#episode 878

[rainboneish]

the biggest reason why i reject the theory that Shanks will end up betraying Luffy/be the big bad/working with the big bad at the end of the story is that i don’t think this fits the kind of story being told here for over 20 years… yes, one piece has dark themes at times and friendly looking characters have turned out to be enemies and traitors before, but Shanks’ interactions with luffy are one of the cornerstones of his whole value system (and by extension of the story as a whole) and a betrayal here would put everything into question… it would be very weird for a story built around found family and loyalty and freedom the way one piece is to end lead into betrayal of principles like that

(also, you know, the sheer proud dad vibes he oozes whenever he shows up once in a blue moon but i wanted to talk about the narrative reason here)

My part of the DCMK Fanworks Server Halfiversary Exchange 2023! For @blenderfullasarcasm!

I decided to follow the Yu-Gi-Oh! and DCMK crossover prompt, which specifically highlighted "Season 0," the colloquial name for the first anime adaptation of the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga. So, I paired Detective Conan (and the eensy-littlest bit of Magic Kaito) footage with that anime's theme song, "A Yell of Thirst" by Field of View.

For as long as I've known about it, I've had my own soft spot for the Season 0 series. The portrayal of Yami Yugi as this frightening, malicious personality who emerges only in times of danger gripped me—and still does. Revisiting the series for this project, I could still so strongly recall scenes of Yugi and his friends grappling with his mysterious "other self."

And I also realized that maybe Detective Conan and Yu-Gi-Oh! are more similar than I previously thought. After all, couldn't "Sleeping Kogoro" also be described as a frightening, malicious personality who emerges only in times of danger?

(Or, more in line with the actual video I edited, Conan is "another Shinichi" who both terrifies and helps him, a dynamic perhaps not so unlike that of Yugi and Yami Yugi in Season 0.)

I hope you enjoy what I came up with! My goal was to utilize clips featuring every character and relationship noted in the prompts, and though an AMV can't exactly be a casefic or delve into worldbuilding per se, I also tried to capture the spirit of those prompts, too, including more actual detective-ing and backgrounds than I ever have in my Conan AMVs before. Huge shout out goes to @dcmk-scenery, an absolutely fantastic resource who were a tremendous help, as well as the Detective Conan World wiki, which definitely led me to clips from episodes I haven't even seen yet! The English translation of the lyrics are also courtesy of the Yu-Gi-Oh! wiki.

As a final note, though I know the requirement for the exchange was a 15-second AMV, I really wanted to make my gift special; Blender is so kind and does so much for the DCMK community, including setting up this event in the first place! I'm so glad I was able to to be a part of this, and I hope my final result brings joy.

more than enough kitty.. (shinso)

hitoshi shinso x gn!reader 

fluff, comfort, shinso being the greatest boyfriend ever, sleeping together (very end)

wordcount ~ 878

summary ~ its one of those days when you just don’t feel like a good enough hero and you’re doubting your ability. but don’t worry, shinso knows how to make his kitty feel all better.

a/n ~ wrote this instead of working, anigomi shinso asmr inspired me to write for the cutie.

shinso had just come home after a dinner with aizawa, he hollered down the hallway that he would be taking a quick shower before he’d join you on the couch to watch another episode of your drama. he was finished in about 10 minutes, walking out in matching cat pj’s you brought for the both of you on valentines day and a towel over his lavender hair. he rubbed his eyes and walked into the living room, calling out for you. “y/n? where are you kitty? i’m done with my shower so are you ready to watch?”.

no response. 

the silence and your lack of presence signalled to him that there was something wrong. something he needed to take care of as your boyfriend. shinso knew that when you were upset you would run into the bedroom and hide in your blanket fort, cuddled up against your white cat, flakey. your muffled sniffles confirmed his worries, and it guided him into the bedroom. 

the sound of a blocked nose and rubbing of tears from your cheeks seeped through the covers of the blanket. he lifted the covers up and snuck himself into your fort. “there’s my precious kitty..” he cooed into your ear, pressing his forehead onto yours and cupping your wet cheeks in his cold hands. you were trying to hold back your cries, but when shinso wrapped his arms around your waist it all came pouring out like a river. a river of emotions. the feeling of not being good enough. never being good enough. 

