Charles McNaughton (Treasure Island)—he is such a weird little weird pirate in this movie!!!! the whole movie is creeEEEEeepy at this point, weird characters showing up at the bar FREAKING jim hawkins ass out, but charles mcnaughton's black dog (the first of many weirdos) takes the cake for me.

Dwight Frye (Dracula, Frankenstein)—he's my babygirl please please please please please i want to baby bird feed him flies and spiders and pick him up and make glitter edits of him and give him gross forehead kisses like he's my cat. in dracula he was so incredibly creepy that he was typecast as madmen for the rest of his life and he fucking hated it but by god if he didn't do a fantastic job. he steals the show every time he's up on screen just because he's so fucking deranged. i need him

[additional submitted propaganda + scrungly videos under the cut]

Charles McNaughton:

Link to the entire movie of Treasure Island [1932]—McNaughton comes in at 12:02. I haven't seen the whole movie in a long time so go forward with caution for content warnings!

Dwight Frye:

He absolutely owns the entirety of Dracula (1931). Compared to the novel, his part is massively expanded and it's clear why. He's magnetically unhinged and his facial expressions are pure scrungle. And in Frankenstein, he begins the archetype of Frankenstein's assistant even if the character's name there is Fritz. He'd still go on to play other scrungly guys in later Frankenstein movies. But he's kinda the archetypal and progenitor of the scrungly lil guy.

The scrungliest guy ever to scrungle. He's pretty much the blueprint for every mad scientist's assistant, and he's the best part of every movie he's in. He manages to make you feel sorry for the creepy little dudes, even when he's eating spiders and crawling across the floor.

[editor's note: content warning for the "hunchback" stereotype and "madness" in the clips below]

the "Rats" soliloquy:

I saw him in Dracula and frankly he has me bewitched. I could watch him do his silly routine forever. The gay tension with Bela Lugosi onscreen was frankly unparalleled. Kirk and Spock levels. I am chewing on the furniture

Played the weirdo little guy in Dracula AND the weirdo little guy in Frankenstein in the same year. Iconic.

I honestly think it would be a crime to ignore Dwight Frye's scrungle factor. He played two of the prototypical creepy little henchman as Dracula's lackey Renfield and Dr. Frankenstein's hunchback servant Fritz, and I believe that his excellence in these roles absolutely shaped the future character tropes of the "Igor" type as much as Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff shaped the future understanding of Dracula and Frankenstein's monster. He's got it all from the looks, to the manic energy, to the crazed laugh, I'm telling you right now that I think he could win the entire tournament.

The scrungles to end all scrungles! There's a reason why this man codified the manic vampire's familiar and the hunchbacked lab assistant for generations, because by God can this man be feral and scrungly: Whether he's soliloquizing about rats as Renfield, scurrying around Frankenstein's lab like a spider as Fritz, or skulking around dark alleys (and scaring the hell out of little baby me) waiting for a fresh heart to steal as Karl, if you want a scrungly little man for your classic film, Dwight Frye is your man. He has the range to play varying kinds of scrungle, with his wide eyes, his manic smiles, his soft, breathy voice, he is truly an undisputed scrungle master.

Liu and sully dating headcanond please 🥺👉👈

thank u anon i'm giving u a lil fist bump for sending this in <3 it might b a little short. just a tad. i hope u enjoy it nonetheless. <33 i was going to make a separate poly section but like. then i didn't. anyways i wrote this in one sitting. uhhh requests are opened also btw if anyone wants to send smth in <3

warnings: me being silly and deranged over liu and sully, mentions of guns, mentions of fire, mentions of religion, blasphemy???, blood, mentions of cannibalism, mentions of murder, i swear it's not dark sully is just. sully.

