people gonna hate me for this but idc...

i'm really happy that the last issue of the team fortress 2 comic is out now, first and foremost because i love tf2 with all my heart, it's been like family since 2009 for me and still, after all these years, a big comfort in my life.

secondly, i'm happy because there is finally an end now to the constant whining, bad takes, bad jokes and harrassment of the artists over a comic that is for fucking free. people have felt so entitled to a comic that is for fucking free. people had such foul takes like "the artist rather works on dota than the comic" (like, hello? ever heard of sth called work contracts? ppl out here really thought that makani CHOSE to work on dota instead of the tf2 comic and treat it like it's not her fucking JOB) and spread hate and misinfo that lead to people pestering the artists over a comic that is for fucking free. i'm so happy i never have to see a post of a crude mindmap, cropped from a badly pixelated screenshot again and people writing under it "SEE?!? the script is finished WHY won't the artist draw it??", framing it like it‘s their sole fault, and maybe you should not open your mouth if you don't know the difference between a mindmap and a script that has... ALL the info you need to translate that piece of work into a functioning, OUTSTANDING comic.

if it weren't for the artists you would not be reading the last chapter right now, because they were the ones pushing for it from the inside. i hope you all know that.

HEAR ME OUT-- i headcanon that tsukishima kei has a sweet tooth, and absolutely cannot take anything bitter, mainly because his favourite food is strawberry shortcake. so here's an idea:

"i thought you'd like coffee. it's bitter and black, just like your soul." kageyama had stated bluntly one day, and hinata nodded his head in agreement. (tsukishima retorts back about something to do with a milk obsession.) it seems like a common misconception.

you ask him to check out a new cafe that's famous for their coffee with you, and even though he hates coffee with a passion, he finds himself agreeing to it. he is convinced it's because of how excited you look.

he gets a mocha, hoping the chocolate could even out the bitterness of the espresso. he stares at the black liquid in his cup and braces himself. he takes a sip of it, and still winces at the taste. you catch the scrunched up look on his face.

"is the coffee alright?" you ask, and the concern on your face made him feel bad for disliking coffee at all.

"it's fine, i'm just not a fan of coffee." he admits, but waves it off, hoping you wouldn't worry about him. he doesn't expects you to laugh, though. he raises an eyebrow. "i assumed you were the type who likes coffee, so i brought you here thinking you'd like to try. i actually prefer anything over coffee."

oh.

he lets out a small laugh of his own. "idiot," his expression is softer than his usual cold demeanor. "it's about time we ditch this place then." you two end up getting bubble tea.

also imagine you taking a sip of his drink, from the same straw he had used, and his cheeks burn. when you ask him about it, he simply turns away and denies everything. hfjdgfhihd.

Why is Hera so hostile to Leto in a manner that she isn't with the other lovers of Zeus? I can't think of any other woman who was targeted so much by Hera. One could say she didn't want Leto to give birth because her children would be a competition to Hera's children, but why bother her even after she had already given birth? Is it because Leto herself is also a threat to Hera?

Sort of I guess?

I don't think Leto would ever be a threat to Hera's role as the queen of the gods but Hera might see her as a competitor for Zeus' affection, even though I think Zeus would not marry someone else and replace Hera.

The twins are definitely a big reason why Hera begrudged Leto - it is outright stated in the Callimachus Hymn to Delos that the reason Hera especially targeted Leto was because she was told that Apollo would be dearer to Zeus than Ares is. Zeus is very proud of Artemis as well. As he himself puts it, he doesn't mind facing Hera's wrath for children like her.

But the continued hatred even after the birth of the twins (like sending Tityus to rape Leto) could have been for different reasons. This wasn't like one of those affairs Zeus would have with mortal women where he'd leave them behind once the child is conceived. Neither could Hera, despite her many attempts, get rid of Leto like she did with the other lovers. Not only did Leto give Zeus children that he loves dearly, she also stayed on Olympus despite Hera's hatred towards her (which isn't directed to any of Zeus' other divine mistresses, btw). It might have also been because Leto herself is dear to Zeus, if the way she's treated on Olympus is any proof. In the Homeric hymn to Apollo, Leto stands next to Zeus - in the Olympian assembly - to welcome their son. Hera is completely absent from the scene, as if Leto had taken her place even if temporarily. Now you could say this is because Apollo himself is such a powerful and glorious son in a way that no other son of Zeus is, so of course Leto would get such an honor (the hymn itself presents it this way).

