My favorite moment in all of httyd rtte is in S3 E8 "Stryke Out" when Hiccup finally gets free from the holding area for the fighting dragons and says "This. Ends. Now!" And the music immediately crescendos as the wild dragons he's spent the episode befriending fly out from behind him to help Toothless and Sleuther

It just makes me so happy

(More in depth about this episode is in the tags but silly lighthearted is what I wanted originally)

#this entire episode has always been one of my favorites #toothless like almost reverting to a wild dragon when hes scared and put in danger #only to have him stop when he sees the FEAR in sleuthers eyes as hes jumping for the killing blow #sleuther closing his eyes in acceptance #the parallels between toothless and hiccup as they prepare to kill something theyre so deathly terrified of #but ultimately is just as scared as they are and just as fucked up my the system #i have a lot of feelings #i love httyd #my perfect show in so many ways #httyd #how to train your dragon #httyd rtte #rtte #hiccup horrendous haddock iii #httyd toothless #triple stryke #sleuther

No but like every time I think about Splinter and what he had to go through just to keep the boys alive, my heart hurts for him so badly. Is he perfect? No not at all, but none of them are and by god does he love his sons.

The fact that all of them are alive, and grew to thrive despite the circumstances surrounding them is a testament of how much Splinter loves his boys. He raised four babies following the most traumatic time of his life, all alone with nothing but the sewers to house them (to hide them.) I feel like he’s not given the credit he deserves for all he’s done.

And I get that it’s easy to hold up his flaws and faults when it comes to parenting, I myself like looking into them because flawed characters are super interesting and said flaws make them more realistic and engaging, but he tries, and again, so many others would have given up on the boys or failed along the way but Splinter didn’t.

He’s their father, for all his faults he did his damndest to make sure they survived.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt splinter #rise splinter #he’s not perfect as I’ve said #and he’s got a whole slew of flaws and faults #but he’s a person - we are all flawed #he loves his sons dearly dearly dearly even if he struggles along the way to show that #parenting is not easy! especially as a traumatized mutant who is forced to do it alone #side note but I think this is one of the reasons why it kiiiiiinda ruffles my feathers to see so many people assign parentification to Raph #and in turn make Splinter out to be way worse and way more distant than he is in canon?#like idk I just don’t see what so many others see ig but maybe that’s just me #i guess my thoughts are like- let parents have flaws without villainizing them?#they’re still parents even if they mess up?#we can discuss the repercussions of a parents actions on a child while not casting that parent as an awful person #parents are peopleeee #I could go on but yeahhh #idk it bothers me seeing splinter’s efforts undermined when he’s been through so much #idk if ppl realized this by now but I love me some flawed characters #tho I do think in this fandom the ones whose faults are discussed the most are like #Splinter mostly then Draxum then Leo #of the main cast #and in Splinters case in particular his faults are made to cover his good qualities which makes me sad #because he is SO INTERESTING #they’re all flawed characters and tbh so interesting because their flaws are ALSO their strengths in many aspects

‘the black bastard of the wall’ moniker is the exact opposite of the ‘white wolf’ moniker and this perfectly highlights the irreconcilable differences between book Jon and show Jon

#‘white wolf’ highlights his stark heritage parallels him to robb and tries to align him with perfect moral goodness #‘the black bastard of the wall’ is only about jon. it has nothing to do with his stark heritage nor ghost. it’s only about jon #it’s literally white vs black #stark/winterfell/moral goodness vs bastard (targaryen bastard to be specific)/the wall/moral greyness and the duality of it all #he’s already a snow and he’s surrounded by white up north with a white direwolf so being the black bastard and dressing all in black #is perfect imagery of the duality theme in jon’s storyline #d&d rly wanted their jon to always stand in robb’s shadow 🙄#while book jon has an international reputation while still stuck at the wall #my boy is stuck in westerosi alaska and he’s got ppl across the sea yapping about him for pastime #that’s fame baby #asoiaf #a song of ice and fire #GOT critical #jon snow #book jon snow #and i wanna know what other monikers george plans to give jon #while i wouldn’t be that suprised if the ‘white wolf’ did come from george it’s the way it’s jon’s only moniker in GOT that pisses me off #‘the black bastard of the wall’ supremacy #the white wolf seems kinda lame in comparison but say jon gets it if his hair turns white like some theorize #if that happens then i’ll like it more cause it’ll be about jon!#like… the young wolf is about robb. not grey wind. the starks are compared to wolves and robb is a young king and he just so happens to have #a direwolf. in the show jon’s ‘white wolf’ moniker is honestly more about ghost than jon! and that’s ughhh #but robb had the wolf moniker first so it feels once again like the showrunners were placing jon in robb’s shadow #UGHHH I HATE THE SHOW AND HOW IT RUINED THE WAY SO MANY PPL VIEW THE CHARACTERS #let jon be the black bastard !!#his color was always black and the wall is his !!#put some respect on his name and his badass moniker #i don’t want to see anymore shit about the white wolf cause that’s only d&d’s shit invention at this point #valyrianscrolls

bill x ford x stan love triangle real....

