Ok, I have never participated in one of these before, in spite of being on tumblr for like a third of my life lol, so bare with me please! I have no doubt this is going to be long and rambley! When I saw your tags on this asks meme I was like ā€œWhat do you mean you donā€™t have a worthy fic output??? You have a million excellent fics out there?ā€ and was earnestly shocked when I went over to ao3 and saw that you only had 10 Magicians fics. Now let me be clear, I am using the word ā€œonlyā€ in the absolute LOOSEST sense, because as someone with a seemingly endless stack of wips constantly piling up in my docs who has never completed and posted anything longer than 8k, your treasure trove of masterpieces which include multiple fics in the double digit thousands is astoundingly impressive to me!!! But! I have re-read a few of your fics so many times that my brain has just a bunch of instances logged where I saw your name and went ā€œmental note: one of the best writers in the Magicians fandom, part of the ultra cool club, maybe I should hold off on going through everything theyā€™ve ever written right this very second so that I will have more from them to read on a rainy day.ā€ So basically, the sheer awesomeness of your writing totally tricked me into not realizing that I have actually only read like 4 or 5 of your fics, and they dominated my brain enough to seem like a whole fandomā€™s worth. So um, with that in mind! Iā€™ll actually ask the asks now lol
My favorite fic of yours
It is TIGHT, but I think I have to go with ā€œjust a touch of your love is enoughā€ because that one permanently rewrote my brain chemistry and pretty much single handedly made start like a bunch of wips revolving around the concept of Quentin and Eliot being two people who were pretty ok with being in poly and open relationships until they went STUPID over each other. Iā€™ve re-read itā€¦ maybe 5 times?Ā 
My favorite chapter in my favorite fic of yours
To my growing shame, I am realizing that I have been saving your multichap fics this whole time. I read parts 1 and 2 of your ā€˜evolveā€™ series tho, and while I struggle to differentiate between the amazingness of Quentinā€™s POV vs Mikeā€™s POV, I really really just loved the way part one closed out? I lovedddd the outsider POV of watching the Queliot sex matter more than any other sex either of them has ever had, and I really adored the gentle leaving of Mike ā€“ a little bitter but mostly just mature ā€“ telling Q not to let Eliot go.Ā 
The best character youā€™ve written for
You simply cannot make me choose between Eliot and Quentin here; you write both of them so distinctly and so well!!!
The best ship youā€™ve written for
As Iā€™m sure you can tell by now, this ask is extremely biased toward the Magicians. Iā€™m sure all your other fics are equally excellent, but I found you through the Magicians and you were one of the people instrumental in me fixating on the Magicians for the pastā€¦ idk. At least 2 years. So I GOTTA go Queliot.Ā 
A fic I havenā€™t read yet from you, but I want to
I feel like I have been saving ā€˜baby please come homeā€™ for a really really long time. I just know itā€™s gonna wreck me lol!Ā 
Something I remember vividly from reading one of your fics
Oh no, there are way too many options crashing in my brain for this one at once! Um! I think I have to chicken out and go a little more general: the way you write Quentin and Eliotā€™s interactions with each other just ticks all my boxes for them. The thing that always really sticks with me is how you do such a great job mixing and balancing them bantering with each other and genuinely being friends who like each other and spending time together, and the soul-crushingly intense romantic feelings they have for one another, the deeply painful, star bright pining! You are so good at blending those two components so seamlessly together, even in a single conversation, and I always when reading your fics am beset with that very specific feeling when every sentence you next read is EXACTLY the sentence you want to be reading, because the characters are so well drawn.Ā 
What made me the most emotional after reading
You have such a knack in your writing for showing just HOW MUCH Quentin and Eliot love each other. Iā€™m always blown away and enraptured by it. The moments that have made me the most emotional are the ones that highlight how almost tragic the intensity of that love is. Quentin in the very funny and very hot ā€˜they ainā€™t got a clue (canā€™t love me like you do)ā€™ thinking how mean it is for Eliot to be hot around him, and Eliotā€™s desperation in ā€œjust a touch of your love is enoughā€ to just make Quentin happy the whole time no matter what. You do an excellent excellent EXCELLENT job of depicting their love as borderline tortuous without it crossing the line over into something unhealthy, and it destroys me every time without fail.Ā 
What I like the most about your writing
In addition to your killer characterization, your excellent banter and comedy, your really truly perfect smut writing skills for both the hot and the tender (and weaving plot and character into the sex scenes in an impeccable way that always keeps my ace-spec ass LOCKED in) I just really love all the minutia of your like sentence structure and rhythm and all that good stuff. Your writing style pulls me right along in such a way that I often forget I am reading and not just injecting the story directly into my veins, but every time I emerge from the pools of my delight it is to notice something like ā€œooo, that was just some really solid prose right thereā€. I love your stuttering staccato period usage when you are writing from Quentinā€™s pov, the way you use your sentence structure, rhythm and grammar to emphasize the character.Ā 
A fic iā€™m excited for you updating/posting
Alright I categorically DO NOT want to make you feel pressured or bad about your unfinished works. Again, I have a million wips I havenā€™t started posting yet, and just in general I have lost interest in some of my works before and know how complicated that can feel, so I really donā€™t want to bring up any of your pieces without knowing if that is welcome or if you have lost interest in them. That said I gotta say the concept for ā€œwreck my plans (thatā€™s my man)ā€ TUGS at me, and I would love to read more of any Magicianā€™s works from you at any time! If you are still into the fandom and feel like adding onto any of your fics or posting new ones, just know that you have an avid reader in me! And, if you ever wanted a beta or cheerleader, well I admire you deeply, think you are just SO COOL, and desperately wanna be your friend so likeā€¦ please please please feel free to hit me up
A character/ship I didnā€™t enjoy/think about as much before you wrote about them
Hmm, I canā€™t say I didnā€™t enjoy or think about Margo and Quentinā€™s friendship before reading the way you write them, but I do think you added onto that love significantly. Same goes for the concept of Quentin and Eliot: accidental monogamists, a concept I think you like PERFECTED lol
Something I wish/hope you write
See #9 lol. I guessā€¦ I also gotta mention that every time I read ā€˜they ainā€™t got a clue (canā€™t love me like you do)ā€™ a part of me is dying for an Eliotā€™s pov of the whole thing. You just do such a good job of showing Eliotā€™s pov from INSIDE Quentinā€™s pov while Quentin remains oblivious, and it leaves me yearning haha
A fic of yours that iā€™ve re-read
ā€˜they ainā€™t got a clue (canā€™t love me like you do)ā€™, ā€œjust a touch of your love is enoughā€, ā€œi feel it in my body, know it in my mindā€, and ā€œif being him is who you are/ say it loud say your know you areā€ justā€¦ so many times.Ā 
If iā€™ve ever shared/talked about your fic to someone else
Hmm, not exactly? People donā€™t often ask me for recs lol, but if they did you would be at the top of my list!
A fic I didnā€™t expect to like so much
Letā€™s seeā€¦ maybeĀ  ā€œi feel it in my body, know it in my mindā€? I think when I first read that one I mixed the summary up with a different one I didnā€™t remember liking as much, but thought I should try re-reading anyway, and was DELIGHTED by what I got instead
A question I have about one of your fics
Hmmā€¦ This one is hard because your fics are all so fleshed out I donā€™t really leave them confused about anything. Are there any Magicianā€™s fics you feel like you might return to one day, and are there any you feel pretty positive you arenā€™t interested in anymore? Are there any still in the works that havenā€™t made it to ao3 yet? What was your favorite one to write?
Anyway, hope you are having a lovely day! Your fics mean the world to me! I wanna befriend you so awkwardly bad! Genuinely hit me up if you would like a beta or cheerleader! You are such a good writer it's insane! Thank you for all the wonderful work you have put out into the world!!!ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
hello!!! i confess i have been putting off answering this just because once i did it would obviously vanish from my inbox, and it is genuinely one of the most thoroughly, generously detailed thoughts on my fic i have ever received, in over a decade of this little hobby. i'm genuinely so floored you would take the time to respond to this based off a little tag comment i made (that i did indeed make bc i know some amazing magicians' fic authors who have such profilic, sprawling output). i'm gonna save this and look at it whenever i have doubts that anyone cares if i continue with my little magicians fics, which i do intend to do! i tend to chip away at them every few months, coo over how much i love quentin and eliot, and then move on, but i will put something substantial out there one day i promise.
so to answer the rest of your questions! ahem:
definitely 'show a little faith', or thanksgiving fic as it's known in my head, is the primary victim of my fic pecking. i have the outline etc in my head it's just getting it out there on paper, as it were.
similar, the q as margo's assistant AU, written for best girl @coldbam and i have to give credit: was her idea in the first place. she had said she wished someone wrote something like it, and for that reason it was more of a burst of something i wrote to have something to give nicole on her birthday that year given our tragically perpetual long-distance friendship, and the story beats were a bit more nebulous. BUT it was really fun and i had enough direction that i could go back to it (and many notes on ideas for scenes, many of them run by nicole on the phone to ensure they aligned with her ~vision).
there's a few longer WIPs/ongoing ideas that aren't on ao3 at all, but very much exist in fits and starts of writing and EXTENSIVE notes lmao, as is my way.
an AU where q is a TA/professor, and eliot and margo went to fillory prior to quentin enrolling and now he is an advisor who has to go back to take a class for reasons (they need a minor mending spell for some kind of kingdom reason; margo is king here). the idea came about just bc i'll be honest, professor/student pairings aren't totally my thing but i think eliot would get a lot of horny mileage out of it, especially bc q would be like "stop that's problematic!!!" (while also horny secretly). age gaps aren't also super my thing but especially eliot and q being only a year or so apart is very important to their dynamic to me also, hence q only being a TA or a very new professor at that (with maybe eliot and margo being in fillory for a few years at that point).
oh man, the fic lovingly titled 'fillory boy AU' that got so so much attention in my group chat with nicole above and beloved @kenshivshow. it's a similar concept to @hmgfanfic's INCREDIBLE fic, where q is a boy from fillory and eliot marries him instead of fen, but mine is a lot sillier and hornier and much less sprawling and impressive. i love it a lot and it has a lot of it written.
my favourite one to write is such a hard question. i am a corny loser who genuinely loves writing all fic bc otherwise i wouldn't do it. but:
just a touch of your love is enough was my first big bang so i gotta give that a shout out, plus the amazing art by @lu-does-eurovision!
they ain't got a clue (can't love me like you) gave me the chance to write a plotline from probably my favourite show, grey's anatomy, and i also managed to get it all out in a weekend bc i was so inspired. a thrilling feeling i will continue to chase forever!
again thank you so much, this message made my day when i got it and made my days over and over when i would go back to it. i'm really honoured and grateful!

spoilers
also keen to see how river/sid is done in the show! in the books it's kind of like "here's a pair who have a very vague flirtation" to boom undying love when she shows up again lol. saw someone post an interview with the showrunner on reddit where he was asked if they're going to do anything with river/louisa and people were VERY against that lol. while i don't love it there might be more of a basis for that in the books that river/sid (...until river/sid actually happens). they're like the only 2 who seem to genuinely enjoy each other's company (since we were robbed of an emma/louisa bestie era :( )and there's some throwaway lines like louisa wondering how she should feel about river choosing to stay with sid, and if she had a right to feel anything, etc. anyway i'm good with anything as long as olivia cooke comes back, i know she's booked and busy but can't imagine a recast working as well
My response under the cut to avoid spoiling from the books!
first of all...BIG SAME TO LOUISA/EMMA BESTIES ERA please. She was one of the best parts of the books, and they did that really cruel cold open in Joe Country that led to...well... šŸ„²šŸ„²šŸ„²
Cuz I really like when the Slow Horses have interactions among each other, but also outside of it. And I love that she is the more uhm "stereotypical" beauty type (at least as described in the books) but she is so much more than that.
Emma Flyte my love šŸ’–
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You officially have me even more excited for s4 now šŸ˜† (She and JK Coe are the ones I'm looking forward to most. I hate Claude but I am keen to see him because of James Callis haha)
Okay,,,, back to the topic at hand.... I also agree with the book hinting more of the River/Louisa bond, and truthfully, when I read those parts, I can't decide if I ship it romantically or platonically, or maybe both idk??? But I just like that they are both the "capable" and "level headed" and closest to normal in Slough House haha. I think this is especially highlighted in London Rules, when they attempted to have that "stable" "normalcy" by having River go with JK and Louisa with Shirley. I literally cannot get over the pairings in that book, actually, but maybe I should reserve that for a different post haha
Tumblr media
I absolutely hope we get Olivia back again! Considering s5 has been greenlit, and we get our first hint of her being alive in this book, there is a lot of ways they can setup her reappearance. I certainly think it will help boost our chances for a season 6 if we get a powerhouse like her return to the show šŸ˜…šŸ™ˆ
They also have a potential (if they really want to establish some kind of romance on the show) to have a better build up for those two. The only thing I gripe about it, it is they weren't able to sprinkle some of that in River for s2&3. I wish they did, but you're right anon, Liv is booked and busy, so I feel like it can go either way...
Tumblr media
All in all tho, I'm just really happy at how the show adapted the books. They don't necessarily have to keep each story detail beat by beat, but they really captured the essence of how "useless" they all are, but still somehow manage to be involved with, and even solve, the biggest MI5 cases, not even the Park can handle šŸ˜†
Tumblr media
Thank you so much for the fun question!! It makes me so happy to talk to someone who loves both book and show like I do šŸ„°šŸ’–

so, like, idk jack about the lore to kingdom hearts, but the idea of an mc whoā€™s from the game tingles my brain a lot so i gotta dump this out
iā€™m gonna keep this vague enough so that ppl can interpret the mc however they please (whether we be besties with the beach trio or some other group)
but this idea would fit perfectly since the two are a collab of sorts with disney, only difference is how they use it. kingdom hearts is about traveling to other worlds, which are the disney movies. with twisted wonderland, everything takes place in one world
so imagine a keyblade wielder mc that somehow winds up in twisted wonderland while going from world to world. something happens and they arenā€™t able to go back, maybe they lost a bit of their powers or the gummi ship they were on is somewhere between the worlds. whatever the case, theyā€™re stuck and now have to reside in the nrc because itā€™s just their luck that they land there
idk how much they can reveal because of that whole world order thing and they probs donā€™t trust anyone with outside information cause itā€™s a school of villains lmao
OH MY GOD AND THE MC WOULD KNOW THE TRUE NATURE OF THOSE GREAT SEVEN BECAUSE THEYVE WITNESSED THEM IRL LMFAO
they keep their mouth shut, tho, cause maybe itā€™s different for them. also, they do not want to be chased out for talking shit on them šŸ§ā€ā™€ļø
mc would feel so conflicted about the world and everyone there tho cause, like stated earlier, they got to witness the great sevenā€™s actions in other worlds and with how the dorm leaders are inspired by said seven theyā€™re just so cautious. but after riddleā€™s overblot they realize ā€œoh shit they have actual issuesā€ and everyone is actually kinda cool with enough time
the mc in this can still use their keyblade and some magic (if weā€™re going with the power loss route then iā€™m afraid your firagra has been reduced to just fire TwT) so they can chip in with the battles and show off how cool they are hehehe
OH OH AND EACH BATTLE THEY GET TO UPGRADE THEIR MAGIC AND SHIT!
mc getting thunder before azul fight: iā€™m going to shock the heart!
jade: ????
ooh itā€™d be so cool if every time the mc defeats an overblot they receive a new keyblade based on the dorm, just like how when we beat a world in kh we get a new keyblade based on it
oh god thereā€™s gonna be so many questions from their peers when they see the keyblade. ace is gonna mock the shit out of you for it cause itā€™s just an oversized key (he shuts up real quick when you bonk him with it tho). itā€™s just such a unique weapon and the fact that you can summon it from nowhere?? slay
kalim would want to hold the weapon so badly and gets sad when it instantly materializes back into your hand lmao
idk much about lilia, but i think heā€™d know something about the keyblade and your origins when he sees it. heā€™s old, he probably knows something. might have had tea with young xehanort before he got old
vil asks to see your whole collection so he can rank them from most to least beautiful
ya know those wayfinders that aqua/kairi made for her friends as a way to show how even if theyā€™re apart theyā€™ll never lose each other or whatever? itā€™d be so cute if the mc did something like that for their friends :> (currently sobbing at the idea of drawing their faces on it like kairi did for sora šŸ˜­)
oh, poor mc would get bullied by ace for saying the corniest shit (ā€œmy friends are my power! šŸ˜œšŸ¤Ŗā€) but over time he grows to love these words so much, starts to tear up frfr
your constant reminders of the importance of friendships and how the bonds you all formed are unbreakable really does start to grow on everyone. (cater stan here: he also starts believing in this too cuz i said so <3) (CATER USES THE WAYFINDER YOU MADE AS A PJONE CHARM DUDE)
OH AND DONT THINK I FORGOT ABOUT SILVER
man looks so much like riku, there just has to be some interaction with him and the mc about it
mc, seeing a sleeping silver: god fucking damn it not again. plz donā€™t have yellow eyes, plz donā€™t have yellow eyesā€”
aaaaaaaa ok itā€™s past 12 a.m for me, my brain is a mess and my eyes want to get some shut eye so iā€™m gonna end this here. also, canā€™t think of more stuff to add :((
if anyone has more things theyā€™d like to chip in, PLEASE do! i want more hcs and shit to add onto this idea of mine

