#underrated villain TO ME

[korrasamibottles]

Unalaq is such a funny character honestly like he's such a slippery bitch. Manufactures an incident that gets his older brother banished so he can be chief✅️ Lets the rest of his anarchist polycule take the fall for a plot he was very much involved in✅️Helps imprison them as if he had absolutely nothing to do with any of it✅️ Stirs the pot and inflames tensions between Korra and Tenzin/her dad so he can manipulate her for his own ends✅️ No one was plotting and scheming like him!!!! Nobody!!!!!!!

Week after week i have something to say about Dr. Chalothon and how awesome he is as a villain. And this week is no different.

He is not offensively appearing in lots of scenes that would become 'noisy', as if they were rubbing it in our faces that he is evil and he is plotting. Would like to see more scenes of him, for sure. But bet we'll be seeing more as more is revealed about his identity. But i'm liking this pace.

In the series for those around him he is not obviously bad, but still does harm/deceives in terms of achieving what he wants. For example, years have gone since he met Tharn and Yai (and possibly those closer to them) and neither suspects him (apart from Phaya). And i am sure he has been getting what he wants in his evil plans. And this plans are not love related, i bet. He is bad to the core and that 'i won't let you take him away from me' is not related to Phaya dating or not Tharn. It can't be that simple.

Heng is doing an amazing job. His acting is superb, from the facial expressions (that snake like facial expression!!!), to his body language and the voice tone. For example, they change from interacting with Phaya vs with Tharn. And in those changes we can see he is a predator and for years the prey has been Tharn. But he is like a sly but rapacious creature. He has been consuming slowly but effectively and with this lust for whatever he wants. It is poetic i am on cloud nine.

Underrated trope: when you injure and/or permanently scar the villain and they fall head over heels in love with you ✨

Embarrassingly enough I had a Sh3Rl0ck phase but I didn’t care for J0hnlock….bc I only cared for Moriarty m. But I think it’s funny how the fandom made up Moran for the bbc vers. Which lead me to I reading a fanfic about Moriarty in his 20s and the author made up a sailor character…..and the author is still writing a sequel. At this point, it’s fiction……you know what I mean? Too bad A.Scott puts his whole pussy into Moriarty. Because it is almost original work lol.

the fact I can’t get away from mcu mysterio while trying to google search mysterio in general for various costume designs even when specifying ‘comics‘ and doing the whole ‘-mcu‘ thing is..

..please I just want to see this man’s funky costume designs from various comics. I don’t want to see the FFH costume, as cool as the cape is.

I may or may not have started to hyperfixate VIOLENTLY on a game about a villain turning a wizards girlfriend into a hamburger

[sapphire-heart-tippy]

I thought I'd go ahead and share my headcanons and head-backstory for Vanilla Ice! I've visited his wiki multiple times and there's not that much on there so I went ahead and made stuff up heheh (keep in mind I will not be angry or upset if you don't share the same/similar hcs, this is all kind of personal to me anyway ^^")

• Vanilla was given up for adoption as a baby because his parents couldn't take care of him

Edit: My pronouns have changed to he/him and xe/xem only, and I am more masc now! The sapphire heartverse fic is finished and the story below has been changed drastically!

[The Sapphire Heartverse takes place in modern times because it's a nonsensical universe where all the characters are in the same place at the same time. However, these headcanons are also for the 80's Vanilla]

• His life in the orphanage was very difficult. The caretakers didn't like him or any of the other children. They were very neglected and abused. The caretakers would make him do chores until he passed out.

• Vanilla's real name is Ezekiel. "Vanilla" was a nickname given to him as a child by a woman who wanted to adopt him. She brought him icecream one day and he wouldn't want to have any other flavor but vanilla, he was a picky eater enough as it is. He had it all over his face and was having the most fun he'd ever had in his life. The woman thought he was the sweetest thing in the world so nicknamed him "Vanilla Icecream". Adoption can be a difficult process and just when he was about to be adopted, she was murdered while getting mugged. The caretakers made fun of him for mourning her and things got even worse after that.

• Vanilla has similar trauma to what I've gone through and that's all I'm going to say. This, plus all the other abuse and neglect, caused him to be extremely clingy and willing to do anything for affection. He felt numb and agony at the same time.

• At times it felt like Cream was his only friend. Cream is the physical manifestation of the endless void in his heart. No matter what or how much Cream consumes, he is still starving and cannot be satisfied, much like a prita from folklore. This shows how much Vanilla is starving for affection of any kind. [I'm not entirely sure canonically if he was born with his stand or if he got shot with the stand arrow. I've seen that in the game, Heritage For The Future, when Alessi turns him into a child, Vanilla still has his stand and he looks absolutely adorable. This could be canon or could be strictly for the fight. I also do not have access to HFTF at the moment, so all I have to go off of is Google searches.]

