Sometimes ya gotta submit some wholesome-bait. It canā€™t all be changeling Timmy
WHOLESOME BAIT IS VERY VERY GOOD
I WAS CLINGING ONTO THAT ASK FOR A WHILE. THE VISION WAS IN MY HEAD. OUGGHHG
Ok, sorry y'all, I'm using this ask to further elaborate on the Wells Family and Coswan vs The Turners.
The Turners are an old school traditional family. They saw CosWan and went "That's not normal." They did NOT like the way CosWan acted. They were unnatural. Stilted. Just their presence alone would damage the property value of the neighborhood!
Meanwhile, the Wells are absolutely enchanted with their neighbors. Their silly antics are so refreshing to have after moving to a whole new city! They're eccentric, a bit ditzy, but there's so much charm in that.
"Two halfs of a whole idiot" is dropped once, and the Wells loves that. It's probably already being used in Mrs. Well's next book.
They're just!!! :DDD !!!

*Jubilee was in her room, laying on her bed, bored out of her mind. She was shooting off small sparks, watching them bloom into smaller pieces in the air before shimmering down around her. Scott had taken her CDs, as well as her Nintendo. She was so. Bored. But she didnā€™t currently want to leave her room, in case she got in more trouble. She wasnā€™t even sure sheā€™d leave to go to dinner. Like, jeez, Scott had sworn. It probably wasnā€™t solely her fault, she knew that, but it still happened. She did contribute to it, whether she meant to or not. Dammit. She shot up a bigger one, and cringed as it popped louder than they had been previously. She hoped no one heard it.*
*She swore, running her hands through her hair, tugging on it in a poor attempt to self-regulate. So stupid.*

storytime: a surprise at the end of hardware hacking
So many of you know that when it comes to DVDs, they are "region encoded" -- short version, hardware to play DVDs has something built into them to only play disks from a specific area, and the world has been divided up into six areas. North America is Region 1, the UK is Region 2, Australia is Region 4, etcetera. And a few of you know that there is also a Region 0 with no limitations, and it is Desireable to have a DVD player that can operate regionless should you be someone who watches anime or other stuff imported from elsewhere.
There were DVD players by at least a couple makers that had a simple trick to set the player to regionless: if you put a CD in the tray that contained a file with a specific name (the one the player would be looking for if a firmware update was available, I presume) but it wasn't an update data file, a hidden menu would come up and allow you to change the region from any number between 0 and 6. There was a file going around for years with that name that people were downloading to burn to disk. [Somebody figured out all you really had to do was make a short text file and give it that name, so this file going around wasn't actually necessary.] For reasons I bought a player that used this method and downloaded the file, finding it on the third place I looked because the first two sites linked went defunct.
I threw that file into Notepad to see what kind of code would trigger the menu... hmm, the first line in it says "EXIF Canon PowerShot G5" followed by garbled stuff. Wait a damned minute, this is a JPG!!
So under the cut is what people have used for at least 15 years to hack their DVDs players to become regionless:

And they literally turned Light Fury into a tampon with glitter, a dragon Barbie, etc. The whole point of her design is not in the "sea theme". NO. It's the fact that she is so smooth and feminine stupidly because Toothless needs an ideal female, so that even a one-year-old child can understand that she is a WOMAN.They turned graceful, sarcastic Toothless into a fucking slobbering muscular dog with giant eyes, removing the last drops of intelligence and elegance from him (probably because males can't be elegant, right???). And they literally turned Light Fury into a tampon with glitter, a dragon Barbie, etc. The whole point of her design is not in the "sea theme". NO. It's the fact that she is so smooth and feminine stupidly because Toothless needs an ideal female, so that even a one-year-old child can understand that she is a WOMAN.
