#and u know.....bc the nutcracker

[sparkyscissorhands]

trying 2 think more about what kind of storyline my s/i would have. but i like 2 imagine if it was in d.ate e.verything, it would just be introduced like this and thats it for the first day LMAO

then it just hard cuts to “new dateable!” shsjksks

[sukunasweetheart]

omg yaayy my mouth ask got answered heehee I was so worried I was like 'omg what if I was too weird oh no;;' but now you got me thinkin!!! His tummy mouth would be like a tail as in a true feelings indicator. Imagine him trying to act all tough and gruff in front of you but his stomach's all like ' ( ^ u ^ ) yippee'

Or trying to act all polite towards strangers (like family friends of yours and he's gotta behave in front of you to not be a giant red flag) and he's all calm in his expression but his gut is just writhing and gnashing teeth with rage and envy

,,do you think it also puckers when he eats sour stuff too like you see him eat a warhead and he tries to act like it aint shit but you see his shirt just get suctioned into the tummy mouth on accident..

YES I LOVE THIS ???? i know the idea of his tummy mouth being sentient was getting popular last time but this is also so yummy..... omg especially gnashing his teeth when hes angry PLEASEEE THATS SO FUNNY also noticing how often his tummy mouth goes blep :p even tho sukuna has his serious face on, which makes me believe this may be canon 😇😇🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 youre telling sukuna all these sweet compliments and his face might be like 😐 sure thanks whatever... but his stomach be smiling like crazy 😭 im sobbingggggggg its so endearing you always hug his stomach first bc its way more truthful than the being above which makes sukuna mildly jealous of his own body feature which is insane work

I vote that it definitely puckers when he eats something sour. Or it definitely will frown deeply when eating something that doesn't suit his taste.

Btw just thought of asking sukuna for help in crushing something like walnuts, i bet its so easy for him, you'll use it as a nutcracker to sukuna's displeasure, but he eventually gets used to it, i picture him laying on his side while you feed walnuts or food with hard shells to his big mouth, and take turns eating them for yourself and also feeding sukuna as well 😇🤭

His body that he thought was really only good for fighting and killing sorcerers turns out to be useful in many other ways as shown by you 💖💞💝💝💕💗💞💕💝💗💞

Rescue Corps headcanons bc I’m tired of my echo chamber of a noggin

Shepherd:

You know how we have “golden retriever vibes” “black cat vibes”

She assigns those kinds of things with everyone she knows but like…space dog/cat breeds yk?

has to actively stop her self from petting any and every stray dog she sees (omg shocker!!!1!)

If she ever got invited to those interviews where they brought out puppies to play with while she answered questions, I feel like she’d just…weep joyfully.

Collin:

To me, he has a nutcracker mouth, so now I imagine that he really likes Christmas and has an unhealthy amount of ugly sweaters

Might enjoy fishing! With a name like Collin, it’s all I can imagine. One of those little bucket hats and everything 

Russ:

Has a lopsided smile, can’t explain myself on this I just feel it in my bones

I just know Mother’s Day goes absolutely CRAZY in his family. 

Has a ring collection of some kind to wear for fancy events, but otherwise never wears them, especially while working.

Dingo:

Had braces as a teen and gets REALLY embarrassed whenever someone sees old photos with them visible.

I doubt he’d scream if he saw one of those big freaky looking bugs, but he’s definitely throwing the nearest small object at it. Either that or he’s chill with bugs.

Yonny:

100% loves Halloween. Likely holds Dingo hostage to do matching costumes with him just because.

We all know he goes “Eheheh” when he laughs, but it’s pretty difficult to get him to LAUGH. Like a belly laugh. When he does, it sounds exactly like the maniacal laugh he does when making medicine. Yes, he’s laughed like this in public and it had some heads turning. No, he does not care.

Bernard:

If you try to take off his sunglasses, he has an identical pair sitting right under and you WILL end up with a pile of sunglasses if you keep trying to snatch them off.

Obvi he’s a really good pilot, but it’d be really funny if he was just…a really bad driver. Like a 5 minute drive to the grocery store and he already hit a curb twice and he just goes “haha OOPSIE daisy B0)”. Prob not true at all, but again, for funnies.

Do u guys like my Bernard emoticon

B0)

Pom:

After the whole PNF-404 mission, they’d absentmindedly draw little doodles of the pikmin in the margins of any kind of notes they have. Or just on paper in general. Has even doodled Moss, the Sirehound, sage leaf, or any other castaway that happens to come to mind sometimes!

