#this show makes me so fucking insane s2g

[wulfhalls]

wait have u seen beyond ep 1 of s2 somehow?

lol don't tell me the rumor about alys glamouring herself to look like rhaenyra to seduce daemon is actually true

So what is the thing you said we were back about? Is it Harrenhal? Is it not Harrenhal?? Also who is we because I'm beginning to think iskarieot nation is not on the same page.

bro plz hint at least a little 😩 what route are they going down? does it involve mf, mm or ff pairing? are sickos like us going to ship it?

girl you're confusing what will go down is it good or bad or you're just here for the buck fucking wild ride

where did u get the leaks from?also, does that new blonde character fuck? alicent's brother or smtng. if so, who does he fuck? (asking important questions here)

Are you going to confirm what it is after ep 1 of hotd airs? Is it an ep 1 thing? I've seen some spoilers and I can only think of one thing but the way show seems to be doing it to be used I don't think I'm a fan of.

maybe i will watch season 2 of hotd after all... but i s2g if it turns out to just be like a haelgon sex scene or something lol 😭🔪🔪

so do you know the whole synopsis and key points of the whole second season or is it just the first 2 episodes?

genuinely sorry for the vague posting but I'm sworn to secrecy and I would never betray the trust of a beloved mutual. that's licherally my cousin. so. i know of some things that happen I don't know when they will happen just that they will definitely happen. and one specific thing (again I don't know when) that if it had hit me unprepared I would have made this site unusable all by myself. so it could be considered public service that I've been told in advance tbh. when it happens u will know that it was that very specific thing that will make me forgive 94% of whatever shit decision theyll be making the rest of the season. and after it happened we can go fucking bat shit insane together <3

top 5 tropes

1. Canon Divergence 

Cross Your Fingers, Be It Fahrenheit or Centigrade, and Warm in the Fire of Us by @pynkhues

I don’t think I need to sell anyone on Sophie’s work because it’s well established that she provides high quality content. fortunately for me, she also likes the same tropes as me so i stay well fed. 

CYF: a post-s2 fic dripping with angst and criminal activity. the scene where rio interrupts beth’s date lives rent free in my head. 

BIFOC: set during s2, rio is sick 😷 and beth plays nurse 👩‍⚕️ ... god tier scenario 

WITFOU: set during s3 (aka brio’s angst era) lets just say... clean like him changed me on a spiritual level  (inspired the forbid blow job 👀)

a song inside the halls of the dark by @mego42

this fic as everything: a road trip, beth committing murder, crafts, several near death experiences, brio sexily not communicating, find my friends, AND pta moms interacting with brio... like what more could you ask for in a sprawling post-s2 fic? a must read imo 

Good Sport by fireinsideforfun

i know you’re all ARC stans so I don’t need to tell you that fiff is a good writer. but what I am hear to say is that Good Sport is a slept on fic (pun intended). brio bed sharing and not communicating my beloved. 

for a moment we were strangers by openhearts

this is fic is iconic for fully embracing beth and rio’s age gap (41 v. 29)... openhearts said cougar rights. but also this fic is a fun little brio playing house fic and i just can’t get enough of it 

I Put A Spell On You (and now you're mine) by @sdktrs12

um hellooooooooooo halloween 🎃 prompts my beloved. 

2. Hate Sex

your monster looks like mine by mego42

this fic is about having hate sex on drugs..... das it baby 🥵

satisfied through the weekend by @septiembrre

the show gave us brio having sex while beth is on a date with her husband (iconic, revolutionary, etc), but Gaby one-upped them and gave use up brio having sex while beth is on a date with the hitman she hired to murder rio... i have to stan 

As Good As This by @riosnecktattoo

wire sex - i simply love betrayal 

Two Shoes by pynkhues

all you need to know about this fic is that brio do a job together that requires them to dance and then hide in a closet together (sexily)... the animosity and sexual tension is off the charts

I Will Collect You and Capture You by @foxmagpie

oKaY..... these clowns 🤡 are really at their worst in this fic. like please have a conversation im begging you (jk keep hate fucking and being angsty). rio fr thinks he can fuck beth out of his system, but all he can do is think about her when he’s with other women. literally down so bad in this one. 

3. Outsider POV/Interactions

Three Drops (an intermission) and If It Wasn't for All the Lights by pynkhues

these two fics inspired my own outsider pov fic... thats how influential they are. other people should NOT be forced to interact with beth and rio and yet... its so incredibly funny when they do. i would sell my soul for some more outsider pov fic i s2g. 

Choose Your Own Adventure by sdktrs12

if you’ve followed me for longer than 30 seconds then you know im a cyoa stan. the concept of beth and rio having to spend time with normal parents makes me insane. and they’re just so horny for each other, but in the woods and thats just so special to me.

listening through the air shaft by mego42

another iconic outsider pov fic. truly the dean pov chapter is incredible. like it was so incredibly big brained of meg to make Dean witness brio coming out of the  bathroom break bathroom together. transcendent really. 

AITA for wanting to stop paying my wife’s “business partner” and yelling at her? by @lemoncupcake

spoiler alert: he is the asshole 

PTA Vibes by greyish 

again i’m OBSESSED with the idea of normal people interacting with brio and being subjected to their insanity. and brio being on the pta together is inherently hysterical. 

4. School AU

delinquents, stunner, and I'll Fall If You Do by foxmagpie

queen of high school aus it has to be said. the high school teacher just JUMPS out and im obsessed. 

delinquents... my beloved... where to even begin? a must read for sure. i love this fic so much it inspired my entire fanfic fanart series. 

stunner: blockt for this one; intentional infliction of emotional distress law suit still pending 

IFIYD: i love two dummies with a requited crush on each other playing spin the bottle   

Both Sides of the Law by @joeyjoeylee

if you’re ever been to law school then you’d know that joey captured it perfectly. its the perfect au setting for brio because only insane people go to law school. thats just facts. this fic made me cry (real actual tears from my eyes) several times. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

QuikGrove University by sdktrs12

a staple in the brio college au category. just two college students having sex and committing crimes like god intended. 

watermelon sugar and Seven Minutes in Heaven by @querenaxx

ws: rio spends this entire fic with his tongue 👅 inside beth and i love that journey for him

smih: the title really says it all. and what im saying is that it needs a sequal as asap as possible.

Jawbreaker by riosnecktattoo

tay does simp rio like no one else... its the longing for me... (also rio sexily plays basketball)

Pre Season by @wakeupflawless

if you follow my main blog then you know im obsessed with soccer so of course a brio soccer au is going to be my bread and butter. they literally want to fuck each other so bad, but also, they want to beat each other on the field and that just feels so right.

