…does Vamp Au Wesker enjoy consuming Jordan’s menstrual blood too………? Sorry, asking for scientific purposes. 😅 Integral information right here.

bro what LMFAOOOO

This is killing me so bad but yeah, no definitely he’s a vampire this guys bloodthirst goes through the roof once he gets a whiff of it, I like to think Vamp! Wesker has the nostrils of a shark and can smell blood from miles away, so when he realizes his favourite prey is on her period, the minute the more pungent and strong scent wafts against his nose it’s over. Jordan is found within mere seconds and he wastes no time in desecrating the poor woman, his already painful bites are much, much more painful and he’s manhandling her way rougher than he usually does, pants OFF immediately he’s eating it and relishing in the taste while Jordan is desperately trying to pry him off her, I think he’d fuck her on her period too Vamp! Wesker is freaky like that.

anyway not NSFW but here’s a doodle regarding this LMAO sorry I don’t wanna draw him doing uhhh..

bucky is not the white wolf.

white wolf is just a nickname bucky got in wakanda as a little nod to the white wolf character in the comics, aka hunter. i read somewhere that shuri called him that for fun bc bucky was a lone wolf and the only white man in wakanda. it was always meant as a little fun teasing thing for shuri to call bucky. hence why sam’s title is the only one that changed at the end of the falcon and winter soldier, bucky’s stayed the same.

hunter was t’challa and shuri’s adopted brother, a boy named hunter who turned into the white wolf and became one of wakanda’s biggest villains… which is not bucky at all..

bucky is not the white wolf, he is winter soldier. i have a feeling that they’re going to have him do what he did in the comics which was keep the name but make it his own, he doesn’t need a new title to suddenly be good or himself. to me it’s a powerful move on bucky’s part to use the name he was given and make it into something he can be proud of.

notice how in the thunderbolts trailer they’ve removed “the” from “the winter soldier” that to me says that he’s no longer THE winter soldier, he’s bucky barnes, winter soldier. there’s a difference :)

i really suggest googling hunter and the white wolf and reading about him, ‘cause it shows that it’s not bucky at all, it’s a completely different fleshed out comic character.

I actually did know about the White Wolf being a separate character in the comics, I just think that the MCU is liable to do anything. As mentioned with Joaquin in particular, they changed a lot of his story to fit the screen. There may be no White Wolf in the MCU, or there could be; we don't know officially yet. But we do have the instance of T'Challa calling him this in Avengers: Infinity War (x) (I searched for other scenes but couldn't find any; I don't know if it's out loud said by other Wakandans). Then there's the back-and-forth Sam and Bucky got into during The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, where Bucky clarifies that he's the White Wolf (x). It's not teasing; it's the actual literal title that the Wakandans gave him.

Additionally, comic White Wolf was their adopted brother, as you've mentioned. At the risk of being repetitive, I don't think they are going to do a secret family member thing again. Nowhere in the Black Panther movies has a third sibling been mentioned, and I hardly think they are going to suddenly throw one in. "White Wolf" also makes sense for the role he played in Wakanda as a goat herder. With the association of animal traits and his asylum as a dormant wild animal (presumably with a deal that he would fight for them should they ask, even though they respect him and his healing process: "This one may be tired of war, but the White Wolf has rested long enough"), he is, for all intents and purposes, the White Wolf. He's just not the same White Wolf as the comics.

I think in some cases the usage / disusage of "the" in a title can mean a lot. I'm not sure that's the case here. None of the other characters in Thunderbolts* have a "the" in their title. Disregarding the ones that only use their real names, Red Guardian and Ghost both do not have "the" in the trailer, even though they are "the" of their title. I think the trailer was just formed like that for the sake of continuity and aesthetics. There is no essential difference between saying "The Winter Soldier" versus "A Winter Soldier"; it's still his title, still who he was. A more impactful way to do that is to refer to the Winter Soldier always in the past tense, which... is not what is happening.

Names have an incredible amount of meaning. Names are how you identify something. It literally gives the identity, the meaning, to a person. Mania-sama is my identity; it is who I am, to everyone around me, and to myself. I have my real name, given to me by my parents, and have thus been used for my whole to give me meaning and identity. I have a great fascination with the changing/keeping of names when it comes to characters like Bucky. Because there are two ways to go about it: keeping the name and changing the connotation behind it by your actions, or shedding the name to fledge into something new. Neither is bad and both make for incredibly impactful storytelling. My favorite example of the latter is from the massively popular game, Genshin Impact. A character who had similarly been used by an evil master to kill and eat dreams went by the name of Alatus. After he was rescued, he still used the name for some purposes, but his rescuer gave him the name Xiao. That is the name we use for him in the game, and that is the name he gives us to use with affection and trust. Alatus is for war; Xiao is him.

For Bucky, I think I would prefer if he went under a new name. I wouldn't really want it to be White Wolf, either; I think it would be best if it was something he could give to himself. The agency of his character is important to me. However, that doesn't mean they can't make keeping the identity of Winter Soldier work. I just... don't think he himself fully identifies with that anymore.

But that's my two cents on it, anyway. Thank you so much for the ask! I love talking about thematics. Bucky is a wonderfully fun and complex character to analyze.

