Okay okay okay fic idea where it's a Arthur returns au where he climbs out of the lake the exact person who died all those years ago except that everyone else (bar Merlin ofc) has reincarnated Everyone else are completely modern in the way they talk and interact with the world and Arthur just has to take that in stride

Anyway all of this to say that I had a vision of Uther with recently returned memories like, "let me get this straight. You got married to a women and STILL never had an heir? I should have known letting that treasonous twink into our household was a bad idea". Shakes head, deeply serious. Like the complete vibes of the behind the scenes pics of Uther doing modern things but Arthur is basically having a huge culture shock every time the man opens his mouth and everyone else is unhelpful bc they're just laughing hysterically

Modern Uther reading Arthur to filth and revealing everything about how he always knew Arthur liked men with the utter shamelessness of the average modern parent (fairly cool with it but WILL say some off color things) and teasing Arthur for being too chicken to make a move on someone that literally everyone assumed he was already bedding

IDK if literally anyone else would find this funny but I just would love to see Arthur dealing with everyone he loves being ever so slightly different in the way they talk and act and sometimes it's like they're all in on a joke that he doesn't understand... Maybe I just take joy in seeing Arthur get shaken up a bit actually 😂 love when he gets blushy and embarrassed

modern au and esen’s honkers are haunting the instagram feed

#id in alt text #yea this was inspired by That watermelon smashing vid #if u don’t know what i’m talking about you’re living a more peaceful life than i am #at first I was like hm maybe this is a bit too ooc for ouyang #then I remembered the 'doEs GeNerAL Xu pLAY thE FLuTE???' and I was like nah ok it checks out #no filter & accidentally revealing how much of a gayass he is is how he rolls #also rip Ma she's just trying to hang out with her boygf and that hideous Pest that Wretched Thang that useless twink #just manifests wherever zhu is and ruins the mood #she deserves to hatecrime him as much as possible #also I don't think esen is 100% aware he's posting blatant thirst traps. his insta is mostly pics of his horses and his beautiful eagle #then one vid of him doing mounted archery that breaks the internet for 3 weeks #rinse and repeat #also yeah wang's special skill is starting shit in the comments section #he would absolutely thrive in the toxic waste that is social media fights #ty for reading this far. more unhinged takes at 5 #esen-temur #zhu yuanzhang #ma xiuying #general ouyang #the radiant emperor #she who became the sun #he who drowned the world #my art

“You’re so Curly-coded :3”

The internet either wants me dead, violated, or loves me, there is no in-between. Either a compliment or insult depending on how you interpret the character, either way you’re exploding.

#spaghetti speaks #Mouthwashing #Mouthwashing curly #curly mouthwashing #my friend tells me this frequently- I take it as compliment but out-of-context it can seem like not a good thing #I usually joke “damn half the internet must hate me then”#some would probably take it as “you are unhelpful and unaware of danger”#some would take it as “you’re trying your best and try and please to a fault”#some would take it as “you are just as bad as the people who cause harm”#some would take it as “haha EXPLODE”#I don’t know; I think about it sometimes #All the ways it could be interpreted with and without context #then again; I think I project A LOT #Maybe because I’d been in a situation in which emotional manipulation/abuse occurred; I can understand the thought processes and flawed-#-justifications someone can concoct when stuck in a relationship like that #Btw he’s not a “rape apologist” that implies he knew and tried to actively defend it- he never once does- but that’s a differentconversatio #what my friend tends to mean by it (I think) is wanting to please others and being paranoid of upsetting people #+just finding aspects of appearance that match (hooded lids+pointy nose+lip dip+etc)#and just being an insomniac who zones out without warning #I don’t know #I don’t know why I made this post lol

I NEEEED people—especially those with unfathomably large platforms???—to start doing just a tiny bit of internal evaluation before they log onto a blue website and say “I don’t want these queer characters to fuck in canon” or “I’d be fine if these characters never kissed again” or whatever.

This is a post about Good Omens and the prospect of Aziraphale and Crowley potentially having sex in season 3. It's a response to a tweet that I'm crossposting, but let it be known the above statement and this topic applies broadly across multiple fandoms too.

But anyway, in regards to Good Omens specifically:

I am seeing this take that essentially boils down to "Canon has now made it clear that these characters want to have sex with each other through subtext (i.e. Aziraphale and the ox), but I don’t want that to reach narrative completion because the idea of them having sex makes me uncomfortable or isn’t my personal preference” and it is, to put it mildly and delicately, A Very Bad Take.

This is rhetorical (and I do not expect or particularly want an answer), but: explain to me how and why queer characters who are unavoidably visibly queer (aka 2 "man-shaped beings") fucking on screen wouldn’t be a net positive, especially when you can indicate how canon has set it up.

