#this is one post i cannot put on twitter bc they don't have tags there so i can't do my full paragraph of out-of-band lawyerly disclaimers

[etirabys]

I feel worse eating monogamous animals. like... maybe that guy was married

[horizon-verizon]

Nettles isn't important at all. Nettles is just a plot device against Rhaenyra. Nothing else. And yes I also don't think Mysaria as a character was that important either. Also there's not enough source material to think Nettles isn't a bastard daughter of a Targaryen for any of us to especulate that she was just randomly chosen by Sheepstealer. Please do keep in mind that the sources are biased.

Didn't some of us (not you apparently) in the fandom and esp on Twitter already try to do this song and dance of "just a plot device" in Baela? The actual daughter of Daemon who also put Aegon into worse commission before he landed on Dragonstone and symbolically/ironically halted his attempt at a victorious display of kingship/authority/power, thus mirroring Rhaenys at Rook's Rest? No one (you) learned from that, huh?

In so far as there is a plot and every single character serves a purpose, every single character is technically a "plot device" and was put there for a reason. And both Mysaria and Nettles are "supporting characters":

A supporting character is a character who isn’t the main focus in the story but instead supports the protagonist in to ultimately help them achieve their goal, have a transformation, or ["or" is a magical word, really get to know it, anon] move the story forward. -- Studiobinder

So what you are really trying to say is that Nettles' importance and role in the plot is infinitesimal, nevermind her character or personhood. Take her out and the story/plot would stay the same or Rhaenyra would have had the last part of her fall still exist in the same way in the way it went. Same for Mysaria. Oh, and bc there is no proof or strong enough material to be relied on to believe that she isn't Daemon's bastard daughter, we cannot claim that she isn't Daemon's daughter and that's how she was able to bond w/Sheepstealer.

I already gave the reasons why the first part of this take is delusional HERE and HERE and in the given definition of "supporting character". However, in some posts under the tag of "daemon and nettles", not only have I accepted the bio-daughter theory as possible, I already explained how it is plausible HERE. I just so happen to present other theories for their bond and before a certain point I also said I didn't quite believe in the bio-daughter theory until I put more credence to it in one of the links I already gave.

Also, it's ridiculous to claim that Mysaria was unimportant to the plot/story when:

it is through her and her connections that Daemon got one of Aegon-Helaen's kids killed in retaliation for Luke's death; he wouldn't have been able to have that done as smoothly or at all w/o her; which also got Aegon so angry to risk himself in Rook's Rest (consequences, anon)

Daemon and Rhaenyra both used her for information so much and for so long that she became the official mistress of whispers after they took KL, which shows that they felt they could rely on her abilities, resources, connections, and desire for more power more than others'

she was the one who was rumored to suggest the Brothel Queen punishment (the event that many green fans say actually happened and what we were bombarded with for months on Tumblr and Twitter...but as for her suggesting it or making a not-so-offhand remark about it, that is plausible)

her exile back to Lys had a negative effect on Daemon and Viserys' relationship, even though Daemon never seriously rebelled against Viserys except in marrying Rhaenyra

Daemon--out of any and every sex worker he came across, including Valyrian-looking ones--decided that she was the one he'd at least stay around to hear speak and allow to be his mistress, to carry his child when he also already had a Royce wife for that...so something about her allowed her to be closer to the Targs; she isn't special just bc a prince chose her so much as she managed to get Daemon to think she was worth hanging around or useful in some way

she is the one to finally convince Rhaenyra that Nettles is a threat, and thus trigger the series of plot events of Daemon and Rhaenyra's demises -> Rhaenyra's targeting of Nettles set about getting rid of Rhaenyra's partner/lines of defense, disunified the blacks more, and thus made her more a subject of both more grief, new shock, and be vulnerable to other moving forces

Mysaria as her unique history, relationship, and present situation w/Daemon & Rhaenyra makes her act in the way she acts, puts her close to them, and thus be able to make critical choices/acts that lead to all their deaths in the way that we see them. Without her, things would have been a whole different, we'd have a different story. The same goes for Nettles. They both move the story forward or trigger/cause transformations in the protagonist(s). So this "just a plot device" nonsense is just that: nonsense. Secondary characters are not "unimportant" just because they are secondary, supporting (and not necessarily "supportive"), or/and not the main players or the protagonists/antagonists. They need to exist or there is no story that a plot outlines and provides.

