would i trust skz with my grades 
chan - i’d trust him with an rrl & doing a data gathering session on his own and that’s the highest compliment i could give someone tbvh the level of reliability and resourcefulness is so *chef’s kiss* this boy would NEVER fail you will carry his weight in the group and goes the extra mile even when he’s not the group leader because honestly iSN’T THAT WHAT GROUPMATES ARE SUPPOSED TO DO also he prolly also likes the library for summ reason like i like the library too i like actually looking at books for work and not just sitting there to stare at my laptop and hoard the air conditioning & electric sockets but he does it w/o hesitation like he gets in there and actually looks for books for the paper and that’s admirable shit right there canonically i have a crush on college campus heartthrob chan in all of his soft boy senior who’s kind to everyone forms and i think we should just discuss this
minho - we’d prolly fight once during brainstorming bc he suggested the one (1) wild ass topic proposal & thesis statement that the thesis adviser surprisingly liked (?) like GETS in a topic proposal there’s usually the underdeveloped topic the group just threw in there bc y’all could dream LOL, the topic everyone ACTUALLY likes and wants to do, and the filler topic that’s so wild but for summ reason gets the adviser’s attention like he suggests the THIRD one and it’s gonna spark a mini fist fight but it’s cool lee minho lee know is smart he knows what he’s doing 
changbin - he seems like ur 2 am google docs buddy where you know the one where all of your classmates have gone to take short naps & promised to come back at 4 am to finish their parts or just straight up SKIPPED on writing the paper the night before the deadline & the two of you like gave up halfway to communicate & consistently update each other via chat just so now you’re just competing over who’s gonna leave the website first ALSO IDK he reminds me of that one guy on twt who like hovered their gdocs cursor over their crush’s and said something like we were holding hands on gdocs im sorry my humor’s encountering an error atm
hyunjin - starbucks study buddy who’d fight u for the seat near the electric socket and will prolly be too chatty all throughout the thing like you just want to SUMMARIZE THIS LONG ASS ARTICLE IN PEACE but hyunjin’s sitting across from you while he’s typing obnoxiously loud and fast on his laptop while also scrolling thru his insta dump on his phone and showing you the latest tea on ur grpmates who refuse to do their parts sdhfksld but he’ll treat u to wings for lunch after bc u deserve it later dont get mad at him !!!! 
jisung - i’d pick him in class bc i can’t do public speaking to save my life, im too shy to approach people for surveys & interviews, i hate computer shops (!!!) and bc every stressed out research group needs a bubbly moodmaker to balance out the lack of optimism in getting a passing grade might also hav a crush on him if he dresses up extra on thesis defense day im just sayin like jisung in a kinda wrinkled button up he forgot to iron before coming to school in the color ur grpmates agreed to color-coordinate for ur presentation plus black blazer + slacks combo and then MESSY FLOOFY HAIR bc it’s just u & the scariest profs in ur department he doesn’t need to slick his hair up but it’s sooo adorable wtf u want me to treat u to iced coffee after this sTAY RIGHT THERE IM GOING TO TIM HORTON’S 
felix - i’ll end up doing most of the work for him not bc he’s lazy or deadweight (aka the usual reasons why i’m always overworked in a researched group) but bc i’m whipped for him like omg baby just go and cook the pancit canton for the group and rest i’ll do ur work for yOU ARE YOU HAVING DIFFICULTY UNDERSTANDING THE SOURCE MATERIAL DO I HAVE TO PUNCH THE SOURCE MATERIAL FOR YOU I GOT YOU OKAY 
seungmin - 100% no questions asked i’d trust him with my life in a life-threatening situation ofc i’d trust him with my grades he’ll prolly turn up to ur grp meetings w his resources ready and a sorta clear ide aon what to do alr like that’s HOT but more importantly i’d also trust him w ranting abt deadweight groupmates he’d prolly be that one (1) trustworthy groupmate of urs who’s also like super sassy n goes omg just remove their names from the title page if they dont want to do their work !!! then actually tells ur deadweight grpmates off after bc injustice ???? i wont stand for it !!!! 
jeongin - idk why jeongin exudes that classmate who has a decent printer that the entire class takes advantage of for a whole semester it’s prolly why he’s late to class all the time or coming to school haggard with all the stacks of paper he has to carry (until he decided one day to just fuck it and bring the printer to school) like bruh just make it a business also that one classmate of urs who’s like literally running all the time bc ur class is in one building, the campus library’s on the OTHER SIDE, and the conference room for the thesis defense is on a whole ‘nother planet and he gets the unfortunate task of transferring the final research paper copies and escorting groups to the thesis panel pls save him my poor bby lemme buy u iced coffee

I’m currently working on two other fics at the moment, but this one wouldn’t leave me alone today. I figured it might be nice to dip back into the Hero’s Cuties AU, especially around this time of year~ For those of you who might not be familiar with the AU (looking at YOU, new followers! :DD), it’s set in the real world and not in the arcade/video game universe. 
