oh, now I remember why I stopped reading d.gray-man at volume 14.
EDIT; Actually, I'm going to elaborate on this, feel free to revoke your likes if you disagree.
D.gray-man fan "theories", especially the ones popular on the subreddit, drive me up the wall, some of them are in direct contradiction to the themes of the series, or came about because people only read fan translations/don't even read the official properly (here I acknowledge that Viz isn't helping by translating the names shittily, and yes I mean travesties like "Waiizurii".)
The most egregious one being the "Allen is a grown adult who got de-aged" thing, because literally the only persons word we have to go on is Nea's, and the fact that like 90% of the fandom choose to believe him is absolutely insane. Is it because he's popular for some odd reason? That's weird to me because, as a Sheril stan, I wouldn't believe a goddamn word Sheril says. Why do Nea's fans believe him?
Next, while at first I was skeptical of the idea, I now really really really hope Grave Of Maria actually IS Katerina Eve Campbell, because I hate "Road is Katerina" even more as a plot point.
And speaking of Road, I will be livid if "Road isn't a physical entity as we see her, but a dream being projected by someone sleeping somewhere" actually comes true. Road has done WAY TOO MUCH in the plot to not be a 100% real physical entity of her own, from the eye stabbing to the kissing to the action rescue, and her interactions with the other Noah, I will literally be so fucking angry about this one.
Anyway, sorry for tacking this onto an existing post, I didn't want to clutter the tags. Please react as you see fit!

As a woman who devoured 6 seasons of Outlander in 3 months
I find that Sam was very brilliant in his performance in the first season
Look at him here, even his voice was different and masculine
I don't know why in the following parts he was pulled into the artificial performance style
Even his tone of voice was changed to a ridiculous tone
I find that Sam's creativity was killed and Jamie character was made ridiculous as they presented him to us
Yes they succeeded in that.. But they couldn't change him, he is the crazy chemistry between Sam and Caitriona behind the scenes .
Dear Creativity Anon,
Bearing in mind I distractedly watched the first episode of 7B and not at all the second one, I think this calls for a more nuanced approach.
I do agree with you S was stellar all the way up to Season 4, when things started to spiral downwards, somewhat. I think it's obvious and I don't think we do him - or ourselves, morally speaking - any favors trying to put on a brave face and ignore facts. While C was, in my humble opinion, the weakest link in Season 1, she slowly started to be more comfortable with Claire and have a better understanding and intuition of that character from Season 2 onwards, only to accompany S down the drain at the same above mentioned point on the show's timeline. I am sorry if that sounds brutal to some - blind, enamored fangirling never quite did it for me, but constructive critic is always my cup of tea.
We could probably spend the rest of the night debating reasons and consequences, Anon, much of which are well known - and carefully denied - by many in this fandom. And while many might ascribe the 'new', later seasons S to an older JAMMF character he doesn't seem to master as perfectly as young, fresh faced JAMMF, I agree with you that he looks perfunctorily disinterested too many times for my liking. But then so does C, a woman her Stans worship the earth she's treading upon all day long, while nastily belittling her co-star and - remember, ROFLMAO - Partner Everyday. In a nutshell, the older JAMMF is a formulaic shadow of the fascinatingly versatile younger self and the older CEBRF is a frowning matron, with a passion for ether and terrible, terrible pitch. This is why I have always said I would like to see them both being offered the opportunity to create totally new characters, in totally new projects that would send them out of their respective acting comfort zones. That would be the real litmus test, Anon: not the feisty matriarch in Belfast, nor the endearingly stolid paramour in Love Again. They can do better, that much we know and they deserve better.
When a good, gifted actor suddenly starts to mix things up and lose it, there might be other reasons at play. And I know I will irritate many and I don't care if I do, to be honest. I am still amazed at the complete lack of discernment of this fandom's Stans. They seem to ignore the crucial accountability of that increasingly ineffective army of scriptwriters, producers (we both agree them being Exec Producers is little more than an incentive, with little real leverage on creative decisions) and directors - Matt who? directors XYZ who? And God forbid we'd bring into the mix Gabaldon's increasingly verbose, mediocre output and questionable narrative choices. Her complete lack of historical sensitivity: painting a dull Paris background while she was sitting on a cultural goldmine. Her obsessively cheap sensationalism: raping and uselessly traumatizing ALL of the main characters (why? is happiness that boring? and if so, what does this tell us about their creator?). Her abusively interspersing the intrigue with uninteresting, obscure botanical references, while forgetting to properly tie in the narrative lines. So much so, that I began to increasingly find disagreeable to continue reading the books, from The Fiery Cross onwards. Throw rotten tomatoes at me, if you wish, but I think life is too short for bad literature. So many other formidable things to read, so many other worlds to discover - why would I, as a reader, give this contemptuous, megalomaniac lady my time and my patience, when I have Tiziano Terzani's wonderful travelogues begging for my attention, on my nightstand?
You might ask, with good reason and common sense, why am I still committed to watch the show. And the answer is simple, Anon: when I start something, I strive to properly or at least decently finish it. And despite all the #shitshow, the cruelty, the childish lies, the gaslighting, the traculas and xenas and trolls, I am still here for that love. This, Anon, is something that nobody could ever take away from Those Two, spare perhaps their lesser selves (and that is nobody's business). But I am not worried, in that department - just aware and perhaps a bit cynical, too.

I started listening to Fourth Wing graphic audiobook and so far I'm enjoying it but then I thought which quadrant acotar characters would join ->
Bat Boys? All of them would join the rider quadrant ofc and third year. Morrigan would also join them but she's 2 years younger than the them, so she joins with Feyre. I don't have a back story for them now since I have to read more to remember the world building.
Lucien would join healers. He's not here for the bloodshed since he hates it, so I think it's in character for him to join healer's quadrant. I can see him as one. (I thought he might join infantry but then again combats and war isn't what he's made for) He's also the third year.
Now the sister:
Feyre would join the riders. She has reading disabilities, and it was always her insecurity, that her mother never failed to remind her. Even though she likes books and stories but, in her heart, she's always been a hunter and a fighter, so she joins the rider's quadrant and since she's our main character she's going to get the biggest dragon because I said so hehe. Her mother ignores her at best and never made her displeasure of her joining the riders known even if she had one and quite frankly, she doesn't care about her mother's opinion. Out of all the three daughters, his father was more confidence in her succeeding only because of the sheer amount of stubbornness in Feyre.
Nesta who's the third year and is in a stablished relationship with Cassian. she always wanted to be in the scribe's quadrant, but her father had other plans, so she was forced to be in the rider quadrant even tho her mother disagreed (her mother wanted her to marry and groomed her to be one but also her father would get her to train and getting her ready for being a rider. Let's say she had a hard time lol) But for her mother's disagreement alone, she was a little more willing to join the riders since she's going to be something her mother never wanted her to be. She ofc hated it at first but started to love it because of Cassian and her friend Emerie.
Elain is going to join the scribes and is a second year. That's it!! Even tho her father made it abundantly clear that no child of his will be anything but riders, he made an exception for her, she's secretly her favorite child and knew his princes wouldn't survive. And he saw how she was born to be a healer.
Now Gwyn... Of course she's going to be in the scribe's quadrant. Like come on now!! She's a third year and she love to be in the library and is among her precious books every chance she gets. And a certain shadow wielder has his eyes on her and whenever he gets tired of rolling in his bed, he secretly visits the library to be around her<3 (ps: there's a fanfic for this, so all this happened because of that fic hehe)
Emerie joins the infantry. 6 months before joining, her wrenched father breaks her hip and leads to her having a hard time to sit straddle, but she also doesn't want to be either a scribe or a healer, so she joins the infantry. The very first training is very hard for her to the point of always being in pain. That's when Cassian sees her and make it his mission to help her and train her to the faster healing journey for her hip and getting her stronger and she also meets with Nesta during those time (because she can't keep away from him...) She also bonds with Nesta and they find a mutual hobby in each other which is reading smutty books!! Which leads then to visit the library and meet Gwyn.
Yup that's pretty much it. Although I still haven't made a plot for Bat boys and Morrigan which I will... this might have a part 2!! (Even three if I ever delve into the ships as well)

