Am *this close* to venturing into the ValVel tags on AO3 just so I can consume content of them interacting. I swear they better have at least one scene together in S2 or so help me God I will actively start to ship them on main instead of VoxVal.
#Poly Vees is an incredibly interesting concept & I honestly think it offers a lot of potential to their respective character I just#am increasingly struggling to give a ham abt Vox's love life in fan dipistions at this point I am so sorry#Also despite the joke I don't actually have any grips against Valvel as a ship at all#at this point the only thing that's stopping me from thinking abt them in that light#Is just my extremely personal preference based on what a platonic bound would likely mean for two people#not built for it in the slightest#& both developed very constricted ideas on how that type of relationship is permitted to function for them#Since it's striping Valentino away from his main areas of manipulation whilst making Velvette struggle with the fact that she has to live#with an incredibly volatile and emotionally needy person who she not only has a high-risk professional relationship with#but unironically finds joy in being around as well#She does not want to deal with his shit she doesn't know how#She barely deals with regular shit already and it's why she has Vox to temper with him so she doesn't have to#We're not even sure what Velvette even thinks of Valentino based on current cannon#there's barely anything to work off of with their limited screen time & I don't neccesarily believe there will be more#hazbin hotel shitpost

Idk whenever I see some people draw jay as just this skinny little white twink with no muscle it makes me wonder if some of you guys forgot that he's a ninja and pretty much got the same training as the rest of the ninja so it would make sense if he had muscle just like the rest of them
...i thought that was like...the basic knowledge....
#ninjago#lego ninjago#ninjago jay#at least give jay SOME muscle yk he isn't built like a piece of paper that flys away at the slightest of winds#not like a lot of muscle but some amount where you can tell he excersises and hes yk...a ninja...

Feeling so full of love for Xiao Lanhua tonight. Like, what a fucking character. She’s 10 pounds of mischief in a 5 pound bag. Her approach to life is ‘fuck around and find out’. No one is as balls to the wall as she is. “Then do it” is her regular response to people literally trying to kill her. Her first scheme was to drug DFQC and her second was “I need to get struck by lightning.” It took her multiple months to admit she had feelings for DFQC, then all of 3 days after to propose to him. Hands down the funniest arc in the whole show was people trying to break up her and DFQC, as though she hasn’t spent the ENTIRE SHOW being the most obstinate and stubborn person in the world, even more than The Bitchiest Bitch To Bitch (DFQC). She really said ‘what if I was full of chaos but cute about it’ and she IS and it’s WONDERFUL
#love between fairy and devil#you don’t understand how much I ADORE her#she’s so fucking funny#dfqc: WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING?!?!#xlh who hasn’t planned that far in the slightest: IM A PURE-HEARTED FAIRY I WOULDNT EXPECT A CRUEL BULLY LIKE YOU TO UNDERSTAND#listen dfqc is a character built just for me but like#xlh is EVERYTHING to me#i too would choose to feel emotions just for her ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️#q*

robot transgenderism flavor of the day is t4t nuzi
#somewhat of an example for drone ‘assigned/default’ genders are things like alexa and siri#which yknow are not sentient in the Slightest let alone human level sapient as worker drones are#and yes it’s just as arbitrary and stereotype reliant as human gender stuff can be. as said by uzi. stupid human shit#murder drones#bañana post#there’s also a moderately sized text wall talking abt why the Disassembly product lines are built as female but i’m lazy