Without further ado, my lovelies, I present some holiday-themed fluff starring our favorite fixer and his gorgeous gal. ❀
It doesn’t matter if a holiday is involved or not. Felix never passes up an opportunity to jazz things up somehow. For Halloween that included tons of candy, a homemade pumpkin pie, and a trip to a hokey haunted house attraction. She should have expected that he would try to do the same thing around Christmastime.
- - - 
“How’s that coffee tastin’, hon?”
Tamora waits until she’s finished drinking and lowers the festive cup away from her mouth. “Like overpriced, commercialized consumerism,” she deadpans. 
Felix, who was expecting a different answer entirely, glances down at his own cup in confusion. They’re not really the type of people to have hot beverages outside of their cozy apartments, but it’s a chilly morning and they’re out and about in town. It just felt right to stop by the local Starbucks and start their day with warm, happy tummies.
When it becomes clear that Felix is thinking too much on what she said, Tamora rephrases her previous statement into a less sarcastic set of words. “It’s decent.”
That perks Mr. Sunshine and Daisies right up. “Glad to hear it!”
He goes for another sip of his lidless hot chocolate, and when he pulls away there’s a patch of whipped cream on the end of his nose. It’s so painfully childlike (and cute) that Tamora is absolutely unable to leave it where it is.
Rather than wipe it away with her coat sleeve or a napkin, she motions him closer, leans across the small table, and brushes her lips against the rounded end of Felix’s nose, clearing it of the spot.
Felix squeaks in surprise, and by the time Tamora pulls away he’s blushing a bright and rosy red. She sure ain’t shy when it comes to public displays of affection, and while that’s something he’s come to know over the course of their relationship, it’s still a bit startling when she just goes for it all willy-nilly and unabashed.
“You’re welcome,” Tamora says, nodding down at Felix’s hot chocolate.
He takes the cue and looks down at it as well, seeing the indent he made in the whipped cream. Doesn’t take a lot of common sense to figure out what happened from there (whoops). Just as Felix goes to thank her for cleaning him up, Tamora breezes into the next topic as abruptly as she always does.
“So, what’s on the agenda for today?”
“Well,” Felix starts, holding his cup between his hands. “I thought we could have ourselves a look at some of the decorations they got set up around here. It’s our first Christmas together, so I wanna make sure it’s extra special for us.”
Of course you do, Tamora thinks. It doesn’t matter if a holiday is involved or not. Felix never passes up an opportunity to jazz things up somehow. For Halloween that included tons of candy, a homemade pumpkin pie, and a trip to a hokey haunted house attraction. She should have expected that he would try to do the same thing around Christmastime.
“And then, dependin’ on how long we stay out, maybe we can head on over to that indoor ice skatin’ rink,” Felix continues. He takes a second to rub at the back of his neck when a sheepish thought occurs to him. “Eee-ooh-boy. I haven’t ice skated in years. I’m probably a little rusty.”
Tamora shrugs and goes back to drinking her coffee. “That’s longer than I have. I’ve never been.”
Felix shields a surprised (and slightly scandalized) gasp behind his hand. “Never? Oh my land, Tammy. We gotta fix that! It’s a little tricky at first, I’ll admit, but once you get the hang of it it’s pretty fun.”
Tamora mulls over what Felix said. Ice skating isn’t something she planned on doing—that day or ever, really—but Felix looks so hopeful, and so eager, and—yup. They’re going ice skating.
“You talked me into it,” she concedes, just as he takes her hand in his. “There’s just one condition.”
Felix brings Tamora’s slender fingers to his lips and kisses the back of them tenderly; his blue eyes are practically overflowing with adoration as he asks: “What’s that now?”
“If I go down,” Tamora tells him, grabbing the end of his chin. “You’re going down with me.”