I agree with you on some points, have some extra opinions, and disagree in some places. I don't like what they did with the movie, it was inconsistent with 1 & 2. They were trying to hard to tie it back to the books and forgot about what they built outside of the books, and as someone who has read and watched both it makes me sad because they were both great independently. I understand they needed to end it (Or not since there's an upcoming live-action but I digress.) and they did it decently with what they had. It was always going to be sad, but I feel like they could've done better with the plot, in the end it was a good movie but only okay to a hard-core fan. (I happened to be one.) I know they wanted to end with a win and that's why Grimmel and the hu ters were deafeted, but it would've been better if there was still an actual not nullified threat. If we could see the danger just on the horizon so they sent them to safety then the win would be seeing the dragons had escaped and had families years later. I don't like how they villianised deathgrippers, "There are no bad dragons just bad people." -Valka. As for the lightfury design I'm actually ok with that, as you see in the hidden world the whole species, even the male lightfuries, look like that. It's unique, no other dragon is as glossy or shiny, but it makes sense other dragons have been fighting and getting tougher while in the hidden world lightfuries just chill out. I would've very much liked another nightfury, but the show did reiterate in just about all things httyd that Toothless is the only one, but at least he now isn't alone. (Also side note watch the short homecoming it's nice to see Toothless never forgot Hiccup.) I agree I think Toothless's design wasn't the greatest in the third movie (my fav versions of him are httyd 2 and gotnf). As far as his design goes I think they leaned more towards an expressive dog than they were trying to make him more masculine. Thanks for the ask!

On the last day of summer vacation... The Writer and His Muse
Full disclosure, I wrote another version of this last night. It was... factually correct. But it just wasn't good. So I saved it and took a few steps away and realized what I was supposed to be writing. I apologize now this is going to be long.
When I came up with the idea to write this series, I wasn't sure of the structure. If I'm honest, I still don't know lol. And after being called the "Riverdale Analysis Auteur" (thank you @storkmuffin ā¤ļø), I promise to do the utmost to put forth only my best for you. There isn't going to be an uploading schedule so follow the tag "Code Word Jeronica" to see when I post.
My intention with this is to show that from the pilot there has always been the opportunity for Jeronica. I know what you're saying "there's an opportunity for ALL pairings."
Tumblr media
And, yes, while you are correct. There were some possibilities that were more feasible than others (Sorry Jarchies!). For the skeptics out there, the showrunners did chemistry tests with so many pairings. Cole even admitted that he did one with Cami and he was open to a Jughead/Veronica relationship "It's the CW, anything can happen"! Coding isn't always intentional or needs to be taken seriously. And that's okay. As a writer myself, I understand the "side character curse" all too well.
With all of that being said, I will only be focusing on the evidence we get in the show itself. I may reference the comics sporadically (like how Jughead and Veronica have been paired up/dated several times in the comics, throughout the comic's history. Below is a picture from Pep #154 in 1962!) but I'll never reference anything outside of the source material as evidence.
Tumblr media
The Writer and His Muse
It's established from the pilot that Jughead is a writer, an aspiring novelist. All writers need a muse. Something that inspires them to put pen to paper. In Greek Mythology, Muse was a Greek Goddess who gave inspiration to all. Often, a muse is referred to as a beautiful woman but it can be anything. The show Riverdale is the muse for fanfiction writers who write in the universe. Jughead has several muses throughout the show. He goes through various tribulations with his writing. We see him suffer with writer's block, make a deal with the devil (both Jugheads in Rivervale), and we know that the story that put him on the map was a telling of him and his friends.
In the overall show we know of five big stories that Jughead writes. Jason Blossom's murder, The Red Dahlia, Killing Mr. Honey, The Outcasts, and Bend. Towards. Justice. All follow a pretty basic plotline. Something happens, a group of teens have to investigate, there's a surprise twist, and then a resolution.
But, through all of these he has one muse that is constant. Would you believe me if I told you it was our fair Veronica? Because it is. Before you ask "What about Betty?", let me ask you the same. What about her? She is a character in his stories. Sometimes she's the main character. But being the main character and being a muse are two very different things. Veronica's presence in his stories symbolize different major elements to a story. More than any other Riverdale character.
