#prople change

[arisingsun]

People CHANGE. Yes they do . A person cannot be the same person,whom he used to be ten years ago . We all change . We need to change. We cannot live the way we used to be . We cannot let the same things hurt us again , again and again. We need to grow out of it .

But change for your betterment , your happiness, and most importantly for yourself.

Cant sleep so im thinking about ayhalo

I think its like. one sided. qaypierre WOULD smooch that demon and take him on dates. qbad would not recognize anything as a romantic gesture. aypierre could throw a bouquet of chocolate roses at him and bad would just be like ! thank you :}

like they love each other, absolutely. they TRUST each other, to the point where i’d even say it gets in the way of bad seeing aypierre as anything more than a good friend. that’s his guy. The dude always in his corner. Friend resource label: team mate (coparent) (down to help kidnap people). bad doesnt do classic romantic relationships- all of his relationships are INCREDIBLY queer, but the closest he usually gets to what others read as romance is a classic chewtoy4chewtoy dynamic. He LOVES to fuck with people and he loves to get fucked with and if there’s a nice jawline or pretty muscles included?? huge bonus !!

he’s got something- not kinder, with aypierre? not calmer, either, but stable, maybe. pierre has proven, over and over again, that he’s on bad’s side. Spying on tubbo, encouraging bad’s pranks, the kidnapping- i can’t call it a reliable dynamic, not with how paranoid bad is, even when he trusts, but there is still a feeling of understanding that, wherever pierre’s limits are for when he cant support bad (or genuinely turn against him), it hasnt been reached yet

aypierre, on the other hand, i dont know enough about to be absolutely sure but there are some Vibes. ironically, i think hes feeling like his relationships are unreliable. max was going to have their baby, and then he wasnt, and then he left him, then max fucking died. plus whatever is happening with him and ayrobot, which probably leaves him feeling like he cant rely on Himself. like he had, if not a little crush on bad, at least some Interest in him, before. as well as several islanders. i remember the days of the Bed Threat.

but thats part of it, too? because those flings didnt have that emotional connection, and i always got the sense that he started looking for that with maximus, to Love and Be Loved rather than pure lust. To care about someone, genuinely, and be cared about in return. but he didnt get that with the flings, and We know that max was using him, but i dont know if he did, but maybe he had a feeling about it and maybe he also had a feelinf about maximus’ feelings towards bad and maybe- there’s something about that? A little push of not-spite-not-projection onto bad.

because bad IS that reliability, right now. he’s a fucking gremlin. a bastard. a prankster silly guy. he trusts aypierre and aypierre trusts him and they dont share everything but so often, when it comes down to it, it is them against the world. them in the corner, caught, aypierre shouting about kissing as a cover for their crimes while bad runs giggling away from him.

Anyway.... Caleb carved Flapjack and she was his palisman, which is why she just left to live in the woods for 400 years instead of staying with Evelyn and her family for whatever reason

And the house in the woods is just some random house because there's no way the house belonging to two local legends, who have a statue built for them, and are the local folk lore was just left to rot and wasn't turned into a tourist attraction.

OK, I’m gonna try this again because I forgot I wouldn’t be able to reblog the poll for different timezones… sorry for the complications… @lenievi

I have polls now, and I’m curious who’s my followers’ fave character. (I know it might be hard to choose). If you already voted, can you please vote again 🥺

I want this to be relatively limited to people who follow me or visit my blog, hence why the reblogs are disabled. I’m just curious 👀

I sometimes wish Louis was never associated with Harry or that band https://at.tumblr.com/starfoxrry/thats-rly-sad-ur-a-harrie-now-do-u-not-like-louis/sx1t4oqzvu5a

The politics of the music industry + the insanity of Larries leads to ex-1D fans’ avoiding Louis.

Unfortunately most people aren’t critical thinkers about Harry Styles. Most people who consume pop cultures consume mostly garbage; the popular taste really is the worst. But what can you do?