Sliding Into Third by @fairhairedkings

baseball rio... das it baby... that’s all i need to say i think

A Special Kind of Business by CaptainCabinets

beth x rio x high school x drug dealing = incredible 

5. Very Brio Specific Sex (i.e. pool table, hot tub, desk etc.)    

Invitation to a Beheading by riosnecktattoo

they literally have sex next to a dead body (🥴)

Say It by riosnecktattoo 

desk sex with a twist bc its at boland bubbles instead of boland motors (cucking is cucking babes)

trade my heart for honey and now use both hands by mego42

tmhfh: antagonistic pool playing leads to fucking on the pool table 

nusbh: desk sex but they make it other peoples problem lmao

Lining Up the Shot  and Part of the Equation by brokensatellites

luts: he bends her over the pool table just like in canon, but its actually sexy

pote: hot tub sex like literally fucking in the hot bubbly water 

Show Me How To Get Offended by FakePlastikTrees 

hot tub sex, sex in the hot tub - its what we deserved but never got

your tongue told me every lie by carrythesky 

desk sex on THE boland motors desk... 😌

Salty Sweet by foxmagpie

desk sex but beth is sucking him off under the desk while hes conducting business 

[nebulaleaf]

apologising in advance for the insanely long submission

tbh as someone who's completed royal like twice now, your take on kasumi is absolutely true like. she just feels so.... forced? i remember the first time i played and met her, her talk sprites for certain things were WAY more detailed and more "cute" than i remember a lot of other characters' (ESPECIALLY the boys') sprites were for the same emotions. every time i came across a scene exclusive to royal, i quickly started to dread it because either she would show up and Be Cute :) or i would just spend the whole cutscene worrying she's gonna show up. you mentioned being only a few palaces deep so i'll only talk about those parts. it's insane how she's so ridiculously PRESENT, constantly throughout these first few months, and yet she has remarkably little impact on the story at all during those palaces, and barely any appearances outside of her little cutscenes (which she gets allllllll to herself!!!). i remember thinking it was heavyhanded when the original persona 5 tried to make makoto the obvious romance choice, but i'd take that back over this literally any day!!! the spoiled cherry on top was the redone casino intro sequence. the fact that she just shows up and bails you out from a handful of shadows sucks ass, especially considering the (admittedly common) jrpg thing of "no i could definitely solo all these enemies, why is this being treated as impossible odds". joker can't even have his own cool and badass solo mission to himself, kasumi HAS to steal the spotlight and drop some meaningless foreshadowing when literally no one even has a reason to care about her yet. tl;dr grrrrr kasumi 😡😡😡😡😡

NO YEAH I

SORRY TO GLOSS OVER 80% OF THIS I JUST AGREE WITH MOST OF IT AND HAVE NOTHING MUCH TO ADD, BUT THE CASINO SCENE IS WHAT REALLY PISSES ME OFF. THAT'S LIKE /THE/ BIGGEST SCENE FOR JOKER'S CHARACTERIZATION / ONE OF THE BIGGEST MOST TIGHTLY KNIT SCENES IN GENERAL. THE FLOW OF IT IS AMAZING AND IT'S ONE OF MY FAVOURITE OPENINGS FOR A GAME OF ALL TIME

SO TO GET TO ROYAL AND HAVE... THAT. SOBS. CRIES. IT'S NOT SUPER DIFFERENT FROM VANILLA BUT IT STILL FEELS WRONG YK? I hate when things retcon characters to be more incompetent to make another character look better. Maruki gives me cognitive psience vibes and i s2g if they make wakaba seem incompetent to boost him i'll lose it. OH AND, Same with her confidant opening and how she says she'll teach Joker gymnastics. Yes that's the perfect way to slot her in as a confidant and makes total sense in the sae scene and just in general, but it again feels weird going from vanilla to royal because.......... akira could already do that. easily. actually wait fuck that point lmao. even IN royal he can still all do the crazy jumps and flips WITHOUT kasumi's pointers. YOU SEE HIM FLIPPING OFF THE GRAPPLING HOOK? ig the pointers would be handy but . yeesh yeesh yeesh.

[makeste]

my long boring post about chapter 293 and Kacchan’s hero name

lmao I think that’s all of them. anyways, so I said I was gonna do a post on this, and so here goes.

first off, I just want to say that people are allowed to not like the name! it’s a completely subjective thing, there’s no right or wrong “it’s good” or “it’s bad.” or rather, there is a right or wrong, and it’s whichever one you think it is. if you think it’s good, you’re right. if you think it’s bad, you’re also right. it’s an opinion, it doesn’t need to be backed up by peer review lol.

that said, here is my own completely subjective opinion: I think “Dynamight” (though please not with the capital “m”, I beg you lol) is a terrific name for him honestly. it’s clever wordplay, it’s a subtle callback/tribute to his favorite hero who is also his inspiration for becoming a hero, and it’s a perfect fit for his chosen aesthetic. it’s honestly great.

and what makes it even better is that at the same time, it is also stupid as fuck lmao. this is a name that encapsulates the duality of man. it’s the perfect metaphor for this boy who think he’s the hottest shit god ever invented, and has no idea that the number of people who take him seriously after interacting with him for more than ten seconds is actually in the single digits. this hero name is the equivalent of an excited puppy ferociously bounding towards a squirrel only to trip over its own feet and fall flat on its face. it thinks it is scary as fuck, and has no idea that 30,000 people on TikTok think it’s the most adorable thing they’ve ever seen. I unabashedly love it, and will also ceaselessly roast the everloving shit out of it without the slightest remorse, just like I roast the beloved boy attached to it. that’s just how it is lol.

so that’s how I feel about the name! however, this next part I need to emphasize: my opinion of the name, and my opinion of whether or not I actually think this will be his name, are two different things. I like the name Dynamight. I really do. and I also think there is next to no chance that this will actually be his hero name.

here’s the thing. this would have been a perfect name for him if it had been his chosen name back in chapter 45 when everyone else picked their aliases. it would have fit in seamlessly with the rest of his class. Red Riot, Chargebolt, Earphone Jack, Sugarman, Uravity; those are all names that stick in your mind and look great on official merch. those are names that sell action figures, but they also do a great job of representing the individuals behind the names. they have personality. and so does “Dynamight”, for sure.

but the thing is, for whatever reason, Horikoshi didn’t have him pick this name back in chapter 45. he went with a running gag instead. “King Explosion Murder”, “Lord Explosion Murder”, and so forth. and in the end, we never got a hero name at all. he could have had him pick Dynamight after we’d had our laughs. hell, he could have used it as an early easter egg hinting at Kacchan’s admiration for All Might, which wouldn’t be officially revealed until the final exam arc about twenty chapters later. “Dynamight” in Japanese is written out in katakana -- ダイナマイト (“dainamaito”). this is the word that’s used in Japan for actual dynamite. there is no inherent indicator that it’s a pun; it just so happens that the “mite” in dynamite is spelled out phonetically in Japanese the exact same way that “might” is. so the pun isn’t obvious unless you know to look for it. Horikoshi could have left us all thinking that “Dynamite” was his name until chapter 62 or thereabouts when he revealed that Katsuki looked up to All Might, at which point Horikoshi could finally reveal the official English spelling and it would be like a second name reveal. which would have been pretty sweet, actually.

