#me to jk: i cannot keep defending you

[charmac]

[meme of that one fish from SpongeBob voice]

Wait you people actually DON'T genuinely dislike Rob as a person (as opposed to as an artist) I thought that WASN'T a joke

/gen (i do genuinely dislike him lol I just tolerate him cuz he's decent at his job and isn't actively causing harm, at least not on the scale of SOME ppl (eg jkr))

This ask is confusing to me, ngl I don't know Spongebob very well so idk the tone, but I don't really think this is a "you people" kind of thing here, just my opinion(s), which you really can't lump into the majority of the fandom (or really anyone else at all)

I'm pretty sure when most people in this fandom speak about liking/disliking RCG they do mean as creatives, where the "like" comes from the positives they've given us with their projects (mostly Sunny) and the "dislike" is the negatives they've given or contributed creatively. To a smaller extent people have decided if they like/dislike RCG as people based on their personalities and the opinions they've shared on the Podcast, and to another extent what they see from or hear about them on socials..

My feelings are muddied because of my personal experiences, which is funny because I've seen quite a few people express that's why they never want to meet these guys, and I think that's totally legit because having met Rob and had conversations with him, my perspective is forever a little warped (and don't ask about Glenn or Charlie cos that's truly fucked)

But for the most part, yes people generally dislike Rob as a person but tolerate him for what he birthed (Sunny) and does creatively, lol, that's the general fandom opinion and similar to mine, which I thought I had expressed but maybe I didn't do it properly? So to be clear: most of my "like" for Rob lies in what he has done and given us in Sunny (and to an extent Mythic Quest, as well) and most of my "dislike" lies in... most else he's doing right now

last of the big five yall!!!!

happy late fourth of july! remember to keep boycotting, speak out and listen to palestinians, the people of congo, native americans, queer/trans people and women currently being oppressed this independence day because america fucking sucks!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🔥🔥🔥

here are a couple good places to donate! please remember to do your own research and take care of each other, it’s getting scary out here.

ohhhh nimdok, where to start with you….

i have been dreading doing him because he pisses me off so bad but i actually had some decent fun with him :D. designing him and branching out farther away from his canon self was nice, but im not touching his backstory or personality really, that stays about the same for me in my head.

speaking of whichhh! like benny, i understand how the game makers had a short amount of time to fit an entire character arc of an old man undoing his deeply internalized racism/xenophobia/ableism in a singular short scenario, but unlike benny i actually somehow like his better?? nimdok had a lot more to get over (well not saying being a dickhead murderer isn’t a lot but 😭) and i enjoyed seeing him actually help out the people he would’ve previously turned in. it still feels a little hollow/unrealistic because again, he’s been like this his whole life, but considering how much AM takes him away from the group to (most likely) psychologically torture him for his actions he’s probably had a bit of a revelation.

doing his scenario was unfortunately funny at times because of the strange way we had to go about redeeming him with the golem guy😭giving him a smooch caught me off guard but ykw? i’ll take it for being able to kill mengele like immediately afterward. also speaking of whichhhh…

i would go into more detail about nimdok and mengeles relationship to give it some depth because god i love me some queers, but that is??? a real fucking guy???? a real life monster???? im less than comfortable picturing the fucker in my mind, much less giving him depth with a character who i also don’t like. like why ship ur essentially OC with a REAL LIFE N/AZI??? just another one of the reasons harlan elision creeps me out. (if that just pissed you off google search him s/a-ing 2 people, marrying a 19 year old when he was in his 40s and defending a child r/apist i really don’t feel like arguing with you. the guy was a horrible fucking person and he makes me sick, i just like this franchise.)

i cannot cough up anymore thoughts about this fella pls forgive me; these past couple days have been rough on my 3 brain cells. AM will for sure be next and after that fully rendered/decked out full bodies are in order!! so look out for that:]]]] i may also start posting some art fight things since i was just complaining about the lag a post or so ago☺️ jk ily artfight. team seafoam lets goo

ok i love u guys!!! if u have any requests for me drop a comment or an ask, and thank you so much for the continued support on my art❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ lots of links on this post but one more quick reminder to take a look at my commission page if you’d like!!! yolanda is still in the shop because they cannot figure out what’s wrong with her :(

have a good night friends 🫶

[caslyra]

Please don't expect consistent (and continuous) posting

(Look after yourselves!)

Hi!

I feel the need to make one of those intro posts because recently a few blogs started following me that seem to be more into the fanon interpretation of things, and I don't want anybody to get the wrong ideas about what to expect from this blog.

About me... I'm 29, she/her, pan/bi (I don't care which label), and demi (which took me really long to figure out).. I used to be a judge but dropped out because of a myriad of reasons but mainly because of... well, depression. I cannot, for the life of me, remember how many letters there are in the alphabet, I love carrots but they make me nauseous, and my socks are more holes than fabric.

So... let's move to the important stuff.. JK sucks, and parts of the canon suck too - like the house elf stuff and her naming "skills" which are very telling, her fat shaming, and the anti-trans shit that is even written into the original source material. But for the most part, the characterization isn't one of them. So on this blog, I will defend the canon version of characters, flaws and all.

To make myself clear: hc characters as trans and writing characters as gay etc is great and I fully support that. What I mind, however, is the heteronormative, mysoginistic cliches we keep seeing under the guise of 'progressive' queer ships. If you not only change their gender or their height but also their personalities so that they fit heteronormative stereotypes that's problematic. Same goes for the casual racism going on in this fandom. Portraying non-white people as huge, buff guys with anger-issues is - you guessed it - problematic!

What to expect from this blog:

Me applauding the many great people out there. Do you even know how great you are???

Me geeking out, especially about the characters and ships I love most

Me writing long-ass metas at two in the morning because that one post was the final straw.

Me ranting and contradicting myself.

Nuance - or at least, I try. But I'm just a person with biases, and I read the books through the lens of my own experiences, so yeah. And of course there's always a range, even when sticking to canon.

(I say I care about nuance, but you'll find me swaying to full-force apologism the next second - get used to it, I'm a hypocrite).

Some writing. Here's my ao3. I'm also working on a long wolfstar fic. I plan on starting to post it before I turn 30 (which will be in mid-December).

Remus/Sirius will always be my OTP - canon personalities - dysfunctional mess and all. But I do enjoy a few other ships and I love so many characters!