vent time! i have to disrespectfully disagree with people who are now suddenly saying "it was clear from the start that bucktommy was just a short-term thing". the whole issue with the argument is this: 911 has never been the best written show, and especially everything after s4 has been capital R Rough. this is no succession, the bear, arcane. you know, tv shows that have incredibly story continuity, character writing, and pacing. people say that bucktommy was not written "well enough" as if that is a valid sign in the 911 universe that the breakup was a sure thing. i call bullshit. when was the last time that the show has wrapped up even the simplest storyline in a satisfying and serious way? when was the last time character development happened and was take seriously? when was the last time the main characters didn't feel stagnant and the stories didn't feel repetitive? when was the last time the show didn't go in circles and choose the easy or sometimes most offensive way out? 911 had enough meat to tell compelling stories for 3 seasons, afterwards it went noticibly downhill. people who say that the "bad writing" of bucktommy should have been a clear sign are talking complete nonsense imo. tommy was the first ever love interest who checked all the boxes, who got verbal approval of bobby (who has watched buck grow and knows him incredibly well and who did notice a positive difference in buck!), who had everything that we have been told buck needs in a partner for 6 seasons. the canon text spelled out: this could be the one.
we were not delusional for that because, once again, i have to point out: the wonky writing is not a bucktommy problem. it has been and still is a general 911 problem. if they butcheted the bucktommy writing while they did great with everything else, yes, then i would agree the signs were there. for 911 standards of writing, which are very low in comparison to good tv shows, bucktommy has actually been done pretty damn great until that fucked up breakup. people say "they didn't even know each other after 6 months" and i retort "athena first admitted that she had a fiance before michael to michael and bobby like 30 years (?) after the fact". this show has been fucking up storylines left and right for years, and most characters and dynamics had many moments that were terribly written and poorly handled and were only enjoyable when you ignored the idiocy of it all. this show doesn't care about timelines, doesn't care about logic, doesn't care to base the drama within the constraints of a realistic depiction of society and laws. it retcons things for shits and giggles. the mains only get through it all thanks to plot convenience and plot armor. like please. we try to find logical solutions (e.g. tommy lands the plane) and the show will choose whatever is the most ridiculous idea (12 yo lands it).
looking at the bigger picuture, bucktommy had incredible potential for 911 standards and could have easily worked long-term if only the writers wanted to do so. the simple problem is: they apparently don't want to put any more work into it. it is as easy as that. many things in this show never lived up to their full potential and got wrapped up in the most ridiculous ways that nobody could have ever predicted. like, my bad for expecting some leftover common sensen and logic in the weewoo show! at this point, it feels like a skit starring clowns that will do the most random shit. rinse and repeat.
in that context and thinking back to all the butchered storylines, bucktommy had actually been a fucking masterpiece so far. now, it unfortunately just joins a looong row of things that could have been impactful and meaningful if only the show had good storytelling.
how could i have ever knew a breakup is coming when the writing literally said i wrote them for 8.05 as an stablished couple who where doing ok just so the breakup could hurt more!!! hurt who??? cuz most of their fandom were queers, so there is that.
and yes i agree with you. i dropped the show after s6 and came back to it ONLY bcz my friend told me buck came out bi and start this season only bcz i was invested in buck and his relationship journey cuz i knew for a fact the other part of this show is not gonna get any better and the fucked that up to.
they only claim they KNEW they’re gonna break up cuz they were saying it since 7.06 lol
and it piss me off when they say there was no chemistry (which i disagree) cuz this is so stupid. lacking chemistry is something WE see as audiences it is not a thing for characters in the story, they don’t see it and they don’t feel it so it can not be a reason for them to breakup, like??????
all and all bddie shippers has been dancing this dance for 7 years now and yk what? i hope they do get what they want cuz 911 is not gonna change the writing so i hope they do get bddie in this exact writing they seem to loooove cuz i know it’s not gonna be all fair dust and unicorns lol
(i still love buck and i hope hope hope they handle his sexuality better at least from now on but im not optimistic)

Given how underdeveloped Vaggie (Why was she named that), Charlie, Millie, and the majority of the female characters are, I won’t be suprised if Lilith turns out to be a one dimensional bitch who only exists to make Lucifer more sympathetic (I like Lucifer’s character but still)
....I disagree, Lilith could actually be a good, or even great antagonist for the show, possibly being one of, if not THE best villain in all of Hellaverse...
...if she's not being written by Viv. I've already talked about Velvette and why she's on of Viv's best antagonists before but she's relevant to my main point; Velvette is a character with an actually cunning, entertaining and well-developed personality that stands out from other antagonists in Hellaverse, making her feel like a breath of fresh air compared to all of Viv's one-dimensional assholes, being an actually good villain...she's also a female character whose episode she got a major focus on...wasn't written by Viv.
We all know Viv is incapable of writing antagonists let alone female antagonists, so, the reason why Velvette ended up being so great compared to Viv's other antagonists is BECAUSE she wasn't being written by Viv or Adam. Viv can't write antagonists or women, so when one of her female antagonists ends up being so great, it's because she's not being written by Viv, but rather, someone who knows how to write female characters.
In episode 2, the episode that IS written by Viv, and where Velvette makes her first appearance, she has a more typical fashionista personality compared to episode 3 (though tbf that's still more of a personality than 99% of Viv's other antagonists), and episode 3, the episode not written by Viv, she has a fully fleshed out personality that makes her a fun antagonist. I really don't think that's just a coincidence.
An guess what? This same thing happened AGAIN in episode 6 with Sera. Sera is the head seraphim and leader of Heaven, she greenlit the exterminations in order to protect Heaven but you get the feeling that she doesn't WANT to do this, that she doesn't feel great about letting Adam and his army murder people bellow. But she feels like she HAS TO in order to protect Heaven...and her sister, Emily.
Initially, in my post about Emily, I said she has no purpose or point as a character, and removing her changes nothing. I was wrong. Emily DOES have a purpose within the show; it's to be a main motivator for Sera, and Emily's existence adds depth to her character. Sera lets the exterminations happen because she also wants to protect Emily and deeply cares about her, she holds her sister close to her and wants to keep her safe.
Sera is a character with real nuances to her actions, she's not just a one-dimensional villain, she's not exactly good either, she's...an actually nuanced and morally grey character that can't be put in either good or evil? In a VIVZIEPOP show???? Like, not saying that Sera is a super deep or compelling character or anything, but like, she's an actually nuanced antagonist with real depth to her...
...and that's because the episode she's in was not written by Viv, just like with Velvette. The reason why Sera is an actually nuanced character is because she's not in an episode written by Viv.
The fact that this happened twice does not seem like a coincidence to me. The reason why Velvette and Sera can be actually decent or even good characters is because they are in episodes that aren't written by Viv or Adam, both of which in all of the episodes they write show the many problems with HH and HB's antagonists. And, ultimately, Velvette and Sera ended up being two of the BEST antagonists in all of Hellaverse because they weren't being written by Viv or Adam.
So, there COULD be a possibility that Lilith can be a good or at least decent antagonist if the episodes she gets a significant spotlight in aren't written by Viv or Adam. If they are...then well, ya, Lilith will probably just be Stella 2.0 or something.
But if she's being written by either of the two guys who did episodes 3 & 6, then she could end up being a good or even great character. The bare is very low for antagonists in these shows, but when they aren't being written by Viv or Adam...they can be kinda good.