Throughout the series we see Jughead struggle with his writing. His father tells him to keep writing as a way to get out of Riverdale and not get caught up with the Serpents. We see him have profound writer's block, plagiarize another author, change the way he writes due to his disability, and physically lose his ability to write. His writer's block, and the complications with it, start in season 5 and aren't resolved until season 6.
Here's an unexpected bonus from helping Veronica...
Tumblr media
...I started writing again.
She is, and has always been, his muse. This is the first time he acknowledges it, but the clues have been there since day one.
Jason Blossom's Murder
The first story begins with the pilot's very first scene. It also introduces the audience to a concept called "The Center of a Story". The center of a story is just how it sounds. It is the element that brings everyone together. However, while this can be the main character and what that character goes through, it can simply be a person or place that has very little interaction at all with the main story. In a murder mystery, which Season 1 is, the center of a story can be the murder victim. In telling that story we can either have flashbacks of the person's life up until they are killed; or, they are simply the reason why everyone comes together (and not even just to find out why. Sometimes the why isn't necessary).
Jason Blossom is the center of the story. It's all about finding out who killed him. But the muse of the story? The hook? The character's entrance that actually connects everyone together? That's Veronica. "On the last day of summer vacation, a new mystery rolled into town." Jason's murder is the B-plot of the season. It might have kicked everything off, and the action might be connected to him, but it's not the entire reason why Jughead is writing this book. In fact, the opening soliloquy says:
Our story is about a town, a small town, and the people who live in the town. From a distance it presents itself like so many other small towns all over the world. Safe, decent, innocent. Get closer though? And you start seeing the shadows underneath. The name of our town is Riverdale.
The story was never about Jason Blossom.
The Red Dahlia
I'm not going to touch on this much, because I have a whole post planned just about this episode. But, I want to point out that out of all of the stories we see him write, this is the only story that focuses solely on one character. It's completely about Veronica. She, like Jason, is the catalyst. The difference is that, unlike Jason, she plays a major role.
Killing Mr. Honey
In his last story to submit to the University of Iowa, it's about how seven teenagers try to get rid of their unethical and overbearing principal. We have known up to this point that Jughead loves horror. He likes to write "Lovecraftian" style stories. The difference between the two are HPL rejected morality. He considered himself a "Morality Atheist". Jughead, on the other hand, loves morality tales. (In 1955 there's a whole episode about it.) This is most evident in this telling. Each character represents an architype. Veronica, arguably, is the most important architype. She represents morality. She's the only one who really challenges what they are doing. Specifically, Jughead. At face value someone can go "Well, Jughead and Veronica aren't friends so it makes sense". First off, no, they very much are friends. But, second, if they weren't, why put her in such a place of honor. In actuality, given his character in the show (and the comics), Archie should be the moral compass of the story.
The Outcasts
The Outcasts is really the only story that we have very little knowledge of. I freely admit that for evidence, it's the weakest of the five. It presents coded details for the audience to infer their meaning. Jughead is the Viper Leader, the Serpents are the Vipers, but is Betty The Homecoming Queen? Most likely. The co-ed he takes home tells him that he wrote a "very sexy book" in regards to the Viper Leader and the Homecoming Queen. However, in his drunken voicemail, he lambasts Betty. One line in particular stands out "You're a cold, fake, duplicitous bitch. And once people read my book, everyone's going to see that". Now, we don't know what is in the book (Kind of wish they'd released it) and it could end with the Homecoming Queen cheating on the Viper Leader with the Football Captain (I'm inferring that that would be Archie's character). Or, they could have lived happily ever after. Or... using the ambiguity to stretch the possibility... the Homecoming Queen could have been Veronica.
Why? Well, there's a reason why the Enemies to Lovers trope is so popular. What better way to get back at your ex for cheating but to immortalize their best friend (who was also cheated on by your best friend) as the true-love-fairy-tale-princess of your wildly popular NYT best seller?
Bend. Towards. Justice.
