#i hate it here my coding shit is not going super well either lmfao i’m so tired 😭

[moviegroovies]

so i know i’m breaking like, this unspoken vow of silence re: the movie by making this post but this IS a movie blog and i did watch the last airbender. and can i just say. holy fucking shit.

y’all know i like a lot of bad movies. knowing that, take me seriously when i say: this is a BAD movie. and not in a good way. i went into it with no expectations except morbid curiosity and i was STILL let down. i wanted to hate watch it, and yeah, i hated watching it, but it wasn’t even fun to hate. i just hated it. 

don’t watch the last airbender.

if you’re like me and you just wanted to know exactly how bad it was, please benefit from my mistakes. read my fun funky rant and then never think of that movie again. put it out of your mind. rewatch boiling rock. love yourself.

anyway.

pretty much the one and only thing i knew about why it was bad going in was that it was whitewashed; that’s like the only thing anyone ever mentions in conjecture with this movie, when they mention it at all. knowing this, going in knowing full well that the casting department did crimes against humanity, i was still shocked and disturbed at the sight of white katara and white sokka. literally... that casting choice was a hate crime. look them up (or check out my last post) if you need to see it for yourself... it’s bad y’all. somehow i had braced myself for white aang, but before i saw it with my own two eyes i couldn’t believe that they would actually whitewash katara and sokka, And Yet. the really stupid thing is that it’s not even “””justified””” IN UNIVERSE; most of the members of the southern water tribe are played by asian actors, meaning that they didn’t even pull a pan and make the WHOLE southern water tribe white, they just made sokka and katara mysteriously “special” in a spectacularly poor judgement call.

actually, that’s another thing. outside the northern water tribe (which is also mostly white... i’m wondering if sokka and katara are white because gran gran--a white woman in the movie--is from the north? anyway it’s a moot point either way because none of them should be white, there are NO WHITE CHARACTERS IN THE SHOW AVATAR, jesus FUCKING christ), most of the extras and background characters are played by actors of color, particularly asian actors, which would be accurate to the show’s canon. maybe m night shyamalan or someone else involved in the making of this shitshow of a movie thought that this would somehow absolve the whitewashing of the main characters, but in reality i’d argue that it makes it even worse; by having characters mostly played by people of color continuously being saved by three little white bitches, the movie goes HARD on the white savior trope, and also just generally uses these actual, living people as exploitative, orientalist set dressing for this 1 hour and 43 minutes of special hell.

with one notable exception: prince zuko is played by an actor of color--specifially, dev patel. (who is himself miscast, considering how zuko and the fire nation are japanese-coded, but the second they opened on that veruca salt looking ass bitch calling herself katara any hope that the makers of this movie gave any consideration to the racial coding avatar introduced went right out the window.) which adds Another layer of racism to this already inconceivably bad fuckup of a movie; how strange, that the movie’s racebending made all three heroes white, but the primary antagonist (as well as the secondary antagonist, zhao, and the mostly-off-screen-but-still-present ozai) is a man of color. what an odd coincidence. hmmmm.

i hate this movie. i do want to note, though, that dev patel’s inclusion was the only thing that actually got me through the whole thing; i have no idea why he was in this film (he’s FAR too talented for the content he was given and no one else in the entire cast went even one sixteenth as hard as he did) but he was its one saving grace. still, though, even he couldn’t save it. he was so cute and he did his damn best with probably the worst script in the history of film... but he was still in THIS film. since the release of this movie, patel has spoken out against his role in it and the world of hollywood blockbusters in general, and to that i say... good for him. 

i was going for zuko though. this time it was like YES baby CAPTURE that avatar. full stop.

so yes, it was horribly miscast, whitewashed to hell and back, and went with a racist white hero/villains of color cast as a backdrop. all of these things, in themselves, are enough to completely condemn the movie, and my work here might as well be done... except to end it there would be to leave one million other glaring flaws unexamined. and i refuse to let any rock be unturned.

because, like, it’s NOT just bad because of the whitewashing. the whitewashing and the other racist elements are huge PARTS of why this is a bad movie, but even if this movie was made with an accurate and un-whitewashed cast, it would STILL be a bad movie, and i need you all to know this. 

starting from the top: they ruined katara and sokka. 

well, they ruined them the second they cast them the way they did. but again, let’s say they cast someone else. let’s say they cast appropriate actors for the rolls, but the level of acting skill and the script they used was the same. even in this case, they would have RUINED katara and sokka. none of the characters in this movie are 100% recognizable (and i’ll keep repeating it: the casting DID NOT HELP), but katara and sokka got hit the hardest and the worst. the things that sokka should have brought to the table (his goofy attitude, his intelligence) were erased, and the “sokka” we were given instead was a jerkass buzzkill who might have occasionally been the butt of a joke, but was never actually intended to be funny in his own right. reflecting on the series, it’s kind of as if we got his characterization from the first episode (before sokka got any development and was, i guess, kind of a jerkass buzzkill) and never strayed from that, which would be bad enough, but i think even episode ONE sokka was more fun and dynamic than White Sokka™. mistakes were made.

but it was even WORSE for katara. katara’s righteous anger was all but erased. SOKKA was the one who broke the avatar out of the ice, and only because they accidentally happened upon him--katara didn’t get to be angry at sokka’s jerkass sexism and unconsciously fuck up an entire iceberg. katara NEVER got to be angry. in fact, most of katara’s moments were taken and distributed between aang and sokka; aang, for instance is the one who inspires the earthbenders to break out of prison. we don’t even see katara train with master pakku, and SHE was the one who actually became a waterbending master when they went to the north pole. in this movie, katara mostly existed to talk about ~hope~ (very ember island players, lmfao) and hug aang when he went into the avatar state. 

by the way, that prison? it’s not the metal platform in the middle of the ocean we got in the show. it’s just... an enclosed village. surrounded by dirt and earth. and the earthbenders never tried to break out until aang came along and told them to? hmmmm.... 