March comes in like a lion, it's Portrayal of toxic & healthy relationship and how to compares rivamika + Ereh
Que the longest title everr šŸ˜ŒāœØ
So before I start on the actual analysis, I recently started watching March comes in like a lion instead of doing my assignments and I half way through season 2. For those of you who haven't watched it, it might be a spoilers so beware of that.
In this analysis I'll be comparing the similarities I found between Rei, Hina and Kyoko.
So watching any anime after being do emotionally attached to rivamika it's only natural that I compare them to the characters with even the tiniest bit similarities in their dynamic but Rei and hina's relationship jump in episode 4 of season 2 really caught me off guard and I was like omg?? Rivamika?? How do I make this about them šŸ˜©
Anyway so a little background on Rei's relationship with both girls Kyoko and Hina ( Hinata ). Firstly, i subconsciously placed Rei has Mikasa, kyoko has Eren and Hina as Levi, why? You will know on a minute. Rei is a depressed kid who has known only one way of life and that's through shogi games and after his parents death ( cough cough ) he was taken in by a old friend ( I think ) of his dad's who was also obsessed with shogi. Kyoko is the biological daughter of this man who has "adopted" Rei and later on Rei was came to know Hina and her sisters, they were super supportive of him from the start and having lost family members themselves they related to him on a personal level.
So you see why Eren and mikasa's dynamic matches with Rei and Kyoko and not only as "step siblings" it's also the fact that Rei became somewhat obsessed with her through the time he had spent over at their house, it's toxic and it's been showcased that way ever since kyoko was introduced into the series. Rei thought of her when he heard the word "love" and he even admitted to the fact that having her around is toxic and yet he can't push her away. He said he does not want to stop hearing her voice even tho she , herself is in love with a much older man who is married. Everytime she showed up to his bedroom uninvited and slept next to him my mind went "he is in love with her and their relationship is so toxic why does the author keep bringing her into his life?" Or "girl get the fuck away from him".
Without even thinking too much deep into their physical connection I already knew I would be able to related this dynamic to Eren and Mikasa. Although this series gives us much more depth into the main characters views since it's narrated from his own perspective, and the fact that he metaphorically compared his feelings of being lost and sadness helps me as an audience to understand what's happening much much easier than attack on titan. I personally feel like this kind of series are usually short ( idk how long this is) because it feels like the author knows exactly what he is going for, everything is set in stone.
Going back to Rei's ( mikasa's) relationship with kyoko ( Eren ) it's much much clear how toxic it had become for him in more than just one way. And the show isn't denying Rei of his feelings towards Kyoko and it's not even attempting to distant him from her and yet you just knew there had to be someone better right? That's when they introduced Hina and Kyoko in the same episode, meeting each other and a sense of invisible rivalry gushed over them, especially Hina. She is a happy go lucky girl and extremely sensitive to things to the point it kinda annoys me everytime she bursts out crying ( but hey you can't hate a genuinely good character ).
That's where things get interesting for me maybe because I am on that Levi X Mikasa agenda all the time but just like rivamika their relationship has been portrayed as platonic for the longest time in the seaosns. If I didn't go out of way to search up who Rei falls in love with and it didn't say hina's name I probably wouldn't be making this comparison right now because who wants to have their heart broken for the 2nd time in the same fucking month šŸ™„.
Anyway so in this one episode Hina comes home crying because of bullying issue at school and as she runs off into the dark streets Rei chases her and eventually catching up to her takes her hand and being able to relate to her problems, comparing his younger self to her present Rei reaches out his hand and God fucking damn it he says "you saved my life..I promise I'll stay with you" ofc I'm making this post now you know the real reason šŸ¤”.
The unseen build up that happen between them reminds me of rivamika, the Portrayal of healthy relationship is rivamika. Hina (in our case Levi ) to Rei is the voice of emotion, she speaks out the feelings that Rei has been surpassing all these years inside of him. Just like how we talked about Levi is the voice of reason, while Mikasa has the impulsive urge to act up. Just like how Levi became the perosn who reasonably always took mikasa's side, he gave her personal reasons to take Erens side everytime have an actual meaning towards the scouts / everyone , he then became someone Mikasa was able to object & voice out her opinion towards because she knew that he would response and guide her the right way and finally he became someone she was able to fully trust.
Much like Hina and Rei, when Hina cried out her heart and Rei couldn't help but go back to his past self and imagine Hina coming to him and giving him a hand, being his saviour. It's much like how Levi saw his past self in Mikasa present ( S1 ), Levi gave Mikasa the hand she needed when she didn't know she needed.
Hina despite being much younger than him, was able to make him realise that he too was shutting out his emotions and was able to let himself be free through Hina when she cried, expressing her frustrations and very human like emotions. In the forest of the giant trees when Mikasa and Levi saved Eren for the first time he told her " we got your precious friend, didn't we?" A slight wake up call he had given her for the very first time, an attack on Mikasa's ego and evoking a different emotions within her. Like telling her it's not only about Eren and getting revenge, risking your life so easily, Levi had lost his entire squad in order to protect Eren so now that he is safe they better leave now.
So the question is did Levi and Mikasa save each other?
What can I say that I haven't said already in here about these two?
"you saved my life" Rei says to Hina as he reached out her hand and the beauty of that scene was the fact that it was delicate and soft despite it not being anything romantic. Remind me of that panel of Mikasa touching Levi's shoulder. How ironic is the fact that I'm comparing Hina, a openly emotional character to Levi who is said to be the most emotional inside?
Levi physically saved Mikasa a lot of the time however emotionally Levi saved Mikasa from being selfish and from herself. What if I said and ignoring 139, that Levi was one of of the biggest reasons Mikasa took the initiative and decapitated Eren that day?
Wait why does it feel like I already said it before lol
Through Levi, Mikasa learnt to trust more, learnt that even though they gave difference not only in height, age and in how they treat Eren ( Levi with force and Mikasa with care ), Mikasa still came in terms with Levi and relied on him, shared her burden with him. I think that's the biggest character twist Mikasa had, the fact that she was ready to draw sword at anyone who treated Eren wrong and everyone was scared of her and then came the grumpy shorty who beat her beloved brother right in front of her but eventually he became the biggest form of support she had in the end. I just can not help but laugh at all the unseen development this ship has had and all the implication of Futher interaction after season 3 between them, it's really obvious they had something going on because imagine you don't talk to someone for like 3 years and suddenly when you engage in battle against , paired up with them suddenly you become the strongest duo known to humanity. +?)!#)# make it make sense.
Sooo now you see the that having toxic relationship with a partner is only natural and inevitable but growing from that, opening your eyes to those who actually care there for you is rather healthy. So moral of the story is guys make sure stick with those who tells you to stay with them, the end.
Omg guys this turned out so much longer than I intended, anyway hopefully y'all liked it. I know it's not the strongest comparison or analysis but I feel like I'm running out of words for what I want to say about rivamika it feels like I'm recycling my sentences from previous analysis over and over again because āœØ lack of content āœØ and my inability to think of something new.
Please ignore all my spelling mistakes I have decided to embrace my mistakes instead of fixing them simply because I'm too lazy šŸ˜‰

The peculiar case of woosanhwa.
DISCLAIMER: i am not a professional at reading body language, just putting out my observations.
now, iā€™ve been thinking about their relationship for a while now and i think most people would agree with me when i say these three are particularly close to one another. more so than the other members, iā€™ve noticed in vlives that these three communicate the most with each other.
thereā€™s no doubt in my mind that they have a deep and genuine bond. but do i think the relationship between these three go deeper than brotherly love.Ā 
no, i donā€™t think so, mostly because as iā€™ve said before. i donā€™t think seonghwa is bisexual or gay. this is just something iā€™ve determined from seeing his interactions with woosan. now if you think seongjoong is entirely different and proves that he is thatā€™s fine. but iā€™ve never watched a compilation of seongjoong. this is just what iā€™ve determined from watching woosanhwa. this says a lot because ateez is probably one of the few groups that give me massive gay/bi vibes.Ā Ā 
letā€™s talk about his relationship with woosan.
letā€™s start with woo.
now, iā€™ve said it before, but iā€™m so sure that woo is or was physically attracted to seonghwa, but it is obvious seonghwa doesnā€™t have mutual feelings. anytime woo does something like attempt to kiss seonghwaĀ heā€™s just likeĀ ā€œplease donā€™tā€ at times it looks like heā€™s barely putting up a fight, but i donā€™t think he does this because he secretly enjoys it. i just think seonghwa is a man with a lot of patience and i mean a lot. like sheesh. any man would probably punch tf out of someone crushing his balls but seonghwa sat there and took it(wooā€™s such a brat, lol).Ā 
Tumblr media
poor baby, anyway, itā€™s obvious that woo is attracted to him, because as heā€™s mentioned before he likes to see his reaction when heā€™s angry. he does this with san a lot too which is what probably starts the sometimes petty arguments. lol.Ā 
here some points to reference.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this vlive, seonghwaā€™s birthday, now itā€™s important to note that woo does not often appear on vlives. even though i wished he would, he just doesnā€™t unless itā€™s a group vlive he rarely goes live and iā€™m bitter about it as a woo stan. note that san was on the vlive too, but came after woo left and stayed. now, we could hear san in the background during the vlive. but many of us didnā€™t know he stayed in the background watching seonghwa.
Tumblr media
we could only trust anewz to release such confidential information.
now, before i make the point about woohwa, i just want to highlight how close these three are. even though the members often watch each others vlives and congratulate each others birthday and even call. woosan actually came to seonghwaā€™s bday vlive and woo stated that he wanted to do the vlive with seonghwa which is very telling.Ā ā€˜cause he rarely does vlives and san, seonghwa and yeosang are probably the members he feels closest too. i would add hongjoong in there too, but i feel like people wouldnā€™t understand my reasoning why. iā€™m considering doing an analysis for woojoong.Ā ā€˜cause i do feel that they are close, but underrated. but anyway. my point is during this vlive woo was super excited and was literally all over seonghwa constantly telling him that heā€™s so, ā€œhandsomeā€. his hands were roaming all over his neck, shoulders and chest. which i do think woo is attracted to because iā€™ve caught him trying to look in members shirts multiple times. lmfao. heā€™s just a bit more curious then i think is normal.Ā 
letā€™s talk about other small moments where woo is much more invested in seonghwa than the others.
Tumblr media
this recent moment, where itā€™s as if yunho doesnā€™t exist, it was a bit awkward for me to watch because it was clear where wooā€™s interest was. lol.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this recent moment where he literally abandoned yeosang once seognhwa came in(can i just note there was also a moment here where woo tried to look in yeosangā€™s shirt and seonghwa was like wtf, stop and woo got embarrassed. lol like i said before i am confident that woo is bi). now, continuing on because i donā€™t have the captions iā€™m gonna give a rough translation of what was said. you can always go to the vlives and search for the moment yourself, but i do think the subs are still a bit janky donā€™t know if theyā€™ve been fixed. but as you can see woo started getting closer to seonghwa. closer than he was comfortable with and you can tell by his body language that he is tense and nervous. if this was anyone else or even san, i honestly donā€™t think seonghwa would have reacted this way. because this type of skinship is normal but since this is woo. seonghwaā€™s body is instinctively reacting to something that he is expecting to happen. in this case, iā€™m more than sure heā€™s expecting woo to probably kiss him on the cheek. because he says, ā€œi get nervous when you come closeā€. i mean.....
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
so yes, he is probably nervous, now note, woo seems to only do this with seonghwa,Ā ā€˜cause as iā€™ve said before heā€™s physically attracted to him. now someone he never does this to is yeosang, but youā€™re probably like,Ā ā€œbecause theyā€™re friends and woo prob isnā€™t attracted to him and yeosang doesnā€™t like skinship. which i all agree with, but i donā€™t think seonghwa enjoys it either and i think the difference is that he knows seonghwa probably wonā€™t do anything because he has the patience of a saint.Ā 
now this only worries me a TEENY bit because i know that woo can be rough and manhandle people at times. and most of those times he tried to kiss seonghwa it was probably not out of consent. and if you see my woohwa moments where woo attempts to steal a kiss without seonghwaā€™s permission. itā€™s clear to see that he is uncomfortable. and i think woo continues to do this because seonghwa is too patient to tell him otherwise. but i DO trust that if seonghwa seriously doesnā€™t like it and tells him to stop he would. iā€™m sure things are fine tho because they still seem super close. but i do think seonghwa may be too nice sometimes.Ā 
i mean he was treating him like a dog and telling him to sit for the ice cream in that same vlive. lmfao.Ā 
Tumblr media
woo plays too much, but is super soft and kind. :) but donā€™t take it from me.
Tumblr media
anyway, woohwa is a ship thatā€™s very close and sweet, but itā€™s obvious that woo is much more infatuated with seonghwa than seonghwa is infatuated with woo. but woo said in the xmas vlive that he knows seonghwa well which is why seonghwaā€™sĀ ā€œinto himā€.Ā Ā 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
however, seonghwa responded and said this was not the case when woo left. seonghwa said that wooā€™s a tsundere and one second heā€™s nice and the the next heā€™s like,Ā ā€œdonā€™t touch me.ā€ lmfao. now that i know this i wonder if woo does this with san as well. where he looks like he canā€™t be bothered with then the next second heā€™s probably clinging to san in bed. which probably confuses san. it reminds me of that time where woo said he didnā€™t wanna look at san during an idol radio episode and san was dumbfounded. lmfao.
so, as iā€™ve mentioned before i believed these two(woosan) are genuinely in a relationship or are somewhat intimate with each other. if this is the case, why does woo do this? why does he shamelessly flirt with seonghwa lit in his face? lolĀ 
now i think most of us probably assumed that woo was someone who doesnā€™t like to commit or doesnā€™t like to settle. now a lot of people think this even without knowing his sign. so this was only confirmed for me when i realized that he was a sagittarius. i donā€™t really rely on horoscopes because theyā€™re not always accurate. but i do feel like this may be something woo has in common with those who are sags.Ā Ā 
as a sag this means itā€™s easy for him to gain interest in someone and we can obviously see that when woo is interested, weā€™ll know. he has mentioned he doesnā€™t like to play hard to get. and we also know sags are blunt and honest to a fault and if you watch the old woosan vlives you can tell that it sometimes hurts sanā€™s feelings because he is sensitive and an introvert completely opposite of woo. sags are also known for being slow to commit or preferring to keep things casual. but are very loyal when they do commit.Ā 
while san is a cancer and they are the exact opposites. cancers are incredibly sensitive and caring. theyā€™re also quick to commit and are slow to bail when things get tough.
whatā€™s important to note about these two is that their signs are very VERY incompatible.
so like iā€™ve said itā€™s best to not rely on horoscopes because we know woosan are bestfriends and soulmates. but we can also see their very obvious differences in personalities when theyā€™re together and we can tell san often gets hurt by wooā€™s bluntness. but i wanna highlight a moment during an idol radio podcast.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
now this is a moment that happened during the radio podcast at 41:50 on schmoosubs channelĀ on yt. during this whole podcast san was clearly upset with woo and woo was attempting to win san back. something you should know about sags is they love to chase. so iā€™m guessing woo did something to upset san, but woo says in the video that heā€™s upset with san. lol. but it was this moment in particular that caught my eye because it came out of nowhere.Ā 
there was no song being recommended or anything from what i could hear, and suddenly yunho said that and san was like yeah,Ā ā€œi was just a toyā€. iā€™m wondering if he was referring to woo treating him as such which is why he was rejecting him. now it would seem harsh especially if they were referencing block bā€™s song which is very plausible seeing as the podcast was for recommending songs for people. and idk if it would be a stretch to say yunho was recommending it for san to woo. but interpret it as you want. here are some lyrics.
Tumblr media
now why is all this important well, this is just to highlight why i feel woo may flirt with the other members shamelessly and also why they may also fight and seem distant for a period of time and san stops returning wooā€™s advances. i think it had a lot to do with woo not wanting serious at the moment.
if you watch woosanā€™s interactions before they were definitely not as close then as they are now. which is a big reason you canā€™t convince me itā€™s fanservice, because everything changed before debut they were obviously friends, but after debut you can tell they became more intimate physically and mentally. even the way they look at each other has changed.
another reason i donā€™t think itā€™s forced fanservice is because people often forget that seongjoong is also a pretty big ship. just look at the views on yt for seongjoong moments and the number of fanfics(many woosan fics turn out to be seongjoon fics and iā€™m salty af. lol). theyā€™re much bigger because these are two members that are both popular in ateez. but they donā€™t really bother with fanservice much. which leads me to believe that even though itā€™s probably advised KQ doesnā€™t force them to sell itā€™s realness despite seongjoong being just as high in demand as woosan.
now, letā€™s get back on topic and discuss sanhwa(ikr, itā€™s finally time btch).Ā 
Tumblr media
sanhwa is definitely one of the softest underrated ships. like theyā€™re obviously very comfortable with each other and are comfortable with skinship enough that they arenā€™t afraid to cuddle or slap each others butt on camera. their relationship is very domestic and sweet.Ā 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this moment happened during hwaā€™s birthday vlive where he asks san if he has anything to say to atiny and sanā€™s likeĀ ā€œi love you atinyā€ and hwaā€™s like what about me do you love me more than atiny pick one. lol. san then hung up. can i say heā€™s so brutal to my boi. but the point is they were very open about their conversation because they have nothing to hide because they love each other and are really trustworthy friends/brothers. i would like to note that san also appeared in hwaā€™s vlive two other times. this alone proves to me once again that the bond that these three share is particularly close and special.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
throughout this vlive they were so touchy and sweet with one another. san is a baby that needs to touch for comfort. and as you can see theyā€™re both comfortable and as i mentioned before. seonghwa doesnā€™t really care i mean he let san hug him for almost a full two minutes lol. he only gets annoyed around san after excessive physical affection but if it were woo hugging him like that heā€™d probably feel more so nervous than annoyed. lol.
Tumblr media
san is practically a baby around seonghwa. theyā€™re so comfortable around each other and itā€™s obvious that san letā€™s his guard down around seonghwa. now, seonghwa is an aries and to me heā€™s literally nothing like one. lol. heā€™s probably the most patient person iā€™ve ever come to know. and to me i think he treats the members similarly and is truly like a parent. although woo does make that hard for him. >_>
now letā€™s talk about woosanhwa as a whole and woosan, being like no, itā€™s woosan not woosanhwa.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i canā€™t believe san bro-zoned seonghwa like that. lmfao. but the fact that seonghwa refers to san himself as woosan is utterly adorable and it really shows the bond between woosan is strong. like theyā€™ve mentioned before their each others halves. and quite honestly i donā€™t know why woosan is so opposed to people joining, but i do feel like they genuinely dislike being disturbed when theyā€™re alone together. but seonghwa is consistent in wanting to join them. i can honestly say i think he just wants to hang out and doesnā€™t have an ulterior motive.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
sanā€™s basically like i donā€™t want you to join us, why does he always wants to join us? but then wooā€™s like heā€™s really different off camera, yET HEā€™S STILL SO HANDSOME. just shamelessly flirting with seonghwa. they obviously enjoy teasing him. iā€™m gonna be honest and say i think san only started teasing him because woo does it. the thing about woosan that is different from all ships is that they literally see each other as one. like a married couple and they make the effort to be alike.Ā when they talk itā€™s almost as if theyā€™re reading each others minds and voicing each others thoughts. then you just have san going sure you can join, but your name is separated from ours.Ā 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
seonghwaā€™s still on a mission to join and theyā€™re both just making fun of him and seonghwaā€™s like what about woosanhwa. note that seonghwa wanted to join these two during their vlive in the middle but they were still firm in their decision like nah fam, you can do it by yourself tho. which he did end up doing alone. like they really donā€™t want this manā€™s to join. he canā€™t even sit and eat with them. x)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
but he finally succeeded in joining them and they finally became woosanhwa. but even though this may seem like a fanservice gimmick i think it just became a joke because woosan wouldnā€™t let anyone join them. but this does not only apply to seonghwa. it applies to everyone letā€™s take this moment from last year as an example.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this was a vlive from a while back that started off with woosan, but yunho wanted to join in on the fun. even before allowing him to join they were both, well mostly san was irritated every time yunho called them. you can look at my analysis of this woosan vlive and see how irritated san was every time yunho called. lmfao. to me it wasnā€™t that serious but it made me realize that woosan probably prefers doing things alone and being alone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
these are just more proofs that they hang outside together off camera a lot. if they were concerned about shipping they wouldnā€™t be this open. nor do i think they would hang out as often as they do. woo is just talking about his day that mostly involved san and he more then likely didnā€™t realize how often he was mentioning him. especially in comparison to everyone else and he probably mentioned seonghwa once.Ā 
Tumblr media
i wanted to add this because to me this alone speaks volumes. these are the three things that make woo smile. i mean san is literally part of ateez, and heā€™s best friends with yeosang and san. but he put san there and iā€™m sure itā€™s because san makes him smile for different reasons. i mean think about it he could have even replaced san with family. this was really powerful.
Tumblr media
san is saying they proved it, in my opinion iā€™m pretty sure he was referring to how well they know each other. the fact that san said they make efforts to to close their differences also speaks volumes. like they donā€™t even have to like the same things but they make the effort to and this makes them proud. saying itā€™s fanservice would be so disingenuous and unfair to them. especially when they are clearly close and are proud and open about their relationship. and just because they are open doesnā€™t mean itā€™s not real. woosan is a ship that canā€™t be compared to the others because theyā€™re entirely different than any other ship.Ā 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i donā€™t know why, but hongjoong was being real petty referring to woosan as,Ā ā€œamicus somethingā€ like he really had me dying laughing. i think he was lowkey jelly. but san was like iā€™m gonna have to correct you, itā€™s,Ā ā€œamicus ad arasā€ and hongjoong was still clowning and was like ā€œthis amicus something teamā€ lmfao. and san AND woo was likeĀ ā€œamicus ad aras!ā€Ā 
like woosanhwa is a beautiful ship, but listen to woosan,Ā ā€œitā€™s amicus ad arasā€.

