#this is the wildest parallel

[haine-kleine]

Fulfilling my quota of Touyadoomposting by going back to this theory and expanding it. This is mostly a crack theory except instead being funny everything is just horrible lololol

Ok so as silly as the Tenko's entire life being orchestrated by AFO pretty much since he was born reveal was, it also gave us the fact AFO used to have drinking dates with his father specifically for the purpose of making him as abusive to Tenko as possible.

Combine this with the weirdly OOC fact that Enji gave up on achieving the number one place at the ripened age of 20. Sure, Allmight's shining beacon of hope and strength may have been a source of great jealousy for a young and upcoming number two pro hero but come on now. 20 is still a teenager, why are you giving up without even trying.

Enji's admirable hero quality is determination.

No matter how insecure he secretly was, giving up at 20, with a perfectly healthy body, and putting all of his determination into making a kid with a quirk stronger than his own and making that kid achieve his dream in his place, is not even backwards logic, it makes absolutely no sense. Enji is not even one of the quirks obsessed characters, he has never been interested in anyone's quirk besides his own and his sons'. Despite his weakness (overheating), he is all about pushing through and overcoming it. To put this shortly, Enji is dumb as a shoe a very single-minded person. This is simply not someone who would entertain such concepts as perfect quirks or eugenics.

You know who does though? Yeah, this guy.

Enji is ruled by his emotions and has tragically low emotional intelligence. This makes him very susceptible to manipulations. And AFO is one hell of a manipulator. A villain obsessed with destroying Allmight and the number two hero who dreams of throwing Allmight off his pedestal. Why wouldn't AFO seek him out? If he saw that seed of self-doubt and carefully nurtured it, Enji giving up despite being so young would start making sense. Enji seeking out a quirk marriage would also make sense (I refuse to believe this man is the only one who came up with this idea in the entire manga). He clearly didn't know what he was doing.

Even choosing a Himura as a candidate for his little eugenics experiment would start making sense if it was actually AFO's suggestion. The Himuras are famous for their strong ice quirks, and Enji's goal was creating a heir whose heat tolerance would be higher than his. This is basic logic. Having babies with a woman who has an ice quirk and is vulnerable to heat won't land you any kids with a fire tolerance higher than your own. He set himself up for failure, they all came out like Touya

Granting Enji's logical thinking abilities the benefit of doubt, we look the other way and spot Garaki being involved in this case. AFO wanting to see what would come out of genetically combining strong ice and fire quirks just for the sake or his curiousity makes so much more sense than Enji being unable to comprehend his choice for the quirk marriage wasn't even fit for his goal. Touya did eventually end up in AFO and Garaki's child laboratory, which was the purpose of Garaki fronting as a quirks doctor for kids. And Enji was in contact with Garaki since Touya was 4 years old.

Also makes for such an evil irony that Touya's trauma stems from him seeking a reason for his existence and not finding one. And the entire reason for his very birth is just AFO being a cold-blooded quirkist manipulator

New rule.

I’m not gonna base what Marvel stuff I get into on if Young Avengers characters are involved anymore. Not without reviews at least. That way lies disaster.

Instead— It’s based on if Jac Schaeffer or her team are involved, from now on. Because WandaVision is probs in my top 5 all-time favorites. Captain Marvel 2 was lovely, I thought. (My heart for Carol to get to kiss Maria on screen, but alas, censorship—and not the writers’ or director’s faults.)

And Agatha All Along… Oh my HEART. AGATHA ALL ALONG 😭 I’M GONNA BE SICK /POS

I just realized out of the blue that maybe a part of the reason why I like Noa and Mae so much as a ship is because they remind me a lot of Lucas and Skye from Terra Nova.

Noa and Lucas have actually a lot in common if you think about it. No, I kid you not, Lucas is basically what Noa could turn out to be if he took one wrong turn too much and doesn't have his ape support system:

both are highly intelligent, much more than most around them, making them special among their kind

Noa was the only one able to fix the broken staff while Lucas was the only one able to make the portal go both ways

they both have fathers with important roles in the community (Koro is Master of Birds and leader of the clan, Taylor is the commander of Terra Nova and war hero)

both were closer to their mother and struggle to live up to their father's expectations

both lost a parent in a brutal attack they had to witness (and partly blame themselves for it)

both live a long time in the forest isolated from interacting with humans

they both have a prominent scar (Noa has the visible mark left by the electric staff and Lucas has the marks from the Nykoraptor attack)

both connect with and catch feelings for a girl belonging to the "enemy" who lies and manipulates them and ends up betraying and almost getting them killed(!!!)

important hand holding scenes with someone giving an important object to the other (the circumstances are vastly different, still...)

also Lucas and Skye got an intense foreheard touching scene which I really need Noa and Mae to have too

there are also some interesting similarities between Skye's and Mae's character, with both having a personal mission that they are willing to go to great lengths to fulfil (Skye doing everything to save her sick mother, Mae doing everything to save humanity)

from the looks, Skye and Mae could absolutely be sisters

both Lucas and Noa have the same striking green eyes, while both Skye and Mae have both blue eyes (okay, I'm not sure about Allison's eyes but they look blueish to me)

In conclusion, I'm absolutely thinking about a Terra Nova AU now where they don't go to the past but end up building the colony in a parallel dimension where apes have evolved into the dominant species. And who's to say that there can't be dinosaurs on the planet of the apes?

