Do you think that Percy Weasley should've been in Slytherin? I mean, his entire character revolves around ambition and he's literally the only Weasley that doesn't give me Gryffindor's "reckless bravery" vibes. It would've been interesting if he had been the only Slytherin in family full of Gryffindor which would've secretly made him feel different and excluded. It could've also been a great foreshadowing and build up to him leaving his family in later books.
I'm sure there are better meta about Percy out there (and I'd love to read them if anyone has any rec!), but I think, at the end, Percy was the bravest Weasley because it takes courage, a lot so, to admit he was wrong and go back to his family. He could have stayed away (the easiest, most coward way) but instead he went on and faced all his failures.
As for ambition, I think all Weasley kids share this trait, and it's related to their family—the Weasleys were poor, and in a way each one went for a job that would give them some sense of financial security.
I don't know if it would add to Percy's journey being a Slytherin, especially because I like the idea of Gryffindors being wrong (such as Seamus not believing about Voldemort's return either). There is an underline idea in the books that dividing people by house is not accurate and I think Percy is just another example of it. I like more the idea of Next Gen kids being in different houses and exploring how, at the end, this makes no difference.

can i confess something else that will absolutely get me stoned in the town square since im dropping my unpopular opinions. I don’t like altean broadsword Lance. i already disliked red paladin Lance. the broadsword was like rubbing salt in the wound. why couldn’t he have his own niche. why was his character development just making him keith. i understand that it was like “he accepts that he doesn’t have to be a leader and excels as a co-leader and you can find happiness that way yada yada yada”. but you could’ve done that without making him keith. also now give him something unique, cool, that falls in line with his sniper bit. i’m not saying just give him another gun, im saying give him something quiet and lethal. like a garotte. yeah i want garotte lance.
i yap a lot more in my notes by the way if you were interested in other unpopular opinions. don’t send me hate messages or comments i won’t read it and will block viciously i also will not be debating this this is my hill to die on <3
#voltron#if you wanna hate on me uh maybe don’t#i just also think everyone’s writing was lazy except allura’s by the end#i don’t go into RP/BP klance posts and hate on them so don’t come into my space i’m warning you im liberal with the block button#that’s my OPINIOOONNNNNN#voltron legendary defender#moths unpopular opinions#i hate red paladin lance and black paladin keith im not sorry#i also dislike the idea that the black paladin has a designated right hand man (figuratively)#that feels unfair in a way i can’t explain#to me#black paladin is someone that creates harmony in the group#not necessarily is the Ultimate Most Important dude#but the guy that can listen to all the noise and filter it out and come up with reasonable ideas and facilitate discussion#and make well informed snap decisions to guide the team#i don’t think there’s space for a right hand#moth speaks#lance mcclain#and i hate that shiro got side lined because they shot themselves in the foy#foot#anyways having a lion swap betrays the fundamentals of voltron we were introduced to#you can’t introduce a hard magic system and then say no thanks#like oh ok i guess it doesn’t matter if the lion chooses the paladin whatever#which by the way is my biggest issue with season one#i think it was structured badly and having allura designate lions from the get go also betrayed the principle#which you could argue for the lion swap using that argument but lance is really the only one who was without a doubt chosen by his lion#so#no#anyways#thanks for listening to me yap

