#theres no middle ground

[kurthummeldeservesbetter]

the mischaracterizations of both Viktor and Jayce are killing me because:

They are both fucking nerds/geeks like those two believed in magic not only when it was banned and could get them exiled but also when 90% of the world didn't like. they were absolute geeks. canonically they spend 75% of their time together, and the other 25% is either them alone, Jayce with Mel/the Council, and Viktor with Sky (sort of) or talking to Singed.

Jayce is definitely as introverted/lonely as Viktor. He had no friends besides Caitlyn in S1A1 and only gained MAYBE 2 more after Viktor. He did not have a partner nor trusted anyone with what he was working on. No one else came to his defense at the trial. Boy was a loner, not a popular academy student with tons of friends.

VIKTOR IS GOOFY. Look at his face when Jayce asks him if he thinks their plans in act 1 will work! He's like "Crank it!" after seeing Jayce use it. He tries to use a bedroom lie when he gets caught breaking in. He steals keys TO break in just cause. He's excited explaining new creations to Jayce. He's excited (at first) when Jayce gives the speech!

Jayce is smart!!!!! Like yes he is very much a himbo in the sense of his energy, but he's not the "dumb one" of his and Viktor's pair, they're equals. just rewatch how he explains the arcane/hexcore/hextech to Ekko, or the whole scene in general. he keeps notes on Viktor while he's in the hexcore despite never having any prior experience with anything like it before. They understand each other easily. the braincell they share has an IQ of like 1000.

Viktor not only wears all his emotions on his face (in fact, he is very emotional) he also doesn't shy away from touch! His reciprocation is allowing the touch from Jayce (hands on back, shoulders, sides, hugs) because he also likes it! and he's not afraid TO show emotion! (that's why the whole machine herald thing was so intense, he went from having ALL the emotions to like 1 or 2 traumatically).

Viktor admires Jayce as much as the reverse: it's why he's mad/annoyed at him during the politics era: he knows the real Jayce, and not "his Jayce" but the real Jayce who is a scientist who wants to help people. It's why he's so open with him, why he's so betrayed and leaves when Jayce uses the hexcore on him, because his heart was broken. because the Jayce he knows is incredibly intelligent and focused and wants to actually help people.

JAYCE IS SELFISH. THEY BOTH ARE. From day one these assholes are only thinking about each other, they have each other on the top of their respective lists, but they don't know it. Viktor almost dooms an entire universe out of a selfish perspective to "cure" the world (forgetting choice is the upmost important thing) and after he got rejected from the one person he loved.

Jayce has always put Viktor first, even despite Viktor's wishes (the hexcore) and from the end of S2A2 on, his only main priority is Viktor, it just so happens saving Viktor also saves the world. this asshole tells Viktor in front of the whole hivemind that magic (which did improve everyone's lives basically until it got corrupted) wasn't worth it because he loses Viktor. because any other writing would have had Jayce be like "im letting him go to save the world" and Jayce is "I'll never let him go, even if it dooms the world".

idk but me personally, if you're not gonna use to me act out your grossest and most fucked up fantasies, then don't waste your time telling me

[hazardsoflove]

hoziers statement is so crazy to me. you’re irish

[gayraccoonthing]

Having friends you love so,so much is so weird. Like, I want to wrap you up in a soft little blanket and siphon out all your problems through forehead kisses, but also I want to chew on your arm like it's a carrot stick and kiss you on the lips.

the idea of normality feels very foregin

theres always either too much going on , im taking too much and i just want it all to stop. or there's nothing happening , and i crave the feeling of chaos again.

[inendedtheanxiousturtle]

TFW, a friend goes through something exactly like an experience of your own, and your mind goes blank on all of the shit you hated hearing from others and what you wished they'd said.

Do you by any chance have any more ideas or plans for the leosagi babies comic

Do we get to see leo explain to Sagi? Or announce to the fam? Or stuffs like that

Its genuinely my favorite comic if yours to go back and reread it is so well written

vbdjhvbsfdj thank you 🥺

not really, at least not for now! I have one more ask that i'll probably answer, but other than that there's not much there for me - at least until i flesh out what the future actually looks like.

"I'm so happy!" "me too!"