Presumably, some people say things like this because ~they want to see them as visibly ace.~ Okay. But by some of these people’s own admission, there IS more evidence in canon now to indicate these characters crave sex with each other (vs arguing otherwise)... yet people would rather that be ignored/erased all for the sake of them feeling comfortable or feeling better about what canon shows or doesn’t show explicitly??

I’m sorry, but—speaking as an ace person, to be clear—your personal preferences for the story shouldn’t / don’t affect anything here. There’s too much in this.

Yeah, I understand on a personal level not having “representation.” I almost never see myself or my unique experiences and identity reflected in stories. And yet, I also understand that that doesn’t change any story or the world in which we live. Things like this are not said in a vacuum.

Any queer characters having sex on screen IS a net positive. It is rare and impactful, and openly calling for or hoping for otherwise when canon points to its potential is a detrimental alliance with purity culture, whether intentionally or accidentally. Because we live in a Goddamn society!

Who knows (other than Neil Gaiman) whether Aziraphale and Crowley ARE going to fuck on international TV. None of us do! But the subtext right now blatantly says they’re starving for it. And you don’t have to like the prospect of that, but honestly? We SHOULD get to see it play out. There’s no truly legitimate reason we shouldn’t ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Whether you "prefer" it or not.

And my ultimate hot take is… if someone balks at the idea of that or doesn’t understand the importance of it, despite even seeing the subtext… then they should perhaps unpack that? Just a thought.

Truly the way fandoms are managing to hit either “subtext doesn’t count :/ ” or “let’s keep it to subtext so it’s ‘open to interpretation’ :) ” nowadays depending on what corner one visits is MADDENING. Whiplash-inducing. Surreal. And so much nonsense you can’t pick where to start.

So! I do genuinely hope I'm not kicking off discourse but I felt this Needed To Be Said (and on more than one site). Because posts like “even if they never kiss again, we’ve won <3 “ make me want to be like…

These characters are YEARNING. Do not doom them and us to it. For once, we can reach for the stars and maybe–against all odds–pull them down. Embrace it!

---

[Update: after more discourse has occurred, I have somewhat elaborated on this further, from the POV of the significance of the queer themes in Good Omens and more specifically how they center illicit pleasure/desire]

#good omens #good omens season 2 #good omens spoilers #good omens season 3 #neil gaiman #aziracrow #ineffeble husbands #I'm OVER ITTTT.#this is the delicate version of this rant. trust me. I tried to keep it chill for the sake of posting on main #char writes things #PS adding some brief tags now that the discourse has Escalated:#Mr Gaiman can be pedantic on the internet and pretend by omission he's never heard of subtext all he wants.#it's not what his story is saying and I do actually think he DOES know how to do stories. so. love & light to whatever his deal is.#(what I mean: do not come into my house & try to say 'neil said the ox scene isn't sexual.' inaccurate + that's a whole suitcase to unpack)#(I have now written about All That at length elsewhere with exasperation but it doesn't need to be linked in this post lol.)

Spoilers for Sinsmas/Sinsmas ramble

So I had Sinsmas paused on my browser to do life stuff as usual, I Will Be Okay was in my head, and I walked back to my computer after life stuff and realized the frame I had it paused on was

D

Do you see what I'm seeing

Their positions aren't just similar, they're reversed. In "I Will Be Okay", Via is on the floor and Stolas's shadow is standing up, looking down on her and reaching a hand to her from above, which she swats away. At the end of Sinsmas, Stolas is kneeling on the floor, with Via looking down at him from above, and her hand resting on Stolas's, which she pulls away from.

AND THE PARALLELS AND REVERSALS DON'T END THERE

From what I could see, it seems like there's only one instance where the parallel doesn't totally apply.

This.

Merry Sinsmas, Helluva Boss fandom :D

:'D

#helluva boss #sinsmas #hb spoilers #rambles #ramble #hi fandom this is my first time in these parts please be nice haha ^^'#i love parallels guys #hb storyboard artists you MASTERMINDS /aff #as someone who at most just looks at the analysis videos and has absorbed the goings-on through internet osmosis #the emotions still hit very hard for this episode #which is also the first one i watched in full as opposed to just going to certain clips to see what the fandom is frothing in the mouth ove #hot take: via has the right to be mad at stolas. but stolas also deserves to (and SHOULD) have a moment to explain to her everything #now stolas in mastermind put himself on the chopping block after confessing which is the most blatant “yes i am ditching my life for an imp #and is very much breaking the promise he made to her in loo loo land the instant it was tested #so yes via has every right to be mad in this regard #but #she's also very deliberately being kept out of the loop with everything going on with her family and it's biting her in the ass #she probably knows her parents hate each other but does she know that stella hires hitmen to kill stolas like on every day ending in y?#does she know that the reason they got together in the first place was just because they needed a precautionary goetia heir?#does she know that their wedding anniversaries are “not divorced” anniversaries in every sense of the word?#does she know that stella never plans on having her fulfill her purpose as a goetia #because she and andre want stolas's power like flies want shit and are going to hog that power for all it's worth?#probably not #stella wouldn't bother telling her about it because she doesn't really care for her much (just the perks of having her on her side)#(i mean c'mon “the egg that came out of me” and “his daughter”?)#and stolas didn't want to tell her the full extent of what he had to go through because he wanted via to have a normal childhood #meaning he wanted to fill the role of the ordinary loving father with no issues and no happy pill abduction whatsoever hahahahaaawhosaidtha #so he didn't want to worry her with his issues when she is still growing and that shit is too much for a little child to process #but with via's eighteenth birthday coming soon and stella and andre being even less subtle about their.... their EVERYTHING #maybe via will begin to get a peek into everything underneath the surface and maybe understand a bit of what stolas had to deal with

