Opinion in anime
luv it!! i prefer manga tbh, but my first anime was inuyasha on adult swim when i was a kid. the first anime i really fixated on was naruto tho, and that was sorta my staple for years. it's sort of a core part of my soul... or whatever.
overall some of my favorite animes are neon genesis evangelion, FLCL, dress up darling, k-on, ouran high school host club, and i'm slowly watching fruits basket with my bf. of course ghibli was also some of my first introductions to the style, spirited away being my favorite~
i like watching anime adaptions of manga once i've read them! i was a fan of chainsaw man manga part 1 while it was still dropping, so i was super excited for the anime, and super happy with how it turned out!! i just finished mahou sjoujo site, and i wanna watch that anime but... looks like ass

Apart from show canon, at which point did u think it was too late for lena's immediate forgiveness to kara's identity reveal
oh boy. anon, here is where i come clean about my shoddy recollection of canon’s chronology. i’ve done so many fragmented rewatches and skipping back and forth—there’s a reason i rarely dabble with canon-adjacent stuff! and that even when i do, i create worlds where Lena figures it out herself! 
second road bump to answering this question is that i have a LOT of feelings about how things played out on the show, and most of them are incongruent with the tone of sgcw. i understand their narrative reasons for keeping the secret from Lena for so long! but the execution is so, so terrible! ignoring large swathes of canon and replacing them with my own is the only way i’m able to enjoy at least the last tiny handful of seasons!
here is where i spend an hour procrastinating from my WIPs, while not successfully answering your question at all:
to be perfectly clear: i adore most parts of canon Kara. and i think i may be hard on her in ways i wouldn't be if i didn’t relate to her so much. i think her backstory is extremely compelling and i admire her ability to hold on to her kindness and hope and joy even after losing everything that was important to her, even when she’s tired and lonely and mad. 
BUT. a healthy Lena—one who we were made to believe was finally freeing herself from Lex and Lillian, rising above the coping mechanisms she’d developed as an unwanted and emotionally neglected child? i don’t think that Lena would (should?) have forgiven canon Kara at all.
after the rift, canon Kara flitted between telling Lena she’d lied to her ‘to protect you’ to ‘one person who sees me only as Kara’ to ‘your last name’ to ‘didn’t want to lose you’ until she literally told Lena she was on her own, and she’d treat her like any other villain until Lena repented, even rejecting her apology at first, as if Kara’s own decisions had played no part in Lena’s downward spiral at all.
the Kara Lena would have forgiven is the much more cohesive and coherent Kara brought to us by our talented fix-it writers: a Kara who is willing to let herself be vulnerable and to second-guess her motivations, one who is able to put together a proper apology and actually listen to Lena's own. 
but, okay, lets table all of that. this is me trying really, really hard to entertain canon:
Kara and Lena’s friendship became painfully lopsided by season 3. i think that was, if i recall correctly, when the super-friends decided to trust Lena enough to regularly ask her for assistance—but not enough to let her be part of their in-group; it’s where they left Lena in the dark about the fact that her best friend had come close to plunging to her death right in front of Lena's eyes, and was actively still fighting for her life; where they tricked Lena into having an extremely personal conversation with J’onn, while he was wearing Kara’s features, only to make belly-laughing fun of her about it later. 
and even then, honestly, it might already have been too late. what about the aftermath of Jack’s death? was that season 2? Jack was Lena’s ex-everything, someone who genuinely loved her, who saw her through the fallout of Lex’s arrest. he was one of her last remaining friends, and Lena pressed the button to let him die in order to save Supergirl’s life. how would Lena knowing that Kara went through that with her, knowing Lena had chosen to save the life of her favorite person in addition to National City’s hero, have changed the way she felt about that horrible situation? that’s where that extremely wonderful heart-to-heart on the L-Corp couch happened, right? Kara swore she’d always be Lena’s friend—while keeping silent about the fact that she was there when Jack drew his last breath, that she had witnessed their final moments.
so—i really can’t tell you anon, i’m so sorry. the 100th episode already fabricated reasons why Kara couldn’t possibly come clean to Lena back when she made the conscious decision to be her friend (and not in a ‘keep your enemies close’ kind of way!), and i’m beginning to think that was the only moment Kara could have told Lena that would have kept her conscience completely clear. Kara should have made it part of her decision—either she was going to be Lena’s friend and give her the same trust Lena was giving her, or she would keep things professional, and keep her identity a secret from her. 
Kara tried to do both, and if i really think about it, i don’t believe that was ever fair.