—
Luckily for them the ice skating rink isn’t very busy when they get there later that afternoon. There’s a few families, a small group of teenagers, and two or three couples. Felix makes sure to lace up Tamora’s skates for her nice and tightly, so that she questions whether or not they’re actually cutting off the circulation in her ankles. She waits for him to do the same to his own skates, and once they’re both good to go Felix stands up and looks down at her. 
His cheeks and ears are flushed from the cold, and his blue argyle sweater is the epitome of dorky, but Tamora has never loved someone so fiercely or deeply.
“Ready, sweet pea?” he asks, holding out his hand.
Tamora takes it firmly. “Let’s do this.”
Standing up with the skates on isn’t so bad, but walking on the thin blades is definitely weird and disorientating. Tamora does her best not to wobble as she and Felix make their way to the rink. Felix steps onto the ice first, and before she can do the same he politely suggests:
“Tell you what. Let me get a feel for this again, and then I’ll come back to help you. Okay? That way there’s less of a chance of the both of us fallin’ all over creation.”
Temporarily leaving her, Felix glides onto the ice and tries to remember the basics. Tamora watches as he takes smaller, careful strides around the rink until they become longer and more confident. So much for being ‘rusty’. The guy’s a natural. 
Felix waves to her as he passes by a second time, and when he comes back around he’s ready to show her the ropes. “My lady,” he proclaims, reaching for her hand again.
Tamora takes it and steps onto the ice as gracefully as she can (which isn’t very gracefully at all, because that’s just not the kind of person she is). Not being in control is something she’s never liked, which explains why she immediately grips the barrier when her feet start to slide sideways without her consent.
“It’s alright,” Felix reassures gently, encouragingly. “You’re doing great, honest! Just take it nice an’ slow. We’re not in any hurry.”
They might not be in a hurry, but it seems like everyone around them is (especially the little kid who keeps weaving through the other skaters without a care in the world). Tamora tries to ignore the youngster as she moves with Felix along the edge of the rink. When she feels like she isn’t going to fall on her face and eat ice, she slowly lets go of the barrier and lets her arm extend out to make up for her lack of balance.
“There we go!” Felix praises, pleased as punch that Tamora is catching onto ice skating so quickly. He knew that she would.
By the time they’re halfway around the rink Tamora reels in her arm and tries not to look down at her skates as she moves forward; her hand has yet to unclasp itself from Felix’s, but it has loosened from the death grip she originally had on it. Ice skating isn’t crazy difficult, but she’s not sure if she’d make it a regular thing. Not unless Felix was really itching to go for whatever reason.
They complete their first lap, and then a second, before Felix figures that a short break might be good since it’s Tamora’s first time and he doesn’t want her to overdo it. He leads them back over to the entrance and towards the bench they’d occupied when they were lacing up their skates. Sitting down, Felix turns to Tamora eagerly.
“Now you can say that you’ve ice skated,” he states, and then presses on, “golly, I feel honored that it was with me. Makes me feel kinda special that I got to experience it with you.”
Tamora doesn’t think it’s a huge deal, but she humors Felix and his big, soft heart anyway; it’s hard not to when he wears it on his sleeve, open and vulnerable for the world to see. She wants to protect it. She wants to protect him. 
“You’re not a bad teacher,” she points out, watching as Felix’s already flushed cheeks darken to a bashful shade.
“All in a day’s work, ma’am,” he laughs, scooting a closer to her on the bench. When he can reach without craning over too much, he kisses Tamora on the lips sweetly. “I’m real excited to spend the holidays with you, Tammy.”
It’s been one hell of a year—for the both of them, honestly—and it could be something they need. Felix seems to think so, but then again he thinks a lot of things. Tamora considers this as she reaches for Felix’s sweater collar and reels him in for another kiss - one that lasts longer and makes Felix see stars when they eventually pull apart.

http://dudeblade.tumblr.com/post/160557741934/the-writers-comfort-zone
I don’t hold miles, Kerry, and Grey in a high regard when it comes to their writing abilities. At least, when it comes down to writing a serialized show like RW/BY.
Considering the number of times where you attacked the writers, specifically Miles, and the amount of misinterpretation and  blatant bashing and manipulation of facts, everyone who cares knows this and knows you’re biased as fuck against them so your words hold as much weight as a feather here.
