"bakugo didnt atone enough for what he did to deku!! bakugo doesnt deserve forgiveness!!" firstly wtf, the bitch literally almost DIED for izuku, not once but TWICE??? Used izuku as his motivation to keep fighting??? Spent 6-7 years leading a project to give back izukus dream??? Katsuki did all that for HIM?? 😭
katsukis alrdy made up for all the years hes bullied izuku, stop acting like katsuki didnt realize his own mistakes and made the initiative to change. stop acting like u the victim when yk damn well izuku had alrdy forgiven him way long before💀like no one is forgetting about bakugo's bullying, but his character is now way beyond that alrdy jeez 😭
and no, izuku is NOT katsukis punching bag. izuku is no pissbaby, he just tolerates katsukis shit (since theyve been inseparable for a goddamn long time) and occassionally throws jabs back at him... gosh, media literacy where? up my asscheeks thats what.
i know we're going to have to find out how they got their powers eventually, and I'm excited for that, but the true question that's been haunting me for months (years, in fact) is WHY did Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi keep their powers a secret from Qiao Ling for so long? what is the purpose of that?
it obviously calls into question how they got them. Cheng Xiaoshi didn't appear to have his power in any of his flashbacks with Qiao Ling (if he did he definitely would have tried to dive to bring his parents back) and even if he DID somehow have them lying dormant inside of him, it's not until Xu Shanshan goes missing that CXS uses them for the first time on his own, so he's never used them without Lu Guang's guidance before then.
so presumably he found out about his ability/received his power sometime after he knew Lu Guang. within the past couple years, probably. and they both realize this power could be used to turn a profit. that makes sense.
now how does Qiao Ling get involved in all that? how does she become their manager, WITHOUT even knowing how their power worked??
was it not suspicious that her little brother seemingly got time traveling powers out of nowhere? she never wanted to witness it firsthand?
i know she says near the s1 finale to Xu Shanshan that she believes Cheng Xiaoshi is more of a tool and Lu Guang in charge of their operations, but it's still so weird to me that that's only her best guess. like how did she become the person who vets their clients AND the face of their operation ("I hear there's an old witch/pretty fairy who can see the past with photos etc etc") when she plays no part in the time traveling??? WHY did she never ask to see them work before that? WHY did they never LET her see them work before that???
In the Captiol au, is Coriolanus still insanely jealous and possessive of Lucy Gray?
Coriolanus jealousy and possessiveness is 🔛🔝 she is his victor, his prize, his girl, his wife, his First Lady and his Lucy Gray.
She is fully aware of it, everyone and their dead grandma is aware of it. Sometimes the jealousy and possessiveness do come in handy, for example at parties or gatherings, when everyone wants accompany the First Lady while smothering her with flattering words. She knows Coriolanus can always shut it down without an explanation and a lot of times she even counts on it.
Tho in other situations it should be concerning how much he is aware of her whereabouts …and he takes full pride in it-

Lucy gray: *enjoying some pastries and tea in the afternoon sun*
Coriolanus: *overseeing her from afar* well I’d say, what a magnificent pair of…
this is part of my conspiracy theory that that album is aroallo, but i've always gotten the sense that romance and romantic attatchment is much less important to danger days than any other mcr record. with bullets&revenge it's quite obvious as the demolition lovers take up like, everything, and the black parade has a heavy focus on a romantic relationship as well.
while i do think there are lines in it that are romantically coded, there is a definitive lack of emphasis on it- like it's nowhere in the plot at all.
i do think danger days represents a very familial type of love though. while other albums visit a sense of "i want you, i need you, i miss you, i hate you,", this is more like…"i love you, i want to protect you, i'm sorry"
i find this especially strongly in s/c/a/r/e/c/r/o/w:
"Nevermind about the shape i'm in, I'll keep you safe tonight"
"love, love, love won't stop this bomb"
"run, run, bunny, run"
and other songs:
"i'll find you when the sun goes black"
"just save yourself and i'll hold them back tonight"
"how long until we find our way in the dark and out of harm"
relevant things i can't cover with just quotes are planetary go, oft-theorized to be about party poison and kobra kid, as brothers, leaving battery city together; sing, about the killjoys' last message to the girl while saving her; goodnite dr. death, phrased as him saying goodnight to children; and summertime, which i can't discern the meaning of but seems more like a family type of love.
i think it makes sense that danger days is like this, seeing as it features main characters that take care of a child main character as opposed to main characters that love other main characters of the same age/ability.
another thing i noticed while re-listening to the more sentimental songs for this essay is that there's just a distinctly different vibe to it. So much of it is focused around wanting to protect people, keep them safe and out of danger (<- ha that's the name of the album) and loved. i think this also makes sense, because the killjoys live a very, well, dangerous life without much security, and they'd want to provide what they lack the most. another semi-related thing i noticed is just how much of an emphasis there is on childhood in this album. i feel like there's a vibe of youth or teen-hood throughout the earlier ones, but this is just VERY strongly about kids. again this makes sense cause not only are the killjoys teenagers (a type of kid!) they also have a proper little kid to watch.
also, i wonder how much of this stuff was due to gerard becoming a parent. just something to think about
I haven’t posted a lot of my Eagleace doodles in a while, so I thought it would be fun to kinda post them all in one thing :3
First up, Eagleace Barbie Cowboys…. I think this could be their Halloween costumes, they just look so cute :3 I liked doing the alt colors too
Second Pokémon AU and some sleepy doodles, I started playing Pokémon go again a while back, and grimer (now Muk) is like my best little bud, and I always thought Bones would get a Staraptor, so…
Sleepy doodles are fun, some are a bit more unhinged than others, I was doing it on a call w my friends so that’s why :P
I cannot find the original artist for the left one and if anyone knows please let me know 😭 I tried reverse image search and it didn’t work for me, but this is the pic I used. I really like the right doodle though, aughgh they dancin,,,,
Alright so the Martian Girl thing,,, I think it could be a fun mini story arc if they like. Kind of got together before Bones and Ace do, but when he still likes them…. Martian girl gives me some seriously sapphic vibes, she wants to eat men but she doesn’t like them, I think she would find joy w a woman (but a nonbinary bat alien thing will do, she doesn’t discriminate). Anyways listen to ‘To Serve Man’ by Planet V that was what really started this. She’s already a villain in aquabats lore I just made her gay… Ace did not think Martian Girl had any romantic feelings for them 💀 maybe I’ll make some real drawings for this
Snuggies!! There’s this aquabats Snuggie that exists and I want one… so. The cutes.
These hoodie doodles,,, saved best for last. They’re both cold, they need two sweaters to function or nothing gets done
Sometimes I want to do too much at night. Sometimes the only solution to make that one thing that I finish a doodle. 2-4 usually make do so I can let myself sleep :p