New OCs

(briefly, humans and supernatural beings have to team up for building better relations with each other and all the supernaturals can shapeshift and take on human appearances but also have their 'original form'.)

OK so I was GOING to draw fanart today - I had a fun idea and everything! But health anxiety (and anti-anxiety meds) wore me out so I kinda .... slogged through OCs as a treat to me. I am going to go to the doctor tomorrow so HOPEFULLY it's all okay.

#my characters #also kite is the worst socially and says things he thinks are surely fitting for a human conversation #but ends up insulting grady with 99% of the comments and that makes grady not fond of him #but then grady is like super pleasant to others and doesnt know how to act around kite and flubs a lot too #its a disaster and the twins are like oh no this is painful #mr tengu that was so tacky you cant say that to a human #mr tengu you cant DO that to a human STOP BEING LIKE THIS #while callum is just like wow this is hilarious thanks for bothering my younger brother its adding character to his life #and kite is stressed because thats the least encouraging thing to hear ever thank you v much hes TRYING to adapt #but also kite isnt his real name and he doesnt know squat about humans BUT he knows they have the internet #and so hes like well the problem is i dont want to actually say my name to you all because what if i am Online (TM)#and so he asks for a new name and then is like he should name me - the tiny one who wants to kick my ass should name me #so grady is like ....... nooooo...... dont............ and then suggests kite bc he's done google research #and kite is a type of bird and according to wikipedia has some familiarity to tengu so therefore yeah #and kite is like !!!!!! DOES HE ! KNOW THINGS ! and happily accepts the slightly researched name while the other humans #are like grady stop that is bullying the poor guy leave him alone pick a normal name!#anyway not drawn yet but there is a human guy partner for the twins and he immediately is like perfect #i know which is which lets go out and explore the human world for your research #and they dont understand how he knows them apart so fast and none of the other humans seem to tell em apart #but then none of the humans are shocked at the guy who knows so the girls are like sir howst do you know #and hes just v casual oh right yeah younger identical twin sisters - i have Practice ! and they are endeared to him haha #anyway if you read all those tags ty #and yes in his tengu form he does actually have the long nose please do not be mad #i just dont draw noses normally and im too tired to practice rn so #i only drew the second one today anyway - the first pic was done a couple days ago but i didnt wanna post on main #but then here i am posting on main #im sorry

still one of my favourite bat interactions lmao kuukou treating jyushi gently and then teasingly threatening hitoya with ✨murder✨

#this is vee speaking #*crying* i have been wanting to reshare this clip for a week now but couldn’t bc i had no internet BUT I DO NOW LETS GO 😭😭😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌🙌#lol i don’t bully hitoya as relentlessly as i used to and that’s bc the narrative does it for me now #but i remember thinking when this first dropped that the reason i probably like bullying hitoya is because kuukou himself enjoys it LOL #i like seeing the various ways kuukou uses physicality to get his affection across lol #i also think about this scene when i’m thinking about kuukou’s mastery over his body/strength lol #like when bat first gets together jyushi passes out from kuukou’s bars and hitoya scolds kuukou for it #and kuukou replies he’s not skilled enough to know how to hold himself back #and this scene shows exactly what he means he’s not skilled enough to hold back lol #kuukou constantly trains himself so he knows his limits strengths and weaknesses #kuukou’s flexing that strength against hitoya for funsies lol but he knows how to stop himself from actually harming him #lol i also like to compare this scene to a panel in the tdd manga where kuukou is just slapping the shit out of ichiro’s back #and it’s a friendly gesture lol but ichiro grumbles kuukou’s using too much strength #kuukou using that much strength tho is him knowing ichiro can handle it lol i like that they’re twin physical monsters #remember when the both of them physically chucked a huge ass man with one hand lmao

little bit of modern au (SPOILERS for the zelda game.)