I can get very passionate about fictional characters, but I'm an adult, and I know they're fictional. And I believe I can take criticism, so if there's anything on your mind... Hit the "ask" button or reach out to me. Reaching out is always fine anyhow!

It's always my personal opinion I'm talking about; I don't think I'm some kind of hp authority, but that goes without saying.

What not to expect from this blog:

Art (I reblog, of course, but you don't want me to draw, believe me).

Dumbledore hate / Remus hate (don't confuse with criticism, I'm all for criticism). No ATYD hate either. I have my issues with it, but it's not the author's fault it has become the fandom's new rulebook.

Me dumbing down James and Sirius, etc.

Me abandoning James and Peter. But, sorry not sorry (and wolfstar aside), I will keep pushing my "Remus and Sirius (also) were close friends at Hogwarts" agenda

Jegulus/Slytherin skittles stuff. If that's your thing, that's fine, but it isn't mine.

Me keeping it short.

I'm always happy to discuss stuff! :)

Most important information for last, right? If I speak ill about Remus, it is always with the most love possible. I keep saying Sirius is my favorite character, but he has a lot of fans out there, and avoidant, self-loathing, passive-aggressive, manipulative, ruthless, but also smart, brave, kind, loyal, empathetic, thoughtful and selfless (yes, you read that correctly) Remus holds a special place in my heart.

When Jungkook steps out of the bakery, snacks and beverages in his hands, he pauses for just a moment. It was easy to escape the cashier's conversation. Easy to soothe the worries she'd fallen into it.

What's not so easy is watching that stranger so close to you, sitting on the bench, laughing at whatever you're saying.

Jungkook isn't necessarily the jealous type – as long as the debate doesn't shift to damn perilla leaves or you don’t end up naked in someone else's bed, there's not all that much that will drive him up the wall.

But tonight is reserved for the two of you. Any other disturbance has no place here.

So he shakes his head, clicking his tongue, scoffs as he steps next to you slowly.

When you notice, your laughter pauses, and you look between the men before you enthusiastically introduce, "Ah, Kook! This is Taemin. Just found out he went to the same college as we did."

"Really?" Jungkook questions, squinting his eyes. "Never seen you there."

"I graduated years ago," Taemin says with a tender smile; sweet enough to melt angels' hearts.

"Ah. How old are you?"

"Twenty-nine. Why?"

"Just asking."

"Uhm, in any case," you say, getting on your feet. You don't think Taemin's anyhow harmful; but the animosity between them is palpable. Or at least from Jungkook's side. "This is my boyfriend Jungkook."

You laugh nervously, and then add, "Was nice to meet you. We'll be going then."

"It was nice talking to you, too," Taemin says softly, unbothered as hell; the opposite of Jungkook whose irritation swims to the forefront of his eyes.

Only when you've left his periphery and you've linked your arm with Jungkook, do you realise just how much the picture of Taemin and you annoyed him.

Stoic silence accompanies you for half a mile, no matter how many times you thank him for the food, or compliment the town, or crack a horrible joke.

And then, you break.

"Are you mad at me?"

He shakes his head. "No. I'm not mad at you."

"But you're mad."

"I... no, it's fine."

"But," you start, tapping his knuckles, "your fists are pretty firm. And your jaw is clenched."

"I'm fine, angel."

“I don’t care about Taemin, by the way.”

“Okay. He’s too old for you anyway,” he suddenly says.

“Huh?”

“Nothing.”

You argue, “You said you’re fine.” 

“Yeah. I’m honestly okay.”

"Or jealous." He grants you one ominous glance, and you widen your eyes, immediately defending, "I'm just saying. You don't have a reason to be jelly, though."

"Why's that?"

"Because," you start, halting your steps. You look into his eyes, and smile with a slightly tilted head. "I'm yours. I told you and... I meant it."

You're not sure where your courage is coming from. Day and night, you question his feelings, constantly wondering what he might be thinking of you. Or how often you occupy his mind at all.

That you're soothing his worries now, vowing your undying loyalty to him is a bigger step than you realise.

But it does the trick. The crease between his eyebrows relaxes. He blinks at you.

"It's not... you're not who I'm mad at," he admits, "that was true. I'm more pissed at myself for overthinking, you know? Now I know how you felt when we spoke about Nara... The ache in your eyes, I could see it."

You're taken aback – not quite expecting for him to mention that day. Or Nara. Or to feel anyhow similarly to how you hurt back then.

But you don't understand.

"But it was just a guy from college," you assure.

"That's not the problem, really... I just. Do you–" He licks his lips, chuckling about his own idiocy. "Do you ever talk to other men and think how easy life could be with them? Like Seokjin. Do you ever feel like it would've been easier with him?"

"What's it?"

"Just. Life. Love. Your future."

Crazy.

To hear him voice his worries like that.

He's right... it feels like the conversation weeks ago. Back then, you wondered whether a childhood friend like Nara could've been the easier choice. How you could compete against her.

"No," you tell him firmly, placing a hand under his ear, "do you? Like, ever regret being with me like that."

"No." His answer comes just as fast – but he still looks conflicted. "Never. But it scares me to see you laughing with someone else. Not because I doubt where your heart lies, but... 'cause I want to feel right for you."

Your heart pounds in your chest. He's never talked about whatever lingers between you so blatantly. It feels like a breakthrough moment.

"Is that why we're both here? You want to feel like you're right for me. Or... want to confirm that you're enough to make me happy."

"I..." He waits. Looks at you so softly, it hurts. "It's not just that. Tonight belongs to us. Tonight wasn't supposed to be about Taemin, or any other man I deem a better fit for you."

"It still belongs to us," you tell him, moving closer. "Taemin, or Nara... none of them matter, Jungkook."

He doesn't speak.

You look down to his hand, tangling your fingers.

Move your eyes back to him slowly, eyebrows raised in question. He opens his mouth, nervous and blinking. When he doesn’t speak, you ask, “Jungkook?”

“I need to tell you something.”

