Peaceful Property's trailer just dropped (THANK GOD!), and I am here once again asking
If not a BL, why the color exchange?!
Home is red. Peach is blue(green, so turquoise really)
And Peach's sister is pink.
(Kan is neutral)
So why is Home wearing blue if he isn't in love with Peach?!
And why is Kan wearing red?!
I will be perfectly fine if there is no romance in this show, but all I'm screaming is the colors mean things!
And if the BL streets were correct that Force and Book were going to be a cameo based solely on arms appearing in a photo in March,
Then I'm just going to sit here in my truth knowing that red + blue
equals purple.
#peaceful property#are they color coded boys in love?#the trailer says no#but it's canon to me#the colors mean things#so I know the truth in my soul#I'm ready!#I've waited a lifetime!#well just a couple of months but it felt like eternity

I love talking to rabbis as a recent conversion student because the interaction goes something like, "you're converting? Now?! At this time, at this moment in history?!". And they always talk about this influx of jewish convert students they've seen recently, and it's like...
There's this level of respect I get from rabbis for converting at this point in time, but... Has there ever been a good time to be a jew in the last thousand years or so plus? I'm imagining that rabbis and jews in general back in 1492, back in 1290, back in 1349 would have said the exact same thing. So, really, there is only a time to be a jew. Maybe it's not a "good" time, yes, but it is a time. And to me, that's good enough
#jumblr#jew by choice#jewish conversion#personal thoughts tag#and to me i *know* that being a jew has historically Not Been a Good Time. i don't ask that of my conversion#i would convert if i had to run one day. in fact i count on that as a possibility#that's why i like simple judaica. if i have to run away with my people it'll be easier with simple bare-boned judaica#i would convert even in the middle of a desert. in the middle of exhile. on threat of pain and death#because to me being a jew isn't about it being a 'good time.' it's about being true and honest about what i need to be#if i were born this same way a thousand years ago i would make this decision again#where you rest; i will rest. where you pray; i will pray. when you weep; i shall weep. and where you die; i will die#i can only speak for myself but i've seen other students with a similar mindset#so in truth it's not the timing that motivated me. it's deeper. it can't be intellectualized. it is a primal feeling - something soul-deep

the patrician is just a guy to me
#havelock vetinari#discworld#doodles#before you ask why just know this#i actively avoid looking at any discworld art book covers included#i specifically buy those hardcovers with graphic design on the front#so any kind of a visual context doesnt exist for me except what my brain sees when im with the guy in the room as i read#so anyway Lord Vetinari is like an old suit and tie guy to me#he is proper arguably a minimalist calm collected and always two steps ahead#he is pushing 50#doesnt even have to be fifty but I know this in my soul: to be like him you have to have seen life for many decades#his monologue at the end of GG is driving me craaayyyyzayyy#a man that wakes up and does a thing not for fulfilment but because. because its like one of the world truths or some shit#part of me would love to put him in a fancier suit but in men at arms he literally sits on a wooden chair next to the throne#hello?#in his little (huge) garden with his little (huge) stacks of paperwork#and he has a shitty terrier#what a guy#this granpapi is my chewtoy

