[BE] deleted scenes clean-up :) - ch5

with chapter 6 published, heres a scene i was holding onto from chapter 5 (the one with the kessler reveal). originally, butcher was going to disclose a bit more about his traumatic childhood, prompting homelander to be a rude cunt to him. i removed that scene bc i felt like it was a). too self-aware for both of them b). i didnt want homelander to be TOO feisty from the get-go, i wanted to work up to it. i still like this scene tho, like homelander WOULD just ask someone 'why did ur parents even have you 🤨'. i'm sad we also lost some butcher reflecting on his abusive childhood (and how it might echo what he's doing to HL now) but i do think the chapter is better without this. the scene was cut before the final edits so pls excuse grammar/clunkiness

___________________________

“My da was a proper fuckin’ asshole...” He informed Homelander. The former Supe glanced at him, probably surprised at the topic. Billy rarely spoke about himself, after all, Homelander was the star of this show. But maybe the hangover was making him nostalgic for the good ol’ times. “He’d beat the shit out of me mum and my younger brother.” Butcher conveniently left himself out of that sentence. 

He watched for a reaction. Homelander just slightly reclined and propped his head up with his fist, trying to appear like he wasn’t listening. As if Butcher didn’t know he was dying for anything that wasn’t related to his own suffering. 

“So when I tell you that Soldier Boy would’ve fucked ya up… More than you already are…” Billy raised his palm and swooped it through the air in a cutting motion, slapping his own knee. “You better believe it.” 

“Ugh.” Homelander just made an annoyed noise. “I’m not taking advice from a man who zip-tied me. Or a human raised by other humans. It’s not the fucking same.” 

“How’s it different?” Butcher raised a brow. 

“It just is.” Homelander shrugged. And then, suddenly emboldened, he scoffed at him again: “Why’d your parents have you?” 

Butcher snorted. Another testament to how funny Homelander was. 

“Oi, you rude fuckin’ twat. You can’t just ask people that.” 

“I’m serious.”

”People don’t always… plan for things.” Billy always just assumed he was a happy little accident. Because he could never imagine his mom and his dad sitting down to plan a family, picking out a house and the nearest school, already crossing off days till he was born. Or maybe the worse scenario was that it was exactly how it happened. And then just a few years after he was born, he made everything go to shit. 

“What’s that like?” Homelander interrupted his musings, an insistent question next to him. 

“What’s what like?” He muttered. 

“Having no reason behind your existence.” 

“Fuck me, you’re a rude cunt today.” Billy all but whistled.

”I’m serious. What’s it like to just be born with no committee over your head?” Homelander was now staring at him with a very unimpressed look in his eyes, his head still propped up. Like he just got challenged to a fight he could win without breaking a sweat. “Nobody had to sign off on an executive decision to make you to keep stakeholders happy. What’s that like?” 

Billy just watched him. And looked away. Maybe discussing the finer points of parenthood and child upbringing with a lab rat didn’t make as much sense as he thought it did.

I'm home alone, you're God knows where

○ Rafe Cameron x gf!Reader

○ warnings: angst, full of spelling mistakes 😭 !! English is not my first language!!

○ inspired by: billie eilish-bored

○ pls tell me what do you think!🥹 (reblog if you can)

○ not my gif

He didn’t come home again, like he promised he would. It was currently 2:00 am, you were waiting for him at home all day.

You didn’t know what was his problem, but the past few weeks was horrible for you, you suffered mentally and he wasn't there for you. You were together for 2 and a half year but you never seem him behave like this.

He came home later than usual, and he slept till noon. You have of course tried to talk to him, but he just pushed you away everytime. He said he was fine and he just want to have a good time with his friends, he never even once asked you to go with him.

Sometimes he came home drunk or high, you didn’t like it all, he said he'll change.(he didnt)

Last night he promised that he will be home for dinner and you belived him, you spent hours to make the perfect dish, but he didn’t cared to call you or even text to you all day.

You wanted a nice dinner with you boyfriend, wanted to talk about his behavior, wanted to try solve the problems in your relationships.

It was like he didn’t love you anymore, the thought broke your heart.

Everyone told you that he was not good for you, that he was gonna break your heart, your friends your parents, your siblings damn even his sister. But you didn’t belive them, no you couldn't you love(d) him too much.

You sighed, that's it, you gonna try and call him again, and if he is not going to answer you couldn't stay home alone anymore. You gonna go back to your parents house.

You wish everything was like it was at the beginning of your relationship.

You took your phone from the nightstand and looked for his contact. It was ringing, but no answer came. It connected to the voicemail. With a sigh you collected your thoughts before started to speaking.

"Rafe its me again, you promised you will be finally home with me, but you didn’t even texted me. Anyways if you not gonna be home by 1pm and we're not gonna have a long conversations about your behavior and all the things you did, I-i am going to move back to my-my parents."

And after the last words you were sobbing, and cried yourself to sleep.

Dont wanna tell too much but expect more from it, anyways this is the sort of origin? of one of my ocs from this au called Melody Halldane-jones.

Expect more from her, cause i have a lot planned.

(also this is my first fic so if theres any errors pls let me know 😊)

MARCHE FÚNEBRE

He was dead.

I glanced back at Ack-Ack, watched him muster a single word

"Eddie?"

I watched him tumble, his legs seemingly failing him. Someone had shot at Eddie, even while he was being brought back with a strecher. At the end, all the boys could do was bring his dead corpse back.

"Eddie?"

He gasped for air. He seemed to notice something.

" No no no not now!"

I was confused at first, and then i realiced, he was going into labour. Probably from the shock.

" No Eddie please, you are supposed to be with me! EDDIE!"

He was going mad. We needed to take him to the aid station.

"Come on, skipper, you need to go get that checked"

"Im not leaving"

He said this with an serie silence

" Skip you need to leave him, you have more reasons to live, come on"

" Why should i live when he is dead? My love, the father of my child, is dead! How Will i survive?"

I glanced at poor sledge, the boy that had tried so hard to save that man. I looked at him and I Saw fear in his eyes.

He had to leave. Not for his sake , not for the babys, but for the rest of the men. They had lost a leader today, they couldnt see another one fall so soon.

So i did what i had to do

"Sledge, snafu, take him to the aid station immediatly! Use force if necesary. Dont care about rank this man is going into labour and needs medical assistance"

Andy had just about the time to try to argue

"No no im not leaving him, not my Eddie!

At the end, they somehow took him to an aid station. Took more than 2 men to separate him from the corpse. By that point he was half delirious with grief and pain. His screams were heard by everyone.

A doctor had come to check him. He kept screaming all night long. By day, the baby was about to breach. It had been too late to take him to a MICC facility, so the baby had to be born in that aid station. A nurse was trying to help, but she quickly left.

"This is wrong , this is wrong!

You! Get him here! He needs to be here!

"Where is Eddie? My Eddie? He cant be dead, we had a future planed!

By now he was rambling. I couldnt look away. In this moment i could only think of my mother, of how she must have suffered the same. How she would cry much the same if I died. Of my sweet Florence, what was she thinking now? Would It pain her that i died as It was killing Andy?

Our brave captain, reduced to a grieving father.

