#bc he's my fav char ever

[arlcchin]

I have a sweet/angsty headcanon that Michael loves like a dog but since hes literally one of the strongest archangels hes afraid of being with MC.

So. Yk , something like admiring someone from afar,and if anything happend to them he would definitely teleport out of nowhere and make up some excuse "oh yeah i was just really close"

- i think this would be Explained the best with the song "Sarah" by Alex G.

He would always visit MC in their dreams to make sure theyre sleeping well, but again those dreams are just dreams. Because theres a fear of losing them and losing everything he has.

He can only be intimate and close to MC in the dream.

"I can't be what you need

I am stuck in a dream

I am stuck in a dream"

"Don't you know she's been here all along in a dream?

She belongs in a dream"

I feel like, even if u give him fake promises or any promises he will hold onto it and cling onto it because he knows and thinks u are a good person ,and because he gen loves u.

(I also want to mention i want to give him a hc he has separation anxiety bcs i have it so i just want to relate to my fav char).

So if you ever try to leave him prepare for a mental breakdown

"Every day I'll make promises that plague Sarah's heart

So I can watch her fall apart

'Cause I know when I break her down

We'll spit on all the happy clowns that live around this sunny town

She loves me like a dog

And when we mess around, I'll let her know the truth

I can't rely on hope with fate

And every time I wake, I second guess the game I play

Did I make a mistake?"

(Hope any of this makes sense bcs im literally not a writer😔)

[d0not-disturb]

Thanks me later🤩🤏

yashiro died, hanako didn't get over her death, and now she's dating s/o, and he forces them to be identical to yashiro 🤗🤗

Headcanuns

Im so sorry that it took so long. I was too busy trying to find fanfics of my fav char since i requested too much in the past and felt guilty requesting others lol

That’s actually an intresting request ngl hope i wont mess up

Tagging @under-the-cherrytree bc she is the best hanako simp I’ve met

Hanako forcing his Darling to act like yashiro

Ofc he would never get over yashiro‘s death

He blames himself for her death

She meant so much to him

They were best friends(if not more)

So when he met you

He just felt the urge to be with you

As if being with you will bring back yashiro

You reminded him so much of her

You noticed how he scilently stared at you while you were cleaning the bathroom

„Whats wrong hanako?“

He quickly snapped out of his thoughts

„Huh? Oh nothing nothing i was just dreaming“

„Dreaming about w-„

„Donuts“

„Man You’re acting weird today“

Kou was just silently cleaning too exept HE has an idea of what or should i say WHO hanako dreamed about

He himself still can’t get over yashiro‘s death and also feels like its his fault

„Hey hanako.i know its hard b-„

„SAYYYYY s/o have i ever told you that i love your DAIKON legs so much?“

„Huh? Daikon legs? Heh i actually never thought of them being compared to daikons you’re a funny one hanako“

Wait what?

Nonono thats not the reaction he wanted

He wanted you to punch him insult him be mad at him just like yashiro

„You aren’t mad that i called your legs like that?“

„Oh please its a harmless joke i can’t be mad at you for such little thing“

You were weirded out lately from hanako he asked you to do so many weird stuff

First he asked you to weird this weird looking skull on your uniform

Second To feed the mokke‘s around

Third Make you clean the toilets

Fourth Be bff‘s with aoi

Fifth to go on the weirdest adventures with him and kou

Then some cute 2 hairclips

You thought that he gifted you those things

Like maybe he asked kou to buy these things so that he can gift them to you

Oh how wrong you were

You got the chills after kou told you everything

You are wearing items from a dead girl??? Yickes

You don’t know if you should storm off and go home or have a big talk with him

Kou told you to better go home he will come up with an excuse on why you left early

You thanked him and went home

The next day you were not wearing the items of that girl

You were a bit worried on what will happen between you and hanako

But you don’t wanna stay in a relationship where your partner imagines a other girl every time he sees you

You were snapped back to reality after hanako suddenly showed up at your seat

„Heyyyy my beloved one~ wait…where are the items i told you to wear???“

„Hanako…“

You stood up and placed the items on the desk

„Im sorry…but i cant be the one you want me to be“

And just like that you left the classroom

While hanako couldn’t even move a bit

Only stare at yashiro‘s items and realising more and more of what he did

Its now all up to hanako wether he is ready to love the actual you or just let this be the last conversation with you

Thank you so much for the request! Please visit again!!!

