[ccieatchildren]

I’m sure we’ve all seen by now Steve Blackman’s reasoning for Five/Lila stating:

“I felt that Five had to have a love story.”

And how it shows how this man somehow has such a deep fundamental misunderstanding about his own characters. How he helped create the first three seasons of this show and doesn’t realize that

This is Five’s love story.

Umbrella Academy the show wouldn’t exist without Five’s love. The whole plot and story is it.

He is the catalyst of all the plot lines while his family is the center of all the story beats. His love is the instigator for all the events of the show simply because he chooses to do everything possible in the hope that it will save his loves.

It’s not like this was even a subtle idea because Five literally states it himself multiple times over the series!

I just don’t understand how you can get it so wrong.

He creates the Commission in hopes of regulating the timeline so his family won’t get obliterated from existence, tattooing himself with the potential solution to rewriting the universe so they can all live happily one day.

He survives the apocalypse all on his own, when there was no real reason to, just because he believed he could get back to his family, spending 50+ years developing the math to one day do so.

He joins the Commission and murders and maims and manipulates in the desperate attempt that he might have a chance to go back and see/save his family.

He spends the first time he sees his family after over six decades not with them, but rather searching for a way to stop their deaths, sending them all through time when it doesn’t work.

He runs himself ragged stopping apocalypse after apocalypse just for them.

And when he loses all hope, accepting the kugelblitz, he is content to know he is doing so with his family.

As much as this show is about the whole family, ultimately, imo, this is Five’s story about his grueling quest to save the family he loves.

Because otherwise this show wouldn’t exist without him and the rest of the characters would just be decorations in the rubble of a world long gone.

So to say bro needed a love story— he doesn't say romance, but love story— is so durna, like what??? I guess if you really wanted him to have a romance you could do that, but there were many better options than the wife of someone he deeply loves, something he would never do.

(Not to mention all the real world implications of the romance with the actors, production really was waiting for him to be legal ಠ_ಠ)

Also I don’t think it’s a coincidence that many fans view Five somewhere under the aro/ace umbrella (pun intended).

Now, because of this misconstruction the ending of the show also suffers.

Brushing over all the mind boggling things the real ending says about abuse, its victims, and growing from it (which is actually like how did no one look at that and think hmm maybe this isn’t right for the story we’ve been telling), it also misunderstands love. It tells the audience that love isn’t worth it, in a show… about love. Not just Five’s but Hazel/Agnes, Viktor/Sissy, Allison+Claire, and more. How all your pain and suffering and tribulations for those you love are stupid and useless and cringe.

But y’know what, Mr. Blackman, I think you’re cringe for that absolute bonkers bananas ending.

And that’s why having the solution to the series being that Five should have never jumped in the first place would have been the best ending.

Making it so that the only solution to save the whole universe be that Five stay with his family, with those he loved— what he had been trying to do for the whole show— would have been the perfect conclusion to the story. It would show that all he had to do was stay, because that’s all they ever needed, that’s all he ever needed.

AND IT WOULD MAKE LOGISTICAL SENSE.

Five and Viktor are well confirmed to have been the closest ever since they were young. And Five (doesn’t matter if he’s the now Five who lived through the shows events or the young one who ran off) would most certainly be a supportive figure in Viktor’s life. He’s smart, for one, and it wouldn’t be a stretch for him to figure out what was really going on (especially with his hatred of Reginald) and help Viktor that way. But even if he doesn’t, when they grow to adults and Viktor naturally doesn’t take his pills or his power starts showing, Five’s love and care for his (closest) brother would most certainly help prevent the apocalypse. Especially since if Five and Viktor are close, as they grow older, I feel like the others would grow closer as well, maybe not the same degree, but they would be more willing and supportive of Viktor in the end (I feel like Season 1 shows us how at the end of the day the siblings do care for Viktor, but they were just too late, so this time they wouldn’t be).

Through the subway we see the timeline where he jumps still exists, so that should mean there is a way for him not to do that. His jumping (and the siblings he brings along) is what creates the paradoxes and the "need" for the Commission. So by him not jumping, problem solved.