Not that I don’t love when Bruce’s kids outperform him and give him heart attacks, but I think it’s funnier when the kids think they are better fighters/spies/infiltrators/etc. then him but he’s just so proud so he lets them think that they are.
I think that Babs would be a really good hacker, the best in the family, but Tim, who thinks that he is the next best(and is still scarily good) has no idea that Bruce only let him think that he broke his record of hacking into secret organizations.
Dick is amazing at acrobatics, and centers his fighting style around it much more. He even won gold in the Olympics for gymnastics! Bruce doesn’t want to tell him that he trained under several gymnasts, contortionists, even ballerinas!!! and has the acrobatic fighting style mastered, so he (within reason) let’s his kid win on most occasions, he doesn’t need to fake loosing on trapeze though(I am still giving the kids SOME things they are better at…)
Cass knows that nobody can lie to her, she can spot everyone’s tells and knows most people better then they know themselves. Bruce is, however, extremely paranoid and also has a kryptonian he works with regularly. He lies so well that he can convince himself he’s telling the truth(which is literally the point in case of advanced lie detectors), and so what if he lets some of his tells be more obvious around his baby, he’s so proud of her for picking up such small things! And while Bruce is AMAZING at reading people, he can’t beat Cass, it is however much closer matched then the others think.
Let’s be honest, Bruce is banned from the kitchen and isn’t good at cooking… or so everyone thinks. While he’s not as good as Alfred or even Jason he could whip up something Gordon Ramsey would be proud of if he actually tried to.
Damian in the best fighter with swords, this is undisputed. Bruce just hopes none of his kids find his crate of custom katanas in the attic, if they do then he’ll say they are for Damian.
Tim is an amazing investigator, so good in fact, that Bruce has trusted him on his hardest cases. Everyone assumes this is because Tim is a better detective then Bruce, but he just loves seeing how proud his kid gets when he gets a breakthrough.
Batman doesn’t kill, Red hood does, everyone in their right minds knows that’s a lie. Before Robin came along, leaders of drug operations or terrorists would disappear into the night, never to be seen again. The only people who don’t seem to know this are the Bats children themselves. Sometimes you can still hear a cut off scream in the dark before the news announces a missing person that everyone just knew was doing something horrible, criminals are more wary on nights that the Bats brood are in. And people running trafficking rings pray that it’s the Hood when a knock sounds, the bat doesn’t give those people the mercy of death.
All of the bat kids know more languages then Bruce, and they keep learning more to throw him off, for a family of detectives they really should have thought about the fact that Bruce traveled the entire world, he knows ancient languages and the words that world in other galaxies use, if he could speak Martian then he would have learned it by now, he still does know that part that he’s able to learn.
Idk I just need more of Bruce being skilled at SO many things while his kids are like “oh yeah Bruce? He’s good but I could defeat him easily” and Bruce just so proud of his babies when they do ANYTHING.
Bonus:
Tim made a plan to neutralize Superman at some point, it wasn’t as good as Bruce’s but he replaced it so fast. When he later uses it to take down mind controlled or something Supes Red Robin is watching.
Nobody notices that Batman whispers something to Superman before he goes deathly pale and acts like the plan is working so well he immediately gets defeated. As for what Batman said to him? It was basically ‘Clark(they aren’t supposed to know identities here btw) my kid made this plan and I swear to every mortal and immortal force that if you don’t take the fall right now you will regret it for the rest of your life” and Batman was usually scary but this was like, God will cower before him terrifying and it scared evil Superman so much he went along with it.
Res Robin was smiling so brightly that later Clark honestly couldn’t be mad at the Bat.
Edit: I forgot to add this but unbeknownst to EVERYONE (including Alfred somehow) Bruce can and will stay awake longer then Tim and his drinks are somehow worse in terms of caffeination. The difference is that on the fourteenth day with no sleep everyone thinks it’s only been three even though he is Vividly hallucinating. The ability to hide his lack of sleep for the first week and a half leads them to believe he’s actually the worst at staying up since on what they think is his fourth day of no sleep (it’s his seventeenth) he’s talking to an apparently very vivid hallucination of Alfred the Cat in a suit and a Tiger named Tawny(he had met the tiger earlier that week) and having a civilized conversation with them
#Batman#Bruce Wayne is a good father#Good dad Bruce Wayne#Good dad Batman#It’s like how baby animals will ‘defeat’ their parents in play fights#Or how when a toddler says ‘boo’ when you walk around the corner you act like they almost sent your soul out of your body#I’ll give the bat kids prompts for being really good at stuff#But Bruce spent like ten years of his life in rigorous around the world training#He ended up in jail at some point#Also yes I did imply that the Bat tortured traffickers#Why did Hood not know this#Writhing five seconds of his return Bruce realized it was a very angy Jason and went#I’ll let him take his time and sort this out :D#I’m such a good father :DDD#No Alfred doesn’t know#He does know there’s SOMETHING up but isn’t sure what#Jason kills a child trafficker and though Bruce scolds him the entire time he’s going#Awww my babies first trafficker takedown I’m so proud of him#Cass can tell he’s not telling the full truth and it drives her up a wall trying to figure out why she can’t tell what he’s hiding#Batfam#Batfamily#Red Robin was all “here Bruce I tried to make a plan for if Superman goes evil but it’s not as good as yours :(((“#And Bruce immediately goes “This one is much better good job”#He gives him a pat on the head#and is sobbing inside#dc#Dad Bruce Wayne#Dad Batman#My rambles#Jewels’ Random Thoughts