Liu.

dating?????? he knows nothing about it. no experience at all. a few crushes here and there when he was younger but... his priorities have been more-so dedicated to trying to kill his brother than being the next bachelor.

he probably doesn't even realize when he's developed feelings for someone, if we're being honest. there are only like... three sure-fire ways for him to realize he's got feelings for someone.

option a) sully. this is the most likely way, because sully is a solid(ly aggressive) wingman and would get fuckin annoyed seeing liu oblivious to his own feelings and would probably leave a note for liu to find that says something along the lines of 'ask them out before i do it for you'. that's certainly one way to make the man confront his feelings.

option b) you approach him first. be honest with your feelings, he's a really good listener. tell him how you want to go out on a date with him, or that you want him to be your boyfriend, whatever, it'll hit him in the face.

option c) patience. he'll figure it out one day on his own, just... it'll take time. and a lot of it.

anyways, using one of these three options laid out for you, you're sure to score a boyfriend! i hope you're not scared of fire. or guns. or... religion. those three things are pretty much a big part of him as a person, so.

but no yeah he's head over heels in love with you btw. the man would gift you the heavens itself if he could, but all he can give you are cute little trinkets that remind him of you.

he's so fucking romantic and he doesn't even try like. trust me. trust me on this guys please please you gotta believe me when i say this dude okay just like. trust me please.

he looks at you like you hung the stars in the sky. he'd probably be admiring you, resting his head on your lap while you play with his hair, your attention so focused on the show or movie playing. it's such a simple moment, but it's the one that makes him realize that he's in deep. like... wow. he's so in love with you.

he's a little hesitant to admit it, but you've become home. not because he hates it or anything like that, god, not at all. he's just... the last home he had was mercilessly ripped away from him. so pardon him for being a little scared. but you make him feel safe, and that's not something he's been able to feel in a long, long time.

liu doesn't murder without a reason. he actively avoids murdering people if he can. but he'd kill for you. whether or not that's something he's ready or willing to admit yet is up for debate but he would murder someone for you without any ounce of hesitation.

he's so willing to go out on dates w you btw. if you want to take a walk in the park, go see a movie, or whatever people do on dates then go ahead. he's legally dead in the eyes of the law. got a grave and everything, so he's not worried about being seen in public.

under the assumption that you know nothing about who he is, or his past, he's never going to tell you. all you'll ever know is that his parents were brutally murdered, he has a little brother that you... you think his brother is dead?? he talks about him as though he's dead. he almost died the same night his parents died, and his house burnt to the ground after. he's... really vague when he talks about his past. you'll never know the full extent, not unless the truth is forced upon you.

god i have so much more i want to add but i dont want this to get too long okay just. he's so in love with you. you've brought light back into his life, and he'll do everything in his power to keep you safe. he cannot lose you. yes we will ignore the thoughts i have of how he'd react if you did die lol. for now.

anyways he's the perfect boyfriend honestly <3

Sully.

also has no dating experience but he's not oblivious to his own feelings. the moment he decides that he cares about you a little more than he typically cares for another person, he's telling you.

he's so casual about it too, like. sir. how can you say 'yeah i think i could fall in love with you' with such a straight face?? you ask him that and he just shrugs.

i really hope you're comfortable with the sight of blood because trust the moment the two of you become an official couple, he's showing up at your place with injuries. nothing too bad, he'd hate to scare you like that, but just little things. like a gash of a knife on the palm of his hand. he has a really high pain tolerance but he'll act like the pain is utterly unbearable if it means having you help him treat it and kiss it better.

it's not like he actually needs you to take care of him. but he likes watching you. he likes watching the way you focus, carefully tending to his wounds, scared that you'll hurt him more if you're not careful. he likes watching the way his blood smears on your skin (totally by accident and not at all on purpose).

definitely the type to bite your lip just a little too hard when kissing you just so he can taste your blood. he thinks it's romantic idk the guy is kind of a freak (affectionately)

he'd probably eat you if he could but then he'd miss you too much so :( no cannibalism. but he thinks cannibalism is romantic guys. feel like i need to state that. he says 'i would eat you' but in a loving, romantic, affectionate way.

he never really understood religion, nor did he care much for it. he understood that it was a big part of liu's life, and therefore something he encounters often, but it wasn't until he started dating you that he understood. there must be some god or deity out there because heaven is wherever you're at.

you must be an angel, because how else could you love someone like him? he'd never pray to god, but god, he could pray to you all day.

and fuck, he thinks about corrupting you, dragging an angel like you down to his hell.

he can picture it now, tears streaming down your face, shaking in fear as you kill someone for the first time. their blood staining your hands and clothes as you drop the knife, horrified by what you've done while sully pulls you into a hug and tells you that you did such a good job.