“hey, hey it’s okay sweetheart, just let it out. i’m all ears for you, promise.” he spoke gently, trying not to shake you up anymore than you already were. he tightened his hold on you, and that brought you great comfort. you felt safe. 

“i- i just don’t... don’t feel good enough shinso- not a good hero..” your words were scattared, your tears and heavy breathing created pauses for your emotions. it hit hard. it wasn’t easy to admit that you also had the thought in your mind, overthinking the idea for the past few days. you had worked so hard to become the best hero you could possibly imagine, being in the top 20 was a miracle in itself. needless to say it didn’t come without hard and disciplined work, training and motivation.

shinso had watched you fight for your dream, chasing the stars and the planets to become the hero you’ve always dreamed of. the air was dampened, shinso’s sadness came from the fact you couldn’t see yourself the way he did. his love was at first admiration. great admiration for the hero who was the top student of UA and now climbing the ranks of the hero world tirelessly. he pulled down the fort, unwrapping himself from you and pushing you back so that you were staring face to face. shinso’s purpose was to make you loved. to make you safe. and seeing you belittle your own efforts broke him. “y/n you’re all wrong, so very wrong.” his eyes were firm, the same way his words were, the same way his grip on your shoulders were.

“you’ve worked harder than anyone else i’ve ever known, and i’ve watched since day one. i won’t let you look down on yourself and disregard all your efforts. you are the best y/n. there is no better, you are the most amazing, selfless and beautiful hero ever to have stepped foot into my life. hell, you’re the most amazing partner i could’ve ever dreamed of.” his words were magical.

words that untangled the knots of thoughts in your pretty little head. words that lifted your hearts into the horizon of happiness and love. and those words came from shinso, who’s always been by your side. who will always be by your side no matter what. flakey purred, curling into your lap and snuggling into shinso’s sweatpants that you had stolen. “shinso...thank you handsome, you always know what to say when i’m down. how do you do it.” you let out a soft giggle as you wipe away any remains water marks on your cheeks. your cute yet stupid giggle was all shinso wanted to hear. he wanted to hear you happy, just like his pretty kitty cat deserved. 

“i’ll always be here sweetheart, not getting rid of me that easily.” he smirked, pushing his lips on your head and laying you down on the bed. “lets get some rest y/n, it’s been a long day and you deserve some good rest.” you nod whilst snuggling into the warm covers and relaxing your head on your fluffy pillow. shinso slides in next to you, putting his arm out so that you could lay as close as possible to him. he knew he’d have a sore arm the next morning but that didn’t matter. all that mattered was you. keeping you warm, safe and close. 

“night night shinso...~”

“goodnight kitty cat, sleep dreams. and y/n, you’re more than enough.” you’re laying on his arm, head buried in his chest and hands wrapped around his neck. he nuzzles his lavender head onto yours, placing another gentle peck on your head before the both of you drift off to sleep. in the comfort of one another.

Round 2 Finished!

Round 2 polls have all ended! Winners and the percentage by which they won are below the cut. Any episode that won by less than 5% is bolded.

A few notes on the winners:

5 out of 16 episodes are from the post-Kripke era, a relatively similar distribution to Round 1's winners (31.25% to 35.42% last round)

Episodes from seasons 1-8 all made it in. Seasons 2, 4, and 5 are now the most represented, with 3 episodes each graduating into Round 3.

