I love it when the Losers make Richie to keep watch for Beverly's dad when she shows them the bathroom.
That kid has ADHD and doesn't know how to shut the fuck up, let alone wait patiently.
You just know he was out there kicking rocks and spinning in circles while probably either talking to himself or acting out some sort of scene with the different accents/voices he does.
I laugh just thinking of it
#and its very richie of him#hed be great at distractions though#so it was smart of them to choose him#richie tozier#it 2017#losers club

HC they first met a year or two after Yelan got her vision; post fighting the in abyss but when Kaeya was still navigating his identity from Kaeya, Brother and Right hand of Diluc Ragnvindr to Kaeya Alberich, Cavalry Captain and Quarter master of the Knights of Favonius.
#We know Kaeya's a bit of a sadist and does leave his men in the dark most of the time#Back when he he'd been newly appointed i feel he'd be quite reckless as to how much 'pushing' his knights could handle on missions#used to working from diluc's shadow rather than being the one to direct commands#And Yelan after her experience in the Abyss chooses to work alone and secrectively so that the lives of her comrades won't be in danger#She sees that Kaeya operates very much like her but he does not have the luxury to work as 'freely' as she does when it comes to official#missions for there are still people working under him#(ofc both of them do whatever they want when it comes to going of abyss side quests)#There's no way she doesn't feel some sort of kinship they're really similar in many aspects#she does not want to see a repeat of her certain mistakes#Yelan is also questioning how the actual fuck do the knights operate because why is a 16yr old beefing with her to get to a mafia boss firs#They come to 'good terms' as time passes where they have mutual respect for each other#both of them try their best to outwit each other form time to time of course#Kaeya being petty(er) and Yelan being 'i need to set this guy straight'#But back then after seeing Kaeya work missions for the first time Yelan's thinking that this kid is too smart for his good#additional hcs for Back In That Day#Yelan: -still hasn't gotten her signature bob. -often uses a crutch because Abyss did a number on her and her pre existing chronic illness#Kaeya- has a fuckass mullet#yeah.. my apolocheese for the ramble#genshin impact#genshin impact fanart#kaeya#kaeya alberich#yelan#yelan genshin impact#kms mention

I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#His aptitude with subterfuge sleight of hand stealth and speed really push how being a ninja really comes naturally to him.#it’s arguable that his desperation for the spotlight and validation is an act of subterfuge against himself#note that when he’s offered a job as a mascot he’s fine being unknown#when he and splinter win the battle nexus Leo immediately says ‘they love YOU pops’#idk I think so much about how good a ninja Leo is#and how much his persona is more an actor#Leo as a tot is shown a natural skill at katana too so hear me out-#every Leo is a natural ninja but every Leo’s route in life is directly tied to their splinter so#since rise splinter is an actor Leo too aims for it#and he brings it into his whole life - masking always because a Leo makes what they do who they are#I think that Leo naturally falls more in line with that of a typical ninja#his eccentric performer self is his subterfuge skill just set to an 11 at all times#not that that’s NOT him - like I said it’s still undoubtedly a part of Leo#but? idk I think about little moments like Leo being the only one to choose stealth in bug busters#or Leo being the only one to almost get Gus’s dog tags in The Ninja Art of Hide and Seek (he was so close but luck was against him alas)#like- he’s clearly in his element there and he falls into those skills so easily#it’s like how everyone has skills in so many things but some exceed more in some than others do#like Raph? Raph’s the biggest Hero of the bunch of them let’s be perfectly real here. Raph is THE Hero#All the boys are smart in their own rights but Donnie is THE Genius.#and they all have mystic powers but Mikey is THE Mystic Warrior with immense untapped potential#likewise Leo I feel is THE Ninja#but yeah I love how much Leo goes for the spotlight anyway for better or for worse#he IS a performer again make no mistake! but again the way he does it still lines up with his natural ninja aptitude and I love it#Leo loving magic tricks and magicians so much works doubly well here because like#you’d think he’s focused solely on the performance flair - no it’s ALSO and ESPECIALLY the DECEPTION

