#he is instant crushing he just doesnt understand

[tsurugis]

pfndvskdvfh i was looking for something in an old post and im side eying me saying in november that fenriel wouldn't stay a kid or teen for longer than half the first book. that fucker has aged a grand total of like a month by the end of it lolllllllll hes still 12

[thatumbrellaoni]

yugis just so glad to see setos alive!! going doki doki and staring at him with them big ol eyes (yugi is so small). its a very hopeful and cute scene.

and then this very earnest question

"kaiba-kun! did nothing change (for you) at all? are you the same as before...?"

yugi just wants to befriend him ;-; he believes in seto so much. the sincerity of this scene grips my heart and crushes it. Im in tears.

yugi can have little crush on seto 🤭 I'll allow it. so cute.

also btw.

seto explains duel disk tech and jounouchi, not understanding, just calls it "battle instant yakisoba". I was so baffled by this but I think thats what takahashi-sensei actually intended lmao

I think its because the squares look like the containers???? and then the steam rising would be the monsters manifest―idk I researched and every source says jounouchi just doesnt understand and blurts out something more nonsensical. thats it thats all, take it at face value!!

this duel disk version is meme-ingly called "battle instant yakisoba type"

How’re you feeling about the persona characters so far

there are so many characters. i will give my thoughts on the ones i can remember

joker/ren/akira/whatever: WHAT IS GOING ON WITH HIM. theres something under the surface i can FEEL IT something is up with him. i need to know what. he also carries my entire team in battle because i have one of those free personas from the velvet room that i think come with the dlc (??) thats like fuckin level 76 so he does like 500 damage per turn

morgana: thought he was female for the entirety of the first 2 palaces. anyway. personality wise he's nowhere near the most annoying character which is an achievement for a weird animal sidekick. would love to know what the hell is going on with him. becoming more and more convinced he is not in fact human and is actually just like a cat that accidentally gained sentience or something

ryuji: best character in the game thus far and i mean that completely unironically. i love him hes such a good kid... like hes so earnest and genuine and i really believe the whole righteous anger thing coming from him yknow? it's not quite as strong with some of the other characters but his motivation for joining the theives was really clear and well-done

ann: i want to like her so bad. genuinely i do. but she is annoying. it's not her fault tho she could be good i know she could be. she is just unfortunately in a japanese visual novel and therefore she needs to be annoying and have her tits out at all times. like if they would give her a fucking PERSONALITY she would be an infinitely better character but her only hobby is literally Being A Model

yusukue: benched the instant i was allowed to do so. in general i dislike both the edgy-guy archetype and the honor student archetype (on men lol this doesnt apply to you makoto my love <3) and he is just. the worst of the 2 combined plus he says weird shit about ann every 3 minutes. every time he opens his mouth i want to kill him

makoto: QUEEN. her heals save my ass in battle constantly. again she has one of the better-written origin stories of the thieves which puts her pretty high on my list but i also find her connection to sae so interesting!! ive yet to see where it goes but i REALLY hope they follow through with that

akechi: 90% sure he can enter the metaverse, my evidence for this being one singular scene in which it was vaguely implied that he could understand morgana. aside from that im obsessed with him for the same reasons im obsessed with every other detective character ive ever come across in my life. detectives just scratch a special little itch in my brain man idk. hes everything to me and i sincerely hope the game ends with either him dramatically, emotionally killing joker or vice versa a la death note

kasumi: somehow is both the painfully generic love interest character and has more personality than ann. i hope her gymnastics tryouts go ok and my condolences for the crush on a gay man

takemi: i do not understand why someone liked her enough to put her on their car. very nice of her to illegally sell me meth or whatever tho

i know im missing a bunch of characters but these are the only ones i have strong enough thoughts abt to remember rn LMAO

yakuza 1 kiwami thoughts after finishing it, very mixed feelings about this game :v

WHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. WHO. HOW. WHAT THE HELL IS THIS. the story. the COMBAT.

i get it. i really do. this is probably a project they started and finished in a short time by reusing assets and pulling the old motion capture data from the master and applying it in the remake. the future of the series hinged on this very flawed original ps2 game. the pacing doesnt let the story sink in and ferment as a result of this ps2 mocap. i get it.

the graphic updates are great. majima everywhere is actually really fun. kamurocho is super cool. the dialogues in the substories and MES are zingers. wonderful. amazing. the pores on everyone's face, fuck yeah. gimme that!

BUT. the main game makes me want to drop a sega arcade machine in front of SEGA's building over in japan. the maimai machines are getting it.

because i genuinely. i dont understand why certain decisions are done in the creation of this game.

story wise i get trying to preserve the og as much as possible and changing things as minimally as possible but. but. i would have re-written a lot of things. hell, i would have rewritten at least one thing and that is yumi.

as it is theres a lot of bits that seems like *checks notes* mr. yokoyama was on the fence about. but sir. SIR.

if you flesh out nishiki, flesh out yumi too. they are a package deal to kiryu's character foundations. im actually really ok with nishiki despite that ending where kiryu and nishiki dont talk! but then yumi??? she hasnt endeared me. COME ON SEDUCE ME MR. YOKOYAMA, SEDUCE ME WITH HER LIKE YOU DO YOUR MEN! im playing as kiryu, so for the love of GOD SEDUCE/ENDEAR HER TO ME.

щ(゜ロ゜щ)!!! WYD!!! you kind of did it with reina with y0!! sir!!

and also, why is yumi's tattoo and literal key defining trait is that shes beautiful (with the gekka bijin shit) and thats. it. beauty = instant love interest for kiryu and nishiki. this was already stupid in 2005 asian dramas, it was stupid in the 90s and its still stupid today. (source: me with all these asian dramas absorbed as background noise growing up)

if yumi doesnt get fleshed out, then drop the romance. just tone it down or drop it altogether. id even argue theres even maybe a better foundation for her to be kiryu's sister than romance, but thats my personal opinion stemming purely from the lack of polish she gets.

there is no in between here imo. the problem is that kiryu seems very... dense when it comes to romance and sex to the point that he reads like one on the ace spectrum. in y0 hes 20 and so reads like his brain was button mashing the hormones, so that still tracks for me. i can also accept him being attracted to anyone but that attraction must come with screen time. he spends more time thinking about nishiki and worrying where haruka's mom is than he thinks about yumi.

this poor butchered girl. yumi's character quality is like. as good as the ring he gave her. a mcguffin. hhhhhhgh. and then she dies getting shot by the guy she decided to move on with while kiryu is in jail instead of waiting for him, like shes... getting punished for it... jesus christ this writing choice is dreadful.

fine whatever... j-drama tragedy and all that. i can still accept all of these flaws bc y7 and y8 are such a GREAT time, and mr. yokoyama has clearly gotten better at this writing thing.

in retrospect for y8 personally, maybe kiryu is so dense he doesnt realize this love is more like a crush or some platonic or familial affection. and in y8 that has evolved into a twisted what if scenario hitch-hiking on his sense of longing for an alternate future that isnt rooted in any reality. (did they date???????????? even stayed together for a while to see if they were compatible in their daily lives or language? i think majima has even cleared the dating hurdle with MES here...)

THE COMBATTTT WHYYYYYYYYYYY

im. what. what is this. did people QA this enough?

so a bit about Game Design: Crowding.

generally, when the Player Character in an action game is surrounded by multiple enemies, it is ALWAYS a good idea to code some semblance of chill into the AI. if a few enemies starts whacking the PC, then the others in the crowd must hang back and chill. otherwise the PC gets stun locked and their health drains to a flat 0 leading to a game over in a snap.

fps games does this by purposefully making enemies have poor aim.

action games does this by limiting the amounts of attacks on screen from enemies.

so. why is it. the enemies here have a built in auto dodge, block and a stun lock dog piling brain.

not even monster hunter has this amount of read coded into their attack patterns. neither does the souls games. it's also offset by the longer than usual attack animations that asks the player to both read and commit on the screen from enemies and their own avatars alike.

but y1k. ?? ?? ?? ? ??????????????????? w h y. why did it toss out this piece of common sense out the window for the 2 brothers boss fight in debolah and for jingu. naze. doushite. wei shen me. WHY.

i think the most telling thing is when, during multiple BULLSHIT fights i was constantly thinking how i wished i was fighting majima instead...

majima is such a saving grace for me here. what a frustrating ride.

y1k reminds me so much of the same flaws gintama had early on, and i know for a fact things get good and there are good things in here. i really do like some of the plot points. but ugh. ghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhg.

it just wasn't. sincere enough. you know?

tiger drop.

the law of being friends with a male: chapter 20 (,,¬﹏¬,,)

genre,, fluff, friends to lovers, slow burn ?? 

pairing: junghoon x fem!reader 

warnings:a lot of dialogue,, 

masterlist 𓇢𓆸

taglist ^-^:  @dogyunslover @anxiousskylar 

@fordohyon  @yuniniverse 

a/n: HAIII this one took me so long LOL this chapter is junghoons pov! i think ill post the next chapter later today! lmk what yall think!!

⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ 

kim junghoon never believed in love at first sight. even in elementary school, when he received his first love confession. 

~~~~~

“i think you're great at studying.. also sports! and i wanted to thank you for holding my backpack the other day!!” junghoon’s classmate rambles to him with heart eyes. 

“thanks for the compliment, but..who are you?” 10 year old junghoon says plainly. 

~~~~ 

when he received his first love letter.. 

~~middle school~~

“omg whats this-“ jinsik gets interrupted by junghoon cover his eyes with his hand. 

“dont look.” 

~~~

or even that time when he received a love confession by text. 

~~

xxx 

‘youre mine. i want to date you. i think you're sooo cute⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂)⸝♡.’ 

“…” 

~~~ 

kim junghoon was perplexed by the sudden confessions of those people. in addition, his unaware personality played a significant role in this. of course, this was because of the fact that he had never fallen in love with someone so quickly. he wasn't the type to like someone in an instant. he was the type to develop feelings in a slow and steady way rather than fast and bold. the way to his heart was like a subtle rain, it need time and dedication to slowly fill a space there. but it wasn't until he met y/n that he felt that new sensation of having an instant crush. 

~~~

“this is y/n! she will be eating with us from now on, say hi~” jinsik introduces to junghoon. 

“h-hi.” y/n waves at junghoon nervously. 

“hello.” 

“so you're jinsik's friend who is always with him right? his name is junghoon?” y/n looks up at jinsik. 

  “thats right. i didn't introduce him to you earlier because he wasn't able to attend class the other day.” jinsik explained with a smile. 

“just like jiwoon! no wonder there were two empty seats that day..” y/n realizes. 

y/n and jinsik contiune having their conversation while junghoon stands there. 

‘shes so short.’ 

⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ 

that was his first impression of y/n. he could only see the top of her head unless she raised her face to speak to him. he hadn't give it much though at the time.  

the next impression he had of her was of her attitude towards him. when they made eye contact while talking, she immediately avoided his gaze. she always seemed surprised when they encountered each other. and the she’d try to apologized all of a sudden. however, that wasn't something junghoon disliked about her. thats because, despite her habit, she never avoided speaking to him. and after she acted surprised, she always turned back to normal. although there were a few misunderstandings, she never tried to avoid him. 

shes short. 

she gets flustered easily. 

shes very honest.

and… 

shes not good at understanding what her heart wants.

“i'll be meeting with y/n tomorrow, do you want to come?” jisik asks junghoon with a smile 

“i'm sure she'll love that too~~”  

'i'm sure she feels uneasy around me. why hadn't she said anything until now? perhaps, she really doesnt mind if i go with them..’ 

“where are you guys going?”

⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ ⋅˚₊‧ ଳ ‧₊˚ 

next day~~ 

“h-hi! you're early.” y/n waves.

“i came earlier becaus i took a taxi. jinsik i believe, will arrive a little late.” junghoon explains. 

“oh, really? how long?” 

“like 20 minutes.” 

y/n nods and stands next to him tensely. 

they share an awakward silence. 

‘she seems to be every uneasy. when were with jinsik she seems fine..what do they usually talk about?’ 

“today! the weather is pretty good, don't you think?!” y/n tries to make converstation. 

suddenly, rain decided to pour down on them. 

( ._. )"" 

‘should i make a joke about it like jinsik would? a joke…’ 

“you should take off your coat. to cover us from the rain.”  

…. 

“s-sure… if you really need it..” y/n begins to take off her jacket. 

“it was.. a joke.“ 

…. 

junghoon looks away. 

‘ugh..’ 

y/n clears her throat, catching junghoon’s attention. 

“we shouldn't stand here in the rain. i'll go buy an umbrella." junghoon says quicKly and starts wAlking. 

“h-huh? c-can we go together? i dont want to stay alone in the rain..!!” y/n catches up. 

“oh. its bettter if we go together.” he nods. 

y/n takes her jacket and wraps it around junghoon’s head. 

(╹ -╹)? 

“you can use mine and i'll use yours! could you please give it to me?’ y/n smiles. 

junghoon takes his jacket off and hands it to her.

“thank you! lets go!!!” she exclaims after tying his sweater around her head. 

they both start walking to the nearest convience store. 

… 

“we… look a little suspicious.” the girl breaks the silence. 

“i don't think it's a little.” 

“hm.. but we also look kind of funny! when is jinsik going to arrive? i'm sure he'll think that we look funny. don't you think?” she looks up at junghoon with a smile. 

in that exact moment, when he saw y/n under the rain wearing his sweater and smiling brightly.. 

“.. maybe.” he looks at her. 

he thought it would be nice if ham jinsik arrived later… and junghoon was quite surprised by that. 

he smiles at her.

“do you think we should wait for our clothes to dry… huh? are you serious?!” y/n exclaims as they walk outside the convience store to see the rain stopped. 

“it stopped raining.. we shouldn't have spent money on an umbrella.” y/n frowns as she looks up to the sky. 

“i guess it was just a rain cloud passing by.” junghoon looks up also. 

“well… at least.. the sky looks really pretty right now.” she continues to look up, admiring the clear sky. 

kim junghoon could be considered as a slow person in lots af ways. in his speech, typing, understanding things, and many more. but.. at that moment, he got lost in y/n’s eyes, which he had always thought they were just brown, but, thanks to the sunlight that was shining on her junghoon could be absolutely certain of it. 

“oh! its jinsik!” y/n exclaims as she seems jinsiks figure approaching. 

y/n smiles and walks up to him leaving junghoon behind. junghoon admires y/n from afar. he understood that he had completely fallen for y/n. but he also realized that y/n..didnt share the same feelings. and the only reason she never avoided him or asked him not to hang out is.. 

junghoon looks down and sighs. 

‘i guess she like jinsik. thats why she doesn't hate me.’ 

after realizing that in his mind, kim junghoon decided to not make his feeling obvious. he didn't want y/n to avoid him solely due to the pressure of being jinsik's close friend.

~~flashback to when they were talking about bora’s gift~~ 

junghoon watches the two infront of him hving a conversation. he couldnt keep his heart under control a well as he thought he could. so he couldn't help but look at y.n again. 

‘shes looking at jinsiks lips..’ 

he tried so hard to just see her as a friend but.. after jinsik seemed to gain better understading of his situation, and after y/n asked him if he had a crush on anyone. he was finally certain.

back to present. 

‘why…’  

junghoon sits down and hides his blushing face. 

‘she doesn't even like me… but why.. am i feeling like this?’ 

“aren't you going to submit you going to turn in your drawing?” y/n comes back to junghoon. 

he looks up at her, still red from earlier. 

“i just went to submit mine..” she smiles and points to the teacher.  

junghoon continues to look at her for a bit. 

‘why does it look like you're looking st me the same way you have been looking at jinsik..?’ 

‘y/n…’

sorry to be depressing but do you think there’s any chance for awsten to improve? I was a baby in the 2000s but from what I understand certain members fob, mcr, panic etc were incredibly messy and behaved in kind of obnoxious ways throughout their 20s and even into their early 30s and acted out due to combo of fame and mental illness but as they aged, had kids etc they calmed down and are now really respectful generally……pete in particular acted pretty misogynistic when his mental health was at his worst (and he was also subjected to insane amounts of media and fan scrutiny) and he was like 25ish but now obviously has grown up and matured since then. obviously tiktok didn’t exist back then but there was a similar fame-obsessed culture back in the 2000s. I know awsten definitely doesn’t have even a fraction of the kind of success that fob had at their peak but do you think there’s a chance of awsten following a similar trajectory and growing up? or do you think he’ll act like a dick forever? lol

no this is a good question!!! disclaimer i was not around following fob/mcr in the 2000s lol i am just a very dedicated student looking back across time. that being said the comparison between pete wentz and awsten is one ive talked about before because obviously awsten idolized pete and their lyrics are comparable (in a way that makes awsten come up short lol)…… but frankly i dont think they make a great comparison in this way.

like you mention fob reached much higher levels of fame than parx ever has (or will) but i think its hard to contextualize that if you werent there. pete was literally in EVERY mainstream tabloid constantly for a period of like 5 years. his dick pics leaking and then dating/marrying ashlee simpson while fob simultaneously became hugely popular AND hugely hated as an “emo band” defined a generation of celebrity. he was quite literally an A/B-lister. people magazine payed millions for exclusive photography rights for his first child. pete was one of the most papped people in america…. he was like FAMOUS (in)famous. in a very difficult way where it truly was like fame < infamy lol

awsten frankly invents most of his “celebrity problems” himself by being too online. that sounds harsh, but like, if he just Logged Off a little he can live a completely normal unhindered life in the real world. sure some fans might stop him for pics every now and again but he wont be literally tailed and SHOUTED AT by paparazzi like pete was lol. for all he gripes about the internet being too invasive to him he has actively curated and invited that for his whole ~career~ lol

so going back to your main question….. i dont know if hell get better? i think its hard because….. tiktok and the level of instant powerful crushing online fame it brings is NEW. the level of (sorry to use this word but literally) “cancel culture” on twitter and shit is unprecedented. did yall see allie x get instantly cancelled then redeemed in 24 hours the other day? shit is out of control. i cant even imagine what that stress feels like when every fan is willing to go for your throat for clout at any moment, esp with parx fans on …other websites being famous for shit-stirring every chance they get.

