Actually the Original Plan was for Buffy to end in Season 5, but sinister External Forces [the production company that made it and Buffy's creator and showrunner] randomly stopped that from happening [by engaging in a protracted and very public bidding war over which network would host future seasons of the show while Season 5 was still being written, which WB lost and UPN won, as a result of which the production company earned significantly more money than they had for previous seasons].

Zane... Ooooooooh boy...

I really really like the Wyldfyre shorts, they're a great way to explore Wyldfyre's grief without having to dedicate screentime from the main show.

At the same time, excuse me Wyldfyre, what did you just say he told you?

I am annoyed more so at the writers and not the character, tho his character is a close second.

The ONLY good thing about his character from Crystalized just got thrown out and into the garbage for... No reason?

And this isn't like, Wyldfyre being an unreliable narrator, because she's literally quoting him, even if it's in condensding manner, and you can't tell me Zane doesn't know the difference between Humans and Nindroids... Like- ugh...

I'm just upset, S1 of DR had his character pretty well I'd say, but S2 has just NOT BEEN IT in the slightest, they seen to be doubling down repeatedly on his robot self and not his human self, and I'm sorry but there's not even any comparison between the two when it comes to which one I like more...

Zane's whole thing was that he was a very very VERY human machine, a person even, and it seemed like he could function as a machine while still maintaining his humanity and personality.

Now, with what we've had since SotFS and now this line, it feels like that balance has completely gone out of whack, it feels like he's favouring his robot self over his human one, and there's nothing inherently wrong that.

Unless... You repeatedly literally don't do anything with his character and just keep building up on the fact that he's "Silly nice robot man :p", and especially when you use his 'Cardboard Cutout' character during the Wildbrain Era as a sort of justification for his current character state.

Mind you, that Cardboard Cutout didn't go through a single character arc up until Crystalized to justify making him feel so much more robotic, and it's hella infuriating when you remember they TRIED to give him an arc after SotFS (Tommy said that they previously wanted to have a Zane PTSD/Depression arc for Prime Empire that was scrapped).

If you can't tell, I'm not happy with his current currently in the slightest...

Fun Breakdown Fact of the Day: in an older transformers web game from the Hasbro games site, Breakdown has a boss fight where he uses a similar vibration ability to G1 Breakdown, and almost exactly the same as Wildbreak's in RID15!

woke up with this stuck in my head... it's really difficult to overstate the sheer charm in Stan Freberg's vocals. at all times, but his role as Cecil especially! i feel i toss around words like "undiscovered" or "underrated" around too much but Time for Beany really is a gem i would love to see get more love

every single CR video game one shot reminds me of Seven Words You Can't Say On Television but notably the "Sherriff? I'm gonna fuck you. but I'm gonna fuck you slow" bit.

SAG-AFTRA IS STRIKING AGAIN

This time, for video games.

Some key information:

They are striking so all performers will have protection against AI

The struck companies are those signed to the Interactive Media Agreement

The listed companies by SAG-AFTRA include Activision Productions Inc, Blindlight LLC, Disney Character Voices Inc, Electronic Arts Productions Inc, Formosa Interactive LLC, Insomniac Games Inc, Llama Productions LLC, Take 2 Productions Inc, VoiceWorks Productions Inc and WB Games Inc. Though this may not be everyone.

Important things from the FAQ:

Some games from struck companies are non-struck (due to the Collective Bargaining Agreement still being in effect)

Localisations will be affected if covered under the Interactive Localization Agreement

Actors who are part of SAG-AFTRA cannot work for non-union or independent/low-budged productions during the strike unless they are signed to an Interim Interactive Media Agreement, Interim Interactive Localization Agreement or a Tiered-Budget Independent Interactive Media Agreement

Similarly to the previous strike, struck work cannot be promoted. This includes accepting awards for performances in struck games. This does NOT include hosting/performing a skit at an awards show and San Diego Comic Con (the latter due to the close proximity to the calling of the strike)

As implied by the point above, SAG-AFTRA performers cannot partake in panels related to struck games or companies, including finished games produced by struck companies

The best way to check if a game is struck is to use the search tool provided by SAG-AFTRA

Most importantly: You are NOT being asked to stop playing video games, as highlighted in the FAQ for creators and streamers. This does NOT cross the picket line. Though please do talk about the strike and show your solidarity

I expect to see the same amount of support from y'all that we saw in the last strike. Just because it's video games doesn't mean performers deserve any less support and protection.