Sometimes what I want in a story is not exactly what my character would do and as unfortunate as it is, my characters are there to write the story and not be tools used by the story, their choices are what builds it.

So as much as I would want to smack some shit into Jack (and so many others), I will refrain from doing it.

More people need to understand just how evil Capitalism is.

I wish I could show this video to my dad, but I don't think he'd watch it. It would just start a fight between him and I.

"Son, if it weren't [for capitalism], do you think you'd even be born?! I would have just sat on the couch and watched TV all day if I didn't HAVE to work."

Okay, 1) Telling your suicidal son he might not have ever been born? NOT the flex you think it is. Oh golly gee, wouldn't that be a shame if I just didn't exist? Jeepers.

And 2) I know you aren't lying on purpose - we're having an argument, you're the father, so you have to win the argument. Even if that means saying a complete 100% bullshit lie unintentionally. Dad. Buddy. My guy. You're retired and you're STILL working. You can't go a single week without being involved in something! Don't pull up and tell me you'd be a lazy pos when you have all the opportunity in the world to do so now and you WON'T.

Dad. Come ON. You don't want to admit it, but you're the VICTIM here. You were ground up and spat out by the system, and even though you took it on the chin and it worked for you, the only reason it did is because you grew up in a generation where those possibilities still existed!

Okay, this is becoming a rant, and I really just wanted to share this video it's got me hot

Hello! Can I request BSD men (especially Fyodor and Jouno, since they're both pretty sadistic) with a honey sweet s/o? Someone who is very caring, compassionate and gentle?

go back and show my love

synopsis - how are they with a rather honey sweet lover?

includes - fyodor, oda, jouno

warnings - gn!reader, fluff, mentions of sadistic tendancies, wc - 493

fyodor dostoevsky ★↷

↪it was no surprise to anyone to find out fyodor wasn't exactly the caring type. at the best he was tolerable of others but he truly wouldn't go out of his way to do much for anyone, probably only if they were really close but was anyone?

↪so how did someone as compassionate and gentle as you end up with a rather souless man? some say love makes you do crazy things while others say opposites attract.

↪but whatever it was, it seemed to be a good thing. fyodor didn't really like how openly kind you were at first, but now he found it rather comforting.

↪ it was a change of pace for him. he now had someone who showed him genuine care and he couldn't help but occasionally indulge himself in your natural gentle persona. and the way he saw it, you balanced out the relationship perfectly.

↪and eventually you would see a less and less sadistic version of your lover. but sometimes he couldn't help but feel that he could so easily destroy your kindness.

sakunosuke oda ★↷

↪he was a very special case. a mafioso that doesn't kill, one that has morals and has a genuine kindness behind his daily personality at his work.

↪this could be evident after he's done for the day. for example, hanging around his friends and visiting the orphans. so meeting someone as genuinely kind and compassionate as you was something he cherished.

↪he loved how caring you were. it was those sort of qualities he loved in someone. especially when you would show him that same kindness and reassure him in his darkest days.

↪your compassionate nature gave him comfort. it brought him much happiness to return to you after a long day and be able to be himself and experience your gentleness.

saigiku jouno ★↷

↪some may expect that those working in a military unit that is specifically designed to protect prople would be caring people. but the hunting dogs weren't all that caring, especially jouno.

↪being the interrogation expert had lead him to be less moral than he probably should be and prided himself on being able to extract information in any means necessary. a rather sadistic man hid behind his public front.

↪and while it may not surprise most, it surprised him that such a compassionate and gentle person such as yourself would choose to be with him. he had a rather dubious side to himself but somehow you seemed to put it to the back of his mind.

↪and eventually he grew to flourish in your gentle presence. one that seemed too good to be true and yet now he could willingly indulge himself in your genuine kindness.

↪and while that more sadistic side still festered in his mind, when he was wih you it seemed to temporarily melt. and he treated you with that same gentle kindness you showed him.

PRELIMINARY ROUND - YU-GI-OH!