i've already said this but sully likes watching you. you could be doing nothing at all, or someone could be talking to him. doesn't matter. the moment you're in the same room as him, he's staring at you.

you don't know why he does it, and he never gives you an answer when you ask. he just smiles.

you'd never think this, but sully is scared of you dying. people are so fragile, it doesn't take much to kill them. he's... he's never been scared before, and it... excites him. of course you're the one to make him feel this way. it could never be anyone else. anyways don't die. he'll be sad if you do.

was actually shocked when it clicked that he loved you. like... yeah, he said he could fall in love with you but. fucking wow it actually happened. holy shit.

anyways he tells you like .5 seconds after. he adapts to his emotions very quickly. the guy just casually says, 'hey, i'm in love with you.' and just stares until you respond with 'i'm in love with you too' and then he just has this small smile on his face for like... the rest of the day.

would also murder for you btw. no hesitation, no questions asked. if you want someone dead, he's killing them for you. clearly, they deserve to be dead if you hated them enough to wish for it.

solid boyfriend material but only if you're okay with. him. as a person.

[weebsinstash]

Now that I saw that doodle Vox made again, I'm just wondering how tf he knew Alastor has hooves

Also noticed that he was a lil fixated on Al's ass in that same doodle so there's that :>

I literally searched the Hazbin wiki for the source and couldn't find it but I've seen multiple people posting some screenshot of some website that says, Velvette previously stated Vox had an Alastor body pillow, and I don't know if that's an old Voxtagram post or more recent but it's been living in my head rent free ever since

Like there have been so many Viv streams and q&a's that have mildly spoiled things or mentioned facts that have since become non canon so I'm not sure what to listen to anymore but dude, reading the wiki of all the amalgamated facts is A TRIP. Vox is Actually Totally Correct: despite Alastor having his gentlemanly persona and some weird "serial killer moral code, like dexter", he canonically has awful oral hygiene and both Vivzie and... Fautisse? Have mentioned this. His demon form has black gums. Vivzie said he "probably doesn't prioritize oral hygiene" and also probably wasn't a cannibal in life so that's literally a new hobby he picked up in death so also um. THE SECOND THIS MAN HAD FREE REIGN AND THERE WAS NO RULE OF LAW OR CONSEQUENCES HE DECIDED TO START EATING PEOPLE SO LET THAT SINK IN.

You start reading Alastor's wiki page and it makes it pretty clear he's like DERANGED, hypocritical, he's like borderline a megalomaniac? It's all hidden behind this, persona, this wall he puts up, his well put together demeanor that allegedly never cracks, but underneath his showmanship he's a haughty, insecure, judgy, gossipy, genuine FREAK who responds with insults and violence whenever he can who relishes in trolling people and scaring them, literally enjoys knowing when he's making people uncomfortable

I have so many conflicting feelings but like PRETTY SURE HIS VERSE IN THE FINALE WAS A VILLAIN SONG, HE'S LITERALLY SINGING ABOUT BEING PISSED AND WANTING TO RETALIATE BECAUSE HE'S BEING FORCED TO DO STUFF HE DOESN'T WANT TO

THUS

I AM CONVINCED VOX IS JUST A BOTTOM AND A SLUT WHO THINKS ALASTOR IS JUST REALLY COOL AND HAS A ONE SIDED PATHETIC BOY CRUSH

Bro the sound I fucking made when his wiki trivia says he's been described as "painfully white, like phlegm in the back of your throat white" NO DONT DO MY TV MAN LIKE THIS 😭🤣

Anyways, you've probably seen the posts but for someone who claims to be so hip and modern, Vox goes out of his way to dress similarly to Alastor. The coat with lapels in the front and a tail in the back, a bow tie with a cravat, cuffed sleeves, intentionally or not the color contrast of Vox's hands resembles Alastor's and Vox CAN customize his body...