Re Phantom: in the full unedited original version of the original book (the easy to find/cheapest original translation is unfortunately very edited, but most readers don't know this.) Christine’s feelings for both Erik and Raoul are not that clearly defined. She sees Raoul more as a safe option from feelings she cannot define and that would be frowned upon by society. Even Raoul senses this at points and keeps questioning Christine’s true intentions. I feel ALW only realised that he had been missing important clues from the book, which he tried to use in LND.
(In case you only know Poto from the movie: Christine was in her 20's when she arrived at the Opera in the og story and the whole thing happened in about three months.)
oh I didnt know that about the book! I read it in high school and presumably the library's copy was the abridged one. I cant speak to Christine's feelings in the book bc it has been a long ass time since I read it and at that point I had even less of a handle on what this 'romantic attraction' thing looks like than I do now lol
it may be that alw incorporated that into lnd, although I do still think it was a bad decision. like, a sequel that posits that in poto they were clinging to each other to get through their situation, and their romance was more focused on finally finding someone Safe with whom to escape the situation/ rescuing your childhood friend and being a support for her than it was on actual compatibility - that could definitely be interesting! It's not where I personally would want to take a poto sequel, because I dont find it to be suuuuper well supported in the musical, but then again theres not really any direction I'd want to take a poto sequel at all
however my issue with lnd's characterization is not that christine and raoul are having marital issues, it's that their character arcs were completely undone in service of the e/c endgame. christine went back to the man she spent the entirety of poto trying to escape from - and lnd argues that she chose wrong when she chose raoul, the man who did not isolate and terrorize her, over erik, the man who did. as a matter of fact lnd seems to just completely ignore that erik isolated and terrorized her, and that that's why she left him and stayed gone even after Erik did his heel-turn and let her go. and raoul became, like, cartoonishly shitty in order to make erik look good in comparison when his entire arc in poto is ceasing to be a domineering egotistical shithead, look how they massacred my boy etc

"Tarn Anon"
*Transmission straight into Hashtag*
So you are the Terrans that Shockwave has informed us about he was correct, you are inferior. Do not think your fleshlings bond with Megatron will save you and your doomed brood, we will find you and we will terminate you. And just to give you a taste of what you will face.
*Forcibly uploads all the photos of the DJDs past victims*
Tumblr media
Hashtag: Oh! A new as-
*Alert going off*
Whoosh!
Hashtag: hu-? Wha- where’d it go? I didn’t accidentally delete it did I??
Tumblr media
Tarantulas: Tarn.
Tarantulas: I do not appreciate you threatening my assistant and their siblings. Let alone with want to kill them, or your attempts to traumatize them.
Tarantulas: keep your grimy claws off my little sparks.
Megatron: Tarn. We speak once more.
Megatron: I appreciate your dedication to your assignment from past leaders of the faction, but please remain within your field.
Megatron: As I have detailed to you and your lot, I am very different from my predecessors, and sparklings - such as the Terrans - are very strictly off limits to you all. We went over this with Silver, and Hot Rod.
Megatron: And even so, recall, they are to follow us up one day, when we eventually die off, Tarn. Because we will. No one is immortal.
Megatron: And they are young. Innocent, naive- impressionable. If you want to sway them over -
Megatron: - which is very possible, they have plenty of Decepticon influence, and Nightshade and Thrash both show interest in the Decepticons, who knows the decisions their siblings may make in their stead -
Megatron: Don’t try to scare them away. Yes?
Megatron: And do not take this as either one or the other - this is both your first warning, and my advice in an attempt to help you, if you want to bring the little ones in.
Megatron: The only order I have for you further regarding this matter, is either if you cannot tone yourself down a touch to mind your own, or if you are so keen on getting closer to them you sweeten up a little. I know you can, Tarn.
Megatron: Megatron, out.
Tarantulas: and for the record, nearly all of these messages from you to them, will be directed back to me. So it will be either coordinate with myself and Megatron, or leave. my. littlesparks. ALONE.
Tumblr media
Hashtag: that sucks. It must have been deleted by accident somehow…
Tarantulas: do not fret, child. I’m sure a simple apology will be enough for whoever it was.
Hashtag: Whoever you were, I’m sorry! I think tumblr ate it! >A<'
Hashtag: maybe try again later? <:)

