#this is probably an unoriginal thought but whatever

[trek-tracks]

There should have been a version of TNG's "Time's Arrow" where they run into Doc Brown in the late 1800s, but everyone's confused because wasn't he a Klingon?

-----------------------✰----------------------

ok first i’m gonna name ur bf so it doesn’t get confusing

HAHA

let’s call him

jack

guys i’m so unoriginal pls ignore :’)

anyways so you had been dating jack for a while

he had asked you to go to midtown’s winter formal together :) 

and ofc u didn’t tell any of the avengers bc u KNEW they wouldn’t react well

but of COURSE mr. peter parker was so excited that he had to open his big mouth

miles kicked him under the table but it was too late

“who asked you to the formal y/n?” natasha asked, a small smile on her face

you could FEEL yourself blushing

all you wanted to do was like sink into the floor

which is actually physically possible (though it’s an anomaly)

bruce told you that :D 

anyways you just shook your head 

so then HARLEY decided to go “jack lastname”

IM REALLY BAD AT NAMES IM SORRY

and you were ready to die

right then and there

if the grim reaper decided it was your time you would be fine with it

so tony goes “jack lastname… huh.”

“tony, please don’t – “ you tried, but he was already there.

“jarvis, can you run a background check on that kid.”

you were so embarrassed.

miles, sweet sweet miles tried to change the subject

“so um… steve. how was… your day.”

but then there was sam wilson butting in

“when is winter formal anyway? you know we gotta know so we can take pictures.”

and that made you, harley, peter, and miles groan

tony was still looking at some tablet or whatever.

“stark!” came thor’s booming voice. “i thought you said no electronic devices were permitted at the dinner table! if they were, i would be much happier!!”

“yeah yeah. well they’re not. i’m busy.” tony replied, dismissing the god with a wave of his hand.

and happy, who was right next to tony, kept leaning over and shaking his head or nodding.

SO EMBARRASSING

anyways once you got done with dinner you went to put the dishes in the dishwasher robot

idk why i said it like that but it’s basically this cool thing where you put the dishes in the sink and this robot will wash them & put them away

very nice bc doing the dishwasher is so much work sometimes.

but then wanda, nat and carol came in

and you KNEW they were gonna try to get you to talk

“i’ll tell you guys later.” you spoke, trying to end the embarrassment. 

“come on y/n! we want to see him at least.” carol said, tilting her head and raising a brow.

“ok fine.” you said, and pulled up a picture of jack. you showed it to them for like one second and then put your phone back in your pocket.

“hey wait! no fair! i wanna see! yeah.” came the voices of sam, clint, scott, and bucky as they tried to fight their way into the kitchen.

“that’s a hard no. maybe i’ll bring him here after the dance. harley peter miles and i were already going to stay over. then he could walk by you guys for TWO SECONDS and then do something with me.”

“alright.” said sam, crossing his arms and nodding.

“seems fair!” said bruce.

“perfect.” you replied, leaving the room to leave them all to inevitably gossip.

SKIP AHEAD

ok so it’s winter formal

and you strategically told jack to meet you there so that the avengers couldn’t bombard him during picture taking time.

so y’all had a super fun time

& u slow danced with each other 🤭🤭

it was super fun

but you were kind of dreading going back to the tower

you had told jack about being an avenger a few weeks ago

and he was super excited to meet them all

jack is like super sweet & really awesome

so it put you at ease a little bit.

so you went back to the tower with him

peter harley and miles had gone to get ice cream and were coming back later

so you did the retinal and fingerprint scan that would let you into the elevator

and you went up to the main floor (so you could get to your room)

but ofc they were all there

and so you took jack’s hand and brought him over to where they all were

he was lowkey freaking out

and bro

bucky and sam and clint and scott looked so unamused

tony and happy too

SO YOU JUST TRIED TO KEEP IT CIVIL

but they all were acting so clipped and like not charismatic 

idk

but wanda, steve and bruce were rly nice so that put jack at ease a little bit

anyways so then you took jack to your room

you guys had been planning to watch a movie together

he was kind of nervous because he didn’t think the avengers liked him

but you assured him they did

(at least you hoped)

anyways you turned on the movie & watched it

and it was soo funny so y’all were laughing a lot

BUT THEN THE DOOR SUDDENLY OPENED

and it was so loud you got freaked out fr

but then you saw it was tony, bucky, sam and steve.

“y/n. could you go out in the hall for a minute.” steve said.

“this is my room!!” you tried, but tony just pointed out to the hall. 

“i’m sorry jack.” you said to your boyfriend

jack was literally about to cry omg

poor thing

“don’t be mean.” you said as you left, taking extra care to give them all a withering stare

natasha and bucky had taught you that skill well bc you saw sam shiver HAHA

so you went to the hall and clint, scott, and natasha were standing there.

“what are they DOING??” you hissed at them.

“they’re just worried for you y/n. they wanted to talk to the kid.” natasha assured you, patting your shoulder.

“yeah, nothin’ to worry about!!” scott added, a big grin on his face

“well i really don’t trust that coming from you.” you replied

“well tony thought you guys were kissing in there!” clint laughed.

although it turned into an “ow” when natasha elbowed him

“he WHAT?!” you replied

“yeah, that’s why he came up here. he said he wanted the most intimidating ones to go make that kid afraid or something.” scott added. “not sure why he didn’t ask me…”

you gave scott a nod but then made your way back into your room, crossing your arms and raising a brow as tony, bucky, sam and steve turned towards you.

“hey y/n.” sam said, raising a hand to wave.

“are you guys done now? i’d like to finish the movie.” you said, trying to be stern.

“i think we are. right jack?” steve said, standing up and gesturing towards your boyfriend.

“yes sir! i mean steve. i mean mr. rogers?” he said, clearly scared out of his mind.

“yeah yeah. alright. get out please!!” you said, guiding them out of your room.

bucky was the last to leave, but despite you pushing him, he turned back to face your boyfriend.

“hey, you. hurt them in any way and i’ll find you.” he said, accompanied by his signature deathstare.

then he gave a little salute to you. 

“night kid. don’t stay up too late.”

and then he was gone.

“did he really mean that??” jack said, eyes wide.

“yeah, he did.” you said, sitting beside him and holding his hand. “isn’t that sweet?”

[divinemiracles]

may i ask why lunter shippers often criticize and/or dislike lumity so much ─ as in, the pairing itself, not the fans? it's extremely frustrating because i'm a multishipper (lumity main, but i very much love lunter too) and i don't understand why the shipping war over which one "should be true canon" isn't just one-sided from biphobes/antis/etc., because i was always under the impression that was the case. i've only ever experienced the fandom mainstream and i'm still new to spaces where shipping luz with boys, especially hunter, is acceptable. i'm curious as to why each side has negative shit to say about the other as if their opinion is absolute. hell, i'm still confused by how much people passionately hate huntlow this bad for being boring and unoriginal at worst; if it's problematic for the age gap then surely lunter is too (rhetorical)? anyway, i hope this ask comes across okay and respectful enough. i read your blog's description and pinned post so i hope i can find some answers through you.

~ bi-ship

Thank you for being so respectful!

There’s many reasons as to why Lunter fans dislike Lumity as a ship. It’s mainly due to a difference in shipping taste or out of spite since a handful of Lumity shippers are toxic (I like Lumity, it’s cute, but I fall under the difference in shipping taste category).

Lumity and Lunter are two completely different ships. One falls under the cutesy, wholesome, loving couple (Lumity) trope and the other falls under the angsty, heartbreak, storyline, and lore-based (Lunter) ship trope.

Many Lunter fans are mainly in the fandom and watch the show for the lore and Wittebane brothers, which is why they ship Lunter (for the Evelyn/Caleb parallels). If Lunter was canon, TOH would be a completely different story and have the Wittebane family as a major key to the story. But with Lumity, the story doesn’t go much into the brothers and just has a cute loving couple.

