I'll prob read the manga but for now. I get that the focus (just like any shonen) is other elemente: youth, world building, tensions from the story, emotional growth &c. But I'm pissed that we (anime watcher here) only see Yuki now. Up to now everyone is somewhere on the pro jujutsu world scale. Reformist at best (Gojo).
I want characters who want to uproot this feudal order. LET YUKI SPEAK

read baizhu’s stories. he wins for most balanced character of all time
#and i mean this in terms of lore vs plot relevance and personality traits#i still haven't pulled him but thats fine (coping) sigh he's so idk enriched as a character#like his stories are obv focused on. well himself but they have a lot of nice lore details like his contract w changsheng and some immortali#immortality mentions ig. idk how to describe it also the elaboration on the r/ship between life and death >>>>>>#can't believe he goes to dinner at wfp sometimes lmao?? him and hu.tao be like 'cant stand this bitch 1 min later me and the bestie' /jjjjjj#just kidding i could never water down a nuanced relationship to a joke meme#when they mentioned how he hu tao and zhongli come together and only truly meet heart to heart when conducting last affairs... good stuff#anyways i like him. please come home now i dont want to have to go to 80 pulls for you#back to the lore relevance its nice that his story quest also elaborated on like how god remains affect people and callback to the chi of yo#yore world quest wayyy back#think im pretty satisfied for how his character personality etc turned out after 2 yrs of waiting like some of the hate was so bad lol just#bc of qiqi's stories but like his stories did a nice balance between selfless but sees all transactions as useful ones and does good but wit#with knowledge that it will also benefit his own reputation and image. selfishly selfless search for immortality clever but caring etc etc#he's got a solid head about him and now i want in depth character analysis fics when there are none on ao3 pensive pensive#ramblings!#baizhu

Hiiiii.
Sorry to bother you, I wanted to know if you had any fic recs? Your writing is so good and your tastes are immaculate, and I am starving for any kind of good content. Please?
its not possible to bother me love dw <3
NOW. i dont actually read all that much anymore bc i am horrendously picky but this does give me an excuse to hype up the few authors that have satisfied my unreasonably specific tastes 🤩.
so. a few bsd recs for you (except theyre 99% skk because im horribly predictable forever). everyone go read all of these and tell the authors how wonderful they are in the comments please <3
anything @booksandpaperss has ever written is genius work and everyone should read it. could talk abt all of their stuff for hours (and i have🤩 they put up w so much of me bothering them godbless). also our brains do some accidental crazy mind melding shit whenever either of us write fic so if you like any of my stuff you will like theirs. thats the rules. <3
like twin stars in the dark (we collide)- dead apple skk porn as a vehicle for 22skk analysis. makes me salivate i have read it so many times. they get 22skk better than anyone🙏
my lies are for you to keep (my love for you to lose) - the only take on beastskk that matters to me ever. you can actually see me losing my mind in the comment i wrote on this fic bc of how fucking insane every single line made me. theres SO much packed into this thing its fucking crazy i NEEEEED everyone to read it. thats all <3
till death, I'll give you my breath - dazai death timeloop. this fic terrifies me so much i await every update with my teeth chattering and my heart pulsing so rapidly i should be hospitalised. the first scene of chapter 2 genuinely had me on the verge of tears im unwell about it.
(elli also has some jjk stuff thats REALLYREALLY good and if ur into jjk u should check that out too.)
NOW. aside from being a propaganda machine for my fav writer ever. Heres some other stuff i love.
the second perspective by @wildflowerteas. murder mystery/detective noir stuff w some time fuckery. the au of all time. mashes aspects of beast, canon, and some extra special niko sauce into a mixing bowl and goes crazy w it. just Such a genuinely impressive piece of writing. i could talk abt the technical brilliance of it for hours but i will stop myself. you gotta commit to this thing because it WILL make u crazy. also i loveee the sskk. its like if we had the beast first meeting sskk forever. SOSO GOOD!!!!
did fate guide the gun or did you? by @kanetheo. i read this pretty soon after chapter 109 and it genuinely fried my brain for months. the writing style is beautiful (as for everything they write AUGHH!!!) and the angst is delectable. the way it intersperses more fun silly skk moments with just. complete misery. GOD. it just hits. ive reread it quite a few times and it never fails to make me go crazy. srsly cannot rec this enough.
the decomposition of dazai osamu by @hella1975 this shot several bullets through my brain and i still havent recovered. i keep thinking 'oh i should reread that' and then i dont bc some part of my brain still concerns itself w maintaining whats left of my sanity. BUT its crazy good and everyone should read it and suffer at least once. EVERYONE LOVES YOU OSAMU!!!! EVERYONE EATS YOU!!! line of all time lets all kill ourselves.
smoke held conversations by feralrookie - i havent reread this in a while but it does cool stuff with nlh and the skkisms are really good in this too. ppl often write teen chuuya as less intelligent than he actually is. hes very observant, esp of dazai, and this fic gave me that 🙏
i called your name til the fever broke by forest_raccoon - vampire chuuya. biting is involved. i blacked out reading it. enough said.

