ngl its wild seeing people say toshiro's reaction to chimera falin was because she was not longer "palatable" to him like yeah i would be freaking the fuck out if my former party members' attempt to save someone important to us turned her into a murderous chimera on a rampage who just killed all of our party members in front of us and only barely had any traces of herself left in her. i WOULD want to, y'know, let her rest instead of attempting to defy death by further mangling her beyond comprehension because these people have shown they have no idea what they're doing and have apparently caused a fate worse than death for her. it's pretty much just the flip side of the coin and "letting falin go" is, in fact, a lesson the crew has to learn by the end

i don't think faligon is falin's "true nature", i think it's an extreme end consequence of her issues: one where she has little free will, is on complete autopilot, and is controlled by another person.

*please note that aelynn has vision powers that allow her to see everything, including through masks/blood colour/mutations etc so if i don't know the character you might want to mention it so that aelynn takes it into consideration

appreciation post for elayne the queen. elayne the politician who is incredibly competent, who is very very good at remaining calm in a crisis and remaining diplomatic in a conflict. second-half-of-series elayne who's grown into a wise and mature leader, who is grounded and practical but still has the same fierce heart she's always had, who feels things so deeply yet manages to set her personal feelings aside in favor of focusing on the bigger picture. who does take big risks, yes, but they're always calculated and planned out in advance, even if they don't always pan out as she'd hoped.

i feel like most elayne appreciation posts are about her comic relief value and ~loony tunes~ energy, or about elayne the aes sedai and her mad scientist tendencies, but To Me elayne the queen is the true heart of her character and the version of herself that she ultimately chooses to be by the end of the series, and it often feels underrated even by her fans. she always gets painted as a disaster, and she certainly has her disaster moments, but at her core, this woman is as distinguished as they come!

So I came across these I just want ur input in them cos to me it like she being totally ignored while michael is talking to cate blancette like her face looked like she pissed and annoyed here like she looked on the red carpet and this was backstage

Hi there! I've had a few people send me these pictures (and also Asks about other Michael/AL pictures, which I will answer separately). Let me put up the full size versions of these first so that we can discuss:

Obviously we are missing some context for this or why Michael is talking to Cate Blanchett, but what immediately came to mind was that Cate was in season 2 of Staged:

...And so this seems like it would've been a nice reunion between the two of them, and a chance for Michael to talk to a professional and fellow actor with whom he has actual things in common.

Like you said, this is happening backstage, so clearly Michael had some opportunity to go there at a certain point, and the feeling I get from the pictures is one of Anna tagging along. It's strange, too, because she was obviously also in Staged, but it appears that AL and Cate had nothing to talk about, and that she is not a part of this conversation (especially given that Michael seems to be unconsciously blocking her with his body, thereby physically cutting her off from engaging with Cate).

The other component of this is what you mentioned about her expression, which is similar to how bored AL appeared on the red carpet. Here, though, there also seems to be an added layer of annoyance, as if Anna is irritated that Michael is not paying attention to her, which is augmented by the fact that she is specifically staring daggers at him, rather than Cate. So I get the feeling that Michael either said or did something AL disliked, or he didn't say anything at all--didn't introduce her to another famous actor--and that is what she disliked.

Whatever the case may be, I can't imagine it must've been too comfortable for Cate to have Anna sitting behind Michael staring like that the entire time. It comes across as rude and disrespectful, as if Michael's only purpose is to help convince everyone that she belongs there...but when he talks to someone like Cate in front of her, it becomes painfully obvious that is not the case.

