#it's canon-flexible

[pussiesoutforsatan]

hey so. did anyone ever make the observation that we know Copia's EXACT date of birth?

The music video for Kiss the Go-Goat happens on Saturday September 13th 1969

If Sister Imperator is indeed already pregnant there, 9 months later would be May of 1970. And the game Escape The Ministry (which i feel like we all forgot about way too quickly) confirms that Copia's birthday is on May 19th (If you don't remember that game, you're playing as the renovation is happening and at the very end you find out it's Copia's birthday and you have to leave a card for him.)

This would make Copia's exact date of birth May 19th 1970, and he is currently 54 years old.

EDIT : HEY turns out i was super wrong i did a second post about it im very sorry. tldr that date is completely false, the end of that game is not about Copia's birthday

I have this headcanon that Wild is just incredibly flexible, and the chain only finds out when they’ve bent themselves into a pretzel one morning.

Wild: literally bent in half

The Entire Chain: What the f u c k.

And Twilight knows and is just sitting somewhere, going ‘oh,this is normal.’

My reasoning for this you ask? Well, Wild can do entire BACKFLIPS fresh out of the shrine, which indicated at some point they must have done some sort of flexibility exercises pre-calamity. Now they can just… bend? And yes, they use this far too often to scare the everloving shit out of anyone they can find.

Absolutely unhinged hot take

I know that like. Technologically, it makes NO sense to have video game systems, but hear me out here.

Cross Guild gets contacted by a smuggling black market business for a partnership between goals. It would be mutually beneficial. Crocodile handles most of the meeting, between his general demeanor and also because he knows the boss of the other group from his Baroque Works days. The guy offers a gift as a sign of good will, a VERY expensive gift at that to demonstrate his ability to perform and make profit. It's essentially a flex on his part.

Croc can't actually decline it, lest he be rude. He also can't throw it away. Ergo, he makes a show of passing it off to Buggy.

The item in question? A specialty made game system designed for entertainment. It's got the same viewing and audio capabilities as the transponder snails, but it offers far more - interactive tech, a plethora of game options, etc. These things are RIDICULOUSLY expensive, circulating only in the highest echelons of society.

Buggy has always wanted to get his hands on one. After the meeting, Buggy and smuggler boss man discuss the system- Buggy quite bluntly asks if they have schematics of them. Smuggler nods, and offers one to Buggy with a charming smile. "On the house for a lovely man such as yourself."

Buggy, blinded by his own excitement of a New Toy To Tinker With, completely misses Croc and Mihawk tensing with dark scowls.

They manage to interject themselves into the exchange, and later on,Crocodile asks Buggy to 'set the damned thing up'. They tease him lightly for being a nerd, but they remain as he browses the catalog.theyfind a dance game. Buggy thinks it sounds fun.

He plays it.

He absolutely KILLS IT.

He stands there in his tight little yoga capris and crop top, hair almost windswept, cheeks pink, a light sheen of sweat, absolutely beaming.

Mihawk and Crococodile are white knuckling their pants legs or the armrest respectively.

Buggy now has a new fun pass time!

Croc and Hawk, meanwhile, have a few realizations, crises, and a love-hate relationship brewing with a little game system.

In my brain, one of the hms is buff, one is chubby and one is built like a twig but which is which changes every time I think about them

[sukunasweetheart]

Thoughts and analysis + rambling on sukuna's character! JJK anime AND manga spoilers below. Pls read with compassion, im not great at articulating my complicated thoughts 🙏

When sukuna told jogo that he shouldve just burned down everything he desired to without worrying abt identity or the future, sukuna was most likely referring to himself,, thats probably how he became so strong

Gege outright said in the official fanbook that its questionable whether the people around him ever considered sukuna human and that he himself most likely didn't think so either. He was nicknamed the king of curses before he even became a cursed object, so sukuna really didnt give a damn abt what he was, or whatever nickname he was given and he just kept doing what he was doing

And he's never referred to himself as the king of curses, it was always the people around him or the literal narrator! Even the famous quote "throughout the heavens and the earth, he alone is the honoured one" was said by the narrator, or by nanami in the season one anime. Not once has sukuna needed to introduce himself to someone, they already knew who he was and/or there was really no need to, since he was going to kill them anyway.

The idea of cannibalism isnt a big deal at all to him, its kind of like a complete and final line where he really crosses over into the non-human area, he literally views everyone else around him as something akin to either a thing to toy around with or to eat.

And this involvement of "cannibalism" is actually very interesting to me, because if he doesnt consider himself human, and other people didn't believe so either, is it really cannibalism? Gege seems to blur these kinds of lines with sukuna so incredibly! Sukuna is always drafting between human and nonhuman, life and death, the honoured one and the disgraced one. He's like everything all at once.