Unfortunate Implications™, but what did you expect. 

other than that, idk. the writing was so fucking bad, y’all. a significant chunk of the plot relies on the “as you know” trope, in which characters have an expository discussion about something everyone present should already be aware of and wouldn’t need to get into. this normally wouldn’t bother me THAT much, if i noticed it at all (exposition is essential, after all, and you only have so much time in a movie, so i guess it makes sense when you’re trying to compress an entire season of a show into one), except like... it’s ridiculous. i couldn’t ignore it, they just hit the hammer so hard. “as you know, this is what the avatar is. as you know, zuko was exiled after fighting an agni kai with his father. as you know...” 

bleh.

after that, i guess all my complaints are a little more pedantic. some smaller things that made the movie unwatchable: the bending motions were super weird and i think sped up? there were perfectly good martial arts moves right there waiting for them, and shyamalan fucked even THAT up in an effort to... what? make it look more “mystical?” bitch i’ll kill you. also, for reasons completely unfathomable to me, some of the names were pronounced oddly despite being said one million times in the show. “aah-ng” “ee-roh” “soh-ka” “ahvatar.” literally... why.

i’ve been thinking “soh-ka” in my head for like two weeks. hideous.

and one last thing, which really DOESN’T matter in comparison to what they did to the human characters, but like... what fucking happened to appa?? why did they do that to him?

don’t watch the last airbender.

[wannaonestars]

soulmate! park jihoon

okay in this au you have the “you see color once you meet your soulmate”

and gOD do you hate this method you have because what the heck you’re a fashion and design major

your whole life you’ve been working with clothes in black and white and shades of gray and you had to bust your ass to get into the top university in seoul for fashion

whatever mythical being it was that gave you this curse basically said a massive fuck you to your hopes and dreams like rip

in middle and high school you would literally people-watch in different areas and different cities to meet your soulmate 

actually you didn’t give a fuck about who your soulmate was you just wanted to see color and work with it to produce high quality works

and end the shitty friend moments when you’re shopping with your pals and they go “hey should i get the blue shirt or the red one”

you: oh i don’t know andrea i think the slightly darker shade of fucking gray looks nicer

andrea: :DD

SO one weekend you’re looking around some stores in this mall and searching for inspiration for your next piece

and everything’s okay and in black and white as usual when suddenly you saw this??? strange shade???????? not in black or white???????

you’re SHOOK and immediately just start darting your eyes everywhere

and finally when your eyes land on a person at the men’s section of the store a burst of saturation and color splashes in front of you

and everything seems to have just...come to LIFE

you’re shaking because everything you see now feels like a new experience....colors that you can’t identify are everywhere you turn and you’re so EXCITED to learn the names of each

you turn to your “soulmate” person with tears ready to fall but suddenly

you: oh my sweet baby jesus

you: can his fashion sense be aNY SH I TT I E R

your jaw is like on the FLOOR and you’re absolutely appalled by the young man looking through some sweatshirts

in your mind you’re furiously criticizing all the choices he’s made and making 

you: why in the world would he pair that shirt with that vest

you: sweetheart that is one hell of a stupid hat you’re staring at

you: is he actually serious about picking that vest

you: what in the world did i ever do to deserve this

you’re fuming at this point and you’re ready to either stomp over and hit him on the head to get his senses back into place or walk away and pretend the meeting never happened

but then he turns around and sees you and when his eyes widen you know there’s no turning back

also you realize he’s really cute so

he walks over all shy with a hand rubbing the back of his neck and a suppressed smile to hide how excited he really is

he says “so....i guess.....we’re soulmates?” with pink steaming cheeks

it takes you like a few seconds to get over how utterly cute that was and the you’re like “yes. and your outfit is a disaster. how dare you.”

and that snaps jihoon out of his bashfulness and he’s just?? excUSE ME???? what the heck do you mean my shirt is suPER cute thank you very much

and you’re like SWEETHEART the design on that thing is utterly atrocious it doesn’t match your face at ALL

and that’s how you and your soulmate got into a huge argument in the middle of the store with ppl staring and taking pics

a few minutes later a middle aged man comes over and taps jihoon’s shoulder and says hey we gotta go you can’t stay here and act like this

jihoon glares at you before he turns around and leaves and you’re just HUFFS i hope i don’t see that kid ever again........

