perhaps the most important question i’ve ever asked:

does anyone have tips for people trying to stop being chronically late to everything in the world that aren’t weirdly judgmental and aggressive or flat out lies

[notahaterbutakvetcher]

Open letter to everyone silent on the pogram in LA yesterday (being Sunday, June 23rd), despite reblogging misinformation after misinformation about Israel’s unique evil:

I see you. I see how quiet you are. I see how afraid you are, how scary it is to comment on it, because of the backlash you might face for “not supporting the movement.” I see the indecision as you hover over the reblog button.

And I am calling you a coward for it.

How dare you refuse to acknowledge what is happening within your own movement. How dare you claim to be on the side of peace, and allow yourself to ignore what your own protesters are doing.

I see you, and I am disgusted with you.

[rosy-crow]

On one hand, I need to calm the fuck down about Sephiroth and stop giving into Twitter to debate lore. I KNOW I’m better than this lmao.

On the other hand, I see people genuinely angry about “how Crisis Core ruined Sephiroth by killing part of his agency through Genesis,” and “how having friends made him less cool,” and “how all the Compilation is humanizing him too much and taking away his mystery,” and “how he went evil for no reason,” and “how he was always an asshole that saw himself as superior to others and only broke down because he found out he wasn’t all that.”

I see unironic worship of “canon” traits he has that apparently mark him as a perverted alpha daddy dom sex god instead of the actual raging, delusional murderer with a loathing for all life he becomes for a reeeeeeeally key and important reason.

I see remarks like “I hate how First Soldier is ruining my favorite character and taking away more of his agency,” when said “favorite character” is Sephiroth’s most surface-level traits as a villain with no further depth and he has to be cool and perfect 100% of the time or else he isn’t Sephiroth anymore and he’s suddenly “badly written.”

That’s not the same character.

Yes, I know.

Why am I mad that one of the most beautifully designed and canonically objectified and powerfully portrayed and sensually voiced and thirstily fawned over characters in video game history is being reduced to singular traits???

I don’t know.

How can I demand the luxury of rage when faced with such odds.

What did I expect.

Yeah, this one’s on me.

Would be waiting for acheron brainrot ramble here

Is it time for Acheron brainrot ramble? It’s time for Acheron brainrot ramble. Prepare for the most stream of consciousness post ever, I had so much fun writing this she has taken over my consciousness and puppeted me for my own ends, and commanded me to demonstrate how peak she really is. So enjoy, hopefully I can get others to love Acheron just as much as I do.

I think there are three reasons why I like Acheron 1) she’s really fucking cool 2) I love characters who guide/mentor others 3) She’s charming as hell.

Hoyo you aren’t allowed to make characters this good.

The music in her trailer, her aesthetic, the amount of fire fucking one liners. THE COLOR RED (I’ll get into it)

“Find me, your end, my origin.” Who cooked here who wrote this who’s the chef please where’s the restaurant I’m eating this up

“On the still waters of oblivion, I guide the wandering souls” GRAHAJDJWJKSSW YES YOU DO OH MY GOD I CANT PUT INTO WORDS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS LINE SHUT UP EVERYONE SHUT UP. Like she literally is at the edge of existence fighting to help others find their future, I just. RAAAA

SHE CUTS A BLACK HOLE IN HALF?? HUHH AUGHH a black hole that’s the manifestation of meaninglessness in the universe, and she goes “nah” and fucking obliterates it?!!?

“I weep for the departed” Those who have died are gone, and slowly losing themselves even further. For decades, centuries, millennia, even, Acheron has witnessed this, and still cries for them, still guides them to the other side, even if the task itself is meaningless, because someone should do it, someone has to do it, and that someone is HER.

She saves Aventurine, she saves the Trailblazer, she saves the entirity of Penacony. Someone blessed by the manifestation of nonexistent dedicates her life to giving others a reason to live.

Aventurine asks her why people should bother living, if the dice are always weighted in a certain outcome, then why should we keep going? Aventurine asks her why people should bother living if the universe is meaningless?

He fully expects her to say people shouldn’t.

But Acheron doesn’t do that. The dice are weighted against us. Not just in game, but in reality itself. We will all die, you will die, the people you care about will die, I might die, it remains to be seen. However, before that inevitable ending, before the curtain finally closes, we have so many choices to make. If the ending is the same for everyone, it doesn’t matter, and Acheron tells Aventurine this.