Though his trueform may have extra limbs and mouth, in my opinion he still looks and functions mostly like a human... yet theres also many moments where we realise that he really is far away from the rest of the cast, both in strength and thought.

To show evidence of sukuna drifting between life and death, I'd like to mention how he has spoken soul-to-soul with characters right before their death TWICE now, first being jogo and the other being kashimo... this isnt a coincidence! How was he able to do this? We have no clue, perhaps jogo + kashimo were only hallucinating or maybe sukuna really is able to have a lil chat with someone right before they die like some grim reaper 😭

I think this is what makes him a really poetic character, the way speaks is one thing, but to watch him really reach out and have a conversation with his opponent while they are in a very vulnerable state makes him really like a otherworldly figure (even though he slaughters them right atfter).

He's not a human yet he is still capable of understanding the desires that humans have, and their goals.

I believe sukuna is a really complex and flexible character, I've never really seen someone be so many things at once. He can be serious, strict, playful, goofy, evil with only the tiniest hints of compassion and many more...

Saw a post. Got to thinking. Am now wondering how my interpretation of characters differs from the canon, and how much of that is:

Deliberate and reasonable: in a 'fighting against canon-authorial biases' way (e.g. taking queer-coded characters to actually queer, addressing the religious stereotypes and racism baked into certain characters, expanding a female characters motivations in ways that don't match up to canon but do match up to Logical Thinking Human Behavior, updating language and slang to not include slurs, etc.)

Reasonable: in a 'yeah, I guess if you stretch your extrapolation of the canon, or focus on this part of the narrative, you can get there without contradicting the rest too much' kind of way

Deliberate: started nearly canon, and then 'ooc' but as an understandable result of the fic's events

Semi-Deliberate: kind of an art style thing, where it's definitely That Character, but through the author's specific style of dialogue and prose; author-tinted glasses, if you will

Semi-Deliberate: the author was trying, but kind of juggled too many things and you can tell that they slipped too far away from canon, and realized it, but didn't have the time/energy to fix it

Deliberate: different from canon, but within an acceptable standard deviation from the canon/mean

Deliberate: different from canon, in a sort of an AU-where-character-is-X, rather than just a different lens or the result of the fic events

Deliberate: ...but you should have honestly just made an OC, this is basically a different, new character

Probably not deliberate: different, but in a way that's kind of just. off-putting, and not particularly self-aware on the part of the author.

Feel free to reblog and have fun, and use this to talk about your own writing but DO NOT use this to vague and talk smack about other authors in your fandoms. Be Nice.

I’m so sorry beloveds, I haven’t drawn much lately. I’ve been working on a renkaza fic though! It’s about Akaza adapting to being human, if anyone’s interested !

Anyways, all I have to offer you are these quick sketches and doodles !

I saw some very fun poses on Pinterest and had to draw Akaza as them! Please ignore how sketchy they are, I haven’t cleaned them up too much ! The first doodle is very important to me, I know Akaza loves yapping and it gets on kyo’s nerves before they get close and are no longer enemies. In that doodle I imagine Akaza had been trailing after (stalking and annoying) kyo for quite awhile now, and kyo has grown used to him. Less enemies but kyojuro wouldn’t call them friends ! (They are friends ) also the little Akaza head doodle is so precious to me he’s so cute, I love how he turned out there !

sporty suguru on my mind🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴

[cookiekat-legendaryklanceshipper]

all of my Pidge LGBTQ+ headcanons because they all work

Don’t take this too seriously this is mostly just super silliness

#1

lesbian.

#2

pansexual

#3

Scratch all that about attraction, what about aroace?

I began liking this headcanon when Pidge’s dad began to talk about how he and his mother met in comparison to her and Hunk's relationship and Pidge seems and seemed (for the most part) uninterested.*

#4

aro but no ace😞

#5

ace but no aro 😱

#6

trans (there are two categories for this)

FtM

becoming a man I see? Even a new name…? Transgender‼️🫵🔥🔥🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️/j

but seriously, Pidge did transition and theirs no harm headcanoning that their were more reasons than wanting to infiltrate the Garrison to find her dad and brother (w reason by the way that’s like so epic).*

FtNB

I mean Pidge quite literally cut his/her hair, pretended to be a guy for years, and then even after ‘coming out’ she didn’t know which bathroom to use*

#7

speaking of non-binary, non-binary.

