Spider x navi reader

Spider probably never knew what love was before he fell for you. Im sure he has heard stories of »love« but being the only teen human made him think finding this amazing feeling called love would never happen. But he probably never imagined falling for a navi. I imagine he would be in love with you for some time before he would actualy realize it. He would always be defferent with you. He would protect his »siblings« but with you hed be even more protective. You might be taller and stronger than him but no way in hell he wouldnt try his best to protect you anyways. Andi ts not only about being protective , he would not mind talking about his dad with you. Everything would just feel so easy  with you. And in some time hed understand this wasnt normal and when he does oh boy.He would try  to hide it. Like nothing was defferent. Trully it wasnt but now that he understands his feelings he would just feel exposed.

He would probably never say it diractly. He would touch you a lot. Holding hands, playing with your tail anything would work for him. And since he couldnt say he is a damn love sick puppy for you he would show it.

Courting would be normal. He sees himself as a navi so just like a normal navi he would court you by giving you gifts. He would want to do everything like a normal navi would. You are one after all it would be the easiest way to show you how he feels.

But even if you might show it back he wouldnt notice.

I imagine you would take him for rides with your ikran. Maybe he beggs you to or maybe you just want to. And he would see that as a date even tho he nor you said it.

The only other way to get with him instead of you telling him would be after the battle when he would see you again after so many months.

God were you perfest even after so long.

I think he would do it on the damn ship during everyone was fighting.

»I love you«

He would just say it after getting you into his arms fort he first time in so long.

I dont know why but i feel like fort he first time he would say i love you and not i see you. Ofc he would say i see you later on but fort he first time i feel like i love you is all he could say.

And when you two would become a thing he would still act the same. He would be the same protective and needy guy.

Now since his mask i think you would probably have to kiss his mask to show physical affaction. But thats nothing for him. So you would have to kiss his skin. His favorite would probably be his hands , neck and the blue marks he would put on himself. Now he cant kiss you. So for the longest time he would just touch you. But after some time he would risk it and take his mask off for just a  second. Just enough to kiss you. And that probably would be heaven for him.

Sorry i havent been posting for some time now. Ill try to write something in the next week. Probably a new ep for one of my series

Just saw a tweet saying max has never lost a position during a SC restart since he joined RB. Now idk how reliable this stat is (lol) but u sometimes mention how his restarts are crazy so I was just wondering why are his restarts so good? Like what does he do taht the rest just isn't doing?

omfg my vertsussive ((😭??)) journalism era .. The stat is very reliable. Let's TALK ABOUT ITTT ‼️‼️‼️

According to this op who checked specific time stamps for every VSC and SC deployed until 2021, available here, Max has driven behind 88 safety cars since he joined red bull, 103 total, and he never lost position on a single one. Which means he's either kept position or actually managed to overtake. He gained position 17 times. For comparison wid another yk pretty good driver, during the same period Lewis gained position 5 times, and only lost track position 3 times. All 3 to Max. Thats 2016-2021. I think Singapore 2022 ruined the record because I'm pretty sure Max lost position under the sc there. Idk how many times he's gained so far either, but I can think of a few races this year alone, so it wud be interesting to check. Hes been able to gain position for about 20% of restarts between 2016-2021, which is like .. not even comparable to other drivers numbers its his stat its definitely a Verstappen thing and the easiest way to explain it is: its a grey area, it allows for somebody wid enough nerve, skill and commitment to take ownership and use it for their own benefit. Enter the nerve, skill and commitment baddie, whos been haunting motorsport since before he cud vote.

SC restarts were cheat codes that inevitably lead to a verstappen amendment because FIA is bitches. During SCs Max liked to get his insane self right next to whoever was in front of him, and I mean RIGHT NEXT to the mf, and make them eat shit and d1e the moment they were allowed to restart. These are called 'restart tactics' I prefer 'jeddah appetizers'. Like literally he wud bully these men, run them wide or pinch them against walls like they owed him lunch money and then take off. This is still legal mind u, u can gain position after a SC, its literally racing, the updated rule last year was more of a 'fucking calm down Max' type of thing. Not the first of its kind, as we know. Even tho they kinda backtracked wid the first one and now u can twerk a lil bit under braking but not too much. I love f1. Anyway.

Article 55.14 of F1’s sporting rules states: “In order to avoid the likelihood of accidents before the safety car returns to the pits, from the point at which the lights on the car are turned out, drivers must proceed at a pace which involves no erratic acceleration, or braking nor any maneuver which is likely to endanger other drivers or impede the restart."

--- BASICALLY, yall ((max)) can drive side by side, yall can weave to warm up the tires, but those lil ((Dutch)) footsies better keep it chill until sc is gone and maintain position. Now a casual wud read this and think, oh, so they nerfed him, he cant commit the crime anymore, but Max read that and thought oh, okay, so I'll literally just keep doing it, in a different way, and I'll gaslight other drivers into letting me do it ((literally, I'm not joking)). They said cars had to stay in position, they didn’t say how. They didnt say he couldnt simply keep his delta, in a situation where its practically impossible, and gain under the VSC, for example.

Max excels at rolling starts because one, the audacity 😐((I think sharl and lewis the only 2 drivers who ever managed to beat him at his own game)) two, the timing and skill is computer level of specific. It is a very VERY meticulous process, and it takes making hands-on decisions about multiple components, racing lines, tires, acceleration, lifting, in a very, very short amount of time. So pretty much Max SC restarts are him not beating the made in a lab allegations. But most sim racers, ex drivers, engineers, will just tell you that the reason he's so good at this is because he practices more than everybody else in the world, probably. U do it enough times and it becomes second nature, u know exactly how the car is gonna behave so what seems like 'instinct' and the product we see, as fans, a bunch of slow cars suddenly going ‼️‼️AHSHSHSHDJSHF actually takes a lot of thinking on their side. Max does a lot of thinking in the car he doesn't get credit for, because the mad max narrative is also such a huge part of who he is, and it is true, to a certain extent, but its not mindless aggression, never has been. Its a deliberate choice and its got a simple purpose: gaining or maintaining position. I'm not saying he never got too reckless or that he never pushed it, but he always did it for a reason, and he had full control of his car, always.

Thats the crucial difference between Max and somebody whos just aggressive, because if Max was truly just a meathead behind the wheel, he wud not be known for mastering one of the few aspects of racing that rests entirely on strategy and skill, the restart. Thats why doctor markonstein put his ass in an f1 car when he was 17, because if a teenager wid no experience and a temper can control an f1 machine to the point he becomes an actual threat, imagine what he can do in his 20s 😐. Maybe in his 20s he can lift less than a quarter of a second before the control line to stay behind the leader and be allowed to overtake him at the restart.

abc miles quaritch headcanons nsfw + short fluff story

i have a quaritch brainrot and there isnt enough content out there to FEED ME so i gotta feed myself, this has no plot btw (i left out some letters bc i didnt know what to put for them)

800 words

A-arousal (what turns him on)

quaritch can get turned on by litteraly anything, but especially when you have attitude, it turns him on knowing that hes gonna fuck the attitude out of you

A2-aftercare (how he takes care of you)

he'll run you either a bath or shower, normally bath because your legs basically go limp, then he kisses every inch of you and you both drift off to sleep

A3-Agressive (how agressive he is during sex)

very agressive and mean, but he makes up for it with aftercare, he also takes his anger out on you sometimes, during sex, never arguing tho, he doesnt like scaring you and will take his anger out on another recom if he has to, never on you

B-body part (his favorite part of your body)

quaritch is both a tit amd ass man, but hes more of a tit one, if he had the chance to he'd either fuck your tits or he'd use them as pillows

C-clothing (if he prefers clothing during sex)

sure he'd enjoy it if you wore sexy clothes during sex, but he likes it even more when youre completley nakes under him, it makes him feel like he has more power

D-degrading (if he degrades you or no)

ooh this man deffo enjoys degrading you, will whisper the nastiest and meanest shit in your ears knowing you get off to it

E-edging (does he edge you?)

damn well he does, he enjoys edging you then sropping whatever he was doing to hear your begs

F-face riding (does he enjoy it when you ride his face?)

normally when he lets you ride his face, hes fisting his cock behind you to your noises, he likes it when you ride his face mainly because he has lota of control over you

H-head (how often you give him head)

you give quaritch head alot, and you dont really complain because you love making him feel good, you usually give him head when yours too tired to have sex

J-jerk off (where he jerks off)

quaritch has no shame and will jerk off next to you, doesnt matter if youre awake or asleep, sometimes if youre awake you fist his cock to help him

