#nerd or thembo

[uroboros-if]

ROs on a scale from nerd to thembo?

Salvatore - Thembo. They're under a lot of pressure to be smart, but it's a struggle! They just want to do good by people.

Luciel - Nerd. Likes to collect and observe things just for the fun of it. On rare occasions, they can go on a tangent about things they like.

Ciocana - Closet nerd, also likes to observe things and study them from afar, but they will never admit it. Also monologues at times.

Alessi - Thembo. They're a little head empty, especially when it comes to things they're really passionate about. While they can be rational, and have to be as a leader, they have a lot of emotions... all the time. Aside from that, however, it may just be due to their lack of formal education.

Super fun to think about! Thanks for asking 🥺♥️

ROs on a scale of nerd to thembo?

I wouldn’t really say that any of them fall into the thembo category due to them all being bastard-adjacent pretty intelligent…if I had to try though:

Thembo -> Nerd

Aeryn -> Niran -> Kyan -> Hayle -> Elex

Based on pure vibes though, Elex has thembo energy ✨

Someone should do one of those big poll contests but for ultimate himbo

[specshroom]

🪶 Bird hybrid thoughts

🪶 Bird hybrid lover who is very cranky and insecure when they start moulting. You reassure them by taking warm baths with them to soothe their itchy skin. You just listen to them grumble while running your hands through their wings to gently dislodge any loose feathers.

🪶 Parrot lover that can't stop preening and nuzzling you when they get closer to mating season.

🪶 Peacock men who are soooo pampered and spoilt. They expect to be lavished and admired and they usually are. Peacock man who adores and worships his comparatively plain looking peacock wife.

🪶 Vulture guys who are scary and mean. Definitely not the type you want to introduce to your parents. They're terrible teases and like to play with their prey.

🪶 Falcons who are very proud and powerful, they boast a huge wing span and lightning flight speeds. Usually very athletic types. Can be put under the himbo/herbo/thembo category.

🪶 Crow partner who looks super scary and mysterious but once you get to know them their actually a huge nerd and kinda goofy.

🪶 Very hyper hummingbird hybrids who are usually small and very energetic. Can't get them to stay still or on the ground for even a minute. They usually have a sweet tooth.

🪶 Seagull fishermen and tropical penguin surfer dudes.

🪶 Introverted owls who stick to themselves and like lazy mornings, lazy days and lazy nights. Can come off as cold and indifferent but they're just not very sociable.

🪶 Charming song birds who serenade their lovers with their beautiful voices and colourful feathers.

🪶 Doves being hopeless romantics. Dove couples are known for their annoying and dramatic pda.

🪶Tall and graceful crane hybrids. Very sophisticated and sometimes snobbish.

🪶 A human who patiently watches their hybrid bird boyfriend do a mating dance for them. While they don't fully understand it, they appreciate the effort and their lover appreciates their willingness to go along with his traditions.

[heartfullofleeches]

Fratbro Darling is too good for this world (and their yans). Beefy thembo who literally loses sleep if they ignore someone in need. Their yans abuse their caring ways to their advantage for scraps of time out of their busy schedule. Asking them for directions, to carry their books, walk them home. Reader doesn't have the heart to say no unless they've already promised their help elsewhere, but they still try to make sure everyone's cared for because that's just the type of person they are

-

Yan Classmate: Thanks for walking me home- I hope it's not too much trouble...

Fratbro Reader: Nah, it's all good. Having a stalker is no joke and I'm glad you have enough trust in me to ask

Yan Classmate: You're the only one I feel the safest around... I'm really sorry, but this whole thing's making it hard for me to be on my own.. Can you stay the night?

Fratbro Reader: Of course!

Yan Classmate: ...and sleep in my bed?

Fratbro Reader: whatever makes you comfortable

Yan Classmate: I'd feel really comfortable if you took your shirt off....

