Thoughts on chengxian as a romantic ship? I ship it and was wondering on your opinion.

I am not personally a chengxian shipper inasmuch as I don't tend to read fic where they are plainly, explicitly, romantically or sexually into each other.

however I think I would say I am a chengxian shipper in the sense that it's an incredibly intense relationship for both of them, highly charged, complicated and messy and extremely important in how they relate to each other and (in at least some ways) to the rest of the world. jiang cheng doesn't make sense as a character if he doesn't care about wei wuxian in an incredibly deep and intense way. wei wuxian doesn't make sense as a character if he doesn't - or at the very least didn't - care about jiang cheng in the same intense, almost consuming way. it's a massively significant relationship in both their lives and it's one I find very interesting and compelling to explore.

so like. I guess I'm a chengxian shipper in the same way that I was ever a thorki shipper, in that I wasn't, but also I kind of was, because for me at a certain threshold of relationship intensity the sex or romance or lack thereof starts to become almost incidental. for instance the point where you undergo experimental surgery to have a piece of yourself removed and placed in another person?

so like. while I guess I would say in the strictest sense that my feelings on chengxian as a romantic ship are sort of "eh, not my personal bag, at least not in the traditional sense" but that really doesn't feel like the most accurate answer to the question.

NO WAY THEY JUST BROUGHT IN A BUNCH OF YALL POSSE KINS FOR AN EPISODE EXCUSE ME?????????

[tryin-my-best-here]

Does this mean anything?

Medic from Spy's Disguise, note the scar on his cheek, and the cross. Also note that while he has the scar in both pics, one pic is missing the cross, which means it's removable:

Fritz in his last living scene with Soldier and Corporal, note the lack of scarring:

Fritz in black driving his escape ambulance into the sunset, also lacking a scar:

Now here's the interesting part, this is the next scene, Presumably Fritz angry-driving the ambulance to Dell's. Notice anything on his cheek, and around his neck?

Once he gets to Dell's and exits the vehicle, no more scar or cross:

So! Is this just reusing assets or mixing things up accidentally or being lazy? Or does this mean something deeper?

[chellyfishing]

saw someone say the “shipping” in arise is “heavy-handed,” as if writers of media are simply taking sides instead in a ship war instead of the people who created these characters and decide whether or not a relationship is explicitly romantic in canon

[desire-mona]

more modern poets hcs for greenie!

charlie -

charlie used to post like "annoying gay ppl vs normal gay ppl" memes, had a huge turnaround and they cringe when they think of that time. mentioning blaire white or kalvin garrah would make him jump

has an "i <3 milfs" design of every article of clothing, could make an entire i <3 milfs outfit. shirt, hat, pants, socks, belt, shoes, hoodie, you name it.

todd -

todd is nonbinary bc he is autistic and autistic ppl generally view gender differently. not debating this. this is a fact and this is canon. they/he/she todd anderson, what of it.

chronic procrastinator when it comes to anything besides school. they will put off doctors appointments, finishing tv shows, even charging their phone.

neil -

doesnt use tiktok but he watches todd scroll thru her fyp sometimes and gets very mad at those "acting pov" videos. hes like "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN ACTING POINT OF VIEW" "POINT OF VIEW YOU ONLY HAVE A LIMITED NUMBER OF WORDS???????? WHAT DOES THAT MEEEEEAN"

i see ppl saying that neil would be a swiftie but i would like to suggest that he's a big ethel cain fan, a collection of songs that tell a fictional character's story? tell me thats not right up his alley

meeks -

i dont think this is the type of math meeks bases a career off of but i do think he rly pays attention to architecture and city layouts and stuff. will forever complain abt how inconvenient it is to have a car centered society and how every place should be walkable OR have public transport

collects records despite not having a record player, tapes despite not having a walkman, and cds despite using his cd player maybe 3 times a year. quite honestly its just to have a physical collection of his music taste

pitts -

pitts went thru a "nice guy/ vaguely incel-ular" phase in middle school, but he didnt talk to a singular woman in those years. by the time it went away there was no harm done to anyone but himself and a very annoyed meeks who had to listen to how girls "only go for assholes"

