Cassie Sandsmark they could never make me hate you. Even if they’re trying. Really hard

Also idk if Greta and Cassie were technically roommates at Saint Elias’s but who else would it be. They’re buddies. Bonds forged in Yj are unbreakable unfortunately

i rather enjoy being the dumb silly puppy until such point that someone in a discord server needs some investing 201 level financial advice. then the business degree that has branded my soul takes over and i rattle off some john bogle shit about exchange traded funds and lazy investing portfolios in a daze.

like, i am investing fuckin couch change and spare dollars into some robinhood account just because i want to do something with this degree i've otherwise not earned a dime off of cuz it beats going to a casino, but it's really funny to just go Professor Dog and have them be impressed and then go back to barking and such.

"If you love Barbie, this movie is for you. If you hate Barbie. This movie is for you."

I think this line is not just about making sure the movie is for everyone, but it is an acknowledgement of all those girls who saw all the prejudice and hate around girlhood and anything girly and decided to find strenght in forcing themselves to hate that stuff too. All those girls that never wore pink and played football and hated dolls and twilight and boy bands and the idea of motherhood (not saying that girls couldn't just be like this, but I'm talking about the ones who felt a pressure to exhibit certain behaviours to avoid being picked on, or to fit in with others as most girly things have always been ridiculed and mocked) And I think this movie might just be calling them back, to say that it's okay, to find some reconciliation with the childhoods that were forced on them and the childhoods that they were forced out of.

Girls didn't choose to have Barbies forced on them and girls didn't choose to be belittle for liking the only things that they were allowed to have. And I think this movie is trying to be for them.

I said this in a whole reblog, but just copy-pasting to a separate post because I think it'll give some reading comprehension and reblogs don't show up in the search feature.. again, I'm reiterating what I said in another post.

Go check out @demidokuriya 's post for this; OP's post made me put this all down in like. 20 minutes. Mind went vroom vroom cuz HEY THEY'RE ONTO SOMETHING.

(They also reblogged the post with some hint to some behind the scenes of what led to the ideas if you wanna check that out)

Look below at how, when Mineta told AFO to spare Tokoyami, AFO specifically went "..."

He remembers Jirou and thinks, The braying howls of the weak...

He was going to take Tokoyami's Quirk. He took Hawks'. But after Mineta pleaded with him, AFO just straight-up left and didn't take anyone else's Quirk.

AFO saw Yoichi in Mineta.

These scenes are near-identical to each other.

Mineta and Yoichi (at that time) are both much smaller than the normal person at their age

They're both hurt, yet dragged themselves up from the ground to throw something at AFO, to get his attention and make their voice

Both are considered weak, even if they have a Quirk (Mineta's Pop-Off and Yoichi's undeveloped Factor)

The fact that Yoichi got AFO's attention here by throwing a can at him, while Mineta got his attention by throwing a Pop-Off ball; and it stuck.

Mineta's call for his attention landed and actually stuck to AFO. This is unlike when Yoichi and his can bounced off, and AFO kicked him, not listening to him; AFO listened to Mineta and left Tokoyami alone, technically doing what Mineta wanted—to not hurt this person.

AFO just went on to hurt more people away from Mineta's [Yoichi's] eyes so the small weakling wouldn't see.

Yoichi and Mineta both cried to AFO to not hurt in his ways, when AFO was intent on stealing people's Quirks

AFO even stole Hawks' Quirk during this time.

He had time to steal Hawks' Quirk, and though he could've tossed him to the side, he let Hawks stand in his way.

He had the energy. Right after this event, he flew off and left the scene. But he didn't go for Tokoyami immediately.

And this let Mineta play his part, and remind AFO of Yoichi.

"A putrid, festering Quirk Factor."

That sounds like Yoichi, AFO.

".. such garbage."

Hey hey hey, what did Yoichi throw at him when they were kids?

A discarded can. Garbage.

This chapter (385) where AFO listens to Mineta is literally called [A Youthful Urge].

Mineta told AFO to take his Pop-Off (hurt him) instead. But last time, AFO hurt Yoichi by kicking him; this time, AFO not only listened to Mineta to not hurt Tokoyami, but didn't touch Mineta at all.

Even though this time, Mineta [Yoichi] offered to take that place of suffering.

Yoichi didn't do that back then. AFO just turned on little Yoichi anyway.

Yoichi through his whole existence is literally [the braying howls of the weak]. AFO acknowledges he's weak and idealistic, yet he still loves him.

Side note about this panel, I think it's interesting that in this vision, this was the first time we saw Yoichi's eyes: when he was being defiant, despite being pushed down by someone much stronger than him.

Really characteristic of him, honestly. Yoichi's soft-spoken and frail, but it's always reiterated that Yoichi had a powerful will against his stronger big brother.