Fratbro Reader: Just gonna pretend I didn't hear that and get you to bed now-

-

They make sure nobody is left behind, gaining them favor with the outcast on campus. They show genuine interest in their quirky little hobbies and interests how could they not absolutely adore them.

Fratbro Reader: Hey, dude!

[Creep Yan screams out of reflex]

Fratbro Reader: Whoa, didn't mean to scare you. I just really liked those drawings you did of me so I asked around for your socials and found some of your comics

Creep Yan, pale as a sheet: y....you did?

Fratbro Reader: Yea! You got some real talent, man. Your anatomy skills are insane. For a while I thought I was looking at pictures of a real crime scene. The relationship between the murder and their crush is kinda cute to. I personally like the crush because we have the same initials. What a coincidence, right?

[Creep Yan - unsure if they should cry tears for joy or weep from the anxiety instead dry heaves as they pull out their notebook]

Creep Yan: t-there's more in here.. Just give me a minute to rip out a few pages

-

Fratbro Reader catches people checking them out at the gym and thinks they're just curious about their routine, and nor staring at their ass like it's a full course meal-

Nerd Yan: I'm gonna get stronger and be just like them! [Goes to the gym and almost lifts a weight only to lose the strength in their arms as Fratbro walks by in skin tight shorys

[Fratbro Reader - post work out, sweaty, and their shirt rolled up to their abdomen lifts the bar off them with no problem]

Fratbro Reader: Need some help, bud?

Nerd Yan, delirious from all their blood rushing elsewhere: ...God?

ROs on a scale from nerd to thembo?

💗 Aina is streetsmart and has good common sense and general like. deducing skills but she actively chooses to make some bad choices.

🦋 Bev is a little bit sillay. A little bit dumb. No common sense. different spectrum of thoughts entirely

🐺 Benji is practical smart, not so much book smart , but he has enough general knowledge from his life and ppl around him that he will make informed decisions (wee bit of a nerd for games though)

🐍 Hez is smart . 100% choose not to be most days cos of spite alone. Fake dummy. Gets annoyed when someone can't understand something he can.

Hez and Aina get along well in that regard :) Benji is always being considerate of others meanwhile Hez is actively tearing his hair out trying to communicate with Bev

ROs on a scale from nerd to thembo?

Nerd -> Thembo

E -> C -> N -> A

E and C are relatively intelligent, it's just that that C doesn't enjoy using their brain as much as E.

N is smart (in their own way), but growing up in the outskirts of the Kingdom doesn't give them much freedom to grow in terms of book smarts.

A is just no thoughts head empty. They will be able to think if you were to be so kind and share a brain cell with them lmao.

ROs on a scale from Nerd to thembo?

Hahah amazing!! 🤗

So 1 is very Nerd and 10 is the ultimate thembo (Bimbo or Himbo).

Zodiac — A solid 1. The greatest exemple of nerd if I ever seen one. That's a good thing though, it means the MC will be in good hands...

Ace — I think Ace leans a little bit more to the nerd side, so a 4. But that doesn't mean they won't gladly become a thembo if you give them reason to.

Mars — A 2. Mars is too focused on their plans of world domination and revenge to think of anything else, except the MC of course.

Stardom — This one's hard, guys. They are both a 1 and a 10. One of the most intelligent people on earth, but if you start flirting with them, it's over.

Archon — I think Archon is in the middle, they are a great tactician and knows all the ins and outs of combat and leadership, and they are not easily distracted, so a solid 5.

Wildcat — The ultimate example of head empty no thoughts (10), but secretly a pop culture enthusiast.

Paladin — 2, that's it. Good luck trying to get this nerd to do anything else than obsess over their collection of weapons.

Thanks for the question!! 🍒

ROs on a scale from nerd to thembo?

From most nerdy to most thembo

Nerd

Caspian: He the biggest nerd of all the City Mages probably. He could tell you the whole history of the world without even needing to look up any information up, and when you go to fact check him, he's correct about everything. It's the same with inventions and magic and the politics of long dead royal family lines from five hundred years ago.

