#this is becoming one of my favorite ships..

[we-stan-the-stans-27]

Congratulations, you've awoken my Percy Jackson Hyperfixation from its deep ass slumber all so I can contribute to this beautiful and breathtakingly tragic AU.

Okay, so Ford is sent on a magic quest! Wonderful! The Oracle has chosen him to save the world! Right?

Except just stepping outside of Camp Half Blood is basically a death sentence (it's a miracle Stanley survived on his own at all, tbh) and Ford, Fiddleford, and Emma-May are 10000% going to run into monsters, trickster gods (probably) and some of my very favorite aspects of the Percy Jackson series'.

Ford and Stanley are supposed to be apart for thirty years, so I'm thinking Ford goes through something similar to the Odyssey (a comparison I love making with these two fucking idiots, but anyway-).

BASICALLY, Ford gets trapped inside the Lotus Hotel and Casino, in Las Vegas.

I mean. Come on. It's kinda perfect. Ford runs off on this big adventure, following clues and seeking refuge when necessary (this guy has no streets smarts and maybe at this point Fiddleford had been kinda been driven insane by their last monster fight. God only knows what happened to Emma) so. There isn't anyone who could see through such an obvious trap to get Ford out of there.

PAUSE-

Now, pausing Ford in his thirty's, trapped in the Lotus Hotel, with no memory of why he's supposed to be escaping (part of what makes it such a good trap, tbh) and we come back to how Stanley realizes he has a quest of his own.

Saving his dumb ass brother.

Filbrick has another kid, after his fling with a god. Both twins weren't worth the trouble (hence why they got shipped off to camp asap) and he started over with Caryn (a nice, lying, but normal mortal women.) She probably even acts as a nice enough step mother the maybe two times she saw or visited with Stan and Ford.

Not what I'm getting at. The point is, Schermie exists, he's human, but he's also Stan and Ford's half brother through Filbrick. WHICH MEANS DIPPER AND MABEL EXIST EVERYONE. My whole point of this tangent is to establish them in this universe. So if you take nothing else from this long ass post of rambles, at least listen HERE BECAUSE I'M COOKING.

Schermie is often stereotyped as the 'boring' sibling. Taxes, wife, a kid, the loving grandpa who maybe has a beach house. Depending on if you headcannon him as the older brother (which you could still do here and Filbrick just becomes a dirty cheater who cheats on his wife. I'm down~) He is also the perfect age to have served in the Vietnam war. He's got his own trauma which perfectly explains his own life and why he enjoys a quite cup of tea on the back porch listening to wind chimes and watching humming birds.

He settles down with a very nice women and they have their daughter. Who is also pretty normal. Good parents- they never divorce, or fight even if Schermie no doubt still suffers from PTSD and has his own issues -and that women is Dipper and Mabel's mom. She falls for her very own god, Ares, and gives birth to the other two protagonists. :)

It's so hard to pick a godly parent that matches both Dipper and Mabel at the same time. Not knowing which parent is connected to Stan and Ford genetically actually makes it more difficult to choose. Ultimately, I decided that the most obvious choice is the worst possible one.

Dipper and Mabel are both pretty disconnected from their parents, from what we see in the show. They were on the verge of divorce and heavily relied on each other growing up, fighting their own battles and the likes.

But they aren't your typical Ares child since they often have a naturally bulkier build, more muscles, and a natural fighting instinct.

Instead, Mabel loves to craft and keep her hands busy (although you can't tell me she wouldn't stab someone with a knitting needle if it came down to it) with a bubbly personally that lacks the blood lust of her father.

And Dipper? He's an even bigger disappointment with how small and 'weak' he feels compared to other kids his age. (Much less their half siblings in the Ares cabins. They are easily the smallest inside once they get claimed.)

So. Why Ares? Maybe their mom saw her fathers rage from war (his PTSD episodes) and you know how people say women marry people like their fathers. Or even grandfather, depending on how you view Filbrick.

Perhaps its some of that Pines anger and stubbornness passing down through both sides of the family.

Ultimately I picked Ares because of what we see from both twins in the show. They may lack blood lust, but that doesn't mean they aren't good at fighting. It's literally in their blood. Episode after episode we watch them literally dodge death time and time again.