"It's so rare for R to be in her right mind for a spell. Should she really be wasting the precious little lucid time she has writing this?" "Don't worry. For a witch, this is the most important thing."
you mean to be telling me that it's an explicit point that rhinedottir is rarely in the proper state to do spells and write things like this. and of all the choices she had not to. she chooses to write it and places importance (read. it's established as the MOST IMPORTANT THING too.) in spending said-precious-time to write something with her friends commemorating andersdotter. hoyo i need youto stare me in the eyes and real the implications of rhinedottir expending what the other's are describing as her "precious little lucid time" to commemorate and make an ode to her dead friend HOYOPLEAS
#i need everyone who characterizes her as a pure evil being and whatever to shutup so bad rn.DO YOU READ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#that was mean. i dont mean that.#more so:#LOOK AT HOW SHE'S BEING BUILT AS COMPLEX#she's done horrible things but. so have so many other people?? and i never see THEM characterized as only their sins#albedos one line#'human beings are defined by their flaws'#(or something to that affect)#has NEVER been more true#youguys did you take a 6th grade english class. You can be honest#how are you gonna look at this woman whose been explicitly built with nuance#as a person both sinful and good. but defined almost explictly by said sins purely for the fact she's human and against what's 'good'#AND THEN GO AND SAY SHE'S ONLY EVIL????????????????#ARE WE PLAYING THE SAME GAME/?????????????????#look at the distinction between the hexenteaser and alice's impression. read the blossoming starlight description.#try reading albedo's character stories with the slightest hint of media comprehension#THE ENTIRE POINTOF HER CHARACTER IS. SIMPLIFIED AND SHOWED THROUGH ALBEDOS STUPID LINE ABOUT HUMANS#PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1#anyways ifyou want to see some of the msot accurate interpretations of her i've ever seen pls go read reverie or nutmeg's fics💜💜#ok im done with all of that. thanks for coming to my ted talk#crepe rants#rhine#rhinedottir#genshin leaks

stop. why... why does sirius black need to be so feminised in the fandom. why is he literally remus' long haired twink. this guy is canonically a wet dog of a man. he is 'rah rah lets go save harry from deatheaters.' he was at the top of his classes. he is canonically TALL. why is he so feminised.
#this is not talking abt transfem/transmasc hcs of sirius to be clear#as i type this there is a fanart in the blurred out background of remus all Built like he lifts weights and sirius like he is a feather tha#would fly off the ground at the slightest push#sirius black#remus lupin#wolfstar#harry potter

yknow im probably going to sound a bit overdramatic for a moment with this sorry but,
ive said like two lore streams ago or w/e that im not going to let myself get as heated as i did at the start with how gun's been handling ( read : forgetting she exists ) maria all this time bc at this point i consider my portrayal of her an oc, as i essentially feel across the board with my other texas muses frankly but like.
i do think, while i was obviously thrilled to no end that they announced maria & she was playable etc, i do think the execution of her in-game really sincerely disappointed and pissed me off so badly. like yes end of the day shes a bunch of pixels etc etc whatever sure but its like. genuine frustration at how absolutely sidelined she has been since day one. and i know theres plenty of valid arguments for other characters receiving similar treatment ( ie. sonny ) in a variety of ways, and i do get the angle of maria initially serving as a haunting of the narrative, haunting her friends and sister and being more of that sort of invisible presence rather than physically there in the moment like they all are - but its severely disappointing to see just how little they give a shit about her, both in lore & in gameplay etc.
model-wise? shes completely fine i adore how she looks and everything shes beautiful shes adorable shes exactly as babygirl as i hoped and imagined her to be & look. but shes otherwise both so underwhelming and so borderline useless ( being generous ) and her ability is just the most uncreative pointless thing i feel they could have thought to give her. like. theres so many pieces i can rip apart for just that alone but i dont wanna yap for an eternity lmao
i just wish they gave an ounce of a shit about her. and like sure yes they could easily alter things or add on things on for her in the future etc. sure, yeah, fine and all but its just... i dont think im going to forget how sloppily put together they made her. or how they've consistently forgotten & disrespected her all these months. and with them branching away from her & the friendgroups' story into other victims' as time passes, their already sheer-ass attention spans are only going to grow thinner across the rosters and i guess in my eyes theyre just never going to make up for any of how they treated her character. and like yes thats fine bc i & others will do her infinitely better justice than they ever will but its still just like... its still disappointing.
like so much went wrong with that release day that i think i was just trying to cling onto the excitement of her just being playable but everything else, certain other complaints etc i wont get into, made me think that disappointment in how she was executed was an exaggeration on my part bc im too attached to her lmao and so i kinda just internalized the disappointment i think but it really is just like man. i feel like ive lowkey been in mourning of her since she was released. no faith at all that they are ever going to give her an ounce of dignity outside of how her model looks.
and again. i know i and the fandom do her infinitely more justice than they ever will at this point and that fact alone does make up for this all, i just wish she was remotely fun to play as and didnt feel like such a slapped together, zero-thought, near copy-paste non-asset in-game. i play her bc i love her but she also just makes me fucking sad LMAO
.
#sorry for random whatever this is its been eating away at the back of my mind since release day & only worsened while playing lately lol.#im literally so fucking thankful that ive been able to work on her for so many months & that ive had such lovely experiences building#her character from the ground up with this lil corner i love you guys so sincerely & bigly for helping her grow into the character#she is currently & will grow into in the future - i just wish gun would love her w even a fingernails worth of how much we adore her.#( 'mourning' is probably overdramatic as hell but its the word that comes to mind lmao ) like i know my expectations need to stay#reigned in w/ gun & i try to but it is just. discouraging as hell w/ her in-game & then the constant worsening state of the#game on top of it not helping in the slightest lmao. anyways sorry again ignore me im just thinking too strongly about my girl-#end of: im proud of where ive been able to take her & how ive built her over this nearing year of writing her & im beyond happy w/ the#connections shes made & the stories being built & all of it. shes my oc as she stands on this acct & i truly hope i keep#building her for a long while more. sorry if u read thru all this nonsense also thank u & kisses to the sky for loving my girl w/ me <3#we all do more than gun literally ever will with any of them.#gonna go lie down & prob cry a moment & then return to Normal and try to write FNJKSD

