[shinyzango]

I'm so mad I just discovered they're removing Promare from Netflix Italy.

CL16 | Real orgasm ♡

Summary: Y/n confess to Charles that she doesn't know what true orgasm is. And he shows her what it is.

Warning: oral (f receiving), fluff?

A/N: Hope you'll like it <3

MASTERLIST request are open

Charles sits down on her sofa, putting his feet on the coffee table. She sits next to him, putting the blanket over them.

He takes the remote and turns on the TV. ''What do we watch tonight?'' He asked her, scrolling through the thumbnails on Netflix.

She makes herself comfortable with cushions behind her back and brings her cup of tea. ''I let you choose this time.''

He sighs and keeps scrolling, sometimes reading the summary before finally putting something on.

As the movie starts, she sips her tea, passing her cup to Charles who take a sip too. They're not best friends for nothing. They have known each other since they were little and they always share everything. So him drinking in the same cup as her is certainly not a problem.

And tonight he came to her house to comfort her. Her boyfriend cowardly cheated on her then left her, like a poor toy. Charles helps her to go through this. Even when she were at her lower, he was there.

And what an irony that he put a movie where the main character cheats on her boyfriend with everyone.

''Uhm you might wanna change ?'' He asks her about the third sex scene that happens, where the main character seems really excited about the idea of getting caught.

''Mh no it's ok.'' She squeezed her thighs, wishing her boyfriend was like in the movie, who knows how to bring pleasure to a woman.

''You ok?'' He asked her, putting his hand on her thigh. He really shouldn't have done that. Despite the fact that he's her best friend, she can't control her hormones and can't help but get a little wetter.

''I..I was just thinking about the fact that I have never cum so brutally. Maybe I never cum, I don't know haha.'' He looked at her, stunned. Not because they never talk about sex. But rather by the fact that she admits to him that she has never had an orgasm.

''Was your boyfriend that bad? For never having made you cum?'' She shrugged her shoulders.

Charles finds himself blushing just thinking about Y/n, actually cumming for the first time.

''You..you want me to show you what real orgasm is ?'' He asked her, almost whispering because of his shyness.

She turned her head towards him, her cheeks red. What should she do? She's so horny now that she can't say no. But does that also mean maybe ruining their friendship?

''Y-yes... Please.'' Charles himself didn't expect her to say yes. He brings his head closer to hers, his lips a few millimeters from hers. She can feel his breath on her lips and it gives her goosebumps. She closes her eyes, hoping that Charles will make the first move, because she doesn't dare to.

Just as she was about to open her eyes again, because she thought Charles wouldn't move, his lips stuck to her. His hand slides down her neck and brings her head closer to his, deepening the kiss with small movements. He moves forward so much that she lies down on the sofa, him on top of her.

''You have to tell me now if you want to stop.'' He kisses her cheeks.

''K-keep please..'' He kisses her jaw, under her ear, her neck and her collarbone. His hands slip under her t-shirt, removing it slowly. She feels shivers down her spine when he starts to rub his hands against her waist, hips, thighs and upper ass.

She found herself moaning softly, but naturally, not faking it. His kisses tease her breasts, unclipping her bra easily. He looked up at her, as if he was asking her if he could touch it.

''You..you can..'' She whispered, shyly. One of his hands found its way to massage her breasts, licking the nipples of the other one.

Charles is a smart man. And seeing that she didn't react more than that when he teased her with her breasts, he didn't dwell on it too much.

His kisses keep going lower, until he nibbles softly in her flat belly, removing her pants gently. He takes one of her hands and places it on his hair, indicating for her to play with it.

She runs her hand through it, stroking his soft hair and playing with a few strands with her fingertips. He tries to spread her legs but she unconsciously resists.

''Don't be stressed, princess.. Is it ok if I call you princess?'' She relaxes a little and Charles manages to position himself correctly between her legs.

''Y-Yes.. I like it.'' She whines softly when she feels him blowing on her panties.

He bites his bottom lip, looking at her, full of lust and hunger. A white stain is visible through her panties and Charles wants to eat her out so badly.

As if to answer him, she lightly presses Charles' head towards her privacy. He doesn't wait for a second signal and lets his fingers slide between her folds through her panties.

''Charles !'' She moaned, surprising him and herself. He allows himself to remove her panties, seeing her completely naked in front of him.

''You're so beautiful, princess..'' She put her hand over her mouth and her eyes widened when she felt Charles's lips against her bundle of nerves. He grabs her arm that's hiding her mouth, taking her hand and intertwining his fingers with hers.

''Close your eyes and don't hold back your beautiful voice..'' She closes her eyes like Charles told her, enjoying his lips and tongue.

He makes small circles with his tongue, using his free hand to push a finger inside her. She grips his hair a little tighter, digging her nails into the skin of his hand with her other hand.

The room is filled with her moans, sounding like a melody to the ears of Charles's. He inserts a second finger, making her moan louder. She feels a sensation she has never felt. Her whole body is tense and her legs are shaking uncontrollably.

She can't help but moan, Charles moving his fingers in and out quickly, in a wet and tight song. And when her whole body relaxes, without even realizing it, she drowns Charles with her precious liquid.

Charles is proud of himself. He succeeded in his mission. He made her cum. Probably for the first time in her life, given how quickly she let it go.

He gets up from between her legs after cleaning her as best he could with his tongue. He licks his two fingers, full of her liquid and also cleans his chin with his hand.

She sits up a little straighter on the sofa, not knowing what to do.

''How was it ?'' He looked at her with a naughty smile. She blushes when she sees him like that, his hair all messy by her hand.

''Incredible.'' She finds herself blushing even more when she admits that Charles makes her feel good.

''You.. want to go further?'' She smiles tenderly at him.

''I'm sorry but I'm so tired after.. my first orgasm.'' Charles chuckled and passed to her, her clothes that were on the floor.

''Never say sorry for refusing to go further.'' He passed his hand through his hair, trying to fix it.

''Can you..Sleep with me ?'' She puts her t-shirt back on and takes out her hair with a gesture of her hands. Charles looks at her doing that, his eyes full of love.

''Of course, princess.'' He winked at him, carrying her suddenly like a princess. She clutches her t-shirt, feeling slightly afraid.

''Cha! Careful!!'' He giggles and places her on her bed.

''Do you mind if I sleep in boxers?'' She finds herself blushing again. She knows that their relationship is no longer the same now.

''No no it's ok.'' He removes his jeans and t-shirt quickly, lying down beside her. She doesn't dare to go against him, not really knowing his reaction.

''Y/n?'' He asked her with a soft voice, tucking a few strands of hair behind her ear.