Answering this publicly cause it seemed like you wanted me to, thank you so much! Both for following me again and for being worried it might have happened to someone else!! I hope not ;;;;Ā 
Anon said: your iidayama fusion... love him so much
Ohhhhhhhhhhh Iā€™m glad, I loved that one concept probably the most out of every other one!
Anon said: Ahhh i love your art style so much!!!! Thank for all the good Kiribaku stuff my dude!!!ā¤ā¤
No anon thank you!!!!!Ā šŸ’•šŸ’•šŸ’•
Anon said: So, Iā€™m just wondering what makes u ship Seromina? My friend only said that their shipped because there the only last two in the Bakusquad, ( Kiribaku, Kamijirou )
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH oh, okay! Actually I have no clue if thatā€™s why other people ship them? It might be? It might also be that them being the last two out of the group made people consider the ship and then start actually enjoy the possibility of it? I donā€™t know! Personally SeroMina is one of the ships Iā€™ve been shipping the longest (Iā€™ve been on it since before starting to like kamijirou, actually!)Ā and one of the only three ships in bnha I have a seriously hard time breaking up and shipping around (the other two being ochadeku and bakushima) so Iā€™m reasonably sure my ending up liking them was an independent thought process and it wasnā€™t guided by shipping other things? But itā€™s been so long that I canā€™t really say why I first considered them as a possibility, so who knows, really! Might be, might not!
The reason why Iā€™m still shipping it right now is that I find them highly compatible, that their interactions in canon give me life, and that I just find them extremely visually pleasing - I think I have a very specific way of shipping them? In my head? I have this storyĀ about them, or... an ideal way in which I like to think they might happen, and it makes me very happy and makes me feel very warm and itā€™s just, itā€™s ideal? To me, the possibility of Sero and Ashido ending up together would make for an ideal lovestory and relationship, it just gives me the fuzziesĀ haha itā€™s like, you know, theyā€™re very very good friends, and to me thatā€™s the most solid base to start a relationship, and theyā€™re comfortable with one another which is wonderful. Theyā€™re the same type of silly and extra and rowdy which is fun,Ā and Iā€™m very very stuck on the fact that when Ashido was talking about her future agency she just assumed Sero would be in it - she wants him in her future??? how cute is that!! he wasnā€™t the only one she mentioned so Iā€™m not saying itā€™sĀ ā€œcanon proofā€ or whatever, I just like that out of the squad the only one she assumed would be with her in the future is Sero, itā€™s soft I like it. And I like how sheā€™s by canon called bright and shining and eyecatching and Seroā€™s by canon called plain, I like the possibilities in that, the feelings in that, but especially I like the idea of bright shining wonderful Ashido with her love for everything romantic and always in search of her own shining love story one day looking at Sero and realizing that she doesnā€™t want anyone else!! because he makes her laugh! he makes her happy! he makes her feel like sheā€™s perfect the way she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with her loud laugh and childish sense of humor and overly-bright fashion sense, and I love love love the idea of Sero thinking her completely out of his league and never thinking anything could ever happen between them but like, not in a sad pining sort of way? more in aĀ ā€œsheā€™s ideal and I know sheā€™s out of my league so Iā€™m not putting any thought in it but she idealā€, only for Ashido!!! to confess!!!!!!! To HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just thinking about it makes me feel all warm inside Iā€™m talking too much okay I know I just love them So Much Hori please donā€™t pair them off with someone else Iā€™ll cry a river

Anon said: Not a question but I NEED you to know that your bokuroteru tattoo au comic gave me the biggest motivation to start writing again (albeit for bnha, instead of haikyuu) because it's just sooo good!! Their interaction, the way bokuro seem confident and comfortable even tho they're actually lame dorks who blush a lot, the way teru confessed to the two guys, their kisses //// just gahhh everything about your comic gave me the dokis.

Iā€™m so so so happy to hear that oh my god!!! (TTATT) the fact that that comic can still make people feel stuff means so much to me holy heck Iā€™m gonna cry ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;Ā šŸ’•šŸ’•šŸ’•šŸ’•šŸ’•šŸ’•

Tumblr media
ā€”šˆšš“š‘šŽšƒš”š‚š“šˆšŽšā€”
Ahhhh! Iā€™m so amazed that I got to 500 followers despite the fact that I barely?? Post?? And sometimes I just talk about random shit but even then, I still appreciate all of you guys so much? I have a few options on what I have to celebrate and I am so excited heheh. But before I get started I just,,, Have a few more things Iā€™d like to talk about (cus I like to talk LOL). Feel free to skip though!!Ā 
content continued below the cut!! (warning; introduction is long because I just have a lot of thoughts I want to share LOL. seriously, feel free to just skip)Ā 
I know that I only really started posting Haikyuu!! around my 300 mark, and I feel like the people after my 300 mark are the oneā€™s who are active because of how much I come onto tumblr and then disappear.Ā 
If you donā€™t know this, Iā€™ve actually been writing on Tumblr since 2015/2016. Iā€™ve just changed blogs so many times that itā€™s like, hey, this is my new blog. Or like, I would write for a few months, disappear, come back but then everyone who followed me was dead so I was like eh Iā€™ll just start again or whatever. And I think this makes me very very soft because out of all the communities Iā€™ve been in, Iā€™ve truly felt more welcome/at home even?? With everyone in Haikyuu? Like yeah thereā€™s shit that goes down every few days or whatever but itā€™s always so fun to see people interact with each other and though I was hesitant at first (because before this the only writer Iā€™ve ever interacted with was Scout for marvel oop) Iā€™m really glad I reached out to a few of yā€™all and vice versa.Ā 
But despite that, Marvel will always hold a place in my heart and to everyone who followed me from my Marvel days, thank you for supporting me way back when. And even to my Narnia days (AHAHAHA). I donā€™t think I wouldā€™ve continued writing on tumblr without your guysā€™ support. I know that younger me appreciated you all for reading those old works (even if I hate my old writing now).Ā 
And to everyone now, thank you for sending in asks or commenting on my works. I actually think I wouldā€™ve disappeared by this time from this blog if you guys didnā€™t interact. Iā€™m not saying Iā€™m writing for the follows or the notes, if that makes sense. But itā€™s more like, I feel less of a robot that people expect to churn out works. Idk, it makes me feel like a person? And it just gives me a lot more serotnin than you might think!!Ā 
One last thing though, itā€™s not me saying I expect you guys to always read my work and always comment. Itā€™s more so, Iā€™d actually rather have you guys comment or whatever because you wantĀ to and you want to read it. Like on one hand yes it does make me feel appreciated but I also donā€™t want you to feel obligated or feel guilty of you donā€™t read my things. No matter what, I will always be writing. It definitely does feel nice tho LOLĀ 
I promise in the future, if I ever do intros they wonā€™t be this long lol.Ā 
Phew. Anyway.Ā 
For this celebration, this is only for Haikyuu!!