He's just. I just completely forget sometimes that Alastor literally called him OLD PAL in episode 3 and yes he was obviously saying it to talk down to him but like ALASTOR DID ACKNOWLEDGE HISTORY BETWEEN THEM, and also oh wait what's this, Vivzie has confirmed Vox and the Vees are major antagonists of Season 2 and that Vox and Alastor's history is going to be expanded upon so.... radiostatic shippers stay winning ha ha

I read a post that I meant to reblog that was something like "Vox is actually an incredibly cunning charismatic manipulative businessman who is a legitimate threat and we see this for all of 5 minutes and the second Alastor is mentioned he starts completely coming apart" and it's SO TRUE, he can be ur angel or ur devil. He's a legitimately OP threat and he's also A PATHETIC SAD FAILHUSBAND. Give me Vox who's efficiently marketing more hypnosis equipment to substantially grow his own wealth and manipulating his shareholders and then he's going back to his computer room with some popcorn and kicking his little feeties as he watches his darling and Alastor on like 30 different monitors. Give me Vox who can know the INSTANT someone is trying to go behind his back and double cross him because he has mass surveillance all over the city and he's using his endless resources to develop high end 3d printers to make posable figures of his crush and Alastor.

Give me Vox who loses his cool and insults you to your face and you two get into a huge argument and maybe Velvette and Valentino lash out at you in defense of him and he's going to his room and crying from frustration into his body pillows totally not plural, totally not ones of you and Alastor and calling himself a stupid idiot because he hurt your feelings and then spends the next like week SUFFOCATINGLY showing up almost every single place you are and embarrassing himself as he tries to bond with you and prove to you what CLEARLY AWESOME boyfriend material he is

[zibiscusloon]

So Ruin got me feeling things-

‼️ (Spoilers under the cut!!!!) ‼️

-First off can I say how much I adore Cassie? Girl committed breaking and entering, dealt with a decrepit torn down old Pizzaplex, fought off several animatronics that by all means could have killed her, helped some of those said animatronics find peace, all in the name of saving her friend. You go girl.

-ECLIPSE!!!! 🌞🌗🌚 I LOVE THEM!!! 💕💕💕💕(For those who don’t know, I’m now outing myself as a Daycare Attendant simp), Sun/Moon was always my favorite character in the original game, and I’m so happy we were allowed to give them some sense of closure with themself, Sun & Moon are definitely in a more healthy state of mind as Eclipse.

-GLAMROCK BONNIE—

-Also got fed on some Glamrock Fronnie content, we keep winning-

-“You and me, forever and ever. Love, Freddy.” Freddy that’s pretty gay-

-The 👏Roxy 👏redemption 👏we 👏were 👏fed 👏

-Her and Cassie’s bond is so cuteeeeee….. and she came back to try and save Cassie in the end!! (Steelwool we better see more of these two-)

-The overall atmosphere really tipped more into Fnaf traditional horror which I loved

-Mimic was… something.. still don’t know exactly how to feel about them. I mean I knew that couldn’t be Gregory that we were talkin go to cause I know he isn’t a lil coward but still..

-Speaking of Gregory-

-DUDE. WHAT THE FUCK.

-I’ve been backstabbed, betrayed, bamboozled-

-AFTER ALL I DID TRYING TO SAVE YOU-

-Gregory and me are now on bad terms y’all. Love the little bastard to death but I’m really pissed at him right now.

-THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THAT-

-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

-Gregory and I are beefing right now. Leave me be.

-It’s also now heavily implied that the Princess Quest Ending was the true ending to the original game instead of.. the true ending-

-Also implying Vanny is no longer under Will’s influence. Kinda sucks.. like yeah good for her that she’s free now but girl got no time to be a villain! Let girls be deranged!!

-I have.. a lot of headcanons and AU shit to rewrite now. (Pretty much now confirms Greg and Cass aren’t siblings so Imma have to get rid of that-)

-I’m trying what I can now to find all the endings. LORD I’M A WRECK.

Lust Love in the Desert, ep 8 liveblogging

FL's 2 servants are hyped that there's a local festival to attend while FL is the personification of 😐 because she's actually hyper aware that being in this harem is dangerous

That maid servant is the weakest link tho. She keeps dropping like HEY ABOUT YOUR SECRET IDENTITY (face palm)

So, huh, FL bakes for faux enunch instead of rewarding him valuables. He gives her a pro tip about the Lord liking tea that contradicts what he told the other concubine. I'm a lil curious to see if this eventually goes anywhere.