I would remember those screams all my life. I didnt know It then, how all that we saw would stick with us, how It would taint our very soul. But nothing was worse that those hours spent besides Andy.

And then, silence. Suddendly, a cry. As if the newborn was crying for her lost father. A Life for a Life.

Andy hadnt been able to make it, maybe from the pain, exahustion from battle, from the birth, or from grief. A fife for a Life. The doctors did everything they could. Just like that we had lost 2 good men in about 2 days.

And there I was, with all that was left from the 2 leaders of K company. A little girl whithout a name born in battle. It felt wrong to hold something that pure in my hands, that were still covered in soot and grime from the day before. She was so small.

Her little hand tightened around mine. By then I was crying. It should have been Eddie holding her. It should have been Andy holding her. Not him.

And all that I knew about her was that melody that Eddie was always singing. That he would never Sing again. It was something important to them, something i would never now. But that somehow felt right.

For all this time the men, the boys only knew her as a melody.

I would name her that. Melody.

i haven't talked enough on here about gladion. specifically anime gladion. he's so well-written. i love him so much (platonically, although i was one of his superfans and had a crush on him back in middle school).

like there's the whole symbolism behind his other eye being visible while he's reconnecting with the playful childhood side of him and the thing about needing to protect his family and alola from ultra beasts after what happened with lillie and him and faba were the only ones who remembered that incident for so long and the fact that faba didnt do anything and gladion was too smol to do anything and that gave him a whole complex of having to get stronger and he couldn't stand being around lillie while he was training with pokemon presumable because it made him feel guilty and remember what happened and there's the thing about him remembering how warm and kind his dad was and then running to tell his mom with a huge smile when he found out he was still alive and when they caught the nihilego in journeys he was so happy bc his family was back together and he did the thing where he jumped up in the air but then when they went back to alola he was back to his edgy self bc getting over trauma and complexes like that takes time and NO ONE EVEN REALLY ACKNOWLEDGED HOW HE SUFFERED IN THIS WHOLE SITUATION WITH LOSING HIS DAD WHILE HE WAS AT WORK AND THEN ALMOST LOSING HIS SISTER THE SAME WAY AND THEN ALMOST LOSING HIS MOM AND YOU COULD TELL HOW ANXIOUS HE WAS ABOUT GETTING TO THE POINT AND GOING TO SAVE HIS MOM THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE ORDEAL WITH THE TAPUS AND SOLGALEO?! LIKE HE NEEDS THERAPY PLS?! LIKE NO ONE EVER REALLY HAD A PROPER CONVERSATION WITH HIM ABOUT WHAT HE WENT THROUGH OUTSIDE OF WHEN HE TOLD ASH WHAT HAPPENED?! IM SO GLAD HE FINALLY HAD THAT CONVO WITH MC IN HIS POKEMAS FRIENDSHIP STORY EVEN IF IT WAS FOLLOWING THE GAME CANON BC GAH DAYUM I COULD WRITE A LITERARY ANALYSIS ESSAY ABOUT THIS IF SCHOOL DIDNT MAKE ME HATE WRITING ESSAYS. ONE OF THESE SUMMERS IM GONNA WRITE SO MANY LITERARY ANALYSIS ESSAYS AND IVE BEEN WANTING TO MAKE A VIDEO ESSAY CHANNEL ABOUT LITERARY ANALYSIS FOR SO LONG I GOTTA DO IT Y'ALL I FUCKIN LIVE FOR THIS SHIT

[httpiastri]

im the BIGGEST mclaren fan and oscar fan in the world ever and i dont even have the energy to celebrate oscar's first win (yes bc of the fucked up way mclaren did it but wtv not getting into that) bc of how devastated i am about paul. i just want to give him the biggest hug in the world and tell him its ok and that we all still love him. i hope he knows how much support he has and that making mistakes is ok, its only his rookie season no one expects him to be schumacher or senna or whoever, we just want you to be a happy paul aron :(

seeing him banging his head and looking out into the distance after the crash omfg i will jump off a cliff i swear. hes so hard on himself and i was legit sobbing thinking about how much harder he is on himself (probably) this year after what happened w merc and prema. he deserves so much more omg. the fact that kimi ended up winning the race just made me think of the lacy edits too and omfg i cannot. i love kimi dont get me wrong but what are the chances that paul's win became kimi's instead? i js cant.

and dont get me started on that fucking penalty. he already dnf'd i don't understand the point of them punishing him any further did u not see how mad he was at himself?? fuck you fia fuck. you. cz WHY WHAT WAS THE REASON??? i feel like ive never seen them do that to a driver, usually they cause a collision and dnf they just get time penalties but a TEN PLACE GRID PENALTY?? FOR THE NEXT RACE?? THIS LATE IN THE SEASON?? it just seems SO unfair and so harsh. not agreeing w the grid penalties at all esp when the driver alr suffered from their mistakes but the crash w maloney fine i can kind of understand, but ollie's? sorry but i didnt even see them crash that hard? (or was i half asleep? idk i js literally do not remember seeing it) seriously tho wtf.

i hope his friends, family and team gave him the biggest hug ever. he'll come back stronger ik it! we'll get thru this u guys:(

paul nation family group hug 🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂

-🧸

this is very valid :(( it wouldve been easier to celebrate if it had been better with the team and whatever, but now it was so easily overshadowed by everything that happened in f2 and i just 😶

to me, most of my pain is based on (just like u said) the fact that i think he's hard on himself, and wants to prove so much after everything that has happened. i just hope he sees the reality; that he's doing super well, in his rookie season nonetheless, and we're all so proud of him. mistakes is okay, shit happens, even max verstappen made a bunch of mistakes yesterday!!

i didnt wanna look at the clips of him in the car nor hear his radio (ive seen the screenshot of him admitting that it was his fault tho) and i saw the clip of him after getting out of the car and i just...... nope. and esp w kimi winning aaaa it made me so happy but-

god i dont understand the penalties like. yes he made a mistake but zane was also going very very slow (on the slower tyres also) so it was hard for him to tell what zane was going to do. like these things happen within even a fraction of a second and you need to trust your instinct and sometimes it doesn't work out? like obvs i cant compare it to any personal experiences in racing but in my own sport i know the feeling of getting a bad pass etc, and something tiny can mess up the entire timing and feeling and everything? so zane just going slower makes a lot of difference :// it's not common that they do this but ive seen it sometimes but this is just so.... gAH!! esp with the thing with ollie because they didn't even show it, so it can't have been THAT important, right?? so stupid

pls everyone gather around for a group hug! with paul in the middle bcs he deserves all of the love!!!!!!! <3<3<3

(oh and just so you know. "we just want you to be a happy paul aron :("........... you actually broke me with that one, i hope you're happy that im crying bcs of you 😭)

[andrewknightley]

OK SO I FINISHED BG3 thoughts and stuff under the cut (spoilers obvs) . Pals and mutuals that played feel free to comment it with me, and also wyll enjoyers pls do interact fkfkdk

SPOILER about the ending

-Ok so i was playing a good tav dwarf paladin romancing wyll, got my team of wyll/lae'zel/karlach, but lae'zel felt like the real main character of this story and honestly its what she deserves.