insert joke abt glutton for punishment etc etc but truly i am that dude who reaches the end of every wayhaven book like waow...detective/A have come so far 🥰....
#something i think sera is very good at as a writer is introducing obstacles to romantic progression which feel like natural building blocks#introduced earlier and inherent characteristics to the respective RO#without the actual progression of the romance arc feeling stalled and static#unfortunately i AM a bit of snob abt the view that A's arc is going in circles#like for one. the primary hallmark trope associated with this route is the will they won't they back and forth tug#that's like. what the route revolves around and what distinguishes it from the others#(N is the romantic fairytale scared of failing this expectation and being rejected if truly known)#(F is the friends to lovers arc where the confict is primarily external to F themself but they are dogged by a fear of loss)#(M is the route where the RO only has context for FWB - regardless of if your detective is also doing this! - and thus has no lens to#really understand and identify falling in love for the first time)#A has like. progressed a shocking amount since Book 1. like everytime i reread i kind of get jolted remembering what the starting point is#you've gone from complete denial of attraction (both internally and externally to other characters)#-> denial of attraction externally but not internally (also warming a lot more to the detective openly)#-> acknowledgement of attraction fully that snowballs into a lot more open physical/verbal affection until you hit the roadblock of#'if i lost you i can only imagine a repeat of agonising loss' <- a formative experience of which A STILL hasn't moved on from or truly#allowed themselves to grieve and move past the survivor's guilt of#to then book 4 where its like. okay but what if you literally have to confront the reality of inevitable loss hurting you regardless of how#openly you attach yourself to the detective and also you feel directly responsible for because shouldering guilt is the only coping#mechanism youve entrenched yourself into since losing your family a 1000 years ago#and that's just a very basic read of the romamtic arc. A's arc also got shit like. trying to disassociate from the thing you hold#responsible for the death of said family. and in doing so simply refuse to recognise its continued existence within yourself#(arrogance - emotion etc etc) + everything going on w the monster motif#sorry i am insane about the vampire romance series#the wayhaven chronicles#tunes talks wayhaven

Is anyone ever curious about why the house that takashi's parents owned was never taken over by any youkai, even when it has been abandoned for years, when this series has given us plenty examples of youkai inhabiting a human's dwelling, whether there were still humans living there or not (and either because they like the house, or they just want to mess with humans)? I do wonder if this is relevant to the main plot in some way (like the natsume family name being a ward on its own, hence youkai naturally avoided takashi's parents' house as a result, or if someone had set up wards when the house was built that are still up and functioning to this date, in which case, the question is who would go to that length to protect the natsume family)?

Amity Park is strange, see? It has odd properties. One of these properties is that the people there just kind of... fade away. Not literally! But when they meet people from outside of Amity, the person just sort of... forgets. The memory slips away, becomes at most a vague feeling of deja vu in those with particularly strong memories.
Do the Amity Parkers know this? Well, they're starting to catch on.

This little pumpkin has been floating around my blog for a while, but she’s never had a formal introduction. So, meet Gail VanderQuack! Despite her Granny’s ruthless training, she’s a firm pacifist who refuses to fight, believing that all problems can be solved with words! She’s a sweetheart, deeply empathetic and good at making connections with others, but also a bit of a scaredy cat, and not cut out for the hardcore adventuring the rest of her family excel at.
Beakley’s always said the two girls were twin sisters, and they’ve never had any reason to beleive otherwise. But as they uncover more of FOWL’s secrets, they catch wind of a decade old secret that’s been kept from them — one of them is Beakley’s biological granddaughter, and the other is a super soldier created by FOWL. The only question remaining, is which one is which?

One of the things that makes The Traitors so entertaining is how little information they have and how dedicated they are to thinking they have proof.
However, them introducing the Seer role has opened the door, I just don't think it was the right door and it opened too late.
I know that they can't just lift roles from Blood on the Clocktower, but honestly if they were going to introduce a role for a faithful it should have been either a Monk (every night choose a player other than yourself, they are protected from the traitors that night) or a Seamstress (once per game choose two players other than yourself, you learn if they are on the same team). It avoids giving a traitor away directly, it gives the traitors something to try to uncover, it gives the faithful a little more agency. It doesn't just pit two people directly against each other right at the end of the game. I don't think they need it really, I just think those would have been better gameplay options than lategame Seer, which just was never going to have a positive outcome.
It is possible I need to watch less BotC. But at least I didn't suggest they add an Amnesiac or a Wizard.

