Sorry guys, sorry, I'm just like. Having a moment about 03 Splinter.

You got a rat. Basic, Average Rat. He's been a pet to a few extraordinarily kind humans throughout his short rat life (which, sidebar: can we talk about how the average lifespan of a rat is 2-4 years, meaning everything from Shen discovering Splinter to Yoshi dying took place in less than four years? Holy shit) BUT. He's still A Rat.

And he gets turned suddenly, miraculously, into a sapient, roughly man-sized creature. He's a rat with a GRUDGE, guys! He clearly dislikes Hun and absolutely loathes The Shredder, he wants that man DEAD dead, feudal revenge-plot style.

But here's the thing: he wasn't mutated alone. There's four other creatures with him that have been miraculously Embiggened and granted higher thought, and they are, by all appearances, actually infants. They can barely walk and babble on their own, they're cold, they're hungry, and he knows the humans won't react kindly to him (no one ever reacted kindly to a regular rat, after all, besides Tang Shen). So what does he do? Does he go on his revenge rampage and get even with The Shredder for the death of his beloved master? His only family?

No. That bitch ass motherfucker takes his brand new sapient life and becomes a single dad of four instantaneously. Not only that, but he goes on to treat them as his sons and verbally remind them of this often, clearly treats them with love and respect, and teaches them everything he knows. Literally, he says "this is what I learned from my Master Yoshi, and now I will teach you."

The reason the 03 turtles call him Master and Sensei instead of Father is because that's what he first called Yoshi.

for the record, i think *everyone* should voice their opinions directly in my replies and reblogs, because there's this beautiful thing called "talking to people" and it does wonders for the sense of community when you don't feel like it's you against everyone else. if i make a dumbass post i encourage y'all to say something directly to me, i'll probably agree with you on your points, and if i don't, then you might gain a better understanding of mine that must have led me there.

like, am i crazy. am i old. i genuinely think this is the largest contributing factor to isolation and this Me vs. Them vibe that modern fandom has going on. most of the time if i see something ~factually incorrect~ and shoot somebody a reply they go, "shit, you're right, my bad!" and that's the end of it. i would hope everybody would pay me the same courtesy and be comfortable enough to do that, idk.

hi guys I'm still thinking about closeson bcs of the live show . hello . that was insane why is no one talking about this .

[luckystar1327]

hey moots? I don’t say this enough, but I am genuinely so grateful for each and every interaction we have. Even if it’s just, like, a reblog or a like, it makes me smile because hey, that’s my mutual! Look at them go! Look at that little amazing guy that I am so lucky to know!

anyways. All of you have made my life so much better. Love you guys /p <33333

On your Data was right/Q sees Picard as his beloved pet AU but with a cracky/silly twist: I know with all MY pets I've been overcome with love and cute aggression and just scoop them up and carry them around for a bit. So obviously this Q does his equivalent of that, like disappearing Picard from his ship for a few minutes to hover him inside a void and just stare at him or something before putting him back, something like that. Idk, I got the brainworms

Anon, I am pretty sure that Q already sort of does this in canon.

Small fic:

In the beginning, the crew did not really know what to do. One second their Captain was there and the other one he was gone. No missing shuttle, no clue as to where he was, nothing.

But then only moments later, he was back. And the only answer from the Captain to the questions as to where he was and what happened was a sigh and "Q".

Which, all other potential options considered, was a relieving answer. After all, the only part of the Captain that was ever truelly harmed when he was once again kidnapped by Q was his pride.

Q was a ... strange fellow. And as Picard had found out after Q had taken him to the Continuum that one time, he was even considered a strange fellow amongst his own kind. Picard was not sure wether he should feel relief at finding out that the way Q treated him was not considered normal or healthy and that even though Q apparently used to have 'toys', the way he handled Picard was something new and unique. The question as to what happened to Qs previous 'toys' and how dare Q treat other beings like such was only answered by an amused smile and the 'reassurance' that Picard did not need to worry about that because he meant so much more to Q then they did.

That had been the first and only time Picard, so far, had been to the Continuum. Or perhaps better to say had been kidnapped to the Continuum. Mainly because Qs jealousy had been rather apparent, especially when some of Guinans friends tried to explain and apologize to Picard that they can not intervene.

So, usually whenever Q felt lonely (Q never admitted to him that he was even capable of feeling lonely but considering Qs overall standing and banishments from his own species and his apparent inability to make friends with other, 'lesser' beings that seemd to be a given) or just generally felt like he wanted Picards company. Right. Now. the Captain was gone.

Where exactly Picard ended up usually depended on Qs mood. Sometimes it was for an 'adventure' that was clearly set up and arranged by Q and wheres Qs attention was less on the things at hand and mostly on Picard and his reactions. Other times, Q did not even bother to snap other people into existence or bring them to a planet.

That were the times when Picard found himself in the strange, white void. At first Picard had protested, knowing that he was not dead and that he demanded to be brought back to the Enterprise. Q, who was either with him in that void in his human form or just a voice coming from all around him always promised him to do just that but to see this as a 'short break' for both of them.

