Unpopular Opinion

The people who become master benders without having to put in the hard work and without having to struggle aren't Azula or Toph or even Aang, they're Katara(becomes a master good enough to teach the Avatar within a month of finally getting formal instruction) and Zuko (get's a convenient dragon-shaped powerup rather than having to actually master the fundamentals).

In my head the first thing that actually comforted Vox at all while he was in hell was the radio playing some familiar song .

[villainihavedonethymotheronao3]

vox machina: half of a coed secret society currently facing university crackdown due to excessive rowdiness and flagpole scaling get a sizable townhouse; there they handle lizard escapes, child support requests, police scrutiny, many villainous professors, and members who won't stop getting engaged to each other.

the mighty nein: paranoid houseboat owners renting the absolutely cheapest moorings at a marina in a midsized european canal city band together against judgemental neighbors/local boat safety inspections/the concept of decay/ecosystem degradation in their waterways/their own dark pasts/two art-student ass cults; against all odds succeed at everything.

bell’s hells: posters on a queer housing page in toronto pack 6-11 people (depending on the day) into a two bedroom; ping-pong between icily polite spy warfare and cloying codependence, all while ostensibly working together to save a critically endangered species of salamander—end up involved in years old industrial drama opposing their friend’s shady mining corporation mom.

what would happen if you abandoned puppyboy! floyd? like just said “oh come follow me outside and stay here :D” and then dissapeared

Omg T^T poor puppyboy Floyd... he believes you as well because he knows you wouldn't do anything to hurt him, so he trusts you wholeheartedly when he gets into the car with you. Nothing feels amiss until the both of you reach a considerable distance from the house and you park the car in some empty street deep in the city. You walk a little ways further until you stop and tell Floyd to wait there. But Floyd tries to follow after you when you walk away and you turn around and tell him to wait; you say you'll be back soon, but for the first time Floyd hesitates in believing your words. He tries to follow you again and you snap at him to stay, so he listens, albeit while scuffing his shoe on the ground and pouting.

He waits until he can't wait anymore, until he's taking the way back to where he's certain the car is still parked. If this is because he ate your dessert, he said he'd make you a new one! If this is because he's been too clingy lately, he'll ease up. He'll do whatever you want; he loves you! But the car is not there, and you're gone. Floyd realizes that you've left him all alone in the big, scary city and he has no sense of direction because he's never been in the city by himself. You've always accompanied him. For once in his life, he feels lost. He doesn't cry because he's certain there must be some mistake. Shrimpy would never abandon him. Surely not! But as the day gives way to night and Floyd's spent hours walking in what feels like circles, always returning to the place where the car once sat in hopes of seeing it again, it becomes clear that you aren't coming back.

At some point, perhaps he runs into catboy Jade and the two of them survive together for a while before they're taken in by a certain overworked, always-exhausted businessman (Azul). Floyd's goal is to be reunited with his Shrimpy. Jade's is to explore and, now that Floyd keeps talking about this Shrimpy he adores so much, eventually settle down in a comfortable home (preferably your home because it sounds so quaint).

This doesn't mean Floyd forgives you, though! He feels so hurt and betrayed and angry, so when he sees you next you'd better be ready to make it up to him with many apologies because he isn't going to let you get away so easily.

Thinking about Rana introducing Groda to other people bc she has to be forced to socialize eventually. And like, Groda meeting Sunny eventually and immediately clocking that he's missing an arm and trying to subtly tug on Rana's shirt almost instantly while being very clearly panicked but still trying to hide it. And Rana eventually pulls her aside like "What?? what is it?" "You didn't tell me he was missing an arm!!" "...Why would that matter?" <- understandably getting the wrong impression from this "Because I've seen it before." "Oh."

And that was the day that Rana learned Sunny's arm was ripped off by Groda's Warden at the worst possible timing.

I recently got out of a toxic and unhealthy friendship on here. I had to be the one to end it; hopefully the other party decides to leave it be and not smear my name due to realizing it wasn't healthy and that I had to end it because of it.

Basically, if someone makes you start feeling like shit, from your life, to your goals, passion, and everything else, then it's not a rewarding friendship. And it's hard to sometimes see it in the moment. Because you want to think the best of peeps, especially ones you care about.

