angel: I thought we told you not to bring any backup

Cas: I didn't

angel: then who's that behind you?

Cas: oh him? He's not backup. He's like a trophy boyfriend. I bring him along on dangerous negotiations so he can see how awesome I am

Dean: *waves*

@nyaskitten tumblr ate your fucking ask uhh ignore how this is months later BUT i finally watched dr s2 AND

[lol-lmk]

I keep thinking about MK laughing and going about life as usual like nothing bad ever happened. Because everyone else wants to pretend nothing bad happened.

Then one night he shows up on Macaque's doorstep asking if they can talk.

"there's just not really, anyone to talk to about this? But I figured, you'd understand? More than anyone? I, you know how I died right? Just for a bit? It, it hurt a lot and I still have nightmares but that's not the problem! The problem is... it was kind of.... nice. There are times that I think, I think I miss it? And I know that's an awful thing to feel and everyone was so upset and-and all the people I'd leave behind and I'd never ever leave them behind. I wouldn't ever ask Pigsy to mourn me a third time. But, it was so, quiet. Peaceful. And for the first time in-in a long time, it didn't hurt. Do you ever feel that way-?"

And then Macaque hugs him and admits that no he doesn't, but it's fine that MK does. That he does deserve a break. That he'll step up temporarily and put aside grievances with Wukong and protect the planet for a while so MK can get some rest.

I gotta take a moment to thank all the spop anti blogs and their runners

Y’all created a safe haven for all of us to criticize SPOP, to vent about our feelings about the show and I am very grateful.

Additionally a lot of the points made in posts helped me writing my own critique video. Would you like if I mention you guys in the end card or a pinned YT comment?

Okay, so I’m nearing the end of S5 in my latest AOS rewatch, and I saw a few tiktoks, and I just wanna sorta rant for a second.

I may be a massive Daisy stan above literally all else, wbk she’s my best girl… but I believe that Yo-Yo was in the right to kill Ruby Hale. Period.

Firstly, I know revenge isn’t the SHIELD way, I get that, but at the very same time there is so much hypocrisy there surrounding other team members (eg. Coulson had his revenge on Ward, Jemma ALSO tried to get revenge on Ward but failed, Hunter as well, even May was intent on it, etc) so why shouldn’t Yo-Yo also get to have her revenge? Ruby left her disabled for life (and did it on purpose + showed no resentment + would do it again, might I ADD, by literally repeatedly threatening Fitzsimmons with the very same thing). Yo-Yo deserved vengeance, in some way.

I understand Daisy’s motive in wanting to save Ruby, to bring her on as a SHIELD agent and try to give her a new purpose, the same way she was/had- but this never could have happened. SHE CUT YO-YO’S ARMS OFF- DISABLING HER. Allowing her to become a SHIELD agent after this fact would be just as bad as welcoming Ward back onto the team with open arms after what he did to Fitz- which left him with a permanent disability in return too (in a different way but obv similar to Yo-Yo nonetheless). Both Ruby and Ward were HYDRA. Both significantly hurt a team member on PURPOSE. It’s the same deal. Bringing her onto the team would’ve been wrong.

Finally, Daisy claimed Ruby was “coming around” just before Yo-Yo killed her. Daisy, ilysm, but girl. 😭 Ruby literally tried to kill Daisy moments earlier, as well as throw inanimate objects (and Fitzsimmons…) around the room with her mind. She killed Werner by accident (which shows the serious lack of control she had- and how dangerous she was in that moment), not to mention she was refusing to be reasoned with (and couldn’t be). She was completely out of control and it wasn’t going to get better (look at what happened to Creel after he merely touched the Gravitonium- he never improved).

In a way, Yo-Yo did her a favour by killing her. Even if another solution came along in time, Yo-Yo, as the others would regularly say, MADE THE HARD CALL. She did what was best in that moment. Not to mention, Yo-Yo also thought that by killing her, she saved the world. Although this proved false, at the time she thought she was doing the right thing to save all of literal humanity. As I said, in the end, she made the hard call.