Running away often, sure, but any good solider knows when to retreat. XD Plus. They're kids. Barely teens. So cut them some slack. They'll get better (probably through boxing, and practice) with age.

UNPAUSE!

Back to what's up with Ford, kinda. We're coming back to that, through our brand new Demigod twins Dipper and Mabel.

They go to camp for the summer- eventually get claimed after the two of them team up as a bunch of badasses and defeat some monster despite being way too young to be doing that -and meet the rest of the cast.

Wendy, daughter of Demeter. (You can't tell me that her dad, the lumberjack, wouldn't of been able to hit it off with her. He's charming enough that they had all of Wendy's younger brothers too. Explains why her mom is never around. Kinda stuck in the underworld most of the year. XD )

Candy and Grenda, daughters of Aphrodite. (You just know Mabel is so jealous and is obsessed with their mom until she grows up and realizes she's a cunt just like all their godly parents)

Not Soos though, not yet. (we'll get back to him, my beloved son of Apollo. He's a sunshine happy go lucky character. That's so Soos and you can fight me on that.)

From there (eventually) they get their own quest, travel across the country to visit their great uncle Stanley to find out the fate of their other great uncle Ford and what became of him on his quest where he was ultimately swallowed by the Lotus Hotel with Fiddleford. (Fids definitely went insane after fighting a monster and that's how they ended up in the hotel because Ford needed a safe space to take care of his friend. To bad they stayed to long and forgot why they ever wanted to leave.....)

I don't know how exactly Dipper and Mabel and Stanley find out Ford's fate (but they go rescue him when they do) but you best believe they absolute bond over their shitty godly parents. :)

Dipper and Mabel are kinda 'runts' like Stanley just with a different God. They bond over that 10000% and Soos too. He was probably never claimed (BOOOOOO) But-

OH MY GOD. Soos gets a postcard from Apollo- claiming him -and giving them a hint about where to find Ford in LAS VEGAS!?!? The worms are cooking good tonight guys. :)

Also, I had this idea that Stanley, to keep himself safe, sort of founded his own little camp in Gravity Falls. Maybe because of all the magic its a natural safe haven for Demigods and magical creatures to be safe from Monsters. That would explain why he eventually landed there and never ever left. Why Soos settled there, maybe that's even where Wendy is from. I kinda wanted her to go on the trip with Mabel and Dipper because lets be real. Even if they're a little older, someone has to be the slightly older adult on their quest. XD

Alright, that's all my word vomits. If anyone wanted to know. :)

Random Question: In a Percy Jackson Au, with everyone being related to the gods, who would be Stan and Ford's parent? B/c I keep thinking either Athena(Ford smart) or Dionysius(madness).

Hmm. Hard to say, because they are twins so it'd need to be the same one, and they're mirrors of each other which makes choosing difficult. Hmm.

Dionysius would work better than Athena, but maybe Eris? The goddess of chaos? Fits their general behavior.

Ares might be interesting, Ford thinking it was wrong only for him losing his temper and showing off his own skills as a son of war (filbrick parallel there maybe?)

Hermes would work too, fitting Stan but making Ford feel alienated? Before he goes on his own 30 year parallel journey and sort of goes 'ah no this feels right actually'

Poseidon seems too on the nose, but i'm partial specifically because he's also the god of horses.

Thats what i've got off the top of my head! Hope this helps!

Waiit!!!! Additional thought!

Athena would absolutely work, because not only does she suit Ford for the obvious intellectual reasons, she suits Stan for also being the goddess of handcraft, and both for being a goddess of war. Fords the stereotypical son of Athena (not actually as wise as he appears lol), while Stan not so much, more creatively inclined.

Because not only would Filbrick still be their dad, maybe impressing her with his business savey? or something? and dumping his terrible parenting on the two kids he didn't really want, you could def add more angst with them showing up to camp, staying at the Hermes cabin, and only Ford getting claimed. They're twins, nearly identical, but Fords her son in all the ways the rest of her children are, exhibits traits similar to the rest of her children, and has six fingers. I'm not an expert, but my brief research into the subject shows that six fingers was seen as something to celebrate by greeks? Could be wrong, but Ford being bullied hard because of his hands with mortals, then getting praised for it when he gets to camp sure does sound like something that would boost his ego and twist his insecurity about it.