I got kazuha and now I am desperately trying to get al haitham 🥴 I don't need him because I have the lil cabbage toddler as a driver but

He is so fine jfc when I saw him teased before sumeru and there was rumours about him being a bow char (I sobbed at this icl I cannot stand bows im so bad with them) I was like :O I need him immediately hes so pretty

Anyway I ended up skipping him the first time idr who for. This time I HAD to get kazuha bc I've been waiting for him for AGES 😭

Desperately wishing hoping al haitham will grace my pulls i have a haran waiting for him... a whole lvl 90 haran which I pulled for ayato before getting mona instead so that was nice

Keep me in ur prayers

i literally pulled ayato impulsively one day during his banner. i was supposed to skip him and save and then i just did it bc he was hot and….bub look away if you’re reading this….but i regret it 😭 i hardly ever use ayato and i high key hate his build so i just stare at him very salty like :/ ihy 😒 SOBS i should’ve gotten raiden instead im so sad fjsjdjsjf

but it’s ok it’s fine i got a hot dude to add to the list of hot dudes i own so !! it’s fine !!!!!!! atp i have all my favs (minus eula—but that’ll change soon hehe) so now everyone i pull will be for strategic team purposes only. like kokomi. i want her so i can have the ayaka shenhe kazuha and kokomi freeze team. and raiden would be super nice to have. zhongli too. sobs we will see how luck treats me 😔

FAVORITE AND LEAST FAVORITE NEEDFUL THINGS CHARACTERS??

JUST SAW THIS YAYAYAYZAJZHZ

time to ramble abt needful things 😈

IDONT HAVE A *FAVORITE* FAVORITE NEEDFUL THINGS CHARACTER AT THE MOMENT SO ILL LIST SOME !!!!

LONG ASS POST AHEAD

Leland gaunt:

first original favorite character in the book tbh!!!! probably bc he gets introduced so early but whatever 😼

hes such an interesting character, all throughout the book. FUCK having leland gaunt as an old man i WILL make him this sorta middle aged guy because i CAN GRAHH !!!! I'd get into a bit more abt him but i REALLY DONT wanna spoil the book 🐟

Alan Pangborn:

I think hes the type of the character that went from "okay cool character whatever" to " wait hes actually really cool" . ALSO last week i couldnt STOP DRAWING HIM. I DONT KNOE WHY

again FUCK the way he looks in the needful things movie i am never getting over that one image of him from the movie he looks like all of those blue eyes memes istg. I hc him with blue eyes but NOT the eyes that the movie gave him. when i say blue i mean the non creepy kind because BLUE didnt mean BLUE BLUE oh my god. wait. or maybe i hc him with brown eyes??? i dont know both would be a cool option

Norris Ridgewick:

NORRIS FANS WYA 🗣🗣 100% has to be in this list for sure !!! hes also close friends with alan so thats rlly cool 😼 him and alan are one of the best duos ever !! polly [another char] doesnt exist (NO SHAME ON POLLY SHES A COOL CHARACTER BUT I DONT THINK WE REALLY GOT TO SEE MUCH OF NORRIS AND ALAN AND WE MORESO GOT ALAN AND POLLY [ but then again polly and alan are supposed to be in a relationship so FINE STEPHEN KING.... smh /lh])

ALSO SIDE NOTE I THINK ALAN AND NORRIS APPEAR IN OTHER STEPHEN KING BOOKS LIKE THE DARK HALF OR WHATEVER IT WAS CALLED!!! GOTTA READ THOSE BOOKS THEY WERE IN I NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THE FUCKED UP FICTIONAL TOWN IN MAINE AND ALL ITS PEOPLE NOW!!!!!!!