On "Daddy Issues"
Ok, I know I'm a bit late to the game here, but I was gathering my thoughts after experiencing episode 5 and 6
Let me preface this with the fact that I am a Hazbin Hotel fan; it's cringe and it's not the best writing in the world, but I love the characters and the concept and the art. I know a lot of people disagree and completely despise it and hey, you do you, but this is a silly little thing I enjoy and think is fun
but oof. episode 5 and 6 were rough, execution-wise. Also worth mentioning that episode 5 followed on the heels of episode 4, which was dealing with a lot of heavy topics and gave Angel a lot of character development very quickly and had a wonderful song and a budding relationship between Husk and Angel that was fantastic, so to get a confusing and overwhelming yet completely inefficient episode (ep 5) and then an episode with SO MUCH HAPPENING that it absolutely bowled you over with plot points and world building that weren't given a single second to breathe was really disappointing. I'll put the meat under a read more, but that's the thesis
this post is just gonna be on episode 5, and I'll make another one on episode 6 bc christ almighty both of them are gonna be long
Episode 5 was something I was really looking forward to-- Of the main cast, Charlie and Vaggie seemed the least intriguing to me (oh, did I say "seemed" past tense? haha! they still most definitely are the least interesting!), and I wanted to see how they would introduce something they've been building up to for a while: Charlie's famed "Daddy issues"!
Turns out, instead of actually keeping it as a point of intrigue for Charlie's character and using it as a point of tension to show that hey, Charlie isn't actually a perfect person, and she's also in pain with the rest of the sinners because her own family relationships are falling apart, they solve it in a single episode. That's right! The long-awaited, complicated, divorced parent and child relationship that twisted Charlie into a validation seeking, people pleasing princess that "wants to fix other people so she doesn't have to deal with her own daddy issues" (quote by Husk) is solved with a charming performance by Jeremy Jordan and a song!
Look, it's no secret I'm a huge fan of Loser, Baby-- I clearly have no qualms with storytelling through song. But you cannot song-plain this one away. We've established over 4 episodes that Charlie and her father have kept in minimal contact for seven years. That's a Long time (don't go trying to be like, oh time to charlie works differently, bc that shit's not established, and everyone in the show still treats seven years like a long time). We know that the last time they called each other was 5 months ago.
"More than Anything," solves basically everything by making the following points
Charlie was inspired by her Dad's dreaming
Lucifer was ashamed of his failures and hid away from her
Lucifer does, however, want so so deeply to know Charlie
Charlie wants to know Lucifer
They love each other <3
these are fine endgame points. Dare I say... good endgame points to arrive at?? But you can't stuff ALL these revelations into a single song and call it a finished relationship arc when they haven't spoken for real in 7 YEARS. Also, making Lucifer so goofy and silly and fun and charming is Not helping the establishment of his character as a self-hating former dreamer who doesn't want his daughter to make the same mistakes he did. It just turns him to tumblr sexyman cute quirky sympathetic never did anything wrong and loves his daughter, completely downplaying his absentee parenting.
You can't have him turn from "I do not care about your life. I do not care about your project. I will not ask about your passions and your dreams. I am already ashamed of my own." to "ur so right bestie!!! dreaming is so slay mama!!! I love you so much you're my little baby girl I love you so much, you're right and I will support you!!!" in the course of a single episode without like.... at least 3 real, in depth conversations happening. The song is beautiful, but you can't poetry your way out of an actual relationship arc.
BUT! But, but but! The fault does not lie completely with Lucifer, but also with Charlie. girl just forgave him??? For everything????? Despite having been so scared to call him at the beginning of the episode? It's very unrealistic for a kid to just accept that a parent loves them apparently so so deeply when they've never seen proof of it in the last idk just spitballing a number here SEVEN YEARS. If you want to make the crux of a failed parent-child relationship miscommunication, you're gonna have to get into the ugly--- the grieving of what you could've had earlier, the wondering why you didn't reach out earlier, the anger at why they've suddenly changed now--- and you're gonna have to explain why the miscommunication went on so long.
sometimes, if you have a pair of completely uncommunicative people, seven years may be reasonable. But Charlie is open about her passions! She's public! She constantly reads about "The Story of Hell" and paints Lucifer in a positive light! And Lucifer is quick to reciprocate any interest Charlie shows in him! He's quick to offer help, to spoil Charlie and show love! (Lucifer's points are two points that make SEVEN YEARS of MINIMAL CONTACT and MISCOMMUNICATION make ZERO SENSE).
Tumblr media
additionally, Charlie's lowkey only point of intrigue that was set up (her relationship to Lucifer, the King of Hell) is now just... kapoot. solved. pish posh. now she's a done character.
THEN EXPLAIN WHY I STILL DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT HER???? I haven't seen her actually struggle in a way that's not played off as a bit, we don't get a real charlie breakdown monologue, there are no stakes for me as a hazbin hotel viewer to want everything to go well for charlie besides my acab rad leftist ass being like redemption and forgiveness is good and ultimately benefits society
she's fun, she's bubbly, she's kind! but those are all basic things we knew from minute 1 she was on screen. I need to see her struggle. For a main character, she sure as hell doesn't feel main. And I expected better female characters from female writers (feat. in my next post, Vaggie????? What the hell?).
goodnight new york city, you've been great!

My version of Loonatics Unleashed (Part 2)
This is just my interpretation of this universe of "Loonatics Unleashed", don't take it as a summary of the series or as absolute truth to interpret your version. NO! It's just MY view and you have every right to disagree. Furthermore, there will be low-level words (even though I censor some) and there may be sensitive topics for certain people. Besides, this refers to the universe of Loonatics Unleashed, so for those who don't care, you can skip this blog, but for those who are a fan or if this interests you, you can continue reading. Part one of this blog is at the link below if you want to see it.
Part 1
Part 3
Tumblr media
Hi... I'm here again! Yeah, right? I posted that ls Loonatics blog in an unpretentious way, not expecting so many people to see it... And then I come across the post being reblogged and liked by A LOT of people... Ok, I'm exaggerating... But that amount is almost the same one I get in my regular Darkwing Duck posts, which is a surprise... I thought there weren't THAT many people who knew and liked Loonatics. So, right? Part 2 for you just to clear my conscience and talk about some other ideas I had. And it's not the character redesign yet, you'll have to wait for that... -w-
I again want to give credit to @drakepad-luv-2000, she was one of the reasons I'm doing these blogs (I'm sorry I got your pronouns wrong before, seriously-). And if you, a Loonatics fan, want to make a blog with your Headcanons, I just say that you can give credit to both of us. Having said that... Let's go! Again I will divide this post into two topics... The first will be highlighting more things in the story (theme, episode structure, tone of the series, etc.) and the second will be talking more about the characters' changed personalities and powers to adapt to this new version of me. So, we continue...
Story Narrative (Reinvented)
Tumblr media
If you saw the post before this one and already know a lot about the change in the backstory before the story and the past of the protagonists, you will understand this topic better. It's much more about what the narrative structure will actually be like... In this case, again it would be divided into seasons, and here... I think I put an average of at least 6 seasons. Then you ask... "6 SEASONS FOR THIS VERSION OF YOU?!?! WHY?!?!"... Because I'm crazy and I like to suffer- I'm joking, but there's a hint of truth... I literally I have so many ideas for this series that there is no way I can only do 3 seasons. It has ideas for villains, for OCs, for the protagonists themselves, even for some secondary characters! So it will have to be 6 seasons AT LEAST (because I'm going to increase the number-). But, well... Having defined how long this series will be... What would be the ideal tone for it? I'm going to talk about the first three seasons, which kind of gives an overview of the rest of the series.
First Season
The first season, as you can imagine, is an introductory season, which introduces the protagonists, supporting characters and initial villains, where it also presents many of the dynamics and shows the main plot of the story. The season that people, most of the time, find the most boring because it's the beginning, but in this case it would be equally important, not only because it's the beginning (obviously), but it defines a lot of the dynamics of both the heroes and villains. I also want to explore a lot of their personalities, so there will be solo episodes for the protagonists (and considering that the seasons have an average of 20 episodes each, it's reasonable), this includes Zadavia, because honestly in the original series she didn't have a personality or defined relationships. It has the classic "villains of the week" episodes, but in this case... I like to ONLY get what was relevant. In other words, villains like those ice Vikings will be discarded because they are not exactly relevant, unlike Mastermind who has a story behind her that is interesting. I'm talking about the FIRST SEASON, because, in addition to helping a lot with the writing, because we'll have about five villains to stay (including Optimatus), it's also possible to add an additional supporting character (some are OCs or reimaginings of characters? Yes, but that's because the series only had Zadavia as a supporting character at the beginning, so... Leave me...). There is the fact that there will also be a villain in the middle who, basically, was from the second season, but I changed it to the first because he is too important to discard for the second... Which is General Deuce, who will be at the Optimatus' side as his right-hand man (he's basically the villain's main "henchman") and you can draw a good parallel with Ace. As you can see, the first season really is an introduction, but I made it more cohesive, less "random" and gave the characters more focus.
Second Season
The second season is where the story really starts to have a clearer narrative line (even with fillers), it's where the narrative starts to take more serious turns and we get more of the characters themselves. Do you have OCs? I think there's a lot here... But there's also a lot of change in terms of characters... Like Melvin The Martian and Rip Runner. These episodes include more of the characters that are inspired by Looney Tunes. Support characters... There's Zadavia, obviously... But there's Tweentums who is basically the prince of a planet there... Here I'll give him a different personality and that includes changing a lot of his relationship with Danger Duck (because honestly I felt really sorry for Duck for taking care of the brat-), and also changes Sylth Vester, which... You can believe it, but this villain here I'm going to give a nice makeover and he's going to be a villain of respect! As for the conclusion of Optimatus... In fact, I'm going to leave a lot of it for the third season, where it will become clearer what could happen at the end of it there. In the second season there will also be a lot of the evolution of the main characters individually, kind of like how they would continue here and so on, where everything will combine in the third season. And speaking of her....
Third Season
The third season is the famous time "When sh1t starts to stink". There won't be any character deaths (or maybe there will be, I don't know...), but this is where a lot of the things that happened in the previous seasons will come to fruition and with force in this third. This is kind of where most of the villains I highlighted will come together and cause chaos... In other words, there will be dynamics between villains, internal intrigues, etc... It's also where a lot of heavy scenes can occur and kind of It's where it separates from what the series was before to now, where the direction becomes more serious. Okay, it was like that before, but now it's more so. And this is where the Loonatics' direction becomes most unpredictable. What do I mean by that? It's a secret, I won't tell you now... But you will understand in the distant future. I'm just saying that some characters will have suffered a little...
So the tone of the seasons kind of escalates... In the next seasons there may be comedy again, but at specific moments that are conducive to that, especially because it can't be 100% serious. But that's kind of the tone of the narrative... Now let's get to what I consider the soul of the story...
Personality and Powers of the Protagonists (Reinvented)
Tumblr media
I'm going to speak again in opening order, so... Let's get started...
• Ace Bunny
Okay, I'll admit that Ace is my least favorite... Because his personality in the original series is a bit "empty"... But considering he would have the vibe of a confident but insecure character... I got it from base Sonic's personality and also Leonardo's (from Rise of TMNT). But I think this is the one that, ironically, would be the most underestimated by the villains and basically the civilians he saves... Because he's charismatic, but he doesn't exactly have a certain "hero look". He may be confident, but his experience is zero, just like in combat. As much as he learned to fight, his type of fighting is much more street fighting, he doesn't have a lot of technique, so his arc is kind of knowing how to be a hero (just like most of the team). But there's another issue that anyone who's seen his story already understands between the lines... As for his powers... Honestly, I don't like his laser beam powers so much, because they don't have any parallels with Bugs Bunny... So I changed... His powers NOW are, first, being able to summon any MELAN WEAPON (that is, without firearms) and explosives, and the second is to make long-distance portals (with the condition that he has to KNOW where it is, because otherwise it's the same situation as him ending up going to the wrong place.
• Lexi Bunny
Ok... Honestly... I couldn't change ANYTHING about her personality... Because she's already very good, what I changed most was that her passion would be more for music and her powers... And also that she and Ace are brothers- But, powers! Here I didn't change that much, but her psychic rays were converted a little to Telekinesis, that is, she can levitate herself and objects and people, and the power to manipulate plants will become more evident.
• Danger Duck
This is another one that I didn't exactly change much, but I went deeper into it... Here he is another insecure character who always compares himself with others, but who hides this through arrogance and arrogance. He also has some Tsundere traits, that is... He pretends that he doesn't care or doesn't care about his companions, but deep down he cares about each one of them. And also... He is very VERY careful with children, he opens up more to children (you can already see that the Tweentums relationship and he can change a little-). As for the powers... I keep them the same, the random energy orbs and the teleport really suit him...
• Slam Tasmanian
Slam is another one that I ended up changing A LOT... And here I get a lot of the fans' interpretations, of him being the "big daddy" of the group, in the sense of being the one who protects the team the most and who is there to listen and help everyone. I still maintain the characteristic of him being a glutton, because it really draws a parallel with Taz, but here he has the ability to speak, but he prefers to remain quiet and more to himself. The powers... I changed it a little so as not to be a "copy and paste" of Taz... In this case, the powers are, first, going into bestial mode (something similar to the Hulk, so he only activates this mode when necessary , because he attacks EVERYTHING in front of him), and the second is the same as one of Ben 10's Aliens, which is that the objects he ingests become balls of plasma that he releases at enemies.
• Tech E. Coyote
I will say that I didn't change his personality or powers much... But I added more things... Besides him being autistic, which makes him have a little difficulty communicating or understanding other people's emotions, He also can't stay in public for a long time... In other words, he has a certain degree of social phobia. He can talk to friends and family, but speaking in public is almost IMPOSSIBLE for him... And he ends up having low emotional intelligence (or EQ), which results in him not knowing how to take care of himself very well when he's in trouble. hyperfocus or making some invention. As he had said, his powers remain the same.
• Rev Runner
My beautiful and adorable Roadrunner with ADHD- Okay, seriously... This one I changed some characteristics, but again his personality is more in-depth. Like the fact that, in the beginning, he was a little afraid of both Slam and Tech, because they are both kind of predators... Again the issue of hyperfocus, but in Rev's case, he manages to control himself in a certain way, the which also causes him to take Tech out of the lab several times. He is also more curious and mischievous in this version, especially because he is the youngest on the team, and he is also quite a gamer. His powers remain the same, with the exception of his GPS vision, because he doesn't use it much in the series and because it's very powerful (and you can't work with it that much...).
Conclusion
Tumblr media
Well, guys... That's it! Sorry if it was simpler than the previous one... I just didn't have much to say here... But tell me what you think, your opinions, etc... BYEEE!