Therefore, it has to be something else that makes you so defiant and dismissive of Nettles and Mysaria to be so desperate to downplay or erase them. You can't try to collapse a basic and fundamental understanding of literary study and knowledge and thus think unreasonably just because. So you either hate them (which can be for various reasons, like racism or classism or misogyny/misogynoir [you don't like lower-classed/SWs/darker skinned/racially demeaned people become more actively/thematically intrinsic to nobles' journeys] or what I describe next), hate how they move the plot into a place you do not like or make a favorite look/reveal an immoral or terrifying dark part of their personality, or the second guides you into the first if you aren't racist, classist, etc. This is thinking in bad faith, anon.

Also, the "the sources are biased" only goes so far in explaining the relationships between characters precisely because they are biased and/or were not there to witness so we could assess their witnessed narratives for ourselves. You have made the conclusion, still, that Nettles is Daemon's bio-bastard daughter (I'm assuming bc you were so adamant about its consideration), but the only way you could access information about Nettles & Daemon is through the text. You only know them bc GRRM created them and provided characterizations personality traits and events for them. Nettle being Daemon's daughter is a theory that comes from Daemon's philandering of his youth or pre-Velaryon/Targaryen marriages. This is a trait of Daemon's and bastards being born of aristocratic men cheating on their noble wives is a given in this feudal world--worldbuilding & characterization.

Who are you to try to tell me that these characters are not important by making it as if the same text and its unfolding story that we both are reading doesn't matter?! When you say there isn't enough "material" to say Nettles is/isn't Daemon's kid, but imply that there is enough to think that she is, thereby revealing your use of the text. Your arrogance is astounding.

Inktober 2022: A reflection

This year I did Luna ‘s (who is an amazing artist!! Check them out on Twitter!!) Inktober. Spoiler, I did not do all the days as I got sick halfway through and then just stopped lol. However, it was remarkable good practice and I learned a lot! One might say you can see me improving 👀 It gets better, promise!

Here the full prompt list:

by https://twitter.com/LunaIsAnArtist 

1. Sprout

yes this is bdubs fanart, (I’ll do a separate post with the fandom one and tag them there) Also learned about gradient maps!

2. Ladder

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to render stone, and it really shows

3. Glory

I do not dislike this one, however Clip Studio Paint's weird artistic render line feature really stole the show here lol

4. Investigation

Played with gradient maps again. The color is sure something!

5. Rosemary

At this point, I was wondering if a completely lineless painting style was something I even like? And honestly it has its appeals, and I think ill keep playing with it, but I missed having lines.

6. Home

Them <3 @liebesamateur​

7. Boots

I love this little buddy!! Look at them!! Lovely!! Also this was when I decided to return to a more painterly lined look for my art again :D

8. Voice

This is one of my absolute favorites!!! The light hello???? also the tiny pumpkin on the hat :D

9. Fragment

Did a study of a lemon and went you know what would be fucked up

10. Ranunculus

this looks so much better than it has any right to!! Indie game vibes hello?!?

11. Moss

Bdubs fanart again, but look at him, he's just a little guy! Very much based on countless designs I’ve seen all over. (if you know the OG lemme know) Certified creature.

12. Worth

I don't like this one... The concept is there, but the execution is sloppy and kinda off-putting. The only thing I kinda like it the blood at the very top opening.��

13. Float

I love this very much not anatomically correct baby!!!

14. Poppies

I mean long arms!