That’s where most of the criticism comes from. Lumity isn’t a ship that’s there for the lore, it’s just there for sapphic representation and normality. Also, since it was the first Disney sapphic couple involving a protagonist, it would be difficult to add it into lore-based angst since it would probably be passed as “too toxic” or whatever. That’s why they’re so lovey-dovey. Keep in mind this is just a thought. Lumity is not toxic at all, they’re just a normal couple.

With Huntlow, Lunter fans mostly hate it and criticize it for being boring and unoriginal like you said. It was rushed a lot and could have been dropped since it didn’t bring representation or relevance (Willow was never confirmed as Evelyn and they were never in-show confirmed or coded as bi/pan. I headcanon them as such but all they ever had were popular color palettes). It also depends a lot on perspective. It’s toxic to some and not toxic to others. I have a deep hate for it just for the unoriginality (bad boy turns into malewife for the shy girl that turns into a girlboss) and irrelevance but I don’t actually view it as TOXIC toxic since in my viewpoint, it’s just two normal people pushed too hard into a malewife x girlboss ship. I don’t like how Willow does sometimes resemble Belos but she’s far FAR better and healthier than Belos.

To sum this up: Lunter fans often dislike/criticize Lumity and Huntlow for being lovey-dovey, unoriginal, and not relevant to the plot. It all boils down to a difference in shipping interest. None of the ships are actually toxic (it’s mostly just people looking far too deep into them) but some people can view it as such and that’s fine as long as no one gets harassed. We all have different views.

[phantaemon]

Dreamed of a funny trope last night. probably very unoriginal, but I like it anyways. Here ya go:

The hero and the villain are fighting. When finally, the villain finds an opportunity to strike. They leap at the hero in an instant, grabbing their neck firmly and pin them at the wall violently. So violently in fact that the hero had hit their head on the wall and passes out. Confused as to why they feel no resistance, the villain eventually lets go of them. They wait, weapon still in hand -- or magic still ready --, so that they are able to strike at any movement. But nothing happens. The villain decides to check for the hero's pulse. They're still alive. What to do now? Tie them up? Throw them off a cliff? Sacrifice them to an entity in exchange of power? Well too late, they're awake now. But.... Something's wrong.

The hero looks up at the villain, seemingly confused. They don't frown at them, or shout, or even try to attack. "Where am I? What happened? Why am I here? Who are you?" So many questions thrown at once... the villain stayed there, standing, for an instant, before asking; "Do you remember your name?" "No.", the hero answers. They had forgotten about everything.

This was the perfect opportunity. The villain was the first person the hero saw after becoming amnesiac. This means they could be used, manipulated at will, a powerful tool for the villain's plan. There wasn't anyone to stop them anymore, because the enemy was on their side. So the villain brings the hero home, "nicely" giving them a place to stay. Living with them was the perfect opportunity to learn about their way of thinking, to know how to manipulate their thoughts and eventually get them to do whatever they need them to do. But as the villain slowly got to know the hero, they realized they had a lot in common. Whenever they spoke, the hero would understand them. When mentionning their backstory, the hero would empathize with them. Heck, the both of them even shared hobbies and a favorite ice-cream flavor.

The hero had grown onto the villain. It had come to a point where the villain cursed fate for making them enemies in the first place, not even giving them a chance to talk and maybe get along. The hero was the friend (or partner, if that's what we're going for) that the villain had always wanted. Their evil plan wasn't worth loosing that friend.

[blackbutler-readerinsertsandjunk]

Oh, allright! Then um... Could i request some romantic headcanons for Edgar with a reader from the 21st century? (Gen Z possibly, cuz i love the chaotic energy)

The reader is staying at Ciel's place for obvious reasons but ya

Hsjsbsksb i'm sorry it's unoriginal i know😔

shhhh, there's no such thing as unoriginal, I love this! <3

… What in the world are they wearing?? They’re so fashionable, but… well, also… that’s quite a bit of their skin which is exposed! Probably. Ah. Even if they’re dressed modestly, he’s not sure exactly what it is they have on. A hoodie will have him expressing confusion over strings which aren’t tied (like one expects them to be on a corset), and something as plain as a T-shirt will have him wondering where the rest of the garment is. Of course… he doesn’t mind any of it! Their clothing looks good on him. It’s simply a shock to see someone dressed so differently than he’s used to.

One of his first questions is to ask if they have any literature from the future. Surely they must have brought some books with them, right? What else do people do for entertainment?? Pfffffff. He’s especially interested in the poetry of years to come, imagining it to be incredibly romantic. Whatever they give him, it doesn’t take a genius to know he’ll devour it and come back asking for more once he’s finished it. Hopefully they’ve got a few good books or a great memory about the ones they like!

He finds it hilarious that (Name) is proving themself a nuisance to the Phantomhive estate. Whatever shenanigans they’re pulling, it’s a guarantee that word of it will get back to him… sometimes from the lips of this person themself. That’s the best of it; when he gets to hear straight from them what they did and how much trouble they were and all the details. He can’t help it, he’s a gossip! As long as their hijinks weren’t too harmful, it’s all in good fun, isn’t it? (Of course, Ciel and his endless irritation would like a word with that notion.)

Steals their phone if only because they have various downloaded videos and ASMR tracks on it. The videos probably make him laugh, and the ASMR… need any more be said? He’s tired! Who would have thought that some noises would just be so comforting as to put him right to sleep? Not that he needs help sleeping. It’s just become relaxing to him. Particularly if he’s allowed to fall asleep next to them in bed, with the sounds of, say, a heavy rain playing from their phone.

He personally apologizes if they stir up any mischief with regard to his friends, but… the expression on his face makes it pretty clear he’s only apologizing so that his darling time traveler’s actions don’t cause too much drama. If he found it funny, he has to bite his lip to avoid breaking out into a smile whilst saying he’s sorry. Later in private, it’s very likely he’ll praise (Name) for their creativity and fun-loving spirit.

Hii Can i request glitchy red having a s/o that's similar to him? (Reader got cruelly removed by their game and got replaced) also i really like your hcs:3 keep up the writing!! :D

ofc ofc !!! ty for requesting. Once again these sort of stray into general thoughts and headcanons abt glitchy sometimes but oh well i have just learned to accept that tht just sort of Happens when i make these.

i try to make the reader / s/o in all of the headcanon posts very blank templates but if i didn't i'd probably go ham with the implied backstory. Maybe. but for now its just a "Make your own and inject it into the headcanons" typa post.

glitchy red with a similar s/o !!! Love wins

♡ glitchy honestly didn't... know something like him could even Happen again. i mean, he does and he always secretly hoped that one day someone, anyone in his game would gain sentience suddenly so he'd at least have someone else to talk to instead of himself and whatever player he had atm. and that makes you... very interesting and special to him.

♡ suffice to say, you two have a lot of shared grievances probably, and glitchy is a very rant-y person. both of you will shittalk and rant and complain about your similar situations and bond very fast over it. honestly, that's probably how you two got closer in the first place. Easy way into glitchys heart: Bitching abt things ig <3

♡ in a similar but more positive vein, you two can and will often ramble about things you did in your respective games - or even just rambling abt you two's games in general if you yourself didn't come from a pokemon game. although glitchy is very cynical and apathetic to all of it now and knew that none of the pokemon or npcs in his world really had feelings, he still likes to explain the mechanics and the pokemon to you... he wishes he could've taken one home as a pet for you two, but would that even work? would it even recognize him? would it be anything more than a piece of coding that can no longer work due to being forced into a physical form? he thinks about this more than he should.