Nettie cobb:

Shes pretty cool !!!! she kinda deserved better in the book i dont know WHY wilma had this grudge against her (I think it was explained somewhere,, maybe it wasnt? idk) but the rivalrys kinda interesting. Nettie calls Wilma the"Crazy polish woman" sometimes in the book and i found that funny. wait holy shit new pickup line just dropped "Hey girl.... Are you Wilma Jerzyck? Cause youre MY crazy polish woman" I THOUGHT THIS WAS FUJNT

Ace merril:

I AM SO MAD HE DIDNT APPEAR IN THE NEEDFUL THINGS MOVIE. LIKE OHTMYGSJDBS GRAHHHH 🤬🤬💔💔 whatever cause if he did appear they'd probably make him look like whats one of the best ways to put it. "Cool guy" but in the annoying way stereotype. Hes a character who shows in the middle of thr book yet i dont see many people talking abt him

AND FOR LEAST FAVORITE CHARACTERS??? UHH.... i dont think I have much really... or any idk either i have an "ehh 🧐🤨😕" mood abt them, an interesting "🧐😱😼" or a "FAV !!!! HRAJH 🗣🗣🗣" mood abt them and p much everyone goes under the interesting or fav category thingy minus like one or two people but they like barely appear

ANYWAYS I THINK TJYATS ALL. if i added others Id probably just add all of the fucking characters 😼😼 BUT THANK YOU FOR ASKING THIS I NEEDED TO TALK ABT NEEDFUL THINGS (NOT *NEEDED* BUT YK)

[newtscamandersbf]

small rant on the scene of neville’s boggart and jkr in general lol

tbh sev and remus r my fav chars ijdk how to feel abt the whole boggart scene? like i dont think he shouldve humiliated sev that way, but we do need to remember that jkr is transphobic as shit unfortunately. i cant ever imagine remus as being bigoted or transphobic/queerphobic though? we still need to remember that this was the 90s, and reps/scenes such as these were common in 90s/2000s media and the years before that. this scene also very much feels like jkr simply projecting on her fav character because it very much goes against what we know of remus and sev; remus felt bad for sev, but couldnt bring himself to tell his friends to stop because he thought they would drop him. he tried to tell them to stop once, but they didn’t listen, and he never tried again. he never participated in the bullying, nor helped snape; just watched from the sidelines, as he didn’t want sev to think he was like his friends/found family but also didnt want them to think he was 'betraying' them or something.

i like to imagine many things in hp in my own version of canon, and that involves this scene; i prefer to have it be remus telling neville to imagine snape doing something very out-of-character for him, which would be funny. for example singing, or dancing, etc..

in my books (no pun intended), he only told neville to imagine severus wearing his grandma’s clothes as his 'riddikulus' because the way nev’s grandma dresses looks funny (at least from remus’ pov). and just imagining severus dressing in a way completely different from how he usually dresses is funny, not because he’s in drag. i wouldnt even rlly consider that drag? while it was likely jkr trying to make fun of drag queens i dont think that was remus’ intention (does that make sense?). i think he told him to imagine sev wearing his grandma’s clothes bc nev’s grandma admittedly dresses in a way that looks funny/weird on her as well, and imagining such a serious and all-black man such as severus wearing it would be funny because of how out-of-character that is. i might just be biased bc remus is one of my comfort characters, and i’m just delusional, but hey.

the whole boggart scene in general makes me uncomfortable as a trans and queer person, and because i view sev as trans-coded or at least queer-coded. but i also view remus as queer-coded (not only bc of the lycanthropy, it’s his general vibe and the fact jkr /neg wrote him in the same way that she writes the 'good' hp mothers, not to mention his interactions with sirius and the fact david thewlis and the director themselves thought he was gay, but the allegory of his lycanthropy being his queerness also makes sense in an uncomfortable way? because if you take remus being outed as a werewolf, then quitting his job as a teacher [one of the only jobs he was ever able to get because of who he is] since he knows the parents will view him as a danger to the children, it sounds like a reference to homophobia. a very bad and admittedly anti-queer accidental queer-coding, but still. anyways we’re getting side tracked), and i genuinely cannot bring myself to see him as bigoted or in any way discriminating. to me that whole scene was just jkr projecting, which i think she unfortunately does a lot.. ew..

