i want to see percy and grover be so deeply head over heels in friendship with each other
you’re telling me their souls are tied together and you expect me to think they’re normal about each other? wrong.
they act like a married couple and a couple in the honeymoon phase at the same time.
they miss each other when one of them goes to the bathroom, they have considered a joint bank account. which obviously won’t work because mortal banks and demigods definitely don’t mix
they sit on each other’s laps, and have standing hangout days.
they have no chill whatsoever regarding the other.
annabeth is aware and thinks its hilarious and endearing. she joins their cuddle piles.
#percy and grover are the bestest of friends#they have an empathy link#their souls are intertwined#they are family#percy and grover#percy jackson#grover underwood#i love them your honor#percy jackson and the olympians#annabeth chase#book club with em

actually lol the story playing out as it does but after Annabeth reunites with Percy, he looks behind her and is very quickly, "where's grover"
cue depression that some other satyr is joining them on this quest instead of Grover, who obviously decided not to come get Percy himself because he hates him
("percy, he doesn't hate you, he's just busy preparing trying to keep Gaea down with all the other nature spirits")
("HE HATES ME")
#percy jackson#grover underwood#annabeth chase#happy talks pjo#back on my grover is percy's FP bullshit lol#everyone at camp jupiter is just like “the fuck is happening” bc what.#piper is in the background thinking “this is the guy annabeth talked up for so long? the guy who's trying to bury himself in the ground rn?#jason is lowkey offended they replaced him with someone so emotional (but also confused bc he thought neptune's kids didn't have emotions?)#hazel and frank are not surprised because percy remembered grover at some point during the quest#and had a nearly devastating meltdown at the concept that he could ever forget him#and also was super distressed he couldn't contact grover through their empathy link#they spent three hours trying to reassure him everything would be fine and its not his fault! it's juno's! and her magic! so relax! plz!

Titans curse spoiler (pjo book 3)!!!!
Okay, but if we get to season 3 and Annabeth and Percy are dancing in Westover Hall Annabeth will most certainly need to say something along the lines of "Don't make this weird, Seaweed Brain" as they're dancing because we know Percy now thinks hugging needs to be a thing they do after one hug and he will probably think dancing is now something they'll be doing a lot too!
#he will probably be freaking out about it too#he's thinking “I can't dance omg I'm going to embarrass myself!”#Grover would regret his empathy link because this boy is anxious a lot more when he's around Annabeth then he is normally#poor goat boy having to watch Percy be oblivious whilst having literal proof that he does indeed like her#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#percy jackson and the olympians#pjo#annabeth chase#percabeth#pjo series#pjo tv show#grover underwood

I am a “Meg and Apollo’s master/servant bond evolved into something a lot like an empathy link post their dip into Chaos in TDP” truther and I will be till the day I die.
#trials of apollo#toa apollo#lester papadopoulos#meg mccaffrey#sunny speaks#and I think that neither of them realized for a long time#bc Meg realized she was feeling some of Apollo’s emotions but she just thought that’s how master servant bonds work#and Apollo knows that’s not how the bond they have works but he’s already so hyper-empathetic towards Meg that he barely noticed the change#it’s only the people around them that really notice the way their emotions affect each other#also I deadass think that by TTT if Meg and Apollo discovered that they could communicate with each other in their dreams#they would just go with it#also like canonically that does happen#like Meg just casually pulls Apollo into her past and it’s never explained in TBM#(I know Hazel and Leo do that two but for Hazel it was an established thing)#anyways empathy link sunflower sibs for the win <3

We both were chosen by this destiny…
Why did it have to be us?
#sorry this is soooo low energy i’m rlly down rn#hero’s purpose#loz#oot#ganondorf#link#maybe the symbolism would have been better if i did oot zelda and impa with koume and koutake#or if i did skyward sword zelda and impa with demise#but this felt Correct anyway#truly the dialogue in episode 5 is still just. chewing on it. chewing on it. chewing on it.#treating spirit of the hero as an extension of the curse that strips link of his empathy and autonomy is sooooo sexy#that it’s all morally grey that no one is correct in this conflict and there is no hero and villain#just used children groomed into a life of compulsive bloodshed at hylia and demise behest#god#hylia just Using Him against his will as he starts to crumble and ganondorf losing his humanity for his tenderness#the recognition of each other as terrified miserable children seconds before they’re both killed. it’s so sad#bro idk major link is just a genius he’s a genius#it’s so fucking compelling and depressing and i really wish the mutually morally grey landscape would be acknowledged canonically

