Leaving the new Avatar alone with nobody but Korra feels like a crime. It feels like a situation in which I need the CPS involved.

Good luck girl!!!!

If the man I loved conspired with my cousin to use me as a breeding mare for illegitimate children whom I wouldn't be able to raise and who wouldn't know that I'm their mother for a country I've already sacrificed EVERYTHING for...yeah I'm throwing HANDS! I'm doing WORSE than just kicking them out into the fucking snow (which he never even did lmao, also she's a fucking shape shifter, she can conjure herself some leopard fur)

It. Was. Straight. Up. Bordering. On. SA.

Aedion was going to be used as a breeding stallion in the most stupid and ridiculous plan Aelin has ever come up with.

I hate both her and Lysandra, who despite knowing the kind of abuse and trauma Aedion went through, which SHE HERSELF has gone through, still agreed to do this to him.

I hate them both and I'll never forgive them. Same goes for this toxic ass fandom.

I'll never stop defending Aedion, until Aelin remembered she had a kingdom to run, Aedion was the sole reason Terrasen even existed yet the moment she reconnected with him, she blindsided him, left him out of her plans, questioned his loyalty and then had the AUDACITY to use his body in a plan that he knew ZERO of! (she'll make a terrible queen lol)

I said what I said, he was the victim and he DESERVED BETTER.

**OBX SPOILERS**

Can we talk about the fact that Obx4 is not about good plot, writing or character based story. It's about shock value and fan service.

JJ Maybank, who literally hasn't had a moment of happiness in the 4th season, gets killed by the end so that were shocked and hooked for the next season.

We get one shot of him dead, his friends barely even crying and them BOOM gets buried in the fucking ground in the place that's not even his home, literally plopped into the fucking ground like a piece of rock. Audiences don't even get time to process his random ass death and suddenly John Bs stupid ass monologue shows the flashbacks of JJ and how he was a good friend and all that shit.

If people who WROTE this fucking show can't understand that JJs character goes FAR beyond just being a good friend, then I guess I'm not even surprised by the end.

We were CONSTANTLY shown aspects of JJ that in some other universe would've been properly explored. He's clutches his chest constantly, perhaps suggesting he's got a heart thing or breathing difficulty, his home life is shit and not a single adult gives a fuck. John B is practically stalked by the CPS in season 1, but no one bat's an eye at the fact that Luke abuses JJ. He's got dyslexia and kleptomania which is only ever played for laughs meanwhile Cleos kleptomania is regarded as a serious thing she had to do to survive. He can never sit still and constantly switches back and forth, obviously ADHD coded. Whenever gang argued before, JJ used to pace around and put hands over his ears suggesting he has some bits of PTSD from unstable home environment.

All of THAT exists and is true about JJ yet in John B fucking monologue he's reduced to just "a good friend" ????

Literally NOTHING of his trauma is explored or even touched upon aside from that bit in season 1. NO ONES trauma is explored except for Sarah's (no hate to her) and John Bs.

Fuckin bs.

Imagine being given up by your dad (who killed your mother btw) to a morally questionable man such as Luke, who then proceeds to beat you and emotionally manipulate and torment your for years, neglecting you and abusing you. To then suddenly being told you're not actually his and that all that beating and abuse COULD'VE been avoided had someone actually wanted you. Then you meet the said biological father only for him to lie to you, manipulate you, gaslight you, scam you, attempt to kill you once and then fucking succeed in killing you..... The amount of disrespect for JJs character.

Fuckin Luke, the biggest abuser is JJs story is alive and well and FUCKING JAIL FREE??? WHILE JJ IS IN THE GROUND???

The angry faces of others and Kiaras "revenge" implies that season 5 will be about seeking revenge and sinking further into darkness in order to right the wrongs of JJs murder. But guess what?? Sarah's pregnant. That storyline itself is basically ensuring that happy ending is in sight. For basically all of them, because as Kie said: takes a village (to raise a baby). Motherly vibes are gonna spread their positive energy and then they'll heal and John B will most likely give another boring ass monologue about how People die but they also live and heal and shit and how everybody deserves happiness with shots of the gang raising the kid and riding off into the sunset....

