Silver doesn't need another father. He's already got one of those, technically, but the man turned out to be a weak, cowardly bastard who couldn't face his own problems let alone raise a child. The way he sees it, there's no need to set himself for more disappointment. He's got a roof over his head and food to eat, and that's far more than he could ever depend on in the last... however many years he'd been living on the streets. Lance and Clair are annoying as hell, but while he's training in the Dragon Den, he doesn't exactly have much room to complain. Not out loud, anyways.

Lance doesn't particularly want to be a dad either. He's already got too much responsibility on his plate as Champion, and this kid clearly needs so much more emotional support than he feels like he can provide. Simply convincing him to move into his guest room was enough of a struggle, and it only really worked because Lance had promised Silver he could "earn" his keep. What the hell is up with that, anyways? He's not sure what Silver's past looks like, and he's not about to go prying, but the bare minimum he can do is make sure he doesn't have to rough it out in the woods anymore. At least Clair seems to be having fun training him...

Clair is more than ready to be an aunt. The other two refuse to admit to caring for each other, but unlike them, she's not afraid of something as stupid as her emotions. The brat's slowly but surely been mellowing out during his training, and her idiot cousin has actually been taking care of himself for once in order to be a "good example." Silver has even caught on to calling Lance "old man" like she does, on account of those ugly-ass reading glasses the all-mighty Champion has to wear, and she couldn't be prouder. Best part is, she doesn't have to spend a dime except to treat the kid every so often! That's a win in her book if ever there was one.

#pokemon #pokemon hgss #hgss #rival silver #champion lance #gym leader clair #warning! lots of rambling in the tags >_>#love me some Father Figure Lance(TM) but the way i characterize him and silver doesn’t completely allow for it #they end up caring about each other deeply but as mentioned neither of them would feel comfortable labeling their dynamic as father/son #doesn't mean lance can't be silver's “old man” and silver can't be lance's “kid”#clair meanwhile is just delighted to have someone else to beat up on /affectionate. she's a big fan of tough love #she understands silver's not looking for a family and accepts it just fine but she's still going to adopt him in her head #the three of them are family now. he can't escape. he's going to be welcomed and taken care of So Help Her Arceus.#part of her likes to spoil silver in a way she never really got as a child #(though that doesn't mean she's ever going to go easy on him during training. if anything it makes her push him that much harder)#(this definitely doesn't make silver think she hates him or anything until lance explains she's Just Kinda Like That)#(she's actually much nicer to silver than most people---she's extremely assertive and has a very strong sense of justice)#(which makes her seem a bit bitchy to others at times (and they wouldn't necessarily be wrong))#((this is making me realize i need to just write a breakdown of my characterization for her tbh))#meanwhile lance tries to give him more freedom and space to breathe since that's what he always lacked growing up #he's still going to be there if silver ever asks but he also recognizes that trying to get too close too quickly will just scare him off #anyways #*vibrating in place with the intensity of a million suns* i am so normal about them. i love them a perfectly acceptable amount.

they really weren't kidding about the rom-com vibes in this season.

#*carly catalogs #bridgerton #bridgerton s3 #no offense but they've said that in the past two previous seasons and sorry i did not get any rom-com vibes from s1 or s2 #but then again it took me a little while longer to get into this show cause i'm not gonna lie i hated s1 #idk how to explain it but something about both simon and daphne's characters book and show really pissed me off for some reason??#like... i don't like them at AAALLLLL #and i found their love story to be the least bit romantic (out of the 8)#and initially i wasn't gonna watch s2 cause of how much i didn't like s1 but the beautiful gifmakers on here got me #i enjoyed s2 sooooo much more #but THIS???!!!!!!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!#THIS #THIS IS SOME OF THE MOST HEART MELTING ROMANTIC SHIT I HAVE EVER!!!! SEEN!!!!!!!#it especially felt like one when....#cressida was explaining to lord debling that colin and pen have been friends since the featherington's moved across the street from them #oh wow would you look at how much i rambled 😳#but i can't help it that friends to lovers is MY bread and butter #colin bridgerton #penelope featherington #polin #otp: you are special to me

i cannot emphasize enough how much my entire academic situation is currently hinging on receiving an email from one (1) person