[ID: an uncoloured drawing for a panel next to the publicized version. They're both from the comic Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #194. In them, Batman is shown from the waist up. He's looking at Jim Gordon, who's off panel, with a penitent expression after being accused of something he secretly did do. He has his palm pressed against his chest and is blocking the bat emblem as his other hand is clasped ontop of it. In the initial drawing, there's a halo floating above his head as well as several tiny hearts mixed in with the lights that surround him. In the publicized panel, the hearts and halo has been removed and two speech bubbles have been added. He's in front of a terra rose background and is starting to say, “Jim, I don't even know what you're...” But Jim cuts him off, saying, “Stop it. I'm tired of this.”
The third photo is a description of the drawing from the artist's (Seth Fisher) website. It reads: This is another page that the DC editors changed: no halos or hearts around Batman, no matter how (disingenuously) contrite he is. In the final edition, the halo and heart in the center bottom frame have been excised.]
#happy sad boy sunday !!!#this counts because he's getting broken up with and because im sad bc they removed the halo and hearts#included the link to the website on the word too :3 in case any of u wanted to see his unpublished work too#deleting a big ol rant that no one cares about but basically:#hate seeing how much creativity and personality gets edited and removed despite it being the artist's job & how you have rememberable#and remarkable art. i get the editors got an important job but at the same time at what point do you allow art and personality to exist#just to make comics more fun to read/look at instead of basing everything on a capitalistic stoic reputation that#youre responsible for creating?? turning batman into a symbol of unwavering compassion and empathy and the reminder theres always stars#even on the darkest night if you remember to look up. him going from being a symbol of hope and humanity to being a character#that cant fucking have a heart or visual compassion out of fear they cant market him more or ruin that fragile reputation.#they make editing decisions based on it as a product instead of it as a character/story or an artform and god does it show.#happy sad boy sunday bc shutting down artistic freedom and expressionism for capitalistic reasonings is making me want to shoot myself 🥰🥰#c: batman: legends of the dark knight | i: 194#crypt's panels#batman#posts from the crypt

something that's been weighing on my mind ever since learning about the situation with ezra / toonimal is seeing how these predators will take the active hostility that is frequently directed towards minors in online spaces to their advantage and use it to prey on vulnerable children. i think that we as adults in online fandom should probably come together and maybe rethink the language / manner we go about interacting with kids bc clearly the way things are rn is causing active harm.
like obviously, if you're an adult and aren't comfortable with minors interacting with you or your content, you should be allowed to set that boundary and should be vocal about it, ( especially if the content you create isn't safe for them to consume. ) but i don't think talking to them like they're a blight on all that is good and holy is the way to go about it. maybe just saying you're an 18 plus account will suffice, you don't have to tell them to fuck off.
#i'm opening myself up for ppl to leave the stupidest takes on this post but whatever i need to get this off my mind#before anyone says anything about the kids on that website. they're grooming victims. they're literally kids being taken advantage of#show them some fucking kindness and be understanding that they're the victims in this situation#idk what it is about becoming an adult that causes so many ppl to lose their empathy towards minors it's weird#like yeah kids can be annoying and pushy on online spaces sometimes but a lot of them are old enough to know online etiquette lbr#alot of us were annoying kids on the internet at some point we should understand that you don't just. get a handbook for how to act online#that's shit you learn overtime but ppl seem to forget that#they also seem to forget that talking down to kids isn't gonna teach them shit they're not gonna listen to you if you treat them like idiots#what i'm trying to say is that we really need to talk to minors more respectfully and maybe give them a little grace#( obviously there will be situations where some of them need to be yanked up by the collar but there's ways to go about that >>>#without treating them like shit )#these kids need to know that there's spaces for them to be online safely without having to stumble into places that'll pray on them#we all know how much it sucked to be a kid online we should want better for the ones coming in after us ya know#sorry if this comes across as preachy it just breaks my heart and boils me blood to see kids being taken advantage of like this#especially when there's ways to prevent it idk#how do i even tag this....#mj.txt#there's trigger warning on the linked post btw#tw csa mention