The last story we see Jughead write is when they've been taken back to 1955. 7x01 is very reminiscent of the pilot. But, for Jughead and his writing, it's always been in the details. Season 7 is my favorite season, and trust me, I have a lot to say about what happens. So, I'll keep this brief. Even when he describes Tabitha it's very factual. There's no emotion. He lists who she is and the reason why she might know what's going on. Please don't take this to mean that at this point he isn't still in love with her, because he very much is. When he sees her, he doesn't know the 1955 version isn't his girlfriend. He keeps all of his emotions bottled up until he can figure out a plan. And to spare her from any craziness because her memories also might be gone. Up until this point, everyone's description is "This person is here, and this is who they are". Including himself.
For starters I live in an abandoned train car with Hot Dog which... actually tracks... Betty and Kevin aren't merely friends, they're dating. Cheryl's twin brother is alive, but he's not Jason, he's Julian. No sign of a Reggie yet. But Archie exists and he's pretty much a teen Charles Atlas... I've been waiting to reconnect with the one person who might shed some light on our predicament because she was both Chronokenetic and the town's guardian angel. My girlfriend, Tabitha Tate.
He mentions that all of this information is "overwhelming, heartbreaking". But he doesn't say why because there are many reasons why. His best friends don't remember anything. Do they even really know him? With one one question he realizes that the person he loves doesn't love him back. But he breaks this way of introducing the "characters" when he introduces Veronica. It's all emotion. There's even a sexy jazz trumpet riff announcing her.
Tumblr media
"Damn..." His thoughts whispered to him breathlessly. "Even in 1955, Veronica Lodge still knew how to make an entrance." He goes from boredom to attention. He straightens his shoulders, he sits up to see her better, and he doesn't blink. Like everyone else, and very unlike him, his whole attention is on her.
THE PILOT
Now that we've gone through the five major stories we know he writes, let's go back to the end to see the beginning. The last episode of the entire series ends with a typewriter. All of the stories mentioned above are stories written within the main one. Riverdale itself is a story (possibly Archie Comics fanfiction) written by Jughead.
The pilot itself, as all TV shows, has a narrative woven throughout. There's characters, conflict, plot, etc. Though the episode opens with Jason's murder the pilot was never about that. Hell, Jughead is barely featured in it. We see him two significant times. The first time is two minutes in, where he's drinking his coffee writing his story. And he says the classic line, "We were still talking about the Fourth of July tragedy on the last day of summer vacation, when a new mystery rolled into town." We are introduced to Veronica Lodge, by Jughead, right after we're introduced to him. At this point he's only named Cheryl and Jason Blossom as that is the impetus for this show/season. "There needs to be a dead body".
The pilot is about Veronica. She moves to Riverdale, she meets Archie and Betty, she mentions Our Town, and her desire for Archie is established. Compared to Veronica, it takes 8 minutes to mention Jason again and 10 minutes to bring him back into the plot. Then nothing significant happens with him until the very end of the episode! But even after that brief interlude it's only 5 minutes later Veronica is given her first conflict. And by the halfway point, she's thoroughly decimated said conflict.
So, Miss Auteur, why are you bringing this up?
Because Riverdale was supposed to be about Archie. But by the end of the first half of the first episode Veronica is the only character to have a full plot arc and even an epilogue! More importantly, she is immediately woven into the fabric of the town. Even though the Varchie romance is introduced we must remember how the episode is being framed.
If you compare the narration to the writing on Jughead's laptop, it doesn't match up. Cole Sprouse might have read everything on said laptop and it was shortened for time. But, I wouldn't read too much into the discrepancies. I mean, the previous two pages are exact copies of each other lol. And while there might not be numbered pages it's at least four and I'm baffled about what he could have written prior to the opening lines. Also, as a writer, there are the things we think we're going to write and the things we actually do write (For example, I wrote a 16 chapter 100k+ Zack and Cody fanfic, and I didn't know the show existed! The Suite Adult Life). Our thoughts vs our words carry weight to a story. An argument can be made that either position is the most important. Is it better to write out that which we keep so closely guarded so it may live on in infamy? Or are the most profound thoughts those we keep closest to our chests?
Though one little line stands out when I do read it...
