#this is just peak character type to me

[lieutenant-amuel]

This is probably not that common but I honestly rarely like characters who are like me personality wise.

I just have to sing my praises for Shadow's VA in prime rq I think Ian hanlin does such a fantastic job as shadow I am just. consistently amazed. I think some previous iterations lean a little too hard into the growl but Ian hanlin brings a modernization to the character that I think works really well. Still very clearly Shadow but sounds more natural imo. Genuinely wonderful would love to hear him as shadow in other productions

Two young boys in downtown asked me if I was a Genshin Impact character, an old lady gave me a smiley thumbs up, a bus driver complimented me - My fashion truly has peaked recently <:

im happy that pokemon is a japanese game coz then i get to see tropes used in japanese media like silver being the tsundere. red and leaf being the silent protags. Ns existence in general. green being the cocky asshole turned big brother mentor. hop being the genki character with a tragic development. hikari being isekai-ed. cynthia being the beautiful big sister mentor. kotone-the protag-being the bubbliest sunshine who can have such dangerous pokemon. touko and nemona also being genki girls. lusamine being the hot sexy evil woman. wally being the shota who people will love and protect. steven being an oblivious heartthrob. the fact in every region we will have an ikemen character.

and then we have what is clearly the yandere trope: volo and kieran

not to be a milennial but harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban really is that bitch....

Well dot my t's and cross my i's. There is an Eden elder, straight up.

I just hope they're played as something more than "Evil McScreeble" or "Sympathetic B. Story" cause idk I feel like there's a lot you can do in the framework of sky

I still stand by my other stuff, tho. CRF content shouldn't be traded as fact, and shoving all focus of any story to just one character is laMe with a capital M

youtube video titled "TRY NOT TO SIMP CHALLENGE!!! (IMPOSSIBILE) (not clickbait)"

and it's just a 30 minute picture slideshow of Kaito Momota (a solid third of the pictures have him barefoot because his slippers kept falling off)

”love letter from the sea to the shore,” (Delaney Bailey) and “good old fashioned lover boy,” are azul love songs directed at Jamil but from different ends of the spectrum

mused on some thesis about how billions uses Indignity to illustrate that something someone does has failed / gone wrong in one way or another, and how the way this punishment is an Emotional one means that it can't land if the character just doesn't Feel that punished by it, or at least doesn't like attribute the supposed failure to something inherent enough to them to particularly stew on it, see for example people heightening/escalating their efforts to embarass someone if even that person doesn't Seem to sufficiently externally react in embarassment. winston able to truck along while (a) consciously crafting or maintaining some persona, of eternal and irrefutable dignity or whatever else is associated with "merit"/status, isn't much of a priority, when to him his skills speak for themself even though to others this is about their own merit in recognizing independently if winston's skills Happen to have use, and putting him down if he tries to speak to that anyways, and (b) he's also just able to move along from L's handed to him, whether he thinks it was warranted (like that he'll accept it doesn't count if he only thought it but didn't say it) or not (why can't you count to loyalty), when even if this resilience To How Others Treat Him isn't exactly peak realistic, that he thinks of himself in such a way that he doesn't need to be striving for some paramount official status, or think he's defined by never failing or indeed never possibly able to be seen within a "wow undignified / embarassing" framework so long as this winningness is recognized, or so long as anything is anything, is sure feasible enough.

but anyways thought about it like this thesis is just "i am cringe but i am free" like yeah that works

Thinking about how I said that not all sv fans are fun or good people got me thinking about how qi qingqi is kind of a divisive character and I don’t think she should be. Now this is an issue I primarily see in Shen jiu centric fics, but it does happen across the fandom. But a lot of people for some reason forgive male characters for having had incorrect opinions of Shen jiu and hating him for things he didn’t do, but don’t extend that same courtesy to qi qingqi. She sometimes gets treated like this self-absorbed, hateful bitch for no reason. Like we as the audience know Shen Jiu’s backstory, so we know what he’s guilty of and what he isn’t, and why he’s guilty of the things he is. Qi qingqi does not know any of this. She is relying entirely on her own interactions with him, rumors, and other people’s bad interactions with him to form a picture of what kind of person he is. The rumor mill and other peoples opinions state that he’s a rude, spoiled, serial child abuser (possible child sexual abuser) who frequents brothels. Shen jiu does nothing to defend himself against these accusations (again, we as the audience know why he doesn’t, but qi qingqi does not) so all she has to go on is what’s been laid in front of her. And she has no way of knowing that the information she’s been given is wrong. Couple that with the fact that they have an argument every time they interact, and what reason would she have to believe he is anything other than a dangerous misogynist? And I think he rhatred of of him is actually more justified than the hate the other peak lords feel because qi qingqi is the only (known) female peak lord in a sect dominated by men in a society dominated men, trying her best to raise her girls in an environment that’s safe from men, and she is faced everyday with having a martial sibling that is exactly the type of guy that her peak exists to protect these girls from all the while being able to do nothing about him because he is the second highest ranking member of the second largest second in the jianghu, and therefore one of the most powerful men alive. You really expect her not to hate him? Like I like a Shen jiu happy ending fic as much as the next person, but we gotta remember that just because Shen jiu wasn’t as bad a person as the other characters thought doesn’t mean he was good person. You can’t poor little meow meow him. You can sympathize with him, wish he had a better life, a second chance, whatever. But don’t let his Sad Boi fandom status make you hate one of the few female characters in the book. Don’t let the misogyny win.

i currently cannot play bg3 but i want to sosososo bad cause i see everyone's posts about it and it looks so fun and 100% up my alley. however the hilarious side effect of 2nd hand consuming media through mutuals/other people i follow is that i'm already like semi convinced gale or astarion will be the hyperfixation blorbo for me cause everyone likes them but idk if that's because they appeal to me or bc i only see ppl posting about the sad white men and not any of the other characters lol