-got orpheus and turned him into a mind flayer sorry bro. and then the emperor gets angry and fights with the baddies. like gosh this guy sucks

-saved the day yadda yadda and lae'zel went away to guide her kind and LOOK SHE IS MY BEST FRIEND FOREVER i was so sad but i knew it was what she wanted but IT PAINS ME

-then gale leaves me to become a god, and then astarion gets attacked by the sun and runs away and im like wow this ending is such a downer everyone is leaving me

-AND THEN. KARLACH.......

-Ok so i cried like a baby like. i fucked up i dont know what i did wrogn i cant believe karlach is gonna die im SOBBING

-But wyll is like "WE CAN LIVE ALL FIGHTING DEMONS IN HELL" and got the coolest shit ever of these 3 going on adventures like you dont know HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS ENDING!!! im so happy aaah TOT

-then there is the epilogue and it's the cutest thing i can hug shadow heart and halsin and karlach :_) tried with astarion but i dont know if its impossible or i had him too low (every companion loves me but he finds me acceptable fgoihdgfjiodgio) anyways i wanted to hug all my friends

-gale is a god and like good for him but im like ??? damn we dont see his mission or anything he does this all off screen?? i wanted to see his struggles and stuff idk i wanted to see the FEELINGS

-anyways idk if i got a bug or something but when i get to talk with people about what i am doing is just me and karlach and 0 mention of wyll idk why TOT let me talk about my romantic companion pls

-also i had like 2 options to talk with romanced wyll and way more conver with astarion wich again i didnt even have very high on his love for me (i do love him and my chara frienenemy status tho) but why only 2 options for wyll i wanna talk with him moreeee at the end

-he did blow me a kiss it was the cutest thing tho

-Again idk if i got a bug but i never get anyone commenting on my relationship with wyll and i know the companions gossip about karlach and probs other charas >-<

-i heard a friend who had to kill karlach to get to see her gale ending so i tried in another save to see what happened (it was awful btw) and that was the only way to get an extra scene of wyll telling me to go for mizora and having other people aknowledge him in the epilogue (just with jaheira it lets me say wyll, with astarion and shadow heart they gave me answer like "oh im with my lover" and such instead of by name)

-i am a big fan of wyll but not so much of wyll missions, like they are fun to play but gosh i wanted the cool FEELINGS moments like lae'zel, shadow heart, astarion and karlach had, i feel he is straight up a classic hero tale and i want to see this man overwhelming with feelings of all the stuff he suffered. also more stuff with the dad idk i couldnt even tell him im with his son that could had been cool

-gale also feels like ???? he didnt have a proper mission and was like off screen wich is a bit weird to me ??

-my fav chara is wyll and then second lae'zel who is perfect 0 notes on her 100% increible. Then Do Not Make Me Choose for the other origin companions i cant. I love them so much. I didn't like astarion at first and i was like "really this is the man all my friends and everyone is obsessed about??" but then act 3 arrived and i was like Ah. I Get It Now. I would say my less fav is gale but because i didnt bring him anywhere so next game im def paying him more attention.

-anyways i could have some notes but in general i fucking loved this game so much TOT

[weirdcat1213]

ok i guess this is it

the end of the road

i may do an actual post about it later but fellas, its been an honor suffer read with all of you :3 the meta, memes and reactions? priceless

thank you @revenantghost for bringing us together for the best group activity ever: suffering and crying in a corner :D

lets go one more time

vol 14 thoughts

chap 1:

-THIS ONLY HAS 8 CHAPTERS WTF

-longer than he has been alive? oh thats adorable

-"that is how...i lived my life" why do i feel so sad all of a sudden

-OH YIKES WHAT

-ok damn i get that now, legato is really fast damn

-again, when did vash's coat turn black

-oh shit chronica no

-pls leave vash alone legato

-for some reason vash feel really quiet right now. thinking back to other fights, those didnt feel as quiet as this one, i wonder why

-yeah,,,,sadly i dont think he can control his body either...

-oh ok i didnt notice that the 1st time but thats so interesting. spoilers for 98 but in that one vash's decision is quick, a decision he made against the ropes. he thought about ways to avoid it and then gave up at the last second. here however, he has been thinking about it the moment he started to fight legato i think. like only one man could survive that encounter. he knew from the start it was either the plan (cuz cmon he doesnt care about whether he lives or dies) or legato. at least in 98 the decision was in a quiet setting, imagine giving up your values (and with them a huge part of what you think is your heart) while you are fighting to the death

-HE DOESNT WANT TO DO THIS BRO LEAVE HIM ALONE

-GEESUS oh god no. is he even there or is it vash's imagination

-oh nvm he is here, hi livio

-"dreaming saint" may be one of the saddest nicknames he's ever gotten :c thats kind of what he is and that makes me sad

-and...there he is. not even a word, just him

-:c

chap 2:

-"overkill" huh? maybe

-you did that to choose :c you did what you could. god, he needs to hear more how him trying is enough.

-oh god hes spiraling, this is not the time :c i get it tho

-"you always give up hope so easily" and thats what he did when he chose

-its too early for me to cry, tears go back in

-wait chronica was in the nomad right? is she...yknow...

-i love that panel with meryl picking up vashs head a little bit cuz it gives me the feeling finally someone can protect him from everything, let my man rest pls

-oh shit bro you good?

-oh :c.... oh

-oh god ok its time for the cable

-oh god not the fucking feathers

-if i keep reading today im gonna start crying

chap 3:

-oh my god its the beginning

-he IS a clever bastard ill give you that

-the feathers :c

-oh my, things are happening (aka my cue to cry)

-its time knives, youre gonna fall and hit your stupid head so hard

-YES MERYL YES YOU ARE SO RIGHT MERYL

-NOT THE SCHOOL TRIPS OMG THATS ADORABLE

-...ok i get why *hes* saying that. the conflic, i think, pretty doesnt exist anymore for him but for knives is very real and really present. he may be a little stupid to understand balance and how wrong he is, but at the same time there was a reason for all of this. he committed the same mistakes humans did doing his stupid little crusade but you cant tell little knives, the one who hoped to connect with humans, that he is foolish and reigniting a conflict. its just 2 really different perspectives

chap 4:

-knives is a bastard, and an asshole and he hurt vash so much but damn it. i cant hate him, not after processing trimax for the 2nd time.

-anyway

-oh god not the cable

-VASH OMG MY SON MY MAN MY LITTLE MAN

-GET TFO LEGATO PLS, CANT A MAN BE UNSCOSNCIOUS IN PEACE???