#quil's unholy underworld #i emailed her a couple weeks ago but like. that was summer so i wasn't surprised to have no response #but i would've expected to hear from her in the past week. since the class is a special situation. and that's what she's done in the past #and now i'm like. please. the class on the schedule starts TOMORROW #i need to know if that is correct. OR. if like the other semester. this one starts a week late #AND if it's actually t tr or if it should me m/w in the system #which THEN impacts this OTHER thing that is really crucial #if it's for sure t/tr #i need to fill out a form explaining why i still can't take this other required class #which is marking me in the system as 'failing to make academic progress'#literally one class one credit hour.#that i have been unable to take purely because of these classes #and I need to petition them to be like hey. i'm actually do a whole shit load of stuff this ONE class is an outlier #but if it's m/w. then I need to resign up for that class. and drop another one #and then i WON'T have to petition #SO PLEASE FUCKING EMAIL ME ALREADY

jasico server was chatting about the cupid scene and jason getting nico's memories blasted straight into his brain and how jason being shot with one of cupid's arrows while with nico and this was just never brought up in canon again and now i'm thinking like...what if that's just how cupid's arrows work? not by magically manifesting love for someone out of nothing, but by giving someone the perspective that'd make them fall in love naturally? jason gets a front row seat to nico's memories and instantly understands him intimately and can trust him completely without any doubt or suspicion

so what if jason, after slowly realizing he's totally in love with nico, just thought back to the arrow incident and it made him second-guess everything? because maybe he's only feeling this way because cupid hit him with an arrow with only nico was around and it's no different than any other god messing with his love life

#i live for anything that drags out the pining/pre-relationship period as long as possible okay #give me the drama of jason frustrated about constantly being manipulated by gods #in love with nico but convinced it's just cupid fucking with him and not wanting nico to get dragged into it #maybe telling nico eventually because he's having trouble hiding his feelings and he doesn't wanna hurt nico by confusing him #which is of course an emotional rollercoaster for nico #hearing jason say he's in love with him only to then immediately hear that it's just godly fuckery #nico agreeing to help jason find cupid to get it reversed because he knows how much it sucks having feelings for someone unwillingly #and he doesn't want jason stuck mooning over someone like him just because he was unkucky enough to be with nico for the cupid incident #whole quest in which nico develops feelings in return and angsts because he's sure jason only feels that way because of the arrow #maybe a slip-up in the middle somewhere with nico accidentally revealing he likes jason back before backpedaling wildly #so now jason has hope despite himself because he'd never really thought it was possible anyway given nico's feelings for percy #and he doesn't like being manipulated by gods but he doesn't mind the idea of being in love with nico #and what if he just gave up on the hunt for cupid entirely and let it happen #while nico feels guilty since clearly it's just cupid arrow magic fucking with jason and he's enabling it #and then of course when they finally find cupid he explains how his arrows work and that he can't just FORCE someone to be in love #no more than hera could with jason and piper by fucking with their memories to push them together #cupid's methods are just way more effective #my tag babble ended up longer than the actual post oh my god #pjo #jasico #my dumb headcanons

Someone should make an analysis of Amphibia's geography for fanfic writing purposes and by someone I mean Oh god please let there be something out there so I won't be tempted to procastinate on studying for my finals working on a detailed world map for a fantasy Disney show about talking frogs and polyamorous lesbian divorce when the writers themselves probably didn't think much about it beyond what would be funny in each individual episode