okay but i actually kinda wanna know ur take on stridercest being canon compliant O_O <- autism stare
oh hey i am also hitting you with the autism stare. ill try to get my thoughts down in a way that makes sense to more than just me hahaha
bear in mind that im an epilogue lover and i think Meat/Candy are really valuable pieces that further all of the characters and are also hard canon in the sense that we're looking at just 2 post-game universe outcomes out of an uncountable number (the book in the picnic basket representing post-canon fanfic). i think the characters actions in the epilogues make sense and are satisfying to me. yes even jane (i love alpha jane and i will not do her the disservice of 'cleaning her up' w/o showing her work for it. thats not how you depict a character who grew up with fascist programming). i could totally go on a whole tangent about this specifically but thats another post lol we'd be here forever and its also not stridercest
but okay. canon stridercest. under the cut cause it got kinda long
basically it has to do with the cherubs and how their relationships and mating rituals are pretty obviously incestuous leaning even though cherubs dont have the human concept of Siblings or blood family. the cherub who predominates will search across paradox space to mate with another cherub who closely resembles the cherub they predominated which is like textbook Freudian sexuality. theres a lot of Freud and Jungian stuff in HS imo even if im kinda [wobbly hand gesture] at the validity of these theories applied to real life and real people. but theyre super fun tools and lenses to use in fiction and i mean. gestures at all of dave
so the incest aliens cherubs. the whole reason why im talkin about them is bc Caliborn is so incredibly interested and invested in the Striders in particular. caliborn as both Lord English and Lil Cal shapes earth NOT OVERTLY but more so embeds himself in earth society, but again, the Striders lives in particular. dave is full of incest jokes. hes even apparently got a list of his friends arranged in order of how likely theyd incest-elope with each other (thank you epilogues for this amazing factoid). he seems to think about it often enough to, yknow, Do That. have a good solid think about that and construct an organized list about it. bearing in mind dave makes jokes about stuff thats a) bothering him, or b) generally camping out in his brain. hes not even really aware of it most of the time (as we see in one of the openbounds where hes all 'why am i thinking about puppets???' after seeing dirk for the first time in that dream bubble. he is thinking nonstop about dirk at that point and going off his only frame of reference for ANY dirk, which is his bro. his bro who was most likely deeply warped by Lil Cal)
sorry for the long blocky paragraph lol. but now onto the next thing
Caliborn as Lil Cal is the centerpiece in the beta strider apartment. dave cant escape him and beta dirk grew up with him. what the fuck do you do when youre childhood comfort item is also the most evil creature across all of paradox space? if youre a dirk you try to fight it. but how long can you keep fighting something like that. its safe to say that bro was affected by Caliborns particular brand of perversion and sfw kink. i dont think i have to say how insidious abusive and toxic he is about those things. and looking at the truth of beta bro (16yo alpha dirk) you can start to see just how warped beta bro became. beta bro is a false dirk (still a very Real dirk but not the Truth of dirk. beta bro has been toxified and made infinitely worse by an absolute evil influence over decades of life. in 80s fuckin texas. presumably in the system. anyone would be fucked up after that)
so for this analysis/theory im stating beta bro as a false persona. using jungian terms he is apha dirk's shadow
both dave and dirk live with a fake, carefully manicured version of their bros. they live with personas (or shadows of their guardians on the walls. hello platos allegory of the cave). they dont actually know e/o and they dont until the striunion
alpha dirk especially grows up embedded in the Public Persona Of Dave Strider 400 years post mortem and completely alone with unlimited internet access. hes a self admitted expert on his bro and we dont get to see a lot if any of his early childhood but i can hazard a guess at how much he clung to that persona of his bro. he fuckin idolizes dave. he LOVES dave. right off the bat he is in some kind of love with dave and i think if you try to argue against that then thats you slippin. i think youre a fool and have to reread homestuck because i wholeheartedly believe the striders loving eachother is part of the win state
once again this is speculation cause we get barely anything about alpha dave, but from what we already know about him im guessing this bro-persona is
achingly effortlessly cool
oozing masculinity (toxic or not, not really interested in categorizing that although toxic coolboy masculinity IS something the striders contend with & is an important facet in their lives)
a skilled fighter
a dedicated moviegoer (hes a director need i say more. this one is probably the only genuine thing about his on-screen persona)
and now lets look at jake. someone whos grown up on pretty much nothing but movies, whos doubtlessly been influenced by hollywood and its idea of gritty 'main character' masculinity through that, and who also clings to more old-school ideas of manliness (think victorian/edwardian era gentlemanly-but-loves-a-good-scrum kinda manly. moustache twirly with a monocle kinda manly. basically everything that grandpa harley is)
but okay lets look at what jake wants to be. lets take a look at his teenager persona
achingly effortlessly cool (his own 'hollywood star' kind of cool also def influenced by his favourite characters like lara croft who is indeed achingly cool. you see him succeed in inhabiting this hollywood star persona on earth c)
oozing masculinity (the old school manly mans-man kind)
a skilled fighter (two pistoles always. harder to aim cause you cant use a free hand to make up for kickback. that takes skill)
a dedicated moviegoer (again one of the only genuine parts about his persona. his questionable-to-wretched tastes aside. but bearing in mind that the SBaHJ movies are intentionally bad which is what makes them loop around to good. such is the nature of intentionally 'bad' art. jake fuckin lives in this perpetual bad-good art loop. okay enough with the art tangent keep focused man cmon)
because dirk has obviously way more contact with jake i dont doubt he sees through jakes own (admittedly way more flimsy) coolboy persona but the point still stands i think. different flavours but the same kinda guy. dirk has a type and i dont think its a stretch to say that hes looking for aspects of the bro-persona he grew up looking at in other boys, much like the winning cherub looking for the one they lost in the cherub theyll mate with
also wtf is with dirks obvious boner for dave chasing him across paradox space to decapitate him huh?? the last few sentences in Meat are about that very thing. he wants to fuc fight dave sooo bad. haha remember how the cherubic mating ritual is one of the most violent and long running spectacles in paradox space? i sure do

something so profoundly annoying about these videos i keep getting recommended of people reviewing splatterpunk books (w some clickbait ass title like "reviewing the MOST DISTURBING BOOK EVER" and its never that. like i have read more disturbing books myself and im fairly squeamish) and their "review" is always just.. reciting all the gross and fucked up things in the book and going "ewww!! its so gross and fucked up!!" and then ultimately declaring the book inherently bad for grossing you out and also always treating it like its a sort of garbage non-art not even worth considering seriously in the first place.
like babes its ok to not like splatterpunk. of all literary genres i think thats an extremely understandable one to just not be into categorically. but also if you dislike all books that are violent, gross-out and extreme and you definitely will not ever enjoy reading any book focusing on these subjects then i think your "review" of any splatterpunk book is essentially worthless. call it what it REALLY is: recounting all the fucked up gross shit from the book but without all the disgusting details so your audience can satisfy their morbid curiosity without having to actually read that shit. which i honestly think is fine to make as a video but just be straight with us. its not a review. you are not applying critical thinking or analysis to anything here. youre just retelling the gross shocking story but in a more digestible format because itll get clicks.

