Ok I was watching Transformers: Prime, and something is bothering me.
So, in the end(spoiler alert), the Autobots reclaim Cybertron, and Optimus' sacrifice leaves them to rebuild. Ok, great.
Then, we see a scene where the bots are using the decepticon drones for labor, having them clear out rubble and in general doing some pretty dangerous tasks. One even falls off a ledge after getting struck by a piece of building material. All the while, the bots are standing over them with bitter expressions. Overseeing them like they're slaves.
Now, I can understand being a bit bitter about the whole thing; they were the ones the bots often fought, but you have to understand something. These drones were literally designed and built by the Decepticons to serve Megatron. In spite of them being essentially artificial intelligence, they've been shown to have their own personalities. They joke, they chat with each other, they scream when struck down. Their whole purpose is to serve a master that's mia. He's gone, not sure what he even wants. He's gone into self-imposed exile for his actions. So you can imagine that they're going through their own identity crisis. Their only purpose is gone. On top of that, you have the Autobots treating them with coldness, with a lack of support. Almost like they're slaves.
Remember, they didn't choose to serve Megatron. They were never given a choice, and it seems like the bots are taking their anger at Megatron out on them. And that's not fair.
Also, did they forget how this war started?? Megatronus was a slave, a miner who clawed his way up by fighting. It was all he knew; that he could fight, and that he deserved to fight for a better life. He was oppressed by those who saw him as nothing more than free labor and entertainment. Eventually he realized a fundamental truth.
That as long as there are those who benefit from a corrupt system, that system will prevail.
So, he took action in the only way he knew how. I'm not excusing his actions, but Megatron can at least be understood on a certain level.
Back to the clones, who's to say that Steve won't make the same decision? The Autobots have no right to mistreat them, after all. They're just reinstalling the same imbalanced system that led to Cybertron's fall in the first place.
It just pisses me off, they should all know better. After all. They've seen this before.
Then again, as they say: History is doomed to repeat itself.
#transformers+prime#justice for the Steves!#i love the bots but they can piss off with this superiority bull#mouse rambles#see this is why ive been radio silent#im fine just rewatching this show lol#louder for the people in the back#megatronus was a victim of classism and abuse his whole life and was never given the chance to heal

i never watched arcane cos of the transmisogynistic joke in like episode 1 is it any good after that
There's a transmisogynistic joke in there? Damn that stinks. Anywho, I'd say Arcane is pretty good all around. It's really quite fun and has excellent animation and style as well as an interesting story with fun and dynamic characters. Personally I'm going on a bit of a hater arc unfortunately due to me not really being too pleased with the second season, but overall I think it's worth your time.
#Rewatching episode one to see where that joke is and just..ghhhhg godd I love this show a lot#God Powder makes me SICK AUGHHAHAHGHG#SHE'S JUST A KIIIDDDD#God she's adorable and so cute and sweet and precious and auaghahhgghhh wailing crying screaming#I think a lot about this intro fight and how brutal and gritty it feels#It's not fantastical it's just a buncha kids beating the shit out of each other#All while Powder's scared and doesn't know what to do#Now to mention how her inventions level up in complexity and danger from a mouse to a monkey to a shark by the end#Ah there we are#Is the joke where one of the characters outside of the sex shop bar whatever it is a person in a dress who's muscular and such#Truth be told yeah it does fit the unfortunate “trans woman who's extremely man-like” stereotype that stinks#But yeah no I don't recall Arcane being overtly bigoted in that way#IIRC only really the goblin character next to them shows up again#ask#anon

dante forgot to add one more circle of hell for people who make up clickbait about a firefly reboot I KEEP FUCKING SEEING THESE ARTICLES and I just sit there like. who in their right mind would go "let's make firefly 2"
#i guess serenity is sort of firefly 2 but whatever you get my point#like idc. just bc the mouse supposedly has the rights that doesn't mean they'll do it#also so much of it would not fly (no pun intended). hell there's stuff that didn't fly in 2005 thats still in it#like every time i rewatch it i don't understand how people can like mal so much when he's such an asshat to inara every five minutes#and yet the parts where hes likeable im like aw fuck i dont want to like this guy#for instance every time i see the bit in e1 where book doesnt get the 'joke' and mal just goes “sHeS a wHoRe” i die on the inside#i dont understand how people ship them did we watch the same show#i guess the idea is maybe “oh hes jealous shes not sleeping with *him* instead and thats why he acts like that” but thats not cute#thats just gross#this isnt even the biggest issue likely but its the one that makes me wanna scream