Because the Nihility envelops everyone equally, the universe is equally meaningless for everyone, nobody is the special someone destined to have a destiny. Therefore, it doesn’t matter. Aventurine has no reason to live. And Aventurine has no reason not to live. She tells him his time hasn’t come, because it hasn’t. Until that dice roll, until his final breath, Aventurine can still make choices and he can still choose to live for himself, and that’s the answer Acheron gives him.

But she knows that’s not enough. Aventurine will still struggle to live for himself, after all he’s been through, after the mountain of expectations and hopes and dreams piled onto him. So she tells him his friend has already given him the answer. Aventurine pulls out the note written by Dr. Ratio. It doesn’t give him a plan, doesn’t inform him of what expectations he has for him, doesn’t list every single reason why Aventurine should keep going. Ratio tells Aventurine to stay alive and keep on living, because he doesn’t need anything more than that, there isn’t anything more than that. Her caring about Aventurine, Ratio caring about Aventurine, that’s enough to keep him going, because other peoples love is enough of a reason to exist, universe be damned.

existing. The Existence. AKSJAKKSNDKKWEN.

Like you don’t understand, you don’t understand. ACHERON IS ENVELOPED IN THE MEANINGLESSNESS OF THE UNIVERSE BEFORE SHE FINDS ITS EXISTENCE, ITS VALUE, ITS MEANING. Even if it can never be achieved, Acheron is willing to destroy herself completely as she walks farther and farther into the Nihility trying to find the Existence, even if it takes every from her she will find it. Only by giving up her existence can Acheron find the Existence and kill the Nihility. Only by sacrificing her own life and giving up her own meaning can she give it to others.

Red. She tells the trailblazer that when they can no longer see the world in anything but black and white, there will be a brief flash of Red for them.

Red is the Existence. Red is the color of her blade that allowed her to cut that black hole in half. Red is the only color left when she unsheathes her sword. Red is the color of the tears she cries. Red is the color of the words she speaks to us that truly matter.

Red is the color she cuts into reality. In a world of black and white, in which all the light has been swallowed by IX, and the path ahead is blurry, Acheron illuminates the universe’s future in bright red, creating color, creating life, creating Existence in a world devoid of it.

We will encounter the Nihility along our journey, just as we would encounter every other aeon. The world will seem meaningless, and it will be devoid of color, but when the Trailblazer needs it the most, there will be Red. A reason to keep going, a reason to exist, a reason to keep on Trailblazing, because the path of the Trailblaze’s end is also at the Existence, and we will meet Acheron there again. Whether that color will come from us or her remains to be seen, but it will be there for us when we need it.

However, I think we/the Trailblazer will be alone. As that flash of red isn’t the only thing Acheron tells the Trailblazer.

Only when left alone can people pick themselves up. Only when help is absent can people truly fight for themselves. Only when you are alone, can you truly understand your existence.

That doesn’t mean other people don’t matter, that you have to walk the world alone, that you can only exist devoid of others. Quite the opposite actually, other people can be your reason to exist, something to help keep you going. Acheron knows this, which is why she directs Aventurine to Ratio’s note. That’s the meaning he can find in a meaningless universe.

Moreover, people help each other, they provide the tools other people need to exist, the anchors that ground people in reality, the reason why you might want to wake up in the morning, they create the things and ideas that you need and enjoy. It’s when you are ripped of these comforts, stripped of the things that make you want to keep going, is when people fight for their existence. As in a world devoid of everything, can you truly appreciate the things you have, and acknowledge that since there is now nothing, you are the only something. When there is no one there to save them, fools pick themselves up, and that is Existence.

I love Acheron. I love her silly amnesiac tendencies, I love her beautiful design, I love that she’s a Mei counterpart, but most of all, I love what she stands for.

Acheron is the indomitable human spirit personified, she quite literally chooses to exist in the face of absolute nothing. When the world loses all color, does she paint reality in a bright red with her sword, writing her own destiny with each and every slash.

And for that, I will always adore her.

i feel like chloe and max having relationship problems makes a LOT of sense considering everything the two of them went through, and max sacrificing arcadia bay would 100% be a huge one of them. especially considering chloe lost her mother to that. it’s a decision max made to save her, but regardless. all of their troubles r incredibly realistic but you lost me at chloe dumping her for VICTORIA CHASE. like?????? it’s like they completely forgot every single aspect of what makes chloe chloe. yes they would be rocky but she would fight for her, just like how she fought for her hope and love of rachel still being out there. like. she is incredibly loyal and not once in the original games did she even fuck with victoria. i’m less mad about them breaking up and more mad abt the character assassination of chloe

Imagine taking years to find the overhaul that created Null sector and started the Omnic Crisis only for the spunky non biney fella to say haha I dig :3

JJK characters & relationships as songs I associate with them!

