#sorry if this came off as aggressive

[raptor-claw]

oh shit im ever so sorry for not indicating what is clearly obvious. most fucking ships are headcanons, hot takes and opinions. not to mention how it’s very clear that the conviction in my post was me doing a thing called ‘joking’ and exaggerating for laughs. though i personally believe dean is bi, i would never pretend that it’s canon or true. hence why i tagged it with destiel and dean is bi, as my target audience was people who would appreciate the post and not jerks who choose to be rude over it.

i see where you’re coming from with the general tags however, and i would agree with you were it not for the fact that when you block a tag on tumblr all posts with that tag will be invisible for you, regardless of the other tags. so the fact that i tagged it with supernatural does not effect the situation at all :) even if you were correct and it showed up even though she blocked the tag, she still decided to interact hatefully with a post that would have been so much easier for her to ignore.

don’t tell me to ‘stay in my lane’ when both of y’all reblogged a post clearly not targeted to you, clearly not bashing any other headcanons or ships, and was clearly none of your business to interact with considering your opinions. the fact that the original reblogger did shows that she was looking for drama and a reason to get upset.

i love this show and i will not tolerate people being dicks about it (her more so than you) especially when they have the much more logical and much easier option of just fucking ignoring it, blocking the tag or blocking my tumblr, like any polite and sane person would do. my og post was meant for fun and lightheartedness, and the fact that it’s now been tainted with this frankly stupid and entirely avoidable argument really pisses me off.

hello kings queens and in-betweens welcome to my ted talk on why dean being bi is hardly subtext (evidence from s1 - s7ep20)

dr sexy

cowboy fetish

siren turning into a man (evidence isn’t concrete as it was for a brotherly bond but thought i’d add it anyway)

“i know two things - bert and ernie are gay, and you’re not gonna die a virgin.” (not direct quote)

looks upon castiel like a starving dog salivating over a bone

never denied it when anyone said he and cas were dating/in love (see: meg saying cas was dean's boyfriend & balthy saying cas was in love with dean)

“cas, not for nothing, but the last time someone looked at me like that, i got laid” *winks* (not direct quote)

totally got jealous at cas kissing meg

turned suicidal when cas betrayed him

everything to do with castiel

whatever the fuck was him flirting with the security guard through charlie in 7x20

etc, etc, etc (so many instances of him being sus asf)

Can we see more Nightmare x Fresh lore? I love the way you tell it!

I need to get huge neon unmissable blinkers that say [I don't ship Fresh x Nightmare.] or something HAHA

I guess... in how I interpret them, Platonically; I imagine Nightmare sees Fresh more like a cute pet, compared to his gang. Fresh's utility is in its presence, while the others are useful in what they can do for him. So he's more sweet on it :-]

[kiisaes]

I still think it's really crazy that Horikoshi did Midoriya so dirty by having him murder the boy he wanted to save, and, now that he's lost his Quirk, is stuck being lonely for like eight years feeling like a husk of his former self, only feeling like himself again when he gets an Iron Man suit. I'm not a big Dekuhead, but I'm asking around to see what Deku fans think of the writer's choices concerning his conclusion. I'd love to hear your thoughts!! did you like this? did you not? why? etc

as a dekuhead, i agree that killing shigaraki was confusing and i still don't know what the thought process is behind that. like, saving him has always been deku's plan and everything was pointing towards shigaraki rehabilitation but then ... we didn't get it???

so yes, shigaraki should have lived (it aligns with deku's goals and the narrative's goals) and toga also should have lived for similar reasons. i also agree that deku's conclusion should have been expanded upon more — i really wanted to see how killing shigaraki, losing his quirk, etc. truly affected deku, and we were kinda left hanging. but also i sorta just equate that with lack of time / horikoshi being rushed to finish his manga

but i fundamentally disagree with the rest of your ask. it feels like you've developed this opinion based on the 430 leaks and not the actual official chapter; it's just misleading. which i don't blame you for, because the mha leaks scene is fucking awful and has ruined an entire reader base's reading comprehension, which has consequently been perpetuated by the fandom

"is stuck being lonely for like eight years feeling like a husk of his former self"

it's not stated if he feels like a husk of his former self or not. he lost his quirk, true, but he verbally says he's ok with it (ofa was like a dream that he got to live out), and never shows that he's particularly depressed or upset about being quirkless again. i feel like this specific idea is very fandom-coded. everyone was drawing deku sad as fuck for losing his quirk but canonically he appears at most wistful, and normally just neutral. it is what it is, yknow? after all he says himself that he was originally quirkless anyway, so not much has changed.

also he mentions feeling lonely, but i hate this idea that deku has been lonely for 8 straight years. people have twisted this into meaning his friends ghosted him after high school, but like ... how would that even make sense. deku's friends love him so much, will fight at the world's end with him, and he changed their lives for the better. they would absolutely not ghost him. they just canonically don't meet up much anymore, because OBVIOUSLY, when you don't live in the same building as your high school classmates anymore you are NOT going to meet up as much as before. this is just how adulting is. you have responsibilities and jobs and lives now. people hate to hear it but it's the most realistic part of this ending.