Now that you've finished utena and it's movies, what was your favorite part? Did you think the movie was a sequel? A retelling? Something else? Some scenes in utena are gonna stick w me till I'm in the dirt n id love to know if you had any like that :33
--
Omgosh!!!! This series 😭😭😭💖 ok bear with me im gonna have a LOT to say affgugyyythh endgame spoilers for Revolutionary Girl Utena the show and movie below
--
Fave parts of the show (in no particular order)
The third transformation scene when Anthy and Utena go to the arena together, badass, just one of the sequences ever
Utena's dorky lil stretches <3
The poisoned tea and biscuit scene
Badminton with Utena, Jury and Miki, along with Nanami ;_;
Miki's stopwatch. Still parsing out what it means but the animation and soundwork is so satisfying
The entire final act of the last episode wrecked me
Wakaba being there for Utena to help her snap out of her depression
Subsequent Utena vs Wakaba battle that breaks my heart into itty bitty pieces
The exploration of Utena's identity, and how she matured from "pretending to be a prince and the misconceptions of what that meant" to ultimately "being a prince"
Jury's backstory with Shiori and how it was visualized
Fave parts of the movie (in no particular order)
SHORT HAIR UTENA!! IN HER LIL BERET!!
The architecture of Ohtori is so cool
Love the opening sequence, especially when it pans up abruptly to the scene with Utena and her prince in silhouette
THEY KISS.
The partner drawing session
The dance <3
Chasing Anthy through the weird corridors of Ohtori after Jury's Duel
The farewell between Utena and Touga (how did they make me like Touga and Utena's relationship)
When they escape together from the maw of the castle in an explosion of roses, and the Shadow Girls guiding them and cheering them on turned out to be Utena and Anthy themselves!
THEY KISS!! AGAIN!!!!!
I actually love how obtuse and playful and surreal the series is, but in a way that's very intentional and gives you all the puzzle pieces to put together what's happening. After finishing the show I felt like I knew what it was about because the themes were so well visualized…… and then I watched one (1) youtube analysis video that made me realize that my understanding has barely scratched the surface of ANything lol. I was kinda embarrassed about it ngl, but I guess RGU is just one of those shows that do require multiple watches. I really, really do love how it's got multiple layers. I'd be happy if I could create a story that's half as clever and nuanced.
The movie was such an unexpected banger. I was told by a friend beforehand that the movie was a retelling+sequel hybrid. After watching it, to me it feels like an alternate version of the story that runs parallel to the one in the anime. Like…… a metaphor for the intention of the show, does that even make sense? I don't think the events or characters themselves are necessarily "canon" in a literal sense, but the philosophies and underlying character motivations are. I definitely see why everyone's like "oh the movie will clear up the themes of the show!! It's great!!" and I love how it clarifies the show by being 250% weirder LMFAO.
I also thought that the absurdity of "your girlfriend turns into a freakin car you drive towards freedom" was going to take me out of it, and it did at first. I was mostly scared for Utena because um that was a scary process, but tbh for the entire ending I had this huge smile on my face. And it was emotional for me even though it's ridiculous!! And that's because it's emotionally resonant!! And it metaphorically confirms for me that, even though Utena was in despair in the last moments we see her in the show, the endings of both the show and movie are ultimately fulfilling and---dare I say?---happy! Because both of them were wrung through the crucible that tore apart their identities, and they ultimately learned and grew, despite how hard and painful it was!
I'm also just so, so, so glad how lgbtq+ the characters and narrative are, and how neither show nor movie shied away from it (I was nervous that the movie was going to retroactively step back, but no, they made it GAYER). And plus how.... tactful and considerate they were when dealing with and visualizing heavier themes. Even the movie was very frank and intentional when portraying nudity. I appreciate that a lot.
What a masterful show. It's going to haunt me forever probably :)

Zodiac: Aries
INTERNAL: THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER
What is his/her greatest fear?  Being deprived and in pain
Inner motivation: To be satisfied and content: to have her needs fulfilled, to maintian her freedom and happiness, to avoid missing out on worthwhile experiences, to keep herself excited and occupied, to avoid and discharge pain
Kryptonite: Someone trying to control her (looking at you, Valentina)
What is his/her misbelief about the world?  If she just accumulates enough wealth and fun and experiences she can actually live the perfect, flawless, pain-free life and give it to her loved ones, too!
Lesson he/she needs to learn: Oops, that’s impossible and money certainly won’t buy it! (Just ask Edmund!)
What is the best thing in his/her life?  Her sisters!!  Her home!!  Fun and doing what she wants and exploring all the opportunities this life has to offer!!
What is the worst thing in his/her life?  Probably her stepmom and stepbro #gross No, but honestly most likely the death of her dad if she was old enough to remember him :( Her mom, too, but I'm not sure she ~does remember her?
What does he/she most often look down on people for?  Being controlled, being boring, an uncooperative spirit, a lack of vision, an unwillingness to help others (tho tbf her viewpoint on this is a lil skewed bc she often fails to see the things ppl need etc etc her heart is ultimately in the right place she’s just kinda spoiled and blind bc of it)
What makes his/her heart feel alive?  Adventure!  Laughter!  Inside jokes!  Exploring!  Riches and excitement!  A new frock!  Poetry that inflames her emotions (yes, she’s def rocking those Anne of Green Gables vibes esp when she was little – cue her renaming Goat Road to the Way of the Shephard or smth more poetic etc)!  Spending quality time with loved ones!  Etc, etc!