This might come at the cost of the current versions of the characters, but I think if they can make the developmental journeys they did once, I think they can do it again, and have a happy ending.

(Also the Jennifer incident wouldn’t happen either bcs of Five or just bcs that plot line was so fluffin stupid, so yay alive Ben)

(And Diego and Luther meet Lila and Sloane respectively cuz they are also part of the marigold brood so they still do exist at the same time, so yay happy couples)

It is somewhat simple, but I think that works as well, especially for a character like Five. He spends so much time looking at all the different equations, trying to find some complex solution to everything, trying permutation after permutation (as evidenced by our and the diner Five's), when it was right in front of him. Idk, I just think it would be nice if he just decided to stay with his siblings instead of running off.

Sure it may not be completely perfect, maybe Ben still does die, or Klaus can’t meet Dave again, or characters still find themselves prey to their arrogance but I don’t think it needs to be, because real life isn’t perfect. But the bonds we make and the love we share makes it so, a major theme the Umbrella Academy isn't unfamiliar with.

And it just makes me so deeply sad that this isn’t the ending we got. That this isn’t the ending the characters got.

They deserve so much better than Blackman gave them, and it’s a disgrace that he didn’t.

[sorcerous-caress]

I would like to maybe request the different BG3 party members finding out a Tav with a tough guy act was secretly ticklish? Just fluff all around

Finding out you're ticklish

[ fluff, nb!Reader, several characters ]

[ reader is a tough cold badass person ]

Karlach

Absolutely abuses it.

She has been trying to get you to loosen up for a while. As cool and badass she thought you were, she was sure there was a fun side to you.

Took it very personally to try to get you to laugh, bad puns, slipping on a banana peel, and even asking Gale to borrow one of his nerdy type jokes. Alas, you were as expressive as a stone wall.

Just when she was about to give up, she thought "ah what the hell?" and just went for it, full on tickling your sides. Worst case scenario, she will get put on clean duty again.

Imagine her surprise when you started cackling up. Pure sincere laughter coming from your own lips, very contagious too. She found herself laughing along as she kept denying your attempts to push her away.

Now she has a secret weapon, one she plans to use at whichever chance she gets.

Gale

Very amused.

Ah, how the tables have turned. You know he did have a theory on your aversion to touch and the distance you keep from others, and this was the most pleasant of outcomes.

"Accidentally" brushes against your ticklish spots, claims absolute innocence each time. Batting his eyelashes as he swears ignorance.

He'd have prefered a more subtle method than Karlach's, but really, who is he to say? Maybe he could learn a thing or two from her, that sometimes the easiest way is the best answer to a problem.

Shadowheart

Teases you about it.

She threatens to do it in her "maybe I'm joking, maybe not" way. Does she ever do it? Who knows.

But mostly, she can relate to you. She gets teased about her fear of wolves a lot, so she understands if you want her to drop the topic.

Wyll

Defends you.

He was always the kid in the playground who'd chase bullies away, and while this is a more light-hearted teasing between friends things, he will still defend you from Karlach surprise attacks.

You're safe next to him, don't worry, he will never use your weakness against you no matter how tempting it is to get this tough ice cold person to fall into a pit of laughter.

Those aren't his thoughts, just the devil's on his shoulder.

Laezel

Doesn't get it.

What do you mean ticklish? What even is that.

Gith don't really get tickled. Their skin doesn't allow it much. She is a bit fascinated and curious about it. After all, it must be a great weapon if it reduced a formidable person like you into a jumpy offbalance prey.

Yes, she will keep it in mind if she needs to take you down one day. It is the excuse she allows herself on why she keeps staring at you whenever you laugh.

Minthara

While Wyll will attempt to defend you, Minthara doesn't even have to try.

If everyone in here wants to keep their throat unslited, they better not even think to place their grubby hands near you.

Says she did use it as a form of torture in interrogations before. It wasn't very effective since the target would end up incomprehensible.

Astarion

HA

HA HA HA

you poor thing.

His bullying puts Shadowheart's light hearted teasing to shame, he WILL fully throw digs at you every chance he gets.

Brings it up always, asks if you're at risk of falling prone to laughter because your shirt's fabric was too soft. Jokes about how feathers must be knives to you huh.