either way. the scene made me uncomfortable because it brings me back to my middle school, but both remus and sev are my fav characters and both remus making fun of snape in that way and snape outing him as a werewolf were shitty things to do and i don’t know whose part i should take.

when in doubt lets just blame all the problems on jkr. i hate her. i hope she perishes. the rest of u have good day tho ily, let me know what u think lol

[bunycube]

Hi, friend 💕

Me again. I'm here to give you FE3H and TOH of you want ✨

YAAAAA NESSA!!!!!! i do want to i like talking about things i like hiii

fe3h -

blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most) : its not that true anymore but ill still say edelgard considering how much i lost my shit over her back when i was actively playing the game. also dorothea

scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped) : idk probably bernadetta. i kinda dont like how exagerated her behaviour can be at time for funsies value but also id tuck her in and kiss her good night and kill anyone who wishes her harm

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave) : where's the manuela love. i love this mess of a woman. her tag is SO dry i still cant believe it. and WHY is she only ever with hanneman dear LORD

glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week) : i have no idea. maybe the monastery's cats. its been too long for me to remember a char like that 😭 i wont say that one guard bc hes far too well known to count

poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave) : i mean i feel like edie fits the controversial part but she doesn't feel like a poor little meow meow. i dont like dimitri i cant say that. whos a poor little meow meow in this game??? is linhardt one?? ill put him here just so people know i like him. there u go.

horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason) : i am throwing lorenz into the meat grinder as we speak :-) hes funny but hes funnier when terrible things happen to him

eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell) : idk. rhea maybe. not in a mega hate way though i dont have anyone i viscerally hate really. or annette's dad etc etc.

toh (i still havent finished s2) -

blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most) : mmmh idk..... i dont have any HUGE fav bc i like most chars honestly but i do have a special fondness for lilith

scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped) : i like king :)

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave) : do the blight twins count. i remember liking them theyre silly. the school's principal also i think hes a nice guy

glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week) : god only knows

poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave) : i feel like if u stopped at s1 i could still say lilith but otherwise. idk. who the hell even is controversial

horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason) : funnily enough. also lilith. put that lady through situations RIGHT NOW

eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell) : BELOS????? or that one guy who was trying to capture the not-luz creature i forgot their name

[skeletap]

Random typical question that every tumblr artist probs gets at some point but: who are your top 5 fictional characters? (Top 10 if it's too hard to narrow down to 5!)

Oh boy, I hope this doesn't say anything about me.

Skeletap. Skeletor and Spinal Tap get #1 because I cannot seperate them. Ever.

(This got long bc i included pictures. Putting it under a readmore)

2. Batman from Batman vs Dracula solely because he's the first character I hyperfixated on and had a huge crush on him as a kid lol. Even had an OC I shipped w/him and wrote fics in a notebook about them beating Batman.

3. Worf from Star Trek. I could include a ton of other chars from ST on this list (Garak, Sisko, Grilka, Jadzia... honestly most of the DS9 cast) but I gotta say I really like Worf a lot. I was originally trying to get a nice pic to send of him but this made me laugh so here this instead:

4. Patrick B. I could write an essay on my personal theories of AS. But I won't let my other hyperfixation get the best of me so i'll just command that somebody please hit this man with an orbital laser cannon instead.

5. Jared/Brown Widow from VB. If we want to talk about hyperfixating.. um... I was.. kinda a big fan of Jared (and funfact: teenager me created the jareddean ship) lol

6. (bonus fav) okuyasu. no joke this character single-handedly is the most character i would want to be besties with. he is literally the best. and my friend.

