that great feeling when you realize you keep coming back to the same images for the same characters 🙃🙃🙃

I'm sorry but the irony of Nico calling Max unprofessional is sending me so bad like sir there's an entire garage full of people, who were literally in the trenches trying to survive the Brocedes fallout while just doing their jobs, who might have a few things to say about your (& Lewis') level of professionalism at that time 😭✋️

I think one of the reasons the new DMC show didn't really click with me is because aside from the action and the songs (whitch i liked more because they're the type of music i enjoy rather than them fitting into the world of DMC), the show didn't really have any of the stuff i enjoy from Devil May Cry?

The games are this gothic family drama series with complicated family dynamics and feelings, questions of humanity, power and it's use and effects, but the core part of the series for me are the messy family dynamics and how they affect characters and connect them together.

I also never got attached to this Dante because it never felt like he was being genuine, because he was a complete goofball basicly the whole show, while in the games there were multiple moments in all of the games where Dante is sinciere and vulnearable and emotional and we see his actual mental and emotional state.

And while some of these issues go away when i don't look at it as a Devil may cry adaptation, i still don't really like the story because i think the "refugees" allegory was badly done.

I still maintain that Cavalero was probably a big fan of Ordan Karris when he was younger & first getting started with his career. And that he'd probably spit take if he ever found out that Ordan got glassed and is now our personal butler who hates cleaning up after pets and does math for fun

Ya'know, in order for Yang to be Beast in the Blake-Yang-Adam/Beauty-Beast-Gaston theory, she would need to be someone that other characters/society at large fear and

"yOu WeRe NeVeR iNtImIdAtEd By Me" Oh my god that's why that line exists :0

people love posting that one scoroponok panel without context saying mpreg is canon but no one points out how insane it is in context. i need you to understand that baby is not a common experience/general form of reproduction, its specifically engineered by scorponok bc hes a fucking freak and its not even a transformer, that thing is an organic specifically designed to hold sparks to harvest for future transformers.

he put the gestation tank inside of his chest. this is not normal he made that shit upp. and then he dies.

Quick rule of thumb: if you're making a TF2 crossover it is integral that you realize that you can't make the TF2 Mercs serious in other settings, the Mercs aren't even serious in TF2 this is a important character trait.

Rewatching Shez's supports with Edelgard, it kind of irritates me that Edelgard looks upset after Shez points out that the average farmer probably hates her for the war. Like, ma'am you knew this would lead to mass death and a lot of people not being fans of yours, and considering Hubert also points out the Edel's policies are meant to benefit nobles who give her money and troops and keep down the commonfolk, she shouldn't be surprised by this answer. Shez even softens the comment by saying "you must have a good reason" but it's like Edelgard can't handle hearing any kind of real criticism from people she respects (or claims to). I think it's another player-pandering thing, can't have the Lord be mad at you, but it just makes Edelgard look like a thin-skinned whiner who can't handle the harsh criticisms that her actions are going to bring her. At least when she went on about "her path of blood and death" in 3 Houses she seemed to have some sense of "yeah people will hate my guts." Idk it probably comes down to the developers being scared to have someone truly criticize Edelgard without pushback.

That supports irks me for other reasons lol, basically the fact that Barney points out how water is wet (something Supreme Sailor Fuku apparently missed, as you noticed) but within 1 convo they completely drop that plot line and get along with her plans because, eggtivation means that someone as bland as Barney - who could represent common sense - must also be drowned under liters of Hresvelg Grey.

Imo, it's not "your lord cannot be mad at you", but again and again with the Fodlan games, "no one can be mad at Supreme Leader, not even you(r self insert character)".

FWIW, FEH got her writing right - faced with contradictions and criticism, Supreme Leader ragingly storms out of a conversation when the characters aren't from Fodlan and thus cannot be eggtivated (or when the Fodlan team isn't writing them?).

Given how her Nopes' Big B's support basically has her say "you're either with me or against me", no wonder why criticism, at least in Nopes, is something unknown for her, hell, Ferdie must behead his father to demonstrate times after times that he and House Aegir aren't her enemies - in a way, even with the twist they added (let's ally with those icky disgusting beasts to get rid of uncle, and THEN we will free Fodlan from their scaly grasp!) Nopes wrote Supreme Leader to be even more uncompromising and more bull-headed than ever, if in Houses she had a modicum of self-awareness (she's still the Adrestian Emperor though!), in Nopes it's written away.

Any chance I could ask for another Kay from aliens imagine

Perhaps

I'm sorry, but what even??? Like wtf is the point in this I genuinely don't understand. There are literally 9 races left and it's not even like ur replacing him with someone who's experienced. Ur literally putting a rookie whose 6th in the f2 standings (NOT hating on Franco, just tryna prove a point) that has not even been in the car during free practices??? Like wtf r they trying to do here. Idk man this all just seems dumb, lile this whole thing is just a big risk.

Also sidenote: why would u bring team torque back just to hit us with this😭😭

Writing time. Again. For real this time though instead of just me saying I'm going to write and then not doing that and sleeping until 5 minutes before my work shift and then working for an hour before getting a text from my wife that says "can you call 811 for me" and coming upstairs to find out she had a stroke.

Yeah. Writing for real. If anyone wants to hang out/feed the ADHD brain some dopamine by helping me "multitask"/cheerlead, hit me up!

My usual tag for this applies, blacklist if you don't feel like scrolling past my stream of consciousness thoughts for however long I manage to focus on this

the most tragic thing about lewis to ferrari is the death of britcedes and charlos. neither are very compelling as concepts but you have to admit the names are a good time

[roscoehamiltons]

seeing that 1) george's car was not drained of fuel properly during the initial weight check 2) mercedes were seemingly aware that the car was underweight either before or during the race 3) they switched strategies last second with george and lewis 4) there was not clear communication to lewis about the strategy switch 5) it is extremely rare for mercedes to split the strategies between drivers in the first place, can you blame people for asking questions about mercedes' treatment of lewis?

Min a day and the longest time that they managed to keep was a week