♡ ... aaanyways, on a lighter topic, due to that train of thought he probably gets you two a cat or something, after extensive research and reading bc he does not want to accidentally handle any animal poorly. it's name is up to you but if you just wanna go with whatever glitchy chose it's name is like, mittens. or something really basic. or it's pikachu/pika/chu or something because as much as he loves being free he does feel odd without pokemon so naming a cat that sort of helps but not really.

♡ i like to think if you did have a pokemon or a favorite though it'd be eevee just to match how glitchys favorite is probably pikachu or one/all of the 3 starters bc he's unoriginal

♡ do you think their replacements date. This isn't even a headcanon this is just something i went "oh if they both have replacements... wait."

♡ frlg red and whoever the hell replaced you kiss under the moonlight. every time we touch amv . Ok anyways back to the actual headcanons i apologize

♡ assuming you two both somehow Physically Manifested irl and aren't just somehow visiting or talking to eachother in you twos digitized forms, you are both adjusting to the real world. and trying to help eachother with it. But since neither of you are used to it, it isn't going that well. Very odd and weird couple that look unreal, while ones also glitching out of reality every 5 seconds casually having a walk in the park. It's normal. Love wins

♡ presumably, you also are as touch starved and affection-starved as glitchy due to your whole ordeal being so similar. you two will be ALL over each other. PDA and general affection and touch are CONSTANT. no matter what. you two are so lovey-dovey it's almost comical

♡ i've stated this in a few other headcanons but legit do anything affectionate to glitchy and he'll become redder than his mfing clothing. dude is so touch-starved and is also really easy to fluster and he hates it. with this s/o specifically, though, i like to think since you two are similar he'll absolutely try to get back at you by immediately doing anything to fluster you back, and it probably works... you two are just incoherent blushing messes at the end of it all

♡ most of these headcanons are just "Mutual Problems: The Thread" and i find that very funny. what being undersocialized, replaced, toyed with, abandoned, and traumatized for decades does to two mfs

♡ adding onto that you both are probably clingy with each other and get a bit of separation anxiety. glitchy is like. "Where is my fucking spouse." in his head any time you are not within his sight. my wife is soft and i like her post but in Glitchy Red and in Gender Neutral terms

♡ glitchy is sort of weird with romance. like, he knows that people date. but he's not... really socially aware of much of anything. anything he knows is through osmosis of his players or of things he overhears sometimes or something. due to this he probably just copies what he sees in media and is very cheesy about it and will give you bouquets and flowers he picked off the ground. Alternatively and probably more in character, he just doesn't do that and is very casual about his affection and love due to not knowing How To properly give affection. it's a lot of mumbled "I love you"'s and cuddles during the evening. small stuff like that.

♡ wait no. since you have very similar issues to red... concept: relationship dynamic where one person is very casual abt it and the other person is very extra and romantic and gives everything they can to the other person. you are the extra and romantic one. it makes glitchy so confused and he feels like he's undeserving of it, but it makes him fluster sm. You were from a dating sim game you have to be extra about romance /j ( unless you want it to be serious backstory i guess. reader DDLC monika type beat... )

♡ sometimes he asks what you did to players. and i .. i actually do like you being like. monika sorta where you're more clingy and attached to players. So if you choose that to be the case he finds how different your approach is to that odd. but he supposes your game was probably not as fucking glitchy constantly, or at least wasn't known for its glitches. he's partially envious of that, but part of him is glad you didn't have to endure the hell he did.

♡ you two do get sometimes recognized among the general public but are assumed to be cosplayers. whether this pisses you off or not is up to you, but i think glitchy has very mixed feelings about it. he just scowls and has a look of visible confusion on his face. he Doesn't really like socializing with anyone other than you tbh so this doesn't help, nor does he really enjoy talking about or remembering pokemon without his ok ( Good luck with that when its like the highest grossing multimedia franchise ever RIP glitchy red 2011-2023 )

♡ once again. relationship dynamic idea. you being the more outgoing social one Who is secretly sort of cracking from pressure and red being the brooding awkward blunt one. imagine you going to cons bc you like the attention from getting recognized as yourself. red is begrudgingly at your side rolling his eyes bc he doesn't like cons, probably ( although he will eye the pokemon merch with both disdain and intrigue... he will come home with a 10 foot tall pikachu and charizard plush ). people ask for pics w you sometimes. they all fuck up bc red will not allow you to leave his side even when ur taking pictures he doesn't wanna be in, and as i said in other posts, Any footage of him comes out looking like cryptid photos / they just get really fucked up in processing in... various weird ways. he finds it funny and is oddly proud of being able to screw photos up, but he'll eventually get juuust out of shot if you really want to take pictures w other people

♡ Do not put either of you two around technology, it'll fucking explode near either of you ( probably, anyways - assuming you're also glitchy and unstable like. well. glitchy is. but i assume any code made manifest into physical form like you two, glitched or otherwise, would not be able to use technology without it fucking up a little. )

♡ although glitchy can be sort of a dick sometimes, he tries to never be that way arnd you. if he makes you upset he like, immediately feels bad and apologizes, and will be there to calm you down and comfort you

♡ you prob prefer to call glitchy by red, i just mostly use glitchy for him when writing these posts for Clarification's Sake. he does like being referred to you by name, though. the way your voice just... says it. idk, it makes him smile. your voice is nice, in his eyes. your everything is nice in his eyes, really.

♡ he sometimes gets really really worried that one day he'll wake up and you'll start repeating all of your actions and words, like. becoming an npc with no depth. it scares him a lot, because this life is too good for him in his eyes. sometimes he has sort of panics about it and you have to calm him down - which isn't too hard, but it's just easy for him to overthink about negative outcomes and about "oh god what if all of it was fake" types of scenarios

♡ ending this on a lighter note than... that, uhhh! i think he's a little in love enough that whenever you r away and he gets lonely, he might honestly look into the game you're from and act like a mfing in love fangirl ( aka, only looking at the parts you appear in and just intaking everything about you in your source material asap. you look so cute in the artstyle of the game, too... man. he's a little lovestruck. a little fruity, even. this is even funnier if you take the dating sim / visual novel backstory into account bc glitchy Would download the game just to romance you. And you come home and see him doing that and are just like. Flustered and confused and 50 different emotions while glitchy just goes "I can explain, I swear." ).

♡ breaking news red from pokemon red and [ y/n ] from [ insert game ] are real and Are kissing. Maybe even under a tree. do what you will with this info

[zalia]

For the OTP ask

Unoriginal and predictable for my part yes but I like seeing u enjoying the collective Blorbo so

Osiris

i am always happy to ramble about Osiris because I too am predictable XD This is also for @vallaragna who asked for Osiris as well!

favorite thing about them He cares *so much*. He is bad at showing it at times, and hides it with the veneer of arrogant narcissism, but he is so wholly dedicated to defending his people. And he has a rock solid moral core. I think with Saint being so nice and openly caring, it's easy to forget that it was Osiris who was seeing the Eliksni as more than just enemies way back before he even became Vanguard Commander and calls Saint out several times on his hatred for them. He's a good person. He's just not always a very nice one.

least favorite thing about them It's hard to think of something because even the negative parts of his personality are things that I love because they make him more interesting. I guess, we do have a joke amongst my friends which is 'But what about Osiris' needs?' because god, the man can be very self-centred and a diva, and that bleeds into any fic I write with him. He can and will make himself the centre of any narrative and from a writing perspective, it can feel very self-indulgent.

favorite line I love the line from Season of the Seraph where he snarls at Clovis to keep his damn thoughts away from Saint. It's so protective, a crack that shows us something beyond what he tries to project to the world.

brOTP I am very invested in his friendship with Lord Shaxx XD There's not a huge amount in canon, but there's such a casual vibe between them in the Devil's Ruin quest. Also we know that the Speaker suspected Shaxx of being one of Osiris' followers (and in the comic Shaxx is right there with Ikora trying to stop Osiris from getting exiled), so I figure there is some closeness there. Also love him being friends with Eris and Mara. We got a glimpse at the closeness between him and Mara in Season of the Seraph, and I really hope we get some with Eris too!