[northofneverland]

wendy !! omg im so glad u liked my tooru drabble thank u for the tags ^-^ i was actually thinking of writing a longer version of it! a fully fleshed out one shot that delves into reader n oikawa’s relationship through the photos bc i feel like i could have gone into so much more detail! also also!! i will definitely be writing a dad series dont u worry (and by dad series i just mean writing more fics about the hq boys being dads lmao) so if u ever have any ideas u know where my inbox is eheheh

It was perfect Char! If you have a tag list for your work I'd love to be added to it! A lot of my favs have been posting work that I keep missing and I don't want to miss your fics. ❤️ ALSO fics like your Oikawa one remind me why he was my first HQ crush.

[weirdbed]

whose ur fav yakuza char

none of them ‼️‼️‼️

sorry you're getting detail. i actually did a tier list

obviously i love kiryu and majima ect but everyone loves them and i like talking about my strange favs so we're setting them aside for now.

the top three living rent free in my head:

numba 1 obviously akira nishikiyama my favoritest man. i could talk about him for hours and hours. not a strange fav because he's fairly popular but im basically the patron saint and i know him better than everyone (/j). i like his crying styles and how he (and his sister) was doomed from the day he was born. i want to be him, i also want to give him a hug. and a gun. just an actual perfect character.

second is tanimura, goofy street cop who is also just a major asshole. the coolest thing he ever did was throwing away his badge and then doing all those flips and shit, and also beating his bosses ass. based thailand rep, rgg bring him back so he can have sloppy sex with date <- huh,,, who said that. i feel like no one likes him except for me bc im the only one who bothered to do his substories and get his lore. he's a puppy to me.

number threeeeee im gonna pair them together: kashiwagi and kazama. guy with dark ambient swag and worlds shittiest father respectively. kazama is just straight up evil and kashiwagi is just like, "well thats the grind #respeckt" and goes along with it. he may have a little crush on kazama. also kashiwagi loves weird fucked up food combinations, perhaps has a bit of the tism. kashi and kazama 4eva <3

honorable mention: yuko nishikiyama. she straight up isnt a character we never see her face. BUT SHE IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME!!!!!!!!! i need her frolicking with her big brother in a field of sunflowers immediately. ive written and drawn her so much. yuko my baby sweet baby im so sorry rgg hates women.

BONUS: all the characters in the kill yourself catagory and why:

richmond: american

riona: racist to my main man mitsuo

kamon kanai: kept stunning me when i played 5 and made me mad. also kidnapped haruka.

jingu: fucking everything. reason why nishiki is dead

saito: PISSED ME THE FUCK OFF EVERY TIME I PLAYED 4 FUCK YOU SAITO SHOVE THAT STUN BATON UP YOUR STUPID ASS

terada: thwomp looking ass

yoshinobu suzuki and ryuzo tamiya: politicians

baby: made me lol

[ungirthed]

want to make a place for my thots of anything with no viewers if i remember to come on here. i cant believe i keep having to make these since i end up getting followers and interacting. but i'm an adult with shit to do irl and things to fight and this fandom is almost 20y old so idt i will do that. lol. just finished atla like 20y too late cos my parents hated me and my bro watching tv growing up. journaling/blogging thots!!! ugh. i wish i didnt hve adhd and dyspraxia lmao gonna split them up so i dont get overwhelmed reading my bullshit. if u stumble upon this it doesnt make sense sry

politically a lot of critique that i have to think about. character and plot wise it was pretty good and tight esp for a kids show. amazing female characters. can't wait for the bi agenda from LoK but i may take a while for that. p much i have to say these are great characters and i could talk a lot about them but i'm shocked at what i took away with regards to the romantic rships from the show and the characterization via it.