Look, the Chorus Trilogy of RvB was good. Sure, it had some questionable bits (Like pretty much putting Felix in nearly every episode), but it was still enjoyable. We got to see Doc again, We got to see F.I.L.L.S/Sheila again, and Tucker’s sword-key was used for a plot point.
It was good.
Notice how Dudebalde’s one question part example isn’t the question of how Doc came back, how O’Maliey manifested, how Miles wouldn’t stop throwing in characters but concerns screentime concerning a character voiced by Miles. AKA that is a rehash of “Jaune too much screentime” And this equally bullshit considering Felix is one of the main villains and is always in the company of the other villain thus for the villains to have a presence in the story, Felix HAS to be in the episode.
Camp Camp was enjoyable. Yeah, the Hitler jokes got old in that one episode, and there were some other questionable things in there (like how some characters are portrayed, and forced to give sympathy to despite having not earned it), but it was enjoyable. I could laugh at that Romeo and Juliet parody sequel, and Nikki’s fourth-wall awareness.
It was good.
Again, the example doesn’t work, this time because you’re questionable example doesn’t have a specific instance so how would one improve on it. You were able to give a specific albeit totally incorrect example above and now you give a possible correct but too vague example here. The two definitive wrongs and you used them both in succession. Jesus.
Chibi had a lot of episodes that were either hit-or-miss. Regardless, season one had a lot of episodes (more than the first two volumes combined if you don’t count WoR). Still,the Jaune asking Weiss thing got old in Volume 2, and there was no way that it could become likable just by putting it in a comedic setting. But there were some enjoyable bits. Like those comic adaptations one, and Yang’s training montage.
It was good.
Anything concerning Jaune you have no right to argue in due to your massive bias against the guy and the guy who voices him as well as your inability to remove personal bias from your analysis. And again. your description of RWBY Chibi being hit or miss doesn’t work because that’s comedy as a whole (Being hit or miss by nature) thus useless as criticism. And now you’ve screwed up again, both times and in quick succession. Ugh...
But RWB/Y is the first time the writers have to make something with original characters, that isn’t episodic orcomedic.
They aren’t in their comfort zone.
You’re wrong on two levels. One, RWBY is classified as a Dramedy like Red Vs. Blue and thus has comedy in it so your comedic point is invalid.
Two: Red Vs. Blue stopped being episodic back in Season 6 with each episode either setting up or progressing the current plotline in a serial manner. And by your own admission, they did a good job on Chorus. So your episodic point is invalid.
They have nothing to follow, and this is why I dislike Volume 4. It just felt like nothing was planned. Four Relics? - Thrown in there to make it look cool (despite the fact that this idea was a clichĂ© for so long, that it’s probably written in stone), and Jaune’s unnecessary upgrade (Seriously. He just sacrificed defense so that way he could do two side swings, two diagonal swings, and one overhead swing; as compared to the single sword that could parry, stab, and do many more things that a great sword could not.).
Well, this is hilarious as fuck.
1. Acting like nothing was planned despite the fact that this season WAS the planning season thus it is BUILDING the plans. Not to mention the pacing in this Volume was better than the previous Volumes which had a more steady stream of plot progression and character progression than before. Meaning this Volume was probably planned out, especially since Monty planned teh outline of RWBY with the writers as well so that’s crap.
2. Surprise, Jaune is getting bashed here! Not only is the upgrade only shown in the final episode of the Volume and said episode didn’t have Jaune as the focus no matter how much whining is made thus we haven’t seen the full extent, not only does it make sense to give Jaune the tactician the ability to switch the style he has between versatility and defensive to power and offense thus giving his team the edge in whatever they need at the time but you are arguing the practicality of a greatsword in a world of sniper scythes, shotgun gauntlets, pistol whips, rifle javelins, purse Gatling guns and so on!
3. And this is the funniest thing: You have not said a word about the Maidens despite the fact that it is confirmed that the MAIDENS were thrown in because it was cool and the relics are CONFIRMED to be planned originally, thus you completely missed the mark.
Nothing feels as if it was planned, and that’s why this Volume felt like Dawn of Justice. People wanted it. People were hyped for it. But it just didn’t live up to the hype. Yang’s complex character arc? - her nightmares and panic attacks are never mentioned after she gets her prosthetic. - Look, I get that animation is hard,and that it takes effort. - Y’know what isn’t hard? - Having a character just talk.
No, it’s just like Volume 1 and 2: Build up to a climax. Does this mean people should judge RWBY entirely on Volume 1 alone despite the fact that RWBY is a continuous story? Because this is equally foolish.