''Yes Charlie?'' Her eyes are wide open, a knot in her stomach.

''Do you want to be my girlfriend?'' She turns red at his request.

''I..I would love to.'' Charles chuckles and moves his head towards her, kissing her tenderly. His hand resting on her waist, pulling her closer to him.

As Dreamworks's deal with Netflix for exclusive shows expires (they first signed a deal with Hulu for exclusives and now seem to be given shows to them and Peacock), shows have begun to leave the service en masse. However, due to the nature of staggered contracts, many of these shows will not be leaving Netflix for at least a year, while others may have several years left on the service. What's on Netflix did some calculations based on when the final seasons were added and came up with some removal dates for the shows -

Voltron: Legendary Defender (N Original)December 14, 2018 December 14, 2024

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (N Original)May 15, 2020 April 10, 2026

3Below: Tales of Arcadia (N Original)July 12, 2019 August 7, 2026

Wizards: Tales of Arcadia (N Original)August 7, 2020 August 7, 2026

Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia (N Original)May 25, 2018 August 7, 2026

There are plenty of other expiration dates on that list, but these are the big ones I noticed, mostly because they were attempts at franchise creation that fell completely flat. Voltron's big-budget Amazon movie is due for a 2025 release in a best-case scenario (worst-case scenario is more Robotech-style development hell) and with the rollout of a lot of classic Voltron merchandise including the oft-mentioned Voltron beer, the plan to erase VLD from everything come the film release is well underway. Dreamworks doesn't seem to mind, since they're still the video distributor for DOTU on behalf of World Events Productions, their name is on the Voltron beer.

She-Ra is a similar story. The franchise is also with Amazon via Dreamworks, for a live-action show directed by one of the directors of the Watchmen TV show. Hopefully, whoever plays Hordak can chew the scenery as hard as Jeremy Irons did. It probably will air sometime in 2025-2026 best case scenario as well, just in time to see SPOP eliminated from everything (something Mattel is only too happy to facilitate given their release of classic She-Ra figures for their Masterverse brand of toys).

Trollhunters was meant to be a franchise but despite a lot of big names attached to it, it went absolutely nowhere and everyone seems to have disavowed the whole thing after the ending. So it's just getting tossed to one side.

The internet means IP gets recycled and discarded faster and faster these days. And these are three examples of shows set to disappear from the face of the earth, to the glee of the license holders.

good good night - kim mingyu

pairing -> mingyu x gender neutral reader.

word count -> 0.6k

summary -> mingyu has made it a habit to bail on his friends to not spend more than even a minute than he has to, but he soon regrets it

warnings -> mentions / implied use of alcohol and drinking but that’s about it.

a/n -> this is literally the third or fourth time i've tried to publish this because tumblr loves fucking w me (it didn’t save my last drafts). anyway, i love writing these little mingyu pieces so much i might even convert it into a series or something.

the bell rings and you pause watching, even though you just started watching the movie, gathering all the snacks and drinks and finally sitting down to watch it. and you think about who it could be since you don’t have any parcel deliveries scheduled for today and neither has mingyu.. or does he? 

when you open the door, it reveals not your boyfriend’s package but he, himself, standing in all his 6’3 glory. 

“hey, you’re back!”

“i am,” he walks past you, almost too glad to be home. 

“wait, didn’t you leave like just 2 hours ago or something? mingyu, did you bail on them again?” you ask as you slowly close the door.

he sits down on the seat next to the shoe cabinet, and removes his shoes and smiles at you. he looks drunk but not as drunk as he is everytime. 

“...no I just had enough of the drinks and i was super tired and i just. wanted to be home with you,” he’s done removing the shoes and he holds out his hands, signaling you to come closer. “kinda missed you,” you wrap your arms around his neck and he pulls you further in, rubbing his nose to yours.

“aw, as sweet as that is, you know you shouldn’t bail on your friends everytime right?” he’d been doing this for the last few times, coming back too early, saying he preferred to spend his only free time, the weekends, with you. you walk up to the sofa and he joins you there after he changes into his home clothes.

“i think they were too drunk to notice. and besides, aren't you happy to have me home?” you look up and grin at him, a grin he’s kinda afraid of you, a grin that means that you have ulterior motives. 

“ofcourse! trust me there's nobody happier than i am.” you play the movie you paused as eerie music starts playing.  “a new horror movie just came out on netflix and i was about to start it so i'm so so happy you came home early so we could watch it together.” 

mingyu attempts to get up quickly but your hands grab at his quickly and he gives you a pleading look. 

“no baby, you can't escape now,”

“i think they're calling me though….”

“too late, baby,”

a bit later though, as the tv sounds go on and on filling up the empty house with the lights off, as you both lay asleep on the sofa, with your face on his chest and his hand lying limp on the floor with the remote still clasped.

he shakes awake slowly, due to some noise in the tv and struggles to slowly move the remote and turn it off without any movement because he was too scared of waking you up.

you had obliged into watching a romcom for the sake of mingyu but deep down he did feel like it was because after a jumpscare or two even you were kinda scared, not that you would ever admit it. 

he strokes your hair gently so if he moves it doesn't wake you up suddenly and scare you, and then he gets up from under you as silently as possible and makes sure you're asleep, which thankfully, you are.

he steps inside the bedroom, turning on the lights and sets up the bed, complete with the blanket on the side folded away to accommodate you and then to be over you.

and he comes back, and again gently kisses your forehead before picking you up, scared that it will wake you up but sleeping on the sofa is a 2 days worth of back pain because of the cramped space and he does not want that to happen to you again.

when he lays you down, you curl up to snuggle yourself and he tucks the blanket to cover you. 

admiring the scene just standing there for a bit.

and then he got into bed beside you, pulling up the covers above his shoulders and facing your side. 

goodnight.

For the people who dont understand, or think the people panicking about the casting are overreacting.

Maybe I remind tall that proper East Asian representation in the show is already a mess.

East Asian background art and music but next to no traditions and customs

Western style dragons

Dragons as pets instead of literal gods (referring to the original set. I havent seen DR)

Character names, especially Lloyd who contextually should be Asian but is extremely white-coded. (Literally Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon)

Misunderstanding the Art of the Samurai and just making them girls with

mechs

Master Chen is (to some) a racist caricature

Calling things Kimono's when they're literally not. (S2 final battle suits)

Overall just not understanding what a ninja is

A many more things that are just....off

Now we let all these things slide for the most part because that's just how the show was written, and many of us were like 12 when it came out, so cultural representation didn't matter. And we all love this goofy little show.