#ptsd barnum is nasty work #seriously though I've been thinking about the character implications of this trifecya for years (in both a shipping & non-shipping sense)#like. for ford to effectively plug the gaping whole that stan left behind with bill #who is so very much like stan in so many ways #and then for stan to be the one who takes out bill in the end....it's so perfect #bill hardly ever acknowledges stan's existence in the show. & when he does it's never in a terribly personal way.#so to see (read) him malding over stan like this is SO great. literally making all of my headcanons real for me #gravity falls #tbob #the book of bill #stancest #billford #dumb #these aren't my pictures of the book btw. I got them from twitter

if I said that I think Amanda was a near equally horrible parent to Spock as Sarek was but just in a different way, would I get pelted with rocks or what

#star trek #star trek tos #star trek the original series #star trek sarek #s'chn t'gai family #I love Sarek and Amanda so much but they were not good parents #Amanda gets off free with the fandom because she's sympathetic and human #but Sarek has many instances of showing how much he loves Spock that are completely ignored because he's “the bad parent”#they both loved him #its just people end up making Amanda this perfect angel parent #as if she didn't try to emotionally manipulate Spock in jtb #and also like. yk how people say Sarek hates Spock for being human #which is my personal least favorite interpretation and not supported by canon #but I digress #Amanda shows way more distaste for Spock being as vulcan as he is than Sarek ever showed for Spock being too human #NOTABLY NEITHER OF THEM HATE SPOCK FOR BEING HALF HUMAN/HALF VULCAN #but its a characterization im always surprised to see in Sarek when Amanda shows something similar way more than he does

you will NEVER see anyone writing paragraphs after paragraphs hating on keefe like they do with sophie.

#nah im sorry but i need to get this off my chest #how is it that SOPHIE always gets more hate compared to other characters or yk the ACTUAL ANTAGONISTS of the story?#why do ppl keep bringing up the fact that “she has too many powers” or “all the boys love her” TO SHIT ON HER #is sophie's character perfect? no #should sophie's writing be criticized? honestly yes take it up with shannon #but you ask a dumb bitch why they hate sophie and they'll start giving the funniest reasons ever #and it really makes you understand that these bitches will never say any of this if she was a boy #why do y'all expect so much from sophie #she does one mistake and everyone comes for her #she tries to do something and everyone comes for her #she tries to be friendly and everyone comes for her #she gets together with fitz and keefe and everyone comes for her #she manages to use weapons and fight properly and everyone comes for her #she shows a little emotion and everyone comes for her #hell she DOESN'T DO ANYTHING and EVERYONE COMES FOR HER.#“why did you mention keefe” oh bc yk he does a million mistakes and no one bats an eye #you can just clearly see the way this fandom treats sophie and keefe #kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #sophie foster

I don't think Jayce and Viktor literally died. They were kind of pulled into another dimension/astral plane/whatever you call it. We see older Viktor, and while it could be another Viktor, I think it would be more meaningful if it was our Viktor, finally free from the arcane, going through the universe with Jayce, fixing timelines together. Kind of like a cosmic mission.

#jayvik #arcane spoilers #arcane season 2 #arcane #the yaoi isn't as doomed as it seems #i mean arcane s2 wasn't perfect #and jayvik left me feeling colder than expected #they played a huge role in the end and they barely had screentime this season????#i will always love jayvik tho #otp otp i adore them #jayvik screentime isn't the only issue I have with season 2 tho #the way piltover vs zaun was treated.........#“omg if we work together we can solve our differences” what differences tho there was a clear power imbalance and police brutality I'm????#plus jink's “death” was kinda forced and weak?? so last minute??? like I know she isn't actually dead but yeah #and sevika????? where's my wife?????? she did NOTHING on act 3???? did she even talk????#also mel has never been my favourite bc they mainly used her as a plot device and a romantic interest to a male character which suckss #but in s1 she started to show vulnerability in the end??? even early s2??? like girl where is all of that??#that's WAY more interesting than the “tough serious warrior” character she's become #anyway everything happened too quickly #too much time spent on noxus shit #ooooh i wonder what the next show is going to be about hmmmm #and so many things weren't explained #everything surrounding viktor and the arcane and what happened to jayce and viktor was kinda foggy #also wtf is sky doing there???? it should have been little viktor or something idk #plus where are caitlyn's dictator arc and vi's boxer arc?? they barely lasted???#and maddie should have been more prominent if she was working with ambessa? we barely saw her (or ambessa) manipulate caitlyn #also ambessa's plan wasn't 100% clear either so I'm guessing that plot line (and singed's???) will appear again sometime