he might get better, and stop down this path of neurosis and being an ass online, but its gonna take something shifting him off that path. we cant use bands like fob/mcr as a blueprint bc this is so wildly different, imo. i think deep down he hates what hes become and what hes doing isnt fun for him either……. i just dont think he feels he has a choice. hes addicted to clout and virality as a lifeline tied to his perceived career now, and when he doesnt get the amount of attenion he expects you can literally WITNESS him panic and rage and melt down about it. i understand why, given the environment hes trying to operate in. but its a rough transformation to watch. im not saying theres no hope for him, but i think its gonna take something drastic to get him off this path lol :( hes also not showing any sign of “growing up” so its not like thats something that just automatically happens to people lol

BLUE CRUSH ANGEL

  martin luther was to the catholics what jesus was to the so called jews, its the same story, exactly the same played out again, and all the good christians became protestant thats why if any christianity gets any kind of mainstream play its catholicism, because its a captured church. satan captured  israel, he subverted it with his own flesh and blood, christ came and pointed out their lies and hypocrasy, martin luther did the same to the catholic church, and he wrote a treatise titled on the jews and their lies, a new reform is needed because Protestantism was captured by the jews in the early nineteen hundreds, but its had less time to ferment than their hold of the catholic church, if you have the time, just google any pope who was pope since there was photography and study pictures of their faces, these “italians” arent good men, they are cartoon caricatures of demons. 

 the appeal of catholicism is in its tradition and dogma, because these things are appealing to the simple minded, the pageantry and the pomp. that is exactly what the synagogue of satan was doing in the time of jesus, beguiling men with complex rules and lavish rituals of marriage and so on. they were impressive to mens sight. jesus was not impressive to look at, people take this to mean he was ugly i dont think thats whats meant and i believe he looked more or less exactly how hes been portrayed throughout most of history. whats meant by that is he wasnt strolling around in a purlple dress with a three foot tall mitre hat, but was dressed modestly, the truth doesnt need all that, and the people followed him on the power of the truth alone. but it is appealing to the hearts of men, Protestantism is basically any denomination thats not catholic or greek orthodox, so its an umbrella term that unfortunately includes literally homosexual pastors, butch lesbians teaching the rules of modern politeness based on select quotes, theres nothing edifying in that it is a path to the destruction of souls, but again its an umbrella term. and thats good! because the devil loves rigid social hierarchies because they are easiest to corrupt, he just needs to get his kids in the top slots and bingo you can change the religion however you see fit because you have authority. christ said let NO MAN be called teacher, none, that they were to be servants to each other equal under god, and bishops and ministers this just mean servant, so imagine the same scenario but in the united states we started calling our presidents servant, so it would be servant joe biden, thats what the catholic church has done with their royal servants who have thrones in private cities, they are kings calling themselves servants. god wanted us equal under him because like i said its hard to corrupt a decentralized church without a rigid power structure, and when you think about it thats how all the best criminal organizations are run because the police function how the devil does and they infiltrate with informants and flip people trying to get to the top guy, its as much practical advice as it is spiritual, and when you understand the world well enough there is little if any distinction between the two. another way to think of it is like a terrorist organization or a freedom fighting group whatever, the corrupt government wants a top down hierarchy so they can work their way up the chain and get the boss or better yet BECOME the boss thereby eradicating the group or making it wholly ineffective, what if the “group” was comprised of loosely associated lone wolves who shared little more than a common goal? well in that case they are fucked. so while i dislike some members of the protestant church there right now is no better alternative, its best to just read the bible yourself, understand it, and practice it while being loosely associated with other believers. the instant you tried to form an organized church that preached the true gospel the enemy would attempt to subvert it.

ML Lies Episode Predictions:

There’s Two?? (don’t trust my math) more days before lies completely destroys me, so I’m going to make some predictions, and by predictions I mean wishlist. My walls are already up, so if none of these happen I won’t be disappointed, but also a girl can dream: (this is somehow 1700 entire words long because I have a lot of feelings, so it’s under a cut, you’re welcome)

—Adrien and Kagami’s are secretly dating: please I want it so bad, I’ve talked about this so much and emotionally I need it!! At the very least I want them to sneak out together so so bad I’d cry. But also, if they’re hiding it from their other friends for whatever reason, thats SUCH good angst potential.

—If we get to see some kinda montage of them sneaking out??? Id ride that high for months. Even just one actual example of them working together to sneak out would obliterate me. Like, how it shows Kagami sneaking out to go to the game in Ikari Gozen?? I’d cry

—The breakup happens as a direct result of it being a secret relationship: this would be SUCH a good parallel to lukanette. Lukanette broke up because Luka wanted Marinette to be more open with him and he hated being in the dark, so just, the parallels if Adrien wants to be more open about adrimi and Kagami is like “you dont understand, if your dad finds out about us he will end this immediately” but Adrien wants to believe that its going to be okay and no one will react badly? I’m probably explaining this badly and I’ll try to explain it better later I just,,, want parallels and opposites and truth v lies and hhhhh

—Fencing??? Friendly/ affectionate competition??? Them being idiot jocks in love??? Please??? I want to see them compete!!

—I’d love to see Kagami character growth + Adrimi relationship development!!! I want her to love herself more and be more comfortable around him!!!

—Specifically, if there was a parallel to Riposte,, and Adrien beat Kagami in a fencing match and Kagami was like “Oh nice!! :D good game!” I’d be so happy I’d cry!! And it’s kinda implied by Chat Blanc that they’re already there in there relationship?? But not confirmed?? So if I saw it or saw confirmation of it I’d cry!!

—in one of the released photos it looked like they were holding hands??? And at this point my expectations are so low I don’t even trust it yet but blease,,, let them hold hands,, i’d cry of joy

—If Adrien is also constantly leaving and disappearing due to akuma responsibilities, I want it to read SUPER differently from the Lukanette because I love parallels/foils!! Marinette disappears on her dates with Luka and its just “oh marinette is really distracted and busy and frazzled” but I dont think Adrimi but be loke that at all!!! Because as far as Kagami knows, she has the same backstory/current story as Adrien. She’s risking a lot by sneaking out to go on dates with him?? So Adrien seeing an akuma and being like “oh sorry father is calling” isnt even suspicious or anything??? Its 100% believable!!! If her mother called she’d immediately be like “oh fricking heck i Need To Leave this instant immediately.” So its less “Adrien doesnt care about her” and more of just twisting the knife and reminding her that life doesnt want them to be together and Adrien is never going to be free!!! Big ouch to her heart!!!

—also I want!!!! Them!!! To talk about their feelings!!! Because parallels to truth!!! Adrien is like “sorry I have to go” and Kagami is like “oh I hate that so much” and Adrien is like “big same.” (Also idk how realistic this is but I’d love it if ‘Kagami talking about her feelings’ wasn’t the cause of strife in their relationship!! Like, she talks about how she feels and when she’s upset and Adrien is like “yeah me too” and they’re just,, good bros)

—I need them to stay friends after the breakup, i need it i need it i need it!!! And the whole issue is!! I feel like the main reason they’d date is to try and hang out more?!?? So if the breakup was actually them talking to each other and being like “hey so this isnt working with sneaking out, we’re going to need to go back to the way it was before,” rather than them saying they were bad for each other???? Hoo boy i’d lose my mind

—Also!!! My favorite prediction, I’d die of joy if this happened (and also of angst). I want there to be so much drama with “secret relatinship” stuff that they try to fix it by going public with their relationship!! Very low chance of this actually happening but its okay if it doesnt, thats what the fanfiction I’m inevitably going to write immediately after watching the episode is for!!! But anyway,, multiple ways this could happen.

Maybe they’ve been secretly dating since Miracle Queen and they decide to go public at the beginning of this episode and that’s the primary source of plot/conflcit!!! I’d be thrilled!!!

BUT!!! if the episode ends with then Not Breaking Up, but instead deciding to go from dating secretly to dating publicly???? Holy Freaking Heck,,, I’d go feral with emotion!!!! I also need to expand on this so much more but basic rundown of how I imagine it could happen (again: Is it likely?? Probably not! but this is my last chance to dream):

Kagami is like “listen we have the same backstory and I KNOW in my soul that this relationship wouldn’t work if it was public”

Adrien is like “okay yeah I feel you, thats fair”

Kagami goes on dates with Adrien and its fun and nice and lovely and the honeymoon phase is so good and exciting

Adrien starts disappearing a lot, partly because of akuma attacks, but partly because of nathalie and gabe calling him constantly

Adrien starts to be like “well actually i think that my dad does care about me probably? And if he knew why I wanted to go he’d let me! Or at least Nathalie would because clearly she cares about me!”

Kagami is like “hhhnngg have you met them?? You think they’d want you to be happy and free??” Except she can’t just SAY that because if she did then she’d be crushing Adrien’s entire heart and possibly also making him get really defensive and he has to come to the conclusion that his parents are good on his own