do you guys ever just think about tsuna and want to cry your eyes out and never stop? asking for a friend
#katekyo hitman reborn#khr#khr text post#sawada tsunayoshi#this is about a tumblr post i've only written and posted in my head#tsuna's just so#tsuna's just /so/#i CAN finish this sentence btw it's the thing#because tsuna wears his heart on his sleeve and the shape of his soul is always reflected in his eyes#because the essence of tsuna's very being is always laid bare for the whole world to see and grasp and do with it as its see fit#and still he'll always continue to keep it within reach. always /so/ caringly and kindly and lovingly and mercifully within reach#it makes you want to fall on your knees and worship him#it makes you want to fall on your knees and weep#it makes you want to fall on your knees and throw up#it makes you want to fall on your knees and love him love him /love him/-#you will never deserve him (he's /so/ very grateful for the love you have for him)#you will be worthy of him if it's the last thing you do (he will tear the world apart before ever allowing it to touch even a hair out of#you)#TSUNA'S JUST SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#the love he has? the love he /gives/? the love that's given to him? the love that's given /back/ to him?#loving tsuna will not hurt you (this is a lie)#tsuna's love will not hurt you (you couldn't care less even if it does)#loving tsuna will not save him (you will sooner tear the world apart than ever surrendering to this truth)#BANGING AND SCRATCHING AT THE WALLS DO YOU GUYS GET IT#you know what maybe i WILL cry my eyes out about this and never stop 😭😭😭😭😭😭

there's this... idea/concept that keeps swirling around in my head of rook going down lethally injured in combat. and spite and lucanis as one voice going 'no. nope. nah. quite simply nuh-uh' but like on a level that reverberates through the real world and the fade because of their soul Situation, so when they wrap rook up in wings and arms and cradle them against them to just -- hold rook's soul in place in their body until emmrich can arrive with the emergency spirit healing of all time to anchor them safely back in the world of the living without the need for spite life support... it actually somehow works, and they're safe and awake and still breathing against lucanis' chest by the end of it all.
it's definitely a one-time trick lucanis has no fucking clue how he even pulled off afterwards, once the 'I can see the weave of the world' flow state has faded, and no one has any good explanation for how it could even be possible, outside of the fact that no spirit and person have ever been so completely and cleanly unified to one purpose before lol. but with rook still walking about safe and sound and already cracking bad jokes, i don't think anyone would particularly care
#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#lucanis dellamorte#rook x lucanis#rookanis#oc: Ellaryen Ingellvar#I keep imagining rye's eyes sliding open during that and him gazing up at lucanis like 'I'd know and love you in every world.#this is my oath to you. I hold this truth holy. even if I slip away from this place my heart will call to yours we'll find each other again#death is nothing; my soul belongs with you and no force could ever sever that.#and also I realize that you probably won't care right now but ohhh this is so *interesting* the theoretical implications#are frankly astounding. maker look at me I'm going to actually have to write a *paper* like emmrich is always hounding me about'#and lucanis in full scary glowy demon mode softly both laughing and crying and brushing his lips to rye's forehead like#'you can tell me all about the theoretical implications later' as he keeps holding him. just the two of them nestled so close together#resting their foreheads together and. breathing. and not letting go. don't. don't look at me please don't perceive me in this moment