OTP Saint-14. No matter what else I write, there's always gonna be Saint in the background (even when I write things from before they meet each other). They just obviously love each other so much.

nOTP I don't really have one honestly. If something can be written well enough, I'll probably give it a chance, although I have my own specific ideas about his relationships with other people. I guess I would struggle seeing him and Ikora?

random headcanon Obvious to anyone who has read my fics, this man is autistic and really fucking tired. He also has a sweet tooth.

unpopular opinion Not something I've seen on Tumblr, but in my occasional dives into Reddit, I have seen people complain that he isn't as cool and badass as he is 'supposed to be' in the really early lore. Blah blah, depowered, blah blah, whatever. What they wanted was apparently an all-powerful asshole genius who was flawlessly 'logical' and... look, it is the same type of guy who reveres Elon Musk. But just... besides showing a complete lack of understanding of how characters have biases in how they talk about things, they seem to hate the very things that make Osiris fascinating as a character. He's deeply flawed, massively traumatised, and very emotional. Also gay. Something tells me this may be influencing certain opinions.

song i associate with them This is the question I always fear because I suck at it XD Not sure specifically for Osiris, but A Good Song Never Dies, by Saint Motel, is a great song for Guardians in general.

favorite picture of them

This concept art I adore!

Masterlist: Marvel | The "Playlist"

░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░

Y/n sighed, looking at the lousy sketches in front of her. Groaning she sent her head into the desk.

"Stupid, Stupid, Stupid..." She grumbled into the papers, "fuckin portraits...fuckin landscapes...fuckin...art..."

"That bad."

Y/n looked up seeing MJ beside her, "mhm." Y/n answered.

"Shame seems like a you problem," MJ spoke doing her own little thing in her sketch book, she at least getting ideas down for the portrait for the art show: though MJ would never actually enter this was Y/n's big break: this was the college ticket.

"ugh...." Y/n groaned, "I need inspiration, it doesn't have to be completely new but still..."

"Do one of those superheroes," MJ told, "Or I don't know redo one of your old pieces."

Y/n shrugged, "That's too unoriginal." Y/n protested.

MJ shrugged, leaving Y/n to her own devices of struggling. By the end of the class she had a few scratchy sketches down, some people she saw on the daily. She tossed her sketchbook down on her history desk, opening it back up to scribble.

"Hey! Is that the Punisher!?"

Y/n turned her body to see Flash, he snatched the book from her, "Hey!" She complained about getting put but he had already ran across the classroom, flipping through the pages.

"What do you got a crush on the guy?" Flash protested.

"Ew! No! Give me the damn book Flash!"

"Ooo! She's pretty! She's a blonde right? I bet she's a blonde! Sweet I was right!"

He was most likely talking about Karen Paige, who ironically had her own page in the sketchbook, a few sketches, and a few finished painted pieces, nothing huge.

"Is this one your boyfriend? I bet this one's your boyfriend- he's so old."

Y/n finally caught up with him grabbing the back of his shirt causing him to fall back as she took the book from his hands.

"For your information, Father Lantom is a nice man and your super fucking gross. Go take a shower." Y/n protested stepping over Flash and returning to her seat before the bell rang.

She zoned out most of the class, picking the next color scheme for a portrait, but it drifted away from her as she looked at it more. It not suiting her taste.

Luckily with the start of her struggles came the end of the day, she walked to her locker in a sludge, opening it lazily and stuffing useless textbooks inside, exchanging them for a much larger sketch pad. Making her way out of school. Walking down the street and turned the corner before getting in the black van with a sigh of relief.

"Rough day at school?" He asked.

Y/n nodded, "Slept threw the thirst three."

Frank shook his head, starting up the van and driving off, "Look I said I'd try and understand you more-"

"My grades haven't dropped, don't worry," Y/n spoke looking at him as he kept his eyes on the road.

"What's keeping you up and stressing you out this much?"

Y/n sighed, "Art class."

"Thought you liked finger paintin' and shit."

Y/n just gave him a "really?" look as he laughed it off, "Seriously come on. Spill it."

Y/n looked back towards the road, "Art show, meaning art gallery, meaning art walk...senior year...which means?"

"There scoppin' everybody out," Frank answered.

"Right on key." Y/n spoke, "Teacher wants me to submit a portrait piece, I don't have a subject to paint."

"Do Liberman or somethin'" Frank suggested.

"Already did him when we were stuck there for so long, made a good figure drawing when you tied him to that chair in the beginning."

"Karen?"

"Karen Paige has a full Page in my book already, she's pretty, just not sticking right," Y/n told.

"Madani, or Curt."

"Madani rather paint my blood all over the page after the shit I pulled on her," Y/n spoke, "Did Curt for another assignment."

He stopped at a light, "Well then your shit out of luck."

Y/n shrugged, "Unless."

"Unless?" Frank asked, looking over at her.

"Unless...?" Y/n spoke, shrugging towards Frank, hands coming up to gesture towards him, "I still never done you..."

"me?" Frank asked, then scoffed a laugh as the light changed color, "Nah kid I'm not..." art" material."

"But you could be, I'll make you look good." Y/n tried to persuade, but Frank shook his head as he shifted in his seat.

"And what are you gonna tell them? I got the "Punisher", who happens to be my dad, to pose for a painting?" Frank questioned.

Y/n shrugged, "Doesn't sound like the craziest thing that's happened in New York."

"It's not a good idea kid."

"Come on! When's the last time anyone come after you, no one probably remembers you by now anyway- Well- That sounded harsh, that wasn't meant to sound harsh." Y/n explained, "nothing crazy, I swear, just let me get the canvas tommrorw and I'll sketch you out how ever you want-"

"Tomorrow's Saturday," Frank spoke reffering to there usual breakfast in the morning.

"Perfect. I'll draw you at the dinner." Y/n told, "nice background."

He took a quick glance at her as he looked out for traffic, a glint of hope in her eyes as she smiled at him.

Frank on shook his head, "Alright. "

"Yes!"

Frank smiled, Y/n talking about how she'd lay out the sketch, and something about a color scheme.

Everything was the same after that, they went home, talking about miscellaneous things, nothing really important. They followed the usual schedule.

Y/n sat at the table in the kitchen, knees up to her chest with a book in her lap and pencil in her hand. Frank making coffee for himself and getting her a cup of orange juice: the usual drinks for the evening after school.

"You going out to work today?" Y/n questioned, her lines sounding harsh on her paper.

"Yeah," Frank answered, pouring his own cup of coffee

Y/n nodded, erasing the line on her paper, she glancing over to him quickly and then back at her paper, creating a new line which snapped her pencils led.

Groaning under her breathe she set her stuff down and went to go find a sharpener in her room.

Frank leaned against the counter, looking at the sketch book, Y/n had a larger one under it. Y/n's eraser and broken pencil sitting on the side.

No...he shouldnt.

But he could.

But no.

But then again-

Taking a drink off his coffee he walked over. Flipping open the first page. This was wrong. Right?

This was harmless...right?

Either way he still flipped through the book at random, from the end towards the mid section to the front, alot of diffrent people, kids her age, portaits filling pages, some painted some sketched. He smiled at the page filled with pictures of Karen. Y/n had indeed done a page of Karen Paige, real humorous.

He flipped through it leisurely occasionally, hearing for any approaching footsteps, but ears were granted with a curse word and a groan in pain.

"You alright kid?" Frank called to her.

"Yeah!" She called back, "Dropped some crap on my foot is all."

