#yes this is plot relevant

I still love you, I promise

Nothin' happened in the way I wanted

Every corner of this house is haunted

And I know you said that we're not talkin'

But I miss you, I'm sorry

I don't wanna go, think I'll make it worse

Everything I know brings me back to us

I don't wanna go, we've been here before

Everywhere I go leads me back to you

I love you, I'm sorry

You were the best but you were the worst

As sick as it sounds, I loved you first

I was a dick, it is what it is

A habit to kick, the age-old curse

I tend to laugh whenever I'm sad

Stare at the crash, it actually works

Making amends, this shit never ends

I'm wrong again, wrong again

(Also shout out to @heyitszev because I kinda stole his song thing he does with Charlie)

Translation notes for Miseinen: Mijukuna Oretachi wa Bukiyo ni Shinkochu / Our Youth ep 3

I just realised that I didn't make a note about the title itself, Miseinen: Mijukuna Oretachi wa Bukiyo ni Shinkochu, which very loosely and literally would be 'Not of age: The clumsy progress of the immature us' Note: While not of age would mean minors, but I preferred 'not of age'

By the time I realised it, I had already entered the sea where you were waiting Note: A different translation uses "when I had come to my senses", which I think fits the underlying meaning that when it comes to Haruki, Jin finds himself acting before he can think things through.

Aren't kissing and liking someone different?

But this guy is different (i.e. he's not a virgin)

Are you an unexpected late bloomer?

Ah, he's left Dotei kun (which translates to Mr. Virgin)

Haruki: Can I bring DVDs and go to your house again? Jin: That's fine, but I'm gonna be studying. H: Yay! Next time, I'll bring lots that you might like. H: Once in a while, don't study; let's watch movies together. J: Next time. H: I'll bring them again!

I absolutely need it (the deodorant spray), so I'll go right now. Wait for me

If there was someone, they'd just be a hindrance Exaaaactly We're fine with how things are Note: All men do is lie lol

Note: Unlike everyone else, she refers to him by his first name, Haruki, rather than his surname, which suggests a fairly close relationship.

What? Oh, it's just that here we are, pursuing our studies every day and there he is living so carefreely.

Something must be wrong with you if you choose to do something like enter stormy/rough seas Note: Interestingly, the verb for to be stormy/rough can also mean to be ruined, which is something that Jin has been warned to be careful about

For some reason, I can't leave you, who can't swim and is being swept away without any resistance, alone

By the time I had realised it, my hand had already reached out to you.

cooking up an idea that involves making a mv (which is probably ridiculously overly ambitious but is it really me if my video ideas arent way out of my skill level) but also involves hitting them with the sheep beam

“Anything for your gongeous” extremely relatable

LISTEN! FR!! The way Gideon Nav has me down bad is catastrophic. I'd do anything for her. However much of a loser simp she is about the beautiful women of Canaan house, I'd be THRICE as bad in the presence of her. I'm not arguing with that buff redheaded lesbian and her GOLDEN BEAUTIFUL EYES, WHATEVER YOU SAY GOREGUS!

since gomens3 will be only 90 minutes long i am praying to god they will keep the side characters to a minimum screentime. focus as much on crowley and aziraphale as you possibly can. i didn't give a fuck about the kids or newt/anathema or mr shadwell and i cared even less about the gabriel/beelzebub romance so if we're getting another set of tedious boring side characters to hog all the screentime I'll riot

[lumism]

i truly like the cali plot because every other group is seeing terrible visions and fighting for their lives and then we cut to mike and will struggling to breathe more than any of those other characters just from looking at each others eyes. also argyle is there. and he wears rainbow socks 💖

[ask-whitepearl-and-steven]

(Joke question) Now that you have said that, does Steven need to take a shit? I know in actual SU one of the reasons Pearl doesn’t like to eat is because she doesn’t like peeing, but Rose managed to grow an entire baby so more efficient digestion isn’t out of the question for their shapeshifting capabilities?

Steven is, in fact, obligated to go to the bathroom once in a while. I will not hide this very important, plot-relevant fact from you.

the hotguy comics contributor sona inserts still kill me because almost all of them are like ‘we added the team's writer as background extra #482’ and then i’m out here ‘hello kaze my beloved page illustrator slash era cover artist you are now my oc you have a criminal record and a head injury and you’re lowkey kind of an asshole but you come around at the start of act 3 in a heartwarming moment that hints at the slowly rekindling trust between our heroes and the city they’ve sworn to protect’

No matter how many times it happens, I'm always shocked by how reliably all my problems with any given story are solved by making it shorter. If I go into a story with the idea that it'll be long, that I should use as much detail as I want to craft a full-length and fully-fleshed-out story instead of a short one, it always turns into this rambling, meandering, soulless thing that's no fun to read, and I get tangled up in so many flimsy, sprawling layers of character and worldbuilding that the plot becomes unworkable.

The minute I tell myself, "Let's make this as short as possible," the problems fall away, I find the heart of the story again, the pacing is brisk, scenes get multiple purposes, the world feels deeper because I'm implying things that spark the reader's imagination rather than trying to put every threadbare, boring detail on the page. Every time. You'd think I'd have learned by now.

The way three out of four Rajamannar siblings are some flavour of queer:

Radha Rama with her peculiar codependancy on Obulamma and blatant disinterest in her own husband.

Rudra, his fixation on Varadha that borders on antagonistic obsession, him letting Ranga drape himself all over him, hearing him whine and moan like a loud girlfriend and promising to solve his problems.

And finally, Varadha. His case doesn't even need to be elaborated. The entire film is based around his inability to let Deva go and the lengths he would go to keep him by his side, to keep him safe.

Calling all Dair shippers!!!!!

I want to start reading fan fiction of them, but I have no idea where to begin.

My only requirements are that it's in English (why must you be the only language my stupid brain could leadn), is an AU and that (while I don't mind if he shows up) Chuck doesn't get any kind of a redemption arc like if he's in the story I want the narative to treat him like the villain he is (the same with Louie tbh but I'm guessing he dosn't get much focus).

I would also prefer it if it took place when they're adults (but I'm willing to give fics of them getting together sooner a try).

So, if you know of any fics that fit that description, please leave your recommendations in the comments.

Truly the discourse I want to set fire to is “this side character that I became inexplicably attached to isn’t important to the plot and has little depth and is just a plot device and now I’m going to disparage the author for not dropping everything and making that one random ass special little guy SO IMPORTANT.” Like my brother in Shakespeare, SOME CHARACTERS ARE JUST THERE TO FULFILL A SINGLE ROLE AND THEN EXIT STAGE LEFT.

Signed a person whose special little guys are almost always minor so I just fucking write fanfic instead of crying about it.

[kunikiiida-kuuun]

Ok I'm kinda lost with the manga plot now? Like since when are people apprehensive about abilities in the BSD universe anyways? Up till now I haven't seen any actual disdain for abilities, so it feels like it's coming out of nowhere when Fyodor is like "now everyone will see the danger of ability users and want them all dead". Aren't ability users super rare to begin with??? This is just Fyodor having some personal vendetta against ability users for reasons still unknown.

Also isn't Amenogozen way too op??? A time travelling sword was already op to begin with but I doubt there's any logical way to defeat it.