– and you know the rest... 💕

DHP!JK

the ride on the way back home is quiet, but you have so much to say, so much on your mind. you’re sure yours and hyejin’s friendship is over and thinking about jungkook’s harsh and untrue words only deepens your embarrassment, but that’s not the worst part. the worst part was when he looked hyejin in the eye and said: “This friendship of yours is over now.” he didn’t look for your approval—he told hyejin off, grabbed you, and walked away. you couldn’t even bring yourself to look at hyejin on your way out but you could hear what she was thinking: ‘she’s so pathetic.’

so, here you are cursing your boyfriend out for embarrassing you the way he did. except, it’s all in your head since the look on his face loudly exclaims how pissed off he is. you thought it wasn’t a big deal—when jungkook goes out with his friends you never question him. you never question his intentions or his claims of ‘knowing what’s best for you.’ you question none of it. you decide to take a page out of hyejin’s book and say something. “jungkook? that…that wasn’t nice. i understand that i’m pregnant and-and you want to monitor me but you didn’t have to treat hyejin like that”

this is your way of ‘taking a stand,’ but jungkook scoffs and keeps driving. you’re in big trouble when you get home and something tells you he isn’t going to be too merciful. pregnant or not, you still need a reminder of just who is in control and the center of your world. this is his world, remember? you just so happen to be living on it.

~🫧

Once you both get home he storms into the house, following after you and he slams the door shut, the cringey noise takes you by surprise but Jungkook thinks that the door should be the least of your concern right now.

“Sit. Down.” He speaks through gritted teeth stopping you in your tracks and he points to the couch, you look at him hesitantly but nonetheless, you listen to him and sit down on the couch.

Jungkook folds his arms over to his chest, he takes a look at your face and it almost tugs at his heartstrings because you look nervous and a little disappointed

But, his anger is definitely clouding his judgment right now and he doesn’t think that he did anything wrong

“Now. You will listen to me and you will not interrupt me until I’m done talking and then I will listen to you and I won’t interrupt you. Okay?”

He takes a moment to compose himself as he tries to let go of his anger by exhaling out loud

“Look, I have no interest in monitoring you. What do i have a problem with is that you didn’t even bother to text me or call me.” He begins.

There is a lot of tension.

“So I want to ask you yn. What the fuck is wrong with you? WHAT THE FUCK— WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU? If you could’ve just messaged me or called me this mess could’ve been avoided, but you have to act so fucking dumb.”

Hello no, he cannot control his anger

He’s snarling as he thinks of your new friend

“That woman? She’s not good for you. You better listen to me because I am not in the mood for you to defend her. I hate how she was literally manipulating you against me, even I haven’t done that.”

He gets down on his knees, right in front of you

“And baby… do you know what was the worst part?” he gives you a cruel smile.

He takes a break between speaking and just stares at you.

“The worst part was that you didn’t defend me once I was waiting for you to speak up like you do in front of me, but you didn’t. You have disappointed me, and now you will be punished.” He growls.

He laughs, “no i’m not gonna take your phone away because that’s just childish as fuck.” His hands grab your legs and he begins to take your skirt off.

“Now.. be a good girl and don’t struggle. He spreads your legs, I’m gonna torture you with my tongue.” Once he’s finishing his sentence his hands are on your panties.

He slides them down, but you don’t dare to stop him.

“Yknow? What’s the difference between you and me when it comes to our friends? I tell you every single thing about them and whatever we talk about. But you don’t, you’re becoming secretive and I don’t like it.” He speaks in a dangerously low voice.

Jungkooks not wrong.

“Now, I’m gonna teach you a lesson. You will never forget. You better understand that I am the center of your world. I will teach you that I will remind you that.”

And he dives his tongue straight into your heat, his tongue immediately attacking your clit, his hands spreading your legs wider as the room falls silent.

Only your shocked breathless gasps can be heard.

HII

Okay so first of all(to your disappointment im sure)/jk chuuya actually wasnt on my brain during the exam😔

Also also

OMG

Send denial chan my way

Ill frick them up! (with my words and intellectual insults i learned from instagram😭;becauseee i cannot fight for shittt)

Also also

🪷 WHAT IN THE CINNAMON TOAST FUCK WAS THAT(good)

And lemme say i would neverrrr condone that behavior irl,

BUT HOLY SHIZZBIT FICTION IS A LAWLESS LAND COS OOHHHH LAWDDDD THAT WAS ACTUALLY LOW KEY/(very high key)

HOT AS FUCKK AND THE COURT TALK???? GURL I KNOW NEXT TO NOTHING ABT THE LAW(criminal law i mean😭)

BUT AHHHHHHHH

ALSO YOUR ADDITION KILLED ME.

He would absolutely be smug as he leaves you fuckin unraveled!

Also imagine if they actually go with the case (chuuyas lowkey pissed, but the sx was good so he’s also not that mad but he also is cos well…you kinda lied)

But then in court your arguments and performance (LIKE THE THING THE DEFENDANT DOES TO PUT THE BAD GUY IN JAIL) isnt nearly enough to convict chuuyas subordinate.

So after the trial,he pulls you into an old unoccupied office and fuckin rails you hard as a little thank you☺️🫶

Imagine him fucking you dumb while his breathy voice plays in your ear, “had me fooled for a second doll…didnt think you’d *thrust* hold up your *thrust* end of the *thrust* bargain~”

And when you’re so out of if as he says “what do you have to say for yourself defendant?”

And you wrap your arms around his neck before saying, “sorry your honour id like to plead not guilty by reason of insanity” as you kiss him hard,his grip on your hips tightening as you two make out.

The law books in the shelves around you watch you in horror but honestly,right then you feel too good to give a fuck about the law. The only law that matters is the law of attraction and by God are you attracted to this walking weapon of a man~

(I hope i made a nice little contribution to the horny bandwagon🫡)

Also as always,slay safe and stay safe and may your exams go better too🥲

-🧀

NOOOO, CHUUYA WASN’T ON YOUR MIND? DISHONOR. DISHONOR ON YOU, DISHONOR ON YOUR COW—

Denial-Chan has been spamming me with nice silly lil messages cause they’re in love with me :)

THE “What do you have to say for yourself, defendant?” WHILE REARRANGING YOUR GUTS PART IS KILLING ME CAUSE I JUST VISUALLY HEARD THAT IN MY BRAIN IN HIS VOICE AHHHH 😳

Also thank you, but I have a deep feeling in my girl balls that I’m going to fail my exams LMAO <3 Keep on w/ your studies though. Fuck that college up (unspecified whether I mean sexually or violently).

