#His lil' pose...#bit of a side-tangent and probably not an Actual Intentional thing#but he's braced for a fight here#In my little over-analysis world#it shows how on-guard he is#and how being treated like an object (probably sub-consciously) puts him into heightened awareness#like#his knees are bent just the amount they need to be for him to spring into action#It's kind of like 'en guard' in fencing?#or part way to it#like he could snap to it in an instant if need be#his feet are even angled that way#yet another thing I eventually need to make an Actual Post on#jshk#minamoto teru#teru minamoto#tbhk#THAT ENDS CHAPTER ONE THANK FUCK

Yāknow, I feel like we donāt give the writers enough credit when it comes to Soren
So often when a character is the ācomic reliefā, they start off with dynamic personalities and then lose them as the season go on (looking at you Cat Valentine and Steve Palchuk), but not Soren
No, Soren somehow manages to jump between being comic relief and genuinely serious and caring seamlessly. And itās all the same character, too! He doesnāt feel like heās switching personalities theyāre just other facets of who he is and itās amazing!!!
#tdp#tdp soren#soren#the dragon prince#dragon prince#literally the creators and writers of this show are crazy#because I swear he jumps from being stupid to smart in an instant because it consistent in who he is#like he knows a lot about being a guard and dealing with hard emotions but when it comes to more technical things that heās not interested#in heās clueless#he could probably give hour long lectures about different work out techniques#and lead groups in emotional conversation#but the moment you ask him how taxes work heās suddenly head empty brain smooth#and I love that for him

Leo being put into a situation where there is absolutely no fighting, just verbal manipulation and perception games, would be amazing to witness. We see a lot in the series how good he is at subterfuge and how he uses his perception to manipulate to great effect, so itād be so cool to really see it put to the test even more.
Manipulation is one of the most effective tactical strategies of all time, so just imagine Leo putting this skillset of his to the full test. Imagine the boys slowly get up to busting bigger and more powerful criminals, including those with networks of crime under their belt, and a simple fight isnāt enough to take them down. For criminals like this, Leoās skills in subterfuge would be deadly.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#me back to talking about Leoās incredibly high affinity for subterfuge#genuinely think itās one of if not his best and most honed skill#AND ITāS A VITAL NINJA SKILL#above fighting battle tactics and the like#itās verbal blindspots#Sun Tzuās The Art of War literally states that āthe greatest victory is won without battleāā#and idk I think Leo would be so good at this and we see him do it in the show quite a bit but not to the amount I yearn for#but yeah like just think Leo getting sent in and his bros standing guard#of course he wouldnāt be the ONLY one involved but 100% heād be the main player#man idk I just really really love when their specific skill sets that ARENT the fighting ones are used itās so interesting to me#like we already know Leo can easily take in a whole roomās worth of people and know exactly how to avoid them all#we know he can manipulate manipulators into his schemes#we know heās good at improv which is essential to the games of speech high end criminals like to play#it would be SO INTERESTING#OKAY HEAR ME OUT-#heās asked by Big Mama to join her at a criminal ball of sorts#she needs to regain power and he needs to take down big name criminals#thus a deal#no but really itās so cool seeing Leo specifically do his best tactics through thinking like his enemy and predicting how theyād act

