I just read a pilot for a TV show that two incredible people are trying to get made and HOO HOO! OH HOH! I can't tell you who either of them are or what the show is about but DAMN! I hope this gets made! I hope I get to be in it! HAHA, EXCITING! SICK, EVEN!
#one of the cool things about being in the acting industry is getting to see all the cool stuff that people *want* to make#before it gets all its edges sanded off in development to make it more commercially appealing#I get to read some raw uncut scripts#And be like OOOOOO oh my gosh imagine if this actually got MADE#before all the cis gatekeepers say “Hm but does the trans villain need to be quite so aggressively trans? Is this alienating people?”#YES IT IS AND IT RULES

constantly thinking about the PERFECT setup supergirl season 1 had to make kara queer;
"oh my god, you're a lesbian" – winn to kara, in the very FIRST episode.
"hell, i wanna date her" – kara, about lucy lane.
"she does kinda give off a sapphic vibe, with that big old butch S chestplate" – leslie willis (livewire) about supergirl.
there were so many other instances in s1 alone, let alone in later seasons when lena showed up (recounting every queer-coded supercorp interaction would require a whole podcast). it was the PERFECT pretext to make her even just a little bit fruity, but the cw just couldn't handle it i guess
#QUEER kara danvers#because i said so#i'm rewatching s1 rn and it's insane how much queer coding they had weaved into the show's core#only for the cw to take it and do absolutely nothing with it#this is my villain origin story#i'm a supercorp shipper first and foremost but i really can't resist a good supercat or supergirl x livewire fic#the sapphicism was just perfect in s1#cat grant owner of catco also known as owner of my ass#i get the appeal behind the supercat ship i really do#cw supergirl#supergirl#supercorp#kara danvers#kara zor el

shigadabi x yn
dabi jokingly buying flowers from yn's shop every week to mess with shigaraki, only for shigaraki to track down yn's shop, demanding to know who sent them. you tell shigaraki and you hear nothing.
until the entire league shows up to make a birthday bouquet for toga. shigaraki says it's bcs "the flowers are cheap and they're close enough" but him and dabi rlly know it's bcs they both think yn is pretty and yn wasn't scared of them despite being known criminals.
i have no idea where i'm going with this. they're just losers who randomly get yn to date them.
Omg cute 🌼🌸
#as someone who works in a flower shop this appeals to me specifically lmao#thanks for the ask 🖤#bnha#boku no hero academia#my hero academia#mha#league of villains#shigadabi#bnha x reader#mha x reader

I used to dislike Lazarus Pit Madness headcanons but I've seen people say "he doesn't need magic madness he has normal madness" and "why would you need a magical explanation for his behaviour have you people never heard of cptsd" and while I understand the sentiment (and Jason definitely has cptsd) this is exactly what I'm talking about when I say dc has a dangerous habit of demonizing/villanizing mental illness and it has a real impact on the fandom's perception of mental illness. Winnick isn't the worst when it comes to Jason's writers but the fact that he wrote Jason as both a brilliant hypercompetent villain and a sympathetic character that makes you go "oh hey, he has a point..." should not distract you from the fact that no, decapitation is not a common symptom of cptsd.
#i told myself i'd let it go because I understand the annoyance with the idea of the pit madness#and the points that were made to a certain extent#but i keep seeing it and it's so frustrating#i just had a conversation with a friend the other day who said “oh i never thought about it like that”#“to me it's fine if they don't have accurate depictions of mental illness because it's just comics it doesn't have to accurately depict life#“it's not gonna have an impact”#but then i log in and it visibility has had an impact if people are saying that#and i understand the appeal of jason as a villain#no hate to the fans#this is clearly on dc. they have a responsibility.#also fucking kill the joker omg#dc critical#jason todd#jason todd deserves better#tw psychophobia#red hood#under the red hood critical#i still think red hood jason is a fascinating character#and he does have cptsd#but it's a villanized/demonized depiction of it and we should acknowledge that

idk i feel if u ship tomura w ur oc or a canon character n solely reduce him to his skin condition or his fandom version to boost the other characters up, purposely to make them look better n to make it seem like tomura could never bag a conventionally more attractive/interesting/appealing person. then fuck you?
#esp if ur still making crusty jokes abt him next to a more ‘conventionally appealing’ character#not only is it rooted in ableism n desirism#ur shallow as hell actually#like why even bother being tomura into ur stories/fics at all if ur solely reducing him to his skin condition that ACTUAL PEOPLE DEAL W#n his behavior from when he was being fucking groomed#like i fucking hate that n I don’t fw yall at all#‘pretty’ oc x gremlin incel tomura is so PLAYED OUT#sick of seeing that all the time esp in y/n fics#shigaraki#tenko shimura#league of villains#tomura shigaraki#shigaraki x oc#shigaraki x reader#yall r fake tomura lovers fr 😭‼️

diavolo is a difficult character to work with in general when it comes to fanon (particularly mixing/matching him with other characters). even i have trouble really imagining it beyond shitposts and like... random death loop scenarios. not much you can do with a character whose main thing is "avoids everyone" while keeping it from feeling off in some way
#rambles#it's also a big part of what makes him incredibly interesting as a character to me lol#part of why a lot of diavolo fanon tends to lack appeal for me personally#i see all those jojo villain roommate AUs and i can only look at the diavolos and go ''ok but he wouldn't do that''#i think the most accurate roommate diavolo (sans doppio) to me is a diavolo that locks himself in his room all day and exits out the window#and nobody in the house ever sees him despite them all knowing he's there at least#his only tells are that food seems to disappear when no one is looking and sometimes the furniture looks a bit shuffled every morning#diavolo jjba#vento aureo