PROPAGANDA

Aki Izayoi/Akiza Izinski

1.) Famously built up as part of a protagonist group during the first and second season, complete with her own tragic backstory and several duels she got to participate in (very important in yugioh), only for a change in the lead writer (who, in some of his other works, literally admitted "he's not good at writing women") to occur after the second season, turning her from almost a main character into a literal "benchwarmer" for her duelling team (one of the outtro sequences in the later seasons literally refers to her as that). Fun things included such as: Had special powers in the earlier seasons which she struggled with and learned to control only to lose them for no reason in season 4; went from duelling several times to duelling literally twice during the entire 3rd, 4th, and 5th season, one of which was a tournament duel she lost embarrassingly despite being set up as a very capable duellist before; painstakingly learned a special form of duelling (card games on motorcycles) only to lose the only duel she partook in in this format; was briefly put into a coma (and lost her powers directly after) shortly before two of the male protags GAINED power upgrades; went from an acceptable amount of screentime to a background prop; also, despite being canonically sixteen, standard overly sexy outfit design with lots of cleavage (big tits because of course), a very short dress, and stockings with garters.

2.) She develops psychic powers when she is 8, accidentally injures her father since she can't control them yet. He calls her a monster, abuses and neglects her, and eventually sends her to a dueling boarding school rather than actually care for her. Other fear her and her powers so she suppresses them and never really learns how to control them. Eventually a cult called the Arcadia Movement recruits her because they want to exploit her powers for their own gain. In the first season she is introduced as a strong duelist with psychic powers, a rival on par with the male protagonist. She also nearly beats the protagonist in duel when they go head to head. She only starts to lose because she starts to open up emotionally about her past and fear of hurting others with her powers.

After this she joins the protags and is a love interest for the main character. They NEVER bring up and develop her backstory and stuff after this EVEN THOUGH this is such a good and interesting backstory. Even though she is introduced as a competent duelist, they reduce her to a benchwarmer on the team. THEY LITERALLY SAY SHE IS A BENCHWARMER IN THE SHOW!! She doesn't get to contribute to the plot, partake in important duels, or develop her character arc after the first season despite the fact she had so much potential.

Her character could EASILY have been used to explore trauma and exploitation, major themes already present in the show. But sadly they chose to only explore how those things impacted the male characters instead

3.) My poor girl. Her story starts off great, good set up, good characterization. She has psychic powers and her parents did not know how to help her. She ran away from home and joined a cult of people with similar powers. All normal character beats. The main character shows her the power of friendship and shows she has a connection to 4 other 'signers' who are suppose to protect against the season antagonist. She starts leaving the cult, talking to her parents again etc because she now knows there are prople who care for her. But thats where her development kind of ends. She learns the leader of the cult was manipulating her but she never really gets to confront him.

By the end of the season, she and the other female signer get sidelined because they doesn't have the core mechanic of the series, how to play a card game on a motorcycle. Instead they are replaced by a character who was not originally a signer but by the end became one cause he helped.

Season 2 and beyond is shows not much more than that. Except for she has a whole episode dedicated to learning how to ride a motorcycle. The biggest thing about that is we never really see anyone else in the series learn or be uncomfortable riding and while it's realistic, it's only her. And in that episode there was like a couple of guys trying to make her fail like? I guess it's part of the episode of learning and overcoming challenges but why intentionally introduce the misogyny now? I think there was maybe 2 other woman who rode motorcycles in this show which is an overall series problem.

She went from a main character to background as the rest of the story focuses around the main character and his 2 childhood friends for the rest of the series.

Ultimately her story is wasted potential, she started out with interesting character and development but there was no strong follow up. We never see her work through how the cult used her or how it affects her after a first confrontation. She was just left hanging like every other woman in yu-gi-oh. And don't get me started on the manga. Iirc she gets introduced at the end for plot reasons and nothing else.