What makes him/her feel loved, and who was the last person to make them feel that way? Her sisters were most def the ppl <3  Being paid attention to, being supported and shown affection, having fun, quality time, shared fresh air and experiences, shared laughter, etc!
Top three things he/she values most in life?  Her loved ones, fun, security!
EXTERNAL: NOT NECESSARY, BUT GOOD TO KNOW AND SAYS A LOT ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER
What’s his/her favorite book, movie, and band?  She’d love the Idylls of the King!  Ivanhoe and pr much anything by Tennyson and Scott and all the other Romantic Poets!  She’d also love Narnia and Pippi Longstocking and Amelia Bedelia and all sorts of fun, fantastical things as a kid!  Re: tv Bridgerton would be a go-to, and, speaking of regency things, pr much all Jane Austen!  I feel like the most recent Emma, P&P, and Persuasion would be her fav movie adaptations (and tbh she’d probs have more patience for those than reading) but she would loooove S&S just in general all editions of it bc she’d suuuuuper relate to Marianne and the whole sister thing would obv get her right in the feels, also Little Women esp the most recent Amy!positive adaptation too for similar reasons etc!  Gilmore Girls!!  Daisy Jones & the Six!!  Florence + the Machine <3  Fairy tales in general!!! dua lipa, ava max, fleetwood mac
Is there an object he/she can’t bear to part with and why?  She probs has, like, a bracelet or hairpin or smth from her mom that is hella sacred to her but tbh she probs rarely wears it, instead choosing to keep it in this tiny ornamental box where she knows its safe and tbh itll probs get burned asp and she’ll probs have a breakdown bc of it bc im mean <3
Describe a typical outfit for him/her from top to bottom.  This girl is O B S E S S E D w clothes and far more so than i am tbh so i probs can’t even comprehend of the sort of sick fit she’d come up w but suffice it to say she’s always glammed out and rocking the latest trends and probs helping to set them too lbr i also feel like she’s REALLY good at, like, taking her mom’s old dresses and spicing them up to make them ahead of the latest trend or like even making smth completely new out of her bedroom curtains like they might not have much?? since they got an evil stepmom?? but even if so she still living that haute couture life!  the best seamstress in the land tbh lbr! ;D  she ~will find a way!  and everyone will be drooling to wear that next week when she’s already moved on to the next look ;D
What names or nicknames has he/she been called throughout their life?  Rosie to her sisters, Rose to her friends, Roisin to everyone else thank you very much
What is his/her method of manipulation?  Lol, she’s the worst smh anyway that would be guilt tripping, judging you, annoying you
Describe his/her daily routine.  Only gets out of bed when positively FORCED tbh and probs kinda cranky in the morning whoops but omg she comes alive at night and just out there having a stupid good time, def the life of the party type, pranking!! joking!! leaving Brigit doodles of Valentina's face after the latest prank lol, honestly she’s not really someone who holds to ~routine bc that’s the bane of her existence and noT exciting (tho she does actually lowkey thrive on one when its enforced so she goes on jags where she holds herself to this standard...and then gets bored of it or distracted by smth and lets it go haha), but catch her laughing and flirting and dancing and teasing and planning outfits and frankly being impulsive af #facepalm
Their go-to cure for a bad day?  Pranking their stepmom w Brigit!!  drawing!!  whatever the medieval!fantasty equivalent of, like, eating ice cream directly out of the container while watching Gilmore Girls is, putting on her fanciest dress and going to balls and dancing w ppl who look at her like she’s the moon in the sky, probs actually wearing that bracelet/pin she has from her mom for once! making her sisters laugh! general escapism of every kind tbh, exploring awesome places everything from creepy forests to exquisite castles yknow!!  new experiences and having fun w her loved ones in general <3  the medieval!fantasy equivalent of going to one of Gatsby’s parties, etc
CHARACTER GOALS:
How is your character dissatisfied with their life?  Well, she’s an orphan w Valentina (fc: ANJELICA HUSTON IN EVER AFTER ;D) for a stepmom so…i feel like that kinda speaks for itself hahaha plus she wants to save herself and her sisters!!  and obv she hasn’t done that yet so lots to be bummed about :/  fortunately, she’s got a handsome prince on the hook so things’re looking up in that dept! and she’s defffff not considering the huge possibility that ~that won’t last since his ambitious parents almost certainly have other plans for him than some rando orphan!!!! even if she ~is technically nobility (actually she ~does know this but she ain’t looking at that too close up bc she’s a world class ignorer of truths she don’t vibe with <3)  Anyway, basically she’d love to be rich and just important enough to be consulted and included on fun things but frankly noT important enough to have to deal w the bad (but she doesn’t really think about that second part too much ngl) and have fine parties and intellectual but funny convos and be admired and adored by the glittering throng and make her sisters’ lives better w a wink of her eye!!!! but obv this fantasy existence isn’t playing out so!!! dissatisfaction!!
What does your character believe will bring them true happiness or contentment?  Wealth and importance bc that’d allow her to solve all her current problems!  of course, it’d also create a host of new and perhaps worse problems, but!!!! she does not consider this!!!  in her mind, if she were wealthy and important she could fix everything and then it’d be all happily ever after for everyone a la a fairy tale!
What definitive step could they take to turn their dream into a reality?  Marry Edmund and become a literal princess/empress so she can save her sisters and really stick it to her stepmom or, failing that (besides, it'd be pr cool to be bowed and scraped to and wear a crown and a pretty dress!) or marry pr much any of the other male characters so far that aren’t resistance members! bc she's looking to marry rich so she can save her sisters!
How has their fear kept them from taking this action already?  Well, she’d be pr tied down as the wife of an important person and she values her freedom greatly!  how else is she supposed to bask in her precious distractions and adventures?  she couldn’t just take off for the woods at a moment’s notice or prank Amira (she’d probs be executed for that tbh ;D) or smth, plus – and this is the worst one in her mind – lbr she probs wouldn’t be able to see her sisters nearly as much and, gods, she doesn’t know how she’d ever, ever do w/o them!  So!  her solution?  ignore all of this and just hope things continue 100% the way they are rn, forever, problems and all!