"See, the Blossoms had their tendrils wrapped around the entire town - no one wanted to make enemies of them."
Who is the person not wrapped up in their tendrils? And who immediately made an enemy of Cheryl Blossom?
Tumblr media
Bisous, Bisous... Votre Auteur.

I think one of the characters with the most interesting development in Emesis Blue was Soldier.
Even from the start, it's clear he doesn't even like Archibald despite going to great lengths to save him, as evidenced in his line to the Spy where he asks if Archibald had put him up to killing his own men before (which we later learn he has.) The scene where he asks Medic who ordered him to kill the Conagher brothers shows that he really doesn't quite grasp acting outside of orders.
Then at the end of the film in the funeral scene, he directly refuses his orders, only laughing at the lines he's meant to speak. He even pulls the pin out of a grenade before Medic pops out of the coffin and kills Spy, acting for himself and not anyone else. He goes as far as to kill Blutarch, his own higher-up and employer as well.
I think this is part of what makes him standing on the street watching himself in the car in the past really work. It's showing that he's become a stranger to himself, someone completely different.
I really like this movie.

Refering to: this and this post
No surprised that all of the tests/quizzes are not accurate enough and never will be for a lot of reasons like fact that they made by fans and every media character is specifically made to have more extreme personality. But i wanted to analyse the results i got out of all of them. By that i mean finding the one core element that connects them in some way
I got:
Doflamingo
Perona
Chopper
Cavendish
Its not all of them but this four got a theme of infantilism. Very different type of infantilism actually šŸ¤”
Chopper is a baby by nature. He is responsible and smart but his existence is tied to having a little guy persona
Perona tries to play the specific role of a innocent cute gothic girl. Surrounding herself with a brand of childish cuteness that doesn't come as natural to her. There is definitely more to it
Doflamingo is a walking tantrum in a glasses with a fake calmness on top. Puppeteer theming, desire of full control and arrogance. Looks like something that he didn't get over in any way since childhood cus it's a very strong wants and feeling that easily lead to self-destruction
Cavendish is... Cavendish. First introduction tells a lot
And then there is characters that i got with a polar opposite type, like marko and rayleigh.
..... Quizzez make me feel insane, don't trust quizzes just have fun with them, idk, i am not your parent, i can't tell ya what to do

[STM anon says sup]
I feel like people who shit on ST didn't even watched series past (somewhere) first 30 episodes.After that series becomes more serious and plot actually starts. They just hate it because they only see "singing head coming out of toilet".Plus its popular to hate something that everyone hates.
If original skibidi toilet was only contentfarm kind of Elsagate junk,there wouldn't be such big and creative fandom. Fandom doesn't consist only of 5 years old "sigma" iPad kids. There's so much cool fanarts,fanfiction,ocs,animations, even COSPLAY. People on Tumblr are so nice and fun (idk about other social media,I've just seen ppl whining about it on tikki tokky). And all of that came out of SHITPOST. It just so obscure and wonderful at the same time.
After all,it just some guy creating something using GMOD models,sfx and maps. (I'm not actually sure ab that,feel free to correct me) Sorry to write whole essay,just wanted to talk ab this topic. Anyways,cringe is dead. Your drawings for this fandom are amazing.Keep drawing and creating whatever the hell you want,have fun/gen.
<3
Agreed! I fully expected Skibidi Toilet to be an oldschool SFM shitpost like Gorgeous Freeman, but then I was hit with The Plotā„¢
(You're partially correct! SFM is Source Film Maker, a program made by Valve that lets you use their game assets to make animations. ST uses HL2/GMOD assets mostly)
Old SFM never got this mainstream popular before I don't think, I barely bat an eye at the idea of "singing head in a toilet", I've seen weirder SFMs. But for people who didn't grow up watching that type of goofs? They're confused as shit.
Plus, anytime something is popular with kids, or popular in general, it gets posted around everywhere. And because it's everywhere, people that don't care to see it start to hate it (among other stupid reasons).
