one of the most insane things about carlos is like. based on how you are introduced to him in ztd you think he's gonna be the most normal character in the game especially when teamed with AKANE and JUNPEI of all people. and he is the hero type main character archetype guy. but then you play suspicion where he literally kills himself with an axe because he's worried about being dangerous to others (? Is he okay actually. What the fuck). and then there's also get back/apocalypse where he waits 10 fucking months for akane and junpei to save them instead of stopping zero at all. What is wrong with him

My dream nightvale episode is one centering around carlos' little gaggle of scientist and what theyre up to and the episode is formated like a peered reviewed journal being read out on air. This episode would appeal to no one but me and thats what makes it good

[carnation-notebooks]

thinking about Kevin wtnv. Like YES he is fucked up and strange and is probably dangerous and may even kill me given the opportunity.

But have you concidered hes my special little guy???? Funky man????? Maybe even blorbo??? HUH?? . This post is directed at Joseph Fink and Jeffery Cranor please give more kevin content.

Everyone shut up Saving Grace is objectively the best episode of lone star

[the-night-puncher]

I don't think I ever hated a villain in welcome to nightvale as much as I hate dr lubelle, I want to throw this woman in the library and lock the door but I'm afraid of what she would do to the poor librarians

I didn't have time to create something but!! For HSMTMTS Appreciation Week Day One: Favorite Character, I wanted to make a post about how much I love Seb and Carlos :D. And a bit of everyone else too!

First of all, the older I get the more I relate to Carlos lol. The more I'm being the leader, the decision maker, and trying to be the bridge between students and adults.

And, because of the same thing, the same goes for Seb! I'm the "innocent" one, the one who's always nice, and sometimes I'm just so frustrated when everyone's being negative but I'm trying to make the best of a situation. I feel like Seb is definitely like, the one who's looking on the bright side for everyone else (even when he's frustrated too).

And it's crazy because that's so similar between them. Trying to be something for everyone and getting shut down for it. They're so different, but they somehow have so much in common :'D.

Oh, and the fact that they're just one of the couples? Listen, I love queer stories that address the tougher issues we deal with, but sometimes I just want to watch teens be teens. The most we get in that direction is their fears, like "I'm the fool who thought eh would dance in public with me" and Seb saying Carlos doesn't have a lot of options. We get to see them go through their own challenges, just like the other couples, and I love that so much <33 :'D.

Also they're adorable together and they love each other so much thank you for coming to my ted talk :')

Anyway lol, about the Wildcats as a whole, there's a reason I was having so many feelings as I finished rewatching season 1. They're all so at odds and crunching against each other in the beginning, but there's just this shift. It's not one specific moment, but it's the small different ones of seeing everyone relax and let themselves have this family. Let this family have them. There's not a specific time I can point to, they just weren't family one moment, and they were the next :'). And even through all the drama, that's still true. I really think we're gonna see it more in Season 4, despite everything with the movie. They'll come together eventually, no matter what :).

And they're all so unique! They all have their own skills and personalities, and they're amazing on their own, but again, they're at their best when put it together.

I seriously love all these characters so much. I love Carlos and Seb with my whole heart. But I love all the Wildcats :').

And one more thing y'all. We're all here, maybe for the last time together. Let's make the most of it 🥰

My thoughts on the 9–1-1 Lone Star discourse

[mudstoneabyss]

sometimes I'm worried I come off as disliking Carlos...

[robbiethompsonlongcon]

so does anybody else see carlos a bit as like deans... ideal self? or self insert? lil bit like deans mary sue (honorific)? like how dean would like to be, or how he wants to perceive himself? or at least the version of dean we perceive together as a fandom's ideal self? not literally, i don't think dean is creating the characters or making the story up diagetically as the New Chuck or anything, but in that way the OG show sometimes does metatextual parallels between two characters who otherwise have no control over the narrative.

carlos is.. beloved by all. disaster bisexual. gender!! so much gender!! genderweird, genderfastandloose, genderplayful. unbound by gender roles entirely. a wonderful tapestry of masculine, feminine, both and neither. truly knows who he is, and is comfortable with that identity. celebratory of it, even! hes got it, hes gonna flaunt it. tastefully slutty. constant quips. sassy as fuck. so charismatic it hurts. talented performer. incredible hunter. frequently pokes at his beloved, sibling-type lorenerd hunting partner about her books. selfless and loving as thee central personality trait, buried under a layer of protective bravado. but also very aware he is very pretty and very talented. competent!!! but knows his strengths, and plays to them. nurturing. free and wild and a little reckless, a little superficial but never in truly harmful ways. if carlos goes or stays, it's because he wants to, he decided for himself, not because anyone told him to. willing to express boundaries. getting therapy. not afraid of feelings. do no harm take no shit. and just. so, so, SO very cool. in every way. even the "nerdy" things about him are cool. he's flawed, imperfect, but that's kinda what makes him ideal. he's just so.. real.

