i was trying to figure out how to make tucker be less shitty in a way that would work in canon without making it sound like a Very Special Episode about it and settled on the answer that he’s genuinely trying to improve but just. really dumb about it. like so:

tucker: im sorry, kai, i guess what i said to you was… misogyny?

kai: yeah… you know, you should talk to my hr rep. she’s the one who taught me i shouldn’t take my shirt off in front of my employees

tucker: what? why?

kai: apparently having my tits out makes people “uncomfortable”

tucker: who would be uncomfortable about your tits? they’re awesome!

kai: i know, right! but i don’t wanna make anyone uncomfy, so these puppies stay in their cages

tucker: well i don’t wanna make anyone uncomfy either… you know, if you were a dude i bet people wouldn’t care if you took your shirt off— oh my god. thats misogyny!

later

tucker: wash, guess what! i learned what misogyny is

wash: …what?

tucker: well, yknow, like, i knew what it was but did you know that, like, it’s still an issue that affects women in real life?

wash: ……………y. yes.

tucker: i know! crazy right? hey, carolina!

camera pans to carolina, who was standing right there the whole time

tucker: it sucks that you can’t take your shirt off in public. i think you should be able to take off your shirt AND not have guys make any comments about your tits, even if they’re awesome.

wash: do you want me to punch him or do you want to do it yourself

carolina: no, no, i… think this is actually an improvement

I'll probably make something in higher quality/effort later

steve and bucky each meet tony separately but they both feel that immediate attraction the second their eyes meet tony’s. they just know, at once, that they’d do anything to get to keep tony.

unknowingly, they start competing for tony’s affections. by being the polar opposite of themselves.

steve knows he’s awkward and shy when he meets someone he likes, so he thinks, “what would bucky do?” and pulls out the most ridiculous pickup line he could think of as he approaches tony in the grocery store. he has no hope of it working, but somehow bucky always manages to charm his way into someone’s heart no matter how cringeworthy the lines he uses are. so steve decides as long as he seems confident enough, maybe it would work.

tony makes fun of steve for being cheesy immediately, but he’s smiling and he still ends up giving steve his number, so maybe, steve thinks, channeling his inner bucky might make this thing with tony last.

bucky, on the other hand, knows that what he wants with tony isn’t just a one night thing. when he runs into natasha while she’s out with tony and she introduces them to each other, he thinks, “what would steve do?” and ends up spending the next two hours quietly enjoying their company and chiming in here and there, all the while sneaking glances at tony while he overthinks how to ask the guy out. he ends up stammering an awkward goodbye as they part ways, only to be brought up short when tony outright asks him whether he’s interested in seeing him again or not. bucky, relieved and disbelieving, breathes out an emphatic yes.

tony pulls out a pen and scribbles his number onto bucky’s palm and as he savours the warmth of his hand in tony’s, bucky thinks that maybe, against all odds, channeling his inner steve and not trying so hard to be super suave is how he can win tony’s heart.

after a few dates with each of them, tony starts to realize that neither of them is acting truly like themselves. sometimes they’d slip up and seem like completely different people. and tony, he notices and starts keeping track. the frustrating thing is, he likes them. he likes them so much. but he can’t fully give himself over to either of them if they can’t be real with him.

then one day just by chance, he sees steve and bucky together, hanging out and just being themselves, and the pieces start to click. he slides into the diner booth that the best friends are occupying, ready to confront them for being idiots.

but ultimately tony’s just incredibly happy knowing that this whole time the parts of them that steve and bucky had shown him, that he’d been falling for, were real. the only difference is now he can match the personality back to the face where it belongs. and maybe, just maybe, he can keep both of them.