How does your protagonist feel they can accomplish their goal while still steering clear of the thing they are afraid of?  Change, of any kind, is anathema!  everything stays the same <3  failing that (bc inevitably that one’ll collapse around her and she knows this), marry someone rich and handsome and powerful who adores her and buy her way to success <3

HI read one of ur asks abt isagi n shoyo and i just realised isagi n shoyo r so similar as protags in the sense that they keep fighting for what they want and they DO NOTTT give up no matter what other people say like they keep pushing themselves to be better even though they know they have their shortcomings as an athlete??? (as someone who LOVES hq too) i think the reason so many people who like hq also like bllk is bc it’s so obvious that there are better/more talented players in the sport apart from our protags but 1. u kinda get the thrill of rooting for the underdog to win and 2. throughout the series u get to see them really understand what theyre fighting for and build their passion for the sport and create a better version of themselves that’s able to keep up with everyone else (despite their aforementioned shortcomings!!!!) and THATS WHAT MAKES THEM SOOOO ENTERTAINING AND AMAZING TO WATCH i swear shoyo and isagi are the same person in different fonts (obv an exaggeration, i know some people are gomna take this too seriously 😭) and that’s my (summarised) analysis on why im so attached to bllk rn and how it relates to my obsession w hq
hi <33 omg yes yes! and one of my favourite details about haikyuu's ending is that shoyo didn't end up at the "top" ?? he wasn't ever the ace when he was in karasuno, and while he's definitely a poster boy for the MSBY/JNT it's not like he surpassed everyone else. he's not the best player in the world or anything, and i like how haikyuu stays realistic while still being so compelling and emotionally attach-able anyway 💓
mhm mhm the way isagi and shoyo both start off on low ranks, how they fight and train hard and hold onto their dreams — how they actually experience defeat not once or twice but many times ‼️ and how they do make it higher and higher while it all still stays within reason... i love that. even with other characters, we get to see them lose. we get to see them fail and i think that's what really makes characters more human to viewers. it's expected for the "main character" to win all the time and be at the top by the time their story ends. so it touches the heart a lot deeper when you see them lose. when you learn what they're fighting for, learn about how big they dream, and when you see them fall. (and again, i'm so fucking glad that with these two series failing ≠ death LMAOO)
haikyuu had a perfect ending and i really hope blue lock gives us something on the same level because really, i am SO obsessed with bllk i will feel so betrayed if it doesn't deliver a satisfying ending after how good it's going rn.

Duuude I also definitely will main this character so I made myself a PBE acc and I am telling you rn, that man will need 7000 buffs to actually have utility in team fights, I was doing 1v1s against standard mid lane stuff and seeing what items he'd use and the like but honestly? His W+Q needs a buff bc there's NO WAY that the fucking AP it takes at max lvls and with full build will only increase 15%. IT GOES FROM 30% TO 45% AND THEN?? that shit is nowhere near a taxi (legit any character with Youumus will beat him) to team fights and his shield is also super weak like an EKKO AD not even AP had a stronger shield and even though Hweis increases over time if you stand in the circle its still weaker because by the time your shield increases the base one it gives as soon as you pop W+W will already have been torn through by whoever you're fighting against, although he does have a pretty good dmg in the rest of his abilities but the like hooming thing his E+W has barely does that, ik swains doesn't do that but at least Swains W is almost global, like, the range on the E+W is smaller than Q+W 💀 it should be switched ngl
I'm guessing someone will say, like a Dev, that if you want a better shield then build supp items but Hweis PRIMARY role is mid lane and uh a Katarina is definitely tearing through that micro shield in a Q+E plus if you just stand in the circle the Kata can set up her R right beside it or do a lil dive and dip💀💀💀💀 and yeah there's a fear but the hit box is nearly skinnier than Zoe's Q, which also, fears can get absolutely ignored by most assassin, that fear is NOT getting a Katarina, Ekko, Fizz or Zed off of you babe
200 years of game design moment (also Briar received 3 buffs after her initial release date)
Me (yes i got obsessed w the character): 🤓☝️
bro i love your analysis omg??
but you’re actually so right abt his shield bc, yeah, while it does stay as long as you’re on the circle THAT DOESNT MEAN SHIT IF IT BARELY PROVIDES ANY ACTUAL SHIELD?? plus i quite dislike how stationary it is for the little shield it actually gives. like its ABSOLUTELY PERFECT when i need to stay still and type “karthus, dear, would you be so kind to grant us the privilege of an ultimate? my enemy laner is quite low” BECAUSE I CANT PING IT ANYMORE
okay i just watched matty’s video and u can now ping ults so long as the cd is 50>
mb i have beef with phreak.
LMAO IM JUST IMAGINING KARTHUS ULTILNG AND HWEI CROWDING HIS ADJACENT TEAMMATES INTO THE CIRCLE LIKE SERAPHINE W FOR THE MOST MINUSCULE OF SHIELDS
hey, at least he tried
when i tested him in pbe i only ever used his w spellbook for w
that being said, you’re completely right abt assassins, as an assassin player myself🤓 (i play varus and talon, dabbling in just a hint of zed)
that tiny ass shield is NOT protecting his squishy ass from anyone and that fear is not keeping anyone with any sort of mobility from closing the distance
outside of his overall kit, i quite like his vfx and sound design. watching his moves go off is just satisfying idk

i have this Thing where i ,,,, feel like i am TooMuch as person w too many interests who lie in too many different places, with too many ways to think & talk & feel, and above this all the crown is that i HATE being perceived but i want to talk&learn so badly. 