He isn't big on touching, so your physical body will remain safe. Your mentality, however, is a different case.

Halsin

He is too, very ticklish. How did he get people to stop bringing it up? Simple, turn into a gaint bear.

It's not so fun watching someone fall on you from laughter when it's a gaint cave bear with rows of sharp teeth.

But really, it's not so bad. And here he will help you practice your bear exaggerated laughter to make your teeth look sharper.

osemanverse allergies and intolerances

a list of headcanons and why they are 100% correct

BLISS

obviously, bliss is lactose intolerant. cause nobody loves dairy more than lactose intolerant people.

ROWAN

rowan is allergic to cat hair because as we’ve established he is allergic to going to therapy, so naturally he’d also be allergic to the ark’s therapy cat. doesn’t mean he shouldn’t have both. pill up, bitch.

LISTER

lister is severely allergic to shellfish. reasons being that in my experience, shellfish are a more elite, rich people meal, something you’d order at a fancy restaurant, i.e. something lister wouldn’t have had growing up poor. however, once he comes into money, he would try some for the first time and almost die, which shows that his current decadent lifestyle is very unhealthy.

JIMMY

jimmy is coeliac but he doesn’t know it yet. for one, he is constantly fatigued, which could in part be related to — and reinforced by — a severe iron deficiency. also, he is canonically shown to suffer from disordered eating, since he tends to skip and forget meals. this mirrors what many coeliacs tend to struggle with (and i assume people with other allergies too, i’m just speaking from my own experience); if your food options are greatly limited, it’s easy to skip or straight-up forget a meal.

GEORGIA

georgia is coeliac but she doesn’t know it yet because i’m tumblr user georgiaswarr and i say so.

SUNIL

sunil is allergic to nuts. that’s an asexual and trans joke.

TORI

tori has seasonal allergies because we all know her as a winter girlie, so tori in spring (no pun intended but pun greatly appreciated) doesn’t sit right with me. or her sinuses.

MICHAEL

michael has a loooooot of allergies; wheat, dairy, peanuts, oats, just to name a few. we all know he was very ostracised and unpopular at truham, something that would be reinforced by his ‘weird’ and ‘annoying’ dietary restrictions. after all, which horrible teenage boy is gonna like the kid that got peanuts banned on school grounds?

FRANCES

frances is allergic to certain fruits such as bananas or kiwis. however, she thinks that’s just how they’re supposed to taste, they’re supposed to hurt a bit. you know, just how she thought studying and university was just supposed to be painful without reflecting on why those expectations caused her this much suffering.

ELLE

elle is allergic to nuts. that’s another trans joke.

[tizzypizza]

MY BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS WITH A DISORDER design masterpost! i won’t be sharing their full story here just because it’s super convoluted and i’ve only really been telling it by word of mouth. a few fun things i wanted to note on and clarify because i’m a linguistics nerd:

- the name she chose for herself, saphia, is technically a pun on 3 things. sophia, the feminine greek name from christian gnosticism that means wisdom to allude both to her lack of wisdom in her naïveté and her excess of traumatic knowledge, the sapphirina copepod (which i based the tentacles off of) which is a kind of parasitic arthropod (rubs my hands together evilly), and sapphire, the gem. despite growing attached to it, she never gets to use this name. i picked a name of a greek origin because the prefix neo (as in neo agent 3) is also hellenic 🫶

- nana named themselves after a banana. i named them after the nanacara anomala, the goldeneye cichlid, and musa, the genus that bananas fall into.

i use nana to refer nana as they are currently. saph will be used interchangeably with neo to refer to them With That Other Hairstyle in general depending on context (neo as a title, saph as a name)

ramble about pronouns under the cut because. geez

ok pronouns are subject to change actually because i’ve been wracking my brain over this for the past day. were they made intentionally to be a female inktoling? would tartar have tried to model its batch of inktolings after the male and female inkfish in society? would they have been born genderless? i feel like they would want to trend towards being female with the name they picked and the fact that they idolized female inklings. but ALSO if anything nana would use she/her. BUT i’ve gotten VERY used to using they/them for them and as they stand they already use she/they. i feel like nana being they/them nonbinary makes just as much sense because they’re a blank slate.