1. as far as im concerned Kagami never left at the end of last game, that was an extended dream sequence... 2. i also totally agree with you that Kagami is prolly vers, if anything, and it was also MY PET PEEVE when people pinholed him into being a forever bottom at the peak of knb hype. 3. you keep teasing your long list of ships for Aomine PLEASE do him for the character thing lol. So far all your opinions are sending me into a realm of GOOD VALID VIBES
Omg thank you!! (I agree end of Last Game is not canonā€¦ or if it is he came right back the next year or smth I refuse to accept he just left forever. And Iā€™m really glad to see the problem of Ukeā„¢ Kagami seems to be in decline these daysā€¦ fewer people are writing for knb in general, but those that are seem to have an idea what a real gay relationship is or at least make him a fucking person and not a walking stereotype, and thatā€™s encouraging to see).Ā 
Also thanks so much for sending Aomine! ā€¦Strap in for this character essay tho Iā€™ve been known to never shut up about this boy once you get me started.
How I feel about this character
I honestlyā€¦ canā€™t even explain it anymore or even try to justify it but Aomine has had a bigger impact on me than, I think, any other character Iā€™ve seen to date. I donā€™t even know what it is, I do relate to him (and project on him *cough*) but like, there are other characters out there that I have more in common with, and I like his whole arc and aesthetic but itā€™s nothing revolutionary, soā€¦ your guess is as good as mine.Ā 
Whatever it is, Iā€™ve been obsessed with this guy for over half a decade, and lately even as the KNB fandom falls into decline, my feelings are not theyā€™re just getting stronger. His development over the course of the series is one of the most satisfying things Iā€™ve ever seen, (that one bit at the end of the Touou/Seirin game withĀ ā€œI want to practiceā€ and his later conversation with Kuroko hit me in the fucking chest every time), and I love how even though heā€™s portrayed as cold, uncaring and rude, itā€™s still understood (at least by anyone with some nuance) that thatā€™s not what heā€™s supposed to be like, and underneath the distant, kind of dickish front, heā€™s hurting a lot. Iā€™ve talked about the degree to which he cares about people before too, but I still have to give a mention to the ferociousĀ level of protectiveness this guy has for his friends. I could go on about him for ages, tbh, and maybe someday I will write a for-real structured essay to try to get it out there, but the bottom line is I love this character, I have for a long time, and likely will continue to do so long into the future.
All the people I ship romantically with this character
Okay here we goā€¦ I ship this guy extremely liberally, even with people heā€™s never interacted with (hell you could mention any random character and I could probably see my way clear to shipping them with him somehow, Iā€™ll still try to explain my logic if I can). Prepare yourself.
Kagami (of course, AoKaga is the OTP and definitely the one Iā€™ve devoted the most time to, theyā€™re just the best together Iā€™ll never get tired of seeing them figure their shit out over and over)
Kuroko (I may be AoKaga on main, but Iā€™m still such a sucker for the tragic romance between these two, and sometimes it just hits me over the head like a sledgehammer how much I love their relationship. Iā€™ve also got a lot of feelings for AoKagaKuro, theyā€™re such a perfect trio and I need to invest more of my time in the OT3)
Kise (I was a bit late to the game on AoKise, but I definitely see it now. I love their dynamic and how imperfect their relationship would probably be, the complexity of it. sign me up)
Momoi (I donā€™t see a lot of AoMomo love anymore, but Iā€™ve still got a soft spot for it, childhood friends are my weakness okay)
Midorima (theyā€™re so different but thatā€™s what makes it interesting, and I love the idea of neither of them knowing how to show/tell the other their feelings and being awkward stubborn shits together)
Murasakibara (they almost never interact but I just think theyā€™d have such a soft cuddly relationship and be really chill togetherā€¦ lazy Sunday mornings sleeping in and hanging all over each other that kinda thing)
Akashi (kinda same as Akashi/Kagami, I think the difference between polished upper-class Akashi and scrappy city boy Aomine would be hella interestingā€¦ though Iā€™ve also got some angst ideas for them as a couple, after how things went down at Teikoā€¦ abandonment and whatnot)
Imayoshi (I got pulled into this ship HARD by Lysapadinā€™s A Firm Hand series and now itā€™s no longer a guilty pleasure ship and is actually something Iā€™ll talk about in the open, justā€¦ the power dynamic fuck me up)
Sakurai (I fuckin love the idea of an anxious Sakurai crushing hard on Aomine and not knowing how to tell him but when he finally plucks up the courage and prepares himself for imminent death Aomineā€™s actually pretty chill about itā€¦ plus theyā€™d be adorable together tbh)
Wakamastu (you know itā€™s gotta be enemies to lovers. not just bc Iā€™m intrigued by the love/hate relationship itself but if you look past the attitude issues these two would actually probably have a lot in common. also Iā€™m really interested in how their dynamic might change with Wakamatsu being captain and all)
Susa (idk but thereā€™s one throwaway line in season 3 where Imayoshi says about Aomine ā€œactually maybe he likes youā€ and thatā€™s enough for me. bring me the rarest rarepair my body is ready)
Kasamatsu (it wasnā€™t supposed to be SERIOUS but they got me. That moment in the Touou/Kaijo game where Aomine helps him up andĀ ā€œyouā€™ve really done it now, senpaiā€ is legit, plus these two would be such a good-looking couple, honestly.)
Mibuchi (give me the pretty boys. I have no excuse for this except maybe their interactions in my own damn fic again)
Nebuya (sometimes shipping can be as simple as hey I want them to bang right. also theyā€™re both humongous dorks under their respective rough exteriors and I love them)
Moriyama (they bond over liking girls at first and then theyā€™re simultaneously like wait a minuteā€¦ more Touou/Kaijo ships pls)
Nijimura (I have this idea of them reuniting late into/after high school and Aomine still calls him captain out of habit and Nijimuraā€™s like relieved and impressed to see how heā€™s developed since the mess at Teiko)
Himuro (they Never interact but theyā€™d be so Petty and Snarky sign me up)
Haizaki (twisted, but Iā€™m interested itā€™d be so unhealthy and awful bring it)
Hanamiya (even more twisted tbh but there is that moment where Aomine confronts himā€¦ and Iā€™m here for hate sex just as much as your typical romance)
Inoue (who, you ask? I know heā€™s such a side character and no one remembers him, but heā€™s a big reason for Aomineā€™s downfall at Teiko and they seemed to be buddies before that, Iā€™d be interested in some kind of reconciliation between them, or a romance, ya know whatever works)
And then we get into crossover territoryā€¦ MOST of these are not my fault theyā€™re just things Iā€™ve seen and adopted for myself
Kuroo Tetsurou (someone made a moodboard for them, and now I canā€™t stop thinking about them in a relationship, like damnā€¦ itā€™d be such a beautiful mess I wanna see more of it)
Oikawa Tooru (Iā€™ve seen art, and also the light. These two damaged angsty prodigies, one sharp as a whip the other dumb as bricks, but both of them sassy and nerdy as hell. I could see myself getting addicted to this ship if I took the time to write it out, and I just might)
Yamazaki Sousuke (canā€™t lie, they look good together. Iā€™ve seen more than one art piece of them interacting and I have a Mighty Need.)
Matsuoka Rin (angry lonely talented boys finding solace in each otherā€™s company? you know thatā€™s my shit. also shark teeth and cop AUs hells yeah.)Ā 
Tanaka Ryuunosuke (I donā€™t know where the fuck this idea came from but I thought of Tanaka trying to pick a fight withĀ ā€œshitty boiā€ Aomine while in Tokyo and then losing his shit and here we are)
Terushima Yuuji (this one is purely physicalā€¦ they pretty, I have no other reason, but also this absolute fuckboy, these two would be such a train wreck and Iā€™m here for it tbh)
Yachi Hitoka (okay picture this Giant Terrifying basketball player trying to be less giant and terrifying to tiny shy Yachi and tell me you donā€™t just want to see that happen. I get Legosi/Haru vibes.)
Iā€™ll spare you the rest of the ideas Iā€™ve tossed around, because past this point it becomes pure crack (if it hasnā€™t already) but you get the idea. Throw a character my way and I can probably talk myself into it thatā€™s the power this guy has over me. ĀÆ\_(惄)_/ĀÆ
My non-romantic OTP for this character
K considering the Listā€¦ it shouldnā€™t be surprising that I also consider this person a romantic candidate, but you know when it comes to non-romantic OTP itā€™s gotta be Momoi. Platonic or romantic, the way sheā€™s stuck with him all those years and his obvious protectiveness and love for her and how (even though he claims to like big tits) he never even once starts to objectify her in any way, itā€™s so important to me. Momoi is Aomineā€™s redeeming factor when heā€™s at his worst, and she goes to bat for him even while heā€™s actively trying to shake her off and still tries to protect and help him when he refuses to accept it, even when it means they fight. (Also Kuroko sayingĀ ā€œAomineā€™s probably looking for youā€ after their argument puts to mind Aomine running through the rain calling Momoiā€™s name and that is justā€¦ pure). These two have the kind of unshakable long-standing friendship thatā€™ll probably last them the rest of their lives, and no matter what context or form it takes, I canā€™t get enough of it.Ā 
My unpopular opinion about this character
Iā€™ve harped on enough about the fandomā€™s portrayal of Aomine as a one-note asshole who doesnā€™t care before, so letā€™s see if I can change gears a little bit here.Ā 
I honestly donā€™t agree withā€¦ the persistent idea people seem to have of Aomine being a narcissist or obsessed with himself? Like yeah, heā€™s self-absorbed and egotistical, no question, this is not to say he hasnā€™t got those flaws and others besidesā€¦ but thatā€™s not the same as being like, physically attracted to yourself. Part of me suspects it was aĀ ā€œthe only one who can fuck me is meā€ joke taken too far, so that now the idea of Aomine being in love with himself is just ingrained into the fanon culture, but if you look at the show itself, personally I donā€™t see it. If anything, I would think heā€™d have some self-loathing issues to work through (and thatā€™s part of the reason he gave for skipping practice, he doesnā€™t want to be the way he is, and specifically says he doesnā€™t want to increase the difference between him and everyone else). But hey, thatā€™s just my opinion. Iā€™ll get off my soapbox now.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
I mean he says he and Kagami are postponing their match, after their brief one-on-one when he gives him the shoes, and then we never get to see itā€¦ Tbh just more street ball with this guy would be great, since itā€™s what his whole style is based around. Even if heā€™s just playing by himselfā€¦ or hell, maybe since he thinks no one at the high school level can beat him, we could get a scene of him trying to go up against adults. Maybe he still beats them and his despair worsens after that, but then itā€™d have more meaning, and at least weā€™ll have seen that heā€™s tried and is not just giving up before heā€™s seen all of what he could be up against in the future. Plus, picturing Aomine going five-on-one like Haizaki did against grown-ups and still slaughtering them is something Iā€™d pay money to see.Ā

SHIP QUESTIONS THINGY
Status: Accepting
@streetsofsecrets said: our ships?? šŸ„ŗ ( Angelo & Cecilia )
PRE-RELATIONSHIP
How did they first meet?: She just so happened to come into his bar on a day that he was feeling particularly chatty.
What was their first impression of each other?: He thought that she was a really pretty girl and super sweet for keeping up with his conversation.
Did any of their friends or family want them to get together?: Melissa definitely pushed Cecilia to pursue a relationship with Angelo. She thought he was a nice guy and would help keep her out of trouble. Cynthia thought Cecilia was a nice girl from all the stories Angelo told her about him, so she also encouraged him to get with her.
Who felt romantic feelings first?: Cecilia and she probably caught them really early on. And by really really on I mean by the end of their first conversation with each other.
Did either of them try to resist their feelings?: Nope! They fell for each other pretty fast and were very open about their feelings with one another.
If you had told one of them that the other would be their soulmate, what would they think?: These two lovebirds would believe it in a heartbeat no questions asked.
GENERAL
Who initiated the relationship, and how did it go?: Angelo flat out just asked her one day after work if she wanted to be a thing with him and you already know she said yes in a heartbeat.
Did they have an official first date? If so, what was it like?: He took her down to the beach and they had a picnic with each other then did whatever attractions they could find on the beach. It couldā€™ve been the two of them in just a concrete room and they wouldā€™ve had fun regardless.
What was their first kiss like?: It was on their beach date! It was late at night, they were sitting on top of his car watching the tides rise, and he leaned in for a kiss when she was distracted. 100/10.
Were they each otherā€™s first anything (kiss, relationship, etc.)?: Believe it or not but she was actually his first official girlfriend.
Whatā€™s their height difference? Age difference?: The Amici boys are really tall built man, so thereā€™s definitely something inches between them. She stops at like the middle of his torso, but because of how beefy he is she appears much smaller. As for age, I think heā€™s older than her by about 2-3 years. Maybe, idk math like that.
Whatā€™s their relationship with each otherā€™s families?: Please, itā€™s Cynthia and Delores their families are going to get along perfectly no matter the AU or verse.
Who takes the lead in social situations?: Angelo. Heā€™s a very social person and loves to talk and interact with people, so heā€™s usually the one to take lead.
Who gets jealous easier?: Cecilia definitely. He can be taking someoneā€™s order and she could be like ā€œHmm, Indont like how that customer smiled extra hard at him like that.ā€
LOVE
Who said ā€œI love youā€ first?: Cecilia and I feel like she told him pretty early on in their relationship. He was shocked, but he he reciprocated the words!!
What are their primary love languages?: All of them? Mostly touch and words of affirmation but they practice nearly every love language there is.
How often do they cuddle/engage in PDA?: Maybe theyā€™ll sneak a kiss or two while theyā€™re working but as far as PDA goes thatā€™s really it.
What are their favorite things to do together?: Watch Sesame Street together šŸ˜… but really, sometimes theyā€™ll stay behind after everyone has left the bar and just sit there talking to each other about their day or whatever they want to. Itā€™s very therapeutic for the both of them.
Whoā€™s better at comforting the other?: I feel like Cecilia is better at comforting him. She piques me as the type to be very concerned about those around her and try to get to the bottom of their problems.
Whoā€™s more protective?: Angelo is 100% more protective of Cecilia. He knows how bad the people who frequent that bar are and he doesnā€™t want her to get involved with any of that or he in the middle of it. Heā€™d go crazy if something happened to her.
Do they prefer verbal or physical affection?: Both! Any type of affection. Theyā€™re such an affectionate couple.
What are some songs that apply to their relationship, in-universe or otherwise?: I really need to expand my romantic songs knowledge because I can not think of a song to save my life.
What kind of nicknames do they call each other?: He sticks with just Cece or Angel.
DOMESTIC LIFE
If they get married, who proposes?: Angelo and he did it in front of the whole bar because heā€™s extra like that. Plus, they got a free bottle of champagne even tho they work there and his dad owns the place.
Whatā€™s the wedding like? Who attends?: A small wedding in somebodyā€™s backyard with just close family and friends. A lot of Pinterest wedding puns involved and I feel like they wouldnā€™t do anything traditionally at all, everything had their own twist to it.
How many kids do they have, if any? What are they like?: Twins run in Angeloā€™s family so am I going to torture Cecilia with that?ā€¦..Yes! Their kids would be the most energetic children you ever met. Always running around, never able to sit still, and talking to you for hours at a time about nothing but nonsense. Totally considered the best grandkids and glue of the family.
Do they have any pets?: Besides Ceciliaā€™s guinea pigs, I feel like they would get ferrets again after all the tales Cece told him about the pets from her childhood. He always wanted a bunny too so add that to the list. Their house is like a farm at this point.
Whoā€™s the stricter parent?: Errrrrmmm, Cecilia! Even though sheā€™s a laidback gal, I think she can be serious when she wants to and discipline her children.
Who kills the bugs in the house?: They donā€™t, they use those little tv gadgets to remove them from the house. Either that or they feed them to their pets.
How do they celebrate holidays?: With Ceciliaā€™s pets and themselves. Sometimes they have a holiday party at the bar, but most of the time theyā€™re at home trying to fit sweaters on guinea pigs. Theyā€™ll pop out to family events for a little bit, but go home after a while.
Whoā€™s more likely to convince the other to come back to sleep in the morning?: Angeloā€™s a very energetic person who likes to be up in the morning and active, so I wouldnā€™t blame Cecilia if she pulled him back into the bed some mornings so they could have more time with each other.
Whoā€™s the better cook?: Angelo. You can thank Leonel for that, he always had him in the kitchen helping him as he cooked.