he has a fashion sense so good that ppl online *ask* him to post fit checks, he doesnt do any if theyre not requested of him. pitts is also the one with the biggest online presence, most notably tiktok and twitter

knox -

type of guy to constantly post shit like "like for a tbh" or post anonymous question things on his story. nobody interacts with any of it so he usually just deletes them after half a day

haaaaaaaates texting and will either send very long voice messages or just ask to call whoever he's talking to (me fr i send ppl voice msgs almost exclusively)

cameron -

cam is suuuuuuuper creeped out by ai "art", especially the ai washing feet commercial during the superbowl, which he had nightmares about for a week

his parents are constantly trying weird diets (most notably keto) so he has the weirdest assortment of random ingredients in his pantry. has come up with the strangest "meals" any one of those boys have ever seen

[sciderman]

Reading the first few issues by Lee and Ditko and it's so interesting seeing that Peters main reason for being Spider-Man isn't wanting to be a hero and help people/stop badguys but earning money to support May, so when he gets into a supervillian fight it's either a coincidence that happened while he tried making money from them (taking pictures of them mainly) or getting caught up in their shit and either being nosey (Thinkerer) or being tricked by them (Chameleon) and it suddenly becomes a "vendetta" thing because either he was duped or spited by them. Whitch along with him being a self-isolating and kinda egoistical prick is such an interesting look at this "selfless symbol of heroism and responsibility" and i wish we got more of that in modern version of teen Peter.

honestly!!! really - it was kind of such a realisation when i went back into the spider-man comics to find out that "great power great responsibility" really honestly wasn't actually peter parker's driving motivation when starting, but actually something that he learns over years upon years – and even then, it really still isn't why he does it. he does it because that's how he gets his kicks.

and so now when i see peter kind of reduced to the "great power great responsibility" mindset, i feel like it's kind of a gross simplification of him - which is crazy, because i was kind of guilty of it, too.

i don't think peter even really fully understands "great power great responsibility" to this day. it's something he's still faced with, and something he still questions, every day.

i don't think any writer who reiterates those words even knows what it means. i've seen it written in so many contexts in the comics and other adaptations and audibly whispered under my breath "thhaat's not what it fucking meeeeeans....."

turns out! responsibility means a whole plethora of things, actually - and spider-man is often a way for peter to dodge his responsibilities as peter parker.

not only that, but uncle ben never actually says the words "great power great responsibility" to peter parker. it's just a narrative thing. he never says the words!!!!!! ! !! ! !

peter parker doesn't learn that lesson from uncle ben. and really, peter's entire reckoning with responsibility isn't that he owes the world his gifts as spider-man, but actually he has to take on new responsibilities after uncle ben's death - he has to support aunt may.

he has to support gwen, after captain stacy's death.

peter's whole "great responsibility" thing is about him struggling to keep up with all these very masculine roles and responsibilities being imposed upon him as he grows into a man. it's not actually a question of him owing the world his powers as spider-man - that's just a misunderstanding of the lesson that he's kind of buried himself into. he thinks it means he owes the world everything - and that's kind of what leads him to fail the people that he really should hold responsibility to.

it's so fun. it's so complicated. he throws all his responsibilities into his identity as spider-man, and acts in avoidance of his responsibilities as peter parker. sorry. i think about this a lot. i think about this a lot.

great power and great responsibility is such an interesting set of words that absolutely everyone has a different interpretation of. and some people reiterate it like it's meant to mean something, but it doesn't when they say it. like it's a set of words meant to be paired with spider-man but they kind of fall hollow when the person writing them actually doesn't think about the meaning of it. it's kind of almost lost all of it's meaning at this point.

[HAIR PUN]

OK, this will probably be my last theory as to who "X eyes" is but I really think I have something here.

V

V's hair is generally too neet to be this guy, as well as just a bit too long.

Cyn

Cyn's hair is close but WAAAAY too big. I could absolutely forgive you for thinking this is Cyn.

Uzi

OK, I know what you're thinking "Why is she here? She looks nothing like "X eyes"!", haha...

