ya know, charmer and compeller, you guys remind me of track four from Evelyn Evelyn.

The Compelor: Do you understand what they mean by that?

The Charmer: I don't have the faintest idea.

something something foils moving in opposite directions Goku's always happy to seek and fight stronger opponents because he spent most of his life being the strongest guy in the room and Vegeta wants to be the strongest/is always exhausted to find stronger opponents because he spent most of his life having to navigate his survival around the whims of the strongest guy in the universe room and so Goku has a foundation of safety and stability and so spends his time craving challenge and adventure and Vegeta has a foundation of challenge and adventure and spends his time craving safety and stability and the overlaid section of their venn diagram is that the only way they know how acquire and maintain those things is through battle

I watched the BC movie with friends and I have a lot of thoughts about it. I loved the animations, the voice actors, the fights, the teamworks. It’s a must watch movie for every Black Clover fan.

However the movie also reminded me why I think Clover Kingdom is a shitty hellhole of a place with no hope for changing and that Julius is an incomptent Wizard King and the Black Bulls should’ve been vigilantes or anti-heroes or their own self-proclaimed squad untied to the system that is built to discriminate them.

I like this series but it’s full of hypocrisy and pro-authority agenda that were only ever truly highlighted by Zora before he also ended up indirectly serving it.

Hey, sorry, quick question that's not Tango related: I have a Pearl screenshot that's been sitting in my files for almost a year now, and I just had the thought to send it to a Pearl-but-everywhere blog bc why not. Only problem is, as we all know, tumblr's search system sucks so I'm not sure if such a blog exists, so I was hoping maybe someone would know? I'm asking this to as many of the hermit-but-everywhere blogs I can find, and maybe I'll find the potentially existent Pearl one in the process, who knows 😅 sorry for the unrelated question, and thank you in advance!

Sorry, as far as I’m aware there isn’t one!

actually now that the clique thing is a few days old, i didn't really get involved for a reason and I don't feel super strongly in either direction

but I will say that like. while there's certainly a problem of less interaction on the fanworks/posts from less popular blogs, this isn't really a byler exclusive issue? this happens in most fandoms these days, interaction is just on a decline in general which IS. a problem but not really a "byler tumblr is cliquey" problem. in regards to any actual cliques I wouldn't say they don't exist but I don't think it's "the popular kids" themselves doing this. I don't know if the rest of you have some other bloggers in mind that I don't know about, but as someone who is mutuals with a fair amount of who I thought were the popular blogs, they are always very nice and welcoming to me, and actually easy to talk to once you just. see them and talk to them as a normal human and not an omnipotent fandom god. so this is all to say that if there's a clique issue I think it's from the outside. I think maybe people are perceiving these bigger blogs who all happen to be friends as these untouchable idols in fandom and it's. making it cliquey from the outside. like are they a clique or have you just convinced yourself they wouldn't want anything to do with you and isolated this group from everyone else. this isn't to say that people can't be assholes of course just that I don't think any of this is intentional

"I believe you've made a mistake coming here." Elijah announced, face bloodied and back turned towards the door. "You were not invited." He added firmly. "And this is my party... so I'll cry if I want to."

At least it’s storming the night they make her walk the plank.

It’s a silly thought, really: if anything, the storm only makes being thrown overboard more dangerous, makes it easier to be sucked beneath the waves and drown. The winds wail so loud that Shelby can barely hear her crewmates’ jeers and final words above them, blow so hard she thinks for a moment they’ll tip her over the edge prematurely. But despite the chaos and the terror, Shelby comes to appreciate the storm’s presence. Storms, after all, are great at hiding things, like the way her voice shakes when she addresses her (former) crew, or the tears that track down her cheeks beneath the lancing rain.

And when she survives the fall, survives the currents and the saltwater in her lungs, and washes ashore on a sandy strip of shore, clothes torn and ruined and hair tousled and caked in sand, she realises that there’s something else the storm can hide: her ruined reputation.

You see, there’s a special kind of dishonour to being a disgraced pirate captain. It’s a dangerous mantle to carry. If people knew Shelby’s crew had mutinied against her? Well, it would be a disaster! So there’s really only one thing she can do: deny it had ever happened.

Her ship had simply wrecked, is all, caught in a storm. Her crewmates are lost at sea and she is ever so worried about them. That’s why she’s building this pirate cove, you see—in hopes that one day she’ll find them, and they’ll have a safe place to live. Yes. Definitely. She’s not hiding anything! Why would she be hiding something?

“I’m a fearsome pirate,” she tells the witch down the way. “People from all over are scared of me!” 

“Oh, yeah, I got lost in a storm,” she tells the pretty sun princess. “I nearly drowned! I’m okay now though. And I’m really worried about my crew and all, but hey—I met you! I wouldn’t have met you if not for the storm!”

“Mmhm, it was my nemesis, Captain Skeletron,” Shelby tells the lorekeeper in her crypt. “I lost our epic battle, but don’t worry! I’ll be back. I won’t let him win. I’ll rescue my crew from his terrible wrath!”

“Oh, yeah, I’ve done lots of piratey things! Like steal. And plunder. But don’t worry, I won’t steal and plunder from you!” Shelby crosses her fingers behind her back and smiles at the Keeper of Sanctuary. “We’re neighbours! I’d never.”

“Everything’s going to be fine,” Shelby whispers to herself, standing on the shores of the Eversea, the beginnings of a secret pirate cove beginning to rise behind her. “Nobody ever has to know.”

"* yawn * I've spent long enough cooped up inside here. As much as I want to stay indoors, my food stores are starting to run out - not to mention I can't survive on vitamin D supplements forever."

"...Good fucking grief. I really need to get out more."

Hey, I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while.

The problem is that I'm currently really busy and don't have time at all… Believe me, I'd like to post more, but there's just barely any free time at the moment where I could work on this little blog. The stupid part is that I already had started working on several posts, but while writing, I realised there not as interesting as I thought, so I didn't finish them… And then I didn't have time for more. sigh

Well, it should get a bit better in January, so I hope I'll be able to write more content then.

I don't want to abandon this place entirely, so maybe I'll do a short list with some ideas I might write about to give a little sneak peak at upcoming stuff. If I find some time to do so…

Oh yeah, if you have any questions - about the blog or the posts - just ask! I'll gladly answer them.