Part of the MXTX Epic Journeys Big Bang

Summary: There’s a child lingering in the outskirts of the cultivation world. No one knows where he comes from, his age nor his goal. This is the story of how he found his way back home. Kay's comments: It's been a hot moment since I last read this, but I still remember how much of a hoot it's been! The story is absolutely incredible, like, it's definitely one of the most creative time-travel stories I've read! I really enjoyed how it came together slowly, it had me really hooked! Something happened that made the world forget Wei Wuxian, who now lingers at the edge of the culvation world as a nameless child (and in the past), helping where he can while the cultivation world grows worried over his influence. It was super cool to see him be re-introduced to the other charascters and I enjoyed everyone's characterization as well. Not for Jiang Cheng fans! Excerpt: “What is gongzi’s name?” he asks, realizing that at no point did the boy introduce himself. “Who knows?” The boy shrugs. It looks strange when he’s still hugging the sword. The act looks almost involuntary. “My name was forgotten and it’s not my place to tell.” Once again, Lan Zhan doesn’t know what to say. He can tell that there is a story behind this boy’s response and attitude, but he can’t pry. It is not his place to pry. He already overstepped once. Doing so again would just be rude. “Now, now, er-gongzi, it’s getting late. I’m sure you don’t want to skip your curfew. Oh, but the innkeeper only gives morning meals. You won’t get anything to eat now.” The boy sits on the bed near the window. The bed is a mess of outer robes and sheets. He makes himself comfortable, falling on the mattress with a plop and a pleased groan. He sounds nothing like the person who just lectured Lan Zhan on the intricacies of demonic cultivation. Lan Zhan sits down on the other bed. He carefully sets Bichen and Wangji down before removing his boots. He glances at ZhiRuo. Somehow, at some point, she laid her head on the table and fell asleep. Lan Zhan didn’t know ghosts could sleep at all. His gaze returns to the nameless boy. “About your cultivation method, can you tell me?” The boy blinks at him. He looks shocked. “You... Want to know?” “You made solid points.” Lan Zhan shifts until he is kneeling on the mattress. “I want to understand, so I can improve.” “Oh.” The boy scratches his neck. “That’s... Not what I was expecting. But it’s good! Very good! Definitely worthy of Han—of Lan-er-gongzi!”

pov alternating, canon divergence, time travel, time travel fix-it, temporary character death, hurt/comfort, grief/mourning, identity reveal, golden core reveal, cultivation sect politics, not cultivation world friendly, not jiang cheng friendly, abusive yu ziyuan, angst with a happy ending, developing relationship, mystery

Sometimes I think about what if in TKK3 when Daniel still considered Silver his friend he presented him a bonsai tree "for helping me so much, with the training and Barnes" and Silver is like🧍"No need for this, Danny, really, it's an honour for me to train such a student like you" and tries to give him the bonsai tree back but Daniel wouldn't hear any of it and promises to teach him how to trim it later bc he needs to return to Miyagi or smth but obv this next time never comes

Since i watched the double a little over a month ago i got sucked into the world of chinese dramas … and realized a lot of the ones i was watching had many repeat actors/actresses. So i made a web showing the overlap i found between 10 different cdramas that i’ve watched. See if you can spot each show.

(Disclaimer: i made it in 1 hour sorry if there are any mistakes)

I got back into the Monkie Kid fandom a while ago. So, I thoguht about the Bull Demon Family again. This may sound silly, but I thoguht it'll be fun to design Kaimeleon + Zhen as the Bull Demon family from the original Journey to the West story.

I know Chameleon isn't a great mom to Zhen,but the Demon Bull Family were a bit dysfunctional so I believe it still fits.

As you can see, Kai is Bull Demon King, Chameleon is Princess Iron Fan & Zhen is Red Boy-well, Red Girl technically.👀

SEGA's Most Famous Hedgehog Speeds His Way To... A Saturday Night T3 Marathon Special?

Hello, anime fans and video gamers. I am Gabriel Ramos, DJ and live-streamer for Toon Time Theater. Since it is approaching Sonic the Hedgehog's birthday, I plan on celebrating it the night before with a 12-episode SONIC X marathon. I know it may sound overkill, but it is the fact that SONIC X aired on 4Kids' Saturday morning blocks in the past few decades, particularly, the Fox Box, The CW 4Kids, Toonzai and lastly, Vortexx on the CW. I am eager to run a marathon and test the waters to see if viewers are interested in seeing more SONIC X on the New Gabe Order Twitch channel. I figured because of the isekai anime saturation that's happening now, and I have TSUBASA: Reservoir Chronicle as my only current isekai anime in the Saturday morning lineup. After the marathon, I will set up a promoted poll that will last until Friday morning when T3 Express signs on. I will check the poll live and reveal the next Saturday morning lineups before I live-stream an episode of Bartender. If no one votes, a draw happens, or if most of you vote to keep SONIC X out of the Saturday morning cram session, then I will cut SONIC X unless I plan another special Saturday night marathon. I doubt it'll happen, but who knows?

Here are the episodes that will be played on the marathon, but you don't have to take my word for it. Mark your calendars anime fans and Sonic fans, because this marathon will happen on June 22 at 6:30 PM PDT.

In case this is your first time seeing these kinds of posts, this is Toon Time Theater, a series of cartoon block live streams that happen Friday mornings and Saturday mornings on the New Gabe Order Twitch channel.

