WAKANDA FOREVER SPOILERS BELOW
the fact that these namor x shuri scenes happened is STUCK in my mind:
1. the talokan scene: shuri looking around talokan in wonder, namor proudly telling her that he managed to create the sun for his people, HIM REACHING OUT FOR HER HAND WHEN THE SCENE ENDED LIKE I KNOW YALL SAW IT TOO
2. namor giving her his mother’s bracelet and SHURI TREATING IT WITH ABSOLUTE CARE EVEN AFTER EVERY THING
3. telling queen ramonda straight up with a SMILE on his face that there’s NOTHING he wants in exchange for shuri to be released (bro was ready for her to stay there for a long time and was probably already planning her accommodation)
4. after everything he has done to her, flooding the capital, drowning queen ramonda - he still addressed shuri as “princess” when he was inside the heat evaporation ship. like… he really said “PRINCESS”. it’s starting to sound like a pet name, bye.
5. shuri remembering namor smiling at her as she held the tip of her spear to end his life. do i have to say anything more about this?
like… what were the reasons

I fell down a sudden and spiky rabbit hole wondering where exactly in my home state of Kansas the fictional town of Smallville is supposed to be. I checked the DC Wiki for comic book information and got nothing. Kinda pissed me off, because I didn't want to have to randomly assign a plot of land to Smallville. But when I checked the Smallville Wiki (TV series Smallville, that is), I found out that the show gave it the zip code which corresponds to Chase, KS. Chase is in Rice County, which is a few hours west of Wichita on the highways, putting it pretty solidly in South Central Kansas.
And guys.....as a bitch who was born and raised in South Central Kansas, you have to know that we're some characters out here. I can't speak for Rice County, never lived there, but there's this hilarious smattering of accents scattered about the south central part of the state. Some people have that flat Midwestern/Wichita way of speaking, where you can almost pretend they're not Midwestern if they didn't unironically say "lemme just squeeze by ya" so much. But other people have that Rural Kansas drawl that isn't quite as Southern as you can hear the closer you get to the Ozarks, and despite that you'd still be able to pick them out in a crowded room because they sound a touch out of place amongst everybody else. They say "color" like "collar" and talk about "y'all down on Green Street" and they warsh their clothes while they're drawling some pictures. And that's just the way we talk, don't even get me started on the very rigidly Baptist morality and the tense feelings about whether we should even root for the Kansas City Chiefs since they're Missouri's team, anyway.
Armed with this knowledge and context, I present to all of you: Clark Kent who hauled hay in severe thunderstorm warnings as a teenager because fuck, it had to get done somehow and half the time the National Weather Service was just being cautious. Clark who learned to drive at age 12 on the farm and the county sheriff saw fit not to ticket him when he was 14 and took Pa's truck into town to pick up some last-minute ingredients for a birthday cake at the store. Clark who went to Wichita State for a journalism degree and thought Wichita was a big city and complained about the stupid ass layout of the streets between clearly historic districts and newer developments. Clark who got on a domestic flight at Eisenhower Intercontinental Airport and took off for Metropolis intent on getting out of Bumfuck Nowhere. Clark who comes back to Smallville when it's all too much because the city's great, and Lois and Jimmy and everyone else are just as great, but Kansas has the most beautiful full moon nights and not as much light pollution on the horizon, and he can fly through the Flint Hills and pretend he's a kid again and things aren't so noisy and weird and terrifying.

no but the bigeneration is truely only fun if its actually just the One doctor looping back around and that 15 does actually retain all the memories and experiences of 14, even ones that 14 hasnt yet. and there isnt ACTULLY 2 doctors theyre still the one guy at different points in their life.

So you said a while ago underfell was your favorite au before. Is that still true or?
Also who’s your favorite character from whatever au you like?
damn, you were around for that? :'D
yeah, underfell used to be my favorite! i think it was smth about being really edgy as a kid, or maybe it was because red was my favorite color. idk man, even now i gotta admit those designs slap really hard.
i'm not really sure if i have a favorite au now though. i do have some ideas for underfell that i like, but i think i see the appeal of most aus bc i just like making new scenarios.
i like the big three a lot (classic, fell, swap). sans is my favorite in classic (predictable i know) if you're not counting gaster, since he isn't technically a canon character. i like both fell paps and fell sans equally, and swap paps is cool. i'd be buddies with that guy.
(i also really like asgore in undertale. the tragedy of the grief-stricken ruler who kills even though it's against his nature for the freedom of his people but also because he's long past convinced he's in too deep is really compelling to me, and by proxy i'm interested in the theoretical stories of all the fallen humans including frisk. also the whole thing with their broken family and chara and—
—whoops the ask is about aus not canon lmao, sorry!)

that official rgg calander merch had mine in march and everyone else with canon birthdays had their birthday month assigned (ichiban in jan, kiryu in june etc) so id assume that daigos bday momth is feb and mines is march since they’re next to each other after ichiban CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG THO
its not an outright canonization of their birth months (as in someone on the team explicitly saying 'these characters were born during These months') BUT i dont think its a bad idea to interpret them as that since majima and nishiki do align with their birth months like ichi and kiryu SO. court approved. as of right now 😩