men are so disappointing in so many ways i know i shouldn't expect most of them to be dignified humans but it's crazy. i need to get over this guy he's making my sense of self crumble even faster than it usually does. like he's just so unlike my usual type and i'm pretty convinced he's stupid and slutty and not discerning whatsoever. not to mention boring like i know even if i did have a chance with him he wouldn't Get Me at all so it's a bigger waste of time that usual and i'm actually pretty tired of men in general and definitely tired of parasocial relationships because they drive me insane for months typically. thankfully it's only been like 2 weeks if that at this point. idk. sigh. i know literally virtually nothing abt him as a person and ofc liking any public figure who you know nothing about is only setting yourself for heartbreak and disappointment to begin with bc you already know nothing is gonna come from it but. in a way it's almost addictive to become obsessed with someone and not be looked at with the same level of scrutiny. i don't think anyone in real life would ever try to get to know me as much as i try to get to know people who i'll never even meet. lmao! but that's the thing... idk... i have a lot of love in my heart and it consumes me and i reject my pride usually when i'm into someone. i want to know more... like VORACIOUSLY consuming anything with information about them involved simply because i think knowing someone is a very deep form of love but of course you can never truly know anyone. not completely. and that scares me i think which is why it's always probably been easier for me to never really TRY to be with anyone or have anything real. idk. this turned into me psychoanalyzing myself real quick but SOMEONE needs to bc i need to understand what the fuck is wrong w me.
#like i'm not gonna lie and say i do this every time i'm even vaguely interested in someone. most of the time i'm just like 'ooo hottie'#and then save a bunch of pics before either the shame gets to me or i just stop caring and move on. happens quite a bit more than my#obsessive episodes. the worst one was absolutely the fact that i was obsessed with jeremy for basically 3 years and spent two hating him#simply because i thought i was owed anything. honestly i think i was just very very insanely depressed. that's probably why those#obsessive periods even happen to begin with because i have felt so so horrible like soul ripped out horrible the past few weeks lmao#and i think i'm just a grasp for any light in the dark type person like it doesn't even necessarily mean anything the person is just someon#i attach significance to them when i do this shit but i know deep down that i'm owed nothing and that i truly expect nothing#it's just nice to have a distraction from my life. and dgmw that doesn't make me any less schizo about certain details and happenings#like i'll still think that 'oh they're only doing that because i'm into them' or 'they only went here because it was related to something i#was thinking about earlier' and whatever else. i know what i am. i don't claim to be anything else. and i know it puts people off.#and that i'm not likely to get any better if i keep doing it. if it's even possible for me to get better. but idk. it's interesting bc i've#thought more about what my life means to me and the kind of person i am and how my brain works and how everything affects me#more in the past few weeks than i seem to have in the last 5 years. i think i'm really getting better at accepting hard truths.#time spent by yourself is still time spent with the world.... and the more i think... even if it's hurtful... i'm growing and changing all#the time. i don't think if this was 4 years ago i would've even acknowledged the fact that i can't write off on This Guy's zionism#and other things about him that give me the ick (hate that phrase but whtevr) like him playing that gay hogwarts game and being a nepo baby#like bro you have trans friends and supposedly always 'look out for the small guy'. he's also never dated a fat girl despite his mom being#kind of a trailblazer for fat women in the entertainment industry. there's always rumors of him dating literally ever costar he's ever#worked with i guess simply because he seems like that kind of guy. and to be fair he does LMAO#honestly i don't know if i believe he's a bad person but i won't sign off on a guy i like being boring and stupid. that's just me#i'm sure ppl reading this who also don't Get Me are wondering why any of this even matters and the point is that it kind of doesn't lmao#but it's my life and i typically choose to care about people who will never even know i exist. unpopular girl instinct i suppose. maybe i'm#destined to be unloved or something but for now i wear fantasies like a blanket. maybe one day i won't need them anymore. but i def#do not need to center my romantic ideals on a guy i would be embarrassed to tell people i'm dating if i were actually dating him. rough#now just give me a month to get over it and finish the 2nd season of a show i like that he's in and i'll be rid of it hopefully. we'll see

