[escapism-from-the-real-world]

So, I watched red vs blue on a whim because of a youtube short up to season 12.

Like I binged that shit in a week.

And I just, have so many feelings.

Which means it’s posting time!

I fucking hate that this show makes me care and like and feel for these absolute idiotic assholes who sometimes go through really great character arcs and changes and sometimes back track on their growth so hard their backs crack while also making witty and shitty one liners and running jokes that have me cackling because I was not expecting that joke and for it to come back or, in a genuinely shocking turn of events, make me emotional.

I hate how my favorite character for most of the blood gulch arc was Church because we was sarcastic and bitchy and make me giggle and his relationship with Tucker reminded me if how me and my siblings bicker and fight and then he ends up having one if the most traumatic and complicated backstory ever with a really interesting dynamic with Tex that’s all about grief and saying goodbye and bringing people back but they don’t come back to the same expectations you’ve been holding for them while also dealing with the fact that Church was psychologically and quite possibly physically tortured into different parts of himself for a government program.

I hate how Tucker, the guy who keeps flirting and making unwelcome sexual comments to and about women in a very early 2000s way of giving your characters flaws, has ended up with a very odd but special place in my heart because he grows and changes as a character and develops beyond his flaws and is so painfully human and makes mistakes and is genuinely hilarious at times and cares so fucking much but he can’t show it because toxic masculinity but he fights anyways and is lowkey highkey the best soldier of them all and why do I like his character so much???

And just everyone’s chemistry with each other and the fact that I kept rewinding to rewatch scenes and jokes because they’re amazing or funny and I can’t tell you how ling it took me to get through some of those seasons I kept rewinding so much.

Like, how did they make a bit about them driving a military grade vehicle called the warthog with hispanic (?) music blasting through the radio as they crash into unsuspecting victims so fucking funny? I love this batshit crazy show.

I also hate how it makes me emotional. Sarge’s speech at the end of season 8? I almost cried. I chocked up. How fucking dare you. This is a show about a video game that came out before I was born. With jokes that would make a middle schooler proud and a plot that honestly had me baffled and craving more each season (up to season 12).

And they’re assholes! Like, they care about their shitty little group of friends so much that they are willing to commit various war heroics/crimes in order to save them, but they’re still assholes. But that’s what makes them great! They’re human and they mess up and make mistakes and say the wrong thing and make up and care and boy does it hurt to care.

Just AAAGGHH

This show has me shaking people aggressively by the shoulders and biting hard enough to bleed goddamnit.

None of my social media is really entertaining me at the minute and it sucks. Tumblr is boring, twitter is boring, even tiktok is getting boring

Fic: Call Me Something Else Rating: Mature (to be safe) Characters: Agent One, Phase Words:761 Summary: Phase is watching One lift heavy objects and wants to talk about it. They also regret using their given name to start this friendship because it's not nearly as attractive to hear. Notes: I don't know how many other fics I'm going to make but this one is for the ao3 statistics and also the rvb0 community.

One was beautiful, she was hot. Her hair was shaved to a thin fuzz that she dyed bright yellow. It was gaudy, it was sexy. She was only partially armored and lifting boxes to help her father set up the training room. The sweat building up on her face and dripping off her pouted lips had Phase staring holes into her.

East's girlish crush on One had crept into Phase's view of her. They didn't mind it though... One wasn't a bad choice, it was just embarrassing to admit it. They were a knife-wielding-badass and this goody two shoes with gorgeous muscles and beautiful bright brown eyes was NOT going to get the best of them.

"Hey Danielle, can you stop staring and help us get this one up there?"

One called them by their given name, looking back at them with a tired lopsided smile. Warm and inviting to soothe their reservations.

Phase wished they hadn't said that was their name, it just made their stomach knot when she said it. They didn't want to think of her moaning "Danielle" when they–

"Yeah? You sure?" Phase made themselves get up off the bench and over to help, “I might drop it on you and crush you flat.”

