unpopular opinion but whump should and deserves to be messy
"Yeah duh there's plenty of scenarios with blood and tears--" no. I want more.
I want pink tinted spit dribbling out of Whumpee's mouth. I want strings of saliva connecting between their busted lip to Whumper's tongue. I want drool running down the corners of their mouths because of a gag that makes it difficult to swallow.
I want sweat making Whumpee feel sticky and clammy to the touch. I want their skin to be slick and soaking into their soiled clothes. I want them to squirm in discomfort of a dirty shirt clinging to their back from precious fluids that are going to risk further dehydration. I want their hair to be continuously damp and hanging in thick strands in their face.
I want the scabs to turn white with pus and black with infection. I want old wounds to tear open and bleed a thick red. I want the pink flesh underneath to pulse and quiver, the sight of yellow fat and cartilage. I want blood vessels and capillaries to burst and spread over an area, I want burns to start brown and peel away to a tender pink.
I want Whumpee to vomit out of their nose because their mouth is gagged. I want bile to reek on their clothing and on their tongue. I want them to grow use to the taste of bitter blood and burning chyme forever in the back of their throat. I want them to have to snort and hack to be able to spit out whatever was still caught on their tongue or risk swallowing it down.
I want their tears to remain unwiped and crusting over their eyes. I want snot to smear over their cheeks and leave their lips uncomfortably tacky. I want their face to remain blotchy and red because they just can't get it clean. I want dirt and blood and skin to build up under their fingernails to the point they risk infecting their own wounds if they try and mess with it. I want Whumpee to only be sprayed down with cold water and an old towel, never any soap and never in all the creases of their body.
I want their bodies caked in grime and viscera and bodily fluids. I want Whumper to never give them the luxury of feeling clean and in fact actively making them more filthy each time. I want Whumpee's clothes yellowed and their hair matted and their skin sickly. I want injuries to never properly heal so that the only option is to amputate the necrosis. I want Whumper to force Whumpee to clean up whatever kind of mess they made by licking it off the floor.
I want arteries to spew like a garden sprinkler. I want the exposed roots of pulled teeth to dangle freely in their mouth. I want Whumpee's hair, including all of their body hair, to grow to unruly lengths that are constantly tangled and ingrown. I want them to find comfort in starving because it means there's nothing to risk throwing up. I want them to scrub their skin raw and bleeding, uncaring how much it aggravates their injuries or how the soap stings, the first chance they're given for a real bath.
I want it to be nasty!!!!!!

William when the lucidity hits and he can't escape the things he's done and the innocent children he's killed and how he can't undo that because you can't bring back the dead, what was he thinking? What has he done? He can only sob while he grips the toilet and retches, trembling and gasping and pleading to the damning emptiness that he's sorry, he's so sorry. But he can't stop now. He can't stop.

I still think Sanji is too charming/cool in the live action, but I definitely agree that cutting the over-the-top perverted simping and keeping him more of a romantic ladies' man was the right move. It's not funny in the anime, and it would've come off as insanely creepy and off-putting with a real actor.
Animation offers a degree of distance and tolerance for certain behaviors that live action with real humans doesn't. This is especially true since you couldn't do Sanji's simp body language (heart eyes, nosebleeds, noodle body) that makes the anime read as comedic and not threatening, like the commonly understood visual language of anime just isn't there with live action. For example, The Mask only worked because Jim Carrey had a ton of prosthetic makeup on and his whole body/face/behavior was consistently cartoonish, so people were willing to accept the weird sexual stuff (plus it was 1994). Sanji is just a regular looking human man and audiences would not root for him as a hero if they'd kept the really perverted stuff in.
You know what they should've kept, though? His damn curly eyebrows.