hi i ride motorcycle year round and wanted to chime in. for vasco's small around-town trips he'd probably be fine with his ears free, but for longer trips at higher speeds or when its cold out he'd want them protected. probably by tucking them under his chin into the collar of a jacket and then putting a scarf or bandana on. also goggles would be helpful if a full helmet wasn't wanted. since they're in europe and around italy specifically he could have a nice ducati (fast rockety sport bikes) or a cafe racer (much more like a motorized bicycle but they can still have a lot of power) a cafe racer would offer a lot of seat space for machete to be thoroughly uncomfortable in lol
i love your ocs they're great thanks for all the cool art :)
.
#oh that's really good practical advice actually! I've never riden a motorcycle so I wouldn't even know where to begin#the ears tucked under the jacket collar is a smart way to go about it#having hard time choosing a bike for him there's too many options#it looks like lots of ducatis have a very sleek and sporty vibe to them#loving the bright colors and the shapely design#cafe racers on the other hand come across as iconic looking to me and could potentially have a sort of vintage aura which I personally like#and the flat topline (I'm sorry I don't possess the right vocabulary for these things) that some of them have is visually pleasing#they'd be a nightmare to draw though since the frame is a lot less covered and there's a ton of complex mechanical detail in the midsection#bike viscera if you will#I don't know but it's fun to think about#thank you for chiming in! this was genuinely helpful#answered#anonymous#modern au

what kills me is that asa spent god knows how many hours in the library studying for this date, 100% believing denji would fall for her if she cosplayed a fax printer and spitting to him the twenty pages of information she memorized about starfish when the boy just wanted to see irl happy feet
what kills me even further is the fact denji actually listened to her
and she listened to him to
to be loved is to be seen, man
#and they say romance is dead#denji is so caring and smart and he doesn't get enough credit for that as he should#i know this has been pointed it out one hundred times but honestly my dear? i dont give a damn#he gets inside the aquarium with HER shut the fuck UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP *PULLS HAIR*#DENJI DESERVES SO MUCH MORE AND FUJIMOTO KEEPS MAKING HIM SUFFER I HATE THIS SO MUCH#im rereading this part because the fic im writing is lightly based on this part and it kills me every single time i just love them so much#writing from asa pov because denji seems too complex for my tiny brain to write. and even asa is making it hard too#BUT i will fight the writer's block devil and WIN#the fact fujimoto CAN write romance but actively chooses to make it evil is just insane to me. he's evil.#csm#asaden

Karasu and control
I've been thinking about this for a while, and this part of Hiori's novel (previous reblog) just brought it back to my attention.
Karasu really likes to control things. I'm not saying he's a control freak, of course, but he certainly likes to feel a safe base beneath his feet. You can see this in his play style (when he gathers all the available information and acts only after that; his choice of France) and his fear of water (if I remember correctly, the thing that scares him the most in it is the unknown). AND also from the whole Marisa (his childhood crush) story (assuming it's true lol) - he's not the type to rush into anything: neither in relationships nor hobbies. I don't think he would have chosen to join Blue Lock if he wasn't really sure in his abilities. He's really mature about things like that.
I was thinking in the context of him probably going to university (data analysis please!) in addition to his sports career, since he seems like a really rational guy when it comes to serious stuff? He gives Hiori some great advice about not wasting his time on something he doesn't like, Ego mentions that his greatest skill is his analytical ability - he never acts because-he-just-feels-it, he was the one who argued with the referee in the U-20 game about Rin's injury (so responsible!), and generally acts very logically (except for the whole Hiori and his legs theme lol). I don't think he would be able to fully relate on the sport, he certainly knows about the statistics of failures and broken careers.
He loves football, of course, but he is really right about "people who only play football can't become great players". But that's more because for Karasu, it's unrealistic to be stable (which is sometimes a deciding point in the game) when your whole life depends on it. When everything relies on you winning. Karasu really has a glimpse of Snuffy's philosophy in that, and it's great to see that in the character: Failing at one thing doesn't say anything about you. And you should always be more than one thing to have the right mental balance.
That's what makes him so strong - not that he'll never fail. Of course one day he will.
But rather the knowledge that he has done everything to be stable in case of failure; that any possible failure will not ruin his life.
Because he has made sure that his back is covered.
#was thinking about it a lot for one of my (unwritten) tabiori fics#because I don't believe that Hiori would abandon football (through I'd REALLY would like to see that)#more like he'd be unsure in what to choose till the end of the NEL#and if they'd have been in relationships this uncertainty will really get under Karasu's skin#like would Hiori like to pursue his career or try something new#stay in Japan or leave everything behind and move away#he'd never turn it against Hiori of course but this for sure would have bothered him#idk I just love the way Karasu is so smart talented and overall amazing#but the moment he sees Hiori he becomes just an average weird teen totally into their crush#you know type of men who're like cool-cool and the second their spouse enters room they're dorks staring with the stars in eyes at them#that's Karasu#karasu tabito#blue lock analysis#bllk analysis#blue lock#bllk#tabiori