[dead-loch]

my roommate and I keep having convos about this but I feel like the disconnect between “older” and younger trans people (and queer people in general) is so fucking vast. (Maybe this is just the normal disconnect you feel as you get older).

I just do not have the energy anymore to write people off completely when they do something shitty, which is like, a favourite past time of angry young people (I’m not saying this to chastise; I’m saying it because I remember feeling that same way). it’s always black or white, the person is immediately the enemy and everyone else who likes them joins the ranks. it’s fucking exhausting.

I’ve been in the middle of these like crusades where people are trying their hardest to get someone kicked out of a community for making a mistake. I’ve been on the board of arts orgs that had to bring in a mediator because 2 people had an issue with a board member and refused to accept: an apology, the board member being made to step down, AND a full recounting to the public of what was done on our end and their end. they aren’t happy with any of that because they want to punish, punish, punish. Note that the issue was not, like, life threatening or dangerous.. the board member had just said something they didn’t like and to be fair we agreed that it wasn’t okay and literally took them off the board as soon as they contacted us. But that wasn’t enough.

(These same people are also protesting against police brutality and calling for the defunding of police. In case you don’t realise this already, moving away from our current system of “justice” will mean having to find empathy within yourself for people who’ve done horrific things. If you don’t believe in punitive justice, you need to be applying it to your actual life, too, not just yelling about it on socials. Some of you are truly not ready for a system that doesn’t value dehumanising human lives.)

I spent my teenage years and young adulthood so unbelievably angry and hurt and I don’t want to keep poisoning myself like that anymore (I’m not always successful in this). we grew up with depictions of trans people being jokes or worse 99% of the time. if we didn’t watch media that was problematic we would literally just watch nothing. my roommate is in her 40s and came out about a decade ago. she’s a trans woman who will never (and doesn’t want to) “pass” as a cis woman. she cannot afford meds or surgery. neither can I. We spent so much time hiding that it’s almost impossible to be who we could have been, had we had the freedom we’d have today.

We both used to call out transphobia in every piece of fking media we saw (including calling out celebs and public figures and raging against them) and it’s goddamn exhausting. There’s a lot of value in the strides we’ve made to stop glorifying actual monsters (murderers, rapists, etc) but someone signing some bullshit letter which has zero impact on real life is not on my radar.

Let’s take JK Rowling as an example. Not only has she made it her mission to be as transphobic as she possibly can be, but she WILL NOT STOP. She will not apologise, she will not change her views. She’s proven that over years. This to me is nowhere near the same level as someone saying something once in an interview or adding their name to some disgusting letter that hundreds of other idiots signed. JK Rowling is malicious in the way she does these things and is doing them to purposefully harm others. There are others who are like this as well, but it’s far from the majority of people.

I’m also seeing WAY too many people also go way too far the other way, where they’ll defend a piece of media like their life depends on it instead of admitting when there’s problematic depictions, or admitting when the creators or actors or whoever is being harmful. Like that person saying “keep my show out of your mouth”…. you realise it’s just a fucking tv show, right? And like if you didn’t engage, there’d be nothing for the “other side” to rage at? And that by saying that shit you’re valuing your tv show over the concerns of actual human beings? There’s no excuse for this behaviour.

Idk man. I think I’ve just learned to pick my battles (again, I fail at this sometimes too) and I don’t understand anymore why people want to poison themselves by engaging in behaviour that pits them against others. Most of the time they’re pitting themselves against people with whom they have more in common than not, and they’re doing it at the expense of focusing on real issues.

To bring it back to the art org I was a board member on, the experience where we had to bring in a mediator killed the org. The founder (an Iranian queer woman) had just lost family to covid and these people kept coming at her again and again and not respecting boundaries or feeling an ounce of empathy for what they were shovelling on her. The org itself was a tiny music festival which brought musicians I’d never heard of to our city and specifically served marginalised communities. The board member these people didn’t like was a queer Vietnamese rapper. So instead of this tiny org getting to flourish and do some good, in-fighting completely killed it over something that could have been resolved by people sitting down face to face.

I know I’m really rambly but I hope this makes some kind of sense.

I just think so many people are fighting the wrong enemies. In that… they aren’t even enemies. You’re fighting people who could change if you weren’t being such a fucking asshole about it (because someone being an asshole isn’t super conducive to me rethinking my position and doesn’t make it easy to say “you’re right, but I also think ____”)

You’re all seeing people as irredeemable when you need to see them as being capable of change, which they are. Probably not while they’re being told they should kill themselves though.

hi, im going to rant about my hunter and viney brotp headcanons to cope with the end

ill put it under a read more because it could get long

viney was the one who kept in contact with him after ASIAS. i always felt like he had to keep in contact with someone and viney felt like the right choice

she demanded pictures of flapjack in exchange for giving her emotional damage

now they send each other pictures of their respective palismen being cute

viney definitely gives him puddles updates because how funny she knows it is

hunter only manages to be a little annoyed

after viney got a little more comfortable around him, she talks to him about her friends and how the others on the team are doing

she does encourage him to reach out to at least someone else and it ends up being skara

after intial and warranted distrust, she and hunter eventually come together to write ruler's reach fanfiction

viney: yeah skara's great! she's been helping a lot with the animals here she's so good with bard magic like wow she's so pretty too she's so smart she's very fun to hangout with and puddles likes her too-

hunter:

hunter: yeah

jerbo and barcus kinda freak out over the fact that viney is regularly texting her kidnapper but she waves them off

barcus and jerbo: WHY are you texting him, he's literally the GOLDEN GUARD

viney: I Suddenly Cannot Hear Anything

its even more funny when you realize that Jerbo is canonically anti gov/Belos

and the fact that that all 3 of them despise covens

regardless, viney really comes to enjoy his company and vice versa

it's nice for like 2 weeks or smth

then it's just. not

hunter ghosts viney for a week which causes the witch to worry. things weren't perfect but it was all starting to get better

the illusion covenhead shows up at the end of that same week and who does her and skara see knocked out? Hunter.

needless to say Viney easily knocks out the scouts carrying him and take him back to the healing homeroom

i hc that viney didn't defend him because well. the whole kidnapping situation wasn't just kidnapping. being forced to join a coven, her palisman taken away?

she forgives him because he shows that he regrets what he did and took action to let them go but trust? that takes time

but that trust is earned by beating the shit out of coven scouts with her

after kicking the Emperor's Coven out, hunter ends up living with viney for a week

she was the only one he kept contact with after ASIAS. plus her family isn't quite as well known or as seen as gus' dad is and willow did show up at eda's petrification

workout buddies! viney is buff as hell for a reason

hunter trains viney on how to fight. at least what he can teach in like a week

actually, viney being a healer and beastkeeper means being more on the defense, like hunter

at the end of the day, viney is more than willing to say she cares about hunter

they both care. SO MUCH

like not even just about each other but just in general. they're so naturally gentle and kind, with wildlife and others and are so willing to do anything in order to keep those important to them safe

like. UGH /pos

anyways that's all I got, thanks for reading

what if you were to... ask me about grimwalker hcs?? haha jk... unless?

