#the gap is overwhelming

[aihoshiino]

i see a lot of fanart or otherwise fandom depictions of Ai as this perfect housewifey type girlfriend and mother and I am standing up and making the bold declaration that if you hold true love for Hoshino Ai in your heart, you must accept the truth and realize that the girl is the most enthusiastic failwife ever to walk planet earth.

she was never taught basic common sense and self care growing up! you think she knows how to use a rice cooker without burning it or using too much water??? i just KNOW when she was making bentos for Aqua and Ruby (because of course she did her best to cook for them despite her ineptitude because she's a good mom who wanted to make good food for her kids) she came away with band aids up and down every single finger. she under and overseasons everything. she forgets you can't just set and forget real food like you do with microwave instant meals. once she almost burned cup noodles. do you understand my vision????????

Thinking about Orchid and her connection to my take on Gender (because this was meant to be about her and the Crew but it just devolved into a character analysis kinda??? More trauma-dumping maybe???) This is very much an oc/personal rant so feel free to ignore it 🫡

So, Orchid started off as a character I didn't really think much of (hear me out this is going to be relevant) because I wanted to add a 'girl' character but didn't know what to *do* with her, y'know? She was always going to be the strongest one there, she had the odds stacked in her favor with her parents. She was always going to be the gloomy side-character to match Reset's energy. But I think she's gone through every stage of Generic Woman I could possibly find.

At first she was angry and abrasive (think Fell!Sans) where every other word was a curse and she was likely to throw the first punch then laugh as she kicks her enemy while they're down. This was when Reset was a cartoonishly self-centered villain whose goal was simply to prove others wrong. Then Orchid became a sort of sisterly figure. This was short-lived, but she was the one comforting people who Reset would torment, but would ultimately follow his orders, because at this point he was actually a danger and sadistic. And then there was the phase where the story mellowed out and she became the token Goth Girl who, yes she was strong, but was heavy on the 'whatever' energy. Then there was her Era of deep self-loathing and anxiety about her worth that held her back and made her a much more timid and meek character who would only lash out on occasion.

Now, Orchid is the best of those iterations I've written yet. She's calm, level-headed, and a natural leader. Her father raised those traits into her. But she's very reactive, and can be silly, and when she's comfortable it's likely that air of importance transforms into something more comfortable and familiar. She laughs loudly and grins wide, she likes loud video-games but loves to read in the quiet. She's extremely disciplined, and normally no one can get through her tough exterior besides her best friend, Reset. She does what she does for her own enjoyment, sure, but she's thought of every angle and makes her choice to help Reset and control the others with her whole chest. She still worries she won't live up to her invisible expectations, and that and her loyalty are her two driving forces.

I know that Orchid is important to me because she's the longest-running female oc I've had. I have a rough relationship with womanhood/girlhood and I know looking back that Orchid recieved every ounce of my distaste for being a woman that I could shovel into her. That never made her less of a character, she was actually always one of my favorites, and rarely was she a 'punching bag oc'. I just... projected onto her a lot. And she's a good sign of how I've learned who I am. I've decided that my own femininity is something I could live without. I'd rather not associate myself with it, and I'd like to leave it in my past, focusing on a future where I'm not tied down with any gender roles or expectations. That won't happen, but I've come to terms with it myself. Orchid though? I figured out through her that I don't have to hate women characters. My own distaste for my circumstances doesn't mean I have to push it onto my characters (on God I've never expressed anything rude to actual people, that'd be rude as hell and uncalled for, but I have a bad habit of disliking fictional women in media). So, Orchid is a well-roubded character finally. She has motivations abd goals and a *lot* more depth than I ever expected her to. She's happy with being a woman, she's content. She's not treated differently for it in unfair ways by those she cares about, so she doesn't mind it. She likes to wear pretty outfits and lets Reset add bows to her ribbons. She doesn't let being a woman hold her back in the slightest.

So, yeah. Orchid is one of my babies. If I ever leave this Fandom behind for good, she's one that's coming with (Ichor, Orchid, and Pretender all have human designs I can use elsewhere lol-) but in the meantime I'll just rotate her around in my brain for a while longer.

If I'm right, she's been with me for nearly 5-6 years and I went through a *lot* with her as an outlet. So, she's kinda just like an old stuffed animal. A lil ripped, matted fur, maybe a stain or two, but there's a story there and that makes it important beyond belief.

the middle ground after being a suicidal adolescent is truly fucked up like. okay so I learned that there is love in the world actually and I have grown to appreciate the little moments of beauty in my life and now what. I have to like get a job and feed myself and take my medicine every day and like. function? as an adult? it's like. I care enough about my life now to stop actively harming myself in overt ways but not enough to be responsible or sensible or healthy long term. I'm just exactly depressed enough to be able to find moments of joy, but not enough to believe I deserve them forever, and certainly not enough to be motivated into securing more moments of joy in the future. what the fuck am I supposed to do now.

Sometimes I think about borealopelta and start crying from the sheer volume of emotion it stirs within me

there’s gotta be some kind of essay written about self-insert protagonists overwhelmingly experiencing comically extreme bullying/abuse compared to other kinds of protagonist right like why is this

Daily reminder that I am still unapologetically in love with GAP the Series and the amazing characters it gave us.

Young adult/Late teen Big Shot Spamton is funny cause like I can believe a 19-21 year old would make a deal with an eldritch horror if it meant partially escaping the bottom rung of capitalism. Like yeah that sounds legit cause his brain isn’t done cooking and he knows nothing about being an person outside of the goal of success and wouldn’t consider the possible consequences of expediting that process.

Also just the idea of the mansion staff welcoming a new and esteemed guest and it’s like the kid that fucked up their coffee order so bad he was crying before he even served it not a month ago and now he is somehow the CEO of Toyota that lives in the biggest/best suite. Guy still doesn’t fully get how a credit card works but he has 10, no wonder it all went down hill..

Can I pass physics just from theory? Idk derivations or how to solve numericals....

Cbse class 12 2024

♣

look you need 23-24 marks to pass, and if you did good in practicals just passing theory could pull you into the 50s

so to answer your question, yes you can probably pass with just theory provided you can solve at least some of the MCQs which are directly formula based, Assertion Reason questions, the case-based questions which are theoretical and at least 10-12 marks in general will definitely be theory so adding up all that you could probably manage to pass

however if you're planning on giving entrances most cut offs are 60% in science subjects for eligibility and you still have a day so I would suggest going through the derivations and learning as many formulas as you can

just knowing some formulas will really help in MCQs and in numericals even if you cannot solve them just writing the formulas and putting the values will fetch you marks cz of step-marking so try and learn as many formulas as you can, and derivations will help you with not only knowing the formulas but also get you 3-4 marks per question so I suggest you start with that

here, use this

also, go through the graphs, at least 1-2 questions will definitely come either based on graphs or based on "if X increases Y will increase/decrease/remain constant" so knowing a few graphs might be useful