And then there's Stan. He's not a stereo typical son of Athena, more creative and loose than his siblings. Leans more towards those craft qualities and warlike, and him being Fords twin makes everyone stop and second guess their assumption that Athena must be their mother, because Stan's so different. Must be Eris or some other minor god or goddess. something that can get two such different kids.

Then Ford gets claimed, and Stan doesn't. Everyone knows Athena is his mom, they're twins, so her not claiming him is a deliberate choice. Another snub in Stan's face, being second best, the unwanted child. Fords moving out to the Athena cabin, and Stans hanging out with the Hermes kids. And he'll brush it off! Say he was just too much to handle, and really the Hermes kids are more his style! Everyone knows the Athena cabin is full of nerds after all! He'd hate it there!

(He'd love it. Surrounded by his siblings, all of them passionately explaining what they're doing to him, sitting there and getting to be a sound board or someone to bounce ideas off of is all he ever wanted to be with Ford. Sure he might not understand what they're doing and might get rowdy, but he's sure they'd have just as much fun as he and Ford did back home)

So while Fords shining as the six fingered newest addition to Athena's cabin, Stan's now the black sheep of camp. Why wouldn't his mom claim him? Whats wrong with him that the goddess wouldn't claim a child everyone knows is hers? Is he even? What if he's some kind of monster, some new beast there to get them while they're guards down.

The simple truth is that his parents are both terrible, and both prefer Ford. Even if Stan proved himself and got claimed later, there's no recovering his reputation, and his relationship with Ford's always going to have that hanging over them, along with the experience Ford got being by himself in the cabin, then feeling like Stan got dumped on him just as he was becoming his own person. Not seeing that Stan's smiling and joking around to hide the fact that no one likes or trusts him, and Fords the only person who talks to him at all.

Then maybe he does something, messes up something up for Ford that endangers the camp, and yeah its not so terrible they'll kick him out, the feeling of the one person who gave him the time of day turning his back on Stan is enough to be the same thing. Maybe Stan just disappears one day, and everyone mutters about how right they must have been not to trust him, not to include him, not to want to do anything with him. Maybe Fords sees it as Stan deciding he was better off alone, didn't want Stan to leave but thought he had all the time to be mad and talk about it later, but now Stan's gone, and no one knows where.

Whew. That got way more intense then i planned. Anyway thats my thoughts on it!

[starryjkoo]

Yoomin getting realer and realer by day. Y’all gonna see when they reveal their relationship. I use to ship Jikook but now I noticed how non-exclusive Jikook are. Yoonmin go on private dates, while Jikook video tape their dates.

Omg lmao 😭 I know it’s better to ignore trolls but thank you for the ask because I will take this opportunity to yap a bit about Jikook 🙏

Firstly, I love yoonmin! but there’s nothing exclusive about them. Jimin and Yoongi were drinking and talking about music in the middle of the night, Jimin and Namjoon were also recently drinking and talking about music in the middle of the night (NJ said for three hours iirc). Yoonmin have gotten dinner and drinks together, Jimin has also obviously gotten dinner and drinks with other members too lol. TH was the only member at dinner with JH after his concert recently, does that mean they’re dating? (also can I say how cool it is that JM has been discussing music so much with namgi and how that’s giving me hope he’s going to be more involved with the group album?). Doesn’t the yoonmin story also remind you of the yoonkook wine date? JK was at YG’s home, they were drinking wine together and YG said they suddenly started writing ppl pt2? JK also sang the guide for it iirc.

I really enjoyed CH2 yoonmin and I believe that they grew closer through the experience of preparing their albums at the same time and doing some promotions together (oh wait, isn’t that company content?). Yoongi was someone who gave Jimin a lot of encouragement and advice in CH2, but there wasn’t anything particularly abnormal or eyebrow raising about any of their interactions either. I suspect you already knew that though and I don’t really want to dissect their relationship (I will hype it anytime though because I really do like yooonmin and their DdeunDdeun ep is one of my favorite comfort contents).