Finally cooled off a reasonable amount to gather my thoughts.
THAT EPISODE WAS ABOUT TO BE SO PHENOMENAL. EVERYTHING ABOUT IT WAS GOING PHENOMENALLY.
THEN THEY CHOSE TO HAVE TWO SEASONED, PROFESSIONAL HUNTSMAN WHO /KNOW/ SALEMā€™S GOAL IS FIRST AND FOREMOST TO DIVIDE, FIGHT EACH OTHER INSTEAD OF TAKING CARE OF THE FUCKING SERIAL KILLER FIRST.
The 2v1 on Robyn and Qrow vs Clover? Sure, and they were actually pretty close to resolving that and everyone calming down. Even the 1v1v1 of Qrow Tyrian and Clover? SURE I GUESS Clover just HAS to make arresting Qrow a priority as well as RECAPTURING THE KILLER. But the fucking 2v1 of Tyrian and Qrow vs Clover was SO STUPID. You needed THREE HUNTSMAN to originally capture him! Youā€™re down Robyn, WHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY HAVE BOTH QROW AND CLOVER ACTIVELY CHOOSE TO TAKE OUT THE ONLY OTHER PERSON WHO COULD FIGHT TYRIAN WITH HIM AND PROBABLY WIN.
(The rest of this post has been edited from what it once was to be a little more analytical of the characters in-show choices, but let the record show that I still HATE how the show did this and the writing was still bad for Qrow this episode. Iā€™m reeling. Fucking TYRIAN. Seriously. )
Qrow I can KINDA understand because itā€™s a ā€œdo i fight both people who are trying to come at me at once or do I accept the offer to get at least one of them out of the way so I can handle the otherā€ situation, and Clover definitely brought that on himself by refusing to stop going after Qrow.
If Qrow had given himself up to Clover heā€™d have been arrested and it would have left Clover to fight Tyrian by himself, but if Clover had given himself up to Qrow they could have taken Tyrian together and finished their shit later. THATā€™S on Clover. Clover didnā€™t even give Qrow the option. Granted Iā€™m sure Qrow could have said ā€œyou can arrest me after we deal with HIMā€ and then just...say sike afterwards.
Qrowā€™s biggest fault here is just not fucking paying attention. Qrow shouldnā€™t have trusted Tyrian even minimally to take out Clover without killing him. I mean did he really expect the serial killer to....not kill him?
BUT AT THE SAME TIME THO, CRWBY DIDNT HAVE TO FUCKING WRITE IT LIKE THAT EITHER. ITā€™S /SUPER/ BULLSHIT THAT THE ONLY OPTION THEY GAVE QROW WAS TO TEAM UP WITH TYRIAN THE FUCKING SERIAL KILLER THAT TRIED TO KILL HIM AND RUBY
Somewhat props to Qrow and Clover for trying to diffuse the situation innitially in favor of DEALING WITH THE KILLER FIRST and going to Atlas to sort things out with James. But uh, I havenā€™t liked Robyn since the beginning and honestly itā€™s her fucking fault for this by refusing to back off of Clover even though he and Qrow were ON TRACK AND WILLING to cooperate with each other to get to Atlas safely and deal with Tyrian. But she just wouldnā€™t give it up. I like characters, especially women, that fight for the people as much as the next guy but Robynā€™s tactics (while itā€™s valid and necessary to resort to stealing and violence when up against oppression) has ALWAYS been to pick fights. Even when talking things out, she just has this attitude with people that she wants to pick a fight with them and itā€™s been super annoying. Since Clover initially wouldnā€™t tell her abt Amity sheā€™s consistently been refusing to listen or hear other people out and try to cooperate even after Blake and Yang confided in her. But still when it all went to shit Clover should have given up on apprehending Qrow to, idk, FUCKING FIGHT THE KILLER.
Yā€™ALL WANTED TO TALK ABOUT WANTING TO BE FRIENDS SO BAD JUST FUCKING BE FUCKING FRIENDS FOR THE TWO MINUTES YOUā€™D NEED TO DEAL WITH TYRIAN AND THEN FIGHT EACH OTHER.
But calming down. Iā€™m not really gonna call this one a Bury Your Gays, and while Iā€™m as tired of it as the rest of you as a gay person, and fucking pissed that this is what they chose to do with Clover and a new relationship with some of the most potential, we all have to remember that from a hard standpoint this volume was already written and done with before we got our hands on the ship, and if they really were intending on the friends thing at first, they couldnā€™t just rework the volumeā€™s whole ending to appease some tidbits that people saw between two characters. But Iā€™m still angry, they still could have done it different. But Iā€™m numb to it and not gonna cry over spilled milk and accuse the show writers of all kinds of bullshit because itā€™s not worth it. Whatā€™s done is done. I hope they do better.
But Clover was also scraping the barrel on our part for the rep, WEā€™re the ones that hyped him up and he was set up as a trusted loyal ally of Ironwood from the beginning and weā€™re all acting surprised that he made his choices.
We were all HOPING Clover wouldnā€™t follow Ironwood, but itā€™s not like we were seriously lead to believe he would, and Cloverā€™s choice to blindly follow got him killed in an unfortunate circumstance. He walked and talked like he was completely loyal to Ironwood and if he wasnā€™t going to (surprise) be completely loyal to Ironwood, they would have built that hesitance and questioning up more. Fuck, MARROW was more hesitant to fight than Clover was.
That being said, what I am most upset and kind of mad about was how cruel it was for them to rescind all of Qrowā€™s growth and budding happiness, even if it was just in finding a good friend, one that had good luck and he didnā€™t really have to worry about him getting hurt by his misfortune. Someone who actually forced Qrow to see the good things heā€™s done and should be rewarded for when pretty much everyone has been putting him down up until now. While real life struggles like addiction ARE an on and off fight, In fiction it can get repetetive and somethings NEED to be put behind characters and resolved. If Qrow goes back to drinking Season 8ā€™s gonna look a lot like season 6 but worse for our birb and with stakes rising and bigger fish to fry I donā€™t think anyone will have the patience to help him this time
100% pleased with every other part of the episode, ESPECIALLY Winter and Penny, the complexity of those twoā€™s interactions was very intriguing and hopefully if not them, SOMEONE will fucking kill Cinder next week because she hasnā€™t been interesting as a villain since Volume 4. 100% pleased with RWBY vs the Ace Ops. Wasnā€™t expecting Elm to go off so hard. I like that RWBY has confidence in themselves and have proven they really arenā€™t just students or children anymore and that they can and will hold their own and theyā€™ll win too. Theyā€™ve improved so well as fighters and I think the establishment of them as the strongest is key for why theyā€™re the heroes of the story. If they werenā€™t going to end up as the best why would focus on them and not a more powerful group to oppose Cinder. AND proving that their bonds are what gave them that victory. The Ace Ops were demolished the second there was even a fraction of dissonance in them because they refused to be friends and cooperate and trust each other beyond their jobs, so their teamwork crumbled because Marrow and even slightly Vine were hesitant while Harriet and Elm were off the walls. Other than that, im maybe .5% pleased with THAT whole...Thing, ONLY because they were actually on their way to calming down and backing off before Tyrian crashed the plane.
It was 99% phenomenal and 1% bad choices but the gravity of that choice made the episode like, 20% less enjoyable than it should have been over all.
Hereā€™s hoping that good luck kicks in and Clover still has a chance.

whispers for the 'send you a series' meme, i'm tempted to just be Unoriginal and say kung fu panda, but if you'd rather something else, i'm seeing a lot of steven universe around here jfjfiea
Masha ily. You know that, right? :D
Kung Fu Panda:
Favourite character: Who else but Shifu? XD
Second favourite character: It might actually be Po
Least favourite character: Hard to think of a least favourite character. If we ONLY count the main cast + the villains in the movies and exclude any other minor characters, then Iā€™d say Kai maybe? Just wasnā€™t as impactful to me as the other characters/villains. Or if we include minor characters I might say the hugging panda from the third movie because the gag and his character didnā€™t really add much. Also, Iā€™ve already spoken about this in the past, possibly more than once, but back when I was a child upon watching the first movie, my answer to this question would actually be Ping. Suffice it to say, my opinion on him changed a LOT. XD
The character Iā€™m most like: Maybe I am like Po in some ways. At my core, Iā€™m a fangirl lol. And I like food :O
Favourite pairing: Donā€™t really have any ships. Crane and the girl from that one short tho. Like idk if Iā€™d want them to get together, maybe not now that I think about it. But it would be nice to see them interact more.
Least favourite pairing: HAH. Letā€™s just say I really hate what Legends of Awesomeness decided to do with Shifu in the shipping realm and leave it at that. :P
Favourite moment: YOUā€™RE GONNA MAKE ME CHOOSE? Thereā€™s no way. I could only list off notable ones. Okay, if we narrow it down to non-Shifu moments, off the top of my head, you obviously have the iconic cannonball scene at the end of kung fu panda 2, and in the THIRD movie I love love love how when Po is in the spirit realm and he says ā€œturns out... Iā€™m all of themā€ and the music swells and the framing and the scenery is just. so gorgeous . I love. So much. If I sat here thinking too long Iā€™d probably start recapping all the movies SO since Iā€™ve thrown those two out there Iā€™ll cut myself off before I get too out of hand. XD
Rating out of 10: First movie is just 10/10 for me. Itā€™s my favourite movie, not just in the franchise but like, probably ever among movies in general, and just about every moment and scene feels like home when I watch it. The trio of movies Iā€™d then put at probably around 9/10.
Steven Universe:
Favourite character: I can now say with confidence that it is Steven Universe.
The people who liked StevenĀ ā€œbefore it was coolā€ certainly have bragging rights, because I was one of those people who failed to find myself among them, as I lacked the foresight, or... future vision for it. :P. At first, in the very early days, I didnā€™t really care for Steven. Itā€™s often very easy to gloss over a protagonist, and, in my case, not truly appreciate whatā€™s great in a character like early-days Steven, or even Po. Now, Steven and Po are, naturally, quite distinct characters in their distinct franchises but there are certainly parallels that can be drawn, not only in their character but how I initially felt towards them. By asking for both fandoms in the one ask, I feel like youā€™ve given me the opportunity to speak about this, which has been idly on my mind every so often. XDBoth Steven and Po are the protagonist of the franchise theyā€™re in. Theyā€™re both fond of food, they both start out needing training and then develop incredible skills along the way until they become one of, if not the most powerful in the cast. Theyā€™re both generally very easygoing, excitable, enthusiastic, FRIENDLY, and generally kind. At the start of their journeys, thereā€™s a lot of focus on how much theyā€™re lacking in skills and abilities, how difficult it is for them to accomplish even the basics. They both gotta Save The World, whether it be more in the sense of the universe as a whole or China.And the thing is I had the same issue with Po as I did with early-days Steven; I didnā€™t realise how great Po is. I was just a little too dismissive. With time, (and Iā€™m talking around the point where I actually entered the fandom after the second movie was out, so it was mostly kid me who is guilty of not recognising Poā€™s greatness) I grew to realise just how cool Po is, to truly appreciate his genuine enthusiasm and excitement and also utmost reverence and admiration of kung fu. I simply Expected Poā€™s character to be less than it was, which is what caused the oversight. But Po is honestly so fantastic and deserves every last bit of love the fandom has to offer him. Also, seeing his potential and him reaching his potential is so damn epic. See: hisĀ ā€œturns out, Iā€™m all of themā€ quote/scene I mentioned earlier.So to bring things back to Steven, whose character arc nonetheless has its VERY stark differences from Poā€™s, it was around when Steven managed to calm down and stop the cluster that it fully registered in my mind how fantastic and amazing he is and how much I appreciate his character. In fact, it was a little earlier than that. Pretty sure I hadnā€™t actually started watching the show yet when Sadieā€™s Song aired, but I was getting all the deets secondhand on my dashboard and I loved what I heard and saw in gifs/pics. A boy who just wants to perform and dance around on stage in heels and a gorgeous outfit to boot (I really liked the thought of trans girl Steven at the time tbh, which was being thrown about on my dashboard back then, though of course thatā€™s not the path the show decided to go down, so he/him it is...!). He had my full support. And THEN when he calmed the cluster down like that... (and I think I was probably watching the show at that point?) I just, loved his incredible talent to reach out to others and HELP them, I loved his magical gem abilities and how he always seemed to be triumphing against the odds, and as the show progressed his feats only started getting more and more impressive. I absolutely noticed how much responsibilities heā€™d started forcing onto himself, how he was trying to manage everyone and be an adult to all the adults in his life, I was kind of intrigued by how much he was shouldering, and it struck me that he had developed an Atlas Personality long, long before he was ever listed as an example of it on the wikipedia page. I simply adored Steven and his placement in the show and everything.Heā€™s also completely ACING things as usual in the movie too.And then Steven Universe Future hit, and oh boy, thatā€™s a whole other story. Steven truly emerged as the forefront seeing as the focus was now unrelentingly on him and his issues. What initially got me really hooked as well, was the inherent shock and intrigue of seeing a character who would usually always do the right thing, who always seemed to know what was best for everyone, who always seemed to be able to read a situation and understand who needed help and then reaching out and offering them help... not only completely failing to recognise that HE was the source of a given problem (see: the pink dome rapidly closing in), but to actively dig himself deeper by being convinced SOMEONE ELSE was at fault, and whirling around and trying to pin it all on them. Before Steven whirled around to point at Lars, there was absolutely no doubt in my mind that he was about to be likeĀ ā€œguys, you know what? I think Iā€™m causing this - I think I have some stuff going onā€ LOL NOPE. And that was only the tip of the ice berg. Steven had nowhere else to go but down, and boy, down did he go until he hit rock bottom, pulled out a shovel and started digging.
Second favourite character: Hard to say. I do know that I am crazy about the zircons (I mean cā€™mon - lawyers!). I was crazy about Blue Pearl when we first saw her too. My answer mightā€™ve been Aquamarine or even Eyeball if it wasnā€™t for Steven Universe Future. Seeing more of them just kinda made me goĀ ā€œok you know what, yeah this isnā€™t really what I expected and theyā€™re not actually really my thing after all.ā€ I reeeeally donā€™t know. Steven Universe has such a stellar cast of great characters. Steven Universe Future also kinda threw me off Spinel, but obviously Spinel is A+ as well.
Least favourite character: I donā€™t really care about Lapis. She just kind of lost appeal as a character to me and I never really understood her I guess. I was also never fond of the diamonds... because you know, discourse, and like, the discourse kind of has a point. But after Steven Universe Future I might invest more in trying to understand their positioning in the show a little more, now with the confirmation that Steven never did actually forgive them. I completely wrote-off White Diamondā€™s seemingly quick turnaround for the longest time and honestly never bought it and felt it was WAY too easy and rushed/forced. But I came to an internal understanding quite recently and I THINK I finally get what the show meant there so I think I can buy it now and find it believable at last, which is nice. So donā€™t quote me and donā€™t crucify me, but I might warm up to the diamonds a Little.
The character Iā€™m most like: omg. Thereā€™s so many characters idk who is most like me hahaha
Favourite pairing:Ā Connverse. Connie kissing Steven on the cheek in the movie made me SO pleased, and I can say this is my favourite pairing if only because the prospect of it not working out and instead going up in flames and not actually having a good resolution - which is a threat that felt so very real during Steven Universe Future - was deeply, DEEPLY upsetting to me. Like I didnā€™t care because Iā€™d been taking it for GRANTED, but the moment anyone suggested, with alarming plausibility that they may split up or whatever, I was immediately on edge likeĀ ā€œNO NO NO NO NOā€.
Least favourite pairing:Ā Stevinel. Stevidot. Just, any ship with Steven and any of the gems is an instant no from me. D:
Favourite moment:Ā omggg. Again, there are simply way too many, so no answer I give here can or will be definitive. So Iā€™ll simply state my love for when Steven is singing Change and Spinel yeets him in the sky and thereā€™s the stellar animation where he goesĀ ā€œYou can make it different... You can make it right! You can make it better! We donā€™t have to fight!ā€
Rating out of 10:Ā Iā€™d probably give it a 9/10, if only because, look. There are a LOT of shows out there. There are a lot of pieces of media Iā€™m into and have watched. And Steven Universe is just. Itā€™s good. Even when I like another piece of media MORE than Steven Universe, I can still more than readily acknowledge when/if SU has vastly superior writing. And it usually does. The only thing stopping me from giving it a 10/10 is because for the vast majority of SUā€™s existence I was mainly only ever a passive watcher/fan and/or got secondhand knowledge (closer to the start of it airing), so it lacks that fundamental closeness to my heart that something like Kung Fu Panda has. (Though I got way more close to it during SUF, as my reblogs can attest to LOL). The other thing stopping it from hitting that 10/10 is there are things I still take issue with, like how the Rose=Pink reveal undermines Pearlā€™s character (the ā€œrebellionā€ aspect) and casts an EXTREMELY uncomfortable light on Pearl being in love with Rose. Yes, the show already showed us that Pearlā€™s obsession with Rose is unhealthy and problematised it. But regardless of how problematised it already was, Iā€™m just not comfortable with a former slave being shown as being in love with their former master at all. What does that add, realistically? There are other valid criticisms that have been pointed out, namely how aspects of the show such as Sugiliteā€™s role in Coach Steven do fail its Black audience. That undercurrent is there and itā€™s unfortunate.