the thing is. empathizing with the doodler is the hard choice. it's risky. who knows what it'll actually do, and who can you trust? normal or the two adults who very much want to beat this thing with violence? and tbh I think they're doing so well at playing teenagers in this regard? literally a few episodes ago it was all "fuck adults we don't need adults" but they've tried to do this normal's way before and things only got worse!
but we the audience know that they do not and that's the concept of choosing empathy over violence, ending generational trauma instead of continuing the cycle, letting the doodler - an entity so starved for love and yet completely unable to obtain it - go free instead of potentially endangering other worlds (with the kiddads plan) or letting willy have it... it's the entire moral of the podcast. and that's why normal is right about what they should be doing, even if he's doing a horrible job at it. and while I don't think it's gonna be a clear-cut "good" option, I think it'll have better long lasting effects than continuing the circle of violence. that's all thank you for your time
#kasey rambles#dndads#dndads spoilers#saw smth and had to very quickly type a counterargument#but the teens literally all represent breaking family cycles#normal especially considering. waves hands at the oaks#and i think part of why i want him to snap so badly is because i WANT him to get angry on the doodlers behalf#on his OWN behalf#but thats a different story#empathizing with the doodler IS the harder choice BECAUSE its unpredictable and i think its a reflection on the world?#sometimes you have to do things out of love with potentially disastrous consequences bcuz the easy way out will just make it worse#anyways. i hope so badly link snapped the anchor out of an empathy for scary and that itll count

i would die on a hill defending jake from sweetbitter. not a single person in his life actually cared about him. actual him, not an idea of him.
#sweetbitter#jake sweetbitter#tom sturridge#starz#bartender#he has been abused all of his life#does that not warrant empathy#he is literally pimped out as some kind of “bad boy sex dream#does that excuse his casual cruelty?#no#did he deserve better?#he did#arguing that he lead tess on makes it sound like you owe people something if you ever give them attention#a not so friendly reminder that tess found out jake had been abused since the age of 8 and promptly sat to have champagne with his abuser#i will never stop thinking about him#he has no freedom#no life of his own#all his finance and his job and his friends are all linked back to simone#he can’t even acknowledge his anger towards simone out of fear of losing another mother figure

Everyone in fandom constantly fighting over ships and stuff but yall haven't known true suffering until you go over the m/f side of a half dead to fully dried out fandom and are stuck drinking the dust coming out of a rusty 89 year old faucet.
#botw is a weird kinda scary time#LISTEN#they just dropped some really hard hitting clips in links memories and I NEED TO SEE MORE#like hello the scene where she's just at the fountain of power and being like why tf am i such a failure I've tried so hard#1. ouch#2. when link turns around at the end from standing guard bc empathy is a fucking BITCH#ugh#also like yea the crying scene#i wanna say str8 couples are valid too but str8 fic gave us the following:#m/f omegaverse lawsuit in real court#50 shades of gray#the after series ft the most toxic relationship ever harry styles would probably never#cassandra clare or w.e. her name is#so objectively idk if it's worth it Nintendo should have just given me more in game food rather than forcing me to scavange for scraps#and try to shoe horn my very gay mind into a straight setting