This was a much closer round than the last one! Highlights included Metamorphosis beating out Bad Day at Black Rock and My Bloody Valentine beating out American Nightmare in the last few hours of their polls, The Great Escapist beating out On the Head of a Pin in the last fifteen minutes of its poll, and Born Under a Bad Sign and Nightmare going into a runoff after their original poll ended in a tie. The runoff was also extremely eventful, flipping back and forth between the two in a hotly contested race until Nightmare finally took the lead in the final half hour.

While Round 1 averaged about 200-250 votes per poll, this round averaged closer to 400 votes per poll. Group 8 (3x03 v 9x10 v 4x04) had the most with 549 votes, Group 4 (5x13 v 7x14 v 2x10) had the least with 261 votes. The 1x14 v 2x14 runoff poll blew the rest out of the water, however, with a whopping 878 votes.

Round 3 will be 8 polls of 2 and will start this (Sammy) Friday, 4/7!

Repo Man (7x15) - 2%

The Man Who Knew Too Much (6x22) - 18.7%

Dark Side of the Moon (5x16) - 7.9%

Hello :), i was wondering if You could write a ahsoka tano + reader ( pletonic ) and how's it like seeing her when she comes back. And how they both react to seeing eachother again . ( Maybe they were friends before ahsoka left the order ) I think it's the Siege Of Mandalore ARC? I don't really know :,)

hello! here it is, i hope you enjoy it! i don't think this is totally canon compliant, but i tried to generally fit it with the episode :)

words: 878

summary: When you are called to the Resolute for a mission, you could never expect who you would get to see again.

ahsoka tano masterlist

Together Again

“Did Anakin tell you what this was about?” you asked Captain Rex as the two of you walked down one of the winding hallways on the Resolute.

Rex shook his head. “No, all I got was a cryptic comm saying that they were sending a transport for me and that I needed to get back here immediately.”

“Me too,” you said. “But something seemed off about him when he commed, I wonder what happened that we’re getting called back.”

When you finally got to where Anakin told you to meet him, your observation about him seeming “off” was absolutely correct, even though you couldn’t yet figure out why. The look on your friend’s face seemed to be one of almost disbelief, like he had somehow seen a ghost. Master Kenobi also looked slightly shaken, which surprised you because he had always been better at keeping his emotions to himself than Anakin was. “Good, you two are here,” Obi-Wan said, nodding at you and Rex. “We believe we may have found Darth Maul.”

You nodded, starting to (maybe) understand why Anakin had the shocked looked on his face. You (and the entire Jedi Order) had pretty much written Maul off at this point, thinking that unless he specifically got wanted to get your attention, no one would ever see him again until it was too late.

Eventually, as you started to think about what was happening, you looked quizzically at the two Jedi. “What do you want me to do?”

“You and Rex will take half of the 501st to Mandalore, where we’re being told that Maul is hiding out. Anakin and I have been called back to Coruscant to assist in rescuing the chancellor, so we cannot accompany you.”

“Wait, he’s on Mandalore?” you asked. “If we get involved, won’t that invalidate years of agreements with the Mandalorians? I don’t want to fight two wars at once.”

“Exactly,” Obi-Wan said. “We have a few contacts on their way that will hopefully be able to present a good enough case for us to help them.”

As Obi-Wan spoke, you noticed a glimmer of something in Anakin’s eye, but it was an emotion that you couldn’t recognize right then and there. “Who are the contacts?”

Anakin and Obi-Wan exchanged a look between them before your question was answered, and you knew that meant whoever was showing up had to be important. “It’s Ahsoka,” Anakin eventually said, and for a moment you didn’t really register what he had said.

When you did register his words though, your reaction was instantaneous. “Are you serious?” you asked, and you could see Rex’s face change as well. “Is she here yet?”

“No. But her coordinates indicated that she is not too far from our location.”

You didn’t even bother to listen to the rest of the conversation going on around you and your mind raced as you thought about the situation. Ahsoka had been a close friend of yours for quite some time, since you had been assigned to assist Anakin and the 501st for many of their missions. It broke your heart to see her leave the Order, but at the same time you completely understood why she did it.