#so there's a train running through frog valley right?? but there are only like 5 settlements in frog valley #those being wartwood bog bottom lily paddington swamp shiro and the southern toad tower #but we never see any train stations going through neither wartwood nor toad tower #which means the train must connect at least two of the other settlements. why would wartwood be excluded? is the railroad still #under construction? why create such a huge piece of infraestructure for such a scarcely populated region connecting only three towns?#because we know for a fact that train doesn't connect frog valley to Newtopia or the rest of the continent #otherwise Anne and the Plantars would have traveled via train which would have been safer and faster #plus if the only way in and out of the valley is inhabilitated during several months a year it would explain the absence of said connection #since it would be really hard to maintain #maybe there ARE other ways out of frog valley but that road would mean going AROUND the mountains? rather than through them?#which could be more dangerous AND take longer than waiting for the ice to melt away in the most commonly used passage #the train could take advantage of that by going through those other passes #but it wouldn't explain why Anne had to wait for like 3 months to leave #the only explanation I can come up with is that the railroad system is incomplete #either because it's still under construction or because important parts of it have fallen out of use due to lack of maintenance #resulting in short and tiny tracks you can't take to go fucking anywhere #you know. like in my country!#my posts #amphibia

like why did they change where Vegeta was when Cell announced the cell games in the anime

why did they make this vegeta starting shit with yamcha instead of chillin in the lab with his family? why did they take Bulma out of the lab? Why'd they say she was Out while Dr Brief was repairing 16? Why did they change Bulma working on advanced robotics to running in late with her baby?

it's the same scene except: - Bulma's actively at work being a scientist - Vegeta's not being rude to her (or anyone else!) - Vegeta waits for Trunks instead of leaving the room - Cell interrupted the airwaves, which means Trunks and Vegeta were just hanging out with Bulma and Dr B while they were working

Those are all Great Character Details!! That the anime rails against!!

#these cowards afraid of showing Vegeta actively choosing to be around his wife and child even when he's Bad #Because Goku who is Good never ever even once makes that choice onscreen outside of filler #and then they justify that choice by making Chi-Chi seem horrid and unreasonable for (checks notes) Not Wanting Her Child to Die #anyway I am once again being bitter about anime vs manga klasjdklasd #I can't believe I let the anime convince me I hated Goku man Goku's SUCH a good and ridiculous character in the manga #the anime just SUCKS at letting him be who he's always been #and has to reframe and recontextualize and reword everything he does so that it seems like he's Actually Quite Mature and Thoughtful nO #THAT's VEGETA YOU COWARDS #also the fact that bulma said she wouldn't live with him at the beginning of this arc to him casually hanging out with her and trunks #after cell beat his ass and humbled him is REALLY GOOD SUBTEXT for their shared relationship having improved without showing it #it's great subtext for all three of them and toei just went 'nah' and decided to make it a whole group shot so ...? Master Roshi could sit #and explain how ??? Tournaments Work??? Just so Cell could log on and also explain how tournaments work?? God it's been so long #since I've watched the anime and now when I do it just makes me mad aklsdjskja the manga is SOOOOO much better #there are some spots where the pacing is more ideal in the anime like goku turning ssj for the first time but like man. everything else is.#like why are you making Goku snarky with Vegeta dude his clapbacks are SO much funnier when they're just Tactless Honesty #like Vegeta's not insulted by Snark bitch he grew up in the Freeza force that man was raised by THE bitchiest drag queens #Vegeta's insulted by someone saying something deeply and insultingly True to his face as if it's the fucking weather #Goku in the anime is like 'a battle of wits hoho' but Goku's purity is part of the joke he's not snippy he's just got no social etiquette #He's just honest! He's not trying to be insulting. That's what MAKES it insulting! That's the WHOLE GAG of why Vegeta can't stand him #Goku is always just telling the truth and it's always the rudest shit Vegeta's ever heard in his life #'it's a sunny day! i'm way stronger than you! see you out there bud!' 10000% Genuinely Friendly. Golden Retriever-Ass Pure.#Infuriating. Hilarious.#anyway I looked at anime clips to make sure I remembered things right and that was a mistake #as someone who has a soft spot for it and grew up on it -- compared to the manga it's bad and it's always been bad #and toriyama was right to be disinterested in watching it jesus christ they BUTCHERED his work #anyway this has been another shot of haterade with sketches thank you for scrolling my rambletags askljdask #dbtag #i just truly can't get over how they make Vegeta call her 'woman' in the anime and he literally only ever calls her Bulma in the manga #except for on namek when he refers to her as 'the/that woman' because she is a complete stranger #why is he calling her woman like he's a 1940s american husband and not an extraterrestrial from a deeply advanced society toei