But sometimes the healthiest thing for You is to know when to put your foot down and end it, even if it hurts you and them. At the end of the day, you matter and what you're doing matters and no one has the right to make you feel shit for who you are when you're just living your life. Life is hard enough without adding peeps who make you feel that way or question how you live when, prior to them showing up, you were happy with all of it.

To anyone in a relationship or friendship like that, I hope, like me, you are able to take a stand and realize you deserve better.

I knew I was being manipulated but not how much until I talked to others close to me. I pray you all never have to experience such a thing because damn, you know you did the right thing, but feel so fucking guilty at the same time.

But your happiness matters. You matter. Please remember that.

even for period typical ableism it still drives me nuts for karen to go oh poor matt how can he deal and get around as if he hasn't been blind most of his life at this point and living on his own by himself as an adult for his entire adult life after college and has also lived in the city his whole life like girl use your damn brain he can get around by himself just fine. good god. like take five seconds to use your brain. literally adult man who lives by himself if nothing else that should tell you he is fine and when he needs assistance has the knowledge and ability to go get it you act as if he can't even walk on the sidewalk by himself. he literally shows up to work by himself. it drives me up the wall sometimes how she sees proof of him functioning fine independently literally witnesses it on the daily and still thinks these things. like again foggy isn't great either bc again the period typical ableism (and just general ableism in the world outside of this period as this is a common attitude of viewing disabled people as helpless and unable to function even if they are people who do live independently (and im not touching on people who do need extra support and caretaking in this context. as this post is about these characters in the context of a story. so im talking about what we see there instead of any truly meaningful nuanced way) but the writing here is like. Particularly this way due to the time) he has a modicum more of understanding that matt is literally a capable grown adult man. literally told karen matt is a big boy who can handle himself and then karen went b-b-but you forget he's blind as if foggy hasn't known him for years of his life and is his best friend like PLEASE SEE HIM AS AN ADULT. I AM GOING TO GO INSANE. PLEASE RESPECT HIM IF YOU LOVE HIM SO DEARLY. AND EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T. JUST RESPECT HIM AS A PERSON!!!!!!

So I noticed a parallel between one of Pearl's lines and one of Iris's:

Pearl: I... I really am useless! I didn't even manage to burn the letter properly as my mother had asked of me... Such a simple thing... And I couldn't even do it right...

Iris: But I couldn't get you to give it back... I failed at something even as simple as that. Six months passed and I still couldn't get it back from you.

And it just got me thinking, again, about how crucial they are to each other's development and healing after the events of BttT. Like, yes, Pearl is surrounded by people who love and care for her, but none of them really understand what it's like to have loved, and to keep loving, someone who has wronged others close to you. None of them understand what it's like to feel guilty to have failed that person, even when you know you shouldn't have helped them, nor what it's like to carry these conflicted feelings of love and guilt with you in silence for the rest of time because you can't talk about it. That person was evil. They're a monster. You love them, but you shouldn't. No one understands... except Iris.

Iris, who would have given her life for Phoenix but still feels guilty over failing Dahlia. Iris, who's lived most of her life knowing the sins of Dahlia's past but still says she loves her the moment she's allowed to speak of her. Iris, whose first instinct after her failure was to hide herself away from everyone who loved her, just like Pearl's was. Iris, who can look at Pearl and see so much of herself reflected back that she understands implicitly what it's like. How much pain Pearl is truly carrying with her. How much unspoken grief.

And Iris, who can look at Pearl and see how senseless it really is, yet how inevitable, and hold her through her sorrow while also gradually letting go of her own misplaced guilt because she sees now, truly, how that helps no one and hurts everyone. I'm thinking about Iris and Pearl, who were sisters before they even knew each other and are so alike in so many tiny, significant ways that it's nothing short of a miracle, and I'm thinking about how they're the last pieces of a broken family, but they make the strongest link. I'm thinking about Iris and Pearl.

You know what I would like to see in Abbott Elementary season 3? A Jacob focused episode where we get to learn more about his family. if you think about it we got the chance to meet relatives of all the other main characters: Janine's mother and sister, Gregory's father, Barbara's husband and daughter, Melissa's sister and Ava's grandmother. But we have never met anyone from/heard anything about Jacob's family. We only got an hint that his family situation is somewhat dysfunctional from a single line during 2x10. So i am really curious to learn more about his background and i think it could be a way to develop his character more.