Some Cyril appreciation featuring his mom:
#fe3h#fe16#few3h#rhea#church of seiros#cyril#nabateans#i'll never understand why people seem to hate Cyril so much#the poor kid lost his parents at a very young age and had to learn how to survive on his own#he had to join the Almyran army only to become a slave of House Goneril#then a woman takes him away offers him food shelter and treats him like family#and would love nothing more for him to find his own path to happiness#and we know that for a fact thanks to his support with Seteth#they only want the best for him#but because of his past circumstances he still chooses to work hard to show how grateful he is to them#and because he's still scared that they might abandon him if he doesn't prove he can useful ig? even tho they won't#instead they let him take his time and find 'himself' and his desires at his own pace (meaning: without putting pressure on him)#so it's no wonder why Cyril loves Rhea and is so loyal to her#and like Cyril's personality is kinda great? he's smart hardworking and his honesty and sass gave us some of the best moments in this game

sam winchester and jon sims. smth about being a groomed+prepared vessel for evil beings since childhood/infancy. smth about growing up with no agency except what you can scrape together with nothing but your own smarts and instincts. smth about that agency never really mattering anyway because the forces that want to use you are too strong to fight against, not when they've had you for so long. smth about never having a choice about the monstrousness that has been forced on you but everyone hates you for it anyway, wants to hurt or kill you for it, even the people who are supposed to be on your side, the ones who would rather you die in human agony than live in a way they can't or won't understand. smth about grasping at your own monstrousness as the only source of power in an incomprehensible world that has literally been rigged against you from the start. smth about doing everything you can to use that monstrousness, all the pain and helplessness you've suffered, to help other people, and it's never enough. it has to be enough but it is never enough. smth about how no one you love will ever look at you with complete trust and faith ever again because you've been tainted for good, and finally you end up agreeing with them, that the best and only right outcome is your death.
#i think about 'these trials are purifying me' and i think about jon giving up two ribs to save someone who terrified him#im connecting the dots. im connecting them.#sam winchester#jon archivist#the 'bitchy smart one to quiet exhausted self-loathing one' pipeline is so real. and i hate it a lot#i mean at least sam got to choose his apocalypse ending in s5. jon didn't even get that dignity. ugh#it always comes back down to agency and the fact that they had almost none#but people hate them for reacting to this deliberate theft of power over their own lives in Unapproved Ways#aka ways that upset or piss off or slightly inconvenience d*an and m*rtin#anyway. i have to sleep#i had another fucking Brain Incident on the way home and i wanted to kms lmao. hopefully sleep helps#and not thinking about the poor little meow meows that i am literally always asking for an actual list of their transgressions#and what i always get is 'had emotions that made other characters feel bad about their actions :('

#maybe the real sub was the cia analyst we met along the way#the hunt for red october#jack ryan#marko ramius#bart mancuso#this scene is so much and it's ramius continuing to be smart but he's also so funny#like. there was plenty of time!! he could have told them about the safety in the torpedo!! but he didn't 🤪#he wanted to see if the americans as a whole trusted him#and he also wanted to see if ryan as an individual trusted him#and this is AGAIN ryan going on his instinct up against mancuso's training#and trusting ramius--who he had met ONCE prior to this#and because ryan chooses to trust him (and saves everyone's lives since they wouldn't have outrun the torpedo)#ramius trusts him in return in the missile bay#AND ALSO from mancuso's pov#we get ryan making again another bonkers decision that paid off but even once the torpedo bounces off the boat#mancuso is still super cautious and doesn't fully trust ramius and his officers (“he won't change his mind huh ryan??” in the shootout)#until he sees ramius' reaction to borodin's death and it's like a flip switched so he hands ramius his gun#ray.gif