Aoi Zaizen/Skye Zaizen

1.) she's presented as a really strong dueller and is really famous for it - a duelling idol - and everything. she proceeds to have pretty much no substantial wins which wouldn't hurt as much if not for the fact that one loss in particular is just infamous for how dirty it does her. like alright. duels take place in the air in cyberspace, you with me? and when she lost this one infamous duel she fell off her board and faceplanted into the ground which would kind of be like fine whatever i guess but it's SUCH a visceral faceplant. like. if you haven't seen it you should go find the clip cause man. it was so unnecessary… besides that she also gets brainwashed (par for the ygo girls course) and falls into a coma (also par for the course). before i move on though the fact that she doesn't really win any important duels is made even more frustrating by the fact that she used one of the best archetypes at the time then changed for a worse archetype for basically no reason. her character has a lot of interesting set up from the start that's just never properly delivered upon but they trick you into thinking she's receiving good character development by changing the design of her duel idol persona and like sure the designs may slap but that doesn't excuse that she doesn't really get the cohesive character development they're meant to signify. not really

2.) Although she is supposed to be a strong and popular duelist in canon, she loses almost every single duel horribly. One loss is particularly brutal as she falls from a large height directly onto her head and goes into a coma (again. yes this was the second time). She has the least amount of duel wins out of all the other Yugioh female leads, save for one who never dueled one on one.

3.) In the show, she plays a trickstar deck. In real life, this deck became known as one of THE most overpowered decks you could use. Literally so strong they had to nerf it. You'd think this kind of overpoweredness would reflect in the show. No. Her biggest win comes from basically an AI child, a minor antagonist.

First rules of witchcraft

1. Mundane before magical

Not every weird dream is a sign from the universe, not every strange emotion comes from divine intervention, not every dear you see is a God trying to speak to you. Think about how you would react to these things before you knew magic existed, try incorporating those past feelings with your new feelings that believe in magic, incorporate a scientific AND magical approach. It's very important for your mental health to be able to differentiate between an actual sign or something that is completely normal for humans. For example twin flames, this is a horrible ideology to fall into. If you're dating someone, and you become obsessed with them and you convince yourself they are your twin flame, but then the relationship starts falling apart and you feel like your pressured to stay in that relationship because you still think they are your twin flame, thats awful! Twin flames don't even exist! It is simply an unhealthy mindset that can keep abusive relationships going. If you're curious about which things to believe in and which things to avoid a good rule of thumb is if it makes you feel bad or if it hurts people then don't believe it! What we believe in is ultimately a choice, you cannot believe in something you know and you cannot know something you believe, therefore, believe in things that dont hurt you or others. It's very Important to practice mental health while experiencing and learning about magic, It's very easy to fall into a cycle where you think every single thing is a sign and it can lead you to being very confused. It can be easy to fall into dissociation, depression and mania if you heavily fall into woo woo shit with no logical reasoning. Another example is people denying themselves medication because they think they can heal through magic, this is false, and it hurts prople.

2. Avoid cultural appropriation

If you're not Native American you are not smudging, If you're not jewish you shouldn't be working with a Lilith. Think of it this way, we have no scientific proof that magic or deities are real, but we do have proof the people that are affected by cultural appropriation are real and it does hurt them. Therefore you should care more about the people who are harmed by cultural appropriation then your personal desire to do something in a closed culture.

3. BE SAFE

Don't put essential oils directly on candles, don't burn cinnamon, don't accidentally eat toxic plants, don't leave candles unattended. Practice basic fire safety and food safety. Some herbs in witchcraft can be toxic for pregnant people, and fine for others. Do your research.

4. Your path can be unique

As long as you are not being culturally appropriative or hurting people, you can practice however you damn well please. You don't have to follow every single rule in a book. You don't have to cast a circle every time. You can charge things in many different ways like singing or with your hands or with dancing, even playing an instrument. Your path and your practice can be completely unique, if something isn't working for you change it, have fun.

These are pretty much the most important things you need to know about witchcraft.

Imagine

Hyrule shattered. Its throne broken. From the shards of its fallen empire, Ganondorf has made his own. He is the Emporer now.