"only feeling like himself again when he gets an Iron Man suit"

again, we have no idea if deku didn't "feel like himself" when he was just teaching. and this idea that he's not is fueled in some weird anti-teacher belief that i'm seeing a lot of, now that deku pursued education in his future. in my opinion teaching is a very fitting career for him; he's been inspiring and helping his classmates as a student, and he loves quirk analysis and gushing to others about their quirks.

he's literally training a new generation of heroes, he gets to work alongside pros (such as aizawa), he's constantly learning more about new quirks ... why is this not the deku we've known and loved? what about this feels wrong? just because he's not a stereotypical hero on the scene, he's suddenly a worse version of himself?

mha has drilled into our heads so much atp that being quirkless doesn't mean you can't be a hero. deku was quirkless his whole life but he had the spirit of a hero, and even when other heroes quit during the apocalyptic era between wars, deku was still out there, doing what he could. he didn't need the money. he didn't need the fame. he didn't need the recognition or the credit, even. he just wanted to help people. and being a teacher is one of THE most directly helpful jobs you could take.

from what i can tell, people who complained about teacher deku and "peaking during high school" and "working a dead-end minimum wage job" were all from the western fandom. i have not seen a single japanese fan complain to this degree. it's definitely a cultural difference but also i think they just read better than us. UA is a prestigious school with crazy name recognition and all teachers there are registered pro heroes. even though deku isn't technically a pro, they recognized him as one anyway, which allowed him to work there in the first place. like hello. over everything we should be grateful he didn't become a cop.

the way i interpreted him getting his suit was that

his friends love him so much they pooled their money all in secret just to give him another chance at actual hero work, even though they know deku's content with his teaching job. probably also so they can see him more, now that their schedules might align better

even though he's quirkless, he is still symbolically — and literally — a hero. turning society's preconceived opinions of quirkless people on its head

it had nothing to do with making him feel like himself again. he was doing fine. the suit is just a (very expensive, labor of love) perk.

and before anyone complains about him "receiving handouts" and that "he just lazed around for years until his friends picked him back up with the suit", SHUT THE FUCK UP. he's done so much for them that they felt it right to return the favor, especially to the one guy they know who earned it the most. also - he deserved a break from all of the shit he went through; why should it Not take him 8 years? do you KNOW how much pain he suffered? that amount of trauma lasts a lifetime. all of you SHUT UP.

as a dekuhead, i think his conclusion as a teacher who also works as a pro hero is awesome and cool and i see no qualms with that. my main concern is that we should've gotten more of a conclusion to deku's ARC and its connection to the story, but regarding his future 8 years later i'm totally fine with it. he's living out his dreams, working with heroes, studying quirks, and keeping in touch with the ones he loves. that is epic as hell

sometimes I forget that my experience has been. um. not 'your experiences are not universal' vibes but more like 'your experiences are EXTREMELY atypical'

[theoneofwhomisblue]

I'm not

Do you know how long it took to figure out this god damn site? I still don't know how submission blogs work

Is it just a blog you send asks to, and they post em?

Also, I just figured out how to italicize, and color words

You think a subreddit full of people with less patience than me, would use a feature we don't know about, on a site we already know nothing about?

Nuh uh

What is r/196 or rule 196? I've never heard of it before can you explain pls?

r/196 is/was a subreddit on reddit (i.e. reddit.com/r/196/ )

Originally there was r/195 which just had the rule "if you visit the subreddit, you have to post something", made by, and for a few kids in a dorm (dorm room 195, hence the name), but eventually a bunch of people used the subreddit.

By the way, that "rule" I described about posting, is where the rule 196 thing comes from. People made the titles on the reddit posts "rule" or have rule within the title somewhere.

But after 195 shut down, people wanted to continue it, so they made 196, with the same rule. And eventually, for whatever reason, it became a very LGBT dominated space. Especially having a lot of trans people. It was mostly memes and shit.

Then the shit happened with reddit, and the blackouts. And much of r/196 is on Tumblr now. Primarily under the "196" tag. Because most of us didn't go back to reddit, after the subreddit was reopened on reddit.