There are many ideas that could happen for Inside Out 3, and fans of Inside Out are very desperate to have this be good. And how do I say this? Well. I have a top ten list with honorable mentions in it that I want to explain to all Inside Out fans. Well everyone on the Inside Out fandom This is the...
Tumblr media
10. Get 8 New Emotions!
The emotions idea can work well. Pixar knew perfectly on how they added four new emotions like Anxiety, Envy, Embarrassment, and Ennui. And those characters actually were clever, emotional, and hilarious to enjoy. But here are my new emotion ideas and what their personalities would be like.
We all know Love is going to be the new emotion approaching in Headquarters. But about six more. I think Courage should be the second new emotion, where he would make Riley brave and confident on her work and hobbies. Surprise could be the third emotion to have Riley get shocked with excitement. Frustration can make Riley irritated from stress in daily moments. Trust get have Riley be able to care for others to believe in. Pride can have Riley be self worth for her self being and for others. Shaudenfreude is a german emotion that would make Riley laugh at others misfortune. And the dark emotion, Spite. He would be in control to manipulate the emotions for his bitting to make hateful memories in Riley's mind. He would be the main villain and Joy's nemesis. And would make Joy fearful for her life and happiness from him. Who knows, if Toy Story 3 found a way to fit in lots of characters, we can see that happen for Headquarters. And speaking of characters.....
9. Who's Actually Running Riley's Mind?
Remember when the documents where sent to Joy when Demo Day appeared for the emotions in Headquarters. People theorize that if new emotions appear. They're the prime minister. But I disagree because of that mysterious document sent to Joy. I think they have a Mind Chairman/Councilman running the mind. That's what Anxiety and the others came to Headquarters. Because the new emotions need jobs when Riley is growing up.
I may sound crazy about that. But if that's not true. I don't know what is. Because if Osmosis Jones can have a mayor that cared less about Bill Murray's health/diet. So can the Mind Chairman be a jerk in the mind not caring elsewhere.
8. Bring In New Places!!
If we want to bring in new places for the nine emotions to go to, I did say the Mind Council. What about The Puberty Park but now can be changed into The Love Park. And Epiphany Bay can be in the back of Headquarters. Instead of being next at Long Term Memory. Because what if other places in the mind are exactly anywhere in the circles, if the emotions can go all way in the back of the mind. How about they go in front of the mind?
Which would mean The Mind Council, The Love Park, Epiphany Bay, and Riley's Mind now practically a MindTopia would built up Riley's head well, due to her being a smart girl. If she can graduate middle school early, then she has time to work well at high school, hockey, and college.
7. Build Up A Motion Picture Soundtrack/Album!
When I was watching Dream Productions. I never have noticed before anything else in the show when I watch it. The show had an original song from music pop artist, Lily Elise called "Sweeter (When You're Dancin')". And that makes me think. Can Inside Out 3 have original songs for their own motion picture soundtrack?
I do have a few music artist performers that would perform original songs written by the composers themselves. If any music artists can perform an original song. My Choice would be either Kid Cudi or P!NK. Or if you want to add licensed songs into the third movie. Which Pixar rarely does now in then. It could work. Even if "Back In Black" from AC/DC can play in Riley's First Date, the movie could be a lot more upbeat to get our moods going calm, excited or even mellow. Pixar, just go straight ahead forward with that idea, and have fun.
6. Give Animators less stress and get paid! And let Fans give ideas!
Pete Docter knows how many fans of Inside Out are our there that actually grew up with the movie itself. And it could be fun for animators to make a sequel out of it and make fans happy right? Wrong.
Most often the rest has been good. But what fans complain about is that Pixar wad abused by the overwork environment Disney gave them. By paying less for Bill Hader and Mindy Kaling and giving more money to the other stars, not adding LGBTQ moments after the gay kiss complaint in Lightyear, and due to Disney taking a toll onto the production and animators working to the limit where they aren't payed but exhausted. If Kathleen Kennedy can leave Lucasfilms. And if the MCU can reboot after Avengers Secret Wars. So they can give the animators and the fans of Pixar what they need fixed. But the problem is. The damge is done. Even if the marketing goes low, there will be fixing into this production.
5. Get Riley A Boyfriend!
The scene in the first Inside Out had the Imaginary Boyfriend, and Dream Productions had Riley meet with her dream boy in episode 3. Why not give Riley a boyfriend in the third movie.
If she feels comfortable around Val Ortiz. And due to her colorful striped shirt. That would make the confirmation that Riley would be bisexual. They don't have to show it fully. But they can show how Riley's care is like for her friends and family as the emotions control her often.
4. The Care of Epiphany!
We had the Core Memories, we had the Sense of Self, we can have the Care of Epiphany. It would show how Riley has gotten her respect and care for her own self being and for others perfectly. And the memories that are transported in there can become beliefs for not only her mind. But for her passion.
And remember how Sadness and Anxiety gotten character development, Joy would give Fear and Disgust to be in charge and to protect Riley's care. And that's when my next topic comes by....
3. Emotional Character Development!
My ideas that Pixar should use that Fear and Disgust should have character development as they are in charge as co-leaders to help Joy with the issues coming by. And even the others like Ennui, Anger, Anxiety, Envy, Sadness, and Embarrassment are in the assistance. And due to Anger helping Joy in motivating the mind workers to fight back the panic attack. Why not Fear and Disgust motivating all the emotions to fight back against Spite, get Joy back, and save Riley's care.
And due to the interactions of Fear and Disgust getting cut out by Disney. They should not cut out any scenes for Fear and Disgust. I bet they should care about each other. And make them as a genuine weird yet loving couple in it. And give it a love sub plot just like Toy Story 3. I bet everyone would like it very very much who are Inside Out fans.
2. Josh Cooley as Writer and Director!
I know I know this Pixar animator have left and made one of the greatest animated Transformers films ever called Transformers One. But this director wrote Inside Out for Pete Docter and Meg LeFauve. I think he should write and direct.
If Brad Bird can write and direct all three Incredibles movies, why not Cooley himself. He could easily win awards. His direction off of Megatron is great. And his writing off of the emotions in Inside Out was funny as well. And he did wrote the Soul short film, 22 vs Earth, he could come back if he wants to. It is a decision. Make good decisions, Cooley.
Before we get into the #1 pick, here are a few honorable mentions!!!!
• Riley having a little brother!
• Spite as the frightening yet threatening villain since Hopper (A Bug's Life) and Syndrome (Incredibles)!
• Bring Michael Giacchino back as Music Composer!
• Have Riley meet her own emotions for the 1st time!
And the number one pick of all time for the ideas and things for Disney Pixar's Inside Out 3 is.......
1. #Bring Bill & Mindy Back!
How many times do I have to say this to everyone on Tumblr?! And to Pixar! Bill Hader was born to play as Fear and Mindy Kaling CAN actually voice act as Disgust, she never actually sounded like that in Velma. They know how to make these characters likable and relatable to everyone.
Mindy Kaling may not be great. But she was great as Disgust. Bill Hader is great casting as Fear. Because he's got such a comical face. Look at it.
Tumblr media
HOW CAN DISNEY RESIST HIM?!?!?
The bottom line is... it's Bill and Mindy or no Bill and Mindy. If Ice Age 6 can bring back it's old returning cast in the sequel. Then bring Bill and Mindy in it and just split the money at a 50% chance. Now that's what I call, A Right Move.
So what do you guys actually think?
Do you think the ideas of mime are great. Or does Pixar need to work on their own stuff. But they can work it out! Let me know. See ya!