[meandmyechoes]

Kingohger ep24

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERICA~!!!!

LOTS happened IRL and I'm near my fking limit. dpeending on kingoh to keep me going at this point

big big shame the kyoto event is cancelled because of the typhoon😭😭 but at least 14/8 Kyushuu is safe so we'll still find out if they let Rita have short hair

--- episode ----

Gira awakened the giant robot "with the people" 😭😭

kamejim still lives huh. a split in opinion in the villains... destroy the earth vs. rule the earth 🤔🤔

wait this is the same global warming plot as g-rosso 😂😐 /jk

is there deeper meaning zooming in on Gokkan…? (like where exactly IS the bugnarok base and how that lead to 27-30?)

Gerojim following up with each sentence after Jeramie cuuute

Jeramie my dear, if you keep up with the "protecting the young is the duty of the elders" I'm gonna be really afraid for you near the 40s

(edit: glad I misheard this: he said "disciplining the young" ok boomer)

busy man fighting and narrating for the show

ohhh he changed the narration "the story of Hell's King and another who'd become king" it's entirely about him now

he's even taken over his teammates' OP shots

the kings asking gira to validate their treaty and. rita. rita-sama. how does moffun marathon help with the melting of your glaciers

dead stare rita 💜

OI does Caucasus Kabuto-jou even HAVE a security if a nine-year-old can get in or is the orphanage some kind of ninja academy instead

ah… Boon... Gira can you just adopt him otherwise the first policy you make as king should've been improving the orphange's welfare huh 😢 but yes more personal vs. duty conflict

it hurts them both for Gira to say "the evil king is not your nii-chan" 🥺

Yanma looking sideways when in fact the other kings are in front of him in his phone

Yanma你嫁過去啦好無😂 賢內助

不満を発散しないと爆発しる

Rita: "If one cannot disperse thier dissatisfaction, they will explode." perfect. 100% what someone who screams random would say

AHHHH Geroujim-chan helping!! Good boy! Jeramie defending him!! Geroujim refuse to leave him alone!!

Takada Masahi being the busiest person running both A & B plot this ep 😂😂

stopping mid-fight to talk... what a jeramie thing to do

ah they really are a shooting stand told you Yanma looks like a scammer lol. Why are the prizes his personal merch...

New Fry Noodle dance just dropped

as a person i'm fulfilled. to be able to hear Rita singing* Moffun's Song on record

what privledge to have the Sovereign/Chief Justice make you shaved ice…

the ice machine making chibi moffun chirps

"chimidoro" + red syrup 😂

Takada-san has a close-up too!

lamp post… smol. helpless. the evil king.

Speaking of which these three aren't royal blood (rita quantum as always but)

The team care about Gira as a person before he is king 😭

this may not be the best storytelling or my fan filter is too heavy at this point but. i really love how the team has this unsaid understanding and respect of each other's position on the (equal!) ground that they are both leaders of their country and had to face the same struggle of duty vs. self

and that kizuna is often reflected in action (instead of words)!

taking Jeramie's speech about "what's written in the past cannot be changed, but the present and the future is still in my hand" with Gira's conversation with Rainoir… the theme of creating your own future ne.

Like, I feel like this episode is Jeramie's movie (where his character exploration was sacrificed for screentime in the actual one)

the cameras! can you be more obvious! the eventual Red-Sixth heart-to-heart is gonna kill me

Gira repeating his philosophy of "I protect the people, the people protect those around them" as echoes to his brother (ep18) and movie's "living in this world is hell (re:ep23)" huh

Jeramie kneeling down below his sight line when Boon is all offenseive 😭😭

Boon, you're both Ohsama Sentai 😭

Jeramie is "The Prophet" not because he actually has prophetic power but the current animosity/ignorance is created by his stories and choice of words 😭😭

Jeramie thinking his wordings is just a statment of fact while others interpret it as an opinion is peak autistic behaviour

his disillusionment *heart hurts* Masahi's acting and also the cameras closing in + replicating 11's angles. He put his bug hand over his face like the spider mask that he stayed behind all those years. the mask that was a gift from his parents. maybe as if to hide, maybe as now he truly understands the bugnarok. whyyy is jerami's character so tragic!! (talk about being named after greek myth characters)!

ah Gira immediately covering Boon!

exclusive full team transform!

ooh Boon held onto his cape!

the gattai took too long and the monster ran away 😂 (FALSE)

minatures my love!!

red gira i missed you

minatures my love!!

ahh high five!!

history repeats itself...

formation fights formation fights!!

Souchou are you flying with tonbo wings !?!

the b&w shippers!

(but Kaguragi's movie scene about betrayal!)

His middle name is Idomonarak?? (namesake)

(edit: with Himeno having one as well, are the kings' middle name gonna be a story? or had a story but not included to save screentime?)

I'm really glad they kept Jeramie's weakness in family matters (not as much a "lack of strength" but something that can easily persuade him since he values it) because i'm also very weak in family matters… that's one of the reason i grew a liking to him

i objected to yanma at the same time as gira. thank you gira 😭

"I'll do it all by myself. Only then can I be the King who Rules Over All." STOP YOU'RE IN A SENTAI S.E.N.T.A.I we join forces and have NAKAMA didn't we went through with this whole arc with rita (at least in my head) 😭

but that's a very Sixth thing to do. um *nods*.

Eighth-chan!!! NOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOO there's no way back once you go giant!