(As an aside, on top of the yoonkook wine date erasure, why don’t y’all hype minimoni more? Didn’t Namjoon say that out of everyone he’s met since becoming an adult, Jimin was the one he loves and trusts the most? Didn’t he post that Jimin poster recently during his walk, and didn’t they also have late night drinks too? Also the vmin erasure? They had the most skinship moments at JH’s concert and TH also posted like three vids with JM on his IG account? Also they had the most !!! moment during the recent live AND Jimin mentioned meeting up with TH for drinks during the military era, why do you only care about tkk meeting up at the gym or ymn, hm?)

And it’s funny to compare Jikook and Yoonmin too because let’s talk about yoonminkook for a minute here. First of all, I think Yoongi’s relationship with them is cute because on top of the music discussions, he kind of just looks after them while they do their little Jikook things. I loved the funny phone call on AYS where he answered it super gruff and then we found out that he had already watched JKs performance and knew they were together (bc YG is always keeping up with all of their schedules, he even created Suchwita for the members, it’s sweet).

But the story where yoonminkook were together for dinner (drinks? it sounded like they were at one of their homes) and then Jikook straight up wandered off and ended up talking alone for hours about singing. Or Jin’s concert recently? Now that is going down in the Jikook history books because the way that JK pretty much ignored everyone else unless Jimin was talking to them first was kind of wild to witness.

JK let Yoongi walk past him twice so he could walk specifically with Jimin. JK wouldn’t even go to the car alone, he waited on JM to take his video first, literally stopped and turned around just to walk with him too. Jikook also left together despite the fact that Yoongi arrived with them. It’s even more surprising because yoonmin are the ones who live in the same apartment complex (I know there was some debate on if jkk really left together, but it really did look so based on the unedited video, and on the off chance they didn’t it’s even more hilarious JK was waiting around for JM to take his vid instead of just going to his own car like YG did). I don’t even like making all that much out of the car thing, but for the people who do, there you go. Also it was cute when yoonminkook all took their seats and then Jikook immediately just turned to each other when looking at their free ponchos.

So yeah, comparing yoonminkook is certainly a choice. Yoongi has a warm and close relationship with both of them (yoonmin also have their cat and mouse thing) but Jikook have always spent the bulk of their time together and hovered around each other in a unique way. And by always I mean actually as long as we’ve known them and not a specific few month period people want to hyper-fixate on to push a narrative, because it’s not about a few months out of context, it’s about literal years of consistency.

It’s also crazy to try and take a dig at Jikook over the topic of exclusivity. I guess when you say exclusivity you’re thinking of things like dinner or drinks or car sharing. Those are things ALL of the members have done together, and while Jikooker’s might hype or enjoy those little things too, that’s not really what they mean when they talk about Jikook and exclusive. It’s more like GCF Tokyo, the hickey, rosebowl, JKs JM live, JM flying across the world just for JKs birthday, JKs birthday thirst trap, JM being one of the only members to consistently see JK on his birthday, enlisting together, creating a show and traveling the world together, “best trips of my life”, the way they constantly bring up Tokyo, and so on.

There are no two other members who have done all the things Jikook have done together, the types of ??? moments they have had with each other, and with the crazy amount of consistency on top of all of that. That’s literally why the whole company pushed ship thing exists in the first place. Other JM/JK ships literally have to find a way to discredit their moments to make sense. Jikooker’s do not have to do that at all (even though some of them do, but that’s because they’re petty and fanwars).

Part of the problem is the intense shippers who are bored and need to turn every little crumb of something into ship proof instead of just enjoying and having fun with it. It does set them up considering those “crumbs” are generally things all members do. Although that’s literally how tkkrs thrive so it works for some I guess. For me though, those things have always been fun bonus things that are cute but it’s not why the majority of Jikooker’s think that Jikook are weird or could have something going on.

Jikook spending eighteen months together in an extremely high stress environment and then coming back and choosing to spend even more time together is honestly just crazy to me. Show me two other members who have spent that kind of time together? I don’t even know two people irl who would want to spend that much time together without taking a break first. tkk couldn’t even stay at that ski resort the same amount of time because they wanted to do different things.

Jikook got back from the military and the first thing they wanted to do was travel and make content together. They also chose to go to Jin’s concert together instead of with other members (you can say they were jet lagged but NJ literally came straight from the airport), arrived and left together, and spent most of the concert engaging with each other. Even in the most recent live Jikook were still sitting near each other and had a lot of cute moments. Jimin was down on the floor but Jungkook still reached down to touch him several times, to look at his silly face, message, reassure, and gently berate him for being too self critical (although y’all can we stop being weird and hyper analyzing JK’s every twitch and counting how many times he touches the other members? Because it’s getting weird. Also the JK jealous thing is getting excessive (not @ the ppl sharing that one video tho, that’s the fault of the OP who edited it weirdly in the first place)).

