torn between not being able to trust goyim to not be antisemitc anymore unless they really prove me otherwise and going "I guess we'll get along" when they find out I'm Israeli and still treat me like a human being

The feeling after watching a srk movie in 2023.

Pathaan had me all excited and amped up because adrenaline rush. Love my mission impossible flicks just for the fun of it.

Jawan had me restless because I just wanted it in my brain. I don't care what anyone says about it being a mixture of 10 films, I loved it and I'll always stand by it.

Dunki has me in a limbo. The joy of watching a movie is there but there's an underlying sadness that we don't see the actor srk this often, and I know he's good in all his works, but you understand that his stardom takes the front seat these days.

What comes next and when I don't know but I pray that he plays all these varieties as long as he can. Please just keep doing movies Shah. Please.

occasionally I have glimpses into both the teaching and the life of Maria once she calms down and is not fueled by panic and it’s very powerful

i kind of cant believe how infrequently death note and hannibal are compared to eachother like the comparisons almost seem to obvious to me as to not be worth saying. maybe its cuz most of the intersection between the fandoms is nbc hannibal only and i feel like when u compare red dragon and silence of the lambs its a bit more obvious but like. yea. one post i saw someone comparing them was like "hmm there isnt anything rly like death note i mean hannibal's sorta close but hannibal is more abt blurring the line between investigator and killer" or something like that an i cant stop thinking abt it because like. thats SO insane to me like HOW is death note not abt that. again it might be more obvious when u also look at the musical as it makes the line blurring between L and light really explicit but like?? even in the show like?? ofc it feels a lot different because light is definitely a villain protagonist but L basically explicitly saying that the reason he can profile kira so easily is bcz he has a lot of traits in common with him? also the way they both think of other people as pawns and means to an end. like light keeping 50 or however many criminals just on reserve in case he needs to kill without having access to media. using criminals to experiment w what the death note can do. compared to L literally broadcasting a man dying on live tv in his stead to prove a point. also right before L died he was literally going to use the death note to execute a criminal to test if the death note rules were real. like these behaviors just do not seem unlike eachother at all. they both have insane egos and misguided faith in the criminal justice system. they r fucking mirror twins of eachother man like. at least to the extent that will and hannibal were if not more so

Something about me is that. I'm just a teensy bit a control freak

SLO'S DYNAMIC GALORE!

EVENT . everyone is like a lego piece: despite being of different shapes and sizes, we have commonalities that allow us to connect with others. so the question is... if you want achieve a certain structure, who would be your best choice?

after finishing a gift for my friend (who i did an anon analysis for, and you can receive an anon analysis from @paimonial-rage), i thought it'll be cool to try a different approach.

in this event, you are to send me a description of your personality and one dynamic (see under the cut). i will give you a genshin character that fits the dynamic with you, and if inspired, might propose some tropes. please read more under the cut for terms and formatting of your ask.

dynamics

complementary opposites (you lack something i have; i lack something you have)

surface opposites (we may seem like we're different but upon learning more about the other we are actually pretty similar)

peas in a pod (we understand each other fundamentally. we're not exactly mirrors but i know you as i know myself and vise versa)

(adapted from this post, if you're curious).

terms

i am opening 3 slots, preferably 1 per dynamic. this is because i do not want to overwhelm myself as this is quite new. more slots may open in the future!

friends can freely submit. the 3 slots does not include them.

submission period is from 28 feb to 4 march. i will announce which are the asks i'll be writing for after the submission period.

please give me a month or more to write this as i am swarmed with other responsibilities and work.

asks that do not follow the format will not be entertained. see below.

accepted: @andromeda-nova-writing + @yoiieczwhynot

formatting of your ask

it's simple. please just include a description of yourself, preferably paragraphs long, and your ONE dynamic.

some things that you can include (you don't need to include everything):

your personality (i.e. how you react to certain situations, what are your values)

interests and why you like them

what you think are your strengths / weaknesses

what other people say are your strengths / weaknesses

traits that you aspire to have / who do you want to be?

traits that you currently have / who are you currently?

what not to give:

your sexuality (my reply focuses on dynamics, not romantic pairings)

your physical appearance (keep ur privacy hahaha)

your age or pronouns (does not affect your match at all. save that space for things that matters please)

anything too traumatic (please do not trauma dump)

MBTI / enneagram / horoscope, etc... (i won't use it anyways)

it's probably the sunnier weather that's doing stuff to my brain to make me more optimistic but it's so interesting having a brain that craves a lot of self-fulfillment to the point where I can move past some hang-ups around perfection by going "oh I really wanna do that though" and then I do it well because researching how to do it right is also a rewarding part of the process

[mylowmilo]

You know those rats in the studies where they’re trapped and not given any way to get out while subjected to negative stimuli and they start feeling helpless. And then they’re put in a situation where they actually have some power and can pull a lever or press a button but they still feel helpless and don’t even try.

That’s me

About the random chest that flashes over MK in the memory scroll:

I‘m pretty sure it‘s Azure. You can see the tips of his two… loose ponytails? (The hair that frames his face anyway) hanging down from his shoulders. Later, in his emperor form, we can also see he has the defined musculature.

And since Wukong was reliving all of his regrets in the scroll, the biggest ones flashing on the screen in that scene, one after another, it would make sense for Azure to appear.

Both because Wukong betrayed the brotherhood and lost his friends, and also because- well, Azure was the main antagonist of the season. It would make sense for him to be of importance for Wukong in this scenario especially.

I can‘t believe you failed to identify one of your favorite characters by chest alone. Smh. Fake fan, I think I have to unfollow 😔

(/j)

So. I had typed out this whole answer pointing out how absolutely shredded the silhouette was compared to every character in the show, and then I had this really good point, like (quoting my og post):

"And it's not that you're wrong, it would make complete sense for Azure to appear as part of the memory flashes—but then why not show his face? Why not make it obvious that it's Azure? Why be this weird about it, and have it framed so that when it fades it reveals MK? You gotta think why the writers and storyboarders would make those kinda decisions."

But then. But then I realized anon.

There's a line. Like Azure's fur color line

BUT HERE'S THE OTHER THING ANON. AZURE'S PAST OUTFIT (Presumably what he would have been wearing when this memory took place) IS ALSO DIFFERENT:

So I legitimately don't know. At the end of my og post, I had written a pretty funny joke: "Anon don't challenge my ability to identify my lego characters by chest alone ever again", but you were right to. I have no clue who this silhouette's identity is. I can't identify them off of pecs alone. Is it Azure? Maybe! Is it MK? Maybe! (Like, the fact that we get the pecs flash, and then later MK is revealed to have a war form that he has had NO prior training in makes me question some things. Like most of his abilities MK's learned to use, he just does it, and it's all weird.) Like:

BUT I DON'T KNOW.
