watched uhh dorothy returns ro wizard of oz (2013) and i'd give it a 6.5/10 in general but entertainment wise i'd give it an 8.5 (tbf i was watching it with my brother idk how i'd rate it if i was alone) theres a part where they need a boat and dorothy snaps a piece of wood off a tree who yells in pain and then every tree there starts throwing rocks and acorns at her but then it cuts to a tree hunched over and hes like "take me... take me." and i csnt properly explain why it's so unbelievably funny. the line delivery makes him sound so accepting like he's really willing to die to help dorothy get a boat and i can't stop thinking about it
#also watched dino king. uh. 29 minutes in my brother and i thought it was gonna end soon so we paused and saw we still had an hour left#and we both visibly went HUH??? and i was like are we gonna power through this movie or watch khumba......and he chose to power through#for a dinosaur movie it's not bad i actually really like what they tried going for? ie using footage of real landscape and cgi-ing dinos#in it to make it seem like it's Real Life. obviously the cgi is so very noticable but they did pretty good👍🏼#when speckles (main character) fell into water instead of cgi-ing the water the dropped something irl but put his model over ir#which i find neat i didnt think they'd do that. kinda sad at the lack of blood when the dinos would kill each other#also speckles' family dies which i expected and when the timeskip happens and he finds a girl and then she dies i expected however i did no#expect them to kill two out of three kids like i'm glad junior survived but god damn after the first one died i was hoping the last two#would survive at the very least. also fuck one eyed i thought he was just survivng at first but no he literally started beef#with a one year old dinosaur baby and decided Yeah Im Gonna Ruin Your Life Forever Buddy#my brother and i when speckles finally kills one eyed: yoooo YOOOOOO#movie would have heen better with like 98% more blood but when they did sue blood they used both cgi and fake irl#which i'll admit was kinda cool#fuck you one eye i fucking hate you#ok anywaus we tried watching khumba but didnt bc it was getting late so we watched the first 20mins and then skipped to the end#i think it wouldve been a nice movie? i have no idea but i mean i didnt hate what i saw#if you guys rver wanna watch a movie just got to free with ads on youtube ive been obsessing over those for months now#btw dino movies are very boring to me i forgot to add that. so yeah dino king IS boring to me but i had fun

30y old Toby headcanons?
this is all written under the assumption that nobody is dead or in prison, also written for my AU in which slenderman and the operator are opposing forces, with slenderman taking the operators victims as proxies
at this point tim and brian would have completely gotten away from slenderman/the operator, being well into their 40s. probably moved all the way to the west coast, maybe even out of the country.
which means there'd only be kate and toby left. they'd both be exhausted. the operator and slenderman wouldve been 'fighting' for ~25+ years by now, so they have longer periods of going dormant - but they are still immortal entities, so there is no quitting. kate would've moved full time into the proxy cabin, rather than the mines, so they'd be spending a lot of time together.
clocky is the closest to toby, but by now she'd have a nice little apartment and is working full time. her time under the operators influence is completely over. maybe toby would move in with her, but she'd be hesitant. loves him to death but she's trying to get away from the shit that toby would always come back to. she wants to find peace
he'd still have to be working in places that dont require a background check. or even an ID. or be willing to pay in cash. he still gets angry to the point of tears knowing he'll never be able to move freely through the world since his name, DNA, fingerprints all link him back to his dad. even 13 years later he cant get away from his dad
he misses tim and brian. they were awful to him half the time, but sometimes they were like father figures - tim taught toby how to drive, brian patched toby up countless times, they've all sat and had a few drinks together and watched some movies, they were all toby had for a year after his dads death. but they completely cut toby off, probably completely cut eachother off too - toby couldnt find them even if he tried. which he did, for a while
toby would stop trying to visit his mom, but he'd still visit lyras grave. he used to drop flowers off mothers day, birthday, christmas - he'd find some train that'll take him as far as possible and just leave them out for his mom. usually he found gloves, jackets, blankets laying out on the porch he left them on. he stopped when his mom inevitably moved out of her sisters house, he has no idea where she went.
maybe there would be new proxies to take in. some kid who just killed their best friend and finds themself constantly waking up in random areas with blood on their hands, throwing up black liquid and seeing weird faceless men all around - and toby would have to take on tim and brians role, and try to help this kid, and try to be better, and try not to beat their ass everytime they piss him off. try not to treat them the way he was treated. it would suck ass watching that happen to someone else, but part of him would think maybe that means it's time him and kate can finally escape - but there is something about toby and kate that cant seem to shake slenderman, not the way the others did
i think 30 year old toby would be pretty somber all around. any initial rage that fueled him, or excitement that motivated him, or joy he found in the freaks around him would've worn off by now

I watched Jennifer's body last night and thought of you because ik you've mentioned it, it was really good I liked it alot. I had no idea that it was actually like... good, I thought it was a mean girls esque chick flick (also good, I love that movie, but ykwim.) I guess I'd only seen like female manipulator posts or gay fanart posts, and I always avoided actually reading your posts because I didn't want to spoil it for myself. I love needy but I think Colin was my favorite character.
Yeah I think it definitely gets misrepresented online as like the girlboss killing boys cute lesbian movie when its not, I dont want to read too much into that because people like joke about Breaking Bad Walter and Jesse in a way thats antithetical to the show and stuff but with Jennifers Body it just feels like people cant handle a movie that complex lol
The literal climax of the movie is Jennifer at prom WITH LOW SHOULDER THERE and killing Needys dorky boyfriend because she wants to hurt and possess Needy. She mostly does not give a fuck about what Low Shoulder did to her because even though it was traumatic it made her powerful and hot, the boys she kills are like very innocent kids and she spends the entire movie like systemically hurting Needy and breaking down her self esteem. I still like Jennifer and I think the story is one a lot of girls can relate to. But Needy is the one who goes on to kill Low Shoulder for what they did to Jennifer. I feel like the movie is just consumed so differently online as like the girlboss murdering rapists movie when the first person Jennifer kills is like this random nice exchange student she speaks in an incredibly racist way about and then the second is this boy whose grieving a murder and repeatedly tells her to stop advancing on him sexually and so on. I get its not that serious but its just so weird and very white Tumblr feminism lol
The woman who wrote that movie was a Chicago based like groupie and she wanted Pete to star in it as Nikolai and if he had he wouldve wrecked the movie but it would have been so iconic