on your post about how destiny actually works in ever after i wanted to share some of my thoughts!!!
firstly, (ive had this one in my mind since i watched the show as a kid) they introduce the characters as "abc, daughter/son of xyz" and their stories are continued through the generations, so, for some, wouldn't their forever after partner's parent, be their parent too??? like okay there's apple white, daughter of snow white and daring charming, son of king charming LIKE HOW DOES THAT WORK???? when snow white was fulfilling her destiny wasn't it king charming that woke her up???? like how does that work
also, it's only daring and apple who are (at first) set for each other, everyone knows daring will wake apple from her sleep but the rest of the princesses don't have their princes what about briar? ashlynn?
then, it seems only the first born has to follow in their parents' fairytale footsteps like in the case of holly and poppy so what do the younger siblings do? what's their destiny like dexter charming, he had a page in the book of legends but had no story to go with it
this is a lot but im really awestruck with how destiny is such a fickle thing, apparently your destiny can be taken away from you just by signing in the book of legends, it's not even confirmed i suppose, it can change like how daring ended up with rosabella and not apple, etc etc
destiny in ever after high has so much untapped potential i love rotating it in my mind so thank you so much for this ask!
first off, eah has confirmed that there are four unrelated charming clans from which fairytales draw their sundry heroes so it's logical to assume that all current kings charming serving as their famous fairytale wives' arm candy come from different clans as the princes charming slated for their daughters' destinies. briar's prince i always assumed to be unknown due to the fact that she won't meet him in another hundred years. apple's prince being determined from the beginning i've always chalked up to the snow white tale being so important that grimm, snow and co. all felt the need to lock the details down as early as possible. pair the most eligible princess in the land with the most eligible prince in the land and chain their destinies together before fate gets other ideas and all that.
also YES, the birth order aspect of fairytale inheritance itches at my brain soooo hard. does the destiny go only down the line of the eldest? if the protagonists of the tale are siblings, are the next protagonists their respective firstborns and thus cousins? or does the destiny lineage go to whoever in the birth order has the most important role? can you be chosen randomly for a tale that wasn't in your family? and it's made even more confusing bc eah canon says "both! all! yes!" the rapunzel destiny falls to the eldest twin. the current hansel and gretel destiny falls to cousins. the dancing princess destiny goes all the way down the line of the youngest daughter. the charmings are all expected to fill in as either heroes or damsels for whatever tale needs them. it's WILD.
my personal interpretation is that just to cover all the bases, grimm keeps the school open to all descendants of the major players until they know for certain who destiny has the most affinity with. case in point: justine dancer only being confirmed as the twelfth princess when she started sleepdancing in the webisodes despite all eleven of her older sisters having been chosen beforehand. it makes one wonder if there's a method to knowing which sister needs to have the full dozen (the eldest? the youngest?) or if ALL the madames try to get all the way to twelve Just In Case. could you imagine the family gatherings? hell.
(i love thinking of the dancing princess eldritch nightmare family orchard. one of my eah ocs is the seventh daughter of the seventh dancing princess who's only here bc it would have looked unsporting if nobody from their branch came, despite all signs pointing to justine, and she didn't really have alternative plans. she's just chilling. at least until miss mabinogion crashes into her life and she finds herself playing co-conspirator to a certain flower-faced adulteress's Operation Goodbye Earl.)
i think bc of the sleepdancing there's a lot of flexibility in the line-up of the twelve princesses, so they can be siblings down the line of whoever married the soldier, or they can be firstborn cousins, or they can be first daughter of the first daughter, second daughter of the second, etc. etc. no matter how hard grimm et al. try to hammer down destiny, every retelling still finds a way to veer off the rails. so every contradictory version of every fairytale you've ever heard? probably happened at one point. it was never gonna be science.
another thing i'm really interested in are destinies where the protagonist has to become their child's villain. you ever think about how the juniper tree cycle would necessitate the butchered child eaten by their father to become the parent that eats their child? eah never went that hard but i can. i will. (miss juniper tree rounds out my eah oc roster and she is appropriately furious about it.) cyclical destinies where happy endings don't mean jack are sooo good.
also yes!! that whole thing where destiny doesn't even play by the rules of the people who try to corral it (darling is apple's prince, daring is the beast, raven is one of the seven dwarves, etc. etc.) even when the Book is in play is just !!!!!!! really makes it feel like destiny is a much larger and more powerful force than anybody can really reckon with.
#ever after high#mine#asks#WOW this got long. the brainrot is all powerful#everybody keeps trying to seal their fate whether it's one they're born into or one they want to steal (hiii next top villain duchess ilysm#and whether they fail or succeed......... what incredible untapped potential#it's like. i can't find the right words. but grimm built a solar panel and thought that meant they weren't at the mercy of the sun#or maybe dammed up a river and built it proper little waterways and thought those waves wouldn't surge as they please#something like that. brain fried destiny in eah makes me go kooky#don't mind me slipping my ocs in there i just love exploring eah mechanics so much. to sum up tho they are:#miss extraneous dancing princess miss blodeuwedd and miss juniper tree#i love talking abt them and will do so at the slightest prompting