Even the infamous car conversation is so interesting to me because it implied that Jikook have different standards and expectations for their relationship and keeping up with each other than they do with other members. The fact that Jimin had to explain to JK that sometimes, despite good intentions, it can be hard to meet up with people when you’re busy (a very common phenomenon for every working adult, he even used his relationship with TH as an example) shows that this was something they hadn’t experienced before and something that wasn’t acceptable for them (despite being the norm with other members, like vmin). Also how attached they’ve been since that trip and still are is pretty crazy.

So, once again, everyone knows the whole “for the cameras thing” is bullshit created by insecure tkkrs to try and explain the reason why tkk were never together (to the extent that would validate their ship, ofc they’ve always been friends and had moments) compared to how jkk were literally always around each other and often doing something weird. The thing is that Jikook were also the duo who spent the most amount of time together OFF cam for years too, so that narrative never made sense and still doesn’t (and I'm not unpacking the reason why pushing jkk as the fanservice ship makes zero sense because that's obvious and a lot of people have already explained that).

Also AYS is never going to be a drag for Jikook. They did not have to do that show and no one was expecting a second season from them at all. It actually created drama for them because it upset their solo fanbases (especially JKs) who were already going to be upset if the no more pre-OT7 comeback solo content thing is true. It’s clearly something they did because they enjoyed it and wanted to despite the possible backlash from huge sections of the fandom.

antis talking about them traveling with staff and yet it's the same staff that they’ve known and trusted for years and have a very good relationship with. That same staff is also helping them have some privacy and freedom by allegedly making people back off and delete some of the pics and videos they were taking of them. They’d also likely have to travel with staff regardless because of the way they’re stalked, sadly. It’s also content that can be edited so they can include whatever they’re comfortable with sharing and cut out whatever they’re not. They can also just turn the cameras off whenever they want, which they did in season one. I think they enjoy having all the control in AYS that they didn’t have with BV and ITS. It’s their show and they get to call the shots and decide all the little details which they obviously enjoy doing.

Jikook chose to do something together (just like the other members are choosing to do their own solo content right now) because they like making content together, they like traveling together, and they have fun when they’re with each other. Not sure how that’s supposed to be a negative lol. It’s a great format for them to share their military stories with us, but again they definitely didn’t have to do that when none of the other members have. They obviously like sharing their funny memories, little adventures, and relaxed moments with us, which is sweet. It's probably also fun for them to have that documentation considering how much they enjoyed watching the first episode together.

Anyways, I’m not even someone who has super strong or defined opinions on Jikook and the nature of their relationship other than they’re at the very least weird with each other in a way they aren’t with any of the other members. They are clearly incredibly close, love and rely on each other a lot, and have always had a deeper emotional connection and reliance on each other (and some bizarre physical moments).

There are some Jikooker’s acting unhinged right now and I think that’s mostly because of their frustration with the fandom being mostly tkkrs who are constantly attacking jkk (which is not up for debate, I’ll just keep pointing at their numbers and big accounts compared to ours) than any sort of insecurity. If there are “insecure Jikooker’s” (as in insecure bc of other ships) they’re a tiny minority and I wouldn’t trust their judgement when it came to their opinions on Jikook either (positive or negative).

Last note is that the yoonmin moment was very cute, quick, and unserious. Jimin was laughing pretty hard the whole time. Obviously tkkrs and ynmners being annoying will do their thing, but I’m also going to blame the jkkrs who wanted to push a JK jealous narrative on that when it clearly didn’t exist if you actually watched the clip. Once again, I hope people cut that out (I know sometimes it’s not serious and just silly, but it gets to a point…)

Also I think some Jikooker’s got kind of greedy and spoiled and forgot that JM and JK actually do interact with other members lol. There’s also very obviously nothing wrong with people enjoying shipping and hyping their moments with other members if they’re not being toxic about Jikook, but I get the frustration when people will do that for other duos while downplaying jkk, or “ARMY” accounts who will hype cult narratives that just enable them to grow larger and more insane. But also I hope Jikooker’s remember that while it’s very frustrating and understandable to vent about it sometimes, it doesn’t really matter if ARMYs hype Jikook the way they do with other duos because it’s not like it matters or has ever stopped Jikook from Jikook-ing lol, so… (and there are a lot of ARMYs who hype and appreciate Jikook, they're just typically not as chronically online or as deeply involved in the most toxic parts of fandom like twt. The majority of tkkrs are kind of miserable in life which explains why they have a larger online presence tbh).

