okay I’m finally free of class which means I CAN WILL SMITH AGGRESSIVELY AT THIS ACTUALLY PERFECT CREATION @captainderyn made!!!!! I’ve had a night to vibrate about it and I’m still at a complete loss for words. ;_; They are everything to me, your honor, and they are. immensely in love.

Just Tyr & Shara stealing a date night out in Kaas City to put aside Imperial Intelligence for at least a few hours and just. be two young fools in love. ;_; They end up half-soaked anyway on their way home because Tyr won’t stop dancing with her to half-recalled fading cantina music.

And also completely shameless plug for Deryn’s commissions - a completely lovely experience from start to finish and I’m just kadnfladsfnlsdf. Like I said, completely speechless with the results. Actual magic.

"no hints were dropped" ok not to be that person but here are the hints that were dropped regarding Colin and Trent being gay:

1. Colin mentioning Grindr in a joke

2. Trent touching the arm of a man in the background

Here is one of the hints that Keeley was bi (even though I do believe she's been canonically bi since season 1, but not everyone sees it this way)

1. Her desktop background was in the colors of the bisexual flag

Here were some of the hints that Ted was bi:

1. Bisexual flag colored triangles above his head in the hallucination sequence

2. Inverted pink triangle next to him in that same sequence (and you can't tell me the creators didn't know, when the Homomonument is based on that symbol)

3. Countless (countless!!!) comments about men's physiques ("huge muscular thighs all caked in mud", whistling at a picture of Pep, "look at that head of hair", "he's strong", "he looks like a Rodin sculpture in cleats", etc.)

4. About a man (Higgins) and a woman (Rebecca), he had to say: "that's a crowd I don't mind being smack-dab in the middle of"

5. Him checking Trent out in the pub in 2x07 (his eyes are up there, Ted!)

6. "It could go either way", "I contain multitudes" and other comments in this vein

7. Bi lighting as he entered the Yankee Doodle Burger Barn

8. Giving similar looks to the female waitress and the male waiters in that restaurant (including a waiter in a cowboy costume that looked like he belonged in a gay club, who tipped his hat at Ted when greeting him)

9. "That's cause you were put into a box", "That box ceases to exist today", the box in the hallucination sequence breaking into triangles (as in the bi triangles and the inverted pink triangke), "we've been playing too rigid", "our guys need freedom", "fast, fluid, free, with full support", the "box that one needs to break out of" being a prominent motif in season 3

10. Wishing Beard called him pet names ("Honey, is that an ingredient or something you just called me?")

11. His crush on Pep

12. The connection between Ted and Colin: "my whole life is two lives, really", both wearing orange in Sunflowers, "I just want to kiss my fella" (Colin doesn't say "fella" , but Ted says it all the time), Ted just needs to get inspired and Colin's play is "inspirational" after he comes out, as per the commentators

And so much other stuff that, had Ted not self-identified as straight (*cough* put himself into a box *cough cough*) , you could make the case that he was canonically bi.

Here are some of hints that there was a romantic connection between Ted and Trent:

1. They hit a lot of romantic beats, and not in the jokey self-aware way in which Roy and Ted hit them in "Rainbow", but in an organic and sincere way

2. They both checked each other out: Trent checked Ted out when Ted was changing in front of him, Ted checked Trent out when Trent came up to him in a pub and hit him with a pick-up line while his date that looked a lot like Ted waited for him outside

3. Did I mention that Trent was on a date with a moustachioed man who dressed in a similar style to Ted? Let's mention it again

4. In that very bar, during a 50 second long conversation, Trent managed to say the word "love" three times. I searched the word "love" in the transcripts of the episodes. There's no other instance in which its frequency is this high

5. "Love our chats" incomplete rule of threes

6. "Sport, it's quite the metaphor" (implied: a metaphor for love; see also "love's a beautiful game" from the song Ed Sheeran wrote for Ted Lasso), "Also makes for a heck of a nickname", "Good night, Ted", "Good night, sport"

7. The soft, romantic, melancholic song playing in the background of this scene, while Ted and Trent are the last ones left in the office, with lyrics such as "When your words begin to crumble like the sidewalks all around this crummy neighborhood / From the chalky cliffs of Dover / I'd come over, I'd start over if I could"

8. Trent wearing sunflower colors in the episode "Sunflowers" and in the finale; sunflowers symbolize Ted's home (it's not subtle). He's the only character dressed like that. I'm still looking for any other explanation other than "Trent is Ted's home"

9. Their constant flirting and the way they look at each other with incredible fondness

10. The entire episode "The Strings That Bind Us". It's structured around Ted and Trent's relationship, and the way Trent changed because of Ted (in season 2, Ted defined a soulmate as someone who changes your life forever). The red string metaphor. Ted points out that soulmates are connected by a string tied to their little fingers. Ted and Trent both extend their little fingers out in similar shots. They are connected by a huge block of red in their last scene of the episode. Ted makes several comments about other men that apply to Trent ("Look at that head of hair", "Frames his face nicely", "My favorite one, he was clean shaven"). Many more details that lead back to Ted and Trent: Nate tells the restaurant owner to tell Jade he said "Hello". Immediately after, Ted and Trent say "Hello" to each other. The map that Nate's father used to ask out his mom has the number 1.3 written on it and an illustration of two people at a table in a restaurant. Ted and Trent went to a restaurant together in season 1, episode 3. The last scene of the episode mimics a "Race for Love" scene from a romcom, with Trent chasing after Ted. Trent also does not say a word to anyone other than Ted in the entire episode. He is completely focused on Ted

11. "Trent, what do you love? Is it writing?" and Trent ends up writing a book about Ted and naming the manuscript after Ted and he only cares about Ted's opinion on it (he leaves the room when Beard starts reading, but stays in the office after hours just to watch Ted read. "I just wanted you to like it.")