I’m an outsider to the miraculous fandom, generally because of anxiety stuff but I have this silly little Felix idea I think you would really like. (Or maybe I’m just dumb and this has been done before)

So I’m a bit obsessed with flower symbolism, right? My favorite being roses. For Felix, (and sentis in general) I think the two types of blue roses are perfect symbolism.

1.) Classic Royal Blue Rose

I’m not sure how common this fact is, but bright blue roses aren’t real. They’re artificial. White Roses dyed blue. Symbolically, They represent royalty, mystery and that which is unobtainable. Theres also some folk lore that they can grant wishes.

2.) Genetically Altered “Blue” Roses

So, in the early 2000’s (coincidentally around when Adrien and Felix would have been born?) Scientists wanted to find a way to make “naturally” occurring blue roses. Their attempts to create these roses was technically successful, but they aren’t actually blue. They are more of a pinky-purple-blue, it’s a fairly wide range, but almost all of the photos of them that I’ve seen are either the color of Argos’ eyes or his skin.

So basically I think both types of “blue” roses serve as a baller senti allegory…..

Specifically, Colt Fathom would be the “scientist” in search of creating the elusive royal blue rose. Something that doesn’t occur in nature, representing desire (yk peacock miraculous moment) and what is unobtainable. Yet, all he manages to make is the mauve-colored blue rose, Felix.

Or, Alternatively, Adrien could be the Royal blue rose to Felix’s genetically altered rose.

Adrien was molded for mass appeal by his father, meant to be widely adored by the people. Like the genetically altered rose, it is artificial, but it’s also considered to be beautiful, elegant and desired. People want the royal blue rose, just as Emilie and Gabe wanted him.

Meanwhile, the genetically altered blue rose is lowkey…, a little disappointing? It’s not what people were hoping for. It’s not what people envision when they think of blue roses, because dude it’s fricken purple. In a way, that could be how bitchass Mr Fathom saw his son. Unnatural, but without the charms of the dyed royal blue rose.

Or, double alternatively,

Adrien is already kinda associated with red roses anyway. He’s constantly giving them to LB, season 5 ends with him and Mari kissing in Emilie’s red rose garden.

Which would give Felix symbolism rights to both kind of blue roses.

Imagining a kiss scene to parallel adrinette kiss where it’s Felix and Kagami sharing a kiss in a garden of blue roses. Artificial but still beautiful

Oh Anon you know exactly what to say to make me experience Thoughts and Feelings. Pictures for reference (Classic Royal Blue on the left, genetically altered on the right):

Look at this blue. It’s literally peacock blue. And damn if this isn’t Argos lilac I don’t know what is

I can definitely see the symbolism working both ways! Felix being a more vibrant, but also harsher version of Adrien’s soft hues… The royal/religious symbolism associated with this shade of blue specifically… It works so well…

But I love Classic Royal Blue Adrien and genetically altered Felix even more, for all the reasons you listed. What is a monster, if not a deviation from the norm? I think I’ve written Kagami going heart eyes over Argos’ more “inhuman” features enough for everyone to know how beautiful she would find it… 💜

SPEAKING OF KAGAMI. I think we could go on a whole tangent about her association with red roses and passion — how she couldn’t find it in Adrien and Mari but eventually did in Felix. They SHOULD kiss in a rose garden and they SHOULD make it everyone’s problem! 🌹

I’m rereading spores and after reading chapter 3 of doctor doctor holy shit!!! The amount of just giggling and having to stop to fangirl about all the little details that are brought up in doctor doctor and knowing what Ford really feels??? Makes me want to punch something UGHHH.

fjkhasjhjsd he's been down bad for a while bless him.

Honestly a lot of what I write ends up being on the fly but I think I must carry the themes subconsciously because they always seem to loop together. It's intentional in some places but not always, so it's good to know it all works together.

Hellooo I didn't see someone asking this before but maybe I'm blind. I was thinking of starting to watch Bonanza and Dr. Quinn. I am interested but I'm a little afraid of how big they are so to speak? I thought asking you what you like about them would be cool? Your posts are so nice!

I love westerns and I don't need romance romance but I am also not feeling the newer series like Yellowstone if that makes sense? So I thought maybe Bonanza and Dr. Quinn would be the ones to try.

Hello!! Both VERY good and fun shows!! But yes both can definetly feel like quite the undertaking, especially Bonanza (looks at the 14 seasons)

If I'm to say what I like about Bonanza we might be here a while and this post will get very long, it is my favorite tv show after all, but I'll try to keep it short! I really overrall enjoy the characters and family aspect of it. All the adventures and situations they get into and how they interact with each other and the people around them. Bonanza is more of an anthology series, where each episode has it's own plot and the series doesn't follow one main plot (well I guess the main plot is following The Cartwrights and the stuff they get into each episode). The anthology-ness of it sometimes might make it easier to watch, cause honestly you can kinda skip around the episodes and seasons and watch the ones that you think sound interesting plotwise if you don't feel like starting from the beginning and watch all the episodes (or if you start at the begining to familiarize yourself with the characters and get tired of watching it in order). But keep in mind this is a long TV show that started in 1959 and ended in 1973, so the show look and feel rather different in the later seasons than in the first ones, but naturally it still follows the same premise. You REALLY do not have to watch all of it in order to enjoy it.