-WOLFWOOD PLEASE TAKE THIS BASTARD AWAY AND TELL VASH HOW MUCH YOU LOVE HIM

-IT HAPPENED AGAIN, WHY DOES MY BODY REACT SO VIOLENTLY WHEN I SEE REM. ALSO WHY DID IT HAPPEN AGAIN

-also im always gonna say this is vash's mind and not ghosts cuz...idk....it doesnt feel like it. the ghosty presence feels more real in stampede but thats just me

-HIS LITTLE EYES AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

-THATS WHAT I MEAN, THATS TOO MEAN FOR A GHOST

-ALSO :C

-hes so tired, hes so fucking tired

-oh wait oh shit

-im granting you nothing you bitch

-oh god knives are you good

-oh yeah hes still there

-oh ok so thats why that plan doesnt work. ok continue

-oh he looks so weird and majestic...you really have to wonder what was nightow thinking when he designed this

-they are so positive, can i have some of that? a gram should do it

-you can easily replace "because i stand with vash the stampede" with jeesus but vash the stampede is cooler im sorry

-also kudos to them for never having a "yknow what im sick of you, i never needed you" kind of arc. thanks nightow. they are married from the beginning til the end

-im...not really sure about where did vash come from but at this point it doesnt matter, im glad hes here <3

chap 5:

-vash in a fucked up mind palace, i win

-"ticket to the future" oh no

-I DIDNT NOTICE HIS ARM IS MISSING???? FUCK???

-HES UP! REJOICE

-FEATHER

-"what a cruel joke" :c

-ONE LAST TIME BABY CMON

-FUCK OK THAT WAS SCARY

-OKOKOK WOWOWOW THAT SO INTERESTING. stampede knives was like "hey this place seems nice for plants, me and my bro. lets keep it" but trimax knives want to literally yeet everything humans have touched. in his mind he can live with other plants idk, in like the middle of space? thats so interesting...

-"what is that noise" YOUR MF SIBLINGS BITCH

-....cmon man. cmon

-were you united by hatred tho? i believe some plants hated humans but not all of them

-leave your own brother alone ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

-"this is insane" it is insane, so you better fucking appreciate what hes doing rn

-AH GEESUS NO HERE IT COMES, THE FUCKING CABLE

-LEAVE HIM ALONE YO

-HURRY VASH HURRY

-"dont touch me" not even us....just him

-ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :c

-i fucking love those panels where nightow puts a lot of details and dark lines only to make the next page the softest traces seen by man

-FUCK HIS BODY NOOOOOOOOOO

-OH I FUCKING LOVE THAT PANEL. GIVES ME "ANGEL WHO JUST FUCKING FELL FROM HEAVEN" VIBES

-ALSO KNIVES SHUT UP

-[sidenote: emptiness from the signalis ost just started playing and now i want to bite someone]

-TICKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET :C

chap 6:

-THATS MY FUCKING GIRL

-shut up vash, pls shut up

-oh vash...if it was that easy. but i guess thats the point. its not easy, it will never be easy to communicate, but we have to try. more people should remember that

-"what matters, is that you communicate. that you understand the person next to you is breathing and existing" fucking beautiful nightow

-"i wonder if he'll laugh again. if he'll follow his ideals again" im so...

-oh knives hey buddy

-i hate it, i fucking do but he looks so fucking sad when the plants let him go. when they decide if he wants to keep going down the path of hate he'll have to do it alone. and in his mind i dont think he has ever being alone. it makes me sad im sorry

-using the feather is so smart actually

-oh hes here

-ITS THE SCENE FUCK HERE WE GO NO

-FINAL BATTLE TIME MFSSSSS

-YO KNIVES YOU GOOD CUZ WOW

chap 7:

-OH ON THIS ONE YOU DIDNT EVEN GET TO HEAR HER FINAL WORDS? THATS MESSED UP

-THIS IS IT HERE WE FUCKING GO

-YES PLS KNIVES CMON

-honey...no...pls. let it go, theres literally nothing left to do.

-THINGS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME BUT STILL CMON VASH

-LIVIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE FUCKING MVP

-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PLS GIVE ME BACK WOLFWOOD PLS, I NEED HIM BACK. WHY CANT HIS GHOST TALK TO VASH HUH?????

-ah fuck...them flying away together it looks so beautiful

chap 8:

-HERE WE ARE HERE I AM FUCK ME

-its is a never ending song isnt it

-my man deserved to rest more than 6 months

-hey knives honey why are you saying "hes crucial for you"? is it because you have internalized that humans will keep you around if you seem to be valuable for them? do you think that if vash is crucial they wont kill him? in the many years you have lived you dont know any other ways to ask for help than guaranteeing there will be something to be gained? huh?

-that kid has to live with one of The Traumas ever huh?

-IM GONNA CHOOSE TO BELIEVE HE LIVES IN THE FUCKING TREE CUZ HIM JUST DISSAPEARING IN THE AIR? TOO SAD. TOO FUCKING SAD. I WANT HIM BACK AS WELL

what a fucking, FUCKING TRIP. this is literally one of the best things the internet has ever done. i want to hug everyone who participated on this. we did it. we fucking did it

[yonemurishiroku]

oooh now im intrigued… what part about percy’s character / actions did you not like? (in response to a previous ask you got)

i never really found anything that i disliked in percy but i did read the books a lot younger than i am now so i def didnt pick up on a lot of things

Hi isa! Before I say anything dumb, I just want you to know that I love you with everything in me and the fact that I left your ask in the mailbox for 7 months and a half does not negate that. I'm an awful terrible human being but my love is real. 🥺🥺

Ok. So. Obviously, I'm trying to justify myself here but like I've spent half a year marinating on this and seriously? this is really hard to tell. Not because I'm scared or anything, but more like I don't know how to word it the right way, and I fear I'd just dig myself a hole (ok, I'm scared).

If you're asking me, what part of Percy's character/actions I didn't like?, well the first and foremost would obviously be that time he strangled Nico. For the obvious reason.

Now, before anyone decides to come up to me with a Percy-defending speech, I'm NOT saying Percy's in the wrong (Well actually yes. They are BOTH wrong and they're BOTH justified - if you were to ask me, but that's another can of worms I don't want to open).

Percy did nothing wrong - no, he didn't - but I just so happen to love Nico di Angelo more than myself. And what Percy did that time displeased me - isa pls understand he hurt my blorbo 😭- of course I wouldn't think highly of him.

And that time Jason thought badly of Nico from hearing Percy's words.

And the fact that he's the reason Nico antagonized himself - which is TOTALLY NOT Percy's fault, I know - but I'm subjective.

(And that time in the birthday message board (wtf Percy?) - but that's new, so we'll just leave it there)

It's all there is about this, actually. The reason I dislike Percy is: I'm subjective, selfish, unreasonable, and hopelessly blinded when it comes to my love for the blorbos - in this case, Nico (and Luke, in some cases...). Did Percy do anything wrong? Debatable. But because Nico is my beloved son, so when it comes down to either Nico or Percy, I would always take Nico's side.

It's more like... a series of actions accumulated throughout the books that brought me to this point of prejudice, I guess... I've forgotten most of them, tbh, it's been a while, so I can hardly come up with specific details that spiked my disinterest. Just little things, I'm sure - but when all is said and done, he's the first character I just know I might as well stay away should I want to preserve my interest in the books themselves.

I'm sorry if this answer doesn't satisfy you, but this is all the coherent thoughts I can form about this... 😭

Another main reason why I can't bring myself to love Percy is, well technically not even his fault.

I don't like his perfection.

No, Percy isn't perfect. I'm talking about how Rick and the fandom tend to... perfect him?

