So remember how I said previously that there were only three movies that have made me cry? Yeah. Four. There are now four movies that have made me cry.

underfell is actually a really cool concept, the reason i hate it is how everyone focuses on edgy sans instead of everyone else. pacifist flowey sounds so cool!! and i also just love the idea of frisk having scary dog privilege lol. and frisk challenging the ways of the underground in a much more intense way... so fucking cool. but when you go in the tag it is basically ALL sans. disappointment at its finest but that's every undertale au so
YEAH its soo so fun to explore with the worldbuilding and how the characters’ different motivations would affect the overall story but there is NOTHING its all the short sweaty guy :( yea he has his moments of cool shit but other characters can too!! just give ‘em a chance!!!

LOL I feel like such an old curmudgeon, but every time a bunch of gendies like a decade younger than me start joining the fanbase of something I've liked for a really long time, it suddenly goes to hell 💀
(I just remembered that I ranted about this once before, but it keeps happening!)

Your time travel au is my favorite of all time! I was looking for it in my favorites and I was re reading the comics and just everytime I get goosebumps!
thank you so much! It makes me so happy to hear people keep coming back to it :) It's taking me a long time to make, but it encourages me so much to see people still thinking about it!!

i love nimona
#i'm going 2 ramble here in the tags ok. okay? ok#god. look. i went into this movie thinking 'yeah yeah obv trans allegory woohoo' thinkin that's great! but#idk. i thought it would be something that could be brushed aside or sanitized easily maybe. y'know? like passed off as another kids movie#and i thought maybe other trans folks could relate 2 the movie and i was like ok that's cool let's watch it and. it was just#that one scene.#everyone talked abt how they cried and how it really Hit and i didn't get it until then#at the statue#i cried. a lot. and i never do that w media and i don't mean that to be edgy or whatever kssdfkjg but just#oh fuck#they Get It#that part. it reached into my soul and grabbed that core part of me and Tugged.#it Hurt and i felt it. the exhaustion. ready to give up. the cry nimona let out. i cried because i got it. and then i cried harder because#i'd give anything for a ballister in my life#my thoughts are 'they got us in the second half ngl' basically KSDJHFKSJDHFKSD#first half of the movie? great! but second half? oh. oh it punches u in the face over and over and gets better and better#it's so. SO good. god. i don't know when everything clicked 4 me i don't think it was a singular moment but. man. oh man#i need to rewatch that immediately#instantly a favorite. shit#it's so unapologetically nimona. it's so Itself and it's not sorry and i love it and it feels so special and i'm holding it so close#there's 2 much to gush about in these tags there's not enough space but just know. i am Insane about this#sap says#god. fuck

my favorite thing about nimona is that they didn't give her a backstory to why she was a shapeshifter. just that she was. it was her normal reality that she had lived for over a thousand years. that despite doing nothing wrong she was labeled as a monster from the beginning of time. the entire kingdom was only built to protect the world from her just wanting to exist free to be whatever she wanted.
this movie isn't even a trans allegory at this point, it is The transgender movie.

Idk if this has been asked before but anything you wanna say about Lycion? like I love how he's basically a trans allegory
I love it too! I love Lycion so much, all the canaries to be honest, they're my favorite gender.
Here's his extra from the adventurer's Bible for those who haven't seen it
Tumblr media
I think people smarter than me have made great analysis of his character and how it relates to being trans/body dysmorphia. But I'm really happy he got a body where he feels more comfortable in, and I love the bit from the beastmen monster tidbit where Laios judges him for not being an accurate furry and Lycion calls him an wannabe lmao. Get his ass Lycion
I am also completely in love with his friendship with Fleki. Makes me really happy to see an intense friendship between opposite genders cause it's so rare. And they're both so precious.
Tumblr media
Getting a little off topic but I can't with the canaries... Did you know Otta is Butch/Masc presenting? I couldn't tell because the Elves are all so androgynous I assumed the short hair was normal but apparently its an active choice for her to look more masculine I love it.
Tumblr media
It's more obvious in the modern clothing drawings
Tumblr media
Sorry I got side-tracked, it's cause these are the canaries to me

one of my favorite parts of nimona is that she never explains her backstory to ballister. the audience sees all of it, but nimona is never put in the position of having to beg for ballister’s trust back by baring all of her past and her reasons.
in fact, bal is seen as in the wrong for failing to hold up the truths of who she is in the present over whatever her past was rumored to be.
just. what a good choice for a movie that’s a trans allegory, but also in general as a commentary on people growing and changing.