Also please reblog with any additions (with sources - we are NOT here to spread misinformation)! And please correct me if anything listed here is incorrect.

and the rest of the family too. he can't even yell at garp because he's one of the few superior officers smoker respects. smoker's life is just a constant aneurysm and you KNOW it's bad when the one he, a marine, has the least beef with is the fucking LEADER OF THE REVOLUTIONARY ARMY. smoker i hope your blood pressure goes down because between this and the cigars you're gonna die before you reach 40

a/n: the drabbles have a bit of extra intro cuz i yap to much but- i hope it’s okay 😮‍💨

18+ mdni! suggestive content under the cut

you have been warned

yuma - yuma was really horny which wasn’t a surprise to you both, looking forward to doing nothing but pounding you later. but to his surprise, when he got home he was brought by the news. “i’m not in the mood..” you’d bluntly let out, a clear spirt of annoyance in your tone. yuma was a bit shocked none the less, but he just layed next to you stroking your hair accepting the peace you needed. you ranted to him about the stressful day you had, and how it drained you. yuma couldn’t help but feel bad listening to the day you explained, however it only made him want to relieve you more. giving you an outlet for your stress. his little touches to your hair and shoulder relaxed you into a comfortable sleep next to him. you lied their in a sports bra and pajama pants, while he was propped up onto his elbow. watching you. “damnit.. y/n” he’d grumble to himself as he blamed you for the growing boner in his pants. the way you layed their so peacefully made it hard enough for him to control himself. your sleep revealed just how similar you and yuma really were, when you began to have a vivid dream of him pleasuring you until you were screaming his name. it sounded like the perfect way to let off the steam from the stress you felt. “yuma.. please help me..” you’d blurt, in a whiny plea. yuma’s eye widened in pure shock, before he began to laugh slightly. did she really just moan? he thought to himself. “you do look pretty tense, baby..” he said with a wide mischievous grin. he changed his position to now hover over you. instead of waking you he just pressed soft wet kisses to your exposed neck and chest. his filthy lips furthered down to the top of your breasts kissing over your bra. before his teeth nipped your nipple and you woke up, another moan escaping your lips. “yuma! what are you doing..” you’d ask in shock, your face red and blushing. the image of his body over yours his lips pressed against your skin. like he had just read your dream full of lewd scenes of him fucking you. “i’m helping.. don’t you wanna relieve yourself?” he asked with a sly expression, a smirk never left his lips. your hands snaked into the back of his nape gripping his hair. “how’d you know?..” you said in shock soon nodding as he was right. he smiled against your skin when you agreed to let him continue. he trailed kisses all over your body before finally meeting your lips and kissing you gently. his right hand however snaked between your pajama pants, and rubbed his middle finger between your folds. finding the sweet spot of your clothed pussy. your body arching up into his, a weak moan leaving your lips. yuma smiling as he sees you enjoy everything his fingers were doing to you. “i haven’t even touched you yet..” he teased, finally slipping his middle finger between your panties and giving you the feeling of skin-to-skin. rubbing against your clit in a fast circular motion. a moaning mess you became as he so easily fingered your hot and now wet slit. after he had his fun teasing you, he slipped your pants and underwear off with one swipe. once you guys were both naked he positioned himself to push inside of you. the feeling of him filling you all the way up and stretching your hole to fit him was swelling your chest in the best way possible. “yuma! please..” you whined, needing him deeper. you could see he wanted to be gentle with you at first, but you needed him. and he needed you, pushing himself fully to hit the deepest crevice of your walls. he through his head back, he was never used to the tight feeling of your cunt but he was addicted to it regardless. “baby, your so tense. let’s relax” he smirked as he teased you with a breathy voice that didn’t loose sarcasm, loving the feeling of you clenching around him. you were so lost in pleasure to pick up on his jokes. his thrusts filled you up perfectly. soon you both felt the knot deepen in your stomach. he came inside you while you wet up his dick. “fuck.. i feel so much better..” you said with a soft sigh to which yuma smiled. “glad i could help” he said with a proud smirk.