+ bonus:
I’m sure you wanted to kill him. I’m glad you held back.
[ID: 9 gifs of yoo ji-tae as choi kang-woo and woo do-hwan as kim min-joon in “mad dog”. 3 scenes are interwoven, one of them in black & white and framing the gifset in the beginning, middle, and at the end. in it kang-woo tells his friend park moo-shin: “i was dying to kill him. i wanted to kill him. but min-joon suddenly called my name, saying: ‘mr. choi, let’s stop this.’ and when he said that, i saw mi-sook’s and joo-won’s face on his face.” the two remaining scenes are in full color, showing examples of min-joon stopping kang-woo: in the first one, min-joon holds kang-woo’s fist, the latter turning to him angrily and shouting: “let go, you punk!” but min-joon only looks at him with soulful, pleading eyes, telling him to “stop”. kang-woo looks back at him, stunned, face twitching as the words finally get through to him. in the second one, kang-woo is about to strangle someone to death, but min-joon shouts through the gap of a door locked by a chain: “don’t kill him! don’t! you can’t become a murderer!” kang-woo seems to snap out of it then, letting go of his unconscious victim. /end ID]

You're All I Think About
Yandere! Mark x Reader
synopsis: Mark becomes obsessed with you, stalking your social media, learning your routines and slowly inserting himself in your life.
Mark first sees you in the crowded halls between switching classes, laughing with your friends, completely unaware of the way his eyes linger on you.
He doesn't even realize he's staring until William nudges him, “Dude, what are you looking at?” Mark blinks, snapping out of it. He nods towards you, “Who’s that?”
William barely glances up from his phone. “Oh, that's [Your Name], Why?” Mark doesn't answer. He just nods his head, already storing your name in his head. Already obsessed.
That night he's at his desk, fingers hovering over the keyboard before typing your name into instagram's search bar. He could just ask around, but that feels.. weird. Right? No harm in a little social media check.
His heart skips a beat when your profile pops up instantly, and it's not private? He exhales, a small smirk tugging at his lips. Perfect.
Click
He scrolls through your posts. Every highlight, pausing at ones with your friends. Photo after photo, mix of group shots, selfies, random snaps of your day to day life. You at a cafe, sipping an iced coffee. You in a library, holding up a novel with a playful pout. How cute
Resisting the urge to double tap. What would you think if you saw his name in your notifications? Would you even notice him?
Click click click
His breathing is steady, but his heart is pounding. Watching the videos you've posted. The way you laugh at something off camera. He pressed replay, rewatching it over and over.
Fingers tightening around the mouse as your voice fills his ears. He moves to your tagged posts. Scanning through the names, the faces, and the places you visit frequently. He memorizes it all, where you eat, who you hang out with, and what classes you take.
Maybe he should go to that cafe more often, not because of you, obviously. He just needs a new study spot. Yeah. That's why.
He needs to know more.
And he will.
It started with bumping into you at the cafe, the one you always visit after class, acting surprised. “Oh Hey! [Your Name], right?”. You stare at him confused. Before nodding, “Yeah?”
He smiles, “We have a mutual friend! Williams, he talks about you sometimes.” which is a lie, he doesn't mention the fact that William barely does.
That he’s the one who pried for information, piecing together bits of your life like a puzzle.
From here on out, it's easy.
Running into you on campus, sitting across from you in the library when he sees you studying. Making up excuses to talk to you.
You don't think twice when he starts showing up in place you go to or like when he causally brings up books he saw in your posts.
And when he finally gets your number?
He stares at the screen, thumb hovering over your contact name.
You have no idea how long he's wanted this.
How long he's waited.
Mark doesn't just stop, figuring out your schedule and friends was just the start. He starts controlling it.
It began subtly. That one guy who always sits next to you in class? He suddenly transferred classes. That annoying girl who always flirts with you? Stops showing up entirely.
Mark doesn't mind getting getting his heads dirty if it means keeping you safe.