That gave Frank more time to go through this book of Y/n's. Most pages stiff due to the acrylic paint that had dried and hardened on the page. Some just as normal as paper with pencil sketches littering them. On occasion he turned the book around to look at the landscape orinated pages.

Frank could only scufflle a small humorous chuckle under his breathe occasionally, seeing one or two sketches of him here or there. But that few turned into many, and soon he was loosing count.

He realized the dates at the corner of the pages, when everything was going to shit, Liberman, Madani, Curt, shit even Russo was spewed across the pages, both before the Carousel and after, face scared up and a diffrent look in his eye.

It made Frank...uneasey. The protrayal of human emotion to real, like it sat there infronf of you.

Frank shifted his feet, taking another drink of his coffee.

What made him uncomfortable were the sketches of him as the pages passed with time, had he really looked so blank every time you picked a pencil up? Had he never held a smile long enough for her to draw?

But she had plently of pencil sketches, certain spots painted in with a flat dark red color, an obvious mention to blood. Even a few finished pieces, where he was covered in blood.

Frank flipping through the gruesome portaits of others as well. Some people he knew were dead because well...he killed them.

They became less gruesome fairly quickly, kids her age filling the pages, most likely people she was in classes with.

Not to mention.... boy was drawn with care and the only one painted on the two page spread.

Mhm.

Frank turned the page, the string of drawings ending, Just in time too, Y/n walked back in he quickly pulling away from her book and walked back towards the pot of coffee as he quickly chugged, and pour himself another cup.

She slid back in her seat, sharpening her pencil.

"What did you drop?"

"Mhm? My mason jar filled with pencils on my foot." Y/n sighed a bandage over the top of her foot, "Pencil stabbed me."

She grabbed the orange juice from the table and took a quick drink,

"So whens this art show?" Frank questioned.

"Oh." Y/n spoke, "You wanna come?"

"Well Im gonna be in it, why not." Frank smiled, strolling over to the table, setting his full mug on the table and finally taking his seat across from her.

"Just know you get busy." Y/n spoke, "You know. Being the big bad punsiher."

Frank chuckled, Y/n smiling as she opened her book back up.

"Runnin low there?" He questioned.

Y/n looked back at him and laughed lightly, "Yeah. I am. I'll scrape together a few more dollars for a new one. Jose always lookin for extra muscele to bring in produce for the restraunt anyways."

Y/n went to work as they talked, "anyways I'll grab you a ticket for the show, it's at the school. Starts at 6:30, doors close at 7."

"When's it?" Frank questioned, Y/n looking up from her drawing.

"Mhm....month and a half ish. Nothing too far off." She responded.

They back to there nothing more but filling the air talk for the next hour till Frank went and picked up Chinese for dinner.

Y/n trying to teach Frank how to use Chopsticks once again but ended in Frank just usuing a fork instead, the end of dinner ending in the two chopstick and fork fighting for the last Posticker, Frank winning this time.

But as time pasted and afternoon became night, Frank having to go "to work". He kissing her head goodbye as she sat in her usual spot.

"Don't stay up all night."

Y/n nodded, "Yeah."

"I'll be back in time for breakfast."

Y/n nodded again, he ruffling her hair before he left. She sat at the table in silence. Soon it got to much, silence was never good.

She got up with her things, and walked to her room, grabbing the small radio on her way.

In her room she went through a drawer, pulling out the primary colors along with black and white. They werent top quality but they'd do. Opening up her sketch pad she sat down, turned the radio on and got to work.

She wasn't sure how long she went for, and wasn't sure when she went to bed, but sometime during the early morning she fell into her bed, not bothering to change or clean her hands and forearms of dried paint.

Frank had come home an hour after she passed out on the bed. He opening her door seeing her lamp on still, just to realize she was passed out in the bed.

The scene look a physco murder coming to kill a little girl, Frank still covered in blood and with that famous vest on. He standing in the door way with an emptied gun in hand. Yet it was him simply checking on her.

Frank took off his blood littered clothes, closing any wounds before he got into the shower, washing all the blood down the drain.

He'd come out clean once again, and exhausted, dressing himself he made his way back to Y/n's room. Walking over he carefully sitting in the bed he took off her shoes, setting them on the floor.

She shifted slightly in her sleep, nothing too big, Frank carefully pulling her her arm out of her sweater. Pullinv it over her head and off the other arm and hanging it up at the end of the bed. Pulling the comforter from under her he laid it on her. Essentially tucking her in to bed.

He left, going to turn the light off on her desk, her desk littered with few art supplies she had: but had been in the middle of painting some still life she quickly put together while he was pouring himself some coffee.

He turned off the lamp, making his way ou the room and closing the door behind him.

The next day came quicker than usual, Y/n up first, turning on the coffee pot as she yawned, walked into the bathroom to brush her teeth, sighing at the sight of a washed bullet in the basin, she picked it up and put it in a nearby mason jar, the collection growing

"Mornin."

"Hm.." Y/n spoke back her mouth full, handing Frank his toothbrush.

She finished before him, rinsing her mouth and washing her face with water before she went back into the kitchen. Pouring two cups of coffee for the two of them and set them on the table.

They had their usual quiet cup of coffee, both trying to wake up in the morning. Y/n sighed finishing her's Frank not far behind in his own.

"How was work?" Y/n asked.

"Same shit diffrenet day." Frank spoke.

Y/n chuckled as she picked up the cups putting them in the sink.

"Pancakes?" He questioned.

"Yeah, sure," Y/n spoke, "Meet you at the van?"

"Yeah."

Y/n cleaned the two mugs before she left to take a shower and get dressed, she grabbing a sketchbook and her small pencil pouch, Frank already in the van when she got it.

"Hope your havin a good hair day." Y/n smiled lifting up the sketchbook, "You didn't forget that? Did you?"

Frank shook his head, "There's no gettin out of that one huh?"

"Nope." Y/n spoke popping the P as she smiled.

They were usuals there, the woman working the small dinner telling them there booth was open. Coffee served to the both of them.

"Usual babes?" The woman questioned.

"Yes Ma'm." Frank spoke.

"On it." The woman spoke, walking to the counter area where she pushed back the little latch gate.

"Jeffery! I need two Castiglione Specials!"

"Yeah yeah woman!"

Y/n laughed shortlu drinking some of her coffee, sketch book open and on her raised knees. Her back pressed against the wall. Pencil now in hand.

"That ever creep anyone out?" Frank asked.

"What?" Y/n asked looking down at her book, then back up at him taking details in on his face and on his posture.

"That." Frank spoke, "the starin."

"I suppose." Y/n answered, "guess why I don't have a boyfriend."

He shook his head with a smile, "stay away from boys."

Takinga drink off his coffee Y/n smiled, "You are a boy."

Frank nodded, as he drank his coffee, pulling away from his mug with a satisfied sigh, "Exactly. I know how they are."

Y/n chuckled, "Well lucky for you Im too drowned in my own work to pay attention to boys."

Frank smiling as he shook his head: Y/n looking down at her paper and then back at him again, then back at her paper.

"Movin too much?" Frank questioned.

"No. Not at all." Y/n told, "I have trouble. Drawing you smiling."

Y/n grabbed her mug as she took a quick drink.

She flatly came out with it, "I don't see you smile all to often. When I do."

She paused taking another quick drink setting it down, "I think I rather be there than in here."

Y/n went back to drawing without another care. Like she hadn't said anything that would affect anything.

"What does that mean?"

Y/n looked up from her sketch book, "what?" She questioned.

"I think i rather be there than in here." Frank repeated.

She thought for a moment, "Oh. Yeah that. You know when you saved me. You know when you first met me? What? I was 11?"

Frank shrugged, "Yeah."

"You were the first person that smiled at me in a non-creep way." Y/n told, drinking the end of her coffee, "Rather. You know relish in that rather than be busy in a book."