So, I've been a bit open about my mental health on here since it affects how I experience and interact with judaism, but I'm wondering how you all balance it? I've found that antisemitism does not specifically cause the recent episode/s I have been having, but it makes them worse, and I find that it makes it even harder to engage with judaism, so I'm currently in a Sisyphean spiral. I guess for me, my brain has been so high-alert about this stuff that it completely shuts down, but not engaging with my jewish community is just as detrimental to my health as antisemitism is. Plus, I'm just angry at the thought that something like antisemitism would prevent me from being with my community.

#jumblr #jewish politics #antisemitism tw #personal thoughts tag #i'm going to shabbos services tomorrow since i miss my community so much #i am very protective over my community. i've reached papa bear levels of being protective about them. so it does hurt when i can't be there #bonus points to those of you with bipolar/PTSD/schizophrenia/anything i might be missing #just because i find those to be underrepresented in general. and also because it might help me out personally.....#to be clear i don't mind if anyone with any condition (or perhaps even none) contribute respectfully! this isn't an Exclusive Conversation #i don't even know how i am going to explain to them why i missed so much. i feel so behind right now #i emailed my rabbi so hopefully we can schedule a meetup and i can pour my soul out about it haha #it sucks talking about this but i really don't have mentally ill jews to talk to offline (as far as i know)#but i am open with my offline community about my issues so i don't think this will surprise them #i'm trying to work through my toxic masculinity surrounding shame about how my mental health presents so i'm pushing myself to be more open #though i will say that if someone is reading this and thinks they can trigger psychosis or whatever: it's not going to work like that

One thing I really wish the FF Community would Stop doing is Removing All Nuance from the Parents in Those Stories in order to Make Them Abusive Supervillains who Never Loved their Kid.

Like... In the Four Years I've been here, and for how Small the Community really is, you'd be surprised how many Times I've seen it-

#The Most Prominent (and Worst) Example I can Give is with Alec’s Mother #Like... Yeah- She listens to Fucking Books and is a Karen basically- She's not a Good Mother #But making her into an Abusive Mother who Never Loved Alec and just wants to Control Him?? I think we read the Wrong Book Guys-#That Removes alot of the Tragedy in Lonely Freddy- The Fact that Things could've Gotten Better if they just Talked #But they can't anymore since Alec is Trapped in a Dumpster...#There's also plenty of More Examples I can Give #Devon's Mother isn’t Abusive or Homophobic- She’s a Struggling Woman who was Abused herself (Devon’s Father threw things at her)#Which in turn from that Struggle- Has made her Neglectful of Him #I can't really say much for Pete's Mom since I forgot alot of Step Closer- but making her a Comical Abusive Mother probably isn’t accurate.#I even once saw Oswald's Dad get Villainized and Like... We definitely must've read the wrong story cause the worst thing I remember him #doing is getting upset at Oswald for going Into the Pit #It's usually always the Mothers who get Villainized tho- Like... If we're going to look at their Kids with Nuance and-#- believe they could get better if their stories didn't end with Tragedy #Why can't we do the same for their Parents??#Also if you REALLY want like... an Abusive Parent to Hate- Greg's Dad is right There.#Angel's Step Dad is Pretty Abusive too from what I heard (I never read the Story)#I'm just saying- There’s no need to villainize the Parents with Actual Nuance to Comical Degrees #fazbear frights #<- Tagging it because it's something I've really grown tired of...#Oh Yeah in Case I wasn't Clear #I don't think the Ones I mentioned above are good Parents necessarily (Besides maybe Oswald's Dad)#I just Don't like when people make every single one of them Super Mega Abusive cause that like... Kinda removes the fact that you can be a-#- Bad Parent WITHOUT being Abusive or Hating their Kids?? Like... You're kinda removing alot of Gray and making things very Black and White #Ok sorry for Writing an Essay in the Tags- I just had alot to Explain