jo - you and jo were spending some time on the couch reading together. it was truly relaxing as the sun shined through the blinds blissfully. suddenly you stopped him while he was reading, “can you give me a massage?” you asked him as you cracked you neck, showing him how stiff you gotten. jo only laughed from the random request, but soon nodding quickly. jo would never say no to helping you out. you layed flat on the couch, as he straddled your back and massaging you and hitting all the tense spots. eventually you became so comfortable you fall asleep peacefully underneath him. jo didn’t realize until you stopped responding to him. he knew it relaxed you so he just continued to need your back while you slept. but he did not expect you to moan. “mm.. jo.. right there!” you moaned out. somehow the good feeling he gave you from the massage transferred into your sleep, except your dirty dream had a much different picture in mind. jo flushed a bright red, as if he was the one that made such a lewd noise. he wasn’t sure what to do at all, he froze ontop of you, double checking to make sure you were still asleep. your breath picked up and you continued to moan, and it drove him crazy. he felt bad for being so attracted to you when you did that, but he couldn’t help himself. he unintentionally began to dry hump your ass. his growing cock rocking against your cheeks. but the needing of his hands stopped, and that alone woke you up. “jo why’d you stop?” you asked curiously only to feel him rutting against you. your heart stopped and so did he noticing you had woken up. “y/n i’m sorry! i shouldn’t have—” he quickly admitted, immediately feeling all kinds of bad for being so filthy minded. getting off of you and sitting on the floor avoiding eye contact with you. however you cut him off by putting a finger to his lips, knowing he’d overthink it. “shh.. just make me feel good.. like before” you winked at him, pecking his lips. jo simply just nodded, his eyes widening in excitement. not expecting to like what he did. nonetheless he took your request and sat you down on the couch, getting down on his knees in front of you. he saw just how wet your dream had gotten you, he could only think about how badly you wanted this and he wasn’t gonna let you down. he immediately brought his warm wet lips to your throbbing pink pussy. he started to lap his tongue in your juices. his nose rubbing against your clit. your legs closed around his shoulders as you whined. it shocked you how jo was so good at these things despite looking so innocent. his brown pupils looking up at you loosing your mind with a proud smile. the sound of his tongue against your folds and your uncontrollable moans created such a pornographic scene. without warning jo slipped his long fingers knuckle deep into your cunt. dragging his smooth fingers against your tight walls that welcomed him in. “jo.. right there! yes!” you moaned as you were getting closer and closer. jo laughed as your moan was exactly the one you did in your sleep. “yeah? right there?” he’d ask against your wet clit. “or right here?” he asked teasingly when his hand curved against your g-spot. that movement alone caused you to cum all over his face. he smiled proudly getting you to feel good like you asked. licking up all your juices. “did i make you feel good?” he’d ask looking up at you. you laughed, “you made me feel great” you assured him.

harua - harua was already waiting around for you to come home, you were texting him so much dirty talk it was driving him crazy. you were on your way home from a nail appointment. and harua always seemed to be gushing over you more than usual after you got your nails done, he didn’t just like how they looked on you, but also how they felt. when you got home you didn’t see harua at first. confused you walked through your apartment and that’s when you heard the shower running. he was in the shower getting ready for you. you smiled and headed to the bedroom but as you waited for him you drifted on to take a small nap. the nail salon draining you just a bit. you started to think about all the teasing words harua said in your texts messages and it clouded your mind with the excitement of the event. unconsciously clenching your legs together. harua came out the shower seeing you lay down in the bed. he huffed letting out a huge pout. what was he to do now that you weren’t up to help him with his problem? “mm.. harua..” the noise escaped your lips. that only made harua’s problem worse. he tilted his head now brought to the attention that you were just as horny as him. he removed his towel and sat between your closed legs. prying them open with gentle touch and pressing his tip to tease your clothed pussy. you squirmed again, the friction driving you crazy as your dream now felt too real. suddenly he pushed against you threatening your hole with his member and you jolted up. “fuck!” you moaned at the feeling of him denying you his member against your pussy. “so that’s how i wake you up?” harua asked in a teasing tone. you shuddered, not wanting to play around with his sassy teasing. “shut up..” you said with a pout. “really? i know you were moaning my name. make me, make me shut up” he said with an eyebrow raise. the tension between you too exciting you both. you took the challenge pushing him to sit on his lap, he leaned against the headboard. groaning slightly from the sudden movement. you sat up on your knees in front of him and removed your clothing one by one, and he looked up at you enjoying the show. when you were finally naked your hips aligned with his hard cock. his breath hitched as he could feel your heat against his red and aching tip. you sank down on his cock, sitting down fully in his lap now. harua whined instinctively as he felt your tight walls fully surrounding his needy dick. it twitched inside of you as you tried to adjust to the feeling of him. “it’s hard to be quiet isn’t?” you teased him in the same tone he did earlier. your breath hitting his ear as you whispered next to him. his hands grabbed your hips tightly as he started to fuck up into you. “y/n you feel so good, you know how weak i am for your.. wet.. pussy” he whined, the sight was a beauty. his clouded and hazy expression while he was drunk on your tight cunt. his eyes rolling back as he was mesmerized by your constant pace to ride him. his thrusts meeting your hips every-time. “harua.. i’m.. close” you begged, the pace of your hips slapping together felt so good and you never wanted him to stop. harua nodded, “me too” he’d whine with you. his moans almost louder than yours as he was finally getting the pleasure he wanted and you were fulfilling your wet dream. when the time came you both snapped releasing together a warm and milky liquid that combined together and ran out of your body. he’d hug you tightly and whisper soft praises, stroking your hair as he knew how tired you’d be. “you should’ve waited for me to get out the shower, i would’ve been the one to fuck you” he said with a playful whisper. noticing how tired you were from riding him. his pants still consistent. you glared up at him with the same playful manner, “aren’t you glad i didn’t?”