Heya sorry for bothering I noticed you don't have tfp predaking Have you thought about writing him ? 🙃🤔

I’ve had several requests for him, but needed to rewatch some of Prime since it’s been a bit. I always forget how lovely his, Shockwave’s, and Megatron’s voices are. 18+ 🌶️

Rewind
Predaking x Reader
• Banking so the edge of a wing slices through a cloud, feeling cold condensation slicking him, Predaking begins to climb higher. Massive wings working before he’s hanging high above the world. Alone. Tucking his wings close, he drops. Trying to outrun that lonely ache that had come with learning he’s the only Predacon. That his entire kind had been wiped away. Just gone. It doesn’t seem possible. There are ghost memories when he shutters his optics. Of skies full of his kind. Of young Predacons wobbling into the air under the watchful attention of their carriers and sires. Hurting to think he’ll never see that again, never have a chance to watch his own younglings learn, to teach them.
• Dipping your hands into the water, the lake around you is still and quiet, the sun overhead baking you. Making you lazy as your kayak drifts aimlessly and you flick cool water on your skin. And a shadow falls across you. Head tipping up, you tip your sunglasses up and fumble for the paddle draped across your lap, dropping it into water as your heart races. What is that? No time to get clear as it slams into the water and you’re capsized, dragged under in its wake.
• Turning in the water, feeling that melancholy ache sink deeper into his spark even as fury about his helplessness to fix this simmers inside him, his jaws part seeing the tiny, limp shape floating in the water with him. One of the insignificant natives of this world slowly sinking along with him, hair floating as bubbles stream from their parted lips. Alone like he is. And he’s not sure what makes him reach out a claw, curling his talons around that insubstantial form as he uses his wings and tail to cut through the water. Breaking the surface and carrying your limp form with him. Dead? No, he can sense a faint, barely there biofield. Dropping to the sandy shore, he deposits you on the ground. Not sure why he’d bothered to pull you from the water. You’re nothing to him. Prey.
• Jerking, choking, you roll and retch water, body shuddering before just slumping there cheek in the sand. Mind a confused muddle as you keep coughing. Something had fallen close to your kayak. You’d had an impression of size and gleaming metal. A plane crash? Feel so weak as you lift your head, rolling onto your back and see the huge yellow optic starting balefully at you. The rest of the monster registering as it makes a rumbling noise and mandibles splay open, its jaws parting to show sharp denta.
• Staring at you as you stare right back, he vents when you claw to your feet and run away from him without a sound. Straight back into the water. Amused, he dips his tail in and fishes you out to drop you back onto the sand and has to immediately cage you under his claws to keep you from crawling back toward the water. And little hands push at his servos, before you go still, eyes closed when he leans closer to study you. Playing dead? He’s seen things such as you before. A few of the Decepticons keep your kind as pets, though he doesn’t understand the fascination. Venting in your scent, he slowly lifts his claws. Waiting.
• Fingers digging into the sandy beach, you lunge away from that nightmare monster on all fours only for that massive claw to come down and knock you flat again. Like a bored cat toying with a mouse while it decides if it wants to eat it or just play with it until it dies. Which, with how fast your heart is beating and that you can’t seem to get enough air might not take that long for the latter. Freezing you hear nightmare fuel hiss softly, the end of its tail thumping on the ground as its wings tuck closer to its body.
• Chuckling softly as his claw lifts and you glance up at him with wide eyes. You have to know you can’t escape, but you still immediately scramble away and this time he lets you get a bit further, before snaring you and dragging you back to drop on the sand in front of him. Determined little thing. Tail thumping and twitching restlessly, he waits for you to run again. Amusing himself with you. Distracting himself from the pain. A king with no people to look after and protect.

I'm rewatching Death Note, on literally the second episode now, and Light gives his whole speech about how people will be all politically correct and say "oh, I want a trial, I want rehabilitation" but what they actually desire is for the bad guys to go away, whether that means life in prison or execution.
And I guess I'd have to watch the entire series again, but I don't remember there ever being a rejoinder to that, aside from L saying that this is a childish notion of justice. There's no viewpoint character arguing in favor of rehabilitation or clemency, no criminal killed whose guilt is questioned ...
On the one hand, this is sort of not what the show is about, it's more about the cat-and-mouse game. But on the other hand, it's raised in the opening episodes, baldly stated by the main character, and then never really put on trial.
So I kind of like that, artistically speaking, because the unanswered claim is more interesting to talk about than if the show had tried to discuss it, but it does raise an eyebrow for me, and make me wonder if this is just the author projecting their own desires and beliefs onto Light, perhaps with an understanding that this impulse toward punishment and execution is a dark one.
Anyway, can't wait for the goth chick to show up.