But here's another instance - in the Iliad, when Hera goes to seduce Zeus, he is obviously very smitten but before getting into the action, he lists some of his lovers (I believe these were his favorite lovers, as a lot of others are not mentioned):

"for never has such desire for goddess or mortal woman so gripped and overwhelmed my heart, not even when I was seized by love for Ixion’s wife, who gave birth to Peirithous the gods’ rival in wisdom; or for Acrisius’ daughter, slim-ankled Danaë, who bore Perseus, greatest of warriors; or for the far-famed daughter of Phoenix, who gave me Minos and godlike Rhadamanthus; or for Semele mother of Dionysus, who brings men joy; or for Alcmene at Thebes, whose son was lion-hearted Heracles; or for Demeter of the lovely tresses; or for glorious Leto; or even for you yourself, as this love and sweet desire for you grips me now.’ (Book 14, trans. A. T. Murray)

Notice how when talking about most of them, he also mentions the children they bore to him but when Demeter and Leto are mentioned, he doesn't bring up their children at all despite them being some of the most accomplished kids of his. What's more, he takes Leto's name just before Hera's. I mean, this is an interpretation but it looks like not only did Zeus love Leto the most out of all his mistresses - giving her a place second to that of his wife, but also his love for her wasn't necessarily only because she gave him two amazing children.

Nonnus does something similar in the Dionysiaca (but this time Zeus is enamored with Persephone instead of Hera) but more notably, when Typhoeus attacks Olympus and Zeus is discouraged, Nike takes the form of Leto to encourage him and it's pretty telling of what Leto meant to Zeus.

One interesting similarity between Hera and Leto is that they both had a giant try to rape them. Porphyrion tried to violate Hera (Zeus inspired him to do this) and Tityus tried to violate Leto (upon Hera's order). Though both of them were killed, only Tityus got an eternal punishment in Tartarus of having his liver/heart eaten out by vultures so Zeus seems to have taken a greater offense at Tityus trying to assault Leto.

Again, I don't think Zeus would ever take anyone other than Hera as his permanent wife - she is irreplaceable to him. There's an entire myth about Hera leaving him and Zeus winning her back. Their relationship is obviously complex and involves all kinds of emotions including love and hate. But Leto is continually dear to him as well and that's something Hera can't do much about.

Can you believe they're finally married, your honour?

horny zayne thoughts:

he's obsessed with mc's entire body but there's just something about her breasts that makes him lose it. he loses his mind when she's riding him and he's sucking her nipples, alternating between one and the other.

he loves when she's about to get her period and her nipples are extra sensitive. she's the one who begs him to suck on them and she trusts him to apply just the right amount of pressure and be completely in tune with the way her body responds. he knows exactly what hiss means keep going, it hurts so fucking good and what hiss means too much. when it's the latter he chooses to run his tongue on them and she melts all the same.

countless lunch breaks have been spent locked inside his office, with her stradling his leg, riding his thigh while he's got her shirt up, sucking on her very sensitive breasts while she's jerking him off. they don't have time to do more than that sometimes but it's one of his favorite things. he always makes sure she comes first, flexing the muscles on his thigh as she rides it faster, suckling on her nipples like the devoted man he is. when she comes, she falls onto him for a few seconds, just to catch her breath and then she slides down between his legs to swallow him whole and let him finish inside her mouth (it has to be this way, she reasons, when they're in his office. he comes a lot and always makes a mess, they still have work, can't risk him shooting his load on her face and having it drip, ruining her clothes. or his. but he does keep spare clothes for them both in his office, just in case they get carried away.)

another thought is that, during traffic, he really loves squeezing her thigh. sometimes it's just really innocent, she'll feed him snacks at a red light while he holds her hand and right before he needs to move again, he lets go of her hand and squeezes her thigh playfully.