[sasdavvero]

since yesterday @gwennevlis listened to my (small) ramble about this post, have a uh. projection moment

Blue Lock Characters and their FP [Favorite Person]

disclaimer: no, they don't actually have BPD nor do i think they do (apart from certified BPD-coded Alexis Ness lol. and Mikage Reo... mayhaps,,), this is just for funsies and angst ideas lol — like literally just me making up fucked up one-sided dynamics because having an FP is one of the worst things about BPD and i think it would be fun to explore the different — and totally made-up — possibilities. Hope y'all'll enjoy whatever blabble this is !

PS: I have BPD. I know what a FP is, or, I know my experience with one. Everyone has different experiences with FPs, as BPD is still a spectrum and we are all individuals who see and experience stuff in our own way. Cheers

— Bachira Meguru

Bachira's FP is Isagi Yoichi, if we consider only like, Blue Lock period of time. I don't think it would be his mother because that's how i see it. He defo would attach himself to Isagi so much that he becomes an FP tho, imo. Lonely kid with his first friend. He definitely had a teacher as a fp once. i think. maybe ...... anyway.

— Isagi Yoichi

Isagi never recognized nor did he know the meaning of FP (the acronym or even just what that was / how it worked) so he isn't even able to define who it could be for him. Having said this, from the start of the NEL, it's Noel Noa.

— Nanase Nijiro

From my own characterization of his siblings / siblings dynamics (never shown in the manga, only mentioned in trivia from last oct), i think his FP would be his older brother. If we don't consider him, since he's basically my OC (in a way), then it's Itoshi Rin. Because i need him to crash so badly. Nanase angst mmmmm. — [if we consider the 200k long fics where i actually made him have BPD (kinda), then his FP is Hiori Yo, with very similar reaction-behaviors related to Isagi Yoichi too (or vice versa, i don't recall much of that ff, but his whole being is based on both their way of being/existing, so, ye)]

— Hiori Yo

Hiori's FP is Karasu Tabito. Done. He's the cold remedy. He's the only one who saw through his façade pre Blue Lock. That's his best friend. Coincidentally, and sadly for him, that's his FP. :3 (he doesn't know about it tho. like he is i either in denial or completely unaware, sad ! )

— Itoshi Rin

Rin's FP is Sae. That's all I have to say. Someone applaud me. /joking

— Alexis Ness

I will agree with the countless of analyses/ meta post and say that Ness's FP is Michael Kaiser. Yeah. He is. You all are right about that. Good representation 10/10 we even got the neglecting family trauma ! nice (no, BPD isn't only caused by that. i'm aware. but it's possible [see: me :3] so! he is cool)

— Mikage Reo

Reo's FP is Nagi Seishiro ! Such a surprise ! We've seen him literally crash out on screen/paper... I feel like Reo is a cool representation, in a way. Of course, he doesn't actively know what an FP is nor does he think it's Nagi. He's just his best bro (cough, the person he shared his life dream with...). Tbh i don't really consider his character at all, not the biggest nagireo (platonic or romantic) considerator (?) but he deserves to be on this list.

— Don Lorenzo

Lorenzo's FP is defo Marc Snuffy. If we consider canon. If we consider the amazing DonDrago ship, then it's Drago (Enea, the dark haired Drago). Because, again, angst. yeah....

bonus Isagiverse. because i can

— Sette

I think Sette would have an Attention Person, and that's Bachira. I actually "headcanon" (meaning: i have to do research about the pd because for now i have not, but i really wanna for future fics) him to have HPD / BPD with HPD traits. Sette has only made friends/bonded with Bachira in his universe, and Bachira is always so kind. Ya know? Infinite supply, Bachira. That's so cool for Sette. I need him to have nice things. [Disclamer: i literally don't know anything about HPD so idk how an AP works. if anyone has more knowledge i'll gladly listen. but i will do research, I swear].