As in: he's too OP. He's the protagonist, of course he's OP. And that's why I usually don't like protagonists. They're too perfect. Everything they do is right. They're praised and loved. Their sufferings were rewarded by glory and adoration. The fandom worships them. They are the best just because they happen to be in the spotlight.

It's like... a cage to me, I think? I prefer the conflictions, the paradox in which I'm free to expand my thoughts in various ways (again, Luke. and Octavian and Jason, for that matter). Percy is too much of a protagonist for me.

Besides, the fandom already loves Percy enough as it is, there's no harm if I don't, right? Is it jealousy? I honestly don't know. I just feel like I should be able to dislike someone just because I feel like it. I'm a creature of love and spite. I can hate just as easily as I love. It's not his fault, still there's no difference.

(Just in case you're wondering, But you do ship Percico? Yes, in fact, I don't hate the ship that much LOL. Pls don't ask why bc I don't know either... There're many times I enjoy Percy's humor, too!! And frankly? I don't know how you can categorize this, but the fact that I have a bunch of Break-Up fics planning to write and none of them is happy should say a lot about my taste for Percico in particular...)

That is to say, I try my best to be respectful when it comes to public fandom space. You would hardly see me badmouth Percy - or any character for that matter - because I tend to stay away from those for whom my tolerance is low. I'd hate it if I have to stir the pot, since I know there're people who love Percy more than themselves, too. There's no need to spoil others' fun.

Please, do understand that I'm NOT saying this to fault you for loving Percy. I'm saying this because I'm selfish, and my selfishness should only be mine to deal with, and that's absolutely NOT your fault nor Percy's fault for being disliked by someone petty like me.

With all due respect, cherish him. Love him the way I have come to love Nico. Because at the end of the day, they're not even real. We're all free to love and free to hate. Let us enjoy what we like best.

(and I'd always love you dear!!!)

[ouroborosreilig]

I'm so normal over 3d life desert duo tbh

like. just feel like, in my humble opinion, everything in one way or another went down from there (in a way kind of sort of)

Like in 3d life Scar & Grian were. well. u know. they

were 3d life Scar & Grian (aka inseparable doomed by the narrative a tragedy from the start duo. I want to put them in a jar and shake them) like tahts when everything STARTED too. that's the roots where it all began.......

in last life (I DONT REMEMBER THIS ONE VERY MUCH..😔) the southlanders fell apart, and Scar was alone, but in one way or another those 2 were like. circling each other kinda?

In. err. In double life... fate and destiny did it's thing, but it was like crazy. cus they were stuck together but also hurting each other kinda, like the Scar snow powder thing, and the Grian bigB thing.....

Then in LIMITED LIFE.. both of them had a stable home basically, Grian the bad boys and Scar, the clockers. But. But. They were still, AGAIN, in one way or another still, like always, circling each other (I KNOW I ALREADY SAID THAT PHRASE BUT IDK WHAT ELSE TO SAY 😭) in the burning down the mansion, becoming cousins, GRIAN KILLING SCAR, the whole thing is just a mess, really

Then u look back at 3rd life. In 3rd life, they were "perfect", in that sad, sad way. Like 3rd life was the beginning of it all and it never really let them go. Like it was always like afterwards, Grian was afraid of really really trusting people (coughScarcough) and never got too close, and when he DID get close it ended badly. Like he knew it’d end badly, so he was trying to stay kind of away from everywhere he thought he could hurt, so it wouldn’t be as painful when it ended badly. And after 3d life, Scar seemed to like… not be vengeful really, I can’t explain it but after 3rd life he always seemed to have like; some sorta essence of 3rd life? Like it rubbed off on him and changed him kinda?????? God that man is too much for me to dissect UGHH (but I hope u get what I mean at least a little. ..)

verdict. They are a Greek tragedy mixed with ballroom dancing mixed with poisoning each others drinks mixed with more Greek tragedy

(btw.:. So sorry for the rant I just went crazy for a little and idrk anyone else Normal about desert duo /pos so I had to tell u.. hope u understand 😔 if u want me to stop tho pls pls pls pls pls pls tell me!!!!!!!!!! Alsoo if u want to add anything onto this PLEASE DO… I don’t analysis gtws enough to know The Things about him and I can’t rewatch the life series or I cry(

im gonna throw up (in an insane way)

god yeah no yeah erm yeah this is my thoughts as well gheughiagorjdghnnnkm THEY SUCK! WHY DO YTHEY DOOOO THIS......... Anyways... Yeah.......

it feel s like TO ME... scar really wants that moment back, like all of the things they had in the desert, even if it was just the 2 of them really it didnt feel that lonely and they were happy w/ each other !!!!! and he is sad. and sad..... he just wants his buddy back he has no hard feelings (of the cactus r [explodes])

but grian is MISERABLE he's suffered severe emotional damage after . yknow.. and he just keeps killing scar over and over and over again and each time hes so so sorry but he keeps doing it! the way it happened in limited life though is so very interesting to me because he really didn't have to there were plenty of other people and yeah maybe scar was easy pickings for having his back turned and being so vulnerable but also why. maybe so it didnt hurt as bad the longer it went on with the 2 of them alive hahahahahhaha anyways what are we talking about

[cielospeaks]

updated version!

"s"- still the best! honestly it was hard to find one that was updated so this was the closest i could get and elm basically is swappable from this to the "you deserve better" tier. but he is really fun, he just suffers from the bad plot and a less than ideal art style/neutral art. sooo :/

"really enjoyed their character"- surprisingly ylgr + helbindi are the only ones here! i think if ash or peo didnt have their loyalty to people and if seithr didnt have such a sadboi plot theyd probably be up higher too. but those two have it all- a good, compelling story, nice designs/aesthetic, and consistency in later appearances. esp props to this literal bean child telling off crappy adults for being awful

"you deserve better"- they have a lot of really good potential, but imo is underutilized bc of the story having to be "black and white morality for the main/player cast". loki/thorr i love esp, and i love writing them as neutral forces in fics. ganglot deserves so much better, tbh shes the most sympathetic in the tempest trial easily. tri has been so mistreated and im glad her sisterly relationship w peo is finally being pushed. otr and faf suffered so much, and just hoping for good faf content this year! and ofc my boi njorthur. pls have a cute new years version. he could be in the "top tier" if his neutral lines/etc are good

"i like them"- theyre cool! i enjoy their content. most everyone here is a solid character imo, and just in a standalone setting i like watching their content. ok kva sir is mostly here for her design more than personality, since her only traits are that shes kinda the sacrificial lamb of the plot and has a crush on the player. but her design is just really nice so shes here. ash and peo as aformentioned have nice personalities, and seithr just gave the biggest middle finger to the order and canon in her epilogue that i gotta respect her. ymir is also here, since i felt like she added a degree of moral greyness to the plot. shes a really kind person, but she lets eir get away with things that one shouldnt, but its also understandable and sympathetic/tragic why she does that.