K-kinks (just kinks)

quaritch has many kinks, but his favorite is degrading, he just loves dominating you, tying you up, you name it he's probably done it

P-porn (if he watches porn)

no not really since its not available on pandora, thats why he makes his own little private videos with you, he doesnt share them with anyone and keeps them to himself to use sometimes

Q-quiet (how loud you both are)

you both are no where near quiet, atleast you arent, but really no one cares, he likes it when people complain about the noise next moeming

R-rest (if he rests after it)

no, usually no unless its night or he had a rough day

S-sex drive (how horny he is)

hes always horny, trust me even when you arent soing anything intimate, if he looks your way he's immediatley horny, but when he iant hes loving and caring

T-thurst (his pace)

usually he has a very fast pace, but sometimes he goes slow in attempt to make love to you, only when hes in the mood for it though

to make up for how short this is, heres a short story ig, isk what to consider it, ita just fluff no smut

quaritch walked into your room, it was almost 1 am and you were confused as to why hes here at this time, sure you both were dating but its still weird why he'd be here

you watched him walk towards your bed and plop himself down on it laying himself next to you

"whyre you here at this time? not to be rude or anything, just a question" you said trying not to sound rude or annoyed because you really didnt mind his presence, you liked being around him

"no reason, i was just bored thought id drop in ere'" he said, sleepy voice, his sleepy voice was so goodamn hot

you saw his ears twitch, you couldnt resist how cute his ears fucking are, you crouched over to him raising your leg over his slim waist straddling him while he was asleep, he looked tired and that was confirmed when he didnt make a move to get you off him

he just moved his hand up to your thigh and soothingly rubbed his fingers across it

you laid yourself down on his chest legs still on both sides of his torso, you dropped your head next to his, he brpught his hand up to your hair playing with it slightly before you felt the movement stop

quaritch was fast asleepx he usually doesnt sleep first, seems like he had a tough day

you loved how he looked while asleep, its the most peaceful you see him, you admire his face slowly drifting to sleep after him

Hello! Thank you for fulfilling my request! I have another one you would like to try on. May I request HCs of Phoenix, Reyna, Skye, and Yoru (Separately) reacting to their [S/O] [Gender Neutral] [Romantic] joining the Valorant Protocol. For context, [Reader] didn’t know about their respective partner’s job and while they were being recruited to also become an agent, they spotted their lover and exclaimed, “[Agent’s name]?!” While the agent in question is also surprised.

They can either be a powerful Radiant for combat or a skillful fighter. It’s your choice so go all out with your creative writing.

Word count: 800

Warnings: nothing?

Okok two things: 

reader in this context is a skillful fighter, pls forgive me if you preferred a radiant reader.. I couldnt think of any original powers ok…

I wrote this in bullet form, might be slightly messy

Phoenix

Initial reaction to his lover joining the protocol:

- s h o o k

- pinches himself to see if he’s dreaming

- never knew you were this good at combat and guns!

- a mixture of him being proud and worried

- is so excited for you to be fighting with him, but on the other hand, is worried about you getting hurt

- at first, he had so many questions

- though once you answered it, he slightly calmed down

- immediately discusses to you combos that you two can do together

- you could feel your head spinning on how fast he was talking

How he feels when he sees you in action:

- after seeing you train together in Valorant, he fell in love even more

- it’s just so breathtaking how precise and poise your movements are

- though somehow finds ways to get all handsy with you

- he finds “corrections” on how you hold your gun

- it's just an excuse to hold your hand

- makes sure yall actually do the combos he planned

- overall very supportive boyfie and has no issue taking the news

Reyna

Initial reaction to her lover joining the protocol:

- to say Reyna was pissed was an understatement

- she was FURIOUS

- you are her everything, so it would be so hard for her to accept this fact

- she lost her sister and can't fathom the idea of losing you

- tries so hard to try and talk you out of it

- it totally does not work and goes to Brimstone and tries to tell him to dismiss you

- Brim says no, and thinks your combat skills are amazing

- sulks angrily at this event

How she feels when she sees you in action:

- slowly accepts that you are indeed skilled enough for this

- your social and surrounding awareness is through the roof

- swears she’s never seen this type of behavior before you joined Valorant

- that doesn't stop her from being overprotective tho!

- sometimes, its a blessing in disguise, but sometimes, it brings down both of you

- but the worst time was when she was bickering with you whilst fighting her mirror and gets fatally injured when she didn’t notice the enemy viper behind her

- Brimstone scolded Reyna after this event, and that's when she finally accepts that she needs to back off slightly

- once comfy with the idea, she trains you to be the best agent you can be

- loves the bloodlust she sees from you when your in the zone

- finally can show you her true side

Skye

Initial reaction to her lover joining the protocol:

- surprised, really

- is probably the most opened minded S/O out of the 4

- talks to you, not to tell you to quit

- but to talk to you about the risks of this job and other things

- when she is sure you understand, she teaches you the ropes around the job

- the best one in taking the news and the calmest

How she feels when she sees you in action:

- the connection between you two is so strong

- its like you can read each others minds

- thinks you were made for this typa work

- when she met you she had this feeling you had some hidden strength like her

- but finding it out this way was so surprising

- when you get hurt on the battlefield

- there’s this aura you feel that she’s going to murder whoever hurt you

Yoru

Initial reaction to his lover joining the protocol:

- after finding out, he pulls you to the nearest empty corridor

- so so many angry questions

- thinks you are not fit for this job

- like Reyna, talks to you about quitting before its too late

- he has a big issue when losing people

- even when he's a loner

- when you are considered precious to him, Yoru can't bare to lose you

- after processing the news, he becomes supportive 

- excited to make more memories with you, even on the battlefield

How he feels when he sees you in action:

- ok remember when I said he thought that this job was not suited for you?

- after seeing you in action he takes all his words back

- not that he would admit it out loud

- he thinks you are so cool

- you swear you caught him staring at you with starry eyes

- why is his S/O so stinking cute and hot at the same time???

- you aced for the first time and he really went 

- awooga 🥵

- another memory he denies!

Author’s Note - welcome to Monica’s brain rot caused by this wonderful requester!! It might be a bit messy like i said earlier HOPE I DID WELL FOR THIS REQ HUHUU

[little-nugget-writes-stufff]

If only we could spend more time together

Our beloved creator

Part 3 :D

(Little warning

I used characters who i have high/low Friendship bonds with. Also im pretty sure i made some spelling mistakes wich im srry for. English is NOT my first language)

You can barely open your eyes. When you do, you find yourself surrounded by aranara's and ofcourse, Nahida. "Hello creator" she says in her sweet child voice. "Please call me Y/n, i cant bare hearing that title". She looks a bit suprised but nods her head anyways. "But you said something about rivalry between the people?" You ask. She nods. "Yes. If i may ask you to follow me towards 2 people?"

Your mood changed within a second. She was already getting you to put an end on it. To make them fear you? No that couldnt be possible. Right? She must've read your mind bc she answered in a more calm tone "Y/n im talking about Tighnari and cyno. If there would be people absolutely not joining in this little thing it would be them, you dont need to fear them"

So you ended up following her towards them. I mean she was right, if there were people who wouldnt harm you it would be them. Now that you think about it there are more people who wouldnt but right now they are the most useful.

"So you actually got them here"? Cyno asked. "Im glad you trust us" Tighnari said. You were taken by suprise."Collei also seemed to enter the chaos" cyno said. This suprised Tighnari. Wait. Did that mean most of the characters you already had were doing the most damage?! "Most people who had the luck to get into the ritual called "coming home" seem to be the damage dealers" Nahida said. Oh god that sounded familiar. "Oh shit" you mumbled. "Luckily there are not many in sumeru who got into that ritual, so.. Y/n as far as i know you will be safe here" She hesitated when saying your name. You could understand that tho.

"If im not mistaken your here to stop this chaos and leave right?" Tighnari asked. At this moment you didn't know. Life in sumeru seemed nice. Or atleast how you could live in peace. At home you also didn't have that so. "I dont know, but i will think about it all" there was a small smile on Nahida's face. "If im right Mondstadt and Liyue seem to be the worst" She said. "Wait most people of the Knights of favonius and Qixing got into this ritual, so" you said. This could get alot harder then expected.

So you guys spend the next couple of days planning. Thats when it hit you though. THE FRIENDSHIP BONDS! The higher it was the more rebelious they were. Bleh kinda like yandere's. "Well it would be best to stay away from the Qixing for now" you said. There was a confused look on their faces. "Oh god how do i explain this.. ehm the people who got into this ritual and fighted alongside the traveler alot.. might be more of a challenge then people who didn't fight much alongside them, is that understandable??" You said in a nervous tone. They nodded. "So the Qixing fights alongside the traveler alot"? Cyno asked. You nod. "Oh and they might be stronger then normal.. hehe" thinking back to your lvl 90 Keqing and lvl 80 Ganyu.

