You think the Miracle Kids ever get annoyed that there is just merch of them? Like since they have secret identities, their hero forms are in the public domain so anyone can use and make merch for the heroes. But the kids will never see a cent of the profits made from that.

Like imagine struggling to pay for college, then you see that a company has made record profits from selling your likeness. And there is literally nothing you can do about it without putting yourself and your family at risk.

even if i didnt love botw as much as i do, totk drives me nuts bc, similarly to pokemon, this series is so SO SO full of potential, they have so many games they can pull from, theres so many themes, characters and worldbuilding thats just left to rot, you dont need to connect anything with a chain to old titles, you dont need to bring back any things that already had their ending, but PLEASE harness at least a fraction of all this!!!! and they just refuse to do it beyond shallow references

totk jsut drives it all home to me, bc this isnt just the next game in the franchise, but a DIRECT SEQUEL no 10 years apart from botw, yet they cant even, they REFUSE to even keep the continuity with its OWN lore it established in botw together, and that, i think, is what truly makes me so insane (derogatory) about totk

it PROVES they do not care, they dont care to build on anything of the lore of old titles beyond references in form of amiibos or whatever, they dont even care to make a sequel to their most successful game in the franchise coherent with its own lore

botw established a captivating detailed world full of potential, while lacking in active storytelling, it had environmental storytelling, characters and ideas that were the perfect ground to build on-

and then they do away with it bc idk .. they want you to build mechs and make videos of it that go viral and thats all they care about or something

shiekah tech? forget that existed character being the character you know? act as if you are seeing them for the first time just like they are lame story? dont think about that just be distracted by the epic presentation of it lore the previous title established? forget that, all that matters is what is here and now beloved character from old games beign brought back? hes a new guy and has no background and no lore and just sits waiting for you at the end to have a flashy fight with references from old titles and their lore? just here for nostalgie bait, dont you remember? you LOVE this series, now give me 70 bucks for a glorified DLC that ruins what you loved about the series and makes you realize that nothign matters and nothing is interesting anymore

you are supposed to take it all at face value, to not think about anything, to see a character say something and just go with it, and forget it the second its over, be distracted by good music and pretty visuals, but dont think about, dont think about anything but what is directly said to you like you have no critical thinking skills, forget there was a game before this one, only the one you play matters, empty your skull and dont let yourself feel anything but what the game tells you to feel

if they dont even care to make the sequel to their most successful game actually build on the previous title, dont even care to keep their continuity of two games supposedly directly happening one after the other in tact- maybe they never cared, and all the meaning we thought we saw them build into their games was all accidental and meaningless

and that is absolutely soul crushing for fans like me to discover

its a game. its not a story, its not a world, its not themes, its not characters, its not lore. its a product made to make you pay money, not to make you think about anything.

Luke and Ryan both used "to the core" describing the closeness of their relationships (Polin and Buddie)

Nicola and Oliver both said they had natural chemistry with their co-star (Nicola saying they stopped repressing it, Oliver saying they just let it flow)

Now 911 is posting bees for next season!What in the friends-to-lovers is going on!!

Funny green guy we meet again

[maxphilippa]

rewatching s1 is so funny because people say "oh but nickel didn't have reasons to hate balloon" but on s1 there's like. a whole 2 minute segment dedicated to show how much of an asshole balloon was. and like. nickel was actually the most reasonable balloon hater. like not to be that guy but at least nickel didn't make fatphobic remarks to him and killed him whenever he had the chance. that's something pickle, bomb, paintbrush and a good portion of the rest of the contestants on s1 did. like balloon explicitly said on s1 that an alliance is basically something he can take advantage of. of course nickel wouldn't want that guy on his alliance y'know. like nickel does believe balloon wants to change but. he also DID see how awful balloon was to his alliance back on s1. it's reasonable that he tries to push him away. who knows if something like s1 happens again. like that's reasonable. the rest of the hotel oj residents just hated balloon for existing and even left a party just because he was there. oj sent him outside in the cold rain with an umbrella ig but like. still an asshole move y'know.

nickel wanted to protect his alliance and gets shitted on for that (despite him apologizing explicitly to balloon on s3 later on) but i never saw anyone helding the rest of the characters accountable for what they did to balloon. like yeah nickel was terrible but those other guys aren't saints

also mephone4 has axes too and killed oj with them on purpose so that's also fun

if there’s one thing abt me it’s that i will not shut up abt the way the same ppl who’d hailed carlos as the next big thing had discarded him the second he had a dip in form. all at the tender age of too fucking young to be swimming in these expectations

idk idk i hate the pressure that sports puts on young athletes like! let them grow! let them develop! stop tossing them around the media storm in their developmental years!

NO I AM NOT OKAY. IF THIS PERSON WHO DID IT IS SOMEONE WHO FOLLOWS ME TAKE IT FREAKING DOWN. I NEVER GAVE PERMISSION FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND NEVER WILL.

If someone knows about this fic. Please please please I beg you please send a link to me so that I could report it. If I remember correctly it is only the author who could report something being stolen on wattpad. (The story they took from is one of my original works that is Just One Drop) And please if you do know or if you find out don't go attacking this person.

Thinking of this bit in Scorpia and honestly it's still one of my favourite Alex lines

Oh, great! Problem sol-

wait what

People who don't want Nickel & Suitcase to make up realize that they're the two most important people to Balloon right. They realize that them not making up would cause a lot of unnecessary conflict between the three. Right? Like do you really want Balloon and Suitcase to have conflict no no one wants that

I feel like a regular occurrence in camp is someone leaving to get recourses with Wes and they return without him and either wickerbottom or wilson just sigh and go “did he get lost again?” And need to go out and get him

started thinking about the okipara museum artwork and i just realized what flower 18!kara is holding in it.

those are alstroemeria, which can mean perseverance and yearning for the future in hanakotoba....