Not gonna lie, this one’s kinda difficult so I just leave this up to other headcanons I see, my bad lol

Happy easter btw yall!!!

[zyxoxox]

the brother diluc angfs kaeya obsessed anon again THANK U FOR WRITING ITTTTTT.

Anyways sorry to disappoint ya but I only thought of this...

Reader is the youngest child of the ragnvindr family, but since we don't know abt diluc mother, I speculated that she died giving birth to reader. Crepus heartbroken from his wife's death wants to break down but bcs we know that he's a mature gentle man he nevertheless raises the child as his own son/daughter (I usually use fem reader in ur fics cuz I think it would be kinda funny dynamic of a girl being raised by brothers and being a total Nutcracker LMAOOO) anyways reader is born 1 year after kaeya comes to the house cause I envisioned them seeing the fight between kaeya and iluc at a young age (for angst😈😈😈😈) to atleast remember bits and bytes so yeah. Anyways reader doesn't remember much about their father and always saw diluc as one since he is prob almost a decade older than them lmao. Anddd yeah that's about the whole scenario also since diluc lives far from the city reader mainly grew up along with only their brother as their playfriend.

Also reader gets an anemo vision! Sick right? They cn be paired with diluc and kaeya in a team lmao

Okay I will stop yapping cuz I have a religion exam tmrw and I didn't study anything🙏🙏also sorry it's not interesting 😭😭😭

-diluc Lil sister anon

GLAD TO BE OF SERVICE! here’s the ragbros x sibling!reader in question if anyone wants to read~

ok let’s look at this in detail bc you bet i was thinking about it!!

firstly- both diluc and kaeya are such girl dads. a little sister makes SO much sense for them, i love the thought of her being the princess of the winery who wreaks just as much havoc as the boys, but gets away with it easier.

girl dad crepus!! GIRL DAD CREPUS!! have you seen the way this man spoils diluc and kaeya?? he would go INSANE with a daughter fr. man would import goodies from all seven nations for her frfr. jade bangles from liyue! toys from schneznaya! books from sumeru! but also without his wife he’d be so helpless at times 😭 adeline came in CLUTCH

now let’s do some age math!! i always kind of assumed kaeya was taken in when diluc was around 7-8. but, if reader only remembers bits and pieces of the Fight, then they were probably 7-8 when it happened so diluc would be a decade older for sure. this means kaeya was taken in when diluc was 9, so he was probably 10-11!

ik kaeya is the younger of the two, but i personally feel like hierarchy-wise he’s the second son since he came after diluc, but biological age-wise he’s a couple years older. i might make a post elaborating on that some other time!

if reader came in one year after kaeya was taken in, this comes with more angst… because then… kaeya loses his only mother figure as well :’)

just imagine, this little ten-year-old boy is told by is “father” to be a spy, and it was his duty. but when he arrives at mondstadt, he’s treated with love and kindness, as though he truly was a part of this family. everything he associated with family would be turned upside down- and just as he was getting used to this new dynamic, his mother dies.

i think he would hate reader at first. he’s still a kid, and in his head it was because of reader their mother was now gone. the four of them would’ve been just fine without them! but of course, over time reader would grow on him, and the three siblings would be inseparable.

i’ve got a very similar ask in my inbox right now about reader in the middle of a big time ragbros fight. makes me wonder how they’d react to being present for the day of diluc’s 18th birthday- it would be so scary and confusing for a kid that young. i wanna elaborate on that separately!

post-diluc’s return to the city, i think kaeya would take reader to the city every now and then even if they lived at the winery. assuming they’re the same age as barbara, bennett and fischl, it would be so cute if all of them were a little friend group! it’s also interesting that even though diluc wants reader to have nothing to do with the knights of favonius, they end up involved anyway.

nonnie this is such lovely food for thought!! i’m glad you like my little au enough to want to expand upon it hehe

[uriekukistan]

right so here i am w MORE URIE BALLET HCS

- the first time urie went to a ballet class was against his will

- i wanna say hsiao took the quinx bc the way i see her move in the manga reminds me of a dancer…yeah she probably goes for cross training or smth

- urie was pretty reluctant and not looking forward to it at all. probably thought it was a waste of time

- but he so quickly came to love it. like by the time they were done with tendus (literally the second thing you do in a ballet class)

- i wanna say he was one of those people who didnt think much of ballet and ballet dancers, but after that class he really came to respect the art

- i’ve said before that i think he would appreciate the way it combines all of his fav hobbies - the creativity of art, the athleticism of working out, and ofc we rarely see him not listening to music in his headphones