Not to mention, Yo-Yo admitted that she’s not proud of what she did. It’s not like she enjoyed killing her. Yet, so many people make her out to be some monster. I hate it.

In conclusion, I’m on Yo-Yo’s side with that whole thing (and hate seeing people- and the team themselves- giving her absolute hell for it). However I truly flip-flop between all the characters during S5 and their many arguments. MAN, that season is always a tough watch for so, so many reasons. It’s good, but painful.

(P.S. I’m convinced most of the people who stan Ruby are just Dove Cameron fans. Which I have nothing against. You do you. 11 year old me was her biggest fan frfr. But other than that, I don’t see why people like her character so much tbh. But alas.)

DAY 31: YOU WERE ALMOST A BANGER

[sandrune-art]

the lgbt+ comunity wins! your favourite silly vampires organized a pride parade

I wasn't ready for my wwdits obsession to come back so hard with these last season. There's only 3 eps out, but I wasn't expecting a fucking pride parade and I love how they are handling Guillermo becoming a vampire or not so far and aaa I love them so much.

And I want to draw these idiots so bad, so I made some gifs as references, use them as you please!!!

HAHAHHA what people don’t say about autism is that you have to be careful what media you consume cuz if you get a new hyperfixation on something you won’t be able to function for days (for context I made the mistake of watching Lego monkie kid and now I CAN’T FOCUS ON MY PROJECT THATS DUE TOMORROWWW)

Rewatching the northwest mansion mystery episode and I can’t get over the beginning

Dipper defeating a monster in the paper? Pacifica coming to his house to ask for help?

It just makes me think of those episodic girl detective book series from the 90s that had like over 100 books and five different authors that were beat to shit in the library

tua s4 spoilers

having a crisis bc even though i HATE how we got to the end result, I don't hate the ending anymore?

like emotionally? do i wish more than anything that it was canon that everyone got to move on with their lives happily and heal from the trauma they've gone through? ofc absolutely

but all of it being a time loop of them trying to fix the apocalypse that they caused, over and over again, and even when they thought they reset everything to save the world for good, we see the marigolds. they persevere through everything no matter the cost but they sacrifice themselves for the good of the world but they persevere anyway because they can't do anything except try to live

maybe i just need to go to bed but conceptually i think it's quite beautiful

I've seen some salt around interviews with the writers post season 5, mostly about Adrien not being present in the final battle and how that was planned from early on. I on the other hand, am happy about Marinette facing Gabriel alone as Bug Noire.

First, the writers say that Gabriel's wish has a trick to it, we don't know exactly what he wished for, and the aftermath of the world being destroyed and recreated is a major story point later on. So my first point is that it's NOT over. Adrien has not yet been robbed of a satisfying conclusion to his character arc. This arc is over, the show is not.

Second, Marinette is the protagonist. The teenage girl is the protagonist of this rom-com superhero show. Adrien is a main character, but he is not THE main character. He is a compelling character in his own right and is incredibly important to the story, and it's ok that he is the supporting character to Marinette. The whole point is that the girl is the hero of the story. She gets to be the knight in shining armor. She gets to have the badass moments and the op skills. I'm not saying the ML writing is without its flaws, or is even that good overall, but I am saying that as the main character of the show, Marinette having a climatic battle with the main villain is a good thing. So many animated shows get cancelled early or never made at all because their audiences are or would be mostly female, and some marketing analyst decided that women and girls don't buy enough merch.

On the other hand, I get the argument that yeah, girl power is great and all, but wouldn't equality be better than "Hey look, the girl is the hero this time." Well, yeah, it would be. However, the story told thus far is where the girl is main character and she's the leader and she's always one step ahead and she makes the complicated plans and she also plays a central role in said plans. And she's a teenage girl so she's messy and emotional and impulsive and stupid (affectionate). Maybe the story will change with time. After all, Marinette won in a way, but she also failed. She allowed Gabriel to make his wish, the ONE thing she was supposed to avoid at all costs. The effects of the wish are not gone. Maybe it can never be fully resolved until Ladybug and Chat Noir work together as partners, and that's the whole point. Or maybe not, and Marinette gets to be the focus of her own show, and that's ok too.