but my point being, for some reason he instead chose not to do this. instead he chose to drag it all out for 250 chapters, content to let us all languish. this man had not a shred of mercy for the thousands of Bakugou fans who were all “please, sir, the fic,” before eventually giving up and adopting Ground Zero as the official-unofficial name until we either got a real reveal or died of old age. he dragged it out, and kept it as a gag, and eventually it was just like, fine, whatever.

and then this happened.

and it changed everything.

because you see, all of a sudden “Bakugou’s Hero Name” wasn’t just a running joke gag plot anymore. in the span of three sentences, Horikoshi changed the entire meaning of it. “your hero name represents your desires. the embodiment of how you wish to be. your ideal self.”

just like that, the whole mystery of “what will Bakugou’s hero name be” goes from being a funny little ongoing thing to an existential question, with the implication being that the choice he finally makes, whatever it may be, will in essence reveal the very core of his character. “your ideal self.” in other words this will really be almost the pinnacle of his entire character arc. his hero name, when he finally picks it, will show us just how far he’s come. it will show us his answer to “what kind of person do you want to be.”

that is an insane amount of meaning to suddenly dump onto something that up until this point had just been a funny little running gag. “lol Bakugou loves murder and death.” “lol at this rate Bakugou will graduate while still not having an actual hero name.” from that, to suddenly out of the blue, “Bakugou’s hero name will show us who he is as a person.” like, holy shit though. and mind you, this isn’t something that’s been done for any other character. this is very Bakugou-specific. all this build-up and significance has been ascribed to his hero name specifically. at this point his name is basically its own fucking plot. it’s literally its own individual little arc. all of that build-up. all of that meaning and importance given to it.

and then Horikoshi goes and gives us this.

so. like... okay, I guess??

like, just some quick things of note here though:

he is still doing the whole “explosive destruction murder” thing on top of the “Dynamight” part. indicating that there has not been the slightest bit of thoughtful consideration actually given on his part. literally the one thing that everyone and their mom was trying to explain to him not to do, and all of it went in one ear and out the other. which is fine!! he is adorable here and I want to ruffle his hair, honestly. but it’s clear to me that he still hasn’t grasped what Jeanist was trying to explain to him before, if this is really his answer to “what would you consider to be your ideal self” lol.

the name is INSTANTLY panned by every single person in the surrounding vicinity, villains included. hell, Mirio might as well have stabbed him all over again. obviously this is intentionally being used as a lighthearted moment to briefly give the audience a breather before we wade back into the Todoroki drama; but at the same time it indicates that this name isn’t exactly going to be taken seriously by anyone who hears it in-universe. they are literally wincing upon hearing it skjlklhkgf.

lastly, none of the people closest to him -- Deku, All Might, Kirishima, or Shouto -- are even there to hear it. all of that build-up, all of that “Kacchan’s hero name will show us how far he’s come in his character development”, and then when it finally happens, the people who have had the most impact aren’t even there to partake in the moment. Shouto and Deku are busy dealing with an entirely separate plot and trying very hard not to be set on fire while Kacchan is out here providing comic relief.

because that’s really what this is, though. this is a joke. like, I don’t mean that in a pejorative sense; I mean that it is literally a joke. and so what you’re telling me is, if this really is his hero name, we waited 250 chapters and Horikoshi built up an entire character arc around it, only to have the end result be a joke panel that in the end was arguably not even the biggest thing that happened in the chapter.

like, idk, maybe there’ll be a flashback about it later after all’s said and done which will imbue it with more meaning as some have suggested. maybe Horikoshi will explain how it’s a childhood throwback name that Deku once picked for him, like that theory that’s been making the rounds. I’m not saying it won’t be possible to build on this after the fact. but it will be after the fact, all the same. as far as the initial reveal goes... this is it. the epitome of anticlimactic. a brief joke reveal mid-fight where everyone immediately goes “are you fucking serious” and he’s all “I WAS FUCKING SERIOUS” and falls down out of comedy lmao.

and so, to wrap this post up finally, basically the way I see it is that there are two possibilities here. either (1) I have been way overthinking this from day one and it was never really that deep and Horikoshi thought this would be an appropriate and funny conclusion to a plotline which in his mind was always meant to be mostly lighthearted, with the Jeanist stuff mostly just thrown in there to push Bakugou into picking an at least halfway-decent name in spite of himself.

or, (2) this isn’t going to be his final hero name either. this is instead the last hurrah of the “Lord Explosion Murder” part of that plotline, and after he’s laughed out of the room yet again he will mope and cross out this one as well, and Horikoshi will sit on it for another 500 chapters until he finally reveals it at the very fucking end of the series. like at this point I wouldn’t put it past him to wait until the very last page. I s2g, this man. but the flipside of it is that when that moment finally does happen, I fully believe it will be a moment that actually feels earned. it will feel right. it will feel like the moment we spent all that time waiting for. or at least that’s what I hope.

so anyway, those are my thoughts on it! tl;dr, while I like Dynamight as a hero name in and of itself, I don’t think it’s going to be endgame, mostly because nothing about that reveal moment actually felt right to me. and of course, it’s very possible that I’m completely wrong about this; it wouldn’t be the first time (Kacchan’s quirk says hello). but on the other hand fandom isn’t totally batting a thousand either (Ground Zero says what up), so hey. we’ll see!

[actuallylorelaigilmore]

lucifer s5 thoughts pt1

behind a cut so i can be as spoilery as i want:

5x01 - i’m so glad they brought back Mr. Said Out Bitch i kinda love his recurring arc

everybody is unspooling hard this season already which is interesting cuz s4 was one long bad spiral. linda’s doing it through helicopter parenting, amenadiel’s trying to superhero the world, dan’s a walking positivity meme, ella’s in heat for bad guys for unknown reasons, lucifer’s in a totally different timeline in hell, maze redirected all her feelings at chloe and chloe used maze to ignore her own

speaking of which, OUCH. chloe seems genuinely surprised that 1) maze could misread her signals and 2) that maze doesn’t take rejection well... chloe you’re a detective neither of these things should be a surprise

when lucifer whistled and chloe heard him i pressed both my hands to my heart because i am a sucker for love and this show gets me

lesley ann brandt raging out is a sight to behold but also maze is so alone my hearts breaks for her

this show still has the best soundtrack

damn i was really hoping that one reunion could be genuine and the Evil Twin wouldn’t show up until later :(

5x02 - also i wonder who else noticed the tiny viewer warnings for this season and had the word ‘suicide’ jump out at them like it was neon? i don’t like the foreshadowing of that one bit

this fuckin show really looks at its plot and goes ‘you know what we can’t forget this season? to use the evil twin’s arrival as a pretext for filming tom’s ass. just, the longest slow pan shot ever at his backside without a stitch of clothing. let’s see if we can hold it for a full thirty seconds. live your dreams everyone.’