so I saw Frozen 2 for the fourth time
i have so many questions.
thereā€™s a relatively negative (and very long) review beneath the cut so pls read at your own risk. and, of course, spoilers.
Iā€™ve seen Frozen 2 four times now and yikes. Iā€™d kinda hoped it would get better with each viewing, but itā€™s somehow worse??? I really loved the first movie; it literally changed my life in an incredibly drastic way (donā€™t ask) but it had been very important to me over the past six years, and...Iā€™m so disappointed.
My initial reaction was disappointment, and I shouldā€™ve stuck with it. Like, wtf was that? But some parts were also really well done? It left me so conflicted lol
PROS
Vuelie was a good way to open the film; I quite liked the nostalgia :ā€™)
The intro scene in general was good; I liked seeing more of their parents, although idk what their father was thinking telling them such a tale before bed lmao seems like some shit my mother would do
All is Found is my favourite non-depressing song in the movie, and it opens it beautifully. ERW has a wonderful voice.
The animation really is beautiful; it looks so realistic. Specifically the clouds and the one scene of the waves crashing over the pine trees. It looked amazing!
The music is good but not great. FTFTIF is my favourite; itā€™s so catchy and cheery. I really liked TNRT, and SY is perfect, but these songs just werenā€™t as catchy as the ones in Frozen?? Iā€™m thankful for AURORA tho, that was a lovely gift.
Bruni was absolutely adorable (even tho he was an obvious cash-grab for merch lol), 10/10 love Bruni. Bruni + Elsa = even better.
Anna looked absolutely breathtaking throughout the entire movie; the redesign they did animation-wise really works in her favour, and now sheā€™s rocking those Emilia Clarke eyebrows which is a hell yes from me. Her final look gave me all the feels; I canā€™t say Iā€™m a huge fan of the dress and hairstyle?? it seemed a bit too not Anna, but at the same time, it showed her growth and maturity and Iā€™m very happy with that.
As dark as it was, the shipwreck scene was beautiful. It was handled beautifully; their reactions were devastating. There is a huge con here, but Iā€™ll save that for later.
The ocean battle was really neat. The water looked so good, and Elsa looks good wet???
The whole scene in Ahtohallan was well done; I liked the memories. I wish Anna had been there; she deserved to see her history, too, and it wasnā€™t fair that Elsa got that spotlight once again.
Everything after Elsa freezing was absolutely breathtaking as well. Annaā€™s reactions, the song, the scenery-- it was tragically beautiful.
Kristoff had the two best lines in the ENTIRE movie: ā€œIā€™m here. What do you need?ā€ and ā€œItā€™s okay. My love is not fragile.ā€ Itā€™s so rare to see a good, supportive relationship in tv/movies, be it heterosexual or homosexual, it doesnā€™t happen. Itā€™s so rare. So this was a beautiful break from that; the faith he had in her was amazing. Thank u. the real mvp.
The scene with Anna as she accepts the fate of her future; as she takes in a breath and realises/accepts that her home is gone, and her blood family is gone. Everything about it was perfect. You could feel her emptiness. Poor baby needed a hug :(
I liked that Kristoff also hugged Elsa when she returned; it showed that they were friends, which is really important for Anna tbh
I think thatā€™s it for pros??? Now for the cons.
CONS:
Gonna start this off simple: the plot was weak. This is unfortunately not an unpopular opinion; it made no sense. It was too convoluted to the point where nothing was explained.
The pacing was off, and it was ridiculously anti-climactic. The layout in general seemed a bit weird tbh I could definitely sit here and justify all of it, but I shouldnā€™t have to.
They gave us no reason to gaf about this voice that Elsa was hearing. How long had she been hearing it for? Why was she so drawn to it? Why didnā€™t she think she was just hearing things? Or maybe she did at one point and then realised she wasnā€™t crazy?Ā 
There was almost no character development. Elsa was the same as she was in Frozen, but this time, it was just annoying. She never learned or grew. Anna was demoted to a clingy side-character even though sheā€™s the protagonist; I have no words for how frustrating this was to watch. I miss the Kristanna bickering. I liked their dynamic overall; I understand their insecurities and lack of ability to communicate because of it, and I liked how non-toxic they were. Overall, they did love and trust each other; they believed in and supported each other, even though they had a falling out (again and again) and were separated for most of the film (again, wtf?) EA had no development together, and honestly, they were annoying asf as a duo. There was no communication and no understanding. I will say that Annaā€™s fear and frustration throughout the entire movie was absolutely 100% understandable and sensible; sheā€™d already lost too much before, and wasnā€™t prepared to lose anything else. I just wish sheā€™d been portrayed a bit differently??? And it wouldā€™ve been nice if Elsa had stopped for, like, two minutes to be like, ā€œhey, are you okay, you seem clingy and worriedā€ but instead she just kept running and didnā€™t gaf.
It was over dramatic for the sake of plot, when it didnā€™t have to be. Elsa didnā€™t have to continuously try and push Anna away ā€œfor her protection.ā€ They absolutely couldā€™ve done the vast majority of things together. Fuck, they couldā€™ve gone to the dark sea together. Anna couldā€™ve stayed on the beach while Elsa tackled the Nokk. Then when Anna saw that Elsa was perfectly capable of protecting herself, they couldā€™ve parted ways then and done whatever it was they needed to do. Or, Elsa couldā€™ve taken Anna to Ahtohallan?? They may have discovered there that Anna couldnā€™t enter, but then theyā€™d be given the opportunity to communicate, and Anna wouldā€™ve at least been included, since this was her history, too.
If this is a movie about two sisters, why the ever loving fuck is it all about Elsa and her origins? What about Annaā€™s origins? They were her parents, too. Sure, we ask ā€œwhy does Elsa have magic,ā€ but why doesnā€™t Anna have magic? Why was Elsa the ā€œgiftā€? Why is Annaā€™s superpower ā€œloveā€?? And why is that ā€œsuperpowerā€ only valid when itā€™s in regards to Elsa? Why is Anna so strong, physically? Emotionally? Personally? Is it just her? Why isnā€™t she an element, too? Whatā€™s with this bridge bullshit? Why the fuckkkk is Elsa the ā€œfifth spiritā€ when sheā€™s ice and ice is literally just water? I have so many questions.
How the heck was Iduna Northuldra? Did she become ā€œwhiterā€ because she remained inside a castle for twenty years? Or was she always ā€œwhite passingā€? Or was she adopted into the forest? Who are her parents? Did anybody miss her when she ran off to the kingdom? Her scarf was from ā€œone of [their] oldest familiesā€ and yet nobody seemed to know who she was? And what do you mean ā€œoldest familiesā€? Are there no remaining members of that family? Nobody who was missing her? Nobody who wouldā€™ve recognised her daughters who are literally carbon-copies of her????
The shipwreck scene and the following scene pissed me off soooo much in the theatre lol First, it really was beautiful how they did it, but the interactions felt out of character. Elsa brought up the memories of their parentsā€™ demise without consoling Anna at all. Not only did she just do it without at least a warning, she then proceeded to leave her behind in her own fit. Which, okay, yes, to an extent that makes sense; she was over-ridden by guilt. But those were Annaā€™s parents too. Elsa was all she had, and Elsa left her behind. I just- AND THEN in this moment of severe grief and horror, as these terrible things were revealed, Anna was pushed away again to be left on her own to deal with things alone. Sheā€™d JUST sacrificed her own feelings for Elsa, and Elsaā€™s response was to shove her away. WHY. I just??? hello??? Like, Elsa does care about Anna, right? Thatā€™s canon? So why tf would they write her like this?? jfc
Every single new character was wasted potential. Mattias above all else was very interesting, and shouldā€™ve had at least ten minutes more screentime??? I liked the scene of him and Anna discussing whatever, but there shouldā€™ve been more. They both cared more about Arendelle than anyone; they were both sworn to protect. There couldā€™ve been more of an on-screen relationship there. (and donā€™t fucking come at me with your gross-ass ships please, tyvm). Honeymaren and Ryder were there for ??? merchandise? A reason for Elsa to stay behind? Queer-baiting??? I donā€™t get it. They did,,, nothing. Yelena? Did nothing. Why do these name-characters do nothing?? Whatā€™s the point???
This was advertised as a ā€œbig adventureā€ but had hardly any adventure. Frohana was apart for most of the damn movie, the action scenes had little consequences, the ā€œclimaxā€ was ??? what, Elsa freezing? Who cares?? Itā€™s obvious sheā€™s going to come back. The wave heading for Arendelle??? Yeah, that wouldā€™ve been a good climax if it actually did any damage. But no, I guess Elsa can teleport now? aight. and now she gets to play hero again even though she didnā€™t do shit
The plot(?) was very predictable, and didnt really have a twist. Old white guy kills innocent POC. Okay. Thatā€™s real life, yeah? Itā€™s shit; it happens, but why was this whole movie based around that? Was it a political statement? We donā€™t really need more political movies these days??? People are aware, and things are shit as is; idk it just felt forced. But this is a v controversial subject so imma shut up lol
THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES. Unless youā€™re Anna. Then you suffer severely cuz,,, fuck her, right? The entire cave thing (as beautiful and needed as it was) couldā€™ve been prevented entirely if Elsa had just fucking communicated. But instead, Anna had to suffer again in such a severe way. Her feelings DID have consequences; they effected her severely and even influenced wreckless behaviour. But then?? itā€™s all over. And suddenly, it doesnā€™t matter. Suddenly, who cares? Elsa returns and is (for some unforeseen reason) magically forgiven. This ISNā€™T HOW SISTERS ARE. If my sister pulled half the shit Elsa did, the first thing sheā€™d be greeted with is a slap across the face and a very loud ā€œfuck you.ā€ THEN sheā€™d get a hug and some tears. You donā€™t fuck with peopleā€™s emotions like that. And the fact that there were no serious consequences is infuriating.
Anna becomes Queen without context. Did she want to be queen? Did she suggest it? Did Elsa decided ā€œeh fuck it iā€™m bored, your turnā€ and just dump it on her? Anna is a free-spirit. Yes, she was absolutely devoted to her kingdom; her people always came first; she was an incredibly loving and selfless princess, but was she truly prepared to give up that freedom to be Queen? I think she fits the role beautifully; she was absolutely born to rule. But is she happy? Or is she yet again cleaning up Elsaā€™s mess, since that seems to be all she does?
Why did Elsa stay in the forest? Is it because she felt like she belonged with the spirits? With the people? Away from civilisation? All of the above? None of the above? And how did that conversation go with Anna? How did she explain; ā€œhey, I know I died and fucked you up and promised that weā€™d always stay together, but Iā€™ve decided Iā€™m gonna leave you behind again and stay here with these people I barely know.ā€ Did Anna object, or did she see the positives of being away from someone so toxic???? It makes no senseeeee, they were so good together in the first movie; it all feels so out of character. Both of them feel out of character.
There were few (very few) moments in which they really were like themselves:
The charades scene.
ā€œYou think Iā€™m c R A Z Y?ā€
Head tilts with Bruni.
Anna laughing at Elsaā€™s braid-stache.
Elsa making toys for children.
The pleasant Kristanna scenes at the beginning.
Annaā€™s anger scenes.
Even Elsaā€™s personal drama???
but thatā€™s it? Iā€™ve seen it four times in theatre, and a few times online (though mostly in pieces) so I donā€™t think I missed anything. Perhaps Iā€™m blinded by the frustration that this film caused. Overall:
The plot was weak.
The animation was beautiful.
Kristanna wasnā€™t the Kristanna we truly know?
Elsa was dramatic and annoying because she had no development.
Anna was demoted to a clingy side-character and was given a half-assed purpose.
The music was meh.
There was too much and yet somehow not enough.
It was a mess.
Six years. SIX. I-
ugh.
final note: PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTIONS IF I MISSED SOMETHING. I think itā€™s also important to note that if you went to the theatre for 2 hours of entertainment, thatā€™s great, but not the same as those of us that have dedicated six years of our lives to these characters? So please donā€™t come @ me if you were just a movie-goer. I also wanna say that there were a lot of parts of this movie that I loved and will hold onto, but overall, the movie as a whole was meh. I LOVED Anna & Elsa in Frozen; they had good development and had reasons for being how they were. They had a good dynamtic and worked well together. I hated their relationship in F2; it was toxic and forced in many ways; they didnā€™t interact nearly enough, and when they did, they were bitching for the sake of plot, which was very frustrating.
This isnā€™t a hate post so please donā€™t come at me lol my opinion is entirely irrelevent in the grand scheme of things, but hey, weā€™re here to chat and share, right?
sigh.