I wanted to focus on a different turtle for each stage of development to avoid reiterating the same things over again - mikey (pre-baby) > leo (baby) > raph (post-baby) > donnie (post-post baby, otherwise known as a child).

fav thing about that fight is that duck and yellow are very focused on each other during it (throwing blows, almost all ducks lines are just insulting him,ect)

red is just in the bg of that having a COMPLETELY different convo with. himself. its so fucking funnnyyy

[givemewallywestorgivemedeath]

No but why is Karen and Wally bonding over being the only not rich kids on the team everything—

It's literally giving me life. The Titans, Teen or otherwise, have a serious lack of grounded characters (and not in a 'no powers = grounded' way).

Wally has always been that character. He's always been the everyday, average normal guy living among billionaires royalty and demigods. (Which is wild because he should not be that normal with his power set and abilities)

Karen and Mal were also grounded characters in the og Teen Titans (which, again, was really needed cause Dick did shit like handing strangers thousands of dollars to keep quiet about his friend's antics and Roy went off and did shit like buying a bar on a whim at 16 and Donna and Garth had no concept of money or consequences) but unfortunately the series never really explored that aspect of their characters.

But now??? Now when Roy complains that Wally doesn't have a helipad at his house Wally doesn't have to 'Jim the camera'. Wally has a whole ass person to text this shit to!!! Karen can Snapchat Wally about how Donna thinks healthcare comes from purple laser beams and has zero concept of insurance. They aren't alone!!!

And honestly I love it so much.

(completely clueless about mcyt i just like isat and stumbled across the works using your prompts) what is temtober and have you posted the prompts list you made anywhere?

EIFBKSSN I WAS WONDERING WHEN I WAS GONNA GET AN ASK ON THIS

my beloved friend @/isjasz was lamenting yesterday that she couldnt find an alternative inktober prompt list that sparked joy and, well. I actually love cooking up prompts, so i offered to make her a custom prompt list!! I spent all day yesterday on it and today my lovely friends @/kunehokki and @/corvidaearts dove in to make me a cute graphic so i can post the whole list for everybody else to try. The prompts i created also function as a poem when read all together, bc after i made them i saw an opportunity and i never say no to getting a little crazy 😂😂😂

Im waiting for the graphic to get finished before i post the entire list, but here are the first three since it probably wont be posted until tomorrow:

revealing your nature

on the edge of a knife

one eye open

If anybody else decides to try my prompts for the month, please tag me!!! I desperately wanna see what yall make :D

I present them with one comment this time:

They're based on a red light/green light aka two of the three colors in stoplights.

[hfjonewiki]

there are only two possible outcomes for whatever continuation of ii adam and the shitmunks are planning:

a perfect way to explore characters who didn't get a chance to have full arcs, whether it be because they got eliminated early or were only in season one and therefore missed the cutoff of characters actually HAVING arcs, along with characters like baseball who got a good amount of screentime but were left with a lot of loose plot threads due to the focus being elsewhere. also lots of potential for exploration of the "real" world outside of the show, and more worldbuilding in general.

the inanimate insanity version of the homestuck epilogues.

a silly thing i realized is that almost all of my ocs were created with the thought of them being part of a couple if this makes sense (bc im very obsessed with romance lol) so after realizing that im aromantic i got the handful of ocs i have that DONT have a partner and was like: you! get hit with the aroace beam! 💙🩵🤍💛🧡🔫

Relatively new here, but I've seen arguments for Ford getting Stan back much sooner if Stan had gone through the portal and arguments for him deciding that it was too dangerous to the world and abandoning the portal completely...

But I feel like there's a version of things where Stan goes through and Ford doesn't completely dismantle/ditch the portal but spends the next 30 years trying to make it work in a way that's both safe for the world and rescues his brother...whether he succeeds and Bill figures smth else out, doesn't succeed but can't bear to leave Stan there for any longer (maybe spurred by the younger Mystery Twins being TwinsTM in proximity), or the portal is activated by mistake or smth...idk, lots of possibilities there!

i didn't become a radical leftist overnight. it was the grief, the sorrow, the suffering in the people i cared for that pushed me into leftism. this is a fun blog. its a silly one. and despite what people tell you - i think having an outlet for yourself as an activist is important. you cant take care of others at the expense of yourself. it is necessary to hold space for that which is why i keep the posting here sparse.

its a fandom blog and i truly have very little expectations about what activism takes place here. but some things are so deeply, irrevocably unacceptable. this is one of those times where i cant express my stance enough.