Okay so I just watched the 7th season of The Dragon Prince and i need to vent because it was so fucking stupid!
Spoiler warning for anyone actually reading this.
Like season 1-3? great. Amazing actually. Season 4-6? pretty good. High stakes. I liked it. Season 7? What the actual fuck was that?
Like why would you raise the stakes so high and hype up what could be an amazing character arc and final battle just to have it end in the most stupid way possible?
Why have the entire arc of Ezran having to grow up way too young, and having to deal with all this responsibility and grieve at such a young age just to reveal that his father is a fucking bird? Yes that theory was going around since day one and it would've been a fun conclusion in season 3. But with waiting so long this just undermined Ezrans entire character arc.
Why have Ezran be this fucking angry and vengeful towards Runaan but never really Raylla or Queen Zubea? Who were both huge parts of the whole assassination plotline!! They literally just made him angry and vengeful to change his entire attitude back to the way it was before within a few episodes. That's not character growth, that's just a teenager having fucking mood swings!
Why raise the stakes so high, have Callum be the one to be ready to sacrifice himself and realize that he's ready to do whatever it takes as long as he can save the ones he loves just to not go through with it? We've been through his dark mage arc like 2 times now why do we have to repeat the whole thing a 3rd time? And in the end he doesn't lose anything, he doesn't learn his lesson, he just does the same shit again and again.
Why can't you let characters grow? Claudia lost everything, she lost her father. Why not let her grow from the grieve? Why did they just give her another father (literally) to lose?
Also what the fuck was the mother bit? Would it really have been too much, to add like 5 minutes and get an actual real conversation between their real mother and either Soren or Claudia? She could've literally been like 'I don't care' and it would've been better than this illusion bullshit.
Also we know now that Claudia is willing to kill. Why not kill anyone off that we actually care about? This might sound stupid but Zubea didn't show up once this season except for the one fight where she sacrificed herself for her son.
Most people aren't gonna care that much for the archdragons if they barely even appear in the show! They're literally just introducing characters into the show to kill them off so they don't have to do anything to the main cast.
Why doesn't Zym get the same treatment as Ezran when his mother literally JUST DIED IN FRONT OF HIM but in the next scene everythings lighthearted and he's apparently done with his grieve?
Kill a main character. Literally just one. And I might've not hated that finale.
Also why introduce the Novablade like that and then not actually get to use it?
I know they wanna make more seasons and maybe it's so they can use it later when he comes back but it's still just really fucking stupid.
I'm sure a bunch of this has already been said before and also a bunch of people are going to disagree with me here but like - what the fuck was that? I'm honestly more disappointed than I was with the Game of Thrones finale

Ranking the Sanders Sides characters cause I'm bored
I'm bored so here's my ranking of the Sanders Sides (+ C!Thomas and Nico)
Disclaimer: Just my opinion, feel free to disagree. Also, I do not hate any of these characters, the ranking is based on my preferences.
Ranking under cutoff
Number 1: Remus. This ranking is pretty obvious if you take 5 seconds to look at my blog. I have brain rot when it comes to this silly guy. I made a whole fucking character analysis of him. This whole special interest in this goofy character is all Destinies Intertwined's fault. This stupid fanfic made my autism attach to him and not let go (not hating on Destinies Intertwined btw, the fic is a classic). He is constantly in my head, and I am cursed to be that way until I am in the grave, maybe even more if there's an afterlife.
Number 2: Janus & Roman. Tied for 2nd place is Remus's brother and husband best friend. I cannot pick between the two, but if I had to I'd say Janus ranks a little bit higher because his character design is cool, but I honestly don't really know. The stoplight trio (as I've taken to calling them) is probably my favorite trio in the series. Roman having a connection to Remus propels him close to the top of my list, and when I have to pick one of the sides and Remus and Janus aren't options, my brain usually defaults to Roman. Overall, very nice characters.
Number 3: Thomas. The main character of the series is somehow the most underrated and least talked about character in the fandom. C!Thomas is great. He's a really good character for the sides to bounce off of, but even without the sides, he's still a really good and compelling character. His conflict within the series feels immensely relatable and it's so satisfying to see him start to come to the conclusion that he's an imperfect beings who's deserving of love. I love him, he's great.
Number 4: Nico Flores. Nico is such a nice character when paired with Thomas. You really start to love their dynamic and hope that they can work out no matter how much the odds may seem stacked against them. I do kind of wish that we knew more about him as a person. Right now, he's only been a character in two episodes, those being Flirting with Social Anxiety, and also had an appearance in the endcard of What Makes a Perfect Gift? so we don't know much about him. I do like how he's been characterized in the fanfics that I've read, but I'm not factoring in fanfics for this ranking. But going off of his character when paired with Thomas, he's really good.
Number 5: Logan. At first, I didn't really care for him, but he's honestly grown on me. I do pay more attention to the characters above him because of my bias for them, but I do sometimes find myself thinking about Logan. WTIT and orange Logan has also really helped with making him more compelling to me as a character. For most of season 1 and a little of season 2, he seemed kind of one dimensional to me, but with the orange reveal in WTIT, it really helped me look deeper into his character and connect with him more. I do kind of wish his design had a little bit more detail to it instead of just being a shirt, pants, shoes, tie, belt, and glasses, but other than that, he's a pretty good solid character.
Number 6: Patton. My original favorite. I don't have much to say about Patton. I feel like I only had him as my favorite at first because my ex-best friend said he represented me the most at the time. After my Remus obsession started, I did pay less attention to him, but he is still pretty nice. His character arcs in season 2 where he learns to not cover up his feelings and learns to trust who Thomas is instead of constantly questioning if he's a good person or not are really compelling and something I really needed during my shit high school experience. I do think they kind of played the goofster part of his personality up too much in season 1, but I can give him a pass in that regard since the story wasn't really that developed at first. Pretty nice character though.
Number 7: Virgil. I kinda have a love hate relationship with him. Sometimes I really like him, and sometimes I don't really care for him. Nothing against Virgil, he's a really good character, I love his sassiness and aesthetic, I just think he's a little overrated as a character. I mean, most of the fan stuff I've seen of Sanders Sides leans really heavily into Virgil, which makes it more difficult to find stuff for the others. Season 1 leaned a little too heavily into him and his arc as a character and that affected his general reception as a character as well as the screentime for the other characters. I do understand that the whole main point of season 1 was Virgil's character arc, but I feel like his arc takes away from the impact of the other side's arcs in season 1. I don't really have this problem in season 2 however since after his character arc, the focus of the series shifts away from him and gives more screentime to the others, which really helps.

