Ghosts and Greenery:

Sakumo being forced to watch as his son breaks around the edges and all but throws himself on his opponents blades despite never turning his weapons against himself. Not like Sakumo did. Never that.

Sakumo not telling him that even when Kakashi was home he spent as much time watching over Naruto as Sakumo himself did. Sakumo watching Naruto walk up to an ANBU in a hound mask and ask why he felt so sad.

Ughhhhhh. Right in my Hatake shaped feels. Those are sensitive you know.

one of their own has been left alone in a village of earth and trees when the sand and reefs have always been his birthright.

Red haired spirits traveling away from watery graves and leaving sun bleached bones unattended on sandy beaches for the first time in centuries.

Little naru hefting around a comically large flowerpot to give to kakashi “cuz orange flowers make me happy so now you’ll be happy too!

Plant growing competitions!!!

little Naruto would probably be really uncomfortable with human touch at first because the only kind he’s ever know is cold and sends shudders down even his spine sometimes. Warmth is something he’s always craved, but it’s lack has made it feel like too much. Though oddly enough, it’s only in certain situations. Lord thirds hand in his hair, Mizuki’s resting between his shoulder blades. Too much.

I hate everything. How DARE that hurt so much. Just fuckkkk

The only time warmth felt comfortable was when he pressed up against Hound-San, who felt enough like Uncle Sakumo that Naruto could forget the too hot feeling that made shoulder pats or side hugs feel so… weird.

Madras plant is called ash bringer and Tobiramas is snow cat

Madara called him a frigid cunt

And poor Naruto who already can’t focus is watching The Days of Our Afterlives play out in real time in front of him

Accidental rainforest cafe and stoned tree frog ref

Hashirama and Naruto hold funerals for the dead plants with the ghosts their named after crying in the background. Whenever a new generation is sent off, they get a speech for their “bravery and valor” and are thanked for their “sacrifice for the cause” which is making Kakashi happy.

Kakashi gets a fake plant after ten gens of ghost funerals and ghost-village wide send offs

They both do the knitting with senbon. Naruto makes the most garish neon sweaters that are so unfairly comfortable. Kakashi probably does a dog pattern. Omfg Pakkun with a little old man sweater

Sakumo is fully sold on the pair of Kiba-and-Akamaru taking care of his youngest pup for the rest of his life.

After the tenth WWE Smackdown between the two of them Naruto sits them down like toddlers and make them talk it out. Half of the time every week is dedicated to the Tobirama and Madara show because they never stop.

Sakumo having beef with a 13ish yr old (Rin) and the 13is yr old having beef with him

Epic rap battles of history: Konoha edition is giving me life

Naruto still being scared of ghost stories

Tobirama: I’m this close to killing you again Uchiha. I doubt your brother would even try to stop me considering how you’ve been treating him as of late. I also take issue with the tone and volume you’ve been speaking to him with. The way you place emphasis on his name in conversation is likewise unacceptable you pint sized, inconsiderate, rat faced bast-

while waiting for kakashi to show up for team meetings, absently says Hatake Kakashi three times (an easy way to get the ghosts attention) and the second he’s done Kakashi shows up. He starts doing it more and somehow every time it works.

Bites all of this

yes, yes i know edgeworth’s big wet eyes and loser boy personality have captivated us all, but listen. listen.

phoenix wright

phoenix “genuinely unable to reconcile the girl on the stand with the girl he dated for eight months, a cognitive dissonance so profound it’s ultimately explained by them being literally two different people, but which he first sits with for five years and does not talk about at any point to anyone” wright

phoenix “don’t mention that name to me. i don’t want to talk about it. i don’t want to think about it. i am just going to keep myself in this state of perpetual crisis mode focus on other people’s problems until eventually i die and get to hang out with mia on the astral plane and never have to deal with any of these emotions ever again” wright

phoenix “overnight loses his career and reputation and sense of identity while gaining an adopted, probably pretty traumatized eight-year-old daughter, and rather than leaning on his friends for help, or getting therapy, or taking any time to process any of this, he *checks notes* spends seven years dedicating all his free time and energy to investigating the weird fucking circumstances around it and maintains a friendship with the guy he suspects was behind it all” wright