ive found that in relationships of any kind this could be difficult to deal w... it creates this thing where pple might think i’m extremely intelligent&resourceful&passionate so they idealize me and they will listen but they won’t participate. then i start feeling like i should be a little less so i can stop being intimidating & they can start sharing too. then i never know how to be fully myself again because i’ve understood that if i was, it meant facing disconnect. like, they’ll think they can’t add anything to the convo and 1) not speak, therefore, i feel lonely 2) ignore me entirely (on apps mostly) so somebody else can deal w me instead like im a bother 3) pretend they listen/care but only answer in questions & never actually find meaning in what i say or try to dig deeper into it 4) listen, truly, and keep my ideas w them, and speak those ideas to other pple but never actually follow through much with me by adding to the convo later on or in the moment etc 
or, pple might be judgemental. so then i hide little parts, i hide interests, i speak of them a Little bit because i don’t wanna lie or be a different person, but i never really dig into what i wanna talk abt half as much as i truly want to because i know it won’t be met well. so then i start having this unconscious lists of topics that are palatable depending on who’s in front of me. and i adapt. 
or, i start compartmentalizing my own fkcing personnality. my own interests. can’t talk abt this here, thats fine, i’ll create a twitter specifically for that one thing. oh but now, i wanna talk abt That other thing, slightly linked, but different, maybe thats too chaotic to add here, maybe it doesnt fit, maybe pple will perceive too much, i should create Another twitter for This specific thing ? or maybe i should just not talk abt it. yeah. sounds good too. i have literally 4 tumblrs, 3 different twitters, just so i can safely spread out my interests becos one day i’ll feel like speaking a bit more personnally, the next i’ll feel like “no i should only speak abt the topic when i have meaningful things to say or else i sound DUMB and whiny and pple will see i have feelings that arent greatly worded analysis” im so fkcing HHHH i feel like i won’t let myself exist as a full person ANYWHERE because i keep seeing Other pple and they seem like theyre put together and they only speak One way, they only have Specific likes, they know the social clues, the social contexts, the workings of things, and they fit into it. i dont understand Shit abt anything.. worse, i do, but i don’t fit in and i don’t know how other pple do, and i can’t bring myself to commit to the rules & the fitting in because it makes me feel like a liar. 
maybe i should just Not give a fuck and create a space where i can say whatevr the fuck i want and it wld not matter at all, but i would feel too bad for that if someone perceived it. if im alone, like here, it doesnt mtter, no one reads this. but if i mention a band i like, suddenly my brainworms activate like “if pple search this band, THEY WILL KNWO WHAT U SAID, they will its YOU, theyll think you’re a fkcing PRICK or DERANGED” like okay.. what abt existing huh. you wrong footed fuck. im so tired. i wanna find a meaningful space or some type of freedom but i never feel,,, satisfied. i never feel home anywhere. i never feel home within myself, i hate that pple might see that.

okay so here is a very delayed post match analysis:
let’s be real, leeds dominated for the first 80 minutes and it did look like they would win because de gea n maguire were absolutely woeful (whose surprised there tbh). it was a very poor game from united and was reminiscent of what we played like in previous seasons icl
again those weaknesses in our midfield without casemiro and eriksen were once again exposed but tbf sabitzer did okay. fred on the other hand?? i’m still not sure what he did to get potm bc that should’ve gone to rashy or garnacho. 
rashy and garnacho they are my carrington boys fr and oh my god the pair of them are actually insane. garnacho im so glad u backed out of the sui celebration but my god stop dickriding crusty, move on babes xx. no but fr i loved how he silenced the haters and that’s what they get for hating on a literal child like grow tf up.
honestly i always feel so mean slating maguire cos i do think at times he’s overhated but no, he was so shit on sunday i genuinely think he shouldn’t play a match again this season but obvi he will cos squad rotation n we don’t want to risk it w rapha n licha n say they get injured right before a big game.
overall as far as wins go, was pretty nice n was nice to go 2nd albeit momentarily but beating leeds is genuinely the most satisfying feeling ever
overall i give this performance a solid 8.1/10
anyways it’s the return of european football and a visit to my favourite stadium after old trafford in the world, camp nou i’m excited for this game and going into this game both teams are looking very strong so it will be a good one to watch. up the reds

@arsonhotchner has been begging me to post the fast food headcanons we were talking about..  since they finally got around to making the dessert post with significantly less explanation mind you!! i guess it’s only fair to write this up asjhlgfdjk
one thing that im almost genuinely upset we didn’t get to see is more scenes of the team eating together. they’re gone for days at a time, most of which is spent working on a gruesome case, with breaks few and far between. they’ve gotta eat at some point, and its just efficient if they all eat together 
we see them order takeout sometimes so they can eat at the precinct, and they occasionally go out to restaurants (they stop doing that on cases tho when they always end up getting pulled away). but what about when a case is over and  it’s 3am and everywhere’s closed and they havent eaten in days and they just want to get a bite to eat and fucking relax? they either want a place where they can crash for a while and decompress while they unwind from whatever shitty thing happened that day or somewhere they can pick something up to bring back to the hotel. sometimes they just grab some fast food since it’s readily available and easy enough to get. but different people like different things, and they each have their favorites
emily likes mcdonalds. not necessarily for the food itself, but for the consistency. and she has fond memories of hanging out at mcdonalds in other countries she’s lived in, so there’s also a nostalgia factor. it’s kind of exciting to see the different menus. she knows it’s not the best so she’s rarely adamant about going, but it’s a chain that’s basically everywhere, so they inevitably end up going occasionally. it’s no one else’s favorite, but no one’s strongly against it either. a pretty neutral choice!
morgan likes five guys. he likes the sesame buns, he thinks the fries are good, and he loves snacking on peanuts while they wait. the group is pleased with this decision and they go as frequently as they can—even though it’s not always available.