Guess who fucking deserved happy ending THE MOST out of all of them???

JJ fucking Maybank.

Every season of obx focuses on on Pogue. 1.- John B, 2.-Pope, 3.- Kie. Imagine waiting for your own season only for your character to constantly be dealt the worst of cards, be perpetually disregarded and have shit go from worse to worse to in the end fucking die randomly???? If I was Rudy Pankow I'd fuckin sue.

The shit that pisses me off the most is that it's so painfully obvious that Rafe will inevitably get a redemption arc and his own happy ending, possibly even with Kie since people love to ship her with a man who's a) mentally and emotionally not at all alright b) is a murderer who never served his time and got one of her friends framed for it causing him to literally be chased out of his own home for crime he did not commit while he was still a minor c) has tried to kill her d) has tried to kill her best fucking friend, who is his own fucking sister

Infatuation with sociopath men in media HAS to stop. But it most likely will not stop any time soon and JJ is yet another victim of shipping wars.

I can't even read stupid ass fanfics anymore because I'll always remember that JJ is not alive in the Canon anymore.

Who ever gave the green light in the making of the end of season 4, sincerely and disrespectfully, I fucking hate you.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

I feel like people think it's old/cliche to still have Levi be your favorite character in aot, especially after Eren's emo arch, but like realistically, Levi is the EASIEST character to love, because dude just doesn't fuck around. He's genuinely not twisted. He has this whole thing he's doing and he's dedicated to a t. He genuinely wants all of his comrades to survive but understands majority of them probably won't. He's compassionate, even when he doesn't show it. He's level headed, prepared to make tough decisions for the good of majority. He's not arrogant, he acknowledges when other people are better at something than he is and pushes them to reach their potential. He puts people through tough shit not because he's evil but because he has "pressure builds diamonds" kind of mentality. He has no problem sacrificing himself for the good of others. Even back in season one when he's initially introduced, he legitimately represents everything good about the show: dedication, self sacrifice, freedom, servitude. He's steady, consistent through it all. His morals aren't conflicted, he's just a man put through constant decision making that would leave anyone with lasting consequences and this man doesn't complain once. I may be having another stroke but I'm pretty sure Hajime stated Levi to be one of the most if not THE most emotional characters in aot. And honestly, I don't doubt it.

Literally everyone wanted Eren dead for titan shifting abilities, meanwhile Levi understood that he was just a confused, traumatised kid and straight up told him to go clean rooms. Bro taught him cleaning therapy. Anyone would be annoyed by constant shifting situations and new revelations happening every day in that universe, Levi isn't. Whatever the outcome, whatever new revelation or complication he's doing every single thing he's told, not complaining once. He has no problem trusting Armin, he sacrifices his leg for dumbass Mikasa, this man through it all is just steady and that's a rare and legitimately beautiful thing. The fact that he ends up surviving even though broken (Literally lmao *sniff*) is the highest form of honor the character could've been given. Bro deserved it.

Either I have a bad memory or a stroke but I'm pretty sure at some point during his little rebellion, Sasuke was considered like a public enemy of Leaf village and that he was either super dangerous or too unstable to be left alive.

But like..did anyone thank him for showing up out of nowhere and helping in the war? Or were his efforts and deeds in the war overshadowed by his last fight with Naruto?

Because I'm pretty sure the kids were like 16-17 years old in the war. Did anyone receive thanks/recognition for their efforts in the war aside from Naruto?? In no way am I hating on Naruto or anyone else in favor of Sasuke because that boy needs therapy asap, I'm just a little lost.

Let me spew some thoughts no one cares for.

The constant hate pile on Feyre for suddenly choosing to be a mother is getting ridiculous.

Realistically speaking, she saw her husband get murdered in a war and then brought back to life in a same fashion as she herself was. It is so logical to me that she would want a piece of her and Rhys to exist in this world. Was the short time and obvious disregard for their traumas unhealthy? Yes. Did they dicuss the pregnancy? Obvi not. Was the twilight-like pregnancy obviously added in so Nesta could have a Deus ex machina sacrifice? Very much so. Was Rhys abusive even before SF? Heck yeah!

