[hibiscussoupbowl]

I post all my teen wolf thoughts on instagram (i literally have my first watch through on my instagram highlights its history) and i could talk all day abt thiam like idk. Im just saying s6? Shouldve happened and im also saying that the whole arguing but still being one of the best duos in the show ... smts there.

Dont even get me started on the fuckin actors talking abt thiam. Stfu u cant get my hopes up with the line "thiam lore alive and well" fuck off T_T

In s6 i think the biggest thing abt it for me was the asshole x asshole bc the im not dying for u bit? Im sorry what is this sexual tension that has entered this elevator? And in s6a with the im glad u went thru hell???? And theo still having flashbacks to hell??? God talk abt enemies to lovers bro.

This is just abt theo but when i first saw stuff and heard abt theo b4 i even saw him or knew anything abt him i thought the way it would go was theos some weird guy that dresses like kaz and befriends liam and like... observes the pack with him and liam unknowingly gives theo information and he would a cane and a top hat and the pack wouldnt know abt it lmao

[girlwithherheadinthestars]

ever since i was a kid i've had this idea for a book about every single of my favorite characters living together in a mansion. like a sanctuary for heroes on an island where time never passes (like neverland)

it would be such a good book (or even a movie or tv show would be amazing) like it would break every single copyright law in the entire frigging world but imagine imagine.

a support group for People With Terrible Parents (led by percy jackson and adrien agreste)

they take turns leading training sessions in the morning. sometimes it's aelin burning someone's hair off for not doing enough push ups or it's steve rogers giving rigid army training or it's frigging leo valdez who's just like let's chill and listen to music yeah?

and then movie nights where they watch movies made about them and then whenever tony stark sees himself do something dumb in the movie (something he absolute would never dooo like omgg guys this is bs i would never) and he throws popcorn at the screen and shouts booo

and then maybe the younger ones go to school like you have peter parker coming in one night, he slams the door and hollers "I HAVE AN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY TEST TOMORROW" and then annabeth chase, hermione granger, wylan van eck, bruce banner, shuri, they all run down and set up what looks like a war room in the dining room to teach peter all the material in one night.

and then on christmas they have one huge massive tree that they all spent ages decorating together with rhysand fussing about the tiniest details and the tree falling over like seven times because olaf was trying to swing on the branches and then on christmas morning they all wake up and sit in red and green cozy pjs and drink hot cocoa while opening presents.

and all the john green characters go out to stargaze and drink champagne and invite everyone to join.

imagine during parties a random pair finds themselves on the balcony in the cold watching the sea and they have the deepest conversation (picture natasha romanoff and kaz brekker or like lucy gray baird and rapunzel [OMG LUCY GRAY AND RAPUNZEL I NEED THIS DUO TOGETHER PLEASE GOD])

imagine everyone dressing up as each other for halloween. imagine the different areas of the mansion designed to accommodate each individual's personality like moana's room has coral walls and boat memorabilia, inej's room has like a bunch of ropes and high wires and her bed is a hammock suspended from the ceiling.

just imagine them doing cute domestic stuff together like cleaning and arguing and sitting and watch tv at the end of the day.

💀👯📺📚✨🐐🗡️🧇🧨🧤.

You don't have to answer these questions if you don't want to. I hope you are having a lovely day.

I wanna say thank you to @brilligbroilledbooks for coming up with this!

Of course, I want to answer them! Thank you for taking the time to send in the ask! Also, I'm not sure if all the questions are in relation to the Grishaverse??? So I'm just going with whatever...I want lol oops

💀 Favorite villain?

I mean The Darkling was a pretty good goddamn villain but the best ones are when you start to agree with them. When their perspective starts making sense, that's when you know you have a good villain. So with that being said, I guess ... the Joker? I mean the Darkling is a DAMN good villain, so yeah he will always be one of my favourites. But also I love a good female villain so Jennifer Check from Jennifer's Body?

"Jennifer! You're killing people!"

"No, I'm killing boys-"

It really is a cult classic.

��Favorite ships/duos/dynamics (friendships are also ships!)?