Eyy, King Reaper and his beloved Mage Geno designs <3

#new age au #Geno is very tall (tall Geno supremacy <3) and Reaper usually floats so he's just slightly taller than Geno on any normal day <3 #if he unties his robe in the back it drags along the floor at the perfect height to feign being very tall-#ohh I have so many thoughts about them :]#Geno's magic manifests as crystals so he wears some on his outfit (and keeps more in his pockets)#the black and purple ones on his belt are meant to be a little reference to Reaper (and Dust. before meeting him he only has a black one-)#Geno also uses a Cane! he's insanely skilled and powerful but on sone days magic fatigue finally catches up to him and he has to use it #the black half-robe was also the only accessory Reaper could convince Geno to adopt from his kingdom- that and the Sandals haha-#(I like to think Error made Geno's scarf-)#and ofc Reaper...#he's been ruling for so long that he lives in comfort rather than appearance because. i mean. no one is going to doubt him at this point #he leaves his ribcage exposed as a show of his confidence in his rule (direct access to his soul basically-) but also because. well.#he thinks he's eye-candy 🙏#and in his kingdom the crown/sign of royalty are those olive branch circlets #he wears his over his hood usually. Geno recieved one when Reaper officially finished courting him. Dust would eventually get one. though #for him it's more the equivalent of a wedding ring since his loyalty lies with Nightmare still and he has little official ruling power in #Reaper's kingdom.#oh! Reaper also wears a littlr band Geno made him once on his ribs. it's a nice red gem that he's vaguely aware is actually a tracking spel #Geno thought he was being subtle about it. he. in fact. was not. but Reaper let him get away with it 🙏#oh!!! last thing #Geno sometimes wears a nice silk wrap over his bad eye that's a nice clean white. it usually depends if he's doing magic or not #because his eye tends to get melty again if he strains during casting. and he's always overdoing it lmao-#anyways yeah #mm lied one more note #Reaper's wings are optional. kinda like a manifestation of his Ecto in a way since he doesn't need them to float #more just sonething to make him more regal or appear more threatening!#now I'm done #my favorite goofballs <3 #spot!drawn #my art

You can pry girl dad Mark Winters out of my cold dead hands.

#Okay hear me out he was one and he would be still if whatever happened to mama winters didn’t happen they were a super close family he was a #girl dad and then tragedy. And things were difficult for him and then obviously he became a villain. So he and Ashe are more distant now an #their relationship is more strained but at the end of the day he loves Ashe so much and would do anything for her as long as she got to be #safe and happy. He’s a villain but he’s letting her hang out with the prime defenders because he knows they’re good for her! He became a #villain so he’d be able to support her. He loves her so much and he has an odd way of showing it but I’ve seen just how much this character #loves his child so much despite it all he’s not perfect no one is but he does everything he does so Ashe will be safe and secure and once a #girl dad always a girl dad he loves his trans daughter very much and he’s always supported her and he’s still a girl dad no matter what #I just have so many feelings about Mark Wavelength #I take back the thing I said about them saving bino instead of wavelength back I take it back so hard oh my god #jrwi #jrwi prime defenders #mark winters #wavelength #I JUST READ A FIC AND HE WAS SUCH A SHITTY DAD IN IT HES NOT HES A GIRL DAD WHO LOVES HIS DAUGHTER SO MUCH #I’m a Mark Winters defender and will always be one from now on #Mark wavelength I’m only on episode fifteen don’t do something heinous that makes me eat my words please I believe in you

I was just ambushed within the turbulent halls of my own mind by some headcanons about rye ingellvar's childhood that did 15000000 points of psychic damage to me and my heart personally and also made me almost sure of how I want to play it all at the end (very very differently from how I imagined going in!). some 'oh holy fuck this changes everything' rocking my own world bullshit going on in my neurons right now I'm reeling