• Vanilla got kicked out as soon as he became a legal adult. He was homeless for a while until he worked up enough money to be able to bathe and eat better and get new clothes. Vanilla found out about Dio and how he could pay good money in exchange for a live-in servant. Dio knew right away that Vanilla was the one.

• Vanilla lived there for a while and became a very very loyal servant. He was paid well and got to eat, drink clean water, and a warm place to sleep. Vanilla devoted his life to serving Dio and finally felt that void in his heart be filled. He showered Dio with love and did everything he was told. Vanilla fell head over heels in love with Dio.

• Dio would praise him, compliment him, rub his head as Vanilla kneeled, and of course, they would both engage in adult activities. Dio could count on Vanilla to do anything and everything asked or commanded.

• Vanilla was the maid, the cook, the guard dog, he was pretty much a caring house husband for Dio and he loved every second of it.

[Sapphire Heartverse crossover]

! Some things have been altered in the fanfic. The fanfic is the true canon. !

• Everything changed when Dio wanted a live-in commissioner to draw and paint pictures of him whenever he pleased.

• Vanilla reacted neutrally to Tippy at first, but... Dio started praising that boy more often than he would with Vanilla. Poor Vans felt so jealous and upset and strongly disliked Tippy and thus the petty rivalry was born

• One day, Dio commanded Vanilla to protect Tippy and guard him with his life because he didn't want anything to happen to his precious little commissioner. Vanilla felt like he was going to scream!!

• Tippy wasn't very thrilled with this idea either. In fact he would use his stand, Sapphire Heart, frequently to get away from situations he didn't want to be in. The power is called invisibreak.

• That little blue haired rascal would often pull pranks, cause trouble, mildly vandalize things, steal candy, and has even made friends with Jonathan Joestar's disembodied head in the fridge.

• Vanilla was stressed out and exhausted from all of the annoying antics. He decided to give Tippy a good scolding, but the blue haired menace disappeared using invisibreak. Vanilla thought that Tippy could teleport, but.... He turned around and saw them lying face down on the ground completely unconscious.

• Vanilla was confused at first but then he started to panic when they wouldn't wake up. He listened to their chest and they were still breathing, their heart was still beating, everything was fine. Vanilla picked them up and carried them to a couch in hopes that everything would be okay and Dio wouldn't be upset with him.

• When Tippy came to, Vanilla asked frantically what the hell just happened and why did they pass out. Tippy explained that sometimes when they turn invisible and intangible for too long, they lose so much energy they pass out. It clicked for Vanilla. When he used to use Cream to move around, he would pass out too.

• Vanilla decided to train Tippy on how to use their stand better. Dio caught them both training and told Vanilla it's a good idea to teach Tippy more about his stand and to train him to fight.

• Over time, Vanilla would train Tippy but always win because they just didn't want to fight. Vanilla has even physically pinned them down before, and it was met with laughter. One day Tippy got bold and accidentally sliced off Vanilla's right bang with Sapphire's diamond spear. Oh, Vanilla was pissed.

• For quite some time it was Vanilla being fed up with Tippy's pranks and jokes, and Tippy pranking or running away from Vanilla after he had caused mischief.

• Though.... As much as Vanilla didn't want to admit it, protecting and watching over Tippy has been the most fun he's ever had in his life!

• One day Tippy got sick and tried to play it cool. Vanilla wasn't having any of that, he made sure they were resting in bed, drinking fluids, and ate. Vanilla enjoyed fussing over Tippy, even when they told him he didn't need to.

• They have always been foils for each other. Vanilla is more strict and serious while following all the rules to the letter, while Tippy is more rebellious and chaotic and always wanting to crack a joke out of nowhere. But together they are unstoppable

• Dio had experimented on them using a fusion spell. That turned them into Blue-Raspberry Snowcone, or Razz for short. He is the fusion of Vanilla and Tippy and is extremely powerful but extremely unstable and could accidentally hurt himself if not careful. (I'll go into detail about that one day)

• After a while, something happened. Vanilla couldn't hear a peep out of Tippy and was wondering what was going on. Soon he found them silently crying in the hallway. He couldn't even tell they were crying until they looked up at him. Vanilla's heart shattered, he's never seen Tippy cry before. They talked it out and Vanilla started to like them a lot more after that.