At least Q .. tried to be accomodating during these times by materializing a place for Picard to sit, to let him have some of his favorite brand of tea but there was always the weird sense of feeling like he was being... held the entire time he was there. It was a rather strange sensation considering that whatever (well the question as to who was doing this was not really unanswered) was utterly inhuman and so it was not really like one would feel when being held by another organic body and it was generally a light hold. Wether it was because Q tried to make it so Picard did not notice or wether Q simply thought Qs human body was fragile was another question Picard did not want answered. Although after this happened a few times, Picard could feel the pressure slightly intensify which he met with a 'stop it, Q'. His clear disapproval was met with amusement but, thankfully, also a disappearance of any sort of pressure on his body. Temporarily.

Another thing the crew did not know was that Qs insistance on having Picard for company at the oddest of times did not stop at the kidnappings. Because sometimes he felt Qs presence wherever he was. On the Bridge, during the missions and even when he was alone in his quarters, although there Q often did not even bother to be invisible.

All of this was at first met with clear protest and telling Q to leave him alone. His rather strong requests and even the ensuing arguments with Q however were not really taken seriously by the entity in question. And so over time Picard began to feel a reluctant acceptance towards his situation. In the end, no harm was done or presented itself.

Although some boundaries Picard still held unto. For once, he refused to let Q actually hold him in his human form. Partly because then Q tended to be quite clingy. His requests at refusing to be held when he was sleeping were, as far as he was aware, still being accepted although it was clear to him that with his continues trys to get Picard to relinquish this boudnary that Q was trying to wear him down enough so he would accept this part of 'innoncent affection' as well.

Picard just really hoped that Q was going to get bored of him and this game he was playing with him. That Q actually laughed when Picard brought up the possibility of him getting bored of 'this' and Picard did however not seem very promising.

me still being on tumblr is like. i think i got so used to suffering that i just do it for no reason now

The kinds of things the Heartstopper and Young Royals fandoms put me through as a child were genuinely so fucked, and the only reason I didn't bat an eye was because I'd already developed dissociative disorders from my other child abuse (shoutout to the person who told me it was obvious I'd never been bullied bc I sympathized with a fictional fellow victim!).

People called me woke trash, racist, and repeatedly accused me of being an abuse/rape apologist for pointing out flaws and being able to put myself in characters' shoes (AKA write good analysis?). I got hate asks on a regular basis, people coming into my inbox just to tell me how much they hated characters I related to, trying to convince me that these characters, that people like me, are the scum of the earth because our trauma responses aren't palatable enough for them.

These are people who straight up do not give a fuck about child abuse if the child doesn't respond to it in a way they're comfortable with. These are people who will demonize abuse victims and make joking death threats about teenagers whose lives are implied to be in active danger. These are people who dismissed every one of my attempts to bring up racism and ableism in these shows because they were so fucking fragile and terrified of acknowledging their own imperfections. They attacked me for noticing and added to the racism and ableism I had to deal with instead of sucking it up and learning something.

And I know that this had a real impact on people who weren't me and didn't have my kind of armor because I also had people in my inbox who related to them like I did. I had adults agreeing that if they'd encountered these fandoms when they were younger, it would've made them suicidal. I had teenagers who related to the characters saying that they had been similarly abused. I'm really glad I was able to be a safe person for them, and I'm disappointed that I was one of the only ones there to do it when there are so many so-called "allies" here.

There is something seriously fucking wrong with these fandoms, and you all should be ashamed of yourself for cyberbullying teenagers off the internet. You need to reflect on that shit and fix it if you want to consider yourself any kind of ally or empath or cool gay teacher or any kind of positive influence in the spaces you’re in

(P.S. I swear to fucking god if people respond to this post with "but he sexually assaulted someone" and ignore literally every other personality trait/experience he had that could've been relatable to a child abuse survivor and the way people mistreated me, a real human being, which Charlie is not by the way, I will start doing the things you wanted to do to Ben)

It feels so disingenous when someone says "how is x y?" Like you are not genuinely trying to learn about any potential you have to do wrong you're just implying that x isn't y and someone has to "prove" it to you

"how is [thing someone did] transmisogynistic?" can easily be intepreted as implying that it's an overreaction. You might find out more if you reread the initial post you were replying to. Or perhaps listen to the voices of people who are talking about this mistreatment and you might have an easier time understanding things around you

[masterlalna]

i think part of the problem is the sheer amount of people who read "privilege" as "inherently bad person on the opposite team" rather than an unavoidable description of someone who lives in an unequal and hierarchical society. so you get these really stupid arguments as people desperately try to avoid the bad label that makes them bad and evil. so imma just break it down for you

🫵 YOU, THE PERSON READING THIS, HAVE PRIVILEGE IN ONE WAY SHAPE OR FORM

🫵 THIS DOES NOT MAKE YOU INHERENTLY EVIL OR WRONG OR A BAD PERSON

🫵 YOU WILL NOT BE THE "GOOD PERSON" YOU WANT TO BE UNTIL YOU RECOGNISE THE PRIVILEGES YOU HAVE AND WHAT POWERS AND EASES THAT PROVIDES IN OUR SOCIETY, AND YOUR CAPACITY TO WIELD THAT PRIVILEGE AGAINST OTHERS, WHETHER INTENTIONALLY OR NOT

🫵 RUNNING FROM IT IS COMPLICITY IN THE SYSTEM