Those are my observations, for whatever they may be worth. I'd be glad to hear from my followers as well, whether you agree or disagree. Thanks for writing in! x

okay i need feedback from the autism mentall illness website um. this is going to read like an AITA post. brother vs half-sister (who are currently my dependents do to their own individual disabilities + ptsd/depression) spat i will skim the details on but i'm worried my sister will discount my take since i'm not autistic myself so. am i crazy to call it ableist to look at an autistic person (23) who is clearly going through it dealing w long term depression, a world that doesn't give a shit abt him, unemployment, very self-isolated and burnt out barely leaving his room because the world is an ableist dumpster fire with zero opportunities for him, and then bring up childhood abuse he's suffered and his diagnosis as reasonable factors on top of this to worry he'll [checks notes] abuse my cat just to hurt me or even worse have a breakdown and kill me and his other sibling in a violent episode, a train of thought i probably wouldn't even be having were he not [checks notes] mad at me for the first time in my life?

like i don't have any other read on this kind of fear-based characterization other than ableism. like those are very real things in his life but she never points out any current violent behavior, of which there are none, only the one (1) instance of him lashing out when he was like 14 and Officially Diagnosed Low Empathy she thinks is a concern and Hateful Looks toward her since he stopped getting along with her, that's it. i tried explaining to her why i, someone who's lived w him his entire life, can vouch for how unlikely he is to do anything like that, especially when it's again not based on anything he's actually currently doing except for isolating in a way that is much more indicative of him potentially being a danger to himself than anyone else, and being cold towards her specifically, and i thought she had let it go, but when i brought it up off-hand in a conversation tangentially related, she continued to defend and justify her Concern about the potential directions his behavior could lead to because [checks notes] other people in similar situations have lashed out and killed their entire families according to. true crime books or videos she's watched on youtube as far as i'm aware. ignoring the fact that her and i have had the same or Worse childhood abuse and have acted similarly isolated in the past, or for her literally just as currently as him, and she's not expressed any worry past or present about either of us doing anything like that, in my opinion obviously because i haven't cut her off due to our differences like he decided to. like am i big sibling biased because this is pissing me off so bad.

Carmilla: rants about there being discrimination against women in Dracula's court

Meanwhile

Dracula when Carmilla insults him and his dead wife in front of everyone: Well ok I'll let it slide

Dracula when Godbrand makes a valid point: The fuck did you say to me you fuck!?

Well there's discrimination all right

clearly, Dracula jugs that Respect Woman Juice because he's such a loving husbando <3 /s

I'll never be over Carmilla's out of nowhere "There are perhaps four other women in this castle and they all glare from the edges, either disempowered by posturing man-children or too paralysed by sheer fucking rage to do anything"

one, there are only three women in the castle, Carmilla being one of them. two, ah yes, the sheer fucking rage of the most tragic victims of sexism in the story, these randos right here

I remember when they were about to save the day, but the Evil Penis-Endowed Men told them to shut up and cook blood in the kitchen because they're just women <3

well I would remember, if they bothered to be characters.

Then again, NFCV's idea of showing Carmilla's abuse at the hands of a man is a flashback that only depicts her killing her master like a true #girlboss, because god forbid we see her in any other light. Why bother actually showing us the pain she went through and fuels her ever-growing rage, when she can just talk about how she deserves to take stuff from stupid old men like the most shallow parody of a radfem? 🙃

something something the abused woman is always shown in a strong light and are only told in passing of her weak moments such as her having nightmares (?), while the abused men are humiliated and fetishized. gotta do the big think on this 🤔

baffling decision for season 2, episode 18 to end with lewis making a legit effort for charlotte, making a picnic of things she likes and hugging her and seeming really happy with her

only for episode 19 to trample all over that with him blowing her off after she mentions that she misses him and hasn't seen him for a while, then apparently forgetting he even has a girlfriend altogether and softly flirting with his ex while the narrative agrees that this is correct because, unlike charlotte, cleo always smiles when she first sees lewis. you know. unlike charlotte. who goes out of her way to try and make lewis happy and smiles literally every time she sees him. there's not even an episode between these!

fowlham (where Randy and Teresa walk in the park and drink coffee and then watch the sun set ) randy and theresa they no love LGBT ( they heterosexual and Straight ) a at the end of the fanfiction, you can make an art where Randy confessed his love to Teresa and made her a marriage proposal when the moon appeared in the sky

okay, so- first of all: i cannot draw which means this isn't getting art and well, i don't take art reqs, but sure let's write this puppy up (/lh) and see what we can make of it!