"but then what would be the safest option? The Knights of favonius?" You shake your head at Tighnari's question. U ofcourse had most of the Knights so. If you thought about it Inazuma would seem safer. No Scratch that the shogun is there wich IS already a challenge herself so that would NOT work. "Maybe starting small in sumeru with the people who are like that would be the safest option, and then think about were we head next?" They all nodded their head in agreement.

"I have to go for a little while to take care of someone" Nahida said. And your love for the little man doin the fandango got the best of you. "THE WANDERER?!" you squeked out. Nahida gave a small nod. Oh wait im divine i dont think thats appropriate.. "i didn't mean it like that ehh.. since the Wanderer hates Gods (idk for sure) i dont think he would participate in this bs" You explained. In reality you'd be over the moon to meet the smal man. Nahida seemed to get your point.

So you guys went to scaramouche. Or atleast, you and Nahida. To your suprise, he was awake. And man you had to hold yourself back not to become the gremlin you are and hug him. "The divine creator?" He said in a confused tone. You nodded, a smile appeared on your face. "But please call me Y/n". He looked suprised. Why did it seem like such a crime for people to just call you by your name?? "What are they doing here" he asked. You knew that he wouldnt be very fond of you, and you cant really blame him for it.

"They are here to fix some things and-" oh she didn't know what to say next, oh well better say it yourself then. "And to see you ofcourse' you said with a smile. Why would the crea- Y/n want to see me. He thought. "And i know your not very fond of Gods and to be honest i can understand that. But at the moment it would be nice to have ur help" you explained. Wich only made scara more confused. Why would the creator, god of everything need his help?!

"Listen i can understand this is confusing, but- wait is this the first time your awake again after your fall??!" He nodded. Ohhh so thats why he didn't understand. Nahida explained the situation and all that has happened so far. "So let me get this straight, the archons did NOT see the difference between an imposter and the real god, killed an innocent person, allowed the imposter to Stab the crea- y/n and now they're fighting eachother over the fact that they didn't speak to those who hurt them?" You only nod.

And thats it for part 3

I hope you guys like this part :D

Idk when im starting on the next so this one is longer than expected.

Ten Characters from Ten Fandoms

Tagged by @schattenmetapherlieder , thank you!

1. Rudolf (Elisabeth das Musical)

(omg this is how I find out my gifs are available in the gif search???? Time to use them as reaction images 2013 style)

2. Alfred (Tanz der Vampire)

he's so normal<3

3. Marisa Coulter (His Dark Materials)

(I like both performances but I prefer her fashion in the movie aksksk)

4. Glinda (Wicked)

5. Peter Jakes (Endeavour)

i could've put a gif w his face but this is better 😭😂😂

6. This is cheating but: the ensemble cast of The Secret History

Yes I've been playing them in the sims. I created none of them in CAS, they were all born in-game (yes I play the long game) and I put them into university together when they grew up into young adults. Unfortunately francis died as a teenager in a vampire accident (my Richard is a redhead) & bunny decided to go eat at another table (independent of my control....). The expressions they are making,, canon

7. Aurora Luft (X Company)

You probably thought I'd put Alfred Graves because he's my tumblr icon but I did not 😂😭 While I really like that character as well, I think Aurora is more singular as a well-written woman in ww2 spy media. Plus most of the interesting things in the show happen around and because of her ajdkskd

8. Sally Bowles (Cabaret)

No gif because they're all of Liza Minnelli whom I haven't seen ajdkd. This is Julia Leinweber (Hof 2022) (ignore Uwe in the back he's doing his own thing) but I think Jill Haworth's is my ultimate fave. Also enjoyed Anna Victoria Eriksson (Turku 2020, 2023)

9. Fantine (Les Misérables)

I'm probably considered a fake Fantine fan because I just listen to Patti over and over and don't know many of them oabdösöd. I haven't even listened to Lea rip

10. Hatsumomo (Memoirs of a Geisha)

yeah this is kinda bad given that the movie is a sexist orientalist mess akslsls I just thought she was hot when I was like 10 and couldnt stop

Tagging: @wo-der-horizont-beginnt @yallemagne @armandjolras @ins-licht @hydromantia @gone-to-ground (no hurry or pressure to anyone tho, only if you feel like it!)

[goremet-chef]

just found someone who makes monster hunter lego builds do NOT speak to me im. this. GRGRGRG

anyways heres some gifs i have of monsters cuz im in love with this series forever and always (super long ramble SFJKS ive been writing this for hours)

odogaron + ebony odo is like.... you dont understand. thats me i kin so many monsters from MH its insane like.. thats literally me nothing reflects me better LOOK AT THEM. rathalos, odogaron, nargacuga like any red scary thing i resonate with deep in my soul its insane

this one is one of my headmates favorites. shrieking legi really came thru when he was having a bad time and i love this for him. ITS JUST LIKE... so many of the monsters resonate with us on such personal levels, that its hard to even explain. i am selfish, and i do view monster hunter as my game (got that autism special) like these are my creatures they were made for me

REAL TALK THO, these two were genuinely actually made for me look at this shit

unknown (black flying wyvern) and valstrax my beloveds. fucking god tier

the fact that i already resonate with the rathalos so hard, and it turns out theres a black and red edgier cool version of it/????like are you insane when i discovered this thing i was. SO UNWELL IN MY CHANNEL ON DISCORD i literally rambled about it for AN HOUR STRAIGHT. then when i found out about valstrax i rambled about that one for an hour too SKFJS like wow they are so cool. autism is real

also have this one, xeno'jiiva is so. MHW was my first MH game (say what you will) and god damn. im gonna be real idk if id be so into it if it wasnt for MHW, cuz like.... the main appeal of the entire game series to me is the monsters themselves. like im. when i first started i was TOO SCARED TO FIGHT THE GREAT JAGRAS (yknow. the first large monster you fight 😭😭 like the 3rd quest. insane) because ive never been into fighting games and having something large PURSUE ME didnt sound pleasant

crazy that i went from being too scared to play it again to LITERALLY playing for 72 hours almost STRAIGHT with minimal pee and sleep breaks, and giving myself carpal fucking tunnel cuz i was just. obsessed. AUTISM IS REAL

went from couldnt stand 10 minutes of it to 400 hours in game SKFJSD

and i would do it again bitch!!!

so what im SAYING. alright. is that im not a fighter in games (well NOW i am, but before i super wasnt) but what drew me in was how i could just.. watch. how i could see all the big scary monsters sleep and eat and walk around and fight eachother. how i could get their tracks, listen to their sounds, ETC. like it was so. IT WAS THRILLING and ive never been more in love

like for context my first special interest is fnaf and i wouldnt be anything like myself if i never got into fnaf like life changing shit. but i gotta say, i mean. ive played the fnaf games and i love the story and EVERYTHING this is not a diss on my first home!!!! but i played MHW to the point of exhaustion, to where i needed to have an arm brace and even then despite the HORRIBLE PAIN in my wrist, i still kept playing

i played so much i literally managed to rub the s and w letters of my siblings keyboard KSJFSF like it was for real. i miss that, like a lot. i dont play as much anymore because i mean. i have it on my laptop. my laptop is a gaming laptop and it can run!! but its better for my

yknow i dont think i have an actual reason and im literally about to cry thinking about it SKFSFJ the good computer with the good graphics and running is my siblings and id need permission, yknow how it is. PLUS im a bit stuck? i need an urugaan ruby for my barioth mission lmao but ill get there

monster hunter world is so beautiful. the environments are fucking stunning, the visual upgrade for the monsters was INSANE and just watching them be animals? it brings me so much joy KSJSJSJ

one of my favorites is the rotten vale, which is funny cuz i remember the first time i ever went there i was so. PARANOID. i use sound with pretty much everything i play since my eyes might not track everything thats happening, so hearing the ambience for the vale freaked me out so much, i stayedat the camp for SO LONG and good thing too cuz the radobaan makes its way down that path and i was shook SKFJSF

also the big fucking dalamadur skeleton in the vale is so. UGHHHH

i love horror and rot and decay!!! its frightening its unsettling but even still the vale is such a necessary part of the ecosystem!!! like wow monsters come there to DIE? are youINSANE

(dalamadur is like one of the biggest monsters for reference. the whole upper part of the vale is made of its skeleton cuz its a big snake its so UGHHH)

also the???? STOMACH ACID POOL?