literally two hours later you friends spam your phone with articles about “Wanna One’s Park Jihoon’s Intense Argument With Mysterious Person”

you’re on the verge of crying after realizing you bickered with a massively popular idol and your friends are like “what kind of flowers do you want us to leave at your grave”

you couldn’t focus on anything for a week straight and you’re so scared of stepping outside and having people recognize you so you started wearing masks and sunglasses all the time

it hurt your fashion common sense to wear sunglasses while it was raining but you were too terrified

but good thing was!!! you learned the names of all the colors you could and developed this habit of differentiating even the slightest shade like “that’s not just bLUE that’s cornflower blue with a tint of turquoise on the lower right”

it would only be a matter of time before you start addressing colors by their html code name lmfao

anyways your friends are recognize that your works are becoming a lot better and the color mixing seem smoother and more elegant than before

they ask you if it's because you met your soulmate and beg you to introduce him but you know that they’d lose their shit and fall on their ass laughing if you tell them it’s actually the park jihoon you accused of having disgusting taste

you actually feel really sorry....like however much you hated the way he dressed you shouldn't have criticized him like that man

you start researching him online and you get really interested because damn he has such a nice face

in your head you could conjure so many different combinations of outfits that could work fantastically with him

a few weeks later wanna one is doing a fansign meet and greet thing and jihoon is smiling at every fan and holding their hands and thanking them for their gifts and doing his aegyo

and suddenly.....he sees YOU right in front of him with your deep blue hat and heavy trench coat to avoid being seen

he flinches at first but he can’t be rude so he fakes a smile and just goes...”hi”

and you’re like listen....i’m like seriously sorry for that fiasco back at the store..... and you proceed to apologize several times before he’s like okay!!! i got it you’re sorry

and then you take out the bag you’ve been holding and hand it to him

“here,” you say. “i included a booklet inside.”

and then you just rAN OUT OF THERE like you didn’t even talk to the rest of the members who’re looking at your back like wtf was that????

after their schedules end and they’re at their dorms jihoon takes out the bag you gave him and sees the booklet that read “ok i know i said sorry but please take a look at the clothes i picked out for u” 

he’s so ready to get pissed to see you STILL criticizing his choices but then he sees all the clothes inside and the different outfit combinations drawn and written in the booklet....and he’s sOLD like these are so pretty and cute???????

and he tries everything on and woojin is like whoa and guanlin probably gets gayer

jihoon wears one set for his airport fashion the next day and all his fansites basically explode bc he reached another level of stunning

and his stylists and managers are like????? what the heckie HECK

jihoon’s all smiles and stuff and he’s....really grateful to you.....

like when he met you and found out that you were his soulmate he never felt more crestfallen because the relationship already looked darker than woojin’s past

but now...he just really wants to meet you again and thank you....and maybe talk over a cup of coffee....and just be........a soft couple that he’s always wanted to be in..........

jihoon became the top search on naver for the whole week and became the reason for your smile

it’s the first time that your work has ever been “publicized” in any shape or form and you’re so glad it’s receiving such positive feedback

a while later you get an email during your lunch break 

and the sender is.....CJ E&M entertainment

they somehow figured out that you were the one who gave jihoon his clothes and discovered more of your works from blogs and stuff and now they want to hire you as a stylist for wanna one and the meeting date is....in three hours

you drop your cup of coffee and spRINT out of your university to catch a taxi cab

when you get to the meeting place at the company you realize that frick frack botta bing botta boom your hair’s a mess and you’re sweaty and you haven’t showered in three days due to your schedule and you’re in no way appropriate looking to be hired to be a person who’s in charge of making people look good 

but a staff sees you and is like!! come in!!!!! and you’re like welp it’s do or die

and the company manager and wanna one members are all in a private room waiting for you and the manager starts this speech about how he adores your sense of style and how all the members would be happy to have you as their stylist and how much they’re willing to pay you but the whole time you’re mostly sneaking glances at jihoon

you know how sometimes you would sneak glances at someone who just so happens to look at you at the exact same time and it gets awkward and then both of you would look away really fast

that happens so many time with you and jihoon but...the fourth time that it happens he stares back just three seconds longer than before

he blushes SO hard because of how daring of a move that was and starts fanning himself and beside him jisung is like??? it’s like 20 degrees in here what are you doing

and then the company manager says to you “usually we hire stylists who are married to prevent any kind of special relationship between them and the members...you’ll be an exception to our rule. but the second that we see something suspicious or that you’re violating that rule, then....well, you can guess what might happen.”

and you’re like wow what the heck so i’ll lose my job for getting together with my soulmate

and then the meeting is done and the manager goes to get you your id card and all the paperwork and everyone pre much disperses except for you and jihoon

it’s a bit awkward with both of you staring at the floor....and then you try to break the silence with “this sucks”

and jihoon laughs and just says “it’ll be fine” and he looks up at you and takes a deep breath and goes “give me your number before they come back”

his heart’s racing and he’s almost afraid that you’ll say no

and when you say yes and take out your phone he feels six weights being lifted off his shoulder

and his head jihoon imagines all the possibilities for you two...snuggling besides you as he watches you draw ideas into your notebooks, holding your hand and telling you to pay a bit more attention to him, and smiling when you toss your notebook away, giving in, and leaning closer to him

you have to shake his shoulders to wake him from his daydream lol

you’re like listen bud ur cute i gUESS but we ain’t gonna kiss or anything until i organize your closet

and that’s probably when jihoon realizes this relationship will be anything but the perfect manhwa couple he’s always dreamed of

and suddenly he finds himself swiftly pecking your cheek and going “yeah well i just dID”

you:

you: 

the other 10 members watching from a crack of the door: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH

he saved u in his heart real fast

[gamejumps]

HEY LOOK here’s 43 random headcanon questions answered about turbo that nobody asked for.