Now think about other live actions that get things so wrong it takes you out of the story. I haven't read the school for good and evil but my sister loves it and when the movie came out and her faves looked nothing like their book descriptions it broke her heart.

Think about the first Avatar: the last airbender movie that cast a white girl as Katara. When the culture is based on the inuit people.

Percy Jackson: I love Leah Jeffries she's so fun to watch on screen, but she should be blonde. It has contextual and symbolic meaning in the book. And removing it for the sake of casting is...a choice (when my girl could literally get blonde weave from her locak beuty shop)

Jake Gylenhall as Prince Dastan in "Prince of Persia"

Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily in "Pan"

Scarlett Johanson in "Ghost in the Shell"

Johnny Depp in "The Lone Ranger"

And so many more that yall can probably pull off the top of your head.

These things can be fixed like the Netflix ATLA. But let's be honest, it's hard to trust that proper representation of the culture they'll be trying to adapt won't be railroaded by casting that doesn't fit or make any sense. Simply because Hollywood prioritizes casting star/popular actors instead of paying attention to what they are adapting. The cast may not be entirely white because is 2024 and an all white cast is extremely rare. But the fear of how badly it could fail or fall alaprt due to lazy casting choices is valid.

I'm gonna try and trust the Hagemans to do right by the characters. But like the first list above, they don't seem to understand the culture either.

Just to keep everyone updated on the series of events that will one day become a documentary about the ultimate flop fail production deal of all time, Community got put on Netflix (circa. 2019) and became accessible to a mainstream audience who could finally appreciate what it was doing (eg. Arrested Development). With increased eyes on the show the call to make a Community movie became more realistic and possible. Dan Harmon told everyone that he had a script ready, ready as in, fully written, one would assume.

Okay so, Peacock aquires the movie and the start of pre-production is announced in 2022. This is a weird one because Peacock is a TV network not a film distributor (for the most part) but Community used to air on Yahoo screen and Peacock are apparently giving Dan And The Team more creative control so, whatever, epic Community win. What we'd all assume as this point is that the script is still fully written and that what Peacock bought was a finished script, assuming otherwise would be kind of crazy, because we know that Dan Harmon has A Script Ready.

The cast are all pretty booked and busy and people are concerned that Donald Glover doesn't have the time, but they all keep saying that they're all willing to do it, they just have to find a time that they're all free. The word at this point is that the movie will start production soonish. 2023 the strikes happen, no worries, the script is done anyway, this is just a slight set back. February 2024 Dan Harmon says the script is 'almost finished'.

Now you might hear that and think 'but I thought the script was finished years ago?', which would be fair, because it was, and also because in the same month Donald Glover said that the script WAS finished. But whatever, it's been a while, maybe Dan Harmon had some new ideas and forgot to tell Glover he was reworking some things. No worries, Alison Brie says that the script is finished in April 2024, great, filming to start soon. Joel McHale claims that he's the holdup which is good because Joel McHale isn't exactly the busiest guy, production should start soon. October 2024 Yvette Nicole Brown does an interview where she says the script is 'being reworked'.

Okay, I mean, the script has now been 'finished' and then 'unfinished' twice, but that's fine, Dan Harmon does this a lot, I'm sure he'll have a useable script sometime soon. In December 2024 Ken Jeong says once again that the script is done and production is moving ahead, no other news has come out since, the film still doesn't have a release date or a production schedule, this month Joel McHale says that he thinks they might film sometime this year (2025) which, yeah, I don't think so. In 2 months Dan Harmon is probably going to say that the script is 'nearly done'

To make all of this worse, Community was removed from Netflix in April 2024, because Peacock, having acquired the movie, wants to put the show on it's own streaming service which is available only in the US. I (British) haven't had legal means of watching the show for a year now, which is crazy because Community being on Netflix is the only reason that Community gained enough new popularity for a movie to even be feesible.

Will the community movie ever happen? Maybe if Dan Harmon finishes the script, so no, probably not. That's okay, there's still the original show, except the original show is now stuck on a desolate streaming service only available to a small fraction of the population and is difficult to impossible to find for the rest of the world.

What's the lesson here? Probably don't sell your movie until you know that it can actually happen, maybe write up a production schedule before hand. Anyway this is all pretty much the most Greendale thing that could've happened so I suppose we all just have to make peace with that.

My friend who hasn't seen/read Magi and all she knows about it is from what I tell her honestly has some of the most hilarious takes on the characters and show I've ever heard here's some highlights

About Ja'far "He's so.... green. I was not expecting him to be that green."

Used to mix up Alibaba and Judar, all she knew for a while was that they were my favorites and I shipped them

Constantly makes fun of Sindria, whenever we watch movies and there's a snobby character she's always like "Oh you must be from Sindria" in the most distasteful voice ever

^ Memes on Sindria ALL THE TIME now

Refers to the countries as "Not-(real place they're adjacent to)" like "Not-Eygpt" and "Not-Saudi Arabia" and "Not-Hogwarts", she just calls sindria by name though

Mixed up Kouha and Morgiana a couple times because "well they're both pink"

Makes fun of me (affectionate) for crying when Magi was taken off Netflix but also BRUTALLY roasts on Netflix for removing it

"Sinbad would have discord nitro, and discord kittens"

Hakuryuu -> Wannabe Zuko

Thought Alibaba would be one of the most thirsted-after characters after Sinbad and before Hakuryuu

[freddie-77-ao3]

So I know you like Marvel, DC, and Percy Jackson, but what other shows, movies, or genres to you like??? Action, horror, comedy, crime/medical dramas? If you don’t mind me asking that is .

hmmmm

so DC and PJO are definitely the big ones, and have been for years but other than that

Miss Peregrine's Home/ Peculiar Children series

greys anatomy with my sister (but i refuse to watch past season 14, there was NO reason to keep going

the owl house? a little? i still read the moringmark comics and am on the subreddit, but i'm not really active in the fandom. same goes for gravity falls. OH I NEED TO POST A GRAVITY FALLS THING ITS COOL AS SHIT!!!

throne of glass (sarah j. maas series) i love this series but oh my fucking god the fandom sucked when i was last in it. absolutely no understanding of any sort of morally gray character. i adore characters who are human and make mistakes, and from what i saw.... no one else did.

sort of merlin tv but also.... just the fanfics. i watched the first season of the actual show and then it got removed from netflix so i just read the fandom wiki and fanfiction. got into it originally because caffeinatedflumadiddle (SOSF writer) also wrote for merlin.

umbrella academy!! TV more than comics but i definitely like both. TV wise, i've not actually watched season 3 yet, but imma get there at some point.