— Hachi

Hachi's FP used to be probably his dad. He has been crashing out since both him and his mum died. Though, his Equal Person is probably Bachira or Sette or Zero [same disclaimer as above: I have little knowledge about NPD, Hachi definitely has BPD, but with NPD traits – will make research on that too dw, if anyone has resources feel free to send, but I will do my own research)

[also feel free to correct me but from what i know the mechanism is: BPD-FavoriteP / NPD-EqualP / ASPD-ExceptionP / HPD-AttentionP — i might be making confusion between some tho, so again, ye. why has this become about Cluster B. Anyway. Ye take the FP headcanons and don't skin me alive for the HPD/NPD (most likely incorrect) mentions]

[king-aimee]

Is this a safe place to admit I kinda ship Oliver x Veena… 😥 ima start calling like Bluetooth or something idk. (Someone give me ship names for them!!!)

Before you start judging me HEAR ME OUT !!!

First, they are both best friends and have tea party’s together every day, I think. Veenas favorite part of her day,canonically, is having a tea party with Oliver

Second, Veena is canonically good at cooking and her favorite dish to make is pie! Olivers favorite food is rhubarb pie

Third, THESE PHOTOS EXIST!!!

(VEENA PLEASE JUST ONE CHANCE 🙏!!!)

Anyways, the creator confirmed that her favorite ships are the most likely to become canon

Fourth reason, Veenas best day of her life was meeting Oliver!

Fifth, they watch movies together , Veena likes Horror and Oliver likes Rom-Coms

Sixth, They play instruments together! Veena plays the cello and Oliver the piano

And just to add on Veenas favorite band is My Chemical Romance

These are all from the discord and Twitter and are confirmed by the creator

I even tried to put proof but some pictures I took are just badly taken so that’s my bad

[paladinrebel]

So I’m currently playing the first KCD game and I’m also watching the Hans romance on YouTube cause it may be unlikely I’ll play the sequel but from what I’m reading this is a surprise rare ship that came true that dudebros are kinda shocked it’s even an option but I mean???

It’s frenemies to lovers, bodyguard crush, noble/peasant, ‘best friends/roommates’, possible future tragedy, slow burn, the chemistry between them, and everything they’ve been through together!

Like what did they expect lmao

[singingvio]

I love romcoms

[bunbunsheart]

um.. some updated belle references i soup pouse say hi to him... again :O relationships under da cut!

[musicalmoritz]

I love the fucked up confusing power dynamic Akigure have because at first glance, fans seem to take away Shigure as the only manipulator in their dynamic. And that’s halfway true, Shigure does manipulate Akito. He betrays her in a way none of the other zodiac would dare to do. Hell, the whole setup of the plot happens because he slept with her mother. He is also a few years older than her and, while that doesn’t make their relationship grooming as a lot of fans say, it’s still going to impact them in some ways

But Akito is still the god of the zodiacs. She’s still above him, so much so that he has to fight to make them equals. He disobeys her freely but he could never completely leave her so long as the curse is in place. Akito was terrified of Shigure leaving her, but she also knew he didn’t have the power to do that. She physically hits him, just as we see her do with the others. She clings to Hatori in front of him to make him jealous. When he acts out, she banishes him from the estate- without setting him free completely

It is this push and pull that makes their dynamic so fascinating to watch. Although Akito gets a redemption arc, there’s no denying that she was an abuser for the bulk of the series. A healthy relationship would have been impossible to establish for her…with anyone normal, that is. By making Shigure as manipulative and sadistic as he is, he became the only character who could stand as Akito’s equal (given that it took him quite some time to get there). Most of the fandom seems to hate them for their toxicity, forgetting that said toxicity is very mutual. It makes them the only characters who can handle each other, and eventually allows them to have a healthy relationship in a very ironic way. They’re both aware that they’re bad people, and therefore they’re able to be patient with each other’s development. They’ve both hurt each other, and so the power dynamic becomes grayed rather than being outright abusive. For comparison, if Akito had ended up with Kureno instead that would have been a very depressing end for his character. But Akigure as endgame allows for a satisfying conclusion to both their character arcs, even a lot of Akigure haters will concede that “they deserve each other”