do you have any thoughts on where the show might take That Dynamic that could make it interesting again? 👀
hello! not like complex thoughts in the sense of a fic or anything but i think it would be kind of easy to play with what they already have which is 1) animosity because of louis and 2) the stockholm syndrome context that was already alluded but can be revisited in the future why not. kind of long so under the cut.
just. the fact that now they have this bond of master/fledgling that is bound to bring them together at some point. they clearly hate each other but it's at least intriguing because they hate each other for intimate reasons. it's not apersonal. armand blames daniel for the end of his relationship with louis. so he is both object of punishment and the last link with louis he has, that he may want to revisit just to keep one (1) feeling alive in the void that is his eternal lonely life.
daniel thinks armand was a dick to his friend louis of course and of course even before that armand tortured him. BUT--- i think the REAL reason daniel hates armand and is so bitchy with him more than all this is that when he tortured him in 205 he saw him. he saw him at his most pathetic and he saw that he wanted to die. it was not romantic in any way but it was vulnerable. and then instead of truly punishing him for it. he. gave him what he wanted. with kindness. or maybe daniel is not even sure whether he wanted it maybe armand made him want it, but the point is there was a moment where armand was cradling him gently and offering a reprise he desired. BUT, it was false, it was of course not a real kindness and daniel knows this. and he must also feel violated because mind shenanigans were going on. and then this was all interrupted and daniel now has to live with this knowledge. that he had to suffer this indignity of feeling the most seen and understood by a person that does not care for him at all and that exposed and exploited that only for a sick mind game. of having being offered and having accepted this gift of like almost maternal rest, having shared this moment of vulnerable sweetness. and it was fake. even partly piloted. that is an interesting ambivalent mindest to me.
and now this person is his maker. and he has to some extent curry his favour because he needs access though him to the vampire world and power.
i really think they can do something good and twisted with this. i think they can play with this desire but also fear that daniel has to be actually seen and understood and armand being able to do that (mainly because he is a master manipulator) DESPITE hating each other. during the interview when armand skinned him alive with the alice references daniel looked GUTTED. to me that's erotic. not romantic at all but erotic for sure. because again there's vulnerability and closeness in that type of violence, it's not detached. you need to know each other to hurt each other that way. it's almost as if they are divorced without ever being married.
and conversely, the torture scene was intimate in a very twisted way for armand too imo. he revealed a lot of himself to daniel without fully realizing because he thought he would die. daniel has been the only witness to the out of control rage that he has never let anyone, especially louis, see. and armand has basically shown him that even when he kills he cannot do it with the victim hating him, he always needs a reassurance. so he also feels exposed and although contrary to daniel he does not really want that (even in romantic relationships his instinct is usually to hide his true self) it can still be liberating to have someone around that has already seen the worst of you. moreover, for armand i can see very easily a continuation of the "is that what makes you fascinating" trend going on, fixating on daniel as the catalyst of the divorce instead of facing his own flaws and turning that fixation into an erotic desire for domination because of a re-direction of feelings he has for louis and general desire to retake control of his life by figuratively and literally taking control of the person that is responsible for making it spin it out of control.
you see where i am going with this???
like i am not even saying my interpretations of prev scenes are correct i am just writing random possible stuff. but at least it would not be "oh armand kidnaps daniel because......reasons and they have generic bdsm like we are in 50 shades of gray because.....other nebulous reasons".
and this could also be a new dynamic in the show in the whole abusive /toxic discourse in that 1) either armand may not seek to actually have total control over daniel as he does not want a relationship and he does not want him in his life that often /also daniel is not in love with armand; 2) or maybe they actually do create a true prisoner stockholm syndrome situation that has erotic undertones.
and to me this would honestly be very interesting because of course it's still like wrong lol. i am not saying that eroticizing = endorsing, i hope this is clear to a public of adults. but it can maybe fall outside of the strictly patriarchal framework analysed until now in the show and just create different conversations around what's abuse, what's consent within abuse etc. and it can also be hot if taken eyes open at face value as basically horror torture porn.
give me your thoughts!!