‘a little white lie could be quite beneficial’ *grins creepily* ...does he think that’s charm? is that what he thinks he is, charming? cuz he’s quite visibly evil rn

listen watching chloe fall apart last season and not be able to trust lucifer or look at him was horrible but the flip side of that is suspicious chloe now. i know it won’t last but please, show, let me have this, i’ve never respected her and her trust issues more

‘you two are perfect for each other’ the only thing more fun than watching lucifer egregiously misunderstand everything linda says is watching chloe do it. linda i missed you, you try so hard and fail so much

lol this show is really leaning into the bryan cranston janitor rule. i wonder who the killer could possibly be, the four random people they’ve interrogated or sharon freaking osbourne

BITE THE HEAD OFF A BAT the sass in the writer’s room my gosh

oh okay i found this a lot funnier before i realized that she’s playing herself. meh, my headache has ruined my ability to do things like read nametags i guess

oh, maze. :( don’t get played by this asshole when your vulnerabilities already got preyed on by cain in s3. you deserve better than that

i’m waiting for the show to serve up a chloe decker Look™ this season but she’s wearing the bullet necklace :D and that delights me endlessly

this is SO gross and he’s SUCH a creep get your fucking hands off her

i love tom a lot i really do but i might hate michael even more than cain, the lying and the manipulation is so much crueler already

AMENADIEL REMAINS THE MVP OF THE WHOLE DAMN SHOW i’m not even a little bit surprised that he’s the first one to figure it out himself i was expecting nothing less 

‘deeply desperate, obviously, if he was reaching out to you’ DAMN chloe i’m so torn between feeling bad for maze that you’re kinda dense and mean as her friend lately and feeling ready to be pissed at maze if she lets you sleep with michael thinking he’s lucifer when maze knows just how wrong it would be to say nothing, you can see it cross her face

ohhhhh dude you have now messed with chloe, maze AND linda. if you come within ten feet of trixie i’m going to be wishing death upon you i s2g

I AM LITERALLY TEARING UP 

I AM SO PROUD OF CHLOE JANE DECKER

thank you, show, for letting her not be stupid this season she should never be the level of stupid she would have to be to believe this creep

‘you know that won’t kill me’ ‘yeah but it makes me feel better’ where is lauren german’s action movie? i want to watch it she’s got such a vibe 

5x03 - lucifer: my descriptions have made the perfect show...chloe: *trying to decide between punching him or throwing up*

‘i dunno, 30?’ MAZE AND LINDA all they do is bring me joy

okay happy!dan teasing lucifer reminds me how much i loved the actor on true blood and even thought that reminds me of nelsan ellis which makes me sad it also makes me really happy--dan was so painful to watch in s4 and i used to be such a fan of the actor playing him that it’s nice to remember why

5x04 - the year was 1946 YAY IT’S HAPPENING

i asked them to give me a chloe Look™ and they stuck her in 1940s menswear i couldn’t approve more

this episode is so incredibly silly i lost it at ella’s swagger down the alley...but i don’t care how silly it gets they gave me charlotte married to a very surly chloe and that + maze in a nightclub is well worth it

kevin alejandro is here in his suit of armor to remind everyone that playing Relatively Normal Guy Dan Espinoza is the very least he and his genius acting range are capable of, i love it

as soon as i realized amenadiel was the only one we hadn’t seen yet, i was waiting for this moment...hi melvin your 1940s accent is the best thing i have ever heard right alongside your car monologue

i honestly cannot decide what my favorite thing is about this absolutely insane episode but it might be the fact that it looks so noir but cannot be even a little noir at all because this is lucifer which is not a dismal show so instead it is just fucking hilarious and reminds me of clue 

this show MY GOD shirl & jack i can’t i’m incoherent at this point also i miss eve she brought so much girlkissing to lucifer please come back eve

‘not if they are going to be unbreakable.’ my heart just broke for maze all over again but even harder this time

goddamn i already identified with maze but that really hurt and also i’m really glad this season is letting her dig deeper, they laid such groundwork for her abandonment issues with her mom and i didn’t expect them to follow through on it so well

[sharpestlives]

do u have a fav song from anastasia?

i dont actually... i really love the show as a whole and while individual songs appeal to me i don’t think i could pick one as my favorite. i triiiied to narrow it down but i ended up just listing every song. even the songs im not super into within the show (crossing a bridge, close the door) are still really great songs, i just dont really think that they needed to be there. i think that uhhh. okay hm

rumor in st petersburg is such a bop and its a really fun introduction to the cast. the dmitri & vlad moments are very sweet and in character, and it really brings you into the moment

in my dreams just goes so hard for absolutely no reason. it is SUCH a good song and christy KILLS it

learn to do it makes me sooo happy like i cannot listen to it without getting a silly smile on my face

the neva flows. i dont know what to say. its so good. i fucking love ramin. its SO good. its really so good

my petersburg !! a v sweet moment between dmitri and anya. i enjoy it

once upon a december/a secret she kept drives me crazy. makes me feel insane. the fucking ghosts and then the . “i dont think you will” Its About Trust.

stay i pray you. ah. diaspora song. listen to it its good and makes me Feel emotion

i s2g we’ll go from there is so fucking catchy. also its fun bc its vlad being horny while his two acquired children have simultaneous breakdowns

still. again any gleb song is a good song but the INTENSITY in this song + the way its called back later? its just like. chef kiss.

journey to the past OKAY OKAY IT DOESNT HIT THE FIRST TIME I KNOW BUT AFTER A FEW WATCHES I PROMISE ITS LIKE A FUCKING TRAIN HITS U BC IT JUST . WORKS

paris holds the key is valid for the choreo and the dmitri solo. ;__;

crossing a bridge/close the door and technicaly wonderful songs but theyre really there to give christy and mary beth peil Moments.

land of yesterday . sure is imperialist but it sure does slap. ms countess lily is excused for beibg morally corrupt because shes fun

same as above fr countess and the common man. also theyre genuinely in love and also hate each other which is a very fun dynamic. they are straight homosexuals.

RAMINS LAND F YESTERDAY REPRISE FUCKS SO HARD IDK WHY IT ISNT ON THE ALBUM. ITS SO SEXY

in a crowd of thousands. H. would love to be in love. as a treat.

meant to be/quartet at the ballet was put in as a hate crime against me and nadia specifically. its bait and illegal to put SWAN LAKE IN THE MIDDLE OF UR SEXY ASS MUSICAL AND THEN HAVE THE THEMES AND CHARACTERS MIMIC SWAN LAKE. WITH ACTUAL SWAN LAKE CHOREO. and the END of quartet at the ballet is just ✈️

everything to win, or as ziska calls it: well behaved bottoms rarely make history

i actually dont like the press conference nvm ik its there so she can change but i dont care.

anyas everything to win. pleading face emoji i didnt know he mattered to me but now i can see he does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

still/the neva flows reprise? oh u mean the peak of theatre? whith the romanovs behind the window as anya and gleb stand off ? i hfdjksdnbfdhsjk

also the finale fucks . it just does. u know it does.

Wow they're really just leaving Bobby's truck along the side of the road huh

Jake is either insanely stupid or insanely brave - or both. That little girl didn't just move away from the door she fucking VANISHED and he decides to OPEN THE DOOR?????? BRO

God why are the children always the creepiest monsters

SINCE WHEN IS A DEMON DISPELLED BY SWINGING AN IRON POKER THROUGH IT LIKE A GHOST ARENT DEMONS SUPPOSED TO BE SOLID BECAUSE THEY INHABIT VESSELS?????