After rewatching the first episode, I really took note of Rio's behavior this time around and what it could imply.
To me, it didn't seem like they were playing their typical cat and mouse game. When Rio found Agatha and attacked her in Westview she seemed pissed. She was reveling in Agatha's suffering in a way she hasn't done at any other point in the show. You could say it's excitement given how long it'd been since they last saw each other, but I'd argue that while yes her attitude is because Agatha's been away, I don't think it was just excitement Rio was feeling. I think it was anger.
Agatha used the Darkhold to cloak her presence for years. Considering she's the most infamous witch in their world (with the most powerful coven wanting her dead), it makes sense why she'd do it, but the Darkhold also hid her from Rio. I think their reunion was a mix of Rio being excited, and absolutely furious at Agatha for leaving her without a trace (I guess it's like their version of ghosting someone). Agatha was in tears at one point during their fight, and Rio didn't so much as flinch. She said she would lead the Salem Seven right to Agatha's location, and I think a part of her still held that soft spot cause Agatha groveling for mercy did get Rio to stop kicking her ass, but she still really wanted Agatha dead and, more importantly, hurt. And when Rio told Agatha she did have a heart, that it beats specifically for Agatha, I didn't read it as flirty but rather defensive. And maybe even a little longing.
Rio might not know why Agatha decided to obscure her presence for so long until she literally didn't have a choice anymore (meaning she could've intended to cloak herself indefinitely). And if the reason was because Agatha didn't want to be seen by anyone ever again? Didn't want to be seen by Rio specifically? I can imagine that in all the fighting and hatred during their reunion, there may have also been quite a bit of heartbreak.
#this could be nonsense but what am I if not a nonsensical over analyzer#agatha all along#agatha all along spoilers#agatha all along analysis#agatha harkness#rio vidal#agathario#marvel#mcu#marvel cinematic universe#fyi i haven't seen the newest episode so if this all got addressed and i look stupid i'll go fling myself in a river or something idk

Guess who's backkkkkkk :3
(holding foolish out like a scruffed cat) is now a bad time to bring him up?
(lmao I'm so sorry for that. But on a real note, I've been rewatching his horror game plays, and I was wondering if I could request a foolish/reader with a reader who's big into horror bc he gets so scared it's kinda hilarious lmao 😅)
hiiii!! I've been waiting for you I could feel you coming lmaoo ; but yeah sure, I can definitely try! ; thanks for requesting, hope you enjoy!! ; sorry this is so short I just didn't have any ideas :(( ; also happy new years!!! first post of 2025 omg
FOOLISH GAMERS ; horror freak
summary ; playing horror games is awesome w bro
warnings ; language
word count ; 150
masterlist

playing horror games with him is so fun
you share one player and when he gets too scared, you take over
when there's jumpscares, he usually jumps back and hides his face in his hands for a moment
sometimes he needs to set the headphones on the table too
and then other times he just pauses the game to stare at you, pleading to just quit at that point
"go through that door-"
"I'm gonna get jumpscared aren't i?"
"no..."
"oh my god, please no. you're doing this" he speaks as he passes the mouse to you
you chuckle, walking to the door and holding e to interact
*insert jumpscare*
"AGH!"
"LMAO"
"you should play xyz"
"is it a horror game?"
"...yeah"
"I'm gonna have nightmares for weeks if I play that. isn't that the one you showed me that that other streamer played?"
"Uh huh"
"Yeah I'll pass"
"fuck"