love the true lives of the fabulous killjoys comics, don't really read the fics bc ppl conflate the fabulous four with the band and that's ick.

heartstopper! my ex gf got me into the series, but i definitely still love them now!! personally i like the show, then the novels (like solitaire!!! god i love solitaire), then the graphic novels. i love nick and Charlie (obviously) but tao is my favorite non-main character. non main being not-nick-or-charlie.

dear evan hansen. not like. a lot a lot, but i like the fics, the book was cool. not watched the musical, but listened to the songs.

hunger games!! controversial opinion but i don't really thing gale did much wrong? like he designed bombs WHILE THEY WERE IN WAR. what happened to prim was a tragedy, but one that was accidental. definitely still team everlark though.

derry girls! watch it (and rewatch it) with my family a lot. my favorite is michelle.

love both the song of achilles and circe by madeline miller, even if they're not historically accurate (moreso the circe there...) honestly, love a lot of mythological retellings-- daughters of sparta is another really good one.

speechless (tv) is great! watched it mainly for the nonverbal rep, ray is definitely my favorite character. fun fact, my mum was in a mums group with minnie driver.

everything's gonna be okay! also watched for rep (this time just autism in general) and also love it. drea is my favorite character.

coraline!!! holy shit i love coraline. book and movie. favorite animated movie by far.

my sister's keeper is a great book. not watched the movie, but i love the book.

girl in pieces is a great book.

i watched fate the winx saga, that was good

school spirits!! can't wait for season 2

okay also, nonfiction/poetry wise

i adore richard siken. he's a wonderful poet. i like crush more than war of the foxes, and i can't wait for the next collection to come out!! seriously ask me about his poetry, i could go on for ages-- i've got favorite quotes, favorite poems, everything.

black girl, call home (and other poems by the author) jasmine mans is great. i am white, so disclaimer there, i probably shouldn't speak as to the racial poetry, but i definitely enjoy her queer and sexual assualt poetry.

a couple of others i can't pull up rn

night by elie wiesel. genuinely guys, usually i don't like nonfiction, but i read this book for english nine YEARS ago, and it was such a beautiful book that i bought it when the unit was over. it's absolutely horrific, but.

radium girls by kate moore. was my special interest for years and years and years, and still definitely a comfort book.

genres?

honestly for books i just wander through barnes and noble and see what strikes my fancy

it really depends on my mood, like, i have tv shows/movies for background noise while i do homework/chores, tv shows/movies for when i'm trying to fall asleep, ones to watch with other people, ones to watch by myself...

i like watching a lot of documentaries. on Netflix, i recommend keep sweet pray and obey, brain on fire, athlete a, the volcano: rescue from whaakari, and take care of maya. also, i can't remember the name, but the boston marathon massacre one.

also, hannah gadsby? great comedian 10/10 recommend. i've loved the shows since the first came out in 2018. not watched the most recent ones yet. also rec the book.

i guess mainly action and fantasy. and then documentaries, and sometimes medical dramas.

medical drama wise i've watched greys anatomy, house, new amsterdam, parts of the good doctor, and the first couple of episodes of scrubs.

OH FOR MY BOOK PEOPLE IF YOU'RE EVER IN CHICAGO, GO TO EXILE IN BOOKVILLE ITS WONDERFUL!!

everytime i go to chicago i go to exile in bookville. if yall want the website link,

sorry this got so over the top lol

[chloeverto]

Haha oh hey there didn't realize you were there. Well how long were you there? Oh haha no matter. I got your favorite flavor of popsicle. Blue Raspberry! Removed the wooden stick and everything for you. Oh yep yep, bowl and spoon right here haha. Always one step ahead aren't you. That's cool yeah yeah cool. Oh my? No I had mine earlier haha. Yeah Banana flavored. You wanna watch a dhow or something? Speaking of Netflix didya hear about its stock? Yeah dropping like flies. Oh wow you finished your popsicle already! Do you want another? No? Ok. Yes I remember. Doctor said only one a day. I just thought maybe you wanted another. Hey do you wanna go for a drive? I feel like going 35 down the highway. No yeah my car got out of the shop last Monday. Picked it up right when they opened. Got some potatoes while I was out too. Made some mashed potatoes, turkey gravey, popcorn chicken. Delish!! Well I did have leftovers but I ate it all already. Last Monday remember haha. You silly goose. Anyways, I think Jerma is live right now? Streaming the new Percy Jackson game, apparently it has a lot of bugs. No yeah, the game was adapted from the movie so you know it's gonna be bad. I heard no voice actors would even touch it so they just got game devs to do all the voices. Surprisingly the sound effects are top notch. Ok sick yeah, let me just plug the HDMI into my laptap. Oh sick! We're in the prestream. Think we could do a one guy moment? Haha yeah yeah, I heard they're al scripted. No yeah, Jerma and Ster have a game where Ster will use fake accounts to send messages and Jerma has to guess which messages are Ster's. Yeah I know right, with how fast that chat moves it's hard to read even a single message. I kinda wanna go on a drive right now. But like, not really you know? Sometimes the car just beckons to me. The exhaust? No that's so weird. Hey wanna know what that reminded me of though. When I was a kid I threw a rock at my friend's head and sent him to the hospital. He came back the next day but then I moved houses. Haha yeah I still feel kinda bad about it. Wait what did Jerma just say? Ahha no way! That's gonna be nominated for best one guy moment for sure! What's that? Oh yeah for sure that was Ster haha. I don't actually believe that by the way, just a funny conspiracy theory. Isn't your dad into some weird conspiracy theories? Uh huh, yeah. No yeah how can people fall for that haha. That's crazy, could you even imagine how crazy that would be hahahaha. Hey you know what why don't I get some icecream. I'm thinking Mint Chocolate Chip, you? Yeah ok sounds good. I'll run to the store and be right back.

20 days later

Happy Wednesday Mom! Humpday!! Woooo! Yeah ahaha!

6 Hours later

Hey I'm home, how are you? Oh no! Tell me about it. Ah well fair enough, I had an alright day. Saw my mom earlier. We just chatted, surprisingly pleasant. Well of course not, you know how they are. Different generation and all that junk. Junk inside your trunk. Yeehaw! Those are some horses. Horses run very quickly even though their legs are like a finger, or however that fun fact goes. Did you know that there are different sizes of infinity? Like the whole set of integers, you know n+1 where n is the current number. All the numbers you would reaxh using that expression. Countably Infinite. What is uncountably infinite is all real numbers. So that would include numbers with decimals and stuff. Cause 1.0 is a number and 1.1 is a number and 1.01 is a number and 1.001 is a number and 1.0001 is a number and so forth. You can't even get to 2. It's that big. How crazy is that! While yeah numbers and counting and shit is like, made up by humans it's still cool. Sven if it has no practical real world use. Though maybe that's just me being autistic. If you made it this far tag your friends! No but yeah, I'm just a quirky trans girl just living it up in the big city! Not a care in the world! I sometimes look out the window with my cat when he chirps. Try to see what he sees. He's a little orange fella. Real cute. Mostly birds you know? Sometimes we talk him out for a walk, just around the neighborhood. Put his collar, vest, and leash on.