Me & Money (lol just kidding...👀), Katniss & Peeta, Nat & Wanda, Nikolai & Zoya, Jesper & Nikolai, Buffy & Faith, Sansa & Dany, Sansa & Margaery. These are all romantic ones though - friendship ones are; Inej & Nina, Genya, Alina & Zoya, Buffy & Willow, and Peeta & Finnick.

📺Favorite tv show quote/scene?

I think would have to be Carmy's scene in The Bear, when he's at the AA meeting and finally opens up. I just related so much, he says he didn't have friends growing up, he had a stutter, never had a girlfriend...here's the scene if you want to watch it. Trigger Warning though! And then at the end of the series ... god I don't want to spoil it for you, but I have never cried and laughed so loudly and so much at the same time.

For Grishaverse -

When Jesper and Kaz are taken to see Dresden (or whatever his name is) but it's really to see Nikolai and just ... god the interaction, the witty banter. Kaz's side eye with Jesper about knowing about him being a durast.

📚 Favorite book quote/scene?

In William Shakespeare's play, 'Much Ado About Nothing,' the scene where Beatrice and Benedick are talking and she yells, "O if I were a man! I would eat his heart in the marketplace!" (Here's the scene if you want to check it out). I got it tattooed actually, except it says "I'll eat his heart in the marketplace." To me, in the play, it means the social constructs are obstructing Beatrice from standing up for her cousin, but my tattoo means ... f*ck the social norm, f*ck tradition - I can and I will call anyone out. Let me know if anyone wants to see the tattoo... if no one cares, that's totally chill as well lol

For Grishaverse -

My favourite quote would be Genya talking about her abuse from the King. It's so much more hard-hitting than in the tv show. I cried and cried while reading it. Because I think the King was still alive, and she got to say it to his face while Nikolai was there as well.

✨Which Grisha order would you belong to?

Oh my god! I'm always thinking about this. On one hand, I would love to be a summoner, but one that doesn't exist - I wanna be the main character like that tehe oops. But then again, being a durast would come in handy!!! But then there's also being a Heartrender, and no one can survive without their heart so I just want to be the most powerful 👀

🐐Who/what is your emotional support goat?

Jesper - whenever I feel overwhelmed, I'm like 'Jesper would be laughing right now, I need to chill.' But also my pets - Baloo (my lab cross rottie) and Silly (my cat who is currently asleep on my bed). Also...The Hunger Games series is my emotional support movies??? I think that says a lot about me ...

🗡️Wraith, what are your knives' names? (Moral principles that you value - yes, also name the knives)

I would name my knives like they name their swords in Game of Thrones.

Maiden Death

Fate's End

Vicious Hope

...Bad Luck

My moral principles are:

Everyone is equal and has equal opportunities (except for those who have done unforgivable things - that's a whole other discussion).

I think we should Eat the Rich - no one needs that much money

Water should always be free - everywhere

Abortions need to be legal and accessible (everywhere and without hassle)

Religion has no place in government

Marriage equality is an obvious yes - I can't believe we're still arguing about this

Guns need to be banned

Education is free, yes that includes university degrees

Medical care also needs to be free as well

Okay so that turned into opinions rather than principles...

🧇Heartrender, if you had to betray your country for food what would it be?

Okay so I don't know if you guys have these outside of Australia but we have these chocolate bars called Picnics. They're a wafer covered in caramel, then nuts with Cadbury chocolate. They're what waffles are to Nina - I would eat these for the rest of my life. I can easily eat a bag of 12 in less than 30 minutes. They're ... delectable. I'm actually eating them right now ahahah oh my god

🧨Demo-expert, how do you code your experiments? (Favorite hobby)

My fav hobby is ... this. It's this account, writing for you guys, making moodboards, researching astrology signs, mbti, pair ups, headcanons. This, as well as learning about witchcraft and tarot. Reading, and extending my writing abilities.

🧤Dirtyhands, what's your weakness?

Um... being ridiculed/insulted. But also talk sh*t get hit amirite ladies?! I think it's being rejected, looked down on, and thought of as disgusting. That's my weakness. But if we're talking...how would the enemy get me to do anything, it would probably be kidnaping my family???