The prospect of seeing your friend again brought a smile to your face, and you waited anxiously for her ship to dock. Anakin and Obi-Wan stood beside you, but Rex had gone to inform the 501st about the way that things were going to unfold from here on out. When the docking doors finally closed and she stepped out onto the ramp, you and R2 wasted no time, immediately walking over to where she was approaching.

“Y/N?” Ahsoka asked, and you could see the shock and disbelief on her face. “But Anakin said-”

“I wasn’t sure if we were going to be able to send the transmission out in time,” Anakin said. “So I didn’t want to get your hopes up.”

The second she stepped onto the floor of the docking bay, you wrapped your arms around her, and she returned the hug. There was a voice in your head that wondered whether or not you were dreaming, because you had fully accepted the possibility that you would never see your friend again after she left the order (and here she was right now). “There’s so much I want to talk to you about,” she said as you pulled apart from each other, and you could see the icy glare of her Mandalorian companion from over her shoulder. “But we have a really important mission on our hands, so I know it has to wait.”

You nodded. “We’ll have to catch up after this is all over,” you said, turning towards Anakin and Obi-Wan, who started to approach you and Ahsoka.

“That’s a good idea.”

You were incredibly uncertain about the mission that currently stood in front of you, but knowing that you had your friend at your side once more suddenly made things a little less nerve-wracking. “Come on,” you said, gesturing for her to follow you in the direction of where Rex and the rest of the 501st was and leaving Anakin and Obi-Wan to deal with the diplomacy. “There’s a few more people we need to say hello to.”

Triple Kuaidul Cuddles

Description: Kuaidul has found a way to clone himself, much to the overwhelming joy of his partner.

Word Count: 878

AO3 Link if you prefer, though I do mention spoilers for the newest Go Rush episode in the author's note there:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/54382198

“My human!” Kuaidul rushed into the living room with a huge grin on his face. “I have devised a new way to show you affection!”

I shifted in my spot on the couch, gazing at Kuaidul curiously. “What’s this new way?” I asked, perking up a bit. A grin like that on his face would probably set off alarm bells for anyone else but to me, he just looked so gosh darn adorable.

Kuaidul held his arms out. “Observe and be amazed!”

Flashes of green light appeared beside him, forming his outline and becoming more and more solid and before long, the pieces of light were two fully formed Velgearians bearing Kuaidul's exact appearance.

My jaw dropped. “U-uh… Uh…”

I got to my feet and stared at the now three Kuaiduls, my heart racing in my chest. Their three pairs of big glowing green eyes seemed locked on me, and their fluffy blond hair was spiked and shaped in all the same ways that his always was, as though they were exact reflections pulled straight from a mirror.

“Pretty impressive, right?” Only the middle Kuaidul, the original one, spoke, maintaining that big goofy smile of his.

“W-what are you planning with this?” It was a struggle to get the words out through my racing heart and flushing face.

All three Kuaiduls took a step closer in perfect unison. I barely bit back a squeak.

“I want to cuddle, of course!” The middle Kuaidul exclaimed, his hands held up in an excited almost victorious sort of manner.

“W-with three of you?” A shudder wracked my body at the thought and it was a struggle to breathe now through the immense heat coursing through my body, primarily my face.

The middle Kuaidul let out a dark chuckle. “Did you think these copies were just for show, my dearest?”

There was a smirk on Kuaidul’s face as he gestured to the two copies. The copies didn't move in unison this time however: they stood completely still, though they all bore Kuaidul's signature smirk right now.

“S-so…” My breath caught in my throat. “They're both… Physical?”

All three Kuaiduls nodded.

I let out a nervous chuckle. “I-I don’t know if the world is ready for three of you wreaking havoc…”

“But you are my world.” Kuaidul’s response was immediate, and more soft-spoken than his usual verbose demeanour.