Ons time in a walk he fisted a hole in a tree and a bird flew out. It was so crazy! I have a final I should be working on, but I like tip typing away at my phone. Like a little movie script. Haha would it be funny if I asked my boyfriend to proofread all of this. Haha that would be so crazy. I want this post to be longer. My goal was to make this like, the length of color of the sky. You know? The type of post that just takes a while to scroll past. I might have to just put it in my drafts and add on later. This is the end of the first time I add to this

Bro it's like 2 years later how crazy is that. Fuck fuck ufkc fuck fuck duck dick fuck fuckd ducm hahhahaba FUCK YOU A grape what even is that. Raisins my ass we kill plants in this ass. Root and all I just go into the woods and start pulling them up. Don't even harvest them I just like this is FALSE I DO NOT go into the nature by myself and I largely leave nature alone. I think I watched The Original Jumanji too young and now plants scare me kinda. Mushrooms too but that's from Ben 10 I think. Fucked up you know. I could be enjoying way more different types of food but I can't. Ok back to the single sided conversation.

Not that being on pills forever is bad it just sucks that it's such a strain on the individuals finances. No man I'm not a cuck that was one time. Well sure I like watcjing people kiss but anyone who likes romance movies would be a cuck then. Wait are you a cuck? Yeah ok whatever man. Anyways, wanna watch some Narnia readings on youtube? I know this one guy that just recorded all the words in the books alphabetically and just plays each word as needed. No not really, that'd be way too much work. I... yeah, I know. I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to be like this. This wasn't what this was supposed to be like. You, you never were supposed to get diagnosed with popsicle-itus. That's on me. I love you. I'll stay with you

When streaming killed cinema

When streaming killed cinema,

John Kasdan had promised a season 2, indicating that Willow was not canceled but hatus. He even wanted to bring back Val Kilmer. Now he agree to remove the series from Disney+. What are we to make of this ?

He has always said loud and clear that Willow was a childhood dream and that he was determined to finish its 3 seasons and even make it into a movie. He started working on this project in 2017. He wrote the character of Jade for Erin Kellyman when they met on the set of the film: Solo A Star Wars Story. A film he directed with his father.

Willow, the series, was full of hope for an entire community and for many other people. It doesn't matter what community we belong to. It's a series full of positive messages. For the first time, we discover a queer princess. A princess unlike any Disney princess to date. We discover courageous, strong female characters who learn to discover and love each other awkwardly. For the first time, we discover a queer romance that's not sexualized, but romantic, that emerges as the story unfolds, and that everyone accepts and doesn't judge. Unlike all Disney tales, here it's not a prince who saves a princess, but the other way around.

Willow joins all those series whose end we'll never know: The romance between Kit and Jade, the romance between Elora and Grayon, Graydon's past and childhood. Will Airk live up to his father's legacy? Will Madmartigan find his daughter Kit? Is Dark Elora Elora, torn between good and evil, or is she the new Crone? So many unanswered questions. And leave wounded fans with an emptiness in their hearts.

When, in 2020, the whole world came to a standstill and we all found ourselves trapped in our own homes, deprived of our freedom and our loved ones because of COVID, streaming platforms exploded. Taking over the film market, but destroying it in the process. Production after production, quantity without quality. Responding to strong online demand. Making promise after promise. Such was their power that even the great actors signed up with Netflix and Disney to produce their films, which were no longer shown in cinemas, and continued to work in this way afterwards. Real cinema as we had known it began to die out step by step.

The world began to go out again, to live, but everything had changed, both the people and society. Step by step, we returned to the theaters, in search of the cinema of the pre-Covid era.

The platforms continued to want to own everything, like Disney, buying LucasFilms, Marvels and exploiting again and again a franchise that everyone adored, including an audience that grew up with it. Today, this franchise has lost its soul.

Productions have continued, but audiences have grown tired of the overexposure. Nowadays, platforms have become the "kings" of the film industry, calling the shots. Denigrating and destroying the work of an entire crew.

The entire Willow team spent 9 months filming in Wales. It was a tiring and testing shoot. They all gave their all to their roles. Not to mention the month-long boot camp. The costumers, who made beautiful costumes representative of each character. The sets, Kenneth, the fights, the special effects…

Today, nothing is respected any more, whether it's the work of an entire crew, the actors, the scriptwriters (without them, there'd be no story, no films and no series), or, most importantly, the subscribers, the fans. Who are left with the emptiness of losing their favorite characters, their story and living their adventures with them. It's like having a piece of their soul ripped away. But the stories will continue through everyone's fan fiction.

Many people expected this series, this romance, to see Warwick Davis back in the role of a lifetime.

Let's not forget, before they're actors, they're human beings.

No one should have to fight to be represented, listened to and continue to see their favorite series.

Today's cinema is not representative of society. It's shaped by money-hungry financiers.

If cinema were run by people who acted with their heart and soul, then many great stories would continue to exist and be created

MUMMIES (2023) | REVIEW

OVERVIEW: An Ancient Egyptian charioteer, Thut, now a mummy in the afterlife, is unwillingly engaged to fellow mummy, Princess Nefer, after Ra's phoenix bird chooses him. On pain of losing his eyes and tongue, Thut must protect the engagement ring until the wedding, until British archeologists find the ring in a burial site and put it up in a museum. Desparate to not face punishment, Thut, his little brother Sekhem and his pet crocodile Croc, and Princess Nefer venture out into the world of the living, now in the 21st Century to get the ring back.

RATING: 6/10. i thought it was funny personally, but i wish there was more egyptian mythology references... -2 points for bad music, and a further -2 points for not providing better explanatory scenes that would have helped an unfamiliar audience become more familiar with the beauty that is Ancient Egyptian mythology.

