It's a lot of good memories

was at work and plagued by the thought of retail worker will graham being pestered by hannibal in the high end food aisle. to be clear, this is an au in which will still has his heightened empathy but just works a shitty job. hannibal is absolutely enraptured by his autistic rizz anyway.

it's funny that andrastianism was right but like a thousand years too early. like no a god and his (once?) mortal beloved didn't inhabit the golden city but. they do now.

I love seeing everyone talking about bringing bracelets to trade for tit and creating crafts and drawings and art and phan works to share and it just brings me such unadulterated joy to be part of such a creative, lovely and enthusiastic fandom. even though I've only been a phan for a year, and had tumblr for a couple of months, you are all so lovely and I'm glad to be a part of such a wonderful community

I think on this fine Saturday afternoon it's a good opportunity to take a breather and remember that there are really no ethical paparazzi pictures. Every single one is inherently exploitative.

Just because photos were taken on a movie set, when someone is 'working,' does not make the practice any less invasive and creepy. Imagine just going about your day, doing your job and having some weirdo snapping pictures of you to sell without your consent for others to endlessly repost online.

There are thousands of pictures of your favourite actor online already. Plenty taken with his knowledge and consent. I'd really like to see more of them on my dash, rather than the creeper shots.

And don't get me started how disseminating these pictures directly leads to people going to said sets. What starts off as admiring how good someone looks has real world implications.

No, hanging around a movie set and disrupting people doing their jobs is not harmless fun or a way to show your appreciation.

If you hang around a movie set, you are a stalker.

Don't tell me that it's okay to take your online admiration for someone offline. You may admire him but he does not, and will never, personally know you. He will never be your friend/boyfriend/daddy. He is a stranger.

The only way meeting your favourite actor is going to happen is at a convention or maaaaaybe a movie premiere if you're incredibly fortunate. You know, places they appear specifically to meet fans (or not in the case of premieres, where the purpose is to promote a movie. Which is also completely understandable if actors don't stop. You are not owed an interaction).

Of course, you cannot help it if you randomly run into someone you admire in the wild. Even then, consider that they probably won't be all too thrilled to be approached in public by a complete stranger. It's up to you to gauge the situation, but remember there is a person at the heart of all of this.

Boundaries and respect are a kindness which deserves to be extended to each and every human being regardless of their looks/talent/fame/wealth.

Fandoms blur those lines a little too often for my liking and I think just scrutinising what you're interacting with, or what behaviour you could be possibly falling down that slippery slope towards is nice to do every once in a while.

I mean no malice with this post and it is not directed at anyone in particular. It's something I cannot help but feel strongly about because I've seen this destructive cycle time and again in fandoms over the years. It's not healthy and it makes us all a little bit more disconnected from our humanity for it...

@trainto1925 and now u got ME thinkin!!!

wondering when eiden would have gotten good enough at plushie making to create his entire harem in doll form. ...possibly around the time blade showed up. eiden got a lot of practice making thousands of Eiden Plushies as gifts 🤣

imagining how eiden starts to do a lot of impromptu "visualisation" exercises when blade joins the roster

BLADE: but why was lil yakumo embarrassed when i showed garugaru the box in front of-- EIDEN: (sighing goodnaturedly) ok, say..um *grabs the nearest two items* pretend this cup is garu, and this spoon is yakumo---

after some repetition, eiden wonders if blade will understand better if he just has dolls representing everyone thus begins the plushie brigade

Just watched Nimona

The fact this movie never got a theater release because of Blue Sky's closure and Disney deciding to nix it once acquired will forever break my heart holy shit.

Like up front it is BEAUTIFULLY animated, the writing is tight as hell, the story is genuinely moving and amazing. By that alone it deserved to be in theaters.

*deep breath*

But BOY HOWDY am I SALTY AS FUCK that a animated movie that is accessible to kids, especially queer kids, got knocked out of the process to reach theaters when

IT JUST CASUALLY HAS A INTERRACIAL GAY COUPLE WITH A (metaphorically) ADOPTED (literally) TRANS CHILD AS THE 3 MAIN CHARACTERS IN THE MOVIE THE FUCKING HELL WE COULD'VE HAD ALL THIS PERFECTLY DONE QUEER MEDIA ON THE BIG SCREEN AS A COHERENT AMAZING STORY FUC-

Late Night quick thing (New Age Sillies)

Bad news: That joke post about including Reset + Orchid is definitely not canon. (I legit got sad thinking about Reset being in a universe where Orchid isn't- because their stories are so so intertwined- but Nightmare 100% would NOT risk the whole twins exploding Error's soul thing.)

Good news: This means I COULD include Kane (Reset's older brother who usually dies in timelines where Reset is born) and use it to develope his character a bit more! Also! Perhaps a Blue × Dream kiddo is finally in the stars for me to design?

I’m super jealous you got a hug from albert mason’s actor, he seems like such a sweetheart! I heard he said something about arthur/albert during a panel lol, can I ask what it was? it’s so fun when actors are totally aware and encouraging like that

Yes! I don't remember his exact words, but he definitely acknowledged the Albert/Arthur ship, and understood how their relationship could be interpreted in that way. Such a cool dude!

[tuesdayinthedas]

I can’t stop thinking about Vegeta throughout the end of DBZ. This proud warrior Prince, his people no longer exist, except for one absolute clown of a Saiyan raised on earth. The one man who saved him not once but twice. His original goal of immortality, a chance to have a level of control he hasn’t had under the thumb of Frieza and opportunity to liberate himself, the last legacy of his race and he gets his ass whooped.

Then he tries again and fails again (when he gives in to despair in the face of Frieza being so powerful, it hurts and Im so proud of him that we never see that again and I fully believe its due to Gokus influence). And then theres Goku again, Vegeta leaves his peoples and Vegetas own hopes and dreams to Goku. And Goku delivers. And then Vegeta has nothing, Frieza gone, his people gone, what can he even do? All he has left is his promise to beat Goku one day, (Vegeta hold so much weight in promises).

And then Goku dies and he’s just gone. Sure he comes back 7 years later, but in that time Vegeta’s entire reason for being was gone, sure he starts a family and one that he dearly loves. But the return of Goku ignites those lost feelings in him. Its that whole premise of growing up with expectations of what you were going to be and you wake up one day and realise you don’t recognise yourself, you aren’t who you were promised to be, aren’t who you were aiming for (this is why I just love Majin Vegeta so much). A promised Prince, with no people to rule, the one person that is the reason he is alive at all, that was his entire drive gone for what he would have thought to be forever, what could you even do, where could you even go? He had his one anchor of Bulma and then his children. But this wasn’t what he was supposed to be, he should have been a ruler, he should have been dead. And then his one true goal returns and he’s confronted with that and he falls.