kurona ranze as your bf: random hcs
tags: male!reader, reader is taller than kurona(5’6), reader is a blue lock player, me gushing over a character that has literal crumbs of info available so i’m making this up as i go, oh my god he is literally a bipedal lemon shark
Tumblr media
kurona ranze. *sighs dreamily* kurona ranze…
he is literally a magenta lemon shark (*gasp* a strawberry lemonade shark… bro my fucking mind)
you two would literally be the “excuse me, he asked for no pickles” bf x standing behind you at the register bf
i do believe he has a good amount of self-confidence but only speaks when he feels it’s necessary so he’s completely cool with you being the more assertive one in the relationship
he is also so so loyal. one of the most loyal men you’ll ever meet and is just as reliable off the field as he is on field
i feel like he isn’t a big fan of pda so you gotta show him your love when you two are alone cause it feels a lot more special to him. besides you guys prob gotta hide it from all the bltv cameras anyway
when he warms up to the relationship more, he’ll absolutely love physical affection from you even becoming clingy for your attention once you two are alone
you absolutely love doting on him (i mean just look at him) and he clearly enjoys that type of attention from you so much but would never admit it out loud
he is literally the perfect height for easy discreet forehead kisses so you can simply sneak one in quickly and walk off before he can fully process it
it’s so cute how short he is that if you’re able to pick him up, you would (if he’s comfortable with it ofc) but if he gets a leg cramp during training, then that’s the perfect excuse to carry him off the field so he can rest
when he gets flustered, it’s just the most adorable sight ever. his cheeks getting just as pink as his hair and him nervously gritting his teeth, possibly hiding his face in his shirt collar
speaking of his hair if you two share the same dorm room together, you could offer to do his braid for him in the morning before practice or a big match. such a simple yet sweet act of affection that makes his heart flutter when he feels your hand going through his hair
you’ve ever seen those tiktoks of a lemon shark getting nose rubs? yeah it’s exactly like that
don’t get me started on his teeth. he seems pretty neutral about his shark like features so feel free to openly gush about how cute they are to him. he’ll probably let you poke and prod at the pointy ends when he feels like it
he gives me a partner who just randomly bites you affectionately vibes and i’m not just saying that bc of his serrated teeth (it is mainly bc of that) but i can imagine whenever he doesn’t feel like expressing his love verbally, he just gives you a good ol’ chomp right on the meat of your bicep!
the way he repeats his last words (it’s a speech tic idc what anyone says) is also so so endearing that part of his character is just *chefs kiss*
you two were probably pretty subtle about your relationship only bc you two mutually agreed on not being too open about it with the others plus your teammates won’t expect such a pairing anyway.
can you imagine their surprise when they do find out? it probably started out with some of the observant ones noticing how weirdly… ‘close’ you two have gotten. small rumors forming about what possible relationship you have with kurona, mainly thanks to you accidentally slipping out a pet name one time while you were greeting him in front of the team
until all their suspicions are confirmed when one of your teammates spots you two kissing when you thought you were completely inconspicuous and alone
once the secret was out, you two were certainly crowned the cutest boyfriends in blue lock
hello message from me from the future. if you want more male reader content, then check out more of my blog :3

hi mimi :] guess who got new "matching" voicelines . i think i might be a bit delusional but it's a saga in my HEART and i will now rough tl/paraphrase them for you as i haven't the time to do it properly atm ( i'm at work but i had to inform you asap )
niki: i'm developing new recipes for a cooking segment on a new show i was put in charge of ! i'm thinking of focusing on spring vegetables ..