So now there's different kinds of demons, cool cool cool when the FUCK was this gonna be explained huh?

"I've seen that bell before -" fucking WHEN good god a little backstory would be GREAT i wish the writers would stop just flinging exposition and jumpscares at us and actually show that Sam has this knowledge for a REASON

Hey fuck the ENTIRE group of people involved with this script for giving us a canon lesbian and having her kill her own girlfriend offscreen and then having her be the first of the psychic kids to die in this episode - really taking bury your gays to a new level

God I knew it was coming but it's still sad to see the Roadhouse gone and knowing Ash and all those hunters were killed

Ava really is a very good actress like... damn.

God of course Dean signs his name as "D. Hasslehoff" what a fucking dork

Dean brushes off the pseudo-vision right away but like... I mean would it be that weird? His little brother is a psychic, after all. And Andy's brother Webber had the same powers as Andy - sure, they were twins, but still, i think Dean tries to brush it off a little too quickly

Good thing Bobby has the same encyclopedia in his head that Sam does lmao

Jake's great, honestly. That's a solid character right there and we've got, what, less than 10 minutes of screen time with him so far? I wish he could have stuck around.

"The size of what's coming - it's bigger than anyone's ever seen" Sammy you don't know the half of it

Ah and here we have the first of many instances of The Big Bad popping into Sam's dreams for a chat

"Well... there's other generations, but lets just worry about yours." Yeah hey do they ever go into that? There was that one baby that the boys saved ages ago, but seriously.... does this tangent ever get explained?????? Probably not

Ahhh finally we see the demon blood! Also I wanna point out that drinking something, even blood, does not mean it enters your bloodstream. "Does this mean i have demon blood in me?" no, Sam, you pissed it out a few hours after it happened. Literally.

:( poor Andy

Oooh Sam finally putting it together

How many psychic children were out there??? Like if three or four more psychic kids show up every few days - even if it's stretched out to every week - that's a hell of a lot of people over the course of 5 months. I mean, my math could be wrong here, but that's like... 70-ish people????? How many fucking kids did the demon bleed all over??????

DEUS EX JAKE

:((((( very unfortunate that Jake is going full "for the greater good" here

He just killed Ava with his bare hands and you really thought him putting down an iron bar was a show of good faith? Sammy.... you're an idiot.

WHY DIDN'T YOU PICK UP THE FUCKING KNIFE I S2G SAMMY, DEAN DEFINITELY TAUGHT YOU BETTER THAN THAT

>:(

God Dean just keeps rambling about how he's gonna fix Sam and my heart is BROKEN

Honestly I don't even care too much that Sam is dead bc 1) I know he gets better and 2) both boys have died so much i cannot bring myself to care, but the emotion in Dean's voice is palpable

"All Hell Breaks Loose, Pt. I" final thoughts: coming hard and fast on the heels of the Djinn episode, this one fucks me up. I do like Ava's mind games, and Jake's character is super interesting! I wish he was able to break free of the demon and just become a hunting buddy :(

OK HELLO, WE HAVE A HOTHOTHOT LEWIS SUBMISSION HOLY SHIT YA’LL ARE NOT READY FOR THIS ONE I S2G

Why is it that we attempt to hang onto something that we know we’d be better off without? Why are we scared of losing something that we don’t even really have? I’ve never quite figured it out. Some people will even go so far as to say, “I’d rather have someone who is around sometimes than no one at all.” Like, how could they not care to be the side dish? I mean..hello, coleslaw!

And…Hate to admit, but I would always be the coleslaw in most of my relationships…

Because the truth of the matter is, to have someone only sometimes is often harder than not having them at all. In those instances that you aren’t together, when you realize everything that you are missing, and the vapid emptiness hits you, the blackness encircles you. Like on those rainy afternoons when you aren’t curled collectively like a pair of parentheses on the couch, binge watching Netflix, allowing the day to melt away without the productive pressure of sunshine. Unable to touch or to adequately express all the emotions that were sorely impossible to describe using something as limiting as words; it makes the void even more black.

Yet, even despite this insane loneliness and all of my self-destructive tendencies, some of the best moments in my life have come from the ‘sometimes’ I can’t ever tell anyone about.

Still recovering from the end of a six-year relationship, I decided the best cure was a summer spent at the beach instead of dealing with the depths of my mind. I tried to fill that void in my life with a string of bland, drunken, mindless one night stands. Because in my world, in my mind, voids must be filled. And how do I fill them? I FUCK the pain away. Burying that pain into someone so brutally insignificant that they don’t even make a real dent in my memory.

But all that changed with Lewis Motherfucking Hamilton and his smooth-as-Tennessee-Whiskey moves.

My plan was to “hit it and quit it,” as they say, when I spotted his biceps from across the room at the little beach dive bar we were both drinking at. Yeah well, you know what they say: everyone has a plan until they get punched in the throat. And Lewis Hamilton was MY punch in the throat.

It’s not like I shouted out, “Hey there, you look like a bad decision waiting to happen. Come on over here and sit with me for a bit.”

Or maybe I kinda did. Only sitting wasn’t exactly what I had in mind as I watched the way he tousled his perfectly curly hair with one hand and how the dimples on his tanned cheeks ripple every time he smiled. It didn’t hurt that his well-fitting jeans hugged his ass like they were made just for him, making my freshly waxed pussy throb to the core. Even with his supposed girlfriend at his side, looking bored and uninterested as she flipped through her phone, I still couldn’t look away from him.

Sweet Jesus, I was in trouble.

“A beer from Mr. Fancy God over there,” the waitress said as she slid the amber bottle across the high top where I was sitting. My carefully deconstructed (and equally as carefully reconstructed) The Cure shirt hung off one shoulder to show off my tan lines, while my bronze legs lazily swung from the bar stool. He eyed me hungrily as I put the beer to my lips and sucked the cool liquid down. Biting my thick bottom lip, I lifted the bottle and gave him a wink. As I imagined myself sprawled out on his bed, pussy dripping wet, nipples erect, I licked my lips slowly, sending him the signal that I was down to fuck. When he tossed his phone number at me on his way to the men’s room, I knew it would all be downhill from there.

The flirty, late night text messages started immediately and escalated to facetiming, sexting and other such virtual debauchery for weeks. The anticipation of fucking him was a slow build to a climax that culminated in a well-orchestrated night together, holed up in my hotel room when his girlfriend was out of town.

I was nervous about meeting a stranger in a hotel room but I also felt like I’d known him for years through the constant communication we’d been having. To say I was looking forward to this night of sinful indulgence would be an understatement. I knew the girlfriend wasn’t going anywhere and that this would be a one-time thing at best, so my eyes were wide open going in. I was accepting it for what it was: fucking mind-blowing sex.

Arriving right on time, I opened the door and was met by those damn gorgeous dimples. “Well, hello, stranger. You coming in?” I asked, holding the door half open.