MINDNOTES #1
HELLO I AM HAVING A GREAT TIME RIGHT NOW AND I AM ON ONE F MY OTHER ANOTHER EPISODES WHERE I AM VERY EXCITED AND ELEVATED AND HAPPY SO I TELL ALL GREAT NOTES OF MY MIND@!!!!!!!
okok so i was just rewatching borat because that movie always makes me laughHAAHH very funny and it makes me smile but then again i wish borat wouldve never went after pamela like WHAT is the point why is it always a love interest as the goddamn goal???? although i found it very funny when he tried to kidnap her very nice! HBHJABHJB!! s os  soi ... hm... well i have noticed that my mind has been ac wait acting up LATELY AND BASICALLLLLLYYY i have found out nNO NO i HAVE realized and recognized that my mind has been having trouble making differenence between fictiona nd reals OH MY GOD> fiction and reality. im having trouble deciphering them. like i cant tell the difference sometimes. and what i mean by that, i mean im having trouble with my dreams and reality. i dream of something or a have one of my elaborate day dreams and i think its actually happened. and i know this happens when im tired but i mean i now think of these in the middle of the day and i just take it as the real thing BUT WAIT there is more. basically, sometimes i just receive information from literally no where... i just have the memory like when i think of a dream i had I KNOW it was a dream BUT NOWADAYS i cant tell.. like usually i can tell if that memory is from a dream but now I CANT.. so now i cant really trust myself.. hm.. but anyways.... I WAS THIKING::; GODDAMMIT I HATE HAVING TRICHOTILLOMANIA AND BASICALLY that means i have issues with tearing or RIPPING out my own hair although my issue is a bit more risky due to me ripping out my damn EYE LASHES and so now i fear getting a retinal detachment? i think thats whats its called i cant remember i saw it somewhere OHB AHABHABHJA THERES GREAT THING I MUST SAy and basically me and friend in 4th grade made up are own little slang in wich friction=sex and we thought that was FUNNNNNYYYY AHAHAHAHAHA it still makes me smile mwhheheheheheheh..... hm. ok i think my hyperness is wearing off... aw man.. hm........ well the weather has been nice, huh? NOT! very crappy but i do not care. i was thinking about the future and i thought HEY! what will i bewhen im older? a prostitue? and so that also reminded me that of antinatalism which i very much enjoy!!! it intrigues me very much and basically i think and i probably wait i mean HOLD ON.............................. ok so yeah i may be an antinatalist.... yes ... sounds right... BUT I CANT BE SURE>>> i almost read the entire wikipedia page for it and its all fun but i was reading it in class when we were suppose to be reading something else but what we were assigned was very boring so i just read it instead but i kept falling asleep cuz its 1st hour, duh!!! but i read it previosuly and i was just trying to work my memory again i dunno.. and so like yeah. where do we go when we die?? well i am a realist so obviosuly we go back to the void BUT what if we do go to heaven? hmm.. well i bet its boring.. and hell? must be boring too... but i would also like the idea of reincarnation which i have been thinking of for a very long time since i was a wee lad and i believe it and i always thought of being reborn as a bunny but i really dont want to be reborn again... cuz i dont like living but! im not suicidal, only on sundays.. OH EYAH! that reminds me i was sent to teh counselors office for searching up a gg allin song HAAHAHHA it was so sfunny!!!! s i acted really cocky with the counselor and then i was reminded of my inner misogyny.. and yes.... i did have issues with misogyny.. uh huh... internalized, really. but i am trying not to be such an ass about it. i dont feel like that anyway.. only on sundays. OH YEAH>>>> wait nevermind. hm. what was i talking about.. OH YEAH so i truly believe i was never suppose to be born, so what does jesus or god or whatever do about the children who were accidents? thats right. he does nothing about them... so im kinda alone i guess... WELL IM USED TO THAT!!!! maybe thats why i am not blessed and have been a very unlucky person?? well.. i dunno. i guess yeah. im not very lucky. but im fine with that. AND I DUNNO ABOUT U GUYS but when someone confesses they like you it just disgusts me.. it feels violating.. gives me a horrible sick feeling in me. im saying this because last time i was confessed to which was last year i thought about killing myself for a week straight i think and became really self conscious of myself and i was all like: EWW YUCK HOW>??? i was pissed off for about.. hmm 5 months after the event?? took me a while for myself to become less hostile to that person. now we are good friend but every now and then the feelings come back and i think of killing them.. hey confessor if u see this SORRY!!!! but anyways speaking of killing i have realized.. hmm.. im not as violent as i used to be. you see when i was a very little wee lad i was very much fixated on the idea to kill small animals, and that immediatley gies the m=imp IMPRESSION that i ama  sociopath but you are wrong. i think i was just way more disturbed back then. i was like 6-7 years old dont blame me. but when i did get my hands on that bird.. heehhe well i kidnapped it and i dont remember but i did partake in throwng it.. i dont know why. i tried to care for it but it died. i really wanted to squeeze its body and stuff.. glad i didnt. rest in peace little bird. hmm.. but I GUESS i was partake and partook in too and parred with punching my friends sometimes BUT ONLYclose close friends. wich i i do not see anymore. .. .  sad.... my friend.. WIAT WIAY i just remebered hat got me to watch borat in the first place!!! it was when i was at the thrift store and i saw him!! my beloved borat and it hought he was sooo cute like a little puppy but father said not to watch it so i was like... oh..okay.... its good though because my virgin eyes could not handle borat in blu-ray quality. NOT! it wasnt a blu-ray. wait i had another idea. its fading..... hm.. well okay.. i think im done. i love the smell of weed... but only the aged smell... its wonderful. ever since kindergarten i was hooked. and thats not an exaggeration.

top ten danny phantom episodes based solely on how gay dash is in them
i will not be ranking these based on plot, animation, or literally any other criteria ok here we go
10: Public Enemies
Tumblr media
dash himself is not very gay in this one but danny does beat him up and he gets the angst of being possessed and not remembering what happens. also this screenshot is literally so gay
4/10 for wasted potential in proving dash is gay. this couldve gone so much harder. but bonus points for for passed out dash
Tumblr media
9: Doctor’s Disorders
Tumblr media
fellas is it gay to lock yourself in a bathroom stall so fenturd doesnt see the horrible monster youve become, tell him to ‘get away,’ and then pass out before being able to fight him despite being a school jock who could probably deal some damage and has a better immune system than the other kids? is it also gay to then when your entire life revolves around ghosts and having ghost powers to watch a sappy romcom while waiting for phantom to come save you? the answer is yes. 6/10 again it couldve gone harder
8: Frightmare
Tumblr media
again dash himself isnt explicitly gay in this episode. but danny why is your ultimate dream scenario being best friends with dash and having him know your secret. it gets a higher rating than the other two bc its literally a wish fulfillment scenario aka 174% more gay. but mathematically speaking 2/10 for baiting me with dash in the first two minutes and then never bringing him back
7: Forever Phantom
Tumblr media
“watch it, fentertainment tonight! i’m chasin’ a real somebody!” 10/10
also spending the entire episode devoted to hanging with phantom + another reference to the romance channel. not very nuanced but still very gay
6: Reality Trip
Tumblr media
what do you think it means when the school jock finds out your secret, wastes exactly 0 time in helping you, and finds a way to shoehorn in giving you his clothes to wear while doing it. dash was only in this entire movie for like 4 minutes but damn if he wasnt homosexual for all of them 7/10
5: Ultimate Enemy
Tumblr media
”but dash wasn’t even IN the ultimate enemy!!11!1!” EXACTLY. if older dash had been in the future with dark dan he simply would have smooched him and then there would have been no conflict. if younger dash had shown up to the big fight then dark dan wouldve broke down sobbing at what couldve been. they had to restrain dash from this entire episode bc of his power. 9/10 i know the truth.
4: Splitting Images
Tumblr media
it is important to remember that dash has no goddamn idea that’s sidney. danny literally does 1 (one) nice thing for him and dash decides “ok well i will be his best friend and play football with him and be impressed by his skills and then throw a party and also put my hands on his shoulders several times.” this proves my point that if danny werent a little shit he and dash would already have been dating by the time the show starts. 8/10 for letting dash be mundanely gay instead of knowing anything about ghosts. it doesnt happen very often
3: Attack of the Killer Garage Sale
Tumblr media
do you ever just get a tutor who happens to be the exact sister of that nerd you pick on and also call him a twink and then invite him to your party even though you do not have to and specifically tell him the dress code and get him at the popular kids table and then realize he might not have the money for the dress code so you intentionally seek him out to give him money for some computery thing you dont know about but you also also realize that probably isnt enough so last minute you change the entire dress code to something you know he has and wear his exact outfit to make him seem cool by comparison. do you ever do that.
Tumblr media
also these two shots are back to back 10/10
2: Micro Management
Tumblr media
the pièce de résistance of all dash content. im talking 20 minutes of nonstop dash. im talking taking every opportunity to talk about how cool phantom is. im talking abt getting grabbed by phantom to be saved by him. im talking abt having a mental breakdown cause you think youre not good enough. im talking about casually flirting via jokes. im talking being unable to stop thinking abt fenton even when youre face to face with your biggest hero. im talking about saying “we did it!!! :D” to cheer on said hero. im talking taking his hand. holding his hand. being lifted or pulled. im talking abt flipping the switch to save the day! im talking abt micro fucking management baybey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 12/10
but what in the goddamn world could have more gay dash than micro management??? well ill tell you
1: Pirate Radio
Tumblr media Tumblr media
he SAVES him. he calls him a hero. they are on EQUAL FOOTING and they KNOW IT. they have MATCHING GODDAMN OUTFITS!!!!!!!!!!! dashs personality doesnt have to be absolutely scrapped for him to be gay (”but i will be wailing on you”) but he clearly DOES get better (”sorry, old habits.”) he puts his heart and soul into fighting side by side w danny and we dont even SEE dashs parents which means that is Not Exactly The Reason he Is Here. he also believes with 0 hesitation that fenton is capable of throwing a total rager. NO there is not as much dash here as in micro management but. i mean look at these screenshots. THIS is gay representation. THESE are some genuine fucking boyfriends. 18/10