1: What does their bedroom look like?

/CRACKS KNUCKLES oh boy here we’ll see how awful i am at interior design and decorating

after doing various google searches of what trailer interiors look like, his bedroom surely isn’t too far off from the main ‘room’ of everything. there’s most likely a small wall that blocks it away from the walkway and a door (for whatever privacy reasons) and most trailer bedrooms aren’t ... big. in fact they usually look a little crammed, which is true in turbo’s case. in the middle there sits a big red race car (with checkered flag blankets and pillows, obviously) with a nightstand on his right hand side. on top of it is a basic lamp (it’s also checkered) and an alarm clock. the nightstand its self holds racing magazines mainly, any scraps turbo had wanted to save for whatever reason and uh ... well, the obvious thing he’d have in there.

there is a window overhead that has a curtain on it, and he usually keeps it closed because hey, that’s the man’s bedroom. the walls are interesting enough: on the wall right of his bed is a big full body mirror that can be pulled aside into a closet where he keeps all of his clothing. on his left wall sits his trophy shelf, where too many trophies sit on top of and medals hang off of. i’m sure there are racing decals plastered around and a plaque that reads, ‘NOVEMBER 02 1982′ for his plug in date.

uhhhhhhh that’s really it, unfortunately. like i said, trailer bedrooms are super small.

2: Do they have any daily rituals?

sort of? get up, shower, eat, get dressed, check on his car, start the day, go to tappers, drive around the track at night, rinse and repeat unless he wants to mix it up. on weekends or at closing time he can sometimes be found tinkering away at his kart or gamejumping.

3: Do they exercise, and if so, what do they do? How often?

NO LOL he doesn’t exercise at all. he doesn’t feel he needs it, but he loves driving laps around turbo time

4: What would they do if they needed to make dinner but the kitchen was busy?

grab something else that doesn’t need prep or get take out. he doesn’t cook and only really uses the microwave, so hot meals are typically box meals and take out food.

5: Cleanliness habits (personal, workspace, etc.)

HOO BOY

personal: turbo’s cleanliness is ... weird? he doesn’t mind getting dirtied up in motor oil and whatnot (he reeks of it, frankly), rolling around in the dirt during a fist fight, etc. so there’s no issue with being dirty, but i don’t think he likes being dirty for too long--like the guy has to shower eventually. i feel like he probably brushes his teeth regularly as well to keep his breath fresh (he hates bad breath so much, and openly shits on ralph for it), but like, don’t get me wrong. this guy is not mr. clean. smells like motor oil, his hair is probably greasy ... he’s a fun time.

workspace: weirdly organized to a degree. it’s probably not spick and span, but he likes to know where everything is so he doesn’t lose things and keep things together. he cleans his car like a crazy, though. there cannot be a speck of dirt on his baby.

6: Eating habits and sample daily menu

EATING HABITS ARE AWFUL. GLUTTON. he hates 3 meals a day + multiple snacks and he indulges pretty heavily in food, rarely leaving food left on his plate. i can’t imagine he’s the pickiest eater but he has certain things he won’t touch with a 10 foot pole. daily menu consists on super salty, fatty junk/concession stand food and candy.

7: Favorite way to waste time and feelings surrounding wasting time

anything racing related is a good time waster (trying to improve his car, cleaning it, etc.), as is drinking around tappers or being in the company of people. however, he’s weirdly selective of wasting his time: if he does things on his own, he doesn’t care, but if someone drags him into something that ‘wastes his time’, he gets antsy and agitated.

8: Favorite indulgence and feelings surrounding indulging

prrrrrobably adrenaline kicks or ego stroking/attention hogging, hard to pick, really. he loves indulging in things. he’s a selfish, hedonistic brat.

9: Makeup?

nah

10: Neuroses? Do they recognize them as such?

NPD and ODD all the way, buddy. he doesn’t recognize that he has them, and if someone would say he has them, he would either blow it off by insisting there’s nothing wrong with him and they're just using shrink labels on him, or he’d see no issue with loving himself and acting the way he does.

11: Intellectual pursuits?

he likes to learn about technology from computers/coding/whatnot to knowledge about technical things with vehicles.

12: Favorite book genre?

my boy does not read lmfao. i feel like the most he reads are sports magazines and stuff, but he’s weirdly cultured on random things and makes the most left field references (ie, ‘IVE BEEN WAITING LONGER THAN IT TAKES TO MAKE PLUTO’S YEARLY TRIP AROUND THE SUN!!’)

13: Sexual Orientation? And, regardless of own orientation, thoughts on sexual orientation in general?

he’s straighter than a ruler. turbo has no problem with sexuality and doesn’t care about what you do, as long as it doesn’t involve him--that’s where he reacts more negatively and lashes out.

14: Physical abnormalities? (Both visible and not, including injuries/disabilities, long-term illnesses, food-intolerances, etc.)

uh, i mean if we’re not counting glowing eyes, grey skin, a green tongue and pointed ears? then the most the guys got is little cuts and nicks on his hands

15: Biggest and smallest short term goal?

within the realm of time i take him from, i can’t see him having short term goals so to speak, because ...

