#some hot takes

[quill-pen]

@rom-e-o Considering still touching on the whole lichdom concept in my AU because liches would still be a thing but making it a bit more nuanced. Points to note:

Emmerich and Guinevere have a much longer and deeper conversation about the idea that may take a few days rather than a few minutes in front of lichlords.

Guinevere raising such questions as: "Why do you really want this?", "Have you really thought about what immortality means?", "What does it truly mean to be a lich?", and "Can you really throw your humanity away so easily?"

G'iney claiming she's not so sure Emmerich's lich form will still be him. At least not exactly. "How can it really be you when your humanity is gone? If your heart is in a jar and a part of it is gone? Manfred was a piece of your heart. He was a piece of our heart."

Speaking of his heart, G'iney lamenting never being able to hear it again, never being able to feel it again should he become a lich.

Confessing she feels like there will be less of him for her to love at best and a facsimile of him to love at worst. "I don't want a copy, no matter how exact it is. I want the original Emmerich. I want you."

Also confesses, while his greatest fear is dying and leaving her alone to mourn him, her greatest fear is dying and spending eternity without him. "As much as I do dread the thought of you dying and leaving me behind one day, I find comfort in knowing you'll be there on the other side to welcome me when my own time comes. And should I happen to go before you, know that I'll be waiting with bated breath and preparing to do the same. But those things can't happen if we're separated by immortality."

Expanding on the previous a bit: "You'll never get to meet my Gramps and Gran. You'll never see your parents again."

"What if you lose touch with who you were as a mortal? What if you stop being you--the man I fell in love with? The man Manfred loved."

Declares she wants a meeting with the lichlords to ask them questions Emmerich can't answer herself. Whether he goes with her or not is entirely up to him, but I think he does.

RANKING EVERY PARENTS IN INAZUMA ELEVEN BECAUSE

Disclaimer : this is just opinion, not evangelic truth. Gathering all the parents existing in the license took me time, some of them i didn't know existed. I haven't watched the anime properly since a long time ago. I am also in no position to know what it takes to be a real parent fr. This tierlist CANNOT be objective so do not take it seriously.

for the monaco gp next year instead of the regular commentators can we have like ten retired drivers on a yacht with copious amounts of alcohol instead? like imagine jenson feeding nico multiple rounds of tequila shots and convincing him to drop brocedes lore so fucking insane it makes lewis' spidey senses tingle live on air. meanwhile, seb is trying to stop kimi from falling off said yacht every five seconds and mahk webbah is trying to either rope everyone into karaoke or is gushing about his adoptive son oscar. david is calling every driver who fucks their car into a wall a cunt and mika is on facetime with his husband and sipping a mai-tai in the hot tub and a least one of them is puking off the side of the boat in the end

Yet another photo post heheheh

on a completely separate note; shizun luo binghe with a disciple shen yuan who fell into the abyss??? *thinks about LBH canonically stealing SQQ's corpse for 5 years* he'd hallucinate i think. like, like visual and audial hallucinations.

Keeps thinking he's seeing SQQ in the corner of his eyes, or wandering between the trees, amongst a group of disciples. Thinks he hears him calling for him, but its just the wind or another disciple.

Gets Xiu Ya reforged but patently fucking refuses to make a sword mound. Because his disciple Is Not Dead :))) There was No Body. He's Not Dead. And If You keep Insisting That He Is, He's Gonna Skewer You :). He's holding onto Xiu Ya so he can return his most favored disciple's sword when he returns. It's on his hip right next to Zheng Yang where it's supposed to be.

Also this motherfucker?? does not sleep btw. He has the image of SQQ, wide eyed and hysterical and standing at the mouth of the abyss burned into his fucking eyelids. Can't use the dreamscape to escape it either because he keeps trying to save him and either he does and it's an incredibly cruel trick to wake up to, or he doesn't and he gets his heart broken in several different pieces again.

There is no convincing this man that Shen Qingqiu is dead. Absolutely nothing at all. He is buried so deep in denial that moles would be jealous of how deep he is. He keeps making tea for two in the bamboo house only to remember that it's just him. SQQ's fans are hiding everywhere, little reminders of his presence. He goes to wake up SQQ on the mornings he sleeps in-- only to find the room empty.

Hot take: I actually think men and women are meant to work together and complement each other and not like,,, dislike each other and be divisive.

[mamawasatesttube]

i still can't believe that "you should read comic books in the comic book fandom" is somehow some kind of spicy hot take tbh. comics are cool and some of them have my best friend superman in them. and if that's not enough they even have lois lane. what's not clicking

[angry-kid-with-no-money]

"Nora doesn't know anything about the things she writes about" "aftg is terrible queer rep" "the queer characters in aftg are so problematic"

Idk guys maybe the book series abt problematic ppl set in 2006 and written in the mid 2010s shouldn't be expected to hold up against scrutiny of what we consider to be moral and correct now, in 2024

Idk tho, idk

stanley pines really is one of the characters of all time. he's a gemini and an identical twin but knowing this is a major spoiler for the show. he punched a pterodactyl in the face. he wore groucho marx glasses to his b'nei mitzvah. he invented imposter syndrome. he's a massive jerk. he's transgender and a misogynist. he scares children for fun and actively seeks out reasons to fight them. he's from new jersey. his adhd and autism are battling to the death. he has a tattoo but he doesn't have a tattoo. he punched his brother in the face. he's been to jail in three different countries. he dropped out of high school only to spend 30 years teaching himself nuclear physics and quantum mechanics. he's divorced. he hired a gamer as a handyman 10 years ago and the gamer is kind of his son now. he lives off of brown meat, soda, liquor, bad puns, and cigars. he's a professional con artist. he's a terrible liar. he banished his brother to the nether realm for decades, but like, it was an accident. his dad kicked him out of home. he regularly commits massive tax fraud. he needs dentures by the age of 60. his niece will tell you he has a heart of gold. his nephew will say it's probably pyrite. he will hold on to a grudge until it kills him. no one can hate him more than he already hates himself. he saved the world by lying. he's bi and no one wants him, but that's okay because he gets sick of them all the morning after anyway. he's living out his dreams on a boat but realistically he's gonna get seasick and want to go home in less than a year. he killed the devil by punching him in the face. he's stealing your wallet right now

Anyway I’m a clown because this is how I chose to costume myself as a female Orc for a renfaire

In my defense, it was nearly 100 degrees out and being sexy is fun

[maria-is-stupid]

Poopet and the grumy grumper. (I couldn't think of a better title)

[rosenr0tten]

Meljay isn’t boring. Most people are just unwilling to discuss or engage with them in a meaningful way because of their own biases + inability to think of ship dynamics beyond their cookie cutter tropes