[scalproie]

GOD I just want to say I absolutely love your tekken analyses and how you understand the dang game and all the plot lines and ideas it squanders bc it just can’t be arsed to write a proper game. Which sucks bc it has ALLLL the makings of an excellent storyline but it just. Fails. Even though everything is laid out there. And ofc your objectively correct takes and knowledge of kazuya who still gets mischaracterized and simplified in the fandom to mine and other kaz stans’ frustrations. seriously tho seeing someone else who Gets this man is so relieving and cathartic tbh 👍👍👍👍

THANK YOUUUUUU💖💖💖 THE WORST STORIES ARE STORIES THAT ARE BAD BUT COULD BE GOOD AND UNFORTUNATELY THEY COMPEL ME SO...

The bad storytelling of tekken obv comes from the fact that it's a fighting game and if it were any other form of media, there would be a lot more cohesion in its themes and character arcs. Hell, look at Bloodline, while not perfect by any means it still has a lot of really good elements in it despite being basically a glorified ova of an hour and 20min-ish.

I 💖 tragic character figures and boy do I get my fair share of that in this father and son duo so they latched onto my brain like crazy and its always super recomforting to see that I'm not doing them any injustice, especially receiving the stamp of approval from The Kazuya Enjoyer themself 😊

[argikiya]

First of all, Shadow and Bone season 2 released on the most unfortunate time and in between my exams, but today was the last one and me and my non existent self-control have managed to binge watch it. And I have finally made up my mind about what to think of this new season.

I saw a post that said that for the book readers the series is like a very well written fanfiction. I obviously loved the books but it is like seeing your favorites from a different point of view, and I can’t say that I did not enjoy it.

What I loved: Even though they changed a lot of plotline and the character relationships I think they did justice to the characters and for some made them more interesting. Like most of us can agree Mal and Alina is quite a bland ship, though it remains the same, but Mal’s character in here is way better than the books. Mainly I like his change of story line in the last episode, it was quite interesting. Kaz’s backstory was shown pretty well. His trauma and past was touching and not just another random backstory. Next is the Darkling. I think his character has a lot of depth than the books. His last monologue was my favorite. In the books he is kind of like a pure evil character but here he is more of a perfect grey character and I appreciate this change. As for Wesper, even though I loved the slow burn romance, I very much enjoyed the speed-run. It’s like we get to know more of their relationship after Crooked Kingdom but for those who haven’t read the book I don’t know what they thought of it. I can only recommend them to go and read the books.

The Little things: I loved the little interactions between Inej and Alina. Inej's the cool as fuck action scenes OH MY GOD. The Crows saving everyone’s ass. Wylan saving the crow’s ass. Zoyalai interactions. All the Kanej moments from the books had me screaming. I love the angst. Tolya and Tamar, the coolest duo. Mathias😭

I hated: Mostly these are also the little things. Inej’s backstory, I don’t think they are going to show it more but it would have put more dynamic in her character. Kaz already telling he is looking for her family. NO! You were supposed to surprise her with it Kaz. Nina did not get a lot of action in the second half, she was mostly injured here and there. Kaz and Nikolai interactions was not supposed to go like that. And let's not talk about Genya and David just yet.

What’s next: I can only guess they are going to focus on King of Scars and Six of Crows, if there is a next season (can’t put my faith in netflix), and I guess Wylan’s backstory and his father will be kind of main plot of it, which I am very eager to see.

Honestly the first trilogy(s&b) is not the best installment of the Grishaverse and there is lot of potential in the plot and the characters if they change it correctly and I hope the changes would not be disappointing, while the SoC plotline and character dynamic is kind of perfect, so the less they change on that the better. And lastly, the last cliffhanger had me very intrigued for what comes next.