AVAILABLE: netflix

THINGS I LIKED:

YAY MORE EGYPTIAN MYTHOLOGY IN MEDIAAAAAAAAAAAAAA CAN'T HAVE ENOUGH OF IT

loved the whole concept of "21st centuries guys open up the tomb and unleash mummies" except they're not monsters, they're literally just people.. i loved the idea of the underworld being connected to the world of the living; i think it was in line with egyptian mythology the idea of the next life..

the mummies looking liking skeletons when caught on camera or in the light lmfao... cute idea i think!!

i might be reading to much into it, but i think the film did a good job of exploring the morality of archeology; like, for the 21st century people in the film, they were all very excited to find an item from Ancient Egypt intact, which of course, is essential for learning from history, but when they removed the item and sent it all the way to England, it was like-- for these people who believed in life after death and the importance of being buried with their possessions, their afterlife kind of just got shattered because you took their possession... so idk, it was a simple plot but a good conversation to have.

mythology references; Nefer's wedding ring was Hathor's sun disk with the cow horns which we all know is Hathor's symbol.. and it made perfect sense for Hathor to be the symbol on the ring since she's the goddess of love.

there was a phoenix that was meant to choose Nefer's husband... there are phoenixes in Egyptian mythology, and they were associated with Ra.. i THINK the movie called it the Phoenix of Ra, which i think is awesome (yay Ra reference!!!), and since Ra is associated with Hathor, i think he was the right reference to use.

Sekhem is also depicted in the beginning of the film with a boomerang-- boomerangs were found in ancient tombs, so there's that idea of the possessions moving with the deceased into the next life again!

the mummies trying to start a car by sitting on the roof and kicking it like a horse lmfaooo-- they had no idea what the hell a car was or how it ran, and i think that was perfect.

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE / MADE NO SENSE:

a lot of the plot concerned Nefer finding "freedom" in the 21st century that she didn't have in the after life, particularly, in the after life, she wasn't allowed to sing... but music, as it is for many cultures, was very important in Ancient Egypt as demonstrated by wall engravings... and both men and women could play music/sing.. the highest musical status you could have was to be a temple musician.. so, i'm not an expert, but i find it very hard to believe that an Egyptian princess would be told "stop singing, it's not ladylike"...

i wish there had been MORE myth references T-T so much of the film was set in the modern world, and i guess it had to be, but it felt like the film only borrowed a few minor Ancient Egyptian elements and then made up the rest to suit their agenda :((

also, i couldn't find much about what actually happened in the Duat, but i would assume that you might be reunited with loved ones or something like that... but the fact that Nefer had to get married confused me because they're already dead... it's not as though one day her father would die and she'd become Pharaoh or something.. i think? idk. the film didn't really explain the Duat at all which i think sucks especially if you're not familiar with Ancient Egypt.

i feel like there were probably more things but i watched this film sometime ago and i can't remember anymore T-T

The Untamed/Actors

Okay. I finally watched The Untamed and I really cannot stop watching the series.

A few weeks ago, I was bored enough to watch the show. First, let me say that it wasn't because I harbored any negative thoughts. See, I've heard of the show for awhile now. However, my version of remembering is someone telling me one of the mains dies. Well, I'm not a fan of sad endings so I refused to watch the series for the longest time. It's been sitting in my Netflix cue for awhile. Possibly a month before, I'd watched Word of Honor and before that Alchemy of Souls which meant I was pretty desperate for something new in the fantasy world (and besides I love a man with long hair). Ha.

Anyway, I somehow came across someone advertising the story on TikTok so I found the book and couldn't put it down. Took me a few days to read through (mostly because I have a person in my life who demands attention). No excuses left except to watch the series.

I was a bit sidetracked at first. I mean, there are some things that are the same and others completely different. I'm old enough to know the reason why they didn't include the actual couple coupling. I wasn't even upset about that and even though I was thrown off by the scenes of WWX with Qing. I understood where they were coming from too. I didn't understand why they changed the other elements of the story: the yin iron pieces, WWX genius, "the sword (they removed the body parts and I was really looking forward to a headless man chasing the junior disciples around). Sadly this meant removing a lot of the funny, jaw dropping parts too.

Either way, although some aspects took longer, I really liked this series. I'm really bummed it took me years to watch it. I feel like I missed all the hype, but then again I think Covid snuck up on this show too and they had to stop promotions afterward. I'm glad that of the research I've done the show did so well.

The relationship between LZ and WY in the book and show makes me want to scream. Honestly, both can be appreciated in different ways. Watching the show, again I wasn't disappointed with the character representation or their relationship.

A plus was I never gave JC a second thought while reading the book and even started to dislike him. The JC on the show gave me all the feels.

The Actors

I found out the main leads for WWX and LZ can actually sing. They're so good. The past week or so they did a show and I was able to hear them. I went down the rabbit hole after that. I didn't even know they sung the theme to The Untamed. I should've probably looked it up, but at the time I was too obsessed with the beautiful flute(?) playing to pay much attention to the singing.

Now, I'm in the process of discovering if I'm going to be a new fan.

Sidenote and complete digression. BTS it hasn't even been a full year and I'm already falling in love with new people. My heart was supposed to belong to them only. End of sidenote.

I've found other shows with the actors in them to try and discover if I actually like them or it's the hair and the story. I thought I liked actors before and then I just had a hard time being interested when I see them without hair. Sadly, I started watchin Xiao Zhan's new show and he unfortunately has hair so I'm still in love. Although, I found his other show Oath of Love and I'm going to check that out, but I think I should wait. I don't know if I should watch two shows at the same time with the same person. How will I ever know it's true?

His new show "The Longest Promise" is interesting, but I'm not sure how to feel about it right now. I'm taking my time so I'm only on episode five. Important note about me is I always choose streaming because I hate waiting for shows to come on. I know these are supposed to come out daily, but still. Normally, I'm the type of person to wait until everything's out to watch it.

I even found Legend of Fei with Wang Yibo, and he also has hair. I know he has another movie called Hidden Blade (I think), but I was unable to find that one.

Well, I will be digesting their other shows to see if I want to jump into new fandoms. Who am I kidding? I'm already in the shallow end.

[ ID: tweet by RobertFreundLaw from 15 March, 2024, and legal attachment, which read:

If you "buy" a digital movie on Amazon, but Amazon removes the movie from its library when Amazon's license expires, did you really buy it? Amazon faces a false advertising class action about this issue, and today, it lost its motion to dismiss the case.