And has it not occurred to you that maybe this show made by a small company using new software, without their main animator and a limited amount of time while producing another show (chibi) and mentoring a new writer on a much older, more well respected show (Red Vs.Blue) And thus they don’t have all the time in the fucking world to do this. Apparently not, or it did and your realized you couldn’t bitch about it so you ignored it.
It’s becoming increasingly obvious that the writers are running out of ideas as to how to progress the story. Hell! They had to make Ruby state why she’s doing this journey when the audience already knew why she was doing this journey. We don’t need to be filled in on what we already know. It simply felt as if it were filler designed to give Ruby extra lines to remind us that she’s the main character.
Or, here me out, Ruby was telling other people why she was going to Mistral and thus informing the people or it was a recap style in which Ruby was restating it to ease the audience into it. I don’t know because you conveniently don’t bring up a specific instance or quote!
Also, running out of ideas huh? Are you sure that’s it and it’s not, I dunno, Volume 4 being build up thus the purpose of the Volume was to set things up for Volume 5 and not to advance the plot that far, considering the focus was on character interaction, character development and world building.
I want the show  to get better, I really do. But the writers have no intent on listening to any criticism, and their lack of communication with the VAs shows that even they have some issues with how the writing is going. If they had explained to them as to what was going on, they could have offered some advice as to how to write their character.
- But they don’t. In fact, Arryn had to issue an actual apology for voicing her concerns as to how the character she was chosen to voice was acting. I don’t know if it was her own choice to do so, or if it was the writers that made her do it, but regardless, not even the voice actors know what’s going on.
Well, they have no intent on listening to criticism from people whole, manipulate facts and attack them and they have every right to do so. Even if the criticism is actual criticism and not attempts to control the show for their own agenda, the writers can still choose to rebuff criticism if they feel it isn’t needed. And considering Miles seems to be a frequent practitioner of self deprecation, if he feels it’s going alright, I’d give him a fair chance.
And you want proof you manipulate the facts? you said Arryn was apologizing for what she said on Always Open when the Twitter post is about her clarifying what she meant, which is stated to be an apology to try and make the writers look bad through the image of forcing Arryn to apologize which, as a concept, is stupid considering Arryn doesn’t work on Rooster Teeth, has other voice acting jobs and they can’t fire her because she’s a main character VA meaning if she was being mistreated as you say, she can speak up and teh writers will have to do as she says.
They get no input. They don’t get to voice their opinions about how the script is being written. It simply feels as if they’re just there to look pretty and voice the characters.
While the writers get to have all the glory of writing such an epic storyline that could do with some improvement.
Mind proving that? Mind showing us a video or tweet or anything that says they have to say the lines exactly as they are written? Because you apparently ahve never heard of ad libbing where a Voice actor can just make up or change a line on the spot, which is very much a possibility. Proof? One of the most iconic and defining lines of the horror movie villain Freddy Krueger (”Welcome To Primetime bitch!” is an ad lib so it’s entirely possible. Especially since you would need to animate everything AFTER the lines are recorded to properly sync the libs. Hence why english dubs in anime are either shit or new mouth flaps are added.
Like I said before: I’d like for them to plan out at least three volumes in advance to at least, show that they have a plan and that they aren’t shoehorning new things to make the show sound ‘cool.’
It would alleviate some concerns.
Like a certain animator who constantly threw in shit because it was cool, either spoiling plot points or character moments or bring a character in too early or completely fucking over the established universe and rules? Yeah, nice try there, unless I see a post you made criticizing Monty, I’m assuming bias against the current writers.
Also, would it kill them to hire more writers instead of spending that money on one-shot actors? - Seriously, am I the only one who has a problem with this? - All that money, WASTED! Just so they could say that they had TeamFourStar and Funimation actors in their show? - It just doesn’t feel worth it.
Like at all.
No, you are not. I actually agree that was a waste of money and could have be used better. However, this still doesn’t excuse the fact that you have manipulated the facts, lied several times and used manipulative language to try and get the readers to hate the writers. Even this point, the only one I agree with, is pretty tainted considering that Monty wasted money getting Jen Talyor to voice Salem, the main villain and not some random randos. 
This was just a giant bitch fest against the writers and I advise you to shut up or learn to make criticisms that aren’t the result of misinformation and bias.