Tumblr media
1) Detroit become human was about how white robots have it just as bad as African American slaves. cyberpunk 2077 alongside its glitches had racist elements such as orientalism, demonizing black men in the main story, and a horrible implantation of black features in the character customization. the Stanley parable had an in game video of a white man lighting a black child on fire. all games in the grand theft auto series showcase racist stereotypes of black criminals. all south park games have multiple racist "jokes" that are just as offensive and stupid as the show. minecraft on consoles had skin packs, one of which featuring the main character Steve wearing an orange prison jumpsuit, and being one of only two skins where Steve is depicted as Black.
Black people have been telling you about games that are racist for years. but you simply refuse to listen or care.
2) BLM is not an organization that all Black people are a part of. BLM stand for Black Lives Matter, and is a movement, not an organization, that is against police brutality. of course you don't understand the difference between a movement and an organization because you think all people you disagree must all be friends and all agree with each other and are secretly plotting to ruin your life. there is that Black Lives Matter Global Organization Fund, which IS an organization. that is a collective of far-left anticapitalists activists who are part of the Black Lives Matter movement. but not everyone who is part of the movement is part of the BLMGOF. when you say "BLM has never done this", who are you referring to? all Black people ever?
3)
Tumblr media
4) "sex class" holy fuck kill yourself
5) "wait till tras find out..." firstly, stop with the tra shit. say tranny with your whole chest. because that's what you mean. you want to call us a slur, but you don't want to face the consequences of calling people slurs. so you make up weird words and acronyms, which are just tranny spelt different ways. it's the same energy as calling someone a fag and then saying "what? all I did was call you a bundle of sticks! there's nothing offensive about sticks, is there?". it's middle school level bigotry. and it's pathetic and makes you look insane.
6) you're trying to make the argument that trans people don't know that markus pearson sucks. but minecraft is the most popular game in the world. every already knows that markus pearson is a terrible person. he's a stupid racist sexist antisemitic transphobic cunt and I hope he fucking kills himself. but a) he hasn't had anything to do with the game in years, and b) he isn't actively funding for the death of trans people.
I have my own criticisms of minecraft. mainly the antisemitism with the villagers. because, surprise, they were created by an antisemite. but despite trying to distance themselves from pearson, Microsoft has done absolutely nothing to change this gross part of the game. I have been vocal about this for years, yet people like you don't give a shit.
also, minecraft is incredibly popular with autistic people, and people who are autistic and people who are trans overlap a lot.
also also, Lena Raine, famous for her work on soundtracks for Celeste and Deltarune, also composed some of the best songs ever for minecraft. why is the important? let me direct you to the best and shortest "personal life" section on wikipedia I've ever seen
Tumblr media
actual trans people work on minecraft. minecraft and mojang are filled with queer devs who actively support and are part of the queer community.
so when the current dev team of a game has trans people actively working on it, doesn't invite the creator to the 10th anniversary celebration, does literally everything they can to get rid of all mentions or ties to the creator, and have gone on record saying they want nothing to do with pearson and have cut ties with him completely, I think that means that the game is not transphobic like you want it to be. it's not that no one cares because "he's a man". it's that minecraft isnt a franchise that uses its profits to fund genocide.
also, as I was saying before, minecraft isn't perfect. it still has antisemitism, it still has a racist past, and it still has a shitty ex dev. and while they can't change the past, they can change the future by removing the antisemitic tropes that surround the villagers. yet they don't, and I am very vocally upset and have expressed my views on this subject many times.
7) but you know a game with far worse antisemitism? hogwarts legacy. far more antisemitism than any transphobia. this game is literally the blood libel myth of Jews stealing the blood of white children. the goblins, which have large noses and control the banks and have a shofar and kidnap white wizard children and are secretly working with the wizard nazis are quite literally based off the antisemitic lies and conspiracy theories of the new world order, blood libel, greedy Jew, and holocaust denial. even on their own, these tropes would be absolutely disgusting and repulsive to any person with half a brain. but even though this game has more antisemitic lies and myths than a 4chan /pol/ thread, people like you don't care at all. because "it's hairy potty! and I love hairy potty! the creator hates trans people and that's based ... uh... I mean... I have nostalgia for the series! (and I don't give a shit at all about Jews)"
interestingly though, when this was pointed out to you in the replies, you said "no that's not true" and "so what? that's no reason to get mad" and "actually YOU'RE antisemitic for thinking that goblins are supposed to be Jews". and personally I think that anyone who says that last one deserves a bullet though their skull.
8) also, I find it very interesting that you're complaining and crying and pissing their pants when trans people boycott one (1) game, yet they refuse to listen to anyone else, especially Black people or Jews, when they suggest boycotts, and also refuse to boycott any games with extreme sexism and misogyny in them, despite pretending to care about women.
I have never seen a radfem say anything negative about fat princess, the guy game, dead island, overwatch, persona 5, grand theft auto, and hell, even hogwarts legacy.
if you didn't know, this game was developed by people who were part of gamergate. and if you don't know what gamergate was, it was a massive controversy online where women were saying how sexism in online games is bad, and a bunch of men said "no, and you're wrong! my opinion is worth more than your lived experience". and then some of those men went on to make what you think is the best game of all time, that contains extreme amounts of racism and antisemitism, and sales of which are actively funding a genocide against trans people. but I'm assuming that none of those things are negatives to people like you.
tldr: op need to kill themselves

Aftermath
Miles Ownership timeline drama
Tumblr media
Public Announcement
So, apparently Mobox87 has blocked me (not surprising or upsetting. Not like I'm going to have an outburst like I did in 2016) and messaged Kevonica about my post on Miles due to how she's brought up in it. I just want to clarify that she wouldn't have been brought up at all if she didn't put Miles on a pedestal for any issues that he causes with artists or with Mobox87 fans. So, yeah not my fault you get dragged into drama because Miles has to bring you into the argument for his defense.
But-
I will just say that I won't do another rant post on Mobox since I don't want to thrive on that to where she's becoming more uncomfortable being online than she already is. I don't support her IRL stalker and online stalker madbox91 harassment nor do I wish her to harm herself like she did before over Zombify's Twitter thread and feel that she needs to be taken off the internet by deleting her accounts all over social media.
I've come to a point where I don't care if Mobox87 apologizes because her and I will never be on good terms which the same could be said to her ex-friends that were once close to her. Plus, her apologies won't ever go into details on what she's done wrong since they always go on to say "I've done some bad things" (like what did you do?) or victimize herself saying "I was a manipulable person" (that neglects the fact that you made bad decisions on your own sense of mind not by others requests or demands). Either way, it's whatever at this point. I don't need 21 apologies for her to say publicly or privately to everyone.
Honestly, what goes on with Mobox87's art is whatever at this point. As long as she keeps explicit content on a second account that isn't advertised on her main then that's fine. Some may disagree but that's a post I'll talk about soon since I do want some understanding on what can work with mature story tellng.
So, Mobox this won't be the last you'll hear from me. Not until I make one last post on giving a sneak peek of my script segment "Understanding" which will later follow up with a Maverick video posted here. For now, do whatever you want Mobox. Anything and everything said about you has been done.
In other words, I'll leave you alone for now since I do want you to succeed expectations to prove that you have changed as a person online.
Anyways!
Miles responded to my timeline post, specifically part 6 of my post cause I showed how he wanted to be in a committed relationship with a minor that was 16 who barely becoming 17.
Apparently he's been calling out Kevonica, Cagney and I out. Kev has been getting labeled as homophobic, racists and a pedophile with no evidence provided against her.
Tumblr media
Most of the stuff said on his new account is just propaganda to make him look like he's the victim in the situation I called him out in. It's quite honestly no surprise he'd stoop so low as to label us as something we're not with out any evidence.
So just know that Miles is saying shit out of his ass.
One example being that he posted on his Instagram account "human_anthony_dust" and reposted on his new Tumblr account, calling me out as a pedo still and lying about how I "claimed false age" to his OC that he bought from Mobox87.
Tumblr media
Which again he never announced the age of the OC publicly. Even then you can age up characters in drawings but I didn't since the OC is 30 years old or in his 30s. He's complaining over nothing.
Vinsnake is literally William Afton created as a fantasy character for Faces of Nothing. William Afton is a character in his 30s in which Mobox87 herself made Vinsnake around that exact age as it was originally attended.
Tumblr media
Again, Miles never made the character 16 years old until he bitched about my drawing in response for harassing Yuriviq on DeviantArt.
Ironic though-
You made a character 16 years old last minute while you were trying to get with someone who you said was a 16 year old.
Even more ironic, that most of the OCs you kept the longest were kid OCs from Mobox87 while the adult OCs you owned were sold off first.
Tumblr media
Doesn't really help your case after admitting you wanted to be with someone under 18.
Oh but wait-
I suppose you did take Kev's own words into consideration.
Tumblr media
But that contradicts your deleted post before publicly sharing that "Important info".
Tumblr media
You're obviously lying to protect your image and make Kev look guilty for showing me her conversation with you so I can look like I'm the dumb one jumping to conclusions.
The last response from Miles was this. Still being misleading and excusing his own actions
Tumblr media
The following list says.
• Kevonica, Cagney and I look down at people for simple human mistakes.
Ah yes because saying I like a 16 year old barely becoming 17 while still under 18 when you're 21 surely is a "simple" human mistake.
Heck maybe the harassment all over Amino without remorse was a "simple" human mistake.
Surely, that IP ban you did to someone over a drawing of your paid OC was a "simple" human mistake.