WRONG

IT'S ALMOST AN EXACT MATCH AND NO I AM NOT OKAY. WHAT DOES IT MEEEEEAN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (yes I did have to stretch Uzi to make her fit in the rectangle)

[blood-orange-juice]

I love this guy

Also "the Nihility envelops everyone and that's why it doesn't matter" is a Statement.

Also it wasn't even a self-sacrifice, just a mode of transportation. *sounds of fangirling* Ok, this is my favorite type of fictional men. A man's place is at the edge of known reality.

Also everyone is so obsessed with Ratio being supportive but has anyone discussed "Dormancy" being impossible on Penacony? What does it mean? Just that the real dreamworld is unreachable?

Daww.

What does it meeeeean.

Everyone has already said how nice it is that he treats his younger self kindly (this shows he never really betrayed himself) but I also like that the younger self also notices he's nervous.

Of course it's because it's Aventurine himself but I want to think it's because he could read people well even back then.

Dawww 2

I once again have questions

[prowerprojects]

It's already known that in Sonic Frontiers the Ancients piloting the Titans are supposed to parallel Sonic and his friends, (based on how they act/what they do, and even their voices), it's obviously intentional since each of Sonic's friends parallels the pilot from the Island they were stuck on (Amy– Giganto, Knuckles– Wyvern, Tails– Knight; and then Sonic as Supreme's pilot)

But doesn't that make the gang Soulmates in a way? (Though ig it's more soulmates like the Elements of Harmony than straight up reincarnation)

I'm just so intrigued by the implications of this (Especially since I'm not expecting it to ever get addressed) What are the odds, right? That the Ancients who lived like millions of years ago would just happen to have a group of four heroes who have relatively similar personalities to the four heroic friends who are living now and are heavily involved with the Chaos Emeralds that the Ancients brought to this planet.

Did the Cyberspace put Amy, Knuckles and Tails on those specific islands because it sensed their connection to the respective Titans? Did the Chaos Emeralds somehow orchestrated the fact that each of them was not only born, but specifically born in the image of those pilots? Like what does this all meeeeean.

[kittiesarecuter]

Okay, like, I'm listening to lotr on audiobook while working & I just have to ask, wtf is up with the elves? Why are they like *gestures vaugely* that? I understand the text of why they're both the pinnacle of grace and grief, but what's the narrative point? Even when no elf is situationally present in the story, they're constantly referenced far more than dwarves or men, and I think equally as often as hobbits.

I remember talking to my mom when I first read the books & she related them to the archetypal Noble Savage in terms of being wise, at one with nature, inscrutable, and most importantly fading away & leaving the land for others to inhabit. I think the type fits, they're nature's perfect human so to speak while also fading in strength as opposed to growing like the tall men. I understand that and get that but are they taking the place of metatextual Celts in Tolkien's retelling of Britain or does the archetype reach beyond colonialism? Because that's not the only facet of their presence in the tale.

To me they reflect the whole trope (I dunno if it was a trope at the time) of the golden age being long ago while the present is regarded as mean and bending towards cruelty, a favorite of fascists. The idea of pure goodness having been present, but such solid distinctions have broken down as time passed until even our hero's people are susceptible to corruption. But that's not just the elves, the dúnedain also portray this trope as numenor has fallen and their blood has thinned.

Why do they have to be grieving? Why are they so determined to leave? What does it meeeeean!!!!!

Like, please, I want to hear y'alls interpretation.

[pageofheartdj]

But what does that meeeeean?

It's like Alastor knows something about Adam to either remind him of what he did to change his fate, or to mock him how he sat by and didn't!!

And how does Alastor knows???

(since I hc Alastor's deal is with Roo, but he is allies with Lilith) If Alastor is mocking, than this is about the apple? Lilith rejected Heaven, Eve, being created with less free will to avoid the same incident accepted the apple from Lucifer that gives her power over her own life back. And Adam refused to follow them and ended up separated from them.

If Alastor is reminding of what he did, than is this about Adam's and 'Lilith's' deal whatever it was?