Kagami also starts to get frustrated with how much more often Adrien has to leave than she does?? And its because of akuma attacks but she doesnt know that and he cant tell her

Adrien starts to get frustrated because he can take the “having to leave for akuma attacks” part but when he finally finishes an akuma battle and Natalie immediately calls him it is just aaaaaAAAAAAAA and he just wants to believe so badly that he could at least take control of that part??? He could at least get Nathalie to help him out??? Probably maybe right???

Because we all know he HATES having to keep secrets from Ladybug, but he’ll do it for her, and he’ll keep his life as Chat a secret, but Kagami??? He should at least be able to talk about that, right?? He’s not doing anything bad/dangerous/etc

Also there could very well be some angst with Adrien being so so worried about Nathalie because she’s bedridden and his dad is being sketchy and he’s SEEN this before and he doesn’t want to be avoiding Natalie or lying to her because what if he loses her too??? He’d feel so guilty! And he needs the support of a parent figure so much,,, so he HAS to tell her the truth

But he respects Kagami’s wishes and he’s not going to betray her trust

But unlike Lukanette, they DO talk about their feelings and they disagree and stuff, and even if he’s trying not to be confrontational, Kagami is like “i can tell youre uncomfortable about something, please just tell me what it is” so he tells her that he disagrees

Kagami gets akumatized?? idk if it’s even been confirmed that she’s the akuma “Lies” but I’d assume she is because parallels to Lukanette

Maybe it happens as a direct result of some moment where Kagami and Adrien are arguing and in the heat of the moment he says something hurtful??

Maybe they’re arguing and then Adrien has to leave before it can resolve and Kagami is mad about it even though shes trying not to be and she gets akumatized???

Maybe she does say something like “bc your dad sucks and nathalie sucks!” and he yells or something (i want to see Adrien yell and be flawed let me live, and this is one of the most likely scenerios for it to happen bc it would HURT for him)

Maybe Kagami shoots back with anger, maybe Adrien’s been calm but Kagami gets mean for a moment, but regardless, Kagami says something about her true feelings of anger at nathalie/gabe/ etc and before Adrien can respond he’s like “oh shoot sorry I need to get home NOW”

Then for one brief second Kagami’s TERRIFIED that he’s going to tell nathalie about this in his anger and then nathalie’s going to be like “oh kagami is clearly bad for you because she made u this upset” and Adrien will LISTEN because hes stupid and he still listens to his horrible adult figures and Kagami is so mad about the entire situation so then in her moment of weakness she gets akumatized

Look at that its a direct opposite of Lukanette because Luka was afraid of Marinette keeping secrets about why she’s always vanishing because he doesnt know and Kagami is afraid of Adrien telling secrets about why HEs always vanishing bc she thinks she does know,,

But anyway, after she gets de-akumatized, she’s so ashamed of it and she can see how far she took it and how many people it hurt,, and Adrien is really sad and apologetic and trying to support her,, and she’s like “no clearly I was actually wrong, keeping this a secret is hurting you and its hurting me and now its hurting random civilians”

So she tells Adrien that they should tell people about it and stop dating in secret

And then multiple possible ending:

Does he say “actually no, youre right, they wouldnt let this happen, so if we cant date in public and dating in secret is hurting us then we shouldnt date at all” and thats how the breakup goes??? That would literally obliterate me

Does the episode end on a false positive where Adrien hasnt told them yet and he is like “yeah this is gonna be great” and there isnt an actual breakup yet?? Because that would also kill me (even though i doubt theyre going to let adrimi take up that much time in the show but, let me dream)

Also if Adrien is like “we shouldnt tell my parents but we should tell someone” and then they tell Marinette and now shes got ANOTHER secret to keep and aaaaaaaAAAAA?? Id die on the spot

I’m still holding out hope that the episode will give me enough crumbs to at least be able to write this better, but regardless of what happens in the episode,,, the chances of me eventually writing fanfiction exploring this are SO HIGH, I’ve been thinking about this for ages

In conclusion:

—no matter what happens in lies, its going to destroy me

—please let them be in a secret relationship it makes so much sense for their characters and for the drama and aaaaAAAAA

—also please give me the parallels to lukanette where their issues are exactly the opposite and it still falls apart

Thank you for your time, I’ll be excitedly vibrating at the speed of sound for the next two days until we get answers!! Depending on how the episode goes, I’ll either be writing so much adrimi fluff to recover,, so much adrimi angst to vent,, or I’ll be staring at the ceiling screaming for a few days as I post nothing but keysmashes and try to sort through my emotions :)

ok ok i know kubo sucks but hear me out. POST-[whatever arc ended the series it also largely sucked but i did read it. the quincy king situation]

this is a shipping headcanon post be ye warned

ichigo and orihime are married. they live w, and are simultaneously dating, ishida and chad. rukia and renji are married. they both hook up w the karakura ot4 but lets be realistic theyre dead and stuff so we’re talking weekend visits (rukia more often tbh)

NON-DEBATABLE: rukia and orihime obviously have a Thing thing. theyre in lesbians. rukia and ichigo are 100% soulmates, i think even people who dont Ship it recognize they love each other.

renji/ichigo goes without saying too i feel, the dick-measuring bro-yness does not stop from getting higher. im talking hooting and shoving each other up to and during buttsecks. when rukia is involved there’s a higher chance of serious vibes and tender momence but she does also laugh and goad them while they’re wrestling naked so you never know. shes been known to instigate mood-breaking silliness when shes nervous also

ishida/ichigo... same as w rengy honestly, the sexy rivalry is there. quite a bit closer n more tender w these two though the path 2 emotional honesty is paved with mutual avoidance lmao. the way they trust each other without understanding each other means a lot to me shut up.

i think ishida n orihime start dating each other before either of them confesses to ichigo lol, they bond over being into him and form a pact to get ichigo to notice At Least one of them. ichigo meanwhile doesnt even notice theyre dating much less trying to seduce him. ishidas making her cute dresses n shit hyping her up and martyrfully eating his heart out with gay yearning lmfao while orihime is like contriving situations for ichigo to hang out w them and be nice to ishida (which never work). i feel like ichigo kinda gets railroaded into going on a date w orihime which is like cool but confusing bc he... feels the same abt her as he honestly does abt ishida n chad so like?? maybe he doesnt Like Like her Like That? which, uh oh? and it takes orihime kinda spilling the beans abt the whole situation for him to be like oh. hell yeah then. can chad come too

chad and ichigo.... these guys were each other’s first love and you cannot change my mind lol. chad ichigo original otp chad ichigo for lyfe etc. while tatsuki was teaching orihime how to kiss these two were already emotionally bonded for life. you know ichigo saw him in a tank top for the first time and discovered his own dick the same night.

i think ishida has a big gay crush on chad thats not rly reciprocated, chad is  bemused by him although overall thinks hes pretty alright. that post thats like >i fell in front of a 6′2″ guy >he helps me off the ground >”silly little boy you should be more careful” >instant throbbing boner  yeah thats ishida

i do think renji and orihime have Done Stuff in the context of rukia and ichigo foursome, but theres not like chemistry there imo they just end up Horny and sitting next to each other like so do we kiss now too or? ishida similarly doesnt have Vibes with rukia but finds renji annoyingly hot for how otherwise insufferable he is. especially funny when his whole thing is like ‘im an elegant and strategic problem-solver (not true) unlike you who is a monkey-brained idiot (more true)’ and they both end up in the same stupid situations together. chad meanwhile doesnt even participate in the rukia/renji group secks events, hes like ‘yeah im gonna go to the gym or something for a few hrs text me when i can come home’ hahaha

🥺anon!

i’m glad you finally started the inazuma archon quest! i’m respectfully looking at all your thoma reblogs and i approve of the thoma-fication of your blog. sometimes i just wanna choke childe but i know thoma would treat me well (but i wouldn’t be opposed to a childe x reader x thoma fic)

and i’m so scared of the prospect of a ruin guard x reader fic bc i do NOT want to simp for a ruin guard akdkgkhm but i trust you sonde :’) my heart is in your hands when it comes to fics

yess thoma is <3333 i actually starting a little drabble for him yesterday (AU where reader is part of the kamisato clan, middle child between ayato and ayaka) and he has to ~serve~ bc i can't resist he's just too cute!!!!

but okokokok ruin guard x reader au. (below the cut bc it got long hehe)

it's an au where the First Field Tiller (FFT) is the main character and it turns out that the reason the FFT is more powerful than all the other ruin guards was bc it was SO powerful that it had acquired consciousness. or at least something that bordered on sentience. (khaenri'ah was intimidated by the fact that they'd created a machine that could think for itself, and that's the reason why none of the other field tillers that followed were so weak in comparison.) but yada yada this field tiller manages to escape khaenri'ah and it goes to mond in search of some kind of meaning for its miserable, dreadful life where it can only serve as a weapon of war.

FFT goes as far from khaenri'ah as it can and ends up in Old Mondstadt where it finds peace in the emptiness of the location. FFT doesn't want to hurt people, but it can't help the way it was programmed to attack anyone who draws near, so for years, FFT shoots warning missiles at anyone who wanders close to keep itself as closed off from the rest of the world as possible bc a war machine so powerful as itself doesnt deserve happiness, doesnt deserve to be in a place where its instincts might one day bomb everyone it loves, doesnt deserve to have a life like the humans that share its level of conscious thought.