Okay, I have an idea for introducing Astrotrain in Earthspark.
The kids are minding their own business when suddenly, one of them notices a brief tremble in the ground. Then another. And another.
Bonus points if there's a glass of water with ripples in it.
They're puzzled and confused.
What is that? What's causing it?
Hashtag, with her knowledge of all things's media, knows right then and there that it can only mean one thing.
Something very big was coming their way.
This gets all of them very quiet. Who or what is big enough to make the ground shake?
The tremors get bigger and louder. Robbie and Mo find themselves having to hold onto anything to keep their balance and not fall over.
They all stand in tense silence, weapons drawn, and form a circle around their human siblings in a protective stance.
They wait. The steps get even louder and louder and closer and closer, when suddenly...
It stops.
The children stare in confusion. What happened?
Then they hear a scream.
The Terrans look down to see Mo clinging to Robbie and looking upwards with terror in her wide eyes.
They slowly turn their heads up and freeze.
Towering over the children, standing so high that autobots and decepticons were mere action figures in comparison, was a giant mech.
Though said mech was bested by Megatron once in battle and said deed can be done again with ease on the latter's part, the metal titan was still a force that very few beings would dare reckon with.
Blazing red optics gazed down at the trembling group, and they knew right then and there who the mysterious earth shaker was.
Astrotrain.

It's always weird to me seeing how people write Sonic 90% of the time. No disrespect to anybody, write however you like, it's just so jarring how different Sonic is viewed compared to how he used to be.
Like, you ever see a fan animation or a comic where Sonic has a house? Initial Sonic (what I'll call the general idea of Sonic in Sonic Team from 1991-2009), would literally never own a house, he was basically a nomad, just sleeping on beaches or napping in his plane.
Or like fanart where Sonic's married? When Initial Sonic was always described as being uninterested in romance (aro king). Or Sonic using a phone or whatever when he was never shown to be interested in technology? It's just weird to me seeing how the idea of Sonic is completely different from what he was supposed to be.

Haha wow apparently all it takes to get my inspiration back for writing is a man who activates my praise kink mid battle and a spicy dream
#lucanis dellamorte#rookanis#more elaboration cause its 2 am and i cant actually qrite yet im too eepy#au based around monster by lady gaga dont ask how it happens ill figure it out but for whatever reason lucanis has to do the seducing#maybe something like rook is a royal servant and lucanis is on some contract with illario and illario is incapacitated#or even seducing another servant himself#idk maybe the royal has a lot of locks on his door and they need both keys#EITHER WAY#au cause spite is already there#maybe modern maybe just minor intro edits not sure yet#and maybe theres already some sorta chemistry going on and oops lucanis doesnt really do this whole seducing thing very often#and maybe rook just has a way bigger alcohol tolerance than he does and he got in over his head but whatever it is#spite takes it upon himself to see what this whole sex thing illario keeps joking about and the wine is just enough that lucanis doesnt stop#him and what does it matter theyre just a pawn in a contract for a place he wont likely ever have to return#theyll never see eachother again#or maybe spite just outright tells him to fuck off and hes too drunk to do anything about it#gotta thjnk about the characterization more but SOMEHOW he and spite!lucanis sleep together#get super hot and heavy and rought and one night stand-y u know the drill#and the next day lucanis is gone like a bat out of hell and rook wakes up free from this shitty royal#and they run into varric while begging or searchjng for a replacement job bc just bc their boss was an absolute dick#he still payed the bills and theyre kinda fucked without him#and then bing bang boom adventures solas dagger minrathous we all know the drill#havent thought about if lucanis should be in the ossuary or not but if he is probably a plot to recapture him for zara#that illario helps with#either way all of a sudden this little servant with the delicate hands and unscathed skin is in front of him again#and suddenly theyre not so little#hands calloused and skin marred with scars from all theyve gone through since then#and he was never meant to see them again but here they are and they dont seem to remember him so maybe its fine#but then as they introduce themselves he notices their hand as it subconscious rubs against an unimistakeable scar of His bite mark from#that night and oh fuck they know its him and i have no more tags so tdlr lots of dancing around that fact for a long time cause theyre silly

how long after they find those submarine guys do we have to wait before we can start making movies about it because i sincerely think that with the right director this could be one of the best psych horror films of all time. the bottle episode to end all bottle episodes with a perfectly selected cast of the five absolute worst people in the world