taki - “babyyy i miss you” taki whined as he clung to you. you were sitting at your desk studying for college exams. you laughed, you were also getting pretty tired from studying. “sorry babe, i’ll be done soon” you assured him ruffling his hair. he’d pout and kiss your cheek, leaving you alone to finish studying. he came back about thirty minutes later to check on you. not expecting to see you passed out, asleep on your text books. taki laughed finding your position cute. walking over to coo you, before gently picking you up. he was gonna bring you to your bed to sleep more comfortably. once he got you settled in his arms, holding you bridal style. you slightly squirmed and he worried he might’ve woke you, thankfully he didn’t as you continue to sleep in his arms. somewhere between the transfer of bringing you to your bed you let out a noise. one that made him simultaneously confused and turned on. “taki- you’re so good..” you moaned out. surprisingly it had been a while since you and taki got busy in the bedroom, you focusing on uni and him being distracted with work. there was no time, it explained why you were having such fantasies in your dream. you sounded almost shocked when you moaned, that taki was so good at making you feel good. taki sat next to you on the edge of the bed as he contemplated what to do. taki had been missing you so much too, and every part. pretending to be oblivious his deep voice clouded the silence, “good at what?” he asked. his husky voice whispering in your ear, and tickling you with his breath. that alone woke you up from the quick sleep you drifted in-to. “taki!” you said a bit startled, since you knew exactly what you were just imagining. “you’re all wet love..” a shocked soft chuckle escaping, noticing your lounge boxers were filled with arousal that your dream provided to you. embarrassed you closed your legs. “i-i have to finished studying..” you tried to protest the very obvious fact of you being horny. taki pushed you to the bed to stop you from moving, pinning your arms to the bed. “take a break, you clearly need attending to” his eyes narrowing on your wet underwear before his lips started to kiss yours. you locked lips, unable to fight it now that he had you gripped tightly. you were glad he stopped you from studying, your pussy was throbbing and in need of him even if you were to shy to admit it. taki pushed his knees between your thighs providing you of some friction while he worked on undressing your top half. your hips started to grind against his thigh. “needy huh?” he whispered as he saw you rutting your hips against him. once he got you all naked, you helped him undress too. removing his belt of his pants and throwing it somewhere in the room. when you pulled his pants down his bulging cock sprung up at you. “i did that?” you asked him a little shocked, as a red tint of blush warmed your cheeks. he shyly nodded, resting his tip in between your folds. starting to tease you before he slid himself in. his groans and your whines sinked together the moment you felt him against your velvet walls. your eyes squinted shut, as you lied against the bed pillow. one hand gripping the sheets the other planted on his stomach tracing between his abs. “s-so.. tight.. y/n” he struggled to say, unable to make consistent thrusts yet. eventually he found his pace, pushing up in you at a fast pace that pleasured you both. every time you felt his balls slapping against your skin was a reminder of just how deep his long cock was inside you. the veins of his dick stimulating every part of you making you go insane. “taki! feels so good..” you whined, he was fucking you like never before. taki sloppily made out with you to muffle his moans into the kiss. kissing him back until he burried his face in your neck. you could tell he was getting close by the way his thrusts became irregular and his hips were twitching against you. “i’m gonna cum!..” you breathlessly announced, taki smiled as he knew he was close too. “cum for me, please, make a mess, darling” he praised you with his filthy dirty talk.

it was just enough to set you over the edge. you guys came together and his body became limp over you. you wrapped your arms around him. “better than your dream?” he asked you with a cocky smirk. you only laughed and playfully shoved him off of you.

[kingkatsuki]

The thought of having a threesome with Sakura and any of the other WB guys has me dizzy. 🥵 Imagining him being the center of attention and watching him become flustered over being kissed and touched repeatedly - you don’t even need to do much until he’s losing his mind. You’re teasingly sucking him off and tell the other guy to make out with him. He’s hesitant at first but accepts and immediately cums the second their tongues invade each other’s mouths. 🫠 And that’s only round one. 🤪

It’s the way he thinks that the focus is going to be on you, and that he’s there to learn how to pleasure someone and yet you and whoever you’re with hone in on him.

(I’m already writing a Kaji x Sakura x Reader fic right now so let me pick Togame)

You can feel how tense he is as you rub soothing circles along his thighs, stiff all the way down to the tips of his toes as he tries to stop himself from creaming his boxers. A pool of pre already darkens the fabric as it tacks to his skin uncomfortably as he shifts beneath you, and your voice does the opposite of calming him as you murmur a delicate “relax.”