Like the courts mentioned above, this Court concludes that Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged that the word “buy” regarding Digital Content could be materially misleading to the reasonable consumer. Suppose, for example, a consumer “bought” Barbie and Oppenheimer for $19.99 each from Amazon, anticipating having a “Barbenheimer” weekend event. But after watching Barbie, she finds Oppenheimer now unavailable because Amazon suddenly lost its license to the film. Not sublime! Understandably, this consumer “might feel a little miffed [or go nuclear] if she were told that she received exactly what she paid for.” McTyere, 663 F. Supp. 3d at 254. Thus, drawing all inferences in Plaintiffs’ favor at this stage, the Court concludes that reasonable consumers might be misled by the term “buy,” and Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged that Amazon’s terms were materially misleading.

a story on this: X

legal filing (pdf): X

everyone: please stop paying money to "buy" digital copies of media. for example, if you lease a car, you're essentially renting it long-term, but if you buy it, it's yours. why should any other item you buy be different?

if you want a digital copy of media, those usually come free with most DVD/Blu-Ray purchases (even with some music CDs, which are easy to make a digital backup, regardless), which you get to actually own and even resell later. just like a car

if you just want to stream something that might go away without notice, streaming services exist. how Amazon has gotten away with charging extra for selling streaming content they tell users they're "buying," in addition to charging for streaming content via their Prime Video charges, is a mystery. especially when said content will eventually disappear when their temporary license to show it expires

before Amazon and Netflix etc killed the video-rental industry, you could go to a store like Hastings or whatever and either buy a new movie (for, say, $15), buy it used (for, say, $8), or rent it (for, say, $1.99). if Amazon wants to charge extra for shows they don't want to include in their Prime Video, they could rent them for a buck or so more, not charge as much as it might cost to actually own a copy that you can re-watch any time in the future, but not actually deliver you a copy your own

if you want to buy buy media, only pay for something you will actually own. you can always rip a personal copy of physical media for backup use to play through your computer or phone if you prefer, but you do not own something that can be taken away

side (but closely related) note: why in the actual fuck do we let game companies get away with "selling" us games without physical media and which require connection to the company servers to play? that's called renting, folks, not buying

for one of my final posts of the year, i thought i'd do a year in review of my favorite books/movies/albums/tv shows of 2024 (click these links to see my 2023 and 2022 ones 🫶). they're so fun to look at in the future therefore this is now a new tradition that i must continue!!!!!

first i'll start with my favorite books...because this year i read more books than i ever expected to (here's a link to my books i've read in 2024 post if you want to see "more detailed" thoughts on these books + others that didn't make my top 9!)

*i only picked one emily henry book and decided on her most recent one but i NEED it to be known that i also adore people we meet on vacation, which i also read this year!!!! **i also picked one elsie silver book from her cowboy romance series (my ranking of them: reckless > powerless > heartless > flawless > hopeless)(if you even care fjdjfjdj) ***lovelight farms is quite possibly my favorite romance series of all time therefore i picked the first book because it is the name of the series....but i simply could never rank those four books bc i think they're all masterpieces in their own way

And now! for The Albums. 2024 what an incredible year you have been!!!! the music i have been blessed with!!!! i adore each of these so much!!!!

*honorable mention to guts (spilled) by olivia rodrigo....those bonus tracks (SO AMERICAN!!!!!!!) are some of my most listened to BUT since it's just a deluxe of a previously released album i didn't include it in the pictures **and i'd like to include the statistic that my most streamed taylor albums (ttpd excluded bc duh it's my most streamed of all her albums this year) were 1989 tv, red tv, and lover 🩵❤️🩷)

MOVIES MY BELOVED. i watched so many incredible new 2024 releases and finally got to remove a lot of older movies from my watchlist....twas a successful movie watching year for me 🙂‍↕️

*these are technically ranked but like. they're all 5 or 4.5 stars so basically perfect in my eyes and i love them all sm and ranking them was soooo difficult

the movies above are exclusively 2024 releases but the next set are my fav movies not released in 2024 that i also watched this year (pls tell me that makes sense)

*the nice guys being might be my number one movie overall i watched it on my birthday and like. my life was CHANGED. I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. IT IS PERFECT IN EVERY WAY

this year wasn't....great for me in terms of new tv shows idk i feel like i read so much that i didn't have a ton of new tv that i loved (like. i still haven't finished this years love island uk season??? AND I LOVE THAT SHOW???? idk what happened!!!!)

*yes i did fall victim to the watching the formula 1: drive to survive netflix series to actually starting to watch f1 races pipeline!!!! happy to be here!!!!!

anyways that's all!!!!! this was v fun to make (sorry about any typos fjshfhfh) ok gonna maybe reblog some things and then eat more food and maybe watch a movie idk idk idk. and of course: HAPPY NEW YEARRRRRRR 🎆🥂

March 10th, 2024 - It's gonna get bad, I'm telling you

•••┊┊🌙┊┊•••┊┊🌙┊┊•••┊┊🌙┊┊•••┊┊🌙┊┊•••

So, the storm from yesterday was only the beginning. Apparently, it's gonna rain on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesdsy... literally the whole week. The worst part is that it's gonna be extremely hot (between 30°C to 40°C), and there'll be a lot of humidity.

I lile rain. I don't like the heat. This is gonna be bad...

Anyway, today was sunny tho. I watched two movies: "The Holiday" (2006) and "I Want You Back" (2022). I liked The Holiday more. My mother loves that one! It was great.

I watched those on TV. Before that, I was watching "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" (2006). I didn't really plan to watch it, but I saw that they're removing it from Netflix after the 15th.

I like it so far. I'll finish it after I write this.

Finally, my mother drove me around the town for a while. I'm pretty sure we did it to distract her. She told me for the 11th time that Sundays make her very sad and nostalgic.

Nothing else happened. I didn't watch NANA or listened to Beach House. And I have to go go bed now because tomorrow I have school.

Fortunately, I don't have gym class tomorrow. And I definitely won't have on Wednesday either lmao.

Oh shit, I didn't read my Philosophy book anymore. I have to do it as soon as possible.

I'll read some more in the morning. I'll go to bed now.

Rest well!

[taohs]

Happy Friday The 13th! My lucky day.. I know this day is not actually a holiday. But I have say that this day is my favorite holiday. Don't know why that is, but it is. I know people don't care about this day though.

~

I have read or watched any webtoon series yet. Since Halloween's just a few weeks away, I've been watching horror shows and movies lately (animated and non animated). So I will resume with other shows after the holidays... Especially since horror movies end up getting removed from tv right after Halloween. So I'm just watching any horror genres.

I watched Train To Busan, All Of Us Are Dead which would be a whole web series I rewatched sooner than I planned to (since I wanted to be waiting closer to the new season). Amongst other shows and movies.

And yes! Bloodhounds is definitely one of my favorite shows. And I'm going to have to read the webtoon story soon too, since I think there's a site where I can read the whole story. Especially since the ending of show is different from the webtoon.. So I'm blame the actress for that too. That annoys me. So I don't know if the show is officially over with that ending since I have not heard any news regarding Bloodhounds.