16: Biggest and smallest long term goal?

his big long term goal is to stay on top of the arcade and remain a legend, so that’s all fairly long term. that’s really all the guy wants. fame, fortune, attention.

17: Preferred mode of dress and rituals surrounding dress

he prefers to keep his clothing casual, but he doesn’t exactly look like a slob? he has some kind of style, but he doesn’t really like more preppy or business casual styles--think, ‘that one dude you see in a tee, jeans, converse and sunglasses but it still works.’ no real rituals beyond always taking his helmet if he can--it’s a symbol of status and who he is.

18: Favorite beverage?

cherry coke and eventually vanilla cherry coke!

19: What do they think about before falling asleep at night?

i figure he usually knocks out like a light, but his mind probably swarms with whatever had gone on that day -- usually it always comes back to him praising himself though and telling himself how incredible he is and how he’s such a winner. it usually isn’t to cancel anything out (unless he’s freaking over something, but that’s rare. seriously, the last time he did that ws....2013?) but solely because he can’t help but stroke his ego. it’s a comfort.

20: Childhood illnesses? Any interesting stories behind them?

not really applicable, he didn’t have a childhood to speak. the guy can tell you 20 different ways he broke his nose though, and most involve fist fighting.

21: Given a blank piece of paper, a pencil, and nothing to do, what would happen?

most likely his autograph. he gets a kick out of practicing it and signing it. i can see him making little crude doodles of himself (he has the artistic talent of a wet mop) about how he’s ‘super cool’ and ‘HARDCORE.’

22: How organized are they? How does this organization/disorganization manifest in their everyday life?

he’s in this weird level of organized where it’s not disorganized or thrown about 100%--it mean there’s definitely a little mess after a work day in his trailer--but like, his garage? he loves to know where everything is in there so he isn’t frustrated and looking for something. he’s not really an organizational mess, but he just doesn’t want to go through the hassle of ripping his hair out over trying to find something, you dig? it doesn’t manifest in much else he does, really--he could give less of a damn about anyone else or anywhere outside of his trailer/garage.

23: Is there one subject of study that they excel at? Or do they even care about intellectual pursuits at all?

if you count tech skils as a field of study, then he excels at that for sure. he loves getting his hands dirty with cars and learning all he can with it. it’s a passion for him. otherwise, he’s not too concerned with book smarts unless it can be used to his advantage somehow.

24: How do they see themselves 5 years from today?

still as the king of the arcade, being litwak’s most prized cabinet and prospering even more than he had in the past. ridiculous, i know.

25: Do they have any plans for the future? Any contingency plans if things don’t workout?

not get unplugged. no, really. there’s no real ‘plans’ outside after that, all he wants is for the next few years to be as golden as smooth as theyve always been, and with an ego like his and the luck he’s had, there’s not a doubt or fear in his mind.

26: What is their biggest regret?

so far, the guy has no regrets. he’ll huff and say that regrets are for losers and that if he does something, then he’ll go down with it to the end. if you actually do make him feel it, though, even for a second? then please give yourself a round of an applause, because that takes a lot.

27: Reaction to sudden extrapersonal disaster (eg The house is on fire! What do they do?)

PANIC. BIG PANIC. he startles and tries his best to keep his cool, but would either try and scramble to put out a fire if it’s small enough, or in more case scenarios, grab one or two things and go because he’s not risking his life. he would be pissed if it screwed him over in some way though and would throw such a tantrum.

28: Reaction to sudden intrapersonal disaster (eg close family member suddenly dies)

yikes.

turbo has no close family to speak of, so i’m going to phrase this in the terms of a super close friend (let’s say vanellope for instance) dying. i imagine he wouldn’t take it seriously at first and laugh while insisting whoever informed him is just screwing with him and it’s a shoddy prank, but once everything finally hits like a semi-truck going 200mph, he’d feel confused? upset? angry, but that hurt sort of angry at the person who died because he can’t cope, and would yell about how it was ‘their fault’ and pissily ask why they had to be ‘so stupid’.’ five stages of grief? nah, he goes straight from denial, to anger for awhile, to it bothering him--but he keeps it under wraps. he’s gotten used to people leaving out of nowhere, but death of a close person is hard and he’d rather delete than express any form of ‘weakness’ around people.

but like, this is all super rare and he wouldn’t react this way to 99.9% of people. most of the time he just rolls his eyes and doesn’t see the ‘big deal’, bc truly he doesnt care.

29: Most prized possession?

his helmet, his trophies and his kart.

30: Thoughts on material possessions in general?

i mean, the guy is pretty possessive over his trophies and flaunts them, loves talking about his kart--i’d say he’s a pretty materialistic guy and likes having objects to show off certain things--status, victory, fame, what have you.

31: Concept of home and family?

home, to him, is where things feel comfortable. where he can shine. home isn’t a person, nor is it a place, it’s a feeling to him--TurboTime definitely gives him that feeling for sure.

family is not a concept he really thinks of, honestly. he’d rather not and he thinks it’s schmaltzy. but if an outsider was to define it, it’d be someone who’d stick by him through absolute hell. and to stick by a little bastard like turbo? takes a lot.

32: Thoughts on privacy? (Are they a private person, or are they prone to ‘TMI’?)