cue the entrance of Reader: a confident and battle-hungry adrenaline junkie (lmao probably an ancestor of childe's) who takes the stories of The Tyrant's Final Fury as a challenge: and so Reader ventures into the domain of Old Mondstadt in an attempt to discover the Tyrant and defeat it. only, there's...a ruin guard? and it keeps backing away whenever Reader gets close? and when reader draws their sword, the ruin guard lets out the most agonized wail as its eye glows brighter—almost as if...as if it's resisting it's programmed fight responses?

Reader is too confused to fight, and through much trial and error, Reader discovers that this FFT has consciousness. enough to be able to interact almost like a human. soon, Reader finds that FFT can communicate by writing on the ground—and that FFT can actually hear and understand what Reader is saying.

it's a difficult affair, given that FFT's eye glows brighter and it's auto-programmed offenses threaten to trigger whenever Reader gets too close, but Reader gradually learns of the ruin guard's story, and the two grow close. it can't truly be considered love because love is such a human construct and this machine is anything but, yet...Reader finds solace in FFT's presence. it's hard when Reader has to constantly stay away to avoid triggering FFT's fight responses, but Reader feels calm in FFT's presence. the constant desire to kiil, the constant search for adrenaline, the eternal quest for something to hold Reader's attention...all of that goes away in FFT's presence.

as time wears on, Reader begins to trust FFT more and more.

unfortunately, FFT doesn't trust itself.

Reader wants FFT to begin weaning itself into public life, wants to slowly train the programmed fight-or-self-destruct response out of FFT. but FFT says no. FFT doesn't think that it's possible to overcome its base programming, doesn't think that it's possible for it to ever have a life where it can live among humans.

Reader disagrees.

trying to prove that FFT is stronger than it thinks it is, Reader steps closer to FFT, trying to show that look! you're not attacking me! you're strong enough to control your instincts! only...it doesn't go as planned.

the moment Reader steps too close to FFT, the ruin guard's eye glows a bright orange as it turns to life. in that instant, all the decades of humanity that had slowly begun to set in—the decades where FFT experienced loneliness, isolation, fear, and ultimately, love, at Reader's hand—is undone. only programming remains, and FFT was programmed to kill.

Reader is strong, however.

FFT's first blow is surprising, but Reader is a soldier of hundreds of battles, someone who seeks out bloodshed because they know they have the ability to effortlessly spill it. with strength, power, and skill that only Reader can possess, they effortlessly disarm the ruin guard, destroying its so that it can't move forward anymore.

with FFT's feet crushed, it has no way of stepping closer to attack. Reader takes that as an opportunity to try reasoning with the machine, praying that the sound of their voice will wake FFT up from this programmed nightmare, praying that the time they've already spent together won't have been wasted.

what Reader doesn't anticipate is the depth of detail with which khaenri'ah created FFT.

Reader's eyes are closed when the missiles hit, half-way through an earnest soliloquy about how they've finally gotten the chance to experience love because of FFT, how they know that FFT's own love will be strong enough to overpower its programming.

never in their wildest dreams could Reader have anticipated how FFT's back opened up, sprouting eight flaming missiles that all aimed for Reader's head.

the one mercy of Reader's death is that they have no time to anticipate it: one second, they're pouring their heart out to their lover, and the next, their skull is crushed to bits, bleeding out on the cement floor.

only with the threat vanquished does FFT's programmed defenses slowly begin to wane. a single glance at Reader's limp body is enough to understand what has happened.

the wail that leaves FFT's body is devastating. it can be heard across teyvat, and it's the sound that ultimately rouses stormterror, something that shakes the very world to its core.

all FFT wants is to crawl over to Reader and cradle their dead body in its arms as a final tribute to the love they once shared, but FFT's legs have been destroyed. it can only sit on the ground numbly, craning its head in the direction of its dead lover, forced to watch for the rest of eternity as Reader's body is picked apart by ravens and cranes, insects and lizards, worms and plants.

vaguely, FFT thinks that it deserves this punishment: khaenri'ah may have been its creator, but it was the one that chose to keep on living. it chose to survive in a world of the living when it could only ever bring death. programmed or not, it chose to do this to you.

it's the reason why when, centuries later, a traveler with strange clothes and a blonde man that FFT vaguely recognizes attempt to remove FFT's eye, its core, its central processing unit, the only thing keeping it alive—it lets them.

and when the quiet machine whirr that's followed FFT its entire life finally begins to fade, all it can think about is how, maybe, it'll get to see your face one more time after this.

some thoughts about Danny and sams relationship cuz im trying to make sense on why i still like them together after all these years lol

I think Is really fucking cute how Danny restrains himself every time Sam pulls back from showing affection

He never questions her, never pressures her into giving more than what she does

Sam would push him to the bushes and kiss him to create a "distraction"

Danny is totally infatuated by the kiss

She quickly pedals back and tells him It wasnt a real kiss

Danny snaps out of it real quick and tells her that he didnt thought it was a real kiss and Is revealed un another episode that Is him who comes up with the idea of calling It a Fake out make out pressumably to make her feel better

After the spell of ember, Sam runs to hug him and he reciprocates the hug but again Sam quickly pulls back and Danny follows her doing a mirror reaction

Sam says that some of the spell must still present in her

Tucker exposes her saying she never was under such spell and Sam elbows him

Danny doesnt say anything

Whenever someone asumes she's his girlfriend, Danny Is quick to correct them that Is not quite true, with whoever It is, the ghosts, their enemies, the kids at school, his parents

The only time he sorta pressures her to saying something is when ghost king scapes and he has to use the Fenton armor, and doesnt know if hes going to come back and even then he doesnt explicitly outs her feelings, he just says "but if there's anything you want to tell me, nows the time" and that's it

Okay there's that time with trevor, its not a justification but Valerie had just rejected him, its normal he was a little apreensive also the instant Sam calls him out he steps back and thinks "wait wtf am i doing?" And leaves her alone

And after Sam suffers from falling out of love with trevor Danny Is there to reassure her that she Is and i quote "smart, fun, pretty" and to apologize for following them and just generaly being a jerk

Hes always complementing her "i always thought you ruled Sam"

"You should listen to some of those ideas and i should too" (when she is in that kingdom where Time Is stopped)

"That Is the coolest girl ive ever met" when Sam wishes she had never met him

AND i know we don't talk about phantom planet and almost everything about It is wrong BUT and before you kill me

THAT KISS was the ONLY thing they got right about them, okay? I don't care about the meaningless plot i don't care about tucker being the fucking governor

THAT KISS, the hesitation, the sweet kiss on dannys cheek the way Danny realizes "oh so she does love me" and proceeds to kiss her swooping His hand under Sams hair to cup her face , Is just 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌perfect

Like he waits until hes absolutely fuckin sure that she likes him in order to Advance, not really because hes not sure what he feels about her but because hes not sure what SHE feels towards him

And is not really that he does not notice all of Sams signs that she has a crush on him, and this Is another thing that I love about this ship, because we as the audience are SURE that Sam Is super infantuated with Danny, she looks longingly at him when hes flying as the sun hits Danny just right 👌 and his hair flows heroically with the wind lmao, she dreams about him being happy and she being her girlfriend, she invites him to dance, she acts jealous everytime someone tries to get closer to Danny

She's head over heels for him, and Danny Is shown to notice all this, when he catched Sam looking at him when they were flying he just smiles and doesnt say anything, Danny sees Sam's dream and when asked what was she dreaming he covers her and says he doesnt remember, all those are little acts of respect, of understanding that he knows how she feels but he knows she doesnt feel comfortable with giving too much yet

Like ...

Is always more obvious how Sam takes care of Danny and tucker, she's a wonderful friend and DOES everything in her power to help them, to help Danny and Danny of course tries to take care of everyone as a hero

But the way he takes care of Sam and roots for her and respects her space and choices

That Is just 👌 👌👌👌👌✨💕💕💞

They just... They just be taking care of eachother man, and that kills me

[mikeshanlon]

what do you think are the other ggreboot characters zodiacs?

okay so just gonna like ramble about some placements i think they might have and disclaimer i am no expert or necessarily Fixed in these possible placements. also every sign has good and bad and manifests itself in diff ways so if u dont love the placements i chose sorry babes bladididahhh okay continuing

julien: def think she is a gemini, i think she def gives mutable/gemini sign vibes both in how sometimes she will be a lot more calculated and "bitchy" and then be a lot softer (not saying geminis are two faced but multifaceted), and in how she wants to grow over the course of the season and become more authentic. especially with how geminis are curious and want to see how the world works and question things, the more she explore the more she understands herself. geminis are also super fun and magnetic which i think fits her vibe. plus i think she is definitely a good communicator, even tho i think her speech in 1.04 was.... something... she was able to pull it out on the spot and be well spoken and convince the party goers, so very good with her communication imo. leo rising, bc u kno Magnetic Grand Influencer. always aware of how shes percieved. can be rash, but like, she's fun, shes got a warm heart.