Headcanons for Domestic Fowlham (at the Park)

Randy is the one who would invite Theresa to the park. For what it's worth, he knows his role as the Ninja takes up a lot of his time and he wants to make it up to her

I don't see Theresa as a coffee drinker, but she does enjoy hot chocolate and you know Randy would buy some for her

Honestly, the way I see it: they decided to take an evening stroll during the weekend. Things have been settling; McFist and Viceroy have started leaving the Ninja alone and Randy takes it as his chance to spend time with his girlfriend

Randy's crush on Theresa didn't fully start until sometime after he rescued her. He'd get incredibly flustered, but this seemed to happen with both boys and girls- (it was his first bi awakening, but he's completely smitten for Theresa right now)

Theresa would likely provide snacks and just talk for a little while about the stars in the sky; she seems to be really interested in constellations, something which Randy gets enthralled by whenever she talks about it

They're enjoying the silence- Theresa wants to voice her deeper thoughts - how she wants to have a life with Randy, but she feels as if the words are stuck even as she attempts to voice it- (she used to have a small crush on Debbie, though Randy's a sweet kid- although Theresa has two hands-)

In the end, Randy is the one who breaks the silence- he confesses, deciding he can't just not tell Theresa how he feels. He can't help but wonder about their future and he begins talking about the place he'd want to live in with her

Theresa is taken by surprise but she hangs on to his every word- her cheeks are heated in a blush and she finally chuckles, "do you really mean that?"

They're not old enough to be married yet, but Randy holds out a promise/couple's ring for Theresa; he's smiling brightly, "I couldn't imagine a life without you-"

hahahah, okay- in all honesty, this ask was a brilliant example of what not to do when sending something to my inbox! this is not the page you want to go to if you're going to be spewing ant-lgbtq+ behavior, but also!! if people would actually read what i want to be sent- we wouldn't be having this kind of situation!

i am not an artist- i'm a novice artist and do not have enough skills to be creating artwork but i'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt this time

i don't know whether this was sent by a troll or a kid trying to get a reaction out of me, but either way- at the end of the day, this is my blog. with my rules and an ask like this isn't going to be tolerated. this is not to say i won't write a straight ship, but please i reblog and write and share PRIDE CONTENT (that's a lot of what i've been reblogging lately-)

that being said, if i do continue getting these kinds of asks - i'm either going to have to turn off anon or i'm going to be responding and just being kind of a menace about it

(for the record, my hc for randy is that he doesn't care in the slightest about gender if he wants to date someone; theresa would more than likely be bi, at the very least but we can talk that more in-depth later)

Me, when Sebastian joins my party for the first time: Okay, this time I'm not going to forget about you, Sebastian. I'm going to make an effort to use you a lot this playthrough so I can better understand you.

Also me, immediately forgetting about Sebastian while finishing Act 2 and making it halfway through Act 3 before I finally notice his Faith quest: ......................Oh. Right. My bad.

I like the idea that Takasugi tries to give Matako as much of a “normal” life as he can, when he can. Like even though it was her choice to join the Kiheitai and he took her in because she had nowhere to go, part of him probably still feels responsible for taking away the rest of her life from her; he knows what it feels like to be a kid in a war and feels responsible for bringing her into the war he’s fighting, so he tries to make her feel like an ordinary girl when he can. 

He probably gifted her the pistols she carries everywhere (with Sakamoto’s help because he knows guns in a way Takasugi doesn't). He lets her pull him everywhere and take selfies with him even if he doesn’t understand the point (based on those two official arts). When she tells him space makes her feel uncomfortable, he orders the Kiheitai to dock on Earth as soon as possible under the excuse of needing to refuel the ship. He just...takes care of her, because she’s one of his people and he takes care of his own.