i have planned to write a pseudo-essay or some kind of detailed look at linebeck in phantom hourglass and how he can be interpreted as autistic but thats not going very well right now so here are some autistic linebeck headcanons
He has low empathy and as such has a hard time responding very well to emotional situations, but he can take advantage of his lower empathy in situations where empathy could make things harder, like tending to wounds or rationally handling emotionally-charged situations
His coat is a comfort object and he made it specifically to act as a very slight accommodation; it’s heavy and barely lets any light through it, and he can keep all kinds of little things in pockets sewn into the inner lining, but larger objects do make it more uncomfortable to wear at times. It’s mostly good to carry around things to fidget or stim with and can be helpful in trying to recover from overwhelming sensory experiences
He doesn’t usually stim in public, but taps his fingers on tables quickly and tends to rhythmically snap his fingers when excited, and on his ship is more vocal and more willing to stim, even if around others. One of his main stims that he’ll do for no particular reason is that he’ll hold his arm or back of his wrist/hand up to his nose and mouth for the smell.
He masks frequently to please people. His default mask is that arrogant and brave front he puts up for islanders and other he may come across. Usually, if that mask doesn’t work, he tends to double-down because it usually works and, in his experience, dropping the mask has usually gone badly (non masking he’s rude and blunt but more outwardly excited about adventure and his ship and all of that, i consider it where overseas in the game is when he usually isn’t masking. this shifts his arc to be about him learning to stop masking and feel comfortable being himself)
His special interests could include stuff related to treasure hunting but it could really range from stuff about adventuring or the ocean or engineering (relating to his ship) to stuff not at all touched in the game like music. He really enjoys music, listening to it, playing it, and writing it. He also enjoys and is fascinated by shellfish.
When busy or otherwise occupied, he doesn't usually notice when he's hungry. He doesn't have as much of a problem noticing thirst or exhaustion, but feeling hunger is a problem for him, and often leads to him going a long time without eating. On the other hand, he doesn't mind eating the same thing repeatedly and is perfectly fine with blander foods, so handling food supplies for when he'll be overseas for a long time is easy for him.
He knows he's autistic, he's known for a pretty long time, and he has books on it; he also knows that Link is autistic, but doesn't say anything about it and instead waits until someone else tells him. Until (and after, I suppose) Link actually learns that he's autistic Linebeck just makes sure to keep note of what accommodations he might need and if there are any textures or tastes or smells he can't stand. He doesn't have much of a problem helping out during sensory overloads, even soon after meeting him. It's more out of understanding how it feels to not have your needs met and a sort of solidarity rather than actual friendship.
#loz#legend of zelda#phantom hourglass#linebeck#OBVIOUSLY he experiences some nasty rsd and he's a bitch about it that's like. basically canon so i didnt mention it#a lot of linebeck’s autism is based and referenced off of my own with some extra additions#which is why i have an easier time writing him as autistic than link#kindness is a choice and having low or no empathy does not in any way make someone heartless but linebeck does abuse his own low empathy#to be a mean bitch with minimal emotional consequences#i think linebeck would call link a dipshit to his face and then not feel bad about it for like a few weeks until he starts caring abt him#linebeck stimming by smelling his arm is actually my main stim. its probably why i sit all fucked up bc i sometimes do it w/ my legs lol#the masking bit does kinda fuck some stuff up but i personally enjoy that take on him#one of his comfort objects is an old orange cat plushie named copernicus and if you know what that is specifically from thank you im sorry#linebeck being way into music has no canon backup i just like the idea of him playing piano and composing some form of his own theme#piano is a mad sensory experience btw i dont yet know how to really play it but when i did keyboard in pit it was a fantastic feeling#bangin' out the tunes. it was a really good sort of stim if i was feeling a bit overwhelmed by all of the new tech and music too#salty talks#not entirely an autism headcanon but he thinks gender is a sham and less identifies as a man and more specifically considers#his gender identity to be 'real man of the sea' which is initially kinda silly but kind of a fucking gender move tbh#i dont think he's explicitly trans or nb he's just having fun fucking with his own gender and doing whatever he feels like doing#he isnt a man but he is a man. kind of like how im a dude but also not. yeah.#these were initally going to be call 'quick' headcanons but you can see why i uh. didn't end up going with that

Cluster B Culture is knowing your thirsting for a social life when you start surfing reddit for gossip and stories and relationship issues and drama and basically hearing about other people's lives
.
#cluster b culture is#cluster b#npd#aspd#bpd#hpd#Mod Reef#anonymous#i LOVE hearing about other people's lives and drama#i don't like being asked for comfort and i don't like it when *i* have drama because then that affects me personally#but there's a reason why i love it when i read this one post about discourse that has a single link#and then that link contains a post with multiple links all of which have their OWN sets of multiple links#like ''hell yeah give me the drama. time to go down a rabbit hole for a few hours''#a lack of empathy helps me in this regard because then the drama usually doesn't end up being super upsetting and i can just sit back

Yay! Percy Jackson and the Olympians has officially been picked up for season two!
Sea of Monsters, baby!
#to be honest sea of monsters is probably my least favorite of the five books but i still love it and am super excited of course#and can't wait to see SO many key moments from it and tyson!#and having an actual accurate and good sea of monsters. unlike the movie. is going to be a god sent#but i can't wait for the circe's island stuff#and the sirens! and annabeth learning her fatal flaw!#and grover in a wedding dress!#and more clarisse!#and i wonder if we'll get the reyna and hylla ref at aforementioned circe's island#and speaking of circe's island stuff: gerbil percy!#and thalia back at the end of it! ahh!#oh and the percy and grover empathy link:)

the bit in the temperance reversed ending where lila goes on about her nature as the midnight queen and how every person is born with the idea of her already in their minds and hutchinson starts mumbling "li... lil...." before catching himself. good lord !
#and the way he could either be starting to say lila Or lilith !#have not finished rhe 7 hour analysis video so there is for sure stuff i do not know but AUGHHH !!! this game !!!!!!!!!#wills empathy being represented specifically as a DEAD dog. the daemon commenting “THE LADY TOUCHED THE EXPOSED WIRE” during the--#--boiler room sequence and wills comment of 'wheres mom?' when u find the pallette down there linking it back to his moms traumatic--#--death and that buzzing sound that constantly crops up throughout the game (LIKE AN EXPOSED WIRE)#it is so good man it is SO good