In Bonanza you kinda have everything. You got humor, drama, action, extreme sillyness and more dramatic darker themes and lots of other things and I really like that! there is romance also but it's more like.... what girl is Joe dating this episode and then you never hear about her again. and also

While Dr. Quinn is probably best to watch from the start and work your way through it. It's alot more heavy on the romance side tho (the cheesy campy good kind of romance mind you). It's a very feel-good and sweet TV show that also isn't afraid to get dark and dramatic and also being cheerful. I like it cause it gives me a wierd 90's romance drama nostalgia that I really love along with family drama.

HOWEVER if you feel like trying out some other older western shows that aren't as lengthy as Bonanza and Dr. Quinn, I can recommend these:

The Magnificant Seven (1998-2000)

The Young Riders (1989-1992)

Bordertown (1989-1991)

Little Men (1998-1999)

I also totally understand not vibing with newer shows like Yellowstone! Personally I really don't watch alot of newer westerns cause they feel to gritty for me. I prefer the vibe of the 60's-90's westerns.

In regards to Ishval potentially being framed as an equal power against Amestris in that ask about WWII;

It’s more obvious in Mangahood but there’s a detail about how Ishvalan soldiers are a lot more skilled than Amestrians due to their training; It was said 1 Ishvalan could take down 10 soldiers, something like that. And the idea was that this made Amestris resort to the State Alchemists to win, this was why Bradley signed order 3066.

And I can’t help but be reminded of how Vietnam veterans will talk about how scary it was to occupy a village because the viet cong boogeyman could be any one of the villagers! They would ‘hide’ among them and attack! So the Americans just HAD to raze down villagers to keep themselves safe!

Also IIRC there was a moment in the manga during the genocide flashback where some soldiers barge into an Ishvalan congregation, and the priest makes a prayer to Ishvala before he and all of the civilians blow themselves up. And we see a soldier scared and dying from the explosion from the perspective of our traumatized war criminal protagonist who was there, I forgot which one.

Y I K E S

"Ishvalan soldiers are a lot more skilled than Amestrians" Based

"1 Ishvalan could take down 10 soldiers" EXCEPTIONALLY BASED

Imperialists are pathetic in every way possible. Real world imperialists will cry and shit themselves about their precious veterans (may they die alongside their wretched nations) having "suffered" at the hands of resistance/guerilla fighters and I have to laugh. And of course when their foot soldiers can't wipe a people out, in come the chemical weapons, the endless missiles, the war planes, the horrifying array of bombs, the embargoes, and so forth. And still, they can lose. That's important to remember.

May every empire fall, and may its profiteers, politicians, its wealthy, its cops/militarymen suffer a hundred-fold as their classes one day disappear. And may liberation come to those who suffered the wars and the boots of these powers.

some soldiers barge into an Ishvalan congregation, and the priest makes a prayer to Ishvala before he and all of the civilians blow themselves up

I'm sorry WHAT

Arakawa. Arakawa, answer me. Why the fuck would you use the "evil muslims brown people do a suicide bombing in their mosque temple to harm the poor white soldiers" trope?! Are you fucking kidding me?

Awesome, so the prowess and strategies of the Ishvalans once again circles back to a racist caricature of the "powerful, merciless savages". Great. Fantastic. Cool.

Reading this manga is going to feel like a goddamned lobotomy

[slanky-here]

I'm always really happy when I find someone that likes all three Gautier men and you're so spot on about them. I've been going through your posts about them going 'yeah that's absolutely right!' and 'YEAH YOU GET IT, YOU GET IT', lmao. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about them! I struggle sometimes to properly put it into words what I like about them so much, but you nailed it!

Real ones see the triforce dynamic that all of the Gautier men have with one another ✌️

A beautifully messy family is wasted on an annoying fanbase who wants to hatesink characters most of the time

[tyracaterinagrant]

to me Casper’s answer (along with the rest of tennis’ general attitude towards zverev) was a representation of how a lot of the players feel, or their lack of feeling tbh. cherry picking who gets called out and then posting about faves as if they don’t share similar sentiments seems odd and hypocritical

i don't think i did that? i didn't even call anyone out. i just said my personal reaction to that answer was to be particularly pissed off. i'm well aware, and i said so, that they're all part of the problem, including my faves

since nymphia will be going to paris for cultural olympics, the chance of seeing dada and nymphia in the same frame is there

I KNOWWWW, they're also friends with marina so even if it doesn't happen for the olympics i'm sure it'll happen sometime 😭 and once it does i will be insufferable, i'm sorry in advance!

like "oui" on the team nymphia post caught me very off guard cause i'm almost sure that was the first time dada openly supported a finalist? and for her to comment even when she hardly ever comments on anything... hot women love nymphia wind <3

it's not that serious. unless it is that serious. in which case i need everyone else to take it as seriously as me otherwise i will explode palamedes sextus style and then we'll all be sorry
