Thinking about Taiga and the nicknames he gives people.

Jin - briefly mentioned in one of his voice lines. [No nickname]

Hyde - campus event. [Hyde gets called dirtbag.] [Sack of Shit.]

Romeo Scorpius 'Fico' Lucci - [Lulu]

Haru - [Harry] [Makes me wonder if Haru was in Sinostra before he was in Jabberwock.]

Edward / Ed- [Bloodsucker, which really is just Vampire.]

Haku - never explicitly mentioned but he called him an asshole in the prologue chapter so I think he somewhat remembers Haku's existence. [asshole] or. alt. [Nagi]

Rui - [Mickey] [Romeo also calls him Mickey.]

Ritsu - he needs time. Lots of time but time. [Dumbass w/ the book or just Dumbass]

PC - also needs to be reminded who they are. [Dumbass #2 or if affinity raised- Kitten, Kittycat.]

extra: Peekaboo - [Rat]

I want to get inside Taiga's mind. HE'S SUCH AN INTERESTING CHARACTER.

Because I'm on this, Towa names.

PC - [Dandelion] Meaning: overcoming hardship; faithfulness, happiness, love's oracle; rustic oracle; youthful recollections; coquetry

Ren - [Wolfsbane] Meaning: Misanthropy, chivalry; knight-errantry. [Lol, Ren and Chivalry?? I mean, I guess I can see that but not really 😭]

Kaito - [Coriander] Meaning: Hidden merit

Ed- [Rafflesia] Meaning: Symbol of death.

Additionally: *spoilers for Episode 6!!*

PC's Spider Lily Tattoo- This is where things with the meaning get tricky. Blue Spider Lilies symbolise the following: truth, calm energy, stability, freedom, and inspiration.

Though, the petals of a blue spider lily can change. In hotter climates, they become more pink symbolizing: Feminine love, beauty and passion. In cooler temperatures, they become more blue/purple. Here's a tidbit I think is pretty neat.

On an empty stalk [PC, in this case], the petals can only bloom in late August/early September. [Also, the time PC will turn into the anomaly.] [Because they got cursed on September 3rd/4th.]

Additionally: Campus Story: Towa offers you between two flowers:

Hydrangea- [Angry Towa] Meaning: In a negative sense frigidity, heartlessness. [Probably the general term in this since the flower wasn't shown to us.]

Lily - [Happy Towa] Meaning: Affection for loved ones. [Bro's such a hopeless romantic. I love him.]

I don't really write fanfiction, but have some research folder names for various projects i want to get to at some point on my usb. :>

if the other team pulls the goalie and they DON'T show a lil screen in the corner of the goalie hustling off the ice what even is the point

You know what, I'm gonna come out and say it. I know it probably happens in the show eventually but I just wanna see Sho and Judai have a fight. Like a massive friend falling out. Like a screaming crying fisticuffs falling out. I'm so fascinated by the progression of their relationship from being genuinely best friends to a one-sided mess of a codependence. This show and all the messy friendships in this show are so good.

Honestly I wanna study Sho and Judai under a microscope at how catastrophically bad friends they both are to each other at different points in the show. Yes they are GOOD friends a lot of the time but there are some moments you just go aw man what the HELL (and that goes for JUDAI too because Judai and Sho mistreat each other EQUALLY)

Obsessed with GX's main friend circle being a fucking mess and how people move in and out of it like irl friend circles

[krakenkakes]

nobody gaf about the ship I made up but I'll continue to think of them anyways, they could be Yuri. this could be Yuri 😭🔥

The main problem with Ruby gillman movie is that it sends a message that "bigotry is actually justified and your racist grandparents are right". The second, closely related problem is it's villain.

Firstly, if we look at the film without the spoiler-y marketing, Chelsea/Neressa is written as a twist villain. Like Hans Frozen type twist villain, with little foreshadowing and those "sympathetic" scenes that actually don't amount to anything and might just as well be a lie. Even with the marketing, i think the movie still tricked people into thinking that Chelsea might be a misunderstood villain or have a redemption arc or what not. And twist villains could work well, usually if their turn to villainy makes sense with their preestablished goals and personality (eg. Disney's Atlantis). Or a liar villain could work well if the audience knows of their malicious plans, but the heroes stay in the dark (eg. Scar from Lion King). In general, if the twist or reveal makes the story/conflict less interesting and/or didn't have proper foreshadowing, viewers are bound to dislike it.

Secondly, Chelsea is our only mermaid. And she is, well, evil. It would have been better if we had other good mermaid characters, but she is the only one, which, coupled with Gramamah's generous description of mermaids, makes it seem like all mermaids are as evil as she is.

Thirdly, yes, stories for young children about pure good fighting pure evil are generally fine, it teaches them right and wrong, so they can later consume media with more complex lessons. But in those stories the good guys are usually the underdogs fighting an oppressive evil. In mermaid vs kraken conflict, it's actually mermaids who are at a disadvantage. Krakens are big rulers ("protectors") of the ocean with superpowers. The characters themselves admit that Granmamah is a warlord. Mermaids are small, weak and need a magic trident to even match the power of krakens. Their only "advantage" is being popular with humans, while krakens are feared and hated, but humans have no effect on the story or the conflict. If the story was that mermaids are actually more powerful rulers of the ocean, or the kraken family were the just rules but got conquered/overthrown by evil mermaids, or if both species were of equal power ruling their own parts of the ocean and mermaids decided to go and conquer the peaceful kraken kingdom. Then the good vs evil conflict would have looked less like "how dare these evil inferior minorities challenge the rule of our superior race".

Speaking of which. Ruby's first instinct, even after finding out that "mermaids are actually evil" from her granma, is to judge Chelsea as her own person and assume that mermaids can't be actually evil. Which is, you know, a pretty fair and mature response. When she hears that mermaids suffer from terrible conditions, she actively tries to fight what she sees as injustice. But what lesson does she learn? That she should never question her elders, since they do know better. The story is fighting for the status quo to stay the same, while Ruby is punished to trying to change and improve it.

That's all i can say for now. Other complaints i have are:

humans are virtually useless to the story (including the love interest, tho he had some cute moments), they are just damsels-in-distress and trophies for Ruby to save and get approval from. This movie just as well could happen all under the sea with some minor tweaks.

The human designs are weird and uncanny. Otherwise the visuals are fine.

Ruby's arc is kind of all over the place with her main arc being the classic "believe in yourself", which she mainly gains through hanging out with Chelsea. But isn't Chelsea supposed to be the villain who "leads Ruby astray" from being a good citizen who is not skipping school, lying to her mom or ignoring her friends and crush? Make it make sense, movie.

Guys, I fell into the D*psy Rabbit hole after seeing big blowout she made in my gf's server and this post, and it got me thinking, who else was harassed by this kid? I want to see the "abuser" point of view because she did talk about Filthy in her previous joining of the RGTK server being her groomer (we didn't know at the time that it was false) and I finally saw Filthy's POV of it, which I am very sorry of what she done to you.

So it's understandable if you guys don't want to talk about it publicly. In the DMs would be fine because after seeing the context from the Megamind fandom, I started to think that there were other fandoms she put up a facade for before showing her true colors.

This isn't a hate post, I'm just curious about how others were around her. I would blame those drama vids to get me climbing down this D*psy Rabbit hole.

Also I made them a height chart <3

[creative-robot]

Honestly I think one of the funniest things you can do with a hermitcraft/life series Naruto au is to NOT make Etho Kakashi, but still not really change his outfit. The tied-for-second funniest things you can do with it being making Joel Sakura and/or making Grian be Gaara
