"The last one left."

Consider: all the Olympians except Apollo fade somewhere far in the future and he's left alone without his family <3 realistically he would be one of the first ones to go because of his domains but let's overlook such futile details for the sake of this scenario

I'm re-reading the lost sisters, and it's crazy to me that Taryn and Locke had their first one night stand together on their THIRD date in Madoc's household.

I'm mad now because Monoma is serving looks but that haircut it giving me something but I don't know what.

i really don’t understand how some fantasy high enjoyers don’t see the very obvious metaphor for aromantic denial within baron from the baronies in sophomore year. baron is a nightmare creature that came into existence because riz lied about having a partner so his friends wouldn’t bother him about it? he made up baron when his friends were all talking about the people they wanted to kiss? how is that not aromantic to some people. maybe it’s more obvious to me because i HAVE been in denial about being aro and made up crushes for myself and tried to pretend i had them. just because i felt it was a thing i needed to do, that it was a thing that EVERYONE had to have a crush and that it was normal. how do you see the confrontation between baron and riz as anything other than accepting aromanticism. this thing, his nightmares personified, says to him “the years will go by, and everyone will find someone that matters more to them than you.” as an aro person yeah that’s gotta be up there with the top ten nightmares.

how do you look at this interaction and NOT see an aromantic boy.

(for further elaboration, yes i am aware that aromantic people CAN want to kiss others and hell yeah power to you, i’m just saying that it’s a common thing to not care about kissing/not want to do it)

and another thing with with the fhigh fandom is that like, some people will go through every loophole they can to try and pair up riz anyways. aromantic people CAN be in relationship, of course, but why would people take this specific boy, who has repeatedly expressed distaste in being in a relationship, and ship him with other people. especially since fabian and riz is a common ship. is it because they’re best friends? is it because people value romance over friendship? oh they’re such close friends they must have a thing! it’s so stupid. why is it, that when a character is asexual (riz, being confirmed asexual), people respect that. they don’t often go “oh yeah i know they’re asexual but asexual people can have sex! or want to have sex! it’s a spectrum!”. (that is true, btw, ace people can have sex and all that. but it’s different when allosexual people do it to try and just make up excuses to not treat asexual characters like they’re asexual.) why do i mostly see it done with aromantic people? one of this boy’s biggest fear is people pairing up and leaving him behind. how do you see that as a boy who WANTS to be in a relationship? do you think he WANTS to pair up as well?

just because it’s not been outwardly confirmed and directly said “riz gukgak is aromantic” doesn’t mean that it’s not true, y’know? there’s subtext, there’s symbolism, there’s metaphors, there’s DIRECT REFERENCES TO RIZ NOT LIKING ROMANCE! i don’t really know how people can see him as alloromantic

anyways thank you for coming to my ted talk, this is sam (confirmed aroace) signing off or something

(also some of my non-aro, romance enjoying friends have confirmed that the aro implications are very obvious so clearly it’s not just an aro brain thing to understand)

this is so niche but maybe there are about 2 people in the world that would appreciate this crossover of my two obsessions: tma and bsd

gertrude robinson and agnes montague are giving soukoku

do you see the vision? no? don’t worry i’ll elaborate

(spoilers i guess for both)

gertrude robinson is so obviously dazai it hurts

in tma gertrude is THE character and in bsd tha would be dazai. they are both the most powerful characters in a way and the ones that are dealing the cards

a lot of the time dazai just kinda *knows* things and the theory is that it is linked to his ability and the existence of multiple realities, whether that’s true or not it is kinda similar to how beholding works

dazai’s nullification ability and gertrude’s life mission to stop the rituals, idk there’s a parallel here. there’s also the fact that gertrude made sure most entities cannot affect her and dazai’s ability protects him from other ability users

they are both ruthless in their pursuit of their goals, and their attitude towards other people is the same, they are not above manipulating and using others to achieve results

both pretty lonely people, even if they can work with others, no one really knows them or their plans

gertrude’s relationship with jonah and dazai’s relationship with mori, not one to one of course but come on

oh and gertrude’s apparent incompetence which turns out to be actually on purpose and *very important* in saving the world and dazai’s seemingly nonsensical actions that then turn out to be crucial elements of his big plan that he had from the very beginning

i would die on that hill, gertrude robinson IS dazai osamu, just less suicidal thoughts and more explosives. and definitely dazai would smash it as the archivist while gertrude would smash it at whatever it is that’s going on in bsd these days

now agnes montague and chuuya nakahara (i’ll admit this one is not as perfect but still)

this one is easy but let’s get this out of the way, both are ginger

agnes being created by the cult as the embodiment of desolation, and chuuya being made into a walking singularity, both of them being created by others as some sort of experiments, stripped of their agency

arahabaki, god of calamity, embodiment of destruction -> desolation, unthinking and cruel destruction

anger issues

and then we have *the bond*, the only thing that’s stopping agnes from completing the ritual of destruction is gertrude, while the only thing that prevents chuuya from destroying everything around him including himself is dazai

it just writes itself man

WHAT

HELP???????

[made-my-peace-with-all-the-bad]

Sincerest sympathies extended to my irl friends who told me to get the Airbuds app so we can look at what the others playing

I only listen to the outsiders with the occasional other sad song thrown in there

[chefbeepo]

Megatron said 'fuck the police' and minimus said 'fuck megatron' and they both took it too literally

[lazynickname]

I was blessed with a vision

[perplexedjokist]

kryptonians are ambidextrous.

they also have a harder time putting words to feelings since most of the time their feelings are obvious enough to others (very expressive even when they don't want to be)

because I said so

I hope this isnt too weird, but i adore the way you play with sesames gender expression and how soft and gently he is, especially as a male au ra. i made myself a pink catgirl, but shes (in her out of game design) tall and buff and extremely butch in a way that i havent seen many other female miqotes styled, so i just really like seeing the way youve characterized sesame :3 hes very pretty and unique! and in general i think youve done a wonderful job of creating the characters of sesame, kaiien and your other ocs!

Oh thank you!!! He’s def very gender envy for me… heh and I’m happy you like how I explore it through him!

But also hello 👁️👁️ butch cat girl… u speak my language…