they were cooking bro,,,,, such a gorgeous and unsettling environment goddd

like GOD i cant think of anything better, the story for MHW is so good man. the tracker said "its an ecological marvel" and i took that personally (i repeat that so much about random shit its not even funny how long ive been doing that for)

or how like... any of the docile monsters (tobi kadachi, banbaro, kulu ya ku, ETC) i genuinely if i go on expedition, and i see theres a docile monster in one of the locales, ill go there and just follow them around the ENTIRE TIME SFKSFS

heres SEVERAL pics of me with banbaros at different times KSJFS

that isnt even all of them with JUST banbaro 💀💀💀 its my favorite activity

and sometimes i get hit with the banbaro / nightshade paolumu / coral pukei combo!!!! thats a triple docile whammy!!!!! thriving

also heres a cute viper tobi shot :] love viper tobi

also also i cant believe i never said anything yet but VAAL HAZAK??? my actual liege look at this mf

MY LORD!!! vaal is so fucking cool man. and the KICKER??? DOCILE

whenever i do this quest i do just follow it around for a while (which. ive had to do this quest A LOT cuz i thought i get vitality crystals from it (yknow cuz i got some from it) so i have probably 100% killed more vaal hazak than any of the other elder dragons SKFJSF

vaal hazak is so cool cuz its covered in rotten meat and uses the effluvium (corpse gas) as its like. life source. it pulls excess effluvium from the vale into itself and expels it when theres not enough, so its keeping the ecosystem tame its so cool UGHH

also one of its moves it plays dead its so fucked up itll fall over like you've knocked it over and then just lay there but you hear its inhale and it looks up and BLASTS YOU with its effluvia gas beam (WHICH. THAT THING HURTS!!!!!! for real the effluvium attack is so. plus it also halves yr health? like if vaal hits you with that shit itll give you miasma or whatever and it HALFS YR HEALTH BAR and you gotta eat a nulberry to negate it

im not one for switching shit around in my like item bar tho (MAINLY cuz most the time ive played MHW was with my siblings mouse and its scroll bare was broken so swapping items was hard) so i just put on like 3 effluvia resistance gems and it cant give me miasma. problem solved SKFSJF

i did get so tired of fighting it cuz yknw its a hard fight its an elder dragon, but i will say like the MUSIC? thats one of the things like. when we fought megan in the forest, they gave us battle music and THAT is why i kicked ass and abandoned all my fear, monster hunter instincts kicked in and i tanked alright like it was NOTHING, battle music just hits different

vaal hazak theme is so fucking good!!!! "keeper of hades" ARE YOU INSANE? HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND????? i cant believe this shit!!!!!!!!

monster hunter stop being the coolest franchise ever challenge KSFJSF

i did do vaal hazak fight with no music before cuz i was trying to see and. THE MUSIC DOES SO MUCH? literally there was like no adrenaline without the music it was just. :| oh. im in the vale. thats the dragon. hes gonna breath attack. okay LIKE IT WAS SO LACK LUSTER IT WAS INSANE

i never realized how much the music did for fights but its so.. vital bro like it gets you in the fighting mood it compliments the monster and the area its !!!GRAAAAHHHH

monster hunter soundtrack is literally so fucking good. BANGERS back to back literally every song is so fucking cracked its epic

dont even get me STARTED on "proof of a hero" that song makes me stim so fucking hard man it makes me feel so fucking good. my sibling made his ringtone for me that song and AUGHHH crying sobbing

like yeah this is proof that im a hero!!! literally makes me feel so proud and FOR WHATTTT

idk im such a firm believer in the importance of sound design, sound design is EVERYTHINGGG and MH does such a good job with that shit, the monster roars and environmental ambience, audio cues to what attack is gonna happen, the music its all. perfect 10/10 godtier shit

anyways this is my monster hunter ramble, it most likely will happen again. love this game with all my heart

(TUA S4 SPOILERS UNDER CUT)

while i do have a bone to pick with how season 4 of umbrella academy was written (what with five and lila's relationship), i must say, i really liked that ending.

i am confused as to how the rest of lila's family and claire were able to survive in the subway, because every timeline besides the original was destroyed. well, maybe they had already gotten off the subway somehow in the original timeline? seems unlikely.

no okay see. i hate how five and lila's relationship was developed. i get why the writers did it. i understand their choice. it doesn't mean i have to like it. i was completely fine with a romance dramaless season, but guess that's not what i'm getting. there is so many different ways to make a character grow than to make them fall in love. (i hate this.)

i wish we could have seen more of klaus. i liked how his character was first shown. except, on the ride to lila's kid party, he wears a protection headgear in the car, but doesn't when the family first goes on the roadtrip to find jennifer, weird. loved that klaus is close to claire and allison, i love these three.

this season actually made me really like luther, it's lovely to see how far his character has grown from season 1. Actually, he might have been the character i enjoyed the most this season.

jennifer and ben's relationship moved fast man.

also, when the siblings get their memories of ben's death back (now, i may have misunderstood), shouldn't they have also needed klaus? didn't reginald say smth smth about needing everyone's memory to piece it back together or something?

i did like the explanation behind ben's death, but wouldn't klaus have known? back in s1, ben was spending time with klaus, and his memories can't be tempered with because he was already dead. did it never cross ben's mind to tell klaus the truth behind his death? or was reginald's memorie-eraser so good that klaus couldnt register the information even afterward??? lol

funny thing: jean and gene have a "peace" sticker on their car (as seen in episode 4, before they get into the drive-through), it reminded me of nicepool :)

SO

i was thinking abt the ending, at first going "wouldnt they need all 43 kids to get rid of all the marigold" only to realize that the other 43 jids never got their powers back cuz they didn't drink the marigold. so just putting that out there cuz turns out other ppl were confused too

tbf, that ending tho—

awesome.

[marengogo]

hello heres are some naked series ideas if you don't mind ahem

jikook in japan ( when asked whats your fave memories of that day) sir jungkook said watching jimin playing on his phone until 5 am they were almost late for their flight lol

bon voyage commentary ( they asked jungkook the difference between bv1 and bv2) lmao he couldnt answer i wonder why😏

the fact that jungkook keep telling people namjoon is the reasom he joigned bighit dont sit right with me its like theyre a layer to it we'll never know... cos as a 14-15 yo he didnt even talk through it to his parent or sum.. and their first meeting tho i cringe...

minimoni idk why but i dont like that pairing...

in the soop jimin imitates the way jungkook "snores" and me thinks its the other kind cos who in their right mind snores like that are they fr💀

This is that famous ASK I have spoken about at the beginning of me answering ASKS.I received this ASK August 22, 2022 and it took me this long because of how I decided to tackle it. To begin with, there were a lot of topics I didn’t want to just breeze over (like the NamKook part). In addition, the tone of the whole ASK got me a bit itchy in all the wrong places, so I’ve been trying to keep my cringe at bay.

Hence … dear Anon, I do apologize for the delay in replying to this ASK, but here I am! And I’ll discuss the cringe-feeling I had with the tone at the very end, so hang in there with me that is if you are still around, cause gurl/boi/enby more than half a year is admittedly a long-ass time, I’ll give you that 😬😬.

So I’ve begun speaking about Minimoni and NamKook in the posts right here so please feel free to read those → MINIMONI & NAMKOOK. For the rest, let’s beginning with the first part of the ASK.

“JIKOOK IN JAPAN” 

Anon is referring to a specific infamous? moment that happened during BTS’ AbemaTV Christmas Special interview on December 21, 2017, which you can find kindly translated here by BangtanSubs. As always I base whatever I discuss on all the Original Content (OC) provided so, I’d always advise watching this content before continuing reading if you haven’t already.

I think I have touched the subject of translating privately in my DM, but I can’t quite recall if I have on my blog. Some of you may know that I can speak Japanese, to a level where I mostly don’t need subtitles (unless there is a vocab I don’t know which I then have to look up). Now translating for a fandom like BTS is: TOUGH AF. 

As you know we have solo stans, shippers, casual listeners, here only for the boys interaction, but not the music-stans, YOU NAME IT stans, so when someone provides you with a translation, for the most part they have to decide amongst 3 choice/courses of action:

Just translate the words and you can figure out implied meanings

I will translate in a way that the implied meaning is understood even if they didn’t say those words

Just translate the words, then take some time to make notes and explain what it could mean and also add already known facts with regards to the statement. 

If you ask me, choice 3 would have to be the way to go; always. BUT LET’S BE REAL. It takes hella time to translate correctly. Imagine having to explain everything, every time, when the demand for instant translations is so high, particularly in a fandom like ours, especially when there are many moments which translators feel nobody should misunderstand. 