if anything i might just give up and make them use they/them the full way through, but my reasoning generally was that she was modeled to be feminine and idolized female inklings and wanted to be like them -> does not give a flying fuck about pronouns but presents pretty femininely so rolls with the two pronoun sets they get called the most -> was so disillusioned by the trauma of finding out they Live In A Society of which they no longer wish to participate in so they’ve completely abandoned the notion of gender. gender just becomes an afterthought. which i think is pretty funny.

i love dumping a bunch of complicated lore on my character that only i can understand. i am excited to solidify their story (and their pronouns. god) soon 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

[bloodraven55]

i knew revue starlight would be peak anime when they made the tallest, strongest, most mentally ill character a mom friend who has banana-shaped hair, sleeps with a banana plushie, constantly bakes banana-themed snacks…. and then named her a pun that literally means “big banana”

[zombieefish]

hi guys guess what

– — —

Cheesy calls out his latest order, giving the customer a playful wink, before looking out into the cafe. It was busy today, but it wasn't like he couldn't handle the rush. He'd been working here so long, that the fast pacing was part of his daily life – so this was nothing new.

And let's be honest – he was a people person by far.

His gaze lingers, sticking his tongue out to show that he was thinking – soon handing out another order like it was nothing. He wasn't the only person behind the counter, as Soap was working alongside him.

He noticed the same blonde who was a regular, sitting by himself. He hadn't ordered anything and had just.. sat there. Was he waiting for a date, or..?

Cheesy would pause his thoughts.

Well, looking at his facial expression, he seemed pissed. Maybe he came here to blow off steam, or maybe he got stood up. He wasn't sure what felt like the right option and began to bite his bottom lip in response.

Soap would avert her gaze, poking her finger into the shorter male's head.

"What, see something you like?" She'd raise a brow, looking down at the other with a faint smile. She and Cheesy were alright – he was nice, but she hated his jokes sometimes.

"Hey, it's a gouda sign, isn't it?" He began to laugh, his chuckles filling the room. So full of life and joy, some would say. Soap would roll her eyes, walking off to take more orders from customers waiting.

Trophy had been sitting there for the past fifteen minutes. This is what he gets for even asking people to come out for a drink with him when he barely knows them.

It was an idiotic move. As if they'd show up.

He huffed, mumbling a few curse words under his breath, rolling his eyes. So what? Who cares if they didn't show up?

"Doesn't bother me." He'd complain to himself, tapping his fingers on the desk while staring at the clock. He would hear the sound of footsteps coming his way and then see that barista he saw every other day.

He felt his face go warm.

No, go back to the way you were!

"Did somebody order a banana blast smoothie, or am I making it up?" The voice would ring through his ears like the chorus of a song, and he furrowed his brow – acting like he didn't enjoy listening to his voice.

"You made it up, twerp." Trophy scoffed. But he felt more gratitude at this gesture than he'd ever felt in his life.

Cheesy would ignore the obvious comment. "It's grate to see you! Did someone leave you here? Man, you're cheddar off without them." He'd dramatically sigh, before beginning to laugh once more, sitting down in the seat opposite Trophy.

Trophy glances down at the cup, seeing somethhing written on the front. It was just another stupid pun, and he'd furrow his brows even further.

Why did he even like this stupid barista again?

"Heey, there's gonna be a party down the block tonight– you should totally come! It'll be awesome, and trust me, I know awesome." Cheesy winked, leaning on his hand for support.

"I'm not going to some.. comedy-club nerd fest. Do I look like a dork to you, cheeseface?" Trophy said through a frown, but his mind secretly wanted him to go to that so called nerd fest.

"Cheesy, stop talking to that guy, and get back behind the counter! This is a two person job!" Soap's voice would almost echo through the coffee shop, but it was loud enough in there to mask it. He turned his head, and then it hit him that he'd left Soap to serve customers by herself.

"Coming, I'm coming!" Cheesy would hop out of the wooden chair, dashing off behind the counter to go help Soap.

"Yeah, bye.." Trophy mumbled, glancing back at the counter for a brief minute before turning back to his drink.