All Karen ships rated (update)
Original hereĀ 
I did this like a few months after making this account, and I thought itā€™d be fun to go back and re look at my ratings
Also since this one isnā€™t a dare to rate EVERY ship I am cutting out the protag/companion section since theyā€™re all underaged and the original ratings reflected thus wiht them all being a no. Also getting rid of ones where sheā€™s with a pokemon.Ā 
Finally Iā€™m gonna add some ones I like to the very end
strike through=my side commentary, trying to be funny italicized=if asked Iā€™d be down to rp it mostly just to see how/it itā€™d work bold=ship name and who in it to help you find a certain ship highlights=they are grouped up, again in case you want to find that one ship * by ship name=Super random ships I find kinda wild ! by ship name=Dramatic change to original rating
ships on ā€˜never ending romanceā€™ website.Ā 
Karen w/ a Villian:
! 180Shipping - Karen & Shelly -2 bad a ladies over here kicking butt and being fashionable heck yes, but also Karen is an awful swimmer so let the cute romance ensue 8/10
*AphoticShipping - Saturn & Karen-Karen would find it fun to mess with from time to time, and maybe could work. 5/10
*AtrociousShipping - Karen & Mars-I mean possible, but also Mars is really kinda child like so Karen may just want to protect her instead. 4/10
BarghestShipping - Karen & Lavana-I feel like itā€™d be like shipping Karen with a cheerleaderā€¦an evil cheerleader. 2/10
! DarkIntentionShipping - Giovanni & Karen-Tbh yeah I like it. Just depends though because again she grew up with Silver who she is like a mom (or older sis some days) to, so that would have to be worked out. Plus sheā€™s kinda miffed he left Silver from seeing how much it hurt him. But also hateship to romance, basically Iā€™ve been giving this one more thought and it could be heckin cute. 9/10
*IcePinkShipping - Karen & Lovrina-No too whinney and arrogant for Karen. 0/10
***ImperiousShipping - Hunter J & Karen-Oh dear gosh no, haaaard no, And before you ask about Twist!verse theyā€™d be both too emotionally closed. -50/100
! KariShipping - Courtney (Magma) & Karen- Been thinking about this one too and the more i think about it the less I see it. Both are too closed/awkward.Ā 1/10
LiaisonShipping - Petrel & Karen-Kinda cute in a way with them balancing each other out. Itā€™s like obvious psycho with subtle psycho, and seems fun. 8/10
! PaybackShipping - Archer & Karen- Briefly had a little shipping with this and tbh really enjoyed it. If in an au just the dynamic of the couple in 101 Dalmatians would be these two. In main verse you could have them sneaking the romance and such to not get caught. Also evil Karen? Or good Archer? 9/10
PerishSongShipping - Proton & Karen-Heā€™s a bit reactive for her, and cocky though maybe sheā€™d balance him out? 5/10
! StrangeloveShipping - Domino & Karen-ā€¦I dunno why she makes me think of sailor moon, but she does Evil Karen? then ye this could work and be fun, maybe Twist!verse would even work. 8/10
TenebrousShipping - Ariana & Karen-I find it funny the team Karen was vaguely a part of, and now is a part of her life she works so hard to distance from is the one sheā€™s shipped with ALOT. Oh and Galactic of all things is second most common for some reason. Also eh on this one. Ariana has that mom vibe, and Karen distances herself from that usually. 3/10
Karen w/ gym leader:
*BerthierShipping - Cress & Karen-I dunno because he seems like a 16 year old teen to me, but their personalities would work, so maybe. 5/10
BittersweetShipping - Karen & Whitney-Hm I can think of some interesting plots with Karenā€™s early elite four days as when they meet. Not sure what theyā€™d have in common though. 4/10
! BracknellShipping - Gardenia & Karen-Karen likes grass tyoes and Gardenia has that somewhat wild side that Karen likes I can see them spending late nights camping after exploring all day. 8/10
***ChalcedoniteShipping - Karen & Roxanne-Isnā€™t she like 16? Also I feel Karen would just see her as a spunky kid 0/10
! CockroachShipping - Burgh & Karen-Can we appreciate the name pleaseā€¦..Ok cool.Ā Ok but Karen trying to learn how to paint the normal way and showing Burgh how to do spray paint work or paint a motorcycle? Look I think theyā€™d be cute. 8/10
! ColdNightShipping - Candice & Karen-Yes, double yes. Candice talking about the pressure of having the meeting point of dialgia, palkia, and giratina so close plus the regi temple, and lake acuity. Like the pressure of keeping all of these legendary places safe is alot of pressure. Then Karen knowing about ho-oh and wanting to keep them safe, anyways they can bond ina . cool way. 10/10
*DarkActShipping - Brycen-Man & Karen-Not Brycen, Brycen-Man. I really dunno because I feel like itā€™d be too close to the Masked Man for her to be comfortable. 2/10
DarkalleyShipping - Volkner & Karen-Hmmmmm maybe, but also I feel Volkner needs a more high energy person, so 3/10. As the toxic relationship their a part of in some hallmark like plot though 10/10
DarkGaleShipping - Karen & Winona-A possibility, but I kinda see them as friends just chillin watchin clouds. 3/10
*DarkHarvestShipping - Cilan & Karen-Didnā€™t know Karen was popular with the trio, but ok. Anyways if heā€™s alot like he is in the anime thats gonna be a hard no. otherwise, eh maybe? 4/10
DarkMarshShipping - Karen & Sabrina-Friends I think. Like theyā€™d be comfortable around each other, but no spark in that way. 1/10
ElectricDarknessShipping - Elesa & Karen-I sort of want it just because while Karen dresses nice she is a tomboy meaning the clashes about fashion or manners would be great. 8/10
FightNightShipping - Karen & Maylene-If they were in the plot of a secret fight club, a hard yes. Otherwise, I donā€™t see it. 1/10
GabbroShipping - Brock & Karen-I want to see Brock do his whole freak out just to write Karenā€™s way to shoot him down. After all romance takes awhile for, and if aggressive is your first interaction it scares her. Though he does stand down after being rejected so sheā€™d respect that, and maybe think about giving a chance. 5/10
GothShipping - Clair & Karen-Popular yes, but I like the Cynthia, Karen, Clair girl squad dynamic so much more. 2/10
ImpShipping - Karen & Valerie-Karen being vastly confused but fascinated by the antics of Valerie sounds cute.Ā Ā 7/10
InsectQueenShipping - Karen & Viola-The plots would be cute knowing Karenā€™s quirks with cameras. 8/10
LamentShipping - Flannery & Karen-Idk due to lack of things to connect on overriding if personalities would work. 3/10
LiptonShipping - Jasmine & Karen-I wanna say no cause I think sheā€™d be too sweet for Karen, but also yes because she can get super intimidating and tiny Jas actually wearing the pants in their relationship sounds interesting 5/10
**MortelleShipping - Fantina & Karen-Nawā€¦to much flash and show for Karen, but maybe contest mentor. Also Karen has a vendetta against Amity Square for itā€™s selectiveness of ā€˜cute pokemonā€™. 0/10
! NightsongShipping - Falkner & Karen-The name of this ship is amazing, but Falkner is like one of those characters who gets shipped aorund with EVERYONE like really itā€™s kinda ridiculous and Iā€™m tired of him just beign thrown at everyoneĀ 2/10
! PaintedLadyShipping - Bugsy & Karen-How is this one not for Burgh?Ā  Yeah no heā€™s just too much like a kid. 0/10
RafureShipping - Erika & Karen-ā€¦can their Vileplumeā€™s fall in love instead? Iā€™m 10/10 for that. Between them 2/10
RiddlesInTheDarkShipping - Blaine & Karen-ā€¦Ehā€¦or we could not, and maybe they just are friends. I donā€™t really see romance blooming there. 0/10
SchwarzFlashShipping - Lt. Surge & Karen-Them both having PTSD? Maybe helping each other? I mean I wouldnā€™t mind giving it a shot. 7/10
ScotopiaShipping - Karen & Skyla-Maybe too much spunk like Rosa, but Karen would admire her determination. 4/10
SilkShipping - Janine & Karen-No pls. I see Karen as her unofficially adopted big sis, and find that adorable. 0/10
! UnderworldShipping - Morty & Karen- So far this has proven to be a hard no, and tbh I kinda like it better that way.Ā Ā 0/10
***WhiteMoonShipping - Pryce & Karen-Even in a verse he wasnā€™t The Masked Man imma give this a hard no. 0/10
Karen w/ an elite:
AphroditeShipping - Koga & Karen Ā -Heā€™s like her dadā€¦soā€¦no. -50/10
BadRomanceShipping - Grimsley & Karen-Bad romance is a good title cause I feel itā€™d be a rough start. 10/10
*BlackGlacierShipping - Glacia & Karen-Tbh not sure if they have much at all in common. 1/10
BlackiceShipping - Karen & Lorelei-Ok maybe because they have some similarities, but tbh I like the older gal pal bond alot. 5/10 Ā 
DarkEliteShipping - Sidney & Karen-A more punk relationship in this elite match-up, but I could see it working. 10/10
DarkKnightShipping - Wikstrom & Karen-Again the title tho! I mean yeah I think I could see it from her finding him quirky, but in a good way. Although they have wildy different aesthetics so itā€™d depend on interpretations. Right now I do love the dynamicKaren has with a Wikstrom account.Ā Ā 8/10
DelilahShipping - Bruno & Karen-Eh maybe? I like the uncle and niece bromance they have tho. 4/10
! DementiaShipping - Lucian & Karen-I feel like theyā€™d either clash or hit it off with no inbetween. I Still stand by this but I think theyā€™d everntually fall for each other.Ā  9/10
DisownShipping - Agatha & Karen-NOOOOO donā€™t make Gma relationship sexy! -50/10
! HellaFineEliteShipping - Karen & Malva-Ā Ok so came back, and yeah I could see it, but depends on interpretationsĀ again because they could just more easily spark into a fight or if the first interaction went sour not give it another shot.Ā 5/100
IntuitiveShipping - Siebold & Karen-Actually had a rp with them shipped, was Twist!verse tho giving Siebold that rescuer mentality which helped. In general though I kinda want to see it. 7/10
LambentShipping - Flint (elite) & Karen-Hm. Maybe? Like, ok the dynamic personality helps, but also would be a slow burn. 5/10
MasakudoShipping - Will & Karen- I love it in some ways, but I also feel as though theyā€™ve see so much of each otherā€™s absolute worst sides it wouldnā€™t work. ???/10
! NightmareShipping - Karen & Phoebe-Eh theyā€™d be good friends but I canā€™t see them really hitting it off as far as things they have in common. 3/10
NoWeaknessShipping - Karen & Shauntal-Ok bumbling dork sounds cute, and her defending from Grimsleyā€™s teasing sounds cute, and great now I find this cute. 8/10
RhymeShipping - Aaron (elite) & Karen-ā€¦ArE thEsE tWo ONly ShIPpeD cAUsE thEiR NAmEs RhYmE?! Jokes on you because imagine them working out together, or exploring the woods, or yeah letā€™s ship this! 8/10
ShootingStarShipping - Drake (Orange) & Karen-Hm, I mean I would like to see it before going anywhere with it. 4/10
SuckerPunchShipping - Marshal & Karen-ā€¦I see it more than Bruno, but also feel as though they could clash some how personality wise. Iā€™d like to see a plot for it though. 4/10
TerrifyingShipping - Caitlin & Karen-They both have awful sleep schedules so I feel like trying to get a time theyā€™re both awake would be a problem, and personality wise would clash. 1/10
Karen w/ a champion:
BoadiceaShipping - Cynthia & Karen-I like the best friend bond a thousand times better, but I see the appeal 7/10 BumpShipping - Steven Stone & Karen-If you asked me when I started this account I would of said,ā€in what world?ā€ Now after having various interaction with multiple accounts Iā€™m likeĀ 10/10 DreamTeamShipping - Alder & Karen-Ehā€¦yesā€¦and no? Like he did hit on Cynthia and she has qualities like her, so could maybe work.Ā Ā 6/10 NeoEliteShipping - Lance & Karen-Like yeah I can see it. Itā€™d take flippin forever with Karen being a royal butt most of the time while adjusting to elite life, and then after that theyā€™re both closed off with emotions so itā€™s take awhile. 10/10 I hate that my prediction was correct
Karen w/ a minor GAME npc:
BoxVirusShipping - Brigette & Karen-Could be interesting, but Iā€™m not sold all the way 3/10 CassiaShipping - Karen & Sina-Very random, and tbh I say no because of what little they would connect on 0/10 ChicoryShipping - Cheryl & Karen-Cheryl is so sweet. I feel too sweet because Karen needs someone that will argue with her when she needs redirecting 0/10 ClosestShipping - Karen & Zinnia-I mean the rebellious streak, the slightly odd behavior? Karen would find it intriguing, and if the move was made she wouldnā€™t oppose it. 9/10 ! DarkMagicShipping - Eusine & Karen-Better watch out Morty, Ms. Steal Ya Dude is ova here!Ā Yeah no no, they can only clash. Even without Morty beign the catalyst these 2 would clash. 0/10 DarkServiceShipping - Darach & Karen-Hehā€¦the name alone tho. x3 (i am mature I swear) Ok kinda random, but possible. She isnā€™t one to look down on someone due to social status. 5/10 ! DarkShadowsShipping - Ingo & Karen -Him and his bro are so easy to ship to me, and yes sheā€™d find his quirks cute while dragging him out of his shell while heā€™d keep her grounded.Ā 10/10 DarkSpecterShipping - Riley & Karen-Like ok yeah, the mysterious vibe combined with a strong goal. I can see it. 7/10 ! GigabyteShipping - Bill & Karen-idk, Karen may not be a big science person but she finds it kind of interesting to listen to. Could work. 5/10 KurumiShipping - Karen & Lisia-Comin for ya girl Wallace! Tbh tho idk because I could see them having a cute mentee relationship if Karen did competition with the twist in dynamic of her mentor being younger. As for romance 3/10 NoirShipping - Karen & Marley-Karenā€™s inner thoughts as a person. Like could work, or maybe too similar. 3/10 SeventhJugglerShipping - Juggler (Trainer class) & Karen-Lol the title tho, like seventh juggler!? Boi has no name! I mean ok, sure. I love a relationship that keeps both parties guessing, and if Karen can handle WIll I think sheā€™d be down to handle a second clown. XD 8/10
Karen w/ a minor ANIME/MOVIE npc:
BahamarShipping - Karen & Olesia-Donā€™t get at all, and I think sheā€™s barely an adult 0/10 CamdenShipping - Karen & Michelle-Would make more sense with Lance 1/10 DarkMotherSocietyShipping - Delia & Karen-Why does everyone want ashā€™s mom? Also no. 0/10 DetoxicationShipping - Karen & Sakura-Aw naw, wholesome friendship. 0/10 FavoriteShipping - Lawrence III & Karen-Karen in twist!verse, yes. A hard yes. 10/10 Otherwiseā€¦ehā€¦maybe? 5/10 GothicDJShipping - Karen & DJ Mary-Enemies 10/10, mostly Karenā€™s side. With her reporting on Karenā€™s past, and asking invasive questions wanting a scoop for her show. Romance -50/10 HazyShipping - Karen & Solidad-Sheā€™ā€˜s down to earth, and I think her groove may fit well w/ Karen 6/10 LiminalShipping - Sir Aaron & Karen-Can we please just agree this is Riley but in his mega form? 7/10 MorriganShipping - Karen & Moria-I have no idea where this one came from, and Iā€™m eh. 1/10
Karen w/ a Frontier brain:
AshikoShipping - Greta & Karen-Eh, I donā€™t see anything really 1/10 CapriShipping - Dahlia & Karen-Idk why I feel like theyā€™re the same person, but I do, and eh. 4/10 DarkLuckShipping - Karen & Lucy-Her and Brock thoā€¦also I feel like theyā€™d fall into awkward silences often. 2/10 YorShipping - Brandon & Karen-Maybe as vigilantes together, thatā€™d be a fun plot. Shipping though Idk. 4/10
TCG Characters: (All 0)
TaladasShipping - Felicity & Karen-Another news personality, but also with theatrics and I just donā€™t see it. 0/10 DarknessEnergyShipping - Mark & Karen-Not much on this guy. Itā€™s a no cause sheā€™s see him as a child, but look him up. 0/10 MoonSugarShipping - Karen & Mint-No iz too child, and also look the kid up. 0/10
OTHER MANGA Characters:
DarkGirlShipping - Karen & Rug-Turns out this is a real person, and not an actual rug. My bad. Also no sheā€™d likely take the girl in as a mentee though. 0/10 MephistoShipping - Karen & Pauline-ā€¦.eh. 1/10 RosarioShipping - Daisy (Cerulean) & Karen-I feel like itā€™s a possibility, but Iā€™m not jumping full on board. 4/10
Karen and multiple people: (All are gonna be a no romantically because I donā€™t see Karen being poly, but Iā€™ll give plot ideas)
DarkPathShipping - Brycen-Man, Grimsley, Sidney & Karen-Brycen is randomā€¦.? Unless they do a movie where theyā€™re all the bad guys and him as the ultimate villain maybe? Movie idea, 10/10.
DuskShipping - Karen, Houndoom & Skuntank-I can see Karen with a skunktank, and Garnet teaming with one for a double battle would be cool. 10/10
DystopianDarkActShipping - Brycen-man, Cyrus, Karen & Marley-Brycen-Man is everywhere with Karen, and I donā€™t know whyā€¦also sort of random combinationā€¦based on the name maybe a plot with them in a dystopian world. For some apocalypse theme plot though 10/10 Ā 
EcostasisShipping - Flint (elite), Volkner, Candice, Karen & Sabrina-So the name is about extra bone formationā€¦.people that should all join team skull? Ooooor lab experiment plot? I guess 7/10
ElitismShipping - Falkner, Morty, Will, Clair, Karen & Whitney-I feel like the title is implying them thinking theyā€™re better than everyone. I see none of this from any of these people, and am confused. 0/10
EsotericShipping - Grimsley, Sidney & Karen-YAAAAS DARK SQUAD! The name does suit them, and I donā€™t need to list any plots they easily make their own. 100/10
FrostingShipping - Dawn, Karen & Lovrina-Pulling from all the verses here, and all I see is a gal pal adventure. An odd adventure. KInda down tho. 5/10
HaremTaroShipping - Gold (Special), Crystal, Jasmine, Karen, DJ Mary & Whitney-Iā€™ve never watched the anime this one is referring to so ???/10
HeolstorShipping - Falkner, Morty & Karen-There is no meaning behind the name, but maybe theyā€™d be good camping buds. 7/10
IndigoLeagueShipping - Bruno, Koga, Lance, Will & Karen-As really super good friends, heck ye! Imagine a prank war plot now! 10/10
JohtoHaremShipping - Jimmy (Kenta), Karen, Marina (Johto), DJ Mary, Sakura & Whitney-ā€¦.Due to the title there is clearly only one intention for this, and please no. -1000/10
KinkShipping - Erika, Karen & Sabrina-If youā€™re kink is having a good time pokemon battling! Cā€™mon theyā€™d be another awesome girl squad! :D (The things I do to keep sex talk at a pg-13 level). As buds 10/10
KuroyukihimeShipping - Princess Allie, Candice & Karen-Karen would want to punt the princess. Plot of her and Candice babysitting this child, and holding each other back from strangling her 9/10
LooseShipping - Cynthia, Jessie, Karen & Misty-ā€¦As a Gal pal squad that sounds awesome, and I want them all stuck bonding in a high school detention together. You got sporty chic (Misty), Delinquente (Karen), Theater kid (Jessie), and Miss Perfect (Cynthia) 10/10

MidnightGardenShipping - Gardenia, Karen & Roxanne-I actually want them to start a gardening group that only meets at night. Sounds fun tbh, and could have some quirky fluff plots. 8/10
NewLookShipping - Elesa, Karen, Sabrina & Shelly-Them all shopping together sounds amazing. For each other would be interesting, but for another person sounds like absolute chaos, and I love it. 10/10
QuirkyMoonSugarShipping - Greta, Karen, Mint & Whitney-lot of verses here. Um yes definaley all quirky, dunno how their dynamic would be though. 2/10
ShadowedShipping - Clair, Cynthia & Karen-Again gal pals. 10/10