15. Zodiac

I’m torn bc on one hand the background is stunning, I love the colors. On the other hand, this would have looked too much better lineless, and the lens sky reflection is just lazy and doesn't fit with the rest of the style.

16. Evolution

GHOST CRAB!! I downloaded some new brushes, and it was just sooo much fun. 

17. Meadow

I really like everything except the “flowers”. The clouds and background/foundation is solid, but the weird flower brush is too sharp and it just doesn't work. Also, the colors of the flowers are supposed to be in shade and idk man 

18. Examination

Now this one could make more sense, like perspective wise and the highlights are a bit wack. However, it's really cool and I like it a lot. The bluish tint for the glass, the goldish bronze, the background yes!!

19. Reflection

The poses for this kept just not working out. I couldn't get the angles, nothing made sense, so I made them silhouettes! And it works nicely. I like this one. I am kinda starting to overuse that background contrast thingy, but it's fiiiiiinnnne. Also, the curtain??? The red pops so well hello, its just bam, and it deserves to do that. 

20. Bullet

It's a bullet train! Get it? Anyway, I really like the burn effect for this one and I wanted to make it a spooky train. One thing I'd improve is how the likes are fading into the smoke, it doesn't look quite right.

22. Bones

This is kinda my burnout point and it shows. The line thickness is all over the place, I didn't work on this very much and just slapped some things on there and put it up. I'd love to draw a proper pile of bones someday, but this wasn't it.

23. Mutation

I do kinda like this one, and I don't have any major complaints. I just remember not really feeling doing Art™ at that time.

29. Wyvern

I sketched this the next day and was so normal about it. Idk if this is really a Wyvern, but it looks cool! I really like the frame and breaking it. It gives a nice break and depth!

What's up with people just disliking Aang anyway? He's completely fine as a character, you don't have to like him and not everyone needs to know that you don't (though maybe you should try to understand him however as the protagonist). Also, criticism and nitpicking that could be easily construed as hate is not the same thing, hence the still very weird and redundant anti Aang posts that are being tossed around instead of posts like, "respectfully, this aspect could've been improved if this, this, and that happened instead." etc, etc. Hence "Aang stans" complaining about this occurence. How was Aang's treatment in fandom pre-resurgence? I find solace in that it definitely didn't feel as awful since not every person who took a minimum of one course in social sciences/women's history/"the west is just awful" had full, easy and free access to ATLA, but they do now and are making this fandom tragic to be apart of. Don't even get me started on Instagram and Twitter, which consists of irritating vibes everywhere. And for what reason other than us being trapped at homes during a pandemic? Don't you guys want to be healthy?

What's up with people just disliking Aang anyway?

So what had happened was from my recollection, what usually makes fandoms spiral out of control: shipping.

In this fandom, every resurgence, we get lovely new people with their inclusive art, personal cultural takes and honest improvements to the treatment and understanding of characters who otherwise weren’t prominent talking points at the time (for example: Toph being a cop. Everybody was too busy wondering who her 2 baby daddy’s were and why Toph was written as a absentee mom so, we half the new people get to debate that it makes no sense for her to grow up to be a cop while others of us who understand white passing can kind of see how the daughter of a prominent background and impressive fighting career and sticky fingers managed to quickly place herself as head of authority) like Ty Lee being an Air descendant or Sokka being hot. We were all kinda trying to make sense of Korra back then my g

But its tumblr yknow so we have conflict and the quickest conflict to join, the quickest way to interact if you aren’t skilled in long dissertations or gif making, is probably shipping? In my diagram that I made up while typing this I explain: Artists and writers need new fans to boost morale, it fuels the creative process creates amazing art, that art is seen by even more because its being shared around the fans, people form friendships, get inspired - the whole fandom gets nourished.

The problem is somebody starts liking how somebody look wit somebody else, they get mad that you don’t, somebody shouts ‘You silly new fans fighting about this new ship. I was here for Zu-‘ and really that’s where you should stop its going to be an actively bad time if you let it.