- but i think what he likes most is the structure and discipline of ballet

- he’s someone who has a lot of thoughts at all times. ballet classes are very predictable and you should be focusing on the technique, so your brain kinda goes quiet. i think he would appreciate that

- anyway after that first class he’d kinda get obsessed w ballet but he would keep it to himself

- his fav company is the bolshoi ballet btw

- after a few weeks of obsessing, he would finally go to another class, but he would figure out when hsiao went and specifically go on different days. or he would straight up find a completely different studio

- idk why he’s so hellbent on hiding this new hobby bc you know the quinxes would be supportive as fuck

- the teacher really likes him because he’s always super focused and looking for corrections

- so the teacher asks him if he’d be interested in performing in the nutcracker with the company they’re part of (omg time for my fav urie ballet hc)

- urie hesitantly accepts because he really does enjoy ballet but he’s worried he’s not good enough and also that the quinxes will find out (again- why???)

- so he ends up being the cavalier for the sugar plum pas de deux, which he’s kinda like ???? because other than the nutcracker prince it’s one of the most coveted male roles in the nutcracker

- he’s also never done partnering before so he’s kinda nervous. very shy in rehearsals but also very cooperative with his partner. he wants to do well in everything so he works very hard and always asks for tips and feedback from his teacher and his partner

- he also finally comes clean to the quinxes about where he sneaks off to every night and theyre so excited to come see him dance. he thought they would tease him, but no one does because they can see how much it means to him

- they all come and sit in the front row. saiko also told takeomi and yoriko, and kaneki and touka so they all come too and urie is lowkey mortified

- he slays tho as expected

the dance if u were interested! one of my personal favs! this was so long omg

also his dream role is prince siegfried from swan lake (bc his fav ballet is swan lake), and he kinda wants to do the russian dance from the nutcracker bc of all the jumps

[fluffydragonchips]

whats some specific things you really like about the jester lethal company im curious

they feel out of place in a positive way bc, the other enemies are like giant spiders hiding on the walls,, centipedes that lurk on the ceiling waiting for players, a shadow that constantly stalks you, and then the jester is a brightly colored box w legs that just walks up to u and follows??

when i first found one i thought it was 'friendly' and only smthin thatd block pathways tbh. finding out that its like the deadliest thing in the game was !!! it was just a box!! they block doorways, they used to HAVE AN AURA THATD STOP YOU FROM ATTACKING ENEMIES, they literally throw you cliffs, theyre menaces actually

the music is like an instant tell to runnnn even for new players i love it. its a little guy that sends the entire crew into a panic the moment its found,. jesters always know where everyone is when not in their box,, thats crazy, and its rather haunting to hear the ambience and stomping get closer and closer to where u are

the mods that change its music to silly cat music are so 💖 its veryyy fascinating to get a noclip or invisibility mod and observe jesters while they roam.. they way they literally zoom across jumps is lovely. also jesters animations are soo goofy looking theyre having a great time. extra thing apparently you used to be able to run in circles to avoid getting eaten?? what????

if i could id hold up a jester like a small kitten. itd be so fun to stand on a jester box and see where it wanders. i want to hit one with a shovel. theyd love to eat the lollipop scrap. nutcrackers would probably kick jesters across rooms if they couldd

new ballets russes

ngl if i ever ended up with a ridiculous amount of money i'd probably found a ballet company, i'd wanna do something new and interesting like the ballets russes did back in the early 20th century- minus Diaghilev being a strange and quite frankly gross individual- I feel like so much of ballet has gotten repetitive, in the sense that we've focused to much on perfection we've forgotten that we are a performing art form- so often we get hung up on body proportions and things like hyper extension and body shape that we end up losing the emotion of the dance completely. I've recently watched dying swan- the og version with anna pavlova and now i can't help but feel newer versions are overly santized, like the concern is to look beautiful and not the real tragedy that is happening on stage. I think it's not only a disservice to audience members but to dancers as well as we are robbing them of developing their creative expression. That and it would also help with the fact that many ballets are quite frankly dated- for example the bolshoi black face scandal for their production of la bayadere (this happened in 2019 btw).