😮💨 the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
#trying to take just the slightest control of my horrible living condition and instantly it feels like my back is built out of gravel#cant even clean my immediate surroundings without drowning myself in sweat and pain#why is it so hard to ask for help? am I afraid of being judged?#i need to vent so I dont blow up

I feel a little silly crying about something at my comfy and nice office job. It makes me feel guilty and frustrated more than anything but I am and will perhaps always be a lil sensitive bitch, who likes to put way too much pressure on themselves for no apparent reason.
The silliest thing is that I can almost rationalise myself out of it. Who cares if you didn't do this task to perfection. Who cares if you make a little misstep and cause a minor inconvenience. Who cares if you can't write the article the way expect of yourself.
No one really. I'm in a good place with an understanding boss and nice colleagues. I'm doing a whole array of different tasks and I'm known to be very knowledgeable and helpful and yet I put pressure on myself. I try to challenge myself now and again, stepping out of my comfort zone.
And that's when it gets me. I say: yes, I can do that, to something that I might find a little difficult. And then it can spiral. Because I get too caught up in unimportant details, or it's not coming along as I would like, or I get stuck and feel like I shouldn't have to ask for help getting unstuck because surely, I should be able to figure out this on my own. It's my job after all.
Even though, I'll always lend a helping hand, a keen eye or considerate opinion when anyone else asks for it. I'm allowed to ask for more guidance or help and not just... spiral inwards. It's a vicious spiral, one that strips away at my self-confidence in a way that makes me even more fragile.
That's when the tears like it appear. A thing of helplessness because I brought myself upon this surely. I waited too long to ask for help and it's embarrassing to do it now. How cruel our brains can be to ourselves, isn't it? But I know I hate to be in a potion where I seem dumb and incapable and asking for help feels like that (no matter the truth).
It gets better with practice. New stuff is the scariest and most overwhelming those first few times. Added routine bolsters the confidence. Positive feedback too, because no one is ever as hard on myself as I am.
And then there's the perspective that I can glimpse but not quite grasp and pull into my chest, where it could be absorbed properly. What I do at work holds value but it is no great end-all and be-all. The tears are just marks of frustrations but I am going to keep working on it. Bit by bit.
And trying to remember to ask for help, no matter if I think I've left it for too long. It's better than to agonise and cry over it, surely.
#crying#jobs#working#i wish i could shake myself and understand it's not that serious#but i feel like i'm just built to crack under the slightest pressure you know?#my tumblr dabbles#pedia