phoenix "runs across a burning bridge and falls through it, half a day after the game establishes that he is terrified of heights, because his friend is on the other side of that bridge" wright

phoenix “i sure felt surprised. maybe i had my poker face on” wright

phoenix “looking back on it that was actually a pretty dark period in my life” wright

phoenix “don’t ask me how i got started. i don’t remember” wright

phoenix “only you stood still, your eyes calmly watching” wright

phoenix “sometimes, life just sucks” wright

The whole "A male is only born to the Gerudo once in a hundred years" presents a fascinating psychological crucible

By accident of birth, you're othered from the rest of your people. There is literally no one else like you. No one alive at least. You are born in the shape and in the shadow of long dead monarchs, Great Men.

But what does it mean to be a man in a society that is otherwise comprised entirely of women (I do not believe in gender essentialism; but I do believe in societal pressures). You are a boy and are constantly reminded of it. A boy without a father, without brothers; and when you become a man, you will never have sons of your own or even nephews. You're a single drop of masculinity in a ocean of mothers, sisters, wives, daughters, nieces; awash in femininity but forever separate from it. You are a man and that makes you king.

Before you're out of swaddling, you're placed on a pedestal. Elevated, in some regards. Afforded the greatest privileges available to your people. But they're not quite your people. However thinly it is presented, there's always going to be a degree of separation from everyone you know and care about. Your otherness is constantly reinforced, celebrated even. You're going to be a king. And you don't get a choice in the matter. You must stand alone, forever.

There are other men in the world, but they are not Gerudo. There are Gerudo, but none of them are men. The only people who could understand your struggle exist only as imperious statues and aspirational legends. They are Gerudo men, just like you, but they're not people anymore. They are kings, conquerors, shapers of history, children of destiny, great men. You are a man and that means you are destined for greatness.

Try not to crack under the pressure.

A funny thing happened at the doctor visit to check their fertility... Bailey and Quinton went in thinking they were planning ahead and getting prepared for the future. But the future popped up and knocked on their door just a little bit early. Ooops

SHE IS A FUCKING ICON

Shoutout to Violet Bridgerton to give birth to a Viscount, Artist, Traveler, Duchess, and a Feminist.

That shits tough.

[maverickcanine]

prince lucian, my little lavertus clone (/J HE'S NOT A REAL CLONE). it's like all of those potential genetics skipped laval and when straight to him.

while landyn is often in her own world, lucian is much more aware of the world around him. he's a thinker but in an "analyzing people and situations" kind of way. the world is just a puzzle to him.

i don't have a ton to say because i feel like i've said the most about him so far! but i love him

[il-predestinato]

SkySports Italia commentator Carlo Vanzini explains the origin of Charles Leclerc’s nickname:

Interviewer: “Charles himself, when I see the interviews, talks about it: ‘What's your nickname?’ ‘Il Predestinato’ (the predestined). How did that come to be?”

Vanzini: “First of all, it became popular when he won in Monza. I used it in Spa for his first victory, but I had already used it back when he was in Alfa Romeo. This is because it was born from a meeting when he was maybe 15 years old. Because the former person in charge, Massimo Rivola, chose to make him take a communication class, he brought [Charles] to Sky.

“So we had this meeting and then we had a kind of press conference and there I asked him: ‘Today you start from pole, your teammate fights for the title, what will you do?’

“(Charles answers): ‘I drive to win, so I’ll drive to win my race.’

“This answer, to us, was perfect because we’ve talked with him countless times. But for you, not as good of an answer, because it surely generates controversy: He won’t help his teammate! So, the answer ‘I drive to win, when the time comes to help my teammate or my team asks me certain things, I’m obviously available for the team’ - this is the answer that is less exciting for us, but you can accept without issues.

“Then this kid, when we get out, follows me and tells me: ‘It was the question that was wrong, because it will never be possible that we end up fighting for the title and it’s my teammate fighting for it instead of me.’”

(Thank you so much to @justheretoship for the Italian translation!)

And that is why Charles Leclerc is ‘IL PREDESTINATO.”