MAN.... he has no concept of privacy unless it’s stuff he wants to omit, like certain things he doesn’t want to show (vulnerability). he can definitely overshare though and TMI is no stranger to turbo: i mean, this guy freely talks about sleeping around and answered a question before about his dick size. he doesn’t care. 

33: What makes them feel guilty?

nothing really that i can think of so far. he’s pretty shameless and will take pride in whatever it is he does. but like i said with regrets: you make the guy feel guilty, congrats. hard thing to do though, as he usually pins the blame on someone else and defensively likes to insist he did nothing wrong.

34: Are they more analytical or more emotional in their decision-making?

EMOTIONAL HOO BOY. you’re talking about the biggest brat in gcs with a temper like dynamite: he rarely has time to analyze or think, even with a quick-witted brain. c’mon: this is the guy who gunned it to roadblasters, in his kart, no fucks given because he was jealous and angry and felt neglected. i can’t say that in this stage of life that he’s one who’s very analytical.

35: What recharges them when they’re feeling drained?

a good race, usually, or hanging around people he considers to be ‘fun.’

36: Would you say that they have a superiority-complex? Inferiority-complex? Neither?

SUPERIORITY-COMPLEX ALL THE WAY. turbo refers to himself as a king frequently, i think he called himself a God like, once, and believes everyone is beneath him. no one is on his level, no exceptions, and he’ll laugh and kick you down until you realize it.

37: How misanthropic are they?

ehehhh .. not really? he has an attitude and gets annoyed by most people, but i wouldn’t call the guy a misanthrope.

38: Religion?

doesn’t really believe in it, but he’ll swear to Pong or Programmers every now and again in vain.

39: Superstitions or views on the occult?

not super superstitious and think it’s just a bunch of bullroar--he’s not one to ever take luck into account of anything he does. he thinks occult stuff is creepy and it unnerves him to no end.

40: Do they express their thoughts through words or deeds?

depends on the thoughts! usually it tends to be both because he’s such a blabbermouth that he can’t shut up, but he’s a physical enough person that he’ll do some display to express whatever it is that he’s expressing. in situations where he doesn’t know how to vocally express it, he usually does so through physical actions and gestures.

41: How do they express love?

kissing a mirror and stroking his own damn ego.

on a more serious note, turbo doesn’t really express ‘love.’ he doesn’t love anyone besides himself, after all, but how he acts towards people he tolerates/likes isn’t too bad. there’s nick names, picking on them and teasing them (he thinks it’s ‘funny’), and wanting their attention. he’ll hang around them whenever he wants (he doesn’t cling, per se, but he’ll frequently pester them and go out of his way for it), and if he sees a reason to be jealous/that they’re not paying attention to him and onto someone else, he’ll throw a huffy little fit over it.

now if we were talking about in relationships? he’d be such a jealous lover. a possessive one at that. someone gave you a flirty look? nah, he’ll smash their face in. he’d insist that youre ‘his’ and all that jazz.

42: If this person were to get into a fist fight, what is their fighting style like?

‘if’ hoo boy does turbo get into a LOT of fist fights. his fighting style is messy and vicious: turbo doesn’t cheat in racing, but he’ll do dirty tricks in a fight. he fights with his fists the most and will more often than not tackle whoever he’s pissed at, pin them down, choke them out, smash their face in. he’s not afraid to throw his helmet at you or slam it against your face for an upper hand. there’s no distinct style in what he does, it’s just a lot of grappling, rolling, kicking, punching, elbowing, scratching, choking and anything he can do to get a hit in.

43: Is this person afraid of dying? Why or why not?

you wouldn’t think so, but yes! turbo is a dare devil, that much is certain: he lives for a rush and adrenaline boosters. he’s mouthed off to huge bugs (i recall him even taunting a huge group of them) and gotten into so much shit -- but he absolutely doesn’t want to full on die in a situation where he can’t regenerate. he’s terrified of dying alone, and worst of all, he doesn’t want to die a ‘peaceful’ death. he’d want to go out with the flashiest bang you can imagine, so that nobody ever forgets him.

There was freezing rain here a day or so ago. That was fun . u . (sobs) IF YOU COULD TWEEK MY BLOG OMG ID LOVE THAT. But the theme isn’t originally mine and I’d assume the original owner wouldn’t want the original code changed?

{CONT} IDK I wanted to change my theme for a while now // Something not endless scroll but just boxes for previews? Also I wanted a minimalistic theme based with pastel colours and black and white hehe/ ANYWAY NO NO WORRIES SOMETIMES IM JUST HERE WONDERING IF YOONGI SUED BIGHIT FOR DYING HIS HAIR TOO FREQUENTLY AND NOW HE BALD (LOL) BUT YEAH APPARENTLY THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO HAVE A COMEBACK IN FEBRUARY AND MY WALLET IS UPSET.

LISTEN I LITERALLY CRY EVERYTIME IT MAKES ME SO EMO. I WATCHED NARUTO THE ROAD TO NINJA MOVIE LIKE TWO NIGHTS AGO AND I CRIED LIKE A BABY WATCHING HIM INTERACT WITH HIS PARENTS AND ALL LIKE D’:: highkey still hated on sasuke though

but yeah no it’s okay! i have super late responses as of late…. and it’s really only because i’ve been too emotionally spent by the end of the day or tired or busy or just “not feeling it”

idk, but i hope to get back into being more active. i miss this place. i miss interacting with others, as little of it i seem to be doing right now (guh _ _)

LOL I HAVE SO MANY SEX SCENES ALREADY PREWRITTEN OUT FOR HTE JUNGKOOK FIC AND SO NOW THAT I’VE GOT THE HARDEST PARTS DONE, IT’S JUST DOWN TO FILLING IN THE PLOT AND SUCH. aaaand that’s kinda hard too, but i think i’ll manage. hopefully.