“I take it back!” I hopped in front of the middle Kuaidul, taking his hands and gazing up into his eyes. “I am ready to let you and your copies cuddle with me!”

Kuaidul let out a happy squeak. “Yay!”

Three pairs of arms were around my shoulders and waist in an instant, making me squeak in surprise.

“Sh-shouldn't we…?” I rested my hands on one of the six arms, still barely able to move. “O-on the couch at least?”

“Yes!”

I gasped when I was swept off my feet, laid out over the three sets of arms as though they were a bed. Apparently it took three Kuaiduls to lift one human.

“I shall cuddle my beloved human on the couch!” Kuaidul exclaimed, his smile as bright as the sun as he sat down.

“Y-you know I have a name…” My voice came out in a mumble as I was set in the real Kuaidul’s lap, making my face flush further.

Kuaidul nodded. “Indeed!”

The three sets of arms wrapped around me again, one from behind and one from either side of me, all feeling so familiar and safe despite being so overpowering. Kuaidul on his own wasn’t strong enough to physically hold me in place. However, with three of him practically surrounding and smothering me with affection, it seemed easier than breathing.

“Then call me by my name,” I grumbled, closing my eyes and leaning into a hand that rested on my cheek.

Kuaidul brushed his cheek against mine, leaning close to my ear to whisper. “Hawkie.~”

I flinched, a gasp cracking in my throat. “N-not THAT name!”

“Yes, that name, Hawkie,” Kuaidul teased.

Three fingers from three different feather-soft hands stroked my chin in unison. I leaned my head back into Kuaidul's shoulder, grunting a little as I pressed my cheek against his.

“You are so…” I let out a contented sigh. “Much… Kuaidul… My Kuaidul… You’re wonderful…”

“Do go on, dearest,~” Kuaidul insisted, the fingers of one of his many hands stroking my short hair.

There was a note of longing in his voice. It was obvious what he wanted and I was more than willing to provide it.

“You're amazing, Kuaidul.” My voice was soft but filled with affection. “I love you more than there are stars in the universe. You’re the light in my darkest times. I will love you now and forever.”

A small sob slipped out of Kuaidul and I winced when I felt his tears dampen our cheeks.

“Kuaidul?” I couldn’t turn around and look at him with all his arms around me so I settled taking one of his hands. “Was that too much?”

“No.”

Kuaidul pressed his lips against my cheek. Then the other. Then my forehead, gripping my hand tighter. I sighed again. My body and mind had sunk into a sea of pure soft Kuaidul mush and it never wanted to leave.

Dimensional Shift - Chapter 2

Story Summary: Maria was just a regular girl, worked at a gas station, wrote fanfic, and loved Supernatural. She even created her own supernatural creature for her writings. When the aurora borealis comes to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, one Halloween night, everything changes for her in ways she never expected. Will she be able to navigate this new world she's thrown into?

Word Count: 878

Please don't take my work. I'll post warnings for each chapter. Will eventually be 18+!

Warnings: Controlling parents, angst, family issues, weird events, drinking.

----------------------------------------- Chapter 2

It was late, nearly midnight on Halloween. She’d watched a couple of episodes of Supernatural after her shift at the corner store while eating dinner, then got back to writing. She had been so engrossed with her latest fanfic that the time passed without her knowing it as the words flowed from her fingers onto the screen before her.

When midnight hit, though, the lights in her studio apartment flickered, and the aurora borealis could be seen outside. That shouldn’t have been possible, not with her living in South Dakota. Maria got up from the table and headed toward the window above her day bed. 

Of course, her mind went to Supernatural; it was all she thought about, especially if anything odd happened, and this was more than odd. She could also almost feel the electricity in the air around her as she reached the window and looked outside. Maria would have found the sky beautiful if she hadn’t thought like a hunter out of Supernatural. The greens, blues, yellows, reds, and purples all seemed to blend together in odd ways as they danced across the night sky. Several shooting stars, which were meteors, streaked across the horizon. Her mind raced with questions: what the hell was happening? 