Also, choice 1, prevents for the most part being attacked by people in the fandom, whereas choice 2 is the quickest way to getting things spectacularly wrong if you turn out to have mistakenly interpreted what you thought they meant.  All of the aforementioned, are the reasons why Choice-1-Translators are the most common. But if I may add my 2 cents, do take the time to find some Choice-3-Translators when/if you can. Obviously, not for everything, but when/if in doubt, look for multiple sources until you are sure you’ve found various reputable, different-in-nature, sources who agree on the same meaning. 

Good Choice-1-Translators are hella quick, 95% accurate and rely heavily on context. So what is the context of this Jikook-moment.

Following is the context as righteously translated by BangtanSub:

This is the actual Japanese part without the translate caption:

おもしろトーク is the construct which was translated as “funniest story”, which is not wrong, but like A LOT OF ANYTHING in Japanese it has nuance and other meanings. The word おもしろい (read omoshiroi) mainly means “interesting” and the second most common meaning is “funny”, as something funny is culturally considered also interesting it’s a bit complicated a concept to understand but stick with me for a sec. Anyways, the person with the most interesting/funniest answer would win the price. 

As they start answering, J-Hope begins with promoting his solo songs off the bat, which has nothing to do with his questions, hence in a way, it was kinda funny/interesting for him to answer like that LOL. And then it is JK’s turn. 

Now, this was 2 months after they had gone to Tokyo together and we know just how much they loved talking about this trip. They literally took every chance to mention it.

So when JK decided to talk about that trip, instead of an experience of them presently being in Japan, I’m sure nobody was shocked, however what I think happened then was that people gave too much importance to the “memorable” part instead of the “funny/interesting” part. I believe that JK told that story because the fact that they stayed up until 5am was truly memorable because it was truly funny/interesting to him.  

What happened in those hours that they remained awake using JM’s phone? I don’t know. But using JM’s phone seems to be something that JK does more often than not now lowkey JK doesn’t seem like someone who really uses, or cares much about his own phone.

In fact, if anything, the rest of the members seem to be the ones who were almost worried as to what JK would say. Hobi decided to just give him the gift before even allowing him to finish, JM seemed to agree with that idea, everyone seemed to be just waiting to see what would happen, almost like when JK told the “rainy day” story during BTS Festa 2020. JK seems to really like having everyone wonder what he is about to say, almost to the point where they are borderline anxious; he really liked likes that.

SO TO ANSWER YOU/ANON: JK didn’t say he was watching JM until 5AM though he might have, who knows right?. They were on JM’s phone until 5AM, doing what? If they don’t tell us; we will never know, but also I really don’t think JK would have shared something personal between the two of them if JM wasn’t okay with it but that’s just me. So basically, I really don’t think this was a big moment for Jikook. Interesting/funny? Sure. Moving On!

“BON VOYAGE 2 (BV2)” 

The live Anon is referring to is BTS’ reaction and commentary to their first episode of Bon Voyage Season 2.

These 2 lives both used to be on vlive. However, as we all should know, vlive and weverse have now merged, AND UNFORTUNATELY FOR US, these two particular lives seem to have been lost in the interweb as I couldn’t find them on weverse might try and look better later, BUT, you know me OC.OG. (Original Content OG), wasn’t going to pull up to this ASK reason why I ended up only answering to 1 ASK … without finding a way to make everyone participate in the same discourse, so I didn't stop until I found links to both cause;

It may take days IT TOOK ME FOREVER, but guys, the interweb never really forgets so keep trying, IT IS ALL OUT THERE after that, if you can't find anything, like anything in life, please do ask for help, but my people, at least give it a solid try first.

Aloha, Hawaii!:

Special Commentary Live:

BACK TO THE QUESTION! Just like the previously discussed “Jikook in Tokyo” Jikookers, who MOST LIKELY were not around when this happened, saw the following cut out clip and started thinking that perhaps JK was alluding to the things that he and JM went through BV2, and proceeded to make this a significant moment because of the way JM looked at JK when he was trying to explain the difference between Season 1 and Season 2.

Don’t get me wrong. I do think that the way JM looks at JK in this situation is actually endearing and unique to them, and I’ll explain why. If you watched the commentary video, quite clearly, JK HAD NO CLUE WHAT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SEASON 1 AND SEASON 2 WAS, at least with regards to them as a band, which was what that live was about “BTS reacting to Bon Voyage Season 2”. 

And the members knew that he didn’t, which is why they proceeded to start teasing him, saying that perhaps Namjoon should help him, but JK is a SORE LOSER; we all know that. He likes to win, no matter what, so he was going to say something, regardless of whether or not it was going to make sense or be impressive, and I think JM knew that and I think that THAT was the reason why JM was looking at JK in that way; he was waiting to see what this boi was going to come up with, and while doing that, his expression betrayed him for a couple of seconds, revealing that, even just that part of JK, was so cute, and like, “Why is he so cute even with stuff like this?!...” kinda way. 

SO TO ANSWER YOU/ANON: JM wasn’t staring at JK in that way because he thought about the fact that, for example, they didn’t show them in their room, or that perhaps they might have been playing footsie, ETC, which CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG, you seem to be implying? 

This may come as a shocker but I honestly don’t believe that Jikook is out there trying to out themselves. I think they are conscious of the situation they are in, be it a homophobic country, members' safety, or global repercussions. They know that, and they live with it the best they can. Believe it or not, they are very careful, until they are not; for a second or two in front of the camera, or longer off-camera AKA fuck up slightly. We still don’t know completely the type of humans they are, but whoever they are and whatever they choose to be for each other, once again; THEY ARE DOING THE BEST THEY CAN TO LOVE, LIVE & SURVIVE. 

Moving on to the last part! FINALLY. 

“IN THE SOOP - 1” 

Anon is talking about this particular moment from IN THE SOOP 1 Episode 1:

If you want to watch the whole episode:

I’ll keep this VERY short …

SO TO ANSWER YOU/ANON: No. I don't think that JM was imitating JK moaning. Because this is what you were implying right? If you had watched the whole episode though, you’d see that JM also imitates RM, so what? JM is randomly going around describing how members moan in their private lives? Common’ Anon …

And I will conclude this LONG-ASS POST discussing why I felt cringe by your whole post: IT WAS THE WHOLE “IMPLYING”. There was a general sexual and dissing undertone to your ask, and I might be wrong about my vibe-check, so as always feel free to correct me, but I really … was like *shiver-down-my-spine* about it. 

I am an adult. I don’t mind discussing adult topics. But like everything in life, there is a way and way to approach the topic. When it comes to people who, for the most part, are NOT DISPLAYING THEIR PRIVATE, AND SEXUAL, LIVES OVERTLY, you must know and understand there are boundaries right? Because even though they are not that open and out, the members are sensual beings in their craft and some also a little bit in their ways, and this part they don’t seem to mind displaying and THAT PART WITHIN PROPER REASON, ETIQUETTE AND BOUNDARIES I am very happy to discuss. 

NAKED is not a series I started to begin an AV CONTENT channel, it is a series to strip down moments to their core. Just re-explaining in case it was lost in translation. The fact that I just so happen to be a very sensual and flirty being is all about me. 

So let us not project. Okay?

Alright. Good. I’ll let y’all go, I'll continue answering ask later when I get back home from work!

Always respectfully yours  💜🫰🏾,

Marengo.

[mekatrio]

too sick to draw or do anything else which means its the perfect time to watch mca and be a little autistic nitpicky bitch about it. planning to do a post like this per episode, this one's for episode One. well episode one part one bc nothing in my life is easy and i keep forgetting theres a fucking image limit for posts 🙄

- I HATE THIS FUCKING ANIME ok i needed to get that off my chest...... groaned so loudly at the first four seconds fucking... Church Bells and POLES?!?!? POLES?!?!!! i hate shaft's enviromental choices ok moving on

- how the fuck did i not realize that ayano's VA is rena ryuugu lmfao its all i can hear nowadays

- right theyre on a fucking clock... for some reason.... also honestly i dont like ayano's voice that much. like the voice is fine but i dont think it fits ayano's character

- also this clock sucks i wish it was like more More you know more gears more machinery like ep12 insanity ok wait. are shinaya 3d models here lmfao.. maybe?

- i like this line. saur mysterious

- hahaha.... the Kaien Panzermast

now that i think abt it i have no idea why its called kaien panzermast. like i what its referring to (the song siren thing thats telling kids to go tf home) but what the hell is a Kaien Panzermast?