• Lie about others and only care what they think is the correct answer.
Miles, that is you as a person. You fit that description cause you are a liar and only care what you think.
• Sick of our mental abuse, harassment and cuber bullying
Mental abuse? Where is the evidence on that of us ever doing that? Harassment and Cyber bullying is what you do since you fucken spam our DMs at 7 in the morning to talk out of your ass!
Tumblr media
• Time to take a real adult step
You're a literal man. Whose a cry baby and the epitome of a bitch online over your petty nonsense. Like get that in your head. I'm not the one with entitlement over stupid reasons and lack of common sense.
Anyways, I'm just going to end it here because this asshole begged for a response after I went silent. So, here it is because you practically asked for it. This was your moment.

So, I finally watched the Archer finale..
WARNING. SPOILERS AHEAD FOR INTO THE COLD!!!
So, Archer has come to an end. Its a lot for me to process, this is a hard one for me, the past 6 months have been exclusively Archer for me, I've fallen so far for a fictional character. I'm going to try my absolute best to collect all of my thoughts in one post for this. I'll try not to spoiler too much. But I think this is necessary for me so I can help process this loss for me.
To say I'm happy is an understatement. I'm beyond relieved and grateful we got the proper Archer ending this show so badly deserved. The season 14 finale was a disgrace, and the way it could have ended would have been tragic. This show ending is tragic enough, but thats just my view on it. Hyperfixations are hard ya'll.
I think the way they ended the plot for this show was very cleverly done. While I don't think Adam Reed would have went in this direction, I'm still satisfied with what the writers did. Seeing everyone band together was wonderful, and there were a couple twists I wasn't expecting at all, but it goes without saying, nothing can be perfect.
Some initial thoughts, pros and cons if you may, but not really.
The growth the characters go through is really really cool to see, notably Archer. When he says he doesn't need to know who his father is, that's a huge milestone and a step towards some emotional maturity. Sterling has so much trauma and is overall a very impulsive character, but letting him have his moments of clarity is always nice to see. There is a good balance between his impulses and realizing that his actions have consequences. I don't think there was any way Slater could have been saved in the end anyways.
There was no main focus on any specific character. Every main reoccurring role in the show got their own moments in this finale, which I am super grateful for. Season 14 had a hard time dedicating specific episodes to certain characters like in the earlier seasons, so this finale did a great job at giving everyone a bit of spotlight.
Focusing on the main characters instead of random one off characters was super cool and something I appreciate as well. Katya, Barry, and Slater were all characters who made the biggest impacts on the show by far, not to mention they're also fan favourites. But seeing Rip Riley was super exciting as well!
The early season throwbacks!! In the elevator shaft you can see the old ISIS sign and an old Cherlene album :3 If there was anything else I probably missed it as there was a lot of clutter, but I always get so so excited when there's early season callbacks. It shows that's the writers really do care about these characters and their stories. I was happy to see Milton!! Milton supremacy!!
The ode to Malory was wonderful, I'm so so happy they did that. Lana's speech at the end was a good way to wrap everything up for the crew.
There isn't much to say negatively, these aren't necessarily things that make this finale bad, just things that made me sad and were a surprise to me that I'm not sure how I feel. This is completely opinion biased and you can disagree all you want!
Slater dying. I'm really sad that one of my favourites ended up dying. I loved the very erotic moments between Slater and Archer and their initial fight was really intense and fun. But seeing Slater die wasn't really all that satisfying for me, except it allowed Archer to grow more and let go of some of that trauma. RIP Slater </3 You were a son of a bitch
Morphing Barry and Katya.. This is a weird one for me. I'm not sure how I feel about this at all. I guess the only fun thing I can say about this is that we got some fun classic enemies to lovers. I dont particularly LOVE that trope, but with making Katya a antagonist, it was quite the choice.
The settings.. I think it was fitting to have some of the settings back in Russia, but Rio was quite the random choice. There was a lot going on and at one point I kind of got confused as to where everyone was at one point, in one scene they're at the Agency, the next they're in a safe house, the next they're in some other random area, that was a bit hard to follow, but a lot happened in an hour, and there was a lot going on. The title "Into the Cold" was clever. Also I hated the whole crypto thing. That genuinely felt like a cheap cop out for some plot holes. Cyril doesn't seem like the type of person to be interested in crypto as one would figure he'd be pretty knowledgeable on how that stuff is shitty. If Lana saw those mines you know she would lose her mind LOL
Overall, I am happy with how things were wrapped up. I was very worried near the end because we hadn't seen AJ at ALL, or had any mention of her, so seeing the scene at the end with her and Sterling made me really happy, knowing that Archer kept in contact with Lana but not anybody else really stung, but Sterling saying he "hates goodbyes" really stuck with me after this finale finished. Saying goodbye to this show is not easy whatsoever, I have such a strong connection with these characters and cast, and my love for Cheryl is eternal. Its hard for neurotypical people to fully understand, and this is a grieving process for me, but I have the support and friends to help me through this, and I will always have these guys around, since I can rewatch this show as many times as I want. I will continue to make content and hopefully start writing more maybe. This world is so expansive and so many things can be done as it falls on the line of realism, slice of life, and science fiction. I love everything this show had to offer, and I'm so grateful for the dedication and work that went into this show.
If you read this far for some reason, thanks for reading.

I don't usually slide into the ask box of people that I strongly disagree with. It's usually utterly pointless and I usually adhere to a strict "live and let live" policy...but your RD takes are just so deeply unsettling that I am making an exception.
Claiming that RD is softcore porn now is just...not true.
This is not even remotely softcore porn. This is barely erotic. And I think your assertion that the show feels like a masturbatory fantasy from the writers has a lot more to do with the fact that you're personally unhappy with the show's direction than the show itself. It's a bad faith reading on the show, steeped in pearl clutching, Hayes Code romancing, nonsense.
Takes like yours, whether they mean to or not, are begging for the Hayes Code to come back. Begging. "Oh, TV shows should only show good morals and whenever they show something morally ambiguous, it should be clear where the moral failings are".
That's a big part of the Hayes Code. And I, for one, reject that ideology with every fiber of my being. TV shows do not need to be parables. They are under no obligation to preach good morals to their audiences. Their purpose is to express ideas!
And Riverdale is doing a bang up job, if I do say so myself (even if I personally feel it could have gone further with a lot of its plots). It's meta-commentary on Americana, film, and television is unmatched. Its refusal to be any one thing is both brave and fascinating. The show has remained true to its vision despite pissing off much of its audience, which is rare in a landscape of shameless pandering for views. God bless Riverdale for that.
(Speaking only of the show itself here, not its marketing.)
But back to the main point. You claim no one will want to hire the Riverdale writers after this and that you think they should go to prison. That's...honestly a deeply conservative mindset and you're not alone in thinking that, but you are highly visible. So, I bring my thoughts to your ask box.
I implore you to look beyond the surface of the media you consume and to recognize that our reactions to stories have a lot more to do with our own feelings than the stories themselves unless we specifically step away from ourselves for analysis. And hey, there's nothing wrong with having opinions on your own blog, so feel free to dismiss me as a little hater. <3
I apologize that this has gotten so long and if I sounded nasty. I am just so deeply disturbed by the prevalence of purity culture in fandom these days. It starts with "think of the children!" and "No kink at pride!" and ends with the eradication of anyone who doesn't fit into the conservative ideal for culture. I'm not saying that you want that, per se, but be careful because those that do want that think similarly.
Thanks.
Okay.....first of all, and I mean this genuinely, kudos to putting your name behind this. This doesn't happen often, so a true fist bump to you.
How generous of you to come here and offer unsolicited and incredibly condescending pseudo-intellectual commentary on what I am allowed to post on my blog. Very generous. But hey, I'm high profile! Lil' ol' me! Look Ma, I made it!
Now we gotta get in the weeds here. Yeah, I am not going to take back or apologize for how softcore-y this show has been this season. I stand behind the statements I made about how creepy it is to watch a grown man's masturbatory fantasy play out on screen. In the last episode alone, they have sexualized pedophilia and grooming (with a teacher student fantasy) and children playing a board game.
See the thing is, it would be purity culture to suggest a woman CAN'T have sex or be sexually attracted to someone. We spent 6 years with Betty as someone who liked sex, and that was fine! We even spent s5 with Betty who used sex as a bandaid. That wasn't healthy, but she was an adult woman having sex. It was fine. Fifties Betty has sex as her ENTIRE character. There is nothing else to 50s Betty. She's horny. She wants to have sex. She wants to have sex so much that she's actively predatory. That's it. And having one and only one character motivation kinda flies in the face of the whole "feminism" thing the show is trying to project, don't it?
Hey, I'll give you that the show THINKS it is making a feminist statement. I'll give you that the show's writers probably THINK they are fixing racism, sexism and homophobia in one fell swoop. But they aren't. Quite the contrary, they are actively furthering those issues while thinking they're doing an amazing job. They degrade women while touting themselves as feminists. They made their only Latina family mob members while touting themselves champions of POC stories. They view themselves as LGBT representation while one character decides another's sexuality and their agency in coming out is stripped from them.
Adding to that, it's fine if you disagree with me. I speak only for myself, and the block button is easy to find. It's all good. I'm not offended that you disagree with me, but to suggest Riverdale is scathing, witty meta-commentary? RIVERDALE????? I don't think I'm the one who doesn't know what this show is, anon. This show is a vehicle to leer on the hot cast members, and more recently, to act out some personal ~aesthetic* writer fantasies. It has never and will never be what you proclaimed it to be:
"meta-commentary on Americana, film, and television is unmatched. Its refusal to be any one thing is both brave and fascinating. The show has remained true to its vision despite pissing off much of its audience, which is rare in a landscape of shameless pandering for views. God bless Riverdale for that."
I'm...a little stunned that you think it is. But nonetheless, I stand behind the statement that writers whose misogyny comes out LOUDLY in their writing, who have stripped this show of anything interesting, recognizable or interesting, and whose relationship with the fans on social media is disturbing at best, will not be prime targets for new shows.
Again, I do genuinely commend you for putting your name behind your thoughts. I have no issue with you disagreeing with me, or the majority of the fandom in general. I have no ill will to you. But yes, I believe this season of the show is disturbing, misogynistic and creepily sexual. It's a statement I stand by, and while you're under no obligation to agree, I hope you're able to find the block button next time.

