Pspspsp it's your secret santa, do you have a preference between edwin or lan fan being the baddie that she is? 👀

Ooooooooo I don't! I love both equally so much. Whichever you're more comfy with/have ideas for (but hmm lets say baddie lan fan vs Disgusting edwin fluff, maybe some pre-promise day mutual pining, if you want ideas?)

Akashi on the mind (because who the fuck else lives in my head rent free) and I was just thinking about he's not only good at everything but he also makes everything look easy and that's why people feel comfortable putting so much faith in him/putting him on a pedestal. Especially because Akashi makes it so that he appears to have no weak spots when that could not be farther from the truth. It's all just an image to hide the fact that he's not perfect. But you know what? I think, for the sake of humanizing him, the rest of the KNB cast needs to see Akashi do something and struggle while doing it.

People need to be able to look at his face and feel like they can physically hear the gears turning in his head. I need him to attempt something and then everyone watches him space out for an extended period of time while he figures out how the fuck he's gonna actually do the thing. Let him be clumsy as he finds his way. Let him have a trial-and-error process. Let him be successful at doing something while still having the privilege of not getting it right the first time. LET HIM NOT BE PERFECT.

Thr thing abt me is that I want to know exactly how psychiatric medications work. I don't want the simplified version. Dont give me the "I'm talking to the public" answers. I want the specific mechanisms and how exactly it causes its side effects.

Missing your veil inspired model Bernard au if you have any more ideas for it please share would love to hear them 🙏🏻🙏🏻

god i havent thought about this au in sooo long but i do have some hc!! (og veil!au posts here and here)

so after the Billboard Incident, tim becomes, like, obsessed, with bear and he doesn't realize it's bernard until he's on like a 2am deep dive and finds out that "bear" is just bernard's modeling name and his real name is bernard dowd

and tim's a little confused bc what the hell is bear doing modeling??? back when then were in high school, bear used to talk all the time about cooking

but also, tim's famous!!! bear's famous!!! why did he never reach out?

and then one day, tim's doing like a photoshoot to announce the new wayne collab with some up and coming modeling house and the director of the photoshoot says that he'll be working with another model

cool, whatever, at least he gets to work with a pro right? and the door opens and out comes bear with his hair artfully tousled and lips painted a pretty pink and he's wearing clothes that show off his broad shoulders and oh my god, the fucking boner is back

and as he discreetly tries to hide it, he opens his mouth to greet bear except, bear's eyes go stone cold and the grip on his coffee cup gets tighter

"what the hell is this?" bear says coldly and then he turns around to talk to his manager

"you said i wouldn't have to work with him. in fact, it was the one thing you promised me, when i signed that contract."

tim sinks back into seat stunned as bear's manager drags him off for a quick conversation. when bear comes back the shoot goes off without a hitch but bear says nothing but the bare minimum to him the whole time

tim pulls bear's manager aside to talk privately before the shoot ends

"did i do something wrong?" / "mister drake, you know i can't tell you what my client has told me in private and even if i could, i still wouldn't"

"i havent seen him since high school. i just wish i knew what he was mad about."

"mister drake, more than bernard being my most valuable client, he is also my friend. i can't and i won't tell you the reason but, you look like a good guy. and in all honesty, i think you'd be good for him. so i'll leave you with a hint: maybe it's not about what you did do, and more about what you didn't do."

"if you're his friend, why're you helping me?"

"bear's good now, he'll be great when he can move on from whatever's stopping him. i think it's you. this hurt has been festering for almost a decade and if we're being brutally honest, it's your fault. so you fix it, so that my bernard can be up there with the greats."

bear's manager turns to leave and right before he exits the door he looks back and says, "and if all else fails mister drake, just remember that apologies are usually a good place to start."

Atla live action 😐

I'm re-watching Lego: Nexo Knights

And, they really did Jestro dirty.

They had him perform after Merlok(and I know Merlok set up a 'surprise attack' to test the Knights and show off a little but still man)

I to would be a nervous wreck if I had to perform after a literal sorcerer.

Jestro, is clearly hesitant about using the Book of Monsters(BoM), but because his self-esteem is so low, he's lured into it.

And whenever we see his story play out, the guys just, so sad, it's clear he isn't totally convinced this is what he wants, being evil, but the BoM picks at his insecurities, and words things on such a way Jestro just goes with it.

Like straight up, the BoM and Jestro have a toxic relationship, and it's all at Jestros' expense.

And don't get me started on his relationship with Clay, iwbzjsjsj

I love them

Clay just never giving up on his friend and always giving him the benefit of the doubt. And Jestro's main concern when the BoM was first trying convince him to summon a monster was Clay.

I can't, my sweet, sweet, boiz

Jestro deserves all the kindness and I could never hate him.