It’s more lewd than anything when he watches Togame undo your bra, the fabric dropping to the curve of your elbows as his hands reach around to palm your naked breasts.

“Is this the first time you’ve seen someone’s tits, Sakura?” Togame asks. And he doesn’t even know how to answer, because he sees Tsugeura’s all the time so he has right? But somehow it doesn’t make his body feel the same when he looks up at yours, noticing the way Togame’s fingers dip into the plush of them before rolling your taut nipples between his index and middle fingers.

You’re so pretty like this, Sakura thinks, definitely the prettiest person he’s ever laid eyes on as he tries to will himself to touch you too— wishing he could reach out to touch your breasts like Togame is right now, before he settles on patting your bare knees on either side of him.

“I wanna see you kiss.” You hum, rolling your hips down into Sakura’s lap as he feels the warmth radiating from beneath your thin panties. It almost feels like it could burn him, like molten lava flowing through your veins as he finds himself bucking into your touch.

He doesn’t expect Togame to flop down beside him, and he definitely doesn’t expect him to reach out to cup his cheek and pull him into a languid kiss that’s all tongue and teeth. It’s not as nice as kissing you, Togame’s lips are nowhere near as soft and he doesn’t taste like warm vanilla— but there’s something about the way his tongue strokes against the roof of his mouth, mapping out every inch of unexplored territory that has Sakura groaning low and deep in his chest. The noise drowned out through Togame’s mouth as it gives just enough of a distraction for you to pull Sakura’s cock out.

“I didn’t expect you to be this big,” You coo gently, “You’re almost as long as Jou.”

And it’s lucky you did; because he’s certain if he’d watched you wrap your pouty lips around his cock he would’ve cum on sight. More desperate whines tumble from the back of his throat as your tongue swipes at the messy pearl of pre that beads at his tip, dragging your tongue along the length of him before starting an eager pace.

“You look so pretty when you cum, Sakura,” You smile, pressing your lips to the tip of his spent cock, “Good boy.��

Sakura expects you to stop when he cums, pulling away from Togame’s lips to watch you swallow every drop his balls have got to offer as he shoots messy ropes against your tongue— but he doesn’t expect you to venture further. Soft fingertips spreading his cheeks apart as you lick a strip along his pulsing taint, pulling more debauched noises from the back of his throat as you lay the flat of your tongue against his tight asshole.

“You like that, sweetheart?” Togame coos down at you, as Sakura tricks himself into thinking it was for him. The pet name has his cock throbbing as his hips jerk against the soft mattress.

Because he does like it— more than he ever thought was possible as you make out sloppily with his tight hole. Surprised that you wouldn’t be put off by him, or think it were dirty— but if it felt this good surely it couldn’t be bad? Although the pleasure shooting through him was becoming too much, too overwhelming.

And perhaps he could handle it. Endure the salacious touches you give him that feel like pure torture, but Togame’s wicked tongue continues talking. That lazy drawl that seems to send shockwaves directly to his cock as he explains how good you are at eating ass, how amazing your tongue feels, how much tighter your pussy is— not that Sakura needs to hear any of that, he can feel the way you tease him. The sensation has his half-hard cock standing to full attention again as the weight of it lays flat against his pelvis.

“But what about you?” Sakura manages to rasp as he watches you intently, completely focused on his pleasure.

“What about me?” You tilt your head to the side as it rests against his inner thigh and you look so fucking cute Sakura has to bite back a moan.

“You’re—” He scrunches his nose, unsure how to even phrase his question, “You haven’t?”

You slide a hand down your body as it disappears between your thighs and beneath the black panties you’re wearing as you hold two fingers up to the air. Scissoring them wide as Sakura sees the silvery strings of slick that webs between them, making his cock pulse in response.

“I promise she’s enjoying this more than the both of us,” Togame scoffed as you offered him your fingers to taste, whining as his lips wrapped around them to clean them of your essence before you moved your attention back to Sakura.

“Do you do this a lot?”

“Not really,” Togame shrugs, “Maybe once or twice with Choji, so I guess you must be special.”

Sakura’s response is practically a whimper when your tongue tries to bully its way past the first ring of muscle, bringing one of your spit-soaked fingers to his tight hole as you wiggle it inside him to the first knuckle— feeling just how tight he is, and Sakura thinks he may pass out from pleasure alone. He’s never felt like this before.

But it all becomes too much when Togame reaches out to wrap a large palm around the base of him, giving a slow teasing pump as he swipes his thumb against Sakura’s slit to collect the fresh pre that oozes out of him.

