I want you to tell me all of your most fucked up fantasies and then do them to me. Flirting

I just recently started following you so i don't have the full lore of your murderous gay religiously traumatized doggos, BUT, from my understanding, they are Italian and i don't know what part of Italy they are from, yet i can't help headcanoning Vasco as Tuscan, while Machete is probably from some part of Veneto. And as an Italian who has heard Tuscans and Veneto dialet, well it's an hilarious mental image.

Vasco is indeed Tuscan, Florentine to be specific. He comes from a wealthy and influential noble family that has lived in Florence for centuries. He's proud of his roots, and it's usually easy for strangers to tell where he's from. He's a resonably successful politician and has worked as an ambassador and representative of Florence on numerous occasions.

Machete is originally Sicilian (ironically about as far from Veneto as possible), although he was taken to mainland at young age and has lived in several places since then, before ending up in Rome. The way I see it, he exhibits very little local color, his demeanor and (even though Italian hadn't become a standardized language yet) way of speaking are formal, neutral and scarcely give away any hints about his personal history, at least in the 16th century canon.

I want a real man to play with my tits

ok hear me out you know how pelicans sometimes symbolize jesus because medieval guys thought pelicans would stab their chests with their beaks so the chicks could eat and be sustained by their blood. so pelicans are like self sacrificial. and jesus sacrificed himself for man. what if vash's fursona is a pelican.

i might actually post the rough of this because the first scenes are just enough info to keep u guessing and introduce the actual plot and like, 99% a ridiculously fluffy, sans-centric character study of theway he feels about frisk post pacifist that's been rattling around in my head forever

the dead poets & their favourite “the tortured poets department” songs <3

Todd = who’s afraid of little old me? and i hate it here (he cried listening to both of these for the first time)

Neil = florida!!! and who’s afraid of little old me? (loves the dramatic songs that make him feel like he’s been cast as the main character in a film)

Knox = down bad and the alchemy (he’s a hopeless romantic through and through we know this)

Charlie = i can do it with a broken heart and but daddy i love him (puts on over-the-top drunk performances for the other poets when they’re all hanging out on a saturday night)

Meeks = cassandra and peter (loves any song with literary/historical themes and loves dissecting the lyrics for all the little details)

Pitts = so long, london and how did it end? (secretly loves listening to the saddest songs possible while he’s studying)

Cameron = the prophecy and the bolter (pretends he’s not that bothered but secretly can’t stop listening)

BONUS: neil and todd bond over having the same favourite track (who’s afraid of little old me?) but for completely different reasons (for todd it reminds him of growing up as the shy/anxious kid who is constantly underestimated, and for neil it makes him think about his relationship with his dad)

I am begging on my knees for new tloz fans who have only played botw, to get themselves an emulator and start playing I take no excuses. Or read the tloz lore books (Hyrule Historia/Encyclopedia) and read the lore of the older games (and ignore the timeline cause it's pointless that will make you more confused 👉👈)

sometimes i will see opinions abt fiction that are like. you're not wrong? but also that's the point. this isn't an opinion that's what the story is about and a core thing about it. yes all characters in this story are assholes and that's the whole point of a group of misfits and criminals coming together like if they were all good and perfect it would simply be a different story. the villain made a good point because he was supposed to make you think about the actions the heroes take against him and how good THEY are for taking them. like you're so close here bestie 😔 come on

I'll always get emotional about the QSMP because I remember being seven in my classroom and cutting paper to make "papel picado" as an art project for Día de Muertos, years later I got to talk about that tradition with people all over the world. I also remembee being eight and reading about Carnivals all over the world and being amazed at every description and picture from the Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro and today I get to listen directly from Brazilians and talk about this festivity, learning so much; these are only some of my personal examples. The QSMP continues to shown how wonderful cultural exchanges and appreciation can be, makes me fucking furious seeing people in the fandom having to face so much xenophobia and racism.

What's an anti-anti? Or an anti for that matter

Oh my friend I am so sorry to introduce you to the shitpile that is antishipping discourse

Anti is short for "antishipper", which is someone who believes certain types of ships are immoral and nobody should ship them or engage with media about them. Exactly what types of ships that includes varies (because morality will always be vague at best and you can't meaningfully categorise anything into "always good" and "always bad"), but people usually take issue with incest, ships involving one or more minors, age gaps, etc.

I consider myself a proshipper/"anti-anti" purely because I think this kind of discourse is extremely inane and potentially harmful.

Antis tend to say "problematic" ships "normalise" harmful dynamics in real life, ignoring that exploring these ideas in fiction is a safe way of engaging with darker topics and sometimes people do so to process personal trauma. Personally I've found that reading fanfiction about dark topics made me wayy more emotionally prepared to handle discussion of them in real life.

And, as I said, it's nearly impossible to draw a solid line between what should be allowed and what shouldn't be allowed. Age of consent is an arbitrary number that's chosen because legally you need a strict number if you're going to enforce the law, but a person 1 year older and 1 year younger than the age of consent aren't actually that much different. Plus the law varies from country to country, but antis tend to choose the US age of 18 because the US dominates the internet. Age-gaps between two non-minor characters get even more blurry!! And let's not forget that a ship between two men is way more likely to be flagged as pedophilia than a ship between a man and a woman. Imo if you can't make a concrete rule about it there's no point in making a rule at all.

Plus it's fiction, and not even mainstream fiction, so it's hardly gonna cause any significant shift in real life culture. These ships get criticised to hell and back in fan spaces and people get properly harassed over it, but there are plenty of professional writers portraying these things in well known media and don't get much flack for it at all - because it's way easier to tear down a fan, your equal, than a creator. It seems to me that the problem isn't really "normalising" these behaviours, because if that was the case mainstream media would be a much bigger contributor than fandom

For some reason, toxic/abusive ships are less commonly criticised despite being objectively harmful to the characters involved, and incest is the one people hate the most despite it being (imo) the one least likely to cause actual harm to the characters. Also depictions of rape and sexual abuse are usually considered off limits but you rarely get the same criticism of, say, depictions of murder. The sexual aspect of the topic seems more important than the actual harm.

AND THEN there's the fact that antis generally only argue against the ships that make them personally feel uncomfortable. Different people have different boundaries for what they consider too far, and I lose my shit every time I see antis shipping something I know other antis claim is the devil. And often the whole thing gets coopted by someone who doesn't like people shipping characters A and B because they ship B and C. ("You can't ship these unrelated characters because they're sibling-coded which makes the ship basically incest" is something I've seen a truly bonkers amount of times)

So yeah. That's the whole mess. Like I said I dont really care about whether or not antis follow me? I'm proship purely because I don't think this is a conversation that needs to be had at all. Like who cares But, go wild, romanticise the hell out of the most repulsive things!! It's nobody else's business but yours. But if I see a mutual who followed me first reblogging "any proshippers who follow me should explode and die teehee ^-^" ONE MORE TIME I might actually explode
