sense#no they don't fall asleep in bed with eachother after this. in fact horror doesn't even say BYE when he leaves#they just move on with their lives afterwards and pretend none of it happened#and when they need it most then they can drop their guards ever so slightly at 2:30 in the morning through a fake middleman#horror doesn't like being this vulnerable around dust but he knows DAMN well the other won't tell#dust has no reason to say a thing about their midnight chats. maybe he just doesn't like being vulnerable at all#and it's true that dust wouldnt tell anyone because tbh he gets to ask horror things he'd ask himself#maybe he'd lie a bit here and there about what paps said so he can ask something like do you regret it after all this time#just to see if horror feels the same way that he does even though they have different circumstances#to see if the most sans-like in his eyes of the 2(3) of them can understand what he feels and understands how it feels#horror regrets it too but he's here and he did what he did. dust almost likes that he has someone to relate to him tbh#sometimes he needs to be reminded that he should regret everything he did especially when he feels manic or just apathetic#he probably needs the reality check and if horror isn't the most grounded out of the 3 i dont know WHO is (low bar but he is arguably is)#ok time to turn this into the mtt! killer SO bashes them for these little midnight rendezvous#makes SO many remarks about how theyre really pathetic for practically roleplaying a conversation between sans and papyrus#SO many jokes about what the two probably get up to in there. so many jokes about how this is some weird kink probably#but in the end despite all the shit talking killer's never been part of one of these conversations#in fact he doesn't even go NEAR dust's room late at night due to this#he just cant he doesn't want to. because if he hears horror's voice being so lighthearted and joking#and dust saying words that sound so similar to what papyrus would say (maybe he's even imitating his voice)#it would upset him a LOT. or maybe not? either way killer avoids that area like the plague when horrordust chat#maybe he'd sit down by the outside of the door when he's FEELING. killer won't let himself believe in the delusion dust and horror have mad#but he can't stay for too long because then dust and horror start talking about regrets and their wrongdoings and now he can't listen any#but either way i trio-fied it and that's all that matters!!! this might actually be one of my FAVORITE ideas i've ever cone up with :333#killer sans#horror sans#dust sans#murder time trio#tricule hc

Would they moonmilk someone tho
weirdly enough, yes... and no. like. simultaneously. it very heavily depends on what context gets them involved with moon milk in the first place
#bc they're a post-heart's-desire mr cards#they are THE furthest possible thing from light fingers and moon milk and whatnot#it's not even on their radar. they don't even know it exists (at least in the way it does in LF)#they know what moon misers Do because they've been to the roof and they have their own pet miser#(its name is jerry. you can see it on their profile. it is absolutely infatuated with them.)#(they probably keep it on their airship as a mascot or something)#but like. they've never really been... Exposed to moon milk. they only know it in relation to misers using it to hunt#aka the normal function of it#in order to get a situation wherein they have the opportunity to forcibly moonmilk a guy#they'd have to either 1) get involved in the plot of light fingers#or 2) get a lovely tour of the orphanage courtesy of mr fires or something (which is. unlikely. though not as impossible as you'd think)#it's all a matter of how you Present it to the scoundrel i think. depending on circumstance#they'd either agree to do it once and then be horrified by the results + swear not to do it again#or they'd agree to do it just because fires Wants Them To and they just shove down their horror bc they want bat reputation points#or they see the Entire Deal�� beforehand and they refuse from the start#it all varies. tldr generally no* but with a suspicious and concerning asterisk on the end#i subscribe to the ''what could push this character into this situation'' model of thought and i delight in thinking along those lines 😌#ask#scoundrelventures