Maybe he would go to that party.

Just to see what it was like, obviously.. not for that loser behind the clutter.

for the second time Mythrite shoves two unrelated fandoms together:

Aether (Ghost The Band) and Split (Regretevator) would be great friends

banana

Aether would probably make corny ahh jokes

Split’s dialogue is like 90% puns

left is Aether, right is Split

If its not a pedophilic/non-con ask, you can send it. edit: also incest. I have a small boundaries list in the pinned post.

Oh no, nothing like that. I’m not interested in any of that and wouldn’t send anything of that nature.

I just don’t want to be too mean or a downer.

On the lower end of the scale I would start by escalating with the pizza toppings (peas, mayonnaise, bananas) or mercilessly bedeviling Friend with puns.

But on the upper end of the scale it could be making up tragic angst scenarios that all of Friend’s money couldn’t save him from - like Sweetheart being terminally ill, in a coma, or Friend accidentally dooming them himself.

Or them taking a knock to the head, and despite living a long life they will never be the same person again or ever really remember who Friend is.

I am totally fine with tragic angst scenarios/ violent scenarios.

[redheartedtramp]

The Volume 10 we probably would have gotten (co-written by @jacscorner)

Penny: Ruby!

Ruby: PENNY?! Wait, you're back a THIRD time?!

Penny: That I am, Ruby! And I'm sure I'll be here as a permanent member of the-oop, there's a sword in my chest. Guess I'm dying again.

Ruby; But we didn't even get you for a whole episode!

Penny: X_X

Ruby: What the fuck?!

Cinder: lol, get wrecked, scrub.

Ruby: *starts charging her Silver Eyes:tm:*

Cinder: Oh shit, wait a minute!

Jaune: Ruby, are you okay?!

Ruby: *has an eyepatch* Well, I'm alive. That's something.

Jaune: This is all my fault. I shouldn't have left you alone to get milk.

Ruby: It's okay, Jaune. We're Huntsmen. This is just part of the-

Jaune: It's just like Pyrrha. And Penny. And the Paper People. I'm always letting people down when they need me most.

Ruby: Uh, Jaune?

Jaune: It seems like I can't do anything right. I feel so useless and weak, but I know that I have to keep going. Or else all of their sacrifices will have been in vain. And I-

Ruby: Hey, uh, can I have some of that angst?

Jaune: No! This is my big defining character moment for this Volume!

Ruby: It's MY eye that was gouged out!

Jaune: And if I was a better tactician, I would've known this would have happened and I would've been there to make sure this never would have happened.

Ruby: How long is this going to go on for?

Jaune: 10 episodes.

Ruby: ...This is a fucking 13 episode season. And we're on episode 2.

Jaune: Yeah, I've got a lot to get through.

Yang: Ugh, I'm sick of walking around this sand bowl. It's flat and immense and th eheat is intense. This fucking sucks. Why are we even here?!

Blake: I guess this is our...just deserts.

Yang: ...

Blake: :3

Yang: ...That wasn't funny.

Blake: But it was a pun!

Yang: Yeah? And it wasn't funny.

Blake: ...It's like I don't even know you anymore...

Jaune: I can't believe we're falling apart. All of our years of friendship and teamwork, now becoming undone in a single instant. It all feels so pointless to keep going-

Blake: What is he doing?

Yang: I think he's angsting.

Blake: In the middle of our relationship drama?!

Ruby: Welcome to my world. *is on her scroll*

Weiss: ...

Weiss: Oh wow, I'm not getting ruined in this Volume. Yes! Everything's coming up Weiss! Ice Queendom part duex, bitches!

Weiss: *slips on a banana peel* OH COME ON! Why are there banana peels in the desert?!

Yang: Ha! Classic Weiss~

Blake: #Failwife

Weiss: NO!

if you’re a vegan, I literally do not want to talk to you right now.