They make each other worse in a way that circles back around to making each other better. And I love them for that

"Is Amphibia gay like The Owl House?" It is gay, but certainly not like The Owl House.

remember how when saiki was crushing on satou and wanted to talk to him, instead of yk.. actually talking to him, he found out all of his interests and displayed his own interest in those things in front of him to try to get him to notice him??

yeah, now imagine him doing that when he has a crush on anyone else..

hes such a silly and awkward teenage boy i love it, like buddy you CAN just talk to your crush, you dont have to try to get him to "notice you.." but hes too silly and awkward so thats like the most he would ever do and would still probably think that that counts as flirting

im just... wondering about how saikis terrible silly flirting tactics would translate if his crush was on one of his FRIENDS.. like someone he could actually be around and would see and talk to him.. would he just like be trying to impress them ?? moving toward them more ?? adopting more of their mannerisms and interests maybe ??

imagine that like EVERYONE in the group would notice it, but it wouldn't be like "omg saiki is flirting" it would be more like "omg why is saiki being extra awkward and talking more" because hes so painfully unclear about his intentions but hes usually so quiet and unassuming that this would be such a stark contrast to his usual behavior...

I thought about this ship once and now i can’t stop thinking about them 💛

Can you elaborate more on Spencer wanting to make Henry dependent on him?

Would he do the same to Edward ? Like in the episode Edward the great?

Spencer trying to manipulate Gordon's friends?

spencer has some kind of weird toxic gay crush on henry. he's always liked men who are (in his opinion) in distress because they open an opportunity for spencer to swoop in and save them and feed his ego. henry's personality in spencer's head has been altered and dumbed down so severely to match his fantasies where spencer is henry's knight in shining armor who protects and takes care of him while henry is the damsel in distress who's waiting for big, strong spencer to take him away. this guy is a grade A freakster. henry just ignores spencer like he's scraps on a dinner plate and silently prays for his downfall.

after the events of the beast from sodor, spencer gained a microscopic smidge of respect towards henry. it's frankly embarrassing for him because henry's the one protecting spencer instead of the other way around like he envisioned. it doesn't stop him from annoying henry whenever he gets the chance. once, spencer left a note inside nwr 3's cab "call me if gordon's bothering you xxx-xxx-xxx <3 -S.S.G." and henry had to resist the urge to jump and dive head first onto the rocky road after finding it

speaking of gordon, spencer knows that if he DID manage to pull henry, gordon's gonna be extremely pissed off because 1) gordon is his cousin 2) gordon has been fumbling henry for around one and half a decade through gold dust-fueled mind-twisting situations yet they never ended up together and 3) spencer’s gonna have another insensitive stand up comedy material besides "dead siblings" and "dead father" which just excites spencer even more

edward isn't really spencer's type (wise, can stand his ground, etc) and he knows the older man can see right through him, so he's not interested in chasing after him. also henry will NEVER EVER return spencer's feelings mainly because he's just so annoying instead of the fact that spencer has ulterior motives for him and spencer will always remain having a one-sided crush/twisted infatuation/etc for henry

a little game I like to play called "block all popular ship tags" that makes tags for any big show become unusable :)

Someone who constantly embarks on ship wars and fandom wank... doesn't sound too mentally stable. It's sad, really.

Dedicating all that energy and free time to arguing about fictional characters and their relationships, instead of channeling it into something more relaxing or creative, sounds destructive.

Seek help, please. Before it devours you completely.

I'm sorry if this next post is be unnecessarily unhinged and make no sense at all but...

I'm still not over the fact that the actor who plays this autistic motherfucker...

...had a cameo on a random TV show which YouTube randomly recommended a clip of a few years ago (here's the clip for reference, that also has Yvette Nicole Brown's cameo)...

...and a while later I decided to watch that TV show because I thought the scene above was funny. The show is named Chuck and it is about a sitcom-type dork having a computer on his head and now having to live a double life in the spy world, where a blonde and a tough guy are his handlers (pictured below is the blonde and the titular dork)...

...and the dork and the blonde in the twisted way possible turned out to be one of my newest favorite ships ever...

This is fucking wrinkling my brain. What kind of butterfly effect sorcery is this?