The fandom is delightful and surprising, I wish Tumblr was more active but that's alright, I still prefer it here than on Twitter
And thank you so muchhhhšŸ„ŗšŸ„ŗ I've been too tired and busy with uni to draw lately but I still wanna draw goofy robots once I got the time and energy for it.
Glad you found my doodles fun, y'all (tumblr) have no idea how much all the nice comments and reblogs motivate me to throw more art at this fandom lmfao

Alright!
This is my second attempt at a blog, my first was @sweet-shining-arceus and if anyone here knows about it, youā€™ll know how it ended.
Moving on now, I realized Iā€™m going to post about whatever Iā€™m currently into at the moment, rather than make the whole blog about one specific character.
That being said, hereā€™s my list of past favorite characters in order from most recent to oldest:
- Hunchback of Notre Dame (Frollo specifically)
- Frasier (Frasier lol)
- The Outsiders (Two-Bit and Dally specifically)
- The Dark Knight (Heath Ledgerā€™s Joker specifically)
- Arcane (Viktor specifically)
- Pokemon (Ghetsis specifically)
- Marvel (Loki, and Tony Stark specifically)
- Hollow Knight (Pale King specifically)
- The Dragon Prince (Aaravos specifically)
- Avatar the Last Airbender (Zuko and Ozai specifically)
- Netflix She-Ra (Hordak and Horde Prime specifically)
- Star Wars (*cough* Darth Vader *cough*)
Those are the main ones anyway. (Keep in mind that some of these are really old. For example Star Wars was from 4th grade) I might come back to them, talk about them, etc., but for the most part they wonā€™t be brought up very often.
Iā€™ll take requests, questions, etc.
I will not respond to and will block anything negative about race, feminism, the lgbtq+ community, etc. THIS IS A SAFE SPACE!!! (I also donā€™t take nsfw or anything like that)
I think thatā€™s all I really wanted to say, other than my last thing:
I am currently juggling 1 fandoms right now, I HAVE NO MOUTH AND I MUST SCREAM
Thank you very much for reading my long-ass shpeal

In 2019, my psych suggested I get a cat as an ESA. I decided (arbitrarily) that I wanted a tortie so I searched for a nearby tortie through all the rescues for months. I finally found one going by jazzy at the time, I took this as a sign because my first pet (a rottie puppy) was named jazzy (he was from New Orleans and 4yo Nisha wanted the name to reflect his heritage lol). Jazzy was a year and a half and had been at her rescue for over a year. Before that, she was on the streets of New Orleans (another sign!!!) and was extremely anti-social. When I went in to have a meet and greet, the attendant seemed v hopeless she kept telling me that people come in to see jazzy, but find her behavior off-putting. I found out that jazzy had a mom (!!!) named jasmine also up for adoption! And jazzy loved her mommy! Jasmine was immediately very friendly and cuddly and sweet and as adorable as her daughter, but she was about 3 years old and no one wanted an old cat šŸ„ŗ. My application for jazzy had been approved, but I asked if I could apply for jasmine as well and they said it would take about 15 minutes to be approved. They were absolutely desperate for these babies to be adopted and ecstatic that I was willing to adopt them together. The entire vibe of everyone on staff shifted and they were telling me about their likes and dislikes and throwing in toys, food, and other supplies for free.
I brought the cats home and jazzy hid under my bed immediately and I barely saw her for three months (about a week in, I decided I was going to call her Sunnata - the urdu word for a state of quiet). I made sure to give her space while trying to balance giving her affection and attention so she knew it was safe. Jasmine (now going be the name Barks Ennui) adjusted immediately and was a huge help in making Sunnata feel comfortable in her new home. After two weeks I noticed that Sunnata started eating meals and coming out from under my bed to go hide behind my toilet or explore the living room when she didn't think anyone was home (she'd scurry as soon as she heard or saw anyone).