Blood stains every carpet. They have been washed to resolve the smell, but every stain is to remain.

He has what he wanted.

His people- the chieftains and captains, the guild leaders and the scribes -handle the shakey diplomacy of trade. His talent is Bloodshed, and his season of war is ending.

Should his prople need him, they can summon his might faster than anyone else could rally a militia. The fear of him smoothes their path toward fostering a peace he cannot envision.

He is older than he thought he would achieve.

He is alone.

The chefs do not push him to eat if he refuses. They are afraid.

The maids do not push him to bathe if he refuses. They are afraid.

He has not slept in days, he thinks, for he nailed the curtains closed in a pique of fury over a headache.

The guards warn him that an intruder has come. Good. He tells them to hide, lest the invader's bloodlust cut them down. Lest the invader's bloodlust be sated before he reaches the King. The Emporer wants to fight.

It is a small man.

Wary, confused, determined.

He is very afraid, but he knows how to weild his fear like a madman.

"You look like shit." Ganondorf snarls.

The invader laughs. "Better than you. Your cooks say you don't eat anymore."

Gan growls.

The hylian is less afraid of him by the second and it infuriates him.

"I'm not fighting you until you're at your best." The asshole sheathes his sword. "Only sporting."

You see this is the thing with Ganondorf right. He's always going on and on about being king. What happens when he does get everything he wants though? He's subjugated all his enemies, and those that fear to oppose him bow to him. He's consolidated his power. Now he has to rule? Without fist-fighting someone? Without anticipating some new threat around the corner? He doesn't have to fight and scream at the gods for giving him recognition because he has it? Yeah I think it would throw him into a weird state of depression for a bit. I don't think he can stay still. He needs something to be mad about so that he can direct all his energy towards it. He can't stay idle. I imagine part of his ire with Rauru was his philosophy of peace, that under his rule strength and warfare would be unnecessary. I think killing demons and taming monsters like moldugas was what kept Ganondorf sane all those years and now he has to sit around and rule peacefully? And also be at risk that some wacky king might succeed Rauru and then possibly attack him with power he could hardly counter? Fat chance.

So yeah, I think in this case he would find Link a welcome change like oh FINALLY someone competent is trying to assassinate me TIME TO TRAIN AND FEEL THE THRILL OF BATTLE-

[melancholypancakes]

{Disclaimer: this is fan-made, fan fiction and I don't own black cat at all this is just a "what if" of character scenario}

In Earth-42, there is no spiderman to protect the city of Brooklyn.

Only chaos and crime, however there is one superhero though.

Black cat, unlike other realities of Black Cat, this one became a superhero.

Felicia García, is a down to earth and gothic teenage girl in Brooklyn.

In this universe she attends to Brooklyn Visons Academy like Miles.

Felicia is the daughter of Lydia Hardy & Andrés García.

Lydia Hardy was the black cat burglar ever since she was a young adult but as time went by she fell in love with police officer Andrés García.

Lydia Hardy ended up giving up her life of the Black Cat to be with Andrés.

She revealed to him she was the burglar but wanted to change her ways, if he'll have her.

Andrés embraced her and accepted her, even if she did crimes.

He knew she had a good heart, they both ended up having two children.

Antonio García and Felicia García, Antonio is a military man these days so he's often not at home.

Lydia and Andrés raised their little girl and make sure she has a good life.

Lydia ended up filling a position to work for the Mayor of New York City.

However, Lydia gets murdered by a criminal named crossbones.

Unfortunately, she had a debt to pay for her life when she did burglary and own prople money.

She was survived by her husband and children.

Felicia was mourning and vengeful, but she knew she couldn't bring her mother back.

After Lydia's death, Andrés told Felicia about her mother's work in the past.

Shock by the news, butshe decided after her mother's death she would become Black Cat not a burglar but into a superhero!

To save people, protect New York City and make it safe as it once was all those years ago...

Felicia is friends with Miles Morales along with Gankee, Mike, Ari, Jin, and her best friend Zoe.