I would love to see a new fantastical adaptation with elaborate costumes, choreography, sets, and music- (bring back camp!!). Plus there are so many myths and cultural things to chose from a ballet could be done on Sappho's life, or on La Maupin (if you don't know who she is PLEASE look her up- she's unhinged and my hero), or even take from more myths like eros and psyche, or apollo and hyacinth, or a full length version of orpheus (i know balanchine did a short version with music by Stravinsky but imagine an entire set for the underworld- like fully fleshed out costumes for hades and persephone- it's actually a shame how minimalist balanchine's sets and costumes are given the inspo (bc they weren't originally!!- look at old apollo costumes vs the more recent ones- like bro HOW did we get here???) or we could start adapting Dostoevskyballet and Kafka like we've been adapting Shakespear (METAMORPHASIS BALLET GUYS- I MEAN COME. ON.) and these are just the ones off the top of my head.

I think now would be a good time to reinvigorate the artform especially with increased interest due to the overall ballet core trend- it could be a great way to bring in more people not only as those who take classes but also as viewers. Also ballet company's have shitty marketing- ofc if you only push the nutcracker for the entire year then you're only going to get people to watch the nutcracker and your other repertoire is gonna flop. duh. By investing a bit in marketing instead of lining the artistic director's pockets (be so fr do u really need a second vacation home?) the company would be more successful overall-( more people to come in and see shows, more artistic outreach, more outreach means more tickets means more money so hopefully better conditions for the dancers, etc. etc.)

tldr. people only say ballet is boring bc y'all have made ballet boring, the lack of artistic expression, lack of new creative sets and costumes, elitism, racism, homophobia, etc. etc. etc. are what have made people less engaged with the art form over the years NOT the actual style of dance itself.

hii ❣️ 1, 2 and 3 for the movies ask game?

helloooo, thank u for the ask <3

1. what is your current favorite film?

oof, tough question..... my usual favorite movie is either alice 1988 or the fall 2005 at any given time. the wolf house is up there too but i havent watched it nearly enough times. i think alice rn but only bc i havent watched the fall in a long while. i should probably rewatch......

2. what was your favorite film as a child?

monsters inc!!! i got it super memorized, fron the music to the dialogues, i loved the latinamerican dub and tbh its still just my favorite pixar movie even if i know its not the best of theirs. barbie nutcracker and atlantis are close seconds, i remember rewatching them about a hundred times. i also think even earlier on, so about when i was 3 or 4,i had a dinosaur phase? so i watched the matt damon disney dinosaur movie a lot. and also manuelita, bc ive always loved maria elena walsh <3

(i had vhs of a bunch of the 90s and 2000s disney movies so theres that of course. but i also had shrek on vhs which my dad loved so i also have good memories of that one :)

3. whats a film you absolutely despise, and why?

i try not to hate movies bc apart from all the effort ppl put into them i also know that any movie must be someones favorite movie, and tbh most of the time there is always sth to love about a movie no matter how bad it is...... but going over my letterboxd my last low-rated movie was the mulan remake. im usually too charitable towards disney remakes bc i dont care about the source material too much and i just want to be entertained and dazzled by high value production design for a while but the mulan remake was just. Dull. even the aladdin remake could halfheartedly hold my attention a bit more. mulan was boring and unfortunately for it i actually have some nostalgia towards the original. so it was just a disappointment

characters + arcana – frederick stahlbaum, the death

while it is associated with foreboding and doom, death arcana also symbolizes metamorphosis and deep change, regeneration and cycles. in the original tarot deck, it is the only arcana that doesn't have a name, but the drawing of a skeleton wielding a scythe led people to call it death. in recent games, characters of the death arcana are associated directly with death, but a commonality that connects all death arcana characters is the cycles of change they experience.

[professorsparklepants]

Listen..................... who do I have to kill to get a new Nutcracker and the Four Realms trailer that has Clara talking to her incredibly cute clearly black Nutcracker Prince love interest who doesn’t have any speaking lines in the trailer so far

[bingoboingobongo]

task force 141 + holiday traditions

Characters: Simon "Ghost" Riley, John "Soap" MacTavish, Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, John Price, Alejandro Vargas, Rodolfo "Rudy" Parra

Warnings: none

A/N: buhruh the hardest thing abt this series is finding gifs istg

john price:

okay so i feel like price's favorite holiday tradition is watching the nutcracker

fhhdhshs ok this is like a super duper random headcanon that's gonna go off on a tangent here and if ur a possessive price girly maybe u won't like it but oh well

but i can see price like at one point having a small little relationship with some other lady whatever she's kinda irrelevant ngl

what matters is her child

omg that sounds bad wait lemme finish

what im trying to say is that the ex's child danced in the nutcracker and his ex brought him to see it

but this was like quite a few years ago

either that or he just dated a dancer that was in the nutcracker

idk man all that matters is that the tradition of watching the nutcracker was started