- this scenery is near meaningless to kagepro literally just a whole bunch of nothing when i say i hate shaft's choices for this anime..... like what is any of this shit. also orange??!? orange of all colors..... god damn man

like yes ok its the evening BUT THIS IS KAGEROU PROJECT. GIVE ME MY RED AND BLUE!

-- this part is cool tho. a bit too heavy handed in the symbolism but i appreciate the gesture

- lol at this:

BECAUSE SHE DIDNT! not until 2017 lmfao. this makes me suspect that the revelations from mr2 were initially supposed to be in the anime. but in the end for whatever reason it couldnt fit itself there, so the only revelation we got was The First Tragedy Exists. and no elaboration.... now that i think of it, iirc me and many fans were pretty thrown off from this opening back when it first aired cuz this was like, the first time we've seen ayano act like this. wait. let me check my timeline

ok nvm lol. second time. first time shes ever like this is in the manga:

but anyways back in 2013/2014 before the LTM episode, there was like no context whatsoever for Why Is Ayano Like That. so that was a doozy

- damn can u imagine working on some songs writing a novel and getting these amazing voice actors to voice ur characters... ohhh i wouldnt know how to act

-HJEKHJSKDFHASJKDFH THIS LOOKS CHEAP AS HELL HELP ME

i mean thats um. one way to show a timeline getting thrown away... I Guess. ignoring the fact that Mary Has Long Hair (which she shouldnt), its a cool visual idea but the execution is um... hfjkssjk

- hehe

headphone actor mv on the left and mca countdown thingy on the right. holy shit they are near identical damn, i just thought they were similar but no, its practically identical. thats so cool T_T if only the rest of this anime was this cool.... whatever onwards i go

- shintaro's stupid futuristic high-rise apartment... i loathe thee

- the fuck is this

- first instance of shaft's trademark of putting random shit on the screen and im already annoyed its gonna be bad for me for the rest of this rewatch if i can even last that long. i know i will at least til ep 10 (11???) cuz i need to see baby mekatrio

- no aku benci lmfao shaft hates to animate so much they threw this story into the future so they could just conveniently project things onto shintaro's cyberwall hahaha..... i fucking hate this anime

- looks like shintaro was drawn by 4 different artists in these various shots that only span like 5 seconds

- damn in the anime its not even ene's fault that shintaro spilled the soda lmfao. thats all on him this time

- also shinene's voices are srsly perfect

- XX you say...... 🤨

- storyboarding sucks shit they went from flashback to not a flashback to flashback again my fucking god dude. the only reason i can make sense of any of it is cuz im rewinding every little thing

- literally no reason to add 'roomie' to this translation but it made me laugh so I GUESS

maybe i should hunt for the official crunchyroll subs. but im too lazy

- lmfao

text from Mekakucity Talkers 24, translated by x0401x. only difference from tht and the screenshot is that shintaro still has hair lol

- hm. i wish it made a bigger deal of shintaro leaving the house. yeah he threw a fit but i wish the actual stepping outside aspect was more dramatic yknow. like how Children Record emphasized it

- WHY IS THIS CITY SO EMPTY

- also curiously this episode is missing this sentence from shintaro abt someone rebuilding the city bit by bit which is in the novels and the manga, which is meant to foreshadow saeru's influence. but then again the first 17 manga chapters are taken nearly word-by-word from the novels so maybe thats all it is 🤷

- also it took like 6 minutes for shintaro to leave the house... theres other things being done ofc, establishing shinene's dynamics, quick exposition of how ene ended up with shintaro to begin with, and spilling soda onto the computer and leaving the house. but i feel like it wouldve been better if the anime stuck to what the novels + mr1 does, where ene blares a loud fucking alarm. that quickly establishes shinene's dynamic and easily leads to a So You Must Be Wondering How I Got Here type of thing, and then knock over the soda leave the house bam easy. instead the anime really took its time with like..... idk making shinaro look ikemen. yeahhh not the best choice, especially considered how rushed the last few episodes are gonna be. ok back to watching the anime

- also aku benci x2 like its only futuristic when its convenient which is soo fucking Lazy. theres literally no reason for this story to be set in the future. like all this city scenery is based off actual modern day Kashiwa its just... ugh. barely any care put into this anime at all

- this anime is cool sometimes

- reused this pencil texture from the start of the episode... wonder how many times ill be seeing that

- the fucking comedic timing of these terrorists lmfao. and right theyre clowns... for some reason....

- also dude ill still never understand why only their thumbs are the only parts ziplocked like what. also isnt that harder to animate... THIS STUPID ANIME

- this is a completely fair reaction to having kano shuuya speak to you for the first time

- no the fuck he isnt he hasnt thought of shit my god.

that comic person on here was not lying shaft really fucked up the order of events here bigtime. kano only speaks to shintaro after shintaro's done brooding.... also seto doing fuckall lol. ik he'll say smth in like 2 seconds but i do find it funny that we've seen him for like the past minute and he hasnt said shit

- ok but its cool that kano's hand just doesnt obey the ziplock.... very clever of the artists to just make him put his hands behind his head and other gestures to indicate that theres something up with him

- why are his eyes red.

[shwarmii]

i just moved three boxes (two light and one heavy-for-me) to my car to take to the storage unit after a break and i AM SO BRAVE

context: i am still in the process of moving (un-moving? i am here, in a new residence, but i am surrounded by boxes and shit ugh) and i was very kindly gifted a storage unit by my parents since i down-sized so much (and my dad is a hoarder so he was very "YOU CAN'T GET RID OF YOUR BREAKFAST ISLAND CHAIRS JUST BC YOU NO LONGER HAVE A BREAKFAST ISLAND" even tho i got the three plush chairs for a total of $20 bc thrifting yay). but i couldnt supervise the movers (bc i was so wiped i was gonna throw up or faint if i didnt lay down and let them do whatever) and they apparently read like.. 2 or 3 of my labels and none of the rest. so they ignored so many that instructed them to put things in the storage unit. and i dont feel comfy calling them for a discount bc they had to deal with so much regarding me and my disability already (mainly: that i didnt finish packing before they got there. yeah. i did 2 or 3 all-nighters in a row just before they came, worked for weeks, and still couldnt do it all. best i could do was make them piles of the remaining stuff and go "please help")

but yeah, im quite disabled and sickly and i have muscle weakness, and i am spent FOR A DAY after a carrying a single case of Arrowhead water from my car to my personal cart to my apartment, so you can imagine the havoc a medium-to-large Costco Box of board games is apparently causing me

(read more is just more of me complaining about boxes, ft. me breaking down how my internalized ableism skews my pov of how difficultly heavy things are by using my little sister for comparison)

i was so shaky after, it sucked so bad. im so glad my storage unit has carriers by the door so i dont gotta haul that shit long-distance anymore. my body is so disregulated, jfc, that box felt like it might as well have been 50 lbs but i know for a fact it was on the heavier side of "light". bc my little sister helped me out with the worst of my heavy boxes a week or so ago (aka: my book boxes. bastards were the heaviest thing by far bc i have a concept art book collection and those books are weirdly shaped and hardcover and even just five of them is heavy enough for me to struggle. though, in my defense, i had a physical therapist test my muscle strength and she openly said "Oh, god, that's not good" lmao rip) and like.. my lil sister is an athlete, sure (and built like a model jfc she is so tall and dainty, hOW?? shes got muscle mass but its so stretched out that she looks like she doesnt have much. but bitch works out for fun, runs at least a mile every morning before college classes, and does sports and dance for shits and giggles. and also she's STEM. beauty and brains. jfc, i love her, her future partner better worship the ground she walks on, i swear. but yeah, her favorite way to show love is acts of service and she likes doing physical labor, so when i asked for help all hesitantly and ready to bribe, she was like "Okay!!✨️" before i even finished and rejected any form of payment that was more than a starbucks frap. she's back in college on the other side of California now anD I MISS HER COMPANY.. AND ALSO HER MUSCLES...) but she truly carried all my book-boxes like they weighed as much as a handheld-basket of laundry

and i even asked her "Is that an okay weight? I can grab another cart, we can take as many breaks as you need, would you like a water, thank you so much for doing this, are you okay??" and she just laughed like a mix of Santa Claus and the blonde girl from Utena (/positive)