watched legends of tomorrow 4.13 a couple days ago it was good :) “egg macguffin” is such a funny title it made me laugh. i like how this episode is somewhat more low stakes and is more character focused rather than plot focused (at least till the climax). in that way it reminds me a bit of 4.10 which also had a decompressed low key feeling that worked well since the preceding episodes had been very action-filled and plot-heavy. 4.13 gives us a chance to take a breath, and pays off some of the subplots that have been simmering throughout the season. 
the various storylines of the episode work well together in my opinion. for the most part the moral of the story is that repressed things will never stay repressed: zari & nate have to confront their feelings for each other, ray has to deal with the consequences of his actions (getting possessed by a demon), mick has to finally come out as rebecca silver, and gary has to deal with the bitter feelings that have been bubbling up since the start of the season. a nice neat through line! 
nate/zari romance is like fine its fine its nice whatever. i do still like the new side of zari that this romance brings out but i gotta be honest ever since i jumped on the #zarlie train i just cannot bring myself to be like actually invested in nate/zari. still zari was super pretty in the dress and it was kinda cute to see them flirting. whatever. despite being the a plot this was the storyline that i found least interesting in part because i have never seen an indiana jones movie. i did enjoy the golden egg. AND the reveal that it was NOT simply an egg maguffin after all but possibly a game-changing plot element???? who wouldve guessed! 
wait i just remembered the nate/zari romance WASNT the a plot bc the a plot was ray being possessed by a demon. i have to say i had high hopes for this storyline and i was a bit disappointed. i think maybe it just isn’t very interesting to see ray arguing with himself? like you just kind of see this 1 guy in a room talking to his hand. the physical acting was very good but still i think the way neron manifested was not the most interesting or engaging choice. i did love the tension of his scenes with nate where hes trying to keep from killing him and nate is totally oblivious. the way this episode puts ray’s love for nate on the same level as his love for nora is insane like WHAT exactly are you trying to say here....i will never not be perplexed by the ray/nate pseudo-romance. 
mick. oh mick. genuinely he is a homosexual man. this episode is literally about him “coming out” as acclaimed romance novelist who uses a female pen name and he is insecure and afraid of letting everyone down but everybody loves him just as they always have. in real life i know there is a common experience of gay men relating to female characters and i think that might come into play with mick’s storyline here. but i’ll save that for another post. but literally like all the gender stuff of this storyline is so interesting. charlie can shapeshift and style herself into a woman who looks exactly how people expect rebecca silver to look but that doesn’t make her rebecca silver. only mick can channel the true rebecca silver energy because he is her. plays with ideas of authenticity and presentation we love it. 
gary reveal was fun. in that one scene transition where sara is telling ava who she thinks was the murderer in the novel and she says “it’s always the doormat” and the scene changes to gary and ray and the camera lingers on gary just a little too long.....in that moment i knew he would betray them. and i was right! this direction for gary isn’t one i was expecting but i think it works. i mean honestly i think it makes gary seem like a more rational person because if people were that mean to me all the time i would make a deal with a demon too. the nipple inching toward him was genuinely such a horrifying visual i love it so much. i like how the nipple symbolizes gary’s loss of innocence, and he wants to go back but he can’t go back but he doesn’t realize that yet. i was kinda hoping neron would possess gary just bc it would be so creepy to see but i guess not yet. well all in good time. i like that it’s constantine’s impersonal manipulative way of using people that pushes gary to the dark side. oh constantine dont you know youre on a show where they defeat the bad guys by using the power of friendship? excited to see gary go ham next episode. 
book club subplot was really lovely. first of all i love that mona and nora and ava have a book club together and second of all i love that they did the book club at nora’s bedside even though she was unconscious because it wouldnt be book club without her and third of all i love that ava doesnt actually read the books she just participates because she likes having friends. i’m glad the show picked up the friendship between these 3 women after it was established earlier in the season instead of just dropping it. it’s nice! it’s a nice friendship. we love female friendship. 
also i like that even though this episode is light on the avalance content (which is totally fair considering last episode was so focused on them) it still has these very sweet moments between them. sara committing to read the book for book club cause ava asked her to is so sweet and thoughtful. i think it does show that their relationship is moving forward in a healthy way after the events of last episode. also i was right that sara likes to read cheap mysteries and thriller novels! i was right i was right i was right

ok, cinderella (2021) rambling:
it's definitely more light hearted than most cinderella stories. much like Happy Feet 2 (2011) the opening number is rhythm nation performed by,, basically every character. then there's this super drastic tone shift from everyone singing and dancing to camila cabello in a basement.
however it becomes clear pretty quickly that this cinderella is in a much better living situation than most other cinderellas. for one, she's very clean. at one point one of the stepsisters is like, "there's dirt on your face," when there's literally not a hair out of place on camila's head. she has a very spacious basement bedroom, again very clean, with a nice queen sized bed, and lots of space for her dressmaking, because this cinderella is a girlboss designer. her relationship with her stepfamily is more tense than straight up abusive. really only one of the stepsisters is mean, the other is just kinda simple, and the conflict with her stepmother comes more from her not supporting cinderella's girlboss ambitions.
also, idina menzel plays the stepmother and, no shade to miss cabello, but every time they sing together idina sings cabello under the table.
but yeah, the stepmother's whole deal is that she wants all her daughters (cinderella included) to marry well so that they can have a secure future, later we find out that this is because she tried to Have It All when she was a young woman and lost her husband for being too ambitious. this causes friction with cinderella bc she dont need no man, she just wants to run a boutique! but women arent allowed to own businesses in this kingdom >:( . cinderella is less "a servant in her own house" in this and more of like, the family's black sheep, she's a creep, she's a weirdo. she's also very sassy, very snarky, actually so is everyone else. everyone's always making witty comebacks and snide comments.
speaking of weirdos. i didnt like the costuming, especially the townspeople's. it was all over the place, like there'd be a man in one of those baggy peasant shirts and burlap pants next to some dude in jeans and flannel. and cinderella's ballgown top (bustier?) was too big for her. like, she'd dance and she would literally move inside of the thing, it fit her like a turtle shell. the skirt was ugly too. oh! near the beginning she goes out to sell one of her dresses, and she runs into the prince in disguise and he buys it, its a whole meet-cute thing. later we see his little sister wearing it at the ball after its been hyped up as like, "wow, ella youre such a boss designer," and its literally three pieces of tulle wrapped around each other.
which reminds me, something i really liked was the prince's sister, princess gwendolyn. she's this precocious young woman with a ceo haircut who has all these ideas about how to improve the kingdom and she just wants a seat at the table but the king wont allow it because she's a girl. also she's constantly dressed in these medieval executive realness outfits with like, turtlenecks; i found it very funny. the movie could've been about her and i wouldve been happy.
the pumpkin. the pumpkin. billy porter shows up in a gorgeous gold get-up to do the whole fairy godmother thing, and after giving cinderella her ugly dress he turns a crate into a carriage and horses, and the birtish comedian mice into her driver and footmen. now, granted not every cinderella needs a pumpkin carriage. the grimms' cinderella gets her things from the tree at her mother's grave and the birds. however, the fairy godmother, the glass slippers, the transformations, and the stroke-of-midnight thing are all present here and, i think, the pumpkin carriage is part of that iconic perrault bundle.
honestly i'm not so mad at it now that ive had some time away from it,, but i wouldn't watch it again. the songs all felt very... shallow. it's a jukebox musical, but it doesnt feel very cohesive, and breaks into song and dance very abruptly. ultimately i dont think its that bad of a movie, but its not good either. what it is bad at though is being a cinderella story. i think if you called it something like "the dressmaker and the prince: a modern fairytale" and just played with general fairytale tropes a la Ella Enchanted (2004) and Enchanted (2007) without being explicitly a cinderella story you wouldnt lose anything. the screenwriter+director, kay cannon, has worked on 30 rock, new girl, and basically created the whole pitch perfect franchise, as well as the short-lived netflix comedy, Girlboss. when i heard about that last one everything about cinderella (2021) kinda made sense.