I salute you. You are a good villain.

Jeramie reaching out with his bug hand

"Akarui" any connection to Deathnarok's comment looking into Gira's eyes in ep10?

bro I love this episode but I didn't expect it would be because of the main plot part and not the silly matsuri part?!?

they are furthering the angle that everyone involved in ep20's relief operation is a member of the Taskforce 😭

totally forgot to take note of earcuff-chan. too distracted by plot and expecting tomorrow

+ if they have the whole supporting cast here is this is probably what they shot on Yuhei-san's birthday (19 July)

ep25:

KABE... KABE... KABEDON??!?!!?!?!?!?!

[dearweirdme]

Hello

Just wanted to share my thoughts

For taennie being real the main points i see is the fact that tae never denied it at the start when the pics came out but then again if this has been planned since a year he wouldn't have been able to say anything and the pics were proven to be edits so what would he say here

Second, it could be real and they were tired of hiding, I mean ok but after a whole year of no signs of even knowing each other. And they could have nicely done it via dispatch rather than this mess

Third, they are real and the company exposed to sabotage Tae , also least likely because the clothes they and their managers were wearing was screaming to be recognised and that shady pap and security allowing him to film, it was meant to be seen and spread

Fourth, why have a mediaplay/PR stunt, well tae may have reasons of his own that benefit him but it massively helps J because her new show is very very controversial and if you see yesterday's naver articles of tae all of them had jennie in it

So its definitely giving the publicity

I know some will say Tae looked happy leaving but if he has made peace with the decision to have a staged pr stunt he is going to be professional about it

What do you think?

Also I have watched tae and jk for too long to just say it was nothing over something like this

Hi anon!

Sorry this took me soooooo long to answer! My brother is getting married tomorrow and I have been so busy because of that.

For taennie being real the main points i see is the fact that tae never denied it at the start when the pics came out but then again if this has been planned since a year he wouldn't have been able to say anything and the pics were proven to be edits so what would he say here

No confirmation as well as no denial fits both narratives. If he wanted to keep things a secret he wouldn't say anything (although I do feel he might have hinted on some things if they actually were a couple. I cannot imagine Tae not wanting to defend, even subtly, his real partner if they were getting dragged) and if it's fake he absolutely wouldn't adress is. So that is no proof for either situation.

Second, it could be real and they were tired of hiding, I mean ok but after a whole year of no signs of even knowing each other. And they could have nicely done it via dispatch rather than this mess

Agree, the no sightings whatsoever is strange to me. Because once rumors and pictures started leaking you would expect people to be extra sensitive to spotting them. Tae and Jk were spotted several times, even privately. Tae and Jennie would attract the same amount of attention.

Third, they are real and the company exposed to sabotage Tae , also least likely because the clothes they and their managers were wearing was screaming to be recognised and that shady pap and security allowing him to film, it was meant to be seen and spread

Yeah, I don't really do the whole sabotage thing either. Seems counterproductive for the company to do this to him. I see little evidence and little reason for that.

Fourth, why have a mediaplay/PR stunt, well tae may have reasons of his own that benefit him but it massively helps J because her new show is very very controversial and if you see yesterday's naver articles of tae all of them had jennie in it

To me this is most likely. It just fits the whole.

Also I have watched tae and jk for too long to just say it was nothing over something like this

Yes, very much this!

As a literature major and an avid reader, I believe words have power. They can be used to help or to harm, to soothe or to injure. With the advent and proliferation of social media, it's become easier for people with influence to use their fame and their platform to push certain agendas, either for good or ill. I'd like to take a minute and talk about a phrase I've been hearing a lot in recent years. And that phrase is "separate the art from the artist".

The phrase “separate the art from the artist” has been coined as a way to differentiate one's appreciation of an artist's work (music, films, literature, etc) from the artist's actions or beliefs. It's a way for people to seemingly condemn the words and behavior of an artist while still being able to enjoy the media they created. Examples of this would be still listening to Kanye's music despite his anti-semetic statements, still watching films by Woody Allen and Roman Polanski despite the multiple rape and sexual assault allegations, and still watching Dave Chappelle specials despite his openly transphobic and homophobic statements.

Which brings me to my main point. JK Rowling is a TERF, i.e. a trans exclusionary radical feminist. She doesn't believe trans women are real women, and has been VERY vocal and open about her feelings about the trans community in general. She has defenders, including actors Helena Bonham-Carter and Ralph Fiennes, writer and creator of The IT Crowd Graham Linehan (who argues that transgender activism endangers women and has likened the use of puberty blockers to Nazi eugenics), and late actor Robbie Coltrane. You know who else is an avid defender of Rowling and her views?

Vladimir Putin.

Now, like many of you reading this, I grew up reading the Harry Potter books. My first date with a boy in high school was to see the newest Harry Potter film. I had HP Uno, Funko Pops, etc, etc. And I could have done what other people have and "separate the art from the artist". But it's not that simple. And here's why: She doesn't. JK Rowling has explicitly said that she believes the fact she's still making money off Harry Potter is evidence that people generally agree with her views on trans people or at least her beliefs aren't a "dealbreaker" for them. Let that sink in. She firmly believes that you buying the newest HP merch means you agree with her or at least don't care enough about the well-being of trans people to stop supporting her. Because that's what you're doing when you buy the newest Loungefly bag or video game. YOU may not think buying those things is supporting her transphobia, but SHE DOES.

And this is why I can't separate the art from the artist. As long as this persists, I cannot, and will not, support people who are actively harming various communities. It's 2023. We should be actively fighting against homophobia, transphobia, anti-semitism, racism, and bigotry in all its forms. And as long as they continue to make money off of you, they will continue to use their platforms to spread hate and lies, and it will get people killed. As long as you continue to buy their art, they will keep thinking you agree with them, because in a way you are. Their actions need to have consequences. Stop buying HP stuff. Stop buying Kanye's music. Stop giving your money to men and women with hate in their hearts and poison in their words.

Please.

Stop.

[mysmistree]

I wish I could put a trigger warning or something at the top of this post, but reblogs allow no such things.

If you disagree with my stance, you're welcome to message me or some such. I do not think any element of this matter should, in any way, be taken lightly. But I am presently working out for myself what a famed person being accused of things I believe are wrong means for myself.