Aang for a long time was kind of safe? So, you could say it was his turn to get hate because maybe some fans see things in Aang they somehow disagree with and you can’t fault them for that. One problem is everything starts getting cross tagged bc now everyone wants to find people with the same opinions as them and have the same fun they see everyone having in a fandom and a lot of fans think yelling at each other every day is the fun part.

Aang is an easy target for a “hero wins trophy” debate but it falls short when you realize at no point was said girl treated as a trophy and if they see her as that, its not the shows fault? Some people don’t see the strength in knowledge, and I mean hey, its just fiction at the end of the day. There’s plenty of this same story told in different ways on other platforms to slap an element bending AU on.  

Aang is a nonviolent character introduced as an innocent child and some people cannot see through such a perspective, especially for their hero (there’s also certain people who already had the experiences new fans are getting and don’t know how to be happy for the new demographic target). But Aang’s nonviolence is a constant struggle for him; Aang is a more subtle character when it comes to his redemption arc and a lot of viewers miss it, don’t care about or think its poorly executed.

Simply put idk don’t listen to me I’m just sayin fandoms cycle through character hate like seasons. I personally suggest you spread positivity about Aang, as its incredibly easy find. On twitter especially please remember that those are the same freaks that would yell over here, and we all ended up ignoring it, that’s why they’re twitters problem now. A more proactive approach I find, is to make fun of it- child have you seen their material? They call the boy abusive I mean you have to laugh, meanwhile artists are making Aang brown like baby we’ve progressed past the need

oatplant ur like the only person in the notes of this fuckin post that I respect lmao

like yeah! it sucks not to be noticed and to work your ass off for no recognition! trust me I get it, it's happened to me! it's happened to nearly every single artist who's ever lived!

but like oatplant said, if people not interacting with your art in the way you want them to makes you that miserable, don't do it! Don't post your art!

(And bc I saw someone being obtuse about this point in the notes, this is not saying 'if you're miserable, just stop being miserable' it's saying 'if partaking in this action/interaction is making you miserable, stop partaking in this action/interaction', there is absolutely a difference)

I do not like to be told how to interact with art. My blog is my blog, and I'll put what I want on it. No one is entitled to someone else's attention, or time, or space.

People will interact with your art however they want. As oatplant said, you cannot control what other people do, but you absolutely can control your own perspective, mindset, and reactions. You can either accept that sharing art on tumblr yields a specific kind of interaction (and literally always has, despite what some people say this type of post has been around for years and has done nothing to change the way people engage with art here) and learn to be happy with that interaction, or you can choose not to accept that and go find a different platform to share art on that will yield an interaction that's more to your liking.

(btw when people say that tumblr is a better platform for artists than twitter, afaik they're talking about the fact that reblogs, unlike quote tweets, don't take engagement from the OP, so if a huge account reblogs your art and you get thousands of notes that engagement goes to you and not to the person who reblogged your art (unlike being QRT' d on twitter). As well, the tagging system means that it's much easier to go through a blog's archives, which means that if someone stumbles across a piece of yours that's tagged, for instance, like, 'superwholock', they can go through your whole tag of 'superwholock' and like/reblog your entire tag even if the tag goes back ten years. This has happened to me multiple times, I still have old-ass art that gets notes, and people who go on like/reblog sprees because they trawl through my tags)

anyway yeah, artists on tumblr stop being weird about engagement challenge

tumblr users all of a sudden: oh yeah this website is SO good for art hehehe it’s waaayyyy better than twitter it’s so supportive of artists we love art so much here uwu art for the win!! ✨ 😘 💕 😋✨ artists who have spent the last 4+ years on their hands and knees begging people to reblog their art just to be ignored every single time because half this website acts like their nuts will be ripped off with the claw end of a hammer if they reblog a single drawing:

Lune I just talked abt milgram to my friend and now she's off to her tutor SO PLEASE DON'T MIND ME RAMBLING ABT THEM TO YOU!?2)3)2)4)2 anyways on your post one of your tags “you cant really vote based solely on moral and values” AND THAT HITS A LOT the best example is yuno on her second trail!!! spoilers if you havent listened/read abt it but yuno says there that she thinks that our (viewers) sense of rigthousness is pathwtic and that she doesnt want us to vote her innocwnt based on our morality and values. she thinks we are only giving her half-baked justice and that we are only looking at their thru rose-tinted glasses. she's very much self-aware of her actions.