Late Night quick thing (New Age Sillies)
Bad news: That joke post about including Reset + Orchid is definitely not canon. (I legit got sad thinking about Reset being in a universe where Orchid isn't- because their stories are so so intertwined- but Nightmare 100% would NOT risk the whole twins exploding Error's soul thing.)
Good news: This means I COULD include Kane (Reset's older brother who usually dies in timelines where Reset is born) and use it to develope his character a bit more! Also! Perhaps a Blue × Dream kiddo is finally in the stars for me to design?
#new age au#really enjoying the idea of Reaper + Geno having an heir at some point (and them sending that heir over to Night's kingdom for#exposure to other places as well as to hang with his third cool knight dad who's hard at work 🙏)#Kane has little to no development besides being a perfect angel (foil to Reset's eventual turn to poor choices) so I'd love to do#to him what I do to every oc of mine. (Namely: Throw them into the Kingdom and see what they do.)#oh! and I could see Blue and Dream (beloved boys) listening to the warnings of possible complications if they try to have a lil babybones#and Dream deciding he'd take the risk and carry the growing soul#(<- though tbf this is MANY years into the future and they'd be well established knights of the realm)#i'm not evil so they *would* manage to avoid the twins curse and have a singular beautiful babybones#they'd get raised partially on the move but stay behind with Night and Error if the two had a more dangerous mission#and grow up to be an obnoxiously powerful warrior following after their dads#(but they'd probably be hesitant to follow into the footsteps of being a knight and might go on a quest with friends before choosing a#final path for themselves)#<- Most spoiled rotten kid ever. courtesy of Nightmare and Error and all their extended family <3#oh last note. Ancha has me cracking up w/ ideas for Cross potentially meeting someone and I was beamed w/ an old ship request post I saw and#I think it'd be funny to include Lust in here somehow... (probably call him smth else as a nickname but y'know-)#like. He works in the city around the castle as some sort of... idk tailor? and he's been making things for Nightmare for years without#knowing because Ccino always was discreet about the orders and providing measurements + always tipped well so it was none of his business#but one day it's like. before a big announcement ceremony or smth and Ccino drags Cross in by the scruff because no one can get him to get#clothes that actually fit aside from armor (hc he steals the others clothes a lot and wears 1 shirt until it's threadbare)#so Ccino makes him go to Lust and Lust is able to get him fitted for sone new outfits because. well. Lust doesn't do much but he's very very#handsome and Cross is super easily flustered and shy around new people and he's awkward and aughhh.#and then he thinks about the interaction for the next month before deciding he's going to ask Ccino to go back there again.#and Lust likes dressing Cross up in new outfits (everyone thinks it's great Cross is loosening up and meeting new friends cuz Lust introduce#s him to people in town) and it takes forever for Cross to get over his worries and ask Lust out to a ride on his horse (romantic. of course#) and Lust agrees because he's charmed.#and the best part would be Cross *actually* manages to keep it a secret. like. no one finds out until one morning Killer bursts into Cross'#room to wake him for surprise training and it's Cross. the weird Dog. and- holy shit did Cross have someone over???#Cross pulls the cool ones frfr 🙏#it's just a casual thing between them with little plot relevance or drama I think. just a chill lil relationship 🙏

huh. afaik it's not mentioned anywhere, but I wonder if "asbury park"'s NOT ME outro is borrowed from joan jett's "bad reputation" or if that's just a coincidence.

Someone got mad at me for putting politics in star wars and. Hahahahahahahhahahahhaaaa.
Yes sir. I'm so sorry about ruining the famously apolitical prequel trilogy for you. Terribly distraught that you can't enjoy a fix it au of the part of jangos backstory where a terrorist organization uses the legitimate government to send a police force to murder a political faction twice in the span of 32 pages.