===============================================

Well, this was an utterly miserable way to find out one of my favorite authors has been accused of things I fundamentally do not agree with.

Sung his praises, for weeks, months, even quite recently, and then this comes out. I feel like a fool, but the fair perspective is that I couldn't have known until this news broke.

I'm unsure whether or not to change anything I've done. Do I keep the techniques I cited from his interviews and lessons? Do I try to echo them? Do I disavow my copies of his works because he has unveiled an unpleasant side of his person?

I already find that a well-written news source has swayed me to believe it is true, but is it? Are they trustworthy?

Should it matter? In my life, living as I am, and doing the things I wish to do, is this something I ought consider?

If I've read the article correctly, then the worst he's done is either slightly better, or significantly worse, than the life and actions of Earnest Hemmingway, who is also an author for whom praises are sung.

In the comments of this original post, someone keeps saying "Allegedly". Which is fair, they are alleged allegations. However, the article also "alleges" that he admits to the deed and argues the context.

What does one do, at this juncture? Does one wait for a resolution? Accept the suggested position?

I'm hesitant to even mention his name, because would that come across as celebrating him? Condemning him?

Do I even know the truth of the matter? Is it better? Is it worse?

I dare not fly to his side of defense; All I have and celebrate is the figment in my head of who I wish he was, whether or not the accusations are true.

And the original post, which put his name in the tags, underlined quite fairly that it is very easy to fly in the defense of someone you like, innocent or not.

Been seeing a lot of that lately. Events on YouTube have shown certain individuals to be deplorable, and their friends and fans first fly to defense. Which, in fairness, is what I think one naturally wants to do. Innocent until proven guilty, right? If my best friend were accused of SA, if there was no proof, I would be on their side, because I cannot see them being so horrible.

But the right thing is to also seek the facts until the doubt is gone. Not to accept such causelessly. Is the person accusing for a reason, or for show? Do they have evidence, times? Or do they just have vague claims, wants? Is there a contradiction, or does it line up just a little too well to be wrong?

If my friend could be demonstrated, in some way that I find undeniable, that they committed this act, then I would have been wrong to defend them, after the fact. And I think this, too, is natural and human. I'd even be ashamed and upset after the fact, far worse than I am now over some famed figure, that I associated or defended them. But the truth will out. The truth must out.

But all this is the far and away hypothetical.

What do I do about someone I looked up to but isn't part of my life? Who's story I cannot verify, I cannot confront, but merely follow along as the details exist? Do I accept their work, praise it, as things continue?

This all spins in my head.

I think it is only sensible to accept the things that I believe for myself to be true or valuable, independent of the advice and source, the same way I've wound up taking Harry Potter after finding JK Rowling to be a vicious person against folks like me.

There are things I vibed with. The setting. The use of gold coins. A door to a common room that accepts you for whoever you are, as long as you're willing to learn, and can answer a riddle.

I will take these pieces and make them mine.

And with this man's work, I will find what I like, make them mine, and seek for myself the story I'm trying to tell, instead of holding onto the willed vestment in another person.

I'm certainly not buying any more of his books until I get an answer that is convincing on things. And never again, if it is a horrible thing.

"omg he would never" "no he's a good guy though" "why haven't these women come forward before" "well she's known for being a liar so" "yeah but have you seen the things she used to tweet"

∆ trans women are women, trans men are men, and if you are transphobic, you are not a feminist, this post is not about "Male Violence" or how men are "inherently violent" this post is about people who do not truly have feminist beliefs and people who will do anything to protect cis white men from criticism while attacking any woman who comes out against him. at the core of this instinct is the automatic disgust + hatred people have towards women, even other women themselves. you're favorite man is not protected from being a perpetrator of violence against women, you're least favorite woman does not deserve said violence ∆

[thekimspoblog]

Me: "Intersectional, trans-inclusive feminism is the only form of feminism which is able to achieve the goal of equality long-term"

Random conspiracy nut: "dID yOu kNoW thAt GLoRia sTeINeM WAS a cia oPerATiVe????"

Me: (Googles it) "Huh. I guess you're right. Don't see what the fuck this has to do with what I was saying; I gave the names of three feminists I support, and you went and made an ad hominem attack on a completely different woman from a different country and a different time period, but go off king"

First of all, the only evidence I could find was a Steinem quote from almost 50 years ago praising the CIA. So I'll admit I'm biased and don't want to feel betrayed by yet another political figure I did hold in high-esteem, but I think the most charitable interpretation in this case is pretty reasonable: The CIA gave money to student groups because it was a way to recuperate the progressive agenda without allowing communist sentiment to spread, Gloria was once upon a time a useful mouthpiece for this agenda, but distanced herself from them after the brutality of their agency came to light in the 70's. At worst, she's lying and still actively working with them, in which case fuck'er but again this does nothing to undermine my point about what qualifies someone as a "radical feminist".

Second, if anything this bolsters my point about JK Rowling. "Feminist causes which repel government tyranny keep getting their terminology ruined by conservative psy-ops and useful idiots" was my entire thesis. If your criticism of Steinem is that - even in the modern day - her brand of feminist rhetoric distracts from conversations about class solidarity, that's completely valid. I would agree: feminism cannot achieve its goals without Marxist theory, Marxists cannot achieve their goals without feminist theory, no discourse on liberation is complete without trans feminism, and everyone should feel justified using direct action against a police state which is trying to impose strict social roles on their bodily autonomy. JK Rowling can call himself whatever political label he wants, but at the end of the day if he's donating to anti-choice causes because he's THAT insistent on gatekeeping the movement, he's a shit feminist. Likewise, if Steinem is still harboring anticommunist sentiment, she's also kneecapping her own goals. Every feminist brings their own (flawed) perspectives to the table, and Helen Ogston brought a horsewhip. I made a post that was low-key defending terrorism, and you're out here yelling about how I love the government; this is NOT the backlash I expected.