your content, it brings out genuine feelings in me that I could not hope to describe. Do I cry about it? Maybe!!! I love you (from afar) xo
so sorry about the genuine feelings, get well soon!!/j
ok so jokes aside im feeling somewhat delirious and chatty so right now me and you are gonna pretend lie down on some imaginary grass and stare at some made up clouds while i ramble
isn't it fucking cool?i made something from my corner of the globe, something that is a culmination of my lived experiences and tastes, and despite my content not being about that (it's all fanart of a thing i care about) it resonated with you?? someone who's life i cannot even begin to comprehend because to me you only exist as words in my inbox and potential? you could be anyone and anything to me, stranger! and so am i to you! some random person on the internet that you know exclusively through a combination of pictures and text and pixels- yet you feel as if you love me? because i've somehow created something that made you feel seen emotionally in some way? wow.
i think that's cool!

“Your family loves you, y’know.”
     THE SILENCE THAT follows the statement is HEAVY — and TENSE. WAY TOO TENSE. The fly mutant says absolutely NOTHING at first to the sentiment; his expression is difficult to get a read on. HE’S DISPLEASED BY THE WORDS, that much is obvious.The hardened gaze, the deep furrow in his brow, the tight frown on his face just shy of being a sneer. It’s like he HATES that such a phrase has been uttered to him — and, hell, it could very well be true.
     THEY ABANDONED HIM. THEY LEFT HIM FOR A DIFFERENT FAMILY, AFTER EVERYTHING HE DID FOR THEM. Where the HELL is the assurance that they LOVE HIM in all of that ?  Here he is, hunched up in some nook, doing little more than PATHETICALLY lounging around. Can’t go anywhere without TCRI potentially breathing down his damn neck; can’t turn to anyone for help. He’s completely ALONE out here. Elusive criminal mastermind reduced down to— THIS. THEY PUT HIM HERE. ALL OF THEM. HIS OWN FAMILY. HOW COULD THEY ?
    And yet…there’s a sort of sadness in there, in the midst of all of that RAGE, accompanied by a slight droop of his antennae. He should hate them, after what they did. After how they hurt him.  ( yet, as PISSED OFF as he is, he can’t say he does. )  He just doesn’t understand. IF THEY LOVE HIM, THEN WHY DID THEY DO THIS TO HIM ?

I love that Matt and Tom both love the colors blue and orange. I think it's hilarious that they both made in part of their brand.
It's cute, they are good friends, they often get paired together, the have similar interests and skills they have the same favorite colors
God I love them, some kind of soulmate bullshit happening with those two
kings of having good taste in color combos

It’s the lightheartedness. I feel like I’m watching a late 80s to early 90s rom-com when I’m reading your stories 💖
Awww, thank you! I certainly write a lot of light-hearted fluff and I'm glad you appreciate it! I always hope to make someone's day a little better 💕

😬 and 🎭 for Shadow and Rouge, and 👻 for Team Triple S 👀
Anon you are clearly just here for the angst and i respect you for it /gen
😬 about the worst thing they've ever done-
Shadow: there's a lot to pick from here. Black Arms invasion, almost blowing up the planet, "letting" maria die... he tries not to think about it too much anymore, but every once in a while it gets to him and sends him into a spiral. Rouge is pretty good at noticing this and will distract him any way she can. It's also why she encourages him to take home a chao and start doing volunteer work. Sometimes just staying busy (and helping others) is the best solution!
Rouge: my version of her carries a lot of old bitterness, but it bothers her less and less every day after she forms team dark. However, if she had one huge regret, I think it would be.. literally everything she said to shadow right before he died. She's glad he doesn't remember it and she feels incredibly guilty for being glad. Rouge mentions this to Shadow and he tells her he doesn't care but is happy to try and make her cry to even the score :P
🎭 what they lie about-
Shadow: being in pain, being upset. His lack of expression and vocal tone makes him almost impossible to read. Rouge is very good at reading body language, though, and quickly learns how to tell when he's stressed
Rouge: everything. she doesn't know how to be vulnerable and lies as a knee-jerk response. She hates it, but doesn't know how to do anything else. Shadow and omega catch on after a while and begin to default to guessing when she's upset and acting accordingly. They don't always get it right, but she's very touched that they keep trying!
👻 what scares them-
Sonic: losing the people he loves
Shadow: hurting the people he loves
Silver: I think he's so accustomed to a life spent in hell that not much scares him anymore, so I'm gonna go with public speaking.