[through gritted teeth] i am so normal about this
#no no no it's just like....#the difference between just these two instances from s1 to s3 is FASCINATING to me#he's not asking in the first he's just stating a fact and he's having his belief confirmed#(by a man who's now almost definitely going to be in jail for the rest of his life -#the less extreme of the worst case options jane's had in his head but still nothing to scoff at) he's told with passion and conviction that#the revenge was worth the cost; that he doesn't regret it in the slightest; that it was 'redemptive')#and that's exactly what jane thinks that's what he's built his life around for the past - at least 5? - years#but he IS asking in the second; it's years after the first and he's not the same man he was then#he does still believe in vengeful justice i think but it's not just him that he has in mind now#there's other people to consider - people that found their way into his head and his heart (despite any of his efforts to the contrary)#and he's asking this question to a man who's just been cleared of all charges (were they murder charges? idk i need to watch that ep again)#it's not just him he's thinking of now and it's not just the most concrete costs either#it's....idk it's a shift from the objective costs to the emotional costs; it's the shift from being told to asking i'm just obsessed#(also interesting that these are both men when the only time i can think of off the top of my head where he has this kind of interaction#with a woman is the s1 country club episode? the one with liz forbes? where she breaks down and says it doesn't change a thing#that's a completely new tilt to it too that's something to consider all of this actually has no point but where else am i gonna say it)#tm

tumblr user tyrannuspitch arrested on suspicion of voting dr*rry over l*kius in the latest ship poll
#listen. as an hp hater and unrepentant loki stan. dr*rry shippers are better at villain apologism#dr*rry takes a villain and makes him tragic gothic and pretentious. this is a good and noble goal.#l*kius takes a villain and makes him bland helpless and adorkable. this is a plague upon the earth.#i mean i've never actually engaged with dr*rry so idk if what i've glimpsed is actually representative in the slightest#and also you don't HAVE to l*kius that way it's not the LAW (it's just what every single shipper seems to choose)#but i've built this hill now i might as well die here#and anyway polls are just an outlet for haterism to me#i will tactically vote for ANYTHING over something that has been slightly vexing me recently

#oceangate#still boggles my fuckin mind#that a dude who built his entire fuckin career#around looking at *THE TITANIC*#truly believed that 'safety measures are a waste of money'#i guess a lot of these rich fucks see the titanic#as some romantic symbol of bygone opulence#rather than a concrete example of how the ocean can and will crush you into a paste#if you give it even the slightest opportunity#these billionaire clowns had the kind of autonomy that most of us can only dream of#the power to do literally whatever the fuck they wanted on a whim#bought with the ruthless exploitation of countless other people#countless life-hours stolen through wage theft#countless lives shortened and made miserable by poverty and pollution and oppression#and they used this stolen power#to ride a cobbled-together death trap#down to gawk at the mass grave of everyone who was left behind#when the rich got out first on that day#i'm glad it was quick#and it's a bummer about the 19yo#saving the kid would've been worth sparing the other dipshits#but the rest of them 100% fucked around and found out#and i won't pretend that their deaths are worth the energy of mourning#it's fine to celebrate reagan's death & it's fine to mock billionaires killed by their own hubris#delete later probably