11. Trent's crush on Ted, confirmed by Jimmy Lance (and also obvious in the show, if you ask me)

Now, why would I believe that none of these hints were intentional? Maybe some could be explained away, but all of them? The hints we got for Colin, Trent and Keeley were so much smaller than this, and those turned out to be intentional.

anon i wish i could offer you the response you deserve, but i cannot stop rereading this masterpiece & focusing on the portions of evidence you provided that i didn't even pick up on until you laid them out. holy shit

okay, hangster, obviously cause they got me in such a chokehold of ideas and whims and wishes, but I've seen a few people talking about one of the boys, usually Jake, think they're dating, while the other, usually Bradley, thinking they're just hooking up/it's not serious...

BUT what about a Bradley who thinks they're just hooking up because he doesn't think he's actually worth dating? A Bradley Bradshaw who is so riddled with self doubt and insecurity because the people he thought would support him in his life choices didn't and the few times he tried to have a serious, long term relationship, they treated him like shit.

And well, it's easy to put on a cocky veneer, to keep people from looking deep within when he plays piano and puts on a good show. It's easy to pretend other peoples opinions don't matter to him once he gets in his jet and does his job (even if Mav/Ice/Carole's actions and trying to control his life, keeps him so cautionary and repressed in his flying.)

So he just doesn't think he's worth it. Doesn't think he's worth the effort love and care for. Doesn't think he's worth enough to put up with his anger and bad moods and bad habits. Thinks that all he's really worth is sex and making his partner feel good, focusing all on them, the few hours they deem him decent enough to spend time with.

And then TGM happens and he talks with Mav and Ice and while they seem to bury the hatchet between them, they don't really talk about the real issues pulling his papers caused.

Then speed run a few months where the Daggers are a formed, permanent squad and Bradley and Jake start something up and it goes on for weeks, months and it's all good. Jake thinks they're falling in love, really building something strong and long lasting and Bradley feels like he's hanging on by his finger tips because he wants this so badly, almost as badly as he wanted to go to the academy.

Of course something happens and a fight ensues and Jake says something and Bradley can't help responding to it: "Of course I didn't think we were dating, Jake! Why the fuck would I let myself be stupid enough to hope for something I'd never get? That I didn't deserve? Why would I think you'd ever want me? I-I-I'm not worth dating. I'm not worth wanting or loving, so why would I let himself dare to dream, to hope, I could actual have you?"

something, something, Jake punches Mav and Ice out and absolutely smoothers Bradley in love and affection and possessive over him and gets even more cut throat when he even thinks someone is being mean to his Rooster. (the daggers also aide in this endeavor. And once Mav and Ice realizes how deeply they hurt Bradley, they actually talk things out for real and start really working to repair their relationship.)

I KEEP GOING BACK TO THIS FRICKIN MOVIE 🥹

Ok just hear me out. It's probably been said before too--

In the final scene of the movie, Mario ends up waking up from his alarm. When we see him get ready, it pans over to Luigi, THE BEST BOI IS ALREADY DRESSED AND HAS COFF- I MEAN TEA WITH HIM.

( I'm just gonna take a moment to appreciate how handsome and adorable he looks here.)

Ok, but it probably means he let Mario sleep in. What if the alarm wasn't even the first one Mario set for himself?

(shh he's sleepy 🤫)

I'm getting into headcanon territory, but it's not farfetched to believe that Mario -after everything- would need more time to rest. Neither is knowing Luigi would let him while making sure his brother is able to start the day off with something to energize him.

And it's so sweet and Mario looks to thoroughly enjoy the tea.

🥹 we all need a Luigi-

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

💚 Have these two goofs ♥️

I see your gay uncles of the straw hats Jimbrook and raise you old, gay, heartbroken, pirate captians who find a loving, romantic relationship in each other as they watch over a group of chaotic youngsters.

Because Brook and Yorki had a heartbreaking goodbye, and Brook spent 50 years mourning, but now he has a second chance. He wasn't expecting anything, but then, lo and behold! A handsome, kind, capable fish man enters stage right, and Brook is smitten. Here is someone who understands the grief of losing a captian and partner, then having to take their place to hold the crew together, but ultimately watching thier crew fall apart or suffer due to factors outside their control.

For Jimbei the last few years have been a whirlwind of chaos. He was looking forward to a new adventure full of chaos of his own making and choices. Now, enter stage left, this fantastic, enigmatic, adorable skeleton (and he's a musician!), who is a wonderful presence on a ship full of younger pirates. Jimbei never really moved on from the loss of the Sun Pirates, and hasn't had time to mourn all the friends he's lost in the past few years. But now he finds companionship and comfort in Brook. Someone who doesn't expect him to move on, let's him reminisce, but keeps him from getting stuck in his mourning. He's never thought of romance seriously before, but now he finds himself wanting.

The two meet in the middle, center stage on a ship of dreams as they forge a new one together. They still keep and work towards their individual dreams but find pieces of each other in them. Brook looks forward to the day he can introduce Laboon to Jimbei, and Jimbei has promised to translate the whale's words for Brook. Jimbei will see freedom for his people and finds motivation in every new song Brook writes and story he tells. Together, they find peace, calm, and rest. They find excitement, companionship, and a harbour in the other after years of storms.