I CANT REALLT SAY ANYTHING BUT KOTOKO but mu.. for mu i actually relate to her on a personal level But i wont be talking abt her since you dont agree with her! but if you want to hear what i have to say abt mu, feel free to give me the go sign!!! ANYWYAS FUUTA SO FUUTA YEAH FUUTA OH MY GOD SO ABT HIM!!! he has a heavily misguided ego and has huge hero complex and has this tough guy act so yeah! maybe a facade of looking like the hero!! pair it up with his strong sense of justice, fuuta thinks everything he did is right or like maybe and it makes it worse bcs social media adds more fuel to the fire which makes fuuta blinded by his own heroic sense. he was voted guilty in his first trial bcs if people haven't then he would be blinded by his ego and thinks that what he did was right. milgram was a place where he could taste his own medicine and that he could know that his actions cannot or may not be justified. out of all, he has the chance of redeeming himself but he needs to let go of his ego first and learn to hold his temper. he doesnt feel guilt for his victim bcs he thinks he did nothing wrong and that he is not guitly.

OH MY GOD I WILL REPLY TO YOUR OTHER ASKS LATER OH MY GOD IM SO SO SORRY I JUST NEEDED IT OUT OF MY HEAD 😭😭😭😭 BUT YEAJ PLEASE DO HAVE A NICE DAH AHEADKAKFKWKDKE AHHHH IM SUCH A MESS RN FORGIVE ME

HI YORI IT'S SO NICE SEEING YOU HEHE DWDW RAMBLE AS MUCH AS YOU WANT!!!?!?! >:3 my reply got rather long oh dear i'll put it all under cut SORRY FOR RAMBLING HDFKASDJLF I'M A MESS RN BUT🫶🏼

"you cant really vote based solely on moral and values",, YEAH WITH YUNO AA oh my hehe i really. really like how self-aware it is it's really interesting to see ahhh all the characters in milgram r so interesting!!!!!! hdfjalksdf thinking about what you said n yeah personally n. you mentioned you too & apollo thinks the same n majority does as well that yuno's innocent w abortion n all but it's just. so interesting thinking of what wld happen to her?? after this trial ><

ON KOTOKO AA IIRC. THEY'RE V SPECIAL TO YOU RIGHT I'M SORRY HDKJAFLKSD ngl for as critical as i may be at times i genuinely find all the characters in milgram interesting n. KOTOKO IS STILL COOL /gen n she's so interesting honestly but.. the violence 😭😭 i'd love to hear you ramble about her too if ever you want !???! genuinely i wldn't mind at all hehe (just. saying in case you wna ramble bcs genuinely i wldn't mind at all i'd love to hear actually what any of the charas mean to you or wtvr ><)