In two seconds flat, he dropped his small overnight bag and pinned me up against the now closed door. His fucking kisses melted me to my core. They were ‘press you up against the wall, I want to crawl inside of your skin and devour your soul’ kisses. His touch was like warm honey, his breath malty with beer. His body was hard and defined, and I scratched lines down his back, challenging him to give up all his secrets.

As I pressed a kiss to his temple, I grazed my fingertips along the outline of his hard cock straining against the material of his jeans. He sucked in his breath as I got down on my knees and teasingly alternated between licking and gently biting at his shaft through the material. Not wanting to taunt him for too long, I slowly undid his zipper as he undid the button. Grasping his hard cock with one hand, I guided it to my tongue and ran my soft, heavy tongue over the tip while gently tugging on his shaft. I swirled my thumb around the head, now wet with spit.

Popping him in and out of my mouth like a lollipop, he breathed in sharply. His hands found my nipples that were already hard under the sheer white tank top I was wearing without a bra. My denim cut-off shorts exposed just the barest edge of my tanned ass and slowly rode up into my pussy crease that was becoming wetter the more we kissed, my black lace thong teasing my ass hole. My eyes closed, I arched against the wall, and my chest pushed forward. I didn’t even realize that we weren’t kissing anymore, my lips and tongue still reaching. He growled a low, deep moan as his almost black-brown eyes focused on my breasts that were popping out of the tank top. His kisses were like crushed velvet covering my nipples and his tongue gently flicked against each one playfully.

“Fuck me,Lewis” I panted. But he just grinned and cupped one breast in each hand, pinching my nipples. I whimpered as the rush of pain was followed by a wave of pleasure. I audibly gasped as he popped the button and zipper of my shorts, feeling the rough material rubbing up against my freshly waxed pussy. Pushing me away from the wall and onto the bed, we became a tangled web of limbs, lips, throats, thirst. Molten lava with fingers clutching at what couldn’t be caught. My heart and clit both throbbed to the same rhythm.

Knowing he was close to coming, I held his cock tight with one hand and forced it up and down through the slick tunnel of my fingers, licking my tongue around the head, down the shaft and forcing it further into my mouth. As I felt his cock hit the back of my throat, my eyes began to water. I wanted him to fill me up in every wet, slippery orifice. Foaming saliva built at the corners of my mouth, the salty mixture of his pre-cum and our hot make out session seeping over my tongue, and I was in heaven. I rubbed my pulsing clit in small circles. Intense colors swirled behind my eyes as I stood up from the bed to mount him. All I could think of was his pulsing hard cock inside of me.

Grabbing my wrist, he pulled me back down onto the bed beside him. As he fumbled for a condom, my breath caught in my chest and my fingers slowly ventured down, under the black sheer fabric of my lace panties. I closed my eyes and two fingers caressed the lips of my slit as he clumsily unwrapped the condom. My hips lifted involuntarily. My fingertips teased and taunted circles around my clit while a ragged breath escaped my lips. My skin felt like hot silk under my hand as I fondled and rubbed, fingers slipping slowly inside. The weight of my desire became an electric current running through my body. Breath held and limbs quivering, I opened my eyes and a gentle moan escaped. We held eye contact. I had never felt so sexy. With a mischievous, half grin, I continued to stroke myself beneath my panties.

“Get those panties off.” His voice was low but the tone was firm.

I was being commanded, not asked. A wicked thrill ran through me, and I trembled. His eyes followed my movements as I inched the black lace thong slowly down my thighs. He moved closer and closed his eyes as he ran one hand up my leg, stopping just inside my thigh. I moaned at the rough trace of his weathered hand against my soft skin. He grabbed the sides of my panties and forced them down the rest of the way as I untangled my feet from them and watched him lift the lace to his nose.

“Fuck yes,” he said, almost under his breath.

I pressed my thighs together tightly as my clit throbbed. I wanted him to fuck me into next week.

“Keep going.” He stroked his cock, devouring the sight of my legs spread against the sheets.

“Spread them wider,” he ordered.

My pulse hammered in my ears as I opened my legs, spreading my thighs further apart. I rubbed myself methodically, allowing my fingers to explore, slowly gliding in and out, before tracing upward again, coated in the evidence of how much I needed him inside me. I smoothed the silky wetness over my clit, onto my smooth pussy lips.

“I love bald pussy,” he breathed appreciatively as he watched me rub my clit in slow circles.

Being like this for him, legs open, pussy exposed and gleaming wet while he stood there, cock in hand, turned the naughty factor up to 110 and then some. He ran his hand over my calves, between my thighs and wound himself between my legs. He shoved his fingers in. Then, suddenly, his cock slid deep inside, and I gasped, riding the waves of pleasure with each thrust.

Not wanting to cum yet, I had him lie on his back and I straddled him. I took him inside me slowly and deeply, moving in small circular motions at first and then grinding my wet pussy onto him as hard as I could. Moving faster and faster, my tits bounced with the rhythm I kept astride him, his hands on my hips. The muscles of his arms and torso flexed along with the motion, his dark skin shimmering with sweat. Grabbing my ass with his hands, he spread my cheeks wide and went even deeper inside. A moment later, he was coming inside me, exploding.

“I’m not done yet,” he growled as he moved down between my legs, kissing my inner thighs, his lips soft and hot. His tongue parted me, slickening my juicy pussy with his saliva. His tongue painted insistent swirls on my clitoris until I was gripping the sheets and moving my body up to meet him.

“Mmm, you taste so good,” he murmured, his fingers now joining his mouth, slowly gliding in and out, agonizing me. With the rigid tip of his tongue, he rubbed my clit over and over and over until I was panting for breath. Then he stopped.

His mouth hovered near my pussy, and he pulled back. My head pounded with blood, and I shifted restlessly. I wanted to come. I needed to come. Desperately.

He blew warm breath across my clit and began sucking and licking more urgently than before. Before I could register this new tactic, his mouth was back on me, his tongue back at me. Working me. Then I felt that rush, fast and hot, and the mounting energy as his urgent tongue fluttered and flicked, while his fingers darted in and out. All I could do was shut my eyes and arch back, shuddering, dying as I exploded with a new kind of pleasure. Moaning into the ceiling, his tongue lapped relentlessly at me. I pulled a pillow over my mouth to muffle my cries.

His lips, wet with my pussy juice, greedily found my mouth and I relished in the scent, the taste, the feel of him. The room smelled of our sex, musky and sensual. My mouth found his cock again and I lapped and sucked with abandon. Licking his balls, gently sucking each one. Then again, taking him fully into my mouth and down the back of my throat hole. His hips spasmed forward as he asked me to stop. When I refused, he grabbed my hair just hard enough to get my attention and send a fresh rush of wetness to my pussy.

“Can I fuck you in the ass, baby?” he asked

Without answering, I moved up to where he wanted me, his spit-slick cock standing straight up. He held it for me and I straddled him, eager to feel him everywhere. I sank down on him slowly and gasped as his member filled my tight hole until I was able to ride him up and down. Rubbing my wet, swollen, sensitive clit with one hand and raking my nails down his chest with the other, it was obvious he enjoyed the view as my tits bounced again in rhythm as I moved. I felt another hot rush as the waves of pleasure ran through my body for what seemed like the hundredth time and his orgasm met my own.