she was so fine with what she was carrying. the only reason she agreed to a cart was to make shit faster with less trips, but she didnt care about the weight of the boxes themselves. she even said "These aren't nearly as bad as you made them out to be!" (as bad = me telling her I couldn't lift them. i had to make the boxes and tower then ontop of one another and put a book in individually at a time. after they were filled, i could not lift those boxes at all). she openly found these boxes easy to deal with. they were about Office Depot File Cabinet size bc i worried using a BIG box for books would be truly unliftable. but yeah no she was fine. my sister was very open about it even and did a couple of tricks for the comedy of making me go "EY EY EY, BE CAREFUL, DONT HURT YOURSELF" and fuss over her

so. like. i know she'd be able to carry this board-game box i am currently struggling with, probably even one-handed if it wasnt for its awkward size of it which would necessitate she use two hands. and you might go "shwarmi, your sister is probably not an accurate representation of a person's strength, im sure those boxes were heavy, books are heavy, so are board games" and im like:

the book-boxes were likely heavy but mangeable for most people. the board game box was definitely heavy-end-of-the-"light" weight-spectrum. also, my sister is a great barometer for me because i am in F-tier, maybe D-tier on a good day, and she is A-tier. she is likely not S-tier, she isnt a body-builder, doesnt have obvious muscle definition, no a six-pack, no evident biceps or calfs, nothing. so most people are B- or C-tier. so she is actually a good litmus test for me, personally, because i see the strain on a B-/C-tier person and i spiral into thinking they feel like me when they DONT. so seeing my sister have no problems or strain beyond "this cart that your storage unit supplied sucks to steer!" makes my dumbass go "...ahhh, i see how different me struggling versus a B-/C-tier person struggling is now that i see my sister's limits and think of her proverbial Strength Stat as ridiculously high". i have a few other friends (and a brother, who teagically lives far away from me boo) who pride themselves on their strength that similarly make me do a double-take of "OOOOOOH.. oh, okay, my frame of reference has been righted, okay"

really brings to light a reminder that i still have a SHIT TON of internalized ableism. it is very hard rn to not kick myself for only doing three boxes in one trip today. my dumbass really wants to go "DO A NORMAL PERSON AMOUNT OF STORAGE MOVING" but, my comrade, i am not normal. i am disabled. i very physically weak. there is a reason why my loved ones and i make frequent jokes comparing me to "sickly Victorian ghost children" (hence why my @/playbychoices account had that John Mulaney quote as its blog-title for so long). i can do these three boxes today. hopefully, i can do the equivalent or more tomorrow, but i also could have another week-plus long flare-up like i did this past period before today. so. today. just three. very sadge. but alas, the way things do be

anyway

praise me for this stupid fucking board-games box. the other two were easy, even for me. one was even the same awkwardly medium-large Costco box but just had lighter shit inside. but the board game box??

shit sucked. im sitting next to an a/c with an ice-cold drink and my feet up, trying to get my likely-POTS-raddled body regulated back to a mangable level

but still

shit sucked

[kanes-the-fan-of-stuff]

Pretty common to happen, actually. Handsome actors are easily type casted. Johnny Depp, Matthew Mcconaughey, Leonardo DiCaprio... And they managed to go beyond the stereotype. Our handsome freaky Sam Reid is doing the same. I mean, I watched The Riot Club and Belle years ago and I couldnt even remember he was in those! Now that Isaw him as Lestat, i went to check his filmography and voila, both movies were there, and I feel so sorry, but those roles were so... Boring 🤣🤣🤣 good movies tho, and I am sure he learned a lot from those, so... 👏👏👏. Now lately I have rewatched Belle many times because now I'm hopelessly in love with John Davinier (he is so intense in that role, you can see Lestat in it actually), and The Riot Club... Well, I try to avoid that one, it makes me too angry, but I highly recommend it (I classify it as the best HORROR movie I have watched).

So... Our Sam Reid got rid of the gentle white catholic aura kinda boy, and he got his dream role. Same for Jacob Anderson (Grey Worm, i cant even remember his storyline).

PS: In dale jennings defense, I think that role also leaves the stereotype behind. I feel like Sam Reid goes after roles that rebel against status quo. A closeted rich kid, a bisexual vampire, another closeted bisexual man, a priest, an advocate of black people's rights... There is an intentiom behind those roles, which makes me respect him so much as an actor, because he is taking risks, even tho the industry is more open-minded now.

Before Lestat...

Here's where I admit to (previously!) being entirely unimpressed by Sam Reid.

I've been vaguely familiar with him for about a decade. I'm Australian, so I've seen him pop up in bunch of different things. And honestly, he never struck me as having much more to offer than a very nice jawline (I've never been so wrong).

But seriously, these were the kind of looks/roles we'd all come to expect from him:

And something about how they always dressed and posed him screamed rich, white, private school educated, straight man.

And (Sorry Sam!) but that's sooo boring!!

Yes, I admit, I was clearly wrong.

But in my defence, who expected this man in 2021:

To become this man in 2022:

Let alone this man!!

He's practically chewing the scenery!!

Sam! I have to know!!

Was this a journey for you?

Or were you always, secretly this gloriously Extra?!!?

Did entering Lestat's character free up something beautiful and new inside you?

Or

Have have you been denying us this intoxicating extravagance this whole time?!?

I never thought I'd say this, but I've finally learned to appreciate Sam Reid....Actually, I adore him!!

I'm so pleased he's finally getting an opportunity to demonstrate his capacity and range. But I'm also utterly perplexed... How did no one realise he was so ridiculously talented before?

And also completely fucking gloriously weird!?!?

Did he have a really shitty/conservative/unimaginative agent holding him back? Was he typecast?

How was this absolute freak of nature missed?

I know so many ppl hated the Archer coma seasons but as a vintage nerd can i just say at least for dreamland and paradise they nailed it (i never was into star trek stuff so no idea accuracy of space).

In Dreamland they nailed screwball comedy and noir. Charlotte (Cheryl) nailed the Veronica Lake/Carole Lombard thing so well. Like srsly i was impressed how they nailed that patter (and then even more when i learned they dont group record).

Krieger’s story is awesome af esp given his alleged history awake. Im also quite fond of robo cat. While noir rarely went jewish during the war his reveal of what he did/does is very noir. Ive heard actual Germans say the German wasnt great, but i felt it was as good as we could expect. I fucking didnt catch til now my 90th rewatch how they van heflined krieger during Lana and Archer’s patter (srsly its just like Green Dolphin Street).

Lana’s story isnt much (did love her singing tho) but i loved the band and how they dunked on Ray and made Archer their bitch. I really wish we got more of that.

I think everything tied up nice. I wasnt wild about Poovey being non gender not cuz she couldnt be but cuz it felt like an anti fat choice. However it did speak to how much Archer thinks of Pam.

I do think Cecil and the hooker would be a good real life pairing.

The gore is pretty extreme esp for this show but not the majority of the season. The hot dog bit grossed me out the most.

Paradise really nailed the early 30s explorer movies vibe. Again Charlotte killed it. Archer was perfect and him and Pam were spectacular. Love Crackers.

Cyril became an overbearing villain even vs Dreamland. He really had to work thru that shit and by Space he mostly had. Same with mother.

And Lana again was barely existent. I think thats fascinating for what it means back in real life

i started this blog for fun and because i enjoyed writing fanfiction, but i eventually grew out of the kny fandom because of some of the people i met who made this whole tumblr experience just an awful experience

everyone is so obsessed with numbers, gatekeeping, and stirring the pot with stupid rumors that are either twisted, didnt know the full story, or just aren’t true (taken out of context even) there were also people from other fandoms that were literally just crazy and hate anons (i dont think i received as many as other people but it was still sad to see other people get bashed on)

my blog was my babey and i put so much work into everything i did, but i eventually started to hate my blog as a whole, it got to a point where i couldnt even consume fanfiction anymore because i was afraid that if it was similar to something i wrote i would get called out or cancelled for it

even tho no one owns a single trope, theme and etc.

my tumblr is no more and i dont think i’ll ever come back, but some of my works can still be found on AO3 (:

i still get those late night writing ideas i think about posting, and maybe i will post them, but i’ll prob assume a different alias by then 💕

much love to everyone who followed, supported, loved and defended me and my blog; it’s a privilege and honor to be considered a blog you once enjoyed

edit: not everyone likes me and thats okay thats life, everything is also spoken over text too so its hard to understand someone’s tone, it’s also frustrating when people dont read rules before requesting bc i worked hard to create them, i also started the blog at 19 i think so i’ve grown and learned from my own mistakes i made in the past and interacting with others; but also base your opinion on others based on your own interactions not through someone elses

(Y/N) as a comfort character for MHA

I’ve seen a bunch of the mha characters being a comfort for readers, but i haven’t found many about the reader being the comfort character for them. This will most likely going to be angsty cause I love the pain :)