Yunpei Lord is tricking himself out in a fancy outfit, playing emperor, while ML is plotting to search the grounds while everyone is at the festival

Red ribbons in the tree branches to make FL feel bittersweet longing. Nice move.

I'm kinda intrigued by the dynamic between the Lord and FL. She keeps things coldly clinical, polite but distant, and makes excuses not to have sex or join him for a meal. But in abscense of this she highlights that her focus in on mastering the scrolls - so he actually allows it - when normally this stuff would get a concubine punished.

In a world where she hadn't already gotten attached to her mystery man, these 2 might actually have worked out a very functional partnership? He would have his sexy ladies and she would have become his trusted advisor. 🤔

FL was doing some delicate probing about Lord's sentiments towards Masui (her actual homeland). But we don't really learn anything new.

I only wonder how much Lord would truly care where she's from, if she is ready to openly consult on the Special Scrolls. Part of me thinks he's already suspicuous, he's just not gonna explore it while it seems that she's useful

Ruo Wen, bandit extraordinaire, is also at Yunpei. Why? I have no idea. (They probably explained but I didn't care.)

Princess 2 has tracked him down like a bounty hunter for looooovveeee.

Her actually professing to be in love with him clearly disturbs the dude, who's likely thinking, but WHY?? just like I am.

She throws some rich girl tantrums to get his compliance and he basically stops fighting it and allows her to tag along.

This truly is that deranged, obsessed supporting FL character energy you'd see in another drama, where she clings to the ML's arm and constantly plots to force-marry him and have the FL framed & sexually assaulted....... Except here it's all directed at the villainous 2ML, which is objectively hilarious.

It's like the guy instinctively KNOWS this isn't how the story is supposed to go and he's thrown completely off balance. 😆

The entire cast has shown up for the lantern festival. 2nd couple playing tourist while probably scheming. FL floating lanterns and promising mom she'll avenge-- OH HI ML

They're strolling on opposite sides of the river. Longing but forever parted. It's all very romantical. 😢

United on the bridge! Soft gazes and slow-mo running hand in hand. Kissing vibes but NO KISS.

"Do you miss me?"

cdramas love masks with a passion I will frankly never understand.

Any time you introduce a mask into the situation I just lol. Instant clownification. It kills any badass or romantic vibes for me

But hey, both main and second couple fireside join dancing

The princesses touch hands 👍

They change up partners, so Ruo Wen can clutch the FL all 🍆 🍆

👎

2FL bullies her bandit into wearing a flower crown, though he's still thinking about FL. You can't change a dog.

[depressedhatakekakashi]

I struggled a bit more with this one but i feel like it’s perfectly represented.

I did almost have Team Sannin in ‘deranged’ or ‘sad wet sad/deranged’ but honestly, they fit better as Bisexual/sad wet cat. It fits them.

Team Minato is self explanitory

Team Seven is absolutly the centre of the pile you cannot tell me otherwise, but i will admit Team Suna almost took the spot as well. However, Team Seven has more bisexual energy exuding from them (mostly thanks to Sakura and Naruto, but Kakashi’s helping a lil)

Do not come onto my dash and tell me team 8 is not deranged. Shino blew off a dudes arm cuz he could. Kiba will throw himself into a fight just to prove he’s better than Naruto. They killed people in the chunin exam. Hinata ripped out Hanabi’s eyes from Toneri’s skull (which we support. She was right to do so)

[carly404error]

Starting to read a new BJ fanfic, “But What If, Instead”, by moonbuunyblues on ao3 (their tumblr is @bunnys-beetlejuice-blog ), this is the start of the thread where I liveblog the fic and gradually get more deranged about it!!

I hate Juno.

Why would you leave a 12yo out on his own… WHY…

Dude BJ was so happy upon seeing the upper world, just a lil guy running around the grass, and now he’s alone, hiding among the people.