other times, especially during road trips while they're on a highway, his large hand is back on her thigh and it stays there until he needs to either stop or make a turn or change gears. when she wants him, she holds his wrist, gives it a squeeze too. he lets her guide his hand, always with a smirk on his face. he always warns her to behave, especially when she decides to run her hand on him too. there's no better euphoria then when she palms him through his pants, feeling how hard he is, watching the way his breath hitches and how he closes his eyes for just one tiny second. and he's a patient man, sure, but he never fails to take the first chance he gets to find a secluded spot to park the car and have her there.

it's like he falls in love all over again when she climbs on him giggling and giving him quick, noisy kisses while he says she's going to drive him insane. she counters with a "you can punish me later" and he really loses it. 💕

Thank you, I was starved and this was absolutely delicious and hitting all of my fetishes especially the titties tlc 😩

What first attracted you to the LMK fandom or were you always a Journey to the west fan?

i watched overly sarcastic productions' summary of the book first, then found out about lmk. got drawn in by cool animation, mostly.

i hadn't heard of it until then. but i kid you not, now that i have context, i see this thing's influence everywhere. it's neat just how much this centuries-old text has permeated modern culture.

i don’t know why but i’ve been thinking about a trump x elon fic . bro i’m not even gonna write it but why is it all that i’ve been thinking about lately 😭 i’m not even american but like hear me out cuz no one else will

-> politician x ceo, they meet at some high level party and caught each others eye

-> trump wants to shoot his shot so he starts investing in elons stocks

-> elon noticed and takes it as flirting

-> they have meetings often to discuss ‘political matters’ but really they just wanna spend time w each other

-> “I’d burn the world for you.” “Why the world? America is enough.”

THIS IS SO FUNNY. the last part took me OUT. on the topic me and my friend were reading this trump x biden fic on ao3 for giggles.......... girl bye i was deceased at the end but im adding onto this

-> would def be slow burn. everyone's at the edge of their seats biting their nails waiting for them to kiss omg.

-> elon gets so jealous when he sees biden (past situationship) mentioned. prolly lead to an arguement.

-> apology sex !!!! elon gets pregnment

I need to anime to come in clutch and give us the line because the official translation did us dirty and changed it.

First one is the scanlation published here, and second one is from my copy of volume 13.

Everyone said the Minecraft movie was going to be bad

And it might just be me overlooking the badness because of the romantic tension between jack black and Jason momoa

But I found it quite funny

Post nine gifs of your favourite characters and let people guess your type.

Thank you so much @hughungrybear and @watchthisqqq for tagging me! It's so exciting to get tagged on one of these things, that being said, this list is not going to be easy. I've been thinking about it for the past 24 hours and I keep adding more than the nine. Anywayyyy...

Here are my nine favourite characters, in no particular order. (These are only ql characters).

Tian

(It was a very difficult pick between him and Wen (Moonlight Chicken) but the first character I watched won over you could say.)

Pran

Wang

Sheng Wang/ Jiang Tian (I really tried to chose one and wasn't able to pick and on top of that I wasn't able to find a gif that fit my vision so here you go.)

Ray

Joker

Shin Juyeong

Wei Zhiyuan

This is not the best scene for him because it doesn't show his attachment to his Ge but this was the one I found the most appropriate.

Peak

There is a lot of characters that did not make the cut. Just because of lack of space and count. If I could add loads of numbers in between 1-9 to add more characters I could and would 🫠🌚🫣.

I was originally going to add the gifs for my favourite characters in series that are airing now, because I've put that on a hold currently. The app said there is a limit of 10 gifs per post so I guess that's a list for some other day.

Now for the tagging. I'm going to tag whoever comes to mind, but if I haven't tagged you personally, still know that I definitely want to hear from you! Please do the challenge! (And if you don't wanna do it that's okay too! )

@chordassinationtechnique @rafyki @itsdarkestrightbeforethesun @troubled-mind @imogenegomi @khaoala @anpanman95

(adding two of my non-bl mutuals cause I'm sure they'll have some great characters to add!) @takaraphoenix @sincenewyorks