#witch hat tag #orufrey #zelda totk spoilers #thus ends the orufrey playing on their switches saga. oh modern au...the place where everything is pretty much ok. Yes i have joycon drift.#hey literally why do ppl leave private replies on twt. not priv qrts. that's like..fine. Whatever. but priv replies...who r u talkin to.#once i posted a comic about writing that went REALLY far before i deleted it and got 400+ qrts and someone left a string of private replies #Yeah go off king. What is the point #what does it mean. what does it all mean. <- me at all times looking at the internet in my puter and understanding nothing and just leaving #i'm obsessed with how i said that qifrey doesnt really 'identify' with link so it's hard for him to play games like this #but he cooks food and sleeps as if things are real. Oh what a mysterious fellow...my darling..meanwhile once again oru plays normally #qifrey: I don't really know who zelda is so... sorry that happened to her...bye.. Oh my stomach must be rumbling by now!#if you haven't seen the other parts to this saga he ended up caring abt zelda because he pretended to himself that she is oru. Princess Oru #i play more like qifrey btw. totk was really good

I hate men and their need to act like any emotional reactions you have while you’re on your period is just you being “hormonal” and “not yourself”

(Rant in tags)

#like sorry I’m actually defending myself rather than just letting you talk shit about me directly infront of me??#when I’m on my period I tend to show more of my real emotions rather than what people want to see so yeah #but the conversation I was having with my brother was fine- I wasn’t talking to him in any way #he asked me about the monster that I had because like an hour or two ago he asked me not to throw it away since it’s one with the cod #qr code thing on it and he asked me if I threw it away and I said “no it’s not empty right now it’s infront of the microwave” and right #after my dad jumps in saying nobody needs to take offense to how I’m talking or how I’m being? when I didn’t say anything in any way? like #my brother didn’t even have the time to respond to me before he jumped in and started indirectly talking shit #I’m so done right now- all he’s done the last few days is nit pick at me about stupid shit like yesterday we missed the our bus stop and we #get off and this man starts yelling at me that now he doesn’t get to eat (mind you he never explicitly said he wanted to get off at that #stop I thought we were just going directly home)- he constantly says shit on purpose to get a rise out of me and now for some reason my #brother (the one that is 17) has been budding in and telling me to stfu and all this shit and my dad feeds off it and uses it as more of a #reason to justify how he’s treating me and it’s just so upsetting cause he does know I’m in a more vulnerable time right now since my period #is always really difficult anyways really sorry for the rant don’t have any friends I can talk to irl about any of this so to the internet #it goes 🙃#random0lover emotional dumps #random0lover rambling ♡

man i've been playing OFF (the game) and it's so weird but so fun but also sooo off-putting? like. i know that as the player there's no other option but to purify the zones but i KNEWW from the start i had a bad feeling about it and every time i purify another zone, i just don't feel like i did the right thing, it feels like i'm doing something awful

#like. the poor little dudes in each zone #they can barely think for themselves and they have to meet such a cruel end???#and who GAVE the batter this mission?? does he even know???#it seemed like he barely even knew if he was a flesh and blood person at the beginning #how does he know so little about even himself?? who gave him this mission????????#WHY does he have to act as the purifier??#and what are the add-ons by the way. they aren't explained #but in the stats menu theyre the holy trinity?? with the batter as the purifier??? what does this MEAN #anyway i've been trying to solve everything on my own but in certain areas i just get genuinely stuck #but it's so charming that the walkthroughs online are like. authentically from an older era of the internet #it's so incredibly wonderful it's so charming to see like the ASCII word art of the game title at the top of the walkthrough forum #amazing. i adore it

I hope you all know that the King Papyrus ending literally lives rent free in my head I think about it a lot-

#i think about this ending so much that the first name i really went by on the internet was King lmfao djgfhjkdgndfh #Anyways I think about it SO SO much it is SUCH a good character study for him GOD QAQ #Dude he was probably so excited when he was chosen to be king look what you did to him you gave a perfectly good skeleton severe depression #It's also a good character study for sans too I'd like to argue #like idk i think about it so much anyways it's about sans lying to papyrus about where their friends are because he knows that's like #the last thing holding him together. It's about Papyrus being aware of this but kind of refusing to believe anything else #it's about this putting a strain on their relationship it's about sans doing a bunch of work to help papyrus like #guy that does no work ever does a bunch of work there's something to say about that but i'm avoiding doing homework i can't get into it now #it's about Papyrus trying his fucking best but not knowing what the fuck he's doing but having to keep it together #cause the SECOND he cracks under pressure everything is gonna go to shit cause he is quite literally the undergrounds only hope #it's about Papyrus literally being the last option for a ruler. it's about-#I need to get back to doing homework you get the gist dshjgkndfh