#I'm sorry to say that despite what I expected I think the dread wolf might be going down violently on my first run???#not because *I* love solas any less but because of who rye is and some of the twists I know happen down the line #which does make for a neat thing b/c I meant to play the crow I'm going with second as initially incredibly hostile #and then growing to feel for him and redeeming him at the end.#so if rye starts out very reasonable and sympathetic and then is brought to 'haha. no. fuck you forever for that in particular' at the end #...a pleasing cosmic symmetry in it I must admit. perfect and also makes me feel a bit sick #I'll try to put together something coherent eventually but for now #it's sort of a 'my name is ellaryen ingellvar you killed the guy #that my brain went 'close enough welcome back beloved and much missed deceased father figure' over. prepare to despair and die'#I think just the killing part might not have done it but everything that comes after? rye is a chill guy until he finally decides #that enough is fucking *enough*. and that was the most enough of all time for them #it also explains rye's accent (one of his primary caregivers growing up was a dwarf)! so many birds with one stone here #also I am so fucking sad now and I did it entirely to myself. I love fiction I love games (embarassingly genuine)#dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #oc: ellaryen ingellvar #thank god that the romanced solas playthrough is the second one tho that does make things less dire haha #adaar would have given it the good old college try to get solas to change his mind right to the end I think #but even his capable hands and politician's mind could not hold back the sheer beware the fury of a patient man storm #that is about to hit solas for the shit he just pulled. I think rye and solas are -- as it turns out -- TOO alike in many ways #...solas buddy I'm so sorry I'll come back for you on the second playthrough and make it right I swear fhsak #it's just that a second dead dwarf dad has joined the chat to haunt the narrative (and this time it's fucking personal frfr)#it's almost scary how quick I've gotten attached to my rook tho. I've waited A DECADE to save this bald elf man from himself #and then rye shows up with steel in his normally kind eyes going 'no. I want that fucker *dead*'. and I just go anything for you babyboy #I'll see what we can do. unspeakable stuff

A Biltmore Christmas may be the first Hallmark movie to drive me to fanfic.

#hallmark #a biltmore christmas #time travel #WHERE IS MY POST-CREDITS SCENE SHOWING HOW MARGARET REACTS???#she was one of the best parts of the movie!#you need at least five minutes of her screaming for joy!#also clearly there was a conspiracy of people in the past who knew about the time travel thing so how did that work?#what about that bearded guy on the crew who was CLEARLY another time traveler?#(there is no way that facial hair came from 1947)#also where does the relationship go from there?#how do you adjust?#does tour guide riker help out?#so many unanswered questions can fit into the last scenes of that film and i need answers #also just overall: thanks to people who said this one was worth seeking out because my goodness what a delight #that movie oozed charm #i think maybe my true core fictional love is classic '30s/'40s film because i was digging that vibe #the banter! the patter! the zingers! the perfect blend of cynicism and sentimentality #some of the background stuff was too modern but also some was spot on #that guy who played claude looks like he was born to be a classic Hollywood film star #the leading lady did not fit the vibe at all but she had great chemistry with the movie's leads so i can see why they cast her #the old-timey writer dude was charming #the main lady might be a new favorite hallmark actress (there's only one other on the list)#(watched part of a different film with her in it and she seems to put some of that classic hollywood sass into her roles)#i wasn't sold on the male lead at first but the writing came through for him #when he sits in the chair behind her! when he's trying to guess her personality traits?#charming and absolutely spot-on for the vibe #(the fact that they cast hallmark regulars in the remake is hilarious and also sad because it looks so much worse than the original)#anyway great time had a blast will definitely be rewatching

I don’t even fully know why but “what do I do when I miss you so much?” / “Just wait, and pray desperately” was a knife to my heart in the best way.