[suuho]

Hey Kaz, i really love your thoughts on seventeen. So im wondering if you have any for Vernon's ships? I love that guy so i was surprised to find out that he doesn't really have any popular fic other than verkwan. Which is a pity since he has many interesting dynamic with the other members

first of all, sorry this is so late! life got in the way, yada yada yada, but here we are!! so, huh, vernon ships. why not go by them one by one?

vernon and scoups: i don't have many feelings towards them; they are clearly friends to me, brothers at that, and they get along well enough. i do love that they're the oldest and youngest of their respective units, though. that always makes things fun.

vernon and jeonghan: that is so funny to me, to be honest. they are both such uncanny communicators with opposing energies that i feel like it is partly the reason why we see them so rarely together, just the two of them. interesting dynamic, tho. in, like, theory.

vernon and joshua: rocket line! one of my favorite seventeen units EVER. i honestly think they should do a full duo album, maybe when the members enlist. love that pop punk sound they had going for them on 2 minus 1, but i also love rocket a lot. they fascinate me endlessly, to be honest. i always love to see a new yorker and a californian interact.

vernon and jun: so interesting to me. vernon is super drawn to minghao, so i always find it peculiar when he instead singles out jun or vice versa.

vernon and hoshi: they used to be roommates, which is just insane to me. like, think about that? but in a way, you can tell they were because they get along in a quiet and sensible manner that can only exist because you've shared close quarters with someone, no matter how (un)willingly.

vernon and wonwoo: one of my favorite dynamics in the entire group. they are both extremely introverted, they are the heart and soul of the hip hop dynamic, i love seeing them together because visually they are both just absolutely stunning. i love watching them hang out together. much like wonwoo and jihoon, these two compliment each other really and have a quiet understanding of one another, vernon is just way more laid back than jihoon could ever be. this is two, low energy level individuals interacting with each other, and i love them for it. also, they are bad bitches. to me, anyways.

vernon and jihoon: best friends. my favorite vernon dynamic by FAR. yes, they are both my biases in the group and yes, that does make me indeed biased, but i don't care. vernon is jihoon's closest confidante in terms of song writing and production (besides bumzu ofc), they genuinely get along REALLY well, they have been roommates on tour for ages to this day. jihoon takes care of vernon and vernon understands jihoon. i love them so much, oh my god, like you can just tell that they are very close friends. one of the best friendships in the entire group and i hate that no one pays attention to them. they just love hanging out with each other and i love that for them.

vernon and minghao: oh, whew. verhao... my god, what a can of worms. all i am saying is, that verhao should have and be what verkwan is. in fact, verhao IS what people think verkwan is. vernon is drawn to minghao like a moth to a flame, and minghao loves to play coy with him, while he also takes a lot of care of vernon. idk, i just love them together. maybe the vernon dynamic with the most chemistry.

vernon and mingyu: i love them. i just. i feel like it's hard to explain what i see in them, but whenever they interact, i feel so giddy. there's something special to vernon and mingyu. if you get it, you get it.

vernon and dk: the 218s! i love our 218s. it is so funny, because they have very opposing characters, but it is honestly just a classic mash up of sunshine (dk) and tsundere (vernon), one of the oldest tropes in the books, which we just love. they are both unhinged in different ways. the main rapper and main vocalist of svt, baby!!!

vernon and seungkwan: i mean, do i think that verkwan is overrated? yes. they have none of the romantic chemistry people claim they have and i do absolutely not understand how it survived for this long? what are people seeing here? but, i do love their dynamic as friends. it reminds me of me and my close friends.

vernon and dino: these two just bring me so much joy. i seriously would die for the entire svt maknae line, no joke. and vernon and dino are also unhinged, but in more alike ways. another one of those complex dynamics that doesn't make sense on first glance, but that you feel could be the foundation of something brilliant.

Get To Know Me: Friendships

tagged by the lovely @winterlovesong1 thank you!! 💜

rules: name at least five platonic relationships you love, each from a different fandom.