• Soon Vanilla developed strong feelings towards Tippy, but hated the fact he did. Vanilla had the biggest crush on that boy and couldn't handle it

• When some people started making fun of Tippy behind his back, Vanilla became enraged and scared them off. He soon grew more protective of that young man, more than he would ever think possible. Vanilla used to do the bare minimum of protection, but now he's always on guard.

• Vanilla will put his arm out to make sure Tippy doesn't go near danger, he instinctively steps in front of them to shield them, he opens things for them, he reaches off the top shelf for them, he does anything he can to make sure they're safe and don't get hurt.

• All the other agents started to notice that Vanilla would smile a lot more and the way he would look at Tippy. Even Dio noticed and he totally shipped it oh my gawd-

• Everyone knew about Vanilla's crush but Tippy. Well, about that... Tippy actually vented to Jonathan about having a crush on Vanilla waaaaay back then. Jonathan would listen to Tippy talk constantly about Vanilla, while being carried around the mansion or sitting on the desk where he worked.

• Tippy would tell Jonathan everything. How he thinks Vanilla's cute, he likes the fact he trips over his own feet, how pretty Vanilla's hair is, how he can't look him in the eyes because he thinks they're so pretty, how he likes the way he laughs, how good Vanilla is at using his stand, how he protects him, how talented he is at drawing as well, how tall he is, how muscular, how he never breaks a promise, Vanilla's hobbies including making his own heart shaped jewelry. Tippy went on and on to Jonathan about how cool he thinks Vanilla is and how he really likes him... And that's why he keeps messing with him, pulling pranks or causing mischief for his attention, and trying to make him laugh.

• So one day, Vanilla decided it would be a good idea to put this to rest and tell Tippy how he really feels. He couldn't exactly do it so he just asked to hang out at the mall instead heheh!

• It was a date... They even touched hands on accident and it was so awkward, their faces were hot. Vanilla noticed Tippy was blushing very much and had hope. They both went somewhere a bit more private and Vanilla confessed his feelings... Tippy tried to say that he likes him back but it came out weird. In the heat of the moment, Tippy pulled Vanilla by the shirt and kissed him. Vanilla was shocked at first but he soon gave a passionate kiss back.

• That's about it for now!

Places you should add to your little town/city in your fantasy world!!

Post offices. Wild, I know. But give me the unhinged kind. Pingeons and little postal dragons all over the place. You enter. The most disgusting smell fucking assaults your nostrils. You know what it is. Letter in hand, you go up to the counter. The postal worker is just a slightly bigger pigeon. You shed a tear.

PLAYGROUNDS!! Create the most dangerous kinds of playgrounds, the ones suburban moms would TRIP if they ever saw one. Monkey bars that are way too tall, swings that go full circle... The metal slide stays the same, it's already painful enough.

PARKS!! MAKE IT ALIVE!! Show people going on walks, reading beneath trees. C'mon most of them are already hundred years old (And are going to die after that CR 15 creature wrecks the town) anyways!! Show couples and picnics, show a family enjoying the sunday, give me someone picking flowers for their loved ones.

A bakery! Do you know how much these places are underrated? And do you know how much plot potential they have? Every good story starts with food poisoning or granny's recipe! Give me a place your players/readers are going to treat like home and, for once, it's not a tavern or a guild.

Government buildings! Give me a town hall that has a kilometric line in front of it. Give me a registry that is as old as this town. Give me police stations! Give me courtrooms! Make one of your players get arrested and now all of the party has to go through burocracy like a bunch of normal people!

(Who am I kidding? You don't need to make them get arrested. They are going to do that for you.)

Touristic attractions! Give me a full-on statue of the country's leader! Give me museums! Give me streets, ruins and whatnot that attract thousands of tourists everyday! Give me an annoying city guide that tries to get the party's attention everytime!

Magazine stands! Magazines don't exist? Newspaper stands! From the Queen's Journal to the most questionable new piece of Fox's Tailtracker, you have it all! Make your players doubt what's actually happening, sprinkle a little fake news... Or is it fake at all?

...Toy stores. OK HEAR ME OUT. Make magic toys; miniature skyships that actually fly, metal toy dragons that expel fire, little wands that make little light spells, wooden creatures that can move and make noises... Make children happy! And your players too because they will waste their money on these stuff.

Instrument store!! Make your bards happy with special instruments or just weird ones! Give me a battle in one of those that is just filled with funny noises and the worst battle soundtrack ever!!

Not exactly a place but... Cleaning carts!!! Show me people cleaning the streets, picking up the trash, cutting trees!! Make the town look clean!! Give me an old man that is really proud of his work!!!

(or ways to make your players feel even worse when the villain destroys the town later on :) )
