#the mainline content

[ectoman]

one day i will write my thoughts on the nature of Ghosts in Ghostbusters because.., that entire component of the universe is so peculiar and I love it

[thethunderboltz]

And if I said I’d like them to kiss 👀👉🏼👈🏼

am I getting kicked out of the club or is anyone else in here seeing my vision?

[sickficideas]

started reading 55 Minutes again (it's been...almost 2 years since my last post about it lol) and found this bit mentioning Dazai's extreme unpredictability being the reason for Kunikida's stress induced stomach problems so glad this is canon LOL

in hindsight it’s very funny to see people in the ii/bfdi fandom freak out over a month or couple month long wait when silksong has had a 5-6+ year long wait. this isn’t to say “my suffering is worse than yours” it’s just such whiplash to be so used to monthly or quarterly content when in previous fandoms im so used to scraping coins from the bottom of the couch for content

I wish there was more content in this fandom of Blinky being his own character, if that makes sense

All the content with him is either his relationship with Jim or with Arrrgh (usually in a shipping sense)

And don't get me wrong I don't find anything inherently wrong with either, I personally LOVE his dynamic and relationship with Jim it's just as a fan of Blinky I would love to see more content thats centered around him that didn't involve him being an accessory to someone else because there is so much potential to tap into with him, he's so much more then just the Cowardly smart one of the team (looking at you Wizards)

His struggles with being the new leader of Trollmarket for example and trying to live up to Vendel or his ENTIRE relationship with Dictatious and conflicting feelings surrounding him like hello why is no one doing anything with that one in particular

Hell you could even go into the aftermath of Unkar or what inspired him to become a trainer for the Trollhunter to begin with!

There's so many possibilities people!!

why doesn't catwoman marry batman :/

from this point forward i think i'm going to start ignoring marriage related asks because i think it's obvious if you think about it. editorial is maintaining batman's archetype as a tragic character with equally tragic romances. they also don't want to give up the playboy thing. so i feel like a huge change on a mainstream level is required if you want him permanently married.

and with selina... she's a character who has her own solo so writers aren't going to cut that short to make her a permanent supporting character in batman's run. having a solo also means that she's a character who, much like batman, cannot age, so they won't ever permanently make her a mother. she's largely going to be used as a young love interest and on & off current romance for him.

i personally don't believe king ever truly initially intended for them to get married, i think the proposal was a sales gimmick. i think editorial briefly allowed for the marriage after #50 because he pushed for it and it later on got taken away because of 5G or bad sales or whatever. however, what tom king did in the last issue of his run where he admits that they don't need to actually get married because they literally already are married just without a certificate and matching rings is imo, just the truth. originally my answer would've been that selina is a villainess, so she doesn't suit the archetype of more steady love interests in comics who are mostly civilians (mary jane, lois) and fellow heroines (sue storm, jean grey) but selina hasn't been positioned as bruce's enemy in decades.

u can find this on tenor gifs (+on discord)... original piece under cut :3

The Atomicycle being accessible outside of just open worlds honestly helps make 1999 feel less like an isolated content island while we wait for infested liches.

[aercoh]

even Yu is a rein truther. anyways, hope everyone got the chance to replay this act for the good ending before EOS

[julia-miraclerat]

I'm almost a full month behind on McElroy content and, tbqh, that's a pretty bad sign for me

[alex-wf]

fandom wank twitter antics you know the drill

for some unknowable reason twt ppl who don't like jayvik are OBSESSED with jayvik and they justify it in the funniest possible ways. first it was that shipping jayvik is somehow racist bc it somehow implies a hatred of mel (???????) and now it's "i hate this ship for woke reasons. bc they're both white men. oh they're not? yes they are." like YASSS girl validate your ship opinions by calling a brown-skinned character white (and calling a disabled terminally ill character plague-ridden??? 😭)

Then, nothing but dancing, nothing but dancing now!

I Never Have Nor Will I Ever buy Dungeon DLC packs for ESO because any interest in running dungeons died with how often combat skills are overhauled

Mildly high in the bathtub and feeling rambly.. I know from my blog/ao3 it seems like I'm one of the people that's deeply invested in RE men and ignores the girls, but I do love Claire so fucking much, probably not as much as I love Luis but more than I love Leon to be completely honest. It's just that I don't like her in the situations I like to write about. Hurt/comfort, angst with a happy ending, that's been my jam as long as I've been in fandom spaces. And I just don't enjoy the thought of Claire in situations like that. I love inserting Luis into as many fucked up scenarios as possible. I play other RE games he's not in and think "what if Luis was here and got traumatized more haha" but I don't do that in games without Claire because I prefer to think she's fine and thriving and not getting into fucked up scenarios. I play Darkside chronicles and Revelations 2 and love Claire so much but when i get to the end of the game the book closes for me, like "damn poor Claire went through a lot of shit, she deserves a good break" I'm not brainstorming ways to further torment her like I do with Leon and luis, i want her happy. But I also don't like writing happy fluff, again I've been mega into angst as long as I've been writing, and I've never enjoyed domestic fluff really. I only do fluff as the payoff for a bunch of angst. I have vague fluffy thoughts for hwo Claire's nice life could be unfolding, but they aren't thoughts i feel i need to flesh out and write down. And if i tried to write them, I'd be bored to death by the lack of angst and drama

And I know I've written Serrennedy fluff where they're okay and thriving so I should be able to do the same with Claire but it's very specific fluff with those two. It's them being parents because of all my daddy issues and trauma, I don't write fluff of them unless kids are involved. And I also don't see Claire as a parent. Like maybe to Sherry but that's special. (And i mean I usually imagine Leon as the one being Sherry's parent anyway) I've been struggling with the next chapter of wakin' up blind with the house on fire for a very long time and finally realized recently it's because something about it didn't feel quite right, a conversation where Claire tells Leon she's been thinking about having a kid too. Like it's sweet and appeals to my "almost every relative I have is either dead or shitty" trauma because it's claire saying she still sees leon as a brother and their kids will be like cousins, but it just doesnt feel right, I think she's makes more sense as the cool childfree aunt

Idk how to conclude this. Just. I enjoy women escaping traumatizing situations forever and being happy and like to actively put traumatized men through more trauma ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (i focused on claire bc she's my number 1 blorbo but i am fond of most of the other girls too and just don't do things focusing heavily on them for similar reasons. Especially rebecca after umbrella chronicles i was like actually i hope to god she isnt in another mainline game any time soon bc i do not want to see her suffer more girl's been through enoigh 😭 and while claire has also been thru enough and deserves a rest i want to see her in a mainline game again because I think it's really hot when she lifts heavy things and shoves heavy things and beats people up sorry)