“Spit on it for me, pretty girl.” Togame coos, as he holds Sakura’s cock steady as both men watch you pout your lips and spit a glob of spit against the tip. Allowing your boyfriend to smear it along Sakura’s length as lube as the wet schlick of it begins to echo around your bedroom.

Sakura thought he was there to fuck you— and yet he’s completely succumb to pleasure as you both work him towards another climax, looking down at you between his thighs as you begin to poke and prod your tongue against his fluttering rim before asking with sugary sweetness, “So who do you want to fuck you first, Sakura?”

BOJUNYIXIAO’s Weibo Night 2024/2025 Part I 🔴🟡🟢

here we are again with the boys’ yearly same-event appearance. a tradition of sorts at this point that cpfs look forward to. It’s fun to clown and speculate on what is happening behind the scenes cause they most likely will not be in the same frame. if you wanna look back on last year’s events then go here.

i know i said this recap will be done by the end of the night but i thought about how it would be too long to read. also, this is a breather why we wait for them be onstage cause thus ceremony is too long. lol. the next post by end of day will focus more on candies that happened during the show.

I. Getting tickets and Rumors of them going

as with other wb nights, tickets can be achieved through fan voting. compared to last year that was competitive for cpfs, this one was more relaxed. or maybe fans weren’t that interested in attending. cause there was so little news if the boys will even attend the event initially. i wanna say it was a pretty good mix of fandoms on the list. for cpfs, it was the fansites dominating as usual.

by 1/8 in the morning, we saw that both of them have won awards in their respective works: Xiao Zhan for his song "wo me " as Favorite Music of the Year" & Wang Yibo for starring in the movie "formed police unit" for "Weibo's Favorite Movie of the Year"; his personal documentary "Exploring New Unknown" winning "Weibo's Favorite Variety Show of the Year". these are automatically posted by weibo via the respective accounts involved and people can see it in the voting site for the event. then in the afternoon, melons started coming out that they will be going. and this is further solidified by wb night’s teaser post that seem to allude to gg & wyb. so before announcing, wb night shares cards with statements on it. each card representing a celebrity. and here comes the hilarious part, their cards were posted side by side on 20:32 (p1). for yibo it’s a short one, i am here. which alludes to his new song. and for gg it’s smooth sailing and good health which is his wish for the new year.

then at 1/9, very early into it, the re-issued the card sets and this time the two were separated. your guess is as good as mine on why this was done. lol.

weibo night never shied away from the whole xz and wyb cp before when it was considered “acceptable”. here is an example of an actual post back in 2020 where they even used the GGDD nickname for them. at the time, it was okay cause they were the hottest “pair” with cql as a breakthrough drama. personally, i think weibo night was being very sneaky initially posting it that way. trying to drum up an audience but then so/os had to go ahead and be salty about it so it had to be split. i’m not gonna stop saying it, a reason why very little interaction is done between them — it’s partly to not upset their “fans”. it is what it is. solo fandoms in c-ent is serious business & something very understandable in an industry perspective.

but again, that’s just me and maybe cpfs reading too much into it. feel free to have your own interpretation.

II. The Official Announcement

On 1/9 at 11:30 yibo posted that he is attending the event. yibo-official also shared some reminders to not gather and disrupt public order when they go. A coincidence cause at the same time XZ posted about his Portrait magazine. which makes sense and may not be even about cpn but it’s still nice to get notifications from them on weibo 😂😂😂

Then at 15:54, XZ finally posted. XZS also came in and shared it with the reminder.

and so it was confirmed that they are both attending the ceremony. this day was also kinda busy for them cause wyb’s loewe campaign was also released and gg had his portrait magazine interview also out.

it’s safe to say that cpfs were pretty busy ^^

after that, later in the evening, their video messages were also published by weibo night. here is a combined video of that:

1/10, as expected, there was a lot of chatter on who will be attending — particularly the CPs who will be there. it is relevant in the sense that there are a couple of hot drama CPs that will be attending. but with all the polls from various blogs, the top vote is always BJYX. lol. so strong!

they are not a “CP” in that sense tho. they are real!

III. Pre Show

WYB started off pretty early by posting a teaser of his look for the night. some are saying it reminds them of what he wore for 11.11 night when XZ was also there.

There was also a video showing the seating arrangement. It appears that they only have 4 people separating them. tho it’s not a guarantee of anything but this is close! some don’t like the number assigned for yibo tho cause it’s row 2 seat 27. 227. ugh.