Karen withā€¦.Karenā€¦.????: (I had no idea where to fit this in.)
PerkyGothShipping - Karen & herself-She would know what herself needs to hear, so good, but also she likes different things, and may get bored. I suppose it depends on portrayal. ???/10
Other shipsĀ 
BlackCatDog Shipping - Karen & Nanu They were shipped for a bit and I still think itā€™s a cuteĀ possibility. If nothing else just them talking about their pasts would be interesting. Theyā€™ve both been through alot. 8/10
MoonFlare Shipping - Karen & Lysandre If I could only choose 1 ship for Karen itā€™d be this one. I just really like the parallelsĀ that they have with each other, and how both of them have compassion for the opposite sides but due to roughly a similar reason. Iā€™d have to go into alot to explain all that though. Basically I just really like how opposites attract here cause theyā€™d both have to grow. 10/10
Aqua Moon shipping - Karen & Archie Again Karenā€™s awful around water and I just think these two would have a blast interacting with each other. Theyā€™d also both be able to have serious moments too,a nd could even talk about what it was like to leave Rocket. Also I have a really awesome idea for Deity!Verse. 8/10
BlackPaint Shipping - Karen & MinaĀ  This combines Karen and art like with the Burgh ship, plus fairy shenanigans like with Valerie, and also the punk but soft vibe both of these gals bring to the table. I love it 10/10
MoonHearts Shipping - Karen & Sonia Sonia trying to figure out how to scientist, and Karen trying to figure out how to elite, and them both being dorks. I love it! 8/10
MoonHive - Karen & Professor Juniper Juniper being science nerd but also super deep and philosophicalĀ and just her and Karen spending late nights talking about anything and everything sounds cute. 7/10
NightWatchers - Karen & Looker Ye theyā€™d picker sometimes and yes Karenā€™s bar might become a problem, but what if they have to work togetherĀ and spy shenanigans ensue with these dorks insisting to themselves they need to stay professional. Cute af. 10/10
BlackSmog Shipping - Karen & TabithaĀ  Tbh I could see it. Iā€™m not as firmly sold as some others but I can see it working. Besides Karen doesnā€™t care if someoneā€™s an ex criminal or has humble beginnings. so ye could work! Although sheā€™d def want to get Tabitha to work out with her. 6/10

Okay TROS thoughts...here we go. Iā€™m putting them all below the cut in case somehow youā€™ve avoided spoilers
so general thoughts...i didnt hate it nearly as much as i thought i would so thats pleasant but im gonna break it down more
things i liked:
Adam Driver.Ā  just Adam. Fucking. Driver my dudes. This is like a backhanded compliment because JJ is so fucking lucky Adam was cast because the emotional depth of the film rested literally all on his shoulders for me. I only felt the weight if he was acting in a scene.Ā 
Iā€™ll admit im biased but I did adore the interaction between Finn and Poe. Their bickering amused me and the tenderness between them was wonderful...I think Oscar played Poe a bit jealous as well which i liked.
the Reylo scenes to me where beautiful. Ben never lied to her, she tried to deny it but she knew he never did. I loved that he was kinda guiding her, protecting her, loving her, and antagonizing her all at once. I loved how soft their kiss was, their smiles are literally the light of my life. Reyā€™s face when she healed him. Ben just staring at her as she tells him she did want to take his hand...just chefā€™s kiss
I loved the saber fights. Benā€™s fight at the beginning was hot as fuck...and his fight as newly redeemed Ben Solo was even hotter somehow.
Ā I enjoyed the fight scenes between ben and rey! how often ben just let her walk away, and despite that one scene which i will mention below...i like i even tho rey was rather aggressive idk...it didnt really feel like she was trying to hurt him much either? i just think they had a lot of chances to kill each other and didnt take it...so i like that
i knew she was looking at ben in that clip i knew it...she only makes that soft face at him
I always enjoy stupid ass C3PO jokes for some dumbass reason
Han and Benā€™s scene was heartbreaking and beautiful. Again tho JJ is fucking lucky to cast Adam cause recycling dialogue from TFA wouldnt have worked at all had Adam not been so fucking amazing
the save chewie hall blaster scene was funĀ 
i liked how fucking dramatic children ben and rey were with that damn ship lol...no im gonna force pull it...no im gonna...what dorks
while i didnt like the entire way the force bond was used i did enjoy seeing it still strong and growing
confirming canon soulmate reylo was a highlight
benā€™s hair looked bomb
finnā€™s outfit was cool
Jannah was beautiful (please correct me if i misspell her name)
dark rey was glorious thoĀ 
that new little droid is literally me so i adore it
that sith cave thing was really fucking cool lookingĀ 
the visuals of the film were most of the time stunningĀ 
sooooo...now to what i didnā€™t like:
I think this first one is the most obvious for those who know me but...Benā€™s death just feels so utterly useless to me. especially when they gave him a metaphorical death earlier in the film. i feel extremely hurt and betrayed. Disney has gone out of their way to make us sympathize with Ben Solo. Theyā€™ve revealed more and more of his past...how alone he was, the abuse he suffered from snoke and palpatine. just fuck...they just kill him...the moment he realizes heā€™s free and loved they end his life....literally WHAT THE FUCK. itā€™s a chicken shit way out of a redemption arc honestly. Not letting u just breath after his death was also so horrible. We barely got to see Rey mourn, we got a split second of it then it jumped to another scene...another second of her looking sadly at her sabor to have the moment interruptedĀ 
tag on to above but...they didnt have him as a force ghost cause Disney is intentionally keeping where he is ambiguous so they can sell more shit which pisses me off so much
thats not how the force works
there couldnt have been that many sith could there??? cause like there can only be 2 at one time....fucking rule of 2 so how the hell were there that many
palps being like...see i actually want you to kill me...is ridiculous
rey palpatine is the most idiotic thing i have ever heard. Rey being a no one from no where was such an amazing thing. Just anyone can be strong in the force...you dont need royal blood to make you worth something....then they just retcon that??? the fuck I MEAN THE FUCK.Ā 
Finn does nothing but worry about Rey the whole film. I know folks dont like his storyline in TLJ and while i understand that and do think it could have been written better i still adore it because Finn grew. He grew from just caring about a small group of people to caring about an idea to caring about something bigger than him. I didnt see any growth in his character in this film. His heroics were beautiful to see and I enjoyed seeing his heart but that was Johnā€™s acting more than the writing it think.Ā 
sidelining rose was fucking disgustingĀ 
the trio felt forced to me
the leia scenes didnt work for me honestly and they mostly just made me sad
bringing in lando now felt weirdĀ 
ive wanted force sensitive finn for a while but didnt feel right
why the fuck have finn want to tell rey something but never do...ugh i hate storytelling like that
they never explained how palps is back...he just is
rey stabbing ben felt odd to me. i loved the moment when she healed him, and i know technically her anger and darkside was coming out and she acted on instinct...nevermind that even before leia called out to him ben coudnt follow thru with the killing blow.Ā 
....iā€™m sure iā€™ll think of more as i get angrierĀ 
anyways over all...id be lying if moments didnt make me laugh or smile...if i didnā€™t feel a sense of nostalgia and enjoyment for 80% of this movie. The thing is that even with so much of it being enjoyable to me it still felt void. An action movie, with new characters, a confusing plot and very minimal emotional depth.
The emotion hinged soooo much on Adam or me. The biggest reason for that aside from that fact that Ben Solo is one of my all time favorite characters, is that the things Rey is dealing with in the film are directly related to her being a palpatine...and i HATE THAT. Like straight up wanna fling it into the sun.Ā 
Rey never needed to be related to a force royal bloodline. She should have been allowed to remain strong because she was just strong. Kyloā€™s equal in every way, not because she was the granddaughter of a sith which btw you canā€™t inherit force powers. Retconing something so touching and unique from TLJ was just...fucking idiotic. All to please the loud but small misogynistic fandom that thought a woman couldnt be that strong on her own so she must be related to someone
The biggest thing....tho is killing Ben. it felt so unnecessary and just...i feel so betrayed. The interviews leading up to the film got my hopes up that i was worried for nothing. I always thought theyā€™d kill him, because cinema seems to not know what to do with characters has tragic as him without just killing him in the end. we already got a redemption = death plotline in this franchise...why couldnt we get a redemption = life instead??? My friend who doesnt even like sw that much...tros was actually the 2nd sw fim sheā€™s ever seen...thought it was unnecessary as well and agrees with me a lot about my feelings despite not having the same intense emotional attachment to him as me. She for a moment thought theyā€™d be together at the end but nope. Its just...pointless to me now, the sacrifices han, luke, and leia made to reach Ben are for nothing. Their deaths...pointless...Ben means so fucking much to me. Iā€™ve never felt such an intense emotional bond with a character before so im just hurting so fucking much right now.
Rey taking the name Skywalker isnt hopeful or cute its a slap in the face honestly...and itā€™s just weird!Ā 
The last Skywalker died loved and held by the woman he loved and that is beautiful to me. He died happy and a hero thats a balm at least...but to not let him be the one to kill palpatine...after everything EVERYTHING he put him and his family thru was another just fuck...i wanted justice for him and he just got thrown away
Ultimately...Ben and Rey are soulmates and their force bond was severed. Palpatine didnt take that from them because he couldnt have...again not how the force works....but JJ used that bond to be a battery???? the fuck...but ultimately hes forcing Rey to live the rest of her days with a gaping wound in her soul. a wound unable to be filled and will be with her for the rest of her life...thats so fucking tragic to me. you give rey someone who is her equal, who understands her, and you take him from her and force her to be alone for the rest of her life?? and we are supposed to not see that as a tragedy? Her being fineishness at the end of the film seemed like direction from either the writing or in the moment, but just further proves he didnt bother to even understand the lore he was using. Force bonds were considered i quess legends in the current SW canon but Rian brought it back...so itā€™s back. and well
Ā  "A bond between two living beings is not something easily broken. It is not a choiceā€¦ it is like breaking a feeling. Like turning away from the Force. To break a bond, your feelings would have to change, or one of you would have to dieā€”but even then, the bond wouldn't go away, it would simplyā€¦ it would simply be empty, a wound."ā€•Master Zez-Kai Ell[src]
and .... the only way to break it was to turn away from the Force, as Surik did on Malachor V. So basically it all came down to creating a wound in the Forceā€
sooo yeah...im pissed iā€™d give this movie a 1 1/2 out of 5Ā 
thank you for those who have read my rantings! I hope at least some of this made sense

also, dumb shit iā€™ve learned during my first year on t
-i can pass most of the time except for when iā€™m at work. i think thatā€™s because customer service voice at my old job plus carryover work anxiety to my new job (i was borderline sexually harassed at my old job because i am trans, so iā€™m stealth at my new one, very anxious about anyone finding out, and VERY defensive when i get misgendered. perhaps to my detriment, but i always explain that it was theĀ ā€œrunning jokeā€ at my old job that iĀ ā€œlooked like a girl,ā€ which is as true of a story as i can make it without telling my coworkers iā€™m trans. similarly, they think iā€™m having back surgery in december.)
-the only people who misgender me now are clueless people who see me without my binder on in like dining halls or some shit and adult women. actually, the amount of time i get misgendered by women between 30 and 60 has caused me so much anxiety around that demographic that my anxiety voice has probably increased the percentage of times they misgender me. even the bro-iest of broskis apologize profusely and turn red when they misgender me. (thanks nick ur a bro, i wonā€™t drink 14 beers with u tho. maybe 2.) women between 30 and 60, or at the very least ones at my job seeing my customer-service persona? they just donā€™t seem to care, or canā€™t seem to remember. they either get defensive or give me theĀ ā€œoh youā€™re one of THOSEā€ stare. i canā€™t fucking stand it.
-on that note, i am tired of being called kira and karen. open your goddamn ears. kieran is not THAT uncommon of a name where you insist to your dull minds that a man is called kira or karen, 30-to-60-year-old-female-coworkers. jesus fucking christ on a bike. please. i am whole-ass begging you. when i spell or sound out my name for you, and you continually insist itā€™s karen, i have every right to be angry at you. i am very apprehensive around middle-aged women at my job now, which i am aware could be interpreted by them as sexist without the context for my anxiety, but the anxiety is there, despite me actively realizing itā€™s shitty and yikes-worthy. i need a fucking beard please.
-contrary to the last points, women in my own age demographic are much better than men at reading me as male. i predict that itā€™s because iā€™m not actively trying to get in their pants like most guys they interact with on a daily basis, they actually remember what the fuck my name is, and iā€™m less anxious around people my own age anyways so my voice is deeper. men my age may read me as female more because i donā€™t have facial hair and i makeĀ ā€œi hate menā€ jokes with my female friends all the time. this is all theoretical, but itā€™s interesting to realize that the gender who misgenders me more is different for different generations. is there a study on this? should i do one myself?
-on the beard note, i gave in and bought minoxidil. will it work? possibly not. do i just need facial hair like yesterday to make up for my slight bone structure and small head? yes, so i am willing to drop $23 on a six-month supply of that shit for the gamble that it will work. i frankly donā€™t care if iā€™m out $23 because of it later, at least i tried. and considering all the results iā€™ve seem from trans guys (even those who are pre-t!!) with minoxidil beards, i have faith that it will work at least somewhat well. besides, i need an excuse to take better care of my skin and stop scratching my zits open during the day. this will probably have multiple benefits.
-you know, i donā€™t even WANT a beard, i just feel like i NEED one. ideally i want like a 5 oā€™clock shadow but iā€™ll probably end up having a beard for a bit just to enforce that iā€™m male whenever my fucking facial hair grows in. i donā€™t like how this means iā€™m conforming to societal standards of masculinity, but you know what? sometimes, you ahve to do what you have to do in order to feel safe and comfortable in your own skin. being trans is like walking a tightrope sometimes. i think in general most of the trans people i know agree that gender roles are stupid, but there are enough radicalĀ ā€œfuck gender roles entirely iā€™ll do what i want who cares if i passā€ people and enoughĀ ā€œi canā€™t understand why amab trans people would want to keep their facial hair/penis or why afab trans people would still want to wear makeup and dressesā€ that i feel like iā€™m an odd one out for not agreeing with either side entirely. iā€™ll never be caught dead in makeup or a dress, but i also wear neon pink cat socks and donā€™t bind all the time. i feel like no matter what i do itā€™s still problematic to SOME trans person somewhere, and most of me doesnā€™t really care but some part of me thinks itā€™s stupid that me desiring to pass is problematic to some people or that me owning neon pink cat socks is problematic to some people. iā€™ve been distancing myself from the online trans community because of it.
-my mother and i had a talk about how she treated me during my transition, and it was a lot to handle. i donā€™t really wanna write out a whole paragraph about it right now because itā€™s still a lot to process, but i am in the process of deciding how much i want to let her back into my life or if i want to continue to keep her at a distance. i think iā€™ll have a better idea about that after thanksgiving or christmas break (sheā€™ll be taking care of me post-surgery, and she was hurt that i was afraid to ask her to - but it made sense to be afraid considering she had such awful reactions to things as simple as my name change, you know?) idk. weā€™ll see where that ends up. weā€™re never going to be close, but we may end up being less far apart.
-iā€™ve been in a depressive/executive dysfunction episode for the past like month, and not only am i failing my classes but iā€™ve been wearing the same like 6 shirts and 1 baggy sweatshirt and 4 pairs of basketball shorts. i regularly wear my shower shoes out (theyā€™re just flip flops, but still) because putting on socks takes more energy than i have. the plus side is they make me look masculine, the downside is i look like literal shit almost 24/7 and someone should really force me to do laundry. if youā€™re reading this and you know me irl, actually please text me/fb message me and yell at me to do laundry.
-all the negative experiences iā€™ve had being trans no longer make me want true trans soul rebel tattooed over my top surgery scars. sorry, laura jane grace, your music saved my life and i have failed you because i am weak and want to be stealth. maybe iā€™ll incorporate it into the t-shot date tattoo that iā€™m getting on my left thigh where i had my first t-shot.Ā 
-that being said, i canā€™t be stealth ~yet~ outside of work because too many people already know, so iā€™m still wearing the iconicĀ ā€œi have no titsā€ shirt i got from wish for a whole 71 cents plus shipping to pride next time i go. (i wear it now for fun too and it makes a pretty excellent sports bra for under The Baggy Hoodie, believe it or not lmao.)
-THAT being said, i live with three men. my roommate definitely knows iā€™m trans bc heā€™s one of the first people i came out to irl, my one suitemate might know iā€™m trans but i canā€™t remember if he remembers, and my third suitemate (who is terrible and gross and i hate living with him because he leaves rotting food in the bathroom sink) does NOT know iā€™m trans. i was in the bathroom literally topless, with a towel around my waist and a towel over my neck/shoulders (and therefore covering my titties), and he didnā€™t bat an eye. my roommate saw the two of us silently coexisting in the bathroom and tried very, very hard to stifle his laughter at the situation. next semester after i have surgery, iā€™ll probably continue doing that for a while till i heal more, but eventually just be likeĀ ā€œoh yeah i had ugly scars and now look at them theyā€™re babyā€ lmao
-yeah thatā€™s it for now iā€™ll add more if i think some