#8

genderfluid?!

it works I swear I’m not projecting. The bathrooms scene, cutting hair, and going by Pidge rather than Katie but still using she/her but being (originally) fine with he/him (I mean yeah it was apart of the act but still), it’s pretty… it’s pretty… yeah. It’s pretty genderfluid if you ask me.*

#9

Demi-girl

#10

Demi-boy?!😱

#11

bi-gender 🔥🔥

all those months using he/him and originally she/her but still going by Pidge… it’s pretty.. it’s pretty… it works.*

————— I’ll work on explanations for the rest of these headcanons but most are pretty self explanatory. This was rushed I swear I’ll get back to it later 😓

my personal favorites are the FtNB, lesbian, and aroace ones

[syntiment]

I'm making my statement now because I've already gotten a comment about it but I HC all of the Bishops as being non-binary with interchangeable pronouns.

Shamura is they/she/he, Kallamar is he/she, Heket is they/she, Leshy is they/he/it, Narinder is he/they

So I will be referring to them by varying pronouns in my art and writing

[mekatrio]

sorry but im thinking abt the zelda's fandom obsession w "canon" again, cuz like imagine how ridiculous it would be if smth like say pokemon sorted their different medias by canon and non-canon like wouldnt that be kinda fucking dumb... what pkmn fans generally do instead is accept everything as its own existing canon and if theres contradictory info then theres contradictory info, bc like that is the nature of a franchise that will have multiple writers.. one writers interpretation is not more valuable / more "canon" than another so we list all of the interpretations down instead of what zelda fans prefer to do which is to.. cherry-pick the intrepretation they like more as 'canon' 😑

^ bulbapedia accepting the existence of multiple canons meanwhile the zelda wiki's idea of canon is based off.. personal interpretation + secondary sources. awesome

also this tidbit which is just.. lmfao

[becauseplot]

thinking about archivists again. below the cut: obscene amounts of brainrot in the form of a long-winded relationship study and oddly specific references to canon that may or may not be accurate

im trying to come up with some sort of au for them (writer's block and creative burnout is a BITCH it's okay though we stay silly) and there's just something about how qphil and qcellbit don't (or didn't) really wind up in each other's circles often. sure they were friendly with each other in passing, and they definitely had some nice little interactions earlier on: cellbit briefly interviewing phil on one of his first days on the island over a cup of coffee and solidifying phil's view of cellbit as the Dedicated Investigator; phil asking cellbit to babysit chayanne and tallulah while he's away on a trip and cellbit being more than happy to; phil briefly checking in with cellbit --- who was in the process of tumbling into his regret arc, cutting off ties with loved ones and making himself a martyr --- and asking if he was okay when phil spotted him hanging alone in the back of the group; chatting about the upcoming wedding and phil advising cellbit that he and roier should probably introduce some sort of dress code (lmao); cellbit watching phil and missa meet up for the first time in months on the way to the federation's people-freezers and all of the pieces rapidly falling into place (the name of phil's waystone, phil's skull backpack, phil's elusive "husband," ohhhhhhh...). they've always been in each other's peripheral, but never directly involved in each other's personal lives.

until the happy pills.

see the thing about archivists is that they're not drawn together by a pre-existing friendship; they're more friendly acquaintances at this point, perhaps almost-friends, though they're certainly not close. but then forever's life is under threat, and god, they both love forever immensely. with direct help from bad and indirect help from others (qpac you LEGEND), they're eventually able to formulate a plan that successfully drag forever out from under the haze of drugs, pull him to the surface. they sit next to each other as they sit at the bedside of their mutual friend, watch him breathing, and try to breathe themselves.

and from that moment on it's solidified: they know they can depend on each other, when shit hits the fan. they have their respective strengths, and they balance out each other nicely. i wish i had gotten more of a chance to watch their dynamic during purgatory 1 (unfortunately i have a life sadge) but from what i saw, they turned out to be some pretty good co-leaders, and an interesting dynamic at that: phil acting more as a support role (moral support, resource support, combat support, ALL the support) and stepping up into a leader-like role when needed, but ultimately letting cellbit take the helm a lot of the time since he's a strategist with more practice managing large groups of people (i wont get into it here, and i want to watch more vods so i can more properly analyze them but HOUGHH i have THOUGHTS!! SO MANY!!!)

what im trying to get at is that they were initially in the peripheral in each others lives but were eventually drawn together out of necessity, due to circumstances. the mutual respect followed, which was then followed by trust, and then collaboration, and then friendship. i've also made this post talking about their dynamic, how they both understand each other's need to focus on the here and now and understand that they don't need to know every little thing about each other to still trust each other. and this is so integral to their relationship. it's what makes archivists archivists.

so now all that's left for me to do is try to come up with some sort of au i can chuck them in, incorporating this idea of "friendship of necessity" as a core feature of the plot. i have scattered ideas but none are particularly appealing or solid enough. i will try though!! if u have any suggestions/thoughts/ideas feel free to leave a comment or say in tags (pspsppsps come brainrot with meeee)
