#so she has always been pretty battle-ready-ish and trainer-like for me

fuck it, my own Hoenn protag redesigns!!

i actually like most of ORAS redesigns (esp the gym leaders), buuut I really don't like the protagonists and the evil teams (maxie what did they do to you). also I love Emerald more so i guess you can say these designs would be for an ORAS-like Emerald remake lol

Thor Ragnarok: Short Review

Things I didn't like as much:

Doctor Strange cameo felt out-of-place, it'll make sense in Infinity War but for the movie on its own it didn't work as well, needed to be tied in better 

The rock guy was a little strange

electronic/rock music was not to my taste

The “revengers?” Seriously?

Thor’s big makeover was just the Stan Lee cameo, easily my least favorite of the cameos to date, clever but unsettling, and then you cut to the arena

Where the heck was Sif? And why did Farandal, Volstagg, and Hogun have to die so quickly? What do you mean Thor doesn’t get a reunion with his original squad

The Grand Master whatever dude was kind of lame. Overdone.

Yeah, I miss Jane, Darcy, and Selvig, but what we get instead is actually pretty cool

Thinks I liked A LOT:

I’m a medievalist so I’ve always wanted Asgard to be more Viking-ish. In Thor (2011) the Asgardians dress more like the Greeks; in Thor TDW we don’t get as much good screentime for the Asgardians. But Ragnarok we get a really good sense of the people of Asgard, they dress a little more like Space Vikings. More importantly they are ready for a dramatic last stand. We can see why Thor cares about his people so much and what he’s trying to get his teammates to care about. 

The humor was actually great

GOOD GOLLY THAT GIRL THAT ALMOST GOT BEHADED WAS BEAUTIFUL

HEEEELLLAAAAAA IS THE BOOOOOMB

Thor: still looks better with long hair. But he’s a hero, he wants to do the right thing, and he does his best to encourage the people around him to be their best. My appreciation for Thor has never been greater.

THOR AND LOKI HAVING BROTHER BONDING TIME AND FINALLY HEALING THEIR RELATIONSHIP STEVE AND BUCKY AND ALL THE REST OF YOU MIDGARD AVENGERS TAKE NOTE

Thor and Loki being awesome battle buddies just like old times

Loki: finally decides to do the right thing. Awesome performance all the way through. 

Loki’s face when Hulk entered the Arena

MY MOTHER WAS LAUGHING THAT ENTIRE SCENE

Actually as the arena battle progressed I felt increasingly more sympathetic towards Loki

Valkyrie: I was determined to not like her character unless the story gave me a good reason to. But a little bit at a time I got attached to her. Finally I was convinced that she was awesome

And now I am convinced she is qualified to be in Infinity War

I do not ship Valkyrie with anyone. She doesn’t need to be with anyone. 

I’m going to call her Val for short

“You are not the god of hammers”

Hulk/Banner’s arc was painful. But in a good way

Valkyrie’s relationship as a trainer/playmate for Hulk 10/10 I need more of that

“I got these from a place called Teeehx-as. Their names are Des and Troy.”

Skurge, You da real MVP

Hemidall at the top of his game *rooting*

Thor being a mystic/seer this is a great development, keep it going

Thor: Ragnarok is up there with Marvel’s best films. It is moving and inspiring, it has great action and humor, but addresses the Asgardian apocalypse with appropriate reverence. booyah!

im not wearing my glasses n thats a lot of reading so uhh any one with a number 7 in it those are the ones I'm asking

This took forever and a day babe, i hope you’re happy

7: do you name your plants?

I don’t have any because i kill everything i touch, but if i did, i probably would.

17: what color do you really want to dye your hair?

A purplish-red! Like so:

27: what’s your favorite bubblegum flavor?

I don’t really chew bubblegum… but i think I enjoy mint the most

37: do you like keeping your room messy or clean?

Tbh, I like it best when it’s messy-ish clean. Like, it’s clean, but it’s obviously lived in, like the bed isn’t made, and there’s books all over the place… But, in all honesty, my room tends to be messy just because keeping it clean so constantly is a lot of effort. (My dad likes the say that it’s a symptom of someone who lives so much in their own mind that they pay little attention to their environment. Which isn’t exactly wrong in my case lmao, the only reason i can see as to why keeping things clean is important is to avoid pests and fungi from growing.)

47: what food do you think should be banned from the universe?

I don’t feel strongly enough about anything to want it banned… but could we please stop breakfast restaurants from bringing your toast already buttered? Butter is so gross… it’s only use is to slick the pans when cooking imo.

57: go listen to bohemian rhapsody. how did it make you feel? did you dramatically reenact the lyrics?

I’ve like never listened to this song before honestly and yet, i wanted to sing along… That being said, I actually don’t like this song. Everyone seems to enjoy it a lot and im just like. Painfully neutral about it. it’s kind of boring honestly…

67: how do gloomy days where the sky is dark and the world is misty make you feel?

At peace. The entire world seems to quiet down for a little and it’s nice. In a way, could you almost say that the world falls into a hush, either because it’s the kind of day that makes most other people sad, or because, just for today, it feels like anything could happen, that the fantastical could suddenly emerge from the mist…

Either way, I find those days to be the ones where I feel the most relaxed and happy.

70: have you ever used a ouija board?

Nope!

71: what’s your favorite kind of tea?

This one:

72: are you a person who needs to note everything down or else you’ll forget it?

No. As long as I pay attention, I can remember most things. (Which is good, because my note-taking in class is awful and I’d probably not be able to pass any test if it weren’t for that.)

73: what are some of your worst habits?