itās canon to me that anakin skywalker and marshall commander fox are archnemeses of a shakespearean nature to eachother
why? well, foxā life is a tragedy of galactic proportions. heās a slave at best and straight up non-sentient property at worst, caught at the crossroads of being the face of the republicās most corrupt establishment to his brothers who resent him for being forced to bear an authority he has no actual control over, and being the closest and easiest target for that very authorityās ire. made to enforce the rigged and deeply unjust laws against his own oppressed peoples, and no one understands better than fox how much coruscant truly despises them. the chancellor at the heart of it all, and anakin, the favored pupil - taken in by the flattery and empty promises like all the rest of them, the jedi most intimately connected to the senate who yet cares so little to know the clones who shed their blood in it every day that he never sees beyond his own very nose. no one asks the guard what they think, and fox despises them all for it, but the jedi who play at caring more than anything. itās an impersonal, distanced dislike for the most part, but with skywalker it burns all the brighter for how often fox sees him walk the halls of the senate and never think to ask.
also fox cut anakin off in traffic once and he never forgave him for it
#commander fox#to be clear this is neither an anakin nor jedi hatepost#i just think the dynamic of genuine deeprooted existential hate vs petty fury that burns with the power of a thousand suns is so funny#also i love this flavor of hc about the guard: they live in a lovecraftian horror show which everyone else perceives as like the office#like imagine youāre watching michael scott shenanigans but to him thereās blood oozing out of the walls and formless shadows whispering in a#language that makes his eyeballs burn and sizzle like acid#i firmly believe fox to be extremely unimpressed with most jedi on principle but not in a like hateful way more like a disillusioned way#fox does not believe in clone rights because fox has lived on this hellhole for three years and knows how these fuckers work#bail organa is one of the very few people he likes on a personal level but any talk of clone rights bills just make him laugh#āhave you met your colleagues sir? because i haveā#āand weāll all be throwing birthday parties in sith hell by the time they agree to that on moral principleā#āor well you will be throwing tea parties in sith hell iām not sentient so no afterlifeā#i also believe anakin and fox would be fast friends if they ever actually spoke#to the detriment and danger of everyone around them to be clear

"I was gonna say you're like a son to me.. but you're more than that."
"It ain't that complicated!"
How quickly that shoulder pat of comfort turned into a condescending one.
#he makes me feel so emo#this life was never meant for you but your fate was forced#the way dutch (and hosea) talks to arthur like he's stupid will never sit right with me#like they've been by his side over 20 years they KNOW he isn't stupid because if he was he would have been gone a long time ago#not only is arthur incredibly emotionally smart but he's a trained conman vault breaker gunslinger horse rider you name it#the fact that his own adoptive parents break him down like that hurts#it's a manipulation tactic on dutch's end - break your victims self esteem to make them chase your praise and approval#hosea I believe has just gone along with that kind of attitude but in a different way he just likes to jest lightheartedly#arthur doesn't see the difference though and it's understandable but he takes it to heart#the worst part is that hosea sees through his tough guy act and has called arthur out on it#his act is a defence mechanism to protect himself from being too vulnerable - in arthur's mind#and it isn't a sudden thing it's very likely something that has built over the years given the life he has lived#and hosea notices he knows this#but they still jab at arthur#oh it hurts#is he your son dutch? or is he your guard dog? your personal workhorse?#playing through the second time is opening my eyes more and more#rdr2#red dead redemption 2#mick squeaks#mick rants#mick gifs#arthur morgan#dutch van der linde#liveblogging#you guys gotta understand - arthur seeks and longs for dutch's approval he'll never say it but it's the key motive behind his loyalty#and arthur *rejects* dutch's comfort#he doesn't *want* dutch to pat him on the shoulder because he knows dutch is digging them an even deeper hole#he doesn't want that touch he craves#it's so insanely monumental for such a small scene because it shows us how arthur feels without telling us

AU where Obi-wan is Can Drallig's illegitimate son except of course everyone knows and no one cares except for qui-gon of course.
based on this post by @twinterrors29
#Star Wars#cin drallig#obi wan kenobi#my art#id in alt#its important to me that Cin is like 2.10m and obi wan 1.80m still#yoda is so happy to have another grandchild#cin's age is unknown but the actors are just 12 years apart so im thinking obi wan was probably born when cin was still in his twenties#cin steals obi-wan and feemor from qui-gon#feemor is a guard or a librarian and cin adopts him#anakin is like. who's that guy and obi wan panics bc how do you explain to your sort of child that this is#the guy who brought you to the temple but also you share a blood type and home planet and when he was a child people would call cin his dad#but you can't exactly ASK the guy Are You My Father#so he just kind of skirts around the topic for twentyfive years#cin. to anakin: Im his father but dont tell anyone?#obi wan: ...at least now that is answered#anakin: why is your dad allowed to live here but my mom has to be a slave?#obi & cin plus every jedi in the vicinity: EXCUSE ME#anakin: yeah qui-gon said-#cin: what's with qui-gon jinn hurting my kids??#feemor and obi-wan. : Your Kids??#anakin: grandpa!!!!#cin: now I know why yoda wasn't mad when I showed up with obi at 27 yrs old this kid is adorable