“That was the hottest fucking thing,” he laughed as I collapsed beside him, exhausted and stupidly happy.

Things in my life as of late:

today went by way too fast and I s2g I achieved fuckin NOTHING except a goofy shirt design but yeah it’s insanely frustrating to feel like you worked all day to get nothing completed

Speaking of said shirt I bought it for myself because I’m a narcissist and I’m gonna show y’all when it arrives and then make it an available design on my redbubble it’s dumb but it makes me happy

I’m debating if I’m gonna do art fight again this year??? Like it’s super fun but it’s a lot

Art feels so blehhhhh right now I can’t finish anythinggggg and it’s super frustrating BUT THAT’S ALWAYS MY ISSUE DAMN 

but also my hand feels... like out of shape? Like I need to do drawing workouts and I don’t want to I just want to draw all the things and I just cant for some reason 

I keep having the same conversation over and over where I’m like “I’m overwhelmed but I shouldn’t be!!! Why can’t I do all the things!!” and whoever I talk to is like “You should just step back for a bit!!! It’s okay to do that!!!” and I’m just like NO CANNOT DO THAT

which related to that I really need to cut my HHAJ updates to once a week because I straight up do not have time to do two comics a week but holy shit I don’t want to do that

which is dumb because I gain zero dollars for that and occasionally have a couple of people think it’s slightly entertaining so why the fuck do I put so much effort into a comic like that it’s not gonna get me anywhere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Apartment hunting is the worst and everything is expensive

The government is also the worst because they’re like “hey we didn’t take enough money from you so you owe us money now” and I said “cool can I connect my bank account and pay it in payments” and they’re like “sounds good” but then TODAY I got a letter saying “Why aren’t you paying us????” and so now I have to call the government to say assholes you idiots are the ones not taking my money when I told you where you could take it from I am very annoyed

also the government still thinks I live in my hometown WHICH I HAVE FIXED/TOLD THEM MULTIPLE TIMES I DO NOT and I got a fucking jury duty for that county??? bitch I’m not driving two hours south for jury duty I DONT LIVE THERE

I want to go to Pride next weekend but I don’t wanna go alone because I’ve never gone before but I also feel weird asking my friends to go even though it’s like... the way you have friends is by asking them to do things... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

so yeah moral of the story is I don’t know how to adult and everything is expensive so same as usual

[rigginsstreet]

this got SUPER long so its going under the cut but this is the f*lice rant i was talking about lmao enjoy! (full disclosure i also end up going on a fredsythe rant because i gotta, ok. yall gonna make me sit through this stupid ass storyline when a better one is RIGHT FUCKING THERE so yeah, im mad. fp jones also likes men get over it.)

Sorry but there's literally nothing new inventive shocking or compelling about a storyline where two grown ass straight MARRIED adults are pining over each other because they had some weird romantic connection nearly 30 fucking years ago that may or may not have resulted in a fucking teenage pregnancy that im sure NOBODY wanted like yall really out here wanting me to believe what? alice cheated on her boyfriend and got knocked up by a dude who represented everything she was trying to get away from? and she told hal the kid was fps but never told fp himself? because that makes all of ZERO FUCKING SENSE! even if they wanted to throw out “well alice and hal were broken up at the time” its still SO out of character for alice like i know she had her wild child serpent days but its not something she looks back on with fondness so why the HELL does anyone think its a good idea to set her up with the fucking LEADER of the entire GANG are you all sniffing glue?? and then theyre trying to sit here and vilify hal so that we root for alice to hook up with fp in present day? the fuck outta here im not about to sit and cheer on alice’s character regression. first of all yall need to stop getting mad at 17 year old hal for not wanting to be a father and handling this situation poorly he was a TEENAGE BOY i know yall think everyone needs to be pristine angels from birth but thats not how life works and second of all he has every right to be sketched out that his daughter brought forth her long lost brother to fill in the void polly left, especially when the first time hal sees chic hes fucking BLEEDING after being attacked for god knows what reason in hals mind like... im team hal on this one he’s the only one with some self preservation alice and betty about to get themselves killed i s2g all these dumb ass decisions are being made, which in itself is bad enough, but to make it so obvious that this is all being done to eventually prop up a ship that is the very definition of fan service, is beyond ridiculous and terrible writing. like i get it. madchen and skeet are hot and have chemistry (which...btw....literally all the parents have insane chemistry with each other but no focus on the boring obvious straight pairing i guess but oh do not worry i have more to say on that later) i get it. but what is the purpose of that if you cant write an interesting story? and dont get me started on how shoehorned this recent ~connection~ is like yes i admit in s1 i got vibes from them (which, stay on this blog for 5 minutes and you will soon realize i can romantically/sexually connect pretty much any pairing amongst the parents because, like i said, they all have insane chemistry and they all say weird shit to each other). but i cannot believe yall sat here and thought the whole sexual frustration comment after fp got out of prison or the “leave him” exchange felt authentic??? like is it me? am i the one in the twilight zone? somebody help me out here. alice and fp in s1 couldnt stand each other and now shes all joking about his sex life ?? fp almost started a huge fight during that dinner with her and hal and the kids and yet im supposed to believe he’s been pining after her all these years?? like maybe id have an easier time believing this shit if i hadnt seen how he interacts with fred (oh yes. we’re going there because im tired of this HETERO NONSENSE GOING ON ALL THE TIME IN TELEVISION WHEN THEYVE LITERALLY SET UP BETTER OPPORTUNITIES FOR SAME SEX RELATIONSHIPS IM IN A MOOD SO WE’RE GOING ALL OUT) but to close off this part of my rant (oh and i didnt even touch upon how gross itd be for betty and jughead to share a sibling lmfao but that should be self explanatory): there is literally no conceivable way for this shit to go down and not make me lose respect for alice (fp i can give a slight pass to on the front of he and his wife being separate, but even then if he goes after alice while she’s still with hal....you done fucked up). first of all, going after your daughters boyfriends/ex boyfriends father is weird. second of all, if chic is in fact hals son, then they need to work on bringing the family together. hal is not a lost cause. chic is creepy as hell if anything i can see him pulling some shit that brings betty hal and alice closer together but no that makes too much sense so the writers probably wont do that! so theyre either gonna continue to push hal out so that itll be “acceptable” for alice to run to fp, or hal has to literally just fucking die and then what? alice goes to fp in her time of grief? im gonna throw up. 