Procrastination. Going to bed at like 2 am. Not immediately cleaning up after myself. Refusing to do things with my friends because I don’t feel social. (and… im going to stop here bc if i continue things are really going to become self-loathing)

74: describe a good friend of yours without using their name or gendered pronouns.

They gorgeous, silky hair that i love running my fingers through, They’re pretty tall. And they’re good at everything!!! Gym, arts and crafts, writing, theater, music... the only thing they struggle with is physics and chemistry, and they’re a bit slow in math (well, compared to me at least). They love having fun and being silly and laughing, and they really love my sarcasm for some reason i dont understand it,  and they’re one of the sweetest people you will ever meet in your life. A good heart and soul through and through, and i don’t understand why they’re my friend, but they seem to like me so im just rolling with it.

75: tell us about your pets!

They’re dead.

Nah okay, I’ll tell you about… all of them that I can remember.

There’s Rascal, my cat!!!! He was a grey and brown tabby with supper fluffy fur!!! We kind of suspected he was part ragdoll lol. My mom used to intern at the vet’s and someone brought him in as a kitten in the middle of winter. Mom offered to have him stay with us until he got better, but we ended up adopting him lol. We instantly bonded, and he was my closest, and pretty much only, friend throughout my entire childhood!!! Lying down with him on top of me, purring, always made me feel better. He was extremely gentle and lazy. He almost never went outside lol. And he knew how to relax next to someone without getting in their way (going on my lap while i was on the computer, or off to the side of the desk, or even just lying on top of my mouse arm). If I called him, he would instantly come running. That’s actually how we got him down when he was stuck in a tree, I called for him and he raced down the trunk. But it had to be in a special way! You ready for what it was? Rascally-dascally-poo. He was a good kitty. Some days, I miss him more than anything else in the world.

There was Whiskers, a tuxedo cat. Easily the most dignified and sophisticated cat you will ever meet in your life. The leader of the cats and a badass. When one of the other cats was being harassed by a neighborhood cat, Whiskers handed his ass to him. He took Rascal under his wing and taught him how to use the litter box. When we got Bear and Bear would bark and snap at the cats, Whiskers chased him around the goddamn yard. If there was ever a kittypet that deserved to go to Starclan, it was him.

Next is Butterscotch, an orange tabby, who might actually still be alive. He was a… rougher kind of cat. Outdoorsy. Wasn’t the type to cuddle at all, and usually off doing his own thing. He ran away after too many dogs, because honestly, he was probably sick of this shit, of his home life being continually disrupted like that. Mom says she’s seen him around before.

Then there’s Cuddles, a completely black cat with thumbs! She would open doors lol Independent af. Killed a lot of birds in her time. She and Whiskers used to team up actually. She would climb the trees to get the newborn chicks to fall off the branches and Whiskers would finish them off or eat them. She had a little bit of an attitude for sure. Had to get rid of her though, when she started peeing everywhere when we got Bear. I think her and Butterscotch used to follow us to our bus stop from time to time.

We also had Sam, a black shaggy dog. The sweetest thing ever and gentle. Smart too. The cats could actually sleep on top of him and he wouldn’t care at all.  He died when I was, wow, i think near the end of primary? it’s been a while, so i dont remember him much.

All five of those pets used to live together in the same house btw. And once he died, we tried to get other dogs. I remember Chloe, who would jump into our pool and swim with us. I think then was Bear, a German Shepard, who really didn’t like the cats at all. We tried getting another German Shepard, Drago, but he attacked a kid, so we had to put him down. Then we tried Smudge, a tiny-sh dog, that reminds me of a scottish terrier but isn’t that at all. He was black and he would definitely try and keep up with Bear. But we waited too long to get him neutered and he started peeing on things, so we had to give him up. I think it was around this point that Cuddles also started peeing on things and Butterscotch ran away.

I live with my dad now, and he doesn’t have any pets. My mom has three cats though. Tux, another Tuxedo cat, who is huge!!! He loves eating, but he’s an outdoors cat, so part of it is also muscle. Very lazy, and pretty sweet. I love chilling with him. There’s Ebony, a black cat, that, in all honesty, is a total bitch. Just. She’s a bitch okay. Hisses at everything. Hates everyone. Stays outdoors for as much as she can. Lastly, there’s Raphael, a pure siamese, who’s still pretty young and a lot playful. An annoying shit that bothers Tux and Ebony a lot, which makes them avoid staying indoors for as much as possible. Extremely clingy to mom too.

I think I’ve covered all of them? Oh, my older brother had a stint where he owned some birds, but, uh, birds actually freak him out a lot and he only did it because one of his friends owns some and like breeds them.

76: is there anything you should be doing right now but aren’t?

Applying for jobs. Checking my final grades. Calling the hospital to make an appointment. 

77: pink or yellow lemonade?

yellow lemonade

78: are you in the minion hateclub or fanclub?

Neither. They’re not that great, but they are pretty cute and funny.

79: what’s one of the cutest things someone has ever done for you?

My little brother drew a picture for me of me and him having a pokemon battle!!! He was the champion and he had a greninja (his favourite pokemon) and i was an Ace pokemon trainer and i had an absol (my favourite pokemon). It’s pinned to my corkboard right now. 

87: what are some movies you think everyone should watch at least once in their lives?

Night of the Lepus. You haven’t lived until you’ve watch ‘giant’ rabbits run through a ‘town’ set to what can only be described as darkwave music.

(in all honesty, i have no idea. im not a movie buff??? ive got nothing for you. pls leave me alone, this is harassment.)

97: myer briggs type, zodiac sign, and hogwarts house?

INTP, Capricorn, and Hufflepuff (actually more of a ravenpuff, but i like being in hufflepuff more)