“ohhhh, we should’ve turned to plant-based stuff, now we’re all suffering with the egg shortage!” shut the fuck up.

listen, eggs are a vital staple of baking. They’re both a binder and a leavening agent: the proteins in the whites help with the rise, while the fats in yolks work with the whites to be a glue of sorts; angel food cake is as light and airy as it is because it’s risen from the whites. When you make a cake or cookies with 1 or 2 eggs, you end up with a finished result that rose well and manages to keep itself together. When you use one of the substitutes i shared earlier, you have to think around it. Baking soda and vinegar, and also arrowroot powder and water, will give the rise of proteins, but it’s lacking fats and moisture, so you have to use something like yogurt or buttermilk. Applesauce, bananas, avocado, and seeds with water will add a taste—depending on what the baked good is, it could be delicious or make you lose your lunch. It’s not something you can dick around with, either: you have to experiment. You have to be a chemist as well as a baker.

plus, one of the many things that helped me lose a ton of weight was adding scrambled eggs and Denver omelettes to my diet. They’re good proteins and good fats (in the case of the Denver omelette, you get vitamins from the bell pepper and onion embedded), they build your muscles, bone tissue, and also brain tissue, and they stick to your ribs so you don’t eat as much. really, I’m usually good to go until mid-afternoon after I have a couple of eggs with some toast. And from an evolutionary standpoint, we need those good proteins and fats (why do you think we have incisors?) it’s why I think if you go purely vegan, you have got to talk to a dietitian and a nutritionist about it first. And I feel most people who do go vegan—that is, almost everyone now—don’t. The small minority of vegans who do have been so their entire lives, like they just didn’t care for the taste of meat starting from when they began eating solid food. Or they went that way late in life with consultation at the helm and it worked wonders for them, like in the cases of Paul McCartney and Bill Clinton. ***edit: I just thought of this, referring back to animal proteins helping build brain tissue. I can’t be the only one who finds it weird that as veganism has gotten popular, intelligence seems to have fallen off a cliff.

But I’m not going to listen to an entire collective of people who blindly bought into a trend thinking they’re saving the world and doing their bodies good. It’s why I find the whole pro-Palestine movement a bunch of bullshit, other than the people who comprise the movement are antisemites and refuse to admit to it. It’s absolutely blind leading the blind and beckons the whole “if the cool kids jumped off a bridge, would you?”

my whole beef (no pun intended) with the whole vegan trend is not the lifestyle itself, it’s not the pervasiveness, it’s not even the taste—and in fact, I often have to make the disclaimer to say that vegan food is often the most delicious food I’ve had. I always feel healthier immediately after eating a vegan dish. I’m also not saying vegan recipes and substitutions don’t work: a lot of them, like aquafaba meringue and the baking soda-vinegar trick, are miracles of science.

It’s the shitty, snotty holier-than-thou, condescending attitude that way too many of them have, and Jesus Christ, they are seriously coming out of the woodwork right now in the face of the egg shortage. If you have to trick yourself into eating more healthily, that is, you resort to eating “plant-based meats” (which I personally don’t think are healthy, as they’re heavily processed plants shaped into a piece of meat like a steak or a handful of shrimp, just like how tofu did in the 90s), and constantly talk about how great it is (when you look pale, sick, and in some cases, 3D printed—am not going to explain that), you failed at the lifestyle and probably shouldn’t have done that.

I got 6 eggs left in my fridge and I’m protecting them like they’re gold in the basement of Fort Knox until I can find another dozen or 18 eggs. I’ll be making a cake tomorrow with the baking soda-vinegar combination with mayonnaise as that gives moisture and fat (as it’s got egg yolks, milk, and oil in it). Fingers crossed.

I already scoff at how the internet treats baking as is, like it’s an aesthetic or one big joke. If there’s any silver lining with the egg shortage, it’s that I hope it kills this mindset dead and shows just how the vegan movement is limp-wristed, pathetic, and all frosting with no cake underneath. Not everyone can afford plant-based steaks, Becky, or even metabolize it very well. And yeah, Nikki, not so funny now that you can’t get eggs and make your elaborate chocolate-cherry-pistachio-ginger-lemon cake with cherry-raspberry-pistachio Italian buttercream frosting or your elaborate chocolate-peanut butter-pumpkin spice cake and post your heavily edited “journey” where your makeup is perfect and you’re laughing most of the time online now can you?