rinne: ( yawn ) i went out with niki early in the morning to dig up bamboo shoots, and we stayed there until pretty late in the evening, i've been so tired .. i think i'll sleep a bit now
niki: rinnekun told me spring was a great time for picnics, so i'm going to make a bento ! what would go nicely in it .. 💭
i swore there was another one but i don't feel like checking the shop atm to see if i missed a line . will update you if i did o7
WAUUGHHH THANK YOU... IVE SEEN A FEW COMICS ABT THEM BUT HAVENT GOTTEN THEM MYSELF so thank u so much for keeping me updated. now i will ramble
thinking about rinne being like (grumble grumble) why am i up this early (grumble grumble) damn you niki (in spite of agreeing to drive him the night before).... but still driving him, and joining him in digging up the bamboo shoots, and they end up having such a good time that he forgot he was even that tired at all to begin with. cue rinne and niki sitting in silence for like 5 mins in the car before he starts playing stuff from a playlist he made for the two of them and they immediately start singing/humming along
and in the following bento line i can imagine that happening almost before rinnes, like oh, bc rinnes doing this for me ill make us some food since he said spring is nice for picnics :) itll be fun and yummy food is always good~ (not just thinking about the food, obviously, but specifically remembering that tiny detail and wanting to Share That with the person he loves)
so by the time they have a few bags of bamboo shoots and are exhausted and covered in dirt nikis like ta dah!!! i made us bentos!! and rinnes thankful but also like omg, is this a date, does niki like me? i wouldve gotten dressed nicer 😳😳 nikikyun, you shoulda told meeee (super teasing, everyone knows theyre dating, hes being silly) and niki jokingly smacks him like no way! not like you wouldve done the laundry today anyway!! (but makes no attempt to reject the date idea) and and and.
Tumblr media
idk i just started thinking about this scenario, i always love the "oh i have to do this thing" and the other immediately joining in like "well duh obviously i gotta go with you" both in the more serious sense and with more everyday activities like this, as much as they complain they treasure each others company so much IM DEADDDDDDD

discussion #12 (only friends): lightness and darkness as prominent motifs, subtle sensuality, obscured intimacy, and the idea of 'seeing' each other through different senses [episode 5 recap]
goodness. what an episode.
honestly, there are so many beautiful things happening in episode 5. so many. it feels like a fever dream. a literal dream. it's surreal.
this episode really highlights the softness— the fragility of topmew's love and their overall dynamic when they've finally stripped themselves naked from all the facades they've been wearing from the start of their relationship until this point.
subtle sensuality, obscured intimacy and fragile softness
the sheer softness. the soft touches. the hand holding. the i'm willing to do anything for you. the loving gazes. the sweet smiles. the i love yous. promises were made. walls were shattered. they're finally on the same page.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so much is going on, but we're seeing their interaction in pieces. the close-up shots, the focus on their faces, hands and gestures, everything is just so intimately done and wonderfully executed. i can't express how breathtaking these shots are. it feels so inclusive. as if it's just them and no one else. but we, as the audience, are meant to see this in fragments because (i believe) we're supposed to view this scene from mew's perspective.
in a whimsical and crazy manner (that i can't explain eloquently), we are in mew's shoes, and we're witnessing the moment he falls for top— mew finally coming to terms with his feelings for top. and everything is just so soft and delicate and fairytale-like because this is mew's idea of falling in love, of love itself— genuine, secluded, tender, just two people and no one else.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
the shyness is still there, but it's also welcoming. and the part when they undress exudes warmth, happiness and playfulness. i would say, there was a very profound giddiness wafting around the air between them. additionally, there's also trust, something both of them have been teetering about for god knows how long. it's honest and raw, and they're very nervous (mew, especially), but it's okay. they have each other, and that's all that matters.
and i personally love how their making love scene is subtle and not explicit. it fits so well with mew's character; reserved, somewhat shy, and values sex as something sacred and pure. so this is very important to mew, and he wants it to be special. it's not for our eyes to see. despite them doing it near those see-through glass windows, it juxtaposes the fact a portion of mew's love for top and his virginity is only for top to see. not us. mew is willing to show bits and pieces of his love and sex life, but not all.
and it also illustrates top's respect for mew's likes and dislikes. it's different from when he did it with boston (both in public places) because it was just sex and nothing more. sex out of lust, hopelessness, anger, betrayal. but mew is not sex. mew is love and respect and happiness and forever. top truly treasures mew. his breaking point— his weakness.
lightness and darkness
again, i want to applaud forcebook for nailing the blind dinner scene. i'm just so in awe i stopped breathing when the whole scene unfolded.
the connection, the whole idea of not seeing— relying on their senses— the throwback to episode 1 when mew said, i can read people well, and top remembered, and that made mew feel special, only one— he finally believed he's the only one in top's life. so wonderfully done. hands fumbling. fingers intertwining. and that part when everyone faded, and it was just them, and there's finally more light— while we (the audience) knew it was supposed to be pitch black— but it was a moment of epiphany for mew— he knew top was the one. he loved top now. he believed it.