zoya: zoya is canonically a libra (october 22). i think that fits in a lot of aspects, she definitely embodies the traits of libra that are very concerned with justice, and i do think she is diplomatic/logical (her knowing whats important to her and not as caught up in the world of reputation as the others), tho less of a... pushover/peacekeeper as aki is. also her love of the arts in reading/plays. def think she probably has aquarius placements given again the sense of justice but also her being more outspoken/rebellious/unpredictable... aqua mars maybe? could be a cancer moon, for the idea of nostalgia/past, wanting home and security, hating superficiality.

aki: obviously i have not shut up abt him being a libra sun. i just know it in my bones its the introverted libra blueprint the peacekeeping the innocent nature the love of art (film in his case) his magnetic lover pretty boy energy, a pretty defined Aesthetic. diplomatic, always looking at things through logic. libra mercury as well for similar reasons, diplomatic and reserved with his words, objective, tries to make everyone happy even at his own expense (hello forgiving/apologizing to audrey and max for all the shit they did lmao). i think he has a pisces moon because i do think he's sensitive and cares deeply and quite dreamy in his own head but not going to be maybe as reactive as a cancer/scorpio moon. they are a lil weird they can kind of be a pushover/doormat, its the vibes. aquarius rising bc he does have the Mysterious Aloof vibes esp if you don't know him, a loner, a bit weird, abstract outlook, nervous. mayhappssss pisces mars bc its again like p romantic and sensitive but they can be kinda hard to pin down and less agressive but i havent Nailed down a venus/mars yet.

audrey: taurus sun i think. i love the idea that two of the sides of their love triangle are represented by venus and i think it fits with them-- both find love very important and have love for each other, but it doesnt really work romantically bc of their diff styles (like personally as a libra loveee them as friends idk if i could really be in a relationship tho). taurus is fixed and resistant to change bc its what they know, ie, her not wanting to move at all. interesting in aesthetics, being classy, etc. wont hold back her judgement (also guessing she has some fire in her bc of how much she lashes out. mayhaps aries or leo). loyal, at least to julien and the idea of friendship and partnership lmao. wants a loyal partner who stays by her side no matter what. also her love of reading and cooking and domesticity is very taurean. this may be bc of her big eyes but i feel like she has a water rising, i think scorpio rising fits best, she can be quite intimidating, she wants privacy, determined, she wants a reliable partner again. can be impatient.

max: leo sun-- im sorry maybe too obvious LMAO but he's just like very charming, confident, wants fun, dramatic af, loves an indulgent moment, wants people to want him. but also i think very warm and nice to his friends when they need it, like going out with julien, or in softer moments like helping audrey with her mom and cooking breakfast for her and aki. leos are also quite funny which i think max is. he's mischevious, he wants vibrance. i also think leo/taurus and leo/libra compatibility make sense for the love triangle lmao. aries moon, likes confrontation, likes drama, want what they want (and often, they have lots of diff crushes) and will go after it. impulsive. want instant gratifcation, to live life charging ahead and in the moment. don't understand skirting around emotions. i think gemini or sag in mars, because of the freedom/independent aspects, fun, and also the sexuality of the mars signs.

monet: capricorn sun and mercury, she knows what she wants, she wants success and power, and shes going to figure out the most effecient way to get there, no matter what. shes going to protect what she cares about most, shes not gonna deal with the bullshit, a bit of a hater of everything. wealth, oppulence. DEFINITELY has a strong scorpio placement / mars energy--probably scorpio mars as at least one placement: ready for war, secretive, observant, calculating. i think maybe aries rising, direct action, competitive, want to lead, blunt and brusque, quick to drop if its not working, with scorpio and cap placements that drive and aggression to be on top increases.

luna: i think she's a virgo sun, she's calculating/discerning, shes a bit judgy, she has rules and order and you're going to fucking follow them! she's observant, able to figure out things like monet's betrayal. def think shes a libra rising, she is so etheral and magnetic, social. while i dont think her libra manifests in a super diplomat way like zoya or aki, i do think she does try to compromise and find balance in certain areas, like going along with the zoya and julien sister narrative and making it work even though she didnt rlly want to. also the style aspect of her character is v libra rising. leo mercury, she's dramatic and fun and has an ego and some u kno.. scathing shit to say lmao.

obie: okay im sorry he is such a fucking toxic pisces male. projecting fantasies onto ppl and then getting upset when they dont fulfill that? yup! mutable as fuck, never really taking a stand in activism, family, love. wanting to be a martyr. staying in situations he doesnt think will work out bc he wants them to--like waiting until he had an excuse to leave julien, or thinking that maybe things werent good with zoya but holding on. hates when ppl critique him. maybe venus in libra bc very idealistic about what he wants in a relationship and wants things done a certain way or else hes like wtf. idc abt his other placements lmfao

---Probably changes name and outfit though, but is a permanent holder

--King Monkey and Pegas are semi permanent holders (Kim and Max respectfully) 

---Only not permanent because they want to avoid suspension but are full members of the team

---Also work as civilians, helps with the cover

--Alix also is a part of the team but only as a civilian 

---They have considered giving her the Fox 

----She helps answer questions and acts as a ground base for the hero’s as she is the main “civilian” the government goes to if they need the team

--They are a really tight team and trust each other fully

--The turtle and fox get used but sparingly 

---Ivan might be turtle sometimes 

---Nino later might be a good choice too, I’m not fully sure yet

----Fox has been used by Alix and maybe Juleka too but unsure about Juleka right now

--All holders have slight effects from their miraculous 

---Mari and Adrein have the most as they’ve had theirs the longest 

---Mari has good luck and is able to embed some of that luck into what she makes

----She also doesn’t do well in the cold

----Things tend to grow more around her, especially flowers, almost like they are growing toward her

---Adrien has bad luck (thanks to Mari’s gifts this isn't really bad though) and if not careful can break anything

----Likes to take naps in the sun and is very protective 

----Cats like to gravitate to him

---Kagami has lots of extra body heat

---Luka can sometimes predict what is going to happen, can predict a lot of normal everyday things

---Cholé can easily knock people out now, she knows all the right places to hit to incapacitate someone

---Max (weaker cause hasn’t had as long) knows the fastest way to get places and shortcuts basically anywhere

---Kim (weaker cause hasn’t had as long) is able to freerun and parkour with little training 

----Can also sense when some chaos is about to happen, however it isn’t to sting yet but does get stronger the longer he has his miraculous 

---Alix (has the weakest, but still strong) has the ability to tear apart half truths and lies, she gets this from the fox but also works on it herself after vowing to not let Lila fool anyone she cares about again

-After Hawk Moth is defeated Adrien moves in with the group

--Mostly stays with Mari and Kagami

---Considering moving with Mari when she leaves Pairs

-Mari becomes the Guardian before Hawk Moth is defeated 

--It is about when she makes a real team, Fu gives her the knowledge and training she needs

--He’s been doing it indirecting since the beginning (well a few months in) but after she takes initiative with making the team he is more direct

--He waited to make sure she as ready and she is

-Mari plans to move to Gotham to properly meet her soulmate after school

--This is to move the Miraculous and to further her career 

--This is one of the biggest motivators to contact the League to get help defeating Hawk Moth

--The team is more than onboard with going with her and follow where she goes 

---They are basically family, and family supports family

--This move would also help them with Uni and furthering their potential careers, so it is a win-win for everyone

--They do want to stay a Superhero team after Hawk Moth but more low-key, the move would also give them a chance to be more open about wanting to do this

---They don’t want to step on toes but want to help if they can

-Soulmates in this au (romantic at least)

--Tim and Mari (duh)

--Adrien and Kon (Conner/Superboy)

--Cholé and Kagami (maybe Luka, unsure but I’m a sucker for poly, I could always make it a Young Justice member, any ideas welcome)

--Kim/Max/Alix (we love poly and these are a good trio)

-Kon-el/Conner and Adrien 

--For the longest time Adrien didn’t think he’d ever be loved/have a soulmate

---Conner wasn’t around yet so that’s why his connection wasn’t there

--Adrien cried the first time he got a mark he cried

---It made him know there was someone else

---Mari stayed with him the whole night holding him and telling him, she knew he would have someone

--Conner rarely responds, the boy doesn’t know French so it’s kinda hard

---Tim notices the language and offers him help, he is also the one to explain what soulmates are to Conner

--Conner feels bad for his “other half”

---Partly due to the whole secret identity thing

----He isn’t great with people

----His other half seems to get hurt a lot and doesn’t want to be another cause of that pain

--Despite never getting much from his soulmate Adrien always leaves messages of encouragement and validation

--He understands how much that can mean to someone

---He starts to leave some in Englsih too, just in case his soulmate only knows Englsih 

----Mari’s idea but he was more than on board for

---He often apologies of injuries he gets 

----Conner doesn’t usually notice the injury but the note afterward

-----part of his alien blood is why he doesn't usually feel

------When he does notice he does worry a lot because if he feels it what must have happened to this other person (is under the impression it is a normal civilian)