danny phantom season 2, ep 12-16 thoughts! these episodes, in comparison to the first 10 or so, felt way more laid back and low-stakes, which I appreciate sometimes. I didn't appreciate how lazy jack's halfa design was in masters of time, it made me so annoyed I redesigned it. 👎🏻 u_u
see prev episode thoughts in this tag <3
-'picking a fight with me and my upgraded form!' 'you upgraded to a mullet?' DANNNNY. YOU CANT SAY THAT TO TECHNUS. YOUVE HAD A MULLET TWICE NOW ('fun' split danny, and evil future danny BOTH HAD THEM). I HAVE THE RECEIPTS.
-danny seeing technus hurting valerie and yelling I AM GOING TO BREAK YOU IN HALF. SAMEEEE <3
-axion labs is now a part of vladco. FUCK YOU VLAD. hes not even really IN this episode, but just thought I'd throw out a nice fuck you anyway.
-'capable of blasting a single person into space in (2) minutes!' tucker. that would kill someone. i mean yeah they might get to space, but theres NO WAY THEY WOULDNT CATCH FIRE, OR THEIR ORGANS WOULDNT LIQUIFY BECAUSE OF THE STRAIN. THEY'D PROBABLY PASS OUT BEFORE THEN, BUT. ...no, okay, I get why vlad bought this company. this is RIGHT up his alley.
-danny KNOWS VAL DIDNT DO THIS, THAT SOMEONE STOLE THE SUIT. AND SPENDING ALL NIGHT CHATTING WITH HER. <3 and val is a 9TH DEGREE BLACKBELT?? danny's mom is, too!! omg and she hunts ghosts, his parents would love her. and her fav fruit is kumquat bc its a funny word. im so with danny val is amazing. I love her and I Do Not Want To Hear It From Sam.
-I knew danny wanted to be an astronaut, but the bowling tidbit is like. yes give me more useless info abt these characters, I love tiny details that make them feel more human, and im glad hes got hobbies aside from ghost stuff, we dont really see a lot of that!!! (I mean, we knew 'fun' danny from when he split himself in half liked bowling, so obv it makes sense he LIKES it, but hes very GOOD at it. so proud of him, bowling king) val calling him neil armstrong and them teasing each other. LOVE THAT.
-technus you are my favorite grandpa for setting this up. SAM WHY ARE YOU BEING SO CREEPY BE HAPPY FOR YOUR FRIEND!!! STOP SPYING ON THEM!!! who actually cares if technus did 'set them up' together, theyre having fun and enjoy each others company!!! 'you think the universe wants you two to be together?' 'i dunno, but maybe /I/ do!' EXACTLY DANNY!!! SOO TRUE.
-and valerie being happy sam said she wants to try and be happy for them and make room at the lunch table for them. and hugging sam over it. VAL NEEDS MORE FRIENDS.
-VAL GOING AFTER TECHNUS IN HER SUIT WITH (1) MILK, AND (1) TREE BRANCH AND KEYS!!!. I LOVE YOUUUU BEST GIRL. her new suit kicks ass
-dannys like 'HEY IM AN ASTRONAUT :D' AW. ...HES IN SPACE... the fact he's actually intending to give her the ring. with SAMS NAME ON IT?? IM CRINGING DANNY NO. YOU CANT DO THAT...thank god he didnt. thank god valerie cut it off and said they can just stay friends for now. tbh, they both have a lot on their plates!! they obv both still like each other...it can be a future thing!! when she knows about phantom! youre 14 theres no need to rush. I just want her to have friends and be happy :(
-...danny struggles to do (1) pull up. SAME. but all the ghost fighting in phantom form REALLY doesnt carry over at ALL? that sucks
-sam being as fit as she is, is not just a goth. shes a goth jock.
-honey I Shrank Our Kid, One of his Enemies, and his Bully: the episode
-dash's crush on phantom is So Obvious. fitness buddies :) watching them interact always makes me laugh. also, phantom, with PANTS. 'how many costume changes you gonna go through, what is this, vegas??' DASSH DJKSFHASKDF
-MADDIE GOING AFTER THE MOUSE WITH A BROOM, WHAT THE FUCK. AAAH. JUST BUY SOME KIND OF MOUSE TRAP.
-danny likes lime and vinegar chips. which sound very good.
-'our boy finally has the physical prowess of a 60 year old president!' ...poor danny LMAO
-'what's wrong with beauty pageants' oh tucker you sweet naïve child. what ISNT wrong with them. who approved this for a high school?? (I mean, yes. unfortunately child pageants exist, but...) also danny and tucker once again treating the pretty girls like objects. I need to meet the grown man who wrote this, I just want to talk...
-prince aragon's dragon form reminds me of maleficent (color scheme wise) which is always a bonus. considering the episode is called beauty marked, I feel like the sleeping beauty references are deliberate
-sam with the fake fangs. once again her accessories never miss. hate the 'not like other girls, girls who get sucked into this kind of thing are all shallow and all want to be carbon copies' bs tho.
-sam trying to be the Worst Bride, being rude as shit. DORA IS GOING TO GET KILLED. DID YOU MISS THE PART WHERE SHE SAID THE PRINCE WILL HAVE HER HEAD IF YOU ARENT THE IDEAL BRIDE. YOU /KNOW/ DANNY WILL COME SAVE YOU. JUST ACT CHILL UNTIL THEN. even if you were doing fine to get him to take off the crown, consider maybe not letting his poor sister get punished also?? sure, she could also take off the crown and has dragon powers, but did you know that for sure?? dora didnt even really realize it until you guys talked!! (or at least, she was scared to stand up to him. you had no guarantee she would...) but. good for dora. ANOTHER friendly ghost to add to the List :)
-tucker is so under appreciated in his time. if he was doing a tech-based campaign today he'd have a better shot. people in 2004 had NO IDEA how much tech would be a part of our day-to-day lives...altho. tbh if you're going to be running for student council president, maybe you should..focus on things to actually improve the school? since he's going for a tech angle, he could say like, he would be running fundraisers for the schools computers to be upgraded, etc? we've already SEEN he can be good at money-making entrepreneur type stuff!!
-oh my god wait. this episode is JUST YUGIOH?????! A REBORN PHAROH USING A TEENAGER AS A VESSEL?? YESSSSSS
-tucker using his new minion to feed him grapes and carry him. AND LOCUSTS ONTO THE BULLIES. I love how when he's possessed, he gains winged eyeliner.
-this episode is giving me big 'plankton makes everyone in bikini bottom his slaves and build monuments of him from the spongebob movie' vibes. and the pharaoh has a traitor who works for him? VERY big yugioh vibes. aknadin confirmed
-I like that danny is still completely exhausted after using ghostly wail. (still patiently waiting on him to get duplication)
-LOVE the fenton's 80s outfits. I get hes 14 and embarrassed by everything they do because theyre his parents, but. cmon, this is one objectively cool thing theyve done. love 80s fashion.
-...was vlad just standing on that streetlight waiting for danny to come out? how'd he know they'd be coming out the back? how long has he been up there???
-oh, wait, his ecto-acne has flareups? that SUCKS. danny was...well I dont want to say he was LUCKY HE HALF-DIED, but he was lucky his was pretty instant (I'm assuming that had to do with the power/scale of the portals being different?) I remember in the ep we met him, vlad made a point of saying he was stuck in a hospital for a long time, so. that really actually sucks and I feel bad. not that it excuses anything he's done...but like. it does suck.
-vlad being so sure danny wouldnt help him he made it somehow contagious to his friends to make sure he'd get help? danny is a nice boy, he wouldve helped if it was anyone else. the only reason he wouldn't have is because of the shit vlad did to him, on purpose. vlad 100% dug his own grave by being the biggest asshole, so it is very hard to feel bad for him.
-clockwork is back!!! and making danny learn lessons The Hard Way. Uhhh, okay. I kind of get Danny’s logic, that time traveling this far back would prevent vlad from becoming a halfa also, ergo no arch nemesis or ectoacne to worry about. But the fact that was basically the first solution Danny came up with to solve this problem is actually so funny. It’s so extreme
Tumblr media
-APPRICIATION FOR THESE 80S LESBIAN BG CHARACTERS.
-vlad telling maddie in the lab (in the 80s) he has something he's wanted to tell her 'for a long time'...how long have they known each other? I assumed they met in college, since jack always calls vlad his college buddy/roommate, so jack and vlad for sure met in college, but did vlad know maddie longer? thats surprising if so. Tho we don’t know what year of college they’re in so they could mean they met as freshmen and a few years have past…speaking of maddie shes crushing the 80s look.
-vlad blames jack, but. maybe dont stick your face 2 inches from the portal??! THIS FEELS LIKE LAB SAFETY BASICS. IF SOMETHING HAS POTENTIAL TO BE DANGEROUS, DONT GET NEAR IT. WITH YOUR FACE UNPROTECTED IN ANY WAY. (altho jack didnt really give a Big Warning besides screaming BONZAI. so. also that, but cmon.) also, they need gloves, goggles, and to pull all of their hair back tbh. but fuck lab safety, I guess!
-cryyyyinnng at how lazy they were with jack's ghost form design, its just plasmius' design on jack!!! you couldve given him his own design!!
Tumblr media
-there. I did that in about 10 minutes and its somehow less lazy than what made it into the show. embarrassing! better yet, I think the episode would've been better if maddie would've gotten the ectoacne. or maybe its just me, wanting to see her design! anyway. I'm sure people have already done redesigns of them both as halfas. I have to go look after I finish this watch through. Also mildly frustrated jacks resentment and bitterness is basically also a copy paste of vlads backstory. They’re different characters, I really don’t think jack would stew in bitterness and jealousy the same way vlad would!! I also don’t think he’d give up after one time of trying to hunt ghosts and getting laughed at. Our canon timeline says different…I dunno, I get it was for laughs, but I’m annoyed because the POTENTIAL this plot has…
-did vlad really wear a stupid cheese hat to his wedding. ok actually that kinda rules. and the cheese door knocker. the dairy-only buffet table. vlad still got rich, just on being the New Dairy King. (Assuming that means he owns a lot of dairy businesses?) ok! this actually is great. hope maddie isn't lactose intolerant!
-'no matter how hard I tried, I could never get rid of my ghost half, the half I knew Maddie could never accept' ohh, ouch, what a horrible thing to say to her HALF GHOST SON. 'YOUR MOM WILL NEVER ACCEPT YOU' BASICALLY.
Tumblr media
-maddie strapping danny to the table with a lazer pointed at him in a secret lab she keeps from vlad that she makes a point of saying is sound proof so he can scream all he wants...CHRIST. DANNYS POOR PYSCHE.
-also, not to feel bad for alternate vlad (because, he did lie to maddie saying jack blames her and never wants to see her again...) but. being married to a woman 20+ years and she immediately goes back to jack? if she didnt love vlad and feels like she had to hide shit from him, and says she wasted her best years with him, WHY MARRY HIM. it feels like leading him on!!! cannot believe im feeling bad for vlad, but. this alternate timeline vlad is significantly Less Horrible than Our Vlad. did she not think she'd get funding for her ghost stuff? (which, fair assumption since they're considered 'ghost fanatics/nuts in canon...but...) why did she think jack or vlad would be her ONLY OPTIONS? be like your sister. be single. Actually, this au could’ve been really interesting if after the accident, vlad lied to her and said jack never wanted to see her again, but she stays single. Imagine how much that would bug vlad… like, in her mind, it was never a competition it was jack or no one type situation…
-danny being like 'leave him ALONE' this jack is a HOMEWRECKER, DANNY. let them go to court and settle this at the least. ...or just throw vlad into the portal. (100% human, defenseless vlad) CHRIST, MADDIE THATS BRUTAL. THATS MURDER.
-danny seeing his mom immediately accepting him and his dad being half ghosts in this universe, if I was him this would be a great sign that his universe's maddie would also.
-*maddie voice* "clockwork will help!" *2 seconds later, with clockwork* "I will Not Help." TOUGH LOVE KING. YES LET DANNY SEE THE SODA HIMSELF AND DEVOLP BETTER OBSERVATION SKILLS.
-when clockwork ""reset time to the way it was"" just before danny "meddled"" ...did he really erase a whole alternate timeline? ...damn. because maddie and danny both called it an alternate timeline by name, it splitting when the college incident went different, so it wouldnt have really mattered if he reset it, right. like because danny's timeline is on a different stream? why didnt clockwork just. show danny a replay and not Reset That Timeline. wh...I wonder how many people that Erased From Existence. Anyway! once again stating clockwork is casually terrifying!