Tumblr media
they're seeing through each other, and forcebook acted out this temporary 'disability' very well! from the movement of their hands, the hesitation, the fear, but also the trust they have for each other: insane.
and it's also interesting how this scene played so much with light and dark. it explains the idea of mew and top in a state of vulnerability where they couldn't see, and with one vital sensory down, of course, they'll be more careful/cautious of their surroundings. in this state, i assume, is when their feelings are the most raw. somehow, i perceive this scene as a portrayal of honesty. since they couldn't see anything, it pushed them to rely on each other, to trust one another, and this brought out the best of top or the real top (mainly), and it was the awaited moment for mew.
all this while, mew needed that confirmation. he wanted to be assured that top was the one, but it didn't come as easily since top constantly toppled the trust he built. but here, mew broke his own walls by accepting those feelings whole-heartedly. sadly, i also believe this will cloud mew's judgment in the future. love makes a person blind; that is mew in the future episodes. he'll punch ray, his best friend, for spewing shit about top, his boyfriend, the person he loves most. but we all know it's going to be ugly as their first confrontation begins afterwards. it must have something to do with top finally telling the truth. //i'm preparing myself for the emotional whiplash next week offers.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
side note: kudos to p'book and p'force. their acting here is very convincing. they made us believe they were really in the dark and couldn't see anything. i'm just so proud of them. i really am :')
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and i love that they're in the light when mew accepted his feelings for top as something more than just an experiment— this notion of falling in love that had been playing in his head finally came to life. and it wasn't overly done, in my opinion. there weren't pink hearts or love emoticons or anything per se— but the slow-mo, the bright light (amid the supposedly dark dining hall), and the idea of 'seeing' each other through the darkness— a gorgeous illustration of falling head over heels for someone. and it's insane how in this scene it appeared as if they could 'see' each other— they're looking at each other, and not through each other. it somehow indicates mew's ideas of who top is, are completely gone now. this is top in mew's eyes. this is the top mew loves— in the dark, in his truest form.
speaking of that...
Tumblr media
it's so amazing how top is now in the dark (masked by the shadow) when he was always in the light. i look at this scene as top finally showing the real him. this is top— in this darkness— no longer hidden behind the confident mask— this is the top mew likes, and this is the top he wants mew to see.
light, in top's world, is attention, fame and reputation. so, to see top in the dark, bare and stripped of all those qualities that fed his ego, from the faces of top mew was never fond of, is liberating.
and it's mew on the spotlight now. he's shining, and this is how top sees mew— he's always the light in top's world.
Tumblr media
i can't form coherent words. the light and dark as the prominent motifs in this scene, are so perfectly shown in my opinion.
side note: this light and dark metaphor is also evident in episode 2 when top shares his trauma with mew. however, top was still shone by the light more than mew. it's because top's feelings weren't as deep as now, but he was slowly opening up to mew. and vice versa. mew was in the dark because even when they talked about top's fear, mew was doubtful. yet, there were rays of light on mew's face (towards the end) as they lay on the sofa and slept the night away. again, reaching equilibrium.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
conclusion
these topmew scenes in episode 5 took my breath away for good. it was an excellent portrayal of intimacy, honesty, shyness, happiness, truth and love. i haven't been that speechless and mindless since moonlight chicken and a boss and a babe. a big round of applause for forcebook (and of course, the directors) for this. i'm so proud of forcebook. i'm just, so proud.
i'm so excited to see mew and top break each other's hearts starting next week. and i think by then, we'll see more of forcebook's incredible acting (it's p'book's time to shine, i reckon), and i'm buckled up for the emotional damage they're going to put me in.