Mineta at this moment reminded him too much of Yoichi, because the two scenes are near-identical to each other. Parallels, really.

Reiterating something from OP's post that I reblogged this from;

"The reminder of his brother made him uncomfortable, so he hurried away."

AFO didn't want to hurt Yoichi again.

Wait I just realized something. Alice is part of the God Possessed Pentious AU. However, she’s also a part of your Zestious fic “A Hundred Years and Many More”. Does… does that imply that, at least in your fic, Zestial had a crush on Pentious. Then Pentious died and got possessed by God. If so, I cannot WAIT for that reaction!

“The guy I had a crush on is, not only alive, but is also GOD’S VESSEL!!????!!!” [insert Catholic Guilt here]

Hi, thanks for the ask! "A Hundred Years and Many More" was more of a test run for the backstory, and the backstory (with Alice's glorious presence uwu) is actually part of the au

BUT

I think it'd be hilarious if Zestial and Pentious had this lingering crush on each other the entire time XD Maybe Zestial's was born out of intrigue more than romance, but they both had CRUSHES

And now god's over here like "what's with you and crushing on people who could destroy you??? what the fuck, man???" because he knows. Pentious can't really hide his massive crushes because he can't hide shit XD

Do you think iterators can lie and/or swear? Or do taboos prevent them.

If taboos do prevent them, I feel like nsh would have rewrote his genome solely to allow him to, just so he can embarrass moon and pebs in front of other iterators.

i think they can actually, yes! lying and swearing is part of the "human" experience and they are meant to be as close as possible to a person so they can get a good ✨feel✨ 👁👄👁 for that for the sake of their mission with the Great Problem (imo)

if you can't experience, recognize in yourself and then categorize certain things, how can you work with them, yanno? Especially Lying would be permitted. swearing is a lil more on thin ice tho n so,,,

Look, I know Lisa’s behavior re: letting Dean, someone she hasn’t seen in nearly a decade, skulk around her child’s birthday party is best explained by him being The baby-daddy.

But here’s the rub: (1) the angels didn’t even sniff towards Ben and (2) Lisa is (relatively) honest. During the year Dean was actively with her, she would have likely told him. (Cause it’s no small thing.) Especially under The Truth curse where she ranted about the loss of loved ones/hunting. (My take: It’s a cheeky…red herring. Ben was hungry for a father-figure, and Dean’s relationship to him parallels Bobby Singer.)

So while it is a truth that would be kinder to Lisa’s behavioral health/motivations/etc, the latter plot points don’t support it. Yeah, I agree that it actually makes better sense as an initial explanation for her behavior in her intro ep. But these latter points transform her behavior’s root cause, leaning towards her as a (possibly chronic?) caretaker type of person.

We do see that she is caring! She’s got a caretaker persona from her first ep, driving her to help her neighbor. She’s a good friend! Because of the later plot points, we can assume this caretaker/gratitude aspect of her character is more the driver of her actions than hiding a paternity.

..why do people think Minthe or ANY of the nymphs are poc coded??? Like..I wanna know.

Is it cuz they're disrespected ?? Cuz the gods are assholes and talk down to beings weaker than them. Like what IS poc coded about them besides that.

When nymphs are literally weaker than most gods/ they can die..hence why God's are so damn disrespectful cuz OFC they would be. That's the way it is. Is it right?? No, but logically what are they gonna do?? They'd die, which is fucked up obvi.

I just..I'm sooo confused. NO one in this comic is poc coded cuz Rachel sucks at that shit, sure Pysches there..but i feel like her design was just shoved in for brownie points cuz..she's unnecessary now. Also..why would only the nymphs be poc coded. Why would the species that's LITERALLY below the gods (in their terms, cuz again. They're gods) be Poc coded. Why would you want that 😶

(Ofc have your headcanons, I draw my Zeus as black just cuz it's fun, so I'm not saying don't do that. I just find it interesting when people think she's poc coded in the actual comic? )

Before I went to bed I saw the Youtube notif that TADC was going to Netflix and it INVADED my dreams so vividly I have not had such an episodic sequential serialized cohesive dream in months it was literally its own chapter its own short story

What never ceases to amaze me is how amazingly skilled George RR Martin is at creating a world so similar yet so glaringly different from our own. This is especially blinding in HOTD where the similarities between the Faith and Christianity, The Old Gods of Valyria and the North and pagan religions of old (and there slow and steady comeback in recent decades). The parallels that can be drawn between the Targaryen feeling of disconnect from their roots, lack of knowledge in their own history, and the history of so many people from across Africa, Europe, and the Americas is truly astounding.

What also never ceases to amaze me is how many religious people I know side with the Greens, like I wonder if they realize…