reactions (mild spoilers!) on sso comic song of darkness
bc i read it before bed. this is a mix of random reactions + commentary/criticism. no pics sry! under cut bc spoilers, but i dont spoil the story itself, just some content -
- the pages at the intro with character information for some reason made me feel really nostalgic and happy, like, “wow this is a real comic” idk its hard to explain. it reminded me of reading stuff like W.I.T.C.H. as a kid (ive read a billion comics in my life but i compare to this bc its closer in general vibe) 
- anyway wow sso comics. on paper. wow (yeah i have clouds over silverglade but that was a while ago)
- hhehehehehhe south hoofers and raptor in the bg!!!!!! after this panel i kept looking at the bgs for other cameos kjhdsfg
- i can tell the swedish translation is... a bit... meh. like, yeah this is standard, especially today’s standard, but it could be smoother and more natural, which would make it more fun to read (and supportive of the language in the country where sso was made like? idk...)
- AVALON?? U HAVE A FACE??? he looks way more like evergray than i’d have thought though, youd have imagined he wouldnt want to style himself similar to him lol
- its a bit depressing how even tho this comic tries to express everyone’s personalities, lisa still barely feels like she has a personality. she can sing! ok... and... we’re wating... what else? (there are plenty of “boring” people irl, but in media you usually want to exaggerrate or simplify things a little bit) the current lisa seems like she could have more anxiety/depression in her narrative, the old lisa looked like she was tough in a different way than alex, both of those are things that could be pushed. or anything else. 
- my only like, “art related criticism”, also relates to the above - i think more work could be done in using individually unique expressions. im generally not a person who agrees with the idea of “same face syndrome” (often its a stylistic choice which is fair) but i think here it could be a good idea to work a bit more with various expressions - you can have charas who would almost never make huge shocked eyes for personality reasons, charas who always have a very obvious expression (alex does have this a lot in this comic!), charas who always look annoyed or frustrated or scared alongside whatever new emotion they get, etc. just very simplified description bc im already rambling. but basically, letting all charas emote in a similar way also removes layers of personality expression. 
- it’s cool that kora is in here!! love to see many known charas!! not rly interested in random new charas since sso already has a ton to work with 
- was a bit surprised when they said “mistfall, so youre a long way from home?” to kora when they.. were riding to firgrove from valedale? i could have understood this if they were in like epona or golden hills.. but firgrove?? shes specifically not a long way from home? confused
- i do like that the horses’ personalities get expressed, altho it does feel a bit shoved in, it’s still nice to see them. many of us are here bc of loving horses after all, and this comic delivers in featuring them a lot, even if they dont talk. i get that theres a level of “explaining everything to newbies” in this whole comic, even though i could wish that wouldve been done less blatantly. (kids arent dumb!) 
- i do kinda wish the overall story hadn’t been a standalone random thing but something more tied to what we have, exploring parts of the story & charas in sso in more detail, BUT, i think thats a valid direction to go with comics and its more just a personal preference for me. i would anytime take more sso comics that are standalone random stuff than to not have sso comics at all. 
- it seems like the reason concorde is an alive adult in this comic, is bc its an AU where concorde “almost died” but didnt, if i understood it right (they just said “she almost lost concorde”). i think thats a bit weird BUT valid, its ok to have differences in canon between different media of the same story, it tends to be like that between books and movies for example. however personally i wouldve preferred to see comics that explore, for example, the 2 years (?) between SSL and SSO, or each soul rider’s life history in general until now, or exploring in more depth events that happen in the main storyline (in sso or ssl which counts as backstory to sso)
- there were times i committed small giggle during this comic even as an adult man, tho arguably a childish adult man, but just to say that it was enjoyable, and overall i thought it was really exciting and fun to read a full sso comic book, and i hope to see a lot more (even if i’d prefer stuff like what i described - more exploration of existing story/charas). like i said at the beginning, i also got good nostalgic feels etc. i feel a bit sad now that its “over”, i wish i could have a whole pile of volumes to read for the rest of the summer. 
(when i criticise something, it means i care enough about it to criticise it! i tend to criticise stuff i love - aka sso - way more than stuff i have no interest in or dislike, which i just dont talk about much bc that would be a waste of time.)