[1 | 2 | 3 | 4 (i) | 4 (ii) | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12]

How would jade react to El slowly dying during playful land and how would riddle react once they come back and she’s in a coma?
I mean… he’s definitely gonna be surprised by how horrified and pissed he actually is by it, considering he’s most likely from a mer mafia family and thus has most definitely witnessed death before. She’s the biggest wildcard he’s ever met and the most interesting thing to happen to NRC in the two years he’s been there.
She knew what was going to happen and tried to stop them once, twice, thrice, and then tried yet AGAIN when they started to attack the gate only to have her ticket RIPPED by Fellow because he knew she wasn’t gonna misbehave. Jade gonna be like, Oh, she’s cursed? To, oh DAMN she’s CURSED. Because blood is immediately just gonna start spilling past her lips as soon as the mask forms and she’s just gonna CRUMPLE and then they’re stuck in a cage staring at one another and she’s doing her best to sass Fellow despite growing weaker and weaker and it’s OBVIOUS she’s not doing well and that she’s actually dying and oh HELL she’s actually dying.
Jade JUST got on her good side after giving her the spooks for so long. Now they’re all turning into wooden puppets and she’s quite literally DYING. It might be freakier if ROSE PATTERNS start carving themselves in the wood. Like Fellow comments that’s not supposed to happen and then she coughs up petals and it’s like, “Oh. Oh that explains it.”
Anyways. They’re trauma bonding via dying/transforming together and sassing the hell out of Fellow and when El actually does die and they’re all freed from the puppet curse, Jade AND Floyd most likely do the most damage to the “Boss” when everyone goes to beat him up. It’s gonna make their interactions in Book Three kind of funny like,
Jade: “My apologies, Eleanora. It isn’t personal-“
El: “nope.”
Jade: “Pardon?”
El: “First name privileges have been revoked. It’s back to “Miss Quince” for you, traitor.”
Jade: “….Oh my. How sad. I am merely following orders. Ah, well. I suppose this is personal now. I was quite enjoying our little friendship. Very well, Miss Quince.”
Floyd: “Don’t really wanna squeeze Shrimpy… but Azul said so. Sigh…. Jade, I’mma take the wolf and crabby. You deal with Shrimpy.”
El and Deuce: “Oh SHIT-“
Also Riddle is going to be very upset, like… rage tears kinda mad. But everyone’s already been punished enough, though he probably uses his UM on Ace, Trey, and Cater because they’re his students and they didn’t turn back even though Eleanora told them to.

Obligatory Disclaimer #1: Yes, there is a lot of misogyny in the way people talk about the "likability" of female characters. Women in stories can and should be complex, flawed, nuanced, and human, not (just) "likable" (or "sexy" or "mother" or whatever other one-dimensional trope).
Obligatory Disclaimer #2: Yes, I know that an opinion expressed by a character in a story is not necessarily being supported by the narrative itself, or the author, and that people with piss-on-the-poor reading comprehension get this wrong. Good reading comprehension means being able to tell the difference.
Now that we've got that out of the way.
Doesn't it seem like "Female characters don't have to be LIKABLE, you illiterate misogynist!" is often a Privileged Feminist way to silence criticism of... very mainstream bigoted attitudes being presented uncritically in the narrative by being put in the voices of designated "unlikable female characters"?
I love a complex, nuanced, flawed female character. I love an outright villainous female character. I love a character whose flaws and prejudices are slowly picked apart by the narrative. I do not love having the classism, sizeism, and ableism I deal with every day served back to me in Feminist Fiction.
I do not love trying to point out "Hey, this award-winning book you all love, I don't actually like the way the protagonist talks about the working-class fat man. Or the younger woman with anxiety. Or the acquaintance with a disabled child and, like, linoleum floors or something." (Why do I just have all those examples at the ready?)
And being met with "Female characters don't have to be LIKABLE, you illiterate misogynist. Try reading some Serious Literature instead of your fanfic romance YA smut beach reads!"