Vivienne: Due to her position, she has to know everything, or at least appear that she knows everything. However, she is royalty, and so she's slightly sheltered and not always aware of how the average person goes about their life. Still, she's pretty perceptive and catches on quick.

Whisper: Xe certainly know things, especially things you don't like xem knowing, and yet xe sometimes fail to use xer brain. Common sense fails xem often, and you can't tell if it's part of the facade xe put on, or if xe really do just lose touch with reality sometime.

Mourning: Putting them last is so funny to me because their a God, but also...they're a God. Outside of their domain, they truly don't understand quite how the world works. It makes them ask questions and react to things in a way that's oddly charming in its ignorance, that sometimes it's almost easy to forget what they really are.

Thembo

Top 7 BEST Dragon Ball Transformations

Honorable mention: Yung King Piccolo

Does this count as a transformation?

Mecha Tao

Yup, the best villain in all of Dragon Ball also did this first. Eat your heart out, Frieza.

Wait, does this not count either??

Muscle Bottom Trunks

This is where Super Saiyan and its myriad iterations (including "SS2" and whatever you nerds call the version Goku and Gohan have when they emerge from the Room of Spirit and Time) would go, but I decided to choose just my favorite one instead.

I think this transformation has over half a dozen names: Super Saiyan Third Grade, Super Saiyan 1.5, Super Super Saiyan, Ultra Super Saiyan, lmao jesus christ, Power-weighted Super Saiyan, Power stressed Super Saiyan Bitch Super Saiyan, and somehow the list just keeps going on. But what I like most about it is that everyone can do it.

Well not the Super Saiyan part, you have to have a little bit of Saiyan in your brainpan to do that, but the getting big. Doing so makes you stronger, but also so much slower that the difference just doesn't matter (for those of you that just watch youtube videos, and don't read the fucking comic). Frieza is such a useless he/they thembo that he also mistook it for a legitimate transformation against Goku on Namek. Y'know, his 100% (this time for real guyz).

Golden Fuuureeeza

I railed against lazy recolors in my worst transformations list, but Frieza is the physical embodiment of sloth and affluenza. He was the strongest being in the universe by far barring an ancient alien prophecy for fucking decades. And what does he do with all that power? Well, ride around on a rascal scooter, of course, while sending endless swathes of Appule's to do his dirty work. Instead of lifting a finger for an hour and then being immortal FOREVER.

And that's why it works for me in all the ways Resurrection F didn't. He's supposed to be stupid and ostentatious. Dragon Ball Super writers, you're NOT.

Janemba

Frankly, this is the biggest glow up in Dragon Ball history. From lazy Buu clone to, well, admittedly a lazy clone of another great character. But he has a sword! And that moveset. And it's an actually good filler movie in which Hitler dies (again).

Just look at him

Legendary Super Saiyan

Why is greenish Super Saiyan soooooo coooool??? Well, I'll tell you why.

It's because it just is. Super Saiyan? Actually so cool. Green? Such a good color Victorian aristocrats were willing to kill themselves using a shade of it that contained arsenic. It was basically their version of Oceangate, but they all did it! We could only be so lucky nowadays. And the lore implications? Mmm, yeah. Yeah!

You see, in canon Goku did a little prophecy, but Toriyama can't help but be a great writer, so instead of just being the generic Chosen One a la every bad shonen we all know and love, he's not. He's just not. Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Trunks, baby Trunks, baby Goku, they all do it too. Turns out, Super Saiyan is something each and every Saiyan can do. And then filler happens, Broly shows up, and everyone sees that this is because he's the real Chosen Boy.

And he's green! And we all loved it so hard we got a quality version a century later.

Nice. That's history for you.

Great Ape

The OG. Look at this trendsetter. If this isn't the second best, what is? You're wrong.

Perfect Cell

It's perfect...