When you think about it, Naeceles is like the Savvy Guy, Genki Girl dynamic that looks switched only that it actually plays it straight. Since Makoto is the down to earth guy exasperated with his girlfriend extravagance (but still loves her anyways) while Celeste is the girl who lives in her own fantasy world with her fake name, made up crazy life and chasing an wacky dream who drags her boyfriend around for all her activities.
Ok I know it's not 1:1 with the trope and Celeste is barely Genki but you get my point.
#Danganronpa#Makoto Naegi#Celestia Ludenberg#Taeko Yasuhiro#Naeceles#Trigger Happy Havoc#DR#THH#Honestly Celeste is kinda a whacky person once you think about it#She's not the super smart serious person she thinks herself to be#Though Honestly I think this works in some scenarios#Like I like her FTEs and School Mode with Makoto because while Makoto thinks is silly at the end of the day it's her life#And she chooses how to live it#And he just admires the light on her eyes chasing her dreams that he can't help but follow her and try to achieve them#Meawnhile Celeste is so down bad for Makoto that she wants to be around all the time even if she paints it as him being her servant#Even though it's clear she sees him as something much more than that

i need to reread wof to finally figure out who my absolute favorite character is
#rave ramblees#like particularly from the first arc#I Hate All Of You#except Clay#he's a perfect boi who can do no wrong#but he's not my favoriteee#i always think i like Glory but she kinda sucks actually...she's just a pretty girl#sunny annoys me but she's so based#starflight is the one you'd THINK i'd like but honestly. eh#his character is so absurdly hard to pin down#like he's kind of introduced as an arrogant nerd emoji guy#and then he's more of an anxious wimp#and then he's just like a kind hearted nervous smart guy????#tsunami is just like. that sort of boisterous angry character i don't love#she's violent but she's not even sexy about it 😔 you should enjoy being covered in blood more smh#when it comes to the SECOND ARC THOUGH#it's the opposite problem. i can't choose a favorite because i love them all#except winter who is me fr but i just hate him#everyone shits on moon but i love her she's my everything#KINKAJOU DESERVED HER OWN BOOK#turtle is perfect. PERIL MY BELOVED. qibli is a silly guy#third arc...ehjyutjhfghjskdjf i guess i like cricket#i kinda dislike blue but his book is the best one so it gives me bias to think i like him when i don't#luna and snowfall though? i can't tell if it was because their books sucked but iiiiii don't like em#and sorry to the sundew stans but she's like tsunami to me

i don't particularly mind danny damian twin aus but i'm still surprised that became the norm when danny and tim are so much more alike? like, black hair blue eyes, absent neglectful parents, creepy older men obsessed with them, usually depicted as lankier teens, both of them becoming obsessed with helping/saving people as a result of being neglected, feeling like if they can't help then they're useless, etc.
like danny and damian being twins or siblings isn't Bad but you also have to do so much more work to actually,,, make it work. and i feel like people only like it more because it's angstier and allows them to make danny cooler rather than it makes more sense. but with how many danny fans focus on bad fenton parents or at least neglectful fenton parents, i just thought they would enjoy danny and tim being twins more.
#like again i dont hate danny and damian being twins#but with how much fans have to change both of them to make it work?#like damian actually liking danny and not feeling competitive? thats not true damian wouldve tried to kill him especially if he left first#them having to change danny's race and name and entire face just so they look more alike (even if theyre not identical)#idk i dont hate it but i definitely prefer danny and tim being twins more#like not only do they actually look like each other but they also have similar backstories and even interests!#and like im not saying twins/siblings have to be like each other for them to be twins/siblings#obviously thats not how that works#but also this isnt real life - this is fiction#you can make danny related to Any of the batsibs and people are Choosing the One guy who isnt even the same race aldhg#i feel like the amount of aus where danny is just So Smart and knows the league sucks so he leaves on purpose#also speaks to just how much dp fans do not understand the league or indoctrination/child abuse/cults#sad - anyway danny tim twins au >>>>>#it also makes me laugh when people say its not interesting to them like Babe danny and tim's backstories are Very Similar#at that point youre literally saying danny's Canon backstory isnt interesting ajdhgljd#though i guess thats the point of changing it in the first place#idk man ive just never seen a fandom that hates their canon so much ajkdhgj i have to get used to this i guess