True story, I actually have met Gloria Steinem at a book signing. And even at the time, I wanted to grill her on her stance about political violence, in the wake of the Dobbs ruling. But I was having an allergic reaction from some nearby tree pollen and could not approach her without my nose running. Story of my life. 🤷‍♀️

[joe-moi]

omg the m situation made me so uncomfortable. Like these were the same fans that defended Joe against DM’s cheating allegations but were happy to pawn off the blame on m. Like I love gossiping as much as the next person, but it’s one thing to theorize like we’ve been doing talking about how they were on and off. But it’s another thing to attach blame and say with certainty that person A was cheating with no proof. And it’s so sexist that ppl will just blame the girl for breaking their fav’s heart, when in fact there’s a chance that their fav could’ve been a shitty partner.

Exactly that. Lots of time rumors don’t just appear out of thin air (unless it’s completely wild, and cheating rumors are not completely wild). I’m not saying that either one did that, but I feel like rumors like that don’t just pop outta nowhere. But you cannot solely put the blame on one person because your favorite is involved.

Bc rm how I keep saying jk has some similar relationship traits to my ex (from the onlookers perspective)? That’s how his last major relationship ended. It was on and off for years and ended when they BOTH found themselves cheating. sooo I mean….that easily could’ve happened too. We will never know and you can’t blame just one, a relationship is 50/50.

you just never truly know. Unless one of them releases, a book or a statement, saying what happened, we will never know.

TPOL!JK

“jungkook, no! w-wait!” you say trying to catch up with him but you end up losing him in the crowd. your heart is in pieces right now and you’re angry at yourself for just standing by but confrontation isn’t good for your health. THIS isn’t good for your health.

“y/n?” jorja says as she catches up with you while alina goes after yerin. yet again your night was ruined thanks to the love of your life but part of it is your fault too right?

you could’ve had fun without the strippers around.

you could’ve just went to a fancy restaurant instead.

you could’ve stayed home and not come out.

you could’ve and maybe should’ve done a lot of things that would’ve changed the outcome of tonight but here you are crying in jorja’s arms with yours and her belongings in hand while walking you out of the club.

“i’ll take you home” she offers but you don’t want to go home. it’s times like these where you miss your mother because she felt like a safe haven from all the loud noise outside. you could always just relax with her, laugh with her, and watch her favorite shows but you have nowhere to go now.

“you don’t have to take me home, jo. i’ll figure it out” you tell her as you take your belongings from her and walk the opposite direction from her.

“are you crazy?! i am not gonna leave you out here by yourself”

“there’s a nearby hotel, jo. i’ll be fine”

“y/n, everything will be fine. jungkook is upset but you don’t have to—“

“IT’S OVER, JORJA! it’s over. we are over” you get out and jorja is taken back by your tone but she knows a lot has happened just now.

“i’m sorry. i don’t mean to yell at you”

“it’s okay. i know you don’t mean it. a lot of bullshit has happened all at once and you’re still processing”

“yeah” you shrug and jorja goes to pull you in a tight hug. “everything’s gonna be okay” she whispers but you know they won’t. once again, the marriage is at risk. it really does feel like deja vu and maybe you should just let go of the leash already.

you keep pulling him back when you should’ve just let him go and this time……..

“so what’s going to happen now? between the two of you”

“it’s over jo. for real this time. this won’t be the last time he acts like this and it’s not good for either of us”

“yeah, i was going to tell you that maybe you shouldn’t marry him because of…that. i like him and all but not that”

“i guess yerin was right i do enable that, huh? dammit, i need my medicine” you say because you can’t be without your medication or you’ll end up having a flare up and you know the rest.

“okay, let’s swing by your house, pack an overnight bag, and i’ll drop you off at the hotel” jorja agrees as you get in her car so she can take you home.

when you arrive, you tell jorja to stay behind and wait for you which she doesn’t agree to do but you convince her to stay. when you walk inside, you don’t find jungkook so you go upstairs, grab a bag and pack some of your things.

your medication, pajamas, toothbrush, toothpaste, and other necessities. when you’re finished, you contemplate leaving your ring behind. i mean, he said he’s done and so are you….

you slip it off and leave it on his nightstand. next, you’re getting the tattoo removed and you guess you’ll have to start over yet again.

When he comes home that night.. you’re gone, of course.

And he doesn’t even have the energy to cry anymore because he really is done. He cannot do this every time. He cannot let your friends walk all over him when you don’t even try to defend him.. just like always you walked away from him.

And this time he’s going to let you. Because you think that you are a maid for his infant son and that he’s too toxic for you. Maybe you’re right, one of your friends are right, you are just not meant to be. He tried way too many times… but it never works out does it?

He killed everyone just to have you but did it work out? No. Maybe love isn’t for him and marriage and definitely not for him. Now he’s realizing that… especially when he spots your ring on his nightstand.

Jungkook is giving up on you.

He will really let you go. As he sits down on his bed.. he stares with the tattoo, and it’s breaking his heart. You’ve left him once again.

What kind of a love do you have for him anyways? He will never understand, but now he knows he’ll never love anyone ever again. He will never be vulnerable again.

It is not worth it and you were also not worth it.

It’s just going to be him and his son from now on- and he’ll prove to everyone that he’s more than capable of taking care of his child on his own- but right now Jaemin is with his mother.

So Jungkook throws his coat on the bed and he just lets himself fall down on the mattress. You’ve broken his heart into many pieces, and now it will never mend.

“F-FUCK YOU YN! FUCK YOU YERİN.” he cusses you and your friend out, and he lets out a frustrated scream. You didn’t care for him.

You didn’t care about his feelings at all, you didn’t even try to confront yerin about anything at all- anytime she said negative shit about jungkook- you just listened.

Jungkook tries his best to fall asleep, but he really can’t- because he feels cold, and all alone. And it’s been a while since he’s been alone.

But he’d better get used to this now- because you’re not coming back ever- and even if you do, he won’t let you.

After hours of agony- he’s finally asleep, so deeply asleep that he doesn’t even notice his phone going off.

He will live without you.

And just like that a whole week passes by, and right now jungkooks with his three month old son, at a park. Yeah Jaemins a little too young to be here right now but- he just keeps on crying whenever he’s with his dad and it’s really obvious why.

He’s missing you.

And Ji-Ae is missing you too, all of them, except for Jungkook are missing you, and as much as his mother tries to make him understand, he doesn’t listen. “Ah ah Minnie look at that swing.” Jungkook coos, hoping that Jaemin will calm down a little but the infant just keeps on crying.

His priority right now is only his son, but he doesn’t know what to do right now.

That is until someone approaches him.