Also, a bunch of people who got banned from 196, made 197. And a bunch of people who hated the horny posting on 196, made 19684 (1984 reference). Which is the same, except no horny posting is allowed.

[mondaymelon]

how old are you

haha. i dont feel comfortable answering that question.

this is... awfully blunt. like no context straight up- dunno why people are digging into personal things and serious things in my inbox now like did i write something that made yall think id give out private info like that ( nothing against you btw ) ??

its common and known knowledge that to. yk. stay safe online that you shouldn't reveal your legal name, age, blablabla whatever. please understand that i don't feel safe revealing this information to random people online that i don't trust.

for you to read my ffs, all you need to know is that i am a minor who is still in school. if this is the same anon that sent the nsfw ask earlier ( if it's not, sorry ) please stop . my blog doesn't really have relevance to things like that as im writing perfectly non-explicit things : )

ahaha. a hi next time would have been nice /hj

[alicentwhore]

What are your thoughts on Alicent now? The general anti alicents hate her even more now , team green and other alicent stans say the writers hate Alicent and ruined her character for fan service? Or 1st season Alicent would hate this seasons Alicent. What's your take?

I love Alicent as much as I ever did! While I think it was a bit clunky, I do think her character arc made sense and was in fact in character for the Alicent that’s been set up since the beginning.

And like, not to be mean, but I’m gonna be so real. I have always thought a lot of greenies who claimed to be Alicent fans never actually liked Alicent as she existed in the show, they just liked a version of her that they fanonized a bunch. Their love for Alicent was less motivated by Alicent herself, but as either Aegon/Aemond’s mom or as a vessel to hate Rhaenyra. (Like the way they JUMPED her for that trailer in May for TWO LINES OF DIALOGUE?! That made me lose respect for so many greenies man).

I think that’s part of why they think she’s ruined. She’s making a decision that is against the sons she doesn’t like and was forced to have (and one of which is presently an ACTIVE THREAT to her daughter) and still cares for Rhaenyra. The show has made it clear from the beginning that Rhaenyra and Alicent will never truly hate one another. They represent a peace, a happiness (for Alicent possibly the only time she was truly happy) that they can’t let go of.

Also the idea that “Season 1 Alicent would hate this Alicent” is such a joke. Really? The Alicent who was Team Rhaenyra for years after her Aegon’s birth and only switched when she felt Rhaenyra had betrayed her first? (And even then, in episode 6-7 while she talks to Aegon about being king, it’s clear this is not at all motivated by a belief that he should be king, only an idea that it’s the only way to save her family. And after Driftmark she feels so ashamed about causing actual harm to Rhaenyra she becomes extra religious). The season 1 Alicent who clearly resents Aegon and abuses him a ton and straight up DISOWNS him at one point? The same Alicent who, in the end, after giving up on Aegon as a lost cause and finally seeing Rhaenyra again, SUPPORTS and wants to reconcile Rhaenyra in the end? That Alicent?

She only put Aegon on the throne because she thought it was her duty to. She never actually wanted Aegon on the throne. It was because she thought it was some important dream and to keep her children safe. And now Aegon is the king, the dream turned out to be for Rhaenyra, and her children aren’t safe. Aegon has been half-dead for weeks, Aemond fired her and is committing atrocities Willy-nilly and is now trying to force Helaena to go into battle.

Alicent hated the war from the beginning, always saw it as futile and for nothing. And now she’s being proven again and again that all it’s doing is destroying her family (The thing she partially did this to PREVENT). She’s accepting, as much as she hates it, that she can’t save them all (and maybe a part of her. A part that never wanted these kids and who still views them as the shackles that keep her bound and miserable. Who finally sees a chance to be free. Maybe she… doesn’t fully want to) but she can save some of them before it’s too late. For her, Aemond is a lost cause but Helaena and Jaehaera are innocent, they still have a chance.

She doesn’t want Aegon to die, but when presented with the choice of the son she loves but always viewed as a burden, as a chain and a prison, who she hates as much as she loves, or her innocent daughter and granddaughter. It’s doesn’t surprise me at all she would ultimately sacrifice Aegon. For her remaining family, for the realm, for herself.

Show Alicent is not book Alicent and she never will be. (Not that book Alicent is even much of a character but whatever). That’s been clear since the show started and if people haven’t accepted that by now, that’s their own fault.

Like I do have some issues with the execution that I think was a bit rushed, and the show has a problem with going back a fourth between putting all the blame on Alicent for the war and denying any culpability. And the way they’ve kinda just forgotten about Jaehaerys is a bit. Hmm. But like her arc made sense to me and the level of vitriol towards her all season from her so-called fans did catch me off guard.