MU 🥺 i don't know how to say this so honestly i'm just gna be blunt n straight-forward about it rn SORRY IF EVER HDFLKSJDAFL but i understand you! i saw your twitter & :( WAIT GENUINELY I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GO ABOUT SAYING THIS but i really do understand /gen n honestly i'm probably critical n conflicted on mu's character bcs i relate to her as well to a certain extent.. & oh my god i'm rambling but i myself know well the. "villain" thing & feeling like a monster,, no one ever deserves that t_t ngl i'm worried about like. the direction she took in those previews n all after the first trial. honestly aside from like yuno who i personally think with abortion and all really is innocent and i don't think that counts as murder, the rest of the prisoners are all guilty in some way with some sort of "murder" yeah and they're also victims too. i THINK at least.. i'm not the most knowledgeable yet >.> so with mu it's really sad honestly; i think her "high pride" as mentioned though iirc is just something that hmmm stands out to me especially personally. as well as. i'm not updated with stuff like the voice dramas and all but.. personally i think it just makes me rather sad w the uhh preview for her trial 2 songs bcs i doubt she hasn't made her own mistakes as well but the 'i didnt do anything wrong' things :< we all have our faults & we all can move past them but the certain sort of lack of self-awareness that i feel from her development into trial 2 personally makes me a bit sad but i find her character interesting on a personal level >.>

i really just rambled w that aaaa with that said though hehe feel free to go on! i genuinely would really love to hear what you'd say on her character hehe bcs my mind is a mess oh my god n your insights help make it clearer N GENERALLY I AGREE V MUCH!!!! so go ahead <3

FUUTA! FUUTA! HDJFLASKJDFD iirc i remember seeing you mention once i think to apollo that he's also one of your favs!?!?! ON TWT.... ON THAT BTW SORRY FOR THE SPAM I LIKE MY FRIENDS' POSTS A LOT 😭😭 THAT SAID THOUGH! YOU'RE SO RIGHT. ty hehe hearing that cleared my head on it, i very much agree! fr he definitely has a good chance of redeeming himself. guilty first trial definitely i do think that was for the best, i hope this trial by being forgiven, maybe he can forgive himself,, ? (rambling a bit again but sometimes when i see people's reasoning for voting fuuta & by extent kotoko n honestly other characters it just rubs me off the wrong way when they really only look at the surface 😔 i find it really interesting though thinking of how it really reflects on the audience) next though on milgram! yeah! milgram for him is like. fuuta used to judge others n now he's the one being judged (something like that) n it's really. interesting yeah really just milgram is so intriguing oh my god. this has gotten really long >.>

NWNW AT ALL YORI THAT'S ABSOLUTELY ALRIGHT ITS OKAY <33 JUST REMEMBER TO TAKE CARE OKIE 🫶🏼 I'M GETTING TO THIS SO LATE HKFJADLS i saw it like when i was rambling earlier BUT MY. ATTENTION SPAN HFKJASDLF SORRY 😭😭😭😭 genuinely tho dw fr NO RUSH! N I'M A MESS TOO c: I HOPE YOU HAD A NICE DAY N SLEEP WELL ( ´ ˘ `)/♡

Modern College Au Girl Genius things:

-Agatha uses the fact that she literally ran away with the circus as her fun fact every time.

-In every groupchat Tarvek is nicknamed Weasle. He hates it.

-Klaus can hack the government, but doesn't quite get how Twitter works.

-The big end of friendship event with Tarvek and Gil is over Tarvek supposedly stealing Gil's prized stuffed animal Zoing (he didn't do it. Klaus donated it in a toy drive accidentally). This grudge lasts well into college.

-the ot3 aren't childhood friends, just Tarvek and Gil ,but as three gifted kids who are probably neurodivergent they ran in the same circles.

-The series of events that leads to the ot3 getting together in college could put any romcom drama to shame. It is stupid, bad and embarrassing the whole way through.

-the jaegermonsters are a frat on campus that Agatha tutors for. Zeetha accidently ends up as a pledge bc she saw the hazing and thought it looked fun and joined in.

-Higgs is campus cripted and maintains all other traits from cannon. He is just simply like that.

-Violetta lives with Tarvek to save money. Gil only remembers that Tarvek has a sister ,nothing about her, so he ends up thinking Vi is Tarvek's sister for close to a year.

-Agatha and Zeetha still meet when Agatha runs away to the circus.

-Agatha still calls Judy and Punch her mom and dad, but also calls Bill dad. Lucrezia still murders KB in this. She spent the school year with Punch and Judy, and spent the summer with her dad and uncle when she was a kid.