(help)

dude it was rainy and windy and cold today and i had to go outside and the entire time i was walking/running/dying to class i was thinking a) why b) this was a Mistake

ah well in regards to your theme, usually the theme makers are okay with minor changes (sometimes major ones too) as long as you keep the credit and the changes are for personal use (as opposed to commercial use/redistribution, etc). just to be sure, you can just check their rules. they usually have that whole page/pop up or will simply include it in their theme code.

hmm what do you mean by boxes for previews? i don’t think i’ve ever seen such as thing. it sounds interesting, though. are they previews for like posts or…?

YEAH OMG I’M REALLY EXCITED BECAUSE FEBRUARY IS BOTH MINE AND ALSO @taesthetes​‘ BIRTHDAY MONTH SO ITS LIKE A BIRTHDAY PRESENT WOOHOO

thank you for loving our collaboration! i’m still amazed on how quickly we got things put together and everything… honestly… cat and @zephyoongist​ are so talented i don’t know what i’m doing here :’) (or where i would be without them)

and now finally…

(for the maaaain event)…

okaY OKAY I WILL SCREECH WITH YOU ABOUT NARUTO. RIGHT HERE. RIGHT NOW. just under the cut because spoilers:

I’M SUCH AN EMOTIONAL WRECK OVER NARUTO THE ONLY BEST WAY I CAN TRULY EXPRESS MY THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AT THE MOMENT IS JUST THROUGH BULLET POINTS SO:

i love kakashi

i also love gaara. i can’t choose between the two, but lately i’ve been more biased towards kakashi. i blame it on my sister because she’s always had a thing for him

(i still love you gaara its okay my sand child)

kakashi’s backstory had me in tears… like… with obito died and he’s telling kakashi he’ll give him his sharingan (the sharingan that he’d always been talking about that would get him to hokage) to be his eye to see the future…

i just..

fucking broke down man like dude… stop… you’re killing me here… and then how kakashi really changes afterwards

(okay but listen child kakashi was savage as fuck though and it was hilarious)

(also i know it’s a filler but that one episode in which it showed guy and kakashi comparing dick sizes as kids….,,..,.

….,,..i wasn’t expecting that at all but i don’t mind the info heheheheh heh /dies)

OKAY BUT THEN RIN DIES WHY

literally if she hadn’t died a lot of the issues in naruto wouldn’t have occurred but they fucking did

no i’m not blaming her she died for a noble reason okay it just makes me really sad i’m sorry

AND FINALLY MINATO DIES TOO AND KAKASHI IS THE LAST OF HIS TEAM IM EMO

on a side note minato and kushina were cute as fuck

ANYWAYS GAARA OH MY OH MY GOD MY POOR BABY as a kid he was so cute and just wanted some friends and was out helping all those villagers and such but then his damned dad just had to go and screw those things up like STOP IT HE;S MY CHILD

even though i love those two, my favorites are actually the akatsuki

like. they hate each other but istg they secretly love each other like have you seen kakuzu and hidan’s interactions??? they tease and insult and threaten (and have killed) each other but kakuzu is actually patient with hidan’s rituals and such, and hidan will still accompany kakuzu to the collection centers

also, when he sees asuma’s guardian shinobi thing the first thing that comes to mind is kakuzu and how he’d want him for the money and he’s like u gh but like !!!

and AND when hidan at first thinks he’s accidentally killed kakuzu in his fight with shikamaru & co., he has that look of panic ooooh my god I JUST GASHUDFJSDIJASD

also hidan is just hilarious. like when they go to recruit him he’s like “who are you guys, all wearing the same clothes?? are you guys an orchestra or band or something?”

/points at kakuzu/ bet you play the bass

/points at konan/ bet the girl does vocals and keyboards

/points at itachi/ …or do you do vocals…?

and then the first thing hidan and kakuzu do to each other is kill each other

the look of utter disbelief on both of their faces

“what the–why aren’t you dead?”

“bitch that hurt–wait. why aren’t you dead?”

but anyways we can’t forget about itachi and kisame either, now can we?? like. they are actually like the only partner group that openly got along with each other, and they were sad oh my god they were sad upon realizing each other’s death’s

and idk just the way kisame says “itachi-san” does something to me

 i t a c h i

oh boy i have so much to say about this kid

but before i move on i must! address! the others!!

okay so like deidara is actually op as fuck and sometimes idk i feel like he doesnt get enough credit?? idk.