I adopted the cats on October 1, 2019. On January 4, 2020 around noon, I went to the kitchen to make myself some lunch and suddenly heard a long, loud, high pitch yell come from behind me. I looked to see if I forgot the kettle on or if I was hearing a siren from an open window. It stopped after I left the kitchen, so I figured the ambulance had passed? Walked back into the kitchen and resumed making my pb&j and almost immediately heard the sound again coming from behind me. I whipped around and almost stepped on Sunnata. She started to scurry, but after I stood still she came up and rubbed against my leg and started yelling again. I tried to pet her and she backed away and walked towards the cabinet that houses cat food. She'd figured out that her food comes from the kitchen and from that day on, any time I walked into the kitchen Sunnata would follow and yell at me for food. It made me so happy that she felt comfortable enough to eat AND ask for food šŸ„¹. A few months after this she started yelling at me outside of the kitchen and I found out that if she flopped over after getting my attention that meant she wanted pets šŸ„¹
I've had the cats for three years and almost four months now. About 6 months ago Sunnata started sleeping on the bed with me, barks, and twiggy (my pup). Everytime I see a new sign that she's feeling more at home, I'm literally cry tears of joy and love for this little baby. I feel so fortunate seeing her personality become more apparent. She's now as much of an attention whore as her mother. All three of the anipals are absolute sluts for pets, brushes, and mouseys. I can't believe how many others missed out on the chance to have these sweet baby angels in their lives šŸ„ŗ but I'm also overwhelmingly grateful because these little heauxs have taught me so many lessons in reparenting myself and fostering healthy relationships. Like they're little fountains of unconditional love šŸ’—

Sunnata likes to stick her lil tongue out to indicate she is in want of affection. Bonus image of the anipals napping in their fave spots next to the sunny window

This was meant to be a quick warm up, but it turned into a comic that Iā€™ve wanted to draw for a while. This is something that is extremely important to me, and I appreciate it if you read it.
A while ago, I heard a story that broke my heart. A family went a cat shelter to adopt. The daughter fell in love with a 3-legged cat. The father straight up said ā€œabsolutely notā€. Because he was missing a leg. That cat was that close to having a family that loved him, but the missing leg held him back. Why?!
Many people have the initial instinct of ā€œnopeā€ when they see an imperfect animal. I get it, but less-adoptable does NOT mean less loveable. 9 out of 10 people will choose a kitten over an adult cat. And those 10% that would get an adult cat often overlook ā€œdifferentā€ animals.
All I want people to do is be open to the idea of having a ā€œdifferentā€ pet in their lives. Choose the pet that you fall in love with, but at least give all of them a fair shot at winning your heart.
Donā€™t dismiss them, they deserve a loving home just as much as any other cat. They still purr, they still love a warm lap, they still play, they still love you. Trust me, next time you are in the market for a new kitty, just go over to that one cat thatā€™s missing an eye and see what heā€™s all about!

okay so hear me out
Tumblr media
if THIS mf is getting therapy, and is complaining about trying to get bloodmoon to stop blatantly trusting people, what are the odds stitchwraith sends him to therapy too..? like, if stitchwraith doesn't want bloodmoon to be a little psychopath out in the wild, but is also sick of him, what if he sends him to therapy?
i mean i genuinely don't know how he would get bloodmoon to go to therapy,, or get him to not slaughter earth & lunar on the spot, but hey it could be possible !
i also don't know how well lunar or earth would react, considering bloodmoon has torn them both to shreds in front of eachother, causing copious amounts of trauma to them both. so no clue how that would go lmao
but its such an interesting idea, it would be such an interesting development to see him (begrudgingly) get some help from someone he hates, i mean earth let the stitchwraith get therapy even though he's a big bad villain (though i know they're not on horrible terms with each other), so why not give bloodmoon a little chance?
though then again the bloodtwins have hurt/traumatized almost everyone in the celestial family already so ehugh--
i prommy this isn't just me adoring bloodmoon and looking for any excuse for him to be in a video (...says the guy who started kicking their feet when bm was mentioned for a minor moment in this vid AHM)
this is all just a stupid rant ignore lmaoao :> (i have no clue what i'm talking about or how to word things hush)