But let's put the abusive Rhys and enabling IC on the side for once and focus on Feyre and her relationship with motherhood.

Continuously we've been shown that beneath her tough exterior is a gentle heart. The first book even proves it. The first book is literally just her running around with Tam and Lucien being free and happy and we witness not only her resilience but also her care. One aspect of Feyre that I feel like people tend to overlook is the fact that she's responsible, more or less, *cough* Spring Court *cough*. She's a person willing to sacrifice her sleep or meal for somebody else. That especially, is essence of motherhood. People think its Elain who is warm and motherly, i don't necessarily disagree. But Elain has continously shown how she wishes to be alone after the war. She doesn't want a male or a mate. She's uncomfortable with it. I'd argue that Feyre has more maternal instincts than any other female character in the series (except those who are already a mother of course)

The two main arguments that come with people disliking her having a kid are: a)she's boring now and b)she's weak now and can't fight her own battles.

Fae are literally animals. I'd like for you to go out and inspect the nature of female animals and their cubs. There isn't a predator a lioness wouldn't cut in pieces if she felt even a slight possibility of her cub being endangered.

Also for all the women claiming that her having kids takes away her agency, first of all, are you good? Do you not see how you are also being incredibly misogynistic by implying that a pregnant woman is reduced to "baby maker".

When it comes to the valid, technical points as to why the book SF and its prose and "plot" sucks, then yes, the pregnancy was out of nowhere with never before talked about issues (fae uterus/ Illyrian uterus) just so we can have a conflict. Is it a lazy plot device? Very much so, but the interpretation of motherhood in this fandom, with all due respect has to change. Baddass female warriors in fantasy novels aren't helpless once they have kids. In fact, having a kid, a being that by all accounts, depending on its age, cannot protect itself, that alone makes Feyre an even bigger beast. You got three books of Feyre running around killing bunch of people. What is so wrong with having one book where she gets to lay around and read books and chill, in the book where she's not even a main character?

For all the grievances this *awfully written* book deserves, the idea of motherhood does not deserve to be slandered because of the book's weak portrayal.

This is oddly specific, beware.

The way Neteyam x Aounung shippers from Avatar the Way of water fandom piss me off...its insane.

Majority of the fanarts and fics I've seen and read portray Neteyam as this thin, weak, scared little boy, harmless, a crying uke to Aounung' seme. And its honestly so ridiculous.

Neteyam is not some little bitch. By Omatikaya standards he's a full-fledged adult, an official warrior of his clan, son of and a (former, *sniff*) candidate for Oloeyktan(leader). He's canonically a killer and a defender. This man has taken lives to ensure his siblings' safety. Sure, he may be a bit more quiet/reserved son compared to Lo'ak, but who said quiet equals weak?? He's level headed, focused and mindful. This man is a beast yall, basically a dream child.

The way real Neteyam would eat Aounung up its hilarious. And I still sincerely doubt that he would ever date somebody who bullied both of his younger siblings for things that are entirely out of their control and almost got one of his siblings killed. I understand and appricate that Aounung got his little redemption and that him and Lo'ak seem to be on good terms now, but on a fundamental level, good, protective Neteyam just wouldn't be attracted to somebody who's kinda a jerk.

For the record, for fun and personal takes, I see nothing wrong with shipping Neteyam and Aounung respectively, but if a ship exists, potray characters with respect. I'm not saying that fic authors shouldn't take liberty and their own take on the character nor am I saying that specifically being weak and feminine boy is a bad thing. All I'm saying is that authors should at least acknowledge who characters are before they attempt their own personal take on them and to not use characters for surface level stories that fulfil nothing except their weird fantasies.

Let's discuss: Things I've noticed that I hate.

Something I've noticed because I'm chronically online that has me absolutely fuming is the fact that people tend to forgive SA if the dude committing it is hot or has a glow up; Chuck from GG, Damon from the Vampire Diaries, Aegon Targaryen from HoTD, Rhysand from Acotar...

I could go on...

[pixi4]

Am I having a stroke or did Feyre spent three months Under the Mountain only for there to be zero description of her having a period?

I distinctively remember watery bowels, but not bloody bowels???