[asliceofzosan]

Don't mind me I'm just scrolling through your blog liking Things also you are RIGHT Sanji deserves long hair

long haired sanji supremacy i need to see him in the fullest most luscious ponytail and fishtail braids !! and dude feel free to scroll by i am just a deranged lil guy

[wannaeatramyeon]

HELLO Tom and Olly anon here. DUDE YESSS You absolutely should if you ever get the time or want to!! I personally think they have alot of potential esp with Olly with his absolutely tragic backstory and how "Big Daddy" became, he's got layers and complexity to him, going from an actual really good mannered scholar little boy on the top of his class to an insanely strong numb druggie gangster training under Gun and running Hostel for a while. Even his Hostel members are really amazing and I love all of them so dearly, Chuck Peng and Justin Kwak alongside James Gong(literal crazy ass bitch, Olly 2.0, he's my everything) and Jasmine(rooting for her with James, they deserve each other). I do also majorly love brothers Chuck and Justin but honestly they don't got much going after Olly's death, except for their lil food stand.

Tom on the other hand is kindaa just...big papa? Not alot in terms of backstory and complexity imo I don't think but his character is absolutely hilariously terrifying and so entertaining, and he has a very interesting stance on like...romance? Sensual stuff? I don't even know what to call it, his continuous blabber about women and Ms Kim and dangglers and whatnot. And per Ms. Kim reaction to him saving her and also Minseon Kang calling him an ugly motherfucker, I think it's safe to say he isn't quite, a chick magnet, in the usual pretty boy sense? So l've always let my mind wonder on about that untapped rusted over faucet that is interactions with him.

Super sorry l'm just spilling in the asks, I just wanna share my own little blabbers and thoughts to boost your interest if you still are.😭💖 Thank you for reading over if you did! AH AND ALSO very much thank you for the link last time, you are literally serving us buffets of thoughts, 600+ is insane!!! And your interpretations of the characters are So good its arms in arms with canon stuff honestly, I’d say its super accurate or at least enough to be able to envision the characters acting like that. 🥹🥹💖🙏🙏

Hello Tom and Olly Anon (this made me lol). Yknow I was actually thinking about Olly today. Man I really really need to reread the chapters cos I gotta be honest you've piqued my interest!

I am also really hoping James and Jasmine and their deranged army of lil Eli Jangs make a reappearance cos that shit was so interesting.

Tom is a harder sell for me to take seriously or at least with the stuff I usually write which is sorta fluffy, occasional crack. Maybe the crack fits him better cos all the dangler comments (whether actually serious or not) is all I can remember of him lmao.

Aww thank you for being so sweet! I think the overall fandom has done a lot with adding to the characters tbh, and talking about them with other people has helped so much with fleshing them out! And then in turn, I'm a lil gremlin in a darkened corner churning out my brainrot and headcanons 😁

[strawberry-peach]

still cant stop thinking abt them and its only getting worse get me outta here

Ok i need to say it just to get it outta my head but i had, yet again, a weird ass dream last night. This time weirder than my last tofie one bc this one used characters that what the actual fuck brain, seriously? How?? Thing is it kinda created the wildest pair but also an incredible potential for tragic romeo and juliet shit like whoa man make up your mind, are they having the sexy time or a tragic angsty heartbreak and maybe even fucking death?? Man please chill im so confused and now sad?? Anyway this makes no fucking sense i know i just need to put it out there bc its not gonna leave my head for a fucking while now and im still getting over the fact that it paired THOSE two characters and made it work. You know what im spilling, one was Javi Peña ok? But the other one has nothing to do with him at all? Except my brain said bitch he does, look! And he kinda did and I shut up and let the ride go bc i cant stop my brain from going deranged whenever he wants so🤐

Ok thats it im off you can ignore me sorry.

[hotvintagepoll]

Marius Goring (A Matter of Life and Death)—as a murdered french aristocrat doing business for heaven in A Matter of Life and Death, he’s channeling Lestat if Lestat were dressed entirely in party city bargain bin items, played by Lumiere from beauty and the beast, and drenched in cheese. Goring could not have done a worse job and I love him for it.

Dwight Frye (Dracula, Frankenstein)—he's my babygirl please please please please please i want to baby bird feed him flies and spiders and pick him up and make glitter edits of him and give him gross forehead kisses like he's my cat. in dracula he was so incredibly creepy that he was typecast as madmen for the rest of his life and he fucking hated it but by god if he didn't do a fantastic job. he steals the show every time he's up on screen just because he's so fucking deranged. i need him