I love the fact that the Silvermane Guards are essentially just a very devoted "We Love Gepard Landau" fanclub, and I desperately need for all of them to get into ship wars about it behind their Captain's back. The soldiers are all split into several factions:
Some of them ship him with Sampo š”š£ (enemies to lovers/hateship enjoyers; this does not necessarily mean they like Sampo- in fact it's more like most of them want to sic their Captain on him skzjsmdm)
Some of them ship him with Bronya šš” (knight and princess trope enjoyers and also a sorta-kinda "that is our mom and dad" type of deal; this faction gets riled up and ridiculously hypes Gepard up to Bronya every time she comes down to the frontlines mskdkxmd)
Some of them ship him with the trailblazer š”š« (the smallest and newest faction, but steadily gaining!)
Some of them ship him with Pela āš” (workplace romance enjoyers; Gepard once charged out into the Fragmentum alone to save Pela from an expedition gone horribly wrong, and when this faction saw Gepard carrying Pela back princess style they threw a whole party)
Some of them ship him with Dunn š”š” (also workplace romance; Dunn is very flattered by this because yeah wrong Landau, but wow, the troops really think he's good enough to woo the Captain, what an honor)
And some of them ship themselves with the Captain š”ā¤ (yumejoshi enjoyers; this faction throws a massive group effort every Valentine's Day and are also all very supportive of each other)
The final faction is an odd one, because they're defined not by who they ship their beloved Captain Gepard with, but rather by who they don't ship him with. Their name is generally shortened to the A.B.S. Group- Anybody BUT Sampo š«š£ DKSZJJSMSOZ
#honkai star rail#gepard landau#hsr gepard#gepo#sampard#bronpard#gepela#gepdunn#sampo koski#bronya rand#pelageya sergeyevna#dunn#I'm so happy Hoyo gave us TWO knight and princess ships with bronseele and bronpard. two cakes!!#and I actually do love bronpard but I think it'd be hilarious if that faction dissolved the second they saw bronseele together nskzjskdk#same with the gepela faction and pelynx haha#every time Bronya comes down to the frontlines she tends to gravitate towards Gepard and the bronpard faction kicks into high gear skzjkske#they ask Gepard to show them proper form with a weapon or to tell some of his exploits. anything to make him look cool in front of Bronya.#'Madame Supreme Guardian we heard Captain Gepard took down a direwolf THIS big-' XD#I don't even ship Gepard and Dunn but I do think it's really sweet how Gepard talks about him-#-and how grateful he is that the trailblazer didn't seriously injure him during the main quest.#I think that if they had then Gepard would not be NEARLY as kind or forgiving of them. Dunn is one of his. he's protective of all of his me#the gepo/sampard and ABS group are the ones most at war with each other#every time Gepard gets the soldiers to split into teams it gets vicious XD#like I need some red vs blue shenanigans with the Guards you feel me. i need them to play capture the flag and get way too into it amsjmsks#pela has taken writing commissions for every ship under disguise- including gepela so she wouldn't seem suspicious#someone once claimed she wrote Pela way ooc and demanded a refund at the last second and Pela nearly strangled them HSKKZSNKSKD#hsr

Dc x dp idea 41
When amity park get yoinked to the infinite realm JLD is aware. By the time they get there to investigate itās back.
All of them can feel the ghost king. Leading them to believe that the king is trying to claim the earth for himself. They believe after his time being sealed he plans to in thrall all humans. The king must be in need of new soldiers.
Which is a reasonable conclusion if pariah was still king.
Meanwhile Danny is trying to study for his finals.
#dc x dp#danny fenton#dp x dc#danny phantom#dp dc crossover#dp x dc crossover#dp x dc prompt#ghost king danny#jld#they assume the worst#start preparing spells#have a member on gaurd in amity#Danny just watching the guy in the trench coat trying to figure out who he is#why does he always get on guard when he is near Danny#the fact ghost are constantly attacking the town does no favors#now when phantom shows up itās another problem#the JLD was all ready to seal up pariah#then they see teen rage phantom#and yea they canāt judge a ghost age based on how he looks#but they can sense the incomplete core#he feels like a baby ghost#how is the new king a baby#why is the king on earth#it just opens up so many questions