-Gil is parent trapped in this, but does not know this because his dad refuses to clarify if it was that or parental abduction. Bang is indeed his older forster sister.

-Bang is on a sports scholarship and is in every full contact sport she can get her hands on. I'm thinking she mains Rugby.

-Tarvek's family is the same, just switch out nobility drama with rich family drama. His dad was ceo of a fortune 500 company and also a serial killer.

-Anevka killed their dad in self defense. She also used a wheelchair since birth.

Headcannons for the strawhats stealing cloths from eachother:

Luffy: has stolen cloths from every member of the crew, and from every person who has been on his ship for more then two days. That is if you can get him to change.

Zoro: doesn't really do it often, but if he does it's either from Nami or Usopp. Once took one of Robin's long skirts because he was both tired and hungover, didn't notice it wasn't his until Robin sent a hand to pick it up

Nami: if she steals it, it is now hers. You cannot ask for it back, you will have to take it. She will charge you for it .Doesn't do it often because her tastes run better then everyone, but isn't against it.

Usopp: is the big victim of Luffy's cloth stealing, so most of his stealing is getting crap back. Sometimes grabs a tie from Sanji, but always puts it back afterwards.

Sanji: Does it the least, only the occasional item from Brook. He does the most yelling when he finds someone stealing his cloths.

Chopper: little man is too small to have anything fit, so he doesn't do it at all.

Robin: Takes from Nami or Sanji. She's subtle about it, and it's difficult to even notice.

Franky: He was to big to be able to share cloths with anyone until Jinbe joined. The only real thing of note is the time he got oil and cola all over some of Jinbe's stuff, he put it in with the rest of Jinbe's laundry and hoped no one would notice. They did.

Brook: Believes the crew works on a communal clothing system because of how often Luffy takes the others stuff, and the fact that that was how it was on the Rumbar pirates.

Jinbe: Like Franky he can only take from Franky and have it fit. Once wore one of Franky's shirts into port and got hit on by every vendor he saw. It got so awkward that he stopped entirely.

I am sure that Gil and Tarvek will kiss while in Paris. You can quote me on this.

It's the ideal scenario for it:

1. Gil and Tarvek are separated from Agatha and will do one on one banter

2. Holds major memories of their antagonism start

3. Provides great ground for them to kiss and then immediately talk about Agatha completing the trifecta

4. Please Foglois, please 🥺🥺

Me @ my friends: hi, I know you want something short, but have you considered reading this series that's been updating on a weekly basis since the year 2000 at the least.

Man, I legitimately dont think there is anyway to put Tarvek's dad as anything but a serial killer in modern au's.

Like you can kinda soften the others home lives, like Lucrezia could have tried the same stuff as in cannon but was stopped, divorced and given a restraining order. Gilgamesh could have a parent trap situation instead of parental kidnapping, but Tarvek?

The only option is for his dad to be a serial killer

[dankpaladin]

Heyo!! OMG MY OWN TAG! I feel very honored! Well I do have Google with all its extras and Skype(all these to talk to people directly) but ive been debating whether to get tumblr or Twitter. I don't which to get both have their merits and downsides so... Idek any more :// I saw the content you've been posting, IT IS AWESOME! You go tell em! I found ur blog on a Voltron Directory Blog they had u listed and said it's ship free so here I am! ~Z

Part 2 (bc I talk too much): I LOVED THE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! It was beautiful (Lance lacked in that department tho but I feel like they’re building him up for S3) I wish they would regard Coran as more of a caring character than a comic relief one (so much potential flashbacks w/Altean past!). The Keith arc tho. My soul cannot take it anymore. Hunk and Keith bonding! (It’s precious)! ~Z