"neutral"- theyre ok. i dont dislike them but i dont really feel any strong liking to them. the owls are the mascots, so ofc they have to be neutral. fjo rm and surtr did their jobs as the main character and villain good enough, and i like fjo rms neutrality in story stuff, fb for instance, i find it infinitely more appealing than "depression is beautiful" or the main characters just being really insensitive to everyone with different beliefs. em bla is a surprisingly good boss to elm, which really surprised me. i wish she had a cooler design to reflect being both a dragon and a beast, and i wish she had better taste in men but oh well. eir is also neutral, her arc.. makes sense. but it doesnt really give a feeling of being proud of what path shes chosen for me. same with reginn tbh. heithr and nerthus are also both ok, i dont feel strongly abt either. they were underutilized imo but im glad esp that heithr got to be playable despite her tiny role. eitr is a weird one, since shes really important to my fic but im neutral at best towards her. basically she hasnt done any bad stuff /yet/ so i dont really have any reason to blame her for the awful stuff her future self will do.

:/ tier- this is basically the closest you get to me admitting not to like characters. which considering how big it is is saying something lol.

the order are just horrible. if g f wasnt a thing i could say theyre my least favorite gacha protagonists, but they are at least very unpleasant. i really dont get the fandoms obsessive love for them, i just find them uncomfortable, creepy, and unpleasant. the player only gets higher rating bc they just dont do anything. they can be anything or nothing, and i much prefer the latter. the rest of the royal family basically just encourage their shitty kids, so theyre slightly better but not by much. the emblians who arent elm are pretty much equally unpleasant, and i really dont like the "bosses who we recruit the servant of, who is loyal to him even tho hes a fucking creep and an asshole, and the story wants us to like him so glosses over that or tries to justify it". imo the dragons in b2 were such a waste, there couldve been an interesting plot but it ended up being horrible (i think a plot abt nifl mom or menja wouldve been infinitely more hype, but they couldve made the dragons work too). b3 was basically a ripoff of the f ate series which was extremely cringe, but it wasnt as bad as it could get. h el was an ok antagonist, but basically ganglot is all of the better traits of her, and i guess i kinda blame her for the awful main plot of b3 lol. b4 had really strong characters with the main 4 alfr but the rest of the characters and plot beats sucked, and the latest stuff with ginnun supposed to be from "the players world aka modern day" is just as cringe as it was in b4. like it actually makes zero sense how is no one else seeing this. the b5 characters i also found really unlikeable. the sisters have no responsibility or positive traits, and what little positive traits dagr briefly has in like. the nyna forging bonds for instance is immediately bulldozed by awful traits. gull veig was an interesting idea/concept for an antagonist but /really/ suffered from the sadboi stuff during cyl, at least for me.

not pictured but rata would be neutral, for now. all things considered (her bad judge of character and overall loyalty to the order/immediately betraying her family) i kinda see her staying there. however nidhogger and hressvel i could see being as high as top tier, or at least joining ylgr and helbindi possibly.

f-h thing

Keep reading

- Platonic Purpled x Revived!Reader

- Anon Requested!

⚠︎: slight swearing, angst to fluff-ish, gore, no dsmp spoilers.

An// I know this is late but I'm having major writers block lol ✌🏾😛 I hope you like it love!

The night was cold as he sat on a hill away from the kingdom Dream had made himself. The tall grass flowed around him like a blanket on his bed he wish he could be in right now, but he chose this, he chose to be here. His blonde hair whipped around his face harshly, but he didnt bother move it out of his eyes he could still see the destination ahead of him.

The kingdom looking like a bright star the fell to the ground. He used to love sitting and watching the lights of the kingdom at night flicker like a fallen star that still had its glow. The small smile he had on his face fell when his mind reminded him of the tragedy a month ago.

The night was cold and dark and that couldn't resemble how he was feeling right now. Anger, resentment, betrayed flowed through his heart. He wanted revenge.

The swords were already shined and ready for blood, arrows sharpened to the point, and potions made to kill the second it envelopes you. Months of preparation was right there next to him, ready to be finally used.

He wanted revenge for his best friend.

He left the kingdom for an hour grabbing every weapon he had before finding a place he used to go with his best friend.

----------------

"The kingdom looks beautiful!" You said while standing up in the tall grass.

Purpled had taken you to a far away spot out of the dsmp kingdom just for fun.

"I know, I come here often when I want to clear my head." Purpled said while sitting down in the hill letting the grass tickle his skin.

It was the middle of the say and almost sun down. You two had hiked up away from the kingdom and up a semi huge hill that gave a great view of the lights.

"How did you find this place?" You smiled to the boy sitting down to the side of you.

"Just was hiking I guess!" He laughed. "Well I was looking for more caves outside of the kingdom and stood on this hill, and looked back and saw the beautiful view."

"Now this is your spot now?" You smiled and nodded.

"I mean it's our spot now. You're the only other person who knows about it." Purpled motioned for his friend to sit down and you did.

"Great." You smiled at him and he shared that smile.

"Great."

------------------

He finally stood up from his spot on the hill and made his way back to the kingdom, weapons at his mercy and ready to be used.

The walk back to the kingdom was long, but he wasnt in a rush. He just wanted to keep his mind calm before he finally faced the man who he wanted to kill. The man whos blood should be on his arrows and swords he just sharpened for this occasion.

He walks with purpose and in stride. He always does, he was always busy around the kingdom. Making something new or not even saying what he was doing, no one would want to cross his path because no one would want to know what trouble he was gettng himself into. But they always knew he would come put alive in the end.

He walked along the prime path keeping his gaze forward. He sped up his walk trying to get to the place he needs to go faster to get this feeling out of his body. Sadly him staring straight ahead made him bump shoulders with someone passing by. He didn't have the time to look back and stop, but a familiar voice made him stop.

"Hey! Watch where the fuck you are going!"

Damn it.

He tried to walk away, but he heard the footsteps get closer and the protests get louder.

"Hey asshole! You know Im talking to you Purpled?! Stop!"

"What do you want Quackity?!"

"Damn it took that long for you to turn around?!" The scarred man laughed as the blonde started at him blankly.

Quackity had a small smirk on his face before he looked around to make sure no one else is spying on them. Quackity chuckled while crossing his arms looking at the impatient blonde infront of him.

"What. Do. You. Want. Shouldn't you be in Las Nevadas?" He scoffed.

"I should! I should. But I heard about your little predicament." Quackity still had that taunting smile on his face.

"I wouldn't call it a predicament I would call it a missi-"

"A mission. Yeah I know, that's what you call every thing now-a-days." Quackity shook his head in disbelief. "Even when your best friend dies..Its a damn misson."

Purpled stayed quiet and let the older man talk. He didn't need to hear this, but at least this will hunor him before his miss- plans.

"Its a shame! It really is. But you know what Purpled?" Quackity's voice got quieter.

"If this is about Las Nevadas, you should leave. I have more pressing matters to attend to."

"I bet you do." Quackity looked away from the blonde. "Its a shame that you dont even know where Dream is to kill him."

--------------

"Y/N! Get out of my way!"

"I will not let you hurt him!"

"Get out of his way!"

Purpled was injured, pretty badly at that. He was clutching his side in pain where a arrow had struck him. His face had long cuts across it, and so did his body. The only way you could see the cuts along his body is because the cuts Dream had made tore through his clothes.