A funny thing happened at the doctor visit to check their fertility... Bailey and Quinton went in thinking they were planning ahead and getting prepared for the future. But the future popped up and knocked on their door just a little bit early. Ooops

Kai is my new Girlhood Journeys doll. Her stories take place in the year 1440 in the Yoruba kingdom, which is now known as Nigeria.

I read most of the Girlhood Journeys books as a kid in the 90's and loved them all. I never wanted any of the four dolls all that much, but when I came back to them as an adult I thought they were all so beautiful and special. I'm very pleased to have found my favorite of the four.

I have to sincerely thank @doll-princesse for making an informative post about sticky doll disease, which can affect Kai and other Girlhood Journey dolls. The main symptoms, sticky and shiny-looking vinyl, are a result of the chemicals in the vinyl separating. The toxic gases released during separation can be contagious to other nearby vinyl dolls, causing them to catch sticky doll disease, which is not curable. I remembered that warning when I saw Kai at the doll show, and so I was able to take the time to examine her before I bought her. I would not have bought her if she showed any hint of sticky vinyl. But I'm pleased to say that she is perfect from head to toe, and I have no worries about letting her stand on display with my other dolls.

Kai is 14 inches tall with vinyl arms and legs and a soft body filled with beans. She can't stand on her own, but a stand was included. She has lovely textured hair and painted facial features. I've also really enjoyed re-reading her book.

does anyone care abt me posting wips??

anywhere heres another i took the quartet stuff and edited it to being the same proposition but in a different setting yippee

There was a small knock at the door; two light taps against the thick wood that only just carried through.

Gortash lightly gestured his left hand without looking and a modified, smaller Steel Watcher whirred into action. It stomped over to the door and pulled it open, making way for a well dressed servant to step in.

With perfect posture, they confidently approached their leader, barely even glancing at the Bhaalspawn. “A letter from Lady Hhune, Your Grace. Claimed to be urgent.” The servant bowed their head, holding the delicate golden tray out toward the Archduke.

Gortash lifted the letter from the tray without looking at the servant. He idly strolled around his desk and to the empty space of the office as the servant left and quietly clicked the door shut behind them. He easily broke the wax seal of the thick parchment, his nose scrunching slightly as the strong perfumed scent of violet and iris wafted from the page. Dark eyes darted across the letter, reading quickly. 

Dearest Archduke Enver Gortash,

I would like to cordially invite you to the Songbird Theatre on the fourteenth of Uktar to attend a performance from the Waterdeep String Quartet.

In accordance with it being my birthday week, the highly talented musicians will be travelling down specifically to perform for the event, and it would be the highest honour to have you in attendance.

The royal box will be provided for your exclusive use, alongside seating for a plus one if you may choose to invite another.

A three course meal will be provided at the Hhune Estate afterwards.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Yours Faithfully,

Lady Silvia Hhune 

After a moment, he let out an amused huff of air from his nose. “They worked up the courage to send a personal invite.” Gortash held the letter out to Kaidos as he lazily opened only one eye to take the paper between his first and middle finger before rotating it to the proper orientation. Flaming eyes blinked open properly, barely glossing over the words as he also read fast.

“Are you taking a plus one?” 

“I might if I find the right person.” Gortash sat down next to Kaidos, their shoulders bumping together with how close he got. 

“No.” He handed the letter back to the Banite, who simply tossed it down onto the coffee table before resting a hand on the Bhaalian’s knee. 

“Look at me, darling.” 

Kaidos let his head fall to the side, still in his slouched position. 

“It truly would mean a lot to me if you joined me. You would enjoy yourself, I assure you.” 

A smirk tugged at the side of Kaidos’ mouth as he closed his eyes once more. “You’re such a good liar.”

Gortash tightened the grip he had on the tiefling’s knee to shake it a little bit, wordlessly insisting that he continue to have his attention. “You read the part about it being Lady Hhune’s birthday, yes? I will allow you to pick a member of her family off that very evening if you join me.”

The proposition made the Bhaalspawn open his eyes as the Banite continued.

“Think about it – how awfully tragic it would be –  to have such a shocking end to what would have otherwise been a lovely day for her. All down to your cold blooded actions.”

Kaidos remained silent for a few moments, clearly thinking it over.

“Her nephew propped up in his dining chair. Head on the plate before him. The first and only guest sat for her birthday dinner.” The Bhaalspawn could not stop the small chuckle which escaped as he finished his sentence.

“Oh, you are cruel.” Gortash shared a sadistic grin with Kaidos, now fully awake and sitting up straight. “So you will join me?”

“Why not? Perhaps I will enjoy myself.”