Apollo is Peeta! He is a patron of the arts, he rides in a fiery chariot (sometimes joined by Artemis), and is typically depicted with blond hair. Although Peeta and Katniss are not literal twins, they are twins in the sense that they are presented as duo from the moment they arrive in the Capitol, even wearing matching training clothes (the other tributes did not match). Artemis and Apollo are also among the gods that fight against Cronus (Roman name Saturn), who is the god of the reaping and time (Snow! Tick tock, the arena is a clock.).

How cool! Thank you for sharing nonny!!

No you don’t understand. Forever is the sweetest con /Nothing lasts forever / I’m never gonna love again / see me in hindsight tangled up with you all night burning it down / we could be the way forward and I know I’ll pay for it / but this is gonna take me down / the ladies lunching have their stories about when you passed through town / I’ll bet these memories follow you around / now you hang from my lips like the gardens of Babylon / and when we’ve had our very last kiss, my last request is. . .

You know what is interesting ?! i can see you/illicite affairs. In illicite affairs there is no cheating involve per say, it's more secret language/having sex with someone but nobody knows. And i can see you feels like the beginning of that, the rush that something might happen, illicite affairs is the downfall, it was more for me than for you, and the lines "Don't call me kid, don't call me baby" could fit if the rs was with someone older...idk what do you think?

i think i can see you is like ultimate taylor because it's about the anticipation, the what-if, the fantasy... she has so many songs like this in her earlier discography, enchanted being another great example.

i don't think there's a direct connection between i can see you and illicit affairs, but there's a sort of comparative thematic connection. i can see you is about the excitement of anticipating something might happen... and illicit affairs is the ugly reality when it all falls apart. fantasy -> fallout. oh the "i don't like that falling feels like flying til the bone crush" of it all!!!

imo, treacherous is kind of i can see you's older sister. treacherous is a song about anticipation, being afraid of embarking on this risk.

and 1989 doesn't get a track like that at all, except wildest dreams, which is just fatalistic rather than a fantasy. "i can see the end as it begins..."

and we get a return to the anticipatory songs in reputation with rfi and delicate!

idk where i'm going with this exactly but it was fun lmao

(sidenote: so fascinating to see how her early discography was full of fantasy/what ifs and her latest album - midnights and sntv - is about looking back on things that actually happened, and sometimes how they could've been different!)

Ok but the way i was STRESSING during that fight with the acamoth. I was sitting on the floor building furniture and just started sweating. I wasn't even doing anything strenuous. Just putting screws in.

You would not believe how many times I said fuck when Astrada showed up. I was fully prepared to say goodbye to him. Nothing good ever lasts etc etc.

Dan and all the silver bullets omg. I was waiting for those to come back around but fully thought it would be cult related.

Lola getting shot in the gut repeatedly 😭😭😭 and her panic at the end about Dan. I just want to hug her. And also tell her that not everything is her responsibility. I'm also lowkey terrified of the other shoe dropping with her and the gentry and Mother. Like one episode left. Shit's going to hit the fan and she's going back to the hedge. Lola!!!!!!

John nearly drowning again 😬😬😬 that cannot have been fun for him. AND THE WAY HE JUST KEPT TAKING MORE DAMAGE. I am shit at the health levels but he had to be getting like really really close to death. He took so much damage 😭😭 AND SOME OF IT WAS SELF INFLICTED. But also omg his magic is so cool 😍😍. Also John just being like Aviva thinks she's so much better than everyone else as the meanest thing he could think 😭. He's right Aviva is so much better than many people but i am biased. And like I may be reading too much into it but I lowkey think it kinda revealed his own insecurity about her.

It was when Aviva went "unconscious" that I truly started losing it a bit. That's when I started getting really nervous. SHE WAS ALONE IN THE TWILIGHT WITH THE ACAMOTH. It was horrible. But I also love that she got to kick its ass with John by her side. So fucking fitting and satisfying. 10/10. I also just really really love her anger and rage. And the image of both of them sitting there hugging all bloody is v nice.

Horribly saddened by everyone else who died tho. Gary!!!! And Amber!!! Ugh. So much needless death. They didn't deserve that. Poor Gary and Amber.

1989 (Taylor’s version) & August parallels

What if all I need is you? / I never needed anything more

Cause you kiss mе and it stops time, and I'm yours, but you're not mine / I let it slide like a hose on a slippery plastic summer / August sipped away like a bottle of wine, cause you were never mine

I said, "No one has to know what we do", his hands are in my hair, his clothes are in my room / But I can see us lost in the memory … And I can see us twisted in bedsheets

I'm standin' on the sidewalk alone, I wait for you to drive by / Remember when I pulled up and said “get in the car”?

Why'd you have to make me want you? Why'd you have to give nothing back? / Lovelorn and nobody knows, love thorns all over this rose, I'll pay the price, you won't / So much for summer love and saying "us" cause you weren't mine to lose

Halfway out the door, but it won't close, I'm holdin' out hope for you to say “don’t go” / For me, it was enough to live for the hope of it all