Purpled looked like he couldn't stand back up. You didn't want to know why they were fighting so brutally, you only showed up when Dream stood above Purpled about to take the final blow, sword clutched tightly in-between his hands.

The only thing you saw was that and you ran in the middle of the two blocking Dream from doing anymore damage to Purpled. Now the two men are yelling at you to get out of Dream's way.

"You're really stubborn aren't you?" Dream dropped his sword to his side, but still kept that tight grip on the handle.

"For my friends, yeah I am." You said with your head held high looking at the masked man.

"Y/N." Purpled groaned behind you. "Go, please."

You turned your whole body around to face him. He couldn't get up, still kneeling on the ground he tried to move and stand to his full height. It was impossible for him to do so. You saw a keep gash where his knee is. Dream must've stabbed his knee, through his knee.

"You stay down! I can handle this!"

"Where is your armor?! Huh?! Where is all your gear?! You're vulnerable!"

"You are too!"

"As much as this pains me to see the two bestest friends fight, Move." Dream said sternly while placing a rough hand on your shoulder.

"Dream get your hand off of them!" Purpled yelled.

"At this point you cannot tell me what to do." Dream chuckled. "This state that you're in! Its pathetic!"

Purpled hung his head low while Dream kept on running his mouth.

"Y/N! Do you even want to know why we're even fighting?! Its all his-"

"I dont want to know. Frankly I dont care just stop hurting him." Your words came out calmer than you wanted because you really were vulnerable at this point.

"I haven't even finished the job, my misson." Dream scoffed.

"If you wanto to finish "your mission" go through me first." You said while finding Purpled's sword on the ground next to him and gripping it tightly just like Dream.

"Y/N stop this!"

"Fine then."

Dream had grabbed your shoulder again so hard it could leave a bruise and brought your shoulders forward. You didn't have any time to react and the next thing you saw when you looked down was his sword going through your stomach. It hurt to breathe, and you felt yourself coughing up blood onto the grass beneath you. He had finally let go of your shoulder and you fell to your side letting your body go numb.

"NO DREAM!" Purpled tried to reach you, but ended up getting kicked down by Dream.

"Im done with you now. Its no point. I thought killing you would be better, but watching you suffer after your best friend gets killed is good enough for me."

"My mission is done, and they were right. You are vulnerable."

-------------

"Where is he then?" He asked trying not to sound rushed.

"You would like to know huh? Well Let me tell you about this thing I have first. I mean if you want to know where Dream is for your little mission" Quackity proposed and he stayed quiet waiting for the older man's response.

"I have this book, it was given to me by an old ally of mine. It has all of the lives of everyone in it. The whole book is filled with names and if they are dead or not-"

"Where are you going with this?" He interrupted.

"Im saying that not everyone knows of Y/N's death. Its not any big headlines. So I read this book often and I so happened to see their name and underneath it, it said they were dead."

"And?"

"I have a proposal-"

"No." He started to walk away leaving Quackity to stand and yell at the younger one.

"Oh come on! Dont you want your friend back?!" Quackity yelled as the other walked away briskly.

"Fine! You'll owe me!"

----------

It was over. He ended up back on the same hill again, but this time it was pitch black and the only light available was the light in the stars and the light from the kingdom. He could hear faint noises of mobs in the distance, but they didn't dare come near him.

His eyes started to water and his vision began to get blurry. He didn't kill Dream, he couldn't. That's not what you would've wanted.

Dream was right all along. He was vulnerable, he was always vulnerable.

He closed his eyes letting tears drop onto his cheeks. He was upset that he couldn't fulfill his mission, the one thing he knew he could do for the one he misses the most in life. He failed. And now Dream is sitting somewhere, he didn't even take Quackity's proposal. He didn't even know what Dream was to kil him.

Still, even if he wasnt discouraged, he would've still tried to hunt Dream down. He didn't care if it took him months to a year, he didn't care if it killed him. One day.

He looked out to the kingdom once more with eyes full of tears. The kingdom now looking like a ball of light and not as detailed.

"Purpled?"

He sighed brushing the call off, he was hearing things.

"Hey, Purpled."

He shook his head with his hands cupping his face. He was convincing himself that his head was playing tricks on him because there is no one that could be out here at this time.

"I thought I would get a warmer welcome than this."

He felt the grass moving beside him and he quickly turned his head to his right where he saw the person he wanted to the most. You.

It was you, but you had a white streak in your hair, your stomach still had a bigger scar still on it. It was you, it was finally you. He hesitated before reaching out to hug you, there was some tall grass in between you two but it didn't matter, he had you back. You had to feel tears fall on your back because he was crying, he tried to keep his sobs quiet but they slipped out.

"Are you okay?" He asked while sniffing.

"Im alive now. Thats progress." You responded hesitantly before continuing. "I wanted to stay dead. I mean it had to be my time right? I was in hell and I don't know why. Why was I there?!"

You started sobbing on his shirt as well and you took a big breath before starting to talk again.

"And then I just showed up not that far from here. It was horrible, like an out of body experience. I dont know who brought me back either! But now I found you here and Im okay enough." You smiled with tiredness in your eyes as you pulled away from the long hug.

"I tried to kill Dream." He confessed.

"Because of me?"

He hummed in agreement "I couldn't, thats not what you would've wanted."

"Why would you know what I wanted?" You asked the blonde. "I was dead for a month."

"You wanted me to kill him?" He asked with a bit of excitement in his voice.

"Consider this a new mission." You smiled while standing up and him following suit.

"My mission." He whispered while looking at the ground. "It'll take a while, but we'll get him. I promise."

You two locked pinkie fingers together to seal the promise. A promise that would be sealed to the end of time. No matter how long or who dies, he never fails a mission.

"Oh! Also, I have a note for you." You handed him a small torn note that you found lying next to you when you reappeared.

--------------

Dear Purpled,

You're welcome. They're here now.

Remember that favor I never got to ask you?

I suppose you should listen to me now.

Q

[zabadi]

pls share thoughts on creed 2 being medicore in comp to creed 1

i mean part of it is that creed 1 is just an exceptionally good movie of its genre its humble and organic and sweet ryan coogler both wrote and directed it and one of his talents as a storyteller is his ability to take tropes/stories/characters that have been done a thousand times and make them feel fresh and new anyway. i rewatch creed all the time its like top 3 comfort movies for me

creed 2 had much less input from ryan coogler and much more input from sylvester stallone lmao and even just the dialogue will tell you that much. in creed they just feel like regular ass people genuine underdogs. in creed 2 the dialogue is all written and delivered w the knowledge that they're Legends. especially sylvester stallone lmao he wants rocky to be more than a sweet old guy in a lame hat even tho rocky is Best when he's not being overshadowed by his own legacy. plus they leave philadelphia :( it felt so grounded and comforting when they were in philly i loved how prominently the city figured into the first one

not to mention bianca....i dont even remember what she did in this movie beyond getting pregnant and getting famous. her music was wayy fucking worse in this movie too in creed her music was giving coolgirl indie underground cunt in creed 2 its just bad. Also doesnt he walk out to one of her songs? I hated that. it wasnt a good song. also if memory serves they react to their daughter being born deaf as if it's a massive tragedy which i remember finding odd...like ofc being disabled isnt easy but if i remember right they were acting like she was going to die or something lmao

i did like the actual plot of the movie lmao i cant help it i love fighting movies abt father son relationships. if ryan coogler wrote and directed i think it couldve been great with very few changes to the actual plot it was just not a good script and the actors were not being directed right bc everyone's performance was markedly worse compared to creed 1

creed 3 honestly looks like its going to suffer a lot of similar problems lmfao i dont have any faith in michael b jordan as a director and ryan coogler was involved in story but he didnt actually write it. But if theres one thing i like more than fighting movies abt father son relationships its fighting movies about being gay. and the antagonist in this movie looks sooo homoerotic and jonathan majors is a great actor. So im really hoping that the central relationship btwn donnie and damian is going to be compelling enough to make up for the deficits im anticipating