#crash landing on you #my grandma once said most of life was waiting and praying #and when he said it it just resonated so deeply #I think because. it’s not like a revelation or anything #but I think it’s just because she was suffering so much and had suffered so much #and so in that moment #he just takes care of her so completely and gives her hope. and not a false hope #a true one #and on deeper reflection the ending does work within the context of this (in my opinion) most powerful scene #/ apex of the show #it’s just the tone that’s a little wrong. that’s too aesthetic-y.#because the kind of steady way he keeps taking care of her from afar. and the slow build of her recovering but continuing to hope #couldn’t lead them anywhere except a happy ending. even if the final pieces of it couldn’t be unraveled (or put together)#by the show’s writing. so it just kind of has to fade to black so to speak #because the characters have been so steady and consistent a) in their personalities motivations and desires #and b) in their love for each other! that never falters or betrays a false note #and it’s the truest thing you’re left with. which is why—again—I actually think the problem might have been the tone #I would have gone for something more muted. I would have had them be talking and/or arguing a little more in their old way #to keep and sustain the idea that there is more work ahead for them that we’re just not going to see #but that is ultimately a kind of nitpick. and the take me to the lakes vibe of that final #scene is also not untrue.#also circling back for a second can I just SAY. that I love the balance of their vulnerabilities #there are such clear and distinct times where one of them is stronger and the other more vulnerable #and it’s sooooo perfect to watch and gives you many instant layers #anyway I’m crying in this Chili’s tonight (*my bed at 7:00 am)

This might be the first cdrama where I think damn they need a couple more episodes

#you are my lover friend #cdrama #I feel like they rushed through the whole financial crime #I mean it went well but they could’ve definitely fleshed that out in at least 2/3 episodes #it just felt too much boom boom done for something that’s been building for like 10 episodes #30 episodes was way too short like I feel like they have soo many tiny plots unresolved #this should’ve been 36 episodes #but the conclusion was nice #it was a fun watch #friends to lovers > the superior trope imo #the act of service in this drama was no joke #the kisses were sooo cute bro #10/10 would recommend #people were saying Cheng hui and sheng Nina’s relationship was not concluded BUT #I think it was a perfect ending for them #they are so cute tho #I wish we would get more shows where couples are together before the show starts #their relations was sooo cute to me #I wouldn’t mind a show just based off the dynamics of Jiang Yanan and Feng WeiRan #tones rant

Digitalised + coloured + redesigned version of my Suiren and Vaatu sketch from two days ago, as promised!!

Coming up with Suiren’s design was a very long process of trying and failing because after you’ve drawn 9+ different versions of one character, the creativity starts to run a little dry, but I’m actually really proud of this one, she looks absolutely adorable <3

(Also yeah I did mostly just scribble Vaatu’s pattern because who has the energy to draw the all out accurately. Not me, that’s who, I’m chronically tired. People who draw him on the regular have my utmost respect. He’s still a funky little guy though :D)

Bonus, Raava incessantly screaming inside Suiren (and being completely ignored because Suiren is tired of her) while all this is happening:

#and yeah I did say I’d do a fuckass background but all my energy went to figuring out Suiren’s design #plus I suck at backgrounds so.. woe. LoK screenshot be upon ye #my art #artists on tumblr #the legend of korra #avatar suiren au #original character #sotrl suiren #vaatu #I don’t really know what to say in these tags lmao #usually I reach the tag limit really really easily but between my previous post and answering that ask I’ve ran out of things to say #someone please indulge me in this au I have Way Too Many Thoughts about it #hmm…#you know. I think people often make different avatar aus because they dislike Korra or think she’s a bad avatar #I don’t. I love Korra. I would kill and die for her #(says the red lotus stan. yes I’m well aware. no need to call me out)#and I think she’s a good avatar who was dealt a shitty hand both in universe and by the show’s production team #I’m making this au BECAUSE I love Korra. if Suiren is the avatar Korra gets to be a normal SWT girl #she’ll get to grow up with her parents. not isolated and degraded all the time for not being perfect. maybe she’d have a sibling or two #and Suiren gets spared her sotrl trauma too. win win for everyone!!#(I return Suiren gets the weight of the world on her shoulders lmao. but it’s fine. 1. she isn’t alone in it. she has her family #2. three quarters of the LoK threats are basically automatically eliminated for her. the RL are her parents. she fuses with Vaatu #and all she has to do to defeat Kuvira is to take her dress off �� /hj. basically. she’ll be okay. better than in sotrl at least)#also look. I love Suiren. she’s my dear child who’s been with me since I was 12. of course I wanna make her the main character in everything #and dark avatar Korra AUs have been done countless times before me. Kat’s doing one right now!! I just wanna do something that’s my own #and also I wanna focus less on pain and trauma for once and more on the sheer hilarity of the shenanigans that will occur post-fusion #cause this isn’t Adumbration where Korra lets Raava go and fuses with Vaatu instead. here Suiren’s got both of them at the same time #and they have 10000 years’ worth of grievances to air out. it’s like living with your divorced parents #trust me I would know. except mine aren’t divorced. they’re Worse and everyone wishes they’d just separate #anyway. that aside. Suiren’s not getting any sleep any time soon while those two duke it out