I fucking hate being traumatized because why am I bawling the hardest I've bawled in god-knows-how-long because someone I didn't even like that much berated Me. gasping wailing trembling and snotting over this for several minutes.

#personal #sanism #abuse mention #child abuse mention #I'm still not entirely done crying really. I'm just trying to stop and calm Myself. not doing well at the moment #because someone on the discord server mentioned trump's inauguration and I basically said 'I don't like trump either #but it's still important to keep pushing for change. who's in office doesn't change that' and he just. immediately escalated the situation #accused Me of not caring about oppression. I explained Myself further but he told Me to go fuck Myself and capped it off with #'you already admitted to being a fucking narcissist so why would i want to be around you' (exact quote BTW)#and I just can't stop sobbing. I don't know if I've cried this much since I was 13. I keep having to pause My typing because I start crying #I didn't hate him but I wasn't attached to him either. it's just that I have so much fucking trauma along these lines #so many instances of My mom putting words in My mouth. getting short-tempered with Me over benign remarks that I didn't understand #because I'm autistic. dismissing My opinions. making Me hide My feelings and issues from her #because she's made it clear that she doesn't trust people like Me #it's made Me have so much trouble handling even friendly social interaction. I've only just learned how to do that #I just can't handle having that same mistreatment forced onto Me by anyone else. especially with so little warning or build-up #and what makes Me break down even worse is the fact that I know I'll have to deal with him again #he wasn't even punished while this was happening. despite the server owner and other mod being online. the owner just said 'stressful day'#and the other mod started talking with a regular user about how it was uncalled for once he had already left the conversation #nobody even checked in on Me. even though I stayed online for a good half-an-hour afterwards. I only just logged off a few minutes ago #because the notifications from unrelated conversations started overstimulating Me #regardless. I don't even want to see him again. I don't want to be in the same server as him I don't want to talk to him I don't want to #but it's not a real formal server. it's a 'friend group.' and they've shown before that they prioritize keeping the peace #over actually punishing hostility. just a week or so ago I told them I wasn't comfortable with them using the R-slur #and someone freaked out over My complaint being 'politically correct' and left. he was brought back just a few days later. and before that #he had already derailed a previous discussion I tried to have about the word by sending gifs featuring it and redirecting the conversation #that sucked but at least it wasn't outright triggering. but I just can't stand the thought of having to be around someone #who treated Me so much like how My abuser has. that's the most I've ever had to relive My trauma because of someone else #that's the most anyone has ever mirrored it to Me. I just can't stand it but I know I'll have to be around him #I don't even know if he's gonna apologize. he's made it clear how little he thinks of Me as a human being. PLUS

I know I essentially never had a proper painting teacher in college, despite multiple painting classes, and therefore actually have no idea how to use oils correctly, but every time I see an oil painting by someone who does know how the oil paints work, I'm like holy shit

#fun fact I'm not actually very good at any type of painting I just enjoy the activity #don't have space to paint in my house though so sometimes I get a wild longing to paint and I can't #also I haven't gone through the dreaded cupboard of old art supplies to clean it out and organize it since college #but anyhow paints never clicked for me but I love them a lot and I'll never touch oils again but I have mad respect for painters #and esp. oil painters #my ''intro to painting class'' was taught by a guy who was one semester away from retirement and let us get away with everything but murder #the next teacher who tried to rectify my class's lack of oil painting knowledge failed to explain it in a way that made any sense #(I was also lowkey scared of her bc I knew she was on the thesis panel and could fail me and I embodied every bit of art she seemed to hate #somehow she ended up liking me well-enough but I did not have the heart to ask her to explain herself better either)#really need to get back into experimental painting someday...#oracle of lore