and now on to the gay shit

im supposed to compare f*lice and fredsythe scenes and come out thinking alice was the one he was in love with? bitch WHERE? fp has a sordid past with both alice and fred for different reasons. we dont know the full extent of what happened with alice (if anything but for the sake of predictability that i know to expect from a cw show, lets say they do) but given how they interact with each other we can assume it was bad. and we all know fred and fps history and how dark that got for fp (like i literally wrote up a whole thing about it if you want a link i’ll send it to you) and yet no matter the past, fp had probably his most lightest moment of the show with fred. he was willing to drop everything and help fred and soon as he asked (which, btw, fred didnt even ask for help. fp knew he was in trouble and that was it. thats all he needed and he was there for fred). THAT is love, ok. THAT is a relationship worth delving into beyond 2 friggen episodes in season 1. And yes this same storyline thats been given to f*lice with this whole adultery nonsense, but with fp and Fred, would actually be interesting because two gay kids in the early 90s actually have a valid reason for not being together and not ending up together. and then you add on that fps from the south side and fred the north, and that makes things even more complicated for them because then you can have a whole scenario of fp thinking hes not good enough for fred and ending things because of his own insecurities, his way of trying to push fred towards a better life... like THAT makes sense. even if fred and fp were never a thing and you just went with fp being in love with his best friend all these years and he could never have him (which still makes sense because i mean come on, freds casanova ways in high school with the ladies? fp sitting on the sidelines trying to be a supportive best friend but dying on the inside, never telling fred how he feels?) not to mention like half the serpents are gay as hell and there would be such a great story to tell for why all these gay south side kids end up in the same gang under fps wing, because he’s making up for his own shitty upbringing, he wants these kids to know someones looking out for them like...if the writers need plots and backstory I can give you them for free it really didn't take a lot of brainpower but no by all means tell me how the two ~straight~ kids who grew up on the same side of town under virtually the same circumstances, one of whom wanted NOTHING MORE THAN TO SHED HER SERPENT IMAGE AND CREATE A BETTER LIFE FOR HERSELF, and the other who keeps going on about wanting to put his family back together, had such a tragic backstory and its not just a blatant midlife crisis on both their ends. please. by all means. enlighten me. 😒

my pals on the lancecord asked me for some tips on cuban spanish so i thought i’d share them here too for all you lance writers. i’m a cuban voltron fan who doesnt want to live in fear of bad spanish in nearly every damn fic and im trying to be the change i want to see in the world. so feel free to message me if you have any questions about lance’s culture bc this is nowhere near being comprehensive at all.

lets get into the stuff google translate can’t teach u!

i don’t know anyone under the age of 60 who says “dios mio.” lance definitely would not, unless he is doing an impression of his abuela.

things that sound more natural than dios mio: ave maria, ay dios, por dios, AY POR DIOS

more commonly we exclaim “coño!” for anything. shock/anger/awe/etc. if the reaction is negative, it’s just coño. if the reaction is positive, we drop the first syllable and draw it out like “‘ñoooooo”

we exclaim “pinga!” or “cojone!” or “pinga cojone!” as a negative reaction more commonly than any translations of omg too

“de madre” is something we usually exclaim as a negative reaction. it can be yelled or sighed or grumbled. usually has a frustrated or incredulous connotation

“wepa!” is a sound we make as a positive exclamation.

we say “‘ueno” like the verbal embodiment of ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (it’s bueno with the b dropped)

other things that sound really stiff for cubans to say is like, “hola, como estas?” i mean, you say it to people you’re not on a casual level with. to friends/family these sound more natural:

“que bola asere” is how we greet our close friends

“que bola” or “que vuelta” is how we say hey

“oye” is hey! but not as a greeting, as an exclamation. something you would say before a greeting or on its own when surprised/offended/trying to get someone’s attention/etc

common insults: cabron/cabrona, mojon, comepinga, comemierda

common pet names for anyone: flaco, nena, mojon, mi socio, corazon

“asere” is our word for “bro” that no other country uses (1000% what lance calls hunk)

we also have a tendency to call our family members by their relation+their name, such as “my Tio Jimmy called” or “Abuela Carmen is making food.” i think this is when we have big ol families and just saying tio or abuela isnt specific enough

also this isnt spanish but i s2g so many bilingual cubans i know use the word “fire” almost constantly to describe something awesome. so i think thats a small cultural thing that communicates lance is cuban without having him speak spanish. (ex. “omg that’s fire” “hunk makes fire tacos” “pidge is fire at fixing stuff” “can you play that fire song?”)

now here’s a bunch of stuff that’s just my opinion

I think it’s most in character for Lance to drop Spanish words only one or two at a time into English phrases, since that’s how he uses it in canon (“Hasta la later, Keith!”). A couple of quick examples off the top of my head -

tremendo/tremenda - an adjective for huge. “You’re being tremendo sore loser, but okay.”

todito/todo - means everything. you can use them one after the other for extra drama. “I forgot todito, todo, about calculus immediately after passing it.”

These sound like really natural ways to drop Spanish into conversation without being forced if you keep it to a minimum. I aint here to tell u how to write your lance but i beg you - Please show restraint and don’t try to use all of these tips at the same time!!

I recommend following latin internet personalities (like jaxxgarcia or mr. red) to pick up their Spanglish phrasing if you’re really into that. please don’t try to make up your own. it’s never as cute as you thought.

if you’re writing full on spanish for more than a word or two, please do not ever make Lance speak it “accidentally” (or even worse, on purpose) to someone he knows doesn’t understand the language. that’s really rude and alienating and it’s so against lance’s character to isolate himself from others like that when he speaks fluent english. 

other times Lance can toss a spanish word in without sounding forced is if he’s namedropping cuban things! Try looking up some of our 

food (ropa vieja, pan con lechon, arroz con leche)

drinks (materva, iron beer, malta), 

films (juan of the dead, azucar amarga)

or music (celia cruz, marc anthony, juanes*) and have lance mention them by their spanish name if the topic comes up. 

*not all of these musicians are cuban, but they’re some of the most popular amongst us. i’m simply naming artists i think lance is most likely to enjoy considering his age and personality.

speaking of music, we have very specific dance styles that are pretty cool and almost mandatory to learn at a young age. cubans in general love to party, and to host large family gatherings which easily morph into parties, and basically any social event seems awkward if there’s no one dancing at any point. 

what I’m trying to say is Lance definitely knows salsa or merengue moves.

I don’t love to party and I’m not a good dancer and I don’t like dancing, but I know salsa anyway because I had to be in the environment my whole life. always exceptions, but the majority of cubans grow up knowing how to dance and it looks more or less like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLHP8hl7GfM

(no offense, but you’re a fool if u wrote a dance au and didn’t have lance whip this out. i purposely looked for videos that reflect what average people dance like, but professional salsa is insanely cool)

and one last opinion for the road:

Voltron takes place in the future, so I like to dream of Lance being born in a world where Cuba’s free from communism. If you’re doing a Voltron AU that takes place nowadays, please don’t write about Lance’s experience in Cuba if you aren’t familiar with what it’s like to live under a regime like that. It’s very bleak and textbooks don’t cover half of the fucked up things that those who live there actually have to go through.

Lance could have been born in Cuba, but raised somewhere else. Miami would be my recommendation because it’s our second homeland and it means he would have been raised surrounded by Cuban culture without the governmental oppression. But Cubans are absolutely everywhere, so it’s equally believable that Lance’s family could have immigrated to Pawnee, Indiana. Even in Voltron canon, I think it’s likely Lance moved to America at a young age because he clearly has a native fluency in English.

edit: I have a cuban things tag now if you’re interested in finding out more cultural details!