jj likes cici’s pizza bc she’s insane. it’s mostly nostalgia—after games her soccer coach would take the team there for the buffet. the euphoria of eating a shitton of food after working to the bone assuaged any reservations they had of the taste/quality. it didnt matter how gross it was, to them it was delicious. but it does mean that jj rarely gets to pick where they go eat. she cant be trusted 
morgan likes popeyes. jj likes kfc. it’s a point of contention between the two and at some point they look to the team to settle the debate. with some sighs and grumbled apologies, everyone unanimously sides with morgan. it’s a popular option and they go often, and morgan will always have a smug look on his face when they pull up to the parking lot. 
rossi likes wendys. it catches them off guard and they don’t quite understand it, but rossi says he admires the moxy of a fast food chain that puts baked potatoes on the menu. and he likes the square patties. no one’s upset about it though—the food’s not bad and they like the cheese fries. hotch likes their frosties, so wendys becomes part of the regular rotation. 
hotch likes whataburger. dairy queen used to be his favorite when he was a kid, but at some point he decided the blizzards weren’t worth the shitty food. he doesn’t always eat when they go out, but he’ll get at least get a milkshake if the place has them, and whataburger shakes are his favorite. the group likes it, and they like to indulge hotch when he lets them. usually someone else will suggest it so he won’t feel bad for taking a turn at picking
jack likes pizza hutt. the stuffed crust is quite alluring to a six year old. every day hotch prays that his son will get some fucking taste and ask for dominos instead. one day hotch just makes the executive decision to get dominos. the cinnamon twists win jack over
reid likes chipotle. this comes as a shock to everyone. he rattles off about the quality and the health benefits etc etc but still nobody understands why. they don’t stop staring as he eats his little salad bowl.
penelope doesn’t get to eat with them as often since she doesn’t travel with them, and when she does it’s usually homecooked at someone’s house or at a restaurant. her favorite is sonic. not for the food, but for the drinks—plus she thinks there’s something classy about pulling up to a drive-in with her convertible. sometimes she’ll pick up drinks for everyone when she knows they’ve had a rough day. other times, she’ll be working late at the office and it’s getting late (or early) and hotch is the only one left. she’ll drag him out and insist on driving them home, but they’ll stop by sonic on the way to get some drinks and maybe some tater tots or something  if he’s up for it. 
alex likes panera bread. she’ll go pick up coffee and pastries in the mornings sometimes, but every once and a while they’ll go as a group to eat lunch or something. it’s inoffensive and they’re able to bring back a little snack for later, but it’s not as traditionally “fast” for fast food, so it’s mostly a morning stop. 
tara likes panda express. the others tease her a little for it, but she says there’s something comforting about shitty americanized chinese food. they’ll go every once and a while if they’re ever tired of burgers or smth.  
walker likes subway. he likes picking out the ingredients in his little sandwiches and he says there’s something about the system of the line up that’s oddly comforting. they’ll go for lunches sometimes, but they don’t go often. not necessarily because of the food, but because usually everyone’s too tired to have to make decisions/talk to someone through the whole process.
luke likes in and out bc he has taste. it becomes a quick favorite for the others and it becomes a frequent stop. 
sometimes they’ll eat at the restaurant. they’ll squeeze in a booth or drag some tables together and camp out for a while. it’s usually when it’s late and they all know they’re not getting any sleep that night. sometimes it’s quiet and they sit in silence mulling over whatever case they were working on. its enough to just.. be in the presence of others who understand what they’re going through. there’s no need to explain--they all get it. other times it’s easier to distract each other and it’ll be much more lively: joking around, goofing off, prying into personal lives, kicking under the table, etc. it’s a way to take their mind off things, and laughter over a meal with people you love can be so healing.
sometimes they’ll pick something up and bring it back to the hotel. this tends to be a little more chaotic.. one suv heads to the hotel while the other gets the food, and the accuracy of the order greatly depends on who’s in the car. hotch and reid are the most reliable at remembering what everyone wants, but they’re the least likely to speak up at a drive thru; jj tries but sometimes she’ll forget someone entirely; emily and morgan are liable to change your order if they think its gross or they just want to mess w you. either way its pretty much a gamble.
they’ll usually eat together in someone’s room. it’s a pretty big sacrifice since the smell of fast food is never getting out of there, and it’s not something any of them wanna volunteer for. more often than not it ends up being reid’s room: his protests are easier to ignore. they’ll gather on the bed or the desk or the floor--wherever there’s room. this is the setting where they tend to be more casual. they try to keep their mind off work and talk about other things, but sometimes it’s easier to brainstorm when they’re not at some police precinct. one by one they’ll trickle back to their rooms feeling more settled than they normally would be. family meals are nice like that

Read your Devilman post. Its so good to see you introduced to the wonder that is Ryo. In this house we love and adore Ryo.
This post contains major spoilers for Devilman Crybaby.
I have honestly fallen in love with the way his story was represented throughout the series. In fact, I haven’t even noticed it was his story being told right before my eyes until the last episode. I thought this was about Akira, Miki, Mico or the boys. I thought this was about survivial— or I thought this was just a show that fancies violence and wanted to draw as many gore scenes as possible without putting too much thought into the plot. How wrong I was.
(On a side note, I had known absolutely nothing about this series until I clicked on the first episode, aside from the fact that it had lgbt+ representation. I had zero spoilers. I had no idea of the genre or the ending. I just started watching it without so much thought. Maybe that’s why I’m shocked that it turned out good— because a show has to outsmart me for me to be mesmerized, and I was outsmarted at Ryo’s reveal. I will give full credits to Devilman Crybaby for this reveal.)
I’m not gonna lie, I did realize that some of Ryo’s moves were not making sense as I watched the episodes. All I heard before starting the series was that “the blonde guy liked Akira”, so I couldn’t pinpoint why exactly would Ryo put Akira into an extreme risk by letting him be consumed by the strongest devil in the world. I thought that couldn’t be “love”, and that this wasn’t what I expected at all. As the storyline progressed, I started to think that Ryo might have been a devil/devilman in disguise, because he didn’t show any feelings— or he showed a strong lack of empathy to the fucked up events. But that wouldn’t make sense either, because if Ryo had devil powers, he would have saved Akira— or himself— when they needed back-up help from others.