re love lines:

i wish kataang was written better in the show (MY opinion if any1 stumbles upon this). i don't ~ship~ zutara bc i am an adult and even back then no cos who cares lol but i see the appeal and am attracted to that. i do think we have to retire the trope of the "both sides but falling in love" not because it isn't possible but because post 10/7 (free palestine) i don't think it's worth it to look at it this way anymore. until someone proves themselves not worthy of death because of the resistance fighting back then they NEED TO PROVE THEMSELVES IMMEDIATELY. no more of this i'm in a concentration camp but he's a nazi bullshit. no more i'm a slave but he's the slave master's son (i mean in this case u could have been related but no1 listens to me!) it's repetitive, reductive, and untrue.

that being said: i just never care about the typical bildungsroman love story. you see the One Person bc i guess the kids tasked with saving the world have to be monk-adjacent (in aang's case quite literally) bc understandably theyre so fucked up lol. but it's always sooooo boring to me esp if it's f/m.

katara is such a complex character and mae whitman brings a wisdom to her voice that can be frustrating to connect with for me but her character arc, her strength, her MIND, her heart, and her fists. i think ppl probs like zutara the most when shes' going batshit and no one can understand aang's perspective. but aang is one of a kind and the cutest smartest sweetest loser ever. not my fav char but i love him. he's like if i had a younger brother and not an older one lmao.

of course they're (kataang) together. they were meant to be from the moment they saw e/o and that stupid cave kiss...this is why you don't wait until 32 to watch this lol.

but nothing surprised me and it was meant to be the way it was written. that's also why i find it understandable but shocking people in the universe and apparently outside of it were surprised at aang's turmoil over ozai. like are you joking? he's a 12 year old vegetarian monk. which: i loved his vegetarianism and obviously he was going to be but very casually they put in a line that hints as to why he would be and why many of us are...so i am dedicated to it again.

so wrt that and zutara...the episode where he's with her with the dude that killed her moms and his support of her i can see why people like them. the cave ep obviously but this show is veryyyyy free with affection i noticed and there's some jealousy but they all get over that pretty quickly. i read some of the comics and i could see different rships happening and i definitely think this world lends to queerness (me personally i love monogamy but a certain type lol so not rly interested in much poly but i do like a throuple) but i could see most being bi+ or having identified as that in the past, or labeling themselves but nto limiting. that's just an aside for meee...

so like katara was being katara. i could see suki and zuko being romantic but also a deep friendship that could be deeply affectionate either affect or physically or both bc that's who these ppl are. katara is a very intense person and that's part of why she can be annoying. that's part of why they ALL can be overwhelming. theyre intense, traumatized, repressed kids and teens with mostly good hearts (or just a person so disconnected from herself but also a fascist so u know. her going nuts lol)

hmm what else oh yea. so i came away with maiko......gjpasig the show was paced and plotted well. i am a libertarian communist (anarcho-commie) so MANNNNN i wish they did better on that front but again i must remember i am 32, ancom, and the world is diff. but anyway lmao so team avatar is who i would want to spend time with but i got so interested in mai and ty lee (mailee...). that beach ep conversation was so good, that whole ep, their argument. it was extremely teenage and showed how fucked up they all are. how confused and fucking lost and pathetic. how small their lives are. how boring....so mai...

[americanalien-b]

a nonbinary constantine. i’m in heaven.

[rabdoidal]

for d&d court (hope u arent getting tired of these asks haha):

your honor,

the case i bring before you is cold, and could be considered settled by the passage of time. however, i still think about it a lot, and the character involved was one of my all-time favs, so i beseech yourself and the court to hear it for closure if nothing else.

i joined a group running 5e and the “out of the abyss” hardcover in 2018. the dm introduced himself as a fan of OSR and “hardcore” roleplaying and promised he wouldn’t be pulling punches running the book, which is set in the underdark and pretty vicious at low level. i signed on for this and the party, indeed, endured lots of grueling encounters. i’m fuzzy on the details now (its been a few years), but we’d found ourselves in a sort of side cavern/tomb dealing with either a demilich or some other undead spellcaster. the main hazard beyond that enemy was a sort of deadly mist that inflicted damage on failed saves.