1) The Crows (aka My Crows) / Six of Crows & Sab

It's the found family of it all for me, but mostly the fact that every relationship within that group is iconic af. Don't get me started about Kaz and Nina being the absolute best worsties. Don't talk to me about Jesper and Inej. Wylan and Matthias being the newbies judging the crows until they realize these are the best companions they could ever hope for. Inej and Nina and all their small rescues. Matthias begrudgingly learning to respect and admire Kaz. Jesper and Nina. Wylan worrying about Inej and deciding to stay until they get her back. Kaz and Jesper being brothers. I love all of my crows and I love how much they all love one another. They are simply perfect, I'll take no criticism about this

2) Lucy/George/Lockwood / Lockwood & Co

Ding ding ding, found family my beloved strikes again. What's better than living with your partner and technically your boss and risking your life with them every day? Nothing, that's what. I simply adore trios in general and it's such a delicate balance to write, but this trio is perfect. Each of them believes themselves to be the normal one bringing balance to the other two and I adore that because they each bring something very specific to the table: Lucy, with her emotional maturity and intelligence; Lockwood and his bravery and skillful leadership; George with his cleverness and his humor. They're best friends and they're a family and George will be best man at their wedding and godfather to their daughter and still their friendship will never waver.

3) Alex Stern & Pamela Dawes / Ninth House

My girls!!! My beautiful badass baby girls. If Ninth House made me love them, then Hell Bent made me go 'this is my ride or die favorite friendship'. Literally Dawes is Sunshine and Alex Midnight Rain and I love them. The love is so potent!!! They think they're opposites at first but truly they're both made of steel.

4) The Bus Kids: fitzskimmons / Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

God, I miss my tiny babies!!! I just adore these three together but also the duos within the trio. Inseparable fitzsimmons even without the romantic aspect, fresh out of the Academy, one brain, one heart; Jemma and Skye ("I already have one sister and her name is Jemma Simmons"), Fitz and Daisy when she feels like her entire world is falling apart and he's the one reminding her that who she is is perfect and doesn't need fixing. My most special children.

5) Weller & Patterson / Blindspot

I just love the big brother/little sister vibe between these two. It's another example of found family, no surprise there, but I think that out of all the relationships, this is the one that stuck the most with me over the years. It's the little things: how much he believes in her, how small she looks in his arms, how fierce and feral she is to defend him. Guess I'm gonna have to rewatch the whole show now and get back in that spiral.

[in-my-feels-probably]

Hey! I have no idea if this is bathe right place lol

Congrats on 1k!!

Can I request option 2 for the Grishaverse, platonic if you don’t mind!

-My pronouns are he/they/she

- I mostly listen to PTV, MCR, Cavetown, and Beach Bunny

- My fashion style mostly revolves around all black, platforms, and oversized clothes, but I really like long coats and capes.

- I’m pretty awkward lol

- In terms of physical appearance, im average height i guess (??) and i have a grown out buzz cut with medium brown hair and blue eyes.

- I literally do not know how to shut up if you ask me about something I like

- I can hold a grudge for YEARS

- honors burnout… lol

Thanks and congrats!

hi!

thank you for participating :)

i ship you (platonically) with jesper!

he'd think you're so cool omg. just based off your style alone, he'd immediately be intrigued by you. he cares a lot about his own style and appearance, so he'd appreciate someone else who cares about their own fashion. not that its a huge deal or anything, he just likes feeling confident in himself, and would understand you dressing for the same reason. no idea what your sexuality is, and i dont mean to assume, but you sound liike just based off appearances, you're part of the lgbt+ community. you two would look so fashionable (and queer) next to the group, and such a chaotic duo.

oh god, the group would not get a moments rest with you two together. you could talk about anything and everything, and you would. jesper loves hearing himself talk, but hes so effortlessly funny and charismatic that people let him. he needs someone who can match his level of banter, and you could. it literally wouldn't matter what you were talking about, he'd just enjoy talking to you. you'd defnitely drive kaz mad if you were paired up together for anything, but even he would be amused every once in a while.

jesper knows all about the honors burnout. he didn't even make it out of university. he decided his talents are better used elsewhere, and would understand if you did the same.

the grudge thing might get in the way of your time together. with how sarcastic he is, he might piss you off every once in a while. and he's too proud to say he's sorry, at least for a while. he'd start doing random things to earn your favor back, but it would amuse you to just let him keep trying, even when you weren't mad anymore. one day, he'd get so sick of it that he'd crack. pluz, kaz would get sick of jesper's whining, and make him apologize to you so jesper would leave him alone.