Thinking about the version of Mark that DID survive out in the wasteland for all those years (???) (post-Angstrom fight). Thinking about him being told he wouldn’t like who he had become. Thinking about Mark whispering “I thought you were stronger” at the bloody corpse crushed into the sand. Thinking about the hot sun and incredibly hot earth and unwavering isolation at such a critically vulnerable point. Mark, stranded and bloody, left to wonder if this was worth trying to protect his family, left to wonder if the violence in him is inevitable, as if it's some evil thing that's always been there, underneath his skin, just now waking. Left to wonder until he trips into spiraling, but no matter how loud he screams these questions into the sky, there is nothing but silence. A corpse for company. Thinking about the crushing weight of loneliness, and your own shocked mind. Thinking about being that way for years and years and years, somehow surviving. Only to become something a younger you wouldn’t "like". And what that looks like.
Thinking about the Mark that did get rescued, and being left to wonder how many times other versions of himself stumble into bad endings. How long until he becomes something he wouldn't like.
#love how mark has a bajillion bad endings let this boy REST#the inevitable of violence and will you always be you father's son?#thinking about the conditions in which the dog finally snaps and snarls aiming for the neck and not the hand the beats it#do we say it's always been a beast in waiting? does it matter when there's already blood on its teeth? does it matter it used to be kind?#when you can see nothing but the consequences. but are they have your actions or is it circumstance? does one soften the blow? does it-#-confirm what you already know? what you feared to be true?#istg mark is in a choose your adventure that is HEAVILY rigged and he's tearing across the pages to find that one good ending#prof yapper hours#invincible rotating in my mind#invincible s2#invincible season 2#mark grayson#chewing on the questions and angst and character exploration of this season like my life DEPENDS ON ITTT FAV SEASON FRRRRRRRRRRR#gnawing on the bars of my enclosureeeee with this showwwww#we bringing out the red string for this one boys!!! we bringing out the poetry on the identity of self and violence!!!!

more things that tick me off about dr3… the flanderization of komaeda’s expressions. people forget how like… genuinely expressive he is. yes he smiles a lot but… okay— look—
dr3 basically limits him to :) or :o MOST of the time. even when facing junko— and knowing she’s an enemy:
i could’ve gotten more images but i’m too lazy to actually watch the anime in full again. but anyway… they made him that one stereotype where he’s calm and cheerful no matter what happens — rarely having extreme reactions. he honestly acts more like my other boy itsuki in that sense. but like… komaeda isn’t ever truly calm and collected. they baby boy-ified him. government assigned little guy.
and like… you look at the game and it’s just
he is SO expressive!!! yeah he’s very :) :D but there’s so much you can get from his faces. and he can get genuinely angry/pissed/scared/anxious/condescending/etc. people gotta recognize this more i feel
#LET HIM GET PISSY#HE ISNT JUST YOUR TYPICAL SMILELY ANIME BOY WHO IS CALM AND CHEERY NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCE#yes!!! he doesn’t react appropriately to a lot of things!!#yes!! he can be cheery in the face of danger/tragedy#but he has more feelings????#he DOES react to things???? in other ways?????#😞😞😞😞#every day my boy gets done dirty#♡₊˚ 🍀・₊✧ » ooc : post ─ 𝘏𝘖𝘓𝘋𝘌𝘙 𝘖𝘍 𝘒𝘖𝘔𝘈𝘌𝘋𝘈 𝘏𝘖𝘛 𝘛𝘈𝘒𝘌𝘚. ❞

slightly hot take (?) but personally i felt the reactions in ep 17 were all in-character and justified... don't have the time to get into it, but it boils down to the fact that knowing something logically =/= knowing it emotionally
#star stumbles#fangs of fortune#大梦归离#cdrama#people saying zhuo yichen was self-righteous when i really thought his speech to zhu yan was perfect#because it's basically saying that 'death is easy for you' and also acknowledging that him dying now would make ying zhao's sacrifice in va#*vain#like we all fought to save you so you have to live for another month regardless#and honestly 100% understand zhu yan too like he has no say in the matter and his existence is truly miserable (which zhuo yichen fully#recognizes let's be clear)#but i think it all comes down to the weapon and intention#like all weapons are made intentionless almost#in as much as a weapon can be. since weapons are made to destroy and go against nature even in the most small ways (cutting things#killing / protection / defense etc)#but even though the weapon must be wielded by someone to do harm#even though it is intentionless on it's own. that doesn't mean that the sight of the weapon does not inspire fear or hatred in the hearts o#those hurt by it#innocence or not#wen xiao and zhuo yichen both witnessed the horrible deaths of their loved ones...knowing that zhu yan wasn't the “true” killer doesn't#absolve him of the fact that malicious energy in his body killed them. like they're allowed their slightly emotional reactions to seeing hi#like that again & wen xiao doubly for finding out the real circumstances#i have no doubt she'll grow and forgive him to an extent but she's allowed to have her state of no forgiveness but also no hatred#ep 17