he likes going to a different theatre/company every year so it sorta switches it up

so sometimes he'll go watch the royal ballet or sometimes he'll watch some amateur recital thing

he just enjoys watching people dance and listening to the music

he thinks it's so cool how effortless they make it look

especially since he knows it's anything but

he really likes the mouse king vs nutcracker part in the beginning

and he thinks the dance of the sugar plum fairy is overrated

lives for the snow queen tho

kyle "gaz" garrick:

man kyle just likes to hang out with his family

mainly because his family has like twenty different traditions they do together

making gingerbread houses, making christmas sweaters, making ornaments

i mean it's like an advent calendar of christmas festivities at the garrick household

honestly gaz is a family man but he's not ready to have his own family yet ykwim?

like he loves his family

but he want to wait until he's older to have his own family

absolutely loves hanging out with his younger brother and sister tho

and we've already established this before but they're like little kids

so he likes sorta bringing the magic of the holiday traditions to them

one of his favorite traditions is to take his younger siblings on a drive to watch christmas lights

and then he drives until they fall asleep

it's so sweet

guys im becoming a gaz girlie ngl and it's criminal how little fics there r of him

anyways

simon "ghost" riley:

ok so idek if this counts as a tradition im ngl my family is not very festive but whatever

but simon really enjoys (and is really good at) making popcorn and cranberry garland

i mean guys let's be real

simon is a seamstress at heart and on the surface

i mean it's not like he has the time to stop by the store and get someone else to sew his mask on for him

there's just something so therapeutic about sewing

and he really likes the sweet and tart smell of cranberries mixed with the buttery smell of popcorn

it sounds weird on paper but irl it's really good (i assume)

he also eats a lot more cranberries than he probably should but tbh who can blame him

on another note he also really likes making sugared cranberries and just keeping them in a bowl so he can snack on them

and i can't even blame him bc i tried them for the first time during thanksgiving and oml they slap

so yeah he honestly just lives for cranberry stuff

but ofc like everything else about his life this is a secret that can never come to life

but he will decorate his house with strings of popcorn and cranberry garland

also every year he always eats some by the end

kinda gross ik but like same

he doesn't eat the popcorn tho only the cranberries

and even then he pulls them all off and washes them

but he doesn't always eat much because they taste sorta weird by then

but yeah ghost is an ocean spray cranberry juice kinda guy

john "soap" mactavish:

soap absolutely loves gift exchanges

white elephant, secret santa, or just general gift giving

it doesn't matter soap loves them all

he loves to see who he gets and to buy presents for them

and ofc he loves getting presents in return

plus he really likes seeing just how much thought and effort everyone puts into their gifts

and he always keeps a camera on hand during gift opening so he can try and get that perfect moment of surprise

he's gotten a few good shots but a lot of them are really blurry

he's not the best photographer okay

but yeah he just loves seeing everyone so happy

his favorite one is probably white elephant though

because the randomness adds to the fun

and he likes to be able to look back at some weird object and be reminded of the good memories

rodolfo "rudy" parra:

okay so call it corny call it cheesy call it lame

actually don't call it lame i will fight you

but whatever

anyways rudy really likes taking christmas family photos

his family does one every year on christmas day and he lives for it

one of his uncles is a photographer so it works out anyways

and they always get the family matching pjs or outfits or costumes or something

and his family has a whole album of them

so he literally has like a christmas picture every year since he was a baby

his favorite one was a few years back where his grandpa was santa, his grandma was mrs. claus, his parents, siblings, and him were elves, and then his nieces and nephews were reindeer

he keeps that one on a frame in his desk

and it's cool to see how every year the crowd gets bigger and bigger as people get married and have kids

and guys it's been happening for a while but i am a rudy girl at my core

i can't help it im sorry

alejandro vargas:

honestly i feel like alejandro really likes advent calenders

he doesn't even really know why it just gives him something to look forward to everyday

before his break starts he always brings rudy over to open the day's gift with him too

he usually gets different calenders every year

some years he gets ones that have candy or chocolate

and other years he gets some with pocket knives or tools

is that a thing?

tactical advent calenders?

idk they should be

sometimes when he's feeling especially festive he'll get himself a few different ones that way he can have multiple things to look forward to

his favorite one is the neuhaus chocolate ones

he really has to fight the urge to sneak one in a day early

idk alejandro's just a fan of chocolate in general

but like fancy chocolate not just like hershey's

he needs truffles or cadbury or specialty chocolate

is cadbury even fancy?

idk i've never had one