It doesn’t stop there tho!!!!!

there is a photothat the number was folded up so it won’t be visible. it was removed by staff (video). cpfs are crying over this cause it may have been requested to be removed by wyb due to the negative connotation. he also changed positions with LX. he really went that far! people are saying that it’s easy to change seats, so why did the number have to be torn apart? there is no need to do that. also, changing seats with LX means WYB will be away from the center so it does not benefit him. idk who gave that number to WYB, but he definitely won’t be used to bully XZ or start some bad rumor. he is truly a boss! he protects xz in ways like this. i cannot 😭😭😭😭😭

i love this comment about it: wyb is not only sitting in that position, he wants that number to disappear.

and oh, Tod’s is one of the major sponsor of Weibo Night. XZ’s ad is playing on the big screen of the venue. Will WYB see it? lol

IV. Red Carpet

WYB ( video )

I prefer this look from last year! Thom Browne is good for him. plus that cape and his hair 🫶🏼 i would have loved it if he participated with what they were doing in the carpet and did the interview, but weibo is trash so i guess it’s okay. lol.

red carpet photoshoot

RED! it’s his color! plus some sparkles. this one is a custom look from GUCCI. i’m kinda bummed out that he did a group red carpet. i think they are the guest of honors and weibo’s way of getting a top hot search. but he still shined! he was so tall!!!!!!!

i’m gonna put this candies here cause they seem to be “red carpet related”. but i’m really cackling over how we manage to put their outfits together as “marriage” outfits once more 😂😂😂😂 lol. cause xz is in red and wyb in black.

some are also curious about gg’s huge ass ring. 👀 ( it’s by boucheron tho )

and the hot search related to xz is whose groom is he but of course there is only one answer. it’s wyb. lol. please stop giving us ammunition to watch! y’all know cpfs are so ready today!

-END (ish) to be continued. ☺️

sorry if this is a dumb question and i understand if you don't want to answer but do you have links to posts explaining why israel isn't an apartheid state? i swear i read posts like that on your blog before but i don't know how to refind them

Israeli Arabs have legal equality with Jews. Same restaurants, same pools, same seats on the bus, same voting rights. I would favorably compare the treatment of Israeli Arabs with that of any minority group in any country on Earth.

The West Bank has a military occupation, with (pretty fast) checkpoints and no right to vote about the government running that military. Military occupations are bad and some of us have been against this particular one for decades. The anti-occupation movement hasn't gotten anywhere, they've just been stuck. Being stuck in a military occupation for X more years doesn't make it apartheid, just like being stuck in a bad marriage for X more years doesn't make you divorced. Meanwhile, the 2020 Abraham Accords showed that multiple Arab states were willing to accept this unchanging status quo and deal with Israel as it is. Those two factors - the stagnant, unchanging nature of the occupation, and the clear loss of interest in the Palestinian cause - combined to have the latest crop of awareness-raising college interns at some shifty NGOs try to force change by abracadabra'ing together a new concept of "apartheid" that exists solely for Israel. And it is working, just like "Christ-killer" and "stabbed Germany in the back" worked.

In 2010, Human Rights Watch published an extremely critical report on Israel's occupation of the West Bank. Dragged them up one wall and down the other. Yet there was no accusation of "apartheid" there. In the report, page 33, they cited a lawsuit by the Association for Civil Rights in Israel that had said it was apartheid for the West Bank military occupation authorities to ban Palestinians from driving on Highway 443 after repeated firebombings / shootings against Israelis. The Israeli High Court ruled that it was inappropriate to ban Palestinians from the road, and it re-established their equal driving access - they have had it ever since. The court also said that the accusation of apartheid behind that now-ended ban was dishonest, because the security concerns were not based on race; there were and are no "Jewish-only" roads anywhere, even when WB Palestinians were denied road access, Israeli Arabs could and did drive there. The HRW 2010 report included a long summary of that finding, without challenge. As bad as they saw Israel, they agreed it wasn't apartheid.

Then in 2020 came the Abraham Accords, so while nothing at all had changed in the administration of the West Bank, in 2021 HRW said it actually was apartheid. It really is that simple. The most famous legal convention banning apartheid specifies that it is race-based. HRW instead went with a different legal convention on apartheid, one that says it could be based on national origin if it involves discrimination among citizens of the same country.... and then they up and added their own twist to that, saying they will consider it apartheid if there is discrimination based on national origin AMONG PEOPLE WHO AREN'T CITIZENS OF THE SAME COUNTRY. In a very real sense, HRW declared Mexico is an apartheid state because Americans can't vote in its elections.

In 2022, Amnesty International followed with their own report, saying that not only was the military occupation now "apartheid," but that Israel itself had been an apartheid state ever since it was established in 1948. This moral perversion had the effect of saying Israel literally INVENTED apartheid since in May 1948 it didn't even exist in South Africa yet. It also said that Amnesty International - founded 1961 - had been looking at an apartheid the whole time but never recognized it. To make things even more dishonest, Amnesty said they "are not claiming Israeli conditions are analogous to South Africa," meaning anything that shows how Israel is different from South Africa doesn't count. They're using the South African word for the South African policy but it's actually not like South Africa at all so be quiet, neener neener no backsies.