there is a difference between being born to a throne, maliciously vying for a throne, stealing a throne, and having a throne thrust upon you when you are already in the midst of an identity crisis. And I fear Loki's place in the line of succession has people unable to differentiate between any of these
#you can't really argue he planned the extent of Thor's downfall#that was all Odin#Loki didn't force Thor to invade Jotunheim he isn't even the one who gave Thor the idea -- Thor did that all on his own!#that he was doing waswasa @ thor didn't help but wasn't really crime worthy on its own#Thor himself took time convincing the other warriors to be okay with the trip despite the treason and danger involved#like. what. Thor can't differentiate good advice from bad and is emotionally volatile and reckless and that's Loki's fault?#THOR was the one who got them past Heimdall too#the entire ordeal inadvertently showed off the favouritism Thor was receiving in comparison to Loki#even though Loki was the one supposedly so easily influencing Thor to such an extent#call Thor a puppet the way he--wait. no. that sounds weird. uhhhhh#you get the point#people will claim Loki was all up in there rearranging Thor's mental processes to cause his downfall#when really it was Loki doing the bare minimum instigation and watching things only devolve from there#because Thor WAS reckless and immature ?? and he WAS quick to anger and enjoyed exerting his power with violence ??#Loki didn't STEAL THE THRONE FROM THOR he literally just is implied to undermine the coronation#that's not even confirmed but we assume it's true that he let the frost giants in near the casket etc.#Loki has his own actual crimes that he did against Thor and hugging his bro's arm and saying 'you're soooooo strong and correct' was not on#even if you manage to argue Loki was cheering Thor on for the invasion (he wasn't) it was clearly to dob Thor in with Odin#which he did when he had some guard inform Odin#that Odin's chosen punishment was for Thor's disobedience aside stop blaming Loki for the damage ODIN inflicted on him#focus on Loki making up lies to Thor about how Odin died instead like at least Loki DID SOMETHING for that#you can even ascribe as evil a motive as you want there bc Loki was slipping fr#twirling his hair and telling Thor he's smarter about the realm's safety than the king was on the normal scale#you want to talk morals go look at how eager Thor was to invade mass destroy and massacre in the other realm#and expected Odin to 'finish them off! together!' bc he was power high on whatever bloodlust pheromones battle apparently imitates for him#sigh. this is why you can't have nice things Thor. no Loki you're barely any better. sit down. have a cookie.

reblogs are off but i wanted this post on my blog
#like i get that next to the nrothern water tribe the fire nation looks a lot more progressive#but i get so miffed when people write the fire nation as being completely devoid of sexism#buddy just count the women in the war room#it might not be explicitly talked about but that doesn't mean they're free of misogyny#atla#azula#mai#ty lee#ALSO i know he's everyone's pathetic little meow meow but zuko makes some sexist remarks throughout the show#he learned that from somewhere#and you know how long it takes to see a confirmed fire nation woman (with linesl in the show#azula. she is the first fire nation woman we see. at the end of s1.#you could argue that the soldiers are women but the reality is the show didnt make a point to show the fire nation military as mixed gender#the only speaking guards you hear have male voices#like yall a lot of us have experience living in a society that's pretty progressive but still has glaring misogyny#why are we so scared of writing that into the show#why are we so mystified by the idea of society where women are technically allowed wherever but many fields are dominated by men regardless#buddy we live in that

Soren deserves to have a little breakdown in season 7. As a treat.
#Let him be angry#let him be sad#the best moments in season 6 were when he got to yell at his father#i think he's been holding his emotions close to himself for a while#we saw so in āchanging of the guardā when Corvus mentions how happy he always tries to be#and we saw it when he talked to Ezran then closed the door and his face immediately dropped#like this man has terminal comedy as a tool to hide your feelings disease#given everything that happens#in season 6#he deserves to scream into the void about how he feels#he deserves to bite something really hard like a pillow or something#he deserves to throw a really big rock into the lake#he deserves a kiss to make it better from Corvus#WHAT WHO ADDED THAT TAG TO THIS POST?!?!?!#they are a package deal in my posts now sorry#soren tdp#the dragon prince#almost got this far without tagging the actual character or show#this post would have just been me screaming to the void lmao#he deserves (read: needs) a really big hug