The power then went out in the entire city before a bright, blinding white light shined everywhere for a second, then it was gone, as was the aurora borealis, and the power was back on. Maria’s heart was pounding in her chest, and it felt like it was hard to breathe while the hair on the back of her neck stood on end, and goosebumps ran down her body. 

Can’t sleep now, she thought to herself as she walked into her tiny kitchen, retrieving a bottle of whiskey and a glass before sitting back in front of her laptop. She poured herself a glass, but when she went to go back to her fanfic, it wasn’t there. Most of her personal information from the thing was gone, almost as if it didn’t exist. She spent the next hour attempting to figure out what had happened and why her things were missing, including her favorite fanfic sites that she had written for numerous times. 

She sighed through her nose before taking another drink of her whiskey, it no longer lightly burning the back of her throat as she was halfway through it.

Great, what the hell was that damn light, she thought to herself.

She got back on her laptop and attempted to search it out, knowing someone had to have captured it with their phone, but she found nothing. That was when she noticed the date on the bottom right corner of her laptop, 9/16/2008.

“That’s not even possible…” her voice trailed off as she stared at the date. It was supposed to be October 31, 2022. 

Maria believed in the older beliefs, where things started, and knew that All Hallow’s Eve allowed the veil between the world of the living and dead to be thinner than usual. Still, she had never really put a lot of faith in much of any religion in her life. 

“Could it really have taken me back in time, and if so, why am I still the same as I was?” Maria’s mind raced.

She went back to her laptop and attempted to look herself up. Why not right, just to see, but there was no record of her, her parents, or her family anywhere online, not even on social media. She leaned back in her chair, sipping her whiskey, perplexed and puzzled. Her father’s law firm didn’t even appear on a single search. Her drink was gone, so at this point, she just began drinking from the bottle but didn’t even realize that she didn’t feel any buzz; her mind was too distracted by what had happened. She continued looking for anything online, even friends she used to talk to, but found no record of them either.

According to the time on the bottom right corner of her laptop, it was only nine at night. Her head was spinning, but it wasn’t from the alcohol. She hadn’t noticed that all her contacts in her phone were gone; the photos that had once held pictures of her with her family and friends had completely vanished, as had the tattoo of a black cat on the front of her left shoulder. It wouldn’t even make any sense to her until the morning, and she had no idea. 

Maria had finished her bottle of whiskey, mostly frustrated at losing her writing but also at the fact that she couldn’t find any information she had been looking for to figure out what had happened with the aurora borealis, the short power outage, and that bright light. She spent another hour online, still looking for some shred of anything to ease her worrying mind, but still found nothing before she finally called it a night, crawling into her bed and sleeping.

Her dreams were always the same, at least this last year; they were of Supernatural and Dean, of the fanfics she had written and ones she still had yet to write. She had no nightmares, just her fantasies playing out while she slept.

one thing I think is underrated about FMA is that while May’s search for the perfect shoujo love interest, is while it is played a bit for laughs, it’s not like “her quest is stupid and she’ll never find a guy like that! girls and their stupid romantic fantasies!.”

 No it’s that she’ll absolutely find a guy like that! and it’s Al. Ed isn’t remotely qualified, but Al is Fully Qualified to the be the Perfect Wholesome Shoujo Love Interest, May zeroed in on that immediately,and she was fuckin’ right and got what she wanted. She found herself a guy who’s gallant (yet troubled! They’re a bit starcrossed!), pets and kidnaps stray cats and believes firmly in being a gentleman. Arakawa was like “yeah one of my main characters is an ideal shoujo love interest. I want to stress that”. May isn’t ultimately punished for having a shoujo romance mindset in a shonen manga, she’s rewarded and Arakawa forces the reader to realize one of their leads would be pretty cute love interest in a manga aimed towards girls. I enjoy that. Delightful.