One of the rough parts about US cryptids is that a good handful (if not the majority) are appropriated from the beliefs of the First Nations. I think Mothman is one of the few that is not? If you wanna delve into it, looking for critical, scholarly articles concerning the subject might be way more available.
Oh yeah, that's why i was a bit hesitant about the topic but honestly nothing.... Exciting? Or entertaining is coming to my mind rn, i feel like every idea i have is kinda boring which is new because usually i can come up with good topics just fine
But rn the elden ring playthrough im watching is much more important 😔

Keys to a car
Tumblr media
"Hey, Tab, look at this!" the criminal exclaims gleefully, holding up a dirt-crusted key, "This key is for a Daewoo. They haven't sold those here for years!"
Tabitha smiled, surprised at how such a little thing seemed to suddenly lift her fiance's mood. At the same time, she had no idea what he was talking about.
Tumblr media
"Is...Is it valuable, or something?"
Tumblr media
"No, quite the opposite, actually."

(hi im back I got scared bc I worried I'd focused too much on myself in my last ask and the demons took over Help) idk why im shocked that there aren't any fics unique to wattpad I dont think the boyboy following is a wattpad bunch we're all old pretentious fucks (endearing). I rly hope they're cool with fics,,, i hope they Get It,,, that would be really sick. they've surprised me before, they can do it again!
you ARE being brave holy shit if I was in your position I think I'd shit myself to DEATH this tension is killing me but I agree your fics are so well written like they're rpf but more importantly they're really good??? truly moving?? literary even??? and i have hope that they'll appreciate that too
- 🌵
HIIIIIIIIIII noooooooo omg not at all!!! its just that ive genuinely sucked ass at answering asks in general since the dawn of time and in the past couple of weeks i have gotten more asks than ive ever received before in my entire life LOL plus my memory is shit so if i dont answer Immediately i forget ive even been sent anything in the first place and its just this whole thing but me not responding wasnt caused by anything you did in the slightest i LOVE getting asks from you!!!
god i literally know it makes complete sense but at the same time it surprised me as well maybe wattpad rly isnt what i remember it being anymore maybe it has fallen off in a pretty major way since 2014..... dude i literally cannot exaggerate how much i want that to be true LOL i rly rly rly hope they are too like i know logically they wouldnt be making the video if they werent but still...... tbh aleksa does strike me as someone who has legitimately written self insert fanfiction abt him & alex in the past so. i think there's some hope for us (joking obvs. unless..)
im gonna be real there hasnt been one moment in the past couple of days where i wasnt shitting and pissing and vomiting myself to death i literally wake up in cold sweat nowadays expecting my inbox to be flooded w anons being like DUDE THE VIDEO IS OUT FHFGNG.. like its BAD the tension is kiling me as well. ohhhhhmy god stop you guys are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo niceys to me i cant believe it..... god.....them apprer . them Complim , them ap- i cant even say it . is something i genuinely honestly cannot even begin to think abt like you guys r being so brave and normal abt this and r trying to comfort me constantly and i just feel like i havent made any mental progress at all since the day of the fateful discovery LOL like ever since i learned its not gonna be posted to their patreon w roughly 5000 subscibers like i hoped but instead to their yt channel with 800k+ subscibers i have been trying even Harder to gaslight myself into thinking my fics somehow wont make it into the video bc when i like sit down and make a serious attempt to entertain the possibility of 800k ppl potentially seeing my writing its just . Like my brain legitimately shuts down. i just cannot physically or mentally comprehend that number at all its not REAL!!!! to me!!!!!! get me out of here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