I will be updating this as this hyperfixation deepens…

Geto Suguru

Not Strong Enough - boygenius

Little Lion Man - Mumford & Sons

Wires - The Neighbourhood

Gojo Satoru

Little Lion Man - Mumford & Sons -> double whammy with tagging it under both Geto and Gojo, but I feel like it fits both of them without being about the ship.

Father's Lament - Poor Man's Poison

Viva La Vida - Coldplay

WHY - NF

Harpy Hare - Yaelokre

Hakari Kinji

PANDEMONIUM - NF

Itadori Yuuji

Outrunning Karma - Alec Benjamin -> Written analysis here.

Hill I Will Die On - Alec Benjamin -> This one is if the execution still somehow goes through. I feel Itadori would bear his burden without a complaint.

Blame It On The Kids - AViVA

Abandon Ship - fin

Fushiguro Megumi

Evergreen - Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners

Trauma - NF

ItaFushi (Itadori Yuuji/Megumi Fushiguro)

Call Your Mom - Noah Kahan -> I wrote an analysis on this here.

You Belong With Me - Taylor Swift -> the sweet shojo story they should've had.

Something in the Orange - Zach Bryan

Buy Dirt - Jordan Davis & Luke Byran

Ghost Of You - 5 Seconds of Summer -> Megumi following Itadori’s execution.

NobaMaki (Kugisaki Nobara/Zenin Maki)

Boyfriend - Dove Cameron

Body Talks - The Struts

SatoSugu (Gojo Satoru/Geto Suguru)

Go To War - NOTHING MORE -> I like to imagine Gojo singing the quieter "Go to war" lyric while Geto sings the screaming counterpart.

Dial Drunk - Noah Kahan -> Specifically Gojo. I think he went through a rough period after the KFC breakup, and all he did was get into bad situations, thinking that it would one day draw Geto back out.

Can't Catch Me Now - Olivia Rodrigo

Dear Fellow Traveller - Sea Wolf

Dear Arkansas Daughter - Lady Lamb

Something in the Orange - Zach Bryan -> ItaFushi and SatoSugu are BASICALLY the same ship and so they share the same song 😞

The Other Side of Paradise - Glass Animals

Space Ghost Coast To Coast - Glass Animals

Gojo Satoru & Fushiguro Megumi

The Water Is Fine - Chloe Ament

Safe & Sound - Taylor Swift

Daddy Lessons - Beyoncé

Sukuna & Itadori Yuuji

SPECIALZ - King Gnu -> I specifically really like this cover/translation by Will Stetson. The song perfectly embodies the torment/mocking of their… toxic relationship.

The Yawning Grave - Lord Huron

[neverenoughmarauders]

New year, new snippet

Thank you @lilacella - I assume this is sharing a WIP snippet? In honour of your snippet, I’m going to go with the boys’ first class with professor Sprout after the summer break in I Solemnly Swear.

'Please, professor,' Stebbins’ hand shot up - he looked nervous, 'what did Black mean with the cry of the Mandrake being fatal?'

'There is nothing to worry about Stebbins,' Professor Sprout said matter-of-factly, 'the Mandrakes we have here are still very young. As seedlings, their cry won't kill yet, however, they will knock you out for several hours.'

A tempting offer, thought Sirius.

'Now as I am sure none of you want to miss your first day back -'

James sent Sirius a look that plainly told him that James too was weighing up the pros and cons of not putting the earmuffs on properly.

'- take a pair of earmuffs now.'

There was a scramble as everyone tried to seize a pair that wasn't pink and fluffy. Sirius immediately grabbed a pink and fluffy one and turned to James -:

'Here, I got you one!'

Only his voice wasn't the only one saying the words. Sirius' eyes fell to James' outstretched hand, as he too held out a pair of pink and fluffy earmuffs. Fair play.

They both had to supress a laugh, before Sirius grabbed a grey pair from Remus, who just sighed and resigned himself to his new pink one. James turned to do the same, but Peter had ended up with a pink and fluffy pair himself, so James was stuck with his own.

'Now you're the odd one out,' James smirked at Sirius, who decided that was fine by him.

No pressure tag and also just leaving it open for anyone else - @albi-bumblebee, @annabtg, @eastwindmlk, @livelaughlovetoread, @tedwardremus.