BUT LIKE LISTEN OKAY HE GOES THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS TO SEAL THE ICHIBI AKA SHUKAKU AKA GAARA’S TAILED BEAST and then immediately after decides to take on naruto (and kakashi)

AND HE ONLY HAD ONE ARM AT THE TIME HAVING JUST LOST ONE IN HIS FIGHT WITH GAARA LIKE WHAT IS THIS STAMINA AND HOW DOES HE NOT BLEED OUT THIS KID IS FUCKING AMAZING WHAT THE HELL

and he’s 19 like lol what bye

but anyways, after his “fight” he loses his other arm because kakashi and now he’s armless BUT THIS KID STILL HOLDS HIS OWN though completely on the defense AGAINST TEAM GAI LIKE WHAT THE FUCK HE’S AMAZING and then he manages to create a bomb without using any sort of handseals and fools them all into thinking he’s dead

like

i love this boy give him a metal why did he have to die so early why (yet another reason why i dislike sasuke lmfao)

black zetsu scares the fuck out of me (esp when i learned of his true past and intentions) but white zetsu!! he’s such a sweetie holy shit

I JUST REALLY LIKED THAT TIME WHEN HE BURSTS INTO THE 5 KAGE SUMMIT AND HE’S LIKE “HALLLLOOO!!!!!!” WITH THE ARMS AND EVERYTHING DAW OMG

and also unlike so many others he actually likes everyone and when he saves deidara he’s like “you’re a fun guy to be around” and then and then later when he’s talking to tobi he reveals that he’s sad that so many of the akatsuki members died like D::

let’s not forget when black zetsu called him weak (they had split in two at the time) and white zetsu just kind of D: and wilts a little like ooHH NO oo baby it’s okay it’s okay

ahem

konan is so strong… holy crap… like… her ultimate attack? with the bajillion paper explosive tags disguised as a lake?? that go off for 10 minutes? holy fuck.

yahiko’s pretty damn hot if you ask me (yes i know he’s a cadaver in the main time period but listen)

idk my favorite arc of the entire thing was pain’s invasion of konoha… like from the moment jiraiya’s message arrived to when everyone got revived…. and then kakashi almost became hokage…

it was fantastic

i think it’s mainly because it was a mystery, race against time, battle thing all in one and it was so neat i guess

also you could see everyone in the village working together, fighting their hardest, showing their potentials for like, the first time ever

um um um okay sasori mentally scarred me as a child, and now whenever i hear the rattling puppet noises i immediately think of these scary nightmares i had after watching his fight with sakura… yeah, puppets scare me a lot now

orochimaru is a creep ‘nuff said moving on

tobi! i love this alternate ego of obito/”madara” like idk he’s so jumpy and honestly it’s fucking hilarious watching him because he’s so secretly op certain people underestimate him at first (and then others overestimate him because of his association with akatsuki)

like. when he was warding off konoha from itachi vs sasuke’s fight (which i am still emo about) he was just like playing whack-a-mole with them and then he’s like lemme use this ability! frill-necked lizard!

and they all kinda stand and stare at him intensely execting something legit

but in reality that’s it. the extent of htat ability is just him hanging upside down with the cloack falling behind him to look like a frill-necked lizard

and it’s fucking hilarious

i also thought it was fucking adorable when he and deidara first confront sasuke

and the little bitch goes ahead and slices through him

literally through him

and HE MAKES THE MOST ADORABLE NOISE BEFORE FALLING FLAT ON HIS FACE GAH

but sasuke thinks that he actually killed him and sasuke’s all like “one down”

and deidara just kinda

ugh this kid

and tobi gets up and brushes himself off like wow that was rly fast!!! and sasuke just >:/

URM OKAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE AKATSUKI MEMBERS

sorry i thought i should make this clear but i lowkey highkey have this vendetta thing against sasuke like this little shit

i mean ofc i know the reason for his disillusionment really isn’t all his fault like @ itachi really?

like really when he goes back to konoha and sasuke tries to kill him… he goes and easily breaks his wrist

and he kinda just considers him for a moment like

…hm

how about i….. make his situation even worse…?

and then traps him in a genjutsu that forces him to relive their parents death for 24 hours like why the fuck this is literally all your fault

and also on a side note, fuck danzo. why the fuck did the 3rd not kill him when he was supposed to. why. all the wrong people lived for far too long.

anyways

but yeah no idk i just really don’t like sasuke after he defected and became a Vengeful Teen

AND ITACHI’S STORY MAKES ME CRY EVERY TIME HOLY SHIT IT MAKES ME SO SAD WHY DID THIS BOY HAVE TO SUFFER SO MUCH and then mess up his little brother’s psyche to the point in which he starts killing like everyone wtf

AHEM

another favorite moment arc of mine is the very beginning

like the first 15ish episodes

IRUKA SENSEI

he’s such a blessing. he’s literally one of those crucially important side characters and i appreciate him and i love him and it would’ve been nice to see more of him, but hey, that’s okay too.

(his part in the naruto road to ninja movie had me in tears. like at the end. fucking tears.)

like naruto and kakashi may be super close and stuff, but when he needs someone as a guardian, naruto turns to iruka and idk i feel that says a lot about their relationship and it makes me cry all the fucking time

um anyways yes i also love zabuza

he’s so strong and empowered

AND THAT WHOLE ARC MADE ME CRY A LOT TOO AND THE FACT THAT IT BECOMES SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE STORY MAKES ME SO FUCKING HAPPY

i have a lot more the say probably but it’s getting late and i need to take a shower and sleep and get up early in the morning to make food so i’ll just leave it at that

(i wrote a lot i know i’m sorry)

(hope i didn’t blow you away with any spoilers D:)