"This is not your— your fault..."
"I told you, I'm Robin. The Robin that murdered you and became the fell dragon, Grima."
"Promise me you'll escape from this place..."
"Please, return to the Table! It's too dangerous!"
Not only did Chrom's dying wishes not come true, the exact opposite did. Robin blames themself for everything to the point of embracing it, and the site where their heart was shattered becomes their only shelter.
#it's weeping over grima hours again#it's just... the way this is exactly what chrom DIDN'T want for them...#and i'm thinking about some of brave chrom's lines in feh...#“in truth i know that prayer alone cannot prevail against power. but my heart tells me something else.”#"people's wishes. their pleas for help... they are never in vain. i will believe that for as long as i live.”#and the fe universe does appear to suggest a connection between like... magic. wishes. the soul. strength of will. quintessence.#SO SURELY CHROM'S DYING WORDS HAVE TO HAVE SOME POWER#it's not enough for another world's fate to change... i need grima to know peace#i want to believe that the grimas who die get summoned to askr. they have to. they have to know freedom because chrom wants that for them#ughhhh i'm actually literally crying all over my laptop because of this#grima studies#fe13

a while ago i was talking with @titkos--sideblog about how i was hoping the conflict between lune and white wouldn't be about lune dating star but rather about how lune kept lying to white about it. and i had in mind those two separate times where white actively asks about lune's feelings for star only to be told straight to his face that lune doesn't like her/doesn't have feelings for anyone
and now with white and ivy's blossoming romance from last episode i'm even more sure that the conflict really is going to be about white and lune's friendship. that it's not gonna be about "how could you date star!!" but rather about "how could you betray my kindness like that??"
because if white is now starting to have feelings for ivy then to him it shouldn't really matter anymore if star is in a relationship with someone else. what does matter though is that his friend(s) have been continuously lying to him when he's been nothing but honest with them and has been so caring and welcoming with lune. and to find out that his friend did not pay back the same respect is gonna hurt like hell. and i for one am here for it
#from the preview we know that in today's ep white's gonna find out that star is in a relationship#i wanna see the truth finally come out#but i'm not sure i'm emotionally ready yet#my soul is already hurting for my boy white :((((#airenyah plappert#summer night#summer night the series#whitelune#adrm#smn spec#white has the personality of the type of boys/men that i tend to get a long with best#so i feel the very strong need to protect him at all costs 🥺🥺🥺🥺