--Adrien is so happy to know he is loved by someone else, because as Conner may not show it, he has a feeling his other half cares

---Mari is so happy that her best friend has gotten what he needed to know he was loved she cries with him too

----It happens a year or so after being heros so they are close but don’t quite know each others identities yet, but that happens not long after

--Conner is convinced to go and help when the Justice League goes to Paris

---He goes and stays with Tim most of the time

---Tim is the one who convinced him to go and acts as a translator, as Conner has a grasp of the language he isn't too confident

---He does meet Chat Noir but only briefly; both are more focused on the bigger picture

----Both act like lost puppies with Mari and Tim respectfully; and when they get together this doesn't change too much

----They are a really fluffy couple, Adrein needs physical affection and Conner accepts

-How they meet (Tim and MAri) [finally I know]

--They meet as heros before they meet as civilians

--They meet as heros on a patrol before the final battle with Hawk Moth

---This is where the “HOLY SHIT I JUST MEET RED ROBIN/LADYBUG” moment happens, after they get back from patrol they indemnity write the other

----Mari talks to Diana about all this over breakfast the next day

-----they both know the others identity because Diana told Mari so she would trust her because she knew Mari because of her connection with the Miraculous, instant connection

----Wonder Woman figures out they are soulmates through this (Tim had a mini crisis with her that night)

--She “may or may not” leave hint to Bruce to set something up for them

--The 2 are to focused on the final battle to worry about the potential revelations 

---While fighting they have instant synergy and chemistry that goes unnoticed by them at the time but everyone else notices and takes note

--Bruce decides to “spontaneously” sponsor a trip for a class to go to Gotham, as a senior/graduation reward for a class that has done a lot for their community

---It is also a way to give a break to the poor kids who have been dealing with this for far to long

---The “contest” is announced about a week or so after the final battle

---Wonder Woman tells Mari about it

---Mari then proceeds to write far more than one would have expected, she really wants her class to have something good finally, and even excluding all the hero end stuff they do it is close to being a novel

----She would have won even if wasn’t a set up 

---Wonder Woman tells Bruce which class to choose and doesn’t question it as he trusts her judgment, he also doesn’t question why she is so insistent but completely agrees with her choice

----Diana is the one to tell Mari who instaly is giving her a bone crushing hug which Diana returns in fold

---The whole squad is hyped

----Luka and Kagami pulled some strio “happen” to be going to Gotham themselves

----This is also seen as a great opportunity for them to scout places for them to consider moving after school is done

--They meet at Wayne Enterprise building

---Dick is leading the tour

----Diana may or may not have given him some hints that Tim’s soulmate is in the group

--Lila’s empire is destroyed that week, she tried to lie about the Waynes to the Waynes 

---Tries to say she is dating Damiain who is way younger than her and knows nothing

---Conner is staying with Tim because his soulmate said something about Gotham and figured spending time with Tim isn’t bad either

--Identity get revealed on purpose during the trip (probably near the end) 

--When Mari sees the boys she is confused but happy to see her new friends again so soon

--Diana is a good support for Mari and a “wing woman” of sorts 

--Jason is so happy to she his new “sister” when he crashes the tour to mess with Dick

--Tim is passed out in his office when they pass

---Mari writes a note to her soulmate about how funny it is, this makes Conner look up as he is watching Tim and sees the note appear in his arm

---Mari doesn’t notice but Dick and Jason do

---This leads to the 3 trying to get them to talk

---Adrien catches on and instantly wants to help his bestie meet her boy

----Adrien then tells his soulmate about it later because he wants to and Conner sits straight up and has a huge revelation

-----The boys along with Diana and Mari’s squad set them up and they have a good time and it is really cute

truten hcs 1/?

trunks catches videls bouquet with his face at her and gohans wedding. (she sort of accidentally threw them at him on purpose) goten laughs and picks them up for him

trunks was the first to fall in love. hed liked goten since he was 8 but it was just a crush he didnt actually consciously recognize. he first realizes hes in love with goten after goten goes on his first date at thirteen and comes home broken-hearted. 

he comes out as bi to his grandma paunchy first. and she laughs and just says “oh you really do take after your mother.”

he comes out to his mother next and she tells him she figured and that it was fine. she still loved him there was no need to worry about rejection over something like sexuality in this family

he comes out to his father last. hes reassured his father won be mad at him at this point. but that fear of dissapointment hes always carried when it comes to his father persists. vegeta takes is surprisingly well

“its none of my business the nature of your attraction.” and they continue training together. after theyre done and taking a breather, vegeta pats his back and says in his gruff voice “love is what makes a person strong. loving another is the most powerful thing anyone can do. much more powerful than super saiyan 3. im proud of you.” he wont look at trunks but he can see his fathers a little red in the face, eyes misty. he doesnt try to make fun of his father for it.

just hugs him as tight as he can and vegeta makes a big stink about it grumbling at first but letting it happen. he rests an arm around his sons shoulders and they just sit like that together for a minute. 

its just like the first time his father hugged him. but different. because this time he really knows his father loves him

vegetas more than a little miffed about trunks being in love with “kakarots spawn” and insists goten “seduced my son”. he gets over it soon enough and becomes on of his sons biggest supporters only rivaled by gohan and paunchy. goku... gokus really up there too tbh

gotens really scared to come out to his mother but chichis really understanding and accepting. “i want you to be happy son. i married an alien and had two children with him. you being in love with a man is small potatoes. love is love.” much like vegeta shes kind of disappointed in his taste in men but gets over it quickly. shes known trunks since he was a baby. life goes on. she gets trunks and goten to join that years couples holiday picture 

goten works at a zoo in his teens but later becomes a nurse. if the zoo ever calls him for help hes on it though no questions asked. he loves feeding the baby raptors

also worked at a wcdonalds... can no longer eat food from wcdonalds

their first kiss is in trunks’ room. when theyre 16. theyre listening to a daft punk album while goten vents his dating woes to trunks. “she told me i kiss like a drunk walrus. its not my fault it was my first kiss” trunks asks if hed like some practice, palms sweating. 

trunks leans in, heart racing and goten doesnt pull away. instant crush plays in the background. gotens date was right: he does kiss like a drunk walrus.

“have you kissed other boys before?” goten asks when they separate, cheeks red. trunks wipes his mouth with his wrist.

“have i kissed boys before? youre kidding right? im irresistible, and dont you forget it son goten” he strikes a silly pose and all the tension evaporates in the room.

they eat dinner with trunks’ family that evening and they try not to think about the kiss. trunks does pretty well on that department until he gets back to his room after goten leaves and just holds a pillow to his face screaming. 

the two fake practices afterwards are really anything but. goten finally admits the third time that he wished they did it more often.

trunks asks him out after like a week of internal and external debate (vegeta keeps telling him to get to it). he ends up blurting it out when theyre playing video games one afternoon

they literally get married the day after goten graduates. goten argues he should get two cakes instead of one. chichi doesnt budge

theyre completely functional apart but hate being separated for long. theyre each others best friend! just being in the same room togethers bliss.

when they argue... boy. trunks yells and then clams up and gets really quiet. goten has a mix of goku and gines temperament so stuff usually... takes awhile to build up for him. 

they make up really quick.

trunks is trans bi and gotens cis bi.  

trunks springs the question on goten randomly one day. (”hey. do you wanna have a baby? with me.”) and goten really really does he wants a family with a kid.

asks trunks to let him think about it (he goes over their finances and checks out how long they could be on paternity leave for their respective jobs)

then they go see shenron. and ask for a baby of their own who takes after both of them. it takes shenron a day to magic up that baby but then theyre literally holding their own child swaddled up in their arms by the time dinners ready.

they name her son korusetto daikon vegeta-briefs (korusetto like corset and daikon like the radish. vegeta gives her that name) yes shes got liek three last names and she owns it

she has black and purple hair because shes literally a fusion of her fathers.

tfw you and your husband have to perform the fusion dance to get your daughter to stop crying for thirty minutes but vegeta can hold her and shell perk up or calm down immediately.

bras 15 when they make the wish and she launches into aunt / big sister mode immediately.

gohans best uncle hands down

they make uub and marron little daikons godparents and theyre both so excited. 

trunks and videl have lunch dates like once a month and just kind of bond. videls the older sister he never had and now that hes older shes not the gross girl dating his best friends brother. shes a cool woman with a wicked sense of humor he can vent about what a hassle it is to date a son with.

they renew their vows ten years after they get married and its mushy. they terrorize the party goers 

theres more but thats just a little bit

Lightning Returns : A

Hoperai game

I saw a few posts before playing the game saying that this is a Hoperai game (and how right you were) !!!

Okay, so I have an idea to write every moment that they have as soon as possible,because I'm starting to forget, so after I play I'll be posting the notes that I have here in my Iphone.

Obs: English is my third language*, please be aware of that when you see a mistake :v