sleep deprived dust can't recognize what's dream and what's real when he goes in and out of consciousness so i think dust is allowed to be incredibly reckless when he's awake but thinks he's in a dream. he will kill whoever passes by him (or attempt to. for him it's an instict to shoot bones anyways.) he will drink 4 bottles of alcohol just because he thinks its just a lucid dream. have incredibly loud conversations with phantom paps because he's asleep so nobody will hear him talk. or just have loud ass breakdowns because again he thinks he's asleep!!! nobody's gonna know what he gets up to in his dreams. and until someone (probably phantom paps) tells him that he's not asleep and this is reality he won't realize until he's done something really reckless
horror is seconds away from exploding dust's skull open with his magic while dust is trying to strangle him and FINALLY phantom paps tells him he's awake and dust snaps out of it. killer is walking around the house with bones sticking out of him like pins on a sewing pattern (casually too. another day in the life for him) and he just asks dust what that was about. dust just gets off of horror and shrugs his shoulders with an idk. and then walks away. this is the 6th time its happened this month
#horror needs to find a way for him to get back at dust for almost killing him#horror IMMEDIATELY booby traps dust's room's door with several fatal traps. and then dust just teleports away to dodge them#horrors incredibly cool bone manipulation power is incredibly underrated. neither dust nor killer can do what he does#when i say people underestimate just how powerful horror is i mean this#he has MANY shows of power where he summons a shitton of bones. or when he's clever and tricky#using tiny bones so his karma can hit the guards more and kill them faster??? GENIUS#granted kist could definitely think of something like that but that doesn't mean horror's a coughing baby#ok back to my original post. i came up with this after doing my little dusttale translation thing#dust is such a fucking asshole during it all istg and i whooped and cheered every time he was a fucking dick#when he doesn't know what to do when in doubt destroy everything you see. what a guy#he'd definitely be a lot smarter than that in real situations but again#he came up with that strategy while he was under the impression that he was in a dream#so i do think this little prick can be quite an unrestrained destructive force when he doesn't know whats real or not#can i just talk more about translated dust because GODDDD he was SO FUCKING COOL IN MAD TIME SERIES I SWEAR#when he plucked floweys petals off him one by one???? and then berated him??? and the nursing home comment??????? fuck i lov him#can you please unspill the spilled blod??? sick ass line. i think he knew from the start he was gonna betray flowey in that one#god i love canon dust so much he's such a sadistic shit. and he likes it. what a freak. HE LIKES IT#the only person he outwardly expressed regret about killing was papyrus. you'd think he'd care more about everyone else but NOPE#or maybe he did in the earlier runs. still doesn't hide from the fact that he was cruel to everyone else. because thats dusttale 4 you#youre on death row and theyve sentenced you to endless torture and then the mtt pulls up#listen man if i were on death row and they were my torturers id let them do whatever. my babies can get back at me for making them suffer#canon horrordust my beloved i love canon horror and dust#idk if killer in this is like totally canon but idc. it's such a funny idea to make him unbothered when he's injured its hilarious#horror and dust's personal little punching bag āØāØ#killer sans#dust sans#horror sans#murder time trio#utmv#tricule hc

Me watching the prequel movies: "Padme's alright, but she's kind of boring and I don't care for her that much."
Me watching Clone Wars: "Padme Amidala could dropkick me, step on my neck, and spit in my face, and I would thank her. She is so cool and smart and I want to be her and also maybe be her assistant. She's a savvy politician who believes in peace but is not afraid to shoot a bitch if needed. Revenge of the Sith Anakin doesn't deserve her."
#star wars#star wars prequels#star wars the clone wars#sw tcw#padme amidala#sw prequels#sw padme#literally did not give a shit about her while watching the movies#then i watched the show and oh my god she is amazing#every time there was a padme episode i absolutely loved it and had an amazing time#actual girlboss#also now i can actually understand why she was so loyal to anakin even when he became a trainwreck#their relationship was imperfect but actually really sweet and i saw the chemistry#they felt like a power couple sometimes and really balanced each other out#and while anakin always had some aggressive tendencies#i understand how padme would be caught off guard and still love him/think she can change him#she's seen him at some of his low points and he bounced back so how is this different and why is he acting different?#it's actually really sad#i didn't care when she died while watching the prequels#but when i watched the show i'd suddenly feel really upset because i'd remember what's going to eventually happen to her#this strong and amazing woman would die of grief while giving birth after her husband betrayed her and that was heartbreaking#and then years later her planet would be destroyed by that very husband she had once loved so dearly#god damn it now i'm sad