"F'course." She rolled her eyes while trying to keep the particularly unwieldy box balanced in her arms, "I trust you about as much as I did before so- heh- not a big deal."

Was she nervous?

Phase phase-skipped on top of the box pile and grabbed a hold of the new box's edge.

Axel called for a 1..2… 3! and they had lifted and pushed the container into its precarious spot.

One had groaned. This wasn't that difficult for her but it still came out. Phase wished they could hide, being closer did not help the feeling burning inside them.

They hopped down and came up to One.

"Hopefully that doesn't kill anybody."

One wiped her brow and leaned on the box pile before responding, "It's not going to do that."

"You’d look really stupid if it fell on you right now."

"Pft, don't try and psych me out."

She sighed and leaned her head on the side of it for a second. Maybe she really was winded. 

Phase stepped up a bit closer.

"No I mean it. You actually look stupid already."

"What's your deal today, Danielle?" she huffed.

"Are you mad?"

"Are you trying to pick a fight with me?"

"Maybe..." They leaned on the pile of boxes too.

She squinted at them, trying to sort out their deal before letting herself get heated.

"What do you want?-"

"Maybe I think you'dlookbetterflatonthefloor." Phase cut in rapid and quietly, embarrassed but already locked in.

Axel quirked an eyebrow from across the room.

One was agape, blinking confused and almost laughing.

"--What? Huh? What'd you say?"

"Nothing! What? I didn't say anything."

"No, you said you- Is this a joke? Why are you messing with me." One had a scowl, getting bothered by Phase's behavior.

"I want t’you." Phase said with a crack in their voice, they cleared their throat then restated, 

"I want to talk to you. Somewhere." 

One blushed, still not sure what was happening but was starting to pick up on it. She looked at the training room doors then back at Phase.

"Like right now???" She questioned.

Phase blushed just as hard, knowing how stupid this was. 

"Not like that just--" They walked away towards the exit, "If you'd be interested..."

One paused, seeing Phase act even slightly vulnerable caught her off guard. 

She glanced back at Axel who was pretending not to be there, “I uh, have to go. I'll be back in a bit!”

–

Phase pulled her into a corner closet, One pressed her lips in, phase heatedly reciprocated.

It was a deep kiss, they kissed her hard, slipping in tongue with a juvenile excitement.

"Danielle..." One gasped when they're lips parted

"Call me Phase." they kissed her again.

Her brows knotted with confusion at the request but they were already back at it. Phase's necking getting her hot and bothered.

"Phase~" she whined as Phase's lips wandered down to her neck. Their name being said made them press in closer, titillated.

"God, I’d do anything to go down on you" They breathed out while pressing their body against her.

“You are doing enough for that already, I think.” One admitted, clumsy but interested.

Phase got a mischievous turn in her smile and started pulling armor and suits off.

RVB Romantic Relationship Royale- Round 1, Part 1, Poll 6

[smilysstuff]

The weirdly tuckington vibes I got from Zukka what the fuck.

[banamine-bananime]

constantly thinking about how every big bad guy in need of a nemesis in the rvb universe sees this 18-year-old who enlists drenched in Axe bodyspray with no idea how to do his own laundry, grows into this 20something who has become an expert in such crucial coming-of-age milestones as getting mpregged to birth alien chestburster jesus and surviving a siege on the ancient sacred monument you're squatting in, but still doesn't know how to have a functional interpersonal relationship, and they're like, sweating and feverishly clenching their battle rifle, "you don't understand i NEED to kill him. CARNALLY. in the throes of the passions of the flesh"

[hipstersoulgushers-art]

Raymond brought this random ass guy to movie night, AND they keep talking. Unbelievable.

Sometimes i forget trans bodies arent seen as the “default” way a body can just be, and people see them as other enough to try starting art discourse over? Very confusing.

Trans people dont look just one way or another. They can be literally anything- just like cis people’s bodies? Its so weird when people get upset about people drawing trans bodies without surgery when so many trans people choose not to have surgery, or just havent had it yet.