I think half of this fandom got wife-beamed by Shen Yuan, any comments on this tumblr user Shizunitis?
i acknowledge no such events, myself. i don’t need some narrative device or convenient trope or genre convention or whatever to fall in love with shizun. i’m sure there are people out there whose affections needed some prompting or a helping had to get going, but. like. couldn’t be me.
it’s not about the wife beam. it’s not even about what i want from shizun, or in what light i see him, or what he’s done for me, or any of that. it’s the very core of him, the tangle of contradictions and avoidant, endearing paths he takes in his navigation of the world around him, how he clings to it and the people around while adamantly claiming he isn’t.
he fucks up, and he’s snarky, and he’s a bit out of pocket at times, and that’s the most endearing part of him. the acting and the self-reprobations and his own wisdom, which he always overlooks or bats away, and the fumbling and the way every one of his action betrays just how easily his mask can crumble the more he’s made to fight for what he cares for, and how at the end of the day between his own pride and the love guiding his every action, it’s always the pride that he discards first.
also, he’s got a case of rejection sensitivity that would, and does, put both binghe’s and mine to shame.
a wife beam is, in itself, a… filter? i’m not sure how to put it, but a wife beam is too… inauthentic. as the reader hitching a ride in shizun’s brain (which thinking about makes me feel faint and like i’m about to burst with joy and entirely not normal about the whole thing) it’s kind of… impossible, i wanna say, to be fooled by its effects in any meaningful way.
it’s like putting on glasses just a bit different from your own prescription (guess who’s sleep deprived and doesn’t know how to put words together again. you get no prize and you have to feel sorry for me)—the shapes are there, but the exact definition of what you see is not right. the “wife beam” is not doing justice to shizun’s true self.
shizun is shizun. shen yuan or shen yuan as shen qingqiu, whichever, it’s the core of him that matters, and the wife beam makes him seem too… ideal. too untouchable. it’s like cling film. bothersome and unhelpful outside very specific circumstances and we all know shizun doesn’t belong in the kitchen. where he belongs is for me to think about while laying on the floor at 10am on a friday.
or, put in another, more obnoxious way:
this here is a naturally occuring phenomenon; every binghe loves every shizun, and i’m not about to betray the cause or turn away from my nature.
rate this for coherence i give it a solid 6.5 right now. i did a great job, considering.
#shen qingqiu#shizun#considering what? you may ask#considering the yearning#this is me being a pick me but extremely serious about it#like im not even joking or laughing or being silly#i’ve left the jester’s hat back home and i come to court bearing only my soul my heart and my sleepiness#shizun is. god i love him dearly and with so much of me. eve ry day i miss him#there is something i always fuck up trying to convey or articulate or whatever the fucking word is#about how endearing he is and how he uses acting and the very concept of the self so. loosely isnt the word#he stretches it also isn’t right. it’s a real fucking bother gang to be so full of ideas and lack the proper vocabulary to put them#together properly#anyway. wife beam is insulting to me#im truthful and honest in my love for shizun being like. the most natural thing#im fucking with the concept of wife beam and i know what it means i just dislike it sometimes AND think its funny to play that straight#and you agree#.q

ok the thing about the implication that everything is interconnected (the elven gods are connected to the tevinter old gods/archdemons and also are possibly what humans interpreted as the maker and also they were underground so it’s probably going to be some BiG rEvEaL that they’re behind the dwarves’ connection to lyrium/the stone) is that it just makes the world feel incredibly small. all these different cultures have different mythologies, except it turns out it’s the same. that sucks imo
#most of this is connected to my eternal frustration that fantasy tends to treat religion like a science#a quest to find the objective truth of the world and prove someone was Right and everyone else is Wrong#for example personally i don’t like the hc that andraste was one of mythal’s hosts or an old god soul#i like the debate of whether or not she was a mage as an in-universe schism bc it says a lot about the countries involved#but i don’t think it’s productive outside of canon#idk i think preserving mystery keeps things interesting and it sucks that like#it seems like answering one question causes a chain reaction to neatly tie up every other loose end across the continent#like that’s not how the real world works. there’s plenty of conflicting folklore and TONS of shit where we don’t know how it works#for me the fun is in exploring. not in finding a concrete answer#worldbuilding isn’t about just ‘who can create an interesting and complex lore puzzle’#idk i am ready to be proven wrong but i don’t think i will be#also feel like a little with reappearing characters. i know i just said i want to see merrill but in my defense. varric is still here#there is a connection so it doesn’t feel like it’s just a coincidence that it’s the same person yk#personal.txt

see the thing with the daemon au is that sure, kdj as a person could be a weasel or a meerkat. thats noble and true. but the very representation of his SOUL needs to make him deeply embarrassed and ashamed. like it has to be small and cute and common and childish and he has to find it humiliating. you understand.
#daemon au is literally kdjs worst nightmare what if the PHYSICAL MANIFESTATION of your SOUL was just OUT for EVERYBODY TO SEE.#nobody cares. why have i been thinking about this for ten hours.#ultimately i am taking singshongs comments into consideration but they are not My Truth. why are the authors acting like they know so much.