Same with Clay, Clay is the Dad/Mom friend we all need.

in a genuine hunger games type setting, who do you think would actually come out on top? this is weighing in their own loyalty, their susceptibility to betrayal, pvp skills, trap skills, strats, ruthlessness, all that

i'm only putting in actual contenders here for the sake of a small poll

really waiting on a "what if a Children's Media were... A Little Fucked UP!" story that doesnt disappoint

[tankgotstuckinthecircusgate]

late Carlo and Moretti (during vinci-moretti war) are like Luca and Clemente to me. Moretti will never raise his hand on Carlo but! will he drive him into guilt in ways that are not direct? insult him in passing? convince Carlo that he's doing everything wrong, when in fact it's the opposite? of course such a painful kick to Carlo's ego, it's unfair, he doesn't deserve it. and it's not a father-son relationship, it's a professional relationship and he can't say anything back & defense himself in any way maybe Moretti's more favorable to Eddie in this period because he's more blindly loyal and Carlo feels he's about to explode

Been keeping Ingjard with me while I (1) try and develop her and (2) hunt down dragon priests (bc I want to do that this time before going to Solstheim) and I have in fact been having thoughts. Some new, some just expanded upon, idk I think the whole "exploring Nordic history with the Nord" thing is working.

But anyway, the first and main thing you really notice about her is that she's, well, fucking rude. Her voice type is [FemaleCondescending] and it is exactly what it says on the tin. She's snappy, rude, derisive, combative and too competitive, etc etc. And tbh, I don't blame her. There's a ton of dialogue from Nord women about being seen as less than Nord men, reduced to being their wife/sister/whatever instead of, well, them. Olfina in Whiterun has the challenging passing dialogue line "what's the matter? Can't stand the sight of a strong nord woman?" that's stuck with me since the first time I walked past her. Ingjard takes pride in being a warrior and, well, I'm sure no one made it easy for her. "Being one of the guys" was probably a large goal just because maybe then they MIGHT see her as an equal. Might. And that in itself is one hell of a battle considering, well, what I've lined up. I'd be a raging asshole too if I had to fight just for the chance to.... Well, fight. She expects people to look down on her and expect her to "prove" herself. By being a dick right off the bat she's going ahead and skipping past the "weak/subservient woman/warrior cosplayer" expectation that she thinks she has to fight from everyone 24/7, and with a lifetime of suppressed anger, it comes easily.

Semi related, she's also WEIRDLY hostile when you heal her. Like incredibly. Ingjard if I just stood there and let a dragon keep biting me while I whacked it with a hammer and I'm clinging to life and my companion heals me, my first response would NOT be condescension. And yet. The woman that you are. (Also YES that was what happened the first time I triggered the dialogue line. Just stood there like a fucking madman.) Like I get it, she's a scrapper, she has a potentially fatal amount of pride, she's too stubborn to ask for help, but to be nearly dead and have your immediate response upon being healed be "I suppose you think you're better than me because you can do that"? Girl, what the fuck. What mage hurt you. And idk I'd been toying with the idea of her having a sibling (why are all the kids in Skyrim single children except for like. Two pairs) and considering how much she has to struggle to have anyone respect her, much less see potential in her, wouldn't it absolutely fucking suck to have a slightly younger male sibling who (1) not only doesn't have to go through that but (2) IMMEDIATELY gains EXTRA respect and favor because he can. Cast spells. You're young and growing and struggling to help around the house and the hard work is acknowledged and appreciated and then some genius, magic brat comes along and suddenly, well, you don't exist. He's faster and more efficient and more useful and you're quickly losing the one place you had for yourself that you DIDN'T have to carve out with bloody nails. And yeah. They all think he's better than her because he can do that.

Unrelated but anyway considering when you ask her why she joined the Dawnguard her response is "something bad happens, word spreads. More bad things happen, people worry. The more they worry, the more they talk about it" that's kinda WILD. She follows this up with "I've been hearing rumors for a bit now. I was glad to find out not only the bad rumors were true" and like. WOW! What a tiny little gem we've been handed for characterization. Because what Ingjard actually just said is "bad things happen, people talk. Things keep happening and they keep talking. I'm not talking, I'm doing something about it." You love to see it! Anyway this is why I feel like she could have been a mercenary for a while before joining the Dawnguard, because she doesn't sit around and WORRY, she gets shit DONE. Plus the rough and wretched vibes suit her, ya know. Can't quit won't quit, gotta carve a place out for yourself.

Anyway (x3), a couple more headcanons/ideas that are either half formed in the aether without solid backing or just. Small things:

(1) Undercut Ingjard, because again I saw undercut Lae'zel fanart and something clicked into place (Ingjard having long hair has always been odd to me for some reason. Like it didn't feel like it suited her. This spices it up at least)

(2) she has a whale tattoo, because like every other Nord warrior, she hopes to cross the whale bone bridge when she dies. Idk where it's at, don't ask me. Probably somewhere along her spine (neck/shoulder area maybe?)

(3) #1 brawler on the team and she insists that if you're reliant on your weapon, you're a loser. Refuses to go easy on anyone when sparring/teaching them to brawl because "if it doesn't hurt, what's the point? You'll learn faster not to let me punch you in the face again, won't you."

(4) Gets physical when she's feeling too much or has too much going on. The exertion is familiar and whatever task she's doing (training, gathering firewood, etc) is something she has a lot of control over and familiarity with. Productive, and this paradoxically lends itself to her having a ton of problems, but also having an incredibly level head due to all the work that needs to get done. The head just isn't always on right.

(5) Tall. She's like 6'2" because I said so. Ingjard 🤝 Gunmar "big brute of a Nord"
