#these are the questions that plague me

I wonder who was responsible for planning Nat’s funeral, because it looks like it’s likely in Catholic Church which is semi interesting to me. Like, adult Nat doesn’t strike me as an observant Catholic and likely hits people with the “I was raised Catholic” line at best. So, was there like a will/document that had her final plans laid out or did Tai and Shauna plan the funeral and remembered Nat was Italian and probably Catholic, so they were like fuck it and held it in a church even if she was no longer observant.

no one talks enough about how lilith leaving frasier for brian (then briefly niles in room service) is a (i suspect unintentional) perfect parallel to lilith leaving frasier for a man who will lie under her instead of over her bc frasier is obviously like a type a dominant personality and thats why they didnt work.

(this is contradicted by an episode that i swear to god exists but cant find any evidence but i swear it exists and is canon to me because its too embarrassing if this is something my subconscious fabricated. anyways the episode heavily that implies frasier is a bottom and calls lilith mommy in bed???? but still frasier likes to be dominant even if it's just in non-sexual contexts)

anyways a god, implied to be The Christian God, canonically exists in the frasier universe as of dont go breaking my heart and i have a lot of thoughts about biblical parallels in frasier

edit: first paragraph i meant that it has parallels to lilith leaving adam in genesis or whatever, idr anything from sunday school correct me if i'm wrong

Is Taylor Swift still on tumblr or is she too good for her roots now?

[sunshinetoshi]

and now we discuss what we think my ex did with the rock.

did he keep it? throw it away? put it in some obscure drawer or box to accumulate dust?

do you think mimikyu gets so mad when it sees a pikachu is because it sees the agony it inflicts upon itself from holding the fake tail between its cheeks or

So we know that Andrew and Aaron have to have the same hair cut, otherwise it would have been instantly obvious who was who. So which one of them chose the hair cut? Did Andrew get whatever Aaron had when he got out of juvie? Did Aaron match his to his new brother’s? Did they both decide to change to a new one?

[shittymalevolentheadcanons]

so. i feel relatively confident in assuming arthur still has custody of his eyelids even with john having his eyes. additionally, we've seen plenty of evidence that arthur can't feel the parts of his body that john owns at all. with these assumptions in mind:

do you think arthur ever forgets to blink?

okay I need to test something

Most to Least Likely to Cry After Sex

Okay so, this might be a personal thing on my end, but I have long kept a running list of characters that I believe would cry after having sex. It is a perfectly natural response and there is absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about if it happens ... though it is surprisingly entertaining to think about in terms of fictional characters. And of course, I have a list for OM as well.

Contents: Nsfw/suggestive, depending on your definition, but not explicit. Emotional vulnerability explored.

~♡♡♡~

Levi

I think anyone could see this coming. Levi almost certainly has cried or would cry after sex. And depending on what you're doing, he may even cry during sex too.

Bless his little heart, it is 100% because he is always riding an emotional rollercoaster of the highest highs and lowest lows. The realization that somebody out there actually wants to be intimate with him would send his whole body into a meltdown. Have patience.

Mammon

Also kind of a no-brainer. He's only a little less likely to cry than Levi because he's better at putting up a front when he really wants to.

Unlike others on the list, Mammon gets super embarrassed if he gets overwhelmed and cries after sex but he rarely tries to hide it. It's kind of his way of reaching out for more affection, he wants to be coddled and reassured that his partner accepts him no matter what. He thrives on unconditional love like that.

Satan

Hear me out. Satan is canonically a kinky little fucker, I don't think he would cry after an especially "playful" rendezvous. It would be the really soft and intimate moments that get him everytime.

We have to remember, he's still a little new to this whole "experiencing feelings" thing. An emotion as overpowering as love is going to flatten him like a steamroller. He won't even realize that he is crying until his tears start staining the sheets. Be gentle. Talk him through it. Again, it's perfectly natural if it happens.

Belphie

I think Belphie will cry for bratty purposes more than anything else. I am wholly convinced that he will cry on demand if it gets him what he wants.

Lord forbid the MC tries to go anywhere before Belphie is ready because he may just grab onto them and start the waterworks. If you could withstand the full force of a pouty, teary-eyed Belphie begging just "5 more minutes" of cuddling, you're a stronger person than I am.

Simeon

Only lower than the other guys by virtue of having quite the stranglehold on his inner emotions, but he will let them out if he's comfortable to do so.

Let me be clear, Simeon wants to cry everytime. He wants to lose himself completely in his partner and let it all wash over him. It's just the social and moral questions surrounding what's happening that keep him from doing so. (Poor thing #1)

Asmo

Another person who can cry on demand or just get overwhelmed, but it won't happen often.