[obeysword]

for all the deserved salt i give marie. there’s serious no worse written character who is so shoehorned in and forced on a protag as there is her. i didnt even romance her and on v-day she implied to have kissed me after giving me chocolate and telling me to close my eyes. there is so much about her that DEVALUES what persona 4 is and means. there is so much about her that shouldn’t exist within this game. she was never a thought from the original, and so obvious with how shoved on you and the rest of the team. don’t wear the colors you like, that’s green that’s still red. i’m not going to learn your names. i’m not going to be nice to any one of you. also i’m so gorgeous i’m going to make the least implied sexual character try to sneak a peak at me in the bath. and then i’ll create a lightning storm bc aren’t i just that amazing? “i hate you all. i hope you die” girl you make me wanna die having any scene where you’re in? i don’t know why anyone would tolerate the literal abuse this character puts on others. none of the IT would like her? she’s the most entitled character to yu’s time and affection despite the fact that each time i can be mean to her i was. i’m basically implied to be dating her from our first meeting. it’s kinda sick tbh. but she’s just so important to my destiny.

why does izanami even have to exist when perfect, i’m wearing my bargain bin hot-topic, is here to do the job for her? izanami is a terrifying character in every aspect of her role. but no, marie comes along and says: i’m a caged bird. you have to let me die. i came in here to die. pls don’t save me. i love how she stole from 2 female characters in this one timeslot alone, a third if you count izanami. naoto’s character has little screentime and her reason for going into the tv knowing she may die in the process of being kidnapped to discover the truth was reworked into marie. then, we’re going to use the same motif yukiko had on marie too. marie marie marie, you’re just so lovely. everyone loves you so much. it makes no sense? there’s no build up. there’s no depth. she’s a terrible character based off of my immortal and i hate that yu has to be the one to suffer her affections.

Kusumi-no-Okami is the only boss besides Izanami to have defeated the entire Investigation Team. i’m not even sure how to call bullshit here. bc there’s so much wrong with this statement. The fight ends with Yu using Izanagi-no-Okami to impale the shadow and free Marie. if you were gonna stab her, she wouldn’t exist anymore. izanagi-no-okami stabbed izanami, she died. it’s literally a metaphor for the righteous sword of god purging evil. marie is the evil from mankind. if she was going to kill everyone, yu would have awakened to his power a month earlier to save everyone. i don’t think he would ever spare marie for doing it. he takes things too personal. kill his friends, kill yosuke, well you can just die. it’s bullshit.

p4 is a coming of age story if there was one. the fact you add a character who is done up with anime tropes, make other characters suddenly super OOC to fit her in. she takes away from so many. including the sagiri and why adachi and namatame were picked in the first place. she is constantly insulting the velvet room, a manifestation of YU’S HEART. for a guy you’re said to love? you’re really an asshole. it hurts so much having to hear that with all the time and things i’ve poured into the velvet room. the amount atlus did for akira and minako/minato. it’s not even funny. you are literally insulting a person’s true emotions and true feelings by calling it cramped and stuffy. teddie has a scene in the limo, and it’s one of the sweetest moments of his character bc he says he never wants to leave it’s warm and nostalgic. there’s nothing good about marie’s character so i don’t see why fandom just adores her to the degree she is. she’s terrible in every scene to every single character even to where she’s literally the implied love interest? if that doesn’t make me sick idk what does. they do the same with sumi in 5, but somehow it feels worse with marie. bc even if you’re dating someone, you’re still dating marie. how fun.

Just Outside of His Wrath

[Ticci Toby X GN!Reader]

[Warnings: mentions of emotional abuse, language]

[AN: Hi love bug, I know you've been waiting for this one for a while, and honestly I don't have the mental energy to write a whole 2.5K - 5K words for this. With everything going on in my life, I felt it better to push this out rather than make you wait any longer. I ended up just making a super short scenario that got right to the point. I hope that suffices. If not, feel free to blow up my inbox - it's deserved.]

Cold, you feel cold. It burns like the ice of the arctic, searing through your soul as you come to terms that what happened to you when you were younger wasn’t normal. That what happened to you when you were younger wasn’t okay.

It took him ages to finally get you to say it. Toby’s patience was unwavering, that much was certain, but even then it wore thin with how long he had to watch you suffer in silence. Small apologies, flinches, micro-movements that told him something had happened, hell, the constant questioning of whether what you said was true or not… It drove him up a wall because he knew you were hesitating and hurting and there was nothing he could do to help you until you opened up.

And when you finally did open up and tell him the nitty gritty of everything your parents had done to you, the emotional manipulation, the gas lighting, every little thing they’d ever made you feel in the form of trauma to be carried for years to come? Toby’s wrath was burning hotter than the sun, a star on the verse of death ready to create a supernova.

“They made me question every little thing,” you whispered as you lay sobbing in his arms one late night while in the backseat of a stolen car. “They made me feel like I was insane for even speaking.”

Toby’s brows furrowed as he brushed his fingers lovingly over your back in an attempt to soothe you as he briefly toyed with the ends of your lovely strands. “I’m s-s-so sorry,” he murmured as he pressed kisses to the top of your head.

You recoiled back into yourself, crystalline tears cascading down your cheeks. “I should have known,” you weep. “It was my fault for being so fucking ignorant and-”

Toby clenched his hold around you, his eyes sparking with fire. “Don’t you e-e-ever say that,” he hisses, derailing your train of thought instantly. “D-Don’t you ever, e-ever say that,” he repeated.

“Why?” You said through your tears, voice weak and frail. “It was all my fault for not noticing or speaking up-”

Toby growled under his breath, moving you from his chest. His eyes bored into you, dark and commanding as his hand reached up to hold your chin. “Look a-a-at me.”

You’ve never seen him so upset.

“What h-happened then w-w-was never your fault. Y-You were under t-t-the care of p-people you were s-supposed to trust t-them, and they b-b-betrayed you.” He wiped away the tears from your cheeks lovingly with his thumb before pressing his lips to the corners of your eyes. “N-Nothing was e-ever your f-fault.”

You looked up at him, glossy eyed and hazy. “But I-”

“B-But nothing,” he hushed you. “L-Let me t-t-take this f-from your s-shoulders, okay?” He murmured quietly, kisses planting on your face before pulling gently from the tip of your nose.

You took in a deep, shaky breath, briefly catching the storm in his eyes and nod.