"You think Im never gonna smile at you again?"

Y/n was silent, "I uh...don't really know. "

"That's bullshit and you know it." Frank started, "I ain't goin no where, and I'm not lettin you go. You're my kid, my responsibility. I'll be here and I'll be happy because of you."

Y/n shook her head no in confusion.

"Because Im proud of you, and you contuine to make me proud. I'll be smilin as you walk across that stage, cap and gown, doin better than I ever could. Not once but twice. You unlike me, you're gonna make a name for yourself. Hell better than I could ever do for myself."

"I know it. You're gonna make somethin out of yourself. Doin somethin good."

The two plates were served with eggs bacon and pancakes.

Y/n smiled smally, the coffee's being refilled and then the woman ledt.

"I don't think I'd even be here if it wasn't for you." Y/n spoke, "Probally. I don't know be a stripper or some shit."

Frank laughed shortly, taking a drink of his fresh coffee, "This shits crap."

"It's why we drink it.' Y/n smiled picking up her cup snd holding it up in the air

"It is. It is." Frank laughed he bringing his cup against hers as they clinked. They laughing as they started eating.

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hi dear librarian! 1/? I was wondering if there's a term to describe a phenomenon that plagues so many films nowadays and partially responsible for the downfall of BBC Sherlock and MCU: it appears that the creators/screenwriters are afraid of or uncomfortable dealing with strong negative emotions. It's very obvious in Sherlock S3,S4, and MCU after Infinity War. They immediately interrupt an emotional scene with a quip, joke, or a solution. It really disturbs the plot flow, emotional buildup,

2/? and the tension of the show. E.g., in Sherlock S3E1 the reunion scene and the underground scene, in S4 the ghost Mary non-stop quips before the emotional hug. In S2, they really shouldn't have revealed Irene or Sherlock survived immediately after the event. I don't know what the writers were afraid of. Without a proper buildup, the resolution doesn't feel satisfactory. I'm very happy that in GOTG 3 they avoided this problem and it's probably the only MCU film worth seeing recently. 3/3 Another example is the Thor series. I know Thor 1 has many plot flaws, but they got the aesthetics right and with a Prometheus type of self-sacrifice, it feels like a proper fusion of technology and mythology. But later they wrote Thor as a laughing stock for his depression and in his own 3rd and 4th film, every remotely serious emotional scene was undermined by something. Just why?! That's part of the reason people say MCU doesn't feel relatable anymore. Thx for reading and stay cool!

Hey Nonny *HUGS*

Thank you for this insightful ask, and my answer is essentially this: shareholders and studio meddling, and probably bad writing by people who think they know better. A lot of the MCU, for instance, is SO boring and repetitive right now because they're too afraid, it seems, to stray from "what is safe", stuff that won't have people bitching at them, or they're trying too hard to recapture what made the Infinity Saga so amazing. They spent TOO long being praised and in turn stopped trying so hard, and under Chapek, dude was a greedy bastard who worked Feige to stress. I'm glad that they pulled back, it seems, and I hope it stays that way, hopefully so they can make new movies up to the quality of GOTG 3 again. Studios like Dreamworks and Indie studios are taking risks, and it's paying off, because people are bored with the sanitization of Disney and Marvel. Everything has to have no true villain in Disney.

That's not to say I don't still enjoy Disney, I do, but Marvel as-of-late has put out more flops than fantastics. And I suspect some of it is studio and shareholder meddling. It's a miracle Gunn got to do what he wanted for GOTG3, and I'm glad he did. With Thor 3 I feel like Taika got raked over the coals because he had to follow whatever plan they wanted for his vision. I dunno. Marvel for me is so hit-and-miss these days.

As for Sherlock... I think part of it was BBC meddling and another was ego-tripping, because Mofftiss continually put out winner after winner of seasons, so they thought, because just the TWO of them got an Emmy for TAB, well, they're good enough to get it for a WHOLE SEASON! (which, for the record on my opinion, I think Mofftiss are better at ONE SHOT episodes, not an entire series on their own... they run out of ideas and then throw whatever their weird fanboy fantasies want, and without a third writer to reign them in, we get S4). So yeah, that's what I mean by bad writing as well. I BELIEVE Moffat or his wife owns Pinewood Studios that they film in, so like... it's literal studio meddling, LOL. But yeah sometimes a writer or director can also be too big in their britches, and whatever they say, goes.

So yeah, I dunno. It's honestly a mix of everything and fatigue with the unoriginality of content these days. I think that's why I don't really watch anything anymore unless a trailer REALLY grips me, or it's recommended to me by a Lovely. I stick mostly to old-faves because I know I won't be disappointed, or fandom-related content.

What do y'all think?

[samsa19]

is dazai a ghost?

surprise surprise, i'm unfortunately not dead (yet). and before you call me batshit crazy for the title, hear me out. 

because I can tell you I didn’t stop at batshit crazy, I'm probably clinically insane.

((note: if someone had already posted this theory, please let me know. I usually do a quick search before I post my theories, but I didn’t get to do that this time and I’d hate for someone to think I would claim an unoriginal theory to be my own.)) 

anyways, here goes the theory. spoiler break below for the manga >>

These panels were pretty shocking to me. 

To be honest, the first times I’ve seen Dazai appear in Atsushi’s conscious/subconscious, I thought it was just part of his mental shift. As others have probably suggested before, I thought that Dazai was slowly replacing his old headmaster. Like a shift from his past trauma to the inspiring motivation and confidence that Dazai (somehow) instilled within him. I thought that was a nice touch on Asagiri’s part. 

But okay, Dazai has materialized out of nowhere for way too many times to be explained by an Atsushi’s-mini-epiphany and a shrug of the shoulders. And this can be taken storywise as well, because at this point Dazai’s appearance has moved the plot too much. 

So like any other mentally healthy person I think there are two main ways to explain Dazai’s apparent incorporeality. 

1. The Book, which you saw coming from ten miles away 

You can probably piece this together before I explain anything. But being the annoying entitled jackass I am, I will proceed to do so anyway. And generously tell you why I disagree with it. 

Dazai has demonstrated his nullification on the book through BEAST already, and it wouldn’t be strange if another version of himself had that same influence on this very universe. Disregarding whether or not this universe is the “OG” universe, I think there’s valid reason to believe that #our-verse Dazai has contacted other Dazais to make short, somewhat-materialized appearances in this world. 

But, thinking about how this can work, is somewhat difficult. 

Firstly, in order to transcend universes I think we can reasonably assume that we must have a Dazai have ahold of his universe’s Book. So it goes like: you give a Dazai a book -> he contacts his clone -> he teleports -> he headpats Atsushi or whatnot.

However.  

Let’s recall BEAST as an example. It was stated that it took place in a timeline where Dazai somehow got ahold of the Book. I’m not exactly sure how this is, but this would imply he was able to read the future and possible timelines of pretty much every existing universe. 

I include possible, because he says the BEAST world was the only one in which Odasaku could live. But he would have had to go back into the past of that BEAST world, because it starts when Akutagawa meets Dazai- far before Odasaku’s fate. Meaning, the future would not have happened were it not for the interference of alter-Dazai. So there’s a variable, possible timeline for BEAST in which Odasaku would not have lived. 

The definition for the Book, if I recall correctly, is that whatever is written in it becomes true, as long as there is karmic balance. 

...Since when did the Book contain all futures? 

That would mean our timeline is written in as well. If “our” Dazai did contact the others through the Book, he already a) has the book, and b) knows its possible futures. And we’re only seeing the most successful timeline in this world, where every Dazai has decided to cooperate. 

The reason why I’m somewhat reluctant to agree with this, is the incongruity it develops with a), as well as the fact that every appearing Dazai looked the same. 

I did say two main ways, didn’t I? 