Zoe, Antonio and her father are the only ones her know about her secret identity.

Unknown to Felicia, Miles is Prowler and her archenemy.

Felicia love interest is Miles Morales as well as her friend.

Felicia is Miles opposite, as she is warm, loving, kind, always willing to help and selfless.

Black Cat is the only superhero in Brooklyn, she may not be a Spiderman or the perfect superhero like Wonder woman or Batman.

But she does her best and her best is enough.

Black Cat may not be the superhero this universe wanted but she is what they need.

Felicia made her costume herself based off Cat woman, her weapons and belt off Batman.

Felicia favorite foods are pretzels, hot dogs and pizza.

Felicia listens to 80s music, rap, alternative rock, R&B, and hip hop.

Felicia is known to be down to earth, nerdy and comic book reader at school.

As Black Cat she talks seductively, her way of hiding her real voice.

She got the idea from Catwoman in the Batman comics.

{...}

In Earth 1610, Felicia Hardy is a young cat burglar.

Walter Hardy, her father, and her mother Lydia Hardy take her under their wing in crime.

Unfortunately, as Felicia turned into a teenager her father was murdered.

She followed in her father's footsteps after his death to become the cat burglar.

Calling herself, Black Cat to seek vengeance for her father.

However, she soon learned that her father wasn't dead but was in prison.

Her mother covered up the story since he would never get out.

Felicia was upset that her mother lied to her but she couldn't let her father rot in prison.

So, she broke into prison and got her father out of there.

However unknown to her, her father fell into a disease and it was too late for him.

As he succumbed to his disease he told his daughter, "Never settle for less".

She was devastated as she witnessed her father's passing.

Lydia grew bitter after her husband's death and continued Felicia's remaining to be a thief.

With the help of a few mentors to teach her daughter how to fight.

Lydia would work in the shadows, her daughter's guide in crime.

[generalluxun]

Felix:Good character, Bad Narrative

Step1:Not Felix salt, like or hate him he's fine on the surface level.

We are here for his role in the show, and how *it* is sloppy and bad writing.

What is his role? You might be thinking gremlin, maverick, anti-hero or the like, but no. Those are anecdotal.

Felix is the plot bandaid.

ML spent plenty of time building up an interesting situation with secrets, allusions, active players, and ticking time bombs in the plot. The setup screams for so many possibilities, how will it all shake out? The audience is hooked!

The final answer? Felix.

Felix just shows up with all the knowledge learned off screen, confirmed on screen for us in the cheap seats, and then tells the appropriate prople at the appropriate plot time.

Marinette? Adrien? Any of the Miracuclass? Those the show has actually invested us in over previous seasons? No part in the discovery except to receive information and act on it.

He's basically just the author explaining the plot, filling in for an actual narrative involving the established caste.

It's a shame because -similar to Zoé- the role robs the character of veracity and individuality. His background is Adrien's copied homework with a few changes to fool the teacher, so he can be relevant and garner some 11th hour sympathy as the fourth abused child in the series.

A character there for less than 5% of the series shouldn't be your solution to your plot, in any medium.

Here's hoping we get more Felix in interesting situations in the future, rather than playing plot pusher.

[caralara]

Maybe I am wrong but I am not getting optimistic vibes anymore from you about BG ending soon.I have to admit I lost hope-I expected a kid to be there but it just angers me how hamfisted and set up all is but prople seem to be eating it up and Louis is playing along.I dont know why but this show hit me more then documentary,maybe because Briana was there too and they are implying all is good so I dont see any reason why they would change anything(esp now there is no reason to take her to court)

Hey hon! In this case I’m glad to tell you you’re wrong :) I’m still very much convinced that it will end eventually, and not only when Freddie is 18 lol

Remember that “taking her to court bc they started to fight/disagree” is just one of the possibilities of how they could end it. There’s loads other ones as well. An influencer deal for Briana for 23andme is an idea I think would be really fucking funny for example…

I am more sure of it ending than anything else in this fandom lol