P3(shut youp Z!): I want a direct opinion on how to call Pidge? My siblings, my bestie (i brainwashed them in joining the fandom *cackles*)and I regard her as a she but the fandom say that we are against gender fluid characters and I got scared cause I didn’t mean that!? But Pidge was awesome! (Leads on her bro!!) WHERE IS SHIRO HE BETTER BE ALIVE DREAMWORKS OR THIS GIRL WILL BE MAD! All in all I love Voltron more. Ur opinion? ~Z

Yes! you have your own tag! :-) a good way to file our discussions in one place! and oh ok that makes a lot of sense. my sister doesn’t have social media either but she has a fair idea of what’s going on in fandom thanks to me & bcos of her own lurking as well. and thats totally fine! there’s no need to force yourself to make either! OH lmao I completely forgot abt the directory. the description is sorta inaccurate now since Im not Lnce biased anymore so. though I will still be ship free! Thank u for your support and kind words! 💓

I agree abt Coran. tbh he is the True Space Mom, like I really enjoyed his moments with Lance in S1 like when he consoled him on his homesickness & then when they were both cleaning the cryo-pods. and like.. how he cares about Allura so much!?! ok and also, Im sure you’ve heard this already bc i dont think anybody was impressed lmao but I wasn’t a big fan of how they shoehorned Hunk into a comic relief role either, like the food jokes were just.. poor taste. I don’t think the creators meant to demean him in any way, but with the more serious & weighty tone of the main arc focusing on Keith and his heritage, they needed to have that comic relief to balance it out. Not justifying Hunk’s treatment he rly did deserve better but I can see why they did that. I dont like it though.

Lmao the fandom is SO harsh Im sorry you were made 2 feel that way. I think both she & they pronouns are fair game. though its canon that Pidge identifies as a girl—whether trans or cis is all headcanon territory—thanks to that one scene where she was told to ‘man up’. To add though, I see her as sort of on the spectrum... like a demigirl. i don’t think she feels strongly about gender.. as in.. she doesnt seem to hinge a lot of her identity on it? not saying that gender unimportant to her, but compared to the grand scheme of things: the whereabouts of her brother, being a paladin of voltron etc, I doubt she puts a lot of weight into it. but when she is confronted with it lmao like that little scene in the space mall and how confused she was.. Pidge is still young and like, gender is fluid, like you said. she’s probably trying to get a grip on her own gender identity herself .. and thats very much an ongoing process. I think its really open to interpretation, so either one is all right. I think he/him pronouns would be misgendering though since she did express discomfort*

Pidge was really endearing throughout the season THOUGH! I have a little. bit of criticism. but its not about her, but how her intelligence was framed? it was poor taste how the show needed to make Lance & Hunk look dumb to make Pidge look smart. considering race and all, it’s really REALLY! poor taste having to discredit two brown boys’ intelligence in order to elevate a white person’s? Like i know the creators probably didn’t mean to do that, but thats what happened when they made both Hunk & Lance the comic reliefs! I’m sure there is a way to frame Pidge as her genius self without degrading H&L, like u could have them nodding along & extending upon her ideas. HUNK at the very least who’s supposed to be the engineer of the team should have been 😕. I read somewhere on a twitter that they could both be like translators lmao, and like explain Pidge’s rambles in layman’s terms to Shiro and Keith (who prob know nothing abt engineering and all that, being solely pilots and all) and Allura and whoever else is lost lmao. Like i don’t think making them look dumb was necessary at all 😔

Im super concerned about Shiro as well 😭 Other fans are guessing he’s stuck on that astral plane which makes sense of his really really abrupt disappearance. im really curious abt whether his stay in the astral plane will involve more black lion flashbacks + more fleshing out on the history of Voltron? That would be really interesting.

And no! dont shut up! Ever!! I’m eager to read & discuss as u can see w my own long response lol! This was really enjoyable to reply to!! 

*note: I’m not an expert on gender identity.. like I do relate to Pidge abt this a lot lol so if I said anything offensive/incorrect, please let me know so I can improve upon myself!