have you seen/would u recommend pacific rim 2? ive heard some things about newt and idk lol
I feel like Im in the minority that actually did think pru was fun but that being said it ended SO abruptly and with like three separate plotlines completely abandoned that I was really frustrated for days after watching it until I had processed everything and had time to think deeply about it lol it just seemed rly unfinished?? it feels like it was deliberately made as 1/2 of two sequels and there needs to be one more to tie everything up. actually I’m gonna ramble abt this bc I have a lot of thoughts (obvs spoilers under the cut)
the thing about the second one was that I genuinely was enjoying it right up until it ended because I swear to god the moment the end screen went up I yelled "what the fuck, that's it?" out loud into my bedroom bc I was so SHOCKED that THAT'S how it all ended, because it just seemed so incomplete?? Like it seemed like one half of a story, that will only be made whole if there's a third one to tie up all the plotlines that they didn't go through with in the second and if that's the case then I will be completely fine with it but if it doesn't or if they dont have a third one at all I will stay so frustrated lol. one silver lining to this is that the vibe of this movie was so different from the first that it almost feels easy to separate it and just imagine it as an AU if you prefer which is sort of nice; usually if a piece of media I like does something bad I feel all gutted and anxious and terrible that this is the canon I have to accept, but something abt this movie just made it feel like it was sort of a totally separate deal. maybe cuz only 3 of the original characters were in it idk
to start off: I felt like there were a couple of plotlines in it that were just sort of introduced and then never seen through which was very ????? Amara & Vik's weird hate-rivalry thing was one of them; Vik instantly has it out for Amara bc she’s jealous, which is a very interesting concept, and then this prompts Amara to become hostile right back at her, which is also a very interesting concept, and then it never got resolved at all? like they couldve done something really cool with those two but it just never went anywhere. and then there was sort of a weird love triangle thing happening between Jake and Nate and Jules that felt so weird bc it had no significance to the plot at all and it felt like it was only thrown in there for the sake of having ~romantic drama~ idk maybe I wasnt paying too much attention and there was more to it than that but it really just seemed like they wanted to put romance in there and didnt want to bother to put any work into it
BUT the thing about romantic sub plots is that THERE ALREADY WAAAAS OOOOOOOOONE which brings me to the biggest frustration I have w this movie because--and DISCLAIMER, this was also my favourite plot point of the movie bc it was by far the most interesting, the biggest reason for me enjoying the movie at all, and the bit I feel like should have had WAY more attention--Newt and Hermann were like legitimately in love in this movie I swear to god I was watching it and thinking “this is GENUINELY the most blatantly gay thing I’ve ever seen in a feature film and I know that straight ppl are very talented at writing gay romances completely by accident so it’s possible that they just accidentally did it this way but also it is REALLY goddamn obvious oh my gooood?” (and then I did a lot of frantic googling and found out that I was right and Charlie Day & Burn Gorman knew what the fuck they were doing and I felt so validated lol), and yet despite this, the movie had them speak for the last time almost at the halfway point of the film and then spend the entire second half apart and not talking at all and even at the post-credits scene where Jake and Newt talked for a bit Hermann wasn't there?? not even behind Jake to give Newt any searching glances?? Nothing??
dude...Newt being possessed by the precursors is a HUGELY interesting concept that actually makes sense and I wish it had had more attention. I’ve seen a lot of ppl say that pru butchered Newt’s character and I don’t 100% agree bc like...being possessed will change you lmao so while yes I’m obviously sad that he wasn’t himself, I feel like it made sense that he had a slight personality change, because it...wasn’t him anymore. we don’t really see the Newt we all fell in love with in the first movie. we THINK we’re seeing him, but halfway through we find out we’re wrong.
my critiques with that plotline are basically that I wish the reveal had happened a little bit later on, and I wish that it had been a little more obvious I guess?? like, we definitely get hints of it (when Hermann excitedly asks Newt to help him with a dangerous unorthodox project and Newt says “dude why are you doing something so risky when we’ve already got a good plan in motion? just wait for that to be done, it’s fine” and Hermann IS us, he IS the audience when he reacts, because this is a completely insane thing for Newt to say. Newt, who, in the first movie, was so obsessed with finding knowledge that he went behind the marshall’s back to literally risk his life doing something incredibly dangerous just to see what would happen? being given the opportunity to do the same kind of dangerous frivolous act and refusing? this is blatantly out of character, and Hermann is all of us when he’s shocked, “what, you mean you...won’t help me??” which means it wasn’t bad writing on their part, it was purposefully supposed to stand out as something that was wrong and something that we needed to pay attention to. that was a really good scene to hint that something was Not Right with Newt), and I wish there had been a bunch more like it. I think the reveal should have been saved for the end of the second act; I think that should have been the moment that act 2 of a story usually has, that dreadful event that happens that leaves the main characters feeling completely hopeless and unsure what to do.
I also wish that he had managed to break through more than That One Scene, I think it would’ve been more dramatic if he’d had a few moments where he managed to take control for a second to remind us that he’s still in there and still fighting, and I’m sad they didn’t do that. I saw a fan comic that touched on this idea and I think it’s brilliant, even the idea of him suddenly getting a nosebleed and acting distracted to show that that’s the Real Him trying to fight through would have been sooooooooo good.
I also feel like it didn’t make any sense for Nate to be the one to subdue him in the end, I dont even think those two interact at all so like, why was it him?? it would have been so much more dramatic and heartbreaking if Hermann had been the one to confront him so they could’ve had a little conversation on the roof where Newt could once again break through for a second before getting taken over and then Hermann could like idk have a taser hidden behind him that he uses to subdue him and THAT wouldve been a way sadder and more interesting way to do it. I also think Hermann shouldve been the one to speak to him in the post credits scene, or to have him in the background behind Jake just watching him sadly so we can get a couple shots of intense eye contact like UGH I just wish there had been more interaction between the two of them after the reveal happened!! When the movie was over and I realized they never spoke again I felt so upset!!! they're soulmates!! they're literally in love!! this has been CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and segueing in from the soulmate thing, another thing that made me sad was that nobody came in pairs anymore :( aside from Newt and Hermann, they were the only ones gjdfk but in the first one every character had another character that they were paired up with, both for drifting reasons and just for plot reasons (except Chau and Tendo but I’m pretty sure there's actually significance to that too), and in the second one it just sort of felt like everyone was drifting with each other with no strong connection needed and that made it feel way less special. granted, the movie takes place ten years after the first one so in that time maybe technology advanced to the point where you didn't need a strong neural connection to drift anymore, but for the sake of the story it would have been way better if they'd kept the whole soulmates concept from the first one, it made it way stronger and more special
so yeah in conclusion I did think pru was enjoyable and I probably would watch it again some time but also it definitely pales in comparison to the first one and I’m desperately hoping we get one more so they can tie everything together and FIX THINGS KFGH it’s not too late!!!!! I wish I could write Pacific Rim 3 I genuinely think I would do a good job I love storytelling and I’m very passionate about these characters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How do I totes change my life I mean myself, using the law of assumptin? Like 180 deg
Im tired, sick and bored of my life and the ditection its going in is... Not nice
Ive always been indecisive and anxious abut what others think, like i akwats feel like I have to live for others and that's how they will always accept me
I don't think thats how I want to be. And it's thanks to ur blog (and some others ones) and teachings that im sure this is such a pathetic limiting belief to have
The reason i talk abt indecision and being bendable in my decisions is that this means i really don't know how I want to be. I just know I don't want to be the current me
Ive grown up to teachings like "be like a candle, coz melted wax is easily mouldable" and things like that! i just, I just know why I've been so deeply unhappy and secretly hate myself. Its I don't want to b like this. If I could've been moulfed to what ther version of a female is, I wouldve adjusted to it by now right? Like other friends of mine and others around me
But I haven't. I feel like erasing this ask, I feel I'm betrayjg everyone. Idk how to go on like this
I keep smiling 😃 ... Idk inside I'm not smiling most of those times. But I will stand up for myself before its too late. Thank you for your patience ❤️ I will take any advice you have
First of all it’s good to have a direction. You don’t need to have everything figured out just a general idea of what you want.
Seems like you need to start learning yourself from the beginning. Who are you? What do you like? What makes you happy? Start from the simple things, like what kind of food do you enjoy. Other ways to discover yourself is to pay attention to the qualities you admire in others. Do you admire dynamic people? Or maybe you like the chill ones more? Once you know you start taking baby steps towards your true self. You can think about the movies and series you like, romantic? Action? Thriller? And also the clothes you want to wear, find your style! Then you can think about the hobbies you enjoy, etc… there are so many ways to find yourself!
Once you find your direction you start doing self concept affirmations!