I shouldn't have to take that seriously. Neither should anyone. Palestinians and their advocates should be ashamed to have to lean on such an obvious bad-faith lie.

Nelson Mandela, who died in 2013, never once accused Israel of apartheid, and instead repeatedly said he supported Zionism and a 2-state solution. Mandela's lawyer, still alive, says the accusation is a lie. Mansour Abbas, leader of the Arab Islamist party that joined Israel's governing coalition in 2021, says the accusation is a lie. And if people want to bandy around NGO business cards, here is the International Committee of the Red Cross in 2017:

“The Red Cross was very familiar with the regime that prevailed in South Africa during the apartheid period, and we are responding to all those who raise their claim of apartheid against Israel: No, there is no apartheid here, no regime of superiority of race, of denial of basic human rights to a group of people because of their alleged racial inferiority. There is a bloody national conflict, whose most prominent and tragic characteristic is its continuation over the years, decades-long, and there is a state of occupation. Not apartheid.”

There's a lot more you can see about the shifty terminology, unreliable sourcing, and longstanding culture of antisemitism and racism within Amnesty International. People who can cite chapter and verse of why the Salvation Army, Autism Speaks, Chik-Fil-A and Harry Potter are problematic should not be shocked.

Time displaced rocks see that wb had gotten EVEN BIGGER than last time he saw him

shanksmarco is so criminally underrated these dudes have known each other for a minimum of 30 years (potentially up to 38) and there's so much history contained in them just by dint of having sailed with roger and whitebeard, and unlike some of the other prominent shanks ships, they actually um, seem to like and respect each other

i'm pretty sure shanks has had more interactions with marco than he has basically any other character, they're constantly in and out of each other's orbits, doing each other favors, they're relatively close in age, have a decent overlap in their social/friend circles and shanks has invited marco to join the RHP two out of the three times they've met.

shanks spent at least two weeks with the WB pirates after marineford, escorted them back to the new world... when he came around after wano marco (a guy who doesn't seem to accept favors easily) just decided that shanks would be the perfect chauffeur to get him back home ???? i'm still waiting to find out what the HELL is going on with those two, but what we DO know is that shanks is simping for marco 24/7 and there's probably a good reason. for that. and marco, who is so polite and kind to everyone else, is friendly enough with beck for both of them to gang up on and tease shanks???

every one of their interactions screams that they've known each other for a long ass time and there's such a level of comfort and familiarity between them that at the very least you'd expect to see more about them in the fandom even in a completely platonic sense and yet!!!

Sooo i was the one who requestet the flower/ gift think and it turned out so good! Better then i could have imagined, thank you!

You wouldnt mind writing for kiryu too would you? Its fine if you dont want to but he's my favourite of WB and i wouldnt mind you taking your time ♡

Gifts - kiryu x reader

Note: hi ! No problem !! It's my fault for not sticking to my usual set list. Don't hesitate to mention if you want a character in particular ♡ I'll do other of i feel like it but I want to make it with your fav. I'm happy you liked it ♡

The second you mentioned it, the idea bloomed into his mind. He knows how to be with you so when you mentioned that you were going to try a new recipe : he knew it was his time.

You always want to know what he thinks about it, and so all the boys around him by extension. But this time he told you that hell passed by to try them, which isn't usual but not a surprise either. So you didn't mind.

Your mom opened the door for you when you heard the bell ring, since you were still busy, before leaving you two alone in the kitchen. You couldn't wait for him to taste it. You were sure that it would be perfect this time.

"Hey !" His voice behind you made you jump a little even if you were waiting for it, but in a good way.

You turned around with a big smile before it fell into a puzzle expression. Then you covered your mouth as you gasped, not fully realizing what was happening.

Kiryu was standing in front of you, a lazy yet satisfied smile on his lips as he handed you a small bouquet of fresh flowers. It didn't take him long to notice the tears in your eyes and before you could even say anything, he was holding you close.

"Don't cry even if it's from happiness, it's only normal for me to do that." He reassured, before you could even argue and shut you down for sure with a kiss.

"Just accept it. And let me try that new recipe, it's already my favorite cake." 

Let me know if you liked it !

Reblog are appreciated ♡

Just got to the point in Twig where Jessie cones out to Sy and it's one of the best scenes WB has written tbh. I also like how wyvern makes it so Sy has no problem readjusting and accepting Jessie's new pronouns.

Twig is really good ya'll