Characters: Izuku, Bakugou, Kirishima

~~~~~~~~~

IZUKU first found you when he was looking through some new fighting styles. There were pictures after pictures of people in their own positions, but you caught his eye. You were in the air with your hips twisted about to send off a kick, your face determined and ready. In the beginning he thought it was cool how the both of you used your legs during combat. 

Though, throughout time, he started to feel like he more than idolized you. He looked up the show you were in and watched it a million times. Learning that you were simpler to him. You were trying to save people all around the world with this unknown power you were born with. He loved your personality, how you handled things, he loved everything about you. Izuku began daydreaming of you being in class with him, how you two would train, and how you two would get along.

 After a mouth of looking up information about you, he was head over heels. He began reading books about you *cough*x readers*cough*. He’d imagine moments he knew he can’t have with you. 

All his daydreams would leave him crying at the end of they day, wishing he could feel the way your hands would feel running through his hair. Or how you would most likely give him a word or two for hurting himself. What it would feel like to hold your hand. Be next to you while you took you power naps. How funny it would be when you were in your random bursts of energy

Izuku laid on his bed, his back facing his T.V. and listening to the sounds of you talking about something on the show. He didnt pay enough attention only listening to the sound of your voice while he held one of his pillows to his chest, tears rolling down his face imagining it was your frame in his arms and were just taking one of your many naps. “Why cant you be here?” he cried digging his face into the pillow as your laugh echoed off his T.V. and into his head. 

BAKUGOU is a big boob for romance books. He found a book about you and some guy having a enemy to lovers kind of romance. At first he almost put the book away finding it stupid, until he ACTUALLY started reading it.

 Bakugou absolutely loved the kind of person you are. He loved how you didnt let the guy get you easy. You teased and flirted only to act like it never happened. You were level headed and damn were you sassy and stubborn. When the guy would make a move, you would go to defensive mode and shut his shit down. 

Just the thought of you flirting with Bakugou would make a smile form on his face and his heart would skip a beat. He began to read the whole book series and found himself to imagine himself as the male protagonist trying to get you. He would never say it out loud tho. 

When he found out the author was making a show about his books. Holy shit, Bakugou lost his mind. You were just as he imagined, if not better. His chest felt heavy when he saw the first season. Your smirk killed him, your laugh made his mind blank.

Though, once his friends started to get an significant others, Bakugou couldn't help but want YOU. It killed him everyday. He’s imagined day after day how he would confess and how you’d react.

It pissed him off belief how someone that could make him feel so real be a part of his imagination. Bakugou through punch after punch to his punching bag, sweat dripping down his stiff figure and his glare forward with tears brimming. He hated how he couldnt hold you. He would 100% love you more than that loser could ever. 

Recently, All Might lost his place as a pro hero and Bakugou has been blaming himself. His brain was racked up with guilt, but once you pop up he melts. He wished you could break his door down and hold him down, telling sweet nothings. 

Bakugou threw a few harder punches to the bag, the last hit he kept his knuckles on the bag. His tears finally falling down his cheeks despite his glare on his face. “Fuck this shit” he grumbled, his arm starting to loosen as he brought his forehead to the bag thinking as if he had his forehead to yours. 

KIRISHIMA heard of you from Denki. He blabbered about this new anime he was watching and tried to get everyone to have a hang out session and watch a few episodes. Of course, Kiri went dragging Bakugou behind him. It was at the end of the fourth episode that you finally showed up. His first impression of you was indeed manly. You were shown wearing a full set of armor following along the runaway princess to find help for her kingdom. Ironic huh? Your sword slashed through the assassin before he could touch the princess. Your helmet covering your face until you took it off, looking down at the princess as the moon shun brightly behind you making you look like a god.

 At least to Kirishima you did.

After that episode everyone start to do different things and start a game instead. Yet, all Kirishima thought was you. He was courious about how your personality was, what you liked, what you were and werent good at. He waited until everyone left and went to denki asking to watch more with him. When they both finished the three seasons he was in awe. You were a complete badass! In a way, you kinda challenged him without trying. Literally, right after he finished the show with Denki, he had the biggest arge to go workout 10x harder than normal.

He learned your favorite coffee and began having it everymorning, your favorite food and he tried to make it. Only to burn it and burn his hand. He couldnt help but think about how manly it would be training with you adn how the both of you would colide.

Bakugou found out about Kiri’s little fictional crush and grew irritated. “They’re not even real, why try so hard.” Bakugou growled sitting on Kirishima’s bed as Kiri was doing some pull ups. “I know they’re not, but I like to think that they is. They help me go through workouts” Kiri grunted dropping himself to the ground and throwing a smile to Bakugou “So you think of them is your girlfriend/boyfriend?” Bakugou looked at him with a judging look. Kirishima’s face exploted, his shoulders stiffening at his sides. “I mean, I guess.. But they’re super manly and motivational!” Kirishima tried to explain to Bakugou as he cackled at the red head.

Terrible Waste Part 2 done *sigh*

Here, have more of my thoughts *throws them at you like I would a crumpled up dirty napkin while staring at the old table of the booth were sitting in at the sad Space-McDonalds*

Spoilers ahead

The THEIAs would have done something like that without a second thought though- just make something into a mindless shell of a person (in this case a worker) with no trace of who the person actually was but instead a copy and pasted version of what they think a person should be

Juno. Babe. Youre being kinda hypocritical about telling them to get therapy later. Buddy and Falco dont count as therapy. 

Rita, I love you. Thank you for existing ❤️ (also, please compare these things to the THEIAs because it doesnt look like Juno is going to)

"You got 5 minutes and also I'm gonna be making another call. Good luck :)" Babe- 😂

OH MY GOD MICK MERCURY I LOVE HIM SO MUCH

God, how is Nureyev going to react to this? 

Holy shit, did Dokana bring Wilco back from the dead??? WAS THAT THE COMPANY THAT DID IT?!?!?!?!

Juno worried about Mick and Wilco :( 

Please stop using the word Pal. Its doesn't sound right. 

"If you turn the lights on and off, he starts dancing." Oh my god, Mick-

"Old Timer" *cue happy chemicals*

"Being so naturally charming and likeable :)" hey, thats still character development!

Ah yes, Juno's screams of fear, how I've missed you

"I wont be angry. You can tell me."

First of all, youre a liar. Youll be pissed that he was trying to pull his arm off 

Second of all, you can clearly tell that Juno has been reacting poorly to your anger this whole time and NOW you try to throw him a bone??? Bro. 

"Now do I get to use my blaster?"

*sigh* "Yes Juno, now you get to use your blaster."

"'bout goddamn time!" 

He's confident in himself now! :D I can hear the hair flip!!!

Nureyev, you know you find this attractive, dont lie. 

PETER HAS A GRAPLING HOOK?!?!??!?! I need a fic thats "5 times Peter Nureyev used his Grapling Hook and one time he didnt have to" or something. This is too good to be true. WAIT. WHERES THE MABEL PINES GRAPING HOOK MEME?!?!??

Perfect 🥰

Juno fawning over Peter whike he climbing. You just know he's staring like a lovesick idiot. 🥹

Oh my god, hes picked up on Nureyev lock picking techniques and finds them adorable!!!!!

I can imagine the scene from Tangled when Eugene gets all the way up into the town and Rapunzel is tied up... who's going to be Gothel here and stab Juno from behind?

Meele, no.... please...

"I wont sacrifice you in the process of finding him... i couldnt bear it." Awwwwww 🥺

Also, remember that next time youre mean to him, Nureyev

Yeah babe, youve been treating him worse than he deserves. Remedy that please, for the sake of all of our hearts. IM GONNA NEED SO MANY FICS TO FIX THIS, especially ones about Peter doing things for Juno to try to make up for this and Juno trying to tell him he doesnt need to but Nureyev keeps trying anyway

Calling Juno brave 😭

Admitting vulnerability 😭😭

Taking accountability 😭😭😭

"I'm glad you are here." I feel like ive been waiting for this all my life. 

"Unfinished business..." (@44:57) You know hes just staring at Juno with longing eyes when he says it... 

"Did I walk in on something" The speed and volume at which they said no 😂😭 Theyre faces are probably like an inch away from each other at that point tho... 

Peter fumbling over his words 🥺

Mind reading powers causing him pain... its the pull all over again...

Peter sounds in so much pain... he just finally apologized to Juno for being an ass, he's trying to grappel with the looming possibility of losing Slip, and now his one light in the dark is being ripped from him... 

VIBERT, I STG.

Haven't listened to an episode since 16 Tons Part 2 came out. Planning on binging the latest 4 tonight. Wish me luck...