Firstly to start off with, ummm a white kurtan, yes please, I know this bitch looks good whatever hes wearing, so it dont matter, BUT THE BLACK TANK TOP OOFFFF YOU BETTER STOP, ITS NOT GOOD FOR MY HEALTH. But moving on, I've finished reading the whole thing now, and I'm writing this in notes, so if you're getting thing like 40 minutes later it's because I'm drafting my ask. Basically I'm just gonna skim read it again and just give you my thoughts and any feedback, if that's okay with you, you can ignore this if you want to, I completely understand. I dont mind at all 😊😊
Ok to start off with, the exposition was really good, you've set the tone and introduced the Ackerman family really beautifully. When I read it initially the fact that Levi did not want a family or to get married was quite emphasised upon to me, and I'm really looking forward for the inevitable development and how his view changes as the chapters go on. I also love how you introduced Farlan and Isabel, and lightly touched upon how they met, you didnt go into too much detail and I really like that, it kept me focused on the actual story itself, which is about Levi and not Farlan. And Farlan wanting tto marry her 😢😢. I think it's really really sweet and I cant wait to see more of them. I love it so much.
The transition from setting the scene to their father being poisoned was not something I was expecting and made me go oh shit he dead. Part of me felt like it was moving too quick, but the other part of me loved the shock factor of it since it happened so suddenly. I didnt think of it as too big of an issue though, it was still enjoyable to read.
The whole encounter with the peasant guy made me wonder just how many more people there are like him, that dislike the Ackermans and would try to kill them. And whether y/n would be one of them. Also I got a bit confused as to who was speaking whether it was Farlan or Levi, but I read the sentence again and it was fine, I understood, so maybe I was just being a dumb bitch.
Oooh a quick point Levi sympathising with the criminal was really touching and made me feel warm and gooey. It shows that hes not a dick and does actually care about his people. But it also shows he has clear boundaries and is really firm. He will make a great leader in the future.
YESSS BODYGUARD ERWINNN!!!!! I WAS LITERALLY TELLING MY FRIEND THE OTHER DAY, ERWIN AND LEVI BODYGUARD AU IS THE BESTT. YES SWEETIE UGH ITS FANTASTIC. IVE SAID THIS BEFORE BUT IM SAYING IT AGAIN I LOVE IT.
Carrying on, I love the whole Erwin/Levi/Farlan interaction, of course Erwin knows everything, why wouldnt he, hes a boss ass bitch. Also again, reaffirming that Levi does not want a wife, nOicE. Really builds up his future development.
The difference in Levi's and Farlan's reaction is comical. Ones there waving and smiling and the other ones there like fuck off leave me alone. ALSO WHOEVER SAID THEY'LL GIVE UP THEIR VIRGINTY SAME GURLL SAMEEE, I WOULD TOO YOURE NOT ALONE. AND YES FARLAN IT IS FUNNY, IT MADE ME LAUGH.
Awww the people are so nice, offering things for free, that's how you know you're loved by your people, I rate it, rate Levi sm.
Okay my guy, imma need you stop for a second and relax. Taking your top of??? And your scarf??? Okay big man, I see you, I see you, looking fine af. Ahhh I love imagining this in my brain, so stimulating.
Anyways, Y/N'S HERE NOWWW YES BITCHHH IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE, TURN IT UPPPP.
Nanaba being my sister is absolutely exquisite *chefs kiss*. I really thought you'd maybe put Petra, and then Petra would like Levi as well, but no its Nanaba and I fucking love her so so much. Also not really relevant, but I dont have any older sisters, but I do have older cousin sisters and I call my favourite one didi mooni (I think that's how you spell it, or muni idk) and yeah it just reminded me of her. I haven't seen her in so so long because of the pandemic and I miss her :(
Ah. So. Y/N does hate the royals. I wanna know why?? Does she think they're overrated?? A bad experience maybe?? Everyone else seems to love them. I'll just have to wait and see I guess.
ALSO PLEASE TELL ME THE LITTLE KID WAS MIKASA!!! IM HOPING SO SO MUCH ITS MIKASA, IT PROBABLY ISNT BECAUSE SHES AN ACKERMAN HERSELF BUT I CAN STILL HOPE!!! SHES SO CUTEEE AND ADORABLE AWWWW WEVIIII 🥺🥺🥺
THEY SELL TEAAA AHHH ITS A LOVE STORY BOUND TO HAPPEN. AND HE HASNT TRIED THEM YETT!!!! YES OMGGG TEA DATES, THEY CAN BOTH SIT DOW AND SHE CAN INTRODUCE HIM TO NEW SHITT AHHHH MY HEARTTTT 🥰🥰🥰IM GETTING WAYYYY AHEAD OF MYSELF.I need to calm down.
The whole meeting with Levi and Y/N was so adorable. It felt really short and I want more, but its okayyy, hopefully there are more chapters. Them locking eyes, him following her to get the leaves, HIM HELPING HER PICK UP THE BLOODY LEAVES, THE HAIR PART REMINDS ME OF IN BOLLYWOOD MOVIES WHEN THE PROTAGS HAIR GETS STUCK IN THE GUYS WATCH OR THEIR DUPATTA OR SOMETHING. OMGG Y/N IS ONE LUCKY BITCH.
Also since you havent specified the race of y/n, just wanted to ask is she Indian?? Or it it unspecified?? You wrote that she blushed bright red and many dark skinned readers wont be able relate. So yeah I'm not too sure whether that was intentional or not, I'm sorry if I'm mistaken though. I mean no harm at all.
Farlan's relationship with Levi is just beautiful, like I know I'm using the word beautiful a lot, but their broship is immaculate. Something else that I love.
Both Levi and Y/N not wanting to get married is hilarious. I really like how you've characterised her, shes really fierce, independent and seems really kind and caring as well. I really like this Y/N, very family oriented.
If I was her dad I would've taken the money. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️ Not complaining about it because my dad would've done the exact same thing, but if I was him I wouldve taken it. Sis is broke, sis needs all the money she can get.
Both parties questioning Levi and Y/N is hilarious, fucking Erwin, I love him so much I stg. I'd sacrifice my life for him. Hes best boy 😇😇
I feel like this is really really long already so I'll quickly sum everything up, if you got this far you deserve a clap on the back and a medal, because I've basically just waffled. I really really enjoyed this chapter, it was very good in terms of introductions and getting to know the characters, I loved the initial meeting between levi and y/n and it did make my heart flutter quite a bit so that's that. I dont have any complaints really, just small minor things I've mentioned before and that's it. I really look forward to the coming chapters!!! Thank you so so much for writing it. Please make sure you're taking regular breaks and keeping hydrated and healthy. Thanks sweetie xxx 🥰🥰🥰
I’ve read this WHOLE thing..twice. I can’t stop smiling omf you’re so sweet! But, yeah minor shit I didn’t mention and I left it up to reader. Like the skin tone, sheesh. I don’t want any problems with that, I just said red blush to signify embarrassment. Reader is reader no matter what.
Aren’t we all broke af? But I liked the idea of the father being humble about it. Lol. Idk.
I don’t want to get into too much detail because that will obviously ruin the story but I love your ideas. Tea dates?! How cute! Erwin is the best, of course. He knows ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and he’s the kind of person who would follow his princes no matter what. Till the end, you know?
As I said, highly inspired by Bollywood movies lol.
You took your time and wrote all of this and I’m so fucking happy that you did. I can’t wait for all of you to see the upcoming chapters. I hope that you’re staying happy and hydrated as well. Also, happy Shivratri! (If you celebrate for it) and to everyone else celebrating.

• oh god ned, HOW MUCH SNOOPING”
• “enough to know that you have a weird obsession with that spider guy and that your last name isnt smith”
• so you told him the truth. you were a stark
• and well,,, he reacted with
• “okay cmon,,, don’t lie”
• so you showed him your late night dance parties with Nat when she was feeling goofy
• and your random snaps of steve when he was trying to figure out how to work technology
• videos of you reacting to vines with bucky
(if yall wanna see domestic life with the avengers just lmk)
• which usually results with THE WINTER SOLDIER ALMOST PEEING HIS PANTS. and trying to reenact it with sam or the other avengers
• “heyheyehy y/n guess what?”
• “what bucky?” *is in the middle of doing hw*
• “FRESHOVACADO” *bolts out of the room before you throw something at him*

• “t’s nothing. dont worry ab it”
• “peter cmon, it’s just me”
• you figured maybe it had to do with ben??? but you gave him his space. you just wanted to be there for him yanno. you didnt want him to shut you out
• “Y/N I SAID ITS NOTHING. FOR FUCKS SAKE CAN YOU LEAVE ME ALONE???” he snapped (and not in the good way)
• and this was on your way to class so the whole hallway heard
• ouch
• so you left him alone. probably more than he meant. but it hurt
• i mean he was your first friend here, and now he yelled at you to leave you alone
• ned felt awful at first. trying to comfort you and tell you it wasnt your fault
• but then he started acting weird. whenever you brought up peter hed be super antsy about it
• you- “i think he got into another fight or something”
• ned- “pFFT PETER? FIGHTING? no way,,, i got-i gotta go”
• so you figured that whatever peter was hiding, ned knew about,, which also hurt your feelings
• so you closed off
• and wow could the super family tell something was wrong

• thor- “lady y/n what is causing you distress? not once have you smiled, i even wore my hair in pigtails,,, and that seems to always do the trick”
• and you gave the same response every time “‘m just tired” “lots of homework”
• they noticed you werent going out on weekends anymore
• so tony figured that your friend group and you were having some Stuff
• pep gave him an idea of meeting his new prodigy
• now tony knew it’d be kinda sus because peter went to midtown but he figured that if the kid kept his mask on it’d be fine
• “dad i don’t wanna see another one of your weird maid robots”
• “wha- no i want you to meet someone”
• “dad college isn’t for another 2 years. if it’s your friend from MIT-“
• then right before your eyes was the insect boy that youve been admiring through the internet
• needless to say
• your jaw dripped
• “y/n meet spiderling, spiderling meet my daughter y/n stark”
• *seconds pass*
• “i uh- oH- um- sp-spidERman, h-hi. biG fan of you- your work”

• *yelling at each other for another minute. even though you couldnt hear what the other is saying*
• you- *yelling loudest “I DIDNT WANT YOU TO SEE ME DIFFERENTLY OKAY”
• peter- “you really thought id do that?” (heartbreaking voice)
• you- “i- once i got to know you, i knew you wouldnt but i was scared. i didn’t know how to tell you. for once in my life i had found someone my age who liked ME for ME. not for my name or money or my dad. and i didn’t want to change that. i’m sorry i didn’t tell you sooner”
• peter- “... i get what you mean. after ben died everyone gave me that look. except you and ned.”
• you- “why didn’t you tell me”
• peter- “everyone i love or ever cared about dies. my parents and then my uncle ben. so once i got my abilities i knew that the risk was even higher and i didn’t want to put you in that position. i wanted to keep you safe. but it seems like you know how to handle yourself” (referring to the fact that you grew up with THE EARTHS MIGHTIEST HEROS)