plus, john actively loves him, and loves him for who he is. john leans on him for support, sometimes even takes his advice. and he never tells carlos who to be or how to act. john and carlos are friends, they're FAMILY. john never tries to make carlos more like himself, at least he hasn't so far. carlos can be as silly, as emotional, as nonconforming, as distractable as he wants and john, at worst, breezes past it. lets him be himself. oftentimes john just supports him. john RESPECTS him. sees him as a worthwhile and complete individual, a valuable member of the team. they're like brothers. and why wouldn't dean want to be like brothers with his dad? it's not weird for him, he's already something of a dad to his brother. the boundaries between brothers and fathers and sons are already blurred for dean, and have been since he was four years old. and his relationship with bobby is more fluid than fatherfigure and son, too. bobby is father figure, uncle, coworker, mentor/teacher, childhood friend, war buddy and co-conspirator. in fact, none of deans relationship roles are so clear cut. and for all his complicated feelings about john, and all his traumas.. at his core he really does want johns respect and affection. marys, too, to be fair. carlos has both.

and then there's the story line in 1x08. carlos was given a Mark that forces him to kill, took the Mark in order to stop a dangerous and malicious entity from wanton murder before knowing the full terms and ramifications. the whole team researched the Mark and tried to find ways to get rid of the curse. but when push came to shove, they failed. the entity behind the curse was a lot more powerful than they thought. so carlos's options were either: to do what the Mark and the entity wanted and choose a victim's life to take, satisfying the conditions of the Mark and hope the entity didnt move the goalposts. or to say, nah. the life i choose to take is my own. and for once, that was the right answer!! carlos saved the day and defeated the enemy not by fighting, not by the deaths loved ones or innocents, not by cutting losses or solving for x, but by refusing to play, by sacrificing himself. and just being willing to was enough, he didn't have to actually die. carlos won. by giving up. nobody died because of carlos' decision to take on the burden from jericho, nor his decision to turn it inward. when carlos called the shots, everybody lived.

every time dean tries that, it backfires spectacularly, and usually winds up getting just as many people hurt or killed as the callous and selfish option would have. dean wants to be good and selfless so badly that he often rushes straight to self sacrifice. hes like plan a) ask nicely whoops i forgot to be nice. well that failed OK PLAN B) martyrdom. it's like, every time dean is faced with the trolley problem, his first answer is to throw himself in front of the trolley. as though he thinks the trolley is going to be satisfied and just disappear. or at least this way he won't have to see what happens next.

in carlos' situation, that was the LAST resort, not one of the first. they really were in a kill-or-be-killed, 11th hour hailmary situation. they tried everything else. the trolley was upon them. and carlos chose to die, not out of a wanton desire to prove his worth/worthlessness or martyr himself, but because they DID try every other thing they could first. it was a last resort! carlos DID NOT WANT to die, he wanted to save everybody, including himself! he had thoroughly considered the possibility that he would have to die, but he put that on the furthest backburner. he didn't want to die, but when it came down to it, he said, i won't be manipulated and i wont play god. back me into a corner, twist my arm, i won't do it. fuck you, i won't be your plaything. deans whole thing is that he doesn't wanna be anybodys plaything! not chuck's, not azazel's, not even john's. and he always is. and giving up never works for him. he never gets to choose. hes trapped in the game against his will. he doesn't even want to win the game, he just wants to quit playing. but the rules are that if he doesn't play, that's still playing, and he loses. if he does play, he loses. its rigged. there's no winning and no forfeit for dean. but for carlos, there was both this time. quitting was winning. everybody lives. the ideal outcome, if your name is dean winchester.

carlos is everything dean wishes he could be, or wishes he could believe he was. brave, strong, confident, smart, funny, drop dead gorgeous, selfless, complicated, sensitive, intuitive, comfortable, endearing. and he wins the way dean always wished he could.

Capcom I’m outside your doors, please bring back Manuela. My second daughter Manuela, I love her dearly! She’s really interesting and I also adore the dynamic that she has with Leon and Krauser. They’re all family your honor.

Headcanon: Her tail is mostly down throughout the operation and spikes a lot. But when around either Leon or Krauser, she’s more relaxed and her tail isn’t as low.

There better be some more context to Carlos calling TK a “hot mess” later on cause, bro... did you walk past a mirror on your way to telling him that?