Anyways this season has just made me an even bigger Show Alicent supporter and defender actually.

Sorry if the thoughts are a bit scattered! I just woke up lol. But yeah that’s mostly how I feel about it!

[imagionationstation]

I think most of ya’ll just about completely missed the entire point of that lesson in “Turtle Temper”

You know that Splinter was trying to prove that “You let yourself get angy and distracted during battle and you gonna die”, right??

This wasn’t no therapy. This wasn’t about his anger as a whole. This wasn’t to tell him, “You get angy and you suck for that”.

This was- “You get angy, and you get distracted, and that could get you killed.”

Yeah, Splinter let his brothers insult him, but how else is he going to get mad by getting insulted if he’s not insulted? How is he gonna learn “baddies are gonna be rude, you gotta ignore them”??

Sure, he had them shoot those rubber arrows to help prove this point- would you rather him have used actual arrows to get his point across???

Now THAT would have been extreme!

“Anger is self-destructive.”

“I always thought anger was others destructive…”

“Raphael!”

Plus, Splinter was probably trying to get that lesson through his head so that he doesn’t get his brothers into trouble or beat up the guy! The same guy who’s probably going to throw around more insults when they go get the video back from him!

Seriously- a guy shows up to a hospital beaten up with some video possibly saved to iCloud of mutant turtles fighting like ninjas? (No, he’s probably not smart enough to save it somewhere secure, but there’s no real way for them to know this.)

After watching that, People will take Vic seriously if he says a mutant turtle beat him up, and the brothers will be branded as evil human-hating mutants that need to be hunted down!

Of course Splinter wants to encourage Raph away from assaulting the dude! Any good dad would!

There are actual moments where Splinter has heart-to-hearts with Raph about his emotions and how they impact the team. Advice that Raph needs and is looking for. Advice that his son listens to and implements because he does want to do better and Splinter does understand!

THAT MOMENT is NOT one of them, and I HATE watching it be branded as such!

Stop branding these good bois as evil- THEY SO GOOD AND THEY LOVE THEIR FAMILY GOSH DARN IT-

I'm getting really bad byler doubt because of matt''s pinterest boards with milkvan. whats youre take on this?

I had to look up what you were talking about because I had no idea what this was about.

First, where's the confirmation? Second, I've a Pinterest, I could change my username to Ross Duffer & have a bunch of Steddie art saved, y'all believing that it's him? Come on. Third, whether you like it or not, Mil*ven is canon as of right now; if it is his account maybe he was just saving art because it's part of the show & liked it at the time.

Byler's like to say they have great media literacy but some of you need to work on your social media literacy.

Sincerely a Byler who doesn't believe any shit that comes from social media. None.

[cherchez-la-femme-vn]

what are the character's orientations?

I usually try and space out my asks but I feel this is important to say. Cherchez La Femme was made to answer a complaint I had with the general lack of female characters in murdersim games. But while I was floating ideas around in a few subreddits a large amount of people assumed that the game would be for women or femmes only which I must say IT IS NOT.

Both Alice and Ash are pansexual and the game WILL have options for pronouns, chest, and genitals.

Cherchez La Femme was made for all the freaks (/pos) who wanted to see gore, guts, and blood, but this time on boobs!

Okay if the Community movie ends up being bad, can we agree to not do any "erm actually I always knew it was gonna be bad" bullcrap?

Hector being a pillow princess is a joke, but I disagree with be able to assign a clear-cut position like "service top" and said character is always like that no matter the circumstances or whoever they with (Not just with Hector, but in general)

Like this could never happen:

Isaac: Hector is a pillow princess

Hector: I regularly rocks your world. What are you talking about?

Isaac: You don't remember when you just laid there and let me do all the work. Your excuse was "Oh, I'm sooo exhausted from all the devil forging. Isaac, could you bless me with your gorgeous body" and I your generous buddy make sure you felt amazing.

Hector: That was once. One. Time. And that was not what I said

If so, we can only agree to disagree :P

It was meant to be a joke lol, sorry if it came off as me really saying that you're wrong

I kind of elaborated more in the notes that the part I disagreed the most was not the "Hector bottoms" part, but the "Hector would lay there and take it without reciprocating" part because his personality shows the complete opposite mentality. But when it comes to general positions, then absolutely I'm all for switching!

... and your scenario is perfectly IC lmao. they'd so would argue about things like that, and Isaac 100% would brag about his skills in bed with Hector being all "press X to doubt" because he will not give him a single W

anyway we need more isaac topping hector in fluffy contexts. i don't want it to be relegated to noncon when it has the potential to be funny as hell

actually you know what i'm going to be cringe on main anddddd

I did my part ;)