Shen Jiu, if he was actually a competent shizun
My HC for how Shen Jiu is like with kids without trauma/healed trauma and shit: Honestly with a person like Shen Jiu, I can only see his interactions with kids going one of two ways, him being so very fond of them, and ofc, how he's like in canon. Ok look, in the third book under Shen Jiu's character description, it said that Shen Jiu definitely had more reasons to relate to Luo Binghe than to hate him yet he still chose violence for some fucked up reason. So yes, I for one headcanon that when he's in a better place mentally, he would choose to be doting and fiercely protective. We've seen that he's capable of being like that with Ning Yingying (and Qiu Haitang), and it's not outwardly obvious, but we can see it with the way she behaves around Shen Yuan when she thinks that's still Shen Jiu. She definitely acts like a spoiled younger sister/daughter who looks up to her guardian and shows a great amount of trust in him. So just imagine if that was extended to all of his disciples.
No coz if he was spared enough kindness for him to actually want to do better, he would choose the first option and emphasize with LBH instead BECAUSE smn gave HIM a chance and emphasized with HIM. LBH and SJ are parallels, and so whatever happens to SJ, it would be reflected onto LBH.
I am dead. I am so dead. I'm bleeding out so fast and goddammit it HURTS- SJ and LBH's whole story hurts sm.
Anyways-
I kinda like to imagine that when Shen Jiu's heart settles on the fact that maybe, just maybe, bleeding on ppl who didn't cut him and taking his hurt out on LBH is a no good very bad idea, he's going to end up over compensating for his whole fucking childhood and the way he projects on him is completely flipped.
"I'm going to treat you the way I wanted to be treated and ur going to feel loved and safe do you hear me?!?"
"Yes shizun (*^v^*)"
Here's the thing, he may be fond of his disciples, but he is still shit at taking care of them. He was robbed of his own childhood, so he doesn't know what normal kids act like in the first place. And he has no idea what the typical stages of development are and he would totally underestimate how dumb kids who didn't grow up like him would be. So yeah, shit at babysitting but loves them anyhow, for the same reason he would hate them in canon. (They remind him too much of himself). Idk, him being bad with kids regardless of trauma is so funny to me.
That moment when it clicks for him that he may not hate them after all: "oh gods these brats actually like…me? Me? Fuck what the hell do I do?! This is why no one should trust me with kids Aghhhhh!! Still think they're brats tho :( but they're my brats >:) "
He'd be like Shifu from Kung Fu Panda as a shizun. He's strict, harsh as hell and shows no mercy when training, coz becoming a cultivator/martial artist is fucking hard and requires alot of discipline anyway. So he really is doing his best to make sure his disciples come out on top. Shen Jiu is a prideful person by nature, it's just that his disciples are his pride. He's always there for them when they need him, and he will make sure that none of his disciples will ever have to go through anything he has. He wants to be the reliable adult that his disciples seek out. (He will never let it be known that he seeks his disciples' approval and validation as much as they seek his.)
Really fucking specific but idgaf. My social teacher brought chocolate bars to class and gave them out one time. After a few moments she asked if everyone was enjoying themselves. After she heard us agree she went on a lesson about slave labour and the production of goods in underdeveloped countries. Shen Jiu. Would do this. Because he’s a madman.
And Binghe. He would still end up a little unhinged. Like sure being under a master that abuses you will fuck you up one way but if you had a guardian who will start genocides and watch cities burn for you… It does things.
Shen Jiu is morally ambiguous as fuck and that rubs off onto his disciples. He is still a terrible role model, but his kids wouldn't trade him for the world:)
Would be the type that gives 5 yr olds knives for birthdays, bc he had a shit ton of them hidden away on his person when he was that age and knew how to use them when he was on the streets.
“What? It's an appropriate gift! The kid needs to have smt to protect herself! Yeah I know she didn’t grow up on the streets so what? No need to rub it in. Ok fine! I’ll teach her then just shut up. Let’s go Yan-er, some people just don’t appreciate the value of giving practical gifts WAIT PUT THAT DOWN-”
Is this lowkey self indulgent? Yes. Do I particularly care? No. I just want my favourite blorbos to be happy, is that too much to ask for? My Roman Empire is that SJ probably could've been a crazy good shizun if he had a chance to heal. If you've read The Hidden Flower, then you know exactly what I mean.
I already made a post with all of the soft BingJiu fics ik. I could literally make another one rn where they're just chilling platonically, or even as an adoptive family bc I have no chill like that and read all the SJ fics there is to read.
It's already summer and all I have going for me is my job rn and I am sooooo close to going through all nearly 400 pages under the SJ tag coz I simply can.
#shen jiu#original shen qingqiu#og shen qingqiu#sj#lbh#i have no chill for these 2#there is smt so therapeutic abt seeing ppl break cycles yk#i get the appeal of him not breaking the cycle story-wise but it still sucks that he wasnt able to :(#scum villain#scum villian self saving system

Wait people actually think William has a sad backstory to explain why he kills kids? Literally the only semblance of a canonical motive he had is being jealous of Henry and liking the power he has over his victims in the tse trilogy (which is 50/50 on being canon to the games). Anything else is just a theory. People know this right?
#it’s like#a majority of his appeal as a villain#it also makes him fun to project headcanons on and theorize about#like even with my theories I look at canon and go ‘yeah this didn’t happen but I like to think it might’ve’#fnaf#william afton