"kaz talks more than this! i'm dying over here, come on. please?" he'd ask, and you'd fight to hide your grin.

"who says i want to talk to you?"

"you know you do," he'd muse, breaking out in a smile as you finally talked to him. "come on, its been a day already. are you going to make me get down on my knees and beg?"

you couldn't hide your grin any longer. "that would be a sight. go on, then."

he'd pout, shaking his head. "come on! will you just get over it and come with me? kaz gave me a job, and i can't be expected to go my own way in silence. really, it's detrimental on my health. will you please just come? we can bother kaz later with our findings."

you'd roll your eyes, chuckling. "fine. if you're gonna be a baby about it. i guess i'll relieve you of your suffering."

"yes!' he'd cheer, already in better spirits. "i'll come up with a better apology next time. lets go!'

he'd already be heading out the door before you could scold him. "next time? why does there have to be a next time?' just behave!"

--

so sorry for the wait! i hope you enjoyed this :)

[sillyfudgemonkeys]

to get right to the salt, do ya think P5 and the spinoffs lowkey ruined theorizing for ya? at least for atlus games?

Damn beat me to it! I was thinking of making a post bitching about how stupid it was to that we had to leave Sae's dungeon because of a "blockade" but like....that area is open to the public why is there a blockade???? TT0TT You just wanted a blockade for blockade's sake. Would've made more sense to have Mako do something at the house than the fucking court room you dinguses. orz*coughs* Moving on......

Anyway happy new year!

Yes and.....no. For both.

P5's made it hard to want to keep theorizing with P5 central games. P3R is in a spot of "why even bother, I'm setting myself up for more disappointment if I do." I had absolutely no want and desire to theorize P5T (even P5S I had SOME thoughts, but the Sophia char, you know being based off an aeon being, not getting the Aeon arcana.....kinda killed it for me. :'D PQ2 was a diff issue, tho it came out before P5S iirc so it was before P5 killed it, and P3/5D didn't have much to theorize over....P3D a bit more so but only by a bit, and P5R....well P5R gave me SOMETHING to work with at least). I think the most I wanted to do with P5T was figure out the place in the timeline exactly (which is something I love to do :3) and if it was going to have a memory wipe. Other than that nothing really.....stood out to me. TT0TT

I am interested in P5X and have a theory post buried somewhere (mostly it showing it's an alt reality, tho I subscribe to it REPLACING P5 rather than it being part of certain P5 endings). I'm just having a hard time keeping up with all the info atm so I don't talk about it.

Right now it's a waiting game for P5X to release and the announcements after P3R. (obvie excited for Refan but I'm talking about predictions and stuff and I'm not really doing that for Refan cause....I dunno what to expect TT0TT)

But as for P5(X) theories I have one now:

Timelines of P5. P5 has the original vanilla, the Kasumi version, and (Cognition?) Wonder ganking him. I'm thinking it's Cognition bc the one "Joker" That fought Wonder evaporates and it might mean it's a cognition of some sort (god I hope it is, I want P5X to have it's own timeline). But that's all I've got, I need to catch up on older stuff cause I'm not sure if this contradicts other existing info (then again info keeps changing atm, such as the 109 building TT0TT).

C!Joker I believe says "resist" to Wonder at the end of the new trailer (going off the chinese char, I don't think I'm hearing the Japanese correctly tbh). It makes me wonder (hehe) if Silly's about to get her 3rd star crossed lovers-ish/trans dimensional timeline pairing/duo (first Tats and Maya, then Hams and Mints/Kita, and now Joke and Wond 8U)

As for in general, not really, I've just been busy/needing to consume/refresh more of certain media before I find myself more comfortable to talk about it. But here's some theories I have that fit this description but I know the fandoms will kill me for reasons. (spoilers for Bleach, Naruto/Boruto, Frozen, Netflix's Wednesday 2022, Far Cry 5, Ju-On/The Grudge):