But I had that thought about Bloodhounds. I thought that if the series is about boxing, I imagined something like Megalo Box for this show - which was fine because I loved Megalo Box. But this whole series is a completely different show than I originally imagined. And I love it too.

Gunwoo and Woojin are my adorable boys! The sun, moon and stars.

I've heard rumors that there might be a second season to Vincenzo. A season that has not been confirmed or denied, but I am so curious on just what could happen in the next season. If that season happens.

Now that I think about it... Some of the new shows and movies that is on my watchlist has those three actors at the moment, along with too many other actors. But I've been wanting to see more of their works.

Oh! And a new season for Alice In Borderland was announced a week ago. And if I'm being honest, I'm not sure how I feel about that either.. Because if they continued from the manga, from what I'd know of the manga, most of the fan favorite characters aren't coming back in this story. Unless Netflix decides to have a completely different plot then.

Men like Do-hwan and Sang-yi (Bloodhounds), Joong-ki (Vincenzo)... They are definitely my type of men. Get me husbands like that. I'll just be the happiest person alive if I was actually married to any of them.

Attractive, tall, muscular, intelligent, and knows how to treat women. Oh! Realistically, Do-hwan and Sang-yi, are actually some introverted homebodies too. So having dates in our house would be better than a public place for me. Not complaints about that from me either. And if I'm adding on to Vincenzo's case.. That man is also really wealthy too, so I would be even more spoiled than I am now. They're the complete sweethearts I can think of! Definitely some ideal men for me. 🤤🥰

Actually! Do-hwan and Sang-yi, who are Gun-woo and Woo-jin in this Bloodhounds series.. They're really best friends, close like brothers, in real life. Their real relationship is like their fictional relationship. It's so adorable how these two are wholesome in these real and fake ships in my opinion. I wish that I had a real life friendship like that. So not fair.

Obviously I do have fictional crushes. Animated crushes, and also any non-animated (portrayed by real people) crushes too. But.. Whenever it comes to celebrities, obviously I'd never know celebrities personally so I can't say much about their personalities other than what I've seen in videos and interviews. But I still don't know them personally. So I'm sure most of my celebrity crushes are based on their appearances, or maybe what I do know of their personality if those are actually a really real version of themself. If that's really them. And another reason why, is probably because I'm crushing on the celebrity in the same way I've been crushing on their fictional characters. Since that happens too.

Appearances and personality definitely make up a character - at least in my opinion. Animated, non-animated.. Depends on the characters.

Ignore me.. Because I have been really obsessing over new celebrities and characters at the moment. I'm gushing too much about them.

But yeah. Every character is different for me in some way or another... Depends on the character. Appearance, personality, and demeanors.

I don't know if anything I said made any sense to you since I've barely been conscious long enough to make sense. So I haven't actually had decent sleep lately. And I don't really know why I can't sleep either.

I know of Vinland Saga. But I haven't watched the anime, I'm not even sure if I will. I don't know yet. Because I do enjoy viking themes for the most part.. I am always thinking about how difficult it is for me to find decent viking stories too. And I am still complaining to this day about the ending for the Vikings show. I don't know if you have ever actually watched Vikings before, so I don't really know if you have an opinion.

Like I liked the Vikings series.. I love the acting and special effects but I was disappointed about the plot for the last couple seasons though.

And I never had any interest in Last Kingdom because of how similar that show was to the Vikings show. Everyone compares those shows.

That's funny how that works out. Hating the "heroes" more than any villains. If you wanted to protect your sibling from not dying, then just why would yo abuse them that way? That abuse went on since she's a baby. That abuse was her whole life. And I can't remember if what did happen to the Silva father. And Nozel was forgiven way too easily too. That still bothers me about their relationship. If Noelle decided to just forgive me, he should've worked up to her forgiveness in my opinion.

And yes! Just about everyone in the Black Bulls, even her cousins like Mimosa and the Vermillions, and even so many other characters were more her family than her actual siblings were. They don't deserve her.

The fact that Charmy's canonically a dwarf, a wolf in sheep's clothing, is so funny to me. And Grey's story is basically every Cinderella story.. That doesn't surprise me. There is always "fairytale" type characters. Actually! Same with Charlotte. Grey's the Cinderella story, and there's Charlotte who is basically the Sleeping Beauty. Cinderella and Aurora.

I'm not sure I feel about that trivia.

~

I was actually going to reveal myself. But I thought about waiting until you're back. So we will see what happens then. Because I don't know.

- 💋

happy (belated) friday the 13th!! i don't "celebrate" it exactly but it still feels like a fun day!!

oh you've been on a horror movie watching spree! how is it so far? i get scared way too easily so i can't usually handle them. i end up not being able to sleep if i do... i'm somehow okay with korean zombie films though, they don't seem as scary to me. and the plot is usually fun to watch haha. train to busan will always be one of my favorites, really made me bawl the first time i watched it. oh! are you doing anything special for halloween?

it's a shame that the ending of bloodhound got changed… i haven't read the webtoons but it would be nice to have the adaptation be faithful the whole way. i think the lead actress is okay so far, i don't have any strong feelings towards her character yet. the grandpa is an interesting one with his past and how he got crippled because of his fight. how did he even survive being thrown out of a building after getting stabbed??! gunwoo and woojin are great though. it's cute that their friendship is the same in real life as in the show! really makes their chemistry seem so much more genuine, even though i already thought that since the first episode

really good point that you made about celebrity crushes! i agree, there's no real way to know if celebrities are the same off camera, so we can only love the personality that we see and their image as well if they happen to be our type. falling in love with a fictional character of them on TV is also super common. and don't worry about gushing over crushes, i am always here to listen 🤩 (and i hope you've been sleeping better recently)

vinland saga is really great, it took me a short while to truly get into it, but once i did i definitely didn't regret watching it. the viking theme was big in the first season with lots of gore and killing, but it eventually changed to something deeper in the second season and in the manga. the viking theme is definitely still there, but just more subtle and has a different meaning to it. no pressure to watch it though! it might not be for everyone, but it's overall a solid series

i actually didn't make the connection that charmy and charlotte also has a fairy type theme! grey was obvious, because she is literally cinderella in the anime world with magic powers. charlotte is definitely aurora now that you pointed it out. i have no idea how that didn't click for me. yami is literally her prince who saved her from her curse. they're so cute, i hope their relationship goes somewhere because i refuse to believe that yami has been oblivious to her feeling this whole time

(take your time if you want to reveal yourself to me! no rush, i'm always here 😊)