By the way guys, both of them werent supposed to have feelings, a few moments in the game Light admits that she is unable to feel anything and that god probably made that to avoid any future problems/Hope is like this as well, but STILL, they demonstrate care for each other. (Later we talk about Lumina and Bhenivelze)

And another thing that gets me intrigade is how come there is not many post about LR here in the hoperai tag ? This game is amazing !! (like, it does have a few times that you get annoyed, but in general is amazing)

First moment: Okay, this is a simple one, after Lightning crash the Patron's party, she refers to Hope as "Mr Hope Estheim", hell yeah. (This is how she is goint to call him in bed) THIS HAPPENS IN THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES IN THE GAME, I do believe that this happens because she still doesn't fell really connect with him, its been sooo long since they were together in FFXIII, that she might think that Hope may not like her anymore, so she really is formal here.

Second: (Well, after I went to ark and saw a younger hope I was frustated, nevertheless, its possible to interact with Hope, he explains that he will be there to help us in this task and that he is in his younger body but doesnt know why.

Third: The loading screen saying that she sees Adult!Hope as an equal (Hell yeah) and I think this is quite nice, because Lightning would never engage a relationship if she doesnt see that special someone as a person beneth her, she is a woman of huge morals and we see that she belives that men have to be amazing (this is using her approval on Snow as info, where she said she would never giver her blessing if he was someone that didnt deserve)

Fourth: if you get hurt and dont use any potion Hope will say that he's worried.

Fifth: Welllll, this one I simpled loved, when we have to get fireworks for the play and Lightning is forced to say "Meow Meow Choco Chow" to Chocolina and Hope is listening and tease her.

"Something tells me you're not enjoying this as much as I am"

Sixth: ( mental note - I would pay for hear Hope complimenting her looks on that red dress - WTF WATANABE, WHY HAVENT YOU DONE THIS ???? ) but the fact that he was manipulated by Benivelzhe might have been the reason, because if he been himself (100%himself all them at that time, oh boy, he would fall from the ark -- I know that I would)

Note: Okay, so there is a cutscene where we see Hope, Snow and Noel deciding to save the world after the chaos spread, and Hope is an adult here, I wonder that happened --- Btw, I finished the game and Still dont understand clearly what happened to Hope, I know that there is a Dlc in FFXIII-2 that I havent played (it is in this DLC that adult!Hope see Lightning in Vahalla ?)

Seven(THEIR DAUGHTER): this is not a nice one, because after we see Vanille, Hope ask of her to Lightning and she tease him with something like "Someones got a crush" BUT not long after that we get a HUGE moment where Eclair is worried about the plan (where she will play a role in front of a crowd and it might fail) and Hope basically quotes her saying "Its not a question of can or cant" and then she asks if he is going to watch her back (PLEASE NOTE THAT THE GAME DOESNT SHOW HER FACE IN THIS MOMENT, I WONDER WHY ????? WE ALWAYS SEE HER FACE ON THE INTERACTIONS WHY IN THIS ONE WE CANT ??? ITS BECAUSE SHE IS WAITING FOR HIS ANWSER ??? I WAS NOT READY FOR THAT)

And guys, even tho Hope is there to assist the player to finish the game and keeps saying what we have to do (And I find this utterly annoying) they have some incredible casual talk, like, "I dont care if the whole world hates you Light, i'll be by your side"

Lumina cutscene

THAT WAS SUPER GOOD, HOLYYYYY.

Well, in one of the interactions with Lumina where she is trying to convince us that Benivelzhe is manipulating us with a Fake Serah, Lightning starts to belive her and gets really mad at her god saying that she was building a contigence plan and is willing to kill Bhenivelze, until Lumina says that Hope is a fake too...

Lightning reaction... DAMNNN

And then Lumina asks

"Would you be able to kill Hope if you need ?"

Lightning close every glimpse of feeling and answer:

"Do you think im not ?

Lumina is so clever that she reads her in a instant and starts to laugh --- BTW, Lumina is nothing but another part o a whole, she is Lightning aswell, WHY WE HAVE THIS REACTION by her part ?? (hehe)

Lumina says : "Answering a question with another question"

That was so good, after this we can interact with Hope but Light never says anything about him being a fake, but still he says that if she wants to betray god he will follow her no matter what. (Guys, do you understand that he is saying that if she want to go in a suicide fucking mission he will go with her ???? AGAIN)

And then, the last day finally arrives, we are going to Luxerion but before we leave the ark Hope says:

"It really feels like the end now. Soon it will be over now"

Lightning then anwser

"Its been dying for 500 years"

His tone of voice slightly change

"I wasnt talking about the world..."

"Then what?"

He accept that is not the time.

"Nevermind. Time is short. Every minute counts, lets no waste any"

BTW IN THE SAME ARK MOMENT, if you ask about Serah being stuck in the chaos (considering that all souls go to chaos after dying) Hope promises that if he dies, he would find a way to save Serah's soul...

(YOU HAVE TO LOVE A LOT A WOMAN, IF YOURE WILLING TO SAVE HER SISTER'S WHILE BEING DEAD - RIP HOPE)

FangxVanille moment in the cathedral (I know that this is my Hoperai post, but that was lit )

Hope (God Mode) I kind knew that he was going to be used by Bhenivelze as a vessel because I saw a few spoilers, but there is one thing that I dont understand --- WHY THE FUCK NO ONE SAYS ANYTHING WHEN THEY SEE HOPE ?? THEY WERE FRIENDS FOR FUCKING SAKE--- Even when is just Fang in the wildlands, Hope and her NEVER interact, she doesnt it even bother to ask " who are talking to Lightning in the phone?"

And finally the ending, Lightning defeat the evil god of light, and is willing to be the new Etro taking care of the darkness flow, but there is something here, a moment where she sees fake Serah and Lumina, and we discover that God never took her feelings, that was always her, she had shut down her feelings a long time ago to become stronger

Note: In the middle of the game we see that she is willing to die, and if you see the loading screens you see the same info.

And she fuse with Lumina, and after all the things she heard from fake Serah she is scared... Her feelings that she always repressed was back to her and she felt alone, darkness consuming her and there is tears, so many tears until...

"Hope : I can hear you Light "

FINALLY, FINALLY, the one who saves everyone was saved, he sacrificed his chance to be born in the new world with his parent, to save the woman that he lovessssss

I dont know what to say, this is just a bunch of notes of me bamblimg some things, but im so glad that she was saved, that she didnt feel scared, that he came back for her.

There is that quote from FFXIII where Vanille talk about Eclair.

"When the fear sank in, it tore us apart. Lightning was hurting but none of us could see it"

This is different now, he can see it, he knows that she was scared, that she deservs to be saved and loved, that she needs someone to watch her back !!!!

Hoperai is kind of Canon and I loved thst ending, most amazing CGI ever.

Side quests: I know that with the timer this game gets a little trick with the side quest, but there is some random moments here.

But these called my attention

Olga, the singer

I've encountered a quest about a woman looking for her lover, and we learn that she is a singer but cant sing without the lyrics of the man she loves , after we find him we complete the quest, there will be a song (requested by Lumina) and I saw Hoperai all over it, okay, Light says "Serah loved this song" but the lyrics were all about Hope and Light.

Btw, I can totally see mama Farron singing this to their daughters, and Lumina kind is Lightning, so she knows that this is her favorite song aswell.

The one that we have to find the special flower for the chocoboo

Ha, who would say that we would be hearing that Lightning sucks at cooking ? Well, she admits that the only thing she knows how to cook is Beheamoth steak in a campfire

And we get to hear she trying to talk to her chocoboo saying "Kweh Kweh" such lovely moment and Hope was hearing everything

Gordon Gourmet

Well, this quest has and amazing ending, like super wow, after we taste the the gourmet recipe Lightning is amazed, she says that is probably the best thing she ever ate, so, Hope got curious and they start a conversation: (my memory is not great, but it goes like this)

Hope: That food is that good ?

Lightning: Do you want me to pack some for you?(such a wonderful waifu)

Hope: No thanks, but sometime I want to taste something made by you

Lightning: Well, Im not the best chef... I never spent much time in the kitchen, but if you like, I do a Behemoth steak by the campfire that is really good.

(This is the SECOND TIME in the game that she says that she can cook Behemoth) 😂

Chocoboo clothes

After a lot of "Chow chow choco chow" we win a nice outfit from the Chocoboo girl, Hope got a little bit excited and says that she must look really good on it, they have a nice conversation after.

Adornments

Hope jokes that Light should wear a lot of endornemts, to attrack more people to save.

Here we see that Light is pretty humble when people say that she is beautiful, she doesnt see herself as the perfect looking woman that she is.

Sazhs quest / Kid who always steals shit from us

I like this moment for a reason, thoose quests make Hope and/or Light relate to their situation, I will make a super post about this later and this is pretty important.

After Sazhs quest, in Ark Hope stops Lightning and revels a little bit about his situation with his father and how he was raised, Lightning stands quiet and just listen.

After we see a kid (the little shit who steals from us) and deliver the letter from his father, Lightning says how hard was for her to lose both of her parents, Hope just listen.

Soooo, this is it, I loved the game (hope you loved too), I still feel that Watanabe was not brave enough, he could made Hope an a adult in the thirdy game and put some scenes where he save her with a KISS (FRENCH PLEASE) but he made Tracer of memories to make more clear that Hope really have feelings for her and that she is going after him in the new world.

Note : im making a super post about them and I just want to thank this amazing tag/fandom, I know that this game is old and not so many are here now, but you all left soo many good things here and im really thankful.