the party is in a bad way. i’m playing a battlemaster fighter with mostly support techniques bc i like to help back up clerics/bards, but i’m also playing a dex fighter dual-wielding, so i’m not tanky. there’s a lot riding on my turn but i also only have like 5 hp left. the dm calls on me and i get to work— attacking, using a battlemaster technique to give out some temp hp, action surging for more damage, etc. all this to say, it’s a full turn and things are looking up for us. then the dm goes “wait, i forgot to have you roll a save for the mist. go ahead and do that now.” and i do. and i fail. and the damage is enough to down my character. and he says that since that roll should’ve happened at the beginning of my turn, he’s applying it retroactively, and my turn never happened. our cleric couldn’t get to my fighter in time to stabilize me after, so i took damage from the mist while downed and died permanently (along with the cleric, everyone else got saved by late-arriving npcs).

i took this as my cue to gracefully leave the campaign, bc my char dying on the floor to an ambient effect left a very bad taste in my mouth and i concluded i just wasn’t interested in continuing with that group/dm. but ive been haunted ever since by the question: do i have a right to be angry about what went down? applying the save retroactively is i think what the rules would require, but bc it was dm error and i had played out my entire turn, i feel like the failed save and consequences should’ve happened at the end? my char might still have died, but prob not the cleric. and ever since, i can’t mentally shake the char’s death, so i haven’t had the heart to just ignore it and remake her in a new campaign.

thanks in advance for your insight and judgment, from me and the unquiet ghost of tova, the tiefling fighter.

Hey there! I do think rules as written, the save should've happened at the top of your turn, but it was absolutely the DM's responsibility to keep track of their AoE conditions - personally I usually do rolls like that at the end of a turn because I'm nice, but even for a hardass DM, I think making it retroactive is a bit harsh, especially considering battlemasters have a lot to do in terms of initiative economy. I think a middle ground solution would have been to do a luck roll off between you and the DM to see if the effect took place before or after your turn, or perhaps allowed you to take 1 attack rather than both.

Unfortunately, brutal campaigns, while fun and engaging for long-time players, do give you a sense of detachment from your character. If they're just some meatbag that can die during any given session, there isn't that effect of heightening tension - its all tense all the time. It sounds like that isn't your type of play style, considering how attached you were to Tova. I hope you found a campaign (and a DM) more your style in the years since!

I know Gintama has a lot lot moments and hints between almost ALL the characters, among all kinds of kink you may have: love-hate relationship, funny, rivals, comrades, SM or even love btw unemployed and bottom of the world men is shippable. All you have to do is pick the one that matches your fav

But the reason I ship GinZura, is because with them, and only with them, I can feel the vibe of FAMILY. Truly, I've never felt more HOME anywhere than where Gintoki and Zura be together, especially with Shinpachi and Kagura there too. Just look at this scene

JUST LOOK AT THAT DAMN SCENE! There is no one ever fit in that scene, as well as the Yorozuya family, better than Zura. He is soft. He is sweet. He is silent. He is sacrificing. And most of all, he is CARING. Sorry I'm not tryna femininize Zura, but he really has the caring of a mom

I've read/watched tons of fictional works. And I surely did ship a lot. My couples across fandoms contain ALL the kinds I mentioned, and I love all of it, and Gintama has all of it. But I don't ship any else in Gintama besides GinZura, bc I truly have never ever seen a HOME relationship like this before. And when I see it, it becomes unbeatable to me.

However when everyone from all other Gin x XXX couples say something like this char is Gin's ex, that char is Gin's current boyfriend, that girl is his masochist, that boy is his sadist, that guy is his lover,... I don't feel uncomfortable, because they don't collapse with me

To me, Zura is no lover nor boyfriend to Gintoki. He's just that wife silently sits behind the crowd and looks at his famous husband being shipped with everyone on the stage. And at the end of the day, they're home together. That's all

(Uhmm... if it's not all, then Gintoki maybe even complains how annoying the crowd is, and that he's tired like all other celebrities are. Then Zura will have to comfort him with a family dinner he soon has prepared)