Put quite simply, Asmo's been around the block. He has a pretty good handle on himself even during his come downs. However, he knows how much it could mean to your partner if you're willing to show that side of yourself to them. So if MC says/does something that genuinely touches him, he will cry without shame.

Diavolo

Would almost certainly get misty-eyed if he was with someone he truly cared about. He may not cry, but he'll have to rub his eyes some.

Make. The. Prince. Feel. Loved. The realization that he has someone that he doesn't have order or trick into staying around would floor him. He's far, far too well-versed in maintaining a certain image to fully breakdown, but those feelings would all still be there regardless.

Lucifer

Also gets misty-eyed, particularly after make-up sex.

He would rather sheath his own nails into the skin of his palms than get caught crying, but if he really screwed something up (and was willing to admit it) then he would get a little vulnerable in the moment. It would be fleeting, though.

Solomon

It can get to him a bit, he's a pretty lonely guy, but he's more likely to make a joke or say something out of the blue just to hide from his feelings.

I don't think Solomon quite lets himself ponder or self-reflect on things that genuinely upset him. He's very goal-driven and future-focused, so indulging in these softer moments would be foreign to him. If he ever feels like crying, he'll immediately try to distract from it rather than letting the feelings out. (Poor thing #2)

Beel

I just don't see him crying. He's very comfortable with himself, he doesn't really repress his emotions, and he knows he's well-liked and well-loved. Beel would be just fine.

It's not a Solomon situation, of course. Beel does self-refect and he genuinely engages with others. I just don't think this would be a shocking level of intimacy to him. He already loves others about this deeply to start with, so just expect a really smiley Beel!

Barbatos

To be clear, Barbatos can cry and he has cried before in his life. It just won't ever be after sex.

Similar to Solomon, I think Barbatos lives his life with a certain level of detachment from the world around him. He wouldn't get overwhlemed after sex because he can't. It's not that his mind is elsewhere, it's that he blocks himself from getting too emotionally invested in such things to begin with. (Poor thing #3)

Judging from these panels, would it mean that there's no other yorishima exorcist that's still alive (since natori said that the yorishima family "was once" a big name, past tense) in the canon timeline, and that the yorishima we know probably ended his family's exorcism business for good by retiring himself? If so, was the reason tied to the youkai living in his left arm, or is there another cause? And when exactly did he retire— was it before or during seiji and shuuichi's high school days, which was why his left arm appeared with the thick bandages when he gave them the loquats in the anime, but he still lived in the estate during that time, or was it after the two became legal adults, which lined up somewhat with him moving into his forest home, abandoning his family estate in favor of living in isolation?

And, speaking of retirement, I wonder if we'll ever know why midorikawa told us that the takis were "famous" (which presumedly meant they were strong enough to be well-known) as occult diviners, since tooru herself only ever mentioned what their previous family business entails, and never about their status in the exorcism community? We don't really need this extra bit if she wanted to further establish how tooru has an aptitude for spell-casting, either. Again, there's another "strong" family (whose members are still alive in canon) that went into retirement, but did the taki family lost their power because the ability to see (if they were needed for diviners) disappeared for at least the last three generations (if we assumed that tooru and isamu's parents couldn't see youkai too), or was it due to another reason? How close was shinichiro (tooru and isamu's grandpa) to the matobas that even the current clan head came to pay his respects during his sixth death anniversary; was his relationship with seiji's father strictly resolved around exorcism business, or was anything else involved? Does tooru herself doesn't fully understand the prowess her family once had, hence why seiji was the one who told takashi (and us readers) about it? What would this tiny bit of lore mean for tooru with it revealed this late into the manga, when tooru herself only talked sparsely about her ancestors in previous chapters?

[miniagula]

movie sonadow would be so l umity-coded…and i say this bc their dynamic is similar to the games but with a different and tender perspective: they both empathize deeply with each other now, and this shadow is not as reticent or closed off bc of that. that being said: movie!sonic would ABSOLUTELY 'YOU'RE the sweet potato!' the hell out of shadow

[notbecauseofvictories]

One final note, and then I promise I will go and do all the things I have to do today, but......I tend to side with the people who say that "being human" (with all its complexities, impulses, and shades of ineffable feeling) hasn't fundamentally changed in the last few millennia. The material conditions and basic, expected knowledge base absolutely have! I think it would be difficult to have a conversation, should I happen to bump into a woman from Neolithic Byblos at a party; I just don't think she's as truly alien to me as language/culture/history might make her seem.

Still, though....I do sort of envy people in the past sometimes. I think it's how much more laborious everything was, how much more time-consuming the daily routine would be. If I didn't live in the modern era, I wonder if I would have less time to---well, worry about living in the modern era.

I’m so NORMAL about him, I swear to God.

If the creators happen to run into this, please just feel free to ignore me and pretend you didn’t see this. Please, I just like being stupid sometimes. 😂