Ok, so I'd like to update my take on the Ghostbusters 2016 vs Ghostbusters: Afterlife situation.
Last time I spoke with @veronica-rich , I'd like to point out that I hadn't fully realized the details of the 2016 film. I went and rewatched it, and I'd like to add more to my thoughts.
First, the film isnt as bad as some people would suggest. There were good moments I like the comedy that comes from Holtzman and Chris Hemsworths character (his name escapes me rn), there were some strong ideas present and it wss actually an ok film.
BUT
I would also like to point out the flaws of the film. And to clarify. None of these have anything to do with the fact that's it's a female version of the original, but I'll get to that in a moment.
The films as a whole is fine I don't hate it. But I have gripes. The first being the writing which, in all honesty, could have used some work. The pacing was slow compared to the original, despite having an almost parallel story format, with certain details shoved at random spots where they weren't needed or were necessary but not provided.
But there were small details I liked, like the bust of Egon in the background or Patty's uncle being one of the original Ghostbusters cast members. Bill Murray as a "antagonist" to rile iPhone of the main characters was, in my opinion, unneeded as a reference to the original film. The bust of Egon, Dan Akkroyd as the cabbie, and Ernie Hudson as the uncle were nice details. But Bill Murray and even Signorney Weaver were both just kinda unneeded. Personally, I think it wouldve been better to have say Rick Moranis somewhere in the film might've been funnier, whereas Ms. Weaver and Bill Murray I felt like were there for the popularity aspect.
And let's not forget Annie Potts as the receptionist in both films which, honestly was probably my favorite special guest from the original.
But now the plot.
Ima say it, it was predictable. The original film had an engaging plot that I always found fun to watch. And in the beginning the new film wss in fact, fun to watch. But when the villain killed himself on his device I think it just got predictable. Using himself as a sort of undead conduit to further his plan, him turning into the evil version of the logo, even Slimer driving the Ecto-1 into the vortex that wss predictable. It all just felt kinda simple and, yeah it's movie not a Shakespearean Play, but it can have a few more twists and turns to make it interesting.
Also I very much enjoyed the big goofy dance scene with the soldiers it reminded me of the big Cuban Pete scene from The Mask.
Now the ending however...
That was bad.
The final action scene was genuinly boring to watch I couldnt get into it, best part might've been when the green gargoyle thing got shredded. The squishing of everyone by the StayPuff Marshmellow man wss kinda funny but eh.
The confrontation with the antagonist was... ok. Now, I LOVE this idea of the final ghost being an evil riff of the Mascot, that was awesome and funny and I enjoyed that part. Everything else, not so much. The way they fought him was boring it just felt like a slow Kaiju fight to me. And the way they beat him is just... uncalled for. I can enjoy grossout humor or an occasional gross joke I live off crass humor the joke in the beginning with the fart coming from the front wss one of my favorites. But shooting him in the dick that just... I get it'll make most men weakened I get it but gah...
No other gripes with the plot honestly, other than too many gaps.
Now some smaller details I'd like to point out, I'm just gonna list em quick fire.
Too many references it felt lo like they're were just trying to shove as much Ghostbusters shit in the viewers face it was just kinda annoying after awhile.
Some grossout humor is fine but certain bits like the over the top puke scene actually made me feel uncomfortable and not in a funny way.
The way they used Slimer wss fine but trying to introduce a random Female Version wss just kinda weird.
Ima say it, the black chick wasnt as funny to me she had a few good jokes but she was eh.
The Zuul reference at the end just annoyed me for some reason. The entire plot was one big riff of the original with the person breaking the barrier, ghosts running rampant, the spooky ghost chick in the beginning, even something as simple as the scene in the train tunnel it was all frame for frame practically. If yoire gonna copy the whole plot just use Zuul and replace Stay Puff with the ghost Mascot.
Now, to adress the elephant in the room. Gender debate. This film is without hesitation, meant for the female and feminist audience. But to say it does not care about the other side of the demographic and is 100 percent against men isnt fully true. Like I said the ending it a litteral and figurative jab at men, and it shows throughout the film. Men are treated like a joke, the Major is am idiot with his female secretary doing most his job. Hell No Men Beyond this Point was nicer to men than this film was, and that showed Men as a LITTERAL MINORITY essentially.
And I won't be the first to admit that Chris Hemsworth is really funny as a dumb blonde I'll say it yeah, but making every other men an absolute tool was kinda unneeded. Even the cops and the people who ran the universities were basically made out to be self righteous alpha males, which can be excused as to further the plot, but it wouldve been better off just making the mayor and cops women, making the mayors secretary a man who believed in them, and even make the college professors women or at the very least make them semi understanding in their actions I get we're meant to hate them and you don't need to make them likeable, but at least make them a bit less alpha male.
I'm gonna say it one more time. I think this film is actually ok and it doesn't deserve as much hate as it gets, gender debate aside it litterally is just a female retelling of the original film.
Do I think it could've used some work? Yeah.
Do I think people should be a bit more understanding about it? Yeah.
Do I think it deserves a sequel? No not in the slightest.
This is ok yeah, but it by no means deserves a continuation. Take away the fact it's a reboot and take away the gender debate, and look at it as just some movie that exists and accept it normal flaws as a normal film.
And I personally think that it genuinely does not deserve a second film. It was ok but it was by no means sequel worthy. And honestly I am excited because the original two films earned a third film. And I'm happy to see a new film come from the son of the original director.
And that's all this film is, isnt it? A letter from a son to his father, saying "Hey I really enjoyed the story you told, and I'm sad you didnt get to finish it. Why don't I finish it for you? I'll treat it well dont worry."
I also will say this to those who plan on hating the new film just because they didnt make a sequel for the 2016 version, then by all means, grow up.
In the end it's all just a film so just learn to enjoy it. And stop hating films before they've even hit theaters. And that goes on both sides of the argument.

i realize that reality tv isnt really contemporaneous to the setting but i personally find the idea of draco learning what tv is and becoming obsessed with like real housewives or something extremely funny, & also the idea that he wouldn't understand that you can't talk to a movie like a wizard painting, would love to hear your #thoughts lol
this is something i see a lot and i think it’s like cute and funny but ultimately not how i see things playing out so much
i guess it depends on when this would be happening; i feel like if draco is in a place (interally) where he can appreciate any level of muggle technology, esp something like trashy tv or just tv in general, i feel like he wouldve done enough research or asked enough questions by the time he was actually in front of one that he would understand that you can’t talk to a tv screen and have the people hear and interact with you 
RON, however, i can totally see like squinting and going up and knocking on the screen, and harry looks at hermione and is like “er, you told him it doesn’t work like that, right” and she rolls her eyes and is like “of course i did, since when does he listen to me” and ron is just tapping on the tv and is like “i know you guys can hear me! that’s not what werewolves even look like!”
although if draco like accidentally happened upon one in public as a kid or whatever i can see him making the mistake but quickly realizing and getting the fuck out before anyone notices the weirdo yelling at the tv
as far as real housewives, i do think draco would find it funny but i also think it would remind him too much of his mother lol #baggage
like regardless of what his post-war relationship w narcissa is like i think it would make him think too much about like...extravagance and spectacle and like, if wizards had tv and there was a real housewives of magical britain, would his mother have been on it? (no, he’d think, of course she wouldn’t, she’s much too dignified....but consider: what better way to parade the malfoy family’s wealth and status around so the rest of wizarding society knows who’s above them?)
i think he would be fascinated by shows like how it’s made and just documentaries in general about things that interest him, esp muggle things, and he’d constantly go around citing random facts he’d learned (”ooh, you bought pasta! did you know a pasta machine can cut 12,000 pieces of rotini per minute?”) which harry finds incredibly endearing even though he isn’t super interested in the info itself
i mean i do think he’d also like quality tv and movies but i think with this new amazing tool at his disposal he’d want to use it primarily as a way to access all the other information that had been hidden from him/that he hadn’t even known to wonder about growing up, and in fact would probably judge people for watching dumb or trashy shit (”really, weasley? an entire world of information at your disposal, and you’d rather watch a bunch of idiots trapped in a house”)
he might occasionally watch sports w harry and ron but thinks muggle sports are dumb and once made the mistake of saying so in front of dean, who launched into a passionate and maybe not so nice rant about how quidditch doesn’t even make sense, and at least there isn’t one player on a football team who wins or loses the game for everyone else and pretty much makes it so that nobody else on the team matters, and obviously you’d prefer quidditch, malfoy, since you’re a seeker (no offense, harry), but if you can’t recognize that it doesn’t actually make sense then you have no right to be calling football dumb, and—