(It also forces readers, if they care to think about it, to realize Al has a pretty romance oriented mindset too, that the gag comics don’t come out of nothing. Because of all the other stuff that’s going on and the neverending horror of his life, it’s limited to little asides like “man i wanted to find a gf before I died :/” and stuff like that, but he would love to be in a shoujo romance too. He’s there already, he just got fucking sidetracked by all this other nonsense. That’s what I’m thinking is missing from the “Al was supposed to be the mc”. He is! But he’s not a shounen mc who got derailed. No, in Al’s world he’s the lead guy in a shoujo who got derailed, goddammit).

Gundam having a girl react to this line by calmly saying “yeah we all knew it would be tight get over it” rather than getting flustered and angry and in denial over the horror of being flat chested...this show truly is breaking barriers in anime.

Rewatching FMA also reminds me like, what a failure it is that My Hero Academia had that episode where Deku realized the huge emotional strain that him hurting himself  and not including her in his decisions has put on his Mom and resolves to do better, but as far as I can tell the narrative completely,,, fuckin’ forgets that?

When the same basic thing happens in FMA, as far as Ed and Winry go, Ed NEVER FORGETS IT. “I will not do things that hurt Winry, and when I don’t value myself or communicate it hurts her” never stops being a thing in Ed’s mind. He still sometimes acts recklessly but then literally thinks “I fucked up better fix this I promised not to make my girlfriend cry” She is genuinely always in his thoughts.

like other shonen action manga try to replicate this but don’t do the followthrough. It’s just a one episode thing and then it’s like BYE CIVILIAN FEMALE CHARACTER BACK TO THE SHELF WE’LL NEVER THINK ABOUT YOUR NEEDS OR THE EMOTIONAL LABOR YOU DO AGAIN but Winry’s needs and the moral of valuing her emotional labor and getting her up to date on what’s happening are present throughout the whole narrative. She’s not an action hero yet she has an arc?? She’s important? this STILL is never present in all the shonen I’ve seen that have come out since, like somehow arakawa still stands out for grasping this simple concept, we haven’t gotten past this yet.

Can other shonen action manga learn about follow through please.

Edit: Did an entire article about this! Here it is!

Love how Loid is like ‘my wife, a supposedly average woman, is demonstrably better and stronger than me, a top spy who trained to take out multiple people at once, in hand to hand combat, and in our briefest encounter where she was drunk, I was sure she was going to kill me, thank god she passed out” and then continued on his merry way without suspecting a thing, like what were his thoughts??? “Guess she really learned a lot in that self defense class she said she took! Impressive as always, Yor”???

For someone constantly trying to get famous for her work, Eizouken hits close to home in a lot of ways but none more so than coming up with calling cards and logos and plans for years in advance before I've even done anything

the new MLP generally doesnt have anything worth talking about in it but id like to point out that one episodes plot features the Streamer character getting caught in a cave and opening a livestream where she begs her followers to come save her and im having a hard time imagining even one Twitch streamer whose audience would react in a helpful manner in that situation

reading through El Goonish Shive for the first time, im obsessed with the fact that the author apparently had no knowledge of 2000s Gender Politics while writing, and was just writing what they thought was cool at the time. The comic many people have told me was their trans awakening just happened to stumble into the role of one of the most progressive of the time (ESPECIALLY during the homophobic as fuck 2000s) out of sheer coincidence.

I'm also very happy that Jack Black is bringing us a mix of intimidating Bowser's Fury Bowser and bombastic prideful Bowser- this is the guy who kidnapped literal fairies and then built an amusement park named after him to imprison them

say what you will about homestuck but my cashier today at gamestop mentioned she was into webcomics and when we launched into homestuck discussion she whipped out a Nepeta impression with the face of someone who had been waiting five years for another chance at it but hadn’t atrophied a day and it was the cutest shit ever