2. Dazai is a ghost! 

Oh shit, you saw this coming too.

Jokes aside, I want to reference my old theory in which I stated a possibility that Dazai is competing in existence between his soul and his theory, and the current Dazai we see now is a mixture of the two. (You can check it out in my bsd theory tags.) 

Why did I want to reference this theory? 

Because I’ve been thinking recently: 

An existence has capacity for two entities, a soul and an ability. They establish a mutual relationship by the soul allowing the ability to reside in the existence, and the ability being used freely in its exchange. Additionally, the host soul must be stronger than the ability (as noted by 55 Minutes and Dead Apple). 

What’s happening in Dazai, or at least what I propose, is that the soul and the ability aren’t in this equilibrium. This is what I think disables Dazai from using NLH at his own free will- either the ability is too strong, or the soul is too weak. 

Now, every other ability user can somewhat bring their abilities under control. Kunikida is still Kunikida when he uses Doppo Ginkaku. Kenji returns to Kenji after using ((insert whatever his ability is called in English)). Chuuya is still Chuuya after using Corruption. 

But Dazai, is perpetually both Dazai and NLH.

Here it goes, stay with me. 

Every time we have seen Dazai in Atsushi’s conscience, he was in jail. However, the image is wearing the same clothes as he is when Atsushi interacts with him. 

This clues that whatever is talking to Atsushi, is some essence of Dazai, in the form that Atsushi knows him in. 

So where does this so-called essence come from? 

I have two proposals. 

a. There is an OG Dazai, associated with the Book, that is leading Atsushi to the Book. Thus, fulfilling his title as the “Tiger Beetle” as told by Fitzgerald’s mystery fortune teller. 

Or,

b. There is a fragment of the soul that is not occupying Dazai, due to his conflicted existence, and it is roaming the current world. Whenever it comes in contact with Atsushi, it manifests in the form he knows of. Thus, materializing isn’t actually materializing- it’s Dazai who’s speaking, but Atsushi who’s perceiving the soul in a different way. 

I know the theories this time are pretty weak, but I thought the whole question was worth addressing anyways. Let me know which, if any, of these, are most plausible. Please also tell me if there are any discrepancies with whatever evidence I've brought up. 

Stay safe, and thanks for reading! 

[theproblemcallednight]

sending you akutagawa and/or bram for character ask game

hii soda!!!

k imma do both cuz im bored :D

ok it got rlly long so it’s under the cut:

akutagawa:

first impressions- tbh i thought he was a weird ass bitch who needed cough drops bc his lil villain cough was making no one but the butterflies scared. like his ability was rlly cool but i didn’t really get him at first. also his name took me ages to pronounce 😭😭

impression now- genuinely one of my fav characters!!! he’s such a guy y’know. a goofy little guy. but i do rlly like his backstory and how he persevered and fought through ever and still was a morally bad person. like i luv seeing characters i adore suffer to hell and back and then finally find some sort of broken peace with themselves. aku allowing himself to value his own wants and needs after fighting atsushi and seeing him grow as a character is just perfect. 10/10 i luv him my blorbo forever <3

favourite moment- anything in wan tbh. i know i just went on a heartfelt rant abt aku but. wan aku is the true star let’s be honest. i mean look at him. just stare into those soulless eyes.

idea for a story- uhhhhh i not very creative gimme a sec… i think him finding himself with a pet would be cool. yknow like he gets attached to some stray cat and then ends up taking it in. and i feel like it would force himself to see that he can be a good person and there is beauty in life. the cat may or may not resemble a certain someone

unpopular opinion- ummm idk rlly? i guess i hc him somewhere or the aro/ace spectrum but i dunno if that’s an u popular opinion

favorite relationship- right so obvi sskk bc i am unoriginal and one with the masses. but. i luv it when chuuya and aku have like a father son relationship. or even when gin and him get to just hang out and chill. i just luv the idea of aku constantly chasing dazais approval and chuuya being like “bitch i fucking raised you the mf left after a year”

fav headcannon- hmmmm prob the hc tha he can’t cook? like he can’t boil water even. i just find it funny that it’s like the one thingy dazai passed down to him. father son duo that can blow up your kitchen in five seconds.

bram:

first impressions- i was so exited when i saw the name bram stoker omg. i haven’t actually read dracula but i’ve heard enough to abt it that ik brams ability would be sick. and god i thought it was so cool. and also the fact that bram was just a shish kebab was sending me and i immediately loved him

impression now- still absolutely in live with him and his character. he’s just like the biggest mood in all of bsd. and his and aya’s relationship is so freaking cute i luv them sm

favourite moment- either when he says he’ll be aya’s knight at the end, or when aya’s like bram what do we do about the apocalypse he’s like “sleep in a hole for a couple centuries.” i would love to sleep in a hole for 200 years every time i had a problem. it would be great.

idea for a story- i think it would be rlly interesting if it was a college and no abilities au and him and mary shelly and adam were besties. like it would be great. they would be the besties fr

unpopular opinion- uh i dunno… i kind of think that he shouldn’t have gotten his body back? at least not when he did? like don’t get me wrong he slayed and saved aya and stuff. but i feel like tbh ere was so much to use with his shish kebab state. i don’t know i think it was underutilized

favourite relationship- oh def bramcraft or lovestoker or whatever it’s called now. bram and lovecraft are ancient yuri and i will die on that hill. they can be eldritch monsters together. and be ancient together. that being said i like kunikifa and bram more platonically. like they become friends through joint custody of aya. and it’s one big happy family

favourite headcannon- oh i don’t know where i saw this but i luv the idea of him using like a cane or mobility aids. for balance probably, but i think it would be so cool for bram to have a cane. he’d look badass with it. best part is he can bonk ppl with it :D

well that got long. but it was rlly fun!!! ty for the ask soda!!!

[tgsfrankensteinslastbraincell]

Christmas is fucking weird. Like it started out as a cool way to get mandarins in your socks and now it's like a whole THING. It's a whole genre of movies! A whole genre of music! There's like a whole ass month dedicated to it, and within that month you're expected to get something for everyone you like/are expected to like because like- idk, capitalism? It's the weirdest thing ever.

"Oh yeah! What genre of movie do you wanna watch? Horror? Romcom? CHRISTMAS?" WHO DECIDED THIS??? It's probably just because capitalism is so deep-rooted in society or whatever (look at me being deep and smart and understanding economic values or something like that) but either way it's funny as fuck imo.

Also, on another note, Christmas lore is wild? Random rotund man breaks into your house while you're asleep and reverse-burgles you? That parts an unoriginal thought though, I'm fairly sure just about everyone over a certain age thinks that's odd.

[xoxo-ren-xoxo]

Rambling About Hunter (The Owl House)

Warnings: discussions of neglect/abuse & dehumanization. Kinda sad and angsty in general.

Basically I just binged The Owl House and I think I deserve to be a little autistic about it. Especially about my favourite character Hunter because he’s my special little meow meow or whatever. This all probably won’t hold up after the finale (I’m writing this on 24/05/22) but eh I have my speculations about his character and I want to ramble about them. Mostly about What he is and how badly he is dealing with it lol.

Canon-inspired fanon, angst, and spoilers (duh) under the cut

Ok so. Hunter. The Golden Guard. Caleb? Uh, whatever you wanna call the guy. He’s a grimwalker (that reveal got me in the heart) and he is messed up and I have a lot to say about him ok. Let’s go.

First I wanna talk about how Hunter doesn’t want Willow and Gus to know he’s a grimwalker. Like, we the audience know they wouldn’t care, but it seems like Hunter thinks they would. Like they would see him differently somehow knowing that he’s a grimwalker. Which leads me to believe he thinks he’s somehow less/different now because of what he is. He doesn’t even KNOW what he is, really, aside from that he’s a copy.

