i think karkat being a huge romance nerd is so fitting because naturally as a self hating teenager he’d be obsessed with finding some kind of belonging with someone. especially because of his hostility he would SO obsess of the idea of someone seeing past that and deciding to love him for who he is. Karkat would so desperately want someone to love him even if they hurt him because he hates himself. He needs someone to just look at him and feel SOMETHING, anything. And because of his self hatred he’s destined to push anyone that does love him away so he finds that he’s constantly alone and then craves any kind of attention even more than he already would. Idk if that makes sense but to me it does idk,,, just karkat needing to be loved but feeling unloveable at the same time ??? yeah
oh man i just got so much clarification about the difference between all the different usagi's cause i was really confused about the family name/given name situation between all the iterations HAHAHA . apparently yuichi is the FAMILY NAME and not his given name 🤯🤯🤯🤯 same with miyamoto, it's a family name and not his given one, so usagi was named after miyamoto in that his given name is usagi .
very sorry for referring to them as the usagi clan, i didn't know anything about this rabbit until i started reading up on him 😭 and a poster on tumblr also helped clear this up.
i can go forward now and actually refer to everyone correctly LOL also this has given me ideas for more backstory stuff 😎😎😎 WOOOOOOO
I have an 89.5 in my bio class rn and my therapist asked me, since that was my hardest class that I kept getting frustrated at, how did I still score so high in that class? so I told her that it’s bc I mentally checked out and instead of stressing over every little detail in that class, I just did what I could and hoped for the best. and she asked me why didn’t I apply that same ideology to the other things in my life that I stress a fuck ton about? and bitch omfg why is she right
IMO fancalls and fanmeets in Korea are so weird and generally just demeaning and treat idols like they're props. I know the Korean culture surrounding famous people is so different to Western culture, but I literally cannot imagine handing someone like Harry Styles a baby hat and telling him to make cat noises while I bounce a camera two inches from his face.
I know not everyone acts that way during calls and meets, and there's been some genuinely heart-wrenching interactions between fans and idols (will literally never forget the girl who had Chan creased the whole time, man could not stop laughing and smiling 10/10 how it should be done) but most of the time its essentially treating idols like puppets.
"I bought your album so you're obligated to perform like a little doll for me and do everything I say."
I would literally vomit. You can visually see some idols trying to decide if fame is worth it.
honestly I couldn't have said it better myself!! and you're right like there are fans who actually treat them with respect and dont waste their time demanding them to do weird things but ofc that is overshadowed by creepy ones like they are the only ones who go viral and it paints a negative image in general. i mean, how is calling them "daddy" appropriate ? or telling them to bark ? some of this stuff they do and say that I have seen should have remained in their heads lmao like?? anyways I agree with everything you said I wish they would end it or at least give them the right to end calls as soon as the idols get uncomfortable bc the reason they keep doing it is bc nothing happens , they know they can say whatever they want to them yikes.

imagine having history class with lilia and fawning and idolising this fae general with eyes dyed crimson with the blood of his fallen enemies who brought victory after victory to briar valley and you get embarrassed when you notice lilia's paying attention to your fangirling and this sketch of a 190cm tall general and he says:
"Oh dear, don't stop now! I'm quite intrigued by the picture you paint of this... general... Enlighten me, dear, what exactly catches your fancy?"