"Uh, okay, well, it's not so much about the character being likeable as about the way the narrative doesn't seem to challenge the character's, I must reiterate, very widely held prejudices, that makes it seem less like a depiction of a flawed character and more like an uncritical replication of those very widely held prejudices --"
"It's a LITERARY PERSPECTIVE, GOD, didn't you go to SCHOOL? Do you think Lolita is a love story? Do you think Fight Club is about how awesome fighting is?"
"Well, no, but, for example, the way the character was so emotionally abusive to her fat daughter and her neurodivergent son --"
"Uggggh, you don't understand ANYTHING, women don't have to be PERFECT MOTHERS, she's supposed to represent HOW REAL WOMEN FEEL in the face of UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS OF PERFECT MOTHERHOOD!"
"So... the unquestioned-by-the-narrative elitism, classism, sizeism, ableism, and ageism are supposed to be... going against societal expectations?"
"OBVIOUSLY! That's how REAL WOMEN REALLY FEEL!"
"I'm a real woman, and I don't feel that way."
"UGGGGGH, YOU ILLITERATE MISOGYNIST, FEMALE CHARACTERS DON'T HAVE TO BE RELATABLE!"

My mom getting a new place is kinda making me anxious I think she thinks I’m gonna move in w her instead of my dad 😭 and I’m not sure why I don’t want to. Cuz she’s way better. But I don’t. And I feel responsible I think and plus my sisters will never favor my mom over my dad… so we’d live apart. but I’m 20 years old I can live whatever I want. But. But but but
#idk I really like our house too. it’s great. it’s exactly my style. I would miss it LMAO#but again my mom is just.. she’s so much more organized and she and my stepdad actually get stuff done#and take care of themselves. living w her would be more like we’re roommates and not how it is w my dad#who needs to be taken care of and doted on like a child. my sisters too but I don’t think they’d survive living without me at my dads 💀#or they’d be really pissed at me. at the least#my dads house is constantly horrible so messy so so so bad no free counterspace anywhere can barely walk thru the house and cat vomit#everywhere. unless I take care of all of it. I can’t have company over unless I know a week in advance so I can make it look like a normal#house. and at my moms it’s never like that. it’s messier than average sure but it’s never disgusting like that#people are always telling me not to do anything and let my family learn to clean up after themselves but if I don’t it will just get worse#and worse. they’ll wait weeks before doing anything. it’s embarrassing. and depressing. if I let it go long enough I am miserable every day#after being homeless or on the verge of homelessness for 10 years my dad can’t even appreciate the fantastic house we have 😭#he has to fuck it all up. it’s not 100% his fault bc my sisters do fuck all but he DID teach them to be this way. the only reason I do#anything is because I snapped out of planning to kill myself and realized that I needed to be there for my sisters. so I started being like#their parent more and more. but they still never learned to unload the dishwasher or take out the trash without screaming about it.#I’m just very overwhelmed and nervous about this move. I also feel horrible as if I’m disappointing my mom if I don’t move in. I don’t want#to disappoint her any more than I already have..#she is soooo excited about giving me a room the basement so I can have my bunnies there..

there are so many layers to dabihawks as a ship like i dont even know where to start with it
like. like. like. hawks idolized endeavor and Dabi is Touya and that gets much worse if you accept the (headcannon?) that Keigo and Touya were friends during their academy era. and the ideal of endeavor helped Keigo survive the commission and Dabi knows exactly what he’s like. and their whole relationship Dabi knew that Keigo was playing triple agent so he was just. he knew that the entire time and hawks thought he trusted him.
and horikoshi confirmed in an interview that Dabi thought that twice would be safe *because* Keigo was there despite the fact that he knew that hawks was a triple agent which implies such a sense of trust and then Dabi tore up his wings and destroyed his quirk and ended his career.
if you accept the academy headcannon that adds an entirely new dimension to it about wether or not hawks knows and wether or not he tells him he knows who he is and the fact that Touya definitely never told him about his dad and if so and hawks knows that means that their entire relationship was colored by the fact that hawks thinks he has the coolest dad ever and chose to become a murderer anyway