Love your HCs <3!!! And your art!!!!!!!! Le Question: is Romano 99.99999% straight like Veneziano? What's his sexuality journey like? If you don't mind sharing your thoughts. Is it as weird as Veneziano's pre school BF then pussy for a millennium. Thank youu
FIRST) THANK YOUU MANAJW i always feel surprised when i remember it isnt just me and my 3 friends on da world wide web that like my stuff <:') ARIGATO! FROM ME! *points at me* TO YOU! *points at you*
Anyways now SECOND) i think romano knows he likes girls and actually is nice to them and tries to rizz them its just hes cringe fail so i actually think hes a total virgin whos never dated anyone ever bc hes so aids. i think he doesnt really see guys as an option not because of sexuality but more because hes too busy trying to catch a girl he aint even got TIME to think about other fish types we go one type at a time. like when he goes i would never date anyone in the g8 its not because theyre boys its because "theyre stupid and annoying and ugly and should kill themselves and one of them is my fucking brother" romano is a boy kisser its just that never gets addressed because he hates all the men around him too much. i also think he kinda likes the idea of a girl more than actually dating a girl because 1) he doesnt take into account that girls actually can fart (60% why he thinks theyre so angelic and wunderbar) and 2) he desperately wants to be popular asf like italy so hes like ITALY BANGS CHICKS EVERYDAY SO OBVIOUSLY THERES GOTTA BE SOME SECRET SAUCE IN THERE. but i think he never in his life ends up dating a girl because they all reject his ass bc he fumbles so hard and then prussia activates his yandere gene and he gets loyal asf (but still demented and terrible. basically nothing changes other than him no longer hitting on girls) so woooooo I THINK THE LABLE HE USES IS "normal" (he is anything except normal)
*read tags if u wanna see why i changed my mind. actually romano uses da lable
**drumrolllllll**
BISEXUAL! **judge gavel slams down**
SENTENCE: 10 THOUSAND HOT POCKETS!
#me thinks hes too preoccupied scheming and getting restraining orders put against him to really think about a lable#see hetalia characters all have aids like me so i think a handful of them dont really use lables#or if they do then they dont really follow them its more like they use it cuz they need something to say when someone asks them for it#i think theyre smart enough to use lables only as theyre meant to be used. as something that acts as a positive for them#either in makes them feel secure or gives them an answer to tell people when they ask#cuz like for example germany is the Only Boy italy likes and italys like well ill use bisexual cuz why not lol#but i think some other characters could have that same situation and stick with the lable straight#cuz its like saying wether or not you like chips#if you only like one specific flavor and brand and hate everything else then its arguable if you can say you '*like* chips or not#i dont think the way people feel love and attraction is something that can be fit into neat little lables because its always different#so i say lables shouldnt be treated as an end all be all when choosing one. its just whatever you like#after all. having a lable doesnt make you any better or worse than someone with another lable#sorry for the long tangent but yeah thats my explanation for why i dont think romano has a#solid lable#THIS ISNT ME SAYING I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD STAY IN THE CLOSET AND REPRESSED AND SHIT#its me saying that people should just be themselves and sometimes a lable just isnt apart of that and it shouldnt be required#also i take it all back actually romano identifies as bisexual so he can call germany the f slur#ask#SWAG

I’m pretty thankful for the fact that the letter has never been too popular cuz I know if it was I’d have to see the absolute worst takes about Luke Wright
#the letter#the letter vn#on one side youd have the obvious ppl who are very offended by the fact that the only white man in the cast is being villainized#hed be woobified so hard thered be ppl trying to claim he isnt abusive to hannah actually or some shit like ‘theyre BOTH wrong!!!’#then on the flipside youd have ppl mad that the game is trying to make him sympathetic cuz hes portrayed as a human capable of doing good#and not some bad guy mcbad villain from a kids cartoon that looks into the camera and tells you hes evil#like the whole point of this character is that hes just as capable of good as everyone else cuz he isnt any less human#but he chooses to be shitty so much of the time and he likes to blame it on shit like his dad being an asshole#he gets called out by rebecca for seemingly believing that evil can be passed down genetically and that its inherent to some people#and it hits him hard cuz it forces him to reconcile with the fact that he isnt inherently bad hes like this cuz he made that choice#he loves hannah genuinely but acts like a child and cheats on her constantly and drinks himself to death#he treats everyone working under him as livestock#hes a raging bigot and makes the excuse that black ppl were mean to his mom or something#hed kill anyone if he could further his career#all the wealth and privilege has gone to his head and he knows hes horrible he knows his mother wouldnt have wanted this#but he wallows in self pity and refuses to take accountability#i love how hes charming and funny too like you find yourself thinking hes an ass but you can see exactly why people fall for him#he can be a good person when he tries he can give good advice he can even be gentle#but good god hes caused so much damage and faces zero repercussions cuz hes a rich white guy#i love it so much i love when abusive characters are written as human and you know exactly why they are like this#and you can even relate to them and like them and youre forced to be uncomfortable with that truth#cuz its the simple reality!#but i know tumblrinas are not smart enough to understand that akdjks