I thought Ryo died in that explosion, then I didn’t even time to think about it because I was progressing what happened to Miki. Oh but then everything made sense. Then we learnt that everything happened to Ryo, either as a punishment or reward, for the second time, so that the God could make him understand things. (At this point in series, maybe they/them pronouns are better for Ryo. Anyway, Ryo referred himself as “watashi”, which can be interpreted gender-neutral. My first language doesn’t even have gender-specific pronouns so I never noticed which pronoun I was using for him until I typed this. Anyway.)
I still think... It was kind of a happy ending for Ryo. From what I understand, the world is put in an endless cycle of time loop— that has occurred twice by now, if you count the number of moons that are pinpointed. Ryo watches the foundation and destruction of devils and humans over and over again. But he finally sheds tears. He finally understands something. To me, it looks like what “God” wanted him to understand.
To be honest, I’m an atheist, so I thought that the “God” they were talking about (such as Miki’s father praying to God) was just a religious belief (hence not fact-proven, so I overlooked it). I didn’t expect God to be an actually existing thing that fucked Ryo’s life up over and over again with those big bright lights. I wasn’t disappointed at the proofs of God in the anime, though, in fact I was impressed; because then Ryo’s story made sense. I just accepted Devilman Crybaby as a mythical story of Satan’s journey and listen ;; I love him so much and I want a sequel where the world starts over and Ryo is proceeding to learn life and universe with his newly-found feelings. I want him to be able to look at the sky and see the rabbit, I— I love him so much, good god.

Ok I saw the long tags about Omori characterization in one post you reblogged and tbh you’re so right like. So many times I’ve really been annoyed w how characters are written in this fandom and especially with characters like Basil it’s CRAZY to me how badly he is written at times
OKAY IM GLAD IM NOT ALONE BC FANDOM IS INSANE LIKE THAT
Honestly it’s a problem in every fandom I’ve been in, where the majority of people writing fics don’t get it when it comes to the main characters. Luckily Omori isn’t that bad compared to other fandoms, but it’s still common.
When I see people that do complain about certain fics, it’s usually people talking about YBM/Pursuit but imo that argument doesn’t hold water since a) it’s very explicitly an AU where the characters are gonna act a little different and b) people writing things like Basil being obsessive over Sunny is something that’s been around since the fandom’s inception (post-game release, I know the fandom has technically existed for like 8 years or smth). YBM/Pursuit just did it differently which is why it’s well-known, some good examples of a similar phenomenons being the AU comic “Eye for an Eye” by @/ginumo or the fic “Sharing is Caring” by ooCatoo on AO3 (not as well-known but very good).
Aside from that, I think a lot of it is people either just misinterpreting the characters due to lack of understanding or pushing them OOC for the sake of OOC angst (once again, I don’t believe YBM/Pursuit falls under this category, I think it does it beautifully). It’s not really something that can be fixed, so I don’t really lecture people on it too hard because I just don’t have the energy for that and I don’t like debating people. It’s why I’m picky with what I read/engage with; I have been known to drop fics if I don’t like things like characterization, even midway through very long stories. If the character feels too unnecessarily pushed out of their canon personality, I tend to quickly fall off, but if the shift is built up to and/or developed properly then I adore it.
In general, I tend to write for myself, which means stupidly meticulous detail (that sometimes happens on accident, admittedly) and analysis to get exactly what I want, which can hit for some readers and miss for others. I’m very much someone who likes to ask why the curtains are blue, if that makes sense.
When it comes to my friend’s writing, a lot of the people I talk to also pay attention to these kinds of details and will discuss with me why the curtains are blue, so when I read their writing I’m satisfied with things like story and characterization. I don’t always agree with them, but the way they handle and write their own thoughts/interpretations makes it work for me.
For example, I believe Sunny is a very quiet person who chooses not to talk a lot, but my friend believes him to be a rambler that will go on for a while if prompted. Usually I have issues with those kinds of interpretations, but at a core level it’s due to how it’s written; since my friend actually writes Sunny in a way that has it work for the character, I think it adds instead of subtracts from the interpretation and story, even if I personally have different headcanons and ideas.
I have read things from people I’m not friends with that have interpretations different from my own, and in the fics where it’s done well really work for me. However, I have read ones where it just doesn’t, because there isn’t the proper ease-in or build up for the changes.
Another example I can think of is the fic I mentioned previously called “Sharing is Caring.” In it, Sunny is a manipulative little shit, and obviously in canon he isn’t like that at all, therefore my interpretation of the character differs from how he is in the fic. However, due to the time we’re given to understand Sunny in this fic, the character changes aren’t that jarring and don’t take me out of the story.
This is kind of why I have issues with people interpreting Basil as extremely obsessive, or when people say the friends would never forgive Sunny and Basil, or when people interpret Mari as a perfect, (metaphorical) angel, or when people interpret Omori character as a demon or a jerk towards Sunny. A lot of people miss things like subtext or just whole character interactions, and t bothers me.
Idk, it’s just my thoughts. I tend to overanalyze a story so what I engage with leans into those detail-oriented things. It’s also why I have trouble discussing characters or even other fics with people. This isn’t to say people are interpreting things wrong, of course, I just think it’s an issue of people missing or overlooking things.
When I write, I don’t expect the majority of readers to see the subtext I intentionally and unintentionally leave in (I have been told before of small details in my writing I had never even thought of when putting them to paper). I write for myself, therefore I write very meticulous and complex stories that involve active thought about the themes and characters. I want my readers to ask why the curtains are blue, because I ask those same kind of questions. It may be because I’m an overthinker, sure, but it’s also what I tend to enjoy. I guess that’s why I love Omori so much, haha.
This was a lot longer than I intended, but I have a LOT of thoughts on the subject of writing and reading between the lines. So that’s my thoughts, and it applies to writing in general, not just fanfiction.