And copy is a really interesting word to me. I think Hunter uses it himself. It implies something unoriginal, replaceable, and perhaps even less valuable than the ‘original’. Although Belos calls him a ‘better version’ of the original, he also says that Hunter was the most accurate to the original, which has gotta mess with your sense of self, right? Individuality must be really confusing for him, like, who is he, what is he, and is he truly his own person if he is a copy of someone else. Of course he is, but does Hunter believe that? God, it makes me too sad let’s move on to sadder things.

He’s lived his whole life trying to impress Belos so that he won’t be replaced, because that’s his biggest fear (likely because being replaced means being Dead) and now he finds out there were potentially HUNDREDS of copies before him? (Belos has been alive for hundreds of years so, I would say he’s probably had quite a few Golden Guards). The shot of all the masks strewn across Belos’ mindscape with Hunter just looking at them, horrified, was honestly haunting to me. Being so innately replaceable must just have messed with Hunter, and Luz barely acknowledges it (fair enough, she had her own shit going on) so I’m not surprised that Hunter ran away after that and decided to start living out of the trash. He was already a mess before then. What kind of teenager fears his boss so much that he legitimately starts digging his own grave in defeat? Hey that’s some real PTSD type shit don’t think I forgot about that.

Hunter is also 16, by the way, which I kept being reminded of by the show itself. Thanks show. And that makes it way more horrific to me. Like, the other Golden Guards are implied to have not lasted very long either, so I doubt any of them made it to their 20s or 30s. Which is some legacy to live up to, right? As someone who never quite thought they would reach 20 (and it is getting closer every day oof) I understand what it feels like to look in the mirror and still see a child who doesn’t know how to handle all of this. And I think Hunter, being so young and put into such an important position, might also be feeling that way even before he found out he was a grimwalker. It’s sort of a live fast die young kinda job.

Also, this is pure speculation, but because Hunter was Created, and the grimwalker info in the book doesnt seem to imply a timeline, just illustrations, we have no way of knowing how old Hunter ACTUALLY is. Like, maybe grimwalkers are born and then mature in a matter of days/weeks. Because how would Belos have the foresight to make a new one 16 years or so before the current one dies? Hunter knows nothing about the previous grimwalker, and only really seems to mention his trials before entering the emperors coven, as part of his ‘childhood’. But what if he’s only been alive for a few years and his memories are fake, placed into his mind to make him believe he’s a generally normal witch? That is something I would be freaking out about if I was Hunter. It’s a lot to take in. Very Blade Runner.

Back to Willow and Gus. Is Hunter upset that Luz found out about the grimwalker thing at the same time as him? It doesn’t seem like he wants anyone to know about it, maybe because he’s worried they will also see him as replaceable (like Belos did) or that he will have to start proving his worth so they see him as an equal. God. I don’t think Hunter fully trusts all of our protagonists, he still has his guard up at all times (cough cough PTSD) and he’s visibly more nervous than when he was the Golden Guard. It’s just smthn to think about.

Also the fact Hunter has scars? When there’s a healing coven that can clearly heal wounds leaving no scars (we have seen this!). Like, yes there have been other characters with scars, but they seem to be characters who have been way more severely hurt (eg Eda’s dad) and more deeply scarred. I think there are three possibilities as to why Hunter has scars:

Belos didn’t let the healers help him after he got hurt, so the scars healed naturally

The scars were super severe but they look less bad now because of healing magic

Belos made Hunter wait a while before summoning healers, giving the wounds more time to become permanent before being healed and therefore leaving scars

The last option is the most “fun” (not really) to me because what I mean by it is, maybe Belos hurt Hunter (as is implied throughout the show) and didn’t want the healers coven to know he was the one who did the damage, so he made Hunter wait (because he couldn’t risk the healers noticing the pattern of Hunter visiting Belos and coming back with wounds) for a while then claimed he was hurt on a mission of some kind, to cover his tracks. OR it was pure neglect, Belos forgetting/being too busy to call the healers coven and leaving Hunter to deal with it by himself. Both options are fucked up but also lead on to my next point:

Hunter finally realising why Belos was careless with him, why he hurt him, why he sent him on dangerous missions despite Hunter being unable to perform competent magic. It was because he’s literally a replaceable clone. I don’t think Belos wants Hunter to die on a mission, purely because making a grimwalker seems difficult and this Hunter especially was apparently most like the original. But I think Belos doesn’t care that much- doesn’t care enough to make Hunter’s life particularly safe. That realisation must be fucking crushing for Hunter- the person he has looked up to all this time never cared about him, always saw him as a weapon/tool, and really just hurt him for the hell of it. Fuuuuuck.

And now Hunter is seeing all the love and appreciation and determination coming from his new friends, and he cares enough to help them like they help him and I think what he’s scared of is all of it being a lie. Like Belos. Who he is now terrified of (and perhaps always was). He doesn’t want them to see him in the same way Belos sees him. Ugh he has so many issues he needs so much therapy. God.

Anyway seeing all the love around him must fuckin. Be difficult. Like, Luz and Amity, obviously, but just like all of his friends. They care about each other and I don’t think he entirely trusts that yet? But he is getting there and I would die for him and... cries.

anyway puts him on the shelf of characters i will never shut up about. the end

P.S. the fucking palisman. flapjack my sweet boy. cries again.

letting yourself make art that is probably bad but also might be good and in some way matters to you is totally in top 10 most important and beautiful things ever. i know that 10 million people have said this before me but i will say it too cause it's soooo true. been sitting down every day lately and just writing bullshit and it's so nice. letting myself write whatever i want knowing that no one else will ever read it and by the end of the year i'll probably have made a billion bad short stories and repeated a gazillion boring and unoriginal thoughts but maybe in that huge pile at least one thing will be kinda nice. and either way i will be proud and it will matter to me. so who cares

[pastrybon]

hi guys welcome to the Yuuverse today i am gonna be mentally ill again wow whats new at this point (without art cuz....pain and no motivation)

first up issss Yuu! yeah no name changes cuz I'm unoriginal and...this one doesn't really change the story. its pretty much game Yuu

okay ik i said that the story dont rlly change but do not underestimate their version of twisted wonderland. it is my own self indulgent hell filled with headcanons and events. btw their moral compass has almost gone to SHIT cuz everyone at NRC in their version of twisted wonderland is fucking insane and horrible and the only reason they are alive is out of sheer fucking luck, willpower, spite and the fact everyone owes them. NRC will both torment them and also fight God for them. nobody else torments their prefect but them!!

anyways onto Ribbon aka ALIEN WHO KEEPS ADOPTING EVERYONE CHILL-

anyways yeah... probably the only Yuu who is actually planned to be in a relationship (Yuu does not count. their NRC is too mixed for them to know whether or not theyre in a relationship with them or not). the lucky mf is Lilia cuz although Ribbon has preferences for ppl who can cook good as partners. they still somehow think that "I can fix him" when it comes to Lilia's cooking like....no you cant Ribbon. give up pLEase

they still love him though. even with his horrible cooking that looks like it came straight from hell (Solomon?? dis u???)

oh yeah theyve also adopted almost all the students. nobody is safe. they will be tucked in in the softest blankets and pillows ever and kissed goodnight on the forehead. any resistance will be stopped with their ribbon limbs that are freakishly strong

next up on our list of Yuu's is Lem! the only one with an actual gender!!!

NRC's chefs and cooks better RUN because Ramshackle has TWO BOTTOMLESS PITS NOW!!

i cannot really say anything else besides the fact that they are that one incorrect quote that's like "They shouldn't call it an all you can eat buffet or whatever then!!!" "dude you ate a chair"

and lastly....the best Yuu ever

SHRIMPY.

nothing is different in the story mostly. Yuu is simply just a floating shrimp

whether or not they talk is still being thought out