Girl.... what do you mean ending.... only a few lines ago you just said you're only eleven years old :')

#trails in the sky #trails in the sky sc spoilers #trails in the sky sc #renne hayworth #renne trails #(yes i know her real last name but. since this is a screenshot from sky and her last name is technically a spoiler for a later game #i know basically every game after sky spoils it and even promotional material doesn't hide it but. basic principle #so i will be yapping a bit in the tags before i put it)#anyway. man. i forgot that renne does actually give her backstory to estelle here #she doesn't outright explain the 'paradise' part but she shares just enough to give an inkling of what horrors she's suffered #and even though estelle doesn't fully Get It (by her own admission)#she does understand that whatever renne went through is something that no child should ever suffer #and it really works with the rest of estelle's arc which is about just. learning more about the world #and instead of shying away from the Horrors she faces them head on #honestly if there's one thing I've really honed in on my replay its estelle's self awareness #she knows she's a sheltered country girl but she can't turn a blind eye to all the darkness #even if she can't quite understand all of it she knows that she has people around her who will help her fight it #trails series #kiseki series #trails #trails spoilers #okay last warning for spoilers in the tags. i deeply apologize if this doesn't work #renne bright #autumnal rambles #anyway. all this to say that renne would be on the ohtori student council #though she does break out of her coffin.... eventually #also. i hit post without realizing. that well. it's a minor daybreak spoiler but iykyk. did not realize it at the time of posting

#I really like the “We're the bad guys' enemy” line. For someone I generally despise Dazai has all my favourite lines in this show…#Idk I can't really vibe with the unbalance that there is between s/kk.#Like when push comes to shove‚ Dazai has the power to keep Chuuya alive or let him die.#I understand why they make a compelling dynamic in their complexity‚ but it just doesn't do it for me.#I'm a little sad my opinion on them hasn't really changed since I watched the anime for the first time...#Also; I really can't vibe with Chuuya allowing Dazai to kill Q. Yes I know Chuuya cares about his comrades deeply.#Yes I know it can be interpreted as Chuuya seeing himself in Q as a living weapon and being disgusted by it #(though I honestly don't think that was intentional of the author).#Yes I know Chuuya is a mafioso and kills people. No I don't think your personal issues justify you being a dick to other people I'm sorry.#Back to my main annoyance with the episode: I must have already talked about this but I hate hate hate the narrative #“the mafia works for the city” “the mafia deeply loves the city too” it's so so sickening and insulting please stop I'm begging.#Please visit any actual city with a rooted mafia presence for once in your life (signed: someone whose hometown was destroyed by the mafia.#The writers really don't know what they're talking about and‚ politely‚ it's offensive.)#Also b/sd keeping being extremely nationalist with Mori (who's largely depicted unsimphatetically for the first part of the episode)–#bringing up western thinkers and subtly mocking Fukuzawa for not knowing them–#and Fukuzawa (the righteous man. the noble spirit and just soul in this episode and Mori's antithesis)–#stepping forward to say that he knows strategists from the east (because who else would he need?)#I don't know if it's meant to symbolize the conflict with an hostile and invading foreign power (the Guild).#But it does come across as. A very isolationist way of thinking.#I know it's subtle but it's really evident for me. And I didn't want to talk about this any further…#But by bringing actual examples of this I hope I can better explain why I think that b/sd holds nationalist views–#and that I'm not just making it up out of nowhere. Otherwise I fear I'd only come off as pettily hostile to b/sd in everything #That's it. I feel like I've been losing a lot of mutuals over my main recently due to not shutting up (sorry)#so I suppose it's only fair I lose them on here too pffttt.#Tune in next week for more bad takes #random rambles