Bleach 1: I'm subscribed that the "happy ending" they got at the end isn't actually happy (despite the surface level). Because unlike Kishi, I think Kubo is a mean troll. TT0TT I don't think anyone won with him. Anyway, my theory is Ich*ka isn't R*nji's daughter because the ONLY aspect she has of him atm is his hair color and that's something that can be dyed. 030 And that Kaz*ui is some weird clone of Ichigo rather than a real son (the only thing of Oreo he has that Ichi doesn't, bc they both have orange hair and brown eyes......BUT Ichi had the same eye shape as a child so......even that can't be ONLY tied to Oreo TT0TT). Kaz*ui is a little monster I don't trust him. Plus that ominous opening in the Hell chapter w/the gold fish, him sending a soul to hell, and then stomping out Ya-badaba (Yawach? Idc.....)....I just don't trust him, and Kubo's a troll so :'D Whatever hurts the fandom the most I guess.

Bleach 2: I don't think Kubo has positive feelings the Tanabata, or at least it's mythos. I mean it's about two star crossed lovers who fail to do their job and that's why they are separated. TT0TT Between I*H receiving L after L in the series (like confirming Ichi didn't have feelings for Oreo until after the series was over, White attacking her and so on), both do fail to do their job (fighting off Yawach-ababa, both get stomped before someone else has to come in and help iirc, anyway a very twisted parallel off of Tanabata), but her also wanting to BE THE RAIN to connect heaven and earth. You know. Rain. The representation of Ichi (and Ruki's) depression. Rain. The thing that keeps the lovers apart in Tanabata.......WHY???? TT0TT (also the fact they end up together even tho it's a star crossed lovers story, and when that couple WAS together they were doing a bad job with their jobs which meant they NEEDED to be separated and...I dunno man I don't trust Kubo he's mean kfljaskfljsdl)

Naruto/Boruto 1: Sarada is actually Karin's daughter, but Kishi is too scared to go that route/not as mean of a troll as Kubo is....atm. (At least Kishi had the guts to admit he wanted a love triangle/considered N*S for a brief second, but just didn't have the chops to make the love/triangle aspects more focused in the story. Aka I don't blame N*S for being tricked by his red herrings). I dunno he keeps giving the S*S couple L after L after L I'm wondering if he's trying to ease more people into the idea of SK. TT0TT

Naruto/Boruto 2: this is what I think the Kaguya line looks like (aka where the Gold/Silver bros and Kimimaro's Kaguya clan fall, cause I haven't seen a tree like this, and The G/S bros could totes be from Indra's side tho. But I firmly believe the Kaguya clan is from Indra, since I think the madness they went through could be similar to the Curse of Hatred)

4. Naruto/Boruto 3 (I'm in the middle of a Naruto rewatch sue me TT0TT): What I think the eye evolution looks like (I don't think the Jogan's been explained yet? I still need to catch up, the byakugan doesn't evolve into a Rinnesharingan, it's that they obtain it later along with rinnegan's too in some of the designs, but I was mostly looking at Kaguya's since that's what most of these are derived from, Rinne can become Rinneshar aka you gotta activate it kinda like Sharingan to MS but it still requires you to evolve it):

5. Frozen theory 1: Ahtohallan is not a good place. It's constantly putting Elsa into danger (either Ahto it'self, or it's ways of making her look into the past). It's almost killed her twice: Once in F2 by going too deep and almost freezing, and once in the dubious canon sequel novel Polar Nights where she falls into a raging river and Anna has to jump in to save her TT0TT It also seems so good at driving a wedge between the sisters >_> Cause that's totally what they need >_>

6. Frozen theory 2: Partially related to the above, because of Ahto's influence, I think Elsa will slowly evolve into the Snow Queen from the original fairy tale. Unless Anna can rescue her that is. TT0TT

7. Frozen Theory 3: Oldie but a goodie, Anna has powers. It's super strength. Be it yeeting a bust, punching a grown man in the face w/o recoil, full swinging a bat lute into a wolf's face w/o recoil, easily tanking hits from a horse/falling down the stairs/falling off a cliff/Elsa's Ice magic, literally pulling her sister out of a RAGING RIVER (Polar Nights only, I'm pretty sure it was raging I don't care to look it up again). They need to play into this more as a running gag tbh. "Oh she's the normal sister *lifts up a insanely heavy object with ease* Yup totally super normal, so sad. :(" jkldjsfkajf