Discussing Hide and Seek Pilot Tapes
So the Hide and Seek Pilot tapes are apparently canon too. So let's discuss. Note: I know I probably already mentioned some of these points in a previous post but I'm bringing it all up again.
First off I think "pilot" implies that these came first, before anything else. So that's where I'm gonna assume they take place in the timeline.
So here's what I notice in the first tape:
youtube
First off, Amanda and Wooly are still clearly friends at this point. Amanda and Wooly were still best friends at this point. "Right now I'm playing with my best friend Wooly." She says in a way that does not feel forced at all, like she means it.
When looking for Wooly, she says the box is a "good hiding spot" which is foreshadowing that it was supposed to be her hiding spot. More on that later.
I gotta say the art style of the storyboards after Wooly is found is ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE AND MY FAV BY FAR. It's so cute!
Just look at them! Look at their little faces! I just wanna hug them!
When Wooly starts talking the song "I'm An Animal, and I Ta-" from the game's original soundtrack starts playing. It kind of feels like it was meant to be a leitmotif for Wooly. I noticed it mainly because it's one of my favorite compositions on the soundtrack heh heh... is it just me or is it a little messed up that they chose the song from when Wooly turns into a literal sheep to be his leitmotif? Is that symbolic in any way or am I just reaching? Either way I think it's pretty funny!
I didn't really understand in the music video why Wooly kept asking for it to be his turn only to get really scared when he actually got it. Now that I've rewatched the pilot tapes... I think I have a better idea about it. It's because that's the script and Wooly likes to stay on script. But that clearly doesn't mean he LIKES the script.
Also, while the scene where Wooly asks "what comes after one?" is pretty funny I also find it a bit weird. Like, does Wooly actually not know how to count? Like he could just be sticking to the script but far as I recall from being a little kid myself once (I know, shocking). Usually they'd simply ask the viewer to count with them, I don't recall any characters legitimately NOT knowing what comes after one. Like sometimes they'd say something like: "Can you help me count all these rubber duckies?" or something but I don't think I'd ever seen a show where the character simply doesn't know how to count. And I also had to watch a LOT of these type of shows with my younger siblings and cousins growing up (Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is permanently SEARED into my brain thank the universe for Bluey).
So like genuine question... does Wooly actually straight up not know how to count? He even sounds really unsure the entire time he's counting like... it's just a possibility but like does he really not know? Because that would genuinely be really interesting.
Wooly calls the tree a really good hiding spot, you know cuz it's HIS hiding spot. Side note: It's really neat to see them having so much fun with this in the first tape. Like they are genuinely having a blast.
Moving on, Wooly got REALLY startled when Amanda jumped out at him. Can I make it a new headcanon that he startles easily? (TBF that's the same reaction I have whenever people try to startle me. I'm not scared, just really caught off-guard).
But what happens next is really interesting because Wooly points out that Amanda went off script and he's unsure how to feel about that. He seems really confused. It made me wonder if Wooly likes staying on script because that way you always know what's going to happen and how to react to it. Amanda was out here going off script and changing the episodes for her own amusement from the very start. Wooly also seems a lot more okay with going off script a little "as long as your having fun." but he doesn't seem to like it still.
Amanda and Wooly playing and messing around with each other as they run off screen is just so sweet! I wonder what happened to Grandma?? One of the biggest things I wonder is if this particular pilot happens before or after they get trapped. Like are they recording these lines in a recording booth? Or are they already trapped and haven't gotten their memories/awareness back yet? I think it might be option 2 just because Amanda was able to go off-script and Wooly seemed genuinely confused about it.
Anyway onto part 2!

Right off the bat Amanda seems confused and unsure about this episode.
Also I find it interesting how she hears out name and says: "Oh really I think we've met before" before getting cut off. This is yet another example of what seems to be the shows built-in censor system for when Amanda goes off-script. When she says "box" the tape glitches and says something else. It sounds like she says "tree" again. I wonder why? When the mouse clicks on the box Amanda seems uneasy. Could this be foreshadowing for Mr. Fox's death? Or does she already know he's not going to be there. Now whenever she says: "This is a good hiding spot" I think of the music video and I think Yeah, to hide a body Amanda?
Wooly still doesn't know how to count... Wooly's part isn't really different but when he says that she's not behind the tree there's this weird intense glowing from the left side of the screen. Wonder if that means something?
The only difference is now when he lifts the box he says: "You're not Amanda." Like... really Wooly I didn't notice a difference? <- sarcasm/joking.
Amanda's eye twitches when Wooly says he hopes he'll see us again soon. Then she says: "Let's play tag next time." which is obvious foreshadowing for her both not wanting to play any more hide and seek and wanting to play tag so badly. They also don't run off playing together in this ending... odd.
Anyway that's all the stuff I noticed! Hope you enjoy the post!