Just finished reading Prince Lestat and here's my (personal) thoughts: Anne really loves to drop a bomb and just... leave it there, right? 😅 I mean, for example Lestat had a freakin baby, a true miracle of the ages and then... he barely gets more than 6 lines for the rest of the next books and that's it, I guess that's because I also struggled with the Rose part, don't get me wrong, the premise of the full circle with Claudia in the past and Lestat actually being a good father to HER it's really cute, but as a character she was so bland and... kind of annoying, as bland as Cosette from Les Miserábles (and I found her so insufferable I wanted to skip every page she was in) and dragged other chacraters into her dullness and the obvious favoritism like, Viktor gets kidnaped and what is Lestat main reaction? "Omg I have to care for Rose, pamper her, protect her, put her to sleep and rest" and he only gets pissed and wants to take an action when he knows she got hurt, if Viktor didn't outsmarted his kidnaper, set the house on fire and escaped and Fareed's intervention he would most likely be dead, and you can't tell me that if it was Rose who was taken Lestat would have PERSONALLY go there in a heartbeat, gut the son of a bitch with his own hands, cut him into tiny little pieces and give it to the dogs to eat and don't even get me on the "Romeo and Juliet reincarneted walking into immortality", "no better match for each other" crap, I rolled my eyes so hard like "haven't they just met 3 weeks ago?"😅 I mean, Viktor had the potential to be a really relevant, interesting badass character, he had the spark and the sauce, but his only personality trait/strenght relies on being "with Rose" and "Rose's lackey" while she gets to be Lestat's entire heart and his little perfect darling at the end. I really hopes the show does the Louis magic and gets more deep into it and adds more personality, I really want to see more of Lestat being a dad to Rose, sharing those precious moments with her, and Viktor, the only child known in history to be sired by an vampire being raised by Fareed and Seth and the beautiful bond it must have been created betweem them, a child who grows unafraid amongst the Undead and if the writers really want to make this fetch, I mean, romance between them happen, make it at least believeable and somehow interesting to watch.
Yeah, Anne was a master at dropping bombshells. She’d drop a seemingly harmless passage into the books, in an “Oh, by the way…” fashion, but there would be a lot contained within a few sentences.
I have to disagree about Lestat’s reaction to Viktor’s kidnapping though. Lestat’s reaction to finding out about Viktor’s existence said everything about how much he already loved him without having even met him. I talked about that here.
At that point, when Lestat is told about Rose being attacked and blinded, Viktor hadn’t been taken yet. Of course Lestat was going to react with fury at her being hurt. Lestat had done everything in his power to protect her from what he was, but it still wasn’t enough. Lestat decides to finally go to Trinity Gate, in large part, because of Viktor and Rose. When he gets there, Viktor has been abducted in the meantime, and Lestat hasn’t seen Rose in years. Of course he was going to dote on her and comfort her and protect her. His feelings about Viktor being taken were revealed in two of Anne’s by-the-way bombshells.
Who could not admire a creature with such perfect poise, such perfect pitch for what to say to each and every blood drinker who approached him, a creature who could lapse into the greatest tenderness with his mortal ward, Rose, in his arms, and then turn with such fury on Seth, the powerful Seth, demanding to know how and why he’d exposed “these mortal children” to such disasters?
Lestat was angry that both his children had been put in danger.
And where the Hell was my son!
This is during the argument about making Lestat the leader. He doesn’t want to lead, and he’s frustrated. His priority is getting Viktor back, and that’s demonstrated in that single line amongst the chaos of trying to make Lestat the leader and the impending threat. When Rhoshamandes finally shows up, threatening to kill Viktor, Lestat has already figured out that he has the upper hand. Let’s not forget he starts savagely chopping up Rhosh’s arm into pieces. Had actual harm come to Viktor, Lestat would’ve done way more than just chopping off arms.
Viktor and Rose weren’t properly fleshed out, because Anne’s Facebook group disliked them. I’ve noticed a trend in that subset being against the humanistic side to her vampires. None of them seemed to get what Anne was doing when she gave Lestat and Louis more children after Claudia. It was a shame, really. After everything Lestat had endured, let him have that happiness with his babies. But again, in the same by-the-way bombshell fashion, Anne said a lot about Lestat’s relationship with Viktor in a few profound words, which I talked about here.
I’ve said it before, but Lestat loves both his children. He wants to be the best he can be for them. He stops hating himself for them. He was a good father to Rose, and the last two books highlight the fact Lestat is equally as devoted to Viktor. Lestat realizes it’s not about him anymore. It’s about his children. I truly believe it would’ve spared Lestat a lot of the pain he endured between TOTBT and PL if he would’ve known about Viktor’s existence sooner.
But yeah, I hope the show makes it that far to see Viktor and Rose, and I hope the show fully develops them more than Anne did.

hello tilly! i have turned 32 recently, and idk if it's just me, but i am seeing a change in my face. not that i'm saying i look a 100 years old or anything, but there is a change. i know that feminism has taught us well that we are more than our appearances, but there's still something bittersweet about not looking the way i looked before. i don't want to be like those crazy people who go out of their way with invasive treatments just to chase something that can never come back once it's gone, but yeah. how does one cope with the changes?
Well you changed several times already. When you were 25, you didn't look 20, and at 30 you didn't look 25. What troubles you is the gradual loss of what you perceive as youth.
I noticed when I was your age that every single ad that I was seeing in the street was suddenly not about me anymore. All the models for clothing, cosmetics etc are 25 tops. TV shows were also not about me anymore either since the main characters were either teens or in their early 20's. It was puzzling in the beginning and then, honestly liberating because I don't have to care about these things anymore. I don't have to compare myself to these idealized version of youth. Mind you, I shouldn't have in the first place but it's much harder when this coercion wears your face.
I feel much better today than years ago to be honest, when I'm older and I let myself gain weight, to get rid of my (mild though mind consuming) eating disorder and dysmorphophobia. 23 year old me was constantly stopping herself from doing / wearing things for the crime of being "too fat" at a size 6 and had a complex skin care routine to prevent aging.
I think it's also because we have all this pressure to remain attractive to men, and we were taught since preschool that our value is our youth, and that youth is beauty. Losing our youth, our beauty, means our roses are withered, and even if we disagree, deep down this thought is still there. And it compels us to think about what we did with our youth, and then the comparison with ads, tv shows, books etc comes back. Why didn't I find love already? Why don't I have my dream job already? Where is my happily ever after? What did I miss?
All that is in the anguish we feel at the first grey hair, the first wrinkle. I don't have a perfect solution, just know it's liberating to be free from the expectations of others. You're free now.
