and I swear (we were infinate) by Blood_Mocha_Latte

This work is incredible. It's amazing. It's a Vietnam au that I read it this weekend and it altered something in me down to my bones and spirit. When I think of flawless writing, impeccable pacing, and heart-stopping characterization, I will think of this fic moving forward.

Team, the writing exhibited here is seriously, deeply, ridiculously out of this world Good.

The author had their finger on the pulse of war time. Not for a single second did it feel performative or disrespectful--it was an exploration into Billy and Steve that I have never seen before, and it was PHENOMENAL.

I have a very close tie to the Vietnam war, through my granddad who was drafted pretty early on in the war and when the U.S. Government dropped Napalm on the wrong side, he was burned on over 85% of his body. He was never the same.

His PTSD was so bad that he had a constant wall separating him and the rest of our family. He was frozen in time. The happiest I ever saw him was when his war buddies came to visit, and I grew up thinking how sad it must be to go off and fight in a war for a country you don't believe in, and to never really come home once the bombs stopped falling.

My granddad, if he were alive today, would've been moved by this work.

PLEASE GO READ IT.

The author who wrote this has such a tender and understanding grasp on humanity and the love that sprouts in the face of darkness. I laughed, and cried, and cared so deeply about every single one of these characters who, at their root and through incredible mastery of the craft, felt like real people.

I finished reading yesterday and I haven't stopped thinking about it since.

The author was able to give something back to those we lost. This fanfiction changed something in me, and it hasn't broken 1,000k hits yet.

They deserve their flowers. Please go read it, you won't be disappointed.

anyways while senshi is canonically a feminine elf mithrun is canonically a masculine one since like senshi with all his alternate race appearances making him look more cute and feminine mithruns other race appearances have him as an absolute hunk of a man like kabru is fucking teaching self care to a middle aged veteran who sometimes says racist shit like you think kabru ever sighed and was like 'lets get you to bed soldier you're talking nonsense about half foots again"

okay but can we talk abt the minecraft movie’s complete erasure of the personality of steve???? like that is not even steve minecraft that is just fucking jack black with a blue shirt on.

have yall have seen the cinematic trailers for mc updates? steve literally has a completely different personality. steve is just a silly lil guy. hes just a curious dude who loves building and exploring! hes not jack black, or a wackjob who went crazy from being isolated for too long. he loves and parktakes happily in the world hes in.

i know we only saw one real scene, but i can already tell that jack black is not going to be playing steve minecraft, he is just going to be playing jack black. its so intensely disappointing when they had the opportunity to employ a new actor to bring to light like. imo steve minecraft should have been cast as just an average looking guy. just some random dude. BC THATS LITERALLY WHAT HE IS.

anyways tdlr the real steve minecraft just simply just a lil guy and he is NOT JACK BLACK

I feel, personally, like not enough people focus on the fact that in this iconic big tiddy moment

Falin is. Splattering someone’s brain on the pavement like a fine ragù.

Splat.