8. Wednesday 1: In the original comic stripped canon of Addams' Family, her brother (then unnammed) was titled a "Hyde" in his character description. I feel like that's going to come into play in the later seasons (esp with how much mystery is around the "hydes")

9. FC5 (I think this is confirmed in other entries, but it was my theory as I was playing): Faith is also a victim via drugging and brainwashing. They physically and chemically fucked with her head. Like the other cult members that are brainwashed similar to her, if they detox they'd realized how much of a fucked situation they are in. TT0TT I also like to think she's out there, alive. In some bunker. TT0TT

10. Ju-On/The Grudge: I prefer to think Takeo killed Toshio. I know the US ver made it more explicit that he did. But I also mean the OG Jpn vers (I know one of the novels might contradict this theory). It just makes more sense for Toshio to die at the same time/the same way as his cat (and we see what's implied to be the cat in the movie). I mean their souls are merged for crying out loud! And IF Kayako was involved, it was maybe to deliver a mercy kill for her son, after Takeo left him for dead (similar to Kayako). And maybe she didn't want him to experience the same slow death she did. I know it kinda implies all the evil is on Takeo and less on Kayako (oh no shocker I hate the guy who started it all, at least Kayako wasn't a killer until the curse was made u_u) in this case, but I just want the soul merging to make sense is all. TT0TT

Annnnnnd yeah I think those are all/most of the eh theories I have going on. Again I need to rewatch most of this stuff (well except Frozen/Wednesday/Juon klsjfdkljafjsa I'm good on those). My issue with Naruto and Bleach is how much of/what of the supplementary content is canon. TT0TT And if Anime original, what about if the creator approves of it *glares at Kubo* I've seen your likes and comments you little stinker. Let alone if it's crafted by the creator (RTN/The Last/Boruto Movie, tho RTN I've heard contradicts some of the manga's events TT0TT) Like I'm trying to fine tooth comb this stuff but lkdjflksjfja orz

My thoughts on Netflix's Shadow and Bone as someone who's never read Shadow and Bone:

- I love this little thing going on between Mal and Alina. Very cute. Best friends to lovers. Love it

- Kaz is a very cool character. I think I remember hearing about him. He was the one people like? I can kinda see why.

- The names are so cool. Big fan of these fantasy names.

- DUDE ALINA WAS THE LIGHT PERSON I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN

- Kirigan hot af not gonna lie. Willing to risk it all for this guy. God I hope he doesn't turn out to be a bad guy or something.

- WAIT DOES HE AND ALINA GET TOGETHER! Ngl I like that bc isn't he the decesdant of the dark person and then Alina's the light person. I'm a sucker for that kind of duo. (I literally cannot remember the names for the dark or light person I'm sorry to those fans out there who are screaming at me)

- The aesthetic is just so nice. I'm obsessed.

-Thought this show was gonna bore me but now I'm thinking I'm gonna spend my weekend binge watching it. It's so good!!!

Note: only watched the first episode and like ten minutes of the second but already enamored by this series

The next week, Kaz is on the news again, gaining media coverage as reporters continue to update the public on his appearances at several different planets. It seems he's doing his monthly check-in with Senators and leaders he's secured trade deals with, while also seeking out new deals simultaneously.

Coruscant is on his list, published with Galin's permission.

"It appears the King of Mandalore will be stopping by our very own inner cities of Coruscant within the next few days- so everyone look out for him and his trusty dragon. We are unsure if his pet will be with him, but the two are quite bonded by now, according to some sources."

"Galin Hardri will also be making his public appearances with the King this week, a duo that followers of the Mandalorians have come to identify as their 'favorite'. Watch the skies and maybe, if you're lucky, the two of them will stop into a caf shop near you," the reporter teases with a wink before the video ends.

I’m reading in the window of my favorite cafe when I see him come in. God.

I forgot how tall he was.

I return my eyes to my book and continually tell myself not to look back over.
